District
7690 hosted the 5th Annual Rotary Leadership Institute
on Friday, November 21. The venue was the beautiful and
well-appointed High Point Chamber. Chamber President and
Rotarian Tom Dayvault donated the use of the facility to
Rotary for the second year. Over 40 Rotarians
participated in the event, and we honored 13 who officially
graduated from the 3 part program. Faculty
facilitators came from as far as Asheville and Cary to
support our RLI. The energy was high as
participants shared their Rotary experience and
discussed ways to improve our clubs, district and world
through Rotary.
