Western Minnesota Steam Thresher’s Reunion – Annual Church Event
Rollag Lutheran Church in Hawley, Minnesota, is well known in the community for its involvement in hosting the Western Minnesota Steam Thresher's Reunion (WMSTR) every year. The WMSTR is a four-day event in Rollag, Minnesota, and is one of the largest agricultural shows in the country. The event brings together people worldwide to experience the sights, sounds, and smells of a time gone by. The WMSTR is a celebration of the history of farming and steam engines' role in agriculture.
The Rollag Lutheran Church has been integral to the WMSTR for many years. Every year, serving up ham dinners, breakfast and lunches. Some traditions served each year are donuts, lefsa and Rollag potato salad. With this being one of Rollag Lutherans Church’s fundraising we make sure to give back to our communities, like The Giving Tree, Operation Christmas Child, and other local stewardship opportunities.

To make the whole event a success, the Rollag Lutheran Church needs volunteers. Volunteers are needed to prepare and serve the food, as well as set up, clean up and counter servers.
