School board must blend old, new Incoming members will replace three incumbents

By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com Despite philosophical differences in their approach to education, board members on different sides of the election campaign are pledging to work together in the best interests of students.

Newcomers David Ray, Anne-Marie Lemieux and Wendy Vogel, who defeated incumbents Kevin Larsen, Craig Richardson and Richard Robbins, bring different ideas

— particularly on the school district’s reform policies — to the previously like-minded board.

On Nov. 4, the day after the election, Doug Benevento, board of education vice president, released an emailed statement.

“While last night’s election results did not represent the choices I would have preferred, the voters have spoken clearly and I want to congratulate the winning candidates,” Benevento said. “The new board has obvious differences but we all care for our kids and our schools. In the coming days and months, I hope we can unite and move forward around that common sentiment.”

Benevento said he hopes to work with

new board members on issues — such as school finance and safety — that are important to all in the district.

Ray, who served as a teacher and principal in the district for 25 years, said the newly

elected members of the board look forward to working with current members as well.

He also said that they are not opposed to progress or change in the district.

“I think what you’re going to hear us talk about is what reform really is,” Ray said. “Unfortunately, reform has got a bad, negative connotation. We are all about change. We believe that we can continually

HELLO

...

My Name Is

A glimpse of the people in our community

DENISE FULLER Florist, grandmother, sarcastic About me I’ve been in the floral business for 36 years.

We’ve owned Castle Rock Florist for 22 years and the shop itself has been here since 1968. I’m a certified professional florist. I’ve spent a lot of years on the Floral Association of the Rockies Board of Directors. We specialize in the fresh-cut floral. We also do permanent botanical, also known as silk flowers. We do a lot of custom work. We do green plants, a lot of holiday items, a lot of Coloradobased products. We have hand-made chocolates

from the Denver area. Our candles are hand-made from Windsor, Colorado.

Floral advice for winter On the indoor plants, typical care. Make sure they aren’t by any hot or cold drafts. Sometimes, you move stuff around in the summertime, so you want to make sure they aren’t sitting right next to a heat vent getting crispy. Or that they aren’t next to a back door that might get open and they might get a little bit of a freezer burn on their leaves.

Passionate about family My family. Enjoying the grandkids. I have 10 total. Four are local. I like to have fun. I’m pretty sarcastic and can be pretty silly at times. My crew sees that. I consider myself very blessed, very fortunate.

We get to do work for people on a day-to-day basis and make them happy and come to them at a time of need and do something lovely for them. I work with a tremendous group of people and we have a lot of fun. When I say I’m passionate about my family, my crew here is my family, also.

Painted cars told story of support in school race

Challengers’ names were publicized in grassroots way

HOW THEY FINISHED

By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com

District A Wendy Vogel: 48,545 votes (58.7 percent)

District C Anne-Marie Lemieux: 48,072 (58.2 percent)

District F David Ray: 48, 628 (59.1 percent)

Craig Richardson: 34,050 (41.2 percent)

Kevin Larsen: 34,430 (41.7 percent)

Richard Robbins: 33, 634 (40.9 percent)

For the past few months, cars across Douglas County have been driving around with the names of David Ray, Anne-Marie Lemieux and Wendy Vogel painted on their rear windows.

On Nov. 3, the three candidates won election to the Douglas County School Board, defeating a slate of incumbent candidates that included the current board president, Kevin Larsen.

The painted cars may have played a major role in making that a reality.

“People who I never thought were that interested or involved were driving around with their cars painted for Ray, Lemieux and Vogel,” said district parent Jason Virdin. “I think it really speaks to the grassroots nature of the campaign and that parents really care about their children’s education.”

Robin Handy, a Spanish teacher at Castle View High School, said car painting was the best marketing the candidates could have hoped for and helped spread their message.

“I actually think painting the cars worked really well,” Handy said.

“Whenever I would bring the candidates up to someone, they would say, ‘I’ve seen the names on the cars.’ It was really effective.”

The grassroots effort extended to fundraising, with the challengers raising more money than their opponents in contributions reported so far, thanks to dozens of contributions each.

Campaign finance reports as of press time showed that David Ray raised more than $24,000 in campaign contributions.

Anne-Marie Lemieux raised more than $21,000 and Wendy Vogel raised more than $18,000. At least 60 people contributed to

A look at the outcomes of the Douglas County School Board race:

each of their campaigns.

None of the incumbents — Larsen, Craig Richardson and Richard Robbins — raised more than $5,100 in donations reported so far. Richardson’s contributions from 23 donors were the most.

What the individuals’ fundraising reports do not account for is third-party money.

An ad broadcast on the Fox News Channel and other cable networks, paid for by the organization Douglas County Education Alliance, attacked Ray, Vogel and Lemieux.

The purpose of the Greenwood Village-based group — an independent expenditure committee — was to “support or oppose candidates running in school board elections,” according to the Colorado secretary of state’s database.

It was not known how much was spent on the commercial or how much money the group had raised, as no donations or expenditures were listed for the alliance as of the Sept. 30 reporting date. The TV commercial began airing the first week in October. The next reporting period ends Dec. 31, nearly two months after the election.

It is also not known how third-party money may have benefited the slate of challengers.

“We conquered the big machine out there, that typically buys elections,” Ray said. “We conquered that and now we have a community that is coming together for the right cause.”

Lemieux said it wasn’t hard to rally

support for their cause.

The slate of challengers promoted more teacher and parent input, including a community survey.

“When we are all doing what’s best for kids, it’s very easy to have people that support that cause,” Lemieux said. “That’s the whole point of public education.”

Larsen was gracious in defeat, admitting that the challengers’ positions fell more in line with what the community wanted this time around.

“Anytime you have an election, it is competition of positions and ideas you have, and theirs prevailed,” Larsen said.

Many in the community now hope that the election of the three new board members will mean more public input on the school board.

“The biggest thing I look forward to is for this community, the parents, the students, the teachers to have a voice, which they haven’t had,” said parent Linda Pelo. “It’s a great opportunity to have people work hand-in-hand together instead of going one direction and teachers being afraid to speak up and share ideas.

It’s really awesome that we know the three people that are going in will give us a voice again.”

Virdin said that he hopes public comment time at board meetings will be lengthened and that a parent survey will be conducted in the near future.

“The community would like to see less animosity,” Virdin said. “I’m hopeful that the board will work with the three new members, but I’m not confident.”

School board winners must be sworn in Staff report Before David Ray, AnneMarie Lemieux and Wendy Vogel can be sworn in to their newly won seats on the Douglas County School Board, the county must first certify election results.

A session to do so is scheduled for Nov. 19.

Once that is done, the three have 10 days to take the oath of office and be sworn in. Legally, this must be done no later than Nov. 30.

To do so, a special meeting of the school board will likely need to be called, and Nov. 30 is tentatively scheduled as the date, the school district said.

Once the new members are sworn in, the board can then vote for a new president to replace outgoing President Kevin Larsen, who lost his seat to Lemieux.

If more than one nomination occurs, the seven board members will vote by secret ballot. The ballots will be recorded and reported by the board of education secretary.

The same process will take place to elect a vice president.

Groups renew state’s brew brouhaha Sales in grocery stores debated

t

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com While supermarket chains and even some breweries across Colorado are hopped up about the idea of allowing all grocery stores to sell full-strength alcoholic beverages, some neighborhood liquor stores have a case of sour grapes about the whole thing.

Forty-two states allow full-strength liquor sales at all grocery stores. But because liquor store owners may only operate one location under Colorado law, each grocery chain has to choose just one store. Safeway, for instance, chose the Littleton location at Mineral Avenue and Broadway, where a security guard stands watch over a large liquor department at the rear of the building.

Other locations, as well as convenience stores, are restricted to selling 3.2 percent alcohol products, like beer and wine coolers.

So for now, liquor stores have the upper hand when it comes to selling the hard stuff. There are around 1,600 of them in Colorado, employing somewhere around 15,000 people.

The topic comes up now and again in Colorado, with the last time being in 2007, when the ban on Sunday sales was lifted.

This time, the effort has enlisted the help of two people with south metro-area name recognition — John Brackney, former Arapahoe County commissioner and former president of the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce, and former Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson.

The two helped kick off the “Your Choice Colorado” campaign on Oct. 21 in front of the liquor display at the Glendale King Soopers.

“Your Choice Colorado aims to reform Colorado’s Prohibition-era alcohol laws via legislation or a ballot initiative in 2016 to provide consumers with the option to purchase real beer and wine in their neighborhood supermarkets,” reads a news release.

What opponents say Not everyone loves the idea — small, independent liquor stores, for example. Dozens have signed on to “Keep Colorado Local,” along with a number of breweries, distilleries and wineries.

“Out-of-state corporations are interested in changing the way we do business in Colorado by allowing all chain grocers and convenience stores to sell alcohol,” reads the website. “Their goal is to boost profits. What they won’t tell you is that the effort will send money out of our communities, force hundreds of small businesses to close, curtail Colorado’s thriving craft industries, undermine safety and give underage kids more access to alcohol.”

Littleton’s 38 State Brewery, the city’s first, is at the top of the list of the movement’s supporters. Open for two years, it just expanded from a single-barrel capacity to seven, and the owners and staff worry that it might get its legs knocked out from under it while it’s just learning to walk.

“If convenience is the No. 1 consideration, well, is it convenient to put all our liquor stores out of business?” said Steve Schuett, manager. “In our case specifically, it will hurt our distribution. We’re in our infancy. Now we just go to the stores, drink our beer with

Bill Barnes, left, and Josh Engelhardt keep things moving at the busy Woodlawn Liquor store. The store’s owner, Mark Mack, worries it won’t be so busy if a proposal to allow liquor sales in all grocery stores passes. Photo by Jennifer Smith

THE TWO SIDES OF THE ISSUE Your Choice Colorado says: Expanding sales to grocery stores will provide consumers with more choices over when and how they shop and cut beer and wine prices by about 18 percent.

