MY NAME IS

DAWN GABRIEL

Counseling center owner takes therapy to the trails About me My husband, Chris, and I moved to Castle Rock seven years ago to raise our family of two very active boys, Joshua, 8, and Lucas, 4. I moved around a lot (Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, Indiana) up till I moved to Colorado after graduate school and married my husband who is a native to Colorado. We love “cabin camping” in Estes Park and hiking as a family.

My work I am a consultant/coach and owner of Authentic Connections Counseling Center (AC3) in historic downtown Castle Rock. I have been a licensed professional counselor for 15 years and have worked in a variety of settings including: college campuses, county jail, community mental health, psychiatric hospital, churches and moms’ groups. I started AC3 five years ago after my mom passed away from cancer and I realized life is too short and I wanted to live out my dream of a group counseling center.

A typical day of business starts at the counseling center (which is a cute little brown house) seeing clients, networking with other business owners either with chamber events or through Castle Rock Therapist Network, connecting with my team members one-on-one or all together for training or team building, talking with my mastermind group of other group practice owners, working with my “in training” therapy dog Kuna (Australian Labradoodle puppy), going on a trail therapy hike with a client or continuing education for myself to make me a better person and business owner.

My passion I am most passionate about providing a safe place for people to truly experience hope and healing, in a deep way. In today’s society, we are disconnected and there are not enough “spaces” for people to be truly honest and dig deep on finding the truth and letting go of the lies we tell ourselves in our heads.

With my consulting clients, I love working with other therapists to help them find freedom from what is keeping them stuck and watching them live out their purpose and passion. I specialize in what I love: integrating faith into private practice, building a team culture, networking, and trail talks during sessions conducted while hiking.

Challenges on the job The most challenging thing is honestly my own inner critic and trying to live out what I teach. As a business owner/entrepreneur we have to work hard at taming the inner roller coaster of running a business.

The rhythm of trying to balance all of what I do is hard at times as my profession is a very personal one and you have to be in the moment with people and connecting while at the same time running a business.

My hobbies I love hiking, I am a chai connoisseur (not a coffee drinker), currently training for a half marathon (I am a slow runner, but it is my self-care so I am not running to win the race), wine tasting and charcuterie boards with girlfriends, voracious reader, and eating Indian food (or any fun restaurant) with my husband.

My advice You always have a choice of what you focus on. Live fully IN SPITE of _____________ (anxiety, depression, grief, etc.).

Sheriff’s employee celebrates 45 years with office Lt. Larry Noble recognized by county commissioners during meeting

From left, Sheriff Tony Spurlock, Commissioner Abe Laydon, Commissioner Lora Thomas, Lt. Larry Noble and Commissioner Roger Partridge pose for a photo during a recognition of Noble. Noble began at the sheriff’s office about five years before Spurlock.

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When Lt. Larry Noble started working at the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office in 1975, there were only 14 employees there. Including the sheriff himself.

The county only had about 14,600 people, and during some shifts, there was only one deputy available to cover all 844 square miles.

“You could go a whole shift without there being a call for service,” Noble said.

Forty-five years later, a lot has changed in Douglas County and Noble has been there through it all. Five sheriffs, three sheriff ’s office buildings and countless residents have come and gone during his tenure.

At a Feb. 25 county commissioners’ meeting, colleagues and friends of Noble spoke about his commitment to the sheriff ’s office as he celebrated his work anniversary.

“I always say I stand on the shoulders of giants,” Commissioner Abe Laydon said in the meeting. “And you are a giant in this profession and this community.”

Former Douglas County Sheriff

ELLIOTT WENZLER

Dave Weaver also spoke at the meeting about his experiences with Noble.

“He’s a remarkable man and the dedication and service that he has provided this county is second to none,” Weaver said of Noble.

Noble has worked in every division of the sheriff ’s office, beginning with his job as a dispatcher. A year after he was hired, he became a deputy.

Throughout his years on the job, he’s been on a number of notable calls for service. He responded to the Highlands Ranch Mansion when then-owner Lawrence Phipps had a heart attack.

He was also working the night of March 11, 1978 when the county courthouse burned down.

“I could see the glow of the fire in the sky,” he remembers.

Noble also had a part to play in the current judicial center in Castle Rock. He was sent by the county to visit other jails throughout the county and help develop a plan. His name is on a bronze plaque inside the facility.

“He wore a lot of different hats … to get us into modern policing. Larry played a major role in that,” Sheriff Tony Spurlock said at the commissioner meeting.

When Spurlock started with the sheriff ’s office, Noble had already been working there for about five years, Spurlock said. In their time on the job, the two have gotten to know

each other well.

“Larry is one of those guys that’s just very well-rounded and is very calming,” Spurlock said in an interview. “He had the skills to calm situations.”

As a child growing up in Littleton, Noble was always fascinated by first responders. He also found himself serving as an advocate for other kids.

“There would be kids at school who would get like picked on and nobody would be their friend,” he said. “I would stick up for them when they would be picked on.”

When he got older, he served as a member of the Arapahoe County Rescue Patrol.

“That’s kind of where I got my taste for emergency services,” he said.

Later he worked as an EMT and eventually moved over to the sheriff ’s office.

After 45 years, he’s about ready to retire, he said. A big part of the reason he has stayed in the job so long is so that he could secure Medicare, he said. Now that he’s 65, he’s likely to move out of the role within the next year.

In the next phase of his life, he plans to continue the volunteer work he does with ham radio and highaltitude balloon groups.

“Douglas County has been real good to me, it has been a family to me,” he said in the commissioners’ meeting. “It’s going to be tough to go.”

STEM shooting suspect will not face death penalty Family of slain teenager urged capital punishment

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The adult suspect in the STEM School Highlands Ranch shooting that left one dead and eight more injured will not face the death penalty if convicted, according to court documents filed the morning of March 5.

The family of slain STEM senior Kendrick Castillo urged the death penalty.

Eighteenth Judicial District Attorney George Brauchler said in the filing he decided against the death penalty for Devon Erickson, 19, after numerous in-person and phone conversations with John and Maria Castillo, Kendrick’s parents.

“The Castillo family is unequivocal that it is their genuine desire that capital punishment be sought for the defendant,” Brauchler wrote. “It is my solemn obligation to ensure that their position is heard and understood through this pleading.”

But Brauchler noted jurors would be asked to weigh the suspect’s age and lack of serious prior convictions in deciding on the death penalty.

Erickson is accused of helping

Alec McKinney, 16, organize and carry out the May 7 attack at STEM. Castillo, 18, died while rushing Erickson with two other students at the onset of the shooting, according to authorities.

Erickson goes to trial in May and faces 44 felony charges, including first-degree murder. He pleaded not guilty in January.

McKinney accepted a plea agreement in early February. He will be sentenced on May 18 for counts including first-degree murder and also will not face the death penalty.

