Chris' Blog - 10th May

10 May 29/47.

The Presentation. We were the third GSE team, following the inbound team from Canada, the outbound from Canada, us and then the out bound team to D9600. And the result!!! Rather than using my own words I will quote from people that spoke to us afterwards.

“Best presentation at the conference”, “Most professional GSE presentation every delivered at a D9210 conference”, “Not only do we know about you, we know about your country as well – something not many teams have been able to do”. etc. And we even gave them “Heads and Tails” 300+ people in one game. So much so that I as team leader spent the next 2 hours talking to Rotarians about how to prepare, and present, people asking for copies of the presentation. D9600 – you would have been proud of your team, and the magnificent members that your clubs have nominated.

The afternoon was spent on a tour of Lusaka. We then prepared for the Governors Dinner. After a mix up with the bus, we arrived 2 hours late, but really got into the festivities. The night doubled as the DG’s change over and awards night. A fun evening was had by all, although it was quite sad at the end when we had to say good bye to our friends and hosts from the clubs that had hosted us during the past 3+ weeks. After a later return, we all hit the sack dead tired.
