Welcome to our Club!
A fabulous presentation of the new Ponte Vedra Concert Hall given by Dianya Markovits and Brian Johnston.
At the August 24, 2024 Vibrant Club Seminar, Palm Valley Rotary Club president Walther Vliegen officially received the club's 2023-2024 Rotary Citation for achieving goals that strengthen Rotary and the club, with Will Burke, Zanne Burke, Takiyah Lewis and PDG John Tabor.

Palm Valley Rotarians recently presented SAFE (Saving Animals from Euthanasia) with a generous donation made possible by their recent Caring for Kids Raffle Fundraiser. SAFE was founded in 2008 with the goal of rescuing animals from kill shelters where they are facing euthanasia. To date, SAFE, which operates entirely on donations and volunteer efforts, has rescued over 28,000 wonderful, precious pets who through no fault of their own became homeless. Each has a story, a heart and feelings, and deserves a chance to have the home they want so desperately. Among the other charities supported by the Palm Valley Rotary Club are Peace of Heart and Blessings in a Backpack, as well as many others.
Palm Valley Rotarians welcomed District Governor Elect Mickey Ulmer, who presented Club President Walther Vliegen with their EREY and Foundation Awards for the 2022-2023 Rotary year. Members look forward to a fun year with this DG!
Past Club President (and current Club Treasurer and Past District Governor - Red Bank, NJ) Horton Hickerson gave a flamboyant and mesmerizing presentation and 'quiz' on Ethics, which he also teaches at Rotary Leadership Institute!
