pact: Holy Spirit SMILES, Holy S

Birthday of Sports Comm Chair David Kim

Safe arrival of RCHS Treasurer Peth and DGE Francis

Rivera from RI International Assembly in San Diego

Club performance during the first half of RY 2012-13

Day/Date/Time:

Venue:

I am a Japanese

businessman, and

I wear a suit al-

most every day.

The Rotary pin is

always on my la-

pel. It is there because I am proud

to be a Rotarian. Anywhere I go,

people will see the pin and knowwho I am. Other Rotarians will see

t and know that I am a friend, and

people who are not Rotarians will

see it as well. I want to be sure that

all of them also understand the

meaning of this pin.

This is why I am asking all of you to

wear your Rotary pin and to raise

awareness of what the pin means. I

believe having that pin on your la-pel changes you. It makes you

think more before you speak andbefore you act. It makes you re-

member, all the time, that you are

a Rotarian and that as Rotarians,

we are here to help.

All of us should be ready to talk

about Rotary. When someone asks

you about that pin, you should be

ready to answer them. What is Ro-

tary? What does Rotary do? These

are questions that each of usshould always be prepared to an-

swer.

We cannot go to prospective mem-

bers and ask them to join Rotary

only because we want more mem-

bers. We have to show them that

Rotary is a wonderful organization,

and that they will be happier be-

cause they belong to a Rotary club.

When we ask people to join Rotary,

we are doing this to help them as

well. I think all of us are gratefulthe person who asked us to join

know that my life is much happi

and has been much more prod

tive, because of Rotary. It is cle

to me that the day I joined the R

tary Club of Yashio was a day wh

I took my first step down a differe

path in life a path of greater co

nection, greater satisfaction, and

deeper sense of fulfillment a

peace.

This is a feeling that I want to sha

with others. And I know that o

way to do that is through bring

in new members. But we must a

do it by raising awareness of Rota

and Rotarys work, by focusing

our public image and wearing o

Rotary pins every day.
