From RI Governor Elect, Jennifer Jones (abbreviated)
It is with great excitement that I am writing to let you know that Nick and I will be starting the 2022-23 Rotary year as President of Rotary International on a tour from coast to coast to coast across Canada.
There is a countrywide team planning the tour and we will be officially announcing the dates and locations following the International Assembly this February. Each destination is intended to be a “hub” that will draw from surrounding districts and geographical areas.
The Canada tour is part of a global effort to elevate the profile of Rotary.
