used to establish a wastewater pilot and research center to test new technologies and treatment equipment to help bolster the system’s resilience to climate change and extreme weather events. The investments are expected to create 282 new jobs, according to a press release from the Environmental Protection Agency. The announcement generated praise from local and national Colorado leaders. “Englewood is leading the charge to modernize our water infrastructure,” Sen. John Hickenlooper said in a written a statement. “This investment will provide clean water, promote resiliency, and create jobs all while saving taxpayers money.” EPA Regional Administrator KC Becker, in a statement, said the agency’s loans are “helping western

The cost of housing has become an all-but-unavoidable issue for city officials in much of the Denver metro area, and Centennial is examining how local policy might fit into conversations about affordability. Centennial city officials recognize that the “strength and desirability of our neighborhoods is great,” Mayor Stephanie Piko said as part of her remarks during the annual State of the City address. “Many residents have greatly benefitted from rising home values, but the downside to the increasing cost of housing is how it can limit access for many young families and professionals to our community,” Piko said. In 2021, the city launched what it calls a “housing study” to better understand housing issues in Centennial, define housing needs and look at priorities for city policies related to housing, according to a fact sheet from the city. The city is “examining potential housing and development options

South Platte Renew to invest in water infrastructure, research BY ROBERT TANN RTANN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

South Platte Renew in Englewood, Colorado’s third-largest sewage treatment plant, will receive $22 million in federal loan money to pay for infrastructure upgrades, modernization of technology and facilities as well as new research initiatives. The plant, co-owned and operated by the cities of Littleton and Englewood, cleans about 20 million gallons of wastewater per day and services about 300,000 people in Arapahoe, Douglas and Jefferson counties.

It’s also been a crucial front line in the battle against COVID-19, collecting daily samples of sewage that serve as an indicator of how prevalent the virus may be in a given community. The City of Englewood, as part of its share of the plant’s funding, secured the multi-million dollar loan through the federal Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act. “It’s what we need to keep the South Platte River clean and sustain the water supply into the future,” said Sarah Stone, Englewood’s deputy director for business solutions. The money will allow the plant to replace outdated electrical and control systems to address aging infrastructure. Upgrades will see improvements to chemical and ultraviolet water treatment. Some of the funds will also be

Effort to ban sale of flavored tobacco, nicotine products fails State Senate committee rejects measure, moving issue back to local control BY JESSE PAUL AND SHANNON NAJMABADI THE COLORADO SUN

A heavily lobbied, bipartisan effort to ban the sale of flavored tobacco and nicotine products, including menthol cigarettes, in Colorado was rejected by a state Senate committee on May 10, punting the issue back to cities and counties. The Senate Appropriations Committee voted 5-2 to reject House Bill 1064, with Democratic Sens. Robert Rodriguez and Rachel Zenzinger joining the three Republicans on the committee in voting against the measure. The legislation, which was aimed at reducing teen tobacco and nicotine use, faced slim odds of becoming law due to opposition from Democratic Gov. Jared Polis, who said that he would prefer the issue to be regulated at the local level. The bill also was projected to siphon some $25 million annually from Polis’ fledgling free preschool program, a Polis campaign promise which is funded through taxes on tobacco and nicotine products. The demise of House Bill 1064 comes about 36 hours before Colorado’s 2022 legislative session ends.

It also comes after the Biden administration last month announced it would be trying to ban menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars. “Smoking in schools have been going on since before I was born,” Rodriguez said before voting “no” on the bill. “And I don’t know if this is going to stop that.” A number of cities and towns in Colorado have passed flavored nicotine and tobacco bans, but several mayors have requested state action because they say a patchwork of policies wouldn’t be effective. “It is not a prohibitive enough barrier if our youth are simply able to travel across Denver’s border to the nearest convenience store and obtain flavored tobacco products,” Denver Mayor Michael Hancock, who vetoed a flavored tobacco ban in the Mile High City last year, wrote in a letter explaining his thinking. State Rep. Kyle Mullica, a Federal Heights Democrat who was a prime sponsor of the bill, said the measure’s demise was “incredibly disappointing” and that he would continue to push for a ban on flavored tobacco and nicotine products. “We ran House Bill 1064 because we wanted to fight for the health of our communities and kids,” he said. “The science and data is on our side. This is an epidemic our state is facing.” He said the well-funded tobacco industry was, at least in part, responsible for the bill’s failure.

