Controlled, fun chaos best describes the annual field day for King-Murphy and Carlson elementary school students.

SEE FIELD DAY, P3

Field day participants play with colorful parachutes at Field Day on the athletic field at Clear Creek Middle/High School.

The three new members of the Evergreen Fire/Rescue board of directors plus the new board president vow to bring more transparency to the board and the department, provide more avenues of communication with constituents and firefighters, and improve the department’s culture.

Julie Ann Courim, Stacey Ballinger and John Putt were elected to the board by a large margin earlier this month. On May 10, they joined Chuck Ridings and John Porter, who are in the middle of their first terms on the board, at a board meeting.

Ridings was elected board president by a 4-1 vote with Porter dissenting.

“I for the last two years have been … trying to understand the lack of transparency that has been shown by the board,” Ridings said. “I’m going to open up that transparency a great deal. … There will be transparency 100% of the time. I truly want people to come forward and not lurk in the background.”

OBITUARIES BARKSDALE

John Griffith Barksdale

MAHONEY

S e pt e m b e r 18 , 194 6 - May 5 , 2022

John Griffith Barksdale was born September 18, 1946, in Youngstown, Ohio. His family moved to Colorado when he was 3 months old, making him almost a native. He was released from his earthly tent that was rocked by cancer on May 5, 2022. Cinco de Mayo!

He would have liked that he died on a day celebrating liberation! And the National Day of Prayer, where people were before the Lord on behalf of our country. John knew he had the promise of an eternal building with his Father God in the heavens and on the coming new earth. 2Corinthians 5:1 This past April, John and his wife Kathy celebrated 47-years marriage. John worked in the flooring industry for many years, then he and Kathy traveled the world after he retired. He was proceeded in death by his children, Jesse and

Micah.

John was known for his passion and zeal for his heavenly Father and the Word of God, life, his family, and his friends. He always had a ready joke, whether it was funny or not. When he was starting to get sick, he got a lot of pleasure getting his nature pictures published in the Denver Gazette. He has left a positive imprint on many. Profound thanks to his doctors, Mt. Evans Hospice, and the countless family and friends who rallied to his support. A celebration of life will be held on Thursday, May 19 11:30-2:30 at the Evergreen Memorial Park barn. Please wear a Hawaiian shirt if you have one. Memorial contributions in his name can be made to Community Bible Study or Mt. Evans Hospice.

Former, longtime Evergreen resident John Mahoney passed away peacefully May 12, 2022 at Beaufort Memorial Hospital at the age of 86, surrounded by his loving family. John is survived by his wife Anita after 61 years of marriage.

John was born and raised in Philadelphia, PA and spent his summers in the seaside community of Wildwood, NJ, where he developed a lifelong love of sailing and all things maritime. Following a stint in the U.S. Army, John graduated from Drexel Institute of Technology in 1962 with a degree in mechanical engineering. In 1974, John earned an MBA degree from Indiana Northern University. John’s early career in technical sales took him and his family to Buffalo,

NY; Syracuse, NY; Michigan City, IN; Chicago, IL; and finally Denver, CO, where he served for twenty-six years as chairman, president, and CEO of Translogic Corporation. After retiring in 1996, John and Anita relocated to Beaufort, SC, where they enjoyed a fulfilling life in the low country and continued to be active in local civic and charitable activities.

John will be missed by his family and the many, many friends he has known over the years. John’s family also includes his son Sean (Mindy); son Mike (Toni); and daughter Meghan; and numerous grandchildren and great grandchildren. In lieu of flowers, wellwishers are encouraged to support their own chosen charitable causes.

FIELD DAY FROM PAGE 1

The event, organized by physical education teacher Mike Patrizi, had something for everyone from jump rope and hula hoops to kickball and soccer to a game called drip-dripdrench, a wet take on duck-duckgoose that Patrizi called “super goofy.”

On the afternoon of May 13, the third through sixth graders at the two elementary schools played together, getting to know each other as they got some exercise and enjoyed the sunny, windy day.

The fifth and sixth graders helped lead games for the younger children in the morning before having the afternoon to partake in the games themselves. Patrizi said the wind made some of the games more daunting, so changes were made as

the day progressed.

The students said they had fun, though those who were wet from drip-drip-drench were a bit chilly thanks to the wind. They agreed they liked to be able to move among the different games.

“Field Day mixes the two schools, and that’s the goal of the whole event,” Patrizi said. “They get to play games with their friends. It’s a nice celebration before summer.”

EFR BOARD FROM PAGE 1

The transparency showed as he allowed members of the public who attended the meeting to address the board and ask questions as topics were brought up in addition to during official public comment.

