The Rotary Club's motto is "Service Above Self". The Rotary Club of North Bay instills this philosophy of unselfish volunteer service in both its members and the community at large through the implementation and promotion of various projects.

The Club wants to ensure the youth of North Bay become aware of the benefits of volunteerism. Although we promote youth leadership through International Youth exchanges, we have not specifically promoted the values inherent in our motto with the youth of North Bay.

As part of our promotion of volunteerism, we will once again be honouring a grade ten or eleven student from each secondary school in North Bay that best exemplifies "Service Above Self".

The FIRST Team 1305, Near North Student Robotics Initiative (NNSRI), Ice Cubed, a competitive student robotics team from North Bay, will be speaking at the noon meeting.

The team competes with FIRST (For Inspiration of Science and Technology), a robotics competition dedicated to promoting science and technology to youth. The Team's mission is to provide real world leadership, scientific, entrepreneurial and technological challenges for our students.
