"In giving, you receive"
-- If you believe this, Rotary might be a good fit for you. How to Learn More Being a Rotarian is about friendship, commitment to integrity and service. We welcome all interested in learning more about Rotary to join us at one of our weekly lunch meetings. Please contact our Membership Chair to arrange a lunch date or with questions regarding membership. You might also want to visit the Rotary District 5950 website serving clubs in the Western Minneapolis suburbs and Central Minnesota. What Will You Get Out of Rotary? Being a Rotarian creates fellowship with like minded business and professional leaders from our community. While the primary reason to be a Rotarian is a commitment to service, the relationships created benefit all Rotarians in many ways. Commitment to Integrity - (4 Way Test) Rotarians live by this simple but important model: 1. Is it the TRUTH? 2. Is it FAIR to All Concerned? 3. Will it Build GOODWILL and Better Friendships? 4.Will it Be BENEFICIAL to All Concerned? Cost Commitment Dues: Dues are $340 per year, invoiced quarterly Meeting Costs: Lunch is $18 per meeting. There is also a soup and salad option, and a no lunch option, for a reduced cost. Donations & Other Rotary Related Costs: - The Rotary Foundation; ($100 and up annually) - Fundraiser Support: (Two primary fundraisers per year) - Rotary Club of St. Louis Park Foundation: (Memorial gifts and support based on members preference) Time Commitment Attendance goals are 60% for the meetings. We have social gathering several times a year. We also all work together for our fundraisers and service projects. Beyond meetings the time commitment depends on how involved you choose to be. 2 or 3 hours a month is a great way to get involved. Overall it's not to much of a time commitment. The options are very flexible, and designed to best benefit our busy memebers lives. |
