“The Best of the West” Parade returns for Bu alo Bill Days

Golden bans sale of flavored tobacco products in city limits

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Starting in 2024, Golden retailers won’t be able to sell avored tobacco products.

e Golden City Council unanimously passed an ordinance ending the sale of avored tobacco products in city limits, e ective Jan. 1. e goal, as city o cials described during the July 25 meeting, is to address the youth nicotine crisis, particularly around vaping.

In Je erson County, about 16.5% of high school students had vaped in the last 30 days, which is higher than both the state and national averages, according to statistics provided by the county health department.

During the nal weekend of July, Golden’s cowboys and cowgirls ride again.

e Bu alo Bill Days festival hosted its annual “ e Best of the West” Parade July 29, as thousands of people lined Washington Avenue

to see their favorite reenactors, horseriders, re ghters and more.

Dozens of local businesses, nonpro ts and equestrian groups like the iconic Bu alo Bill Saddle Club ride or march in the parade every summer. Attendees over the years have shared how much they appreciate the parade’s traditional Western air.

e parade, which was canceled in 2020 and 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic, returned last year. e event is a quintessential part of the four-day festival, drawing thousands of people to the festival and downtown Golden, organizers have said.

Golden City Council considered a similar measure in 2019 but didn’t pursue it, as councilors believed the Colorado legislature was moving forward with a statewide ban. When that didn’t materialize, Mayor Laura Weinberg said, several municipalities decided to proceed on their own.

Edgewater, Boulder, Glenwood Springs, Aspen and other municipalities have already enacted

One by one, the riders came forward to introduce themselves to the crowd, sharing their names and

their favorite foods. en, the reghters picked up the rider — who was wearing a helmet and chest pad — and set them atop a sheep. Sometimes the sheep would set o without prompting, and sometimes it’d be a little reluctant to move and just start meandering away.

e riders clung onto the sheep as long as they could before they fell onto the Lions Park Ball eld dirt. Once everyone had taken their turn, organizer and emcee Bob

Bush commended them all, saying, “You’re the bravest kids in town.”

On July 30, Golden’s annual Buffalo Bill Days festival hosted its traditional Mutton Bustin’ event with about 40 youngsters participating.

e event is open to any children 6 or younger, and 50 lbs or under, although Bush said it works on an honor system.

Bu alo Bill Days, which ran from July 26-30 this year, features live music, food and craft vendors, and

children’s activities throughout the weekend. ere are also special events for each day, such as the Wednesday golf tournament and Saturday’s pancake breakfast and parade doubleheader.

Bush, the president of Bu alo Bill Days, said the festival’s hosted Mutton Bustin’ for at least 20 years, becoming a Sunday morning tradition during the festival weekend.

Do Open Houses Help to Sell Homes? Some Sellers Believe It Only Benefits Agents

It’s true that most open houses held by my fellow real estate agents and myself do not directly lead to the sale of that listing, and some sellers will request no open houses be held. They have good reasons, too.

Myself, I’ve always said that you never know what will sell a house, so just try everything. And yes, I have sold homes to someone who came to that home’s open house. I also recognize that they came to the open house because they liked something about it and if there hadn’t been an open house, they might have called for a showing. It’s also true that some people come to an open house because it said “open, come in,” and they weren’t thinking about buying a home until they fell in love with that home at the open house. Open houses can indeed be a helpful tool when selling a home, although their effectiveness can depend on various factors such as the local real estate market, the property itself, and the strategies employed by the real estate agent.

Here are some ways that open houses might be beneficial to the seller:

1. Visibility: Open houses can increase the visibility of a home to potential buyers. They are typically advertised online, on yard signs, and in local newspapers, which can attract more attention to the listing.

2. Accessibility: Open houses make it easy for potential buyers to view the home without needing to schedule a private showing. This can attract more casual or early-stage buyers who might not have otherwise seen the home.

3. Pressure-free environment: Unlike private showings, open houses provide a less pressurized environment for potential buyers to view the home, which might make them more comfortable and open to considering the property.

4. Immediate feedback: Open houses can provide sellers and their agents with immediate feedback about the home, which can be used to make adjustments to the listing price or presentation.

Huge Price Reduction on 1904 Denver House

However, it's also important to note that open houses come with some downsides:

1. Security concerns: Open houses can potentially attract people with ill intentions, leading to theft or vandalism. In 20 years, however, I haven’t had a single seller tell me something was missing after an open house, although I’ve heard or read about such incidents.

2. Lookie loos: Many people who attend open houses may be neighbors, curious browsers, or individuals who are not serious about or ready to purchase a property. I welcome them, because they just might tell others about the listing.

3. Low success rate: Despite the visibility open houses can provide, the percentage of homes sold directly through

an open house is low compared to other methods of marketing a home, such as online listings or private showings.

Lastly, there’s what I call the laziness factor. It takes effort to hold an open house, and some agents don’t want to make the effort. And they justify not making that effort by saying that open houses don’t sell homes, they just are a means for agents to get buyer and seller leads.

Open houses are a little like floor duty. We ask our broker associates to sign up for floor duty, even though it can be as unproductive as an open house. My approach is to think of it as work time. I take my laptop and get a lot of work done, so really it’s not a waste of time, even if no buyers show up.

Natural Disasters Are Causing Insurers to Quit Areas

There are more and more reports, such as a Washington Post article on May 31st, of insurance companies refusing to renew home insurance policies or write new policies in areas which have suffered devastating losses such as from forest fires or severe weather events.

The headline of that WaPo article was, “Climate Shocks Are Making Parts of America Uninsurable. It Just Got Worse.” The

subhead read, “The largest insurer in California said it would stop offering new coverage. It’s part of a broader trend of companies pulling back from dangerous area.”

The inability to insure a property makes it harder to sell the property and therefore decrease its selling price. I have read reports of Californians who want to sell their home and move here, but they can’t sell their home because it can’t be insured.

$898,000

This historic home was listed less than a month ago for $995,000, a price that I knew was supported by comparable sales. That generated few showings and no offers, so the sellers agreed to this price reduction of almost $100,000. Now it’s a steal! You’ll love the updates to this 3-BR home at 1240 N. Downing St., a short walk from Cheesman Park in Denver’s historic Capitol Hill. I love this neighborhood. I went to kindergarten at nearby Dora Moore elementary school. If you’re a buyer who likes homes with “character,” let me show you this home! My narrated video tour will give you a taste of it and inspire you to request a showing.

MUTTON BUSTIN’

While mutton busting can be competitive at rodeos and other events, at Bu alo Bill Days, it’s just for fun. e riders aren’t timed or judged. Bush said it’s about allowing children to try something new and have fun.

“ ey’re all 10’s to me, because (they) had the courage to come out and try it,” Bush said of the children’s e orts. “ … I enjoy watching the kids have a good time, putting on a show, and seeing their smiles.”

A few riders like Collin Romero, 7, and Case Coslet, 4, had done mutton busting before, either in Golden or elsewhere. And some riders like Astrid Wallat — who turned 7 over the weekend — were new to the event.

“It was a good ride,” Astrid said. “I wouldn’t say it was great, though.”

Astrid and her family were new to Bu alo Bill Days overall, as they moved to Golden recently. ey watched the parade and walked around the festival the previous day, and after Mutton Bustin’, they planned to stop by the bouncy houses and other children’s activities.

Parents Christine Fitzgerald and Matt Wallat said Bu alo Bill Days felt like “quintessential Golden” with a fun “Western experience.” As for Mutton Bustin’ speci cally, they thought it was a fun tradition and hoped to see it continue.

e Coslet family, who live in Elizabeth, visited the festival for the rst time last year.

avored tobacco bans, according to Golden. e councilors hoped Golden would set an example for other jurisdictions.

However, dozens of people at the July 25 public hearing opposed the ban, saying it’d cause Golden’s three vape shops to go out of business. It’d also similarly hurt convenience stores, as the owners said customers will just buy the same products in unincorporated Je co. ey recommended the city implement greater restrictions rather than an outright ban, asking councilors to take a “scalpel” approach rather than a “sledgehammer” one.

Several proprietors shared how they immigrated to the United States and used their life savings to buy their stores. ey believed the ban would bankrupt them and crush their hopes of living the American Dream.

On the other side, though, dozens of people also spoke in favor of the ban, with one person providing 300 postcards signed by Golden High School students.

Students, parents and school sta members shared how rampant vaping is in local schools, and how easy it is for students to become addicted. Local and national health organizations also shared the nancial and health impacts of lifelong nicotine addiction and urged City Council to protect local youth and others from these highly addictive products.

Ultimately, the councilors believed the ban was consistent with the city’s values, and set a Jan. 1, 2024 implementation date to give retailers time to adjust. ey also called on Je co to pursue a countywide ban.

