How Did Rotary Start?
The first Rotary club was organized in Chicago, Illinois by Paul Harris, an attorney. The first meeting was held on February 23, 1905. The name Rotary was chosen because the club met in rotation at each member’s place of business. The Rotary idea of friendship, fellowship, and service to others quickly spread to six continents.
