Redwood Falls Rotarians celebrated their milestone anniversary with a festive social and meeting. Members’ spouses and prospective guests helped fill the room as the club enjoyed music, a social, and memories. One story involved a competitive attendance contest between four-member teams. Reportedly, three Rotarians brought their fourth member -- who had hurt his back and couldn’t walk -- to the meeting on a stretcher to ensure their team’s win.

 

A panel of the longest-serving members included (from left) Mark Oja (45 years), Jan Craig Nelson (40 years), Robin Stegner (34 years), Rich Seavert (33 years), and Carleton Bjerke (59 years). “We all remember when we were some of the youngest,” said Robin. “Seems like yesterday.”
