LIVE STRONG, PLAY BALL


We have successfully hosted a basketball tournament between Rotary, Rotaract, Interact clubs of Mongolia. The tournament lasted whole Sunday (June 21st, 09') where 7 male and 4 female teams competed each other for the title.

Rotaract club of Niislel won the male 1st place and Interact club of Orchlon girls came 1st in female category.

The Championship Trophy went to Interact club of SION 93 for their active participation of 3 teams including two male teams. Which earned them the right to organize and host the event the following year.

Big hearted thank you goes out to Magnay, Tushig and Ochhuu for their time and talent to make this tournament run smoothly.

GALA Night concert for Mr.D K LEE Rotary International President



Our Rotaractors participated and devoted their time at GALA Night concert for Mr.D K LEE Rotary International President at 22th May, 2009

It was one of those memorable nights and events of our life as a Rotaract. It felt really nice singing “R-O-T-A-R-Y” song with Morin Huur ensemble.


After the concert Rotaracts from 4 clubs went to Veranda's CELLAR lounge for couple of drinks which was nice. Did some catching up with former older members of different Rotaract clubs.

We started our day early and packed our books in the back of Tushig's truck and drove outskirt of the town to find school #19.

We drove from Tolgoit --> Shar Had --> Uliastai -->Honhor. The trip was about 100km.
After when we done with the distribution of the brand new Russian textbooks we all went to a chinese restaurant and celebrated our little accomplishment.

Special thanks to everyone who was involved and Altansuvd Member of Rotary club of Ulaanbaatar for asking us to get the books where they are needed most.
