Welcome

Service above Self

In preparation for becoming President of the Rotary Club of Burlington, I attended a Presidents training session during which all incoming Presidents were asked to high-light their clubs service projects. I quickly started writing, and by the time it became my turn to speak my list was 17 items long. The entrees ranged from Hands for Honduras to Pure Water for the World, from recognizing Burlingtons fine Police Force to awarding medals to some very special athletes at the Special Olympics; from a beautification project for the Gateway to Burlington to planting flowers at City Hall Plaza. My list went on and on, and it was the same for many of the others. Service above Self is more than a slogan; it is a way of life for the Rotary Club of Burlington and 32,000 Rotary Clubs around the world.
