“If Rotary is to realize its proper destiny, it must be evolutionary at all times, revolutionary on occasions.”

Paul Harris 1930 message to the RI Convention

So many believe that 100 years allows time for sitting back and reflection. Not so in Rotary!

The Council on Legislation (COL) in 2001 and 2004 voted to continue a Rotary Pilot Project called the “New Models For Rotary Clubs (NMFRC PP).”

The 190 clubs participating in this pilot project are experimenting with new approaches towards membership, attendance, classification and meetings and will present their findings at the COL in Chicago in 2007 and will offer new enactments and resolutions to our Rotary Constitution.

Many of the resolutions and enactments presented to the COL by the New Models Program will be eye opening and the hope is that the representatives will heed our founder’s words.

“If Rotary is to realize its proper destiny, it must be evolutionary at all times, revolutionary on occasions.”
