District Conference

The District Conference was an informative and enjoyable event. The guest speakers included some of the leaders in research in the mental health field as well speakers and plenarary's in Rotary's Five avenues of service.
Sunday's Youth and New Generations was particularly inspiring. The Team's presentation on Sunday was well received and there were many questions and comments following to the team.
One of the key speakers was Penny LeGate who spoke on Rotary's Last Mile in the eradication of Polio. Her speech was inspiring and Penny is a lovely and engaging lady who we had the pleasure to spend a few nights with during our week in the Sydney area.
On Sunday afternoon we attended a Citzenship Ceremony where three Canadians became Australian Citizens including Dr. Alexandra Mariniuk who came to Australia as an Ambassadorial Scholar and never left.
