Collaboration Campus named Partnership of Year STAFF REPORT

A collaborative project that brought together education, business and the community to create a resource for education and workforce training was recently recognized by the Economic Development Council of Colorado.

The Castle Rock Collaboration Campus, an effort with the Town of Castle Rock, Arapahoe Community College, Colorado State University and the Douglas County School District that resulted in a $3 million infrastructure reimbursement to build the campus in Castle Rock, earned the Economic Development Partnership of the Year from the Colorado council.

In addition, Castle Rock also won the Large Community of the Year for Economic Development Excellence. This is this fourth time in seven years that Castle Rock has earned the award, according to a news release from the Castle Rock Economic Development office.

Frank Gray, president and CEO of the Castle Rock Economic Development Council, received the Economic Development Achievement Award for his role in bringing new business and innovative ideas to Castle Rock. All three awards were presented Oct. 25 at the state council’s annual conference in Estes Park.

“Our residents and our business community in Castle Rock are excited for this project as great economic development is about building strong infrastructure that includes digital, entrepreneurial, physical and educational infrastructure.

Colorado communities create great job opportunities when they invest in their long-term infrastructure,” Gray said in the news release.

“The award for the Collaboration Campus just highlights how many partnerships had to come together to make this work. Specifically, it provides Castle Rock

a more sustainable ‘workforce pipeline’ to both existing and potential companies. Educational infrastructure is an essential component in our strategic plan to attract and retain primary employers. We are honored to get the recognition as we work to make Castle Rock a world-class standalone community.”

The Collaboration Campus includes programs to create a smooth pathway from high school diploma to associate degree to bachelor’s degree. Arapahoe Community College also plans to build a $40 million campus on a 14-acre site in the Meadows. The two-phase project includes two buildings of 54,000 square feet each, with an estimated phase one opening in fall 2019.

The $3 million infrastructure reimbursements from the Castle Rock Town Council will assist ACC with building permits and fees, and land site improvements.

The campus plans to engage the business community to provide co-working and maker spaces as well as access to a 3D printing lab to create interaction between the community.

ACC will provide the collaborative educational infrastructure by leasing space to partners CSU and the Douglas County School District, offering a world-class education, close to home, and at an affordable price point.

The Castle Rock Collaboration Campus will also provide local business with expertise, resources, and skilled workers through training, hands-on project work, internships, mentorship and clinical activities.

Teen entrepreneur looks to further expand business About me I am the 18-year-old owner of Elevation Creations. I live here in Castle Rock with my parents and two younger siblings. I just recently graduated from Castle View High School in May. In my free time, you can typically catch me spending time outdoors whether it’s hitting the slopes, camping or going for a hike.

Becoming an entrepreneur Elevation Creations specializes in highquality handmade kitchenware, home décor, cribbage boards, corporate gifts and wedding gifts and favors. We also have the ability to do custom wood slab furniture as well. I founded the company in 2013 in my parent’s garage.

I first had the idea to start my own company when I was just 13 years old. I was looking for a way to make money. Not too fond of mowing yards and too young to get a typical job, I thought the “easiest” way to make a little money was to start my own business. My dad had been a carpenter earlier in his life, and when our family moved to Colorado in 2005 he had also moved all of his woodworking tools. I had always helped my dad woodworking as a young child and asked my dad to teach me how to work with wood. He agreed, and after numerous failed attempts over several frustrating weeks, we were finally able to produce a few cutting boards and pens to sell at our church’s fall craft fair.

How the business has evolved Several things have changed since I started Elevation Creations. Starting out, we only offered a few different types of cutting boards and pens. As I learned more techniques and upgraded tools, I was able to expand my lines to include a variety of different products including an entire Colorado line. When I first started selling my products, I would go to craft shows nearly every weekend during the Christmas season and attend other small shows. As I expanded my lines gradually, and learned more about how business worked, I was able to open an online store, present my products to other shops in the area and attend larger shows.

Brenden Coney is an 18-year-old entrepreneur from Castle Rock looking to expand the woodworking business he started from his parents’ garage.

COURTESY PHOTO Expanding into the future Although I have experienced lots of success over the past couple years, starting a business definitely comes with its challenges. Looking back on the past five years, I have come across several challenges and made countless mistakes, both large and small. The most challenging issue I have always faced is finding enough space to run my business in. I first started Elevation Creations using one third of a three-car garage, but I have since taken over our entire garage and the entire basement as well (Sorry, mom and dad). Within the next year, I am optimistic that I will find a larger warehouse to move my operations to and my parents will finally be able to reclaim their garage and basement again.

I have found lots of success attending wholesale trade shows and generating interest with some of the nation’s largest retailers including Home Goods and Xanterra, which operates numerous gift shops in the nation’s largest national parks. Looking into the future, I am hoping to open up a kiosk in the airport to sell my lines and other handcrafted artisan goods in 2019.

My advice One thing I have learned from running my own business is not to dwell on any mistakes.

Mistakes I make are just learning opportunities. Another mantra that I live by is to take advantage of every opportunity. Speaking from experience, you will always regret the opportunities passed up or the things you didn’t do rather than the things you did do.

Craft show takes over Douglas County Event Center

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

he parking lot was packed and the aisles were almost too crammed to move as shoppers flocked to the 26th Annual Castle Rock Craft Show Extraordinaire. From home décor to antiques to specialty foods, there seemed to be something for everyone.

The event took place on Nov. 3 at the Douglas County Events Center. Area seniors hand made some of the items for sale but more than 150 vendors came for

the free event.

Among them, Mary Waters and Randy Blunt, operating a stand selling Blunt’s woodworking creations and pine beetle furniture.

“This is our first year,” Waters said. “We’re having a lot of fun.”

The event also featured a silent auction, homemade food and treats, and door prizes. Proceeds go to the Castle Rock Seniors Activity Center to serve local seniors.

As for next year, there’s already a vendor waitlist, but those wanting to be added can contact the Castle Rock Senior Activity Center.

Aside from plenty of shopping opportunities, patrons at the Castle Rock Senior Activity Center’s craft show could also sample homemade and locallycrafted foods.

The more than 150 vendors at the 2018 sold handmade goods while a silent auction helped generate proceeds for the Castle Rock Senior Activity Center.

Hickenlooper executive order targets youth vaping Teen use in Colorado is highest in nation

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

To address what state and health officials are calling an epidemic, Gov. John Hickenlooper signed an executive order outlining efforts to decrease the use of e-cigarettes and other vaping products among teens.

“What we are trying to do with this executive order is to beef up compliance checks for businesses,” Hickenlooper said at a Nov. 2 press conference at Children’s Hospital Colorado. “It’s also going to require the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment to begin conducting research between vaping and some of the other risky behaviors we see with our kids.”

The order doubles the number of compliance checks on businesses that sell vapor products and bans the use of vaping products in state buildings, Hickenlooper said.

He recommends the General Assembly pass legislation on existing tobacco policy, including raising the minimum sales age for tobacco and e-cigarrette products to 21 years old.

As part of the order, the Department of Public Health and Environment issued a statewide health advisory on vaping and nicotine addiction, and

Gov. John Hickenlooper signs an executive order to curb teen vaping at a press conference Nov. 2 at Children’s Hospital Colorado.

PHOTOS BY ALEX DEWIND Hickenlooper proclaimed the month of November as “No Vape November.”

Colorado leads the nation in the number of youth who use e-cigarettes and other vaping products, according to the most recent Behavioral Risk Survey from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. More than 25 percent of high school students use vapor products and more than 50 percent of high school students have tried vapor products. That’s twice the national average.

“Youth vaping, the percentage of kids vaping, is not a list we want to be at the top of,” Hickenlooper said.

“But we are.”

The use of vaping products has skyrocketed among youth nationwide, health officials say. The most popular product on the market is the Juul.

The discreet device resembles a black disk drive with a pod that contains as much nicotine as a pack of cigarettes, health officials say.

The pods come in flavors attractive to kids, such as cotton candy and mango.

Juul Labs has faced several lawsuits, claiming the company targets youth with its marketing and falsely advertises.

Juul Labs supports Hickenlooper’s call to raise the purchasing age for

e-cigarettes and vaping products to 21, according to Ted Kwong, a Juul Labs spokesman.

