Free, front-yard jazz show returns to Sloan’s Lake Neighbors fought, then reached compromise over outdoor concerts BY DESIREE MATHURIN DENVERITE

On a breezy Friday evening, on the front stoop of a house across from Sloan’s Lake Park, you can hear jazz musician Rico Jones practicing on his saxophone. Jones has been playing since

he was 11, so practicing is a daily thing, but on this occasion he was practicing for a little “concert.” The venue: the front yard of his parents’ home. The Rico Jones and Friends band has been putting on performances in Sloan’s Lake since summer 2020, because the pandemic had shut down everything else. No bars. No gigs. No live music. No social interactions. Until Jones’ brother had a bright idea. “One day my brother suggested, ‘Why don’t you invite some friends

over to play in the front yard? You can do it socially distanced and it’ll be outside,’” Jones said. “I thought about it for a bit and decided to invite some friends over. We just played outside on the front lawn of my home.” Jones said at first, a few people in the park would stop and watch before going about their day, and drivers would slow down and give the group a honk before driving off. But soon, curiosity won and people started staying put. Jones SEE JAZZ, P11

A strong, reliable internet signal may be more important than ever amid the coronavirus pandemic, but internet service isn’t a sure thing for every household. The federal agency that regulates communication by radio, television, satellite and cable is offering a program that provides a temporary discount on monthly internet bills for low-income households that qualify. And in some parts of Englewood, Denver and Aurora, a company called Starry Inc. is providing lowcost internet service without the credit checks or complex eligibility criteria required by other internet providers, the company says. Here’s information about how to take advantage of the two programs.

Event takes visitors into the future through immersive art Novo Ita is the biggest event for Spectra Art Space since COVID-19 shut it down BY ALEXIS KIKOEN ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

It’s hundreds of years in the future. The world has burned, and humans are learning to live in this new reality. It’s not a plot of the latest sci-fi movie; it’s something you can experience for yourself in Denver. Over 25 local artists have come together to create Novo Ita, an immersive experience at Spectra Art Space, 1836 S. Broadway in Denver. “I’m so excited, we’ve been working it for months, since December,” said Sadie Young, Spectra’s owner and founder, and the creative director of Novo Ita. “It’s a narrativedriven art experience. [The story] is a city in the very distant future that has developed out of what we call in the story ‘The Event.’” “The Event” was inspired by reallife climate change, and depicts a future where the world has burned down and been rebuilt. Their inspiration is an art movement known as Solar Punk. It’s a stark contrast to the more popular genre of Steampunk, which imagines a more dystopian post-apocalyptic version of Earth. In Novo Ita, Earth’s residents

learned from their mistakes “and have learned to work with the Earth to create a thriving, sustainable society,” Young explained. Along with the sustainability theme, it was important for Young to use as much recycled material as possible. She estimates that 90% of the material used in the entire exhibition is recycled or reclaimed. Another feature of the experience is the use of augmented reality to tell the story. Visitors can use their phones to scan codes around the exhibit. Animated characters will pop up and help tell the story. Novo Ita is the biggest event for Spectra Art Space since COVID-19

It was almost over.” Spectra survived through help from Paycheck Protection Program loans, live streams, private events, and “our amazing community and the support that we had,” Young said. She encouraged people to check out Novo Ita as a way to support local artists. “Every ticket helps

Redistricting commissions schedule public hearings Gatherings are chance to comment on proposed congressional and statehouse districts BY THY VO AND SANDRA FISH THE COLORADO SUN

Coloradans have a chance to have their voices heard on proposals for redrawn congressional and legislative districts at a total of 32 meetings around the state through the end of August. The gatherings are the public’s opportunity to address both the Independent Congressional Redistricting Commission and Independent Legislative Redistricting Commission, which will convene jointly at each meeting. The Colorado Sun examined the initial congressional and legislative maps offered by nonpartisan legislative staff and comments submitted online by the public — most of which came before the preliminary maps were issued — from different corners of the state to get an idea of what concerns the commissioners might hear. More attention — and public comments — have been directed toward remapping the congressional districts as Colorado is slated to get SEE HEARINGS, P5

