President Terry Partis spent some time speaking to the club about a significant initiative that is going on within Rotary District 5360.
As everyone knows, the job to "End Polio" is Rotary's # 1 priority, everywhere in the world. We need to get this done, both because the goal is definitely in sight and so we can go on to do more good work in the world. Rotary District 5360, with PDG Dan Dorherty and his wife Marlene have come up with a fundraising project that works very well with DG Martin's "more than healthy" lifestyle.
The project is called "Move for Polio", in any way you can. Set a goal on an individual basis, sponsor another Rotarian or just make a financial donation. President Terry will be sending out invitations to join "Team Medicine Hat", and have your contribution counted. Any activity qualifies, walking your dog, swimming, running, biking, working a bingo, Team Freewheel's outside work certainly qualifies.

We hope to celebrate the success of this project, at World Polio Day in October.
