Another avenue for RRCC students to further higher education New transfer option makes four-year art school degree more attainable

BY STAFF REPORT

Graphic Design and Print Production students at Red Rocks Community College (RRCC) now have another way to apply their Associates Degree credits toward a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) Degree.

RRCC and Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design (RMCAD) have updated their articulation agreement and will now allow students receiving their AAS (Associate of Applied Science) in both of those disciplines to transfer up to 60 credits toward a BFA in Graphic Design.

Jim Reiman, Chair of Graphic Design Photography at RMCAD, spoke about the change.

“Red Rocks Community College is a fantastic partner with us here at RMCAD,” he said. “We are so

Students with a minimum 2.0 cumulative grade point average (GPA), C, or better in liberal arts classes, and a B or better in studio arts classes, will now be guaranteed transfer admission to RMCAD. Red Rocks Community College’s Visual Audio and Media Arts Department (VAMA) presents a range of certificates and degrees in Graphic Design, Photography, Video Productions and Journalism.

excited to see how this articulation agreement will help interested RRCC students transition into our RMCAD Graphic Design community.”

Dorothy Welty, RRCC Dean of Instruction, said the school is excited to add another option for students to pursue for their Graphic Design BFA through RMCAD. “We have had a proud tradition of preparing our AAS graduates for employment in their specific occupation from industry experts,” she said.

A challenging new job Jeffco Sheriff’s Office commander wants to create quality relationships in the foothills

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The new Jeffco Sheriff’s Office commander responsible for the foothills has an impressive collection of Challenge Coins.

For Commander Kevin Bost, it’s not about the quantity of coins but the quality. Each has a story — reminding him of his 16 years with the Jeffco Sheriff’s Office and eight years in the military.

His philosophy about the Challenge Coins is akin to his approach to his new position at the Evergreen precinct office — the quality of the relationships the Sheriff’s Office fosters among the community will aid in a win-win scenario for everyone.

“The mountain community is amazing,” he said. “I’m a huge community person, and I believe in teamwork. The big thing is working with schools, fire agencies and other groups because we are all on the same team.”

He believes in face-to-face meetings to get to know people in the community, noting, “We need to engage the community so they will engage with us. People need to see

Bost, who is reflected in his desk, shows three of the Challenge Coins he’s collected since joining the sheriff’s office.

the person behind the badge.”

Bost, a 2001 Platte Canyon High School graduate, explained he had wanted to work for the Jeffco Sheriff’s Office since he was a kid — his dream job. He began his career in law enforcement at the Jeffco jail in 2005, then worked as a patrolman including time in the foothills, then back to the jail. In 2018, he worked in the crimes-against-children division and then oversaw the sex-offenders division before his new position here.

He also was in the Colorado Army National Guard from 2010-2018. He is married and has a daughter and two sons.

Bost took over the position here on April 25, and he’s enthusiastic about being back in the foothills and connecting with residents, business owners, workers and visitors.

Bost has 162 Challenge Coins with

a third to a half from the military and the remainder from law enforcement. His three most precious Challenge Coins are from Sheriff Jeff Shrader when Bost started with JCOS, from his last military unit, the 147th Headquarters Support

Company based in Fort Collins, and from the post commander general at Fort Lee, Virginia.

“I never thought I’d be a coin guy,” he quipped.

Following her heart Evergreen veterinarian moving to Kentucky to spend more time with horses

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Evergreen veterinarian Lisa Warren is scratching something off her bucket list.

She’s retiring from Mountain Vet to Pet after 19 years and moving to Lexington, Kentucky. There, she plans to ride her horses — a lot — and is thinking about getting involved in hunter-jumper competitions, possibly in conjunction with her son Liam, 11. There may be more polo in her future, too.

“Even though I want dogs and cats in my life forever, I want more horses,” said Warren, 54. “I want to really focus on riding and maybe competing for the next 10 years or so. (Lexington) is where everything (horse related) is right at my doorstep.”

Her last day at her clinic on Stagecoach Boulevard will be July 29, and she will move her four dogs, two cats, a fish and two horses — plus her son and their belongings — to a farm she bought last year in Kentucky.

Veterinarian Kristin Camp, who has been working at Mountain Vet to Pet for four years, and veterinar-

ian Olivia Baudrand will continue the clinic.

“I will cry like a baby when I leave,” Warren said. “I have enjoyed every day I have worked here.”

She explained that when she turned 50, she began thinking about her bucket list, and her favorite activities have to do with horses, so she decided to retire now.

“I will take the time off now while I have my health and the physical ability to do what I want to do,” she said.

Farewell party On July 10, clients met at Lucky Penny Ranch in Evergreen for a farewell party to express gratitude for her compassionate care of their pets.

“My dog was sick, and I texted Lisa at 2 a.m.,” said client Judy O’Brien. “I got a response at 2:15 a.m. That’s how caring she is.”