a new, eighth seat in the U.S. House. But the impact on state Senate and House seats could also be big, with control of the state Legislature — currently dominated by Democrats — at stake. The commission will hold hearings in the Denver metro area on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings and in other parts of the state on Fridays and Saturdays. Most of the members of each 12-member commission will attend the hearings in person, though some will attend virtually. Typically, meetings will be chaired by a commission member from the congressional district in which they are held. The venue for some meetings, especially those scheduled for August, aren’t yet finalized. View the redistricting commissions’ official calendar at redistricting.colorado.gov for the most up-to-date information. Half of the state’s eight congressional districts would encompass all or part of the Denver metro area under the proposal from nonpartisan staff. And a significant number of state House and Senate districts are also in the area. Ten of the commissions’ public hearings will be held in Denver metro communities, all on Tuesday or Wednesday evenings through Aug. 24. More than 100 commenters from Lakewood already have chimed in, with most asking that Lakewood,

The two are drawn together in the proposed 7th Congressional District. Meanwhile, the proposed map places the new 8th Congressional District in the area northwest and north of Denver, including the cities of Arvada, Westminster, Broomfield, Thornton, Brighton and Platteville.

The map resembles one recommended by the Colorado Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, though it doesn’t stretch as far into Weld County as that group suggested. Legislative districts are likely to be a focus of the hearings, too. Three proposed metro-area Senate districts and five House districts would place incumbents in the same district. Public comments sent to the commissioners asked them to consider: • Black, Hispanic and minority communities, whose populations have shifted from central Denver to Aurora, Commerce City and other suburban Denver areas. • The impact of affordable housing and the interests of renters. • Oddly-drawn district lines in the proposed legislative maps, including splitting the dorms of the University of Denver between two state House districts. The Interstate 25 corridor north from Denver saw some of the state’s most explosive growth between 2010 and 2020, as subdivisions popped up on former agricultural land. That’s part of the reason the new 8th Congressional District was drawn in this area. The first draft also would shrink the 2nd Congressional District, still including the college towns of Boulder and Fort Collins, but no longer reaching across the Continental Divide into Eagle County. The 4th District would include the northern and eastern parts of Weld County under the proposal, before stretching out to the Eastern Plains and south. Residents of western Boulder

County are upset at potentially being moved into the 3rd Congressional District under the proposed map. The 3rd District has been a Republican stronghold and it’s currently represented by U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert. Some 20 people submitted nearly identical comments to the commission objecting to the proposed change, which includes placing all of Summit and Eagle counties in the 3rd District. Other comments received by the commissions thus far include: • Concerns about Longmont’s grouping with Weld, Douglas and Eastern Plains counties in the current congressional map, rather than with Boulder. • Urging a congressional district be drawn along the northern I-25 corridor, including to keep Larimer and Weld counties together and separate from the Eastern Plains. Others, however, want to keep Larimer and Weld separate from each other. • How rapid population growth and development in Greeley has given it more in common with metro Denver than with Fort Morgan, Sterling and Yuma. • How a significant Hispanic population in Greeley could be grouped with those in Longmont, Brighton and Commerce City.

Mountain Vista grad to compete in Olympics Jessica Thoennes selected for second seat on U.S. women’s rowing team BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

After graduating from Mountain Vista High School in Highlands Ranch, Jessica Thoennes started her rowing career as a walk-on for the University of Washington. After more than six years of hard work, she has been selected to represent the United States as the second Thoennes seat on the Women’s 8+ Rowing Team in Tokyo this summer. Thoennes, who has been training for the Olympics at Princeton in New Jersey, will leave for Japan on July 14. The 25-year-old said she is excited and humbled by the opportunity she has earned. Thoennes, who played basketball and volleyball at Mountain Vista, said she always wanted to be a Division I athlete. “When I played basketball and

volleyball, I was OK,” she said. “I wouldn’t say I was ever the coach’s favorite. You wouldn’t want to put the ball in my hands when the game is on the line.” Thoennes said she was weighing her options and looking around after high school when she went to the University of Washington to visit a friend who had joined the school’s rowing team. She was given a tour, met with coaches and offered a possible shot at joining the team. “They told me they thought I would be good,” she said. “I was thinking there was no way.” Thoennes said she immediately fell in love with Washington, pushing her to at least start going to school there, starting in 2014. After five months, Jessica said she decided to take the coach up on his offer for books and food in return for her being a walk-on for the team. “When I first got out there, I had never touched an oar,” she said. “I thought I was going to break the boat. It took time to fall in love with this sport, but late in my sophomore year, I realized how much I love it. I know now that I want to keep doing this for as long as I can.” SEE THOENNES, P8

