As the incoming President of the Rotary Club of Wauconda, my goals are revitalizing our club and building awareness of what we do and what Rotary is. Membership is vital to our organization; we want to build a club that's diverse, vibrant and reflects the spirit and ideals of our great community.
Wauconda is an ideal place to live and raise a family; and our members want to do their part through volunteering, fundraising, and community service, to give back to their neighbors. In Rotary we say "Service above Self," throughout this year and beyond we will exemplify that spirit.
If you would like to give back to the community and inspire our next generation to not only dream big but give big; join us. Together, we can move mountains.
It's not about being in the Rotary; it's about being a Rotarian.
Wauconda Forever!

The Rotary Club of Wauconda held its 8th annual Road Rally last Saturday, October 13th. It was a spectacular day! we had 9 cars and participants of all ages. The teams stopped at 8 businesses around the Wauconda area and at each stop performed a time task. They competed to get the lowest overall team time. We ended at the American Legion Hall where we had a meat raffle with terrific steaks, great for fall grilling. We would like to thank all the families and volunteers that made for a very memorable road Rally. See you next year! Bring a friend. The Rotary Club of Wauconda meets every Wednesday 7-8 AM at Wauconda Café, all are welcome. People of Action

The Rotary Club of Wauconda enjoyed a terrific game of baseball last Saturday. We were especially delighted to see a hometown Wauconda kid on the mound, Rich Mascheri. He pitched 6 innings for the win against the St. Paul Saints, the final score 12-4! We also enjoyed a great fireworks show after the game.
