Rotary International Appoints First Woman President
 
 
Jennifer E. Jones, a member of the Rotary Club of Windsor-Roseland, Ontario, Canada, has been nominated to become Rotary International’s president for 2022-23, a selection that will make her the first woman to hold that office in the organization’s 115-year history.
 
Congratulations Jennifer!
Get Your Mind Out of the Gutter Contest
 
Cheyenne Rotary proudly funded 12 GutterBins for storm water filtration in downtown Cheyenne (plus others in town) thanks to generous Rotarians, matching grants from Rotary District 5440, and grants from Laramie County Conservation District (LCCD). Maintenance and emptying of these wouldn’t be possible without that partnership with the LCCD, and we are grateful for their support!

The contest “Get Your Mind in the Gutter”™ asks you to 1) Like the Laramie County Conservation District’s Facebook page and 2) Guess the number of pounds captured from August 2019 to the beginning of August, 2020 in all 12 GutterBins by sending a Facebook Message. You can also email your guess to: info@lccdnet.org. One guess allowed per person and there is no age limit. The winner will receive a $200 credit toward their Board of Public Utilities water bill. If the winner is not a BOPU customer, they can “gift” the credit to a friend or family member who is a BOPU customer.

The competition starts August 14th and will end August 31st at 4 p.m. Winner will be announced September 1st, 2020.

Make your best guess, friends and neighbors, about how much “yuck” these are keeping out of our waterways!

Family Promise of Cheyenne assists homeless families with minor children. Family Promise of Cheyenne is the sole family only shelter in Laramie County and has partnered with local faith communities to provide shelter since 2001.

Families living in their cars, in a trailer without heat and running water or in a motel on a night-by night basis are who we help.  About one-third of Wyoming’s homeless families are living in Cheyenne. 1 in every 4 homeless person in Wyoming is a minor. In Laramie County, every year, there are more than 200 homeless children in the school system. Homeless families with children in Laramie County continues to be a disturbing reality. Family Promise of Cheyenne partners with numerous faith-based communities as well as Peak Wellness Center, Dads Making a Difference, Climb Wyoming, the Laramie County School Districts, and many other organizations and individuals in the community in order to serve families with children in need.
