"Make dreams real" this is a very unique theme , which is every one's wish that every dream should be made real. We as a rotarian must act in this direction and our efforts must be concentrated towards "how biggest & smallest dream of a layman in scoiety should be made real."

Ladies, worldover, have soft heart and strong will to make things positive and practical. It is our privilege to have NAYANTARA as the first lady governor of our 88 year's district. I am sure she will put all her imaginations to "MAKE DREAMS REAL". Dreams that thousands of Rotary members of our district 3290 visualise and try to make it real every year.

To my Rotary Intl. family & friends.. I am excited to See Ms NAYANTARA as DG of Dist 3290, and first time after almost a decade surf the website and thrilled to know the Convention at LA USA, at present I am in Birmingham,AL,USA.. My Father was a Rotarian and a Paul Harris fellow.. he served more than 10 years with DUM DUM Rotary at northern suberbs of CALCUTTA /KOLKATA Metro in INDIA, I grew up with the culture and practices of Rotary, at present He lost his Voice completely due to Cancer of Larynx.. but still posses very positive attitude.. he attended last RI Convention at Birmingham UK.. However, as his daughter at B'ham/USA I would love to share moments/activities/programs etc. with my old folks, nearest to my city Hoover ( southern suberbs of B'ham, Alabama, USA).... My earnest request to respected DG 3290 Ms. Nayantara (a flower and the 3rd. eye in bengalee.?) to introduce me with my neighbourhood folks so that I might get an opportunity to serve in future after dealing with my current situation... I am optimistic...I am sure the fellow Rotarians will assist me with their helping hand!!!!!! With Best Regards...!!!
