Rotary is an international civic service organization founded in 1905 and composed of business and professional leaders that meet weekly in their  local community to:

• Encourage professional fellowship,
• Provide humanitarian services,
• Encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and
• Promote international peace and goodwill.

The primary motto of Rotary is “Service Above Self”.

Our local Bolivar club was chartered in February 1938 and is now part of a larger network of 34,282+ worldwide Rotary clubs with over 1.2 million members in over 200 countries.

Rotarians meet weekly, usually over lunch or breakfast, to socialize, hear interesting presentations, and to organize our local and international service goals.  Each Rotarian is welcome to attend the weekly meeting of any other Rotary club -- affording opportunity to expand relations and service to other communities and countries. Membership in Rotary is by invitation (through your acquaintance with our existing members.) If you are interested in finding out more about Rotary, please review the links on this page, or contact our club leadership.
