Ruritan National Organization
The purpose of the district cabinet is to provide assistance to the clubs within
the district and organize new clubs. To facilitate providing these services, districts
establish subdivisions within the district called
zones
, with a
zone governor
in
charge of each zone. The zone consists of three to ten clubs at the discretion
of the district cabinet.
Basically, the delegates at the Ruritan National Convention and National
Board of Directors create the policies and programs of Ruritan National. The
district officers and national office staff are the administrators who implement
the policies and programs.
