PolioPlus, Now to June 2026.  Today, in the Rotary Club of Hilo's 105th year, I am so excited about our future.  I will be attending the Rotary international convention in Taipei Taiwan in June 2026.  The week before the Convention I will join over 300 other Rotarians to ride around Taiwan to raise money for Polio Plus.    I have learned that International Rotarians are more alike than we are different.  They care about their communities, they care about the world, they care about others.  They are committed to do more through Rotary.  I am too.  And I am going to represent District 5000 and Hawaii by riding over 500 kilometers the week before the convention to raise money for Polio Plus.  Please support my efforts by donating to this effort!  Mahalo and Aloha, Newton  https://raise.rotary.org/Newton-Chu/challenge031