Under state law there are 17 aggravating factors that can trigger pursuing capital punishment in a case. At least one must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt to a jury for the death penalty to be considered.

Brauchler outlined several potential aggravating factors that appear in the STEM case.

Those are, where the possession of the weapon used to commit the crime constitutes a felony offense; the perpetrator creates a grave risk of death to another in addition to the victim who was killed; the commission of a class 1, 2, or 3 felony that also results in someone’s death; an agreement to kill; and killing from ambush.

In weighing those aggravating factors, a jury would also be asked to consider Erickson’s age, the absence of significant prior con-

victions and additional evidence.

Erickson was 18 at the time of the shooting.

“We were for the death penalty,” John Castillo said. “We feel that there’s at least six aggravators there that would make it possible.”

John Castillo said in his conversations with prosecutors, the district attorney expressed doubt that they could successfully seek the death penalty. The district attorney anticipated defense attorneys would rely on Erickson’s cocaine use before the shooting, which the suspect alleges he was forced to consume, and his lack of serious prior convictions, John Castillo said.

Brauchler was not available for comment on March 5. A spokeswoman said the district attorney’s office does not comment on open cases.

The family knows death penalty cases can be “a long shot,” John Castillo said, pointing to the Aurora theater shooting and a jury’s decision against the death penalty for convicted killer James Holmes.

Holmes, who killed 12 people in the attack, was sentenced in 2015 to life in prison after jurors failed to unanimously agree to hand him the death penalty. Brauchler also prosecuted that case.

Still, the Castillos believe the death penalty is “deserved in this case,” John said.

“Justice for Kendrick would mean

them having to sacrifice and give up their life,” John Castillo said. “It’s just that plain and simple. That’s how my wife and I feel.”

McKinney will face a minimum sentence of life with the possibility of parole after 40 years and a maximum sentence of life with the possibility of parole after 40 years, plus 409 years in the department of corrections.

In February, Brauchler told reporters that McKinney could be eligible for a juvenile program in the Department of Corrections that paroles him in 20 to 25 years.

The death penalty has been a hotbutton issue in Colorado this year.

State lawmakers repealed the death penalty on Feb. 26. Colorado will be the 22nd state to abolish the death penalty once Gov. Jared Polis signs the bill into law, which he has pledged to do.

The law would only apply to crimes charged on or after July 1, which would have meant Erickson was eligible for the death penalty.

John Castillo said he felt repealing the death penalty in Colorado should have been sent to the voters and he was disappointed to see lawmakers decide for them. He also understands some people will disagree with the family’s stance on capital punishment.

“I think most people would have to be where my wife and I are to understand,” he said.

No Monthly Payment, Get Cash & Pay Off Your Mortgage

by Kathy Muni

B

eing retired should be some of the best years of your life. Yet, so many on a fixed monthly income find themselves struggling to make ends meet and having to choose between paying their mortgage, paying monthly bills or buying groceries. If you find yourself in a similar situation, a reverse mortgage from Silver Leaf Mortgage may be the answer you have been seeking.

With a reverse mortgage, you receive a government insured loan product that allows you to pay off your current mortgage and thereby eliminate your monthly mortgage payment to get the breathing-room you need to live. Taxes and homeowners insurance must still be paid, but many seniors have found that not only can they eliminate their mortgage payment, they can also get tax-free cash to use for any purpose.

Even if you don’t have a mortgage, you may be “house rich and cash poor.”

You have paid into your home for

many years and have accumulated housing wealth that would otherwise only be accessible if you sold your home. With a reverse mortgage you can tap into the wealth in your home while you continue to own and live in the home and make life a little easier.

Call me to find out if a reverse mortgage is right for you. You owe it to yourself and your family to know your options and get accurate facts.

Tri-County Health leader: Stay informed, calm when it comes to virus V Community gets expert advice on COVID-19

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As the novel coronavirus — COVID-19 — makes a foothold in the United States, local health officials are reminding people about measures they can take to help stop its spread, prevent themselves from contracting it and prepare for potential outbreaks at the local level.

Executive Director John Douglas of the Tri-County Health Department, which covers Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties, urged local residents to first and foremost stay calm, and remember Colorado remains at low risk for an outbreak.

He then cautioned the Douglas public to stay informed about the virus and rely on credible sources of information.

While coronaviruses as a family are not new, he said, the COVID-19 outbreak that began last year is a new strain.

Health officials are learning more and more about the virus as the epidemic grows, including how it transmits throughout a community. COVID-19 had an initial estimated mortality rate of 2% to 3% but that is showing signs of lessening, Douglas said.

A vaccine is not yet available and likely won’t be for a year or more, although efforts are underway to develop one quickly, Douglas said.

To stay healthy now, people should follow common-sense practices. Wash hands frequently and avoid touching one’s face. Cover the mouth and nose with an elbow when coughing or sneezing. Avoid contact with people who are known to have COVID-19. People who are elderly and/or have a lung disease are the most at-risk groups.

As for local outbreaks, Douglas said to think ahead.

Preparing as one would for a snowstorm is good analogy, he said, al-

Douglas County: ‘We want to be ready’

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

While the Tri-County Health Department will lead Douglas County’s response to COVID-19, other county agencies are also preparing to assist in countering the illness.

The county Office of Emergency Management’s primary role will be to support the health department throughout the process, OEM director Tim Johnson said.

“If this gets worse,” he said, “we want to be ready and want to be able to protect our employees as well as our citizens.”

The OEM has set up a virtual emergency operation center and is activated at a level three, which is the lowest alert level.

“Which means, essentially, emergency management is monitoring and in contact with Tri-County Health for the latest information,” he said.

The emergency management office will help distribute information and decisions released by Tri-County, Johnson said.

“There’s always potential that this could get worse and we (may) actually need to have folks stay home and create some social distancing,” he said.

Johnson recommends preparing for a possible outbreak similarly to how one would for a significant snowstorm. That means having all essential items readily available at home, he said. This includes medications and food. though he added an outbreak could require people to stay home longer than a one- or two-day weather event would.

Buying some groceries and household items is fine but stockpiling toilet paper in the garage or clearing out water on store shelves is an overreaction at this time, he said. And it disrupts the supply chain at stores.

Douglas answered these and other

He also encourages residents to have their own sense of situational awareness.

“Do some research on your own, go to the websites … follow the guidelines that are being put out,” he said. “There’s a ton of information out there for folks.”

Johnson also recommends finding ways to keep the people of one’s household busy and occupied if they are required to shelter-inplace.

Local hospitals are also preparing for a potential outbreak by educating, training and drilling their staff, representatives from UCHealth Highlands Ranch and Castle Rock Adventist and Parker Adventist hospitals said.

“We are making sure (the staff) feels comfortable if a COVID-19 patient walks in our door,” said Chris Olson, infection prevention and emergency preparedness program manager at UCHealth Highlands Ranch.

That means training staff in how to put on and take off their personal protective equipment. They have also created drills around how to deal with COVID-19 patients who come into the hospital system.

