Cyclists roam county roads, paths Elephant Rock boosts economy, nonprofits By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Seven thousand cycling enthusiasts descended upon Douglas County this past weekend for the 26th Annual Elephant Rock Cycling Festival. The festival, which features a Sunday afternoon children’s race, as well as a 24-hour race that spanned May 31-June 1 on an 8.2-mile course at Greenland Open Space, also boasts rides of eight, 27, 32, 62 and 100 miles starting and finishing at the Douglas County Fairgrounds throughout the day June 2. Many people use the longer rides as training for bigger races such as Ride the Rockies and various Iron Man competitions, said Pat Smith, Elephant Rock spokeswoman, adding that the shorter rides are great ways to boost the confidence of beginning and younger riders to get them on the courses and help them build to longer rides. A traditional ride for many each year, Smith said the gorgeous scenery, rolling hills and picturesque view of Pikes Peak keeps cyclists coming back year after year. “We were a little bit down this year in numbers,” she said. “It was a tough season to train because of all the weather variability, but we have got a pretty loyal following.” That loyal following helped bring a $650,000 economic boon into Doug-

Beginning with the 2013-14 school year, armed officers will circulate through all Douglas County School District elementary and middle schools and early childhood centers. Armed officers are already present in the district’s high schools. Flanked by Douglas County law enforcement officers, with about 20 Soaring Hawk Elementary fifth-graders seated in front of her, Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen announced the new security program during a May 30 press conference at the Castle Rock school. The partnership among DCSD, Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, and the Parker, Castle Rock and Lone Tree police departments was created in response to December’s mass shooting in a Newtown, Conn., elementary school. “Our whole school district was brokenhearted over that event,” Fagen said. “We were committed to taking that brokenheartedness and turning it into something better.” Modeled after the airline marshal program, Douglas County deputies and police officers in plain clothes will circulate among schools in close geographic proximity to ensure daily visits to all DCSD schools. It “will create safety and security like we’ve never had before,” Fagen said. “We’re not aware of any other program like this in the country.” Security continues on Page 14

Team Transplant had 165 riders June 2, the most ever for a nonprofit organization at the Elephant Rock Cycling Festival. The riders included 36 transplant recipients or donors.

One of those organizations, the 74-person Team Zimbabwe, rode to raise funds for orphanages in Zimbabwe. Riding with them was Erin Hap, 35, who came down for the weekend with her family to do the 8-mile course with her 1-year-old daughter Beatrix in tow. It was Hap’s second time doing the race and first with her daughter. Showing up with the largest team in the 26-year history of Elephant Rock was Team Transplant, who hit the five different courses with 165 riders, 36 of whom were either transplant recipients or living donors. Founded by Denver attorney and author

Steve Farber nine years ago after receiving a kidney transplant from his son, the organization helps people learn where to go when they are in need of a transplant and also works to help create matches. Olivia Current, 18, came down from Longmont to cheer on the team and take in the race with her brother, Micah. She didn’t ride, but said it was the first time she had ventured out to an event like this since being diagnosed with leukemia two years ago. Olivia received a bone marrow transplant on Nov. 11, 2011. Currently on dialysis, she is now on the wait list for a kidney transplant. “I didn’t realize that there were this many people that supported me,” she said. “It’s nice. They don’t even know me.”

Teen Challenge helps build value in youth Business course gives young people a shot at success By Rhonda Moore

rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com

Red Rocks

When Castle Pines entrepreneur Judah Musick considered the best way to teach his children the value of a purposeful life, he opted to go global with the lesson. Musick and four of his business partners run a web and mobile development company, which is one of several start-ups the four have had a hand in. Each of their companies has one thing in common — they were built around their owners’ passions. A casual conversation about teaching children the value of pursuing what they love eventually became the Teen Startup Challenge, a web-based course designed to take participants from ground zero to business ownership. “Basically we want them to take what they love to do and turn it into a value of some kind,” Musick said. “It was a heartfelt need that we saw. What we’re teaching them to do is unlock unlimited potential through serving their community.” The course prepares participants by week two or three to start their own business with a foundation based on the Making Value for People business model, a lesson that can be applied to any area of life, Musick said. Practitioners of the MVP business model learn to add more value to the people around them to remain focused in the direction of success, Musick said. In the end, the business is a side benefit to the real lesson: to create significant value to the community by doing something they love to do, Musick said.

Rylie Manross, 14, of Highlands Ranch, launched dancetothepointe.com as a way to support girls interested in dance. Her business will be among the competitors in the inaugural Teen Challenge, inspiring teens to pursue their passion. Photo by Rhonda Moore It is a lesson that one Highlands Ranch teen is already beginning to understand. Rylie Manross, 14, was inspired to launch her website, dancetothepointe.com, after a private lesson with a writer who prompted her to start her own business. Manross built the website, designed the layout, produced instructional videos and within two months was ready to take orders for her dancetothepointe line of clothing. She offers tips on how to audition, diet, stretching and fitness. “I really believe starting your own business is great for kids,” Manross said. “It’s cool for kids to start their own business, not only to make a job for themselves, but also potentially for others.” The Teen Startup Challenge is supported by sponsors and free to participants. The 10-week course is challenge-based and results-oriented, Musick said. Participants are competing for prizes that include $5,000 in electronic equipment, sponsor gift certificates, free events, meals and products. “The whole presumption is they’re learning by doing,” Musick said. “It’s not about planning, it’s about results and execution.” For more about the Teen Startup Challenge or to register by the June 15 deadline, visit www.teenstartupchallenge.com.

Old maps restored, 35 years after fire Historic documents available once more By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com In an unsuccessful attempt to spring her boyfriend from jail, a teenage girl set fire to the Douglas County Courthouse on March 11, 1978. The fire forced the county to spread its services around Castle Rock for the next couple years, including placing the court and commissioners chambers in the bowling alley, said former mayor and current Douglas County Public Trustee George Kennedy. In addition, it damaged many of the county’s historic documents and records. And while some of those records, including most from the public trustee’s office, and many from the treasurer’s office are gone forever, a lot of the old records, maps and documents from the clerk and recorder’s office were recently restored. In recognition the recent restoration of 51 maps dating from the 1860s through the 1970s, an old pauper’s book, a ditch book and a brand book that kept record of cattle brands, the clerk and recorder’s office placed some of the documents on display at the commissioner chambers for a reception on May 28. “It’s been a three-pronged journey of restoration, preservation and digitization,” said Nancy Sotomayor, recording manager at the clerk and recorder’s office. “It’s taken about a year to complete the project. The maps either had smoke damage or water damage and some of them had both. They were in very poor condition.” The project, which cost $40,000, was approved by the county com-

Judy Hammer, Douglas County Historic Preservation Board administrator, left, examines a pauper book from 1903 and 1904 with Matt Jakubowski and Jeannette Bare of the county’s planning department. A pauper book recorded funds given to stranded travelers by the county clerk. The book was among numerous documents and maps initially damaged in the courthouse fire of 1978. Photo by Ryan Boldrey missioners in March 2012. It included the digitization of everything in the county vault so if another fire or disaster were to happen, records would be protected. “It’s so important to preserve these records,” said Clerk and Recorder Jack Arrowsmith. “Probably once a week somebody will give us a call, looking for a record. Oftentimes, because it is a land record, it will have to do with a dispute; somebody is claiming that this is their property or not their property, so it is great to have these maps to go back and settle some of this.” Two of the restored maps, including one from 1891 that shows the original platting of Perry Park, have been framed and are expected to be hung in the Wilcox Building.

