MY NAME IS Kim Vanderholm works as a veterinarian in Franktown and works with the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office K-9 program.

KIM VANDERHOLM

Franktown veterinarian devotes life to animals About me I’ve always been an animal lover and wanted to be a veterinarian from a young age. I grew up showing horses in 4-H and participated in three-day eventing with the national organization Pony Club. I was born in Fort Collins, but ended up going to high school and college in Nebraska. I went to veterinary school at Kansas State University and am now one of the owners of Franktown Animal Clinic.

I’m also a board member for Friends of Douglas County K-9.

Working with animals My first job after graduating from veterinary school in 1997 was at Franktown Animal Clinic, and I’ve been there since that time. It’s been a privilege to be able to treat all of the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office working K-9s. They are amazing animals and willingly serve to safeguard the residents of our community. I’m happy to serve on the board of Friends of Douglas County K-9, a nonprofit that was started in 2011. We hold a fundraiser, the Howling Good Time gala, each year at the Cielo Events Center in Castle Pines. The event gives attendees a chance to meet the dogs and their

handlers and we have live and silent auctions along with a fabulous dinner.

This year the event will take place on Sept. 20. We raise money to care for the working K-9s of Douglas County after they retire and also to purchase new dogs, training and equipment to protect our county.

My hobbies I’m a proud a soccer mom and a wife with a 13-year-old daughter. We spend a lot of time watching local soccer games, attending Colorado Rapids games and taking our daughter, Logan, to practices and tournaments. I ride a Triumph Bonneville motorcycle and love to snowboard.

Why I live in Castle Rock When I was in my senior year of veterinary school, I drove to a summer internship in Window Rock, Arizona (on the Navajo Nation). As I was driving out of Denver I came down I-25 into Castle Rock and thought the valley was beautiful. I decided at that moment that I wanted to live here, so I made it happen. I love living in a smaller town and getting to know the people in my community.

My advice Treat everyone with kindness. You don’t know what difficulties they may be experiencing in their life.

Deputy justified in shooting, DA’s office says Bradley Proulx encountered armed suspect on County Line Road in May

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A Douglas County sheriff ’s deputy was justified in shooting a man who came at him with an assault rifle after the deputy stopped to assist with a disabled car in May, according to a review of the incident by the district attorney’s office.

The report was issued Aug. 11 by the 18th Judicial District’s Critical Response Team, which

investigates officer-involved shootings.

Here’s what the report says happened after deputy Bradley Proulx spotted an SUV apparently disabled on the side of County Line Road near Santa Fe Drive on the southern edge of Littleton on May 12: A woman in the SUV, a white GMC Yukon, told Proulx that they didn’t need assistance because someone was on the way to pick them up. Proulx told the occupants, a man and two women, that he’d stick around until their ride arrived. A person in a Honda soon arrived and took the two women, leaving Deyon Marcus Rivas-Maestas, 25, behind the wheel of the disabled vehicle.

Sexual assault suspect pleads not guilty Still no trial date for Ponderosa High School security specialist

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A former Ponderosa High School security specialist charged with sexually assaulting a student on campus entered a plea of not guilty on Aug. 7 at the Douglas County Courthouse.

Gary Postell, 50, of Castle Rock, faces two counts of sexual assault on a child by a person in position of trust, a Class 3 felony, and sexual assault with a 10-year age difference, a Class 1 misdemeanor.

for a Class 3 felony is four to 16 years in prison.

A trial date has not been set.

Postell’s next court appearance will be a case-management conference on Oct. 16.

On Nov. 29, 2016, Postell was arrested after detectives received a report of the assault and interviewed the susPostell pected victim on Nov. 28, finding enough evidence to press charges.

Postell was hired by the district in 2014. After the arrest, he was placed on paid administrative leave. On Aug. 8, a Douglas County School District spokeswoman confirmed he is no longer employed by the district.

Q&A with school board candidate Anthony Graziano Douglas County Board of Education in District B

BY MIKE DIFERDINANDO MDIFERDINANDO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Anthony Graziano, 51, of Castle Rock, is a 13-year resident of Douglas County. He and his wife, Amy, have two daughters that have gone through Douglas County schools.

Graziano has worked in the software and information technology industries since 1995. He has a master of education in human resource development from Colorado State University and a bachelor’s degree in political science from the State University of New York at Albany.

Graziano is a longtime volunteer basketball coach for the Castle Graziano Rock rec league. He and his family have hosted three foreign exchange students in the last three years following an eight-month sabbatical they took as a family traveling to 15 countries in Europe and Asia.

Graziano is running for the District B seat, which is occupied by James Geddes, who has not yet announced whether he will run again.

Why did you decide to run?

As a 13-year resident of Douglas County, I appreciate and enjoy all there is to offer in our community. To live here is to experience an exceptional quality of life, strong local

businesses, an abundance of parks, trails and outdoor activities and an involved and educated community. As a father I think it’s important to set an example for my daughters by serving the community we love so much. I’d like to give back, and this is an area where I could make a positive impact. I am running for school board with the promise to listen closely, understand issues and seek solutions through responsible service.

What are the most important issues facing the school district?

Despite all the positive aspects of life here in Douglas County, I’ve witnessed some changes in our public schools over the past eight years that concern me. DCSD needs to create and follow a fiscally responsible budget, placing the needs of students first, while being transparent to taxpayers. The school board needs to act as a stable and functioning unit, providing a positive example and strong leadership for the community. Substantial turnover in any highperforming organization is not sustainable. We must create a culture so that we retain and hire the best educators.

The board has been divided in recent years. How would you help bridge that divide?

While the school board is several layers away from the real work that’s going on in the classroom between teachers and students, there’s a trickle-down effect the board has on the overall function and culture of the school district. Making decisions behind closed doors, putting dissenting voices on a time clock and

not following standard procedures are no way for a high-performing school board to operate. I am all for healthy debate and differing opinion.

What has been lacking though, and I will work to insert, is respectful dialogue, compromise and serving the interests of our community.

Would you be supportive of a bond or mill levy to bring more funding to the district?

Whether it’s a leaky faucet or your furnace not working in the winter, what homeowner wants to let their home to fall into disrepair?

I’m all for improving efficiency with the funding we’ve been allocated, but there is a growing backlog of structural needs that require attention now or later. If improved efficiency is not enough, I’m for a bond and mill levy. Our 67,000 students and 8,700 employees deserve a safe and healthy learning environment.

What do you want people to know about you?

I am an IT sales professional and I enjoy traveling, golfing, music and walking my dogs.

Pretty simple. My wife, Amy, and I just celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary. We have two daughters, Celeste and Nina, who have attended our neighborhood schools in Castle Rock from kindergarten through high school. A few years ago, my wife and I homeschooled our girls for eight months while we traveled to 15 countries, experiencing time together and countless great adventures. I’ve been very involved in my girls’ schools and running for DCSD Board of Education is a great step to take my involvement in our community to another level.

Frontage Road improvements secure funding support County plans intersection improvements and relocation of roadway south of Castle Rock

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Douglas County commissioners have pledged $6.4 million as of their Aug. 8 board meeting toward improvement projects along the West I-25 Frontage Road — a stretch running parallel to Interstate 25 south of Castle Rock — bringing some potential good news for residents who say the road is a conduit for hazardous traffic.

Commissioners pledged $1.4 million toward improving the intersection of West I-25 Frontage and Tomah Roads, and another $5 million toward right-of-way acquisition and design plans needed for a relocation of the roadway between Tomah Road and Plum Creek Parkway farther west of the interstate.

But for other county residents, the proposed projects raise questions.

Although there was no public comment during the agenda item, some residents stayed after the meeting to discuss their concerns with county staff. Among those concerns were the possibility of increased noise and

traffic in residential areas.

Design plans for the project may still be in the works but early mockups propose moving Frontage Road through residential areas like Twin Oaks and Yucca Hills on the southern edge of Castle Rock.

The relocation project has a long way to go before shovels hit the ground. With the county pledging $5 million for land acquisition and design plans, it would still need to find funding for the remaining cost of the project. An exact project cost and project timeline has not been determined.

As for the intersection project, that too will require some legwork. The project could mean adding auxiliary lanes, left-turn lanes, widening pavement, improving curves and looking into both a temporary three-way stop or a three-way signalized intersection, said Art Griffith, Douglas County capital improvement project manager.

There are also plenty of players needing to be involved in making the project happen, inlcuding the Colorado Department of Transportation.

