Presidents Message

President's Message 2018-19

Welcome to the Rotary Club of Carlton, I am excited to serve as President of this very dynamic club in its 34^th year.

The organisation of Rotary has a compelling story to tell, however, it is perhaps at the grassroots, within a small club like Carlton, where a true sense of connectedness to the community exists. Often referred to as “the friendly club”, the camaraderie of our club is powerful. Aside from the personal fulfilment of being involved in community/philanthropic work, the friendship, mentorship and support the club provides to its members is invaluable and remains a constant.

DG Bronwyn Stephens

Rotarians worldwide are inspired by the Rotary theme of “Service Above Self” and are guided by reference to ‘The Four-Way Test’. In particular, ‘The Four-Way Test’ challenges Rotarians, in everything they do, to ask of themselves:

“Of the things we think say or do:

Is it the TRUTH?
Is it FAIR to all concerned?
Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?"
