The Rotary Club of Palos Verdes Peninsula hosted its first annual Rotary Responders Roundup on May 17, 2025, at the Empty Saddle Club in Rolling Hills Estates. Held in memory of longtime member Les Fishman, the Western-themed evening honored the heroic efforts of our local first responders, with special recognition given to the Palos Verdes Estates Police Department, Lomita Sheriff’s Station, and LA County Fire Department. The community came together in gratitude and celebration, showing support for those who serve and protect the Peninsula in times of crisis.
Guests enjoyed a lively night filled with Texas BBQ, live country music, line dancing lessons, Cow Pie Bingo, gaming tables, a no-host saloon, and a silent auction. The event was a tremendous success, raising funds for future Rotary service projects while celebrating the spirit of service and community. The Rotary Club extends heartfelt thanks to all who attended, supported, and helped make this unforgettable evening possible.
