(ROTARIANS DEAN BINGHAM AND BOB LUMPP)

Effingham Noon Rotary club members took a trip on the river at their meeting October 10.

The guest speaker was new club member Bob Lumpp, a boat captain for many years on the Mississippi and many other midwestern rivers. Lumpp shared memories of his years on the waters, shared the history of boats on the waters of the Midwest since the arrival of the first white explorers, and answered questions about his career.

Dean Bingham, whose mother recently marred Lumpp, served as Rotary weekly program chairman.
