City manager’s contract draws fire Longevity pay violates spirit of charter, councilor says By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Michael Penny’s contract, amended for a second time March 19, has been the subject of public scrutiny since he became Littleton’s first city manager to have one.
The first amendment to Penny’s contract added longevity pay, and the most recent one attempts to clarify how that money will be paid to the city manager. The latest amendment passed 4-3, with councilors Bruce Beckman, Peggy Cole Penny and Jerry Valdes against. All three said they had no problem with Penny or his performance, they just weren’t comfortable with the contract as written.
Local activists are arguing the contract violates the charter, and Cole was concerned enough to ask for more discussion before voting March 19. At issue is the negotiated longevity pay that gives Penny one month’s salary for each year worked, up to 11 months, to be paid all at once upon his departure if he leaves in good favor. The city’s charter says nothing about longevity pay for the city manager, but it requires severance pay — the balance of the month plus another month — should he be terminated for any reason. “I believe it violates the spirit of the char-
ter,” said Cole, noting benefits are usually paid over the course of one’s tenure, not at the end. The city charter covers some of the terms of Penny’s employment, but former City Attorney Kirsten Crawford told council when they approved the contract last year that it is more specific and detailed than the charter provisions, and it can be revised. “The city would have the ability (under the contract) to provide little or no severance to the city manager if he is terminated Contract continues on Page 7

Emergency drill ends in chocolate Tri-County Health holds practice run at ACC
By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Dozens of “anthrax victims” swarmed into Arapahoe Community College March 22, clamoring for a cure. Happily, M&Ms did the trick. The college was the scene of a Tri-County Health Department disaster drill, a test to see how many doses of medicine staff could dispense in an hour. Not enough volunteer “patients” turned out to get a good answer, but there was a steady stream of folks unable to resist free chocolate. In 2009, Tri-County experienced the real deal. During the “swine flu” epidemic that killed thousands of people worldwide, it set up shop at ACC and more than 60 other sites in Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties, handing out 64,000 vaccinations POSTAL ADDRESS
in 24 days. “This is what Tri-County Health Department is all about,” said Dr. Richard Vogt, executive director. “Our job is to be on the front lines.” But with no major local disasters since, it never hurts to stay in practice. Tri-County gets federal funds each year for emergency preparedness. “We have a bunch of dedicated individuals figuring out how to respond to the crisis at hand,” explained Dr. Richard Vogt, executive director. Eighty-three of them were on hand for the drill, filling roles such as runners, greeters and line monitors. Intake workers were prepared to handle whatever twists they faced, from what to do if someone was drunk or allergic to the medicine to how to handle a family that only spoke Nepalese. “It went without a hitch,” said Vogt. Nursing student Corey Smith spent the first day of her clinical rotation at Tri-County on the “M&M team.”
“I really want to help others, so it was a good experience for me,” she said. “Totally new.” In addition to candy, everyone got a practical goodie bag with a water bottle, first-aid kit and lots of useful information about what to do in a real emergency and other services Tri-County offers, like immunizations, prenatal care, environmental safety and disease control. Tri-County is the largest local health department in the state, serving more than a million people in the three counties it serves — about half the population of the metro area. With so many to take care of, Vogt encourages everyone to make sure their homes are stocked for an emergency with things like water, blankets, canned food and flashlights. “If everybody were to expect delivery of those things, it would really be impossible,” he said.

Littleton City Manager Michael Penny has narrowed down 45 applications to five finalists he will consider to replace outgoing Police Chief Heather Coogan. The candidates he announced March 22 are Cmdr. Frances L. Gomez of the Aurora Police Department; Cmdr. Rob McGregor of the Aurora Police Department; former Chief Richard W. Myers of the Colorado Springs Police Department; Capt. Douglas Stephens of the Denver Police Department; and Chief Robert L. Ticer of the Avon Police Department. “I am excited about the candidates and look forward to meeting them in person,” said Penny. “I am looking for a chief who will take what is working well and build on that — someone who will critically evaluate where we have opportunities for improvement.” Coogan announced her retirement Jan. 18, just months after a survey of city employees showed the police department was less satisfied with its direct supervision and senior leadership than other departments. At the time, Penny said the results revealed opportunities to work toward positive change. Coogan’s last day is officially April 1, and division chiefs Bob Brandt and Bill Christensen are exiting with her. They’re taking advantage of a new incentive offered to all Littleton sworn officers age 57 and older. In exchange for retiring now, their health insurance will be paid until they’re 65. Cmdr. Gene Enley will serve as acting chief, and Cmdrs. Kim Ferber and Paul Creadon will be acting division chiefs. Penny said he’ll leave the decision about permanently replacing Brandt and Christensen up to the new chief, whom he hopes to have in place by May. Starting in mid-April, Penny will get input from interview panels, including citizens, chiefs in other jurisdictions, Littleton police and other department heads. More than 40 people will be involved in the interviews, but the ultimate decision will be his.

HealthSouth joins medical cluster Rehabilitation hospital will offer physical, occupational therapy By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com A new addition to South Park’s burgeoning health-care cluster is nearing completion and should be operating by May. David Shefte, CEO of HealthSouth’s newest physical rehabilitation hospital, says the $25 million, 49,000-square-foot facility will add up to 100 jobs to the community. The newly constructed building sits on nearly 12 acres at 1001 W. Mineral Ave. It joins a bevy of health-related companies springing up around Littleton Adventist Hospital. Eric Ervin, the city’s marketing analyst, says such concentrations are good for economic development because they attract other related businesses and suppliers. A medical cluster, in particular, could lure higher-paid professionals who might help fill the high-end apartment complex recently approved for the intersection of County Line Road and Erickson Boulevard.
Shefte said HealthSouth fills a gap in the cluster. It provides rehabilitation therapies for people recovering from things like stroke, fractures, cardiac disorders and spinal-cord injuries. It also tends to permanent conditions such as brain injury, Parkinson’s disease or general debilitation. “A patient may be ready to leave the hospital but not ready to go home, and that’s where our niche is,” said Shefte. HealthSouth has private rooms for 40 patients, and will also provide out-patient services. The average stay for an in-patient is around 12 days, compared to 30 for longerterm care at nursing homes or hospitals like Craig in Englewood. Patients get at least three hours of therapy a day, including physical, occupational and speech therapies. “Our mission is to get people back home,” said Lisa Hinton, marketing director. Shefte said the facility fills a need that he discovered when his own father-in-law, who lives nearby, had to go to Aurora to get similar care. “We’re bringing such a service to the community,” he said. “There was such a

rBroadway projects could snarl traffic Denver Water to start work at three sites in April By Tom Munds
t m u n d s @ o u rc o l o r a d o news.com
Traffic delays loom in mid-April as the Denver Water Department begins three major line and valve repair projects. Work will be done in phases, and the estimated completion date for all projects is the end of May or perhaps June. “The exact start and completion dates are uncertain because it takes thistime to do all the notificaclin-tions and meet the other requirements,” said Larry Nimmo, Englewood’s public works field operations administrator. “However, we have been assured signs will go up announcing the project at least two weeks before the work begins.” One project will be at Quincy and Broadway and two of the projects will be at Belleview and Broadway. “These are major projects that require closing part of Broadway,” Rick Kahm, public works director, told the Englewood City Council at the March 18 study session. “The work is on two large water lines, one 30 inches in diameter and one 60 inches in diameter. There will also be work on a number of important valves that aren’t working properly. To do this work, it will require digging trench-
es 20 feet wide and 12 feet deep.” The work will mean blocking off a portion of the street, but Kahm said the city is working with Denver Water on plans to keep two lanes of traffic flowing in each direction during the projects. He said plans call for the contractor to take out the medians, allowing traffic to be shifted so there will be two lanes in each direction. Shifting the lanes at Belleview and Broadway may make it necessary to eliminate the two left-turn lands for the duration of the project. Kahm said the water repair projects will make it difficult to get to some of the businesses in those two locations. To make sure everyone knows the plans for Broadway closures, the city is working with Denver Water to send out notifications to 1,400 residents and businesses in the next week. One of the projects is in the middle of the intersection of Belleview and Broadway. The state highway department has told Denver Water that all work on that project must be done only on the weekends. The exact dates of the intersection work haven’t been established. With the anticipated traffic disruption, Kahm said Englewood is working with Littleton to place message signs warning drivers about the construction on Broadway from mid-April until at least mid-May as far south as Mineral Avenue.

