Once a year, students in Douglas County spend a week raising money for kids with life-threatening medical conditions. The school district never disappoints — this year it has raised $309,360 and is expected to reach a total of about $500,000.

“We expect to receive $1 million in funding from student supporters throughout the state this year,” said Lauren Beede, director of community development for Make-A-Wish Colorado, the organization that collects the money. “So realistically, Douglas County Schools could make up half of overall student fundraising. The support that we have had from Douglas County schools is overwhelming.”

The funds are used to grant the wishes of kids who are fighting for their health. At the end of each MakeA-Wish week, high schools host an elaborate assembly to celebrate their “wish kid” and the success of the week. Restaurants and community events contribute to the fundraising.

Wish kid Gabby is treated like a star at Mountain Vista High School’s assembly on the final day of Make-A-Wish week. “Gabby (helped us) put aside our differences and [taught] us what it means to enjoy life by not getting caught up in negativity,” senior and student body president Regan Lavallee said. “It is a time everyone is working together to make something possible.”

COURTESY MIKAYLA OLAVE/MVHS STUDENT In total, Douglas County will have raised enough money to grant 66 wishes, according to Beede.

Volunteers preserve historic apple trees Trees thought to be 120 years old, still producing fruit

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A group of volunteers recently took to the small but resilient orchard of the Lucas Homestead, located on Castlewood Canyon State Park near Franktown, hunting for apple tree scions.

Their mission: to preserve and expand the historic apple orchard on the site. Scions are cuttings of young shoots on trees taken for the purpose of creating new root stock, so more trees can be planted.

The apple trees comprising the Lucas Homestead orchard are thought to be 120 years old. Despite their age, the trees still produce apples of at least three varieties.

From the new plantings, volunteers also hope to identify precisely what varieties grow on the homestead.

The original apple trees were likely planted by the Lucas family when they homesteaded the property in

The Lucas Homestead orchard holds a special sentiment for Ron Claussen, a volunteer naturalist with Castlewood Canyon State Park and former park employee who’s taken an interest in research-

ing the orchard’s history.

He explains the placement of the trees on the Lucas property, where they sit to the east of the family’s home on a slope, was strategic to ensure water drained to the orchard, the trees would receive adequate sunlight and that they’d receive wind protection.

“So, they would hopefully

survive,” he said.

Bases on his knowledge of the homesteaders’ lifestyles, he imagines how the Lucas family would have picked the apples for cooking pies, cobblers or other recipes that were “a real treat for them.”

Claussen said the effort to plant new trees comes at an important time. The orchard lost two trees this past year

Volunteers dipped the scions in wax to seal the cut ends. to blight issues, bringing the total trees down to seven. The volunteers hope to grow that number back to 10 or 11 trees once the grafting process is complete.

“They all have been very stressed over 100 years,” he said. “When the experts come out, they talk about how amazing it is that they’re actually still alive.”

Douglas County correcting precinct number mishap County also preparing to use new election software in primary

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Thousands of people in Douglas County were misinformed of their precinct numbers ahead of the March 6 caucuses in a mix-up the county is currently working to resolve.

Douglas County announced an error in a mass mailing sent to 7,000 voters intending to inform them their precincts changed when the county redrew boundaries last year. The mailing mistakenly told each of the recipients they were in the same precinct — precinct 339, which is in the Parker area. By law, Colorado precincts cannot exceed 2,000 voters.

A spokeswoman for the county said the mistake occurred when the vendor Douglas County uses for mass mailings was printing the letters — each was erroneously printed with the same precinct number and mailed out.

With caucuses being held on March 6, where affiliated voters gather by precinct to pick their favored candidates in an election, the county notified the parties once it learned about the mistake on Feb. 24, the spokeswoman said. New letters with the correct information hit the mail March 1. Resending the letters cost Douglas County approximately

$1,000 in postage.

The county was not concerned the error would create problems for parties running caucuses, and anticipated voters would receive the new letters with their correct voting precinct before March 6.

Douglas County adjusted precinct boundaries in 2017 following a 17 percent increase in registered voters, or approximately 35,000 people. Thanks to the growth, Douglas County Clerk and Recorder Merlin Klotz said some precincts were bursting at the seams.

The county hadn’t redrawn boundaries since 2015, when it bumped the number of precincts from 145 to 155. This year, there are 168 precincts.

In other election news, Douglas County will be using new election technology in this year’s primary election called Clear Ballot, and in doing so is the first county in the state to officially implement the young company’s product, although it was previously piloted in Adams and Gilpin Counties during the 2015 General Election.

Clear Ballot is a Boston-based company that largely broke onto the election scene in 2016. It announced in February its ClearVote system passed federal certification by the Election Assistance Commission.

Klotz said the county needed to replace its previous system, which like many across the country was years old, outdated and at the end of its lifespan.

Feeder schools implement policies for tech use ‘On the social end of things, it has done wonders for these kids’

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Schools in the Rock Canyon High School feeder system are taking steps to address students’ increasing use of technology in the classroom.

In August, Rocky Heights Middle School implemented a cell phone ban.

And last month, Timber Trail Elementary amended its policy on technology use. In addition to a cell phone ban, the school now prohibits the use of smart watches, fitness trackers, tablets, electronic music devices and personal computers during the school day.

In a society in which screens are increasingly replacing face-to-face interactions, the schools’ decisions encourage interpersonal skills and promote an effective learning environ-

ment, staff say.

“What’s really been nice is seeing the conversations that are happening,” said Rocky Heights counselor Lori Qui. “The kids are actually having a good time together in a very positive way.”

The average age of obtaining cell phones is getting younger, research shows. In 2010, it was 12 or 13, according to a survey conducted by Pew Research Center. In 2016, it dropped to 10 years old, according to a report by Influence Central, a marketing agency that surveyed 500 women on the impact of digital technology and electronic devices on families. Results revealed that 50 percent of kids had a social media account by the age 12.

The impact: more distraction in the classroom and an uptick of bullying over social media on school grounds, said Rocky Heights Principal Celine Wicks. Since the school implemented its cell phone ban, there have been fewer suspensions and issues related to bullying, she said.

Entrepreneurs create new way to shop for marijuana Leafbuyer aims to be marijuana industry’s answer to sites such as Priceline

Kurt Rossner and Mark Breen developed the business model for Leafbuyer in Rossner’s Castle Pines basement.

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As the 2012 vote loomed on Amendment 64 in Colorado, two self-proclaimed soccer dads from Douglas County who said they had little knowledge of the product in question — marijuana — were paying close attention.

Kurt Rossner, of Castle Pines, and Mark Breen, who lived in Castle Pines at the time and now resides in Centennial, were hunting for rapidly growing markets where they could launch a tech-based company.

“We wanted a hyper-growth industry,” Rossner said. “An industry that was just blowing up.”

They also wanted an industry that allowed them to work nationally and internationally. So, the duo started attending task force meetings regarding Amendment 64 and quickly brushed up on their marijuana facts.

“At the time we didn’t know anything about marijuana. We didn’t use the product,” Breen said. “We had to learn.”

Breen, 46, wanted to leave his career as an account executive for local TV stations in exchange for something new, he said. Rossner, 49, a longtime friend who built a tech career during the internet boom of the 1990s, came out of retirement to help him.

JESSICA GIBBS

When Amendment 64 passed they set to work forming a business model on a whiteboard in Rossner’s basement.

They recruited a web developer friend to help them in the process. Over the course of roughly eight months, they built a website similar to services like Trivago, Hotels.com or other sites that allowed consumers to compare prices and offers.

Theirs, however, was built specifically for the marijuana industry, and in 2013, their company Leafbuyer was born. From the site, consumers can find dispensaries near them, browse menus and shop the best area deals.

They’re different from their competitors, such as the marijuana review site Leafly, Rossner and Breen said, because they’re focused on helping people save money rather than providing product reviews.

“A lot of our competitors were building sites off the concept of Yelp,” Breen said. “We just found that the consumers really wanted to save money.”

Today, Leafbuyer users can compare

prices and deals at more than 8,000 dispensaries in 26 states. The company plans to expand into any state that legalizes medical or recreational sales of marijuana. That number today stands at 29 states with some form of legalized cannabis.

“California becoming recreational is huge,” Rossner said. “That state is five times the market of Colorado already.”

But there’s a benefit from Leafbuyer for dispensaries as well, the men said, and not just for consumers.