Parker Adventist and Castle Rock Adventist are also completing drills and training, a spokesperson said in an email to Colorado Community Media.

All three hospitals also have access to negative airflow rooms, which are recommended for containment of viruses like COVID-19. questions about the outbreak. Here’s more on how he suggests people prepare for COVID-19 in the Denver metro area.

What is Tri-County Health Department focused on right now?

We’re trying to prevent transmission from happening. We’re trying to prevent fear of the epidemic, which

is very understandable, from becom- F ing too exaggerated, and the anxiety creating social disruption. And frankly, we’ve seen the stock markets go up and down, so even financial disruptions as well.

Who is at risk of contracting COVID-19?

The highest risk is if you are in contact with somebody who has a known infection. That would be a high risk. Or, if you have traveled in one of the countries where there seems to be widespread circulation right now — within the incubation period, about 14 days.

How does COVID-19 spread? How can people prevent themselves from contracting it?

Most respiratory viruses are actually transmitted by people having stuff on their hands, and we touch our faces a lot.

If you’re in a place where you see people coughing or sneezing and not covering their mouth or nose, ideally with the crook of their elbow, I think all of us have got to get comfortable with politely telling people, “Hey, that’s not cool right now.”

Soap and water is probably better than hand sanitizer. If you can’t be near soap and water, use a hand sanitizer, but soap and water work really well.

How does COVID-19 affect different age groups and which are at the biggest risk?

We’re learning more every week.

Older people with underlying lung diseases appear to be at the greatest risk.

It may be kids are more likely to get it asymptomatically. Some people get so sick they die, others don’t even know they have it, and then 80% have it mild.

What should you do if you are generally sick?

If you are sick and have a respiratory infection, stay home. Don’t be a hero.

When should people who are sick go to the doctor or be tested for COVID-19?

We’re really trying to encourage people who are not unstably ill to call SEE VIRUS, P7

Three local residents ‘presumptive positive’ for COVID-19

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Tri-County Health Department has announced three presumptive positive cases of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, in Douglas County as of the afternoon of March 6.

The first Douglas County case confirmed by the state was a Castle Rock woman who recently traveled outside the country. Hers was the second presumptive positive case in Colorado, and was announced by Gov. Jared Polis on March 5.

Two more Douglas County cases were announced on March 6 — one for an adult who recently returned

from a trip to Italy, and the second, a student who returned from a trip to the Philippines. Two of the cases are from the Castle Rock area and the third is from Highlands Ranch.

“Both of these new cases are from known international exposure, have mild illnesses, and are isolated at home, not in a hospital. There is no indiciation of additional community exposure at this time,” Tri-County Executive Director John Douglas said in a statement.

Tri-County staff are monitoring people who may have been exposed to COVID-19, he said.

A presumptive positive case means the individual tested positive at the state level, but results had not been

confirmed by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

In a March 5 news release, TriCounty said the first Douglas County case is an “older adult woman from Douglas County who was exposed during an international cruise.”

The first case in Colorado was confirmed in a man who was visiting Summit County after flying into Denver International Airport. The Douglas County and Summit County cases are not believed to be related.

As of the evening of March 6, several other cases had been reported in Colorado, and officials said several quarantines were underway.

Douglas County Commissioner Roger Partridge issued a state-

ment on March 5 urging the public to practice good hygiene and stay vigilant. Wash hands regularly with soap and water. If soap and water are not available, use hand sanitizer.

Sneeze and cough in the crook of the elbow. After using a tissue, throw it away immediately and wash hands.

Stay home if sick. Keep children home if they are sick. Talk to employers about sick leave policies and telecommuting. Go to tchd.org/coronavirus or cdc.gov/covid19 for more information and stay informed.

“There has never been a more important time for citizens of Douglas County to recognize that they as individuals are part of the solution,” Partridge said.

first. Call your doctor and say, “How are you doing, I’m not feeling so well.

I’m coughing, I’m sneezing, it’s been going on for three days, I’d like to come in and get tested.”

If you called me today and told me that story, I would say, “Just stay home and chill. This is very unlikely to be the coronavirus.” If you’re not becoming progressively worse, call your provider first. Don’t come in because testing is still potentially limited.

How should people prepare for the possibility of a local outbreak?

Stay alert. Stay rationally calm. Try to stay informed. Use discretion about where you get your information.

Social media and the internet can also be infiltrated with misleading stuff. Rumors that it’s been manufactured by a lab as some intentional thing or being used as a weapon. So, stay alert.

Be aware that in some cases schools have modified their schedules or closed. Think about what you would need to do if schools close. Think about friends and family who may, if things got worse, may be vulnerable or isolated. Your grandmother or neighbor who lives alone.

Should people buy face masks?

We are encouraging people not to take part in the massive rush on face masks. They’re really hard to get

anyway because there’s already been such a massive rush.

Just be aware you don’t need to waste your money on these gouged-up masks.

Why should people get their flu shot if they haven’t?

We’re still in the flu season. It’s not too late for flu vaccines.

If things get really bad our hospitals could be — “swamped” might be too strong a word, but they could get really busy. The more we can prevent that happening from the flu, which is good in and of itself, if we have a coronavirus outbreak, we’ll be better prepared.

Does Tri-County Health Department have protocols or procedures in place for epidemics and outbreaks?

Yes, really since 9/11. There was a post-9/11 anthrax scare. Health departments like ours began to get into the game of emergency preparedness and management.

We, like other health departments, have activated our emergency operations center where we’ve got a much more streamlined operation around developing and testing protocols.

How would Tri-County Health Department handle an outbreak if one occurs locally?

We don’t have a vaccine now, so we’d be doing things like helping organize testing, helping monitor people who’d been exposed, helping monitor their isolation.

We’d be working with our hospitals if we hit a critical point where hospitals were beyond capacity, as to (what) Plan Bs looked like.

School district makes plans in case of local outbreak

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If the novel coronavirus spurs a serious local outbreak, the Douglas County School District might conduct education electronically or remotely.

Missed days of school may need to be made up later.

Those were some of the precautions outlined in a letter to the community about how the district is monitoring the global coronavirus outbreak and its status in the United States. The district also created a designated webpage on its website, describing how the district will respond in the event of a local outbreak.

The district declined an interview on the issue.

The virus, called COVID-19, is a new respiratory disease that started in China last year.

In a letter published online and signed by the “Douglas County School District,” DCSD says it is coordinating with public health agencies, including the Tri-County Health Department and the Colorado Department of

Public Health and Environment, to monitor COVID-19.

The district will follow the health department’s direction on any quarantines or closures if a major outbreak hits locally.

“Our focus would first be on ensuring the safety of students and staff, and, then on how education would continue,” the district’s letter to the community reads.

The Colorado Department of Education has “assured local school districts that they will provide support and additional flexibilities” in the event of extended closures, the letter says.

