25 Years & Counting at EPRD: Maren Schreiber!

It is with great pleasure and honor to celebrate Maren Schreiber, who has worked for Evergreen Park & Recreation District for 25 years! Maren has built the INSPIRE (Special Needs) Program from the ground up! At INSPIRE, there are opportunities to fit the interests, schedules, and needs of the community. The program offers everything from Therapeutic Horseback Riding to Bowling Club to Swim Lessons to Dinner at the Melting Pot, and even more!

 “With Maren as its leader, the INSPIRE group is always on the move,” says colleague Klaire Funderburg. Maren also works with the community to fundraise throughout the calendar year. Some events that Maren is involved in are the Ice Melt Contest, Kid Triathlon, and Polar Plunge. Aside from programming, her colleagues say “Maren is one of the most empathetic, dedicated, and thoughtful people to work with.” Maren is a beacon of positivity, and the District celebrates all she has accomplished and all she continues to work towards!

Learn more about INSPIRE here or contact MSchreiber@eprd.co for more information on paid part-time opportunities or volunteer hours.

Preconstruction Work Along CO 74 in March!

IMG_8067

EPRD and ESCO Construction will soon begin the Evergreen Lake North Trail improvement project along CO 74 (Evergreen Parkway) along the northeast portion of Evergreen Lake in Evergreen. The initial preconstruction phase of the project includes potholing to locate all existing utilities. Potholing will have crews on CO 74 and will require daily alternate lane closures to keep crews and the traveling public safe. The preconstruction potholing phase will start in late March and last 1-2 weeks. Construction of the support wall and the trail will begin later, in the early part of May. Please note that the construction phase traffic plan is different than the potholing traffic plan, and can be found on EPRD’s website here.

The project's goal is to create a long-term solution to ongoing infrastructure issues to improve safety, accessibility, and connectivity in our community. While this trail improvement will produce many community benefits, the project will impact vehicle travel and pedestrian access on the north side of Evergreen Lake in 2023. We appreciate your patience during construction.

ELNT Construction Coming Soon to Evergreen Lake!
Rendering ELNT


We are proud to announce that Evergreen Lake North Trail construction work is scheduled to begin by May 2023 and is expected to be completed in late 2023.  Preliminary preconstruction potholing to locate utilities under the existing trail will begin in late March and will last 1-2 weeks. Construction is expected to begin in early May. For up-to-date information about traffic impacts, please visit https://www.codot.gov/projects/co74-evergreen-lake-trail.


The ELNT Project was created in response to the Spring 2016 closure of the trail along CO 74 on the north side of Evergreen Lake between Upper Bear Creek Road and Evergreen Dam. The project will improve bike/pedestrian connectivity and accessibility between Evergreen Lake and downtown Evergreen while fixing urgent drainage and stability issues under this critical trail linkage. Improvements to the ELNT include widening the trail, creating improved fishing opportunities and wildlife viewing, and providing for drainage improvements and bank stabilization.
