Join us Wednesday, October 27th at 7:30am for our weekly morning meeting as we hear from Dave Ulrich on Twin Metals MN.
Dave is a Communications Consultant at Twin Metals, sharing stories of future mining opportunities. He joined Twin Metals at its inception. Since then, Dave has been actively involved in workforce development initiatives to prepare educational pathways for people to become part of the mining industry, including service on the Governor's Workforce Development Board, NE MN Workforce Investment Board, UMD, MNSCU, and local NE Minnesota technical college and high school advisory boards.
Twin Metals MN is a Minnesota company focused on designing, constructing, and operating an underground copper, nickel, cobalt, and platinum group metals mining project in NE Minnesota.

At Harbortown's morning meeting on November 3rd, the club will continue its long standing tradition of supporting the Rotary Foundation with our annual Foundation Day. Harbortown does this by making contributions to the Rotary Foundation and by doing so, honoring members, family, and friends with a Paul Harris Fellow. Learn more about the Rotary Foundation: www.rotary.org.
New members will soon be contacted about the Rotary Foundation and Paul Harris Fellows. Should any member want to honor a family member or friend with a Paul Harris Fellow, please contact Keith Kylmala (kkylmala.kylmalatruss.com).
As in the past, it is the goal of Harbortown and Rotary to have each member donate $100.00 every year.
Harbortown has always amazed with its generosity and support of the Rotary Foundation. Let's continue our tradition with another successful Foundation Day!
Save the date! Harbortown Rotary's next Fireside meeting will be held on Wednesday, November 10th from 5:30pm - 8:30pm at the Kitchi Gammi Club. There will be buffet dinner and cash bar. The RSVP will be going out via email within the next couple of weeks. Please RSVP so the club can ensure the right count. Mark your calendars!
Rotary District 5580 is an organization of officers, committees, programs and activities intended to support the operations of the clubs within its area. It includes Rotary clubs in portions of MN, WI, Ontario, and all of ND. It is the District’s role to assist in strengthening each club and their ability to make a positive difference in their communities and in the world by:
Empowering engaged Rotarians in service to each other and to their communities
Fostering unity among member clubs
Strengthening and expanding Rotary around the District
Communicating the work of Rotary district-wide
Providing a system of inspiring and effective administration
We strive to continually enhance and grow the level of support we offer our District’s clubs, and we need your help in defining what is important, what is working, and what needs to be improved in our offerings. Pleaseprovide your valuable input by completing this short survey.
If you have an upcoming program duty (please check the upcoming duty roster), please be sure to secure a speaker and provide notice to Rick Oase (rickoase@yahoo.com) or Stephanie Judd (sljudd@gmail.com) as soon as that speaker is confirmed. If you are unable to confirm a speaker, consider other program ideas like a Ted Talk, presenting yourself on a relevant topic or your business, or creating some excitement for a community organization you are passionate about. It is your program, so think about what is interesting and engaging to you and share it with others!
If for some reason you are unable to switch duties with another member or you have simply exhausted all efforts to find a speaker, please notify Rick or Stephanie no later than 3 business days before the meeting (the Friday before the meeting your program is scheduled).
The Holiday Inn has dedicated a laptop for weekly Harbortown use. All presenters need to bring is a USB drive with the PowerPoint presentation (or whatever is wanted to be shown on the projector while speaking). Please share this information with your program's presenter.
Because Harbortown is asked by the Holiday Inn for RSVPs each week, Rob will RSVP each weekly presenter to ensure the presenter gets breakfast. If the presenter is bringing a guest, please let Rob know so he can RSVP the guest, as well. Questions? Please contact Rob Haglin (rhaglin@awkuettel.com).
