Carroll Creek Rotary hosts 4-Way test competition

Charlie Nicodemus, with the help of Mike Boyd from the Gettysburg Rotary Club, hosted the Rotary Four Way Test competition speeches earlier this month. Each Rotarian was given a score sheet to rate the students in various categories.

All the students rendered exemplary speeches and the judging was extremely difficult. The Rotary 4-Way Test examines things based on the following four criteria: Is it the Truth? Is it Fair to all concerned? Will it build goodwill and better friendships? Will it be beneficial to all concerned?

The Rotary Club of Carroll Creek is a service organization of approximately 150 businesspersons and professionals based in Frederick, MD. For more info visit www.carrollcreekrotary.org
