How does one become a member of Queen Anne Rotary?

A prospective member must actively hold - or be retired from - a professional, proprietary, executive, or managerial position.

The candidate must have the desire and ability to serve and to meet the club's attendance requirements for its weekly meetings.

An important distinction between Rotary and other organizations is that membership in Rotary is by invitation.   In most instances, a person being considered for membership is invited by a member/sponsor to attend one or more club meetings to learn more about Rotary.  The sponsor may then submit the name to the membership committee to begin the evaluation process.  Others who are interested in membership, but don't know any Rotarian,  may contact the club.  Click on "Contact Us" in the menu above.
