 | | History Day at RGHF, honoring the First 100 Clubs of Rotary |
|
William T. Waterman called the Rotary Club of Davenport Iowa together for the first time on November 11, 1911. Twenty-eight members met at the Davenport Hotel after being invited by the two men behind this idea. William Waterman and William H. (Bill) Harrison had discussed the idea of such a club after Harrison had visited the club in Des Moines. Later, they met with Founder Paul Harris in Chicago and picked up more enthusiasm for their efforts. In February 1912, the club was chartered with 58 charter members by the National Association of Rotary Clubs, now Rotary International. MORE... |

WHY I AM A ROTARIAN

RGHF member Fred Doctor |
I am a Rotarian because in 1968 a friend of mine, David M. Sablan, invited me to be a charter member of the Rotary Club of Saipan in the Northern Mariana Islands. With the exception of David, all the charter members were rookie Rotarians, so at the first few meetings of the provisional Club, it was inculcated upon us that joining Rotary would open opportunities for new friends and fellowship, and opportunities to touch the lives of thousands of people from various parts of the world.
