Happy New Year. It is a cliché, but time does seem to go faster when you are busy and, as I look back on the first half of my DG year, I have an enormous

respect for my predeces-sors who were able to so ably fulfill the DG role and still be gainfully em-ployed. We all owe you a real debt of gratitude.

2008 has started with a bang. On Friday 4th and Saturday 5th, PDG Carol Allen organized a very successful Outbound Scholar/GSE training in

High Point. This is a Zone 33 training event and in this edition you will find several arti-cles about both the nature of this orientation and pictures of some of the participants.

Last Saturday (12th) 121 attended the Mid-Year Assembly held in Cary at the Green-wood Forest Baptist Church. Again, in this edition, you will find a report on the assem-bly and my thanks go to everyone that helped make this assembly a success, in particular to Rick Carnagua and Steve Denning for coordinating arrangements with

the Church and for Rick and Bart Cleary for organizing refreshments which were tempt-ing and even, in some cases, low choles-terol.

As you get this newsletter, Don Buckner, our District Governor Elect, and Sylvia are in San Diego for the last of the 3 training events every DG and partner receives before taking over the reins. Don will get a chance to meet the other 532 DG’s from all over the globe, he will come back with a blazer and tie that will be the “official” uniform for the 2008-2009 team and will share with us the theme for that year.

Please don’t miss the chance to come to the next RLI training on January 26th at Wake Tech Community college. You can access the Zone 33 RLIZone 33 RLIZone 33 RLIZone 33 RLI website through our district website http://rotary7710.org/ for regis-tration. The cost for Part I, II and III is $85 per Part and I am encouraging clubs to sponsor prospective members as part of a pro-active approach to leadership succes-sion within their clubs. Locations and dates for upcoming RLI events are conveniently planned throughout the service area throughout the year. Rotarians are encour-aged to attend RLI events at any location.

Barry Phillips Governor, 2007 - 08

A friendship exchange has been arranged with Rotary District 1010. This district covers the northern 2/3 of Scotland, including the Orkneys and Shetland Islands.

The District 1010 group of approximately 6 couples will visit our District in the Fall - ten-tative dates are Sept. 30—Oct. 14. A group from out District – about the same number of families – will visit Scotland in late August, 2009

We will need 5 clubs, or “host groups”, from smaller clubs to host the group for 3 nights

each. Unlike the GSE groups, the hosts will take their guests to both planned group ac-tivities as well as one-on-one individual ac-tivities. The group activities will need to be coordinated so that our guests are not treated (for example) to five trips to the NC Museum of Art.

Any club interested in acting as a host may contact Warner Hall, the District Friendship Exchange Chairman (919) 787-1274 or e-mail [email protected]

Warner hopes to have more specific details within the next couple of months

Supplies at area food banks are extremely low because of high demand over the holi-days. Rotary District 7710 wants to help by matching your club’s contribution to your local food bank or similar organization. Would your club consider donating food?Would your club consider donating food?Would your club consider donating food?Would your club consider donating food?

♦ Have Rotarians bring a bag of non-

perishable food to the next club meet-ing.

♦ Alternatively, club funds can be used to

purchase food. Receipts must be sub-mitted in order to receive reimburse-ment from a District Simplified Grant.

♦ Rotary District 7710 will match your

club dollar-for-dollar, up to $1000, when you apply for a District Simplified Grant. It's important to keep track of the dollar value of the goods.

♦ Add a Rotary sticker on your donations

("Donated by Your Local Rotary Club") and get publicity for this project.

♦ Encourage club members to volunteer

to distribute food directly to recipient families

After-the-holidays Rotary Food Drive

Let's SHARE ROTARY with the young men in the Rotary Cottage at Lake Waccamaw on the fourth annual Rotary Day on February 10. Rotarians from around the state will be there giving us an opportunity for fellowship. Like last year, the Louisburg College bus is available for those wishing to travel there as part of a group. Meet at the Cary train sta-tion at 7:30 a.m. on Sunday, February 10, 2008. The Chapel program will begin at 11:00 a.m., followed by a catered meal ($8.00 per per-son, children free) at noon. Following the meal we will fellowship at the Rotary cottage and view recent work done on it. Tours of the beautiful campus will also be available. This year we will have an opportunity to bring

