E-Ride-icate Polio

The Polio Plus Committee of the Rotary Club of Cheyenne is planning a fundraiser in the form of a motorcycle poker run scheduled for Saturday, June 15th.  It's called "The e-RIDE-icate Polio Poker Run".

For those unfamiliar with a poker run, participants register, pay their entry fee, and sign a liability waiver at the starting point*; then ride to four or five different, designated locations*, picking up a poker card at each stop*; and the best poker hand at the last stop* wins the poker run.  This event will start at High Country Motor Sports, and end at Am-Vets (both located on East Lincolnway).

The Committee's goals are:

· to introduce new people to Rotary,

· to make people aware of Rotary International's efforts to end polio, worldwide, and

to expand our fundraising beyond the scope of our Club members.

The Committee is looking for sponsorships and volunteers (at each location - that's what the "*" is for – volunteers needed).  Although we say that we're looking for support outside the Club, we certainly wouldn't turn a Cllub memeber down if they wanted to be a sponsor and/or a volunteer.

Remember, we're "this close" -- -- and gettin' closer.

Please contact a Committee member if you're interested:  Mick Finnegean, Janet Lewis, Reed Shafer, Erin Begeman, Lin Davenport, Donna Beaman, Desiree Hannabach, Norma VanMatre, and Judy Weickum.
