September is New Generations Month!

Well, as my summer months come to an end it’s time to ramp up the Rotaract year with new ideas, engaging speakers, service projects and fabulous fellowship!

Are you a Rotaractor here in District 5050 or abroad? Have you reached out to a local Rotary club, Rotarians or anyone in General to let them know about what Rotaract is or what we do? I challenge you to engage these groups and inform them of the exciting things that you and your club are doing this coming year.

Did you know that as a Rotaractor you are more than welcome to visit any Rotary club at any time? I’ll post some of my Rotary visit experiences here in following updates. Other clubs are fun to visit for a number of reasons; you get to know other Rotarians from the area who don’t make it out to the larger functions, you get to see what other clubs do to keep their meeting fresh and fun, and you get to inform everyone about us as a group. It’s all too easy. And you ususally get a meal out of it (which you will likely have to pay for, but whatever, it’s a meal out).

If you would like to attend a meeting anywhere but are a bit reserved to go it alone, just let me know. I’ll join you or rally a group of us together to make an evening out of it.

Fun, yes?

Have a great New Genereations month, I look forward to seeing everyone out and about!

#RACtalk on July 19th, 2012

If you are available on the morning of July 19th, 2012 between 7:30am and 8:30am, you are encouraged to head over to Twitter to check out the latest international conversation on what it takes to make great Rotaract meetings.
These are awesome opportunities to not only listen in on what others are doing to make their clubs great but you are able to engage in real-time conversations with Rotaractors from around the globe and RI itself! Many of the “major players” in Rotaract tune into these meetings, many of which have been members of very active and successful clubs for upwards of 10 years.

You do not need a Twitter account to follow along, however you will need one if you wish to engage in conversation. To follow the conversation simply go to Twitter and search #RACtalk. This will pull up any and all conversation on that subject matter. It’s as simple as that!

These meetings typically happen every couple of weeks to once a month so you’ll be able to chime into some sort of Rotaract talk through Twitter, or you can go back to old #RACtalks by looking at older posts within that search!
Hope to see you there!

The #RACtalk chat was really great… very informative.  If you are interested in what took place in this #RACtalk or any of the previous ones hitting a vast number of topics, check out Rotaract on Storify for highlights from those discussions!
