Event Proceeds to Benefit Local Charities.

The Rotary Club of Vero Beach is the oldest Rotary club in Indian River County. It was Chartered in 1926 when Vero Beach only had 2,300 people.  The club has been involved in diverse community and international projects that have benefited our community and the world.  Recent philanthropic donations have assisted the Boys and Girls Club, the Special Equestrians of the Treasure Coast, Life for Youth Ranch, Gifford Youth Charities, Hibiscus Children’s Center and other local groups and foundations primarily serving youth.  However, we provide annual support to elder care including serving dinners to home alone seniors on Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter.   

The Club first met at the Royal Park Inn, a new and elegant landmark of the town. In the years that have followed, its 3,300 - odd meetings have been held in a number of locations, the second being the Community Church. Here the luncheon tab was 50¢ and the women of the church prepared and served the meals. Later high school students were given time off to come and serve the luncheon which the women prepared. In 1932, in the depths of the great depression, times were hard for the Club and its members. The Club was unable to meet its semi-annual international assessment and had to request an extension of time. The dues were also reduced to $1.00 a quarter. In 1936, the price of the Rotary luncheon skyrocketed to 60¢. In 1980, the tab was $5.00 at the Sheraton Regency. By 1989, the tab had reached $9.00 at the Vero Beach Inn, formerly Sheraton Regency.

The old Community Church was a handsome Spanish-style building, but it has been replaced by a more modern sanctuary. Similarly, the Royal Park Inn, which was also the scene of meetings in the 60's, and also a very handsome building, has been replaced by the modern Royal Park Condominium.