The letter says DCSD has “stringent cleaning practices” at district schools and facilities to prevent spreading the virus.

The district’s webpage dedicated to the coronavirus, dcsdk12.org/coronavirus, heavily mirrors the letter to the community, repeating many of the positions expressed in the letter. Both provide tips to prevent contracting or spreading the virus and resources for people to learn more about COVID-19.

State now has ability to test for COVID-19 Quick turnaround expected from facility set up by CDPHE STAFF REPORT

The State Laboratory at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment can now test for COVID-19 — the technical name for novel coronavirus. Testing had previously been done only by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, according to a news release.

The test will be used for people who meet the criteria for COVID-19 testing only; it is not available to the general public.

With staffing and equipment resources, the state lab has the capacity to test up to 160 samples per day, assuming test kits from the CDC are continuously available. Turnaround time for results is expected to be within 24 hours of specimen receipt at the state laboratory.

“Being able to confirm or rule out cases of COVID-19 at the state level allows us to be more nimble in responding to and controlling this disease if it occurs in Colorado,” State Laboratory Director Scott Bookman

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment has issued the following recommendations to help the public avoid COVID-19.

• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.

If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.

• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.

• Stay home when you are sick, and keep your children at home when they are sick.

• Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.

• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.

In addition, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment says it is not recommended that people who are well wear a face mask to protect themselves from respiratory diseases, including COVID-19.

said in the news release. “The time frame for testing cases should be quicker than ever.”

In Colorado, the public health officials may decide that a patient merits testing if: • He or she has a fever or signs/ symptoms of lower respiratory illness, such as cough or shortness of breath, and has been in close contact with someone confirmed with COVID-19 within 14 days of when symptoms started.

• He or she has a fever and signs/ symptoms of lower respiratory illness (and other diagnoses such as influenza have been ruled out), and the patient recently traveled to parts of the world where infection rates are high or community spread is occurring, within 14 days of when

symptoms started.

• He or she has a fever with severe lower respiratory illness that requires hospitalization and other diagnoses such as influenza have been ruled out.

This guidance varies slightly from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. As the state lab has capacity, Colorado will continue to consider testing for individuals who are not hospitalized to identify patients who have traveled to affected areas and who have less severe disease.

If a medical provider thinks a patient may have COVID-19, the

provider will contact the state or a local public health department for instructions on testing. If a patient needs to be tested, the medical provider will collect a specimen from the patient’s nose and throat and send the samples to the state lab.

Public health agencies will make the final decision about testing for COVID-19 virus.

The collaboration between public health, health care providers, and other agencies to prepare for the disease in Colorado is ongoing. The state will continue to investigate and test possible cases and provide timely updates about the situation.

VOICES

Art becomes something people can really get into

f you own what is commonly called a “painting,” you might want to hang on to it. Someday it might be worth a lot of money as a curiosity.

QUIET Paintings, typically but not always, DESPERATION are considered art, and they are achieved with oil paint, acrylic paint or watercolor on a variety of rectangular and square substrates that include canvas, paper and even cave walls.

Craig Marshall Paintings can depict a number of Smith things: the human figure, landscapes, animals or, in the case of abstract expression, nothing

at all.

Artists have painted works of art for centuries.

Caves in France near the village of Montignac are historically famous because of the interior wall paintings that are thought to be 17,000 years old.

Artists such as Durer, Rembrandt, da Vinci, Monet, Picasso and Pollock have inspired art students and audiences, and their sublime efforts have filled art museums around the world, including our own Denver Art Museum, the Kirkland Museum and the Museum of Outdoor Arts.

While some artists, particularly the once-a-week variety that is fascinated by fruit and landscapes, will continue to paint on squares and rectangles, their numbers will dwindle to next to nothing.

This will have a major impact on future art exhibitions, on art schools, on art museums and on vendors — especially those who currently manufacture pre-made canvases.

One day, finding a canvas to paint on will be as difficult as finding a typewriter ribbon is now.

None of this means the end of art. There’s simply a new kid on the block.

It’s called “immersion art.” Immersion art is similar to entering a fun house at a cheap carnival where things seem to fall off the walls, endanger viewers and provide almost hallucinogenic images.

It’s happening and, most importantly, it’s cool.

Conventional art museum attendance — except for blockbuster

exhibitions featuring the work of art history’s Hall of Fame — is in decline, and if the museums don’t convert to immersion spaces, they will be deceased in the water.

New museums, specifically designed for immersion-type products, are sprouting all over the country and all over the world. Likewise: galleries and other venues where art is exhibited.

Think of yourself as Alice Liddell and you’ve just fallen down a rabbit hole. Or going on a date with Salvador Dali.

As many of you know, I am a trained painter. I am retrofitting my entire inventory of paintings with mechanisms that will enable them to spin, move up and down and SEE SMITH, P11

Empowering young women When I think back to when I was a 16-year-old girl in 1978, I was only expected to get good grades, go to college, get married, and raise a family. Fortunately, people in my life encouraged me to reach for my dreams. But not everyone has that support.

That’s why I was excited recently to partner with The Allstate Foundation to empower youth in our community. Together we provided SEE LETTERS, P23

e are all familiar with the start of a story that begins with, “Once upon a time.” What if that time is right now? What if years from now someone tells our story based on what they know about us, what they have observed in us, and what they WINNING have experienced WORDS through us? They may just begin with, “Once upon a time,” and then fill in the rest of our story based on what they remember about us.

Here’s the thing, those stories that are told in the Michael Norton future will be based on what we are doing right now, today, and in all the tomorrows of our lives. The good news is that we get to control that narrative, don’t we? And we control that narrative based on our behaviors, our contributions, the words we use, how we respond to situations, our experiences, and by living out our story in such a way that

whoever we meet remembers us as someone who made their day, their job, and their life a little brighter.

When we think about our “Once upon a time” story that people will share, we should not worry about our past mistakes or failures because they are behind us now. We need to own and always learn from those mistakes and failures, but we should also remember that we have the opportunity to create our new story. The story that we really want to live and that we choose to live, and the one that we can start to begin authoring right now.

And maybe it is not a new story at all. Maybe we love the story we have lived and that we are living right now. And from this moment forward we can continue to write the rest of our story, we can build upon our journey by living more “Once upon a time” moments that helped shape how others will remember us and how we may have made a difference in their lives in some way.

Right now may seem like a fleeting moment in time, and that may

Preparing DCSD students for today — and beyond

I

t is a great time to be part of the Douglas County School District (DCSD)! We are preparing our students for today — and beyond.

Did you know DCSD students can earn college credit while in high school? We offer Concurrent Enrollment (CE) through four post-secondary institutions to make this possible: • Arapahoe Community College • Red Rocks Community College • Metropolitan State University of Denver • Colorado State University-Pueblo These CE programs benefit students by lowering the cost of college, increasing the flexibility of academic options, increasing the ease of access to college coursework and preparing students for a pathway and a seamless transfer into college or the workforce.

