Lets have a cracking Good Time in 2009 – District Conference
24–25 October 2009, Perth Sheraton Hotel

The 2009 Rotary Muster conference will highlight issues which confront both country and city Western Australians. Issues such as the GM cropping debate, the health issues being faced by county men and ways of coping. From the business world we have a former country boy who became a Rotary Exchange Student and went on the lead one of Australian largest companies. We’re lucky enough to have a speaker with first hand experience of the Victorian bush fires and the work which Rotary did in their time of need. We plan the “Great Debate” on a topic of major significance for Rotary. As well, there will be three selected club
highlights to emphasise the great activities which continue in our district. And much more!
