Rotary International Special Programs In addition to the programs that Stroudsburgs Rotary engage in… there are a few that the annual Rotary calendar designate in order to emphasize major programs of Rotary International. Here are some that Stroudsburgs Rotary either honor or promote. January is a time to expand knowledge of Rotary and its activities among membership and throughout the community. It is a time to share the vocations of members and learn ways to support one another. February 23 is the anniversary of Rotary International. Rotary clubs are urged to present programs during the month, which promote international understanding and goodwill. Clubs are also urged to launch World Community Service projects in collaboration with Clubs in other parts of the world. March is a time when Rotary clubs and districts highlight Rotaract by joining in projects with their Rotaract clubs. World Rotaract Week is the week in which March 13 falls. April is when clubs arrange programs and activities which promote the reading and use of THE ROTARIAN magazine, as well as the official regional magazines of Rotary. It is also when registrations are finalized for the International Convention. May is Youth Service month… a time when the entire world focuses on youth services Rotaract, Interact, RYLA, Youth Exchange, and the little ones participating in Earlyact. June is Rotary Fellowship Month and when conventions are held for Rotaract, Youth Exchange Officers, and Rotary International. Have a Blissful Week President Cleo MeriAbut Jarvis |