Lawmakers mull aerial fire fleet for Colorado By Vic Vela
vvela@ourcoloradonews.com As drought continues to plague the West, and with the memories of blazes that covered much of the state last summer still fresh, a group of lawmakers on March 21 announced their plans to introduce a bill to create an aerial firefighting fleet in Colorado. B u t what they don’t know Report yet is how much such a bold undertaking would cost, or how they would pay for it. Four legislators told reporters during a Capitol press conference that wildfire season has already begun, and that Colorado can’t always rely on the federal government’s limited aerial fleet to come to its rescue, whenever
Capitol
massive fires break out. State Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge, said the federal government has slashed its firefighting air fleet over the years, leaving Colorado in a potentially precarious situation for this and future wildfire seasons. “They have an entire country to cover and that could be a very dangerous situation for Colorado,” Jahn said of the federal government’s role in fighting fires. “When we make that phone call to the federal government and say we need assistance, you hope they can show up.” Jahn was joined at the press conference by Democratic Senate President John Morse and Senate Minority Leader Bill Cadman, both of Colorado Springs, as well as Republican Sen. Steve King of Grand Junction, who will co-sponsor the forthcoming legislation with Jahn. “Quite frankly, we are one lightning strike, one careless match throw, one terrorist intentional match throw
away from a catastrophic wildfire in Colorado,” King said. “God help us if that is in one of our watersheds.” But what no one was prepared to talk about was how much a wildfire aerial fleet is expected to cost. “Good question,” King said when a reporter asked about the price tag. “Next question,” quipped Cadman. King said that “we’re working on that,” saying they would need cost input from the Department of Public Safety, which would be in charge of the fleet. King also said that the department would “figure out” how many planes it would need. King also said lawmakers will look into receiving federal funding. Last year’s wildfire season in Colorado was particularly destructive. The Waldo Canyon Fire that started northwest of Colorado Springs in June destroyed more than 350 homes. Earlier that month, the High Park Fire in Larimer County burned more than 87,000 acres.

Photo courtesy of HSSPV Schomp is also kicking in $15,000 to help sponsor community activities at HSSPV, such as training classes, a lecture series on topics like animal welfare, and a spruced-up community room. “We are really looking forward to the partnership,” said Jay Andre, Schomp’s general manager. “This is a very unique opportunity that fits in well with our commitment to give back to our community. I have to say, I’m really excited about building the adoption vehicle. It will be a fun project for us, and we really believe that it will help the humane society find homes for so many more wayward animals.” Maisonneuve has been working hard to stabilize
Denver Water restricts use
Because the city of Littleton is served by Denver Water, residents should be aware of mandatory watering restrictions expected to go into effect April 1 that will limit everyone to two watering days a week. Despite recent snows in parts of Colorado, most of the state is in the second year of a severe drought that’s not getting better, according to a Denver Water press release. “We’ve never seen conditions like this, and we are concerned about our water supply,” said Jim Lochhead, CEO/manager of Denver Water. “Our reservoirs haven’t been full since July 2011. We need our customers’ help to reduce water use and keep as much water as possible in storage as we move through this year and into the next.” Single-family properties with evennumbered addresses can water Sunday and Thursday, those with odd-numbered addresses on Saturday and Wednesday, and all other properties on Tuesday and Friday.
During South Suburban Parks and Recreation’s Customer Appreciation Week, March 31 through April 7, there will be discounts on passes and services like massages or facials. The week will feature complimentary refreshments, blood pressure checks and lobby art activities at various times and locations. For more information, visit www.ssprd.org/.

the facility since she took the helm last October. The partnership with Schomp helps fulfill her goals of getting the community more involved and making the shelter more efficient. Littleton and Englewood each provided $100,000 to kick-start HSSPV in 2009, and agreed to pay $50,000 a year for animal-sheltering services. Both councils gave the shelter an extra $41,000 for 2012 — for a total of $91,000 each. Littleton City Manager Michael Penny warned he expected it to be the last time. Since then, Mayor Debbie Brinkman has been working with nearby communities to explore options for housing lost or abandoned animals throughout the south metro region.

le Gun-control bills become law Opponents see overreach in Democratic measures By Vic Vela
vvela@ourcoloradonews.com Recollection of death and violence has hung over the Capitol throughout much of the legislative session, as gun bills have dominated lawmakers’ attention. And that was even before the head of the state Department of Corrections was shot to death inside his home, just hours before
Gov. John Hickenlooper signed three guncontrol bills into law on March 20. Hickenlooper and Democratic leaders held a Capitol press conference to announce the bill signings. But their mood was somber, with the slaying of DOC Executive Director Tom Clements from the night before in the back of their minds. Gun violence that continues to rattle the nation is exactly why Democrats put so much political capital into gun-control efforts this session. But Republicans say Democrats will rue the day for their overreach.
Among the bills signed by Hickenlooper was House Bill 1229, which requires universal background checks on gun sales and transfers in Colorado. Hickenlooper also signed House Bill 1224, which limits the number of rounds an ammunition magazine can carry to 15. Hickenlooper also signed House Bill 1228, which will end the taxpayer subsidization of fees associated with gun background checks. Not a single Republican voted for any of the gun bills that Hickenlooper signed on March 20.

State’s obesity numbers hint at changing future Colorado adults slimmest in U.S., but children fall in middle range By Kevin Vaughan I-News Network
Colorado is continually heralded as the fittest state in the country — but behind that ranking stand a host of health measures that paint a different picture, placing the state mid-pack or worse in things such as infant mortality and binge drinking. And even that No. 1 ranking — best — among the 50 states in the rate of adult obesity may mask serious future troubles: Colorado stands 23rd in childhood obesity and is even farther down the list in other key measures of the overall health of the state’s youngest population. “If we’re 23rd in kids and No. 1 in adults, how sustainable is that?” asked James Hill, a University of Colorado pediatrics professor who is involved in extensive obesity research. “I think that’s reason to be concerned — I really do.” Emily King, a research analyst at the Colorado Health Institute who compiled the data, said it is impossible to simply look at the numbers and project the future. But it also may portend a reality very different from that experienced by the state’s adult population today. “The fact that our childhood obesity rate is much higher than it was in the past suggests that our adult obesity rates will be higher a couple of decades from now because we know that obese children are more likely to grow up to be obese adults,” she said. Other measures in the health institute’s data also suggested serious challenges for Colorado on issues related to children. For example, the state ranked 31st in late or non-existent prenatal care, 37th in low birthweight babies and 42nd in children without insurance, according to an I-News examination of the health institute’s data. That data underpins the Colorado Health Foundation’s annual Colorado Health Report card. The report card uses the most recently available data to measure the relative health of Coloradans across a variety of areas that look at different stages of life, from pre-natal and newborn care to adolescence, adulthood and the process of aging. The Colorado Health Foundation used the data this year to ask the question: “What if we were No. 1?” And while the state currently is when it comes to adult waistlines — 20.9 percent of the state’s population of 18- to 64-year-olds are obese, the lowest per-
centage in the nation — it’s a different issue when it comes to children. The most recent data estimated that 14.2 percent of the state’s children were obese. Oregon, by comparison, was No. 1, with 9.6 percent of its children obese. The Colorado Health Foundation estimated that if Colorado were to climb to No. 1 in childhood obesity, it would have 24,900 fewer kids living at an unhealthy weight. The foundation estimated other categories where changes in Colorado’s ranking would mean dramatic changes in statistics — and, perhaps, economics. For example, the foundation estimated that Colorado residents and their employers could save $121 million a year in health care costs if it had the lowest rate of depression among the 50 states. In Colorado, 14.7 percent of the state’s adults reported that they had experienced “poor mental health.” That left Colorado ranked 13th among the states while North Dakota was No. 1, with 11.9 percent of adults reporting mental health problems. The report card also found that Colorado, if it could move to the top spot among the states, would annually have 2,100 more babies born at a healthy weight, 32,600 fewer high school students who smoke cigarettes, and 376,800 fewer adults who binge drink. The news wasn’t all bad — Colorado was first in older adults who participate in regular physical activity, fourth in adolescents who participate in regular physical activity and fifth-lowest in mothers who smoked during pregnancy. Still, CU professor Hill said he worries about the future if the state can’t address the growing number of people who are obese. “Preventing obesity is going to be easier than treating it, so we’ve got to get serious about kids and preventing obesity in the first place,” Hill said. He said he would push for a simple goal in the beginning — for Colorado to maintain its current obesity rate as an important first step. “Let’s focus on not gaining weight, rather than losing weight,” Hill said. “In other words, if our obesity rates stayed the same in Colorado, the projected savings over the next seven to 10 years are in billions.” I-News is the public service journalism arm of Rocky Mountain PBS.

Littleton OKs brewery plan Breckenridge gets zoning change for Santa Fe site By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Roll out the barrel, the gang’s all here. More specifically, the gang’s all on board with Breckenridge Brewery. Littleton City Council unanimously approved the zoning change that allows Breckenridge to build a 12-acre, $20 million brewery and restaurant on Santa Fe Drive. Construction should begin this fall on the restaurant — with seating for up to 250 — tasting room, guest accommodations, fermenting building, warehouse, brewhouse, gift shop and more, all designed to attract “beer tourists.” It’s expected to open in the fall of 2014 and employ up to 75 people. “This has all gone like it was supposed to go, and like it was supposed to happen,” said Ed Cerkovnik, president of BW Holdings LLC, the joint venture between Breckenridge and Wynkoop breweries. The partnership allows Breckenridge to circumvent a state law that limits how much beer a brewery can make in a year to 60,000 gallons by setting up the facility to act as a “host” for other pubs in the overarching corporation.