Jackie Bell, a client who also is president of the Evergreen Animal Protective League, remembers when Warren would take Bell’s sick pets home with her to monitor them overnight. She added that Warren and many area veterinarians are incredibly generous in donating their time and services to the rescued pets EAPL helps.

Clients said she is tenacious, and she treats their pets like her own.

“She picked up on aspects of our pets’ personalities and issues,” said client Julie Brox. “She’s amazingly knowledgeable. We will miss her, but we are happy for her.”

Darlyne and Jay Handley said Warren was one of the first people they met when they moved to Evergreen 13 years ago.

“She’s done great things for our animals,” Jay said, “especially the geriatric care.”

Client Amy Born said she was on vacation in Mexico when one of her dogs needed to be euthanized.

“She tracked me down in Mexico to get our permission,” Born said.

“She loved our dogs.”

Tanya and Duncan Doyle of Den-

ver travel to Evergreen to have Warren take care of their pets. Tanya explained that she knew Warren through other avenues, and when they were unhappy with another veterinarian, they sought her out.

“I was sold,” Tanya said. “Lisa has given us around-the-clock care.

She’s been a godsend.”

veterinarian since she was 5 years old. She came to the United States from England at 18 as a nanny and never left. After a variety of jobs, she attended the University of Georgia veterinary school, graduating in 2001, noting that it was “the best decision I ever made.”

She worked at Beaver Brook Pet Center before deciding to open a mobile clinic to provide at-home care near the end of a pet’s life. She offered that service after losing her own dog, Archie.

“That was my first big loss,” she said. “I was so grief stricken. It made me rethink what my clients went through to bring their pets to the clinic to be euthanized. If I went to them, they could say goodbye to their pets while at home.”

But then, once pets pass away, owners get kitties and puppies, so Warren opened a clinic.

Archie’s death made such an impression on Warren that the formal name of her company is BELLA Veterinary, which stands for her now 27-year-old son Brendan, another dog Emma, and Lisa Loves Archie.

“I’m still honored to be a part of that,” she said of euthanasia. “It’s a huge loss for people. It’s an impactful day. It is for me, too. I’ve known all of these dogs their entire lives.

It’s a difficult thing for clients to go through, and I want to make that difficult transition as peaceful and respectful as possible.”

She says many of her clients have been with her since she opened 19 years ago.

“I have been with them for their first and next generation of pets or even third generation,” Warren said. “What draws us all together is we have a really strong bond with our pets. Our pets are our family. I think that’s why we connect because I feel that they are my extended family. We work as a team together rather than me dictating what they should do.”

Run-off elections work better than new ranked-choice voting

W

ith passage of HB 1071 earlier this year, the legislature authorized municipalities in Colorado to use ranked-choice voting in non-partisan elections. I hope those municipalities will be skeptical of the new authority and not implement it unless and until they’ve evaluated the benefits and problems that process and system could create.

In ranked-choice voting, instead of simply voting for their preferred candidate, voters can rank multiple candidates in an election. If no one gets a majority of first place votes, then votes are recalculated and candidates eliminated until someone ends up with a majority.

I had concerns about this method before New York City used rankedchoice voting in its recent election,

but the confusion and delayed ability to name a winner that the process caused reinforced my concerns.

Proponents argue that ranked-choice voting removes the need for and cost of run-off elections and makes it less Columnist likely that extreme candidates will be elected with small pluralities. Those are admirable goals and rankedchoice voting could be a way to achieve them, but I think elections with run-offs of the top two candidates to elect municipal officials in non-partisan elections is a better way to go.

GREG ROMBERG

When a field is narrowed to two final candidates, the additional scrutiny by voters and the media as well as the additional exposure of the finalists often provide a clear vision for voters of the final candidates which can allow better candidates to be elected. While we should always look for ways to reduce government costs, the expense of a run-off election if it results in voters having more information and making the best possible choices is a small price to pay.

In memoriam I was saddened to learn of the passing of Bob Cox last month. Bob was the owner and publisher of most of the newspapers in Jefferson County in the 1990s. I first met him when he was part of the Colorado

Press Association committee that selected me to lobby for the organization.

As I think back on my over 20 years representing CPA, I remember Bob as the epitome of a newspaper man. Whether it was his dogged commitment to hold government officials’ feet to the fire to making sure public resources were properly used and corruption was not tolerated or my memories of him wearing a trench coat and carrying a reporter’s note pad, he always was the reflection of a consummate journalist.

He influenced me in ways he never knew and represented a golden era in community journalism.

Greg Romberg is president of Romberg and Associates. He lives in Evergreen with his wife, Laurie.

Are you Ready for Wildfire?

W

ildfires have impacted mountain communities for a long time. In centuries past, wildfires burned unhindered across our landscape.

