Fellowship

Fellowship has a special meaning for a Rotarian.   More than anything it is a camaraderie with a quality and strength like no other.  Some say it has "magic".

 

One of our regular fellowship activities is the Fifth Tuesday Social.  This event occurs during months that have five Tuesdays, and it is held in place of the regular lunch meeting that week.       

Spouses of members and guests are welcomed.  Times and locations will be announced.   

Please join us and spend some time getting better acquainted with your fellow Rotarians.

Reach Within to Embrace Humanity ~ RI Theme 2011-12

RI-2011-12-Theme RI President-elect Kalyan Banerjee will ask Rotarians to Reach Within to Embrace Humanity during the 2011-12 Rotary year.  Banerjee unveiled the RI theme during the opening plenary session of the 2011 International Assembly, a training event for incoming district governors.  He urged participants to harness their inner resolve and strength to achieve success in Rotary.

"In order to achieve anything in this world, a person has to use all the resources he can draw on. And the only place to start is with ourselves and within ourselves," Banerjee said.

Once Rotarians find their inner strength, he continued, they can accomplish great things in their communities and around the world.

"Discover yourself, develop the strengths within you, and then unhesitatingly, unflinchingly, go forth and encircle the world, to embrace humanity," he said.
