Joining your local Rotary Club:
We are a friendly club and always interested in talking
to potential new Rotarians; so please contact us if our fellowship
and community projects appeal to your own sense of "giving
something back" to your local area. If you wish to help your local community and/or International community
through humanitarian service, you might consider joining our Club and
in the process, enjoy the friendship and fellowship of like minded
people. Friends of Rotary: If
you do not have the time to attend our weekly Thursday evening
meetings, through business or family reasons, you would still be
welcome to join our club. Not as a member, but as a Friend of Rotary
Club of Northfleet with Ebbsfleet. You will have the
same enjoyment and most of the privileges of being a member of the
Club. There is no joining or membership fee and it is good fun.
If you are a member, your Partner might also consider joining
Rotary as a member or as a Friend of Rotary.
Please contact our Club Secretary for further details.
