Douglas County High School student raising money for cycling athletes About me I’m a sophomore at Douglas County High School in Castle Rock. I race in the Colorado High School Cycling league for the Castle Rock Crankers. I’ve been into cycling since I began riding 12 years ago and I’m in my ninth season of racing. My family has always ridden with me, even though my mom has multiple sclerosis and couldn’t ride for a few years. My dad and I have gotten her a recumbent Etrike so we can ride together again. Cycling is big in my household. My final International Baccalaureate project I chose to raise money for a Colorado League rider in financial need to get a new race bike and racing kit (helmet, shorts, jersey, shoes). Mountain bike racing can be an expensive activity and finances should not be a barrier to participate. The Colorado League has changed my life in many ways. I have met new friends from all over Colorado and seen the wild, beautiful and varying environments of our state. Kate Rau, head of the Colorado League, has created an atmosphere of excellence and acceptance. Every rider from beginner to expert is encouraged to go out and do the best they can, but most importantly have fun. Mark Neel, Castle Rock Crankers head coach and owner of Castle Rock

Bike and Ski, is my role model and has taught me how to be a good sportsman, teammate and racer. My time racing in the Colorado League has been such a positive experience that I want to make sure that I do what I can to help someone else find the same thing. I have set up donation stations at all the races I’ve participated in since I started my project. Recently, I have begun a partnership with Primal Wear, a cycling clothing company, to sell cycling sweatshirts/jackets with the Go Ride logo and have all proceeds go to funding my project. I also have a website, goridefund.org, that explains the project and is a place where someone can donate money. My hobbies I am a huge mountain biker, and skier. I spend my summers training for the Colorado League races and just going out having fun with my friends. My favorite place to ride is Golden, because there are a ton of awesome trails and it is just an all-around cool town. Winter is my favorite season because I can ski and ride fat bikes. I also race fat bikes and have won multiple races and came in third place at the Fat Bike World Championships in January of 2017. I am going back to race at the world championships this January. My mantra I have a couple different mottos I follow. The main one is a quote from my coach, Mark Neel, “Use that thing between your ears, don’t be a dummy,” and “Live free, ride hard, get stoked!” If you have suggestions for My Name Is…, contact Jessica Gibbs at jgibbs@ coloradocommunitymedia.com.

Castle Rock schools and breweries could soon become neighbors. As of now, the town’s code defaults to a state law requiring at least 500 feet between schools and liquor licensed establishments, like restaurants and pubs. Town staff will research the issue and potentially bring an ordinance to change the rule for areas zoned commercial or industrial before council early next year. The move is thanks to a competitive real estate market, officials said, in which schools are locating where they haven’t traditionally, including industrial and commercial parts of town. “There’s high cost of construction right now, there’s limited availability of space,” Castle Rock Economic Development Council President Frank Gray said. “All of those factors drive schools into industrial areas.” This can unintentionally infringe on the property rights of their neighbors, Gray said, noting it’s an issue spanning across the Front Range, and not unique to Castle Rock. For example, a developer owning property within 500 feet of the school could not then rent space to a restaurant serving alcohol. Existing businesses, say a brewery looking to expand, wouldn’t be able to do so because that also requires a new liquor license, Gray said.

Members of the Castle Rock Economic Development Council asked the town council to consider amending the 500-foot restriction, which the law allows municipalities to do, for commercial or industrial areas but not within residential areas. In a memo to the town, Gray wrote that Parker and Denver have created similar ordinances. This could create an “enter at their own risk” scenario for schools, Councilmember Jason Bower said, in which schools could choose to locate in non-traditional areas but on the understanding there might be businesses holding liquor licenses closer to them than if they’d chosen a residential property. Councilmembers seemed to agree with the EDC — they’d rather address the zoning conflict soon. “I think it’s a pretty big deal,” Bower said. “Traditionally schools have always been in residential areas but now we see them popping up all over the place.” Town Manager Dave Corliss explained schools can locate, “in virtually any zone.” Corliss told council staff would conduct community outreach in preparation for a potential amendment. That, Councilmember Jess Loban said, would be key to making any changes. “I just think this is a pretty complex thing because this is an emotional thing too” Loban said. “You want to have alcohol establishments within 500 feet, which is restricted today. That could be cause for some upset, and so we need to have some really clear and specific reach out to the community and make sure that we get good feedback as we put this together.”

Amid opioid epidemic, six proposals could fight trend Supervised-injection facility, Medicaid and private insurance changes among suggestions

State Rep. Brittany Pettersen, left, and her mother, Stacy Pettersen, are shown in spring 2017. Stacy Pettersen had just been released from weeks of addiction treatment at the time, but she relapsed soon after.

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When state Rep. Brittany Pettersen was a child, her day started with finding and hiding her mother’s keys, pouring out her alcohol and pills, and then going to school. She’d get home, and she’d do it all over again. “It took me probably, maybe being 9 years old, to recognize that my mom was very different from most parents,” said Pettersen, a Democrat representing the Lakewood area. She was concerned about her mom, but she didn’t know what to do. Her after-school routine grew to include checking to see whether her mom was breathing. Pettersen’s mom, Stacy, had an opioid addiction from the time she was about 33. After being overprescribed for her back pain, she developed a dependency that escalated to heroin use when another doctor cut her prescription. After several recent trips to the ER from overdosing, she finally asked for help — the words Pettersen said she waited 29 years to hear. She was far from alone in her fears. Colorado saw 108 opioid-related deaths — involving prescription drugs, heroin or both — in 1999, according to the Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment. In 2016, in that same category, the state saw a death count of 504. Now, Colorado legislators are putting forth six bills to make sure opioid substance abuse doesn’t progress that far. Spearheaded by Pettersen, the Opioid and Other Substance Use Disorders Interim Study Committee aims to tackle the problem from all sides: in the medical world, the law-enforcement field, the health-care industry and — perhaps most directly — where people inject drugs. Safe place amid the stigma The most visible effort, if passed, would allow a pilot project for a supervised injection facility — where people with substance-use disorders can safely inject drugs — in Denver. No other place in the United States has such a facility, according to the Colorado Legislative Council Staff, but there are 100 of them in 66 cities among nine countries, said committee member state Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge. Health professionals would oversee the facility, making sure to reverse overdoses if they happen, Pettersen said. They’ll also be able to refer people to resources to beat their substance-use disorder. “This is about keeping people alive today, bringing them out of the shadows and increasing the likelihood they’ll get treatment,” Pettersen said. Some in the business and law-enforcement communities may be con-

COURTESY OF BRITTANY PETTERSEN

WHAT’S IN THE PROPOSALS? A bipartisan group of 10 state lawmakers called the Opioid and Other Substance Use Disorders Interim Study Committee worked from July to October putting together six bills for consideration in the coming year. In part, the bills would: • Bill A — Direct a research center at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus to design training for health professionals, law enforcement and at-risk communities for safe opioid prescription, treatment and overdose prevention. Also would create the Opioid and Other Substance Use Disorders Study Committee as an ongoing year-round entity through July 1, 2020, to continue work on the issue. • Bill B — In many cases, require medical professionals to check a database about their patients and medications before writing refill prescriptions. • Bill C — Allow supervised-injection facilities and allow for a pilot program for such places, where people with substance-use disorders can safely inject and be referred to treatment.

