Trees bring cheer to families in need 100 trees donated through Rotary Club of Centennial

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Lights, ornaments, snacks and real Christmas trees — no plastic here — brightened up the holidays for low-income families at an event put on by the Rotary Club of Centennial.

This “is very refreshing, to not have to buy a tree, ornaments and lights. It definitely takes the stress out of Christmas,” said Reejahnae Long, 21.

Long, from Denver, was one of the members of 100 families who had trees provided for them at the Dec. 10 event, held at the Arapahoe County Sheriff ’s Office in the unincorporated area just south of Centennial. The families were identified by Integrated Family Community Services, Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children (CASA) and one church, the Rotary Club said in a news release.

“It’s just filling a need in the community,” said member Ken Hope, who led the project and said that as a service club, “That’s what we do.”

Community members in the area got involved in the project, like Christa Grasse from the Centennial Prime Timers seniors club, who knitted 100 ornaments for the cause. Fifteen organizations and retail stores pitched in, with Home Depot donating 50 trees and O’Toole’s Garden Center and Highlands Nursery giving trees as well.

Arapahoe County Sheriff David Walcher, a member of the Rotary Club of Centennial, arranged for the giveaway to take place in the sheriff ’s office parking lot.

The club holds breakfast meetings from 7:15 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. on Tuesdays at the Embassy Suites Hotel at 10250 E. Costilla Ave. in Centennial, and anyone is welcome to join. The Rotary is a worldwide organization that promotes humanitarian service.

Sex-crime victims have allies in SANE nurses

Littleton Adventist among hospitals with program that helps provide healing, justice

SAFE SPACES

SANE/SAFE programs can be found around the state, from Durango to Fort Morgan, and at nine locations in the metro area, with Parker Adventist Hospital to be added in January: • Littleton Adventist Hospital • St. Anthony Hospital, Lakewood • St. Anthony Hospital, North Health, Westminster • St. Anthony Hospital, 84th Avenue location, Westminster • Denver Health Medical Center • Porter Adventist Hospital, Denver • Medical Center of Aurora • UCHealth Aurora • Children’s Hospital Colorado, Aurora

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Jennifer Bishara often meets people on the worst day of their lives.

Bishara, a nurse, is the director of the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner/Sexual Assault Forensic Examiner program — or SANE/SAFE — for Littleton Adventist Hospital. She’s liable to be paged any time of day or night to meet with sex-assault victims, and to conduct a thorough evidence-gathering examination that could spell the difference between locking up sexual predators or watching them walk free.

In an era in which politicians, entertainers and business leaders are facing waves of accusations of sexual misconduct, Bishara and her colleagues want to get the word out that victims of sex assault can expect skilled and loving help from experienced professionals.

“When a patient comes in this room, they’ve had something taken from them,” Bishara said, sitting in a small examination room. “We give them their dignity and control back.”

The program also cares for victims of domestic violence and strangulation, and is beginning to branch out into elder abuse and child abuse.

The program has its origins in the 1970s, as forensic evidence collection commenced a sea change in how sex crimes were prosecuted. Today the program, overseen by the International Association of Forensic Nurses, is present in nearly 30 hospitals statewide — and soon expanding to Parker Adventist Hospital.

Treatment and options When victims arrive at the hospital, staff page a SANE/ SAFE nurse, who arrives within 45 minutes, regardless of the time, 365 days a year. Nurses must obtain explicit, informed consent from victims, who then provide a detailed account of the assault, Bishara said. They are then given a meticulous physical exam, in which nurses take swabs of physical evidence on the victims’ body, and use a device called a colposcope — essentially an oversized microscope — to examine and

this, I started feeling like everyone was a rapist. We see the worst of society — the absolute worst. It’s a sisterhood, and we help each other stay resilient.”

Nurse Jennifer Bishara, left, performs a strangling action on a mannequin head — named “Liz” — that she and nurse Stacy Hobson, right, use to ask strangulation victims to demonstrate how their attacker assaulted them. Bishara and Hobson are trained SANE/SAFE nurses, who work with victims of sexual assault and domestic violence.

DAVID GILBERT photograph injuries.

The examination also provides treatment for infection and pregnancy prevention.

Victims are also connected with The Blue Bench, a Denverbased sex assault victims advocacy group, as well as other resources. Nurses ensure that each victim has a safe place to go after the examination.

Victims are not required to report the assault to law enforcement, though Bishara encourages it. Regardless, the forensic evidence and statement of the victim are collected and assigned a serial number and maintained under strict security, so that if the victim decides to pursue charges at a later date, the evidence remains intact and admissible in court. SANE/SAFE nurses routinely testify in criminal cases.

