Representatives of all the rotary clubs in Belize, Guatemala and Honduras will be meeting for the next two days to discuss the organization’s plans for the coming year.

“The projects that are being imposed here in this region, in Central America, are the same that Rotary has in the whole world. Maybe the first or surely most important has been polio plus programmes, which the purpose has been to eliminate the polio by the year 2005. Which will be the first century of Rotary International.”
