Harbor Days 2024
Our Rotary Float and the BBQ Site
Much renewed energy, verve, and grit were evident this year, both at the Harbor Days parade and the Rotary Annual BBQ. The Rotary Club of Elk Rapids is a founding member of Harbor Days and has participated in every festival since 1954. This year was extra special; our club went all out to wow the crowd at the parade. As you can see at above left, Rotarian George Seifried prouldly displayed both his Project Gradualtion sign and his smarmy western attire. Did cowboys wear shorts?
Above right, Rotarians Tom Klingler, Phyliis Chaphalkar, and Pam Forton are shown getting ready to welcome customers to our BBQ, collect money, and give out tickets. Proceeds
As evidence of the Give it all you got! emphasis this year, here is a photo of BBQ Chairperson and new Rotarian, Jennifer Reynolds, AKA Thee Sauce Goddess, relaxing at the end of the day.
