Rotary Club: Rotary Club Teams Up with the Oracle Community Center

Barbara Barr and Wendy Guyton

Members of the Rotary Club of SaddleBrooke helped celebrate the return of the Oracle Community Center monthly lunches with a large grant for the community. The grant from the Rotary Club of SaddleBrooke will provide funding to renovate the kitchen and get new commercial appliances. The Rotary Club of SaddleBrooke also provided funding for the Oracle Community Center’s community emergency fund.

Incoming Club President Liese Razzeto, President Elect Gordon Wainwright, and Dan Watson enjoyed the community lunch, which is held at the Oracle Community Center on a monthly basis. Liese and Gordon presented a check from the Rotary Club of SaddleBrooke for the kitchen renovations.

This is just the beginning of projects that the Rotary Club of SaddleBrooke and the Oracle Community Center are planning together. The two organizations are also planning the first ever Fourth of July celebration for the children of Oracle. Each year, the program builds on the previous year as they develop the project.

Rotary International is the world’s largest volunteer organization, which is located in more countries than the Red Cross. Rotary members meet regularly for interesting programs and networking and gather in friendship to help with projects which make a difference locally, regionally, and globally. We also have social gatherings in the homes of our members.

The Rotary Club of SaddleBrooke is open to people who work or reside in SaddleBrooke, SaddleBrooke Ranch, Oracle, Catalina, Oro Valley, and the surrounding area. We are currently meeting in the boardroom of the Ranch House at SaddleBrooke Ranch. Each Thursday at 11:15 a.m., we gather for a delicious meal, fellowship, and an interesting program. If this sounds of interest to you, we’d love to have you visit our club and get to know our friendly members. If you would like more information or you would like to visit our Rotary Club, contact Wendy Guyton at 520-404-5712 or [email protected].
