The Florence Exchange Club
is the oldest civic club in the city of Florence. It was organized in
December, 1920 by a group of local business and professional people.
The club was founded just 10 years after the first Exchange Club was
formed in Detroit, Michigan.
The Exchange Club Covenant of Service
Accepting the divine privilege of single and collective responsibility
as life's noblest gift, I covenant with my fellow Exchangeites:
To consecrate my best energies to the uplifting of Social, Religious,
Political and Business ideals;
To discharge the debt i owe to those
of high and low estate who have served and sacrificed the heritage
of American citizenship might be mine;
To honor and respect law, to serve my fellow man and to uphold the ideals
and institutions of my country;
To implant life-giving, social-building
spirit of Service and Comradeship in my social and business relationships;
To serve in Unity with those seeking
better conditions, better understanding and greater opportunities for
all.
