Celebrate a century of community impact. Since 1926, Coronado Rotarians have lived by the motto “Service Above Self,” shaping the spirit of Coronado island and improving lives across the globe.
This landmark Centennial exhibit offers an exclusive look into the Rotary Club’s storied history, featuring never-before-seen photographs, artifacts, and personal stories. The exhibit highlights the decades-long partnership between Rotary and the Coronado Historical Association (CHA), a collaboration that was formalized in 2024 when CHA was designated as the official repository for the club’s historical records. By moving these treasures from private garages into CHA’s professional archives, 100 years of “Service Above Self” is protected and accessible for generations to come.
The archives and artifacts in the exhibit show how a century of dedication has nurtured the civic and cultural fabric of Coronado, from local youth programs to international humanitarian efforts. See why the Rotary Club remains a cornerstone of our community.

The Green of West Plaza: 90+ Years of The Coronado Lawn Bowling Club celebrates over 90 years of the Coronado Lawn Bowling Club (CLBC) with an emphasis on its history, community involvement, and contribution to the sport of lawn bowling. The bilingual English/Spanish exhibit features trophies and medals won by members of the CLBC, highlighting the skill and sportsmanship that women and men have excelled at both on a national and international level.
To complement the successes of the club, the exhibit explains the game of lawn bowls along with the equipment used. Very little equipment is necessary to play bowls, making it an accessible sport for all demographics. Lawn bowling is one of the few sports that allows women and men to compete together on an equal platform regardless of age.

Coronado Job Fair

Coronado residents in need of employment will have an opportunity to meet directly with local businesses at the free Coronado Job Fair on April 22. Now in its third year, the fair continues to expand to address need on the island.
The fair is open to job seekers of all ages and experience levels. Retired residents and seniors are encouraged to participate as a way to apply their decades of professional experience, stay engaged in the community, make new friends, and earn supplemental income.
The Coronado Job Fair comes at a time when numerous residents are looking for work following government downsizing and amid rising costs for housing, food, utilities and healthcare. The event will take place in the Winn Room at the Coronado Public Library and is meant to connect Coronadans with jobs close to home. Four of Coronado’s resorts and about a dozen Coronado businesses will have hiring representatives available to discuss current openings and collect resumes.
Event hours have been adjusted this year (noon-4 pm) to fully accommodate students from Coronado High School, allowing them to explore summer employment opportunities with local employers.
“We want this event to open doors for residents at every stage of life,” said Claudia Ludlow, Interim Chair of Discover Coronado. “Whether someone is looking for their very first job, returning to the workforce, or looking to stay active in retirement, the Coronado Job Fair connects our community with real opportunities right here at home.”
The April 22 Coronado Job Fair is open to the public and attendees are encouraged to bring multiple copies of their resumes. More details can be found at DiscoverCoronado.com.
