Other Information

Our motto, SERVICE ABOVE SELF, embodies our humanitarian spirit. Rotary’s Avenues of Service guide our activities:
-
Through Club Service, we have fun, build lasting friendships, and make sure that our club runs well
-
Through Vocational Service, we volunteer our professional skills to serve others and promote integrity in everything we do
-
Through Community Service , we address local needs and work with our community to bring lasting improvements
-
Through International Service, we meet humanitarian needs around the globe and promote world understanding and peace
-
Through New Generations Service, we work with young people to help them become the next generation of leaders, visionaries, and peacemakers
THE FOUR-WAY TEST, created by a Rotarian, underscores our commitment to integrity:
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?
“If you truly want to give back to your community – and to the world at large – you join Rotary. It has an arm that reaches across all barriers. To be a part of that is very powerful.” – Aruna Koushik, Rotary Club of Windsor- Roseland, Ontario, Canada
