The Mountain Echoes Choir, under the direction of Estes Park Elementary School music teacher Jenna Olschlager, have prepared a wide variety of songs to get us in the mood for the Christmas holiday season. They will carol at the regular meeting of the Rotary Club of Estes Park on Thursday, December 4. Parents and friends are welcome to attend and enjoy the performance.
Mountain Echoes is a group of students in Grades 3, 4, and 5 who volunteer one hour per week of their time to sing after school.

"In Rotary, December is Family Month. Looking back on my years as a Rotarian, I have seen how important family is in Rotary - and how important Rotary can be to our families .... I hope that in this Rotary year, many of you will encourage your family members to join Rotary, Rotaract, or Interact. Bringing you family into Rotary doesn't just Light Up Rotary - it lights up your own lives as well."
Gary C.K. Huang, 2014-15 President, Rotary International