• Bill D —Bolster financial help for health-care professionals who choose to work in underserved areas through the Colorado Health Service Corps program. • Bill E — Expand access to inpatient and residential — also called live-in — substanceabuse treatment, adding it as a benefit under the state Medicaid program. • Bill F — Speed up requests for medicationassisted treatment for substance-use disorders under Medicaid and private insurance so patients don’t go back to using opioids while waiting for treatment. Interim committees meet while the Legislature is not in regular session, the part of the year when it passes bills. The group unianmously voted for all bills to move forward — aside from Bill B (9-1 vote) and Bill F (7-3 vote) — to the Legislative Council, another group of lawmakers that reviews them before they can be introduced to be considered by the state House and Senate. That council approved the bills to move forward Nov. 15. The regular session starts Jan. 10.

cerned about the facility normalizing drug use, Jahn said, but to her, the apprehension is misplaced — localizing drug use to one safe area could help make businesses, parks and alleyways more safe, she said. “Nothing is gonna impact a business more than when someone walks in for coffee and they walk into the bathroom and find someone dead,” Jahn said. “You want your kids (passing) used needles on their way to school?” she added. Committee member state Rep. Chris Kennedy, D-Lakewood, said the business community has been “wildly supportive” of the idea, because of the problem of people overdosing in bathrooms. The facility would also reduce the spread of HIV and hepatitis C, Pettersen said. “You and I are never going to go do heroin (just) because this place exists,” she added.

understand the opioid issue. The Prescription Drug Monitoring Program collects information submitted by pharmacies about prescribing and dispensing medications, and about patients. Such a statewide database exists in nearly all states, according to the PDMP Training and Technical Assistance Center, but it’s not mandatory for doctors in Colorado to check it before writing prescription refills. It would answer questions like, “Do we have someone at risk of addiction, or are they addicted? Are they doctorshopping?” Jahn said, using a term for when patients go to multiple doctors seeking more drugs. For initial prescriptions, people with acute conditions — getting a tooth pulled, or other short-term issues — would be limited to a seven-day supply of pills for one prescription, in most cases. Chronic, or long-term, conditions would be among the exceptions, Jahn said. Committee member state Sen. Jack Tate, R-Centennial, said the problem in his district is a latent supply of opioids. “My sense is we don’t have as high an addict population as many (areas),” Tate said.

Going to the source The proposals would also require health practitioners to check a database that could prevent writing dangerous prescription refills and create training programs to help them better

But the supply in people’s cabinets, waiting to be grabbed by teenagers or otherwise misused, is the danger, he said. The proposals are expected to direct a research center at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora to develop best practices for training medical professionals how to safely prescribe drugs, as well as how to disseminate that training, Jahn said. That research center for substance-use disorder prevention at that campus was green-lighted by Senate Bill 17-193 in May — Pettersen and Jahn were main drivers — but this proposal reiterates its goals, Jahn said. Filling treatment gaps About a year and a half ago, Stacy Pettersen, 63, experienced a string of trips to the emergency room from overdosing and ended up in the intensive-care unit, her daughter said. Stacy finally asked for help with her condition, but was told that Medicaid doesn’t cover treatment. “We’re spending tens of thousands of dollars keeping people alive and then denying them the help they need to get better,” Brittany Pettersen said. “So that was devastating and I think highlighted for me the enormous gap we have in our system.” In 2015, at least 87 of Colorado’s overdoses from prescription opioids alone — not including heroin — happened to Medicaid recipients, according to state data. That makes getting Medicaid recipients residential, or live-in, treatment a priority for the lawmakers. “Residential means that (you’re) going to go into a facility and stay there — could be anywhere from two to four weeks,” Jahn said. They “get the intense counseling, the therapy: How do I live with my disease once I leave here? How do you put me back into the real world?” Generally, Medicaid covers some care for substance-use disorders in Colorado, including counseling and medications to help treat them, but that doesn’t work for everyone, Pettersen said. Lawmakers’ proposals would add inpatient and residential treatment as more widely covered. “Treatment should not just be for SEE OPIOID, P6

Rock Canyon students leave their mark downtown Art students paint mural in Denver near Coors Field BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

On a recent December afternoon, a handful of Rock Canyon High School students traveled to downtown Denver to transform a gray concrete wall into a colorful Colorado landscape. The students, along with their teacher, Zoe Tessier, got to leave their mark on a nook in the heart of the city, just south of the entrance to Coors Field. “It’s kind of a cool way to apply the 21st century — to get an idea and see it come to life,” said Tessier. The mural was an ongoing project for Tessier’s 30 students in grades ninth through 10th. It was also the first of its kind done by an art class at the high school in Highlands Ranch. Tessier asked each student to draft five to 10 ideas of a painting that best describes Colorado. She then asked a combined real estate business and art studio, on Larimer Street in downtown Denver, if her class could paint a mural on the exterior back wall of its building. The owner of Ion Real Estate, Jim Cavoto, agreed. He and several of his employees sifted through students’ submissions and voted on a winner: a painting by freshman Chris Jung of a scene of white Rocky Mountains, purple clouds, brown downtown buildings, the entrance of the baseball field and a sun overhead mirroring the red “C” from the Colorado flag. “We narrowed it down to two,” said Cavoto of the submissions. “The one we picked was more baseball oriented.” Students who were able to travel downtown and paint on the afternoon of Dec. 19 were thrilled to be selected for such a job. Though one student’s artwork was selected, creating the final masterpiece was a team effort. “It’s more hands-on,” said 15-year-old Olivia Luhnau, holding a thick brush covered in white paint, standing next to her mother, Debbie, who accompanied her on the trip downtown. “It’s a lot more free hand and a lot less detail.” Debbie Luhnau was happy to see her daughter switch out her daily routine of sitting at a desk for participating in a real-word activity. “As a parent,” she said, “I’m excited that my child gets to do something practical.”

Death toll creates urgency in fight against opioid abuse BY TABATHA DEANS STEWART TSTEWART@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

One Coloradan died approximately every 27 hours on average from a prescription opioid-related overdose in 2015, according to Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment data. While that death toll dropped by 9 percent in 2016, the number of heroin-related overdose deaths increased 43 percent. “Right now, we’re seeing about 60 percent of overdose deaths due to pills, with about 40 percent due to heroin,” said Robert Valuck, director of the Colorado Consortium for Prescription Drug Abuse Prevention. “Heroin is making a comeback.” “Overdose deaths across the nation have doubled in the past 15 years,” said Lindsey Myers, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s violence and injury prevention branch chief. The increase in deaths over the long term has led lawmakers in all states to examine ways to combat the problem. Colorado’s legislative Opioid and Other Substance Use Disorders Interim Study Committee recently voted to move forward with a six-bill package of legislation, aimed to help treat, prevent and intervene if possible when opioid addiction occurs. Will the legislation help? The following is a look at what some area healthcare professionals have to say. • One bill proposes to “create training programs for health professionals, law enforcement and at-risk communities for safe opioid prescribing, medication-assisted treatment and overdose prevention.” “Historically, doctors refer patients

the wealthy or people with good insurance plans,” Jahn said. Another arm of the proposals would make insurance plans more cheaply cover alternatives to opioid drugs for pain — physical therapy, chiropractic care and acupuncture — to make sure patients aren’t unnecessarily pushed toward opioids, Kennedy said. It would also bar “step therapy,” a requirement that patients try opioid medications before receiving non-opioid drugs, for both private insurance and Medicaid. “Even if a drug is covered by Medicaid or an insurance company, that doesn’t mean you can actually (get it),” said Kennedy, who is spearheading the proposed insurance changes. He’s also pushing to change the requirement that patients get “prior authorization,” a green-light from an insurance provider, to know that medication-assisted treatment will be covered. That involves a combination of psychotherapy and drugs that help fight opioid addiction, he said. The proposal aims for quicker response times from both Medicaid and private insurers to requests for medication-assisted treatment. Currently,

ABOUT OPIOIDS What is an opioid? Opioids are a class of drugs that include the illegal drug heroin, synthetic drugs such as fentanyl, and pain relievers available legally by prescription, such as oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine, morphine and many others. (Source: National Institute of Drug Abuse) What are signs of abuse? According to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment: • Any use of heroin is considered abuse. • Taking prescription pain medications after the pain is gone. • Seeking prescriptions for a condition you no longer have. • Taking pills prescribed for someone else. out for substance-abuse disorders,” Valuck said. “We really need doctors and physician assistants to take responsibility for their patients, and treat their disorder as they would any other disease.” According to Valuck, physicians and health-care providers could benefit from learning more about medicationassisted treatment and utilizing that treatment with their patients. • Another bill would limit most opioid prescriptions to a seven-day supply for acute conditions, and, in many cases, mandate that medical professionals check the Prescription Drug Monitoring Program database before writing prescription refills. Dr. John Douglas, executive director of the Tri-County Health Department, which serves Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties, said restricting prescriptions for acute conditions could be effective. “I actually think it’s a very good

