2 Meeting No 1964 Tuesday 3 rd October 2017 RI President Ian H.S. Riseley District Governor Don Ripper Assistant Governor Bill Degnan Club President Andrew Bradley PRESIDENT S COLUMN Last week we had the pleasure of hosting District Governor Don Ripper and his wife Jude. Don updated us on the situation with membership both worldwide and in our District as this is a key issue for Rotary International and our current International President, Ian Riseley. Whilst the statistics are a little grim, they are vindication for our club s decision to take a bit of an unorthodox approach for this year (and probably the next) to rejuvenate membership, both in terms of the enjoyment of new and existing members and obviously building our club numbers. To summarise, we are implementing a three step approach, 1. Improve the membership experience, 2. Communicate to our community about our club and our service projects and 3. Mentor and look after our new members to improve retention. At the current time, we are focusing on step 1 and I have to say that Catherine, Kerry and Ted are doing a great job in facilitating this. This week we have our own John Castle giving us a presentation on his recent Variety Club bash rally, I m sure it will be most entertaining. Partners are welcome but please let Secretary Andrew know if your partner is attending so we can arrange to have our meal outside the meeting room if numbers are too high. I look forward to seeing you all there. Keep our theme for this year in mind, Rotary: Making a Difference! Rotary Theme for : Rotary: Making a Difference. Kind Regards ANDREW BRADLEY President
