Braving the winter on Pikes Peak
Barr Camp caretakers required to be well prepared
By Kaitlyn Pratt
Contributing writer
The hike to the top of Pikes Peak is a feat to begin with, but winter weather turns it into a whole new beast. For the Barr Camp caretakers who live at the midway point year round, these challenges are just a part of the daily norm. Barr Camp is a 6.5 mile hike up the Barr Trail, at a 10,200 foot elevation. Renee Labor and Anthony Duricy have been the caretakers since Sept. 2013. “It is not for the faint of heart.” Renee Labor said. Hosting at the Barr Camp requires being well prepared. While most hikers tackle the climb in the summer months, there are still a few hardy hikers that venture the journey to Pikes Peak’s summit in the dead of winter. Labor and Duricy are both a part of the El Paso Search and Rescue team, which means that they are the first responders if anyone is in trouble two miles above or below the camp. The biggest dangers in hiking a 14er in the winter are hypothermia and frostbite. Most of these problems come from a lack of preparation. “People think that it can be an easy day hike, but it is the hike with the longest mileage and the greatest elevation gain of any of the 14ers,” Renee Labor said, then added as
a bit of advice, “definitely check the weather before coming and know that the weather can change drastically between the trailhead and the summit.” There a several ways in which an emergency on the trail can be dealt with. If the hiker can still walk, they are often taken to the Cog Railway’s Mountain View stop, which is about a mile away from Barr Camp. If not, then a search and rescue team is called in. Labor and Duricy have not had to send anybody out in a flight for life helicopter yet, but there are two landing zones close to the camp, in case of such an eventuality. Luckily, most hikers who dare to tackle it in the winter are more experienced, and come well prepared with the right gear. While the hike can be done in one day in the summer, hikers almost always break it up and stay a night at Barr Camp in the winter. The camp often reaches its max of 45 guests in the summer, but Labor and Duricy still host overnight visitors three or four times a week this time of year. Hosting hikers on Pikes Peak requires other preparations as well. Motorized vehicles are not allowed on the Barr Trail, which means that it is a six and a half mile hike any time the caretakers need to make a trip back into civilization. Supplies are brought to the Mountain View stop by the Cog railway, for Labor and Duricy to take back to camp. The camp is made up of two cabins with hostel-like lodging and a campground. The

Photos courtesy of Renee Labor and Anthony Duricy main cabin has a wood burning stove, but temperatures are usually in the 30’s at night after the fire dies out, so hikers are advised to bring warm sleeping bags. Water is piped to the cabin from a nearby creek through a gravity flow system, but in the winter the system is emptied to prevent freezing, so
water has to be hauled in from the creek by the bucket load daily. While winter on Pikes Peak can bring in its fair share of deep snow and fierce weather, Renee Labor said that the trail is almost always hike-able to the camp for those who want a winter adventure.

When Woodland Park citizens were asked to show where the city’s worst traffic is located, their answer usually depends on where they live and which highway they most often travel, U.S. 24 or Colo. 67. This questions and others were asked at a March 18 public meeting at the Ute Pass Cultural Center launching the Woodland Park Traffic Circulation Study, which is sponsored and funded by the Colorado Department of Transportation, the Federal Highway Administration and the city. City consultant Ed Hocker of AECom (formerly USB) led the discussion with help from Lisa Bachman and Monica Ramey of Bachman PR and city Public Works Director William Alspach. After an introduction that covered goals, the history of Woodland Park’s road development, constraints and solutions types, the nearly 100 participants seated at 10 tables worked together to answer four questions. Q. Please list three to five general traffic issues that your group thinks negatively impact Woodland Park. A. Answers varied but almost every table mentioned speed and the high volume of traffic on U.S. 24 and too many drivers trying to avoid highway traffic by taking side streets. Downtown sidewalks are too narrow and too close to traffic, streets and sidewalks are not aligned. Businesses are difficult to access. Q. Where are the top three traffic choke points? Number them in order. What are the main contributors to the problem at each site? A. Nearly everyone agreed that the Paradise Circle/Aspen Garden Way/U.S. 24 intersection is the worst chokepoint in the city because of misaligned signals, blind spots caused by the intersection’s grade, speed. Almost every intersection on either highway was listed by one table or another because of traffic congestion

Photo by Norma Engelberg when parents are picking up school children and people are traveling to and from work. Q. If you had to pick two alternative routes to provide better mobility within and through Woodland Park, where would you place them? Why? A. Some tables suggested Baldwin at U.S. 24 to either Lake Avenue or Kelley’s Road to Colo. 67. Others suggested Chester Avenue, Henrietta Avenue and County Roads to the south of the city from Trout Creek to Crystola. One table said there are no safe alternative routes and one group said any route that didn’t add traffic to their residential street was OK with them. Q. How would you provide better access to businesses along U.S. 24 downtown without putting more cars on the highway? A. Almost everyone suggested synchronizing traffic signals and improving signage to parking lots but some also suggested removing sign clutter. One common answer was to remove
the medians on U.S. 24 through the downtown. One table suggested focusing local traffic on a business loop that included Henrietta to the north of downtown and Saddle Club Way to the south. One suggested reviving the city’s bypass plans and another suggested constructing an elevated highway over the city. Hocker said the city needs a long list of possible solutions because it will need projects to fit whatever funding becomes available. Some solutions would be easy and relatively cheap, Alspach said later, including improving signage and traffic signals. Others would likely be completely out of reach, such as removing the medians that cost the city and CDOT millions of dollars to install and the construction of an elevated highway or a major bypass. All of the answers and other information gathered over the next several months will be compiled and posted on the city website, citywoodlandpark.org.

