The Rotary Theme for
2010 - 2011
"Rotary has both a distinguished heritage and a bright future. My primary task as president is to enhance the vitality and viability of Rotary clubs and to enable them to succeed in the midst of societal changes. This is an important task because it is the clubs that address and alleviate the root problems of society and thereby make the world a better place. "

The Rotary Club of Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada is one of over 32,000 Rotary clubs in 168 countries around the world. Over 1.2 million business and professional men and women constitute the membership of clubs such as ours, and all share the purposes of providing humanitarian service, encouraging high ethical standards in all vocations, and building good will and peace in the world.
The Sackville Club was founded in April 1931 under the leadership of its first president Dr. Norman A. Hesler. The club received its charter on 2 June 1931, and in the seventy five plus years since then has chalked up an impressive record of service both to the local community and to the wider world.
The History of the Rotary movement dates back to 1905 when a Chicago lawyer, Paul Harris, founded the first club.
