Why are teachers leaving?

School district officials say numbers don’t reveal any major trend

By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com Niki Mitchell has watched a number of fellow teachers leave the Douglas County School District in recent years. Some have gone to other school districts. Others have taken early retirement. A few have left the profession altogether.

who has taught in the district for 23 years.

“Teachers are feeling demoralized. This has become a toxic place to teach.”

District officials maintain turnover rates are not alarming and say teachers who leave do so more for personal and philosophical reasons rather than workplace dissatisfaction. They also blame those critical of district policies for politicizing the issue and creating an anti-district agenda.

But interviews with 12 elementary, middle school and high school teachers and one school psychologist pinpoint specific district policies and initiatives as reasons for many teachers’ departures. Of those interviewed, one is a current district teacher, six

The Outlets at Castle Rock was packed with bunny-earswearing, pancake-eating kids March 25. More than 500 children and parents came out for the sixth annual Easter Bunny Breakfast. “We just really enjoyed coming last year,” said Parker resident Jamie Murphy, who attended the event again this year with her daughter. “It’s a great opportunity to meet up with friends and see the Easter Bunny.” The morning included free pancakes from Flippin’ Flapjacks, face painting, a magic show and a visit from the Easter Bunny.

A revised agreement between Castle Rock and Douglas County allows The Canyons South development off Crowfoot Valley Road to increase its density from 968 units to 1,506 units on the 1,584-acre property.

The agreement also allows the developer to work more closely with the Town of Castle Rock on its request to be annexed.

Bill Detweiler, the town’s director of development services, stressed that the amendment to the intergovernmental agreement between the town and Douglas County does not guarantee annexation of the Canyons South property, which is south of Crowfoot Valley Road, east of Timber Canyon and north of Founders Parkway.

Snowstorm strands more than 100 motorists Accidents and zero visibility closed major highways March 23

More than a foot of snow in Douglas County March 23 caused bad road conditions and stranded motorists.

By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Areas of Douglas County saw up to 20 inches of snow March 23, with dangerous conditions and multiple crashes closing highways and stranding more than 100 motorists. Some public safety officials called it the most challenging day since a 2006 blizzard brought several feet of snow to Colorado.

Despite pleas on social media from the Colorado State Patrol, Douglas County Sheriff’s Office and Colorado Department of Transportation for people to stay off the roads during the blizzard, vehicles still flooded the highways.

“We try to do out best to advise folks and sometimes they heed our advice and sometimes they don’t,” said Sgt. Derek Castellano, of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office.

The National Weather Service reported 16 inches of snowfall in Castle Rock, Castle Pines and Highlands Ranch and 20 inches in Parker. Wind gusts reached up to 45 mph, limiting visibility and creating very hazardous traveling conditions.

Major roads, including Interstate 70 and C-470 east and west of the metro area, and I-25 between Castle Rock and Colorado Springs, were closed for large portions of the day because of numerous accidents. Even snow plows and emergency vehicles were having trouble in the heavy, blowing snow.

By late afternoon, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office reported 84 calls by stranded motorists asking to be rescued. By evening, there were 71 calls still pending to assists motorists, Castellano said.

The Colorado National Guard was sent in to assist with rescue efforts on I-25 and State Highway 83.

Eventually, all motorists were res-

cued and taken to a shelter in Kirk Hall at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. The shelter, which was prepared for 100, reached capacity at 9:30 p.m. Another dozen motorists seeking shelter were then directed to New Covenant Church in Larkspur.

Castellano said many motorists were stranded because they drove around barricades and got stuck. Others were unprepared for blizzard conditions.

By 9:30 a.m. March 24, the Kirk Hall shelter no longer was needed, while the Larkspur shelter was cleared by noon.

On its Facebook page, the sheriff’s office thanked “the numerous fire departments and search-and-rescue teams that assisted with rescue operations throughout the evening.”

Storms like the one March 23 don’t come along often, Castellano said. “It’s the most challenging one we’ve encountered since 2006.”

overly-exacting evaluation system that demands time teachers don’t have, a district that doesn’t value their work and concerns about the corporatization of education.

A protest on March 9 by Ponderosa High School students in Parker, who wanted answers from the district about why their favorite teachers were leaving, brought the issue into the spotlight as the school year begins to wind down, evaluations are completed and teachers make decisions for the next school year.

Between the 2013-14 and 2014-15 school years, the district’s teacher turnover rate was 16.7 percent, according to the Colorado Department of Education. That would account for about 561 of the district’s 3,361 teachers.

That’s higher than some neighboring districts, including Cherry Creek (9.3 percent), Littleton (8.3 percent) and Jefferson County (14.7 percent), but below the state average of 17.3 percent.

The turnover rate in Douglas County in the 2009-10 school year — the year a reform-minded school board was elected — was 10.2 percent. By 2013-14, the rate had risen to 17.3 percent, according to CDE. Jeremy Meyer, the CDE’s assistant director of communications, said the department does not comment on when a district should be concerned about turnover because the number would vary depending on the district’s size and other factors. Turnover statistics for the 2015-16 school year are expected to be released in early April.

The school district disagrees with CDE’s numbers, saying the state counts teachers who leave their positions for promotions or other jobs in the district as turnover. Douglas County keeps its own statistics, excluding those categories, which show slightly lower rates.

“I think we all have concerns when there is a really excellent teacher who chooses to go somewhere else,” Douglas County Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen said. “However, when you look into it more, sometimes the situation is that we had four years of pay

freezes in the district and people can go get their years back on a salary schedule in another district. I completely understand that. Sometimes, we have people who are more philosophically aligned with another district. I can understand that, too. We ultimately want people to be happy. We want people to find the very best place for them and their families.”

District salaries were frozen from 2008 to 2012 because of budget shortages. In 2009, county residents elected school board members — including Meghann Silverthorn, Doug Benevento and John Carson — who would vote for numerous reform policies over the next several years. The board hired Fagen in 2010.

Former Highlands Ranch High School Principal Jerry Goings, however, believes the teacher turnover rate is worrying.

“In my opinion, a district like Douglas County, having a spike like that (in turnover) over the last three years or so, it’s not right,” said Goings, who retired after the 2014-15 school year. “If you look nationally, you do have higher turnover rates in areas of poverty and school districts that operate in that

because it’s very stressful — it’s hard to do that. But Douglas County doesn’t have that issue. We should always compare ourselves to our neighboring districts, Cherry Creek and Littleton.”

Good turnover vs bad turnover Whether turnover is positive or negative depends on who’s leaving and for what reasons, district officials said.

“Sometimes, turnover is not a negative thing,” Fagen said. “Sometimes, we all agree that it’s not a fit or there are other circumstances.”

Turnover among teachers who are rated poorly or ineffective also can be a positive, Chief Human Resource Officer Brian Cesare said.

“You have to look at turnover situationally,” he said. “For example, if we had 100 percent turnover in the ineffective category, we’re not going to complain about that. Every number has to be mirrored against what the reality of the situation is.”

According to district numbers, turnover Turnover continues on Page 4

Bethany Wessel left her position as music teacher at Trailblazer Elementary in Highlands Ranch in early March.

“I am not a union member. I have not ever complained about my salary, even when we had a pay freeze for several years. I have always had highly effective and effective ratings,” Wessel said. “I left my school after 12 wonderful years due to poor administration, which I believe is the direct result of Liz Fagen’s training of them.”

Wessel started in the district in 2004 when she said DCSD was considered the “number one place to work in the state of Colorado.”

“The district touts giving voice and choice to students to have a say in how they learn and do things, but teachers are not being given the same privilege,” she said. “We’re being told our decisions and our style has to fit these certain requirements and we get one actually observed formal evaluation a year to prove that, and then they cram everything else into a computer program.”

Wessel said she is staying out of public schools for now.

“I do teach band and choir at my school as a private contractor before school starts each day, and I teach private music lessons and direct musical theater camps all over Denver,” Wessel said. “This is where I’ll keep my focus for now.”

TEACHER TURNOVER

Turnover Continued from Page 4

among teachers rated highly effective is low — about 4.9 percent. But several of the teachers interviewed, who left the district, said they were rated highly effective.

And a parent from Chaparral High School, whose son graduated from the Parker school in 2014, said the unusually high number of teachers leaving the school in one year indicates a problem exists.

After her son’s junior year in 2012-2013, parent Eda DiPasquale said, “Chap lost 33 teachers and the principal.”

Reasons for leaving Many of the teachers interviewed blame market-based pay and a new evaluation process for much of the fallout with the district.

Teacher and principal evaluations are required in all Colorado school districts under 2010’s Senate Bill 191, also called the Educator Effectiveness Bill. Districts were allowed to adopt either the state’s teacherevaluation program or create their own.

