A new Rotary year beckons for Foundation Advocates

In less than a month the class of 2015 -2016 Foundation Advocates will complete their duties in that role. With the advent of the 2016-2017 year there will be a new Foundation Advocate structure and a newly defined role for Advocates  as Past District Governor Chuck Arnason assumes the role as the District Rotary Foundation Committee Chair.  There will be more published in the near future about the newly designed Foundation Advocate program.  For now it is provident to recognize the 2015-16 Foundation Advocates and thank them for a job well done.

Delegation of Club Access to Foundation Advocates

Status Update on Delegation of Access To Foundation Advocates

Friday, August 14, District Governor Gary sent an email to the 17 Area Governors (AGs) instructing them to use the delegation tool to delegate club access through June 30, 2016, to their counterpart area Foundation Advocates.

To-date only 5 and 1/2 of the delegations have been accomplished.  So, you hale and hardy Advocates … if you have not received an email from Rotary International that the AG has delegated access to the clubs in your area, you need to contact your AG and ask him or her to accomplish this important task soonest.

If you need help contacting your AG contact me … 804-691-8486 or woodwardcd@aol.com.  Thanks to the Advocates who have personally informed me that they have received their delegation notices.

Why this delegation Matters

As Foundation Advocates you are the personal representatives of the District Rotary Foundation Committee Chair, Jim Probsdorfer, to the clubs in your areas.  With this access you can look at data and reports for your area clubs. The AG still has access, so, this delegation does two things … it makes it easier for you and your counterpart AG to co-ordinate on assisting clubs in accomplishing  important goals … and it gives you as Advocates the means to fulfill your role as Jim’s liaison with you clubs.

Attractions in the next 90 days

  • Advocates Conference Call August 27 at 4 (separate email notices with bridge numbers)
  • Campaign to boost EREY (Every Rotarian Every Year)
  • Advocates should be connecting with their Club Foundation Chairs & visiting them
  • Club Foundation Chairs may access the 52 Weekly TRF messages for educating their clubs (see the ‘Resources & Documents’ page at 7600advocates.wordpress.com
  • District Conference October 1-4 in Williamsburg. Regsiter at dacdb.com

♥ Dennis Wool (The Historic Triangle) Area 11 Advocate was the first Advocate to receive his delegation to access from Area Governor Frank Ferrante (Williamsburg).  Amazing as Frank had been a tad under the weather (including a short stay at hospital)

♥ Bill Billings (Franklin) is the artist who created the banner image at the 2014 Foundation Banquet now on the 7600advocates.wordpress.com site
