By 2012, the Rotary Club of Vancouver has grown to 150 members who are representative of the diversity of ourcommunity.

Our members value giving back to their community, and are active in support of Rotary goals.

There is continued support for the corporate membership program.

Retention and mentorship are active and have improved member retention rates.

A family membership plan has been introduced.

Future considerations:

• Committee plan for future year is done
  
• Challenge each member to invite 3 prospects / year
  
• Follow through on prospects, assure contact info, include the Sgt. at arms to assure this follow through is done
  
• Grow the committee with new participants, raise profile
  
• Track member statistics re average age / % under certain age etc. as well as total members
  
• Committee budget to be established / increased
  
• Consider E club
