Rebate program rewards conservation Town of Castle Rock reserves $30,000 from overwatering surcharges By Rhonda Moore
rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com There is a prize awaiting Castle Rock customers who take water conservation seriously, courtesy of those who perhaps don’t. Town council continued its water rebate program for the 2013 watering season, with $30,000 in rebates available to participating customers. The program is funded by fees collected for water restriction violations and from a
portion of the Block 4 water revenue — a surcharge imposed on Castle Rock’s highest water consumers. “The surcharge (is) for customers using over 40,000 gallons per month,” said Heather Beasley, water resources manager. “If you’re watering on the wrong day of the week, you can pay a watering violation.” The water rebate program began in 2006 and has since distributed more than 3,000 rebates to participating customers. The program will continue as long as violation and overwatering fees continue to roll in, according to the town’s water department. “Town council hasn’t wanted to use regular taxpayer water revenue for conservation, we only want to use money from people penalized for excess water use,” said Mark Stevens, town manager. “Because
people have responded so well and conserve water, that has reduced the money available for conservation rebates. If you’re in compliance with your water budget, we don’t take from that water bill for rebates. We only use penalty money.” The rebate program helps the town meet and sustain its conservation goals, Beasley said. Town council approved four rebates and one customer irrigation-system review for the 2013 rebate program. Rebates are available on a first-come, first-served basis and will continue while funding is available. The 2013 rebates include rebates for replacing fixed spray nozzles with rotary nozzles, up to $1,500 for replacing high-consumption landscaping with xeriscape or
hardscape, and money for installing a rain sensors and smart irrigation controllers. Commercial customers can also participate in the program. “This has been a very, very successful program during the year,” said Councilmember Clark Hammelman. “If people want to participate, they should act early because this money doesn’t last throughout the year.” An application is required to participate. For more information about the water rebate incentive program or to apply, call 720733-6000 or visit the town’s website at www. crgov.com, select town services under the town government drop-down menu, go to utilities/Castle Rock water, select customer resources and select rebates from the dropdown menu.

Abandoned animals find friends Parker-area couple opens home, hearts By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com When animals are no longer wanted or cared for, Lynda and John Edwards give them a loving home. Every animal in their barnyard has a heartbreaking story. There is Molly the zebu, a sacred cow from India that, despite being perfectly healthy, was going to be euthanized when the Denver Zoo closed its Krall exhibit. There is Fudgie, a plump, 15-year-old Chihuahua that was among 15 rescued “bait dogs” used to rile up pit bulls before a fight. There are the three roosters that were dumped over the fence and into the barnyard a month ago. Countless others
have been abused or neglected. There are so many creatures at the Edwards Foundation for Rescued Animals just east of Parker that its proprietor is unable to say exactly how many are on the 5-acre property. Regardless, the animals have gotten a second chance at life and even found some unlikely companions. It’s a common theme in the Edwards household, where foster children were raised before the animals took over. The Edwardses continue to help those in need, as long as they donate some of their time and effort. The large-animal rescue is run entirely by volunteers, including high school students who perform community service, Abandoned continues on Page 7
Molly, a zebu that was rescued when the Denver Zoo closed an exhibit, is among the animals that have retired at Edwards Foundation for Rescued Animals.
The Douglas County commissioners took over the process of nominating and appointing library trustees, with a 3-0 vote at the March 26 commissioners’ meeting. Prior to the change, the Douglas County Library District Board of Trustees had, since the early 1990s, recommended new appointments for ratification by commissioners. With adoption of the new policy, two of the three commissioners will act as a nomination committee for new trustees when positions open, and a two-thirds majority vote of the commissioners will be required to approve the recommendation. The commissioners’ decision was preceded by Repella nearly two hours of public comment, most of it critical of their proposal. Of the handful of people who supported the commissioners’ decision, half were rejected library trustee applicants, or were related to someone who applied but was not selected as a trustee. The now-discarded process of the library board handling its own nominations is one of two protocols allowed under state law, which prohibits an elected trustee board. The second option is to have county commissioners appoint trustees, as they do with the planning commission and other public volunteer boards and commissions. Critics of the commissioner-appointed process fear it will politicize the library board. Commissioners adopted the process to create greater accountability to taxpayers, said Commissioner Jill Repella, District 3. “The first thing that goes through my mind and my heart is how disappointed I Library continues on Page 7

History whispers in Spanish place names The green road signs flash along Interstate 25, heading south. Pueblo, this exit. Cañon City, Salida, Buena Vista, that exit. About 50 miles south of Pueblo, you can head east on State Highway 10 to La Junta and Las Animas. A right on 160 west takes you into Huerfano County and along a thread of towns with names like La Veta, Blanca, Alamosa, Monte Vista, Del Norte. That’s the road my husband, our son and I are traveling to Durango in southwestern Colorado, not far from the New Mexico line, a region we are exploring for the first time. Along the way is a faded blue billboard that talks about Río Cucharas, the river that flows from La Veta to Walsenburg. What does that mean? my husband asks. Spoons River, I answer. He smiles. It’s a whimsical image — but one, I realize, that never gets painted unless you know the significance of the words. It makes me wonder: How much of place and culture gets lost in non-translation? So much of Colorado’s heritage is entwined in the Spanish names of its towns, rivers, mountain ranges, counties and streets — even the state itself (Colorado, red or colored). But throughout generations, we’ve Americanized their pronunciations so much — Salida becomes Sa-LIE-dah rather than Sa-LEE-dah, which means exit — that we don’t recognize the language as Spanish anymore. They become, simply, words without definitions. And without meaning, the link to the past breaks. “For non-Hispanos, that connection has been lost in many ways,” said Bill Convery, Colorado’s state historian. “We lose a little bit of the richness of our culture when we forget the meaning of a place name. Understanding these meanings helps establish our own sense of place — it gives us grounding in our community which, as
Americans, is constantly in flux.” For many Hispanos the connection remains alive but fraught with emotional complexity, said Maruca Salazar, executive director of Museo de las Americas, a Denver organization committed to preserving Latin American art and culture. “Behind all of this, there is a very intense past,” she said. “The connection was not a friendly one — it was an imposition. … We come from a conquered nation, a conquered people. That makes us very unique.” Colorado has been home to many ethnic populations — Native Americans, the first, going back more than 10,000 years; French; Germans; Irish; and others. But the first and largest non-native group was the Hispanics. In the 1500s, Spanish expeditions followed Native American trails in a search for, among other things, gold. Spanish explorers drew the first maps of the state. The Arkansas River in Pueblo, south of Colorado Springs, marked the border between New Spain and the U.S. When Mexico won its independence from Spain in 1821, it offered land grants to reinforce land claims against encroaching U.S. settlers. But following the Mexican-American War in 1848, in which a number of southwestern states including New Mexico, California and southern and western Colorado were ceded to the U.S. for $15 million, many landowners were stripped of their property by U.S. courts. A battle for identity ensued. “Imagine going to bed Mexican and
waking up American,” Salazar said, quoting her mother-in-law, whose family has been in Colorado for seven generations. “Imagine losing your land. …” The railroads in the 1870s also transformed the region. The Denver & Río Grande Railroad wanted to reach Mexico and the Gulf Coast across the Río Grande (big river), so it included the river in its name to appeal to its continental aspirations. It established towns such as Alamosa (cottonwood) and Antonito (little Anthony) to compete with older Hispanic settlements, Convery said. But the railroads also pushed many Spanish-speaking farmers and ranchers into the northern parts of the state as English-speaking settlers moved in and changed the economic and political landscapes. They left behind, however, an enduring trail of history in places, traditions and influence. Many of the names that dot the southwestern part of the state, such as Barela and Cordova, come from the families that first settled the area. Conejos County is one of Convery’s favorite stories. The county moniker, which means rabbits, came from the naming of the creek, so billed in the 1850s because its waters “ran as fast as a rabbit.” Huerfano County comes from the volcanic butte that stands as a lonely sentinel — a huérfano or orphan — on the plains near Walsenburg. It was a major landmark for Hispanics traveling through the area, Convery said. The tiny town of Del Norte (from the North) got its name as the northern end of the Río Grande. Franciscan monks, following the Spaniards who named the San Luis (Saint Louis) Valley, watched the summer sunlight turn the earth of the nearby mountains a deep red. “It looks like blood,” Salazar said. “That’s what the Franciscans saw.” And so they called the range Sangre de Cristo, the
blood of Christ. French and Germans also left their marks. Walsenburg was initially La Plaza de los Leones after the León family, but was renamed by the German immigrant Fred Walsen. The French decided to call Río Jesús María (River of Jesus and Mary) the Platte (flat — a pronunciation from French) instead. Spanish explorers named the river near Durango Las Animas Perdidas en Purgatorio (the lost souls of Purgatory). But French-Canadian traders called it Purgatoire, and later, Convery said, American cattlemen rechristened it Picketwire. Three different names — all reflective of the changing nature of history around the river. Like all names, they are stories that tell us how we got here. But we have to listen — and sometimes that means making the effort to translate. “Understanding the meaning and history of a place,” Convery said, “grounds us and helps us establish that we belong.” “Identity is an essential element of your psyche,” Salazar said. When “I know where I come from, I know what my values are.” As I scan a map of Colorado, poetic names jump at me — Dolores River, the river of sorrows. La Junta, the junction. Las Animas, the souls. What stories, I wonder, lie hidden in their names? And then there’s Mosca, a town of 674 people in the San Juan Valley whose name means fly. “I don’t know why it’s called Mosca,” Convery said. “But there’s got to be a story behind it.” One, assuredly, that gives meaning to life in Colorado today.

