We still are looking for a volunteer or volunteers to assist in the sound booth on Sunday mornings. Randy and Harley are unavailable through November.  Experience is not necessary: we will train you. If you or someone you know would be willing to volunteer to help us in this capacity, please contact Rev.

Important! Please Read!

We have been experiencing a growing issue with peanut residue in the building, especially in the library.  Please, do not bring peanut products into the building, and if your little ones enjoy their peanut butter snacks before coming, please be sure their hands are clean before they touch surfaces used by everyone.  We are seeing almost daily allergic reactions, so we ask you to please be diligent. It may be an inconvenience to you, but it can be life-threatening to those who are allergic. 

Upcoming Events

Come join the fun at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Cheyenne, 3005 Thomes Avenue, on November 2, 2019  from 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. There will be snacks, drinks, laughs and prizes! 

Our suggested donation is $15 for adults and $5 for children under 13.  We will provide FREE childcare for those children not playing bingo. 

In addition to bingo, Gene will run an optional Texas Poker room.  There  will be two poker games offered.  The first will be a Fun TABLE using $20 in free chips, and no re-buys.  The second poker game will be a cash table with purchased chips, $20 buy in, unlimited rebuys with a minimum of $5. Both games have a 50 cent single blind, 50 cent limit on deal and flop, $1 limit on turn and river.  Event fee of $15 does not include purchase of chips for the  cash game. Gene will explain poker vocabulary and how to play.
