[Rtn. Stephen Sypula]

Delighted to be able to advise that International projects will be well 
represented at the  House of Friendship this comming weekend.

Paul Manning has produced the D1260 International Stand to display  some of 
the many projects and activities undertaken within the District

In addition there are four Club based  'international' stands ...

Ampthill & District (Nigel Milway) will be there to talk about training 
facilities for youg disabled children in Ghana
Newport Pagnall (Colin Kidby) will exhibit Shoebox
Stevenage Grange (Steve Sypula) ROI - Rotarians & friends making blindness 
history in developing countries
Wolverton & Stony Stratford (John Moss) continues their mission to get 
classrooms into KwaZulu Natal

In addition there will be a display by 'One Water', supporters of the 
PlayPump, and my old friend Russell Richards will once again be manning the 
SightSavers International stand.

Other projects will feature in a 15 minute presentation during the plenery 
sessions

Stevenage Grange has produced a DVD explaining how a donation of just £4 can 
fund a catarct operation and save a young sight. Produced primarily for the 
international audience attending the RI Convention, advance copies wil be 
available for you to collect and show your Club. A donation box will be 
there for Clubs that wish to do so.

We very much look forward to seeing many of you during the weekend.

Best wishes,
Stephen for DISC

PS Don't forget the Rotary funded project - IMPACT's Lifeline Express is 
being shown on BBC4 9pm this Thursday. Should make us feel proud to be 
Rotarians.
