Our membership of proud Rotarians represents a broad range of people, differing in their professional and personal experiences, yet bonded by our commitment to community service. As Hamilton’s Original Rotary Club, we are committed to literacy, children & youth projects that improve our local and international communities. As Hamilton’s premier service club our members demonstrate the Rotary Motto “Service Above Self” while enjoying the opportunity for networking and fellowship.
