Wind Crest hosts Pride Parade Residents, family members and employees celebrate the LGBTQ community

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Around 70 Wind Crest Senior Living Community residents, family

members and employees participated in the second annual Pride Parade on June 24.

Wind Crest Executive Director Craig Erickson said in past years the community participated in the Denver Pride Parade. Last year, after the Denver parade was canceled amid the pandemic, Erickson said they came up with the idea to celebrate the LGBTQ community at the Wind Crest facilities in High-

lands Ranch.

Craig said residents at Wind Crest are accepting and loving as they get involved in planning the inclusive events. Erickson said a lot of the ideas come from the community’s diversity and inclusion program, which is led by the 2021 parade Grand Marshal Jim Genasci.

The Douglas County School District was able to fold additional dollars into the 2021-22 final budget from the proposed budget that district staff presented in May. The district’s board unanimously approved the budget for the upcoming school year at a June 22 meeting.

Board directors had nothing but praise to offer district finance staff, who were drafting the budget for four months and working to accommodate the many requests from board directors and community members about next year’s financial priorities.

“This work is the clearest I have ever been able to understand the school district budget,” said Board Director Christina Ciancio-Schor at the June 22 meeting.

The budget-drafting process for the 2021-22 school year dealt with several unprecedented factors, such as restoring budget cuts made in response to COVID-19 and distributing federal relief money. Also, the SEE BUDGET, P31

Council, design board meet to clear the air Design Review Board members say they follow codes set by council

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In a joint session with the Castle Rock Town Council, members of the Design Review Board said all decisions made for downtown developments are in accordance with established town code.

At the start of the June 23 meeting, Councilmember Desiree LaFleur apologized to members of the Design Review Board (DRB), saying she felt they have been attacked unfairly by some members of the town council. She commended their work in making decisions based on town code, noting that she feels they are essentially an HOA for the Castle Rock downtown.

In a 5-2 vote earlier in the month, the council opted to hold the special meeting to discuss continued issues between the two boards. Earlier this year, the council voted 5-3 to keep the DRB intact as is. The three dissenting councilmembers, Caryn Johnson, Tim Dietz and Laura Cavey, continue to bring up the issue, expressing concern with a nonelected board making major development decisions for downtown.

Cavey pointed out the DRB has the same powers as the elected town council, while noting they can make decisions without the consequences of dealing with the citizenry. As the argument over DRB authority has continued over the last six months, Cavey has said the DRB has too much authority and the ordinance should be changed.

Mayor Pro Tem Kevin Bracken, who voted against having the meeting, said he did not understand why the issues are being brought up yet again.

“Unelected officials — get over yourself, there are seven votes,” Bracken said, referring to the DRB. “Change the process on how that happens or leave the folks alone. We are berating these folks on what our marching orders told them to do. We appointed them to be our conduit on to a successful project and process. This is insanity to me.”

Dietz said he is not attacking the volunteer board members; he is questioning the ordinance that gives the DRB powers to make major development decisions.

Johnson expressed her concerns with the DRB’s lack of attention to a traffic study regarding The View, a proposed mixed-use, sixstory building with 218 for-rent residential units, 14,500 square feet of office space and 5,000 square feet of retail space.

DRB Chairman Stu Butler said

none of the members of the volunteer board have the expertise to break down a traffic study paid for by developers. Butler said the board relies on recommendations and information from members of the town staff who are qualified to review the information.

After being asked to clarify what the town staff’s role is in helping the DRB, Director of Development Services Tara Vargish said they treat the DRB as they do the planning commission and town council. No matter which board is looking at a project, Vargish said the same town staff reviews infrastructure reports and makes recommendations accordingly.

Cavey said if the process is to follow what town staff is recommending, she questioned other councilmembers on why they have not followed the staff’s recommendation to take any project over 10,000 square feet away from the DRB and require council members to make final decisions.

LaFleur said town staff only made the recommendation as a compromise for councilmembers who will not let the issue die.

Mayor Jason Gray said he wanted the meeting to be about clearing the air and opening the lines of communication. The mayor said he would like to find a way for the council and DRB to communicate better to avoid further arguments and tension.

DRB member Randy Reed is a

former mayor of the town. Reed said he sees both sides of the argument since he has worked on both boards. Reed recommended the council hold a meeting to dig deeper into the ordinances that were set up for the DRB in 2010.

Reed said the environment was a lot different in 2010 when the rules were first established.

“I recommend you decide what to do with this ordinance,” he said. “I understand you have voted on it. It needs to be dealt with or accepted.

Whichever the case may be. This affects the entire town. It is not just downtown Castle Rock. I get and understand the frustrations.”

While the two boards were still discussing issues, Gray called for the hour-long meeting to conclude at the scheduled time. No vote or decisions were made during the special study session.

The DRB is composed of seven members who are appointed by the town council. The appointed board’s makeup requires there to be two downtown property owners, a member from the town’s planning commission, two members from the Downtown Development Authority and two members from the Historic Preservation Board.

The DRB reviews all developments requiring a site development plan downtown. The DRB can also grant variances for projects located in the Downtown Overlay District.

Council considers tax increase options Budget shortfalls in funding police and fire departments a concern as the town continues to grow

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In exploring options to find new revenue streams to pay for the town’s rising operational costs, the Castle Rock Town Council is considering asking voters to approve new taxes in a special November election.

