AFTER THE CHARTER…CAME THE MEETING

The very first official meeting of Rotary Sport Rwanda after its official charter was held on Saturday 17 January at the Cercle Sportif Club, Kigali. At the meeting, congratulations flowed around at the attainment of charter status, the certificate of which arrived just a couple of days before.

It was a joyous occasion where members freely expressed their enthusiasm at what is starting in Rwanda, through Rotary.  Offices and responsibilities were shared, and action points were assigned to members.

Charter President Sport-Rotarian Charlie Haba expressed his thanks to District, through Assistant Governor Suman, and called on members to ‘let’s start things immediately and show the wider Rotary that we in Rwanda, can be pacesetters in the building and sustenance of the Rotary family.

CP Charlie called on members who ideas on any projects or events that they would want to have RS adopt to submit their proposals to the central email address. Meanwhile, Global President Dr Tunde made a short submission on a proposed event to kickstart operations of RS in Rwanda, and this is being considered by the executive. President-Elect Zacharie Kamugisha also presented his idea, as did Sport Rotarian Marlon Weir.

It was an active and buoyant meeting that showed potential of many great things to come to Rotary, through Sport, and in Rwanda and beyond.
