For the past 45 years Brighton Rotary Club and District 7120 have home hosted over 469 Governors Elect and their spouses from 43 countries worldwide.The idea for the program was conceived in 1969 by PDG Milt Matthews, and has been copied by many other Districts throughout the United States.
 
Each Governor Elect guest is assigned two Rotary hosts so they get to visit different areas of the district. The guests live with the hosts, see the local sites, join in on local activities and where possible attend club meetings.The guests will leave for the International Assembly with a bevy of new friends that will last a lifetime.
 
This year's guests were hosted by Rotarians Ashok Gupta, Grace and Taylor Soong.  These photos were taken at the Belhurst Castle Friendship Lunch last Sunday, Jan. 11.
