Innovate and Inspire Rotary: Spring Edition and District Grant Seminar
Our Spring Edition will bring Rotarians together for another powerful day of learning, collaboration, and preparation. The day will also include the District Grant Seminar, making this an essential date for clubs that plan to pursue district grant funding and expand their community impact.
Strong clubs do not happen by accident. They are built by Rotarians who continue learning, remain open to new ideas, and bring renewed energy back to their members. These events are opportunities to strengthen leadership, increase engagement, share best practices, and position our clubs for continued growth and success.
Please place these dates on your club calendars, include them in upcoming board and club discussions, and begin identifying the members who should attend.
Registration information and additional event details will be announced soon, so watch your email and District 7280 communications.
Let’s continue to learn together, lead together, and build Rotary clubs that people are excited to join and proud to serve through.
Yours in Rotary service,
Aaron Sines
District Learning Facilitator
