Rotary Club of Simi Sunrise Bulletin - June 18 and 25, 2026

Rotary Club of Simi Sunrise's bulletin for the weeks of June 18th and June 25th, 2026. This is a combined bulletin, two weeks of updates and photos for the price of one!

June 18th

On June 18th, Simi Valley City Manager Samantha Argabrite gave an overview of what the City Manager's role is, provided updates on the state of Simi Valley and shared some economic updates for businesses opening in Simi Valley.

We were also joined by founding members Jim Lowry and Sal Fasulo (the club's first president!).

June 25th

June 25th was Arun's last meeting as President and it was a fun one! We played trivia games around the theme of 4th of July and US History, and we enjoyed omelets for breakfast. 

Kylah Baker (and her dad Kevin Baker) joined us and Kylah sang a beautiful rendition of Somewhere Over the Rainbow.

Arun's Demotion

On Saturday June 20th we gathered at Viva La Pasta to honor Arun's tenure as President. Arun spoke on his experience as President and gave awards to club members that made this year great. Before gathering for dinner, Dwight and Karen Thompson organized a day with Rotarians for Arun to The Reagan Library.
