In May, 2024, 15 Rotarians and their partners travelled to Korea, Singapore (for the Rotary Convention) and Vietnam. A Banner Presentation to the President and Past President of the Rotary Club of Seoul, Korea was made by Rotarians from Livonia, Michigan, Bracebridge, Haliburton and Wasaga Beach at a brief meeting on Buddah's birthday, followed by a traditional Buddhist dinner of very strange vegetarian items. Can you say "Kimchi" (like Nancy was saying when they took the photo!)
