Nine After Five
Rotary Club of Hamilton held its annual Fall Golf Classic on September 12th. This unique networking and nine-after-work golf tournament included food, beverages and prizes on every hole. A wonderful event included over $1000 in prizes courtesy of Eddie Bauer (Limeridge Mall). All the golfers had a great time eating, drinking and playing their way through 9 holes before enjoying a buffet dinner and silent auction. The fundraiser raised over $9500 to support local children’s charities and projects. Everyone is looking forward to the 2020 Rotary Fall Golf Classic!

The Four-Way Test
From the earliest days of the organization, Rotarians were concerned with promoting high ethical standards in their professional lives.
One of the world’s most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics is The 4-Way Test, which was created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor (who later served as Rotary International President) when he was asked to take charge of a company that was facing bankruptcy. This 24-word code of ethics for employees to follow in their business and professional lives became the guide for sales, production, advertising, and all relations with dealers and customers, and the survival of the company is credited to this simple philosophy.
Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The 4-Way Test has been translated into more than a hundred languages and published in thousands of ways.
