Chamber President Nancy Judge said response to last year’s sculptures was so positive, the chamber decided to do it again. Ice sculptor Jess Parrish from Cool Hand Ice Carving returned to create the Grinch, the Abominable Snowman, a bear, a house, an elf and more. The largest ice sculpture weights 3,600 pounds and is outside Bryan Caldwell’s American Family Insurance Agency. The other sculptures weigh 1,200 pounds each.

Super-food trucks King-Murphy’s first graders learn about entrepreneurship, helping others BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

King-Murphy’s first graders have proved they are chefs, entrepreneurs and philanthropists as part of a fun unit on, of all things, economics. They created food trucks of sorts, sold goods to students and staff, then used the proceeds from sales to purchase Christmas gifts for children on the school’s giving tree. In a very hands-on way, the students learned about buying and selling, counting money and understanding owning a business. Students kept some of the profits to defray the cost of making the goods, and they took the net proceeds — about $500 — to the Evergreen Walmart to buy gifts for infants, children and teenagers. The entire project was a win for the first graders, a win for students and staff who bought items at the food trucks and a win for the families whose children will receive gifts for Christmas. Teacher Kristen Betts decided to try something different to get the youngsters to understand economics concepts, and the food-truck project was born. The students decorated the food trucks made out of boxes, decided what they wanted C

to sell, and then sold cookies, soups, candies and more to everyone in the school. Everything cost $1, and students do the math to provide change. First grader Lydia Didier with the help of her dad, Chris, sold a chicken soup that Lydia called really yummy. Chris said he liked the hands-on way the first graders were learning about money, and buying and selling items. He also hoped there was some soup left after the food-truck sales were over. First grader Victoria Van Volkinburg made “The Best Sugar Cookies” with her mom, and she was thrilled with the number of customers who came to her food truck. Beck’s Best Bakery, operated by first grader Beck Dunbar, sold a sweet treat made of Rollo candy, pretzels and M&Ms. Beck said he made them to sell because they’re one of his favorites. He explained that the $1 price was good because you wouldn’t want to charge $93 since no one would buy the items the food trucks were selling. Jordan Dunbar, Beck’s mom, said Beck talked about the project for weeks, so excited about what he was learning and doing. She was amazed that students as young as first graders understood the concepts of buying and selling, profit and loss. Nora Brough said she sold out of her mini pies really fast, while Cam Marinas said his soup, which was something most students had not tried before, was a bit more difficult to sell. Lily Bourassa said she got a lot of practice counting money, and Corwin Lauritsen said the dollar bills filled up his entire basket.

Englewood man coping after losing his wife, granddaughter in August crash on U.S. 285 BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Imagine waking up from your worst nightmare, and it’s all true. Frank Snell of Englewood lost his wife Diana and 2-year-old granddaughter Jordan in a tragic traffic accident on U.S. 285 at Kings Valley on Aug. 26. He feels lucky that his son Adam and daughter Amber survived the crash, though Amber has a severe traumatic brain injury. It is uncertain what her care will look like when she is able to come home from the hospital. Adam also has a traumatic brain injury, though less severe, and he is out of the hospital but still going through therapy to overcome the impairments. Frank, son Andrew and granddaughter Aliyah were not in the truck Diana, who was known as Dee, was driving. Frank’s days now are spent caring for 5-year-old Aliyah, wading through medical bills, insurance claims and more, visiting daily with Amber who is still at Craig Hospital, working at his job and trying to finish home remodeling projects he started before the crash. There are many sleepless nights as he worries about how to keep everything together especially with Dee gone. Dee was the backbone for her husband, three grown children and two granddaughters, always there, always taking care of things for the family, Frank said. Frank marvels at everything Dee could get done while also working for an auto parts company. Dee left that job in July 2020 when Frank had a stroke and had just gone back to work when Frank had a heart attack two months before the crash. “Things don’t get done right without her,” Frank explained. Frank thanks the people who jumped out of their vehicles to help his family immediately after the crash, sure that because of their aid before first responders arrived, his son and daughter are still alive. He also thanks those who sat in traffic