For Bill Noe, the county’s planning director and land use administrator in 1978, the reception brought back a lot of memories of working overnight the night of the fire and through the ensuing days and nights to relocate the maps to a climate-controlled location in the state historical society building in Denver. “We took all the plats and laid them out page by page, and dried them as best we could,” he said. “It’s pretty amazing we salvaged what we did.” With the exception of the maps bound for the Wilcox Building, the other restored documents are not on public display, but since they are public record, Sotomayor said anyone can come into the clerk and recorder’s office and ask to see them.

ducky derby is current event Plum Creek will carry chances for money, car By Rhonda Moore

rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com The ducks are ready to float for a chance to win big with local Rotary Clubs’ Ducky Derby. The 2013 Ducky Derby is an all-day event, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. June 8 in downtown Castle Rock. Rotarians are aiming to push the record this year, as long as the weather delivers a ducky day. “Weather always indicates how many folks show up,” said Kelly Marsh, Ducky Derby chairwoman. “With good weather we should see 4,000 people. That’s about the largest crowd we get when the weather is nice.” The large crowds make for high ticket sales, Marsh said, with each ticket carrying a chance for a chance at the million-dollar duck. If the first duck to cross the finish line is the one earmarked as the million-dollar duck, the ticketholder will walk away with $1 million, Marsh said. The million-dollar duck has re-

Each duck in the race carries a number corresponding to a number on a purchased ticket. The first to cross the finish line wins $2,000 for the ticket-holder; second place wins $750; and third place wins $250. If the second-place ducky matches one of the new-car giveaway numbers, that ticket-holder wins a new car. The million-dollar ticket number and the new-car ticket numbers are selected in a random drawing from all the purchased ticket numbers before the race. Ticket-holders have a chance to win from among several hundred prizes, including free dinners, rounds of golf and other goods and services.

The Ducky Derby is the largest fundraiser of the year for the Rotary Clubs of Castle Rock and Castle Pines. The 2012 Ducky Derby raised more than $40,000, Marsh said. The highest number of tickets sold was 9,500 and Rotarians are hoping for another record. Days before the end of May, more than 7,000 tickets were sold, with expectations to sell another 2,000 at the event. Tickets are $5 each, or 5 tickets for $20, and are available at the Castle Rock Bank, the Castle Rock Senior Center, and from any Rotarian. Tickets will also be on sale at Festival Park on Ducky Derby day. Ducky Derby is on Second Street, between Wilcox and Perry, at Festival Park. Second Street will be closed for the street fair, which will include kids’ activities, live music, vendors and food. Alcohol will be for sale to visitors older than 21. The street fair begins at 11 a.m., tickets will remain on sale until about 2:30 p.m., and the ducks will float down Plum Creek at 3 p.m., Marsh said. More information is available at rotaryclubofcastlerock.org.

Gov. John Hickenlooper on May 28 signed several pieces of marijuana-related legislation into law, including those having to do with the regulation and proposed taxation of retail pot sales, which will soon become legal under Amendment 64. The governor said at a Capitol bill-signing event that Colorado is “chartering new territory” when it comes to putting in place a regulatory model on a newly created industry that voters approved in November. “The voters passed Amendment 64 by a clear majority,” said Hickenlooper, who opposed last fall’s ballot measure, which legalized recreational marijuana

use and retail pot sales in the state. “That’s why we’re going to implement it as effectively as we possibly can.” Among the bills signed by the governor was House Bill 1317, which puts in place the regulatory framework retail pot shops must obey, when they are allowed to begin operations on Jan. 1. In-state residents who are 21 and older will be able to purchase up to an ounce of marijuana at retail stores, per transaction, while outof-state visitors are limited to a quarter of an ounce. Colorado residents can also grow their own pot and possess up to six marijuana plants. Existing medical marijuana dispensaries will have a nine-month head start on other businesses looking to enter into the retail pot arena. Pot shops — which will not be able to sell food or drinks that do not contain marijuana — must sell the drug in child-resistant packages that denote potency. The state Department of Revenue will regulate the retail pot industry.

“When you are in uncharted territory, you need a North Star,” said Rep. Dan Pabon, D-Denver, a House Bill 1317 sponsor. “And the North Star we used was public safety and making sure we kept marijuana out of the hands of kids, cartels and criminals.” The regulatory bill is also aimed at trying to appease the federal government, which has yet to respond to the pot legislation in Colorado. Marijuana use and sales are illegal under federal law. Hickenlooper said he expects the feds will be “more specific” in how they respond to states like Colorado and Washington, where voters also recently approved recreational pot use, “relatively soon.” Hickenlooper also signed House Bill 1318, which calls for the drug to be taxed at a 15 percent excise tax rate, and a 10 percent retail tax rate. That’s in addition to other state and local taxes. Funds generated from the excise tax will go toward school construction. Voters must approve the new taxes in November.

Hickenlooper and other bill sponsors called on voters to support the tax measures, or run the risk of marijuana regulatory money being taken out of the state’s general fund. “This is a plea to the people of Colorado to pass these taxes in the fall,” Pabon said. Also becoming law on May 29 was House Bill 1325, which sets a standard by which it is illegal to get behind the wheel while under the influence of marijuana. The bill limits drivers to five nanograms per millileter of blood for active THC, marijuana’s psychoactive ingredient. House Minority Leader Mark Waller, R-Colorado Springs, joked that his multiple attempts at trying to pass a driving-stoned standard in the last few years have set a “modern Major League record.” However, he’s pleased that his efforts have finally become a realization. “At the end of the day, this is probably the most important public safety legislation that has been signed into law this year,” Waller said.

Chamber Trade Mission Targets Oil & Gas Executives in Houston

Calendar of Events For a complete calendar of South Metro Denver Chamber events and for more information, visit our web site at www.bestchamber.com or call 303-795-0142.

by Manny Gonzales, South Metro Denver Chamber

As part of the South Metro Denver Chamber’s ongoing mission to ensure Colorado’s economic vitality, a group of business leaders traveled to Houston recently to meet with high ranking executives from some of the largest oil and gas companies in the world. The trade mission focused on thanking those oil and gas companies for doing business in Colorado while adhering to strict environmental and health standards as well as laying the groundwork for future investment in Colorado. “Due to the efforts of our state and local elected officials and the input of our citizens and business community, we have created a clear and consistent framework for (oil and gas companies) to operate under,” Chamber CEO & President John Brackney said. Business ambassadors included Rick Whipple, chair of the chamber’s Economic Development Group and CEO of WhippleWood CPAs; Gayle Dendinger: CEO of CAP Logistics; Detlev Simonis: Director, Oil and Energy, CAP Logistics; Josh Penry: Senior Vice President of EIS Solutions; Andrew Casper: Regulatory Counsel at Colorado Oil and Gas Association; Peter Moore, a Senior Partner at Polsinelli PC; A.J. Misiti, Water Market Lead – Upstream Oil & Gas, CH2M Hill; Jim McGrath, Executive Vice President at Studley; Devin Mulhern, Director of Business Recruitment for the Denver South EDP; Frederic de Loizaga, Senior Associate of Office Properties at CBRE; Anthony Albanese, Senior Associate of Office Properties/Energy Facilities at CBRE; Forrest Bassett, a broker associate with Grillo Commercial Real Estate and Jeff Holwell, Director of the chamber’s Economic Development Group. “The Denver group brought a very powerful presence to Houston,” Bassett said. “I am very excited to keep this effort moving ahead and bring a positive impact

to Denver.” Misiti said: “It was an outstanding experience… Many good commercial relationships were established. In addition to the commercial success, this was the most fun I have had on a business trip in many years. What a great team.” The group met with John Christiansen, Director of Public Affairs and External Relations with Anadarko Petroleum, Damian Friend, Chief Geologist, and Jim Tramuto, VP of Government and Regulatory Strategies with Southwestern Energy and executives with ConocoPhillips. The group was also treated with a sit-down meeting with Chuck Davidson, Chairman and CEO, of Noble Energy, one of the largest oil and gas companies operating in Colorado. “Colorado has a significant potential to grow primary jobs, and thus wealth, in our communities through the expansion of the oil and gas industry,” Holwell said. “It is therefore essential that we align our economic development and public policy priorities relative to this potential and advocate for the industry as a united business community. “Our trade mission to Houston was eye opening event and helped us create the relationships to move this agenda forward,” Holwell added. The trade mission could not have been more timely, as Arapahoe County’s Board of Commissioners were convening their own meetings with oil and gas industry leaders, citizens and the state rule-making authority, The Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Administration (COGCC). Faced with a highly politicized climate in the state that has seen some elected officials wantonly throwing around moratoriums, the board unanimously approved a memorandum of understanding that sets high standards for oil and gas operators beyond the

rigorous, comprehensive regulations already in place at the state level. “Businesses value consistent regulatory environments, and Arapahoe County is leading the way in Colorado to reassure the industry that there will be no surprises and we will not run them out of town,” Brackney said. “Our success both today and into the future depends on balance, something we need to see more of as Colorado determines how best to utilize natural resources like oil and gas.” The South Metro Denver Chamber continues to lead the way in building ‘Remarkable Relationships and a Thriving Community’ through its wide variety of programming and outreach to local, state, national and international business leaders.

