Get Involved
Become
more than a member of your Rotary club, become a
Rotarian. Get involved in your club, your
community and your world through the
opportunities offered by your Rotary club and
Rotary International.
Long-time Rotarians agree that involvement is
the key. Volunteer to serve on a committee that
meets your interests, as a greeter for weekly
meetings, and as part of a service project
team. These activities will help you get to know
your fellow club members and understand what
Rotary does.
Your district also offers opportunities for you
to get involved. Attend your district's
conference to learn more about Rotary and
celebrate the good works of your district. Host
the visiting Group Study Exchange team or help
organize your district's Rotary Youth Leadership
Awards program to see what clubs working
together can do. These activities will help you
meet Rotarians outside of your club, widening
your circle of friends and expanding your
service potential. Rotary International can help
you get involved on a global level. Attend RI's
annual convention to meet with Rotarians from
around the world and get ideas for club
activities and service projects. Join a Rotary
Fellowship to network with Rotarians who share
your vocation or interest. Rotary transcends
national boarders. By participating in
international activities, you are part of a
global network of professionals seeking world
peace and understanding. RI offers the following
opportunities for you to get involved:
Rotary Fellowships
Join the growing number of Rotarians who are
sharing their favorite activities and
professional interests through organized
recreational, vocational, and
health/medical-related groups within Rotary.
Rotary Volunteers
The Rotary Volunteers program is the embodiment
of Rotary's motto Service Above Self. The
program encourages Rotarians to become actively
involved in hands-on projects in which their
vocational skills are put to use.
2007 Convention
The 97th annual RI Convention will take place
11–14 June 2006 in Malmö, Sweden and Copenhagen,