“The project is within CDOT’s and the interstate highway right-of-way so we’ll have to coordinate closely with CDOT and the federal highways to seek their approval in anything we do,” Griffith said, noting the project may also occur on the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad’s property.

The county’s next steps will be working on design plans and outreach to the various project partners.

Gun thieves hit Cabela’s in Lone Tree Robbery method matches similar recent incidents in metro area

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The recent rash of Denver metro area burglaries targeting firearms retailers reached Lone Tree as thieves broke into the Cabela’s outdoor supply store at 10670 Cabela Drive in Lone Tree at about 1 a.m. Aug. 10.

Multiple suspects crashed an SUV into the front door to gain access to the store, making off with an unspecified number of firearms, according to Lisa Meiman, public information officer for the Denver division of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

“This is a very important issue to the ATF, and it’s our top priority to find out who the suspects are and arrest them,” Meiman said.

Meiman said the bureau is assisting the Lone Tree Police Department with

the investigation, reviewing surveillance video and comparing store inventory with Cabela’s management to determine the number and value of the weapons stolen.

The robbery is the latest in a series of similar incidents, including recent burglaries and attempted burglaries of gun stores in Castle Rock, Littleton, Parker and Lakewood. Meiman couldn’t confirm whether the robberies are connected.

“We can’t go into an investigation with any preconceived ideas,” she said, “but at this point we aren’t ruling that out either.”

The ATF is offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of suspects in this year’s burglaries. Anyone with information can call the tip line at 1-800-283-4867, or Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867.

Tips can also be submitted at reportit.com or through the ATF’s “reportit” app.

“We encourage anyone with any information about this to call us before these guns make their way into the wrong hands,” Meiman said.

Great American Eclipse blocks the sun Aug. 21

BY SCOTT TAYLOR STAYLOR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It’s a mighty big fuss for what amounts to a shadow.

The moon butts its way in between the Earth and the sun Aug. 21, casting its shadow across the continental U.S. from sea to sea.

A cross-continental U.S. total eclipse like this hasn’t occurred since 1918.

And the rare event comes with a special name: The Great American Eclipse.

“That’s what they call it, because everyone in the United States will get to see something, at least a little bit of it,” said Damon Olsen, astronomy instructor at Littleon’s Arapahoe Community College. “Everyone in the U.S. will see it, plus Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean. They’ll all see something.”

Along the Front Range, the moon begins creeping over the sun at 10:23 a.m., covering more than 90 percent of the sun just before noon.

By 1:23 p.m. the Great American Eclipse should have moved out of Colorado.

Schools, libraries and parks across the Denver Metro area are hosting viewing events, complete with glasses, telescopes and crafts for kids.

At Westminster’s campus of Front

Range Community College, the school will have multiple filtered telescopes, eclipse glasses and other displays.

“We will have a telescope, solar viewing glasses, pinhole cameras,” said Carla Wente, chair of the science department at Front Range Community College’s Westminster campus. “We may have astronomical binoculars, which are binoculars with special solar filters.”

The path matters Like most professional sky watchers in Colorado, Wente said she won’t be anywhere around here when the eclipse begins. She’s headed north into the path of the deepest part of the shadow, total coverage of the sun by the moon.

“Like millions of other people, I’m going to be at the eclipse,” Wente said.

SEE ECLIPSE, P7

GREAT AMERICAN ECLIPSE EVENTS The Great American Eclipse runs from about 10:20 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. across the Front Range, the maximum eclipse at about 11:45 a.m. and lasting for two or three minutes. Viewing events are free and open to the public unless noted otherwise.

Anythink Library branches, Thornton The library’s branches at Huron Street, Wright Farms and York Street will host eclipse viewing parties with eclipse glasses, safe viewing technique discussions and crafts.

Arapahoe Community College, 5900 S. Sante Fe Drive, Littleton A question-and-answer session with astronomy faculty begins at 11 a.m., along with video streams from other locations on the campus’ west lawn. Viewing stations will include filtered telescopes, pinhole cameras and eclipse glasses.

Community College of Denver, 1111 W. Colfax Ave., Denver Viewing station will be set up near the Confluence Building with two telescopes and eclipse glasses.

Denver Museum of Nature and Science, 2001 Colorado Blvd., Denver The museum will be giving away a limited number of eclipse glasses and selling them for $2.99 each when the free glasses are gone. Eclipse-themed events are scheduled throughout the day, includ-

ing a NASA live-stream indoors, solarscope viewings in Boettcher Plaza, family Eclipsercize in the studios, and crafts and story time in the Discovery Zone. Eclipse events are free with general museum admission.

Front Range Community College, Westminster Campus, 3645 112th Ave., Westminster Viewing stations will be set up in the parking lot in front of the rotunda. The school will have 1,000 solar eclipse glasses that viewers can borrow, several filtered telescopes, pinhole cameras for tracking the eclipse and displays about the science of eclipses.

Regis University, 3333 Regis Blvd., Denver Individuals will all receive free eclipse glasses for viewing from the campus commons, while supplies last. Physics and astronomy faculty will have filtered telescopes to watch the eclipse and will be on hand to answer questions and lead activities. In case of bad weather, the campus will stream live NASA footage of the eclipse.

ECLIPSE FROM PAGE 6

“Basically, everyone else here is going to Wyoming, so my husband I decided to go Nebraska. Either way works, but we didn’t want to get stuck on traffic on I-25.”

Solar eclipses come in three varieties: total, annular and partial.

A partial eclipse occurs when any part of the moon covers the sun, and that can happen as often as five times per year.

Annular eclipse happen when the moon moves completely in front of the sun but, because of the moon’s elliptical orbit, it is too far from the Earth to completely block the sun.

An annular eclipse results in a bright ring of sunlight around the moon.

Total eclipses, like this one, are the rarest, typically occurring somewhere on Earth every 18 months or so.

The Aug. 21 solar eclipse begins about 9:55 a.m. mountain time some-

where over the North Pacific Ocean, northwest of Hawaii and just east of the International Dateline.

It makes landfall on U.S. soil at about 10:04 a.m. just west of Salem, Oregon, reaching totality — total blockage of the sun by the passing moon — at about 11:17 a.m mountain time there.

From there, it follows a looping diagonal path southeast across the country’s midsection, through Idaho, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennesee and South Carolina.

Eclipse totality comes closest to Colorado before noon. Casper, Wyoming, should go dark at 11:43 a.m.; Grand Island, Nebraska, at about 11:59 a.m.

The total eclipse should last less than two minutes in each location.

The eclipse finishes with the U.S. and leaves the continent at 2:10 p.m. mountain time just north of Charleston, South Carolina. It’s completely finished at 2:55 p.m. mountain time out over the Atlantic Ocean.

Those in the direct path will see the sun completely covered, all but a

wispy ring. That is the sun’s chromosphere or atmosphere and seeing that is why eclipses matter to astronomers.

“It’s one of the rare times you can actually view the sun’s atmosphere,” Wente said. “It’s one of the advantages of having a total eclipse. It’s the very lowest atmosphere, right above what we think of as the surface of the sun. It’s colored red but you can’t normally see it because the sun is so bright.”

It’s also the most breathtaking for everyone because a 100 percent total eclipse is as different from anything else as night and day — quite literally, Wente said. Under totality, the sky goes dark and stars will be visible.

A crescent sun Colorado is out of the path of totality and Wente said sky observers should not expect mid-day darkness here. From the perspective of viewers in Westminster, the moon will cover nearly 93 percent of the sun; in Highland’s Ranch it’s about 92 percent.

“The sun’s wattage, what we actu-

ally see, is about 1,300 to 1,400 watts per square meter,” she said. “A light bulb is 100 watts. So even 10 percent of the sun’s light will be a lot. I’m expecting it, personally, to be like a cloudy day.”

There should still be quite a show.

“I think the amazing thing will be just to see the sun as a crescent, to see the moon over on top of the sun,” she said.

The eclipse maximum will be over quickly, she said, finished here in minutes.

“Part of the fun is the whole process, the moon moving in over the sun,” she said. “We won’t get that totality, but will get to follow along, up to that 90-plus percent.”

And if you miss it, don’t worry.

There will be another Great American Eclipse on Aug. 12, 2045 — and this time, Denver will be in the path of the totality.

“It’s just like this one, but 200 miles to the south,” she said. “It’ll come right through the center of Colorado and we only have to wait another 28 years.”

