By now, most of you will already be aware that the theme for the year 2005-2006 is one you are (or should be!) very familiar with - SERVICE ABOVE SELF.  This was chosen by our President of Rotary international, Carl-Wilhelm Stenhammer, after he had thought long and hard about the many Presidential Themes handed down over the years.  Like many of us "foot soldiers" he rapidly came to the conclusion the most inspirational message that has guided our thinking and motivated us into action is the one that has always defined Rotary and the Rotary ethos - our motto - SERVICE ABOVE SELF! I hope you agree with me that this is the perfect theme to launch the Second Century of Success!
