Keeping with this years theme of Rotary Making a Difference, this year we will be celebrating Rotary's making a difference throughout the world. In particular, that done by our 71 clubs throughout District 5790 both in our communities and beyond our borders.

We be highlighting our clubs accomplishments in 2017-2018, we are having a dinner on Friday that highlights 5 countries (including the exchange students that we have from those countries).
Again this year we will be recognizing first responders and those that serve in our armed forces.

On Sunday DGE Gerald to provide the attendees an overview for his vision and goals for District 5790 in 2018-2019.
 
To encourage attendance from throughout all corners of the district, we will keep the cost to an absolute minimum. we are in seeking event Sponsors.  Several sponsorship's totaling $20,000 to help us meet our goal of minimal member registration cost. We are actively seeking sponsors at various sponsor levels to sponsor various events during the conference. The committee has not established pricing for the sponsor opportunities but each will include special recognition prior to and during the District Conference. The major event sponsors will be recognized on our website and in publicity used to promote the event. If you own or represent an organization that would be interested in being a sponsor, please contact Chris McLucas at districtgovernor1718@yahoo.com
