At last Monday’s Meeting I gave an overview of the seminar on ‘The Rotary Brand’ I attended last Sunday. Together with over seventy other Rotarians from three Districts we explored and navigated how to best use the Brand Centre at MyRotary.org. The Keynote Speaker was Michael Sharp, and he emphasised the importance of maintaining our Rotary Brand.
One suggestion I thought particularly apt was that each Rotarian should have a 3 second answer when asked, “what does Rotary do?”
A possible answer is, “Rotary Helps People, and Rotary gives me purpose!”.
Past District Governor Harold Sharp gave Cyril Clark a Very Special ‘My Hero’ Rotarian lapel pin. Well deserved Cyril, wear it with pride.
