Our Club

The Plattsburgh Sunrise Rotary Club currently counts as its membership around 45 men and women who fervently believe in "Service Above Self."

 

We meet for breakfast every Tuesday at 7:30 a.m. The meetings begin on time and are finished at 8:30 - 8:45 so members can begin the rest of their day. The meetings are a mix of camaraderie, business and generally include a guest speaker from the local community.

 

As enjoyable as the weekly get-togethers may be, the most important facet of our membership is community service. Since its inception in 1987, the Club has donated thousands of dollars and hours to local and international causes. For more on our public service efforts, see Who We Help.

 

Our Connection With the Community
The Sunrise Rotary Club is located in the City of Plattsburgh in Northeastern New York about 60 miles south of Montreal, Quebec. We reside on the western shore of beautiful Lake Champlain and the club's connection with the lake is an important one. The Sunrise Club has been an integral part of The Mayor's Cup Festival — the City of Plattsburgh's largest summer event.

 

Mayor's Cup Festival & Regatta
The Club organizes and operates the Mayor's Cup Regatta, which is a major focus of the annual Mayor's Cup Festival & Regatta. Besides bringing together North Country residents in a family-oriented celebration of summer, the event helps to raise money for a variety of community causes.