They had “business on the line,” he said. “But when we look at policy down here, I don’t know how we don’t put the health of our kids first.” Altria and another tobacco giant, Reynolds American, respectively spent $149,000 and $173,000 on lobbying in Colorado from July 2021 through the end of March. The national nonprofit Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, which was leading the charge to pass the bill, spent nearly $181,000 on lobbying through the end of March. It had 25 lobbyists and lobbying firms working on the measure. This story is from The Colorado Sun, a journalist-owned news outlet based in Denver and covering the state.

Village must step up until Colorado gets its act together

ay is Mental Health Awareness Month, and after the last two years, most of us are well aware of the state of our mental health. Coloradans statewide are struggling with mental health more than ever. A 2021 Colorado Health Access Survey revealed that 38% of Coloradans over the age of 16 experienced a decline in mental health such as anxiety, depression, or loneliness, as the result of COVID-19. At the same time, Mental Health America ranked Colorado dead last in the nation for access to care for adults with mental health needs. The combination of declining well-being and poor access to resources has our community facing a crisis from which we must not turn away. Mental Health Colorado has been deeply engaged in supporting the recommendations of the behavioral health task force convened by Gov. Jared Polis in 2019. Task force recommendations have resulted in a series of bills designed to fill gaps in services all over the state, most recently with the help of $450 million in federal

American Rescue Plan Act funding. This funding will enable us to build much-needed in-patient capacity — beds — for adults and youth. We will invest in recruiting and retaining our behavioral health workforce. We will take important steps Vincent Atchity toward decriminalizing mental health, better coordinating care and resources, and much more. These investments won’t solve all of Colorado’s problems, or solve anyone’s problems anytime soon, but they will eventually make a meaningful difference in the lives of many. In the meantime, how do we become more resourceful and resilient without contributing to the long wait lists for professional support? The scarcity of mental health care in our state leaves many of us to our own devices — as if this were an earlier era in history. In an age of heightened risk for suicide and harm-

ful substance use, we must prioritize access to care and services for those who are at greatest risk or most seriously ill. The rest of us will have to cultivate individual, peer-to-peer support for ourselves and those around us. We must remind one another to engage in practices that contribute to well-being. Be more proactive about reaching out to somebody who hasn’t been their usual self. Make inquiries. Offer companionship. Offer to help someone access resources — whether it be transportation, research, or caring communities. Earlier this year, Mental Health Colorado launched a campaign to surface the real-life ways people around Colorado care for themselves and find joy, strength, or peace. The “What’s Your Peace?” campaign is meant to get people thinking about the daily steps that bolster our mental well-being, to carve out time for them with more intention, and to expand our collective toolkit by sharing them with one another. We received “peaces” from all over the state. It was no surprise to hear

that hiking, walking, snowboarding, and fly-fishing bring many Coloradans peace. We also heard from knitters, bird-watchers, dog-snugglers, and home cooks about their self-care habits. They’re not competitive or performative — most of these moments never make it to Instagram. It’s the restorative or meditative nature of the activity itself that helps us keep our balance. If only we could all knit, hike, and fish our way to holistic well-being. But for many of us, the challenges run deeper. Rough days and months are still ahead. It will take years for Colorado’s new behavioral health legislation to take hold and begin to improve access to mental health care in our community. I call on family members, friends, teachers, hospital staff, first responders, and anyone who encounters someone in need to draw from — or continue to draw from — their well of kindness and humanity.

LOANS

According to a statement from Englewood Mayor Othoniel Sierra, South Platte Renew is the first in the state to use the federal loan, which was established in 2014, for infrastructure investment. “Not only does the WIFIA program provide the funds necessary to modernize our aging waste-

water infrastructure to be more resilient and protect and improve water quality in the South Platte River, it allows the city to delay repayment, saving citizens money,” Sierra said. The loan allows the city to make a 51% match, meaning it will now have more than $40 million for

future projects. According to Stone, this money will be spent over the next five to seven years, with the ability for the city to delay payments back to the federal government until 2031. Those payments will be made in increments over the next 30 years, Stone said.

