History of
Rotary in Greece Leaving Istanbul,
Jim Davidson flew to Athens on November 18,
1928 and
within less than a month had found enough business and
professional men to
unite in organising a Rotary Club. This brought together men of
sharply
divided political opinions, both Royalists and Republicans,
under the
presidency of Spiro Loverdos, one of the leading bankers in
Athens. The
charter membership was entirely Greek, unlike many of Davidson's
other
clubs. The charter was presented and the club formally received
into Rotary
on January 30, 1929.
