To Presidents of Rotary Clubs in Zone 29
Dear Rotarians:
The Zone 29 nominating committee will meet between 15 September and 15 October to nominate the next RI director from your zone who will serve on the RI Board in 2026-28.
If your club wishes to submit a qualified Rotarian for consideration by the Nominating Committee for Director in your zone, the club must follow these guidelines:
- The club must submit the Official Suggestion Form no later than 1 September 2024. Upon submission, the Official Suggestion Form will be sent to the nominating committee convener.
- The form must also be accompanied by a written statement from a physician certifying that the suggested candidate is in good health and physically able to carry out the duties of an RI director.
- The form must be signed by the candidate, indicating that he or she agrees to abide by RI's provisions against campaigning for elective position, and that he or she accepts the "RI Board of Directors Job Description."
RI Bylaws section 13.010. states, in part, as follows:
“Rotarians shall not campaign, canvass, or electioneer for elective position in RI, or allow any such activity, for either themselves or others.”
The RI Board also calls your attention to Rotary Code of Policies section 26.060.4. “Rules Regarding Campaigning, Canvassing, and Electioneering,” which provides more details on these restrictions.
Zone 29 Nominating Committee 2024-25
Sincerely,
RI Corporate Governance