Cerkovnik said Breckenridge is currently the 41st-largest brewer in the county. “We could probably be in the top 25 if we could brew more beer,” he said. The approval also allows the adjacent Designs by Sundown, owned by longtime Littletonite Michael Hommel, to expand. He’ll employ up to 150 people in peak season. The two companies coordinated to create a unified site with a rural, agricultural feel. It’s south of
Meadowood mobile-home community, which caters to seniors, and north of Wolhurst Landing’s single-family homes. A hops field will line Santa Fe on the east side of the site. On the west, city-owned open space buffers the river from the development. Heights are limited to 60 feet, shorter than Aspen Grove’s 65 feet, and the buildings are designed to resemble rural farmhouses and barns. A sticking point is drainage.
Sunshine Boys put heat on council By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com The Sunshine Boys, who describe themselves as an informal local government watchdog group, have resumed regular appearances at recent city council meetings to speak on topics such as density, transparency and City Manager Michael Penny’s contract. Former Mayor Doug Clark, now a private citizen after leaving counClark cil to make an unsuccessful bid for Arapahoe County commissioner, remains active with the Sunshine Boys. He attended the March 19 council meeting to speak during time set aside for public comment, saying he thinks Penny’s contract
violates the city charter “You think if you call severance pay a different name, nobody will know it’s severance pay,” he argued. Clark led the Sunshine-controlled council, elected in 2007, that hired Penny in 2012. Carol Brzeczek and her husband, Marty, are also active with Sunshine. She recently relaunched her blog, “Citizens’ View of Littleton Colorado,” which had gone quiet in 2010. “You are no longer trustworthy,” Brzeczek told council March 19. She’s been particularly concerned about why the contract is being discussed in executive session, and Councilor Jerry Valdes wondered the same thing when the amendment appeared on first reading March 5. He said the contract itself wasn’t a legally protected personnel matter. Councilor Peggy Cole tried to
break the meeting into two parts, one for legal advice (protected, as are negotiations) and one for the contract. Her motion died for lack of a second. Councilor Bruce Beckman also hesitated, but reserved the right to open the door if he felt like they were straying. In the end, they all emerged from the room together. Valdes clarified March 19 that he trusts staff’s advice but will listen equally to his constituents. “I am not a rubber stamp,” he said. After listening to accusations flying from the floor, Beckman jabbed back, saying he was tired of being accused of things he hadn’t done. “I want to talk about integrity,” he said. “I don’t think it just happens overnight, and it doesn’t go away overnight. … It’s in the best interest of this city to quit slinging mud.”
Charlie Blosten, the city’s director of public works, says it needs a regional solution to accommodate this and future development. The last study was done in 1990, and improvements to Santa Fe since then mean a new study is due. The Urban Drainage and Flood Control District can’t do it until next year, but it recommends an open channel. Blosten’s preference, and the developer’s, would be an underground channel draining into the open space, which could become
The Independent 7
a pond or wetlands amenity. In the meantime, the proposal doesn’t outline a plan. “We don’t know what it is that we should build,” said Blosten. Douglas Buck, owner of Meadowood, notes the 1990 study put his property in the flood plain of the gulch on the east side of Santa Fe. He agrees that improvements might have fixed that, but he’d still like to be sure. Those who attended the council’s public hearing were fairly evenly split on the project. Immediate neighbors had the usual concerns about things like odors, views and noise. “Industrial between two residential areas is wrong for that area,” said Richard Carlson. Glen Van Nimwegen, the city’s director of community development, said most of their issues are addressed through city code or the specific plan. In particular, he noted all the smells and steam coming from the brewery will be from natural ingredients, and there shouldn’t be too many given that the company’s hightech equipment captures up to 98 percent of the vapor. Mayor Debbie Brinkman lives in Wolhurst adjacent to the site, where Walmart wanted to build in 2006. Her leadership of the antiWalmart faction launched her political career, but she said this is the perfect plan for the land. “This is more lush, more plush,” she said. “This is, in my opinion, a very happy ending.”

for cause, such as malfeasance of office, illegal activities, etc.,” Crawford, who resigned in February, wrote in a memo. “On the other hand, the city could provide a larger severance if the city manager is terminated for reasons that are not necessarily his fault, such as disability, inability to perform, etc.” “A camel is a horse created by a committee, and that is absolutely what happened here,” said Beckman. He said the contract is confusing, and he didn’t want to be responsible for approving something that might give future councils problems. Several councilors defended their method and intent. “Our intent was simply to
provide a mechanism to secure a qualified candidate for the most important position in the city,” said Mayor Debbie Brinkman. Councilors Jim Taylor and Phil Cernanec said Littleton doesn’t pay its manager as much as some cities, and called the pay a reward designed to make the job more competitive. Councilor Bruce Stahlman pointed out they had special legal counsel review the contract, and it passed muster. “I fear this truly has ended up as a situation where no good deed goes unpunished,” he said. Penny became Littleton’s city manager in October 2011, following the retirement of Jim Woods. Penny worked for six months without a contract, until it was finalized in March 2012.

Littleton Elks bestow annual awards First responders, students among those earning group’s kudos By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com The Littleton Elks 2013 Citizen of the Year praised the organization for exhibiting the behavior it was rewarding at its annual banquet March 23. “You don’t just look at your own narrow life, you take that extra effort to make a difference,” said Susan Beckman, who did just that through her 15 years as an elected official, first on Littleton City Council and then as an Arapahoe County Commissioner. “Susan touched nearly every issue that affects our lives,” said Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman. “She sees a problem as an opportunity and jumps into it.”
Each year, the Littleton Elks gather for a big Italian feast to pay tribute to men and women who dedicate their lives to serving the community. In addition to honoring a citizen, they recognize first responders and give scholarships to deserving students. This year’s Arapahoe County Deputy of the Year is Jason Bacon, who launched his career in law enforcement in the Boy Scouts’ Explorer program. He joined the sheriff’s department in 1996, and has been on the SWAT team for 16 years. “I work with 700 great people, and they don’t get better than Jason,” said Undersheriff Dave Walcher. The Littleton Police Officer of the Year earned the award in the nick of time, just a week before his retirement after 35 years at the department. Ann Marie Dinkel of the Elks praised Detective Russ Hoffman’s knowledge, ethics and courage in solving crimes, like the murder of young Anthony Davalos in Febru-

“They appear easy to solve on TV, but we all know that’s not the case,” said Dinkel. Littleton Fire Rescue Officer of the year Bryon Barr and EMS of the Year Jens Pietrzyk were unable
to attend the ceremony, which went on despite one of the biggest snowstorms of the year, but they both demonstrate dedication and passion for their jobs. Heritage High School student Ryan Greenway, who earned the Elks National Federation scholarship, took a moment in his acceptance speech to thank the first responders in the room. “Littleton’s a very safe, tightknit community because of your efforts,” he said.
Dinner and a movie made easy New theater offers food, drinks By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com After a week of staff training, Littleton’s new Alamo Draft House Signature Programming Week will be open April 4-11, geared to show off the special kinds of experiences the company offers. This isn’t your grand-
mother’s cinema, but sing-alongs, quote-alongs, theme meals, 32 kinds of draft beer, a cocktail menu and more are scheduled at this new spot in Aspen Grove, Santa Fe and Mineral. The first 150 staff members are hired and in training. Projections are for a much larger staff when up and running. At a March 18 press preview, black-clad young people were everywhere one looked, anxiously listening to instruc-
tions. See drafthouse.com/ careers if interested in employment. Walk into the lobby and you are greeted by a trio of white, furry Yetis with blue faces. They hang from the light fixture, holding some globes of light. Each theater in the chain has a special custom fixture and this was the corporate vision for Colorado. A ticket booth and bar are just inside the door. (Since alcohol is served, children are not allowed — aside from Tuesdays before 2 p.m., when parents can bring baby along.) Thirty-five-millimeter reels are converted into light fixtures on lobby and theater walls, mounted against a patterned red wallpaper. There are seven theaters, ranging in size from 38 to 204 seats, all with
THROUGH JUNE 21; JULY 19-20
a standard wood table between each two seats. The smallest one could be rented for a birthday party or other celebration and has a 35-millimeter projector as well as the standard digital one. The huge kitchen is on the second floor and is capable of turning out 1,000 meals in an hour, overseen by chef Seth Rexroad. One finds a menu on a shelf under the table, fills out an order card and places it for the server, who carries it to the kitchen and delivers food and drink to the seat. The menu is long and includes pizza, salad, sandwiches and sometimes more. During the first week, there will be $2 tickets and half-price food. For example, there is an all-you-caneat spaghetti dinner paired

Disaster drill tests community responders Volunteers match wits with mock tornado, real snowstorm By Deborah Grigsby
dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com
In spite of a snowstorm, volunteers with the Community Emergency Response Team went looking for tornado victims. Although the tornado didn’t really happen, the snowstorm did, and more than 80 local volunteers took part in a countywide hichmock disaster drill on March 23 in Littleton. ggest “This is our sixth year of conducting the theyexercise,” said CERT Coordinator Mickey andKempf, “but the snowstorm this year is a relatively new concept.” dent The CERT program educates people d theabout disaster preparedness, particularly chol-for hazards that may impact their area, said s ac-Scott Sickafoose, spokesman for the Arapafirsthoe County Sheriff’s Office.

