“We love it here!” said Lorin Ringor, a local mom perusing the free pumpkin patch with her son.

“I love the activities for kids, the little shops … there is a variety of everything.”

The day was extremely windy, resulting in a chaotic scene as vendors worked quickly to keep their tents from flying away. Regardless of the gusty winds, the vendors seemed excited to be at the Kiowa Harvest Festival this year.

One of the local vendors at the festival was Lori Hammett of Grammy’s Brittle & More. During the event, Hammett stood proudly under her tent as she welcomed customers to sample some of her century-old recipes passed down

Every decade after the national census, counties throughout the country are tasked with redrawing lines for commissioners’ districts based on shifting population.

The three Elbert County commissioners met with the Elbert County Department of Elections on Oct. 20 to go over map proposals in the county government building in Kiowa.

Elbert County Clerk and Recorder Dallas Schroeder led the meeting and presented the commissioners with potential new district maps.

Schroeder was excited to share that the department was funded to use GIS (Geographic Information Systems) techniques to measure population and create the most accurate maps possible.

In creating the new districts, the Elbert County Department of Elections has certain criteria to follow.

They aim to make each district as equal as possible in numbers of voting-eligible population. They also aim to divide the districts based on main roads and major terrain features without dividing subdivisions.

Leaders from both the Elbert County Democratic and Republican parties were consulted by the county elections department when creating sample maps for the commissioners’ consideration.

The Oct. 20 presentation was supposed to be given in electronic format, but after failed attempts to launch the presentation on two

Kiowa Harvest Festival is rural revelry Event is held for third time, draws crowd of fun-loving folks

BY CHANCY J. GATLIN-ANDERSON SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

With the crisp fall air making its way into the rolling hills of Elbert County, towns throughout the area are holding festivals to bring communities together before the onset of snow.

The Town of Kiowa held its third annual Kiowa Harvest Festival on Oct. 9, bringing families from all over Elbert County and beyond to partake in country fall activities and experience the area’s beauty and Western vibe.

Laura Jakos and her daughter

Genevieve Jakos traveled from Aurora to experience the Kiowa Harvest Festival this year. “We try to do at least one country-type activity every year,” said Jakos. “We were really excited to see all the fun games set up for the kids.”

Because the festival was so large, it was divided into two separate locations. The vendors and free pumpkin patch were situated behind Forty Mile Feed off Highway 86, while more than 20 games for children were spread throughout Nordman Memorial Park. Festivalgoers were able to hop on a horsedrawn wagon to make their way from one location to another.

The Town of Kiowa donated hundreds of pumpkins for attendees to take home for free. The pumpkins were strewn about the front portion of the Forty Mile Feed property. Bales of hay were placed

A second life for lost luggage at DIA

Airport donates forgotten bags to Denver Rescue Mission

BY AMANDA HORVATH ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

Denver International Airport handles a massive amount of luggage every year. In 2019, the last full year before the COVID-19 pandemic, 69 million passengers traveled through the airport with bags in tow. Some of those travelers left their empty bags behind.

Sometimes people will throw away their luggage because they want to consolidate their things to save on baggage fees. Or, maybe a wheel or zipper breaks and they leave a suitcase at the airport.

DIA collects whatever is left behind.

“Once we find that luggage that is clearly being abandoned — being set next to a trash can — we don’t want that just to be thrown away in a central landfill, especially when there is ... a higher and better purpose that it can go to,” said Scott Morrissey, vice president of sustainability for DIA. Enter Denver Rescue Mission.

The nonprofit organization works to create change in the lives of people experiencing homelessness in Denver. Part of its mission includes the Ministry Outreach

Piles of lost luggage sit waiting, stored on a shelf at Denver International Airport. Now, the airport plans to begin donating that COURTESY OF DENVER INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT luggage to the Denver Rescue Mission.

Center, located in Denver’s Park Hill neighborhood.

“One part is the warehouse, the

home of all of our supplies. Any non-cash donation comes through the warehouse and is received here, stored here, sorted out, and then distributed from here,” said Jesse Ludema, the director of the Ministry Outreach Center.

At the center, the abandoned pieces of luggage get a new purpose. About every month or so, Denver Rescue Mission picks up a batch of empty suitcases and bags from DIA to distribute to the unhoused community it serves.

“For many people in the homeless community they have very few belongings,” said Ludema.

“And so if you’re walking around and trying to get back on your feet, having something to store your possessions in is really important.”

This particular partnership with a focus on luggage donations between DIA and Denver Rescue Mission started about three years ago. In 2018, Morrissey said the airport donated 835 pieces of luggage, and in 2019, it gave 719 pieces.

Morrissey does say in 2020, that number was much lower, likely because the number of passengers who went through DIA dropped significantly due to COVID-19.

“Not a huge amount in the context of 69 million passengers.

But they are bags that can go and have a second life and support the clients of the Denver Rescue Mission,” said Morrissey.

So far in 2021 donations are still lower than at the start of the partnership, again with passenger numbers not quite at where they were pre-pandemic. But any donation can make a big difference in a person’s life. “[It is] a need that we don’t often think of. We think of food, cloth-

ing, the essentials, but something to carry that in is critically important. So it is a need that is expressed often,” said Ludema.

And that need has grown even more in just the last year. The Metro Denver Homeless Initiative conducts a “Point in Time Count” to determine how many people are experiencing homelessness in the Denver area. This year’s count found the number of people experiencing homelessness for the first time doubled from 2020 to 2021.

“I think anyone who has worked with the homeless community here in Denver has seen the need increase for more resources, for more items just overall,” said Ludema. “It seems like we need to find a better way to help our homeless brothers and sisters in need.”

It seems now more than ever nonprofits like Denver Rescue Mission could use the help.

Thankfully, Ludema says this luggage donation partnership is just one of many beneficial partnerships. Most major grocery store chains in Colorado donate leftover food, several food banks help out regularly, and different individuals or companies often come to Denver Rescue Mission with donations.

“There’s just probably hundreds of companies that may do drives every single year or twice a year, and may say, ‘Hey, we want to get our company together and collect coats, or we want to collect hygiene products, or what is it that you need us to collect?’” said Ludema, “I’m really blown away by people’s generosity to help.”

And that’s exactly how the relationship with DIA started. At first, it was donations of unused food SEE LUGGAGE, P4

Colo. hospital ICUs fill up amid COVID surge Polis: ‘Get protected. Get vaccinated. Get boosted.’

BY JOHN INGOLD THE COLORADO SUN

Gov. Jared Polis issued his most urgent plea in months Oct. 21, asking Coloradans to get vaccinated against coronavirus in order to break a continued surge in hospitalizations that left the state with only 120 available intensive care beds.

Looking into the camera that was live streaming his news conference, Polis spoke directly to unvaccinated Coloradans, saying: “We want you here. We want you to be healthy. Please get vaccinated.”

