“Rotary is an organization of business
and professional persons united worldwide
who provide humanitarian service,
encourage high ethical standards
in all vocations and help build goodwill
and peace in the world.” by Unknown
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful,
committed citizens can change the world.
Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."
by Margaret Mead
"Give until it hurts. What you give may be a
drop in the ocean, but without that drop the ocean will be incomplete."
by Mother Teresa
(Speaking at a Rotary district conference in 1976)
"No one is useless in this world who lightens the
burdens of another."
by Charles Dickens
"I'm very pleased with the symbol and the words
involved in this organization - rotating things - because there's so
much rotation in the universe. The world we're in rotates, and
each object seems to be in some kind of a revolving orbit around
something else. That's how space exists, and I think the term
Rotary is very descriptive."
by Buzz Aldrin

Picture:
Officer James Dave McDonald of the
San Antonio
Police Department tries to cram his usual four hour presentation
into 20 minutes. He did an excellent job talking about
various
programs that the Police Department does to benefit their customers,
the citizens of San Antonio.
The discussion really got lively when
he was asked "When can you shoot somebody in your home?" Don't
mess around with Sunrise Rotarians!