County suicide rate spikes Coroner working with local prevention group By Jane Reuter
jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Suicide rates in Douglas County so far in 2013 are far higher than last year, a trend that pierces Coroner Lora Thomas’ professional shield. Thomas recently spoke about the trend to members of the Douglas County Suicide Prevention Alliance. “All of a sudden, my voice started shaking and I started getting tears in my eyes,” said Thomas. “I think I handle this job pretty well. But we lost 12 people in February (to suicide). We usually lose three or four.” Most recently, 20-year-old Jordan Emslie of Highlands Ranch jumped to his death from an interstate overpass in Lone Tree. His March 25 suicide brings Douglas County’s 2o13 total to 20. “For all of 2012, we investigated 44,” Thomas said. “It’s very alarming.” Emslie is youngest to die so far this year. The people most likely to commit suicide, in both Douglas County and the nation, are middle-aged white men. Conflicted relationships, alcohol and drug abuse and mental illness are often common denominators among them. Thomas not only sees the immediate aftermath of suicide, but its impact on those left behind. “In their lives, they just want the pain to end,” she said. “They leave a whole other group of pain in their wake. It’s kind of like a ripple effect when you drop a little stone in the water.” Thomas has adopted suicide prevention as her cause. Her office is part of the Douglas County Suicide Prevention Alliance, which unites members of the mental health community, law enforcement, schools and churches in a shared mission. The key to prevention, alliance president Matt Calone said, is communication. “Talking about suicide doesn’t necessarily increase the risk of suicide,” he said. “It actually relieves some of the anxiety. People think that generally when someone’s sui-
‘It’s widely said that suicide is the most preventable cause of death.’ Matt Calone, president of local suicide-prevention group cidal there’s nothing you can do to change their mind, but it’s widely said that suicide is the most preventable cause of death.” That doesn’t mean a friend, family member or co-worker should take on the role of therapist. Calone, also director of business development at Highlands Behavioral Health System, recommends listening and then directing the person to trained experts — a therapist, doctor or emergency room. That process worked to save the life of a Douglas County high school student, Calone said. The teen confided his suicidal thoughts to his peers, who helped lead him to a school counselor. The boy was hospitalized and treated. He then become more involved in school and gained confidence, eventually landing a leading role in a student production. “The more we write about it and talk about it, the better,” said Barb Becker, division director for Arapahoe/Douglas Mental Health Network. “Have conversations with your children, at work. Let people know there is hope out there. We have to be not afraid to talk about this subject. There’s shame and guilt that still surrounds it and we need to get rid of that.” More information is available at www. dcsuicideprevention.org. For men, the Colorado-created website www.mantherapy.org offers advice and suggestions with a masculine twist. Help is also available through the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800273-8255.
SHERIFF’S BRIEFS Leaving a trail of blood
Sometime between 1 and 6 p.m. March 20 someone attempted to break into an apartment in the 7300 block of Village Square at Advenir at Castle Pines, leaving a trail of blood behind. When the residents returned at 6 p.m. that evening they noticed the blood trail extending from the newly broken door handle to the door frame, concrete patio and rocks in front of the door. It appeared someone had attempted to break in using a tool and became injured. Nothing was out of place inside the apartment and it appeared no one without permission had actually gotten inside.
Newly purchased home vandalized
A resident who closed on a home in 300 block of Olympus Circle in Lone Tree March 19 discovered his home had been vandalized within 24 hours of purchase. The homebuyer completed a walk-through at closing and saw no damage, but returned the following day to find his wood fence had been knocked down, some cable
had been ripped out the side of the home and a basement window was broken out. There are no suspects or leads at this time and the case has since been deactivated. Another home, bank-owned, in the 15000 block of Ledge Rock Drive in Parker, was vandalized on March 19, and had vulgarities spray-painted on two interior windows and an inside wall, plus damage reported to multiple bedroom door frames.
Thefts around the Ranch
There were three residential burglaries and one motor vehicle theft reported in Highlands Ranch between March 15 and 22. On March 15, there was a theft of between $1,000 and $20,000 from a residence on the 10600 block of Backcountry Drive. On March 16, a vehicle was stolen in the 800 block of Summers Drive. On March 17 there was a theft of between $1,000 and $20,000 from a residence in the 8400 block of South Wildcat Reserve Parkway. And on March 22, there was a theft valued at between $500 and $1,000 at a residence in the 1100 block of Cobblestone Drive.

Photo by Rhonda Moore “Douglas County is about one-third of the congressional district,” George said. “He knew he needed (a presence) here.” Gardner also has offices in Greeley, Yuma
and Rocky Ford. The open house filled early and included students who added the visit to their spring break itinerary. Student visitors included
some from Douglas and Elbert counties, and a group from Otero County. The Otero County students, brought by Yesenia Beascochea of the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition, traveled nearly three hours to talk to Gardner about immigration legislation. Local students included 16-year-old twins Jack and Mitch Erdle, 16, from Lone Tree. The Erdles visited as part of their sophomore advanced placement government curriculum. “It’s great that we get to talk to him and interact with him,” Jack Erdle said. “It’s good because my parents want to vote for him.” Gardner fielded questions from residents concerned about immigration, Obamacare, the economy and Second Amendment issues. He introduced federal legislation this year aimed at making college affordable by increasing tax-free contributions to college savings accounts to $10,000, George said. His other legislation is aimed to help small businesses, with a tax-free savings account for money used to start or grow a small business, she said. Gardner’s office is at 7505 Village Square Drive, Suite 202, in Castle Pines. For more information, contact Jorge Delgado, district representative, at 720-508-3937, or visit www.Gardner.House.Gov.

A private plane en route to Centennial Airport Na-crashed at a cattle ranch -800-near Castlewood Canyon State Park, killing the male pilot who was the lone occupant of the craft. The Douglas County coroner’s office identified the pilot as 27-year-old Jason Craig Bedford of Englewood. The plane, a 1973 fixedwing, single-engine Cherokee Piper, last showed up on airport radar around 8:40 p.m. March 30, about the same time the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office received a call from a resident in the area reporting what sounded like an airplane making stalling noises. “Centennial did not get any emergency call or any maydays,” said Deborah Sherman, spokeswoman for the sheriff’s office. “A ranch hand at Winkler Cattle Company checking on a sick calf (Sunday) morning saw the wreckage, and contacted us.” The sheriff’s office responded to the call at 10:10 a.m. March 31, along with Franktown Fire and the National Transportation Safety
A 1973 Cherokee Piper single-engine airplane en route to Centennial Airport from a New Mexico airfield crashed at Winkler Cattle Company outside Franktown March 30 and was discovered by a ranch hand the following morning. The crash killed the plane’s single occupant, a 27-year-old Englewood man. Courtesy photo Board. Sherman said the NTSB was conducting an investigation to determine whether the accident was caused by mechanical failure, human error or environmental causes. They will also research radar data, and the pilot’s sleep patterns and background. A preliminary report is expected to be released within seven to 10 days of the accident. The plane had departed Sandia Airpark in Edgewood, N.M., and Bedford was en route to spend Easter with his girlfriend, Sherman said. The girlfriend contacted the FAA Saturday
evening when he did not land on time. The FAA issued a report and contacted the sheriff’s office to send search and rescue team members into the area to look for possible wreckage. Searchers were unsuccessful in locating the aircraft — registered to an owner out of Texas — and it went undiscovered until the ranch hand came across it on March 31. The pilot’s certificates were up-to-date, according to Alex Lemishko, senior air investigator for the NTSB. Winkler Cattle Company, located at 2634 S. Castlewood Canyon Road, is about 20 miles south of Centennial Airport.

