On Saturday August 25th, 2018 Rotary Clubs of The Bahamas hosted its first Interclub Assembly under the theme “Be The Inspiration”, which is the 2018-2019 presidential theme for Rotary International President Barry Rassin.  Highlights of the Assembly included a panel of Past Rotary Presidents who led the audience in a discussion on the topic, “Challenges Faced by Clubs” and a panel discussion lead by Rotaractors on the topic “Ensuring the Transition from Rotaract to Rotary”.

"Rotary Interclub Assemblies provide the perfect opportunity for us to come together as a Rotary family in an atmosphere of fellowship and collaboration to exchange ideas, foster partnerships with other clubs and to elevate the discussion in regards to Rotary’s role in our community”, said Mario Smith, Assistant Governor for Rotary Clubs of The Bahamas (East) and event Chairman.

Bryan Knowles, Assistant Governor for Rotary Clubs of The Bahamas (West) added, “The event demonstrated that future Interclub Assemblies will provide the space in which Rotary Bahamas will unite to strengthen our organization and to strengthen our service to our communities and the world.”
