Cochrane Toyota Teams Up with Rotary Club for the Ride to End Polio

Posted on June 3, 2025

Cochrane Toyota is proud to team up with the Rotary Club of Cochrane to sponsor the Ride to End Polio, happening June 4–25. We’ll be following behind Cochrane’s own Dan Paarsmarkt, a 61-year-old retiree taking on an incredible 1,600 km cycling journey from the Northwest Territories to the Montana border—all in support of a world free from polio. 🌍

Pedaling for a Purpose

Dan’s ride is more than a personal challenge—it’s a mission to make a global impact. Through Rotary International, 100% of the funds raised go toward providing life-saving polio vaccines to children in need around the world. Every kilometer Dan pedals brings us one step closer to eradicating this disease forever.

Cheer on Dan and Make a Difference

We’re thrilled to support Dan on this inspiring journey, and we encourage the Cochrane community to cheer him on every step of the way. Whether it’s a message of encouragement, sharing the story, or learning more about how to contribute, your support helps create a world without polio. 💪❤️

Together, let’s keep making a difference—one pedal at a time.
