A conference with everything

15 members and partners joined together for a fun and informative experience at last weekends Joint District Conference in Rotorua.

For some this started with organising or participating in a Rotary Leadership Institute Part 1 for 17 from both districts 9920 and 9940.  Some others took to the outdoor cycling through the thermal wonderland , bush and forests.

Then there was the conference itself with over 600 participants and a varied programme of information and motivational speakers but most valued was the chance to meet and socialise with others from across the districts.  The Saturday night saw us all get dressed up for a "Starry Starry Night" that commenced with drinks put on by President Miles and concluded with most dancing to the rip-roaring music of the Rotorua Rotary Sunshine Rockers (a band made up of Rotorua Rotarians).

Everyone, especially those for whom this was their first Rotary conference had a fantastic time and all are looking forward to next year's district conference at Chateau Tongariro
