 Eagle Rock School: this week's program
​
​
 
 
Jeff Liddle, Head of School, Eagle Rock School and Professional Development Center,  will speak at the Rotary Club of Estes Park on Thursday, January 14, at their regular noon meeting. His presentation will share the founding history and philanthropic story behind Eagle Rock, its current programming, and future plans.
 
Welcoming its first group of students in 1993, Eagle Rock has grown from a visionary idea to a nationally known, award-winning high school and professional development center. Eagle Rock is a residential high school for students who have not found success in traditional academic settings, and a professional development center that facilitates the efforts of educational organizations and others interested in re-engaging youth in their own education.
 
Liddle has been working with adolescents for over three decades, spending much of his career in the outdoor/experiential education field. He joined Eagle Rock in 2000, where he directed the wilderness program for five years. Next, he spend seven years working as the Director of Curriculum. He became Head of School in 2012. 
 
Jeff earned his undergraduate degree at Slippery Rock University, Pennsylvania, and his Master’s Degree at the State University of New York, Cortland, New York. 
 
Jeff joined our club three years ago this month. 
Winterfest: a showcase of Rotary service
Winterfest help needed!
 
Chuck Bonza has issued an all-call for volunteers to help with Winterfest on Saturday and Sunday, Jan. 16 and 17. Be a part of the event on Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday weekend. Shifts are available on both days.
Our Rotary Club was awarded the volunteer staffing activity for the Winterfest Chili tasting on January 16 and 17 at the Event Center. For our work the Town will give the Club $3,000. The event runs from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm on both Saturday and Sunday.
 
The Winterfest includes children's activities, beer tasting, entertainment and the chili cookoff/tasting. The club's role is to provide people to help help the chili vendors with cups, napkins, spoons and the rest while they serve the visitors. We may also be able to help some with setup.
 
We need to provide 6 people in 4 hour shifts. Friends, neighbors and relatives are all welcome to join our crews.
 
Saturday January 16:  2 crews are needed: 10-2 and another from 2-6
Sunday January 17:  - same thing.
 
Chuck said volunteers at last year's Winterfest found they had plenty of time to enjoy the event and sample some libations after their shifts.
