Avenues of Service
We channel our commitment to service at home
and abroad through five Avenues of Service,
which are the foundation of club activity.
Club Service focuses on making clubs
strong. A thriving club is anchored by strong
relationships and an active membership
development plan.
Vocational Service calls on every Rotarian
to work with integrity and contribute their
expertise to the problems and needs of society.
Learn more in An Introduction to Vocational
Service and the Code of Conduct.
Community Service encourages every
Rotarian to find ways to improve the quality
of life for people in their communities and to
serve the public interest. Learn more in Communities in Action: A Guide to
Effective Projects.
International Service exemplifies our global reach in promoting peace
and understanding. We support this service avenue by sponsoring or
volunteering on international projects, seeking partners abroad, and more.
Youth Service recognizes the importance of empowering youth and young
professionals through leadership development programs such as Rotaract,
Interact, Rotary Youth Leadership Awards, and Rotary Youth Exchange.

District Governor’s Message
Dear Rotarians of District 6820,
I am honored and privileged to serve as your District Governor for the year 2020-
21. And what a year it will be beginning in the middle of this COVID-19 pandemic!
We closed our previous year with our first-ever virtual international convention,
and this year begins with social distancing with our international office closed until
December 31, 2020. We will face challenges of a different world, but one that, with
our continued service to our fellow man, will be a better world.
In January, while attending the International Assembly required for governor training, the International
President-elect, Holger Knaack, revealed the 2020-21 theme – ROTARY OPENS OPPORTUNITIES.
During his address, he quoted a statement by Paul Harris, “Rotary must be revolutionary from time to
time.” This theme and the Paul Harris statement could never be more appropriate than now.
Rotary indeed opens doors of opportunity, and our motto of “service above self” can walk right through.
When we develop service projects, even very small ones that all our members can participate in, we not
only serve others but each other in fulfilling a feeling of membership and participation in the service.
When members are involved, they are active members and will attract more members.
But we MUST let the world know the good that our clubs do. I challenge you all to have several projects
often and with various members involved. We can all participate in a district-wide project. And then,
let’s publicize it! This will be how we attract new members and keep those we have. The doors of
opportunity are wide open, so let’s get everyone involved and let the world see what we can do!
We are compelled to be revolutionary now because of social media and meetings with “Zoom.” And it is
a challenge for us. But let us use this technology to our advantage. Be creative with projects. Involve
more people. And get the results on social media. Please use this directory to find those on this district
level that can assist you with technology as well as all other areas of Rotary life.
I want to encourage you to have fun being a Rotarian,
and during this epidemic, one of the best ways to have
fun is to participate in a Rotary community service
project.
I look forward to working with you to continue the
Rotary tradition in District 6820 and the world.
Yours in Rotary Service,
District Governor 2020-2021

PRESIDENT 2020-2021
ROTARY CLUB OF HERZOGTUM
LAUENBURG-MÖLLN, GERMANY
Dear fellow Rotarians:
Ask any Rotarian what led them to Rotary, and you’ll usually get different answers. Why?
Not only does Rotary mean different things to members in different parts of the World,
it also has a unique meaning for each Rotarian.
However, we are all brought together in three important ways. We believe in Rotary values
and all share the same Four Way Test. We believe in friendships and love spending time
together. And we take great satisfaction in helping others – we are committed to Service.
The District Board has assumed important responsibilities and I thank them for this hard
work. They have made a commitment to help grow Rotary, adapt to the digital future
and make Rotary more appealing to younger generations.
We have important work in front of us and so many opportunities to open for others and
ourselves.
I hope you will continue your journey with us, as we continue to serve our communities
so that future generations can thrive as Rotary Opens Opportunities.
Regards,
Holger Knaack

Paul P. Harris - The Founder of Rotary
Paul P. Harris (1868-1947) was the founder of Rotary, the world’s
first and most international service club. He was born in Racine,
Wisconsin, on April 19, 1868. Paul married Jean Thomson Harris
(1881-1963). They had no children. He received the bachelor of
physical culture and LL.B degrees from the University of Vermont
and the LL.D degree from the University of Iowa. He was awarded
an honorary Ph.D. from the University of Vermont in 1933.
Paul worked as a newspaper reporter, a business teacher, stock company actor, and a
cowboy. In 1896, he went to Chicago to practice law. In 1900 during an after-dinner stroll
with a professional friend in a residential Chicago neighborhood, Paul was impressed
by the fact that his friend stopped at several stores and shops in the neighborhood
and introduced him to various tradesmen in their stores. This reminded Paul of his
New England village and it occurred to him: “Why not have a fellowship composed of
businessmen from different occupations, without restriction of politics or religion?” He
resolved to organize a club that would band together a group of representative business
and professional men in friendship and fellowship.
In February 1905, Paul Harris formed the first club with three of his law clients - Silvester
Schiele, a coal merchant, Gustavus Loehr, a mining engineer, and Hiram Shorey, a
merchant tailor. Because the group’s meeting locations rotated from one member’s place
of business to the next, Harris christened his new club “Rotary.”
The second Rotary club was founded in San Francisco in 1908. In August 1910, when
there were 16 clubs, the National Association of Rotary Clubs was organized. By 1921,
the organization was represented on every continent, and in 1922, they adopted the
name Rotary International. Paul Harris’ dream, the Rotary Club, has continued to grow
and expand over the years. The burgeoning movement in Asia, and the over 220 clubs
in Eastern Europe, are extending Paul Harris’s ideals of friendship, community service,
education, and peace across the world.
