Cycle Chelan - Saturday June 19, 2027- Chelan River Park at 7:00am Rotary Club Meeting - In Person & ZOOM - Tuesdays at 11:45am - Sorrento’s Rotary/KOZI Golden Egg Hunt - Saturday March 27, 2027
Dear Visitor,
Welcome to the Lake Chelan Rotary Club!
Rotary began in Chicago more than 120 years ago, in 1905, and our own club was founded in 1926. As we celebrate 100 years of service to the Lake Chelan Valley in 2026, we continue to live by Rotary’s enduring motto: “Service Above Self.” Through service, fellowship, and community involvement, we work to make our local community—and communities around the world—a better place.
So, what exactly does a Lake Chelan Rotarian do?
You’ll find us throughout the Lake Chelan Valley:
- Reading with students in elementary school classrooms
- Cleaning up litter along highways and in local parks
- Teaching high school students about entrepreneurship
- Providing annual scholarships to students at Chelan and Manson high schools
- Celebrating Earth Day and promoting ways to protect and preserve our planet
- Supporting international projects, including building schools, bathrooms, and water tanks for rural villages in Kenya
Rotary International is a global service organization of approximately 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who believe in a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change—in our communities, across the globe, and within ourselves.
As we look ahead, Rotary’s theme is “Creating Lasting Impact.” Each Rotarian contributes their time, talent, or treasure to make a difference. When we come together in service, those individual contributions become a collective force for positive change.
Our goal is simple: to unite through service and make life better for people in our community and around the world.
Are you interested in learning more about an organization of “People of Action” who create lasting change?
If so, we invite you to email me and join us for one of our lunch meetings. Come meet our members, learn more about what we do, and discover how you might become part of the Lake Chelan Rotary Club.
We look forward to meeting you!
Yours in Service,
Bill Fass
Lake Chelan Rotary President, 2026-2027
Rotary Causes
The work of Rotary begins in the community, and every community has its own unique needs and concerns. While we serve in countless ways, we’ve focused our efforts on seven Causes to maximize our impact. These Causes encompass some of the world’s most critical and widespread humanitarian needs, and we have a proven record of success in addressing them:
