Our Last Posting - District Changeover




Last night District 9940 held its Changeover in collaboration with the Rotary Club of Levin's, the home of DGE Deb and Neville Gimblett, Changeover.  This was a great occasion for us to reflect back on the year that was.




We started the year by challenging clubs to Push Boundaries an
d Make Change Real - many clubs took up this challenge and it is great to see some clubs changing and growing.  Along with any change it is important to remember the core theme of Rotary, Service Above Self, and our core values; Fellowship, Diversity, Leadership, Integrity, and Vocational.  We were pleased to see the return of the GSE/VTT exchange this year and two Rotarians attend the Peace Forum in Hiroshima, who took the Peace Cranes that many clubs had made to the Children's Peace Monument in Hiroshima. 



Our lasting memory of the year will be the people that we met on our travels and of the great work that they do in the community and for Rotary, and of the clubs and their commitment to our great organization.





As we look back we wish to thank everyone who have assisted us through the year and made us feel welcome as we have travelled around District.

We are looking forward to a rest and travel before we see what challenges Rotary will offer us in the future.

To DG Deb and Neville, we wish you a great journey on your year ahead and to Anthony and Nicky, Simon and Brad all the best in your planning ahead.


And so from Christine and I it is a big thank you and good bye for now, we will catch up again soon.




Christine and Graeme
