President-Elect (President-Elect@Madison-Rotary.org): Ken Meyer - I am a relatively new member of Rotary.  I joined the Madison club on May 7, 2006, and have enjoyed my involvement in Rotary immensely.  The fun at club meetings, the interesting meeting programs, and the community work that the club supports are the things that keep me coming to Rotary.  I would like to see our club grow in the coming years so that more people in the Madison area can share in the benefits of Rotary membership. Presently, I serve the citizens of Lake County as their elected State’s Attorney. I began serving in that position in January 2007. My  wife Casualene and I enjoy living in Madison with our six children.

 Past President:  Cindy Callies -- After graduating from the University of South Dakota with a B.S. in Business Administration with an Accounting major, Cindy served as Miner County Auditor.  In 2003, she was selected to serve as Business Manager for the Madison Central School District and joined Rotary that same year.  Cindy and husband Dan live on a farm southwest of Winfred and have two grown children and two grandchildren. Cindy assists fellow Rotarian Nancy Moose with the Rotary Roses fundraiser each year.  Cindy's term as President ended on June 30, 2009.

Secretary (Secretary@Madison-Rotary.org): Marcia Bunger - On my first day of working in the Lake County FSA Office (9/17/07), I was invited by Rotarian Mark Stearns to attend Rotary as his guest.  Shortly thereafter I became a member of Madison Rotary Club.  I am a 1982 graduate of Augustana College with a degree in Communications & Business Administration.  Since 1987 I have been employed with USDA working for the Farm Service Agency.  My husband & I farm north of Spencer, SD where we raise cattle, corn & soybeans.  We have 2 children – Matthew (25) living & working in Brookings SD at Daktronics, and Marrissa (23), living & attending graduate school at USD in Vermillion, SD.  In my short time being involved with Rotary, I’ve been inspired by my fellow Rotarian’s willingness to help others.
