On Wednesday, June 4th, Rotary Club of Tucson members took a break from the usual ballroom buzz of the TCC and instead gathered across Tucson for this month’s “Events Around Town.” With our regular venue temporarily unavailable, the club turned this scheduling change into an opportunity to mix things up—literally!
From sushi rolls on Broadway to Southern-inspired bites on Oracle, members came together in smaller, more intimate groups at five locally loved restaurants, each hosted by a fellow Rotarian. The venues—The Parish, Vera Amore, Sushi Cho, Noodleholics, and Doughbird—offered the perfect backdrop for meaningful conversations, laughter, and connections that can be hard to capture in a larger setting.
This format continues to be a favorite among members, offering a refreshing midweek pause that blends community spirit with Tucson’s diverse food scene. A big thank you to our June hosts: Mark Irvin, John Duval, Bobby Larson, Chuck Sawyer, Dot Kret, Dre Williams, and Bruce Jacobs. Your hospitality brought our club’s values of fellowship and service to life in a delicious and memorable way.
If you’re inspired to host one of these monthly gatherings, reach out to President Kurtis or the Rotary Office—we’d love to add your spot to the map! And don’t forget: we’re back at the TCC for our regular luncheon on June 11th. Until then, here’s to good food, great company, and strong Rotary ties.
