e in our history. Now that we are taking our oaths of office means that Rotary is a vibrant as ever and is marching towards achieving its goals and preserving its long held tradition of service. It’s continuity is guaranteed by men us who have accepted the responsibility that the future of Rotary is in our hands. RI President John Kenny reminds us that we are part of a great Rotary tradition, as links in a chain joining our future to our past. If that chain is to continue, every link in it must be strong. Each one of us is standing on the shoulders of generations of Rotarians past, and it is our responsibility to determine Rotary’s future. It is our responsibility to strengthen and proclaim the core values of Rotary: Service, fellowship, diversity, integrity, and leadership.
We have long prepared ourselves for what lies ahead. But even as we, the Rotarians of District 3850, have constantly strived to serve our club and our community, our mission is always unfi
nished for as long as there are people who yearn for a better world. That is our reason for being, and we share this with 1.2 million Rotarians all over the world who thrive because they are needed and they can mean so much to the homeless, the sick and the hungry.Let’s enjoy Rotary together and propel this organization to greater heights.
