Evergreen girls lacrosse makes history Team wins first Class 4A state title BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS
AURORA — Rachel Sanford knew when she took over Evergreen’s girls lacrosse program three seasons ago that the Cougars could win a state championship. “It’s crazy,” Evergreen senior Margo Miller said. “Rachel (Sanford) when she first came to our school, she looked at the (trophy) wall and said, ‘One day you are going to be state champs.’ I was a sophomore then, and we all kind of laughed, but today is that day.” Top-seeded Evergreen finished off its historic season by winning the first-ever Class 4A girls lacrosse state championship on June 23 at Legacy Stadium in Aurora. The Cougars took a 19-5 victory over No. 10 Castle View. Not only did Evergreen win the state title, but it is the first high school in Jeffco Public Schools to win the girls lacrosse title. “This is awesome,” Evergreen sophomore Bella Reece, who had six goals in the state title game. “To make a name for Evergreen. This is so big. All of our seniors, they hyped us up and brought our team together this year. I’m so excited.” The Cougars (11-2 record) never trailed in the title game. Evergreen scored 10 unanswered goals in the final 13 minutes of the first half to grab a commanding 14-2 lead after halftime.

MORE STATE SPORTS COVERAGE • Boys lacrosse — Page 10 • Girls soccer — Page 10 For the second straight playoff game, Evergreen induced a running clock with a 10-goal lead in the first half. “We had to come out super strong and look for that extra pass,” Reece
said. “We were hyped. We were able to get that running-clock before halftime.” The Cougars had one of the most potent offensive attacks in 4A this season. Miller, along with sophomores Averi Gardner and Reece all finished the season with 40-goal seasons. “That’s pretty sweet,” Miller said about the three 40-goal scorers. “Bella and Averi are studs. I’m so excited to see what they do in the future
with this program. It was so great to have so many offensive threats.” Miller and Gardner had five goals each in the championship game, just behind Reece’s six tallies. Senior goalie Lauren Spence and Evergreen’s defense held all opponents under double-digit goals during the Cougars’ 11-game winning streak to finish the year. Spence will continue her playing career at SEE CHAMPS, P14

Anne’s pets were her passion and delight. She leaves behind two dogs and four cats that were rescued and doted on. Having rescued countless animals throughout her life, Anne was a stray dog or cat’s best friend. Anne’s love of animals was matched only by her generosity, thoughtfulness, and loyalty as a friend. She would do anything for those she loved and brought a bright light with her. Anne will be remembered by her friends as a quick-witted, fun-loving woman that was always up for anything, especially if it involved ice cream, fancy clothes, or costumes. Anne was an active member of the Evergreen Rotary Club, and she valued the many friendships she made there. Her husband wishes to thank all of those who cared for her during her last year and is particularly grateful to the members of the Evergreen Rotary for the compassion and support they gave her. On Wednesday, July 7th at 10 am, the Evergreen Rotary will host a Celebration of Life for Anne Field at the Evergreen Lakehouse. The celebration of life is open to her many friends to attend. Memorial contributions may be made to Best Friends Animal Society, 5001 Angel Canyon Road, Kanab, Utah 84741-5000.

She loved the outdoors. One of her greatest joys was hiking near her home with her husband and dogs. She was a keen observer of wildlife and wildflowers, and she recognized and could make many bird calls. Some of Anne’s close friends likened her to Snow White with all of the birds and animals she invited to her home through her elaborate system of birdfeeders.

Each garden has a purpose: a firewise rock garden at the Evergreen Fire/Rescue building, a Victorian garden and an herb garden at Hiwan Heritage Park, and xeriscape gardens in several other locations. Most of the gardens are joint efforts between the club and a business partner that helps pay for the plants each year, said Annell Hoy, the garden coordinator. The club had planned to have a community day, which is a fundraiser, last weekend with Master Gardeners stationed to answer questions, but threats of rain sidelined the event. Hoy said another date would be selected in July. Hoy likes that the club’s public gardens are located throughout Evergreen. “There are features to see when you come through Bergen Park and as you leave at the dam,” she said.

Sheriff’s Calls Moving madness CONIFER — Bad neighbors Taylor and Kanye have been at odds over easements for years. JCSO got sucked into the boundary battle on June 3, when Taylor called to complain that Kanye “yelled at me” and “dumped over my trash cans.” Making her case face-to-face, Taylor told deputies the morning’s trash can tempest began when Kanye “moved our trash cans to the other side of the driveway.” Kanye is a “fairly aggressive” personality, Taylor said, and she’s “afraid of what he may do.” By way of evidence, Taylor showed the officers lots of video that was heavy on hollering but light on littering. Finding no crime in the case, deputies merely documented it. To serve and object CONIFER — The process server called JCSO on the evening of June 2 to report that a “hostile” party “won’t let me get back in my car.” That hostile party called JCSO a few minutes later to report being “body slammed” by the process server. Process Server told deputies that he’d been diligently plying his thankless but necessary trade, knocking on Hostile’s door with papers in hand addressed to Mrs. Hostile. When Hostile appeared unwilling to produce his wife, Process Server took out his phone and started “filming” Hostile’s home, which prompted Hostile to take out his phone and start “filming” Process Server’s filming. As near as officers could
gather, when Process Server finally gave up and headed back to his car, Hostile stationed himself in front of the driver’s door. In diverting to the front passenger door, Process Server may or may not have “pumped” Hostile’s back “with his shoulder.” When Hostile followed Process Server around the vehicle hoping to suppress egress by that avenue, Process Server’s swiftly opened door may or may not have whacked Hostile “in the groin area.” Process Server told deputies he just wanted out of there. Hostile told deputies he just wanted Process Server out of there. Deputies waited until Process Server left and then got out of there.

That’s how she met Mr. and Mrs. Holme, who were so taken with Gypsy’s online ebullience that they invited her to park her trailer in their driveway for a spell. In person, the Holmes found Gypsy a little less lovable. Cracks first appeared in their cozy arrangement when Gypsy diagnosed one of the Holmes’ dogs with an “unknown illness” and delivered it to the nearest veterinary office for expensive residential treatment, apparently without prior consultation with Mr. and Mrs. Holme.

