Attendance

The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service is the first objective of Rotary.   Attendance at regular club meetings is required so that acquaintance and fellowship may be developed as a first step toward lasting friendships.

The minimum attendance requirements is not less than 70% of regular club meetings, or other activities or events designated as eligible for attendance credit.   Our club goal is 90%.

Rotarians who miss a regular meeting at their own club can make up the absence by attending a meeting of another club. Such make-ups must occur within 14 days prior to or following the missed meeting.

Make-ups at the other Greensboro clubs are automatically reported by the respective club secretaries to our club, and payment for meals is also handled by the clubs so Rotarians attending the meeting of another Greensboro club need not pay separately.   However, when making-up at out of town meetings you will be expected to pay the meal charge of the club whose meeting you are attending.

If you are a rotarian and expect to be in another city or country and want to plan a make-up, the website, http://www.rotary.org can provide you with the names and meeting dates, times and locations of Rotary clubs in the area you will be visiting.   It is also possible to complete a make-up on-line at ECLUB ONE – WELCOME.  It is customary to exchange club flags with any club you visit, especially those in other countries.  A Guilford Rotary Club flag can be obtained before your trip, and flags received from other clubs should be presented to our club for display after you return.