During the June 15 study session, Town Manager David Corliss provided council members with a variety of options, including increasing sales taxes, property taxes, lodging tax and asking voters to change TABOR, Colorado’s taxpayer bill of rights that restricts revenues collected by the town.

To help council members in making decisions, Corliss said the town conducted a scientific poll that focused on ballot language for five revenue areas. In the poll, 827 likely November voters were asked how they felt about an increase in property taxes, adding a new-home construction tax, a sales tax increase, lodging tax increase, and a temporary or permanent change to TABOR. Corliss said based on the poll results, a property tax increase has the lowest likelihood of success in a November election. A lodging tax scored the highest.

Corliss said a sales tax increase and changing the rules of TABOR could be viable to ask voters, but none of them were strongly supported by poll participants.

Corliss stressed that the added revenue streams are needed specifically to fund the town’s police and fire department’s growing needs. In March, Fire Chief Norris Croom and Police Chief Jack Cauley expressed concerns over staffing levels falling behind as the town continues to grow. Both public safety chiefs said if something does not change, they do not feel they can keep providing the high standard of service that has come to be expected.

While the council did not make any decisions on the options pre-

sented on June 15, Corliss stressed that time is of the essence to get on the November ballot for a special election.

“In July, you need to make a go or no-go decision in regard to ballet measures,” he said.

The council will need to make final decisions during the July council meetings, allowing the town attorney time to get the right language to the Douglas County elections offices by September.

As town staff continues to explore options, a website, CRgov. com/OurFuture, has been established to keep the public updated.

Following the special study session, the council held the regular council meeting, approving several preconstruction contracts for upcoming road projects.

The first contract, with Jacobs Engineering, provides for preconstruction services for the planned Crystal Valley interchange on Interstate 25, south of Plum Creek Parkway. The town will pay Jacobs up to $7.6 million to finish the project’s design, complete the traffic analysis needed for Interstate access, and update a federally required environmental assessment.

This approved work will keep the project on track for construction starting in 2023, pending funding availability.

The council also approved a precontract with Stanley Consultants to provide the design for improvements to Fifth Street, including additional lanes, intersection improvements, and bike lanes and sidewalks along the corridor.

The town will pay up to $1.5 million for that work, to get the project ready for phased construction starting in 2023, contingent on budget approval. Outreach for public input would be an important part of the design process.

Also on the agenda, the council extended a financial agreement with Arapahoe Community College for a future second building on the school’s Castle Rock campus. In 2017, the town invested $2 million in the building currently on the campus and committed another $1 million in investment if a second building was built by the end of July 2022. Due to delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, ACC requested the town extend this agreement through July 2025.

Commissioners agree to new leadership structure Chair position will rotate monthly

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

After a “very painful” process following a bout of public infighting, the Douglas County board of commissioners has unanimously agreed to a new leadership structure.

In the past, the board’s chair position rotated on an annual basis based on district, but now Commissioners Abe Laydon and Lora Thomas will alternate serving in the position every month. The decision comes after the board had four meetings with Bill Cadman, a former state legislator who served as president of the Colorado Senate. Cadman volunteered to help mediate the tense situation among commissioners.

“The last 10 weeks have been very painful,” Thomas said.

Beginning with Laydon as chair in July, the two will swap between that position and vice chair every month, beginning on the first Thursday, until January 2023, according to a county spokesperson.

The board’s chair serves as the public representative and leader of the board, according to the county’s policy for commissioners. The chair presides over meetings and decide agendas.

“For myself and the public, I wanted them to know that there’s been no evidence that I did any heinous crime or anything that rose to the level of a censure,” she said in a June 23 interview.

The controversy originated with a request from The New York Times for an interview with a county commissioner. While Teal and Laydon agreed that they wanted Laydon to speak with the reporter, Thomas disagreed and said the two were violating their internal media policy, which would have made it her turn to speak with the reporter. Thomas took this complaint public and emailed at least one member of the business community about the issue.

In a resolution they planned to approve the following week, Teal and Laydon wrote that Thomas had deliberately lied to members of the public and businesses about the media policy, claiming it was an attempt to influence the board.

“Some of those emails were received by businesses with active land-use applications before the board and were interpreted to be intimidation to compel those applicants to influence the board,” according to the resolution.

Thomas later said she didn’t lie but was mistaken in her discussions about the internal media policy.

The resolution would have formally removed Thomas from the

“We worked through a lot of things, some personal, most professional,” said Commissioner George Teal, the third member of the board, about the mediation meetings.

This agreement will expire in January 2023, after the 2022 election for Laydon’s seat. Regardless of whether there is a new board member or if Laydon is reelected, the board will revisit this agreement then.

“We recognize the importance of governing productively with excellence. This leadership structure reflects our agreement to work together in the public interest for those we serve. There is much to do, and we believe this is the best solution to help us move forward,” according to a statement from the board.

Background of situation In April, Thomas, who had been serving as board chair since January, was stripped of that title after Laydon and Teal said she lied and abused her position following a disagreement with the two of them.

At the time, Thomas responded to her removal as chair with a post on her personal website, saying the other two commissioners were “attempting to silence” her. Months after the allegations were made, Thomas says she never saw any evidence to support them.

board chair position and publicly censured her.

However, the day of the board meeting, April 27, commissioners met in an earlier work session and decided not to approve that resolution. Instead, the commissioners said they would try to work out their disagreements.

The board had several meetings previous to the mediation meetings where they attempted to do so. In those, commissioners repeated accusations against each other related to this incident and earlier disagreements.

