Classification Speech by Chris Kaufman-
 
Chris was married in 2016, as a son and two beloved dogs. He was born in South Minneapolis. He served in the army from 2012-2015 with the field artillery as a fire support specialist. His time in the military helped him to learn physical and emotional flexibility. He was stationed in Kentucky. After arriving there in June he was quickly deployed that September.
 
Chris was able to pay for his college degree through his service with the military and went for music, which was and is his passion. He graduated from the U of W River Falls in music and with a minor in political science. After college both Christ and his wife started to work for Great Waters Financial.
 
Chris continues to create music with his 5 bands he is involved in. His groups preform at multiple breweries around the Twin Cities and do weddings/events. Stay tuned friends, we are hoping to get one of Chris's groups to play at a Rotary event coming up this summer!