Colorado ranks third in total craft breweries per capita. The other four states among the top five sell alcohol in grocery stores. In our grocery stores, expanded options will increase local craft beer sales by about $125 million.

More choices equal more sales, which will grow the state’s economy. Over several years, increased hiring and sales will produce $2.2 billion in economic activity and 20,000 local jobs.

them, shake hands and get our beer on their shelves within a week. I don’t have a distribution company fighting for me. If we can’t charm them in that way … selling a product via email is not really what sharing a beer is all about. … It’s just not the Colorado spirit.

It’s not the craft brew way.”

Schuett notes that Anheuser Busch recently bought MillerCoors, pending final approval by regulators, and will have 30 percent of the global market.

“We’re fighting monopolies like you can’t believe,” he said. “If the monopoly gets ahold of the big chain stores, how big is that fight going to be?”

Mark Mack, owner of the busy neighborhood Woodlawn Liquors in Littleton, also worries for his future.

“We have several hundred liquor stores in the Denver-metro area right now,” he said.

“Probably in the first year, there will only be about 100 left. We can’t compete. Think of all the jobs that will be lost, and not just at the liquor stores, but at the beer companies, the wine companies. The small, wholesale distributors will vanish. Selection will vanish.

Customer service will be gone.”

Jesse Vance owns Advance Liquors in the shopping center just south of the Safeway that carries full-strength alcohol. It is anchored by a King Soopers, so he predicts

Keep Colorado Local says: Colorado has 1,650 small independent liquor stores and almost half of those small businesses would be forced to close within the first three years.

Altogether, 10,000 Coloradans would lose their job in the first five years.

Colorado would lose $240 million in revenue in the first five years.

Colorado’s liquor-store industry, which contributes $1.9 billion to our state’s economy, would be in jeopardy.

Fifty-two percent of revenue from local retailers returns to Colorado, compared to just 14 percent for national chain retailers.

a struggle should the law change. If it does, he’d like it to include a provision for the chain to buy out his license.

“The way it is now for the independent stores, we’re not allowed to collaborate with each other to increase our buying power,” he said.

A big part of his business is selling beer from breweries like 38 State.

“But wait until they try to get it into a corporation,” he said. “I try to support the small guys as much as possible, because I’m a small guy. … I’ve got my life savings into this place.”

What supporters say St. Patrick’s Brewing Co. in Littleton is one of the exceptions among breweries.

“We’re for it,” said co-owner Dave Barron.

“We think it gives us more opportunities to distribute our beer, and it gives us bigger outlets. … (Other breweries) think the grocery stores are going to bring in more imported beer. But we’re the Napa Valley of beer, so I don’t think that’s going to happen. … We do more sales on site now, but we’re cultivating and working on our wholesale in order for us to grow our business the way we want.”

The grocery chains themselves say that want to keep a focus on local products.

“We see ourselves as Colorado’s neigh-

borhood markets and take great pride in highlighting locally sourced products and entrepreneurs,” said Kelli McGannon, public affairs director for King Soopers, during the Glendale event. “We want to support Colorado’s booming beer scene and blossoming wineries, and provide these great products to our customers, who are clamoring to buy them.”

McGannon was joined by Russ Novotny, Safeway’s regional liquor sales manager, and Michael Cooke, former Douglas County Commissioner and executive director of the Colorado Department of Revenue and the Colorado Department of Regulatory Affairs, along with Brackney and Robinson.

Brackney notes that even though Colorado is home to the third-largest number of breweries per capita in the country, it’s one of only eight states where people can’t buy their beers in the grocery store.

“We’ve seen the rise of consumer-driven conveniences like ride-sharing and online retail, healthcare and banking, yet we still have to travel to two different stores just to complete a dinner,” said Brackney.

“These outdated laws prevent our thriving craft breweries from entering grocery store shelves and prevent consumers from having the choice, convenience and competition that would benefit their family budget and tightly packed schedules.”

As to the allegation that kids would have more access to alcohol at grocery stores, Robinson noted it’s already being done.

“Grocery stores are great partners in the community and will be a safe place to sell beer and wine,” he said. “When I was sheriff, there were numerous grocery stores that chose to place their one location with a liquor license in areas under my jurisdiction, and they never gave me any problems.”

Luke Ouellette is the manager at Davidson Liquors, itself the size of a grocery store.

He says he’ll reserve judgment on any legislation until he sees exactly what it says. The store has been in Highlands Ranch since 1998 and survived the 2007 changes, when one grocery store in each chain began selling hard liquor.

“We maybe saw a slight decrease in business, but not dramatic,” said Oullette.

Artifact could be most significant of 2015 Briefs This Oeskeso effigy of a dog was found during the construction of Rueter-Hess Reservoir.

It was nominated by the Douglas County History Repository to be named Colorado’s most significant artifact in 2015.

Dog effigy found during reservoir construction

By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com It could be a pendant or an amulet or a child’s toy. No one really knows for sure.

What is known is that it was hand-crafted by a hunter-gatherer living around 5,000 years ago in what is now Douglas County, and many agree that the clay figurine depicts a dog.

The Oeškeso zoomorphic effigy found during the construction of Rueter-Hess Reservoir is among the historic items being considered for the title of Colorado Most Significant Artifact of 2015. The effigy was deeply buried and relatively well-preserved when Centennial Archaeology uncovered it in 2005 among a village of pit-dwellings at the reservoir site in Newlin Gulch, just southwest of Parker.

“An effigy in itself is very unique. There are no plains effigies — definitely not from Douglas County or the greater plains region of Colorado,” said Mary Ann Gabriel, a volunteer who nominated the canine-like object on behalf of the Douglas County History Repository.

The annual search for the state’s most significant artifact was launched three years ago by Colorado Collections Connection at the Center for Colorado and the West at Auraria Library, in part to draw interest and funding to help preserve them for future generations.

A panel of history professors, archivists and other experts narrows the entries to the top 15 or 20, and the public then votes on the winner. Artifacts are nominated by museums, libraries, archive-keepers, and cultural heritage institutions, and cannot come from a private collection. The panel ensures that the artifacts originated in Colorado, said Dana Echohawk, program director for Colorado Collections Connection.

Although there is debate over what the

effigy depicts — some say it could be a deer, rabbit or antelope — the prevailing thought is that it shows man’s best friend.

Catherine Traffis, a member of the Parker Area Historical Society, said she feels a special connection to the effigy because it reflects how long dogs have been stalwart companions of people living in the area.

She posted a message about the effigy to the historical society’s Facebook page so “people from Parker could get behind voting for one of their own artifacts,” particularly because such finds are rarely made in Parker.

Effigies had great importance to those who made them.

“The idea is that when you create these objects and possess them, the possessor can perhaps take on some of the qualities of the animal represented,” Traffis said, adding the creators are ancestors of familiar local Native American tribes like the Cheyenne, Ute and Arapaho.

Artifacts like this often go overlooked, Gabriel says, because residential and commercial developers are not required to report the existence of archaeological objects.

But because the reservoir was federally approved, the Parker Water and Sanitation District was bound by stricter conditions for archaeological mitigation.

Aside from larger discoveries, like the mammoth skeleton found when Stonegate was being built in the late 1990s, many artifacts are “pulverized” by large construction machinery, said Gabriel, who called them a “fast-disappearing resource.”

“We’re losing a lot of our history and prehistory as a result,” she said.

The Oeškeso zoomorphic effigy is kept in a climate-controlled environment at the Douglas County History Repository in Castle Rock and wrapped in a cushioning acidfree material. The fact that it was “so clearly crafted by a person” makes it especially interesting to local historians, Gabriel said.

“Every time I’m out working on a survey and find something, I always wonder, ‘Who created this? Who last touched it? How did it end up here? How did they lose it?’” she said.

Gabriel has been informing the public about the discovery and urging them to vote at www.collectioncare.auraria.edu.

With funding for historic preservation drying up, there is a dire need to steer attention toward significant pieces of history.

“People don’t care about what they don’t know about,” Gabriel said.

VOICES

LOCAL

Trying a new angle can be eye-opener The other night I was out to dinner with a couple of clients in an Italian restaurant down in Castle Rock, a place called Rose’s Bella Cucina. If you have not had the chance to dine there, I highly recommend it. The food is fantastic and the owners, Steve and Donna, are awesome.

While we were walking out, we noticed an enlarged photograph of New York City, an aerial photo taken of the city from the south and looking north. Although some of the city looked the same, the view and the perspective made the city look very different from what it looks like today. This particular photograph was probably from the 1950s and obviously taken long before the Twin Towers were ever built, before the South Street Seaport was built up, and before the modern glass-framed architecture had replaced many of the older concrete-dominated structures. Having grown up in New Jersey just across the river, this photo gave me a completely different perspective.

How often are we all used to seeing or hearing the same thing? I mean, we get conditioned to certain sights, sounds, smells and just the norm of life, don’t we? We get so used to something, so set in our ways, so accustomed to things being just the way they are, we sometimes forget to try looking at things from a different angle or viewpoint.

Now here’s the deal: People make new decisions based on new information.

So how do we do that? How do we break the cycle of the status quo? How do we get out

of that same-old-sameold routine? Well, if we are going to see things differently, make new decisions based on new information, we must first acquire that new information, right? So the way to do that is to develop a sense of curiosity. Maybe you already are someone who Michael Norton asks a lot of questions WINNING and has a heightened sense of curiosity, and WORDS that’s terrific. However, if you are someone who would like to start seeing the world a little differently, get your head around the political landscape or the economy, deepen your relationships, or view your job in a new and different way, try enhancing or developing a stronger sense of curiosity.

Start including statements and questions like: “Tell me more about that.” “Can you share with me why you feel that way?” “What was the experience like?” “How did that happen?”

You get the idea, right? It’s the “who, what, why, where, when and how” questions instead of simple questions that only require a yes or no answer.

