由國際扶輪理事會所定義之國際扶輪細則第15.090要求的總監公式訪問就是：

在整年度內到各扶輪社舉行扶輪社公式訪問會議或多社公式訪問會議，時間應選在能使社員出席率達到最高為準，其目的在：

The governor’s official visit, as required by the RI bylaws section 15.090, has been defined by the RI Board as

an official visit individually or in multiclub meetings conducted throughout the year to take place at a time that maximizes the governor’s presence for the purpose of

a.   著重於重視重大的扶輪問題

b.   提供較弱且面臨困難之扶輪社特別關注

c.    激勵扶輪社員參加服務活動

d.   親自表彰地區內有卓越貢獻的扶輪社員

a) Focusing attention on important Rotary issues

b) Providing special attention to weak or struggling clubs

c) Motivating Rotarians to participate in service activities

d) Recognizing in person the outstanding contributions of Rotarians in the district

公式訪問應在總監蒞臨時可以形成最大影響力的時機來舉行，其中包括授證晚會(charter night)、入社儀式、新社員訓練計劃、表彰或頒獎典禮、特別的計劃、扶輪基金會的活動、或是埠際會議。

Such visits should take place at a time that maximizes the impact of the governor’s presence, including charter nights, induction ceremonies, new member orientation programs, citation or award presentations, special programs, Foundation events, or intercity meetings.

於年度當中所有總監一定要透過公式訪問的一些形式來親自直接與扶輪社接觸。在整年當中，您有很大的彈性來利用重要活動的機會，為每個扶輪社去規劃您訪問的行程。地區總監在年度當中可以隨時訪問扶輪社。您也可以在訪問個別扶輪社的同時，安排舉行多社或埠際會議，並請所有參與的扶輪社出席會議，而不僅只是主辦社而已。

All governors must have direct personal contact with each club through some form of official visit during the year. You have a great deal of flexibility in planning your visits, along with the opportunity to capitalize on significant events throughout the year for each club. The district governor can visit clubs any time during the year. While you can continue to visit clubs individually, you may also conduct multiclub or intercity meetings, with attendance from all participating clubs, not just the host clubs.

助理總監會定期的與扶輪社領導人見面討論社務以及有用的資源。每次拜訪扶輪社時，助理總監必須填寫或更新扶輪社訪問備忘錄的表格。

Assistant governors will meet regularly with club leaders to discuss the business of the club and the resources available. Whenever visiting a club, the assistant governor is to complete or update a Memo of Club Visit form.

n 您地區內有那些活動是適合於以跨社會議形式舉辦呢？

n Which activities in your district are conducive to multiclub meetings?

n 您要如何將這個觀念導入地區內的所有扶輪社呢？

n How can you introduce this concept to clubs in your district?

扶輪社訪問備忘錄是必須由助理總監負責填寫，請參閱本手冊第十二章的表格.

The Memo of Club Visit, to be completed by the assistant governor, can be found in chapter 12 of this manual.

公式訪問的準備工作

Preparation for an Official Visit

在您的公式訪問之前，請與定期至其所負責的扶輪社拜訪、商議並給予建議的助理總監們密切合作，以得知每個扶輪社的優缺點以及需求。助理總監的主要責任之一就是協助扶輪社領導人擬定下一年度的目標及計劃。您與助理總監都必須充分了解每個扶輪社的背景、領導人、主要的服務計劃、社員出席的模式、所面臨的挑戰、以及其優點長處。

Before your official visit, you will be working closely with your assistant governors who have been visiting, conferring with, and advising their assigned clubs on a regular basis in order to inform you on the strengths, weaknesses, and needs of each club. One of the primary responsibilities of the assistant governors is to help club leaders develop goals and plans for the coming year. It is essential that both you and the assistant governor know each club’s background, leaders, key service projects, membership attendance patterns, challenges, and strengths.

維持扶輪社的紀錄是總監和助理總監的責任。請由閱讀前地區總監移交給您的紀錄開始，例如以前的扶輪社訪問備忘錄、地區概況、或是以前的有效能扶輪社規劃指南。您可以每個扶輪社建立一個檔案或是一個電子目錄，然後將您與扶輪社聯絡的紀錄或是收到的社刊繼續歸檔。

Maintaining club records is the responsibility of both the governor and the assistant governor. Begin by reviewing records you receive from the district governor preceding you, such as past Memo of Club Visit forms, the district profile, or past Planning Guide for Effective Rotary Clubs forms. You may set up either a file or an electronic directory on each club, adding information as you have contact with the club or receive club bulletins.

