Eleven Governor Nominees from Six Countries Attend the 1999 Governor Nominee Hospitality Program
Each year’s program is special and this year it was especially so because we had guests from countries that had not been represented in a long time. We also had more Clubs and Rotarians involved in our district. This is a wonderful way to fulfill the Fourth Object of Rotary "The Advancement of International Understanding, Good Will, and Peace through a world of fellowship of business and professional people united in the ideal of service".

Program
For the past 30 years Brighton Rotary Club and District 7120 has home hosted over 346 Governor Nominees and their spouses from 28 countries worldwide. Each Governor Nominee guest is assigned two Rotary hosts. Their first host meets them at the airport on arrival and takes them to their home. In the middle of their stay everyone meets at Brighton Rotary Club’s Exchange Dinner. All the hosts and guests have the opportunity to get acquainted and share Rotary experiences. When the meeting is over the guests leave with their second host for the balance of their stay. The following pages describe some of this years activities and the comments from guests. If you are an alumnus of our hospitality program we hope this issue brings back fond memories and that you will be reminded to recommend our program to your Governor Elect. If you are a Governor Elect we hope this newsletter will make you want to come to our hospitality program.