WHO’S MAKING THE PUSH? The Colorado state lawmakers behind the proposals make up the Opioid and Other Substance Use Disorders Interim Study Committee. They are: • Rep. Brittany Pettersen, D-Lakewood, chair • Sen. Kent Lambert, R-Colorado Springs, vice chair • Rep. Perry Buck, R-Windsor • Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge • Rep. Chris Kennedy, D-Lakewood • Sen. Irene Aguilar, D-Denver • Former Rep. Clarice Navarro, R-Pueblo • Rep. Jonathan Singer, D-Longmont • Sen. Kevin Priola, R-Henderson • Sen. Jack Tate, R-Centennial many insurers may take too long to authorize payment for those treatments, leaving patients unable to pick medications up at a pharmacy, Kennedy said. “If you’re an addict that says, ‘I’m ready to seek treatment,’ and someone says, ‘OK, wait seven days please,’ there’s a high risk that you might return to heroin to avoid withdrawal symptoms,” Kennedy said. On the front lines In Adams, Arapahoe and Jefferson counties, sheriff ’s offices said deputies use Narcan, which can be administered

idea. The vast majority of acute pain won’t need more than seven days (worth of treatment),” Douglas said. “Sometimes, not even that is necessary. Combining certain drugs, which are not opiates, can sometimes work better.” The part of the bill that would require medical professionals to check the PDMP database could pose a problem, according to Myers. Pharmacists are required to update the system every time they fill a prescription for narcotics, so in theory every physician could pull up their patient and assess their history. In reality, the current PDMP system is underutilized by physicians because it is cumbersome and takes too much time to deliver the information, Myers said. “I think providers want to use the system, but it’s underutilized in Colorado,” she said. “The main reason is it is a system that lives outside the workflow of providers. But we are pilot testing ways to make the system easier to incorporate into records.” • A third bill would pave the way for a pilot project for a supervised injection facility in Denver. Offering a safe place, supervised by medical professionals, for addicts to inject may seem radical, but according to Valuck, such places work. “Supervised injection facilities work, we are in support of them,” he said. “First and foremost, these are human beings. Everyone knows someone with a substance use disorder. Secondly, SIFs decrease the spread of disease, such as HIV and hepatitis. These diseases put first responders and physicians at risk.” Tri-County Health already supports

a syringe-access facility in Aurora, which has served about 150 clients within its first year. The program is a street-based program, and those with substance-abuse disorders can exchange dirty needles for clean ones, Douglas said. • Another of the bills proposes to expand the Colorado Health Services Corps program. The program currently includes financial incentives for health care professionals who agree to work in underserved areas. Historically, the program has only included physicians. “It would now include substance abuse counselors through Colorado Health Services Corps,” Myers said. “The new bill would expand program to incentivize people to move and work in areas where there are not addiction counselors.” • A fifth measure would significantly increase access to residential treatment to qualifying people with substance-use disorders. One of the biggest problems is a lack of treatment for substance-abuse disorders, Valuck said. “We are at about an 85 percent treatment gap,” Valuck said. “The state would have to come up with money to help pay for residential treatment.” • The final bill would improve “prior-authorization” standards to ensure insurance companies and Medicaid give timely approval for medicationassisted treatment. This bill also aims to reduce copays for physical therapy, acupuncture and chiropractic alternatives to narcotics. “This is really a good start,” Valuck said. “We have to shift the language, and the way we think of people with substance-use disorders.”

as a nasal spray, to reverse the effects of an opioid overdose. The Adams County Sheriff ’s Office expressed support for creating training programs for law enforcement regarding the opioid epidemic. “By creating a training system for all, it helps us identify and recognize those in need,” said Jim Morgen, spokesman for the sheriff ’s office. In “the rural parts of Adams County, we arrive minutes before medical (support) is able to, and we have to be able to recognize somebody having opioid reactions (including) an overdose. These minutes are crucial in potentially saving lives.” Lawmakers’ proposals include directing the Anschutz Medical Campus’s research center to create training for officers on how to better use naloxone — Narcan is its brand name — in responding to overdose situations. Jahn also said she believes crime would be reduced by creating supervised injection facilities because more people would have access to treatment. A person “would not have stolen all these goods if (they) didn’t have an addiction (they) needed to feed,” Jahn said, speaking hypothetically. Law enforcement officials in Wheat Ridge, other Jefferson County areas and Denver have told her that increases in property crimes have been tied to substance-abuse disorders. Police in Englewood and Littleton have made

similar observations, referencing opioids. “If they were able to get it more easily, or get it at all, we have a better chance,” Jahn said. “People don’t want to live like this.” End of a journey Stacy Pettersen’s lack of Medicaidcovered care left her daughter with few options. People Brittany Pettersen worked with to address the state’s opioid issue recommended an involuntary commitment process — by which she’d receive a court order for her mother to be taken to paid-for treatment. Stacy Pettersen recently began a program at a rehabilitation center after two months in a program where she underwent detox. In early 2018, she’s expected to complete her rehab program, and Pettersen said her mom is learning to live again. At a dinner with family, relatives went around the table and said what they were grateful for, and everyone said they were thankful for her. “It was very emotional,” Pettersen, 36, said. “To have her there and sober and be alive, and how every day is the best day ... it’s like she’s been frozen for 29 years. That’s a lot to deal with, the years that have been lost, but she’s thankful to be alive. “For the first time in 29 years,” Pettersen said, “I have my mom in my life.”

This is the second in a four-part series interviewing this year’s Girl Scout Gold Award recipients from Castle Rock. Four Castle Rock Girl Scouts recently received their Gold Award, the highest honor in the organization. The Girl Scout Gold Award is a seven-step project in which girls strive to solve a community problem. Aimee Bianca, the Highest Awards Manager with Girl Scouts of Colorado, said the process has a lasting effect on the Girl Scouts. “They learn so many things but they really learn how to manage a project efficiently and communicate with adults,” Bianca said. “For the girls, it means that they have the power to create change in their community in a meaningful way and that they have the power to pull together a team of people who support the things they are about.” Here, girl scout Abby Sickinger answers questions about her involvement in the organization and her Gold Award project. About me I am a freshman at Arapahoe Community College. I am very passionate about music, which guided me to study Music Audio Technology. In my free time, I lead a patrol of Junior Scouts (fourth and fifth graders) in a Super Troop (a troop containing all program levels of Girl Scouts). I also love to read and write, and make music with a close friend. What was your Girl Scout Gold Award project and what were its goals? My Gold Award project was called Operation Occupation. The main goal of my project was to help high school students get a job. I had different stations at my event that gave them specific skills needed to acquire a job.

These stations included a resume station, dress and behavior station, mock interview station, and a station with employers looking to hire high schoolers. I also had successful people speak to the attendees about their story. Looking back, what do you think you were able to accomplish through this project? Nine out of the fifteen students that attended got a job after the event, and said that my event helped them gain confidence to do it. My YouTube channel has reached four different countries, and has been seen in different states across the United States. My website has been shared by three different sources, and has been viewed by a total of 73 different people.

Opinions divided on ‘scraping’ in older neighborhoods Old housing stock makes way for larger new homes BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Scrape-offs — homes demolished and replaced with larger, newer ones by developers — have remade vast swaths of Denver in recent years, with hundreds popping up in trendy neighborhoods like Highland, LoHi and Washington Park. Now, as land prices skyrocket in posh parts of Denver, the controversial practice is beginning to move into the suburbs. Englewood, which issued only two demolition permits in 2012, has seen houses scraped at breakneck pace in recent years, with 75 demolition permits issued since the beginning of 2015. Though the process of replacing single-family homes with often much larger stock has gotten less attention than gargantuan new apartment complexes, city planners are taking notice.