“Underage use is directly opposed to our mission of eliminating cigarettes by offering existing adult smokers a true alternative to combustible cigarettes,” Kwong said in an email correspondence. “While we believe flavors play an important role in helping adult smokers switch to vapor technology, we also support reasonable regulation to restrict advertising and naming of inappropriate flavors such as cotton candy and gummy bear that are directed at children.”

When young people consume nicotine in any form, their health and brain development are at risk, said Dr. Tista Ghosh, interim chief medical officer at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.

“Early research indicates kids who vape are more likely to later smoke cigarettes, a lethal habit,” said Ghosh, adding that vaping may be an indicator of other at-risk behaviors, such as binge drinking, marijuana use or use of prescription drugs.

To not address youth vaping, Hickenlooper said, would be “irresponsible.”

“I think it’s safe to say that the long term health of teens continues to be at high risk,” Hickenlooper said. “With teenagers, this is a seed that is getting planting and has the potential to lead to lifelong addictions to not just vaping, but to cigarettes.”

For seniors and men, barriers remain to confronting mental health issues

Stigma leads many men to suffer in silence Social expectations, a reluctance to talk often inhibit men from seeking help

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Marilyn McQueary has lived in Castle Rock for approximately 14 months. She moved in with her son and daughter-in-law after the passing of her husband, leaving behind her Florida home of three decades. She found the adjustment difficult, but was determined not to let herself become depressed. Joining the Castle Rock Senior Center, she said, “was the best thing I have ever done.”

‘Mental health was not talked about’ Isolation, depression key issues as seniors go through life changes

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

oward the front of a crowded conference room at Legacy Village senior community in Castle Pines, 82-year-old Marilyn McQueary sat quietly through a presentation on finding purpose in life after retirement.

Then the speaker asked the gathered seniors a question: What were their needs?

McQueary wanted to share. She knew from personal experience that connection to resources and social interaction can be key to healthy aging.

She has lived in Castle Rock with her son and daughter-inlaw for about 14 months, moving from Florida after the death of her husband. The transition to her new hometown was difficult.

She believed she was on the road to depression had she not pushed

herself to make friends, find new activities and become involved in the community.

“I became very lonely,” McQueary said, to nods and sympathetic looks from those listening.

“I just knew I couldn’t go on the way I was going.”

A growing demographic Most seniors feel they are faring well — they are satisfied, or very satisfied, with their lives, local and national studies say.

Nearly 95 percent of adults 50 and older reported feeling that way, and nearly 90 percent said they receive adequate amounts of support, according to The State of Mental Health and Aging in America report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from 2008.

But for the small percentage that isn’t OK, finding and asking for help is difficult, and the consequence means increasing isolation and a higher risk for mental illness such as depression and anxiety, say professionals from local aging resource organizations.

SEE SENIORS, P8

About this series In this week’s issue, Colorado Community Media explores why men and seniors are frequently reluctant to ask for help, the cultural expectations that make doing so difficult and other reasons for the growing need for mental health resources and support for these sometimes overlooked populations — who are our grandparents, parents, husbands, fathers, sons.

This is the seventh installment in Colorado Community Media’s yearlong Time to Talk series about the state of mental health in Douglas County, which started last December.

Our final segment, scheduled for the Nov. 15 issue, takes a look at how businesses are handling mental health challenges in the workplace.

The first through sixth parts of the series — which reported on mental health challenges among law enforcement, youth, mothers and those also fighting substanceuse disorders — can be found at coloradocommunitymedia.com/ timetotalk/

rett Zachman vividly remembers his first panic attack.

He was driving at 10 a.m. on a Thursday morning, not long after the woman he’d been seeing for three months ended their relationship. That Monday, he’d also signed divorce papers, the final step in an 18-month process ending his 10-year marriage with his wife, whom he’d been separated from for several months.

The latest breakup, Zachman said, became a catalyst unleashing all the emotions he suppressed during his marriage, separation and divorce.

“It felt like the hand of death reached up underneath my rib cage and squeezed my chest,” said Zachman, who lives in Parker. “I thought I was having a heart attack.”

His muscles tensed. His body slowed down.

He felt an emotion that was almost painful.

He began crying uncontrollably.

Zachman pulled into a gas station parking lot and flipped through his phone, searching for someone to call. Finally, he dialed his sister.

“I couldn’t even hardly speak,” he said. “I think I finally kind of broke down and said, ‘I don’t know what’s wrong with me.’ ” SEE MEN, P10

Monday through Thursday, Brett Zachman works as a financial adviser in Littleton. On Fridays, however, the Parker man devotes himself to working on a nonprofit he started to help men, called BeMen. JESSICA GIBBS

Report finds good variety of senior services, but gaps remain

FROM PAGE 7

The reasons, they say, are varied: With advancing age comes more illnesses that may limit physical mobility, curtail independence and lead to isolation. Friends and family members die, leading to loneliness and loss of purpose. Cultural and social norms, particularly among those in their 80s or older who grew up with the Great Depression toughit-out mentality, make it difficult to ask for help. And many still believe a stigma exists to admitting to a mental illness.

But just as mental health is a public health issue for Americans nationwide — one in five adults live with a mental illness — so it is for older adults, who are at an increased risk of depression, the CDC reports. And, the agency’s website points out, their depression is often misdiagnosed or under-treated because symptoms can be mistaken “as just a natural reaction to illness or the life changes that may occur as we age.”

An estimated 20 percent of people 55 or older experience some type of mental health concern, the CDC says. The most common conditions include anxiety, severe cognitive impairment and mood disorders, such as depression or bipolar disorder.

And older men, 85 and older, have the highest suicide rate of any age group, according to the nonprofit Mental Health America.

If demographic projections hold true — that by 2030, largely because of aging baby boomers and longer lifespans, seniors will account for 20 percent of the U.S. population, the CDC reports — then the need for and access to mental health resources will become even more crucial for healthy aging, said Linda Efird, director of behavioral and mental health for InnovAge Colorado. InnovAge is a medical company that provides a range of health care services to older adults to help them remain in their homes and live independently.

Those resources are already lacking because of a shortage of health care professionals, including those working in geriatrics, and too few psychiatric beds in general and specifically for geriatric patients, Efird said.

“We are already feeling the effects of the older population and the need for mental health intervention,” she said. “I think we have to make an effort — more of an effort — to educate our younger students about the aging process, about what they can expect to see, and make sure that our health-care professionals, the programs, have a focus on aging, in geriatrics, in what the needs are.”

‘We want to feel connected’ Douglas County data reflects the national aging trend, with estimates that one in four residents will be 60 years or older by 2030, according to the Colorado State Demography Office.

The proportion of Douglas County residents who are age 60 or older

Among popular activities at the Castle Rock Senior Activity Center are card games.

The center also offers meals, classes and more programs for seniors to get involved in.

JESSICA GIBBS

THE STATE OF AGING About six in 10 older residents say availability of mental health care is “good” or “excellent” in Douglas County, according to the Community Assessment Survey for Older Adults from the Denver Regional Council of Governments Area Agency on Aging.

About nine in 10 rated their overall mental and emotional health the same.

The most commonly cited mental health concern was being bored.

On a national level, nearly 90 percent of adults ages 50 or older said they are receiving adequate amounts of support. Nearly 95 percent reported feeling “satisfied” or “very satisfied” with their lives. That’s according to The State of Mental Health and Aging in America report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from 2008.

That doesn’t mean all seniors are faring well.

An estimated 20 percent of people 55 and older experience mental health concerns, most commonly anxiety, severe cognitive impairment, depression and bipolar disorder. And the rate of older adults with depressive symptoms increases with age.

Depression, however, is not a normal part of aging, the CDC says. It is treatable, the CDC says, and in fact, is one of the most successfully treated conditions. grew by more than 4 percentage points from 2010 to 2016, according to annual population estimates from the American Community Survey of the U.S. Census.

Colleen Morton, wellness coordinator at the Castle Rock Senior Activity Center, works with many of the more than 1,000 seniors who come to the center at 2323 Woodlands Blvd. where they can share meals, play games and take classes. She sees firsthand how life’s changes can alter people’s mental condition.

“Often, they’re states away from where they were living and their emotional support system,” Morton said. “Their friends that they’ve known their entire lives, the community that they grew up in — they’re no longer there.”

Karie Erickson, executive director of Neighbor Network, an aging resource center that serves Douglas County residents, identifies isolation as a key issue for residents — which can lead to mental health conditions such as depression and anxiety.

