Centennial Playground

The grand-opening ceremony for the new City of Seminole and Rotary Club of Seminole Centennial Playground was held at 11:30am February 23, 2005.

The $174,500 playground, suitable for children ages 2 to 12, is at the Seminole Recreation Center, 9100 131st St. N. The project was funded by a state grant, a grant from both the Rotary Club of Seminole, Rotary District 6950, and the City of Seminole.

The facility is 100 percent handicapped accessible and features an artificial grass surface and equipment specially designed to be accessible for children in wheelchairs.

Back-To-School

The Rotary Club of Seminole helps to prepare students in need, attending Orange Grove Elementary School and Seminole Elementary School, by funding the purchase of clothes and school supplies at the end of summer.

Kids Appreciation Day

The Rotary Club of Seminole donates money and the Members donate time for this fun day of congratulations for a job well done to students in our community celebrating the final day of the school year. Our Club sponsors the watermelon eating contest where children complete to see who can eat their large slice of watermelon the fastest without using their hands.

Kids at Christmas

Each year in early December, along with the Interact Club of Seminole High School, we shop with for toys and other holiday gifts to benefit children in need that attend Seminole Elementary and Orange Grove Elementary Schools. We also provide grocery store gift cards to help their families to provide a special Holiday Dinner.

During the 2023 Holiday Season, by partnering with the Clear Sky on Park restaurant, we were also able to provide these families with 20lb turkeys to make that Holiday Dinner even more special.

Stop, Drop and Feed

In November, just before Thanksgiving, we head up a the Stop, Drop and Feed food drive benefitting the Interfaith Food Pantry in Largo. We collect nonperishable foods in order to help fill their shelves for the Holidays.

Toys in the Trunk

During the Holidays each year, our Club holds the Toys in the Trunk Toy Drive benefiting the Bardmoor YMCA. We collect unwrapped items for children in need that live in our local community.
