Englewood honors student artists selected for calendar

Winners selected in contest

Tigers, jellyfish and magical creatures, oh my! The 2023 Englewood Calendar has it all, thanks to the creativity and hard work of student artists.

“Each year, the City of Englewood does produce a calendar that showcases Englewood’s talented student artists,” said Mayor Othoniel Sierra during the Dec. 5 city council meeting.

To choose the artwork included in the calendar, the city holds an art

More than 200 students submitted artwork, said Vanessa Davis, the city’s marketing and social media strategist, in an email.

Out of those submissions, 13 artists, ranging from a kindergarten student to a high school senior, were selected as the top finalists whose

RSV viruses raise concern for children

Season starts early, strong

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Mom Brianne Price knew respiratory illnesses could be a concern because her baby was born prematurely. Then her other child, her 4-year-old boy, came home with a cough. Soon after, Price was calling a nurse help line. Her baby also had something, except it was worse. Her baby had trouble breathing. It landed her baby in the hospital.

“It’s a wonderful time to spend together and I think she enjoys it, too,” he said. “She’s kind of new to crossword puzzles, but she’s picking up very quickly.”

Since the fall of 2021, Harsh has been DeBlauw’s caregiver through Senior Helpers, a nationwide inhome senior care provider.

The baby recovered after spending days in the hospital. Now Price, from the Littleton area, is sounding the alarm for other parents, hoping they take the spread of illnesses seriously.

“Keeping your kids home when they’re sick is super helpful,” Price said.

FROM

out that her daughter was one of more than 1,400 RSV-related hospitalizations in the Denver metro area from Oct. 1 through late November, part of a season where RSV, respiratory syncytial virus, and other viruses, including the flu and COVID, are causing more infections, prompting concerns from public health officials.

At times in recent weeks, just two intensive-care hospital beds for children were available in the entire state of Colorado. Hospital departments took patients that they normally wouldn’t and health care professionals braced themselves for a marathon season that hopefully won’t put severe strains on hospitals, like those seen during the worst spikes of the coronavirus pandemic.

“Please note that some families with less urgent health concerns may experience longer wait times in our emergency departments,” an alert message on the Children’s Hospital Colorado website says.

A cough or runny nose may not seem like a cause for concern. But health officials want people to think twice about it and take extra precautions to protect their families, classmates, coworkers and neighbors.

“We know that a mild respiratory infection in one person can be potentially a deadly infection in someone else,” Dr. Rachel Herlihy, state epidemiologist, said.

Triple threat

Amid an earlier-than-usual — and more severe — RSV season, Children’s Hospital Colorado saw record numbers of patients with respiratory illnesses in its emergency departments. By itself, health officials might manage the upsurge. But flu and COVID are also circulating, fueling concerns about stretched resources.

One children’s health official wasn’t sure how the combination of a holiday school break and holiday gatherings might affect the trends. But one thing’s for sure: Health care workers expect the situation to continue into the new year, said Dr. Kevin Carney, associate chief medical officer for Children’s Hospital Colorado.

That’s even if RSV slows down — because the flu started ramping up in November, Carney said.

“We are pretty much mentally preparing to have no break between these respiratory infections,” Carney said, adding, “I don’t see a scenario in the next month or two where we don’t have very busy emergency departments and inpatient units.”

Then there’s COVID. Colorado listed 440 people as “currently hospitalized” with coronavirus the week of Nov. 29, with numbers trending upward. For instance, there were just 145 hospitalizations the week of Sept. 20.

The state also posted a seven-day average of eight deaths among COVID cases on Nov. 19, up from an average of three deaths about a month earlier.

But when it comes to kids, health officials are focused on RSV.

“For influenza, most of our hospitalizations have been among adults, and then we see really the inverse of that for RSV,” Herlihy said, emphasizing the risk to children, during a separate news conference.

Most children get an RSV infec-

tion by the time they are 2 years old, according to the state health department. Some infants and young children may be at higher risk for more-severe illness from RSV, such as bronchitis or pneumonia.

The illness is more pervasive this year because young children now have less built-up immunity, according to a University of Chicago Medicine article.

Earlier in the pandemic, due to masking and social distancing, young children were not exposed to common germs, according to the article. Now, some 1- and 2-year-olds are experiencing their first RSV infection, the article says.

Carney, the Children’s Hospital doctor, told news reporters his buildings are packed.

“Our hospital continues, at all of our sites, to be really functioning at 100% capacity in all of our units,” Carney said.

Possible peak, but more around corner

It is possible RSV cases have peaked, but the hospital is still contending with high numbers of patients — and it has seen a “significant uptick” in the number of patients showing up who have known influenza, Carney said.

It all adds up to mean that the end of respiratory illness season is a long way off, Carney said.

“It’s the million-dollar question what’s going to happen after Thanksgiving for us. Historically, we can sometimes count on when kids are out of school that infectious diseases will decrease,” Carney said.

But as people travel and get together with family and friends, viruses tend to spread, Carney added.

Colorado has seen 517 flu hospitalizations from Oct. 2 through Nov. 26, according to the state’s flu data webpage. And the flu season could be more severe than in recent years, officials say.

Hospitals scramble to handle child patients

As of Nov. 17, there were only two pediatric intensive-care unit, or ICU, beds available in Colorado, according to the state health department.

More recently, there were still just two available pediatric ICU beds out of 94 in the state as of Nov. 29, the department told CCM.

“The number of hospital beds is dynamic and refers to staffed beds, not physical beds,” the department said in a statement. The number depends on how many qualified health care professionals are available to work those beds.

Hospitals have taken action to expand capacity, with adult hospitals “starting to admit teenagers into their adult ICUs that they previously wouldn’t have seen,” Scott Bookman, director of the state Division of Disease Control and Public Health Response, said.

“They are also starting to bring much younger patients into their neonatal intensive-care units that traditionally wouldn’t serve this population,” Bookman said.

He added: “We’re also seeing adult hospitals simply being able to hold onto many of these children at their facilities rather than needing to transfer them to a pediatric center.”

Council supports bill to provide housing to first responders, teachers

Congress debates HELPER Act

BY NINA JOSS NJOSS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Littleton City Council recently voted to support a federal bill that aims to make housing more affordable for law enforcement officers, elementary and secondary school teachers, firefighters and other first responders.

The bill, called the “Homes for Every Local Protector, Educator, and Responder Act of 2021” or the “HELPER Act of 2021,” has been introduced in both chambers of Congress and has bipartisan support.

“The act would create a lowloan program to help the nation’s first responders and educators by helping them particularly with first time homeownership, but also homeownLDDAership more generally,” said City Manager Jim Becklenberg during the Dec. 6 meeting. “It would do things like eliminate down payment requirements, eliminate monthly mortgage insurance premiums and also give some low-interest loan advantages to those populations.”

According to Mayor Kyle Schlachter, a government affairs coordinator from a lobbying and consulting group called Commonwealth Strategic Partners asked the council to consider sending a letter to Congress in support of the bill.

Becklenberg said city staff is in favor of the council supporting the bill.

“Staff feels also that this would be in line certainly with the city’s goals for affordable housing, you know, helping more housing to be affordable by more people,” he said. “And certainly, these couple of constituencies are worthy groups to help into homeownership.”

The vote to approve the resolution passed 5-1, with councilmember Jerry Valdes voting against the motion.

Valdes said institutional racism

would be an unintended consequence of the HELPER Act.

“I know we’ve all heard about institutional racism,” he said. “My issue here is: Should taxpayers be required to subsidize a mortgage for select group of public sector employees that are predominantly non-minority?”

Sixty-six percent of police officers in the U.S. in 2020 were white (non-Hispanic), according to a database by the consulting company Deloitte and its research partners. Seventy-nine percent of public school teachers in the 2017-2018 school year were white (non-Hispanic) as well, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.

“We’re concerned about racism — that’s exactly what I see this as being, because of a particular employer,” he said. “A low percentage of minorities even have those positions.”

He added that he is curious why the legislation did not include trash collectors or grocery store workers.

