2.3 About Our Club
Auburn Daybreak Rotary

The Auburn Daybreak Rotary was chartered on February 14, 1995. While our special projects and activities change over the years, our mission has remained the same.  We are here to provide international service as well as service to our community.  Our currently emphasis is on the local community.

The Auburn Daybreak Rotary meets every Wednesday at 7:00 A.M. to 8:00 A.M. for breakfast and to hear a guest speaker.  If a member misses a meeting, they are required to make-up the meeting within two weeks before or after the scheduled meeting.