These fires consumed dead brush and fallen trees, and opened up travel routes for wild animals.

Their heat caused dormant seeds to germinate, and their ashes nourished them. Gorgeous wildflowers and fresh green shoots appeared after each fire, providing premium food and habitat for wild animals and birds. Because these fires happened frequently, they burned “cool” and limited damage to the environment. They kept our forests and grasslands healthy, and prevented the devastating fires we see today.

Firefighters are passionate about saving homes. They know the heartache a fire can bring.

But in a major wildfire, every blaze can’t be tackled right away.

And not every house can be saved. Why? Because firefighting resources will be stretched too thin. And it may be too dangerous to try to save each home.

Many people assume that during a wildfire a fire engine will be parked at every house. More likely, one engine will be assigned to an entire road, and it might stop at your house for a few minutes. Whether or not that engine visits your house depends mostly on your preparation. In a large fire, firefighters must “triage” homes. They will survey the neighborhood to see which homes are prepared and can be saved, and which are too dangerous to try to defend. If they see a wide driveway, defensible space around the house, and a place to

turn around, they may attempt to protect your home.

A garden hose left in clear view, a ladder propped against the home’s exterior, and rakes and shovels lined up for quick use all assist firefighters in protecting Columnist your home.

Many homes may be lost to wildfire after firefighters move on to protect other threatened strucutures, because smoldering embers were hiding under decks, in gutters, under roof tiles, and inside vents. Most wildfires start in windy conditions, and create more wind of their own. Burning embers or “firebrands” carried by wind can travel a mile from the main fire.

And the wind will drive those embers into every nook and cranny they can find.

ROOF. A wood shake roof is your home’s worst enemy. Replace your shake roof with one made of composition, metal, cement, or tile as soon as you can.

Make sure all little openings are sealed, to prevent burning embers from invading.

GUTTERS. Gutters and places where roof angles meet can trap burning embers. Keep your roof free of leaves, needles, and other debris, to help prevent a fire on your roof. If more than 1/4 of your roof is on fire, firefighters cannot try to save your home as resources are very limited.

SIDING. Wood siding is fuel for a wildfire. But walls made of stucco, brick, or cement/Hardie

DAN HATLESTAD

board will resist heat and flames.

EAVES. With wind rushing against your house, hot air and burning embers can get trapped under its eaves. Boxing in the undersides of your eaves will reduce this serious risk.

DECKS. Burning embers love to hide under decks and porches -- and then catch homes on fire.

Prevent this by enclosing the undersides of your deck with non-flammable material or a fine wire mesh. Clear everything flammable out from under it.

CHIMNEYS. Chimney and stovepipe openings should be covered with wire mesh 1/4 inch or smaller, and an approved spark arrestor cap. Be sure to clean out your chimney every fall.

VENTS. To keep burning embers out, all vent openings should be covered with 1/4-inch metal wire mesh, or smaller.

WINDOWS. Radiant heat from a wildfire can cause windows to shatter. It can also melt window frames. Then burning embers can blow straight inside and start new fires. Large windows, including glass doors, are very vulnerable. Your best choice is doublepaned or tempered glass, with small panes and metal frames.

PROPANE AND OTHER TANKS. Tanks should be at least 30 feet from your house. Clear all flammables 10 feet away from tanks. A fire near a fuel tank can cause it to heat up and vent with flames. Firefighters will steer clear of such dangers.

INSURANCE. Contact your insurance agent to confirm coverage is adequate for your house, outbuildings, personal belongings, and vehicles

DRIVEWAY. A driveway all the way around your house is ideal. It provides easy access for firefighters, a place for them to work -- and serves as a fire break between your home and the wildlands. Whatever shape your driveway, keep brush and branches trimmed back from it, up to 15 feet high, for fire engines’ access. A dense canopy of trees and brush close to and over your driveway signal danger to firefighters triaging homes in your neighborhood.

In recent decades we have interrupted this natural cycle of fire with suppression of all wildfires.

We have built so many homes in the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) that fires are no longer free to do their job. Wildfires have been vigorously fought to protect these homes and the increasing population in wildland areas has made doing “prescribed fire” difficult and controversial. The consequence? Our county has a huge buildup of flammable vegetation. Most areas have missed several cycles of normal wildfires. The quantity of brush and unhealthy trees is unprecedented. This means that wildfires in the future will burn much more intensely, frequently with greater damage than they did in the past. We must learn to live with wildfires -- and take action to protect ourselves, our families and the firefighters who respond to wildfire.

Keeping Safety Top of Mind This Summer

S

ummer is upon us, and people are heading outside to enjoy the warmer weather, especially now that approximately 140 million have been fully vaccinated in the United States and are eagerly looking forward to reconnecting with friends and family.

