The original Rock Falls Rotary Club Corn Boil was an activity for the club members and their families.  Wilson and Lorraine King were the original hosts of this event, on their farm south of Rock Falls.  This event has grown into a community event with over 1500 meals being served. The public is invited.

The Corn Boil is a major fundraising event for the club.  Proceeds benefit many community projects and offer youth support.