Finding a way for up to five hours on U.S. 285 while first responders did their jobs. Frank listens to a song called “Jealous of the Angels” every day because the lyrics are comforting, so much so that Aliyah has learned the words. The first stanza says: “I didn’t know today would be our last, Or that I’d have to say goodbye to you so fast, I’m so numb I can’t feel anymore, Prayin’ you’d just walk back through that door.” A few seconds changed Frank’s family forever. On the way home from the family’s annual camping trip to Twin Lakes, Dee’s truck, which was pulling a camper heading northbound on U.S. 285, was hit by a truck, whose driver had passed vehicles on the shoulder at a high speed, crossed a double yellow line and hit her truck head-on. “In a period of less than 10 seconds, one person’s choice has dramatically changed my entire family’s lives,” Frank said. A strong family Frank knew Dee Davis was The One before their first date. They met while cruising Colfax Avenue in December 1984 when he was 19 and she was 18, and he said the conversation between them was easy and natural. They married in May 1985, and Amber was born in May 1986, followed by Adam in 1990 and Andrew in 1991. The family lived in Wheat

Ridge for eight years before moving to Englewood, where Dee had grown up and graduated from Englewood High School in 1984. They have always been a tight-knit family with Amber and her daughters, Aliyah and Jordan, called JoJo by her family, living with Frank and Dee. Every year, the entire family went camping at Twin Lakes to fish, enjoy being outdoors and unwind. “That was her place,” he said of Dee. Dee also loved wolves and gardening, and Frank plans to have a bench made to be placed near the garden at their home as a tribute to her. Frank tries to keep Aliyah on a schedule as she attends kindergarten and after-school care, but she won’t sleep in the bedroom she shared with little sister JoJo. Aliyah believes a star in the western night sky is her grandma and JoJo watching over them. JoJo, being the younger sister, learned quickly that she could get what she wanted, though she was fiercely protective of Aliyah. “She was an amazing little girl,” SEE SNELL, P4

Frank said of JoJo. “She had the biggest heart. … I will never see her grow up.” Amber had a diffuse axonal injury, which means the two sides of her brain don’t communicate with each other. She still can’t walk, though she is slowly gaining back movement. Her short-term memory is impaired, and at this point, she doesn’t know she lost her youngest daughter and her mother. “Why add to her pain now?” Frank asked. “I’ll tell her when she can process what has happened. Amber will never be the same. She will always have limitations. As bad as

offending drivers on the roadways like the man who caused the crash that killed Dee and JoJo, a system he calls screwed up. That man had alcohol/drug arrests and DUI convictions, and he was arrested three weeks prior to the crash for vehicular eluding, reckless driving and more. So far, Frank has not gotten a response from Polis’ office. Each day is filled with going through the motions because there’s so much to do, and he works hard

Moving forward Frank spends his days trying to move forward but said it’s like one step forward and two steps back. He says he’s worried he will lose the house now that his household is down to one income. He is doing his best with Aliyah, though he adds, “As things go along, I know I’m screwing up. I keep waiting for Dee to come through the door to fix it.” He takes comfort in the emotional support from friends, extended family and the community. Frank says two months ago he sent an email to Gov. Jared Polis, wanting to discuss the criminal justice system as it pertains to repeat-

not to think about the “what ifs:” What if he had been driving immediately in front of Dee rather than heading home first? What if they hadn’t stopped for lunch or if they had stayed longer? That list is long, but that kind of thinking doesn’t help the here and now, he explained. “I know what happened,” he said, “but I don’t think it’s sunk in yet. This is going to be hard. I know that. It’s so much harder without Dee.”

