How to Become a Member
Eunice Rotary actively seeks members who want to be involved in the life of the Eunice community.
Prospective members must:
- Be adults of good character and good business and professional reputation;
- Hold or be retired from a professional, proprietary, executive, or managerial position;
- Be able to meet the club’s weekly attendance requirements; and
- Live or work within the Eunice area.
Our goal is a membership that reflects and represents the community’s business, vocational, and professional interests and also forms a pool of resources and expertise to successfully implement service projects.
Member Responsibilities
Eunice Rotary thrives because of the active participation of its membership, which often goes far beyond what is required.
A Rotarian's primary responsibility is attendance at regularly scheduled meetings. All active ordinary members are expected to attend, or submit a make-up, for 60% of the club’s regularly scheduled weekly meetings. Opportunities to make up attendance include attending the regular meeting of another Rotary club, attending various other Rotary meetings, or participating in a club service project.
Members are also required to pay annual dues, which are distributed between Eunice Rotary and Rotary International. In addition, members are encouraged to financially support various club projects.
Participation is what makes Eunice Rotary so effective. All members are expected to participate in various community events and other club service projects, and to serve on assigned committees. They are highly encouraged to participate in local or international Rotary activities, too.
Finally, leadership is a responsibility members are encouraged to embrace and that many find most rewarding.