DCSD is among six districts that designed its own.

Called CITE, Continuous Improvement of Teacher Effectiveness, it has six components for measuring teacher effectiveness: Outcomes, Assessment, Instruction, Culture and Climate, Professionalism and Student Data. Each of those categories contains a number of standards with a subset of criteria — totaling 31 in all — against which teachers are evaluated, according to the district website.

The evaluations are part of DCSD’s pay-for-performance program. Based on self-evaluations, evaluations by administrators and other factors, such as use of the district’s Guaranteed Viable Curriculum, each teacher is rated “highly effective,” “effective,” “partially effective” or “ineffective.”

Pay increases are tied to those ratings, as well as a market-based pay scale that pays some instructors more than others depending on what they teach. For example, a math teacher would typically make more than a social studies teacher and those who teach in high school generally earn more than elementary school instructors.

Chrissy Kavas Thorsen left Ponderosa last year for Cherry Creek High School because of the increased workload the evaluation process demands and the opportunity for better pay. She had worked at the Parker school since 2000.

“I looked at my job and knew my family deserved more,” the English teacher said.

“I’m a mother. We are trying to raise three boys and we weren’t able to make ends meet. As a teacher, I am loyal to my kids. It hurt me to leave them. It stung a lot, but I had to do what was best for our family. It was the hardest decision I’ve ever had to make.”

What the survey says In the 2015 TELL survey, 71 percent of Douglas County teachers said they don’t believe that CITE accurately measures their effectiveness — a response considerably higher than the state average of 55 percent.

The Teaching, Empowering, Leading and Learning Colorado survey is an anonymous statewide survey of licensed, school-based educators to assess teaching conditions at the school, district and state level.

The survey is administered every other year by a partnership of agencies including: CDE, the Colorado Association of School Boards, the Colorado Association of School Executives, the Colorado Education Association and the Colorado League of Charter Schools.

Kamala Schuster taught in the Douglas County School District for 21 years, most recently at Soaring Hawk Elementary in Castle Rock. She left DCSD two years ago and now teaches technology at Rolling Hills Elementary in the Cherry Creek School District.

“The amount of stress that I had and the low morale of teachers throughout the district affected my decision,” she said.

“Although I was rated highly effective, it was because I worked countless hours beyond my time at school to jump through hoops and prove my value as an educator. Because I am an overachiever, I couldn’t find it in myself to accept a lower rating.”

Running schools like a business Several teachers also dislike the district’s business-like approach to education.

Maureen Curran taught French and English as a Second Language for five years at Castle Rock Middle School before leaving the district in 2013 for Smoky Hill High School in the Cherry Creek School District.

“I’m against the way that they are trying to run schools like a corporation,” Curran, a teacher for more than 20 years, said. “It created a really bad work environment. I didn’t feel like I could be myself as a teacher, as a mentor or as a person. I didn’t feel valued.”

Tom Horiagon, father of two third-graders at Acres Green Elementary in Lone Tree, also said changes made by the district are morphing public education into a business.

The district “is moving in the direction of central control of teaching at all levels and commoditization of the teaching profession,” said Horiagon. “The pay-for-performance fad needs to be understood against the backdrop of a very wealthy county that simply doesn’t want to pay for anything.”

But Fagen, reiterating that district officials always try to work directly with teachers who have concerns, said some issues boil down to policy differences of opinion.

“I would encourage any employee in the district who feels torn to sit down Fagen and have conversations with people and make sure that they are torn based on facts, because there are a lot of rumors,” she said. “And, sometimes, people hear those things, believe it, and get upset.”

Anti-district agenda at play?

Several school board members and district administrators rebuff the assertion that teacher turnover is unusually high, that workplace satisfaction is low or that teachers are leaving because of policies and initiatives implemented since 2009.

“I think that there’s an agenda going on,” board member James Geddes said.

“Some way or another there is an antiteacher pay-for-performance sentiment, anti-Superintendent Fagen and antiteacher evaluation agenda.”

Geddes pointed to the fact that only a small fraction of Ponderosa’s nearly 2,000 students joined the protest and some students even disagreed with it.

Board member Anne-Marie Lemieux

Bo Sager Former Northridge Elementary teacher Bo Sager began teaching fifth grade at Northridge Elementary in Highlands Ranch in 2005. He was a teacher with DCSD for 10 years, was evaluated as a highly effective teacher, he said, and chosen as an Apple Award finalist in 2011.

The Apple Awards is the district’s program for honoring its best teachers. He left Douglas County at the end of the 2014-15 school year.

Sager now teaches fourth grade at the Slavens School, a K-8 school in South Denver that is part of Denver Public Schools.

Cristin Bleess Former Castle View High School teacher Spanish teacher Cristin Bleess helped open Castle View High School in Castle Rock in 2008-09. She left at the end of the 2013-14 school year. The 2013 school board election results, which maintained the district’s direction, sealed her decision to leave the district, she said.

A teacher for nearly 20 years, Bleess was president of the Colorado Congress of Foreign Language Teachers, a recipient of numerous awards, including a statewide Excellence in Teaching; a Fulbright Exchange teacher; and the district’s world language coordinator.

She said she was consistently rated highly effective.

disagreed.

“I spoke to really every one of those over 100 students that were in attendance,” she said. “They absolutely were not there at the direction of anyone except themselves and the concern over the loss of their teachers.”

More than 1,500 people also signed a student-initiated change.org petition in support of the student protest.

“We can talk about numbers and we can talk about partially effective and highly effective and who’s leaving and who’s not leaving, but these are human beings and these are the people who are having a huge impact on our kids,” board member Wendy Vogel said. “We have to honor that. We have to listen to that. It’s a big deal.”

Lemieux, Vogel and board member David Ray, a former principal in the

WHAT OTHER TEACHERS ARE SAYING “I left when it became clear that decisions that were good for kids were not being supported in the district, and if I were to do what they wanted me to do I would be part of the problem. I worked hard against it for a long time but couldn’t get any traction. It was killing me, so I had to quit.”

— Beth Bennett, a school and clinical psychologist for 18 years, most recently at Sagewood Middle School in Parker. She now works primarily at Children’s Hopsital Colorado.

“I still know many teachers that continue to work in Douglas County who are unhappy, discontent and exhausted. They, unlike me, were not able to leave the district because they financially can’t afford to risk losing even a week or two of pay. They will never make what I made the last few years of my career because of the new payband structure.”

— Mark Phillips, who spent 26 years in the Douglas County School District. He most recently taught fifth grade at Gold Rush Elementary in Parker. He retired in 2012 at the age of 50.

always put kids first,” he said. “I left Douglas County basically (because of) a loss of faith in district administration.”

The performance-based salary model used by the district also was an issue, he said.

“I received a $40-per-month raise for hours and hours of extra documentation showing I was a highly effective teacher,” he said.

Sager also said the district limited his earning potential because he taught elementary school, which he said is unfair. Under the salary band structure, fourth and fifth grade teachers fall in the lowest band.

“I found a home in Denver Public Schools where I feel I get to continue doing what I love,” Sager said. “People notice my smile is back. I don’t go to work, I go to school. I hope people understand the importance of that statement.”

— Mike DiFerdinando

“I loved teaching at Castle View High School. The students, staff and administration made for an ideal teaching situation, but everything that the BOE and upper administration were doing made being a teacher in DCSD a miserable place to be,” she said in an email interview. “I didn’t buy into their initiatives such as the (Guaranteed Viable Curriculum), the voucher program, the pay brackets, pay-for-performance and the new teacher evaluation system ...Things weren’t going in a positive direction.

Many teachers, including me, were not happy and felt like our hands were tied.

I spoke up when I could, talked to those who would listen, and when that wasn’t enough and the community voted in more like-minded board members, I knew that would be my last year teaching in DCSD.” After leaving Douglas County, Bleess and her husband, Adrian, joined the Peace Corps. They are now serving as volunteers in Albania where she works as an English teacher trainer.

district, were elected last November. The campaign symbolized the opposition to the school district’s reform policies of the past several years and ousted incumbents Kevin Larsen, Craig Richardson and Richard Robbins. Each challenger won with at least 58 percent of the vote.

Board member Doug Benevento, however, echoed Geddes’ sentiment that opposition to district policies is political.

“Frankly, there are those who like to point out the negative in the district and never acknowledge anything good,” Benevento said. “They never acknowledge our accredited with distinction.

They never acknowledge the fact that we are keeping our highest quality teachers, as we determine them to be. They never acknowledge the explosion in the AP exam participation we are having because there is, for some, a political agenda that is trying to tear the district apart.”

