New Fun & Frolic Format - We have decided to try something new for Fun and Frolic time during our weekly meetings. Fun and Frolic will now be The Rotary Minute.  This time will be for the assigned Rotarian to share a fun fact about Rotary. This can be about anything you find interesting - something historical, news from Rotary International, information from the monthly Rotary Magazine, etc. Some good resources include Rotary.org, Rotary's social media pages, your monthly magazine, our club and district websites and social media, as well as other club and district websites.