“When you’re socially isolated,” she said, “that really can lead to a multitude of issues.”

Neighbor Network offers numer-

ous services, but one of its most requested is a companionship program, Erickson said, which as the name suggests connects volunteers with seniors to provide them company. They will visit seniors in their homes, on social visits or make phone calls to help prevent isolation.

“I’m constantly surprised by how many people will say, ‘I want somebody to come visit me,’ ” Erickson said. “They get that renewed sense of friendship and that makes a huge difference.”

Gretchen Lopez is vice-chair of the Seniors’ Council of Douglas County, a volunteer advocacy group for people 60 and older, which hosted the presentation McQueary attended at Legacy Village.

“Sometimes,” Lopez said, “as we age, our world gets much smaller.”

Early in life people find purpose in their career, or their family, but after retirement, things can change.

Children have become adults, spouses may have passed, and it can be difficult to find new activities that provide fulfillment.

That’s why the council held the “finding purpose” event, Lopez said, and why she says McQueary’s determination to change her situation is so important.

“The very nature of human beings is seldom to be alone,” Lopez said.

“We want to feel connected to other people.”

Determined to make a change For McQueary, isolation came after leaving her Florida home.

“I always knew I would come to Colorado, but I thought it would be from the hospital to the plane to the nursing home,” she said. “I just never expected to live with my children.”

She had deep roots in her Florida church, volunteer work she loved and a home she had shared with her husband for more than three decades.

McQueary chose to leave at the invitation of her son, she said. They were building a house and had room for her to live in the lower level.

Knowing he wanted her there was an immense comfort, but it didn’t make the transition easy.

The move itself exhausted McQueary. She had three garage sales before selling her home. When she began unpacking in Castle Rock, she faced what felt like endless decisionmaking, something she used to share with her husband.

As weeks passed, McQueary worried about asking too much time of her son and daughter-in-law.

She avoided calling friends so she wouldn’t drive up the phone bill. She found a new church but didn’t go as often as she wished. And, although she still drove, she and her son agreed she wouldn’t do so in inclement weather.

In June 2017, McQueary traveled to Wisconsin for a family reunion and while there decided to rebuild her life in Castle Rock.

“I was determined — ‘When I come back, I’m going to make a change’ — because I really don’t like this,” she said. “I don’t like this isolation.”

Looking for help For some seniors, stigma around mental health can be a particular barrier to seeking treatment.

“I think there is some obvious hesitation to get help or support, just because we didn’t talk about these things in previous times like we do now,” said Jason Hopcus, president of the National Alliance on Mental Illness for Arapahoe/Douglas Counties.

The reluctance to talk about mental health can be more common among seniors 70, 80 and older, Morton and Lopez said.

“Mental health was not talked about,” Morton said of World War II veterans and people born during the Great Depression in the 1930s. “It’s still an uphill battle with the older senior group.”

Those eras produced a culture in which mental health and mental illness were highly stigmatized,

Fear of judgment keeps men from talking about mental illness

FROM PAGE 7

Letting go of ‘abusive thinking’ What was wrong with Zachman was depression, a mental health condition affecting more than 6 million men in the U.S. each year, according to the National Institute of Mental Health.

Anxiety and bipolar disorder, along with psychosis, schizophrenia and eating disorders are among other common illnesses affecting men, the national advocacy organization Mental Health America says.

But unlike women, who studies show are more likely to receive treatment for mental illness, men often are hesitant to ask for help because of social norms, a reluctance to talk and a tendency to downplay symptoms, according to mental health experts and organizations.

Those factors, taken together with a rising rate of suicide among men — it is the seventh-leading cause of death among males, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) — have spurred many researchers to describe the state of mental health among men as “a silent crisis,” stated Rob Whitley, an associate professor in the Department of Psychiatry at McGill University, in the publication Psychology Today in February 2017.

“A lot of men are out there suffering in high proportions and it’s silent because it’s rarely talked about,” Whitley said to Colorado Community Media. The crisis, he said, is a global one: Between 70 percent and 80 percent of suicide deaths in most countries throughout the world are men, and men account for about 75 percent of substance abuse disorders.

The stigma associated with mental illness, along with barriers of cost and accessiblity to resources, impede the majority of people living with a mental illness from getting the care they need, medical professionals and research shows.

Among men, the greatest barrier may be stigma, say several men interviewed for this story and mental health professionals. The fear of being considered weak, of not measuring up to traditional expectations of masculinity, contribute to staying silent about any mental health challenges.

“Strength, weakness are basic concepts coded into every guy’s inner language,” said Hal Knight, a father in Centennial diagnosed with bipolar disorder, who has attended support group meetings in Highlands Ranch. “If something beats you, then you’re weak.

If you’re depressed and can’t get out of bed, your male brain will tell you that you’re weak, you’re lazy, that you’re not strong enough to be a good father or husband.”

It took him years, Knight said, to “let go of that abusive thinking.”

In Douglas County, where the median household income is $109,292 and the population is generally highly educated, Hopcus high expectations about being successful and providing for your family put additional pressure on men, said Jason Hopcus, president of the National Alliance on Mental Illness

JESSICA GIBBS for Douglas/Arapahoe Counties.

“Not all of Douglas County,” Hopcus said. “But there are some segments of it that are a little like `keeping up with the Joneses,’ and there’s a lot of pressure with that.”

The negative cultural effects arising from that stress can exacerbate or lead to depression, anxiety, substance use and abuse, and a lack of connection within a person’s family, personal or professional life, Hopcus said.

“I think the effects are kind of endless,” he said.

Whitley said in his studies men also reported feeling unheard or dismissed when they did ask for help, which relates back to the issues surrounding stigma, that in society and in families men are expected to be strong, be breadwinners and provide.

Depression manifests itself differently in men than women, who most often express it through sadness, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. In men, symptoms may include rage, irritability and aggressiveness.

They may also seem very tired or lose interest in family, work or hobbies.

Dr. Carl Nassar, president of HeartCentered Counseling, a Littleton-based counseling and therapy center, said men are often taught or believe they need to repress their emotions. But emotions still emerge.

“Repressed feelings really come out primarily in three ways,” Nassar said.

“If you repress a lot of sadness, it will build up into depression. If you repress a lot of anxiety, then you are much more likely to become anxious about a lot of things in life. If you repress a lot of anger, you’re more likely to have Nassar outbursts.”

Nearly 49 percent of women compared to 34 percent of men received care in 2016 for their mental illness, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. But that doesn’t necessarily mean women are struggling at higher rates.

“Women have much higher rates of depression but it’s because they go to the doctor and get diagnosed,” said Jarrod Hindman, deputy chief of the Violence and Injury Prevention Mental Health Promotion Branch of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. “Men just suffer in silence.”

A call to action The rising rates of suicide, considered a national public health crisis, paint a troubling picture of how many men struggle with mental health: Men represent 78 percent of all U.S. suicides, according to the CDC. And men are four times more likely to die by suicide than women.

‘You’re supposed to be the hero’ South metro man discusses stigmas, gender roles amid mental health challenges

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As a husband and father, Hal Knight believed he needed to take care of everyone.

To your children, “you’re supposed to be the hero,” he said. To your spouse, “you’re supposed to be the guy taking care of everybody.”

Knight, 43, who was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in his 20s, has felt

ing working-age men account for the highest number of suicide deaths in the state annually, according to a 2016-17 annual report from the Office of Suicide Prevention. Those men are also the least likely to receive support, according to Man Therapy, a statewide public health campaign that started in 2012 with a goal of getting men mental health resources.

Douglas County reflects the state and national pictures.

Data provided by the Douglas County Coroner’s Office shows of the 44 suicide deaths in the county last year, 35, or more than 79 percent, were men. In 2016, 39 of the 57 suicide deaths, or 68 percent, were men. And in 2015, 49 of the 58 suicide deaths were men. That was nearly 85 percent.

“The 10 states with the highest suicide rates are almost always the Rocky Mountain West,” said Hindman, explaining that numerous factors, including high gun ownership rates and the general culture, contribute to that reality.

“We really embrace that rugged indivudal mentality Hindman in the West.”

The concerns around depression and suicide among men have galvanized local and state organizations and health departments.