If you want a different perspective or view, try researching articles and blogs in the areas that interest you the most. I know, you can’t believe everything you see or read on the

Internet, but there are some very credible sources available to you to expand your views and ideas on particular subjects.

Read the newspaper, and not just the sections you always read; check out opinions and columns that may challenge your current thinking. Remember, people make new decisions based on new information. And we have access to more information today than at any other time in history.

If you were to look at New York City today, from the same angle that was used in the photo I saw hanging in Rose’s Bella Cucina, and compare them side by side, you would absolutely see the city in a whole new and different way.

What do you need to see in a whole new or different way in your own life? What would happen if you changed the angle or perspective, or became more curious and sought new information about something that was important to you personally or professionally?

I would bet you just might make some new decisions based on altered views, different perspectives and new information.

How about you, is there a view or perspective you would like to change? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and sometimes when we can get some new information and make new decisions, it really will be a better than good week.

Behind closed doors, the weather’s perfect I can’t think of anything good to say about Black Friday.

So. For a recluse there is no better time of the year than right now.

I am all winterized, and I am ready to go further into the interior, if that is possible.

What that means is that I lay low and paint more, write more, read more, think more, and take another inventory.

Some people go into a winter funk.

Not me.

Sure, people ski.

And get stuck on I-70.

Not me.

Colorado winters are perfect. Now and then we have a blizzard. But most of the time it’s clear, crisp, and sunny.

I thought I wanted to retire in California.

Now I am glad I didn’t.

California doesn’t let you winterize. Parts of it are exactly the same all year.

You are outdoors all the time.

For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro’ narrow chinks of his Craig Marshall Smith cavern.”

It starts to get dark at 5, and I begin to howl.

Not really. But that’s about the time my thoughts turn into something that is meaning-

ful to me.

What validates my life?

The answer is always the same. Being creative.

That and being a good father to a dachshund.

I have wondered what kind of real father I would be.

The answer is always the same. I would be too good.

I know for a fact that I would be preoccupied with Junior, and never get anything done.

Maybe not. Maybe I would learn how to measure my time.

I just don’t have to measure it at all right now, and I haven’t since I retired.

November 12, 2015

Family commitments deserve our support Colorado’s recovery from the worst recession since the Great Depression is as strong as any state’s in the nation, but for many middle-class families, decades of flat paychecks are leaving them with impossible decisions. Should they leave the workforce to stay home with an aging parent or pay tens of thousands of dollars to place them in around-the-clock care? Do they purchase a home or pay down a mountain of student debt? Will they spend hundreds of dollars a week on childcare or reject a new job opportunity?

This past August in Aurora we met with a number of parents to talk about the cost of child care. One mom described the difficult decision between paying for day care or paying her mortgage, and another parent was unable to work more hours because of the extra cost of care.

Coloradans feel the burden of these almost insurmountable costs more than families almost anywhere else in the country. Overall, Colorado is the sixth most expensive state for child care, and infant care ranks second when you factor in the percentage of the average salary it con-

sumes.

To provide some relief and help parents stay in the workforce, we’re co-sponsoring a bill to raise the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit. We want to make it easier to afford quality care by raising the U.S. Sen. credit from $3,000 to Michael Bennet $8,000 for one child and from $6,000 to GUEST $16,000 for two or COLUMN more kids.

Another pressure point Colorado families talk to us about consistently is the cost of higher education. Many parents and students are taking on thousands of dollars of debt. In the past 35 years, college tuition at public universities has risen significantly, with the average in-state public tuition in Colorado rising to nearly $9,500 annually.

We’ve introduced a number of measures

to help families save for school, decrease the cost of college and help graduates pay down their loans. They include streamlining the student loan process, restoring yearround Pell grants, promoting college savings programs, expanding college tax credits and allowing students to refinance loans.

Following our urging, students will soon be able to fill out the FAFSA earlier so they can find how much aid they will qualify for sooner, allowing parents to plan and save.

Unfortunately, some parents aren’t only paying for their kids’ college or their own student debt, but are also faced with caring for an aging or ailing parent of their own.

More than 584,000 Coloradans are caring for aging or disabled loved ones, providing $7.4 billion in unpaid care each year. In 2012, the average cost in Colorado of placing someone in full-time care was more than $200 a day.

In July, we met with caregivers in Fort Collins who shared their stories. One woman was caring for both an aging parent and a disabled brother, another was taking care of a husband with Alzheimer’s after previously caring for a husband who died

of cancer, and one woman was caring for her mother with Alzheimer’s and was being tested herself for early onset of the disease.

Last year, we teamed up with Republican Sen. Kelly Ayotte to establish the Assisting Caregivers Today Caucus to give caregivers a stronger voice in Washington and provide new opportunities for education and advocacy. We’ve also been working to pass the RAISE Act, which would require the Department of Health and Human Services to develop a national strategy to support the country’s 40 million family caregivers.

Whether it’s battling student debt, caring for a loved one or sending your kid to day care, these challenges are replicated across the country. One thing we didn’t hear in our meetings was anyone saying they wanted to work less or get something for free. Everyone we talked to was willing to make a commitment to move their families forward, and Congress needs to find ways to support that commitment instead of sending families backward.

Democrat Michael Bennet has represented Colorado in the U.S. Senate since 2009.

Actions aim for future water security Is our water future secure?

It’s a question on the minds of many in Castle Rock and the entire south metro Denver region — and for good reason. After all, water is what makes our outstanding quality of life possible. If we want future generations to enjoy our communities as we do, we must ensure they have access to a secure and sustainable water supply that meets their future needs.

From conversations throughout the region, we know Castle Rock residents and those in the entire south metro area understand the critical role water plays in delivering the quality of life we desire for our children, in addition to supporting property values, job creation and economic growth.

We know residents are aware the region historically has relied too heavily on declining groundwater supplies and must diversify its supply for long-term sustainability. We know they view water as a top priority for the region and support an all-of-the-above approach that includes conservation and reuse, storage and new renewable supplies.

We also know Castle Rock residents as well as residents across the south metro area value partnership among leaders throughout the region to get the job done in the most economically responsible manner.

Working together to secure water rights, build infrastructure and efficiently use storage space helps spread the costs and the benefits to customers throughout the region.

The answer to the question on people’s minds is not clear-cut. While our region is on the path to delivering a secure water future for generations to come, this effort is ongoing and will require continued support from our communities to see it through to the end.

The good news is that we have a plan, and we are executing that plan.

Thanks to innovative conservation ap-

proaches, the region has seen a 30 percent decrease in per capita water use since 2000.

GUEST That means the typical COLUMN south metro household or business, including those in Caste Rock, is using 30 percent less water than just 15 years ago. Declines in the region’s underground aquifers — historically the main water source for the region — have slowed considerably in that same time period, a testament to efforts across the region to diversify water supplies and maximize efficiency through reuse.

At the same time, major new water infrastructure projects are coming online throughout the region that bring new renewable supplies, storage capacity and reuse capabilities. These include the WISE (Water Infrastructure and Supply Efficiency) Partnership with Denver Water, Aurora and several other regional organizations including Castle Rock Water, the Chatfield Reallocation Project, Rueter-Hess Reservoir, the Northern Project and Castle Rock’s Plum Creek Purification Facility, to name a few.

The 13 members that make up the South Metro Water Supply Authority provide water to 80 percent of Douglas County and 10 percent of Arapahoe County. Together, they are partnering among each other as well as with local government leadership and water entities across the region and state to execute their plan to secure a sustainable water future for the region.

Since becoming a member of the South Metro Water Supply Authority, Castle Rock Water has helped lead implementation of the WISE project, new water storage reservoir projects and other regional renewable water supply efforts. WISE water will be available to Castle Rock residents by 2017 and even earlier for some of the other South Metro residents. A project like WISE

represents as much as 10 percent of the renewable water needed for both current and future residents in Castle Rock.

The members of the South Metro Supply Authority, including Castle Rock, each have long-term water plans. Through partnerships, these projects are made possible by sharing in the needed investments and other resources when completing the timeconsuming task of acquiring additional renewable water and building the required infrastructure.

This collaboration is supported by the state and is in line with the Colorado Water Plan. This regional support has been critical

in providing feasible strategies to ensure water for future generations.

Is our water future secure? No, not yet.

But we’re well on our way to getting there.

Paul Donahue is the mayor of Castle Rock and has served on the town council for eight years.

Eric Hecox is the director of the South Metro Water Supply Authority, a regional water authority made up of 13 water provider members that collectively serve more than 300,000 residents as well as businesses in the south metro Denver area. South Metro Water’s membership spans much of Douglas County and parts of Arapahoe County, including Castle Rock, Highlands Ranch, Parker and Castle Pines.

Other Promenade tenants expected to open their doors by the end of the year include: Cafe Rio, Mad Greens, Mod Pizza, Smashburger, Jersey Mike’s Subs, AT&T, Bar Nails & Spa, Elements Massage, The Joint and Waxing the City.

Additional tenants will open by the third quarter of next year in Block 1, near the new interchange under construction at Interstate 25 north of the existing Meadows/

Founders Interchange. The tenants include: Sports Authority, TJ Maxx/Homegoods, Ulta and Berry Blendz.

“Our lineup of tenants will bring new dining options and services to residents of the area, as well as convenient access to large-format retailers,” said Don Provost, principal of Alberta Development Partners.

Because it’s important for residents to be able to access Promenade at Castle Rock, Alberta Development Partners is timing the opening of many retailers with another significant project. The town’s North Meadows Extension project is opening in summer 2016 to provide another connection to U.S. Highway 85 and I-25 for residents and businesses on the west side of town. The

new roadway project is a partnership with the town, Douglas County and the Colorado Department of Transportation.

“Castle Rock is a great place to live,” said Mayor Paul Donahue. “We know our residents want more services closer to home, and we’re thankful Alberta is making this investment in our community.”

The project comes at a time when the Town of Castle Rock is growing rapidly. The town is on track to exceed issuing permits for more than 800 single-family homes this year.

