fellowship and adventure are the heart of WBCCI. Learn about various
ideas for creating successful unit rallies and caravans. Brainstorm
with those from other units. Share ideas on such things as theme
rallies or caravans; youth rallies; community service projects;
joint rallies or caravans; intergenerational activities; special
events and so forth. Discuss the general elements of a successful
rally or caravan in small groups. Learn strategies for improving
communication. Open to all.
Workshop
3 – Leading and Motivating Volunteers

in ways that get them invested in the club. Effectively leading
volunteers requires a different approach from leading paid

adopt-a-dealer program; implementing a mentor program; utilizing the
media kit and other public relations ideas; employing strategies for
following up with potential members; developing a unit web site;
hosting a unit open house; and orienting your membership toward
recruiting. Open to all.

On the presenters
I will present the first two workshops. I am a past unit president
and currently a region 2nd Vice President who has conducted similar
programs at the region level and various workshops in the public and
private sector.
The WBCCI Membership Chair will conduct the
session on membership and the 2nd VP from another region will conduct
the session on leading volunteers. He was a professional trainer who
has previously facilitated sessions on leading volunteers in the
public and private sector.
We are all energetic forward
thinking members of WBCCI and happy to be a part of this series of
workshops!
