The Rotary Club of Lake Nona Lunch is excited to announce that our first District 6980 Rotary Means Business “Red Carpet” event held on April 10 at Canvas was a huge success. More than 90 business entrepreneurs were in attendance. Rotary Means Business Fellowship provides Rotarians unique opportunities to meet business owners, network, and socialize with business leaders in the community. Rotary Means Business will host regular networking events, offer introductions with business owners, and share trends as well as patterns related to emerging markets. Businesses are always updating themselves…things change, times change, and Rotary Means Business was formed to help with this transformation. Business owners value their time. Rotary Means Business Fellowships provide smart, skilled and dedicated resources to maximize business connections.
Rotary Means Business encourages Rotarians to support the success of their fellow Rotarians by doing business with them and by referring other potential business leads. Rotarians embrace the foundations first established more than 100 years ago. Rotarians adhere to the Four-Way Test: Is it the truth? Is it fair to all concerned? Will it build goodwill and better friendships? Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
For over 112 years, commitments to adhere to the Four-Way Test have proven successful, indeed. Rotary is a global network of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders and problem-solvers who come together to make positive, lasting change in communities at home and abroad. On Feb. 23, 1905, Paul P. Harris, Gustavus Loehr, Silvester Schiele, and Hiram E. Shorey gathered in Loehr’s office for what would become known as the first Rotary club meeting. Harris’ desire for camaraderie among business associates brought together these four men and eventually led to an international organization of service and fellowship.
Special thanks to Canvas and its amazing staff and our corporate sponsors – J.P Capital Realty Inc., Nonahood News, and N&A Commercial Cleaning – for your unwavering support to Rotary.
Meetings are monthly and held at a business or residence of Rotary Means Business members. There are always plenty of great food and beverages.
