Our Global Travelers E-Club is growing rapidly and becoming increasingly global. We have members across the United States, and we’re expanding across the globe. This geographic diversity gives us broader scope and a greater potential for impact, but it also means that we as members need to expend some effort to be informed, engaged, and connected.
As a member, new or old, we encourage you to make our mission your mission.
Our club uses an online database system called DACdb (District and Club database) to administer our club and help our members connect. As a new member, you should have received an email with a link to DACdb. The first time you log in, you’ll need to set a password.
Read more about getting started with DACdb here.
Many of us have worked remotely, during COVID or even before. We’ve learned the importance of having some personal information about your colleagues and a visual image. So give your fellow Global Travelers some information about you.
DACdb has a great member directory where you can find information about your fellow members and easily connect with them. Some information (like your email address) is populated automatically from your Rotary registration. You have the option to do more to help your fellow members get to know you, like uploading a picture and a short bio. Learn more here.
Global Travelers is our name. Global travel is in our blood. We love to travel. We love to plan trips. We love to learn about new places and meet new people. We love to read about travel.
If you aren’t already planning a trip with us, start thinking about it. We have ambitious trips (like 2+ weeks in Eastern Europe) and shorter, closer trips like Cuba and the Amazon. Check out our Where We’re Going page for ideas.
And share. You’ve no doubt taken some interesting trips, perhaps as part of a service project. Consider writing a short article with a couple pictures. Or perhaps you have some really great travel tips. Check out some of the stories on our home page for ideas. Send submissions to [email protected]
As members of Rotary Global Travelers, we are committed to investing our time, treasure, and talent to make a difference around the world.
We periodically have service opportunities associated with our trips. Or, we participate in internationally-focused service independent of travel. We also do several virtual service projects each year, serving the world together, separately
To thrive, our Club needs the talents of all of our members. As you attend meetings, browse our website, and connect with other members, think about ways that you can get involved. Consider joining one of the committees that manage the work of our Club.
Our ability to award grants and provide service are dependent on the generosity of our Club members and donors. Read more about our Global Travelers Foundation, The Rotary Foundation, and the grants that we have awarded.
We meet our fellow Rotarians. We meet people in the places we visit. We make the effort to engage.
Meeting people starts with joining the social part of our Zoom meetings (at 5:30 pm) whenever you are able. We split into small “rooms” so that you can chat with a few people and get to know them. We also hold an informal Thursday CONNECT zoom on the first Thursday of each month.
We schedule several in-person gatherings in various parts of the US and at international events several times during the year. Find out about future gatherings on the Where We’re Going Page.
You can also use the member directory in DACdb to find other members who live near you or live in an area you plan to visit. Learn more here.