Detours around Evergreen Lake should start in late December Plans for detours on Evergreen Parkway are firming up as officials get closer to putting the Evergreen Lake North Trail project out for bid. The timeline has the work starting in late December or early January, and the detour would be in place for four months. Evergreen Park & Recreation District board members said at the June 22 meeting that they wanted the work to be completed no later than Memorial Day to have less impact on downtown businesses and the summer tourist season. The project will replace the trail along Evergreen Parkway and add one along the lake shore. EPRD has procured $3.8 million in grants to build the trail. EPRD, the Evergreen Metropolitan District, Colorado Department of Transportation and the city of Denver are stakeholders in the project. The detour has been a big concern for EPRD officials while one lane of traffic is blocked on Evergreen Parkway. The detour is expected to take northbound traffic through downtown Evergreen and onto Meadow Drive to get to Evergreen Parkway, while southbound traffic will drive on the remaining open lane next to the lake. Chris Vogelsang with OV Consulting, which is working on the project, said traffic counts on Evergreen Parkway and Meadow Drive show that the detour should operate “acceptably well.” He said CDOT has suggested that flaggers be stationed at the intersection on the east end of downtown Evergreen to keep traffic moving as it makes the left turn. Vogelsang said his firm was working on contract language to provide incentives for the selected construction company to finish the project early and penalties for being late.
trict officials are creating a Memorandum of Understanding to work out details of the project, which is spearheaded by Scot and Charlotte Wetzel of Evergreen, EPRD Executive Director Ellen O’Connor said. Their nonprofit, the Teddy Wetzel Memorial Field Project, will pay to have the artificial turf installed. The Daniels Fund and the El Pomar Foundation are the major donors. The field will honor their son, Robert Edward “Teddy” Wetzel, who died on Aug. 5, 2017. He was a rising sophomore at Evergreen High School. The Wetzels told the EPRD board at its April 27 meeting that they originally wanted to turn a gravel field off of Buffalo Park Road between Evergreen High School and Wilmot Elementary School into an artificial turf field, but that project hit some snags, so they decided to move forward with the Stagecoach Park project. The preliminary estimate, according to EPRD officials, to install artificial turf on the 80,000-squarefoot field is $624,000.

Association wants longer boating hours While the Evergreen Boating Association says the boating hours on Evergreen Lake are good, they could be better. Jim Chiddix with the association said boaters would like to have the lake open for boating from 7 a.m.-8 p.m. rather than the current hours from 8 a.m.-7 p.m. The extra hour in the morning and evening would allow boaters, especially locals, to get some time on the lake when it isn’t as crowded. Chiddix said the association would like the lake open with extended hours on weekends especially since it is so busy. The goal, he added, would be to eventually have the lake open for boating from sunrise to sunset. Board president Monty Estis at the June 22 board meeting promised to discuss extended hours with Evergreen Park & Recreation District staff, noting that the district would need to determine whether there would be enough boaters to warrant extending staff hours. Boaters pay a fee to use the lake.

Keeping open spaces from being ‘loved to death’ JCOS, CPW looking for solutions as people flock to parks in record numbers BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Jefferson County and Colorado Parks and Wildlife are looking for ways to educate visitors to help them stop loving to death area parks and open space. Officials at a town hall meeting on June 26 discussed more signage and additional training to help visitors understand what they need to do to prepare to be outside and to respect the environment. They want to get park and open space visitors to have the mindset that they are visitors in someone else’s home. “What we are trying to do,” said Tom Hoby, Jeffco Open Space’s executive director, “is get across to people the whole idea that conservation is a team effort. It’s not about just the staff and the volunteers. It’s the staff, the volunteers, the visitors and neighbors all working together. We need people to do the right thing and give them the information to do that.” Hoby and Zach Taylor, Staunton State Park’s manager, said the number of visitors to the outdoor spaces increased by more than 50 percent since 2019, and many were first-time visitors who didn’t always understand preparation and protocols in
the parks. Taylor said there were days last spring and summer when Staunton State Park hit its visitor capacity by 9 a.m. Preparing for the experience “More and more, people are not knowing before they go,” Hoby told about 15 area residents at an outdoor town hall hosted by Jeffco Commissioners Lesley Dahlkemper and Andy Kerr, and state Sen. Tammy Story and state Rep. Lisa Cutter. The group gathered at the pavilion at Hiwan Heritage Park, which is the smallest of Jeffco Open Space’s 27 parks. Taylor said he sees what staff members call “flip-floppers,” people who wear flip-flops to go on difficult hikes. “They are coming without water, without food, without resources, and they are trying to do a 12-mile hike,” he said. Hoby said in 2011, Jeffco Open Space did a countywide resident survey, learning that most people got information about the parks they were visiting when they arrived at the parks. “That means people aren’t understanding how to be prepared, what’s available, whether to bring their dog and what important things they need to have with them,” Hoby said. Making changes The survey results led JCOS to do more work to get information and maps to would-be visitors, more

robust websites and a social media presence. There are five steps to an outdoor experience: planning, travel to the destination, the experience, travel from the destination and recollection of the experience. “The first one is really important to make the other ones meaningful,” Hoby said. Ill-prepared people tend to need more help, so they put first responders at risk, he added. In the short term, Hoby said trailheads and parking areas were expanded in places where it was possible, and parks and open space used rolling closures at trailheads that were too full. Those at the meeting suggested signage with a color scheme or some other easy-to-understand method to make it easy to determine whether
trails are easy, moderate or difficult. Taylor said state parks are using drawings to provide visitors with information rather than using a many-word explanation that people might not read. “We’re going to see if that will work better,” Taylor said. Heroes during the pandemic Both lauded the parks employees and volunteers who worked through the pandemic to provide outdoor experiences for visitors. “These frontline workers were able to keep parks open,” Hoby said, “for people’s health, fitness and mental wellbeing. For the lion’s share of the pandemic, we were the only game in town. … They are definitely among the heroes of the pandemic.”
Conifer author named Colorado Book Awards finalist Two Evergreen authors are CAL finalists BY GRACIELA A. FISCHER SPECIAL TO THE COURIER
Conifer author Melissa Payne was named a Colorado Book Awards finalist in the general fiction category for her novel “Memories in the Drift.” Although the book did not win the category, authors who are finalists still consider themselves winners, said Abby Kerstetter, the Colorado Center for the Book programs coordinator. “It really is a celebration to a finalist,” Kerstetter said. “It is a great celebration of the variety of work that is in Colorado.” The 30th annual Colorado Book Awards, sponsored by the Colorado Humanities & Center for the Book, highlights Colorado authors, editors, illustrators and photographers. Payne’s book was one of three finalists in the fiction category. A total of 190 entries competed in 17 categories. The book follows the story of Claire, who lost her unborn child and her short-term memory. However, when characters from her past return, there’s more to relive than she wants. Claire learns that what is most important might not be recreating who she was but embracing the possibilities of who she is.

