Dear Members of the Rotary Club of Tucson,It is with great pride that I serve as the president of our club, the best club! It is hard to believe that one quarter of the Rotary year has already passed us by, but I am excited to see all that we have already accomplished and look forward to the opportunities that lie ahead.
I would like to take a moment to recognize the incredible work that our program committee has done in bringing a diverse range of engaging programs to our meetings. From speakers on important community issues to informative presentations on international service projects, each program has been thoughtfully curated to inspire and educate our members. For more information on upcoming programs, be sure to visit tucsonrotary.org.
Additionally, I encourage all members to participate in our Second Wednesday events around town. These monthly lunches bring members together in small groups at various restaurants across Tucson, providing a wonderful opportunity for fellowship and networking. It is a great way to connect with fellow Rotarians outside of our regular meetings and build lasting relationships within our club. Thank you to those members who have coordinated the reservations at local restaurants. If you want to host one, please let Dorinna know. Our next second Wednesday lunch will be on October 9th.
As we prepare for the Tucson Classics Car Show, I want to emphasize the importance of this event. Not only does the car show enable us to support our beneficiaries, but it also brings us together as a club as we volunteer and work towards a common goal. Thank you so much for all of you that make the show so incredible every single year. I encourage you to sign up to volunteer if you haven’t already, keep selling tickets, maybe find a sponsor, and help make this year's car show a success.
Finally, I urge you to get engaged in our club through our fellowships, service projects, and, of course, our Wednesday meetings. Your involvement and dedication are what make our club truly special, and I look forward to seeing all that we can accomplish together in the coming months. Again, go to the Club website and check the calendar for all the information on fellowships and upcoming service projects.
Thank you for your continued support and commitment to the Rotary Club of Tucson. Together, we can continue to make a difference in our community and beyond. That is the magic of Rotary!
Sincerely,
Kurtis Dawson
President 2024-2025
Rotary Club of Tucson
