1,200,000 members,  35,000 clubs worldwide; 197 countries in world
 
Rotary seems to have clubs in all but nine countries: Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Turkmenistan, Tuvalu, Marshall Islands, Uzbekistan, Yemen & Vatican
 
If we propose a toast to ONE Club each meeting say 45 meetings per year, that would take us around 777 .7 years.  Five clubs per meeting would only take us 155 years.  So instead, if the toast is proposed each week to one club from each country, that will only take us four+ years.
 
Having found out that it takes about two hours to locate a club and get details, no wonder Alan Still called it a da;, I may try to work our way through the alphabet by country.
 
But this just goes to show how massive Rotary International is, and we are part of it.
 
So tell your business associates, clients, friends, police officers, nurses just what sort of an organization we are part of.  And tell them of the wonderful things we do worldwide on which Mark will be educating us in his Rotary Today segment.
 
So today, toast the organization we are proudly a part of.
