“The Best Ribs You Have Ever Had”: Rotary’s Legacy of Food and Fellowship
In order to foster a sense of unity and togetherness, Logan Rotary hosts socials, also known as fellowship events, for its members. These events usually revolve around a good venue and even better food. Rotary possesses a rich food history, meeting at some of Logan’s best-known restaurants for lunch: The Hotel Eccles, The Bluebird Restaurant, Copper Mill, and Hamilton’s at the Country Club. However, the food outside of the regular lunch meetings has a special history. Over the past forty years, the Jarvis family incorporated their now famous rib recipe into the Golf and Ribs Day. Many Rotarians will testify that these ribs are by far the best barbecue they have ever eaten.[1] Additionally, Rotary now hosts its Family Picnic at Sportsman’s Paradise, where Rotarians and their families enjoy a freshly caught trout dinner. Rotarians find good food important, not only because it tastes delicious, but because sharing a quality meal brings people closer together. Over and over in interviews with local members, the importance of fellowship came up as a primary motivation for being involved in Logan Rotary.
