Rotary International Convention
Save the Date! The 2019 Rotary International Convention will take place June 1-5, 2019, in Hamburg, Germany. This is sure to be an excellent opportunity to enjoy fellowship and learn more about Rotary.
Our incoming District Governor, Kate Sims, will be attending a planning convention in San Diego very shortly. Kate wishes to obtain a rough count of those who are interested in attending the 2019 Rotary International Convention to discuss with other Governors.
If you are potentially interested, please reply to jennifergruszka45@gmail.com. Spouses are certainly welcome. Costs are not determined at this time, but Rotarians are responsible for flights, accommodations and Convention fees.
Historically, 20-80 members of District 7890 have attended the International Conventions. You can learn more about past and future Conventions here.
