It is time to
begin the process of selecting our District Governor for the Rotary Year
2026-2027.
The elected
individual will become District Governor on July 1, 2026.
Rotary International requires
that the person nominated follow a two-year process of training and preparation
before assuming the role of District Governor. During the 2024-2025
Rotary year, the selected individual will be the District
Governor Nominee (DGN). This role includes observation and training, and
participation at District events. It also includes participation at the Rotary
Zone 33-34 training institute 2024-2025 and Presidents-Elect Training Seminar and participating as a non-voting
member of key district committees.
During the 2025-2026 Rotary year, the
selected individual will be the District Governor-Elect (DGE). Training and
observation activities continue, including participation at the Zone training
institute and at the Rotary International Assembly (an assembly and training
program for District Governors-Elect from over 500 Rotary Districts in the
world) in Orlando in January 2026.
Our district utilizes
a Nominating Committee process. Your help in identifying those qualified
applicants would be appreciated. Please look within your club and within your
Rotary network to identify those Rotarians who met the qualifications and have
the desire to get involved at the district level.
Interested applicants must have the support of their club indicated by resolution and submit it along with their completed application and including a brief resume to District Executive Secretary, Teri White by November 1, 2023. Interviews of selected applicants, by the committee, will take place on Saturday, November 18, 2023.
