How is Rotary changing and evolving across the Pacific Northwest and around the world? What is the District 5030 Strategy plan? How can your Rotary club increase its IMPACT and REACH, better ENGAGE with your local community, and ADAPT during these challenging times? District leadership can answer these questions and help clubs better serve their members and community, grow and retain membership, and increase their overall positive impact both locally and internationally. Please plan to attend this fact-filled and heart-felt presentation from our District Governor Jeffrey Borek – a Rotary member since 2000, President of Seattle 4 during the pandemic, and dedicated Rotarian in many capacities before his election to District Governor for this 2025/26 Rotary Year. DG Jeff will address these topics and answer questions.
