represented by around 11 members.

Another District activity with our active involvement was the

Membership Recruitment Seminar held in the Rotary Club of

The ‘Membership Recruitment Seminar’ was conducted with the focal point of increasing

membership in the entire District. While we recognize the challenge of retaining our talents, we are

given the task of increasing our membership to at least 10% from our current level. That would

translate to recruiting 4 new members with our current headcount 39. Fortunately, we have 2 new

members thus, we have two to go till June of 2010.