Scams targeting seniors on rise Sheriff ’s office warns of three popular schemes By Ryan Boldrey
rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com With springtime comes warmer weather, longer days, and an increase in the number of scams. From the sweetheart swindle to the utility impostor to the home or driveway repair scam, each one is targeted at vulnerable seniors. “We’ve seen all of these over the past couple years, and we want to get the message out early this year as a preventative measure,” said Deputy Chad Teller, spokesman for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. “They are already starting to pop up in El Paso County, and it is just a matter of time before they start happening here.” Of the three senior scams that the sheriff’s office wants to get on people’s radar, the most common is the utility impostor scam, in which one or two men will knock on a door and say they are from the city or the
water, electric, or cable company. The men will attempt to convince the resident that they need to go into the basement or backyard and that they need to test the water pressure or electricity. They will most likely say that company regulations don’t allow them to go into the basement unaccompanied, and once down there will have the resident turn switches off and on, run water or bang pipes, while their accomplice searches the house for valuables. Teller points out that legitimate utility company employees will always wear a uniform and have official identification, and impostors may try to look official. “Many impostors will have a homemade, laminated badge that you could confuse for proper ID at a quick glance,” Teller said. “They may also wear work clothes, orange traffic vests or hard hats. All of this is designed to make you think they are official. “Don’t let them in your house and don’t let them lure you out of yours. If in doubt, ask them to wait outside your locked front door while you call the utility company or the police to verify who they are. A legitimate utility company employee will welcome your checking them out, while an impostor won’t hang around.”
Home repair scam
Another door-to-door con that is happening with great frequency is the driveway sealing or home repair scam, in which one or two men in a truck stop and offer to seal one’s driveway, fix the roof or do other repairs at an unusually low price because they have been working in the area and have leftover materials available to do the job. A red flag with this scam is that the con artists will typically say the job will be cheaper if you pay cash. Teller said it’s often done poorly and costs more than they say at the outset, and that the scammers will watch where you go to get your cash and often make a return visit, sometimes in the form of a utility scam, to get more money. Another thing to watch for is children tagging along with the worker. They may be trained to ask for a drink or to use the bathroom and then rummage through the house looking for valuables or cash. “The bottom line is if something looks suspicious and seems too good to be true, it most likely is,” Teller said.
The sweetheart swindle
Nothing may be too good to be true more

than the sweetheart swindle, in which the victim, typically an older single male, is approached somewhere in public — such as a supermarket parking lot — by a younger, attractive female. The scammer will attempt to flatter the victim, win him over, arrange a second meeting, and lay the foundation for a relationship. Once the relationship begins, the scammer will ask the victim for money to start a business or pay medical bills, and in some cases move in and take over financial affairs. “The attention from this younger woman is great while it is happening,” Teller said, “but as soon as your credit cards are charged to the max and your money is completely gone, so are they. You will be left lonely and broke.” Teller said it is wise to be aware of ulterior motives when someone tries to strike up a relationship out of nowhere and to ask a trusted friend or adviser their honest opinion of what is happening if you are getting an undue amount of attention. According to the National Association of Adult Protective Services Administrators, financial exploitation of the elderly is the fastest-rising category of crime in the U.S.

Prompted by a “D” rating of its website from the Sunshine Review, the Douglas County School District enhanced its site and upped its grade to an A-minus. “We value transparency and we have made it a priority for our board,” DCSD Board of Education President John Carson said in a press release. “We’re very proud of student achievement, staff accomplishments, financial stability, and strong management and we want our community to know it.” Sunshine Review is a website transparency report card that ranks cities, counties and school districts nationwide. DCSD’s previous rating was the lowest among the state’s 10 largest school districts; its new grade bumps it to a three-way tie for top honors with the Denver and Jefferson County school districts. Board members said during a March 14 meeting that they were surprised and concerned by the rating and believed they could take steps to improve it. DCSD was criticized for not providing contact information for its board members, and it since has added email addresses for each elected official. Sunshine Review also dinged it for not posting contracts and bids over $10,000; those also have been added to the website. DCSD added financial and budget information, including links to videos offering further details. “We are proud of our A- rating and will continue to improve transparency throughout the district,”
Carson said in the press release. Strong Schools Coalition, a grassroots group led by former DCSD spokeswoman and parent Susan Meek and parent Laura Mutton, praised the district for making some changes. The group has been critical of the district’s transparency. “However, we still cannot find a detailed 2012-13 financial plan and budget, the infrastructure cost of their pay-for-performance system is still unknown, and the board’s practice of spending close to half of public meeting times in private executive session is not reflected by this rating,” Mutton said. Sunshine Review managing editor Kristin McMurray noted that the lengthy executive sessions, while mentioned as a “bad” in the review, aren’t among the factors considered in evaluating website transparency. “Technically what we look for is three years of meeting minutes,” she said. “We’re only evaluating their website. We’re not evaluating their transparency or requests for open records.” McMurray said DCSD spokeswoman Cinamon Watson contacted her to do a re-review. “It’s our policy to rereview websites anytime a government official or citizen requests that,” she said. Sunshine Review is a wiki-page, which allows anyone with an Internet connection to edit or contribute information. While most of the information added to DCSD’s transparency evaluation came from McMurray and reporter Alex Keown, some was posted anonymously from an IP address that traces to Third and Cantril streets in Castle Rock. McMurray said the anonymous edits are researched, verified and, if found to be inaccurate, removed.

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Interest rates are beginning to make the slow creep up, prices are climbing quickly and houses are selling at a much faster rate. “We’re starting to see signs that the market is shifting to a seller’s market,” said Sean Reilly, a Highlands Ranchbased real estate agent with Cherry Creek Properties. According to Metrolist, Douglas County homes sold for an average of $338,239 through the first two months of 2012, a price point that has jumped to $364,978 in early 2013, while sales have climbed 33.6 percent and inventory has stayed relatively the same.
“Inventory is the key right now,” Reilly said. “That’s what is driving the prices upward and creating the shift. There’s not a whole lot to look at out there. “When the market crashed in 2008, inventory started coming off the market and more and more people made the choice to rent. About a year, year and a half ago those renters started to get off the fence and that’s been driving those prices.” The number of new listings has only climbed 2.2 percent in the first two months of 2013, compared to a year ago in Douglas County, and if the inventory doesn’t come back a little harder as summer arrives, the 17-year real-estate vet says it is going to be
harder and harder for those looking to find a home as more buyers flood the market. Reilly has already seen the change with his own listings, watching a recent one in Highlands Ranch accumulate 27 showings in five days before coming off the market, and a downtown listing amass over 50 showings in a day’s time. “You’ve got a glut of buyers on the market that are bidding over half the inventory that was out there before,” he said. “In years past, the number of available homes just coming on was easily been between 2,500 and 3,000 in Douglas County.” For the first two months of this year, that number is at 1,280.
Abandoned: ‘We couldn’t do it without volunteers’ Abandoned continues from Page 1
referrals from the juvenile courts and special-needs adults looking for a project. Most of the volunteers come to the rescue in the rural-residential Sierra Vista subdivision without knowing a thing about how to take care of farm animals. By the time they leave, they are skilled at cleaning, brushing and feeding a variety of animals. “We couldn’t do it without volunteers,” Lynda Edwards says. One volunteer, in particular, has dedicated herself to the no-kill shelter. Diane Ham, known to Edwards as “the fowl lady,” arrived two years ago and has since come nearly every morning to pitch in where she is needed. Ham didn’t know anything about taking care of birds, but learned how to nurse the ducks, turkeys, hens and roosters back to health through research and
hands-on experience. Ham has become part of the extended family. “I feel at home here,” she said. The volunteers are quickly introduced to the colorful cast of barnyard characters. Millie, an overly friendly llama, likes to dole out lip-smacking smooches. Goldie and Dealer, two aging horses, sniff wildly at visitors and tag along out of sheer curiosity. And Pancake, an ornery and authoritative goat, runs the yard by welcoming people with repeated head butts. Edwards even gives out certificates to victims who survive Pancake’s “special loving.” The Edwards Foundation for Rescued Animals was created about six years ago after John Edwards, a retiree seeking to spend his added free time wisely, began volunteering at different animal-related venues each day. He eventually brought his work home with him and the nonprofit rescue quickly grew. The Edwardses planned
to focus on large animals, but couldn’t say no to the smaller ones. “We don’t like to take in cats or dogs,” Lynda Edwards says with a wry laugh as Sam, a pup from the Dumb Friends League, scurries at her feet. Three feet from Sam is a black kitten comfortably bathing himself on a cushioned chair. Just a few weeks before, he was found abandoned underneath a trash bin at a local Starbucks and was brought in with open arms. Things aren’t always easy. The poor economy caused many volunteers to find paying jobs and the price of hay has skyrocketed, leading to more abandoned horses and higher costs for the rescue. And in an effort to find permanent homes for as many animals as possible, the foundation doesn’t charge an adoption fee. It relies heavily on donations.

