Speakers Wow Audience
The guest speakers at the October lunch meeting were Bic & Simone from the Lindy Hop Dance Club.
They gave a fascinating talk on the development of the dance, with music and a spectacular display of the energetic dance.
Honorary President Alex Hughes thanked the couple and added that he would join them if he could find half their energy.

Ridding the world of POLIO
Local schools planted 5,000 crocus corms in recognition of Rotary's Purple4Polio campaign to eradicate Polio worldwide.
Purple is the colour of the dye put onto children's fingers who have been vaccinated
When the campaign started there were 350,000 cases detected annually: that is now reduced to just 50 cases in two countries