College courses are offered in all DCSD high schools and may be available on college campuses.

DCSD high school teachers who meet required postsecondary instructor qualifications teach a variety of concurrent enrollment courses offered

in our high schools. Tuition is paid by the school district, and the student/ family is responsible for any additional fees required by the postsecondary institution.

For concurrent enrollment classes offered on a college campus, students are taught by colGUEST lege faculty. This option may be availCOLUMN able for courses not offered in a DCSD high school. The course must fulfill a graduation requirement, be a component of completing a certification or degree program and meet additional disThomas Tucker trict requirements.

Tuition is paid by DCSD at the current community college rate, and the student/family is responsible for any additional tuition or fees required by the postsecondary institution. Students should meet with their counselor to review what options are available.

This truly is an amazing opportunity for students to earn college credit while in high school. Postsecondary education can be expensive, but the DCSD Concurrent Enrollment program keeps more money in your pocket. In fact, in the 2018-2019 school year, students and parents saved nearly $2.3 million in college expenses through DCSD’s concurrent enrollment program and partnerships!

DCSD is also committed to providing students with authentic, work-based learning opportunities.

Through Career and Technical Education (CTE) programming and industry partnerships, we offer opportunities for our students to join with industry partners to gain real-world knowledge and the essential skills they will need to compete for the postsecondary opportunity they may choose after graduation.

be true. But years from now we will look back at all of our collective fleeting moments, all the moments that seemed fleeting and maybe insignificant at the time, but the moments that over time shaped our life story. So, whatever it is we are doing right now, what we will do later today, and what we do in the fleeting but significant moments of tomorrow all matter. You matter.

Your story matters.

Once upon a time there was a young man who seemed to move from job to job with no goals or vision for his future. Living for the moment, the fun, and the paycheck.

He was never thinking about the life story that he was writing. This went on until one day he heard someone else share their life story. It was a story about living a life as a wandering generality, a life absent of goals and dreams until one day someone else came along and made a dif-

sideways, and emit sounds such as the roar of a lion and the bray of a donkey.

The art world is a step behind the music industry, where visual contrivances, such as pyrotechnics, countless back-up dancers, and innumerable costume changes replaced valid content years ago.

If your son or daughter is thinking about art school, make sure you don’t encourage them to major in

painting, unless the school reassures you the painting classes will discourage static wall art, and encourage paintings you can touch, hear, smell and even taste.

And another thing: Get used to the word “holistic,” whether you want to or not.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait for old-fashioned oil paintings to become a thing of the past.

In other words: Don’t just look at a work of art. Become a part of it.

ference in their life. They taught them about hope, and they taught them how to grow from being a wandering generality to becoming a meaningful specific. In that moment the young man understood that he mattered, his story mattered, and that he wanted his “Once upon a time” story to change. That young man was me.

So how about you? How is your story being written? Are you the author or just the reader? If you are happy with your story, I encourage you to keep writing it. And if you don’t like the way the story is going so far, just remember that you can rewrite it starting right now. As always, I would love to hear your story at mnorton@tramazing.com, and when we live each moment of each day thinking about how people will one day share our “Once upon a time” story, it really will be a better than good week.

courses are academically rigorous and offer students specific pathway programming designed to allow them to obtain the knowledge and skills required for their next step after graduation. Programming is offered within the Health Science and Natural Resources, Human & Public Services and Safety, Industrial Technology, Arts & Design, and Business and Information Technology career clusters. Some CTE programs offer college courses for students to earn college credit while still in high school.

Our commitment in DCSD is to encourage our students to explore their passions and follow their interests as they decide their next step after graduation. It is our mission to provide students with real-world knowledge, career and technical essential skills, and occupational experience through

Controversial program aims to reduce young children’s risk of drowning

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

W

ith drowning as a leading cause of death among young children, parents each year seek out the best swim safety classes for their children.

One program in the Denver metro area is so popular among residents that it rivals community recreation centers’ own swimming programs in participation, the rec centers say.

Infant Swimming Resource, or ISR, has conducted more than 8 million self-rescue lessons nationwide since its founding in 1966 and boasts having saved 800 children, according to its website.

In the daily, 10-minute sessions, infants and toddlers are slowly taught to control their breath underwater, roll on their backs and then float if they find themselves unexpectedly in water. Those old enough to maneuver themselves are trained to find a pool’s wall.

ISR is not meant to replace other swim safety measure and the program encourages practices including constant supervision of children near water, four-sided fencing around pools, self-locking gates and alarms on any entrance to a pool.

The program is not without controversy. The American Academy of Pediatrics has not endorsed ISR because it lacks research, and some worry its methods traumatize children.

Still, parents steadfast in their support of ISR and confident in its ability to save young lives flock to the self-rescue lessons at local recreation centers, private pools and other facilities year-round.

“We are kind of the last measure against drowning,” ISR instructor Julia McDonald said. “If all of those other things fail, we are the thing that will save them if nobody else is around.”

Standing by the pool at the Highlands Ranch Recreation Center at Eastridge, Christy Groza pointed to the exact spot where her 4-year-old daughter Hyacinth slipped and fell in the water two years earlier.

Hyacinth received ISR training when she was younger but had not been to a class in roughly a year when the accident happened. Nonetheless, she did not panic. Instead, she immediately turned on her back and floated until a lifeguard scooped her

up, Groza said.

“I was so thankful for ISR,” Groza said.

For 2-year-old Benjamin Simcik, ISR lessons are about giving him survival skills when swimming with his parents and two older siblings, his mother Laura Simcik said.

“When you’re in a pool with three kids it could be life or death so fast and it’s really scary,” she said. “He needs to know that if you’re in water you can go under really fast.”

SEE SAFETY, P14

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends children begin swim lessons at 12 months old, if parents and their pediatrician agree it’s a good fit for the individual child, said Sarah Denny, spokeswoman and lead author on the AAP’s policy statement for drowning prevention. Research shows that’s the age where swim lessons become effective and can lower the risk of drowning, according to the AAP. Parents are urged to stay vigilant and never leave a child alone at bath time, in wading pools or anytime a child may be near water. Stay within arm’s reach of infants and toddlers.

Still, many drowning deaths occur when children were not expected to be near the water, Denny said.

Pools should be protected by four-sided fencing with self-locking gates. Alarms on entrances to a pool are also encouraged, Denny said. All children should receive swim lessons, and parents too, according to the AAP’s policy statement.

Drowning is the leading cause of death for children 1 to 4 and it remains within the top 10 leading causes of death for people through the age of 54, according to 2017 statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

There are a variety of swim lessons available in the Denver metro area, at community recreation centers or private companies. Parents can get in the water and learn alongside their infants and toddlers in some classes. There are also small-group classes where parents watch poolside, or private, one-on-one lessons with an instructor.

