As our logo suggests, our club is a small cog in the big wheel of a large, well-known, influential organization. As a Rotarian, it’s worth investing time in learning about the big picture — where we came from, how we’re organized, what we value. This page has useful links to guide you on that educational journey.
Start with the Basics
The length might be a bit intimidating, but this downloadable PDF document provides an outstanding overview of the important aspects of Rotary. It’s well-written and very skim-able.
After you’ve spent a little time with this document, you should be able to answer most of the questions in this quiz. Don’t worry, no one but you will see your answers, but you can pat yourself on the back if you do well.
