President’s Message

Happy Tuesday Rotarians,

Who’s joining me tonight at The Rec bowling alley to End Polio Now? That’s right, tonight is Bowl-io for Polio – a fun night of bowling with fellow Rotarians from around town all in an effort to eradicate polio from the planet. We are so close! It’s not too late to register for the event AND you can pay at the door as well. 

I’m looking forward to seeing you tonight and tomorrow at Willamette ESD for our weekly club meeting. 

See you tomorrow,

President Elise Bauman
Rotary Club of Salem
