Chicano Humanities and Arts Council leaving Denver for Lakewood Pioneering nonprofit is moving to 40 West Arts District
Colorado lawmakers introduce bill declaring Juneteenth a state holiday

A staple of the Denver arts scene is leaving its home in the Santa Fe Arts District for the more affordable confines of Lakewood’s upstart 40 West. A longstanding fixture that helped usher in Santa Fe’s legendary First Fridays, the Chicano Humanities and Arts Council (CHAC) has signed a lease to take over the space currently occupied by 40 West Gallery at 1560 Teller St. in April. In turn, 40 West Gallery will relocate to a new building in the District. In 2018, CHAC was forced to move to a less trendy, far less walkable space several blocks to the south due to skyrocketing real estate prices the success of galleries like CHAC helped foster.
resent about 30 different cuisines. How it works is participating restaurants create a multicourse dinner based on three price points — $25, $35 or $45 per person. Menus were announced mid-February, and diners are able to search restaurants by location, price point, cuisine and amenities, such as minority-owned or vegan options available.
Colorado lawmakers have kickstarted the process of making Juneteenth an official state holiday, joining the federal government and many businesses that already observe it. On March 2, members of the Black Democratic Legislative Caucus gathered with supporters outside the state Capitol to promote SB22-139. The bill would add Juneteenth to the calendar of state holidays starting this year. “I think Juneteenth is largely seen as an African American thing, but it should be seen as something for the general population,” said Sen. Janet Buckner, one of the bill’s sponsors. “It should be something to be educated about and never forgotten.” The holiday commemorates June 19, 1865, when Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas and freed the country’s last remaining enslaved people more than two years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth has been recognized by many Black communities, including Denver’s, for decades. President Joe Biden designated it as the 11th federal holiday in 2021, making it the first addition to the federal list since Martin Luther King Jr. Day in 1983. State holidays specifically impact the operations of government offices and public schools. Colorado’s effort to officially recognize Juneteenth stems from negotiations with the state workers’ union, which signed its first contract last November. The union, Colorado Workers for

Celebrating Denver’s culinary scene Denver Restaurant Week takes place March 11-20 BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Denver’s culinary scene is like a hidden gem nationally, said Justin Bresler, vice president of marketing for Visit Denver, but it’s something locals have always
known about. Denver Restaurant Week offers an opportunity to celebrate the local dining scene, and this year’s 18th annual event takes place March 11-20. “Denver Restaurant Week is always a time for chefs to show off their creativity,” Bresler said. “It’s a good time to visit an old favorite or try something new.” Nearly 200 restaurants are participating this year and they rep-

CU pulls investments from Russian companies Governor urges state colleges, universities to divest BY ERICA BREUNLIN THE COLORADO SUN
The University of Colorado is severing ties with publicly traded Russian companies, pulling money invested by the university’s foundation and treasury pool as an act of support for Ukraine following Russia’s invasion. The value of the investments are “negligible overall,” according to a media release from the university. “We are looking for ways to show our support for the people of Ukraine and believe that cutting our investments is the right thing to do,” CU President Todd Saliman said in a statement. Saliman was previously the university’s chief financial officer. The university’s move to divest from Russian companies comes as Gov. Jared Polis urges the state’s higher education institutions to break away from Russian state-owned assets. On Tuesday, Polis sent a letter to