Unfortunately, higher temperatures and outdoor activities bring additional health challenges and people of all ages — and especially adults aged 65 or older — risk dehydration, overexposure to sun, risk of drowning and other potential seasonal dangers.

Here are some general summer safety tips to keep in mind as we head into summer: Staying hydrated in the heat Take measures to remain hydrated during the hot summer months. Increase your fluid intake regardless of activity and don’t wait until you are thirsty to drink. A general rule of thumb is to drink enough non-alcoholic fluids each hour to maintain normal color and output of urine.

Heavy sweating depletes your body of salt and minerals, however, do not take salt tablets unless directed by your doctor.

Protecting your skin from the sun Most types of skin cancer are caused by too much exposure to ultraviolet rays that can damage your skin cells. It’s important to remember that UV rays can also reach you on cloudy days and tend to be the strongest from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Daylight Saving Time. They can also reflect off sand, water, snow and other surfaces.

The UV forecast YOUR is a good way to HEALTH prepare yourself for how strong UV rays will be in your area.

If the UV index is three or higher in your area, you should take steps to protect your skin from the sun.

Some of the ways to protect your Todd Wisser skin from the sun include: · Staying in the shade. Stay under an umbrella, tree or other shady shelter. Even though you are in the shade, your best bet to protect your skin in the sun is to wear sunscreen or protective clothing when you are outside. · Wearing protective clothing and/or a hat and sunglasses. When possible, wear long-sleeved shirts, pants and skirts that can provide protection from UV rays. Clothes made from tightly woven fabric provide the best protection. Wearing a hat that has a wide brim all the way around and can shade your face, ears, and the back of your neck offers the most protection. A tightly woven fabric, such as canvas works the best to provide shade from UV rays. Finally, sunglasses can protect your eyes from UV rays as well as the tender skin around the eyes. · Applying sunscreen: Applying

a thick layer of broad-spectrum sunscreen that blocks both UVA and UVB rays is important before you go outside or expose your skin in the sun. The Food and Drug Administration does not recommend sunscreen for babies who are six months or younger. It is recommended to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least 15 SPF or higher. Make sure to check your sunscreen’s expiration date as shelf life diminishes when sunscreen containers have been exposed to hot temperatures. Make sure to reapply your sunscreen every two hours if you are staying out in the sun and after sweating, swimming or toweling off.

It’s also important for older adults to protect their skin from the sun.

Studies have shown that less than half of older adults protect their skin from the sun when outside for an hour or more on a warm, sunny day.

Staying safe in the water According to the World Health Organization, drowning is the third leading cause of unintentional injury death worldwide, accounting for 7%of all injury-related deaths.

Some of the most important ways to prevent water injuries or accidents include: · Learn swimming skills, whether it be you or your children, taking formal swimming lessons can reduce your risk of drowning. · Wear a life jacket when you are on a boat, paddle board, jet ski,

water ski or any other water-based activity. Pool toys that are filled with air or foam, such as noodles or inner tubes, should not be used in lieu of a life jacket as they are not designed to keep swimmers safe. · Practice and learn CPR. When performed by bystanders during an accident, CPR has been shown to save lives and improve outcomes in drowning victims. The sooner CPR is started, the better chance of improved outcomes. · Have a mobile phone on hand to call for help in case of an emergency. · Use a buddy system and supervise when in or around water.

Swimming with a friend, or having a responsible adult watch young children are great ways to supervise water activity and reduce the risk of drowning. It’s important to find water sites that have a lifeguard present when possible. · Avoid drinking alcohol before swimming, boating or engaging in other water activities and do not consume alcohol while supervising children. · Be aware of and adhere to posted signage on warnings and beach closures due to dangerous conditions. · Prepare for weather. Strong winds and thunderstorms can be very dangerous when in or around water. Always prepare by knowing local weather conditions and forecasts before boating or swimming.

If you are outside, watch for danger-

Ducks on sale for annual Dam Ducky Derby

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It’s time to get your ducks in a row, so to speak, and purchase those yellow little quackers for the Dam Ducky Derby.

The 12th annual event provides cash prizes to the first lucky ducks that reach Highland Haven Creekside Inn after the 1 p.m. duck drop on Saturday, Aug. 7, below the dam in downtown Evergreen.

“We are really trying to put on a party for the community to say downtown Evergreen survived the pandemic thanks to everyone,” said Chelsea Treinen, a board member of the Evergreen Downtown Business Association, which organizes the event.

She promised a carnival atmosphere in downtown Evergreen with concessions, live music, face painting and balloon sculptures between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.

The Dam Ducky Derby is important for the organization because it helps fund another downtown Evergreen community event: the Holiday Walk on the first Friday of December.

“This is kind of ideal,” Treinen said. “You buy ducks, and then you enjoy this event and another event.”