“My main concern is to get our volunteers back to where they were with the power and control they had in the past and with the training they wish to have,” Ridings said.

“Volunteers are the core and heart of the department and not going to be taken for granted. They should be given No. 1 priority.”

Ridings said he was looking at the next year as a clean slate, saying he would work hard on trusting the EFR administration more after spending his first two years on the board not trusting the current administration.

Porter proposed adding three committees that would be overseen by

May 19, 2022 the board: • The Evergreen Volunteer Fire Department Committee that would address volunteer concerns and needs, strengthen community, and address rumors and support recruitment and retention; • The Grant Committee that would search for and prioritize grant opportunities, be responsible for grant management and writing, and make recommendations to the Evergreen Fire/Rescue board on priority grants and updates; • And the Wildland Planning Committee that would address volunteer concerns and needs, and support recruitment and retention.

Board members said they liked the three ideas but wanted to discuss them further before creating the committees. In response to a question from the audience, they agreed that community members might get involved.

Courim, who in the past served on the Foothills Fire Department board of directors and whose husband was a firefighter, told the board and the

INTER-CANYON TO REBUILD STATION 3 Inter-Canyon Fire Protection District just may get a new Station 3.

District officials asked architects to downsize the structure they planned to build on U.S. 285 so it would stay within the district’s $5 million budget. The new building, which officials hope to have completed by February 2024, will be closer to 6,000 square feet rather than the 9,000 originally planned.

In 2019, the fire district expected to use the $5 million to replace two fire stations, but bids came in at more than twice what officials expected thanks to increasing construction and materials costs. Fire Chief Skip Shirlaw had said the district would put fire station construction on the back burner, but he says the redesigned Station 3 is workable.

The new building will have four truck bays rather than six, plus offices will be smaller.

Plans call for four crew quarters, training rooms and more.

Shirlaw said Inter-Canyon would apply for a grant from the Department of Local Affairs, and that grant was anticipated to be $1 million and now is closer to $600,000.

audience that she respected differing opinions and will listen with an open and interested mind. She hoped those who come to the board with concerns also will propose solutions.

Putt said the district was responsible for both top-notch fire response but also preparedness and prevention. He noted that Evergreen has the best firefighting force, and he

was looking forward to working with the administration and firefighters.

Ballinger, who was a dispatcher for Evergreen Fire/Rescue before the department joined Jeffcom for dispatch services, said her plan was to learn and listen as much as she could.

Small makers gather for market in downtown Evergreen Sweet Hayden invited small businesses to sell their items at a monthly pop up shop in its store

BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Multiple areas of the foothills communities were represented at Sweet Hayden’s small makers market on May 12.

Sweet Hayden boutique in downtown Evergreen hosted its monthly pop up shop for local vendors and makers where they hosted local businesses and their wares.

The pop up featured multiple lo-

cal vendors, including those with skincare products, clothing, baked goods and syrup. Laura Vorster with Pezzo Apparel has been in business for 7 years.

“This is my first pop up in Ever-

green,” Vorster said.

At Pezzo Apparel, Vorster strives to be zero waste. She designs, sews and sells the products she makes, and uses her scraps to create jewelry and other accessories.

Amber Burr, owner of Daddy’s Homemade Syrup, also was at the event. She tries to be active in the local community.

“This is my third one here,” she said of the pop up at Sweet Hayden.

Daddy’s Homemade has some new fun flavors, like maple bourbon, chai, butterscotch and ginger. It also recently won “Home-based Business of the Year” with the Conifer Chamber of Commerce.

Sunshine Moonbeam Baking Co. is based out of Kristin Smith’s home in Bailey. She has been in the business for over a year, and does small

batch, custom order baked goods like cookies, cupcakes, cinnamon rolls and more. Her favorite thing to make is something that would make anyone smile.

“I love spinning the cotton candy,” she said.

Smith does most of her sales through social media and her website, but enjoys getting out into the community at vendor events.

Nicci Jay, who works at Sweet Hayden, said the shop has been doing these pop up events since December.

“We just want to introduce the community to these small makers,” she said.

Jay said she enjoys these nights where the shop stays open late, and loves to get to know business owners and makers in the area.

Witwer receives DAR’s Medal of Honor

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Dr. John Price Witwer is everything the recipient of the Daughters of the American Revolution Medal of Honor should be.

Friends and colleagues called him a phenomenal leader, an extraordinary servant to the community and the country, an undying patriot and an exceptional human being.

Witwer accepted the award at the May 9 meeting of the Mountain Rendezvous Chapter, flanked by family and friends. The award is given to someone who has made unusual and lasting contributions to American heritage by giving to the community, state and country.