LHS, Japanese students join to create ‘kizuna’ Teens trade experiences for sake of friendship By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com
Twenty-three students, the principal and band director from Littleton High School recently returned from what they call a “journey to better understand bar, Japanese culture, the devastating o the consequences of the March 2011 nd is tsunami, and the power of hope ell as and friendship for an international community in the face of other a crisis.” spen The Japanese government taps simply calls it “kizuna.” l be- “Kizuna” is Japanese for “bonds of friendship,” and that country’s government implemented the program to bring American high-schoolers to the affected area to see the reality their Japanese counterparts are living. “They wanted us to learn that they didn’t want to be forgotten,” said LHS student Catherine Patton. “People there don’t want to forget what happened, because their lives were behind them, and they needed a beginning.” Twenty-five participants apiece from eight schools in the United States were chosen to participate in the Kizuna Program, and LHS was the only one from Colorado. It was also the only school to send band students, to share the universal language of music. Their trip, led by Principal Amy Oaks and Don Emmons, the school band director, included volunteering in the Tohoku region and sightseeing in Tokyo. While there, they met Japanese students whose lives were forever changed that day. “Some of my classmates were

missing,” related one young man, now a senior in high school. “The newspapers showed the missing names, and my closest childhood friend was on that list. I remember crying all night. Seven classmates were killed in the tsunami. When I was reunited with my classmates, my teacher told us who was dead. We all cried. I was angry. I thought over and over again, `Why am I still alive?’” That young man and many of his classmates from Tohoku Institute of Technology in Sendai, Miyagi, visited Littleton High School March 22. They spoke halting English in front of an auditorium full of LHS students, describing a typical school day in their hometown. Other than the fact they wear uniforms, things aren’t too different, they said. “I concentrate during class, and enjoy talks with my friends during break time,” said one young man. Like here, sports are a big deal. Martial arts, soccer and fencing are popular. A former student, Suguru Awaji, even won a silver medal in the team foil event in the 2012 Summer Olympics. Another student spoke of some cultural differences in things like gestures and body language. “We will do our best to avoid rude manners,” he said, netting a laugh from American and Japanese students alike. Apparently Bon Jovi is something teens around the world can agree on, as one group of Japanese students played “Make a Memory” as background music to their presentation. LHS student Hannah Poe said it’s about the global community coming together. “It’s important that we look out for each other,” she said.
Young people ponder value, optimism Club announces winners of annual essay competition By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com At an age when most teens are wondering about their own selfworth, some recently pondered ways to help others realize theirs, thanks to a local Optimists club. “How can I tell them that they’re loved without the awkward telling them, `I love you?’” asks Courtney Belin in the essay she submitted to LUMC Optimists’ for the first round of the Optimist International Essay Contest. Members and parents gathered at Littleton United Methodist Church March 20 to listen to the winning students read their work. Belin won first place with her answer to her question. Saying “I love you” is as simple as her essay title: “The Complete, Potent and Nutritional Compliment-a-Day.” Healthy as a vitamin, she said, a compliment can be big or small, easy or complex, as long as it’s uttered out loud. “A good friend is someone who brings out the best in someone else,” she said.
From left, Ryan TeKolste, Courtney Belin and Megan Moore were top winners in the LUMC Optiimists essay contest. Photo courtesy of Lou Jacquay Second-place winner Ryan TeKolste wrote in his essay, “Calming the Storm,” that his sense of value derives from his faith. But for some, he said, the hallways at school, the bus ride home, even logging on to Facebook can be battle zones. “One accepting behavior at the right place at the right time can save a life,” he wrote. Third-place winner Megan Moore agreed that the journey to self-worth can be a “dark path riddled with roots, brambles and boulders.” But she encourages her friends to find their true selves through creativity and individuality — to “uncover the eccentricities of their souls.” All three kids are juniors at Arapahoe High School and students in Marlys Ferrill’s language-
arts class. Each took home an engraved medallion, and Belin won $100. Her essay moves on to the district competition, where first place is a $2,500 scholarship. TeKolste thanked the members for getting him to think about the subject. “Thank you for knocking down the first domino in the chain reaction of saving lives,” he said. One mission of the Optimists is to encourage youth development, and members are encouraged to volunteer at local schools and with club-sponsored sports and scholastic competitions such as the essay contest. LUMC Optimists meets for an hour on the first and third Wednesday mornings of each month at Littleton United Methodist Church, 5894 S. Datura St.

“It was fun, but got pretty boring at times,” said 12-year-old Campbell ZantopZimlinghaus, a first-time role-player who braved the cold weather for the outdoor search and rescue task. “I was just waiting and waiting.” Campbell’s twin brother Peyton said the experience provided insight into how he might respond as a victim of disaster. “I think if I really was a victim, I think I would try to do more to be rescued,” he said. “I don’t think I’d just sit around and wait for people to find me.” Tabletop exercises forced participants to think through a variety of disaster scenarios, including earthquakes. “For every hour spent in an exercise, there are about 10 hours spent in training,” said Max Khaytsus, president of OMEGA Responders, a nonprofit search and rescue organization trained to support emergency responders. “Exercises and regular training are important to prevent skill atrophy.” CERT programs, according to Kempf, are funded by both state and federal resources, but also through support and donations from local businesses.

Now is the time to prepare for wildfires Colorado’s first major wildfire of the year didn’t even wait until spring. The Galena Fire prompted evacuations while scorching more than 1,300 acres near Fort Collins earlier this month. The blaze was an all-too-early reminder of what Coloradans went through last year, what many consider the state’s worst ever for wildfires. Statistics, provided by the Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control, tell the toll in 2012: Nearly 400,000 acres were burned. More than half a billion dollars in property was lost. The Waldo Canyon Fire alone destroyed nearly 350 homes. More than $48 million was spent in suppression efforts for the 16 largest wildfires of the year. Six civilians were killed. Already in 2013, we must turn our atten-
our view tion to fire from ice. Even after several recent storms, snowpack is below normal levels and the state’s drought lingers. With little relief in sight, Denver Water and other utilities recently announced watering restrictions. It’s possible open-burning bans are not far behind in the metro area and around the state. In anticipation of — or maybe more accurately, as a response to — wildfire season, four state legislators last week announced plans to introduce a bill that
would create a state aerial firefighting fleet. The bipartisan proposal is a response to the dry conditions in the state and to the federal government’s dwindling fleet of firefighting aircraft, which Colorado relies on for help with large blazes. “Quite frankly, we are one lightning strike, one careless match throw, one terrorist intentional match throw away from a catastrophic wildfire in Colorado,” said state Sen. Steve King, R- Grand Junction, who planned to be a sponsor of the bill. At this point, we can’t pass judgment on whether creating the fleet is the right way to go. The bill had not even been introduced as of press time. Further, the lawmakers shied away from answering questions on the program’s cost, which would include the initial funding plus
maintenance. Certainly, it wouldn’t be cheap. But we will applaud the legislators for bringing attention to and taking seriously the wildfire threat facing Colorado. The state needs more officials working toward solutions — not merely making speeches in the grim aftermath — when it comes to this issue. The burden is not on officials alone, however. We all play a role in wildfire prevention and safety. Make sure to take precautions like creating a “defensible space,” an area free from brush, around your home. If your city or county imposes open-burning restrictions in the months ahead, follow them. A year from now, we don’t want to look back at 2013 the way we do 2012.
there are times when nothing do you support civil unions? is better deal than something question of the week
With the recent passage of a bill allowing same-sex civil unions in Colorado, we asked people at the Littleton Safeway on
Mineral Avenue if they support the legislation, and how they feel about the prospect of gay marriage.
“I’m against it. I believe what the Bible says. Civil unions are not my cup of tea.” — Lee Matthews, Centennial
“Civil unions, yes. The marriage part, no, just because I think marriage is all about conceiving children.” — M.F. Howard, Littleton
“I’d say whatever anybody wants to do is fine on either one. It doesn’t affect me one way or another. To each his own.” — Sacha Black, Highlands Ranch
“I think it should extend to marriage. I believe in equality across the board. I see a lot of similarities between civil rights for African-Americans in the past and what’s happening now ….” — Corie Hudspeth, Littleton
Hanging on in quiet desperation Forty years ago, Paige Ernster invited me over to her Westwood apartment to listen to a new vinyl album. I listened to the entire album from start to finish. Now and then I still do. It remained on the “Billboard 100” for 741 weeks, and it is in the top 25 of bestselling albums, ever, in the United States. I know you know the album, and you might even know every “heartbeat, clock tick, and register ring” by heart, but I’ll bet you a case of Guinness that you can only name one song on the album: “Money.” “Money” made it to the radio, even with a profanity. Here are some other titles: “Speak to Me,” On the Run,” and “The Great Gig in the Sky.” See what I mean? You don’t know them by name, just by sound. And the sound is brilliant. “The Dark Side of the Moon” was recorded in two sessions in 1972 and 1973 at Abbey Road Studios in London. “Dark Side” was different from the band’s seven previous albums, because there were fewer extended instrumental excursions, and because the songs were seamed together. The album’s themes include “conflict, greed, the passage of time, and mental illness, the latter partly inspired by former band member Syd Barrett’s deteriorating mental state.” The lunatic is in the hall The lunatics are in my hall The paper holds their folded faces to the floor And every day the paper boy brings more. I still see the album’s cover art on Tshirts worn by teenagers. The band had seven Storm Thorgerson designs to chose from. It took them three minutes to decide. “The band trooped in,” Thorgerson said, “swept their gaze across the designs, looked at each other, nodded, and said, `That one,’ pointing at the prism.” Here are some other things you might like to know. The original working title of the album was “Eclipse” because the previous year a group called Medicine Head had released their own “Dark Side of the Moon.” When it flopped, Pink Floyd claimed the title. “Money” is one of the few hit singles
ever to utilize 7/4 signature time. I have no idea what that means. “At the very end of `Eclipse,’ in the right channel, there is the faint sound of a Muzak version of the Beatles’ `Ticket to Ride.’” A lot of these tidbits can be picked up in the documentary, “The Making of The Dark Side of the Moon.” I recommend it. I was in my mid-20s when I spent that afternoon with Paige. I was a college student. I didn’t know what was going to happen to me, so there was a lot of apprehension. And there should have been. An art degree is notorious for being impractical and almost worthless to employers. To employers other than college and universities, which is where I landed for 30 years. I lifted the name of this column from one of the songs, “Time,” and Waters lifted the words from a Henry David Thoreau poem: “Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.” It’s quite easy for me to become sentimental about “The Dark Side of the Moon.” It has been in a sidecar with me for the past 40 years. I haven’t always stayed on the road. One troubling night, I heard my old friend “Speak to Me.” Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over Thought I’d something more to say.

