as cultural ambassadors. Rotary also partners with seven prestigious universities around

 the world, providing opportunities to earn a master's degree in peace and conflict resolution.

 PolioPlus is Rotary's flagship program. By the time polio is eradicated, Rotary club members will have contributed US$850 million and countless volunteer hours to immunize more than two billion children in 122 countries.

Founded in Chicago in 1905 as the world's first volunteer service organization, Rotary quickly expanded around the globe. Today, club members meet weekly to plan service projects, discuss community and international issues, and enjoy fellowship. Clubs are nonpolitical and open to every race, culture, and creed.

Locally, The Rotary Clubs in Wilson County completed the 51st Habitat for Humanity house this year - this was accomplished through MANY volunteer hours. Although it was tough, HOT, hard work, it was also a great bonding experience between members, and a wonderful way to give back to the community;

Distributed Dictionaries to all third graders - we distribute to the schools in Wilson County, and those members that participate are always amazed at the experience;

and the Lebanon Rotary Club has sponsored Lebanon Rotary Baseball (Dixie Youth) for the Nine throughTwelve age groups .
