ROTARY CLUB OF LASALLE CENTENNIAL ANNOUNCES CREATION OF LOCAL INTERACT CLUB FOR YOUTH

Interact is Rotary International’s service club for young people ages 12 to 18. Interact clubs are sponsored by individual Rotary clubs, which provide support and guidance, but they are self-governing and self-supporting.

Each year, Interact Clubs complete at least two community service projects, one of which furthers international understanding and goodwill. Through these efforts, Interactors develop a network of friendships with local and overseas clubs and learn the importance of developing leadership skills and personal integrity; demonstrating helpfulness and respect for others; understanding the value of individual responsibility and hard work; and advancing international understanding and goodwill.

As one of the most significant and fastest-growing programs of Rotary service, with more than 10,700 clubs in 109 countries and geographical areas, Interact has become a worldwide phenomenon. Almost 200,000 young people are involved in Interact.

We are certain that this club will serve as an important purpose for the Town of LaSalle community. The Interact Club’s first meeting will be Thursday, April 27, 2018 at 5:00 p.m. at the LaSalle Hangout (1400 Front Road, Unit 2).
