Rotary is an organization of over 33,000 local clubs serving their communities around the world. Rotarians are leaders in their vocation, profession and community.
We meet weekly to discuss improving the lives of people, both locally and globally. We need and encourage diversity of membership in order to be more effective in this task.
The Rotary motto is “Service Above Self”.
The Phoenix Rotary 100 chapter was founded in 1914 as the 100th club to join Rotary. Through the years, Phoenix Rotary 100 has been at the forefront of community service in Phoenix and beyond, with a past and present membership list reading like a “Who’s Who” in Arizona’s history. Mayors, governors, U.S. senators and one Supreme Court Justice
have all been a part of Phoenix Rotary 100.

Upcoming Luncheon Programs
Join us for the Phoenix Rotary 100 Club Meeting on Friday, November 15th
Please join us at Seasons 52 on Friday, November 15th as we welcome guest speaker, Theodore Pappas.
According to the editor of Entrepreneur magazine, "Entrepreneurs see things that others miss . . and with his entrepreneurial approach to history, Theodore Pappas will help you see our country clearer, like wiping hair away from your eyes." Adds the Washington Post about our speaker today, "As a raconteur of American history, Theodore Pappas is always breezy and entertaining."
Ted Pappas has spoken to over 30 Rotary clubs, including ours a few years back, and he's here today to discuss his latest book, Combing Through the White House, which looks at the presidency through an unusual lens: through hair. He'll explain why we haven't had a president with whickers in more than a century, why three presidents wore hair rings on their fingers, and how hair -- that simple biological reality of life that we all can relate to -- has even affected presidential marriages and the domestic and foreign policies of our country.
Ted is a Harvard-trained historian, the author of five books, and the long-time Executive Editor of Encyclopaedia Britannica. He is also, since last speaking to our club, a resident of Scottsdale. Signed copies of his new book are available in the back, and he'll be happy to answer questions after his talk.
The meeting registration fee is $50 and includes lunch. Register by clicking the "Register NOW" button or by clicking here. Please register by 5pm on Monday, November 11th. If you miss the deadline and plan to attend, please email rotary@rotary100.org (please note, there is a $5 late fee). Any cancelations after this time are non-refundable.
We look forward to seeing you at the meeting!