Reservations are encouraged, and restaurants are expected to
colleges and universities asking them to “completely divest your endowment of any Russian-owned assets,” “terminate all contracts with the Russian-government,” and “terminate all grants in which the Russiangovernment or Russian institutions of higher education are the primary beneficiary.” Recommended Colorado’s former governor resigns from board of Russian bank Polis wrote that he hopes those sanctions can be “short-lived” and will put more pressure on Russia to end the war it started with Ukraine. “We will stand on the side of freedom and proudly support a democratic and independent Ukraine,” Polis wrote. “War, violence, and chaos threaten the very foundations of the global economy and our national security. Colorado will not turn its head. We will take affirmative actions to support Ukranians and hold Russia accountable.” Fund managers for the CU Foundation are working to sell investments. Holdings in publicly traded Russian companies represent less than 0.1% of the foundation’s $2.6 billion long-term investment pool, or less than $2.6 mil-
lion, according to the media release from the university. Additionally, the university is invested in mutual funds that have equity holdings in Russia. The amount invested totals about $3.5 million as of the most recent valuation, which equals less than 0.25% of the university’s assets. “The university has requested that the mutual funds exit these holdings as early as allowable,” the release stated. Jack Kroll, chairman of CU’s Board of Regents, called the measures “small but important steps.” The Colorado Department of Higher Education is not aware of any other state colleges or universities holding investments in Russian state-owned assets. Executive Director Angie Paccione reached out to presidents and CEOs of public institutions Thursday to ask if they had any financial connections to Russian entities. “There’s nothing active that we know of at this time,” said CDHE spokesperson Megan McDermott, adding that CDHE also asked institutions if they are conducting any research projects with Russia and were informed that there are none.
The state’s pension system, the Public Employees’ Retirement Association, has also divested $7.2 million from a Russian bank that was sanctioned by the U.S. government last week. Polis is pushing the PERA Trust Fund to completely divest from all Russian state-owned institutions, according to a media release from the governor’s office. PERA’s portfolio is valued at about $61 billion. That divestment falls as former Colorado Gov. Bill Owens recently resigned from the supervisory board of one of Russia’s largest banks, the Credit Bank of Moscow. “Ukraine is a free and independent nation which was brutally attacked in an unprovoked way by Russia,” Owens told The Colorado Sun last week. “I believe the U.S. and our allies should stand for Ukraine, as they stand for us all.”
be busy. Though they will do what they can to accommodate desired reservation times, Bresler suggests avoiding peak dining hours and trying restaurants at different times and days of the week. Bresler recommends dining
in but some of the participating restaurants are offering takeout. Those who would prefer takeout should inquire with the restaurants beforehand to determine if this is an option. Bonanno Concepts, a local chef-driven restaurant group, has five restaurants participating in this year’s Denver Restaurant Week. They are: Denver Milk Market in the Dairy Block downtown, Osteria Marco in Larimer Square, Luca in the Capitol Hill neighborhood, Lou’s Food Bar also in Capitol Hill and French 75 downtown. “You’re really hoping to showcase your restaurant,” said chef Frank Bonanno, who alongside his wife, Jacqueline, runs 10 food and drink concepts. Denver has “a really great dining community,” Bonanno said, adding that Denver diners embrace the local and independent
restaurants. The COVID-19 pandemic has posed unprecedented struggles for restaurants, and Denver Restaurant Week is the time to celebrate all that Denver’s dining scene has to offer. “Believe me,” Bonanno said, “after the past two years, everyone wants your business.” Bresler agrees and said diners can go to as many of the restaurants as they’d like during the 10-day Denver Restaurant Week event. “Restaurants make great community small businesses,” Bresler said. “They make up the fabric of why we love living here.”
Dear Davis Schilken, I just recently proposed to my girlfriend (now fiancée) and now her parents insist the two of us sign a prenup before we get married. How can I appease my in-laws while still protecting my rights? Sincerely, Perplexed by a Prenup Dear Perplexed by a Prenup, First off, let us congratulate your fiancée and you on your pending marriage. We hope your wedding day is as amazing as your life together will be!! Now, let’s get down to the business of nuptial agreements, which can either be done prior to or after marriage. Marital agreements, both prenuptial and postnuptial, are a written contract executed between a couple to specify what will happen to the couple’s assets in the event of divorce or death. Even if you build a happy, healthy marriage, one spouse will likely outlive the other. Marital agreements can give partners peace of mind about the financial future. When you’re about to get married, divorce is the last thing on your mind. However, the reality is that between 40 and 50 percent of first marriages end in divorce. If you bring significant assets to your marriage or if your fiancée has significant debts, a pre-nuptial agreement is an important way to protect yourself financially. The attorneys at Davis Schilken, PC can draft a prenuptial agreement that details the assets and debts of both parties to be married and explain how property will be divided and support handled in the event of death or divorce. The agreement can encompass children’s and grandparents’ rights, if desired. There are a few requirements that a nuptial agreement must meet before it becomes valid. These include the following conditions • The nuptial agreement must be written, signed, and notarized. • The agreement must include valid disclosure of assets and financial obligations between both parties. • Threats, force, or emotional duress must not have influenced the creation of the agreement. • Terms of the agreement must not appear unethical or lacking fairness. If nuptial agreements aren’t drafted correctly, they may do nothing but complicate things further. Unfortunately, just because you have created an agreement in writing doesn’t mean that it is presumed to be valid or enforceable. Therefore, it’s crucial that you have a nuptial agreement reviewed by a qualified lawyer to ensure everything is executed properly. Contact our offices for valuable advice on all matters relating to a nuptial agreement. Call today at (303) 670-9855 or visit our comprehensive website online at www.dslawcolorado.com for resources, videos, and more.

