On the evening of March 24, 1960, the fledgling 23-member East Greenbush Rotary Club that had been formed earlier that month held a Charter Night dinner at the Crooked Lake Hotel.

On the evening of March 5, 2020, what now is the Southern Rensselaer County Rotary Club will hold a 60th Anniversary Party at the Comfort Inn & Suites’ Berkshire Room to celebrate that founding.

We hope you are planning to join your fellow Rotarians by making your reservations via email to BillDowd4Troy@gmail.com as soon as possible. RSVPs already have been coming in.

To make the evening even more special, we are trying to connect with past presidents who no longer are active with the club to invite them to join in the festivities since they are a special part of our history.

If you are in contact with any former SRC members, please feel free to invite them to join us by emailing their RSVP.

Reservations are just $45 per person through February 14, and $55 after that date. The final deadline for reservations is Thursday, February 20. Reservations will cover a wine-and-soft drinks open bar (plus cocktail cash bar), a lavish buffet spread, live entertainment, and a few surprises.
