Welcome, Rotary District 6060 Club Presidents to your own area of
our web site. We hope to provide all the information you need to complete
your assigned duties for your club. If you need answers you do NOT find
here, please email your Assistant Governor
for assistance.
All clubs receive a statement from the district for
district dues annually. This should arrive in June and is due by
July 15th. The dues structure, as approved in the district assembly
on April 26, 2003 is $20 per member plus $140 per club.
The instructions for payment will be on the district
statement. Checks are to be payable to Rotary District 6060.
Induction Ceremony
for New Member
We have two example Induction Ceremonies available
here. You are welcome to download them and modify them to work best with
your club's format. There are many similarities between these
two. They are available in MS Word format and also in Adobe
Acrobat (pdf) format.
Also, here is a PowerPoint Presentation your club might
adapt to use in "indoctrinating" your new members or prospective
members.
Here are two variations of ceremonies to use when
presenting Paul Harris Fellowships. These are slight adaptations of the
information sent with a new Paul Harris certificate and medallion.
One is for use when the new Paul Harris Fellow is the
donor. The other is for use when the Paul Harris Fellow is NOT the
donor. They are both in Microsoft Word format.
Next Year's Officers Form
Your club should elect your slate of officers for the coming
Rotary year before December 31 of the current year. Each club secretary
should receive a 2 or 3 part form from Rotary International by mail in the fall.
This is to be filled out and returned to
Rotary International after the club elections in December but no later than
January 31.
Also, our district has a form to submit your slate of
officers and some committee chairs to the district. You can file
these new officers and committee chairs online
with this form or print out the paper versions and mail, fax, or email
them to us. This helps
keep our District Directory up to date and allows us to mail, email, or
phone the correct people in your clubs when the need arises.
Presidential Citation
The Presidential Citation
offers lots of choices to fulfill the requirements this year.
Once the club has achieved these goals, they complete the
Certification form and forward to their District Governor by the end of
March, who signs the
form and forwards on to Rotary International before April 15th.
It would be best to have the certification form in
the Governor's hands before April 1st.

Foundation Goals
The most important item you can do as Club President is
make sure that your club has a Sustaining
Member program in place. This is a system your board of
directors approves to include as part of your billing process. A
line is added to your monthly or quarterly billing that reads,
"Voluntary contribution to the Annual Programs fund of Our
Rotary Foundation."
If you bill your membership monthly, you would put a suggested amount of
$8.33 in the dollars column. If you bill quarterly, you would put
$25.00 in the dollars column. We recommend that you include another
line where you list some other amounts, such as:
" ( )$50 ( )
$100 ( ) $ 250 ( )
$500 ( ) $1000"
You will be amazed how easy this is and the huge
difference it makes in how your members support Our Rotary
Foundation.
Our goal is for every club in District 6060 to have a
Sustaining Member program in place. A further
goal, which is just an extension of implementing the Sustaining Member
program, is that every District 6060 Rotarian will donate at least $100 to
the Annual Programs fund of Our Rotary Foundation every year.
Every Rotarian - Every Year
All incoming club presidents received a
letter explaining our system for setting Rotary Foundation goals.
This was mailed to them on February 8, 2008. Page 5 and 6 of this letter is a form to be completed and returned to
District
Foundation Chairman Todd Lindley at Show Me Rotary.
Please visit our extensive
material about Our Rotary Foundation.
Planning Guide for Effective Rotary Clubs
Club presidents elect need to complete this form between
April and June before they take office. It will be reviewed at a
meeting with your Assistant Governor and the officers and board very early
in the new Rotary year.
This form can be completed while on your computer and
then multiple copies may be printed. It is available in Microsoft
WORD and in Adobe Acrobat PDF format.
Every club can nominate a member to be District
Governor. Minimum requirement is that a District Governor must have
been a Rotarian for seven years, attend an International Convention and
serve one entire term as Club President before becoming a District
Governor. The District Governor must also be willing to devote
the time necessary for their duties. Candidates that are nominated go
through an interview and selection process by a committee.
Read about this process.
To nominate a Rotarian to become a candidate for
District Governor, the club president should write a letter of nomination AND
complete the Biographical
Data form for Candidates for District Governor. The letter and bio
form should be mailed to District Governor Scott Harness. Governor
Scott's address is on the cover of the district directory and the online
district directory. Nominations are accepted from April 1 through
June 1.
