Rotary International Conference Bangkok.
Who is joining us in Bangkok 6-9 May 2012? Traditionally 9940 has supported Convention very well and I am sure there will be a great number planning to attend Bangkok in May. It is a wonderful experience for new Rotarians and those attending will return to invigorate your Club! The fun of this convention is in the friendship both at the sessions but also in the evenings as we enjoy each other’s company and savour the city’s cuisine.
Do consider joining us. The convention costs are very reasonable this year (only US$160/person before 1 Dec 2011) and if you book your flights early it will be even more affordable. To register your interest please advise me by end of September so we can look at booking accommodation together at howard.tong@xtra.co.nz. The sooner the better.
