The Zone Chairperson (ZC) of A1 is required to make an official visitation to your club. This is usually scheduled preceding the District Governor's official visit (unless schedule is not allowed). You should receive the date of this visitation either through direct contact, through the Zone Chairperson's newsletter or both.

The ZC will be expected to provide the program on the occasion of his visit. DO NOT ARRANGE ANOTHER PROGRAM without first contacting the Zone Chairperson to be sure there would be sufficient time available and that another program will not dilute the message of the ZC.

The ZC will bring to your Club news of other clubs' activities in the Zone, goals of the District Governor, programs of the Zone and express caution to your members to observe proper protocol and courtesies to the District Governor during his official visit.

The ZC will be introduced by the Club President, unless he chooses to delegate this duty to another Lion. It is not necessary for the body to rise when the ZC is introduced nor at the conclusion of his address.
