The Rancho Bernardo Rotary Club will mark World Polio Day (October 24) a week late on October 31 (Halloween) by supporting several members and friends in a skydiving event. Led by Don Glover, whose 80th birthday is also October 31, six people, including Past District Governor Mike Stelman, will jump at the SkyDive San Diego Center in Otay Mesa.
Over 30 masked and socially distanced Rotarians and friends will cheer them on while complying with all local regulations. One of the club's members, Jo Casterline, who is a polio survivor and 91 years old, will be in attendance and will not be jumping only because her health care provider doesn’t think that’s a good idea! The photo above shows Don’s first jump - five years ago on his 75th birthday. His enthusiastic leadership in arranging this event has been the key to motivating others to participate. All are looking forward to supporting this vitally important Rotary cause.
