Message from the President

Incoming Rotary International President Shekhar Mehta has urged Rotarians to become more involved in service projects, saying that caring for and serving others is the best way to live because it changes not only other people’s lives, but also our own. (Watch President Shekhar’s inspiring address to incoming District Governors.)

 

As we move beyond the past 16 months of social distancing and isolation, Gloucester Rotary is celebrating the start of our 99^th year of service to our community and the world beyond. This year will be a time to come back together, continue our work, and prepare to celebrate our 100^th anniversary in 2023.

 

Gloucester Rotary is made up of 60 dedicated and caring individuals, who take action and make a difference. We support many local and global causes, including funding scholarships for graduating Gloucester high school seniors, organizing an annual “Polar Plunge” to support the international “End Polio Now” campaign, and our signature project of assisting the City of Gloucester with the acquisition of equipment for the Stage Fort Park playground and bandstand. These are but a few of our projects. A more comprehensive list of recent programs Gloucester Rotary has supported can be viewed here.

 

For visiting Rotarians, welcome and thank you for your service. Please join us at an upcoming meeting on Tuesdays at 12noon at Cruiseport Gloucester, 6 Rowe Square, Gloucester.

 

If you would like more information about Rotary International and Gloucester Rotary, please contact us to learn more.

 

We look forward to connecting with you.
