What’s Required to Join Blairstown Rotary?
The main requirement to join Rotary is the desire to get involved and make a difference in our community. We know that today’s work and family schedule take its toll on volunteer time, so we are working hard to make Rotary accessible to all who want to join and contribute.
Meeting Schedule
Our monthly business meeting is the 1st Thursday of the month at 7 PM. This is our primary meeting of the month. The business of the club is conducted. We generally have pizza and salad. Typical cost per person is $10.00.
Additional meetings are held on the 3rd Thursday starting at 6:30 PM, and it usually features a guest speaker. We serve desserts and coffee. Typically, the club pays for this cost.
Our live meetings are usually held at the Givens Belet American Legion Hall, Route 521, Blairstown. If you would like to join a meeting, email your request to info@blairstownrotary.org.
Activities
We hold and participate in many projects throughout the year. What we can accomplish is only limited by the time, enthusiasm and skills of our members. We are confident that we can find projects that match your time, skills and abilities. Or maybe you have some ideas of your own, but you need people and resources to help carry them out. That’s what Rotary is all about.
Throughout the year there are optional Rotary sponsored events. Examples include conferences, training meetings, fundraising events, holiday parties, picnics, golf outings, etc. Costs vary based on the event. Participation is encouraged in order to build fellowship and to get better acquainted with other club members.
Dues
Dues are used to pay for the operation of Rotary so that the money we raise can be used to fund our projects and donations. Rotary dues pay for the operational costs of Rotary International, our local District 7475 and our local club. Annual Rotary dues are $250.00, billed $125.00 per half.
The club strongly encourages our members to support The Rotary Foundation with a minimum annual tax-deductible donation of $100. Blairstown Rotary is proud to note that almost 100% of its members contribute to The Rotary Foundation. Rotary Foundation is highly regarded, internationally recognized and very efficient.