Wheat Ridge alum headed to Tokyo From Stober Elementary to Tokyo Games, hometown girl makes good BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Annie Kunz, Wheat Ridge High School alumna and two-sport athlete at Texas A&M University, is headed to Tokyo to compete in the heptathlon after scoring a personal-best 6,703 points at a June 26 Olympic qualifying event in Eugene, Oregon. Kunz set personal Kunz records in six of the seven events in which she competed and broke the Olympic trials record in shot put with a throw of 15.73 meters. That record was previously held by Olympic champion Jackie Joyner-Kersee, who rose to fame by winning two gold medals in the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, South Korea. In the final event of her qualifying meet, Kunz finished with a strong time of 2 minutes, 15.24 seconds in the 800 meters on a day

when the thermometer reached a scorching 108 degrees. The temperature at the start of the race was still 96 degrees. According to the Texas Aggies website, Kunz’s previous careerbest heptathlon score was 6,153 points in 2019. In an interview with TexAgs. com the morning after qualifying, a still-overwhelmed Kunz said she was still emotional thinking of the accomplishment. “I have goosebumps just hearing you say ‘Olympian’ when you introduced me,” she said. “To see it all come to reality and live out this dream that I’ve literally had since I could walk, is a dream come true.” She said when she crossed the finish line in the final event and saw her points score up on the results board, it was something she’d never thought would be attainable. “That’s when the emotion just took over, and I just thank God for the experience,” she said. Kunz also said she was grateful for the postponement (due to COVID) of the Olympics because of the extra year of valuable track and field training time. Soccer had been her primary sport in high school and college, and she SEE KUNZ, P16

Metro area home sales set median price record in June Just 3,122 homes were listed for sale last month across metro counties BY ESTEBAN L. HERNANDEZ DENVERITE

The median closing price for a home in the Denver metro area was a record $545,000 in June, according to the latest real estate market trends report from the Denver Metro Association of Realtors. The amount is a 1.49% increase from May, and a whopping 22.47% increase compared to June 2020. The report uses sales from 11 counties in the metro area, including Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Broomfield, Denver and Jefferson counties. Realtor Brigette Modglin, who’s been part of the Association of Realtors’ market trends committee since 2016, said some of the reasons for the increase include more millennials looking to buy homes, buyers who want to work from home after the pandemic, and baby boomers who are also interested in buying, either by upsizing or downsizing from their current home. She added there were some huge sales that may have skewed numbers a bit. A home in ritzy Cherry Hills Village recently sold for $1.1 million above its initial listing price tag.

While Modglins said it wasn’t clear whether this sale impacted June’s number, she said this is the kind of sale that can cause sale averages to spike. She noted that this is why the median closing price is generally used more often than the average closing price, since Modglin said the average is the sum of all home sale prices divided by the total number of sales. The median is more of the “middle” value and is more insulated from outliers like, say, a multimillion-dollar home sale. The report said the average closing price for a home in the metro area in June was $643,645. The report noted the average number of homes on the market for June is 16,098, based on figures from 1985 to 2020. The market is nowhere near that, with just 3,122 listings last month, a record low. Despite being a record low, June’s homes-on-the-market figures were a 50.46% increase from May, far above the average 5.86% change. But even then, the 3,122 listings were 51.09 percent fewer than in June 2020. The record high listing for June was in 2006 when the area had 31,900 listings, according to the report.

THOENNES FROM PAGE 6

Proud father Christopher Thoennes said being asked to be a walk-on in rowing at the University of Washington is like being a walk-on for Alabama and Duke football. Jessica Thoennes said she is humbled with the thought of reaching the top in a sport she has been giving everything to for six years when other teammates have been training for 20 years. “I have just kept showing up and working as hard as I possibly can,” she said. “I knew I had to walk the walk before I could get the accolades. My brain still can’t comprehend that after six years, I am now on to the Olympics.” In her climb to the top in the sport, Thoennes won the silver in the women’s 8+ at the 2017 World Rowing Under-23 Championships, earned academic All-Pac-12 honorable mention and won gold in the 2018 NCAA Rowing Championships. While his daughter has accomplished a lot in athletics, Christopher Thoennes, a Highlands Ranch resident, said he is most proud of the courage it took to stand up and help others dealing with depression and mentalhealth issues. Jessica Thoennes said during her sophomore year in college, she attempted suicide twice. She said the only reason she did not go through with it both times was