Witwer attended Cornell University Medical School, was an Army flight surgeon during the Vietnam War and was a radiologist at Lutheran Medical Center. When he retired in 1997, he represented District 25 in the Colorado House of Representatives from 1999-2005. He also founded the Red Rocks Community College physicians assistant program, and he continues to teach classes there.

In thanking the Daughters of the Revolution for the award, Witwer thanked their ancestors for creating the United States of America.

“Your ancestors did the right thing at the right time, and we are grateful

to them,” he said. “The American Revolution is an experiment that continues to this day.”

Letters in support of the award called Witwer a role model and mentor in medicine, in the military and in the legislature.

“He calmly listened to everyone, even those who disagreed with him,” said Steven Brown, chief medical officer at Lutheran Medical Center, in a recommendation letter. “John demonstrated the finest traditions of citizen legislator as described by our nation’s Founders.

He was honest, ethical, smart and had no desire to make politics his life-long career. … He is a principled man – a wonderful role model for how to be a good husband, father, physician, citizen and patriot.”

Former Colorado Sen. Cheri Jahn called Witwer a true statesman.

“He always worked hard and stressed the importance of good sound policy, not partaking in party politics,” Jahn said in a letter of recommendation. “He was highly respected because of his strong ability to work with his colleagues and to reach across the aisle to be sure the best policies were put forth. He was always anxious to hear all sides of an issue, and he was a true leader in his ability to bring all stakeholders to the table for honest and robust discussions.”

Sherry Predaina, regent of the Mountain Rendezvous chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, listens as Dr. John Witwer thanks the organization for presentPHOTO BY DEB HURLEY BROBST ing him with the Medal of Honor.

3 inducted into Women in Business Hall of Fame

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It takes more than business acumen to be inducted into the Mountain Area Women in Business Hall of Fame.

It takes community involvement, commitment to others and an unceasing love for Evergreen.

This year’s three new inductees are Alexa Cowley, Pandora Erlandson and Beth Riser, who were honored on May 12 at the annual Women in Business Luncheon sponsored by the Evergreen Area Chamber of Commerce. Their biographies provide a laundry list of causes and organizations they have been leaders in.

They join 10 others who have been inducted since the Hall of Fame was created in 2018: Peggy Eggers, Gail Riley, Kristin Witt, Gail Sharp, Rita Felde, Kay D’Evelyn La Montagne, Linda Kirkpatrick, Betsy Hays, Linda Lovin and Susanne Robert.

Also nominated this year were Stephanie Riggi and Valli Crockett.

Cowley, owner of Mountain Home and Alexa Interiors, serves on the boards of the Evergreen Legacy Fund Foundation and Center for the Arts Evergreen. She hosts artist receptions and holiday open houses, and is involved in sponsoring local nonprofits.

While Cowley couldn’t attend the luncheon, she said through friend Gail Riley that she was honored to be named to the Hall of Fame with the other women who donate so

much time to benefit the community.

“If you know her, I’m sure you adore her,” Riley said of Cowley.

“She is a downright doer. She is professional, and she takes tasks and wraps them up.”

Riser, owner of the Evergreen Gallery in downtown Evergreen, has been heavily involved in the Evergreen Artists Association, including serving as its president and as manager of the Main Street Fine Art Gallery. She took over the Evergreen Angel program and sponsors other programs that benefit Mount Evans Home Health Care & Hospice, Resilience1220, the Cat Care Society and the Evergreen Garden Club.

“This is quite an honor,” Riser told the group. “I have enjoyed being part of the community for the past 12 years. I love everybody who was nominated. I appreciate all of you.”

She noted that the nominees and winners were a large part of the community.

Real estate agent Erlandson and her husband John, operate PandoraJohn Properties, after Pandora had a long career with Blue Spruce Habitat for Humanity where she created fundraising events for the organization. The Erlandsons created the Boogie at the Barn fundraising concerts, and Pandora serves on the Leadership Evergreen Advisory Board and the Mountain Area Land Trust board.

Pandora, in accepting the award, quoted John, who says, “You are who you hang with.” She said that so many people here do so much for

VOICES

We need yard sign strategies instead of littering our public landscape

W

hen Wellington Webb, my political mentor, was running for Denver Auditor in 1987, one of the running commentaries about the race was that his opponent had placed yard signs on vacant lots throughout Denver. My then fiancé Laurie even wrote a letter to the editor that was published in the Denver Post that questioned what made Wellington’s opponent so attractive to vacant lots, but then said, “Wellington Webb is the choice of yards like mine where people live.”

We had highly contested raises for Board seats on both the Evergreen Parks and Recreation District and the Evergreen Fire Protection District in the May 3 election. Many of the candidates for both bodies had extensive yard sign presence for the

weeks leading up to the election. Unfortunately, the vast majority of those signs appeared to be placed in the public right of way, on public property and attached to public street signs and utilities’ power poles.

