annual report 2014
letter from board president
As I complete my sixth and final year on the Board of Directors, this past year
as president, I am proud of what CCA has accomplished and excited about the
Colorado Chautauqua’s bright future.
My colleagues on the board and I are honored to help advance the mission
of the Colorado Chautauqua Association (CCA) through the implementation
of strategies to ensure a sustainable future for the Colorado Chautauqua—
physically, programmatically, environmentally and financially—consistent with
the CCA mission to preserve, perpetuate and improve the site and spirit of the
historic Chautauqua.
I am pleased to report that CCA ended 2014 in strong financial position,
completed many capital projects and made great strides towards future
improvement projects that will benefit all visitors. Enhanced safety, accessibility
and an enriched guest experience were primary goals. As a result of a
collaboration with the City of Boulder, new ADA accessible restrooms to
serve the Auditorium are coming to fruition in June 2015. Thanks to City of
Boulder voters’ approval of Ballot Issue 2A (“Community-Culture-Safety”) last
November, sidewalks and wayfinding lighting for improved pedestrian safety
are on the horizon. Other significant capital projects completed in 2014 included
restoration work to the Auditorium’s north staircase and, in collaboration with
the Dining Hall operator Three Leaf Concepts, refurbishment of Cottage 100 into
the Chautauqua General Store. Additionally, CCA’s year-round programming
continued to attract audiences of all demographics.
None of these accomplishments would be possible without the generous
support of the community and ongoing collaboration with our partners at the
City of Boulder.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve the Colorado Chautauqua and
the community it serves. Please join me in supporting the Colorado Chautauqua
Association in its stewardship to ensure Chautauqua’s vibrant and sustainable
future.

mission statement
statement of values
The mission of the Colorado Chautauqua Association is
to preserve, perpetuate and improve the site and spirit
of the historic Chautauqua by enhancing its community
and values through cultural, educational, social and
recreational experiences.
The Chautauqua experience is based on lifelong learning,
love of nature, voluntary simplicity and music, oration and
the arts. Historic significance, traditions, cultural relevance,
respite and enrichment are among the community benefits
provided by the Colorado Chautauqua.
Phil Shull
President, Board of Directors
Colorado Chautauqua Association
letter from the executive director
Dear Friends,
As steward of this beautiful National Historic Landmark, the Colorado
Chautauqua Association (CCA) has had another memorable and productive
year—providing the community with many opportunities for respite and to
“escape, engage and elevate.”
As I begin my twelfth year as Executive Director and reflect on the many
services and programs CCA has provided to the community over the past
decade, I am honored to be associated with something so special; to be
entrusted with stewardship of the site and the spirit, and to get to be part of
ensuring Chautauqua’s sustainable future!
Our board and staff are dedicated to continuously improving internal operations
and services that evolve with changing technology and customer expectations
while maintaining the physical campus to look and function little differently
than it did decades ago. The few changes are subtle and appropriate—they do
not detract from the historic character, which remains distinct. As we continue
to work to secure a sustainable future for Chautauqua for the next 30 years, our
intent is that visitors to the site do not distinguish old from new, as there is a
natural and organic-feeling melding of the two.
Chautauqua’s progress and sustainability could not be possible without the
generous support of our greater Chautauqua community, of members and
donors, lodging and dining guests, concert goers, frequent and infrequent visitors.
Thank YOU for enabling us create memorable experiences year after year.
Thank you to our collaborators at the Chautauqua Dining Hall and Colorado
Music Festival, our generous donors, sponsors and members. There are many
people to thank at the City of Boulder (CCA’s landlord—but more importantly,
our partner)—Mayor Matt Appelbaum and the City Council, City Manager
Jane Brautigam and her staff, the Landmarks Board and staff, the Parks and
Recreation Department, the Open Space and Mountain Parks Department,
Public Works/Transportation, Community Planning and Sustainability and the
City Attorney’s Office. I add my personal thanks to the CCA Board of Directors
for its dedication and support, and to our tireless and devoted staff who make it
all happen every day of every year.
I invite you to join us in celebrating our wonderful community jewel and
supporting its vibrant future.
Sincerely,

