WHY JOIN ROTARY? 

Do you want to help make a real difference to:

Do you want to have fun and enjoyment while doing it?
Do you want to work with like minded people?
Do you want to work through an internationally recognised organisation?
Do you want to work through an organisation that has been helping out for over 100 years?

The Four Way Test for Rotarians:

Is it the TRUTH?
Is it FAIR to all concerned?
Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER RELATIONSHIPS?
Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

 

The Rotary Motto is 'Service above Self'

 

Rotary has no secret handshake, no secret policy, no official creed, no secret meeting or rituals. It is an open society of men and women who simply believe in helping others.

Rotary is a service club. Its business is mankind. Its product is service. Rotarians provide community service to both local and international communities.

Are you considering applying to join a Rotary Club? If yes, but our Monday evening club does not suit you, we suggest you use this link to our Rotary District Website, and contact another local club which meets at a time that is more suited to you.

However should you like the sound of us Waitara Rotary Club meets every Monday evening from 6:30 to 8:00 at the Hornsby RSL (see map link on Home Page) We will also be having joint meetings with other clubs and social evenings instead of the meeting on a very regular basis. You are welcome to come anytime, best to ring first to ensure we will be meeting there not with another club, in a members home or at a social venue.

The following list is intended to provide you with a realistic 'checklist' to make at least a preliminary assessment of how well our organisation and our Club could meet your expectations and needs.

Please contact us any time if you would like to discuss this further!
