Dunnville Rotary

Club Origins

The concept of a Rotary Club of Dunnville was discussed by three local business men in 1990 on a cold Dec 3rd in the bowling alley at Grimm's (now Mudcat Alley). They decided that Rotary was needed in Dunnville and that Des Rasch would be Secretary, the late Leo Brown would be Treasurer, and Archie Merigold would be the new Chartering President. The three continued to meet at Grimm's, recruiting members one by one until enough existed to satisfy the criterion to formally charter a new Rotary Club.

New first members included Marjorie Ettinger, Jane Smith and Ton Dicke.
