Approximately 1.2 million Rotarians belong to more than 32,000 clubs in over 200 countries and geographical areas around the world. Rotary has been active in Oakville since 1925, and club members have been actively committed to community and international service, and aiding local youth, for decades. There are currently three Rotary Clubs in Oakville, of which Oakville Trafalgar Rotary is the largest. The club has organized The Oakville Family Ribfest fundraises for the past six years. The club raises and gives away about $100,000 each year to help where there is a need. Men and women aged 25 and over are encouraged to seek membership in a local Rotary Club if they are interested in helping to make our world a better place, and have some spare time to volunteer. Oakville Trafalgar Rotary meets on Thursdays at noon at Le Dome Banquet Hall in Oakville for 90 minutes of fellowship, including a presentation by an invited guest speaker. Visitors are most welcome.
