The Decorah Rotary Club hosted its Trout Run Trail (TRT) Tour Day this year on Tuesday, August 13th. This annual event provides an opportunity for local senior citizens, those with physical limitations, and anyone with limited access to the TRT to experience the beauty of the entire 12-mile circuit. Nearly 125 local community members came out and filled the available seats for each of multiple scheduled trail loops. The weather was perfect and the scenery spectacular. Participants enjoyed coffee and rolls breakfast and tasty barbecue luncheon hosted at the Chuck Gipp Decorah Fish Hatchery pavilion.
Our club extends its thanks for the leadership provided by these members: Mike Huinker (overall coordination, machine and driver coordinator, and TRT 28-E Committee liaison); Dacia Monson (tables and chairs); Bill Courtney (appointments and reservations coordination); and Shannon Duncan and Ward Budweg for delicious food preparation.
Our club also thanks all of our member volunteers who supported this event: John Anderson, Don Arendt, Lorraine Borowski, Darrel Branhagen, Ward Budweg, Brielle Buresh, Rachael Buresh, Bill Courtney, Shannon Duncan, Maureen Dunklee, Phil Iversen, Kent Klocke, Alan Lerstrom, John Moeller, Uwe Rudolf, Kelly Reagan, Kathleen Ritner, Roger Huinker, and J.T. Vogel.

Thanks also to additional drivers Mike Harman, Harlan Satrom, Bill Brenning, Dacia Monson and Roger Huinker.
