Meet Our President

Welcome to Pensacola Five Flags Rotary! Established in 1982, we are focused on the founding principles Paul Harris announced when he formed Rotary in 1905: “…so professionals with diverse backgrounds can exchange ideas and form meaningful, lifelong friendships.”  These friendships produce a better quality of life, a greater sense of community, and a number of charitable activities that improve our community and our world.  We are active, engaged, local, giving, and FUN!

I joined this particular club because it was clear they were close, focused on our local community and clearly had a lively and often irreverent sense of humor.  It reminded me of my time in the Ready Room!  We are 100 strong and growing.  Join us!
