Each week I will highlight something about Rotary that all Rotarians should know or be aware of. In August 1912, the Rotary Club of London received its charter from the International Association of Rotary Clubs, marking the first acknowledged Rotary club outside North America. It later became known that the Dublin club in Ireland was organized before the London club, but the Dublin club did not receive its charter until after the London club was chartered. During World War I, Rotary in Britain increased from 9 to 22 clubs, and other early clubs in other nations included those in Cuba in 1916, Philippines in 1919 and India in 1920. Rotary was on its way to being a global presence.
|
In 1922, the name was changed to Rotary International from the International Association of Rotary Clubs. From 1923 to 1928, Rotary's office and headquarters were located on E 20th Street (now E Cullerton Street) in the Atwell Building. During this same time, the monthly magazine The Rotarian was published mere floors below by Atwell Printing and Binding Company. By 1925, Rotary had grown to 200 clubs with more than 20,000 members.

The Four-Way Test of the things we think, say or do
|
- Is it the truth?
- Is it fair to all concerned?
- Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
- Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
Last Thursday the Club had our installation of officers. The installation was led by Rick Tinucci and Rose Cooper who did a marvelous job of organizing and keeping the pace moving. If you got one thing out of the program, I ask you to Be a Rotarian not just a member of Rotary. Many thanks to Bob Garagiola’s Board who did a tremendous job of handling the transition of our administrative position, welcoming the Civilian Satellite Rotary group, dealing with the COVID 19 pandemic, maintaining financial soundness and working on ideas for the future among others. OUTSTANDING WORK
|
Now we move onto the 2020-21 Rotary year. We still have some transition to complete and some challenges ahead. I feel like we have the Board to accomplish this but we need everyone involved. Check Dacdb for a complete list of the new officers.
|
Our next meeting will be July 16th with our own (Past President) Mary Jane Thomsen giving us an update on the great work of the Red Cross. Please plan to attend on the 16th as this should be a very timely program during these trying times. Hopefully I will see you there live but if not plan to attend via zoom.
|
ZOOM BROADCAST WILL CONTINUE FOR AT LEAST UNTIL THE END OF JULY FOR THOSE THAT CANNOT MAKE IT IN PERSON.
|
Remember to complete the new pre-meeting online registration starting with this meeting that Joan will send out. This pertains to both those attending live and virtually. Although this is not mandatory (yet) please respond to the email to give us a good idea of attendance. It worked very well last week.
|
PLEASE CONTINUE TO WORK AT BEING HEALTHY DURING THESE TRYING TIMES
