ROTARY MINUTE by John Steelquist WHERE ARE ROTARY CLUBS LOCATED? With 33,000 Rotary Clubs, there will be geographical extremes. Where clubs are the Northern most, Southern most, etc.? The Northern most Rotary Club is Rotary Club of Barrow-Nuvuk, Alaska. The Southern most Rotary Club is Rotary Club Punta Arenas, Chile. The Eastern most Rotary Club is Rotary Club Of Taveuni Island, Fiji. The Western most Rotary Club is Rotary Club of Nuku'alofa, Tonga. With new clubs forming in Russia, the northern most and western most clubs could change. The Fiji club is the most safe since it almost touches the 180 longitude. SPAGHETTI FUNDRAISER RECAP Thanks to the hard work and contributions by Rotarians and volunteers, the 2nd Annual Spaghetti Dinner Fundraiser held on August 17th at Dave & Busters was a big hit!
