As of Oct. 30, we have raised $1209 for Polio!

 

What if improving your own health could also help protect a child from a disease that should exist only in history books?

From November 20 through January 9, join Rotary District 5150, family members, friends, and our community for the Rotary Fitness Challenge for End Polio Now—an inspiring 8-week journey to improve our health while helping create a healthier world.

The challenge begins during the Season of Giving and carries us into the New Year—a time when many of us make resolutions to live healthier, more active lives. This year, let your resolution have an even greater purpose. Every step you take can help protect children from polio while improving your own health and well-being.

This challenge is for everyone, regardless of age or fitness level. Whether you enjoy walking, hiking, cycling, swimming, yoga, pickleball, strength training, or simply being more active each day, you can participate at your own pace.