Councilmember Patrick Driscoll said the federal government has many programs to help people afford housing and developing more programs can help people.

“I applaud the government for trying to go out there and put some more programs on the street,” he said. “Until we see the actual guidelines behind it and see how it helps those people, I think this is the first step in a long, long process.”

Schlachter said he was able to take advantage of a program called the HUD Good Neighbor Next Door program, which provided support for teachers, firefighters, EMTs and nurses.

“As someone who was able to take advantage of a similar program… it’s not a solution to everything, but it’s I think it’s a small step in the right direction to try to help people get into housing, especially with the current market that we have,” he said. “I definitely support this and hope we can help get everyone into housing, especially first responders and educators here.”

When tragedy hit close to home, Faith Haug immediately looked for a way to support the victims.

“I went online to try to donate to somewhere, and there was nowhere set up. So, I set up a GoFundMe. That was it,” she said.

Faith co-owns Good Judy Garage with her spouse CC Haug. Together they started this business just outside of Denver in late 2021 to create a safe space for those in the LGBTQ+ community and beyond when dealing with car repairs. Everything they do, down to the

“The reference comes from Judy Garland, who was a supporter of LGBTQ rights. So, somebody that was a supporter of the community, a friend of the community, was referred to as a ‘Good Judy,’” CC explained to Rocky Mountain PBS last year. “So, we kind of took that on because … we want to be there

They don’t take that responsibility lightly. On Saturday, Nov. 19 just before midnight, a shooter killed five people and hurt 17 others at Club Q, an LGBTQ+ club in Colorado Springs. For Faith, she felt like she had to do something, especially as a queer business owner.

“If I have the platform to get something like that out, that’s my

COURTESY OF ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS SEE CLUB

responsibility. And, you know, this is not about our shop whatsoever, but being able to spread that on our social media through the shop and all of that does have an effect,” said Faith.

So she started a GoFundMe, specifically for the victims and those directly impacted by the shooting.

“You know, one fund can’t meet every need. Our fund is to give direct, you know, cash/check payments to the victims that were directly involved,” Faith said, pointing out there are other funds for club employees, people facing trauma but weren’t physically present and federal grants coming in for things like memorials.

Over the matter of a few days, the fundraiser quickly gained traction, garnering support from people all over the world. Just two and a half weeks after the tragedy, people have donated more than $800,000 to the fund.

“I’m amazed by it, but I’m not surprised because the community shows up,” said Faith.

From celebrities, to bars, to tattoo shops to anonymous donors, the fundraiser continues to grow every day, which, among other factors, led Faith to partner with the National Compassion Fund. This nonprofit organization was started in partnership with victims and family members of past mass shootings, including the Aurora Theatre shooting.

Partnering with this fund, Faith

said, will help make sure all money intended to directly help the victims truly benefits them. Over the past two weeks, she said she has spoken to many previous victims of mass shootings and many of them spoke about the difficulties of receiving funds after a tragedy. For example, if someone is receiving federal benefits for something unrelated, receiving funds from GoFundMe will be seen as more income and disqualify them from that benefit.

“The responsibility I have with this fund is to make sure that it only helps,” Faith explained. “In trying to help, I can’t … I don’t want to cause harm. And so that’s the reason that it’s being done this way.”

One of the frequently asked questions Faith addressed in the

fundraiser posting is: why is the money not going to the Colorado Healing Fund? That fund was also created to help victims of mass shooting and was initially funded by the Colorado Attorney General’s Office. It often is pointed to as a place to donate after tragedies in Colorado. However, Faith said donors have specifically asked them not to give the money raised to that fund.

“Because they are unhappy with how funds from the SolTribe tragedy and others have been handled, high administrative fees, and the inability to have much say in where the funds go. We are not bad-mouthing the CHF – any donation is a good donation!” she wrote in the GoFundMe description.

On Dec. 6, the Colorado Healing Fund, or CHF, announced that it

secured underwriting support to cover the majority of expenses for administration of the fund for Club Q victims. In the announcement, CHF said this means the $1.9 million raised to date and all future funds raised for Club Q will be dedicated entirely to victim assistance.

For Faith, it’s all about keeping the victims in mind even during an emotional and trying time she’s experienced through this fundraiser.

“It’s heavy. It’s a lot of responsibility to a lot of people, and it has to be done the proper way. And so it’s been ... it’s been stressful, but I’m not dead and I’m not shot. So it’s really nothing in comparison to what, what those people are going through,” Faith explained.

The Good Judy Garage fundraiser is still open in hopes it continues to grow after receiving advice from survivors of other mass shootings to keep it open as long as possible to raise more money. People can donate through the GoFundMe or by going through the National Compassion Fund site. All of the money goes to the same place with the same intention — to help the victims.

Faith’s message to those who want to support: “Just keep sharing it and hopefully we can continue to grow it so that there’s more for the victims at the end of it.”

Restaurant is dream come alive

Little George’s focuses on mild Mexican food

BY RACHEL LORENZ SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Little George’s Mexican Restaurant is a dream come true for Jorge Moreno. It’s a dream that he says he couldn’t have achieved without his neighbor and coowner, Marlene Manty.

“Marlene and I, we’re a good team,” Moreno told Colorado Community Media.

The pair opened the new Centennial eatery on July 16. Moreno is the driving force behind the venture and runs the day-to-day operations. Manty, who also has a full-time job in nursing, works with their accountant and waits tables three evenings a week.

It’s a 90/10 partnership that began when Manty offered to help Moreno with the permit and licensing applications needed to get his business off the ground.

“He really had all his ducks in a row, but he was having a little bit of trouble with just the administrative side of it. … It just kind

of blossomed from there,” Manty said of her involvement.

Little George’s features Mexican fare like burritos, fajitas, enchiladas and margaritas. While Manty’s a fan of their sauces, especially the green chile, Moreno’s favorite is the steak burrito with rice and beans. The rice reminds him of meals in Peru, the country where he was born, educated and

worked in management before moving to Colorado 17 years ago.

For 13 years prior to opening Little George’s, Moreno was employed at another Mexican restaurant in the community. There, he said, he worked his way up from a busser to a server and then a manager — gaining the experience he needed to run his own place.

He also gained a follow-

ing. Many of the people he served previously are happy to discover Moreno has his own restaurant and now support him with repeat business, according to Manty.

“The customers love him.

… He’s the number one reason that our restaurant is different,” Manty said. “He has a presence, and he has a rapport with the customers.”

Moreno admits that being attentive to customers and sending them home happy is what he enjoys most about owning his own restaurant.

Manty, on the other hand, enjoys the freedom they have to make the business their own. Choosing the decor, making staffing decisions, creating the menu — it’s all up to them.

The flavor of the food at Little George’s, for example, is mild by design. While working for over a decade in the area, Moreno noticed only a small percentage of folks wanted spicy dishes. He and Manty decided to dial down the heat to accommodate local preferences. Of course, for customers that like it hot, all they have to do is ask, Moreno said.

The George Margarita, one of five on the menu, uses Moreno’s own recipe. He said it has good flavor but isn’t too strong. When it comes to drinks, he makes them with care because he wants people to enjoy them enough to order more than one.

Located in the University Towne Center at 7422 S. University Blvd., Little George’s Mexican Restaurant is open seven days a week for lunch, dinner and happy hour.

person’s needs, according to Littleton franchisee Peter Hjelmstad, who grew up in the city and attended Arapahoe High School.

In companion care services, for example, a caregiver spends time with a person and helps with household activities. In personal care services, caregivers offer personal hygiene and mobility assistance.

Hjelmstad said the company also offers specialty packages for Alzheimer’s and dementia, Parkinson’s and other chronic diseases.

“(The services are) for people that need help maintaining their independence at home,” Hjelmstad said. “What we really do is allow people to stay where they want to be longer.”

For DeBlauw, Harsh’s care and companionship has made a big difference in his life since his wife

passed away in September 2021.