Columnist As in the Webb for Auditor campaign in 1987, an active and strategic yard sign strategy has been an important part of any campaign in which I’ve been a part. The presence of a yard sign in someone’s yard is proof that the candidate has earned the support of any voter who places a sign in his or her yard. In addition, it shows that the voter has taken the

GREG ROMBERG

additional step of making a public endorsement of the candidate.

When friends and neighbors see the yard sign, they know that the person who has placed it in his or her yard has taken the time and energy to investigate an election and to share conclusions about how to vote with others.

Conversely, placing signs in more public places shows nothing more than that the candidate has invested in purchasing signs and taken the time to put them in places where they can be seen. It suggests nothing about support for the candidate or that someone is enthusiastic enough to suggest to others that the candidate deserves their votes. While yard signs placed in public areas may provide voters with information about who is running and can improve the name identity of

candidates, they should do nothing to suggest to voters whether such candidates deserve their support.

While the ways candidates reach out to voters have changed with technology that includes mass contacts by email and robo calls, the conventional wisdom in nonpartisan local elections that grass roots, personal campaigning is the most effective way to reach voters remains sound. Candidates in the future should employ yard sign strategies that focus on placing signs in their supporters’ yards instead of littering our public landscape.

The burning question

I

n the Introduction to “The Republic of Imagination,” Professor Azar Nafisi relates an anecdote about a young Iranian ex-pat she calls “Ramin” who, at a book promotion event, basically told her she was wasting her time.

Americans, he said, are very different than Iranians.

He insisted that Americans are from another world and don’t care about books. His words haunted Dr. Nafisi over the years. A decade later, she rebutted Ramin in that Introduction arguing that America still has an imaginative and curious ethos and points to those who haunt bookstores, go to readings and read in the quiet and privacy of their homes as evidence. But with the zealous crusade to ban book after book not only from schools but now from public libraries intensifying from smoldering to burning, I cannot help but find myself in sympathy with the young man’s point.

In his classic novel “Fahrenheit 451,” Ray Bradbury created an eerie but poignant scene in which the Firemen arrive at Mrs. Blake’s house after a neighbor denounced her to the authorities for having books. After dousing her cherished library with kerosene, they C

order her to leave before they set them ablaze. She refuses. In her hand she holds the instrument that will prevent them from setting them afire.

A simple match, which she strikes, doing the deed Columnist herself. In so doing, Mrs. Blake throws herself upon the pyre and self-immolates along with her treasure.

Whose act is pernicious and whose is noble? You decide.

“Fahrenheit 451” is a chilling tale despite its heated message.

Bradbury wrote it eight years after the most notorious of book burners were defeated. But the climate in America then was hardly free and open. It was the McCarthyism era, a shameful period of our past that was also an ominous prescient preview of America in the third decade of the twentieth-first century.

We are, despite George Santayana’s warning, in danger of repeating that past because we haven’t learned the lessons from it.

The title of “Fahrenheit 451” is derived from the temperature paper

reaches when torched. One wonders what the emotional temperature of book banners is. I surmise considerably higher than 98.6.

Is it fair to equate book burning with book banning? Yes. The difference is merely a matter of degrees.

While banning does not physically destroy books, it has the same effect as burning. It is censorship, a form of silencing as Professor Nafisi contends.

“Book bans,” she posited in a Washington Post op-ed, “are canaries in coal mines — indicators of the direction in which a society is moving.”

She, like Ramin, ought to know, having borne debilitating afflictions at the hands of Iran’s theocratic censors and refusing to buckle.

Book banning is more than silencing writers and depriving readers, particularly the young, of the opportunity to learn about and debate the merits of ideas. It is a form of dumbing down. Students subjected to such bans will inherently have comparatively limited proficiencies in multiple areas vis-à-vis their unencumbered peers. Thus, they will be underprepared for the world in which they will soon be engaging as adults. The antithesis of

t what Shakespeare’s King Henry V averred before the literal Battle of Agincourt: “All things be ready if our minds be so.”

The burning question each citizen must answer is how they will respond to the censoring. One powerful strategy is reading and talking openly about books under assault.

I sardonically quip that in a way I should thank the banners for helping me to compile my reading list.

Some of the proscribed books I have read, but many, especially newer ones on the scene, I haven’t. Yet. Not all are my normal cup of literary tea, but then my curiosity prompts me to dig into them to see what the fuss is all about. Unsurprisingly, I keep finding that it is, as the Bard once wrote, much ado about nothing.

