2. Process of developing the strategic plan
In July 2021, the Rotary Club of Ramna, initiated its pilot three  year strategic planning process to identify the essential elements for club success and strategies for achieving that success.

Through the years, the plan was continually enhanced to adopt the annual undertaking and goals of Rotary International.
