Service Above Self
The Four Way Test
Of things we think we think, say or do.........
Is it the truth?
Is it fair to all concerned?
Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
Is it beneficial to all concerned?
Our members are dedicated to our motto, “Service Above Self”. We participate in various activities that are beneficial to our local, national, and world communities. While we realize that we are part of a worldwide organization, Rotary International, whose mission is to improve the lives of millions of needy people globally, we also recognize the needs within our own community and channel much of our money and energy toward meeting those needs.
One of our biggest projects on the local level each year is the distribution of Christmas baskets. This is a heartwarming, rewarding experience that will truly touch you. We are reminded how fortunate we are and our desire to help others less fortunate grows even stronger. We fund, assemble and distribute 100+ baskets containing various food items, including a ham and turkey, along with other gifts. These baskets are personally delivered by club members to needy families in our community who might not otherwise experience the joy of a great Christmas dinner without our help. We spend about $8000-$10000 on this project, so much of our year is spent raising the money necessary to fund this endeavor. And has our membership grows this project continues to grow, giving us the opportunity to reach even more of our fellow citizens.
We are always looking for new members who share our desire to help others. We have no political or religious agenda and we are not interested in your social status or the size of your pocketbook. We only ask that you be dedicated to the goals of the club. If you are interested in becoming a Rotarian, take a look at the contact information and membership requirements within this site. But be forewarned, we will put you to work.