In addition, according to Treinen, a percentage of the proceeds are

Kyle, a retired physical education teacher, uses positive reinforcement with the players, ages 5 to 10, no matter what their skill level. During the camps last week, compliments included “Good hustle,” “Great job following the ball” and “You’ve hit the ball five times, make it six.” All

Sofie Nelson, 10, who attends Marshdale Elementary, said the tennis clinic has been fun, and her favorite part is serving.

Parents were happy that their children were away from their electronic devices and outside getting exercise while learning a new sport.

Joni Castorino of Genesee brought Bodhi, 5, to learn to play tennis because he was starting to be interested in sports.

“This looked like a good fit,” she added.

Rhonda Kemmis watched her grandsons Calvin, 7, and Connor, 5, during the clinic. In fact, she gave them tennis rackets as Christmas gifts. Also a retired physical education teacher, Kemmis understands the importance of getting kids involved in sports.

“It’s such a phenomenal cardio sport and a social sport,” she said of tennis. “I can’t wait until I get to play with them.”

Liking literacy learning Students in JSEL program improve reading techniques

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Bergen Meadow Elementary School has been alive with literacy this summer.

Forty students in kindergarten through fifth grade are getting additional help with reading through the Jeffco Summer of Early Learning program. The program, which also was offered at West Jefferson Elementary School, has been at schools down the hill for many years, and because of additional grant funding, it was offered here for the first time.

JSEL is helping with the adage that children learn to read by third grade, and then they read to learn.

Those in kindergarten through third grade focus primarily on literacy, while the fourth graders and fifth graders focus on literacy and project-based learning.

“JSEL has been around for many years scooping up students over the summer who would benefit from small, individualized, intensive literacy instruction,” said third-grade teacher Kim Levine, who acted as the JSEL principal at Bergen Meadow. “After COVID, (the program) also makes up for lost time for some students.”

The idea is to teach reading skills from different directions: tapping out sounds on students’ arms, using hand movements to put sounds together, writing letters in salt, spelling words while moving — whatever it takes to get students to become better readers.

The program is data driven, Levine said, and even in smallgroup lessons, teachers tailor questions and exercises to individual students. Interventionist Christine Thompson, for example, keeps track of skills each student has mastered and what areas need more work.

“She knows exactly how to target individualized instruction,” Levine explained.

Bergen Valley third grade teacher Kim Mott said the teachers have gotten creative to teach literacy skills.

“We picked up where they stopped at the end of school,” Mott said. “We

continue where they left off.”

There was an application process for the program to limit it to students it could serve the best, Levine said. About 10 students are in each class, and they come from the Bergens, Rocky Mountain Academy of Evergreen, and Wilmot and Parmalee elementary schools.

Teachers agree that it’s good for both teachers and students to meet students from other schools.

The students say they enjoy the program, which has been meeting daily since June 7 and ended last week.

Rocky Day, a Parmalee third grader, runs to the school door each morning, eager to be at school, and the teachers enjoy his enthusiasm for the program.

Third grader Taryn Herbels said she liked reading because it “helps me learn stuff,” adding that some of

the reading assignments had been challenging, but they’re getting easier.

One of the program’s benefits for the teachers is the additional training and materials they receive that can be applied during the regular school year, second-grade teacher Michele Dollar noted.

CeCe Walker, who taught kindergartners and first graders in the program, said she loved the small class size, so she had time to get to know students.

“They are all so super fun and intelligent,” she said. “They make my day.”

Students in Walker’s class said they loved books: Mia O’Neil enjoying books about bears and foxes, Luke Deramo liking Spiderman books and Sloan Pike preferring aniSEE LITERACY, P15

Levine lauded the staff that began planning for the program immediately after school ended in May. “The teachers here are dedicated, compassionate and purpose driven,” Levine said. “We all here feel it is

our joy and passion to be here. This enthusiasm and excitement for learning translates to our students and families.”

Levine said it was just as much about teaching literacy as it is about having fun while learning.

“The bottom line is how joyful everybody is,” she said. “They are so happy to be learning. I am so proud of this program.”

Jeffco, Clear Creek and Gilpin to receive millions in opioid settlement State AG said money a chance to transform way counties deal with opioids

BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When it comes to the current state of the opioid crisis in Jefferson County, there is both good news and bad, state and county leaders say.

First, the bad.

Jeffco Sheriff Jeff Shrader said the county is seeing not only increased presence of fentanyl but an increased number of “naxolone saves” both in the jail and throughout the county, which he believes is indicative of increasing presence and use of fentanyl and other opioids in the community. Naxolone (which is sold under the brand name Narcan) is a drug used to counter the effect of an opioid overdose.

“It subsided for a period of time but in the course of the last six months to a year, we have a Narcan save in the jail every week,” said Shrader. “And those are drugs that are on board with somebody when they get booked into the jail.”

