🎉 What a year… and what a celebration! 🎉

On Thursday, June 18, the Rotary Club of Amelia Island Sunrise proudly installed its 2026-2027 Officers and Directors. As is tradition, we looked back on the past year with a video highlighting the incredible impact and fellowship that make our club so special.

A huge thank you to Past President Mary Valenta and her outstanding team for leading such an amazing year. What a journey! ❤️💙💛

🎥 Watch this video (created by Bob Eberle) and see the difference we've made, the lives we've touched, and the fun we've had together.

Want to be part of something bigger? We'd love to have you! Join us for breakfast any Friday and experience the fellowship, service, and friendships that make Rotary so rewarding.

We were delighted to welcome local author Beth Brubaker as our recent Rotary speaker!

Beth shared the fascinating story behind her third novel in a historical fiction series inspired by her own family history. Her presentation brought the past to life and gave us a glimpse into the research, memories, and personal connections that shaped her latest book.

If you missed her talk, you have another opportunity to meet Beth and learn more about her work at her Book Launch Event:

📍 Holy Grounds Coffee Shop
📅 June 12
⏰ 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

Even better, Beth is generously donating 10% of all book sales from the event to Barnabas, helping support neighbors in need right here in our community.

Please join us in supporting a talented local author and a wonderful local cause. We hope to see you there!

What a Friday morning at Rotary! John and Michael were celebrated for receiving yet another Paul Harris award for their support of the Rotary Foundation! Our featured speaker Jerry Pryor delighted us with stories from his recent mountain mountain climbing expedition to Mt Aconcagua and Brian pulled the lucky 50-50 card!

A little dirt under the fingernails and a lot of heart behind the work. 🌱❤️

This week, a group of Rotarians rolled up their sleeves at Micah’s Place to help clean up and refresh their garden area. From pulling weeds and trimming plants to hauling mulch and tidying flower beds, it was a true team effort — and a reminder that small acts of service can make a big difference.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to support the important work being done at Micah’s Place and help create a welcoming, peaceful space for the women and families they serve.

Service Above Self in action! 💙💛

Sometimes Service Above Self can also be self-serving. Our members had a blast selling Shrimp Festival shirts as the Swinging Medallions played in the background.

Visit us for our next meeting this Friday at the Fernandina Beach Golf Course clubhouse at 7:30AM.

What a fantastic day at the Shrimp Festival Parade! 🦐🎉

Rotary Clubs of Nassau County had an incredible time walking together, celebrating our community, and sharing smiles with the amazing crowds along the route. From waving to familiar faces to meeting new friends, the energy and support were unforgettable.

Even more exciting- we’re proud to share that our group took 1st place in the Non-Profit Division! 🏆

A special highlight was walking united with our fellow local clubs-showing what service above self looks like when we come together. Congrats to the Fernandina Beach Club as they celebrate 100 years of service in Fernandina!

Thank you to everyone who cheered us on—we loved every minute of it! 💙 Interested in what it's all about? Visit one of our clubs!

Together, We… Make an Impact! 🎥

Rotarians—new and seasoned—recently gathered at the Inkwell Art Bar for a lively New Member Meet-Up full of fellowship and learning. We covered club governance, budgets, the Rotary Foundation & Paul Harris recognition, District Grants, and more. Everyone left with a better understanding of how Rotary works… and plenty of smiles!

A huge thank you to our Membership Chair, Jerry Pryor, for making this event happen, and to Bob Eberle from Big Cookie Production for capturing all the highlights in this amazing video.
