EPRD board considering new dog park proposal

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A sign saying “Equality,” “Respect” and “A Voice for All” hangs on the Mountain Man Hearth & Patio building in Marshdale as part of its patriotic salute to the nation.

Friends of Evergreen Dog Park has a plan to open an off-leash dog park in Evergreen, but it will take cooperation from Jeffco Open Space and the Evergreen Park & Recreation District to make it happen.

Betsy Rich and Dale Glover with FEDP presented their proposal at an EPRD board meeting on June 28, saying they have found a 36-acre parcel next to Fillius Park near the Evergreen King Soopers. They say with financial backing from Jeffco Open Space, EPRD operating the park and FEDP volunteers helping with dog-park maintenance and more, the venture could be successful.

The board voted unanimously to continue exploring the idea, noting that researching the feasibility of the dog park and operating it

The July 4 holiday is a time to celebrate our country’s independence with family and friends.

While some celebrate with family gatherings, fireworks, parades and other fun, Mountain Man Hearth & Patio each year commemorates the holiday with a huge American flag display.

The flags are placed on the building, along the road and in the yard of the business on Highway 73 in Marshdale. They are a colorful and fitting tribute to American independence.

Even the flowers in front of the business are red, white and blue.

OBITUARIES GRAY

Vayann Delores (Almond) Gray October 1, 1925 - April 19, 2022

Vayann Delores (nee Almond) Gray, known as the “Voice of Evergreen National Bank” finished her earthly journey on April 19, 2022 with her beloved daughter Sidney by her side.

future husband, David R Gray.

The two were married at St. Paul’s American Church in Rome with a special blessing at the Vatican.

Vayann was born in St. Louis MO on October 1, 1925. Her family moved to Enid, OK when she was an infant. She was the second of three children born to Julius Henry and Mary (Beasley) Almond. Vayann was incredibly proud to be Oklahoman and after graduating from Enid High School in 1942 she went to the University of Oklahoma in the Fall of ’42 to major in Physical Education.

While at OU, she pledged to the sorority Pi Beta Phi. Vayann became inspired to serve in the Foreign Services hoping to go to South America. Three years into college she couldn’t wait much longer and made the leap to pack up and move to Washington D.C. where she landed a job with the state department. It didn’t take long for a diplomatic department of foreign service assignment to come up, except it wasn’t for South America. The appointment was an emergency assignment to Rome, Italy. She went home to Enid to pack her trunk and fly back to New York to board a boat bound to Rome. This wonderful opportunity would be the beginning of many vivid memories that her family grew to know quite well. While she was on the boat to Rome, she met the one and only Tennessee Williams with whom she shared a dance.

They began married life by moving back to David’s hometown, Denver Colorado, where he was a co-owner of Gray Moving and Storage. They started their family and in 1957 moved to Evergreen with four children in tow. They purchased 120 Acres in Marshdale, and the cabin on the property was rebuilt by the Woodpeckers Home Builders and made into a beautiful home. This is where they raised their 6 children and countless horses and animals. The Gray family homestead is now a beautiful wedding and event venue in Marshdale known as the ‘Red Barn’.

In 1983, Vayann sold the Gray homestead and bought her condo in the Hiwan Golf Club area. She secured a position at Evergreen National Bank and would be known for the next 25 years as the “Voice of Evergreen National Bank”. She finally retired at the age of 85 to enjoy her golden years. The legacy at the bank lives on, as her daughter Sidney and granddaughter Deidre Darling carry on the tradition of working for our hometown bank!

Not a day went by that Vayann didn’t marvel at the incredible beauty of her little mountain town. She was a true lover of the mountains, wildlife, and community that she enjoyed for decades.

Upon arrival to Rome, she found a little villa to share with another Foreign Service person, Ruth Merrell. They worked together for the US Embassy. Vayann met many important dignitaries of that time, including Gore Vidal who wanted to experience Rome from Vayann’s point of view. She escorted him around Rome.

Vayann is survived by her sister, Mimi Traxler; her children Sharman Gray, Shelley (Richard) Hatfield, Robin Gray, Sidney (Tim) Gray-Kurtz, Alexander S Gray; eleven grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

She is preceded in death by her parents, daughter, Sarah Gray Megan and brother Jack Almond.

Vayann was also introduced to her most favorite daily ritual: A dry gin martini every day at 4:30 pm. Anyone that has been blessed to know Vayann, has shared in this very important time of day and her secret for a long, healthy life.

A celebration of her life will be August 13th at Dedisse Park in Evergreen. Donations can be made to St John Chrysostom Orthodox Church, 9300 W Dartmouth Pl, Lakewood, CO 80227 or Mt Evans Home Health and Hospice, 3081 Bergen Peak Dr, Evergreen CO 80439.

Just after World War II, Vayann met her HESLIN

Geno Heslin

Geno was born and raised in Woodside, New York, a small Irish Neighborhood in Queens. He went to private school at Corpus Christy with 2 friends that he has kept in touch with for his whole life. After graduation, he spent 2 years at CW Post in Queens.

