Be prepared to welcome the speaker at 11:45 a.m.
Make sure the guest speaker is signed in appropriately and escorted through the buffet. There is no charge to the speaker for lunch.
Assure introductions are made at the "Speaker's" table. Please sit next to the speaker.
Prepare an introduction (maximum length 3 minutes) to include:
- speaker's name, present title, a few biographical listings, honors or recent publications
- title of presentation
- any unique or unusual information about the speaker
Your remarks should be brief.
Be prepared to remain at the meeting until after the speaker departs following a final and personal thank you .
If for some reason you find yourself unable to attend on the day of presentation, you are responsible for finding a Rotary member to take your place in introducing the speaker.
Thank you for your willingness to assume this responsibility on behalf of our Club.