A State Innovation Model grant workgroup recently evaluated gaps in Colorado’s behavioral health and this year issued a call to action asking Colorado to focus more on the male population’s health. The State Innovation Model is a governor’s office initiative aimed at better coordinating primary and behavioral health in primary care settings.

“That pretty much called out that we as a state are not really paying enough attention to the needs of men and boys,” said Monica Younger, a behavioral health coordinator with Tri-County Health Department, which serves Douglas, Adams and Arapahoe counties.

The Let’s Talk Colorado campaign, a statewide effort led by a partnership including the Tri-County Health De-

societal pressure as a father and, formerly, as a husband to be a provider — and to be successful. Those expectations also made it difficult for him to talk about his experiences with mental illness.

Knight The roles he felt he needed to play also influenced some of his decision-making in life. A lawyer, Knight worked five years for Colorado’s judicial department before leaving to join a private firm.

But the new workload was immense, Knight said. And he realized the job was not a good fit: “There was no way I could maintain that and be

DID YOU KNOW? More than 6 million American men struggle with depression each year. But the National Institute of Mental Health also says men are less likely to recognize, acknowledge and seek treatment for depression.

When it comes to mental health, more women received care in 2016 compared to men. Nearly 49 percent of women with any mental illness got treatment compared to 34 percent of men.

Colorado suicide rates mirror national trends — men are more likely to die by suicide than women. In 2017, 76 percent of all suicides in Colorado were men, according to the Colorado Violent Death Reporting System. The Colorado Center for Health & Environmental Data breaks those numbers down into various demographics, including by age and gender.

Last year, most suicide deaths in the state occured among people ages 25 to 64. Of those 805 deaths, nearly 76 percent were men.

For people 75 or older, 88 percent were men. Boys and men led each age bracket in terms of suicide rates, including among children, teens and young adults. partment and Douglas County government to destigmatize mental illness, is responding to the recent push by focusing its next campaigns on men, said Patty Boyd, Tri-County’s strategic partnerships manager. The department will work with Man Therapy next year for that campaign.

“We just wanted to draw more attention to men and their unique challenges to opening up about their mental health,” Boyd said. “We’re all in this together. We want everyone to understand that we all have to look out for each other. And men need to hear that message, too: We hear you, we see you, your ability to enjoy life matters.”

One of Man Therapy’s main goals is to reach men who might fit the “man’sman” stereotype, but long before they enter crisis. The message: Taking care of one’s mental health is a sign of strength, not weakness. It’s about being the best man he can be.

Since Man Therapy’s start six years ago, Hindman said, the mission has been to change social norms and how men think of mental health, to empower them to address their mental health and to reduce the suicide rates.

healthy.”

Knight has periodically struggled with depression as a result of his bipolar condition, he said. His earliest recollection of bipolar symptoms date back to 1995, a few years before his diagnosis, when he experienced severe depression and hypomania, a condition marked by symptoms of impulsivity and a heightened mood.

His family helped him get to the hospital in the late 1990s after a period of self-medicating through drugs and alcohol, Knight said, where he was finally diagnosed.

Today he routinely works at maintaining his mental health and is in a stable place — although that took time.

He lives in Centennial and has attended a support group in Highlands Ranch. He still attends another support group through the National Alliance on Mental Illness of Arapahoe/Douglas Counties. Those make a difference, he said.

He’s open with his family, including his 5-year-old son, about his mental health.

Taking care of his health and learning to navigate stigmas is not just about him, Knight said. It’s part of being a good father, now and in the future, and not something he views as weakness.

“When he gets older, if he has mental health issues,” Knight said of his son, “I want to be ready for that.”

advertising, the organization has used humor and a Ron Burgundy-esque character — modeled after actor Will Ferrell’s role in the movie “Anchorman” — to try to ease the stigma around mental health and grab men’s attention. A CDC-funded study is underway to gauge how the website affects men, with results possibly available in 2019, Hindman said.

Getting help and taking care of mental health can look different for each man, Whitley, Hopcus, Younger and Hindman said.

There are apps that can be downloaded — numerous options exist for helping people manage anxiety, sleep and more. Maybe it’s better diet or strategies to manage stress. Perhaps it’s finding connection with others through social groups or exercising. Or seeing a therapist and attending support groups.

Whatever the means, mental health officials are shining a spotlight on men to help those who are struggling avoid becoming a statistic and spiral toward crisis, like suicide.

“If you can catch it before it even gets there,” Nassar said, “that’s ideal.”

Today, Zachman, 47, works in finance.

But he spends every Friday working on BeMen, a Parker-based nonprofit he started eight years ago because of his own experience. The organization’s mission is to help men navigate their mental and emotional health along with their overall well-being, and to help them find a community of other men.

“Men need a place to come and talk,” he said.

The organization began as a divorced men’s group meeting at Zachman’s home. Today it has a website, a Facebook page and offers meetings and events for men of all backgrounds, divorced or not, to come together. One recent event invited five panelists to talk about a range of men’s health topics — from mental toughness to financial freedom and physical fitness.

“If we help men become stronger,” Zachman said, “it creates an amazing ripple effect in society.”

‘It makes you stop and think’ Before his panic attack, Zachman had moved out of the home he shared with his wife and two young sons and started his own promotional merchandising business. For the first time in his life, he lived and worked alone.

He dealt with his emotions in what he described as the machismo way: “I took the route I think a lot of men take.

I don’t need anybody’s help. I don’t need help.”

He began withdrawing from friends and family, isolating himself. He threw himself into work. Internally, he felt like a failure. He hadn’t shared with loved ones how his marriage was struggling, and the divorce came as a surprise to them, he said.

Zachman was not suicidal. Still, he questioned where he’d be today had he not sought help following his panic attack, which he ultimately did through a group therapy program in Boulder.

He also began individual therapy twice a month.

“It helped because it makes you stop and think about what you’re doing and why you’re doing it,” he said, “and brings an objective viewpoint.”

Jessica Gibbs, 26, has been reporting on Castle Rock and Douglas County since joining Colorado Community Media in August 2016.

But she has spent much of her time over the past several months exploring the effects of mental illness on various segments of the county’s population.

ABOUT THE REPORTER

In this week’s issue, her reports on the challenges faced by seniors and men in seeking help for mental illness provide personal looks at the complicated picture of mental health in Douglas County.

“Through every phase of life, people deserve support.” said Gibbs, who grew up in the small Nebraska town of DeWitt and graduated from the University of NebraskaLincoln.

Local land trust wraps up 31st year Douglas County group is devoted to great outdoors STAFF REPORT

Douglas Land Conservancy has spent more than three decades protecting open space, agricultural lands, wildlife habitat and scenic views in the area.

The Castle Rock-based land trust will celebrate its legacy at the annual Oak Leaf Awards event Nov. 9. The conservancy also will honor Ninia Ritchie, conservationist and owner of JA Ranch, which has hosted one of the land conservancy’s fundraising events for 10 years. The 2018 Natural Douglas County photo contest winners also will be recognized.

Douglas Land Conservancy was started in November 1987 by residents concerned about the loss of open space as the Front Range began to boom, according to a news release. The land trust has quietly and consistently worked since then, creating a legacy that includes public parks in Castle Rock and Parker, public open spaces in Douglas County, a community meadow in Perry Park, working ranches in two counties, protected wildlife habitat and countless scenic views, the release said.

The land conservancy protects 11,398 acres of private lands and 11,102 acres of public lands with conservation easements that require regular monitoring visits. In addition, it is working on several projects that could protect an additional 3,000 acres, including a historic ranch, critical wildlife habitats, wetlands and more public open space.

The conservancy’s long-range plan is to continue to steward its protected lands and to protect more open spaces in the region. “DLC has worked hard over the past 30 years to accomplish two ‘forever’ goals — to protect additional pristine open lands and to maintain the viability and integrity of the wildlife habitat, agriculture, scenic quality, outdoor recreation and peaceful enjoyment of

DLC Executive Director Patti Hostetler said in the release.

The land trust also works closely with Castle Rock, Parker and Douglas County to promote appreciation of open space, wildlife and scenic landscapes. “We think our effort in public education will increase the community’s interest in protecting the exceptional landscapes, wildlife and scenery of our county,� Hostetler said. “It also helps DLC publicize our mission and our dedication to preserving the quality of life we all enjoy.�

LAMB FROM PAGE 14

I have been so lucky in my own friendships.

