Mohanraj, Secretary 14 FELLOWSHIPS Rotary Fellowships consist of members who share a common interest in recreational activities, sports, hobbies, or professions. These groups help expand skills, foster vocational development, and enhance the Rotary experience by exploring interests while developing connections around the world. Our Downtowners are a part of three different fellowships. IFCR unarguably the most popular fellowship in the cricket obssessed city enjoys a patronage of 17 Rotarians of Rotary Club of Coimbatore Downtown. Rtn.A.P.Karthi is the sole representative of Rotary Means Business, another well known Fellowship. Rtn.A.P.Karthi is incidentally a member of 2 fellowships. Our President who still feels young at heart is a member of the new fellowship, Young Rotarians fellowship. We hope more Rotarians will be embracing the joy of Rotary in this year through Rotary Fellowships IFCR (International Fellowship of Cricket Loving Rotarians) Rtn.

FUNTASY – A DOWNTOWN PROJECT DIA, NAFISA, RIYA, DISHA, RAKUL – Do these names ring a bell? All these names would have brought a smile to the Downtowners. FUNTASY is a fantasy league competition conducted by Rotary Club of Coimbatore Downtown for our fellow Downtowners in the backdrop of a major sporting event. This event based on predicting the winners and performers helps to keep us alive, kicking and together. The predictions lead to heavy competition and light conversations. We started with DIA (Downtown IPL Analyst) based on IPL 2018. NAFISA (Namma FIFA Super Analyst) served us watching FIFA World Cup 2018 together. A last minute idea saw us conduct RIYA (RDL In Yeoman Analyst) for our own Rotary Downtown League. DISHA (Downtown‘s IPL Super Hope Analyst) helped us follow IPL 2019 together. Our fifth one RAKUL (Rotarian Analysing Kohli‘s Uitimate Leadership) is our Funtasy for World Cup Cricket 2019. Rtn.Arun Nagappan is the Chairman of FUNTASY. Rtn.Pon.Rathnavel was the curator for all the 5 Funtasy Leagues. Rtn.Sumit Kumar Prasad enjoys unstinted success in the FUNTASY leagues. He was the winner of DIA, NAFISA and DISHA. Rtn.Godwin and Rtn.Vignesh shared the honours for RIYA. RAKUL will throw a winner eventually on June 14. Our next FUNTASY will be based on TNPL 2019. Rtn.Srinivasan Joshi, District Coordinator for Public Image has always made a clarion call for clubs, regions and districts to have historians to document the good work done by Rotary. Rtn.Joshi wanted clubs to preserve their newsletters, news clippings, GOV reports, invitations etc and believes that they may all garner immense historic value in the future. Rtn.Joshi also emphasised that this is the right time for Rotary to appoint regional historians for the 4 regions of our district – Coimbatore, Palghat-Thrissur, Muvattupuzha and Cochin. Our Charter Secretary, Rtn.V.Vinod Kumar has always insisted that we need to have a fool proof archiving system and that anyone who wants to know the achievements of yesteryears should have easy and proper access to the same. Thinking on these two lines, Rotary Club of Coimbatore Downtown has requested Rtn.V.Vinod Kumar to be the Historotarian of the club (the historian among Rotarians) and help to create a system for documenting the legacy of Rotary Club of Coimbatore Downtown. ROTARY WISDOM HISTOROTARIAN – HOWS THE JOSH(I)? I would always remember three learnings in Rotary. First was from PDG Rtn.Rajamani when I was a Rotaract President ―A good President should knows the bylaws. The best President should knows how to not use it‖. Second from a good friend and Rotary Peace Scholar Rukmini Iyer ―The biggest contribution of Rotary to humanity is enabling a tryst with leadership for nearly 35000 people every year. Third was from Rtn.Saba Singaram ―In Rotary, fellowship happens through many means from whiskey to cricket. But the best fellowship always happens over a service project. - Rtn. Pon.Rathnavel, President 15
