COACH’S CORNERI would like to give a quick, but heartfelt thank you to everyone that made our Evening to Remember with RI President Ravi, a smashing success. We believe that it was the single largest District event of this kind outside of a District Conference. Dan and I were so proud to be able to share this special occasion with so

many District 5190 Rotarians and guests.

Welcome to Basic Education and Literacy Month! We have so many amazing literacy projects being undertaken all over District 5190: dictionaries to third graders, reading to kindergartners, little libraries, high school book clubs, and so many more. If you think your club would like to make a foray into this Rotary International area of focus, please contact the Literacy Chair listed in our District Directory.

As I write this, I am sitting in the Rotary Foundation Seminar with 50 other energized Rotarians learning about how to maximize Our Foundation for doing good in our communities and the world. Later this afternoon, many of them will receive Grants Management Training in order to make sure that their clubs can get their share of the record amount of $102,000 that will be returned to clubs for matching grants this year.

Later in September, the Membership/Public Image Seminar by our Zone 26/26 Team on September 19 at the Parasol building will provide an opportunity for us to learn how about our New Focus on Membership that will introduce some very basic, simple tools that membership committees, public image committees, club presidents, and club leadership can adopt with immediate actions to attract and retain members. We will also talk about how we can strengthen Rotary’s image by delivering a clear and compelling message that

conveys what we do and how people can engage with us. Please join us, at no cost to you or your club.

Dan and I have completed 17 club visits and continue to be overwhelmed at the marvelous projects that every club participates in to make their communities and the world a better place. We are grateful for the clubs’ hospitality, the opportunity to meet Rotarians across the District, and the prospect of our future visits.

When you read this, we will have spent a fun Rotary Day at the Aces with 100 of our best friends to benefit Polio Plus. This is our 5th annual event of this kind and we are blessed to have a partnership with the Aces management and look forward to more events in the future.

While our District Conference, May 13-15, 2016 may seem a long way off, our Conference committee creative vision team met for the first time, and I hope to share some information with you every month on how we are progressing with the many ideas to make this the most fun possible. Our speakers are already in place and John T. Capps III, Ann Lee Hussey, and Mitty Chang are names that you will learn more about as we move forward. While we will have our standbys like the music and speech contests, we are also changing up some things to keep you on your toes, but rest assured the focus will be on fun. Our overall theme is the Rotary International theme: Be a gift to the world, with a sub theme of ‘letting your light shine in the world’. Lighthouses are a favorite subject of mine and, in conversation with many of you, I find that they resonate with you as well, so be prepared for lots of discussion about them. Friday night is planned to be an old fashioned, casual clam bake buffet. And the youth track will include RYE, Interact, and Scouting. More to come!

10 months to go to achieve our Rotary year goals and dreams! Go Team Virus!

New Foundation Giving Record Set By District 5190 Rotarians!

Yet more proof that D-5190 Rotarians are some of the most generous and compassionate people on the planet, we have again set a new record for Annual Fund Program (APF) giving to The Rotary Foundation!

Total contributions to APF as of June 30th, 2015 came in at $433,288 which exceeded the old record of $412,852 set back in 2012-13. Our APF per capita giving is an all time high of $177.14 which exceeds our old ‘high water mark’ of $168.03! Thank You!

Another indication that our economy here in District 5190 is beginning to recover, we Rotarians have actually set new giving records over the past three consecutive years as seen below. The bold totals represent the District’s new giving record in many areas at the end of each Rotary year. Membership numbers are what the year started with and is used to determine per capita giving. By the way, our membership start number for July 1, 2015 is 2,479 and our APF goal is $415,572 for which I’m confident we’ll exceed again this year!

Rotary Year # Members APF Goal APF Total Per Capita Polio Plus PP Per Cap Restricted Endowment Fund Total Giving

2012-2013 2,457 $332,713 $412,852 $168.03 $103,068 $41.95 $12,500 $13,550 $541,970

2013-2014 2,443 $356,209 $400,909 $164.11 $107,303 $43.92 $108,613 $17,425 $634,250

2014-2015 2,446 $396,525 $433,288 $177.14 $129,046 $52.76 $7,867 $4,615 $574,817

NOTE: ‘Total Giving’ indicated here does not include Endowment Fund contributions from gifts realized from a large Bequest from those generous deceased Rotarians, as these ‘windfall’ contributions skew the annual total giving numbers from active Rotarians.

On behalf of the countless lives your generous gifts have touched over the years, (and for whom most you will never meet), I say Thank You! I believe this is truly another example of continued acts of genuine compassion for others and Service Above Self.

Thank you for being a Rotarian and for your continued support of The Rotary Foundation, our legacy of hope! I’m very proud to serve along side you!

Tears of Appreciation and A Rotary Moment

Our program Tuesday August 18th was to present Isabella Dominguez with a $3500 scholarship as our Speech Contest and Club Scholarship winner and to learn more about this accomplished young women.

Topping off the day, Assistant Governor Joel Muller purchased raffle tickets, his name was drawn, and then he randomly picked the red marble to win a pot over $1300. A real Rotary moment came when Joel presented the red marble to Isabella saying, “apply it to your education.” Bella was over come with tears of appreciation as she is her main support working her way through college.

An Evening to RememberOn Thursday, August 13, RI President Ravi Ravindran and his wife, Vanathy, arrived into Reno late afternoon from South Korea via San Francisco and we were able to greet them at the gate and escort them to the Atlantis Casino, Resort, & Spa. This began an amazing 36 hour adventure for the Rotarians of District 5190 and various news agencies and non-profits in the Reno area.