“We’re trying to alleviate this addiction and this crisis,” Councilor Bill Fisher said. “We’re focused on what the city can contribute to this

After Refacing

e ort.”

Community comments

Earlier this summer, the councilors directed city sta to start drafting the ordinance after a study session with Je co Public Health, City Manager Scott Vargo explained.

During both the study session and the July 25 public hearing, Jeffco Public Health sta shared how more than 80% of youth who’ve ever used tobacco products started with avored ones.

While banning these products in Golden wouldn’t be a silver bullet, Je co Public Health sta said it’d be an important piece of a comprehensive strategy to reduce tobacco’s harmful e ects on youth and other people in the community.

ose who opposed the ban emphasized using strict age verication and other restrictions to ensure young people aren’t accessing tobacco products illegally. However, they also didn’t want to take away any adults’ rights to access them.

Several said they’ve used vaping

to quit smoking, and noted that the ban would impact all avored tobacco products — like avored cigars, cigarettes and dip — not just vaping products.

Plus, as several local proprietors pointed out, most young people aren’t purchasing their vaping products at local stores. ey’re gaining access to them through friends or adults, or illegally buying them online, according to Je co Public Health statistics.

Enacting a citywide ban on avored tobacco products wouldn’t be e ective, they argued, as young people already have other means to access them. So, all it would do is hurt Golden businesses and send local customers down the street to unincorporated Je co, they continued.

“ is is important for our state, our city to generate this revenue responsibly,” Circle K representative Chris Everson said, “and we can do that if you work with us. … Rework what you’re saying to help us stay in business.”

Several physicians and health

organization representatives urged City Council to enact the ban, emphasizing how they know it wouldn’t be an easy decision, but it’d be necessary the larger ght against nicotine addiction.

A Golden High School sta member and a bilingual interpreter for the school district described how tempting these products are for young people and how hungry they are for social interaction after the pandemic. Students discard their products in school bathrooms and under the bleachers, and if they are caught and disciplined, some parents have a very resigned attitude about it.

Harper Pagnozzi, an eighth-grader at Bell Middle School, urged City Council to enact the ban, saying, “You have the chance to stand up for me and hundreds of other kids at my school. … Tell the vape industry that the future of (Golden’s) kids is not for sale.”

Council’s decision

e councilors seemed sympathetic to the businesses and employees impacted by the ban, and set a ve-month timeline for them to handle their inventories and adjust to the new normal.

Weinberg hoped those impacted would nd resources to help them “innovate and create a new business model that doesn’t rely on avored nicotine,” adding that she doesn’t want the employees to be without jobs or the proprietors to go bankrupt.

Ultimately, though, they emphasized Goldenites’ health, especially preventing young people from becoming addicted to nicotine. With Councilor JJ Trout absent at the meeting, the six councilors present voted unanimously to approve the ordinance enacting the ban.

“We will survive as a city without the tax dollars from nicotine products,” Councilor Rob Reed said. “ … I’m hoping that ... we’d be starting a conversation statewide — that if the state won’t do it, the municipalities will.”

Golden approves photo radar enforcement, lowering residential speed limits

GPD’s photo radar van will be ready by September

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Golden streets will hopefully become a little safer for everyone, as the City Council has passed two tra c safety-focused ordinances.

e rst, called “20 is Plenty,” lowers the default speed limit on residential streets from 25 mph to 20 mph. e goal is to reduce the number and severity of accidents, and it’ll go into e ect in the coming days, city sta said.

e second allows the Golden Police Department to use a photo radar van for speed enforcement around the city.

While GPD had hoped to introduce its van in time for Back-toSchool season, Chief Joe Harvey con rmed it won’t be ready until late August or early September.

e van, which will cost about $86,000 a year, has been built. However, Harvey said the vendor is still working on the software that processes the citations and warnings.

At the July 25 City Council meeting, Harvey described how the van can be stationed in residential areas, school zones, construction zones, and roadways adjacent to a park.

It can also be used in “a corridor,” which is a specially designated street or area of interest. Golden hasn’t given any areas this designation yet, but it could in future, he said.

Once GPD has positioned the van, it will post signage 300 feet away informing drivers that photo enforcement is in e ect. e van will then take photos of any vehicle going over the speed limit. Harvey said those speeding by 10 mph or less will only receive a warning, and any speeding by 11 mph or more will receive a citation.

Harvey said citations will be mailed to the vehicle’s registered owner, who can challenge it in municipal court. e nes are $40, but can be doubled to $80 in school zones. Like a parking citation, there are no points associated against a driver’s license, and the citation isn’t reported to the state.

Harvey has said GPD will rotate the photo radar van around the city to enforce in areas that receive a lot of speeding complaints. He’s also emphasized school zone safety, saying it’ll be in Golden’s school zones frequently.

20 is Plenty

Along with photo radar enforcement, City Council also passed its “20 is Plenty” ordinance, which it’s been discussing since last summer.

Other cities like Denver and Boulder have implemented similar policies to help prevent the number of and the severity of tra c accidents.

Councilor Don Cameron has described how bodily damage sustained from a 30-mph collision is like falling from a three-story building. For a 20-mph collision, it’s closer to a 12-foot fall.

Councilors, sta , and Mobility and Transportation Advisory Board members have supported lowering the default speed limits. Over the last year, the city enacted pilot programs along Lookout Mountain Road, Peery Parkway, and South Ford Street.

City Engineer Joseph Puhr has said there’d be minimal cost to implement it between crew time and repurposing city signs. Some streets or sections of streets will see lowered speed limits.

City Manager Scott Vargo conrmed it’ll be “rolled out neighborhood by neighborhood” with new signage in place to inform motorists of the change.

“(It) won’t be enforced in any given locatino until the rollout and signage e ort has taken place to adequately inform drivers of the change,” he said.

Brown and Cameron were happy to see “20 is Plenty” come to fruition after a year of discussion and data-gathering. Cameron commended people in his ward who pushed for this behind the scenes, saying, “ is is good for all users.”

Autism centers are leaving Colorado, landing kids on waitlists

BY JENNIFER BROWN THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado has lost at least nine agencies that provide therapy for children with autism in the past year and a half, leaving hundreds of families without care and lling up waitlists across the state.  erapy providers say the reimbursement rates they receive from the Colorado Medicaid program are too low to keep their doors open, especially after many state residents became eligible for the federal-state insurance program during the pandemic.

At the same time, Colorado is facing a health worker shortage and autism therapy agencies say they are struggling to pay workers enough to keep them.

“ e impact has now reached a dire state,” said Ken Winn, president of Colorado Association for Behavioral Analysis, a nonpro t member organization. “Providers are leaving the state in droves.”

One of the latest to close Colorado operations is JumpStart Autism Center, which shut down in May. e center had more than 40 clients

who attended its daylong behavioral health program in Englewood that focused on helping nonverbal children learn to communicate and control aggressive behaviors. e small business lost $700,000 in 2021 and $250,000 in 2022, said CEO and founder Brian Lopez, a neurodevel-

opmental psychologist.

About 70% of JumpStart’s clients were on Medicaid, while 30% had private insurance that reimbursed more for services. ose percentages ipped during the pandemic, when tens of thousands more Coloradans became eligible for Medicaid during

the public health emergency.  e center lost $5 per hour for every client on Medicaid, Lopez said. e state’s reimbursement rates have not kept up with the cost of operations, including salaries and its lease, he said.

“As a small-business owner, with my lease up in June 2023, I could not foresee taking out another ve-toseven-year lease and putting $2 million-$3 million in when I knew the numbers weren’t going to work,” Lopez said. ”It felt like it was too much of a personal jeopardy to do it.”

Lopze started JumpStart in New Mexico and opened a Colorado o ce in 2016. Medicaid reimbursement rates are high enough in New Mexico that the center is able to continue operations there, even with about 75% of its clients on the government insurance program, Lopez said.

New Mexico reimburses the center for training parents, while Colorado does not. Parent training is necessary, therapists said, so children who’ve learned how to communicate with their therapists can use the

WAITLIST

same methods at home. A child with autism who has a headache might repeatedly hit their head, for example. But with behavioral therapy, they might learn to point to a picture of someone in pain.

Colorado also limits therapists to about two hours to assess a child’s needs before setting up a behavioral therapy road map, though the industry standard is eight, therapists said. New Mexico’s Medicaid program allows eight hours, giving therapists time to gure out how to set up a comprehensive program. A child who is not using the toilet at age 7, for example, would see a urologist to make sure “we aren’t treating medical issues with behavioral interventions,” Lopez said.

A spate of recent closures also included Hopebridge, a national company that had several locations in Colorado, including in Denver, Fort Collins, Greeley and Colorado Springs. Another national company, Kadiant, left last year.

