Our Community Service

The Rotary Club of Boulder City prides itself on the amount of assistance we provide to our wonderful community.

From our mini-grants for special programs in the schools and services we provide to the senior community to our fundraising community events, such as the Best Dam Barbecue and July 4th Pancake Breakfast…not a month passes that we are not serving in our community in some way.
