Webster Rotary Seeks New Members
Webster Rotary club is looking to increase its member size in order to be able to do more work within the community. While many of the members have a strong heart for Rotary and it’s “Service above Self” motto, their physical strength no longer is able to do some of the tasks for some of the projects. The goal is to create a Third Place! With everything going on in the world, people have their workplace, their home, but they also need that third place to be able to make connections and feel valuable in their community. Webster Rotary is just that place. So if you’re looking for a Third Place and would like to learn more about the Webster Rotary Club, an information night is being hosted by the group on Thursday, September 19 at 6:30 PM. This night will showcase some of the efforts while providing conversation with members and a bite to eat. If you are interested, please call or text Robyn at 585-424-0859 or email her at hairchic_y@yahoo.com. and RSVP for a headcount.