Scrape-offs — older houses demolished and replaced by developers — are making their way from Denver into the suburbs. This duplex on South Elati Street in Englewood, built by developer Gilda Zaragoza, replaced a 1950s bungalow with a notably taller pair of homes worth a cumulative $1.3 million. DAVID GILBERT

a local housing activist and administrator of Denver FUGLY, a Facebook page where metro-area residents discuss the impacts of rapid growth. “Let’s say I bought my house in 2003 for $200,000,” Evans said. “My property taxes back then were $580 a year. Now, my taxes have tripled. If I’m someone on a fixed income, that can be a real problem.” Renters in neighborhoods with lots of scrapes can fare even worse, Evans said. “There’s not a lot of help for people who have been there long-term,” Evans said. “If people don’t own, they’re out. Renters get bumped out and now they’re driving farther, and traffic gets worse. If a thousand people who could walk or bike to work start driving, that’s a thousand more cars on the road.” Scraping by To developers, scrape-offs are a boon to neighborhoods with aging housing stock that is often smaller than current consumer demands. “The homes that are in the neighborhoods that people want to live in are not suitable for today’s lifestyles or energy requirements or transportation needs or aging-in-place needs,” said Dave Jackson of Jackson Design Build, which has built scrape-offs around the metro area. “We’re replacing it with current modern architecture. The prior architecture is often an 800-square-foot ranch. When you have to pay half a million dollars for that piece of ground, you can’t build an 800-square-foot ranch on it. It can be razed and replaced with a three- or four-plex.” Jackson acknowledges that scrapeoffs can change the feel of a neighborhood. “We’re seeing a generational turnover, and there are a lot of people who like contemporary styles and those who don’t,” Jackson said. “Some people would call it gentrification. I don’t know. I’m really not a scholar. Some see it as revitalizing old neighborhoods, some people see it as people being pushed out, and that’s true. It’s happening.” Much of the criticism around

scrape-offs on the Denver FUGLY page centers around the aesthetics of scrape-offs, which are often of a new architectural style called Transitional Urban Contemporary, typified by a boxy appearance and often bright colors. “Some people hate them, and I’m aware of that,” said Gilda Zaragoza, a developer who has built 10 of Englewood’s new homes, and has eight more currently in the works. “But they tend to sell faster than traditional homes.” Zaragoza said the size demands of modern buyers can push the margins of a lot. “They’re trying to maximize the square footage of these homes on a smaller lot, and that does sacrifice some of the yard,” Zaragoza said. “It’s challenging trying to have a yard, garage, and as much square footage as possible.” Zaragoza sees what she does as a labor of love. “I’m trying to provide a good home to families,” Zaragoza said. “I want to build a good product that helps the town. I’m trying to help property values. I hope people see that a lot of passion goes into it.” Zaragoza said she determines where to buy and build by looking at a block’s potential for further scrapes in the future. Though much of her activity in Englewood — and those of other scrape-off developers — have been focused on the town’s northern border with Denver, she recently completed a home south of Hampden on South Elati Street in which she bought a two-bedroom, 720-square-foot bungalow built in 1953 and replaced it with a towering duplex, each side of which features four bedrooms and four bathrooms, and is for sale for $645,000 per side. Does Zaragoza want to see all of Englewood scraped? “Well, there are a lot of older homes that won’t be scraped because the lot sizes are too small,” Zaragoza said. “But I think Englewood is a wonderful town now. The reality is that this is happening because of demand. As long as people want to move here and want these products, developments will continue to happen.”

National Western Stock Show prepares for January events Iconic trade show brings animals, visitors, fun to north Denver

Sunday March 25 12 - 4 p.m.

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Each January for the past 112 years, Western has been the preferred fashion in Denver during the run of the National Western Stock Show. This year’s festivities kick off Jan. 6 and the schedule of event wraps up Jan. 21. During that stretch of time about 400,000 men, women and children will push through the turnstiles to watch or take part in events including rodeos, equestrian events, stock judging events and auctions. While entertainment draws a lot of attention, much of the event’s focus is on stock shows. There are judging competitions for horses, cattle, sheep, swine, goats, llamas, bison, yaks, poultry and rabbits. Ten livestock associations hold their national shows at National Western. There also are a number of livestock sales where millions of dollars change hands as prize animals are sold to new owners. The first wave of the thousands of animals will begin arriving at the National Western Stock Show complex as the new year is ushered in, because stabling the animals requires coordination due to the hundreds of animals coming to the show and the limits on stable space. The cattle barns are the temporary home for animals being shown or put up for auction. When it is time for them to be shown, the cattle are brought inside, filling the barn with the splash of water and the hum of clippers as each animal is washed, blow-dried and combed to get them looking their best. In one barn, a sign over a wash area for cattle identifies it as “The Bovine Beauty Shop.” Once that breed’s shows are complete, the animals are either auctioned off or loaded up to be taken home, so the stalls are cleaned and made ready

Parker files suit against county over trash facility Proposed recycling/trash transfer facility disputed BY TABATHA DEANS STEWART TSTEWART@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Town of Parker has filed a civil lawsuit against Douglas County in an effort to stop the building of a recycling/trash-transfer facility on the town’s northern border. At the center of the lawsuit is a proposed plan by Mountain Waste and Recycling to build a recycling/ trash-transfer facility on county land bordering Parker property. The facility would be located west of Chambers Road, north of Grasslands Drive and just southeast of Dove Valley Regional Park. The area has been zoned for this type of development since 1998. Parker residents across Chambers Road from the proposed facility have opposed the plan, citing fears that their property values will decline and traffic will increase, as well as concerns over noise, bad smells, and rodents and birds. Parker town officials are on the side of their residents. “This is just the wrong place for this type of facility,” Mayor Mike Waid said in a news release issued by the town on Dec. 21. “The town therefore felt it had no choice but to take this action.” Douglas County officials received a

The Town of Parker has filed a civil lawsuit against Douglas County over a proposed recycling/trash facility on the northern border of Parker, West of Chambers Road and Grassland Drive. TABATHA STEWART copy of the lawsuit but said they had not had time to review it. “We are in receipt of the lawsuit challenging the processing of an application for a trash transfer facility. We will respond within all legal deadlines,” Lance Ingalls, Douglas County

attorney, said the afternoon of Dec. 21. According to Waid, Douglas County is in violation of an intergovernmental agreement between the county and Parker that was established in 2002, which includes a Comprehensive Development Plan, agreed upon by both parties, regarding future development. A town urban service area and community separation buffer areas were established as common ground. The agreement mandates compliance with applicable town regulations and

SUIT SEEKS ‘INJUNCTIVE RELIEF’

In the lawsuit, the town seeks the following: “Injunctive relief to enjoin the County’s processing of and potential approval of a recycle/trash transfer facility which is a general industrial use. The Town also seeks to require the County to specifically perform the mutually binding and enforceable comprehensive development plan and related intergovernmental agreement by prohibiting general industrial uses within the Town’s urban growth area.”

While the bulk of Centennial Airport is in unincorporated Arapahoe County, the southern end of the airport is in Douglas County. Because of that, “Douglas County was required to refer the proposed (trash-transfer) facility to our planning and development office for review,” said Deborah Grigsby Smith, public information officer for the Arapahoe County Public Airport Authority, which governs the airport. Airport Executive Director Robert Olislagers said the airport has no standing with respect to the county’s use-by-right position. “However, any use of land that creates a hazard to flight operations, such as a bird attractant, is a major concern to us,” he said. “Douglas County may own the land,

but the airspace above it is a very different story.” In a letter to Douglas County’s department of community development, dated Dec. 19, an airport noise and environmental specialist noted that site plans call for an indoor recycling/transfer facility. “However, if the site becomes a bird attractant it could pose a hazard to aircraft arriving and departing the Airport environment,” the letter signed by Dylan Heberlein states. The letter also states the proposed development falls within a restricted development area. “The RDA is intended to prevent incompatible development in the close proximity of the Airport, it will see numerous overflights and the associated effects at all hours of the day.”

Healing garden opens at Castle Rock hospital New space combines powers of nature and health care BY JESSICA GIBBS AND CASEY VAN DIVIER JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Patients, doctors, nurses, visitors and any other people who need spend time at Castle Rock Adventist Hospital now have another place to pass the hours. The hospital has opened a new “healing garden,” located between its Briscoe and Alexander buildings. The campus already includes a community garden, but this latest project is meant specifically as a place of healing, said the Castle Rock Adventist Hospital Foundation Chief Development Officer, Valerie Ross. The area features a year-round fountain, a sitting wall, paths lined by trees, a play area for children, a grassy area and a playhouse. Although it is open, planting will not take place until the spring. “We have 60 trees going into that space, and of course it’s all very Colorado style — low maintenance, low water, all approved by the Town of Castle Rock,” Ross said. Providing a tree requires a $1,000 donation. Donors will be honored with a silver leaf on a metal tree that an artist is creating for the space. Anyone interested can contact Ross at Valeri-

eRoss@centura.org. “All donors for the garden are going to be recognized,” Ross said. “When you walk through it’s going to tell a story of the community support we’ve had through the garden project.” The donor tree won’t be the only artwork showcased at the garden. Dianne Heidbreder, who served on a committee formed to help bring the garden project to fruition, has also donated a sculptural piece of art with her family. The sculpture, a hibiscus, is in memory of her late husband. His two-year fight against the pancreatic cancer that ultimately took his life helped inspire Heidbreder to get involved with the garden. She knows firsthand what it’s like to spend days, sometimes up to a month, at a hospital, often out-of-state, while a loved one receives care. Days revolve around waking up, going to the hospital, finding ways to fill the time, staying until dark and then returning to your hotel, she said. “It’s your daily thing,” she said. “Then you come back to the hospital and you do it again and you do it again, every day, you know. It’s very difficult and it can be depressing.” A healing garden, she said, is something every hospital should have. “When you’re in a hospital setting, sometimes you’re here on your worst day and having to sit inside is difficult,” Ross said. “We actually believe it’s very evidence-based to combine nature with health care.”

