2026 Bloody Mary Fest: Big Wins for Our Community!
Thanks to your incredible support, our annual fundraising event was a massive success!
Because you showed up, poured out your generosity, and celebrated with us, we are thrilled to announce the impactful organizations receiving funding from this year's event.
Here is how your contributions are making a direct difference:
$1,500 awarded to four outstanding local nonprofits:
Set Me Free Project
Salvation Army
Outlook Enrichment
Project Pink'd
$750 awarded to the West Omaha Rotary Foundation to support their ongoing service projects.
A Powerful Community Effort! 🎟️🍾 Every single ticket, raffle, and vodka purchased went directly toward empowering these organizations to continue their life-changing work. Thank you for being the most important ingredient in our fundraising success!
Committees are your ultimate chance to engage with other Rotarians, help the community, utilize your strengths, and make a massive difference.
This is your chance to pitch fresh project ideas, mentor new members, and directly shape where our club’s energy and resources go next. Whether your strengths lie in event planning, community outreach, member engagement, social media, or logistics, there is a seat at the table with your name on it.
July brings a beautiful moment of transition for West Omaha Rotary. We wrap up a phenomenal year of service with immense gratitude for the leadership that brought us to where we are today. Now, the torch is officially being passed!
Congratulations and thank you to Candy Specht, Scott Hahn, Kent Templien, and Micki Pane for leading our club in a fantastic Rotary year!
We are excited to welcome our new President Stephanie Olson, Secretary Dave Fulton, and incoming board members Chris Krueger, Bob Smith, and Scott Shelbourn!
Also, a special thanks to our Executive Director, Sarah Clark!