The Rotary Club of Golden recognizes

BGOLDN as a significant contributor to the quality of life in our community. Working with its partners and volunteers, BGOLDN addresses food insecurity in the Golden area. While the Golden Backpack Program paved the way for distributing food and meals to Golden school children and families, BGOLDN expanded this mission to include providing assistance to all those in our area facing difficulties in obtaining healthy food. Of particular note, BGOLDN organized a food distribution program shortly after the outbreak of COVID locally. Anyone in need could receive food purchased by BGOLDN at cost from thirteen Golden-area restaurants, most of which were suffering from a serious fall-off in business due to the pandemic. As part of its Ethics in Business Awards program in 2021, each quarter Golden Rotary will select a local person or organization making significant contributions to the community and/or demonstrating high ethical standards in its business operations. We ask that our community join us in recognizing BGOLDN for its important, ongoing and valuable contributions.

“I knew if I didn’t make it to practice, the girls would not get to row,” she said. “Eventually, I talked to the team doctor and found out I had depression and a chemical in my brain was causing it.” Now, she said she makes it a priority to help other athletes dealing with depression and selfdoubt. She said athletes face a lot of pressure, and admitting to dealing with mental-health issues can sometimes be seen as a weakness. “It did not dawn on me how much I was struggling until I got

to my lowest point,” she said. “I never want anyone to feel how I did in those dark moments. If I can help one person, one teammate, it is worth it.” She said that when other athletes talk to her about struggling, she always lets them know better days are ahead. “I always make them aware that even though my brain does not produce a certain chemical the way it should, I can still achieve amazing things,” she said. “I consider it an honor and privilege to be someone other athletes can turn to without judgement.”

VOICES

Shelf awareness leads to summer getaways

. Scott Fitzgerald wrote, “And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow fast in the movies, I had that familiar conviction that life QUIET was beginning over DESPERATION again with summer.” What better way is there to embrace summer than to walk a book to the bedroom, backyard, or beach and, albeit temporarily, leave this often troubled Craig Marshall world and discover Smith other lives, places, and adventures? Choosing what to read can be overwhelming. Bookstores are brimming with books. Libraries too. My grocery store sells books. Ever helpful, I thought I’d provide some suggestions in the form of a quiz. All of the summaries (get it?) below refer to books and plays that take place entirely or partially in

one or more summers, including a shameless self-promotion. The answers are given at the end of the column. 1. Fitzgerald’s quote comes from which one of his novels? The one about a character named Gatsby or a character named Gatsby? 2. Demetrius and Lysander both want Hermia. With Nick Bottom, Tom Snout and Snug. 3. In New Orleans, Mrs. Violet Venable asks a doctor to perform a lobotomy on her niece. (In the film version, Venable was portrayed by Katharine Hepburn.) 4. Take me out to the ballgame. This is a book written by a sportswriter named Kahn. 5. It’s 1942. Hermie, fifteen, is obsessed with an older woman. She’s twenty-two. 6. The final summer of a small town south of Denver before it is scheduled to be demolished on Halloween. A witty art professor, one of the town’s lone remaining residents, manages a general store, becomes involved in a captivating mystery right out of Sherlock Holmes without the British accents. A bookstore

that holds a secret, and a dachshund named William. (Hot off the press.) 7. “A delightfully candid memoir about her journey from singing in a Boston church to her unexpected reign as the Queen of Disco.” This, by the way, is a trick question. 8. First published in 1958, this book begat a film that begat a theme song by Percy Faith that was, unfortunately, a Number One hit for nine weeks in 1960. 9. “Carmen got the jeans at a thrift store.” Then the jeans go on a journey. 10. Ray Bradbury, best known for “Fahrenheit 451,” wrote this book about a twelve-year-old boy’s “magical, timeless summer.” Every spring, newspapers, magazines, and bookstores provide book lovers with lists of books that promise to be perfect summer companions. Generally — not always — the recommended books are new. I prefer old friends. 1. “The Great Gatsby,” a far better book than movie. 2. William Shakespeare’s play, “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” Neither film version recommended.

