   Sponsored by Harry J. Harding of Lynn, the Rotary Club of Chelsea was organized November  29, 1927, at the Y.M.C.A. Hall.

   A committee consisting of Edward J. Voke, Chairman; John Trickey, Howard Walker and Dr. John M. Doran, brought in a list of Charter Members.

   Our Charter number is 2755 and was presented to the club by District Governor Charles H. Simons on

March 27, 1928.

   A Rotary Club is an organization of men and women engaged in their particular community in some business or profession, who accept the moral principle of service to humanity as an essential to human happiness, and are determined as far as the frailty of their human nature will permit, to practice that principle in their domestic, business and social lives, and to endeavor especially  by example to influence other persons throughout in the belief that such acceptance and practice will lead to world peace and universal human happiness.
