Rotary is an international service organization of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers working to make our communities and the world a better place. We're a group of local professionals and residents who meet weekly to build a stronger Hastings community through the strong principles of Rotary International. Our diverse membership includes those from local businesses, government, education, healthcare, media, and nonprofits, among other organizations.

A few of our other activities of significant local impact by the club include:

• Raised more than $500,000 to build this beautiful pavilion as the foundation for the Hastings riverfront redevelopment.
  
  
• Refurbished the Vermillion Falls River Bridge and adopted the bike path system throughout Hastings, providing all of the signage.
  
  
• Provides high school scholarships and awards the Student of the Month.
  
  
• Established and operates Hastings Rotary Fishing, each year taking more than 900 seniors out on the Saint Croix River for fishing and boating excursions.
