August is known as “Membership Month” in Rotary clubs around the world.  Rotary clubs are known for the high-impact service projects they undertake locally and globally.  Rotary members have pushed polio to the brink of eradication, delivered clean water to those in need, improved their local communities, provided scholarships to the next generation of peacemakers, and continued to do good in the world.  There are many opportunities to serve, and some members discover a true passion for specific projects.  There is much diversity in Rotary and we want to help each member plug into a project or committee of their choosing to discover a comfortable path to being engaged in our club.  When you feel that your membership is rewarding and that you benefit from leadership development, serving others, inspiring others, and supporting projects with sweat equity or dollars that really do change lives, then you are part of something that you want to share with others.  Let’s grown our team of Rotarians and invite others to share our focus on “Service Above Self” and “Be the Inspiration.”
 
Yours in Rotary,
 
Robin Charlesworth, President 2018-2019
