Save the Date: June 20-26 2020 Rotary Virtual Convention:This summer, the Rotary Convention was scheduled for Honolulu. For obvious reasons, that has changed. Instead, Rotary will hold a Virtual Convention themed Now More than Ever, Rotary Connects the World. The majority of our club’s Rotarians have not had an opportunity to attend a convention. Stay tuned for more details as this will be a good opportunity to attend a Rotary Convention without incurring airfare and lodging expenses.