MORE FROM FAGEN “I was a teacher in Douglas County School District for 18 years, but left two years ago due to the climate and morale, direction of the school board, as well as the evaluation system. I was rated as an effective teacher in DCSD, but only after putting 50 hours of my own time into uploading evidence and writing reflections into their CITE evaluation system.”

— Julie McLean, who taught kindergarten through second grade, most recently at Heritage Elementary in Highlands Ranch.

She is the instructional coach at Shelton Elementary in Golden.

“We do look into turnover whenever it is brought to our attention and we do work do keep the very best teachers here in our district.”

“When you have somebody in a school that people have relationships with and they want them, it’s a big deal for them to leave. However, at our level of the organization, we have to work to support our principals in navigating that and that’s what we try to do. We also try and work directly with teachers who have concerns.”

— Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen, who encourages teachers with concerns to approach her and other members of her administrative team for conversations.

With art, ‘these kids change people’s lives’ Elementary students donate 200 scarves and hats to Douglas County human services

By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Art students at Sage Canyon Elementary School in Castle Rock are learning they can make a difference.

“I just want our kids to see that they can do good and help other people,” said Stephanie Stoner, a Sage Canyon art teacher who recently donated close to 200 hats and scarves to Douglas County’s Department of Human Services. “Even though they don’t have money and can’t vote, they can still make a difference.”

The donation came from parents and community members who crocheted and knitted scarves for a yarn-bombing installation project at the school.

Yarn bombing is a type of graffiti or street art that uses colorful displays of knitted or crocheted yarn or fiber rather than paint or chalk. People cover trees, lamp posts, benches, bike racks and other items with colorful yarn as a form of public art.

The students didn’t know it was coming, but during Christmas break Stoner and volunteers yarn-bombed the school, wrapping scarves around pillars in the hallway.

Nate and Laura Cusinato and Molly Bennett recently delivered more than 200 crocheted scarves and knit hats to the Douglas County Department of Human Services to be given to community members in need. Courtesy of Douglas County “When the kids came back after break, they were so excited to see this artwork hung up,” Stoner said. “The texture was amazing.”

Stoner took her kindergarten through sixth-grade art classes on art walks throughout the school and conducted field lessons on yarn bombing and installation art.

“It was a great learning experience where they can say somebody did something beautiful, but also functional — art for a purpose,” Stoner said.

When the installation was over, Stoner wanted to donate the scarves to foster children and families in crisis. She reached out to Douglas County’s Department of Human Services and found out that after the December holidays, donations slow down immensely. So they planned for the school’s donation to be a refill.

“I’m a huge believer in philanthropy through artwork,” Stoner said. “We really wanted to do something where we could help people who live right where we are so that our kids could see the impact of what they have done.”

On donation day, three students joined Stoner. When they walked into human services, the students started flinging the scarves around with joy and excitement.

“That’s the heart of why I’m a teacher,” Stoner said. “I always liked art, but it also gives me that natural venue to help other people.”

The artistic donation also delighted David Weaver, Douglas County commissioner and board chairman.

“Seeing a local school get involved in helping provide a basic need many of us take for granted warms the hearts of those of us here at the county,” he said.

“The beauty of the scarves and hats was only outdone by the beauty of the spirit of the students, parents and community members involved.”

But this is not the first or last time Stoner’s students will give.

While teaching at Mesa Middle School, her students held an art auction and used the $15,000 raised to fund 93 micro-loans in 13 countries. Her students also have donated 90 bowls to the Crisis Center’s annual Empty Bowl fundraiser.

At Sage Canyon, Stoner has ideas of having her students weave mats from plastic bags for the homeless or animal shelters. She also hopes to start a school garden and have students host their own empty bowl event with soups made from the garden and bowls made in class.

“As a little person, you don’t feel that you can make a big difference, but I see so many times that these kids change people’s lives,” Stoner said. “That’s what I want to instill in my kids, that they can make a positive change in the world.”

Town Council approved earlier this month the 2016 Conservation Rebate Incentive Program, which offers rebates as part of an overall water-conservation plan.

The incentive program rewards residents transitioning from highwater-use landscaping and inefficient irrigation to other water-smart alternatives. It’s funded with money from water restriction violations and tier-four conservation surcharges.

Funds are limited, and rebates are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.

A household can qualify for each rebate only once.

The rebate program includes: • Smart irrigation controllers — 50 percent of the controller cost up to $300 • Rotary nozzle retrofit — up to $5 per nozzle

• Rain sensors — 50 percent of the cost of the sensor up to $50 • SmartScape renovations — $1 per square foot up to $1,500 for high-water-use plant material, such as Kentucky bluegrass, removed and replaced with either Xeriscape or hardscape.

Applications are available at CRgov.com/rebates.

Water plan The Town Council also approved the 2016 Water Use Management Plan. Castle Rock Water uses watering restrictions to help residents efficiently use water outdoors during warmer months.

By staggering water use on an every-third-day schedule, Castle Rock Water can maintain positive pressures throughout the water system, ensure appropriate fire flows and allocate time for water reservoir recovery.

Restrictions will be in place during June, July and August. Residents must follow a circle, diamond, square schedule that will be mailed to their

homes around May 1 and is posted at CRgov.com/waterschedule.

Also, to promote efficient water use, outdoor irrigation will not be allowed between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.

However, there are no time or day restrictions associated with hand watering.

These restrictions allow residents to water only during cooler, more humid times of day. This is when evapotranspiration — a measurement of how much water needs to be used to replace water lost through evaporation and transpiration — is at its lowest, and watering is most effective.

Both the rebate program and watering restrictions are outlined in Castle Rock Water’s Water Efficiency Master Plan. Since the plan was adopted in 2006, Castle Rock residents have exceeded and maintained the conservation goal of 18 percent or 165 to 135 gallons per person per day.

An updated plan was recently approved in 2016 and sets a goal for an additional 18 percent (122 to 100 gallons per person per day) of water savings by 2055.

Democrats choose state, local candidates Staff report Several candidates for local and state races emerged at the Douglas County Democratic Party Assembly at Chaparral High School in Parker on March 19.

How to care for snow-damaged trees Special to Colorado Community Media After the March 23 snowstorm that dumped up to 2 feet of wet, heavy snow in many parts of the Denver metro area, homeowners may be wondering how to protect and repair snow-damaged trees in their yards and neighborhoods.

Although the first impulse may be to start sawing when a tree is damaged, homeowners should first assess the situation to avoid hurting themselves or further damaging the tree, said Keith Wood, community forestry program manager for the Colorado State Forest Service.

Wood and the forest service offer the following tips, adapted from International Society of Arboriculture recommendations: • Check for hazards. Before approaching a tree, examine your surroundings to avoid making contact with downed utility lines or standing under broken, hanging branches.

• Contact city officials if necessary. Trees between the street and a city sidewalk may be the responsibility of city crews.

• Assess the damage. If a tree is healthy overall and still possesses its leader (the main upward branch), most

S2

of its major limbs and 50 percent or more of its crown, the chance is good for a complete recovery.

• Be careful knocking snow off branches. This may cause the branches to break. If you must remove snow, gently push up on branches from below to prevent adding additional stress.

• Remove broken branches. This minimizes the risk of decay and insects or diseases entering the wound. Prune at the branch collar — the point where a branch joins a larger one — and be mindful of potential pent-up energy if the branch is twisted or bent.

• Don’t over-prune. With the loss of some branches, a tree may look unbalanced, but most trees quickly grow new foliage that hides bare areas.

• Don’t try to do it all yourself. If the job requires running a chainsaw overhead, sawing from a ladder or removing large branches or entire trees, contact an insured, certified arborist. Professionals often are listed in the phone book under “tree services.”

For more information about tree care and protection, visit the Colorado State Forest Service website at www. csfs.colostate.edu. To find an ISA-certified arborist, visit www.isa-arbor.com.

“There are a significant number of improvements needed,” Detweiler said. “We’re in negotiations right now requiring the applicant to build out Crowfoot Valley Road before development occurs, along with other things. This is requiring infrastructure before rooftops.”

Although the developer, Lowe Residential Corp., filed the formal request for annexation into Castle Rock earlier this year, it has been meeting with the town for about three years. The increase in density for the development eliminates a proposed golf course, driving range and clubhouse to accommodate more “Motivated Seller” single-family homes. A private recreation center, parks and approximately 316.3 acres of public open space is also included in the site plans.

