The Rotary Club of Palatka kicked off Veterans Day with a mission: keep our heroes hydrated during the annual Veterans Day parade. But when Mother Nature delivered a brisk 39 degrees instead of Florida sunshine, we called an audible. Water at the start line, and steaming hot coffee and cocoa at the finish line—because if you can’t beat the chill, you warm hearts instead.

A huge thank you to all our club members who braved the cold to support our local heroes, share fellowship, and make a difference in our community. Your dedication embodies the Rotary spirit of “Service Above Self.”