Library: Committee to submit recommendation to board Library continues from Page 1
am that the word `politics’ is being thrown around in this issue,” Repella said. “This is about governance to me. It is a very large budget of taxpayer dollars. If something goes wrong, I ask who’s responsible. “Ideally a separate government should be an elected body,” she said. “This is the only connection to an elected body the citizens have. We are taking it from a weak link to a stronger link.” The commissioners’ solution was to create the two-commissioner nomination committee for a trustee nomination. The committee will submit its recommendation to the three-mem-
ber board of county commissioners for ratification. The commissioners’ resolution was designed to mirror the provisions allowed in state statute, said county spokeswoman Wendy Holmes. The prevailing concern was that its effect could change the future of the library district. “The library board of trustees doesn’t need fixing,” said Carla Turner of Larkspur. “There is no evidence that a change in protocol or procedure is going to add any value to the process or improve the number one library in the nation.” Commissioner Jack Hilbert, who in past weeks expressed discontent
with the controversial viewpoints expressed by library director Jamie LaRue, made no comments at the March 26 public hearing. LaRue’s wife, Suzanne LaRue, pointed out the positive gains made at the district, despite adverse economic conditions. “We have gotten through the recession in a manner that is the envy of every library in the country,” LaRue said. “Even libraries in Arapahoe County and Denver are laying off people. We have services that serve the needs of everyone. I think (commissioners) should investigate the library’s board and how they do things in the selection process and see there is nothing shady going on there.”

opinions / yours and ours
some friends are always there for you Three of my best friends are appliances. The washing machine, the dryer, and the dishwasher. I have thought about this. They’re dependable, focused, and they’re always on time. They leave me alone when I want to be left alone, and when I need them, they are Johnny-on-the-spot, especially the washing machine. I do a good job of spotting my shirts with salad dressing, and the washing machine is always on standby. I can call on them any time of day or night I look forward to doing my laundry, and I look forward to doing my dishes. But it wasn’t always this way. When I went away to college and got my first apartment, I didn’t have any appliances, other than a hot plate, and a refrigerator that sounded like Charles Laughton. I hand-washed the dishes. And I had to take all of my laundry to something called a laundromat, also called “washaterias.” The laundromats were uniformly heinous. If you’ve ever had to use one, you know what I mean. I could spend half of my col-
umn allowance on laundromats, but please do me a favor, and just reminisce about them, so I can get back to my three friends. Hand-washing the dishes wasn’t much fun, so the pots and pans and plates waited on the tarmac, sometimes for days. I will admit to weeks. I would just rinse what I needed. Not any more. I run the dishwasher about every other day. And the washer and dryer too. I like to do laundry. Thundercats, I’ll do yours. I am going to try my best to explain this. I am not always dependable, focused, and on time. I miss the off ramp. The signs say “push” and I pull. Like Dave Mathews said, I “fall aside, stumbling down drunken
question of the week
Should James Holmes face the death penalty? On March 27, accused Aurora theater shooter James Holmes offered to plead guilty to avoid the death penalty. The next
day, we asked people at Aspen Grove shopping center in Littleton how they felt about that.
“It’s not like jail is such a luxurious place … Killing him would just be ending that suffering.” — Melissa Jimenez, Littleton
“He killed a lot of people. He doesn’t deserve to live, even in jail.” — Faye Hershey, Littleton
“I don’t have any remorse about him being put to death, but I think the way the death penalty works is inefficient and a waste of money.” — Paul Raemer, Centennial
“I think the prosecutors ought to take his offer and get the whole thing over with rapidly and relatively inexpensively.” — Richard Hershey, Littleton
uncomplicating the complicated Lately I have found myself in conversations with people about how complicated their lives have become, or how complex situations at work or at home have created a feeling of being uptight or stressed out. So how do we simplify the complicated? Well, the first thing we need to do is understand that nothing is ever as difficult or as bad as it seems, and that panic truly is our worst enemy. And we also need to remind ourselves that all will be well. Situations become more convoluted and problematic when we allow the imagery of the worst-case scenario to worry us and erode our hope or positive outlook. The longer we dwell on the possibility that things will go bad, the more the situation will appear even more complicated. The second thing we can do is determine what we believe would be the best possible outcome. When we can begin with the end in mind, we start to see the light at the end of the tunnel. So in the first step we eliminate the negative or pessimistic thoughts and in step two we acknowledge and see the potential best-case scenario. We replace the negative input with positive output. The third and final tip I can share with you is to do some healthy and creative destruction of the situation. Peel the layers back and pick the problem apart piece by piece. When things become complicated it means that there are many events, moving parts, circumstances, people, or situations coming together to create confusion and maybe even chaos. When we try and attack the entire problem it can seem overwhelming or too much to overcome, so we ignore it hoping that it will go away or fix itself. And our avoidance behavior only compounds an already complicated situation. So what works better is to dissect the
roads, I find myself more and more mistaking myself for someone else.” Washing machines don’t stumble. That’s why I like mine. I can program it, and it sticks to the program. I don’t stick to the program, so I admire anyone or anything that can. Keep this under your hat. I’ll do a load of laundry just before bedtime just so that I can hear the washing machine going through its cycles, directly below me. One day the builder’s grade dishwasher that came with the house decided to explode. A repairman arrived and on his way up the driveway asked what kind it was. When I told him, he turned, said, “Get a new one, buddy,” and left. I have wood flooring and the explosion damaged the wood. I had to vacate for three days while it was sanded and refinished. I went to Mesa Verde and listened to the guide. There was no mention of appliances. The Anasazi did not have Maytag. Maybe I wouldn’t like to do laundry as much as I do if I had a family, and had to get the stains out of Craig Jr.’s Old Navy

Afghanistan — ‘the wrong war’ In 2007, when then-Sen. Barack Obama began his campaign for the Democratic nomination for president, his signature issue was his opposition to the war in Iraq. This well positioned him against his chief rival, Sen. Hillary Clinton, who in 2002 had voted in favor of going to war. Obama wasn’t elected to the U.S. Senate until 2004, so he had the good political fortune of not having cast a vote for or against the Iraq War. During the 2008 presidential primary, Obama campaigned heavily against the unpopular war in Iraq by criticizing the Bush administration’s decision to invade the country based on their allegations that Saddam Hussein posed an imminent threat to U.S. national security interest. The Bush administration’s rationale for the invasion was that Saddam Hussein presented an imminent threat because he was developing weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in clear violation of the 1991
cease-fire agreement that ended the first Gulf War. Following an exhaustive search by coalition forces in post-invasion Iraq, the alleged Iraqi stockpiles of WMD never materialized. While Obama criticized the U.S. intervention in Iraq as the “wrong war,” he praised our involvement in Afghanistan as being the “right war” for our country to prosecute. This was because our involvement was justified by the World Trade Center attack on 9/11, which planned and Coffman continues on Page 9

complication into manageable components, compartmentalize the elements causing the difficulties, and develop a plan to address each one. When we take this approach, that light at the end of our tunnel becomes brighter, and with each element or compartment that we sort through and fix, the light gets even brighter, the end of the tunnel closer, and our confidence soars as we prepare to take on the remaining elements. There is nothing that is so overly complicated that it cannot become uncomplicated by approaching it with a positive, constructive and productive attitude and a solid plan. If we choose to look at the complications in our life as something that is in our control instead out of our control, we will significantly increase our chances of simplifying the chaos and associated burdens of the complication. Are you facing a complicated situation that may seem overwhelming? I encourage you to practice the tactical approach outlined here in this column and let me know if it helped at gotonorton@gmail.com. When we can uncomplicate the complicated, it will be a better than good week.
jeans. Here’s another thing: I fold. I am one hell of a folder. I can fold a hand towel like a trained hand towel folder. That goes for bath towels and sheet towels. Whatever it is about fulfilling certain tasks that have a beginning, middle, and end, it feels good. I have made some kind of progress on a day when maybe otherwise I have drifted, or overworked a painting, or faltered with a column. My first college apartment was managed by Sam Sing and Jon Wong, who operated a little laundry on Sawtelle Boulevard in West Los Angeles. I had them do my shirts, light starch. They came back to me, folded impeccably, with a cardboard insert, and a paper ribbon around them. Laundry can be very beautiful. Maybe I like to do laundry simply because I succeed with it.

