Rotarians are passionate, sharing people. It’s only natural, then, for us to want to share our interests and activities with other Rotarians. With a membership hovering around 200, though, all this sharing could overwhelm us. That’s why we have the Rotary Shares Table.
According to the policy “Sharing Non-Rotary Information with the Club Membership: Rotary Shares Table, Meeting Announcements, Harpoon Articles, Club Website:”
“The Rotary Shares Table is for Rotarians use to make available for interested members information regarding non-Rotary related activities, publications and/or products. Rotarians’ material is welcome at the Rotary Shares Table but should not be accompanied by said Rotarian or a representative of another organization. Non-Rotary materials are not to be placed on the luncheon tables or individually distributed at meetings. The President will frequently remind members to check the Shares Table for information of interest and the table will also be used to collect signatures for Rotary Cares Committee cards being sent to members. Members who place information on the Shares table are responsible for collecting any that remains. Items/material not retrieved from the Shares table will be disposed of at the discretion of the Sgt at Arms.”
I encourage everyone to use the Rotary Shares Table and share your interests and activities with your fellow Rotarians. I would also encourage everyone to check the table for items that may be of interest to you. Who knows? You may find your next passion there.