Sometimes it is easy to become overwhelmed and super-focused with everything that we believe matters in our lives — our families, friends, job, school, and all of our stuff and all of our activities that we pursue or collect — that we forget to find time for a little “nothing.” Obviously “nothing” is not a fourletter word and it is not even a bad word. Sometimes we can all use a little “nothing” in our lives to balance out the hectic pace, madness, and maybe even a little of the drama that may be consuming us or that has crept into our world at the moment. Finding times to be quiet and allow “nothing” to invade our mind or our space could be really healthy at times. I know that some of you may be reading this laughing and saying that there is no way to find time to do “nothing,” and if I only knew just how much madness and pressure you face each day it would be ridiculous to even propose such a thing. And that would be exactly why I am recommending that you find some time to do “nothing.” Now when I say find the time to do “nothing,” I am in no way suggesting that it should become our complete lifestyle. Finding time for “nothing” could mean just a few minutes each day. Maybe it’s even the start to our day or found at the end of a busy day where we can decompress and allow the enjoyment of “nothing” to take over. For some folks the need for “nothingness” could happen in the middle of the day as an escape. I am not sure about you, but when I actually practice this principle of “nothing,” my world comes back into perspective, I find my center, experience peace, and in some way I am actually able to accomplish more than when I am in full-on scramble mode. And in those quiet moments of my

“nothing” I also seem to hear so much more from my heart and my head that brings clarity, less worry, and comfort to what may be happening around me. My “nothingness-filled” moments oddly enough also inspire and motivate me, even spark my creativity. When was the last time you gave yourself permission to do “nothing”? Was it a quiet moment found somewhere in your home or office? Maybe you enjoyed a few minutes of “nothingness” outside during a walk or hike. There is actually a spot that I ski to sometimes in the trees where hardly anyone else ever goes, I stop and, surrounded by the aspens and pine trees, in the stillness of the mountain, I take a few minutes of doing “nothing.” Again, “nothing” really does matter when taken in the right context. Not the sluggard or sloth type associated with laziness, but rather the freeing, energizing, and yet restful form of “nothingness” that helps us to get back to where we really want to be or need to be in our life. I would love to hear your thoughts on doing “nothing” at gotonorton@gmail.com and maybe our week filled with a few moments of “nothing” will lead us to having a better than good week.

A lot going on at ‘the Cap’
There’s a lot going on down at “the Cap,” as we say, and my personal plate has been full as well. Thought you’d like to see the progress of some of my bills this session. • On March 15, my first bill of 2013 was signed into law! HB 13-1084 addresses child care licensing status when a new FEIN (Federal tax identity number) is issued. This legislation seeks to reduce child care costs for parents by eliminating duplicative red tape for child care providers while maintaining the integrity, safety, and quality infrastructure of the child care center licensing process. • Cutting red tape and streamlining for government and business owner efficiency is one of my favorite things to do as a legislator. On March 20, HB 13-1223 passed the Senate Health and Human Services Committee. This bill helps small health insurance companies and Division of Insurance staff by modifying reporting requirements. • SB 13-163 has passed through both chambers, and is now on its way to the Governor for signing. This continues the Colorado Infant Hearing Advisory Committee (CIHAC). The CIHAC makes recommendations on guidelines for newborn hearing screening and best practices for hospitals, audiologists, early interventionists, and physicians. Our Colorado advisory committee has received national attention for its innovation and effectiveness in identifying close to 100 newborns with hearing loss every year. Finding and treating this condition early helps the child, the parents, and the taxpayers. • I’m really excited about my HB 131147 that passed through the Senate State, Veterans, and Military Affairs Committee on March 20. This bill gives college students an opportunity to register to vote at the time of course enrollment. I am proud to encourage young adults to start a lifely long habit of participating in civic engageeven ment by being registered voters! • On March 21, HB 13-1060 passed ura ur ew ng a at I Don’t rush into buying Easter pet rdly Many young children beg for a furry bunny of their own at Easter after seeing in all of the cute rabbits on TV. Unfortunately ew many people do not realize how much work goes into caring for a rabbit, duck or chicken. e Rabbits can live eight to 12 years. They do not make a good match for young children because they are very mellow. A child ss” will of course want to hold their new pet, eally but rabbits become stressed when held and may try to get away which could result on in an injury to the rabbit. Rabbits cancom not live outside in a hutch. The Colorado mo- weather is not conducive, they are very ng a isolating, and there are many predators. If you do keep a rabbit inside, the whole house needs to be rabbit-proofed. nds g der

through the Senate Local Government Committee. I’m enjoying working with Mayor Tisdale of Cherry Hills, Mayor Rakowsky of Greenwood Village, and the Colorado Municipal League on their one bill they’re proposing this year. Maximum municipal court fines have not been increased in 21 years. So, in order to keep up with current economies and growing lawlessness of “bad actors,” this bill allows a municipal judge to fine a person or entity up to $2,650 when convicted of violating a municipal ordinance. Another example of bipartisan efforts to solve challenges! • HB 13-1104 regulates mental health professionals, repeals the requirement that these professionals orally disclose their credentials, maintains written disclosure, and modifies the peer health assistance program for the practitioners. HB-1104 is also on its way to the Governor to sign. For more details about the state legislative session or my work, please sign up for my email newsletter updates via Linda. newell.senate@gmail.com or 303-8664846. You’re also welcome to join me at the Capitol to see the action “up close and personal” for a short time or all day. Just let us know your timing, and we’ll be ready for you. Session ends mid-May.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Every year after Easter hundreds of unwanted rabbits are taken to shelters or dumped in the wild. If you do this after your child fails at taking care of their rabbit, you are showing them that it is OK to dump your responsibilities on someone else. Speaking as a bunny mommy myself, rabbits are wonderful companions if you live in a calm house that has been rabbitproofed. They deserve just as much care as a dog. Please do not buy baby rabbits from stores when there are thousands of animals in shelters that need your love. If you are interested in adopting a rabbit you can visit the Colorado House Rabbit Society at www.coloradohrs.com. Lauren Winn-Dalmer Centennial

