The overall membership growth in our Zone was 1.71% as of 31 March.
Zone Membership Chair Herb Klotz organized a panel discussion on New Clubs fueling membership growth. Our District was represented by the Heritage E-Club that has grown from 20 members when it was chartered in December 2018 to 33 members today. Heritage Membership Chair Rahat Hossain was joined in a panel discussion that included leaders from two other new clubs started in the past 3-4 years from our zone All three clubs have been very successful in growing their membership since being chartered - Mary Ammielle of Roc City (Rochester), and Melanie Druziako of Tri-County (Vineland-Millville-Buena-Newfield), NJ. They are very different types of clubs and have all been successful with growth. The discussion moderated by Louisa Horne, Zone New Club Advocate. The District Board has approved a Crisis Management Plan for the District which will go into effect in the event of a crisis which requires special measures to be undertaken to handle such an eventuality.This document was developed to serve as an important procedural resource to assist District 7230 volunteers and participants in responding effectively when a crisis occurs in order to minimize risk and help ensure the safety of all, to the greatest extent possible.
Chalk up a big achievement for D7230! Our District has recorded a net gain of 61 members between 1 July 2021 and 31 January 2022. We now stand at 1160 members, up from 1099 at the beginning of this Rotary year a growth rate of 5.55%. This puts our District as the leader of the pack in membership growth in both Zones 28 and 32. The 21 Districts in Zone 32 have a total of 32,766 members in 1134 Clubs. Overall, our Zone saw a membership growth of only 0.83%
