14th annual Ron King ride takes to streets

By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com A total of 71 bikes revved their engines in unison at the Robert A. Christensen Justice Center in Castle Rock, bringing Julie Widmer to tears.

The 14th annual Blue Thunder Ride Benefit and Poker Run, ridden in honor of Widmer’s stepfather, Douglas County Sheriff’s Deputy Ron King, is part celebration of life/part fundraiser for Douglas County children.

“It took me a long time before I was able to participate in a ride,” said Widmer. “I would see a motorcycle and think of him, think of how he died. But once I got on the back of (a bike) and was surrounded by family and by people all here for the same reason I am, it really calmed me down a lot.

This year’s ride was Aug. 18 and it wound from Castle Rock to Monument, east into Black Forest and north to Kiowa.

The event raised $2,600 for the Ron King Organization’s scholarship fund as well as financial aid money to help select area high school students pay for things like school supplies, athletic fees and instruments.

King was killed in the line of duty 14 years ago after being hit by a drunk driver. Finishing up his shift, King was riding

Tom Vondra spoke Aug. 18 in Castle Rock before the start of the 14th annual Blue Thunder Ride Benefit and Poker Run, ridden in honor of fallen Douglas County Sheriff’s Deputy Ron King. his motorcycle south on U.S. 85 back to the station when a van pulled out of The Matchbox Bar — which has since been leveled — and plowed into him and his partner, Chris Washburn, who was riding with him.

Washburn, now a sergeant with the department, wound up in the ICU requir-

ing reconstructive surgery. King was pronounced dead at the scene.

One of the first D.A.R.E. officers with the department, King had dedicated his life to helping people make the right choices when it came to using drugs and alcohol and getting behind the wheel, something that made his death that much harder for many.

“Someone like Ron that gave so much to the community, trying to take care of our youth and trying to mentor and educate them on right and wrong and how to grow up and be a good citizen, to be stricken down by a guy who was abusing alcohol, it’s like something you see in a movie,” said Sheriff David A. Weaver.

What has come out of King’s death is perhaps the feel-good ending to a tragic film.

Each year, law enforcement and members of the community alike come together on their bikes for the memorial ride to help pay it forward to area youth. Last year, part of the proceeds also went to help the family of fallen Englewood police officer Jeremy Bitner, who, similar to King, was killed in the line of duty by a drunk driver.

“I would love to have more community members come out. That is who we are supporting is their kids,” Widmer said. “I know there are a ton of people out there with bikes. I want to give them a reason to ride and come support something good.”

A new sign code that would allow marquees and murals, signs that appear to move, signs with lights, strings of light bulbs, freestanding signs, signs on roofs — all things currently prohibited — got an initial OK from Castle Rock Town Council Aug. 6 on first reading.

The marquee sign on Denver’s circa-1914 Bluebird Theater, 3317 E. Colfax Ave, was an example of an old-time sign allowed in the new code.

Town staff explained the new code is the result of a two-year effort by town staff, various business organizations and other residents and groups to come up with something that encourages creativity while maintaining the historical character of downtown — while also enticing customers to businesses while also making it a “pedestrian-friendy” charming place to be. “(The new code) will encourage creativity by allowing a broader range of styles and materials,” said Mary Shaw, Castle Rock’s zoning manager.

Not everything is considered creative and desirable, however. Prohibited in the new sign code are inflatable signs, portable flashing roof signs, aerosol spray-painted signs, except murals, and any signs that emit sound.

“The team felt there may be a sign that emits sound that could scare someone,” Shaw said. “The team was sort of torn half and half whether or not that should be listed as a sign type that was prohibited.”

The effort to update the town’s sign code began in 2010 with the goal being to “ensure higher-quality development” in the downtown area, while creating regulations that “encourage creative signage… in line with the downtown master plan,” Shaw said.

In answer to council questions, Shaw said that sandwich-board signs would be allowed.

Shaw added that signs held by human sign twirlers aren’t addressed in the code because “we don’t have the authority to regulate that type of signage.”

Castle Rock Councilmember Clark Hammelman said sign codes “are always very controversial… whatever sign code we adopt, it’s not going to make everybody happy.”

But he said he believes the new code is a product of a “of a lot of good work, compromise and negotiation.”

“I hope the community … accepts it in that spirit,” Hammelman said.

Castle Rock Councilmember Chip Wilson said he appreciated “all the time, the effort” by those creating the code and moved to approve it. Second reading will take place at a future council meeting.

Go ahead, help make someone’s day They stand on a corner, three teenage girls in colorful summer dresses, their hands held high and clutching posterboards in neon green and pink scrawled with cheery messages: “Find the good.”

“Smile - U - matter.”

“Stay positive.”

“Honk if you’re happy.”

And many drivers do, creating an intermittent cacophony of horns of varying timbres and tempos. The girls respond with wide smiles and spirited fist pumps.

Kinzi Kuhloie gives a thumbs-up as one driver leans on the horn repeatedly in a long series of honks. “Yeah!” she says excitedly. “They’re really pumped!”

Kinzi is 17 and she’s been sign-holding, as she calls it, for two years. Her motivation is uncomplicated.

“Life can get overwhelming and so many things can build up that you don’t find the good,” she says. “This reminds you to look for the good . . . and remember that it’s there.”

Kinzi and her friends, Alyssa Hayne, 16, and Emily VonDongen, 19, have hit the streets in Highlands Ranch with their signs about twice a week this summer. The positive response, they say, keeps them coming back.

“We’re making people happy,” Alyssa says, “one sign at a time.”

•••

Kinzi, Alyssa and Emily are part of a growing grassroots crusade to spread positive thinking. She got the idea from a good friend, a student at Mesa State University in Grand Junction, who started a club to

promote positivity by holding signs.

In Anacortes, Wash., in May 2012, the Happiness Sprinkling Project was born when people gathered at a popular intersection and held signs saying “You are loved” and “Yes oh Yes.” The movement to “sprinkle happiness” through sign-holding events has since spread to 20 cities and two countries, according to its website.

Last year, in Washington, D.C., a 29-year-old man campaigned to make people smile by standing at street corners with friends holding posterboards declaring “Honk if you love someone,” “Be happy” and “Don’t be so hard on yourself.”

Passersby loved them back.

These spontaneous, informal events fit neatly into the emerging field of positive psychology and the study of happiness. Instead of trying to figure out why we feel sad or depressed, positive psychology focuses instead on how we can become happier and more fulfilled.

The world-renowned founder of positive psychology, Dr. Martin Seligman, directs the Positive Psychology Center at the University of Pennsylvania. (You can take the free authentic happiness test on the center’s website at www.authentichap-

piness.sas.upenn.edu/Default.aspx.)

He contends that happiness can be analyzed into three measurable elements —positive emotion, engagement and meaning — and that the ultimate goal is to reach a state of well-being.

What Kinzi and her friends are doing may not be earth-shattering in terms of establishing lasting happiness, but creating moments that make us smile or laugh or lift our spirits can make a difference that matters.

Kateri McRae, an assistant professor at the University of Denver who researches emotions, notes that studies show our brains are wired in a way that tune in more quickly to negative information.

“Evolutionarily, negative information is usually more critical to deal with — and to deal with quickly — and so our brains process negative information a little bit faster,” she says. For instance, “If we discover there is something that wants to eat us out there, (the brain tells us) we should run as fast as possible.”

Our brains hone in rapidly on causes of negative emotion, too.

“We tend to pick out a `frownie’ face out of a sea of smiling faces pretty quickly,” McRae says. “Negative emotions can even further narrow our attention and . . . remind us of other negative things,” generating a feedback loop that keeps circulating unhappy feelings.

But those same reinforcing effects manifest themselves with positive emotion also.

“Being in a positive mood tends to make you more aware of the more positive things around you,” McRae says. “Remember-

ing positive things tends to remind you of other positive things.”

What Kinzi and her friends are doing, McRae says, can be clinically described as “benefit-finding” — encouraging people to look for the hidden benefits in life — a component of many therapeutic interventions.

“You never know what is going to send somebody up, flip around a downward spiral into an upward spiral,” McRae says.

“There is potential a sign could do that. My best guess would be that it helps a small portion of the people who drive by. You never know what’s going to turn someone’s day around. . . . Sometimes, you just need a reminder.”

•••

For Kinzi and her friends, much happiness comes from making others happy.

Yes, there have been people who flip them off or yell “You suck!” as they drive by. Kinzi’s reaction: “It’s really unfortunate you guys think that way, but you need the love the most.”

But by and far, reaction is overwhelmingly positive.

Fin “Some guy pulled over last week and will gave us $20,” Kinzi says. “He said, `You deserve some lunch.’ That was cool.”

County hits No. 20 on CNN Money list ‘Where the jobs are’ is key in recognition of area

By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com With an unemployment rate down to 5.8 percent, companies moving in at an unprecedented level, weekly wages higher than anywhere else in Colorado, and Sterling Ranch in the on-deck circle, it should come as no surprise that Douglas County cracked CNN Money’s Top 25 list for “where the jobs are” this past week.

Ranking counties for job growth between the years of 2010 and 2012, Douglas County came in at No. 20 on the list, boasting a 9.1 percent uptick in growth over the three-year time period. Broomfield County, the only other Colorado county on the list, came in at No. 15, having demonstrated a

9.7 percent growth in jobs.

The list, published Aug. 12, praised Douglas County for “building up businesses and building out homes,” while mentioning new arrivals such as TriZetto, Visa and Redwood Trust as well as the recently-approved Sterling Ranch development for creating hundreds of jobs each across a wide spectrum of trades.

Repella A lot of those specific jobs haven’t even arrived in the county yet, something Douglas County Commissioner Jill Repella has been quick to point out. That may represent further proof that many of the existing companies in the county have been able to increase their number of employees, while construction jobs have poured in as well.

Other recent arrivals such as Hitachi in Inverness, Cabela’s and Charles Schwab in Lone Tree and new hospitals in Castle Rock and Highlands Ranch have also contributed to the economy, bringing in temporary construction jobs and thousands of new positions around the county.

While the new hospitals relate directly to the continued growth of the county, Repella recently said the way in which the county altered how it did business once the recession hit is a driving factor in why the county is doing so well economically.

“Four years ago, we knew we were facing a very, very different time in the history of Douglas County,” she said. “We had to change how we interacted with the business community and really create a very business friendly culture.”

The result, she said, has created an “upward spiral” that has continuously helped land large corporations as word has spread

on how the county bends over backward to speed up the permit process and listens to the needs and desires of interested businesses.

