Rotary Club of Palgrave’s Weekly Rotary Minute


By Krysta Cadden
What kind of Rotarian are you?
Rotary is what you make of it. Whether you've worn the same hat in your Club for years or are looking to try a new one on for size, here are some typical personality types you will find in every Club:
The World Traveler: your best friends are the nurses at the vaccination clinic and the stamps of your passport are your badges of honour. Your natural habitat are the streets leading up to make-up meetings around the world.
The Rotary Booster: you don't need a Rotary pin — you have a Rotary tattoo instead. You cannot say enough about the good of Rotary to anyone (or anything) who will listen. Your natural habitat is a van with Rotary gearwheel hubcaps and a “Proud Member” decal in your window.
The Born Leader: you joined Interact after your Rotary Youth Exchange across the ocean, founded Rotaract at your University and joined Rotary full-time at 25. Your natural habitat is training seminars, conferences, Rotary alumni associations and the head seat in any boardroom.
The Mentor: you teach new members the ins and outs of Rotary and you understand that bringing young professionals into Rotary keeps it lively and fresh. Your natural habitat is any orientation event — of any kind.
The Wallet Opener: when your Club holds an auction, you always come away with more than one item, whether you need another rice cooker or not. You are a major sponsor of all things Rotary — or anywhere that has a tip jar on the counter. Your natural habitat is charity balls and grade-school craft fairs.
The Worker Bee: rain or shine you're there to help. Between work and family commitments you may miss a meeting here or there but are always the first to pitch in at any service event. Your motto is “If you want something done, give it to a busy person.” Your natural habitat is high school concerts, hockey games, food banks — wherever you are is another chance to talk about Rotary.
What kind of Rotarian are you — or could you be?