accomplishments
Preservation & Sustainability
Preservation and maintenance of
Auditorium
Chautauqua’s 67 historic buildings
and 20+ acres of grounds for active
year-round use is a fundamental
part of the Colorado Chautauqua
Association’s (CCA) daily
stewardship activities. CCA invests
approximately one million dollars
annually in capital improvements
and routine maintenance within its
leasehold portion of the Colorado
Chautauqua National Historic
Landmark.
Chautauqua General Store
Located just west of the Dining Hall,
Cottage 100 has served Chautauqua
guests in many different capacities
since its construction in 1899. The
new Chautauqua General Store in
Cottage 100 opened its doors in
May 2014. Hikers, local families
and Chautauqua guests enjoyed
homemade ice cream, including
flavors such as mint chocolate chip
made with real mint, vegan peanut
butter chocolate chip, and refreshing
orange sherbet, as well as an offering
of coffee drinks, teas, chai, grab-andgo snacks and freshly baked pastries.
Overnight guests and tourists also
picked up gifts, memorabilia and
forgotten travel sundries. The General
Store is open seasonally May 1
through September.
For over a century, the Chautauqua
Auditorium has held a special place
in the hearts of performers and
audiences. Each year, routine upkeep
and scheduled capital improvement
projects ensure that the beloved
building remains in top condition and
ready to welcome all who visit.
Prior to the start of the 2014 summer
season, the Auditorium underwent a
spring spruce up. Projects included
carpentry repair and fresh paint on
the exterior, restoration of the north
concrete staircase, restoration of
one of the historic stone pillars—an
element of the original “promenade,”
and rehabilitation of wood
components in 436 audience seats.
Cottages & Lodges
Other major capital improvements
for 2014 included the complete
rehabilitation of two cottages.
©Werner R. Slocum
Rehabilitation work on cottages 13
and 219 included many projects such
as insulation of crawl space and
attic, reconstruction of a deteriorated
foundation, reconstruction of a
flagstone patio, remodel of kitchens
and bathrooms, upgrade of electrical
service and outdated wiring and
plumbing, installation of a tankless
water heater and complete painting of
all interior and exterior surfaces.

