Coverage of
the 2007 RI Convention Site change
for the 2009 RI Convention |
Rotary International News
20 June 2007
Salt Lake City — The Rotary International Board of Directors has changed
the tentative site of the 2009 RI Convention from Seoul to Birmingham,
England. The event was provisionally scheduled in Seoul for 21-24 June
2009.
The change was necessary because some segments of the planning for the
convention were behind schedule. These delays and other associated issues
hindered the ability of local Rotary clubs to organize and host such a
large-scale, international meeting.
Rotary International's annual convention is a worldwide gathering of
Rotary members who participate in a broad agenda of plenary sessions and
workshops focused on how Rotary clubs help to make the world a better
place through volunteer service.
The decision was taken at the conclusion of the 2007 Rotary convention in
Salt Lake City, USA, attended by nearly 17,000 Rotary members.