As of Oct. 21, more than 1,100 people were hospitalized in Colorado with confirmed cases of COVID-19, the highest number since last December. What is different this time, though, is the state has largely reopened, meaning hospitals are also filling up with victims of car accidents and other day-today events.

During normal times, the state’s intensive care units would operate at about 68% full, said Scott Bookman, the state health department’s COVID-19 incident commander.

Now, though, Colorado’s hospital ICUs are operating at around 90% of capacity, running the risk that they could be overwhelmed if the surge of coronavirus cases continues.

Bookman said hospitals are postponing necessary but nonemergent surgeries — preserving capacity but delaying valuable medical care to patients who need it. Polis said the state is ready to implement crisis standards of care plans if needed, a move that would authorize hospitals to prioritize who receives treatment when their capacity is overrun.

“We are nearing the capacity of our hospitals,” Polis said.

Bookman echoed that concern, saying, “The trajectory of hospitalizations continues to go up, making me even more concerned about what this is going to do to the capacity of our hospitals to be able to take care of patients.”

This chart from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment shows trends in coronavirus hospitalizations as of Oct. 21. (Screenshot by John Ingold, The Colorado Sun) About 79% of those currently hospitalized with COVID-19 are unvaccinated, according to data from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. And those who are hospitalized and unvaccinated also skew younger.

The average age of an unvaccinated person who is hospitalized in Colorado right now is 57, compared with an average age of 73 for the vaccinated.

In addition to urging unvaccinated people to get the shot, Polis also said older Coloradans should receive a booster shot. He cited newly released data from vaccine maker Pfizer showing that a booster shot of its vaccine was more than 95% effective at preventing symptomatic cases of COVID-19.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Oct. 20 approved booster shots for people who received the Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines, to go along with a previous approval of boosters for Pfizer recipients. At press time, an expert panel at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention still needed to give its OK. Pfizer booster shots have been authorized for all people ages 65 or older, along with people who have high-risk medical conditions or who work in high-risk settings.

The Moderna approval is expected to follow similar guidelines.

Boosters for Johnson & Johnson are expected to be available for all people who received the vaccine.

The Space Foundation is inviting art students to enter the 12th annual International Student Art Contest.

The 2022 International Student Art Contest theme is “Living, Working and Playing on the Moon.” Entries must be original, space-oriented artwork, and can be a drawing, painting, mixed media or digital work.

Founded in 1983, the Space Foundation Headquarters and Discovery Center is a Colorado Springs based nonprofit that offers “a gateway to information, education and collaboration for space exploration and space-inspired industries that define the global space ecosystem,” its website says.

The art contest encourages youth “to use their creative gifts and curiosity to explore the wonders of space and the exciting possibilities in science, technology, engineering and mathematic fields.

The contest provides a chance for students to showcase their talents, and presents an opportunity for parents, teachers and communities to spark a love of STEM in young people through the lens of space,”

systems are already eligible for a booster shot regardless of which vaccine they received.

The rising levels of concern in Colorado stand in contrast to what is happening in the nation at large.

Across the United States, coronavirus cases and hospitalizations are falling.

During the previous several months, while the virus’ delta variant tore through health care systems around the country, Colorado had managed to have some of the lowest hospitalization and case rates in the country. Now, Colorado has the 10th-highest infection rate and 20th-highest hospitalization rate among all states, according to The New York Times’ case tracker.

Since the beginning of October, about 20 people a day in Colorado have died with COVID-19. As recently as this summer, that number was around four or five people a day. More than 8,000 people in Colorado have now died due to the

The Oct. 21 news conference was notable for the language Polis used in hoping to prevent more deaths.

Repeatedly, he urged unvaccinated people to show care for themselves by getting the shot. Slightly less than 30% of Coloradans who are old enough to get vaccinated are not fully immunized.

“Never in my wildest imagination did I think there would be Coloradans that didn’t want to protect themselves,” Polis said, recalling the day the first vaccine doses arrived in the state.

He later added: “Show that you love yourself. Show that you support your friends and family that want you to be here for many years to come. Get protected. Get vaccinated. Get boosted.”

Spiders: It’s that time of year Common spiders that sneak into your home and how to deal with them

BY OLIVIA JEWELL LOVE OLOVE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

This time of year, eight-legged creatures can take a crisp fall breeze as an open invitation into our homes.

James Fiala, owner of Environmental Pest Control, sees people dealing with spiders indoors during this time of year.

“All spiders are going to try to get in. They try to overwinter is what they do,” he said.

Fiala has some tips for unwelcome guests in your home as it gets colder.

“Vacuum cleaners are very powerful pest control tools,” he said.

He recommends vacuuming around the edges of your house and avoid storing things right by entry doors.

“I always tell people: Minimize what you have by the foundation of the house, clear out the window wells of your house. Window wells are chronic for spiders, by the way.”

Fiala says now is a great time to clean out your window wells, which you should be doing twice a year. They can serve as breeding grounds and hospitable habitats for spiders trying to overwinter in your home.

He also says caulking, sealing and

using weather-stripping around doors and windows can be good deterrents for insects and rodents.

Fiala recommends if you see a spider that does not look friendly, do not be afraid to use your shop vacuum to get rid of it, or even break out the glue traps to mitigate future problems.

Take a spin through this list of a few common spiders that could sneak into your house this fall.

Funnel weaver spiders Funnel weaver spiders are the most common spiders found in Colorado homes this time of the year. These spiders are harmless to humans but resemble the brown recluse, which does not naturally occur in Colorado. Funnel weaver spiders are darker brown and lack the characteristic “violin” shape that brown recluses have on their backs.

Ground spiders Ground spiders usually reside under rocks or logs and only come out to hunt prey. When the weather turns cold, some species of ground spiders wander indoors. They are harmless to humans.

Wolf spiders Wolf spiders are gray and brown, and some species can get quite large and are mistaken for tarantulas.

Wolf spiders may enter areas of new development that disturb their habitat but are generally shy around humans. Larger species may bite.

There are many species of wolf spiders. They can grow up to 35 mm and are usually SHUTTERSTOCK IMAGE earth-toned in color.

Widow spiders Widow spiders build their homes in dark undisturbed areas, like old animal burrows, window wells, cellars, garage corners and crawl spaces. Red and orange markings on the underside of the abdomen is a physical characteristic of a widow spider. The widow spider has a painful bite, and it contains nerve venom, which can be dangerous.

Brown recluse spiders Brown Recluse spiders are

rare in Colorado because of the climate. They can be found along the Mississippi Valley, and sometimes they hitch a ride on travelers into the state. The brown recluse has a characteristic “violin” marking on its back.

The spider’s venom is damaging to human cells.

This list is not all inclusive of the spiders in Colorado. To find more on common spiders in the area, CSU extension provides more information.

