Thanks to Woody Beach, long time Rotarian and UMaine alumna, for presenting us with a District 779 cookbook circa 1958.  His dad was also a long time Rotarian from the Rumford Club and this cookbook comes from his collection.

Cookin' for those Rotarians was sponsored by the Westbrook Rotary Club during the District Governor year of our own Phil Stultz.  As noted in the forward, his wife Orra was instrumental in the compilation of the book, collecting recipes from her fellow Rotary-Anns. The book was dedicated to then Rotary International President Clifford A Randall who is said to have been “a specialist in the culinary arts”.  It is fun to note that the contents are in both English and French, as parts of Canada were included in our District at that time.
 
 
 
We will look forward to sharing some recipes in future Scribblers.
