President Message
This week I’d like to suggest that Rotary does not have grandchildren.  By this I mean that while we should teach the principles of Rotary to our children or grandchildren, Rotary membership is for individuals, every person individually as a member.  We are not a Rotarian through someone else.  Every Rotarian is a first-generation Rotarian.  You cannot simply be acculturated into the Rotary family, living it because that is the way we were raised, because it is comfortable, or because it is all we know.  Being cultural Rotarians is not enough to transmit our principles, the four-way test and SERVICE ABOVE SELF, to the next generation.