Advocates seek free school meals for all Colorado lawmakers want to make plan a reality BY JASON GONZALES CHALKBEAT COLORADO

It’s a tale common to creatives: move into a cheap, often ignored part of town, bring the area back to life with art, coffee and foot traffic, only to be priced out when high dollar galleries move in and the cost of real estate rises. Denver’s gentrification, while a blow
and farmers, parents and teachers wants to see Colorado continue this benefit into the future. “This is an incredible opportunity for our kids to continue to get access to meals and not have to worry about whether or not their families can afford it or whether or not their families have applied for assistance,” said Taylor Hubbard, an elementary parent from Bellvue in northern Colorado. “It’s just one less worry.” But Colorado lawmakers of both parties have concerns about the cost
of the proposal — an estimated $118 million a year — when the state has many other unmet education needs. After more than two hours of testimony March 2, the Senate Education Committee delayed a vote on Senate Bill 87 so the sponsors can look for ways to lower the cost. Bill sponsor state Sen. Brittany Pettersen, a Lakewood Democrat, said she’s confident Colorado lawmakers can prioritize the money to feed many more children than it did before the pandemic. But she and fellow bill spon-
sors plan to introduce amendments that would lower the cost, possibly excluding some districts with a greater number of higher-income families. The bill is also sponsored by state Sen. Rhonda Fields of Aurora and state Reps. Serena Gonzalez-Guitierrez of Denver and Dafna Michaelson Jenet of Commerce City. All of the prime sponsors are Democrats.
to artists and art lovers alike, is turning Lakewood’s 40 West Arts District into an attractive alternative. Nestled in a quirky, colorful stretch of West Colfax, 40 West has the grunge and grit required to keep the edge in the art and its creators. In recent years, NEXT Gallery, Edge Gallery and Pirate: Contemporary Art have all been drawn to the area. Lakewood Mayor Adam Paul said he’s thrilled to see CHAC moving into the district.
“Art is a great metaphor for diversity and inclusion,” he said. “It’s so great to see what’s happening in the 40 West District. We have the signs in the city that say ‘Welcome. We are building an inclusive comunity,’ and this is another great step in making that a reality.” The new CHAC Gallery will have its grand opening June 3. Gurulé says it will be a Generations show honoring the life of Alicia Cardenas, a CHAC member who was killed in the Decem-
ber 2021 shooting spree that took the lives of five victims. “She actually curated a show for us last summer. It was her idea to pair a seasoned artist with a younger artist for a possible mentorship relatioinship,” Gurulé said. “We wanted to do something to honor her legacy, so we’re starting a mentorship program connecting seasoned artists with upand-coming artists.” The CHAC Generations show will run through July.

also includes a new $15 minimum wage and paid family leave. Supporters say the recognition of Juneteenth is also a symbolic nod toward improving diversity and equity in state government. Juneteenth is now a paid holiday for Aurora city employees During the March 2 press con-
ference, Skip Miller, president of WINS, said that he never celebrated the holiday while growing up. It wasn’t until he moved to Colorado in the 80’s that he started attending annual Juneteenth celebrations in Denver’s Five Points neighborhood. “This is something that we have all fought for,” Miller said. “We’re gonna ensure that all people who call this state home can celebrate such a critical holiday.” The bill still needs to make its way through both chambers and receive the governor’s signature before it becomes official. Gov. Jared Polis said Wednesday that he supported the change. “By adopting Juneteenth as a state holiday, we’re paying tribute to the millions of Black Americans who endured indescribable suffering under the horrors of slavery,” Polis said. “But just as important, we elevate the celebration because at its heart, this is a joyous holi-
day.” If successful, the addition of Juneteenth would be Colorado’s second change to its list of official holidays in recent years. The state replaced Columbus Day with Frances Xavier Cabrini Day in 2020. Members of the Black caucus expect little pushback on the effort — a stark difference from when members pushed for the addition of MLK day in the 80’s, said Sen. Leslie Herod, the caucus’ chair. “The person who had my seat prior to me, Wilma Webb, fought and fought for five years to make the MLK holiday real under threat. She actually lost her seat on the budget committee,” Herod said. “We ain’t gonna have that same fight this year.”

