The Streator Rotary was a longstanding tournament in Streator, Illinois sponsored by the Rotary Club. For over fifty years the tournament was one of the hallmark tournaments in Illinois quiz bowl predating Illinois Scholastic Bowl, starting in 1964 as the “Senior Challenge”. Up until near the tournament's cancellation in 2013, the Rotary attracted some of the strongest teams from across the State notably including both Chicagoland & downstate teams.
Other Illinois Rotary Clubs began sponsoring their own scholastic bowl tournaments, including Galesburg (1989) & Macomb (1999).
