Welcome to Metro Bethesda Rotary!
We’re service-oriented. We’re energetic. We’re social. We come from many different backgrounds. We’re Metro Bethesda Rotary or MBR. We’re part of Rotary International, a worldwide network of inspired individuals who translate their passions into relevant service projects.
We welcome you to join us at one of our weekly meetings to learn more about our meaningful service projects, interesting weekly speakers, and fun social events. We are currently meeting at BT’s Bar & Grill at 4866 Cordell Ave., Bethesda on Thursdays from 7:30-9:00 AM (business meeting starts at 8:00 AM). Our meetings are hybrid, so a Zoom link is also available. Interested? Contact us for more info at membership@metrobethesdarotary.
“I joined MBR so I could work on service projects that benefit both local and international communities. It’s been an unexpected bonus to find a great new group of friends.”
Save the Date for the 2025 Purple Tee Golf Classic!
On Thu., Sept. 18, 2025, MBR will host our biggest fundraiser of the year, the 19th Annual Purple Tee Golf Classic! We hope you’ll join us this year at beautiful Whiskey Creek Golf Club in Ijamsville, MD, just a short drive from Bethesda. Golfers of all skill levels are invited to join us at this fun tournament! Even if you’re not a golfer, we’ll have games and activities. And for everyone, there’s an amazing Silent Auction along with plenty of food and beverages. As always, our tournament will support great nonprofit causes, including The Salute Military Golf Association (SMGA). We hope you and your friends and colleagues will join us for this fun day of golf, food, fundraising, and fellowship. More info coming soon!