Lights go up on an empty apartment in an old brownstone on East 48th Street in New York City. It’s February 1963. Only the kitchen is furnished.

A restless young woman enters and stuffs things into the refrigerator as she tidies up a bit. Suitcases are in the room. We meet Corie Bratter (Lynzee Jones), the somewhat ditzy resident newlywed, who has rented this chilly fifth-floor space for herself and new husband, Paul (Tim Howard), an already-a-bit-stuffy lawyer.

She awaits Bloomingdales’ furniture delivery — and the next years of her life…

The audience settles in for “Barefoot in the Park,” a favorite comedy

by American playwright Neil Simon (1927-2018). Many theater companies

across the nation are honoring the late, always-popular Simon this season, with performances of his works — more than 30 plays, plus as many television scripts.

Stomping and puffing is heard. It’s the telephone repairman (Giovanni Roselli), here to hook them up and assign a phone number. Imagine! Her own number …

A winded Paul appears next — those stairs are an ongoing issue. Each character’s response is different.

The phone guy leaves and a brief lovey-dovey interlude is followed by arguing. He wants to work. She wants to play … More steps on the stairs announce the arrival of Corie’s mother (the always-entertaining Annie Dwyer).

Amusing Neil Simon-crafted conversation continues and eventually the quirky upstairs neighbor Victor Velasco (Tom Mullin) appears to add another voice and color to the scene.

They decide to head to Staten Island for dinner, where something with flaming brandy is said to be on the menu … They return full of Greek wine and still talking, talking …

Benjamin did some crying when he began lessons several weeks ago. By week two he could float in the water without being held. In his fifth week, Benjamin was turning on his back when let go by his instructor and kicking to the pool’s edge in seconds.

“It was a little hard to watch at first,” Simcik said of the daily lessons.

“I think the consistency helped me too because I knew what to expect.”

Benjamin and Hyacinth’s instructor, Jennifer Dombrowski, has been ISR-certified for nine years and works in Highlands Ranch. She lets each student move at a pace that works for them, she said. She never allows a child to try a skill — putting their face in the water, submerging, floating — until she’s certain they’re ready, she said.

Both Dombrowski and McDonald, who is an independent contractor at the Brighton Recreation Center and teaches in Arvada, said demand is high for the program.

“Every child needs to know selfsurvive,” Dombrowski said. “Give each child that skill before they find themselves alone in the water.”

Facing controversy Some in the swim community scrutinize or oppose ISR. Rumors that ISR instructors toss children in pools shroud the program reputation. Some say ISR’s practice of having children

Castle Rock swim instructor Russ Marsh, who owns Smilefish Swim School, said former ISR students have come to him afraid of the water, which he believes is because of the ISR training.

“I think it’s horrible, because I get kids that come to me that are 3 or 4 years old that are terrified,” he said.

“They’re scared to death of the water.

Not all of them, but too many.”

He’d prefer the youngest of swimmers undergo parent-taught classes, where parents are in the pool learning alongside infants and toddlers. It provides an important layer of comfort

for children, Marsh said, who began as a swim coach in 1972 and coached for 35 years, including several at the University of Colorado. He switched to running swim lessons 15 years ago.

And ISR is not endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics because it lacks any studies conducted by peer-reviewed journals.

AAP spokeswoman Sarah Denny has served on the organization’s council for Injury, Violence and Poison Prevention for seven years. The general pediatrician was also lead author on the AAP’s policy statement for drowning prevention.

“At this time, we do not endorse ISR because there’s no evidence to

show that ISR is effective in preventing drowning,” Denny said. “There is absolutely no evidence around ISR.” Denny said she isn’t sure why studies are not available on the program, but it leaves AAP without the necessary information to take a stance on ISR. A spokesperson for ISR could not be reached for comment.

Parents of children in ISR told Colorado Community Media they either were not aware of the criticism toward ISR or were not swayed by it. Firsthand experience, they said, earned their faith in the program.

“Some parents can’t handle their kids crying and they mistake that for being scared,” Groza said. “Just because your kid cries doesn’t mean they’re scared. It could just mean that they’re a 2-year-old and they don’t want to do something.”

Old time and temp line awaits your call 303-222-8811 is working again, thanks to a Texas phone fanatic

Another of Denver’s old time and temperature lines is back in service, thanks to Texas telecom engineer John Lochridge.

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Does the phone number 303-222-8811 sound familiar? Longtime residents of the Denver area may recognize it as one of the city’s old-time and temperature numbers.

Disconnected since the 1990s, the line recently came back to life thanks to John Lochridge, a Texas telecom engineer on a mission to resurrect the nation’s time and temperature lines.

“It’s something from childhood,” Lochridge said. “For many people, the time and temperature was the first number they learned to call.”

Lochridge has reinstated hundreds of lines around the country over the past several years. He begins with research, he said. He sometimes finds former time and temp lines listed in old phone books and road atlases, but others come from community Facebook groups.

Then, it’s a matter of working with phone companies to obtain the rights to the phone number itself, many of which have been disconnected for years. Finally, Lochridge uses his

COURTESY PHOTO

engineering and computer programming skills to connect the line to an automated recording that reads the time and local temperature. Some lines also read a weather forecast from the National Weather Service.

He said a woman in New Mexico recently dialed one of his newly acquired lines, simply for the sake of punching in the old numbers she dialed so often as a kid. Lochridge

hadn’t yet attached the line to a recording, so it rang to his personal phone.

“I told her what I was doing, and she said she didn’t know why, but it just made her so happy,” Lochridge said.

Time and temperature lines date back to the early days of telephony, Lochridge said.

People used to call operators to get the right time to set their clocks,

which bothered phone companies because the calls were taking up operator time but didn’t generate revenue. For a time, phone companies hired employees specifically to stare at a clock and read the time out loud all day.

Eventually, companies developed automated lines that connected to a mechanical device that announced the time and temperature off of a series of electromagnetic drums. As the 20th century progressed, time and temperature numbers proliferated. Many were operated by phone companies, but others were run by local banks.

“Before the internet, and especially before television, it was the best way to accurately set your clocks,” Lochridge said.

In Denver, 303-222-8811 belonged to the Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Company, which became US West in 1991. The line was unceremoniously decommissioned sometime in the 1990s, and US West became Qwest, now CenturyLink.

The line joins another old Denver time and temp line that Lochridge restored: 303-844-4444. The Denver Post also operates the Weatherline Forecast Service at 303-337-2500.

“I hope it brings joy to people’s lives,” Lochridge said. “We try to offer hope, too. On Sunday I include a Scripture reading in the calls. I want to offer more than memories. A little hope for the future, too.”

New neighbors nest door Golden eagles have returned to Wildcat Mountain

M

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

An unlikely neighbor has again set up camp in Highlands Ranch for the next few months.

Golden eagles have nested in the cliffs of Wildcat Mountain for the 10th time, closing sections of the East/ West and Wildcat Mountain trails in order to protect the animals.