Teacher evaluations trigger new protest By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com For the second time in a week, parents and students protested district action May 30 outside a Douglas County school. As a dispute rages over a new evaluation system, Saddle Ranch Elementary School is losing eight teachers — five to other districts and three to retirement. That loss amounts to more than a quarter of the school’s teachers. Saddle Ranch parents and students cheered, chanted and waved signs criticizing the school board and superintendent and praising teachers as Douglas County School District administrators met inside the school with the principal and staff. Parents had planned to attend the meeting with Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen to learn why none of their teachers earned a “highly effective” rating under DCSD’s new evaluation system, but weren’t allowed. School officials say the meeting was for staff only, and school board member Kevin Larsen reported May 31 that while the meeting was initially passionate, it ended peacefully. “I think (teachers) would even agree that in the end, while maybe all the answers that were explained weren’t everything they wanted, they felt they got the chance to express their disappointments, hear from us the explanations of what’s going on, and build a place for understanding moving forward,” Larsen said.

‘We think doing these things is going to make it better for the kids to learn.’ Kevin Larsen, school board member In addition to the eight departing teachers, four other staff members are leaving Saddle Ranch. Principal Ryan Craven said three teachers are retiring, and five are “making professional choices and moving to other districts.” The loss of those teachers inspired several parents to protest. “When you see your beloved teacher resign, it becomes personal,” parent Dina Chatwin said. “They’re the voices for our children. It’s time we be the voices for them.” The evaluations, new this year and tied to teacher pay increases and a new, market-based pay system, establish teacher rankings ranging from “highly effective” to “ineffective.” Across Highlands Ranch at Trailblazer Elementary, 70 percent of teachers got a “highly effective” rating, prompting a second, independent DCSD review and a May 23 parent/student protest. The concerns at Saddle Ranch were the opposite. “Saddle Ranch is a fantastic school,”

parent Brenda Greengold said, noting that the Highlands Ranch school has John Irwin School of Excellence and Colorado Governor’s Distinguished Improvement awards, as well as some Apple Award-winning teachers. “How in the world did we have all of these awards if none of our teachers are highly effective?” Craven, who spoke to Colorado Community Media during a conference call that also included DCSD spokeswoman Cinamon Watson, offered only positive comments about the evaluations and the May 30 meeting. “It was a great opportunity for our staff to connect with Dr. Fagen,” said Craven, principal of Saddle Ranch for almost a year. The evaluations represent “a shift in teaching,” Craven said, away from giving information to facilitating learning. “With something like that, there’s always equilibrium.” He believes that the feedback teachers are receiving, plus continued professional development, will improve the school over-

Michael Likens, Chamber Board Chairman, proudly presents the Chamber’s Business of the Month Award to John Cona and the Acme Brick staff as Chamber Ambassadors & staff show their support.

The Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce recently announced its May recipient for Business of the Acme Brick Month — Acme Brick Company.

all. “We’re going to lose some amazing teachers, but we’re gaining amazing teachers,” he said. “I’m very excited moving forward.” Teacher Eric Farrell, who attended the May 30 meeting with Fagen and Larsen, also was excited — but in a very different way. Farrell, whose wife teaches at Saddle Ranch, walked out of the meeting before it ended because “I couldn’t stand the tap dancing,” he said. “We are not honoring our teachers with their years (of service), their education,” he said, adding he believes younger, replacement teachers will use DCSD as a training ground, then move to districts offering higher salaries. “It’s going to become a revolving door. “They’re destroying the district, absolutely destroying it.” Larsen said salaries aren’t likely to drop. If anything, market forces will drive them up. That means teachers who might be at the top of the pay scale today would see a bump in pay in coming years. He acknowledged that change has been rapid, but believes it eventually will reap dramatic rewards. “We think doing these things is going to make it better for the kids to learn,” he said, but acknowledged: “This is in a lot of ways a lot of new territory. That is the challenge that a new system and the implementation of a new system does pose. We’re out doing our best.”

A former broadcast journalist and current Parker Fire Protection District board member is running for a seat on the Douglas County school board. Ronda Scholting, whose adult children attended Douglas County schools, believes it’s time for a new voice on the seven-member panel. “It looks like the school district I moved my kids to Douglas County for is not the same,” she Scholting said. “I decided something needed to be done to try to change the direction they’ve been taking us.” Four board members’ terms expire this November, including those held by Doug Benevento, Carrie Mendoza, Meghann Silverthorn and President John Carson. Carson is term-limited and cannot run again. Scholting is running for the District G seat, currently held by Silverthorn.

A public relations manager for the Denver-based RE/MAX real estate company, Scholting worked in the past as a reporter and anchor for Denver’s KMGH-TV Channel 7, followed by a self-employed period in which she researched and reported stories for national media including ABC, CBS and CNN. “Being a reporter is sort of like being a public servant,” she said. “Since I’m no longer a reporter, I feel like I still owe some public service.” Scholting is concerned about some of the board’s fiscal decisions, compensation for upper administration and changes to the high schools’ schedules. “Where they think the money should go is not where I and my neighbors think it should go — which is in the classroom,” she said. Many of Scholting’s Parker neighbors have teenagers enrolled in Douglas County high schools, most of which adopted a block schedule that has received both praise and criticism. “The parents in my neighborhood are very concerned about the quality of education their kids are getting and how much time they’re spending in the classroom,” she said. Scholting questions the current board’s overall use of taxpayer dollars,

including the setting aside of large reserves she feels could benefit students. “I don’t mean to spend every penny of taxpayer dollars; I’m fiscally responsible,” she said. “It just doesn’t seem like we’re getting a good return. “We also need to take another look at what administrators are making, the philosophy around big bonuses, and decide if those people sitting in the building in Wilcox are where we need to be investing the money.” The Douglas County School District administration offices are on Wilcox Street in Castle Rock. Scholting is a Democrat. Though the office is officially nonpartisan, all current school board members are Republicans, and the Douglas County Republicans plan to invest money in the November election to support pro-education reform candidates. “When it comes to the school board, there should be no partisanship,” said Scholting, noting she has bipartisan support. “It should be what’s best for students, teachers and taxpayers. There are many people who don’t believe the direction this board is heading is best for the community. I feel like I have a lot of support to move the district back toward where it was when I moved here.”

t school-finance ball is in voters’ court Lobato ruling means no quick rescue for funding

azing achg for-

By Vic Vela

Cindy Stevenson. Jeffco schools was one of 67 plaintiffs in the high-profile Lobato case. The case originated from a 2005 lawsuit that was named after a San Luis Valley family who alleged that Colorado was not living up to its constitutional mandate of providing a “thorough and uniform” system of funding for education. Plaintiffs argued that the state’s funding system particularly affects poor students and that money is not equally allotted among school districts. A state district court agreed with the plaintiffs in 2011. However, the state Supreme Court overturned that decision, ruling that school-financing decisions should be left to lawmakers, and not for the courts to remedy. “While the trial court’s detailed findings of fact demonstrate that the current public school financing system might not be ideal policy, this court’s task is not to determine `whether a better financing system could be devised,’ but rather to determine `whether the system passes Constitutional muster,’” wrote Justice Nancy Rice in the court’s majority opinion. Douglas County School Board President John Carson welcomed last week’s ruling. “This case was not just about school

Fire lays waste to three RVs Smoke from storage facility could be seen for miles By Rhonda Moore

rmoore@ourcolorado news.com A recreational vehicle caught fire and spread to two other RVs at a Castle Rock storage park when an owner of one started the engine while working on the vehicle. The fire was at Castle Mini Storage on Liggett Road, causing a smoke cloud that was visible from as far away as The Mead-

ows. The Castle Rock Fire Department got the 911 call about the fire at 3:35 p.m. May 28 and arrived to find three RVs in flames, said Caroline Kipp, town spokeswoman. The fire started when the owners of the first RV were working on their vehicle. When the engine was started it caught fire, Kipp said. The fire was under control by 4 p.m., but not before destroying three RVs. The RV storage park is near the Douglas County Justice Center and the town’s Plum Creek water treatment plant.

