Welcome to the Rotary Club of Corowa

Our Club was chartered on May 17th 1939 by the Rotary Club of Albury and we are the second oldest Club in Rotary District 9790.

We currently have 43 members and are actively working in promoting Polio Plus, which is aimed at eradicating polio world wide. We also support local community projects including school bursaries, adopt a highway clean-up program, exchange students and many more. In 2014 we took over organisation of the Federation Festival and started to reinvigorate the Federation monthly market and Federation (B&S) Ball. In 2016 we introduced Federation Dinner and Tim Fischer AM Oration to be held on the Friday of the Australia Day weekend and revived the Federation Parade.

2024-07-12 So Long, Annic!

 

Our wonderful exchange student has headed home! Annic Arnold embraced Aussie life the minute she arrived and has said “See Ya Later” to many friends and four generous host families. Travel safe & come back soon.

Annic was sponsored by E-Club Zentralschweiz in Switzerland and hosted by the Rotary Club of Corowa. She has been lucky enough to be travelling for the last month with her parents and leaves Australia today, Thank you to her host families and her friends at Corowa High School for such a great year.
