Presentation Description: American Journalism At A Crossroads: The Future Is Now

American journalism is at a crossroads. We live in an era where we are seeing daily newspapers, long the bastion of local independent reporting and accountability, failing in Colorado and around the country. At the same time, broadcast newsrooms are shrinking as well. Fewer traditional journalists are reporting less news. Independent reporting that is so critical as a source of information, analysis, understanding, and particularly local community knowledge has been seriously diminished.

What role will Public Radio play in this changing landscape?

The Rotary District Assembly is a half-day training event hosted by our District.  The event is scheduled for Saturday morning, June 5th from 8:00 AM until 1:00 PM. Start your day with some coffee and a continental breakfast, and then participate in some excellent training to prepare you for specific leadership roles in our club. There are training sessions dedicated to a wide variety of jobs, including Club Secretary, Club Treasurer, Committee Chairs, Membership, the Rotary Foundation... and many more. This is also an EXCELLENT opportunity for a new Rotarian to learn a lot about Rotary in general, in a short period of time. For those who volunteer to attend the District Assembly, this activity will count as a make-up for your attendance AND the Denver Mile High Rotary Club will reimburse you for your registration fee.
