Rotor Review Newsletter - Content Suggestions!
Hello!!
The Rotor Review Newsletter has been migrated over to the Media Team from this issue onwards and, whilst still containing all your favourite events-related news, I am hoping to spice things up a bit!
I have a feature in mind for this quarter's issue, however I would love to hear the thoughts of the membership as to what they would like to see on a quarterly newsletter???
Every suggestion will be considered, no matter how complex, daft or otherwise - even if it's something as simple as a 'Rotary Meme of the Quarter'.
So... Get suggesting below!

I also know of a Winning Blue that is factory fresh.
This idea has merit!

Re: Rotor Review Newsletter - Content Suggestions!
How about Featured Sections of the forum?
Some new members may never think to have a look around, while even experienced members can fall into the habit of being fed "Unread Posts" while forgetting many of the gems that have less day-to-day activity
Case in point :>>> viewtopic.php?f=22&t=84059