At the ripe age of 22 years old he put in for a transfer, with United Airlines, from La Guardia to Denver. When they called his number, he packed his bags and set off, sparking a wave of East Coast migrators bigger than the Beat Generation. He and his hippie entourage tore up the Colorado night scene from Buena Vista to Denver, picking up local groupies along the way that couldn’t help but to admire the charisma he and his friends all had.

Geno had a lot of friends. As a 31-year resident of Evergreen, Colorado, he inspired everyone he met with his many talents, his intelligence, and his quick wits. Everywhere he went you would here “Geno!”… “My man!”…”where have you been?” “Geno!

What’s happening, my man? We have been missing you.” To all of which he would simply reply “Well, I have been busy living. What’s good with you, brother” or “how have you been, darlin?”

He loved to live, and he loved to love. He could capture anyone within the first 5 minutes. People knew right away that they had been graced with someone special. It is no wonder he had so many friends, he was easy to love because he loved back.

In Evergreen, he was able to settle in a little.

He met the love of his life (twice), and lived out his years in the home he loved and was able to call his own. He is survived by his son Ryan, stepson Jimmie, stepdaughter Kim, 2 granddaughters Kennedi and Kori, sister Peggy, brother Brian, Michele his daughterin- law , Kay his widowed girlfriend and everyone else he met along the way.

His funeral service will be at the Elks Club of Evergreen at 2:00 pm, July 17th, and everyone is welcome.

Habitat for Humanity looking to repair homes, volunteers for program

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Many are familiar with Blue Spruce Habitat for Humanity, which builds homes for low-income families and operates a ReStore in Bergen Park.

It’s much less known that Habitat provides a home-repair service, too.

Blue Spruce Habitat is looking for those who meet its income or age requirements to get house repairs and those interested in volunteering to do the work.

David Milanaik, Blue Spruce Habitat’s repair coordinator, said workers will paint, clean gutters, perform basic landscaping, remove brush/ junk, install weather stripping, replace boards on porches, stairs or ramps, and more.

Milanaik explained that while other Habitat organizations in the country have more robust repair programs, Blue Spruce Habitat has been focused on building new homes. Now it’s time to get the repair program moving forward.

“The repair program is a natural extension of building new homes,” Milanaik noted. “We can help people who are already homeowners.”

Homeowners who are 60 and older living in the Jeffco foothills and Clear Creek County can apply for the program, so Habitat can help people who not be able to do the repair work themselves. Those under 60 must meet income-eligibility guidelines, and there are additional rules that participants need to follow, too.

When it comes to volunteers, Blue

Spruce Habitat is looking for both people with specific skills and those who can be trained.

Milanaik hopes that church and service groups who volunteered with the organization before the pandemic will return, and the repair program will be a good place to help others in the community.

“We are just looking for people with time and generous personalities,” he said.

INTERESTED? • To learn more or to sign up for the repair program, contact David Milanaik, repair program coordinator, at dmilanaik@bluesprucehabitat.org or 303-6741127, Ext. 9.

• To sign up to volunteer, contact Jenna Huju, director of volunteer services, at jhuju@bluesprucehabitat.org or 303674-1127, Ext. 2.

CLARIFICATION A story about the Evergreen farmers market that ran in the June 23 edition of the Canyon Courier stated that the farmers market was hosted by Hiwan Heritage Museum

and Park. It is hosted by the Church of the Cross, which shares a parking lot with the Hiwan Heritage Museum and Park.

DEVELOPMENT BRIEFS “I have spent a lot of time and money on redevelopment and rezoning unsuccessfully in the past,” Kortendick said. “I want to see what I’m allowed to do with regard to zoning before I move forward.”

Kortendick also is developing next-door Valley View Estates, which Jefferson County has approved for 18 lots on 10 acres.

Neighbors were concerned that the two lots would have high-density residential development.

Neighbors asked that Jefferson County look at the five-acre parcel and Valley View Estates together as it considers the rezoning request.

Residents also voiced concern over traffic, wildfire and evacuation issues.

Kortendick has not filed the formal rezoning request.

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Residents want Trinchera Trail improvements Residents in the Mountain Park Home and Independence Heights subdivisions hope Jefferson County will improve Trinchera Trail so it is passable by vehicles, especially in a wildfire evacuation.

They have circulated a petition that is now signed by 445 people asking the county to upgrade the half-mile road, which provides a detour to downtown Evergreen from the south. Organizers of the effort have gotten community support and are meeting with Jeffco officials to see what can be done.

According to the petition, “Trinchera Trail is a primitive and narrow dirt road with very large ruts, rock formations and potholes caused by heavy equipment, erosion and the heavy traffic that gets diverted around downtown Evergreen.”

During the Evergreen Rodeo Parade, for example, those who didn’t want to wait in traffic or wanted to bypass the detour traveled from Highway 73 to Little Cub Creek Road to Mountain Park Road to Trinchera Trail and to South Independence Trail to get to the east end of downtown Evergreen.

Organizers say if a wildfire forced evacuations in the area, Trinchera Trail would be difficult for some vehicles to navigate and could cause devastating losses.

According to Doug Rothgeb, who is spearheading the effort, the issue

is complicated because part of the road is on private property. It is not maintained or plowed by the county, he said.