Standing straight: New treatments for an old problem New surgical techniques mean faster recovery for scoliosis patients

BY BELEN WARD BWARD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

hornton’s Bailee White is a pretty typical sixth-grader who likes to swim and do gymnastics. Thanks to some new personalized treatments, she has a pretty good shot at continuing to get to enjoy both for the rest of her life.

Bailee was born with scoliosis and had been in and out of Denver’s Children’s Hospital since she was born. Her pediatrician noticed something was off and recommended Bailee’s parents consult with the orthopedic department.

She was diagnosed with scoliosis – an abnormal sideways curving of the spine – before she could walk, but early on Janice White, Bailee’s mom knew she didn’t want to put her daughter in a back brace.

“We decided once she was 11-years old we were going to do surgery. We were all excited, and Bailee was excited to have it done,

too, before she went into middle school,” Janice said.

Bailee had her surgery on May 11 this year. She was back up on her feet and walking within a few hours and, a few weeks later, she was doing her favorite activities – including backbends.

“They discharged her with no restrictions. As soon as we went home, I had a checklist of the types of stretches she could do to get herself back to normal. Because she’s a child, they heal so fast and they’re so active, they do not give them any restrictions on bending,” Janice said.

The quick turnaround was due to some new methods, according to Children’s Hospital Pediatric and Orthopedic and Spine Surgeon Dr. Sumeet Garg.

“We used a brand-new technology, customizing rods for Bailee’s scoliosis, (which is) a three-dimensional curvature of the spine, “ Garg said. “It’s an abnormal twisting or curvature. Sometimes they are born with it, but most commonly it’s developed during the adolescent years.”

Garg, who came to Children’s from St. Louis, has been a pediatric spine surgeon since 2010, said doctors are unsure just what triggers scoliosis in adolescence.

“Most kids who develop in adolescence, we don’t know why it happened,” Garg said. “There’s a word called ‘idiopathic’. It’s a kind of a generic word that is used for a lot of medical diseases. It means no known cause, so it’s called Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis.”

But they do know that it’s best to treat children, and the younger the better. Left alone, it can be disabling to an adult.

“The reason we treat children when they’re younger is that with anything in medicine, younger kids recover faster, “ Garg said.

“They have fewer complications or problems with surgery, we can get them straighter and back to a normal alignment much better than adults. Which is why when the curves get big enough, it’s recommended to treat them.”

Preparation versus intuition The basic type of spinal surgery has been done since the 1950s but there has been a lot of development in recent years that make it safer, with better results and quicker recovery, Garg said.

“In the past, when taking care of these kids in the operating room, the metal rod that you use to realign the spine was one long rod,” Garg said. “So while in surgery they would make measurements of the area, cut the metal rods, and use metal benders to bend it into the shape to fit the patient.

The doctor had to use judgment on the length and bends of the rod.

It’s how it was done for years.”

But the basic methodology changed in 2020. Doctors now use a computerized simulation based on their patient’s x-rays to simulate the correction of the

spine ahead of the surgery. They can create a model of what the spine should look like and what the ideal rod would be to hold that three-dimensionally improved shape.

“So instead of having to cut and bend the rod in surgery the metal is forged into that specific shape and length,” Garg said. “So in surgery, when it’s time to place that rod to straighten the child’s back, you already have it planned out (how) to pull the spine to the rod to get a three-dimensionally appropriate correction.”

Preparation beats intuition, Garg added.

“I believe by pre-planning it, we can do a better job than just intuition, using our experience and guessing in surgery.”

The rods stay in place as the child grows and are designed to provide support lifelong.

The metal rod is meant to be tissue-specific, so the surgeon chooses between two different metals, titanium, and a cobalt chrome alloy. How patients’ scoliosis presents and what the surgeon expects to determine what metals get used.

“With a lot of medicine, and you may see this in other fields, we’re trying more to personalized surgery, so instead of one size fits all, we are trying to customize the surgery to the patient to give them a better result,” Garg said.

For Bailee’s surgery, they used a cobalt chrome alloy, which allows for a little bit more powerful correction than titanium.

Avoiding back pain Without surgery, Bailee’s curve would have continued to worsen as she got older, even into adulthood, Garg said. Adults who have scoliosis often suffer from back pain as the curvature becomes bigger and more visually apparent.

“Their shoulders will be uneven and may develop a hump in their back, “ Garg said. “They lose selfconfidence and self-esteem. When you put those two reasons with the progressive deformity and the progressive pain – its the main reasons that families may choose to have surgery as a teenager adolescent.”

Bailee is in the sixth grade now and her favorite subjects are art and science.

“When I grow up I want to be a nurse,” she said.

“The best part about these efforts in terms of research and innovation, we are seeing our kids get back to sports quicker because it’s a big deal to have a surgery like this. It’s rewarding to see them recover and get through the hard times after surgery, but within a few weeks,” said Garg. “The families don’t have to worry anymore, it’s a sense of relief for the families. It’s joyous to see them succeeding, excelling whether its athletics, school, arts, or drama, whatever they enjoy doing, we just want to get them back to that.”

Denver poised for World Cup bid City is one of 17 in the U.S. hoping to land part of 2026 event

BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

There are a lot of things that go into Denver’s efforts to land part of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. There’s the overall interest in youth soccer. There’s a desire to be part of an expanded tournament field in 2026 (48 countries will earn spots), And there’s a desire to show off Denver to the rest of the nation and the world.

“This will be 10 times the size of the Euro Cup,” said Manny Rodriguez, the co-chairman of the committee making the bid to bring the World Cup to town. “It’s the world’s biggest sporting event.

It drew 3.5 billion viewers in 2018.

Our biggest sporting event is the Super Bowl, and 150 million people tune in.

“Soccer is the world’s game.”

Three North American nations – Canada, the United States and Mexico – are bidding to host part of the World Cup. In the U.S., 17 cities are expected to submit bids.

Ten will make the first round of cuts.

Eventually, three cities will win out, organizers said.

Matthew Payne, the executive director of Denver Sports, said Denver has hosted other big-time sporting events, including this summer’s Major League Baseball all-star game.

“We have the infrastructure. We have the stadium, the hotels, the arenas,” he said. “We’ve hosted high-capacity matches at Empower Field at Mile High (where most of the matches would take place). It’s a global city. When people visit, businesses often end up here.”

Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City has hosted World Cup qualifying events, including a snowstorm-laced contest in 2013 between the United States and Costa Rica. But the home of the Colorado Rapids isn’t part of Denver’s bid.

“It’s not large enough,” Payne said. “With the anticipated crowds, we’d need a place that seats above 50,000 people. The average attendance in 1994 (the last time the U.S. hosted a World cup) was 70,000. Dick’s could be used as a training site.”

Rodriguez said the economic benefit to the area could approach $360 million from hotels, restaurants, lodging and tourism-related activities.

“We have 52,000 hotel rooms and 12,000 in the downtown core,” Payne said. “Most are within walking distance of the stadium.

Think of the number of hotels that weren’t here four years ago.