In my last few years of college at MSU Denver I met my boyfriend, Will, and eventually several of his friends. In 2013, Will and I joined in on our friends’ family dinner tradition.

One of us would host and everyone would bring a dish. On Sunday nights we’d catch up on life over plates of homemade noodles, tikka masala, guacamole, whatever the theme was for that day.

Food tastes better when it’s shared with friends. To me, cheesy as it sounds, cooking is the currency of love.

Over the years, friends have moved away, new friends have joined and, although we don’t get together to cook every week any more, we still make sure to meet up every once in a while over a homemade meal.

My love of cooking for people goes back to childhood family holidays.

We’d pack up the car and head to my grandparents’ house in Westminster. Food would sit on the kitchen counters, buffet style, as my pile of cousins, siblings, aunts and uncles filed through with plates of turkey and mashed potatoes.

The holidays were when my family would get together and laugh over our meal, enjoy each other’s company and, depending on the day, cheer on the Broncos or the Avalanche.

As an adult, I now bring my own dish to the table at family meals. I love planning for my family’s various events — a raspberry pie for the whole family because it’s my grandpa’s favorite, potatoes at my

SMITH

dad’s because he doesn’t like vegetables, adventurous international foods with my mom, and so on.

But like Julia, my favorite person to cook for is my partner in crime. For the past seven years, Will and I have spent time huddled in kitchens across the state, sampling soups and sauces. Will’s specialty is guacamole or hot wings, mine is Alfredo or carbonara with homemade noodles.

We are our own worst critics, and Will nearly always finds something wrong with the dishes he makes. But despite Will’s pickiness about his cooking, there are few people with whom I would rather share a kitchen.

Sharing a meal brings warmth to friendships. For me, it starts with a good cookbook: What should I make? What will people like best?

Over the years I have collected cookbooks with cuisine from around the world, including “Mastering the Art of French Cooking” by Julia, with her coauthors and friends, Louisette Bertholle and Simone Beck. My favorite pages are usually earmarked or stained with flour and oil.

The recipes don’t have to be complicated. The presentation doesn’t need to be on par with the finest restaurants in the world.

Julia spent the later years of her life making cooking accessible to everyone, assuring viewers of “The French Chef ” that it was OK to break a few eggs in the kitchen.

It will all turn out fine in the end.

Bon appetit.

He went first, and an assistant delivered his panels to me.

I added mine, in some degree of similarity, glued them side by side, and gave them a title.

“Never Known” is on a back wall at the center, with a firstprize ribbon beneath it the size of an apron.

The center’s events director, Allissa Dailey, arranged a wonderful reception for the exhibit.

Jennifer and I arrived before Matt did, and we kept the news of the prize to ourselves until he had a chance to see the ribbon for himself.

Matt’s not crazy about crowds, and there was a possibility he wouldn’t attend, but the front doors opened, and I watched a friend of his push his wheelchair inside.

I introduced him to Jennifer, and then we led him back to our painting, which I had completed in my studio — and he had not seen.

I watched his face.

He looked happy and pleased and proud.

I looked at Jennifer and we both might have teared up a little.

During Parent Weekend in 1991 at the Rochester Institute of Technology where he was pursuing photography, Matt

was airlifted by helicopter from the crashed car his mother had been driving.

He returned to Colorado (he graduated from Rangeview High School in 1989), paralyzed from the neck down.

He spent six months at Swedish Medical Center and Craig Hospital.

At first he tried to reconnect with photography, but maybe that was too easy. You can click a camera with almost anything.

Why not try to mix oil paint with a palette stick in your mouth?

Why not try to create distinctive portraits with a paintbrush in your mouth?

And that’s what he has been doing.

Perhaps the most wellknown artist with limited mobility, Chuck Close, also paints portraits.

Close had a “catastrophic spinal artery collapse” that left him partially paralyzed, but he is able to work with his hands, and continues to paint largescale portraits that are placed in museums and private collections worldwide.

This ride Matt and I are on is one more immeasurable gift that art has given to me.

ason Miller grew up in a small mountain town on the Western Slope of Colorado and in an agricultural community in Montana. He often hunted with his father, a taxidermist. They ate venison nearly every day.

When he was 19, Miller started to question his lifestyle.

“Most of that meat I saw killed and even participated in the hunt,” Miller, now a Littleton resident, said. “At a certain point, it started to add up on me.”

That year, Miller, now 47, became a vegetarian. A year later, for the welfare of all animals, he switched to a vegan diet. The diet is referred to by many health organizations as the strictest form of vegetarianism.

Vegans abstain from all animal-based products — meat, eggs and dairy. Some reject wool and leather products.

Around the corner is the holiday season. The time of year typically involves celebrating with friends and family, indulging in rich roasts and decadent, dairy-filled deserts — items that are not on a vegan’s list of things to eat. But with the right amount of planning and communication, vegans like Miller make it work.

Servings: 4 Ingredients: 1/4 cup canola oil, 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup vegetable broth, 3 tablespoons tamari sauce, 2 cups soy milk, 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast, ground black pepper to taste.

Directions: Heat the canola oil in a skillet over medium heat. Whisk flour, vegetable broth and tamari into the hot oil. Cook and stir for about 5 minutes, until there are no lumps and the mixture becomes paste-like. Pour the soy milk into the skillet. Cook and stir for about 5 minutes, until the mixture thickens. Add yeast and black pepper, stir.

Mashed potatoes Prep time: 10 minutes Cook time: 35 minutes Servings: 4 Ingredients: 2 pounds russet potatoes, 8 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed, 1 sprig fresh rosemary, 1 sprig fresh thyme, 1/4 cup olive oil, a pinch of salt and ground black pepper to taste.

Directions: Place potatoes, garlic, rosemary, and thyme in a large pot, cover with salted water and bring to a boil. Cook covered for about 30 minutes, until potatoes are easily pierced with a knife. Drain,

but keep 1 cup of cooking water. Transfer the potatoes and garlic to a bowl, and dispose rosemary and thyme. Add olive oil, salt and pepper. Mash with a potato masher and add cooking water to reach desired consistency.

Meringues Prep time: 30 minutes Cook time: 1 1/2 hours Servings: 25 Ingredients: 1 15-ounce can of chickpeas, 1/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar, 3/4 cup of white sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract (optional).

Directions: Preheat oven to 210 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with baking parchment paper. Drain chickpeas and save 1/2 cup of liquid from the can.

Pour chickpea liquid into a bowl and add the cream of tartar. Beat mixture using an electric mixer until soft peaks form.

Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, as you continually beat until glossy peaks form, about 20 minutes; beat in vanilla extract until well incorporated.

Spoon mixture into a piping bag and pipe into small circles, about 1 inch in diameter, onto the prepared baking sheet.

Bake for about 90 minutes, until the meringues are firm and come away easily from the parchment paper. Remove from the oven and allow at least 15 minutes to cool.

or the entire second half of the 20th century and beyond, most Americans were presented with one perspective on the island nation of Cuba.

Thanks to governmental changes in both nations, many are gaining COMING better underATTRACTIONS astanding of the nation than ever before.

That all important cultural and environmental exploration can begin at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science’s, 2001 Colorado Blvd., Clarke Reader new exhibition, “¡CUBA!” This family-friendly exhibition — presented in English and Spanish — is free with general admission entry.

“The exhibits covers many aspects of Cuba, both as a natural ecosystem and as a culture,” said Hugo Valdez, museum programs specialist at the museum. “It is important we provided new perspectives on the island. We want people to know how vibrant the culture is there.”

The island nation is actually an archipelago of more than 4,000 islands and keys, and home to 11 million people. Cuba is also one of the region’s most ecologically diverse countries, with the Caribbean’s healthiest coral reefs, most significant wetlands and largest rainforest.

The main feature of the exhibition is a replica plaza, which gives attendees the chance to learn more about day-to-day life in a Cuban town. By wandering through the plaza, visitors can learn about everything from dominoes, foods and coffee and music that can be heard on a local radio station.

There’s also information on the nation’s 16 baseball teams and the vintage cars that make Cuban streets such a colorful and nostalgic means of travel.

On the more natural side, visitors can explore re-creations of the island’s habitats, with lifelike models representing its distinctive wildlife, both modern and extinct, and live lizards. About 50 percent of Cuba’s plants and 32 percent of its vertebrate animals are endemic, found only on the island.