Passionate for community health Colorado Access appoints Annie Lee as president, CEO BYCHRISTYSTEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Annie H. Lee first became interested in serving in health care when she was about 12 or 13 years old. “My mom and dad had health care needs,” she said. “I was a kid, just old enough to begin to understand the world, and I wanted to help.” Today, Lee has been appointed to serve as president and CEO of Colorado Access, a nonprofit public sector health plan. Lee assumed the role Feb. 14. “I’m humbled to be in this role,” Lee said. “I’m looking forward to building on the great work that’s already happening here.” Lee succeeds Marshall Thomas, who retired from the post after 16 years. “Lee is well known locally as a passionate and collaborative leader with expertise in Medicaid and community health,” Thomas said. “I’m confident that she will build upon existing momentum within the organization to ensure those who depend on us receive access to quality, affordable and culturally responsive care.” Lee has an extensive background serving in health care, intentionally focusing on the nonprofit sector. She served as senior director of Medicaid and charitable coverage programs at Kaiser Permanente Colorado, and prior to that, spent four years working at the Colorado Department of Health Care Policy and Financing. Her most recent role was executive director of community health and Medicaid strategies at Children’s Hospital Colorado. A resident of Denver’s Park Hill neighborhood, Lee was born on an Army base in Georgia. She grew up as a military child — her dad was in the Army — but the family eventually made its way to Colorado. Lee is a 1997 graduate of John F. Kennedy High School in west Denver and attended the University of Colorado-Boulder where she earned a degree in political science. She worked for a small consulting firm right out of college, but around that time, she “had a calling to work in public policy, specifically health care,” Lee said. “Law school seemed like a great idea.” Lee received her juris doctor degree from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law. While there, Lee enjoyed studying civil rights and health care.
Annie Lee has been appointed to serve as president and chief executive officer of Colorado Access, a nonprofit public sector health plan. She is the first woman and first person of color to assume the role. COURTESY OF WALNUT STREET GROUP LLC
Denver residents on Medicaid are Colorado Access members, but they may not know it, said Annie Lee, president and CEO of Colorado Access. Anybody with questions is encouraged to call 800-511-5010 or send an email to customer.service@coaccess.com. To learn more about the organization, visit coaccess.com. As the daughter of Korean immigrants, Lee and her brother are firstgeneration Korean Americans. She is the first woman, and the first person of color, to be CEO of Colorado Access. “As the needs of our members, providers and community continue to change, it was important for Colorado Access to be present and adapt,” said Bobby King, vice president of diversity, equity and inclusion at Colorado Access. “We focused our CEO search to recruit from a pool of health-care leaders, both locally and nationally, representing diverse backgrounds and experiences. This inclusive and thorough approach led us to Annie Lee right here in Colorado. As the first woman and person of color to lead Colorado Access, we are excited about Annie’s leadership and our journey ahead.” Lee feels honored to be part of a “larger, collaborative movement that is more inclusive,” she said. “It matters for people to see others in leadership positions who look like them,” Lee said, adding that she herself has had mentors who are women of color. Being from an immigrant family, Lee said there is a drive to work and to succeed while leaving behind everyone and everything they know. Her accomplishments, including her current role as CEO of Colorado Access, represent that journey, she said. “That is something I’m proud of,” Lee said.

Ancient Egypt beckons at DMNS
T
here are many reasons ancient Egypt looms so large in human imagination - the way they approached and shaped the world around them was monumental in all senses of the word. The impact they made on humanity is still echoing down to modern times and people can get a closer look at how they did all that at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. “This new exhibit features about 350 priceless artifacts from ancient Egypt, covering thousands of years from that remarkable country,” said Stephen E. Nash, the museum’s senior curator of archaeology. “It’s different for us in America to imagine the continuity of aesthetics there. They had everything — turmoil, joy, treaties, love… everything.” The traveling exhibit Egypt: The Time of Pharaohs runs at DMNS, 2001 Colorado Blvd. in Denver, through Sept. 5. The exhibition is as a joint venture between Lokschuppen Rosenheim, the University of Aberdeen Museums, the Roemer-und-Pelizaeus Museums Hildesheim and MuseumsPartner Austria, and is presented at the museum by Chevron. Visitors will be whisked back more than 5,000 years ago to when Egypt
became a state that unified numerous villages along the Nile River. Over the ensuing centuries, pharaohs and ordinary people created enormous edifices, delicate works of art and impressive feats of engineering. The exhibition covClarke Reader ers about 3,000 years of Egyptian culture by breaking things up into themes, including: • Religion and God, which details the role religion plays in everyday life, the power of the gods and their relationships to each other and the people. • Private Space, where visitors can walk into the living quarters of ancient Egyptians from different social strata and get a sense of how people of different ranks lived and worked together. • Personal Adornment, which highlights the makeup vessels, jewelry and other items that residents used to make themselves clean and beautiful and signal their station in society. “In order to understand humanity, you need to get a handle on Egypt, because Egypt is in a league of its own,”
COMING ATTRACTIONS
Nash said. “There are still a lot of people tremendously interested in ancient Egypt. What they accomplished is really one of the things that makes it great to be human.” As is always the case, the museum adds what Nash calls the “DMNS treatment,” where curators and volunteers add some touches that can only be seen in Denver. That includes the mummification cart, which teaches visitors about how Egyptians prepared for death. “I hope people come out of it with a better understanding of the breadth and depth of the human experience,” Nash said. “The purpose of anthropology is to make the world safe for human differences and that’s truer than ever today.” For more information, or to purchase a timed ticket, visit dmns.org/egypt.

