Douglas County car thefts keep law enforcement busy Castle Rock is outlier in state trends

BY MCKENNA HARFORD MHARFORD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Stolen cars have recently become one of Douglas County law enforcement’s top priorities as thefts increase across the entire metro area with Castle Rock serving as the

single exception.

Data from the Colorado Auto Theft Prevention Authority Metropolitan Auto Theft Task Force (C-MATT) shows car thefts up 20% in Douglas County between 2021 and 2020, while the metro area saw a 39% increase as a whole.

Though Douglas County represents only 623 stolen cars out of the 27,409 metro area thefts, local law enforcement is reporting car theft is the top crime officers investigate.

Of the 29 reporting agencies in CMATT’s annual report, Castle Rock was the only municipality or county to see a decrease in the number of thefts in 2021 compared to 2020 at a rate of 25%.

Cmr. Jason Lyons, of the Castle Rock Police Department, credited the difference to three main tactics, including installing a new license plate reading system, called FLOCK, at various places throughout the town.

Working to address homelessness

Some Douglas County families experiencing homelessness will soon have access to a new resource after the county received $1 million in federal funding to participate in the GOALS facility in nearby Arapahoe County.

Douglas County commissioners participated in a roundtable with Congressman Jason Crow April 21 at the facility to discuss the funding for the residential program, which seeks to help unhoused families become financially independent.

Crow secured the $1 million in funding as part of his Community Funding Projects.

“What we’re seeing with unhoused families is this is a regional issue, boundaries and jurisdictions don’t determine people’s needs,” Crow said. “The resulting trend is you’re SEE GOALS, P7

Like license plate readers installed on police cars, the FLOCK system scans license plates that pass the stationary reader, compares it to a national database and alerts officers when a plate is reported stolen or connected to a crime, warrant or missing person. ] Lyons estimated officers receive several alerts on a daily basis they follow up on.

Prosecutor’s office honors victim advocates

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In Parker on April 19, prosecutors, law enforcement and politicians were all in agreement. That rare feat was accomplished because of what they were all there to do — honor the people who work every day to protect the rights of victims of crime.

As part of National Crime Victims’ Rights Week, the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office hosted a special awards ceremony to honor those who have gone above and beyond to help victims of crime in Arapahoe, Douglas, Elbert and Lincoln counties.

Along with the honorees for the evening, council members and commissioners from Centennial, Parker and Douglas and Arapahoe counties were in attendance.

In his opening statements, District Attorney John Kellner said he is proud of the way treating victims has evolved over the years. When a victim of a crime is dealing with their worst day, Kellner said, dedicated professionals in the 18th Judicial District are there to see them through it.

“When I think about the importance of this week, and what it means to me as a prosecutor, I think it is a time to reflect on the people behind the numbers. It is a time to think about the communities that we serve as prosecutors and law enforcement. It makes me think about how far we have come.”

Early in his career as a prosecutor in the Marine Corps, Kellner said there was not a lot of thought about how victims were treated, saying at one time they were more of an “afterthought.”

While that brings a sense of shame in thinking about it, Kellner said, the hard work of many has brought about “tremendous change.”

Kellner said there is more advocating at the state level to change laws, there are more community groups with the sole purpose of helping victims, and there are lots of changes in how communities go about policing and helping people experiencing the “worst days of their lives.”

Kellner said the theme in honoring Victims’ Rights Week this year is “Rights, Access, Equity for all Victims.”

In the 18th Judicial District over the last year, Kellner said, they recovered more than $43,000 in restitution for victims. In 2021, the 18th Judicial District sent out 11,000 communications

All of the night’s honorees come together to celebrate their work in protecting victims of crime.

to victims to let them know they were available to help them. In 2021, the Victims’ Compensation Program collected more than $1 million, Kellner said.

As presenters entered the stage to give awards, many of the stories shared throughout the evening were heartbreaking but had the happiest ending possible — the guilty behind bars.

In presenting the Career Investigator Award, 18th Judicial District Chief Investigator Mike Dickson said the honoree, Scott Stephens, has gone above and beyond for victims, especially children. In reviving one case, Dickson said, Stephens conducted a new round of interviews, found more victims and was able to secure a conviction in a case involving children.

In announcing the winner for the Outstanding Law Enforcement Advocate Award, Parker Detective Shannon Brukbacher said she could not think of anyone more deserving than Amanda Hollander, who works with the Parker Police Department.

‘Reduce, Reuse, Rethink’: A Colorado teen’s approach to recycling

BY LINDSEY FORD ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

“I think especially with young people, we have innovative ideas for the future,” said Maya Ayres. “We have, like, a fresh look on things.”

In December of last year, Ayres, a 14-year-old Douglas County High School student, presented a TED talk at the TEDxCherryCreek event. Her informative speech was about the importance of recycling.

Her slogan was “Reduce. Reuse.

Rethink,” a spin-off of the popular mantra “reduce, reuse, recycle.”

Just because something is technically recyclable does not mean that recycling it is always the best option, Ayres explained. The energy used to recycle certain plastics can be more than the energy saved.

“I believe the real issue of plastic pollution isn’t the manufacturing of it, but it is that humans do not know how to properly dispose of that plastic we create for ourselves,” Ayres said in her TED talk, which you can watch here. “That is the issue.

And we know this because plastic is ending up everywhere around us.

Recycling isn’t working nearly as well as it should be.”

In 2018, Americans generated more than 35 million tons of plastics — about six times the weight of the Pyramid of Giza — yet less than nine percent of that plastic was recycled, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.

Many people, Ayres continued, are not familiar with the descriptions written on the back of plastic items that detail the item’s thickness and recyclability. Because of the complexities of recycling labeling, Ayres said there is often an “out of sight, out of mind” mindset where once someone throws a paper plate or cardboard cup in a recycling bin, they forget about it. This phenomenon is known as “wish-cycling,” in which someone disposes of an item in the hopes that it will be recycled.

The University of Colorado says wish-cycling can lead to unrecyclable materials being mixed with recyclable materials, which can

damage machines that are difficult and dangerous to fix, as well as “force otherwise usable material to the landfill.”

The inspiration behind Ayres’ journey to inform her community and the world about recycling started when she was in the fifth grade. Ayres and her classmates participated in a “bluebird experiment” project. As part of the project, Ayres’ class walked around their neighborhood and observed local bluebirds, whose habitats have been threatened by development in recent years. During the experiment, she noticed that there was plastic woven into the birds’ nests.

It was the first time Ayres realized how harmful plastic waste could be.

“That was really tough to see because, I mean, no one feels good when they know that they are directly harming another living being. So that’s when I really started to think about, ‘OK well, that piece of plastic in their nest could have been mine,’” Ayres recalled. “And so, when you are directly relating it to yourself, it really made me reflect about how I treat my surroundings and what causes those issues like that in our world.”

