New Website for District 5890

You are invited to visit the new District 5890 website at www.rotary5890.org.

Applause to District Governor Jeff Tallas for getting the site rolling and to Cecile Schutter and Wayne Turner! They put in a lot of time and effort to make the new site possible.

If you go to the new website and click on "New User? Click Here" in the left column you can sign up to gain entry to the site's interior. Many of the admin areas are not available to all memebrs...but you will find access to the following is available for all members:

  • Document Download Area
  • District Directory
  • Update Your Profile
  • Change Your Password

Take a look around. The site is still growing and improving, so visit often to see what's new.

And...again APPLAUSE to Cecile and Wayne and all the others who supported their efforts!

Are Your Ads In Yet?

We are heading toward November VERY QUICKLY! The 19th Annual Bob Fitts Memorial All GIrls Basketball Classic will be November 15-17 and we need ads for the program! THis year, to pay all expenses and be able to award two scholarships we need to sell roughly $5,000 in program advertising.

That means each of us needs to sell $270 in advertising (or more!) Ken Burgess will handle the program design again this year - and design ads if you need that for an advertiser. We need to have the ad info turned in by November 1st...so let's get busy!