Colorado Medicaid used to fund services for children with autism through a “waiver” program, a comprehensive set of services for speci c groups of people who must qualify and often wait for a spot in the capped program. Colorado has various waiver programs for children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, for example, including some with 24/7 in-home services.

But the autism waiver program was capped at just 75 people.

In 2017, the federal government ordered Colorado to end the waiver program and instead add bene ts for children with autism to its Medicaid program. e state created a handful of billing codes that allowed providers to get reimbursed for pediatric behavioral health therapy for children with autism.

ose rates have not been updated since then, although the legislature has approved across-the-board rate increases for Medicaid providers, including 3% this year.

You don’t have to live with back pain. Get back to the life you love.

And the pediatric behavioral therapy rates are under review now.

A state group called the Medicaid Provider Rate Review Advisory Committee, which makes rate change recommendations to the legislature, decided in late July to recommend an increase that would bring Colorado rates in line with 10 comparison states. e group also plans to recommend that the Medicaid division begin covering additional bene ts, such as parent training.

e committee will submit its recommendations to the legislature’s Joint Budget Committee in the fall. Any approved changes would not take e ect until next July.

A 2022 state law required the committee to review rate changes for each type of provider category every three years instead of the previous requirement of every ve years. e change was part of a greater e ort to adapt more quickly to in ation and workforce shortages, Medicaid o cials said.

In the past ve years, the number of children qualifying for Medicaid’s pediatric behavioral health bene t has jumped dramatically — and so has the cost.

e number of Colorado children receiving those bene ts climbed 200%, to 5,600 children last year from 2,437 children ve years ago. e annual cost per child rose to $3,400 from $1,900. And the total program cost is up 400%, now $126 million compared with $28 million ve years ago.

According to the Medicaid division’s analysis, which con icts with autism therapy providers’ data, Colorado’s reimbursement rates are

93% of what other states are paying. Providers accused the department of cherry-picking states for comparison purposes that made Colorado look better.

Medicaid o cials said autism therapists, along with many other medical and mental health providers, are struggling now because of a huge swing in the wage market.

“Health care workers have really been through a tough time over the last several years and we’ve had individuals leave the workforce,” Kim Bimestefer, executive director of the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing, which includes the Medicaid division, told e Sun. “ e wage rates for health care workers have gone up in an unprecedented way and that’s sometimes putting pressure on organizations who are passionately trying to provide care to their customers, their patients.”

Bimestefer pointed toward $26 million in recent investments by the legislature and Gov. Jared Polis to bolster the health care workforce, including free college and retention programs for industries including nursing, EMTs, and dental and pharmacy technicians.

Complaints that Medicaid provider rates are too low are a recurring dialogue in Colorado, extending across various rate categories from primary care to mental health. e Medicaid division also has faced harsh, public criticism in the past year over delays in approving prior authorization requests for children with disabilities.

Bimestefer said concerns about rates grow louder when the rate review committee is about to meet.

“You’ll see the voices of various

stakeholders get louder because this is their time to voice their concerns and to in uence policy,” she said.

“ e department is listening. We’re listening to providers. We’re listening to families. We’re looking at other states.”

Autism therapy providers have seen their operational costs increase 42% since 2019, while rates have gone up just 7.4%, according to their analysis.

“ is has forced small, local business owners like myself to cut our own pay or skip our own payroll as well as cut much-needed expenses that impact the quality of services we deliver,” said Rebecca Urbano Powell, executive director of Seven Dimensions Behavioral Health in Evergreen.

erapists met with Medicaid ofcials in December 2022 and again in February, seeking to stave o the closures. ey also met with the legislature’s Joint Budget Committee. “Because of how slow this process has been with (the Medicaid department), providers are going further into debt,” Powell said.

Winn, who is also founder of Advanced Behavioral Resources, said his nonpro t is concerned about how the therapy providers who stay open in Colorado will take on the estimated 1,000 children with autism whose autism centers have closed. e state is down to 136 providers billing Medicaid for pediatric behavioral therapy for kids with autism, a number that is dropping, according to the providers’ analysis.

“For years, this issue has been festering,” Winn said. “We have been having conversations with (the Medicaid department) and no one seems to be able to x the issue.

“ ey are hands down the most vulnerable Coloradans, who can’t speak for themselves. ey need a voice.”

I always want to nd my own angle on the story and usually that just kind of pops into my head right away. As I’m checking out the details, something clicks and I get an idea and go with it.

But once in a while, either nothing immediately jumps out, or so many di erent angles come to mind that I don’t know exactly where to begin.

at’s what happened this week, but there are also several things I needed to consider when putting a description of it into the context of a published newspaper column rather than just a blurb on an information website that’s probably going to be o the radar of people looking for copyright or trademark violations.

OK, let’s dive right in here. Our wonderful Miners Alley Playhouse has a new show about to open on Aug. 11. It’s called “Avenue Q: e Musical.” is should be a really great

AVENUE FLASHES

show since it has won the “triple crown” of Tony Awards, Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book.

e theater’s description of it is, “ e laugh-out-loud musical tells the timeless story of a recent college grad named Princeton, who moves into a shabby New York apartment all the way out on Avenue Q. He soon discovers that, although the residents seem nice, it’s clear that this is not your ordinary neighborhood. Together, Princeton and his new-found friends struggle to nd jobs, dates and their ever-elusive purpose in life.”

So far, so good, right? Now here’s where it starts to go o the rails a bit. It’s a puppet show. Not just that, it’s an adult puppet show. Rated “R” for adult language and full-frontal pup-

pet nudity. Yes, you read that right. Now, here’s where my mind starts to go wandering o into a bizarre option for what angle to approach this with…I’m imagining somebody being approached to build the puppets. “OK, Bob, so what we need are fully anatomically correct gures complete with…” Yeah, now you are starting to see why it took a while just to gure out how I was going to spin this one. e next thing that came to my mind was just how many of these Tony Award winning musicals are written by people in New York and are set in places that they all understand, but the rest of us just kind of have to imagine. e phrase “all the way out on Avenue Q” is what I’m talking about here. All the way out where? It’s set in the city of New York. How far out could it be? Again, my mind is wandering.

Meanwhile, back to the story. So, after doing a bit more of a deep dive into this thing, I gured out that it’s kind of an adult parody of that famous educational television show

Money doesn’t grow on trees

Government cannot do everything. at sentence is a popular truism on the political right. It is correct for a very practical reason. e government does not have an endless supply of money. Money for government projects does eventually dry up once those funds are exhausted. Budgets have limits. Of course, there are some who would like for the government to do more with more money from the public. But if taxes are raised to sky-high levels, then some will feel disincentivized to earn money. at ultimately serves no end because tax revenues would then dry up. Tax money does not grow on trees, it is generated by the work and sweat that citizens toil under to provide for themselves.

When I started to write this series of opinion pieces on the budget I did it with the intention of sharing something that Je erson County and

for kids that features puppets spelled with an “m” of things like a frog, a pig and one that really likes cookies. So, it has people interacting with the puppets as though they were real people on a set that looks like a typical city block with apartment buildings. Did I dance around that copyrighted name enough? Do I need to throw in the phrase “Open Sesame” to give you another clue? Yeah, that show. e bottom line here is that it’s going to be a really funny production using a familiar format to discuss a lot of adult issues with a catchy musical score that has delighted audiences everywhere. It’s unique, to say the least, and another example of how our Miners Alley Playhouse goes above and beyond to bring new, fresh and cutting-edge theater to our town of Golden.

Colorado does that has a large impact on your lives as citizens. I could have written much more than I have. Zerobased budgeting is a particular pet peeve of mine because it forces unnecessary and unwarranted governmental expenditures to occur because revenues and expenditures must always be equal. I wanted to share how unfunded mandates from both the federal and state government crowd out the budgetary choices that should only belong to our elected o cials here in Je erson County and Colorado.

Budgets are ultimately a series of choices made by the government of a locale as to how to spend tax revenue. e inputs into how a budget is crafted are ultimately more complex than many realize. Writing about the state budget matters in the further education of the general public and how both they and elected o cials handle the budgetary choices made in both the state and county level.

Take me out to the ball game

Ilove baseball. I have loved it since my Dad introduced the sport to me as a little kid. One of the proudest moments of my young life was making my very large high school’s baseball team. I remember the joy of telling my No. 1 fan, my dad, “I made the team.” I grew up near Cincinnati, so I experienced both disappointment during the Red’s struggling years and the overwhelming joy the “Big Red Machine” brought to their fans. Beating the hated Yankees in four in the 76 World Series was beyond great.