Something Ayres found interesting about her experience, from the bluebird project to the TED talk, was how it related to a concept she learned from her Jewish upbringing: at religious school, Ayres learned of the phrase “Tikkun Olam,” meaning “repair the world.”

“For me I really started to reflect this concept because I wanted to find what fulfills me, and so repairing the world and finding ways to help other people is what makes me happy,” she said.

A humble Ayres also expressed that many of her peers have congratulated her on her TED talk, but she does not want people to think of her, as she said, “on a different level” than them. She hopes that expressing herself encourages other young people to become passionate about something and share their voice, no matter the size of their platform.

‘For me I really started to reflect this concept because I wanted to find what fulfills me.’

Brukbacher focused on Hollander’s work in a stalker case where a man was relentless in pursuing his female victim.

Brukbacher said Hollander worked to keep the victim updated and educated on her rights.

Brukbacher said even after the man was let out of prison, he returned to keep stalking his victim.

However, because of all the prep work to prepare the victim on what to do in case he reappeared, the victim was ready, and the suspect has again been arrested.

Hollander, who has been with the department for four years, has worked to improve response and services to victims of crime, Brukbacher said.

Wrecks rising in Douglas County, Highlands Ranch Sheriff blames increase on distracted driving

BY MCKENNA HARFORD MHARFORD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Car wrecks in Douglas County are trending up so far this year compared to the same time last year with a cluster of Highlands Ranch intersections seeing a majority of the crashes.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office reports 394 wrecks so far in 2022, which is up 17% over the same time last year.

Injury crashes are up 9%, with two fatal wrecks since January.

Sheriff Tony Spurlock said car crashes are the third most common kind of incident Douglas County officers respond to on a regular basis.

“We have a lot of inexperienced drivers, people not paying attention and also people in a hurry, failing to comply with the lights or turning right on red,” he said of the wrecks. “If you put your foot on the gas to go faster when you see the light turn yellow, you’re doing something wrong.”

that record the most crashes, nine are in Highlands Ranch.

According to the sheriff’s department, the intersections include: • Lincoln Avenue and Chambers Road • Quebec Street and University Boulevard • University Boulevard and Wildcat Reserve Parkway • University Boulevard and Highlands Ranch Parkway • Quebec Street and Business Center • Quebec Street and County

Line Road; University Boulevard and Cresthill Lane • Wildcat Reserve Parkway and Fairview Parkway • Highlands Ranch Parkway and Broadway • Highlands Ranch Parkway and Lucent Boulevard “You’ll see a common theme, which is that (the intersections) are right around our big high schools,” Spurlock said.

“They’re major, major intersections with six lanes or more.

Quite frankly, people are just not paying attention.”

ready for JUNE 10-12, 2022

|

In 2021, the nine Highlands Ranch intersections accounted for 145 crashes, which is 9% of the year’s 1,658 crashes investigated by the DCSO. Spurlock noted that about 80% of the wrecks are non-injury, including rear-ends, turning crashes and a few head-on incidents.

“A lot of the time there’s a lot of automobile damage, but minimal or low injury,” he said.

Signage is up at a few of the intersections to warn drivers it’s a high crash area and Spurlock hopes continue to increase awareness.

DCSO also works with local police departments and the Colorado State Patrol to monitor and enforce road regulations, but Spurlock said it is not a perfect solution.

“Strict enforcement is only good as long as (officers) are there, the second we leave, violations continue to go back up again,” he said.

In reality, Spurlock said wrecks are best deterred by drivers being aware of their surroundings and following speed limits and road signs.

“Put your phone down, pay attention to what’s going on, stop having conversations and get through the intersection safely.”

The Arapahoe Community College Foundation enjoyed a “A Night In Monte Carlo” during the annual fundraising event held at the Ceilo at Castle Pines.

In welcoming guests to the event, it was stressed that the foundation works to help students pay tuition and relieve economic stress.

Putting it simply, Foundation Chair John Trujillo said, “We are here for scholarships, and that is important.”

With the 2022 theme of “Climb Together,” Trujillo said it is always enjoyable to watch students thrive, interact and climb together.

Outgoing Chair Rhonda Lord also addressed the audience, relaying the importance of donating to a foundation that works every year to help students pay for

college.

Support for the foundation means paying a student’s way to become an “economic force” in the region, Lord said.

“We are so honored to have you here to invest in students — helping to not only climb mountains but to move mountains,” she said.

A single award was given during the event, which was to honor the Arapahoe Community College Alumni of the Year.

In presenting the award, ACC Foundation Executive Director Courtney Loehfelm said Rachel Lee is an ACC graduate and successful member of the community.

Lee said her acceptance speech was inspired by her daughter.

“I am humbled to be awarded this great honor from the college I attended,” she said. “I am a proud graduate of ACC. I am proud to put it on my resume.”

Funds were raised through a silent auction of a variety of donated goods and through a live cash auction where guests gave between $100 and $2,000 to support student scholarships.

“Our officers will respond to the general area (of the specific license plate camera) and be on the lookout for that vehicle,” he explained. “We’re getting suspects arrested and vehicles recovered because we’re able to respond to an area in real time after being notified of a stolen car.”

With the real-time data, Lyons said officers are having more success arresting a person in connection with the theft as opposed to only recovering the stolen car.

C-MATT data shows Castle Rock police recovered 79% of stolen cars within 30 days, which aligns with other Douglas County law enforcement recovery rates.

The C-MATT report doesn’t break down arrests by jurisdiction, but reports a total of 246 arrests in 2021 from the 29 agencies included in the report.

“Many of those bad guys, we’re catching - we’ve recovered 1,000 grams of drugs, eight weapons, we’ve arrested people on 85 warrants, so it’s hugely successful,” Lyons said. “If someone is not actively apprehended while in possession of that motor vehicle and it gets dumped and then recovered later, it’s really hard to tie a person to that vehicle.”

Currently, Castle Rock is the only department in Douglas County to be using the FLOCK system, which was first installed in May 2021. Lyons said he expects the

department will formally review the success of FLOCK after the one-year mark.

“It’s certainly not the only piece of the puzzle, but it is timely the fact that we deployed this technology and are seeing double-digit reductions in crime,” he said.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, Lone Tree Police Department and Parker Police Department all use license plate readers in patrol cars, though each department said it was evaluating whether to invest in the FLOCK system.

Lone Tree currently has two patrol cars equipped with license plate readers, while Parker police just doubled their equipped patrol

cars from two to four because of the uptick in thefts, said Josh Hans, the public information officer for the Parker Police Department.

