VOCATIONAL SERVICE Each week we ask a member to give us a short (3-5 min.) description of their work, how they got into it, what they like about it, and tips they might have for people wishing to get into it. As we learn more and more about one another's work, we intend to share this knowledge with others - presentations in schools, for instance.

INTERNATIONAL SERVICE Our club has speakers who come present opportunities for international service frequently at our Tuesday morning meetings.

CLUB SERVICE/LEADERSHIP Our club requires a certain amount of time from our members to organize programs, bring in new members, handle finances and reporting to Rotary International. This is an opportunity for you to practice your leadership and program management skills. You can learn what your strengths are and how to work together with others. Many have learned the skills their employers value most through their service in Rotary. WEEKLY MEETING PROGRAMS Rainier Valley Rotary Club meets every Tuesday 7:30 - 8:30 a.m., at Kallaloo, 3820 S.
