Grizz says next week we will have a comprehensive "final exam" based on questions we have already answered. Get your dollars ready.
The Byesville Rotary Club has placed blue pyramids with the Rotary wheel logo in local stores. The club is using these containers to help raise funds that will be used to eradicate polio. The Rotary club encourages local community members to join this effort by putting their change in the blue pyramids.
This year the Bill Gates Foundation offered a challenge grant to Rotary for $200 million. Rotary clubs throughout the USA are committed to matching the grant dollar for dollar. To date through Rotary’s efforts have resulted in a 99% decline in polio cases. The change deposited in the blue pyramids will be used in the last push aimed at eliminating polio.
The club will be holding its Changing of the Guard Dinner on Thursday, June 25, at the Cambridge Country Club. Dinner will be at 6:30 with a social hour beginning at 6:00pm. Anyone interested in attending the dinner can call Nellie Bichard at 740-439-4966.
The club’s next meeting will be June 23 at the Stop Nine Senior Center at 60313 (GPS use 60299) Southgate Road, Byesville. Anyone interested in learning more about the Byesville Rotary can call Membership Chairs Marty Patchen, 740-685-3828, or Larry Miller, 740-439-2767.
