Interact & Rotaract: Year In Review
Rotary Club of Tucson has sponsored the Amphitheater Interact Club and Rotaract Club of the University of Arizona for the past five years.  We have provided financial support as well as advisors to both clubs.  We share sponsorship for the UofA Rotaract Club with Sunrise Rotary.
 
Interact and Rotaract are unique in that they only meet during the school year.  Meetings tend to start in late August and end in May each year.  It is amazing how much these two clubs accomplish every year given the limited time they have.
 
The club structures are basically the same as our club.  Each club has a President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, Sergeant at Arms and various directors.  Club Elections typically take place during April.
 
Today the clubs will present their Year in Review.  I am sure you will all be surprised by how much they accomplish every year.

WELCOME TO THE ROTARY CLUB OF TUCSON!
2018 TCCS Chair, Bruce Jacobs
Jim Murphy, TCCS 2017 Chair, formally turned the reins over to the 2018 TCCS Chair, Bruce Jacobs, at a recent TCCS Strategic Leadership Team meeting. 
 
Jim held up the weathered cardboard box containing items significant to the Chairmanship and noted that the Foundation spared no money or creativity in obtaining the box, to hold these precious items.
 
The first item presented to Bruce was a water gauge, not relevant except in Roger Harwell’s year, and hopefully never again.  Second, was the very rusted gas can and Jim noted that much like the gas that powers the engine, the Chair is the force fuels a successful car show.  The last item was red heart pillow to which Jim said in giving it to Bruce that the TCCS Chair has to have a big, wonderful heart if he/she is to spend the time and effort in leading the car show effort.  Everyone again applauded Bruce for taking on this important and significant task.
 
Now fully engaged as the 2017 TCCS Chair, Bruce has all of the tools necessary to be successful.
