The Rotary Club of Murray, founded in 1923, joins clubs in 22 countries celebrating the first meeting of any Rotary club, which occurred in Chicago on February 23, 1905.
In alignment with the international organization’s efforts to foster global goodwill and understanding, it is no surprise that February 23rd has also been established as World Understanding and Peace Day.
reetings and welcome to the Rotary Club of Murray website. The hope is that current club members, former members, prospective members and others just curious about Rotary will find exploration of the site informative and interesting.
We are one of some 32,000 Rotary clubs in more than 200 countries. What we have in common with those clubs is the motto of “Service Above Self”.
While embracing the notion and value of fun and fellowship, we seek to address global as well as local challenges such as disease, hunger, poverty, and environmental concerns. World-wide, Rotarians encourage and aspire to high ethical standards in all vocations.
