Rotary Basics
Here is the second installment of my "Educating New Members about Rotary." My goal is to do at least one story a month dedicated to educating members, new or not so new.
In case you didn't get a chance to catch the August issue of The Rotarian here is the link for Rotary Basics.

The 2007-08 edition of Rotary Basics, the annual guide to all things Rotary, is an eight-page publication that has been updated with new facts and figures for the Rotary year, and now boasts a more user-friendly look.
In addition to providing a crash course in Rotary history and demystifying RI terms, Rotary Basics is a thorough introduction to RI and Rotary Foundation programs and membership benefits and responsibilities.
Highly recommended for the newer member or as a refresher for those long standing members.
