Rotarian of the Week 05-18-11

Our Rotarian of the Week grew up in Wolf, Wyoming, where her parents operated the Eaton Ranch, the oldest dude ranch in the country.  In fact, her great great grandfather knew Teddy Roosevelt.  Our special Rotarian attended Sheridan High School, home of the Broncs and Lady Broncs.  Her first job was babysitting at the age of 12, earning $4 / hour.  After High School, our Rotarian of the Month attended Wayne State College, in Wayne, Nebraska, where she played college soccer and majored in sociology.  After college, she attended the University of Wyoming College of Law.  She went onto serve two years as a law clerk at the Laramie County District Court. Today, Amanda Esch is an attorney at the Cheyenne firm of Davis & Cannon, where she practices civil litigation, employment law and some transactional work.  Amanda and her husband Luke will celebrate their 1 year anniversary in August.  In her free time, Amanda enjoys running, the great outdoors, and spending time with friends and family.  Her favorite meal is steak, rare, with artichoke and hollandaise sauce.  Amanda likes Rotary for how many people are willing to invest time and energy into projects and programs.  Her most memorable Rotary experience was working on the National Honor Society Insert this year putting together articles about our Club’s activities.  Her proudest accomplishment is to have a good job, health, family.  Amanda has been a member of our Club since June 2010.  Since that time she has served on our New Member Committee and chaired our National Honor Society Insert Committee.  In recognition of her service to our Club, the Sergeant at Arms presented her with a gift certificate and a special lapel pin.
