the much awaited and delayed OCV was a big Hit, and the very appreciative and encouraging talk by DG Dr Manish Motwani and everyone who attended have been left with good memories of an evening to revel in for some time to come.You had the privilege to welcome our District Governor for his Official Club Visit on the evening of 31stMarch and we agree that the meeting witnessed a warm fellowship with an attendance of 87 members and guests, including our P*S, reflecting the vibrant spirit of our club.In his address, the District Governor spoke with great appreciation of your efforts, commending the inspiring leadership and the enthusiastic support of the Board of Directors. He especially congratulated the club for its impactful initiatives, notably the Pink Auto Project, which empowers women through training as auto drivers, 300 women at last count have registered, and the club’s dedicated efforts towards Saving Mumbai’s Mangroves, a CSR initiative with the Mangrove foundation of Maharashtra, among other sustained projects like TLH, Op Restore, Happy School etc. all of which exemplify Rotary Deonar's commitment to service and sustainability.Adding a personal and endearing touch to the evening, the District Governor addressed several members by their first names, creating a warm and engaging atmosphere that resonated with everyone present. The felicitation of our beloved PRID Raju, for being elected to the COL at RI and Dr Usha Desai as one of the prime contributors to our club's initiatives over the years, being the club's First Lady President is a badge of honour in itself.The BOD meeting with DG was conducted in accordance with the prescribed format, and all scheduled interactions, including separate meetings with the Partners in Service, were smoothly organised and adhered to Hats off to both Gunjan and you as you worked hard to bring this OCV to fruition
The evening concluded on a note of encouragement and pride, with the District Governor expressing his appreciation for the club’s dynamic service initiatives and the strong sense of fellowship that defines the Rotary Club of Deonar.Thanks for leading our club to good recognition this RY.