Mediation meetings In their meetings with Cadman, commissioners talked about their personal, professional and ideological issues with each other, Teal said.

“What I think really happened is we put our heads together and came up with a plan that allows us to get back to work for the people of Douglas County,” he said. “I think we really came together as a team.”

While the meetings began contentiously, they became less so over time, he said.

“There was some understanding,” Thomas said. “I’m not sure we completely agreed on all issues.”

The public meetings were listed as “Administrative Discussion” on SEE LEADERSHIP, P31

PRIDE FROM PAGE 1

Erickson said at the beginning the diversity and inclusion program had about seven members. Now, he said there are more than 60 members.

In kicking off the 2021 parade, Genasci said he has participated in 37 consecutive Pride parades all over the country, including New York and Washington D.C. Genasci said he participates in honor of his son who came out as gay in the 1980s.

“It’s so important that the gay, lesbian, bisexual community and all have visible acceptance,” Genasci said.

“I participated in my first Pride parade in 1983. We celebrate our son’s gayness.

He came out to us that he was not only gay but was with a partner who was Black. In those days, there was so much negativity. We are family. We are open. We are proud.”

Genasci said instead of a march, which sounds militaristic, he feels the annual event should be known as the Gay Mardi Gras because it is a true celebration.

While holding a flag promoting love, peace, respect and pride, resident Mary

Mary Kay Pera holds a flag to celebrate the annual parade along with friend Joan Sloan.

Wind Crest employees Dawn Wright and Mario Bonilla proudly participated in the annual Wind Crest PHOTOS BY THELMA GRIMES parade.

Kay Pera said she is proud of Wind Crest for speaking up and being open and accepting.

Employees who belong to the LGBTQ community were also impressed with how supportive the residents and family are at Wind

Crest. Emma Wheeler, a Wind Crest employee, said it is powerful to see the support.

“Here we have this older community waving flags and openly supporting all,” she said. “It is encouraging and exciting. We have a lot

of people here. We have a lot of love here.”

Resident Rob Datsko walked the parade route with his family, stating, “This parade is great. I just feel like America is about freedom, justice and the welcoming of all.”

Patrice Pierce and Bob Ryerson got decked out for the parade, including dog, Gracie, in the festivities.

Proposed map launches redistricting process 7th Congressional District would stretch from Jeffco to include Castle Rock if preliminary plan holds

BY THY VO, SANDRA FISH, JESSE PAUL AND DANIEL DUCASSI THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado’s new, eighth congressional district would include the cities of Arvada, Westminster, Broomfield, Thornton, Brighton and Platteville, a preliminary map drawn by nonpartisan redistricting staff and presented to the state’s Independent Congressional Redistricting Commission on June 23 shows.

Staff placed the new district in the north Denver metro area for two reasons, said Jeremiah Barry, a legislative attorney advising the redistricting commissions.

“The first reason was we recognize this was the fastest-growing area of the state,” said Barry. “The second was a recognition that although nearly 30% of the population of the state are Hispanics, none of the current seven districts are represented by a Hispanic.”

The map is a major first step in the state’s once-a-decade redistricting process. It will evolve as the commission gets input from the public and interest groups over the next few months.

The preliminary map is based on 2019 U.S. Census Bureau estimates because of a months-long delay in the release of the final population data collected during the 2020 Census. Once the U.S. Census Bureau releases that data in August, redistricting staff will have to adjust the map.

“It’s the starting line, but nowhere near the finish line,” Curtis Hubbard, a Democratic political consultant who is registered to lobby the redistricting commissions, said of the preliminary map.

The initial map, the public’s first glimpse at how the 8th District may affect the state’s political landscape, also makes changes to the state’s existing seven congressional districts.

The 3rd District, represented by Garfield County Republican Lauren Boebert, would gain Eagle, Summit, Grand, Park, Teller and Fremont counties, as well as some of western Boulder County. The San Luis Valley and Pueblo County would be dropped and added to the 4th District, which includes northeast and southeast Colorado and is currently represented by U.S. Rep. Ken Buck, a Republican from Windsor.

The 5th District, currently represented by U.S. Rep. Doug Lamborn, a Colorado Springs Republican, would contract to include only parts of El Paso County. Southeastern El Paso County and counties in the western part of the district would be drawn into other districts.

The 7th District, centered in Jef-

ferson County and currently represented by U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter, an Arvada Democrat, would shift south to include Castle Rock, dropping some of Denver’s northwest suburbs, including the bulk of Arvada.

Perlmutter, however, would remain in the 7th District under the preliminary map, though only narrowly — by about 50 yards.

The new 7th District looks to be the most competitive of the new map. In 2018, the Republican candidate won the attorney general’s contest in the new proposed district by 3 percentage points, though a Democrat won the statewide vote.

The 1st District, represented now

by U.S. Rep. Diana Degette, a Denver Democrat, would encompass only Denver, dropping portions of Arapahoe and Jefferson counties.

The 6th District, represented by U.S. Rep. Jason Crow, a Centennial Democrat, would lose some of its northern half while continuing to include Aurora, Centennial and Littleton. Both of those districts went heavily Democratic in the 2018 attorney general contest, and, along with the 2nd District in Boulder and Larimer counties, are considered safe seats for that party.

Nonpartisan staff used the results of the 2018 attorney general contest, the closest statewide race in a recent, nonpresidential election year, as well as voter registration figures to measure political competitiveness of the redrawn districts.

