Metro area schools look to later start times Two of the largest districts consider making schedule shifts

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Research says that a later school start time positively impacts alertness, mental health, wellness and behavior in high school and middle school students, which means students are better prepared to learn.

Some area school districts have already implemented later start times. Others, including the Jefferson County and Douglas County districts, are exploring the possibility of making the move.

The most recent district to commit to the switch is Littleton Public Schools, whose board of education voted Dec. 14 for later school start times for middle and high school students beginning with the 2018-19 school year.

The decision to change school start times followed months of research analysis, parent presentations and extensive opportunities for parent, student and staff input through public forums, open houses and surveys.

“If we truly rely on what we believe is compelling scientific research, the question is: Why wouldn’t we do it?”

Transportation schedules are one challenge that school districts must consider when weighing possible changes in start times.

SHANNA FORTIER said Brian Ewert, superintendent of Littleton Public Schools. “The research is pretty clear about how much sleep adolescents should get, and more important is when they sleep.”

According to Dr. Lisa Meltzer, National Jewish Health adolescent sleep expert, melatonin is a hormone released by the brain that controls the internal clock and prepares the body for sleeping. But during puberty, the timing of the melatonin release is delayed by up to two hours. This makes it nearly impossible for teens to fall

‘A game-changer’ While Ewert said the shift will create some challenges, such as additional childcare needed for some SEE SCHOOLS, P10

And up to

asleep early.

This shift is also seen in the morning hours, showing that when a teen wakes at 6 a.m. that is equivalent of an adult waking at 4 a.m. An adolescent’s brain is biologically asleep at that time.

A 2014 study by the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that middle and high schools delay start of classes to 8:30 a.m. or later.

“Doing so will align school schedules to the biological sleep rhythms of adolescents, whose sleep-wake cycles

begin to shift up to two hours later at the start of puberty,” the report reads.

A National Sleep Foundation poll found 59 percent of sixth- through eighth-graders and 87 percent of high school students in the U.S. were getting less sleep than the recommended 8.5 to 9.5 hours of sleep on a school night.

“Chronic sleep loss in children and adolescents is one of the most common — and easily flexible — public health issues in the U.S. today,” wrote pediatrician Judith Owens, in a policy statement from the American Academy of Pediatrics.

A 2013 study by the Hanover Research Institute also found that “school districts could increase student safety and boost adolescent academic success by instituting later start times for middle and high school students.”

“It was courageous because it does create hardships,” Ewert said of the Littleton board’s decision. “But I absolutely believe it was the right decision to make and I applaud the board for putting into perspective why we’re doing this.”

‘Do-my-best’ approach leads to victory at Senior Olympics Sally Robertson trained at medical clinic in Castle Rock

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

She’s 80 years old, and a newly minted Olympian athlete.

Sally Robertson of Deer Trail, spent several months in 2017, starting at age 79, launching a consistent exercise routine for the first time in her life at the Castle Rock Adventist Hospital HealthFit Gym, a fitness-based clinic.

Robertson took her new life track one step farther when she entered the Wyoming Senior Olympics in August.

“It was a little bit scary,” she said of the competition.

“I needed to just focus on what I could do and do my best.”

Robertson’s “do-my-best” game plan worked — she won her 80-and-over division in the deadlift at 125 pounds.

Her journey to the Senior

Sally Robertson stands with her husband, Bob, at HealthFit Gym in Castle Rock where she trained before the Wyoming Senior Olympics.

JESSICA GIBBS Olympics began in March when Robertson’s husband, Bob, started training at HealthFit in Castle Rock.

Bob considered himself

an active person who got good exercise from working around the house, but at 79 years old, housework was no longer enough.

He began struggling to get out of a chair, so sought the help of kinesiologists at HealthFit, where he learned his IT band — the spring-

like tissue a person uses when getting out of a chair — was locked up. Trainers prescribed exercise.

“I was getting out of a chair without anybody’s help after a week,” Bob said.

As Bob started his fitness journey, Sally learned more about programs offered at HealthFit Gym and decided to join classes for herself. She began working on heavy, weight-bearing exercises to lower her blood sugar and improve bone density.

Sally led a career in counseling and computer programming, describing her lifestyle as “pretty sedentary” before joining HealthFit Gym. She’d never liked repetitive workouts, or exercise at all, she said, but found weightlifting to be fun.

“The weight bearing was slow and deliberate,” she said.

Over the months Sally gained more and more strength, and the idea of competing at the Senior Olympics came to her. She’d SEE OLYMPIAN, P29

School board outlines criteria for permanent superintendent Traits and themes reflect what board and community desire

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Using feedback from more than a dozen community meetings and an online survey, the Douglas County Board of Education has established the key characteristics it is looking for in a permanent superintendent.

“We are so incredibly thankful to the 3,000-plus educators, administrators, support staff, parents, students, business leaders and non-parent community members who provided feedback by completing an online survey,” David Ray, president of the school board, said in a news release. “In addition, many others took time out of their busy schedules to attend community input meetings which were held across the school district last month. The outpouring of community support and input has been critical to our search process.”

The school board has selected Ray and Associates, a school executive search firm based in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to conduct the national search.

Last year, Ray and Associates conducted a superintendent search for Jefferson County Public Schools and it is currently working with Boulder Valley School District to find its superintendent.

The application process for the Douglas County superintendent position will close on March 12. Finalists will be identified in early April, according to the school district.

In early January, interim Superintendent Erin Kane announced that she would apply for the permanent superintendent position. Kane was hired in

WHAT THEY’RE LOOKING FOR Per the school board, the permanent superintendent must meet the following 10 criteria: • Promotes a positive and professional environment that includes mutual trust and respect among district employees and the board.

• Is strongly committed to a “student-first” philosophy in all decisions.

• Possesses excellent people skills and can present a positive image of the district; is willing to listen to input and is a decision maker.

• Inspires trust, has high levels of self-confidence and optimism and models high standards of integrity and personal performance.

• Has experience recruiting and maintaining exceptional staff for the district and schools.

• Has experience as a classroom teacher or student support position in a school.

• Is a strong communicator in speaking, listening and writing.

• Has previous experience that will benefit the long-term financial health of the district, including successful experience in passing bond or mill levy increases.

• Can develop and communicate a vision of quality education for the future of the board, staff and community.

• Has knowledge of emerging research and best practice in the areas of curriculum/instructional design and practice.

For a full list of traits that the school board and community are looking for in a superintendent, visit www.dcsdk12.org/superintendentsearch.

2016, at an annual salary of $240,000, after former superintendent Elizabeth Fagen resigned and took a position in the Humble Independent School District in Texas. In January 2016, the school board extended Kane’s contract through the 2017-18 school year.

In December, the board voted 7-0 to hire a firm to conduct a national search for the permanent position.

School board renews charter contract for online school

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Douglas County School Board’s decision to renew the charter contract of Hope Online Learning Academy received a standing ovation from dozens of parents and teachers in the audience at a Feb. 6 meeting.

