All Rotary Board, Committee and noon Membership meetings will only meet through Zoom Virtual Meeting format until January 15, 2021. This decision was made by the Board on November 18 to protect members from the spike of Covid-19 cases in Laramie County.

To join a Membership meeting follow the Zoom meetings information below.

Double Your Donation to the Local Foundation

The Cheyenne Rotary Club Foundation, founded in 1988, was created exclusively for the benefit of the Cheyenne Rotary Club to enable our Club to support community projects throughout Laramie County. Projects supported by the Foundation have included music education through the Cheyenne Symphony, the Veterans Center at LCCC, protective equipment for Cheyenne police, and character development books for students. With your gifts, we can do even more! When the endowment reaches $1 million, our Club will be able to contribute up to $50,000 per year to local projects. And this year, not only are your donations matched by a $30,000 challenge gift from Rotary Club funds, because of the CARES Act a larger portion of your donation may also be tax deductible. Help Rotary make a difference in our community, and donate today!