Isn’t it nice to have a normal summer in the foothills? “You don’t know what you’ve got ‘til it’s gone.” — Joni Mitchell June has been a whirlwind month — the busiest month I’ve seen in, well, more than a year. From the Memorial Day music festival to the Rhubarb Festival in Pine Grove to the Day of the Arts by Center for the Arts Evergreen to the iconic Evergreen Rodeo and Parade, the foothills are alive again. What a welcome change! We all know there’s been a dearth of events and activities here for the last 15 months as we have sheltered in place, socially distanced, stayed away from loved ones and worn masks — all for a good cause: to keep us safe and healthy. Now that we’ve moved to more normalcy, it’s time for events that allow us to greet old friends, meet new ones and reignite the feeling
of community that we know so well. Several thousand people did just that during rodeo weekend. Of course, nothing compares to the Evergreen Rodeo and Parade, a Father’s Day weekend tradition that — News Editor like everything else — was canceled in 2020 in the name of safety. The rodeo and parade are always a special tradition, a nod to Evergreen’s Western heritage, but this year they were the ultimate community events — allowing residents and visitors to feel the normalcy that we took for granted before the pandemic gripped the world. Organizers have said that the
DEB HURLEY BROBST
motivation for this year’s rodeo weekend was to bring people together again, to be a catalyst for family fun and returning to the events we know and love. In my 32 years living in Evergreen, 13 of them working at the Canyon Courier, I probably have watched or have been in the parade 25 years. Whether sitting along the parade route with my family and dog, walking the route as a reporter or being part of an entry, the parade is among the highlights of my summers. Who doesn’t love the Scouts and school groups, the classic cars and floats, the nonprofits and businesses, the politicians, the candy for the kids, the swag for the adults — and the fire trucks that provide a wet respite from the warm weather? In addition, the rodeo per-
formances, Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association events, bring cowboys and rodeo enthusiasts from all over the state and the country to the El Pinal Rodeo Grounds for two action-packed shows. On top of that, who doesn’t love mutton bustin’? I hope as we move through this summer and beyond that we don’t take the events that make our foothills home special for granted. Saying, “I’ll skip it this year. I’ll go next year,” now has a different meaning since we have lived through a pandemic that shut down our community, our state and our country for 15 months. This is a reminder that we shouldn’t take the people, events and community that are near and dear to our hearts for granted. I’m glad we’re — as they say — back in the saddle again.
John Hurley is a hero Columnist’s note: My intent in writing this was to highlight someone’s bravery and to point out the positives from his action in addition to reminding readers that many others like him are out there. I wrote these words before it was revealed that he died as an unintentional consequence of the Arvada Police Department’s response to an active situation. How John Hurley died is extremely unfortunate, but it does not subtract from his noble and selfless actions. Of course, the ultimate responsibility for this tragedy lies with the gunman. John Hurley was a hero. From all indications he died a hero’s death. When the gunman started shooting on June 21 in Olde Town Arvada, John Hurley ran into the danger zone after urging others to get to safety. Media reports on
Denver 7’s website state that Mr. Hurley confronted the gunman, according to an eyewitness. At this point law enforcement is not able to say how Mr. Hurley died other than a fatal bullet wound. An eyewitColumnist ness has stated that it was Mr. Hurley who shot the gunman. A law enforcement official has stated that if Mr. Hurley had not acted as he did that the loss of life probably would have been greater. I like to tell people who get discouraged about the state of society in general that there are more good people than bad ones in this world.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR County disregard Editor: On June 19 at the Rodeo Parade, we all saw what our commissioners think of us by sending empty cars with their names plastered on them. Unfortunately this has been the case for some time with the BCC and Planning/Zoning choosing to ignore many of our concerns regarding their representation of the unincorporated foothills of Jefferson County. Whether it is roads/evacuation routes, wildfire issues, water quality and quantity problems or developments that are overreaching the resources of our area, they are not listening to us. We have had small-group meetings that have gone nowhere with promises of future meetings that never transpired. We have had a consulting group from Ohio represent the commissioners to see what could be
If that were not the case, then you would see a lot more mayhem, murder and unhappiness occurring everywhere. What is important to remember about these heroes is that they are quiet, unobtrusive but ready to act if danger should arise. They step up and act even if they must act alone. They cut across every conceivable line and division that exists in American society today. In fact, it would be difficult to create a concise definition of these folks. What is important for everyone to know is that these heroes, like John Hurley, exist and are ready to help if need be. That should provide a certain degree of comfort for everyone who just wish to live their lives and do not wish to wonder if a mass shooting will occur when they are out.
Reasonable precautions should always be employed, but it is important for everyone to live their life without fear. I try to take scripture seriously. The quote from St. John, “Greater love than this no man hath, that a man lay down his life for his friends” would certainly apply to John Hurley. John Hurley went to Heaven when he died, in my opinion, because of how he met his death. I like to think another Colorado hero, Kendrick Castillo, met him at the Pearly Gates and uttered the words from St. Matthew’s gospel, “Well done good and faithful servant because thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will place thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.” Joe Webb is the former chairman of the Jeffco Republican party.
ABOUT LETTERS TO THE EDITOR done to “improve” their image of being generally unresponsive to our letters and requests for public response to most every issue that they are currently facing that impacts our area. We need to band together to be heard. We need to re-evaluate who we voted for and if they are not truly representing us, we need to take action as a community to let them know how disappointed we are with their inactions. Like the empty cars at the Rodeo Parade, they are simply shells of the representation we voted for. Contact our commissioners at Jeffco.us and let them hear from you.

Heartbreak in state title matches Quest for first boys lacrosse championship comes up just short BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS
EENGLEWOOD — Evergreen’s boys lacrosse team was six minutes away from hoisting the Class 4A state trophy June 22 at Englewood High School. The Cougars had scored four unanswered goals to grab a 4-2 lead on top-seeded Cheyenne Mountain (12-1 record) in the state championship game. However, the Indians mounted a comeback for the ages with three goals in the final 5:15 minutes of the fourth quarter to steal a 5-4 victory from the Cougars. “We knew we had to play 48 minutes of solid lacrosse. Some of those small mistakes toward the end really did cost us. That was unfortunate,” Evergreen coach Jay Egger said after the Cougars’ first appearance in a boys lacrosse state championship game. “We played a really good Cheyenne Mountain team. Congratulations to them; they deserved it.” Cheyenne Mountain sophomore Kevin Papa scored the eventualgame winning goal off a great feed