“The town of Castle Rock has clearly proven it is one of the best places to live in America, as noted by the numerous awards the town and its staff have won in recent years,” said Erik Clore, a Lowe Enterprises representative, when asked about the annexation request. “The lifestyle, amenities and sense of community in Castle Rock are three of the reasons we believe Castle Rock is so special.”

Clore also said that Canyons South offers “a number of benefits to Castle Rock residents, including significant area transportation improvements and hundreds of acres of additional open space and parks to the town’s inventory.”

The amendment was approved this month at town council and commissioners’ meetings.

Public referral and comments on the amendment included Tri-County Health noting that the community design and features would encourage walking and bicycling. Two emails received by Douglas County stressed the need for public notification of future meetings, sharing details on any development plans, concerns over reduction of open space, and concern over the change in proposed densities.

No one at either the council or commissioners’ meetings objected to the amendment.

The Canyons South development has four more steps before an annexation can be completed. The first is required open houses with the developer, which were scheduled Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday the week of March 28. A substantial compliance hearing is also scheduled to be heard before the end of March.

“There’s a lot of work and discussion that goes on before public hearings,” Detweiler said, such as discussion of vision plans, code requirements and policy and plans for infrastructure.

After those hearings, the Castle Rock Planning and Zoning Commission will consider the request for annexation and zoning in May. If everything moves forward, Castle Rock Town Council will hold a public hearing in June. The public hearing is required to be advertised, will allow for public comment and will be heard in two separate and consecutive readings.

Residents can voice concerns about the proposed annexation at any of the scheduled public hearings, on the town’s website or by writing letters to town staff, the planning commission and town council.

“The town hasn’t done many annexations of this size,” Detweiler said. “I think we have a lot of interested residents in what’s going on. Anytime there’s growth or expansion, people — rightfully so — want to find out what it means for me and my neighborhood. And that’s why we have the public process that we do.”

Prudent fallbacks prevent freak-outs No worries, no pressure, no problem.

Much easier said than done, right? I mean who doesn’t worry, who feels no pressure, and who among us doesn’t have any problems?

There are a few old sayings and quotes that I rely on when I am feeling worried, stressed, or pressured and that usually bring me back to center, “Wait to worry,” “Don’t sweat the small stuff, because it’s all small stuff,” and “Panic is your worst enemy.”

There are many more, but those are my “go to” self-help lines.

I am often asked about what it’s like to be a coach or motivational speaker and if I ever have those same down days or stressful and pressure packed moments or seasons of life.

Some people wonder if I ever really get upset or angry, assuming I just go through life with an easy and even temperament all the time.

You know, smooth sailing and never having my boat rocked.

Well I can share with you that just like every one of you reading this column, I too have my moments of anger, frustration, worry, stress, doubt and fear. And never mind about smooth sailing and never rocking the boat, sometimes it all happens at once like a tidal wave crushing down upon me. Have you been there yourself? Maybe not everything at once, but I am confident that we have all shared some of the very same feelings and emotions.

So the natural progression of the con-

versation turns into a question as someone might ask me how I personally deal with those feelings, emotions and situations.

I will share with you what I have shared with them.

Wait to worry.

Statistics say that 98 percent of things that Michael Norton we worry about are not worth worrying about WINNING at all. They have either WORDS already happened and now we just have to work through and past the fallout; what we worry about actually turns out to be an opportunity instead of a threat or problem; worrying will never change the outcome, it will actually limit our ability to see and think clearly enough to address the situation; or the things we are worrying about will actually never happen.

So wait to worry.

Don’t sweat the small stuff, and it’s all small stuff. Have you ever noticed how one simple little problem can escalate to a massive issue in our own mind? We sometimes have a tendency to get so focused on the little situations, tasks, and events that we lose sight of all of the beauty and wonderful things surrounding us. We get caught up on

the little faults of our friends, family, and coworkers that we forget all about the incredible gifts and talents they have to offer. When we sweat the small stuff we will find even more small stuff to sweat. When we look for the good, we will find the good things in life to celebrate.

Panic is your worst enemy. How many times have we jumped to conclusions and fell victim to our fears and doubts? We get so entrenched in the fear that we cannot possibly feel hopeful or see a positive outcome or resolution. Panic also clouds our judgment and ability to respond properly. When we panic we tend to overreact to the situation at hand. When calm replaces panic it gives birth to hope. And when we have hope and live with hope our actions and attitudes reflect that hope and we can find our way out of the worry, pressure and problems that we face.

How about you? Can you wait to worry, stop sweating the small stuff, and replace panic with calm? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com and when we can minimize the worry, pressure, and problems in our lives, it really will be a better than good week.

Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

We lived on Beach Street in Mount Morris, Michigan, which is about as far from the beach as it gets.

My mother said, “Son, this is a cookie.”

A few years later, we drove to a rural home near Uniontown, Pennsylvania.

I was 5.

The homeowner opened her screen door, and out came a bunch of little, red, wiggling animals.

“Son, those are dachshunds. Choose one.”

I chose one named Hexe. It means “Little Witch.”

Years later, there was Badger, and now there is Smitty.

Smitty and I are inseparable. This, of course, somewhat flattens out my social life, which would be disconcerting if I were younger and actually sought the company of others with any real enthusiasm.

My list is flawed and wilts under scrutiny, if a larger Gandhi-picture of existence is taken.

Let me start with Guy Fieri, an absolute toad. He’s 48 and talks and looks like he’s 15.

DADDY ON THE RUN Tales from Front Range Trails

Since launching this column more than a month ago, I’ve logged somewhere around 60 miles, including a few really satisfying eight- and 10-mile training runs along Front Range foothills and mountains. One of those excursions even included a sixmile trek Feb. 23 in Jeffco Open Space’s Apex Park, where I was able to find a good 6 inches or more of untouched powder.

Talk about a chal-

lenge.

But making first tracks through deep

snow was, surprisingly, not the most difficult run I’ve had in that span. Rather, the hardest wound up being the Colorado Masters Running Association’s Forty Furlongs, a relatively flat and short race (five miles) on a warm and sunny February day at Sensory Park, just two days after that introductory column and at a time when I was brimming with confidence and enthusiasm.

Forty Furlongs quickly knocked me down a peg.

Not only was it my worst Masters’ race finish to date, but upon crossing the finish line, I got sick. Lost my lunch. Tossed my cookies.

I know. Gross, right? Too much information. And though it’s not an uncommon part of running, especially early in the season, I was a little embarrassed. At the very least, humbled, as other runners swaggered about not hunched over, hands on knees Johnson continues on Page 11

Donor match a ‘minor miracle’ Chris, left, and Chrissie Smith in their Highlands Ranch home near Quebec and South University. “I’m so proud of her,” Chris said of his wife, who is donating her kidney to a 16-yearold in April. “This is really such a great thing.” Photo by Alex DeWind

Kidney donor, recipient are both area residents

By Alex DeWind adewind@colorado communitymedia.com Chrissie Smith was 18 when she lost her mother to breast cancer that metastasized into bone cancer. Nothing could be done to save her life.

Smith decided then, that if given the chance, she would do what couldn’t be done for her mother. So when she saw a bumper sticker that said 16-year-old Jillian LaPlante needed a kidney transplant, she took it as a sign.

“I got on Facebook the following day and saw a post with the same 16-year-old girl,” the Highlands Ranch resident said.

“I thought, ‘That’s it — this is me.’”

Smith, 33, will donate her kidney to the Mountain Vista High School sophomore April 19.

LaPlante was diagnosed with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis — a rare autoimmune

disorder that involves rapid loss of kidney function — when she was 5 years old. Both of her kidneys failed.

“The doctors never found a trigger,” LaPlante said. “Basically, my body was attacking itself.”

There are only seven reported cases of the disorder per million people a year, according to Medscape, part of the WebMD Health Professional Network.

When LaPlante was 7, she received her first kidney from a

or shaking, but instead enjoying some of that famous after-race camaraderie while discussing the run, their paces, form and times.

They were good sports with me, though, and some of my fellow runners even — very kindly — suggested it was a sign of determination, of a runner leaving it all on the table.

Still, I saw it for what it was: Despite a decent winter with some good miles logged, there was a long way to go to get to “race shape.”

Race shape isn’t an easy place to reach — it takes time, lots of it. And let’s face it, despite the crooning of the Rolling Stones, time is not always on our side.

After the Furlongs race, as I sipped on a 7-Up to calm my tummy, a trio of who I would consider pretty successful and talented runners talked about routine, or a lack thereof.

The culprit in every case? Family.

Turns out it’s hard to log the miles we want, the miles we need, to be better runners. “It’s hard to find time when you have kids and a family and a job,” one running dad lamented.

I feel ya, brother.