Environmental Sustainability
The Chautauqua values of lifelong
learning, love of nature and
voluntary simplicity go hand-in-hand
with environmental sustainability.
©Werner R. Slocum
©Stephen Collector
In 2008, the Colorado Chautauqua
Association committed to making
the Colorado Chautauqua the
country’s “greenest” National
Historic Landmark. Since then, CCA
has made sweeping changes to
the way it operates and continues
to explore strategies to conserve
water and energy, divert waste from
landfills and utilize earth-friendly
products, while preserving the
guest experience and the Colorado
Chautauqua’s historic character.
THE GUEST EXPERIENCE
Overnight guests may notice
differences from the typical
vacation destination. For example,
Chautauqua cottages are equipped
with composting and recycling
containers, water-saving shower
heads, faucets and toilets, ecofriendly soaps and hair products
and alternative cooling systems.
Bath towels and other linens are
exchanged upon request, rather than
changed daily. The gift shops found
in the Lodging office and the General
Store offer earth-friendly products
featuring organically grown fibers,
non-toxic BPA-free materials and
environmentally sound production
processes.
ENERGY
Energy conservation is one of CCA’s
highest priorities. As a general rule,
whenever an appliance, furnace or
water heater needs to be replaced,
the most energy-efficient option
that meets the need is selected. This
includes on-demand water heaters
as well as other Energy Star rated
products. Light bulbs with low-
energy compact florescent lights (CFL)
have been systematically installed
wherever safe and effective and CCA
is experimenting with high efficiency
LED lights.
All cottages are strategically air sealed
and insulated to reduce energy use
and increase year-round comfort.
A number of strategies have been
employed for summer comfort in
cottages and community buildings,
including solar reflective window
screens, whole-house fans, ceiling
fans, and high-efficiency alternative
cooling systems like the Coolerado in
the Academic Hall and Community
House. Significant energy efficiency
upgrades also have been made to the
historic Dining Hall.
The Colorado Chautauqua is
recognized as a national leader in
the application of energy efficiency
and green construction techniques in
historic building renovation. As part of
its Learning Laboratory, CCA compiles
case studies and valuable data,
and shares its learnings with home
owners, the historic preservation
community and the green building
industry.
WATER
Water is precious in Boulder’s highdesert climate and CCA is conscious of
every drop used. In addition to water
saving fixtures in buildings, weather
monitors have been incorporated
into irrigation systems throughout the
grounds. These monitors evaluate
factors such as temperature, relative
humidity, wind and precipitation, so
water is used only as much, and as
often, as necessary. This practice has
resulted in a reduction of outdoor
water use by as much as 40 percent
annually since initial implementation
in 2010.
WASTE
With a goal to reduce its waste stream
to a mere trickle, CCA makes every
effort to reduce, reuse and recycle. All
yard and tree trimmings are collected
and converted to mulch to be used
in our gardens and flower beds.
When renovating historic buildings,
reclaimed building materials are
used to the extent possible, diverting
65 percent of construction waste
from landfills through recycling and
re-use. Approximately 75 percent
of overnight guests participate in a
voluntary compost program and the
Dining Hall operator converts much
of its food waste into feed for its farm
animals.
HOP 2 CHAUTAUQUA
CCA encourages all visitors to reduce
their environmental footprint and
celebrates their efforts. In 2014, nearly
4,000 concert patrons chose to ride
the free HOP 2 Chautauqua to the
Chautauqua and Colorado Music
Festival. Available on Auditorium
concert nights, the free transit service
runs every 15-20 minutes from
approximately two hours prior to
show time to 45 minutes after the end
of each show. HOP 2 Chautauqua
is operated by VIA Mobility Services
and funded by GO Boulder/City of
Boulder, CCA and Colorado Music
Festival. For more information, visit
www.chautauqua.com/HOP.

Safety
Accessibility
Thanks go to City of Boulder voters who
overwhelmingly passed Ballot Issue 2A
(“Community-Culture-Safety”), a short-term
sales tax increase for specific capital projects
throughout the City. These funds will enable the
City to add a new sidewalk on the south side of
Baseline Road and to light the sidewalks between
the Auditorium and Baseline and between the
Dining Hall and the lower tennis court parking
lot. Both projects have been on CCA’s wish list
for years and will greatly improve access and
safety for users of the park, the historic campus
and adjacent open space trails.
ADA ACCESSIBLE RESTROOMS
Through collaboration with the City of
Boulder, construction is underway for ADA
accessible restrooms to serve the Auditorium.
This restroom project, managed and
funded by the City of Boulder, will feature
a six stall restroom with ADA accessible
accommodations for both men and women.
The restrooms will be completed in lateJune, weather permitting, and will be open in
conjunction with Auditorium use.
Archives
COLORADO CHAUTAUQUA OPENS DIGITAL
ARCHIVE TO THE PUBLIC
The archive collection at the Colorado
Chautauqua consists of approximately 5,000
inventoried items of historic records dating back
to the inception of the chautauqua in 1898. The
archive’s content ranges from photographs and
marketing materials to extensive information on
buildings, grounds and organization operations.
Housed at the National Historic Landmark since
its inception, the archive had been previously
inaccessible to the public. As part of a pilot
project to gauge community interest, a portion of
the collection has been digitized with a sampling
of historical photographs and printed materials
now available for viewing on CCA’s website.
The online exhibit includes items such as
photographs showing the Auditorium’s original
bleachers and dirt floor, program brochures from
the early 1900’s and the first program from 1898
as well as more modern posters that capture
speakers such as the Reverend Jesse Jackson.
Visitors to the website who have additional
questions are invited to complete an online Ask
the Archivist form.
The cataloguing and partial digitization of the
archive collection has been underway for the
past two years, and can be viewed at chautauqua.