“When I look at Hope and my observation of the way our teachers and mentors interact with students and the students interact with them, I have two words to tell you about Hope, they are differencemakers,” Eric Peters, an employee of the school, said during public comment.

The alternative school for at-risk students has an online program and 26 community learning centers across 12 school districts. The school opened in 2005 and Douglas County became its authorizing district in 2007, allowing the

school to operate independently but still receive state funding. Douglas County has one community learning center that serves 58 students. The majority of the school’s 2,172 students are from Aurora, Jefferson County and Denver.

For the past seven years, Hope Online has been under watch by the Colorado Department of Education for low performance. Last April, school and district staff appeared before the state board of education to finalize an improvement plan, which outlines restructuring of the school’s learning model, recruiting quality educators and evaluating staff.

The school’s performance ratings are grounds to revoke or not renew its charter contract, according to district documents. The school board voted to renew the contract until June 2019 to give Hope Online time to enact its latest improvement plan.

Colorado emergency responders provide disaster aid nationally Assignments offer increase in experience, assurance of assistance here if needed

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When hurricanes make landfall or wildfires take off, and if earthquakes topple buildings or terrorists attack, it’s emergency responders who are tasked with protecting the public.

In the event of large-scale emergencies, what unfolds is a multi-jurisdictional response drawing personnel from across the nation — including many from Colorado.

Hurricane Irma, Hurricane Harvey and the Thomas and Lilac fires, two of the massive wildfires that plagued California in December and January, were just some of the most recent natural disasters to which Denver metro agencies deployed crews.

It’s a call to action they’re happy to answer when the job is bigger than any one agency can handle, officials say, but there’s also a benefit to the local departments that respond.

The first priority is offering aid in the form of manpower, equipment and other resources, agencies said. What they get in return is real-life experience and training they can use should a similar tragedy strike at home.

Rod Tyus, a captain for West Metro Fire Rescue, also heads up the FEMA-funded Colorado Urban Search and Rescue Task Force, one of 28 task forces across the country that respond to local, state and national events. West Metro Fire Rescue sponsors the program in Colorado, which has more than 200 members from 23 agencies in the state.

The task force had back-toback deployments over the summer, first in Texas for Hurricane Harvey and then in Florida for Hurricane Irma.

“We had over 100 members, close to 100 members deployed this past summer to hurricanes,” Tyus said.

During Hurricane Irma, Eric Hurst of South Metro Fire Rescue deployed to an Air Force base in Georgia, although he was working as a communications unit leader for crews in Florida. His focus was making sure all the responders could communicate with one another.

West Metro Fire Rescue shared this photo to its Facebook page of firefighters working near the Thomas Fire in California.

South Metro Fire Rescue’s Eric Hurst works alongside the ATF to check satellite phones before giving them to law enforcement officers headed to Florida for Hurricane Irma.

“There are various types of radios, as far as the frequency range, that they can talk on,” he said. “Where I was, my team was coordinating law enforcement resources from across the country. We had different federal agencies that were coming together for the first time.”

Hurst can still recall his chilling two-day drive from Colorado to Georgia. As he traveled on a nearly empty southbound interstate toward the hurricane, the opposite lanes stood in a gridlock as locals attempted to evacuate.

Pumps ran dry at gas stations, he said, and shelves were emptied of food.

“As a responder going into a disaster you are part of the disaster, essentially. You are not immune from not being able to get fuel,” he said, describ-

ing the trip as eerie. “We take a lot of things for granted in our daily lives. That the gas station is going to have gas and the grocery store is going to have food.”

Despite the challenges in deploying to emergency zones, Hurst said the trip was well worth the trouble because of the lessons he learned.

Battling California blazes Lt. Patrick Richardson with Castle Rock Fire and Rescue said crews from their department spent three days working the Lilac Fire in San Diego before working 11 days on the notorious Thomas Fire.

The Thomas Fire was the largest wildfire in California history, burning in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties. The U.S. Forest Service announced the blaze was

100 percent contained as of Jan. 12, more than a month after it began. What caused the Thomas Fire remains unknown, but before its end, it burned 281,893 acres, destroyed more than 1,063 structures and damaged 280 more.

The Lilac Fire started three days after the Thomas Fire in San Diego County. It burned 4,100 acres, destroyed 157 structures and damaged 64.

Richardson, with more than 20 years of experience in wildland fires, described the Thomas Fire as the “largest, most complicated and most expensive” fire in the state’s history.

“We were protecting homes that were in excess of $15 million apiece,” he said.

The crews will have ample opportunity to use the skills they learned in the California fires along the Front Range, Richardson said, which he describes as notorious for its wind-driven fires.

“A lot of people will look at wildland fires here on the Front Range and say, ‘Oh, it’s just a grass or weed fire.’ But if you ask a rancher what’s out in that field, they see feed,” Richardson said. “We can save that landowner quite a bit of money and feed for his livestock.”

That task is easier when firefighters have learned to stay calm and focused on the job through deploying to events like the Thomas or Lilac fires, he said.

The Castle Rock team, like personnel from West Metro Fire and Rescue that also worked the Thomas and Lilac

COURTESY PHOTOS

Fires, were assigned to what they call “mop up.” In essence, the job means cleaning up after the fire has passed through an area to make sure it doesn’t reignite, or, working ahead of the fire to clear out fuel.

“The vast majority of firefighting is not hero work. It’s dirty work. It’s grunt work,” Richardson said.

Mike Johnston, an engineer with West Metro Fire Rescue, and Jonathan Ashford, a firefighter and paramedic with the agency, have both deployed to numerous natural disasters in the past, but each time, they learn something new.

“It’s kind of mixed emotions,” Johnston said, “because we enjoy doing what we’re doing and you’re working hard and you’re sweaty and you’re dirty and you stink but you’re all doing it together. You have a huge feeling of accomplishment when you persevere through all of that.”

Ashford said they learn something new each time they deploy, one more reason the trips are worthwhile.

Overall, Tyus said, the system is reciprocal. Colorado agencies respond to other states’ emergencies knowing that the favor will be returned if there’s ever a local catastrophe, such as the Colorado floods in 2013.

“We needed it in 2013, Texas needed it last year and Florida, and Puerto Rico needed it,” Tyus said. “It means a lot to be able to work with each other and be able to serve the nation and be able to help people in need.”

Nutritionist aims to offer holistic healing Tori Taggart opened Rooted Health & Wellness in January

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A new business in Castle Rock aims to help people battle chronic illnesses and autoimmune diseases, lose weight or simply feel better, mostly through nutrition, but also through evaluating a person’s lifestyle as a whole.

Tori Taggart, an integrative clinical nutritionist, opened Rooted Health & Wellness in January after previously working from her home, coffee shops or doing house calls as an independent nutritionist. She now works from a downtown Castle Rock office.

