With a big turnout of club members, the set up coordinated by Nicole Rosser was a success.
The Marysville Rotary Club's Sodbuster's event, now known as Yuba-Sutter's Favorite Event thanks to those who voted in the Appeal-Democrat's "Best of Yuba-Sutter" competition, was wildly successful. The sell out crowd enjoyed a nearly flawless presentation on a beautiful night on September 19, thanks to the leadership of event Chair Nicole Rosser, and a tremendous response by the Club to the needs of setting up the event behind Cotton Rosser arena along the Feather River in Marysville's Beckwourth Riverfront Park.
Two days after Yuba-Sutter Special Olympics Director T.J. Fetters provided Rotarians with the story of the founding and growth of the worldwide organization devoted to providing athletic competition opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities, several dozen local Special Olympics athletes gathered at Blackburn-Talley Park in Yuba City for what was planned as another softball tournament hosted by the local organization. Unfortunately, COVID-19 had other plans and none of the Special Olympics teams from other communities made the trip. That didn't dampen the enthusiasm of most of the athletes, who were excited to be on the field and in uniform for the first time in over a year.
Several dozen of the area's 200 Special Olympians gathered Saturday for skills competition and softball games.
The Marysville Rotary Club will make a $500 donation to a youth leadership program developed and managed by the Alliance for Hispanic Advancement, the Board of Directors decided at its meeting Monday, July 19. As explained by Rotary Guest Speaker Grace Espindola, the program is intended to focus on leadership development among youth who may not normally get the opportunity to develop confidence by leading a team or developing public business skills. The first Mexican-American Immigrant to be elected to the Yuba City Council, Grace last week discussed her travel with her mother from Mexico to join her father who had come to the southwest United States in the bracero ag worker program, and how much work is actually involved in being a City Council member.
