President DAN introduced RI President Devlyn who made an interesting presentation regarding various aspects of Rotary, i.e., (1) Why do individuals become Rotarians - prestige,
networking, fellowship, see value of Four-way Test, etc.; (2) Why do they stay in Rotary - approval and support, service and caring for communities, special projects, thinking about and finding out
ways to help communities in far away places, etc.; (3) Rotarians acquire a better understanding of the world through Youth Exchange, Ambassadorial Scholars,
Group Study Exchange, and other programs of Rotary; (4) His main thrust will be promoting Rotary membership with recognition pins for Rotarians who excel in
recruitment of members; and (5) New emphasis in areas of concern, i.e., world population, literacy for the girl child, promotion of village banking, urban bias, people
with disabilities, etc. RI President Devlyn closed by stressing that the secret is Rotary's partnering with other agencies locally, statewide, nationally, and
internationally. RI President Devlyn was presented a "Distinguished Citizen Award" by each Mayor DAVID HEATH and Mayor SONYA MARGERUM.