Suspect arrested after police SWAT scene in Englewood BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Law enforcement personnel arrested a suspect who was barricaded in a home in south Englewood after a SWAT scene that lasted several hours, according to Englewood police. The suspect was being sought by the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office. A SWAT vehicle was stationed about halfway between Oxford and Nassau avenues on Bannock Street for hours the night of May 12. The voice of police personnel on a loudspeaker could be heard around 8 p.m. saying, “Englewood Police Department; pick up that phone, man,” and “We want to talk to you.” The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office Fugitive Unit had notified Englewood police that the unit was conducting surveillance on a wanted male with felony warrants, according to an Englewood police news release. Englewood’s SWAT team was activated just after 1 p.m. May 12 to assist the Jefferson sheriff’s office, according to Investigator Scot Allen, a spokesperson for Englewood police. At about 6 p.m., the suspect entered a residence in the 4000 block of South Bannock Street and barricaded himself inside, according to the news release. The SWAT Team

telling people in that area to shelter in place and stay in their homes, Allen said. Police also evacuated a few homes on that block of Bannock Street, Allen said. Asking a suspect to talk to authorities using a phone that police send over to the suspect is typical in SWAT negotiations, Allen said. Police believed the suspect was alone in the house, and it’s unclear whether the house is the suspect’s home, Allen said around 10 p.m. that night. Allen did not have details on what crime the suspect is alleged to have committed. The scene wasn’t believed to be a danger to the broader community, Allen said around 10 p.m. The suspect, identified as 29-year-

old Jordan Limon, was turned over to Jefferson County sheriff’s deputies, and he was to be incarcerated at the Jefferson County jail, the news release said. Several other Englewood police vehicles were parked at either end of that block of Bannock Street, and trucks from Denver Fire Department, which serves Englewood, were on scene as well, along with a Denver paramedic truck. The block was closed to traffic during the SWAT scene. Greenwood Village police vehicles were also at the scene. It’s typical for other law enforcement agencies to also respond in a SWAT situation, Allen said. Englewood police initially tweeted about the incident at about 6:30 p.m. May 12.

that can hopefully lower costs and increase opportunities for attainable housing in our community,” Piko said. At Centennial’s 16th annual State of the City event on May 12, the mayor highlighted the city’s unfolding effort to address housing affordability and discussed other high-profile issues and initiatives in the city. ‘The District’ at high cost so far One point of pride that city officials underlined is The District, the development formerly known as The Jones District, a 42-acre swath of land on Mineral Avenue just north of IKEA that is planned to include a mix of office, residential, retail and hotel spaces.

Mineral Ave., a one-bedroom unit had been listed at $1,655 per month, the Centennial Citizen reported in April 2021. Another one-bedroom model was listed at $1,870 per month as of that time. A one-bed, one-bath unit was listed at more than $2,100 as of May 17 this

Supporting local economy The mayor also highlighted the city’s Spark Centennial program, an effort “that is working on customer expansion, building engagement and ultimately increasing sales,” Piko said. As the shift in American consumerism toward preferring experiences rather than products or things has presented challenges for retail shopping centers, Centennial has responded with the Spark program. It’s more than just an effort to lend a hand to local shops — local governments depend on sales-tax revenue, and when the economy changes, cities find themselves hoping businesses can keep up. City officials kicked off the Spark Centennial program in 2019 to fund pop-up, or temporary, events. The program intended to bring the community together and call attention to shopping centers in the city, some of which have struggled with closed grocery stores and other shuttered retail shops. Another prong of the effort, the Spark Centennial Experience Accelerator program, provides mentorship and funding to “inspire business owners and entrepreneurs to reshape their business value by building meaningful customer connections through for-sale experiences,” the city has said in a news release. The city is looking at a “retail reinvestment strategy” to place its retail shopping centers at a “competitive advantage and attract the type of retail that supports and is supported by our community,” Piko said.

Park sees big renovation Centennial’s map includes a network of parks and trails maintained by multiple agencies — South Suburban Park and Recreation District, Arapahoe Park and Recreation District and Arapahoe County Open Spaces — along with some spaces maintained by the city itself. In cooperation with those partners, the city has been able to “provide our community with something it has always cherished,” Piko said, referring to parks and trails. The city has continued to work to expand its east-to-west trail system via the Centennial Link Trail, and coming soon is the north-south expansion of the Lone Tree Creek Trail, which will offer an “under Arapahoe Road” crossing opportunity and access to Cherry Creek State Park, Piko said. The city’s flagship park, Centennial Center Park along Arapahoe Road east of Peoria Street, is undergoing an additional $4.5 million investment that will provide a garden, open field, additional venue, restroom facility, and a parking and food truck court, according to Piko. The park sits near the Centennial Civic Center, the city hall, and is located at 13050 E. Peakview Ave. The city typically hosts annual summer events at the park, such as concerts, for the public.

