2025-2026

RI President-elect Mário César Martins de Camargo theme for 2025-26
will be announced in February 2025.
 

Congratulations on your appointment

as President Elect for your club.

 
This marks the beginning of an exciting journey for you and your club. 
Like me, I imagine you might be feeling thrilled and a bit nervous about what lies ahead. 
Rest assured, the entire District 6630 team and I (Your District Governor Elect) are here to support you every step of the way.
 
I look forward to meeting each of you and hope you take advantage of the upcoming Pints/Pours for Polio events - we are in the final stages of planning. 
We will be sending out the full schedule later this week. 
The first event will happen Saturday 8/17 from 2pm-5pm at a location that is being finalized. 
Save the date to come out and socialize with our district members and possibly some new members too. 
t will be great to meet each of you for our impending journey.

You will hear this term often "PETS" which is the acronym for
Presidents Elect Training Session.
 
These training sessions are MANDATORY for you to serve as President of your Club.

Your LEAD team is working diligently on training to ensure you have the
information and help you need for your year as Club President. 
Please watch your email for ongoing updates.
 
 
 

We look forward to your term as President!

 
 
 
 
 
How to Prepare for Your Year As President-Elect

We have tools in the Learning Center (you will be required to login at Rotary.org for access).
These are intended to familiarize you with the leadership role and to help you in the coming year.
 
Find the Club Leadership column, select View Club Leadership Courses. I am suggesting that you then review these two modules:
Club President Basics
Club President Intermediate
We will also have a session on these in the upcoming Pre-PETS (Presidents Elect Training Seminar). 
 
 
Pre-PETS via Zoom

We will have six sessions (each will be one hour) between September and January designed to prepare you for the All Ohio P.E.TS. in March. 
 
The Zoom topics are listed below along with the time and dates. 
You will receive a Zoom connection email shortly before the class is held. 
Some will just be done with our District and others will be done with the other four Ohio Districts.

This five-District regional event, will be held at the Renaissance Hotel in downtown Columbus for Presidents Elect.
 
It serves all the Rotary Clubs in Ohio — more than 250 clubs. This fantastic event is an opportunity to discuss your goals and aspirations with other Presidents-Elect from across Ohio.   
 
The 2025 AOP theme reflects the new Rotary Action Plan of Impact-Reach-Engage-Adapt and focuses on facilitated discussion, enabling you to share practical applications and ideas.
 
I want to emphasize that are not lectures – the entire program is designed so you can JOIN LEADERS – EXCHANGE IDEAS – TAKE ACTION.
 
 By completing the basic and intermediate learning plans in the Learning Center, you will be well prepared to engage in these discussions and come away inspired and ready to lead.
 

Yours in Rotary Service,

Bob Oborn