To read the petition, which shows maps of the road and the south detour, visit https://chng.it/8zzHPv2F. Residents concerned about rezoning proposal in El Rancho Residents living near a five-acre lot in the El Rancho area have voiced concerns about a proposal to put homes there.

At a recent community meeting, a

half-dozen residents were concerned about how many homes would be built on the property at 1053 Red Moon Road. They said rezoning the land from Agricultural-1 to Mountain Residential-3 would allow homes incompatible with the large lots of nearby houses.

Mike Kortendick with Landform Inc., who wants to develop the property, said he was considering singlefamily homes and duplexes, and he didn’t know how many would be on the property. He was still exploring options.

Other rezoning approvals: • The Jefferson County Planning Commission unanimously recommended that the county commissioners approve rezoning a 1.88-acre parcel on Upper Bear Creek Road from Commercial-1 to Planned Development to allow two single-family homes on existing lots. The property is at 32214 Upper Bear Creek Road.

• The Planning Commission unanimously recommended that the county commissioners approve rezoning 11.32 acres at 31443 Upper Bear Creek Road from Agricultural-2 to Planned Development to allow for three rental cabins and to modify accessory-structure requirements on an existing single-family home.

‘Everything Evergreen’ hitting the app store in July A new app put out by the Evergreen Chamber of Commerce aims to inform visitors and locals about what the area has to offer

BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Evergreen Area Chamber of Commerce is launching a new app in coming weeks that will help visitors and locals alike find all the information they need to enjoy Evergreen to the fullest.

The app, called “Everything Evergreen,” is slated for release in July.

It will feature sections “eat, shop, play and stay,” which will provide information about businesses, restaurants, recreation areas and more around Evergreen.

Chamber President Nancy Judge said the idea came from the limited hours the visitor’s center in Evergreen is open. She hopes the app can provide on-demand information.

“We live in such an immediate world, that people want that information available to them when they want it,” she said.

Judge saw people posting in community groups looking for recommendations for food, drinks and services, and she envisions the new app being a dedicated space for people to find this kind of information.

“The coolest part to me is that all the information will be available to everyone at their fingertips,” Judge said.

The app, which will be free to download in the app store, will require no logins, and the information in the downloaded app will be available even without service or Wifi.

“Everything Evergreen” will be a

be accessible in the app.

Judge said the local businesses involved are excited to collaborate with the app launch, and she sees this being a useful resource for visitors and residents.

Annual literary festival planned on Oct. 15 in Genesee

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Book lovers: It’s time to plan for the eighth annual Rocky Mountain Literary Festival.

The festival on Oct. 15 is sponsored by Bootstraps Inc., the organization that provides scholarships to students. The festival has a twofold mission: to bring together authors, book lovers and the community to spend a day talking about books and to support Bootstraps Inc.’s mission to provide scholarships for students attending college or trade school.

“People who love to read love this event,” said Nancy Hiester, Bootstraps’ director of development. “(The festival) brings in unique authors who have different perspectives on writing.”

Susan Henry, Bootstraps’ executive director, said last year’s festival had four authors who were informative and entertaining, and this year will be no exception.

“They brought a lot of value to the day,” Henry said about last year’s festival. “By the end of the day, everyone was so happy.”

Authors give 45-minute presentations, plus they autograph books to give participants a chance for oneon-one time.

This year’s four authors have written in a range of genres: • Jon Billman, a former wildland firefighter and high school teacher, wrote “The Cold Vanish” about the efforts and emotions behind individuals and organizations searching

WANT TO GO? The Rocky Mountain Literary Festival will be from 8:30 a.m.-3 p.m. Oct. 15 at Mount Vernon Canyon Club in Genesee.

Tickets include a continental breakfast and lunch, and are available at rockymountainliteraryfestival.org. New this year are tables for sale so book clubs and other groups can sit together. for people lost in the wilderness.

• Scott Graham recently published his seventh in the National Parks Mystery Series called “Canyonlands Carnage” about whitewater rafting and the value of water in the West.

• Maya Shanbhag Lang’s memoir called “What We Carry: A Memoir” tells the story of a child of a successful Indian immigrant whose understanding of her family is turned upside down when her mother develops Alzheimer’s.

• Local author Melissa Payne has written “The Night of Many Endings” in which the characters are trapped by a snowstorm in a library, where they have the chance to see the world through someone else’s eyes.

The festival will be emceed by Ausma Zehanat Khan, who was a featured author in 2017 for her mystery and fantasy series.

The authors at the festival are selected by a committee of eight to 10 volunteers who read more than 30 books, rating them to determine who will be good for the festival.

Henry lauded the executive com-

mittee for organizing the festival, saying the committee puts on an event that is fun and good for the community, and very beneficial for student scholarship recipients.

“If we didn’t have great authors, it wouldn’t be a great festival,” Henry said.

Meet the Morrison board: mayor pro-tem Katie Gill Gill, a 30-year Morrison resident, is making a difference in local government

BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Leading efforts to save Bear Creek Lake Park and serving on the Morrison Board of Trustees keep Katie Gill busy, but she’s up for the challenge.

