CHAIR, PDG daVE eWING WEBMASTER GREG BARLOW HISTORY CALENDAR COMMITTEE WHAT'S NEW? DISCUSSION
www.districthistory.org

We are collecting all the histories of the districts of Rotary.  If your district is not listed below, send your district's history today from our "Comment" page. It is our hope that this will allow greater communication between Rotarians and knowledge of the entire history of Rotary which will foster greater cooperation among Rotarians, their clubs, and their nations.  You could also become an official RGHF district representative. This part of our project began on 20 March 2003, with Texas district 5810, under the direction of then Exec. VP Doug Rudman

As of 12/06/2008, we have 255 of the world's 532* district histories posted.  English language unless otherwise noted. The coordinator is PDG Dave Ewing, USA. The webmaster is Greg Barlow, Malaysia

District History Groups

SUGGESTED FORMAT for compiling a history of your District
 SUGGESTED FORMAT for compiling a history of your Club

Our district history section is divided into groups, as we continue to seek the history of every district which could include every club in the world. NOTICE: Some of these districts contain incomplete information and we urge our visiting Rotarians to provide more complete details at www.historycomment.org 

  • 1000-2999  

  • 3000-4999  

  • 5000-6999  

  • 7000-8999  

  • 9000-9999

    * The number of Rotary districts is not static. In 2005-06, there were 529; in 2006-07, 530; in 2007-08, 532. Every year, the districting committee meets at the International Assembly and reviews proposals to consolidate smaller districts or partition larger districts. The districting committee monitors carefully those districts that fall below the required 1,000 Rotarians and 30 clubs. The committee may recommend consolidation or other action as necessary.

You could become eligible to apply to be the official Rotary Global History District History Representative for your district or region. You must be a member of Rotary and also a member in good standing of RGHF. You would be expected to maintain your district’s history and any other histories of Rotary that are from your district. You’ll also be requested to make presentations at district, zone, and club meetings on behalf of RGHF. To be considered visit www.joinrghf.org  This idea was proposed by RGHF member, PDG Dave Ewing, D6650, USA and accepted by The Fellowship Board in March of 2008

To send a message to a Rotary Global History district history representative, use our comment page, under District History, include the RGHF District Historian's name, and your comment or message.
