Rally for the Rink
Given the shortened skating season at Evergreen Lake and the tremendous benefits of having an ice arena in the Conifer and Evergreen area, it's time for our communities to lean in and rally for the rink.
Help demonstrate community interest in the development of an ice arena by sharing your input and registering your support.
What is Rally for the Rink?
Rally for the Rink is a community initiative created by volunteers in Conifer and Evergreen to solicit input, engage support, and conduct research to develop an ice rink for our mountain communities. Our community group is working to answer the following questions:
-
How much community interest is there for an ice rink?
-
What type of rink and programming should be provided to the community?
-
What revenue and expenses should we anticipate for the development and maintenance of an ice rink?
For more information, feel free to contact Brad Strong at rinkrally@gmail.com.
Why Build a Rink for Mountain Communities?
Stronger Community
An ice arena provides a local hub for youth sports, adult recreation, and community events, fostering belonging, teamwork, and another positive communal space in our mountain communities.
Improved Access
Community members gain convenient access to skating, ice sports, and winter activities that promote physical and mental health for all ages.
Community Investment
The arena would create local jobs, attract tournaments and visitors, and keep recreation dollars in the community, serving as a durable, multi-generational asset for our mountain areas.