items for use in the cottage or items to be sold in the Country Store. Items always needed are single sheets, pillow cases, pil-lows, towels and wash cloths as well as per-sonal items such as toothbrushes, soap etc. Governor Barry will present a check from District 7710. The visit will conclude at ap-proximately 2:30 p.m.. Reservations are required for the bus trip and the meal. If you drive to the campus on your own, you still need to make reserva-tions for the meal. Please call or email Charlie Hatch at (919)362-8550 [email protected] to register both for the bus and for the meal. Let's show the young men in our cottage that Rotary cares.

Rotary Day at the Boys and Girls Home



Please send via email any pictures or vid-eos of any club event you would like to highlight at the conference. Every club in the district is encouraged to showcase their achievements or club activities at our conference. This could be anything from Million Meals events to Governor Barry’s club visits last summer. Lori Barbier and Bill Wicker are putting together a special media presentation for the night of our grand Rotary Foundation dinner. In addi-tion to this, there is space available for board or table stands to showcase your clubs. If you would like to reserve table top space for the conference, please let them know.

Please email photos and/or videos to Bill Wicker at [email protected]. If you have any questions, please email him or call him at 919-906-5115. Also, beginning in February, District Confer-ence committee team members will be avail-able to visit your clubs and give a short pres-entation on the upcoming conference. Thanks from your 2008 Rotary District 7710 Conference Chair, Bill Wicker and Lori Barbier, co-conference chair and secretary.

Highlight your club’s activities at the District Conference

121 Rotarians (including 3 of our 4 GSE team members) gathered in Cary for the Mid-Year Assembly. Bill Wicker and Lori Barbier provided information and a bro-chure about this year’s District Conference scheduled for April 18th & 19th. Our key-note speaker for the Friday dinner is Dr. Oliver Smithies, 2007 Nobel Prize winner in Physiology or Medicine, and Excellence Professor, UNC Department of Pathology. PDG Charlie Hatch awarded plaques to rep-resentatives of the Chapel Hill, Oxford and Durham clubs, recognizing those clubs for their donations to The Rotary Foundation last year. Charlie also awarded Steven and Janet Blough, both members of the Cary-Kildaire club, a recognition crystal as Ma-jor Donors to The Rotary Foundation and Janet, her PHF pin and medallion. DGN Russell Duncan updated us on TRF giving within the District (at the end of No-

vember we were about 25% towards our An-nual Giving goal of $190K). Charlie and PDG Bill Lefes distributed a brochure and intro-duced a District-wide Food Drive that can be matched with District Simplified Grant funds. They also gave out two checks for DSGs. PDG Bart Cleary introduced Lacy Winstead (Roxboro) our GSE team leader to District 4810 in the Cordoba region of Argentina and Lacy introduced team members Chris Richter, Kristi Wilson and Christine Denny. The assembly then broke out into 3 sessions; for President-Elects, Secretaries-Elect and Treasurers, and for Rotarians interested in membership retention Thank you to everyone that took time to come and learn and provide input at this assembly and thank you to all the presenters and facili-tators

More than 150 people attended the annual Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar and GSE Team Orientation held in High Point on Janu-ary 4 & 5. Forty five scholars from 16 dis-tricts and 30 GSE team members from 5 dis-tricts attended the intensive, 24-hour train-ing session at the Radisson Hotel designed to prepare them for their overseas experi-ence before they depart for their in-ternational travels. The Rotary Foundation sponsors one of the largest international scholarship programs in the world. Since 1947, more than 38,000 scholars from over 100 countries have re-ceived scholarships worth in excess of $490 million. In 2006-07, 822 scholars from 50 countries studied in 80 countries for a total of $13.9 million. The Group Study Exchange program allows professionals between 25 and 40 who are in the early stages of their careers to travel to another country for four to six weeks and learn about different cultures. Since 1965, about 60,000 individuals (about 12,500 teams) from 100 countries have participated at a cost of more than $96 million. In 2006-07, TRF funded 558 teams’ travel abroad for $4.3 million. Alumnae like Lindsay Morris, who was an