Victims can come in up to five days after an assault, though Bishara said the sooner the better, as evidence degrades with every passing hour.

Catching offenders Evidence collected in a SANE/SAFE examination can be crucial to convicting sexual predators, said Chris Gallo, chief deputy district attorney for Colorado’s 18th Judicial District, which covers Arapahoe, Douglas, Lincoln and Elbert counties.

“Robberies can be caught on camera,” said Gallo, who heads the district’s Special Victims’ Unit, which prosecutes sex crimes and crimes against children. “Homicides have bullets

and guns and people willing to testify. With sex assault, however, we have a crime that occurs often between two people behind closed doors. The victim often feels shame and embarrassment. The fact that there’s a trained professional who can collect whatever small amount of evidence could exist to prosecute a sexual assault is fantastic. Without that, we’re back to circumstantial evidence and the credibility of witnesses.”

Sex crimes occupy a dark niche in the world of criminal prosecution, Gallo said, because society has long held a distrust of accusers — a distrust Gallo said he sees waning.

“It’s gratifying to see the support for people who disclose they’ve been abused, and I say it’s about freakin’ time,” Gallo said. “Supporting programs like SAFE/SANE goes a long way toward furthering that goal.”

Doctors, too, rely on the expertise of SANE/SAFE nurses to address an otherwise difficult scenario.

“Sexual assault examinations are very time-dependent, and very time-consuming,” said Dr. Matt Brougham, an emergency physician at Littleton Adventist and the medical director for the South Metro SANE/SAFE Program. “It can take two to three hours to do it right, and that’s very hard for emergency practitioners. Also, it’s vital that the evidence be handled properly, because a good defense attorney can find ways to get evidence thrown

out. This way, there are no mistakes.”

In hospitals without SANE/ SAFE care, sexual-assault victims may wait for hours to be treated, Brougham said.

“These are very emotionally charged situations, and people may walk if they can’t get this care,” Brougham said. “This is a great benefit to the community, and it’s hard to practice in a community where this isn’t available.”

Impact on practitioners Seeing sexual predators thrown in prison based on the testimony of SANE/SAFE nurses is rewarding, said nurse Stacy Hobson, who has worked in the program for 10 years.

“It’s greatly gratifying,” said Hobson, who has testified in more than 30 cases.

“Sometimes our evidence is so impeccable they just take a plea deal.”

Hobson has the distinction of being among the longer-lasting nurses in the program, which can take an emotional toll on its practitioners.

“I have healthy boundaries,” Hobson said. “I’m good about not taking on vicarious trauma.”

The nurses in the program look out for one another, and help keep each other from getting overwhelmed, said Bishara, the program director.

“Detailed accounts of assaults can be traumatizing for nurses,” Bishara said. “If I have a particularly bad case, I dream about it all night. I have five kids. When I started doing

Bigger picture Bishara said that while she’s grateful to be able to help victims, she’d like to see society do a better job of addressing the causes of sexual assault rather than just treating the symptoms.

“Sex assault starts with the culture,” Bishara said. “It’s about teaching sons about inappropriate touching and violence. I’ve got four sons — I tell them if a girl’s been drinking, hands off.”

Sexual assault is less about sexual gratification and more about power, dominance and humiliation, Bishara said, adding that she’s beginning to see more men report assaults, too.

Their suffering can be acute.

“Women are trained and conditioned to avoid sex assault, but men are not,” Bishara said.

“I see more outward devastation from men.”

Regardless of identity, victims can expect a safe place and a wealth of resources and options in a SANE/SAFE facility, Hobson said.

“We start by believing you,” Hobson said. “I won’t force you to report. I just want you to come in.”

Bishara takes issue with elements of sexual assault nomenclature.

“I hate the word ‘victim,’” Bishara said. “I prefer the word ‘survivor.’ They’re being victimized out there, but here, they leave as survivors.”

Bishara’s survivors often leave her exam room on a path to healing, she said.

“We’re told not to hug them, but a lot of times, they hug us,” Bishara said. “It seems very cathartic to them. We tell them that this happened and it’s terrible, but it doesn’t have to define you. You can be more and you can be better. ”

E-470 widening project now complete New third lanes, regional trail provide mobility options STAFF REPORT

The addition of a third lane in each direction along E-470 from Quincy Avenue to Parker Road is complete.

Part of the eight-mile Road Widening Project, the new lanes will allow the toll road to accommodate projected growth and continue to maintain flow of traffic.

