This morning Phil and I reviewed the 3500 GSE Team trips and echanges happened in the last 4 weeks and the results turned out more interesting and nourishing to Rotarians in both D7690 and D3500.

Phil, 2005-2006 D7690 District Governor, encouraged me to arrange a joint meeting between GSE teams 3500 and 3460 - the latter visited D7690 for 1 month GSE vocational and cultural exchanges in 2006 and said that it would wonderful to see that the inbound and outbound teams of GSE educational programs of both districts in 2005-2006 and 2002008 forming an allumni and scheduling an allumini annual joint event in Piedmont, NC, or Taiwan.

As D3500 GSE team leader currently and GSE Chair for the next three years from this July 1, I feel moved and believe it is a really good idea to make something different happen.
So, YES, with joint efforts from passinate and insightful Rotarians of both D3500 and D7690 we can make it - build up a GSE Triad consisting of GSE members and Rotarians of D7690, D3500 and D3460.

Tim, outbound team coordinator, and Ann, inbound team coordinator of D7690 are happy with this idea, Pam Ray, team leader of 7690 GSE team - 2008 and Owen George, the same for 2006 team are positive and supportive to the idea as well.

I believe that Phil will probably have sent an E-mail to Jim Lai, D3460 GSE team leader, encouraging him with the said nourishing idea.

What a wonderful big step this is! GSE needs a solid growth and the GSE Triad pilot plan can be a kick-out to make phenomena growth of GSE happen. David McCoy, DG of D7690 actually came to GSO Greensboro International Airport to say farewell to us even though his schedule was extremely tight and Ann and Phil also risked overtime parking bill to stay with us and say goodbye at the lobby of GSO - now just thinking about this touching scene I feel a strong feeling. For sure GSE Triad can be and will be built shortly.