“With the population of Castle Rock continuing to grow, there couldn’t be a better time to open Promenade at Castle Rock,” Provost said.

lost his seat, said he is proud of the work he and his colleagues have accomplished and believes their polices are still best for the district — including the controversial pay-for-performance evaluations for teachers and staff.

“I’m proud that we have actually challenged education and set the model,” Larsen said. “You can compensate and evaluate and differentiate based on performance. Everything else in the economy

does this. I’m sorry, no matter what your function is, you have to find ways to encourage and attract and reward the top talent.”

The final meeting for the current board is Nov. 17. New members will be sworn in no later than Nov. 30.

Several community groups have criticized the district’s policies for years and are celebrating the election outcome.

“For several years, Strong Schools Coali-

tion has advocated for greater transparency and accountability in Douglas County School District,” said Laura Mutton, the group’s president. “I am hopeful that the results of this election are a step toward achieving this goal. We still have a long way to go, but by working collaboratively with our parents, teachers, students and community members, I believe we can move this district forward in a positive direction.”

The Henwood children hand out plates of food during a trip to Haiti. Courtesy photos

November 12, 2015

FA I T H HEALTH CULTURE FA M I L Y FOOD

The Riley kids help build a shed at Drifter’s Hearts of Hope, a nonprofit horse rescue.

Sue and Joe Hanson, of Littleton, make the rounds in their patrol cruise at Trick-or-Treat Street at Aspen Grove shopping center Oct. 31.

Impacts broaden with family volunteers Donating time with spouse, kids promotes giving spirit

By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com For Whitney and Justin Henwood and their six children, volunteering became a family affair when they relocated from Parker to Haiti to help a community recover from a devastating earthquake.

A Castle Rock family discovered that working for an organization that helps neglected horses and special needs youth not only fosters a good work ethic, it also teaches gratitude and thoughtfulness.

And a retired couple in Littleton decided to give back by helping their local police department with the little things like crowd control and reporting graffiti.

They are part of a growing trend of volunteerism that brings a family’s collective might to extend a friendly hand — whether it’s helping out in a kitchen to feed the homeless on Thanksgiving, organizing a neighborhood cleanup campaign or seeking an international destination where relief is needed.

GenerationOn, a national volunteer organization that provides family project ideas and guides, is encouraging parents to sign up for family volunteer day Nov. 21.

Moms and dad who work alongside their children can share observations and later talk about their experience.

“Volunteering together enhances values such as kindness, compassion and tolerance, plus family members learn new skills and feel appreciated for their contributions and talents,” the group’s website says.

Desire to help leads to Haiti Whitney and Justin Henwood, of Parker, traveled to Haiti in 2011 before returning the following year with their six children.

The second excursion wasn’t a short-lived mission: the family put down temporary roots, becoming a part of a community outside of Port-au-Prince for seven months and helping out in any way they could.

“We thought it would be a good experience for not only the people of Haiti, but also for our children to see what the world is like,” said Whitney Henwood, a registered nurse who worked alongside her children at clinics in the poor village.

Justin Henwood took a leave of absence

TIPS FOR FAMILY VOLUNTEERING • Choose an activity together. Discussing possible volunteer opportunities can be a great way to help kids think about what matters to them and can help you learn about each other as a family in new ways.

• Consider letting kids bring their friends.

This may make the service experience more fun and could also inspire more families to get involved in volunteering.

• Look for opportunities that can accommodate skills, interests and maturity of all family members, especially the younger children.

• Plan your own event. Talk with your local park district or nonprofit and arrange your own project.

• Start your own family tradition. It may be ringing bells to raise money during the winter or assisting with a Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service project every January, but you can start a tradition of service that will create life-long memories.

from his job as a geotechnical engineer to shore up walls in homes, many of which are constructed in a way that can jeopardize the safety of those inside.

Structures were damaged during a massive earthquake that struck the impoverished nation in 2010 and have not been repaired.

The kids, then ranging in age from 2 to 10, assisted when they could, but most of the time they were befriending the Haitian children. Whitney Henwood snapped a photo of her then-2-year-old son sitting among orphaned children during a feeding program funded year-round by money raised through the Henwood’s nonprofit, Believe in Haiti.

The Henwoods wanted to use their skill set to make a difference, as well as provide a good example for their kids. Whitney Henwood remembers during the 2012 trip that her 8-year-old daughter was eager to help in the clinic, which provides basic screenings, education and assistance to new mothers, some of whom walked miles to receive care.

“While I was doing exams on women, she was holding the newborn babies,” she said. “That was really neat to see.”

Teaching kids a life lesson At a more local level, Castle Rock

• Invite the whole family. Use your volunteer activities as an opportunity to spend time with family members you don’t see every day. Strengthen your entire family by including grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.

•Volunteer as part of a family vacation.

Serving together can be a great way to have lots of fun, explore a new place together and make a difference at the same time.

•Teach life lessons. By volunteering as a family, you have a chance to expand the perspectives of your children and expose them first-hand to new issues. Talking them through their activities can help them reflect on their experience and grow in their understanding.

• Encourage life-long volunteering. When families volunteer, children are more likely to develop the habit of giving to their communities, and are more likely to volunteer on their own in the future.

residents Tiffany and Rob Riley and their four children — Abby, 15, Lance, 13, Sydnie, 9, and Tessa, 4 — are pitching in at Drifter’s Hearts of Hope, a horse rescue near the Douglas-Elbert county line. After adopting one of the horses for Abby, the family decided Drifter’s Hearts would be the perfect venue to volunteer.

“We saw the amazing work they’re doing out there and we decided that it would be a good cause,” Tiffany Riley said.

A Facebook post informed the family the nonprofit organization needed a shed to store tools and other goods to care for the horses. The family had considered helping with Special Olympics, but schedules did not align. However, because Drifter’s Hearts works with special needs clients, two of the Riley kids will likely continue volunteering.

“The kids are definitely developing a good work habit and learning that it’s important to help others and be mindful of others’ needs,” Tiffany Riley said. “They’re learning to be grateful for what they have as well.”

The littlest ones love feeling they are a part of something important, even if they are simply cleaning up sawdust or handing their parents a two-by-four for the shed.

Community safety is pair’s focus Joe and Sue Henson, of Littleton, also feel proud to be a cog in the larger, well-oiled machine of the Littleton Police Department. They are members of the Community Safety Volunteer Program, and with funding from a justice assistance grant, they drive a marked vehicle to keep an extra eye on the community.

They help with crowd control at large events like Western Welcome Week and Trick or Treat Street, assist at accident scenes, report new graffiti for cleanup, and created the Friends of Littleton K9s citizen support group for the police department’s K9 unit.

“We both retired early, so I figured what the heck,” said Joe Henson, a member of the department’s alumni association.

A citizen police academy, which allows the public a behind-the-scenes glimpse at law enforcement, convinced the Hensons that donating their extra time was the right thing to do. They had always wanted to help out, but never had the time because of Joe Henson’s extensive work travel.

Now, the civilian volunteers work as partners outside of their 46-year marriage.

Their duties are specified, much as they are at home, Joe Henson pointed out.

When they’re on patrol, he is the contact person and she is the cover, and they cruise through areas known for vehicle break-ins and check on homes when owners are on vacation. Since Sue Henson also serves on a handful of boards and helps vet new officer candidates, she is in the know.

“I’ve done patrols with other guys, but obviously I feel much more comfortable going out with Sue,” Joe Henson said. “She knows more officers than I do, and she gives me a lot of good insight with what’s going on out there with the guys on the street.”

Family volunteerism rewarding Just as the Hensons’ work frees up on-duty officers to concentrate on other, more pressing tasks, the same goes for other nonprofit organizations that reap the rewards of family volunteers. They not only help a good cause, but also create a sense of solidarity and purpose.

The effects are obvious and life-changing, Whitney Henwood said.

“Our kids’ lives have for sure been changed by our experiences” in Haiti, she said. “They’ve become more compassionate and have less desire for material things.”

Morrison’s masterpiece carries you away The music industry does a pretty healthy business with reissues, particularly around the holidays.

The releases are almost always fascinating. Yet it’s almost always frustrating for fans.

Reworking albums that have been out for decades with alternative takes, live versions and unheard songs is a kind of dirty trick on the industry’s part — since it means listeners have to rebuy something they already own.

But it’s the kind of treat serious audiophiles like myself just can’t resist.

This season has some great reissues — The Velvet Underground, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and Fleetwood Mac all have mammoth, comprehensive releases out or on the way.

But the one I’m most excited about is probably the simplest — the remastered and expanded version of Van Morrison’s seminal “Astral Weeks.”

I should state up front “Astral Weeks” is my absolute favorite album of all time, so even just a remastered version would be a complete treat. But the reissue features two alternate takes and two extended versions of tracks that show how a genius develops a masterwork.

For people who know Morrison from his biggest single, “Brown Eyed Girl,” “Astral Weeks” might be a bit disorienting at first. It was when it was released, as well.

Morrison wrote and recorded the al-

bum in 1968, fresh off the success of “Brown Eyed Girl,” but instead of staying in that upbeat, R&B-driven rock lane, the Irish artist dove into Celtic folk and free jazz.

What first struck me about the album is that very Clarke Reader unexpected quality.

LINER The freedom and sense of exploration NOTES in the album never ceases to inspire me to try something new — to go for a new sound, a new way to express myself. There are so many ways to create beauty, and sometimes that requires going in a new direction.

The album’s mystical beauty is a result of how Morrison and producer Lewis Merenstein use a jazz quintet, led by bassist Richard Davis, to flesh out Morrison’s acoustic guitar work. According to the musicians, Morrison would simply play what he had written, then tell them to play what they felt.

No charts, nothing written or explained — just the emotion of the music.

As a creative person, it’s hard not to aspire to a similar feat — making something that is capable of just carry-

ing people away. There’s a fearlessness required to do something like that, but the rewards are so worth it.