In the last few years, baseball has dropped in fan enthusiasm. Some question its title as the “national pastime.” e games are too long and some who are not familiar with all baseball’s nuances say games can be boring. But the game has reformed itself. It added time clocks like basketball’s shot clock. Pitchers have 15 seconds to throw the ball when no one is on base and 20 seconds when men are on base. Batters must be in the batter’s box with eight seconds on the clock. is strict timing has knocked 36 minutes o the average game time.

at’s not all. e bases have been made 3 sq. inches larger, therefore they are slightly closer to each other. Big deal, you say. It is a big deal as now 80% of all base stealing is successful. is year’s base stealing is on target to be the highest ever. It’s an attempt to bring back a game like

those days of Jackie Robinson and Maury Wills. Teams are no longer allowed to put more than two in elders on one side of second base. at change has allowed more hits and batting averages are up a whopping 16 points. More action and more excitement have brought fans back and attendance is up 5% so far this season. Good job, baseball. But more work needs to be done. Consider the famous quote in the movie/book “Moneyball.” “ ere are rich teams and poor teams, it’s not a fair game.”   is is not because of ticket sales, but rather the TV and radio income generated by large markets over small markets. e Rockies attendance in a poor year was just under 1.6 million fans while the New York Yankees drew 2.1 million. What really makes the di erence is the mega millions large market teams draw from TV and radio revenues. Last year the Yankees made $143 million from their media deal while the Rockies made just about $20 million. As a result, the Rockies $178 million player payroll, which was about in the middle among all teams, was barely half the NY Mets $348 million payroll. More money means a team can a ord to keep the

superstars whose competitive value is high like Nolan Arenado.   e Rockies lost him as he signed a $260 million deal. He went to St. Louis which has a smaller population than Denver, but the Cardinals recently signed a $1 billion media deal because of the massive size of their fan network.

Major League Baseball is the only major sport without a salary cap. Football, basketball and hockey all restrict the amount teams can spend on player salaries. Baseball has a provision to which owners agreed to ne teams whose total salaries are above the year’s agreed upon limit. e big markets with lots of cash just overspend and pay the luxury tax, which was $200 million last year. If my discussion of salary caps and such makes it seem that baseball is all about money, that’s not my

intent. It may be this way to the owners, but to the fans and players, it is about the thrill of winning. Recently the lowly Rockies came from behind twice in the same game to defeat the mighty Yankees. ey won two of three here in Denver in front of sellout crowds. e celebration on the eld and in the stands looked like the Rockies had just won the world series. Maybe they will someday, but even if they don’t, I will continue to root, root, root for the home team.

ADenver-based nonpro t music education organization is helping local rising stars showcase and enhance their musical talents, record music and learn podcasting for free.

Youth on Record, founded by local musician community organizer Flobots in 2008 works with people aged 14 to 24.

“Flotbots’ mission was to bring music to young people to improve academic success and youth outreach, and it grew into what is now known as Youth on Record,” said Haley Witt, a guitar musician and singer-songwriter who manages Youth on Record.

Youth on Record recently rocked at its ninth annual block party in support of youth in music with over 20 live music performances, teen activities and vendors at its o ce location near downtown Denver.

“We have a state-of-the-art recording studio soundboard and all sorts of instruments,” Witt said. “So young people can drop into our programs and learn about mixing, mastering songs and learn about songwriting and instrumentation.”

After school programs

e Youth on Record runs afterschool, out-of-school and in-school programming with Denver Public Schools and Aurora Public Schools middle and high schools.

“We partner with the schools to teach four-credit classes, and we hire local professional artists to teach those classes,” Witt said. “Our Youth on Record teaching artists come to the schools, and the young people are able to learn from them. It’s one way that you nd our Youth on Record programs through the schools.”

Youth on Record also has afterschool programs at the Youth on Record media studio space called the open lab on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays and is available to young people from 14 to 24 years old.

“It’s self-guided so that they can explore their interests. ey come into the space with a passion for music, making songwriting production, and we teach them the skill set they need to accomplish the projects they’re passionate about,” Witt said.

Witt said Youth on Record also o er an internship and fellowship program and a fellowship program, both of which are paid programs by donors.

“Youth on Record is a nonpro t organization so donors fund our program,” Witt said.

Witt said Youth on Record has had a lot of talented program graduates.

Baily Elora from Hudson/ Keenesburg Colorado, featured in the Fort Lupton Press, went through the program and signed on with Sony Music Subsidiary e Orchard.

“We are proud of all of our program graduates and all of the various directions that they’re headed, it’s really important to us to connect with young people with economic opportunities, “ Witt said.

Witt said Youth on Records is a pillar of academic success, economic opportunity and community activation.

“Our economic opportunity pillar, it’s really important to us to connect young people to community careers and job opportunities,” Witt said.

Witt said they have young people who play gigs in the community and support booking those gigs and paid opportunities for young people to perform.

Youth on Record also places young people into community internships and fellowships.

“Our fellows will have the opportunity to have community internships with local partners as well. It’s important to us to connect young people to jobs in the industry and to connect them to opportunities in creative elds and show them that it’s possible,” Witt said.

ere also is an open mic every rst Friday, and it is open to the public, where the youth perform and gain experience in combination with all the First Fridays and art walks across the city, speci cally in collaboration with the Santa Fe Art Walk.

“ at’s a program run by our fellows and learn how to put together a music festival, run it, secure porta potties and design posters for the festival and how it ties in economic opportunity. e block party is a youth-led program,” Witt said.

Learning about podcasting

David Ladon, Youth on Record audio arts innovation manager, teaches youth how to do podcast interviews. Ladon has been teaching podcasting for nine years and has worked with Youth on Record for three in a half years.

“We have a podcast show that comes out monthly called ‘Generation Collaboration’ that we produce in collaboration with Colorado young leaders,” Ladon said, adding that they just nished season one and that the podcast airs on KGNU.

ARTISTS

“We have another monthly show called ‘Youth on Rewind,’ which is a segment-based show and the tagline podcast amplifying young people’s voices, stories and ideas,” Ladon said.

Ladon said the podcast features segments produced by interns, peer navigators and fellows, covering whatever interests them.

“Our third show is called ‘Underground of the Showcase’ as

the official podcast of the underground music showcase, which Youth and Record helps put on.”

The podcast is hosted and produced by youth interns from 16 to 24 years old.

Ladon said his love for the application of podcast work expanded beyond media production or journalism.

“It gets to the root of socialemotional learning and developing yourself because you’re learning to exercise your voice and get to practice hearing your voice, which is not something we’re all comfortable with,” Ladon said.

Mobile Studio

Oren Bregman, executive director of the Mobile Studio nonprofit music outreach program has partnered with Youth on Record.

Bregman’s program brings the mobile studio to Denver, Green Valley and Montebello pathway schools in Aurora.

“We focused on singing, rapping, and poetry so we bring our equipment and expertise so students can create music to express themselves and share it online with their family and friends,” Bregman said.

Bregman said Youth on Records helped Mobile Studio get their

first grant and gave them some instruments.

“We are happy to be part of the family,” Bregman said.

Witt said the young people the programs serve are incredibly talented. “It blows me away to see the ways that they’re able to cultivate their skills, and it’s inspiring to watch and build strong mentorship relationships with our staff and to feel connected to a sense of community through our programs,” she said.

State farm bill lauded for SNAP program fixes

BY ERIC GALATAS PUBLIC NEWS SERVICE

Colorado is the eighth mostimproved state at ensuring SNAP food assistance reaches its most vulnerable residents, according to new rankings from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Anya Rose, public policy manager for Hunger Free Colorado, said the improvements are largely due to more meaningful bene t levels and cuts to red tape during the pandemic, along with strong outreach work.

She hopes Congress will take such key factors into account as it considers the Farm Bill, which includes the program formerly known as food stamps.

“We’re hoping that some of these lessons, of what works for making sure that SNAP has the best impact it can, will be taken up in the Farm Bill,” Rose explained. “To ensure SNAP can feed people as best it can and is accessible to people.”

Hunger Free Colorado works with community partners across the state to get more people who qualify for food assistance enrolled. But after pre-pandemic SNAP work reporting requirements were reinstated, at least half

a million Americans are expected to lose food assistance, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. An additional 750,000 are at risk after the debt-ceiling negotiations raised the age cap for

reporting requirements to 55.

e majority of SNAP participants are children and people with disabilities, and Rose pointed out most people who can work, do. She added having to ll out

paperwork documenting at least 20 hours of work or training activities per week does nothing to help people nd or maintain employment, it just makes the program more costly to administer.

“Taking away someone’s food does not make it easier to hold down a job, or go to that job interview,” Rose contended. “It just creates more red tape for people to access the basic resources that they need.”

