Keith represented our club at the District Conference....Many Rotarians are missing out on a fabulous networking and social experience. The District Conference is a forum for compelling and emotional presenters. They challenge us to adopt service into our personal fabric. They show how each and every one of us can, and do cause change. Everyone has a burning passion, something that calls to them. There is much to do in our crazy mixed up world. For many on our planet earth, life is not like it is for us. People are suffering out there, while we are comfortable in front of our big screen TV's and texting on our cell phones. The stories shared at a gathering of Rotarians are life changing. Over and over again, we see that things happen when Rotarians get together. We can be doing more. "That tug on your sleeve is Rotary calling". At the District Conference we were witness to the Rotary family in action.....Rotarians, Rotaractors, Interactors and Clubs engaged in projects at home and around the world. Good stuff, you should have been there.
Congratulation to the Rotary Club of Ladner as Rotary Club of the Year and Tom Smith our District Membership Chair as the Rotarian of the year. |
