Meeting Report 3436
The Rotary Club of Murray Bridge celebrated Christmas at the Murray Bridge Golf Club on Tuesday evening with their families, friends, and Paul Harris Fellows. The children received gifts from Father Christmas, we were entertained by the Harmony Trio and sang carols. Sabine Jericho delivered a Christmas message, celebrated a special birthday and the two Jenny's and Simon read the Night before Christmas story. Chair for the night Robin Le Gallez (on behalf of President Elect John Whimpress) kept the night moving and President Sue wished everyone a Merry Xmas. The Theme of the slide show working in the background was the number of projects the club had undertaken in the first part of this Rotary Year proof of the activity under severe adversity coping with Covid as we did the last two years or so. Murray Bridge is certainly A Club of Action.

End Polio Now
In 1985 Rotary launched PolioPlus to immunize every child in the world against polio. Working with our partners and members of the global health community, together we will end polio.
Through the science of vaccines, Rotary & partners have saved nearly 19 million children from becoming paralyzed by polio. Learn more about our work to End Polio Now and how you can get involved: https://on.rotary.org/3eqtrrr
Rotary has been working to eradicate polio for more than 35 years, and we’ve made incredible progress in the fight to rid the world of it forever.
It’s crucial to eradicate polio from the last two countries where it remains endemic and to keep other countries polio-free.
If all eradication efforts stopped today, within 10 years, polio could paralyze as many as 200,000 children each year.
What is polio?
Polio, or poliomyelitis, is a paralyzing and potentially deadly infectious disease that most commonly affects children under the age of 5. The virus spreads from person to person, typically through contaminated water. It can then attack the nervous system.