Local company, Veteran owned, Integrity focused
SOLAR SYSTEMS
“While so much of student life is focused on achievement, MCA Denver believes that in order to create something original and authentic, it is necessary to risk failure,” said Sarah Kate Biae, director of programming for MCA Denver, in a news release. “The Failure Award is given not on the basis of academic merit or athletic prowess, but rather on a student’s demonstration of a willingness to take these risks.” To be eligible, applicants must be a resident of Colorado, graduate from a Colorado high school in the spring of 2022, plan to attend an accredited college or university in the fall of 2022 and be able to attend the MCA Denver Failure Awards on April 30. Applicants must also demonstrate “innovation, creativity, fearlessness and a willingness to risk failure in the pursuit of something new,” states a news release.
Finalists will be selected based on their project description and supporting documentation, demonstration of creative risk-taking and presentation, states the news release. Finalists will present their project to a panel of judges and the visiting public during the MCA Denver Failure Awards. Each student will have 10 minutes to present their work, and then will answer questions from the panel. Participants will be evaluated on originality, innovation and their ability to present a project within the theme of risking failure as an integral part of the creative process. Deadline to apply is April 1. Interested applicants can apply by creating an account to access the application through The Denver Foundation, or by visiting MCA Denver’s website at mcadenver.org.

Women march on
n March, we celebrate women in history, which was also one of my favorite classes in college. Learning the timeline of how and when we got our right to vote, when we entered the workforce and how we have transformed society by generation is fascinating to me. In some interviews I recently attended with two Castle View High School interns, we talked to FROM THE several generations of women on how education has changed throughout history. EDITOR It was fascinating to listen to a woman raised during the World War II era vs. the millennial now. Our Silent Generation guest talked about how being proper was much more important than an education. She talked about her dad telling her she was here to get married and have children. She did not attend college. She talked about how much she loved her job at a bank that she Thelma Grimes had to quit once she became pregnant, noting that even though she was married, women did not show their pregnancies in public. Then, we talked to her daughter who was told by her parents that they had a savings account that was supposed to go toward her wedding. Instead, her parents agreed to let her go to college. She, being in the baby boomer generation, was the only female in the engineering program. For the millennial female, there was no other option. Her parents made it clear she would go to college, and she would succeed on her own merits. For me, there are so many women that I have come to know and respect over the years. It is hard to list all of them. First, I will list my mom. She did not have a career or go to college, but she raised me and my brothers and quite a few other kids in and around our family. While I just call her mom, many kids around me called her “Step-in-Mom” or “Pattymom.” I never wanted to be a stay-at-home mom like her. What I truly respect about my mom is that she accepted that I did not want the same path as she and other women in my family. While she did not completely understand my career ambitions, she supported them. She helped me reach my goals and I respect and appreciate her for doing that for me. She had to wait a long time for grandkids, but I eventually fulfilled that dream for her. Besides my mom, I must bring up the women I currently work with at Colorado Community Media. In the media industry, it is no secret that is has been a maledominated field. Women have steadily worked their way up. At Colorado Community Media, I could not be prouder of the changes that have taken place in 2021 and 2022. We have Linda Shapley serving as our publisher, bringing decades of experience. We have Lisa Schlichtman serving as our executive editor, bringing decades of experience. We have Kristin Fiore and myself serving as regional editors, bringing decades of experience. Christy Steadman oversees the Denver monthlies. And, we have a slew of young journalists who I cannot brag about enough. In the south, we have Jessica Gibbs and Elliott Wenzler making us proud week after week. It would take a lot more space to list all the amazing women we have working hard in every department to get the news to you every week but they all deserve praise and adoration. The women at CCM are strong, dedicated and born leaders and I am proud to call all of them my work family. Thelma Grimes is the South Metro Editor for Coloroado Community Media.

