If any of you have interest in attending this, please let Carrie Leising know and she will send you the email with the links. It is not an all day affair and the schedule is below for your reference. I hope some of you take this opportunity to participate! Have you ever wanted to attend a Rotary International Convention? Now you have the opportunity to attend the International Convention form the comfort of your home. Many of our Rotarians do not have the resources or time to travel to an International Convention but now you can participate in the first online Convention that Rotary has ever hosted. Now More Than Ever, Rotary Connects the World: The 2020 Rotary Virtual Convention will join you with Rotary participants around the world during a time of unprecedented challenges. Together, we’ll still experience the spirit of Rotary, be inspired by innovation, celebrate our resilience, and explore how clubs are addressing COVID-19. Experience Rotary in action during our Flag Ceremony, witness the power of connection during our general sessions, learn new ways to engage with Rotary during our breakout sessions, find inspiration from our global speakers, and much more. We have never needed Rotary — and we have never needed each other — more than we do now. We hope to see you online, because Now More Than Ever, Rotary Connects the World.
