The 3rd Annual Ride to Eradicate Polio will be held on the York County Rail Trail! Riders will need to meet in downtown York at the Lafayette Plaza at W. Philadelphia St. and Pershing St. at 2:00 p.m.
 
Ride starts at York Heritage Rail Trail  (12 miles round trip- Lafayette Park to Howard Tunnel back to Lafayette Park)
  • Meet at Lafayette Plaza (on Pershing at E. Philadelphia)
  • Water break on the trail between Glatfelter Statin & Brillhart Station
  • Upon return to Lafayette Plaza there will be refreshments
The cost to participate in the ride is $50. Your $50 donation will go directly to The Rotary Foundation under your name. All registered participants get a Ride to Eradicate Polio t-shirt!
 
There couldn’t be a better time for this fundraiser. The first case of polio in the United States in nearly a decade was detected in New York in 2022. Your donation helps Rotary, and its partners, reach every child with the polio vaccine. Thanks to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, your contribution will be tripled, getting us even closer to a polio-free world.
