Welcome to the Rotary Club of Corowa

Our Club was chartered on May 17th 1939 by the Rotary Club of Albury and we are the second oldest Club in Rotary District 9790.

We currently have 46 members and are actively working in promoting Polio Plus, which is aimed at eradicating polio world wide. We also support local community projects including school bursaries, adopt a highway clean-up program, exchange students and many more. In 2014 we took over organisation of the Federation Festival and started to reinvigorate the Federation monthly market and Federation (B&S) Ball. In 2016 we introduced Federation Dinner and Tim Fischer AM Oration to be held on the Friday of the Australia Day weekend and revived the Federation Parade.

2025 Federation Festival

2025 Federation Dinner and Tim Fischer Oration


Join us for a memorable three-course dinner as we celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the Tim Fischer Oration, honouring former Deputy Prime Minister Tim Fischer AC. We are delighted to welcome Judy Brewer, Tim's wife, as our guest speaker.

Judy, an officer of the Order of Australia (AO), is renowned for her distinguished service to individuals with disabilities, particularly those with Autism Spectrum Disorders, as well as to refugees in rural areas, women, and education. Living on her family farm in Mudgegonga, North East Victoria, Judy has a deep connection to the land and community.

Her advocacy and positive outlook in the face of challenges make this evening particularly inspirational. It’s a perfect start to a busy Federation Weekend!