“You don’t have to burn books to destroy a culture,” Bradbury said.

“Just get people to stop reading them.”

Indeed. We are at a crossroad. To paraphrase Hamlet, to read unfetteredly or not to. That is the burning question before us.

Looking for Blue Sky

T

o me, the names Everest and Evans were interchangeable.

As a boy brought up under the billion-year-old granite massif of the Rocky Mountain Front Range, both signified the tallest mountain, either of the world or of my world. Both were the focus of a landscape: Everest, declared the world’s third pole, and Evans, the alpine height of my home hills. The difference of 15,000 feet is larger than Evans is high. Yet besides being linked in one kid’s imagination, there are important similarities between the mountains and their names besides starting with the same letters.

The mountain held an aloof pres-

ence in my childhood, occasionally popping into view around a bend in the road when I would exclaim that “I could see Mount Everest,” only to be corrected that I could see Evans.

Even now I can feel my eyes roll at the nitpicking. No land extended above that little arched peak extending from the high ridge. What was the difference?

Much of my life I would hold memories of a drive to its top — not possible on Everest — that I assumed had taken place far from my home, not simply above it. Visions of meadows and wide vistas crowded my mind, displaying a new and confusing sight. A view of familiar territory instead of from it. I was on the horizon looking back.

These memories are stored in a specific folder of local memories that feel alien, meadows that I have searched for with a zeal, never finding them but knowing they were nearby. The drive is still my only experience of altitude sickness and the elevation lent them a fairy quality of idyllic beauty.

This wonder has long been found in mountains, on both Evans and Everest. Both went unascended until foreigners arrived. For me it was a visit from my Indiana cousins that prompted the ascent. For Evans in general, the painter Alfred Bierstadt was the first recorded to walk to its top, though one of the many Native Americans that crowd his painting of the mountain or their ancestors

may have summited first. He referred to the peak as Mount Rosalie or Mont Rosa after the woman who he would marry and the famous Alp respectively, firmly planting the mountain in a colonial space. This was a mountain dedicated to people on the East Coast and a culture from Europe.

Mountains are the loci of landscapes. From their peaks you can map and survey new territory and change the cultural story of that land. The name Everest ties back to the British Sir George Everest, Surveyor General of India, a blatantly colonial occupation of mapping for political power. The name Everest SEE PEARSON, P10

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

We are justified in building a new fire station I am writing this as an open letter to the community regarding the new fire stations for Evergreen and Foothills. The community should visit the fire department’s website under the link “Future of Station One,” and they will see that there is more than enough justification for building the new facility.

The fire district owns the land and they have saved up nearly $6 million to build it. They are also scaling it back due to the rising supply chain issues and rise in costs. This station will consolidate the existing stations 1 and 4.

It also needs to be large enough to house and aerial truck. Evergreen needs a second aerial tower. This will actually drop your insurance rates. This truck can also provide mutual aid to Elk Creek.

The Foothills Fire District and Alpine Rescue are also getting new stations, but these are being built at no cost by Northstar Ventures. Foothills

responds to the interstate. It covers the area of Mount Vernon, Lookout Mountain, Riva Chase and Idledale. This includes the land around Red Rocks that isn’t West Metro.

These stations will have hot and cold areas for firefighter bunker gear, hoses and equipment that is contaminated. Firefighters get cancer. We need to thank our volunteers for putting $4 per gallon gas in their personal vehicles to go to a fire or medical calls for free. They deserve top-notch facilities that yes even offer quarters for overnight or weekend shifts as well as recreation, fitness etc.

Please turn off the noise by disgruntled people who didn’t get their way.

We don’t need grant writers. We don’t need amateurs. Every fire district has a professional fire chief and staff now. There are standards of cover. They exceed them or will once these facilities are completed.

ties back to Mallory and the tragic British attempts at the summit.

It grounds British history in the Himalayan landscape.

The names imprinted on the landscape of my home tell a similar story — one of conquest and native erasure. The peaks, in order of ascending elevation, were Squaw (the racist term for Native women), then Chief (the male equivalent), and above them Evans, which was renamed from Mount Rosalie to honor John Evans, the second territorial governor of Colorado who was forced to resign in 1865 for his participation in the Sand Creek Massacre which killed 230 native people. Stories rarely get clearer than that.

Although they are set in stone, the stories of a landscape are always changing. Earlier this year, Squaw was renamed Mestaa’ehehe Mountain, meaning Owl Woman in Cheyenne and honoring an influential translator in Colorado’s history.