Douglas County welcomes students back to class

BY MIKE DIFERDINANDO MDIFERDINANDO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As music played in the background, sixthgrade students at Rock Ridge Elementary locked arms and formed a tunnel for younger students to run through, welcoming them for the first day of classes.

The Castle Rock school was one of the dozens of Douglas County schools opening their doors Aug. 10 for the 2017-18 school year.

Principal Peter Mosby enthusiastically welcomed each class of new students to the school during the kickoff ceremony.

“I want you all to use your inquiring minds, your thirst for knowledge, and learn a lot of cool and fun stuff,” Mosby told the crowd of students.

Getting WISE to renewable water Long-planned project brings big city water to south metro area

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Too many cooks is usually a good way to ruin a good thing, but in the case of delivering safe, renewable

drinking water to customers in the Denver metro area, the more partners the better.

That’s the thinking behind the Water Infrastructure and Supply Efficiency, or WISE, project, a partnership among 12 water providers that recently began delivering water to its members after more than eight years of planning, construction and anticipation.

“It’s incredibly complex to figure out how you’re going to share a pipe,” said Mark Marlowe, director of Castle Rock

Water. “People have poured years into making this happen, so it’s great.”

The WISE partnership began with years of negotiation and intergovernmental agreements among Aurora Water, Denver Water and 10 of the 13 members of the South Metro Water Supply Authority.

“Most of us would love to do everything on our own,” said Ron Redd, manager of the Parker Water and Sanitation District. “What we found over time is that we can’t afford to do that.”

When Denver or Aurora have more water than they can use, other WISE members can bid for the surplus, allowing them to utilize renewable water and save groundwater supplies for drought periods.

It’s a cost-saving move for Denver and Aurora, and it puts the South Metro Authority on track to meeting its goals of shifting away from groundwater sources such as the Denver SEE WISE, P18

Senator responds to ‘Cardboard Cory’ tour Gardner announces three town hall dates on Aug. 15 amid criticism for lack of accessibility to constituents

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner made an appearance during the recent Douglas County Fair and Rodeo — sort of.

On the fair’s closing day on Aug. 6, Castle Rock became the latest of many pit stops made by a cardboard cutout version of the senator.

“Cardboard Cory” has been making its way across the state through a movement in which critics of the senator take cardboard cutouts of him to public events. Then, they encourage people to ask the cutouts questions they would pose if speaking to Gardner face to face.

The tour aims to “starkly highlight his (Gardner) absence during August recess month,” according to the movement’s website, gardnertownhall.com, and his “reputation for avoiding the public.”

Gardner, however, in an Aug. 11 written statement, maintained he connects with constituents regularly.

rado meeting with Coloradans in the community, at their workplace, or at events like a county fair that I went to with my family earlier this week,” he said.

But members of Indivisible Douglas County CD4 brought “Cardboard Cory” to Castle Rock on Aug. 6 to protest what they called a lack of outreach. The organization is a local chapter of the nationwide Indivisible group, which formed in protest of President Donald Trump’s policy agendas.

The Douglas County Indivisibles carried their “Cardboard Cory” around the county fairgrounds for more than two hours, gathering video of local residents asking it questions.

Videos are posted on the Indivisible CD4 Twitter page.

Why get involved “The point is that Sen. Gardner needs to at least give the appearance of paying attention to his constituents,” said Jeffrey Brothers of Castle Rock, who along with Jeanette Schwecke and Sue Zloth, are among the organizers of the Cardboard Cory tour’s Douglas County appearance.

Schwecke, a 17-year Castle Rock resident, said she participated Aug. 6 partially out of curiosity.

“I jumped at the chance just because I wanted to see what the local impression would be of having Cardboard Cory out there,” she said.

Castle Pines resident Zloth, who leads Indivisible Douglas County CD4, said she and the others have been disappointed with the senator’s availability to constituents.

“His lack of interaction with us, the fact that he won’t have a town hall, he won’t sit down with us, he won’t listen to his constituents,” Zloth said.

“The whole point is as a senator it is his job, his duty, to interact with his constituents and he’s not doing it. It’s very frustrating.”

All members said they regularly reach out to the senator’s office.

They’ve requested meetings, sent emails, faxes and made calls. Members of Indivisible also met with staff in Gardner’s office earlier this year, but aside from that, they said they have not been able to meet with the senator.

Issues important to Brothers, Schwecke and Zloth span from health care to immigration to education.

As of Aug. 6, their hope was for Gardner’s office to schedule a town hall in or near the Denver metro, so they could ask him those questions in-person. Their chance may have arrived: On Aug. 11, Gardner’s office announced three new town hall dates — one in Colorado Springs, another in Greeley and a third in Lakewood — all scheduled for Aug. 15.

Leaders in Colorado decry Virginia violence The following are Twitter posts by some elected officials in Colorado in the wake of the Aug. 12 violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, that left one person dead and 19 injured:

U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette (D-Denver) Domestic terrorism in #Charlottesville must not go unanswered. America, we are better than this.

U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Denver) Today’s attack is not the result of “many sides”— it’s an act of domestic terrorism. @POTUS should explicitly denounce white supremacy.

State Rep. Crisanta Duran (D-Denver) Not in America. We must denounce racism, white supremacy & domestic terrorism. We are better than this. #Charlottesville #coleg #copolitics

U.S. Rep. Ken Buck (R-Windsor) White supremacists are ignorant and hateful. All Americans must unite against racial intolerance and bigoted ideology.

U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Yuma) Praying for those hurt & killed today in Charlottesville. This is nothing short of domestic terrorism & should be named as such.

U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman (R-Aurora) Heartbroken to hear about loss of life in today’s domestic terror attack in #Charlottesville. Evil, no matter its face, must be condemned.

U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter (D-Golden) This is outrageous. Everyone should stand up and call out this shameful racism & fight against it. #Charlottesville

State Rep. Brittany Pettersen (D-Lakewood) This is a tragic day for America.

My heart goes out to the families who lost their loved ones, and to all of the people injured by this tragic act of terrorism. There aren’t many sides to blame Mr. President, there are only white supremacists to blame

State Rep. Joe Salazar (D-Thornton) US lost nearly 500,000 to fight Nazism and hatred during WWII. We allow it to fester in US in 2017.

State Rep. Cole Wist (R-Centennial) Standing in solidarity with @crisantaduran and my #coleg colleagues against hatred, racism and bigotry.

Town is a true treasure — but really, you had to be there

f you haven’t been to Estes Park lately, put it on your list. I don’t remember the last time I went up there — maybe 30 years ago.

There have been a number of ambitious and impressive developments, but you can still find the sideshows that go along with places like that. I will get to that.

Jennifer, Smitty and I just came back, and we were (almost) all smiles.

The location is spectacular. It’s right up there with other parts of Colorado that make living here a gift, and visiting here a jealousy.

I had to keep my eyes on the road, but Jennifer did a great job of giving me a worthy tour, interjecting gasps that startled the dog.

The year-around population is less than 6,000,

but it seemed like that many were on Elkhorn Avenue the day we were there.

We bought lunch at a place called Baba’s. The food is exceptional, and the backdrop is exceptional. However, they need to have someone come in and put shoes and socks on the place. It looks like the decorator lost a bet. Overlook it.

You will leave and write a poem about the gyros.

We took our lunch to a side road and parked facing a pine tree-hatted mountain, and inhaled our lunch and inhaled Colorado.

We weren’t interested in seeing The Stanley Hotel. Knowing about it is enough. It opened (1909) before the Titanic was built, by Freelan Oscar Stanley, who moved to Colorado with his wife to find a drier climate. Stanley had tuber-

culosis. Stanley had money. Heard of Stanley Steemer?

We drove past Estes Park High School, home of the Bobcats. The students have an endlessly inspiring view. I thought about enrolling.

With all of that inherent, natural beauty, I don’t know why there are so many kitsch and taffy shops. It’s like selling “I (Heart) Grand Canyon” mugs at the Grand Canyon, or snow globes at Mesa Verde.

Maybe you can’t go home empty-handed: Mitch and Betty back home in Indiana are on your shopping list. I have a tip for you. You can order “I (Heart)” mugs and snow globes that say

Scheffel’s experience crucial I was thrilled to see Debora Scheffel announce her candidacy for the Douglas County school board. Dr. Scheffel started her career right here in Douglas County as a special education teacher, and she has devoted her entire life to serving students and educators.