Gill has been on the Morrison Town Board since 2016, and was recently appointed as the mayor pro-tem. She is the founder and head of Save Bear Creek Lake Park, and uses her passion to serve the town of Morrison on a variety of issues.

She has been fighting to save the park from being flooded by the Army Corps of Engineers which hopes to store 20,000 acre feet of water in the lake that currently has 2,000 acre feet of water, in an attempt to help meet the state’s water needs. The group’s website provides information about the cause and ways to get involved.

Before she was on the board, members of the community urged Gill to run for trustee. She has spent 30 years living in town, and knows the people and issues.

Katie Gill COURTESY PHOTO

“I did want to play a more active role in our community,” she said.

Gill recently retired from being a teacher in Jeffco Public Schools. In

her teaching career, Gill taught English Language Arts, among many other subjects. Before she worked in Jeffco, she also spent time teaching in Gilpin County and Aztec, New Mexico.

When she’s not working to save the beauty of Colorado, Gill is usually out enjoying it. She likes to kayak, raft and backcountry ski all around the state and the US. She spends time in Morrison at the nearby parks, and hiking and biking on the trails around town.

“I like that it’s a walkable community,” she said.

As for goals for her work on the board, Gill has plenty. Like the rest of the members, she definitely wants to “Keep Morrison Morrison.”

“I really want to preserve the beauty of our valley and the small town quality of life,” she said. “I want to help make Morrison more sustainable and more resilient.”

Gill hopes to strengthen the relationship the town has with the new police department, and wants to make sure the officers feel welcome in Morrison.

“I want them to feel like they’re a part of our town,” she said.

As a board member, Gill aims to be a powerhouse who “does her homework.” She describes herself as detail oriented, knowledgeable about the town and willing to learn more about whatever she needs to.

VOICES

True or false: What to know when it comes to sun protection

W

ith summer officially here, you may be rushing outside to enjoy the sunshine and warm weather.

You may also be thinking about how to best protect your skin.

More people in the U.S. are diagnosed with skin cancereach year than all other cancers combined, and most skin cancer is associated with sun exposure. Knowing how to help protect your skin from the sun may have a lasting impact.

To help set the record straight, here is some useful information on some common sun protection myths.

True or false? Your sunscreen should have UVA and UVB protection.

True: When walking down the sunscreen aisle, the choices can be overwhelming. Start by looking for a sunscreen that provides broad spectrum protection. That means it filters both types of ultraviolet radiation.

TheSkin Cancer Foundationsays that ultraviolet A rays are present all day and can cause skin-aging and wrinkling while ultraviolet B rays are strongest during peak hours (10

a.m. to 4 p.m.) and can cause sunburns.

Both types have been linked to skin cancer.

True or false?

One application of sunscreen lasts all day.

False: Sunscreen should be reapplied throughout the day Dr. Jennifer Malin and SPF, or sun protection factor, can help you know how often. If you typically burn after 10 minutes in the sun, multiply that number by the SPF. For SPF 30, this would translate to 300 minutes, but the sunscreen will start to rub off before then. So, reapply often, at least every two hours.

Sunscreens should also be reapplied immediately after swimming, toweling off or excessive sweating.

True or false? You should use the highest SPF possible.

False: You may be surprised to learn that higher SPF does not always mean better protection. You may not need anything higher than SPF 30 if you’re applying gener-

YOUR HEALTH

ously and often. This is because, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation,SPF 30 protects against 97% of the sun’s rays, while SPF 50 increases that just a bit – to 98%.

True or false? A little dab of sunscreen goes a long way.

False: To get a sunscreen’s full protection, you should consider applying about oneounce (about two tablespoons). Again, it’s important to reapply every two hours, or right after coming out of the water.

True or false? You can get sun damage on a cloudy day.

True: One of the most common mistakes people make is forgetting about incidental sun exposure. Your skin is still soaking up UV rays even on cloudy days or while driving with the windows down. To help protect skin in such situations, consider making protection part of your normal routine. Put sunscreen on first thing in the morning, even if you aren’t thinking about going outside – be consistent.

True or false? Sunscreen is better than covering up.

False: While sunscreen is vital and should be used, it’s important to stay covered up. Wear lightweight,

tightly woven hats, shirts and pants.

Combine sunscreen and sun-protective clothing for your strongest protection.

True or false? Both sunscreen spray and sunscreen lotion offer the same protection.

It depends. While sunscreen spray can be easier to apply, it comes with a few risks. Sunscreen spray is harder to control and most people do not use enough — experts recommend spraying each area of your body for at least six seconds. You also need to rub it in after application. In addition, ingredients in spray sunscreens may be irritating to your lungs if inhaled, so you’ll want to be sure you’re not spraying it directly on your face. Consider using a lotion for a base and reapplying with spray instead.

Summer is a great time to get you and your loved ones outside to enjoy the fresh air, outdoor activities and exercise under the sun so don’t let concerns about sunscreen stop you from enjoying the warmer weather.

Dr. Jennifer Malin is the chief medical officer at Optum.

Scan your body regularly: early detection is key

H

aving kidney stones this year saved my life.

