The District Assembly (DISTAS)
Incoming District Governor Emma “Ems” Nava has announced that there will be a District Assembly (DISTAS) for Panay clubs on May 17, 2008, 8:00 A.M., at Belle Terrace, Amigo Terrace Hotel,
The annual district assembly is the major leadership training event in each Rotary district of the world. In view of the annual turnover of Rotary leadership each July, special effort is required to provide the 27,000 club leaders with appropriate instruction for the tasks they will assume and help them develop a good grasp of their duties in advancing Rotary’s program of service. It is usually held after the Presidents-Elect Training Seminar (PETS) and before 1 July.
The purpose of the district assembly is to develop Rotary club leaders who have the necessary skills, knowledge, and motivation to lead an effective club. Participants include the president-elect and the incoming leadership team for the club, including: 1) Club secretary, 2) Club treasurer, and 3) Club committee chairs.
The district assembly offers motivation, inspiration, Rotary information and new ideas for club officers, directors and key committee chairmen of each club. Some of the most experienced district leaders conduct informative discussions on all phases of Rotary administration and service projects. The assembly gives all participants valuable new ideas to make their club more effective and interesting. Usually eight to ten delegates from each club are invited to attend the training session.
Another important feature of a district assembly is a review by the incoming district governor of the program theme and emphasis as well as service goals for the coming year. Let us show our support for IDG Ems Nava as we Make Dreams Real this coming Rotary Year by attending the coming DISTAS.
