When we began our training to be District Governor we knew that the awards process for 2016-17 would be delayed because of the change in the ending date for earning awards. We had no idea that it would be November before we received the last of the awards from Rotary International. We are now able to report to the District the amazing number of clubs that received awards for the 2016-17 Rotary Year.
Over a year ago we spoke to all the clubs and reminded them of the importance of using the Club Planning Worksheet and Club Central to record and track the many activities in which they were involved. Here are the results.