And that’s how you can open an album with a song like “Astral Weeks,” which is a serious contender for my favorite album opener ever. The lyrics let the listener know immediately what kind of ride they’re in for: “If I ventured in the slipstream/Between the viaducts of your dream.”

From there, it is 40 minutes of the most shimmeringly gorgeous music you’ll ever hear, from the classical lilts of “Cypress Avenue” to the transcendental character study of “Madame George.”

And in a canon that features love songs like “Into the Mystic” and “Someone Like You,” Morrison delivers one of his best romantic odes in “Sweet Thing.”

There is something so open and personal about all this music, and every time I hear it, it’s like a challenge to go that deep into myself and find what I really want to say.

“Astral Weeks” is never not inspiring, and whenever I need any artistic motivation, this is my go-to music. It’s perfect music for exploration — of the world, of beauty, of self. Can’t ask for more from any art.

Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week. A community editor with Colorado

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK Selection: Beach Slang’s “The Things We Do To Find People Who Feel Like Us,”released on Polyvinyl Records.

Review: You won’t find more love songs in one place on any album this year, and they’re all dedicated to the healing power of rock music. The album flies by at just 27 minutes, and that’s perfect for the make-or-break emotions, the pounding guitars, the sing-along choruses.

Favorite song: “Noisy Heaven” Most romantic lyric: “The punks are wired And these records feel tough It’s loud and wild But I swear it feels soft”

Southwest Plaza getting in gear for holiday rush Southwest Plaza, the 1.3 millionsquare-foot shopping center in Littleton, is adding the finishing touches to a multimillion-dollar redevelopment that began in April 2014. Many retailers will open throughout the holiday season, adding more variety to holiday shopping.

Designed to reflect the modern Colorado lifestyle, Southwest Plaza’s renovations and enhancements include the addition of skylights, open air cafes, seating areas, a roaring fireplace and Wi-Fi throughout the property. In keeping with the mall’s commitment to provide a Colorado experience and to complement the national retailer and restaurant collection, the center is adding regional and local shops, including the second location of downtown’s popular I Heart Denver store and Inspyre Boutique.

The mall’s four department stores, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Macy’s and Sears, have remained in place during the remodel.

“The holiday season is the perfect time to visit Southwest Plaza and experience the new renovations, along with the introduction of our Holiday Market and Adventure to Santa,” said Greg Sims, senior general manager for Southwest Plaza.

“The completely renovated Southwest Plaza mall is truly a Colorado lifestyle center, featuring many of the best retailers from throughout the country, and our own backyard.”

Stanley Marketplace hosts exhibit Stanley Marketplace, the public market

slated to open next year on the border of Stapleton and Aurora, will play host to a monthlong Black Cube Nomadic Museum pop-up exhibition with artist fellow Derrick Velasquez through Dec. 12.

Black Cube is a Penny Parker nonprofit, experimental art museum MILE HIGH that nurtures the LIFE self-sufficiency of artists, and inspires people to discover and appreciate contemporary art beyond traditional museum and gallery walls.

Black Cube has no permanent exhibition space or collection, and instead partners with artist fellows to commission pop-up art experiences; by constantly changing locations, Black Cube’s projects aspire to reach new audiences not regularly exposed to contemporary art.

“We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Stanley on this exhibition, especially at this rare moment during its build-out,” said Cortney Stell, executive director and chief curator of Black Cube.

Velasquez was born and raised in Lodi, Calif., and resides in Denver. He received his Master of Fine Arts degree in sculpture from Ohio State University, and holds dual undergraduate degrees in art his-

tory and studio arts from the University of California, Santa Barbara. Velasquez teaches in the Fine Arts department at Metropolitan State University of Denver and the University of Denver.

Tocabe updates its menu Tocabe fans now have even more to savor with new menu items. Tocabe is introducing three new dishes: The Posu Bowl, Grilled Bannock and the Bad Hunter Salad.

“This is the first time we’ve added new selections to our menu since we opened Tocabe,” says Tocabe co-owner Matt Chandra. “We thought it was important to add some additional diverse options that appeal to all tastes and dietary needs.”

The Posu Bowl is Tocabe’s newest vegan offering and will be offered at both the north Denver and Greenwood Village locations.

Available only at Tocabe’s Greenwood Village location, 8181 E. Arapahoe Road, the Grilled Bannock features traditional bread grilled fresh to order, served alongside all of Tocabe’s toppings. Patrons can choose their meat (ground beef, grilled chicken, ground bison or shredded bison) and toppings made to order.

Both locations, in Denver at 3536 W. 44th Ave and Greenwood Village, are open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from noon to 8 p.m. Sunday.

Reunion Gastro opens Reunion Gastro Pub + Wine Bar is now open on the corner of 15th and Arapahoe in downtown Denver. The Colorado-inspired gastro pub specializes in charcuterie, offers lunch specials during the week, and all menu items are $15 or under.

“We want our guests to enjoy delicious, chef-driven food without pretense or attitude,” said Martin Hammer, general manager at Reunion. ”The menu we have created, the food we serve, and the vibe in the restaurant certainly lends itself to accomplish this.”

Reunion Gastro Pub + Wine Bar is located at 1480 Arapahoe St. For more information, visit www.reuniongastropub. com or call 303-844-5280.

Norine Dworkin-McDaniel and Jessica Ziegler (Highlands Ranch) have published “Science of Parenthood,” which sees humor in food-fussing and other customs of the short people in our lives. Courtesy photo

“Science of Parenthood” is a humorous look at parenting, interpreted with spoofs of scientist’s graphs, descriptions and illustrations. Courtesy image

Parenting leads to laughs in new book Writer, illustrator join forces; humorous item is great gift

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com A new book’s publishing date is Nov. 17 and the whole title is: “Science of Parenthood: Thoroughly Unscientific Explanations for Utterly Baffling Parenting Situations,” which may impart a bit of the flavor.

Where else will you find a pie chart for “Where your kid’s food goes?” (Down front of shirt, wadded in napkin, submerged in glass of milk, in dog’s mouth, in pants pocket, smuggled to bathroom in mouth, then into toilet, etc.)

Divided into sections labeled Biology,

Chemistry, Physics and Math, the writer and illustrator who created the book address food, communications, other parents, schools, birthday parties, getting a toddler dressed and out the door and much more.

(Funny for grandmas, too.)

It started as a parenting blog by Norine Dworkin McDaniel, who had been a freelance magazine writer until magazines all downsized, according to illustrator Jessica Ziegler, who has lived in Highlands Ranch for eight years.

The two met in Las Vegas when they both lived there — but didn’t want to raise kids there. Ziegler, whose dad is a New Yorker cartoonist, offered to illustrate the blogs with cartoons. A perfect match was made.

Norine now lives in Florida and, together, they have developed not only books, but an entrepreneurial approach to selling them.

Publishing has changed a great deal in the past 10 years, and this colorful new book was published by She Prints, which Ziegler calls a “hybrid” publisher. They don’t do the exhaustive editing that the big publishers like Harper do, although they do proofread.

They don’t design a cover — Ziegler did that and illustrated the book with drawings, scientific-looking charts and graphs and a fine sense of humor. But they help with distribution, getting books into Ingram, the major wholesaler for bookstores across the nation.

The creative pair of McDaniel and Ziegler have self-published (via Amazon) and sold two books of cartoon-illustrated tweets from parents, related to the blog — and contemplate another of those. This new book will go on the humor shelf at a bookstore, but also fits well in a gift shop or baby goods empo-

rium. Any young parent will relate to it — it’s a great gift item.

The main means of generating sales initially for this pair is a series of house parties held by personal friends across the country — “from Orlando to Burbank,” Ziegler said (20 locations planned at this point). The trip started in Cincinnati Nov. 5, where a big-time sponsor gave them a kick-off party and supplies of Boogie nose wipes to go in goodie bags with other items for those who attend the parties. They’ll drive some and fly some because it’s winter — to both coasts and lots of states in between. Their itinerary runs through March.

In the Denver area, they will hold a launch party on Nov. 20 at Chinook Tavern, 6380 Fiddler’s Green Circle, Greenwood Village, which is open to the public, Ziegler said. She hopes the community will attend.

‘Equus’ hits Denver stage in compelling production Avenue Theater offers play with strong performances

IF YOU GO

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com “Passion, love, sexual awakening, religion and the darkness of the human psyche” enter into critics’ discussions of Peter Shaffer’s Tony Award-winning play “Equus.” It plays at The Avenue Theater in Denver through Nov. 21 in a strongly directed production that draws top performances from its leads — Spencer Althoff as the disturbed young man and Paul Borillo as the psychiatrist who tries to help him — and who is also troubled. Warren Sherrill is director.

“Equus” plays through Nov. 21 at the Avenue Theater, 417 E. 17th Ave., Denver. Performances: 7:30 p.m.

Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and 6:30 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 15. Tickets cost $26.50 and $12 on Nov. 15; avenuetheater.com, 303-321-5925. Paid parking is available on the block.

Staging in the small space is especially well-thought-out in the set by Michael Duran, which is the exterior of a stable, transformed to the hospital or parents’ home or stable interior by Jen Orff’s lighting. Sound is by Brian Freeland and costumes by Brenda King.

The three horses, played by humans, play a major part. They wear large wire horse-head sculptures, created by Bozeman, Montana, sculptor Jim Dolan, and ingenious hooves that really conveyed that clop-clop sound. Their body language is thought out as well by someone who has spent time with the animals.

Althoff, a senior acting student at University of Northern Colorado, plays the intense, mentally ill Alan Strang with great skill as he interacts with adults in his life and with his beloved — worshipped, really — horses. We will hope to watch his career develop.

Borillo, a veteran Denver area actor, is convincing as Dr. Dysart, psychiatrist at the institution where Alan is brought after blinding six horses in one night. Others in the community think he should be

in prison and a story, first introduced in 1973, develops that places more blame on the parents than one might find today. But it makes compelling theater as Dysart tries to unravel what happened.

