I had the pleasure to attend Rotary District 5370 1st Youth Summit last Saturday, April 23rd. Pradeep’s wife Rani joined me.
The event organizer was Tamara Larson, President of the Rotary Club of Edmonton Whyte Avenue and it was chaired by DG Tim Schilds.
Rotary International President Ravi Ravindran and Carin Jansen van Vuuren
There were over 200 attendees and we had the opportunity to hear RI President Ravi (Ravindran), International Director Julia Phelps, Director Elect Dean Rohrs speak.
Their main theme was to encourage participation – to work as a group, to discourage focussing on self & to illustrate the role that Rotary can play in their life.
RI President Ravi started his presentation by taking a selfie of himself with the group to the amusement of the crowd.
