Dear Rotarian,
I am pleased to announce that some of the Rotarians of District 9930 will be off to India for a National Immunisation Day (three days actually) and a fully escorted tour. See attached.
As you may know we have been working on the tour for quite a long time and District Governor Peter has given it his blessing. The tour company is the same company that took 38 Rotarians from District 9940 to India and a NID last February. They all had a fabulous, life changing time.
I am at this stage only asking for “Expressions of Interest”. The price for the tour is about NZ$4,500.00 (2,155 British Pounds) and the flight both ways is about NZ$2,225.00 amounting to a total of about $6,750. Of course there are tour jackets and t-shirts to be paid for so think of about $7,000.00 plus spending money.
The tour will start Wednesday November 9th from Auckland and return to Auckland Friday November 25th 2011.
In the years to come polio, like smallpox, will be consigned to history. This is your chance to see what Rotary does on the world stage. Come and see the results of twenty five years of donating to eliminating polio on earth.
We wish to keep numbers to about 25 Rotarians only as the Tour Company feels this number is most manageable so it will be a case of first come first served. If you wish further information and express interest in this tour please email me at your earliest.
Yours in Rotary

Dear Max,
ReplyDeleteThank you very much - we're absolutely delighted to be taking you and your fellow Rotarians to India!
We'll be in touch over the coming weeks with more information - and I (or my husband Clive) may give you a call to touch base.
Thanks again.
