Over the river and through the woods Rotarians came to the Boat House in the Fitger’s Complex for holiday fellowship, great food, and plenty of Christmas spirit. This was a festive occasion that saw many Rotarians – new members and old – come together ready to celebrate the season! The buffet-style meal featured walleye fingers, vegetarian eggrolls, cheesy avocado dip, and an Italian-style Prime Rib sliced to order!
The Rotary Singers welcomed a few new faces this year! Noah Holland and his new bride Lorelei are a musical duo who promise to share their talents this Thursday! Led by Past Assistant Governor Phil Strom, we listed to full-throated renditions of numerous Christmas favorites. The Rotary Singers will have an encore performance at our December 23rd meeting. Do not miss it!
As the old saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words.... Let these pics paint a holiday portrait for you!
