Rotaract Leadership Institute (RLI) 2009

On Saturday, we attended the second annual Rotaract Leadership Institute. Over a dozen Rotaract clubs and representatives from sponsoring Rotary clubs were in attendance from our district and Washington DC. Nearly 80 people registered and attended this year. All in attendance were treated to leadership training, a sharing of ideas, teambuilding exercises, and updates of events occurring in the district and in Rotary world-wide.



During RLI, Rotaractors mentored several students identified as potential leaders from the Meade School in Philadelphia. The students "shadowed" the Rotaractors through a portion of the day and got to spend time and experience how leadership could be used to help others. Our student was Kahlida, pictured below with Thomas Dixon and Maya Fridman.


After the conclusion of the institute, Rotaractors and Rotarians headed to World Cafe Live for drinks, food, and friendly conversation. It was a fun day indeed!