Earlier this month CNN Money also recognized the Douglas County town of Parker when it named it the No. 12 “best place to live,” while ranking the top 50 towns with populations of less than 50,000. In 2012, when communities of 50,000 to 100,000 were measured, Castle Rock came in at No. 17 and Highlands Ranch at No. 21.

Leading the 2013 list for job growth was Columbia County, Ga., boasting a 14 percent increase in jobs from 2010-12. Columbia was one of two Georgia counties on the list, with Gwinnett placing ninth. Joining Colorado and Georgia with two counties in the Top 25 were Texas, Virginia, Florida, Utah, Alabama and Tennessee.

Coroner’s effort to get DNA in cold case works Fingerprints of victim will enter FBI database

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com The hands of an exhumed body, buried near the body in a sealed plastic bag, have become an essential tool that might result in the future identification of the murdered teenaged female found 20 years ago in southwest Douglas County near Rainbow Falls Campground.

“We were thrilled,” said Douglas County Coroner Lora Thomas about recent lab results.

Thomas’ staff was able to rehydrate the skin in the hands and now there are usable

fingerprints, which will be added to the FBI’s database. In addition, the University of Northern Texas, using samples from the hands, have been able to obtain a complete DNA profile of the person.

Thomas said that she decided to exhume the body — which occurred in 2012 at Castle Rock’s Cedar Hill Cemetery where the girl is Thomas buried under the name “Jane Doe” — because of the many technological advances that have occurred since her murder.

After it was exhumed, there was initial disappointment because the bones expected to reveal DNA information when tested

at the University of Northern Texas were too damaged by water that had seeped into the grave, according to a coroner news release.

But Thomas said a breakthrough happened when Douglas County Chief Deputy Coroner Jill Romann realized the hands were found in a separate and sealed plastic bag, and so there was the possibility that ground water may not have destroyed the DNA. Romann mailed samples from the hands to the university and the coroner’s office was notified recently the lab had been successful. And so Jane Doe’s DNA profile now has been entered into a couple of databases including the university’s and the FBI’s.

The unidentified girl, found near a campground, between Woodland Park and Deckers off of State Highway 67, was 5 feet 7 inches tall, 150 pounds, had shoulder-

length brown hair, and investigators believe she had died within the previous 72 hours.

The girl was wearing a Harley-Davidson T-shirt and metal and stone jewelry. Investigators believe she was between 16 and 19 years old.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office has declined to release her cause of death, citing the ongoing investigation. The case was closed without naming a suspect.

She remains the county’s only unidentified murder victim, and Thomas hopes to change that.

“Everybody has family,” Thomas said in a past interview. “If one of your children disappeared and you never knew what happened to them, how would you feel? We’re just trying to figure out who she is in hopes we can tell her family where she is.”

Former mayor raises $45K for cancer Shul’s foundation helps fund research

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ ourcoloradonews.com A foundation started by Castle Pines’ first mayor, Maureen Shul, recently gave a $45,000 check to the University of Colorado Cancer Center to help support pancreatic cancer research.

Shul lost her mother and brother to pancreatic cancer within months of each other and later established a foundation called Wings of Hope for Pancreatic Cancer Research.

“Wings of Hope is committed to raising awareness of the pancreatic cancer research and treatments taking place at the CU Cancer Center,” said Shul.

“We are also committed to mak-

ing sure people know the specific pancreatic cancer research programs their donations are helping to support.”

She said the money was raised at an April event at Parker’s The Wildlife Experience, where her brother, Brian Shul, a U.S. Air Force pilot, had been a guest speaker.

“We had a sell-out event, which resulted in our being able to present $45,000 to the University of Colorado Cancer Center,” she said.

But that’s not the end. “We are working on our next events, one of which will include climbing a ‘fourteener’ to raise funds,” she said. Dr. Colin Weekes, who accepted the check, is an oncologist and an investigator at the cancer center.

Weekes said currently there are few treatment options for these patients. The donation will

be used to advance the development of targeted therapies by identifying the genetic biomarkers in pancreatic cancer tumors.

“The donation from Wings of Hope will help us advance the discovery and development of therapies that may improve the outlook for people diagnosed with this type of cancer.”

Shul, who led the effort to incorporate Castle Pines, was elected its first mayor in 2007 and served as mayor and then on council until 2012.

Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States and is projected to rise to the second leading cause by 2020, according to information from Shul.

It is estimated that 43,000 Americans are diagnosed each year with pancreatic cancer, with 74 percent not surviving beyond 12 months.

Cabela’s grand opening draws about 5,000 Hunters, campers and curious gather to formally open Lone Tree store

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com

Parker resident Joe Folmar and Elizabeth’s Chris Alward suffered through a cold, windy Wednesday night in the Lone Tree Cabela’s parking lot. Thursday morning, that earned them spots near the front of a line a few-thousand-people in length.

“We slept in our lawn chairs, tucked into a little ball,” Folmar said. “It was probably about 50 degrees with 30 mph winds. I think it’s worth it. Now, it’s just what kinda goodies are we going to get?”

Cabela’s gave gift cards in varying amounts — one for $500 — to the first 500 people in line for the Lone Tree store’s Aug. 15 grand opening.

Campers started showing up at the store Aug. 13, store officials said. By the time the doors opened at 11 a.m., they estimated 5,000 people were waiting in a line that stretched all the way around the 110,000-square-foot building. seAnother 5,000 more gathered several wn miles north at the Thornton store, which opened simultaneously. Lone Tree’s store, ro- at 110,000 square feet, is slightly larger ons: than Thornton’s, and even surpasses the l 85,000-square-foot Sydney, Neb., store in and size. r Most in line said they were longtime Cabela’s customers, many of whom previously h of had made the long journey to the Sydney 6 store. Cabela’s is headquartered in Sydney. of Some were hunters, some campers and some just curious. or“I think we mainly came because it’s fun nty. to people watch,” said Golden resident Kerry Bostwick. “This is really fun. Everyone is so laid back.”

“I’m excited to look at the clothing and shoes and not have to guess at the size,” said Littleton’s Randy Alldridge, who in the past was a Cabela’s catalog shopper.

Rock music blasted across the parking lot, and cart-pushing Cabela’s employees doled out water bottles and doughnuts to the waiting customers.

While tour buses deposited customers at the back of the store and the overflow parking lot at Havana Street and RidgeGate Parkway threatened to overflow, store employees rallied inside. Football in hand, Cabela’s regional retail manager Diane Uhlenkamp revved up the more than 200 staff members and corporate visitors crowded inside the store’s massive main hall.

“It’s Super Bowl time,” she said. “It’s gonna be big from here on out. Take great care of those folks out there because that’s what we’re here for.”

“This has been (founder) Dick Cabela’s dream — to have a store in Denver,” Cabela’s COO Michael Copeland said, adding the opening of two stores simultaneously exceeded that vision. “We’ve already set some records this week. I don’t know what they put in the water in Denver.”

Copeland led employees in a cheer, asking, “Who are we?”

“Lone Tree, Lone Tree, Mile High Great,” the staff roared in return.

Moments before the doors opened, store, county and city officials addressed the huge crowd, most of whom were so far from the doors, they couldn’t hear the speeches.Cabela’s is “a perfect complement to the world-class retail we have down here,” said Lone Tree Mayor Jim Gunning, urging the crowd to remember the day was a celebration of Cabela’s. “So when you walk in, don’t be stingy.”

County Commissioner Jack Hilbert took Gunning’s advice to heart. An avid outdoorsman, Hilbert said he spent about $1,000 during a preview event at the store and another $100 on opening day.

“This is fantastic,” he said. “You don’t see a grand opening in Douglas County like this.”

“Awesome,” County Commissioner Jill Repella agreed. “I’m extremely proud. The site exceeded my expectations, the store exceeded my expectations, the grand opening exceeded my expectations.”

Archer Trevon Stoltzfus shot an arrow through a ribbon at the Lone Tree Cabela’s to signal the store’s Aug. 15 opening.

Thousands of people waited in line the morning of Aug. 15 in anticipation of Cabela’s opening its doors.

Candidate roster changes as election draws closer Field narrows in one race on concerns surrounding split vote

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com To avoid a potential split vote during the November school board election, one Douglas County School Board candidate already has dropped out of the race. Others may soon follow.

Stephen Boyd, of Larkspur, who’d filed his intention to seek the District D seat, said he won’t move forward with his campaign.

His decision followed contact from board opponents and Douglas County Republicans.

“I don’t want to split the vote, and I met with people who I think have a better chance of winning,” Boyd said, adding he most likely will support Julie Keim for the slot.

“So I don’t mind backing off and letting them go.”

Lynne Butler, a vocal opponent of the current board, said several individuals aiming for major change on the board spoke with candidates in crowded races about narrowing the field.

“If we can flip the board, we will raise morale and bring back the focus into our classrooms,” she said. “But there’s no way to do it unless you have one candidate.”

Butler and others don’t want to see a repeat of 2011, when they believe a split vote between two

like-minded candidates put board member Craig Richardson on top.

Richardson won with almost 46 percent of the District A vote. Susan Meek and Kevin Reilly combined for 54 percent.

“It’s my opinion people will not make the same mistake again,” Butler said.

Chairman Craig Steiner said Douglas County Republicans aren’t asking anyone to step down.

The local party interviewed candidates and is endorsing a slate of Republicans who, like the existing board, support education reform.

“We did send out some followup questions basically saying, `If you are not endorsed, will you consider withdrawing and endorsing our candidate?’” Steiner said. “We certainly aren’t telling them not to run, we’re just asking them if they’d be willing to do that.”

Nick Land, a 2013 graduate of Chaparral High School who is running against incumbent Meghann Silverthorn and Ronda Scholting in District G, also has been encouraged to reconsider his campaign, Butler said. Land did not return calls or emails requesting comment.

Scholting, who opposes much of the current board’s actions, said she’s focused on her campaign.

“I think there’s some concern when you have a whole lot of choices,” she said. “You always hope folks are educated, and have an idea who’s going to be best for the schools.”

Keim, who questions the district’s current direction, said she and the other District D candidates have talked about the race.

“But there’s no grand plan,” she said. “We know from past experience what does or does not need to happen. It’s a matter of us working that out among ourselves.”

Board member Carrie Mendoza now holds the District D seat; she has not yet filed to run for her seat.

Other District D candidates include Kevin Leung, John Peterson and Judi Reynolds.

Both local Republicans and board opponents believe they need to win all four seats.

Douglas County Parents, a community group whose goal is to elect four new board members, said they are not actively working to narrow the candidate field.

