From Charlie Kelly: "The Evansville Club has the opportunity to participate in a Polio National Immunization Day (NID) in India from February 9 – 17, 2007. The cost of this trip is approximately $3000 and volunteers will need several shots in order to go.  The area where we will be immunizing will be around the city of Delhi in Northern India.  If possible, the organizers would like to have commitments from the Evansville Club as soon as possible.  We need to know who is interested in going and who can provide financial support.  Please let Charlie Kelly, 436-9288, know if you have any interest in volunteering to go on the NID or in helping to finance a member who is willing to go."
