Hi Adrian. There are 5 Rotary Clubs in Rotorua, of which i am a member of one. I am also DGN for District 9930 and RCL for 9930-2. Briefly: Rotorua – 97 yrs – lunch meeting, 23 active members, an older group but have some busy members and good projects, has been talk that they are holding in there until there 100th Rotorua West – 59yrs – evening meeting, 26 active members, evening club, many many older members, have 3-4 who do all the work Rotorua North – 40yrs – evening meeting, 23 active members, run a weekly Saturday market but this can have challenges in terms of getting members to get involved in other service projects (this is the club i belong to) Rotorua Sunrise – 37 yrs – breakfast meeting, 31 active members, mid age range, a busy club Rotorua Passport – 4ys, meet monthly, 21 active members, a young vibrant, busy club There has been some general talk about North and West merging however i dont see this of being any benefit to either club. Satellite Club?? Is 5 clubs too many?? Reconfigure North as a Market Club with a focus on that and enlist support from the other clubs? What i am keen to get help on is what are some options worth considering and then how do we progress these.

  2. Hi Janine, gosh, this is a big ticket question… and my apologies for taking a while to respond, been quite Rotary busy over recent wekends.
    I wonder if we should have a phone conversation about potential opiton and how you might progress them. And just so you know me too, I have been District Exec Secretary for 9940 since the 2022/23 year, I am the architect of a new Rotary Club model, an RCL for that Club, and a Fit For Purpose Coach (hence “busy”). Let me know if you’d like a chat and what time might suit, Adrian