Town extends water restriction season Workshop alumni allowed to bypass 3-day-per-week limit By Rhonda Moore
rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com With drought conditions in the forecast, the town of Castle Rock made changes to its water management plan for the 2013 summer season. Town council on March 19 approved revised water restrictions to extend conservation efforts through September. The extra month of restrictions reduces demand at a time when Colorado’s climate reaches its hottest, driest condition, according to the town’s water department.
In addition to the extended restriction season, Castle Rock will extend the prohibited watering window one hour each day and shift the evening watering window to a time later in the day. “We want the temperatures to cool down and wind to die down before we start watering,” said Heather Beasley, water resources manager. “We are anticipating going into a second year of drought in Colorado and anticipating a tough, hot, dry summer.” In addition to the extra month of restrictions, Castle Rock consumers will be restricted to watering three days per week. Exempt from the three-day restriction are residents who take part in the town’s Water Wiser workshops. “If you participate in the town’s Water Wiser program you can irrigate on any of the days but you’re still restricted to watering times,” Beasley said. “It allows you to

Through hands-on demonstrations and displays, attendees learn to conserve water and still have a beautiful yard. Learn how to apply water by taking advantage of the “7 Steps of Xeriscape”; how to detect water waste and how to improve an irrigation system. After the workshop, attendees will earn a “Water Wiser” designation and be exempt from the every-third-day watering schedule. All workshops are free, but reservations are required and workshops fill up quickly. All workshops opened for registration on March 30. For more about water conservation in Castle Rock, visit www.crconserve.com. bypass the three-day-a-week restriction.” Residential restrictions include: Evening watering hours for residential
customers are from 6 to 11 p.m., rather than 5 to 10 p.m. The watering window for nonresidential customers remains unchanged. The morning watering window also remains unchanged, from 5 a.m. to 10 a.m. The daytime no-watering window was extended one hour and will be from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Watering restrictions are in effect from June 1 through September 30. The every-third-day schedule remains in effect. Residents can expect to receive their 2013 watering schedule in the mail by approximately May 1.

Castle Rock hires new utilities director By Rhonda Moore
rmoore@ourcoloradonews.com Castle Rock welcomed a new utilities director in the form of Mark Marlowe, who was selected from among 55 applicants. As director, Marlowe will preside over the town’s water, wastewater and storm water divisions, and will oversee Castle Rock’s long-term water efforts Marlowe has more than 15 years of experience in utilities, including 10 years at his most recent post with Dalton Utilities in Georgia. He most recently served as senior vice president over water, wastewater and storm water services, according to a press release announcing his arrival. He began work the last week of
March and will be joined in Castle Rock after the end of the school year by his wife and two children. “Laura and I cannot wait to get involved in the Castle Rock community,” Marlowe said. Marlowe will serve town council as it continues to pursue longterm water options, Marlowe including review of the WISE agreement. He has previously worked on cooperative water issues as chairman of the North Georgia Water Resources Partnership. He is a licensed professional engineer and holds bachelor’s degrees in
math, Russian and civil engineering and a master’s degree in environmental engineering. “Mark is intelligent and detail-oriented, yet very comfortable with the big picture,” said Mark Stevens, town manager. “He is engaging, a strong communicator and a quick study. We are confident he will be able to hit the ground running.” Marlowe replaces Ron Redd, who in December 2012 took the job as manager of the Parker Water & Sanitation District, after 11 years as Castle Rock’s utilities director. Marlowe was scheduled to be formally introduced as utilities director at the April 2 town council meeting. Learn more about Castle Rock water and utilities at www.crgov.com/water.

Coffman: Policy must be more realistic Coffman continues from Page 8
here! coordinated al-Qaeda in their safe Sheaharbor in Afghanistan given them by officethe Taliban. Rock However, it is my contention that Afghanistan was never the “right war” for our country to be so deeply involved in. No doubt, the initial actions of the Bush administration in Afghanistan were brilliant. Shortly following the 9/11 attack, air, advisory and logistical support was given to the anti-Taliban forces, the Northern Alliance, who successfully fought the Taliban and were able to push them and al-Qaeda allies completely out of their country. The United States had an extraordinary opportunity at that moment to say to the victors on the ground that so long as they keep Afghanistan from becoming another breeding ground for terrorism, we would continue to provide support to them. We also would have been in a position to
encourage them to expand their governing coalition to better reflect the ethnic and religious composition of the country and to improve the status of women in their society. Unfortunately, the Bush administration made a terrible and costly mistake. Instead of saying to the victors on the ground that we will support you so long as you keep alQaeda and the Taliban from returning to Afghanistan, we forced them aside and superimposed a political process over the country that gave them the government that we wanted them to have without regard to the political culture of the Afghan people. The Bush administration had an opportunity to achieve our security goals in Afghanistan without the extraordinary cost to our military that has been paid in blood: over 2,000 dead and so many more wounded. This year alone, the cost to U.S. taxpayers for all Afghanistan-related

We must maintain strong conventional forces to deter those who otherwise would wish to attack us and support indigenous factions within a given region that share our security goals instead of invading, pacifying and administering whole countries under the impossible goal of trying to make them look like us.

Business of the Month VCA Douglas County Animal Hospital
Michael Likens, Chamber Chair-elect, proudly presents the Chamber’s Business of the Month Award to Terry Shand and her staff as Chamber Ambassadors and Chamber staff show their support.
The Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce recently announced its March recipient for Business of the Month — VCA Douglas County Animal Hospital. VCA Douglas County Animal Hospital has been a part of the Castle Rock community for nearly 30 years and proud members of the Chamber for more than 26 years. What began as a small family owned practice now employs almost 50 staff members and is the only 24 hour Emergency, General Practice, and Specialty Hospital in the city. Although it may seem large, you’ll find that the doctors and staff are committed to providing each patient with the highest level of compassionate care. With a desire to help those pets who were in desperate need of medical attention around the clock, the 24 hour ER service was expanded in 2004 to 24 hours a day, 365 day a year. Because they understand that your pet holds a valued place in your heart VCA Douglas County Animal Hospital has voluntarily chosen to go through the process of becoming accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA). Although accreditation is required for human hospitals, it is voluntary for animal hospitals. To be accredited by AAHA, a veterinary hospital must demonstrate an exceptional level of medical care and client service by meeting or exceeding over 900 industry standards. Only 15% of veterinary hospitals in the United States and Canada are AAHA accredited, and VCA Douglas County is one of them! To further their commitment to providing the most advanced care available for your pet, the hospital has expanded their services even further by bringing on two board certified radiologists who join their board certified surgeon, and in April a cardiologist will also come on board. The team at VCA Douglas County Animal Hospital is dedicated to providing their clients and patients a lifetime of compassionate care. To learn more visit vcadouglascounty.com. Congratulations from the Castle Rock Chamber for being recognized as an outstanding business.

Eco-friendly landscape is low-maintenance Gardening expert’s plan can pay off By Melinda Myers info@melindamyers.com
I
t’s possible to create a beautiful landscape and be kind to the environment even with a busy schedule and while staying within budget. All it takes is a bit of planning and a few low-maintenance strategies. Here are five strategies to create a low-maintenance ecofriendly landscape this season. • Be water-wise: Save money on the water bill, time spent watering and this precious resource, water. Start by growing drought-tolerant plants suited to your growing environment. Once established they will only need watering during extended dry spells. Mulch with shredded leaves, evergreen needles, wood chips, or other organic matter to conserve moisture, reduce weeds, and improve the soil as they decompose. Fertilize with a low nitrogen fertilizer, like Milorganite, that promotes slow steady growth instead of excessive greenery that requires more water. Plus, it won’t burn even during drought.
Courtesyphoto • Recycle yard waste in the landscape: Minimize the amount of yard waste produced, reuse what can be in other areas of the landscape and recycle the rest as compost. These are just a few strategies that will save time bagging, hauling, and disposing of yard debris. And better yet, implementing this strategy will save money and time spent buying and transporting soil amendments, since it will be created right in the backyard. Start by leaving grass clippings on the lawn. The short clippings break down quickly, adding organic matter, nutrients and moisture to the soil. Grow trees suited to the growing con-
ditions and available space. That means less pruning and fewer trimmings that will need to be managed. • Make compost at home: Recycle yard waste into compost. Put plant waste into a heap and let it rot. Yes, it really is that simple. The more effort put into the process, the quicker the results. Do not add insect-infested or diseased plant material or perennial weeds like quack grass, annual weeds gone to seed, or invasive plants. Most compost piles are not hot enough to kill these pests. And do not add meat, dairy, or bones that can attract rodents. • Manage pests in harmony
with nature: A healthy plant is the best defense against insects and disease. Select the most pestresistant plants suited to the growing conditions and provide proper care. Check plants regularly throughout the growing season. It is easier to control a few insects than the hundreds that can develop in a week or two. And when problems arise, look for the most eco-friendly control. Start by removing small infestations by hand. Consider traps, barriers, and natural products if further control is needed. And as always be sure to read and follow label directions carefully. • Use energy-wise landscape design: Use landscape plantings to keep homes warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. Homes will have a more comfortable temperature throughout the seasons and energy costs will be reduced. Plant trees on the east and west side of a house to shade windows in the summer and let the sun shine in and warm it up through the south-facing windows in winter. Shade air conditioners, so they run more efficiently. Incorporate these changes into gardening routines and hab-
its over time. Soon these and many more strategies that help save time and money while being kind to the environment will seem to occur automatically.