Most recently, she represented the 6th Congressional District as a Republican member of the Colorado State Board of Education for six years.

Someone with Dr. Scheffel’s level of experience, knowledge and dedication to education will be incredibly valuable to our school district. There are already some attacking her for being a prominent elected official in the realm of education, but I think her decades of experience provide an incredible opportunity to accomplish great things for Douglas County students.

I’m excited to see Debora and the rest of the Elevate Douglas County team — Randy Mills, Ryan Abresch, and Grant Nelson — lead board meetings after November. I believe they will provide the kind of leadership our district needs to face the challenges of the coming years.

Whether passive or active investing, strategy is important

T

he argument between passive and active investing has been going on for years. Passive is buying exchange traded funds (ETFs) that mimic a certain benchmark; active utilizes a research team and fund manager to make investment decisions.

Passive investors favor low-cost performance, but that lower cost comes at a price — namely risk. Active managers, of course, get paid for their work and often can’t outperform their benchmark after the cost is considered. The indexing gets you 100 percent of the returns but also 100 percent of the risk.

Active managers strive to return 90-95 percent of the index but with only 60-70 percent of the risk. Therefore, you need to determine what your goal is for each category and invest accordingly.

Index investing can be very valuable and certainly has its place when used as part of an overall strategy. You still need to know how much exposure you are willing to take in certain segments of the market. You also should build your portfolio to help mitigate the risk by having proper diversification. It is prudent to consider active managers

our head and in our heart, and choose to keep those thoughts to ourselves.

Discretion is always appreciated but not always practiced.

In a business meeting or family dinner, we may find someone who is advancing and maturing in their role at the company or growing up through life. They may have some wonderful ideas, lots of creative energy, and may offer up some of those inspired ideas with pride and enthusiasm. Although we may think we know better, this is a perfect example of not trying to be right just for the sake of proving we are right or trying to assert our seniority or life experiences.

Who knows? If we can be open to not being wrong, and just be open to new ideas and thoughts, we may just learn something, too, by simply doing the right thing and listening and exploring instead of placing our stake in the ground to be right.

when you can both outperform and reduce the risk of a given index or benchmark. This is most valuable in your riskiest categories, such as small cap equity or emerging market investing.

A recent article by Jeff Cox on CNBC. Patricia Kummer com reported that active managers are having their best year since 2009.

Managers who have been overweighting some favored sectors have been outperforming their passive counterparts by following the stocks that are moving the markets. The first half of 2017 reports 54 percent of large-cap managers beat their benchmarks and 60 percent beat in the second quarter alone.

Low volatility can be the enemy of stock pickers when there is not much price movement to trade. However, many fund managers have gotten better at sector selection according to Cox’s article. They over-weighted positions in the tech sector, discretionary and

well, I had more than my doubts about the findings.

So I sent a message to the publisher and he replied back, standing his ground that the results were based on a recent survey of customers. Since I knew the results were biased, based on his own feelings, my first instinct was to start blasting #fakenews or #fakeresults. But instead I took the person for who he was, understood his place in promoting only the people who advertise with him, and did the right thing — just laughed it off with him.

My belief is that he lost in both categories: He wasn’t right, nor did he do the right thing.

So how about you? Do you have the need to always be right? Or are you more driven and satisfied knowing you did the right thing? I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@gmail.com.

health care, the top three performing categories. They have been underweighting staples, utilities and telecom shares.

Another factor is correlations, or when stocks move up and down together. The more closely stocks are in tandem with one another, the more difficult it is to find a winner. Many sectors have splintered off from the broad market trends and have created enough price discrepancy for active managers to benefit from.

Valuations and style also have a bearing on performance. So far this year, 71 percent of value managers and 64 percent of growth managers have outperformed their benchmark.

Despite the better performance of active fund managers, investors have pushed $701.9 billion into passive exchange traded funds, or indexes, for the 12 months ending this May, according to Morningstar. It seems just as indexing may be catching on, the tables are

turning with performance in favor of some active managers.

Whether you use passive or active management or, hopefully, some of each, it is important to have a strategy before you invest. This will help you determine how much exposure to have in each market sector and when to take profits from the high performers.

Then you can determine which sectors benefit the most from active management so you know when it makes sense to pay for that expertise.

‘I am not your typical Republican’ Elizabeth businessman, former Parker Mayor Greg Lopez runs for governor

so far are Congressman Jared Polis, of Boulder; former State Treasurer Cary Kennedy, of Denver; and former state Sen. Mike Johnston, also of Denver.

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A crowded race to become Colorado’s next governor includes former Parker Mayor Greg Lopez.

Lopez, 53, was elected at the age of 27, serving from 1992-96, and is proud of the fact he was the first Hispanic candidate to hold the position.

Following his term as mayor, Lopez served as district director of Colorado’s Small Business Administration from 2008-14. In 2016, he ran unsuccessfully for the U.S. Senate.

Lopez The Republican now lives in Elizabeth, owning and operating a consulting business as well as a bar and restaurant in Aurora that he runs with his son.

More than 20 candidates are seeking to replace term-limited Democrat John Hickenlooper in the November 2018 election. On the Republican side, notable candidates include District Attorney George Brauchler, of Parker; businessman Victor Mitchell, of Castle Rock; and Mitt Romney’s nephew, Doug Robinson, of Centennial. On the Democratic side, the most recognizable names

DRIVING OPPORTUN

What did you do as mayor of Parker that makes you a good choice for governor?

I’m the one that made all of the decisions to build the Parker Rec Center. The council was split, so I was fortunate enough to make all of the decisions to break the ties.

The other (accomplishment) I am most proud of was an annexation, it was called the Jacobson property… The council at the time was very adamant that they were going to authorize it or approve it. They forgot that I had veto power.

So I vetoed the project, and what happened was the applicant decided to take it to the ballot…

The results were three to one in my favor… That is the one time I can honestly say that I had my finger on the pulse of the community and I did exactly what their wishes were.

What do you think is the biggest issue in the campaign?

The biggest challenge that Colorado faces is not what everybody else talks about — it’s not transportation. The biggest challenge is that we have 1.4 million people receiving coverage for medical care under Medicaid, and the state needs to do more to allow these individuals to provide for their families…

What I think we need to do is partner with local jurisdictions, chambers of commerce, and

create programs by which people will be able to increase their abilities, increase their skill sets and have dignity knowing they have a job.

Pundits are projecting this will be the costliest campaign in Colorado history. How will that affect your campaign?

We’re reaching a point where only the wealthy or those who can fund their own campaigns are the ones that are going to find themselves in elected office at the highest levels. For me it goes beyond that. The next governor has to win the county of Denver and has to win Boulder. If you don’t win those two counties, it doesn’t matter how much money you spend, you’re not going to be the next governor of Colorado...

I’m the only candidate that can go into the City and County of Denver and garner the support of the minority community.

Both major parties are viewed unfavorably in recent polls and historically, the party that lost the White House tends to do better in midterm elections. Do you think party politics will play a role in this race?

It may matter for the other candidates, but it won’t matter for me because, as you look at me, just the visuals, I am not your typical Republican…

It’s important for me to always understand that I’m here to do what’s in the best interest of the state, not what’s in the best interest of the party. I don’t care if a solution comes from a Republican or a Democrat or an unaffiliated, I’m interested in solving problems.

Chasing the

n the kitchen at West 29th Restaurant and Bar, Chris Johnson, 56, whips up intricately plated dishes and feels the heat as flames dance off the stove. He throws a meat-based pasta sauce in a pan as his mentor, chef Cory Matthews, handles another dish behind him.

He places a portion of house-made pasta in the pan, then pours it all into a bowl.

And the dish is complete.

In the Denver metro area, you don’t need to try out for a Food Network show to be a bona fide chef.

An apprenticeship program in the Denver, Boulder and Greeley areas prepares aspiring chefs for “the real world,” as one mentor chef said.

For Johnson, 56, the program was the natural next step after a life of bouncing between different careers, including working as the maintenance director at a Georgia private school and running his own business, one that

IF YOU’RE INTERESTED The program runs for two years — September through mid-July for the first year and August to the end of July for the second year. Enrollment ends Aug. 28.

Total tuition including books, uniforms, knife kits and food supplies is $6,750. Students need not have any prior restaurant experience, but must have a high school diploma or equivalent and be 17 or older. made statues and molds.

