Welcome to the Rotary Club of Cottage Grove established in 1960 in Cottage Grove, Oregon.

PEOPLE OF ACTION
Our club is a proud part of this community and of Rotary International. Rotary is a global network of more than 1.2 million members who believe that great things happen when dedicated minds come together.
We are community and business leaders representing different professions, experiences, and perspectives but with a shared desire to connect with others to address the challenges affecting our community and communities around the world.
Our club offers opportunities for our members — and those interested in making a difference — to get involved. Through meetings, social events, and volunteer projects, our members learn about the issues facing our community and communities all over the world, partnering with local, national, and global experts to exchange ideas about potential solutions and to draw up action plans to respond. Along with these opportunities to serve, members also are able to regularly network, resulting in lifelong friendships and business connections.

MAKING A DIFFERENCE
Rotarians work to protect communities from preventable disease, keep women and children healthy, improve education and economic outcomes, create safe water and sanitation infrastructure, protect the environment and make our community and the world a more peaceful place. Here are just some of our club’s projects:
Local Projects:
• Little Lions outdoor soft top play area mats
• Privacy Fence for Family Relief Nursery
• Restoration of the AquaLion Mural at the Warren H. Daugherty Aquatic Center
• Up to $16,000 Per Year in Scholarships to local students.
• Sponsoring Students to Attend Rotary Youth Leadership Award Camp
International Projects:
• School Libraries and Teacher Training in Thailand
• Disaster Relief
And More…

GET INVOLVED
Service and community engagement is at the heart Rotary. It provides the opportunity to engage in service to local and international communities; develop professional and personal skills like leadership, public speaking, and project management; and build a diverse network, of other professionals. And Rotarians have fun while doing it!

Joining Rotary has been one of the most rewarding decisions of my life. I initially sought a way to give back to my community, but what I found was so much more: a global family, incredible personal growth opportunities, and the profound joy of making a tangible difference in the world.
