About our club
Paarl, renowned for its illustrious history and haunting scenery, is situated 57 km from Cape Town in the winelands of the Western Cape province of South Africa. It is dominated by mountain ranges and the large granite outcrop of Paarl Rock, after which our town is named. The first settlers in the 17th century called the rock the Parel (Dutch for pearl) for the way it glistened after rain.

President's Message
 
DEON ERASMUS
As one of the oldest Rotary clubs in District 9350, the Rotary Club of Paarl has built a tradition over more than 80 years of service above self to improve the quality of life for those communities that are less fortunate than ourselves.

You will find some interesting information regarding our activities on this website. I would also like to invite you to visit us at any time to share some fellowship at a meeting, or more importantly, to partner with us in improving the lives of those who find it difficult to help themselves. 
 
If you are interested in making closer contact, contact our club secretary (secretary @paarlrotary.co.za).