funding, the Lobato case threatened the unique role of local boards of education in overseeing the establishment, funding and maintenance of public schools and the public school finance system,” Carson said. “We believe that local boards of education and the General Assembly are the most appropriate forums for addressing the specific and unique needs of local school districts.” Gov. John Hickenlooper, a supporter of the court’s decision, told reporters that the high court did not rule that schools are funded adequately, but that a civil action “was not the right way to increase that funding.” Although Stevenson said she was disappointed with the court’s decision, she agrees with the governor’s assessment of the ruling. “What it says that is that it needs to be determined through the people or the Legislature, and not for the court system to remedy,” she said. “I don’t think either side is cheering about this.” Republican lawmakers released statements in favor of the court’s ruling. Senate Minority Leader Bill Cadman of Colorado Springs said the decision “affirms the constitutional authority of an elected legislative

body to represent the people of this state.” Rep. Carole Murray, R-Castle Rock, said that “a plaintiff victory would have drained the general fund and intruded on the General Assembly’s constitutional authority to appropriate taxpayer dollars.” Colorado’s K-12 education system already consumes about 40 percent of the state’s general fund. Supporters of the decision said that, had the court sided with the plaintiffs, it would have put a greater burden on the state. Now, the focus turns to Senate Bill 213, which has been dubbed the Future School Finance Act. The legislation, which has been signed by Hickenlooper, would fund full-day kindergarten and provide more money for atrisk students and English learners. The act also aims to fund school districts in a more equitable fashion. State Republican lawmakers flatly objected to the bill this past legislative session, arguing that the act imposes a $1 billion tax increase on Coloradans without addressing true reform needs. But bill supporters say there is now a greater sense of urgency for voters to pass the tax hike, on the heels of the Lobato decision.

OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS

A smart direction on school safety Armed guards patrol banks, ballparks and airports. It is rarely argued they are out of place in those venues. Schools are different. They are places of learning, places for children, our nation’s most precious resource. Years after Columbine, months after Sandy Hook, talk of placing armed security personnel in schools evokes a broad range of reactions. If done wrong, such a move could be disruptive and create fear among students. But if done right, there is little to lose and perhaps, lives to be saved. We see a partnership in Douglas County between the school district and local law enforcement agencies as an example of a way to bolster security while allowing for an unfettered learning environment. Beginning with the next school year in August, plainclothes officers from the sher-

OUR VIEW

iff’s office and three police departments will patrol the county’s public elementary and middle schools. At the high school level, armed resource officers have been a presence on campus for years. A safety committee’s work on this new program began shortly after December’s mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut. It is a multifaceted plan that incorporates security measures beyond the presence of officers, including improved screening of visitors and enhanced use of technology.

But the move to place armed officers on campuses, announced May 30, is what has made headlines. That’s understandable. Creating a police state at our schools is not something anyone should want. To be clear, though, that’s not what is being planned in Douglas County. The School Marshal Program will see deputies and police officers assigned to schools in nearby proximity, and the officers will be a daily presence at the schools. The plan is to allow for greater ability to respond to an incident, as well as be a deterrent to those with ill intent. “We’re not aware of any other program like this in the country,” said Elizabeth Fagen, superintendent of the Douglas County School District. Strengthening community bonds is among the most laudable elements of the

program. Douglas County’s safety committee has representatives from law enforcement agencies, the school district and various community members. Some may question whether the program will be worth its price tag — at least $500,000 on the part of the school district and an undisclosed amount absorbed by the law enforcement agencies. It’s a fair question, but we’re not prepared to set a dollar limit on children’s safety. Douglas County is among the most affluent areas of the entire nation, and the program’s cost may make it prohibitive for many school districts and communities to fully implement. But the root ideas of a multi-pronged approach and community cooperation are worthy of serious consideration in Colorado and around the country.

Everyday lives can be heroic Look on the bright side of wife The everyday heroes are the most important ones. “The world’s battlefields have been in the heart chiefly; more heroism has been displayed in the household and the closet than on the most memorable battlefields in history.” American politician Henry Ward Beecher gave us that profound quote back in the 1800s, but it was never truer than it is today. The three main lessons I have learned as a hospice chaplain are: the importance of every life, the sacredness of each death and the magnitude of everyone’s grief. The confluence of those lessons reveals that every life matters and has impact and influence that are beyond measure. Every day, whether we know it or not, we look for inspiration from a hero and every day has opportunities for everybody to be a hero. My sons were in town last week with their young sons — 5 months and 14 months. They came to celebrate their sister’s high school graduation from Castle View High School. One son lives in Ohio and the other in Texas, so it was the first time we were all together since Gram and Hayes were born. This grandfather experience was new for me and I was filled with pride and pleasure as I saw my family grow and each of my children’s lives expanding. In a new way my eyes were opened to the impact of their lives on their sons and my hopes of extending the legacy of my life and values to a new generation. Beecher was right, “heroism is displayed in the household.” My dad was my hero. I didn’t realize it when I was growing up. He seemed too ordinary to be a hero by what I thought heroes were. He was not a great athlete. He was not famous or even popular. He lived a faithful life of quiet devotion to his God, country, family and job. Yesterday the flag that draped his casket arrived at my house. I’m glad to have it and proudly display it, two years after his death, because now I recognize how much I admired him and how important he was to me. His service in World War II as a machine gunner on a B-17 that was shot down earned him the flag and my admiration. But his everyday labor to provide for the family and his attentiveness to the events of my life over the years is what made him such a large part of my life. I don’t think there is a day that I don’t think of him in some way that is small but meaningful. In the second chapter of my book, “Welcome to the Big Leagues,” I talk about my dad but also the baseball player Darrel

Chaney and his baseball hero Ernie Banks. Ernie took time to give a boy an autograph that he posted over his bed and looked at every day. After a brief conversation, Ernie wrote on the Little League banquet program, “I’ll see you in the Big Leagues.” These words motivated Darrel every day, which inspired his hope as much as watching Ernie play baseball. The combination produced a poignant scene at first base at Wrigley Field nine years later when Ernie greeted Darrel with the words, “Welcome to the big leagues! I knew you’d make it.” Dad and Ernie had hero qualities. They lived like their lives mattered. They took time to pay attention to young guys who only had dreams and potential. They spoke words into the young guys’ lives in ways that seemed forgettable, but instead gave a future to both Darrel and me. And they celebrated our accomplishments in uninhibited displays of contagious pride and pleasure. We need everyday heroes today to encourage and inspire each other. Our circumstances exhaust and disappoint us. We require people who affirm and strengthen the way we feel and think about ourselves. The faith community possesses the hero message and potential. “Even when I am old and gray, do not forsake me, my God, till I declare your power to the next generation, your mighty acts to all who are to come.” (Psalm 71:18) The Scripture challenges me with responsibility but it also inspires me with the significance of my life and that I matter to my sons and grandsons. Maybe someday they will call me their hero because in the little events of everyday life, my life is more important than I see. I can believe my life matters. Everybody can believe that. Then we can find and be the most important kind of hero, an everyday hero.

