Dear Fellow Rotarians,
With great pleasure we bring to you the curtain raiser to the GML 2011-2012 under the leadership of the DG 2011-2012, Rtn. Ratnesh Kashyap.
Heralding a new era in District management, while paying rich gratitude to the leadership and guidance paved by the PDGs, the GML also hopes to reflect vision of the DG as was experienced in the PETS held at Kota, the Dist. Assembly held at Silvassa, and AGTS held at Goa, by way of several additional features to be added in the new GML.
Through this endeavour it is hoped that we shall be able to ensure greater participation of all the Rotary members, their spouses and children, through the involvement and efforts of the Club Presidents and Secretaries.
These features are listed out as under-
1) Spouse Corner
Encouraged with the tremendous response generated at the District Assembly, AGTS, and PETS training program- in the spouse session conducted by first lady Mrs. Rashi Kashyap, GML team has decided to incorporate a ‘spouse corner’. Solicited items for this will be Articles, perception of spouses on Rotary world, recommendations on the type of projects that can be done, suggestions for any changes deemed as worthwhile, sharing of anecdotes etc.
2) Open Forum
This column is being created to give a platform for Rotarians all over the district to have a direct interaction with the DG, any of the office bearers of Rotary, fellow Rotarians or the GML team. A complete transparency regarding district operations will be aimed at. Feedback to each query / comment shall be given at this forum itself.
As an added feature, in this column, two questions will be asked to the Presidents of each club. It shall be their responsibility to circulate these questions amongst the club members and spouses, and not only that to also motivate them to send their answers to these questions along with the photographs by email or post to GML. For each set of answers received, three best answers will be published with the photographs of the winners, in the consecutive GML, and they will be suitably rewarded. For the first issue, we will send the set of questions by email within 15-20 days of dispatch of this letter. The President must encourage the members and spouses locally.
3) New Generation column
Presidents and secretaries are requested to encourage the Rotaract and Interact club office bearers to report their club activities along with the relevant photographs for timely publication in the GML.
4) Reporting of monthly average attendance of each club
Monthly average attendance is to be sent to Rtn. G.K. Agarwal (District secretary- Attendance and Fellowship) by the second of each month, on the email id- plyglassjaipur@ymail.com
This is to be considered as MANDATORY. DGE Ratneshji has linked it with the DG citation. The reporting format is given on the next page as annexure