Caregiver sentenced Medicaid fraud, theft results in 3 years probation, restitution By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com Convicted in January of three counts of theft and 133 counts of forgery of Medicaid fraud, Donna Everly, 61, was sentenced March 17 to three years of probation and ordered to pay $16,500 in restitution. Judge Michael McHenry granted the defense 14 days to file a motion to set aside the $9,000 in prosecutorial costs. Along with the felony conviction, Everly has lost her nursing license, at least temporarily, and is no longer eligible to receive Medicaid funds. Everly was charged and tried by the state attorney general’s office and sentenced in the 4th Judicial District Court. Everly, who owns a medical home in Green Mountain Falls, cares for severelydisabled children, some of who could have died without her intervention. She adopted five children and is the foster mother of one, Stephen, 15. If Everly were to lose her ability to care for the children, each would be hospitalized permanently at a cost of $10,000 a day to the state, said a nurse familiar with the Colorado system of caring for children with severe special needs. Throughout the hearing, several professionals, neighbors and a volunteer with Court Appointed Special Advocate emphasized Everly’s love for the children, who are thriving in spite of their disabilities. Everly’s charges stem from the homecare slips she signed for Phil Hyland, a war veteran who worked in the home and who she was dating during the years she was charged with Medicaid fraud, 2008-2010. “Mr. Hyland was cashing the checks and receiving the benefit of close to half of what bills she submitted,” said Everly’s attorney, Brian Boal. “He didn’t receive any
‘I’ve been watching this case from day one with a little bit of intrigue and fascination.’ — Judge Michael McHenry jail and I would ask the court to look at the reality and severity of what she did. What’s very important here is what Ms. Everly has suffered already as a result of all this.” Hyland received a deferred sentence as a trade for testifying against Everly. Boal stated that in 2011, state investigators searched Everly’s home and seized the children’s medical records. “During the investigation period, Everly continued to cooperate, continued to take care of her kids without the benefit of Medicaid, with very little help,” Boal said. “Not to minimize the mistakes she’d made, but in sentencing Ms. Everly, it’s important that the court see the person as a whole, not just her actions. This is a very good person; I would ask the court to look at this as a first offense.” Everly addressed the judge. “I am sorry for what I did and in hindsight I realize I could have made better decisions during that time of ‘using it or losing it’ in the care of my children and the way Medicaid was billed,” she said. “For this I’m truly sorry and I realize I should not have submitted those (Medicaid) slips because I misrepresented what was really going on.”
THE SENTENCING
Judge McHenry spoke for about 10 minutes before handing down the sentence. “It
Two years ago when Daniel Bohl-Everly was 9, he was chosen as one of seven Children’s Hospital Colorado Ambassadors. Bohl-Everly was a do-not-resuscitate baby and not expected to survive. Today, in the care of his mother, Donna Everly, the boy is thriving and wears a smile most of the time. File photo by Pat Hill is OK for all of us to have opinions about laws and whether we think they’re OK or not,” he said. Responding to a statement made by the prosecuting attorney, Richard Ferro, that he represented the people, McHenry said, “Don’t think for a moment that the defense doesn’t represent the fine people of Colorado.” McHenry continued, “In deciding these types of cases, there are a number of things a judge looks at, including how much harm was done to society and the rehabilitative potential of the convicted. As well, the judge looks at deterrents to future conduct. The defense makes an argument about whether it is appropriate for all the draconian consequences to come down on Ms. Everly. It sounds to me, based upon all the evidence I’ve heard, that Ms. Everly is a major fundamental asset for the community. There are very few people who can
even do the kind of work she does. I have no doubt that everyone who is involved applauds and praises people who do that work. And almost everyone who is involved in governmental agencies understands that these types of agencies don’t have enough funding to do the good work we’d like them to do. There is more misery and heartache in the world that our good intentions can’t address, so thank God for people like Ms. Everly. I don’t claim to know any more than what has been presented here in court but I’ve heard nothing but good things about the wonderful job she’s done with the medically-fragile children in her care. Everything I do in court involves a lot of heartache and bad new, so when I hear stories of children whom nobody else wants,

who have been nursed back to health and live happy lives, I honestly admit to you that I wonder about the prosecutorial discretion that was exercised in this case and whether Colorado has ultimately been helped or ultimately been harmed by Ms. Everly’s prosecution.” McHenry balked at Ferro’s suggestion of a one-year prison sentence for Everly. “I’ve been watching this case from day one with a little bit of intrigue and fascination because, as Mr. Boal has intimated in the grand scheme of things — the cases I deal with in a criminal courtroom run the gamut from murder to kidnapping to child molestation,” he said.
THE LECTURE
“But I also know that when Ms. Everly’s kids get old enough to know right from wrong and what good behavior is, I have no doubt she would never coach them to break the rules just because it’s for the greater good,” McHenry said. Everly shook her head in affirmation.
THE VERDICT
As Everly and her attorney listened, betraying no emotions, McHenry offered a hint of what was to come. “Am I going to put her in jail? That is the furthest thing from my mind. I am inclined to think that what I hear from the defense is very much true, that we’re underfunded out there,” he said. “I think what happened out there is human nature, the type of things we see in our own families; people frequently cut

corners when they feel they’re entitled. Ms. Everly has been working her hands to the bone for years doing the right thing, caring about these kids.” As Ferro had charged Everly with exploitation of the children, McHenry took a different view. “I personally think the community is better off if she is allowed to continue the work she’s doing,” he said. “I happen to agree with the defense that $16,500 is small potatoes compared to the amount of work she does, with the good mothering and good care. With one trip to the hospital, where a kid is there for three days, you’ve exceeded that $16,500.” Embraced by the people who gave witness to her work with children, Everly left the courtroom in tears and a smile.
THE LAWYER’S COMMENTS The next day, Everly’s lawyer confirmed that she is no longer eligible to receive Medicaid funds but the children will continue to do so. As far as Stephen is concerned, Everly’s bid to keep him in her home has received strong support in the community, he said. “My client continues to be a voice for the children and to create awareness of the need to advocate for them,” Boal said. The case against Everly began when three nurses, Ann Davidson, Marietta Losasso and Livia Dubrowski, reported the Medicaid fraud to the Department of Regulatory Agencies, Boal said. At least one worked at the medical home in Green Mountain Falls. From there, the state prosecuted the case in January. “We have been suspicious about why the case was pursued so aggressively for a theft of $16,500,” Boal said. “It’s very unusual.”

