He became an Honorary San Marcos Rotarian after speaking about his plans for the University. Rotary invited Kiwanis and Lions Club officers so it was a packed house.

Let the slime begin!Students at Travis Elementary in San Marcos had a fundraiser to collect money for a Travis Scholarship that would be awarded in the spring to a San Marcos high school senior who had attended Travis. The students raised $750 for the scholarship. The two classes who raised the most money got to "slime” the Principal, Mr. Macini, and Asst. Principal, Mrs. Voigt. Since the Rotary Club of San Marcos matches the money raised by students, bringing the total amount of the scholarship up to $1,500, the Early Act students allowed the Rotary Club adviser, Ben Duncan, to "slime" the Principals as well.   |

San Marcos Rotary: People of Action |
What happens at Rotary meetings?What happens at Rotary meetings? Rotary meetings open to the public and visitors are always welcome. Meetings begin with an invocation, the Pledge of Allegiance, and a recitation of the Rotary 4-Way Test of the things we think, say or do: 1. Is it the truth? 2. Is it fair to all concerned? 3. Will it build goodwill and better friendships? 4. Will it be beneficial to all concerned? Half of the meeting is a program on a different topic each week. In the past year we had programs about Habitat for Humanity, School Fuel, Hays County Food Bank, the Rotary Early Act program at Travis Elementary, Crime Stoppers, Texas State Greek Life service programs, the Hays County Sheriff’s Department, Twilight 127, building sandcastles, the international effort to eradicate polio and more. Several new members of the club introduced themselves to us by sharing information about their professional, personal and Rotary lives. And we discussed upcoming Rotary community service projects and gave checks to local nonprofits and to high school seniors to whom we awarded scholarships. Rotary is nonprofit, nonpolitical, and nonreligious. Our motto is Service Above Self. Rotary began in 1905 in Chicago. The San Marcos Rotary Club was chartered 100 years ago on December 1, 1921. There are 1.4 million Rotarians in 34,000 clubs in 200 countries around the world. San Marcos is in Rotary District 5840, which includes 57 clubs in South Central Texas. smtxrotary.com rotary.org smtxrotary@gmail.com |

Dr. Steven Beebe Speaks to Rotary About New C.S. Lewis BookDr. Steven Beebe speaks to the Rotary Club of San Marcos about his new book about author C.S. Lewis on Wednesday, September 7 at noon. The book, titled “C.S. Lewis and the Craft of Communication” is a comprehensive review of Lewis’s work revealing five communication principles that explain his success as a communicator. Lewis is famous among children for his “Chronicles of Narnia” series, but he is also well known as a Christian writer of such books as “Mere Christianity” and “Miracles.” Beebe draws on Lewis’s advice about communication in his books, essays, and letters. Lewis believed a skilled communicator must be holistic, intentional, transpositional, evocative, and audience centered. The acronym HI TEA memorably summarizes these five principles. Lewis taught at Oxford University in England and Beebe has spent years researching his life and work there. Beebe was chair of the Department of Communication Studies for many years at Texas State University. He is also a past president of the National Communication Association and an internationally recognized communication author and educator. He is the author and co-author of numerous textbooks about communication used in college classrooms across the country. Rotary meets Wednesdays at the Holiday Inn and Conference Center at 105 Bintu Dr., San Marcos. Visitors are always welcome. Rotary is nonprofit, nonpolitical and nonreligious.

