In Focus

Family Reunion
It's Family Month on the Rotary calendar. From Sweden to Sri Lanka, from Peru to the Philippines, one way we stay connected is by meeting up at RI conventions. Some of those who converged on Salt Lake City in June posed for portraits that illustrate the beautiful mix of cultures, languages, and interests within Rotary.

The families in the photo essay include Rotarians and their husbands, wives, and children. But the family of Rotary is much more, of course. That’s why you’ll also find nieces and nephews, aunts and uncles, cousins and friends, Rotaractors and Interactors, students in Rotary Youth Exchange and Rotary Youth Leadership Awards.