A 2014 study of the E-470 Public Highway Authority indicated that the section of roadway between Quincy Avenue and Parker Road would need to be widened by 2018 to continue operating at the same level of service desired by customers.

Work began in spring 2016, and the new lanes opened Oct. 16, two months ahead of projected. Final work on signage, landscaping and lighting is expected to wrap up in the coming weeks. Cost of the project is about $90 million.

The project also included the con-

struction of a regional trail along the west side of E-470, between Quincy Avenue and Ireland Way. The trail opened Dec. 1.

The trail has been constructed past the designated endpoint at Ireland Way, along the E-470 right of way to the Arapahoe/Douglas County line, although this section is not yet open to the public.

The Town of Parker is working with neighboring jurisdictions to determine the connectivity and final design for the trail reaching to the Cherry Creek Trail west of Parker Road.

E-470 officials see the construction of the trail as laying the groundwork for future connections and travel options in the area through partnerships with the local jurisdictions.

“The Road Widening Project provided us with an opportunity to explore other steps, like the trail and added lanes, that we could take now to prepare for enhanced connectivity and options in the future,” Tim Stewart, E-470 executive director, said in a news release. “The larger focus of the project — adding roadway capacity — will allow us to meet customer demand and continue to provide a safe and reliable journey for travelers.”

City moves to own Parker Jordan Centennial open space City moves from 50 percent to full ownership of one of only city-run recreation areas

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Centennial City Council voted to purchase — for free — the 50 percent interest of the Parker Jordan Centennial open space the city didn’t previously own, giving Centennial full control over the 107-acre swath of land.

Before, it shared the cost of maintaining the land with the Parker Jordan Metropolitan District, which owned the other 50 percent interest before. That governmental body manages the area bounded by East Arapahoe Road, south Jordan and Parker roads, and the Arapahoe-Douglas county line.

One of only a handful of parks and open spaces that Centennial owns, the space sits in the southeast part of Centennial, where East Broncos Parkway crosses south Parker and Jordan roads. The South Suburban Parks and Recreation and Arapahoe Park and Recreation districts manage most parks in the city.

The Dec. 4 decision by city council won’t change much, as the ordinance to take the remaining interest in the open space declared an emergency to speed up the process, but only so the city would have the ability to main-

tain the land by Jan. 1. The land will remain open space.

Standard procedure for such a move would take longer, and the Parker Jordan Metropolitan District ended its contract with Arapahoe County to maintain the land effective Dec. 31. No health or safety problem necessitated the purchase.

Bennett Rutledge, who ran for, but didn’t win, a District 2 city council seat in the Nov. 7 election, opposed the move at the Dec. 4 council meeting.

“Just because we may do it ... does not mean we should be doing it,” said Rutledge, who said other governmental bodies could have stepped in to manage the land.

The city will pay additional maintenance costs now, but Centennial’s 2018 budget includes funds for that purpose, according to city staff.

Centennial acquired 50 percent ownership of the 107 acres, which sit along the Cherry Creek, in 2010.

The city worked with the metropolitan district to improve the open space, including completing of one of the last significant links in the Cherry Creek Trail, said Allison Wittern, spokeswoman for the city. The two bodies worked with other partners on the reclamation of the Cherry Creek stream to stabilize the creek and surrounding habitat.

The trail, completed in 2010, runs from downtown Denver to Cherry Creek State Park all the way down to the Castle Rock area, parallel to Parker Road.

Bikers on the Cherry Creek Trail at the Parker Jordan Centennial Open Space Dec. 10. The approximately 107acre open space, which Centennial previously had 50 percent ownership in, came under full ownership of the city after a Dec. 4 vote of its city council.

Migration out of Colorado reaches record in 2016 Number of people moving in is larger as state’s growth continues ASSOCIATED PRESS

A record number of residents have moved out of Colorado, according to new data from the U.S. Census Bureau.

New annual figures from the bureau’s American Community Survey show that Colorado saw its first drop in about a decade last year in the

number of people arriving from other states, while those leaving Colorado hit a record high.

The result was the lowest netmigration number — 30,000 total new residents — in seven years.

About 193,000 Colorado residents moved away last year, 10,000 more than in 2015, according to the data.

Meanwhile, 223,000 people moved into the state, down about 4,000 from the year before, though still well above recent years.

“We are seeing that there has been an increase in outs — the highest on record,” said state demographer Eliza-

beth Garner.