Based on results of the attorney

general race, Districts 1 and 2 would be solidly Democratic while Districts 4 and 5 would be solidly Republican.

Republicans would have an advantage of nearly 10 percentage points in the 3rd District and 3 percentage points in the 7th District, while Democrats would hold a 12.7 percentage point advantage in the 6th District and 7.3 percentage point advantage in the 8th District.

Colorado Democratic Party Chairwoman Morgan Carroll said she was disappointed by the map, arguing the proposed districts advantage the GOP. “While this preliminary plan seems to put a thumb on the scale for Republicans, it is too soon to know how the commissioners will change them,” she said in a statement.

Multimillionaire weighs in Former DaVita CEO and multimillionaire Kent Thiry, who backed the constitutional amendments that created the independent commissions, also weighed in after the release of the preliminary map.

“These congressional seats belong to the people, not to a political party or interest,” said Thiry. “It’s still early in the process, but it appears the commission is responding to the mandate that it draw competitive districts whenever and wherever possible.”

Redistricting staff also isn’t convinced voter registration and outcomes from the 2018 attorney SEE MAP, P10

MAP

The proposed map for the 7th Congressional District would generally shift southward, losing Arvada and taking in Castle Rock.

general race are the best metrics, Barry said.

“Given the population distribution in Colorado, it is difficult to draw more competitive districts,” Barry said. “When the final data comes out from the Census Bureau, it likely will change, and maybe districts will become more competitive.”

Maximizing political competitiveness also wasn’t a high priority for this draft map, Barry said, as staff is required to meet all the other constitutional requirements first.

Those constitutional requirements include equal population and adherence to the federal Voting Rights Act, which protects minority voters from gerrymandering.

The map creates three districts with Hispanic populations of more than 28%: District 1 with 28.6%, District 4 with 31% and District 8 with 29.9%, according to the preliminary data.

Staff also sought to keep rural areas together as much as possible, keep the San Luis Valley in one district and keep Boulder and Fort Collins together “due to the large research institutions in those towns,” Barry said.

“We should also point out, many times we received conflicting requests under public comments, concerning where some counties should be placed,” he added.

Focus on political boundaries Staff also prioritized keeping entire counties and other political

boundaries together over specific “communities of interest,” a term used to describe communities with shared needs and interests. Barry said staff had difficulty identifying the geography of some communities named by members of the public.

“In this plan, of the 64 counties in the state, 55 are wholly contained within one congressional district,” Barry said.

Staff also acknowledged that comments from certain interest groups influenced their proposal, including the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, which pushed for a district capturing concentrated Hispanic populations in north metro Denver, and Club 20, which called for keeping the entire Western Slope in the same district.

Colorado’s population grew 14.5% from 2010 to 2020, making it one of six states that will get one or more new congressional seats in 2022 due to population gains.

Colorado’s seven existing congressional districts are currently represented by four Democrats and three Republicans.

The map is nonpartisan legislative staff’s initial effort at redrawing the congressional districts, under a 2018 constitutional amendment — Amendment Y — approved by voters.

This year marks the first time independent commissions created

by Amendment Y and a companion ballot question, Amendment Z, are overseeing the once-a-decade redistricting process in Colorado.

In the past, state lawmakers drew the congressional lines, though they often deadlocked and courts decided on the final districts.

State Sen. Faith Winter, a Westminster Democrat, released a statement after the preliminary map was unveiled appearing to express interest in running for the new seat.

“It’s no surprise to see the initial redistricting map center on Adams County for the new CD8,” Winter wrote. “Not only does this help keep cities and school districts whole, it captures diverse communities of interest and creates a district focused on working-class families.

This district deserves solutions and federal legislation that could provide action on water, climate

change, transportation, economic opportunities and growth. These are the issues that have been top of mind for my constituents in (state Senate District 24).”

Colorado’s Independent Legislative Redistricting Commission was to release initial state Senate and state House district maps on June 29.

Both commissions will hold 32 public hearings around the state between July 9 and late August to get feedback on the preliminary maps.

Official census results coming Once nonpartisan legislative staff gets the official 2020 Census data on Aug. 16, they will use feedback from the public hearings, as well as comments submitted to the commissions online, to draw a new set of maps. Another set of hearings will be held in each of the state’s seven congressional districts on the updated district maps.

It’s not clear how different the final population data will be from the estimates used for this preliminary map.

This year, the Census Bureau is also using a new statistical method for ensuring privacy that would have the largest impact on redistricting at the hyperlocal level. Differential privacy injects random errors into the data to make it harder to identify individuals in small communities. Several states are against its use because it also makes data on small geographic levels, like a single census block, less accurate.

Because it’s the first time the agency has used the privacy method, staff say they don’t know what impact it will have until they have the data in hand.

Members of the commissions may recommend changes to the maps as well. The commissioners also aren’t required to adopt the staff’s maps.

“They can choose a map that was drawn by someone completely away from staff or by a commissioner themselves,” Barry said.

The Colorado Supreme Court must ultimately approve the maps submitted by the two commissions before the end of the year, setting the stage for the 2022 election.

VOICES Boys don’t cry, unless they do

“I

’ll do my crying in the rain,” the Everly Brothers said.

Not me. I can cry on a cloudless day. How QUIET about you?

“It must be rain- DESPERATION drops,” Dee Clark said, “it can’t be teardrops, for a man ain’t supposed to cry.”

Ah, but Roy Orbison was closer to the truth: “It’s hard to understand, but the Craig Marshall touch of your hand, can start me Smith crying.”

