Rotary Club of St. Louis – Club 11
President Elect’s Telegram
Going forward each week I will highlight something about Rotary that all Rotarians should know or be aware of.
THE 4-WAY TEST
The Four-Way Test is a nonpartisan and nonsectarian ethical guide for Rotarians to use for their personal and professional relationships. The test has been translated into more than 100 languages, and Rotarians recite it at club meetings: Of the things we think, say or do. It is a test used by Rotarians world-wide as a moral code for personal and business relationships. The test can be applied to almost any aspect of life.
We had another successful virtual Rotary meeting on Thursday June 4th. It was a very inspiring program by Trish Cheatham from Think Tank with some outstanding information. Thanks to Andrew Darling who works with Trish for setting up this program. Outstanding company.
BUT NOW – we will have our next meeting live at the MAC on Thursday June 18th. Club 11 Rotarian Dale Ruthsatz will be the speaker, giving us an update on the many developments in the City of St. Louis. I hope most of you come downtown for the meeting. If you don’t feel comfortable or if you can’t make it, we will be zooming the meetings that you can watch at home.
PLEASE CONTINUE TO WORK AT BEING HEALTHY DURING THESE TRYING TIMES
Please be assured that your Board of Directors for our club is taking measures and making decisions that will make keeping everyone’s health the top priority. Always remember as we come out of this all of our meetings and activities will be optional, and each individual should make decisions that are best for YOU.
We are all dealing with an unprecedented situation with COVID-19. Hopefully, we will get through this in short order and be able to get back to our “normal” lives again. When we get through this, hopefully we will realize how important our FREEDOM is and we can work harder on treating each other kindly every day.
UPDATE – President Bob continues to get a little stronger every day. He had a birthday on June 7th – HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOB!!! Hope you are able to join us again soon. More great Rotary compassion and spirit

“Call a Rotarian” – President Bob kicked off this program on April 7th. Let’s see if we can keep this going in support of Bob. I think this is a good gesture and will help keep us connected. And you will feel good just to make a “personal” connection. I know I have and if you do also, you’ll be amazed at the results.
Finally, if you have
questions, concerns, or ideas regarding Club 11
