Join us on the traditional first Thursday of the month for conversation, joviality, and perhaps a bit more. Over the last two years we've visited every saloon in downtown St. Cloud, including the East side, and so now we'll start to branch out to visit saloons which are not in the immediate downtown area. The first, for the Feast of Ground Hogs, will be RJ's American Grill in the McStop neighborhood immediately adjacent to Road #I-94 and the intersection with Road #75 South. Join us! |

Stress - Why lack of exercise and a poor diet isn't the only thing killing you and making you fat
Apr. 25, 2017
Tanner Neubauer is the Business Development Director at Rejuv Medical. He's been working with the Rejuv team for about two years. He grew up in Princeton and has his Bachelor's Degree in Kinesiology from the University of Wisconsin. Despite his loyalty to most Minnesota Sports, he, unfortunately, is a Badger fan... NOT a Packer fan though. His passions and commitment in life are to encourage as many people to put their health and themselves higher up in their list of priorities and does so by encouraging companies and individuals to make investments in their health.... It truly does pay the best dividends. |

This is the last-in-a-two-years-series of Rotary After Hours in the Jim Schlenner Tradition as we will have explored twenty-five or twenty-six different saloons (we were aced out at the Ace; dangit!) in the Rotary Club of St. Cloud membership area. After this one, who knows?! Troy Fritz will have and know the answer(s). If The St. Germain Hotel had a bar we'd assemble there, but alas... So, what say ye? For this final event of the Rotary year, let's assemble out on the lake at Eddie's on Grand. Several of our members live right there and so we'll make a home visit. And, on the way back to town, stop at Tom Ruether's place in Martin, MN -- two for one! Enjoy! |
