History of Magna Carta

Guy FoxThe doors of U.S. Supreme Court are decorated with eight panels depicting seminal moments in legal history. One of them shows a cross-looking King John in a face-off with a determined baron who is leaning threateningly on his sword.  Between them is a document onto which the king is pressing his seal.  This is a representation of the making of Magna Carta.  This year marks the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta.  We celebrate the anniversary with two videos, one that provides a history of Magna Carta and the second one explains how the U.S. laws are derived from Magna Carta.

Please let Carol or Brenda know if you can join them for these events. If you have never attended one, please do so! Seeing elementary children recite the Rotary 4 Way Test is unbelievably moving.
