Greater Cheyenne Chamber of Commerce Business Journal Q3 2015 | Page 45

W hen I moved to Cheyenne in 2006, there were many factors that I considered. And while costs, climate, education and culture topped my list, I have grown to love Cheyenne for its commitment to community. Cheyenne residents have a deep sense of pride in collaborating and encouraging each other. They are incredibly generous with their time and financial support for a variety of groups from children and animals to the arts and health. Indeed, the community spirit is visible throughout the year. My position at the Laramie County Library System gives me the opportunity to witness the Cheyenne’s charitable spirit first-hand. Each day I work with a business owner, nonprofit employee, or entrepreneur who is committed to giving Cheyenne residents every possible opportunity for education and self-improvement. And each day I am reminded of the sheer number of volunteers and donors it takes to make a nationally recognized library operate efficiently and effectively. The Laramie County Library is a true community hub where many neighborhood alliances form and grow. I have a front-row seat each day that reminds me of how blessed we are to live in a city where so many people are dedicated to making a better life for someone else. I would encourage anyone contemplating Cheyenne as a home to spend some time investigating the ways we support each other. You will be impressed by the charitable spirit of this community. The Laramie County Library can help you get comfortable with the Cheyenne community quickly!
