With June 30th starting to come into view, it may feel like we’re in a sprint as our Clubs are looking to finish strong.  As your District Governor, I’m excited about what will unfold over these next three months.  Here’s a quick look at what is currently lined up as, together, we keep striving to Serve to Change Lives!
Here’s a look at upcoming District Conference-related satellite events.

Saturday, April 23, 2022 – District Virtual Spring Training
Details for this event to help your club leadership be ready for the start of another fantastic year can be found in “Spotlight on Training” below.
 
Saturday, May 7, 2022 – District Speech Contest Finals
Winners from each of our District Areas will gather in Lyndonville, VT at the Lyndonville Congregational Church (corner of Church Street and Middle Street) to compete in this final round.  Following the contest, we will have lunch together where the winner and runner-up will be announced. If you would like to attend this in-person event, probably beginning mid-morning, which has always been one of the brightest spots in our Rotary year, please register here.
 
Saturday, June 18, 2022 – District Celebration and Changeover (tentatively, 10 am to 4 pm)
It has been three years since we’ve gathered as a District to celebrate our life together as well as recognize the annual change in leadership which keeps us creative, vital, and strong as we move into the future.  Even though we felt it was too risky to try and plan and commit District resources to a major Conference, I was hopeful that we could still design an outdoor event in June that would be safe and above all, fun!  So, mark your calendars and plan to join us on June 18th.  Details for the day, as well as location, will come your way in upcoming Newsletters.  Please, just plan now to be there!
 
Friday through Sunday (noon), June 24-26, 2022 – RYLA!!  (Rotary Youth Leadership Academy)  Northern Vermont University, Lyndon, VT
