First Morehead City NC RLI launched 

 

October 14, 2006 (Morehead City, NC). Fourteen Rotarians eagerly participated in the first RLI event held in Morehead City, North Carolina on October 14, 2006. The event site, the NC State University Center for Marine Sciences and Technology, showcased the facility as an excellent venue for adult leadership education and training. 

The Rotarians engaged in the Part I RLI curriculum under the supervision of an excellent RLI Faculty consisting of East NC State Coordinator and RLI Board Member Glenn Hood of Raleigh, AG Nancy Barbee of Pollocksville, NC and District 7730 RLI Chair PAG John Smith of Newport, NC. All three of the faculty are educators by profession and brought a high level of expertise and interactivity to the session. According to the faculty, Rotarians began with a high level of energy that continued all day long.

Evaluations marked the event as one of the highly rated events in some time. President-Elect Maher Saikali of the Newport NC Rotary Club was one of the participants. “The faculty really knew what they were doing… It was fast-paced and it seemed like the day was over before it even started!” Students represented Rotary clubs in Districts 7720 and 7730, including Rotary clubs from Jacksonville, Kinston, New Bern, Beaufort, Sneads Ferry, Newport, and Morehead City.
