Singing Hills Elementary and the EPR District have teamed up to offer an exciting summer day camp program open to all community youth. Youth ages 5-12 can register for one week or register for the entire summer. Each week has a unique theme and is filled with a variety of activities and experiences that afford endless opportunities for fun all summer long. The program will be held at Singing Hills Elementary School from 7:30am to 5:30pm daily. Cost is $225/week and includes weekly field trip fees.
Please register online, see the registration button below, or call the Park Office at 303.646.3599 and we will be happy to assist you. After online registration and payment, you must pick up an application packet at Singing Hills Elementary School or the Elizabeth Park and Recreations office. This paperwork is required by the state and must be completed and returned at least two weeks prior to your child's first day of camp.

The District is planning a fun day of activities as we present the community with your new artificial turf field and pickleball courts and open them up for play. We will have refreshments, activities, demonstrations, bouncy houses, and more on tap as we join together and celebrate this great success.
We will get things started at 10am by sharing information on the new amenities and the process to get them completed before the Board of Directors ceremonially cuts the ribbon and opens the new facilities for some demos, intro pickleball clinic followed by open play, and a community kickball game.
The District is once again providing residents the opportunity to purchase Ponderosa Pine trees that can be relocated from Casey Jones Park to your property. The trees are generally 3-25 feet tall and are in areas of the park that will see future development. Our hope is to relocate the trees within the Elizabeth Community now rather than cut them down in the future once planned park projects are initiated. District residents can purchase trees under 8 foot for $150 and trees over 8 foot for $250, which is a remarkable savings over tree nursery prices. There is a 10 – tree limit at this time. Residents must also arrange for and pay any associated costs for moving the trees. The District can provide contact information for tree contractors if needed.
This program is intended to keep the trees within the Elizabeth Community and to assist in expanding our tree canopy. Trees will require irrigation for up to the first three years after planting in your yard, and potentially longer based on precipitation levels and draught conditions. Call the park office at 303.646.3599 for more info or to get your trees now.
Construction has just about wrapped up on the new field and pickleball courts in Casey Jones Park. The District will be hosting a ribbon cutting ceremony and grand opening of these exciting new amenities on Saturday, August 10th at 10am. The event will include opportunities to observe competitive pickleball demos and participate in an intro skills clinic on the new courts. The event will also include an opportunity to see the High School Softball Team showcase their skills on the new artificial turf field and allow you to experience the field yourself playing a game of kickball. Project stakeholders such as the Board of Directors and leaders of local sport groups will also share their views on the significance of these community improvements and how they make Elizabeth and even greater place to live. Please plan to join us for this momentous day and celebrate the opening of these new park features that will serve residents and visitors for years to come.
The splash pad in Evans Park is open daily! Remember no bikes or scooters or dogs are allowed on the splash pad. This is for everyone's safety. Have fun and be safe!
