ROTARY CLUB OF CROWBOROUGH |

|
This site is
intended to provide programme details and
reminders for existing members and to provide information to anyone
interested in the Rotary in general and the Rotary Club of Crowborough in
particular. Rotary is all
about FELLOWSHIP in SERVICE to one's community, the country and not least
internationally. Rotary was founded nearly 100 years ago as an organisation of Professional & Business people intent on helping people less fortunate than they. The Rotary Club of Crowborough was chartered 56 years ago, after 50 years we received our certificate in acknowledgement of this achievement.. |
|
Rotary is a
tremendously good way for successful people to put back into society what
they have been fortunate enough to gain The members of Crowborough Rotary
Club are very keen, that in order to keep up the impetus of the work we carry
out, that we should recruit new and young blood into the club. Many people
think of Rotary as a men’s club, as indeed it was. Things have now
changed and Rotary is a dual gender organisation, some of the newer clubs
that have been formed have a large proportion of lady members, several of
whom have now risen through the ranks to become club presidents. |

Our
Christmas appeal, where we call on the successful businesses in our community
to put a little back and so to help us in our work within the community. Last
year our appeal raised in the order of £3590 and we must thank those
businesses and individuals who contributed to our appeal. We would be
pleased to hear from anyone who has an interest in our organisation, please
contact us through one of the links in this site and we would be pleased to
tell you more about Rotary and even better invite you along to one of our
meetings to meet us and see more of what we do. Fellowship is our prime
objective and it is through this fellowship that we achieve our aims within
the community. |
