Chartered 1914

The club's own history: The service clubs stand in this section at the depth of their own published records. The Rotary Club of South Bend's own history page gives its place in the order's Indiana sequence: chartered in 1914, the fourth Rotary club chartered in Indiana, with fourteen charter members. The club meets on Wednesdays at Century Center. Its strength is printed only as the club prints it: its current telling says "nearly 200" members; an older listing, of about 2013, gives about 230 — the two figures stand with their dates, and neither is carried as the other's correction.
