Our club members are dedicated people who share a passion for community service and friendship.
The Minden Rotary Club is facing the challenge many non-profits face today – retaining and finding new members. As the current co-president (along with Skip Pardee), I have been a Rotarian for over 20 years. Rotary is an organization that I am proud to support through their devotion to the community as well as world-wide. If it were not for Rotary, polio would still be a world-wide challenge. If it were not for Rotary, we would not have the Minden gazebo; the new fence around the FISH Family Services in the Ranchos erected in 2022; the many teacher grants that have been given over the years, or the monies given to the many organizations in our valley that support children at risk, the Minden Rotary’s primary objective.
As you know, the power of any organization lies within its membership. Our club needs to continue to have new energy and new ideas. I have to believe with the many new faces in our community, many were former Rotarians. I hope that you will join us as well as other non-Rotarians to see what a vibrant group we are. If you contact me before you come to a meeting – lunch is on us!
Additionally, we have been gifted with many fine speakers each week that have taught us many things. If you are interested in speaking, please let us know.
So perhaps this year, you will think about Rotary. If you would like to have some fun, join us and a world-wide group of people who truly make a difference.

Our 1.2 million-member organization started with the vision of one man—Paul P. Harris. The Chicago attorney formed one of the world’s first service organizations, the Rotary Club of Chicago, on 23 February 1905 as a place where professionals with diverse backgrounds could exchange ideas and form meaningful, lifelong friendships. Rotary’s name came from the group’s early practice of rotating meetings among the offices of each member.
You are invited to visit us at an upcoming meeting
The Minden Rotary Club meets each Thursday at noon at the C.O.D. Casino and we bring our own lunch (or Schat’s is right next door).
