Review of Community Programs in Rock Valley
A summary of community program meetings since October 1931 notes 2 sessions arranged with five at Warren Hotel and City Cafe four in the basement of Fary’s Church and one at Reformed Church. Attendance ranged 40 to 250. Committees aim to balance crowds and costs, using churches for efficiency. Over five years 22 speakers from outside Rock Valley have appeared. Suggestions include Dr. Smith and Dr. Henderson from Sioux Falls and Henn E. De Vries of Sioux Center on Dutch traditions and communism. Mr. Skyburg of Canton is an undefeated debater. Programs rely on volunteers and modest meal fees to cover overhead. The November meeting under Rev. J. Gritters is anticipated. reservations and attendance are crucial to avoid waste.
