Rotary’s strength lies in our ability to serve, connect, and inspire, and the Comstock Park Rotary Club is ready to make the 2025–26 year one of meaningful engagement and lasting impact. 

This year, our club goals are rooted in Rotary International’s Strategic Priorities, with clear and achievable benchmarks to guide the work of our committees. The visioning activity we will do as a Club on Saturday, October 25th will be a springboard for making our goals a reality.  

Enhance Participant Engagement
Every Rotarian in our club will be part of at least one service project this year. After all, service is at the heart of Rotary. In addition, we will hold at least two social events, giving us time to connect, build friendships, and strengthen the bonds that make our club vibrant.

Increase Our Impact
Our giving to The Rotary Foundation makes a difference worldwide. As a club, we are committed to contributing at least $3,500 this year. Locally, we will complete at least five service projects, continuing to make a visible and positive difference in our own community.

Expand Our Reach
Membership is the lifeblood of Rotary. This year, our goal is to grow to 28 members, bringing in new voices and perspectives. We are also investing in the future of Rotary by sponsoring an Interact Club at Comstock Park High School and re-establishing one at Kenowa Hills High School. These young leaders are the next generation of service, and we are proud to support them.

Increase Our Ability to Adapt
Strong communication is key to our relevance in the community. We will update our website and social media at least twice per month so that members, partners, and neighbors can see and share the good work being done through Rotary.

These goals are ambitious, but with each of us contributing our time, energy, and ideas, they are entirely within reach. I am confident that when we look back at the end of this Rotary year, we will see a club that has grown stronger, made a greater impact, and lived out the Rotary motto: Service Above Self.