Girls soccer team loses in last 12 seconds to Holy Family BY BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS
COLORADO SPRINGS — Evergreen was mere seconds away from heading to overtime against Holy Family in the Class 4A girls soccer state championship game on June 26 at Weidner Field in Colorado Springs. However, Holy Family junior Gianna Sandoval proceeded to break the hearts of the Cougars with a perfectly placed shot that found the back of the net with 12 seconds remaining in regulation time. “I think we hit a point in the game where this was the first game all season that we were tied this late in a game. I think that messed with our heads,” Evergreen senior Myla Stewart said after a heartbreaking 2-1 loss. “I think we lost focus in the back and up top, it got in our heads missing chances. We kept taking shots. They just didn’t fall.” Holy Family senior Jaelen Giron had made a solid run for the Tigers before losing control of the ball in the Cougars’ defensive end. However, an Evergreen clearing attempt went right to Sandoval who knew she didn’t have much time to get a shot off. “I was definitely looking at the clock. I knew I had to do someSEE SOCCER, P11

thing,” Sandoval said. “I thought it was going overtime, but I didn’t want it to go overtime. We had to put whatever we had on net.” Evergreen junior goalie Aubrey Huerta made a valiant diving attempt, but the shot from about 30 yards out was just too good. “Gianna makes those shots all the time,” Holy Family coach Michelle Griego said. The Tigers (11-2 record) went into celebration mode as the No. 2-seeded Cougars (13-1) were shocked that their undefeated season had come to a close with another loss in a 4A state championship game. Evergreen suffered 1-goal losses to D’Evelyn and Cheyenne Mountain in 4A title games in 2017 and 2019. Stewart opened up the scoring in the 7th minute with a direct free kick that she hit hard on the ground that Holy Family junior goalie Olivia Dietrich couldn’t reach. It would be the lone goal of the game for Evergreen as Dietrich was solid making a handful of saves. “This was the year, disappointment definitely,” Stewart said of the Cougars’ third runner-up finish in five years. “We came in with a good mindset, but we didn’t play with a good mindset, and that’s the difference of winning and losing.” Dennis Pleuss is the Sports Information Director for Jeffco Public Schools.

Park & Rec Month at EPRD July is National Park and Recreation Month and Evergreen Park & Recreation District (EPRD) is excited to celebrate this along with many other park and recreation agencies across the U.S. This celebration started in 1985 to recognize the vital services park and recreation agencies provide to their communities. This has never been more apparent than over the last 18 months. EPRD did and continues to take care of several parks/ playgrounds/trails which are used daily by local district residents. At the Evergreen Lake & Lake House, staff had to work to find creative solutions to offer outdoor recreational activities while following public health orders that limited capacity numbers in 2020. EPRD reconfigured their typical large public skating rink into thirty 50’ x 80’ individual family

skating rinks to meet public health orders. In fact, they even created smaller rinks at Buchanan Ponds to allow as many people to skate as possible over the winter while still providing a safe environment. EPRD even redesigned their youth sports leagues by offering clinics to keep the youth active and developing their skills so they would be ready when it was time to return to competitive games. EPRD implemented new procedures for residents to workout and swim at the two rec centers while maintaining social distancing. This included adding Zoom fitness classes to help with individuals’ physical and mental well-being.
“EPRD wants the community to celebrate with them throughout the month of July!” The last 18 months has been tough on everyone; park and recreation agencies across the U.S. worked tirelessly to keep recreational programs available to the public. EPRD is no exception and faced the challenges with determination, flexibility, and ingenuity! While Park and Recreation Month is a good time to reflect on all that was accomplished in the last year, EPRD also wants to look forward as many of their activities are returning to a more “normal” state. Therefore, EPRD invites the community to celebrate with them throughout the month of July! There are many things on the calendar such as summer concerts, trail races, some free fitness

more goal in there, that would give us all the momentum,” Egger said about the Cougars going up 4-2 with the goal from Dries early in the fourth quarter. “It was right there.” Cheyenne Mountain took a 2-0 lead through the first quarter with goals from sophomore Hank Walsh and Papa. However, the Indians were tagged with a 2-minute illegal stick penalty between the first and second quarters. Evergreen took advantage with senior Jared Stiller rifling in the Cougars’ first goal 19 seconds into the second quarter. “That man-up play gave us some momentum that we needed to come back,” Stiller said of his power-play goal. It was a defensive struggle for the remainder of the first half. Morris was solid in net with defenders Stiller, senior John Wagner and sophomore Mike Crane holding Cheyenne Mountain scoreless for more than 30 minutes of play. “We kind of knew if we were going to stay in the game we had to keep our defense together and hold them down,” Stiller said. “Damn, we did pretty good but not good

fired a hard pass to Papa, who was camped out just to the right of Evergreen senior goalie Andrew Morris. “They worked it around to the top right corner and kind of lulled our defense a little asleep,” Morris said of the Indians’ eventual game-winning goal. “When we expected a shot from the top left, they fired a pass right across my face. It was a beautiful play by them. They deserved that goal.” Evergreen (11-2) has a couple of scoring chances late. A play set-up for senior Ben Crosbie just missed, and a final shot by senior Connor Dries was saved by Cheyenne Mountain sophomore goalie Matthew Kelleher in the final seconds. It’s the second state title for Cheyenne Mountain, who has advanced to the last three 4A state championship games in 2018, 2019 and 2021. There was no state championship game in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. “We knew if we could get one

enough.” Evergreen scored back-to-back goals in a span of 7 seconds in the third quarter to take a 3-2 lead. Sophomore Nash Carroll got off a shot before taking a huge hit, but the shot got past Kelleher. Senior Jack Fairbanks won the ensuing face-off and drove to the net and scored with 7:53 left in the third quarter to give the Cougars their first lead. A power-play goal by Cheyenne Mountain sophomore Wyatt Furda cut Evergreen’s lead to 4-3 with 5:15 to play. Papa had a hard shot hit off the post and in with 3:42 left to tie the game at 4-4 before Papa’s third goal of the night sealed the victory for the Indians. “Things could have fallen either way,” Egger said. “Tonight I’m proud of our coaches. I’m proud of our players. We just fell a little short. Hopefully we gave the community and our families a good show. Evergreen is going to be around here for a while.” Evergreen went 1-13 during the 2016 season. Egger took over the program in 2017 and the Cougars went 10-5. Evergreen made its first playoff
appearance in 2018. Two years ago the Cougars won their first playoff game. This year Evergreen won its first-ever conference title while making its deepest postseason run in the program’s history. “If there is anything we can still be proud coming out of this game,” Stiller said. “We were setting (school) records even before we got to the playoffs. We did stuff this school has never seen before. I definitely believe we’ll see another Evergreen boys lacrosse team back here soon.” Evergreen graduates 17 seniors that were the heart of the Cougars during this historic season. “I’m so proud of these boys and this program,” Egger said. “They changed this program forever. These 26 players have changed it. They worked so hard and I wanted (state title) for them. I’ve been coaching a long time, and I’ve never had a group like this. I love every single one of them.” Dennis Pleuss is the Sports Information Director for Jeffco Public Schools. For more Jeffco coverage go to CHSAANow.com/Jeffco