Her clients come to her for numerous reasons and for different levels of care. Some want to try a new approach to health care, and others want to supplement the care they receive from doctors with Taggart’s services. If clients do receive care through other doctors, Taggart said, she doesn’t recommend they stop following doctor’s order, but tries to complement their current health regimen with additional recommendations.

Her goal, Taggart said, is to identify the root causes behind a person’s condition. Oftentimes it’s related to

their diet, she said, but could also be a result of poor sleep, lack of exercise, unmanaged stress, or all of the above.

Taggart has new clients complete a 13-page intake form asking about their lifestyle, what they eat, how they cook, and if they exercise, take medication or have any medical conditions. She also meets with them for a 90-minute interview. Between the two, she tries to build a timeline leading to a person’s ailments and makes recommendations based on the information.

“I like to meet people where they’re at,” she said. “I don’t want to put people on a diet. I don’t like that concept, that you shouldn’t enjoy your life.”

With some clients, she encourages them to start by drinking more water or eating more vegetables. Others are looking for more drastic changes, she said, like trying a paleo diet or going gluten free.

Teegan Braun, a 33-year-old Castle Rock mother of four, said Taggart has helped her in times she was ill but also worked with her 10-year-old daughter, Jayden, who is diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease, a thyroid condition that can lead to fatigue, pain, depression among other symptoms, according to the Mayo Clinic.

Braun said her daughter mostly suffered from brain fog and anxiety.

By working with Taggart, she’s now gluten and dairy free, and she focuses on eating healthy fats and foods low in sugar.

Darin Narayana, who moved to the U.S. from India nearly 50 years ago, still eats a largely Indian diet, which he said is lacking in certain nutritional areas. Indian food is often low in protein and heavy in carbs, he said, which doesn’t bode well for his diabetes.

Taggart showed him how to adjust his recipes, like adding quinoa to his rice, and offered 15 different options for protein. Despite having worked with doctors and two other nutritionists in the past, Narayana said Taggart offered common-sense advice he hadn’t gotten elsewhere.

“She’s the best because, my goodness, she listens, and her approach is more holistic,” he said.

Taggart said her passion for the business stemmed from personal experience.

Years of fatigue and pain that resulted from digestive issues also led to anxiety, Taggart said. She was eventually diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease and celiac disease and was told steroids would be her best

option. Medication, however, didn’t help, and today she focuses on healing through a holistic approach.

“I manage it completely through diet, exercise, sleep and stress management,” she said. “I figured out that what I ate made a huge impact in what I felt and to this day I’m not on any medications for my condition.”

She follows a paleo diet and sticks to organic vegetables and moderate amounts of grass-fed proteins, she said. No grains. No dairy. No soy.

“That isn’t for every one of my clients, that’s for sure,” she said.

Like her own care, she tailors her recommendations for each client to their wants and needs, drawing from personal experience along the way.

“I’m not a doctor. I don’t diagnose people. I don’t cure conditions like a doctor does, and I would of course never encourage a person to get off their medications or not follow what their doctors says,” Taggart explained.

“My goal is to find the root cause behind what is causing dysfunction in people.”

Water providers taking lack of precipitation in stride Planning has metro-area supplies in solid shape

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Five years ago, the Denver area got one of its largest February winter storms on record, when 15.9 inches of snow fell between Feb. 2 and 4.

Fast-forward to Feb. 26, 2015, and Denver set an all-time snowfall record of 22.2 inches, breaking the mark set in 1912.

But in 2018, extended forecasts predict mostly dry conditions with only light, brief snowstorms for the next two weeks.

The lack of snowfall has been especially disappointing for the skiers, snowboarders and snowshoers in the state, but it also leaves a lot of people concerned about the water supply.

But it’s not as bad as one would think — water providers plan for years in advance for Colorado’s dry times.

“Colorado is very dependent on Mother Nature for its water supply,” said Lisa Darling, executive director of the South Metro Water Supply Authority. “You always want to make sure you’re planning for no matter what Mother Nature hands you.”

The South Metro Water Supply

Highlands Ranch received an average of eight inches of snow in 2015, in a storm that blanketed the Denver metro area.

FILE PHOTO Authority is an umbrella organization with 13 water provider members that represent about half of Douglas County and about 10 percent of Arapahoe County.

Currently, Denver Water’s reservoir system, which serves about 1.4 million people in the City of Denver and the surrounding suburbs, is 90 percent full, said Dave Bennett, the director

of water resource strategy for Denver Water.

Because of this, which can in part be attributed to the water conservation efforts of area residents, it’s unlikely there will be major water restrictions come this summer, said Peter Goble, a research associate at the Colorado Climate Center, a recognized state climate office located in the

Department of Atmospheric Science at Colorado State University. The center provides services and expertise related to Colorado’s climate.

However, there is only a 30 percent chance of ending this snow season with above-average or average snowpack, Goble said. And it’s when the mark is missed for years on end that the shortfall becomes a problem, he added.

There should be some level of concern, Goble said, “but it could be much worse.”

One thing that people must keep in mind is that Colorado is a semiarid region, meaning it is not a wet area, but also not a desert, Bennett said.

On average, the Denver area receives about 16 inches of precipitation a year.

“This has been an unusual year because the amount of snow falling in different parts of the state has been inconsistent,” Bennett said. But “we’re watching it very closely and can respond as needed to any water shortages we’d be facing.”

Precipitation in Colorado is valuable and variable, Darling said. This means there will be an element of uncertainty when predicting accumulation of precipitation, she added. But consumers should have confidence in their water provider, Darling said.

SCHOOLS FROM PAGE 2

elementary students, changes to the athletics schedule and reorganization of the transportation schedule, he thinks these obstacles should not get in the way of “doing the right thing for our adolescents.”

“This one absolutely is in the best interest of our kids,” Ewert said. “It wasn’t about adults, it was about kids.”

Ewert was involved in shifting the school start times when he was the superintendent of Englewood Public Schools.

Although the shift in Englewood five years ago was less about the research and more about being able to share staff between schools

when the new Englewood High campus was built, Ewert said after the first year they saw a positive impact on behavior, an increase in attendance and a decrease in tardiness.

“I just think kids are more awake and ready to engage in learning,” said Wendy Rubin, superintendent of Englewood Public Schools. “I think that the research is irrefutable — teenagers need more rest … it impacts brain development, social and emotional health and academics.”

Cherry Creek School District implemented later start times for their middle and high school students this school year. While Deputy Superintendent Scott Siegfried said half a year is too early to track performance, the district is participating in a study

with National Jewish Health to track changes in their students.

Siegfried said his district has seen better first-hour attendance and fewer behavioral problems. “This is truly a game-changer for kids and I would encourage anyone to pay some serious attention to it,” he said.

Pondering the shift Jefferson County Public Schools, Douglas County School District and Westminster Public Schools are all in the process of exploring later school start times for secondary students for future academic years.

