Emily Ellis-Onsager is taking La Crosse one old fashion at a time. 

We will hear about her life and how she has taken what was dealt her and changed and formed into a local politician....hopefully.

When Rotary was established by Paul Harris and three others, each person came from a different walk of life. This diversity is a cornerstone of Rotary. The intent is to have a cross-section of business and professional experiences in your community.

For decades Rotary International listed a range of professional “classifications” and restricted how many representatives of each could be in a club. This ensures that each club reflects the community in which it serves. It also reminds us to not have one profession as a dominant voice in our club. Over time, these restrictions have pretty much given way, but your classification continues to be of great interest to your fellow club members. That’s why your Rotary badge carries your name and your classification.

 

Classification talks help us learn about the life experiences and professional backgrounds of new members.
