A warm August hello to all Sunset Rotarians, families, friends and potential guests. We kick the month off with our regular 2nd Monday of the month meeting at Hincheys with our usual 6:00 time slot in your busy week.
What are the benefits of being a Rotarian? Interviews in Rotary Magazine recently answered with:
Rotary enriches life by fostering meaningful friendships and offers leadership opportunities that enhance personal and professional growth.
Rotary provides a deep sense of fulfillment through involvement in community service projects.
What is the "Time Factor" to you? A couple thoughts on that subject......
Should we ask what is important to a member? Let's get an answer to that and we can build a meaningful experience around that.
Have your needs changed since the club was founded in 1997? What are our needs today?
Membership is a two-way experience--What rotary brings to you and What you bring to the Rotary Club!
Health Hints:
Better mental health and stress reduction for seniors is directly related to "Regular Social Interaction"---So join us!
Emotional well being comes from a "sense of belonging and purpose"----thus meetings and service projects!