It seems like a bizarre thing to say, but in the process of being diagnosed with those stones via a CT scan, a tumor was also discovered on my left kidney. It was something that got my attention in a hurry.

I resolved to learn everything I could about the conditions and causes of this tumor. What the tumor consisted of was a renal cell carcinoma.

It was a slow-growing thing that was about 4 centimeters long when discovered. It also had taken up residence in my body for approximately 10 years prior to its discovery.

These sorts of tumors are in fact surprisingly common. Actor Cameron Mathison and New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy have been diagnosed with the same cancer.

Mr. Mathison and I both had partial kidney removal to get rid of our cancers, Gov. Murphy had to have a full removal of one of his kidneys.

I read where at least 50,000 of these full or partial kidney removals (nephrectomy) are done in the C

Cancer survivor is not something I imagined I would Columnist be able to say about myself when 2022 began. From the time I was diagnosed with cancer to the successful eviction of this tumor from my body, it was a little less than four months.

Because my treatment was so quick and comprehensive, it seems like I am appropriating something — cancer survivor — that is not mine. But I was diagnosed with a cancer that could have killed me. It was found in the early stages, which made the doctor’s jobs easier, thank God. I had an easier time of it than others because I was very, very fortunate. I had kidney stones, which led to the discovery of a tumor that

could have killed me. Now the tumor is out of my body, and it has a very low chance of reoccurrence.

I would be remiss if I did not publicly thank the fine professionals at the Urology Center of Colorado, including Dr Devin Patel, for bringing this matter to a swift and successful conclusion. They are true professionals that are doing what is necessary for the care of others in our state on a regular basis. I am grateful everyday that our paths crossed.

Finally, my situation was caught and resolved through luck. If I could emphasize one thing to each of you, it is the importance of scanning your body regularly to detect the problems that may exist and cause havoc. Through good luck and fortune, I was able to resolve my problems.

Early detection of any issue is worth quite a bit in terms of peace of mind and good health for the long term.

Park & Rec Month at EPRD

Ever-CLEAN up a mess that you didn’t make yourself?

Starting on May 26th, volunteers turned out on Thursdays to beautify six of Evergreen’s community parks. The park clean up effort was coined “Let’s Keep Evergreen Ever-CLEAN,” by Evergreen Park and Recreation District (EPRD). Park Operations Manager, Heart Cameron, had the vision and the community connections to make it happen! EverCLEAN kicked off with the Rotary Club of Evergreen providing volunteers, who removed inappropriate graffiti and litter at Wulf’s Skate Park. Shortly after, the Indian Hills Community Center rallied volunteers by merging their weekly Pancake Breakfast with Ever-CLEAN at Arrowhead Park. Evergreen Audubon turned out at the Lake House to help pull noxious weeds from the grasslands parallel to Upper Bear Creek Road. EPRD’s “Ever-CLEAN” proves that community collaboration can make tangible progress when we share the same goal: preserving nature.

There’s no greater celebration of nature than National Park and Recreation Month in July! EPRD proclaimed this at their Board of Director Meeting on June 28th, which proves that its newly elected Board understands how much teamwork and coordination it takes to run a special district like Evergreen. Join us as we celebrate and recognize the people who make it happen: •

The Park Operations Team “never really knows what their day will look like,” according to Luke Boldman, “and that’s the way we like it!” They conduct fire mitigation, park maintenance, create and maintain signage, and are the backbone to all community events.

RECREATION

Golden gem offers scenic getaway just outside the metro

Outdoor recreation abounds in White Ranch Park

BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

At nearly 4,000 acres, White Ranch Park is the largest park in the Jeffco Open Space system. Inside, you’ll find more than 21 miles of multi-use trails winding through a mix of moderate and rugged terrain.

Most trails are open to the public with the exception of two sensitive areas, which can be accessed only by permit. A 0.9 mile segment of the Longhorn Trail is designated as bike only.

Day trips, picnics, overnight camping — this place has it all. You can do trail runs, hike, mountain bike or saddle up and ride your pony.

Birdwatchers flock to see warblers, red tails and several other species.

And as with most open space in this part of the foothills, larger wildlife is sometimes close at hand. A lucky hiker might spot elk, deer, wild turkeys or even a black bear on a trip through the park.

With elevations rising above 7,200 feet in some locations, White Ranch Park has scenic views to channel your inner Ansel Adams or just add to your Instagram feed.

Hikers will find a walk around the White Ranch Loop Trail a great way to decompress with plenty of beautiful vistas, wildflowers and stately stands of ponderosa pine to make you forget you’re just minutes from the city. The Ralston Buttes are a sight to see, so have your camera ready for a closeup.

White Ranch Loop Trail is 4.6 miles long and gains more than 900 feet of elevation, so give yourself a couple of hours to enjoy it. It will surely make you remember the reason so many people come to Colorado.

Although a few are designated to be pretty easy, most of the park’s trails require an intermediate level of ability.

Some, including Belcher Hill, Mustang and Upper Longhorn, can be quite challenging, so water and some sturdy shoes will be your best friends.