Mella appointed to WP Council New commissioner now needed on WP Planning Commission By Norma Engelberg
Contributing writer
Woodland Park Councilmember Gary Brovetto resigned last month and the Woodland Park City Council appointed a new councilmember to fill in the gap within 30 days required by city charter. Unlike last year’s mayoral appointment, there were no ties votes. This time the vote was unanimous. At its March 19 meeting, council went for experience over passion and exuberance when it appointed former Councilmember and Planning Commissioner Phil Mella to finish the remaining 13 months Brovetto’s term. Other applicants were Patricia Sinclair, who owns the Clothes Closet, and local singer, artist and art instructor Robin Pasley. Each applicant was interviewed publically while the other candidates were sequestered. After opening statements, councilmembers asked questions and then accepted public comment. All three applicants supported controlled growth and keeping recreational marijuana sales and manufacturing out of Woodland Park.
Mella’s interview:
Mella said that if appointed he would fodcus on: His fiduciary responsibility, being mindful of the city’s finances. Ensuring continued economic and private sector growth by working with the Downtown Development Authority to streamline permitting processes. Supporting the Main Street Program and na Creative Arts district. o Creating workforce and senior housing and improving the spectrum of housing navailable to meet the needs of local citizens. He also gave tentative support to amending the city charter to allow the city to offer incentives to new businesses and the construction of lower-cost housing.
Sinclair’s interview:
Sinclair said she sees a part of the city’s life that many others don’t see: the extreme-

Photo by Norma Engelberg ly poor people who seek free clothing at the Clothes Closet. She said Woodland Park needs: A shelter for women and children. Income-based housing. Job and life training programs to teach people work skills, keeping house and sticking to a budget. “I can help people one at a time in small ways but you as a council can handle the big-picture items,” she said.
Pasley’s interview:
Pasley said she can offer a new approach and a fresh face to council and that her leadership skills are a gift that she can use
to find the best in people and get things done. Her priorities include: To continue making the city more attractive to businesses and developers. Making the city more child and familyfriendly and improving the culture so that students won’t be “tempted and taunted” by things that will adversely affect their futures. Moving heavy traffic out of downtown to make it safer for pedestrians.
Final deliberations:
Mayor Neil Levy asked candidates to remain interested in public service even
if they are not appointed to council at this time. Councilmembers echoed his sentiments, with Councilmember Bob Carlsen encouraging each to stand for the municipal elections in 2016. Councilmembers said in essence that while all the candidates were great, Mella’s experience would allow him to make the best use of the last 13 months of Brovetto’s term. With Mella’s appointment to council, the city will immediately begin advertising for planning commission applicants.

Coalition promotes forest health
- Use h

Jessica Allison is a journalism student at the University of Missouri who recently spent a few days working at the Courier learning the ins and outs of small town journalism. - Have you seen smoke in the air on recent snowy days? With wildfire season approaching, the Coalition for the Upper South Platte has been promoting forest health on private property, including with the use of controlled pile burns. The Pikes Peak Courier spoke to Jonathan Bruno, operations director for CUSP, about what the organization is doing to prepare the Woodland Park area for warmer, dryer days.
What kinds of things does the Coalition for the Upper South Platte do?
CUSP is a 501c3 nonprofit organization, and our mission is to protect the Upper South Platte watershed. Ultimately what that means is if there’s conditions that potentially could cause negative outcomes to our watershed area, those are things we’re going to work on. We’re the lead organization working within the Waldo Fire. Since 2002 we’ve been leading restoration processes within the Hayman Fire. Recreation is also very important, we have alternative energy programs, and we deal with invasive species. We manage the pile burning on private properties, and we provide our team to the state forest service or other entities that are doing burning operations.
What impact has CUSP’s forest health efforts made thus far?
We haven’t had a fire in our area to test our treatments and nor do we want one, but over the last five years we have treated approximately 2,200 acres surrounding Woodland Park. The goal of our work is that you never see our work; you never have to realize how essential it was. Sometimes it’s thankless, but ultimately it’s about the protection of this beautiful place we live in.
What do you want people to know about the smoke they see from these controlled burns?
A Live Sculpture Worship
Experience! FEATURING
Todd Zeller leading worship
These piles being burned are done to the highest standard within the state of Colorado. The smoke is a sign that we’re taking the necessary proactive steps to reduce the potential for catastrophic wild land fire in the future. When we put fire into one of these units, it’s taken the upwards of several weeks of planning, so it’s not something that happens overnight. If there are questions or concerns, I invite people to call our office and chat with someone there about how we do things.
How do you determine where and when to do these burns?
There’s a lot of information on what areas are at highest risk for uncharacteristic wildfire. If there was this horrible wildfire, what’s’ the potential risk out there? We identify these risks, go talk to the property owner and from there, if the funding allows it, and we’ll go in and do forest management. If you cut a tree today, it wouldn’t be ready to burn for another six months. It’s important as you plan pile burning you have a good idea of what your timeline is. Within the state of Colorado there are specific requirements for when I can burn. The only days I’m allowed to burn are the days the smoke impact is going to be as limited as possible. And within our burn units, I have to have on average between four to six inches of snow.
If someone wants to have a controlled burn on their property, how could they do so?
One of the most important elements related fire protection and preparedness is ownership. I would much rather have an owner who’s aware of the risk and call us and ask if there’s any funding and ask if there are ways we can help. Fire is a really important element to land management; it’s necessary to help maintain the balance within the forest, and it’s important that people understand that the wise use of fire is really a beneficial thing for our community.
What other measures can people take to reduce fire danger on their property?
One of the first things that property owners should do is assess their risk within the first fifty feet surrounding their structure. Often times it’s not a direct contact with flame from a wildfire that starts a house fire, often times its embers. I’ve come up on houses where they use wood mulch directly adjacent to their structure. Wood is flammable, and if an ember were to get into that mulch, it could potentially cause their house to light up. The other thing is cleaning of your gutters. We see a lot of people who stack their woodpile directly against their house, and again that’s fuel for the 7 fire. If there are trees overhanging their house, they need to e assess if that risk is worth the aesthetics. It can be as simple as raking your landscaping, it can be as simple as cutting those small trees. We know we’re going to have another fire, - so a property owner needs to be aware and prepared for that.
Easter Sunday!

