DO YOU WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN OUR COMMUNITY AND THE WORLD?
We’re a leadership organization of local business, professional and civic leaders. We meet regularly, get to know each other, form friendships, and through that, we’re able to get things done in this community. Membership in Rotary immediately connects you with a broad range of professions and professionals in our Club. We encourage our members to do business with each other because we trust the members in Rotary. Service is what Rotarians do. We change the lives of others in need. Your membership gives you the opportunity, structure, know-how and resources to provide service to others. The benefit one gets helping someone else is extraordinary and life affecting. Rotary empowers our membership to dream large in addressing needs in local and international communities. There is no other organization that has the structure, the network, and the resources that are available to its membership. Individual members create our projects, from our Rotary Children’s Christmas program, to our efforts to aid our sister city in Cherkasy, Ukraine, our members determine our action.
Please consider attending our meetings, meeting our members, and joining our Rotary Family.
Yours in Rotary Service,
Julia Parranto
