RI President T +1-847-866-3467 F +1-847-328-4101 [email protected] Rotary
Dear fellow Rotarians, Ask any Rotarian what led them to Rotary, and you’ll usually get different answers. Why? Not only does Rotary mean different things to members in different parts of the world, it also has a unique meaning for each Rotarian. However, we are all brought together in three important ways. We believe in Rotary values and all share the same Four Way Test. We believe in friendships and love spending time together. And we take great satisfaction in helping others – we are committed to Service. The District Board has assumed important responsibilities and I thank them for this hard work. They have made a commitment to help grow Rotary, adapt to the digital future and make Rotary more appealing to younger generations. We have important work in front of us and so many opportunities to open for others and ourselves. I hope you will continue your journey with us, as we continue to serve our communities so that future generations can thrive as Rotary Opens Opportunities.
Regards,
Holger Knaack President, Rotary International 2020-21

Rotary Club of Patan : 5 6 : Rotary Club of Patan District Governor’s MESSAGE
ROTARY INTERNATIONAL District 3292
My Dear Fellow Rotarians, Greetings to you all.
Let me congratulate you for taking the responsibility of the leadership of your club. Rotary club's leadership is something which is most enjoyable. Along with fun it is very important that we understand our responsibilities and work hard to achieve our goals.
We are passing through a very unprecedented time. Something we have never witnessed in our whole life. The suffering and the threat that many are facing are at times unbearable. But as they say “when the going gets tough the tough get going” we Rotarians are also tough people and we also need to get going to help and assist people who are in difficulty during this time of pandemic. As this pandemic is going to remain here for a long time I think each club should identify the people, the community where our help is required the most and move ahead to assist them. In doing so we also need to make sure that we keep the virus at bay from ourselves and our family.
The Rotary year 2020-2021 is going to be a very different year for all of us. Lot of Rotary programmes are going to be on virtual platform. During the challenging times we have to do challenging things and the most challenging task will be for the clubs to have their regular weekly meetings. I know these meetings cannot be in person but we can always stay in touch with our club friends through virtual meetings. These virtual meetings will certainly help members to be engaged with Rotary.
Doing service projects will be another challenge. But this also should not be very difficult as we can plan our projects now and implement them once things become normal which I know will happen very soon.
Rotary Club of Patan a club which has been doing great work in our District and expectation from this club is very high. I urge each member of this club to adapt to the new environment during this crisis and take advantage of the new opportunities. Our RI President Rtn. Holgar Knaack has given us the theme “Rotary Opens Opportunities” and we all know it certainly does. So let us all "Trailblazers" get together to open this opportunity with the mindset of "Together We Can."
I wish each and every one of you a very enjoyable Rotary Year.

This year’s RI President’s theme is “Rotary Opens Opportunities”. It fits well to the present context where the whole world has been suffering from the COVID-19 pandemic, nonetheless the modern technologies have opened the opportunity for all of us to get closer through virtual means. At Rotary Patan all our meetings have been through virtual platform but very productive with significant attendance. In this severe situation also we have been successful in formulating various social service projects for this RY-2020/21. The only thing being missed out is our great fellowship events, RCP has always been proud of.
Due to current pandemic and prolonged lockdown restrictions, this commemorative 35th Issue of “Lalitdhara” could not be published by the stipulated timeframe.
