Rotarians are business and professional leaders who take an active role in their communities while greatly enriching their personal and professional lives. A Rotary club contains a diverse group of professional leaders from the community that the club serves.
To join Oulu International Rotary Club you can either contact any of our board members or visit our weekly meetings on Mondays from 16:30 to 18:00 in Rauhala, Mannenkatu 1, Oulu.
New members are welcome! Contact information to our club can be found from the "Contact" page of this web site. Individuals wishing to join Rotary must be sponsored or proposed for membership into the club. The best way to start is to contact one of the members of our club.
Often, a person being considered for membership is invited by a club member, or sponsor, to attend one or more club meetings to learn more about Rotary. In this case, the sponsor submits the candidate’s name to the club's membership committee.