The song goes “Always look on the bright side of your wife,” I think. And that’s exactly what I have been doing, since the day of my illegitimate marriage to Jennifer. For better or for worse, you will see a different writer now. I get favorable emails from readers who look forward to a grumpy old man every week, and I want to apologize to them if the new me is too benign and too innocuous. For years and years I have been a grouch, partly because of Groucho and others who tend to grumble their way through life, not with anger, but with humor. Listening to, watching, and reading us is an acquired taste, like Brussels sprouts, which I have never acquired. I have been told that sarcasm is a disease. Well, I happen to like the disease, but it must be influenced by humor. Otherwise it’s just ranting. Read a few letters to the editor, especially about things like gun control (an oxymoron), to see what I mean. My illegitimate marriage has changed all of that. I can read the daily paper without exasperation. I can leave the house without exasperation. I can be around people without being exasperated by their behavior and annoying mannerisms. I have a profound disbelief in weddings. They are a form of fraud that involves billions of dollars, probably, annually, and wedding planners. The biggest weddings are bigger frauds, with Franckier Francks. Our wedding lasted half a minute, if that. It was performed by my best friend Mike, who flew in from Lafayette, Calif., to do it, even though he didn’t know he was going to be doing it until he got off the plane. I told him I wanted him here to compete in a bocce tournament with Jennifer and me and her oldest daughter Casey,

who would be his teammate. I told him to bring a crying towel. The tournament was on a Saturday. The wedding was supposed to take place afterwards in my kitchen. We had a song picked out (“Little Talks” by Of Monsters and Men), and prepared some heartfelt gibberish about our love for each other, just like what goes on in churches. But Casey, who was supposed to be our witness and ring bearer, couldn’t make it, so we had to regroup without her. We regrouped on Sunday. I asked my best friend Greg to help out. I have two best friends, if you’re wondering. We met at Il Fornaio, sat in a booth, and Franck turned out to be a waiter named Fritz, who simply kept bringing the bottled water and risotto to the table. We are leasing the marriage for five years. We turn this one in just like a leased Accord. It’s illegitimate, like I said. It’s not even a common-law marriage. I now have three illegitimate children and an illegitimate dog that I didn’t have a month ago. None of them will ever live with me. I don’t have to feed them, clothe them, or tweeze their fleas. Jennifer is not going to live with me either. We will paint together and travel together. It’s perfect. Smith continues on Page 11

Pat yourself on the back, Colorado

Way to go Colorado!! For the past two months I have had many friends, relatives and climit- ents visit our great state and they had ce- come in from many different parts of the country. Most either stayed at my home or rented a hotel nearby. oAs we attended events and particiast pated in business meetings, we also ict had the opportunity to do some sightby seeing as well as just spending time r with friends and in local establisha ments. The comments were so consistently positive that I felt compelled to share some of their experiences and the observations as they enjoyed their e time here in Colorado. iI think the most consistent theme eas was the relaxed or laid-back nature of the people here in Colorado. They ous recognize that we have a state full the of highly competitive and spirited athletes and business professionals, but they noticed that it is a healthy sense of competition and fair play. And as they described that laid-back or relaxed feeling, they included how nice the people are even as we were walking down the street. Obviously everyone has pointed to the beauty and majesty of the mountains and the Colorado landscape, and although we can’t actually take credit for that, we can take credit for making the decision to make Colorado our home. I heard positive feedback about

everything from the customers in the grocery store or local shops to the people who work there and serve the community. Most everyone smiles and most everyone seemed to take a genuine interest. Even my friends, co-workers, and family from back east commented on how much more relaxed our roadways are compared to the hustle and bustle of the commutes in other parts of the country, particularly back east. One friend recognized that you hardly ever hear anyone blowing or honking their horn. It would seem like they would almost rather miss that traffic light and wait for the next one instead of beeping their horn at the person in front of them. If anything they noticed the tiniest and gentlest little beep. Just enough to get someone’s attention without offending them. That of course is contrasted to someone leaning on their horn as loudly and for as long as they possibly can back east or in other major metropoli-

“You shouldn’t have.” “But you told me to. And what. And where to get it.” “Oh, right.” “Love’s happiness is just an illusion, filled with sadness and confusion.” I don’t believe that. Love is the drug, but it’s nearly impossible to find. Jennifer and I have found it, and I am a new man, looking on the bright

tan areas. We even received credit for how well we get along in the parks and open spaces offered here in Colorado. We have such beautiful parks but what caught the attention of my guests was that there was no bickering or squabbling over space, no one getting in each other’s space, and actually quite the opposite, in most examples we witnessed people joining parties and coming together as a community. So from the pizza parlors and bars, to the parks and open spaces, to the shops and grocery stores, and yes even to the drivers who make up our morning and evening commutes, you have all been recognized for your courteous, polite and chivalrous personalities and behaviors. Way to go Colorado and Coloradans!! I hope you are proud of our community. You certainly play a major role in making the experience for us all and our visitors a better place to live. And if you have a “Colorado Pride” story, I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And come on Colorado, let’s make this a better than good week!

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Most of the 32 students who graduated from Daniel C. Oakes High School May 30 offered a shared sentiment: Amazement and gratitude that they were standing at the lectern on graduation day. Several students, all of whom were allowed to make short speeches during the ceremony, started with a single word: “Wow.” “I didn’t think I was going to make it here today, but I did,” said Marco Trujillo, whose words sparked thunderous applause from the crowd gathered at Castle Rock Middle School. Castle Rock’s DC Oakes is an alternative high school that combines personalized instruction, outdoor education and an arts program to offer a different experience to students who struggled in a traditional high school setting. Many chose DC Oakes instead of dropping out, some with little faith that it would make a difference in their lives. Not only did the 32 students graduate from high school, 27 of them plan to go to college. Principal Mark Morgan congratulated them for their resiliency and well-earned pride. With a high school diploma, “You’ve already set yourselves up to have a better life,” he said. “You will live longer and have healthier lives. You will earn approximately $200,000 more over the course of your lives than if you had chosen to drop out.” The school was a perfect match for Ryan

Like her classmates, DC Oakes graduate Cheyenne Drake hugged friends and family in the audience during the May 30 graduation ceremony. Photo by Jane Reuter Fleury, who felt out-of-step at Douglas County High School. “As I was falling apart, I got into Oakes,” he said. “This school’s like a family.” “I have to say DC Oakes is amazing,” said his mother, Melissa Fleury, wiping away tears. “He was on a bad path. He’s never felt like teachers cared before he came here.” Graduating seniors repeatedly referenced the sense of family they feel among the school’s students, teachers and staff. “Whoever said Disneyland was the happiest place on earth obviously hasn’t been to DC Oakes,” Kelliann Oxley said. “This school gave me the change I needed,” Tanner Lane said. “These diplomas aren’t just pieces of paper to us. They’re a chance for a better future.”

Virtual school gets real for graduation Students say online study helped them reach goals By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Joseph Bond hopes someday to be a professional hockey player. He might not have a shot if not for eDCSD, the online high school from which he recently graduated. “It’s helped me follow my dreams,” said Bond, a Highlands Ranch resident. Bond started high school at Rock Canyon, but switched to the online option when hockey took him on the road and out of state. “The past two years, I get up, do my hockey and workout, then get on the computer in my room and just do my work,” Bond said. “It’s hard being away from all your friends. But it’s nice because I can work at my own pace.” Bond so far has played hockey in Washington and Canada, and next year will join a team in Maine. “My ultimate goal is to get as far as I can,” he said. “I want to try to get a scholarship to play in a Division 1 college school.” eDCSD also helped Christina Griggs reach professional heights most high school students never could imagine. She already is a recognized expert in World War I German aviation, in large part because online school enabled her to travel, speak and study abroad. “White-haired professors from around the world have consulted with me on various occasions, and are always shocked to learn that I am a teenage girl,” Griggs said in a speech she gave during the May 23 eDCSD graduation ceremony at Rock Can-

yon High School. “Two non-fiction authors have cited me in their published works, and a war museum in Poland has offered to fly me out to be featured as one their main curators and historians during a grand opening of a special aviation section. “If I had continued to go to a brick-andmortar high school, I doubt any of these endeavors would have been possible.” Principal Sohne Van Selus is proud but not surprised by the stories from her 2013 graduates, the third eDCSD graduating class. “People tell us we’re the best-kept secret in Douglas County when they find out about us,” she said. About 250 students are enrolled in K-12 eDCSD, most of them high schoolers. They include athletes, actors, students who are ill or working, and those who simply don’t do well in a traditional setting. Formerly an assistant principal at Rock Canyon, Van Selus said working as principal of an online school is not as dissimilar from leading a traditional school as it appears. “I don’t get to walk down the hall and high-five kids like I used to when I was at Rock Canyon,” she said. “But I do receive direct instant messaging. I’ll have students who, as though they were walking into my office, will send me a chat. They’re sharing information with me in a real-time fashion. It replaces the open-door policy I’ve always had.” Like other principals, her main objective is to help students learn. “It’s more about ensuring that students have an opportunity to really personalize their educational journey, select opportunities that fit them, allow them as an individual to meet their greatest potential through a different environment,” she said.

