End Polio Update evening
Club International Director Merilyn Russell presented Rotary District End Polio Coordinator Andrew DeGaris with a cheque from our club towards the goal of ending Polio in our lifetime.
Our guest speakers John Raymond, who shared his experiences of contracting Polio as a child in Adelaide and Meredith Roach who was invited to vaccinate children in India were well received by club members and visitors.
 
We donated 10
We donated 10 hay bales to feed starving livestock. Whilst the rest of Australia is wet, South Australia is dry with farmers struggling to find enough feed for their stock.
Every dollar we raise goes to help someone else.
