A small b
ut enthusiastic group of Rotarians in Kayaks put to water from Mutual Riverfront Park, in Buffalo, NY on the Buffalo River to participate in the 3rd Annual Paddle for Polio, kicking off the campaign to raise funds for Polio Plus, and raise awareness to the issue of eradicating polio from our planet. With perfect summer weather, PDG Scott Marcin, joined up by DGE Joanne Serkuyn and Lockport Rotarian Paul Lehman, paddled towards Lake Erie and back to the park, sharing some Rotary fellowship, getting a little wet raising funds for the Polio Plus program, and raising the public’s awareness to the need to keep going in our effort to make polio a distant memory.
We are this close, and after a day in the water, hopefully we are a little closer.
