Attendance for Members
 

The purpose of the attendance requirement is to foster fellowship among club members. Attending club meetings is your opportunity to make new friends and keep in touch with established friends. Meetings also keep you in touch with the current events of your club, district, and Rotary International.

As explained in the Standard Rotary Club Constitution, each member must meet the following conditions to satisfy the attendance requirement:

•Attend or make up at least 50% of regular Rotary club meetings in each half of the year. 

13 Meetings per 6 months or 26 meetings per year.
•Attend at least 30% of their club's regular meetings in each half of the year.

7 Meetings at PVR per 6 months or 13 per year at PVR
         (This could be once per month plus Christmas Party, Debunking, or 1 Fundraiser)

•A member may not miss or fail to make up four consecutive meetings.

Make-ups
If you cannot attend a club meeting, there are many ways you can still receive attendance credit. According to Art. VIII, Section 1 of the Club Constitution, these include:

•Attending a meeting of a Rotaract or Interact club or Rotary Community Corps
•Attending certain district or RI meetings
•Participating in a club-sponsored event
•Attending a club board or service committee meeting with authorization of the club board

Make-up Credit

Attendance can be made up if you attend one of the following district or RI meetings:
•District conference

•District committee meeting (at request of the district governor)
•RI committee meeting