3. Tennessee Williams’ play, “Suddenly, Last Summer,” is very intense. 4. “The Boys of Summer,” Roger Kahn’s non-fiction book about baseball before performance-enhancing drugs. 5. “Summer of ‘42” by Herman Raucher. 6. “Welcome to Earle,” written by Craig Marshall Smith. Available at Amazon. 7. “Ordinary Girl: The Journey.” Donna Summer’s biography. 8. “A Summer Place” by Sloan Wilson. 9. “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” is a series of young adult novels by Ann Brashares. 10. “Dandelion Wine,” published in 1957, it takes place in 1928. Mungo Jerry: “In the summertime when the weather is high, you can chase right up and touch the sky.” (Mungo Jerry’s name comes from a T.S. Eliot poem.) Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast.net.

Conviction cures complacency

s a big believer in the lessis-more approach, I find three-word statements to be powerful in their meaning, easy to remember, and in most cases impactful when applied. “Less is more,” three WINNING simple words that when we put them WORDS together, make so much sense while keeping us focused. Other powerful three-word statements such as “I love you,” “I’ve got you,” “You are forgiven” and “Just do it” are motivating Michael Norton and we immediately get their meaning. We can apply them in appropriate situations, both in our personal lives and in our professional work. The three-word headline of this column is a subject I have been speaking about lately with customers, groups, and even family and friends. And these three words started resonating with me as conversations with people from all walks of life and types of businesses had

similar experiences that were either happening within them personally, witnessed in their company, or as a general complaint or observation about the level of service they were receiving. That word is complacency. If you haven’t experienced this yet yourself, I encourage you to put it to the test. Are you or those around you, those you work with, or the businesses you frequent just going through the motions? Does it feel any different than when we strived for excellence, pursued new goals, or worked hard to create raving fans and loyal customers in the past? I had the opportunity to sit with a team of executives as they were about to launch a new service through their existing business. They asked me for my opinion about what I had heard and seen, and if I saw any blind spots. Instead of answering immediately, I asked the group the following questions, “Will this service change lives?” And “Will this service be a large part of the future of the company?” The answers to both questions were “Yes.” My third question was this, “Are you convicted?” The good news was that there was no hesitation on the

part of the executive team, they all responded in word, tonality, and body language that they were absolutely convicted that this new service could change lives and it was going to be a very big part of where they were taking the company. The trickle-down effect was also very impressive. As I met others inside the organization, the feeling of conviction was palpable. Everyone was energized about their work. They were anxious to work on the development of the program, they were enthusiastic when doing research, and thrilled to be talking to existing customers and new prospects about what was being developed. This level of conviction cured any signs of complacency. Let’s take it out of the business world for a moment. Let’s think about our family lives and our personal journeys, our relationships, and the things that give us the greatest joy. Have we become complacent? Is it not just those around us where we see complacency, but when we take a good look in the mirror, do we see it as well? If this is you, don’t sweat it, and remember that you are not alone.

most times we can cure the malady of complacency with one word, conviction. We all have gifts and talents. We all have things and people who inspire us. But talent without effort breeds mediocrity and that can become the root of complacency. Reidentify what energizes us. Become re-acquainted with our passions. And become convicted about what we want in life, the type of person we hope to be, and get fired up about the things we enjoy doing most and watch as complacency gets replaced with hope, purpose, passion and achievement. How about you? Has complacency taken up residence in your life? Are your employees or company running on complacency instead of conviction? I would love to hear your story at mnorton@tramazing.com, and when we choose to cure complacency through conviction, it really will be a better than good year.