How the Grinch posed with pets Evergreen Animal Hospital hosts photo session with iconic Christmas character BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Naughty or nice, all pets were welcome to get their picture taken with the Grinch at Evergreen Animal Hospital on Dec. 12. Mark and Robin Seguin from Evergreen brought their Cavalier King Charles spaniel puppy, Abby, to get her picture with the Grinch. “This is our vet, and we love how they’re so outgoing,” they said. Abby the puppy was especially happy to see the Grinch, greeting him with kisses and tail wags. The Seguins said they can’t wait to share the photo with family. “The Grinch is special compared to Santa,” Robin said. Veterinarian Austin Teel said the hospital in Bergen Park wanted to

open its doors to the community to see the facility, meet the team and get some great photos. The hospital, which has been part of Evergreen for nearly 40 years, changed ownership in 2019. The staff laughed as photographer Alan Westman clicked away, capturing the happiness, surprise and sometimes distaste the pets had for their Grinch encounters. Each pet left with a holiday themed cookie, and there were plenty of human treats for their people to enjoy as well. The sound of jingle bells and holiday cheer filled the lobby as Burns, Sookie Jean and Angus bounded in, decked out in full holiday attire. Not far behind was mom, Jeri Berg, also clad in seasonal threads. The rat terrier trio was ready for their close-ups, almost as ready as they were for the holiday treats the hospital provided. When getting the gang dressed up, Berg said she had mixed reactions from the pups.

“When I pulled the stuff out, (Burns) started bouncing around,” she said. Sookie Jean was not feeling the holiday spirit despite her festive dress. “Two of them like it — she isn’t

too thrilled …” Berg said. The visit was a treat for Berg as well, as she enjoyed seeing the special guest who was posing with the pets. “`Tis the season,” she said. “The Grinch is my all-time favorite.”

Holiday Season in Conifer! The holiday season always seems to come and go so quickly; it would be nice to be able to slow down time a little and let the good times linger just a bit… Just long enough to breath in the smells of fresh evergreens, fresh baked cookies, and my personal favorite, a cozy fire crackling in the fireplace. Or maybe just long enough to soak up the twinkling lights and the sounds of the holidays. And long enough to let the sight of all the sparkling eyes and happy faces soaking in the magic of the season. We have had a busy season here at the Chamber, and we are extra thankful for the community of Conifer this time of year, especially this year. Our businesses help to make the season cheery by stocking their shelves so you can shop local. By stocking the food pantry shelves, donating toys and gifts to those less fortunate. In November, we had Small Business Saturday, even though this year we are campaigning for the Small Business Season, instead of just one day! We spent the day shopping locally and stopping by several businesses in the area. Hundreds lined the parade route to kick-off the 38th Annual Christmas Parade presented by RE/MAX Alliance and the start of the season.

Snowplowing season BY DEB BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Jefferson County and CDOT officials say snowplowing went well for the first snowfall of the year on Dec. 10, even though the departments are not fully staffed. Some residents on social media were less positive about their experience, concerned about icy roads that didn’t appear to have been sanded or plowed. Others who live in more remote areas of the foothills are upset they may no longer see plows when winter weather gets nasty. While CDOT says it can move its fleet of snowplows as needed in Colorado depending on where the storm will hit to cover Interstate 70, U.S. 285 and Highway 74, Jeffco doesn’t have as much flexibility. Because of a snowplow driving shortage, Jeffco has created a series of priorities on where drivers will plow first. For example, plows will not be on roads Jeffco-wide between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m. Mike Secary, director of Jeffco road & bridge, said the problem with the first storm wasn’t the plows but the warm temperatures that allowed the snow to melt and subsequently freeze. He explained that the county doesn’t lay down sand or other materials to combat ice because it’s expensive, and it doesn’t want to waste it if the storm doesn’t actually appear. He noted that Jeffco plow drivers cover 3,600 miles of roads, and

JEFFCO’S PRIORITIES FOR SNOWPLOWING Priority 1: Main arterial streets that provide for high traffic volumes such as Highway 73. Priority 2: Major subdivision collectors, school zones and school bus routes. Priority 3: Residential or other local roads that carry moderate to low traffic volumes. Priority 4: Cul-de-sacs or other dead-end roads carrying very low traffic volumes. it takes time to get through entire routes. “I wish I had a magic button, and all of the routes would be done (at one time),” he said. Jeffco is short 34 drivers, and with 84 routes, it’s difficult to juggle, he said. “It’s not my choice,” he said. “We don’t have enough people to keep a full deployment of trucks and graders working around the clock.” For Jeffco, Highway 73 and school bus routes are the highest priority. “I know folks aren’t going to be happy,” Secary said. “They have to be patient, and I’m sure we will get a lot of calls. We really are doing what we can.” Both CDOT and Jeffco want to hire plow drivers. To apply to CDOT, visit codot.gov/projects/co74-rockmitigation-jeffco. To apply to Jeffco, visit jeffco.us/jobs.

