The Sertoma Club of New Ulm has named Jeff Bertrang as its 2015/2016 Sertoman of the Year. Since joining the Club in 2013, Jeff has been a model member, immediately engaging in all activities sponsored by the Club. In 2015 was on the Service to Mankind committee and the last two years has been the lead of our annual Breakfast with Santa event. While being the lead of this event Jeff has encouraged high school students to volunteer, resulting in a greater community involvement for this event. He is quick to step up to volunteer and his attendance at weekly meetings is outstanding. Jeff is very active in New Ulm serving on numerous boards and civic organizations and is seen as an extraordinary volunteer in the community. Jeff and his family live, work and play an active role in the community.