In 2017, SNAP added more than $700 million to local Colorado economies, with an overall economic impact of $1.25 billion, but the state loses more than $230 million each year in grocery sales by not having all eligible residents enrolled. Rose noted back in 2019, just 59% of Coloradans eligible for SNAP got assistance.

“With the 2021 numbers, we’ve jumped up to 73%,” Rose acknowledged. “ at is a great improvement. But there are still 27% of our lowest-income Coloradans not accessing the program, so there is still a lot of room for us to continue this growth.”

For-profit college students getting financial help

Biden administration announces $130 million loan forgiveness for Colorado College America students

BY JASON GONZALES CHALKBEAT COLORADO

About 7,400 students who attended the for-pro t CollegeAmerica in Colorado from 2006 to 2020 will automatically get $130 million in student debt forgiven after the U.S. Department of Education found the college made widespread misrepresentations.

CollegeAmerica students will be noti ed in August that their federal student loan balance has been wiped clean. ey also will be reimbursed for the amount they paid on those loans.

e education department used evidence provided by Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser in its forgiveness decision, nding parent-company Center for Excellence in Higher Education gave false information about the salaries and employment rates of its graduates, the programs it o ered, and the terms of a private loan product it o ered.

“CollegeAmerica, they took advantage of people and preyed on vulnerable individuals,” Weiser said during a July news conference with the federal education department.

“ ey had tens of thousands of TV commercials, radio, mailers, all of which promoted starting salaries or median starting salary that they claimed their degrees would give people access to. at was fundamentally untrue.”

Federal Student Aid Chief Operating O cer Richard Cordray credited Weiser’s o ce for its work exposing issues with College America.

e Colorado attorney general’s o ce started investigating the forpro t in 2012, with a nal judgment in favor of the state in 2020.

Cordray said issues included CollegeAmerica in ating job placement rates from 40% to 70%. e college also advertised higher salaries for its graduates, sometimes by twice as much.

“Nothing can replace the time

these students spent, the years that have passed, and their trust that is broken,” Corduroy said. “What we can do, we will do, to try to make things right.”

e department’s actions discharge federal loans for the 7,400 students. Private loans, however, are not eligible for forgiveness.

e Biden-Harris Administration has forgiven $14.7 billion in relief for 1.1 million borrowers nationally whose colleges took advantage of them or closed, according to a news release.

Students at now-closed Corinthian Colleges, ITT Technical Institute, and Westwood College also have received loan relief.

Colorado hands out grants aimed at college opportunities, workforce training for in-demand jobs

BY SARA MARTIN CHALKBEAT COLORADO

Colorado is investing a chunk of its federal relief money in the future of students to boost the job economy.

e Polis administration announced in June that the state would award $27 million to 46 groups across the state in a rst round of funding to support workforce training in local urban, suburban and rural economies via the Opportunity Now Colorado grant program. Grants range from $50,000 to $7 million.

e grants aim to make college more accessible for high school students, open educational opportunities for older adults who never attended or nished college, and “are intended to help connect more Coloradans with in-demand, high-wage occupations,” according to the governor’s o ce. It also will fund healthcare education programs in order to address the healthcare worker shortage that has been a persistent problem throughout the pandemic.

“ is is designed to help ll the workforce gap and get people the skills they need for positions that are available and ready to start today and tomorrow — it will help power economy and help Colorado shine in terms of workforce readiness,” said Gov. Jared Polis in an interview with Chalkbeat Colorado.

Eve Lieberman, the executive director of the O ce of Economic Development and International Trade, said, “Increasingly we were hearing from businesses that they want to be partnering with edu-

cational institutions and creating these innovative models. at’s exactly what we’re doing here is forming grant opportunities to allow for that innovation, those partnerships, and to have industry help co-create that talent.”

In 2021, Colorado lawmakers passed legislation that created the Student Success and Workforce Revitalization Task Force Report to determine how to spend federal pandemic relief money.

e task force’s main suggestion was to create a statewide grant program for innovative ideas that connect community groups, colleges, and employers. e state is now

using $85 million of the one-time federal money on the grants.

St. Vrain Valley Schools is using its $7 million grant to partner with multiple organizations and school districts, including Estes Park R-3, Weld RE-3J, and Adams 12 Five Star Schools, to further develop its early childhood/K-12 education, technology, and advanced manufacturing workforce pathway programs.

St. Vrain currently partners with CU Denver in a program for high school juniors and seniors to take dual education enrollment courses that can transfer to CU Denver after graduation. With the new

funds, CU Denver will develop classes for adult working professionals and high school students to access college coursework and earn additional credits. e credits will be free to students and district professionals.

“Being able to remove so many nancial barriers, it gives students a real strong feeling of success and our older working professionals, where many of them haven’t been in school for a number of years, the

St. Vrain Valley Schools currently host summer STEM camps where students can engage hands-on in robotics, cybersecurity, coding, and AI technology at the district’s Innovation Center. The Opportunity Now Colorado Grants will help create and further expand opportunities for students to participate in.

State preschool program leaves some unsure

A preschool in Greeley that has shepherded countless kids through the rst years of their education over the past 21 years may welcome its last class of 4-year-olds next month, eyeing an uncertain future as it dives into the state’s newly expanded preschool program.

Nearby, a di erent preschool that caters to mostly children of lowincome families has only been able to ll a quarter of its classrooms for the start of the school year and is weighing its options — which could include closing its doors. Preschools across Colorado are sprinting to make nal preparations for the start of the state’s expanded preschool program, known as universal preschool. And with less than a month until the rst day of school, many question whether they’ll have enough state funding to stay open. at question has bubbled up in the past month, after Colorado’s new Department of Early Childhood changed the way it will calculate how much funding preschool providers will receive during their rst few months of the program.

Instead of paying a provider for the number of students it has the capacity to educate, as originally promised, the department will now dole out funding based on the number of students enrolled. It might seem like a subtle shift, but to preschool providers who already

has 25 preschool sites across Weld County, six of which will participate in Colorado’s expanded preschool program. “ is is a system that providers have been hesitant to jump into because they haven’t gotten clear answers from the departments on how this is all going to go down.”

e Early Childhood department, which has a $322 million budget for its inaugural year of the expanded preschool program, previously pledged to compensate preschools participating in universal preschool based on the number of 4-year-olds they had room to educate, regardless of whether they lled all their seats. at’s a much more predictable and reliable method of funding, providers say.

During a Jan. 12 meeting among members of the department’s Rules Advisory Council, M. Michael Cooke — then a universal preschool representative from Gov. Jared Polis’ o ce — said that through monthly state payment to providers from August through October, those providers would receive a dollar amount based on their capacity, regardless of whether providers could ll all their seats. en in November, she added, the department would reassess how many kids had actually enrolled in provider programs and adjust payments based on those numbers.

A month before universal preschool starts, Colorado is backpedaling on a major funding promise

UNSURE

Bright, who also serves as board president of the Early Childhood Education Association of Colorado, sees the decision to change funding as something of a baitand-switch after the Early Childhood department simply couldn’t afford to pay all participating providers for the surplus of preschool slots.

“They realized they ran out of money based on the promise they made, and now providers are left carrying the load,” said Bright, who typically keeps his business afloat with no more than two weeks of operating cash in the bank at any one time.

Without upfront payment from the state for all kids who enroll in universal preschool at his centers, Bright said he won’t have the funds to pay his staff.

Under the revised funding plan, which Shuler said was communicated to providers by June 27, the state assessed the number of kids enrolled in programs on July 9. Programs will receive funding Aug. 1 based on that count of kids. However, the latest round of matching preschoolers with specific programs — so far it has facilitated four sets of matching — was completed later in July. That means providers could end up with preschoolers on the first day of classes who they haven’t been paid to educate. They won’t receive funding for those students until the next payment from the state, scheduled for Sept. 8.

Each month from August through May, Shuler said, providers will receive a payment determined by the number of students enrolled in their program on the 15th of the previous month. The sum will be adjusted each month so that the amount given to providers accounts for any enrollment swings and reflects the number of students in their

classrooms.

That leaves providers like Bright feeling pinched.

“It is very difficult for a provider to hire their staff, prepare their facilities for kids and then not necessarily have all of those seats full but yet have to pay payroll and have to pay the mortgage payment and have to turn the lights on and have to turn the heat and/or AC on,” Bright said. “It’s very difficult for us to do that when you’re now told late in the game that we’re only going to pay you based on enrollments and we’re going to true up your enrollments every month.”

The state is rolling out something of a financial safety net for providers so that they’re guaranteed at least the same amount of funding they received last year under the state’s previous preschool program, called the Colorado Preschool Program. At the end of the school year, the state will compare the amount paid to each provider this year under universal preschool to the amount paid to each provider last year through the Colorado Preschool Program, according to Bright. If a provider earns less in universal preschool

than the amount they earned last year through the Colorado Preschool Program, the state will pay them the difference, he said.