Michael Scialfo, general manager at Rocky Road Aurora, said they have worked with Leafbuyer since the dispensary opened in 2015. Leafbuyer helps their business reach its customers in a regulatory environment that can make it difficult for dispensaries to use more traditional methods of advertising, Scialfo said.

He referenced the 30/70 rule as an example, meaning a dispensary’s advertising shouldn’t reach an audience where more than 30 percent of people are under 21.

“I like the regulations. I think they’re

there for a really good reason,” Scialfo said, adding Leafbuyer helps them broaden their reach. “They’re another source, another vehicle for us to advertise with.”

Last spring, Leafbuyer went public on the OTCQB Market, an over-thecounter market for beginning-stage companies.

“We went from basically starting here on this table,” Rossner said while sitting in his Castle Pines basement, “to become, you know, an $80 million, publicly traded company.”

Soon, they hope to expand into the Canadian stock exchange, and have announced plans to incorporate blockchain, the same technology behind bitcoin, into their product. The technology will give them more insight and analytics into how consumers use their site, Rossner and Breen said, so they can show dispensary owners whether Leafbuyer is working for them.

“Blockchain is as big of a possibility as the internet itself,” Rossner said.

Leafbuyer has grown from two men and a white board in a Castle Pines basement to a company employing 35 people, operating offices in Los Angeles and Seattle in addition to its Greenwood Village headquarters.

Everyone involved wrote checks to get it off the ground, Breen said, explaining that leaving his corporate job to start a new company felt like a big risk. He and Rossner didn’t take a salary for two years. Now, they say, it’s starting to pay off. And they don’t have plans to slow down.

“We are raising capital. We are raising millions of dollars,” Rossner said.

“We now are taking this to the next level.”

Lakota drummers share heritage with Douglas County Pine Ridge, Standing Rock, Denver performers visit Cherokee Ranch & Castle

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Cherokee Ranch & Castle Foundation recently hosted a presentation organized by the Tipi Raisers, a nonprofit serving the Oglala Lakota of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota.

During the March 1 event, Lakota drummers and dancers from the Pine Ridge and Standing Rock and Denver traveled to Douglas County to participate in a “wicoti” with locals. A wicoti is a “gather-

ing of the people,” Jeannine Colley, education coordinator at Cherokee Ranch, told the audience at the beginning of the presentation. Throughout the evening at the venue near Sedalia, Lakota drummers played and sang ancient songs as they shared stories of their heritage.

Aside from bringing people together, the event served as a prelude to a youth summit that Cherokee Ranch & Castle Foundation plans to host this summer in collaboration with the Tipi Raisers, aiming to bring youth of all cultures together and to bridge gaps between Native American and non-Native American cultures.

More events will occur in the months leading to the youth summit, planned for September. For more information, visit the Cherokee Ranch & Castle Foundation website, cherokeeranch.org.

No easy fixes on horizon for housing crunch High costs squeeze middle class as supply lags behind demand, report says

WHAT DOES IT COST TO BUY? The following are the median sales prices of single-family homes in January for communities throughout the Denver metro area, according to the Denver Metro Association of Realtors. At right is the percentage increase or decrease as compared to January 2017.

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Even record levels of construction won’t fix the fact that demand will outpace supply in the Denver-area housing market for the foreseeable future, according to a new study that explores the housing affordability crisis across the region.

“Every conversation seems to focus on one issue or another, but the bigger picture is much more complex,” said Phyllis Resnick, the lead economist at the Colorado Futures Center, a Colorado State University-based public policy center that studies fiscal issues in the state. She co-wrote the report, titled “Factors Impacting Housing Affordability,” with Jennifer Newcomer at the behest of Shift Research Labs, the investigative wing of the Piton Foundation, a Denverbased philanthropic organization that seeks to improve the lives of low-income children and families.

“People say ‘If only we fixed the construction defects law, or if only we had more construction laborers, we could bring supply in line with demand,’ but there’s not one low-hanging fruit that will affect the trajectory,” Resnick said.

The report looked at the availability of housing in the rental and sales markets in the Denver metro area, using data ranging as far back as the 1980s.

The report, released in January, looked at a variety of factors affecting the housing market, including market trends, consumer preferences, labor availability and productivity, regulatory frameworks, land availability and materials costs, but also took a status report of what residents are experiencing. The housing climate is such that many prospective renters and buyers are feeling priced out of the market, with various fixes proposed by lawmakers, such as developer incentives, unlikely to have an appreciable impact anytime soon.

Half of renters statewide spend more than 30 percent of their income on housing, the report found, a situation economists call “cost burdened.” Wages statewide have climbed 11.4 percent since

Workers frame townhomes at the Platte 56 development in Littleton on March 1. According to a new report, housing vacancy rates in the Denver metro area will remain critically low for the foreseeable future.

DAVID GILBERT 2011, but average Denver-area rents are up 46.2 percent in the same period. Low-wage jobs increased at about twice the rate of high-wage jobs between 2001 and 2015, but most new housing is aimed at high-end buyers.

Housing vacancy rates are likely to stay around 1.5 percent for the foreseeable future, according to the report, below what industry experts call a healthy rate of 5 percent.

High demand for short supply saw median housing prices climb more than 10 percent annually in the metro area in January, according to the Denver Metro Association of Realtors. The median sales price of a single-family home hit $416,000 in January, while the median condo price jumped 17.4 percent to $285,000.

A move by developers toward high-end finishes, such as granite countertops and primo appliances, may be driving up housing prices more than raw materials, costs of which have fluctuated little amid the spike in housing prices, according to the report Bring it on home High housing costs have farreaching effects, said Carrie Makarewicz, a professor of urban and regional planning at the University of Colorado Denver.

“The fundamental thing about housing is it’s so crucial to health, social mobility

and everyday life,” Makarewicz said. “When housing is disrupted it can weigh on all three of those things. There’s a lot of research showing that people who spend too much on housing cut other things like health care, things for their kids, food and transportation.

They might have higher job turnover because they can’t afford long commutes.”

The problem doesn’t affect only low-income residents, Resnick said.

“When we talk about affordable housing, we’re talking about ‘small-A’ affordable,” Resnick said. “We’re talking about simply market-rate.

There are people with good jobs who can’t afford to live here.”

High housing costs keep families from putting money into other areas in the economy, the report says, and residents who cram into tight quarters to keep costs down suffer higher rates of illness and depression, and student performance suffers.

Land and labor shortages Despite the Denver area’s reputation for endless land to grow into, in reality much of that land is not zoned for residential development, and making the switch can be costly and time consuming, the report says.

“We found that on the land side, we have only five years of runway land for development,”

Resnick said. “We’re more constrained than we realized.”

On the labor side, a deficit of skilled workers may have an impact, but the general labor pool did not seem to fall short of need.

One surprising finding of the report, however, was that home construction has enjoyed little of the technological advances of other manufacturing processes, with homes still built in largely the same manner as 50 years ago.

“If you think about how we build anything else, like cars, we’ve had enormous productivity advances,” Resnick said.

“But there’s been very little in housing, partly because of stigma around manufactured housing. But today it’s great product.”

The fallout of Colorado’s decade-old building defects law, which made it easier for residents to sue condominium builders, is often blamed for slowing the construction of starter housing in the region, but that may not be the whole picture, Resnick said.

“The recession hit not long after the law did,” Resnick said. “Apartments suddenly looked more profitable. You had people who couldn’t buy again because they had foreclosed, and you had an influx of young people who didn’t want to commit to home ownership.”

It’s too soon to know if a legislative fix to the law that

CALM AFTER THE STORM

“When push comes to shove, we need more housing,” Resnick said. “We’re just not building enough to keep up.

Without that, we’ll never fix affordability issues. Getting there is interesting, though. We’ll need a holistic approach.”

Addressing housing affordability issues will take a variety of solutions, said Andrew Abrams, a Realtor at Vision Real Estate who sits on the Denver Metro Association of Realtors’ Market Trends Committee.

“In order to balance affordability, we need more density,” Abrams said.

“Finding that balance that works for everyone is hard, because no matter what, somebody has to give something up. That might be the integrity or character of neighborhoods, or it might be developer profits.”

Doing so is critical, Abrams said, because the people being priced out are “the foundations of our communities — teachers, nurses, police and firefighters.”

Municipalities and government agencies can explore different options, Abrams said, including adding or expanding accessory dwelling unit ordinances, allowing “carriage houses” behind single-family homes.

Other fixes could involve incentives or requirements for developers to offer a percentage of units below market rate, creating trust funds with real estate transfer taxes to be spent on affordable housing, or relaxing height limits and parking requirements.