Loyola University Maryland. The Cougars had defeated the Sabercats earlier this season. Evergreen took a 14-7 win against Castle View back on May 28. Castle View actually entered the state tournament with a 5-5 record, but the Sabercats went on a remarkable run in the state tournament. They upset Golden, Aspen and Grand Junction to make Castle View’s first girls lacrosse season a
memorable one, but the Cougars ended the Sabercats’ run in the title game. “We have really been building to the level of play that we are showing now all season long,” Sanford said. “We have prepared all week and pretty much all season to show up today, and they did.” Evergreen got off a bit of a rough start this season with opening losses to 5A programs ThunderRidge and Fairview. However, the top-seeded Cougars hit their stride, winning 11 straight games to close out the season. Eight of those victories were by double-digit margins.
“After the first two games, we really learned what we needed to do,” Reece said of the 0-2 start. “We got to play two amazing 5A teams and were able to grow from that. Our team has developed so much.” “It’s so great to end it like this,” said Miller, who will play lacrosse at Cornell University. While the Cougars graduated a handful of seniors, there will be plenty of key returners to give Evergreen the chance at back-to-back state titles next year. “I’m pumped for next year,” Reece said. “We have a lot of good incoming freshmen.

next year.” Evergreen has a solid 23-6 record under Sanford since she took over the program in 2019. “It’s exciting to see a lot of young fans and players in the stands,” Sanford said as the Cougars celebrated after the game. “Mountain lacrosse keeps getting better.

For the love of skateboarding Evergreen’s Jaxon Statzell designs parks, even for the Olympics BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
They say if you do what you love, you never work a day in your life. That is true for Jaxon Statzell, a 2004 Evergreen High School graduate who has designed more than 100 skate parks all over the world in his 12-year career. Better yet, he was the lead designer on the skate park for the inaugural skateboarding events at the summer Olympics in Toyko. “It’s such a cool thing to be on that grand stage,” said Jaxon, 35. “It’s really fun to be at the table for skateboarding at the Olympics. It’s getting some of the legitimacy that it deserves.” The skate park — with both park and street courses — is in the Ariake Urban Sports Park near the Olympic Village in Tokyo. Forty male and 40 female “skaters” — the term for someone who skateboards — are expected to compete July 23Aug. 8, and plans call for the skate park to become a public venue after the Olympic games. “In the Olympics, you have to design something that elevates anything that was done previously,” Jaxon explained. “The Olympic course has to be such that any skater can achieve their personal best.” His parents, Gail Riley and Tom Statzell of Evergreen, are thrilled that he has found the perfect career path. “I’m just proud of him in every respect,” Riley said. “I do slip (what he does for a living) into conversations because I’m so proud of him. I’m tickled with his happiness and that level of success.” Starting on a skateboard Jaxon learned to skateboard when he was about 10. Tom Statzell said Jaxon spent that entire summer learning to pop the board in the air, forsaking other sports for his new passion. “On vacations, every single thing revolved around getting him to a skate park,” Riley said. After graduation, Jaxon studied architecture at the University of Colorado at Boulder. “In college, skateboarding was my hobby, and architecture was something I found I could do as a potential career,” he said. “I didn’t know an industry existed for skate parks.” While interning at a Denver architecture firm, he checked out a new skate park in Parker and was impressed with how progressive it was, not the typical gray, concrete, fenced enclosure. “Whoever was doing this was trying to evolve these spaces …,” he said, “so I decided to look up who was responsible for it.” Enter a small firm in the San Diego area now called California Skateparks, and his career in the skate park-designing world began. The first skate park he designed was outside Tel Aviv, Israel, and
Jaxon Statzell, a 2004 Evergreen High School graduate, is a skateboard enthusiast who also designs skateboard parks, including the park for the inaugural Olympics event. Here he is doing an ollie over the gator gap. COURTESY PHOTOS
While creativity is important, “the nuts and bolts is that it’s a lot of grinding it out — making sure it can be built to the right specifications. I think he has a special talent for it,” Tom Statzell added. Creating a skate park — especially for something as elite as the Olympics — means going into what Jaxon called “video game mode” where designers put themselves in the minds of the top athletes to create features, explaining that skateboarding has a mind of its own. “It evolves constantly and changes,” he said. “(Skaters) keep advancing and do more and more. I don’t think (park designers) can dictate what (the sport) is going to do. We can help it and move with it because it moves really fast.” Jaxon Statzell’s designed his favorite skatepark in San Diego that is “about 30,000 square feet of skate park with everything imaginable packed into it. It also features a pedestrian bridge soaring over the top for onlookers to check out all the action.”
since then, he has designed skate parks for cities large and small, for the X Games, Street League Skateboarding and more. “The nice thing about skate parks,” Jaxon said, “is we do something totally different every time that is site specific. Somebody is going to show up on any given day for the first time, or someone is coming back for the thousandth time. You want it to be safe for the beginners with stepping stones for progression, so they can get better. For the person there for the thousandth time, you still want ways for them to be stimulated and challenged and keep working on their craft.” Tom Statzell added regarding Jaxon’s career: “I think (the company loves) the world stage and doing big events, but I think Jaxon
gets a bigger kick working on the public skate parks because it brings younger people into the sport.” A talent for skateboarding, details There are two skateboarding disciplines: street skateboarding, which has stairs, rails, benches and more, and park skateboarding, which is like an empty swimming pool with different features that Jaxon said looked like “the surface of the moon,” and it’s skated free form. Both are part of the Olympics. Jaxon excels at his profession because of his attention to detail. “He will hammer out details until everyone else in the room wants to go home,” Tom Statzell said. “He is fortunate that he (works) for a firm that is as obsessive as he is.”
Doing what he loves Skateboarding is not just his job — Jaxon still gets to a skate park several times a week, and he was able to take a few runs on both Olympic courses, though he admits he doesn’t try death-defying tricks. “I am pretty risk averse these days,” he said. “I can skate within my means.” Sometimes Jaxon can`t believe he’s working in the field that he loves. “I think the 15-, 16-year-old me would high-5 me now and be like, “YES,” Jaxon said. Skateboarding is seen by some as not requiring discipline, but he said there’s a lot of life lessons. “It’s about getting back up after you fall and following the learning curve that is really steep,” he said, noting that having parents who were “open minded enough to allow me to be myself” was helpful. “I feel very grateful and lucky to be doing what I’m doing.”

