Welcome to Evergreen
Your Mountain Destination
Well established as one of Colorado's hidden treasures and a popular day escape, the Evergreen community offers an array of parks, art galleries, theatre, restaurants, entertainment, and more. Evergreen Lake, our crown jewel is fed by tributaries from Mt. Evans and is known for its all-season recreational activities such as boating, fishing, birding, ice-skating, weddings and concerts, and is bordered by mountain parks with miles of trails for hiking, biking, snowshoeing, and horseback riding.
Evergreen is an easy commute off Interstate-70, only 35 minutes from downtown Denver, 50 minutes from the Denver Tech Center, and an hour from Denver International Airport. At an elevation of 7,200 feet, surrounded by blue spruce and pine forests, our climate offers relief from the hot summers, with temperatures ranging from the high 70's to the low 80's; and winters are surprisingly mild, in the mid 40's to 50 degrees.

2011 Youth of the Year: Kate Bellino
During her sophomore year Kate represented EHS at a summit on diversity. She was an amazing participant and showed strong leadership qualities. After returning to school she developed and presented a proposal to bring a full day of diversity awareness and education to EHS. As a result she was awarded the Cougar Citizenship award in the spring of 2011.
EHS Principal Matt Walsh told the Canyon Courier, “After participating in a student summit on diversity, Kate did what many others couldn’t have imagined. She took the lead to ensure change would happen. Working closely with students and staff, Kate developed a proposal to change the culture of EHS with regard to the numerous types of diversity evident at EHS. Kate’s program was adopted as an integral part of EHS and Kate was invited to serve on the accountability committee.”
Kate, now a junior, worked tirelessly with students and staff to make her proposal realty, a full day of diversity at EHS. The program included all grades and all students attending EHS. Kate spoke to the importance of understanding and accepting those who are different. She ended with “let’s not be one of those schools that after something really bad has happened they say, this will make us stronger. Let’s make ourselves stronger now.”
There are plans to make this an annual event at EHS. Kate continues to represent EHS at diversity conferences held in the Denver area.