“While Douglas County Parents will endorse candidates, we have no influence over who will or will not run,” steering committee member Laura Welch said. “Once candidates are announced, we will research who best supports public education and will meet the needs of all our children.”

Three candidates also are running in District B for the seat now occupied by term-limited president John Carson.

District E incumbent Doug Benevento so far is unopposed.

To be on the fall ballot, each candidate must by Aug. 30 submit a petition with 50 signatures to the Colorado Secretary of State.

Douglas County Republicans endorse school candidates Party backs two incumbents, two others for positions that are legally nonpartisan

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews. com The Douglas County Republicans are endorsing incumbents Doug Benevento and Meghann Silverthorne, along with Judi Reynolds and James Geddes in November’s school board election.

Like Benevento, Silverthorn and the rest of the current Douglas County School District board, Geddes and Reynolds are Republicans.

Geddes, a University of Colorado regent, seeks the District B seat now occupied by termlimited board president John Carson.

The Sedalia resident is a surgeon who practices in both the Denver area and Summit County. Reynolds, recorder for DCSD’s District Accountability Committee, and a Castle Rock resident, is running for the District D seat, now occupied by Carrie Mendoza.

Mendoza, of Castle Pines, was appointed to the post

in March after former board member Dan Gerken resigned.

Reynolds was a finalist for the appointment.

Though Mendoza has not made a statement about her candidacy, she also has not filed a candidate affidavit with the Colorado Secretary of State.

The local party voted on its endorsements Aug. 17 after weeks of candidate interviews, and months of recruitment.

The chosen candidates are those “most likely to support the principles of the Republican Party,” local party chairman Craig Steiner said. They’re also those most likely to support the current board’s push for education reform.

Colorado state statutes prohibit a school board candidate from running “as a candidate of any political party,” and political affiliation is not included on the ballot.

But they can campaign as a party member.

The Douglas County Republicans endorsed the seven current board members in the 2009 and 2011 elections.

crime briefs Vehicle tresspasses continue

Four vehicle trespasses were reported in Douglas County between the dates of Aug. 5 and Aug. 7. Two of the incidents occurred in Highlands Ranch, on the 10000 block of Silver Maple Circle and the 2600 block of E. County Line Road. In both incidents backpacks were stolen from the cars, one of which possessed a laptop computer.

There were no signs of forced entry in the Silver Maple incident, but a passenger window was broken in the E. County Line Road incident.

A resident on the 16100 block of Blue Bonnet Drive in Parker accidentally left their garage door open overnight on Aug. 5, and both vehicles — which had the

keys left inside them — were rummaged through and credit cards, cash and a $1,200 Nikon camera were missing the following morning. The victim said he felt lucky the cars were not stolen as well.

In the fourth vehicle trespass, a customer at the Western Convenience Store at 800 S. Wilcox St. in Castle Rock left his car unlocked while he went inside to buy a cup of coffee around 7:15 p.m. Aug. 7. When he returned he was missing a $100 laptop bag and a $600 laptop computer. There is no camera on the parking lot and no suspect information was available.

Missing rings an issue

Two recent moves in Douglas County

resulted in missing rings. In one incident a woman who moved into Wind Crest Retirement Community in Highlands Ranch with the help of a moving company, noticed that three of her rings were missing from a box after she got settled. When she called the moving company, they said they would not help her with her claims of missing rings, but would replace the furniture they damaged in the move. The victim has since filed an insurance claim, and created a report with the sheriff’s office on Aug. 6.

Another woman, who moved from Castle Rock to the 1200 block of Hoosier Drive in Larkspur this summer, filed a report on Aug. 7 after $1,350 of gold necklaces and a bracelet turned up missing within a week

of her move.

Castle Pines home egged ... again

A home on the 200 block of Huntley Court in Castle Pines has been egged twice in a matter of weeks. The victim reported the second incident to the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office after about five eggs were thrown at the side of his home, damaging a screen around 11 p.m. Aug. 6 and startling his wife. The house was also hit on July 27 around midnight when seven eggs were thrown at a front window, breaking another screen. The victim is unsure who would be doing this, but said the car peeling out Van after the incidents had a “low-sounding city muffler.”

Funeral Facts

J.R. Pinon Olinger Andrews Caldwell Gibson Chapel

Q. What is the best piece of advice you would give someone about funerals?

A. Very simply: be prepared. I don’t mean merely expect to have a funeral, but to plan yours in advance – and in detail – with the help of a professional.

The most difficult thing we see is families who are not prepared for the loss of a loved one.

The surviving family members are forced to create a plan while they mourn, which can make an emotional situation worse. After all, there are over a hundred questions that need to be answered before a funeral can take place. That’s a lot to think about when you should be focused on coming together as a family.

A lot of times, this difficulty prompts surviving family members to make plans for themselves, so they can spare their own loved ones from the added grief they just went through.

If I could give a single piece of advice, this is what I would recommend to anyone. A plan can help your loved ones cope with the loss far better, allowing them to focus on what’s most important. We offer a free planning guide to help you complete this process, which you can then file with your funeral home so it’s ready when you need it.

Jerald “J. R.” Pinon is the Location Manager at Olinger Andrews Caldwell Gibson Chapel, a member of the Dignity Memorial® network serving the Castle Rock community. He frequently offers funeral-related advice and counseling to area families. For information or to ask a question, contact J. R. at 303-688-3191.

erGovernor touts school-finance reform tax hike Rally brings out supporters, detractors of possible ballot measure

By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com

Gov. John Hickenlooper gave a fullthroated endorsement of a school-finance reform tax hike at a Lakewood rally on Aug. 15, marking the beginning of a campaign behind what’s expected to be the most significant ballot question voters will decide on this fall.

Hickenlooper was joined by other education-reform advocates at a Green Mountain High School rally that drew more than 100 supporters of an initiative that will create $950 million in new taxes that will fund an overhaul of the Colorado school-finance system.

“I refer to this all the time as the single most comprehensive education-reform initiative in the history of the United States,” Hickenlooper said. “With this initiative, we’re building a public education system that’s going to serve as a model for the rest of the United States.”

By passing Initiative 22 this fall, taxpayers would fund full-day kindergarten for all Colorado children and would provide more support for at-risk students and English learners. The initiative also aims to reduce class sizes and provide greater funding equality for school districts across the state.

Hickenlooper was joined at the rally by other supporters of the Colorado Commits to Kids campaign. They included Jefferson County Schools Superintendent Cindy Stevenson, who said that “an additional 3,000 5-year-olds will have free full-day kindergarten” in the county, and that at least 1,000 at-risk Jeffco children will have access to free preschool, if the initiative passes.

Colorado Lt. Gov. Joe Garcia echoed Stevenson’s call to pass the ballot measure, saying, “We know that not all kids enter school on equal footing.”

“But if we want all kids to graduate and all be ready for higher education we need wice to be sure we can provide the level of indied vidualized support that not all districts can unty afford to offer,” Garcia said.

Initiative 22 would raise taxes on all Colre ng a orado taxpayers. The two-tiered proposal ling 27 e othuld out Van Wormer comes to g

would raise income taxes to 5 percent on everyone earning $75,000 or less. Those who earn over that amount would pay 5 percent on the first $75,000 in taxable income and 5.9 percent on taxable income above $75,000.

Colorado’s current income tax rate is a flat 4.63 percent, regardless of income level.

Hickenlooper said that Colorado is one of the lowest-taxed states in the country and will remain so, even if the initiative passes.

But opponents of Initiative 22 were quick to jump on Hickenlooper’s comments.

“I think it’s interesting that the governor comes to the county that will get the least return on its investment,” said Jefferson County Schools Board of Education member Laura Boggs, who attended Hickenlooper’s speech.

Boggs says that Jefferson County taxpayers will pay at least $130 million in taxes, but that the school district will only get about $60 million in funding if the ballot initiative passes.

Castle Pines hires new manager city from Monte Vista

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com Don Van Wormer, the current city manager of Monte Vista, will start work as Castle Pines’ new city manager Oct. 7.

After a several-month process involving candidates from across the country, the council found their new manager close to home.

“Good community relations are key for effective government, and something very important to me,” said Castle Pines Council Member Tera Radloff. “I was looking for a candidate that would exceed our citizens’ expectations for maintaining positive relationships with them, our community organizations, staff and council.

“We did an extensive, 360-degree approach in our interview process and Don was very engaged with everyone at every level and step of the process.”

Van Wormer, who will be responsible for the day-to-day supervision and management of the city, expressed excitement in an Aug. 15 interview about living and working

in Castle Pines.

“There’s so much opportunity out there,” he said, a word he uses often when describing Castle Pines.

When he toured Castle Pines with Sam Bishop, the city’s community development director, he said he was thinking “opportunity, opportunity, opportunity.” He said this community, with all its open space, has the opportunity to create its own vision instead of trying to Van Wormer retrofit its vision like many communities with existing downtowns to redevelop.

He has about 20 years experience in the field: first as manager for Hinsdale County, then was Kremmling’s manager, and then Monte Vista’s. He said if there’s a pattern to what he’s left behind, it’s that, “I’ve always left the community in better shape than when I came.”

Van Wormer, whose salary will be $105,000 annually, is looking for housing opportunities in Castle Pines. He will move here with his wife, Karen Van Wormer. They have two grown children who live out of state and three grandchildren.

children, if this passes, are worth less than 50 cents on the dollar,” she said. “I find that interesting.”

Curtis Hubbard, of the Colorado Commits to Kids campaign, countered Boggs, saying that the initiative will result in more than $600 in per-pupil funding for students in Jefferson County, “which is an investment that we believe taxpayers will support.”

Across the street from the rally, a small group of Initiative 22 opponents attacked the “ostensible reforms” that will occur if the ballot question passes. But mainly, they argued that Coloradans “won’t have the appetite for this type of tax increase.”

“It’s just more money going into a bloated system that’s failing,” said Kelly Maher, a coalition member of Coloradans for Real Education Reform, the campaign that’s fighting against the initiative.

“We need to reform the system first before we increase taxes on Colorado families.”

Initiative 22 ballot organizers claim to have turned in more than 160,000 signatures of registered voters, nearly double the 86,105 needed to qualify for this fall’s ballot.

However, the secretary of state’s office announced the day after the rally that it will have to review the signatures line by line to determine whether the measure makes the ballot. That’s because the verification of a random sample of petition signatures fell into a range that requires such a review.

The secretary of state’s office has until Sept. 4 to complete its review.

opinions / yours and ours

Local politics better without partisanship Across Colorado, budding candidates for city and town councils and school boards are wrapping up the process of gathering signatures for their nomination petitions. These citizens are working to get their names on the ballot for this November’s election, and ultimately, they are trying to win a spot on an elected board that comes with little or no pay.

