Pints for Polio Event
Pints for Polio Event

Raise a Pint. Help End Polio.

What if enjoying a great local craft beer could help change lives worldwide?

Join the Rotary Club of Weston & Wayland for our annual Pints for Polio fundraiser:

Thursday, October 22

6:00 to 8:00 pm

The Mighty Squirrel Biergarten @ The Farm at Gore Place in Watertown 

This casual gathering brings together Rotarians, friends, neighbors, and community supporters for an evening of fellowship, great conversation, and a shared commitment to a polio-free world. There is no admission fee, and Mighty Squirrel will donate $1 for every beer sold during the event. Guests are also invited to make a suggested donation of $20, with all proceeds supporting Rotary's global fight to eradicate polio.

Thanks to decades of work by Rotary and its partners, polio cases have been reduced by more than 99 percent worldwide. We are closer than ever to ending this devastating disease, but the job is not finished. Every pint purchased and every donation made helps protect children and bring us one step closer to a polio-free future.

Bring your family, friends, and fellow craft beer enthusiasts, enjoy food from the on-site food truck, and be part of something bigger than yourself.

Drink beer. Do good. End polio.

We hope to see you on October 22!