However, the U.S. Census Bureau thanestimates that more than 3 million HVAC iencesystems fail each year.

three months or at the beginning of every heating and cooling season. Ensure the filter is sized correctly, fitting snuggly. • Keep the outdoor unit clean: Keep coils free of debris by hosing off with light pressure. Any bushes or shrubs should be trimmed back away from the unit. • Let air flow: Maintain a reliable airflow to reduce moisture buildup that can lead to mold. Keep vents open. Similarly, keep internal doors open inside your home to maintain air flow. • Clean duct grills: Annually, clean the vents and grills at the opening of each duct in every room by lifting the grill out of the floor, wiping with a rag or vacuuming to remove dust and debris. • Keep condensate drain open: A stopped-up condensate line can lead to expensive water damage. Keep the drain line clean and the drain tube open and clear to prevent backup. Good maintenance will only get you so far. Eventually, your equipment will need to be replaced. Hire only a certified A/C technician you trust. This season, keep your cool. Take the time to maintain, repair and replace your A/C equipment when necessary.

Tips help cut water use By Colorado Nursery & Greenhouse Association info@coloradonga.org
W
ith spring snowstorms followed by 60-degree days, you know it’s time to start thinking about getting outside and into the garden. This winter has been a tricky one and by now we’ve all heard the word — drought — but that doesn’t mean it’s time to throw in the trowel. Whether you’re into turf, trees, shrubs, flowers or edibles, following a few key principles can help yield a beautiful, bountiful landscape using less water. Even the most experienced gardeners often confuse xeriscapes with zeroscapes. Zeroscapes imply no landscape and that’s a very bad thing for everyone. Beautiful landscaping does more than just look pretty, it also increases property values, reduces energy consumption, produces oxygen and even absorbs carbon dioxide. So what is xeriscape? Xeriscape is actually a set of planting principles that can help you create attractive, sustainable, and water-efficient landscapes using these
seven basic and sound horticultural practices. • Plan and design landscaping comprehensively. • Evaluate soil and improve if necessary. Amending soil increases water retention. • Create practical turf areas. The front lawns of eight houses have the cooling effect of about 70 tons of air conditioning. • Select plants with similar needs and group them accordingly in the landscape. • Water efficiently with a properly designed irrigation system. • Use organic mulches to reduce surface evaporation of water and minimize weeds. • Practice appropriate landscape maintenance. Remember, even in drought years, landscaping can add as much as 15 percent to the resale value of your home. So dust off your gloves, put these principles to work and see for yourself that a beautiful landscape and water-wise conservation can in fact live in harmony.

HomeSmart Realty Group 13111 E. Briarwood Ave. Ste 110 Centennial, CO 80112 direct: 720 633-2505 Fax: (303) 595-5275 Email: Landon_Smith@mac.com hs0017.homesmartagent.com/sites/35377N Where were you born? Houston, TX How long have you lived in the area? 3 and a half years
How long have you worked in Real Estate? 2 years What is your specialty and what does that mean for the people you work with? I specialize with first time homebuyers and investors. I love working with first time homebuyers because I know exactly what it’s like to be one in this market. I can relate to the nervousness, excitement, and challenges of buying a home for the first time. It’s nice to honestly say, “I know how you feel” to my clients, and help them purchase their first home. As far as investors are concerned, I’ve always been a “deal finder”. At times, my wife refers to this as “cheap”, but it has worked out well for this business! What is the most challenging part of what you do? I love what I do, so I typically work seven days a week. I think the most chal challenging part of this job is learn learn-
What do you most enjoy doing when you are not working? My wife and I love to get away to random places for a couple days once a month. I was also full-time recording artist for 6 years before I got into real estate. I still travel about once a month to play a show somewhere, and spend most of my free time recording or writing music. What is one tip you have for someone looking to sell a house? Remember that you and your agent are on the same team. What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy a house? You want to be as informed as possible, so never hesitate to ask your agent a question. We work for YOU. What is the most unusual thing you’ve encountered while working in Real Estate? I found a property listed for $29,000 and sent it to one of my investors. The MLS description said there was mild fire damage, and “enter at your own risk”. We met at the property, and when we walked to the front door, there was a very strange smell. When we opened the door, the entire living room was full of decaying birds and rabbits. It was the worst smell ever, and we both thought we were going to pass out. That said, we did make an offer.
WE BELIEVE ENERGY STAR IS JUST A STARTING POINT.

Best price when selling a home
Curb appeal is one factor that can help a home sell faster and for more money.
T
he housing market has not yet rebounded to pre-recession prices, when buyers seemed to be stepping over one another to bid up the price of homes. Today’s sellers may be lucky to get asking price, with the reality being a certain percentage below. However, that doesn’t mean sellers should accept bottom-of-the-barrel of-
fers. There are still ways to get the best price possible on an offered home. With sellers hoping to get the most possible for a home and buyers interested in spending the least, it’s sometimes a battle of wills when it comes to hashing out a confirmed price in the world of real estate. Sellers who wonder whether they’ll struggle to get a
good offer can hedge their bets in the right direction by employing a few strategies. * What you see is what you get: It’s difficult to change first impressions. If a potential buyer pulls up to a home that doesn’t give them “warm and fuzzy” feelings immediately, it may be hard to eventually sway opinion of the home -- even if it’s pristine on the inside. Individu-
als do judge a book by its cover, which means that effort should be put into making a home’s exterior as appealing as possible. Landscaping should be neat and lush. There shouldn’t be any obstacles leading to the front of the home. Items that look in disrepair should be mended. Curb appeal does matter. * Use a real estate agent: Many people forgo this step, thinking they can sell their home just as well without an agent and not have to pay commission in the process. A real estate agent is schooled in the process of negotiating the price of an offered home. In fact, the more a home’s selling price, the higher the agent’s profit. That’s incentive right there. Furthermore, agents know the average prices of similar homes and can help a seller price and market a property correctly. That may add up to a faster sale (and a better offer). * Price it competitively: Some sellers think the higher they price their home the more money they’ll get for it. The fact is, the longer an overpriced home sits on the market, the less appealing it will appear to buyers. Individuals looking for a home may repeatedly see the listing and wonder what’s wrong with the home. Even if it’s the best home in the neighborhood, it may be seen
as a red flag that’s best avoided. * Give people what they want: Buyers often prefer updated kitchens and bathrooms. Most buyers out there are not looking for “handyman specials.” They want a relatively turn-key property. A kitchen or bathroom that is an eyesore can repel potential buyers. Home shoppers may be more inclined to go closer to asking price if some of the bigger-ticket items are already completed. * Don’t be an open book: If a buyer knows that time is of the essence or the home is “priced to sell,” he or she may sense that desperation, almost guaranteeing a low-ball offer. Sellers shouldn’t let on too much about their reasons for selling or make it seem like they’ll be in dire straights if the home doesn’t sell quickly. Selling a home under duress is not likely to cause prospective buyers to pony up. * Don’t be afraid to counter-offer: A buyer who is excited to get an offer on a home in a slow market, but feels the offer is below value, should definitely counter-offer. While the buyer may not accept the counter, he or she may make another offer that is more to the seller’s liking. ■ Metro Creative Services