Garden brings community together Plants, people both thrive at 42-acre spread near Parker North By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz @ourcoloradonews.com If Ed Shaw has his way, he’ll be gardening until he “kicks the bucket.” Shaw is one of the many characters to put their roots down in the Parker Community Garden, a 42-plot spread at Longs Way and Brownstone Drive. After downsizing eight years ago from acreage property in the Oklahoma panhandle to an apartment in Parker, Shaw discovered the community garden and realized he had an opportunity to again put his green thumb to work. The 73-year-old oversaw a flourishing 60-by-20-foot garden back in Oklahoma, and because of the climate and soil in Colorado, he is able to grow just as many vegetables in a 20-by-20foot garden bed. He has a mental laundry list of techniques to help his plants thrive, including methods that separately utilize Clorox, banana peels and plastic wrap. Even Valerie Holden, the self-described Parker Community Garden guardian,

has picked up some pointers from the Oklahoma transplant and his wife, Bonnie, over the six years they have rented a plot. There is a cast of dedicated gardeners ranging in age from 12 to 82, Holden says. Each year, there is a waiting list to get into the low-cost community garden, and she

brings a side dish that includes fresh-picked produce. Holden, who has been coming every year since 1988, says the garden can be used as a teaching tool because people often don’t know where the food they consume comes from. Outside of that, it can be

If they want to come to Douglas County, they’re going to wonder, `Is there a police officer in that school?’ That’s a risk they’re going to have to take.” DCSD formed a safety committee immediately following the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting, and the marshal program is part of a series of measures that arose

from that group. Those include training for school staff, structural changes in schools such as improved exterior doors, new locks, additional cameras and exterior lighting, established safe areas, stepped-up visitor screening and enhanced district-wide communication. DCSD school security already includes locked doors and safety personnel at the front doors of each building, safety and lockdown drills, and many other programs.

hile the job market appears to be col on the mend, recent college graduates know they need to go the extra mile in order to get a foot in the door of their desired profession. And according to a Legal Momentum analysis of data from the U.S. Census Bureau, young women with college degrees may face an even more difficult battle than their male counterparts. dis The earnings disparity between men and qualifica women of similar qualifications has long been known and can be traced to a host of factors (for example, men tend lucra to earn degrees in more lucrative fields than women), but women are also facing lower employment rates than men, despite holding an advantage in educational attainment.

you become to prospective employers. Don’t be afraid to take an internship after graduation. Many young people think internships are only valuable while they are in college. But an internship after you have graduated can be just as valuable, especially in an ultracompetitive job market like the one today’s graduates have found themselves in. Even if the internship won’t earn you a dime, it’s a chance to get your foot in the door and gain experience. Many companies are more inclined to consider past or current interns for full-time entry level positions than they are outside candidates. Don’t be afraid to expand your job search to internships even if you already earned a college degree. Such opportunities might just prove your best chance to get your foot in the door. Volunteer. Volunteering is a great way to give back, avoid the stir craziness that can accompany unemployment and

analyzing data on women between the ages of 21 and 30, Legal Momentum found that 30 percent had a bachelor’s degree, while just 23 percent of men in the same age bracket had a bachelor’s degree. Young women aware of such figures should rightfully be concerned. While there may be little recent female college graduates can do to address those concerns, there are steps they can take to improve their chances of landing a job in their chosen fields. Get experience. Any experience in your chosen field, regardless of how small your role might be, is potentially valuable experience. A willingness to tackle any task and get a better grasp of the industry will stand out to a prospective employer, especially if you are currently working as an intern with no promise of a full-time position come the end of your internship. The more you can learn about the industry you hope to work in, the more attractive

put something positive on your resume rather than a big gap. In addition, volunteering can be a great opportunity to meet people and do some networking. A fellow volunteer might work in your field or know someone who does, and this person or persons can prove an invaluable resource for a young person just starting out. Stay focused. A job hunt can be exhausting, and it’s easy for a young unemployed person to grow disillusioned about a process that seems to rely so heavily on randomness. But studies show that young women are already facing an uphill battle when looking for a job, and losing focus or allowing yourself to be discouraged will only make that hill more steep. If you are truly passionate about your field of study and devoted to finding a job within that field, then your chance will come if you remain patient and continue to focus on your job hunt. ■ Metro Creative Services

Collector’s

Indian artifacts exhibited Brandebery helped found Douglas County Historical Society By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com More than 40 American Indian artifacts loaned by local educator, historian and rancher Kent Brandebery are exhibited at the Castle Rock Historical Museum, 420 Elbert St., through Aug. 1. Included are woven rugs from several tribes, baskets, a mano and metate, a musket, an umbilical amulet (beaded turtle), Indian Peace Medals and more. Brandebery said this is the second display he has exhibited at the museum, from a collection started by his mother and father, which he has continued to expand through the years. (The first display was on the first saddle-maker in Douglas County.) As a child, Brandebery lived in Sioux Country, Sundance, Wyo., and spent time on the Navajo and Cheyenne reservations while his mother taught there. His familiarity with American Indian arts and history has accumulated throughout a rich life. Castle Rock has been his home since 1938, he said, but during World War II, his father and older half brother were in the service and he, his mother and sister lived in Littleton, near the cemetery, so the children could attend school there. Brandebery remembers working at the historic Littleton Cemetery and playing his bugle in the Veterans Circle during a Memorial Day program. His Littleton ties continued later through involvement with the Littleton Historical Museum and its animals.

Esquire magazine loves Denver, or at least two of its bars. Esquire includes Williams & Graham in the Highland neighborhood and downtown’s Ship Tavern in the famed Brown Palace Hotel in its top 17 (really, 17?) list of best bars in the U.S. Esquire writes about Williams & Graham, a unique bar with a 1920s speakeasy feel: “Williams & Graham is a love letter to the old saloon, but one conceived by a third-generation bartender who knows the difference between playing bartender and really tending bar.” Esquire suggests ordering the Unrefined Ruffian at Williams & Graham. See the review at www.esquire. com/features/best-bars-in-america2013#slide-5. About Ship Tavern, Esquire suggests ordering a Johnny Walker Black Manhattan and writes: “Ship Tavern, tucked away in the historic heap of bricks that is the Brown Palace Hotel, is at that peculiar stage in a fancy joint’s life when it wants to be a dive. It’s not decrepit per se, but you can feel the gravitational pull of decrepitude. Somehow that’s alluring. Maybe it’s because that same black hole is pulling on us every single day. In any case, it is very pleasant to drink your (large) cocktails here (stick to the basics) amid the headscratching, comprehensive nautical decor (in Denver?), which dates back at least to the 1930s.” See the review at www.esquire. com/features/best-bars-in-america2013#slide-4.

Denver fifth-fittest city

A woven basket with a deer design is in Kent Brandebery’s collection displayed at the Castle Rock History Museum. After post-graduate work at the University of Wyoming, he had an internship at the Buffalo Bill Museum in Cody, Wyo., and taught at Sinte Gleska Sioux College. A connection with Richard Kahn, then curator of American Indian art at the Denver Art Museum, provided educational materials for his students. Brandebery went on to become an instrumental music teacher in high school and later in elementary school, retiring in the 1990s and starting a Civil War-style brass band, the Castle Rock Band, which just performed a Memorial Day program. (It needs more members, he says.) He has been interested in local history since 1960 and helped found the Douglas

County Historical Society, which then split into a group of more local groups, including the Castle Rock Historical Society, which restored the 1875 rhyolite stone Denver and Rio Grande Depot for use as a historical museum in 1996. Brandebery said his favorite artifacts are those from the Plains Indians — from Mexico to the Canadian border, “not from a special place.” This stems from his early Wyoming days. He explains the inclusion of some pieces from the Tarahumara Indians from Copper Canyon in Mexico. “They are much like the early people of Mesa Verde,” he said. Someone abandoned a group of them in Denver in the late 1980s and he put them up on his ranch for a week or so until the Mexican government could work out a way to get them home. They gave Brandebery artifacts in thanks. At that time, he found a Larkspur resident who spoke the dialect to help with communications — another example of his community connections. “All the things I do, I have to depend on the community — what goes around comes around,” Brandebery said. “I have an obligation …”

if you go

A Southern Cheyenne rug, musket and buffalo horn from Kent Brandebery’s collection are being exhibited.