Westminster is in the early stages with what James Duffy, chief operating officer, referred to as creating draft proposals, policy discussions, internal vetting.

Jeffco is a little further along as the district will be hosting a meeting in midFebruary to put a community task force together to examine the issue.

While Jeffco Superintendent Jason Glass said the brain science concerning sleep patterns for teenagers sparked this discussion, transportation issues offer challenges for a large district like Jeffco.

“There is a significant impact on transportation in the district,” Glass said, adding that traffic patterns and buses that run to multiple schools will need to be taken into account when working on a possible shift.

“We time out to the minute how long we want buses to run,” Glass explained.

“When you change something, it can have a cascading effect. It’s one of those

things that we’ll have to look at.”

Glass hopes the district can have a thoughtful discussion about the pros and cons of the issue.

The final decision would be made by the school board.

The research and changes that other districts have made also got Douglas County’s Board of Education to look at making a change. Staff is currently re-examining research and surveying stakeholders.

Both the Douglas and Jeffco districts are not looking to make the possible change until the 2019-20 school year.

“We want to go slowly, learn from our other districts before we jump in,” Douglas County School Board President David Ray said.

Suspects in series of auto break-ins arrested

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Two women who authorities say may be linked to at least 10 car break-ins in Castle Rock and surrounding areas were arrested by Castle Rock police on Feb. 8 after witnesses reported the suspects were attempting to break into a vehicle early that morning.

Moore Crystal Moore, 20, and Victoria Ovando-Reyes, 26, both of Aurora, are charged with aggravated motor vehicle theft, criminal trespass, theft and conspiracy.

According to witness accounts detailed in a news release, Moore and OvandoReyes attempted to break into a vehicle in the Crystal Valley subdivision about 8:46 a.m. on Feb. 8.

They drove away from the scene but

were followed by another witness, who observed them lose control of their car near the 1300 block of West Plum Creek Parkway, police said.

Authorities said the suspects then fled on foot and were picked up by a motorist on Plum Creek Parkway, when another witness saw them get into the vehicle and alerted police.

Officers were then able Ovando-Reyes to locate the vehicle and arrest Moore and OvandoReyes. Each was booked at the Douglas County Detention Center. Both remained in custody as of Feb. 9. Moore is being held on no bond for her outstanding warrants. Bond was set at $5,250 for her new charges, according to the jail’s online inmate database. Ovando-Reyes is being held on a $2,500 bond.

Moore, who allegedly drove the suspects’ car, was also charged with reckless

driving, leaving the scene of an accident, driving on a revoked license and possession of a Schedule II narcotic. She had two warrants for her arrest from other agencies.

Police determined the car allegedly crashed by Moore and Ovando-Reyes was stolen and displaying stolen plates.

Inside they found evidence tied to at least 10 car break-ins.

Investigators believe there could have been additional break-ins and are asking residents to check their cars and call the Castle Rock Police Department at 303-663-6100 if they believe they’ve been victimized.

Police say new technology aided officers in making the arrests. Officers used fingerprint scanners to identify Moore and Reyes while still on-scene and were able to communicate with a victim and witness using a live-audio interpreter on their phones.

The scanners are similar in appear-

ance to a cell phone, each unit costing approximately $1,700. Once a person’s fingerprint is scanned, they connect to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and FBI’s fingerprint databases. If there’s a match, that information is sent to an officer’s in-car computer.

“This is extremely useful when someone is giving our officers a false identity,” said Castle Rock Police Department spokesman Joe Cybert in an email response. “It saves a significant amount of time spent in the field and ensures the proper person is charged.”

Castle Rock Police Chief Jack Cauley also commended the use of technology in the arrest, and the help from the public.

“This was an excellent example of collaboration between members of our community and our police officers,” Cauley said. “The officers were able to locate the suspects within minutes of the 911 calls coming into our dispatch center.”

she said. They plan carefully “for that uncertain future.”

Overall, according to the National Integrated Drought Information System, as of Jan. 30, about 99 percent of Colorado residents live in areas experiencing abnormally dry conditions.

The remaining 1 percent — in a small section of Larimer County — live in the only area not in some degree of a drought. The driest areas are to the west and south of the Front Range.

The South Platte Basin, which serves the Front Range from Douglas County northward, is at 85 percent of its average precipitation as of Jan. 19, Goble said.

Although there may not be any water restrictions on consumer usage, there could be other environmental and recreational impacts attributed to the lack of snowfall, Goble said. These could include affecting river activities, such as kayaking or fly fishing because the rivers could be low, and a higher risk for fires.

“Some years are going to be dry, and some years are going to be wet,” said Bart Miller, the director of the Healthy Rivers Program for Western Resource Advocates. “Having drier years like this one raises awareness and helps people take an incentive to water conservation.” it can also influence the Legislature to try new things, Miller added.

For example, he said, look at House Bill 16-1005, also known as the rain barrel bill. It was signed by Gov. John Hickenlooper in May 2016 and allows Colorado homeowners to collect a total capacity of 110 gallons of rainwa-

“This new law will … connect people with their water usage more closely and encourage water conservation,” said Rep. Jessie Danielson, D-Golden, in a previous interview at the time of the bill singing. Danielson was one of the bill’s legislative sponsors.

“In our state, when it comes to water, even small efforts like this will add up to help us protect our most precious resource,” Danielson said.

Overall, people in Colorado have done a good job with being mindful of how much water they use, both indoors and outdoors, Darling said.

And no matter if in a drought or not, it’s important use water wisely all the time, she added.

“What you do today,” Darling said, “influences the amount of water that will be available in the future.”

Thank you for voting us a

lican Congressman Mike Coffman in Colorado’s 6th Congressional District, which includes Aurora, Centennial, Littleton, Highlands Ranch and part of Adams County, among other areas.

Crow has criticized Coffman’s vote for the GOP tax bill, which eliminated the tax penalty for people who don’t get health insurance. That move is expected to undermine the individual insurance market starting next year.

More than 22,000 people enrolled last year for coverage on the state exchange in Coffman’s district, which went for Hillary Clinton in 2016.

“People in our district recognize the progress we’ve made under health care. The fact that 20 million more people have health care matters — it matters a lot,” Crow said. “And under Trump, we are now moving in the opposite direction.”

Coffman encountered hoots and boos at town halls last year for his insistence that Obama’s health law be repealed, even though he eventually voted against the legislation. He insists that any replacement guarantee coverage for people with pre-existing conditions.

Coffman’s campaign manager, Tyler Sandberg, described the incumbent’s approach to health care as nuanced.

“His stance ultimately is about preexisting conditions. It’s something everyone can relate to,” Sandberg said.

“And if Democrats think they can hit him over the head with it, I think they’re going to be sorely mistaken.”

Democrats also are making health care a key part of their strategy in this year’s race to select a successor to Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper.

The Democrat last year worked with moderate Republican Gov. John Kasich of Ohio, lobbying Congress in an unsuccessful attempt to maintain the requirement that all Americans have health insurance.

