Showcasing Interact talent

It was a rare opportunity put to good use by over 1,300 Interactors from RID 3201 as they interacted with Rotary leaders at the inter-Interact District Council, along with a literary meet, titled Pegasus 2024 hosted by RC Kovaipudur.

The event themed ‘Chiselling the leaders of tomorrow’ extended a platform for young Interactors to meet Rotarians and learn from them Rotary ideals like ‘Service above Self’ and the Four-Way Test. DGE Chella Raghavendran (RID 3206) urged the youngsters to give importance to three Ds — discipline, dedication and determination — in their lives, while DGN R S Maruthi spoke on the pivotal role of youth in shaping the country.

Club president R Lokanatha Guptha said the goal of Pegasus is to empower youth by giving them a platform to exhibit and refine their leadership skills and knowledge. District Interact representative Rethanya and her predecessor Mahalakshmi captivated the audience with their oratorical skills that inspired the young participants from different schools across RID 3201. Speaking at the valedictory session, DG N Sundaravadivelu urged the Rotarians to provide opportunity for youngsters to showcase their diverse talent. Around 10 literary and cultural performances were staged by Interactors at the day-long event.
