World Polio Day Events

World Polio Day is Wednesday October 24, 2018 and Nutley Rotary is celebrating.

Polio has been ALMOST eradicated from the earth and that is worth commemorating.

Pictured here are Rotarians and friends helping to clear out weeds and brush from the Nutley Community Garden.

Our future World Polio Day events are a cleanup of the Outdoor Classroom on October 27 and a Rotary Social on November 8th to share the latest Rotary news with attendees.
