Keynote Speaker

Picture

​​It gives us great pleasure to announce that  Mr. Al  Jubitz,  co-founder of the Rotary Action Group for Peace, will be the keynote speaker for this 87th Assembly.
Mr. Jubitz is the Co-Founder of the Rotary Action Group for Peace and currently its Treasurer and Honorary Chair.

He is a member of the Rotary Club of Portland in District 5100, and was president of the club in 2002 - 2003.

​ Al believes that Rotary is uniquely capable of turning the world toward nonviolent conflict resolution, ultimately leading to a world beyond war.  To that end, he submitted the application for the Rotarian Action Group for Peace to Rotary International. 

Al has been invited to speak at more than 60 Rotary clubs, conferences and community events over the last four years to share his vision that peace is possible and that Rotarians can play a leading role.

Accommodations

A block of rooms has been set aside at both the Waterton Lakes Lodge Resort and the Aspen Village Inn.  Rooms within this block are of several different sorts, each with their own individual pricing. 

      Be warned!!   Accommodation may be tight during the weekend
                      of the  Waterton Assembly due to simultaneous
                                               activities in the community!


The WGIPPA has been given a group rate for these two hotels for the Assembly weekend of CDN$99.00 plus tax for available standard rooms. 

Rates will vary depending on the type of rooms available.  All rooms are on a first come first serve basis.  Any rooms still “holding” and not reserved by WGIPPA persons by the 2nd September 2019 will be released and returned to the public. 

Guests may still book a room and are entitled to the same special group discount after this date (from the 13th-15th Sep. 2019) subject to availability.
