Rotary Club of Nashua West
The Rotary Club of Nashua West began in 1971. Today it has over 90 members, who are business and community leaders. The mission of Nashua West is to direct the energy of our membership toward improving the lives in our community and the world.
Throughout the year we hold events to raise money so we can give back to the community. Our different events range from a Spaghetti City dinner we hold at the Senior Center in October. We buy and give away hats and mittens in December as well as over 75 gifts to the local children for Christmas morning so they to have something under the tree. Father's Day weekend we hold the best event in NH "Rotary Rock'n Ribfest" at Anheuser-Busch in Merrimack NH, and we take applications for scholarships and for donations to different non-profits in the community. The proceeds from all of our events go back to the community in many different ways.
Our Rotarians volunteer their time for all the events we hold throughout the year. This past Saturday, October 18th, 2014 we road and walked along a float we built with another club called Nashua Rotary in the 1st Annual Gate City Fall Festival and Parade. We had many Rotarians come out to take part in building the float, riding on it and walking next to it. We also manned the float at the festivities at Holman Stadium.
One event we held during one of our lunch meetings was packing thousands of meals (11,826 to be exact) on September 23rd. Thanks to End Hunger New England these meals will go to hungry folks in Hillsborough County!

If you would like more information about our club stop by any Tuesday at 12:15 and enjoy a lunch with us at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, 2 Somerset Parkway. We look forward to having you and enlightening you on a great group of individuals called "Rotarians"!
