One big smile from Bangkok
Exactly 2,012 participants
form Thailand’s Biggest Smile at the 2012 RI Convention in Bangkok.
The 2012 RI Convention in Bangkok, Thailand, has drawn to
a close. But the event is still leaving a big smile on many people’s faces.
On 7 May, exactly 2,012 participants put on yellow and blue jackets and
hoods to form Thailand’s Biggest Smile at the Impact Arena for Ripley’s
Believe It Or Not. The number 2012 reflected the convention year and the
year Rotary members celebrated exceeding Rotary’s US$200 Million Challenge
for polio eradication.
The activity also fit in with the RI Convention concept of “The Land of a
Thousand Smiles” which conveyed the friendliness of the host country and its
people.
The event received major media coverage in the Thailand area and beyond. A
photo also appeared on the Photo Blog of msnbc.com, giving excellent
exposure to Rotary and its End Polio Now message.
