PAGE 7 OBJECT OF ROTARY

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:

FIRST – The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service; SECOND – High ethical standards in business and professions; the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations; and the dignifying of each Rotarian’s occupation as an opportunity to serve society; THIRD – The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian’s personal, business and community life; FOURTH – The advancement of international understanding, goodwill and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.

THE FOUR-WAY TEST

From the earliest days of the organisation, Rotarians were concerned with promoting high ethical standards in their professional lives. One of the world’s most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics is The 4-way Test, which was created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J Taylor (who later served as RI president) when he was asked to take charge of a company that was facing bankruptcy.

This 24-word code of ethics for employees to follow in their business and professional lives became the guide for sales, production, advertising, and in all relations with dealers and customers, and the survival of the company is credited to this simple philosophy.

Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The Four-Way Test has been trans lated into more than a hundred languages and published in thousands of ways. It asks the following four questions:

“Of the things we think, say or do….

 Is it the TRUTH?  Is it FAIR to all concerned?

 Will it bring GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?

 Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?”

PAGE 8 SIX AVENUES OF SERVICE

ROTARY’S AVENUES OF SERVICE GUIDE THE WORK OF EVERY ROTARY CLUB…

Club Service, the FIRST Avenue of Service, involves action a member should take within the club to help it function successfully.

Vocational Service, the SECOND Avenue of Service, promotes high ethical standards in businesses and professions, recognises the worthiness of all dignified occupations, and fosters the ideal of service in the pursuit of all vocations. The role of members includes conducting themselves and their businesses in accordance with Rotary’s principles.

Community Service, the THIRD Avenue of Service, comprises varied efforts that members make, sometimes in conjunction with others, to improve the quality of life of those who live within the club’s locality or municipality.

International Service, the FOURTH Avenue of Service, comprises those activities that members do to advance international understanding, goodwill, and peace by fostering acquaintance with people of other countries, their cultures, customs, accomplishments, aspirations, and problems, through reading and correspondence and through cooperation in all club activities and projects designed to help people in other lands.

Youth Service, the FIFTH Avenue of Service, recognises the positive change implemented by youth and young adults through leadership development activities, involvement in community and international service projects, and exchange programs that enrich and foster world peace and cultural understanding.

Next Generations, our District’s SIXTH Avenue of Service, focussing on the transitioning from Rotaract to Rotary.

ROTARY CODE OF CONDUCT

As a Rotarian, I will…

1. Exemplify the core value of integrity in all behaviours and activities. 2. Use my vocational experience and talents to serve in Rotary. 3. Conduct all of my personal, business, and professional affairs ethically, encouraging and fostering high ethical standards as an example to others. 4. Be fair in all dealings with others and treat them with the respect due to them as fellow human beings. 5. Promote recognition and respect for all occupations which are useful to society. 6. Offer my vocational talents: to provide opportunities for young people, to work for the relief of the special needs of others, and to improve the quality of life in my community. 7. Honour the trust that Rotary and fellow Rotarians provide and not do anything that will bring disfavour or reflect adversely on Rotary or fellow Rotarians. 8. Not seek from a fellow Rotarian a privilege or advantage not normally accorded others in a business or professional relationship. PAGE 9 PAGE 10

PAGE 18 PAUL PERCIVAL HARRIS

Paul Harris, the founder of Rotary, was born in Racine, Wisconsin, USA on 19 April 1868. A man with varied knowledge and experience, he received a Bachelor of Physical Culture and honorary LLD from the University of Vermont, and LLB from the University of Iowa.

Paul Harris worked as a newspaper reporter, a business teacher, an actor in a stock company, a cowboy and as a salesman for a marble and granite concern before finally settling in Chicago in 1896 to practice law. In July 1910, he married Jean Thomson, a Scottish girl and co-member of the Chicago Prairie Club. One evening Paul went with a friend to his suburban home. After dinner, as they strolled through the neighbourhood, Paul’s friend greeted by name the various tradesmen at their stores. It occurred to him “Why not in Chicago have a fellowship composed of just one man from each of many different occupations, without restrictions as to their politics or religion, with broad tolerance to each other’s opinion? In such a fellowship, could there not be mutual helpfulness?” On 23 February 1905, Paul Harris formed the first club with three young businessmen – Sylvester Schiele, a coal dealer; Gustavus Loehr, a mining engineer and Hiram Shorey, a tailor. Paul Harris was the first President of the National Association of Rotary Clubs (in 1910), and also of the International Association of Rotary Clubs – the name later changed to Rotary International – in the year 1912. He was active in Rotary until his death on 27 January 1947. Paul Harris once wrote “This is a changing world and we must change with it. The story of Rotary will be written again and again.”