Camping White Ranch Park is one of two Jeffco Open Space parks that allows for permitted camping. Sawmill and Sourdough Springs Campgrounds offer semi-primitive, tent-only, walkin camping in designated sites that is available by online permit. Required camping permits must be obtained at least 24 hours in advance. Permits are $12 per campsite per night and valid for up to three consecutive nights. Camping is limited to a total of six nights within a 30-day period.

The park is open daily one hour before sunrise to one hour after sunset.

The open carry and discharge of firearms is prohibited, as are open fires, marijuana use and motor vehicles.

Special events or commercial activity requires a permit. Dogs must remain on leash. Restrooms are available and parking can be found at both trailheads.

Trail running is a popular activity in Golden’s White Ranch Park.

would take considerable staff time and effort before the EPRD board would decide whether to move forward. The board appointed board President Don Rosenthal and board member Mary McGhee to serve on a subcommittee looking at the dogpark potential.

“This is a big project, a big push, and you can’t push everything at once,” Rosenthal said. “I’m supportive of pushing this along.”

Board members agreed that community input would be needed before the board would make a decision.

Rosenthal said EPRD staff will

The proposal FEDP hopes EPRD will purchase the property and operate the dog park. Jeffco Open Space has offered up to $1 million to EPRD to purchase the property and up to $200,000 for construction costs.

Glover said the dog park would be fenced with members paying a fee to use the park to help control the number of users. FEDP envisions three trails — one that would make an 8/10 of a mile loop along Evergreen Parkway, one in the middle of the hill and one at the top.

He said the north area of the park is heavily wooded so it would

Colorado Broadband Foundation Tees Up First Fundraising Event:

Birdies For Broadband at Evergreen Golf Course

Once upon a time we wrote snail mail letters to our family and friends, and counted the days before we received a reply. Our kids did their homework on printed worksheets brought home from school, and trusted the Encyclopedia Britannica to know the dates of the Civil War and the capital of Uruguay.

Today we send e-mail and rely on Google and YouTube for anything we need to know.

The Internet is pretty darned awesome, but it does come at a cost. Unfortunately for many individuals and families around the world, Internet access is an unaffordable luxury, and our community is no exception.

About two years ago Clear Creek Broadband (CCB) was launched to provide reliable Internet service in Clear Creek County and Evergreen area at a lower cost than competitors. With more than six hundred subscribers CCB continues to expand, but for some who struggle financially, it is still unaffordable without help.

Enter the Colorado Broadband Foundation (CBF). This non-profit organization’s mission is to raise funds to assist those in need in the CCB serviced community and other local families to receive subsidies for Internet service.

We are excited to announce our first CBF fundraiser: “Birdies For Broadband” golf tournament on August 11th at the Evergreen Golf Course on Upper Bear Creek Road. A day of fun, frolic, food, and drink awaits!

provide a buffer for the homes to the north.

Glover promised that FEDP would provide volunteers to help EPRD get the needed permits, and to do maintenance, cleanup, education, trail development and fundraising.

FEPD hopes the dog park would support itself financially and could even provide EPRD with additional income for other programs.

“This is perfect for Evergreen,” Glover said. “We all want to go hiking. Having an off-leash area and enjoying the view is the experience we’re looking for.”

The traffic light at Evergreen and Bergen parkways by King Soopers would help regulate traffic flow, he said, and the road is gated, so only those accessing the dog park would get in. Parking would be along the roadway and in a parking area.

Rich said an off-leash dog park was an integral part of recreation activities, noting that the former dog park had 4,000 visitors weekly with 45% coming from outside of Evergreen. She explained if Jeffco Open Space operates a dog park, it is considered a regional park, which brings more visitors from outside the area. She believed the dog park on Stagecoach Boulevard that was closed in 2017 was attractive to outsiders because it was 107 acres rather than the 36 acres being proposed.

Five years in the making FEDP has been looking for a new dog park location since Jeffco Open Space closed the off-leash park, citing overcrowding, parking issues, animal waste, contaminated waterway and erosion as reasons for the closure. The closure caused an uproar in Evergreen, and FEDP members said it cleaned up the dog waste, the water wasn’t contaminated, and it was ready to operate the park.

On the fifth anniversary of the Evergreen off-leash dog park closing, several residents asked the Jefferson County commissioners to fast-track finding a new location, saying they believe the county has been dragging its feet. FEDP and Jeffco Open Space looked at other locations, but FEDP said Jeffco Open Space put up roadblocks. Jeffco Open Space has said there were other barriers to finding a dog-park location.

EPRD comments Cory Vander Veen, EPRD’s executive director, said the staff was excited to explore the site and the dog-park opportunity.

Board member Monty Estis said it was always good for EPRD to provide constituents with more services.

“This is a big project,” he said. “If we are going to work on this, there is probably something else we won’t be working on. I’d like us to consider what other rec opportunities we could have on that property. … We need to consider this in the context of the strategic plan as well.”

McGhee noted as ERPD looked at the proposal, it would need to ensure that Fillius Park doesn’t become a de facto off-leash dog park because it is adjacent to the proposed dog park.

“We have to as staff anticipate the worse behaviors and how to manage them,” Vander Veen said. “We have to plan for everything and anything so we can manage it long-term.”