Other cast members: Alan’s controlling parents, the religious, anxious Dora and gruff, atheistic Frank, are played by Margie Lamb and Clint Heyn. Also involved and concerned about Alan’s welfare is court representative Hester, played by Amalie Millhone. Victoria Copeland, also a UNC student, plays young Jill. Peter Marullo, John Tyler and Daniel Wheeler play the convincing horses.

This is serious theater for the Avenue to tackle and it’s rewarding to see such a strong production as John Ashton returns to take over the direction of the 30-yearold, award-winning, 96-seat venue.

Pack burro racing is metaphor for life Highlands Ranch family promotes Colorado’s summer heritage sport

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com Amber Wann was an up-and-coming pack burro racer until an accident in 2013 left her with back surgery and three months of bed rest. During that time, her son, Benjamin, started showing signs of his epilepsy. He was having seizures once a month.

“I was battling a lot of things at the same time,” Amber said. “I wondered if there would ever be a happy day.”

For Amber, pack burro racing isn’t just a sport — it’s an interpretation of life. When you race with a donkey,

you hit challenges and you want to give up, she said. But you have to make it to the finish line.

Amber and her husband, Brad, have four children and live near Cheese Ranch in Highlands Ranch. They’ve been involved in the sport for about seven years.

Pack burro racing is similar to a cross-country footrace, except burros (Spanish for donkeys) lead the way.

Every runner has a leash attached to an animal and the two run as a team. The sport’s season is from late May through September with races in mountain towns, such as Fairplay and Leadville.

Mining towns are where the sport began. In the 1940s, Fairplay and Leadville still used burros to carry supplies and lead miners through rocky terrain.

And in 1948, Fairplay started an annual, weekendlong festival called Burro Days dedicated to burros and pack burro racing. It’s the biggest event in Park County and generates significant tax revenue, said Julie Bullock, special events and business development coordinator for Fairplay.

“All of the hotels are booked,” she said. “All of the businesses in town see benefits from Burro Days.”

As the sport continued to grow, Brad worked with state Rep. Millie Hamner (D-Dillon) on a resolution to recognize the sport statewide. In May 2012, the Colorado General Assembly approved the resolution and declared pack burro racing the summer heritage sport in Colorado.

Today, the sport has nearly 60 racers, including the

Wann family.

Amber prefers running with a donkey to running alone. It’s a distraction factor and takes the focus off the aches and pains.

“You really bond with the animal and the connection is so fulfilling,” she said. “You don’t have to be a winner.

You just have to finish.”

She is slowly making her way back into the sport.

In 2013, she was working as a flight attendant with a local airline when turbulence threw her to the floor. She had to have back disc surgery and could barely lift a milk cartoon for the following three months. Her lack of ability and control put her in a depressive state, she said.

On top of it all, Benjamin, her youngest son, began having seizures. She believes it was from the stress in their home.

But Amber has found that pack burro racing helped, by strengthening the body and easing the mind.

“I quickly realized,” she said, “that being out in the fresh air and running with the animal while being at the mercy of the animal is a good balance of control.”

It also teaches patience because the runner and the donkey have to be on the same page: You can’t make a burro do anything, Brad said.

The Wann family plans to continue to promote the state sport in everything they do.

“Pack burro racing’s like life,” Amber said. “Sometimes you’re going to fall down. But you have to get back up and make it to the finish line.”

A SPECTRUM RETIREMENT COMMUNITY

HONOR, SERVICE, SACRIFICE

Returning troops have places to turn Readjusting to civilian life difficult for some veterans

By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Chad Ritter knows the difficulty of returning home.

The U.S. Marine Corps veteran served during the push into Iraq in 2003. After sustaining wounds — including a traumatic brain injury — in three separate attacks, Ritter was sent home with little idea of what was to come. The 34-year-old Franktown resident now has a host of physical ailments and post-traumatic stress disorder, which limit job opportunities and participation in social settings.

Going from a combat zone, where life-and-death decisions are made daily, back to civilian life was an exasperating transition, one fraught with questions that seemingly had no answer.

“When you try to reconnect with society, you’ve got to think every day that people don’t do those same things,” Ritter said. “They don’t experience it.”

According to a study by the Center for Chronic Disease Outcomes Research, between 25 percent and 56 percent of combat veterans using U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs services reported “some” to “extreme” difficulty in social functioning, productivity and community involvement.

The 2010 study focused on the prevalence and types of reintegration problems among Iraq and Afghanistan combat veterans while identifying levels of interest in interventions to promote readjustment to community life. The research also explored associations between probable PTSD and reintegration problems.

Ritter continues to seek ways to make sense of it all through VA counseling and has made strides in recent months with Warrior Voices, a nonprofit that teaches returning troops voiceover skills. The goal is to provide them with talents and job opportunities suited for those with PTSD and other lasting conditions.

Programs come in wide range There are a number of organizations willing to help; it’s a matter of finding the right fit, as returning veterans have varying degrees of issues and methods of coping. The Douglas County Office of Veterans Affairs helps those seeking mental and physical care to connect with the right people.

David Maxwell, veterans service officer, says there are adjustments needed in multiple facets of everyday life. The surroundings and daily activities separating civilian and military life are stark: work responsibilities, living situations, different “lingo,” proximity to home, and even kinship.

“You lose that camaraderie. They’re your buddies and family, everybody around you,” Maxwell said. “The military emphasizes teamwork, and when you leave that all of a sudden, it’s just you. Coworkers are not the same.”

Ritter knows the feeling and has created a motorcycle club for veterans that gives him that missed sense of “brotherhood” from his deployment.

It’s Maxwell’s job to find those groups that help returning veterans rediscover that military connection.

Michael Corona, a petty officer in the U.S. Navy who served three tours in Vietnam, visits the Vietnam War Memorial in Washington, D.C., in 2013. It was his first visit. He approached the wall quietly and placed both palms on the cold stone.

Tears in his eyes, he whispered silent prayers, then slowly stepped back, straightened his back, raised his hand to his brow and gave a salute. He slowly walked the length of the wall, running his fingertips over the etched names, only withdrawing his touch at the end. Turn to the third page of this section for more on his service.

U.S. Navy

Sam Baldridge of Castle Rock served in the Air Force from 1953-57 as a bomb navigation radar technician and engineer. He has volunteered for the past nine years in the Veterans Affairs office of Douglas County helping other veterans obtain benefits and assistance.

Castle Rock resident and Vietnam veteran Bob Rotruck served in the U.S. Navy for 20 years. When he retired July 31, 1979, he held the rank of chief warrant officer. Rotruck worked in aviation electronics and was deployed to Vietnam abroad the USS Kitty Hawk in 1968-69.

After retiring from the military to help his wife, Barbara, raise their two sons, Rotruck worked as a contractor for the Department of Defense. Now retired, he moved to Castle Rock 10 years ago. He spends most of his time volunteering with the Douglas/Elbert Task Force, New Hope Presbyterian Church and Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve. He was also on the initial board of directors for the Douglas County Veteran Monument. The Rotrucks have two sons, Joe, who lives in Parker and is a software engineer, and John, who is a captain in the U.S. Navy.

What about your service makes you most proud?

Working with some of the finest young men and women in the world. I’m very privileged to work with, work for and have worked for some wonderful, wonderful people while serving my country. It’s a kinship that you develop and a spiritual relationship you develop that can’t be broken. I had a great career. I loved it. Had we not had children, I would have stayed for 30 years.

What motivated you to join the military?

My brother. He’s the one that made the suggestion. I really hadn’t considered it. I graduated from Gaithersburg High School in Maryland in 1959 and was all prepared to go to the University of West Virginia pharmacy school. My brother said, “Are you sure you want to be a pharmacist?” I wasn’t sure. He suggested I join the military and they can help pay.

I tested with the Air Force and scored extremely high. But there was something about the Navy that enchanted me more.

I enlisted in the Navy July 29, 1959. I had no intention of staying 20 years.

What were some of the biggest challenges you encountered?

I guess the toughest tour was while I was attached to the USS John F. Kennedy. I spent nine months in the Norfolk Naval Shipyard for an overhaul. Even though I was at home, I aged 10 years in that time because of the shipyard workers. All weekend the ship would be in great shape. We cleaned on Fridays, but by noon Monday, the ship would be a mess because of them. One of the most exciting things I did was I walked under the ship while it was in dry dock. It weighed 82,000 tons. That was an impressive sight.

— Shanna Fortier

What motivated you to join the military?

Actually, I failed in college and I went into the Air Force to get some technical schooling and make something of myself.

I thought it would straighten my life out — and it did.

some time in Reykjavik, Iceland. I got to see the world a little bit.

What about your service makes you most proud?

It was a great experience. I was a bomb navigation radar technician, bomb squadron armament technician and I worked in engineering electronics, where I repaired radar equipment for the B-47 aircraft. I worked hard and I progressed well ... The whole experience was satisfying and enjoyable to me. I got to see merry old England for 90 days. I spent

What were some of the biggest challenges you encountered?

I didn’t miss home. Not at all. I enjoyed what I was doing. I enjoyed the people I was working with. They were a second family. Now, my greatest pleasure is to help the VA and other veterans to receive the benefits they are entitled to and eligible for, specifically disability and health care benefits.

Patricia Ehline U.S. Army Nurse Corps Castle Rock resident Patricia Ehline, originally from Omaha, Nebraska, enlisted in the Army Nurse Corps in 1966 as a private first class. She became a registered nurse the following year and was activated into the U.S. Army Nurse Corps and stationed at Fort Irwin, California.

Four months later, Ehline was the first nurse to receive orders to go to Vietnam.

She arrived in Vietnam in May 1968, the third year of the war. She was 21 years old.

In 1970, she left the military with the rank of first lieutenant.

“I wanted to remain in the reserves, but at that time, women were not allowed to have children and be connected to the military in any way,” she said. “So I went back to civilian nursing for the remainder of my career.”

