Dear Rotarian,
WELCOME to the Fayrotales
newsletter
RI President Bill Boyd reminds us what Rotary is all
about in January Rotarian -- "first and foremost,
Rotary is about service and putting Service Above
Self. Rotary was founded for fellowship, but it quickly
grew into an organization where people who wanted
to serve others came together to do it - better, more
effectively and more enjoyably than they could have
alone." Find an area in 2007 in Club Service,
Vocational Service, Community Service or
International Service to practice these Rotary ideals.

stimulate memory and recovery.