SM

Not in their backyards Getting the public to shift their attitudes toward high-density housing could play a big role in easing the F problem, said Makarewicz, the urban planning professor.

“There’s still a great opposition to affordable housing in many suburbs in our region,” Makarewicz said. “You have residents who feel like all new development is bad, and they should be able to close the door on everyone who wants to move in behind them and say nobody can come after me unless they’re a millionaire. People have gotten carried away with what they think their property rights entail or permit them to do.”

High housing costs affect everyone, Makarewicz said, as businesses in increasingly high-end areas have trouble finding service workers, or may hike prices to cover turnover costs.

Cities can help by streamlining the F approval process, she said.

“Some of the ordinances that suburbs have required are over the top on aesthetics and practices,” Makarewicz said. “All these things we’re making developers do, are they for the good of the community or is it just keeping out residents who can’t pay the higher price because our regulations got so costly?”

Asked to name an upside of the housing situation, Resnick, the report’s author, was silent for a few moments.

“We still have time to address this problem before we become a completely unaffordable region,” she said.

“We can learn from other cities, and we can explore alternatives. It’s not too late.”

The county’s 243,000 registered voters won’t notice a difference in their voting experience under the Clear Ballot system, but Klotz said it will streamline ballot processing for his office behind the scenes.

The two schools still allow students to have their cell phones to call parents after school or from the bus. But the devices must be left in backpacks and turned off during the school day. Wicks pointed out that there is a phone in the counselor’s office available to kids and parents that need to get ahold of their children. Both schools also have a oneto-one laptop program, meaning every student has access to a laptop or tablet.

The feeder system’s high school, Rock Canyon, does not have a phone or device ban. Students in grades ninth through eleventh are expected to bring

The company’s ClearVote 1.4.1 system is one of the two certified election systems in Colorado. The other is Dominion Voting System’s Democracy Suite 5.2, which the majority of Colorado counties use.

Secretary of State Wayne Williams said Clear Ballot first needed to design its system to meet Colorado’s election standards, which require a paper ballot and include digital methods to review unclear ballots.

They have some good things they offer as well.”

Schools in the district are able to implement their own technology policies, said Paula Hans, the district’s public information officer.

“It’s obviously a school-by-school decision depending on what they are seeing and if they have concerns,” she said. “We just want to make sure we have students’ full attention.”

Although some teachers and parents were apprehensive in the beginning, Wicks said, the majority of feedback has been positive. She foresees the middle school’s cell phone ban staying in place “for a while.”

“On the social end of things, it has done wonders for these kids,” Wicks said. “Kids would say things that aren’t nice over social media. Those kinds of discussions aren’t happening as much.”

Columbine experience divides two survivors as gun debate reignites Proposal to arm teachers portrayed as way to save lives or as foolish fantasy

BY P. SOLOMON BANDA AND JAMES ANDERSON ASSOCIATED PRESS

Patrick Neville was outside, sneaking off to smoke with friends, inadvertently avoiding the outburst of gunfire at Columbine High School nearly two decades ago — but he did not dodge the heartbreak. A close friend died, and the anguish in his father’s eyes is seared in Neville’s memory.

Samantha Haviland was fundraising in the cafeteria and froze, uncomprehending, at the sound of screams just outside the window. Trance-like, she and others fled the room, then pressed against a wall of lockers, windows shot out down the hall. She, too, lost a close friend.

The horror of April 20, 1999 — 13 died when two student gunmen attacked the school in south Jefferson County — changed Neville’s and Haviland’s lives in different ways but inspired both to take action and serve others. It’s a calling they sadly share with survivors of the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, who are demanding the nation take action on school violence.

“Nineteen years ago when Columbine happened, we didn’t understand it. We were shocked by it. We didn’t think this was a thing. We thought we were outliers,” Haviland said. “We adults, myself and my generation, have failed these students where we have learned this is a thing and we still haven’t done anything.”

Haviland, now director of counseling for Denver Public Schools, disagrees with the notion that guns in teachers’ hands would deter mass shootings she fears have become all too common. Neville, a Castle Rock resident, became a Republican state legislator whose repeated attempts to arm teachers and school employees have been rejected by Democrats.

Both insist they’ll keep fighting.

And both concede a solution is far from reach.

“The vitriol behind this debate is pretty kind of nasty,” said Neville, whose answering machine in his Capitol office was full of angry messages, some threatening, over his failed legislation, which he plans to introduce again next year. “That’s how they operate, these nasty bullying tactics.”

“Theaters. Shopping malls. Concerts. Churches. All of these places that we go to, and we feel safe, and we should feel safe, and we have made them unsafe,” Haviland said. “We have failed to make decisions to make those places safe.”

Neville was a 15-year-old sopho-

more when the gunfire began.

He fled the school grounds and gathered with others at a nearby elementary school as the ordeal played out on television.

His close friend — Neville won’t use his name publicly as a gesture of respect amid the “hyperpolitical” school shootings debate — was killed.

“I was probably not making good life choices at that time,” Neville said.

“The friend who passed was doing everything right. Straight A’s. For me, it was a wake-up call that I needed to get my act together and that life is precious.”

He graduated, enlisted in the Army, served in Iraq, earned a Bronze Star and attained captain’s rank before leaving in 2013, completing college and entering politics. Now Colorado’s state House minority leader, Neville’s concealed carry legislation is one of his dearest political priorities — a possible way to safeguard children, including his three daughters, by

deterring would-be shooters.

Neville’s bill was defeated in late February — the fourth time he’s tried. The next day he was in Washington, D.C., meeting with President Donald Trump and others on school violence. Trump has suggested arming teachers as one strategy.

“The folks who are thinking about committing such a heinous act would be forced to know that they’re not going inside a gun-free zone,” Neville said. “Right now we just throw a sign above the door that says, `gun-free zone,’ which I think just welcomes them.”

Man who killed deputy had marijuana, alcohol in his system, report shows in front of Riehl’s door when the shooting began. The sheriff ’s office announced that morning Parrish had died and four other officers and two civilians were injured in the incident.

The autopsy for Parrish, conducted on Dec. 31, shows he was shot multiple times, including in the head, chest and abdomen.

Riehl’s autopsy, conducted on Jan. 3, confirms he died of multiple gunshot wounds. Investigations into law enforcement’s use of force are Parrish ongoing.

Authorities said Riehl was killed that morning as SWAT officers entered his apartment following a 90-minute standoff with law enforcement. Riehl was shot four times, once in his left arm, once in his right hand and twice in the back, according to

The man who killed Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office Deputy Zackari Parrish had alcohol and a large amount of marijuana in his system during a Dec. 31 shootout with law enforcement in Highlands Ranch.

That’s according to the Douglas County Coroner’s report for Matthew Riehl, released Feb. 27.

The gunfire immediately struck Parrish, who was standing directly

the autopsy report.

Toxicology findings show Riehl had three times the legal limit for driving of marijuana in his system. There were 15 nanograms of delta-9 THC — the chief intoxicant in marijuana — in his blood. The legal driving limit for marijuana is 5 nanograms, according to the Colorado Department of Transportation website.

His blood alcohol concentration was .03, less than half the legal limit for driving in Colorado. The report also stated that caffeine was found in his system, and it did not list any other substances.

Law enforcement reports released in the days after the shooting show family and friends reported to police Riehl went through a years-long battle with mental illness, including post-traumatic stress disorder from a deployment to Iraq and bipolar disorder. They did not believe he was

taking his medication and some worried he was a danger to himself.

Riehl was known to law enforcement in Wyoming, where he attended law school, and in Colorado. University of Wyoming police investigated him for posts he’d directed toward the school’s law college and emails sent to law professors mentioning violence. In Colorado, Riehl’s family had requested police conduct welfare checks on him.

Riehl also had a strained relationship with Lone Tree police, following a dispute over a speeding ticket.

Prosecutors at the time did not believe charges against Riehl would be appropriate, as he had not made direct threats or ignored any requests from police for him to stop contacting them.

On Dec. 31, Riehl used four firearms in the shootout with police, and authorities said he had several other weapons in his apartment.

ate” is a brutal word. It’s final, and it comes without nuance.

It gets the job done if your vocabulary is, QUIET uh, um, like, limited, DESPERATION or if you need something right now in the heat of the moment.

“I hate you” works if you are a marginalized teenager.

“I hate you” works if your old Datsun won’t start.

“I hate you” works if you are on a cabCraig Marshall bage-soup-weight-loss Smith diet the week before your wedding.

