Introducing our new District Awards

District 7210 is excited to announce that we’re accepting nominations for our first-ever District Awards. This initiative was led by the Rotary Young Professional Action Committee (RYPAC).

"The success of our Rotary impact on our communities starts at our club level, so it only makes sense that we showcase our outstanding Rotarians, clubs, and projects,” said RYPAC Chair Beau Loendorf. “I am proud to see our District make strides forward in recognizing the hard work but now it's up to our members to nominate those deserving Rotarians."

DG Larry's March message
As of March 1, there are 132,480 minutes left until July 1, 2023 - but who's counting?
 
March is upon us, and we are 2/3 of the way through the Rotary year. Current club presidents are starting to wind-down while Presidents-Elect (PE) have been preparing for our Multi-District President Elect Training Seminar (PETS) on March 23-25 in Whippany, New Jersey. At PETS, incoming Presidents in addition to Assistant Governors will have the opportunity to hear from 2023-2024 Rotary International President Gordan McNally and our own Rotary International Director Drew Kessler along with a myriad of speakers. Topics such as membership, The Rotary Foundation, and public image are among the subjects that will be discussed.  Additionally, PEs will have the opportunity to mingle with and speak to Rotarians from five other districts and share ideas for operation of their own clubs.
 
At the end of April (April 29 to be exact) will be our District Training Assembly at SUNY New Paltz.  All District members, but in particular, club leadership (officers and committee chairpersons), are invited to the event.  Watch for additional information from DGE Peter Sullivan as we get closer to April 29.

Their topic of Club Culture Transformation was especially relevant in the post-pandemic Rotary world. Many clubs have experienced declining attendance at meetings and service projects. Engagement is difficult and attracting new member has also proved challenging.