A Republican field that includes Attorney General Cynthia Coffman and Castle Rock businessman Victor Mitchell is focusing on roads, education, immigration and spending limits. The Democrats, including Lt. Gov. Donna Lynne, a longtime health

Republicans on the campaign trail this year will be eager to tout the potential benefits of their tax cut plan.

Voters like Jeanine Limone Draut, a freelance technical writer in Denver, have something else in mind: health care.

Failed efforts by congressional Republicans last year to repeal former President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act exposed not only deep divisions within the party but also revealed core benefits of the law that millions of Americans now take for granted. Draut is tired of the attacks and the uncertainty surrounding the law’s future.

“As a small business owner, it just wreaks havoc on how you do business,” Draut, an independent, said of the on-again, off-again repeal talk from Republicans. “I don’t know if either party has a solution. My vote is pretty closely tied to my livelihood.”

Both parties are paying attention, especially after a better-than-expected enrollment season under the health care law. Democrats especially have used health care to go on the attack, and the issue is coming up in congressional races in California, Colorado, Michigan, Washington and elsewhere.

A Kaiser Family Foundation poll released in late January found health care as the top issue voters want congressional candidates to address.

Enrollment was especially robust in many of the states that operate their own insurance marketplaces, where enrollment periods were longer than on the federal exchange and promotional budgets were beefed up. Strong sign-ups came despite Republican attacks against the law and President Donald Trump’s administration taking several steps to undermine it, including cutting the federal sign-up period in half and slashing advertising.

California, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Maryland, New York, Vermont and other states with their own exchanges saw enrollment approach or surpass 2017 levels. Minnesota’s health insurance exchange set a record for private plans with an enrollment period that was more than two weeks shorter than in 2017.

California’s state exchange, the nation’s largest, has reported more than 1.2 million renewals for 2018 and an additional 342,000 new customers.

didn’t know Zackari Parrish. Not at all.

I know I have needed men and QUIET women like him my DESPERATION entire life. Not because of the fact that he was a good deputy, but because he was someone with a good heart, and a bright light in a world that often goes deeply cruel on me.

(I’m writing this in first person for a Craig Marshall reason.)

Smith I read about the 5K run/walk at the Douglas County Fairgrounds, and saw a picture of Parrish’s

wife and read what she said and sat there on the couch and cried.

By some design that I cannot explain, there have been just enough good examples in my life against the other kind, of which there are many (too many).

People do unthinkable things to people. Now and then, in the middle of it, someone appears, like Parrish, and reminds me that life is worth living.

There are times when I have thought otherwise. The morning I watched the Murrah Federal Building fall, and heard there was a daycare full of kids in it.

What happened in Los Angeles, my Los Angeles, after the Rodney King verdict.

The Turpin kids.

I have had my own moments with the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office. Back in my own darker days. Every single man and woman I met was kind to me.

“Jack,” wherever you are, thanks for being compassionate to a drunk.

In some countries, all I see is hate and evil and genocide, and there are no Parrishes, or if there are, they are swiftly punished or executed.

Syria now. Cambodia once. Uganda.

I wish there were more good people in America than there are. Our freedoms come with a gift card for the bad guys. I’ll take it over repression.

I read that Parrish “used humor to de-escalate tense situations.”

I do the same thing, only I am the tense situation. I don’t mean I am over here on pins and needles. I mean that

life’s curve balls and sliders get to me, and that’s when I contact Mark, or watch W. C. Fields or read Steve Martin.

Mark can turn almost any word into something else, just like Groucho, or take a couple of words and turn them into a brilliant, surreal, non-sequitur, like Steven Wright.

I have a number of saved movies, and before I turn off the lights at night, I watch 10 minutes of one that I may have seen a hundred times.

I don’t want to go to sleep — or try to go to sleep —with the news of the day on my mind.

I watch the same scene in “Sullivan’s Travels” over and over.

“Isn’t it about time?” to “Are we headed into recession?” The answer to both, in my opinion, is no. Markets don’t correct because of the calendar, and we are in the middle of a slow growth cycle, nowhere near the end of expansion.

Let’s tackle the first one regarding the length of time we have been in recovery with virtually no volatility.

When you look at the fundamentals of how stocks are priced it is clear to me that the upward trend is a response to double-digit corporate earnings and the potential for worldwide economic growth. Even though this recovery has been the longest on record, time in recovery is not a predictor of when it will end.

The U.S. recovery has been slow due to the impact of global economies climbing back to good health. When

or a strategic plan, “encouragement” is a key element of my anticipated success. I look for family, friends, business partners, clients, co-workers, and associates at all levels to live and work in such a way that we are constantly encouraging one another. It is just too easy to go negative on someone or something. It is too easy to find the faults in a project or program. It’s only easy to go negative if we don’t live with and work with the full armor of hope and encouragement.

How’s this for a question to ask your family, your company, or your organization: “Are we living and working with the spirit of hope and encouragement?” Now be truthful in your own response here as well, “Is my family, my business, or my organization living with the spirit of hope and encouragement?” How would you answer this question? How would others answer the question about you, your family, or your company? Would they see people who are life-lifters and encouragers, or would they see and feel a vibe of negativity?

As Bruce Springsteen wrote in his song above, “Working on a Dream,” the way we achieve our goals and realize our dreams is when our love makes it real someday. We all have dreams, our family members have dreams, our

our recession ended in 2009, Europe was still two years away from dealing with possible defaults on debt in Greece and almost seven years away from the potential demise of the Eurozone. It would be mid-2017 before the elections in Europe after the Brexit indicated other countries were not going to vote in favor of leaving the European Union and follow the lead from the UK. Then the effects of the work of the European Central Bank (ECB) could take hold and create enough liquidity to stabilize the Union.

Meanwhile the United States is tightening the money supply through rising interest rates. This caused a reaction from China in early 2016 when they devalued their currency, the yuan, throwing our markets into a brief downturn. Since then we have been enjoying nice upward trends with the rest of the world following suit. So that is a short primer on why the recovery is taking so long.

Now, how does that help us determine when we would head into reces-

friends have dreams, our associates and co-workers have dreams. Our job, our responsibility to one another is to lift each other up, and open those doors of hope with positive encouragement and love. Anyone can go negative, that’s easy. But it is the difference-makers in life who fill their families, their communities, and this world with hope and encouragement.

We all know someone very close to us who is working on a dream, don’t we? A dream to be cancer-free, a dream to beat addiction or have a loved one find sobriety, a dream to find a new job, a dream to start a new business, a dream for happy and healthy children, a dream of a loving and flourishing relationship, a dream of peace, and so many other dreams and goals. Let’s help them, let’s lift them up, let’s let our hope, encouragement, and love make it all real someday.

