encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster: FIRST: The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service; SECOND: High ethical standards in business and professions, the recognition of the worthiness of all useful

occupations, and the dignifying of each Rotarian’s occupation as an opportunity to serve society; THIRD: The application of the

ideal of service in each Rotarian’s personal, business, and community life; FORTH: The advancement of internal understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons untied in the ideal of service.

April is Magazine Month

April is Magazine Month, a time to celebrate the global network of Rotary’s official magazines, which provide valuable information to 1.2 million Rotarians.

The Rotary World Magazine Press consists of 32 magazines from Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia, and Europe that inform, inspire, and entertain in 23 languages. In addition to The Rotarian, Rotary’s English-language flagship publication, it offers magazines such as Vida Rotaria (Argentina), Rotary in Bulgaria, and The Rotary-no-Tomo (Japan).

Established in 1911, The Rotarian is the official magazine of Rotary International and is circulated worldwide. Each issue contains feature

articles, columns, and departments about, or of interest to, Rotarians. Seventeen Nobel Prize winners and 19 Pulitzer Prize winners – from Mahatma Ghandi to Kurt Vonnegut Jr. – have written for the magazine.

The RI Bylaws require all club members to subscribe to The Rotarian or a Rotary regional magazine. Rotary leaders, district governors, and club presidents are encouraged to support magazine editors in their country or region by submitting story ideas, promoting readership, encouraging timely subscription payments, and assisting with other communication efforts.

Modern technology now affords Rotarians the opportunity to receive their

copy of The Rotarian digitally or through purchases made from the new Google Books site. You can also access back issues of the magazine - all the way back to 1910. http://books.google.com/books?id=vzQEAAAAMBAJ&dq=rotarian&source=gbs_all_issues_r&cad=2&atm_aiy=1910#all_issues_anchor

An online magazine called The Rotarian Magazine can be found on Facebook. It is a place where Rotarians can keep up on all the humanitarian news all over the world. http://www.facebook.com/therotarianmagazine Reading The Rotarian is not the only thing we can do. Clubs are encouraged to submit articles of merit for consideration. The process takes a while, but articles do get published.

Each Rotarian:

Reach One, Keep One

Pope Francis - Another First! From Quickbits - submitted by Larry Sundram

The media has reported that Pope Francis has a achieved a number of “firsts.”

1. The first Pope of the Americas

2. The first Jesuit Pope 3. The first born outside Europe

in 1, 277 years The news media did not report that there was another first. Pope Francis is the first Pope to have been named an honorary Rotarian! He

has been an honorary member of RC of Buenos Aires from 1999. In 2005, club members gave him the Silver Laurel award for “Person of

the Year.”

Our Family of Rotary

Let’s round up our families and share a day together celebrating each other and Rotary. A special day has been planned for us. Let’s commit to having a full-club showing! More information is below.

President’s Message Declaration of Rotarians

in Businesses and

Professions

As a Rotarian engaged in a business or profession, I will: 1. Exemplify the core value of

integrity in all behaviors and

activities.

2. Use my vocational experience and talents to serve Rotary.

3. Conduct all of my personal, business, and professional affairs ethically, encouraging

and fostering high ethical standards as an example to others.

4. Be fair in all dealings with others and treat them with the respect due to them as fellow human beings.

5. Promote recognition and respect for all occupations which are useful to society.

6. Offer my vocational talents:

to provide opportunities for young people, to work for the relief of the special needs of others, and to improve the quality of life in my community.

7. Honor the trust that Rotary and fellow Rotarians provide and not do anything that will bring disfavor or reflect adversely on Rotary or fellow Rotarians.

8. Not seek from a fellow Rotarian a privilege or advantage not normally accorded others in a business or professional relationship.

POLIO NEAR EXTINCTION

This Close

On July 13, 2013, the Santee-Lakeside Rotary Club will present its 4th Annual Concert at the Lakes, our signature fundraising event of the year. Event Chair, Emily Andrade, has set a goal of raising $15,000 net, a 20% increase over last year's successful event. I think this is a very realistic

goal, particularly in view of the fact that we will, for the first time, emphasize corporate and individual sponsorships of the event. The sole purpose and use of the proceeds of this event will be the Club's Scholarship Program, now in its 23rd year. Our event partner will again be the Santee Lakes Foundation who will share in the net proceeds on a prorated basis. In future years, we hope to have other event partners join us as well.

Please put on your thinking caps for a brainstorming session we will hold shortly, to identify prospective corporate and individual sponsors for this outstanding and worthy event. The brainstorming will be done by email, so all members will be able to see the input and ideas as they roll out. We need your input! Sponsorships are potentially a large source of

funding for our scholarship program, and therefore deserve our thought and attention. If our cause is worthy, and we know it is, then our job is to convince corporate leaders and community leaders to support it with their tax deductible contributions. Each of us will have several roles to play to make Concert at the Lakes IV

truly successful. Finding sponsors, selling tickets, getting silent auction items and working the event are a few of the roles we will play. We already have a great start: Several Committee meetings have been held; the entertainment has been selected; Phil's BBQ is on board; the event web site is ready for unveiling, our location at Santee Lakes is reserved, etc. etc.

So, my charge to each of you is to do your part to make this another successful Concert event. Our future scholars are depending on it! Thank you in advance for your efforts.

A great tool Rotary has is its educational programs. It also can give you exposure to many different areas and help you find what your interests really are.

It’s time to rally teams for Santee-Lakeside Rotary Club’s 2nd Annual Softball Tournament to be held at SportsPlex USA in Santee on May 4. We are slated to be able to handle sixteen teams this year.

Now is the time to get the word out and encourage players. This is a co-ed and men’s bracket-style softball tournament. Our any thanks go to Rotarian, Bill Pommering and SportsPlex USA general manager, Eddie Vandiver for setting this in motion. This event will help raise club funds to support community charity projects, including Wounded Warriors and the Santee Food Bank. We will need registration volunteers for the day of the event!
