Rotary International, Newtown Chapter -The main objective of a Rotary club is service -- in the community, in the workplace, and throughout the world. Club service involves all of the activities necessary for Rotarians to make their club function successfully. Vocational service is the opportunity to represent the dignity and utility of one's own vocation to other members of the club. Community service pertains to those activities to improve the quality of life in their community. International service describes activities which Rotarians undertake to advance international understanding, goodwill and peace.
