Monday. Club Mtg 💼 Committees Working Lunch

Rather than our usual speaker format, this session will be a Working Committee Lunch. The room will be set up with tables of six, encouraging members to gather in small groups and dive into the work of our club.

Each group will focus on a different set of priorities, giving members the chance to collaborate, plan, and make real progress. Whether you're looking to lend a hand, find your niche, or lead an initiative—this is your moment.

This meeting is perfect for those new to Rotary—or Rotary-curious! With so many active projects and club initiatives on the go, it’s a fantastic way to learn what Rotary really does and meet members involved in service across all areas.
