“Many
Opportunities Await You”
Welcome to the Bridgeton Rotary Club.
When you become a member, the local club opens the door to a wide
variety of opportunities as you become part of the world’s leading
international service club.
The opportunity for vocational
service. Rotary strives
to have a wide variety of good representatives of many vocations in all
clubs. Rotarians are encouraged to serve others through their work, to
practice high ethical standards in all they do, to represent their
vocations with honor and to associate with and learn from people from
different vocations in your community, throughout the nation and the
world.
The opportunity for club service.
Rotary provides many
opportunities for sharpening leadership skills and strengthening
fellowship through the administration of an effective functioning club.
In order to carry out Rotary’s mission of local, national and
international service, you have to have a strong Rotary Club.
Opportunities include service on committees, involvement in projects and
filling the other club leadership positions as Board members and
officers.
The opportunity for community service.
Rotary Club membership opens new doors for your involvement in
meaningful projects and activities of the club to improve life in its
community. Joining with other business and professional people to do
good things for your community is one of the opportunities that makes
membership in Rotary valuable and fulfilling. Our club serves the
community in many ways including support and involvement in the County
Adopt-A-Road Project, Bridgeton Area Food Banks, Bridgeton Invitational
Baseball Tournament, Bridgeton Public Library, Bridgeton Main Street
Association, Career Days / Other Vocational activities at area high
schools, Scholarships to Area High School Students, the Hug-A-Bear
program and many more.
The opportunity for international
service. Through
membership in your local Rotary Club, you gain the opportunity to
support and get involved in Rotary’s humanitarian services and programs
that reach around the globe and that promote world understanding and
peace. Rotary’s International Foundation with contributions from
Rotarians and clubs throughout the world, has provided the financial
resources and volunteers to tackle such projects as Polio Plus, which
lead the way to almost totally eradicating Polio from the world. There
are few organizations in the world that can provide this opportunity for
world service to local club members.
While we are taking advantage of these
opportunities for service, we also have a good time doing so. Our
weekly meetings and other projects and activities are where ideas are
exchanged and friendships are made and strengthened. We look forward to
welcoming you into the exciting, fulfilling and opportunity-filled world
of Rotary.