The Mestaa’ehehe coalition behind the name change is made up of members of the Tsétsêhéstâhese (Cheyenne) and Hinono’eiteen (Arapaho) tribes and now have their eyes set on Mount Evans, the proposed name being Mount Blue Sky. They say this “signifies the Arapaho as they were known as the Blue Sky People and the Cheyenne who have an annual ceremony of life called Blue Sky.” As someone who has spent much

of their life below the mountain, it is also accurate. While I now live in Montana, the big sky state, I have thought of home as blue sky country. The sunshine and pure blue sea of sky a calling card of the mountain’s ridgelines. The 14,271 peak is a true skyscraper.

Peaks define land. The name Mount Evans is carried by the peak’s ridgeline, the batholith beneath it, and the wilderness area surrounding it. Renaming it to Blue Sky will help to recognize the native peoples still part of this land and its future and in so doing set the mountain squarely in its own setting.

When the German-American

Bierstadt painted what he would call Mount Rosalie, he depicted it like its namesake Alp, the summit rising dramatically into the sky and out of reality. But Blue Sky is a name grounded in Colorado and the Front Range. It serves to sever the connection with Everest and dissipate some of the settler colonialism that remains embedded in the mountains of the American West.

For this mountain is not like Everest or even like Pikes Peak to the south. It is not a well defined separated summit, isolated and reaching towards the sky. It is the tip of a much larger area, simply the highest point on a large ridge.

First among near equals. It is not

the alps-esque spire of Bierstadt’s imagination, significant due to its isolation, but a slower build that points to the verticality and sloping nature of the land all around it. It does not jutfrom the landscape but is holistically part of it. It is defining yet driveable. It is a monument not to itself but to the land around it. It is an indicator or landmark of a place, not only its own dramatic beauty. This is Mount Blue Sky.

Morrison board strikes down special review for chapel space The board voted not to turn the old chapel on Bear Creek Avenue into a new events space, citing community concerns

BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Morrison Town Board rejected a special review for the property at 905 Bear Creek Avenue to be turned into a for-profit wedding chapel for weddings, events, parties and more.

“The subject property is .77 acres and has an existing 2,880 square foot wedding chapel structure. The for-profit wedding chapel was approved by special review in 1991 and included a 140-seat chapel, 39 parking spaces with 49 percent of the site maintained as open space,” according to public hearing documents. “On July 3, 2018, the property was rezoned to PD – Planned Development to facilitate redevelopment of the property to accommodate a specialty retail running store (Pacing the Cage) and complementary offices.

Fire extinguished on Nob Hill in the El Rancho area

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Evergreen and Foothills firefighters quickly doused a grass fire in the El Rancho area May 11 that burned less than a quarter acre.

Firefighters got to the scene quickly and aggressively attacked the

flames, according to Stacee Martin, spokeswoman for Evergreen Fire/ Rescue. The fire was on Nob Hill at Industrial Way, which is on the south side of Evergreen Parkway west of the Walmart.

Martin said the fire’s cause is under investigation.

running store, and complimentary offices shall be considered a Special Review Use, subject to Special Review standards and processes.”

The applicant, Justin Clark of JR Clark Enterprises, submitted the first application for the new event space on Sept. 1, 2021.

The application process has been ongoing since, with reviews and resubmittals stacking up after feedback and comments from inspectors, board members and the town planner.

On May 11, 2022, the board decided that the applicant did not address the board and town planner’s concerns with parking, fencing, lighting, occupancy and other building requirements. This

comes after three resubmittals to the original special-review application.

Clark expressed his frustrations with the process, saying “we need the town to work with us.”

The board voted 5-1 in favor of denying the application. Adam Way voted against the denial, and Matt Schweich was absent.

Ultimately, the public present at the meeting agreed with the decision. Earlier in the meeting, public comments expressing concerns about traffic, wildlife and environmental impact were heard.

“We need to protect the interests of our residents,” said board member Katie Gill, after hearing the concerns from the public.

Bro-vocateur CONIFER – The way Zeppo told it to deputies on April 18, shortly after he’d picked up his brother, Groucho, at the liquor store the night before, the ungrateful Groucho had punched him in the puss. Zeppo didn’t want to press charges against Groucho, but he hadn’t seen his surly sibling since and thought it prudent that officers look in on him.

Deputies found Groucho at home appearing dapper and dandy and telling a very different tale. The way Groucho recounted it, Zeppo had been “taunting me” and “challenging me to fight,” and Groucho had merely obliged him with set of

knuckles to the noodle. Groucho said he’d then left the vehicle in the interest of peace only to have Zeppo“tackle me” to the ground and rain blows upon Groucho’s bean.

Deputies bade the battling brothers to behave better and boogied.

Riding along with Morrison PD Morrison PD began services at the start of the month and is ready to keep the town safe

BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Morrison Police Department began responding to calls on May 1, and things have been relatively quiet since then.

