## Welcome to First Coast Rotaract!
We are a group of young professionals in Jacksonville, Florida focused on service, friendship, and building community connections.
## Come Meet Us
We meet the 2nd Thursday of every month at Ruby Beach Brewing Company in downtown Jacksonville. Our meetings are filled with club updates, a guest speaker from the community, and much more! The meetings are followed by dinner in the area.
## Community Service
Giving back to our community is our main focus. We volunteer locally once a month and it’s a great way to get connected in Jacksonville. Our most recent service events include building with Habijax, cleaning the Emerald Trail with Groundworks Jax and North East Florida Sierra Club, and doing yard work for a homebound elderly woman through HartFelt Jacksonville…just to name a few.
## Social Events
Work hard, play hard! We also have a social event every month, which is a great time for everyone to get to know each other. A few of our latest social events include a destination meeting in St. Augustine for our annual retreat, cheering on the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp at Thirsty Thursdays, playing games at Leaderboard Arcade, our annual holiday parties, bowling, Riverside Arts Market, Cummer museum, and many more!