“We wanted to be able to increase the coverage and be able to have one out on the road at all times,” Hans said.

With the added help of the license plate reading technology, every department noted that sharing information and partnering with other agencies is another crucial piece to successfully investigating car thefts.

Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock said a majority of stolen cars are used to commit other crimes, oftentimes in other communities. Hans said cars recovered in Parker frequently have illegal drugs in them.

The sheriff’s office estimates about half of the recovered cars are stolen from outside their jurisdiction and cars taken from Douglas County are equally likely to be found elsewhere.

“What we see is people steal cars from the Denver metro area and bring them down here to use the car in a crime and then steal a car from here to go back up to the Denevr area,” he said.

Castle Rock, Lone Tree and Parker likewise see thefts as a regional problem.

Sharing stolen car information among agencies not only increases the number of eyes on the lookout, Spurlock said, but also helps police identify and saturate

areas of concern.

In Parker, Hans said those areas tend to be in large retail parking lots and fitness centers.

“We are increasing our patrols in those lots so we’re able to find the vehicles when the person is in them or in the store and we can get them when they come out,” he said.

The last key law enforcement cited in solving thefts is community help. As Castle Rock has seen by the implementation of FLOCK , the sooner officers are made aware of a car being stolen or a suspicious incident, the more likely they are to recover the car or make an arrest.

“The community acts as a force multiplier, our eyes and ears when we aren’t there,” Lyons, said.

Spurlock encouraged people to report stolen cars right away with the license plate number so information can be spread to police.

Similarly, Lone Tree Police Department Cmr. David Brown said reports of abandoned vehicles and people checking car doors have helped his department’s investigations.

“To be successful at solving any crime, you have to have strong partnerships with your community members and business partners,” Brown said.

A large majority of stolen cars are crimes of opportunity, Spurlock explained, citing unlocked doors, people leaving keys in the car and leaving the car running as common factors in thefts.

“We’ve seen people walk right past a car that they try to open up and it’s locked, they move on to the next one,” he said.

Spurlock, Brown and Lyons pointed to lower accountability for property crimes, which allows for repeat offenders, as one factor that may be contributing to the recent rise in car thefts.

Parker’s Hans also noted the pandemic and concurrent economic downturn seemed to also be a factor, though Spurlock disagreed.

“Our legislature has put Colorado in harm’s way and they have reduced the accountability and responsibility for criminals,” he said.

Regardless of the causes though, all of the law enforcement agencies encouraged people to remember to lock their cars and protect their valuables.

seeing counties and cities starting to work with each other.”

The Generational Opportunities and Achievement long-term success program, or GOALS, is a four-tonine-month residential program for unhoused families. The program seeks to serve two generations within these families by teaching skills and resources to children and adults to help them become selfreliant.

This funding will allow the facility, located east of Cherry Creek State Park in Aurora, to renovate one of their buildings so it can house up to five families from Douglas County. Renovations are expected to begin in a few months with a goal of accepting families in 2023.

The new program is just one element of Douglas County’s plan to address homelessness in the community, said Commissioner Abe Laydon.

“The approach that Douglas County has is a little bit unique in that we have those 4c’s,” Laydon said. “It’s compassion, code enforcement, community services and communications.”

Douglas County law enforcement agencies, nonprofits and governments have said they’re starting to see an increase in homelessness throughout the region. This year, the county formed a Homeless Initiative to research the issue and to create a plan to address it.

Now, the county is in the process of creating an outreach team to respond in instances where people experiencing homelessness appear to be in crisis, Laydon said.

The county is also looking at new enforcement policies for things like camping and panhandling in medians.

Many of those steps can’t occur until the county finds a facility to shelter unhoused people, another step the county is looking into, he said.

The new initiatives will also likely be paired with new signage as part of a public education campaign and added transportation capabilities specifically for the unhoused.

The GOALS facility, which hopes to eventually house a total of about 24 families, includes a shared kitchen, laundry and living room to create a community.

The GOALS building that will soon undergo renovations to house up to five unhoused Douglas County families.

“We work very closely with the families to develop those plans,” said Scott Shields, Chief Executive Officer of Family Tree.

They offer programs such as early childhood education, adult education, employment training, classes in finance and parenting, substance abuse peer groups and others.

DougCo’s human resources manager Dan Makelky first toured the facility during the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, he said.

“I was so impressed by the programming here,” he said. “Knowing that we didn’t have any of these types of services within Douglas County and as we start to build our response to families and individuals who are homeless in Douglas County we thought providing a resource for families would be really important.”

Then, he brought Laydon.

“The epiphany was that it wasn’t just a housing-only model, it was whole-person care,” Laydon said.

Jamie Rife, executive director for the Metro Denver Homeless Coalition, said during the roundtable that this facility is the perfect example of multiple communities working together.

“We are dealing with an incred-

ibly complex problem called homelessness. And the reality is for a long time we tried to do a lot of that in isolation and the truth is none of us can solve homelessness alone,” she said.

While the number of families the program can help is limited, Crowe

said he believes every little bit of help makes an impact.

“You talk to one of these families, you meet the children and it matters to them,” he said. “Every person matters and you have to do everything you can to help every person.”

“We were screaming and jumping up and down,” she said, adding the coffee customers joined in the excitement as well. “It was really, really cool.”

The scholarship — which provides up to $25,000 per year to those selected — not only means she was selected from 2,000 other students for the prestigious award, but it also means she could attend her dream college without taking out any loans.

“For me and my family, that seems unreal to have such a cool college experience and not have to worry about the financial piece of it,” Gromer said.

The Parker resident is still waiting to find out where she will enroll this fall but she hopes to be on the cheer squad for Grand Canyon University in Arizona. If not, she will attend Auburn University in Alabama.

Throughout her time at Chaparral High School, 18-year-old Gromer has filled her days with extracurriculars including cheerleading, serving as an executive of the National Honor Society and is a member of student government. Last year, she served as the junior class president.

This year she is the president for the whole student body.

Since her freshman year, Gromer has participated in organizing Wish Week, which is in coordination with the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Wish Week is about local students working to raise money to grant wishes made by children with critical illness.

This year, Gromer served on the 6-student team that organized all the events, rasing enough to grant 17 wishes.

Jade Gromer, a student at Chaparral High School, is hoping to be a cheerleader at Grand COURTESY OF VANESSARAE_PHOTOGRAPHY Canyon University this fall.

“Those are the happiest weeks of my high school experience,” Gromer said. “It’s one week of the year where nobody is thinking about themselves, they’re just enjoying supporting someone who went through or is going through a really hard experience.”

Outside of school, Gromer has her job as a manager at Dutch Bros Coffee and her volunteer position at the neonatal intensive care unit at Sky Ridge Hospital. Romer has clocked in about 300 hours at the hospital, checking patients in and assisting families in the Ronald McDonald Family Room.

