Welcome to the Rotary District 5930 ENERGY Report.
WOW! The first 30 days have been full of excitement and a “Things To Do List”. Our Rotary Club Central has finally Launched and it proves to be easier and more efficient. I want to THANK our Rotary Clubs that worked diligently to post their goals for Rotary Year 2017-2018. I also want to THANK our District Trainer, Adam Lara along with our Leadership Team of Rotary ROCKSTARS. As of July 28th, I have performed 5 Club Installations, 10 Club Visits , 3 Club Socials, oh and attended a Corpus Christi Hooks baseball game.