As is the case with every exhibit, the museum has integrated the Denver community into the proceedings, adding live musical and SEE READER, P22

Patricia Ann Paul’s recently published memoir title: “Curse of Interesting Times: A Vietnam Era Memoir,” is based on a reputed Chinese curse, “May you live in interesting times,” which has no proven source. But, it was certainly appropriate during what she calls “the Vietnam quagmire” — and unfortunately, strikes home today.

The book opens March 31, 1968, as she and her fiance, John, watch President Lyndon Johnson’s announcement that he would not run for another term — due to the Vietnam War. Wedding plans were made for midJune, soon after graduation from the University of Iowa for both — and John was enrolled in graduate school, while Patricia planned to start teaching nearby. His draft status was 1A and the hope of deferment for graduate school involved holding out through the summer without being drafted. Paul mentions Ken Burns’ statement, connected to his recent documentary about the Vietnam War, which had escalated since 1964, resulting in death for young Americans, that “it is central to understanding who we are now …” That is a thread that runs through the book, with its historic notes heading many chapters. (I found this really engaging.)

That year (1968) was the Age of Aquarius. “Hair” opened on Broadway; 16,889 American soldiers died in Vietnam; Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy were assassinated; anti-Vietnam War riots roiled the Democratic National Convention; Americans elected Richard Nixon, the only president to resign … Apartment rental was impossible due to John’s draft status — life focused on the mailbox. John managed to get one semester completed, but had to report Feb. 18 of the next year — after Richard Nixon had become president. After basic training, with the threat of Vietnam assignment constantly hanging over his head, John was assigned to Mannheim, Germany — somewhat familiar territory to Patricia, who had traveled in

Germany. At least for a time, the couple could be together, although the possibility of reassignment hung in the air.

They found a small apartment on the third floor of Frau Schaffer’s house. Despite peeling wallpaper and inadequate heating, they settled into a routine — John became an MP and Patricia found some teaching jobs — A necessary because money was short. 2 When there was time off, they were p able to explore in Germany, including f during a visit from her parents, which E included some humorous incidents, s lovingly recounted …

A Bits of recent history are smoothly stitched in. With her parents, they p set off on a trip “down the Romantic a Road” to Rothenburg ob der Tauber o — an outstanding historically rich K spot with a medieval castle, begun in r the 10th century. During World War n II, six Americans were sent to offer e the Germans a three-hour window w to surrender — or the city would be heavily bombed. The German comt mander gave up the town, saving it c for posterity, Paul writes. “Thank t goodness!” Legends about the 17th o century’s disastrous Thirty Years War r were re-enacted around the marvelous mechanical clock in the square. More m easy-to-absorb historic tidbits … Next t came a visit to Mad King Ludwig’s p Bavarian realm, including the white fairy-tale castle, made more famous by its Disneyland copy …

Later the couple visited Berlin, still “trapped behind the Iron Curtain” — an experience Patricia felt that John F should have before they headed for home and law school … Heavy, heavy fog greeted them and stayed with them through a scary flight to still war-damaged Berlin, now a popular travel destination with shiny shops and hotels.

Eventually, Vietnam became part of our history and in “Epilogue I,” the more mature Pauls returned to Germany in 1991 with their two sons, Ryan and Evan, freshmen in college and high school. Pieces of the fallen Berlin Wall were appearing for sale. The family flew on Christmas Day, armed with new guidebooks. Landing in Frankfurt, they head for Berlin and search for a Hotel Pension Goethe with no exterior signage evident.

LEAP assistance program launches online application STAFF REPORT

Colorado’s Low-Income Energy Assistance Program will kick off the 2018-19 season with a new online application process for individuals and families needing heating assistance.

Enrollment for the 2018-19 program started Nov. 1 and continues through April 30.

“With the new online application process, individuals can apply from any device, or they can still visit one of our county locations,” Theresa Kullen, LEAP manager, said in a news release. “We believe everyone who needs assistance is going to find this is easier, takes less time and overall the whole process is more efficient.”

Applications can be accessed through LEAP’s website at www. colorado.gov/cdhs/LEAP, which links to the state’s CO PEAK system for online application, which consolidates resources in one easy-to-use location.

For program eligibility, candidates must pay home heating costs directly to a utility company or landlord as part of their rent, be a permanent

If approved, LEAP payments are usually made directly to the primary heating vendor and a notice is sent to individuals regarding the benefit amount. Last year, approximately 65,000 applications were approved with assistance averaging $337 to $674 across the state.

Other benefits provided by the program include repair or replacement of a home’s primary heating system.

LEAP is a federally-funded program that helps Coloradans pay a portion of home heating costs during the winter.

Plan ahead For people on a vegan diet, planning ahead is key, said Cynthia Dormer, a registered dietitian and assistant professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver.

“Plan ahead what your meal is going to be,” Dormer said. “Find things that you really enjoy and that are special to you so that you can enjoy the holiday.”

That’s easy for Miller, who buys meat and dairy substitutes at the local grocery store. His favorite during the holiday season is a tofu “tofurkey” breast with stuffing inside. For dessert, his freezer is stocked with vegan ice cream, which is typically made with a coconut or almond milk substitute.

“There are so many options now,” Miller said. “There’s always some central dish that you can have.”

Vegans looking to dine out have options.

On Thanksgiving Day from noon to 7 p.m., Native Foods Café, 680 S. Colorado Blvd., Denver, will offer a buffet special with all-vegan options.

Menu items are a plant-based roast, shepherd’s pie, apple-cider braised Brussels sprouts, mashed potatoes and gravy, among other holiday favorites.

Adults pay $29.99, kids 12 and under cost $14.99 and children under 2 are free.

Whole Foods offers a catering menu with vegan-only items and recipes.

The main dish is a Thanksgiving

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

Don’t let food get in the way While delicious meals add to the magic of the holiday season, the real joy is in the time spent with family and friends. Dormer encourages people to communicate early and not let diets or restrictions ruin a celebration.

“Vegan people can sometimes have a self-righteous attitude, and certainly they are right in the sense that their

approach is more environment- and animal-friendly,” Dormer said. “But if the people around them feel judged for eating their favorite food, that can cause some conflict.”

In Miller’s experience, many people view eating vegan as too challenging and expensive.

“It’s a matter of finding the right replacements and I can guarantee all of those things are out there,” Miller said. “It’s so doable.”

Scott Spears hopes to make it easier for meat eaters and vegans to dine together in the future.

He is behind Arvada’s first vegan, plant-based eatery that will also have protein add-ons on the

Vegan: a plant-based diet that excludes all animal-derived ingredients, such as meat, eggs and dairy products.

Vegetarian: a meat-free diet that excludes any meat, poultry, game, fish, shellfish, or by-products of animal slaughter.

Pescatarian: a diet that excludes meat or poultry but allows the consumption of fish.

Source: healthline.com menu. His restaurant, All Raddish, is expected to open in early 2019 across the street from School House Kitchen and Libations, 5660 Olde Wadsworth Blvd., which he also owns.

“It’s really hard to go out and eat,” Spears, a vegetarian, said of eating vegan.

“Strictly vegan restaurants do a great job, but there aren’t a lot of them.”

You’ve got mail — from Polynesia Who better to give audiences a window into a new culture than one of the demi-gods that helped create it in the first place.

That’s the plan at The BiTSY Stage, 1137 S. Huron St. in Denver, with their new production of

“Aloha: Postcards from Polynesia.”

This family-friendly show runs through Nov. 18. Performances are 7:30 p.m. on Fridays and noon at 2 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.

All performances are free, but donations are accepted.

Written and directed by Samantha McDermott, “Aloha” is the 10th adaptation of international folk tales presented by The Bitsy Stage.

The show takes audiences on a tour of the islands of Polynesia with demi-god Maui, while he shares of the islands’ creation.

The theater’s adaptations of international folk tales celebrate the things all people have in common while exploring the differences that make the world so rich.

Reservations can be made at www.bitsystage.com.

Going ‘Skyward’ with Brandon Sanderson Brandon Sanderson is the type of fantasy author who writes big books. Books that take place in thoughtfully and immaculately created worlds, full of characters

that leap off the page into readers’ hearts.

So, it’s exciting to when Sanderson decides to get a little more succinct in his young adult novels. His latest work is “Skyward,” the first book in an epic new fantasy series about a girl who dreams of becoming a pilot in a world at war.

