Zone 21B and 27, Overland Park, KS
September 4 - 9, 2012
Zone is a training and informational meeting for the string of Governors and Spouses that are preparing to serve our districts. This trainings are mandated by Rotary International just as PETS is mandated for the incoming Presidents in our districts.
The DGE Kit Turpen and DGN Lonnie Leslie begin their week with that training by having a bonding dinner with their classes on Tuesday evening. Then Wednesday and Thursday is all about training for the incoming governors. The current Governors attend a bonding dinner on Wednesday evening and then on Thursday take part in a problem solving session that looks to others in your class to assist is solving some issues that may arise during your year in office.
Friday and Saturday are informational meetings that are designed to give all of us a look at what is going on in other parts of the Zone. On Saturday evening, the graduated DGE's are formally presented to those assembled. At this meeting, DGE 5520, Christopher "Kit" Turpen was formally introduced as our District Governor for 2013-2014. Yes, he made it this far and we are so proud. One last step for Kit and that is Governor Elect Training Seminar "GETS" in San Diego in January. He is preparing well.