“What gets me out of bed in the morning is waking up and thinking that this day could be absolutely

extraordinary,” she said. “I’m just wanting to grow and learn and continue to be a better person.”

Every year, Daniels Scholars are selected from Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming. The program aims to seek out scholars who demonstrate strength of character, leadership potential, commitment to serving their communities, academic performance or promise, well-rounded personality and emotional maturity and stability.

Once chosen, scholars have several requirements including graduating in four years, maintaining a 2.0 GPA and remaining in communication with the Daniels Fund.

She will also have to declare a major by the end of freshman

year, Gromer said. But after years of working with Make-A-Wish, Gromer is planning to major in public relations with a minor in nonprofit and philanthropy.

She is also working on plans to intern with Make-A-Wish in the summer of 2023.

Gromer learned about the scholarship, which is focused on middle and low-earning families, from her school counselor in September, submitting her application October.

That included four essays, a survey and two teacher recommendations.

A few months later, she interviewed in front of a panel for about 15 minutes as the next phase in the selection process.

“It was definitely a little bit nerve wracking but I was overall just very excited to be there,” she said.

In March, she found out she had been chosen.

The experience caps off a high school experience that was anything but typical. Gromer was in the midst of her sophomore year when the COVID-19 pandemic hit and she and her classmates had to move to virtual school.

“I’m such a social person and just having that screentime alone was really really difficult for me,” she said. “There was a lot of connection missing between staff and students and students with students.”

However, Gromer ended up using the time to add new skills to her arsenal. She focused on learning about finances and began investing.

“I think in the end it really motivated me to come back stronger and to use that time to learn about new concepts and find new ways to grow,” she said.

This summer, Gromer will attend a conference with other Daniels Scholars at Denver University.

“I’m absolutely honored to be part of the 2022 program,” she said.

The three other Douglas County School District students who received the award include Hanna Becker from Highlands Ranch High School, Tabitha Reading from Mountain Vista High School and Samantha Wendell from Castle View High School.

VOICES

A bit spoiled

O

n April 20, the afternoon became rough as reality set in on just how much we are tied to our phones. The reality hit on a particular day where it was not convenient either.

Around 1:30 p.m., I picked up the phone and tried to call my husband while driving to an eye doctor appointment. I wanted to talk about dinner and see what the doctor said about our son.

FROM THE I tried dialing only to get a EDITOR strange message about the call failing. I thought it was just a glitch and tried again. I soon got a text telling me my husband could see that I was calling but could not answer it.

Then, we did the usual — restart the phone, reset network settings and, strangely, turn it to airplane mode and back off again. None of those tricks worked.

Thelma Grimes Most afternoons the inability to make an actual phone call would be fine. But it was on this afternoon on April 20 that I started to question how reliant we as a society are on these traveling companions.

While I was at the eye doctor, my husband wrote to say the place where our son’s antibiotic was called into did not have any supplies. They said they were too understaffed to call another Walgreens for us.

Well, that led to a back-and-forth about calling the doctor — oh, wait, we can’t. Then, the quick advice to just call another Walgreens — oh, wait, we can’t.

With the husband doing work meetings, I was sitting at the eye doctor thinking they need to hurry so I can drive to either the doctor’s office to get a written script or drive to another Walgreens to see if they had supplies.

I soon realized I too had a work call coming up.

Had to quickly send out an email to say it couldn’t happen.

Driving to Walgreens, I realized that once mobile devices are down, at least in my home, there is no alternative. We let the landline at our house go a long time ago. None of our devices were working to call out.

I made it to the Walgreens and had them look up my son’s information. She soon said she will give me a call when it is complete. I had to say no. I can’t get calls right now. I asked for a text or email.

This may have been a few hours in one afternoon that just had a few out-of-the-ordinary obstacles, but still, I have to say I was taken back with how much it bothered me that I could not call out. That I could not take any calls.

In the end, all worked out, I just had to do a little more work to get things done. Maybe, that is a good thing that I did not have the luxury of the phone to take care of everything.

I can say this – it is a pain to do without the phone. Maybe it is a wake-up call on how spoiled we are. How good we have it sometimes and how we take some many our luxuries for granted because most days they are just there.

Change the action and change the outcome

ust like many of you, sometimes I get so overloaded with work that I fall behind a little and need to play catch up. This happened to me earlier this week. With a big writing project due, as well as several other initiatives, I was starting to feel a little stressed out. And as I thought about all the writing I had to do, it was overwhelming and probably the last thing that I wanted to begin doing.

Although I didn’t feel like doing it in that moment, I grabbed my second cup of coffee and headed to my desk surrounded by research material and started writing.

Did I feel like writing at first? No, I didn’t.

But once I took the action to get started, my attitude improved, so my thinking improved, and within two days I completed the project.

In last week’s column I shared how changing our thoughts could change our outcomes. Staying with that same theme, I wanted to share how changing our actions will also change our outcomes. There are always times where we don’t feel like doing something, especially something hard, or taking on a task that sucks the energy from us. When that happens it’s easy to give in and walk away. But if we start doing the work or the task, we usually wind up working ourselves into a better mood.

There has always been a healthy debate about this topic. Does attitude drive the behavior, or does the behavior drive the attitude? There are people who believe that applying a positive mindset can help them overcome the barriers and they can start doing the work. They change their action by first changing their attitude.

This works well for those people who

have this capability, but it doesn’t work for everyone.

There are others who believe that by jumping in and starting the work regardless of how they feel, they will tell you that after taking step one and starting, steps two, three, four and more propel them into doing the task with a much better attitude. These are Michael Norton also the people who will usually look for the hardest or biggest project or task that needs to get done and do that one first. If there is a difficult or challenging conversation that needs to take place, it’s going to be their first call.

For those of us who work out there are those mornings or days where we just don’t feel like it. Some give in and crawl back under the covers. And some know that all they must do is get up, get to the gym, begin a run, or jump on a bike and within just a few minutes of acting, they are happy and motivated as they work towards their health goals.

When it comes to prospecting most salespeople will own up to the fact that they dislike cold calling or making phone calls to find their prospects. It’s really their least favorite thing to do.

But again, once they take that first step, take the action of making that first call, they will generally get fired up as they set appointments and make some sales.

They change their attitude by changing

The perfect parents

W

hen Ryan and I were thinking of starting our family, we were determined to be the “perfect parents.” It was so hard to watch other parents struggle with their children, knowing that if they just knew what we knew, their kids wouldn’t behave like such terrors.

At the church we attended at the time, there was a family that let their daughter run up and down the pews during the entire service.

They would even allow her to walk around on the stand.