Inflation hits hard

ecently, like many of you, my eyes popped when looking at the grand total after self-scanning a small number of groceries. How in the world I can spend $80 on a group of items that fit into one bag? FROM THE My 8-year-old son even said, “Wow, mom. How did you spend so much so EDITOR fast?” Me: “Inflation, honey. Inflation.” We are seeing no relief anywhere as prices on everything are going up. Getting gasoline last week, I didn’t event fill my tank up and spend over $50. Going out to dinner, which is becoming rarer, features little notes posted to menus apologizing for havThelma Grimes ing to raise prices but stressing they have no choice. In today’s economy, we are seeing no relief anywhere. The housing market has homes selling for well above what they are worth, groceries are becoming a pick and choose your treats kind of experience and getting gas just makes you worry about how high the price will be the next time you fill up. Even more worrisome than the prices is the supply chain issues. For those women with infants looking for formula right now – I cannot imagine the level of worry they are facing as shelves are bare and transparency on what is going on is low. I know I am blessed because we are getting by. We are managing to pay keep up with the cost of inflation. We are able to manage the gas prices. However, my concern is with some friends and family and people who are not able to keep up. At the current rate of inflation, families are seeing costs increase by nearly $300 per month. Labor department data has consumer prices exceeding 8% with no end in sight. The cost of living before inflation was already becoming unbearable. Now, families are having to budget for an added $300 per month. Rent and mortgage rates give no relief. In attending the annual Parker State of the Town event on May 12, guest speaker Patty Silverstein from Development Research Partners said rent rates continue to go up and that is likely to continue. The nation and world are stressed out, and trying to be optimistic as the dominoes fall has become a lot harder for many families just trying to stay afloat. In thinking about all the data pushed my way last week, I found myself asking — who is getting ahead in this country? It is no secret that the rich are getting richer. But when do the poor and the middle class just get ahead to where they do not have to stress about paying the added $1 for a gallon of milk? There is talk of increasing interest rates not once, not twice, but as Silverstein put it, maybe a third time. I can’t say I am overly optimistic that those steps are going to settle the dust of skyrocketing inflation. Like many, I do not see where our leaders have a clear plan to help families get some stability and my worry is not only will those families no longer be able to stay afloat, but they will continue to sink as the raft they are barely holding on to continues to deflate.

The outer you reflects the inner you

ave you ever been around someone in a group setting and suddenly they say something completely out of character or unexpected? And when they realize it, they say or WINNING ask something like, “Did my inside voice just come WORDS out?” Maybe we have all experienced a moment like that, and probably even have been the one to let our inside voice come out unexpectedly. Some of us do a really good job of controlling our words, feelings and actions when it comes to our ability Michael Norton to stay composed, especially when we may not necessarily agree with those around us. We have the ability to keep our outer selves restrained from saying what might really be on our heart and mind. And then there some of us who completely wear our hearts on our sleeve. We do not have a poker face, so we make our feelings known through what we do and what comes out of our mouth. Some might even say that those of us who fall into this category don’t have a filter, when the thought pops into our minds we immediately say or act upon what we feel in that moment. Both types, those who stay calm and can control what they say and feel, as well as those who wear their hearts on their sleeve, are easy enough to understand and recognize. Those who demonstrate restraint are usually very thoughtful and really consider their words wisely before just speaking. And those who don’t hide the way they feel are

more direct and to the point, and live life to its fullest with lots of emotion. Then there are those of us who think we are showing restraint and composure trying to hide our feelings, but our tonality, our expressions, and our body language give us away. Those of us in this group should never play poker. And there are a lot of us who fall into this category, we just don’t see ourselves this way, we think we are fooling others, when they can see clearly right through us. “We cannot consistently act in a way that is inconsistent with the way we see ourselves.” — Dr. Joyce Brothers A lot of how we see ourselves has to do with what we keep on the inside, and what has the potential to come out of us in moments of distress, or conflicts of any kind, and usually at the wrong time. If we are harboring feelings that are negative or angry, our outside self will reflect those emotions. We may be able to mask it for a little while, but sooner or later we will hold our tongue for so long, but then eventually our true inner feelings will be exposed. We all fall somewhere along the spectrum of the three examples mentioned above. And in the world we are living in today we need to feed our minds and our hearts with the words of hope and encouragement, loving kindness, abundance, gentleness, benevolence, generosity and goodness. When we feed our minds and hearts with a steady diet of the positive, our inner self will never betray our outside self. Should we say or do what we feel and believe? Yes. Should we make sure it is said or

