What's Happening
Let's talk Vocational Services!
Posted on Jan 23, 2019
Community Service Fred Speirs Fred Speirs Grant Meeting Professional Development


In honor of Vocational Services Month, the Blue Crew were joined by Mr. Wayne Jackson - Director, School of Hospitality Studies at the University College of the Cayman Islands (UCCI).

He discussed Vocational Services in the Cayman Islands and the efforts made by UCCI to provide the Cayman Islands with quality Vocational Education to support these vital industries.
 


We were honored to present Mr. Jackson with a cheque for CI$2,000 to sponsor two local students in their pursuit of Vocational Studies at UCCI. 

These funds were raised via Rotaract Blue's Fred Speir's Vocational Grant. This is our annual initiative in honor of the late Rotarian Fred Speirs.

SAVE THE DATE!
The Annual Fred Speirs Walk/Run will take place on 24 March 2019. This event is the main source of fundraising for our Fred Speirs Vocational Grant.

If you are interested in helping with this event, please contact Professional Development Director Brian at rbprofessionaldevelopment@gmail.com

Meeting Professional Development
The Blue Crew are back for the second half of the Rota-Year and we are ready! 

Members, Prospectives, Rota-fam and Guests had a fun-filled meeting. The icebreaker was lead by PR Chair Alanna who lead a game of 20 Questions...but not really? (If you know you know!)

We were taught S.M.A.R.T Goals by Professional Development Director Brian, and we set our goals for: Work, Personal and Rotaract. It was the best way to start the coming year!

What are your goals for 2019?

We can’t wait to see what a bluetastic year 2019 will be! 💙