On Friday morning, Ravi visited local public TV station KNPB for “a Conversation” with Brent Boynton. We are anxious to get the date for the airing for this and will publicize it as soon as we have it.

Later in the morning, President Ravi met with the editorial board at the Reno Gazette Journal (RGJ).  One of the outcomes was encouragement from Mark Robison to better utilize the RGJ when appropriate.  He furnished contact information for our use.  Our Area 8 AGs, Tina and Joel will distribute this to the Area 8 clubs and we will forward to the clubs in the regional area including Carson City, Lake Tahoe and some of our nearby areas such as Fernley, Fallon. This is a great opportunity to increase awareness of what our Rotary clubs are doing.

For the final event of the afternoon, President Ravi conducted a press conference at the Veteran’s Guest House,

a beneficiary of Rotarian donations of time, talent, and treasure. The Veteran’s Guest House provides United States military service veterans and their families’ temporary overnight accommodations when receiving a treatment at t medical facility in the Reno-Sparks area.

The actual dinner was heralded by the music of the Great Basin Brass and the Reno Youth Symphony Orchestra. The Flag Ceremony was conducted by Cub Scout Pack 154 and Boy Scout Troop 154 sponsored by the Rotary Club of Reno Sunrise. The evening concluded with an inspiring talk by President Ravi, primarily focused on our final battle with Polio.

Sponsorships were provided by: Roxie and Azad Joseph Trust; Robert Sims, Mike Melarkey, Vicki Puliz, Trustees; Rotary Club of Reno - Curt Chapman, President; Jack and Carolyn Westermeyer; David Spillers and digiprint; Ownership and Management of the Atlantis; and Rotary District 5190.

When you see the following individuals who were on the Committee, please give them a personal thanks for helping our district to

experience such a memorable occasion: Jerry Hall (advisor and aide); Dick and Carol Hatch (facilities); Ginny Lewis (registration); Dave Zybert, Tom Jacobs, and Regina Lockwood (media team); Randy Rascati (photography); Larie Trippet (Sergeant at Arms); Steve and Jo Ann Lemmon (Audio Visuals); Elizabeth Cavasso (program); Steve Lewis and Wyn Spiller (Major Donor reception); and Scott Barnes (out of district promotion).

Big club needed?

Is your club interested in doing an international project but you haven’t moved forward with it because you think your club is too small, too poor or you don’t have enough interested Rotarians?  The reality is that any size club can successfully apply for and effectively implement a Global Grant.

The process begins with an idea or concept followed by a thoughtful, organized and logical plan.  A local community needs assessment may a helpful source of ideas based on the needs of local officials and citizens.  Interested, committed and responsible local partner(s) are critical to the success of a project.

A careful reading and completion of the Global Grant Application ensures success. Your application must address the sustainability of the project and to be able to articulate the project's financial requirements and funding partners. Proper monitoring and reporting ensures that your Rotary is making an impact.

If you consider yourselves too small or poor look for partner clubs by working with your Assistant Governor or your friends in Rotary from other locations.  For more information visit www.rotarydistrict5190.org or www.rotary.org.  Contact International Service Chair Helen Hankins at [email protected]

Why do people join Rotary?

This is a great question and the answer holds the key to igniting membership in your club. Rotary International recently engaged a consulting firm, Sigel and Gale, to find answers to this question and more. The purpose was to better understand how Rotarians can reverse the shrinking of Rotary in North America.

Sigel and Gale interviewed 20,000 Rotarians. They found that the majority of people join and stay in Rotary for two primary reasons. They join to have a positive impact locally, and to forge friendships. They stay for the same reasons. Other factors are networking, personal and professional recognition, training opportunities, and to have a positive impact globally. Local factors make up over 90% of the reasons folks join our great organization.  Here is the "bottom line of what Rotarians value:1. Friendship2. Local Impact3. Vocational Respect (value me and my work)4. Leaders to work with

When we think of Rotary as a business, we often think of our customers as the beneficiaries of our service. It follows that our "product" would be the service we provide to our communities. In light of the knowledge provided by Sigel and Gale we need to change the way we look at this if we are to have a resurgence as an organization. Our customers are our members (and prospective members). Our product is friendship, opportunities to have local impact, giving vocational respect, and working together as leaders. Once we know and understand this, it is simply a matter of making sure our customers (and prospective customers) get what they want out of membership in our clubs. If we weave our product into our approach to attraction, engagement, and thus retention our clubs will grow and prosper like never before. As a result, Rotary will become even more relevant in making the world a better place, one community at a time. That's All!

The New Focus introduces simple tools that membership and public committees, club presidents, and club leadership can adopt with immediate actions to attract and retain members. The New Focus is based on four concepts gleaned from the Siegel + Gale report for Rotary International. Experiencing the Rotary Brand - Strengthen Rotary’s image by delivering a clear and compelling message that conveys what we do and how people can engage with us. By speaking, writing, and designing in a unified voice and look, we ensure that our communications are unmistakably Rotary. The seminar begins with a continental breakfast and registration at 8:30 a.m. District Governor Gail “Virus” Ellingwood will open the Seminar and we will be joined by Steve Lingenbrink, the West Coast Membership Advisory Chair and Tim Bewley, Rotary Public Image Coordinator. Expect a great catered lunch by Crosby’s, a lively thought-provoking keynote, and interactive sessions with ideas and steps you can put to use immediately to make a difference for your Club! There is no cost for you to attend, but we do need you to register to make sure we have enough seats, handouts, and lunch!