I have not used the words “I hate” before in my columns, but if I were to

use them, I’d use them like this: I hate hate groups.

I strongly, incontrovertibly, irreversibly dislike many things.

Opera. Can’t take it. Don’t understand it. Perhaps if they sang in English? Nah. Not even then.

Failures to say “Thank you” get my goat.

However, I don’t hate anything or anyone enough to parade or prank, bully, bomb, target, burn to the ground, or call in the Weathermen.

Others love to hate.

Noelle Phillips wrote in The Denver Post, “In 2017, 21 hate groups called Colorado home, representing a wide swath of extremist views such as white supremacy, anti-immigrant, antiMuslim and anti-LGBT views, as well as black nationalist groups known for

hating Jews and white people.”

This is concurrent with all of the other strong dislikes that are going around the president, between Republicans and Democrats, and amid the perception of “toxic masculinity” in our culture.

The “Summer of Love” is long gone.

I have heard some strange things coming out of these hate groups. They love their kind. How can you love someone who is a hater? It’s antithetical.

White supremacists love other white supremacists?

Crips love other Crips?

Neo-Nazis love other Neo-Nazis?

I strongly dislike rap. So I don’t listen to it. Live and let live. I’m not headed to Kanye’s with a pipe bomb.

In some parts of the world, hating is a career. With June weddings coming up, how many of you have booked Syria for

your honeymoon?

My mother and father not once said, “Son, we hate the Russians.”

Nor blacks, Jews, or gays.

I think my father strongly disliked Ohio State. But that’s different. And I know he respected the university.

The Wolverines versus the Buckeyes is referred to as a “friendly rivalry,” and that’s what it is most of the time.

It’s not “The Troubles.” That was the conflict between Protestants and Catholics in late 20th-century Northern Ireland.

As an educator, I was sometimes strongly disliked, especially at the end of the semester when grades came out.

A LETTER TO THE EDITOR Fight for fair funding As neighborhood schools lose student population due to demographics or charters, Douglas County School District needs to review their School Based Budgeting process because it may not be meeting needs of students in low-enrollment schools.

couple of months ago, many of us made our commitments to our New Year’s resolutions or our goals for this year.

Law of averages and historical data tell us that there is a certain percentage of us who have WINNING already abandoned WORDS our resolutions and goals.

Can you believe that? Of course you can’t, because that is not you, it is not who you are.

Maybe it is a friend of yours or maybe it is someone from work, those are Michael Norton the people who set aside their dreams and goals and have decided to wait again until next year to pick up the chase. But it certainly is not you.

You may have had a temporary setback, we all do, but you realized that a temporary setback is all that it was, and you are once again in the pursuit of your own success.

A slight slip up in your diet, a day or two missed from the gym, a little extraordinary spending, or a chapter or two missed from writing your book … no worries.

For others it might be a problem, for

you, you are resolute in your commitment, you have already jumped back in and are charging hard again, or you have realized where you fell off the path and you are committed to starting again today. It happens to us all and it is OK. Believe it or not, there are even people who have determined that setting goals or trying to live up to New Year’s commitments aren’t reality at all. They believe that only other people have the ability to set goals, have dreams, and do what is necessary to achieve success. It can’t be for them, as success and winning are only for other people. But that is not you, you stand firm in your desires and how you define success. You are driven with purpose and know that you are one of those people whom others only talk about when it comes to achieving greatness.

When given a rope, there are some people who use that rope to pull other people down. Instead of climbing the rope or holding on to the rope to be pulled forward, they exert all of their negative energy and try and pull others down as they give up on their own goals and dreams. That is not you. You are the one who, when passed a rope, you pass it along to the next person be-

Yoga is practical method to achieve more ease in aging “Yoga” can be kind of a taboo word.

You might have heard it’s all about spiritual healing and heavy breathing in a sweaty room. Maybe you think it’s just for trendy California youngsters or runners who want to improve their AGING knees. The truth WELL is this: Yoga has something to offer everyone.

Yoga improves strength, flexibility, and balance. It also assists in filtering mental chatter and promotes calm and clarity. Through a focus on breath and Jen Wilking movement, we become aware of how the body and mind work together.

The goal is not to put your foot behind your head; the goal is to have the ease of movement that you need to live your life the way you want to live it. To reach the top shelf. To get on and off the floor easily to play with children. To get in and out of chairs and cars independently. To dance, hike or play pickleball. To live with less pain.

To create stability and awareness in order to prevent falls.

As adults, we don’t often practice balancing. In yoga, this is a primary focus. Single-leg standing (with or

cause you are already beyond any need for the rope. You are the one who uses the rope to lift others up so that they too can meet and exceed their goals and dreams.

Oftentimes people give up too soon.

They only set far-reaching long-term goals. So, when the first obstacle comes along, it seems like a barrier that they cannot get around, and they have already been defeated. They see their goal as being just too far away. This is not you. You have set near-term goals and milestones that you know pave the way to future long-term success. Any obstacle or barrier seems like only a pebble on the path of achievement and you step on it and crush it as you press on.

Although many people do set their goals or commit to resolutions on the first of the year, many will submit to the first temptation that takes them off course. That first doughnut or bagel brought to the office, that first chance

without a wall or chair for support) trains the body and mind to work together to make adjustments at the ankle and hip. While flexibility and strength tend to decrease with age, the regular practice of yoga reduces the effects of aging and supports a full, active and meaningful life.

It’s never too late to begin a yoga practice. The perception of yoga might be that it is for the very strong, flexible, and young, but the reality is that people of all ages, stages, sizes and abilities are finding that yoga is a wonderful tool for a healthy and vibrant life.

There are variations that permit you to get the full benefit of each posture without any crazy contortions. Props like chairs, blocks, bolsters and walls will support your practice. These modifications and variations make yoga accessible and effective to all who are interested in participating.

Professor Mark Clarke, age 71, of Highlands Ranch began yoga two years ago. Here’s what he has to say about his experience: “I had been retired a couple of years and was looking for a way to keep in shape.

A friend recommended yoga, so I checked it out. I discovered that, contrary to my impressions, yoga was not an exclusive club for youthful contortionists, but rather an ancient practice for self-discovery full of enthusiastic many of my columns. But I don’t wake intent upon bringing anyone down.

What a life it would be to plan against others all day.

“Honey, where’s my bandolier?”

The truth? This is a county, a state, a country, and a world that comes with verdant campgrounds for the intolerant.

Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast.net. at having a beer after work instead of the gym, that first chance to ditch church and instead hit a powder day (OK, that one might be forgiven, just as long as it is a powder day). Again, this isn’t you, you have a very clear path, a strong sense of will power. When you are looking back weeks or months from now you will embrace and cherish the sacrifices that you have made in order to remain on your journey of success.

Others quit. You stay the course.

Others make excuses. You own your setbacks. Others can only see what’s right in front of them. You see all of the successful tomorrows of your life.

So how about you? Whether you made New Year’s resolutions or set goals for yourself or not, I would love to hear how you are doing and how you stay on the path of success at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we can stick with it and stick to it, it really will be a better than good week.

and friendly people. The physical side of practice was just what I needed — improved strength, balance, and flexibility. And the philosophical aspect — the integration of calm reflection into the day — provided a structured way to relieve stress and increase awareness.

“I spent a month or so visiting all the yoga studios in the area and talking to the instructors. (The first session is often free or reduced fee.)

I found people to be sincere in their convictions about the benefits of yoga and eager to answer my questions.

There seems to be an almost infinite number of types of yoga and it was easy to find the ones I wanted. I now practice three or four times a week. I feel better and have gotten rid of all the little aches and pains that were bugging me. And, the hip pain that I feared was going to require surgery has yielded to the regular attention that yoga sessions have provided. Yoga

has made a significant contribution to my quality of life.”

Practicing yoga is a fun and rewarding adventure. It will help you find comfort in your skin, graceful movement in your body, and clarity in your mind.

Arvada Center explores dark side of American Dream

Top right: Fireflies are one of the most well-known creatures that use luminescence. Several species of fireflies live in Colorado, but they do not glow because they do not have the organ required to produce light. A few outliers have entered the state, so firefly flashes are occasionally seen in open spaces around Colorado. Bottom right: The Butterfly Pavilion sent some Arizona desert hairy scorpions to be part of the museum’s Creatures of Light exhibit.

