2023-24 Rotary Citation

Congratulations to the Fidalgo Island Rotary Club for receiving a Rotary Citation award for the Rotary year 2023-24.

The Rotary Citation, now known as the Club Excellence Award, is an award given to Rotary, Rotaract, and Interact clubs that meet certain goals set by the incoming Rotary International President each year. The award recognizes clubs for their hard work and activities that support organizational priorities. The goals are designed to strengthen Rotary and the club, and to help clubs engage members, stay relevant in their communities, and run more efficiently.

As the then-president, Brianna Hackler, got to choose the goals the club worked toward, which included growing membership, participation in service projects, involvement in RI and District trainings, hosting social events, giving a certain amount to Polio Plus, hosting a strategic planning session, and maintaining an up-to-date online presence.

Shout out to our club for keeping operations smooth, effective and fun!

Fifth Tuesday FUN Event

Instead of holding a FIR meeting on the fifth Tuesday of a month, the Family of Rotary Committee hosts a FUN event. This July due to unexpected chilly weather the event was moved to August 6th. FIR members gathered in the evening at Washington Park for a FUN filled family event. Thank you to the Family of Rotary committee for a fabulous time!

Thanks to Kim Kimmy we have a bunch of great photos of the event. Check them all out here: Fifth Tuesday Picnic

FUN Club Meeting

FUN Club members meet at the early hour of 7am on Tuesday mornings. You would think that folks would be tired and sleepy at this hour. But not this bunch! They are lively, excited and ready to have a good time. Here's a picture of the members at a recent meeting where the theme was HATs. Members came all decked out and had another entertaining meeting.
