Of our 48 clubs in Rotary District 5040 in 2021-22, 39 (81%) earned the Rotary International Citation. In turn, our District has now received an international Rotary Citation for a District which achieves 50% or more of its clubs receiving their Rotary Citation. 
 
As last year's District Governor Lorne Calder says, "This is quite the accomplishment. Zone 28 includes 20 Districts, including all those in Canada, plus Alaska and parts of Northern United States, and we are one of only three Districts in the Zone to have received the Citation. Globally, we were among only 91 (17%) out of 526 Districts to have achieved this distinction. This is the second year our District has earned its Citation."
 
Lorne congratulated all the District 5040 clubs which achieved their Rotary Citation and all the District leaders who helped them in that success, especially Assistant Governors and Nancy Eidsvik who assisted many clubs with their administration and Rotary Club Central goals.