Kent Brandebery’s collection will be exhibited until Aug. 1 at the Castle Rock Historical Museum, 420 Elbert St., Castle Rock. Hours: noon to 5 p.m. Wednesdays through Fridays. 303-814-3164, email crmuseum@comcast.net. Admission is free.

Denver ranked fifth of the most fit cities in the U.S., according to annual American Fitness Index, a study done by the American College of Sports Medicine. Minneapolis-St. Paul ranked first for the third year in a row in the study, which is based various health behaviors including smoking, exercise, obesity rates, chronic health problems and access to health care. The ACSM report also considers other factors, such as availability of parks, recreational facilities, walking trails and farmers’ markets. Health and medical experts designed the fitness index, which analyzed the 50 most populous metropolitan areas in the U.S. Washington, D.C., was second, followed by Portland, San Francisco and Denver.

Douglas County: Here’s the money

In a Forbes magazine report this week, the money mag lists Colorado’s Douglas County as the eighth-richest county in the U.S. Forbes cites the county “boasts the ritzy enclave of Castle Pines, known for its world-class country club and golf course.” Five Virginia suburbs of Washington, D.C., highlight the list as do two New Jersey suburban New York City counties.

Much-traveled painter’s work on display Canum exhibit held at Denver Art Gallery

if you go “Martha Canum: Four Seasons” will hang at Denver Art Gallery, 2516 E. Colfax Ave., Denver, from June 8 to 25. Gallery hours: noon to 6 p.m. on Tuesdays through Saturdays. 303-881-7099, thedenverartgallery.com.

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “On the wall of my studio hangs a picture from the Sept. 7, 1995, edition of the Littleton Independent,” wrote painter Martha Canum. “It is of the Rapp Street Artists’ Studio artists busily preparing for a special showing at the Depot Art Center. Some of these artists are still active, a few not so much,” she recalls of the 20 or so members, who included rita derjue, Addie Voils, Delores Peterson, Skippy Haggerty and others. “What a time we had!” Canum moved to Southern California to be with her children in the 1990s, then returned to the Colorado town of Delta in 2000, where she found interesting arts activities. Five years ago, she moved to Castle Rock with her daughter and son-in-law, Cheryn and John Weathers. “It’s a wonderful place,” she said. Her daughter says that Canum was born and raised in Colorado, growing up with a love of the outdoors and gardening. For a time, she lived in Japan, and spent time in Hong Kong and China, which af-

fected her perspective on the world and how she paints it. Canum majored in art at the University of Northern Colorado and came back to her love of art after her children were grown, studying in classes with local and national painters. An inventory of paintings often travels with an artist as she covers the miles and years. Canum, a prolific painter in watercolors, oils, pastels and acrylics, of landscapes, florals, still lifes and more, is invited to exhibit about 60 of her works in a show called “Martha Canum: Four Seasons” at the Denver Art Gallery, 2516 E. Colfax Ave., Denver, from June 8 to 25. An opening reception is planned from 3 to 5 p.m. on June 8. Because she has been away from the area, she is still hoping to find ways to reconnect with old artist friends and former patrons who live nearby. She thinks others from the local group may be interested in exhibiting work at the Denver Art Gallery.

This still life by Martha Canum will be in her “Four Seasons” show. Courtesy photo

Nifty fifty

One of my favorite Denver movers and shakers, Sean Duffy, hosted his big 5-0 b-day recently at The Palm restaurant in The Westin Downtown Denver as a fundraiser for Steve Farber’s American Transplant Foundation. The party, dubbed $50 for 50, attracted a ton o’ Duffy fans from both sides of the aisle. Duffy is a famous Republican who has supported several liberal political efforts, but this was all about raising money for transplant participants. “Our `50 for 50’ event designated every dollar raised to the American Transplant Foundation’s `Patient Assistance Program’ at Children’s Hospital,” Duffy said. “What this program does is give families — mostly

from rural areas — assistance with basic living expenses (mortgage, rent, utilities, etc.) while their children are awaiting or recovering from transplant surgery, most often kidney or bone marrow transplants. “I am on the board of the American Transplant Foundation — along with a ton of the really interesting folks in town — which was founded by Steve Farber, after he received a lifesaving kidney donation from his son nine years ago. Farber was one of the first folks who befriended me and really gave me an introduction to Colorado when I came here in 2001 and I admire him and (his law partner) Norm Brownstein immensely.” The bipartisan group of people you will be interested in who were there: Farber; Barry Hirschfeld; Dan Hopkins, former press secretary to Gov. Bill Owens (he and Duffy started with Owens on the same day in 2001); PR pros Jeff Julin and Mike Gaughen of MGA communications; David Kenney, The Kenney Group (where Duffy works); Kelly Brough (CEO of the Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce); Josh Hanfling; John Zakhem; Jason Dunn, former Deputy AG and now with Brownstein Hyatt and Farber; and David McReynolds.

Duffy opined on his halfcentury mark by saying: “I’ve pretty much been an old fart my whole life, so my age is catching up to my general demeanor. And since (his better half) Susan and I have 2-yearold Brendan Duffy at home, my goal has been to get him out of diapers before I get in them. “When you turn 50, you realize how lucky and blessed you’ve been and how much other people helped along the way. So this was an opportunity for Susan and me to say thanks and help out some families who are at an incredibly challenging point in their lives.”

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com In 1937, Theodor Seuss Geisel (19041991), known to millions as Dr. Seuss, was visited by his sister, Marnie, who reported that he had a peculiar hobby of collecting hats of every description and was thinking of using them as a foundation for his next book. That book, his second of 44, was “The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins.” Bartholomew’s red hat with a jaunty feather was inspired by a childhood hero — Robin Hood. Characters in his subsequent books almost all sported distinctive hats as well. “In the beginning, Bartholomew Cubbins didn’t have 500 hats. He had only one hat,” the story begins. Readers will recall how they multiplied each time he removed one. In honor of the book’s 75th anniversary, a special “Hats Off to Dr. Seuss!” exhibition, approved by Geisel’s widow, Audrey Geisel, will include a selection from the beloved author’s hat closet plus “Secret Art,” estateauthorized works adapted from original drawings, paintings and sculpture by that prolific man. Since Geisel’s early teen years, he was fascinated by hats and saw them as a reflec-

He entertained friends by spinning stories as he changed hats to become different characters. This collection, which debuted at the New York Public Library, will be exhibited in

Denver from June 21 to July 14 at Clayton Lane Fine Art in Denver. On June 21, Bill Dreyer, The Art of Dr. Seuss Project curator, will be at the gallery to talk about the works. He will speak about 7 p.m. Dreyer has worked with Audrey Geisel, who decided to share art that had not been seen before in

this exhibit. The famous Cat in the Hat, he said, was Dr. Seuss’ alter ego: “The cat from the wrong side of the tracks.” Paintings in the traveling show are more elaborate than the children’s illustrations, illustrating a labyrinthine imagination. “Part of his brilliance is that you come away from the books with a message — in `Horton Hears a Who,’ for example: `A person’s a person, no matter how small …’” Dreyer said in a phone interview that there will be 26 hats from the collection. They have never been shown before — they have been in the closet. Prints and sculptures copied from the originals will be included in the exhibit and will be for sale. The archived originals will eventually go to a museum, Dreyer said.

