What's going on...
Welcome to our 2026-2027 Rotary Year!
 
Welcome to the Rotary Club of American River. This club has such wonderful and caring members, and I am so grateful to serve as president for the second time.

This year, we will honor the theme "Create Lasting Impact". This message encourages all of us, as people of action, to work together to make a meaningful difference in our community. That is exactly what our American River members are doing.

Please check our calendar and join us at a meeting, a social event, or work with us as we enjoy our time together improving the community.

As our club motto says, "We are serious about the work, but not always serious while doing it".
 
Maria Mengotti
President
