For those of you who keep telling me you cannot see any evidence of ShelterBox in Haiti
If you go to the East Hartford club's website, www.easthartfordrotary.org, look on left side of the homepage, and under club links, scroll down to rotary on youtube, click link to see Mark Pearson of ShelterBox in Haiti.
The Rotary International youtube videos change fairly frequently; so, please do this at your earliest convenience, assuming you are interested.
Another lively Rotary week. In our district, pre-PETS was on Thursday, February 11th. A very successful meeting thanks to persistence of incoming governor, Prasad Menon. Registration for NEPETS10 opened that afternoon, and that's when all the "fun" began for me as Registration Chair.
As of today, we have 441 Rotarians signed up for this event, 75% of our target, with two weeks to go.
Hope all is well in your Rotary whirled.

Gearing up for PETS (the Presidents-elect Training Seminar)
All presidents and presidents-elect have been invited to this Thursday's Pre-PETS (an introduction to the Presidents-elect Training Seminar) and the mid-year Presidents Meeting!
This is an exciting time in the district, an opportunity for the current presidents and their successors to meet with club leaders from all around District 7890.
As District Governor-nominee, I am involved only to support both Governor Herb and incoming Governor Prasad. Among other duties, I serve as Registration Chair for the Northeast Multidistrict PETS Committee in mid-March. This is no small task as there are over 500 attendees plus many senior leaders from around the Rotary world to inspire and train incoming presidents for Rotary year 2010-2011.
If you are a club president-elect, your invitation should reach you via email about 5 PM on Thursday, February 11th. All meals, plenary sessions and breakout sessions for presidents-elect will occur at the Radisson, while most sessions for Assistant Governors will occur at the Courtyard Marriott.
Watch for the invitation from PETS Chair Steve Silverman, open it, and register ASAP for the best chance to room at the Radisson Hotel, one of the two hotels housing attendees at this event. Another way to increase your chances of being assigned to the Radisson, as well as to save some money, is to opt to room with another president-elect.
See you Thursday at the Clarion in West Springfield, then on to PETS, March 11, 12 and 13 in Nashua, New Hampshire.