“I always wanted to cook and open up a restaurant, basically,” said Johnson, who searched for a cooking program after being laid off from a previous job. A Lakewood resident from Savannah, Georgia, he cooked as a hobby for events like birthdays and wedding receptions, but never professionally.

So Johnson decided to spice things up after hearing about the American Culinary Federation’s apprenticeship program. That organization’s local chapter, Colorado Chefs Association, oversees the program, which allows students to take two years of weekly classes at Metropolitan State University of Denver and to get real-world experience as an appren-

DID YOU KNOW? Students take one five-hour class per week and work 40plus hours in hands-on training the rest of the time. Students also take three online classes — sanitation, nutrition and management.

An apprentice can make anywhere from $9.50 to $14.50 an hour starting pay. Some of the bigger locations that apprentices work at offer health benefits and vacation.

Most graduates pass the test for sous chef certification at the end of the program, said Christopher Moore, a mentor chef. Those who don’t pass still earn the certified culinarian title. Moore said most that get that certification go on to get their certified executive chef title.

To register, call 303-222-0057 or email Monica Leonard, apprenticeship coordinator, at mleonard@acfcoloradochefs.org.

tice under a mentor chef at hotels, country clubs and restaurants in the area.

“I looked at the price between Johnson and Wales and this,” Johnson said. “It’s affordable. You learn just as much.”

The price can be a big difference — about $7,000 for

the apprenticeship compared to up to $60,000 for some culinary schools, said Christopher Moore, a mentor chef for the program. But the main draw is a gulf of difference in experience students get. They need none to apply and get paid for the hours they work.

• Colorado has had its apprenticeship program since the 1970s.

• The first American Culinary Federation Apprenticeship Program was started in the 1970s by the Pittsburgh chapter. Since then, it’s grown to 70 programs with more than 2,000 culinary apprentices in training across the country.

And you’re never too old to reinvent yourself — Moore sees students from 19 to 50 years old. Apprentices “come from everywhere,” he said.

One graduating this month is from Austin, Texas. Johnson’s nephew from out of state will join the program in September, too.

Not just book learning An apprenticeship provides the hands-on learning that can’t be obtained in a classroom, said Matthews, Johnson’s mentor chef and the executive chef at West 29th Restaurant and Bar in Wheat Ridge.

Students get “more technique, more basics,” Matthews said. “It also ensures that the person is dedicated to continuing in the industry. You get sous chef certification at the SEE APPRENTICE, P47

Kesha returns with grace amid continuing struggles

W LINER NOTES

Clarke Reader

ith the incredible abundance of music being released on any one of a dozen outlets every Friday, it can be difficult to get really excited about a new release.

That wasn’t the case on Aug. 11, when pop star Kesha finally released her long-awaited album, “Rainbow,” her first new release in five years.

The fact that one of the best pop musicians of the decade is releasing something new is reason to cheer, but it’s especially heartening given her long road to get here.

In February 2016, I wrote about the #FreeKesha movement, a social media campaign supported by the likes of Adele and Taylor Swift to support the singer’s efforts to legally free herself from Kemosabe, a record label created and run by Dr. Luke.

Dr. Luke, whose real name is Lukasz Gottwald, is a record producer and songwriter, who Kesha alleges drugged and raped her when she was 18 years old and continued to sexually and verbally abuse her throughout their work relationship.

In 2014, Kesha filed a lawsuit against Dr. Luke, which included Sony as a co-defendant, because the company owns Kemosabe. Dr. Luke and Sony countersued, alleging Kesha’s claims were false and a move by the singer to renegotiate her contract. As a result, she was unable to record any music or tour until the situation was resolved.

Kesha filed a preliminary injunction in February 2015 so she could record outside of her contract with Sony and Kemosabe.

In February 2016, New York Supreme Court Judge Shirley Kornreich ruled against Kesha, saying the injunction was an effort to “deci-

CHORUS TO KESHA’S “HYMN” “This is a hymn for the hymnless, kids with no religion Yeah, we keep on sinning, yeah, we keep on singing Flying down the highway, backseat of the Hyundai

Pull it to the front, let it run, we don’t valet Sorry if you’re starstruck, blame it on the stardust I know that I’m perfect, even though I’m f-d up

mate a contract that was heavily negotiated and typical for the industry.”

That means any attempts to make music had to be with Dr. Luke and Sony, and in the year and a half since I wrote that piece, there has been dispiritingly little progress made.

According to reporting by Joe Coscarelli in The New York Times, Kesha’s further contract claims were mostly rejected by courts or withdrawn, and Dr. Luke has filed a lawsuit for defamation and breach of contract. Kesha is in the process of appealing the decisions, but “Rainbow” was released by Kemosabe records.

So Dr. Luke will in all likelihood make money off the release. And Kesha still owes his record company two more albums if nothing changes.

But like any great artist, Kesha has taken her struggles and turned them into vibrant and vital music, making “Rainbow” the best album of her career so far. It demonstrates her astounding flexibility and range, and features appearances from Dolly Parton, soul group The Dap-King Horns, and Eagles of Death Metal. Although she doesn’t address her challenges explicitly, they’re all over songs like “Hymn” and “Praying,” two of the album’s best songs.

Hymn for the hymnless, don’t need no forgiveness ‘Cause if there’s a heaven, don’t care if we get in This is a hymn, hymn, hymn for how we live, live, live”

What really makes Kesha an artist worth rooting for is she’s using her music to inspire others who have had similar experiences.

According to Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network statistics, one of every six American women has been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in her lifetime.

Kesha is making music for every person who has experienced this kind of violence, and everyone who wants to be a safe place for the people they love. It’s the kind of thing you want to stand up and cheer about, because chances are we all know someone affected by these kinds of crimes.

In an interview on “Good Morning America” on Aug. 9, the singer fought back tears as she spoke about the album. “I think this record has quite literally saved my life,” she said. “I hope you guys like it, I hope you can hear it and I hope it helps people.”

Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week. A community editor with Colorado Community Media, he cannot state this enough — stand with women.

“It will allow us to rest and restore our wells,” Redd said.

For Denver Water, the biggest advantage to the partnership is a backup supply of water in case of drought. For Aurora, the benefits include sharing the cost of maintaining its extensive infrastructure in the South Platte region.

Customers of all WISE providers will see reduced costs as a result of sharing the infrastructure and keeping staff sizes down,

according to Redd.

“It’s a win-win-win,” said Lisa Darling, executive director of the South Metro Water Supply Authority. “These types of agreements are often settled in court, but WISE is all based on opportunities and advantages for all of the parties. It’s a case of ‘I have this and when I don’t need it, you can use it.’ ” Water is delivered from Aurora through the project’s Ridgegate pipeline, running along the same basic route as the E-470 toll highway.

The Rangeview Metropolitan District just began taking water deliveries and the Cottonwood Water

and Inverness Sanitation Districts, as well as the Meridian Metropolitan District will be next, beginning sometime in August, and the Centennial Water and Sanitation District, which serves Highlands Ranch, should be getting deliveries by the beginning of 2018.

Water providers in Parker, Castle Rock, the Pinery, Stonegate, Dominion are all scheduled to begin receiving WISE water by April 2018.

Digital media/tech campus would create thousands of jobs in Parker Redbarre plans to bring facility by 2020

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A big player in the world of entertainment and digital media plans to bring 4,000 jobs and a 70-acre campus to Parker by 2020.

At an Aug. 11 press conference at the state Capitol in Denver, Gov. John Hickenlooper, Parker officials and Redbarre executives announced plans to create the Redbarre Digital Media & Technology Campus in the Compark area just north of E-470. The 1.9 million-square-foot, mixed-use development will focus on feature film, television and digital media production.

“Something like that can be transformational,” said Dennis Houston, CEO of the Parker Area Chamber of Commerce. “It’s life changing, what it could mean for the town and for the region.”

The company has yet to submit a site plan application, but according to Parker Business Recruitment Manager Matt Carlson, a portion of the property is under contract and the remainder of the required property is under contract with a right of first refusal, meaning the land is available to Redbarre first if needed for the development.

Carlson cautioned that nothing is official yet and that the project is still in its infancy, but added that the fact the governor endorsed the project means that all signs are promising. Carlson added that ancillary businesses generated by the studio would have a significant impact on the entire south metro region.

“Hollywood is not a monolith,” he said. “Those people have to eat somewhere.”

Mayor Mike Waid echoed Carlson’s take, adding that retail space, office buildings and a boutique hotel would likely follow in the studio’s wake.