Voters will pick from among these candidates without a party affiliation listed for the candidates.

Further, a search for candidate information on the Secretary of State’s Tracer website yields the term “nonpartisan” next to the category “party.” Indeed, these are officially nonpartisan elections they are hoping to compete in.

But don’t be fooled: There are parti-

our view san races being waged for municipal and school board offices in this state. Colorado law does not prohibit a candidate from campaigning as a Republican, Democrat, Libertarian or member of any other party.

In other words, a candidate can tout that he or she is a member of a certain party, secure that party’s endorsement and even run among a slate of candidates looking to grab or maintain power for that party on an elected board. And voters who have been paying attention are not likely

to need a party affiliation listed on their ballots to know who represents Team Blue or Team Red or Team Other.

While it is not illegal, we believe this process violates the spirit of election law.

The real spirit of serving on a city council or a school board, as we wrote in an editorial last month, should be a noble calling to public service — to make a community better. It is not promoting the platform of a major, national political organization.

We believe local politics should be about people, not parties.

It is particularly a shame when partisanship rears up to narrow the pool of candidates in an attempt to prevent votes from being split. Sure, when a party encourages someone not to run, it is a pragmatic move in that it increases the likelihood of

achieving a victory. But it also suppresses diversity of thought and likely keeps some very well-intentioned, capable citizens from public service.

Don’t get us wrong. We’re not saying every local campaign has been taken over by partisanship. Just too many — regardless of what that number is.

For now, we encourage candidates who feel a true calling to serve to stick with it.

There’s nothing wrong with being a member of a political party, but if you are truly dedicated to helping the community, don’t let your affiliation dictate whether you will seek office. If you win, don’t let it determine how you will serve.

Come November, we encourage voters to simply choose the best person for the job.

Make healthy homework a habit

Something is hiding under the bed I have just returned from periodontal surgery and I am in no mood to labor my thoughts, but I have a deadline to meet, so I am going to plow forward with something. I may wander. I am still on painkillers.

Most people are afraid of the dentist. In fact, in some polls, going to the dentist is No. 1 on the list of things we fear most. It’s always one, or two, behind public speaking.

Snakes, flying, and Rachel Ray round out the top five.

See what I mean? I’m daft.

I don’t fear the dentist. I should get a room in his office. I have had surgery and extractions and root canals. I had cavities drilled when I was a kid before Novocaine. I don’t recommend it.

Maybe you read “A Million Little Pieces,” James Frey’s Oprah mess that has a chapter about oral surgery without an anesthetic.

It’s a lie, but it’s vivid.

I had a lot of dental care without an anesthetic, so being numbed now is a blessing, even though it seems like dental care in my life has been non-stop.

But it isn’t the dentist that I am afraid of.

I thought I would give you my list, while I am still comfortably numb.

And it’s all nonsense. Or drivel. Your next assignment is to read Pure Drivel. Steve Martin.

All right, here’s my list, what scares me.

Country music. Joel Osteen. Flo. Nancy Grace. Pop Tarts. Lunchables.

Pat Robertson. Wayne LaPierre. Postconsumerism. The Dewey Decimal System.

Discount sushi. Transparency. Kierkegaard.

Buffalo Bob. Bologna. Kittens. This one is too easy, he scares everyone: Richard Simmons.

Family Feud. Kate Spade purses. Cosmopolitan. Gene Simmons. Paula Deen. Chaz Dean.

Parakeets. Viagra commercials. ABBA. Guys and Dolls. Emoticons. Light jazz.

Non-dairy whitener. Plug-in air fresheners.

Joseph Prince.

Mississippi. Black Friday. Wind chimes.

Suncatchers. Perfume. Craig Ferguson.

Bowling shirts. John Travolta’s hair color.

Chick-fil-A. Spencer’s.

Shepard Smith. Misty May-Treanor. Kerri Walsh Jennings. Marie Callender’s. Aunt Jemima. Betty Crocker. Uncle Ben’s. Martha

Stewart. The View. This one is too easy too: Anthony D. Weiner. Florida’s Division of Elections. Speed trap on Yale between I-25 and Colorado Boulevard. The Sixth Step.

Fajitas, Mojitos. Carly Rae Jepsen. Hallmark cards. Sigfried and Roy. Pinky Lee. Crocs. Skip Bayless. Dinger. Buddy Hackett.

Aimee Semple Mcpherson.

Hamburger Helper. Brent Musburger.

Lower back tattoos. Flavor Flav.

Jimmy Dean sausage patties. Texas politicians. Chuck E. Cheese. Chuck Norris.

It’s a long list and it’s getting longer all the time. It’s crazy out there, man.

When I was a kid, my biggest fear was skeletons that were alive and running around. I would have nightmares and go climb in bed with my mother and father. I am sure they loved that.

Years later in a film class at UCLA, I watched Georges Méliès’ A Trip to the Moon and there they were: lots and lots of living skeletons running around like maniacs.

Turbulence. Chinese talapia. Top Ramen.

PT Cruisers. Olive Garden’s Never Ending Pasta Bowl. Peep toe wedges. Flip-flops on my insurance agent. Dulcolax.

Marilyn Monroe said, “Fear is stupid. So are regrets.” She’s right, but it’s a tough call.

The past is always ready to visit me, reminders are on stand-by.

It takes work to look forward, otherwise I am dragged at the ankles by something I can’t change. There is one place I can go where I have no fears at all, and even though it’s just off of the dining room, it took years and years to get there. I was fearful I would never make it. My studio.

There is one final fear. Sometimes I scare myself. To be honest, I kind of like it.

Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast.net

One of the questions my kids dreaded throughout their education was when I would ask this, “Do you have any homework tonight?” Of course they hated that question, I hated it too when I was growing up and my mother would ask me the very same thing.

Well it’s that time of year again when kids of all ages are settling back into the school routine and homework will be inevitable. And I think that many students get uncomfortable about the question because they would much prefer to say that there was no homework assigned or just a very little bit so that they can spend time with friends and doing anything other than their assignments.

At the end of the day the only person who really suffers is the student. Surely as parents we agonize over it a little too, but we can only do so much in the way of accountability. The student has to want to succeed and be an active participant in their own learning and growth.

Homework is perceived as a “thing” that has to get done, when at the end of the day it’s really about work ethic and attitude.

Homework is a behavior that drives success whether we are in school, at work, or trying to grow personally or professionally.

You see, we can’t manage results, we can only manage behaviors. And it is in our school days that we develop this work ethic and positive habits that will propel us in our future endeavors.

Anyone reading this column can probably look back at a time when you or your child procrastinated or just avoided a homework assignment or maybe a few consecutive assignments. The outcome was that we fell farther behind and playing catch-up was infinitely harder. And we can also look back at a time when we took the time to do the homework, and how amazing it felt when we breezed through a quiz or test. Again, it’s about the behaviors that

deliver results.

And as we fast forward past our school years and evaluate where we are today in our career we can probably point to specific times when we fell behind at work because we didn’t do the little extra things at the end of our day such as planning and preparing, making lists, looking at our goals, or checking off what we had accomplished. When we view this kind of work as productive we can view our homework as being healthy. It’s when we have the attitude that we would rather avoid the behavior of a little extra work that we deprive ourselves of the feeling of accomplishment and we erode our beliefs in our own capabilities and what we can truly achieve.

Learning and growing is something that is a constant part of our entire lives not just during our years of schooling. We should always be “on the grow” as we look to raise the bar a little each and every day.

And healthy homework whether we are a student or enjoying a career is a great way to ensure our future success.

Are you keeping up with your healthy homework? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com and together let’s continue to learn and make this a better-than-good week.

Pastors provide spiritual support I just hired a publicist to help me take my book sales and the Big League message, “Your Life Matters” to more people.

Now I am surprised with the fact that I have a publicist and an agent. It always seemed that rich, famous people were ones with publicists and agents. Now I know that is not always the case.

I also have an accountant that does my taxes and keeps my 501(c)(3) in compliance with the government. My dentist and doctor help me keep my mouth and body healthy. It is quite a team that I have to help me live life and take on challenges that are bigger than I am.

Another important member of “Team Dan” is my pastor. Recently a situation reminded me how important my pastor is to me and what an important part of my life he is. This experience exceeded the normal Sunday sermon, as important as that is.

Each week he seeks to hear from God in a way that is faithful to the Holy Scriptures so that he can bring a message that strengthens the lives of those who listen.

It is not that I need to be told how to live as much as his message so often matches what has been stirring in my spirit because of the challenges of everyday life. When I

hear his message it is a confirmation to me, often expressed in a way that is memorable, of who God is and how important He is to me and my circumstances.

There was a situation at work that troubled me. I was upset and could not find peace as far as what to do. Thankfully I ran into him at a coffee shop. Our relationship began at a coffee shop when the only empty seat on a busy Monday morning was next to him. That suits my lifestyle as I feel like the Lead Pastor at the “St. Arbucks” parish.

I am at the coffee shop so often. He took time to listen to me for a few minutes then offered a perspective that I had not thought of, but was exactly what I needed to hear. I left, thankful that I had such a wise, Godly and caring influence in my life.

Throughout most of my adult life I did not have a pastor — I was the pastor. It was an honor to be called Pastor Dan but that side of the relationship did not give me the vantage point to appreciate the enormity of the contribution of a pastor’s work to the life of a parishioner. As a Hospice chaplain, there are more times when the benefits of my efforts in the lives and circumstances of the recipients are more quickly apparent. It is not easy work to stand with people at the dramatic time of their loved one’s sickness and passing from this life to the next, but it is rewarding to feel the value of my work.

Nearly all of the churches in our town have a priest or pastor. Many have a staff of pastors with specializations. Youth pastors make it possible for students to have a pastor who they can go to with concerns that their youth pastor understands. Pastors of men’s or women’s ministries focus their efforts on subjects and settings that minister to their target audience.

A relatively new specialization that comes in a larger church is a minister of Pastoral Care. Gifts of compassion and insight guide this person to listen, comfort and be present in the lives of the church family during sickness, divorce, traumatic

accidents and problems that are too complicated to share with the general public.

While some Pastors have been derelict in their duties or disappointed their parishioners with ethical or moral failure, the vast majority sacrificially minister so that their congregation receives inspiration, insight and even correction so that God will be real and relevant in the lives of their parishioners.

My taxes are too complicated for me to do them by myself. I can’t work on my teeth or prescribe meds to treat an infection.