Evergreen Children’s Chorale celebrates 30 years of performances BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The foothills are alive with the sound of Evergreen Children’s Chorale music. The group has had more than 650 children in second grade through eighth grade perform hundreds of concerts and musicals for the foothills community in its 30-year history. The Evergreen Children’s Chorale for children in fifth grade through eighth grade was formed in 1991 thanks to a Scientific and Cultural Facilities District grant written by Jenise Harper. Its first concert in June 1991 was titled “Kids Take Center Stage.” Prelude was added in 1997 for second- through fourthgraders to prepare them for ECC. For Lindy Casados, her 24 years with the organization — assistant director until 2014, then director since then — have been fulfilling and a huge part of her life. It’s not just teaching music and musical theater. “Honestly, it’s the entire experience,” she said. “I know that sounds cliché. It’s the excitement of the performance, and what it does for the kids and the audience. It’s the final product, the teamwork of putting it together and putting together something wonderful.” Casados is joined on staff by Prelude director Lisa Cole and Gail Montgomery, choreographer, stage director and set designer. The children’s chorale rehearses for a winter concert and a spring musical. Students audition to be part of the program, and members can’t say enough good things about the directors, the friendships and the joy of performing. “I learned how to enunciate, to sing better, to do choreography and to act better,” said Amelia McCord, 12, who has been in ECC for five years. “All of the amazing friends I’ve had and the experiences I wouldn’t have gotten in school,” said Maribel Brannan, 14, “and I get to perform with people I adore. I’m grateful to

Some ECC members say they became involved because their siblings or friends were in the program. Others said they love to sing and act, and still others said they were motivated after they saw an ECC show. The leadership agrees that the group is a family. “The organization has such a rich history in the community, having been there for 30 years, that they are just friends of friends of friends whose kids and grandkids, next generation kids and neighbor kids become part of the group,” said Cole, who has been with ECC for 15 years. “It becomes this web of beautiful connections.” Cole explained that students join the group from all over the foothills and occasionally from down the hill. “Kids come from all different places, and having the ability to perform together year after year creates a rapport among the performers that just gets stronger every year,” Cole said. “It’s really fun to watch them grow up.” The joys of live theater When Casados thinks of the musicals that ECC has performed over the years, three are standouts. First, “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.” “The same season we did `Joseph” (in 2008), the Broadway touring company was in town,” she said. “We auditioned and 16 of our kids went down (to the Buell Theater) and did performances.” She said she also loved doing SEE CHORALE, P17

“School of Rock.” “We were the first youth group to do it in the state of Colorado,” she said. “It was very much a challenge. You had singing over rock-style instruments. It was a different show for us. There were parts that were a bit more adult than we were known for doing in the past. It ended up being such a fun show, and I think the audience loved it.” And then there’s “Seussical the Musical,” “another show I absolutely love. It’s one of my all-time favorites.” In its early years, ECC focused on the classic musicals, but they tend to be really long, she noted. Then publishers began creating shortened versions, which allowed for more variety in the shows kids’ musical theater could tackle. She also remembers a couple of the-show-must-go-on moments. In the first show she helped direct, “Oliver,” the fire-alarm system was having difficulties, so the alarm would go off unannounced at various times during the show. “The kids were fantastic,” she said.

“They kept plugging along.” Another year, a cast member fell off the stage during the performance, though he wasn’t hurt. Now, before each performance, the cast has an energy circle in which they chant, “Don’t fall off the stage.” “It’s now pretty amusing,” Casados said. “It’s something we’ve carried on all these years.” Casados admits she’s a perfectionist, and there’s something in every show that doesn’t go the way she would like. “But it doesn’t matter what I think,” she explained. “It matters

The Start and Spread of Wildfire in the Wildland Urban Interface The wildland-urban interface (WUI), defined as the area where houses are in or near wildland vegetation, is where wildfires pose the greatest risk to people due to the proximity of flammable vegetation. Wildfires frequently burn houses in the WUI and are most difficult to fight there. Furthermore, the WUI is where people often ignite wildfires, and the vast majority of fires are humancaused. While fires are an integral part of many ecosystems as a whole, humans have changed wildfire environments throughout the Rocky Mountains, and climate change will increase fire frequency in the future. Though a natural part of the Rocky Mountains, fire is one of the most feared, fought and controversial components of our physical environment. The landscapes of the Rocky Mountains have been shaped by frequent wildfires for thousands of years. The role of fire in these ecosystems is evident from studies of past vegetation, fire scars on trees, the evenaged character of most forests and records of explorers. Until the beginning of the 1900s, wildfire burned through the forests of the Rocky Mountain West at fairly regular intervals and was a natural component of fire-dependent ecosystems. Today, as more people build homes in the WUI, they become part of the growing risk for wildfire destruction. Wildfire is viewed as an undesirable natural phenomenon that can destroy homes and property and place
lives at risk. But wildfire is a natural part of Rocky Mountain West ecosystems. Residents living in the WUI should learn to view wildfire the same way residents in other parts of the country view tornadoes, floods and hurricanes — as natural phenomena that can devastate property and life — and prepare accordingly. How do wildfires start? The conditions do not have to be too crazy for a wildfire to start. Wildfires can start with something as random and unpredictable as a lightning strike hitting a tree. Even for a lightning strike, the conditions need to be right for the spark to really catch hold. A fire needs an igniter, some fuel and strong wind. Besides a random strike of lightning, forest fires can also be ignited by: • Powerlines: When a powerline is hit by some high winds or a car crashing into it, the lines break. As the lines are broken, there is usually some sort of large spark, enough to ignite a flame that can spread to the rest of the forest. • Arson: Unfortunately, sometimes a forest fire can break out because someone purposely started it. Arson has been identified as the cause of many wildfires in Colorado. • Campfires: If a campfire is not put out correctly, or if it was made in a spot where it is illegal to start a campfire, the embers can be blown from the pit and onto a pile of dead vegetation. • Cigarettes: Cigarettes starting