“The uniqueness of Parker is what allows catalyst projects like this,” Waid said. “This type of project lends itself to the cultural environment we’ve created in Parker.”

Gov. John Hickenlooper addresses an estimated crowd of 150 people at the state capitol on Aug. 11 to announce plans for the Redbarre Digital Media and Technology Campus. Company executives said Redbarre plans to build a 70-acre facility in the Compark area of Parker by 2020, creating an estimated 4,000 jobs.

It’s Almost Here!

Bow Winder of Castle Pines bikes 192 miles this month for cancer research in the PanMass Challenge COURTESY PHOTO

Five questions: Bow Winder Castle Pines man completes 192-mile cycling event, the Pan-Mass Challenge

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

C

astle Pines resident Bow Winder recently joined thousands of cyclists in Massachusetts for a race known as the Pan-Mass Challenge. The cycling event is a 192-mile course across Massachusetts that raises money for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute to support cancer research. The event took place on Aug. 5 and 6, gathering more than 6,200 participants from 40 states with a goal of raising $48 million. Cyclists can choose from 12 routes of varying mileage, and range in age from 15 to 84 years old. While some are cancer survivors, other riders complete the race in honor of a loved one. Here are five questions with Winder about why he got involved.

1

Can you tell us a little about yourself?

I live in Castle Pines North with my wife, Emily, and two sons, Griffin, 4, and Declan, 2. I’m originally from a small town north of Boston where I grew up, but moved to Colorado in 2004. The plan was to stay a year or two, but I met my wife and couldn’t leave this beautiful state. I work downtown for a company called P2 Energy Solutions as a director of finance.

2

How long have you been involved in cycling?

I’ve been cycling for about four years, mainly road biking.

To be honest, I’m not passionate about cycling, but got into it as I became involved in the Pan Mass Challenge.

3

Why did you participate in the Pan-Mass Challenge?

I heard about the Pan-Mass Challenge through my cousin Stirling Winder. She participated in the ride for four years while battling osteo-sarcoma (bone cancer). For those that don’t know about the Pan-Mass Challenge, the event raises money for pediatric and adult cancer research and continues to be the largest contributor to DanaFarber Cancer Institute. The ride raises more money for charity than any other single athletic fundraising event in the country, over $546 million in its 37-year history.

Stirling passed away in 2012, just days before the PMC and I have ridden three out of the last four years in her memory with team Stirling Strong, a group of 10 to 12 riders pedaling in her name.

In preparation for the 192-mile ride from Sturbridge, Massachusetts, to Provincetown, Massachusetts, I trained for three months, mainly around Douglas County.

Do you have the cutest pet in town?

Do you want to help decide who does?

Contest begins September 2nd!

Winners announced Sept. 28th!

4

What was your experience like on the 192-mile ride?

The feeling while riding in the Pan-Mass Challenge is incredible as it’s an overwhelming culmination of emotions and experiences that still leave me in awe. Never have I seen the human spirit so fully dedicated and engaged on achieving a goal, to fight cancer.

5

Would you participate in the PanMass Challenge again?

With two young children and a demanding job, it’s difficult to commit to the PMC year after year.

I plan to ride it again, just uncertain when at this point.

Get ready to party in the Pines

Vino in the Village At this adults-only event, residents can sample more than 50 wine and food pairings, craft liquor and enjoy exclusive shopping — all set to classical music performed by Lone Tree Symphony Orchestra musicians. The liquor tasting, specifically whiskey tasting, is new this year.

“We just thought that it might reach out to a few more people, people who aren’t necessarily wine drinkers,” event director Whitney Shank said.

Vino in the Village runs from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Aug. 25 at The Village at Castle Pines, on the corner of Santa Fe Drive and Happy Canyon Road.

Tickets for Vino in the Village are available in limited quantities online at cppartyinthepines.com for $40 a person or $70 for couples. Tickets are $50 at the door.

Party in the Park Residents can bring lawn chairs for the whole family to enjoy an evening

Run Wild Party in the Pines wraps up with a bout of exercise to help the city work off the food and drinks from the weekend. Residents can participate in three different race events — a 9-mile run, a 4-mile run and a 1-mile Color Me Wild Family Fun Run. Following the races, families can enjoy a bounce house, playground, beer garden and expo. The events will also feature a full pancake breakfast at the finish line, Castle Pines Chamber of Commerce Membership Director Amy Shanahan said.

Run Wild begins at 8 a.m. at Elk Ridge Park, 7005 Mira Vista Lane. Proceeds from the color run will benefit the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office Y.E.S.S. program, which provides youth education in schools. Registration is available at cppartyinthepines. com.

While making their way to the beach at Dunkirk, John Carpenter and his friend Wally stumbled upon an abandoned house, where they took refuge for a few hours of rest. For protection, Carpenter took a crucifix and Rosary beads from the home, both of which he still cherishes. Under the crucifix is his paybook from the British Army.

ritics and historians alike have praised the Christopher Nolan motion picture “Dunkirk” for its inspiring and accurate account of an important moral victory in the early months of World War II, when civilian mariners were called upon to sail whatever boats were available across the English Channel to rescue approximately 340,000 British troops from certain capture or defeat in northern France.

But John Carpenter didn’t need to see the blockbuster film to know what happened at Dunkirk in 1940.

He was there.

“It was chaos,” Carpenter said. “If you saw a boat, you were lucky.”

Carpenter, 99, was a private in the 48th Regiment of the British Army and has lived in Parker for seven years. His daughter, Pat Cowan, moved to the United States after marrying a member of the United States Air Force in 1956, and in the 1970s Carpenter and his late wife came across the Atlantic Ocean to be with them.

But at the outset of the war, he was stationed in the French town of Lille.

When his commander learned that the German army was about to surround British forces, the captain gave carpenter an order he almost couldn’t believe.

“He said `Get back to the beach as fast as you can,’ ” Carpenter said. “It was every man for himself.”

His captain disappeared after giving the order, leaving Carpenter and his friend Wally to find their way from Lille to the beach at Dunkirk alone.

Carpenter contends the film’s depiction of the evacuation was excellent, though it didn’t match his experience. When he and Wally eventually made it to the waterfront, there was no dock and no officers to direct troops to ships.

“Every man was all pushing and shoving,” Carpenter said. “We lost a lot of men, young boys really, all 20 and 21… The boys were just on their own.”

As he and Wally sat against a sand dune, resigned that they would be killed by a sniper’s bullet or one of the German Messerschmitt planes strafing the beach, they were surprised to see help on the way.

“It was a shock to me, because I said `that is a pleasure boat coming in,’ ” he said. “Then I was made to understand there were a lot of small boats coming.”

Unable to swim, Carpenter was pulled onto the steamer, where dozens of other men lay trembling with cold and fear. German planes attacked the boats, including Carpenter’s, but

Upon his return to England, Carpenter and many other Dunkirk survivors were discharged with what would now be referred to as posttraumatic stress disorder. But he couldn’t sit out the war, so he joined the American Red Cross, crossing the English Channel to transport wounded soldiers to safety.

After the Allied victory, Carpenter largely put the war, and the events at Dunkirk, out of his mind. Though there was one reunion, by chance, on a London sidewalk, that he cherishes.

“He looked at me and said `Carpenter!’ ” It was Capt. Wright, the officer who gave him the evacuation order in Lille and promptly disappeared.

“I went to salute him,” he said.

Wright grabbed Carpenter’s arm to prevent the salute and embraced his former private.

“He got hold of me and said `Good boy, you got out alive.’ ”

Emergency responders prepare for the worst

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Smoke and screams filled the air as emergency responders from several regional agencies converged on a field of debris in the Inverness business park near County Line Road and I-25 on Aug. 8.

Actors, covered in artificial blood and gory simulated wounds, played the part of dying and disoriented explosion victims so convincingly that passers-by could be forgiven for not realizing the whole thing was fake.

For the EMTs involved with the simulated bomb blast, creating a realistic, stressful environment was the whole point.

“We’re taking the lessons learned from Boston and applying them here,” said Einar Jensen, South Metro Fire Rescue’s community risk reduction specialist, referring to the bombing at the Boston Marathon in 2013 that killed three and wounded more than 260 people.