Tough get going at Stampede rodeo Stampede schedule covers three days Famed Elizabeth event kicks off with bull-riding

ELIZABETH STAMPEDE GETS XTREME

rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com

What: 2013 Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo When: June 7-9 Where: Casey Jones Park, 4189 Highway 86, in Elizabeth

The Elizabeth Stampede entered the 2013 season with a new tagline to celebrate its status as “A Colorado Rodeo Legend.” But in Elizabeth, legend begins with tradition June 7 when the 2012 Pro Rodeo Cowboy Association Small Rodeo of the Year launches, literally and figuratively, with its Xtreme Bulls competition. Xtreme Bulls is the Stampede’s opening-night rodeo, featuring an all-star lineup of PRCA bull riders, including six bull-riding qualifiers from the 2012 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. The riders will be matched against some of the rankest bulls in the PRCA, hailing again this year from the Burns Rodeo

riders vying for the championship. The Elizabeth Xtreme Bulls champion will be crowned based on the highest score of the “one-header” competition, according to the Elizabeth Stampede board. The total payout for the Elizabeth Xtreme Bulls event is more than $20,000. Winnings at PRCA Xtreme Bulls events count toward the 2013 PRCA World Standings, which determine qualifiers for the Wrangler NFR in Las Vegas. Purchase tickets for the Elizabeth Xtreme Bulls event at www.elizabethstampede.com or by calling 303-646-0308. Adult tickets are $22 and tickets for children 6-12 years of age are $16.

Dave Pilot claims the timing was perfect for the Subaru Elephant Rock Cycling Festival. Pilot is training for his secondever Ironman competition, which will be held Sept. 9 in Madison, Wis., and the 49-year-old Denver resident is also grooming himself for the July 13-14 Triple Bypass Ride near Avon, Colo. He was one of close to 7,000 riders to participate in the annual Elephant Rock event, which began May 31 with the Optic Nerve 24 hours of ERock mountain bike race and concluded with several different rides June 2. The rides started and finished at the Douglas County Fairgrounds in Castle Rock. “It was early enough in the season and I will use it for training,” said Pilot. “It was my second long ride of the season so it’s kind of a base builder. The Elephant ride is well situated to train and get some miles in for that ride (Triple Bypass) as well. “It’s a good long distance, it’s rolling hills and challenging for the legs. It’s fairly similar to the course I’ll ride in Wisconsin in September.” Pilot rode the 100-mile course, which included a 38-mile loop through the Black Forest and traverses the high plains between Castle Rock and Colorado Springs. Russ Cupps, a West Metro firefighter who lives in Castle Pines North, participated this year in the 24 hours of ERock along with nearly 70 relay or solo teams on the 8.2-mile Rolling Thunder trail at the Greenland Open Space. “It was a long, tough day,” said Cupps. “We had a really good time. It was tough. Just 24 hours of digging out what’s inside to make it work. “There were eight of us. Each person would do a lap or two and hand off to the next person and go from there. It was a good time. We tried to both sleep and rest. We obviously had laps during the p.m. hours so we rested the best we could. The only thing we were missing was a hammock.” Cupps’ wife Angela and brother Randy got him into bike riding five years ago, and Elephant Rock

has become an annual ride. It was a few years ago that Cupps, an eventual kidney donor, noticed the American Transplant Tent and started asking questions. “My question to the gal (Katie Cierchi) was, `You can really donate something and still be alive?’ She said yeah,” he said. “It was her face and everything that kind of put the ball rolling. I looked into it. I asked at work, `Do I have to have two kidneys to work here?’ They’re like, `I don’t know.’ So we checked into the national standards and everything was good to go.” Cupps donated his kidney Sept. 28, 2010, to 22-year-old Justin Smith of Colorado Springs, and last year Cupps and Smith rode together in the 32-mile Elephant Rock ride. “It was the first ride he had ever done and it was neat to see him accomplish something like that,” said Cupps. Since his donation, Cupps has helped lay the groundwork for the West Metro firefighters to shortcut the timeline of getting donations to recipients. When there is a death at a scene and the victim has indicated he or she is a donor, by the time EMTs, police and a local coroner do their jobs it pushes the 12-hour limit for donations. “The heart on your driver’s license does not always mean you are going to be an organ donor if it’s not acted upon by the right people,” explained Cupps. “West Metro is the first fire and EMS agency in the nation where we can shortcut the timeline. If we are on a cardiac arrest that doesn’t make it or a DOA, we will actually call Colorado Donor Alliance from the field to notify them of the decedent so they can get the processes started a little bit sooner. Time is of the essence in something like that.” Four months ago, Robyn Leone donated a kidney to her husband, Jeff, and on June 2 they rode together on the 32-mile Elephant Run course. They crossed the finish line holding hands. “It was great to be out there,” said Jeff. “The first goal after the transplant was to ride in the Elephant Run. She (Robyn) allowed me to be an active participant. We really are a team now.” “Riding together was really fun,” said Robyn. For results, go to www.24hours oferock.com/results/.

And the Doctors believe one of the most important factors for the success of viscosupplementation is making sure you are getting it into the joint space. That’s why the doctors at Osteo Relief Institute use advanced imaging technology called a “C-Arm.” A C-Arm allows the doctor to see into the joint and actually watch the injection go where it is supposed to.

Free Knee Pain Screenings Offered To Help Determine If Colorado Springs Area Residents Qualify For Popular Treatment El Paso County area knee pain sufferers have limited time to claim knee pain screening to see if all-natural knee arthritis treatment might work for them

If you qualify for this treatment, it might be one of the happiest days of your life. That’s because, this year, hundreds of knee pain sufferers have flocked to Osteo Relief Institute located in Colorado Springs, Colorado. That’s when their specially trained doctors added Hyalgan treatments to their already successful and comprehensive knee pain relief program. Hyalgan is unique because - even though it is manufactured by a pharmaceutical company, it is in NOT considered a drug because it is a natural substance with an incredible story. Why So Many Want It You see, when you suffer with arthritis - the lubricating fluid (synovial fluid) in your knee joint dries up. This means instead of gliding smoothly - your bones start to rub and grind against each other. This causes a little pain in the beginning - but over time the pain steadily gets worse until it is excruciating. Like “Joint Oil” Hyalgan works so well because it is like “joint oil.” It is a natural substance that contains one of the natural building blocks of the synovial fluid that lubricates your knee. Scientists and researchers discovered this natural building block to synovial fluid in the rooster’s comb - that big red thing on top of the roosters head. It is extracted from the roosters comb, purified and concentrated. When it is injected directly into your knee joint, it is like squirting oil on a rusty door hinge. Hyalgan allows your joints to glide more smoothly eliminating a lot of the rubbing, grinding and pain. Can Supplements Do The Same Thing? No. Glucosamine and chondroitin and other supplements are much different. You can only get this from a doctor and it often helps knee pain sufferers who got limited or no success from

glucosamine and chondroitin. Beware of unsubstantiated claims made by supplements that claim to do what this advanced medical procedure does. Why You Should Try This Even If You’ve Already Had Similar Treatments Without results... “We have been able to help so many knee pain sufferers - even many who have already tried other injections like Synvisc, Supartz, Orthovisc and even Hyalgan. We use special and very advanced low-dose video fluoroscopy imaging called “Hologic Digital Imaging” so we can see right into the joint. This allows us to put the Hyaglan exactly where is needs to be. Studies show doctors doing joint injections without fluoroscopy miss the joint up to 30% of the time.” said the head of Arthritis Treatment at Osteo Relief Institute. Osteo Relief Institute is a state of the art medical facility offering only the best technology. And that’s not all - Osteo Relief Institute has a complete knee relief program called “P.A.C.E.” to make sure you get the most pain relief and the best possible results from treatment. “Every case is individual. Some patients get quite a bit of relief right away - others take a little more time. But most have been extremely happy and the results usually last for at least 6 months. Patients who were suffering for years with bad knee pain are getting their lives back... going for walks again and exercising. It’s amazing to see. They tell all their friends - that’s why we are swarmed. I can’t tell you how many patients have cancelled their total knee replacement surgeries.” added one doctor.

Successful Treatment - Hyalgan (blue) being precisely injected directly into the knee joint using hologic digital imaging. Advaced imaging allows treatments to be as precise as possible. Hyalgan can lubricate the joint and decrease pain.

Failed Treatment - the injection (and Hyalgan) misses the joint space. Research shows this occurs up to 30% of the time without the use of hologic digital imaging to guide the injection. This is why Hyalgan may not have worked for you.
