ROTARIAN DENNIS VOY'S PROGRAM AT ROTARY TODAY HAD TO DO WITH
THE LAKEHURST DAM THAT HAS BEEN ON THE MAQUOKETA RIVER
FOR AROUND 60 YEARS.     IT HAS TWO GENERATORS THAT COULD SUPPLY
A SMALL TOWN WITH ALL THE ELECTRICITY IT NEEDS.    WHAT IS PRODUCED THESE DAYS IS SOLD TO A FIRM IN CEDAR RAPIDS.    THE GUEST SPEAKER ABOVE, WAS PETE SCHULTZ, WHO HAS BEEN THE MANAGER OF THE DAM JUST OVER 4 YEARS.    HE IS A NATIVE OF WISCONSIN AND HIS WIFE WORKS AT THE WESTSIDE OFFICE OF THE MAQUOKETA STATE BANK.     THEY LIVE IN THE RANCH HOME UP BY THE DAM, SUPPLIED BY THE OWNERS OF THE DAM.
FOR SOME WEATHER SITUATIONS, IT IS A DAY AND NIGHT JOB.    THE OWNER
AND HIS SON ARE FROM WISCONSIN AND THEY HAVE QUITE A FEW 
DAMS IN WISCONSIN, ILLINOIS  AND 3 IN IOWA.   THE OTHER TWO ARE IN ANAMOSA AND IOWA FALLS.    THEY ARE PROFITABLE,  BUT THEIR ANNUAL PROFIT DEPENDS ON GOOD WEATHER.     PETE IS THE LONE  FULLTIME EMPLOYEE, BUT THERE IS A PART TIME PERSON FOR WHEN NEEDED.    OTHERWISE,   PETE DOES IT ALL, INCLUDING MOWING THE LAWN AND FEEDING THE  20 OR SO DUCKS HE IS RAISING TO ENTERTAIN VISITORS TO THE DAM AND RIVER.   YES, GUESTS ARE WELCOME TO STOP BY AND LOOK AT THE DAM AND WALK TO THE OTHER SIDE.    ANYTIME BETWEEN 8 A.M. AND
8 P.M.    TOURS FOR STUDENTS ARE GIVEN WITH ADVANCE NOTICE.
THERE ARE SOME STRICT RULES POSTED THAT EVERYONE NEEDS TO
ABIDE BY.     A GOOD INTERESTING PROGRAM AGAIN TODAY.   THANKS TO PETE FOR GIVING IT!

NOT ONLY IS ROTARY FUN....YOU MEET A LOT OF PEOPLE AND LEARN NEW THINGS ALMOST EVERY WEEK.     JOIN ROTARY AND BE HAPPY!
