About Our Club
Sixty-one years following the formation of the first Rotary Club on February 23, 1905, twenty-seven men from Essex, interested in Rotary, under the sponsorship of the Rotary Club of Burlington, applied for membership on February 16, 1966, to Rotary International. The Rotary Club of Essex was Chartered on April 13, 1966.
At that time, the territorial limits included the communities of Essex Town and Essex Junction, Westford, Jericho, Underhill, Williston, Bolton, and Huntington. The Essex Club is proud to have been instrumental in helping to launch the Rotary Club of Grand Isle in 1989, and later the Rotary Club of Williston-Richmond in 1995. The present territorial limits include Essex Town and Essex Junction, Westford, Jericho, and Underhill.