OPINION
March 25, 2015
&
Join us in the celebration of Teller County business progress The Courier, with help from other long-time businesses in Teller County, is planning a celebration of resilence, service and local connection. For more than 50 years now, the paper has been delivering its lively report every week here in Teller County, and in the spirit of our first Publisher, Agnes Schupp, we think that calls for more than ordinary cake and candles. That’s right, the paper is now in its 50th year. We plan to mark that accordingly in the next few months. The first edition of the paper hit the streets on July 23, 1964. “A morally bankrupt publisher, who was printing the short-lived Woodland Park paper called the Eagle, skipped town with the subscription money from local residents after 10 issues,” according to later articles in the Courier. “Manfred (Monte) and Agnes (Ag) Schupp saved the paper from scandal and early demise,” reported the Courier at the 25th anniversary of the publication. “About one month after he stole out of town, the Schupps put out their inaugural edition of 500 copies. Staff included Tom Bonifield, then owner of Woodland Pharmacy, and M.E. “Pete” Brown, who owned the Browncraft Steakhouse. He was later instrumental in establishing LangstaffBrown Medical Center.” The paper was first printed in La Junta and was taken there by bus and returned Thursday mornings for distribution.
“The driving force behind the Courier, Agnes (also a mother and free-lance writer) often used her kitchen table as the production room for the paper,” the paper reported later. “She suffered from a heart condition which was aggravated by the area’s high elevation, and during her failing health she sold half interest to Maureen Jones in the fall of 1965.” Agnes Schupp died of heart attack June 19, 1966, and Manfred and Jones sold full interest to Roy and Carol Lee Robinson Sept. 1, 1966. Publisher, editor and reporter for 12 years, Roy Robinson received many honors and awards from Colorado Press Association for the paper’s overall progress. During his tenure, the Courier was published in Cripple Creek along with Cripple Creek Times, then owned by his father, B.G. Robinson. The paper, later published by notable mainstays of Woodland Park, Gene and Carol Sperry, and others, (a complete linage will follow in coming editions as we gear up to celebrate over 50 years of serving Teller County and the Ute Pass
region). The publication has many locations over the years, finally residing in the building it is in now, since 1984. The Courier became the Pikes Peak Courier View as the Cripple Creek Gold Rush was merged with it in 2007, and recently View was dropped to reflect its longtime roots. The Gold Rush (with ancestors of the Times, Record, Citizen, and others) traced it roots all the way back to Cripple Creek Crusher, born Dec. 4, 1891, of which this year marks 124 years. To most locally, we have always been the Courier. But whether your business has been here 50 years, 100, 150, or maybe yor are a relative newcomer to the Pikes Peak area, there is always mountian of fine reasons to celebrate the beauty, diversity, and friendliness of this unique community. Oddly enough, I personally remember what it was like in community newspapers newsrooms of 50 years ago, as I grew up among the hot lead, clanging linotypes, ca-chuncking of presses and whirring machinery of the period, and fondly recall the same Colorado excitement that still exists today. Look for details of our first 50 years of history here on the flanks of Pikes Peak, and the businesses, sources, readers, advertisers, and friends who helped make it possible in coming editions. And we will offer clues on where we are going for our next 200 years.
The pageantry of baseball’s Opening Day Opening day for Major League Baseball is officially March 30, although the Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals play the first game of the season on Sunday, March 29. Opening Day for Major League Baseball is drastically different from all the other sports. You may or may not agree with me, so I will state my case. Baseball’s Opening Day signals that spring has sprung. It is time to sit back, relax and enjoy the next seven months of the diamond game. The smell of the grass; the taste of hot dogs and peanuts; the crack of the bat; the roar from the crowd; all lend to the overall experience at the ballpark. For nearly 150 years, Opening Day has arrived at ballparks and stadiums around the United States and Canada amid pageantry. In Cincinnati, home of the sport’s first professional team the Red Stockings, an annual parade marks an official “city holiday” with many folks taking the day off to cheer on their beloved Reds. For decades, the first pitch of every major league season officially took place in Cincinnati. The Reds remain the only major league team to always open the season with a home game, although in 1966 they started in Chicago after rain washed out the opening series in Cincinnati, and 1990, when due to a lockout affecting the schedule they opened the season at Houston. Fittingly, the Reds were also the first team to host an Interleague game on Opening Day when the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim traveled to Ohio in 2013 in the first year of year-round Interleague play. Here are some interesting Opening Day facts: In 1907, the New York Giants forfeited their game at the Polo Grounds to the
Philadelphia Phillies, 9-0, after rowdy fans threw snowballs at each other and on the field. Without police available to restore order, hall of fame umpire Bill Klem awarded the game to the Phillies. In 1940, Cleveland Indians pitcher Bob Feller threw a no-hitter against the Chicago White Sox to open the season. “Rapid Robert’s” gem remains the only no-hitter in Opening Day history. Twelve United States Presidents have thrown the first ball of the season. The first to do so was William Howard Taft On April 14, 1910. He attended the Senators’ home opener in Washington, D.C. Harry Truman threw first pitches with both his right and left arm at the Senators’ home opener in 1950. The great Ted Williams was a .449 hitter in openers, belting three home runs and 14 RBIs in 14 games. He also had at least one hit in each game. On April 4, 1974, “Hammerin’” Hank Aaron of the Atlanta Braves ignited the Opening Day crowd at Cincinnati’s Riverfront Stadium with his 714th career home run, tying Babe Ruth on Major League Baseball’s all-time list. Aaron finished his career with 755 home runs. On a side note, a case can be made that Ruth is the alcoholic home run king, Aaron the organic home run king and Barry Bonds the anabolic home run king. In 14 season opening starts for the
Senators, Walter “Big Train” Johnson pitched a record nine shutouts. On April 4, 2005, Dmitri Young of the Detroit Tigers hit three home runs in his team’s opener against the Kansas City Royals at Detroit’s Comerica Park. He became the third major leaguer with three home runs on Opening Day, following the Toronto Blue Jays’ George Bell in 1988 and the Chicago Cubs’ Carl “Tuffy” Rhodes in 1994. The St. Louis Cardinals were the first major league team to open their home season with a night game, beating the Pittsburgh Pirates, 4-2, at Sportsman’s Park on April 18, 1950. The longest Opening Day game in major league history was played on April 5, 2012, between the Indians and Blue Jays. Played at Cleveland’s Progressive Field, it ended with the Blue Jays beating the Indians, 7-4, in 16 innings. Two other times Opening Day games went 15 innings. On April 19, 1960, at Cleveland’s old Municipal Stadium, the Tigers defeated the Indians 4-2 in 15 innings. The Athletics and Senators also played a 15-inning season opener on April 13, 1926, with Washington winning, 1-0, at home. On rare occasions, mostly in the early part of the 20th century, teams would sometimes open their seasons with a doubleheader. The first of these occurred when the Boston Americans (now Red Sox) and Athletics split a pair on April 20, 1903. The most recent Opening Day doubleheader came on April 7, 1971, with the White Sox sweeping the host Oakland Athletics in both games. And last, but not least, hall of fame pitcher Tom “Terrific” Seaver started a record 16 Opening Day games for the New York Mets, Reds and White Sox.

