To ALL Active Rotarians in District 7070:
IMPORTANT: the next early-bird deadline for discounted registration to the Rotary International Convention in Toronto next June is December 15th. Registration goes up USD$100 after that date. As cancellation fee is only $50 - even if you're worried you might be travelling and out of the country then - it's a better deal to register now! :-) At present, we have about half the registrants expected from our district. Please don't wait until next May. Register here:
Have you registered to volunteer? You don't need to decide in what area or what days yet - but the Host Organising Committee DO need you to sign up online. They're working extremely hard planning things, so I know it would relieve their stress greatly if they had a few hundred more people sign up now. Remember, volunteers are needed both INSIDE the convention (registered delegates) and also OUTSIDE -- so spouses, siblings, friends, colleagues, Rotaractors and Rotarians-to-be are most welcome as well! Sign up here by entering your info in just a few clicks:
Still thinking about helping host a dinner for Monday, June 25th - Host Hospitality night? It's a highlight event for many going to conventions, and you'll meet a truly international group of guests. We should have 5,000 spots available, so please register your event - you don't need to have full details finalised. (I'll be sending a separate email to Club Presidents re potential joint events for those clubs outside of the city.) Sign up with even fewer clicks here, so they know you're hosting a dinner:
Lastly, exciting news: HOC event tickets are now on sale. People from around the world are already starting to purchase - and of course everyone here is welcome as well! More info here:
The HOC is getting updated on a regular basis, and includes info on all aspects of the convention, and a link to RI as well. So bookmark this one-stop resource...