Isolation and loneliness carry health risks for older Americans

e’re heading into the holiday season, which is often embraced as a time to get together with friends and family to celebrate traditional holidays. However, what can be a joyous time for some, may be difficult for older adults who are more vulnerable to social isolation and loneliness. Particularly during the holiday season. In fact, a recent report showed that nearly onefourth of adults aged 65 and older are socially isolated. Loneliness and social isolation are serious health risks, particularly to at-risk individuals, such as older adults. A substantial body of evidence demonstrates that social isolation presents a major risk for premature mortality, comparable to other risk factors such as high blood pressure, smoking or obesity. In addition, poor social relationships (characterized by social isolation or loneliness) were associated with a

29 percent increased risk of heart disease and a 32 percent increased risk of stroke. Perhaps most concerning is the fact that a person’s risk of premature death from all causes is significantly increased by social isolation, a Todd Wisser risk that may rival those of smoking, obesity and physical inactivity. As a general demographic, seniors can be more at risk for social isolation and loneliness. There are many tell-tale signs that you or someone you know is at risk for experiencing loneliness or social isolation. Risk factors can include but are not limited to disability or lack of mobility, worsening vision or hearing problems, separation from friends or family, illness or death of a loved

YOUR HEALTH

one and lack of access to transportation. Luckily, there are steps we can take to help combat the loneliness epidemic. All humans need social connection and interaction as part of their survival. But often as adults age, they begin to spend more time alone making them more vulnerable to social isolation and loneliness. Engaging in activities that are meaningful can boost mood and give people a sense of purpose. In addition to living longer, research demonstrates that productive people seem to improve cognitive function and are better able to maintain their well-being. Some tips for staying connected include: • Learn something new – sign up for a class in your community •Reignite your passions with something you love — begin an old hobby • Explore volunteer opportunities

with your local community that allow you to help others • Make sure you stay connected with your friends and family in-person or through phone calls, email, video chats or social media • Stay physically active and consider group exercise, such a walking club or working out with a friend • Find a faith-based or spiritual organization where you can engage with others in a meaningful way • If you are able, adopt a pet. Animals can be a source of comfort and may also lower blood pressure and reduce stress. By employing some of these tips, we can do our part to help combat loneliness and support the social and emotional needs of the older adults we care about this holiday season.

Peace on earth and good will toward all

hile enjoying one of the concerts at the lake, I ran into an old friend who I had not seen for several years. This person made a point of telling me that I have become a traitor. The reference is to my articles and to the fact that I criticize both parties and don’t support one party on every issue right or wrong. It was a quick engagement, but I have not been able to forget it. Since the concert, I have thought about several clever responses I could have made. I could have recited the pledge of allegiance to the country, not a party. Of course, I didn’t think that fast at the time. This perspective that we must take a side and focus on it on every issue is prevalent in our country. We have divided ourselves into good guys and bad guys. Whether we are talking about political issues, covid vaccinations, the use of masks, the trials in Kenosha and

southern Georgia or even high gas prices, Americans line up sporting their red or blue uniforms. Those who support former president Trump support everything he does or says, and those who support President Biden Columnist also support all he does or says. That just can’t be right. Neither man nor neither party can be right on every issue. What is even more troubling is the block voting in Congress. The Democrats all vote one way, and all the Republicans vote the other way. Since our Congressional members are there to represent their state or congressional district, it seems reasonable that Congress members would sometimes see their con-

