Catfish love water. That may explain why it’s rained both years at the Rotary Fish Fry.Saturday’s event made it almost till the end before a sudden downpour abruptly halted festivities on the West Lawn of Security Federal around 6:30 p.m. But the rain couldn’t wash away what was a successful event where an estimated 500 catfish dinner plates were served.“It seems like we’ve found an event that works and gets people out,” said Noon Rotary president Dan Bryant. “People seem to like fried catfish and hush puppies.”The event was a joint effort between McMinnville’s Noon and Breakfast Rotary clubs.
