What’s in a word?

This week’s Word of the Week is Rejuvenate: verb.
Definition: Give new energy or vigor to; revitalize. In a sentence: After a long winter, the blooming flowers and warm sunshine rejuvenate both nature and the spirit.
Bonus Challenge: As you craft your speeches and conversations this week, challenge yourself to rejuvenate in creative ways! Whether you’re talking about personal growth, nature’s renewal, or even revitalizing your goals, let this word inspire you.
No Joke!

So much is blooming and becoming new again! We have so many things happening in the District in the next 2 months! We have the Annual Business Meeting, Youth Leadership Summit for our kiddos, the Spring Conference, as well as the last 4 Division contests and the final District Contests coming soon after our Division contests come to a close. These are all opportunities where we can connect, network, and come together to learn and grow. In the past years, we have seen a decline in our event attendance. This is no laughing matter… I always look forward to seeing you out amongst each other and connecting. Please take a moment to join us for one or all of these events! Conference will definitely not disappoint, and we want to see as many people there… let’s crowd the room and show up for those education sessions, Hall of Fame awards, our newly minted DTMs and so much more!
See you soon!

District 50, District Director
