GOVERNORS       GOVERNORS ELECT TRAINING SEMINAR for us, 2019-20

ELECT           District Governors was wonderfully organised at Chennai
                from 02 - 07 October 2018 for 6 days. We have been
                trained by Rotary Legends and RI President, Barry Rassin

TRAINING        how to lead the district. This seminar was very useful
                to District Governors and their planning for the year
                2019-20. Me and Latha met our counterparts and their

SEMINAR         spouses, RI Directors and this is an interesting experience
                for us. We got more and more knowledge about Rotary
                and motivated by the faculties. From their words I came
                to know the effective pre planning is a must for running
    @ CHENNAI   the district in a successful way. Our RI Directors Elect
                Kamal Sanghvi and Bharath Pandya had given wonderful
                guidance and speech. It is my opinion that a District
                Governor of a Rotary District is really self motivated
                experience for our carrier as well as somewhat we have to
                serve the community. Me and Latha are fortunate to lead
                our District 3202, one of the vibrant districts in the world.