I need my dentist and doctor. My agent knew how to get a book published and his expertise benefited me and I hope my publicist will benefit me as much so sales will grow and the message will spread. But not everybody needs a publicist, but everyone needs a pastor and they are all eager to add another parishioner to their care.

Robert D. Fittje

April 13, 1948 - August 14, 2013

Robert D. Fittje, age 65, a former resident of Colorado Springs and currently of Parker, Colorado, went home to the arms of Jesus on August 14, 2013. He was a loving husband, son, brother, father, and grandfather.

Robert Dean Fittje was born on April 13, 1948 in Columbus, Nebraska to Werner L. and Lillian E. (Pearson) Fittje. He was a 1966 graduate of Wasson High School and served his country honorably in the United States Marine Corps for three and a half years. He was a Vietnam Veteran.

He married Ruth C. Erickson on November 1, 1969 in Wahiawa, Hawaii. He co-founded Fittje Brother’s Printing in Colorado Springs with his brother, was a salesman for AB Dick, owned his own franchise of Sir Speedy Printing in Littleton, and for several years owned and operated Twin Pines Printing in his home in Perry Park. He was a member of Faith Lutheran Church in Castle Rock, Colorado and became a Stephen Minister involved in prison ministries. This man of faith was diagnosed with an incurable disease 20 years ago and was active with the Alpha One Foundation.

He will be best remembered as an inspiration of faith and strength to all who knew him.

He is survived by his wife: Ruth of Parker, Colorado; his mother: Lillian Fittje of Colorado Springs; and his four children: Guy (wife, Stephanie) Fittje of Parker; Jason (wife, Elaina) Fittje of Englewood; Michele (husband, Michael) Harrington of Parker; and Jennifer Fittje of Parker.

He is also survived by his two sisters: Mary (husband, Bill) Montie of Colorado Springs; and Kathy (husband, Mark) Rowley of Colorado Springs; and eight wonderful grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his father, Werner, in 2006; his brother, Gerald Fittje, in 1984; and his granddaughter, Brittany, in 2012.

Funeral Services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday, August 20, 2013 at Faith Lutheran Church of Castle Rock, 303 Ridge Road, Castle Rock, Colorado 8104. A reception will immediately follow.

A graveside service with Marine Corps Honors will be held at 2:30 p.m. at Fort Logan National Cemetery in Denver, Staging Area “B”.

Memorials in Bob’s memory may be made to the Alpha One Foundation, 2937 SW 27th Avenue Suite 302, Miami, Florida 33133; or the Denver Hospice, 501 South Cherry Street #700, Denver, Colorado 80246.

Blessed be his memory.

Corps releases final Chatfield study Feds sticking with original plan for reservoir Staff report The public has until Sept. 3 to comment on the final Chatfield Reservoir reallocation study, which was released Aug. 2.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has not changed its stance from the draft study.

To meet the growing need for water in the metro area, it still recommends reallocating 20,600 acre-feet of water from flood control to usable storage. That would raise the water in the recreation area by 12 feet, covering more of the park with water and requiring reconfiguration of the marina and other amenities.

The Corps notes a study by the statewide Water Supply Initiative that estimates Colorado will need between 600,000 and 1 million acre-feet annually of additional municipal and industrial water by the year 2050.

“There is also a strong need for additional water supplies for the agricultural community in the South Platte Basin, as thousands of acres of previously irrigated land has not been farmed in recent years due to widespread irrigation well curtailments,” reads a Corps press release.

The final report outlines three other options but concludes this is the least costly

and has the most local support. It says this option would provide $8.42 million annually in economic benefits, while still acknowledging there could be adverse effects on recreation and the environment that will be

“mitigated to the most sustainable alternative to below a level of significance.”

Gwyn Jarrett, project manager, says the Corps worked extensively with groups like Sierra Club and Audubon Society.

“By working together, the (study) captures and reflects a balance of interests and ultimately proposes the recommended alternative,” she said.

The draft report, published in June 2012, received nearly 1,000 comments from the public.

Last August, Littleton City Council added its support to the project, but with some reservations.

“While Littleton continues to support the Chatfield reallocation project, it is concerned that the (Corps) has not given sufficient consideration to the potential environmental impact that may result under the (plan),” they write. “Specifically, Littleton is concerned that the potential impacts to aquatic and riparian habitat immediately downstream of Chatfield in (South Platte Park) have not been adequately addressed.”

In the final version of the study, the Corps acknowledges downstream flows are a key uncertainty.

“While mitigation and modification plans have been developed … in coordination with resource agencies, there is still a level of concern that implementing a reallocation could lead to a somewhat differ-

South Metro Denver Chamber Announces New Board for 2013-14 The South Metro Denver Chamber has announced the new members of its Board of Directors for the 2013-2014 fiscal year. Made up of business leaders from large corporations, to small one-person businesses, the 25 member board meets monthly to discuss Chamber issues and will officially begin its work on September 1st.

Herm Brocksmith of Kuni Honda will take up the Chair position from Lisa D’Ambrosia of Minor & Brown who will continue serving on the board.

Rick Whipple of WhippleWood CPAs was named as Chair-elect. Other officer positions include Rick Koontz of Wells Fargo Bank continuing to serve as Treasurer and Peter Moore of Polsinelli, PC serving as Legal Counsel. Other Vice Chair positions are: Steve Roper, Roper Insurance - Membership; Jeff Wasden of PROformance Apparel - Public Affairs; and Wendy Nelson, Denver Scholarship Foundation will be the Executive Committee Member at Large.

Chamber President and CEO, John

Brackney is excited to begin working with the new board and appreciates the work of the former board members.

“The South Metro Denver Chamber is rich in tradition for identifying talented leaders who are willing to serve. All of our outgoing and incoming members of the Board of Directors are proven leaders who are committed to serving our community and enhancing the lives of everyone they meet while improving the economy for all, most whom they will never meet. Please join me in thanking them for their volunteer service. Our future will Prosper because of their volunteerism,” said Brackney.

New, incoming board members include: Frederic de Loizaga, CBRE; Andrew Graham, Clinic Service Corporation; Tom Henley, Xcel Energy; Anthony Lambatos, Footers Catering (and 2013 Small Business of the Year award winner); Geoff Lawton, Littleton Adventist Hospital serving as Economic Development Group Vice Chair; Tom Puntel, Hyatt Regency DTC; and Cleve Wortham, FirstBank Arapahoe County serving as Small Business Development Center Vice Chair.

ent condition for which environmental mitigation or recreational facility modification has not been designed appropriately,” reads the study.

It says the water providers are working closely with resource agencies on projects that could pick up where the mitigation efforts leave off.

A statement last summer listed 49 entities supporting the plan, including Denver Water and a host of smaller water districts, several upstream counties and towns, the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority, Shea Homes, some water conservation boards and environmental groups.

The Highlands Ranch Metro District also submitted a letter of support, and the Highlands Ranch Community Association joined them but added some reservations.

It expressed concerns about damages to the environment and recreational amenities in its letter, but Chairman Scott Lemmon said he felt confident that these concerns were being addressed by the Corps.

“I think that the long-term water security for Highlands Ranch far outweighs the 500 acres (of recreational space affected), even though it is a concern,” said board member Brock Norris.

Following the Sept. 3 close of the public comment period, the Corps will submit the report to the assistant secretary of the Army for Civil Works for final approval.

yChess gains fans in Douglas schools

entalInstructor says game ificately,”expands critical thinking

and other skills

rking jects

By Jane Reuter n ef-

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com

entiLior Lapid believes in the power of enver chess. More than just a game, Lapid said, ricts, it’s a nontraditional way to teach kids criti, the cal thinking and math skills.

Shea Lapid has introduced dozens of Dougoards las County School District students to the game through summer camps and chess strict clubs launched at several elementary d the schools last year. He plans to continue the ation clubs with the new school year. ions.

“I would welcome him back,” Coyote o the Creek Elementary Principal Gigi Whalen es in said. “The kids really loved it. And I think said (chess) has a lot of math and problem solvwere ing that gets kids to do critical thinking.”

Lapid, founder of PALS Chess Academy, secualso started clubs at Heritage, Fox Creek s the and Copper Mesa elementary schools, as ted), well as the Platte River and STEM charter oard schools.

“Chess has been my passion since I was ublic a boy,” said Lapid, a Denver resident origit the nally from Israel. “Chess is a lot more popuArmy lar there. It’s now being taught as part of the school system in 30 countries, including Israel. My goal is to popularize it here.”

Research backs up Lapid’s contention that chess helps players recognize com-

plex patterns, and increases problem-solving skills. Several national organizations are dedicated to promoting the game in schools.

“Education in this country has been suffering to some extent and test scores reflect that,” Lapid said. “I’m not saying chess is the solution. But there is a lot of evidence that suggests it can help with critical thinking, planning ahead, arithmetic, algebra.

“I’ve seen kids who are otherwise socially awkward or having problems with their self-esteem; chess for a lot of them gives them something to feel more confident about, and it’s also an alternative to video games.”

Lapid’s teaching methods focus on keeping the game fun.

“Sometimes chess is perceived as this very dry, mathematical activity,” he said.

“I think you can teach it with story-telling and humor.”

Ten-year-old Ashley Becker attested to the fun aspect. The STEM Middle School student attended a summer chess camp hosted by Lapid at Heritage Elementary.

“It was really fun,” she said. “We even got to invent our own kinds of chess. When you have the right teacher, they can make the learning really intriguing.”

Becker believes that learning carries over into the classroom.

“Sometimes when I would come back from a chess game, I would feel ready for school and ready to learn about anything,” she said.

Lily Gregory watches Ethan Le play with the piece of a giant chess set at Platte River Academy. Courtesy photo Castle Pines parent Dion Boeke saw the social benefits when his shy son Torin attended a summer camp.

“It was a different way to socialize,” Boeke said. “By the end of the week, he had really good friends there. I think that game really brought them together.”

Boeke’s also sold on the game as an educational tool, and hopes to start a club at

Timber Trail Elementary.

“I think it teaches them to think strategically and critically,” he said. “It’s a way for them to actively learn as opposed to just passively playing video games or something like that.”

Mile High Chess Club, Colorado Master Chess Inc. and Strategic Kids also offer chess programs in Douglas County schools.

Coach - Valerie Elliott 2012 highlights - 5-6 in Continental League, 11-14 overall.

Top players - Mattison DeGarmo, OH, Jr.; Allyson Clancy, S, Jr. 2013 outlook -DeGarmo has been all-league the past two season and the young Huskies gained experience, consistency and confidence last season.

Say what? - “We have a solid group of kids that play together well. The league is incredibly tough again so we gain the advantage of pressure play on a weekly basis,” said Elliott.

