Club History
Port Orchard Rotary was formed in 1973-74.


"I wondered, "what the heck is a Rotary club?". Read more about the club's formation history according to Charter and Honorary Member Ken Paskett...

"...breakfast meetings were held at Gene Caldwell's Beachcomber Restaurant in the Westbay Shopping Center. At that time the Beachcomber was a thriving restaurant but the meeting area was small. The club soon outgrew the meeting area and moved to Tommy Myers' bowling alley. The club continued to grow and Frank Tweten joined. We then moved to Twetens and have been there for a long time." - Dick Peterson / member since 1984...

Women in Rotary

"If you are interested as a woman in joining a service club please consider the Pt. Orchard Rotary Club as well as the noon meeting club (South Kitsap Rotary Club). It is an excellent group of business owners, professionals, managers, supervisors and public spirited women and men who are proud of their community efforts."... more from Dan Phillips

"I believe that admitting woman to Rotary was one of the most progressive things the organization has ever done."... read more of Lary Coppola's thoughts regarding women in the club...
