Veterans Day Recognition

Ronald E. Shoopman, USAF Brig Gen (ret) speaking on Veterans Unite our Nation

On Thursday, November 12th, The Rotary Club of SaddleBrooke recognized Veterans in a special Veterans Day Recognition. Members and guests enjoyed stories and words of wisdom from retired Brigadier General Ronald E. Shoopman. Shoopman encourage all Veterans to tell their stories. He also thanked The Rotary Club of SaddleBrooke for supporting the Veterans and First Responders Memorial, being developed in Oro Valley.

A Special Visitor

Mo Tangara, surprise guest

Mo Tangara graduated from and played basketball for the University of Arizona. Sponsored by Lute Olsen, Mo is retired from professional basketball and is mentoring kids in his home country of Mali. His first program called Malicats, builds schools for underprivileged kids in West Africa. Mo is giving back by offering kids a chance to go to school and play basketball in Mali. It was a treat to have Mo visit our meeting on Veterans Day.