Pay attention to tax law changes

ow that tax season is over, it is time to start planning for 2022. I know that everyone is probably tax fatigued by now, but we are FINANCIAL STRATEGIES already well into the second quarter of the year. Therefore, any changes that need to be made to impact your tax liability for this year, need to happen fast. are also Patricia Kummer There changes that affect Colorado residents to plan for. First let’s look at tax planning overall. Make sure if you needed to adjust your tax withholding on your paycheck, that you calculate the increase for the remaining pay periods left in 2022. This is also true if you need to increase your 401(k) contribution, the earlier the better. Next, plan if you will be able to itemize your deductions for this year. Do you have higher mort-

done with respect? Absolutely. For some of us, we know exactly where we are when it comes to displaying how we really feel. And for others, we only fool ourselves. The solution is that we say and do exactly what needs to be said or done, and to say it or do it with respect, kindness, and compassion. How about you? Are you staying composed? Do you wear your heart on your sleeve? Or do you have

gage interest, charitable deductions, or medical expenses? If you cannot itemize, think of other ways you can still give to charity and get the deduction while still taking the full standard deduction. Retirees who are taking their required minimum distributions are eligible to give directly to a charity from their IRA account and be taxed only on the amount you receive. Ask your advisor about setting up a Qualified Charitable Distribution or QCD, before you take this year’s distribution. You can still deduct up to $300 per tax filer ($600 for joint filers) of charitable donations on the front of the 1040 without itemizing. High wage earners may benefit from opening a donor-advised fund and bunching several years of charitable contributions into one year, hence being able to itemize. But Colorado residents beware: There is a new law that limits the amount you can itemize on your state income tax return. Even though you may be eli-

gible to receive the full deduction on your federal return, taxpayers who expect to have joint income over $400,000 will be limited to a $60,000 deduction on the Colorado form.¹ This is also a good time to review your potential investment income for this year. With current market volatility, you may consider tax loss harvesting on positions that no longer meet your goals in your portfolio. You can deduct 100% of your realized losses up to the amount of capital gains you incur plus another $3,000 per year against earned income. You can carry forward any unused losses to be used up in subsequent years. There are other changes in Colorado regarding the College Invest 529 Savings Plan for college education. In the past, taxpayers have been able to deduct the full amount of their 529 contribution against their state income tax liability. Starting in 2022, your deductions will be limited to $20,000 per taxpayer, for each beneficiary for single filers, and $30,000 for joint tax filers.²

Be aware that many of the programs put in place last year were forms of stimulus and have expired. There are no monthly stimulus checks, and this year the Child Tax Credit reverts back to $2,000 per child for 2022. Also, the enhanced Child Care and Dependent Credit and Earned Income Tax Credit have reverted back with the exception of minor inflation adjustments.³ Tax planning all year long may provide you with better options and a lower overall tax bill due next April. If you started a business or became a consultant this year, there are good tax savings strategies for you as well. With only seven months left in the year, early planning can provide optimum tax saving strategies. 1. Colorado House Bill 21-1311; 2. College Invest; 3.

the blind spot of maybe projecting what you are feeling on the inside without knowing it? I would love to hear your story at mnorton@xinnix.com, and when we can include a steady diet of the good, the pure, the powerful and the positive, our inside self and outside self will more than likely be in alignment, making this a better than good year.

Experts around Denver metro area weigh in on the popular sport BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

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. SEE FISHING, P15

FISHING

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

FROM PAGE 14

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 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

Rick Mikesell, fly fishing guide 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.

Lynne Collins takes over theater at the Arvada Center

ynne Collins has been announced as the Arvada Center’s new Artistic Director of Theatre, following the retirement of Rod A. Lansberry. Collins, the current Artistic Director of Plays, first joined the Arvada Center in 2016 and lead the growth of the center’s Black Box Theatre and its repertory company. “Lynne is a tremendously talented artist and a fierce advocate for inclusion in the arts,” said Arvada Center President and CEO, Philip Sneed. “Her dedication to the Arvada Center and the entire Denver theatre community alongside her innovative artistic vision make her the ideal choice to lead our theatre program into the next chapter on our journey.” We spoke to Collins about her new role and what comes next. Interview edited for clarity and brevity. Tell me about becoming the new Artistic Director of Theatre? We had some internal meetings about what to do now and where we’re heading. After talking it through it became clear we couldn’t ponder for too long with the season starting soon. They came to me and I said okay. I know the place well and have all the information and I’m also looking toward the end of my career, which means I’m in a nice transitional