Firefighters from South Metro and the Cunningham and Franktown Fire Protection Districts teamed with deputies and bomb squad personnel from the Douglas, Jefferson and Arapahoe Counties sheriff ’s offices, as well as investigators from the FBI. Victims, many of whom are second-year Rocky Vista University students, lay on the ground or wandered about the parking lot, scream-

“It’s a great way to see what to do and what not to do from the other side,” said William Robinson, an Au-

rora resident and student at Rocky Vista in Parker.

After the scene was cleared, victims were transported to Sky Ridge Medical Center in Lone Tree, where staff continued the training exercise, including mock surgeries.

Sen. Cory Gardner

strong working relationship he and I have together.

While it got overshadowed in the media, one of the reasons why we were all in the Durango area was because of EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt. He followed through on his commitment to me to come see firsthand the area around the Gold King Mine Spill near Silverton. Unlike the last administration’s EPA, he promised to not leave the people behind that were impacted by this spill. It was an important moment for the community, and I appreciated his time in Colorado.

Senator talks about working with constituents and his top priorities in Congress

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

What is your impression of the ‘Cardboard Cory’ tour and the individuals involved?

I shared a friendly moment with one of these individuals that attended my Durango town hall last week (Aug. 4).

I always encourage people to be active in their community and engage with their elected officials at all levels of office. While we may disagree on some issues, that’s OK. We can disagree on some issues and agree on others and find common ground in order to work together. That’s what makes this nation such a great place.

Douglas County residents involved with the ‘Cardboard Cory’ tour were unhappy with the number of town halls held by your office. What is your response to them?

Town halls are just one of the many

GARDNER FROM PAGE 10

A ‘debunked idea’ But the Cardboard Cory tour has critics of its own.

Owen Loftus, who’s worked in Republican politics in Colorado for 10 years, including stints as a communications director with the state party and the office of U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, called the Cardboard Cory tour a political stunt.

He questioned where the movement’s funding is coming from and the motives of those sources. He also doesn’t buy into the claim that Gardner is ignoring constituents.

ways to engage with constituents, and while I have had over 100 town halls during my time in office, there are additional things I’m doing to meet with or speak with as many Coloradans as I can.

On healthcare alone, since January my staff and I have had nearly 400 healthcare meetings with Coloradans or organizations involved in healthcare that have an impact on the state.

There is no higher priority than meeting with and assisting constituents.

How does your office reach out to constituents?

I’m proud to say that we have some of the best constituent outreach efforts in the country. We have dozens of meetings a day with Coloradans in Washington, D.C., and across the state. An effective way to reach out to constituents is through tele-town halls. Just this year we have had six tele-town halls where we had over

“They’re upset that they’re not getting their way. They want Cory Gardner to have a town hall on their terms just so they can shout him down,” Loftus said of activists involved with the tour. “They’re not interested in having an adult dialogue.”

Loftus commended Gardner’s office for using more than town halls to reach constituents, naming telephone town halls and social media as examples.

“Thanks to technology he’s able to reach more people,” Loftus said.

“And he takes tough questions.”

Jeff Wasden, a 20-year Highlands Ranch resident, said he has met with the senator or his staff as president of the Colorado Business

57,000 constituents join the call. They are a great way to speak with thousands of constituents at once and to discuss a variety of issues important for our state. I also held several employee town halls at businesses across the state that allowed me to meet with employees and see what I can be doing to better serve them.

What did you learn during the Aug. 4 town hall in Durango, with Gov. Hickenlooper, Sen. Bennet and Rep. Tipton?

I was glad to participate and hear from some great people in Durango.

Sen. Bennet and I stayed for about an hour after the town hall originally ended to take questions, and it was a good opportunity to highlight the

Roundtable. He, too, disputes the idea that Gardner isn’t listening — or available — to constituents.

“I completely discount the premise that Cory is not accessible and is not listening,” he said. “I’ve benefited from those outreach opportunities with him in D.C. and in Colorado. I know that they answer their phones and that they’re listening and they’re meeting with people.”

What are your top priorities while in session?

Our nation has one of the most confusing tax codes in the world that discourages businesses from bringing new jobs to the United States, and makes it difficult for small businesses to grow. I’m working with my colleagues to cut taxes for middle-class families and create new jobs across the state.

I also chair the foreign relations subcommittee that oversees East Asia and the Pacific so the situation in North Korea has been and will continue to be something I am very involved in. This rogue regime has the ability to start a nuclear war and we must do everything we can to stop that. I’ve authored legislation that sanctions nation’s aiding North Korea’s economy and believe that is one of the several ways we can deescalate the situation.

“I think the fact that he met with Bennet and Hickenlooper is great.

I thought it was a great bipartisan image,” Brothers said of the Durango town hall. “What I would like to see him do is take a leadership role on the bipartisan issue, on the bipartisan structure, because he’s in a split state.”

Gardner said in his written reactions to the “Cardboard Cory” tour that he hopes constituents continue to contact his office.

“If there is anyone that believes we can help them with issues ranging from Social Security and the VA to immigration and the IRS,” he said, “we are here to help.”

Cross country athletes get a running start Training for races involves more than a jaunt around the block

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORDOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Many cross country athletes have been running all summer, not merely since the official start of high school practice Aug. 14.

Tempo, progressive and recovery runs, interval sprints and core strengthening are some of the elements of cross country practices as boys and girls athletes prepare for the state cross country championships Oct. 28 at the Norris Penrose Event Center in Colorado Springs.

Mountain Vista’s boys and girls teams, both second at state last year in Class 5A, have been steady regional and state contenders in recent years under coach Jonathan Dalby.

“We meet five to six days a week at Vista for cross country practice, and some of our older athletes meet two to three mornings a week to get in an extra easy 30-minute run before school,” Dalby said. “Most afternoon practices involve flexibility and strength work along with the day’s run. On weekends, we like to do longer runs.

“We do not taper off a lot for early season runs. As we approach the more important races of the year like state and Nike Cross Nationals, we usually decrease both our mileage and intensity.”

Cherry Creek coach Ethan Dusto has the Bruins stress mileage and difficult workouts early.

High school golf coaches focus on building skills PLAYERS TO WATCH

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORDOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

High school golf coaches often find their roles are amended from teaching to enhancing.

Many of the top high school golfers have private mentors who instruct players on proper swing mechanics.

That leaves high school coaches to work on other areas of the game like effective practice routines, course management, improving focus and offering encouragement.

Both Rock Canyon coach Dave Vahling and Legend coach Jay Nelson say they work to reinforce what their players are learning from their swing coaches.

“What we try to do with them is ask what they have been working on with their swing coach and reinforce that,” Vahling said.

The Legend coaching staff evaluates to see “if they are strengthening those skills in our practices,” Nelson said.

Standley Lake coach Ron Rosa Jr. knows two private coaches who instruct some of his players, and he works with them.

“Anything I need an expert opinion on, I know who to call,” Rosa said.

As an instructor for MetaGolf and the head boys coach at Valor Christian, Jason Preeo does double duty.

“The kids on my team that I also coach outside of it, I talk about

things we’ve done in the past or things we want to change,” Preeo said. “For kids who do their instruction with someone else other than me, I’ll just say, ‘Why don’t you ask your coach about this or I’ve noticed this.’ I’ll let them defer to their coach. They do spend more time with him than they do with a high school coach.”

Boys high school golfers started practice Aug. 7 with the first matches on Aug. 10. Regis Jesuit is the defend-

ing Class 5A champion, edging Highlands Ranch by one shot last season.

Valor Christian was third in the 2016 Class 4A state tourney.

This season’s 5A state tournament set for Oct. 2-3 at Common Ground in Aurora, while Raccoon Creek near Littleton will host the 4A tourney on the same dates. Indian Peaks will be the venue for the 3A state tournament on Oct. 2-3.

High school coaches will have five weeks to polish the skills of their

ThunderRidge: Evan Kalack, Sam Ostravich Valor Christian: Ty Findlow, Jack Welch

golfers prior to Sept. 18 regional state-qualifying tournaments for all three classifications.

“When practicing or playing on the course we help with course management, club and shot selection,” Vahling said. “The mental part is very tricky from player to player, and our thought is to help them forget a bad hole and bounce back on the next hole. We try to keep them in a positive frame of mind. We work with them on planning out the course they will be playing that week.”

Short game skills are usually a priority in most high school practices.

“The biggest way we can help our players is with their short game,” said Arapahoe coach Harry Buckner.

“We have many drills for putting and chipping.”

