The Le Mars Rotary Club is very excited to be hosting our annual banquet which will be a fundraiser for End Polio Now. The two pilots that flew around the world last year, Peter Tehan and John Ockenfels, to raise money for polio will be our speakers. I have met them several times and heard them speak in Spencer last fall. It is not only a story about their flight, but an emotional message about polio and Rotary's efforts to End Polio Now.
The event will be Thursday evening April 4, 2024 at the Willow Creek Golf Course in Le Mars. Tickets will be $30 with $10 of that going to End Polio Now. This is a fundraiser and it is hoped that your club may raise additional funds for EPN. The Le Mars club has committed an additional $1,000. To register, contact John Schneider