This sculpture, depicting a hibiscus, is in memory of Dianne Heidbreder’s husband, who died of pancreatic cancer. The artwork can be found at the Castle Rock Adventist Hospital’s new healing garden. COURTESY PHOTO Ross said the hospital hopes the garden will provide an oasis for people undergoing experiences like that of Heidbreder, and for families at the hospital for happy reasons, such as the birth of a child. It will also be used for events, like yoga classes, sports

therapy or simply a lunch spot. “Everyone loves this project, so it’s been really easy to engage the community,” Ross said. “Churches, civic groups, they’re all excited about how we can use this garden for creating more partnerships in the community.”

y echo, my shadow, and me.” If you were to walk into my house right now, that’s about all you would see. “We three, we’re all alone, living in a memory.” I am not going anywhere, and my furniture wasn’t garnisheed. (I have been waiting six years to use that word — “garnisheed.” I am not entirely certain I have used it correctly, but close enough.)

The place is going to be recarpeted, so everything is neatly stacked in the studio. Except for whatever I need every day. It turns out what I need every day isn’t very much. The major appliances sit on hardwood flooring, so they are still in place. All that’s left in the master bedroom is the bed and the television. The computer is still on duty in the office. But the guest room is as bare naked as it was

when I moved in here in 1993. The look of the house right now is unexpectedly wonderful. The sight lines are quiet. There are no unneeded objects anywhere. There were very few to begin with. Curmudgeons generally don’t collect figurines, gimcracks, or doodads. The house as it is won’t be featured in anyone’s Parade of Homes. But I like it, and I wish that it could stay this way. Of course, I need a couch,

and living room chairs, and my bookshelves in my office, and what else? I have been in homes that looked like three-dimensional scrapbooks. Family photographs everywhere, mementos of travel, endless end tables, and decorator pillows. I have decided to rely more and more on my memory than on objects to remind me of memories.

tendent, when they all claimed to be happy with the present interim superintendent Kane? The new board listened to an informal poll taken on Facebook by an organization of Douglas County parents. Their poll was 600 people and guess what? 469 were in support of a national superintendent search. How unbiased do you think that poll was? The board will get the answer when they ask all the citizens of the county to fund their liberal

agenda for our public schools. Maybe all the liberals in the county will be willing to dig into their own pockets and pay more taxes when that election occurs. At forums, the winning candidates were all in favor of rushing that tax election. Do the math. How many people voted for the school board? How many will vote in a tax election? Possibly more than voted for the liberal school board. Mary Ann McCoy Lone Tree

o lately I have been testing a theory, and I have to tell you it has been so much fun. I have written about this quote before, I have been familiar with it for more than two decades, and I have read it hundreds of times, and I wanted to finally test the concept and see if it really did work. WINNING “If you see someone withWORDS out a smile, give them one of yours.” — Zig Ziglar Seems simple enough right? We have all probably experienced this effect in one way or another. Someone catches our eye or attention and we smile, they smile back. Or someone smiles at us, and most times we smile back ourselves. Probably Michael Norton basic human nature. Now, we have all probably experienced the other side of that too, meaning we offer a smile and get greeted with a scowl. Or someone smiles at us and we have no idea who they are, but they must want something from us, so we duck for cover, head down, and try not to make eye contact, let alone smile. So I had this bright idea that I would actually test this theory over a period of time and in different locations. I happened to be vacationing in Hawaii and each morning would go for a power walk, a run, or a casual, less intense walk.

Year-end tax planning crucial before law changes

here are only a few days left to impact your tax planning for 2017 before the new tax laws take effect next year. With the new GOP tax plan now signed into law, there are many concerns about the changes and how FINANCIAL they will affect you. STRATEGIES The differences in what you will be able to deduct or itemize have changed substantially. Therefore, this could make 2017 your most flexible tax year with little time to take advantage of a Patricia Kummer few year-end strategies. Meet with your tax advisor as early as possible to prepare for these changes. Consider funding an IRA account. Most employees who have a 401(k) plan have forgotten they might also be eligible for an IRA as well. If you are Married Filing Jointly and only

one spouse has a 401(k) plan, the other spouse may be eligible for a $5,500 deduction or $6,500 if over the age of 50. Check the IRS limits for Adjusted Gross Incomes that range from $186,000 to $196,000. Those with two qualified employer plans with incomes under $99,000 can both write off the full contribution. This may be enough to reduce other factors, such as eligibility for the education tax credits, another item not expected to be available after tax reform takes place. Self-employed individuals may be eligible for a SEP (Simplified Employee Pension). These limits can be substantially higher than an IRA based on business or consulting income. Most plans allow for deductible contributions similar to 401(k) limits — which for 2017 are $18,000 with an over age 50 catch-up provision of another $6,000. For higher-income earners, you may also be eligible for a profit-sharing contribution up to 25 percent of your

positive was unwavering. The bigger I smiled, the more people turned away. It was more like 10 percent of the people smiled in return and 90 percent of the people kept their head down and blazed through the mall with purpose, no time for that smiling nonsense. Like everyone else I did have a purpose for being at the mall. There was a gift I needed to pick up. Still smiling and feeling good, maybe not as good as I felt on vacation, but my attitude and resolve were strong. And as I approached the counter to pay, there were three women working the registers. I greeted them with my ridiculously over-exaggerated smile and a hearty Merry Christmas, and they stood looking at me for a moment like a deer caught in headlights. For a split second I thought that maybe I had overdone it just a bit. And then, they all looked at one another, turned back to me, smiled, and said “Thank you.” They thanked me because they said almost everyone that had been in the store so far that day had been rude, and they were not feeling the Christmas love or appreciated at all. So I shared my little testing of this Zig Ziglar theory, and they returned my smile and shared with me that no matter who else came in, they would smile back, even a ridiculous over-exaggerated smile filled with Christmas cheer. A little win but a huge victory. It’s almost the new year. We can go into the new year with a frown and avoid making eye contact with others, or when we see someone without a smile, we can make a commitment for the new year to give them one of ours. I would love to hear your smiling story at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we can help just one other person to smile, it really will be a better than good week and an amazing new year. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

And yes, it was Hawaii so most people should be happy or smiling anyway. However, you would be surprised at how many people just didn’t appear happy at all and a smile was the furthest thing from their face. As I walked or ran, I started to smile. And not just smile, an over-exaggerated smile, kind of like eating a banana sideways. I made eye contact with people from 20 yards away coming in the opposite direction. And whether they were smiling at the time or not, by the time we were side by side, more than 90 percent of the people smiled back and even gave me a warm “good morning,” or “Aloha.” On the other hand, 5 percent of the people never made eye contact, and about 5 percent made eye contact but didn’t smile back. I will take 90 percent as a win. I tested the theory in the stores I have gone to as well. The grocery store, the hardware store, walking down main street, and the results were exactly the same. Now maybe, you could argue that my ridiculously overexaggerated smile caught people’s attention. And maybe their smile back was just the beginning of a snicker or laugh, but it was still a smile. Not only did people smile, they engaged in conversations, asked questions as if I worked at the store, and wished me a good day or merry Christmas. Again, 90 percent success rate. My final test came this weekend, the weekend before Christmas. The venue I chose was the mall. Yikes. I tried to smile while finding a parking spot and as I came close to seeing one open up, I was outmaneuvered by a faster car with a driver who wasn’t smiling, but rather sneering in victory. After finally getting lucky and finding a pretty sweet spot, I entered the lions’ den. My attitude was good, my confidence high, and my resolve to smile and be

business profit up to $59,000, depending on your business structure. Contribution limits increase in 2018 by $500 on 401(k) and similar plans. It is crucial to get with your tax or financial advisor immediately to see what plans and limits you are eligible for. Consider maximizing your Health Savings Accounts for the year if they have not already been funded. You may be eligible if you had a highdeductible health insurance plan starting no later than Dec. 1. An individual can contribute a tax-deductible amount of $3,400 with a $1,000 catch-up provision for anyone over age 55 by Dec. 31. Households with one spouse on family coverage can contribute $6,750 plus the catch-up for over age 55. The penalty for not having health insurance this year is $695 per person or 2.5 percent of adjusted gross income.

