Did you know there are over 91 different Fellowship groups that any Rotarian can join, and membership in a fellowship is open to any interested individual?
Exploring Rotary Fellowships is easy. Maybe you can find one that you are interested in joining like Bee, Beer, Entrepreneurs, Fishing, Gin, Golf, Hunting, Motorcycling, and even the Whiskey Dram Fellowship Club https://whiskeydram.org/ where Dot Jeger had the opportunity to share a glass with a group of Rotarians after the Assistant Governor (AG) training. Quite a list to choose from and here is where the fun begins: https://www.rotary.org/en/our-programs/more-fellowships