Only when she started tugging on the clothes of the person speaking did the parents finally go up to get her. One Sunday, I got so fed up, I gently scooped her in my arms as she passed by my seat and took her out in the hall. If anyone asked, my cover story was that I assumed the mom needed a break so I was watching her child so she could enjoy the service.

But who was I kidding? Annoyed at the brazen irresponsibility of the parents, I was trying to do the rest of the congregation a favor. And my body language showed it.

The continued incompetency of

parents astounded us everywhere we went. If parents would just take their kids to the car every time they threw a fit at the store, they’d eventually learn to behave.

If you treat your kids with respect, they’ll treat you with respect. Give Stacy Carruth them a candy bar when they tell the truth, and they’ll always tell the truth. Kids yell and hit because their parents yell and hit. It’s simple logic, people.

Our children would sit quietly in church and listen attentively.

They would be honest, kind and respectful. They would never hit.

We wouldn’t allow them in the store unless they were well behaved. We would make sure of it.

Fast forward 5 years and I was a mom of 3 kids: Diana (4), Steve (2) and Peter (2 months). We were standing in the grocery line.

Steve was crying because he dropped his special bear somewhere else in the store and yelling at and

MOTHER MUSINGS

hitting me to go get it.

Diana was whining for a treat over and over and Peter was screaming because he was desperately hungry. I was exhausted from feeding him during the night. We had just enough formula to make it until the morning (because my milk didn’t last past a month) and I couldn’t buy more before then because we were waiting for our next paycheck to be able to pay for it. I couldn’t leave the grocery store because he was hungry and the only thing that would calm him down was to wait in that darn line, with screaming kids behind a man who decided that that day was a great day to pay with a check.

Yes, I was that mom. In that moment, I was the exact replica of all the parents I had harshly judged for so many years.

And that was the day (on top of so many others) that I gave up being a perfect mom. That was the day that I decided to give myself, and everyone around me, a break.

Now, I just focus on dealing with the hand I was dealt, no matter how unfair or impossible it may be.

And that is exactly what makes

me the best mom for my kids- by showing up every morning in the mess. I deal with my own trauma, baggage, insecurities, marriage issues and budget constraints while also trying desperately hard to keep these (now) four humans alive and not screw them up (but just in case, we do have a trust fund set aside for therapy in the future).

I stopped labeling myself as a good or bad mom. In every situation of parenting, I am simply doing the best with what I have: the energy I have, the knowledge I have, the patience I have and the support I have.

Yes, educate yourself, go to therapy, self-reflect but at the end of the day, you can only be a little bit better than you were the day before. You simply cannot start from anywhere else than where you are- Today.

And I’m still telling myself this as my 5-year-old loudly broadcasts to the entire house, “Yo the wuhst stinky butt Mommy in the hoe wide uh-ff!” (because he can’t say “world”).

Stacey Carruth is a parent with four children in Arapahoe County.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Kluth is standout candidate In researching the Douglas County sheriff’s candidates, I was surprised at the great depth and breadth of Holly Kluth’s experience, training, and leadership from within our Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. On top of her strong credentials of law enforcement and proven leadership, I think some of her special strengths need to be shared.

Holly Kluth created and actively supported officer training programs and initiatives that assisted local, state and federal programs, starting in her early career, helping women be more successful when not many women were entering this field, to spending years on a nonprofit providing facilities and programs for officers across the state. She continued her own training with coursework and degrees throughout the years as well. Her focus on training will be a key factor attracting and retaining our great sheriff’s deputies.

Mental health is a topic we hear

bandied about with respect to understanding and preventing crime.

Holly Kluth took that a step further and added a degree in psychology ... what better to have a science-based and objective way to understand the issues, and work toward true solutions regarding mental health in all aspects of law enforcement.

And that includes understanding of and compassion for victims too.

Holly Kluth was appointed to the Douglas County Physical School Safety Committee after the STEM tragedy, where she worked with numerous experts and professionals to identify cost-efficient, viable and effective school safety measures.

Holly Kluth coordinated the development of a multi-jurisdictional DNA Crime Lab, something that helps us not only here in Douglas County, but also across multiple jurisdictions.

Looking at her credentials, Holly Kluth is a standout candidate for Douglas County sheriff.

LIFE

Despite fussy reputation, orchids are far from delicate

BY DEBORAH GRIGSBY DGRIGSBY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

O

rchids have been around for millions of years and thrive on every continent except Antarctica.

But with such a hearty ancestry, how do you keep from killing them once you bring them home from the grocery store?

Whether you’ve purchased one for yourself or received one as a gift, you may be among those who find orchids intimidating. Although growing in popularity, expert growers say these exotic beauties are, perhaps, among the most misunderstood of all houseplants.

A brief history of orchids Opinions on when and where orchids first appeared on earth are as varied as the plant itself. However, research points to sometime between 60 and 190 million years ago.

The Chinese philosopher and statesman Confusious often wrote about orchids, immortalizing their beauty and fragrance in his poetry.

Other formalized references to orchids appear in print between 350 B.C. and 287 B.C. in Theophrastus’s “Enquiry Into Plants,” an early manual that described and classified plants.

In early Greece, orchids were revered as symbols of fertility, as the Greek word óchis translates as testicle, inspired by the shape of its root. In some stories, women would ingest large amounts of orchis roots if they wanted to have a son and less if they wanted a girl.

Orchids eventually made their way to the wealthy in England through financed collecting expeditions. Many publications cite instances of “orchidelirium” or orchid madness during Victorian times.

Voracious appetites for cultivating, selling, and trading the unusual flowers among the upper class gave rise to organized groups of collectors and early orchid publications and societies.

Many rare species died en route from their native habitat or at the hands of inexperienced handlers, driving up the price exponentially.

Some orchids were so soughtafter by anxious collectors that entire species were destroyed.

A recent article by The Guardian’s reporter Patrick Greenfield tells of modern-day orchid smugglers in England have warranted increased security around the Kew Royal Botanic Gardens to prevent theft of rare and unusual spe cies.

About that grocery store orchid Today, orchids can be found almost anywhere, including your local supermarket florist and the garden section at hardware stores.

According to Althea McKinney, an orchid expert and greenhouse

Orchids often bloom in the winter, which can be very gratifying, while other outdoor plants are dormant. The 10,000-square-foot Fantasy Orchids greenhouse in Louisville, Colorado, is home to 30,000 to 50,000 orchids at any given time.

Orchids are the largest group of flowering plants on earth. Unfortunately, they are also among the most misunderstood.

Their exotic blooms and aerial roots often give the impression of being demanding and challenging when it comes to care.

However, orchid experts say they are one of the most resilient and longest blooming houseplants available to plant lovers of all skill levels.

