Why Should I Come to the District Conference in Yankton?
 
What a great question! The short answer is
● To get inspired.
● To do things you wouldn’t normally do.
● To celebrate the accomplishments “Imagine Rotary” is all about.

     At the District Conference you will hear from Rotary International presenters how we have and will “Create Hope in the World.”
     You will participate in ways your Club and community cannot only “imagine” but implement ideas to create hope.
     And together, we will have the opportunity to spend time and reconnect with positive forces who think and believe in a common vision. I can’t “Image” a better place or time to get inspired! See "D5610 2023 Conference Agenda" in the News/Downloads section for a full conference agenda
     Please make your Lodging reservation as soon as possible. Call one of them and confirm your reservation, referencing your attendance to the Rotary District Conference. See "D5610 2023 Conference Lodging" in the News/Downloads section for a list of Yankton lodging. 
     The District Conference is free for all Rotarians to attend, but we do need advanced registrations to help with planning. Please REGISTER HERE or use the District Conference tab at the top of the page. 
     We are looking forward to seeing all of you in Yankton!
OUR District 5610 Goals

Rich Burns, 2023-24 District Governor, believes in Action.


“Create Hope in the World” is staying the course and continuing our support of past District goals set for youth initiatives, membership growth (so everyone feels included), and increasing our Foundation capacity. Tack on Rotary International’s continuing initiatives for Ending Polio,
Empowering Women and Girls, and Ending Human Trafficking,
it becomes pretty obvious we need to become not just a District with Clubs but a Village!
 
Therefore, my District goal is strengthening the connection between the District and Clubs. My three-prong approach will be forward facing.
 
1.  I'll start my strategy this quarter by holding conversations with a number of Clubs to gather ideas, expectations, and visions for the future. During the second quarter, I’ll take what I gathered and build a synopsis of implementable actions, so by the third and fourth quarter, we
have something to try.

2.  My next approach for strengthening connection is to move away from a written monthly e-bulletin. Creating hope requires storytelling and an engaged audience to tell it to. I’m not sure a written e-bulletin is taken in by much of an audience. Therefore, I would like to try implementing a two-to-four minute video which highlights a monthly story we want to tell.

3.  My last approach for connection is to provide District Assistance to Clubs needing help setting and entering goals. According to Rotary International, Clubs to receive Grant funding need to have taken Rotary’s grants training and have their goals for this Rotary Year identified in Rotary Club Central. I want to make sure every Club has an equal opportunity when it comes to accomplishing their goals and Creating Hope in the World.

Rotary Fellowships are international groups that share a common passion. Being part of a fellowship is a fun way to make friends around the world, explore a hobby or profession, and enhance your Rotary experience.
