"ROTARY eCLUB ONE" MEMBERSHIP:

The purpose of Rotary eClub One of District 5450 is to extend Rotary to business, professional and community leaders in any Rotary District who are unable to meet traditional attendance requirements.

Inability to attend a traditional Rotary club could be the result of demanding business or professional commitments, extensive travel, confinement due to ill health or disability, or residence beyond reasonable distance from an existing Rotary club.