“It’s very comforting and it’s very helpful. It provides a relief for me to have company, for one thing,” he said. “And then secondly, to have someone who can maintain some of the household chores that need to be taken care of here.”

When the Littleton location opened, a handful of clients including DeBaluw were transferred from the Fort Collins location.

“Nothing is changing for them, other than, you know, they’re now being locally managed rather than from afar,” Hjelmstad said. “So we’re able to better service them because we’re right here next to them.”

Hjelmstad said his branch is actively recruiting more caregivers and looking for more clients.

For Harsh, who worked in the health care industry for 40 years, caregiving is a great fit.

As a senior herself, she does light housekeeping, cooking, runs

errands, laundry, takes clients shopping and to appointments and spends quality time with them.

“The neat thing about that is, is being able to tell other people my age,” she said. “You’re still employable, there are things you can do within your own limitations.”

Harsh said being a senior helps her to be a better caregiver.

“I relate to the challenges that my clients have as far as aging goes. It’s like I share the same aches and pains,” she said. “I think the biggest thing that I’ve got going is patience because these are my people - I’m one of them.”

As the Senior Helpers of Littleton kicks off, Hjelmstad said he hopes it will give back to the community that helped raise him.

“We have deep roots here and really care about the people that that we’re taking care of,” he said. “It’s meaningful to us because they’re our friends and our neighbors and our families that we’re caring for.”

In addition to Littleton, Senior Helpers has locations in Greeley, Fort Collins, Parker and Northglenn to serve Colorado’s aging communities.

It’s clear this stream is grateful.

Our streams want to say thanks for giving them a gift this year.

Your actions made a difference in keeping our water clean. You chose to properly dispose of household chemicals, pet waste and trash. You used fertilizers appropriately and kept harmful material out of runoff’s path. You volunteered at local events to preserve our waterways. Keep up the good work.

Local stormwater agencies are teaming up to bring you this message. We take this so seriously we posted this ad rather than send you more garbage in the mail.

Nourish Meals on Wheels takes part in Colorado Gives Day

BY HALEY LENA HLENA@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Donations made to Nourish Meals on Wheels through Colorado Gives Day will be enhanced by the $1.4 million Colorado Gives Day Incentive Fund.

This Colorado Gives Day, on Dec. 6, Nourish Meals on Wheels aimed to raise $50,000. The organization raised $37,355 through 219 donors.

“Colorado Gives announced that we will know the amount we get from the incentive fund by Dec. 31,” said community engagement coordinator Olivia Servaes.

Nourish Meals on Wheels, a nonprofit organization, uses volunteers to package and deliver meals to seniors and homebound adults throughout Arapahoe, Jefferson, and Douglas countiesand Denver. Every morning, the head chef cooks creative meals and kitchen volunteers package the fresh, hot meals. The volunteers will cut up or puree food for clients who have the inability to use their utensils or have dental problems.

“We even take into account food preferences too,” said Servaes. “If you’re 90 years old and you don’t like brussel sprouts, we’re probably not going to be the ones that are going to change your mind on that, so we will put you on a list and make sure you never get brussel sprouts.”

From the kitchen to the road, just under 20 people work 30 routes to deliver hot food to the front door of those who need it.

Servaes said the nonprofit organization charges $5 for a hot meal, but if someone in need is not able to pay, they still get the food.

“We will never deny anybody food based on your ability to pay,” she said. “That’s why Colorado Gives Day is so important to us because those funds will feed people who can’t afford to feed themselves.”

Besides Colorado Gives Day, Nourish Meals is also supported through other community programs. On Dec. 8 Nourish Meals on Wheels will host Twelve Days of Giving. For 12 days, volunteers give a wrapped gift to each client when they get their hot meal. These gifts come from donations.

“The community helps us so much with this giant project because we average about 500 gifts each day,” said Servaes.

Gifts include items such as poinsettias and blankets. The blankets are made for Nourish Meals on Wheels by Arapahoe County Community Services and wrapped by students at Aspen Academy.

The community can donate monetarily using the donate today tab, bring in non-perishable food items, and so much more.

Nourish Meals on Wheels, located 92 E Arapahoe Road, operates Monday-Friday 8 a.m. - 2:30 p.m.

Volunteers prepare and package food in the kitchen on Colorado Gives Day.

Denver Giving Machines o er way to help

Devices are located along 16th Street Mall

BY JEREMY MOORE ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

A bank of four red vending machines near the 16th Street Mall invites pedestrians to buy a winter coat, art supplies, lumber or a tower of lettuce for someone who needs help.

Those gifts are just a few of the many practical items shown on cards inside the vending machines that have taken the place of more familiar choices like snacks or drinks.

The transaction is also familiar: each item has a number to be entered on a touchscreen. The donor swipes a credit card or uses mobile pay, and the item falls to the bottom. The difference is the cards pile up and are not immediately removed. The machines keep a running total of all purchases with the money going directly to each charity.

“The idea is to create a link between the giver and the recipient,” said Amy Johnson, who is on the organizing committee for Giving Machines sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. “And giving a tangible item, knowing exactly what you’re giving, is what creates that emotional link.”

The machines have returned to Denver’s Writer Square (at the corner of Larimer and 15th Street)

each November since 2019. They are part of the Church’s annual Light the World holiday initiative. The first machines appeared in Salt Lake City in 2017. This year, the machines can be found in 28 locations around

the world.

“The idea is to give as Jesus gave, one person at a time,” Johnson explained. “And so, the team was trying to come up with a simple, familiar way to give in a transactional

way. So, they thought, what’s easier than a vending machine?”

In Denver, this year’s machines benefit eight charities, three of

It finally happened

It took nearly three years, but I finally “officially” came down with COVID. Like many, I had plenty of discussions with people saying I might have had it before we knew about COVID. I still suspect I did, but this time was certain.

EDITOR’S COLUMN

I started feeling “off,” started having specific symptoms and, given how much I, and our staff, had written about the topic – I didn’t feel like I need a test to confirm it. I just knew.

First, I have not tested for COVID before. My household has been extremely fortunate in not getting sick or needing a test. This was the first time I did the athome tests that were sent to my house.

I have to admit, there were some flashbacks to home pregnancy tests waiting to see if the lines would appear. With the children — I wanted to line to appear. With this one — not so much.

Anyway, read through the directions, followed the steps and was expecting a 15-minute wait. Instead, it took less than two minutes for both lines to appear. I had COVID — although I already knew that.

I have a household of seven people, including my parents who are said to be the “vulnerable” population for this stuff. My dad has also been recovering from a nasty bout with bronchitis. I did not want to add this to the recovery efforts.

Then, we have the usually healthy three children and my husband.

Interestingly, when all was said and done – My 9-yearold, my teenage daughter and I ended up with COVID. The rest of the family was spared.

Now — for the lesson. We so badly want to pretend we’ve moved on from COVID. It became such a political thing that it brings up more anger and resentment that I had even expected myself to feel.

However, I got extremely sick. My daughter got very sick. My son just had a runny nose and felt tired.

Like others — I agree things went a little too far in some regards in how this nation handled dealing with a pandemic. I did not agree with a lot of things. Others I did agree with.

But when you’re lying in bed, struggling to breathe and feeling like you have been run over by a truck — you do understand what all these doctors are saying when they stress that it is important to be vigilant and not spread this thing.

In the end, I understand that it was a terrible cold and I recovered in a week — but those things people questions as fake are not fake. Yes — I had brain fog. No — I, while testing negative, have not fully recovered. I am still more tired than my daily tasks need me to be.

I can be in the middle of doing a simple task like washing glasses in a sink and suddenly feel tired and need to lie down.

We are in the season of COVID spreading and flu cases going up, and RSV in children is higher than doctors are comfortable with.

No matter what you think of any of these illnesses — I did exactly what was recommended. I stayed home. I kept my children at home. I stayed away from my parents and youngest son.

I may not have handled it perfectly, but for other students at my kids’ school, my coworkers and the world we live in — I did not want to spread it. Being vigilant is probably the best lesson we can follow from all the pandemic brought us.

