STRIVE on Thursda
y, March 14th was on Ethics and Values and presented by Excelsior Rotary’s own resident Chaplain Greg Hayek. Greg spoke about how he had become a Chaplain and his journey. He discussed with the students Rotary’s “Four Way Test” and how important this commitment is that Rotarian’s make weekly in their business and personal lives. Greg focused particularly on “Is it the Truth” and sited many examples of people in the news this week that were caught not telling the truth and how 
one lie leads to many other lies to cover the first lie. In discussion groups following Greg’s presentation the STRIVE students echoed how telling the truth may be tough in the first instance but it is a lot better than living a lie.