It’s not yet clear whether providers like Bright who own more than one preschool center — including two that participated in the Colorado Preschool Program and six slated to be part of universal preschool — will be compensated for each licensed facility, which will affect the amount of funding owed by the state.

The Early Childhood department was not able to clarify details of its plan to ensure providers receive at least as much funding this school year as they did last year.

Bright added that he can’t wait until the end of the school year for funding that is crucial to his ability to keep running his business.

The only financial path forward, he said, involves keeping kids who enroll last-minute on the sidelines until the state pays providers for them. That means, for instance, that any family who enrolls their 4-year-old from late July through mid-August will have to wait to start universal preschool until September, when Bright receives money from the state for that particular child.

The Early Childhood department doesn’t believe any preschools will have to postpone the start times for any kids, with Shuler writing in an email that “payments will be reconciled for the next month and providers will receive pay if children start earlier.”

She said the department is also confident that the first payment in August, along with the monthly payments recalculated to compensate providers for any enrollment changes, will “help support providers” and are “much more provider-friendly” than other preschool subsidy programs that have paid based on the number of kids attending their program.

Bright noted that under the Colorado Preschool Program he received funding for the entire school year starting in August with monthly payments through May, contingent on his facilities having all seats funded by the state filled with kids by Nov. 1.

He doesn’t see another option other than a delayed start for kids who enroll late.

“I would drown my company if I were to provide services that I was not paid for,” he said.

Bright and other preschools are also worried about having to shutter centers altogether.

One of the six ABC Child Development Centers Bright owns that is participating in universal preschool has 12 classrooms, only three of which are full with kids whose families have opted into universal preschool. He needs all classrooms full to stay financially

whole at the center, which mostly serves low-income families.

He expects all the classrooms to fill by November, but to keep the school open until then, he needs the upfront funding from the state. If the school stays open with empty classrooms, he’ll have to lay off teachers and will be unable to accept new students until the state pays their tuition.

Meanwhile, Melissa Lelm, director of Early Childhood University in Greeley, has enrolled only 33 students through universal preschool, far short of the 96 licensed spots in her center. The state has matched another 10 students with her facility, but though Lelm has repeatedly called and emailed those families to encourage them to accept their match, she’s been met with silence. At the same time, she has to renew her lease this year with her landlord wanting to raise her rent.

“I don’t know if we’ll be in business at the end of May of 2024,” said Lelm, who has worked in early childhood education for more than 40 years.

Lelm recently laid off four employees who are now collecting unemployment, keeping only one teacher and one teacher assistant on her staff. And as the Early Childhood department pivots to paying providers based on the number of kids enrolled, she anticipates her reserves will dwindle as she tries to cover even the smaller payroll. She’s applying for grants to help fill in the gaps and has so far collected $26,000, including from the state’s Child Care Stabilization and Workforce Sustainability Grants and a $4,000 state Capacity Building Grant that can fund necessities such as furniture and educational and health care materials.

“That money will go very quickly for payroll and rent,” Lelm said.

She might be forced to lay off her teacher assistant if enrollment continues to stagnate, but Lelm knows that having more than one trained adult in the classroom helps kids and teachers form better bonds.

Lelm wonders if she’ll be up against the same uncertainties around how many students she’ll serve and how many staff she needs each year of universal preschool — if she manages to stay open.

“I just hope it works,” she said. “I don’t know if they thought it through thoroughly enough.”

“One of the reasons that nursing shortages exist is because there’s a shortage of nursing instructors. This is due to retirements in the healthcare workforce, and could be a university or college-level nursing program not being able to admit the number of students that are applying because there are not enough qualified faculty with the credentials to instruct,” said Alexandra Hansen, CSU Pueblo’s regional development officer.

People who have experienced limited access to healthcare may find the nursing field a fulfilling career, Hansen said.

Limited access could be due to staffing shortages or “because they’re a Spanish-speaking family who have experienced going to a clinic where there are no Spanishspeaking providers,” she said.

The grant will support graduate students in becoming nurse managers, educators, and practitioners at the master’s and doctoral levels. It aims to enhance health equity in 15 counties in southern Colorado.

Aurora LPGA golf pioneer still bringing women into the game

BY BRAIDON NOURSE FOR SENTINEL COLORADO

Karen DeSantis knew early on in becoming a golf pro, the journey would take her far beyond the course.

Almost 40 years after starting down that path, she’s arrived.

“It was just something I wanted real badly,” DeSantis said. “I just loved it.”

She has the same passion now as she did when she rst picked up her own club: Grow the game and make it more accessible to any who might want to try it, especially women. DeSantis’ dedication to the game, and a welcoming and helpful demeanor to those who come to her for guidance, has long been her trademark teaching and coaching on Aurora courses.

Her love for the game started at 31. She would go out to courses with her husband, Carl DeSantis, to spend time with him while he played. She got bored watching and wanted to try it out herself. She took lessons and never looked back.

She once thought of going on tour, but money mattered, and teaching, and the stable income that comes with it was more appealing.

DeSantis started certi cation from the Ladies Professional Golf Association. In order to do that, she needed to work at least part-time at a golf course to gain experience and earn no less than an associate’s degree in a business–related eld. So she got to work.

Beginning as a part-time instructor at Springhill Golf Course

in 1980, where DeSantis teaches today, she had to work nights as a server at Red Lobster to supplement her income. All the while, she went to Pickens Technical Institute in Aurora to get her associate’s degree in management of technology.

“It was a struggle, but I was pretty young,” DeSantis said. “Teaching just became my outlet. When I was on the lesson tee, I was in my own world and my own boss.”

Helping people solve a problem with a swing or a putt was as satisfying as her own personal wins.

By 1984, she was o cially an LPGA Pro.

EXACT SAME COVERAGE UP TO HALF THE COST.

were women learning to play golf, but also about the social intricacies of golf that can often drive business connections.

Most important, though, were the friendly, casual relationships on the course that women could make with other women.

“( e social aspect) is very important,” DeSantis said. “ ere’s still to this day so many women that want to go and play with other women, but don’t have an outlet. So that’s where the Working Women’s (program) came into play. … It kind of expanded and blew up, and now there’s all kinds of ladies groups that you can join.”

While she was working toward her LPGA Pro certi cation at Meadow Hills Golf Course — where she worked for a few years between stints at Springhill — DeSantis noticed the virtual dearth of female players. Tee times were dominated by men, especially on weekends when working women had time o , too, and could theoretically take tee times of their own.

She wanted to see more women in golf, so she decided to take action.

DeSantis came up with a proposal to the then Head PGA Pro of Meadow Hills, Mickey Byrne: come up with a program encouraging women to learn the game, socialize, have fun and, ultimately, compete.

Byrne was all for it. After he and DeSantis got the OK from the City of Aurora’s manager of golf, Dennis Lyon, the Working Women’s program was up and running in 1984.

In its inaugural season, there were about 45 members. By the second season, it exploded to more than 100 members. With the boost in popularity and a novel idea, Aurora Hills Golf Course o ered their course to the group.

Today, more than 150 Working Women rotate rounds between all ve Aurora city golf courses every weekend, backed by the Colorado Women’s Golf Association.

Over time, DeSantis realized the e ect of bringing more women into golf was about much more than just the game. Many women who came to play were leaders in their industries. Some were bringing clients out to courses to play. Not only

ough female participation in golf has been growing slowly since DeSantis has been a pro, the COVID-19 pandemic is where it really began to skyrocket. e National Golf Foundation reported that in 2019, there were 5.6 million female golfers. Today, there are 6.4 million, a 15% increase in the female player base in comparison to a 2% increase in male players during that time period.

“Way unexpected,” DeSantis said. “I mean, the lessons went crazy, the rounds went crazy. Most of it was because it was one of the few sports that people could still come out (and play). … I think it introduced a lot of people back into the sport and into the sport.”

She has taught LPGA 101, a beginner’s golf lessons program for women and their families, since its inception in 2019. at’s when she began to work with Dan O’Shaughnessy, who took over as Head PGA Pro at Springhill in 2020.

O’Shaughnessy, whose main goal is to expose the game to as many people as possible, built a dedicated learning area in 2021 for DeSantis and others to teach newcomers. Even though 70-year-old DeSantis retired in 2021, O’Shaughnessy has kept the door open for her to teach on weekends, a nod to the value she brings to the course.

Plus, DeSantis doesn’t think she’ll ever stop wanting to teach.

“I would say Karen is a bit of an anomaly in that she still loves to teach after” 40 years in the business, O’Shaughnessy said. “A lot don’t. … (She’s) passionate about teaching, helping golfers, giving them the tools for starting out. She’s just really good at knowing what to give people and how much to give them, so (students) aren’t overwhelmed.”

at passion and knack for teaching is what got Liz Vonau to stick

around for a ve-lesson course from DeSantis.

