We were thrilled to welcome Ramish Ferris , Rotarian from Whitehorse who shared his story and journey as a survivor of polio and of the challenges polio has presented growing up...
Interactors painted PURPLE PINKIEs to all those in attendance and raised more money for polio.
THANK YOU Ramish! (do check out Ramish on facebook)
The Ramada Inn and Conference facility in Edmonton was the site for current and future leaders from B5370 who met over the weekend. Wow - what a turn out!
In addition to Assistant Governors, Presidents for 2011-2012, secretaries and club leaders, we were thrilled to have the New Generations - Interact, Rotaract Leaders join us.
Thanks to District Trainer, Wendy McDonald and Mike Hanna and Steven Lindop who worked with the New Generations leadership teams, along with so many District leaders, we had a great weekend of learning. A range of topics were discussed all with a view of making Rotary Bigger! Better! Bolder!
Friday afternoon was dedicated to Assistant Governor's roles.
Friday late afternoon, we welcomed the Interact and Rotaract leaders who met at Amiskwaciy Academy. Many stayed overnight at Kirk United Church.
Friday evening it was my pleasure to welcome and introduce District Governor Elect, Harry Buddle and Judy along with Mayor Jeff Mulligan from Lloydminster. Jeff was an outstanding keynote who inspired those who were in attendance to dream big and make those dreams real.
The Chinese Proverb shared during the introduction of the Buddles is as follows:
"If there is light in the soul,
There will be beauty in the person,
If there is beauty in the person,
There will be harmony in the house,
If there is harmony in the house,
There will be order in the nation,
If there is order in the nation,
There will be peace in the world."