ROCK CANYON

Coach - Jamie Robitaille 2013 highlights - 2-9 in Continental League, 6-19 overall.

Top players - Players who were on last year’s roster include Erin Babilon, Lib/DS ,Sr.; Paige Mathieson, OPP/ OH, Sr.; Bailey Zager, S, Jr.; Brooke Fry ,DS, Sr.; Ellie Rich, S , Jr.; Terryn Veres, OH/OPP, Jr. 2013 prospects — Veres led the team with 172 kills and nine underclassmen played in varsity games which bodes well for this season.

idea,” said Hammack. “Why are you not wearing a black uniform instead of a gold one? Then I have to go through and explain.”

Libero is a position that is not limited by rotation rules and can substitute freely. That’s the main reason for the different jersey so the libero can be tracked.

The libero, or bro as it is sometimes called, is responsible for passing, ball control, digs and getting to every ball she can possibly retrieve. She can’t, however, attack and can serve once in every rotation.

“We have a black jersey and a cardinal jersey,” said Ponderosa coach Rob Graham. “The libero must have a contrasting color. The way we present it is we give our libero a gold jersey. So we call it the gold badge of honor. When you are wearing this, everybody in the gym sees that gold badge back there and understands that we as a coaching staff say that is our best defender and passer. Only one person gets to wear the separate jersey and it’s a pretty big deal for coaches.”

Chaparral coach T.R. Ellis knows she needs a good athlete and leader to be the libero.

“What I tell my kids is the libero has to be tons better than any other defender on the court because she is going to get to play six rotations,” explained Ellis. “So she has to be substantially better because you want her controlling the ball. She needs to be someone who is quick on her feet, can make great decisions, can read where the attackers are going to hit the ball and get there.

“She has to be comfortable going for a ball outside of her body, stay on her feet if she can, but if she has to go to the floor, be comfortable playing the ball then hitting the floor and recovering on the floor. She has to have great hands and she has to be able to put the ball up and be a great passer as well. She’s the quarterback of the defense.”

Libero is an important position that often goes unnoticed except for the different colored jersey. The position was added to the game in the late 1990s to help create longer rallies.

“It’s a thankless position,” said Graham. “It’s overlooked.

If I was to make a team you might want to choose a big outside hitter as your No. 1 choice and maybe center right up there. With those players, you want a libero. Volleyball is definitely turning into a big person’s sport. The libero gives

Hammack, who is 5 feet 5, wishes more people would notice her play rather the odd jersey she wears.

“It’s really a bummer to see people noticing only the big hitters and the middles,” said Hammack. “We should get some recognition for all the hard work we put in.”

This season in the Continental League there will be several teams hoping to gain recognition. Mountain Vista and Legend are two of the preseason favorites with Rock Canyon, Ponderosa and Chaparral expected to be contenders.

Lutheran, the defending Class 2A state champion, has only three starters back and will have to mature as the season progress.

Facing a split-second decision Goalkeepers must be quick of mind and body on penalty kicks

By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Penalty kicks have been labeled as a nolose situation for soccer goalkeepers.

Shooters are expected to score, and the pressure is on them. If the keeper should make the save, he’s a hero.

“When I work with a goalkeeper I talk to them about watching any clues the shooter might give away like where they might look at the last second, where their plant foot is, if they open their hips or not,” said Legend coach Jordan Ivey. “Then I’ll talk to them about things they can do on the line that might throw the strike off a little. In the end though I tell them to go with their gut and go all out when they dive.”

There have been several studies made on penalty kicks.

One done at the 1998 World Cup, showed that on penalty kicks, including those in shootouts, 70 percent of the kicks went to the opposite side from the kicker’s dominate foot. A 2011 report published in the Journal of Psychological Science found keepers dove to the right 71 percent of the time when their team was losing and 48 percent when ahead and 49 percent when tied.

ESPN’s Sports Science claims saving a penalty kick is one of the toughest tasks in any sport and cites statistics that World Cup goalkeepers correctly picked the direction of penalty kicks 57 percent of the time but saved only 22 percent of the shots.

Legend senior goalie Eric Smith knows the chances of keepers stopping penalty kicks are not good.

“The odds are definitely stacked against us,” he said. “You have four different corners to dive to and pray we pick the right one. Sometimes we get a little lucky. Otherwise you don’t really have much of a chance.”

Smith has learned some tips to sway the odds a little in his favor.

“The first thing a lot of coaches actually teach you is to pick a side,” he said.

“And then as you get more experience, take penalty kicks in practice or you start to get experience in games or in shootouts, you learn to pick up tell-tale signs of what way a person is going to kick the ball.

“So I look at the shooter and see what way he is lining up, if he’s right footed or left footed, depending upon certain signals he’s giving me, his eyes or something I’ll pick a side to go to either high or low.

Left high, I’ll pick that first, but when he runs at the ball if I see like his hips switch to the right side or see his approach differently, I’ll make a split second decision. But before he evens runs at the ball I’ll have a side picked if he doesn’t give me any other sign.”

Valor Christian senior goalie Connor Georgopulos, a four-year starter, acknowledges that stopping a shot from a shooter 12 yards in front of him is difficult.

“It is probably the hardest thing about being a goalkeeper,” said Georgopulos.

“A lot people guess before the player even runs up to the ball. I don’t like to

Coach - Sean Henning 2012 highlights — 7-4-0 in Continental League, 10-7-1 overall. Lost to Boulder in quarterfinals of Class 5A playoffs.

Top players — Josh Kracke, MF, Sr.; Kyle Rollins, F, Sr. 2013 outlook — Jaguars have a team that is loaded with seniors and could make serious bid for the league title.

Say what — “We return 15 players from last year’s quarterfinal team,” said Henning.

guess. I kind of wait until he runs up where he is opening his hips or where his foot is planted and make my decision that way. I have possibly a second to make a decision.

“I’ve heard that is a no-lose situation but there are sometimes when you are close and you think you could have got there or you might have been able to get there.

It still is a goal and you feel like you’ve lost but for the most part it is just luck so you really didn’t lose either way.”

Cherry Creek coach Chelo Curi believes keepers need to pay more attention to the shooters than relying on luck.

“Goalkeepers need to learn to recognize player movement in order to predict which way they are going to shoot a penalty kick,” said Curi.

“They can also just flat-out guess one way or the other. However, there are certain clues top-level keepers learn in order to make a better educated guess on which way to go. Some goalkeepers are quite good at this skill while others are not.”

“Do You Suffer from these Seven Symptoms of this Often Misdiagnosed Problem?...”

Tens of millions suffer, and often don’t know where to turn...

Dear friend, The problem is often misdiagnosed, or not diagnosed at all. But, it affects the lives of between 10 and 20 million Americans.

This problem can cause: 1. Numbness 2. Burning pain 3. Cramping 4. Sharp, electric pain 5. Hurt when you walk 6. Difficulty sleeping from leg/foot discomfort 7. Prickling/tingling feelings If you suffer from one or more of these problems, you may have peripheral neuropathy. And, if you do, you’re not alone.

Often, these good people have been frustrated by the traditional care they’ve received for these terrible problems, and are still seeking help.

These problems can be caused by Diabetes, hereditary, disorders, Disc Herniations, inflammation, medications such as cholesterol lowering (statin) drugs, and more.

For the past 10 years, I’ve studied this class of conditions, collectively known as “peripheral neuropathies.” In fact, helping people with these problems has become a primary focus of mine.

It’s not unusual for me to hear stories from patients who’ve suffered for years with terrible symptoms. For many, they are missing out on the things they love to do. They aren’t enjoying life as they once did.

If that describes you, then perhaps I can help. I practice a multi-pronged attack to these problems.

It’s a unique program that only 100 doctors worldwide have studied.

That’s why I’ve put together the “Peripheral Neuropathy Pain Treatment Program” for anyone suffering from the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy pain. And, the beautiful thing is that when these health situations are resolved, people have great improvements in the quality of their lives. In many cases, they finally can live pain free, with peace and joy in their lives again.

I’m a proud member of the Neuropathy Treatment Centers of America. This gives me a unique set of knowledge and tools that have been tested, researched, and found to be effective.

Here’s what some of your neighbors have to say: It was so hard to keep my legs calm and still and night and try to stop kicking my husband. It made me so mad! My feet and legs were so cold that I couldn’t sleep. For the past week I have not had the restless leg syndrome, and my feet are warm at night and I have been able to finally rest! Thanks Dr Ryan (Hilma Guse)

When I started a couple months ago, my feet burned, they burned all the time. It was no way to live a life.

They even hurt and burned through the night, so my life was really like living in HELL! After my care, I have very little of that burning sensation and things are a whole lot better for me! Thanks!

But, please call right away because we can take only the first 27 callers. If you are one of these 27, I’ll do this Evaluation and Qualifying Process Completely FREE!!! So, please call my assistant Lori, or me, at 303-858-8288 in Castle Rock.

I don’t want you to miss out on this golden opportunity! Due to the nature of this offer, it will end on September 20, 2013.

Add some peace to your life or the life of someone you love. Call me today to make an appointment. We can help you. Thank you, Dr. Ryan Helms, D.C. P.S. Does your spouse, family member, or friend suffer from peripheral neuropathy? This offer is also available to them, too. You can even come in together.

Their lack of health affects your life also. Maybe this will be your chance to really give them the help they need.

2013 PREVIEW

Doubles duty a secret of success Top program Cherry Creek knows importance of team play

By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Cherry Creek has dominated Colorado boys high school tennis for the past four decades.

The explanation for the Bruins’ supremacy is simple good doubles play.

Creek has won 38 Colorado state tennis championships in 41 years. The Bruins have crowned 117 state champion doubles teams, 28 in No. 1 doubles, 34 in No. 2 doubles, 31 in No. 3 doubles and 24 in No. 4 doubles.

“Doubles is interesting,” said Creek coach Kirk Price.

“High school-level tennis players generally love singles.

There are those few boys that just thrive in doubles. They love it, love the strategy and enjoy what goes on in winning a doubles match.”

Over the years, Price has adjusted the way he selects his doubles teams.

“Historically, I always used singles to determine the varsity team,” admitted Price. “Over the years there were half dozen great, great doubles players who never got to play varsity because they were never good enough in singles to break into the top 11 but they were among the top two or three doubles players on the team.

“A few years ago we changed. Now we use the singles challenges for only the singles positions. We use what we refer to as doubles clusters.”

It takes a different kind of player in doubles to be successful.

“It takes kids that are able to evaluate their opponents and the weaknesses of their opponents,” said Price. “I’ve had kids that were mentally so good in doubles and yet physically are not even close at times to the skills of the opponents.

