District Foundation Dinner and District Conference ahead
I hope everyone had a great holiday season and are enjoying the opportunities we have in Rotary to serve our communities and the world in so many rewarding ways.

Plans for our District Conference April 28 to 30 are moving rapidly: check out the theme and draft program and register. There’s something for everyone, an interesting and varied program, great speakers, fun and fellowship all in a great location.  The $400 registration cost is being extended for another month, to January 31, before it rises to $450.  And there’s a special rate for Rotaractors and first-year Rotarians -- $99, not including a Gala ticket.  There are still hotel rooms in the block at our special negotiated rate.
