Our Food Fellowship Fiesta:  
SATURDAY
OCTOBER 10th - 8 AM California Pacific Daylight Time

Ceviche is delicious… and if you dont like “fish” there's alternatives

Chilled rice-based beverage -

SOOOOO GOOD

This is such a simple but unexpected crowd pleaser

President's Message for October 2026
I get inspired by all that our club does!  For example, our new Food Fellowships.
 
A few weeks ago, Elly, our member in the Netherlands, shared with us how to make diabetic pancakes, using almond flour.
 
On Saturday, October 10th, at 8 AM California Pacific daylight time, our Rotary Club had our second special food fellowship meeting. As you can see by the above images, we are pleased to have Marcos Nava. 
 
Marcos lives in Roswell, New Mexico, but he was born in Guadalajara. I’ve known Marcos through multiple careers.  Marcos owned a chain of branded restaurants and I helped him with some photographs years before that while we were in scouts together I also took photographs of Marcos and the Great program we had at the Fairview State Hospital. Another photo session that I remembered with Marcos was when he had Steve’s restaurant in downtown Santa Ana. And then I have many photographs of our 35 year career together in the Boy Scouts of America.
 
Marcos will be sharing his recipes for Mexican ceviche, the rice based beverage that is so delicious called Horchata, and then everyone’s favorite dip for their tortilla chips: guacamole!
 
The purpose of these meetings is just to have fun. Oh, and also to get to know each other. Oh, and to get people to take a look at our website and maybe consider being a Rotarian… but fellowship first is our primary goal as a club. 
 
Buenos noches o tardes or días depending on your time zone.
 
Oh and the picture on the side panel… that's my grandkids a few years back during Halloween.
 
Cheers!
 
President Ron

ABOUT OUR E-CLUB
As e-club members, we participate fully in Rotary life, enjoying the camaraderie and fellowship with other members and visitors through our get-togethers online. We are  a regular club except we meet online, so we can join in from anywhere worldwide. Our club is perfect for Rotarian globetrotters and those who live too far from a traditional club to attend regularly. Everyone is welcome! 

Our members come from all over the world, giving us access to an international network of friends and fellow Rotarians! And we meet each other individually whenever the opportunity arises. 
 

To communicate with each other we use the following:

  • Whatsapp to communicate with each other in group chats and telephonically.
  • ClubRunner, where we maintain our member profiles, and where our E-Club documents and our member contact list can be accessed.
  • Zoom, where we conduct our club meetings. It is very easy to use, we send you a link with a passcode to enter the meeting. You will need a device that has a camera to be able to get the best possible experience!

Backpacks and School Supplies for Cabo San Lucas in Mexico.
In September 2021, at the beginning of the school year, we delivered 50 backpacks and school supplies to second-grade students of the Amelia Wilkes Ceseña Elementary School located in Cuatro De Marzo neighborhood in Cabo. This was led by Rotary Eclub of One World and the Principal and staff from the school. The project has been so successful that we decided to do it again in September 2023.

Is it too difficult to regularly attend an in-person meeting? Are you traveling often? Have a mobility issue?But want to continue being a Rotarian? Then our E-club may be the solution for you!  If so, we would love to hear from you.
 
The easiest way to find out if this option is a good one is to email us to request a link to one of our Fellowship meetings so that we can get acquainted. If our club seems like a good fit, fill out an application to get the application started. We would love to hear from you!