accomplishments
Arts & Culture
cultural residency
Since July 4, 1898, people have
traveled long distances to have a
chautauqua experience in Boulder.
Initially a tent city, seasonal
cottages and lodges were built and
rebuilt at Chautauqua over time.
The result was a unique neighborhood
that, for its first century, was primarily
for summer use only.
Today, 57 cottages and the Missions
House and Columbine Lodges are
available for nightly rental year-round.
All of the cottages and lodges at
Chautauqua have been lovingly
upgraded to be as energy efficient and
©Benko Photographics
comfortable as possible. Five cottages
are EPA Energy Star-rated, indicating
achievement of the highest standards
in energy efficiency.
Not only is staying in a cottage or
lodge a fundamental element of the
Chautauqua experience, but lodging
revenue is the economic engine for
CCA. The revenues fund preservation
and maintenance activities and
subsidize public programming. In
2014, revenue from cultural residency
contributed 52 percent of CCA’s total
revenue.
Each year, Chautauqua hosts
overnight guests from around the
globe, nationally, regionally, and
often locally to participate in the
chautauqua experience. Please join us!

programming
From classical to popular music,
silent films to modern dance,
authors to actors, and science
to theater, 2014 was packed with
many memorable Chautauqua
experiences.
Auditorium programs
The 117th Summer Series delivered
yet another season of diverse and
quality entertainment that the
community has come to expect,
including artists such as: Grammy
Lifetime Achievement Award winners
and Rock and Roll Hall of Famers
B.B. King and Mavis Staples, world
musicians Ziggy Marley and Angelique
Kidjo, and perennial crowd favorites
Andrew Bird, John Hiatt, Marc Cohn,
Steve Earle, Hot Rize and Loudon
Wainwright III. Spoken word also
filled the Auditorium as the wit
and wisdom of comedians Paula
Poundstone and Steven Wright kept
audiences laughing while climatologist
Katharine Hayhoe delivered some
sobering news about Earth’s future.
Silent films with live musical
accompaniment lit up the silver
screen for the 29th consecutive year.
Audiences viewed the history of
rock climbing in Yosemite during
the sold-out two day premiere of
REEL ROCK 9’s “Valley Uprising”
and were awestruck and inspired
by the incredible athleticism of
dancers from Cleo Parker Robinson
©Jonathan B. Auerbach
Dance Ensemble and Colorado
Hip Hop Society’s presentation of
“Murmuration.”
An integral part of Chautauqua’s
summer programming for more
than three decades, the Colorado
Music Festival continued to provide
six weeks of inspiring, world-class
classical music. For the 2015 season,
patrons will get to know new Music
Director Jean-Marie Zeitouni’s
personal affinity for vocal music.
Outside the Auditorium, theater was
abundant at Chautauqua. Hikers hit
the trails to enjoy Theatre Hikes’
“Alice in Wonderland” and “Three
Tales of Poe” while aficionados
participated in staged play readings in
the Community House.
Community House programs
Year-round programming in the
Chautauqua Community House
explored the origins of space, the
power of the pen and film, and
music diversity in 2014.
During the popular and sold out
Space Series, audiences were taken
on a monthly voyage of discovery
through the solar system and outer
limits of space and time.
Paying homage to the original
Chautauqua Literary & Scientific
Circle, the monthly Author Series
presented thought provoking writers
sharing their works of fiction and
nonfiction. Authors included Peter
Heller unveiling his newest work
of science fiction; David Haskell
explaining unseen life in the forest;
Nicolas Carr discussing technology’s
effects on human life; Kristen
Iversen revealing the aftereffects
of growing up and working in
the shadow of Rocky Flats; Paolo
Bacigalupi told stories for young
readers; James Glanville captured
life on the western landscape; and
Tarashea Nesbit and Rachel Weaver
debuted their first novels.
Filmmakers, screenwriters and
producers convened at the Community
House throughout the year to gather
live audience feedback during post
screening discussions of their work.
These documentaries took the
audience on journeys from Colorado
ranchlands and the termination of the
Colorado River to the highest peaks of
Nepal and the unexplored corners of
the human mind.
Just as attending a concert in the
Chautauqua Auditorium is on the
summer “must-do” list, Community
House concerts have become a favorite
amongst fans looking to experience
music in an intimate atmosphere. 2014
musicians included Jonathan Richman,
Patty Larkin and Gretchen Peters.

