One of the most significant impacts on Rotary membership growth, engagement and retention during 2021 will be the way every Rotary club shifts from primarily virtual club meetings to Hybrid Meetings (a combination of members meeting in-person and virtually). Just as clubs effectively pivoted to virtual meetings, the next opportunity is to prepare for the in-person/virtual hybrid experience. As the pandemic declines, and more are vaccinated, many members will want to gather again. The Hybrid Meeting model honors and serves both groups … those who wish to meet in person and members most comfortable attending virtually.
All resources associated with planning effective hybrid club meetings are located on our website's Hybrid Club Meetings page. That page is being updated frequently as our Region 36 Hybrid Club Meeting Planning Committee is identifying new and/or updated best practice resources. It is listed on our home page menu under Other Resources.
