Construction of the new Estes Valley Community Center is running right on schedule for a January 2018 opening. The concrete footers for the building foundation were completed in late March, making way for the installation of the vertical beams. Now that the building is growing vertically, the features of the building are starting to become recognizable. The entrance can be made out on the northeast side of the framing. The indoor running track is starting to take shape on the upper level. The large, open double gymnasium can be seen on the lower level. And the plumbing for the new features of the Aquatic Center has been installed between the current Aquatic Center and the new building.

We are excited to announce that the Estes Valley Recreation and Park District (EVRPD) has been awarded a program grant from the Colorado Youth Tennis Foundation. The award will be designated for our summer youth tennis lessons, which will go toward instructor costs and equipment. This summer we are excited to offer Ten and Under Tennis Lessons for 5 – 10 year olds. This is a chance for children to learn real tennis while having a lot of fun. Ten and Under Tennis follows almost every other youth sport in that it uses racquets, balls and courts that are sized for children so they enjoy the game right from the start.
EVRPD’s 10 and Under Tennis Lessons will have three trained instructors who have attended an interactive Coach Youth Tennis workshop, taught by the National USTA-certified trainers. This workshop highlights skill development, progressions and child-centered activities. In addition to effectively using the red, orange and green balls in the development of a player, the workshop incorporates athletic development activities, instant rally progression for all ages, and fun games and drills – including the top 10 games every coach should know.
