The Rotary MESA Bike Tour 2014 will be peddling through Lima on WED, 6/25. If you'd like to meet with the Bikers, contact Rebecca Waggamon for more information.

David Grimm introduced our speaker - Bill Yokas, plant manager for DTR Industries in Bluffton. (Originally a Tokai/Duramax project) The company generates over 500 million in sales worldwide, with the main component being a Hydro Engine mount. One in every 2 cars use a part from DTR or its parent company - Tokai. The company continues to grow steadily - even needing to move several product lines to other plants in order to concentrate on engine mounts.
