It’s a good idea to come to a few meetings, meet some of our members, and see if Rotary would be a good fit for you. You will be asked to complete a membership form if you decide to join. The club president or membership chairman will meet with you to answer any questions and ensure you understand the obligations of membership. Subsequently, the board will consider your application, and once approved, it will be published in the bulletin for two consecutive weeks. You will then be inducted into the club at our weekly meetings.
You will immediately notice the welcoming atmosphere at Concord Afton-Sunset Rotary. We meet weekly at High Branch Brewing Company in the Gibson Mill complex, downstairs from The Market Food Hall. Since we are an evening club, getting to the brewery for a drink or a bite to eat from the food hall a little early is an excellent opportunity to get to know some of your fellow Rotarians. The program and business meeting begins at 6:00 p.m. and ends promptly at 7:00 p.m.