Some

One of the more difficult things about the holiday season is something that impacts so many people is grieving the loss of someone who is no longer with us. And for those of us who have lost someone where a particular holiday meant so much to our family, it doesn’t matter if it was many years ago or just recently, the pain may ease, but it never truly goes away. And you know what? That’s a good thing as it stirs beautiful and loving memories that we want to hold onto forever.

This came up during a few conversations and email exchanges that I had over the Thanksgiving holiday and weekend. And during two of those conversations those that I was speaking with shared that their biggest regret was not having the chance to clear the air about a misunderstanding or grievance, or more importantly, their pain was coming from the fact that during their last visit together, whether in person or by phone, they missed the opportunity to tell them that they loved them. And for both individuals, it was weighing heavy upon their hearts.

Are some things better left unsaid? I believe so. We all have heard the expression, “If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.” It’s absolutely true, if what we are about to say is coming from a place of anger or if we are simply trying to stir up trouble. It’s different if there are things we need to say, especially if it’s something others need to hear, even though they may not want to hear it. The problem is this, if we miss an opportunity to share information that could help someone, but we lack the courage to confront them, they may not be able to address or fix what they do not know.

I love this quote by Audre Lorde, “When we speak, we are afraid our words will not be heard or welcomed. But when we are silent, we are still afraid. So, it is better to speak.” Some words are better left unspoken, until they are not.

Each one of us can probably think of a time when we forgot to say something or wish we had said something. Good or bad, right or wrong, we then get mad at ourselves for not having had the courage to speak up, or we promise ourselves we will speak up next time. Hoping that there will indeed be a next time.

holiday season, and as some of us are experiencing grief and the loss of a loved one who will not be celebrating with the family this year, may we lovingly remember them. And if we think we forgot to say “I love you” one last time, or that we were sorry, or anything else where we might have regrets, I encourage us not to focus on that one last time where we may have missed it, instead focus on all the times it was said and heard.

May we use this as a reminder for all those that are still with us and

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER THE COLORADO SUN

Hundreds of the nation’s most elite athletes in indoor rock climbing just had their version of the Super Bowl in Denver.

As the Olympic sport expands across the U.S. and Colorado, USA Climbing’s national championship last month was a sort of homecoming. The governing body in 2018 moved from its longtime home in Boulder to new headquarters in Salt Lake City.

“We definitely wanted to have a presence back in Colorado. That’s where USA Climbing got its feet off the ground,” said Ben Lowe with USA Climbing.

Sold-out crowds at The Spot climbing gym in Denver and G1 Climbing in Broomfield cheered as climbers — a mix of past and potential Olympians — tested themselves in three disciplines: 50-foot sport-climbing routes, a speed competition and short, powerful boulder problems.

Athletes made it as far as they could on routes designed to test their strength, agility and coordination.

In the sport climbing finals, only one athlete, Sean Bailey, completed a route without falling. He reached the top to raucous applause after battling a series of angled, plastic blocks screwed into the wall. The route required him to lunge toward small plastic rock holds with the tips of his fingers, hook his heels to pull his body up and swing across the wall while hanging on by only a few fingers.

The competition marked the end of the indoor-climbing season, but also provided an opportunity for new and returning climbers to begin scoring points to qualify for next year’s national team.

Once on the national team, athletes travel the world, competing in

the International Federation of Sport Climbing’s World Cups. They also get the chance to try out for the team going to the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

A surge in popularity

Indoor climbing started as a way for climbers to train during the offseason. Now, it’s blossomed into one of the fastest-growing Olympic sports. One that Coloradans are eating up.

In 2000, there were about 150 climbing gyms in the nation. Now, there are nearly 600, according to the Climbing Business Journal.

“It’s been a pretty massive surge in popularity, not just over the past two or three years though, it’s been seeing massive growth over the past 10 years,” said Lowe, the communications director for USA Climbing.

The indoor climbing industry is firmly anchored in Colorado with dozens of gyms across the state and a host of indoor equipment manufacturers thriving along the Front Range.

“Definitely explosive (growth) here in Colorado,” said Dan Howley, founder of The Spot gyms in Boulder and Denver. The Spot has hosted several past national climbing competitions and was home to bouldering nationals at their Denver location this year.

While USA Climbing is working to grow the sport around its new Salt Lake City base, Colorado athletes and fans continue to be a big part of the sport.

“There’s always been a lot of really great athletes, especially young athletes, that have come out of

Colorado. It’s got a long history in competitive rock climbing,” Lowe said. “Whenever somebody starts climbing the ranks and we hear they’re from Colorado, that’s definitely no surprise.”

That’s in part because of Boulder’s enduring ties to the sport.

“In the last 20 years, the Boulder area is sort of the Hollywood of rock climbing,” said Jason Haas, founder of G1 Climbing, “and if you’ve wanted to make a name for yourself in rock climbing you’ve had to live here.”

Two athletes from Colorado, Brooke Raboutou, 21, of Boulder, and Colin Duffy, 18, of Broomfield, already qualified for the national team trials in March. Both participated in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, but the next Olympic trials have not yet been scheduled.

Members and staff from both G1 and The Spot also competed in nationals, with at least one making finals.

While it may be a few years before USA Climbing comes

back to Colorado for nationals, both gyms say they hope to continue hosting other regional and local competitions. The Spot hosts four bouldering competitions every year and G1 hosts another. There are also USA Climbing youth, high school and collegiate competitions across the state.

Indoor versus outdoor climbing

The burgeoning sport is still at a point where fans can easily interact with the top athletes. During finals the weekend of Nov. 12, climbers battled the problems and routes set for them while spectators casually rubbed elbows with Olympians and other legends of the sport.

Nathaniel Coleman, a silver medalist at the Tokyo Olympics, was among the crowd along with Raboutou and Duffy. Kyra Condie, another Olympian, at nationals won the bronze medal in lead climbing and was fifth in bouldering.

“It’s like going to the World Series but the local community doesn’t

have a conversation with him. But in climbing we’re still at that level where you can.”

While the sport began with a strong connection with outdoor climbing, most agree the two have started to diverge.

“A lot of the routes that are set for these pros are now incorporating gymnastic, parkour-type movements,” Howley said, “physical movement that you’re not going to find you’re able to do safely outside.”

Indoor climbing also offers a new, unique option for people interested in overall fitness, Lowe said.

“There’s a lot of people out there who have a hard time going into a typical gym to run on the treadmill or lift weights for a few hours,” Lowe said. “They want something

they can actually actively engage with and challenge themselves not only physically but also mentally.”

Howley calls himself a “hardcore evangelist” for the sport.

“Indoor climbing has made this sport accessible and visible and popular to a larger community that maybe otherwise wouldn’t have been exposed to it, and to me that’s nothing but good,” he said. “Climbing makes people better as humans, it does so much for you. … It’s really good for the individual, it’s good for your soul and it’s food for building communities that care about each other and support each other.”

Now, USA Climbing and gym owners are working to make the sport more accessible to everyone.

Haas said it’s a pivotal time to make sure the sport grows and doesn’t turn into a fad that comes

and goes. He said that growth lies in accessibility to the non-rock climber.

He hopes for a day when people understand climbing like they do basketball or football.

“I should be able to turn on the television and go: who’s winning?” he said. “We have this great opportunity to show the whole world this sport and they can share it whether they physically do it as well or just spectate.”

‘Master Class’ launches new year

Terrence McNally play will run Jan. 12-15 at Town Hall Arts Center

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Prolific American playwright, librettist and screenwriter Terrence McNally (1938-2020) created plays, musical theatre, operas, films and television shows during a really astonishing and lengthy career. Awards included Tonys, including a special Tony for Lifetime Achievement in the Theatre; Drama Desk Awards, Primetime Emmy, 1994 Pulitzer for Drama and many more recognitions for a lifetime of creative work.

Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center audiences will enjoy a brief run in

“Master Class” will play Jan. 12 to 15, 2023 at Littleton Town Hall Arts Center, 2450 W. Main Street in downtown Littleton. townhallartscenter.org. 303794-2787, ext. 5

January of McNally’s Tony Awardwinning “Master Class” which is described as “a play — with music.” Scheduled Jan. 12-15, it tells a story about world-famous diva Maria Callas (1923-1977) in her later years, as she tries to share perspectives on performance — and life — with upand-coming operatic artists.

Well-known Denver area actor Megan Van De Hey will perform the lead part.

Callas actually did teach master classes at Juilliard in late 1971 and early 1972 and people have said she

did not behave as she is depicted by McNally in the play. (He is said to have been a fan of this world-famous singer and the play has been criticized as unfair to Callas.)

“Master Class” ran on Broadway from November 1995 to June 1997, while many other productions ran abroad. It will seem relevant to today’s audiences as it explores the burdens of genius-level talent on a highly gifted individual. Zoe Caldwell won a Tony for her performance. Bio information about McNally says his parents enjoyed Broadway musicals and took him to see Ethel Merman in “Annie Get Your Gun” when he was 8 years old and later to see Getrude Lawrence in “The King and I.” He was hooked from the start and was encouraged to write by a high school teacher.

Residents demand changes at Centennial Airport

BY TAYLER SHAW TSHAW@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Paul Cucci has lived in the Sundance Hills neighborhood of Greenwood Village for 32 years, and for most of that time, living near the Centennial Airport was OK.

However, things changed over a year ago, Cucci said, describing the volume of planes and flight patterns as incessant.

“I can rarely step outside and not hear a plane,” Cucci said.

Now, he and other residents are actively working to demand changes be made to address safety concerns and reduce air traffic and noise.

On Dec. 7, Cucci and a large group of residents gathered at the airport to express concerns to the Centennial Airport Community Noise Roundtable. An additional 30 residents attended the meeting virtually.

The Centennial Airport, located at 7565 S. Peoria St., is a general aviation airport. According to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), it is one of the 25 busiest airports in the U.S. and averages 1,000 takeoffs and landings per day.

The noise roundtable, created in 2009, aims to work with the airport to reduce and mitigate the impact of aircraft noise on surrounding communities, according to Centennial Airport’s website.

Members of the roundtable include local elected officials in Arapahoe and Douglas counties, airport staff, the FAA, CDOT and airport users.

During the public comment portion of the meeting, where residents could speak one-by-one for three uninterrupted minutes to the roundtable representatives, about 20 people spoke, many of whom live in Greenwood Village.

Residents shared stories of airplane noise interrupting their daily lives and creating mental health concerns. A few invited officials to come to their property and see what it’s like to live there.

Others described training planes repeatedly circling over their homes. Several people asked the airport to no longer permit touch-andgo landings, which is when a plane

about lead in the fuel of planes flying overhead, and the dangers it poses to their health.

Some asked for the airport to reduce the number of flights that occur, saying they don’t want the air traffic problem to be redirected to another community.

Given these concerns, a group of residents formed “Quiet Skies Over Arapahoe County.” The group has a website, bit.ly/quietskies, to share information with community members about resident concerns and action, updates on progress, and opportunities to get involved.

Responding to the concerns, Mike Fronapfel, executive director and CEO at Centennial Airport, said, “We’re going to work as quickly as possible to implement some of the unleaded fuel options out here when we can, and then hopefully we can partner with the FAA to help them reduce the size of that patten traffic so that it doesn’t impact the neighborhood as much.”

Why are more planes flying over neighborhoods?

After two planes collided in midair over the Cherry Creek State Park area in May 2021, the FAA Control Tower changed how it manages the pattern of traffic, now sequencing the aircraft as they come in on parallel runways, said Fronapfel.

The goal of this change is to enhance safety, he said.

“However, it’s — the result of it has been more aircraft flying out

through an environmental process.

“Because this was a reaction to that mid-air, I think they just implemented it without doing that process,” he said. “So, our recommendation was that they, first of all, revisit that change and maybe revert back to the old way they managed it.”

On Oct. 19, Fronapfel sent a letter to Jeff Lawton, an air traffic manager for the Centennial control tower, with recommendations of actions for the FAA to take to help address some of the issues the community raised.

For example, one of the requests included asking the FAA to see if it is possible to keep the training pattern aircraft south of Arapahoe Road, east of Interstate 25 and north of Lincoln Avenue whenever possible.

“We understand the intent of staggering the aircraft is to reduce the likelihood of another mid-air collision occurring. However, since Centennial Airport opened, out of 16.2 million operations there has been one mid-air collision,” Fronapfel said in the letter.

He wrote Greenwood Village residents are “very concerned about the significant increase in traffic and noise over their homes as a result of this change” and the community “is threatening to pursue legal action against the FAA.”

During the Dec. 7 meeting, Fronapfel asked if he can expect to see a response to the letter, to which one of the FAA representatives explained it is being processed.

O cials highlight need for FAA involvement

There were three representatives from the FAA who virtually attended the Dec. 7 meeting, which residents and members of the noise

roundtable expressed gratitude for.

we’ve had recently that the FAA has been able to attend, and so we really need them at the table. Because ultimately, they control the airspace, they control the pattern traffic, they control what the aircraft do within that airspace,” Fronapfel said. “We need them to be a stakeholder in the process.”

Centennial councilmember Candace Moon said it had been a while since the FAA had last attended a noise roundtable meeting.

“I miss seeing them in our meetings,” Moon said. “I think they’ve been very slow to address this issue.”

One of the requests in Fronapfel’s letter is that there be FAA representation at the monthly noise roundtable meetings to help answer questions.

In response to the concerns expressed on Dec. 7, Michael Valencia, general manager of the FAA Denver District, said he wrote five pages of “detailed notes” and thanked those who spoke.

“I will say that we heard you,” he said. “We look forward to partnering and to working together.”

Justin Biassou, an FAA community engagement officer for the Northwest Mountain and Alaskan Regions, said, “We not only heard what you had to say, we took copious amounts of notes.

“And we have subject matter experts that are going to take down much of what you’ve shared with us tonight and look into some of the concerns,” he said. “More to come from us.”

Greenwood Village councilmember Donna Johnston said she is thankful the FAA attended the meeting, but she would prefer them to be in person.

“Most importantly, it does seem that they have a large responsibility

FAA to review issues with noise, lead, fuel

to make — affect change. And we’re not gonna wait a year, or two years, or three years. We have an immediate problem,” Johnston said.

“We’re not asking for much,” she said. “Please consider doing more quickly.”

When asked if the FAA can get things done more quickly, Valencia said there are many stakeholders involved and any immediate actions would have repercussions, so the FAA has to be methodical in its decision making.

“We are not going to sit on our hands and not do anything,” he said. “We’re going to build some trust, and you’re going to get to know me.”

Centennial Airport to start new study

During the meeting, some residents expressed confusion about who they should be talking to in order to get changes made. They said there have been times when they talked to the FAA and were told they should be speaking with the airport instead, and vice versa.

When asked what his response was to this, Fronapfel said, “Yeah, it’s a frustrating scenario because the FAA controls the traffic and they control aircraft in the airspace. However, they have the local airports be the ones to address the noise issues.”

For example, Fronapfel said the airport has voluntary noise abatement guidelines, and if those were followed all the time, it would be helpful.

“But they can’t be followed all the time if the FAA is controlling traffic in such a way that it doesn’t follow those guidelines,” he said. “They don’t allow local airports to dictate what they do without going through a Part 150 process which they approve and sign off on.”

Part 150 refers to a voluntary program called Airport Noise Compatibility Planning, according to the FAA.

The process involves someone looking at the existing traffic and the forecast for future traffic, and then they do a computer model to create a new set of noise contours, Fronapfel said.

Noise contours are a series of lines on a map that show existing or potential areas of significant aircraft noise exposure, according to Boca Raton Airport.

Through doing this computer model, people can see whether the noise contours are expanding or contracting. From there, committees create recommendations for noise control and abatement that will eventually go to the FAA for review and approval, Fronapfel said.

Fronapfel said the airport has a new Part 150 study it hopes to do

this upcoming year.

