We are proud to represent our Rotary Club today at the biannual Human Trafficking Summit. Thanks to DA Summer Stephan, San Diego County leads other cities and states in the fight against Human Trafficking and in implementing the Survivor model. Hearing about the struggles for Justice in other states who are trying to accomplish what our county has already accomplished makes us grateful. Thank you to Therese Cisneros Re*****on for spearheading this summit every year

Here’s a sneak peek at the Rotary float design for the 2027 Rose Parade!

🌹🐢𝑾𝒆𝒍𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒂 𝒃𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒇𝒖𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆.

Introducing Rotary’s 2027 Rose Parade Float: “Where Communities Bloom”

On January 1, 2027, Rotary has the opportunity to share a powerful message with millions watching around the world:

𝑾𝒉𝒆𝒏 𝒑𝒆𝒐𝒑𝒍𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐𝒈𝒆𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒕𝒐 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒕𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒆𝒕, 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝒃𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒎.

This year’s float features a thriving village carried by a giant tortoise — a beautiful symbol of the connection between a healthy planet and strong communities.

It is a celebration of Rotary members as 𝐏𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 — restoring ecosystems, improving water quality, protecting natural resources and advancing sustainable solutions that help communities thrive for generations to come.

Now, it’s time for Rotary to help bring this float to life. Rotary clubs, districts and members can be part of the journey by becoming an Ambassador Club, sponsoring the float, dedicating a rose, volunteering, decorating or supporting the riders and walkers who will help carry Rotary’s message down Colorado Blvd. on New Year’s Day.

Learn how you can get involved at rotaryfloat.org/get-involved or make a donation at http://rotaryfloat.org/donate

Together, let’s help Rotary bloom on Colorado Blvd.
