<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Arial">Fellow District 5130 Rotarians,</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"> </p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Arial">Each year, the current governor is responsible for producing a District Conference, in order to celebrate the accomplishments and successes of the clubs in the district, as well as noteworthy accomplishments and successes of individual members. It is also a time to conduct necessary district business, of which all members are a part. </font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"> </p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Arial">We endeavor to do so at a venue that is inviting, relaxing, and fun, while providing entertainment that is informational, engaging and enjoyable.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"> </p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Arial">The funding for these conferences, outside of the meal and lodging costs, comes from a modest assessment in your district dues of $10 annually. Over the last several years, with rising venue and entertainment costs, it has been an increasing challenge for that assessment to fully fund an engaging and rewarding conference.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"> </p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Arial">To that end, we’ve begun to seek out sponsors for specific conference components. Last year, clubs were invited to sponsor program enhancements. This year, I’d like to reach out to Rotarians and their businesses and invite your respective companies to sponsor conference components. I have listed the opportunities below. </font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"> </p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Arial">Not only does this opportunity allow for an enriched conference experience, it also allows you to promote your business to fellow Rotarians throughout the district.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"> </p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Arial">For example, Stearns Lending LLC, Perry Law, McDonald Levitt Insurance and Century 21 Classic Properties are sponsoring metal water bottles for each of the registrants. Their business contacts will be printed on the bottle, along with the Rotary conference logo.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"> </p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Arial">Here are the opportunities:</font></p>
