President's Message
March is Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene Month at Rotary!
Clean water is not just a necessity; it’s a human right. As Rotarians, we are committed to creating sustainable solutions that bring health and dignity to our communities. From our local schools to our neighborhoods, every drop of effort counts.
Let’s keep working 'shoulder to shoulder' to ensure a cleaner, healthier future for everyone!
With Rotary spirit,
Nohemí Romero Guzmán (Mimi)
You're invited to our monthly Fellowship, Club Service, and Peace Meetings
ABOUT OUR E-CLUB
As e-club members, we participate fully in Rotary life, enjoying the camaraderie and fellowship with other members and visitors through our get-togethers online. We are a regular club except we meet online, so we can join in from anywhere worldwide. Our club is perfect for Rotarian globetrotters and those who live too far from a traditional club to attend regularly. Everyone is welcome!
Our members come from all over the world, giving us access to an international network of friends and fellow Rotarians! And we meet each other individually whenever the opportunity arises.
To communicate with each other we use the following:
- Whatsapp to communicate with each other in group chats and telephonically.
- ClubRunner, where we maintain our member profiles, and where our E-Club documents and our member contact list can be accessed.
- Zoom, where we conduct our club meetings. It is very easy to use, we send you a link with a passcode to enter the meeting. You will need a device that has a camera to be able to get the best possible experience!

Our newest member - Marcos Nava
Marcos Nava joined the Rotary EClub of One World D5240 on March 4, 2026. Please welcome him and get to know him.
Roswell, New Mexico USA is home to Marcos and his three children. He has also lived in Dallas, Texas and Orange County, California. However, his first home where he was born was Guadalajara, Mexico.
What a distinguished and varied career Marcos has enjoyed.
- He worked for decades in Scouting America, formerly the Boy Scouts of America. He helped families join the Scouting program, which is the typical entry point for this career. His success was rewarded by promotions and added responsibilities. One of his greatest innovations was developing in Orange County a hybrid Scouting delivery program that replaced the rugged outdoors with local soccer/futbol pitches/fields. This was marketed VERY successfully to the large Hispanic population in the county. He recalls visiting one school in Santa Ana yearly with little to no results. Then, the inspiration hit to modify the outdoor and personal fitness component of Scouting by the inclusion of soccer/futbol. Quickly, he had hundreds of families enrolled. This led to a promotion for the entire Western Region for Hispanic Scouting... which led to a promotion to the National Office as Director of Hispanic Scouting for all of Scouting America.
- His first job was in Costa Mesa, California, at a Denny's Restaurant. This led to his love for cooking and he opened a restaurant in Santa Ana, California - Steve's Diner.
- Viejo Services Agency was another venture for Marcos, providing housecleaning services throughout Orange County.
- You'll have to ask him about his time as a sports promoter - something about a boxing match in the Caribean maybe
- Another successful business venture was opening up a home for the elderly.
Brandon, Maricela, and Marc Anthony are his children that he is rightfully proud of. They all graduated top of their class in Roswell. All have or are going to college at Brigham Young University. Marc Anthony works in the financial industry, Brandon graduates soon for a career in education, and Maricela is in college, updating her skills in a profession in medicine.
His love for soccer/futbol is another passion. He has season tickets to the Guadalajara CHIVAS Football Club. He and his sons went to the World Cup in 2012 in Quatar. He has asked if he can be our "soccer commissioner" for our Harmony Through Soccer projects this next year.
As a past president of the Roswell, New Mexico Rotary Club, he understands the Four Way Test and spirit of Rotary. He's already signed up for the International Convention in Taipei this June.
