Community Involvement

Yes, the 80s were totally tubular, but we don’t dress like this every day! Our team took this photo in 2021 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of serving our Delmarvelous community.

Flags for Heroes

May 31, 2021 – Memorial Day Lord Baltimore Elementary School - Ocean View, DE

Over $12,000 was raised for Southern Sussex Rotary’s 7th annual Flags for Heroes, the culmination of months of fundraising leading up to Memorial Day. 133 locally sponsored heroes were named by 38th District Representative Ron Gray and Delaware State Treasurer Colleen Davis during the Presentation of Heroes. In addition, during the event, attendees enjoyed patriotic music from the IRHS Brass Ensemble and a speech by special guest Lieutenant Colonel John Fisher. The ceremony was also supported by Cub Scout Pack 280 and Boy Scout Troop 281. Southern Sussex Rotary will raise flags again for the 20th anniversary of 9/11. More information about Southern Sussex Rotary and the donations made from this event can be found online: SouthernSussexRotary.org and Facebook.com/SouthernSussexRotary

Coastal Delaware Community Cleanup | Delaware Center for the Inland Bays

The weather wasn’t quite as good as last year, but we did avoid the rain this year. We’re still waiting to hear the final weight of the trash we pickup up on the 20th, but it sure felt like a lot!
