Doors open at 4:30 and full course Italian Spaghetti dinners will be served until 7:30 pm including cake and ice cream deserts served by High School and Community College students from Rotaract and Interact. Rotary Nashua West has proudly produced Spaghetti City for 45 years and it’s become a perennial favorite to many Nashua area residents.

With their downtown location and large parking lot, we can hold this fun event for all. Dinner guests are invited to help select the winner of the People's Choice Award for best spaghetti sauce. Local Rotary Clubs submit their own special sauce to be judged by the Spaghetti City guests. At the end of the evening, the highly coveted Paisano Cup is presented to the Rotary Club with the winning sauce. That club has "bragging rights" as the best of Sauce from Spaghetti City for the whole year. |

Over the past several years, Clubs in our District have really been getting a lot of Foundation funding for their clubs' projects. District Grants have provided over $20,000 per year to help fund club projects, and Global Grants have provided $150,000 per year. If your Club has been one getting this funding, come celebrate! If not, come learn how the other Clubs have benefited and how your Club can get on the Bandwagon!
Two Foundation Dinners will be held to celebrate ways our Foundation has enriched our Clubs and "Done Good in the World." Each is an opportunity for Rotarians to learn about our Foundation in General and how our Clubs have used it in particular. Each includes a social hour, a buffet dinner and an informative program about our Foundation and its benefits to our Clubs and Rotarians.
Please come and encourage your Club Members to do so as well.
Regards, Rick |

The 4 Way Speech Contest will be held on Thursday, March 19, 2020 at 6:00 p.m. at the Boys and Girls Club of Nashua. We would love to have as many Rotarians as possible participate in this program as an official or simply to eat snacks and support the students who participate. If you have a young person in your life who may want to some day participate we would encourage you to bring them along to the contest. If you would like to be a volunteer, please email Helen. Also, if you know any high school students in Nashua who you think might be interested in participating, please have them complete the registration form listed on the left. The Four Way Test speech contest is a competition for 9-12 graders. It requires each participating student to create and present a speech on a subject of their choice, applying the 4-Way Test to guide their thinking and their actions. History of the 4-Way Test From the earliest days of Rotary, Rotarians have been concerned with promoting high ethical standards in their professional lives. One of the world's most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics is The 4-Way Test, which was created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor (who later served as Rotary International's president) when he was asked to take charge of a company that was facing bankruptcy. This 24-word test for employees to use in making decisions in their business and professional lives became the guide for sales, production, advertising, and all relations with suppliers and customers. The survival of the company is credited to this simple philosophy. Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The 4-Way Test has been translated into more than a hundred languages and published in thousands of ways.
