Several clubs in the district participated in this event. Although it was originally explained as getting $1.00 for every pint of beer consumed, it has morphed several times, so it now includes pints of ice cream, and a fire boot toll road. It is all good because the whole intent was to educate Rotarians and non-Rotarians about polio immunization and collect money for Polio Plus. So far, I have club reports of collecting $297, $300, $250, $500, $250, $325, $2600, $200, $214, and $500 which totals $5,436. The most creative idea was the Tolls for Polio. Oxford Hills held a Road Toll on October 17th and raised $2,219.84 in four hours of effort.
The money raised was great and getting together to talk about polio and all thing Rotary was even better. We still have several clubs who are planning their events for November, December and the new year.
Thanks to all.
