Here is the chance for you to become a part of a dynamic leadership group that will no doubt become part of your San Diego family. New board members will take office July 1, 2006 but the voting is soon for "officers-elect" as additional time will allow for a better transition from the current board to the new board.

Nominations and voting is for the four (4) elected positions: President, Vice President, Treasurer and Secretary. Once these four are elected they will build the rest of their supporting board. Mark your calendars now as we need every member to participate in the nomination and voting processes. Important Dates:

| Rotaract & Rotary Trivia Why should a Rotary club sponsor a Rotaract club? Organizing a Rotaract club is one of the most rewarding community activities a Rotary club can undertake. The Rotaract program gives Rotarians the opportunity to mentor dynamic young men and women who want to provide service in their local and global communities. Rotarians also will serve as resources for Rotaractors who will become tomorrow's parents, business professionals, and community leaders. In turn, a Rotaract club can bring new energy to a Rotary club, inspire fresh ideas for service, increase support to projects, and spread knowledge of Rotary to other sectors of the community. Rotaractors, with the experience they gain through this Rotary program, make exceptional future Rotarians. |
