The Burlington Rotary Club is a great way to discover the people and programs that make our community such a great place. Recent programs have included updates about the Burlington Area Homeless Shelter, and the annual Shop-With-A-Cop program organized by the Burlington Iowa Police Department. We also enjoy seasonal performances from groups such as the Burlington High School Jazz Band. Every speaker and organization gets is name in a book we donate to the Burlington Public Library. We meet weekly on Mondays at the Art Center of Burlington, and would be happy to have you join us for lunch, laughter and learning. Message the page, or email [email protected] to learn more.
