International Conventions...
Each May or June, Rotary International holds a worldwide convention “to stimulate, inspire and inform all Rotarians at an international level.” The convention, which may not be held in the same country for more than two consecutive years, is the annual meeting to conduct the business of the association. The planning process usually begins about four or five years in advance.
RI conventions are scheduled for Singapore in 1999; Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 2000; and San Antonio, Texas, U.S.A., in 2001. The RI board determines a general location and invites cities to make proposals. The conventions are truly international events that 20,000 to 35,000 Rotarians and guests attend. All members should plan to participate in a Rotary International convention to discover to discover the real internationally of Rotary. It is an experience you’ll never forget.
