As we all think about pitching in to help with Holly’s local initiative for Polio Plus, we might reflect briefly on our club’s long history joining RI in this fight and seeing how the battle has creatively developed. Originally, our club had an event where we made a noticeable contribution far beyond the current annual effort. RI originally thought we could do it pretty much alone; it turned into something with many more players such as the Gates Foundation.  Now, our most recent Rotarian magazine has told of efforts in villages to have local women give inoculations to in part overcome local fear and misinformation. Rotary has never lost focus; we must try to do the same because we remember it is all about the children.
