August 7. In Newfoundland, you kiss the cod, and I have done so. So, I must visit Dawson City to kiss the toe! Again, RI President McInally’s speech makes me proud to say I am a Rotarian!

Announcements
This month's Rotary theme
Literacy
Rotary and Literacy
More than 775 million people over the age of 15 are illiterate. That’s 17 percent of the world’s adult population.
Rotary’s goal is to strengthen the capacity of communities to support basic education and literacy, reduce gender disparity in education, and increase adult literacy. We support education for all children and literacy for children and adults.
Rotary and Rotarians take action to empower educators to inspire learning at all ages.
Material Suggestions and Greeter Messages Always Needed!
Please feel free to forward an approx. 150 - 200 word message or any material suggestions in an e-mail, or in a Word document, along with a JPeg picture or two, to E-Club Administration Chair, Kitty Bucsko.
We'd love to hear from you!

WORLD POLIO DAY RESOURCES
World Polio Day is a time for Rotary members, public health advocates, and all who want a world free from polio to come together, recognize our progress in the fight to end polio, and talk about the actions we need to take in order to end polio for good!
***
To help you organize your World Polio Day event, use the tools on this webpage to share the message we can and we will end polio for good.
Here are sample social media notices.
Eradicating polio isn’t easy, but making history never is. This #WorldPolioDay, join @Rotary and partners in the global fight to #EndPolio for good: endpol.io/wpd
Trying to eliminate the second human disease might seem like an audacious goal, but Rotary members are tenacious. This #WorldPolioDay, join our tenacious fight. Together, we #EndPolio. endpol.io/wpd
With support from donors, @Rotary and partners immunize over 400 million children every year from polio. Donate to @EndPolioNow on #WorldPolioDay and it will be matched 2-to-1. Triple your impact now: endpol.io/give #EndPolio
