Rotary Club of Newcastle Enterprise
District 9670

​We are the result of a club merger in 2002 of two long standing clubs in the District. This club is fun, active, flexible and accessible for willing volunteers in Newcastle.


We usually meet on Tuesday evenings from 6:15pm (for 6:30 start) at Wests Leagues Club, Mayfield. For the latest meeting information and upcoming events, contact Diana Bridgman or access our Facebook page.
