Olive, Fig and Rosemary: the Essence of Rotary
In the spirit of the motto for the new Rotary year, Be a Gift to the World, incoming president,
executive chef Ainstie, made an olive fig and rosemary paste, giving jars of it as gifts
to everyone at the changeover dinner, with the following comments:
‘To be a gift to the world is something we can all do, locally and inter nationally,
the achievements may be big or small but we all work to the same goal.’
‘[The Olive, Fig and Rosemary paste] is a my interpretation of this year’s theme:
The Olive signifies the essential good of charity and generosity. Olive oil is
seen as the very essence of the tree. To me a local rotary club is like the olive
oil, it is the very essence of what makes up Rotary International.
The Figs show that we DO give a fig about our community and what happens in
the rest of the world. We DO give a fig about giving and caring and about fellowship within the Rotary Community.
And lastly the Rosemary. An emblem of remembrance. It is about remembering
what it means to be a Rotarian:
That is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a base for worthy enterprise.
To maintain high ethical standards in our business, professional and personnel life.
And to remember above all that Rotarians believe in "service above self "
