Q: Why does the Rotary Club sponsor a Rotaract Club?

A: Rotaract Clubs are intended to develop future members of Rotary (similar to the minor leagues of professional sports).

In a few years, Rotaract members gain the experience necessary to become contributing members of their sponsoring Rotary Club.

 

Q: When are meetings held?
A: The QVR Rotaract Club meets on the first and third Wednesday of the month at 6:00 p.m. Subcommittees meet on a varying schedule based on the availability of their members.
