By now we are not surprised when regular events of any sort are reimagened to endure the COVID-19 pandemic requirements.

The latest is the Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI), a program in which the Southern Rensselaer County Rotary Club has been heavily involved on an annual basis.

As is the case for so many activities, RLI this year has been converted to a virtual event. On Saturday, September 26, a pilot RLI virtual event will be hosted by the Vernon-Verona-Sherrill club of Central New York. This provides Rotarians of all clubs an opportunity to experience the first such RLI activity. It will run from 9 a.m. till 2 p.m., with breaks throughout the session.

The price for the event has been substantially reduced to just $25 per person. As always, SRC will cover the fee for any member who participates. To be involved you must register online in advance of the session.
