Rotary Global History Day was created, by RGHF, to bring attention to the vital
role that history plays in preserving Rotary. RGHF preserves history to help
ensure the future growth of Rotary. Each month RGHF will select an example of
Rotary History, found on the internet. This month we feature North Penn,
District 7430<br>
<br>
FEATURED HISTORY<br>
<br>
The Rotary Club of North Penn’s major fundraiser is the annual outdoor
Lansdale Day celebration on <st1:Street w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">Main
Street</st1:address></st1:Street>, downtown <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City
w:st="on">Lansdale</st1:City>, <st1:State w:st="on">PA.</st1:State></st1:place>
The proceeds from this event are given to local charities in the North Penn
community. This old-fashioned community project has always been
successful, usually with an attendance in excess of 10,000. We have lots
of delectable food, great music, entertainment and fun activities in three
staging areas, a community market place, and an ANTIQUES & ARTS FESTIVAL -
a juried invitational showcase of fine artists, selected artisans and antique
dealers. <a

COMMENTARY<br>
<br>
This month we recognize a Rotary Global History that shows the importance
of creating the basics. There are clubs which have created extensive histories
including photos, charter members, past officers, and several pages of history.
However, it is vital to post something of your history. There should be 33,000
club histories and 532 district histories. Your history will prepare your
future and everyone can contribute. An understanding of the Global History of
Rotary will help all clubs to retain valued members. I personally believe that
all presidents elect should read at least one book by Paul Harris to learn how
all this began. <a href="http://www.whatpaulharriswrote.org/">www.whatpaulharriswrote.org</a><font
color=navy><span style='color:navy'> </span></font> contains virtually
everything he ever wrote or said. RGHF is a good 24/7 source for your club.<br>
<br>
Yours for Rotary Global History,<br>
