HISTORY 
OF THE 
WATERTOWN 
AGRI-BUSINESS
CLUB

The Watertown Agri-Business Club started in 1967. It started with about 30 men that decided to have dinner and talk about how they can help farmers and businessmen work together to make the Watertown area a better place for all. After a couple of meetings, it was decided they would hold monthly meetings at the Plattdeutscher's Hall.

Today, we have about five meetings a year, with December being a Christmas party with spouses or someone special. We hold our first get together in fall with a picnic in the park. Once a year in March we have a joint meeting with the Jefferson Agri-Business group.

This year our meetings will be held at Turner Hall in Watertown located at 301 South 4th Street. Social starts at 6 pm with dinner at 6:30 pm and a business meeting to follow.

Our biggest event and fundraiser is our annual dairy breakfast that rotates from farm to farm in the area and is always held Saturday and Sunday on Father's Day weekend.
