Bill Barney selected as Team Leader for GSE team to India

by Brennan Robison

District Governor Roy Strickland informed President Means this week that Bill Barney has been selected as Team Leader for the Group Study Exchange (GSE) team to India.

"I am excited and ready to be more immersed in Rotary," Bill told President Means.

Each year, the Rotary Clubs of Georgia send four or five young professionals that are NOT Rotarians to travel to India along with a Rotarian team leader. Applications for the young professionals were due last month, and we are awaiting the announcement of which candidates were selected.

The India trip is for about one month beginning in January 2010, going to Rotary District 3060, the State of Gujaret, south and west of Delhi, along the coast. All travel expenses are provided by Rotary International, and food, housing, and local transportation are provided by Rotary members and their families in India.
