New Rotaract Club Launches at SJR State

We proudly celebrate the official charter and induction of the newly-formed Rotaract Club at St. Johns River State College in Palatka — sponsored by the Rotary Club of Palatka.
The event kicked off with a warm welcome from Dr. Joe Pickens, President of SJR State, followed by greetings from Rotary Club of Palatka President Gina Sims and Rotary District 6970 Governor Dale Moe. Past District Governor Mickey Ulmer led the charter presentation and induction of charter members.

Although the club was officially chartered on April 22, 2025, the celebration was postponed until the fall semester to ensure full student participation—and it was worth the wait!

Congratulations to the inaugural board:

Jaylah Rasher, President
Tamia Wiggins, Vice President
Addison Kirby, Secretary
Gary Denmark, Treasurer

Special thanks to club advisors Jarvis Wright and Yvette Jones for their guidance and support.

Welcome to the Rotary family, Rotaract SJR State! Here’s to building friendships, leadership, and service together.
