End Polio Now
Saturday 8, 10am-12 noon To mark the fact that the eradication of polio worldwide is now in sight, Rotary is planting more purple crocus corms which will flower in late February or early March next year. This reflects the purple dye put on the finger of every recipient of the vaccine. Rotary in Wendover will extend the planting originally done in October 2010. If you would like to spend half an hour helping to plant 5000 corms, in Wendover or going to school in Tring but there is no equivalent evening return service. Please please go to www.wendoverrotary.org.uk. contact Arriva if this affects you, www. arrivabus.co.uk, telephone 0344 800 44 11. More bus news Further to the item in the September print edition of Wendover News, the Arriva bus service 55 was taken over by Redline on Monday 5 September so we can still reach Great Missenden, Amersham and Chesham by bus although the last buses are not as late as before.
