New Spouse Membership
The Parkville Rotary Board has recently approved a new spouse membership. This membership is similar to the Corporate membership in that the spouse member only pays for meals when they attend. The first spouse in Rotary is still the Rotarian that Rotary International recognizes but like corporate designees these spouses will be considered members of our club. Please email Scott Walterbach (scott@bw-llp.com) with any questions you may have.
The Membership Committee has been hard at work putting together new membership forms! All members can access the forms by clicking on the blue box below which will take members to a dropbox link with the forms. Give these to potential members! The new spouse forms can be found here as well.
The following forms can be found in the link:
Standard Rotarian Membership Packet
Corporate Membership Packet
Spouse Membership Packet
Please submit the forms filled out to Dalyn Novak (dnovak@wskfarch.com) so she can get new member information added to ClubRunner after the board's approval!
We will be sending out an excel version of our Club Roster in the upcoming days. Please review your information and let Dalyn Novak know if anything isn't correct. The information you will be reviewing is what is listed in ClubRunner which is then reported to Rotary International so it is very important that we have your information correct.
