Hear about Mt. Kilimanjaro climb Jan. 8 at Lake Wylie Rotary club meeting

LAKE WYLIE -- 

John Tabor will present “6 Days Above the Clouds” during the Jan. 8 Lake Wylie Rotary Club meeting at noon at Good Samaritan United Methodist Church, 5220 Crowders Cove Lane.

Tabor of the Charlotte Rotary Club documented his trip Sept. 10-15 with 30 Rotarians from District 7680 to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. The climb was an effort to raise awareness and money for Rotary International’s End Polio Now campaign. It is estimated more than $100,000 was raised to eradicate polio as a result of each climber’s contributions and efforts to secure sponsors.

Guests are welcome. Lunch, catered by Christopher’s, costs $9. For more information, visit lwrotaryclub.org.

On Jan. 15, Buz McKim, NASCAR artist and historian for the NASCAR Hall of Fame in Charlotte, will speak to the club.

McKim wrote for the monthly publication “Racing Milestones” for nine years and has added his expertise to nearly 100 books, including the best-selling “NASCAR Vault” and its companion publication, “NASCAR Families.”
