Get Your Copy!

Many of our Rotarian friends have been asking for the 'Reflection' book published by the Club on the occasion of the Past Rotary International President Raja Saboo and Usha Saboo's Golden Jubilee of selfless service to Humanity.   The book contains the messages from various  Rotary leaders from around the globe when they learnt about the event that our Club hosted last year.
'Reflections' was quickly compiled and presented to Raja and Usha Saboo by our Club. 
Click on the link below and read it online, or download it if you wish. 


Our very own District Governor 2010-11  Madhukar Malhotra has published the District 3080 Report of Activities for the year.  This provides a quick overview of the accomplishments of Rotarians in the District.  Read it on line or share it with your Rotary colleagues or even non-Rotarians to showcase the service activities of Rotary in our District.

Peace Through Service


The theme for the Rotary Year 2012-13 announced by the incoming President of Rotary International, Sakuji Tanaka, unveiled at the International Assembly, is :
“PEACE THROUGH SERVICE”

Peace, in all of the ways that we can understand it, is a real goal and a realistic goal for Rotary. Peace is not something that can only be achieved through agreements, by governments, or through heroic struggles. It is something that we can find and that we can achieve, every day and in many simple ways.

No definition is right, and no definition is wrong,
 However we use the word, this is what peace means for us

“In Rotary, our business is not profit. Our business is peace,” . “Our reward is not financial, but the happiness and satisfaction of seeing a better, more peaceful world, one that we have achieved through our own efforts.”
Tanaka will ask Rotarians to focus their energy on supporting the three priorities of the RI Strategic Plan , he said. He added that he will ask the incoming leaders to promote three Rotary peace forums, to be held in Hiroshima, Japan; Berlin; and Honolulu, Hawaii, USA.
