The Elk River Rotary Club
Thanks You.... 
On behalf of all the Elk River Rotarians I would like to thank all our sponsors, vendors, entertainers and and the hundreds of guests who turned out to make our 4th annual Taste of Elk River such a marvelous success. Especially our Signature Sponsor, The Bank of Elk River for their continued support of the Elk River Rotary Club's major fundraising event.
We had a gorgeous evening to enjoy the variety of "Tastes" that make up our areas restaurants, caterers, and beverage distributers. We wish to again thank them for their time, talents and food. Without them this event would not be possible so please patronize them whenever you have the opportunity. They are the finest in dining and finest in community participation.
If you enjoyed it at the "Taste", visit or call them the next time you are dining out or in need of catering for those special events. We�ask that you support those that support us.
We also want to thank the many individuals and companies that donated to our first ever silent auction and to Wal-Mart for the donation of the WII Entertainment System. The funds raised from the silent auction and the WII Bowling Tournament will be a valuable addition to our bottom line.
Please check out this space and as we gather our final numbers we'll share with you more information. We will also have photos of the event taken by our own, Rotarian Tony Mikols.
Once again please accept my heartfelt thanks to all who participated in any way to make the " Taste of Elk River" such a rousing success.
Sincerely,
Bob Maxwell - Elk River Rotary President 2008 - 2009
