Do you want to meet other Rotarians from around the district in a brand new fellowship - Rotary Means Business (RMB)?Well the kickoff event is scheduled for Monday, November 30th at 6:00 pm. It will be held at 300 Trade Center, Suite 700 in Woburn within the Conference Center at McLane Middleton.
We will limit the number of guests to 80 so please register early. Although this group will most likely be made up primarily of Rotarians, we hope that those who attend will consider inviting other business people of similar ethics. It is our basic mission to help each other grow our businesses with the potential to introduce others to Rotary and the additional benefits of community service and fellowship, thereby positively affecting membership in our clubs.
For those of you unfamiliar with the Rotary Means Business Fellowship, it can best be described as a collaboration of business people who believe Rotarians should honor the roots of our great worldwide organization and support one another in business. In 1911, Paul Harris, the founder of Rotary, wrote an article entitled “Rational Rotarianism” which can be summarized as follows: “Life in Rotary should be a rational mixture of business, civic activities, and good fellowship”. We know that prosperous Rotarians donate more time and financial resources to local and international projects than Rotarians who are struggling to make overhead. RMB is designed to increase business opportunities for all Rotarians, and in so doing expand the good work Rotary does worldwide.