Pioneering parachutist lauded Legendary jumper Hall honored with benefit for son By Deborah Grigsby
dgrigsby@ourcolorado news.com At 86, retired Air Force Brig. Gen. James “Jim” Hall may not be suiting up for another free-fall jump, but many of the technical improvements he engineered decades ago still are. A master parachutist
with more than 1,800 jumps, Hall became a legend in the field of parachuting, including helping launch the Air Force Academy’s premier parachute program. Hall, accompanied by his family, was toasted at a March 24 reception at the Glenmoor Country Club in Cherry Hills Village. Lauded by the likes of former Colorado Gov. Bill Owens, U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman and former U.S. Rep. Bob Beauprez, more than 150 guests attended the Irish-themed event that also served as a benefit for his special-needs son, Eagle
Rep. Mike Coffman, left, assists Brig. Gen. James “Jim” Hall as the crowd stands to sing “God Bless America” along with former Colorado Gov. Bill Owens in the background. Hall was honored for his contributions to the aviation and parachuting community during a reception held March 24 at the Glenmoor Country Club in Cherry Hills Village. Photos by Deborah Grigsby
‘I just want to thank each of you for being here and each of you for being my friends.’ Retired Air Force Brig. Gen. James ‘Jim’ Hall Hall, who hopes to continue to participate in the Special Olympics James Hall, who is a graduate of the both the Army Parachute School and the U.S. Forest Service Smoke Jumper School, is credited with creating the “buddy system” for free fall and the “4-line cut” for parachuting emergencies. In 1959, Hall and a partner founded the first professional parachuting firm ever. “Almost every parachute development done for the U.S. Air Force Academy in the first 30 years came from Gen. Hall,” said retired Lt. Col. John Buckley, a former combat pilot. “Brig. Gen. Hall’s developments saved lives.”
Retired Brig. Gen James “Jim” Hall autographs copies of his book “Parachuting for Gold in Old Mexico” after a reception in his honor at the Glenmoor Country Club in on March 24. Hall, 86, has been credited with more than 1,800 parachute jumps over 60 years. He also is responsible for many technical innovations in parachuting that have saved the lives of many pilots and airmen. Photos by Deborah Grigsby Hall’s life accomplishments are the stuff from which legends are made. From conversations with Fidel Castro and Che Guevera, to Hollywood stuntmen, Hall’s accomplishments are the stuff from which legends are born. In 1965, Hall suited up to conduct the first zero-zero ejection seat test for the F-106. The test was known as
Project 90, and zero-zero refers to the fact Hall was propelled more than 400 feet in the air from an aircraft cockpit at zero feet in altitude and zero knots velocity. Hall often jokes about the event, saying he has been “kicked in the a-harder than that.” Irish tenor Anthony Kearns performed a short repertoire of traditional Irish
ditties, much to Hall’s delight. “Wow, I didn’t know I had this many friends,” said a humbled Hall. “I just want to thank each of you for being here and each of you for being my friend.” Hall retired in 1981 from the Colorado Air National Guard and was later inducted into the Colorado Aviation Hall of Fame.

REAL ESTATE AGENT SPOTLIGHT OF THE WEEK What do you most enjoy doing when you’re not working? Matt Kuchar, GRI, CDPE, FIS How long have you worked in Real Estate? I started selling Manufactured Homes to retirees in I enjoy fixing up and improving my house. Sounds weird Realtor®
303-710-3810 matt@calldenverhome.com www.CallDenverHome.com Where were you born? I was born in Saginaw, Michigan How long have you lived in the area? My family and I moved to Colorado from Ft. Myers Florida in June of 2006 What do you like most about it? I love the laid back attitude of the people in Colorado. The mountains are fantastic and weather constantly changes. However, the way people here take the time to enjoy life and spend time outdoors and with one another is a source of constant encouragement.
Orlando Florida back in 1990. In 2000, I began my real estate career at Century 21 in Fort Myers until I opened my own brokerage in 2002.
What is your specialty and what does that mean for the people you work with? I specialize in listing and selling residential homes and condominiums. A specific skill set is needed to assist seller in preparing their homes for sale and presenting them in a way that maximizes their return. What is the most challenging part of what you do? The most challenging part of real estate comes when dealing with multiple offer scenarios from both the selling and buying side of a transaction. There may be many that want the property but only one person is going to get it. The other interested parties are going to be disappointed.
Dig it!
but I get a lot of satisfaction from that.
What is one tip you have for someone looking to sell a house? Hire an agent that is familiar with the area that you live in and has a good success rate in that area – listen to their advice. What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy a house? Get all of your financial matters in order with the mortgage company prior to looking at homes. What is the most unusual thing you’ve encountered while working in Real Estate? Most recently, I showed a home with a room in the basement that had several locks on the door and fluorescent lights coming from underneath the door. I don’t think they were preparing tomatoes for spring planting.

The ‘ins and outs’ of home warranties
B
uying a home is arguably one of the largest purchases a person will make. It can also be one of the most stressful. Individuals take quite a financial leap when buying a home. Even after careful consideration of funds and budgeting, it’s easy to become overextended. A home warranty can take some of the bite out of unexpected expenses. Although home buyers are urged to hire an inspector and check a property and structure from top to bottom before signing on the dotted line, a home inspector cannot foresee everything that may crop up after a person moves into a home. “When my home inspector reviewed the property he found only minor things that needed attention,” says Jeannine in New Jersey. “After Imoved in, we shortly learned that the crawl space had flooding issues that would require a lot of money to fix properly.” Home warranties can be a smart investment that take some of the financial pressure off of new
homeowners. They can also be negotiated into the sale terms of the home so that the seller is responsible for providing the warranty to the new buyer. Home warranties do not negate the need for homeowner’s insurance, but they can add protection against large monetary pay-outs to repair many items around the house. Policies may differ as to specific coverage, but most home warranties will cover major systems of the home, such as heating/ cooling, plumbing, electrical, as well as certain appliances. To decide if a warranty is the right investment, home buyers should consider the following: * Home warranties are only as good as the company backing them. Careful investigation into the trustworthiness of the warranty company and its track record should be completed. * Read the fine print of the warranty. Learn what exclusions exist, which may not make the warranty practical. * Keep in mind that the warranty company reserves the right
to determine if a repair or replacement is adequate in a claim situation. * In general, warranty companies work with their own set of contractors. This means a homeowner may not be able to hire his or her own preferred contractors to do work. * There may be a deductible or a fee charged prior to having a technician assess a repair situation. * The warranty company may require inspection of the house to be sure items are in good working order before offering a plan. * If a warranty is offered through a home seller, there may be no negotiation on the coverage or company used. Home buyers should keep in mind that there are many unforseen expenses that can arise when purchasing a new home. Having some additional protection, such as a home warranty, could mean saving money on outof-pocket repairs. ■ Metro Creative Services

Celtic tavern is best bet
Nelly Levine’s Streptocarpus Heartland’s White Gold racked up several awards, placing it prominently in the winner’s circle at this year’s Rocky Mountain African Violet Show and Sale. The two-day event was held March 16 and 17 at Tagawa Gardens in Arapahoe County.

With its traditional blue frilled petals, Rachel McKitrick’s Blue Dragon was a first-place winner at this year’s Rocky Mountain African Violet Show and Sale at Tagawa Gardens. Hundreds of entries from across the region were judged during the two-day event that attracted a steady stream of violet enthusiasts.
The Rocky Mountain African Violet Show and Sale was in full bloom March 16 and 17 at Tagawa Gardens in Arapahoe County. Hundreds of entries from across the region were on display, competing for top honors. Entries were judged by color, species, size and artistic interpretation. Introduced to the United States by a New York florist in 1894, African violets have earned a reputable position in American homes, with wholesale sales in 2003 exceeding $20 million. The two-day show attracted a steady stream of enthusiasts and is hosted by the Rocky Mountain African Violet Council, a nonprofit organization based in Denver that is dedicated to African violets and other gesneriads.
Miniature landscapes give some African violets a new sense of perspective, making them appear much larger to the eye than they actually are. This exhibit, created by Ruthann Buckhalter, was one of several container garden entries at this year’s Rocky Mountain African Violet Show and Sale.
The Celtic Tavern at 1801 Blake St. is in its 13th year of doing business and is ready to branch out by providing Denver’s only Off Track Betting facility. “We have changed as the business grew,” said owner Noel Hickey, “by expanding in 2004 into the space next door, opening Delaney’s cigar bar and lounge. We are now ready for the next change. On April 6, we will open the only Off Track Betting facility in the City and County of Denver. “It will add excitement in both bars. We will open at 10 a.m. every day. On May 4, Kentucky Derby day, we will be hosting one of the biggest Derby day parties seen in Colorado. With the help of our friends at the Ninth Door and Vesta Dipping Grill, the Blake Street trifecta will be the place to be.”
One Lincoln Park problems
The One Lincoln Park building that Dealin’ Doug Moreland and Tom “Lou from Littleton” Manoogian co-own is having problems again. Apparently they are replacing ALL the water pipes with copper pipes. Water is being shut off intermittently. The water issue has affected the White Crown Credit Union (yes, my credit union) this week and this will be an ongoing project for a year.
Microbrews help end poverty
Join Whole Foods Market Denver and Rocky Mountain Micro Finance Institute for a party to help end poverty around the world from 6 to 10 p.m. Saturday at the McNichols Civic Center Building at the corner of Bannock and Colfax. Taste some of Colorado’s best microbrews and spirits, including a custom limited edition of Pineapple Pale Ale from Denver Beer Co., as well as samples from other micro breweries such as Odell Brewing Co., Crazy Mountain Brewery and Downslope Distilling. Sample food from some of Whole Foods Market food artisans, and create your own party favor with folks from Fresh City Life and the Denver Public Library. Enjoy live music and view an art installation of “India” by Amy K. Wright. All proceeds will benefit the Whole Planet Foundation. Learn more at www. wholeplanetfoundation.org. Buy five tickets or more and enter to win a $100 gift card to Whole Foods Market.
Kempe takes Venice Rows of exotic African violets fill a greenhouse at Tagawa Gardens during the Rocky Mountain African Violet Show and Sale. Entries were judged by color, species, size and even artistic interpretation.
Sporting a large and exotic spotted bloom, Linda Weber’s Streptocarpus Hototogisu was a favorite at this year’s Rocky Mountain African Violet Show and Sale.
Now that’s Italian! Guests will celebrate in Venetian style to support abused and neglected children during the “Kempe Takes Venice” gala beginning at 6 p.m. April 20 in the Seawell Grand Ballroom at The Denver Center for the Performing Arts. Proceeds from the event will benefit The Kempe Foundation, which provides the education, advocacy and fundraising support for The Kempe Center for the Prevention and Treatment of Child Abuse and Neglect. The evening will begin with a cocktail reception and silent auction at 6 p.m., followed by a 7:30 p.m. Italian-style dinner. The program will include a tribute to Dr. C. Henry Kempe’s lasting legacy, a success story as told by child-abuse survivor Althea Austin Flaherty, an artistic performance with an Italian flair, the comedy of local favorite (and my former Rocky Mountain News colleague) Sam Adams, and a live Parker continues on Page 23

