9. SUGGESTIONS FROM RI STAFF
3.Districts should ensure regular updation of records.
5.CSOs should be in active communication with district
leadership.
3. Naming patterns that some of the Rotary clubs are
adopting in adding CSOs, (Name of one school followed by
name of planets, directions, groups as prefix or suffix).
This exercise not only increase the paper work but also if the
sponsoring Rotary club dies, all these CSO also die at the
same instance. Example RC Tirupur recently chartered 20 Interact clubs
in a single school with different "houses".