Now the good news.

Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser told Shrader, the Jeffco

Commissioners and other county leaders on July 16 that Jefferson, Clear Creek and Gilpin counties are set to start receiving $1.3 million per year for the next 18 years in funds to address the opioid epidemic in those counties.

Those dollars, Weiser said, are coming from both litigation and negotiations that the state attorney general’s office, usually in collaboration with his counterparts in other states, has been engaging in with pharmaceutical companies that have contributed to the opioid epidemic.

In total, the state will be receiving $400 million from those companies, which include Johnson & Johnson, Purdue Pharmaceuticals and the corporate consulting firm McKinsey.

Although some of that money is being distributed to both the state and municipal governments, Weiser said the bulk of the settlement funds will go to regional bodies (Jefferson, Clear Creek and Gilpin counties constitute one of those regions).

Weiser said municipalities will also be able to send their share of the funds to those regional bodies if they do not believe they can effectively use the funds themselves.

Weiser said receiving these dollars is presenting counties with a one-time opportunity “to really

transform how you are dealing with the opioid epidemic” over the next 18 years.

“It could mean that five years from now instead of putting people in jail who are struggling with opioid addiction instead you have a sufficient treatment and recovery path,” he said. “It could mean that you have an effective educational awareness and prevention campaign so that people are less likely to start using and there’s also more openness to talking about this so they get help sooner if they do start.”

Weiser said one of the first steps for counties to begin spending the money is to determine who will be on the body that will oversee how the funds are spent.

That board will include representatives from each county government, health department and human services department as well as a representative from a city within the region with that city and representative rotating regularly. There will also be a representative from both one law enforcement agency and one court within the region. Finally, non-voting members will also offer expertise but not vote.

Brittany Pettersen, who represents portions of Lakewood and South Jeffco, in the Colorado State Senate said that receiving the funds

is both frustrating and disappointing.

“I think the projection of what we need to actually deal with this is $1 billion a year just in Colorado alone,” she said. “So just to put it in perspective, this is still a very small percentage of what is needed out there.”

Pettersen said she was recently named chair of the state’s behavioral healthcare and will be looking to work with the regional bodies to make sure that the funds are being used transparently and effectively and that counties are also setting up programs that will be able to be sustainably funded after the settlement funds are spent.

During the meeting, Weiser said he is confident that Jeffco has the infrastructure and resources to effectively use the funds and that he had advocated for Jeffco to be included in a region with Clear Creek and Gilpin counties, rather than just be a region by itself, because those smaller counties might not have the resources to effectively deploy the funds on their own.

“A tentpole county like Jefferson County that works with smaller counties I think is a winning formula,” he said.

Pickleball’s on an upswing Participation spiked during pandemic year

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When pickleball started becoming popular, it was a sport that helped aging adults get some exercise by combining aspects of tennis, badminton and table tennis onto one court.

Today, the sport remains popular among seniors, but the secret is out about how much fun the game is, and younger generations want a taste.

According to the Sport and Fitness Industry Association, pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in the nation, with participation increasing a little over 21% in 2020 as Americans searched for ways to stay active during the pandemic. In 2019, participation in the sport grew by 7%.

Evidence of the growing popularity of pickleball is not hard to find throughout the Denver metro area.

A new court is being installed on the east side of Centennial in Piney Creek. In Castle Rock, the new Cobblestone Park project will include six additional pickleball courts.

Luke Ruter, recreation coordinator for the Highlands Ranch Metro District, said one of the biggest challenges as pickleball grows in popularity is keeping up with demand.

“It really is a great sport for all ages,” he said. “It is also such a social sport where friendships grow and connections are made.”

In Highlands Ranch, on any given day, the distinct popping sound of paddle hitting ball can be heard as players of all ages battle it out.

While taking a break during one of the hottest days of summer, 19-year-old Heidi Haze said she is considered a newbie to pickleball.

“I started playing with a friend,” she said. “It looked cool and definitely has a lot more college kids playing. I have to say, the seniors have a lot to teach us. They are way better. It is like golf. It is easy to play,

EVERGREEN PICKLEBALL The Evergreen Park and Recreation District offers pickleball courts and classes. For more information, go to www.evergreenrecreation.com/177/ Pickleball but hard to get good at.”

Will Harris of Littleton said he saw people playing at local courts and became interested. Now, he is a regular who is open to learning the tricks of the trade from older players. Harris said he has learned a lot from Joe Billera, whom he calls his “pickleball grandpa.”

“I love the community connection I have gained by playing up here,” Harris said. “It is because of pickleball that I got a job. I would say I am a decent player, but there is always room for improvement. I just try to hold my own against the longtime players.”

Billera said he plays every day because he enjoys the game, comparing the necessary skill set to playing chess with a lot of motion.

