The Humphrey Memorial Park and Museum is
conveniently located in North Evergreen just a
few mile from I-70. Available for special private events during the
warm weather months, there are three beautiful
outdoor settings that reflect the beauty of the
historic ranch buildings and the spectacular
mountain views they include the Croquet Court
with the Big Top Tent,
the Terrace and English Garden and the Patio.
The Croquet Court Under the Big Top Tent & Summer House
|
The Summer House was built
by Lee Humphrey in the 1920s. |
Celebrate under our gorgeous, new 60 ft. by
40 ft. tent set up at the Croquet Court! The new
tent, purchased with grant funds, is available
to rent for private events such as weddings,
picnics, family reunions, barbecues, etc.. The
site is surrounded by gorgeous mountain views,
and has ample parking and a two-tiered stage.
The regulation-size court is surrounded by
rock walls on three sides and is nestled between
a mountain side and a grassy field. Located at
the top of the small hill at the front of the
Croquet Court is a wooden structure called "The
Summer House" that will lend an extra Western
flair to your event. A wooden stage is available
for the front of the Croquet Court for
performances, bands, mixers, wedding parties,
etc. There are folding chairs (about 100)
available for this area. Tent rental is extra.
The Croquet Court is available from 10 am to 9
pm. Capacity is 150 people.

Our natural amphitheater and
English gardens create the ideal venue for

grounds, visit the Summer House, Croquet Court,
Terrace and Patio.

Situated next to the historic house, the
terrace is covered with rock pavers and
surrounded by the historic gardens that date
back to the early 20th Century. This shady area
makes the perfect place for a summer luncheon,
tea or small special event. Here guests will
enjoy the beauty of nature, the smell of flowers
and the songs of the birds. The Terrace is
available from 10 am to 9 pm. Capacity is 35
people.

The Patio

The beautiful flagstone patio
is surrounded by a stone seating-wall and faces
the new portico at the entryway to the museum.
This lovely setting is perfect for a cocktail
party, luncheon or performance for a small
group. The curved rock seating-wall can seat 35
people and chairs and tables can be set up here,
too. The afternoons and evenings are shady on
The Patio, with bright sunlight in the mornings.
The tinkling of chimes can be heard from this
cozy spot and there is a nice view of the
mountains and trees. The Patio is available from
10 am to 9 pm. Capacity is 75 to 100 people
(some standing).