On Rotary’s 36th Anniversary, he said: “Rotary is a miniature model of a world at peace – one which might advantageously be studied by nations; Rotarians believe that the universal application of tolerance and friendliness would bring about the international peace so earnestly desired by everyone.” Today, Rotarians sit in counsel with the United Nations and discuss many issues of world health and peace. The seed Paul Harris sowed in 1905 has blossomed into a large tree covering over 200 countries and geographical regions, with over 34,000 Rotary Clubs having a combined membership of over 1,200,000 Rotarians worldwide … Rotaract has over 200,000 members in over 8,870 clubs across the globe.

COMMUNITY SERVICE Community Service is the opportunity Rotary clubs have to implement club projects and activities that improve life in the local community. The projects can be as varied as the Rotary clubs that carry them out.

When clubs complete effective service projects, they improve the community, bring people together, and this reflects well on Rotary. When Rotary is viewed as a positive force in the community, its membership strengthens and grows, adding to the Club's ability to serve.

Australian Rotary Health The purpose of ARH is to fund community health research projects within Australia. A substantial trust fund has been established with support from Rotary Clubs in all Australian Rotary Districts. The income generated is applied to medical research projects, with the current emphasis on research into mental illness.

CHAIR IPDG Annette Richards Mob: 0413 714 621 Email: [email protected] PAGE 53 NEXT GENERATIONS

There is no doubt that our youth are part of Rotary’s future, but why do so few Rotaractors become Rotarians? This issue is of such importance that it has resulted in the creation of a new District portfolio carved out of New Generations/Youth Service, named Next Generations.

The Next Generations portfolio covers  Rotaract  Rotex (an interest group for ex YEP students)  Youth Alumni  all potential sources of Rotary membership

The Director’s role is equivalent to an Assistant Governor’s role for Rotaract Clubs. The task is to visit Rotaract Clubs on a regular basis, spread the word of what is happening within the District, assist Rotaract Club presidents during their year of office and report to the District Leadership Team on Rotaract activities.

But more importantly, the task is to identify reasons why Rotaractors do not often become Rotarians. It will be an interesting journey of discovery, coordinating with Rotaractors throughout the District, working with them on the possible transition of members to Rotary.

DIRECTOR Bruce Mills Mob: 0409 727 183 Email: [email protected]

Rotaract Sponsor a Rotaract Club for young professionals ages 18-30, using the Rotaract Handbook (562) and Rotaract Brochure (663). Rotary Clubs are responsible for supporting Rotaract Clubs with expenses, such as training and development.

RI CEREMONIES

The day that a person becomes a Rotarian can be the beginning of many years devoted to service and fellowship. Such an event warrants special recognition and a formal induction ceremony is considered appropriate.

When planning an induction ceremony consider inviting the new member’s family to attend and make sure the sponsoring Rotarian is present as well. Consider presenting the new member with a copy of the induction script, with their name and other appropriate text inserted (not blank spaces), as a memento of the occasion.

In addition many clubs also present a ‘New Member’s Kit’ containing useful publications such as a copy of the 4-way Test, recent back issues of the RDU Magazine, a copy of ‘Rotary Basics’, recent Club Newsletters, and so on.

The following scripts represent typical Rotary induction ceremonies. They can be modified, shortened, or expanded to meet the needs of your Club. Other scripts can be found in publications of RI or by reference to the District Information Officers.

THE CLUB MEETING PROCEDURE  District Governor Stephen and Lisa are guests of your Club for the Rotary meeting.  The District Governor's presentation is the only programme for the Club meeting, it is not appropriate to schedule any other programme or speaker at that meeting.  Encourage Club members and their partners to arrive early for the meeting, or stay late, in order to meet and enjoy fellowship with District Governor Stephen and Lisa.  Presentations of Paul Harris Fellow Recognitions, induction of new members and other presentations are especially appropriate during the District Governor's visit. The District Governor may be asked to participate in such events, and should be advised in advance of the meeting.  DG Stephen would like a three minute segment from a member of your club ... “Your Rotary Moment” ... he would love to hear ‘what MADE Rotary make sense to them; or what was that SOMETHING that just clicked’.  Clubs are requested to discuss any contemplated change for the Official Visit, or the format, with the District Governor so questions can be resolved early.

GIFTS FOR DISTRICT GOVERNOR  Personal gifts are discouraged.  It is the District Governor’s wish that you make a presentation at the meeting of a cheque with any allocated funds towards Polio Plus (cheque made payable to: The Rotary Foundation - Polio).

WHAT DO WE HAVE TO DO? 1.

IMPORTANT EVENTS & DATES ATTENDANCE AT P.E.T.S.

Many districts are currently holding their President Elect Training Seminars, more commonly referred to as PETS.

It is important that the presidents elect of all clubs attend, as it is mandatory part of their training so that they are well equipped to lead their club in the coming year. This also applies to those who have previously been club presidents, as they are not exempt. There is always something new for them to learn, and the theme changes from year to year.

RCOP 23.030.4. Participants

All club presidents-elect in the district shall attend the PETS as required by Article 10, Section 5 of the Standard Rotary Club Constitution. Other participants should include the governor-elect, assistant governors, and the district trainer.