place as a leader. What we need to do is rethink everything - there are lots of questions about how we do the work as a theater. I want to do great work while here and be the leader for the next phase of the Clarke Reader Arvada Center. Where do you see theater at the Arvada Center now? We’re still in recovery from COVID and next year will probably still be a recovery year. And that starts to present a lot of questions we don’t have answers to yet. We don’t know if this is a permanent change yet - will people’s comfort zone in an enclosed space going to change in the long term? And how do you plan for that? There are more questions than answers right now, and while we know what the questions are, we don’t know how to address them. What are you looking forward to in the new season? I’m really excited about directing “Into the Woods” - I’ve never done a musical at the Arvada Center, so that’s exciting. I’m generally excited about how to make this transition - there’s a lot of intuitional knowledge here at the Arvada Center, which is really

COMING ATTRACTIONS

lucky for me. What do you want the Arvada community to know about your goals at the theater? People won’t see a big change this coming season but stay tuned for the season after. It might look a little different. The gift of a long-term leader is continuity, and the gift of change is we can look at how we do things and ask if that’s what we should or want to do. It opens a lot of possibility. Meeting at the corner of ‘The Holly’ KGNU, a local volunteer-powered radio station, will be hosting a Community Conversation with Julian Rubenstein, author of “The Holly: Five Bullets, One Gun, and the Struggle to Save an American Neighborhood” at 6 p.m. on Saturday, May 21 at The Buell Media Center, 2101 Arapahoe St. in Denver.

Look — up in the sky! Colorado offers dark areas for summer stargazing BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

On a summer night long ago, we happened to be at the top of Independence Pass at midnight, after a gully-washer soaked our tent and sleeping bags at Maroon

Bells Campground and it became necessary to load sleepy kids in the car and head home. The sky was absolutely dazzling and we stood there for a long time, just gobsmacked! When I opened the new edition of 5280 magazine and saw a story about “Stars Bright” by Jessica Larusso, I was moved to encourage our readers to seek out a similar experience with families this summer.

Several of my nature-oriented magazines have focused on seeking out the dark sky experience as a travel trend and this story is clear and helpful, listing Dark Sky Parks and Communities. Kids will enjoy having their own sky maps and learn a pleasurable skill that lasts a lifetime. Pack the guide books, binoculars and cameras with the camping equipment and look for a dark hiking spot.

Westcliffe and Silver Cliff in southern Colorado make up Colorado’s first certified International Dark Sky Community, which involves shielded light fixtures in limited numbers, with warm light bulbs that won’t glare. The Smokey Jack Observatory there is also available to visitors. An active nonprofit organization is called Dark Skies of the Wet SEE SKY, P19

Since this is a growing trend, reservations are probably in order. There are currently 196 Dark Sky Places in the world and Colorado claims 15 of them. In addition to the communities above, There are 10 Dark Sky Parks: Hovenweep National Monument; Black Canyon of the Gunnison; Dinosaur National Monument; Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve; Jackson Area as one explores ...

Photographers are warned that there are limitations on camera

equipment, such as flashes, that would disturb area wildlife, so investigate the rules and regulations. Travelers speculate over archaeological sites and possible connections to the night skies, where often interpretations are questioned. I personally think learning about a variety of myths and legends is highly desirable for visitors of all ages. Families may want to research star-related events in communities they plan to visit this summer. Crestone will celebrate the second anniversary of its Experience the Night Festival this weekend, for example, with performance artists, readings and more... Music, food and storytelling may be involved, with a distinctive flair at each location. In September, the 12-year-old Black Canyon Astronomy Festival and the Mesa Verde Dark Sky Festival are planned. Park Point, the highest spot in Mesa Verde, is newly open after dark.