JIM ROHRER

stituent’s interest the same way as someone from the other party. Well, we now know why this block voting exists as those who crossed party lines on the infrastructure bill are being threatened with the loss of committee assignments because they crossed party lines voting for the popular bill. Wow… how have we gotten to such a place? I have a better question. How can we get back to a place where we all see ourselves as Americans, not members of the blue team or the red team? How can we lessen the divide? I understand that I am just one person who writes to a small audience, but nevertheless I believe that most Americans hate the divided nature of our country. The sausage making process by which Congress passed the popular infrastructure bill might be a model. Senators Manchin and Sinema refused to cast their necessary votes until both sides listened to each other, showed some

respect, and finally brought about an agreement. So, here’s my suggestion. Let’s listen respectfully to opinions different than our own. Let’s focus on areas where we agree. And let’s put friendship in front of political beliefs. I write this now as we contemplate the time of year during which our greeting cards promote peace on earth and goodwill to all men.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Squirrely details Only extreme ignorance can defend Full Send Bike Ranch against charges of dishonesty and one is dubious of possible claims to ignorance since FSBR has been spouting the same nonsense since late 2020. Numerous fallacies of logic and presumption have been refuted to county and state officials, in the Canyon Courier and the Denver Post. A quote from Mr. Phil Bouchard, in the Courier’s article of Oct. 20, 2021 exemplifies: “Most of our infrastructure is being proposed on a portion of the property that is already fenced off to large game.” Presumably, small game — and other animals who live on that mountainside — will know to stay away, as well? Simply through observing the

fence? And what does Mr. Bouchard imagine small game to be? The very term game applies specifically to hunted animals and hunting is not permitted on the 250 acres FSBR proposes to destroy. The fencing, of course, is specifically designed to restrain livestock, but to allow wildlife —large and small — to hunt, forage and migrate nearly unimpeded. Over the last year, FSBR has published at least a score of such foolish statements: on their website, and in the Courier and Denver Post. If FSBR is so ignorant of the meaning of the terms they bandy about, how can they possibly maintain a viable business? Conifer will bear the scars. G. Scott O’Connell, Conifer

SHERIFF’S CALLS Down and out CONIFER – ‘Twas a sunny afternoon in November, and the blithe motorist was returning home from the grocery store with a tasty cargo of “marble rye, lettuce and tomatoes.” Somewhere between bakery and BLT, a belligerent tailgater picked up his scent and began badgering him from abaft. When Blithe finally pulled into his driveway, Belligerent pulled up right behind him, and when Blithe chose to approach his pursuer’s vehicle at that moment on his way “to get the mail,” Belligerent allegedly heaved open his door, knocking Blithe to the ground. “You want a piece of this?” Belligerent barked at his recumbent foe. “Bring it, (Aspergillus)!” bade Blithe. Near as Blithe could tell, Belligerent “punched me in the nose” and “sat on my chest” while Belligerent’s girlfriend, Betty Battery, “kicked me in the head,” at which point Blithe believes he lost consciousness. When he came to a while later, Belligerent and Violet were calmly chatting with his neighbor, Wally Witness, directly across the street. On Nov. 12 – three days after the affray – it occurred to Blithe that the blackguardly beating might be of interest to the county constabu-

lary, and described the dirty deed to deputies. Blithe insisted that no charges be brought against Belligerent, which is just as well, since a few words with Wally Witness were enough to convince the cops that the melee was more or less mutual. Love you more PINE JUNCTION – On the night of Nov. 23, alert restaurant employees became aware of a pummeling underway in the parking lot. According to their official statement, Huey had been busily bashing Louie’s beak while Dewey tried unsuccessfully to separate them. When the employees told them to scram, they obediently bolted, Huey and Dewey driving away in a pickup truck and Louie fleeing the scene on webbed foot. Just to be sure everybody was safe and sound, deputies called Louie’s house and learned that he was home and healthy, and hunted up Huey and Dewey hanging out in the RTD lot in no obvious distress. Queried for comment, Huey assured the officers that all was right between Louie and himself, as he’d already phoned to mend fences with his feathered friend, and they’d tenderly concluded their tele-truce by exchanging “love you”s.