And now there’s Palcohol ”One pill makes you larger, and one pill makes you small. And the ones that mother gives you, don’t do anything at all. Go ask Alice, when she’s ten feet tall.” Those words, of course, are the opening lines of the iconic rock song White Rabbit written by Grace Slick and recorded by the psychedelic rock band Jefferson Airplane. Twenty-First Century America has not only fully embraced the tenor of that song but appears dedicated to adopting the 1960’s hippies need to alter their reality. How many ways can Alice get ten feet tall in today’s self-indulgent society? Well, there’s pain pills, mood altering pills, medical marijuana, recreational marijuana and an abundance of household products that will do the job. Then, there’s beer, wine, distilled spirits and now there’s Palcohol. Palco-what? In early March, federal regulators from the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau approved the sale of powdered alcohol. The “Tang” of alcohol is scheduled to arrive on store shelves this
summer. Palcohol is a dried form of alcohol that comes in small packets that you just add water to and shake and presto you have an alcoholic drink. Each packet weighs one ounce, has natural flavorings and the sweetener sucralose, contains 80 calories and is equal to a shot of alcohol. According to USA Today, the creator of Palcohol, Mark Phillips, says he wanted to create an alcohol that would be lightweight and easy to carry on-the-go. “When I hike, kayak, backpack or whatever, I like to
have a drink when I reach my destination. And carrying liquid alcohol and mixers to make a margarita, for instance, was totally impractical.” You know, that’s what I always think when I’m standing at the top of Wilkerson Pass in awe of the beauty of South Park and the Collegiate Peaks or went I come across a ten-point buck on a run through Lovell Gulch or when I spot an eagle, while kayaking on Rampart Reservoir … “Nice but God just fell a little short here. I wish I had some alcohol so I could enhance my experience.” Really? Sorry, I had to get that off my chest. The Phoenix based company plans to release five flavors … vodka, rum, cosmopolitan (whatever that is), powderita (as in margarita) and lemon drop. Sounds like the yummy stuff that kids would love and therein lies the rub. Dr. Kennon Heard, an ER doctor and medical toxicologist at the University of Colorado, told CBS news last year that he
had a number of concerns about the product. “Given the flavors it comes in, there’s the potential for it to be very appealing to small children,” he said. Several states have already moved to ban powdered alcohol, including Colorado lawmakers who last month advanced legislation to temporarily halt its sale. Palcohol’s light weight and small packaging also raises fears that it would be easy to sneak alcohol into public events. The legendary Bob Dylan must have had on his 2015 soothsayer hat when he penned the lyrics, “Everybody must get stoned.”

There’s gold in them hills With the winter nearly coming to an end, it certainly has been a surprise to many all over the United States. I want to go back to 1891. That winter there was a real surprise in store. That was when they really found gold in the Cripple Creek District. The first real claim in the Cripple Creek District was in 1891. It was done by Bob Womack, as is well known to most, even those not interested much in history. His mine was called the El Paso Claim, but to most it was simply Womack’s Claim. It was on the west bank of Cripple Creek a little above the town of Fremont. No, there was no town of Cripple Creek yet. Fremont would eventually become Cripple Creek, the town. The mine was above Fremont, near Poverty Gulch, which
is east of Cripple Creek. He sunk a shaft about 40 feet down, where he found a vein that assayed at $100 a ton, but he barely found a ton of the ore. The claim was worked about six months before the efforts were given up. By then other mines were being done all over the hills, most with equal results.

Late in the year, the claim was sold to F. F. Frisbee. He started new diggings into the side of the hill near the old shaft. Womack had found free gold in Cripple Creek, which led him to locate his claim on the spot. Free gold is nearly pure gold. It was not found very often in the area, but Frisbee found the vein of free gold only a short distance into the hill. It soon turned into a vein of fairly rich ore. The size of the deposit grew! It was certainly a winter surprise. The ore was taken to Florissant in wagons, where it went out on the train. Frisbee was sending several wagon loads a day within a short time, and the workings still looked great. The ore went mainly to
Leadville, where there were several smelters, but there were also others in Denver at the time. Within a short time smelters were built near Florence, south of the district. This would inspire the construction of the two railroads into the camp. The further Frisbee dug into the hillside the better it got. By February 1892 he was shipping more wagon loads everyday and even had to guard his loads! It only got wilder. I have told stories about how the camp looked in that winter of 1892. I think it was probably a lot like this winter, as I read the old newspapers. It certainly was adequate inspiration to build cabins to live in. Would you want to be living in a tent in this kind of weather?

Idleman stages annual prom program
By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com
The annual school prom can be a turbulent time. In Woodland Park, however, the worry over how to afford a dress is removed, due to the generosity and time given by Deb Idleman. “The reason I started this is that I met a young lady and felt compelled to help her find a dress for the prom,” Idleman said. “She had struggling family issues and, since I have a lot of connections, I found a way to get her to the prom.” Since that time several years ago, Idleman has expanded the program to include hair stylists, jewelers, dry cleaners, alterations and snacks. One year, she held the fashion- show party at the Broadmoor. Over the years, the prom program escalated as Idleman called in favors from friends she’d helped in the past. Consequently, the dresses come from a variety of sources, Woodland Park, Castle Rock, Colorado Springs and Denver. Idleman collects the dresses and drops them off at the high school where Lynette Gustafson coordi-
nates the program. Last week, Idleman brought in another armload of dresses, to be reviewed by a group of students who were more than willing to stage a fashion show. The dresses come in all colors and sizes. For Idleman, enhancing the prom experience for others revives memories of her junior year in high school. “We were dirt poor - my dad had a bad accident and couldn’t work,” she said. “I got asked to the prom but thought I couldn’t go.” However, when Idleman told her older sister about the heartache of having turned down a date, her sibling and friends bought the prom dress. “I’ve never forgotten that,” she said. “I felt there was a need here in Woodland Park.” Students are invited to come to the high school on April 1 to select a dress and participate in the fashion show and party, with food donated by the Swiss Chalet, Carmen’s and Joanie’s. The prom is May 2 at the Ute Pass Cultural Center. Idleman is up front about asking for gratitude. “All I ask is that sometime in your life, you pay it forward,” she said.
Deb Idleman, center, hosts a party every year for high-school students that has turned into a tradition that includes fashion show, snacks, hair styles, jewelry and alterations. Idleman is conferring with Raven Henry as Olivia Briggs-Hale, left, looks on. Photo by Pat Hill

