John Reid

I am truly humbled by this opportunity to serve. Rotary International is 114 years old and Potomac Club is 59 years old this year. Rotary must be doing something right for over a century to attract raving fans like Bill Gates as well as Ashton Kutcher. It has evolved more in the last 5 years than in the previous 100 years. Now our focus is more on engagement over attendance so we welcome you to join us as we strive to make sure it represents the Potomac Community well. I invite you to consider the Potomac Rotary for your social and service fulfillment. Rotary is the only NGO with a seat at the UN; because of its shared vision for peace and the critical humanitarian activities around the world. The job is big enough and there is work for everyone. There is no money in Rotary work but it’s worth a fortune.
I aspire to make our club as diverse as the Potomac community while attracting more female members as well. 2 years ago we launched a 40 under 40 program to make Rotary membership attractive for the younger members in our community. Our club presently has members ranging from 35 to 85 years young. Potomac Rotary Club is offering membership scholarships for Potomac Area High School teachers. To learn more, feel free to email PotomacRotaryClub@gmail.com. or give us a call 202-288-0854. Yours in Rotary Service!

For patients who lack options, a virtual visit can mean the difference between going with or without care
In communities with no services, incremental steps can go a long way

When Rotary members tried to bring toilets to a remote island, the population wasn’t ready.
The future: What can we expect when we get there?

As we stand at the threshold of the third decade of the 21st century, imagine where we’re
Why Rotarians should engage with program alumni

When clubs cultivate relationships with Rotary alumni, both sides benefit.
The sad truth about altruism is that there aren’t enough altruists

The people who fill the truly essential roles in society are often in short supply