Before she says ‘i do’ Bridal Show offers unique workshops By Ryan Boldrey
rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Before any bride walks down the aisle there is a lot of work that needs to be done. First she needs to find an aisle to walk down, an officiant to perform the ceremony, a florist, a photographer, a reception hall, someone to take care of the music. And of course, no one will come if she doesn’t pick out some invitations and put them in the mail or have a place to hold the reception. Lucky for those brides to be, there’s a one-stop shop where every one of those things can be lined up — the Highlands Ranch Bridal Show. The first-year show, scheduled for noon4 p.m. April 7 at the Hilton Garden Inn, 1050 Plaza Drive in Highlands Ranch, will feature 32 local wedding vendors from bakeries to

There will even be a chocolate fountain and a masseuse on site to help relieve the stress behind the decision-making. What sets the show apart, though, according to Hilton Garden manager Karly Stein, are the workshops that will be put on by Denver-based business Beyond the Bedroom throughout the day. “I’m pretty excited about Beyond the Bedroom,” Stein said. “It’s unique to a
bridal show. They will be conducting relationship workshops, and will even have one called `How not to dance for your wedding,’ which we thought was important because a lot of brides and grooms don’t see the importance of that.” Beyond the message of keeping the more intimate movements between husband and wife for the honeymoon and off the dance floor, there will also be half-hour workshops on “Hair tips and tricks for your wedding photography,” “Looking picture perfect on your wedding day,” “The little details in planning your wedding,” “Love languages for you and your partner,” “Honeymoon travel planning 101,” and “Vegas Stiletto Fitness.” Event admission is $5 and the first 100 brides who RSVP will get a swag bag that includes goodies from vendors such as travel vouchers for honeymoons and more.

‘New york Nights’ coming up at PACE Wind ensemble joins with students for concert
if you go “New York Nights” is at the PACE Center, 20000 Pikes Peak Ave., Parker, at 7:30 p.m. on April 5. Tickets: $21.50 to $13.50, 303805-6800, pacecenteronline.ticketforce. com.

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Parker will get a taste of the Big Apple with the upcoming “New York Nights” concert by the Colorado Wind Ensemble. The ensemble, a 45-member metro-area orchestra of woodwinds, brass and percussion, is one of The Parker Arts, Culture and Events Center’s performing partners and plays there several times a year. The ensemble’s main home is Littleton United Methodist Church, but it also travels west to the Lakewood Cultural Center a couple of times a year, building its audience. The CWE will perform “New York Nights” at PACE Center at 7:30 p.m. April 5. Students from
Colorado Wind Ensemble’s Darren DeLaub will perform a tuba tango. Courtesy photo Douglas County schools who study with orchestra members will join the ensemble for this concert. Most of the member musicians have music degrees and many teach. Matthew Roeder is director.
Innovative contemporary composers like to write for wind ensembles, according to orchestra publicist Ellen Christianson, so the audience may hear music they haven’t heard previously . The program opens with
familiar music, though: Symphonic dances from Leonard Bernstein’s “West Side Story,” arranged by Lavender. “Red Cape Tango” from Michael Daugherty’s “Metropolis Symphony” follows, then Jeff Tyzik’s “New York Cityscape” will feature a tango tuba solo. Robert Beaser’s “Manhattan Roll” and Clifton Williams’ “Symphonic Dance No. 3” fill out the evening’s program. This versatile orchestra is playing its 31st season in the south metro area, presenting music that especially features each instrument. Guest conductors for the CWE will be Nick Bidinger and Jayne Copland.
If you’ve ever wanted to travel on a weight-loss journey in front of millions of folks on TV, your chance is coming up. Eyeworks USA, the producers of the hit series “Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition,” is beginning a nationwide tour to 13 cities — including Denver — in search of participants for season four of the weekly show. Candidates are invited to either attend an open call in one of the cities or send in a home tape. “Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition” features transformational specialist Chris Powell, author of the New York Times bestseller “Choose to Lose.” Powell documents the amazing makeover of 15 courageous “super obese” people who have 365 days to safely lose up to half their body weight. Powell provides a fresh perspective to individuals whose lives have become unmanageable because of their weight. He guides each of the participants through a transformation process by moving into each person’s home. The Denver open casting call takes place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. April 13 at Toby Keith’s I Love This Bar and Grill, 8260 Northfield Blvd., #1370, Denver. Information on how to apply can be found on the official casting website at www.extrememakeovercasting.com. Casting call attendees should bring a nonreturnable photo.
Southern comfort
Southern Hospitality, the much-ballyhooed eatery that opened with barely a whisper recently, is a delightful and casual entrant into the downtown Denver restaurant scene. A gal pal and I checked it out last week, and I can’t wait to bring back Mr. On the Town, a Southern-fried food freak. The restaurant, at 1433 17th St., arrived among a plethora of press because of its New York roots with original investor, entertainment superstar Justin Timberlake, who since has sold his interest. But the Denver location is backed by Ryan Tedder, lead singer of OneRepublic and a Colorado native. Celebrity buzz aside, we found some solid Southern comfort with the service and the fare. Some of what we sampled were crispy buffalo shrimp, crispy fried pickles, Southern fried chicken and roasted corn. No room for the much-lauded banana pudding or “grandma’s bourbon pecan pie.” Southern Hospitality is known for its extensive whiskey and bourbon selection, but since I don’t drink brown, I was perfectly happy with a vodka and soda. Great place to drop into or go on the website for a reservation: www.shdenver. com. Hours are 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. daily.
Game day Grill grub
Vesta Dipping Grill wants to “take you out to the ballgame” (so to speak) beginning April 5 when baseball fans will have another alternative for food on the way to Coors Field. Vesta’s Pre-Game Pop-Ups will feature Korean BBQ Rib Sandwiches ($6) and Fresh Fruit Cups ($4) sweetened with agave syrup and chili lime. Other specials may “pop-up” throughout the season as well. The concept is the brainchild of Chef Brandon Foster, who says he wanted to Parker continues on Page 20

South Metro Denver SBDC Hosts Intensive 10-week Business Planning Course
This spring the South Metro Denver Small Business Development Center (SBDC) will again offer an intensive business planning course for entrepreneurs. The Colorado Leading Edge will present the NxLeveL® Entrepreneurial Training Program; a course designed for entrepreneurs who are currently in business seeking both knowledge and skills to grow their businesses. Participants graduate with a fully executed business plan, which might be a feasibility study, growth plan, or start-up plan. Cash prizes will be awarded for the best plans from generous grant matching sponsor, Colorado Business Bank. Both facilitators and participants rave about the course and its ability to help entrepreneurs get their new growth plans off the ground successfully. Jeannie Pershin, a partner at Romancing the Bean coffee shop in Littleton, was impressed with the course. “I’ve always concentrated on the operations side of the business and completing this program with my partner gave me new insight as to the total picture of our operation. They uncovered areas of our business practices that we hadn’t taken into account.” “The NxLeveL business planning course is a one-of-a-kind program for business owners who need to write or enhance their business plan in order to expand their business.
This 10-week course offers a safe place for entrepreneurs to learn and support each other on the path to completing a business plan. I have found this course adds to the success of the business by assisting entrepreneurs in getting capital, planning growth, or starting a new venture,” said Marcia McGilley, Executive Director of the South Metro Denver Small Business Development Center. Over 10 weeks the course will cover: • Planning & Research: Entrepreneurial Essentials • Organizational Matters: Management & Legal Structure • Marketing: Market Research, Analysis & Understanding • Advertising: Strategies, Tactics & Implementation • Financial Overview: Books, Records & Controls, Financial Planning • Managing Your Money: Cash Flow Projections, Budgets & Assumptions The course also features: • Guest speakers including accountants, attorneys and bankers • Networking opportunities • A comprehensive textbook, workbook and resource guide • Five hours of one-on-one business consulting from the South Metro Denver SBDC at no charge • Interaction with business loan officers at the Lender’s Panel • Special bonus sessions: Web site review, IBIS World Industry Research report, and Brandify Report The SBDC will be holding an informational seminar on the program on Thursday, April 4th and again on April 11th from 4:30 pm – 5:30 pm at the South Metro Denver Chamber Center, 2154 E. Commons Ave., Suite 324 in the
Streets at SouthGlenn Complex in Centennial. You’ll be able to meet and ask questions of the instructors and learn how this opportunity can benefit your business. The actual 10-week course will run from 6:00 to 9:30 pm on Wednesday evenings beginning April 17th through June 19th at the Chamber Center. Cost for the 10week course is $495 per person, $445 for South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce members and Colorado Business Bank customers with additional members of a registered organization able to take the course for an additional $250. A limited number of partial scholarships are available to business owners in need of financial assistance. NxLeveL™ is funded by Colorado Business Bank, the State of Colorado, and the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce.

