Looking for Rotary Swag?
Are you always looking for a new Rotary t-shirt, polo shirt or sweatshirt?  When you ask someone "Where did you get that?"  The answer is always at PELS/PETS or a Zone or international event.
 
Well on Friday, March 6th, you can drop by the House of Friendship at this year's NEPELS and shop at both Russell Hampton and Awards California.  They will be located on the lower level of the hotel and be open from 9am to 5pm.  They are bringing all the latest Rotary gear, including stuff with next year's theme, Create Lasting Impact.
 
HOTEL INFO:  Renaissance Framingham Hotel & Conference Center (formerly Sheraton Tara), 1657 Worcester Road Framingham, MA 01701.
 
There is plenty of onsite parking for the Conference Center. Come in the main door and follow the Rotary signs down the corridor to your right.  You'll find the stairs that will bring you down to the lower level.  Our Swag Vendors are on either end of the corridor.

RYLA Applications Are Now Live
Applications for this year's RYLA are officially live and can be found here!  Visit the D7930 RYLA page for information and the RYLA Linktree.
 
RYLA 2026 will be May 15th-17th at Camp Rotary in Boxford, MA. We are so excited to connect with this year's rising leaders and have a committed group of returning students to help lead the weekend.
 
As you begin to think about who you can invite to apply for this life-changing experience, remember that the impact of RYLA extends far beyond the weekend itself. It's an opportunity for young leaders to grow, connect, and inspire one another, and we can't wait to see who will join us this year!
 
We have volunteers eager to speak about RYLA at your Rotary and Interact Clubs. It's a great way to spread the word and encourage more students to take advantage of this opportunity. Please feel free to reach out to Christina at Christina@PartnerWithChoice.com or call 978.270.6706 to arrange a presentation.
 
Thank you for your ongoing support in the future of these young leaders. Together, we are making a difference!

One of the results of the survey shows a lack of programs regarding Lithium Battery collections.

Please add that to your calendar, this invite is extended to everyone. March 26th, 7pm. The zoom link will be sent prior to the event.