Energizing our engagement
ope fuels purpose, purpose drives passion, passion engages performance, and performance delivered equals results. It begins with hope and ends in results. What is this “it” that begins with hope and ends in results? The answer is, it is anything that you want “it” to be. When we consider anything that we endeavor to do or are currently trying to do, when we add hope to it, we set off a series of other triggers that energizes our engagement. And we can energize our engagement, the execution or performance will surely follow. We all have hope for something, we have dreams, and we have goals. We have hopes, dreams, and goals for our business and for our personal lives. If we are not where we think we should be, what we might be experiencing in both our personal and professional lives is disengagement. We have the ideas, we have written out our plans, we have started to move towards executing against our plans, and then for some reason we stop. Our interest or engagement in the project or whatever we were doing has weakened. This week I was having this discussion with a friend of mine. She shared with me that she just seems to have lost interest in so many things. She shared that these past two years have been very hard on her mentally, physically, emotionally and even spiritually. The pandemic, society, politics and now the war have left her feeling numb and confused. She is struggling with getting excited about her work and has lost interest in the things that used to bring her joy and happiness in her personal life too. We talked for a long time, and after a while I asked her what she was hoping for in life. At first, she said that she had lost hope, and she was feeling hopeless and helpless. We talked some more about that, and then I said that I was sure that she must have hope for something, we all do. She thought about it and still shrugged. So, I reminded her of the eight things Zig Ziglar used to say that we all have hope for: happiness, good health, prosperity, security, friendship, peace of mind, good family relationships and a brighter future. And I

LETTER TO THE EDITOR CSP seeks help in reducing fatalities Over the last few months, I have asked the motoring public to join the Colorado State Patrol in driving down the number of fatalities on our state’s roadways. While I firmly believe this effort can only be realized through a majority of our drivers consciously participating through safe driving behavior, I also want to share how your Colorado State Patrol members are taking action. Law enforcement agencies across the nation are experiencing the same strain on their workforce that most industries are facing, so the Patrol is working strategically to do more with less. We have leaned into what our agency’s crash investigation data is telling us, so we can focus our enforcement on the most predictable behaviors that cause serious crashes in Colorado. In addition, we are advancing our use of data to pinpoint where and when crashes are most prevalent. In late 2021, the Colorado State Patrol initiated surge operations in predictable, high crash areas and these efforts yielded the best possible result - no fatalities in those areas.

asked her if any of these might be something that she also had hope for in her own life. As we dug in a little deeper on each one the eight things mentioned above, her demeanor changed. Her body language shifted from disinterested to engaged. She even started taking notes and writing reminders for herself of things she wanted to follow up on. And by the time Michael Norton we parted ways that day, I could literally see the hope in her eyes. My goal was not to try and resolve her issues, all I did was to give her something to think about, hope. Look around at your family members, circle of friends, teammates and employees. Do you see hope in their eyes, does it manifest itself in their work ethic, attitude, and overall engagement? If you are seeing or experiencing disengagement at home or at work, I encourage you to start a conversation around hope. A team without hope of winning the next game will probably not practice. A student who has no hope of passing a test will more than likely not study. A salesperson with no hope of making the sale may never pick up the telephone. A spouse with no hope for the relationship will soon stop trying. Give those who matter the most the best gift you can ever give them, give them the gift of hope. Hope is the trigger to purpose, passion, performance, and results. Hope is not a strategy; hope is the secret ingredient to engaging in our goals and dreams. Could you or anyone you know use a little hope right now? I would love to hear your story at mnorton@xinnix.com, and when we can energize our engagement with hope, it really will be a better than good year.

