Attendees talk about the Montréal convention
Rotary International News -- 21 June 2010
"It’s giving Rotarians an opportunity to come together, enjoy friendship and fellowship, and network. You learn a lot from sharing ideas with other clubs, and can find clubs to partner with on international projects."

"This is my fifth convention. The best part is meeting different people and seeing all the different booths from groups."
Quincie Selvarajah

"It’s extremely well organized. Registration went smoothly. And everybody talks to everybody. I would say it is 300 percent more friendly than we thought it would be."
Nigel and Beryl Woolmer

"I like learning about all the different service projects. I also would like to see more Canadian goods, like maple syrup."

"I enjoy the opening and closing ceremonies as well as the House of Friendship. You meet all kinds of people -- that is the great part of Rotary."

"Making friends, looking at the projects being carried out by Rotary clubs all over the word, and the commitment of every Rotarian to Service Above Self."
