CALL FOR NOMINATIONS FOR POSITION OF GOVERNOR OF ROTARY DISTRICT 9620 FOR THE 2026 – 2027 ROTARY YEAR
Occupying the role of a Rotary District Governor is a once in a lifetime opportunity to give service to Rotary International, each Rotarian in our District and the wider community. While it does take time it also provides opportunities to learn from the wider Rotary family, to extend your leadership skills and to enjoy a friendship with others undertaking similar opportunities across the globe.
On an annual basis Rotarians and Rotaractors (more recently) within a District are called on to select the District Governor for a future year. We’re starting the selection process for the 2026 – 2027 year. Our current succession plan is that District Governor Paul Roger will be followed in 2024 - 2025 by current District Governor Elect Sue Mulraney and subsequently in 2025 – 2026 by current District Governor Nominee, Mark Williams.
We’re encouraging you to put your name forward to join this team.
The Rotary International process requires that you check that you meet the required qualifications; complete the Nomination Form (attached) and have it signed by your Club President.
In District 9620 we also require that you forward a succinct statement regarding your application and include a resume of your Rotary and Professional attainments. In 9620 this appointment means you will be both a Rotary District Governor and the Chair of our Company.
The nomination period remains open till 29 February 2024 at 5pm.
The process includes an interview with the selection panel – comprised of Rotarians from across District 9620. This will occur on Saturday 2 March 2024 at Bostock House.
The panel will not include family members or club members of any person applying for the position. There will be no more than one committee member per Club on the panel. As the Immediate Past District Governor, I have been invited to Chair the selection panel and oversee the selection process. Therefore, I am available to answer any questions that may arise.
I hope that you take the step of submitting your nomination – and please contact any of the Past District Governors for their personal advice regarding their experiences. It’s also important to remember that Rotary International does not allow lobbying for any position so remember to manage your applications well.
I look forward to receiving your nomination for the role and will acknowledge upon receiving your application.
