Rotary clubs, which have a reputation of being "friendly clubs", usually follow a few simple steps. First, members are encouraged to sit in a different seat or at a different table each week. Second, Rotarians are urged to sit with a member they may not know as well as their long-time personal friends. Third, members invite new members or visitors to join their table just by saying: "Come join us, we have an empty chair at this table." Try it this week.
