Speaker - Christine Owen DGE on Zone 8 Regionalisation
Regionalisation - The future of Rotary is in our hands
District Governor Elect Christine Owen was our speaker this week andjoined by colleague Doug Vincent on the Rotary Zone 8 Regionalisation Project.
This is a project over the next 3 years which will look at ways to improve Rotary and make it more relevant to new & older Rotarians.
Some of changes might include:
- Give Rotary a unified one voice
- bring in a new heirarchy, potentially replacing the current district model.
- Reduce the duplication of administration costs across the districts.
- Longer Terms for officers, say 3-4 years to enable time to implement ideas.
- Bigger, more flexible project funding.
and much more.

The project will only go ahead if 2/3's of clubs vote yes. Our club gets 1 vote, with the vote expected in mid September, we have a few more weeks to discuss.
In addition this week we had the pleasure of 2 events
- PP Paul Jones & Christine Owen DGE were honoured to present member Robyn Parker with a Paul Harris Fellowship as a thankyou for her contribution to Rotary.
- We were also pleased to induct our newest member. The Hon. Dr. Gordon Reid MP was inducted as an Honorary Member of the Rotary Club of Gosford City. Gordon returned the honour with presenting us with an Aboriginal & Tores Strait Islands Flag and is looking forward to supporting us when he can with our meetings and Rotary Projects throughout the years ahead.
