RI Announces Theme
for 2007-08
RI President-elect Wilfrid J. Wilkinson announced that “Rotary Shares” will be the theme of his presidency. "What makes Rotary great is our expressing the love in our hearts through the work of our hands and our minds," said Wilkinson. "As Rotarians, we don't just sit back and talk about loving other human beings. As Rotarians, we demonstrate that love, and we share that love, through helping each other."
Almost everything Rotary does involves sharing, Wilkinson told more than 500 district governors-elect gathered at the International Assembly in San Diego. "We share our time, we share our talents, and we share our money with others who need our help."
District Updates Website
District 7510 has launched a new website. Check it out at www.rotarynj.org Congratulations to District Webmaster Lewis Edge, and the Web Designer Dana Hutchinson who designed and launched the website. Both are Rotarians in the Princeton club. However, this is still a work in progress. Each Director has their own page, and each of the 65 committees has their own page. We are asking them to provide content to Dana, to make this an outstanding and useful website.