Rock Canyon senior wins yearly award Lacrosse player Wilkins Dismuke led state in goals By Jim Benton
jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Wilkins Dismuke knows he has become a good lacrosse player because of all the attention he draws from opposing defenders. Dismuke, a senior at Rock Canyon High School who scored a state-leading 67 goals last spring, will be honored as the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame’s Boys High School Athlete of the Year April 18 at the Denver Marriott City Center. “Most of my success last year just came from having fun on the field,” Dismuke said. “The previous two years I was really worried about getting recruited. I was at a small school like Rock Canyon. I wasn’t really on the map or known nationwide by colleges so I felt I had to put up the numbers, the goals and assists, to get recognized.” He got recognized playing back East in a couple national tournaments, and prominent collegiate lacrosse power Johns Hopkins invited him to visit. He committed prior to his junior season to attend the Baltimore school, which has won nine NCAA titles and played in 18 NCAA championship games. “Making my verbal commitment to Johns Hopkins my sophomore summer going into my junior year, I knew I could relax, take it easy and have fun. I could focus on making the players around me every day in practice and games better, have fun and do what I like to do.” Dismuke, who was good at almost every sport he played as a youngster, has been a lacrosse standout ever since he started playing. As a freshman at Rock Canyon, he scored 48 goals and had 61 goals and 43 assists as a sophomore. He then added 67 goals and 20 assists last season. He has 15 goals in five games so far in the 2013 campaign. “Wilkins is an absolutely fantastic lacrosse player,” Rock Canyon coach Louis Goldin said. “He’s such a fierce competitor and has an extremely high IQ of the game. He is constantly honing his skills and is striving to get better. He’s coachable. He helps everyone on the team get better. He understands that this is not a one -man

Courtesy photo by Kevin Williams show.” Dismuke, the 6-foot-3, 175-pound lefthanded shooting attackman, showed his abilities and class in a recent game against Mullen, the state’s No. 4-ranked team at that time. Dismuke was hounded by Mustang defenders the entire game and not given much room to move, but he showed his skills at finishing around the net and dodging opponents by scoring six of the Jaguars’ eight goals in a two-goal loss. “I’ve noticed that throughout the years, it has gotten a little bit harder each year,” Dismuke said. “Last year and this year, I get locked off almost every game by every team where they just have one defenseman faceguarding me. It’s difficult to get the ball, and when I do get the ball they are always quick to slide and double-team me.
“I would say I sort of have a target on my back, but it’s nice that some of our other guys like our midfielders can jump in and help me out. Guys like Alexander Harlan, Colton Jackson and Liam Colter can step in and take the target off my back and I can score some goals here and there.” Dismuke and Rock Canyon, 3-2 and 2-0 in the Douglas County League standings, still have a lot of work ahead this season. “This year we have the most talent of any team Rock Canyon has had in the previous years,” Dismuke said. “I think we can do something special with the raw talent we have on the team. “It’s always been a goal of mine to lead the state in goals or points. I have led the state in goals the past two years. I’d really like to keep that up. Getting my assists up
is a big thing because that is going to help a lot when I get to college. And, just building up my physical stature, trying to get as big as I can before I get into college when I’ll be playing against college seniors.” Dismuke also had a plug for Colorado and the increased production of elite lacrosse talent in states in the western part of the United States. “I’d go out East with the Colorado Wild, 3d and with Colorado elite teams and the East Coast guys sort of have this mentality like lacrosse isn’t big out there and you don’t know what you’re doing,” he releated. “It’s awesome to beat some of those teams in the tournaments and put them in their place and show them we do have lacrosse out here in the West and it’s growing rapidly.”
Castle View’s townsend shines at track meet Rock Canyon runner on pace for strong season By Jim Benton
jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com BROOMFIELD — Castle View senior Tanner Townsend had a banner day with two individual victories last Saturday at the Broomfield Shootout track meet. The senior sprinter was the fastest in the 100-meter dash competition, with a time of 10.74 to edge Mountain Vista’s Ryan Rubley, who was timed in 11.1 seconds. Townsend, a senior who played football last fall as did Rubley, finished third in the 100 at last year’s Class 5A state meet with a
time of 10.76. Townsend also won the 200-meter dash last Saturday, recording a time of 21.72, with Rubley coming in second quickest at 22.25 and Rock Canyon senior Brian Goldberg fifth fastest at 22.48. “I’m right where I want to be,” Goldberg said. “I want to peak at the end of the season at state. So right now I’m on pace. I’m beating my times I had last year at this point so I’m happy about that.’ Ryan Morningstar of ThunderRidge ran the 400-meter dash while in the midst of high jump competition. The senior ran in the last and fastest 400-meter heat and wound up third with a time of 51.70. He then hustled back to the high jump but missed on his next three
jumps at 5-10 and wound up seventh. Two weeks ago, Morningstar jumped 6-2 to win the high jump event at the California Relays. Jack Lamb of Rock Canyon cleared 6-0 to finish fourth in the high jump event. “Yeah, I was a little tired,” said Morningstar. “I’ve been high jumping since I was little so it’s kind of like a passion for me, but the 400 is what I like to do as my main event and it’s the one I train for. “I had a hard week of training but I didn’t feel too bad. I did better than I thought I would but I’m looking forward to running some faster times.” ThunderRidge senior Cameron Gill, a triple jump runner-up at last spring’s state
won, won the triple jump with a 45- 11.75 inch effort. ThunderRidge finished third in the team standings with 50 points. Mountain Vista was sixth, Castle View ninth and Rock Canyon 15th. Castle View was the top local finisher in the girls competition, winding up 12th with 21 points. Rock Canyon freshman Rhyan Pettaway ran a 16.00 in the 100-meter hurdles to finish second and notch the top local finish among the girls. Castle View’s Brittany Reiner was fifth in the 100 meters (12.80) and 400 meters (1:00.96). Mountain Vista’s Laura Londono ran a 5:30.21 to finish fourth in the 1600-meter run.

Castle Rock teen represents state Katelyn Pyfer heads to Distinguished Young Women national contest By Jane Reuter
jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Katelyn Pyfer is an actor, piano teacher, songwriter, restaurant employee and fulltime student. The Castle Rock teen also added the title Distinguished Young Woman of Colorado to that already extensive resume. The Douglas County High School senior won the March 16 state competition, held at Denver Christian High School. She was chosen from among 15 other Colorado high school seniors evaluated on scholastics, interviewing style, fitness, self-expression and talent. “I was so grateful that it was me, but it was definitely a shock,” Pyfer said. “There were so many different girls that had so many different talents. It really could have been anybody.” Pyfer doesn’t like speculating on why she won, but acknowledges she’s long been comfortable speaking in public.
Castle Rock
“I think a lot of it was my stage presence,” said Pyfer, who played the lead role in the recent DCHS production of “Aida.” “I have loved talking to adults and big groups of people for as long as I can remember. I think that helps a lot with interview skills and performing.” Pyfer, daughter of Kevin and Patti Pyfer, won $600 in cash scholarships and moves on to represent the state during the national event. She’ll also represent Colorado at various public events in 2013, serving as a living example of the program’s national outreach message, “Be Your Best Self.” The Distinguished Young Women program was known until 2010 as America’s Junior Miss. The name change, Pyfer said, reflects a difference in philosophy. “Beauty isn’t always necessarily external,” she said. “They’re looking for wholesome, feminine people who aren’t necessarily involved with temporal things. It doesn’t really matter about your outward appearance, but what you can offer from the inside.” Pyfer’s older sister Pamela participated in the America’s Junior Miss program 11 years ago, and Katelyn knew then she want-

in Mobile, Ala. Pyfer and 49 other state representatives will participate in personal development activities and community service projects before the competition. But Pyfer’s life hardly hinges on what happens then. For one, she’s too busy to think about it in great detail. Pyfer works at Chick-filA and teaches piano in addition to theater and classes. “I am a busy woman,” she said. “I leave at 6:30 (a.m.) and don’t come home til 10:30 or 11 each night.” Secondly, the next step in her life already is in place. Pyfer was recently accepted at Brigham Young University, where she plans to major in theater education and minor in math education. “They are two very different subjects, but it kind of works both sides of my brain,” she said. “I get the best of both worlds.” Founded in 1958, Distinguished Young Women is the largest and oldest national scholarship program for high school girls. Last year, it provided more than $108 million in cash and college scholarship opportunities to program participants at the local, state and national levels.
