It was awesome to see members from our District in Taipei, Taiwan, at the Convention! 🇹🇼

Even cooler, Rotary Club of Jacksonville-Oceanside incoming President-Elect Danielle Fisher was given the opportunity to take over Rotary International's Instagram for a day! Another exciting highlight was seeing Tatty Chavz of Beaches Rotaract serving on the RI social media team. 😎

Also spotted were incoming RI Director Marshall Butler and incoming District Governor-Elect Ed Lombard. Way to represent the First Coast!

The Rotary International Convention is a wonderful opportunity to embrace different cultures, reconnect with old friends, and make new ones from around the world. 🌎🤝

With the end of the school year, we are wrapping up another year of Rotary Youth Exchange. On a recent Sunday, the Inbound RYE students hosted by District 6970 during the 2025-26 school year gathered one last time to celebrate their exchange year, to thank their host families and host clubs, and to support the future Outbound RYE students who have been preparing all spring for their Exchanges.

During this past year, District 6970 was fortunate to host students from the Czech Republic, Germany, Japan, and Romania. We appreciate the host families for welcoming the Inbound RYE students into their homes and their families.

A special thanks to the four host clubs from 2025-26: the Rotary Club of Bartram Trail-Julington Creek, the Rotary Club of Gainesville, the Rotary Club of Gainesville Sunrise, and the Rotary Club of St. Augustine.

Learn more about District 6970 Rotary Youth Exchange at https://www.rye6970.org/, including how your club can sponsor at Outbound student and host an Inbound student. Host family applications for 2027-28 are open now; Outbound applications for the 2027-28 academic year will open on August 1, 2026.

Reflecting on our District Conference and all the incredible memories we made. From the energy of the live drum line to the scenic boat ride along the St. Johns River, and awards that will be cherished for years to come, it was truly a special event.
