The Object of Rotary was first formulated in 1910 and adapted through the years as Rotary's mission expanded. It provides a succinct definition of the organization's purpose as well as the club member's responsibilities.

Rotary is dedicated to seven areas of focus to build international relationships, improve lives, and create a better world to support our peace efforts and end polio forever. Read this page and the connected pages to see how we go about this.

One of our objectives is to make a difference in our local community. Here are some of the things we are doing and have done in the past to fulfil this objective.

Rotarians believe in the advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service. See this page for how we have put this into practice.
