District Governor Elect
Albon Shaw
Rotary Club of Casper 5 Trails, WY
Having joined Rotary in 2014, Albon has enjoyed serving in a variety of roles over the years. His habit of saying “Yes!” was quickly noticed, leading to his nomination to the board of directors soon after joining, and ultimately to serving as President of Casper Five Trails Rotary for 2018–19. That year, his club was honored with the Outstanding Club President of a Medium/Small Club award.
Albon has chaired and served on numerous club committees, including Public Relations and Membership. Internationally, he and his daughter, Elle, traveled to Nicaragua on a service trip with Rotarians from the Gillette Energy Rotary Club, providing school uniforms and supplies, and completing school repairs. He has attended the Rotary International Convention in Toronto, hosted three international exchange students, and supported several other international projects. He also had the honor of participating in the Emerging Leaders program at Zone Institute.
At the district level, Albon has served on the nominating committee for upcoming District Governors and as Assistant Governor for the Central Wyoming Rotary Clubs in Casper and Douglas.
Professionally, Albon has worked in real estate since 2009 and is an Associate Broker with Real Estate Leaders. He also manages Shaw Investments, a real estate investment and construction business that he co-owns with his wife and fellow Rotarian, Kammi Shaw, who hopes to one day resume leading the construction business after experiencing a massive brain bleed on June 2, 2024.