Singing leads to better life African Children’s Choir performing at Littleton church
IF YOU GO The African Children’s Choir will perform at 7 p.m. April 10 at South Suburban Christian Church, 7275 S. Broadway, Littleton. Tickets: free will offering. 303-798-2406. Education is viewed as the key to a better future for these vulnerable children. The first North American tour was in 2002. At times, there are two choirs traveling —in England and the U.S. They have produced albums, appeared on TV, performed in London in 2005 with Mariah Carey and Paul McCartney, sung before presidents, including at the White House, and recently sang for Queen Elizabeth of England. There will be a table with albums and other material at the church, Cutler said. Ticket sales are by donation and support education for choir children and thousands of others. The website speaks of 7,000 being supported at present and over 50,000 during the choir’s history. Cutler said there will also be the opportunity to sponsor a particular child. The choir’s mission “is to create ChangeMakers for the future of Africa.” At present,
By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com In 1984, a man named Roy Burnett offered a little Ugandan boy a ride to the next village and was enchanted by his singing. Burnett formed the first African Children’s Choir and took the children on tour to raise money for the many needy African children he saw. Through the years, funds raised have helped with education, housing, medical expenses and more, through the Music for Life Institute. The African Children’s Choir is traveling in Colorado and will appear at 7 p.m. April 10 at South Suburban Christian Church in Littleton. Mark Cutler, minister of music, said this will be the third visit from the choir in about 15 years.

Tamayo adds bottomless brunch
Tamayo, the 12-year-old Larimer Square high-end Mexican spot that recently went through a major renovation, has upped the ante on brunch. Some gal pals and I got invited to a friends and family tire-kicking try-out of brunch on Sunday, which featured a $35 all-you-can-eat and drink “bottomless Margarita bunch” for $35. But the “drink” part isn’t limited to Margaritas. Mimosas made with traditional orange juice, guave, mango or blood orange, as well as Bloody Marys and Bloody Marias are included. And, if you’re a teetotaler, the price drops to $20; $10 for children 12 and under. The menu includes sopas y ensaladas, antojitos (starters), tacos and tortas and cazuelas (baked eggs).
Glass Half Full, the stand-alone bar inside Alamo Drafthouse Littleton, unveiled its cocktail menu available to moviegoers when the theater and bar opened this week. The bar pours locally distilled spirits from companies such as Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey and Leopold Bros., as well as a seasonal cocktail menu curated by award-winning Alamo Drafthouse Beverage Director Bill Norris. “With the signature drinks at Glass Half Full, we’re trying to bridge the gap between the beer drinker and the cocktail drinker,” said Norris. “Local beer like Left Hand Milk Stout finds its way into cocktails, and beer components like hops and malt find their way into classic drinks like daiquiris and gimlets. Craft brewers spend so much time creating flavor in their brews that we just want to build on the templates they’re laying down for us.” More information at http://drafthouse. com/denver/littleton.

Littleton girls aim high in soccer Lions off to good start for season By Craig Harper
sports@ourcoloradonews.com As the second-smallest school in the Continental League, Littleton has a built-in disadvantage. And it didn’t help in the larger scheme when the school was bumped up from Class 4A to 5A. The Lions’ girls soccer team is a good example that school size matters. Longtime coach Terry Banfield produced back-toback 4A semifinalists, but Littleton hasn’t advanced to the playoffs since 2006. Still, Banfield believes his teams have acquitted themselves well in the Continental League, and this might be the year the Lions get back to the 5A postseason. The Lions shut out their first four opponents before bowing 1-0 to Highlands Ranch in the league opener. The March 22 match with
Regis Jesuit was snowed out and, off this week for spring break, the Lions won’t play again until April 2. “This is our best team since 2006,’’ Banfield said. “I think we’ve done very well (in 5A). We’re often in the middle of the pack (in the Continental League) and a lot of times we play above ourselves. I think when teams play us, they’ll know they’ve been in a game. “We haven’t qualified for the playoffs for a while. But if we can get a little run, I think we’ve got a chance.’’ Banfield isn’t surprised by his team’s good start. The Lions return nine starters, six of them seniors, from a team that went 7-8 overall and 4-7 in the Continental League. The highlight was “a big win’’ over Dakota Ridge, 3-0 in the season opener. The Eagles, he noted, “have been one of the top teams in the Jeffco’’ and were the 2011 state runners-up, though they have struggled since then. In the loss to Highlands Ranch, Littleton played without No. 1 goalkeeper Shayna
Watkins, a sophomore who won the job from junior Natalie Scheunert after the two shared duties in front of the net in 2012. The Falcons outshot the Lions 9-8. The returning seniors include all-leaguers Lindsey Payson and Lanie Sumlin. Payson, a midfielder who had eight goals and four assists last year, is 3-3 for a team-leading nine points. Sumlin, a midfielder/forward, has struggled a bit scoring, with one goal in five games after going 8-4 in 2012. Sophomore Laura Puchino, who had three goals last year, has four in 2013, and senior Rachel Ericson has three goals and two assists. Watkins has 15 saves in her four shutouts. “We’ve moved Lindsey up a little more so she’s closer to the goal,’’ Banfield said of Payson, a midfielder. “(Ericson) is a good kid who works so hard. She’s a tremendous role model for the younger players.’’ Banfield has also made a similar adjustment for Puchino, the leading scorer on the basketball team. “We’re trying to get the ball
to her and she’s been finishing,’’ he said. Banfield has also been pleased with the play of midfielder Julie Stauffer and sophomore defender/midfielder Carli Murray. Banfield is aware that following the 4-0 non-league start, the schedule doesn’t get easier with the start of Continental play. The league gets four automatic state qualifiers, and Banfield thinks the Lions might have a chance to sneak in, or perhaps nail down an at-large berth. “Mountain Vista’s going to be way above everybody,’’ Banfield said. “Rock Canyon will be up there and Chaparral is pretty decent. After that there is a group that is very similar that we’ll be battling for points. I think we’ll be in the mix.’’ Banfield is certain of one thing: His team won’t back down to anyone. “I think we have an atmosphere that you do your best no matter what,’’ Banfield said. “We don’t dwell on things. We dust if off, and here’s the next one. We have a very hard-working, athletic group that’s very focused and determined.’’
high school sports roundup Baseball
Mountain Vista baseball coach Ron Quintana schedules tough non-league games so the Golden Eagles will be primed for play in the Continental League. On March 19, the Golden Eagles upset Cherry Creek, Colorado’s top-ranked team, 5-2, in a road game on the Bruins’ diamond. Cherry Creek was fourth in the MaxPreps Excellent 25 rankings, and Mountain Vista will face Cathedral Catholic of San Diego this week when the Golden Eagles play in the Bishop Gorman Desert Classic in Las Vegas. “I like playing the best, you find out where your team sits,” Quintana said. “When you play a team like Creek, you find out what your team has and where your team stands. Playing better competition in non-league competition is a benefit, especially going into our conference. “We’re going to Vegas. The timing is perfect because there we will have nice weather and we’ll see some good compe-
tition. It gives us a week to get out with good weather instead of being indoors and shoveling.” Mountain Vista is one of nine local teams playing in a warmer climate this week during spring break. Douglas County and Castle View will be in the Greenway Festival Tournament in Phoenix while ThunderRidge, Chaparral, Highlands Ranch, Ponderosa and Valor Christian are entered in the Coach Bob National Invitational tourney in Phoenix. Heritage will be playing in Vero Beach, Fla. In other games last week, senior Jake Hand went 3-for-3, scored once and drove in three runs as ThunderRidge improved to 2-0 for the season with an 8-3 win over Fountain Fort Carson. Arapahoe (3-1) dropped a 6-2 decision to Chatfield and edged Cherokee Trail, 5-4. In four games, senior Jason Bendell has been productive despite hitting only .167. He leads the team with six runs batted in and is tied for the Warrior lead with three runs scored.
Greg Popylisen and Daniel Lund are both hitting .500 after four games for Valor Christian, which loss twice last week. Ralston Valley beat the Eagles 12-5 and Columbine notched an 11-1 victory over Valor (1-3). Lutheran is 1-1 following a 5-3 win over Colorado Academy and an 11-2 loss at Peak to Peak. The Lions have stolen eight of nine bases in the two opening games.
Boys lacrosse
Rock Canyon, 3-1 overall, is the leader in the Douglas County boys lacrosse standings with a 2-0 record. Mountain Vista and Highlands Ranch are each 1-0 in league play. Chaparral’s Colton McCaffrey is second with 13 goals while Evan Wong of Highlands Ranch, Jake Colman of Chaparral and Castle View’s Michael Madril each have a league-leading six assists. McCaffrey is the points leader with 18 while Tyler Thorn of Highlands Ranch and
Castle View’s Austin Cyrus each are credited with a 0.00 goals against average. Thorn is the saves percentage leader at 1.000.
Girls lacrosse
Regis Jesuit has taken the lead in the girls Continental League lacrosse standings with a 3-0 record with Valor Christian second at 2-1 followed by Douglas County/ Castle View and ThunderRidge with 3-2 marks. The early season goals leaders with 12 each finds sophomore Kirsten Greenlaw of ThunderRidge tied with Stacy Zuppa of Heritage/Littleton and Erin Schilmoller of Regis. Greenlaw and Rachel Howard of Douglas County/Castle View each have five assists while Greenlaw’s 17 points leads the league. Catherine Wylie of ThunderRidge and Regis’ Emma Bohn have the best goals against average of 5.76 while Wylie’s .667 saves percentage tops all league goalies.

