Directions: Head to the Rochester Airport. It is strongly recommended that you go to the round-about and come back on Hwy 63 where Nuss trucking is your first right turn, just off Hwy 63, head away from Nuss Truck machinery and equipment along frontage Road about 500 yards. Watch for the Rotary signs to direct you to the building where we will meet.
Bring your own lunch and beverage. Bob will provide a tour where you'll see a Mack-Volvo, a Touring Bus, and other vintage equipment in the museum while also hearing Bob's great life story. Need a ride? Call Colin Aldis at 507-269-4333.

STRIVE is a select group of seniors that meets in-person six times during the school year to help high school students achieve their goals after graduation as well as five times virtually to support the students between sessions. Community members from the three Rochester Rotary Clubs will partner with students at the Rochester ALC. Each in-person session will cover topics like goal setting, budgeting, applying for scholarships, career development, and more.
We are looking for 10 Rotary Members to be mentors for the students at the Rochester ALC. Meetings will be on the 2nd Friday of the month starting in December from 11:30 am - 12:15 pm. Please reach out to Deb Christianson, Ellen Heydon, or Suzanne Dinusson for more information or to sign-up to be a mentor this year with the Rochester ALC. Click for a downloadable flyer.

Mentees are actively being recruited for this program.

Mentees will also have the opportunity to learn more about Rotary, where we practice Service Above Self.
