Welcome to the VIP Club
This is a living web site*,
updated fortnightly with new Club information and Legacy Anthology
articles.
**Join us!
As of April '19 we have 731 active memberships - 83% in Minnesota and 17% in 31 other states
plus one in Canada.
Club members' personal friendships started during
working days then continued as we've transitioned into retirement or other
occupations.
We are proud of our heritage companies, our technology innovations,
and our teamwork accomplishments while working - an intriguing and
continuing legacy.

Thanks