Standard Rotary Club Constitution Article 10 Section 5

(C) Qualifications. Each officer and director shall be a member in good standing of this club. The president-elect shall attend the district presidents-elect training seminar and the district assembly unless excused by the governor-elect. If so excused, the president-elect shall send a designated club representative who shall report back to the president-elect. If the president-elect does not attend the presidents- elect training seminar and the district assembly and has not been excused by the governor-elect or, if so excused, does not send a designated club representative to such meetings, the president-elect shall not be able to serve as club president. In such event, the current president shall continue to serve until a successor who has attended a president-elect training seminar and district assembly or training deemed sufficient by the governor-elect has been duly elected.

Where ‘shall’ appears in the Rotary International governing documents it should be taken to read ‘must’ as it implies that whatever is being referred to is mandatory.

BEFORE YOU PROPOSE A NEW MEMBER OF A CLUB

How to make clubs vibrant and attract new members

1. Survey members

Take a survey to determine what members believe the club does well, what it could do better, and what else it could be doing. Schedule a board meeting to discuss the results and determine a plan of action.

2. Enhance your public image

Design your club website with public relations in mind. Take advantage of the best practices in Web design. Make sure you provide accurate information, with your club’s name and meeting time and place prominently displayed on the home page. Ask yourself: Does this website help visitors understand Rotary?

3. Think big

Plan at least one project each year that reaches beyond anything your club has done before. Be sure to publicise your event in local media. Join with other clubs in your district to apply for an RI Public Relations Grant to promote Rotary on a larger scale.

4. Be strategic

Use these RI resources to create a long-term vision for your club. A three-year strategic plan provides a framework for setting goals and ensures continuity. It can also help your club increase membership, enhance Rotary’s public image, and carry out more effective projects.

5. Invite someone today

Pick up the phone and invite a friend, colleague, client, or service provider to a meeting. Many people join Rotary only after seeing firsthand the spirit of fellowship at club meetings and the commitment to community service.

FREQUENCY OF ROTARY MEETINGS

There have been a number of enquiries as to how often a Rotary Club HAS to meet. The answer is WEEKLY.

The only clubs that are an exception to this are those who were selected to participate in the Meeting Frequency Pilot Project (due to end 30th June 2013), and the Flexible and Innovative Club Pilot Project (due to end 30th June 2014). District 9630 is not a participant in either of these pilots.

All new clubs must meet weekly, and there is no authority given to a District Governor to be able to authorise a club to meet less than weekly.

However, that does not mean that the meetings always have to have the same format, for example, it does not always have to be a meeting with a meal. There may be a meal only every second week, or perhaps even once a month. This would certainly reduce the cost of participation. Some of the allocated meeting times may be set aside for project work.

There were submissions to the Council on Legislation held in April 2013 that had potentially enabled a change in this requirement. However, they were not successful.

INVOCATIONS

Many Rotary Clubs customarily open their weekly meetings with an appropriate invocation or blessing. Usually such invocations are offered without reference to specific religious denominations or faiths.

Rotary policy recognises that throughout the world, Rotarians represent many religious beliefs, ideas, and creeds.

The religious beliefs of each member are fully respected and nothing in Rotary is intended to prevent each individual from being faithful to such convictions.

Because each Rotary Club is autonomous, the practice of presenting a prayer or invocation at club meetings is left entirely to the traditions and customs of the individual club, with the understanding that these meeting rituals are non- denominational in nature and conducted in a way that respects the religious convictions and faiths of all members.

INNER WHEEL The organisation was formed in Manchester in 1924, and the first Inner Wheel Club outside Great Britain and Ireland was founded in Ballarat in 1931.

Combining Friendship with service and understanding empowers members to make a difference and had enabled Inner Wheel Australia to fund 17 Grants for Cord Blood Research.

To become a member requires the familial connection with a Rotarian or former Rotarian and strengthens the co-operation and high regard that exists between Rotary and Inner Wheel.

A list of Inner Wheel Clubs in Rotary District 9630 with meeting times and venues follows:

 Brisbane West 1st Monday for dinner 6.30 for 6.45pm McLeod Country Golf Club, Gertrude McLeod Crescent, Mt Ommaney

PROBUS PROBUS is an association for active retirees who join together in clubs; the basic purpose of which is to provide regular opportunities for them to keep their minds active, expand their interests and to enjoy the fellowship of new friends.

Rotary’s role is to seek out the need to form new PROBUS clubs in the wider community to provide members of the community with fresh ideas to enrich and fulfil their lives in retirement. This investment will provide a great long term return to the community and provide Rotary with opportunities for volunteers for Rotary projects and prospects of future Rotarians from the families of PROBUS members.

What better community activity for seniors than PROBUS; meeting the needs of retirees by providing opportunities to keep their minds active, expand their interests, stay healthy through activities, benefit from training programs, network between likeminded people and enjoy the fellowship of new friends.