JAZZ FROM PAGE 1

said residents from the neighborhood, equipped with blankets and chairs, started sitting in the park to watch the mini jazz fest. “Once that started happening, we said why not do this every week and play for the people in the community,” Jones said. “We kept playing and doing it for the joy of making music together, along with some human interaction.” Jones said park-goers would adhere to social distancing rules. Viewers could leave tips via cash jars or Venmo, but Jones made it clear that money wasn’t mandatory. It was a free event during a time where people craved something other than the confinements of their homes. But not everyone enjoyed the shows. Dispute begins It’s unclear whether multiple households were not OK with a jazz concert happening steps from their home, but one neighbor a block away did not like it, according to Jones. Attempts to reach the neighbor through Jones for a comment were unsuccessful. The concerts were coming to an end because of the cold, so the issue was dropped, until Jones made a post in the Nextdoor app asking if people would like to see the shows return. Jones said about 800 people wanted the music, and the neighbor was not one of them. The neighbor complained on Nextdoor that the show was too loud and that they would get the city involved if the music continued. Cue the neighborhood drama. A back-and-forth ensued, according to Jones, with the neighbor sending a nasty message to him and with residents responding with their own rage toward the neighbor. Jones said a few times he had to step in and ask folks not to be rude or harass the neighbor. In the Sloan’s Lake Neighborhood Association’s Facebook group, recent posts regarding the squabble were sprinkled with name-calling and arguments on who was right and who was wrong. A mediator from the city was brought in to settle the dispute, and the shows were canceled in the interim. Jones said the mediation didn’t go far. “You know, when there’s some people who do not want the (show) … I don’t want to dismiss that,” Jones said. “I really wanted to make as many adjustments as possible. Everyone in the community has a right to live happily and have a sense of security and peace when they’re home.” Steps toward solution Larry Ambrose, a neighborhood association member, stepped in to help Jones. Ambrose said he went to the neighbor’s home to capture the sound levels with a professional decibel meter. At first, he and the neighbor argued but afterward, the neighbor allowed Ambrose to capture the levels

in the backyard. The sound didn’t register, according to Ambrose. Eventually, the neighbor and Ambrose came to a verbal agreement that Jones could play Friday and Saturdays, ending before 8:30 p.m. Jones could also play on holidays, including the Fourth of July and Labor Day. “There was a lot of miscommunication,” Ambrose said. “But we found a common ground. We want to work with them and make sure that the music isn’t too loud for them or any other neighbors. Any type of problems should be communicated directly without any hesitancy in a professional and civil manner.” So Rico Jones and Friends is officially back. A July 2 show was as smooth as the music itself. About 75 people showed up in the park with food, drinks, chairs, kids and dogs. After each song, the crowd faintly clapped with a few cheers. “We moved here a year ago and when it was COVID there was nothing to do and this was a free fun thing to do while social distancing,” said Amy Gross and Frank Miller, who were hanging out in the park. “I think it brings a lot of joy to the neighborhood,” Gross said. “We’ve been telling all of our friends that (Jones) is back this summer and it’s really cool that they are willing to do that for free.” Jones would agree. In the middle of the madness, he contemplated whether allowing the concerts to continue, despite one person’s displeasure, was worth it. “It’s strange. I never anticipated this becoming what it has become … and I didn’t want to cause any distress,” Jones said. “People in tough situations opened up to me and said, hey, this was really meaningful to me when I didn’t have a lot else going on.” And ultimately, the show will go on. Jones said listeners can keep tabs on the shows through Nextdoor, Facebook and Instagram. He said they’ll play Fridays and Saturdays,

weather permitting. The shows will also remain free. But tips are always appreciated, which Jones said he distributes to his rotating group of friends. “It feels silly playing in your front yard for an audience,” Jones chuckled. “But being able to play at a place

as humble as your home is very pleasant.” This story is from Denverite, a nonprofit Denver news source affiliated with CPR News. Used by permission. For more, and to support Denverite, visit denverite.com.

Rounding up the cycling trails

Cyclists pass each other on the Clear Creek Trail.

PHOTOS BY BOB WOOLEY

If you’re new to the area, or just want to branch out, here’s a must-try list of some of the best rides around nicipal lots or parking spaces a bit east of the trailhead.

BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

’T

is the season for twowheeled adventure. Lucy Hanna said she’s just visiting but couldn’t wait to hop on a bike — a loaner from her niece Claire — and check out the Clear Creek Trail. “You have some beautiful trails out here,” she said. “This is the second time I’ve checked out a new ride since I’ve been here.” She said it’s nothing like her rides back home in Louisiana. “You can’t even really think about it (cycling) this time of year. The humidity is just … I don’t know … oppressive,” she said. Those of us lucky enough to call the metro area home have miles of trails to choose from. Throw in some of the lowest relative humidity in the nation and summer can be a downright pleasant time to go riding. That said, here’s a list of some of the most popular places to get back on the bike and enjoy the fleeting summer months while you can. Bear Creek Bike Trail You can pick up the trail near US 285 and River Point Parkway. There are parking lots near the South Platte, where the Mary Carter Greenway Trail and Platte River Trail meet. The trail, running alongside the Bear Creek corridor pretty closely, offers stunning views of the western foothills as you make your way through Bear Valley, Bear Creek Lake Park and ultimately into

Kipling West section of the Clear Creek Trail in Wheat Ridge.

