Wenatchee Rotary lives "service above self." Rotary is an oasis, if you will. Why? Our service activities, our love for community, the absolutely most friendly atmosphere, our programs; in short, our members.

-Mark Kulaas

Two reasons: great connections across typical lines of age, vocation, etc. Great opportunities to serve the community.

- Don Myers

I believe this club is a great opportunity for many people, however I don't think all people are right for Rotary. I only encourage people who are do-ers to become involved. I love what we stand for! Our Rotary Club is like a second family to me. I'm always eager to introduce others to our club. I'm proud to be a Rotarian! This is a great club to be part of. I am proud to be a Wenatchee Rotarian. As a new member of Rotary I am enjoying my first year. Great people, feel very welcome and I'm having fun!

Our club has been blessed with leadership over the years of some outstanding and exceptional people. These Rotarians inspire and motivate. Thus, their legacies push out club in the direction exemplified by our founder, Paul Harris.

- Dick Harris

I have been a member of many organizations over the years and none compare to Rotary. There is opportunity for individuals to be individuals and still work towards common goals, for the betterment of all involved. I have worked on dozens of projects in my 32 years in Rotary, some I voted for, some against. I supported all of them. Rotarians in our club are good and committed people trying to make a difference in the world. What more worthy goal can we have? We support our youth, our aged and those in between. We respond to needs, large and small all around the globe. We have fun and enjoy fellowship with others of like mind. It is who we are and what we stand for. Have fun in Rotary!

- John McDarment

I feel that "service" in service clubs means just that. I was extremely impressed with the breadth of service in the club (WSHS) and it was the primary reason why I joined. Hands on service builds Fellowship as well as makes our community a better place.
