Programs
Rotary clubs traditionally operate many different programs to benefit the community, and we are proud to do our part. Some of these programs we run in co-operation with other Rotary Clubs, elsewhere in District 7040 or further abroad. Others are operated at the District or International levels with input from local Rotary clubs.
A brief description of the Eganville club's participation in a few of the many programs run by Rotarians can be found below. For further information on Rotary programmes and the Rotary Club of Eganville, beyond what you see below, please contact club president George Vigus .
The four-way test
of all things we think, say or do:
1. Is it the TRUTH?
2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?
3. Will it build GOODWILL and
BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
