FOREST ROBINSON

Forest has been a Wenatchee Rotarian in since 1966, and is a Paul Harris Fellow.

He is retired from a retail business career, during which he owned and built 12 family clothing stores in several Washington State cities, including Wenatchee and East Wenatchee, Richland and Walla Walla.
