Healthy Club Workshop
Hi everyone!
The MD4 leadership team has created a “Healthy Club workshop” event & set aside a full day of leadership
training on January 13th for area 3 (that’s us + A-2, L-1, & L-3). The day long event will be in Glendale with
our own PCC George Stewart as the event coordinator. It’s important to note that this will be IN LIEU of the
leadership training at Cal Poly in Pomona this year, so any candidates for Cal Poly need to come. My goal is to
have ALL of our cabinet officers in attendance, and as many club presidents, secretaries, as possible. And how
about our FUTURE LIONS LEADERS! Who are they? You’ll have to ask if you don’t know already. I need
the zone chairs “in the trenches” with the club presidents to get their lists together, and we’ll work out some
carpooling from each of the regions if possible.
The cost of the event is $10.00 and includes lunch. I will have a registration form out to you within a couple
of days. Please help me start the new year, and the second half of my year with some top quality training from
the best trainers in the state.
Yours in service,
Jeff Roundy, District Governor, 4-A3