Troopers continue to couple what we learn from our data with their knowledge of local traffic patterns and problem areas. This complete approach allows our members to build a more impactful enforcement plan and remain visible. Yet, we will always need your partnership. As we continually improve what we can gain from our data, implement intermittent surge operations and steadily grow back our number of troopers, we also have to accept that the quality of our lives greatly depends on individuals. Drivers collectively decide how safe or how dangerous our roadways will be each time the ignition turns over. Whether there are 100 Colorado State Troopers or 10,000, there will never be a law enforcement officer at every mile marker to catch every bad action. Your Colorado State Patrol will commit to working smarter with every resource at our disposal. Now this is where you come in. Join us in making Colorado a safe place to drive again. Col. Matthew C.

HIGHLIGHTING DENVER AUTHORS Christy Steadman | csteadman@coloradocommunitymedia.com
Phil Goodstein: “The Ghosts of Denver: Capitol Hill,” revised fifth edition Author Phil Goodstein decided it was time to bring one of his books into the 21st century 25 years after its original publication. “The Ghosts of Denver: Capitol Hill” was first published in 1996. All copies of the book had been sold, and Goodstein decided another revision was needed. Now in its fifth revised edition, the book is about 100 pages longer than the original and includes new, additional stories, new photos — some vintage and some contemporary — and some new additions to the stories included in the 1996 version. One of the new stories in the fifth revision is about the Winbro, an art deco building at 1620 Grant St. that serves as apartment homes. This building, Goodstein said, “is perhaps haunted by a health inspector.” Along with stories people may have not heard before, the book also includes the old favorites, such as the tale about Cheesman Park — the city’s original cemetery. Goodstein is the author of about 30 titles on Denver. He has lived in Denver nearly all his life. He is a graduate of East High School and returned to Denver’s Capitol Hill neighborhood after college. In the 1980s, Goodstein was a contributor to the Life on Capitol Hill newspaper, and during that time, he did a series on the neighborhood. That series eventually turned into a book, which sold out by the mid-1990s. He believes people in Denver enjoy reading about their city. “By having a sense of pride in place, residents naturally have a greater commitment to a flourishing commonwealth,” Goodstein said. Goodstein also hosts walking tours of Denver and started offering his ghost tours sometime in the late 1980s. But the “The Ghosts of Denver: Capitol Hill” is about much more than ghosts, Goodstein said. “It’s about Capitol Hill. It’s about the people, the place, what makes the neighborhood,” Goodstein said. “It belongs in the library of anybody who is proud to call Capitol Hill home.” Q&A with Phil Goodstein What makes Denver such an interesting topic to write about? I turned my attention to Denver in the early 1980s, shortly after I gained my doctorate and concluded there was no place for me in academia. In part, my interest in the city stemmed from frustration. Crucial parts of it did not seem to work. I wanted to find out why. In the process, I saw it as a civic obligation to share my research with others. I have enjoyed presenting alternative views about the nature of the city, including the workings of RTD and city planners. What did you find most enjoyable about working on the fifth revision of “The Ghosts of Denver: Capitol Hill?”
BEST OF THE BEST
2022 BEST OF THE
BEST VOTE NOW! Revising the book was a much greater challenge than I expected. If nothing else, it forced me to review the changing nature of my writing style and how much I and the city have changed over the last 25 years. In part, I enjoyed discovering that some of the photos I had taken and notes I had accumulated since the first edition were of extreme value in orienting the book for the 21st century. What do you enjoy most about doing the Ghost Tours, and are some of the stories in the book told during the tours? There is an inter-relationship between conducting the ghost tours and writing the book. I joke at the beginning of my ghost tours that I am qualified to conduct them since I wrote the book on the topic. The book states I am qualified to write it since I give the tours. Conducting the tours forces me to emphasize the highlights of the stories about people, places and folklore. It is different than writing a straight factual account in a history text. The tours also permit me to see the constant changes in the area, so preparing for necessary revisions of the book and the living, ever-changing world in which we live.