Raise your hand if you cry.

I cry, and Harry wonders why, when I watch old movies.

Take my challenge: watch “City Lights” and be sure to stick around for the ending, one of the most famous in cinema history.

It’s one of Charlie Chaplin’s best films. The flower girl was played

by Virginia Cherrill, whom Chaplin fired after filming began, then rehired when he realized she was the one.

I’ll cry if I watch one of those manipulative videos on YouTube that shows a dog being reunited with its family.

The video and call of Secretariat’s Belmont Stakes win in 1973 gets to me.

Jason McElwain.

The first time I watched highlights of his basketball game ending heroics in 2006 it was Niagara Falls.

The headline read, “Autistic basketball player Jason McElwain has game of his life.”

He came in off the bench, and, well, what happened looked staged. See for yourself.

Homemade movies, especially of my father, do it to me too. I don’t have very many of them but they work.

My father and mother died at about the time I bought my first digital camera, so the majority of

existing photographs of the Smith family are the printed kind.

There’s one of my father sitting in the stands at a University of Michigan football game with people all around him. But his light-colored hat and coat, and steady gaze and smile at his son who is taking the picture make it look like a competent cinematographer knew how to key on the star.

C.S. Lewis said, “Crying is all right in its way while it lasts. But you have to stop sooner or later, and then you still have to decide what to do.”

My mother cried; my father rarely. They balanced each other in a crisis.

She showed genuine human emotion, but was incapable of solving the problem.

Dad remained calm and solved the problem.

My mother could cry a river. My father teared up a few times, that was it.

“He’s already home,’ Meryl

Streep says to Dustin Hoffman at the end of “Kramer vs. Kramer.”

That did it.

I’m mindful that some directors and writers aim for sentimentality. It rarely works on me if I think that’s what’s going on.

A song that comes on unexpectedly is more likely to do it if I can relate it to someone or something.

My father was a Michigan man.

The school’s fight song gets to me.

Sad news, bad news affects me, and there’s usually a lot to choose from.

“Family IDs 6-year-old boy shot to death in apparent road rage incident on 55 Freeway in Orange.”

The first time I heard details about Sandy Hook.

The Cure: “I try to laugh about it, cover it all up with lies, I try to laugh about it, hiding the tears in my eyes, ‘cause boys don’t cry.”

Four keys to achieving maximum results

D

uring a recent webinar I participated in, one of the other guests talked about having a passion for success, a passion WINNING for winning, and even a passion for WORDS losing. When we succeed and as we win, it becomes very easy to follow the philosophy of “Success begets success,” and “Winning begets winning.”

What about when Michael Norton we lose, or don’t experience the results we are looking for? Is it possible or realistic to have the same level of passion?

Does “Losing beget losing?” The answer to both questions is yes.

No one likes to lose, but everyone can learn from losing. And this is where the passion comes in, making it possible for us to see what we could have done better or differently. And when we can tap into our enthusiasm for learning from failing, it becomes much easier to find the passion for losing. Even becoming so passionate about

losing that we will try new and different things so that we do not fail again in the same way.

Unfortunately, sometimes losing does beget losing. However, this only happens when we fail to take something away from the loss. If we simply accept defeat and keep doing the same behaviors repeatedly, we will continue to lose.

Now when it comes to maximizing results, there are four qualities that I have seen top performers focus on in their pursuit and achievement of success. These qualities include passion, hope, motivation and action.

Living and working with passion is invaluable. Passion excites us.

Passion involves us. Passion connects us mentally, physically, and spiritually. Passion is the secret super-ingredient of success and the realization of desired results.

No matter what we do, regardless of where we are in life, whether we are just starting out, in the middle of our life or career, or winding down and enjoying our sunset years, if we maintain our passion for what we have done and what we are currently doing, it will make the difference in our outcomes.

Hope is the great activator. Sometimes hope is born out of anger or frustration. We are tired of losing or not seeing the results we have been seeking, or we are not seeing progress fast enough. We get so angry or frustrated that we become hopeful. And when we have hope we begin to see the world through a different lens. We see our personal and professional goals and objectives as something we can not only achieve but exceed. With passion-driven hope, our possibilities are endless.

When we find that spark of passion and infuse it with hope, our motivation begins to kick in. We are motivated to make changes that may be needed, attempt things that we used to fear, and look at the obstacles ahead of us as nothing more than the smallest of hills to climb. There are three kinds of motivation; fear; incentive; and growth. And it’s OK to derive our motivation from any one of these.

However, fear-based and incentivebased motivation is only temporary, whereas growth-based motivation is longer lasting.

Now let’s put the fourth key to achieving maximum results into

place. Passion, hope, and motivation may sound fluffy to you, maybe even too soft. Perhaps they are, and that’s OK because they work, or at least they work when we couple them with action. It doesn’t matter how passionate, hopeful, or motivated that we are, if we do not turn those into action, it is really just fluff. Acting means that we move from thinking about doing something, to doing it. Acting means that we are willing to take the first step toward our goals and dreams, knowing that steps two, three and four will follow.

Four keys to maximizing results; passion, hope, motivation and action. Which ones are you already doing and doing well? Which ones could you use a little help with?

I would love to hear your story at mnorton@tramazing.com, and when we combine the four keys to achieving maximum results, it really will be a better than good year.

Michael Norton is the grateful CEO of Tramazing.com, a personal and professional coach, and a consultant, trainer, encourager and motivator to businesses of all sizes.

