The SaddleBrooke Clubhouse will be adorned with American flags as the Rotary Club of SaddleBrooke honors area veterans on Thursday, Nov. 7, at 11:30 a.m. The annual celebration will include an incredible buffet, an honor color guard, and program by well-known speaker and Rotarian, Emerson Knowles. Each year, more than 100 veterans, guests, and members help to mark the observance.

The Rotary Club of SaddleBrooke is taking reservations for veterans and their guests. We’re also looking for veterans of World War II and the Korean War to honor with our complimentary buffet lunch. Reservations are necessary and need to be made by Thursday, Oct. 31. To make a reservation or provide information on a veteran, contact Leslie Hawkins at 520-818-3818.

The Rotary Club of SaddleBrooke is an award-winning club that is packed with energetic volunteers of all ages coming together as friends in Rotary to assist area schools, our community, and international philanthropies.
