The Rotary Club of Sun Lakes held its 12th annual Bill McCoach Rotary Four-Way Test Essay Competition. Chandler Unified School District (CUSD) high school students presented essays that applied to the principles of Rotary International’s Four-Way Test to current ethical issues with 4-7 minutes speeches.
The Four Way Test addresses: Is it the TRUTH?; Is it FAIR to all concerned?; Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?; and, Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?.
RCSL thanks its corporate members Earnhardt Auto Centers and Trust Bank for their sponsorship of this club education program.