“They are not as good of tennis players with their strokes or tennis game but they are so much smarter and know how doubles works that they become state champions defeating people that are significantly better.”

“Doubles are fun but I really would like to play singles,” said Miller.

“We won last year because we worked well together as a doubles team. Cherry Creek tennis philosophy is to be aggressive and we usually both moved up to take control of the net and the tempo of play. Of course, we both had to be ready to move back quickly if the opponent hit a deep shot.”

Harshil Dwivedi is a junior who played last season with graduated Gifford Mellick on Creek’s state champion No. 4 doubles team.

is proud to announce the addition of Tiffany Richason, M.D.

“I like to play singles but my experience in doubles helped me improve my skills as a tennis player,” said Dwivedi. “I learned how to make the transition from deep in the court to controlling the net. Chemistry is a key for a doubles team. Last year my partner and I clicked and worked together to cover the entire court, sometimes both at the net and sometimes one at the net and one back near the baseline.”

Creek and Fairview are the expected to be the top contenders for the state championship this season but Tennis continues on Page 21

Mountain Vista has five returning state qualifiers plus outstanding freshmen Ben Antonsen and transfer Austin Groyoncowski.

“Doubles pairings are very important in trying to catch those teams in the state of Colorado,” said Mountain Vista coach Jim Flanigan. “I believe that finding players who mesh well together is very important in doubles and that means in personality style as well as in playing style.

“For my players it is very important to be good at the net and be willing to close off the net when playing doubles. Also high school tennis is one of the only places where players are part of a team and sometimes one must sacrifice to be part of that team and sometimes that means playing doubles.”

Boys Tennis Teams At a Glance CASTLE VIEW

Coach - Joel Justice 2012 highlights - Finished with a 3-7 record in Continental League.

Top players - Cody Carlton, Jr.; Josh Hunter, Soph.; Greg Connelly, Jr. 2013 outlook - Justice is the new Sabercats coach, replacing Mike Schneider. He can build around underclassmen Carlton, Hunter and Connelly.

Say what? - “I am looking for the program to be in the top half of our league and see improvement over the season,” said Justice.

CHAPARRAL

Coach - Peter Weyhrich 2012 highlights - Finished fourth in Continental League with 7-3 record.

Top players - Eric Kwiatowski, Sr.; Ryan Beckstrom, Jr. 2013 outlook - Kwiatowski is coming off a good summer campaign and is poised to have a strong senior year in the No. 1 singles spot. Beckman placed third at No. 2 singles in the regionals and has improved his game.

Say what? - “In a tough Continental League, we have the ability to compete with the top teams. Our team is a close-knit group and they are looking to build off last year’s success,” said Weyhrich.

CHERRY CREEK

Coach - Kirk Price 2012 highlights - Won Class 5A state championship.

Top players - Conner McPherson, Sr.; Jake Miller, Sr.; Noah Reiss, Jr.; Harshil Dwivedi, Jr.; Robert Hakulin, Sr; Zach Fryer, Sr. 2013 outlook - To say anything other than the Bruins will be a state championship contender would be foolish. McPherson won the No. 2 singles state championship last season. Miller was part of the No. 2 doubles title pair, Reiss played on the championship No. 3 doubles team and Dwivedi was half of the championship No. 4 doubles duo. Fryer is back after taking a season off, some young players and transfers will add to the Bruins’ strength.

Coach - Craig Marshall 2012 highlights - 7-2 in Continental League, 7-3 overall.

Top players - Mitchell Swim, Sr.; Davis Page, Jr.; Michael Maxwell, Jr.; Jacob Maxwell, Soph.; Monroe Porter, Soph.; Adam Liss, Jr.; Aaron Liss.

Jr. 2013 outlook - After losing six players to graduation from a team that qualified nine players for the state tournament, the Titans will be

young and loaded with potential.

Say what - “The future looks bright for the Titans since only two of the 32 players on the varsity and junior varsity are seniors,” said Marshall.

MOUNTAIN VISTA

Coach - Jim Flanigan 2012 highlights - Won Continental League championship with a 9-0 to end Regis Jesuit’s long reign. The Golden Eagles were seventh in the Class 5A state meet.

Coach - Chad Hanson 2012 highlights - Wound up 3-8 in Continental League.

Top players - Jacob Appleby, Sr.; Brett Jones, Sr.; Jack Paisley, Frosh.

Europeans dominate in Colorado U.S. team loses Solheim Cup for first time on American soil

By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com It was a historic day on Aug. 18 at Colorado Golf Club, but it didn’t involve a miracle on the greens.

Team Europe retained the Solheim Cup with an 18-10 victory over the United States and won for the first time in seven events played in America. The win marked the first time a team from Europe has won back-toback Cups and the margin of victory was the largest in the history of the event, which began in 1990.

The United States went into the final day staring at a substantial five-point deficit.

The Americans could not pull off a miracle comeback as the Europeans won 7½-4½ in the 12 singles matches played on Aug. 18.

There were five singles matches that were halved, the most in history.

“We took it to them and they couldn’t answer,” said Europe’s Suzann Pettersen who resides in Oslo, Norway.

Pettersen was right. Team Europe played superior golf and putted much better on the quick greens.

“They played some great golf this week and really deserved to win,” said U.S. captain Meg Mallon. “I give credit to them, they played well, had a hole-in-one (Anna Nordqvist on Aug. 17), a chip-in and we just didn’t have putts drop for us. The team gave it their all. I love my team.

“This (Solheim Cup) is the greatest show in women’s golf. The way we played 16, 17, and 18 is what made the difference. It wasn’t for the lack of preparation because we played the golf course quite a bit. So it wasn’t like a surprise for us. It was just a matter of dropping putts on those holes and unfortunately it was the Europeans.”

Over the last three holes, the Europeans

Overcome with disappointment, Michelle Wie drops to the green after missing a putt on the 18th green. Wie was defeated by Swede Caroline Hedwall, who sunk a putt on the same hole to ensure that Europe would retain the Solheim Cup. Photo by Deborah Grigsby held a 17-10 edge in holes won.

“We just did not make the putts,” added Mallon. “I saw more putts go over the hole on our side. It wasn’t for lack of not having good rolls. We just didn’t make them. With such a young team (six European Solheim rookies) with nothing to lose, it just seemed like they were a bit looser, they were making more putts and we were not. And that’s what it came down to.”

The Europeans wrapped up their second consecutive Cup victory on the 18th hole in

the fifth singles match when Caroline Hedwall, a captain’s pick from Sweden who won a crucial half point to secure Team Europe’s victory over the United States two years ago in Ireland, once again delivered the clinching blow. She defeated Michelle Wie, 1 up, after coming back from a 56-minute lightning delay, with a 4½-foot birdie on the final hole.

There were still seven matches left to be completed and all the Americans could do was play for pride.

“I just can’t tell you how proud I am of all the players,” said European captain Liselotte Neuman. “They really played well.

They just played tremendous golf.”

Hedwall won all five of the matches she played becoming the first player in Solheim Cup to do so in a single tournament.

“I don’t know what to say,” said Hedwall, 24. “It’s unbelievable. We knew we could Solheim continues on Page 23

Pride on the line for teams, fans Crazy outfits, loud chants part of Solheim Cup culture

By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com Golf is often thought of as an individual sport. It’s a little different when national pride is on the line.

It was a constant theme among the LPGA’s best and brightest stars in the weeks leading up the Solheim Cup: fan support would be key. And, judging by the crowds at the opening round Aug. 16, those words were heeded.

The throngs of fans who arrived to cheer on the United States came decked out from head to toe in red, white and dark blue.

They stuck flags and pompons in their caps, painted their faces and proudly wore their nation’s colors.

Joe Smith, who drove from Salt Lake City to the Denver area with his 10-year-old nephew, Tanner, on the Tuesday before Solheim Cup play started, planned ahead.

The pair wore USA-themed floppy hats and shirts.

During the Aug. 15 practice round, the Smiths kept count of how many people commented on their outfits, and were at 51 by about 3 p.m. It was their first trek to the Solheim Cup. The European team, meanwhile, enjoyed raucous chants from those who made the trip from the United Kingdom, Spain, Sweden and other lands. They haven’t acted like they are severely outnumbered. They donned the light blue and yellow uniforms worn by the European players, along with crazy wigs, flags and colored glasses.

Coleta Salas, a 23-year-old on holiday from Spain with three friends, decided that the tournament offered an excuse to visit a

Joe Smith drove out from Salt Lake City with his 10-year-old nephew, Tanner, to show their support for Team USA at the Solheim Cup. The pair kept count of how many people commented on their attire and were at 51 when this photo was taken Aug. 16. Photos by Chris Michlewicz part of the world she has never seen.

“It was a good chance to come to the U.S. and Colorado,” she said. “I’ve always wanted to see the Rockies. This is a great place to see them from.”

The intense heat that bore down on the Colorado Golf Club in Parker wasn’t enough to quiet

win here. I was really pumped up on 17 when they blew the horn (for the lightning delay). I went in and gave a little talk to myself and I went out there and I was just as pumped up as I was before.”

Stacy Lewis and Sweden’s Anna Nordqvist had the honors as the first twosome to tee off and wound up halving an up-and-down match.

“I was hitting good putts, they were just lipping out,” said Lewis.

“That’s golf for you. You have to stay patient, stay positive. I hit a lot of really good shots. I felt fortunate to get a halve.”

Charley Hull, the 17-year-old from Kettering, England, who is the youngest player in Solheim Cup history, picked up a point for Team Europe

the spectators on the first day of competition. Just before the afternoon rounds kicked-off, the stands were packed with fans representing both sides.

When the European backers began chanting “Ole! Ole! Ole! Ole!” and reciting the words to “Nah Nah Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye,” the USA fans fought

with a 5-and-4 win over Paula Creamer.

“After the first day, I really got used to the golf course and I just relaxed and made quite a few birdies over the last two days,” said Hull who went 2-10 in her Solheim debut. “I really didn’t feel nervous. Because this is how I always look at golf, I’m not going to die if I miss it. Just hit it and find it and hit it again.”

Creamer, one of America’s top players, didn’t have much positive to say.

“I just didn’t bring it,” she admitted.

“The Solheim Cup brings the best and worst out of you.”

Europe’s Carlota Ciganda whipped Morgan Pressel, 4 and 2, to set the stage for Hedwall’s decisive win.

