Four Estes Park Health educational videos receive Telly Awards
Four Estes Park Health educational videos produced by Estes Park resident Wendy Rigby have received silver Telly Awards. The videos include:
- “Estes Park Health offers surgical repair for hernias” featuring Dr. Chrstine Bogardus
- “Through the Looking Glass: MRI provides incredible images of the body” featuring Dr. John Knudtson
- “Estes Park Health offers low dose CT scans for lung cancer” featuring Dr. John Knudtson
- “New mural at Estes Park Health brings Colorado splendor inside” featuring local Estes Park muralist Michael Young
Announced in May 2025, the Telly Awards honor excellence in video and television across all screens. These four videos were recognized in the non-broadcast General: Fitness, Health and Wellness category.
Rigby, who held the position of Marketing Communications Specialist at EPH until her retirement in February 2025, recently brought her trophies to the hospital. Juggling the four large and heavy awards proved to be a pleasant challenge.
“I’m so happy that my background as a television news reporter who specialized in medical and bioscience stories paid off for EPH in my role at the hospital,” said Rigby. “Video is an excellent medium for educating patients. It was a joy to produce them.”
These are not Rigby’s first Telly Awards for Estes Park Health. She also received a bronze Telly in 2024 for her video about colonoscopies. The video, which featured Dr. Jennifer McLellan, showcased the process of colonoscopies and the benefit of having this quality cancer screening available in Estes Park.
Since retiring from her marketing position at Estes Park Health, Rigby has enjoyed volunteering for her church, Estes Park United Methodist Church, and serving on the board of Crossroads Ministry.
“My favorite part about retirement is being able to hike on a random weekday,” Rigby emphasized. “I also enjoy book club, Bible study and taking classes at the Art Center of Estes Park. My husband is happy to have me around more.”
Estes Park Health misses Rigby’s enthusiasm and production skills but her work continues to be shared with patients at the hospital. You can watch Rigby’s videos on screens in the first and second floor lobbies of EPH, on the EPH YouTube channel and on eph.org.
