About this event

There are moments in life that remind us just how powerful service can be. This is one of them.

On May 17th, we invite you to join us for a celebration unlike any other—Rotary Club of Memphis Central’s 50th Anniversary Awards Dinner, an evening we’re calling “50 Years of Rotary: A Legacy of Creating Youth Services Magic."

Not the kind of magic found in tricks and illusions—but the kind that comes from showing up, year after year, for our youth, our city, and our world. That’s the kind of magic that lasts.


What You’ll Experience:

  • An uplifting celebration of Memphis youth, with scholarship and character achievement awards that spotlight tomorrow’s leaders.
  • A look back at five decades of impact, both here at home and around the globe.
  • A night of connection, inspiration, and community filled with meaningful conversation, great food, and unforgettable entertainment.