您的助理總監拜訪扶輪社的時候(國際扶輪理事會建議至少每季一次)也會新增添一些訊息並與您分享。有了這些資料之後，在扶輪社提出特別需求時，您與您的助理總監就可以計劃如何去增強該社的實力。

As your assistant governors visit the clubs (the RI Board recommends they do so at least quarterly), they will also add information and share it with you. With this information, you and your assistant governors can plan ways to build on the clubs’ strengths while addressing their special needs.

n 在計劃您的公式訪問時，您必須考慮哪些地區傳統呢？

n Which traditions in your district should be considered as you plan your official visits?

安排您的行程

Planning Your Schedule

在助理總監的協助之下，儘早開始尋找地區內的特殊活動，看是否為安排公式訪問的適當時機。然後以會議的日期、扶輪社的所在地、或一個特別活動為基礎，來將地區內的扶輪社分區，以便安排連續幾天，訪問同一分區內鄰近的扶輪社或舉辦一次埠際會議。您也可以選擇將安排公式訪問的責任委託給負責特定地理區域的扶輪社的助理總監。由於他們對當地媒體的熟悉，如同從一個扶輪社到另一個扶輪社該花多少時間一樣，對協調您的行程來說是項資產。一旦您已經決定好訪問的日期，應將行程表寄給所要訪問的社長們去確認日期。請在您的第一份總監月報、地區名錄、或地區的網頁上公佈您的行程表，並寄影本給地區內的所有扶輪社社長與秘書。

With the help of your assistant governors, you will want to begin identifying as early as possible special events in the district that would be appropriate for the occasion of an official visit. Based on the meeting day, the location of the club, or a special event, attempt to group the clubs so that you are visiting neighboring clubs or conducting an intercity meeting on consecutive days. You may choose to delegate the responsibility of scheduling the official visits in assigned geographic areas to your assistant governors who serve those areas. Their familiarity with local media, as well as the time it takes to travel from one club to another, can be an asset in coordinating your schedule. Once you have determined the dates for your visits, have an itinerary sent to the club presidents to confirm the dates. Publish your itinerary in your first monthly letter, district directory, or on the district’s Web site, and send copies to club presidents and secretaries in the district.

與助理總監一起找出需要您或您的地區領導團隊成員需儘快加以留意的扶輪社。這個名單應包括新成立的扶輪社、社員人數過低的扶輪社、以及未達到社務運作最低標準的扶輪社。影印需要特別注意的扶輪社工作表(請參考本章的附錄一)並和助理總監一起填寫，每個扶輪社要分別各填寫一張單獨的表格。

Work with your assistant governors to identify clubs that will require early attention, either by you or a member of your district leadership team. This list should include new clubs, clubs with low membership, and clubs that are not meeting minimum standards. Make copies of the Working with Clubs that Need Special Attention worksheet (see appendix 1 of this chapter). Work with your assistant governor to complete a separate worksheet for each club.

由於行政上的需要，助理總監在整年度內必須定期拜訪扶輪社。 公式訪問則是要由地區總監去鼓舞和表彰扶輪社員們。

Club visits are made by assistant governors regularly throughout the year for administrative purposes. Official visits are made by the district governor to motivate and recognize club Rotarians.

在公式訪問期間

During the Official Visit

除了公式訪問時的一些必要任務之外，您與助理總監至少需挪出一個小時來和扶輪社社長、秘書、及社長當選人見面。請利用這個時間來：

In addition to your other responsibilities at the official visit, you and the assistant governor will need at least an hour to meet with the club president, secretary, and president-elect. Use this time to

• 檢視扶輪社的填補及未填補的職業分類名冊。詢問該扶輪社近期內是否有實施社區內的職業分類調查，以確認職業分類名冊中確實代表著社區內所有的職業與專業。

• Examine the club’s roster of filled and unfilled classifications. Inquire if the club has recently conducted a community survey of classifications to make sure the classifications list represents the community’s businesses and professions.

• 詢問扶輪社的施行細則是否已經更新隨時可用。如果還沒，建議他們直接採用最新〝建議扶輪社細則〞。

• Inquire if an up-to-date copy of the club’s bylaws is readily available. If not, suggest that the current Recommended Rotary Club Bylaws be adopted.