Let there be lights

Glowing life forms fascinate visitors at Denver Museum of Nature & Science

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Denver Museum of Nature & Science has played host to countless numbers of traveling exhibits over the years. These exhibits come from all over the world, and from some of the most respected institutions of learning and exploration.

But that presents a challenge for museum staff — how to make an exhibit that visitors may have seen before feel fresh.

“Any time we get an exhibit, we look for ways to add our own stamp,” said Eric Godoy, program specialist with the museum. “We go through our own collections and work with scientists to add something new. We also have great

IF YOU GO WHAT: Creatures of Light WHERE: Denver Museum of Nature and Science 2001 Colorado Blvd., Denver WHEN: Through June 10 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

COST: Comes with entry ticket Adult, $16.95 Junior (3 to 18), $11.95 Senior (65 and older), $13.95 INFORMATION: www.dmns.org organizations to work with.”

That’s how “Creatures of Light: Nature’s Bioluminescence,” the museum’s new exhibit, running through June 10, came to feature contributions from Westminster’s Butterfly Pavilion and the Denver Botanic Gardens.

“The best part of working with organizations like the gardens, DMNS or the zoo is that we all do different things, and we do them really well,” said Mario Padilla, entomologist with the Butterfly Pavilion. “We all have the same missions of education, but in different areas. So, these kinds of

opportunities allow us to provide a new kind of experience.”

The exhibit was organized by the American Museum of Natural History in New York, in collaboration with the Canadian Museum of Nature in Ottawa and The Field Museum in Chicago.

The exhibit shines a light on creatures that other natural things that blink, glow, flash and flicker thanks to bioluminescence and biofluorescence. Perhaps the most immediately recognizable of these creatures will be fireflies, even though the insect only rarely lights up Colorado’s evenings. But there’s a wide swath of beautiful and bizarre creatures from the world over to examine.

Some of the most beautiful glowing items don’t do a whole lot of moving — it’s things like minerals and fungi. To make learning about these materials more interactive, there’s a black light feature where guests can see which minerals glow, and how brightly. And thanks to Dr. Andrew Wilson, assistant SEE LIGHTS, P17

here are certain expectations that come with seeing an Arthur Miller show — it’s going to be intense, heady and dramatic.

His 1947 masterpiece “All My Sons” certainly fits the bill. It’s the story of a manufacturer who sold faulty parts to the U.S. military during World War II, and the unforeseen impacts on his family and those he loves.

“It’s the story of a family that is stuck, and can’t come COMING to terms with their ATTRACTIONS past,” said Emma Messenger, one of the leads in the Arvada Center’s production of the show. “When you can’t face certain losses, it’s difficult to move forward.”

“All My Sons” runs at the Arvada Center, 6901 Wadsworth Clarke Reader Blvd., through May 3.

Performances are at 7:30 p.m. on Thursdays through Saturdays, 1 p.m. on Wednesdays and 2 p.m. on Sundays.

Not only does the show examine the bonds of family, but it also delves into wartime struggle, personal responsibility and the illusions of the American Dream.

“It’s so beautifully written that it fell completely natural playing these characters,” said Sam Gregory, who plays Joe Keller, husband to Messenger’s Kate. “It speaks to the core of what makes us Americans, and I think that’s what makes it speak to everyone.”

“All My Sons” is the third and final entry in the Center’s Black Box Repertory Company Season, which includes “Sense and Sensibility” and “The Electric Baby,” both of which are still running.

“The show really looks at what happens when people isolate themselves to the point where they’re only focused on their own families,” Messenger said. “If one focuses on their one small tribe, the world becomes smaller and smaller. You can be trapped in your own backyard.”

curator of mycology at the Denver Botanic Gardens, guests can also see living glowing mushroom — specifically Armillaria mellea and Panellus stipticus.

“Fungi such as lichens and the mushroom genus Cortinarius have tissues that fluoresce under a black light,” Wilson explained. “Right now I’m trying to figure out the best conditions and cultures for optimal glow, but the cultures I have are doing pretty well. When visitors see it, it’s an eerie green glow that the fungus is producing all by itself.”

For more mobile creatures, the exhibit starts out on the land with an examination of fireflies, glowworms and scorpions — all of which have their own important reasons for luminescence.

“It’s poorly understood why scorpions fluoresce,” said Padilla, who brought some live Arizona desert hairy scorpions to the museum for the exhibit. “We think they might use their exoskeleton to detect their

environment and determine if they’re in danger of exposure.”

From there, the exhibit goes to the water, where up to 90 percent of

animals at depths below 700 meters are bioluminescent. First, visitors can stroll across an interactive Puerto Rican lagoon that lights up a trail

to medical care during the war, an airplane propeller, propaganda posters, photographs, letters and diaries, and many other personal objects. The exhibition also features a two-thirds scale biplane — a locally made Curtiss JN-4 “Jenny” replica of the planes used by U.S. Army pilots in training during the war.

In addition to the exhibit, there’s a film series, Views and Brews, that includes signature drinks, wine and beers. And at 7:15 p.m. on Thursday, March 8, the series will be featuring last year’s titanic blockbuster, “Wonder Woman.”

An ancient tradition made new The art of using shadows to tell stories goes back thousands of generations — an art form taken to new levels by Catapult.

The dance group performed on season eight America’s Got Talent, and features eight dancers, a drop, a few lights and a choreographer. The avantgarde show blends dance, music, and the contrast of light and darkness to create stories exploring a variety of themes and subjects.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Glen Hansard at Boulder Theater Irish singer-songwriter Glen Hansard has been making music for most of his life, and while he first rose to prominence as a member of The Frames, it was his collaboration with Czech musician Markéta Irglová as the Swell Season that made him a name to know.

Together the pair worked on the film “Once,” and took home the Academy Award for Best Original Song for “Falling Slowly” from the film. In 2013, the Broadway adaptation, “Once, The Musical,” won eight Tony Awards including the top musical prize itself.

Since then, he’s gone his own way, releasing three solo albums — the third of which, “Between Two Shores,” was released on Jan. 19 of this year. It’s full of the quietly lovely jazz-influenced folk that he’s perfected over his career. Tracks like “Why Woman” and “Lucky Man” are two of the best love songs of the year, and the album as a whole overflows with warmth and intimacy.

So, audiences will be lucky to spend

of flashes from tiny “pyrotechnic” plankton.

The deeper the visitors goes into the ocean, the stranger the animals become. This includes female anglerfish, which have their own built-in fishing rod: a modified dorsal fin spine topped with a lure that pulses with bacterial light. Or the ponyfish, which glows along its belly, camouflaging against the down-welling light from above to avoid being seen by predators lurking below.

“Life has evolved in some amazing ways, and I think it will really surprise and intrigue people,” said Godoy.

“I love when folks come through and say, ‘I didn’t know that.’”

While the cumulative effect of the exhibit is both enlightening and beautiful, it’s the local touches that makes the exhibit special for visitors.

“Science literacy is very important in this day and age. Every advancement in society has been at the hands of science in some way shape or form,” Wilson said. “As a result, it’s important for our scientific institutions to support each other in providing new and exciting ways to engage the public and motivate them to learn more about this amazing world we live in.”

Castle Rock Adventist Hospital set to unveil painting Cindy Welch’s work was commissioned in 2017 by facility’s CEO

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Sunset’s bright reflection ties Cindy Welch’s new watercolor painting to the land around Castle Rock Adventist Hospital, and the artwork was commissioned in late 2017 by hospital CEO Todd Folkenberg. The painting, with the town’s eponymous rock appearing in the background, will be unveiled in the lobby — where it will hang — during a public reception at 11:30 a.m. (unveiling at 12:30 p.m.) March 16. The community is invited to enjoy this most recent addition to the artist’s series of Castle Rock buildings.

“We want Castle Rock Adventist Hospital to be a hospital of healing for our patients, and believe there are many components of healing for our patients,” Folkenberg said.

“One is the healing power of art and artwork, which is why we have a hospital gallery and a community

gallery filled with artistic inspiration we can share with patients and visitors.”

Welch, a Colorado native, has lived in Castle Rock for 25 years, painting and photographing her world — as well as using her commercial art skills to create advertising for clients. She says “Color is my passion,” and held a solo show in the hospital gallery in 2016.

She operates a community website, CastleRockBound.net, and belongs to the Castle Rock Arts Guild. She will have signed and numbered limited-edition prints of the new painting available for sale at the reception and will donate 20 percent of proceeds to benefit the hospital’s Healing Arts Program.