Vonau had a little experience golfing as a teenager with her father, but she never got into it. Last summer, at 41, she decided to jump back in. She wanted to take up something outdoorsy, and with her father still being an avid golfer, she wanted to be able to do that with him.

One of the only ways to get better at golf is to go out and play a course, but for many new golfers, doing so can be intimidating at rst. According to Vonau, DeSantis has a air for making the learning process more comfortable.

“She really taught you the basics, but then also taught you to not be intimidated,” Vonau said. “It was just like building that con dence of (saying) if you hit well, you don’t need to hit far. (She) really makes you feel like you don’t have to be the best player, you don’t have to be the farthest hitter to go and play and have fun.”

A year after taking lessons from DeSantis, Vonau still plays with her dad every week.

Karen said her husband mentored her during her career in golf, as they traveled across the country during winters to play as she got better at the game. Her fondest memories were when she and Carl played golf in Hawaii on two occasions to celebrate anniversaries. is year will be their 40th anniversary.

DeSantis said that her proudest accomplishments were earning her LPGA Pro certi cation and becoming the rst assistant golf pro at Springhill when she moved back there from Meadow Hills in 1987.

“To have the opportunity that they gave me was just such a blessing,” DeSantis said. “I’ve never regretted it, I never regretted getting into the LPGA. I’ve been around the city so long that I don’t go somewhere where I don’t meet someone, and they tell me a story.”

Evergreen Jazz Festival celebrates 20 years

BY TEDDY JACOBSEN TJACOBSEN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

After the rst Evergreen Jazz Festival in 2001, organizers and musicians alike were not sure whether there would be a second. Now, 22 years and 19 festivals later, the event is stronger than ever.

e 20th anniversary Evergreen Jazz Festival July 28-30 hosted around 2,000 people, according to Jim Reiners, the festival’s marketing director.

e music was endless from Friday to Sunday across ve venues in town with a mix of local and national bands.

Reiners is the last of the original seven event organizers. He said attendance and nances were the most signi cant issues for the rst event.

“ e rst one was a marvelous musical event and a nancial disaster,” Reiners said.

e seven organizers decided to take 2002 o to develop a fundraising and business plan. Since then, the festival has marched on yearly, only missing one more due to the pandemic.

Festival organizers also tout the

All That Jazz

high caliber of performers who participate in the festival each year.

Reiners said that expectations started from the beginning with the founder of the event, Sterling Nelson, who died in 2020. Nelson selected which bands played each year.

Many of the musicians that performed this year had a long history with the event. Jon-Erik Kellso, trumpeter and leader of James Dapogny’s Chicago Jazz Band, said they performed at the rst festival in 2001.

“We’ve lost some of our key members and haven’t played here for nine years, but we decided to reunite for the 20th,” Kellso said.

Reiners said most jazz festivals across the country are very well traveled with some people traveling from festival to festival to hear the music. Evergreen’s festival is unique because of the town’s scenery and the venues’ intimacy.

“ ere’s a wonderful rapport that gets going between the musicians and the audience,” Reiners said.

Tuba player Bill Clark, the leader of the Queen City Jazz Band with Wende Harston, said his band performed at the second festival in 2003. Clark also lives in the Evergreen area.

“I’m really pleased to see how many local people come out to the festival each year,” Clark said. “You don’t see that in too many other places.”

Hal Smith is another musician who performed at both this year’s festival and the rst one, but with two different bands. He played the drums for Capt. John Royen’s New Orleans Rhythm this year and was with the Roadrunners in 2001.

Smith said performing in Evergreen is much di erent from most of the other locations he performs at across the country.

“Evergreen is the only place I’ve ever been where a herd of elk inter-

rupted our performance,” he said. “I guess they wanted to check out the music.”

Reiners said the festival is the perfect casual environment to meet some of the best jazz musicians in the country who have been performing for decades.

“ ese (musicians) are the real deal,” he said. “It’s so easy here to just go up and talk to them because they want to talk to you, too. I think that’s why everybody likes coming back.”

Mines’ Matocha named top scholar-athlete in D2

Senior quarterback, Orediggers start preseason camps Aug. 7

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

While Colorado School of Mines football players, coaches and fans already knew senior quarterback John Matocha was a proverbial one-in-amillion, a recent award proves he’s a literal one-in-100,000.

Matocha was recently named the best scholar-athlete in NCAA Division II, which is comprised of more than 122,000 student-athletes. He was selected as the 2022-23 College Sports Communicators Academic All-America Overall Team Member of the Year for NCAA Division II. e Magnolia, Texas-based quarterback is the rst Oredigger to receive this honor.

“I am blessed for the opportunity to be a student-athlete at the Colorado School of Mines and honored to receive this award,” Matocha said in a July 26 press release. “I am so grateful for my team and school for all their support on the eld and in the classroom. Great school, great football, and I am glad to be a part of it.”

e organization honored a scholar-athlete from each sport across NCAA Divisions I, II and III and NAIA, and then highlighted four overall athletes — one from each

division. e other three overall winners are:

• Iowa women’s basketball player Caitlin Clark for Division I;

• Mount Union track sprinter Kenadee Wayt for Division III; and

• Spring Arbor soccer player Mackenzie Selvius for NAIA.

Mines runner Zoe Baker was also named the top scholar-athlete in NCAA Division II women’s cross country/track & eld.

In May, Matocha received a bachelor’s degree in computer science with a 3.64 GPA. He’ll be studying for a master’s degree in computer science during his nal year of NCAA eligibility.

According to Mines Athletics, during the 2022 season, Matocha led NCAA Division II in several categories, and his 4,778 passing yards set program and state records.

After helping lead the Orediggers to last year’s title game, Matocha received the 2022 Harlon Hill Award — the Division II equivalent of the Heisman Trophy. He was also named the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame’s Male College Athlete of the Year, among other athletic and academic honors.

Athletic Director David Hansburg, President Paul C. Johnson and other Mines supporters congratulated Matocha on social media for his Academic All-America award, expressing how proud the Orediggers are of him and all his work as a student-athlete.

“John exempli es everything a coach could want in a student-ath-

lete, especially at a place as unique as Colorado School of Mines,” Coach Pete Sterbick said in the July 26 press release. “On and o the eld, he is the leader of our team. He is incredibly competitive as a player, but also puts great value in academics, and personi es what it means to be a Mines football player.”

Matocha and his fellow Orediggers

kick o their 2023 season in a few short weeks, as Mines hosts Grand Valley State on Aug. 31.

Preseason camps will run from Aug. 7-20, and will be free and open to the public. e team then starts o cial practices Aug. 21.

Denver Disruptors bicycle racers to roll through Commerce City

National

Cycling League event will bring big competition to the city in August

Can’t get enough professional sports teams in Colorado? Good.

e National Cycling League has you covered. It’s bringing an exciting, free professional bicycle race to the Front Range.

e NCL Cup, a series, is in its rst year, and composed of 10 cycling teams composed of men and women — including the league-leading Denver Disruptors. ey compete in three

The Denver Disruptors are made up of men and women professional cyclists. The team is currently in first place in points. The team will compete at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park on Aug. 13 in Commerce City.

RACERS

races across the country for one NCL Cup champion to be crowned this fall. e rst event in Miami in April rallied nearly 20,000 spectators. e league is hopeful for similar numbers as cyclists race a course around the Colorado Rapids’ soccer stadium at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City on Aug 13.

“It’s the world’s rst majorityminority and female-owned sports league,” said Reed McCalvin, the vice president of teams and operations for the NCL. “ e four founders, and then myself, a founder with a very little ‘f,’ basically wanted to help change the face of sports and equality in sports.”

e founders include successful executives, tech company veterans, NFL agents, lawyers, and more, with high-pro le investors in professional sports, such as the NBA’s Bradley Beal and the NFL’s Jalen Ramsey and Derwin James.

ey all have the same goal: to bring cycling to the next level on a new, even playing eld. e races are not multi-day, grueling races with mountain passes somewhere along the way like the Tour de France and ones closer to home from years past, including the Colorado Classic and USA Pro Challenge.

e NCL is criterium-style racing, meaning they’re fast-paced as cyclists ride on a set race course, doing laps to gain points along the way.

e women and men compete in di erent competition groups for the same team, so each side brings equal weight to the scoreboard.

A new, even playing field

And, the NCL is set up in a way that allows men and women on the teams chances to contribute to the score. Some teams, such as the Denver Disruptors, have a full team of both men and women. Other teams that do not have both women’s and men’s divisions may merge with another women’s/men’s team for the purposes of competing in the NCL Cup Series.

