Do you want to be a part of something big? Do you want to make a difference in Placerville and around the globe? If you answered "YES" then Rotary is for you.

Rotary needs you. And you need Rotary.

Rotary builds leaders that make things happen. Through fellowship we build connections throughout the community and our lives.

Our service projects address community needs (Rotary Park, Downtown benches, metal art along Highway 50).
Our weekly programs are informative and dynamic (Local musicians, the El Dorado Arts Council, Heritage Flyers, local political leaders, King Fire reforestation).
Our events are always fun (Lobster on the River, Bon Voyage Ball).

Talk to a Rotarian or just join us. Members start gathering at 5:30 and meetings start at 6:15pm at The Smith Flat House, Placerville. If we aren't there, we are working to make Placerville a better place.

Lobster on the River 2018

Thank you to all for making our Lobster on the River event a great success. It was great seeing Hangtown Little League families, fellow Rotarians, and the community at large supporting our effort to put in a batting cage at Rotary Park. We netted over $9,000 for the project and are well on our way to getting the batting cage installed.

The Placerville Community has lost an icon. Joe Stancil passed away recently but left a legacy of making the community a better place.

RESULTS FROM 2017 LOBSTER ON THE RIVER

During its 11th year, Placerville's biggest and best Lobster feed, Lobster on the River, raised more than $8,000 for community organizations. The event is the largest fundraiser for the Placerville Rotary club.

“We’re thrilled at the results of this year’s event and can’t wait to start using this money to make our community and world better,” said event chair Cher Williams. Rotary Club of Placerville distributes all proceeds to local and global services projects. In its 2015-2016 fiscal year, the club gave more than $5000 to organizations and projects such as the Rotary Park, Signs for Highway 50, and Boys and Girls Club. Globally, Rotary is committed to eradicating polio worldwide. Along with its partners, such as the Gates Foundation, Rotary has reduced polio cases by 99.9 percent worldwide since its first project in 1979.

The 2017 Lobster on the River party featured lobster from Cousins Maine Lobster, BBQ from All Star Que and ice cream from Rich's Ice Cream Catering. Live music provided by The Random Strangers.

The 2018 event is on 22 September at Lotus Henningsen Park featuring music from the Random Strangers and Cousins Maine Lobster. Tickets are available on-line (site coming soon) and from Placerville Rotarians.