Pastor resigns from Church in the Wildwood
By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com
After nearly 10 years as pastor of Church in the Wildwood in Green Mountain Falls, David Shaw announced his resignation to the congregation March 8. In an emotional beginning to the service, Shaw said he had answered a call from a congregation in Montclair, N.J., also a United Church of Christ. “What a week it has been, in that it has been exciting on the one hand to know that we are making a change and it’s also fear-inducing to one degree or another,’ he said. “Change is fear-inducing for all of us when we confront it.” Shaw’s last Sunday service with the congregation is May 24. The pastor, who was ordained at the age of 27 in the church in Green Mountain Falls, focused his ministry on social-justice issues. To relieve the burden of poverty, he founded a food pantry; to ensure the safety of children, he worked with Fostering Hope, a nonprofit organization. To alleviate the frustrations of senior citizens, he initiated a program to help with light maintenance issues. In a turbulent time for teenagers, he took a group to Montana to spend a week on Northern Cheyenne reservation. During the Shaw years, the church hosted education workshops on issues such as the minimum wage, budding capitalism among women in South Africa, the American prison system, healthy consumerism and gun control. “The one that got the most response was our forum on gun control,” Shaw said. Shaw’s sermons are provocative. Of the commandment to honor thy father and mother, Shaw chastised people who believe the elderly are taking down America, because of Medicare and Social Security. His voice dripping with sarcasm March 8, he repeated the mantra heard periodically in some circles. “I do raise a lot of different topics about what’s happening in the world and ways in which we might pay attention,” he said. “Because in part, it’s just an extension of who I am, what I’m interested in. I think American people of faith have to try to have a broad sense of what’s going on in the world, not just about us.” Among the controversial issues Shaw waded into was approving an internship for Clare Twomey. Twomey is a lesbian minister who was ordained after the internship. While a few members quit the church, the majority welcomed her ministry. Today, Twomey is a minister at the Historic Congregational Church in Manitou Springs. Sue Frindt, who is retired after working for years at Church in the Wildwood, reflects on the Shaw years. “Dave brings Christianity into the 21st century,” she said, adding that Shaw initiated classes titled Christianity 101. “I met him in 2005 and it’s great to see him grow in our ministry.” When Chris Keesee founded the Green Box Arts Festival several years ago, Shaw played a role in offering a residency to Larry Keiwin +Company, a New York dance company that performs at the festival every year. The church hosts many of the events throughout the festival. “He’s done so much, he’ll be missed,” said Keesee, reached by phone in Scotland. Keesee noted that Shaw initiated the improvements on the historic Sallie Bush Community Building as well as the entrance to the church. “That building is the most architecturally significant building in Green Mountain Falls,” Keesee said. “The pastor has left a wonderful legacy.” In a time when fewer people are including church attendance in their schedules, Shaw’s legacy is notable. “There are congregations like this one all across America, small, more progressively-minded congregations that have closed their doors,” he said. “We’re still here - and looking at the future, there’s still light, hope and love here. That’s a wonderful thing.” Shaw and his wife, Stacey, and their children Benjamin, 7, and Josie, 5, plan to start their new lives in June. “There

Benefit for museum raises over $4,000 OLD HOMESTEAD PARLOR HOUSE
More than 200 attend fundraiser By Sonja Oliver
Contributing writer The 17th Annual Pearl’s Follies, a fundraiser to benefit the Old Homestead House Museum, netted over $4,000 in donations for restoration and maintenance of what was once a brothel and is now a museum. “(Pearl’s Follies) netted over $4,000, which is terrific for just a handful of ladies who did a lot of hard work. The money is used for maintenance, restoration and repairs — anything that is needed to keep the doors open. Last year, we put a new roof on (the building). This year, we will be refurbishing the dining room to restore it (into Victorian-style authenticity),” museum Vice-president Karen Zoellner said. More than 200 people attended the fundraising event which was held at the Double Eagle Hotel and Casino. Greg Brazill acted as Master of Ceremony and CCRB was the house band. Other musical acts who donated their time for the cause included: Lissa Hanner, Alan and Renee Caldwell, Brandie Larson, Shelby Evanikoa, Trigger Schaefer, The Other Mountain Remnant, Mckensie Best and Lauren Lanning and Greg Brazill. During the event, a silent auction was held with contributions from Wildwood
Over 200 Cripple Creek community members and supporters turned out for the 17th Annual Pearl’s Follies, raising over $4,000 to help with ongoing restorations at the circa 1896 Old Homestead House Museum. Pictured (l-r) are Homestead House Museum Vice- President Karen Zoellner, Secretary- Treasurer Charlotte Bumgarner, Gold Camp Victorian Society member Howard Melching, Steve Zoellner, and museum board member Michelle Rozell.

The Old Homestead Parlor House, located at 353 Myers Avenue in Cripple Creek, was once the most famous brothel in Cripple Creek and is one of only three historic structures of its type known to exist in the country. Meyers Avenue was considered to be the “red light district” of the city, where brothels lined the street. Pearl DeVere arrived in Cripple Creek and established her business in 1893. The Old Homestead Parlor House catered to the more refined “gentlemen” of Cripple Creek with its opulent decor and extravagant amenities such as running water and electricity. The current house is a museum and was constructed from brick in 1896, after the original house burned during the devastating Cripple Creek fire that had burned most of city to the ground. One year later, in 1897, Pearl was found unconscious in her bedroom and is said to have died tragically from an overdose of morphine. She is buried at the Mt. Pisgah Cemetery, just west of town. In 1958, the house was made into a museum — the first brothel museum in the country - which has been restored to its original Victorian splendor with crystal light fixtures, velvet bedspreads, lace curtains and handmade wooden furniture.

