Why I Am A Rotarian
FEBRUARY 28, 2006
“…Rotarians
are ordinary people who are taking the opportunities that
Rotary has given them to serve without conceit or pride or
any sense of being special. This is unselfish service
performed in an environment of warm fellowship...
…I joined
Rotary with high expectations. My expectations have been
exceeded, and my wife, Lorna, and I have found that Rotary
has become an integral part of our lives.
I am a
Rotarian because Rotary changes lives. I know this because
Rotary has changed mine.”
