Tom Rowe wins 2021 Bracket Challenge in Support End Polio Now
 
Who knew that Past President Tom Rowe
was the Basketball Guru of Lewisville in the
2021 Bracket Challenge to End Polio Now!
 

We had a little March Madness Fun?  The bracket challenge winner gets 50% of the winnings!  Don't worry,  you don't have to be a basketball guru to play. That's what they said.  Did Tom end up guessing most of the time on these? Or, does he have some hidden expertise? Congratulations TOM!
