Our March 18th Rotary Meeting was hosted by our Dublin Rotaract Club. 
 
We were excited to have Kaitlyn Gushue and Rotaract members present achievements over the last two years, as well as give us a preview of their future goals, and programs designed to meet those goals.
 
Rotaract clubs bring together people ages 18 and older to exchange ideas with leaders in the community, develop leadership and professional skills, and have fun through service.  Rotary club sponsors offer guidance and support and work with Rotaract as partners in service.   
 
Rotaract began in 1968, as  a wall divided East and West Berlin, and the Cold War raged on. The U.S. and the Soviet Union were locked in a space race, and Apollo 8 became the first manned spacecraft to orbit the moon, sending back pictures of Earth from deep space.

It was at time this that Rotary members in North Carolina, USA, chartered the first Rotaract club, to provide young people opportunities for service.  A half-century has passed since those first Rotaract clubs began inspiring young leaders to take action to improve their communities. The world has changed, as has the way Rotaract members connect with one another. But the underlying values of the program, and what attracts people to it, remain remarkably the same. 
 
Rotary International currently has over 10,000 Rotaract clubs with over 200,000 Rotaractors.
