What are the magic ingredients to hosting an environmentally sustainable conference? Innovation, determination, and a solid sustainability plan are key to reducing our environmental impact.
Our conference program and speaker notes will be digital, reducing our carbon footprint. Our Rotary Conference web site is an excellent example.
Soon, our 2024/2025 District Governor Drew Antrobus will be coming to invite you personally to Celebrate the Magic of Rotary and Beyond next April at our District Conference in Richmond, B.C. Our invitation is a postcard which may look and feel like it is made of regular cardstock, but it is actually made of leftover, previously unharvestable hay!
This hay is typically burned in the field after harvest time, causing air pollution in grain growing areas.
We are happy to have found this ideal solution for continuing District 5040's time honoured District Conference “invitation by postcard” tradition while embracing Rotary's important commitment to environmental sustainability
Your 2025 Conference Committee is hard at work and doing our best to make the 2025 edition an exciting and great experience for everyone. Our vision is to structure the conference as follows:.png)
