Site change for the 2009 RI Convention 

Salt Lake City - The Rotary International Board of Directors has 
changed the tentative site of the 2009 RI Convention from Seoul to 
Birmingham, England. The event was provisionally scheduled in Seoul 
for 21-24 June 2009. 

The change was necessary because some segments of the planning for 
the convention were behind schedule. These delays and other 
associated issues hindered the ability of local Rotary clubs to 
organize and host such a large-scale, international meeting. 

Rotary International's annual convention is a worldwide gathering of 
Rotary members who participate in a broad agenda of plenary sessions 
and workshops focused on how Rotary clubs help to make the world a 
better place through volunteer service. 

The decision was taken at the conclusion of the 2007 Rotary 
convention in Salt Lake City, USA, attended by nearly 17,000 Rotary 
members.
