Our club will be helping Salvation Army ring bells for the holidays on December 14th.
Please stop by Fred Meyers to say hello and help us raise funds for Salvation Army.
Amount raised with the PolioPlus Fun Run & Walk and Rotary Radio Day $11,776!!
And then, with the Bill & Melinda Gates 2:1 match, that number becomes a whopping - $35,328!!
Thanks again to everyone for your efforts. We are - as Bill Gates says - 'achingly close' to eradicating polio in the world.
Congratulations to our winners!
