Quota members share the values of serving and encouraging others, developing friendships, and promoting international understanding.
We are a nonprofit organization, helping hearing and speech impaired individuals and disadvantaged women and children. We also have a Medical Supply Loan Closet open to all residents of Estes and visitors for a nominal fee. Other local efforts include providing education scholarships and service to seniors.
The club holds several fundraisers throughout the year, including Taste of Estes in April, Geranium Sale in May and the Festival of Trees in December. We meet from 12-1pm twice per month from September through May at the US Bank Building in Estes. We work hard but also value fun and friendship.
One of our most popular events is our Festival of Trees. During the holiday season Estes Park Quota displays over 40 holiday trees decorated by local businesses, artists and Quota members at The Estes Park Resort and
Dunraven Restaurant lobby area. Join us for our kick-off event or the big drawing.

The Loan closet is a non profit service of the Estes Park Quota, whereby sick room and hospital equipment is available to area residents and visitors. Loans are intended to be on a temporary basis, up to 3 months. Items include but are not limited to hospital beds, walkers, toiler risers, canes, crutches, shower chairs, roll-abouts, knee walkers and more. Call to check on availability. Follow the link below for our 2023 volunteer schedule and more information.
In 2019 Quota Club contributed towards the purchase of a new ambulance for Estes Park. This has been a tradition since our club was founded in the 1940's. Since then we have helped purchase an ambulance every 3 years for the Estes Community. This is an important service for our community to have emergency vehicles that can maneuver winding mountain roads and inclement weather to reach those in need.

Estes Park's favorite community event is the annual Rotary Duck Race. On May 6th, almost 10,000 ducks are dumped into the Fall River west of town and float their way to downtown Estes Park. Volunteers collect the ducks and winning ducks are awarded prizes. Adopt a duck and designate it for Estes Park Quota for $25 or 6 for $125. Each duck is a chance to win hundreds of prizes and helps support our organization. Adopt a duck today!
Join us for a special evening of dining and socializing TBD April 2024 at the YMCA of the Rockies, where 20+ restaurants from around the Estes Valley will offer delicious samples showcasing their cuisine. Buy your tickets early at the Visitor Center, MacDonald Book Store or from a Quota member for $25 per person. This yearly event is popular and sells out quickly. Check the EP News for times.
After a snowy winter there is no better way to brighten up your garden than with our spring geranium sale. Watch for sale dates and prices to be posted soon.
Social gatherings include Bunko, Trivia night, wine and cheese tasting, snowshoeing, arts and crafts and more !
