October 24th is World Polio Day. Our club will be marking this day with an update on Polio and will be asking Rotarians to donate what they can to End Polio Now. We will make a combined donation on behalf of our Rotary Club and I'm happy to say that the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation will be matching everything 2 to 1. Our sergeant will be circulating the basket so each Rotarian can share a quick story about Polio, an experience with Polio, or simply what they are thankful for regarding End Polio Now. Please give what you can and let's eradicate this disease from the world forever!
On October 31st, District Governor Lindagene Coyle will be visiting our club. She will be giving a presentation on the happenings with District 5050 and her plans for the year. We also have some special cheque presentations to Abbotsford Starfish. I'd love to see a full turnout of Rotarians. Come out and meet your District Governor for 2017-2018! There will be no tables stakes, marble draw or Sergeants this day.
