About us
You may know that Lake City has a Rotary Club, and we would like to tell you more about it and invite you to attend one of our meetings!
Our club meets Mondays at noon at Port 104 in Lake City. The meeting includes a presentation by a speaker where members learn about issues that affect the community and the region. Meetings end promptly at 1 p.m., as most members return to work.
