    District News

    The Rotary Club of Mount Dora is giving away TWO great items! Donation tickets at $5.00 each are available at the Youth Dinner, and Club President Bob Kaiser will have them on the Cruise!

    A Panasonic 42" HD flat screen TV, and a second prize of a Hewlett-Packard laptop, will be drawn on December 19, 2007.There are only 1000 tickets available, so the odds are excellent to win one of these two great items!

    It will help their scholarship program.


    Next Rotary Learning Institute
    Rotary Leadership Institute

    Registration is now open for the Rotary Leadership Institute to be held at The Villages on January 19, 2008. This will be the first time RLI will be held there, and Rotarians from other districts are registering because of The Villages proximity to 3 other districts. Part 1, 2,& 3 will be offered. Class sizes will be limited to the first 20 Rotarians that register for each part. There will only be 1 class for each part, so be sure to register and pay the fee of $95 at the time you register.

    Please register at www.rlitraining.org

    If you have any questions, please direct them to RLI District Director Marty Kramer at marty.kramer@earthlink.net


    Attention Committee Chairs

    As all of these wonderful events happen, please email me photos, a short blurb and rotarians involved so that we can publish it in the newsletter and have them on record. Thank you.