Case closed INDIAN HILLS – The devil is in the details. The anxious house sitter told deputies he’d been awakened from sound sleep in the wee hours of Nov. 23 by “a rush of cold air” and the stealthy sound of someone climbing in through his bedroom window. “Is someone opening my window?” the house sitter cried out in challenge. Uttering the single word “punk,” the intruder fled back into the chill night and the house sitter rushed to slam shut and securely lock the open window. It was all perfectly plausible, except that the window at the heart of the case was protected by a firmly attached screen, was well shrouded in undisturbed “cobwebs and dust,” and was in fact a static fixture that could in no way be opened without a baseball bat. The house sitter “could not explain the discrepancy,” and the deputies didn’t bother to try.

returned to the lodge a short time after leaving, saying he needed to retrieve his identification from his just-quitted quarters. It wasn’t until housekeeping got involved that JCSO did, too. Informed by a maid that the room was “destroyed,” the manager had conducted a hasty examination revealing that “several pieces of furniture” had been moved, a “strong smell of bleach” permeated the room, and a mysterious “dried white liquid” was splashed liberally about the place. Responding deputies quickly ascertained that the only permanent damage done was a tear in the wallpaper, and that the presumed perpetrator was listed in the county database as homeless. Given that the room was somewhat less destroyed than originally advertised, the manager didn’t press criminal charges, but did permanently banish the guest from the gasthaus.

Room disservice EVERGREEN – Friendly and polite at check in, the hotel guest rang the front desk on the morning of Nov. 11 asking for an hour’s grace in checking out. Hotel staff was happy to grant that simple request, and was equally amenable when he

ECDS opens new addition Gym/performing arts center is a hit with students, staff, parents BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Hicks Family Athletic and Performing Arts Center is host to many new activities, PHOTO PROVIDED BY EVERGREEN COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL including volleyball games.

stuff,” she said. Riggs recalls the early days of the center’s construction. “I remember when it looked like an airplane hangar,” he said. Before the gym space, on days where it was too cold to play outside, the students had recess and physical education classes in the cafeteria and the hallways. Donor Megan Hicks recounts tales about winter recesses from her daughter, Emma, a student at the school. “In the winter in the past, the kids would be doing cartwheels down the

hall,” Megan said. Megan and Kerry Hicks were excited to find an opportunity to collaborate with other families in the school and make a difference for the arts programs. “What’s near and dear to us is the performance arts,” Kerry said. Megan went on to explain the opportunities the new space has opened for sports in the school. “Our school has never been able to have team sports, (so) it’s created these opportunities,” she said.

Students and school staff alike are excited to be using the new gym/ performing arts center Evergreen Country Day School opened this year. Breaking ground in spring 2020, the Hicks Family Athletic and Performing Arts Center was underway after donations from families at the school. The 10,000-square-foot addition has a full-size gymnasium, bleachers, a lobby for concessions, locker rooms, a stage and a retractable door behind the stage that leads onto a deck. When used as an auditorium, the center will accommodate an audience of 300. The private school for students in kindergarten through eighth grade in El Rancho put the finishing touches on the gym in October and has been enjoying the space ever since. Middle schoolers Riggs Gallaher, Max Hunter, Ethan Ramirez, Cohen Musser and Gabby Peonio had great things to say about the new space. Gabby, a volleyball team member, enjoyed the opportunity to crank up the volume during practice. “Especially for volleyball, it’s nice because we can play loud music and

been waiting for a space like this in the 15 years he’s been at the school. “It’s really been job changing for me,” he said. Betts noted how much he and the students enjoy being able to host sports games in their own gym. “My favorite thing is we’ve never had a home game before — the excitement of having a home crowd,” Betts said. Betts lit up when talking about the new space with the students. “They’re almost as excited as I am,” he said, laughing. Head of School Kabe ErkenBrack sees the impact the space has had on students in such a short time and thanks the families for their support of the project. “Execution had to do with the amazing families that stepped forward,” he said. The new space is able to offer volleyball, basketball, physical education, hip hop and theater classes, choir and band performances, the weekly all-school town meeting and many more activities. Erkenbrack says that since the center was built, about 60% of the boys in the school joined the basketball team. When talking about the Hicks Family Athletic and Performing Arts Center, it seemed everyone at the school had been affected by the new space. Max put it plainly: “I think everyone in the school has been involved in the gym.”
