RAHS Brown Bag Lunchtime Meeting

"The history of Frank Rewold and Sons - 101 years in Rochester"

In 1918, Frank M. Rewold joined his father, Henry, at Meadow Brook Farms harvesting crops and building fences for John and Matilda Dodge. John Francis Dodge died in 1920. In 1926, Frank Rewold became the personal contractor for the remarried Matilda Dodge Wilson. From the beginning, Frank Rewold’s carpentry, relationship skills, and attention to detail transcended time. Decades passed as Frank Rewold taught his young apprentice and son, Roy Rewold, the tools of the trade. Years later, Roy, did the same for his son, Frank. As CEO and President, Frank has led his grandfather’s company to where it stands today. In its fourth generation and a century later, Rewold and Sons has not forgotten its heritage when business was done on a handshake. Jason and Sean Rewold will continue the tradition and lead the company into the next century from its north Oakland County base in Rochester. The goals remain the same to build relationships, trust, and quality that span generations.

Bring your lunch and enjoy complimentary coffee, tea, and cookies. This program is free and open to the public. This meeting will be held in the museum's Calf Barn.