But her body rejected it last year. LaPlante now hooks up to a dialysis machine for nine hours a night to clean her blood because her kidneys can no longer do so.

Her family started searching for another donor last fall. They created an awareness campaign with bumper stickers and a Facebook page.

The chances of finding another match were less than

As with many sports, time spent training is indicative of how strong a runner you are. You can do all the reading and studying up you want, you can buy nice shoes and slick clothes and you can plaster stickers on your car. But if you’re not logging miles, your body will betray you at the finish line, if not much sooner.

In case it doesn’t come across, the title of this column, “A Daddy on the Run,” is meant to be a play on words, if not a terribly clever one. The idea was to incorporate two aspects —runner and family man — with the colloquialism “on the run” for a busy life. Because what my fellow runners were talking about after that race last month, that’s the norm. We’re all “on the run” these days, and that makes it easy for important values like health and exercise to slip through the cracks. In this crazy, fast-paced world, it’s difficult to find time as an individual or with the family to pursue your own personal fitness goals or other personal growth aspirations.

Perhaps you’ve read online the popular “philosophy lesson” about the jar full of golf balls. The teacher keeps asking students if the jar is full, and each time the teacher is able to fit more into the jar — first pebbles, which trickle down, then sand, which fills in more space, then a beer, until the jar is really, truly full.

Basically, the moral of the story is to take care of the big things first and let the little

I gulped, and took the call.

“That’s all you are going to do? Complain about things? Gee, buddy, I don’t know. The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.”

He was right.

My secretary said, “It’s Gilbran, on 3.”

I gulped and took the call.

“The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious to the rose. Make them laugh, Craig.”

He was right too.

Who wants to hear my complaints?

I should be counting my blessings.

But Stephen Wright said, “You can’t have everything. Where would you put it?”

I don’t know what this means, exactly, but it is my new standard of perception.

2 percent because her immune system had been exposed to many different antigens, said LaPlante’s father, Pete. Luckily, Smith, who lives less than five miles from LaPlante, has the same blood type and adequate kidney function.

“To find someone this close and who is such a good match is a minor miracle,” Pete LaPlante said. “We hope and pray Jill will get 20 years out of it.”

Smith hopes the same, though she’s disappointed her kidney won’t work for the rest of LaPlante’s life. Kidney transplants from a living donor can last up to 26 years, approximately twice as long as a kidney from a deceased donor, according to the National Kidney Registry.

“I’m happy it will be used for the vital parts of her life,” Smith said, “like graduating from high school, going to college, getting married, having children.”

On April 19, LaPlante will go to Children’s Hospital Colorado in Aurora and Smith will be nearby at the University of Colorado Hospital. The transplant proce-

things fill the rest of the time.

Training as a runner, I’ve learned a few of those tricks. It really comes down to three things: Be flexible. Be ready. Be realistic.

In terms of running, that means being open to whatever experience readily lends itself to you, being prepared when that experience opens up and being cognizant of your limitations, be they physical limits or a time crunch. For example, run where and when it’s convenient, keep gear in your car, or schedule a run in between meetings.

I can fill pages expanding on this and I will, some other day. But for now, remember, there’s time for you to do the things

dure will be done by the end of the day.

Smith is nervous about the surgery, but more excited at the opportunity to help LaPlante.

“When people ask why I’m doing this,” she said, “I say, `Why not?’”

Recovery time for Smith will be minimal. She will stay in the hospital for two to seven days and remain on bed rest for seven to 10 days. Her husband, a structural engineer for the United Launch Alliance, will take care of their four sons ages 3, 8, 10 and 12.

“I couldn’t do this without the support from my husband,” Smith said.

LaPlante, who now spends most of her time resting and mastering the guitar, hopes to play basketball again after spending a few months recuperating from the surgery.

Her advice to those going through similar challenges: “Don’t give up, even when the odds are stacked against you.

Miracles happen and anything is possible.”

you want, you’ve just got to know where to find it.

Recognizing the signs

The growth of American Sign Language allows greater communication with deaf residents

BY THE NUMBERS 70 million

— Deaf people worldwide who use sign language as their first language

F

or many deaf men and women, communication barriers make living in a suburb hard. Lack of public transit and non-communication jobs push those in the deaf community away from the suburbs and into more urban areas. But that is changing in Douglas County, thanks to the robust American Sign Language program in Douglas County high schools.

“ASL is the true language of the deaf,” said Nadelle Payne, who lost her hearing at age 2 after a case of spinal meningitis. (Interviews with Payne were conducted through an interpreter and email.)

“It was a blow to my family,” she said. “But they took control of the situation by learning sign language and putting me in a good school with sign language support.”

Grace notes in times of sorrow and loss As a journalist, you’re never supposed to make the story about you. You’re just the eyes and ears for the community.

That’s not always an easy task, especially when you have to report an event that hits close to home.

I lost a close friend to a car accident in high school, so covering the loss of Lakewood High School basketball player MacKenzie Forrest to an accident revived painful memories.

And just as I did in high school, I retreated to music for safety and comfort.

I’m not alone in turning to music for solace in times of loss.

Therapists are embracing the healing powers of music to help people process their emotions, especially those who have difficulty articulating feelings.

In a March 2014 Los Angeles Times article, writer Sandy Banks profiled music therapist Arvis Jones. Jones visits crime scenes, hospitals, funerals and schools with instruments to help children process their grief.

“With grief, the pain is sometimes so deep it hurts too much for kids to talk about what they feel,” Jones said in the article. “Music breaks down their defenses.

They think they’re having fun.”

For teens, rap lyrics can “…reveal

emotions that are hard to claim,” Jones said. “A silent preschooler can signal distress with the vigorous shake of a tambourine.

A withdrawn child can learn to trust by becoming part of a handbell troupe.

A hurting child Clarke Reader can learn to selfLINER soothe by humming Grandma’s favorite NOTES tune.”

Reddit, the Internet’s largest discussion site, has an onging conversation about songs that have most helped deal with grief and loss. Selections run the gamut from Simon and Garfunkel’s classic “Bridge Over Troubled Water” and Fleetwood Mac’s “Songbird” to “What Sarah Said” by Death Cab for Cutie and “Lonely Day” by System of a Down.

There are no right or wrong song selections to get you through a rough time — the choice is always personal.

And because grief is such a powerful and intimate emotion, the songs we select will

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK Selection: Night Move’s “Pennied Days” released on Domino records.

Review: Night Moves blends ‘70s rock with modern indie aesthetics, and the results are some of the most luminous rock music you can find. The guitar lines waterfall over John Pelant’s haunting vocals, creating a musicscape well worth wandering through.

Favorite song: “Border on Border” Extended jam Neil Young would be most pleased about: “Hiding in the Melody”

be the ones that touch us the deepest.

Many of my comfort songs come from folk artists like James Taylor, Jackson Browne and Patty Griffin. I like the intimacy of music created by instruments and performed by a few people.

That’s why one of my very favorite songs in times of loss is Eric Clapton’s “Tears In Heaven,” which he wrote after the death of his 4-year-old son. The acoustic guitar-driven song swells with

beauty and heartbreak. You know the lyrics are coming from someone who has suffered a traumatic loss.

In part because grief can be difficult to vocalize, it makes sense that music is so powerful. Even if you strip away the lyrics, feelings that transcend words and description can still be expressed — often better — with instruments. Classical or New Age music, for instance, generates a salve that wraps you up.

Jazz is my go-to instrumental genre. I find something extremely comforting in Louis Armstrong’s “Wrap Your Troubles In Dreams.” And anything off of John Coltrane’s “Blue Trane” album feels warm and comforting.

There’s no way to avoid grief in life.

But there’s solace in knowing we can all find comfort in a few notes and lyrics from someone we’ll probably never meet.

Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week. A community editor with Colorado Community Media, he sends good thoughts to all who are suffering loss.

Signs

Ella Neal, 16, has been taking American Sign Language at Castle View High School for the past four years.

She said she keeps going back to it because of the beauty of the language.

Photo by Shanna Fortier

Continued from Page 10

American Sign Language was officially recognized as a language in 1960, but wasn’t accepted as a foreign language option nationally in schools until 2006.

When Castle View High School opened in 2006, so did the ASL program, with a part-time teacher. The next year, Payne took over as a full-time ASL teacher. By the program’s fourth year, there were four ASL teachers.

ThunderRidge, Mountain Vista and Highlands Ranch high schools and eDCSD — the district’s online school — also have ASL programs with a mix of hearing and deaf teachers.

Course guides at Littleton, Arapahoe and Heritage high schools don’t show that sign language is offered as a world language.

Payne, a Castle Rock resident for 15 years, has seen the impact of the school’s ASL program in the community.

