Herman & Genny in Wasioja on June 21, 2010
Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010
At noon on Monday, June 21, the Camp Winnebago Wagon Trail stopped at Wasioja & our Kasson-Mantorville Lions Club served the group brats for their noon meal. The wagon train had started out from Austin on Friday & now were heading up to West Concord, Nerstrand & will stay overnight in Northfield at the rodeo grounds I believe on Wednesday night & will wind up the event in Goodhue, MN on Friday. There were about 125 people with the caravan with approximately 35 wagons & buggies drawn by horses & mules plus a large group of outriders on horses. Herman Transberg has been going along with this ride for several years but said he was driving the school bus this year for the train. It is a annual fund raiser for Camp Winnebago near Caledonia, MN, for handicapped youth & sponsored by Lion clubs in South East Minnesota.
