Rotary Club of West Springfield

We are a service organization within the West Springfield / Burke community. The Club name was changed on December 18, 1996 to West Springfield Rotary Club.

Our club was founded on April 16, 1980 as the Springfield Breakfast Rotary Club with 25 members and met at the Springfield Howard Johnson's. Three charter members still attend our weekly meetings. In 1982, the club moved to a meeting facility at the Hunter Motel. Early in 1984 the Club began meeting at the Springfield Golf and Country Club where it still meets for breakfast followed by a timely program every Wednesday morning (excluding holidays) from 7:30 A.M. to 8:30 A.M. on the second floor.