“In Littleton, I feel isolated there because people don’t sign,” she said. “But here in Castle Rock, we have such a big program, that almost every restaurant and store has someone that took an ASL class at some point in their high school career.”

The ASL program has created a community of people more open minded to those who are different than themselves, Payne said. “It is so nice to go in restaurants and stores and there is always someone who can communicate with me.”

For students in the program, it’s not only about learning a language, it’s also about communicating with people they know.

Castle View senior Michelle Owens was able to use what she learned in school to sign the maid-of-honor speech at her aunt’s wedding.

Cameron Laing, 17, is learning the language to improve communication with his aunt and uncle, who are deaf and live in Florida. He practices by Skyping with them.

“Sign language is absolutely beautiful,” said Castle View student Ella Neal, 16. “It’s expressive and beautiful and it’s something close to my heart.”

DEFEATING DISCRIMINATION OPENS DOORS TO TEACHING While pursuing her teaching degree at Southern Louisiana University, Nadelle Payne was banned from the teaching program in her last semester because she was deaf.

“It made me feel defeated,” Payne said.

“I could not be a teacher after my hard work to become one. I also knew of my rights — and while it’s not my personality to fight back — I knew that I could not let the university get their way. I also knew that this was my opportunity to be a

policy changer for universities with deaf students. I really felt angry and defeated, but I did not let it get in the way of my dream.”

Payne sued the school in what ended up becoming the first jury trial in Americans with Disabilities Act history.

On Oct. 23, 1996, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in New Orleans affirmed a jury verdict that the Louisiana Board of Trustees for Colleges and Universities and administrators at

Southeastern Louisiana University discriminated against Payne — whose name at the time was Grantham — when they expelled her from the lower-elementary degree program because she was deaf.

“The significance of the lawsuit was that many people couldn’t be teachers because of their deafness,” Payne said. “The lawsuit changed all that and we have many deaf teachers now because of this victory. That makes me really proud.”

Play about warriors is first part of trilogy Look at family stretches across decades, conflicts

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com “I’m a Marine. Who are you?” a cocky young Elliot confronts the audience as he emerges from the shower and dresses in his khaki uniform. On the stage surrounding him, silhouetted family members speak from behind translucent panels, which give the performance a warm glow as more conversation — largely monologues — and limited action lead the audience through individual stories.

In September it will present the Pulitzer Prize-winning “Water by the Spoonful,” which continues Elliot’s life and deals with addiction.

Colorado artist shows work in Englewood Museum Outdoor Arts hosts Sprick exhibition

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com “Most of my work is done in the studio, but the body of work here was done entirely outdoors. I took a portable easel and art supplies out each day and searched for a nearby view that I thought might become the basis of a composition. Then I would try, through direct observation, to interpret and paint, with some verisimilitude, a little slice of the ordinary but glimmering, scintillating, rich visual world as it lay in front of me.” This is from Daniel Sprick’s statement about his new exhibit in Englewood.

At the March 19 opening of “Daniel Sprick: Painting Out-of-Doors,” the Museum Outdoor Arts Gallery at the Englewood Civic Center was packed with admirers who have followed Colorado’s well-recognized painter over the years.

The gallery’s theme for this year is “Reinvention.” Curator and executive director Cynthia Madden Leitner said, “The atypical subject matter represented in this exhibition is a perfect example of how great artists are constantly reinventing their art, along with themselves, in this process of continual self-discovery.”

In MOA’s early days, there would be meticulously painted still lifes by Sprick that sometimes bordered on surreal. One wondered what was really going on there.

At a more recent Denver Art Museum solo exhibit, he exhibited portraits of people he’d met who had unusual qualities and physical appearance.

Sprick’s new show, two years in the making, is all painted out-ofdoors. He taught in Italy and painted there, then returned to the United States and painted in his Denver hometown, as well as at Big Sur and elsewhere in Colorado.

Denver scenes range from the view from his apartment to small park and neighborhood subjects and more expansive cityscapes. In Italy, there are monuments like the Coliseum, fountains, warm-looking narrow stone streets, the Forum and more. The “Davenport Cliffs” at Big Sur lets you hear the waves crashing.

He can focus on a site and make it his for the day.

The quality of light on a given day will vary from that on a different day — or different time of day.

“Sometimes the resulting piece is an attempt to remember, hours later, how the light had appeared when the painting was started. Other times, the painting becomes a composite of various changes throughout the time spent on location, but not how it looked at a particular time,” he wrote.

Horses help veterans chart their courses Ranch in Elizabeth uses animals as a form of therapy

By Geraldine Smith Special to Colorado Community Media Suzy MacKenzie became involved in the care and ownership of horses as a young girl, fashioning a lifelong passion.

“As a child, I always wanted to be a horse,” said MacKenzie, founder and executive director of the Eagle’s Nest Ranch in Elizabeth.

As a missionary in South America, she discovered an equally compelling desire to help people. Eagle’s Nest is the marriage of her love of people and horses, coupled with an enduring concern for their welfare.

The name of the ranch was the natural choice when she was inspired by an eagle’s nest atop a pole as she was searching for the perfect name for her project. MacKenzie knew she wanted to offer her services to military families, and not only was the eagle the symbol of the U.S. military, but a nest represents a haven for nurturing and a place from which to soar when the time was right. The phrase “Soaring Above Adversity” is the ultimate goal for her clients, and that sentiment is peppered throughout the literature advertising the ranch.

Above all, MacKenzie says the message of Eagle’s Nest is, “There is always hope.”

Eagle’s Nest’s mission is to connect people in need of support with horses and to inspire those facing adversity, whether it be divorce, PTSD, or any other emotional trauma. According to MacKenzie, spending time with the horses helps the healing begin.

Horses are her therapeutic animals of choice because, she says, “They do not have an agenda but are in the moment and respond to each person according to the chemistry of the encounter, judging if they feel safe and can trust the individual. If a person is too aggressive or acting in an odd manner the horse will retreat.”

Military families are an integral part of her plans for the ranch.

Prior to establishing the ranch, she worked for a nonprofit organization in charge of military programs,

Sandhill cranes, with a 7-foot wingspan, fly out of the San Luis Valley fields near Monte Vista to roost for the night in wetlands with a foot of water, where they are safer from predators. They trill a call to each other as they fill the sky, forming a huge black cloud at times. Courtesy photo

Sandhill cranes thrill birders in Colorado Majestic creatures strike awe in hearts of gathered visitors

Drive a few miles south of Monte Vista on State Highway 15 and look for a pullout on the west side.

Stop, look and listen here and/or at a second pullout nearby on the east side of the road.

From about 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in March or September, especially at each end of this period, you will see and hear large gray sandhill cranes “loafing” amidst the stubble, eating bits of roots, grain, plants, insects, small vertebrates and more — and communicating. If they are not at the first spot, drive slowly through the Monte Vista Wildlife Refuge or around the corner to the left past the first pullout mentioned, where they are often seen in a field behind a grove of large old trees.

Wildlife biologists say they are very social creatures and stay in touch with a trilling call, which is especially pronounced when large numbers decide it’s time to fly at the same moment. They can blacken the sky and block off the view of the mountains for a short time. This in particular is what the hundreds of visiting, lenstoting birders have come for. They watch in appreciative awe.

Watchers will also get to observe some individuals or pairs jumping and flapping their wings — seeming to dance. Cranes mate for life and reinforce their bonding with this behavior. Most pairs raise only one chick and keep it with them through fall and winter before it launches on its own. They don’t breed until they reach 2 to 5 years old and travel with the flock.

These sandhill cranes are following a path their ancestors have followed for thousands of years — most winter in New Mexico at Bosque de Apache, and fly north across Colorado to nesting grounds in the Greater Yellowstone region.

From late February to mid-April, the feathered travelers stop in waves to rest and refuel in the San Luis Valley, surrounded by the beautiful Sangre De Cristo and San Juan Mountain ranges.

Monte Vista hosts a Crane Festival the second weekend in March, with guided tours, a craft fair and lectures which will appeal to many, but reservations must be made in advance and tours sell out. Weeks on either side of this will yield satisfactory, rewarding sightings.

Information is found online by typing in Monte Vista Crane Festival. A U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service brochure is also available to print, with a map.

During a mid-day lull in crane watching, our family headed north on Highway 285 to visit the beautiful Penitente Canyon near Garita, a popular spot for rock climbers, but also pleasant for a hike or sedentary bird watching.

Mountain bluebirds were about on March 22.

Also at the north edge of town on 285 is the Mennonite-operated Sunflour Bakery where nice breakfasts and lunches and really wonderful pies are available until 3 p.m., if/when the munchies strike. (Cash only.)

