GovERNoR DR. JuAN F. oRTEGA • editorial

Dear Fellow Rotarians, February is World Under-standing Month, a time when Rotary clubs focus on projects and programs that promote peace and reduce conflict in our communities and around the world. It is not a secret that the problems we face today such as violent conflicts, destruction of na-ture, poverty, hunger, and so on, are human created prob-lems which can be resolved through human effort and understanding. There is a remarkable peace initiative in our District that has grown to include most of our Rotary clubs. This initia-tive started in the Wellington Rotary Club. The initiative involves the majority of the members of the Wellington Club working with local community leaders where several projects are imple-mented throughout the year

including peace poetry and multicultural understanding essay contests in each of the 13 Wellington schools. Also, in conjunction to the local Boy and Girl Scouts, peace merit badges are designed, to be awarded at the annual Peace Ceremony during Ro-tary Peace Day. Local clergy, representing several different religions are encouraged to give sermons regarding “May Peace Prevail on Earth” within 2 weeks before Rotary Peace Day in September. And last but not least, peace talks are given to local civic and community organizations. As a Rotarian, my concern extends to all members of the human family, specially, to all human beings who suffer. No matter what part of the world we come from, what language we speak, what we do for living or what religion we practice, we are all basi-

cally the same human beings. We all seek happiness and in the process try to avoid suffering. We have basically the same human needs and concerns. We want freedom and the right to determine our own destiny. That is human nature.Rotarians are the best in the world at doing what we do, making the world a much better place. But we cannot do it alone. And that is why is so important to create com-munity awareness about our service, only together we will succeed in building a better world through human under-standing and love!

YOUR CLUB’S BOARD OF DIRECTORS

As we are approaching the time of year when our President Elects are selecting their Board of Directors – the perennial question of WHO should serve as a club’s board comes up.

OLD vs. NEW

A board composed solely of “seasoned” Rotarians – especially if they have been on the board “forever”, or at least it appears so, is not healthy. The old saying, “if you do what you’ve always done you’ll get what you always got” applies here. You will get no new ideas and your club will become stale. A board made up of all “new” folks, especially those new to Rotary is also fraught with risks. These folks don’t have a feel for the history, culture, practices or personality of the club. SO WHO SHOULD SERVE?

BALANCE

A good board should have some experienced members – not only club experience but with some experience serving on the board. These people provide what is known as “institutional memory”. They are vital in keeping a board\club from repeating errors. A good board should include some new\newer members. We all acknowledge that the best way to keep new people in Rotary is to ENGAGE THEM EARLY in their life in Rotary. New or newer members bring a fresh perspective and new ideas. They also have a high energy level, are excited about being part of the club and have not yet been infected by the “it can’t be done” bug. Including past club officers who have appeared to retire and are not doing much brings needed experience to the board. Avoid “cronyism”. Healthy discourse is better than a bunch of bobble headed nodding friends of the president. Remember the future health of your club is influenced by the composition of the board.

Top Ten Things You Really Need to Know About Rotary Florida PETS

Number 1You are responsible for your own hotel reservation. You must make your reservation with the hotel NO LATER THAN January 31 in order to secure the special PETS room rate. If you miss this deadline, you will have to pay the hotel’s regular room rate (or not get a room at all) and there will be absolutely nothing the PETS committee can do to help you if you miss the hotel’s dead-line. You are responsible for registering yourself for PETS if you have not done so already (online via your district calen-dar). Number 2Event registration takes place in the Conference Center Reg-istration all on Thursday from noon to 5 pm and on Friday from 7:30 am to 9:30 am. Number 3An incredible opening plenary session is to begin on Friday at 9 am. Please be in your seats in the main room by that time.

Number 4Attire for the sessions during the day is “Rotary” casual. Rotary golf shirts and slacks are welcome but since this is a business meeting, please no shorts or T-shirts. Number 5The Friday dinner is decidedly a special affair. Suggested at-tire is coat and tie for gentle-men and a dress or pant suit for ladies. Our keynote speaker at the Friday dinner will be Ro-tary International President-Elect Gary Huang. Number 6Name badges are essential and it is a requirement that each participant wear his or her PETS issued badge at all ses-sions. Your name badge is your “meal ticket” for admission to the Friday lunch, Friday din-ner, Saturday breakfast, and Saturday lunch. Sergeants-at-Arms will be turning away any persons not wearing a name badge upon entry and will be asking to see the name badge of any seated guests not wear-ing a badge in the hall where