The Census Bureau survey numbers do not include people who have moved to the state from abroad. And because the counts are based on surveys, the margin of errors can be large, especially when looking at movements to and from individual states, The Denver Post reported .

Tax-return counts from the IRS show that Colorado experienced a big jump in both households arriving and leaving from other states last year versus 2015.

But on the whole, net migration among people who filed tax returns isn’t declining.

Home prices in metropolitan Denver are up 57 percent the past eight years through October, as measured by the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller home price indices. The average apartment rent since mid-2009 is up 63.6 percent, according to rent figures from the Apartment Association of Metro Denver.

The average hourly wage, by contrast, rose from $25.07 to $28.94, an increase of only 15.4 percent, according

to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Meanwhile, Colorado’s population grew by 11 percent from 2009 to 2016, to 5.55 million residents.

The drop in net migration could help explain why Colorado’s unemployment rate dropped sharply to a record-low 2.3 percent this spring.

But slower population growth could help housing markets along the Front Range rebalance after years of strong gains in home prices and rents and allow builders to catch up on supply shortages, especially for single-family homes.

Still, professionals in real estate and moving businesses say they aren’t yet seeing a slack in the number of people moving here.

“I suppose if we had negative or slowing migration numbers, then, yes, it could help the constrained market.

But I have not experienced that yet and would be surprised to see a slower market in 2018,” said Steve Thayer, chairman of the Denver Metro Association of Realtors and owner of the Keller Williams Action Realty office in Castle Rock.

DA’s office clears deputy in fatal shooting Carjacking suspect was killed in Centennial residential area in May

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

An officer-involved shooting in a residential area of Centennial May 31 that resulted in the death of a 17-yearold suspect from the southwest Denver area was justified, according to a review by the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office released Dec. 7.

The review, dated Sept. 19, said Robert Knudsen, a deputy for the Arapahoe County Sheriff ’s Office, acted in line with laws that oversee use of force in defense of self and others, and use of deadly force by law enforcement, in shooting James Daniel Hill, born in 1999, in connection with a car-

jacking case. The review detailed the crimes and chase Hill was involved in.

“I find that Deputy Robert Knudsen reasonably believed that his life was in imminent danger, that (Hill) presented an imminent danger of serious bodily injury or death to other police officers and to members of the public,” said the review, signed by Karen Pearson, chief deputy district attorney for the office.

According to the findings of the review: Hill and four others had been driving around in a stolen 2004 white Chevrolet Impala that day. The car was stolen sometime between the afternoons of May 28 and May 29 from 10260 Washington St. in Thornton. It’s not known who stole the vehicle or if the five people were involved in that theft.

Hill was one of three males who robbed a man in a parking lot in the early morning of May 31 in the apart-

ment complex at 15859 E. Jamison Drive, which sits in unincorporated Arapahoe County just south of Centennial.

Hill was armed with a handgun, and the man gave up his wallet, phone and keys to the group. The three males got in the man’s 2006 black Nissan Altima and drove away.

The group came back to the Impala, which they had parked in the area, picked up the two females and left as a full group in the Nissan.

Nearly half an hour later, at 5:11 a.m., Deputy Peter Tasei pursued the car with after coming to the area following a 911 call about the robbery.

The Nissan accelerated, ran a red light and continued westbound on East Dry Creek Road.

Knudsen heard of the chase on his police radio and attempted to force the car to turn north on South Yosemite Street to avoid it getting close to residential areas. Knudsen positioned his

car in the intersection, but the vehicle swerved around him. Knudsen then ran into the rear driver’s side of the Nissan with his vehicle to stop it, and it spun out of control, ending up near the Saddle Ridge apartment complex at 8717 E. Dry Creek Road.

The five people in the car fled on foot. Hill ran while holding a handgun, and Knudsen continued to yell commands for him to stop and get down on the ground, warning that he would shoot if Hill didn’t comply.

When Knudsen feared Hill would reach pavement — there were grassy areas in the complex — and get away, Knudsen fired two shots from his handgun, one of which hit Hill in the back and perforated his left lung.

Knudsen called for paramedics and began applying pressure to the wound and performing CPR on Hill.

Hill was transported to Sky Ridge Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

“Cream and sugar?”

There’s my six-word QUIET novel. I got the idea DESPERATION for a six-word novel from Hemingway, who got the idea from someone else.

But someone else was someone no one has heard of, so Hemingway gets credit for it.

I will share Hemingway’s sixCraig Marshall word novel later.

Smith This isn’t a tribute to Hemingway or very, very short

novels.

Technically, six words are too few to be either a novel or even a haiku.

