(Issue 26, 18 January 2009)
January
is
Rotary Awareness Month
"Let's Talk Rotary"
I hope you all enjoyed a well earned break and are
refreshed and ready for more Rotary action.

focus on Rotary Awareness Month, let us all think of how we can
spread the word and make everyone aware of Rotary. We need to make
people aware of who we are, what we do, and what we stand for. So
over this month of January let’s think of all ways we can get our
message out to others: Let’s Do It, Let’s Talk About Rotary.
