“Creativity for Lasting Impact”
This Rotary year, President Tom Camarda asks one question of the club: how will you show up for your community? A photo exhibition. An AI filmmaking competition. A short story contest. The Dan Stover Music Competition. Invitations for people of every age to discover and share what they know.

Every Rotarian was once a guest. Someone welcomed them, someone invited them, someone believed they would make the club stronger. Come to a luncheon or a coffee talk and see for yourself — no obligation.