Most novels are over 60,000 words.

Herman Melville, the creep, inflicted over 200,000 on me in just one book.

About a whale.

This is a tribute to coffee, hot and neat, unpolluted with sugars and half this and that.

I have overheard people who make a coffee order sound like a recipe for pudding.

If someone wants to meet for coffee, I am willing — if it’s coffee.

Bogart never said, “Do you have any flavored coffees?”

None of this means I am a tough guy. It just means that I refuse to take

something profound and meaningful, and put gimcracks in it.

You go ahead: toss your hair, and say, “Blonde Roast, room for sweet cream and Jujubes,” if you want to, but leave me out of it.

If someone at my table orders a “single-origin Rwandan espresso,” I am out. Gone.

Hand me a “craft” coffee, and I will hand it right back.

I don’t want a cup of coffee that has been French-pressed.

We like to turn good things, great things, into overthought things.

I still drive my own car. It doesn’t drive me, park me, or ask me what I want to listen to, or if my butt is warm enough.

I know that it’s cool to be cool, and black coffee isn’t cool.

You have to have some standards, and you have to have some rules.

I don’t allow anyone in my house who has a hyphenated name.

Or anyone who refers to carrots and celery as “veggies.”

Anyone who begins a sentence with “So” is on probation.

I will interrupt and say, “I’ll bet you like flavored coffees.”

“Why, yes. So, how did you know?”

Do I have an open mind? I did have one until I heard about Richard Nixon and Richard Carpenter and Richard Simmons.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

The rest of the story Mike Coffman in his guest column regarding tax reform (Dec. 7) failed to provide readers with the complete description of the proposal. He did not mention that the Affordable Care Act will be effectively discontinued, replaced by nothing.

So up to 13 million people will be left without health insurance, many of them residing in his congressional district. It’s also likely that those already with health insurance will receive an increase on their premium.

The richest people in our country, the top 1 percent, will receive a tax decrease.

These are the people who fund Mr. Coffman’s campaign. This tax decrease will cause our nation’s deficit to rise to a dangerous level. The Republican Party does not like deficits. Therefore, they are considering the elimination of Medicare and Medicaid. These are programs , they say, America does not need.

There’s nothing like Americans helping Americans. This tax bill helps the rich at the expense of the poor. Let’s write a tax bill that benefits us all.

ow are you doing?” It was a common and simple enough question to ask a friend of mine whom I had not spoken to in a while. Her response, “Better than yesterday, awesome today, and not yet quite as incredible as tomorrow.” I loved it and her enthusiasm was contagious as her answer inspired me for the rest of my day, and it definitely contributed to this column.

Years ago, I had written about a friend of mine, his name is Jerry, but his nickname has always been Nazz, an abbreviated version WINNING of his last name. Well Nazz, when asked WORDS how he was doing would always answer in the same way, “Great, couldn’t be better.” I watched him give this same response over and over again. And without fail, it always brought a smile to my face and to whoever it was that asked him how he was doing.

Optimism is one thing, but a commitment to optimism takes everything to a whole new level. It isn’t just a mindset, Michael Norton it turns our mindset into action. Both friends I mention above have always had this sense of positive thinking ever since I have met them. Their positive attitude and optimistic outlook towards life has played a huge role in my own personal development and I hope to share a little of that with you here today.

When I think about some of the emails I receive, and relate their stories to the idea of a positive outlook in life, I think about the people fighting addictions, couples going through a divorce, relationships that are hanging on by a thread, people battling cancer or other healthrelated problems, members of our community strugSEE NORTON, P13

these qualities and characteristics have made the conscious choice to do so.

That’s right, they have made the choice to live with these qualities even in the face of much adversity and overwhelming hardships and heartache.

They have been challenged with the death of a loved one, divorce, a business partner who cheated them, bankruptcy, and addictions of many kinds. Yet they choose strength, courage, confidence, faith, hope, and love. It is life-changing for them and it is life-changing for everyone that has the pleasure and privilege of knowing them.

And here’s the other part of this.

Many people who I know who are thriving and not facing challenges at this time also seem to live with these very same traits. They aren’t fighting adversity, they use these same qualities to raise the bar of optimism and success.

Colorado doesn’t have the same literary reputation as places like New York, Chicago or San Francisco, but there’s something about the state that draws men and women of letters here.

Beat prophets Jack Kerouac, Neal Cassady and Allen Ginsberg all spent time in the Front Range; James A. Michener taught at what is now the University of Northern Colorado; and gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson made Woody Creek, outside of Aspen, his mountain home.