Then think of the number of hotels that will be built between now and when the World Cup comes.”

“In 2026, the field expands to 46 teams. Folks who travel to see their teams play have economic

‘Denver has unique things to offer.

power,” Rodriguez said. “They come for days at a time. Some come for weeks.”

Area taxpayers won’t have to foot a bill, other than buying a ticket of admission.

The altitude isn’t as big a problem as one might think. Rodriguez said three cities in Mexico are higher in elevation than Denver.

The weather could work to Denver’s advantage, too.

“Denver has unique things to offer,” Rodriguez said. “We have the best airport in the world. If you think about some of the coastal cities in New York, Miami, they have higher humidity. Our average temperature is in the 80s. It doesn’t rain a lot in the summer here.”

The timing of games that start in the Mountain Time Zone may not matter to people who love their soccer.

“If a country is playing at 4 a.m., people will get up and watch. Or they will record it,” Rodriguez said. “People in some countries will stay up regardless of what time it starts.”

Rodriguez said soccer is the No. 1 participatory sport in the state, thanks in part to youngsters who take part in youth soccer.

“Youth soccer could grow exponentially,” Rodriguez said. “This community is diverse. Soccer is going to grow with people who love the game more and more.”

The target months for the 2026 World Cup are sometime in June or July. The 2022 World Cup will take place in about a year in Qatar, owing to the extremely hot summers in that part of the world. Rodriguez said next year’s event will be the first to be contested outside the summer months.

Fan Expo Denver reunites fandoms for fun

BY CLARKE READER SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

When it was announced back in December that Pop Culture Classroom was cancelling the 2021 Denver Pop Culture Con, it appeared that it was going to be two full years before fans of all things comics, science fiction and fantasy were able to get together.

But like Thanos himself once said, fandom is inevitable.

Now, “Fan Expo Denver: Special Edition” is here, thanks to a partnership with Pop Cultural Classroom, an organization that uses pop culture to increase educational opportunities, inclusivity and diversity, and Fan Expo HQ, the largest comic con producer in the country.

“We’ve all stayed inside, supported our health care heroes, and done our part to keep our communities safe, and now, we’re thrilled to finally come back together, stronger than ever,” said Adam Kullberg, interim Executive Director of Pop Culture Classroom, in a provided statement.

“Fan Expo Denver: Denver will give our community a chance to come together and celebrate creativity and pop culture in ways we haven’t been able to for a while.

We’re overjoyed to be able to bring that connection back to Denver this October.”

Fan Expo Denver will run from Friday, Oct. 29 through Sunday, Oct. 31 at the Colorado Convention Center, 700 14th St. in Denver.

The event is open from 4 to 9 p.m. on t

LEARN ABOUT AN EXCITING OPPORTUNITY FOR EASTERN COLORADO Xcel Energy hosting public open houses to provide information and ask for input on Colorado’s Power Pathway Xcel Energy continues to make progress identifying potential locations for planned electric transmission lines and substations.

We’ve identified focus areas, smaller areas within each segment study area, where the transmission route and substation sites could be located. Please join us at one of our upcoming in-person public open houses to learn about our routing and siting progress and provide feedback.

Project staff will be available to provide information about the potential locations for the proposed transmission lines and substations and answer questions about Colorado’s Power Pathway. We want to hear from you about this important project and any issues we should consider in your area.

No formal presentation is planned, so please attend at any time during the open house. Meeting materials are available in our Library at ColoradosPowerPathway.com and an electronic comment form is available if you are unable to attend a public open house (click on ‘Contact Us’ on the website to access).

ABOUT THE PROJECT Colorado’s Power Pathway is a proposal to build 345-kilovolt transmission lines in eastern Colorado. We estimate the system will cross more than a dozen counties and include: • Approximately 560-650 miles of new high-voltage transmission infrastructure • Four new and four expanded substations • If approved, construction could begin in 2023 and the first transmission segments could be in service in 2025, with other segments completed in 2026 and 2027 FOR MORE INFORMATION Contact us at 855-858-9037 or ColoradosPowerPathway@xcelenergy.com if you have questions or need assistance.

different computers, the meeting moved forward using paper maps.

Schroeder presented various maps, focusing on two vastly different layouts. One layout closely mirrors the current district map, while another extends the current District 1 out to Simla. District 1 is now represented by Chris Richardson, District 2 by Rick Pettitt and District 3 by Grant Thayer.

“Our goal was to be fair with how it’s split up and make sure there is a little bit of `rural’ in every district,” said Ted Hannon, secretary of the Elbert County Republican Party. “We wanted to politically get to a place where everyone can have agreement.”

“My impression of the meeting was that it was very thoughtful. It was nice to have contributions on both sides and we really got along famously in the meeting,” said Robert Thomasson, leader within the Democratic Party. “We needed to do the best job we could in balancing the districts and in making sure each group has representation.”

The political party leaders preferred the map with the eastwardextended District 1, arguing that it created three distinct groupings within the county: municipal (including the towns of Elizabeth, Kiowa and Simla), high density (Spring Valley Ranch and northwestern Elbert County), and agricultural.

In the meeting, it seemed that Pettitt and Richardson liked the substantially changed map as well, though Thayer was quite opposed.

“My problem with this map is that it dilutes the representation of the agricultural community,” said Thayer. “The subdivision people will take over the rural area when they come, removing representation from the agricultural people.”

Richardson offered a counterargument that instead of diluting the representation of the agricultural community, the map he preferred would enhance others.

The commissioners and the representatives from the Department of Elections indicated that they hope for more community involvement in the decision-making. Schroeder explained that only one member of

the public showed up to their special Elbert County Commissioner Redistricting Presentation on Oct. 12 at the Elbert County Fairgrounds.

Many residents, however, noted on social media that they were unaware of the event.

Schroeder and the commissioners are hoping to gather more support from the public in future meetings, allowing those with concerns to have their voices heard in the redistricting process.

The Elbert County Department of Elections hoped to present the top two map picks to the commissioners at the regular Board of County Commissioners meeting on Oct. 27.

The goal is to have the final map approval at the Board of County Commissioners meeting on Nov. 17.

Top talent talks about the importance of culture

H

ere we are wrapping up the series, “The 5 C’s of Retaining Top Talent.”

Now it’s time to link connection, collaboration, change and consistency to WINNING culture. And culture, according to WORDS some top performers across several industries, was the difference maker in their decision to stay in their current role, or to leave and explore finding success elsewhere.

Michael Norton Mariann is considered one of the brightest in her organization. She is a thought leader and someone who loves coaching, mentoring and developing excellence in her team.

Every year she receives a glowing performance evaluation and an increase in her salary. When she emailed me after the first column of this series, she shared that she was regretfully leaving her job and team that she loved. Her reason was that after watching the culture of the organization deteriorate, and with empty promises to change, she ultimately resigned.