Rotarians participates in Spartan Death RaceKatie Deolloz shares Death Race experiences Katie Smith Deolloz participated in the Spartan Death Race in the Green Mountains of Vermont a week ago. She discusses that experience at the Rotary Club of San Marcos meeting on Wednesday, July 13 at noon. The Spartan Death Race has been described as the world’s toughest race. In the past ten years only 10 percent of racers have completed it. This year all but three got eliminated. The race lasts 70 hours. “The Spartan Death Race is formidable. I was woefully unqualified to participate, but I showed up anyhow. It changed my life in ways I did not anticipate,” Deolloz said. “When do you know you’re taking part in the Spartan Death Race? About the time you are flat on your belly, vomiting for the second time in less than thirty minutes, whilst being log-rolled over by perfect strangers. Yep. And that’s just the beginning,” she added. Deolloz is very physically fit. She founded WalkSMTX out of a passion to merge the need for people to live more physically active lifestyles with advocacy for safe places in which to move. Her dream is to see San Marcos transformed into America’s most walkable city. A graduate of The University of Texas at Austin, Deolloz is an integrative health coach. She has served on the boards of Vision Zero ATX and Walk Austin, Relatively new to San Marcos, she is a new member of both the San Marcos Greenbelt Alliance and San Marcos Rotary Club. Rotary meets at the Holiday Inn and Conference Center, 105 Bintu Drive, San Marcos. Visitors are always welcome. Rotary is nonprofit, nonreligious, and nonpolitical. Every week it has interesting speakers addressing a wide variety of local and global topics. |
Rise Against Hunger volunteers and donations neededThe Rotary Club of San Marcos Texas USA will sponsor its second Rise Against Hunger event on Saturday, October 15, 2022 from 9-12. We will purchase and package almost 15,000 meal packets for shipment to famine stricken people overseas. Last year the meals went to Burundi, East Africa. Rotary needs more than 150 volunteers and small or large cash donations for this effort. In addition to Rise Against Hunger, San Marcos Rotary this year is raising funds to benefit the Hays Food Bank and San Marcos School Fuel. Donations of food or cash would be much appreciated for these efforts too. So many volunteers helped in 2021 that the food packaging only took a little over an hour. Volunteers can be young and old. Entire families came to help last year. https://rah.secure.force.com/events/homepage?id=7013Z000002vph5QAA You can volunteer or donate at the link above or the QR code below. Rise Against Hunger and Rotary are both nonprofit organizations and gifts are tax-deductible.

Rotary Theme for 2022-2023: Imagine Rotary  RI President Jennifer Jones imagines a Rotary where members act to make their dreams become reality and they make the most of their club experiences. She urges members to engage more with each other and use these connections to build partnerships that change the world. The logo for the theme was designed by Riki Salam, an Australian artist and graphic designer specializing in contemporary Indigenous art, design, and communications. There is, of course, a deeper meaning behind each element of the design. The circle in aboriginal culture for instance, signifies our connections to one another. The dots around it represent people and there are seven because of Rotary´s areas of focus.The circle and the dots together become a navigation star – our guiding light. The solid line underneath is what is referred to as a digging stick and it is used when doing hard work. And since Rotary members are people of action – it represents a tool for getting things done. |

Donations to Fall 2022 Hunger ProjectsGood Day Fellow Rotarians and Concerned Community Members,
The October 15 is fast approaching. The target this year is $15,000 and $50,000 next year. We plan to pack 15,000 meals for shipment overseas as we did last year as well as raising significant funds for School Fuel and the Hays County Food Bank to serve food insecure people locally. I propose the following plan to raise the funds. The plan is to create a model that can be used year on year to grow the funding going forward. I will need assistance with creating a database for email campaigns to update donors and potential donors. A graphic web page to show the funds donated/received would be a handy tool. I am an accomplished beggar - I have no qualms asking people for money and assistance for those in need.

Rotary District 5840, serving South Central Texas, has made a priority of asking clubs to share information about all forms of human trafficking, which is a major problem in Texas. The District says, “Human trafficking is a considered a modern-day form of slavery and usually involves commercial sexual exploitation or forced labor. A report by the Statewide Human Trafficking Mapping Project estimates that 79,000 Texas youth are victims of sex trafficking. Another 234,000 people in Texas are estimated to be victims of labor trafficking, forced to perform domestic or agricultural work without their consent.” The Human Trafficking Unit in the Attorney General’s Office has a website with information and a video about the issue: https://texasattorneygeneral.gov/human-trafficking.

