Welcome to December! Mountain Echoes Choir to entertain this week
 
 
It is the season to carol, to sing our holiday songs.
 
To help us get into the holiday mood, Mountain Echoes, a student choir, will sing at the Rotary Club of Estes Park on Thursday, December 1, at their regular noon meeting. Mountain Echoes is an after-school choir for students in Grades 3-5 at the Estes Park Elementary School. Mountain Echoes is directed by Mrs. Jenna Williams and accompanied by Mr. Mike Williams. 
 
Mountain Echoes sang holiday songs for the Estes Park Tree Lighting Ceremony this year. They have sung the national anthem for the boys’ varsity basketball game and were chosen to sing the national anthem at a Rockies baseball game last year. In addition, they will be singing at the elementary school Christmas Sing-Along in December. 
 
Rotary is an organization of business and professional leaders who provide humanitarian service and help to build goodwill and peace in the world. There are 1.2 million Rotary members in 34,000 Rotary clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas. Rotary clubs have been serving communities worldwide for more than a century. Rotary clubs around the world initiate projects that address critical issues such as conflict resolution, hunger, poverty, disease and illiteracy.
 
The Rotary Club of Estes Park meets Thursdays at the Rodeway Inn in Estes Park. Please note that parents and friends of the students are more than welcome to attend and enjoy the performance. Visitors interested in learning more about Rotary and its programs are welcome to attend. Buffet is served at 11:30 a.m., the Rotary business meeting opens at noon, and the program begins at 12:30 p.m. 
 
Did you see Lucky?
 
 
Our Duck Race trademark yellow Jeep and mascot Lucky the Duck were again part of the Catch the Glow Parade in Estes Park. It surely seemed like a record-breaking turnout for the parade and great awareness for our 29th Annual Estes Park Rotary Duck Race on May 6, 2017.

Rotary Quote of the Week
 
"Through our vocations and in our clubs, in our communities, and across continents, we are touching the lives of people we don't know and might never meet. And in every part of the world, every single day, whether they know it or not, people are living better, safer, and healthier lives because of the work of Rotary."
 
               - John F. Germ, 2016-17 Rotary International President