Two Littleton officers sustain minor injuries in car-chase incident Suspect eludes police on foot after vehicle gives out STAFF REPORT

Littleton police are seeking a suspect who fled after a car chase through downtown Littleton, in an incident that left two officers with minor injuries early May 10. As of press time, the officers were reported to be doing well, and the suspect who eluded police was still being sought in an open investigation. At 3:33 a.m. on May 10, Littleton police responded to an attemptedtheft call at Carmax in the 5800 block of South Broadway. Officers were told that video surveillance showed two people trying to steal lockboxes off vehicles that contained keys for the cars. When officers arrived at 3:38 p.m., the suspects tried to hide between the cars, police said. A female suspect, who was identified as 24-yearold Asianna Buck Elk Thunder, was detained on the scene, according to police. Police say a male suspect got into a Kia Optima, which was later determined to be stolen out of Denver, and drove off the Carmax lot. The Kia then struck an officer in a patrol car on Orchard Road just east of Broadway causing his airbag to go off according to Littleton Police Department spokesperson Sheera

Poelman. Other officers at the scene then saw the Kia traveling westbound on West Littleton Boulevard. Poelman said department protocol is usually to not pursue but, given the unknown status of the officer who was struck in his car, officers decided to chase the suspect in their vehicles. The chase led to one officer losing control of his vehicle and colliding with a concrete wall by the Melting Pot at the end of West Main St., which Poelman said also led to “very minor injuries.” Once the officer who was struck on Orchard was determined to be in a stable condition, the chase was called off at 3:45 p.m. The car the suspect was driving continued through the area and struck a curb-line at the intersection of South Santa Fe Drive and West Main Street. The car, having been in two significant crashes, was no longer operational and the suspect fled the scene on foot, police said. Both injured officers were admitted to a local hospital that day, Poleman said, but have since been released. The suspect who had been detained on scene, Buck Elk Thunder, was jailed on a previous felony warrant in an aggravated motor vehicle theft case, and was cited on suspicion of false reporting of identifying information to law enforcement authorities, obstructing a peace

Clothing boutique continues to grow Rooted Boutique opened by best friends BY RACHEL LORENZ SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Longtime business partners and first-time mothers Sara Mancuso and Tayler Streeter are taking multitasking to a new level in 2022, but it’s all part of the plan. Owners of White Oak and Rooted, a clothing boutique in Littleton, both women had babies within the last year and are leaning on one another more than ever. “It’s so nice to have each other,” Mancuso said. Mancuso and Streeter met while employed at a bridal store two years before going into business together. That’s where they developed a strong working relationship, Streeter said. The co-workers and best friends opened a shop, then called Rooted Boutique, on Alamo Avenue in 2016 with the aim of providing reasonably priced casualwear for women. They added clothing and accessories for special occasions — think prom, pageants and weddings — later in that first year of business because “people need beautiful dresses to wear that aren’t necessarily going to break the bank,” Streeter said. The bulk of the formalwear they carry is priced in the $200 to $350 range, although there are some pieces that run higher. The majority of the casual clothing is $100 per piece or less.

“We want really cute, fun things that you can’t find other places,” Streeter said. “That are unique, but things that aren’t going to go out of style in the next month or two.” The pair relies on intuition, industry knowledge and paying attention to customers to get the right items in their store. “You’re listening to what they’re looking for and the way they like things to fit and what major events they have coming up in their lives,” Streeter said. After six years and two moves, White Oak and Rooted is now at 2565 W. Main St. The store recently started selling baby items in addition to women’s clothing, and it’s not unusual for Streeter or Mancuso to bring an infant into work. “We are so lucky,” Streeter told Colorado Community Media over the cooing sounds of her son. “We’ve got such a great staff, and we’ve had the flexibility to bring the babies when they’re this age.” When the boutique first opened, Streeter and Mancuso worked there together everyday. But over the years, they’ve been able to add employees which gives them the opportunity to work from home a couple of days a week and even take some time off. “We’re only here one to two days a week physically, but at home we’re almost always on our computers most of the day,” Streeter said. There’s clothes to order, reports to run, research to be done. In addition to their Main Street shop, they also maintain an online

store at www.whiteoakandrooted.com and sell their casualwear at The Emporium in Castle Rock. While the twosome is obviously happy to have a great month or a great year, success is more than numbers, Mancuso said. She finds it rewarding to see customers return to the boutique to shop for the various events in their lives. Plus the ability to run a business they love as well as have time to be with their respective families is valuable, Streeter. When they first opened,

achieving that kind of freedom was the goal. “We put in so much time and work early on,” Streeter said, “so we could create this life.”

