Reign XXXIII

The 33^rd Reign

There are many perceptions of the Imperial Court of the Rocky Mountain Empire (ICRME) and we have heard just about all of them. But out of all of the things you might have heard, is your perception an accurate one. Is it one of grandeur and parades, of performances and entertainment or is one of philanthropic work, continued education based programs and community involvement. Well, all of these things are correct and are part of ICRME's rich history. For Thirty-four years, ICRME has been actively involved in the communities of Northern Colorado through fund raising, education, raising awareness to social and political issues and performing noble deeds. Hundreds and Thousands of dollars are raised by members of ICRME along with members of our communities every year to assist those in need and most of that is done under the leadership of two individuals you, the community elects every April; one week before ICRME's Coronation Ball.

Being elected Emperor or Empress of the Imperial Court of the Rocky Mountain Empire provided us with some amazing opportunities to serve you during our year as well as provided some unprecedented moments and memories for a lifetime. During our year, we saw Monarchs on the covers of publications, announced Denver's 2006 Gay Pride Parade and Family Day and volunteered with C.A.P.'s Art for Life. Thousands of Dollars of product was donated to Urban Peak for direct use in their facility and its clients and ICRME contributed a successful team to AIDS Walk Colorado. Through the White Rose Scholarship Fund, a branch of this organization, $13,000 in Continued Education Scholarships will be awarded. We traveled to over 14 cities and networked and with others in charitable based fields and learned from each other. ICRME was recognized at the Gender Identity Center's annual convention "Gold Rush" as the Friend to the G.I.C.'s Organization of the Year.

Snowball 2006, “Wishes of a Celtic Winter, A Force of Nature”, actively though out the community raised approximately $16,000 in funds and products donated to its charities; Urban Peak and the Colorado AIDS Project.

King of Hearts 2007, “GOTHAM, A Force of the Mind” brought creativity and whimsy to an entertaining evening introducing three candidates for the offices of Emperor and Empress XXXIV.

Coronation 34, “HEAVEN, A Force To Be Reckoned With”, brought in over 400 participants, including the presence of the new titular head of the International Court System, Empress Nicole the Great, Queen Mother of the Americas. Two Heirs Apparent to Empress Nicole were named from Denver that evening; Empress XXIII – Sydney Andrews and Emperor XXXIII – Michael Vrooman.

We have forged and continued many relationships with those in our community and are extremely proud of the accomplishments of the Organization as a whole with our communities. It is important to remember that you elect the position of Emperor and Empress. We took that seriously as community servants. We worked with you and for you and it was an honor and a privilege. Thank you for the opportunity.
