The Regionalisation Steering Group has now informed the District Governors that we can informally let you know of the allocations for the Rotary Community Groups (RCGs).
Camberwell has been grouped geographically in Group RCG2 which comprises the following Clubs:
Balwyn, Brighton, Brighton North, Canterbury, Camberwell, Caulfield, Chadstone, East Malvern, Glenferrie, Hawthorn, Kew, Malvern, North Balwyn, Prahran and Toorak.
There will also be formal notification coming to you soon from the Rotary International South Pacific and Philippines Office (RISSPO).
The RCGs are a new way of supporting Rotary to thrive, by increasing our community impact, raising Rotary’s profile, and growing membership and member engagement.
Some clubs have asked if this means they should stop other existing collaborations. Not at all! Please continue successful collaborations that you already have.
The next step is for each RCG to hold an 'establishment meeting', which will amongst other things look at the leadership and support that the group will need, in preparation for the election of their Rotary Community Leader.
We will get back to you to organise the establishment meetings shortly. Please be patient in the interim.
These are exciting times and your District Support Team is keen to support and work with you as we create new ways to grow Rotary.
Thank you for the wonderful work you continue to do in leading your club.
Kind regards,
Ron Payne
District Governor D9800