SPORTS Regis boys win team’s 23rd state title

Cherry Creek’s Eck takes gold in diving BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Cherry Creek got off to a fast start during the finals of the Class 5A boys swimming championships on May 14. The event was hedl at the Veterans Memorial Aquatic Center in Thornton. However, the Bruins could not compete against the depth and swimmers that Regis Jesuit as competition continued throughout the day. Regis won the school’s 23rd state swimming title. Regis finished with 467 points while defending state champion, Cherry Creek, placed second with 403 points. Other South Metro competed in the championship tournament, including Heritage taking fifth place, Highlands Ranch placed 12th, Douglas County 18th, Arapahoe 22nd, Ponderosa 24th and Valor Christian 26th. Cherry Creek hoped to make an attempt to catch Regis during the morning diving finals. Bruins senior Conrad Eck won the event with 596 points. Arapahoe’s Collier Dyer placed second with 589.5 points.

ished 12th. “It was slightly a surprise,” said Eck, who was seeded fourth. “I knew that I could get a better score at state. The two divers that were second and fourth were on my club team and I knew it was going to be really close. I knew I was going to be happy however it finished. “It feels great to win. I felt great. I dove well. It was a really hard meet but in the end it worked out well. We got 69 points with me and the three other divers. It helped.” But not enough as the Raiders had too many swimmers and talent in the afternoon finals.

Cherry Creek held 177-140 edge over Regis after diving but won only one race afterwards. The Bruins 200-meter medley relay team of Cade Martin, Carson Morris, Liam Bekerman and Jason Fan won with a time of 1:30.77, which was the first race of the late afternoon finals. Then, Regis starting racking up the points the rest of the meet, finishing with Mark Dugan, Roman Krauss, Hawkins Wendt and Gio Aguirre capturing the 400-meter freestyle relay. The relay team finished the race in 3 minutes, 04.11 seconds.

Regis coach Nick Frasersmith was named the 2022 Coach of the Year. Aquirre also second in the 100-meter freestyle, an event he won last season. Roman Krauss also took second in the 500-meter freestyle. Heritage’s Oliver Mitchell won the state title in the 100-meter breaststroke with a time of 55.76 seconds. Mason Kajfosz, of Highlands Ranch, placed third in the 200-meter freestyle. Peter Weinstein, of Heritage, took third in the 500-meter freestyle.

It took some work but Cherry Creek captured its 28th girls state tennis championship on May 14 at the Gates Tennis Center in Denver. The Bruins went into the final morning of playback and championship matches of the three-day tournament with a slim 73-66 lead over Fairview. The Bruins advanced two singles and four doubles teams into the finals and four of those six title matches were against Fairview. There was a combined 12 team points available in those matches. Cherry Creek, the defending state champions, won three of the four head-to-head matches with Fairview and wound up collecting 17 points on the final day compared to three for the Knights.

how tight the doubles matches we had and the three matches we won against Fairview. Those were big points.” Creek’s defending No. 2 singles champion Lorena Cedeno completed a 14-0 season with a 6-3, 6-1 state championship win over Fairview’s Shelia Laird. “I was nervous at first because the match was so important for my team,”said Cedeno. “Then I was having fun and felt so blessed. This match was better than the one last year. I was more confident and playing better.” Jiselle Boker, the Bruins No. 3 singles player, rallied in the second set and downed Fairview’s Ellie Middleton 6-3, 7-5. “Fairview was our competition last year and this year too,” said Boker. “I played consistent. I was down 5-4 in the second set. It feels great to be a state champion. I’m excited.” Creek’s No. 1 doubles team of Vivienne Bersin and Victoria Moldovan outlasted Fairview’s Lizzy Roth and Virginia Gomulka in the title match, 6-3, 2-6, 7-6. The Knights’ lone victory over the Bruins came in the No. 2 doubles matchup when Jane Roth and Maya Brakhage downed Creek’s Farrah Bendell and Sayeesha Garud 1-6, 6-3, 6-4. Creek’s No. 3 doubles duo of Riley Loehr andSabrina Shama won a close straight set championship match and the No. 4 doubles team of Kate Erickson and Zoey Hao also claimed the state title. Jacqueline Pearsall, Creek’s No. 1 singles player, won the third place match in three sets “I’ve coached for 16 seasons and we’ve got 14 state titles, which is amazing to think about,” said Jacob. “This one now makes me happy because of what the new players (six) did. That’s half of my team was new and the nerves and everything they handled well.” Combined with the 44 state titles that the Cherry Creek boys team has won, that gives the Greenwood Village school 82 state tennis championships. Other South Metro players who finished high included Marian Hayes
