"Coming out of the pandemic, the Rotary Club of Watertown struggled with attendance at its weekly lunch meetings and events, but recently, the club’s membership has started growing.On March 28, three new members were inducted as Rotary Club members in a ceremony held at Demos Watertown: Diane DiMascio Cinar of CK Realty Group, Christian Dallas of Dallas Insurance, and Massimo Zeppa of Keller Williams Realty.
All three of the new members said that Rotary’s service mission attracted them.
“I am so happy to be a Rotary member,” said DiMascio Cinar. “I have lived in Watertown since 1957. I’m a retired teacher in the Watertown (and) Waltham public schools. I graduated from Watertown High, so happy to give back to the community where I have lived all along.”
Dallas said: “My family’s business has been in the Watertown community for close to 60 years or so, I am still pretty new to the area, I’ve been working here about two years, but since I’ve started everyone in the Watertown community has been very welcoming to me. I am happy to be here.”
Zeppa said he is grateful to the community that he grew up in.
“I am a lifelong resident. Watertown has given me so much, and finally my girlfriend inspired me to give back to the community that I am a part of,” Zeppa said. “For the rest of my life I will be giving back to Watertown because I don’t know where I would be without Watertown.”
