On Tuesday, March 21st 2023, our lunch program is our annual Invention Convention. Every year, Rotary Club of Greater Bend hosts the “Invention Convention” where students from Miller Elementary School are encouraged to think up (and present to the club and their family members) their inventions to “save the world” or just make life a little easier for all of us.

It’s absolutely amazing what ideas these young entrepreneurs come up with and this event always leaves us feeling more positive about the future!

Club members help with judging which takes a good half day since virtually every student at the school takes part in this fun event!

Signup for lunch here.

This meeting will both in-person at the Riverhouse Convention Center, and virtual.
