On Sunday Jan 17th the Edmonton Oil Kings battled with the Kamloops Blazers in an unfortunate loss 2-1.

There was however a big winner as 'End Polio Now' district chair, Patrick Gibson and his team put 561 buns in the seats at Rexall resulting in the Oil Kings presenting a cheque in the amount of $5,610 to District Governor Tim Schilds and Patrick in the second intermission.

Thanks to the Rotary clubs in District 5370 who participated. This contribution has the potential to become $28,050 after matching grants from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Government of Canada.

Well done everybody!
