Rotarians at State Birthday Celebration
Here's the famous photo with famous people that saved the Rotarians from hefty fines from Finemaster Zimmer. The fine-proof Allen Beermann made sure he had the Rotary badge visible in this photo as proof they are proud Rotarians at the State Birthday celebration. From verbal accounts, Rotary 14 had the biggest delegation to the recent State birthday celebration. They made sure they had a group photo and sent it to the Propeller Editor. Not only that they were all safe from fines, but they also got attendance credits.
L to R: Rotarians Patty Pansing Brooks, Mark Stephens, John Zimmer, Merle Jansen, Allen Beermann proudly holding up his Rotary badge, Roger Lempke, AshLea Allberry, Tammy Ward, and John Gessert