Large flocks of these cranes are also seen migrating through Nebraska, pausing near the South Platte River, where there is an Audubon Sanctuary.

That area becomes more congested with birders than the Colorado site.

One needs to reserve space early.

We believe the existing garage was built between 1929 and 1936. The garage is not entirely in its original form. It has been painted, has a new roof and the original accordion push style door was replaced with a single electric door. See Photos below.

‘Gods and Goddesses’ is theme of performance

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com “Gods and Goddesses, Mythical and Magical” is the intriguing title for the 90-member Denver Concert Band’s final formal performance of this season at Lone Tree Arts Center, set for 2:30 p.m. April 10. Jacinda Bouton of Lone Tree is conductor of this longstanding band.

It will feature the 2016 winner of the band’s annual Young Artist Contest, oboist Kyle Howe, a senior at Castle View High School in Castle Rock.

Howe will perform “Variations on a Theme by Glinka” and the program also includes music evoking the gods and goddesses of ancient Greece and Rome. The playlist: “The Planets” by Gustav Holst IF YOU GO “Aurora Awakens” by John Mackey The Denver Concert “Vesuvius” by Frank Ticheli Band will perform “Olympiada” by Samuel Hazo “Gods and God“Goddess of Fire” by Stephen desses: Mythical Reineke and Magical” at “Transit of Venus” by John 2:30 p.m. April 10 Philip Sousa at the Lone Tree “Rise of the Firebird” by SteArts Center, 10075 ven Reineke Commons St., Lone “Song of Jupiter” by Handel Tree.

I originally had my heart set on playing the flute, but to my dismay I picked it up and couldn’t make a single sound. Discouraged, I went in search of another similar-looking instrument.

My teacher, Cheryl Poules, an oboist herself (and a member of the Denver Concert Band) urged me to try playing the oboe. I tried it and was able to create a sound … and never looked back,” although it is admittedly a difficult instrument.

He said he’d looked hard for pieces that included oboe and wind band and found only a few, including the “Variations on a Theme by Glinka,” which he enjoyed for its many styles of music — “making it a very entertaining piece to hear and play.”

He said he would encourage elementary school students to join a band. “Band is cool … Well, maybe not to everyone. But joining band instantly places you in a community of friends that will stay with you wherever you go. You never have to worry about being alone or unaccepted, because the friendships made in band last for longer than other friendships and you have an instant connection with anyone else who plays in a band.”

Taking it to the limit New pitch-count rules mean keeping track of more than balls and strikes

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com

WHAT’S THE PROBLEM?

C

oaches and managers at all levels of baseball — from Little League to the major leagues — have become concerned about the overuse of pitchers’ arms. The number of pitches thrown, or the pitch count, is monitored closely in the hope of preventing injuries.

The Colorado High School Activities Association put a pitch-count rule into effect this season that mandates periods of rest for a player depending on the number of pitches thrown in a game.

CHSAA abandoned its previous rule that limited pitchers to no more than 12 innings on three consecutive days but had no pitch maximum.

“The trainer I always go to keeps telling us we need to keep our arms healthy,” said Cherry Creek senior right-hander Carter Van Gytenbeek. “At the age we are at and how we are developing, and we’re still growing, I feel like the pitch limit is kind of acceptable to a point.”

CHSAA has set the limit at 110 pitches in varsity games and 85 for junior varsity play, and it requires three days of rest for pitchers who hit those thresholds.

Adhering to the pitch limit isn’t always easy.

In an early season game, Arapahoe senior right-hander Desmond Pineda allowed just one run and struck out eight batters, helping the Warriors to a 2-1 lead over Regis Jesuit.

He had thrown 100 pitches, close to the limit, and didn’t pitch in the seventh inning. Arapahoe lost 7-3.

“The pitch limit is something you have to get used to,” Pineda said. “It was hard for me to sit in the dugout when I knew I could have gone another inning or two. I could have (gone) out there another inning and got the win.”

Van Gytenbeek understood Pineda’s frustration.

“That was a tough situation to be in, but it’s also smart because you don’t want to throw out a kid’s arm this early in the season,” he said.

Coaches weigh in Many coaches agree with the intent of the new rule.

“Safety of the arms — that’s what it’s all about,” Mountain Vista coach Ron Quintana said.

“I’m fine with that pitch limitation,” Cherry Creek coach Marc Johnson said.

Littleton coach Bob Bote said there shouldn’t be a concern about overworked high school pitchers because coaches should already be monitoring the situation.

“I really baby my pitchers at this age when they are still growing and developing,” he said.

The count, however, remains an issue since many pitchers also play for club teams, increasing the workload on their arms.

“All of baseball is trying to figure out

Elbow injuries among pitchers are common throughout the various ranks of baseball.

The following is from a 2014 position paper by the American Sports Medicine Institute: “During the past few years there has been an ‘epidemic’ rise in the number of professional pitchers requiring ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction (‘Tommy John surgery’). This is like deja vu, as a similar sharp rise was seen in adolescent pitchers near the turn of the century. These two rises are indeed connected; that is, today’s pro pitcher in his 20s was an adolescent pitcher a dozen years ago. Thus in many cases, the injury leading to Tommy John surgery in today’s young pro pitchers actually began while they were adolescent amateurs. Observations by orthopaedic surgeons support this link, as the torn ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in a pro pitcher usually looks like it has worn out over time.

Arapahoe pitcher Desmond Pineda allowed one run in six innings, striking out eight, against Regis Jesuit early this season but was taken out because he was nearing the pitch limit. The Warriors lost 7-3 as Regis scored six runs in the seventh against relief pitching. Photo by Jim Benton

the solution and I don’t really know if anybody knows the answer,” said Jerry Scavarda, an area professional scout for the Miami Marlins. “With all the club teams, kids are playing year round now. They are definitely playing more games.”

There are limits to what a high school coach can do to prevent overextended pitchers, Horizon coach Ralph Garcia said.

“What happens now is kids switch from high school to clubs during the summer,” he said. “So many kids are going deeper into the year and maybe their arms are getting worn out.

“We don’t know how much a pitcher is throwing for club. Besides what they do at

THE RULES A look at the number of days of rest a pitcher is required to take after throwing a specified number of pitches under new rules implemented this season by the Colorado High School Activities Association: Varsity

Junior varsity

86-110 pitches: three days

61-85 pitches: three days

36-60 pitches: two days

26-35 pitches: one day

school, they go to these private instructors and we don’t know how many pitches they are throwing there. There are a lot of factors there, and more than the CHSAA put in place.”

Working arm in arm The new pitch limits may push teams to develop more depth on the mound in case weather postponements force multiple games in a week. The state playoffs often have teams playing three games in two days.

“Guys that don’t develop depth in their pitching staff, it hurts them,” Johnson said. “So if they are relying on one or two guys — and a lot of high schools like to do that — it’s going to hurt them a little bit.”

Quintana said the rule will encourage teams to develop a third starter they can count on in the postseason.

“In the long run, what the pitch count does for us is gets guys playing experience and big-game experience,” he said, “so if you make the playoffs, you know you have some guys to pitch.”

Run totals will rise as teams struggle to develop that depth, Garcia predicts.

“You are going to see scores go in the (teens) and 20s because you are going to have JV pitchers pitching varsity games.”

“Research has shown that the amount of competitive pitching and pitching while fatigued are strongly linked to injury. Other risk factors may include pitching on multiple teams, pitching yearround, playing catcher when not pitching, poor pitching mechanics and poor physical conditioning.”

Looking back at last year Rock Canyon used three pitchers last season to move through the Class 5A playoffs and win the state championship.

If this year’s pitch-limitation rules would have been in place during last season’s playoffs, the Jaguars still would have won the title.

In a 3-2 loss to Mountain Vista on May 16, Josh White threw 77 pitches. On May 17, Chris Given’s pitch count was 92 in a 7-6 win over Pine Creek and on that same day Bryce Dietz threw 79 pitches in a 5-1 win over Cherry Creek.

Then on May 26 in a continuation of the double-elimination tournament, Dietz threw 93 pitches and Given 25 in a 7-6 triumph over Chatfield. Given came back May 27 with 94 pitches in a 2-1 victory that eliminated Mountain Vista. In the second game on May 27, White hurled a 97-pitch, 9-2 seven-inning conquest of Chatfield in the championship game.

Baseball teams take road trips

Gillis has hot streak on ice Vista senior honored as hockey player of year

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Tanner Gillis is a Mountain Vista first baseman and admits that baseball is his sport.

However, he’s pretty good doubling as a hockey player, and has been named the Colorado Community Media South Metro Hockey Player of the Year.

