Open Door

EKSR will resume quarterly volunteer evenings at THE OPEN DOOR - first Thursday of November, February, May, and August. The shift is 4:15pm to 7:00pm

This aligns better with our volunteer capacity and avoids holidays where volunteers are often scarce.

True Crime and Kick-Start Rotary!

Our very own top-notch prosecutor, Elizabeth Lamin, helped convict a murderer whose case had been cold for over 20 years. Nick Firkus was convicted and sentenced to life in prison, thanks to Elizabeth, the BCA, St. Paul PD and even the FBI.

And now the story is being told on ABC's 20/20 tonight, a two hour special on the case, which for years had baffled investigators.
