MESSAGE of ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT Heartiest Congratulations to you on assuming the highest office of your District for the year 2011-12. I convey my greetings to you, District Executive Committee, all the club leaders and members of your District on the occasion of the begining of the new Inner Wheel year 2011-12. The IIW Theme for this year is 'Think Ahead - Aim High'. Truly this theme is very appropriate for executing our ambitious VISION for 2011-12. Clubs are our foundation and it is necessary and imperative for us to direct all our efforts, help and assistance for their effective functioning. Clubs are the backbone for the progress and development of a District and the Association. Sadly, the lack of the very basis of progress - Information of Inner Wheel. Educating members about Inner Wheel organisation and providing them all information about our activities, projects, regularly and timely on all aspects of our organisation is our first and foremost task. Membership growth is our great concern and this year all our energies will be directed towards significant membership growth. I urge all the Past District Chairmen, District Officers and Club Officers to work as a team in promoting growth in membership. Our efforts also need to be directed to the development of significant projects for youth, women, senior citizens covering all aspects of their needs and requirements. It is equally important that the Community should know the work done by us. Develop rapport with the media and ensure that club information is given good coverage from time to time. Keeping in mind our objectives - Friendship and Service, we need to extend our friendship within our club, community and District and go beyond our boundaries. Let us make Inner Wheel enjoyable by coming together to showcase our talents in sports, Inner Wheel Quiz, Elocution, dance , music art and culture. Let us get totally immersed and enveloped in the sheer fun of being an Inner Wheel Member. Above all, let us all be proud of being a member of our wonderful organisation and express our love, care and loyalty to this great organisation through our concentrated efforts of raising it to an enviable level. If we Think Ahead - Aim High, then only we can give a great year of PERFORMANCE. My love and affection to all. With all my best wishes for a great year Dr.Bina Vyas.
