Rotary's "Gus" Braeutigam Memorial Fish Fry

Oct. 10 in Heritage Park

  The Frankenmuth Noon Rotary Club will be hosting its fifth annual Harold “Gus” Braeutigam Memorial Fish Fry in a new location next month.

  The event will be held at the Rotary Club building in Heritage Park from 4-7pm Friday, October 10.

 “The fish fry was started by the Noon Club and was dedicated to the late Dr. Harold “Gus” Braeutigam, who was a Rotarian for over six decades and a leader in the organization, here and statewide,” Noon Club spokesman Vern Schiefer said.

  The same great cod fish dinner is being planned as in past years with a new pickup location. Dinners will be available for pickup via drive-through, take-out only. Motorists should take Weiss Street north past the new Bavarian Blast water park entering Heritage Park, where an attendant will direct drivers.

  Persons must purchase a ticket in advance; none will be available the day of the event. Wild-caught, cold-water ocean cod, au gratin potatoes, coleslaw, and a roll will be on the menu.

  Tickets are available for purchase from any Noon Rotarian and also the concierge front desk at the Frankenmuth Credit Union’s main branch office, 580 North Main Street.

  Proceeds from this year’s fish fry will benefit the Rotary Club’s Helping Hands Fund. The Helping Hands charity was founded in 2016 to meet humanitarian needs in the community. Over the past eight years, Rotary has distributed over $100,000 to meet critical humanitarian needs locally.

  “Our Rotary Club members continue to be inspired by Rotary’s legacy of ‘Service Above Self’ which Gus modeled throughout his life. We appreciate the community’s past support of the event, and look forward to another great fish fry honoring Gus,” Schiefer concluded.
