Stories

Before college, business school, or their first jobs, more than 2,000 U.S. high school students are learning what it takes to become tomorrow's brightest business leaders.

Each year, nearly 25 Rotary clubs and districts conduct three-day educational retreats in a program known as Camp Enterprise. At each retreat, seasoned business professionals and entrepreneurs teach 100 or so area high school juniors how to develop, launch, and operate a successful business in a free enterprise economic system.

Ypsilanti Rotary Website now Official!

The Ypsilanti Rotary website formally found at the audaciously obscure clubrunner URL can now be found at YpsiRotary.org.
 
"What does this mean for Ypsi Rotary?" Well, a number of things actually:
  • We can now begin to proudly distribute this URL to the public, use it on media, business cards, banners, facebook, .etc to help promote the club
  • We can begin a social media campaign that can tie to our public-ready website
  • We can boost search engine optimization to help the world find us more easily
  • A whole bunch of super geeky, technical stuff only I care about. But hey, it important to me, so it's good for you.
"What does this mean for us members?" Rotary members can login to the club website to access:
  • Customized, member only communications
  • See member information such as contact information, birthdays and anniversaries, and membership join date.
  • View and pay membership dues
  • Register and pay for club-sponsored, member-only events
More functionality will be coming soon!
 
Thanks,
