DISTRICT CONFERENCE

From District Governor Judy Witt: our District Conference on April 24-26 will be held near VeVay at Belterra Resort and Spa. This is the first time we will join Ohio District 6670 which includes Dayton and Cincinnati. Why you should attend this Friday/Saturday meeting:1) The international flavor of the conference will be strong. Rotary Youth Exchange Students will represent 15 countries. 2) Rotarians from our district will share their National Immunization Days (NID) experiences. 3) Welcome Rotary International President’s Representative Mr. Ashok Mahajan, Rotary International Director from India and his wife. We are so excited to have an  RI Director joining us. 4) Rotary speakers from Maine to Michigan will present. 5) Experience the Family of Rotary with past RI Director Robert Stuart. 6) Many opportunities to get new club project and fund raising ideas from the club displays.7) To hear GSE teams from Brazil, Sweden and Singapore and to give our District 6580 team a warm bon voyage to Brazil. 8) Participate in the District Annual meeting. 9) To make certain your club is represented when awards are presented.10) Socializing and great Rotary fun sprinkled through out the two days. And, most important 11) You are being asked to attend and YOU WILL VERY MUCH BE MISSED! The Ohio District has more clubs but their district conference attendance is generally about the same size as our attendance. That makes me even more proud of this district. I hope you will assure that we continue to be well represented by getting your registration completed now. Hurry and complete your form and send to Registrar Anita Ozete, 4245 Pembroke Dr., Evansville, IN 47711 by March 31st to receive the early registration discount rate. Phone: 812-473-1587, Email: aloz@wowway.com The district conference will be better because you participated.