The Apex Sports and Recreation Centers have worked over the years to help meet the demand of the growing sport. Headquartered in Arvada, the Apex Park and Recreation District has 24 courts throughout the area.

Katie Groke, marketing and communications director for Apex, said the courts are full and there is a “growing appetite” for the sport.

“Arvada has kind of become a pickleball hub because we have so many courts and draw residents from all over the region,” Groke said. “It has really become a wildly popular sport for all ages.”

Brad Stafford, athletics manager for South Suburban Parks and Recreation, said as younger players take up the sport, they are adding more tournaments and classes. The classes are always at maximum capacity, he said, while noting that the problem is getting qualified instructors.

“This is such a specialized sport

with certain rules that it is hard to find people to teach it,” he said.

In 2019, Stafford said, classes had about 80 participants. After last year, classes and programs have more than 200.

“The secret is out on this sport,” Stafford said. “It’s a sport you can easily play, find your skill level and always have plenty of players to compete against. No matter what age, it is a sport you pick up quickly, get exercise and it’s a lot of fun.”

Phyllis Tumey, a retired resident of Castle Rock, said she first learned about the sport from a friend who had played at a retirement community in Arizona. After learning how to play, Tumey said, she immediately loved it.

In 2012, Tumey said, there were not a lot of courts in Castle Rock, but a growing number of seniors wanted to play. Tumey said she and another resident worked with the town to turn more tennis courts and

in-line skating rinks into pickleball courts.

Tumey said fellow player Jim Johnson took the lead on making pickleball a regular attraction in Castle Rock. Now, the town has seven permanent pickleball courts with others under construction.

“At first I couldn’t believe it was such a fast-growing sport,” Tumey said. “It is easy for seniors to get outside and get some exercise. You can play a game in 30 minutes, and it does not require a lot of equipment. Really, it is supposed to be a non-contact sport, but we’ve had some run-ins with it becoming so competitive.”

As pickleball’s popularity has grown, it is now featured in televised tournaments, and there are efforts to make it an official Olympic sport.

Brett Peterson, 19, shows that pickleball is not just a sport for seniors anymore.

Evergreen Fire/Rescue briefs

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Volunteers donate fire pit ring The Evergreen Fire/Rescue volunteers have donated a fire pit ring to the residents at Indian Creek Ranch west of Evergreen.

For many years, the 2,300-acre ranch has been the location of what EFR calls Wildland Weekend each spring during which firefighters train to become better wildland firefighters, according to EFR spokeswoman Stacee Martin.

“We do the training in early spring normally when fire danger is low,” she explained. “We practice how to put out a real fire, so firefighters understand what it really means when there’s grass or slash on fire.

This place has been fabulous over the years.”

She explained that the firefighters camp out during Wildland Weekend, and when it’s safe, they have a campfire to cook hot dogs and s’mores.

So EFR felt it was only right to give back to the property owners by creating a fire pit ring.

The ring was recently installed with a plaque that states: “In grateful appreciation to the Indian Creek Ranch Association for your continued dedication and support of Evergreen Fire/Rescue. Your support has helped shape our wildland achievements.”

Wildland Weekend allows Evergreen firefighters to become better wildland firefighters.

“It has made us a much, much better fire department when it comes to wildfires,” Martin said. “We are

honored and delighted that they have let us come back year after year.”

Community risk reduction coordinator Evergreen Fire/Rescue is hiring a community risk reduction coordinator, called a must-have position for the department by Fire Chief Mike Weege.

“As part of our strategic plan, we outlined a need for this position as a way to get every department involved with community risk reduction,” Weege told the fire board on July 13. “This position can cover a lot of those things that each division is trying to do on top of the jobs they do” such as organizing Health

& Safety Day, CPR trainings, community outreach and school visits.

This person also will do some home inspections.

The position announcement asks for candidates to have three years of firefighting experience including wildland fire. Experience as an organization spokesperson is desired.

The salary for the full-time position will be between $55,000 and $65,000 a year.

While the person who is hired will be a trained firefighter, he or she won’t be a first responder, Weege said.

“We want this person to be the face of the organization in a lot of areas,” he added.

Parking program in Morrison hits some snags Business owner is concerned about regular customers, employee parking

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Morrison’s paid parking program that started July 1 is seeing some growing pains as business owners wrestle with the program’s pros and cons.

Butch Luedtke, owner of the Morrison Inn that is one of the town’s largest employers, told the Town Board on July 6 that he had two issues with the trial program that started July 1. He is concerned his regular customers — not tourists — are becoming frustrated with paying for parking and will not frequent his and other businesses, especially during non-peak months. He also is concerned about his employees’ safety as they walk long distances to their cars on dark roads where parking is free.

“I would greatly appreciate it if you would reconsider (the paid parking program),” Luedtke told the board. “My employees would appreciate it, and my regulars

would appreciate it.”

