The House of Friendship, itself, was well worth the entire price of admission! I met, and had lengthy, individual discussions with Rotarians from around the world about their specific projects. It was so invigorating to meet and brainstorm with such a concentration of good people gathered together to do service. Thank you, Rotary!