wildfires are common along roads as burning cigarettes are discarded. • Other human-related causes: While we use the term wildfire, a lot of these fires are not started by random natural events, but the introduction of humans and our technologies into a forest setting. (Editor’s Note: This time of year, we certainly have to mention fireworks in this category.) Wildfires are driven by three basic components: weather, fuel and topography. Together, these three items affect the likelihood of fire starting, how fast it moves, its power and difficulty to control. Weather Dry, hot and windy weather increases the likelihood of a major wildfire. These conditions make ignition easier, help fuels burn more rapidly and increase fire intensity. High windspeeds, in particular, can transform a small, easily controlled fire into a catastrophic event. The East Troublesome Fire in Grand County in 2020 is an example of the impact of winds on the spread of fire. The East Troublesome Fire grew 100,000 acres in 24 hours. High winds, erratic winds and changing wind/ humidity conditions are of great concern for firefighters. Fuel Fuel is required for any fire to burn. In a wildfire, fuels are usually living vegetation (trees, shrubs, brush, grass) and dead plant materi-
Message from the Conifer Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors: As mask mandates are lifting and businesses are opening back up, we as a community can celebrate! Together, we made it through one of the most challenging times in recent history. It has been our honor at the Conifer Area Chamber of Commerce to help our local businesses and individuals find resources when they needed assistance. We connected people together through online networking activities and welcomed visitors as often as possible. It is always inspirational (but never surprising) to see our community work together. Now, we are excited about what this summer offers! We are incredibly fortunate to have many options for recreation and entertainment. Maybe you want to go for a hike with the family and then enjoy a delicious meal at a local restaurant or perhaps you are looking for a romantic night away from home. Conifer and the 285 corridor offer options for everyone! Our local businesses offer just about every good, service or experience you need to enjoy your free time without a trip down the hill. Outdoor activities, dining and shopping are a few of the many reasons why the 285 Corridor is the place to be. With all the opportunities, it is important to remember that our community is part of the Urban Wildland interface. This means we share our backyards with bears, deer, elk, foxes and even the occasional mountain lion or moose! It also means our risk of wildfire is more
als. Homes, when in the path of wildfire, can become fuel. The quantity, size, moisture content, arrangement and other fuel characteristics influence the ease of ignition, rate of fire spread, length of flames and other fire behavior. Topography Of all types of topographic features, steepness of slope is among the most influential on fire behavior. The steeper the slope, the faster a fire will spread. Other important factors are: • Aspect –south and southwest slopes usually have more fires • Chimneys –steep, narrow drainage The Colorado wildfires of 2020, destroying hundreds of homes and killing several people, were driven by high winds. Wind will blow and spread the embers onto new piles of kindling until the whole forest is aflame. In addition to the wind, wildfires will burn better going uphill. The heat from the flames will warm the trees and other fuels, making them more readily available to burn as the fire steadily approaches. Once wildfires have wind to push them along and they are exposed to the right topography, the glowing red inferno will burn everything in its path from beautiful, centuries-old forests to our neighborhoods in the foothills. Daniel Hatlestad is the battalion chief for the Inter-Canyon Fire Protection District.

Marmot Fest a fun event honoring the furry creature BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Who wouldn’t want to be like a marmot? That’s why kids’ activities at the eighth annual Marmot Fest at Staunton State Park last weekend included climbing rocks like a marmot, finding food before hibernation like a marmot and having your face painted so you look like a marmot. Get the theme here? Marmot Fest’s goal is to get kids and adults alike to understand marmots and their importance to the ecosystem. People usually see them when they climb 14ers, said volunteer Mary Beth Carpenter, so they don’t realize marmots live at the park. In fact, the marmot is the park’s mascot. “Actually we have a pretty good colony living here,” Carpenter said. “We have a team that looks for the marmots because they are an indicator species of how things are doing in the park. If the marmots are not being found, it’s because they are migrating further uphill, and we think that’s because of dogs and people in the park. “Besides that, they are so darn cute.” She said 6,500 feet is about the lowest elevation where yellow-bellied marmots live, and the marmot pups are born in June. Many don’t realize they are related to groundhogs and woodchucks, and sometimes they are called whistle pigs because of the high-pitched sound they make to warn others in their colony. Sean and Katie Bowden of Evergreen brought their children Axel and River to Marmot Fest. Both brought marmot stuffed animals they had from previous excursions to the event. “This is a fun little festival,” dad Sean said. “It’s a classic mountain festival. Our kids love it.” Jack Karle, 7, of Evergreen made a marmot sock puppet, tried rock climbing for the first time and played marmot-themed games. “We’re always excited to come back to Marmot Fest,” his mom Andi Gehlhausen said. Aidan Kuntzelman, 7, and his mom Alisa of Lochbuie, Colorado, decided to attend Marmot Fest for the third time with grandma Carolyn Purdy of Conifer. Aidan tried rock climbing with the help of

UMCE bids farewell to pastor Olenyik BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
“Exit, stage right,” is the way the pastor at United Methodist Church of Evergreen referred to her retirement during her last sermon on June 24. In her three-year tenure at the church, pastor Deb Olenyik motivated the congregation to get more involved with ministries both here and abroad, and the congregation has grown. Olenyik, 65, is retiring from ministry and moving to the West Coast to be near family. Before coming to UMCE, she was a minister around Colorado and Wyoming. “I am at a stage in my life where I need to live near family,” she said. Her replacement, Pastor Sarah Clark, starts on July 11. “She’s interested in you rather than herself,” lay leader Jeanne Ambrosier said of Olenyik. “She’s that kind of person who asks you questions about you, your life and what’s going on. I see her as a strong counselor and an outstanding preacher.” Ambrosier noted that Olenyik was very organized, very knowledgeable about the Bible and a great preacher whose sermons could be applied to everyday life. Congregation members also talk about her leadership to create protocols to bring church services back in person in March as COVID-19 restrictions were lifting — removing cloth seats and replacing them with plastic, keeping chairs apart, adding plastic shields and lots of cleaning.
United Methodist Church of Evergreen pastor Deb Olenyik preaches her last sermon titled “Exit, Stage Right” on COURTESY PHOTOS June 24.
Pastor Deb Olenyik is retiring from a 40-year career as a pastor, most recently at United Methodist Church of Evergreen.
“We were able to resume worship, as well as our children’s and youth ministries, onsite much quicker than most churches due to the high COVID protocols the congregation and staff put into place,” office manager Jessica Coons said. In addition, church members joined to organize the first Barefoot Walk in the foothills to benefit Joy International, which helps keep young people out of the sex-slave trade, and to be involved with Re-
silience1220, an Evergreen organization that provides counseling to teens. Olenyik said she would tell the new pastor that the congregation is ready to have a team-approach to ministry, and it will look to her for spiritual leadership but is willing to start new ministries. “I would tell her I have been fortunate to live and pastor in Evergreen,” Olenyik said. “This congregation is what I would call robust.
I think they are going to warmly welcome her.” Olenyik plans to spend some time playing pickleball, being outside, taking community college classes and travel. “Thank you to the Evergreen community that has welcomed me and supported my ministry,” she said. “I greatly appreciate it.”
News briefs STAFF REPORTS
Kittredge residents want safe access to O’Fallon Park Kittredge residents are asking Jefferson County and Denver Mountain Parks to create a safe way for residents to walk and ride bikes to O’Fallon Park. They say it is unsafe to walk on Highway 74 to the park entrance because there is no sidewalk or bike lane, and instead some are crossing private property to get there. The Kittredge Civic Association has begun contacting government entities to discuss ways to create a path, according to association President Jason Stawski. “I have reached out to start the conversation,” Stawski said. “I have encouraged community members through Facebook and board meetings to start a letter-writing campaign and discuss the safety issues of having families and children walk or ride their bicycles along Highway 74 into O’Fallon Park with hopes that there is some sort of solution.” Stawski said there were several possibilities to solve this safety issue: an easement to put a trail across private property into the park, a guardrail to separate pedestrian traffic from vehicle traffic on Highway 74 and more.
“We don’t have a whole lot of money,” Stawski said. “We don’t have anything to bring to the table other than our concerns and ideas.” Kiwanis to host cornhole tournament Evergreen will have a cornhole tournament this summer. Blue Spruce Kiwanis will host the first “Toss for a Cause” cornhole tournament from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 14, at Buchanan Park.