Lebsack reaches ‘American Ninja Warrior’ semifinals Castle Rock teen will be on the national stage again July 19

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

No matter what the outcome, Castle Rock teen Kaden Lebsack has performed well on the NBC

hit competition show “American Ninja Warrior.” The show, now in its 13th season, is allowing teenagers to compete with adults for the first time.

Lebsack, 15, is scheduled to appear on the show’s semifinal round on July 19.

Lebsack’s mom, Brandi Lebsack, said her son continues to do a great job as he moves through the competition. The show had qualifiers in Tacoma, Washington,

where he clocked the show’s fastest course time, she said.

In a June 7 airing, announcers were amazed with how easily Lebsack glided through the course.

Announcers said Lebsack is the primary reason the series dropped age restrictions this year. Lebsack has consistently performed well against adult contestants.

Brandi said if he does well in the July 19 competition, he will move on to the finals round in

Las Vegas.

Lebsack started training for the national stage when he was 10.

Last year, Lebsack advanced to the semifinals of the “American Ninja Warrior” junior competition.

This year, in preparing for the national competition, Lebsack just competing is a dream come true.

Will Lebsack be the Season 13 Ninja Warrior champion? Only time will tell.

opinion of Ogden v. Utah, Chief Justice Marshall explained that it was a self-evident proposition that the states had the power to carry out mandatory protective measures on their citizenry during public health emergencies.

The Supreme Court reaffirmed this principle in 1905 in Jacobsen v. Mess, which upheld the ability of state authorities to require mandatory vaccinations. And during the 1918-1919 Spanish flu pandemic, no federal court even entertained a case challenging mask mandates and other protective measures. And this principle of state health authority was again affirmed in an opinion just last year in South Bay Pentacostal Church v. Newsom.

Perhaps I am biased. But I think it is safer to trust Chief Justice Marshall regarding what funda-

mental constitutional rights can or cannot yield during a public health emergency, and who has the power to determine that, rather than Commissioner Laydon.

Robert C. Marshall Highlands Ranch

would be most grateful to receive the news. I am aware that Douglas County has a reputation for being renegades, and I am all for individualism, but some of the county commissioners’ actions are bordering on buffoonery. And I really hate for us to have that reputation. Please, I beg for accurate words from our leaders, supported by facts and consideration for the entire community. We are entitled to no less.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Commissioners are off base On May 11, the county commissioners approved a resolution that Douglas County citizens were “free to choose” whether to wear masks or abide by state health orders. Remarkably, the resolution stated: “WHEREAS, the Mask Order is not enforceable because it fails strict scrutiny analysis; i.e. depriving citizens of fundamental constitutional rights without being narrowly tailored to a compelling government interest …”

If the commissioners sincerely believe that, they should file for an injunction rather than engage in political pomposity and puffery.

Commissioner Laydon evidently believes that he can decide what public health measures are allowed during a pandemic based on “fundamental constitutional rights.” Yet in the unanimous 1824

Western Welcome Week taking shape for 2021 Summer celebration is back with plans for festive fun

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In 1928, the late Houstoun Waring, nationally recognized editor of the Littleton Independent, wanted to bring attention to the then-40year-old paper by celebrating the 100th birthday of Richard Little, the surveyor who founded Littleton. The community, then as now, was ready to celebrate, and the first event was called “Homecoming.” Everyone who had visited or lived in Littleton was invited to come home!

The original May date was changed to August when Waring was reminded that train fares went down in August, according to the online history available — with the hope that folks would want to travel then.

The 93rd Western Welcome Week — with a theme of “Together Again!” — begins in Littleton on Aug. 12, with an assist from Mother Nature! The Perseids Meteor Shower Star Party will be held at Carson Nature Center in South Platte Park from 8 p.m. to 11:59 p.m. Bring a chair or blanket, perhaps a snack ... That should get the week off to a spectacular start!

Arts were a part from the first, when a play called “Adam and Eva” was performed by the Littleton Dramatic Club, to benefit the Littleton Hose Company’s Christmas Tree Fund. (The hose company was then something of a social service agency, as well as a fire department, it would seem.)

Local people were invited to decorate their trucks and participate in a parade, with Grand Marshal Mayor Charles Louthan riding on the town water wagon dressed in a Prince Albert costume. (Louthan’s family home is now Littleton’s popular Cafe Terra Cotta restaurant.) We don’t yet know who will be this year’s Grand Marshal, but watch for announcements ...

In 1962, the event was renamed Western Welcome Week and the

The 18th Annual Community Quilt Show and Used Book Sale will be held Aug. 20-21 at Littleton First Presbyterian Church as part of Western Welcome Week. Last year’s Western Welcome Week was almost entirely shut down due to the pandemic, but this screen COURTESY PHOTO grab shows how quilts were shared via video.

event grew from one parade day to a weeklong celebration ...

In 2021, the Grand Parade will be held on Aug. 21 and the week will end with a new event on Aug. 22: a Littleton Symphony concert at Hudson Gardens. (Note: This requires a ticket from Eventbrite, which can be acquired free, but the Symphony, hit by COVID issues like all arts organizations, hopes you will buy one for $10.) In any case, a ticket is needed to enter — here’s one of the spots where that advance planning kicks in!...

Friday, Aug. 13 is when the locally planned events begin with The All-Colorado Art Show open at the Depot Art Gallery from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., continuing through the week and after; concert at Sterne Park by Kyle Allgood and the NoGoods plays from 8 to 9 p.m. Perhaps some readers will want to bring a picnic and stake out a spot on the lawn earlier.