There’s the clock drill with three balls that are placed at 2 feet, 3 feet and 4 feet from the hole in the 12, 3, 6 and 9 positions on a clock. Players need to make all 12 putts to finish.

There is also a ladder drill for speed control and long distance control where golfers aim putts to stop near tees on the green.

For chipping, players have to chip inside the 3-foot circle and competition is held between players. Arapahoe players form teams where one player chips and his partner putts in a bracket tournament.

“Short games can keep interest for about an hour,” Buckner said.

Northglenn coach Molly Huffman said she stresses fundamentals at practice, but adds that technology is a definite boost.

“Technology helps with practice from the simple ability to let players know when and where we are practicing all the way to being able to film the players doing different skills and being able to help them see what they are doing and see what they can do to improve,” Huffman said. “I have several apps that I use... even some fundraising apps.”

move larger or smaller schools up or down in classification depending on success or lack of success. California uses a system based on success.

Hopefully, the subcommittee will not consider adding another classification to a system that is already overloaded with classes.

Any recommended changes from the subcommittee would be considered for the 2020-22 two-year cycle.

Victor is a businessman, but he’s more than that. He’s an entrepreneur. What’s the difference, you ask? There are big differences. First, the entrepreneur works from his own original ideas. A regular businessman can do well merely copying and implementing the ideas of others. The entrepreneur comes up with entirely new innovations and then takes risks, investing his own time and money, to make them happen. He doesn’t just manage other people’s personnel and money. Entrepreneurs are motivated by more than money, too. They are passionate about what they are doing, driven to seek higher goals. They want to change the world. An entrepreneur doesn’t define success narrowly. Rather, he pursues higher purposes and allows history to judge his success or failure. Victor Mitchell is just such a man.

Called Immunity For Emergency Rescue From Locked Vehicle, the law states that persons rendering emergency assistance to a pet, defined as a cat or dog; an at-risk person; or child in a parked vehicle is exempt from criminal and civil liability.

What that means, Perasso said, is that anybody making an effort to help a pet or person locked in a hot car has immunity from both criminal and civil prosecution, as long as that person has a reasonable belief that the pet or person is in danger of serious bodily injury or death.

What is reasonable emergency assistance?

If somebody sees a pet or person locked in a hot car, first notify law enforcement by calling 911. Once law enforcement is aware of the situation, the person should then try to find the owner. If the person cannot locate the owner, then reasonable measures to render aid can take place.

A reasonable effort does not include taking a baseball bat to the car window, for example, Perasso said. Appropriate action would be to first check to see if all the car doors are locked. If

they are, then look for a window that is cracked enough to reach an arm in.

If you can get the pet or person out of the vehicle, the first thing to do is to cool down the pet or person by providing drinking water and a cooler environment, such as a shaded area. If the pet or person appears to be in great distress, then get them to a professional — a veterinarian or doctor — who can administer proper emergency care.

How do you know when to take action?

The Jefferson County Sheriff ’s Office will automatically start seeking out an owner if it is 72 degrees or warmer outside, Perasso said, because it will be hotter inside the vehicle.

“It doesn’t take long for an animal in a hot car to get very sick,” said Jenny Lepro, a code enforcement and animal management officer with the Golden Police Department.

With animals, a number of signs demonstrate whether the pet is suffering from heat distress, she said. Some of these include heavy panting, excessive drooling, dark red gums, rapid respiration and a change in behavior from initial contact.

Why is this important?

Colorado weather is unpredictable, so almost any time of the year can produce weather warm enough that it is unsafe to leave a pet or person locked in a car.

But the peak time of the year that the Golden Police Department receives the highest amount of related calls is March through October.

“If you can’t sit in your car comfortably with the air conditioner off and only the windows cracked, then your pet won’t be comfortable, either,” Lepro said. “Leave them at home if you can’t take them with you everywhere you’re going.”

Hit the reset button Recent years have been hard in the Douglas County School District.

Our schools are still excellent, as the many people moving here for them can attest. But the pace of change has been far, far too quick for many parents, including myself. Add to that the seemingly constant bickering and fighting between the two “sides” on the school board, and I sometimes find myself wishing we could just start over. Sometimes every district needs to hit the reset button.

I’m encouraged by the message being brought to Douglas County by

DEPUTY FROM PAGE 2

In a dramatic exchange captured on the deputy’s body camera and posted to YouTube, Proulx approached the car to offer to push it further off the road with his patrol vehicle. As Proulx approached the driver’s side of the vehicle, Rivas-Maestas exited the vehicle and lunged at Proulx with an AR-15 assault rifle, barrel up, the report says.

Proulx fired a shot that hit RivasMaestas in the upper right arm, then another that hit the open door of the

the Elevate Douglas County slate of Randy Mills, Ryan Abresch, Debora Scheffel and Grant Nelson. They seem to understand something that many activists and naysayers do not: you can be genuinely proud of your schools and your school district — and you can applaud the many things that are going right — without ignoring or addressing the very real issues DCSD faces. It’s about time our community had reasonable, forward-thinking candidates who aren’t necessarily tethered to either “side” of an increasingly ugly political war.

When I vote this November, it will be for peace and getting back to work. It will be for the Elevate Douglas County slate.

SUV. Rivas-Maestas then ran around to the front of the SUV and fell to his knees.

Investigators later found that the rifle was unloaded and had a cable lock on the trigger.

The Critical Response Team found that Proulx was justified in shooting Rivas-Maestas, as Proulx “reasonably believed unlawful physical and deadly force was about to be applied upon him,” the report states.

Rivas-Maestas — who was treated at a local hospital — was charged with first-degree assault of a peace officer, a felony. He has a court hearing scheduled for Aug. 17 at the Douglas County Justice Center in Castle Rock.

end of the program.” A sous chef is the second-in-command chef in a kitchen.

Most culinary schools don’t focus as much on practical knowledge these days, said Moore, executive chef at The Club at Ravenna, which is just south of Chatfield State Park.

“A lot of times, I’ll interact with people, and they say they’ve never done (a certain cooking skill) before, whereas when I went to school, it was the exact opposite,” said Moore, who attended Scottsdale Culinary Institute in Arizona in the 1990s.

Moore said he’s seen a shift toward those schools having a more theoretical focus in the past three years because they often lack an outlet, like a student café, for the food students would make.

“It was explained to me early on in my career that chefs pass on their knowledge, and what used to be passed on generation to generation, father to son,” Moore said. “With culinary school, that doesn’t really happen anymore. So my responsibility is to pass it on to future chefs.”

Students have written tests every week as well, Johnson said. The pro-

Cory Matthews, executive chef at West 29th Restaurant and Bar in Wheat Ridge, holds a pan of food in the kitchen at dinner time Aug. 8. In the back, Chris Johnson, 56, an ACFCCA apprentice, stands ready to assist.

ELLIS ARNOLD gram provides 43 credit hours that are transferable to any community college in Colorado, said Sarah Beatty, a program spokesperson.

But the bulk of working as an apprentice is being thrown into the fire, going through the full process of preparing dishes.

“Knife skills, sanitation, how to really stick to a recipe” and techniques like how to break down a chicken are some of what students learn on the job, Johnson said. “Just things that ... you

wouldn’t think about at the house.”

Time management, dishwashing and cleaning up are also part of the learning package, Johnson added, as the goal is to transition into restaurant jobs, some of which come where students worked as apprentices.

“When you get into the real world, you have to (do food preparation),” Moore said. “If you go to an apprenticeship program, you learn what you need to know to actually cook.”

Learn from the veterans The people that get you there are experts who take you through every step — Matthews has been a chef and sous chef for years.

“You can’t teach willingness and drive and good attitude, which is something an apprentice always has,” Matthews said. “Seeing them succeeding, learning, getting better every day and knowing that once the program’s over ... they’re going to succeed” is the reward.

Matthews graduated from the French Culinary Institute in New York, now called the International Culinary Center, and worked for Garden of the Gods Club in Colorado Springs and the Denver Country Club.

As a young child, he’d climb onto his mother’s back to watch how she would cook.

“My mom, a single mom ... she was just always a great cook,” Matthews said.

Cooking “takes time, effort and love, and that’s what I’ve grown up with.”

Now, he gets to pass that on, along with what he’s learned professionally.

Under Matthews’ direction, Johnson is on his way to becoming a sous chef.

“I would love to own my own restaurant, a small bistro type,” Johnson said.

“But that’s a dream.”

After he graduates next summer, it might be more than that.
