Mountain Aires will sing at the Rotary Club of Estes Park on Thursday, December 3rd, at their regular noon meeting. Their program includes Songs of the Season, which will energize and inspire us for this holiday season.
Formed in 1978 as the Mountain Aires Women’s Club Chorus, Mountain Aires continues to be sponsored by the Estes Park Women’s Club. Over the years, these talented ladies have performed for a variety of organizations, senior residences, and churches, presenting a variety of musical styles and genres.
We hope that you enjoy their concert!
Please note that all family members, friends and other community members are very welcome to join us for the performance.

If you are involved with social media (Facebook, etc.) and would like to receive our messages please let me know before the end of the year.

Rotary Quote of the Week
By sending joy out into the world, we do not sacrifice it for ourselves - we only multiply it. As we enter this season of giving, let us multiply the gifts we have been given by sharing them with others. Through acts of caring, kindness, and generosity, in our clubs and through our Foundation, we become and remain a gift to the world.
