Rotarian of the Week 11-17-10

Our Rotarian of the Week grew up in Cedar City, Utah, and her high school mascot was the Impalas.  Our special Rotarian enjoys Rotary because of the idea of service above self and the ability to tap human and financial resources to fill global humanitarian needs.  She also appreciates the exchange programs, the weekly meetings, and having an opportunity to meet and work with so many committed and civic minded people.  Her first job was ironing uniform shirts for the National Forest Service workers in Yellowstone Park for 25 cents a shirt.  Today, Teresa Moore is the Senior Planner for Cheyenne Parks and Recreation.  She has been married to her husband Gary for 34 years and they have two grown kids.  Her favorite food is Chinese or Asian food. She also enjoys gardening, bicycling, quilting, decorating, reading and volunteering.   Teresa’s most memorable Rotary experience has been serving as our Club Secretary and getting to work with many diverse and committed people.  Other than family, her proudest accomplishment is securing the funding to build a new community park and activity center in South Cheyenne.  Teresa has been a member of our Club since 2002 when she was sponsored by Aimee Reese.  Since that time, Teresa has been very active helping with numerous projects.  Most importantly, Teresa has served as our Club Secretary since 2006.  In appreciation for her dedication to our Club, the Sergeant at Arms presented Teresa with a gift certificate to Twin Dragon and a holiday book.
