A new district-wide contest is here, and it could bring fresh energy and new faces into our club. Rotary District 5110 is inviting members to take part in #TryRotary, a simple campaign built around one idea: invite someone to experience Rotary. With prizes on the line for both guests and clubs, there is more incentive than ever to reach out.
Curious how it works and what you could win?

#TryRotary Contest
There is a fun new way to grow our club, and it starts with a simple invite. Rotary District 5110 has launched the #TryRotary campaign, a district-wide contest designed to bring new people into Rotary through real experiences. Invite a friend, neighbor, or coworker to a meeting or event, and they can enter to win prizes just by sharing their visit or filling out a quick form. There are plenty of smaller prizes up for grabs, along with a grand prize valued at $1,000, so there is real incentive to give Rotary a try.

|
| |
|
It gets even better for our club. The club with the most entries will earn a public relations grant, helping boost visibility and outreach in the community. The campaign runs through May 15, so there is still time to jump in. At the end of the day, most of us joined Rotary because someone invited us. This is your chance to do the same for someone else. Start inviting and see who shows up.
Learn more about the contest HERE.