Her email was reflective of many I have received over the past few weeks. Organizations who are losing people are losing them largely because of the perceived negative, caustic, toxic, and confrontational environment they find themselves now working in.

Dave, a top performing salesperson is consistently in the top five amongst the salespeople in his company. He emailed me to say he was glad that culture was on the list. He reported that he had left a numbers driven, operations driven culture that never supported the sales team. As a matter of fact, he called them the sales prevention department. He left because he heard about the positive, high-energy, sales culture at his current company. He sought them out even though they weren’t looking for any new salespeople at the time. He says that “Luckily, and thankfully they saw me as a fit and offered me a job. The culture here rocks.”

We are living in very complex times, and it seems that no matter what we do as business owners, or executives leading a company, the diverse make-up of opinions, likes, dislikes, preferences, and

attitudes of our team members makes it almost impossible to please everyone. Right now, if you happen to be at a place where the culture of the organization is eroding and people are leaving, there is still hope. There is still time to start making changes or leading differently.

Although we are living and working with complexities, we can take what Albert Einstein said and focus on simplicity. Albert Einstein said, “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.” Sometimes we tend to complicate the uncomplicated or over-engineer a solution.

When it comes to changing culture or creating and maintaining a positive culture where people want to come to work, we can make huge advancements by focusing on the basics, some of the simplest things that our people expect from leadership, and that can go such a long way to building a thriving culture. We covered some of these over the past four weeks; connection; collaboration; change; and consistency.

Employee engagement is a very clear indicator of the health of our business. And a pretty obvious indicator of whether or not

we have a positive and thriving culture. When we look around are we seeing team members who are simply checking the box, or are they engaged and contributing at their very best? Are we being transparent with what is going on, how the company is performing, and taking an active interest in each team member? Are we working under a people-focused culture based on honesty, integrity, and opportunity? If not, people will do one of two things. Show up and check the box, or they will leave.

And with those two options, having them leave is almost always better.

How is your business doing when it comes to culture? Is it so bad that you are in duck and cover mode? Is it so good that you hope to attract more top talent to join you? I would love to hear your story at mnorton@tramazing. com and when we create a culture where people want to work and thrive, it really will be a better than good year.

Michael Norton is the grateful CEO of Tramazing.com, a personal and professional coach, and a consultant, trainer, encourager and motivator to businesses of all sizes.

What do you do when you think of conflict?

ver watch that episode of “The Office” where Michael decides to teach his staff about conflict resolution? As a human resources professional and conflict coach GUEST watching that, I was both gasping COLUMN and guffawing at the same time. Of all the people to attempt it, there’s the manager modeling just how NOT to attempt to resolve conflict.

At one point, he basically comLinda Newell pares conflict to a “shiatsu massage, where they dig into your body, very hard. And it is very painful. And apparently, some people throw up. But the next day, they feel great.”

Most of us hate that poke-in-theeye feeling when addressing conflict. Even though I teach conflict transformation for a living, I still

get nervous with my own conflicts, as we all do. As my mentor says, that’s why they call it being a “practitioner.” It continues to take practice for all of us. So, what is it that makes us go crazy when we get into conflict? Or for some, even when we get near it.

For some of us, it may actually be a physical reaction to protect us from harm. That’s a whole course of protection techniques just in itself. For others, it might be the fear of losing the argument or appearing to be incorrect, wrong, or “found out.”

But for the majority of us, we become hesitant to dig into our conflict because either we don’t have the tools to resolve it or we’re afraid of hurting (or losing) our relationships around it. But shouldn’t we be able to do both?

Conflict management is about solving problems AND building relationships. What good is problem resolution if we can’t maintain the relationship?

When I was in the state Senate, I was often at odds with one of my colleagues across the aisle. Many times, he and I were diametrically opposed philosophically. However, over time, there were many occasions when we would come together and collaborate on legislation successfully. Throughout the years, we became friends and assured each other that no matter our policy differences (and sometimes heated debates on the floor), we would always respect one another and sustain our friendship.

We remain friends to this day.

As we recognize October as Conflict Resolution Month in Colorado, I entreat you to perhaps imagine that the conflicts in your life could be approached as just solving a problem and building a relationship. Is there a way to do both?

Admittedly, some conflicts may need a stiff drink of coffee, a suite of calming techniques, or even a court-ordered mediator. And yes, some conflicts may be too danger-

Legislature eyes tax hike for short-term rentals Plan would help fund schools, fire departments, say sponsors

BY JESSE PAUL AND JASON BLEVINS THE COLORADO SUN

Property taxes on short-term rental properties in Colorado would more than triple under a bill drafted by state lawmakers that comes as communities from Durango to Denver grapple with surging numbers of vacation rentals.

The proposal would tax vacation homes like hotels and motels, which are subject to a higher assessment, on the days they are being rented and deliver the extra revenue to public schools, fire departments, libraries and other districts that rely on property taxes.

State Sen. Chris Hansen, a Denver Democrat who sits on the powerful Joint Budget Committee and is leading the push for the legislation, said the idea is to boost revenue for local communities.

“There’s a really strong need for us to stabilize our property tax system and increase our local share,” said Hansen, referring to the rising education funding burden on the state budget. “If this is something we don’t get ahead of, it’s going to spiral out of control for the state.”

The draft bill comes amid broader conversations around short-term rentals in western Colorado. Town councils and county commissioners see limits and increased fees on properties rented through sites like Airbnb and VRBO as a way to ease a critical lack of affordable housing that is triggering a labor shortage.

In mountain communities, many think short-term rentals have already spiraled out of control. Many of them are cracking down on shortterm rentals as new residents buy homes for record prices and more owners convert long-term rentals for local workers into vacation homes offered to travelers.

“It’s constantly being talked about.

Every local government is hearing the same thing: These are really impacting our communities, our neighborhoods and our quality of life,” said Jon Stavney, the executive director of the Northwest Colorado Council of Governments.

Voters in Avon, Crested Butte, Leadville and Ouray will consider ballot questions that increase taxes on short-term rentals. Telluride voters have two ballot questions that impose caps on vacation rentals.

Councils and commissioners in several other communities have stalled or capped the flow of permits for vacation homes. (Check back with The Sun next week to read a roundup of short-term rental ballot issues and ordinances in local elections on the Western Slope.)

The new draft state legislation, which was developed this month from discussions in the General Assembly’s Legislative Oversight Committee Concerning Tax Policy and Task Force, would work like this: If a home is rented as a short-term rental for more than 30 days a year, the owner must pay the lodging property tax rate for each rental day

instead of the much lower singlefamily property tax rate. In other words, if a property is rented out as a short-term rental for 45 days, the owner must pay a commercial property tax rate on those 45 days in a year and the single-family property tax rate on the remaining 320 days.

A temporary reduction in the 29% commercial property tax assessment rate approved by lawmakers this year through Senate Bill 293 dropped the lodging property tax assessment rate to 26.4% for tax years 2022 and 2023 from 29%. Proposition 120, on the November ballot, would make that reduction permanent if it’s approved by voters.

