Our Area
DISTRICT 23
For ease of Management Zonta International is divided into Districts and we are in District 23.
At the 50th International Convention in Dallas in 1990, our Club began a new life as a member of a new District - District 23, which comprises the Northern Territory, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia.
It was formerly District XVI with New Zealand. It was in the mid 1960's that DOROTHY THOMPSON of Toronto in Canada, organised twelve clubs in what became District XVI. We were fortunate to welcome Dorothy to our Charter Dinner in April 1979, and maintained regular correspondence with her, until her death in September 1998, at the age of 103.
Currently, there are 36 Clubs in our District; we keep in touch through our Annual District Directory and our Quarterly District Governor's Newsletter.
A District Conference is held every two years (alternating with the International Conventions), to determine policy and elect officers for the next Biennium.
AREA 4
We belong to Area 4, which has nine clubs spread over a wide geographical area: Albury-Wodonga, Ballarat, Bendigo, Central Goldfields (Maryborough), Geelong, Kyneton, Melton, Mitchell and Wangaratta.
We are represented on the District Board by our Area Director who keeps in touch through her Newsletter, and provides training in Zonta knowledge and Club management through the Area Workshop.
Area Meetings, Seminars or Weekend Training Days for Club Officers are convened at the discretion of the Area Director to promote Zonta knowledge and fellowship.