Rosenthal added: “But if this doesn’t work, we have the right to close it.”

A year ago, Jeffco Open Space asked EPRD if it would consider operating a dog park, and that EPRD board have seven conditions: the land must be close to district property, usage can be controlled, the park meets community needs, the park is economically viable, EPRD is held harmless for environmental damage, EPRD has liability insurance and EPRD can close the dog park if the board feels it is not working.

Three community members voiced support for ERPD undertaking an off-leash dog park, saying it would be an important asset to the community.

However, community member Robert Gottsman said he opposed the idea because he didn’t believe EPRD should be managing a dog park. EPRD, instead, should be providing more programs for people.

LIFE

BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

ummer is here. July is upon us.

And perhaps nothing defines the season as well as a cold, creamy scoop or two on a cone — or in a bowl, if you prefer. What else appeals so effortlessly to all ages, putting summertime smiles on kids and kids-at-heart?

In fact, Americans consume about 23 gallons of ice cream annually, according to the International Dairy Foods Association. And in case you didn’t know, July has been celebrated as National Ice Cream Month since Ronald Reagan signed the proclamation way back in ‘80s. July is also, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, tied with August for the two most popular months to eat ice cream — a statistic that surely surprises no one.

Ask a few people who has the best ice cream in the Denver metro area, and then sit back and be amazed at the number of answers you get.

In the old days, it was easy. There was Baskin Robbins and DQ, and for a special occasion, you might get a counter seat at Dolly Madison.

Then there was Farrell’s, and later, Swensen’s, but these were both chains that came here from other places. Nothing about them was particularly connected to Colorado. And in more recent history, the opening of Magill’s in Lakewood and Bonnie Brae in south Denver signaled that a new era was at hand.

These days, the continuing trend of boutique ice cream joints using premium ingredients has ushered in what is undoubtedly the golden era of cold and creamy goodness in the metro area. When you make a list, it’s easy to see there are several formidable contenders cranking out delicious frozen delights. So, making a list is what we have done.

To be clear, this is no contest. The order of the list is not scientific or any type of ranking at all, but merely the order in which they popped into the author’s head. You may use it as a type of map, as it were, to the coolest mini road trip in the metro. Pun intended.

• Bonnie Brae Ice Cream opened in 1986 and has been cranking out the cold stuff ever since.

• Little Man Ice Cream Company started in 2008 in the Lower Highlands neighborhood and has grown to six distinct locations across the Front Range including — aside from the flagship store — The Little Man Ice Cream Factory, DANG Soft Serve, Old Town Churn, The Constellation and Sweet Cooies.

• Sweet Cow now has six locations plus a truck, the MooMobile. Their ice cream is made in small batches and crafted at each location.

• Liks Ice Cream has been a staple in Capitol Hill forever. They’re family-owned and now have a second location in Conifer.

• Nuggs, the brainchild of Chris and Nick O’Sullivan of Brother’s BBQ, has been serving cool, creamy treats to folks in Park Hill and Mayfair since 2014.

• Magill’s on the west side of Denver has had

you covered for the last four decades. This unassuming Lakewood strip-mall shop has them lined up most evenings, no matter the weather.

The huckleberry is to die for. Plus, it’s just fun to say huckleberry.

• Sweet Action opened on Broadway in 2009 and now has four locations serving flavors as fun as you’ll find anywhere, with plenty of vegan options in the mix. You can also find them in Washington Park, Uptown and Jefferson Park.

• High Point Creamery’s Erika Thomas and Chad Stutz have been serving ice cream with elevated flavor profiles in Hilltop, RINO and Berkeley. They also have a food truck they call “Big Pinky” — it’s pink — to cater to every ice cream need.

• Em’s Ice Cream in Park Hill is getting ready to launch a second location in Wheat Ridge at 26th and Kipling.

• Scrumptious can be discovered a bit further north in Olde Town Arvada. According to its website, the business makes all of their ice cream in-house.

• Inside Scoop in Littleton, with another location on Platte Street, serves 20 flavors that are homemade daily and go perfectly with a handcrafted waffle cone, which they also make fresh.

If your favorite didn’t make the list, don’t fret. But feel free to drop us a line about what makes it great, and we’ll update the web version of this story to keep the metro area’s ice cream addicts up to date on all of the news they need to know.

A large group of abortion rights advocates takes to the streets of Denver on June 27 to PHOTOS BY BOB WOOLEY protest the Supreme Court’s reversal of Roe v. Wade.

Pro-choice demonstrators gather at the State Capitol to protest the U.S. Supreme Court’s reversal of Roe v. Wade during a June 27 rally.

Rally for reproductive rights in Denver Supreme Court reversal of federal abortion protections draws protesters in droves

BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Ce 41 lebr Ye ati ar ng s

Horns honked and drivers waved in solidarity as thousands gathered

at the state Capitol in Denver on June 27. The crowd was there to rally in support of reproductive rights after a recent ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court in the case of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.

The Dobbs decision upheld a Mississippi state law banning abortion after 15 weeks. In doing so, it opened the door to the reversal of both Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 case establishing a constitutional right to abortion, and Planned Parenthood

v. Casey, a 1992 decision reaffirming that right.

