The District Conference was held in Yamba recently. Robert Blanchard attended his second Rotary Conference where there were sessions which had over 300 attendees bringing together many Rotarians to learn more about the Rotarian experience. Some wonderful keynote speakers were listened to. Curtis McGraw, a double amputee having fought in Afghanistan, spoke about his experience of becoming a double amputee whilst trying to find land mines in Afghanistan. The main thing he learned from this experience was never to say "what if" only to focus on "what's next" moving forward. He went on to become a Gold medalist at the Japanese Olympics. He was exceptionally motivating. Curtis was one of many wonderful speakers.