are specialty acts booked to perform during breaks in the rodeo. The rodeo events are in the Coliseum while, at the other end of the National Western complex, the Events Center will be equally busy as the site of horse competitions for a number of breeds and styles. There will be shows and competitions as well as activities that include the Grand Prix jumping event, an evening of dancing horses and a daily schedule of riding and performance competitions. A new equestrian event this year is the National Western Horseman’s Challenge that will be held Jan. 8-10 in the Denver Coliseum. The event is designed to provide a challenging, educational and entertaining opportunity for local and national eques-

trians to be involved in the stock show within a growing and evolving discipline. Horse and rider teams will be faced with various obstacles and tasks testing their confidence in each other. The press release on the National Western Horseman’s Challenge stated it will offer schooling time followed by competition phases including individual timed practice rounds, a team competition and individual speed challenges. Obstacles and tasks will vary to accommodate all levels and ages of riders and horses. The show events are spread among a number of facilities. Stock show activities are centered at the National Western Stock Show Arena and Hall of Education near 46th Avenue and Humbolt Street, the Events Center at 1515 E. 47th Ave. and the Denver Coliseum. For information, tickets, the event schedule and event locations, call 303-297-1166 or go online to nationalwestern.com.

master plans in future development. Parker officials claim the town master plan and the county master plan do not allow general industrial uses at the location proposed for the facility, and allowing the project to go forward would have negative effects on the residents of Parker. “The approval of this application by Douglas County will have significant negative impacts on existing neighborhoods, professional, medical and corporate offices, regional parks, open space and airport...” the town’s news release states. “Beyond the noise and smell problems, the Town believes there is a significant safety issue. Trash facilities like the one proposed can attract hundreds of birds, and birds are a major problem for airports such as Centennial Airport. The federal Aviation Administration currently recommends that the location of municipal solid waste landfills and trash-transfer facilities should not be within five statute miles of an airport.” The release further states “Such an action is necessary to stop the processing of this application, in order to protect the very schools, neighborhoods and businesses that were supposed to be protected by the Intergovernmental Agreement and the Comprehensive Development Plan.” Scott Eden, CEO of Mountain Waste and Recycling, has said building the facility would be a great opportunity

to bring recycling to the residents of Parker, and reduce the amount of waste that ends up in the landfill. “I have been a serial recycler since 1988. It’s expensive to recycle, and if you dedicate yourself to being someone who wants to divert stuff from the landfills, you have to build facilities that can help solve the problem. We’ll be able to offer recycling to a whole new area of Parker,” Eden recently told Colorado Community Media. Eden had not seen the lawsuit as of the afternoon of Dec. 21, but commented on the news release issued by the town. “We have not had a chance to review the lawsuit, so we can’t comment on it,” he said via email. “However, we have seen the press release from Parker, and we can emphatically say that Parker has all of its facts wrong regarding the characteristics of the recycling and transfer station. In the press release, Parker complains about the possibilities of noise, odor and pests — totally ignoring that this will be an enclosed facility with all operations occurring indoors. None of those complaints are valid. “Specifically, the press release focuses on birds and the proximity to Centennial Airport. Even if birds were an issue in connection with an indoor facility (it’s not!), we note that Denver International Airport has three OPEN landfills well within the ‘five-mile buffer zone’ that the FAA recommended in a 2010 study; and that airport is operating in total safety.” The news release said this is the first time Parker has filed a civil action against Douglas County since the town’s incorporation, which occurred in 1981.

Arrest made in 2010 slaying of teacher in Elbert County Daniel Pesch, 34, charged with killing Kiowa High teacher Randy Wilson BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Elbert County Sheriff ’s Office announced it has arrested Daniel Pesch, 34, in connection with the 2010 death of Kiowa High School teacher Randy Wilson. Pesch was arrested on Dec. 19 in Littleton by Elbert County investigators, according to a sheriff ’s office news release. Pesch was charged with first-degree murder, resisting arrest,

obstructing an officer, and attempt to escape. Further details were withheld per a court order. Wilson’s body was found with his hands tied behind his back, a belt around his neck and a bag over his head in a field in northern Elbert County on June 14, 2010, according to a Denver Post article from the time. Wilson taught physics and Pesch calculus at Kiowa High School for a decade. Wilson, who was originally from Montana, was 52 when he was killed, according to an obituary. He was the father of five sons, and had taught in schools around the country and as far away as the South Pacific.

Now Hiring Tellers

Wilson was last seen at a gas station in Bennett, heading back to Kiowa from visiting family in Montana, on the night before his body was found, according to a Colorado Community Media story from the time. His car was found abandoned in the same area as his body, near the intersection of county roads 194 and 53, a remote area about halfway between Bennett and Kiowa. Investigators in 2011 interviewed two people who may have spoken to Wilson at the gas station, but no arrests were made at the time. Pesch appears to have moved to the south metro Denver area in recent months from Summit County, according to social media posts. A LinkedIn profile appearing to belong to Pesch

shows he worked as a chef, lived in Summit County until earlier this year, and held a degree from the University of Central Florida. Pesch’s Facebook features pictures of his young daughters, as well as a variety of furniture and children’s toys posted to a local yard sale page in late November and early December. Court records show that eviction proceedings were filed against Pesch and his partner in September 2017. Pesch was charged with several crimes in Breckenridge in November 2016, including criminal possession of ID documents from multiple victims and illegal possession of a weapon, though the charges were dismissed. It is unclear whether Pesch knew Wilson.

Outdoor ice rinks offer recreation, family fun

Front Range provides a setting for every personality BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Finding something to do outdoors in the cold winter months can be a tricky proposition, especially if it doesn’t include heading to the mountains for skiing or snowboarding. But in every part of the Front Range area — from urban shopping districts, to small towns, and even mountain communities — there’s a chance to tap into a bygone era and get some fresh air at the same time. Taking to the ice at outdoor skating rinks. “One of the most common remarks is from parents in awe that their children would choose a healthy outdoor activity over their more typical couch potato tendencies,” said Meg Denbow, director of communications at Boulder Creek Events, which hosts Boulder and Louisville outdoor rinks. “There are countless opportunities available for families to participate together in a Colorado winter experience without

having to drive all the way to the mountains.” We looked at three different options for ice skating during the winter. Skating in the city OPTIONS: The Rink at Belmar 464 S. Teller St., Lakewood 303-742-1525 www.belmarcolorado.com Through Jan. 28 Southwest Rink at Skyline Park 16th and Arapahoe, Denver 303-534-6161 www.downtowndenver.com Through Feb. 14 COMMENTS: The Belmar Rink is entering its 13th season, and the 7,000-square foot outdoor ice rink located on the Belmar Plaza has been a popular skating stop for all ages. “We get about 20,000 skaters a season who take to the ice here,” said Janelle Hinton, marketing director at Belmar. “It’s amazing to see how many people come, and it’s because of the whole experience they can have here. Visitors can skate, grab a bite to eat, and see a movie, all in the same place.” The busiest times are evenings and weekends, but with such warm weather this season, Hinton said

