The Four - Way TestOf the things we think, say, or do:

* Is it the TRUTH?

*Is it FAIR to all concerned?

*Will it build GOODWILL and

BETTER FRIENDSHIP?

*Will it the BENEFICIAL to all

concerned?

It has been the way of Rotary to focus thought upon matters in which

members are in agreement, rather than upon matters in which they are in disagreement.

EditorialI am pleased to place before you this 12th and Final Issue of Monthly Bulletin of our club. I

tried sufficiently to make the bulletin readable and interesting. It was due to the support rendered to

me by you all Rotarians by inspiring me by contributing the articles and in other ways. Always I had

given the preference for the articles of Rotarians, Annes and Annettes. In between there came a

request from Rotaract club of Ponda to publish their monthly reports as they don’t have any bulletin

publication. With due consent of the President the same was accommodated to a page every month.

Here I take opportunity to acknowledge with thanks the contributions made by Rtn Leena

Verekar, Ann Leena Sadekar, Annette Sailee Talaulikar, Rtn Akshay Khandeparkar, Rtn Dr Baban

Kakodkar ,Innerwheel President Ann Sheetal Rathi, Innerwheel member Anne Shushma Tilve

Rotaract President Rtr. Gautami Naik and others. Also I cannot forget to acknowledge our own

Rotarians and all the Rotarians from our District 3170 and other districts too who contributed by way

of appreciations to the inbox every month.

I wish to make a special mention of Rtn Arun Salkar who helped me a lot to publish and

dispatch of Bulletins on line on the Rotary District facebook pages and websites. Our Bulletine has

covered this time a far distance on the earth.

The Month of June is designated in the Rotary Calendar as Rotary Fellowship Month.

Fellowship is the basic Foundation of a Rotary Club. With fellowship in place, the SERVICE

follows. We all enjoyed the spirit of togetherness at Rotary Families this year by way of unique

family functions, various festival celebrations, picnics , moonlight walks, beach walks , under the

dynamic leadership of President Venkatesh. That leads to warmth and energy in the club.

I extend my sincere gratitudes to all concerned who helped me in timely bringing out the

issues of FARMAGUDI. I cannot forget the Printer and Designer M/s PRABHU IMAGE & Mr

Ajay Mali who always lended me a helping hand.

As I conclude I keep my strong wishes to the incoming editor for the year 2014-15 Rtn

Nagesh Shirwant to evolve as a good editor under the Hi-Fi dashing leadership of Incoming

President Rtn Dr. Rajiv Usgaoncar.

Thank You.

RI President’s

Message

We have a saying in Oklahoma that you need to leave the woodpile just a little higher than you found it. To do that, I needed to ask you to get involved. Involvement is what our theme this year – Engage Rotary, Change Lives – is all about. And, as each of us has done that – as each of us has gotten up out of our chairs and truly engaged Rotary – we have changed lives.

This year, I asked each one of you to bring in one new member. The Board has laid a foundation for strengthening membership around the globe: Sixteen regional membership plans are now in place. They are built around making sure that we give people a reason to be in Rotary. I believe that if we can get prospective members to help us with a project – it could be reading to kids, or working in a soup kitchen, or picking up trash along the highway – the rest will take care of itself. They will realize that they made a difference in someone's life. And they'll also realize that when you give through Rotary service, you get so much more in return.

I also asked each one of you to make a gift of some amount to our Rotary Foundation. All of our governors did that and became the first class in the history of Rotary to make that commitment.

Sometimes we get comfortable in going to our club and not having any responsibility. Maybe it's because we haven't been asked to be more engaged. And, of course, it's great to go to your meeting and see your friends. But if you want to get fired up, you need to be doing projects. Hands-on projects are great equalizers. When you're unloading boxes off a truck, you're just like the next person, and that person is just like you. When everyone's serving together, there's a camaraderie, and that's how you keep people engaged.

Rotarians sometimes don't realize all that Rotary is doing and is capable of doing. If they could witness the impact of the projects I have seen this year, it would change their lives. They would understand that they belong to an organization whose members have a common desire to do something good and who, working together, accomplish incredible things.

I continue to be in awe of the good I see Rotarians doing. I am firmly convinced that the woodpile is just a little higher because of your efforts. It is my hope that each one of you will continue to Engage Rotary, Change Lives.

Our Past President Rtn. L.D.Naik also won six awards for the year 2013-14. I congratulate him on his success.Last month we had Guest Speaker Shri Dattesh Parulekar, he spoke on India’s Relation with Neighbours in the new Scenario. All the members had very good interaction with Guest speaker.

Our club is very Proud and Priviledged to congratulate our member Rtn. Narendra Savoikar being elected M.P for South Goa Constituency. Our club is priviledged and fortunate to have one M.L.A. and one M.P. as our member.

This is our this year’s last Bulletin. Thank you all Rotarians for all that you do good to Rotary and World . This year will come soon come to an end but ever flowing service activities of Rotary will continue so keepbringing peace and harmony through service above self and change the lives engaging Rotary.

So my dear friends beyond love and compassion there exists a more warm expression-respect showing respect towards peoples of all races, religions, beliefs is the best way you can offer and receive in return.. Soplease give what you ultimately want to come back to you.

It was a great year and I thank all of you for your support and co-operation. Thank you very much and God Bless You All.

RI President-elect Gary C.K. Huang chose Light Up Rotary as his theme for 2014-15. Huang was inspired by the teachings of Chinese philosopher Confucius who said: "It is better to light a single candle, than to sit and curse the darkness."

"There are so many problems in the world, so many people who need help. Many people say, 'There's nothing I can do.' So they sit there doing nothing. Meanwhile everything stays dark," Huang told the 537 district governors and their spouses and partners who are attending the 2014 International Assembly in San Diego, California.

"The Rotary way is the Confucius way. The Rotary way is to light a candle. I light one, you light one, 1.2 million Rotarians light one. Together, we light up the world," said Huang, who is a member of the Rotary Club of Taipei in Taiwan.

After announcing his theme at the opening session of the five-day training meeting, Huang urged club members to Light Up Rotary in the coming year by hosting a Rotary Day in their community and including local Rotaract and Interact members in their service projects.

"How you Light Up Rotary is up to you," Huang said. "You know where you are strong, you know what your community needs, and you know how you can help."

Huang also shared his membership development goals, including the need for more women and young adults and his goal to increase membership to a total of 1.3 million members. He asked Rotarians to invite their spouses, family members, and friends to join Rotary.

"We need to assume leadership for building strong clubs, and that starts with bringing in new members," he said.

Addressing the status of the fight against polio, Huang noted that with the current momentum Rotary is on track to achieve full polio eradication by 2018.

"When we eradicate polio — and we will — we will have proved ourselves an organization capable of great things. And we'll be even better equipped for the next challenge we choose to take on. We'll have given the world a gift that will endure forever," he said.

By continuing to fight against polio, setting an example in local communities, and growing membership, Huang hopes to see Rotary shine brighter than ever.

“Light Up Rotary is our theme, but it is more than our theme. It is how we live in Rotary, how we think in Rotary, how we feel, how we work," Huang said. "It is how we make a difference — every day, in every club, every district, and every country where we serve."
