Hands Across the Border ceremony between US and Canadian authorities and citizens.
In 1931, nearly 100 Rotarians from the United States and Canada met in the historic Prince of Wales Hotel in Waterton Lake National Park and informally pledged peace across our respective borders. Out of that gathering, Rotarians lobbied each country's governments to then officially declare, in 1932, that the combined Glacier and Waterton parks to be known as the WATERTON-GLACIER International Peace Park. This year's celebration will be hosted by Canadian Rotarians on September 13-15, hosting speakers, dinners, hikes, guided tours and international fellowship at the Waterton Lakes Lodge Resort and Aspen Village Inn.
Any Montana Rotarian, spouse and kids are welcome to attend and can pre-register at the OFFICIAL WEBSITE. Our three inbound exchange students for the school year will also attend and meet their Canadian exchange student counterparts as part of their exchange education that promotes goodwill and peace among nations.
