Rotarian of the Week 11-10-10

Our Rotarian of the Week grew up in Cheyenne, Wyoming and attended Central High School.  He enjoys Rotary because of the local and global reach of the organization, especially in supporting students and the worldwide eradication of polio.  His first job was shagging balls and cleaning clubs at the Cheyenne Country Club for $1 an hour.  Today, Chris Barlow is a Senior Developer for Aegis Analytical Corp. and also operates his own consulting business Opportune Solutions.  Chris and his wife Patty have been married 12 years and have two kids.  Chris’ favorite meal is steak medium rare and baked potato.  Chris enjoys spending time with his family and golfing and skiing. His most memorable Rotary experience was attending District Conference in Cheyenne his first year in Rotary.  Other than family, his proudest accomplishment is leading a youth group to Scotland after raising money for the trip through Sunday breakfasts and other fundraisers.  Chris was sponsored into our Club by Dr. Duane Kline nearly 20 years ago.  Since that time, Chris has been very active helping with numerous programs and committees like maintaining our Club website and putting together our annual National Honor Society Insert for three years.  In appreciation of his service, the Sergeant of Arms presented Chris with a gift certificate and a sleeve of golf balls.