Also on the busy artist’s calendar in 2018: She is on a committee to organize the annual “Court the Arts” event on June 9 and 10 — an outdoor show co-sponsored by the Castle Rock Arts Guild and the Parker Arts Guild on the same day as the Ducky Derby. Watch for announcements.

And she won a poster contest, held by the Douglas County Fair and Rodeo Board, to celebrate the 100th year of the fair. Her art will be featured on 2018 marketing material.

The Falls Event Center is becoming a premier wedding venue With a Rocky Mountain backdrop, and the option of catering from the restaurant where you had your first date, The Falls Event Center offers fantastic perks for any couple’s wedding day.

JULIE TAYLOR/SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

At over 12,000 square feet, the Littleton venue is 15 minutes from Denver, making it accessible to guests flying in for the big day, allowing them to easily skirt around the city.

Cindy Shoemaker, the general manager at The Falls, said one of the main attractions is their open vendor policy.

An open vendor policy means that couples can choose details like photographers, videographers and catering, event from food trucks to homemade dishes. Besides bar service, the bride and groom have unlimited options.

“Everything else is your vision; anything and everyone you want to have,” Shoemaker said.

“Little man ice cream brought their trailer down here, Illegal pete’s, and Cranellis Italian, in Lone Tree, are here quite a bit as well.

The food trucks are fun, and I really liked when we had groups bring in food from different restaurants and set up food stations.”

When it’s not a professional company providing the food, Shoemaker said some couples, especially those with rich cultural backgrounds, opt to bring in homemade food.

“A lot of weddings are not using caterers, but the family is cooking food from their heritage. We’ve done some Indian weddings, Persian, Polish, African and Asian,” Shoemaker said. “We have a lot of Hispanic weddings here as well. I love seeing all the different nationalities and different menus come through the door.”

If the thought of cooking for up to 320 guests it too daunting, Shoemaker can offer suggestions to help the couple through their decisions.

“We have a vendor recommendation list.

It’s all the vendors we have worked with, all people who have worked in the building, and we know they’ll come in and take care of our clients,” she said.

Aside from the open vendor policy and location, couples flock to The Falls for the view and atmosphere.

“When you’re out on the courtyard, it’s facing west,” she said. “So you have a close-to-full panoramic view of the mountains and can watch the sun set.”

While watching the sun dip behind the peaks, guests are surrounded by The Falls signature waterfalls on the courtyard.

Nothing in life matches the thrill of wedding planning, with its endless array of choices for dresses and tuxes, festoons of flowers, music, beverages, cakes, and honeymoon destination.

However, after the wedding, responsibilities are consolidated and obligations that were once “yours” or “mine”, become “ours.”

Though wonderfully romantic, the first year together can be stressful as two unique people begin to build their lives together. Here are a few suggestions from experts on how to address some of the “business” aspects of your wedded relationship.

Be honest about your financial history Owing money to Uncle Same, credit card companies or your college can be an obligation you’ll now take on together. When you marry, your assets and debts are combined. This can be a challenge if the issue is not discussed before marriage, particularly if one partner has a high credit score, but the other doesn’t.

“One of the best things a soon-tobe married couple can do is know your partner’s financial history,” said LeAnne Merciez, a loan officer with Universal Lending in Greenwood Village. “You need to understand their debt history and their wealth. And you need to understand your own financial history.”

Merciez said she frequently sees couples who don’t know the other person’s credit score, or understand what a credit score is.

“I’ve had couples come in my office where one has a 500 credit score, the other has 800 and it’s the first time they’re learning this information and they find out they can’t qualify for a house,” she said. As a standard for all financial professionals, we have to take the lowest credit score of both borrowers. Understanding this fundamental information is important for planning a future together.”

The Colorado housing market is highly competitive and as a result, homes are on the market for a short window of time. To understand the benefits of renting or owning a property, talk to a mortgage banker. Based on your financial needs and goals, a mortgage banker can help you determine whether renting makes sense, or if you can afford to purchase a home and begin to build value through real estate ownership.

Save money by consolidating insurance plans: For a positive impact on your car insurance rates, be sure to get a quote as a married couple to find out how much you may save. Typically, men find they have an improved car insurance rate when they marry. Also, be sure to find out the benefits of rental

or home-owners insurance, based on your needs.

Consider life insurance to prepare for the unexpected: Holly Mullins, a Farmers Insurance agent in Aurora, says employer-provided insurance policies are positive benefits, but they’re more like “renting” an insurance plan.

“The company can take it away at any time and if you lose a job, your employer-provided policy doesn’t go with you,” says Mullins.

If you are planning to purchase property together, another option is to purchase an insurance policy outside of work.

“If you are getting married and it takes both incomes to meet your mortgage, and something critical happens to one of you, your loved one will then have the responsibility for the whole mortgage,” said Mullins.

Be transparent about your dreams, goals and skeletons: To get on the “same page” early in marriage, be forthcoming and transparent about your financial obligations, as well as your dreams, goals and mistakes.

“Have a conversation about your hopes and goals for the future,” said Wendi Strom, a financial advisor with Lotus Financial Partners in Denver.

Create a system for finding your combined hard copy and digital assets: It’s not fun, but it is important to protect your combined assets, and know how to access to them, by creating a system for finding where information is located.

“I’ve had clients who haven’t been able to access their spouse’s military benefits because they couldn’t find a card or document,” said Strom.

“Knowing the location of your shared information can save precious time in an emergency.”

Couples should have combined knowledge of where the following documents are located: • •

Insurance plans List of family and emergency contacts

• • • • •

Estate documents — will, living will, power of attorney Military discharge papers, birth certificates, marriage certificate Social Security cards, passports Digital logins and passwords Bills that are paid online

Experts at Highlands Ranch Travel know that after couples say, “I do,” they are ready to travel to not just romantic, but also unique locations.

Experts say honeymoons are becoming less traditional, more unique JULIE TAYLOR/SPECIAL TO CCM

The top 10 list for romantic vacations are outdated as today’s honeymooners turn toward tangible experiences. Linda Eyer, who has been a travel consultant at Highland’s Ranch Travel Agency for 17 years, has seen the trend come in hot and heavy.

Eyer said millennials, in particular, seem eager to explore every nook of the world.

Some want to visit the more obvious spots, such Hawaii, St. Lucia or Antigua, but there is a rise in unique travel. As an example, Eyer said she has seen couples honeymoon in the village where ‘The Hobbit’ was filmed in New Zealand.

“A honeymoon isn’t necessarily going to a tropical beach and drinking Mai Tais for a week,” Eyer said. “It can be anything they want.”

Some couples want to see the northern lights, and others want to cruise the Amazon River, or go to temple in Nepal for a blessing on their union.

Another major shift in the industry is how the expenses are handled. Instead of the honeymoon being the new couple’s only extreme vacation, it has become a single tick on their long bucket list.

“Money doesn’t seem to be playing a huge part of it, because a lot of them don’t look at

it as a once in a lifetime, huge expense,” she said.

The other change that Eyer has noticed is how the newlyweds want more experiences in their travels.

“Not everyone wants a helicopter tour over an Italian vineyard, some want Disney,” she said. “We want the experience to be about them and what they want.”

These days, Eyer’s clients want a memorable experience, and are willing to pay for that on more than just a single special occasion.

“They want the experience, not the money.

I think what we’re seeing is a whole evolution of travel,” she said.

Highlands Ranch Travel Agency has offered full-service travel guidance for more than 30 years, making it the second-oldest business in Highland’s Ranch. All of their agents have a wealth of experience, and each one offers a specialty.

Eyer said she always starts each consultation with a lot of questions, and ends with a personalized vacation.

“We do try to personalize the travel experience to what the person wants, not just a packaged trip,” Eyer said.

For more information on booking a honeymoon, vacation or special trip, visit the Highlands Ranch Travel website at www. highlandsranchtravel.com.

Honeymoon trends continue to change from a romantic setting to something more cultural for couples.

A proposal over Dracula Ballet

An unexpected proposal over ‘60 minutes’ and before ‘Golden Girls’

Cheyanne Cooper

Carolyn Grinier

We were going on 8 years and I was very impatiently waiting. We had been through so much and are high school sweet hearts. He took me to see The Dracula Ballet. I love ballet. I always wanted to be a dancer. After the ballet was over, he asked me if I wanted to take a picture together, which caught me off guard because he hates taking pictures. I was confused because he was standing 3 feet away from me, and I couldn’t get him to come closer. When I looked over at him to see why he wouldn’t come closer he was down on one knee. There were hundreds of people around us because we were right outside the Elle Caukins Opera House and several shows were letting out at the same time. This was so exciting and overwhelming!