City of San Marcos Proclamation Celebrates 100th AnniversarySan Marcos Mayor, Jane Hughson, reads a proclamation declaring December 1, 2021 "Rotary Club of San Marcos Day in Honor of its 100th Anniversary. Present were Bruce Smith, Larry Hanson, and John Hardy.   |
SMTX Rotary History: 25th AnniversaryThe Rotary Club of San Marcos celebrated its 25th Anniversary on December 12, 1946. The club was chartered on December 1, 1921. The San Marcos club was the 1030th club in Rotary International. Today there are 35,000 clubs in almost 200 countries with more than 1.2 million members.   |
The creation of Rotary in San Marcos TXInitial discussions for the establishment of a Rotary Club in San Marcos were held at the Hofheinz Hotel during a luncheon of local businessmen on August 4, 1921. Guests at the luncheon were representatives from the Austin, Belton and Waco Chapters of Rotarians. Fast forward three months to the evening of November 3 rd when thirty Austin Rotarians traveled to San Marcos for the installation of twenty-five charter members into the San Marcos Rotary Club. The dinner/meeting was held at the Post Office Café. W.H. Richardson, Jr. from the Austin Rotary delegation chaired the ceremonies as businessmen from San Marcos were inducted into the Rotary Association. After adopting the constitution and by-laws of the International Association of Rotary Clubs, officers were elected – Dr. Lovard L. Lee, Jr. was elected president and John W. Gantt, was elected secretary-treasurer; Directors were Lovard L. Lee, Edward M. Cape, John W. Gantt, Tom C. Johnson, and Homer R. Blair. Weekly meetings were held each Wednesday at the Post Office Café. On January, 11, 1922, members of the San Marcos Rotary Club gathered together with Rotarians from Austin and San Antonio for dinner at the Normal School dining room for formal presentation of the San Marcos club’s charter. (The official charter of the club from Rotary International is dated December 1, 1921.) The photos depict the San Marcos Rotary Club celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of Rotary International during a banquet on February 24, 1955. The banquet was held at the Commons dining room on the SWTTC campus. Tom C. Johnson and Edward M. Cape - two charter members of the 1921 Rotary Club were honored. A dance program was presented by SWTTC students representing Spanish and Scottish dances symbolizing the international aspects of Rotary. The cake was a present from HEB and served at the conclusion of the dinner/program. Over one hundred members of the Rotary Club along with members of the Kiwanis, Lions and Exchange Clubs joined with the Rotary Club in celebration.

Hair Raisin Fundraiser for Rotary ClubPolio fundraising for San Marcos Rotary. An unusual event to raise money for polio vaccinations. The money raised is matched 2:1 by the Gates Foundation. If we raise $3000 it becomes $9000 with the match. According to the Rotary Foundation, it currently costs 60 cents to vaccinate one child against polio. So $3000 vaccinates 5000 and with the Gates match that would be 15,000 children vaccinated If you don't care to participate in this event, you are most welcome to send donations to the Rotary Club of San Marcos, PO Box 581, San Marcos TX 78667. On the memo line put POLIO. Peter Baen Rotary of San Marcos Rotary District 5840 - South Central Texas End Polio Now #polio San Marcos Local News #smtx P.S. Rotary has vaccinated more than 2 billion children in the past 35 years. The fight is almost won. Only two countries have polio cases right now. Help eradicate this terrible disease.  |

Rotary Fellowship GroupsNew Rotarians, did you know that there are countless Rotary Fellowship Groups that bring together Rotarians with common interests. Rotary Fellowships consist of members who share a common interest in recreational activities, sports, hobbies, or professions. These groups help expand skills, foster vocational development, and enhance the Rotary experience by exploring interests while developing connections around the world. While networking and doing service locally, you can connect worldwide with Rotarians who share some common interests with you. In San Marcos we had a Rotarian in the RV Fellowship. Groups of Rotarians traveled all over the U.S. together, seeing the sites and staying at campgrounds together. Interested in a particular subject?

Friday June 18 at 6 pm - Fundraiser/SocialFriday June 18 at 6 pm - Fundraiser/Social at First Christian Church on RR12. Cost is $5. The meal will consist of the food that SMTX Rotary will be packing for shipment abroad on October 16. Most of the $5 will go the buying peoples for hungry people. It is also an opportunity to experience and learn about the diet of people in food insecure nations. Come and share this experience while contributing a few dollars to the Rise Against Hunger project of the SMTX Rotary Club.

Rise Against Hunger Oct 16The #SMTX #Rotary Club will do a Rise Against Hunger project on Saturday, October 16. We will pack 15,000 meals for shipment to starving people overseas. Rotarians in Central Texas District 5870 did a Rise Against Hunger project in Bastrop on June 5th. Here are some images from it, to help visualize what this project will involve. Billy Pullen, Larry Hanson, and Bruce Smith attended the Bastrop event to see what is involved and how it is organized. It is impressive. @RiseAgainstHunger #RiseAgainstHunger