• 向扶輪社社長及秘書查明該扶輪社是否有按時繳交社員會費給國際扶輪社，訂閱應該閱讀的出版品，及做到所有應盡的義務。若尚有金額未繳清，驅策該扶輪社儘快繳清尚欠國際扶輪的會費。並說明忽略繳交會費的後果。

• Ascertain from the club president and secretary if the club is up-to-date in its RI payments of per capita dues, subscriptions, and other obligations. If not, urge the club to promptly pay all amounts due RI. Explain the consequences of neglecting to pay dues.

• 要對扶輪社秘書強調更新社員紀錄的重要性，請迅速利用國際扶輪網站或郵寄新社員、社員變動或終止報告表格，當有如此情形發生時來更新其紀錄。

• Emphasize to the club secretary the importance of updating membership records using RI’s Web site or sending new member, change, or termination report forms to the RI offices as they occur.

• 在檢查每個委員會的計劃時，您可以參照〝有效能扶輪社的規劃指南〞中所列出的相關建議項目。當您在檢閱該核對清單的同時，也可以建議社長直接提出您可能協助問題的地方或方法。您可以花點時間協助該扶輪社的：

•  As you review each committee’s plans, you may wish to check the suggestions under each related item in the Planning Guide for Effective Rotary Clubs. As you review the checklist together, suggest that the president indicate problem areas or ways you can be helpful. You can help the club by spending some time on

-  扶輪社預算及財務

-  扶輪社委員會計劃

-  每週社刊的功能

-  對每週例會節目的建議

-  社員發展及防止流失

-  扶輪訊息

-  扶輪社行政會議的計劃

-  參加社長當選人訓練會議、地區講習會、地區扶輪基金研習會、地區社員發展研習會、地區領導研習會及地區年會的重要性

-  參與及支持扶輪基金會的活動

-  扶輪社的永久紀錄

-  利用〝程序手冊〞及/或〝扶輪政策彙編〞來解決扶輪社行政管理的問題

–   The club’s budget and finances

–   The club committee plan

–   The function of the weekly bulletin

–   Suggestions regarding weekly meeting programs

–   Membership development and retention

–   Rotary information

–   Plans for club assemblies

–   The importance of attendance at the presidents-elect training seminar, district assembly, district Rotary Foundation seminar, district membership seminar, district leadership seminar, and district conference

–   Participation in and support of Rotary Foundation activities

–   The club’s permanent records

–   Using the Manual of Procedure and/or Rotary Code of Policies to solve club administration problems

• 考慮儘量多花點時間來提供更多的協助給流失社員或社員增加量過低的扶輪社.

• Consider spending an extra hour or so to provide as much help as possible for clubs that have lost members or have had a relatively small increase

請牢記，您將從國際扶輪分配到的差旅費用是假設您會以連續地訪問鄰近的所有扶輪社而訂定的額度。請儘快決定您的訪問日期並與扶輪社社長們確認是否可行。

Remember, your estimated allocation from RI for travel expenses is structured under the assumption that you will visit neighboring clubs consecutively. As soon as possible, determine the dates you will be making visits. Confirm these dates with the club presidents.

為公式訪問，請研擬一份按照國際扶輪主題及該年度您的目標所訂製的扶輪社檢閱核對清單。

For official visits, develop a club review checklist tailored to the RI theme and your goals for the year.

扶輪社社務行政會議

The Club Assembly

助理總監需要出席與您的公式訪問相關的扶輪社社務行政會議。扶輪社社務行政會議是扶輪社的職員和委員會委員與您的代表討論他們的計劃及成果，還有商討他們所關切事務的機會。這個扶輪社社務行政會議與整年度內其他的扶輪社社務行政會議有兩個主要的不同點：

The assistant governor attends the club assembly associated with your official visit. This club assembly is an opportunity for club officers and committee members to discuss their plans and accomplishments and to confer with your representative about their concerns. There are two major differences between this club assembly and others conducted throughout the year:

1.    主要目的是討論扶輪社的該年度計劃以及總監訪問有效率的時機。

2.    助理總監的以一位顧問的立場出席會議。

1. The principal purpose is to discuss the status of club plans for the year, and the timing — and the effect of the timing — of the governor’s visit.