Gillis had 28 goals and three assists this season and helped the Golden Eagles make their first-ever appearance in the Final Four.

“Tanner was our captain, our leader and the player everyone looked up to on our team,” said Vista

coach Kevin Insana, who took over the Golden Eagles’ coaching job before the start of the season. “He was a dominant force on the ice and was unstoppable at times. Whenever the team needed a big goal, Tanner was there to provide it.

“He played in every situation and whenever he was on the ice, I knew the team was in good hands. His goal against Cherry Creek early in our quarterfinal game was huge for our team and put us at ease and helped the team play free and without nerves. These were the types of goals and moments he provided for us all season.”

Gillis, a 6-foot, 180-pound senior, was pleased with the season.

“I definitely think it went well.

One of my big goals was to be Peak League All-Conference, which I was,

and I was very pleased about that,” said Gillis. “This season went very well.

“I improved especially with our new coach coming in. He knows a lot about hockey, which definitely helped me. I improved most on my footwork, quickness and speed. This season went very well.”

Mountain Vista had compiled a 53-8-1 over the previous three seasons but could never make it into the semifinals of the state playoffs.

“We were proud,” said Gillis, noting that the Golden Eagles finished 14-6-0 this season and beat Cherry Creek to advance to the Frozen Four before losing in the semifinals to eventual state champion Regis Jesuit. “Every guy on the team worked very hard to finally get past that quarterfinal game.”

Spring break used to be just that, a break.

It was a couple days off from homework assignments, a time to watch a movie, not think about any class projects that might be pending and get a few days off from baseball practice.

These days, student athletes still get a brief academic break, but many baseball teams get tested by playing in tournaments Jim Benton in Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, OVERTIME Florida, California and New York.

At one of the numerous spring break baseball tournaments, there were 31 Colorado teams competing in the various divisions of the Coach Bob Invitational in the Phoenix area, and 12 teams of those teams were from the Denver metro area.

Colorado teams went 40-49-1 against out-of-state opponents March 23-26.

New football coach at Arvada Luke Orvis, an assistant coach at Edmond Memorial in Oklahoma, has been named the new head football coach at Arvada High School.

Q&A with Lone Tree gymnast Jacqueline Kranitz Girl is first winner of national Miss Arnold Teen Fitness competition held in Ohio

Jacqueline “Jax” Kranitz, 15, left, of Lone Tree, stands next to Arnold Schwarzenegger as the first ever winner of the Miss Arnold Teen Fitness competition. Courtesy photos

By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com Jacqueline “Jax” Kranitz, 15, of Lone Tree became the winner of the first Miss Arnold Teen Fitness competition in Columbus, Ohio, earlier this month.

Contestants from around the country submitted a video and a detailed application in order to be chosen to compete.

Scores were based on a two-minute fitness routine, fitness wear and a gown competition.

The judging panel featured Olympic champion speed skater Apollo Ono, three former Mr. Olympia fitness champions, two talent scouts and the editor of Pageantry magazine. Kranitz is also a longtime gymnast and has already committed to a full gymnastics scholarship to the University of Iowa in 2018.

The Miss Arnold Teen Fitness Pageant is part of the yearly Arnold Sports Festival in Columbus, Ohio, and is designed to promote fit and healthy lifestyles in youths. The winner is expected to become an advocate for raising awareness of health and fitness in schools and communities nationwide.

Kranitz took some time recently to answer questions from Colorado How did it feel to be the first winner of the Miss Arnold Teen Competition?

It was very special being the first one to ever win. But it feels even more special to be the first one to have that experience. Not just winning, but doing the whole thing in general. It was a really fun thing to be a part of and taught me a lot of things. I’m really glad I did it.

What will you remember most about the experience?

The girls. Going into the pageant, I didn’t know what to expect from the

other competitors. I know that can be kind of a tough world, but all of the girls there were very nice and supportive. I’m very glad to have met them all.

How did you get into fitness?

When I was in eighth grade I took a season off of gymnastics due to injury and I really needed something physical to do. I did the Warrior Classic fitness competition here in Colorado for fun in the teen fitness category. I also had to miss some time doing gymnastics this year because of injuries and this opportunity presented itself. I remembered how fun the Warrior one was so I went for it.

local

Are you surprised you did so well?

I am surprised. Because I have pretty much only done gymnastics my whole life. I wasn’t sure what to expect doing this at all. It’s kind of just happening so fast that I’m just trying to enjoy it.

What is your training like leading up to a competition?

I don’t actually go on a full diet. My mom is a nutritionist so every single day I’m eating fairly healthy. So the eating aspect doesn’t really change much for me. I keep that the same. For this past competition I would train my routine about five times a week. I trained at local rec centers when they had a dance room open or

something like that. A typical day would be get up, go to school, come home and do some homework and then go train. On other days I would be going to gymnastics practice for about two to four hours. On the days I didn’t have gymnastics, I practiced the routine.

What are your plans for the future?

As of now, I am stilling planning to compete for Iowa as a D-1 gymnast. I’ll have to see about fitness competitions.

I really enjoyed this last one. It depends on where it will take me. In gymnastics I train about 28 hours per week, so it would be a little difficult to fit in another competition but plans always change.

The current holder of the Evidence of Debt secured by the Deed of Trust described herein, has filed written election and demand for sale as provided by law and in said Deed of Trust.

THEREFORE, Notice Is Hereby Given that on the first possible sale date (unless the sale is continued*) at 10:00 a.m. Wednesday, May 18, 2016, at the Public Trustee’s office, 402 Wilcox Street, Castle Rock, Colorado, I will sell at public auction to the highest and best bidder for cash, the said real property and all interest of said Grantor(s), Grantor(s)’ heirs and assigns therein, for the purpose of paying the indebtedness provided in said Evidence of Debt secured by the Deed of Trust, plus attorneys’ fees, the expenses of sale and other items allowed by law, and will deliver to the purchaser a Certificate of Purchase, all as provided by law. If the sale date is continued to a later date, the deadline to file a notice of intent to cure by those parties entitled to cure may also be extended.

If you believe that your lender or servicer has failed to provide a single point of contact (38-38-103.1 CRS) or they are still pursuing foreclosure even though you have submitted a completed loss mitigation application or you have been offered and have accepted a loss mitigation option (38-38103.2 CRS), you may file a complaint with the Colorado Attorney General (720-508-6006) or the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (855-411-2372) or both. However, the filing of a complaint in and of itself will not stop the foreclosure process.

Here’s looking at you, Kid Parker boy’s dog enjoys early success at show

By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com Dog owners know that when it comes to getting their furry friends to obey a command, treats can be a powerful thing.

Ryan Miller, 12, of Parker, has firsthand experience in the magical influence of treats. He’s known to carry chicken breast, raw venison and even Cheerios in his pocket for his star pupil, a 1-year-old miniature schnauzer named Kid. So powerful are these delicacies — along with Miller’s gentle coaxing — that Kid placed second out of 30 entries at the 21st annual Rocky Mountain Cluster Dog Show at the National Western Complex in February.

Aside from treats, however, Kid seems to genuinely enjoy the spotlight. The judges took notice when he presented a noble “stack” — a stance with precise angulation — in the ring, and they admired his stately gait. Plus, the miniature schnauzer avoided breaking one of the cardinal rules: no barking.

Miller and Kid started out by attending confirmation classes for show training in Littleton. The partners would attend multiple times per week.

“First, you have to get them used to being up on the tables,” Miller said.

Most schoolkids wouldn’t have the opportunity to put so much work into what many consider to be a weekend hobby. But Miller is able to attend confirmation classes and four-day shows because he’s a student at Colorado Connections Academy, an online school that affords some flexibility. The sixth-

Miller attended traditional school through fourth grade, but was getting left behind.

“He had, like, 30 kids in his kindergarten and first-grade class, which when you’re first setting that foundation for learning, that’s just too many kids,” said his mom, Machelle.

Later, when he transferred to a school with smaller class sizes, Miller wanted to move forward and conduct research, but was held back because the rest of the class wasn’t moving fast enough.

Now, he has the ability to more forward at his own pace, and has

even put in the time and effort to become a second-degree black belt in taekwondo on the side. He also teaches the martial art to younger kids two nights per week and gains much-needed socialization from the activity.

Taking Kid to dog shows has become just as important and has given Miller a purposeful responsibility. His early success has provided further motivation. His first dog show was in September and the second-place finish is impressive by all standards.

Miller loves miniature schnauzers, but has taken more interest in Havanese Pomeranians and Japanese Chins. His ultimate goal is to enter a dog in the prestigious Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in New York.
