Holaway Elementary studies the water cycle with help from the Rincon Rotary.

"And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll study the rain?"*

Patricia Patchin at Holaway Elementary requested a Water Cycle Kit to provide hands on experience for her fourth grade students, The kit focuses on condensation, evaporation, precipitation, cloud formation, creation of rainbows, humidity and much more through use of classroom terrariums and closed water chambers. Living in the desert, The Rincon Rotary acutely understands the importance of studing this precious natural resource.

Rincon Rotary's support is part of its Rotary LOCAL program, whose mission is to help improve the local community through educational outreach. Rotary LOCAL can provide manpower, resources from local business partners, or in some cases, direct financial support to teachers who apply for assistance.

To find out more about Rotary LOCAL and how it may be able to help you, go to rotarylocal.org. Primary support for Rotary LOCAL comes from the Rincon Rotary's annual fundraiser, The Tucson Taste of Chocolate.