Demonstrators of all ages and genders carried signs, chanted slogans and marched from the Capitol through parts of central Denver.

Police shut down roads including North Broadway to allow the peaceful crowd to demonstrate.

The event was the third protest around abortion access since the controversial Dobbs ruling was announced on June 24.

organization The Guttmacher Institute claims that at least 26 states are certain or likely to ban abortion in the wake of the reversal of Roe v. Wade. In Colorado, abortion will remain legal barring federal legislation or a change in state law.

Maryjane Chavez, who came to the Capitol with her daughter, said she’s worried the Supreme Court may soon target other individual liberty rights like same-sex marriage — widely held to be granted under the 14th amendment to the Constitution.

Some disassembly required CONIFER – Venturing out on the morning of June 8, he was distressed to discern the “hydraulic arm” neatly unbolted and completely detached from the heavy gate protecting his property. Investigating deputies noted gouges in the earth suggesting the gate crasher’s subsequent attempts to swing it open had met with stout resistance from the ground. As nothing in the yard or house appeared to be missing or misused, it was assumed the person or persons behind the abortive break-in had been scared off by motion-activated lights on the garage. Deputies advised him to install exterior cameras, and he was able to re-attach the hydraulic arm handily.

Dingers of destruction MORRISON – When deputies arrived at about 11:30 p.m., he escorted them directly outside onto his balcony and showed them the hole. It was a two-inch hole, and he said it had been driven straight through the siding of his second-story only minutes before. He said the hole couldn’t be repaired short of replacing the

entire panel, and he further said he knew exactly who put it there.

A couple of punk kids and their punk friends were having a wild party just across the way, and he’d deduced from the violent sounds echoing across the night that they’d been whacking rocks at his residence with an aluminum baseball bat. He demanded that officers bring down the swift hammer of justice on their little punk heads. Examining the complainant’s balcony and the ground beneath, deputies found no rocks or other likely projectiles.

Crashing the alleged party, they found the house dark and silent and the aforementioned punks fast abed.

Their mother said the lads hadn’t had anyone over to the house that evening and they’d been asleep for more than an hour. Turning back toward the complainant’s home, officers estimated the distance between themselves and the perforated panel to be something north of 300 yards – almost certainly too far for a whacked rock to land with any conviction. They told the complainant he might not have the hole story.

BOLO for Frank Azar EVERGREEN – Distributing self-promotional materials on the evening of June 10, his hustle turned into a hassle when two men in a “red golf cart” puttered up and dressed him down. The two men told him there had been “a lot of burglaries” in the neighbor recently, and that he “can’t be soliciting here” He told the two men he wasn’t a burglar and hadn’t seen a single “No Soliciting” sign anywhere in the area. The two men told him he had to leave on account of his reckless “speeding.” “That’s a lie,” he snapped. Growing frustrated at his persistent recusal refusal, the two men “ran up” and tried to “strong arm” him out of the neighborhood.

After a few tense moments, he got back in his vehicle and the two men puttered away. Contemplating the confrontation for a long while, he finally called JCSO, telling deputies he’d felt “fear for my safety” and showing them a cell phone photo of the impertinent pair. Deputies took a report and told him it’s usually best to call immediately when feeling “fear for my safety.”

Terror by Tonka EVERGREEN – Willy and Roscoe don’t get along, which is too bad seeing as how they’re next-door neighbors. When Willy saw Roscoe digging a hole on the morning of June 11, he “stopped on the road” to snap a picture of the project. Apparently camera shy, Roscoe proceeded to “chase” Willy “in a dump truck.”

During a pause in the pursuit, Roscoe leapt from the cab and approached Willy’s wheels bellowing “Get out (miserable fool) so I can kick your (attitude)!” Willy stayed put, so Roscoe “went back to what he was doing” and Willy called the cops. Contacted by deputies, Roscoe denied chasing or threatening, but freely admitted telling Willy to “stop blocking the (forejudged) easement!”

Since their ongoing disputes are already working their way through the civil courts, deputies advised both men to leave them there.

Sheriff’s Calls is intended as a humorous take on some of the incident call records of the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office for the mountain communities. Names and identifying details have been changed. All individuals are innocent until proven guilty.

Lucy has been in a boarding kennel for 6-weeks after she lost her foster home! Help EAPL get her out and into a forever home (bestest for her) or a foster home for loves and snuggles until she can find her forever home!

SPREAD THE WORD! HELP LUCY, PLEASE! Meet Miss Lucy! She is about 2yo birth date is estimated in June 2020, she needs to be active & have chew toys, walks, play fetch, etc. She is smart! She learns quickly. We are guessing she is a maybe Plott Hound with a sprinkling of Lab and a splash of Sharpei mix. She is 62lbs. She does well with children of all ages.

She likes to sleep in bed with her humans. She likes to be with her humans (baby to adult size). She does well with male dogs.

She gets so excited when you say the word "kids" it means the grandkids are coming over and she will run to the window to "LOOK" lol. She is doing amazing in boarding playgroups with dogs of both sexes and all sizes up to 25 dogs at a time!

No kitties for this girl – she can have a prey drive.
