Become a Paul Harris Fellow! 

Across the district and within all of Rotary International being a Paul Harris Fellow is meaningful. It signifies that you support The Rotary Foundation, its causes and the work it funds around the world. 
 
So, are you interested in becoming a Paul Harris Fellow?
Well, we have a program this year that can help you get there a little faster. I'll be sharing various incentives throughout the Rotary Year.
The first incentive for Rotary Year 2023-24 is:
  • Register and attend the Foundation Hoop-la
    • Receive 100 bonus Paul Harris Fellow Recognition Points.
    • This is only available for registrations made by September 30. So register TODAY!
    • You have already received plenty of information about Hoop-la, but here is the link again! bit.ly/23hooplaregister
I look forward to celebrating The Rotary Foundation and all the accomplishments of our district at the District 6040 Foundation Hoop-La on November 4th with you!
Want to know more? I'd love to have a conversation with you or you can check out The Rotary Foundation: https://www.rotary.org/en/about-rotary/rotary-foundation
 
Email AmyKCV@gmail.com once you have attended Hoop-la. Bonus points will be awarded in December to Rotarians who have provided proof of qualifying activities.
