NOTE: It's Halloween! Members and guests are encouraged/welcome to dress in costume (not mandatory!)
We welcome Rita Hanscom, world class Master's Track & Field Champion, speaking on "How to be an athlete in the last half of your life."
Here's a look at Rita's incredible, inspirational story:
Rita Hanscom is an attorney, wife, mother, and a remarkable example of resilience in athletics. A graduate of the University of Hawai‘i and Boston College Law School, she has built a distinguished career in public service, working in the California Attorney General’s Office, where she investigates health-care fraud.
Around age 47, after reading about Masters track and field, she resolved to learn pole vaulting—and that decision began a second chapter of extraordinary achievement.
Rita has competed in Masters events both nationally and around the world, earning accolades, winning medals and breaking records. In addition to five gold medals, she earned a world record in the heptathlon at the 2009 World Masters Championships in Lahti, Finland, and that year was honored as the Best Masters Female Athlete in the World. In 2025, at the USA Track & Field Masters Indoor Championships, competing in the women’s 70–74 pentathlon, Rita tallied 3,682 points, setting a new American age-division record. She also cleared 1.23 m in the high jump, ran 12.71 s in the 60m hurdles, and helped her 4×200 relay team break another American record. Rita has overcome two Achilles tendon injuries with trademark determination—staying active through recovery and proving that movement fuels healing. Her philosophy: stay active to heal and to thrive. As she says, “One of the greatest gifts you can give your children is to remain healthy and independent.”

It is an honor to welcome our District Governor Luis Carranza to update us on activities, accomplishments and challenges around District 5340.
Born in Tijuana, Baja California, and raised in San Diego, California, Luis Carranza represents the spirit of borderless service, unity, and opportunity that defines Rotary. At just 7 years old, Luis crossed from one country into another, but more importantly, he began a journey that would lead him across cultures, industries, and communities with one mission: to uplift others.
Luis’s early years were shaped by music, empathy, and service. As a violinist with the San Diego Youth Symphony, he performed across continents. As a teen who volunteered at Grossmont Hospital, he began understanding the transformative power of compassion. After studying Economics at the University of California, San Diego, Luis built a 20+ year career in the mortgage industry, where he currently works as a Senior Loan Officer with PrimeLending. But it was his heart for community that led him to Rotary.

The FBI's Cyber Program and current cyber threat landscape
Jan 23, 2026 6:45 AM
Today we welcome the FBI Supervisory Special Agent Ben Meyer for an overview on cyber crime in San Diego and beyond. The FBI San Diego Field Office is fresh off the the seizure and shut down of a web domain used to defraud Americans through cryptocurrency investment-fraud scams. According to the Dec. 4 edition of the San Diego Union-Tribune, more than 400 San Diegans were among the victims of Southeast Asia-based criminal enterprise, suffering an estimated cumulative loss of roughly $90 million in fiscal 2024. The paper notes: "However, federal investigators said they believe that figure to be a fraction of the total scope of losses, given that many victims do not report their losses to law enforcement." Join us for this important discussion of cyber crime - which, as we have just seen -can impact all of us.
