Here is what our own club members think about their experience in Rotary!

“Having been a Rotarian for 30 years in Washington State and Nevada I have experienced friendships and fellowship with individuals who embody much in life that I value. Rotary is a service club based on a realization that our lives are enriched by gratitude for what we have and made better by sharing of our interests, time, resources, and energy with those who have less.”
"In participating in Rotary events and projects we truly get away from the steady drumbeat of politics, prejudices, and me-first attitudes. In the process we learn much about concrete ways we can better our community and others around the world."    David Whitney

"I love how Rotary does good works both globally AND with our local community!" 
 Trent Diamanti


“It is important to me that for nearly a century, our club members have raised thousands of dollars for local nonprofits and college scholarships. We have contributed countless hours of volunteerism to eradicate polio and to improve the lives of people in Guatemala, Mexico, Rwanda, Ethiopia, and other developing countries. Together, we strive to live lives of service above self.”  
Carla Caldwell



“The joy of making a difference to our local community and worldwide.” 
 Ron Dionne

“I’m excited about Rotary Youth Exchange. I know how life changing it can be to study abroad and how impactful having an international student in our community can be for local youth. It is truly a peace-building program and connects our little haven to the big, big world. Through Rotary, I’ve met some amazing people in our community, similarly ambitious and interested in doing good. I’m excited to see where the years ahead take us together.”    
Shelly Leavens





“In a divided world, Rotarians uniting around service to others.”
Sheldon Spencer


“What Rotary means to me:  
1. Respect and consideration for multiple viewpoints and opinions.
2. Support, both financial and emotional, and volunteer hours for numerous community projects providing assistance and care to our community and facilities. 
3. Fun times and events that benefit all. “
Paul Eisenhardt

“I have enjoyed the community of Rotary. I’ve been in Rotary for 30+ years and always excited about our projects. Locally and internationally, we have helped folks from kids in need with Jumping Mouse, seniors in need, to helping build a water system and sanitation system in Guatemala. This is what I love about Rotary: People working together for the needs of our whole Community!”   
Dave Stanko

Rotary is about friends and about service.
The combination is powerful.
