FIVE  POWERFUL REASONS FOR BELONGING TO ROTARY

1. Friendship
In an increasingly complex world, Rotary provides one of the most basic human needs: the need for friendship and fellowship.
 It is one of two reasons why Rotary began in 1905.
2.
Business Development
The second original reason for Rotary's beginning is business development. Everyone needs to network. Rotary consists of
 a cross section of every business community.
Its members come from all walks of life. Rotarians help each other.
3.
Personal Growth and Development
Membership in Rotary continues one's growth and education in human relations and personal development.
4.
Leadership Development
Rotary is an organization of leaders and successful people. Serving in Rotary positions is like a college education. Leadership:
learning how to motivate, influence and lead leaders.
5.
Citizenship in the community
Membership in a Rotary club makes one a better community citizen. The average Rotary club consists of the most active
citizens of any community.

COMMUNITY SERVICE  

Mission Viejo Rotary and The City of Mission

Viejo honor long-time resident and volunteer!

On the corner of Marguerite and Olympiad, you can now find a “Mission Viejo Bear” honoring
Mark “Ziggy” Wilczynski - a long-time resident and volunteer extraordinaire. The City monument was
funded by the City of Mission Viejo and
the Rotary Club of Mission Viejo. Ziggy did so much for the
City and the honor is very fitting. Mayor, and Rotary club president, Dave Leckness, was instrumental
in providing this honor for one of Mission Viejo’s finest residents.


 

having a great time!”

It will also show how the Rot.Foundation makes a difference in the lives of young children---the future generation.

                                             The Test   Click here for Story of the 4 WayTest

The 4 Way Test
   Of the things we think, say or do:
  1. Is it the
TRUTH?
2. Is it
FAIR to all concerned?
 3. Will it build
GOODWILL and
         better
FRIENDSHIPS
?
4. Will it be
BENEFICIAL to all
          concerned?  

To some their Rotary membership is almost the most precious thing in life.
Why this affection for Rotary? It is the love of man for his fellow man. When stripped of all formalities and creeds, fellowship flourishes. Rotary draws no lines of politics or religion, Mohamedans, Budhists, Christians and Jews, break bread together in happy fellowship.