The female eagle, presumably the same one from past years, has taken to the nest, meaning there’s at least one egg there, said Mark Giebel, director of the wilderness area.

“As soon as she’s on the nest like that, we know she’s incubating an egg,” Giebel said while across the street from the nest one Friday afternoon in late February.

Typically, golden eagles avoid nesting in areas largely inhabited by humans. While Wildcat Mountain has had these nests in the past, the raptors were absent for many years. In 2011, employees of the Highlands Ranch Community Association’s Backcountry Wilderness Area noticed the eagles had returned to the historic nesting area.

“To have a golden eagle nest in suburbia is pretty rare,” Giebel said.

Since the eagles returned, Giebel

Mark Giebel, director of the HRCA Backcountry, looks for the male golden eagle using binoculars Feb. 28. On occasion, the male can be seen bringing prey back to the nest, Giebel said.

ELLIOTT WENZLER has gathered data on them every year, helping him create a behavior timeline.

Usually, the Backcountry team will notice the eagles engaging in courtship behavior around January. By late February or early March, the female begins incubating an egg, according to Giebel’s data. After about 40 to 45 days, Giebel and his team notice white, fluffy heads popping up from the nest.

Around June, the eaglets will fledge, or develop their wing feathers enough to begin flying. The HRCA and

Douglas County will keep their nearby trails closed until Sept. 1 to give the raptors plenty of time to become independent of the nest.

In five of the past nine years, the nest has been successful and at least one baby eaglet has eventually flown away, according to Giebel’s data. In the other four years, the nests have been abandoned. For the past three years, the nest has resulted in twin fledglings.

Every once in a while, lucky drivers along Monarch Boulevard may see the

male eagle flying in with a hunted rabbit or hear the young raptors and their mother calling loudly as he brings N home dinner.

Giebel still remembers the first time he saw one of the fledglings take its first flight, he said. He was relieved to find that all the precautions they had put in place to help the nest succeed had worked.

“It was gratifying,” he said. “It’s a symbol of conservation.”

Residents will have the chance to get an up-close look at a golden eagle during the HRCA’s Stay Wild Kickoff S Party March 12 at Living The Dream Brewing Co. More information on the event and the eagles is available at Facebook.com/HRCABackcountry.

Valor Christian’s hockey team took advantage of a crazy bounce to notch a 2-1 semifinal victory over Regis Jesuit on March 5 on the ice at the Pepsi Center in the state high school hockey playoffs.

Top-seeded Valor (19-2-1) was scheduled to face Fort Collins (18-3-1) in the championship game March 10 at the Pepsi Center. The Lambkins advanced with a 3-2 win over Chaparral in the other semifinal contest on March 5.

Junior Evan Pahos got Valor’s gamewinning goal against Regis at the 2:01 mark of the third period when he shot the puck off the end boards to the side of the net, but the puck bounced back and hit off the skate of Raiders’ goalie Gage Bussey and deflected into the net. That pushed the Eagles into a 2-1 lead, which they held during a hectic remainder of the game.

“Based on what team you’re on, it was a crazy bounce,” said Valor coach George Gwozdecky. “The end boards here are really lively. Where both teams play, whether it’s the Ice Ranch or Family Sports, you don’t have those lively bounces like you do at a lot of professional rinks. You thank your lucky stars it was a fortunate bounce for us.”

Valor worked during its pregame skate on getting defensemen and goals to be able to adjust to bounces off the end wall.

Pahos was speechless after he saw the puck glance off Bussey’s skate and go into the net.

“I was just trying to get a shot on

T

PAUL DISALVO

net with my line mate coming in for a rebound,” said Pahos. “I shot from the blueline off the end boards and it bounced off his skate and went in.

Half our bench was looking the other way and then we were celebrating.

“It felt awesome — not just because it was a game-winner but putting our team in the championship game.”

Prior to Pahos’ goal, the teams exchanged power-play tallies, with Ryan Kayser scoring for the Eagles at 11:04 of the first period and William Laws tying the game at 11:43 of the second.

Jake Stordahl and Kai Organku as-

sisted on Laws’ goal.

Valor nursed its one-goal lead over the final 15 minutes of the third period, killing off a a penalty and withstanding heavy Regis pressure. Valor goalie Trey Hirschfield made seven of his 25 saves in the third period.

“We came out with an OK start and in the second period we did not play well at all,” said Hirschfield.

“The third period is when we really stepped it up and played our best hockey.

“Ever since I started playing hockey my sophomore year at Valor,

Regis has always been the game we circled on the calendar. It makes it so much better to beat them.”

Regis has won six state titles since 2008 and was playing in a semifinal game for the ninth time in 10 seasons.

Valor has made two trips to the finals, including this year, in the past three seasons.

Valor went 2-0-1 against Regis during the CHSAA regular season, and including the fall league, the teams played six times this season.

For some, March snow a tough foe

here was yet another snow storm late in the day March 1, although much lighter than previous ones in February, but it was enough to cover the fields and playing surfaces as the 2020 spring sports season for nine sports started practices on March 2.

Snow and moisture OVERTIME in Colorado can be expected to interrupt schedules for spring sports teams.

Boys swimmers don’t have to worry about the snow and some sports can clear the snow off venues easier, but baseball Jim Benton coaches spend as much time working to dry off diamonds as they do throwing batting practice.

Girls golf and tennis could scrimmage and begin competitons on March 5. Baseball, boys and girls lacrosse,

girls soccer, boys swimming and boys and girls track teams could schedule games and meets on March 12.

That is, of course, weather permitting.

One person who welcomes snow is 12-year-old Ranch View Middle School seventh-grader Sophia Gardner.

She is a skier and a member of the Loveland Ski Club. She recently qualified in the U14 division for the Rocky Central Junior Championships at Steamboat Springs Ski Resort between March 9-14.

Gardner has been skiing since she was 5 years old and trains Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays at Loveland Ski Area. ”It’s pretty involved,” said Sophia’s father, Bill Gardner, who laughed when asked how many miles he has put on the car transporting his daughter to training and meets. ”Gosh, several thousand miles,” he said.

Basketball championships a go CHSAA commissioner Rhonda Blanford-Green has been in contact with multiple state and local agencies concerning the coronavirus, and right now the CHSAA plans to hold the remaining state high school basketball championships.

She send out a statement to schools last week.

“Our plan is to conduct the championship events unless directed by state agencies and/or facility administration of cancellations,” BlandfordGreen stated.

Grassroots winner Mitch Savage, golf course superintendent at Englewood’s Broken Tee Golf Club, has been named a Grassroots Ambassador Leadership Award winner.

The Golf Course Superintendents Association of America honors individuals with the Leadership Award

quarterly to recognize individuals who have demonstrated growth in advocacy and advancement of the GCSAA priority issues through congressional outreach and relationship development with a member of Congress.