“We’re overdue to have a new Part 150 study,” he said, explaining the last study was in 2008.

The nature of the air traffic and the noise was different back then, he said, as it was driven by jet aircraft. Now, it is driven by the propeller aircraft and the training aircraft.

According to the November noise report, the majority of noise complaints were filed for propellers.

Another aspect of the Part 150 study is looking at the land use around the airport and recommending certain types of uses and developments for vacant parcels, Fronapfel said.

After the study is done, he hopes to go to the different county and city jurisdictions to have them implement the land use recommendations into their codes, as well as adopt the same noise contours, as those are used to help determine where to build houses.

“We want everybody, kind of, on the same page,” he said.

E orts to eliminate lead

According to the FAA’s website, aviation gasoline is the fuel most commonly used in piston-engine aircraft and is the only transportation fuel in the U.S. to contain lead.

Fronapfel shared a statement with Colorado Community Media that says, “The Arapahoe County Public Airport Authority is aware of the community’s concern regarding the use of leaded aviation fuel and is already working with our Fixed Based Operators (FBOs) and flight schools to discuss transitioning to one of the FAA-approved alternative unleaded fuels at Centennial Airport.

“Our hope is to be among the leaders in addressing this issue in a safe and timely manner and working with the FAA and EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) in transitioning to unleaded aviation fuel nationwide so that whether an aircraft originates from Centennial Airport or not, everyone can be assured that only unleaded fuels are being utilized.”

In February, the FAA announced an initiative to eliminate the use of leaded aviation fuel by the end of 2030 “without adversely affecting the existing piston-engine fleet,” the administration said in a news release.

During the Dec. 7 meeting, one of the people who spoke during public comment was Brad Schuster, the northwest mountain regional manager at Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association.

“We represent 9,000 pilots in the Colorado region and over 250,000 nationwide,” Schuster said. “I want to say that our CEO and President Mark Baker strongly empathizes with the concerns of those in the audience that have expressed the concerns of lead.”

He said the Centennial Airport is “committed to expeditiously moving to only recently available unleaded fuels.”

“And between the next 12 to 36 months, that process is happening. It’s a matter of not only formulation, but production and distribution,” he said. “It’s gonna happen soon, but notwithstanding the fact that it doesn’t make it any better for the people in attendance today, so we understand that.”

In an interview after the meeting, Fronapfel pointed out that on Oct. 7, the EPA proposed an endangerment finding for lead emissions from aircraft engines that operate on leaded fuel.

“When it comes to our children the science is clear, exposure to lead can cause irreversible and life-long health effects,” said EPA Administrator Michael Regan in a news release. “Aircraft that use leaded fuel are the dominant source of lead emissions to air in the country. Today’s proposal is an important step forward as we work to reduce lead exposure and protect children’s health.”

According to the news release, the EPA’s consideration of endangerment is “a first step toward application of EPA’s authority to address lead pollution.”

“That was just two months ago,” Fronapfel said. “And since then, we’ve been trying to address this issue with the local FAA, trying to get them to revisit how they manage the … pattern traffic, to keep it soft over Arapahoe Road whenever possible.”

Fronapfel said the Centennial Airport reached out to all of its

fixed-base operators, which are organizations that provide fueling at an airport, and flight schools about if they would be willing to transition to an unleaded fuel source, and they all said they’re open to it.

“I think we have a lot of stakeholders that are moving in the right direction,” Fronapfel said.

Next steps

Brad Pierce, the chair of the noise roundtable, highlighted the importance of setting up another time for the officials to respond to the comments and questions residents raised during the meeting.

“We need to figure out a way after the meeting or some other time to respond, and that includes the FAA folks on the line,” he said.

The following day, Dec. 8, the Arapahoe County Public Airport Authority Board of Commissioners held a meeting at Centennial Airport, also drawing many attendees.

During the meeting, Nancy Sharpe, an Arapahoe County commissioner and the chair of the board whose term expires in February 2023, said she would like for there to be a meeting held with the noise roundtable, the board members, airport leadership and the FAA to address the resident questions.

“I am definitely committed to asking someone who will be on this board, and the others I’ve mentioned, for us to sit down, you know, in the next week,” Sharpe said.

“Let’s find a time and go through all of the things and the concerns that were expressed, and be more specific about who is going to do what, and who can do what.”

Last chance this year to make a di erence

FINANCIAL STRATEGIES

Iwould bet that everyone likes to help others, and no one likes to pay taxes. Well now is your chance to do both. There are only a few more days left to leave an impact of those in need and reduce your income tax liability for 2022. Picking out your favorite charity is the easy part. Now you get to determine how best to benefit from choosing the right amount, asset and

In a perfect world, we would donate regardless of a tax deduction, but it may also be helpful to be aware of what savings you can create as a result of your philanthropy.

First, identify what type of donation is best for you. The charity will benefit regardless of whether you donate cash, stocks, mutual funds, or a car. The charity can turn anything into cash tax free. Therefore, if you have an appreciated asset, such as shares of a stock or mutual fund, it is best to donate the shares rather than sell first. This way you can avoid paying capital gains tax on the investment. The charity does not have to pay capital gains tax.

Next, determine whether you are eligible to take a tax deduction for your donation. If you can itemize, perhaps due to high medical expenses, mortgage interest and property tax, then your charitable deduction can be added to your itemized deductions. Unfortunately, the $300 per person deduction without itemizing ended in 2021 and is no longer available.

If you don’t exceed the standard

deduction, then work with your advisor to consider bunching deductions. This is where you double up on charitable gifts in one year and then take a year off donating and use the standard deduction in those alternate years.

The standard deduction for 2022 is $12,950 for single filers ($13,850 in 2023) and $25,900 for joint filers ($27,700 in 2023). If you can’t exceed these amounts on your Schedule A, you will need to beef up your charitable contributions in certain years in order to itemize.

You may also consider contributing to a donor-advised fund (DAF), where you can contribute appreciated shares of a business or investment without paying tax on the gain. Once this asset resides in the DAF, you have the rest of your life to distribute to your favorite charities as you wish. Therefore, if you have a large asset you would like to donate and take the deduction all in one year, this strategy could be a good fit for you.

Retirees over age 70 1/2 are eligible to take up to $100,000 out of their pre-tax retirement plan or IRA and gift directly to a charity through a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) and still not have to itemize.

There may be other year-end strategies you can benefit from, such as tax-loss harvesting, maximizing your retirement contributions, or converting some of your pre-tax IRA or 401(k) to a Roth.

Consider meeting with your advisor early in 2023 to start planning for next year as well.

Colorado Dems eye gun-buy waiting periods

Ban on

BY JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

A host of changes to Colorado’s gun laws, from a ban on so-called assault weapons to tweaks to the existing red flag law, are already being considered by Democrats at the state Capitol in response to the shooting last month at an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs.

“Pretty much everything is on the table,” said Senate President Steve Fenberg, a Boulder Democrat. “The question now is: What seems like a priority?”

Democrats will return to the Colorado Capitol in early January with expanded majorities in both the House and Senate and facing pressure to act after the state’s latest mass shooting. Five people were killed and more than a dozen others wounded in a Nov. 19 attack on Club Q allegedly carried out by a 22-year-old shooter armed with a semi-automatic, AR-15-style rifle.

Gun policy could be the first big test of Democrats’ expanded majorities at the Capitol next year. Memories of the 2013 recalls of Democratic lawmakers over tougher gun regulations adopted in the wake of the Aurora theater shooting certainly remain, but Colorado

is a different state politically than it was a decade ago, and the Democratic majorities in the House and Senate are almost guaranteed until January 2027.

“Clearly, mental stability is a significant contributing factor,” Eileen McCarron, president of Colorado Ceasefire Legislative Action, a group that pushes for tighter firearm regulations, said in a written statement, “but even as hard as it is to address legislatively, we must face the elephant in the room: assault weapons.”

Adam Shore, the group’s executive director, said Colorado needs “to get to the root of what is driving these individuals to kill others, while simultaneously reducing the mayhem by ensuring that these weapons of war are confined to where they truly belong — the battlefield.”

