Next year at the District Conference in Torquay we will again be featuring the popular "Big Picture". The photograph above shows last year's successful display in which almost every Club in 1260 showcased their activities and achievements across the year.

The theme for Torquay will be: "What we did to End Polio Now". We are in the third and final year of raising funds and awareness of Polio around Rotary Day. Over the three years Clubs have organised events, planted crocuses, participated in immunisations, presented in schools and publicised in town centres - and generally given great support to the important Rotary End Polio Now campaign.

No doubt all our Clubs will be making one more big push in February, so this is early warning that we will be inviting every Club (whether you are able to attend conference or not) to celebrate your great work supporting the Polio Programme across all three years - so get your cameras snapping, dig out the photos and get creative.

The District Conference each year is a great opportunity to learn more about the big world of Rotary and to meet Rotarians from other Clubs. If you have joined Rotary in the last few years, why not get booked up and come along. There is a lot more to Rotary than many of us realise.
