Everything Evergreen!
The Chamber is ALL about our mountain community. We all live here, recreate here, and bring friends and family in from out of town to experience Evergreen. I know many of you do too!
To help us all, The Evergreen Chamber is developing a community app that you can download from your cell phone app store. It will be called “Everything Evergreen” and should be available in early July. Not only will this help those who come into our community learn about all that it has to offer, there will be businesses in virtually every category, so you no longer must post on Facebook asking for suggestions!
Do you need someone to help you get into your car because you locked your key inside? No worries, the app will have the business name, phone number and all the contact information you need. Have you recently been told by your insurance provider that you are going to be dropped because you live in the foothills? No worries. All the local insurance offices with all their information will be in the palm of your hands. Looking to go for a hike with some friends who are in town? All the trail maps will be accessible from your cell phone.
We are so excited about the possibilities this app will provide to residents and visitors alike including the details for upcoming events and the ability of your favorite restaurants and shops to send you coupons and special event notices. And because we do not want the excitement to end there, we are going to kick off the promotion of this new app with a raffle that will highlight “Everything Evergreen.” Look for prize packages that will combine so many of our amazing local businesses including a package for Girls Day Out, a Family Stay-Cation package, a “Christmas Made Easy” bundle (this will finish your Christmas shopping list before you even get started!), and a “Romance is in the Air” to warm anyone’s heart. Look for more details on this next month.
I know everyone’s calendars are filling up quickly now that our beautiful weather has arrived, so please mark your calendar for Taste of Evergreen to be held at the Evergreen Lake House on Tuesday, September 20. This will be a fun evening of enjoying tastes and sips from all our awesome restaurants, food trucks, pubs and more while enjoying music and visiting with neighbors and friends, all while surrounded by the beauty of the Lake House. Look for tickets to go on sale in August.
Since we cannot talk too much about wildfire mitigation, I want to highly recommend that as you do mitigation on your property to make yourself aware of Colorado’s Income 65: Wildfire Mitigation Measures Subtraction which allows individuals, estates and trusts to claim a subtraction on their Colorado income tax return for certain costs incurred in performing wildfire mitigation measures on their property in a wildland-urban interface area within Colorado. The subtraction is equal to either 50% or 100% (depending on the tax year) of the qualifying costs for performing wildfire mitigation measures. The total subtraction a taxpayer can claim per tax year is limited to $2,500. For more details on this program, please visit: https://tax.colorado.gov/sites/tax/files/Income65.pdf
At the Evergreen Chamber, we are deeply saddened by the passing of Colin Kerr, owner of the Wildflower Cafe in downtown Evergreen. Wildflower Cafe is a member of the Evergreen Chamber and Colin served on the Board of Directors for our Chamber. His passion for this community will be greatly missed.

RRCC Receives Million Dollar Grant
for Physician Assistant Students
|
|
|
|
Red Rocks Community College (RRCC) recently received a grant in the amount of $951,247, awarded by the Health Resources and Services Administration.
This five-year grant will provide 18-week longitudinal clinical rotations to Physician Assistant (PA) students throughout rural regions of Colorado with a goal to increase the numbers of PAs who practice primary care in rural communities post-graduation. Additionally, the RRCC PA Program will support the training and professional development of preceptors in rural areas. Both key activities will strengthen the primary care workforce by promoting primary care practice and enhancing training for both future and current primary care providers. Anticipated results include the expansion of the number of qualified PAs who practice primary care after graduation, which will address the statewide shortage of primary care providers and the urgent community need for primary care providers who are well-trained to meet the needs of rural Medically Underserved Communities (MUCs).
"This money will provide the college with the opportunities to grow our health services to the rural areas of Colorado and those citizens who have been underserved," says Dr. Michele Haney, President of RRCC.
The RRCC PA Program is the only Master’s degree-granting community college program in the United States, one of only four programs in Colorado preparing physician assistants, and the only program dedicated to preparing PAs for primary care practice. Annually, the program trains 32 PA students. The funding from HRSA will support eight (8) PA students annually (40 total) in completing 18-week longitudinal clinical rotations in primary care settings. The Rural Immersion Program will partner with four critical access hospitals/rural health clinics located in MUCs to provide student training. Further, the PA Program will partner with Colorado Rural Health Center, Colorado’s nonprofit State Office of Rural Health, to provide education and training to the partner rural clinics and preceptors.
As a result, the grant will increase the number of PAs who practice in rural primary care areas, enhance PA students’ knowledge and skills to provide culturally responsive and inclusive medicine and represent demographics reflective of the communities they serve, and strengthen the RRCC PA Program’s partnership with the Colorado Rural Health Center and rural primary care clinics across the state.
“Red Rocks Community College is committed to fulfilling its role in addressing community needs," says Angela King, the Executive Director of Institutional Advancement at RRCC. "This incredible funding opportunity allows us to continue our efforts with regional partners to address the statewide shortage of primary care providers and the urgent community need for primary care providers who are well-trained to meet the needs of rural Medically Underserved Communities.”