Sanderson will be coming to the Tattered Cover Colfax store, 2526 E. Colfax Ave., for an evening from 7 to 9 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 15.

The event includes a presentation and singing, and the cost of admittance includes a copy of “Skyward,” and a place in the signing line.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Pusha T at Summit Music Hall “If you know, you know.” That’s the song Virginia-born Pusha T begins his masterful third solo album “Daytona” with, and the title also doubles as the rapper’s ethos. While others are making flashy videos

and stage shows and living outsized personal lives, Pusha has quietly built one of the most bulletproof discographies in the business.

From there, he’s let rap fans come to his music based on his skills.

“Daytona” is most his most concise and hard-hitting release yet, and is the rap album to beat in 2018.

In support of this killer release, Pusha T will be swinging by the Summit Music Hall, 1902 Blake St. in Denver, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 13.

He initially gained recognition as part of the duo Clipse, and signed on at GOOD Music in 2010.

He’s one of the best voices rap has right now, and you shouldn’t pass up the opportunity to see him perform in small venue like Summit.

The Fangtastic Festival featured inflatable bounce houses, games, booths and plenty of trick-or-treating.

Many came in costume to celebrate the year’s spookiest holiday.

Addie Ong, 4, visited the balloon-animal stand dressed head-to-toe in SWAT gear. Earlier, she made sure to visit with law enforcement officers greeting trick-or-treaters at the festival.

“She picked it out. She said, `I want to be a police officer,’” said Addie’s mother, Erin. Meeting a Colorado State Patrol officer was “the highlight of her whole day,” Erin said

Across the park was Kolter Becker, 7, dressed as his favorite superhero, Captain America.

Kolter and his mother, Brook, said the family would celebrate later with chili, cinnamon rolls and a Halloween movie.

And nearby was the Buscemi family — Tony, Coco and 18-month-old Evelyn, who was dressed as a ladybug. The trio moved to Castle Rock from China two months ago and planned to go trick-ortreating later in the day with family.

As the event neared its end, families trickled in and out of the nearby Dazbog Coffee shop for hot chocolate, some stopping to count and sort their candy from the festival.

Addie Ong, 4, chose to dress as a heavy-duty SWAT officer for her 2018 Halloween costume. Here, she stops to get a balloon animal after taking a picture with a Colorado State Patrol trooper at the Fangtastic Festival Oct. 31.

Lauren Ehmke, who ran a booth for Castle Rock Smiles, said it was her first time attending the event, but she believed it was a hit.

“It’s going great. We’re handing out a ton of stuff,” she said. “There’s a ton of kids.”

Amazon 4-Star store opens at Park Meadows Location features products rated four stars or higher, area’s trending items

BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Shoppers can go from browsing the latest technology to state-of-the-art cookware to the top-selling books in one brief stroll around the Amazon 4-star outlet store, the newest attraction at Park Meadows mall in Lone Tree.

Amazon 4-star opened Nov. 1 and is an assortment of products found on Amazon.com rated at four stars or better. Real customer reviews and average online ratings, up to five stars, accompany product price tags.

Some displays are advertised as “Trending in Denver,” marking the placement of products with high online popularity from Denver-area shoppers. Other displays are labeled “Frequently Bought Together” and “Most Wished-For,” popular categories when shopping on Amazon.

“It’s all about product discovery at a place like this,” said Cameron Janes, vice president of Amazon 4-star.

“These products are on Amazon. com, but you’re not often exposed to them because you’re searching for your specific thing. Here, we make it really easy to discover something for yourself or for gifts, and because ev-

The Amazon 4-Star store is made up of products with at least four-star ratings. Some products are curated specifically to products that trend well online in the area.

erything makes that curation bar, you don’t have to worry about if it’s a good product. They’re all good products.”

Danny Kim and his family, who live in Littleton, are frequent shoppers on Amazon.com. His wife and his son, Maximus, walked around the new store on its opening day impressed with the variety of products they loved online. The Kims stopped to let Maximus try out some of the hottest toys.

“It’s a chance for us to get our hands on the stuff,” Danny Kim said. “It’s

more convenient than getting something, then having to wait for it and return it if we don’t like it. If you really like something you can get it.”

Amazon 4-star is just the second of its kind in the United States. The first Amazon 4-star opened in New York in September. The space at Park Meadows was initially reserved for an Amazon Books store, another brickand-mortar Amazon shop, of which there are 17 in the country, focusing mostly on books and tablets.

According to Amazon officials,

the company changed its mind and brought a 4-star instead.

Evelyn Scott, a local librarian and Park Meadows shopper, was surprised to see an Amazon 4-star, but said she thinks the store will be useful when trying to find gifts for her granddaughter. Scott said she is an Amazon Prime member and will still likely shop online primarily. Scott said she thinks the store would be helpful to test out newer products.

“I think it’s interesting that we’re heading so much toward technology and things online, but then we come right back to people still want to touch and see it,” Scott said.

The store also features Amazon’s flagship products like the Kindle e-book reader, Kindle Fire tablet and Ring, an easy-to-use front door security camera. Amazon Prime members are offered a discount price, which matches the product’s online price.

Products in the store are constantly changing, Janes said, reflecting changes in local trends or seasonal products.

Janes added that a product is immediately pulled off the shelves if it fails to meet at least four stars online. The curation process is done by Amazon employees.

“They’re looking at those products that are selling well and are highly rated and using some human judgment as well. There’s some art and science involved as well,” Janes said.

“We’re constantly curating the store and making sure it lives up to the name on the front.”

Castle View claimed a 35-20 firstround football playoff victory over Fountain Fort Carson on Nov. 3 at Douglas County Stadium, and the Sabercats are hoping one of their best games is still to come.

The Sabercats will take an 8-3 record into a second-round game against third seeded and perennial state contender Cherry Creek.

The game against the 9-1 Bruins is set for 7 p.m. on Nov. 9 at the Stutler Bowl in Greenwood Village. A community fan rally is set for 4 to 4:30 p.m.

“I’m proud of our staff and kids,” said coach Todd Casebier. “They’ve done everything I’ve asked and they deserved to be in the playoffs. They are in the final 16 for a reason and we have a tall task ahead. We are going to have a good week and go play our game, that’s all we can do.

You have to play your best to even be in the game. If we don’t play our best football, they will run us off the field.”

Castle View is comfortable running the football and ran Fountain Fort Carson off the field using its season-long formula of wearing down defenses with a strong running game, a few timely passes and several quick

counts that can often catch defenses off guard.

The Sabercats jumped to a 28-6 lead at halftime and added an insurance TD early in the fourth quarterback to stall any Trojan comeback hopes.

“I thought our offensive line controlled the game the whole time, our backs ran tough, our quarterback got us in the right plays and our defense did a great job in the first half of keeping them out of the end zone,” said Casebier.

The Sabercats, who converted four of five fourth downs, rushed for 320 yards in the game. Jordan Johnson and Cole Oster each ran for two touchdowns and quarterback Josh Mullenix tallied the final Castle View TD on an 8-yard quarterback sneak. He also gained 46 yards on a run in the first half.

Jordan Jackson carried the ball 25 times and gained 101 yards. Zane Wodark finished with 97 yards on 23 carries and Mullenix had 54 yards on two carries.

“Our running game was the best we’ve seen this year,” said Mullenix.

“We got lucky on a couple of those quarterback sneaks. I’ve never seen our offensive line play that kind of football. Those holes were just opening up.

“We are going to play a pretty good Cherry Creek team. We know a lot of guys on that team, but we know if we play our brand of football we are going to have a good chance.”

olorado Mesa University volleyball standout Kasie Gilfert has a message that sounds simple for players who will be participating in the CHSAA State Volleyball Championships on Nov. 8-10 at the Denver Coliseum.

Now, here comes that word “however,” which usually means the statement that follows OVERTIME contradicts the previous words.

So when Gilfert says to have fun, she knows that isn’t easy when putting in the hard work, trying to win and having to Jim Benton deal with adversity presented during matches and tournaments.

The message Gilfert was sending was that it going to get tougher at the next level so have fun in high school.

Gilfert played in the state tournament when she was a four-year volleyball starter and letter winner, plus a two-season captain at Legend. She set school single-season records for hitting percentage (.428) and blocks (158) as a junior. She also lettered in track and field.

