Join a team to share the fun and ensure breaks from the cold.
We can have three Rotarians per shift.

Rogers Rotary sponsored Dylan Honnoll and Jack Lenz, both Rogers HS juniors, to attend Camp Enterprise. On November 23 these budding entrepreurs will share their experience at the three-day buseiness-oriented camp. WCCO TV was at Camp E. Check out their video that features Jack.

Change is coming to Rogers Rotary!

The outcome from the Action Plan session with Gayle Noakes was that December, January and February will be a pilot period implementing several changes including meeting times and locations. 

The goal is to provide access to meetings for all. During this trial period we will test attendance at and appreciation for meetings held at 8 a.m. (not 7:00), noon, and after work.

– 1^st Wednesday—8 a.m. at location TBA

– 2^nd Wednesday—noon (probably Davanni’s)

– 3^rd Wednesday—KidPack assembly at CROSS Services

– 4^th Wednesday—4:30+ social at various locations

Watch for more information about locations and programs!

We welcome our newest Rogers Rotarian, Ben Gavin, to the speaker’s role on November 6. Ben is a chiropractor with HealthSource of Rogers. He joined the clinic following experience at the HealthSource office in White Bear Lake. Come hear some of his life story, how he chose his vocation, and what he hopes to receive and conribute as a member of Rogers Rotary.

We did it!
We topped the 2018 Mystery Auction total and qualified for matching funds from District 5950. All proceeds go to support polio erradication worldwide through Rotary International’s PolioPlus Fund. Thank you to the members and community sources who donated valuable mystery gifts, to all who purchased, and to volunteer auctioneer Dave Christian!

Rogers Rotary is partnering with the Rogers Police Department to DAZZLE trick-or-treaters. Come to the Word of Peace Church parking lot on Saturday, October 26 from 4-6 p.m. We’ll be the car with flashing lights and festive Rotarians!

Join us for a fun, energizing event to raise funds for polio eradication,
one of Rotary International’s primary worldwide causes. The auction is
part of our 7 a.m. meeting!

Mystery Auction is rescheduled for Wednesday, October 30.

Join us for a favorite service project during our Wednesday, October 16 meeting. KidPack is a fast-paced assembly line project that bags supplemental weekend food for our elementary school students. Tubs filled with these bags go to Rogers and Hassan Elementary Schools where staff distribute the bags to kids they know would have a weekend food shortage.

Rogers Rotary partners with CROSS Services to gather the food items. The KidPack program is funded by a Rotary District 5950 grant and club fundraising. Come have fun doing this service project during the 7 a.m. meeting!
