Friday 24th to Sunday 26th February 2023
As active Rotarians in our clubs, we owe ourselves a weekend away, once a year, to relax and enjoy. The District Conference at Cape Schanck has been put together specifically for YOU. To laugh, celebrate & enjoy Rotary fellowship and fun at its best.
Join us for a fabulous weekend at a beautiful venue right here in District 9820.
Please have a look at the promotional video to inspire all Rotarians from District 9820 and surrounding Districts to come on down for a good time and get a bit of sand between our toes.
