One of the major fund-raisers that Sooner Rotary conducts is working with the other two Rotary Clubs in Norman to host Le Tour de Vin. In addition to the $15,000 already contributed to Food and Shelter for Friends, JT Johnson announced that the club's share of the proceeds of the event are an additional $25,000 which will be used by the club for other community projects.
