Call for Volunteers
District 5110 has a long history of outstanding leadership development and volunteer commitment at the international, zone, district, and club levels. This year, we have an opportunity to reorganize and revitalize the District Training Team. The goal is to create a team of 5 to 10 Rotarians, with a District Trainer or Training Team Chair. The commitment is for one year, with the hope that each member will be willing to continue in the role for another year or two or more as continuity is desired. The District Trainer is a member of the District Leadership Team and the District’s representative to the Pacific Northwest PETS training committee. The Trainer/Chair position is targeted to be a three-year term. The team will assist in establishing the curriculum for the annual Pre-PETS training, the elements for the Club Training Assembly and various other leadership training opportunities that become available. A description of the roles are available if requested.
Please send your name and contact information to DGE Jim (dgjim2324@gmail.com) at any time if you are willing to assist providing the best training curriculum to our current and future Club Presidents. You may also provide the name and/or contact information for individuals that may have interest in serving the Rotary family in this manner.
