This week's program: Wellness Center update

The Estes Park Medical Center (EPMC) plans to build a destination Wellness Center on Lot 4 on The Stanley campus here in Estes Park. This project will require raising $8 million through a capital campaign to fund construction and startup costs. The Wellness Center is designed to be an economic driver for Estes Park tourism as well as an additional service line for the Medical Center, our local independent hospital.

Kevin Mullin, the Executive Director of the EPMC Foundation, will speak at the Rotary Club of Estes Park on Thursday, November 17, at their regular noon meeting. The EPMC Foundation is the fundraising arm of the EPMC and the lead agency for the capital campaign. Mullen will provide information about the project, and its benefits will be shared with Rotarians.