Previously, the Morrison Police Department had not been fully staffed since August 2020 when Chief George Mumma left the department.

The town hired Misty Siderfin as its new chief in July 2021, but she left just three months later stating she was “unable to continue within this role due to the limited resources, lack of financial stability and budgeting for the police department, demands for the police department to support its own budget, lack of transparency and extremely low numbers of quality applicants for the current vacancies.”

Siderfin was never able to staff a full department, despite raising starting officer salaries from $43,000 to $55,000 annually.

In February of this year, Morrison hired Bill Vinelli as the new police chief. Within less than a month of his hire, he had fully staffed the department that had not had a full crew since August 2020. Chief Vinelli was the former deputy police chief at the Florence Police Department. His team is composed of people he has worked with in the past.

Spending a quiet Wednesday riding along with Sgt. Josh Sweeney and Officer Ariana Isom was a perfect opportunity to learn some of their highlights as members of the force.

Sweeney has been in law enforcement for 15 years. Before joining, he was a bouncer with off duty Denver Police Officers who convinced him to join the police force.

He spent six months in Burling-

ton, five years in Salida, eight years in Florence, now he starts his new chapter as a sergeant. in Morrison.

Throughout his service, Sweeney said, “I’ve gotten to do all kinds of neat things.”

He has worked on a SWAT team, been a driving, SWAT and activeshooter instructor, and has fulfilled many other roles during his time in the police force.

One of Sweeney’s funniest calls was responding to a DUI years ago.

“One of my first DUI stops–it was a car full of people driving on the railroad tracks, and when I got there he [the driver] was sitting on the lap of the passenger and claimed the driver ran,” he said.

Officer Ariana Isom spent two years as a Colorado State Trooper, two years as a Corporal in Florence and now starts her chapter in Morrison.

Officer Isom has extensive experience with traffic incidents from

her time as a state trooper, and is a level 3 crash investigator. She said she enjoys the math behind a crash.

“I like math–a crash can end up being like a puzzle–there’s different equations you can use,” she said, referring to how you find out speeds drivers were going and other factors in the accident.

Officer Isom’s main goal through her service is treating people with respect.

“It’s all about how you talk with people and how you treat people,” she said.

She hopes that even when she needs to issue a citation, people come away from the situation feeling safe and heard.

“My ultimate goal after a call: you want people to say thank you,” she said.

The Morrison Police Department is now fully staffed, and residents can expect to see them out and

about.

Chief Vinelli said the force has been met with overwhelming positivity from the community. He is working to restore the relationship the community has with local police.

“I hope to accomplish the public trust again,” he said.

Chief Vinelli also hopes to throw out the old reputation of Morrison being a “speed trap.”

“We are police officers like in any other city doing our job,” he said.

“We’re not ticket based revenue funding for our department.”

Since the local force has not been out in past months, they have written a few tickets in their first few weeks on patrol. The chief says they have given far more warnings, however.

“The tickets aren’t the most important goal we have, what we are doing is contacting people that are speeding,” he said.

Experts around Denver metro area weigh in on the popular sport

BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

he South Platte River is a great place to get fish to bite, but local anglers say there’s a lot more to know about the river — and the sport — than just throwing out a line.

The sport of fly fishing, popularized in part by American novelist Ernest Hemingway, is a popular fishing method that involves sight fishing — actual-

ly spotting the fish in the water before you cast — and uses a special rod, reel, line and flies.

The flies themselves are not real. They mimic the fish’s natural diet of insects in the streams and rivers in which they live. Anglers often have a whole kit full of different flies to match the “local cuisine” of bugs where they are fishing.

The Denver South Platte Rick Mikesell’s family has lived in Denver for three generations. He has dedicated many hours to fishing on the Denver South Platte, both on his own time and as a guide. He works as operations manager at Trouts Fly Fishing.

The Denver South Platte,

which runs right through the city, isn’t exactly what one might picture as a traditional fishing destination.

The urban location often has obstacles like rebar, scrap metal, shopping carts and other hazards in the water. Unhoused people often spend time near the river, setting up camp along the banks.

Mikesell said he frequently has people hesitant to fish in these areas because of this population, but he said being respectful to people on the river yields the best results.

“I’ve never had a negative experience as long as I treat other people with respect,” he said.

Colorado Parks & Wildlife does not stock the Denver section of the South Platte. A private entity stocks trout in the metro area, but the other fish in the river, including small mouth bass, carp and walleye, are naturally occurring.

Unfortunately for trout, their life cycle in the DSP can be fairly short. When temperatures begin to rise, these fish start dying.

“When we get into the summertime … .the summer gets really warm. For a trout, water over 68 degrees gets really stressful,” Mikesell said.