Ehline received the National Defense Service Medal, the Vietnam Service Medal and the Republic of Vietnam Campaign Medal with 60 Device.

Echlin, also a wife, mother and grandmother, worked as a nurse for 43 years and continues her nursing services to veterans and their families through volunteer work.

“I am a survivor of the effects of trauma resulting in PTSD,” Ehline said. “I have learned and apply the techniques I have learned to live a rich and full life.”

What motivated you to join the military?

The promises made by the recruiters — travel, salary to help me pay for my education and, perhaps, because I always had a very patriotic spirit. My childhood had been filled with WWII movies where the U.S. always won for the right reasons. My birth father had served in WWII and Korea ... I think I followed in his footsteps ...

Todd DeVoe What about your service makes you the most proud?

I have lived in war and I appreciate the freedoms we do have and I honor those who have sacrificed so much to defend injustices to humans across the world. I am also very proud of all the humanitarian work the military does perform ... I feel that I did my best to save lives, show compassion, help some die with dignity and provide excellent nursing care to those I was charged to work with in all situations.

What were some of the biggest challenges you encountered?

The attitude of civilians during the ’60s and ’70s toward those who served in the military. The rules and regulations limiting, especially women, while I was in the military. Any discounting of issues very private and critical to military women. The expectation to give all, but yet accept less than all of support in dealing with issues as a result of military service . . . The need to suppress any fear of life-threatening situations, both through violence of war, misconduct and exposure to disease and chemicals that were and are extremely life threatening.

— Shanna Fortier

U.S. Navy Todd Devoe is 55 years old and lives in Larkspur. He served in the Navy from 1981-2006 as an explosives disposal technician and diver. He served in the first Gulf War. He has a wife and three daughters and is now retired from military service. DeVoe heads up his own consulting firm focused on learning and development.

What motivated you to join the military?

I wanted to see the world. There’s a lot out there. I went to high school in southern Michigan in the late ’70s. It was impossible to get a job in Michigan, so I went to Houston for a while, and while I was there I decided to join the Navy.

Indonesia, Guam just some of the beautiful diving in the world. I felt like I made a difference, you know? I did some things that I felt like made a real difference, saving lives and things of that nature.

What about your service makes you most proud?

I was an explosives disposal technician, part of the diving Navy. So, I got to dive in some really cool places. I went to Desert Storm where we dove the minefields of the northern Arabian Gulf. That was pretty exciting at times. Malaysia,

What were some of the biggest challenges you encountered?

I had a wife and three little girls. Out of a 25-year career, I spent 18 years of it gone. So that was pretty tough. It was tough on me, but it was even tougher on the family.

Veterans Continued from Page 19

Job-seeking help offered Aside from nonprofits like Warrior Voices, job placement organizations often have specialists that point veterans in the right direction. Arapahoe/Douglas Works!, a workforce center run by the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment, provides free services to job seekers and businesses. It hosts employment events geared toward veterans and offers one-on-one assistance that delves into the skill sets of service members in hopes of finding the perfect job for them.

Taking into account uncontrolled responses that are not conducive to certain environments is similarly important, Ritter says.

“It all might be different: Mine is people and crowds. For others, it might be super-loud noises,” he

There are groups like We Hire Heroes, a national job board for military veterans, and state-run websites like www.hireacoloradovet.gov. It’s also worth researching a prospective employer’s history of hiring veterans.

The 18th Judicial District Attorney’s office, for example, earned the Pro Patria award this year for its efforts. Prior to the 2013 election of District Attorney George Brauchler, himself an Army Reserve lieutenant colonel, the DA’s office had few vets in the ranks. It now

has six active National Guard and Army Reserve members and eleven veterans, including officers from the Marine Reserve, Navy Reserve, and Colorado Army National Guard, the latter of which recently completed a yearlong deployment to Afghanistan.

Housing for vets highlighted Homes for Our Troops, a national nonprofit foundation with a heavy presence in Colorado, has built numerous adaptive homes for disabled military veterans, particularly a cluster of houses in a

neighborhood near Elizabeth.

Just this month, Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4266 in Parker announced its support of Colorado Coalition for the Homeless to find housing for homeless veterans. According to the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s 2014 Homeless Assessment Report to Congress, there are an estimated 753 homeless veterans in Colorado.

The members of Post 4266 officially launched their support Oct. 29 with a $5,000 cash donation.

His service: Commanded the most decorated infantry platoon to come out of a single engagement in the history of the U.S. as platoon leader of the 3rd Platoon, Easy Company, 28th Marines, 5th Division.

Interesting facts: Wells, 93, was the 1st lieutenant in charge of the flag raising on Iwo Jima. He also wrote a book about Iwo Jima called “Give me 50 Marines Not Afraid to Die.”

ROY POOLE Arvada Lt. Colonel, U.S. Air Force, 1976-1994 Medals and commendations: Meritorious Service Medal with three Oak Leaf Clusters, Air Force Commendation Medal with two Oak Leaf Clusters, Air Force Achievement Medal with Oak Leaf Cluster His service: A former English and language arts teacher in east Los Angeles and Arvada, he joined the Air Force in 1975 as one of 100 people nationwide on a track to become pilots. He eventually headed the Safety Education Division for the Air Force. In all, he spent more than 13 years investigating aircraft accidents and 15 years teaching others to fly safely.

In his words: “During my career, I saw that service was not just combat operations. Service was given by the medical professionals who kept service members and their families healthy. It was given by the technicians, who maintained modern aircraft at the highest level. It was given by the chaplains, who ministered to

military communities and comforted the families of those who made the ultimate sacrifice. On the day I retired, my highest honor was to be counted among those who gave our best in service to America.”

A story: My worst day was responding to a crash on Halloween afternoon. The deceased pilot was a friend of mine, whose children, like mine, were waiting for Daddy to come home. He would not be coming home; and I would not be home for a long time that night, investigating his death. Only one’s faith can get you through a cold night like that one.

The best days were connected with the same tragedy. After weeks of interviewing witnesses, reading the results of scanning microscopes, and duplicating the flight profile at safe altitudes, I had discovered the reason for the crash. My accident board’s recommendations for aircraft modifications were immediately put into effect, and within the year, another aircrew had encountered the same situation. But this time, they were able to recover and survive.

VA home loans are available to any veteran, reducing the down payment needed to buy a home.

Transition assistance available The pride that some veterans carry can prevent them from getting the right assistance.

Each branch of the military has a transitions-assistance program, and it’s a matter of taking advantage of that as well as the many options available for successful re-acclimation into society, said Maxwell, who also connects vets with addiction treatment experts and mental health therapists.

“Anyone who is leaving can go through the transition-assistance program for a number of months, take classes on how to do resumes and that sort of stuff, to get them adjusted back to civilian life,” he said.

His service: Three combat tours in Vietnam that included 29 reconnaissance missions and 124 electronic warfare missions.

He served as acrew commander in both the Atlas D & E and, later, the Minuteman III ICBMs, commanded two Space and Missile Warning and Space Track bases, commanded AAFES Philippines and Thailand, and commanded Task Force Alpha in Panama, the latter making him the first navigator in Military Airlift Command to command a flying organization. His final tour involved working with the Space Shuttle and the Titan IV Space Launch System.

Why he served: He loved the U.S. Air Force from his early youth and wanted to serve the nation he loves. He was rewarded by flying missions ranging from low-level warfare in Vietnam to the edge of space above 70,000 feet in spacesuits.

Interesting facts: The only continent he has not visited is Africa. He holds the record for northern Polar missions with 178 up over the ice cap and is second for North Pole crossings with 78 times over the top.

Event that inspired his most patriotic feelings:One afternoon at DaNang AB, RVN, as he was trying to hitch a ride to prepare for a mission, he heard a Jolly Green Giant rescue helicopter coming from behind. Two A-1E “Sandy” Skyraiders were flying in V-formation behind it.

The Jolly crew was waving red, white and blue smoke flares out the doors and cockpit windows. They’d been on a rescue mission “up north” for a downed pilot. The red, white and blue meant, “We got him!”

As they approached midfield, just above Dale’s head, the “Sandies” peeled off, one left and one right, and the Jolly continued on down the runway. “Patriotears” streamed down his face “at this totally unexpected, overwhelming sight.”

Medal-Active Duty, four Naval Reserve Meritorious Service Medals, National Defense Ribbon, Naval Marine Corps Overseas Duty Ribbon, Armed Forces Reserve Medal In her words: “I enlisted because I wanted the G.I.

Rock Canyon falls to Cherry Creek Jaguars finish season with a 5-5 record

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Rock Canyon won its first four games this season before depth issues and injuries slowed the Jaguars.

Cherry Creek, defending state champion and top-seeded in Region D, combined an overpowering defensive effort with a good running attack to defeat eighthseeded Rock Canyon 38-7 in a first-round state playoff game Nov. 6 at the Stutler Bowl.

The loss ended the season for Rock Canyon with a 5-5 record. The Jaguars lost five of their last six games, and the victory was a forfeit win over Highlands Ranch.

“We got off to a great start,” said Jaguars coach Brian Lamb. “Our depth was unfortunately not there so when we started getting dinged up. We weren’t able to compete at the same level. We kind of got hurt going against the physical teams in our league. I’m proud of what the senior class accomplished. Overall we’ve improved every year in wins and losses, but I also feel we’re developing the program here.

Key moments On the third play of the game, the Bruins’ pass rushers swarmed Rock Canyon quarterback Josh Goldin, forcing a fumble that Creek recovered at the Jaguars’ 2-yard line to set up the first of five touchdowns.

Rock Canyon didn’t pick up its initial first down of the game until late in the third quarter. The Bruins held the Jaguars to 163 yards in total offense and 120 yards of that total came when Creek was playing reserve defensive personnel.

