Rotary Club
Brown County Rotary Club will meet at 7:45 a.m. on Thursday, Dec. 15 at the Seasons Lodge in the Fireplace Lounge, 560 State Road 46 East.
The guest speaker will be Patty Frensemeier, who will discuss business ownership and entrepreneurism in a small town that is heavily dependent upon tourism and how those have evolved before, during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
Frensemeier is the owner and general manager of the Hills O’ Brown Vacation Rentals and the owner of Friends O’Mine Campground and Cabins in Gnaw Bone. Since she is a veteran of the United States Air Force, these are veteran-owned businesses. She is also the president of the Board of Directors of the Brown County Playhouse.
Members of the community, especially those interested in exploring opportunities to participate in projects and to be of service to our community, are invited to attend. You may join us via Zoom using a link obtained by visiting www.RotaryClubofBrownCounty.org and clicking on the “Contact us” URL.
