Our Work
Rotarians’ work is both local and international. The club annually awards local scholarships and recognizes outstanding students, such as through the Great Expectations and Distinguished Service scholarships. We also recognize local small businesses through the Sonny Brown Business of the Year Award and provide grants to local nonprofits. Globally, the Club contributes to eradicating polio, clean water, hygiene education, and crisis response.
Friendship
We do a lot of work to create meaningful contributions and have fun while doing it. Fellowship and friendship are core components of the Rotary experience. We abide by the Four Way Test, a code of ethics adopted by Rotary in 1943, which has been translated into more than 100 languages:
Of the things we think, say or do
Is it the TRUTH?
Is it FAIR to all concerned?
Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
If you enjoy making a difference in your community and world, making new friends, and learning about the community, we invite you to join us!
