Lieutenant Governor's Report

Mid-winter Meeting: Nassau

Our mid-winter meeting on the magnificent Paradise Island (Nassau) was a great success. Lieutenant Governors met with members of our District Executive under the able leadership of Governor Hazel Brandon. DST Les Gagné, together with his assistant Lise Pichette, made sure that papers were in order, AV equipment was set up where and when it should be and that the meeting ran smoothly and without incident.

Our meeting opened with a leadership seminar by Ottawa based "Pirate", Bob Garrow. Bob talked about paradigm shifts and changing the way we think about Kiwanis, drawing on historical pirate examples to illustrate his points.

Our key-note lunch speaker was The Hon. Melanie S. Griffin, Minister of Social Services
and Community Development. The Minister gave a passionate speech illustrating the need for assistance and thanking Kiwanis for its continued support in the Caribbean.
