Katharina Wagner - Rotary Scholar

Rotary International no longer has the Ambassador Program.  

In Germany,​ seven clubs in ​District 1842 modeled the program under a​ Scholarship Program​ to send Katharina out to us.  

​Remember not to refer to her as an​ Ambassador Scholar, as now for all intents and purposes ​she is technically a R​otary S​cholar from Germany as part of the Global Gr​ant System.

Katharina is from Munich, Germany. Interesting point about there is no building is permitted​ to be built taller than certain height. So won't find the same skyscrapers like we do here. She has done a lot of traveling to different countries.

She is now in Vancouver and studies Architecture at UBC as part of the Rotary Global Grants System.

​Welcome Katharina, and thanks for your presentation!​

Greeter Duties

Greeters are the first point of contact for guests, potential new members, and our members. Making all who attend our meeting feel welcome is the responsibility of all of us as we all take turns being greeters.

1.       All greeters should arrive no later than 6:40 am and be prepared to assist in setting up and preparing for the meeting. If a greeter cannot be present for their day of duties, please contact another member to fill in for you.

2.       Greeter # 1 will ensure that the sandwich board at the entrance

3.       Greeter # 2 will ensure that flags and banners are in place.

4.       Greeters should welcome all members and guests and make them comfortable with the proceedings and surroundings, i.e., seating, coffee, schedule of meeting etc.

5.       Greeter # 1 greets and sits with the speaker to gather information useful in providing a respectful and meaningful introduction of the speaker and the program.

6.       Greeter # 2 thanks the speaker and presents the certificate of appreciation for their presentation. NOTE: The certificate is NOT a contribution of $20.00 in the speakers’ name. We donate $20.00 to the Rotary Foundation in recognition of their presentation at the meeting.

7.       Greeter # 3 assists in taking down the flags, banners and places the sandwich board back in Kathy's office.

·         Greeters may change duties amongst themselves if desired.

To get a hold of Franciele, simply call her on her Cel: 778-829-2532 or email her at francielemelaine@hotmail.com  
Franciele is currently staying with Hansi Natzke at 705 - 1185 Quayside Drive, New Westminster and you can contact them @ 604-521-8858.
