Overview
Park City Sunrise Rotary Club is a member of Rotary International and comprised of Park City area men and women who are leaders in the community. Sunrise Rotary members are involved in organizing and producing community service projects including two Household Hazardous Waste Days with Recycle Utah and the annual longest Shotski competition on Park City’s historic Main Street to raise funds for the Club’s grants program. The Club awards $30,000 in grant funds annually to worthy nonprofits and $4,000 in college scholarships to students in Park City and South Summit school districts. Members make dinners for 50 homeless teens every month who live at the Volunteers of America shelter facility in Salt Lake City. All Sunrisers believe in the Rotary motto of “Service Above Self.” Sunrisers value supporting one another through fellowship as much as they value service, resulting in a stronger, richer community.
