Purpose and ObjectThe purpose for Rotary was to form a club representing a cross section of the businesses and professions within the boundaries granted to the club by its charter. The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster the development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service - high ethical standards in business and professions; the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations; and the dignifying of each Rotarians occupation as an oppor¬tunity to serve society - the application of the ideal of service in each Rotarians personal, business, and com¬munity life - the advancement of international understanding, good¬will, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service. The Magic of RotaryThe Magic of Rotary is not a name or a number, an emblem or motto; it is Service. It is not the recitation of high-sounding ideals and worthy objectives, but the translation of those ideals and objectives into everyday life. It is not the statement of principles, but their practical application in an individual’s personal business, professional and community life. The magic – the genius – the Power of Rotary is friendly service finding expression in the lives of men. Charles G. “Buzz” Tennent |
