About The Rotarian

The Rotarian addresses the personal and business interests of a selected audience involved in business or one of the professions. The chief purpose of The Rotarian is to report Rotary news and general subjects directed to the interests, loyalty, and involvement of its member audience. General articles cover such topics as business, travel, health, education, environment, management and ethics, sciences, sports and adventure.

Rotary's Four Avenues of Service are stressed:

  • Club Service focuses on strengthening fellowship and ensuring the effective functioning of the club.
  • Vocational Service encourages Rotarians to serve others through their vocations and to practice high ethical standards.
  • Community Service covers the projects and activities the club undertakes to improve life in its community.
  • International Service encompasses actions taken to expand Rotary's humanitarian reach around the globe and to promote world understanding and peace.

 Spotlight On Service...Camp Enterprise

Camp Enterprise is an executive styled, four-day retreat where qualified high school juniors explore the fundamental challenges, opportunities and obligations of the free enterprise system. Established in 1976, this unique camp was originally developed with the help of the American Management Association (AMA) and the Rotary Club of Tulsa using tools available from Junior Achievement.

The camp provides a select group of 100 high school juniors (recruited from over 45 NE Oklahoma schools) the opportunity to learn team building (ROPES), leadership and motivation skills, all while working within a real business simulation program. Campers will meet and interact with some of Tulsa's top business leaders and work with international students (Rotary Youth Exchange) assigned to their team. It is a global experience about what makes America's free enterprise system work. Camp Enterprise 2010 will be held at Camp Heart O' Hills in Tahlequah, OK on April 8th - 11th, 2010.   

Four Ways and More . . .

Rotary's Four-Way Test exemplifies an open-hearted, compassionate spirit. Here are a few other tips to keep in mind:

Be Generous. Do more than your share, and volunteer in your community.

Be Expressive. Smile at others, and show your appreciation for them.

Be Responsive. Promptly answer messages, and send thank-you notes.

Be Inclusive. Invite that newcomer to lunch, and draw in the shy person.

Be Considerate. Arrive on time, and let people talk without interrupting them.