Soup’er Art and LionScribe Writing Show stars shine
Fundraiser nets over $300 for Lake George Charter School arts programs By Sonja Oliver
sonjaholiver@gmail.com The Lake George Charter School’s theme for this year’s annual Soup’e Art and Writing Show event was “The brightest stars are those who shine for the benefit of others!” which was held on Thursday, Mar. 5, raising more than $300 for the school’s art program. More than 125 people from the community joined the students, staff, and families to celebrate and recognize the creativity of student artists, along with an awards ceremony to ac-

knowledge student writers who had participated in the school’s LionScribe writing competition. The community gathering was a culmination of the annual art show, now in its ninth year, which displayed students’ works of art from throughout the year and the second annual LionScribe writing contest which took place on Feb. 3. Works of art from more than 100 student artists, preschool through sixth grade, were displayed throughout the school gymnasium during the show and dinner. Each student artist had selected a piece of their favorite art from the year to mount for presentation and display during the show. Students then wrote an artist statement to describe the piece of art they chose for the show, including the title, materials used, and the artistic element in focus. Art teacher Donna Knox said the 3-D animal: a study in duct tape received the most reaction from attendees and was a crowd favor-
ite. “The students were so proud to have their artwork on display and admired by all who were there,” Knox said. In addition, student art was available for purchase by donation during the Soup’er Art and Writing Show, with all proceeds used to obtain additional paint and clay for the LGCS art program. Donations for the art program were also accepted at the door. The writing competition was initiated by teacher Kathleen Ogden in order to promote the art of writing. On Feb. 3, the entire student population participated in the writing event. Students were given a choice of topics to write about, such as: a favorite thing to do with their family; an invention to make a difference in people’s lives; and what it means to be a hero. The students used the morning to plan and brainstorm their ideas and in the afternoon on the same day composed their final essays. Judging was based according to

Following the awards ceremony, families and staff of the Lake George Charter School generously provided a pot luck dinner with a variety of homemade soups, stews and chili donated by volunteer cooks. The soups were as diverse as the community with favorite stan-
dards such as chicken noodle and several variations of chili. The school contributed fresh bread sticks, cookies and drinks. “We are especially grateful to the nine judges who invested their time and talents in reading over all the students’ papers and leaving comments for each one. They all seemed to enjoy the creativity of these young minds. We deeply appreciate Maggie Hunt who do-
nated funds to promote the writing program at Lake George. Wendy Booth donated her time and creative talents decorating for the awards ceremony,” co-organizer and teacher Kathleen Ogden said. Judges included: Evelyn Adams, Tonya Favinger, Rick Favinger, Myrt Fredenburg, Bill Jordan, Cleon Ochsner, Norma Ochsner, Nick Oliver and Sonja Oliver.

Two Woodland Park Hockey Association teams win gold Squirts and PeeWees came from behind in championship games By Danny Summers
dsummers@coloradocommunitymedia. com Two Woodland Park Hockey Association teams won Pikes Peak Hockey League championships on March 15. The PeeWees (under-12 years old) and Squirts (9-10) both came from behind in their title games at Colorado College’s Honen Ice Center to bring home gold to Teller County. “This is tremendous for Woodland Park Hockey Association,” said Jed Bowman, Woodland Park School District superintendent and head coach of the PeeWees. “Our kids won those games with pure heart.” Bowman’s team advanced to the championship game with victories over Air Force (6-1 on March 13), Colorado Springs Hockey Association White (2-1 on March 14) and Colorado Springs Hockey Association Gold (4-2 on March 15).
During the regular season, Woodland Park lost to all three of those teams. In the finals against the Gold, Woodland Park trailed 2-0 after the first period of play. But late in the second period Jacob Thorpe’s goal cut the Gold’s lead in half. Assisting on the play were Tyler Scarborough and Tyler Baldus. “You could see the ice begin to tilt our way with Jacob’s goal,” Bowman said. Woodland Park tied the score five minutes into the third when Tyler Thime found the back of the net on a power play. Scarborough picked up the assist. With the momentum clearly on Woodland Park’s side, it was Scarborough who scored the go-ahead goal at the 12:50 mark on an assist by Thime. The Gold pulled its goaltender in an attempt to gain an advantage, but Thime found an open space on the ice and scored an empty net goal to seal the victory. The PeeWees finished the season with a 10-6-4 record. They only allowed 24 goals; the fewest in the six-team league. Bowman has sons - Brenden and Carson - on the PeeWees. Other members of the team include Joseph Quintana, Jacob Hedrick, Vaughn Henggeler, Noah Miller, Aiden Miller, Ewan Miller, Owen Gaul, McCoy
Kleppe. Piper Doust and Ashton Schwery. The PeeWees’ assistant coaches are Kirk Miller and Scott Thorpe. The Squirts’ impressive post-season run began with an 8-6 victory over Colorado Springs Squirts Gold on March 14. Woodland Park defeated Air Force Squirt Blue, 5-4, in the championship game. Woodland Park, coached by Tim DeNio, trailed after two periods in the championship game. DeNio’s son, Gabriel, scored three goals in the championship game, including the game-winner. Gabriel, a center and team captain, scored five goals and had two assists in the win over Squirts Gold. “The kids played hard and pulled it out,” Tim DeNio said. “It was really great to be part of this.” The rest of the Woodland Park Squirts team consists of Emmit Gaul, Kaitlyn Roy, Ryan Mitchell, Sam Thorpe, Westin McCorkell, Grayson Rockenbach, Colten Sell, Sedona Doust, Rhiley Montoya, Sam Bradley, Teryn Thime and Wyatt Hunter. The team’s assistant coaches are Dan Bradley and Mike McCorkell. What made the championships even more special was that this is Woodland Park’s first season in the Pikes Peak Hockey
League. The Woodland Park Association was founded in 2009, but played strictly a freelance and tournament schedule until last fall. This season also included a host of freelance and tournament games. The PeeWees House team played tournaments in Gunnison, Fraser and the Air Force Academy. “This year in Gunnison we learned where we were and who we are as a team,” Bowman said. “We got outscored 25-1 in four games. We knew at that point we were going to build a strong defensive team if we were going to have any success.” Bowman and other members of the association are hoping that as Woodland Park continues to have more success a high school team can be formed in the coming years. This year four Woodland Park students played hockey for Palmer. “That vision is still alive,” Bowman said. “We’re trying to build success from the lower levels up. “Having a high school team would be great for Teller County. We have our friends in Cripple Creek-Victor. Our friends in Manitou Springs. It would be great for the whole Ute Pass region.”
Neal headed to Ottawa to cheer on Braves Woodland Park senior Jessica Neal shows a lot of spirit By Danny Summers
dsummers@colorado communitymedia.com Jessica Neal will take her high flying act on the road. The Woodland Park High School senior cheerleader signed an athletic/academic scholarship with Ottawa (Kansas) University on March 16. Neal, who is also a sprinter on the Panthers’ track team, is getting about half of her $30,000 per year tuition paid for. “I went for a visit (to Ottawa) and to work out with the team in January and fell in love with the school and the community,” said Neal, who plans to major in education. Neal signed her scholarship during a
small ceremony at Woodland Park. She was joined by her parents, Joseph and Denise. “This has been (Jessica’s) game,” Denise said. “We tried not to get in her way and let her find the college that she felt most comfortable. “Once she spent the night (at Ottawa) and bonded with the squad she knew that’s where she was going. Neal Neal began dancing at two years of age. She focused on ballet, tap, jazz and hip hop. She began cheer/spirit when she was a fourth-grader at the Colorado Springs Christian School Woodland Park campus. A year later, Neal gave up dance to focus on school and athletics. Her mother was the CSCS’s athletic director. “I played volleyball, basketball, soc-
cer, and ran track and cross country,” said Neal, whose older brother, Jake, golfed and played baseball for Woodland Park. Neal continued to focus on her cheerleading skills, eventually participating at the club level with Colorado Elite in Colorado Springs. At 5-foot 3, 110 pounds, Neal made a perfect flyer; the person thrown into the air - and hopefully caught - by the team’s other members. “You have to have a lot of trust that in the people that are going to catch you,” Neal said with a smile. “I’ve had a few small falls, but nothing too bad.” Last December, Neal and her Woodland Park teammates competed in the Colorado State Sprit Championships at the Denver Coliseum. The Panthers competed in Class 5A-4A coed division, taking 20th among 40 schools. Woodland Park had the third highest finish among Pikes Peak region schools behind
Falcon (7th) and Doherty (13th). Woodland Park ranked ahead of Sierra (29th), Mitchell (33rd) and Air Academy (36th). “That was a lot of fun,” said Neal, who co-captained Woodland Park’s team with Cheyenne Hellman and Halle Brinn. Cheerleading in high school is a twoseason sport (fall and winter). Woodland Park’s season actually begins in June or July when the team assembles at camps. In the fall, the spirit team cheers at football games and volleyball matches. In the winter they are at boys and girls basketball games, as well as wrestling matches. Neal is one of the top Woodland Park sprinters this season. She is a four-year member of the track team. Neal said the Ottawa spirit squad cheers at fewer athletic events than in high school. “But they ask you to do a lot harder skills,” she said. “I’m looking forward to it.”