Auon’tai “Tay” Anderson, a Denver Public Schools board member, posted on Twitter that Democrats should immediately use their majority at the Capitol to pass a socalled assault weapons ban.

“If folks refuse to act, vote them out,” Anderson tweeted.

Fenberg, who said gun control conversations were underway even before the Club Q shootings, said a ban on so-called assault weapons is certainly a possibility. The challenge is figuring out how to write the complicated policy, including how to define what an assault weapon is, what should happen to such weapons that are already in

the possession of Colorado residents and how to address people traveling to neighboring states to purchase weapons that would be prohibited in Colorado.

“I’ve always said that I support an assault weapons ban,” he said. “I don’t think in this day and age it makes sense that people can purchase weapons of war. It’s something (where) we have to make sure the policy is right. I think there’s still ongoing conversations about what the policy would be.”

It’s more likely that Democrats pursue other changes to Colorado’s gun laws first, such as raising the minimum age to purchase a rifle or shotgun to 21 from 18. The minimum age to purchase handguns in Colorado is already 21.

Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, California, Rhode Island and New York are among the states where it is illegal to purchase any firearm if you are younger than 21.

Rep. Tom Sullivan, a Centennial Democrat who won election to a state Senate seat in November, is working on changing the minimum age to purchase a gun. He initially wanted to raise the age only for so-called assault weapons, but thinks a broader change would be easier.

“That kind of will save us having to come up with a definition of what assault weapons are,” said Sullivan, whose son, Alex, was murdered in the 2012 Aurora theater shooting. “And that seems to be the consensus that we’re hearing from the rest of the caucus.”

Sullivan feels the legislature should have raised the minimum age to purchase rifles and shotguns last year.

“We had the votes, we had it put together but our leadership and the governor wouldn’t allow that to happen last year,” Sullivan said.

There are already discussions happening as well about enacting a waiting period between when someone purchases a weapon and can access it, mirroring policies in states including California and Hawaii, which have 10- and 14-day waiting periods, respectively. Illinois has a 72-hour waiting period between when someone can purchase a firearm and then access it.

There have been reports that the Club Q shooter may have used “ghost guns,” or homemade firearms that don’t have serial numbers, in the attack. Sullivan said he wants to pursue legislation to regulate those, too.

Colorado already requires universal background checks on all gun purchases and has laws limiting gun magazines to 15 rounds and requiring the safe storage of firearms. People whose guns are lost or stolen must make a report with law enforcement, as well, and there is a statute temporarily barring people convicted of certain violent misdemeanors from purchasing firearms.

Colorado counties and municipalities are also now allowed to enact gun regulations that are more stringent than the state’s policies after the legislature in 2021 repealed a preemption law.

When it comes to the red flag law,

a 2019 policy that lets judges order the temporary seizure of firearms from people deemed a significant risk to themselves or others, the changes being discussed have to do with expanding who can request a seizure. Right now, law enforcement and family members are effectively the only groups allowed to petition a judge to order a seizure.

Gov. Jared Polis has expressed support for adding district attorneys to the list, while others have suggested the attorney general’s office and teachers should be allowed to request seizures as well.

“We’re certainly going to take a hard look at why the red flag law wasn’t used in this case, in the case of the King Soopers shooter,” Polis told Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Polis, a Democrat, has been more supportive since the Club Q shooting of changing the red flag law and making sure that Coloradans know about it, as well as bolstering mental health offerings, than expanding the list of gun laws the state already has.

“In Colorado, we have a magazine limit — no more than 15 bullets in a magazine — so, effectively, it reduces the ability of high-powered weapons to do harm,” Polis told NBC News when discussing the prospect of a ban on so-called assault weapons.

Polis said he’d support a national effort to require additional licensure or background checks for people trying to purchase “some of the most high-powered weapons.” President Joe Biden has called for a ban on so-called assault weapons in the wake of the Club Q shooting.

Authorities haven’t provided details about the weapons used in the Club Q shooting.

Sullivan feels it would be better for a ban on so-called assault weapons to be pursued on the federal level, since Congress has more resources. He also pointed out that assault-style weapons aren’t used in the vast majority of firearm deaths in the U.S.

“You’re talking to somebody whose son was murdered by a guy with an assault-style firearm,” he said. “I know what it can do. But what happened to us is the one-off of the day-to-day gun violence that impacts our community.”

Incoming House Speaker Julie McCluskie, a Dillon Democrat who is still getting her leadership bearings, said her caucus has “talked about having a conversation.”

“I anticipate that just as after the Boulder shooting we will take the time to engage,” she said, referencing the 2021 attack on the Table Mesa King Soopers that left 10 people dead.

The legislature reconvenes on Jan. 9.

ThunderRidge loses cli hanger

Fossil Ridge prevails by three points after double overtime

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

ThunderRidge boys basketball coach Joe Ortiz imagines the Grizzlies learned a lot from their loss to top-ranked Fossil Ridge on Dec. 9.

The ThunderRidge Grizzlies, the defending Class 5A state champions with no seniors on this season’s team, had a chance to knock off the Sabercats but wound up losing 84-81 in double overtime.

“It was a classic game,” said Ortiz. “I’m proud of our guys. We were not supposed to even be in the game with them. We don’t have any seniors, we have a team. We’re trying to find our way. We’re improving in leaps and bounds. It was a huge game for learning.”

ThunderRidge, down by as many as nine points early in the game, twice pulled to within a point late in the first half and finally grabbed a 67-61 lead with 51.5 seconds left in regulation time, but Fossil Ridge hit two 3-point baskets and ThunderRidge missed a free throw, which forced the game into the first fourminute overtime.

Two 3-point baskets by 6-foot-5 junior Charlie Spann helped the Griz-

zlies come back to tie the game at 75-all and force a second overtime.

Spann hit two more shots as

ThunderRidge tied the second overtime at 79-79 with 1:29 to play but a 5-0 run by the Fort Collins team won

the game.

“It was a good win for them but we fought hard,” said Spann. “I was a little tired and my legs were gone.”

Spann finished with 31 points, and 28 came in the second half.

Andrew Crawford, a 6-6 junior, had 29 points for the Grizzlies and 14 came in the first half. He made six 3-point baskets.

ThunderRidge, 6-1, came back 14 hours after the loss to Fossil Ridge to defeat Rocky Mountain 79-64 in the third-place game. Spann and Crawford each had 22 points in the win.

Fossil Ridge, 5-1, did not do as well in the championship game as Valor Christian edged the Sabercats 70-68 to win the title.

Valor, 3-0, scored 18 points in the fourth quarter to upset Fossil Ridge. No statistics on the game were available.

In other Highlands Ranch sports news, Highlands Ranch High School girls basketball coach Caryn Jarocki won her 700th career game on Dec. 8 with a 50-31 victory over Mullen.

Jarocki improved her record to 700-184 in 38 seasons as a high school coach, 19 of which have been at Highlands Ranch after starting out at Colorado Academy.

The former University of Denver player is the winningest girls basketball coach in Colorado high school history. She has won seven state titles.

Chaparral tops Castle View in overtime

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Luke McCall of Chaparral had a good feeling when he let his shot go from the top of the left wing faceoff circle.

McCall’s shot in overtime settled into the high corner of the goal to give Chap a 4-3 win over Castle View in a hockey game played on Dec. 10.

“I was just trying to get our team going and have a positive attitude on the bench,” said McCall. “I got lucky enough to bury one. I had a good suspicion it was going in. He (Castle View goalie) left the right side open and I had to take it.”

Chaparral is proving early in the season that it is not the same team as last year.

The Wolverines gave up two goals in the third period, which gave the Sabercats a 3-2 lead, but senior Alex Benson-Byrness scored late in the period to send the game into overtime.

McCall, who also had the first goal of the contest, scored again to end the game.

“It was a huge win,” said Chap

Castle View, coached by Michael Dubus, is also a co-op team and saw its record dip to 1-3.