The concert is followed by bright fireworks when it gets dark: 9 to 9:30 p.m.

Bega Park will be the site for the 31st Outdoor Art Market, presented

by Littleton Fine Art Guild from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Aug. 14. This combines well with a visit to that nearby Depot Art Gallery if you haven’t yet seen the All Colorado Art Show!

Open hours will run through the week from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily during WWW. Architecture and stories about past residents will fill the Historic Littleton Inc. walking tour on Aug. 19 along Main Street. Meet at the Courthouse before 5 p.m.

Littleton First Presbyterian Church will host the 34th Annual Quilt Show and Used Book Sale on Aug. 20 and 21, with family treasures and recently stitched quilts draped over sanctuary benches — dazzling! A used book sale will also

be at the church an Aug. 20 and 21.

Which brings us to Saturday, Aug. 21 when the 61st Craft and Home Improvement Fair will fill Downtown Littleton. This used to be called an art show and there will be fine crafts (textiles, pottery, wood crafts) and perhaps some paintings, photographs and prints, but the Depot’s ongoing All Colorado Show will be the place to seek fine arts.

Town Hall Arts Center will also have an exhibit of works by Littleton Fine Art Guild members in its Stanton Gallery soon, which will run through Western Welcome Week ...

And then, there’s the fine art of food to contemplate happily!

Outdoor booths for the Craft Fair are still available, according to Western Welcome Week director Cindy Hathaway. Interested parties can contact the Western Welcome Week office at 303-794-4870.

Loveland captures state girls golf title Rock Canyon, Cherry Creek come in distant runners-up

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Girls golf teams from south metro schools did well at the Class 5A state tournament held June 21-22 at City Park Golf Course but none did well enough to catch Loveland.

Loveland, led by medalist Katelyn Lehigh, captured the state title by a whopping 25 strokes with 450 points.

Rock Canyon was the runner-up at 475 while Cherry Creek came in third at 492. Valor Christian was fourth. Legend and Arapahoe tied for fifth place. Mountain Vista was seventh and Chaparral eighth.

Lehigh tied a course record with a 4-under-par 66 on June 22, the final day of the tournament.

She joined her sister Lauren, who now plays at the University of New Mexico, as a state champion.

Lauren won Colorado state high school titles in 2017 and 2018.

Katelyn, a junior, had six birdies and two bogeys on her finalday scorecard to go along with an opening-round 72 on the 5,732yard course.

“I’m really happy we got the win as a team,” said Katelyn.

“I’m happy. I played well today.”

Rock Canyon was led by senior Grace Dunkleberger who finished 10th with a 156 total after a finalround 81. Other Jaguar golfers were junior Amira Badruddin, sophomore Gisella Lagrimas and senior Olivia Salvatore.

“They girls worked extremely hard throughout the season to reach their golf potential, and it paid off with a second-place finish,” said Rock Canyon coach Ron Saul. “Loveland was clearly the best team this year and it showed with a fabulous performance the last two days. We tip our cap to them, they deserved the win.

“Grace Dunkleberger finished in the top 10 for the second time and will be missed tremendously.

Badruddin was steady as a rock and will be back next year as our captain. Lagrimas is just a sophomore and should be near the top of the leaderboard the next two years. Salvatore worked really hard to improve her game and achieved her goal of playing in the championship. The future of Rock Canyon girls golf is very bright.”

Valor Christian senior Grace Young was the best individual finisher among the south metro golfers. Young carded a 73 on June 22 and wound up fifth on the individual leader board with a 149 two-day total. She had three birdies and six bogeys in her final round to go along with a 76 on the first day.

Teams line up as champions Lacrosse, girls soccer, boys volleyball

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Mountain Vista’s boys lacrosse team continued its dramatic march to the Colorado state championship.

The Golden Eagles played their third straight playoff overtime game, and this win was the most important.

Dillon Pless scored the goal in overtime on June 22 to give Vista the CHSAA state title with a 10-9 overtime win over Valor Christian at Englewood High School.

Pless got the game winning goal in OT on June 17 in quarterfinal victory over Fairview and it was Cam Brown who scored in the extra session in a 13-12 semifinal win over Cherry Creek on June 19.

The victory over Valor gave Vista a final record of 10-2 while the Eagles ended the season at 11-2. Valor,

which had previously won two Class 4A state titles, finished with an 11-2 record.

Pless’ OT winning goal was his third in the championship contest.

Gunnar Fellows and Griffin Mallory each had three goals for Valor.

In the 5A girls title game played June 23 at Legacy Stadium, Colorado Academy won its sixth straight state championship with a 14-3 victory over Valor Christian. The Mustangs were top-seeded and wound up with a 13-0 record while second-seeded Valor ended with an 11-2 record.

In a new Class 4A classification, Castle View’s remarkable girls playoff surge ended with a 19-5 loss to top seeded Evergreen in the June 23 title contest at Legacy Stadium.

Bella Reece scored six goals for the Cougars (11-2) which raced to a 14-2 lead at halftime over the Sabercats (8-6). Castle View was the No. 10 seed but had notched upset playoff wins over Golden, Aspen and Grand Junction which were higher seeds.

A good guide to nearby mountain adventure

T

here is nothing inappropriate in venturing in the outdoors on your own, after all the whole outdoors world suggests a sense of adventure OUTDOOR and offers explorLIVING ing the unseen, the unknown, the new.

