Congratulations to the Rotary Clubs of Kilgore, Lindale and Longview which recently completed Club Visioning events! One of the common themes was the need to have better engagement of new members by having more formalized NEW MEMBER ORIENTATIONS to better onboard, educate, engage and strengthen retention.From Rotary.org/Myrotary/Learning Center/MEMBERSHIP: Access and download these resources to celebrate new members, develop an orientation program, and get them involved early and often.
