Objective

The Object of Rotary [1] is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise. The "ideal of service" is fostered through:

  • The development of acquaintance as the opportunity for service.
  • The promotion of high ethical standards in business and professions.
  • Service in one's personal, business, and community life.
  • The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace.

The San Carlos Club attempts to meet these ideals of service by applying local resources along with the resources of many Rotary Clubs throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico to:

  • The education of Mexican children.
  • The care of elderly Mexicans without family support.
  • The promotion of the cultural development of Mexican youth.

Hot Items
Rescate Bazaar
The Rotary Club will again be selling hamburgers at the annual Rescate Bazaar on Saturday, 20 February 2010. This year's bazaar will be held at the strip mall next to Champs. Come out and support the local Rescate and enjoy a quality Rotary Burger for only 40 pesos.

Tour of Homes
This year's Tour of Homes was held on Tuesday, 9 February 2010. This is the major fund raiser for the club and is the primary source for funding the club's Scholarship program. Initial results indicate that this year's tour was a success and exceeded last year's performance.  This should allow the club to continue the scholarship progam at the current level of scholarship holders.  Thank you for supporting and encouraging the continuing education of Mexican children in our community.

Carne Asada
Carne Asada will be on the 13th of March at the elementary school in the Ranchitos. It will begin at 11AM and will cost $120 pesos and includes the meal and entertainment . This is a fund raiser for the PTA of the elementary school and the kindergarden in the Ranchitos. See the associated link below for more .

Spouse's Night
Spouses night will be held on 23 February at the Bellas Artes in Guaymas. There is no need to drive because round trip bus transportation will be available from the Country Club parking lot at 5 PM. The cost is $200 pesos that includes transportation, open bar (except beer), entertainment, and the meal which is chicken cordon bleu.  You are encouraged to invite and bring along friends but we will need a solid head count soon.  Contact Bernie Parten, Dixie Gleason, or Dick Yackley for more info and reservations.
