Our meetings are held at the Holiday Inn Hotel, Dumfries and involve a range of club visits, interesting speakers and good fellowship as well as online meetings via Zoom when required. Check our calender for forthcoming meetings.
Service to the community requires our Rotarians to devote their time, energy and professional skills to particular projects. This often involves fundraising to provide charities with financial support but this is not our Clubs first aim. Our emphasis is on personal service.
Recent club news: We are now in summer recess but with lots of Club activities still planned including our Am Am Golf Tournament at Southerness Golf Club on 14 August 2026.

(Meet on 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month. Meal only on 3rd Thursday.)