For example, the Goldman Sachs

ETFS Racing women’s team and Texas Roadhouse Cycling Team men’s team combined, and they’re currently sitting in third place.

“ e National Cycling League is setting a new standard for inclusivity in professional sports by championing diversity. I was drawn to the opportunity to impact and transform communities through our mission,” said CEO Andrea Pagnanelli. “With more than 50 million cyclists in the U.S., we have an opportunity to grow the passion and excitement for the sport of cycling among the next generation of fans.”

But perhaps the experience and cohesion of the Disrupters is what has them so ahead of the pack. Currently the team is in rst place with a score of 139. e Miami Nights are in second sitting at 95.

“Everybody has a mother, daughter, girlfriend, cousin, niece, what have you, that wants to see them equally represented and paid well. Sport is the great equalizer. One of our underlying taglines is ‘Make bike racing look like America looks,’” McCalvin said.

ere are nearly 30 di erent nations represented in the participating teams, and several of the riders are former Olympic and world-renowned athletes.

Why Denver?

After a year of diligent research, which included meeting advisors from a plethora of other professional sports leagues and studying cycling in America, Denver emerged as a prime candidate for an NCL hub not only to host a local team but to hold events in the future.

“Colorado is just a cycling state,” McCalvin said. “Denver makes it consistently in the top 10 cities. We had a 49-row wide Excel spreadsheet of di erent reasons, including socioeconomics, number of people that bike, what the city spends on infrastructure around bikes, all that stu . Denver was in the top 10 in nearly every category.”

Noah Granigan is one of the Denver Disruptors, as has been a part of the Colorado cycling community since he attended CU Boulder in 2014, where he was a member of the college’s cycling team.

As a fourth-generation international-level cyclist, Granigan has cycling in his blood. He now lives in Superior and said Colorado is the perfect place for cyclists.

“Colorado is such a great place to be a cyclist in terms of training roads, weather, and the massive cycling community so I ended up just staying in the area after I graduated,” Granigan said. “Colorado has become my new home so it’s pretty cool to now be on a Denver-based team.

“Denver is such a strong cycling community because it’s simply a great place to be a cyclist,” Granigan added. “ at’s why there are so many professional cyclists that come from or move to Colorado. e road cycling is world-class, and then you have such incredible mountain biking, gravel, bike parks, and bike friendly cities like Denver on top of that.”

The ‘Ford vs. Ferrari’ model

Just because Denver is a great hub for cycling doesn’t mean the team was guaranteed success. In fact, McCalvin said there was some experimenting in bringing together the NCL, and he followed a popular movie’s method for nding and creating the best teams.

“One of the things I came up with was this ‘Ford vs. Ferrari’ concept,” McCalvin said. “It started with a blank slate. So we have a Miami team that I made more ‘Ferrari’, where it was a bunch of existing criterium racers in America and some track racers. And with Denver, we went with more long endurance road racers and former Tour de France riders and some track racers as well. is was like our beta test for our rst year. We’re just trying to see what works.”

So far, Ford is crushing Ferrari, and endurance-based riding is dominating.

“It didn’t take long for our team to really start to understand, read, and communicate with each other midrace,” Granigan said. “With riders from all over the world, all with their own strengths and styles, we were quick to take all of that and create a really strong unit, which we demonstrated in the Miami Beach cup in the rst race of the year.”

Development of the future

e experimentation is still ongoing, McCalvin said. e three events this year are all in di erent formats.

e Miami event was held on Ocean Drive. e Denver event is held at a professional sports facility. e Atlanta event will be more private and VIP-based.

“We’re trying to gure out what the model is in relation to keeping it community-based and getting the local families and community involved. I want your aunt to go and have a good time. Not just you because you enjoy cycling,” McCalvin said.

But McCalvin knows the future of all sports is in broadcasting. e NCL events are all broadcast on the GCN+, the Global Cycling Network streaming service. It’s all about expanding the league’s reach and getting new fans invested and interested in the sport.

“We’re very excited about being at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park,” McCalvin said. “A big part of what we’re doing is development of the future. It’s one of our pillars. It’s the best thing in the community.”

At the Aug. 13 event, there will be free junior racing, free mountain bike crit racing for kids, and a community ride for fans of all ages.

In fact, everything involving the event is free: the parking, the tickets, the community-based activities involved, and watching the pro race. e only thing interested fans will need to purchase is food and souvenirs, unless they want VIP tickets, which can be purchased on www. nclracing.com.

“Now we’re the cycling team in Denver and Colorado, and that’s important to us,” McCalvin said. “I remember when the Mammoth rst started, and I remember when the Rapids rst started. It didn’t quite happen all at once. It started semi-small-ish, and it’s grown into a [signi cant] fanbase and community staple.”

For more information on the NCL and the Denver Disruptors, visit the team’s website at www.nclracing. com/teams/0/denver-disruptors. “Paint your faces, bring your ags, and come out and support!” McCalvin said.

Dakota Ridge QB commits to Northern Colorado ahead of senior year

Blake Palladino discusses

Division I jump, final season

BY JOHN RENFROW JRENFROW@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A Littleton quarterback is gearing up for his nal season of high school football, but he has already decided which college he wants to play for despite the o ers still coming his way.

Blake Palladino of Dakota Ridge High School had a busy o season. Not only was he preparing himself for his senior campaign on the eld, he was sorting through options that would determine his future. After visits to several Division I programs over the past year, including Wyoming, Colorado, Hawaii, North Dakota State, and Pittsburgh, Palladino ofcially committed to the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley.

“It’s an opportunity for me to play football at a really high level in my home state,” Palladino said. “I also have relatives that played up there. My uncle won a national championship with them in the 2000s. My other uncle played baseball up there.”

Palladino’s junior season was his best one yet. According to MaxPreps, the 6-foot-3 quarterback for the Eagles threw for 15 touchdowns and 1,392 yards, while adding 608 rushing yards and nine touchdowns on the ground. at’s an even 2,000 all-purpose yards.

His boost in rushing this season was by design, said Coach Ron Woitalewicz of Dakota Ridge. It keeps

the defense on its toes and allows the Hawks to do more on o ense, making it one of Palladino’s best weapons, and one that was relatively untapped until his junior season.

Prior to last year, Palladino had only rushed for a career 273 yards; not even half of his 608 last fall. It became a point of emphasis for the team early into last season.

“After the rst couple games, we started letting him carry the football more, and he’s really good at running

Blake Palladino is entering his senior season as the quarterback at Dakota Ridge High School. But he’s already committed to the University of Northern Colorado, a Division I school in Greeley.

Having a guy like Palladino lead by example in the locker room and leverage that success into Division I college o ers does a lot for the program, Woitalewicz said. And, he’s only played for Dakota Ridge for one season.

As a senior, Palladino will be a team captain, as voted by his teammates. Not only has he helped put Dakota Ridge on the must-watch list in the upcoming season, his success inspires other players to strive for similar mountaintops, Woitalewicz said.

But what quality of Palladino’s will translate best when he gets to UNC?

“I think the biggest thing is he’s re-

He’s 100-percent bought in. I think this has taken some of the pressure o of him. Now he can just line up, play football, not worry about all that stu and enjoy his senior year.”

It’s a really big deal for me to play for my state. Plus I think [UNC Head Coach Ed Lamb] and the sta are building something special up there. I think that it was important for me to know where I’m going to go. I’m very con dent with North-

A state championship. at’s my goal and everyone on my team’s goal right now. We have a serious opportunity this year and we have a really talented group of guys. It’s nice to be committed because I can just focus on the high school season right now. I’m also going to play a little bit of linebacker, too. at’s going to be exciting to grow and get better at. And there’s always parts of my game at quarterback I can get better at, too.

Who are some quarterbacks you try to emulate or model your game after, if any?

I like to be myself and play my own game. But if I had to pick out a quarterback that I would say I play like, I would say Baker May eld. I’ve always been a Baker May eld fan ever since he was at Oklahoma.

Public Notice of Petition for Change of Name

You used your legs a lot more this past season. Do you like being that dual-threat, or do you only run when you have to? Do you expect to run more going forward?

I do. I do enjoy it. I feel like it opens a lot more up for the o ense. And you know, it’s fun to score.

e Net ix show ‘Quarterback’ is all the rage right now. What’s perhaps the hardest aspect of actually being a quarterback?

I would say individual week game-planning, because you don’t run the same plays against every team every week. New adjustments every week are sometimes di cult. You just have to keep your head in it.

Is it surreal to be a Division I athlete, or did you expect to be here?

I feel like I’ve been working for it my whole life. It’s going to be a new challenge and there’s going to be new obstacles in my way, but I feel like I’ve been working hard enough to get past them and I’m just really excited to take that next step. But my senior year is rst, and that’s what is most important right now.
