Since 1986, the Lake Placid Noon Rotary Club has been raising funds to support organizations, agencies and people in Highlands County, Florida. Rotary...Service Above Self.
Since 2004, the Lake Placid Noon Rotary has hosted our primary fund raiser - the World Famous Wild Game Dinner. Held annually on the first Saturday in December, this event is one of Highlands County’s largest.
Tickets include all you care to eat, free beer and wine, free commemorative tee shirt, live music, silent and live auctions, door prizes, cash bar and more fun than you can imagine. Elite VIP admission is available and includes complementary premium bar and gourmet appetizers, as well as early entry into the event.
The Lake Placid Noon Rotary is proud to present local graduating seniors thousands of dollars in scholarships for continuing education.
Each year, local Rotary Clubs send veterans to Washington, DC to visit military memorials. In our club, the trip is entirely paid for by funds from the Wild Game Dinner.
We happily support the Dragon's Den, a food bank located at the Lake Placid Middle School. In addition to cash raised from the WGD, we host two collection events each year.
Located in heart of downtown Lake Placid, Rotary Park was established and is maintained by members. Wild Game Dinner funds provide planting supplies. A memorial brick project is also located there. If you would like to purchase a brick, click here.
Miracle League provides opportunity for disabled individuals to play ball. All equipment and uniforms are provided so athletes can play with assistance.
Each 4th grade public and private student in Lake Placid schools is given a student dictionary. For many, this is the first book they have ever owned.
These are just a few of the projects we support annually. We donate to Future Farmers of America, Youth Sports programs, student leadership training, and local veterans programs.
