THIS WEEK - CLUB ASSEMBLY
All business this week. You never know what might come up! In person or ZOOM.
LOBSTER GHOST AUCTION ENDS
The online auction of the LobsterGhost is closed. 
 
We had over 300 participants from 28 clubs. We raised $127,000 for Rotary Good! These are much higher numbers than our auction management company thought we would do!
 
The Rotary Club of Boise Sunrise is thankful for the very strong support for this event.
 
This was our first online District 5400 auction.  I am pleased. Even though we had to deal with Covid which dampens everyone's spirits; we had more than half of the clubs involved, many generous cash donations, broad variety of auction items and spirited bidding on a lot of them. 
 
We thank those who bid on something, made a donation or simply took the time to view the website. 
 
We welcome comments and ideas for improvement. We plan to develop this into a major annual fundraiser for all clubs in the District to pursue their ambitions of doing Rotary good, long after Covid!
 
Thank You!
 
In the spirit of Rotary, Karl Klokke, Chair

JOIN POLIO PLUS SOCIETY
As we look forward to World Polio Day on October 24th, consider joining the District 5400 Polio Plus Society.
 
It’s easy to become a member. All you need to do is open a new email, paste in the
text below and send to District PolioPlus Chair Mary Reiman mary.reiman@outlook.com

I pledge to donate a minimum of $100 each year until the world is
certified polio free by the World Health Organization. Please enroll
me in the District 5400 PolioPlus Society.

The Gates Foundation is currently matching donations 2 to 1 making this an even better
opportunity, as well as receiving Paul Harris Credit for your donation. If you donate
before World Polio Day (October 24th, 2020), Zone 26/27 will DOUBLE your recognition
points.

The easiest way to donate is to log in at https://my.rotary.org then click DONATE:
● The “easy” way to continue as a PolioPlus Society member is by utilizing the
monthly payment option. Click the Polio Fund, and select “Recurring Donation”.
For frequency choose “monthly” and for amount choose “other” and enter $10 in
the “enter other amount” box.
● If you are already donating $100 or more per year to PolioPlus, then join the
Society and get the recognition you have earned.

Help Rotarians reach every last child and achieve our vision of a polio free world.
District 5400 accepted the challenge to have 50 new PolioPlus Society members by Oct
24th.