Morrison. According to reviews on TrailLink.com, the Bear Creek Trail is a relatively flat, easy ride that can be enjoyed by cyclists of all abilities. On the west side of the trail, you can find parking along Morrison Road or one of the parking lots in downtown Morrison. High Line Canal Trail Starting in Aurora and ending some 71 miles away in Roxborough Park, the High Line Canal Trail runs through the metro area’s southern suburbs. Along the way, you’ll go through Goldsmith Gulch, deKoevend Park and Horseshoe Park just to name a few, before the trail ends near Platte Canyon Reservoir. From the Waterton Canyon Trailhead parking lot, it’s just a short distance to the High Line Canal Trailhead. Starting from points east, consult

a trail map and follow municipal parking regulations. Clear Creek Trail From Thornton to Golden, this 20-mile trail has a bit of everything. A slight incline that tops out at just over 5,800 feet adds to the challenge, but the scenery is said by TrailLink reviewers, to be worth the effort. Included in the ride are views of North and South Table Mountain, thrown in for free. You’ll cut through a good chunk of Wheat Ridge and make your way between Prospect, Tabor and West lakes as you head toward I-70. Historic Golden vibes abound as you cross Ford Street on your way to the trail’s end near Clear Creek Canyon Road, just east of Indian Gulch. Temporary construction closures at the Clear Creek Parking Lot in Golden may make it necessary to start your ride on the westside, nearer to one of the Golden mu-

Cherry Creek Trail On the southeast side of town, the Cherry Creek Trail gives cyclists the opportunity to ride from Cherry Creek Reservoir to Downtown Denver. At around 20-miles-long, the trail takes riders through some of the coolest urban areas in the city. Starting your ride near Confluence Park in Lodo, you’ll make your way along Cherry Creek as it ambles toward the southeastern suburbs, cutting through Glendale and Virginia Village before ending at Cherry Creek Reservoir. For the super adventurous, the trail continues all the way to the small, rural, Franktown — another 20 miles south. There are several rest stops along the route, with restrooms for those in need. And due to the proximity to the city center, it’s not unheard of to see inline skaters, folks on scooters or even e-bikes moving pretty fast, so be aware. Veteran Denver cyclist Michael Lewis said he’s ridden most of the trails the city has to offer. He said he’s partial to the South Platte River Trail himself, but said for people just starting out, or those looking for a nice ride with a lot less distance involved, a lap or two around Sloan’s Lake or Washington Park is hardly ever a bad idea. “There’s such a great cycling community here,” he said. “Almost everywhere you go, you’ll find people who just love to be out there (cycling).”

and Aurora may qualify for low-cost internet service from a company called Starry Inc. The average cost of internet service is often out of reach for families living in public housing (government-supported housing) and affordable housing. In 2018, Starry launched the Starry Connect program to make broadband access available to families living in those housing communities, according to a news release. Starry Connect offers residents 30 Mbps symmetrical speeds (upload and download) for $15 per month with no data caps, no long-term contracts, no additional equipment charges and no extra fees, said Mimi Ryals, a spokesperson for Starry. Starry ties eligibility directly to the public- or affordable-housing community to remove the paperwork and qualification burden from the resident, the news release said. Starry Connect launched in Denver in 2019 through a partnership with the Denver Housing Authority to bring the service to more than 600 households at Vida in west Denver, along with Connole Apartments and Thomas Bean Towers. The Connect program also partners with Innovative Housing Concepts — Englewood’s housing authority — and other agencies around the country, according to the release. “Headquartered in Boston and backed by world-class investors,

