Peter Teahen and John Ockenfels raised awareness for polio eradication by piloting a single engine aircraft all the way around the globe! 
Peter and John departed from Cedar Rapids, Iowa May 5, 2023 in a Cessna T210M (single engine) airplane. Along the way, they attended events and encourage support of ending polio forever throughout the world.
 
YOU can promote the completed flight, start conversations, and encourage Polio funds for Rotary with friends and strangers!  
 
Rotarians and friends in D6000 and D5970 are promoting awareness and this fundraising effort. Donations will go toward PolioPlus Fund. 
 
Peter and John arrived home July 30 and are reunited with their spouses!
 
The crowd moving out to greet the brave Rotarian pilots!
