We hear it over and over from Rotarians: Everyone needs to experience the Rotary International Convention at least once.“The Rotary Convention is life changing” is a line we hear most after Rotarians have attended a convention. Convention newbies, from Rotaractors to new club leaders, will reap the reward that results from thousands of members coming together: the feeling that you belong to something bigger than yourself.
That feeling turns first-timers into convention regulars; you will learn how to make measurable improvements for people in your community and communities around the world. Members say that highlights making spontaneous connections in the House of Friendship and feeling Rotary’s worldwide influence.
Members kindle their fire for service listening to leading experts at general sessions. Speakers are first class and will leave you inspired.
Evenings can be spent attending events that the host club has arranged. Many are typical of Calgary hospitality with showmanship including Indigenous hoop dancing, toe-tapping music, bronc riding, horseback relay races, country music… all a great way to sample Calgary. Many Rotarians when visiting conventions also take the opportunity to add a side trip. Take part in learning about a great part of Canada.
