A Note About Bi-Monthly Meetings:


The Rotary hosts bi-monthly meetings. One the second Thursday of each month at 5:30 PM at the Gloucester Library (6920 Main St.) and a breakfast meeting held the fourth Thursday of the month at 7:30 AM at Sanders Retirement Village (7385 Walker Ave.).

In addition to being a space to gather, report on old business, and plan new initiatives, each meeting also includes a presentation by a guest speaker doing vital work in the community.

All are welcome to attend these meetings and learn more about the Rotary!