the meals take place. Number 7Please encourage your spouse or partner to attend as we have special sessions for spouses / partners on both Friday and Saturday. The spouse program is being redesigned to help your spouse / partner have fun while learning more about Ro-tary and giving them the tools to help aid you in having a successful year. Your spouse / partner must be registered to attend. Please register your spouse / partner and pay the $200 registration fee no later than January 31. The Operat-ing Committee must make meal count guarantees to the hotel in advance of the event. Meal tickets will not be sold onsite at PETS. Number 8There will be an outstanding House of Friendship in the Event Center featuring several Rotary Action Groups, Rotary International and The Rotary Foundation Support Teams, Rotary Fellowships and Ro-tary International licensed

vendors selling all things Ro-tary: shirts, pins, flags, jewelry, caps, cups...and more!! You will want to bring your credit card or a check from your club treasurer to stock up on theme items for the new Rotary year. Number 9The Rotary Store is back in the House of Friendship this year where you can purchase / order Rotary program materials for your club! There are also many free items that will be available for you to take home with you. You can download and print the list of available items from the Rotary Store below so you can plan ahead on what you may want to purchase / order for your club. There will be considerable inventory at the store, but you should come ear-ly before these items sell out. Number 10Please encourage your Ro-taract Presidents-Elect to at-tend as Rotaract sessions will be part of the Florida PETS agenda.

ROTARY CLUB OF VERO BEACH SUNRISE

THE RC OF VERO BEACH SUNRISE TAKES THE 4-WAY TEST SERIOUSLY

In response to a Rotary Awareness Month communication the District Vocational Service Committee received the following message from Brian Carman, president of the Rotary Club of Vero Beach:

“The Rotary Club of Vero Beach Sunrise has ongoing programs to promote the 4-Way Test both within the club and in the community.” “First, we give out the Sunrise Rotary Vocational Service Award to a business or organization that promotes the ideals of the 4-Way Test in their daily work. Such businesses or organizations are nominated by members of our club and then screened by our Vocational Service Chair and our Board of Directors. The chosen business is then invited to our club for a presentation of the vocational service award. “The 2014 award was presented to Mr. J. Colkitt, owner of Colkitt Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning (See the accompanying photo of the award presentation). The award read:

Vocational Service Award 2014 Presented to

Colkitt Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning For your dedication to our community and your adherence to

the highest ethical standards and the embodiment of the principles of Rotary International of “Service Above Self”

October 2014

The award is publicized in the local newspaper with a photo of the presentation and an article describing what this award is all about and why this particular business or organization was chosen for recognition. This is an annual award.” “Second, we promote the 4-Way Test by purchasing a framed copy of the 4-Way Test for those members who have businesses where the plaque can be displayed to the business’ customers. In addition chains and 4-Way Test cards are distributed to the membership annually for those who want them”. “Sunrise Rotary Vice President Kevin Anderson has led this effort for the past two years.” We take the 4-Way Test seriously in the Rotary Club of Vero Beach Sunrise.”

"Vero Beach Sunrise vice president Kevin Anderson (right) presents the RC of Vero Beach Vocational Service Award to Mr. J. Colkitt, owner of Colkitt Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning."


Palm Beach Flagler Rotary CLub

The Palm Beach Flagler Rotary Club has donated dictionaries to all 4th grade students and thesauruses to all 5th grade students at Hope Rural School in Indiantown. They additionally read and donate books to their pre-school classes.

Hope Rural School began in 1980. It is a 501(c)(3). Its mission is to educate primarily, but not exclusively, children of migrant/immigrant farm worker parents. Many enter the school not speaking a word of English and, by the time The Palm Beach Glagler Rotary Club visits them, they speak English perfectly and often end up helping to teach their own parents the language. It started as a one-room school, grades K-2. Today, it has blossomed into is a fully accredited institution now offering classes to 125 students in Pre-K through Grade 5. Hope Rural has created it's own motto or theme for it's students: Be a Person of Character. This motto includes "the six pillars of character". We are amazed how similar it is to our own 4-Way Test!

ROTARY CLUBS CAN APPLY FOR THE INNOVATIVE AND FLEXIBLE CLUB PILOT

Please share the following information with the Rotary clubs in your district.

