Saturday Performance Dedication JULIAN AZEVEDO

Julian Azevedo was born and raised in Santa Maria, where he built a life rooted in hard work, community, and family. He spent 18 years working with Pacific Beverage Distribution, gaining extensive experience in the industry. Alongside his career, he devoted a decade to bartending at the Santa Maria Elks Lodge, where he formed lasting connections. His commitment and leadership eventually led him to become Club Manager of the lodge, a role in which he continues to serve his community with pride. Outside of his professional work, Julian is deeply involved in volunteer efforts. He regularly helps in the Elks kitchen on Sundays and serves as co-leader of the Old Town 4-H sheep group, mentoring local youth. This marks his Third year overseeing bar operations, token booths, and managing orders and deliveries for all bar-related needs at the Santa Maria Elks Rodeo—an event that relies heavily on his organization and dedication. When time allows, Julian also volunteers for the Golden Circle of Champions and supports the Antlers youth program, further demonstrating his commitment to giving back. Despite his many responsibilities, he always makes time for what matters most—his family. Julian is a proud father of five children—three boys and two girls—and a devoted “Papa” to six grandchildren. He cherishes every opportunity to attend their sports activities and be an active part of their lives.
