Welcome to the 2015 Rotary International District 5360 Conference in Medicine Hat May 8,9,10. Our goal is to inspire you to change the world. Our measure of success is how many Rotarians leave DisCon even more determined to serve community locally and globally.
Rotary International Convention Brazil - June 2015
Prepare yourself to be entertained and motivated by the lineup of activities and speakers. Rotarians from around the world are converging on Sao Paulo to exchange ideas and synergize on how to make a difference in the world. Connect with other Rotarians with your shared passion for taking action in communities at home and abroad.
This year the Rotary Club of Calgary West has surged forward in its membership and programs. A surge isn’t usually a short term result that takes place in a single year, but cumulative over a number of years.
Please see the letter below from Martha McManus, a Peace Fellow from District 5360, regarding Rotary’s Peace Fellowship. If you know of any people working in a peace-related field who might be interested in applying for a Peace Fellowship, please share this letter with them. The application deadline for study in 2016-17 is May 31, 2015.
Do you have friends, family or past Rotarians who feel Rotary doesn’t fit into their lives? These people want to make a difference in the world, but may feel that children, time constraints, business commitments, finances or something else interferes with them being a part of this incredible organization. We’ve created this event especially for those folks in your life, who want to change the world or maybe just make new friends.

On November 10th, 2014, the day before attending the all-clubs Remembrance Day Rotary luncheon in Calgary, I attended a Rotary Club meeting in Hong Kong. Like most of the dozens of Rotary Clubs I have attended, it was an interesting and enjoyable experience. A request shortly after from Club President Ron Esch, to help provide content when an guest speaker had to cancel at the last minute, prompted me to draft notes about the joy of visiting other Rotary clubs in your travels.