Aerial roots from orchids are not uncommon.

They help the plant absorb moisture and micronutrients from the air.

Excessive aerial roots may indicate the orchid needs repotting.

attendant at Fantasy Orchids in Louisville, Colorado, home to the

most extensive collection of orchids in the Rocky Mountain region, most

grocery store orchids are of the Phalaenopsis variety, more commonly known as moth orchids. They are monopodial, meaning they typically grow from a single stem.

But buying an orchid is the easy part, right?

Well, yes.

But McKinney says caring for your orchid can also be easy.

She said that what gets most newly-minted orchid lovers in trouble is the care tag that comes with the orchid.

McKinney said some tags instruct the owner to toss the plant in the garbage after it blooms.

Other tags will say water the plant with ice cubes.

“It’s really just a marketing thing,” she said. “They want to provide a cheap plant and then get you to buy another. I can tell you that watering an orchid with ice cubes will damage the root structure over time.”

So what’s the secret to not killing them?

McKinney says it’s simple.

Orchids, by design, thrive on benign neglect.

They need only water, fertilizer and sunlight.

No classical music is required.

To be fair, orchids are a little different than other household plants.

“They grow in the same jungle as your typical snake plants, spider plants and monsteras, but those plants all grow on the jungle floor. Orchids grow up in the trees,” McKinney said.

And that means watering them beckons a whole new school of thought.

“If you think about it, the orchid’s roots are pretty exposed in their natural environment, so water rushes over them,” she said. “And then they dry out pretty quickly, compared to a typical houseplant that grows in soil.”

But the main thing to remember is that orchids never sit in water for prolonged periods.

McKinney recommends watering your new orchid by plunging it, still in its slotted plastic container, into lukewarm water. The idea is to quickly saturate everything in the pot and then let it dry out between waterings.

Overwatering is among the most frequent causes of orchid deaths.

“I usually suggest soaking your orchid for no more than five minutes, or just or just running water through the pot for 30 seconds,” she said. “That’s all there is to it.”

And while you’re watering, think about light and fertilizer.

“We fertilize every single time we water,” McKinney said. “A lot of people will come in with a plant, and I can tell that has been 10 feet away from a window, they have not fertilized it the entire they’ve had it—and get frustrated because they can’t get SEE ORCHIDS, P13

Greenhouse attendant Althea McKinney stands among thousands of orchids at Fantasy Orchids in Louisville, one of the largest retail and wholesale orchids suppliers to the state. She said growing orchids in Colorado is not as difficult as many believe—there are approximately 20 species of orchids that are native to the Centennial State.

it to rebloom. Light, nutrients and proper watering is the key.”

She said just follow the instructions that come with the bag of fertilizer, but don’t go crazy.

Over-fertilizing can burn your orchid’s root system.

Yes, but can they survive in Colorado?

Orchids belong to the most prominent plant families in the world and come in many forms, shapes, sizes and colors.

They have learned to thrive in various locations, including marshy bogs and mountain tops.

McKinney said there are close to 20 species of orchids native to Colorado.

Experts at the Denver Botanic Gardens say that number is closer to 25, albeit orchids native to Colorado are dormant most of the year and are far more diminutive than their glamorous tropical cousins.

These orchids are found in moist

Like fine dust, orchid seeds float away from a seed pod. They are among the smallest seeds in the world. While it is possible to grow orchids directly from seed, it can take more than two years before any leaf growth is visible.

shaded ravines and at altitudes between 8,000 and 11,000 feet.

Peak bloom times range between late May and early September.

Unfortunately, McKinney says Colorado’s cool, dry climate is not the biggest challenge to growing healthy orchids in the Centennial State.

The biggest threat is the internet.

“There’s a lot of misinformation floating around on the internet;

much of it comes from YouTubers who don’t grow orchids in an environment like ours,” she said.

“People try to mimic what people are doing on the other side of the world, which is a death sentence for these plants, which are very easy to care for.”

Plants grown at Fantasy Orchids are already climatized to Colorado’s low-humidity environment.

Paint Box Guild keeps art scene busy Multiple exhibits share works with community BYSONYAELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In Littleton, the Bemis Library exhibit juried by Chris Stevens from Curtis Center for the Arts ends April 29, so readers will have to hurry to see it, but next will be a new exhibit by Paint Box Guild of Littleton at Denver Community Credit Union, 101 W. Mineral Ave. (at Broadway), May 6 through July and an exhibit at Centennial’s Koelbel Library, to be hung on Sept. 12, running through October, as well as an exhibit at Littleton’s Buck Center in October, according to a current newsletter sent to the Guild’s 40 members. (Each notice says how many pieces can fit in the allotted space.) An exhibit is also at Elsewear Collectives in downtown Littleton, to come down in May. “Steer’s Lookin’ at You” won Best of Show in the Bemis exhibit and the artist, Sue Williams, also took first place for her angular “Attic Lights.” Second place was awarded to Richard Simpson for “Parry’s Primrose” while third place went to active member Merrie Wicks for “Moonlight Express.”

Membership in this busy organization, established in 1973 by Lucille Grisham, includes monthly meetings during the school year at Littleton First Presbyterian Church, 1609 W. Littleton Blvd. Annual dues are $35. An instructor appears once a month September through May to teach new techniques

($10 fee) and, of course, members continually learn from each other through the years. On April 20, Richard Simmons instructed artists about acrylic painting methods.

Guild members paint together each Wednesday at the church from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and for the three summer months, they move outside for plein air sessions, individually or with others as arranged. This activity level leads to lots of artwork that can be enjoyed by the community around Littleton.

(Here’s a spot to remind readers that original art is a wonderful, truly special gift for a newlywed pair, a person in a first apartment away from home, a recent graduate or perhaps a friend with a birthday.)

There is an annual PBG Fall painting trip as well — last September it involved three nights in Trinidad, where the new Fisher’s Peak State Park opened last year (the Bemis exhibit included a handsome watercolor of the peak by Shirley Conrad).

The summer trip included nocturnal painting in Trinidad, according to member Shainne De Tamble, who generously spent some time with me last week for an update. The Paint Box Guild has 40 active members at present.

For information, see paintboxguildlittleton.org. This website includes examples of member work and a schedule for the next year, which is still a work in progress.

Other active art groups in the south area include Littleton Fine Arts Guild and Heritage Fine Arts Guild. Instruction is available through these groups as well as at Arapahoe Community

College, Curtis Center for the Arts and with some individual instructors in the

area. It’s a really nice way to add a new dimension to one’s life …

Sincerely, Gretchen Gifting Dear Gretchen Gifting, Congratulations on your new family! From our experience, we know that you and your wife will have your hands full for years to come. Planning for rugrats is something that takes careful consideration and love!