LIFE
After decades of decline, populations flutter back. BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Walk into Westminster’s Butterfly Pavilion and head into Wings of the Tropics, where about 2,000 butterflies flutter in a tropical garden filled with plants, trees and humidity. Near the entrance there is a hatching exhibit where cocoons transform into butterflies. Peer in the window next to the display, and Shiran Hershcovich may be working in the lab with others to make community science come alive. Hershcovich is a lepidopterist, a person who studies butterflies and moths, and most recently, she discovered monarch butterflies may be making a comeback in Colorado. “We are enthused to find that monarchs in Colorado showed an approximate 180% increase from the mean over the past seven years of our monitoring efforts,” Hershcovich said. This rise in monarch numbers in the state is the most significant increase in the past 30 years, according to the 2021 Colorado Butterfly Monitoring Network report. The network — which Hershcovich describes as “people-powered” — sends community scientists out into designated areas and trails to count butterflies across Colorado. Butterfly-monitoring programs also operate across the country, including California, Florida, Illinois, Michigan and Texas. This is the ninth annual report from the net-
work, and 2021 stood out as having the highest number of volunteer hours recorded since the program’s inception. Important invertebrates As pollinators, butterflies help keep ecosystems alive, Hershcovich explained. By pollinating native plants, they are propagating biological systems, and they serve as important food sources at every step in their life cycle. They also indicate healthy ecosystems because butterflies are picky eaters. The monarch’s host plant is milkweed, and it will only reproduce on milkweed. Therefore, if its host plant is decimated, the butterfly will be the first to disappear. In addition, butterflies help connect people to species of insects. “They are great ambassador animals,” Herschcovich said. “They can be a great gateway point into loving insects. If we started with roaches, it would be pretty hard to get people on board.” The monarch’s steady decline According to Herschcovich, there are two populations of monarch butterflies: Eastern monarchs and Western monarchs, with the Rockies sitting in between the two. And while the recent increase in monarchs is promising news, Herschcovich noted the species has been in a steady decline for decades. Since the 1980s, the Western monarch saw its population decline by 99%, and the Eastern monarch population has decreased by around 80% since the 1990s, Hershcovich said. Even so, the species continues to be denied federal protection from the Endangered Species Act. “Monarchs are one of them too, but they just didn’t make it to the priority, and they didn’t meet all the criteria, I guess,” she said. Without government protection, Hershcovich said, conservation becomes vitally important, and that’s where community science can make a difference. Volunteer conservationists Community scientists can be anyone — a neighbor, a teacher, the average Joe. All it takes is some time to train and explore. Steve Chady, the Pavilion’s longest serving vol-
unteer at eight years and a wannabe lepidopterist since age 12, is one of those community scientists. Between May 15 and Sept. 15, he heads out to Broomfield County Commons Park six times to complete the same walk while counting as many butterflies as he sees. “If you enjoy outdoors and you’re passionate about the environment, it’s a way to contribute to conservation,” Chady said. “Everyone comes with a built-in scientist,” Hershcovich said. “Science is just being curious and having that sense of exploration and looking

for answers.” Without 61 volunteers counting butterflies across Colorado, the monitoring study would not be possible, and the effort is always looking for more volunteers. In total, the group counted 124 Eastern monarchs in Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Broomfield, Douglas, El Paso, Gilpin, Jefferson, Larimer, Ouray, Routt and Weld counties. “We only know those numbers because of community scientists, so it’s people dedicated to the cause, who are going out and donating their time to count monarch populations,” Herschcovich said. She said the percentage increase in monarchs recorded this year took into account volunteer hours to provide a more accurate number. Because the report relies on volunteers, some years see more hours counting butterflies than others. Counting butterflies aids conservation efforts. Herschcovich noted that conservation can seem like a major problem with only major solutions, and she sees that line of thinking applied to climate change as well. Yet, she believes some answers can be simpler than most folks may think. “Community scientists really take matters into their own hands and revolutionize what we can do for conservation,” she said. Climate change, wildfires, droughts, urbanization, herbicides and many other factors contribute to the decline of butterflies, and Hershcovich said it all comes down to habitat. “When there are big SEE MONARCH, P11

droughts and water sources disappear or diminish, the host plant (ex. Milkweed) habitat also diminishes, and when we expand urban zones, we also essentially erase healthy habitat for monarchs, and when we plant gardens instead of planting native plants — we put grassy lawns — that’s also removing additional habitat,” she said. She said the 2019 and 2020 fire seasons were probably linked to the large declines during those years. On the flip side, she explained the increase in monarchs — both nationally and across the state — is likely due to more favorable climate conditions such as milder temperatures during the breeding season and better rainfall. She also noted decreased use of pesticides and more monarch conservationists planting milkweeds and native flowering plants to support the species as other factors contributing to the rise in monarch numbers. “While it’s difficult to point to a single cause of increase, it’s likely an aggregation of behaviors and conditions that have boosted monarch num-

bers around the country,” she said. Colorado residents can help restore monarchs and other butterflies by planting native plant species in their own yards, and the Pavilion has those plants for sale in the spring. “Everyone gets to participate in creating a safer world for monarchs and invertebrates in general, and really ecosystems,” Herschcovich said.
