Oktoberfest/Prospective Member Day
Please attend this week as we have a fun day planned at Rotary.  This will be a day to bring a prospective member to learn about Suburban Rotary.  We will have an Oktoberfest menu with beer for sale ($5 each).   Thanks to a generous anonymous donor, we will have free beer for the first 20 Rotarians with prospective members and your guest!!! 
 
Friend of Suburban Rotary 
Last week Past Trustee Chair, Tom Kerfoot, recognized Bob Swartzbaugh as a  Friend of Suburban Rotary for his donations of $2500 to our local Suburban Rotary Foundation. Our local Foundation supports a variety of projects including matching our District and Global Grants as well as the $50,000 annually in scholarships for students with disabilities. Congratulations and thank you!
 
 
Lake Party

Rotary Leadership Institute
This is open to all members.  
 
Engage and empower members . . .
Energize and strengthen your Rotary Club . . .
Provide Leadership Development for Members . . . 
Learn about Rotary and have fun!
 
That is the Rotary Leadership Institute experience!
 
Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) is a facilitated program with active participation - not lecturing. Topics important to Rotary and Rotary Clubs such as Effective Service Projects, Membership Engagement, and understanding The Rotary Foundation are explored. You will discuss real challenges and exchange ideas.
 
Sign up yourself - you will be a more effective leader for your Rotary Club.
 
Nominate members and they will naturally become more engaged because they will have a richer Rotary experience.
 
RLI is for everyone - Leadership is not a position, it is action.
 
There are two upcoming opportunities to participate in RLI.
 
You must participate in the full day to get credit.