Team USA trailed the Europeans the entire three days of the competition, falling behind 5-3 after Foursomes and Four-ball on the opening day. The Americans closed to within 6½-5½ after the Foursomes Aug. 17, but disaster struck when the Europe-

back, drowning them out shouts of “U-S-A!” Despite being down by two points after the morning session, and trailing early in the afternoon, the U.S. supporters didn’t relent.

They yelled words of encouragement to individual players and applauded small victories in the hopes of building momentum.

ans swept all four best-ball matches in the afternoon.

The U.S. played well at times but not good enough. The Europeans made most of the big shots and big putts. The Americans had myriad putts roll inches past the cup or lip out.

“Obviously, yesterday (Aug. 17) afternoon hurt us a lot,” said Lewis.

“They holed putts when they needed to and hit the shots. There’s always pressure to win, whether we won it two years ago, whether we didn’t, whether we’re home, whether we are away. They’re (Europeans) getting better every year and they’re making this (Solheim Cup) what it should be. It’s good for the event.”

The U.S. still leads the Solheim Cup all-time standings, 8-5, with the 2015 Solheim Cup scheduled to be played in St. Leon-Rot, Germany.

“We have two years to get ready for Germany and we’re going to get that Cup back,” said Wie.

KICKOFF

Aurora resident Nancy Peterson, who made the most of her four-day weekend, thrived off the tense atmosphere and says Team USA’s early deficit only made her cheer louder.

“We’ve got to support our girls out there and show our national pride,” she said, before letting out a loud whoop.

Author Davidson to appear in Castle Rock

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Diane Mott Davidson’s 17th mystery is published this month and she has a string of appearances scheduled to meet her fans: she will be at Tattered Cover Colfax, 7 p.m. Aug. 28, Hearthfire Books in Evergreen at 5 p.m. on Aug. 29 and at Philip S. Miller Library in Castle Rock at 7:30 p.m.

Aug. 30.

Her engaging sleuth, caterer Goldy Schulz, lives with her police officer second husband in the fictional Aspen Meadows just west of Denver, which bears a striking resemblance to Davidson’s actual hometown, Evergreen. As the book opens, Goldy is preparing for a Tex-Mex birthday party for her teenaged son, Arch, and Drew, the son of her close friend Holly.

Menus and food preparation play a major part in her daily life — enjoyable for the person who loves reading cookbooks, as well as the mystery fan. Each book contains a group of recipes — origi-

IF YOU GO

Diane Mott Davidson will read, talk with visitors and sign books at 7 p.m. Aug. 28., Tattered Cover, 2526 E. Colfax, Denver; at 5 p.m. Aug. 29, Hearthfire Books, 1254 Bergen Parkway, Evergreen; 7:30 p.m. Aug. 30 at Philip S. Miller Library, 100 Wilcox St., Castle Rock.

nally spaced through the mysteries, but in recent volumes grouped at the back.

At the party, at friend Marla’s home, several guests and a stranger enter the kitchen before food is served. Why are they there and is there a connection with what happens later that night — Holly collapses and dies, presumably of a heart attack, but is it really? Was it something she ate? Goldy is convinced she was murdered.

“Publisher’s Weekly” magazine describes Davidson as “the divine diva of the culinary cozy.” She leads the reader through a community chase for a murderer and motives, presenting several widely-different men who have been involved with Holly and may have had a reason to eliminate her. Each character is well-described as to physical appearance and mannerisms, so one sorts them out

in a scene.

Goldy, who prepares for two other parties during the few days covered in the book, has several close calls herself.

Davidson’s descriptions of locations are detailed enough to keep one engaged throughout. And, the food descriptions keep coming —yum!

The author has built a following of fans who will welcome a chance to curl up with a new adventure and the latest book, with a publication date of Aug. 27, should attract some new admirers who will want to visit the library shelves for earlier titles. (Each one stands as a separate tale, so there’s no need to read them in order.) Recent titles are “Crunch Time,” “Fatally Flaky,” “Sweet Revenge,” and “Dark Torte.”

Davidson grew up in Charlottesville, Va., where a teacher encouraged her to become a writer. She attended Wellesley College and transferred to Stanford University, with a double major in art history and political science. An MA in art history from Johns Hopkins followed. She has a long involvement with the Episcopal Diocese of Denver, which probably explains the place of St. Luke’s and its loveable priest in this book.

Daytime concerts expand in lone Tree Modestly priced shows are hit at arts center

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Lone Tree Arts Center experimented last season with offering modestly priced afternoon concerts for the growing number of seniors and retirees in the area. They were chamber music or jazz programs on the second Wednesday of each month and attendance increased from a couple dozen to a couple hundred as the season went on, according to marketing director Katie Maltais.

This year, they have expanded to 10 events, ranging from opera and classical to jazz and bluegrass, each at 1:30 p.m.

The first, “Opera on Tap,” is unfortunately past before press time — on Aug. 14 — but readers can mark calendars in advance for the rest.

Let chips fall where they may

Penn gives taura throu write subsc As the saying goes, “there’s no such Wedn thing as bad publicity.” Especially free arker publicity. reach Boulder Canyon’s potato chips got a plug on cable TV’s “Breaking Bad” on Aug. 303-6 11 when a character in the AMC network series is shown munching on a bag of Boulder Canyon’s sea salt and cracked pepper chips.

In Sunday’s mid-season premiere, Hank Schrader (played by actor Dean Morris), a Drug Enforcement Agency agent and brother-in-law of Walter White, the series’ chemistry teacher turned crystal meth maker - is digging into a bag Boulder Canyon’s chips.

How did Boulder Canyon take the news that its product was featured on a hit cable series about cancer-stricken high school teacher (played by Bryan Cranston) turned drug kingpin?

On its Twitter feed (@BoulderCanyon), the company wrote: “Now we know Hank’s got good taste in his snacks! We wonder what flavor Walt would like...?” and “Eating our chips clearly helps in the investigative process.”

The Boulder Daily Camera first reported the story.

Taste of Lone Tree’s future uncertain Problem-plagued 2013 event leaves some ticket-holders and vendors bitter

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com After an event one vendor called a black mark on the city that left many participants vowing never to return, the Taste of Lone Tree’s future is uncertain.

The sixth annual event, held Aug. 10 and 11, was plagued by rain, food and alcohol shortages, decreased vendor participation and an apparent shortage of volunteers.

Board members for the Lone Tree Chamber of Commerce, the event’s organizer, asked recently hired executive director Linda Harmon not to comment, and instead issued a three-paragraph statement Aug. 15.

“We are disappointed that the event did not uphold the high standards many have come to expect when attending and we apologize for your frustrations,” the statement read.

OVERWEIGHT? LOSEupto30 lbs. in just 6 weeks!*

“I lost over 70 lbs. and 88 inches!”

I had reached my heaviest weight ever!

That’s when I said “NO more larger sizes!”

With MRC I reached my goal very quickly.

Shopping is FUN now!

“A Taste of Lone Tree needs to reflect positively on the City of Lone Tree and its many offerings.”

The chamber plans to hold a debriefing on the event in the next couple of weeks, said board member Donna Russell, adding that the event’s future, “is certainly one of the questions we will be discussing.”

Visitors complained about issues including a lack of tables, seating and vendors, changes in ticket prices, sample sizes and a fenced-off VIP area some found lackluster.

Mother Nature inflicted the harshest blow to the event.

A Saturday night rainstorm that left the Lincoln Commons ground muddy prompted organizers to delay Sunday’s opening an hour. As volunteers scrambled to spread mulch, hundreds gathered in the parking area near the front gate — too far away to see signs explaining the delay.

Lone Tree Brewing Company co-owner John Winter said his employees were given poor information on numerous points, including anticipated turnout. By mid-day Saturday, the brewery was tapped out of the beer it had planned for both days, with no ability to get more until Sunday.

“I really don’t ever want to see our city, our community, subject to this type of mess again,” Winter said. “This was such a black mark on the community, I’m truly embarrassed.”

Frustrated as he is, Winter said he would be there for a 2014 Taste of Lone Tree. “This is our back yard and I’m not going to abandon it,” he said.

Lone Tree City Councilmember Susan Squyer, a volunteer at this year’s event who co-organized a previous Taste, said volunteers worked frantically to try to meet demands.

“I don’t have answers or know what was really happening at all,” she said. “I know there were a lot of disappointed customers.”

That aside, Squyer wants the Taste to continue.

“It’s been a signature event for Lone Tree,” she said. “But I would say that was probably a more accurate statement before this last weekend.”

La Sandia’s Mike Schwinkendorf and Matthew Swigart served watermelon gazpacho during the Taste of Lone Tree. Photo by Jane Reuter Vendors said turnout, estimated at 8,000 to 10,000 over two days, was a bright spot in the event.

“It was probably the biggest one we’ve seen,” said Brio general manager Mark Lausman. “I think what happened was that the crowds were bigger than people thought.”

“Overall, it was pretty good exposure,” said La Sandia’s Matthew Swigart. “I was a little upset it wasn’t more organized. People I talked to were upset there weren’t more restaurants.

“We’ve done it the last six years, but we’re probably not going to do it next year. It’s just getting worse every year.”

What’s on the horizon.

There was this Parker family: The father lost his job. A couple months later, the wife lost her job.

And they had a mortgage to pay. So ultimately they sold their two cars so they could save their home. So then they had to depend on friends for rides to job interviews and to run errands. And then they needed help so they could feed and clothe their kids, as well as help paying utility bills.

“I get emotional,” said Nani Lindig recently, a Douglas Elbert Task Force volunteer who choked up momentarily while relating that family’s situation.

The task force was there to help the family, as well as the roughly 15,000 other people per year it helps who need emergency services, said Lindig, coordinator for the Sept. 13 Sassy Soiree, a major annual fundraiser for the task force.

And that’s why she hopes people will be interested in attending the fundraiser. She said the task force is one of the few human service organizations in this area. And the task force, among those organizations, is

the one that is a kind of a one-stop-shopping help center of emergency services — providing food, housing, short-term help with utilities bills and other services from their Castle Rock headquarters at 1638 Park St. That’s the main reason. The other reason to attend is because the event, the Sassy Soiree, is great fun, she says. There will be auctions, a fashion show, luncheon, clothing and jewelry boutiques. Some items are donated - such as cases of wine from local wine sellers, gift cards and golf excursions.

But many of the items are treasures found from the task force’s thrift shop that volunteers have put aside for months for this event. Things like mink coats - like the one knee-length coat that sold for $200 at last year’s event. And the diamond ring that a man bought for his fiancée for $100.

The event will take place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sept. 13 at the Douglas County Events Center on the Douglas County Fairgrounds. Tickets are $45, or $400 for a table of eight. The deadline to buy tickets is Sept.

6.
