We join Rotary for two principle reasons:
For business and networking opportunities.
To give back to local Community.
We stay for the relationships we create at Rotary. Many of us expand our humanitarian goals from local to global through Rotary.
In 2014, we engaged Bruce Davis to take us through a similar strategic planning exercise. We reviewed Club health through the Rotary areas of Service:
- Club Service
- Community
- Vocational
- International
- New Generations
How does what we do tie into Rotary Areas of Focus, which are:
- Promoting Peace
- Fighting Disease
- Clean Water
- Education
- Mothers and Children
- Growing Local Economics
One of my goals is that some day, Brighton Rotary sponsors a Peace Scholar.
As a club, we then shared some ideas:
Socials are important.
Dinner meetings once in a while with partners.
Movies, film festival, possibly with Rotary focus.
Have Fun.
We need at strategic goal, a purpose.
Our size is small, need new members.
Community Focus
New members, why do they join, why do they stay.
Membership Committee
We need to expose friends to Rotary, ask and invite them to an event.
Membership - each one bring one, bring a guest.
We need a strategic goal, a project we all get behind.
