Area Rotary Clubs gathered on Wednesday, October 23, the night before World Polio Day, at Vista Lanes in Yorkville to help raise money to fight Polio. Led by Stephen Turnbull (Rotary Club of Utica) and Steve Karboski (North Utica-Whitestown Rotary), over 50 bowlers and guests were involved in the second annual ‘Pin Down Polio’ event and they helped to raise $1,814.00. Thanks to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, who matches $2 for every $1 raised, that total increased to $5,442.00 towards Polio Eradication!
