Meetings are arranged as follows:
First and third Thursdays in the month are short informal social togethers starting at 7.30 P.M. at various locations, currently the Robin Hood at Durley.
The second and fourth Thursdays where the Club’s business matters are discussed along with planning for events and we have a snack meal, this is currently at Wickham Golf Club
When there is a fifth Thursday in the month, this is devoted to a social event by members and their partners usually away from our regular meeting locations.
The business of the Club is managed and regulated by the Club Council along with various committees. In the past the Club has donated around £20,000 each year to local, national and international charitable causes.
We are twinned with the Rotary Club of Nantes Jules Verne in France, and they visit us or we visit them every two years.
