Welcome to Our Club
The Rotary Club of Wilmette has merged with the Wilmette Harbor Rotary Club, the combined clubs are now all officially the Rotary Club of Wilmette. The original Wilmette Rotary Club was chartered in 1924 and was known as the Noon Club. In 1990, the Wilmette Harbor Club was chartered, and was known as the Morning Club. In 2019, a satellite club was established as part of the Noon group. Today there are over 80 active members who gather to do good for others while enjoying good fellowship, with the choice of meeting either morning, noon or evening.
Our Club members enthusiastically live the Rotary motto of “Service Above Self” both locally and internationally. Recent projects include water well installation at schools in Angola, food packing and providing necessities to the homeless in Chicago, supplying ultrasound equipment and related training to people in Uganda, providing disaster relief supplies to hurricane, typhoon, and other natural disaster survivors, providing winter coats and shoes to low-oncome children, food packing for people in Guatemala and Central America, and supporting local food pantries, literacy efforts and diversity.
NOTICE: We are currently meeting in-person on the 2nd Wednesday of each month at Noon, the 4th Wednesday at 7:30am and the 1st Tuesday of each month at 6pm. Our meeting place for the 7:30 am meeting is the Sheridan Shores Yacht Club. The Noon group meets at St. John's Church. The evening meeting is at St. Joseph Church, Wilmette.
We’d love to have you join one of our meetings!