That same atmosphere makes

Colorado a popular place for writers in the making.

“Denver is this kind of quietly literary city,” said Corey Dahl, communications coordinator with Lighthouse Writers Workshop, an organization that has been around for 20 years, and offers classes and opportunities to amateur writers. “We have thousands of writers who come to us for classes and workshops, and we work regularly with the students and faculty associated with Regis University’s Mile-High MFA and the University of Denver’s creative writing Ph.D.” SEE WRITERS, P15

In addition to Brown, RMCAD students Maya Dite-Shepard, LaVanna Holland, Christopher Jackson, Avery Lamb, Shania Ortegon, Erin Simenson, Gabriella Vagnoli, Justin Van Gend and Esther Yi created ornaments for the display.

“I made a mini replica of Red Rocks,” Brown said. “Some of our students incorporated a columbine, and another recreated one of our amazing Colorado sunsets.”

Students and staff used a variety of mediums and methods when making their ornaments, including sculpture, painting and 3-D printing technology.

Presented by the National Park Service and National Park Foundation, the National Christmas Tree Lighting first started on Christmas Eve in 1923, when President Calvin Coolidge lit a Christmas tree in front of 3,000 visitors.

“It is a great honor for our school to be chosen to participate in this event on behalf of the state of Colorado,” said Chris Spohn, president of RMCAD. SEE READER, P15

Brandstetter, adult services librarian. The retreat will feature awardwinning authors speaking during the sessions.

Local independent bookstores like the Tattered Cover offer large writers resources section, and make a point to feature locally published authors.

“Supporting writing, stories, and information is our core mission, along with connecting readers to the books they are looking for,” said Heather Duncan, director of marketing and

events at the Tattered Cover. “Aspiring authors often become published authors and their books may one day be on our shelves. Writer are also some of our most valued customers.”

Organizations like Lighthouse and Castle Rock Writers offer more regular meetings in addition to special events and conferences. These regular offerings give participants a chance to fully develop their writing and stories.

“We offer a variety of workshops and classes year-round, from eight-week

workshops where students submit and critique each other’s work to one-day intensives that focus on a single element of the writing craft, like plot or character development,” Dahl said. “All of our classes are taught by local working writers, like Eleanor Brown (who wrote the New York Times bestseller ‘The Weird Sisters’) and David Wroblewski (who wrote the bestselling and Oprah Book Club novel ‘The Story of Edgar Sawtelle’).”

Castle Rock takes a more locally focused approach, and covers the difficulties of getting published, especially in a small market like Denver.

“People don’t realize how much of getting published is marketing oneself,” Aldridge-Dennis said. “You have to do a lot of that work yourself, at writers’ fairs, farmers markets, and other event. You have to sell yourself.”

Both Aldridge-Dennis and Dahl said the writing process requires a lot of determination, and commitment to sticking to it, especially when things get discouraging.

“Workshopping your writing or studying an element of craft can also open you up to new perspectives and ideas for your work,” Dahl said.

“Workshops and classes are great for the community — a forum for discussing writing with people who enjoy writing.”

event costs $34.99 for adults and $13.99 for children.

For writers of all ages, skill levels, and genres of interest, there are options to perfect their craft, get feedback, and receive help pursuing a publishing deal.

“The goal is to support writers who are just starting and those who have been published locally before,” said Alice Aldridge-Dennis, president and conference director of the Castle Rock Writers. “Most of us have a story to tell, and many people need help working on the art and craft of it.”

Many local libraries offer programs for writers to get feedback on their work. According to Rebecca Winning, communications coordinator with Jeffco Public Libraries, the Evergreen Library does a Come Write In program on the last Tuesday of the month, for the sharing of writing. In January, the Arvada Library is starting Hard Times writing workshops to help people deal with difficult times, and the Golden Library is starting a series of workshops for writers age 60 and older.

In the south metro area, Englewood Public Library is hosting a two-day writers retreat, according to Michelle

“Our campus holds so much talent, and we are excited to showcase the ornaments that our students and faculty members have created for the America Celebrates display,” Spohn continued.

Music for the soul at the Ogden French multi-instrumentalist FKJ’s debut album, “French Kiwi Juice,” was released in March of this year, and has quickly become one of my favorite albums of 2017. It’s an enchanting blend of electronic, R&B, funk and world music, and sounds great at a party, or just coming through your headphones.

At 9 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 14, FKJ will be swinging by The Ogden Theatre, 935 E. Colfax Ave. If his live show is anything like his album, audiences are in for a blissedout experience. Tickets are still available, and can be purchased at www. ogdentheatre.com.