Bruins again big time on diamond Cherry Creek team to beat in league and state By Craig Harper
sports@ourcoloradonews. com In 40 years at the helm of Cherry Creek’s storied baseball program, Marc Johnson knows it will be hard, if not impossible, to top the incredible run the Bruins had in the 1990s, a stretch that included five consecutive state championships from 1995-99 with rosters lined with future college and professional players. But the venerable Johnson isn’t sure he’s yet coached his best team, which may turn out to be the in-progress 2013 Bruins. Senior-dominated Cherry Creek lost just two regulars from last year’s 24-3 state champions (the group also finished second in 2011), regularly attracts a handful of pro scouts to its games and is ranked No. 4 in the MaxPreps Xcellent National Baseball rankings. The Bruins seem to be head and shoulders above the rest of Colorado, much less the Centennial League where the battle will be for second place. Asked if this is his best Creek team, Johnson replied, “No. But it’s potentially as good as any. Our ‘95 and ‘96 teams were loaded. This is a very, very good team, but they’d have to prove it to me. “It’s a talented team that’s worked with me for four or five years and traveled all over the country playing together. If I don’t screw ‘em up, I think we’ve got a shot.’’ The 2013 Bruins have it all, but most notably a three-deep starting-pitching rotation of Division I college prospects and an top-to-bottom offensive lineup that probably will improve on last year’s .355 batting average and 9.1 runs per game. “We have above-average speed and I think we’ll be decent defensively,’’ Johnson said. “But pitching and hitting are the two biggest denominators.’’ Johnson’s biggest challenge might be keeping his team motivated in a season that started with one blowout after another. The Bruins won their first three games 15-0, 12-2 and 12-4, the latter over defending 5A runner-up Legend. However, the Bruins got just three hits and lost 5-2 to Mountain Vista on March 21.

“The thing is to keep them focused in the sense that they have to commit to playing as hard as they can every day,’’ Johnson said. “It’s a psychological challenge, but we think we can handle it.’’ It shouldn’t be a problem, two key Bruins insist. “We were a young team last year and we’re an old team this year,’’ said pitcher/infielder Derik Beauprez. “We all kind of know the drill.’’ Added pitcher/infielder Griffin Jax, “We’ve got a target on our backs and we know everyone wants to come out with their best against us. That’s what we want.’’ Beauprez and Jax join Dimitri Casas to form the pitching rotation. And though some consider the 6-foot-5, 215-pound Beaurprez, a University of Miami
Madison McIntosh, Cherokee Trail, Sr., INF Lane Milligan, Cherry Creek, Sr., C/OF Dyllin Mucha, Cherry Creek, Sr., OF Ted Ramirez, Arapahoe, Jr., SS Matt Rindal, Cherry Creek, Jr., INF Jake Thurston, Grandview, Sr., INF Dario Villagomez, Overland, Jr., P
signee, the cream of the oh-so-talented trio, Johnson plans on maintaining a regular rotation “much like a pro team.’’ Beauprez (3-1, 2.62 earned run average in 2012) and Jax (4-0, 2.15) were allColorado selections by the Denver Post last year and Casas (6-0, 0.68) was Class 5A honorable mention. “They’re all big kids who are very legit,’’ Johnson said. Beauprez and Jax also play infield and contribute offensively. Jax hit .404 with six home runs and 38 runs batted in, both team highs, and Beauprez batted .349 with five homers and 25 RBIs. Beauprez can play first base and shortstop. Jax played primarily third base when not pitching last year but might see more time at first base. Outfielder Dyllin Mu-
cha (.467, 14 RBIs), catcher Lane Mulligan (a University of New Mexico signee) and junior infielder Matt Rindal alslo hit .400 or better in 2012. Mucha also was allColorado. The Bruins lost two seniors of note, third baseman Andy Heider (.309) and shortstop Cody Jenkins (.333). Rindel and Jax will combine at third base and Beauprez and junior Jack Hallmark at shortstop, and Johnson doesn’t foresee a drop-off defensively.
Warriors in the mix
This could be the year Arapahoe makes its move back to near the top of the Centennial League after going 7-7 and tying Cherokee Trail for fourth place behind Grandview (12-2, one game behind Creek) and Mullen (9-5). The Warriors return just one starter but word apparently has spread that this is a team ready to make a move. Arapahoe was 11th in the Denver Post’s Class 5A preseason poll, then moved up to No. 8 last week after beating preseason No. 2 Regis Jesuit 8-5. The Warriors added a 14-3 win over No. 9 Highlands Ranch, bowed to Chatfield 6-2 on March
20 and opened Centennial League play with a 5-4 win over Cherokee Trail the next day. Arapahoe has only qualified once for the state playoffs since joining the Centennial League in 2009. “We’ve had good teams, but the league is so deep in baseball,’’ said coach Luke Muller. “Fifty percent of the teams get in and there are 6-7 good teams in the league.’’ Muller thinks going to a wild-card playoff-selection system should boost Arapahoe’s chances. Not to mention he believes this is one of the better teams he’s had recently, particularly in the pitching department. “I knew our pitching was going to be 100 times better,’’ Muller said. “We’ve got a lot of depth, which is something we haven’t really had in previous seasons. We have eight quality pitchers and finally have some power arms. We’ve had decent pitching but not a lot of strikeout pitchers.’’ Left-hander Jake Krantz and junior Corey Nevers head the pitching staff, followed by Zach Chandler. The depth was evident against Cherokee Trail when junior Ryan Kearney
pitched 4 1/3 innings of shutout relief to notch the win. The lone returee is one of the league’s best, junior shortstop Ted Ramirez, whom Muller said “is probably our best hitter.’’ Ramirez was a first-team all-league selection in 2012 when he hit .397 with three home runs and 25 RBIs. Based on early games, junior designated hitter Justin Lindell, third baseman Garrett Nikkel and outfielders Nick Chism and Gerry Goldy (2-for-4, two RBIs and two runs scored against Cherokee Trail) will provide the most offensive support. “We don’t have a lot of power guys,’’ Muller said. “I think we have good situational hitters, and with this being the second year of the new bats, chances are you’re not going to hit a lot of home runs anyway. This is going to be a fun offense to coach.’’ Muller sees a tight race for second place in the Centennial and said he wouldn’t be shocked if his Warriors end up there. “Our kids coming in are good players,’’ he said. “And I have the pitching that, if they’re on, they’ll beat some teams.’’
