Old Pueblo Rotary Club in Tucson AZ

05/06/2025

Today marks the end of an era. In December 2015, Old Pueblo Rotary Club merged with Saguaro Rotary Club to extend the lives of both smaller clubs. Over the last 10 years we have continued the Rotary vision of making a difference in our community. Though our vision will continue with strategic partnerships with the Flowing Wells Educational Foundation (poker tournament will continue to be held in the fall) as well as the Rotary Club of Tucson Sunrise (international project), Old Pueblo Rotary Club will officially dissolve at the end of June this year.

Yours in Rotary
Sarah LoRang
Treasurer & Club President 2019-2020

✨ **Sportsmans Fund and Interact!** ✨🏫

If you skipped Tuesday’s 7:30 meetup, brace for *FOMO-glowing regret*! 🔥

The Flowing Wells Interact Club *knocked it out of the park* (and the pep rally, senior trivia, and shelters!) sharing their

*Fab Five* feats: sparking school spirit, cracking pop culture quizzes with seniors, stitching love at Spreading Threads, serving meals at Primavera, and packing Tucson care kits like *community ninjas*! 🌟

Next up? They’re lacing up for the MS Walk, dancing through Richardson Fest, and *re-weaving* kindness—don’t *seam* stressed, just join!

Huge cheers to Interact stars Jeffrey Martinez and Celeste—y’all are *legends in student service*! 🏆

And a standing ovation for Pat Jessup (Arizona Daily Star Sportsmen Fund) for launching *sky-high dreams*—sending kids to camp **and** UA’s Sky School! That’s a *home run* for futures! ⚾⛰️

Heads up: No meeting next week—we’re *penciling in* extra hype for our next hangout! 🗓️ Catch you soon, or we’ll send a search party. 🔍😉

🍄✨ **Tuesday Was a Fungi Fest – And You *Spore-ly* Missed Out!** ✨🌵

John De Lorenzo of Desert Pearl Mushrooms had us *toadstool-in’* over with laughter and awe as he spilled the tea on growing gourmet magic in the desert—turning a humble aquaponics project into a 600-pound-a-week *shroom-pire*! 🌵💦
From low-water wizardry to community roots deeper than mycelium, we laughed, learned, and now regret that you missed this excellent presentation!