visitors are hard pressed to find a bad time to skate. But the best is during the night, when all the decorations light up. “The environment at the rink is so beautiful, and has such great energy,” she added. “We have many repeat customers who come back over and over during the season.” Small town memories OPTIONS: WinterSkate at Boulder Teahouse Plaza 1780 13th St., Boulder 303-442-2826 www.bceproductions.com/winterskate Through February WinterSkate at Historic Downtown Louisville Steinbaugh Pavilion 824 Front St., Louisville 303-604-1010 www.bceproductions.com/winterskate Through February COMMENTS: The Boulder rink is celebrating its 19th year, and the Louisville location is starting off its 14th season. The Louisville location features 6,500 square feet of ice, as well as all the components of a classic Christmas. SEE SKATING, P17

n 2017, the year of “resist,” no genre of music embraced the fractured culture like rap and hip-hop. The genre’s artists were all over the place, some delving into the political and sociological, while others tried to help us forget through catharsis and dancing. And now, some of COMING the biggest names ATTRACTIONS in rap are coming together for what was supposed to be a significant first — the first New Year’s Eve on the Rocks concert. The event was schedule to be held at Red Rocks Amphitheatre and orgaClarke Reader nized by La Contes, Feyline, Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom and KS107.5, the evening features Migos, Young Thug, Lil Yachty, Post Malone, Dizzy Wright and King Green (of RDGLDGRN). However, weather predictions indicated the high for New Year’s Eve would be in the low 20s, causing the concert to be moved to the University of Denver’s Magness Arena, 2250 E. Jewell Ave. in Denver. Migos had a breakout hit at the end of 2016, with “Bad and Boujee,” and that hot streak carried into 2017, with the release of their most popular, and best, album, “Culture.” The trio — Quavo, Offset and Takeoff — made several of the year’s best music videos, with “T-Shirt” and “Get Right Witcha.” Young Thug has been one of the most dynamic and eccentric voices in hip-hop, and after releasing multiple albums in 2016, he released the country-influenced “Beautiful Thugger Girls” in June. The blending at first appears more than a little odd, but the end result is one of the year’s most enjoyable listens. Lil Yachty and Post Malone both had a remarkable year as two of rap’s most notable and up-and-comers. In particular, Post Malone’s “Rockstar” has dominated the Billboard chart for eight weeks. This show is an opportunity to see some of the best in the rap game take the stage. Doors open at 5 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 31, and for more information and tickets, visit www.nyeontherocks.com.

SKATING FROM PAGE 16

“WinterSkate is more than a mere skating rink — it’s a full experience for all five senses,” said Meg Denbow, director of communications at Boulder Creek Events, which hosts both locations. “As families huddle around the open fire to warm their hands, the aroma of warm apple cider and the tune of classic holiday favorites waft through the air; in the distance, the clip-clop of the horse-drawn carriage can be heard approaching the pavilion as children gather in line to purchase hot chocolate from the concessions window. “It’s a sweet little Rockwellesque experience for families of all ages.” With a set-up like that, it’s not difficult to understand why these rinks have become the site of many family memories. “It’s really amazing watching the kids grow up and come back to WinterSkate year after year, having so much fun with their friends and family,” Denbow said. “In fact, much of our WinterSkate staff is made up of local teenagers who have grown up skating at this little neighborhood rink.”

A quick trip to the mountains OPTIONS: Evergreen Lake 29612 Upper Bear Creek Road, Evergreen 720-880-1391

Evergreen Lake is the world’s largest Zamboni-groomed outdoor ice rink at 8.5 acres.

The Rink at Belmar is right in the center of the of the district, which means its perfectly located for shopping, a bite, or a movie, before or after skating.

The lake is home to 11 pond hockey rinks and a huge public skating rink. “People have been coming up here for skating since the 1920s,” said Brad Bednar, recreation supervisor at the Lake House. “There’s so much to do here, including skating at night and broom-

ball, in addition to hockey.” The rink is a natural one, which means that it is entirely weather dependent. Due to the warm winter, Bednar said the lake will hopefully open for skating at the end of December or early January. Once it does, visitors can also stop by the Evergreen Lake House, to enjoy hot chocolate and snacks from the concession area near the giant stone fireplace. “We’re a family-friendly place, and people can bring sleds and strollers for their kids,” Bednar said. “It’s all about the setting up here. This is a real lake, surrounded by the mountains and trees. There are fish swimming under skaters’ feet.”

The Kentucky-based band has provided me with several top-notch concerts over the years, and their blending of folk, funk, prog rock and pop is best experienced with a bunch of other people singing along.

Opera Colorado opens doors to new home in Englewood Office, rehearsal facility now housed in handsome vintage brick building BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The festive evening of Dec. 14 celebrated the start of a new partnership between Opera Colorado and the City of Englewood, as the more-than30-year-old opera company invited guests to visit its new administrative office and rehearsal facility at 4121 S. Navajo St. (west of the new Oxford Station apartments). Englewood Mayor Joe Jefferson happily sliced through the yellow satin ribbon, held across the doorway that separates the two parts of the 7,000-square-foot, 1930s industrial warehouse. He said “this takes us to a whole new level — the success of nonprofits is our success,” citing Englewood’s long cooperation with the Museum Outdoor Arts. Many in the community thought the interesting structure would be scraped for more apartments, he noted. Development was completed in late 2016 by Brue Baukol Capital Partners, in partner-

Opera Colorado Center, the newv administrative and rehearsal space for Opera Colorado, is in the 1930s brick building with the bow-trussed ceiling at 4121 S. Navajo St., Englewood.

Open house at the new Opera Colorado Center featured a ribbon cutting: Left to right: Kevin O’Connor, Board Chairman; Linda Olson, Englewood District 2 Councilmember; Joe Jefferson, Mayor of Englewood; Paul Deckard, Managing Director of Opera Colorado; Greg Carpenter, General Director of Opera Colorado; Randy Penn, Executive Director of Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce.

ship with Littleton Capital Partners, who have won awards in Littleton for careful renovation of several historic buildings. The Opera Center stands between apartments and the railroad, ready for a new life. Greg Carpenter, General Director of Opera Colorado, said this was the fulfillment of a 10-year vision. Board

Chairman Kevin O’Connor spoke about how very helpful the City of Englewood’s manager and staff were in working with tax credits and expediting the permitting process so the old building could be retrofitted for its new role. Speed was needed since the company’s lease at its former Belcaro site was up. The opera’s business office

was housed in the Oxford Station apartment complex for several months, while the new space was designed and built out. Because of the excellent natural light, all office walls and doors are clear glass. The main entrance is at the north end of the building, which is reached by driving through the road separating the apart-

ment units. It features “beautiful natural light, exposed brick and a bow-shaped truss ceiling,” according to Opera Colorado’s Tamara Vallejos. She said the staff is really happy with the light after many years in a basement office. Rehearsals have been held at the Loft at Ellie Caulkins Opera House in downtown Denver, where Opera Colorado usually performs. Now artists can ride the light rail to Oxford Station and enjoy the spacious south part of the new Opera Center, devoted to rehearsal use. Opera Colorado’s next production is a world premiere of “Steal a Pencil for Me,” which will be presented Jan. 25 to 30 at the Wolf Theatre, Mizel Arts and Culture Center at the Jewish Community Center, 350 S. Dahlia St., Denver. We visited briefly with Sahar Nouri, Opera Colorado’s chorus master and repetiteur, who talked about the dramatic story of a couple, Jaap and Ina Polak, Dutch Jews who escaped the Holocaust, surviving imprisonment at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. Tickets are available at operacolorado.org.

Bloomberg View’s Shira Ovide wrote an article about the technologies that have engulfed our lives. Said she is “falling out of love” with them. Me too. Partly because of technologies and the ability to scrutinize, to hack, to bully — anonymously and privately — we live in a treacherous world. A former local secondary school staff member is being investigated for allegedly recording clandestine cellphone videos. Ovide calls the voice-activated speakers from Amazon “creepy.” I would add vacuum cleaners that wander around on their own. And iPhones. Yup. It’s 2017, and I still don’t have a cell phone.

Maybe if I were (much) younger, I would be just as inextricably linked to a phone as everyone else is.

