Scope and Contents
The final series presents visual evidence of the Club's membership and activities. Some of the earliest images include a 1914 picnic and the minstrel shows of the 1920s.

The images also detail the Club’s interaction with its sister club in Ohmi Hachiman, Japan; images of support of handicapped children; its efforts to support young people through the Junior Rotarian program; its work at Indian Trails camp; portraits of some of the membership, and images collected to illustrate the 75 year history.
