Regrettably\, there is no longer sufficient “UN-authorized” space for two programs.  We will i nstead include Rotaractors and other young professionals in our one UN Day program.  In keeping with the above decision\, we are limiting event par ticipation to age 18 and over.  While this was not an easy decision\, we want to emphasize\, that supporting our youth is a high priority.  Should groups be interested in the United Nations\, we encourage Interactors or others to explore attending or creating their own Model United Nations pro gram.  More information is available at: Model UN. Another option is UNIC EF’s Voices of Youth.   Finally\, while space is limited\, with Presid ent Mark’s emphasis on membership growth\, we want to share the good tha t Rotary does with those who do not yet know Rotary.  As such\, we are se eking 30 percent nonRotary affiliated participants to join us for the day.   Rotary Day at the United Nations can be an opportunity to introduce pro spective members and we will encourage the general public to attend. Indee d\, every Rotarian should plan to bring a prospective member with them.  We look forward to a revitalized Rotary Day at the United Nations/ New Yor k and\, together\, celebrating how the United Nations and Rotary Connects the World.   District 7390 has reserved a 55 passenger deluxe motorcoach to transport attendees to the United Nations Day. Since the schedule for the day has not yet been published\, exact departure and return times have not been established. However\, if you would like to attend the UN day\, you can reserved your seat on the bus NOW! Seats will be reserved on a fir st come\, first served basis. The cost is $50 per person to reserve a seat on the bus. That does not include your admission into the UN.
