Welcome to the Juneau Glacier Valley Rotary Club!
We are pleased to have you as a new member of the Juneau Glacier Valley Rotary Club. Your induction to the club is just the first step of a very important orientation process designed to quickly acquaint you with other members, as well as the operations of the club and Rotary in general. The sooner you are fully engaged as a member, the sooner your commitment to the ideal of “Service above Self” can be employed.
With that goal in mind, we have devised what we call “the Badge Pass Process”. You have been issued a RED BADGE as part of your induction to the club, which identifies you as a new member and encourages current members to assist you with your orientation to Rotary. You will use this Red Badge until you have completed all the orientation items listed below, at which point the Red Badge will be exchanged for your permanent BLUE BADGE. While schedules will influence the time frame, your goal should be to complete the Badge Pass tasks in 60 days or less.
You are not alone in this mission. Your sponsor, club officers, and Badge Pass chairman will assist with scheduling the various tasks. Your progress will be tracked along the way, but when all tasks are completed you need to complete the form on the other side of this page indicating the dates each task was completed along with other requested information. You and your sponsor need to sign the form and then deliver it to the Badge Pass Chairman, Craig Dahl. At the next scheduled meeting you will receive your permanent blue name badge and your blue fleece vest and take your place amongst the membership prepared to welcome other new members to the Glacier Valley Rotary Club.
If you have questions please feel free to contact Sheri Vidic, Badge Pass Chairman: ; 907-523-4118 (W) or 907-723-9910 (C), FAX 907-789-9847.
