Last Saturday my family and I attended the Rotary Multi District Conference at the Hyatt in Essendon.The event was well attended and a highlight being the telecast of the virtual conference. Inspirational speakers and performances brought out many emotions from the audience, with the strong message ‘actions have an impact’, echoing throughout the inspired crowd.
After its conclusion at 12.30pm, a beautiful lunch was served in the grounds of the Hyatt, where everyone enjoyed soaking up the glorious weather for the 1st day of May 2021.
A Bollywood dancing performance was organised, which engaged the audience with added laughter from all involved, while some chose to circulate around the many set-up stalls.
The day concluded with the presentations of well-earned awards for the Rotary clubs within the clusters.
Thank-you to those members
