  1. District 3810, Philippines THE GOVERNOR’S VISIT Rotary Year 2009-2010

  2. THE TRADITIONAL GOVERNOR’S VISIT • The District Governor is traditionally required by Rotary International to make an official visit to every club in the district preferably during the first 6 months of the Rotary year [Art XII, Section 7 (d) of the R.I. by-laws.] • OBJECTIVES OF THE GOVERNORS OFFICIAL VISIT • To give counsel to the club; • To observe the holding of an effective club assembly aimed at presenting the club's plan of action for the year; • To deliver a comprehensive Rotary address or conduct a club forum on Rotary information before the club.

  3. The District Governor is visiting the club not so much as an "officer", but as a friend and counselor. The Governor's interaction with the club is held in the spirit friendship and constructive counseling. He gives suggestions on how to further strengthen and improve the club's effectiveness in rendering Rotary service to the community. Although the Governor is visiting as a friend, he is however accorded the welcome and protocol appropriate to his position as the highest ranking officer of Rotary International in the district.

  4. PREPARING FOR THE GOVERNOR'S VISIT • The following steps are suggested in order to assure success of the Governor's Visit to your Rotary club: • A.ARRANGE VENUE • Arrange the venue to provide the following: • A separate room for the Private Conference; • Room for the Club Assembly and Regular Meeting may be one and the same; however it should be set up so that latecomers will not disrupt the ongoing proceedings of the club assembly. • Provide the necessary audio-visual equipment needed for your presentation such as projector, white board, etc.

  5. B. CONFIRM SCHEDULE • As soon as possible, confirm the following by communicating to your Assistant Governor and/or the Senior Deputy Governor: • Date, time and exact location of venue for the Governor's Visit (if venue is not generally known, please send a sketch so that the Governor’s team will not get lost); • For island clubs, please coordinate with the AG and advise arrangements made for the lodging and local transportation of the DG, and his party for the Governor's Visit.

  6. C. CAMPAIGN FOR ATTENDANCE At least 2 weeks prior, emphasize to all your officers, committee chairmen and members the need for a high attendance turnout during the Governor's Visit. It is the desire of the District Governor and his team to interact with all the Rotarians and their spouses. Besides, a high attendance level gives a good first impression about your club.

  7. CONDUCT OF THE GOVERNOR’S VISIT From July onwards, the DG then will conduct the Governor’s Visit preferably on the same day of induction together with his party, to each club as a follow-up to the Team Visits. The Governor's Visit normally has three parts: A. Private Conference with the club president and secretary B. Club Assembly for a general review of the club plans and objectives C. Regular Meeting where the Governor is the guest speaker; The Club Assembly and Regular Meeting may be combined if the size of the club makes it practical to do so. This system allows the DG to concentrate more on important issues.

  8. The Governor's Official Visit has normally three parts: A. Private Conference. A 30 minute private meeting between the District Governor and the Club President; and at the same time the District Secretary/Chief of Staff and the Club Secretary. B. Club Assembly. A 1 1/2 - hour open meeting with the club's officers, directors, and committee chairmen for the purpose of presenting and reviewing the club's plan of action. C. Regular Meeting. A 1 1/2 - hour regular meeting at which the DG is the guest speaker.
