“I have always believed that the real work of Rotary, the work I have seen in this past year, was not done by me or by any member of the Board of Directors of Rotary International. It was done by you- in every one of your Districts, in every one of your Clubs, and in every one of your communities.” -John Kenny, Rotary International President, What is Rotary?

Cowboy Logic  Take pride in your work  Talk less and say more  Do what has to be done  Some things aren’t for sale “The Clubs are the life and breath of Rotary.” -Ray Klinginsmith, RI President,
