John Ficorilli
Welcome to the Rotary Club of Lima’s website.
Rotary is a global network of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change – across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves.
Our club was founded in 1915, and has contributed a lot to the Lima area. You might know us by one of our projects:
- Blood clinics
- Dictionary distribution
- Rex Perry Golf Outing that funds post-secondary scholarships
- Rotary Riverwalk
- Greater Lima Region Park & Amphitheater *NEW*
We also participate in global grant projects around the world.

To learn more about the Lima club, please visit us. Guests are always welcome. We meet at the Lima Veteran’s Civic and Convention Center every Monday from 11:45am to 1:00pm. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, we also offer online access to our meetings.
Our club is made of from individuals, young and old, from many walks of life. All are welcome. If you are looking to create change in the world and in our community, Rotary is for you. We’d love to have you join us.
