About Us

The Estes Valley Sunrise Rotary

The Estes Valley Sunrise Rotary Club conducts two major fundraisers each year: the Estes Park Labor Day Arts and Crafts Show and the Autumn Gold Festival.   Proceeds from these events are used to fund grants to area nonprofits and scholarships for graduates of local high schools.

Our Sponsors donate goods and services to help the Sunrise Rotary conduct these events. Sponsors also contribute scholarship funds for local area high school graduates.  Click here to learn more about our Sponsors.

The Estes Park Labor Day Arts and Crafts Show is made possible by the many volunteer hours donated by local Rotarians, their families, and neighbors.  Their efforts enable us to hold a show recognized for being well organized and supportive of the merchants participating in the show.

The Estes Valley Sunrise Rotary and the Estes Valley Sunrise Rotary Foundation collectively distribute over $40,000 each year to area nonprofits and local high school graduates.