Silver medalists Four sabre fencers from the Fencing Academy of Denver brought back a silver medal in the Men’s Junior Sabre event at the National Junior Olympic tournament on Feb. 17 in Columbus, Ohio.

The boys were Anthony Rabinkov of Centennial, David Smith of Castle Rock, Carson Singer of Longmont and Joseph D’Orazio of Lakewood.

Therapy program helps veterans through art STAFF REPORT

The Castle Rock Artist Cooperative, in partnership with the Douglas County Veterans Monument Foundation, is looking for veterans who live in Douglas County who could benefit from the therapeutic effects of art.

The cooperative will launch the Veterans Art Therapy program April 1 and is looking for 10 students who have been honorably discharged from the military. Classes will meet for three hours each week for 26 straight weeks. The program will take place

VALOR FROM PAGE 24

“Every game we’ve played against them this year has been a one-goal difference, and there was the tie game,” said Gwozdecky.

A moment of silence was held before the game in honor of Cale Woodley, the son of Regis hockey coach Dan Woodley and a former Raiders player, who passed away Feb. 25.

Both Gwozdecky and Dan Woodley offered compliments about the other school’s programs that resulted in a

at Hobby Lobby, 1361 New Beale St., Suite 200, in the Promenade in Castle Rock, and will be taught by Carol Hein, a local painter. The program will culminate with an art show that will be open to the public.

Those who are interested are asked to email castlerockartcoop@gmail. com and provide name, address, branch of service and years active, as well as a short description of why you feel that you would benefit from the program.

For information, visit castlerockartcoop.com/veterans close March 5 Frozen Four game.

“It was a hard-fought competitive game from the first face-off,” said Woodley. “The bounce that created the winning goal was unlucky for us, but we have been the recipient of good bounces in the past and I certainly can’t complain about the goal.

I’m proud of my team. We played as hard and as fast as we could.

“That goal could have just as easily benefitted us, but I want my team to know there are great lessons to be learned from winning and losing, and the value of winning can never be measured unless you’ve experienced losing.”

Medication fog can worsen or mimic dementia in elderly

BY MARILYNN MARCHIONE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Claire Dinneen’s daughters thought that worsening dementia was causing her growing confusion, but her doctor suspected something else.

Dr. Pei Chen asked them to round up medicines in the 89-year-old woman’s home and they returned with a huge haul. There were 28 drugs ordered by various doctors for various ailments, plus over-the-counter medicines. Chen spent a year sorting out which ones were truly needed and trimmed a dozen.

To her daughters’ surprise, Dinneen got better, able to remember more things and to offer advice on what to wear and how to raise their kids. Her symptoms were from “medication fog,” not her dementia getting worse, Chen told one daughter.

“I was just stunned,” Debbie Dinneen said. “No one had taken a look at the big picture” to see if medicines might be addling her mom, who lives near Berkeley, California.

“Unfortunately, it’s not unusual,” said Chen, a geriatrician at the University of California, San Francisco.

About 91% of people over 65 take at least one prescription medicine and 41% use five or more — what doctors call polypharmacy.

The risk of side effects or interactions rises with the number of pills, and one doctor often is unaware of what others have already prescribed for the same patient. Dinneen, for example, had two prescriptions for the same drug at different doses from different pharmacies.

“It’s very easy to miss medication side effects because they masquerade

Research looks at older patients One of Jicha’s colleagues, Dr. Daniela Moga, heads a study to see whether optimizing medicines can delay the start of dementia symptoms. At the Alzheimer’s Association International

Conference in Los Angeles in July, she described the federally funded research, which involves people who are 65 or older and taking at least one medicine on the geriatrics society list.

All have normal thinking skills, although some showed signs on brain scans of possible dementia developing.

Participants are given a sort of cognitive stress test — they take exams for thinking skills while wearing a patch that oozes scopolamine, a motion sickness drug that has anticholinergic effects, and then four weeks later without the patch. If they do worse while on the patch, it means certain medicines might be harmful for them, Moga explained.

“We want to see if we can identify a specific group that might benefit most” by carefully managing medication use and possibly delay the start of dementia symptoms, she said.

To help avoid medication problems, doctors give these tips:  Make sure you know all the medications someone is taking, including prescription, over-the-counter and vitamins or dietary supplements. Don’t assume that some are safe just because they don’t require a prescription.  Keep a running list with the date each medicine is started and stopped and note any symptoms. The National Institute on Aging offers a worksheet for this.  Review the total medication list with a doctor, a geriatrics specialist or a pharmacist.  If you suspect a problem, bring it up and don’t wait for your doctor to ask. The American Geriatric Society’s Health in Aging Foundation has these tools and tips for finding alternatives to any medicines causing trouble.

as all these other symptoms,” said Dr. Michael Steinman, another UCSF geriatrician.

He recently helped update an American Geriatrics Society list of potentially inappropriate medicines for older adults that can mimic dementia or make symptoms worse.

“Potentially” is the key word — the drugs on the list don’t always pose a problem, and no one should stop using any medicine without first checking with a doctor because that could do serious harm, Steinman stressed.

Doctors ‘de-prescribe’ medicines But some medicines don’t have a strong reason to be used and their risks may outweigh their benefits for older people, he and other doctors say.

They often “de-prescribe” medicines that may no longer be needed or that once may have been OK but now may be causing problems.

The list includes certain types of muscle relaxants, antihistamines, allergy medicines, stomach acid remedies, antidepressants, anti-anxiety medicines, pain relievers, sleep aids and other common treatments.

Many of these drugs have anticholinergic effects — that is, they reduce or interfere with a chemical messenger that’s key to healthy nerve function. That can cause drowsiness, confusion, blurred vision, dizziness and other symptoms that impair thinking skills.

These drugs might be fine for a younger person, but “once someone is having even the tiniest difficulty with thinking and memory, then the effects of these drugs are just huge,” said Dr. Andrew Budson of Boston University’s Alzheimer’s disease center.

Sometimes side effects appear right away, but in other cases they only develop or show up with longer use.

Patients may not make the connection between a drug they’ve used for many months and new symptoms. Age itself can be a culprit and make a long-used drug suddenly intolerable.

“The drug hasn’t changed, the person has,” said Dr. Greg Jicha, a dementia specialist at the University of Kentucky.

Family members will say: “`Well, she was on that for 20 years,’ but her brain, kidney, liver were younger too. She’s no longer going to be able to metabolize that drug” like she used to, he said.

Jicha recalled a case last year when he was asked to give a second opinion on a woman recently diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. He reviewed her medicines and “six jumped right out — these are not good medications for someone over 65” let alone at the higher doses she was receiving, he said. Four turned out to be for problems she no longer had, and he was able to switch some others to safer alternatives.

The woman’s score on a 38-point test of thinking skills rose from 18 before the medication changes to 33 after them, putting her at the low end of the normal range.

Now she can drive, which was “an absolute no-no six months earlier,” Jicha said. “She clearly no longer meets criteria for dementia.”