Saving for Higher Education can be a very burdensome goal. Not to mention, sight can be easily lost as it is a goal that is typically 18 years away. Not to worry, there are options!

One of the most effective planning tools for Higher Education is the 529 Plan.

First off, there are no income tax consequences associated with direct payment of tuition expenses. However, for financial aid purposes, direct payment of tuition expenses will likely be considered a resource that will reduce the student’s financial aid awards on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Since expenses such as room and board, books, and fees do not qualify for the exclusion from gift tax, establishing a 529 plan, in addition to directly paying tuition, will allow for the payment of incidental expenses in a tax-advantaged way.

A 529 plan is an investment account created by a donor in the name of a designated beneficiary for the purpose of paying education expenses. Funds invested in a 529 plan will accumulate and grow free of federal income tax, and if the funds are used for qualified education expenses (for college: tuition, room and board, fees, books, supplies, and equipment; for elementary, middle and high schools: tuition only), they are exempt from federal income tax.

529 plans are vehicles created under federal law, but every jurisdiction has a plan – with Colorado’s being among the most popular. Although a donor is not required to participate in the donor’s state plan, there may be state income tax incentives to do so. There are three main factors to consider when determining which state plan to use: state tax benefits, investment options, and cost.

Contact our offices for valuable advice on all matters related to 529 Plans and higher education (303)670-9855.

You will find connection at the Benchmark Theatre f we’ve learned anything from the last two years, it’s that all of us, at one point or another, will get sick. It’s not an enjoyable truth to ruminate on, but one that was repeatedly proven in the midst of a global pandemic.

And while playwright Noah Diaz wrote “You Will Get Sick” before COVID-19, the show’s themes have rarely been as pertinent as they are in modern times.

“There’s just something about the humanity of the play,” said Christy Montour-Larson, resident guest director at Lakewood’s Benchmark Theatre Theatre. “The show has a great sense of humor and also asks the right questions about your rights when you get sick, how you get through difficult times and how social/economic status makes things difficult.”

The world premiere workshop production of “You Will Get Sick” runs at The Bench at 40West, 1560 Teller St. in Lakewood, through Saturday, May 14. Performances are at 8 p.m. on Thursday through Saturday and 2 p.m. on Sunday. The cast features Peter Trinh, Edith Weiss, Sonsharae Tull, Brian Kusic and Josue Miranda.

A part of Benchmark’s “Aftermath”-themed 2021/2022 season, the show is told in the second person and explores how someone learns to live with a body that is consumed by sickness. As MontourLarson explains, the show follows a man who receives a heartbreaking

diagnosis but can’t bring himself to admit it out loud.

Instead, he hires a woman to tell the people in his life that he’s sick.

“The play is funny at times, heartwarming at other times and very thoughtprovoking,” she said.

Clarke Reader “It’s always exciting to work on new plays, because playwrights are the backbone of the American theater and we need to support new and exciting talents.”

Diaz contributed to bringing the production to life and the theater made some bold storytelling choices, like staging it in the round. And the hope is audiences – the final but most important ingredient of powerful storytelling – will be moved by the story.

“It’s quite an honor to share this work for the first time with the Colorado community, especially because when you go see a brand-new play, you get to be part of shaping its future,” Montour-Larson said. “I hope it stirs people’s emotions and leaves them thinking a few days later.

I think we’ve all developed a kind of community hunger for that energy when a group of people are all in a room together.”

Information and tickets can be found at www.benchmarktheatre. com.

COMING ATTRACTIONS

A midsummer’s parking lot theatrical production Shakespeare’s words sound great almost anywhere. It’s a kind of magic trick that few others have figured out. And if you want to hear the proof, the Denver Center for the Performing Arts (DCPA) is bringing back its Shakespeare in the Parking Lot education program.

And it’ll be stopping by the Thornton Arts & Culture Center, 9209 Dorothy Blvd., at noon on Saturday, April 30. The performance will feature an abridged production of Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” centered around a pickup truck set in the parking lot.

According to provided information, the cast members are local actors and DCPA teaching artists, including Shannon Altner, Ryan Omar Stack Grant Bowman and Chloe McLeod.

For tickets and other stops along the tour, visit denvercenter.org.

‘Foreigners’ take audiences to Argentina There are numerous ways for a theatrical experience to be more than something that is simply observed. In Maru Garcia’s production of “Foreigners,” she uses appointed “tour guides” to take audiences through a period of turmoil in 1970s Argentina.

Running at Colorado Free University, 7653 E. 1st Place in Denver, through Sunday, June 12 at 6 p.m. on Sundays, Wheat Ridge Theatre Company’s “Foreigners” (written by Griselda Gambaro and translated by Marguerite Feitlowitz) lets people

bear witness to a time when authority spun out of control in the quest for total power. The cast includes Jim Hayes, Mellisa Taylor, Gisselle Gonzale and Suzie Duarte, Information and tickets can be found at https://wheatridgetheatre. com/.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Freddie Gibbs at the Fox Theatre and Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom If you’re going to talk about the best rapper alive (I know what you’re like), then Freddie Gibbs has to be in the conversation. The Gary, Indiana, MC has been releasing top notch records for nearly 20 years, but he didn’t really hit his stride until the mid-2010s, when he collaborated with Madlib on the album, “Pinata.”

While Gibbs astounds every time he’s on the mic, he still doesn’t have the wide acclaim he deserves. But the positive aspect of this is you can still see him a great, intimate venues.

And you’ll have two options this time around: you can see him at the Fox Theatre, 1135 13th St. in Boulder at 9 p.m. on Friday, April 29 and Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom, 2637 Welton St. in Denver, at 8 p.m. on Saturday, April 30.

Rock Canyon takes down ThunderRidge Rossner scores important goal, injures ankle

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It was not a spectacular highlight reel tally but Grace Rossner’s goal on

a sunny, windy April 21 afternoon at Halftime Help Stadium was important.

Rossner scored in the 29th minute of the first half as Rock Canyon went on the get a 2-0 girls soccer victory over ThunderRidge in a match between Continental League leaders.

Her goal was an insurance tally and then the Jaguars’ defense held on in

the second half for the key victory.

Rock Canyon, the seventh ranked team in Colorado, improved its record to 9-1 overall and 6-1 in the league.

ThunderRidge slipped to 6-2-2 overall and 4-2-1 in the Continental League.

An apparent goal by ThunderRidge’s Kera Nguyen appeared to stake the Grizzlies a 1-0 lead but the

score didn’t count because of an offsides call.

Sophomore Clara Geuzaine of Rock Canyon came back less that four minutes after the non-goal and pushed the Jaguars ahead 1-0.

That’s when Rossner, a sophomore, became the big player in front of the net as Rock Canyon grabbed a twogoal advantage.

