Rotary District 5300 annually puts on a district-wide peace conference in which we invite Rotarians from our surrounding districts to participate. This year our 31st Annual Peace Conference will occur on Saturday, October 24, 2020, and because it will be held virtually we have expanded our outreach to Rotarians in Zones 26 and 27 and offer it free of charge.

We invite you to participate; and we request that in your communications with your district Rotarians, you help us get the word out to those interested in learning about and promoting peace. This year’s apt theme is:

We have a number of illustrious speakers including immediate past Rotary International President, Mark Daniel Maloney.

The semi-annual clean-up of Highway 20 is open to all members of the Rotary Club of Greater Bend. The Spring cleaning this year is scheduled for Saturday, 28 March. Starting time is 9:00 am. Like we have previously done, suggest we meet at the Tumalo Coffee House (19855 4th Street in Tumalo) on 28 March between 0830 -0900 hrs.

We will supply safety vests, plastic bags, pickup tools, etc. We can refine our pickup strategy based on how many folks show up. A lot of trash has accumulated since our last pick-up, so the more folks that help out the faster it will go. Friends and family members are welcome.

Strongly encourage everyone to bring water and gloves.
