Rotary has partnered with organizations around the world since 1988 in an attempt to completely eradicate the disease polio from the world. We have gotten tantalizingly close, but the last push is going to take an all-out effort for a few more years. The October 2022 issue of Rotary magazine has an excellent article summarizing the progress that we have made and explaining some of the recent stumbling blocks that have cropped up. But Rotary maintains its commitment to pursuing the achievable goal of eradicating polio completely.
For the past several years the club has contributed a decorated tree to the Festival of Trees fundraiser at Cimarron Middle School in Parker. Here’s a picture of last year’s Rotary Club of Parker tree, covered with snacks from around the world. Attendees bid on the trees, with proceeds going to the school..png)