“The biggest advice I have for the girls playing in the tournament is to just have fun and enjoy those moments,” said Gilfert.

“Enjoy who they are playing with and also enjoy volleyball because some of them are seniors and they might be going to the next level or they might not be. So for some, it could be their last time playing and you want it to be a positive experience and you learn so much stuff from those experiences in volleyball.

“We have so much responsibility in college that fun is not an option.

You have weights in the morning, practice, traveling and there is so much more that comes with the higher level of volleyball.”

The 6-foot redshirt sophomore is a middle blocker/right-side hitter who is having a banner season at CMU this season..

Gilfert, a transfer from Northern Arizona, leads NCAA Division II in hitting percentage at .453 and has recorded five 20-plus kill efforts.

Pet drive to benefit animal-rescue organizations STAFF REPORT

Racing for Paws, a Denver-based nonprofit, is accepting donations for its pet drive that will benefit three animal rescue organizations in the area — Freedom Service Dogs, Nikeno’s Second Chances Rescue and Rocky Mountain Cocker Rescue.

The drive runs through Nov. 17, and all donations can be dropped off at

She is the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference leader in hitting percentage and also ranks high in kills, total points and blocking.

Gilfert, as of Nov, 1, led all three NCAA divisions in hitting percentage and she is on pace to break school records for hitting percentage.

This season she became CMU’s first ever American Volleyball Coaches Association Division II Player of the Week. She has been selected as the RMAC Player of the Week three times so far this season She said playing in the CHSAA state tournament

Montessori Peaks Academy, 9904 W. Capri Ave., Littleton.

While all donations of food items, supplies and money are accepted, some specific items the drive is seeking are blankets, rope toys, bowls, dingo dog leashes, medium and large harnesses, nylon dog leashes, medium and large dog beds, squeaky plush toys and grain-free dog food.

Freedom Service Dogs trains shelter

helped her and can help others.

“It helps you just because when you play there, there is so much happening around you, like there are other courts around you and there are a lot of fans,” she explained. “When you reach that higher level there are all those other distractions and you have to learn to tune them out. Playing in a tournament like the state tournament prepares you for that.”

Bye week to get better Eight football teams enjoyed a bye in the Class 5A playoffs and got a week off before second-round games scheduled to be played on Nov. 10.

ThunderRidge was awarded the No. 8 seed and earned

dogs to become assitance dogs for children, veterans, active-duty military personnel and other adults. Learn more at https://freedomservicedogs. org.

Nikeno’s Second Chance Rescue gives dogs structured training before, during and after home placement, which increases the chances of a successful adoption. Learn more at http://nscrescue.org.

a first-round bye, along with Valor Christian, Columbine, Cherry Creek, Eaglecrest, Grandview, Ralston Valley and Pomona.

“It is definitely unchartered waters for Colorado high school playoffs to have a bye week,” said ThunderRidge coach Doug Nisenson.

“The grind of the season, we played 10 straight games and we had our camp right at the end of July and then had a week off before the official start date. So it’s good to have a chance to rest a little and refocus on some littler things that can’t always be addressed the week of games.

He said teams on a hot streak may not like the bye, but it can help those teams that are dealing with injuries.

“If you are banged up, there is no doubt the bye is helpful,” he said.

Rest is good but teams have to maintain their routines.

With the extra time and not having to install a game plan during the first week of the bye, teams can go over some basics that can sometimes be pushed aside during the regular season.

“Instead of installing a game plan the first week we worked on what we feel we need to be better at,” said Nisenson. “We got back to the basics of how we want our kids to run certain routes and little things that at the beginning of the year you get to spend time on but during B:4.73” the season you are coaching on the fly because theT:4.73” goal is to get the game plan installed S:4.73”

and teaching the kids what they are going to go against.

“We’ll see how those top eight teams fare in the second round but it’s a real cool thing for our program to be put in that category with the other teams in the top eight.

We’ve told the team that you’ve earned yourself the right to rest a little bit but the teams that are really going to capitalize on this opportunity are the ones that recognize that the off week is a week to get better like any other week.”

Task force seeks donations STAFF REPORT

The Parker Task Force food bank is seeking donations of holiday food baskets so local families in need can prepare Thanksgiving meals in their homes.

Food baskets should feed a family of four to six, and contain a complete Thanksgiving meal — frozen turkey, aluminum turkey pan, stuffing, canned green beans, canned cream of mushroom soup, butter, dinner rolls, gravy (packet or jar), canned fruit, potatoes, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, pie and Cool Whip.

These baskets or boxes can be dropped off at the Parker Task Force buildling at 19105 Longs Way between 9 a.m. and noon Saturday, Nov. 10; Tuesday, Nov. 13; Wednesday, Nov. 14; or Friday, Nov. 16.

The food bank also seeks monetary

NORTON FROM PAGE 14

They would rather continue to tweet and post messages or videos from the past and from someone who happen to be championing a different point of view at the time. It has become a feeding frenzy.

Trust will never be found again or earned again by anyone if our extremism and fanaticism remain where it is today. The point-of-no-return politics has already ruined and corrupted our country, are we really going to let it drive a wedge so far between us as a people that we will continue to erode our trust in one another to the point of no return?

And if so, who can we ever stand up as a leader and who can withstand the scrutiny of opinion and judgment driven by bias without knowledge, by opinion without fact?

If we can’t trust our politicians at the very highest levels, and we can’t trust the systems that drive our politics,

donations in any amount.

“The holiday season is a vital time to raise money for all nonprofits,” Parker Task Force chairman Steve Budnack said in a news release. “Any additional funds collected during Thanksgiving will be used to help provide limited financial assistance to prevent eviction or utility shut-off through the winter months.”

Checks made payable to the Parker Task Force (memo: Thanksgiving), 19105 Longs Way, Parker, CO 80134.

You may also make a Thanksgiving contribution using PayPal through the Parker Task Force website, www. parkertaskforce.org.

The task force can also use gift cards to local grocery stores to purchase perishable food for the food bank.

For information, call the Parker Task Force at 303-841-3460 or send an email to foodbank@parkertaskforce.org. who can we trust? At a minimum, we have to be able to trust one another. We have to be able to come to the center, or at least close enough to it where we can talk rationally about how to fix the brokenness. Trust lost is not easily found, as we read in the parable above.

But it’s not impossible to be found and earned again.

There is a Proverb that reads, “A gentle response turns away wrath.”

Perhaps as we consider building trust with one another again, we begin with listening first, seeking first to understand, and responding with gentleness instead of wrath.

So how about you? How is your trust level these days? Can we get back to trusting one another? I really would love to hear your story of trust at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we can learn to come back to center and restore trust, it really will be a better than good world.

November 5, 2018

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Your usually carefully made holiday plans could be subject to change later this month. Use this week to prepare for that possibility by starting a Plan B just in case you need it.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Be careful about joining a colleague’s plan to solve a workplace problem. Investigate it thoroughly.

Otherwise, you could find yourself in a predicament with other associates.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Slow down that highpaced whirl you’ve been on. Spending quiet time alone or with people you care for can be both physically and spiritually restorative.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Make suggestions, not demands. You’ll be more successful in getting people to follow your lead if you exercise quiet patience instead of strong persuasion to get your ideas across.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) You still need more facts before you can make an informed career choice. One note of caution: Be careful about whom you ask for that information; otherwise, you could be misled.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Changing situations through the end of the week could lead to some challenging opportunities for those perspicacious Pisceans who know how to make them work to their advantage.

BORN THIS WEEK: You have a way of being both daring and cautious, traits that could make you a research scientist or maybe even a rocket-ship designer.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Although your energy level is high, be careful not to commit to too many projects at this time. You’ll do better focusing on just a few tasks rather than spreading yourself too thin.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your heart might be leading you in one direction, but pay attention to your keen Bovine intellect. I’m cautioning you to think things through before making any commitments.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Your “serious” Twin has been dominant in your life for quite a while. It’s time now to let that “wilder” half take you out for some good times — perhaps with someone very special.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Career aspects are high for Moon Children who make a good impression. Show people not only what you can already do, but also how you can be more valuable to them in the future.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Things start to brighten for the Lion’s immediate financial future. But be careful to resist the urge to splurge. You need to tuck something away to help you through another tight period.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Having to do too many tasks in too short a time could lower your mood to just above the grumbling level. But if you handle things one at a time, you’ll get through it all soon enough.
