“Hi All, Wanted to contact you all to say a huge thank you to your club for hosting our team, and in particular to John, Ian, Iain, and Grahame for lookng after us. It was an absolute pleasure and a privilege to meet you and spend some time with you. I was just sad we couldn’t spend some more time with you. I’ve added your page as a favourite so I can keep an eye on what’s happening over there. Thanks again, take care and all the very best to every one of you!!”

ROTI Rotarians On The Internet

by

ROTI is world wide and a wonderful place to learn about how Rotary works around the world and in your own club.  This map shows where we are located and how many ROTIans in each country.

ROTI’S WORLD (Thanks to ROTIAN and Canadian Chip Ross.) Zoom out to get the whole world.

ROTI is a Rotary International fellowship and the mission of ROTI is to apply modern information technology to enhance Rotary service, fellowship and knowledge, and to use Internet communications to further world understanding and peace.

ROTI members are in a special position to develop acquaintances. With members from over 100 countries, friendship and acquaintance has taken on a whole new meaning and concept. ROTI members are in a position to further world understanding in a way none have ever experienced before.

Email has now become the standard means of communication between Rotary International staff and the hundreds of Districts throughout the world.  Rotarians  now use email to communicate with their members, distribution of club bulletins, establish Projects, Matching Grants, Group Study Exchange planning, and reporting to our District and Rotary International.

ROTI members have led the way in showing the rest of Rotary how Internet communication has increased the speed and efficiency of our all our programmes.

Come join us at ROTI and be a part of this new adventure!  IT’S FREE!!!!!

Just about all the people in the following photos are members of ROTI and we meet at Rotary International Conventions around the world.  Next stop Bangkok.

GSE Team from D1010

“District 1010 Scotland North covers some of the most beautiful and famous landmarks in the world such as Eilean Donan, the most photographed Castle in the world.  We therefore hope that by navigating through this site you may be able to find a little bit about our District, our Rotarians and the work we do locally, nationally and internationally literally every day of the year.”

Eilean Donan Castle

The GSE Team from D1010 only had a few days with us however we had a lot of fun with them and took them around our Shire culminating in a Mayoral reception at the Coolamon Shire Council Chambers.

District 9700 Conference at Young

by

Thank you to our District Governor Ian Simpson and his wife Jean Simpson for an excellent conference in Young.  Also many thanks to the Rotary Club of Young for all their hard work in organising the conference.  Some very good speakers and a great band on the Saturday night.  However the best part as always was fellowship and that was abundant and catching up with fellow Rotarians is always a high light of any conference.

Here are some photos of the weekend in Young thanks to PDG John Egan for these photos.

Busy Rotary Week

by

 

It has been a very busy week for Rotary at Coolamon with the District Conference and the visit of the GSE Team from Scotland.  I will upload stories on all the fun times we have had over the past 7 days as soon as I recover!
