Annual Fee Structure & Membership Options
2023-2024 Annual Fee Structure & Membership Options
To make Waukesha Sunrise Rotary Club membership as affordable as possible, we offer the membership/fee options below. All fees below cover the entire year. Membership fee totals are billed by, and paid directly to, Waukesha Sunrise Rotary Club. RI and District dues are then paid by our Club Treasurer.
NOTE: Rotarians are not billed in advance for meals. We have a pay-as-you-go policy, allowing the flexibility to order from a limited version of The Machine Shed breakfast menu each week.
Standard Individual Membership:
Annual Rotary International ($99.30) + District dues ($35.00) + Club Dues ($90.00) = $224.30
Rotary International dues include a subscription to the monthly Rotarian magazine
First Year Members:
To minimize entry-level costs for new Rotarians, we don’t assess Club dues during the first year of membership, a savings of $90/year. So first year cost is $134.30 plus meal purchases. Assessment of Club dues begins with the second year of membership. There is also a one-time Admission charge of $25 assessed to new members to cover initial processing and material costs.
Shared Membership:
Allows "related" individuals (e.g., co-workers, spouses, or siblings) to share Rotary membership. The primary member pays at the Standard Membership rate above. Additional members of the shared group each pay only RI and District annual dues ($134.30 each).
A note about meal cost at weekly meetings:
The Machine Shed requires a $200.00/week minimum payment from our Club to help cover service and facility costs. We ask that all Club members generally order more than just a beverage at our weekly meeting to insure we reach that minimum and avoid the assessment of additional fees for use of the meeting room.
General Membership Guidelines: The maximum benefit of membership is best attained by participation in as many Rotary meetings and activities as possible. While not required, all Rotarians are encouraged to make a gift of $100 to the Rotary Foundation annually.