2. The assistant governor is there as a counselor.

公式訪問之後

After the Official Visit

您及或您的助理總監應在公式訪問之後立刻致函扶輪社社長以：

You and/or your assistant governor should write to the club president immediately after your visit to

• 對他們熱情招待表達感謝之意，還有對您觀察到該扶輪社社長或扶輪社的特質加以讚許

• 對某些委員會的計劃與成就提出意見

• 提醒社長在您訪問期間討論到的應特別注意事項

• 表達您願意持續協助的意願

• 提醒社長定期舉行扶輪社社務行政會議，並利用〝有效能扶輪社的規劃指南〞做為一種指導

• 要求提供書面的訪問會議記錄給您及地區的國際扶輪辦事處，以利追蹤進度

• Express appreciation for courtesies extended to you and to commend the club president or the club on some characteristic you observed

• Comment on certain committee plans and accomplishments

• Remind the president of matters discussed during your visit that need special attention

• Express your continued interest and desire to be of further service

• Remind the president to hold regular club assemblies, using the Planning Guide for Effective Rotary Clubs as a guide

• Provide you and the district’s RI office with written documentation for follow-up

經常檢視地區內扶輪社的現況可以讓您掌握有哪些扶輪社需要持續嚴密的注意。您可以透過總監月報，鼓勵的信函，以及給予扶輪社職員挑戰性的工作等方法來協助這些扶輪社。您也可以調整您的預定行程，再次非正式的與這些社長見面。請記得要保持一種隨時都在更新需要在地區講習會議強調的問題資料檔以便與總監當選人來分享。

A frequent review of the status of the clubs in the district will enable you to ascertain which ones need continuing and detailed attention. Such clubs can be helped through your monthly letter as well as letters of inspiration and challenge to the officers. You may be able to arrange your itinerary so that you can visit informally with the president again. Remember to keep a running account of issues that should be emphasized at the district assembly to share with the governor-elect.

完成扶輪社訪問報告書

Completing the Memo of Club Visit

扶輪社訪問報告書是每次您或助理總監訪問過一個扶輪社以後就必須填寫的報告。這份文件是您、助理總監、或是您未來的接班人與該扶輪社接觸時的參考文件。提醒助理總監報告書的內容必須能夠正確的反映出實際的運作情況、努力的成果、弱點及獨特的挑戰，還有提出需要特別協助之處。扶輪社訪問報告書中所提到的扶輪社資訊也是您會從您所屬的國際扶輪辦事處收到地區簡介的基本資訊。在填寫報告書時請務必考慮到下列幾點：

The Memo of Club Visit is a report on each club visit conducted by you or an assistant governor. This document serves as a reference for you, assistant governors, or your successors in future contacts with the club. Advise your assistant governors to prepare the memo to accurately reflect the practices, accomplishments, weaknesses, and unique challenges of the club, as well as specific suggestions for help. Club information on the Memo of Club Visit form also serves as the basis for the district profile that you will receive from your RI office. The following points should be considered when preparing these memos:

• 報告必須是清晰易讀；手寫報告書的筆跡經常不易於辨認。您自己的檔案也必須留一份影本。請注意：每個扶輪地區都必須負責留存自己的歷史紀錄。

• 請與總監當選人分享這份報告書。如此一來，您的繼任者在上任以前就可以得到每個扶輪社的詳細資料。

• Make your memos legible; handwritten memos sometimes are difficult to read. Keep a copy of the memo in your files. Note: Each Rotary district is responsible for maintaining its own historical records.

• Share the memo with the governor-elect. In this way, your successor will have more information on each club before taking office.

最後所要提交備忘錄的版本必須將多次拜訪扶輪社所得的觀察結果綜合反映出來。所有的扶輪社訪問備忘錄影本集中歸檔管理，作為地區紀錄。並將地區內所有扶輪社的正本一起在6月1日以前郵寄至您的國際扶輪辦事處。

The final submitted version of the memo should reflect observations based on cumulative visits to the club. Maintain a file of copies of all Memo of Club Visit forms for district records. Mail the originals for all clubs in the district to your RI office by 1 June.

再度造訪需特別注意的扶輪社

Additional Visits to Clubs Needing Special Attention

鼓勵助理總監再度拜訪那些需要特別注意的扶輪社。作為您與扶輪社領導人之間的溝通管道，助理總監可以協助指導這些扶輪社並向您報告進度。如果這些扶輪社要求您直接的支持與指導的話，考慮利用公式訪問的機會，將助理總監已投入的心血發揮更大的效用，也請利用這個機會來激發和鼓勵扶輪社的社員。

Encourage assistant governors to make additional visits to clubs needing special attention. As your liaison with club leadership, the assistant governor can provide guidance to these clubs and report their progress to you. If these clubs require support and guidance from you directly, consider using your official visit as an opportunity to build on the work of your assistant governors, using this time to inspire and motivate the members of the club.

請提醒助理總監，扶輪社訪問備忘錄需在5月15日以前交給總監。

Remind assistant governors that the Memo of Club Visit forms are due to the governor by 15 May.
