Rotary Club of LaGrange once again participated in the International Festival held in Downtown LaGrange. The festival is a celebration of the cultural diversity in our community, and highlighted the international community living and working in LaGrange. Interact and Rotaract students were joined by Rotarians to staff the Rotary Booth. Information on RI's End Polio Now Campaign was shared with members of the community as well as other programs that the three local Rotary organizations offer. Other booths had food, art, and artifacts and cultural dress of the countries represented. Music, crafts and games also played a role in the festival. This festival was another means of participating in our community and promoting Rotary.
The Interact students also took this opportunity to offer bracelets that they had made for contributions towards the RI Polio Plus Campaign.

LaGrange's Rotaract and two Interact clubs had their banners and materials displayed for the day's events.
The day of the event was extremely hot, the partial shade did help a bit.
The banners from the 3 groups were set up and drew a lot of attention from the community members.
