Here is a link to conference details: http://rotary7600.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/D7600-Conference-Details-8.3.17.pdfCome join your fellow Rotarians at the District 7600 Conference on September 22 and 23 in downtown Norfolk at the Norfolk Waterside Marriott. As our own District Governor John Padgett says, it will be “a little bit of Rotary and a lot of fun.” He and Sigur Whitaker, the conference coordinator, are putting a lot of effort into this event that will showcase our city and John's leadership.
The fun kicks off late Friday afternoon September 22 with the “Brew-Ha-Ha." A special craft beer, the Spirit of 7600, is being brewed for the conference. The keg will be tapped by a person from the German delegation to NATO. There will be a competition between the craft beers brewed in Hampton Roads and those brewed with water from the James River in Richmond. Come prepared to sing the praises of the Hampton Roads craft brewers. Saturday night will have a 1970s theme. Come dressed in your bell bottoms. If you are a flower child from the 70s, you can relive your youth. If you are too young to remember, come experience this time in our country’s history.
There is a lot to do at the conference. Get ideas from fellow Rotarians from around Virginia. Learn from speakers, including our very own Sally Hartman, who will share tips for telling your Rotary story Drink some Spirit of 7600, go to a wine tasting, or learn how to take wonderful pictures on your cell phone. Much more to experience.