Ryan named to All State WPHS student to play in Australia By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com A whirlwind week for Alexandria Ryan, being awarded All-State honors on the Colorado State Volleyball Team leads to an unexpected trip to Australia in July. A junior at Woodland Park High School,
Ryan, 16, was invited to play in the 2015 Down Under Sports Tournament in Brisbane. In her 13th volleyball season, Ryan was initially inspired by watching her half-sister play in a tournament in Denver. “I thought it was exciting,” she said. At the age of 8, the Denver tournament influenced the next few years of Ryan’s life. By the third grade, she was playing for the city’s volleyball team through the Parks and Recreation Department.
Today, she plays middle block/hitter for the high school team coached by Stacy Roshek as well as a club team coached by Howard Lau. Ryan attributes her selection to All State to receiving All League Honorable Mention last season. Not only was Ryan selected to be on the team but she is now charged with raising $6,500 to afford the trip. “This is an opportunity once in a lifetime,” said her mother, Tammy Ryan. “We’ll figure out how to do it.”
The schedule is part-volleyball, part sight-seeing that includes the Great Barrier Reef. While the Down Under Tournament includes members from the 50 states, Ryan is part of the Mountain Conference, which is sending three teams of nine players. While Ryan works at Cathedral Ridge, she still needs help raising the funds for the trip. For information, go to www.downundersports.com/make-payment, or call 435-753-4732.

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF MARCH 23, 2015
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) A pesky health problem should clear up soon. Meanwhile, travel -- both for personal as well as for business reasons -- is strong in the Aries aspect this week, and well into the next. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Look for Bovines to be on the move this week, whether it’s traveling for fun or for business. Other “moves” include workplace adjustments and, for some, relationship changes. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Geminis who have just gone through a hectic period involving job and/or family matters might want to take some well-earned time out to relax and restore those drained energy levels.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) A romantic situation seems to have stalled, just when the Moon Child was expecting it to go forward. Could that be a bad case of miscommunication going on. Talk it over openly and honestly. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Showing a genuine interest in something that’s important to a friend, family member or colleague could open a communication line that had been pretty much shut down for a while. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Making a potentially lifechanging decision takes as much knowledge as you can gather, plus determination and patience. Take your time working it out. Don’t let anyone rush you. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) You should be back on schedule and heading in the right direction after clearing up a misunderstanding. But there could still be some setbacks. If so, correct them immediately. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) A business matter keeps you pretty busy, but try to squeeze in time to be with family as well as close friends. You need the good vibrations you get from people who care for you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) Investing in an attractive prospect (business or personal) with little or no information can be risky. Avoid future problems by getting all the facts before you act. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Someone close to you might have an unexpected reaction to a decision you feel you’re prepared to make. Listen to his or her point of view. It could prove to be surprisingly helpful. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Don’t give up yet. That once warm, personal relationship that seems to be cooling off fast could recover with some tender, loving care, and who better than you to provide it? PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Career matters are strong this week. You might want to enter a training program to enhance your skills. Also, consider getting professional help in preparing a brilliant resume. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a way of respecting the feelings of others, which is one reason people feel comfortable having you in their lives. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.
