News About The Club

This month, South Austin Rotary proudly shines the spotlight on long-time member Simon Garza, who has been serving our community through Rotary for an incredible 33 years.

Simon embodies the Rotary spirit—dedicated, humble, and always the first to volunteer. Whether it’s lending a hand at a community service project, helping with fundraisers, or supporting fellow Rotarians, Simon’s commitment to Service Above Self never wavers.

Simon’s passion for volunteering is an inspiration to us all. His unwavering dedication reminds us that true service isn’t about recognition—it’s about caring enough to take action.

Thank you, Simon, for your 33 years of service, leadership, and heart. South Austin Rotary is better because of you!

The Rotary Club of South Austin is excited to share a new way to show your Rotary spirit while supporting our service projects — the Club Swag Store and Club Swag Locker.

The Club Swag Store was created by Rotarians to provide fun, affordable Rotary gear through print-on-demand. That means no bulk orders and no extra waste — just the items you want, made when you order. Proceeds from purchases will directly benefit the South Austin Rotary Foundation 501(c)(3), funding both local and global service projects.

For those who want a more customized look, the Club Swag Locker offers high-end products such as polos, performance shirts, and tote bags — all branded with your Club’s official Club Masterbrand logo. The Locker provides members with a polished way to represent Rotary at service projects, community events, or everyday wear.

Both options make it simple to wear your Rotary pride while giving back. Every order helps strengthen the work we do through the South Austin Rotary Foundation.

Visit the Club Swag Store today and explore how you or your club can gear up with Rotary pride while making a lasting impact.