Trouts Fly Fishing works on conservation efforts where the outfitter cleans the waters of the river and fundraises for conservation of the area. The group, according to Mikesell, does not believe the DSP should be stocked with trout at this time due to the warm water temperatures.

Further up the hill, things may not be better for trout.

The North Fork of the South Platte The natural flow of the North Fork is that of a small creek.

The waters are polluted with heavy metals like iron, copper and aluminum from various mining operations, according to Mikesell. Denver Water releases more water through Roberts Tunnel from Dillon Reservoir for their service areas, which increases the flow of the river and allows various outfitters to stock the waters with fish.

That is how Mikesell explained the area of the North Fork, which flows into DSP, and John Ellis, longtime angler and member of Evergreen Metro Water Board, corroborated what Mikesell said.

“When it’s real low, the minerals get on their gills and clogs them and essentially suffocates them,” Ellis said.

Ellis is also a board member of Evergreen Trout Unlimited. The

‘Once we get into late May, early June, those fish are at the best time of their lives.’

Rick Mikesell, Fly fishing guide

group’s goal is to conserve and protect coldwater fisheries.

Right now, even in the foothills, conservation groups are worried about the warming waters, too.

“We’re very concerned with climate change,” Ellis said.

His group is working to monitor water temperatures in tributary streams to learn about warming, and members are hoping to replenish the Greenback Cutthroat Trout population, which happens to be Colorado’s state fish.

The warmer water can spell

trouble for the resident insect populations, which are the food source for these fish. Warmer water can also mean less oxygenation for fish.

“How is the bug life doing? As it heats up, sometimes there’s less bugs, then they don’t have the bugs to eat,” Ellis said. “As water gets warmer, it doesn’t have as much oxygen.”

Getting out there Fishing the DSP, North Fork and countless other streams and lakes in Colorado can be a fun way to spend a warm summer day. Mikesell said the sport might take a little getting used to, though.

“For Denver South Platte, while it’s a high quality fishery, it’s not really beginner friendly,” he said.

He said learning to fish the river will take some casting skills and gear. He said becoming a good angler requires a lot of practice.

“If the angler is willing to work at it and spend time, they can improve,” Mikesell said.

After spending years with a fishing rod in hand, even Mikesell doesn’t slay fish every day.

“I’ve been doing it for over 20 years, and I still have bad days all the time,” he said.

Michelle White, owner of Tumbling Trout Fly Shop in Lake George, has been fly fishing for over 20 years. When she became interested in guiding a number of years ago, she found herself stuck in a male-dominated sport

and industry. So she decided to change it.

“One of the reasons I started my own fly fishing business seven years ago … no one would even look at my resume, so I started my own guide service,” she said.

Now, she encourages women to get involved in the sport. With lots of women’s beginner fishing groups popping up around Colorado, she hopes all beginners can enjoy the sport.

“Grab a friend and hire a guide and maybe join one of the women’s fly fishing groups,” she advised.

As for finding the perfect day to go out and fish, Ellis recommends a slightly overcast day for better vision, and Mikesell said to avoid the heat and avoid fishing right after rain storms, which can cloud the water.

Both anglers agreed that one of the most important pieces of gear to have is a pair of polarized sunglasses.

According to Mikesell, during the month of May, the bass and carp are spawning. Then, the fishing gets really good.

“Once we get into late May, early June, those fish are at the best time of their lives,” he said.

A quick Google search can yield hundreds of results for outfitters and guide services for fly fishing in Colorado, so the eager angler can take their pick, or simply get out there and start casting.

Would you like to study abroad or host an exchange student this coming year? we also host students here in Evergreen. Our summer programs include Family to Family exchanges for two like-minded students to stay in each other’s homes for a few weeks in each location. Both programs are life changing for the students and the families who host them.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO HOST AN EXCHANGE STUDENT?

WOULD YOU LIKE TO STUDY ABROAD? Rotary Youth Exchange builds peace one young person at a time. Rotary Youth Exchange provides young people with the opportunity to experience a cultural exchange and to develop as leaders who promote peace and justice around the world.

If you would be interested in hosting a student for three months over the next school year in your home, please volunteer to become a Host Family. Host Families do not need to be members of Rotary, they do not need to have children, and they can even be a single person who is interested in learning about another person’s culture. Lifelong friendships are almost always developed!

If you are interested, check out our website at www.

RMRYE.org or contact Scott@denvermachine.com for more information.

The Rotary Youth Exchange is a study-abroad opportunity for young people who spend anywhere from a few weeks to a full year as an international student hosted by the Rotary Club of Evergreen. Our yearlong programs send students overseas and