The RI Board of Directors is expanding the Innovative and Flexible Club pilot from 200 to 1,000 clubs beginning 1 July 2015 through 30 June 2017.

The Innovative and Flexible Club pilot, will evaluate the impact of various changes to meeting format, leadership structure, membership qualifications and requirements on a club’s ability to sustain and increase membership, implement successful programs and service projects, and support The Rotary Foundation.

To participate in this pilot, clubs must:

Have chartered before 30 June 2010 Be in good financial standing Have at least 20 members Not be participating in the 2011-17 membership pilots

The deadline for submitting a pilot application form is 31 March 2015. District and club officers will be notified of clubs selected to participate in June 2015.

Thank you for sharing this information with your clubs and for supporting this important work for Rotary’s future.

Sincerely,

John Hewko

My name is angelica Blakely and i will be at your service as Public image Chair in our district. as part of rotary’s new strategy we are trying to strengthen our image so that everyone will understand what rotary stands for, how we’re different, and why it matters.i encourage all Public image Chairs for each club to download from rotary Brand Center the Messaging Guidelines Brochure, subtitled the Voice, and Visual rotary Guidelines, to share with club members. in this brochure you will find powerful tools to do “What we need to do”, which is to tell our great story in a way that ensures our actions and supports our words. and if your club doesn’t have Public image Chairs please ask your president to appoint someone. one of the best ways to bring our story to life is to simply tell about it. With this in mind we will have a space in the district newsletter called “telling You Story”. it will be a forum for individuals to tell about the day they became a true rotarian. Submissions will need to be no more than 400 words and, if possible, should include the author’s picture. Stories like these can inspire others and help to con-nect people to one another.Please, ask your P.I chair to send them to me at: [email protected]

“Have you ever heard of a “Peace Pole’?”, my wife asked me. I replied, “No, but that sounds interesting. Let me look into it.” We had lived overseas for a number of years and interacted within many different cultures, so Joan was really excited about the Wellington Rotary Club donating a Peace Pole to our community.

Having researched “Peace Poles”, in 2004 I took the Peace Pole concept to the Wellington Board. They agreed, and thought it would be great to sponsor a Peace Pole somewhere in Wellington.

I formed a Peace Pole committee and we met numerous times with village officials. We visited 8-9 possible locations, trying to find one that we could all agree on.

My wife passed in early 2005, and I went into a deep depression. After a year of grief, and the project slowly dying, some of my Rotary friends pulled me aside and said, “This was Joan’s idea, aren’t you going to finish it for her?” They made their point……..

Our committee started meeting with the village again. We finally found a super highly visible location for a Peace Pole, near our public library and next to an elementary school. In 2005, the Village Council liked the Peace Pole project and gave their formal approval.

The committee moved into high gear at this point. We ordered an 8 -sided cedar Peace Pole, with different languages on each side of the pole saying, “May Peace Prevail On Earth”. We organized an elementary World Peace poster contest for our 6 elementary schools, a World Peace Poetry contest for our 3 middle schools and a World Peace essay contest for our two high schools. This was the birth of the” “Wellington Rotary World Peace Initiative”. The Peace Initiative begins in February and culminates at the World Peace Ceremony, on Sept 21st of each year.

At the same time, different committees identified recipients for a “Community World Peace Award”; high school “Conflict Resolution Award” and a “World Peace Scout Merit Badge” project. Other committees were: Contacting the County Sheriff (color guards and bugler for “Taps”); National Anthem; Dove Release; Peace Balloons; Flag Donors for “Rotary Circle”; Village World Peace Proclamation; 8 people to recite “May Peace Prevail On Earth” in their native languages at the World Peace Ceremony; World Peace Sermon Letters; the actual World Peace Ceremony; PR; and Fund Raising. Unknown to me, a committee was formed to design a plaque in memory of Joan’s inspiration for the Peace Pole.

Committees followed through. We had over 300 people at the ceremony. The ceremony was a great success.

As I left the site, after the ceremony, I walked by the marble stone with Joan’s memorial plaque, I said to my self, “This may be the community’s and Rotary’s Peace Pole, but in my heart I think it is really Joan’s.”

Presently there are 9 Peace Poles planted in what is now the “Wellington Rotary Peace Park”. This year will mark our 10th annual “Wellington World Peace Incentive”.