The single-family property tax assessment rate is 6.9% for the next two tax years under Senate Bill 293.

Lawmakers will then decide whether to continue the reduction or reinstate the 7.15% assessment rate.

The assessment rate works like this: If property’s fair-market value is $1 million, its assessed value for purposes of taxation would be $264,000 if it’s considered a commercial property. If it is considered a residential property, its assessed value would be $69,000.

The higher the assessed value, the more taxes the property owner pays.

The policy change is really targeted at second homeowners and investment property owners. The 30-day threshold is considered a protection for owners who only occasionally rent their homes.

“You don’t want to create a bunch of overhead for somebody who is renting it occasionally,” Hansen said.

Still, Hansen is open to changing the threshold for when homeowners would have to start paying lodging property taxes on rental days.

“I’m not stuck on 30,” he said. “It’s just sort of the opening gambit.”

Mark Chapin, Eagle County’s assessor and the co-chair of the Colorado Assessors Association’s legislative committee, is working with Hansen on how best to draw a line between investors who rent for returns versus owners who rent occasionally to offset costs.

Chapin worries that assessors in smaller communities will have a difficult time tracking down owners of vacation homes and then valuing their properties based on the number of days it rented to vacationers.

“It depends on the scope of the legislation and what the legislature is trying to capture,” Chapin said.

“If they are saying all short-term rentals need to be valued and placed on the tax roll … that is not daunting but it certainly would require more employees.”

But if lawmakers focus only on properties that are used exclusively for short-term rentals, Chapin said, “that changes that game.”

The focus for assessors in mountain communities is to help communities address long-term housing for workers as well as “treating everyone fairly and equitably,” Chapin said.

“Sen. Hansen’s concern is, from a real property valuation standpoint, that the short-term rental is the same as a hotel and motel, so their tax should be based on a higher assessment rate,” Chapin said.

Colorado Springs has one of Colo-

rado’s most robust short-term rental markets. There are many investment companies that are acquiring and renting homes. But for a major city, the number of homes available for rent is not having a huge impact on housing for workers, El Paso County Assessor Steve Schleiker said.

Schleiker sees big differences between owners of short-term rental properties in urban counties on the Front Range and vacation homeowners in resort-area communities.

He wonders if a statewide policy on short-term rentals would work for both urban and rural communities.

Schleiker, who also serves on the board of the Colorado Assessors Association and was named Colorado Assessor of the Year in 2019, sees some challenges in switching shortterm rentals over to commercial property tax assessment.

First, Schleiker pointed to the hundreds, if not thousands, of El Paso County’s military veterans and personnel who have mortgages through the Veterans Administration. They could have their note called if their homes are assessed as commercial properties, he said.

Other lenders might also have

issues with owners of residential homes being assessed at commercial rates, he said.

“That has already happened twice with two property owners … who converted a portion of their home to rent on Airbnb,” he said. (Those owners were refinancing, Schleiker said, and the appraisal report noted the rental operation, which alerted the Veterans Administration lender to a potential violation of their residential mortgage terms.)

Schleiker also worries that utilities and insurance providers may change their rates for homeowners whose properties are assessed as commercial.

“Our lawmakers need to be very, very careful looking at this,” he said. “I wonder if folks are looking down the road at the ramifications.

I see more cons than pros, but I understand the purpose.”

Schleiker has an idea he thinks could work better. Why not create a new assessment for lodging properties, both hotels and short-term rentals, that falls somewhere between today’s commercial and residential rates? Senate Bill 293 set the model, SEE RENTALS, P14

Let’s talk about death.

“It’s really a Western culture thing, this death denial,” says Emily Nelson. “Where we just don’t really think about it or talk about it and it’s just become rather taboo.”

Nelson, the founder and CEO of Be a Tree Cremation in Denver, believes there is more to death than traditional practices.

“Our current conventional method of burial and cremation really perpetuates the idea that somehow we’re separate from nature as humans. We’re not … We don’t need to be preserved in any way,” Nelson says.

Be a Tree Cremation, the second facility of its kind in Colorado, specializes in the process of water cremation — technically known as “alkaline hydrolysis.” The process, which was legalized in Colorado in 2011, is surprisingly simple.

“The decedent gets loaded directly into this vessel,” says Nelson, motioning to a large cylindrical metal tube behind her. Then, water is pumped into the vessel along with a small amount of potassium hydroxide. The mixture mimics the natural decomposition process and gently dissolves the body, she says.

When the process is finished, all that remains in the vessel are skeletal remains and things like gold teeth and artificial joints from surgeries such as knee replacements.

The skeletal remains are ground into ashes for the family. Other items are safely recycled.

The process also creates a nutrient-dense liquid branded as “Tree Tea.” Family members have the option to purchase small bottles of the liquid to use as nourishment for their plants at home.

Nelson says water cremation is one of the most natural and environmentally-friendly ways to return to the earth, which is what originally inspired her to research the process.

“At Be a Tree Cremation, we really

Schleiker said, by carving out new property tax subcategories for multi-family homes and agricultural and renewable energy properties.

“If I have an opportunity to sit down with the governor or testify on this bill, I will be very vocal with my concerns,” Schleiker said. “Maybe there’s some middle ground with an assessment between commercial and residential for short-term rental properties offering lodging like a hotel and motel,” Schleiker said.

The Legislative Oversight Committee Concerning Tax Policy and Task Force voted 5-1 last month to draft the legislation. The lone “no” vote came from Rep. Dan Woog, an Erie Republican.

“I just think that’s a local control issue,” Woog said. “I just don’t think the state legislature needs to come

have two goals,” she explains. “To help people live on through nature, and to reduce the carbon footprint of the funeral industry, which is not insignificant.”

The process of water cremation uses about 90% less energy than typical flame cremations, Nelson says, adding that flame cremations also emit the same amount of carbon dioxide as a 600-mile road trip.

“We have no emissions or smoke coming from our building,” says Nelson.

Prior to opening Be a Tree in Sun Valley, Nelson worked with a corporation that owns over 2,000 funeral homes across the county.

“At that point I really saw behind the curtain of conventional burial and cremation work, and just didn’t feel right about it. I just knew there had to be a different option for people,” Nelson says.

Cremations have only recently surpassed burials as the most popular end-of-life option. According to 2019 estimates from the National Funeral Directors Association (NFDA), by 2040 “the cremation rate in the U.S. is projected to be 78.7% while the burial rate is predicted to be just 15.7%, signifying that cremation is no fading trend.”

A traditional fire cremation is estimated to produce an average of 534.6 pounds of carbon dioxide per person. As journalist Eleanor Cummins noted in a report this month for Wired, that is a higher figure than the per capita emissions of Afghanistan.

Be a Tree Cremation currently has one water cremation system and works with about 10 clients per month. From start to finish, the process takes about 18 hours.

