Only Fire Fans Belong To Saturday Steak Club
A long running Cedar Rapids dining group meets every two weeks in station No 3 basement. Firemen, a school board secretary, a railroad man, a county auditor, an artist and two dogs join for open fire meals and talk. The club began at station No 4 eight years ago, with Capt Stastny as founder, later moving with Chadima to No 3. Members roast steaks over furnace coals and the evening blends eating with conversation, ending when the bell rings.