But there is also something to be said for preparing and researching.

The Georgetown, upper Gilpin County I-70 region is a growing Ron Hellbusch attraction for the knowledgeable and the adventurous newbies and inquisitive outdoorsman.

This region offers an interesting combination of mountain flora and fauna. The variety of

wildlife, plant, trees and historical waste mineral from the Clear Creek drainage basin’s rich silver and gold mining history, is well within reach of the outdoor explorer. However, to fully experience these assets of nature can be far more fulfilling with some local help from one who knows.

This is where Georgetown’s Kimberly Knox’s local experience enters the picture. Kimberly provides a unique service of guiding individuals, families and youth groups, and sharing the offerings to Front Range outdoors visitors.

With over three decades of hiking, studying, writing, photographing and recording the region’s natural outdoors, Kimberly Knox has assured visitors they can become comfortably familiar with this region of our Front Range mountains.

“I stress outdoors safety and value of good hiking equipment, as first step priorities, as we plan and prepare the hikes,” Kimberly stated. Given her broad experience in group adventure guiding, rock-climbing and mounting biking, Kimberly can offer hikes in a wide range of environments.

“Clear Creek has so much to offer in steep mountain slopes with amazing vistas, to wildflower meadows with small flowing snow melt brooks with opposing vertical rock walls with raging whitewater rapids,” she advised.

Kimberly customizes her clients’ experience and fitness level with options for an exciting and positive hiking experience.

She can include in her planning snowshoes with poles or other unique all-weather equipment,

plus a snack for the beginner, in the price of the tour. For those excited about outdoors activities, but not sure what specific activities to pursue, Kimberly offers “first time support” training and basic pursuit of many adventures to help clients chose their best match.

Kimberly invites calls to further describe services Georgetown Outdoor Discovery provides at 303-900-2672 or email geogetownoutdoordiscovery. com. Colorado’s spring and early summer is prime time to enjoy the Mile High State’s extended beauty by exploring the environment of the Front Range mountain outdoors.

BUDGET FROM PAGE 1

district started a multi-year process to increase employees’ salaries.

“While the order of magnitude of the swing of revenues is just about equal to what we were facing last year, we are in a vastly different position of talking about reinvestment and restoration,” said Chief Financial Officer Kate Kataska at the June 22 meeting.

To address the compensation question, the district set aside a pool of funding to increase employees’ pay to meet a new base salary. If an employee’s salary isn’t at the new minimum, they

the board’s weekly schedule. That schedule, which lists meetings among commissioners — all of which are public — is available at douglas.co.us/commissionersweekly-schedule.

The new monthly rotation plan became an option after Teal said he wouldn’t agree to Thomas returning as sole chair, Teal and

now are, Kataska said. If an employee is already within range of the base, their salaries increase by 4%. If an employee is above the maximum, they receive a one-time payment that’s 4% of their total salary.

The new, minimum base salary for general employees is $43,6000 and the maximum is $91,000.

For “hard to hire” employees, the range is between $48,100 and $96,300. In the proposed 2021-22 budget that staff presented to the board May 11, the compensation pool was $7.2 million. However, that increased to $15.7 million in the adopted budget.

Ciancio-Schor commended district staff for their specific work around compensation. “I just want to thank you so much for paying attention to the com-

pensation for teachers and staff and looking at how that’s going to continue to build,” she said.

The adopted budget had other additions from the proposed budget. The district will restore a ninth behavior specialist position eliminated with the COVID-19 budget cuts, add two autism coaches, and set aside a $2 million reserve for special education programming.

The adopted budget had more spending than the proposed budget because of unanticipated state funding the district learned it would receive after the Colorado Legislature passed the School Finance Act. State per-pupil funding for DSCD will be $8,607, totaling a $47.4 million increase in state funding from last year.

Another difference between the

proposed and adopted budgets is that the district had a more detailed sense of how to spend certain dollars. Back in May, the district knew it would restore $3.5 million worth of COVID-19 budget cuts made to school-building level spending. By June 22, school principals outlined to the district that they intend to spend that money on substitutes, increasing specials teacher hours and classified staff hours, and instructional technology.

There were many layers to the 2021-22 budget, but it ultimately came together, said Board President David Ray. He said, “Thank goodness we started this discussion back in March because when you present the whole picture, it is exhausting to say the least with all the complexities.”

Thomas said.

Then, Teal, who was elected in November 2020, offered to remove himself from the chair rotation, according to the county spokesperson.

“It’s not a title I need right now,” Teal said.

Teal said that while there could have “easily” been a two-to-one decision, Laydon insisted on a unanimous decision and that’s how the board came to this agreement.

“We engaged in direct discussions about challenges and shared

our perspectives about those challenges,” Laydon said. “We have different points of view about those challenges but agreed that direct, timely communications with one another is productive.”

Thomas said that during the meetings she brought up her desire to see herself vindicated following the accusations that were made about her in the other commissioners’ earlier resolution.

“The most frightening thing through all of this is that the public would think that my integrity is

tarnished,” Thomas said. “I have never spoken a false statement, I have never lied … I speak the truth unvarnished and I am not corrupt.”

When asked about Thomas’ comments on vindication and evidence for earlier allegations, Laydon repeated that “we have very different perspectives about those challenges.”

“However, I am pleased that we have made strides to address them as the public expects,” he said.

“Professionally and internally as a board.”
