HOW DOES ONE BECOME A MEMBER OF THE MEDINA ROTARY CLUB?
Membership is by invitation. Members are chosen to represent their respective businesses or professions. The "Classification Principle" insures that our membership includes a qualified representative of each worthy business and profession in our community. In this way, our club becomes a cross-section of the community.
WHAT IS EXPECTED OF A MEMBER?
Rotary is built upon fellowship and friendship which depends upon being at the meetings.
A Rotarian is expected to attend the meetings, or participate in club activities.
It is understood that among busy people a problem of attendance may arise. If a member misses a meeting the member is privileged to "make-up" at another Rotary Club. There are over 24,500 Rotary Clubs in every nation of the free world and the time and place of the meeting of each is listed in the official Directory.
Needless to say, each make-up affords the Rotarian a splendid opportunity to broaden their acquaintance, and to
bring back to their Club information and ideas that can improve: their club's operations and programs.