Santa Claus on the Rocks There are opportunities all over town to meet Santa Claus, and make sure he knows what your children want for Christmas. But it’s hard to top seeing the jolly old elf at the country’s best music venue.

Families can have Brunch with Santa from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 17 at Red Rocks Amphitheater, 18300 W. Alameda Parkway.

In addition to photo ops with Santa, there will be holiday games and crafts for the children, a made-to-order omelet station and waffle and hot chocolate bars, as well as a specialty children’s buffet. Children can eat free if they bring a gift for a child in need.

Making handmade ornaments in the Furnace Furnace Glassworks is one of Lakewood’s many creative hidden gems, and has built up quite the reputation over the years for its intricate and detailed work.

For the holidays, the studio, 11354 W. 13th Ave. Suite 6, is hosting a Make Your Own Ornament Extravaganza from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 17.

The owners of Furnace will help guests select the colors they like, apply the color to the molten glass, shape the bubble and assist with adding the hook to hang it on a tree.

There will also be pre-made ornaments and other items made by Furnace for sale, and 10 percent of net sales on products and workshop fees will be donated to creativity and arts programming at Brown Elementary and The Boys School of Denver, part of the Denver Public Schools system.

The event is free to watch and costs $35 to make an ornament. For more information, visit www.furnaceglassworks.com/make-your-own-ornamentworkshop.html.

A Christmas miracle at Su Teatro For those looking for a story of faith during the holidays, Su Teatro Cultural and Performing Arts Center brings the pageantry of a small hill called Tepeyacatl, where 57-year-old Juan Diego has a vision of the Virgin Mary.

“The Miracle at Tepeyac” runs at the performing arts center, 721 Santa Fe Drive, through Dec. 23.

The play calls audiences to question what it means to serve a higher purpose and ponder how they can help other people. The music will move

South Suburban Parks and Recreation and the City of Littleton will offer free Christmas tree recycling at two locations: Willow Spring Service Center, 7100 S. Holly St., Centennial, and Cornerstone Park, 5150 S. Windermere St., Littleton.

Trees are accepted for recycling from sunrise to sunset from Dec. 26 to Jan. 15 in the parking lot at Cornerstone, or in the designated enclosure by the front gate at Willow Spring.

All decorations need to be removed from the tree, including lights, ornaments, garland, tinsel and stands. If the tree is wrapped in a plastic bag, it must be removed at drop off. Flocked

M

Colorado Community Media selects six athletes from area high schools each week as “Standout Performers.” Preference is given to athletes making their debut on the list.

our years ago, I was at Legend High School when Highlands Ranch girls basketball coach Caryn Jarocki won her milestone 500th career game.

I was at Arapahoe on Dec. 7 when Jarocki’s Falcons defeated the Warriors, 62-27, to notch her 600th win in 33 seaOVERTIME sons of Colorado high school coaching.

She has the most wins for a girls coach in Colorado with a 600-163 record, including a 449-90 mark and seven state championships in 22 seasons at Highlands Ranch. She Jim Benton coached for 11 seasons at Colorado Academy.

There were 600 signs and a big cake as former players, current players and fans celebrated after the win over Arapahoe. Milestone victories are special, but 600th appeared to mean a little more for Jarocki who said she was looking toward win 601 and even victory number 700.

“I was more nervous for this one, I don’t know why,” Jarocki said. “I guess because Jerry (Arapahoe coach Knafelc) always puts a good team out there on the floor.”

The post-game celebrations seemed to effect Jarocki more than a unforced turnover by one of her players.

“I’m really proud of my school for helping me celebrate and all my coaches I’ve had over the years and all the great players I’ve had have that really made this a fun celebration,” said Jarocki, who then offered her success secret.

“It took hard work and paying attention to detail and great kids that are willing to listen to me,” she said. “I always loved playing the game and I always wanted to coach it. I love giving the kids my love for the game.”

Tradition prevails in grid alignments Hopefully we can say goodbye to waterfall alignments and welcome back tradition. The Colorado High School Activities Association football committee must have been humming the melody to “Tradition” from “Fiddler on the Roof ” when it announced its proposed lineups for 2018-19 football seasons.

The former Centennial League almost looks the same and many Jefferson County schools will play conference games against each other.

Cameron Gail went above and beyond

Arapahoe junior Cameron Gail, right, is the Colorado Community Media South Metro Boys Soccer Player of the Year.