It was after 60 Minutes, and just before The Golden Globes, when Dennis came to sit with me on the couch. “Are you awake?,” he asked. “Sure.”

I said. (60 Minutes wasn’t that compelling that Sunday and I might have dozed off.) He said, “I want to get married. Will you marry me?”

We’d known each other for three years and loved living together for a year and a half. We own our home jointly, and share concerns and joys about our kids and grandkids. We are well into the fourth half of our lives and had both have been married twice before. I bragged often that this relationship feels so solid and is so fun just as it is that I didn’t need to get married. Now here he was out of the blue, looking like someone’s grandpa, looking like my prince and adorable.

All I could think of was, “What can I possibly wear at 75 at my third wedding?”; And I said it out loud too. He laughed as he usually does at some of the things I say.

Oh, and then I said, “Yes”

A chilly proposal

Proposal by seashell

Camillie Pfaff

Lesley McDonald

Lonnie and I met in Phoenix while attending college at Grand Canyon University, but we both grew up in Colorado. We were driving back home for winter break, and as we were passing through Silverthorne, Lonnie pulled into an area that we always love to stop in. It was about 5:30 a.m., and was a frigid 4 degrees. He suggested we stop at Starbucks to get a hot coffee, so I agreed and afterwards we pulled into a parking spot next to our favorite bridge in town that crosses the river. He then suggested that we let our coffee cool off by going outside. We scurried over to the bridge, both shivering and shaking our coffee cups. He then proceeded to say, “Camille, I want to spend the rest of my life with you...”, but before he could get the rest out, he then suggested we go back to the car because of how cold it was.

Although I was a little confused at this point, trying to figure out what his next move was, I went along with it. After getting back in the car, I asked if we were going to continue our drive, in which he replied that there was a question that he wanted to ask me. He pulled the ring out of his pocket, and asked me to marry him. I said yes, of course, after I was able to wipe my tears of pure joy away. I found out that he decided not to propose on the bridge because he was afraid to drop the ring in the river. Despite everything, it was the perfect proposal and the intimacy made it one of the most memorable experiences of my life.

Jason and I decided to get both of our families together for a fun beach day. When I arrived with my parents, he met us in the parking lot and came up with this story about how difficult parking was, and offered to hop in the car with my dad to help out while my mom and I found our way down to the beach. Little did I know, he took this opportunity to ask for my dad’s permission.

After we all got settled at the beach, Jason asked if I wanted to take a double-seat kayak out on the water. Jason and I both love to be out on the water and we often went paddle boarding and searching for shells and shark teeth while living in Florida, so I of course agreed to go with.

Once we got out to the sand bar, Jason put his mask on and dove into the water. The water was a bit chilly, so I opted to stay on the kayak for a few minutes before jumping in. Jason popped his head up and mentioned how many awesome shells were down there. I excitedly told him to go find some and bring them up to the kayak. Jason dove down and swam back up to the surface holding this beautiful clam shell. When he placed it on the kayak next to where I was sitting, I thought it was still alive.

I said to him, “I think there’s something in it.” As Jason opened up the clam shell, I saw the beautiful ring inside. Still treading water and fighting his nerves, he asked, “Will you marry me?”

Engagement Stories A proposal with an assist from Rick Springfield

A proposal by dachshund

Keilani Porter

Lindsay Renkel My now-fiance, Keith, and I had just spent a wonderful evening with friends at a fall festival when two of them abruptly, and randomly, announced they needed to leave. At that point, Keith suggested we head home ourselves. It seemed quite early to be heading home, but I agreed. Upon our arrival home, Keith rushed in the house and I slowly made my way through the door. As I walked in, I could not believe my eyes. Rose petals and lit candles lined the path from the garage into our living room, which was completely decked out with candles, balloons, flowers, and other beautiful adornments. Meanwhile, as I was processing how these decorations got into our house, asking myself, ‘Did Keith disappear at some point tonight?’ and trying to determine what exactly was going on, Keith got our beloved dachshund, Levi, from his crate and told me Levi had something to ask me. I looked down at Levi to discover him wearing a custom-made sweater. which said, &”Will you marry my dad?” That’s when Keith got down on one knee and proposed! Of course, I said “Yes!” Come to find out, our friends were in on the plan, which is why they left early, and Keith had enlisted the help of a coworker to decorate the house and get Levi dressed in his sweater while we were away. I also discovered afterward that Keith had been so excited that in order to avoid spilling the beans to me, he had told many people of his plans, including the front desk guy at the gym. And no one ever slipped up. I was completely oblivious to what was going on! Incorporating Levi was the icing on the cake, because he is so special to both Keith and me.

Jesse and I were on vacation in my favorite city, New Orleans, belatedly celebrating my 21st birthday. We were exploring the French Quarter, and when we got to the Saint Louis Cathedral, he asked my dad to take a picture of us out front. Once the picture was taken, Jesse looked at me and said, “I wrote you something.” He read me this beautiful piece he wrote comparing myself and our relationship to elements of the Earth. My dad recorded the whole thing and caught the tears of excitement I shed when Jesse got down on one knee and presented to me my dream ring. Once we left the cathedral, we headed straight to this bar on Bourbon Street where Jesse had set up with the band to sing, ‘Jessie’s Girl’ to me upon our arrival. When we arrived, the band stopped their set and pulled me up to the stage. They announce I was a really life Jesse’s girl, and we had just gotten engaged. The bar-goers all danced around me as the band played, ‘Jessie’s Girl’.

A proposal by mini-adventure Teresa Dinh He said, “I’m a simple guy who enjoys adventures, so I would love to share them with you. What do you say?” I took a leap and said, “Sure, I would love to take a mini-adventure with you.” The mini-adventure started with just one detail: the time. All else, including location and events, were hidden. Multiple mini-adventures later, I discovered the simple childlike wonders of life again.

One Sunday after church, a mini-adventure changed our lives. Jorge took me to 16th Street Mall. While passing D&F Clock Tower, a lady came out of the tower and asked Jorge: “Hey, are you James?” He said no. She said, “Oh! That’s too bad. James reserved a tour, but he didn’t show up.

Would you like the tour instead? I looked at Jorge and shrugged, “why not?”

The lady took us to the top floor and left. Weird, I thought, as old Jazz music played in the air. The place was nicely decorated with flowers, candles, chocolates, and even champagne. I told Jorge, “The skyscraper you’re working on across the street looks pretty at sunset, let’s take photos.” We took selfies everywhere. A beautiful dinner was on a table.

“I’m hungry, let’s eat it,” he said. I responded, “We can’t, this is other people’s food.” When Jorge brought out my favorite bottle from Castello Di Amoroso out of nowhere, I gave in and ate James’ food. After eating, we danced. Then our song came on, ‘I Knew I Loved You’ by Savage Garden.

I came to realization this wasn’t James’ event. Jorge kneeled down with a ring and asked me to take a grand adventure with him in marriage. My reaction was peaceful and calm, “Yes, honey, yes.” Jorge was probably expecting excitement, but his thoughtful mini-adventures made me immune to the element of surprise.

ThunderRidge principal loses battle to cancer Chris Tabeling had been at the school since 2004

‘His resilience, optimism and strength of character was admired by all. Chris was a charismatic leader who deeply cared about every student and every staff member in this building and I know this news will greatly affect the ThunderRidge High School community.’

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The community is mourning the loss of ThunderRidge High School principal Chris Tabeling, who died from cancer at the age of 46 the morning of March 4.

“He was passionate about his families — his family at home and his family at school,” interim Superintendent Erin Kane wrote in an email to parents. “There is no doubt in my mind that his two Tabeling families are why he battled so long and hard against this disease.”

Tabeling was from Pueblo and attended Colorado State University, according to his Facebook page. He is survived by a wife and two young daughters. He joined the ThunderRidge family in 2004 as assistant principal, where he stayed for 10 years before he was named principal.

In a Q&A on the district’s website, Tabeling said he loved to mountain bike. His first job in education was as

Erin Kane Douglas County Schools superintendent

a math teacher. His family, students and staff inspired him. He called the ThunderRidge community an “extended family.”

“I feel so humble and proud to serve as the principal at ThunderRidge High School,” he is quoted saying. “…This is just such a special place. It’s the perfect job for me.”

Tabeling was diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer more than two years

ago, according to the school district.

Hours after the announcement, community members used social media to share condolences and honor Tabeling’s impact on the high school in Highlands Ranch and its families.

