Del Mar – Solana Beach Rotary Hosts Successful Beers, Brats & BBQ Fundraiser 
The Del Mar – Solana Beach Rotary Club held its Beers, Brats & BBQ fundraiser on October 26th, partnering with Viewpoint Brewing Company to host the community event. Funds raised will support the Club’s local service projects as well as international humanitarian programs. The event brought together community members for a day of great food, local brews, and Rotary fellowship – all in the spirit of giving back. 
Our club had a wonderful day at the STEP (Support The Enlisted Project) event. Each month, STEP hosts a distribution event where essential items such as food, diapers, hygiene items and more are made available to military personnel, veterans, reservists, members of the National Guard, and their families. This was a special event that also included Halloween costumes for the young and old!
 
Come to our Solana Beach Blood Drive Spooktacular on 10/25 from 9:00-2:30 and receive a Disney "Vampire Mickey" T-Shirt.  Schedule an appointment at sandiegobloodbank.org/donate.

As the world's pioneer service club, Rotary International has a rich history dating back to 1905. With 34,000 clubs and 1.2 million Rotarians worldwide, Rotary leverages collective resources to tackle global challenges, from eradicating polio to promoting education and fostering peace.

Whether it's through our weekly Friday morning meetings, engaging in fellowship activities, or participating in our signature event, Lobsterfest, there's always an opportunity to have fun while making a difference.

Who do we serve?

 We're deeply involved in a diverse range of projects, from supporting local initiatives like Just in Time for Foster Youth and Casa de Amistad to international efforts such as the El Salvador Preschool and Community Center and India Women’s Home for Mental Health Care.