Warriors junior named South Metro Soccer Player of Year

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

There are several descriptions that could depict the soccer season recently completed by Arapahoe junior Cameron Gail.

Gail led all Class 5A goal scorers with 25 and tied for third with 53 points.

He was selected as the 2017 Colorado Community Media South Metro Boys Soccer Player of the Year, and Warriors coach Mark Hampshire had the best portrayal for Gail’s individual contributions.

“He has a banner year and also a breakout year,” said Hampshire. “It was a bit of a surprise. Last year he was a sophomore and

BENTON FROM PAGE 23

Five Highlands Ranch schools are in the same loop along with Castle View. Several north area teams won’t have to schedule non-league games against nearby rivals since a couple leagues have north area teams.

All this makes sense. The waterfall format sounded good but logic was absent. Open enrollment is still a problem that helps the rich teams get richer but the CHSAA can’t do anything about the state legislative regulation.

These proposed leagues still have to be approved by the Legislative Council in January.

The council kept geography, school district rivalries and struggling programs in mind with its proposed

ended up playing a position he wasn’t necessarily used to. He played some at midfield and didn’t get a ton of time.

“He really picked it up at the end of the year and in the playoffs. This year he just played phenomenally.

He had a nose for the goal, found ways to help teammates and the kid played incredibly.”

Gail scored six goals and had two assists during his sophomore season.

alignments. The proposal heading to the Legislative Council includes expanding the 5A state playoffs from 16 to 24 teams and a change to start practice a week earlier, which could allow for a bye week in the schedules.

In Class 5A there will be five leagues with six teams and one conference with 10 schools, which includes schools like Northglenn and Westminster that have struggled recently in football.

“This will provide the 10 teams with an opportunity to have competitive equity,” said Westminster School District athletic director Gabe Trujillo. “Participation will improve, hopefully there will be a decrease in injuries, and proximity is critical to reduce class disruption and early leaves. If we did not address the inequitable competitive conference we could very well lose football as a program.”

“One of my goals was to be one of the leading goal scorers on my team,” said Gail. “I was definitely happy with how many goals I scored. I think what I did preseason was a lot more beneficial for me. I was practicing with better teams and got more practice over the summer.

“I worked a lot on one vs. ones with another defender. I like taking people on and I like shooting. I have a friend that I would go

Jefferson County School District Athletic Director Jim Thyfault was pleased with the proposed leagues.

“It was been several years since our schools have been together in a league,” he said. “Hopefully this revives the excitement in our communities like we have seen in the past.”

Still, everything seems acceptable but not perfect.

“I absolutely hate we are not in the same conference as Castle View,” said Douglas County coach Gene Hill.

Mountain Vista coach Ric Cash also weighed in.

“I don’t like playing Valor since they are in our back yard,” he said.

“Traditionally, CHSAA put the private schools in a league outside of their immediate recruiting area, but I guess that has changed. Since they are in the Jeffco league in everything else, I don’t understand why they didn’t go there in football as well.

one-on-one against. And I have a good friend who is a keeper as well for Arapahoe and I would take a few shots and that helped me get better because he is a very good keeper.”

Arapahoe beat Vista Ridge 6-1 early in the season and Gail scored all six goals for the Warriors.

“Against Vista Ridge, that was my best game and that helped me realize that this would be a good season,” said Gail.

Mullen could have then come to our league.

“As it is, the Douglas County schools now have two of the private schools in their leagues, which seems wrong, but I understand the rationale of trying to create competitive balance in the south. The problem is the `competitive balance’ will shift now that the waterfall is gone, but we’ll have to deal with that in the next cycle. The group of 10 thing makes sense on some levels, but it creates some brutal schedules for everyone else and I think everyone is a little worried about depth right now, thinking they are going to get beat up before the playoffs. I suppose we’ll see.”

CHI: Fix CHI Franciscan St. Joe’s Financial Aid For years, patients, caregivers, and community leaders have called on CEO Ketul Patel to fix the broken charity care system at CHI Franciscan St. Joseph Hospital in Tacoma, WA.

The News Tribune 09/05/17

State sues Tacoma’s St. Joseph Medical Center, saying it illegally withheld charity care

The state is suing St. Joseph Medical Center in Tacoma for allegedly failing to provide charity care as required by law.

Now, the broken system has drawn the attention of Washington’s state Attorney General who is suing St. Joe’s for failing to provide adequate financial aid to patients.

It’s time for CHI to step up and make sure patients who get care at St. Joseph’s aren’t subjected to crushing medical debt and aggressive collections.