He was compassionate, caring, a good man, they said.

“You will be missed and I know our family is grateful for your contributions to our kids, TRHS and our com-

munity,” one woman wrote.

“A significant loss to our community,” another person commented. “May God bless the Tabeling family in these most difficult times.”

In her email to parents, Kane said she is devastated by the loss. She enjoyed getting to know Tabeling over the past couple of years.

“His resilience, optimism and strength of character was admired by all,” wrote Kane. “Chris was a charismatic leader who deeply cared about every student and every staff member in his building and I know this news will greatly affect the ThunderRidge High School community.”

Nikki Ballow, who had been an assistant principal, was named acting principal.

The District Crisis Team will be at the school in the coming days to support staff and students, Ballow wrote in an email to ThunderRidge families.

She points to the district’s resources on handling crisis, available at www. dcsdk12.org/grief-and-loss-resources.

Information on memorial services will be shared on the school’s website and social media channels.

“Chris was an amazing mentor and a great friend, and he truly believed in TRHS. He will be missed by all,” Ballow wrote. “Please remember that the Grizzly family is strong. Together, we will get through this.”

Boys volleyball takes first step to be sanctioned

Jaguars roar into tourney’s Final Four Rock Canyon makes key plays in fourth quarter to defeat Overland

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Rock Canyon’s boys basketball team was top-ranked for a majority of the season in the CHSAANow.com poll.

The Jaguars were the top-seed in

this season’s Class 5A state tournament pairings but came into the Great 8 round on March 3 feeling overlooked because it seemed like the Jaguars were not playing well.

Rock Canyon lost to Chaparral and ThunderRidge down the stretch of the Continental League season and then had to rally to post a 65-64 overtime Sweet 16 victory over Eaglecrest.

“We weren’t trying to give the impression of not playing well,” said coach Kent Grams. “It was like your first heartbreak after

losing to Chap and then losing to ThunderRidge. But they were two good teams. They were in the Great 8, too.”

However, the Jaguars made enough plays in the fourth quarter and advanced to their second straight Final Four with a 54-47 quarterfinal victory over Overland.

“It feels unreal,” said guard Sam Masten. “We kind of came into the game a little bit underrated.

oys volleyball has been trying to open the door to get the sport sanctioned by the Colorado High School Activities Association for around 20 years, according to John Prusinowski.

Well, boys volleyball at least got its foot inside the door when the sport, girls wrestling and unified bowling were approved Feb. 21 by the CHSAA Board of Directors to begin pilot seasons.

Prusinowski is president OVERTIME of the Colorado Boys High School Volleyball Association which has started play this spring season with 56 teams and will be under the watchful eye of the CHSAA during the two-year pilot program for both boys volleyball and girls wrestling.

“It’s the first step with the CHSAA with their new byJim Benton law,” said Prusinowski The CBHSVA was started in 1996 with nine teams and is funded and administered by volunteers with the purpose of promoting boys volleyball and overseeing the sport to facilitate sanctioning by the CHSAA. Under a newly adopted CHSAA by-law, boys volleyball, girls wrestling and co-ed unified bowling were the first to have pilot programs be considered. However, the Classification and League Organizing Committee, the Sports Medicine Committee, the Equity Committee and the Legislative Council are hurdles the three sports have to clear in order to gain support their sports.

Several steps have been outlined by the CHSAA to gain accreditation. For instance, boys volleyball must continue to show support from athletes and schools, plus the Equity Committee — which virtually stalled the sanctioning attempt of boys volleyball last fall — will have to be satisfied. However, the fact that girls wrestling is also a pilot program will help.

News that boys volleyball is a pilot program has stirred interest.

Rock Canyon coach Kyler Barker, who played volleyball at Chaparral as a high schooler, had 22 players out for the team when the program started but had 49 try out last month, and he actually had to made five cuts to fit players onto three teams.

“The pilot program legitimizes the activity,” said Castle View coach Kevin Cochran.

Many school athletic directors allow boys volleyball to use their gyms free of charge and some schools award varsity letters for boys volleyball. Others award club sport letters.

The CBHSVA rules dictate that players’ grades are monitored by coaches; athletes and parents sign and adhere to a code of conduct; and coaches must follow concussion protocol.

Seven new teams have joined the CBHSVA this season, including an Adams 12 team that will play out of Thornton High School. There are three divisions in the 5A CBHSVA league and there is a 3A league for programs with new teams with new players. Many teams are co-op SEE BENTON, P27

The Sabercats fell behind, 23-7, late in the first period but pulled to within three points twice in the third period. But the Mustangs pulled away for a 52-43 victory. Castle View ended the season with a 20-5 record and set a school record for most wins in a season.

Valor takes hockey success to next level

Eagles shut out Monarch in the state semifinals

Valor Christian goalie Trey Hirschfield protects the short side of the net as Monarch’s Liam Carvalho tries to take a shot during the state semifinal hockey game on March 1 at the Pepsi Center. Hirschfield made 22 saves as the Eagles shut out the Coyotes, 4-0, to advance to the school’s first-ever hockey championship game.

JIM BENTON

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Valor Christian’s hockey team was virtually untested during the regular season .

So when the seedings were announced for the state hockey playoffs, there were doubts about the Eagles’ strength of schedule and their No. 3 seed.

Valor, however, shut out secondseeded Monarch 4-0 in the state semifinals on March 1 at the Pepsi Center in Denver and was scheduled to play topseeded and undefeated Regis Jesuit in the March 6 state championship game.

During the regular season, the Eagles lost non-conference games to Regis and Monarch.

The closest regular season win was 3-2 over Cherry Creek and the Eagles had an 8.9-goal margin of victory heading into the playoffs.

Valor took a 20-2-0 record into the championship game. The Eagles won the Highlands Conference with a 16-0-0 record.

“I’m proud of our kids,” said coach George Gwozdecky, who is in his third season as Valor’s hockey coach after 19 years as University of Denver coach. “The school made a commitment to hockey a few years ago. The kids have worked hard this season.

“We knew we were going to be a good team and we proved it in the fall league by winning the championship.

If there was anything I would have liked to have during the winter season was more competition and not having a running clock half way through the game. We were winning by 8, 9 ,10 and 11 goals and that’s isn’t good for anybody, the winning or losing team.”

The Eagles avenged one of their two losses with the win over Monarch, a program that had played for the state championship the past four seasons, and had the opportunity to again challenge Regis, the defending state champs, in the title game.

Valor was seeking to win the

school’s first state hockey title.

Senior Tim DeBord scored a hat trick in the second period and goalie Trey Hirschfield made six of his 22 saves in the scoreless first period in the semifinal victory over the Coyotes.

Meanwhile, the Colorado High School Activities Association hockey committee on March 2 seemed to heed Gwozdecky’s words when recommending league alignments for the 2018-19 and 2019-20 seasons. The committee changed the current four-conference alignment to six leagues of six teams.

Valor will be in the proposed Metro 1 conference with Regis, Mountain Vista, Castle View, Cherry Creek and Chaparral.

teams with players coming from other district schools.

Area schools that have boys volleyball teams include Castle View, Cherry Creek, Arapahoe, Ponderosa, Rock Canyon, SkyView Academy, Valor Christian, Heritage, Legend, Faith Christian, D’Eveyln, Mountain Vista, Wheat Ridge, Thornton and two-time defending 5A state champion Ralston Valley.

Boys volleyball hopes to be a sanctioned sport for the spring of 2020.

Chaparral community service project Chaparral head boys basketball coach Tellus Truesdale was seeking a way to have his players become involved in community service.

His assistant Jeff Riley and team mother Stacey Giles had the idea for Chaparral players to help teach younger elementary-school children. Pine Grove fifth-grade teacher Michelle Parker also liked the idea.

Wolverines freshman, sophomore, junior varsity and varsity players rotate so they don’t miss a lot of school

and go to Pine Grove elementary school twice a week to help Parker’s students with reading, writing and math and sometimes demonstrate a few basketball moves.

“It has worked out great,” said Truesdale. “The kids loved having our guys come over and really looked up to them. It helped the guys in our program to understand that people are always watching them and that the decisions they make have an impact on more than just themselves.

“There’s a built-in accountability.

They can’t tell the kids to listen to their teacher and do their work if they’re not doing the same things themselves.”

Parker’s Pine Grove class came to a Chap game this season armed with signs with the players’ names on them.

“Younger kids love having the high school players come to class,” said Giles. “The students worked hard for them and they got to see positive role models.”
