The Wenatchee Rotary Club built two cabins at Camp Fire Girls Camp at Lake Wenatchee. The Club paid off remaining indebtedness on Scout A Vista. This gave clear title so buildings could be put up at the camp. At various times during the year clothing and medical care were given to needy children, including five tonsil operations, funded by Rotary.

Dues were raised to $20 which was 2/3 of pre-depression dues. There was a proposal to split the current district into two districts. The club secretary was instructed to send a letter to Rotary International opposing the split. The District Assembly was held in Wenatchee in August, 1936. The District Conference was held in Spokane May 2 to 5, 1937. The main speaker was Wil R. Manier, Jr., Rotary International President.

The regular meeting place of the club was the Columbia Hotel, but several meetings were held elsewhere such as the American Legion Hall and YMCA. Due to a lack of funds to bring in outside speakers, most of the programs were put on by the various committees of Rotary.

Rotarian Ray Michael was the Apple Blossom Festival Committee Chairman.