“Realistically we can really only work with one person a day,” says Nelson. “Once we hit one person a day in the month, we’ll really be at capacity here and start looking at other ways that we can serve more people.”

Nelson says Be a Tree’s packages start at $2,250 and they include water cremation, transportation and

a basic urn. That is significantly cheaper than the average burial process. A casket alone costs an average of $2,000, according to the Federal Trade Commission. In 2019, the cost of burials in Colorado averaged $6,907 while the average cremation came out to $4,517, according to data from the NFDA. While Be a Tree’s process is timeconsuming, having fewer clients means that Emily and her team can work closely and intentionally with each family. Appointments are often filled with music requested by the decedent’s family, while incense, sage, and candles are lit.

“Even though this is a really technology-driven process, it’s still a person, and it’s still someone’s loved one,” says Nelson.

Apart from what the family takes home, the majority of the liquid is sent to Half Moon Farm in Lakewood to be used on flowers and other non-edible plants. The partnership between Be a Tree Cremation and Half Moon Farm started about a year ago, when both facilities opened.

“It’s one of the healthiest ways in returning us back to the earth,” says Eric Rooney, owner and “chief plant companion” at Half Moon Farm.

“Everything that’s in our fertilizers is what’s in this liquid,” says Rooney. They regularly test the Tree Tea, which is a non-toxic solution of amino acids, peptides, sugars, and soap. The exact makeup “will vary from person to person,” says Nelson.

The flowers from Half Moon Farm travel all over Colorado — to weddings, funerals, dinner parties, and a variety of other celebrations.

“It’s an opportunity for people to look at the story of life,” says Rooney, “and this regenerative idea behind us going back to our most physical sense, the earth.”

in and create some blanket policy.”

Besides his big-government concerns, Woog also worried the policy change would result in higher prices for consumers.

That’s exactly the point, Hansen said.

“It’s essentially a passthrough,” he said. “If you have a lack of tax parity, you’re basically creating a tax subsidy for a lodging property and you get unintended consequences.”

Hansen also brushed off concerns about keeping tabs on how many days a property is rented out.

“We’re obviously counting on the taxpayer to correctly report and remit, just as we do every other part of the tax system.”

This is not the first time a Colorado lawmaker has tried to shift vacation rentals over to commercial taxation. In 2020, state Sen. Bob Gardner, a Colorado Springs Republican, introduced a similar piece of legislation. It was rejected, but not

before creating an uproar among resort-town real estate brokers and short-term rental owners in the state.

Gardner said he was just trying to start a conversation about the tax parity issue.

Hansen is fully cognizant that his legislation is likely to prompt as much feedback as an Airbnb listing that makes false promises.

“I think there’s a very loud group that owns second homes that would like not to pay appropriate property tax,” he said. “I get that. We as the legislature have a larger responsibility to have a sustainable funding mechanism for schools.”

Ozone worsens along Front Range; answers elusive ‘Other areas don’t violate standards like we do’

BY MICHAEL BOOTH THE COLORADO SUN

The worst ozone year in recent history on the northern Front Range boosted pollutant violations in a rolling three-year average closely watched by the EPA, state officials said Oct. 21, though they did not offer bold new programs to combat the hazardous substance.

Twelve monitoring sites on the Front Range now have a three-year average over the EPA’s most recent 70-parts-per-billion cap for ozone, and five sites violate even the EPA’s previous looser standard of 75 parts per billion, according to annual reports made Oct. 21 to the Air Quality Control Commission by state and regional pollution officials.

Widespread Western wildfires and the smoke they shed into Colorado contributed to the ozone worsening in the northern Front Range area already in non-attainment of EPA limits, the officials said.

But they also acknowledged that the hot dry summer of 2021, which will be repeated in the future as climate change affects the West, made for terrible ozone conditions — with or without the smoke.

“Other areas don’t violate the standards like we do,” said Mike Silverstein, director of the Regional Air Quality Council, which tracks pollution and recommends policy changes to help the Front Range meet EPA limits. “So that shows that local vehicle emissions are really what kicks us over the threshold of the standards, not what’s given to us from outside.”

The state Air Quality Control Division staff, which reports to the commission, confirmed that the northern Front Range is likely to be declared in “severe” violation of EPA ozone limits in early 2022, after lingering in the “serious” violation category.

Changing the classification triggers more demands on the RAQC and state officials to clamp down on vehicle emissions and volatile chemicals from oil and gas operations that contribute to ozone.

concern, including nitrogen oxide and volatile organic compounds that are precursors of ozone, the presentations showed. But ozone is in violation and getting worse, with many Front Range monitors registering levels higher than 80 parts per billion over the summer.

Some AQCC commissioners pressed staff and RAQC officials making the annual reports on what new measures will be taken soon to bring ozone down.

“We must own the reality that what we’re doing is simply not enough,” Commissioner Elise Jones said after the meeting. “We are failing on air quality. It’s time for us to pursue bolder solutions than we’ve considered before — like making transit free, and not allowing oil and gas fracking during the ozone season.”

Air quality officials are scheduled to make more rules cutting emissions from oil and gas production in December, and that has proven one of the most effective strategies so far, Silverstein said.

RTD has also begun talking about seeking federal funding for free transit on ozone alert days, which would cost millions in foregone ticket

revenue, he added.

Silverstein said RAQC and others will be looking at reducing vehicle miles traveled, a key measure in trying to cut ozone pollution, by working with large warehouse centers, shopping malls or other concentrated locations for vehicle trips.

Front Range air pollution monitors can separate out pollution sources and identify which category is most promising for reducing ozone — travel by cars and light trucks is the top pollution contributor for almost every monitor, the Oct. 21 presentations showed.

Changing automobile use for employers or employees, though, has proven one of the most fraught avenues in metro Denver’s pollution control efforts. Air Pollution Control Division staff over the summer proposed requiring large employers to cut the number of commuting or work miles driven by staff, but quickly withdrew the Employee Trip Reduction Program on opposition from business and industry groups.

Silverstein noted that rebates to people who replace gas-powered lawn mowing equipment with clean electric models has also helped make a dent in afternoon ozone.

Commissioner Jana Milford noted that California has just moved to end the sale of oil and gas-powered lawn equipment altogether, and wondered if Colorado should follow that lead.

Reaction from environment advocates after the meeting appeared to be, “all of the above, and more.”

V. Sean Mitchell, Colorado spokesperson for the Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments, said the state’s ongoing pollution problems became more critical with COVID19, and studies showing the virus does deeper damage in areas made vulnerable by high pollution.

“The air quality this summer was atrocious,” Mitchell said, in an emailed statement. “Now is the time for Colorado to not shift the blame to other states, but again take the lead, with bold actions to provide clean, healthy air.”

Denver Health nurse featured in artist’s new mural Artwork appears as health workers face threats and violence

VIDEO ONLINE Watch a Rocky Mountain PBS video about this story at tinyurl.com/RMPBSVideoNurse

BY KYLE COOKE AND BRIAN WILLIE ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

Few artists are able to capture a moment like Thomas Evans.