“The ball bounced off the goalie and I just happened to be there,” said Rossner.

“It was just a follow up. It was a pretty easy tap in.”

Rossner aggravated an ankle injury in the second half. She limped off the field but had her ankle taped and returned to the game.

Urbani pitches 4-hit shutout in victory Mountain Vista improves to 14-1

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Mountain Vista senior pitcher Anthony Urbani defeated Douglas PHOTO BY JIM BENTON County on April 20 with a four-hit shutout.

Mountain Vista senior righthander Anthony Urbani was in command the entire game and didn’t let a few base runners bother him.

Urbani pitched a four-hit shutout as Vista defeated Douglas County, 4-0, in a Continental League baseball game on April 20 at Douglas County.

“I had a good outing,” said Urbani. “I had really good defense behind me and the

best catcher in the state (Tucker Moore). That really helped me out.”

Urbani pitched all seven innings and limited the Huskies to two hits until the seventh when they got two more and left the bases loaded. Urbani stuck out nine batters and walked two.

Douglas County had runners on second and third in the second inning but Urbani fanned two hitters to silence the threat. In the seventh, the Huskies collected two singles and a walk to load the bases with two outs but Urbani ended the game and preserved the shutout by inducing a ground ball out.

“I just tried to make some good pitches and let them put it in play and it ended

up working out for me,” said Urbani. “Fast balls away and my curve ball were on. I was getting a little tired in the seventh.

“We’re a great team and we play as a team. Hopefully we can go far this year.

We’ve had three big games in a row against Valor, Heritage and Douglas County.

We’ll move on to the next and hopefully come out on top.”

Vista coach Ron Quintana praised Urbani.

“He was on fire,” he said.

“He had all three pitches working and worked out of a couple jams as well. We were in the huddle and never got too excited or down. Everybody did their jobs.”

Fourth-ranked Douglas County fell to 10-2 overall and 0-1 in the league.

The Huskies threw two wild pitches, walked eight batters and committed three errors which helped Vista.

Douglas County pitchers Max Stanley and Hunter Gotschall combined

to strike out 16 batters.

“Mountain Vista is too good of a team to make mistakes,” said Huskies coach Craig Gienger. “We struck out 16 of their guys. If you had told me that we struck out 16 of their guys and lost, I would have said no way.

“They did a good job of running the bases and did a good job of taking advantage of mistakes. That was the difference. I was a little disappointed with our at-bats especially throughout the middle innings and late in the game. Credit to them and the guy on the mound. We had a chance in the seventh with the bases loaded but credit goes to them. They played a great game.”

Gotschall, Eli Athanas, Tyler Stonebraker and Hayden Osborn had the Douglas County hits.

Federal agents searched the trash at Robert Van Camp’s and his purported co-conspirator’s Parker home in October and allegedly found crumpled handwritten documents, SCREENSHOT FROM FEDERAL COMPLAINT including one titled “Card List” that included the names of individuals and the quantity of cards ordered.

a year, according to the complaint filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Denver. He made thousands of dollars selling the cards that were allegedly “visually indistinguishable” from legitimate vaccination record cards designed and distributed by the CDC. Van Camp and his co-conspirator, who is not named in the federal complaint, used an electronic copy of a blank COVID-19 vaccination record card that looked identical to official vaccination cards, the complaint said. Van Camp included the official government logos of both the U.S. Department of Human Health Services and the CDC and used false information about vaccination dates, vaccination providers, vaccination sites and vaccination lot numbers.

home in October and found crumpled handwritten documents, including one titled “Card List” that included the names of individuals and the quantity of cards ordered. He also sold cards to four federal undercover agents, the complaint said.

Van Camp, a resident of both Parker and Bulverde, Texas, published magazines which contained ads and promotions from various businesses.

He headed two business networking associations called Parker Best Leads Group and Castle Rock Best Leads Group, according to the complaint.

At least one witness, who attended a networking meeting led by Van Camp, heard Van Camp say he had “inside knowledge” about COVID-19 vaccination cards because of his co-conspirator’s security clearance, the complaint said. That person saw Van Camp with a two-inch stack of fraudulent cards, offering to sell them for $17 to $20 each.

Another witness, who also attended one of the meetings, confronted Van

Camp after seeing him with a pile of fake cards and said that he should not be selling them, according to the complaint. Van Camp allegedly responded that he did not care what the witness thought.

Van Camp also made sales in numerous states through email, text and phone, according to the complaint, including to federal employees who were required to be vaccinated against COVID-19 under the federal employee vaccination requirement.

In September 2021, Van Camp sold five fraudulent cards — charging $120 per card — to an undercover federal agent in or near Castle Rock, the federal complaint said.

“I kinda have a hookup on the real, real ‘V’ card, you know what I’m saying?” Van Camp reportedly told the agent. “Like I can hook you and all of your employees up so if anybody asks you can show them the card. I have done it for about 700 of my customers.”

He told the agent he had sold the

fake vaccination cards to people who were traveling to the Tokyo Olympics, including three Olympians and their coach and people traveling internationally.

“So until I get caught and go to jail, (expletive) it, I’m taking the money!

I don’t care. I’ve saved a thousand lives,” he said, according to the complaint. “And what they’re doing is wrong, we know this, so how is what I’m doing wrong? I’m just kinda fixing this wrong is all I’m doing. It’s not like I’m making hundred-dollar bills.”

He told another federal agent that he was making between 30 to 40 cards a night and that making the cards was a full-time job.

“I went up for a header, got pushed down and kindof rolled it again. It feels pretty good now and hopefully it will heal fast.”

Rossner also had an assist on the first Rock Canyon goal and wound up with three points.

Cate Sheahan, the overall points leader in the league, had an assist during the game.

“I’m really blessed to have a team full of talent,” said Jaguars’ Coach Mat Henbest.

“Grace is good and makes it look easier than it is at times.

But there are a lot of good players on the team.

“We were able to create some chances in the second half but it is not easy to control the ball when you have that wind at your back. We keep getting a little better each week. We had a lot of opportunities and we could have finished a little bit more. We’ll finish those by the end of the season.”

It was Rock Canyon’s fourth straight victory over ThunderRidge and the Jaguars now hold a 7-5-1 advantage in the series between the schools.

“It’s a rivalry,” said Henbest.

“They always play us really tough and they are a quality opponent. When you get the win, that’s doubly good.”

“It was tough not getting that first goal and grabbing an early lead,” Parsons said. “I do think my player was offside but only by a bit.

“Rock Canyon is always a very solid opponent. The youth of my team showed in the first half as we were unable to match their physical play. We turned things around in the second half because we changed formations and came out with a better sense of urgency.”
