Visioning and Rabbit Ears?


(After reading this entry, send Terry Gilbert an e-mail at glennsson@msn.com.  In the subject line, write "Rotary Prize."  All those who do will have their names thrown into a "hat" on Sunday, June 20.  The winner will receive either an official RI necktie or scarf [your choice].  We'll offer a different prize next week so keep returning to the blog for updated stories and prizes from time to time.)

Yes, the distinguished Rotarians in this picture are either flashing a peace sign or making rabbit ears to grace the heads of their fellow Rotarians.

Actually, this is a Nampa Rotary Club picture taken by Krista Cole, Visioning trainer, on Tuesday, June 15, when fifteen leaders gathered to envision the future. The Nampa Rotary Club is the 10th club that has benefited from visioning this year.

At the end of the evening, the club had generated great ideas to guide their future, including the goal of establishing Interact clubs at all Nampa high schools with an emphasis on ethics and 4-Way Test to develop future leaders.

The club’s challenge now is to go from great ideas to action plan to strategic plan.

Interested in visioning for your club? Contact either one of the trainers, Krista Cole (kcenter59@msn.com), Charles Weymouth (cweymouth@group-one.com) or Mary Reiman (mary@markserv.com). The District will put together a Visioning Team, help you select a date and provide the training.

Want to become a Visonary trainer? Contact Terry Gilbert (glennsson@msn.com or 695-9262). District training is scheduled for July 17 in Twin Falls at District expense.

  1. It's amazing how many interesting and creative ideas are generated from a visioning session; I think the "Rotary House" idea will come to fruition...it was new, shared that evening, and well embraced. Thanks for an inspirational, driven evening!! Mary Reiman