So how about you? Are you working on a dream? Do you know someone who is? Are you filling them with hope, encouragement, and love? I would really love to hear your sources of motivation and inspiration at gotonorton@ gmail.com. And when we let the doors of hope swing open wide on the hinges of encouragement and love, it really will be a better than good week.

sion again? It is important to understand where we are in the economic expansion cycle before we can determine how fast this cycle will come to an end.

According to Fritz Meyer, economist, “Bull markets end when the yield curve inverts. That’s not happened, and it may not happen anytime soon. The economy is strong. But key fundamentals are changing.” He goes on to state that this change brings opportunity.

According to William Greiner, CFA and chief investment strategist with Mariner Wealth Advisors, the market drawdown is being driven by three main fears: rising inflation; higher interest rates; and fear that the Fed may make a mistake. Any one of these could cause continued market volatility and we are currently facing all three.

Consumers have been spoiled by low inflation and investors have come to expect continued increases in their investment accounts. Both of these

conditions are showing signs of aging.

It is important to align yourself with a good strategy for navigating the changes in taxes, economic expansion, the rise of inflation and interest rates.

The right kind of diversification is extremely important in this environment. You deserve to have a guide to help you traverse these changes rather than piecing together information from the media. They don’t know you.

Program helps preserve Roxborough State Park

R

GUEST COLUMN

John Liberatore

oxborough State Park is a National Natural Landmark, a Colorado Natural Area and a National Archaeological District that has been established to protect the scenic beauty and resource diversity of the park and surrounding area. Because Roxborough State Park is considered by many as one of the “crown jewels” of the Colorado state park system, many visitors come to enjoy the park’s beauty, unique geology and rock formations, abundant and diverse flora and fauna, and the oneness they gain with nature during their hikes.

To minimize the adverse impacts being seen at the park as a result of increased visita-

tion and some of those visitors not recreating in a responsible way, Roxborough State Park has created a partnership with the national program Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics.

Through funding from nonprofit organizations, including the Colorado Parks Foundation and the Friends of Roxborough State Park, and additional support from Colorado Parks and Wildlife, the park’s staff and a volunteer naturalist team are implementing a comprehensive program to help all visitors learn about minimal impact hiking and recreation as part of the overall Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics initiative of “Leave No Trace in Every Park.”

volunteer naturalists are deeply committed to protecting and preserving the beauty of the park by educating the public through the Leave No Trace program. This program includes educating Roxborough visitors on the seven principles of Leave No Trace to help ensure they recreate in an environmentally responsible way. These principles are: (1) Know Before You Go, (2) Stick To Trails, (3) Trash Your Trash, (4) Leave It As You Find It, (5) Be Careful With Fire, (6) Keep Wildlife Wild and (7) Share Your Trails. The park is focusing on programs for the public, local schools, Junior Naturalists, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts and all park visitors.

Film gathering aims to inform, inspire in 12th year

Colorado Environmental Film Festival brings together creators from all over world

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

here’s no accounting for the twists and turns that bring creative people together, but the first meeting of filmmakers Haley Thompson and Tomas Zuccareno was all too fitting, in light of the work they would end up doing together — they meet at The Local Food Convergence in Aspen back in early 2016.

“We both wanted to make a movie about the next generation of farming, and sustainable and healthy food,” Zuccareno remembers. “We both recognized there was a problem in the farming communities we came from — that young people weren’t getting the support they needed to do this important work.”

Now, after two years of filming and editing, the pair are ready for the world premiere of their first film, “How We Grow,” which will take place at the 12th annual Colorado Environmental Film Festival.

IF YOU GO WHAT: Colorado Environmental Film Festival WHERE: American Mountaineering Center 710 10th St., Golden WHEN: Feb. 22 through 24 COST: Tickets range in price from $8 per person for a single film screening session to $50 per person for access to all film screening sessions all three days of the festival.

TICKETS: www.ceff.net The festival runs from Feb. 22 through 24 at Golden’s American Mountaineering Center, 710 10th St. About 56 films will be shown, some shorts and others closer to feature length, all of which are aimed at raising awareness of interconnected ecological, social and economic themes.

International and local filmmakers will be represented.

“Colorado is such a great place to host a festival like this, not only because of how active residents are, but because so many people are invested in protecting the environment,” said Nicole Bickford, festival director. “We want to show films that bring light to environmental issues, but also offer solutions and hope for the future.”

The free opening night event, SEE FILM, P21

The Colorado Environmental Film Festival is returning to Golden for its 12th year. This year, there will be 56 movies screened, all of which tackle important environmental issues.

he Denver home of violinist and jazz musician George Morrison was always filled with music, as his granddaughter Trudi Morrison remembers it.

That music was not only from the students who received lessons at the house, but from the jazz luminaries who stopped in — figures like Duke Ellington, Nat King Cole and Jelly Roll Morton.

“Denver was strictly segregated at the time, so touring musicians weren’t able to stay at the hotels. Instead, they stayed with us at Big Daddy and Big Mommy’s COMING house,” Morrison said.

ATTRACTIONS “Everyone knew who he was, and they still remember him. He was like Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny, all rolled into one.”

Morrison (1891-1974) made his first violin from a corn stalk, a piece of wood, and some string, and first Clarke Reader played publicly with his brother in mining camps in the mountains west of Boulder.

He married in 1911 and started “George Morrison and his Jazz Orchestra,” one of Denver’s first jazz orchestras. In 1920, he played a command performance in London for King George and Queen Mary.

To celebrate Morrison and other visionaries of African-American musical and cultural history, the Arvada Center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., is hosting The Legacy Show at 7:30 p.m. on Feb. 24.

The multimedia musical experience is anchored by music of African-American composers performed by violinist Tami Lee Hughes and pianist Byron BurfordPhearse. The program features classical music infused with a variety of styles, including spirituals, blues, gospel, hiphop, and jazz. Portraying cultural themes of the Antebellum Period, the Harlem Renaissance, the Civil Rights Era, and Modern Times, the program includes poetry and visual media projected onto a large screen, providing images of people and places thematically related to the music.

“As a classically trained violinist, I love traditional repertoire, but the music featured in the show is a fusion of all of the styles I heard growing up in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, including classical, jazz, gospel, spirituals, and blues,” said Hughes, whose artistic direction of the show is an extension of her debut solo recording. “As I researched music of African-American composers, I found a treasure trove of pieces rarely heard on the concert stage. Through The Legacy Show, I hope to share some of these works and celebrate the composers who SEE READER, P20

Project Linus to celebrate Make A Blanket Day Columbine tragedy sparked national effort to provide blankets to children going through traumatic times STAFF REPORT

Children going through traumatic times are gifted with the warmth and comfort of handmade blankets made by Project Linus.

Blankets are made and

donated to various outreach organization to assist and comfort children.

Project Linus will celebrate Make a Blanket Day 2018 from 9 a.m. to noon Feb. 17 at Pax Christi Catholic Church, 5761 McArthur Ranch Road, Highlands Ranch.

Fleece blankets will be cut and tied, while various stages of the quilting process are completed.