Ambassadorial Scholar to Scotland in 2004-05 and who now works as a community liai-son in U.S Rep. Howard Coble’s office in Greensboro, spoke to the students and pro-fessionals about to embark on their trips, most of which are described by past partici-pants as life-changing. "This whole experi-ence was shaping for me," said Morris, who spoke about culture shock, getting involved and giving presentations during the week-end's training session. "I was a year out of college. It gave me perspective and grounded me." “Every day that you are abroad, always keep in mind that you have been given a gift.”, said PDG Carol Allen, the event organizer. “There are many programs that Rotary can spend money on, but your sponsoring dis-tricts chose to spend some of their money on you – in the belief that as each of you travel abroad, you will create a pocket of peace .” District 7710 Ambassadorial Scholars Nora Dennis and Danielle Lungelow; Mary Coffman, who has been named as a Rotary Peace Fellow; and the outbound GSE team from our district were all in attendance. You can read more about the event and our scholars on the following pages.

The Rotary Foundation is the engine that drives Rotary's international humanitarian service. Without the Foundation, many of Rotary's signature programs wouldn't exist. There would be no PolioPlus, no Humani-tarian Grants, no Ambassadorial Scholar-ships, no Rotary World Peace Fellowships. Without the Foundation, Rotary would be a very different and less powerful force for good in the world. As Rotarians, we give generously, yet we gain so much more: the pleasure of helping others, the satisfaction of knowing that we're doing the right thing, the joys of fel-lowship and friendship. As club members, we gain the global power of Rotary in our service — the power of more than 1.2 mil-lion Rotarians

all over the world, each a potential partner in our projects. I call on every one of you, as Rotarians, to make your annual gift to the Foundation — and to make a gift not only this year but every year to come. It's a basic principle of Rotary that we can do much more together than we could ever do alone. The Rotary Foundation allows us to pool our resources, help each other, and thereby reach heights of service that would be simply unattainable otherwise. The Foun-dation is there for all of us, and it's our re-sponsibility to be there for it. Wilfrid “Wilf” Wilkinson President 2007-08

TRF the engine that drives Rotary

Stand tall and be proud. We have had an incredible 2007 and we have truly kick-started 2008. We contributed in 2006-07, in order to ful-fill our Foundation’s mission, the greatest dollar amount in one year (ever) for our An-nual Programs Fund. We raised (so far) for our Rotary Centers Major Gifts Initiative, 1/3 of our goal of US$ 95 million and we pledged to com-plete that $95 million goal for our Peace Centers by 2015. Our benchmark program (PolioPlus) has received a $100 million challenge grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation allowing us, you and I, to match those dol-lars (over three years) and with that

US$ 200 million, to at last place the final nail in the coffin and to COMPLETELY ERADICATE AND BURY POLIO. And now that statistics tell us that roughly 40 percent of the world’s population was born after 1981, and because of this new and younger population and with so many seeking ways to serve mankind — I feel confident that we can achieve our greatest growth in RI membership since RIPP Rick King's “Global Quest”.

Four-Way Test mug fundraiser


Keep membership top of mind all year by implementing several of the following ideas:

♦ Develop a spreadsheet or database of

program alumni (e.g., Rotaract, Inter-act, Youth Exchange, Group Study Ex-change) so that these individuals can be invited to become Rotarians once they are qualified.

♦ Invite program alumni as guests to

your meetings, and propose any quali-fied alumni for membership.

♦ Ask members to consider recruiting

their spouses to the club, and offer that spouse an incentive, such as no club dues for a full year.

♦ Send a welcome letter to the owners of

new businesses in your community.

♦ Invite a prospective member or members

to participate in a club activity or project that demonstrates the meaningful work of your Rotary club.

♦ Ask members to wear pins or T-shirts

with the slogan “Ask Me About Rotary” to generate conversation about member-ship in Rotary.

♦ Wear the Rotary logo on your clothes all

the time

♦ Make it a point of honor to propose a

new member. Recognize the proposer in the club bulletin or at the weekly meet-ing.

♦ Place a promotional ad or insert in your

local chamber of commerce directory.