Lakewood family creates new board game Homemade creation becomes a business BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
What does a family do when a global pandemic hits, leaving countless hours to fill and three children to keep entertained? If the family in question is the Goekes of Lakewood, they invent their own game, which is actually three games, and turn a homemade time-filler into an exciting new home business. “We always struggled to find family games that gave the kids a fair shot at winning, but which also kept all ages engaged. So, we made one of our own,” said Jeff Goeke, father of Claire, 12, Eve, 10, and Jacob, 7. Canoosh, the game the Goekes created, uses the principle of probability in rolling number combinations with a pair of dice to create what they call a portable, fun, family-friendly com-

petition for all players. “We knew that if we were going to create a family game, we knew it had to work where the adults weren’t bored and the kids had an equal chance of winning,” Goeke said. “We feel like through the testing and the writing of the game-play, we really cracked the code on the family game that everybody wants to play.” information and to purchase tickets, visit evergreenarts.org.

Goeke, a graphic designer by trade, said it didn’t take him long to start thinking about the look and feel of the game, including packaging and branding. “My background, my nature, is to create things, make them visual,” he said. “As soon as we felt we had some viable game-play with this, we started taking it to the next level — logo development, identity.” He said his work with various startups over the years showed him how quickly a product can go from idea to investor. On the financial side, the Goeke family has been able to fund the game’s production on its own. Prototyping, testing and refining soon followed. Now, the game, which started on a lark, is being sold online and in a retail store in Jeffco. Composed of a game board, colored marker chips and two dice, Canoosh gives players a chance to “roll the dice, place their chips on the corresponding numbers on the board, remove (Canoosh) opponents’ chips, and conquer the board to win,” he
said. Eve said the name Canoosh is a play on a nickname (Noosh) she’d given her little brother, Jacob, a few years ago. Originally called Probability, Goeke said that name didn’t come close to relaying the amount of fun the game had to offer. Claire said another fun part of creating the game has been the time spent assembling the packaging with her family. “We order our supplies, then as a family, we all pitch in to sort out the chips, cutting out the instructions and putting the game boards into the tubes,” she said. “Then, once they’re packaged, it’s pretty easy to take them to the store in a neat little box.” The Goekes say that’s fine for right now but admit they’d love to see large quantities of the game being shipped to Target and Walmart in the future. For now, you can pick up your copy of the game at Canoosh.com and Golden Goods in Golden.

Mask ... or no mask?
“I went to the grocery store without a mask today.” So said my neighbor just back from shopping. I asked how many were maskless. “Mostly it was the younger ones,” she said. Which didn’t surprise me. The - yearold age group is the one with the smallest percentage of people vaccinated, according to a recent poll. The Centers for Disease Control and

NOW HERE’S A TIP * Groceries and food shopping can eat up a tremendous portion of your budget if you aren’t careful. The best and most serious money-saving tip for home economists is to ALWAYS use a list. It really does make a difference to have a plan. Here are some more tips to save money while feeding your family. -- JoAnn * Most stores list the unit price on the shelf tag. Use it to compare the cost of different sizes and brands of the same item. Just because a package is bigger doesn’t necessarily mean it has the best price per unit. * “A secret of busy moms: Cook once, eat twice (or three times, if you plan well)! When you prepare favorite recipes that will freeze well, or even just elements of those
SENIOR NEWSLINE
Prevention says we don’t need to wear a mask any longer, indoors or outdoors, if fully vaccinated. But a survey of U.S. doctors showed that over half disagreed with the CDC’s new loosened rule. A survey of nurses said the same thing, at an even greater rate. Both groups said the easing of restrictions is premature. And if the loosened mask restrictions were supposed to encourage people to get the vaccine, it failed spectacularly. A recent Kaiser poll revealed that % of
those who don’t want the vaccine don’t care about the mask rule. We have so many young people here where I live with no masks and no vaccine. We have a big population of seniors with underlying health conditions that make getting COVID even more dangerous. We have a wide variety of variants now with no clear indication about whether the vaccines cover those. I only need look at our local statistics to know the virus is not only still with us, but
recipes, make a double or triple batch. Then a few nights of the month, you can just pop something in the oven easily. I cook taco meat once for the month, and we have tacos every week. I just freeze three portions of the meat, and the rest is easy to assemble.” -- K.S. in Florida * “If you know you’re going to make a purchase soon from a specific store, search online for discounted gift cards to that store. Many people get gift cards for places they don’t shop, and they sell them at a discount for cash. That’s a percentage off your purchase just for preplanning.” -- E.S. in Virginia * Remember that, typically, the higher shelves and the lower shelves at the grocery store house the better deals.
in some cases it’s getting worse. We have more people in the ICU than before, and more of them are on ventilators than we saw before. While they don’t release the ages of people in the ICU, it’s known here that the patients are mostly the younger ones that object to the vaccines ... and masks. Am I ready to go to the store without a mask? No, not yet. (c) King Features Syndicate

Public notices are a community’s window into the government. From zoning regulations to local budgets, governments have used local newspapers to inform citizens of its actions as an essential part of your right to know.

Notices are meant to be noticed. Read your public notices and get involved!
Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored. - Aldous Huxley
Every day, the government makes decisions that can affect your life. Whether they are decisions on zoning, taxes, new businesses or myriad other issues, governments play a big role in your life.