Dealing with grief during the holidays

have experienced trauma and abuse.

Here are their thoughts about dealing with grief this time of year:

Every season is grief season

requires a large measure of selfforgiveness and self-care as well as understanding and setting boundaries. Allowing yourself to “feel your feelings” is an important part of grieving.

BY BOB MOOK SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Between gatherings with friends and family — and the “expectation” of joyfulness — the holiday season can be fraught with stress, even in the happiest of times. For those grieving the loss of a loved one, a broken relationship or a career setback, the season can be especially challenging.

One thing is for certain: There is no right way or wrong way to grieve, according to University of Colorado College of Nursing Assistant Professor Heather Coats and Associate Professor of Clinical Teaching Kerry Peterson.

Dr. Coats has more than 20 years of clinical experience in palliative, oncology and hospice care. Her research focuses on improving quality of communication and the psychological-social-spiritual well-being of people living with serious illnesses, as well as their families.

Dr. Peterson is the specialty director of CU Nursing’s Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Program. She has worked clinically with patients who are struggling with many types of grief, with an emphasis on psychotherapy and interventions for individuals who

During the holidays, many of us host or participate in gatherings and traditions with the expectation that everybody should be happy. For those and other reasons, one might think that grief would become more exacerbated, but it’s a year-long phenomenon. Still, the absence of certain loved ones might be especially noticeable in the days from Thanksgiving through New Year’s Day.

“Grieving is a process,” Coats says. “Part of the process is recognizing what the triggers are. Maybe your loved one died in summer — so, the onset of summer is the trigger. Maybe your loved one died at Christmas, so that’s a trigger. But grief is not something that should be considered or thought about only during the holidays.”

Peterson points out that people have their own unique grief experiences. Even though a family might be grieving the same loved one, one person might feel extreme sadness while another might still experience a sense of joy and happiness during this special time.

Acknowledge your feelings

In the holiday season or any other time of the year, Coats and Peterson say that dealing with grief

“There needs to be a recognition that the holidays create a lot of hustle and bustle,” Coats says. “But that doesn’t mean you take away the grief and put the hustle and bustle in its place so that you live in denial that the grief is there. Don’t let the hustle and bustle not allow you to grieve.”

Peterson encourages people who are grieving to reach out and get support, so that they can experience the holidays in different ways — perhaps by establishing some new traditions.

“Sometimes it might be too painful, but people who are grieving can still find comfort in keeping traditions or creating new ones to honor the memory of their loved one — such as lighting a candle or playing a favorite Christmas song,” she says. “Lean into whatever it is that harkens to things that once brought you joy with the beloved, instead of pushing it away and not thinking about it.”

In dealing with longer-term grief, Peterson recommends grief support groups because they let the bereaved connect with others who are experiencing a loss. She adds that psychotherapy and prescription medications could help those who experience prolonged grief that leads to isolation and severe

depression. The latest edition of DSM-5 (the diagnostic manual used by mental health professionals) added “prolonged grief disorder” as a diagnosis earlier this year, making it easier for clinicians to identify and diagnose people who need treatment and support.

Support those who are grieving

Not everyone is at the same point in their grieving journey. If you are further along in processing grief than your friends and family, Peterson says you can best support others by asking what you could do to help and not making assumptions.

“You probably shouldn’t assume a friend isn’t ready to go to a party because she just lost her husband,” she says. “It might be helpful for her to continue with activities and social connections.”

Coats maintains that because grief is different for everyone, it is important to be “cued in” to friends and families during the holidays and beyond.

“It’s important to allow someone the space to grieve and to know that they are sad and missing someone,” she says. “It is also important to pick up on the cues that allows people to continue processing. The holidays can be a really healing space — so long as someone feels acceptance for that grief.”

Drs. Coats and Peterson discussed the new diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder in the Five to Thrive Podcast in September 2022.

State releases drug list from Canada

Asks feds for approval

BY JOHN INGOLD THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado took another step toward importing lower-cost prescription drugs from Canada on Dec. 5 when it submitted a formal application to the federal government for approval of the program.

The application for the first time reveals which drugs Colorado hopes to import — 112 of them in all, at an average cost savings of 65% over U.S. retail price. An analysis by the state Department of Health Care Policy and Financing estimates that the importation program could save Coloradans $53 million to $88 million annually on prescription drug spending.

“It’s a huge step for us,” said Lauren Reveley, the drug importation

program manager at HCPF, which is overseeing the program. “It’s a significant milestone.”

The drugs on the list contain quite a few familiar names. There are EpiPens, which the state estimates it can get at a 66% price reduction from Canada — $91.13 per pop, instead of the $264.89 the HCPF analysis says they cost in the U.S. There are drugs to treat diabetes, cancer, multiple sclerosis, asthma and irritable bowel syndrome. There are drugs to help people stop smoking.

The most expensive drug on the list — the HIV treatment medication Cabenuva — could be imported from Canada for more than $3,000 less per dose, according to the state’s analysis. The least-costly drug on the list, the thyroid medication Synthroid, costs 95 cents per dose in the U.S. but can be had for 7 cents per dose in Canada — a savings of 93%.

“Colorado’s Drug Importation Pro-

gram is a major piece in our work to lower the cost of prescription drugs, and this final step gets us even closer to making lower health costs a reality for Coloradans,” Gov. Jared Polis said in a statement.

Assembling the drug list

The drug list was created by looking at drugs that “are high cost or high volume drugs that Colorado consumers struggle to afford,” the state wrote in its application to the federal government. To make that determination, the state used data from the Colorado All-Payer Claims Database, a warehouse for information on what Colorado consumers and insurers are actually paying for health care and prescription drug costs. That makes the numbers uniquely tailored to Colorado.

The program is not allowed to import biologic drugs, which is why a medicine like insulin is not includ-

ed. And the drug list also contains a number of other important caveats.

For one, the list is “aspirational,” according to the state’s application. In order to actually be able to import the drugs, Colorado will need not only the approval of the U.S. federal government but also the OK from the Canadian government and the agreement of the drugs’ manufacturers.

“We anticipate our initial list for the early years of the program to be significantly more narrow than the list presented,” the state wrote in its application. “In large part, this is due to likely modest participation from manufacturers in the short term, with a focus on small innovator companies and generic manufacturers. We believe, however, that with proof of the importation concept, more manufacturers will agree to participate due to market incentives that importation can offer.”

NOTICE OF ADOPTION

John Doe, whose last known address is unknown, and whose current place of residence and whereabouts are unknown and cannot with reasonable diligence be ascertained, will take notice that on January 26, 2022, John and Rita Belier filed their Petition for Adoption of T. B., Case No. 2022JA93, in the Juvenile Adoption Court, Arapahoe County, Colorado, praying that they be permitted by order of the Court, to adopt, as their own child, the child T. B., a minor born at Lakewood, Colorado, alleging among other things in said Petition that John Doe, the natural father, has failed without justifiable cause, to provide more than de minimis contact with the minor or to provide for the maintenance and support of the minor as required by law or judicial decree for a period of at least one (1) year preceding the filing of the Adoption Petition.

"A final decree of adoption, if granted will relieve you of all parental rights and responsibilities, including the right to contact the minor, and except with respect to a spouse of the adoption petitioner and relatives of that spouse, terminate all legal relationships between the minor and you and the minor’s other relatives, so that the minor thereafter is a stranger to you and the minor’s former relatives for all purposes. If you wish to contest the adoption, you must file a response to the petition within forty-two days of the first publication of this Notice or suffer a default. If you wish to contest the adoption, you must also appear in person before the Court." A final decree of adoption may be entered if you fail to file an objection to the adoption petition or appear at the hearing. You have a right to have counsel represent you at the hearing on your Objection to the Adoption Petition.

The Petition will be heard for determination by the Honorable Judge Don Jesse Toussaint in Division 22 of the Juvenile Adoption Court of Arapahoe County, Colorado, 7325 South Potomac Street, Centennial, Colorado 80112 on the 26th day of January 2023, at1:30 p.m.