The town’s parking committee hopes to meet with business owners soon to get their feedback to make adjustments as the summer progresses. The trial period ends Sept. 30.

Mayor Sean Forey told Luedtke that the parking program was new to everyone, and town officials were just beginning to get feedback. He noted that the parking system was begun in response to businesses’ concerns about the lack of parking in downtown Morrison.

Board member Katie Gill, who serves on the parking committee, said one of the intents of paid parking was to stop people from parking in prime spaces while they were on bike rides.

Interstate Parking of Colorado has created a trial parking management system for downtown parking spots. The first 30 minutes are free, with the next 30 minutes $1. The second hour costs $1.50, third hour $2, fourth hour $3 and subsequent hours $5. A violation is $30 and doubles in 10 days for nonpayment.

Interstate, which also operates similar systems in Idaho Springs, Breckenridge, Keystone and more, uses kiosks placed throughout the downtown area and a smartphone

app.

“I come tonight I believe speaking for hundreds of customers that I’ve heard from in the last couple of weeks,” Luedtke told the board. “Some are in favor, and some are against (paid parking).

I’ve got customers telling me they are not coming back, and most are regular customers. These are people who are so important to us because they help us survive through the winter. To miss 50, or 60 or 100 of those people two to three times a week … it will take a lot of parking spots to make up what we’re losing.”

Regarding employee parking, Luedtke said parents have called, upset about the distance their children are walking to get to their cars after a work shift.

Someone has suggested that employees leave the restaurant at 7:45 p.m. nightly to move their cars closer to the restaurant after the town stops charging for parking, an unworkable scenario in a busy restaurant, he said. In addition, it will soon be darker earlier, exacerbating the problem.

Town officials said they were trying hard to meet businesses’ needs.

“Let’s work really hard,” Forey told the board, “to talk with all the businesses in town.”

response was overwhelming.

“Thank you for letting us be a part of this,” he told the Booth family.

“We’re here for you ... and let us know if you want to volunteer.”

Joel, who was a Navy hospital corpsman, requested that his soonto-be hometown fire department be part of the groundbreaking ceremony.

In 2011, Booth was on a morning patrol with the 1st Battalion, 5th Marines, when he stepped on an improvised explosive device in Helmand Province, Afghanistan.

The blast destroyed multiple bones in his right foot, and after months of pain with little progress, doctors amputated his leg.

The 2,800-square-foot home, which is expected to be completed in January, will have four bedrooms and two bathrooms. It will be equipped with 40 adaptations such as widened doorways for wheelchair access, a roll-in shower, and kitchen amenities that include pull-down shelving and lowered countertops, allowing Joel to perform tasks at home that most take for granted.

Homes for Our Troops has built 319 homes across the country since 2004, including a home in Pine for another veteran two years ago.

Wife Tasha said the new home will be a game-changer for the family because Joel can’t get around the family’s current home down the hill in his wheelchair, which means he needs to wear his prosthetic or hop to get around.

“The prosthetic takes its toll,” she said.

Joel is the logistics manager for IDS GeoRadar and is studying to be a physician’s assistant, hoping to be involved in prosthetic and medical care.

Kickoff celebration Not to be outdone, Evergreen Fire/ Rescue brought some of its first responders and fire trucks to the opening parade and ceremony on July 10 at Ascent Church in Evergreen. Fire Chief Mike Weege said his department was always willing to honor a veteran.

Maves Construction based in Grand Junction is building the home, and for owner Michael Maves, building homes for disabled veterans is a labor of love. Nearly four years ago, Maves built his first home for a Homes for Our Troops recipient as his son left for Air Force basic training, and now Maves’ company is working on its third home.

“It’s super cool to meet the veterans,” he said. “It’s a privilege to give back for all of their sacrifice. They don’t complain. They’re just good people.”

Homes for Our Troops President Tom Landwermeyer said the nonprofit doesn’t look at what it does as charity.

“The moral obligation for our country is to begin to repay a debt for (veterans’) sacrifice,” he said.

“We will stay in contact because we want to celebrate the successes that our veterans and their families have. They will be rehabbing and recovering the rest of their lives because of the hand they’ve been dealt. We want to be there to help

them through the challenges.”

The goal of Homes for Our Troops, he said, revolves around freedom and independence because those who have been permanently injured rely on spouses, friends and family members to help with mundane activities most take for granted.

“These guys went down range voluntarily,” Landwermeyer said.

“They shouldn’t have to fight through struggles around their

home. It takes the handcuffs off the family and gives them the opportunity to lead more normal lives.”

Joel said he was glad the family would be moving into The Homestead because of the area’s community mindset.

“It’s such an honor to be here,” he told those who attended the kickoff celebration. “I just want to say thank you. I’m very appreciative and very thankful.”
