A NEW INITIATIVE IN RECORDING OUR HISTORY.

A NEW INITIATIVE IN RECORDING OUR HISTORY.

Let's admit it,we Indian Y's Men are utterly poor in recording our history. There may be so many reasons for that including the absence of permanent offices. However, we need to preserve our history. We generate much literature each year at all levels from the club to the Area. Unfortunately, we don't have a mechanism to preserve it. The coming generations would be searching in the dark if we do not preserve our history.

Y's Men International is committed to the preservation of records. There are limitations to documentation and preservation at the Area level. YMI has suggested that Areas should strive to preserve its records at the Area level . There is a new found enthusiasm today . The ISD Historian and our ASD Historian are committed to this project.

Ym.SS Tyagarajan (PRD & ASD) is taking a fresh and powerful initiative to motivate Clubs, Districts , Regions and the Area itself to preserve historical documents. The ISD & the ASD have brought out very relevant guidelines. Let us hope that the leadership at all levels will respond postively.
                                                                  
The communication from Ym.SS Tyagarajan is shown below for your urgent response and action. It would be most welcome to have historians at all levels who are committed to recording and forwarding the history to the RSD & ASD concerned. Ym.SS.Tyagarajan ASD is also ready to provide any clarification on the matter related to history.

Y's regards.

Philip Thengumcheril (ASD-PR)