The artist, who paints under the name Detour, specializes in largescale public art. His murals of people like George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Elijah McClain and John Lewis became popular landmarks over the last year and a half, especially during the racial justice movement in the summer of 2020.

But while many people may think of those nationally known figures when they think of Detour’s art, most of his murals depict community members, people he knows personally. The new mural at the intersection of Colfax Avenue and Race Street — the original location of Detour’s George Floyd mural — is no exception.

What was once a gray wall now stands a stunning, vibrant mural of Trina Fernandes, an acute care nurse with Denver Health.

“There’s nothing to describe how amazing his art is,” Fernandes said of Detour.

Their friendship dates back nearly 10 years. Fernandes met Detour when she was an undergraduate student at the University of Colorado Denver. Detour was finishing up his master’s degree and working at the Student Life office.

When Fernandes remarked to him that she was impressed by the artwork at the office, Detour revealed that he had made it all.

“I just cannot say how amazing he is,” Fernandes added.

Their friendship continued, but Fernandes never expected that one day she would be featured in one of Detour’s murals.

“It is very surreal,” Fernandes explained. “Because I feel like there are so many people he could have showcased, but he chose me.”

In the mural, Fernandes is shown holding her stethoscope over her

shoulders, similar to how a baseball player might hold a bat in the ondeck circle. With a slight smirk, she looks confident, triumphant.

When Rocky Mountain PBS arrived at the mural to record video, a man admiring the work said it looked like Fernandes had “unfinished business.”

“I see someone moving forward, who has been through something,” the man said about the mural. “I see somebody going somewhere.”

The mural was completed at a time when health care workers — who were once celebrated with flyovers and nightly applause from balconies in the early months of the pandemic — are now facing threats and violence for simply doing their jobs.

Fernandes said she knows many people who have left the health-care industry over the last 18 months.

And she doesn’t blame them. In order to take care of others, you have to be able to take care of yourself, she explained.

But Fernandes — who works 12 hour night shifts and was recently honored as Denver Health’s “nurse of the year” — is going strong, and the mural reflects that.

The flowers that once haloed George Floyd’s head are still visible in the mural of Fernandes, if a little faded. Fernandes said she was a little hesitant to have her mural painted over George Floyd.

“I don’t want to take up that space because (Floyd) is such a huge, prominent figure in what has happened within the last year,” Fernandes remembers telling Detour.

But it was never his plan for the Floyd memorial to be permanent.

On a wall adjacent to the new painting, Detour left a message on a pair of posters.

“I just want to inform everyone that I will soon be changing up the wall the George Floyd mural is on,” he wrote in July. “When (artist) Hiero (Veiga) and I first put down

paint on this wall we didn’t know the journey it would take us on or how impactful street art would play in our current society.”

His message continued on another sign: “I just want to continue telling the stories of the community and will continue to do that through this wall space ... I just wanted to give a heads up because I know the community has grown close with this work.”

Detour, who has also painted murals of activists and educators over the past couple years, told Rocky Mountain PBS he prefers to paint murals of people he knows personally.

“The biggest thing for me was just being able to paint a friend; paint someone who never really had a mural but they are amazing community members and just good people,” Detour said. “It’s showing a lot of representation in the neighborhood, the city, the state — just the larger community.”

Detour told Rocky Mountain PBS that the next person he has in mind for the wall at Colfax and Race is Paul Hamilton, a Denver art collector with more than 800 pieces of African art.

As for Fernandes, she is getting

used to texts and phone calls from friends saying they “saw her on Colfax.” But both she and Detour hope that even if someone doesn’t know Fernandes personally, the mural will make them think of someone they do know.

“Maybe they don’t know who I am, but I mean, as a nurse, as a first generation student that (made it) where I am, it’s something that a lot of people can relate to,” Fernandes explained.

Detour said the mural shows “it doesn’t matter what you do, or who you look like or what income level or what occupation (you have). Basically, you’re able to be celebrated on that scale.”

In that way, Fernandes noted, her mural is similar to the one of George Floyd. “There are a lot of people that don’t know (Floyd) but could relate to him because what happened to him has happened to a lot of people in this country.”

Denver Film Festival returns with features, experiences Screenings set for various venues

BY CLARKE READER SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

The latter half of the 2010s saw increased involvement in national and local elections, with more women running — and winning — than ever before. While national figures drew a lot of eyes, filmmaker Rebekah Henderson turned her eye — and camera — to campaigns happening right here in Denver.

“The film is really a love letter to the activist community and my friends,” Henderson said. “People do not know how hard local races are … and I wanted to tell a local story that is universal.”

The resulting film, “Running With My Girls,” follows the 2018 races of Shontel Lewis and a cohort of candidates who ran as a group — Lisa Calderón, Candi CdeBaca, Shayla Richard and Veronica Barela.

“If you live in any city in America and are a Black or brown person who is paying to attention, you’ll see yourself in this film,” Henderson said. “It’s very

much a reflection of my experience. I never stopped rolling because I didn’t want to miss anything.”

The film is part of the 44th annual Denver Film Festival, which runs in person and online from Wednesday, Nov. 3 through Sunday, Nov. 14.

All films will be screened in various theater settings (the SIE FilmCenter, AMC 9 + CO 10, the Denver Botanic Gardens Sturm Auditorium and Ellie Caulkins Opera House) and about 50 will be available for streaming at home on Denver Film’s virtual platform.

The festival will feature about 233 films, including 140 feature-length films, shorts, music videos and episodic content, according to provided information.

Some major highlights (and award-season contenders) include “Spencer,” featuring Kristen Stewart as Princess Diana; Will Smith’s “King Richard”; and “Jockey,” which stars Clifton Collins Jr., who will be in attendance to receive the 2021 John Cassavetes Award.

Attendees can also put themselves in the world of film thanks a range of virtual reality and immersive experiences taking place at

the Festival Annex at the historic McNichols Civic Center Building.

For local filmmakers like Henderson, being part of the home film festival reflects the importance of community — not only as it applies to filmmaking, but as it applies to improving

the lives and future of those around you.

“The film is really community made, and shows that when we band together, we have this power,” she said. “I want people to see it. I want people to get inspired by it.”

tickets, visit tinyurl.com/ denverfilmfest2021.

Denver Film will require all festival patrons, guests, employees and volunteers entering venues or host sites to show proof of full vaccination against COVID-19 with an FDA- or WHO-approved vaccine.

“Leo and Billy with Dreamstyle windows installed our new windows today, ALL in one day! Amazing! They were the hardest workers; they were super clean, cleaning up each room area after each window; really polite, and VERY skilled at their work, with so many details to accomplish on each window, they didn’t miss one step and the end product is excellent! We don’t even want to put our drapes back up!” – John L, BBB, 12/1/20