Starry is currently available in Boston, New York, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., and Denver and is expanding nationwide,” a Starry news release said. Starry also launched a partnership with Aurora Public Schools recently to provide the Starry Connect service to APS families living in parts of Aurora. The partnership marks the first time Starry is making the service available to families living outside of public- and affordable-housing communities, Ryals said. It’s available for certain APS families who qualify for free or reduced school lunch and live in residential buildings with Starry internet service in the following ZIP codes: 80010, 80011, 80012, 80045, 80220, 80230, 80238 and 80247. Starry will provide eligible families with five months of free service upon sign-up, a news release said. All residents signing up for Starry Connect service in Denver Housing Authority and Englewood’s Innovative Housing Concepts communities will receive a discount code that can be redeemed by eligible households for a computer from an organization called PCs for People. “Redeeming the offer is not a requirement to receive Starry Connect service — it is simply an additional offer to help our communities get connected and online with affordable broadband and devices,” Ryals said. Check availability of Starry’s service at starry.com or call 888-2319403. Learn about how its technology works and how it keeps costs low at starry.com/technology.

Wheat Ridge High alum Annie Kunz at the IAAF World Championships in Qatar in 2019. She is heading to the Olympics in Tokyo later this summer to compete in the COURTESY PHOTO heptathlon.

said she’d always felt like she was behind her competitors in terms of training. With 14 people — family and friends — supporting her at the Oregon trials, Kunz said she didn’t have to look far for people with whom to share her excitement. “I looked up (into the stands) and I see my family, and that’s when I just lost it again. I just could not be more happy than to celebrate with them,” she said. Kunz leaves for Tokyo July 26 and

competes in the heptathlon Aug. 4 and 5. She said she won’t be able to attend the opening ceremony due to heightened COVID protocols. “But with such a crazy year and so much talk about cancellation, I’m just grateful that we get to compete,” she said. “And honestly it might be the best thing for me. I can just think of it as a business trip and I’ll be able to focus a little bit more.” Kunz, who graduated from Wheat Ridge High School in 2011, was a 2016 graduate of Texas A&M. Her father, Terry, played for the Oakland Raiders and was part of the 1976 team that went on to win the Super Bowl.

Young muralists paint ‘brightness and hope’ Englewood Schools art students beautify neglected stretch along creek BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Englewood got a bit brighter this spring as Emily Ancona’s art students livened up a drab stretch of Little Dry Creek with a sprawling mural — the latest in a series of art projects around town led by the Englewood High School art teacher. The new mural adorns a retaining wall along the final stretch of Little Dry Creek before it joins the South Platte River, along a stretch of busy highway sandwiched between mobile home parks and industrial uses. The mural incorporates brainstorms from Ancona’s students, featuring everything from king-size toadstools to mountain sunsets to top hat-festooned mallards. “I hope it brings brightness and

hope for the future,” Ancona said. “Any art we can put up that reflects the individuals in our community is a good thing.” Ancona partnered with the Museum of Outdoor Arts, which bankrolled the project — the latest in a series of collaborations with the museum that have seen the teacher and her students paint electrical boxes and put up murals on walls along Broadway. Ancona said the idea to paint the retaining wall came from a local resident who said it was crying out for art. From there, the community came together. She was joined by Englewood Middle School art teacher Erin Rademacher, who helped plan and implement the mural. City officials quickly greenlighted the project. Chiles Friedman, Englewood’s 2020 Citizen of the Year, helped clean up trash to prepare the site. Gallegos Corp., a stone masonry business around the corner, set up temporarary scaffolding for students to use as a bridge to cross the creek.

Artist Amanda Wolf helped plan the project. But the creative impulse came mostly from Englewood’s students. “I’m proud of us,” said Ally Garcia, a sophomore who took part in the painting. “Our ideas got distributed really well, and it was great watching the mural come to life.” Garcia said she lives on what she calls Englewood’s “outskirts” — the northwest corner, cut off from the heart of town, and she was glad to see some beautification in the sometimes-overlooked corridor. She also said she’s grateful for her art teacher.

“She’s my favorite person in the world,” Garcia said of Ancona. “She’s really open and honest. She makes people comfortable. I love art — it’s what I do all day, and she pushes me to be a better artist.” Ancona, who grew up in Englewood and was a 2006 graduate of the school where she now teaches, said she’s thrilled to take part in prettying up her hometown. “Englewood has gone through a lot of changes since I was in high school,” she said. “Downtown is livelier than I’ve ever seen it. It feels like a revival, and I’m proud we’ve been able to add some art to it.”