Stanley, Stanton stood out Seniors from Cherry Creek and Chaparral are offensive and defensive players of the year BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORDOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Cherry Creek’s Dimitri Stanley and Jacob Stanton of Chaparral headline the 2017 Colorado Community Media All-South Metro Football Team. Stanley, the all-around senior wide receiver, was selected as the Offensive Player of the Year. Stanton, a senior linebacker, was honored as the Defensive Player of the Year. The 26-player All-South Metro team was selected by CCM’s sports staff, with input from area coaches. Players were eligible from schools in the Littleton Public Schools District, all public and private schools in Douglas County, and Englewood and Cherry Creek high schools. Stanley, the 6-foot, 178-pound University of Colorado commit, did a little bit of everything for the Bruins. He was a wide receiver, occasionally ran the ball, played some cornerback, returned kickoffs and punts, and was the team’s punter. “I could have had a better year for the amount of targets I had but the time I actually had the ball I did pretty well,” said Stanley, whose father Walter played two seasons at CU and 11 seasons in the NFL. “It was better than last year definitely and it was kind of the way I

wanted it to go.” He finished with 81 receptions for 1,192 yards and 20 touchdowns. He had 1,526 all-purpose yards. As a junior, Stanley caught 65 passes for 970 yards and 13 touchdowns. Despite being double and triple covered at times, Stanley made several highlight reel receptions. “We work on those in practice, and practice makes perfect,” he said. “I strive to make those catches in a game, and when I do, that just makes it that much better.” Stanton was the leader of the Chaparral defense and had 128 total tackles with 19 tackles for losses, including four sacks. He intercepted one pass, had three pass deflections, caused seven fumbles and recovered two. The 6-foot-2, 220 pounder was also a force on special teams, with two blocked punts and two blocked field goals. “With all the hard work I put in during the off-season, I came out and had a way better season,” Stanton said. “It was a pretty decent year for me. “I didn’t set any goals for myself, I just wanted to go out and have a good season. So I guess that would be a goal of mine and I reached that for sure.” Stanton averaged 11.6 tackles a game as a senior and 9.1 in four seasons at Chaparral.

Linebacker: Jacob Stanton, 6-2, 220, senior, Chaparral Had 128 tackles and four blocked kicks. Linebacker: Nick Clancy, 6-1, 195, senior, Douglas County Finished season with 96 tackles including 6.5 sacks. Linebacker: Issac Wilson, 6-2, 190, junior, Chaparral Had 109 tackles, including 13 sacks among 24 tackles for losses. Linebacker: Ethan Fraiser, 6-1, 215, junior, ThunderRidge 11 tackles for losses among total of 109 tackles. Defensive back: Justin Boyd, 6-1, 175, junior, Legend Ball hawk had seven interceptions and 30 tackles. Defensive back: Zach Wilson, 5-9, 159, senior, Rock Canyon Had five interceptions, 10 deflections and 45 tackles. Defensive back: Chad Muma, 6-3, 200, senior, Legend Returned from injury and had 77 tackles, three sacks and an interception. Defensive back: Chris Ditzenberger, 6-2, 172, senior, Cherry Creek He was in on 65 tackles, had four interceptions and four deflections SPECIAL TEAMS Punter: Issac Power, 6-2,185, senior, Ponderosa Averaged 41.3 yards with 12 of his 20 punts inside the 20-yard line. Place kicker: Brian Brogan, 5-8, 160, soph., Valor Christian Had 60 kicking points, going 36-36 on PATs and on 8-9 field goals. Returner: Brelan Griffin, 5-8, 155, senior, Highlands Ranch Averaged 27.1 yards on kickoff returns and 19.6 on punt returns.

That’s already the most wins in three seasons. The Sabercats were 7-16 during the 2016-17 season and 5-19 in 2015-16. Chase Hettinger, a 6-foot-5 senior, leads this year’s team

Elsa Litteken was third in the 100 backstroke with a time of 56.24 seconds. • Boys basketball coach Earl Boykins saw the Huskies’ seasonopening four-game winning streak snapped with a loss to Liberty

on Dec. 15. The team, which has displayed balanced scoring, had two games scheduled before the holiday break. Rock Canyon • Easton Allred ran 22nd at the Nike Nationals cross country meet Dec. 2 in Portland, Oregon, with a time of 15:36.8. • The Jaguars’ cheer team was second in the Class 5A contest at the CHSAA Spirit Championships, which were held Dec. 8-9 at the Denver Coliseum. • Jessica Beckwith placed second in the 100 butterfly at the Coaches Invitational girls swim meet held Dec. 15-16.

Last season Valor won its first six games before losing 6-0 to Regis. Valor had its season-opening three-game winning streak halted on Dec. 16 by Regis but the Eagles only lost 2-1.

CHSAA will soon end mysteries of ‘next year’

ait until next year” is a familiar catchphrase for many sports fans. The next year is approaching and Colorado high school enthusiasts OVERTIME are waiting for the Colorado High School Activities Association’s Legislative Committee to approve several proposals which Jim Benton could go into effect for the 2018-2012 cycle. There are 15 committee reports and additional proposals waiting for approval at the Jan. 5 meeting. It’s a new year and time for some changes, especially the reports and proposals for football and baseball that have drawn the most attention. The football committee report outlined two-year alignments for leagues that are

more logical than the waterfall format we’ve been stuck with for the past two seasons. Waterfalls are striking to view in the mountains but not as a football league setup. Also the football committee endorsed expanding the 5A playoffs to 24 teams, and one proposal backed by the committee would align football with the National Federation calendar, which would mean practice could start Aug. 6 rather than Aug. 13. Postseason dates would not be changed. Another proposal that hopefully will be adopted is to lengthen the baseball season from 19 to 23 games during regular season for classifications other than 1A and 2A, which play district tournaments. This would be a longoverdue change since it has been 52 years since Colorado has increased the maximum number of baseball games allowed. Spring weather in Colorado

is fickle. Decades ago when I was coaching youth teams, I always said the last week of February was usually nicer than the weather in March, April and even May. So the extra games could be played in tournaments or something called doubleheaders, which used to be more common years ago. Other Northern states that sanction baseball allow a maximum of more regularseason games than Colorado. For instance, North Dakota allows 36 games on 23 dates and Idaho rules say teams are not to exceed 24 games. There are many more proposals and committee reports that need to be passed, including the volleyball committee’s new bracket format for the state tournaments, cross country recommending a “run six athletes and score four” format, and creation of Foundation Benefit Contests for all sports to allow schools to raise funds for their programs.

Local Focus. More News.

Swimming rankings Mountain Vista swim coach Rob Nasser once again has been busy compiling rankings of individual girls swimmers and teams in hopes of gaining more publicity for the sport. In the Dec. 20 rankings, Fossil Ridge and Fairview are ranked first and second in Class 5A with Cherry Creek third, Arapahoe fourth, Rock Canyon eighth, Mountain Vista ninth and Castle View/ Douglas County 10th. Heritage is third in the Class 4A rankings, with Valor Christian fourth and Highlands Ranch eighth. Individually, Arapahoe junior diver Franny Cable has the best 5A score recorded in the state so far at 506.85 points, with Castle View/Douglas County’s Sam Tamborski second with 465.45 points and Ralston Valley freshmen Isabel Gregerson third with a 458.80 score. There are several local swimmers ready to challenge with second place times.

Horizon’s Charlotte Fieeiki’s time of 55.85 is second in the 100-yard backstroke, Jessica Beckwith of Rock Canyon has the runner-up time of 56.41 in the 100 butterfly and Delaney Smith of Arapahoe has clocked the second fastest time of 2:03.33 in the 200 IM. Cherry Creek’s 200 medley relay team is second with a 1:46.83 clocking but all the above times need to be faster to catch the leaders. In Class 4A, Heritage’s Kylie Andrews has recorded the top times of 23.76 and 51.29 in the 50 and 100 freestyle events. Valor Christian’s Ella Kirschke is tops in the 200 IM with a 2:06.96 clocking. Valor also has the fastest time in the 200 freestyle relay of 1:36.85. Jim Benton is a sports writer for Colorado Community Media. He has been covering sports in the Denver area since 1968.

SCOUT FROM PAGE 7

How do you think this project has impacted your local community of Castle Rock and the nearby areas? Were you able to learn more about your own community by doing it? Most high schoolers I talked to had no idea what getting a job really meant, and how impactful it is for not only them, but others around them.

Throughout these 13 years, I have gained leadership skills, initiative, and learned respect for my environment, others and myself. I continued on to be a troop leader because I am passionate about empowering girls to be a leader, and go for their dreams.