National Make a Blanket

Day started in 1999, after the events that took place at Columbine High School, according to the Project Linus website. The group found that it was suddenly in need of a large number of blankets. Project Linus chapters put on “blanket bees” all over the country and then sent those blankets to local chapters in Denver.

Because of the success of that effort, Project Linus learned that it had a

national network of people who could help and decided to have an annual Make A Blanket Day. Each chapter could host activities to promote Project Linus and increase the group’s inventory of warm cuddly blankets. According to the Project Linus site, National Make A Blanket Day nets 75,000 to 100,000 blankets.

have left a rich legacy through music we can all enjoy.”

In addition to Morrison, the performance will feature music from Duke Ellington, David Baker, Daniel Roumain, Kerwin Young, and more. But for this Denver-based crowd, Morrison’s work will be the most personal to hear.

Which is something his granddaughter understands perfectly.

“We have a family history of breaking racial barriers, and we all stand of the shoulders of those who came before us,” she said. “Big Daddy’s story is one of striving and thriving in a time of deeprooted segregation.”

Hughes did plenty of research when putting The Legacy Show, and she hopes concert-goers learn about the different voices and styles of music from different generations and backgrounds.

“The show is for everyone, but I especially like to see young people in the audience. There is distance between them and a lot of the history in the show, so the performance gives them context for understanding complex issues we are dealing with today,” she said. “I hope The Legacy Show inspires great conversations, including talks between people of different generations.”

While Majid Jordan is obviously heavily influenced by modern soul artists like Frank Ocean and Miguel, they add flourishes of electronic music that are all their own. Seeing and hearing how they translate all of this to the stage makes the show this week’s can’t-miss concert.

beginning at 5:30 p.m. on Feb. 22, will include a reception featuring light appetizers, drinks, opportunities to interact with local businesses and a special silent auction benefiting CEFF programs. Afterward, there will be a screening of the film “Chasing Coral” and awards ceremony, hosted by local activist and filmmaker (and former mayor of Golden) Jacob Smith.

Over the following days, films on a variety of subjects — ranging from deforestation and ocean health to wolves and, in the case of Jane Zelikova’s film, “End of Snow,” the effects of climate change on snowpack in the Western United States — will be shown. It premieres during the 7 to 9 p.m. session on Feb. 24.

“The film follows me, a climate change scientist, as I go on a journey to learn how snowpack is changing in the West and what changes we can expect in the future,” Zelikova explained. “The idea came from my own research on the impacts of dust on snowpack in the Snowy Range mountains in Wyoming.”

Many filmmakers, like Thompson and Zuccareno, will be on hand for their screenings, and available for discussions and meetings afterwards.

In “How We Grow,” which premieres at 7:30 p.m. on Feb. 23, Thompson and Zuccareno take a look at ambitious young farmers building community

around locally grown food in the Roaring Fork Valley of Western Colorado. It examines the characters and systems of farming through the themes of education, legislation, community, food access and micro-finance — in order to tell the story of how these farmers are able to create resilient food systems.

“There’s a lot stacked against these farmers and their communities,” Thompson said. “We hope the response to the film is that people are inspired to get their hands in the dirt and start working.”

For Zelikova, film is a way to bring the global challenge of climate change to people in a realistic, moving way. Stories help people connect to ideas and inspire them to tackle challenges, she added.

“As much as it feels overwhelming, there are solutions we can implement today, solutions that don’t require a breakthrough invention or new technology,” she said. “These solutions come from people who want to be good stewards of their land and manage in a sustainable way, in the process helping fight climate change.”

It would be easy for the films shown in the festival to be all doom and gloom, but Bickford said that’s why CEFF focuses on films that inspire, as well as inform.

“We’ve found that a festival atmosphere like this is great, because people really love to gather and talk about solutions after they see these kinds of movies,” she said.

“We want people to walk away empowered and know that they want to get involved.”

Jane Zelikova’s film, “End of Snow,” explores the effects of climate change on snowpack in the western U.S., and will be shown at the Colorado Environmental Film Festival during the 7 to 9 p.m. session on Feb. 24.

Dancers, musicians convey modern mythology ‘Aphrodite’s Switchboard’ shows varying outcomes of magical bid to foster love

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Garrett Ammon, choreographer/ director of Wonderbound contemporary dance company, has again collaborated with the Denver psychedelic folk band Chimney Choir (the two companies previously produced the popular “Boomtown”), to produce a new artistic creation: “Aphrodite’s Switchboard,” which appears in three area theaters to herald spring, Valentine messages and looks at assorted human relationships.

Described as “a full length evening of theatrical dance,” it will feature the company’s remarkable dancers and music compiled in a new album that features folk harmonies and instrumental melodies to create a landscape for masterful storytelling through Feb. 2, in conjunction with the versatile band.

That earthly landscape, set in the 1930s era, looks dreary to the gods on Mount Olympus, so they send Aphrodite, goddess of love, desire and

beauty — accompanied by Hermes (messenger of the gods and sometime trickster, with winged feet and helmet) — to bring love back to the world.

The goddess soon finds a job as a switchboard operator and begins to connect people — with varying results.

Ammon said the new project “pushed all of us into new territory while exploring themes that have captivated humanity through the ages. This production is a great example of the magical possibilities that arise through the collaborative process.”

The band’s Kevin Larkin speaks of “new composition techniques and orchestration.”

A cabin in Fairplay offered the musicians an opportunity to create new music, away from city distractions.

An exploration of conveying ancient mythological tales with contemporary music offered new experiences — and the first band production with Greek mythology as source.

Formerly known as Ballet Nouveau, Wonderbound’s company began to change with Ammon’s arrival in 2007 — and his penchant for using live music.

In 2012, the name Wonderbound and a symbol of a jumping red hare were adopted and the company moved its headquarters to Denver from Broomfield.

(Check the website for announce-

FEB 17-18 WONDERBOUND APHRODITE’S SWITCHBOARD

ments of performances and open rehearsals in this urban studio.)

Chimney Choir began in 2011 with guitar, banjo, mandolin and suitcase drum and have toured nationally, while developing “layers of electronics, live looping and percussion. They remain fascinated with folk music and traditions while they constantly evolve and experiment …”

Watch for the next Wonderbound production — with members of the Colorado Symphony — in April/May: “Madness, Rack and Honey.”

IF YOU GO Performances of “Aphrodite’s Switchboard” began at the Pinnacle Charter School Performing Arts Complex in Federal Heights and will continue in upcoming performances: Feb. 17 (7:30 p.m.) and Feb. 18 (2 p.m.) at the PACE Center, Parker, 20000 Pikes Peak Ave, Parker. Tickets: 303-805-6800, parkerarts.org. The final performance will be Feb. 24 (7 p.m.) at the Newman Center, 2344 E. Iliff Ave., Denver.

ittle things can make a big difference in a basketball game and in life.

