Become a Member

How can I become a member of the Grapevine Rotary Club?

Membership in the Grapevine Rotary Club is by invitation. If you don't know anyone in the club or if you don't have someone to sponsor you, our Membership committee can help with this process. A potential new member must be sponsored by an existing club member. A sponsor will help you complete your Membership Application and answer any questions you might have about Rotary. As a potential member, you must attend at least two club meetings, usually at the invitation of a sponsor, before you can be considered for membership.

Once your application is complete and submitted to the Membership Committee, it is given to the Board of Directors and then the general membership for approval. This process can take a few weeks, as new members are carefully vetted by both the board and club membership. If there are no objections to your admission to the club, the Membership Chair will schedule an orientation meeting with you.  You will then be inducted by the Club President during a regular club meeting.

If you are interested in becoming a member, please contact our our Membership Chair, Greg Jordan, 817-721-4734.

Obligations and Goals of Grapevine Rotary Membership

• 100% attendance is strongly suggested. There are make-up opportunities through attending Board Meetings, Foundation Meetings and on-line make-ups. 
• Fellowship is a great benefit of Rotary; you are encouraged to rotate tables at weekly meetings to interact with all members. 
• It is our responsibility as a Rotarian to share the service of Rotary by sponsoring new members exemplifying the ideals of Rotary. 
• Make an effort to stay for the entire weekly meeting.   
• Attend a Grapevine Rotary Club Board Meeting on the third Thursday of each month at 4:00 p.m. in the Board Room of the Grapevine Chamber of Commerce unless otherwise noted. This is one of the requirements to earn your blue badge. 
• Dues/lunches are billed monthly; the dues are $18 plus your meals and Paul Harris contribution.  If you make up a meeting missed during a month and you make up at another Rotary Club, you are not charged on your monthly bill.  Please pay dues promptly. 
• Our club has 100% participation to Paul Harris which supports the Rotary Foundation, and we want to continue that tradition. Each member supports these humanitarian efforts of Rotary International with a monthly contribution. 
• Select a committee on which to serve and participate, support and volunteer at various club activities throughout the year. 
• Invite your significant other to attend social events. 
• Set a goal to become a chair of a committee, a club director or an officer. 
• Plan to attend the annual Rotary 5790 District Conference, the District Assembly, as well as other District workshops. 
• Be an active participating member; inject your enthusiasm and ideas into the club.