Two grants received by CCA in 2014 had a
significant effect on net income. A grant from
the Glenn H. Korff Foundation in the amount
of $675,000 was received for upgrades to the
Auditorium sound system, acoustics and seating
and will be spent over the next two to three
years. CCA also received additional SCFD funding
in excess of budget in the amount of $133,597.
Without these two grants, net income would have
been $400,000, or $60,659 above 2013 net income
of $339,568.

Glenn H. Korff Foundation
In 2014, CCA was the recipient of a
very generous grant from the Glenn
H. Korff Foundation. This gift will
enable CCA to make improvements
to the Auditorium over the next
three years that will greatly enhance
guests’ live music experience. These improvements—
unimaginable without this kind and generous grant—will
include the installation of a permanent audio system,
replacement of acoustic panels above the stage and
upgrading all the seats throughout the venue.
A fourth generation Nebraskan, Mr. Korff graduated from
the University of Nebraska in 1965 with a chemistry degree
and was a member and former president of Sigma Phi
Epsilon fraternity. His passion for performing arts began on
the Nebraska campus as a member of Kosmet Klub, a male
musical and comedy ensemble for which he served as a set
designer. He received an MBA in finance in 1968 from the
University of Pennsylvania and enjoyed a long career in
the area of finance and investments, retiring from Goldman
Sachs and moving to Boulder, Colorado.
Mr. Korff spent much of his Boulder life at his beloved
Chautauqua, hiking the trails and enjoying the music in
the Auditorium. Mr. Korff was a very private individual,
with few requests for recognition, but wanted to make a
difference and leave a legacy through his giving, which
would create community support and educate others in the
importance of philanthropy. Mr. Korff’s legacy of support
of the arts, music education and the places he dearly loved
will benefit Chautauqua and its visitors for years to come.

Now more than ever, the
Matching Gifts
Commemorative Bricks
Many corporations offer matching
gift programs whereby the company
agrees to match any gift donated
by an employee or retiree. A
Matching Gift Program is an ideal
way for a company to demonstrate
the importance of supporting the
community. Corporate matching
can double and often triple the
overall contribution that Colorado
Chautauqua Association receives on
behalf of an individual.
Become a part of Colorado
Chautauqua’s history by purchasing
a commemorative brick, engraved
with a personal message and
installed along a path in the beautiful
Centennial Garden. This is a perfect
way to commemorate a birthday or
milestone or to honor a special friend
or family member.
Chautauqua values of voluntary
simplicity, lifelong learning, love of
nature and music, oration and the
arts are relevant and needed in the
hectic pace of today’s digital age.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization,
the Colorado Chautauqua Association
relies on the generosity of the
community to help preserve the site
and spirit of the historic Chautauqua
and enrich the lives of all who visit.
Individual or Business
Contributions
Gifts of any size make a difference.
Donor generosity allows CCA to
constantly improve the visitor
experience of the Colorado
Chautauqua’s historic accommodations
and event venues, the natural beauty
of the 20+ acres of grounds, and the
quality and quantity of educational
and entertainment programming.
Planned Giving
Planned giving provides ways to
support the Colorado Chautauqua
without affecting a donor’s current
lifestyle or family’s security. Through
planned giving, gifts can be made
that cost nothing during the donor’s
lifetime and leave cash flow and
current financial planning unchanged.
Planned giving gifts could include gifts
from wills or trusts, retirement plan
designations, appreciated securities,
life insurance and many more.