Rock Canyon girls basketball coach Becky Mudd followed up on a good idea of creating a personal challenge for her players, and the game against Legend on Feb. 6 was designated the Small Actions-Big Changes game.

Each girl selected a cause, person, family or group to play the game in honor of.

The girls then had to OVERTIME commit to do a small action to support the person/cause they selected.

Sophomore Molly McEowen played for Alzheimer’s awareness, a disease that touches a lot of people, including her grandfather. For her action, Jim Benton she gave up eating lunch for a week and donated that money to Alzheimer’s research.

Sophia Kozmata’s grandmother passed away from Parkinson’s disease, so Kozmata played for Parkinson’s awareness and wore colored laces.

The senior forward shared what basketball meant to the family as they suffered with the disease.

Saving animals from puppy mills was the selected cause for sophomore guard Dana Weiss, who is a vegetarian to support animals and is vocal about the mistreatment of animals.

Several players got pledges for points, wrote cards and letters to people, did random acts of kindness, made donations, and wore special colored gear.

All shared their stories with the team about their causes, such as Charity H2O, breast cancer awareness, diabetes, pediatric cancer, the American Heart Association, pancreatic cancer, Dr. Jill Pechacek 29:11 Challenge, Make-A-Wish and the Pine Ridge Reservation.

Talking football Dave Logan and Ed McCaffrey worked five seasons together broadcasting Denver Broncos football games on the radio as the play-by-play announcer and the analyst, respectively.

I’m sure they probably talked a little about high school football, since Logan is the coach at Cherry Creek and three of McCaffrey’s four sons played for Valor Christian against Creek during that time.

McCaffrey, who gave up his analyst duties last season, is now the head football coach at Valor. So once again SEE BENTON, P33

Arapahoe’s Cable wins 5A state diving title Warriors finish fourth as a team in Fort Collins

Arapahoe junior Franny Cable made a big splash at the Class 5A Swimming Championships on Feb. 10 at the Eldora Pool Ice Center in Fort Collins.

She won the divining title, which helped the Warriors finish fourth

in the team standings behind state champion Fossil Ridge, Fairview and Regis Jesuit.

Cable, a runner-up last season, finished ahead of Douglas County/ Castle View senior Sam Tamborski, who is headed to the University of Iowa to dive next season. Cable had 531.45 points compared to 499.10 for Tamborski. “(Cable) was determined to win,” Arapahoe dive coach Jeff Smith said.

“She is a competitor and when she gets focused you better watch out.”

watched her daughter enter the competition, she said, and thought she could do it too.

Both Bob and her trainer, Alyssa Mallette, were immediately on board.

“I was thrilled. I was super excited,” Mallette said, explaining that Robertson was the first person she’d trained for the event.

Ahead of the Senior Olympics, Robertson Mallette could deadlift 115 pounds. It wasn’t until the competition arrived that she added another 10 pounds, winning her age group.

Robertson plans to return to the Senior Olympics and compete again in weightlifting. This time, she is adding new exercises into her training regimen, such as the squat and bench press.

Robertson is also training with the added challenge of an injury. In late 2017, she fell and broke her kneecap. Mallette said the injury hasn’t stopped her.

“She’s literally coming back from a broken kneecap and already doing things like squatting and deadlifting.

She’s a tough lady,” Mallette said.

Looking back, Robertson explained she enjoyed the competition and improving her fitness, but the experience, she said, was rewarding in more ways than one.

“My self-image is real different,” she said. “I’m not thinking of myself as an old person without control over what the future is going to be.”

The regular CHSAA season is ending and 24 teams will advance to the state playoffs. The top eight teams in RPI rankings get byes into the second round.

First-round games are scheduled for Feb. 20-21. Second-round and quarterfinals are set for Feb. 23 and 24. Frozen Four games are set for 5 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on March 5 at the Pepsi Center with the title game on tap for March 6 at the Pepsi Center.

18CW3011, Douglas and Ruth Ann Wood, 4036 Pleasant View Drive, Castle Rock, CO 80108 (James J. Petrock, Petrock & Fendel, 700 17th Street, #1800, Denver, CO 80202), APPLICATION FOR UNDERGROUND WATER RIGHTS FROM NONTRIBUTARY AND NOT NONTRIBUTARY SOURCES AND FOR APPROVAL OF PLAN FOR AUGMENTATION, IN THE NONTRIBUTARY LOWER DAWSON AND THE NOT NONTRIBUTARY UPPER DAWSON AQUIFERS, DOUGLAS COUNTY. 31 acres being Outlot D, Castle Oaks Subdivision, Filing 1, generally located in parts of the SW1/4SW1/4 of Section 21; NW1/4NW1/4 of Section 28; and NE1/4NE1/4 of Section 29, T7S, R66W of the 6th P.M., Douglas County, as shown on Attachment A hereto (Subject Property). Source of Water Rights: The Upper Dawson aquifer is not nontributary as described in Sections 37-90-103(10.7), C.R.S., and the Lower Dawson aquifer is nontributary as described in Section 37-90-103(10.5), C.R.S. Estimated Amounts: Upper Dawson: 2 acre-feet; Lower Dawson: 3 acre-feet (2.6 acre-feet per year of Lower Dawson aquifer groundwater was previously decreed in Case No. 16CW3141, and 3 acre-feet per year associated with Well Permit No. 66623 was not decreed in that case. The 3 acre-feet per year is being decreed in this case and will be withdrawn in combination with the amount previously decreed). Proposed Use: domestic, commercial, industrial, irrigation, livestock watering, fire protection, and augmentation purposes, including storage, both on and off the Subject Property. Groundwater to be augmented: 2 acre-feet per year of Upper Dawson aquifer groundwater as requested herein. Water rights for augmentation: Return flows from the use of not nontributary and nontributary groundwater and direct discharge of nontributary ground water. Statement of plan for augmentation: The Upper Dawson aquifer water will be used on the Subject Property for in house use in two residences. Each residence and well will withdraw 1 acre-foot per year for in house use (0.35 acre-feet), irrigation of 10,000 square-feet of lawn, garden, and trees (0.6 acre-feet), and stockwatering of up to 4 large domestic animals (0.05 acre-feet). Applicants reserve the right to amend the amounts and values without amending the application or republishing the same.

Sewage treatment for inhouse use will be provided by non-evaporative septic systems and return flow from inhouse and irrigation use will be approximately 90% and 15% of that use, respectively. During pumping Applicants will replace actual depletions to the affected stream system pursuant to Section 37-90-137(9)(c.5), C.R.S. Depletions occur to the Cherry Creek stream system. Return flows accrue to the South Platte River via Cherry Creek and those return flows are sufficient to replace actual depletions while the subject groundwater is being pumped. Applicants will reserve an equal amount of nontributary groundwater underlying the Subject Property to meet post pumping augmentation requirements. Further, Applicants pray that this Court grant the application and for such other relief as seems proper in the premises. (6 pages).
