Quite often when asked, “What is Rotary?” it is easy to respond, “We are a Service Organization”, whatever that means. Most of us then begin to enumerate the various local and international projects or causes we support; including programs which aide and promote international understanding; and who hasn’t heard about Rotary’s commitment to the eradication of worldwide polio, or how about the various local and national literacy projects; not to exclude, local food drives, tree planting, and the promotion of Rotaract clubs which introduce and involve college students in “Service Above Self”. Most important for the success of all of these endeavors is the camaraderie.