Cherry Creek quarterback Joe Caplis scores the first touchdown in the Bruins’ 38-7 first-round playoff victory over Rock Canyon on Nov. 6 at the Stutler Bowl. Caplis had 66 yards passing. Photo by Jack Eberhard Key players/statistics Marquise Davis rushed for 121 yards and a touchdown on eight carries for the Bruins. Ashton Riley ran for 113 yards on eight attempts.

Rock Canyon, which played without injured running back Jacob Snocker, threw 34 passes in the game. Goldin connected on 10-of-32 passes for 110 yards and a touchdown. However, he was sacked three

times and was under pressure on most of his passing attempts.

Eric Hommel caught seven passes 89 yards and one touchdown. Avery Langley was in on 21 tackles to pace the Jaguars’ defense.

They said it Rock Canyon’s game plan was to throw the football.

“That was a really good defense and I knew we would have trouble in the run game,” said Lamb. “Our best option was try to get the ball out as quick as we could.

With their blitz scheme and our young kids up front, we started three sophomores, they had trouble picking it up and that made it tough on our quarterback and our receivers couldn’t get open quick enough.”

Seven area teams advance in volleyball Two-day state tournament has local flavor Staff report Seven south metro area volleyball teams won in region playoff pool play to advance to the state tournament, which will be held Nov. 13 and 14 at the Denver

Coliseum.

Chaparral, Rock Canyon, Legend, Arapahoe and Cherry Creek will start three-team pool play in Class 5A on Nov. 13. Final round of pool play begins Nov. 14 with four pool winners advancing to the semifinals later in the day. Final matches in all classifications are set for 7 p.m. Nov. 14.

Ponderosa, last season’s Class 4A state runner-up, also qualified for a return trip

to the state tournament. Lutheran will be in the Class 3A tournament after sweeping Lamar and Bennett to advance.

Chaparral, which won back-to-back state titles in 2010 and 2011, swept Grand Junction and Loveland to win the Region 4 title on Nov. 7. Rock Canyon swept the Region 5 championships with wins over Poudre and Pine Creek while Legend defeated Legacy 3-0 and edged Brighton 3-2 to capture the Region 6 title.

Arapahoe took top honors in Region 10 with a 4-1 win over ThunderRidge and a 3-1 victory over Ralston Valley. Cherry Creek defeated Lakewood 15-10 in the decisive fifth set to win the Region 12 championship. The Bruins took their first pool play match with a 3-1 win over Rampart.

Ponderosa swept Palmer Ridge and The Classical Academy to capture the Class 4A Region 3 title.

Homecomings aren’t always easy for athletes Rock Canyon quarterbacks coach Tom Tesone went back to his old stomping grounds Nov. 6 when the Jaguars faced Cherry Creek in a Class 5A opening-round playoff game.

Tesone, son of legendary Cherry Creek coach Fred Tesone, was an all-state quarterback for the Bruins in the early 1970s before heading to the University of Colorado as a defensive back.

He has coached at Creek, Ranum, Mullen, Bishop Machebeuf and at Rock Canyon for the past five seasons.

He said it has been strange watching from the opposite sideline.

“I had the same kind of feelings before when I was coaching at Mullen,” he said.

“Creek had Darnell McDonald, and I remember being on the Mullen sideline in the game against Creek and I had mixed feelings. I was rooting for my kids and the kids I coached, and now with Rock Canyon, it is the same kind of thing.”

Tesone warned the Jaguars what it would be like to play against Creek.

“You are battling the tradition … and just the mystique of playing Cherry Creek,” he said. “It was exciting.”

Cherry Creek beat the Jaguars 38-7.

Six-time world champion Cindi Toepel, a 64-year-old Littleton resident, added another world championship to her list of accomplishments.

Toepel was first in the 60-64 age diJim Benton vision at the Xterra National ChamOVERTIME pionship Nov. 1 in Kapalua, Maui, Hawaii to win her sixth overall title. The competition includes mountain biking, open water swimming and trail running.

The off-road triathlete had an overall winning time of 4:23.31.

Recruiting event set for Dec. 2 Valor Christian will host a recruiting event for unsigned football players from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Dec. 2 in the gym of the Highlands Ranch school.

So far 40 Division II, Division III and NAIA schools will be in attendance to talk

with potential athletes.

For information contact Bill Bufton at bill.bufton@valorchristian.com Ready for winter?

Official practice for boys and girls basketball, wrestling, ice hockey and girls swimming can start Nov. 12.

Interscholastic scrimmages for the 95th season of Colorado High School Activities Association winter sports can begin Nov. 18 and first contests can be played starting on Dec. 1.

First state championship teams crowned in 1921 were Colorado Springs in football, Greeley in basketball and Fort Collins in track and field.

Alumni report Kailey Norman, a Valor Christian graduate who is the starting goalie for the Montana women’s soccer team, was named Big Sky Defensive Player of the Week once this season and finished the campaign with 83 saves and seven shutouts.

Chris Linnin, a freshman from Castle View High School, was the quarterback

for McPherson College in McPherson, Kansas, but it was his punting that gained notoriety.

He was honored as Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference Special Teams Player of the Week on Oct. 26. In the final three games of the season, he averaged 51.75, 40.60 and 47.50 yards per punt. For the season Linnin averaged 39.72 yards on 54 punts.

Gymnastics Gymnastics is a rigorous and physically demanding sport.

That was evident when the final four teams lined up Nov. 7 at the state gymnastics meet in Thornton. Each team had competitors on crutches or in a wheelchair.

There were athletic trainers available to tape ankles and wrists but girls had to bring their own tape that was issued by the schools.

School has a lot to say Immersion programs launch kids with second languages

By Clarke Reader creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com

R

achel Gutierrez’s reason for enrolling her 3-year-old daughter in a dual-language program where she splits her day between Spanish and English was

simple: “I wish I had learned a second language, and I figure this is a way we can give our daughter a raise later in life,” said Gutierrez, whose family has a Spanishlanguage background. “Businesses are always looking for bilingual workers, so we’re giving her a great start.”

BENEFITS OF LEARNING A SECOND LANGUAGE Studying a foreign language can lead to:

• Better ability to hypothesize in science

• Higher academic achievement on standardized test measures and college-entrance exams, such as ACT and SAT

• Higher academic performance at the college level

• Improvement in students’ reading abilities That focus on language is the top priority for Global Village Academies, a charter school that emphasizes cultural immersion. Its has K-8 schools in Northglenn and Parker, and its international preschool programs are located in

Source: American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages Arvada, Lakewood, Littleton, Parker and Lafayette, with more on the way.

“At our preschools, students spend 50 percent of the day immersed in their target language,” said Anne Yost, director of Global Village’s Lakewood location.

“We use a High-Scope curriculum, which is play-based. We believe when the kids have a choice, they are more engaged in their learning.”

The school is open year-round from 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. to accommodate families with busy schedules who can choose from two-, three- and five-day schedules.

Preschoolers decide between Mandarin and Spanish as their language of focus, and complete activities and plans that ensure they retain their new language knowledge.

“We’re seeing more and more parents Language continues on Page 29

wanting to ensure their children get started with languages young,” Yost said. “Kids start to comprehend language really early, so we’re getting bilingual parents who want to make sure their children stay up with their second language, and parents who want second-language exposure.”

Global Village aims to keep classes small — the Lakewood location where Gutierrez’s daughter attends can accommodate about 65 preschoolers — and has two instructors for each age group. This commitment to personal teaching is one of Gutierrez’s favorite aspects about the school.

Teachers like the personalized approach, too.

“I was teaching in Jeffco for two years before coming here, and I speak five languages,” said Margot Aguilera, who teaches Spanish at the Lakewood location. “I was looking for something different, something with more interaction with the kids.”

Young children’s minds are sponges, Aguilera added, and lessons that seem difficult to adults are actually quickly understood by children.

Mandarin instructor Chen Chen said she is constantly impressed by how much her students retain of such a complicated language.

“Learning a language is not just learning how to speak it, but write it as well,” she said. “I really enjoy getting a chance to share my culture with the kids. And when they follow along and speak with me, I get so excited.”

Parents are looking for opportunities to expose their children to more diversity and cultural variety, according to Yost, which is one reason Global Village is seeing an increase in interest.

“Our biggest priority is that the children are in a place they feel safe and loved,” she said. “If that’s in place, the sky is the limit in relation to what they learn. For so many parents, the gift of foreign language is not a gift 9 they can give to their children.”

Global Village International preschools give students an opportunity to get started with Spanish or Mandarin at an early age, when it’s easier for them to pick it up. Photos by Anne Yost

Students at the Global Village International preschool in Lakewood get a start on Spanish class for the day.

Global Village has opened nearly a half-dozen locations in the metro area since March, responding to parents’ desire to get their children started on a second language early.

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF NOV. 9, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Your honesty continues to impress everyone who needs reassurance about a project. But be careful you don’t lose patience with those who are still not ready to act.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Pushing others too hard to do things your way could cause resentment and raise more doubts. Instead, take more time to explain why your methods will work.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Be more considerate of those close to you before making a decision that could have a serious effect on their lives. Explain your intentions and ask for their advice.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You might have to defend a workplace decision you plan to make.

Colleagues might back you up on this, but it’s the facts that will ultimately win the day for you.

Good luck.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) The Big Cat’s coworkers might not be doing enough to help get that project finished. Your roars might stir things up, but gentle purrr-suasion will prove to be more effective.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Someone you care for needs help with a problem. Give it lovingly and without judging the situation. Whatever you feel you should know will be revealed later.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) While you’re to be admired for how you handled recent workplace problems, be careful not to react the same way to a new situation until all the facts are in.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Rely on your keen instincts as well as the facts at hand when dealing with a troubling situation. Be patient. Take things one step at a time as you work through it.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Your curiosity leads you to ask questions.

However, the answers might not be what you hoped to hear. Don’t reject them without checking them out.

Super Crossword & Sudoku Answers

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Be careful not to tackle a problem without sufficient facts. Even sure-footed Goats need to know where they’ll land before leaping off a mountain path.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Appearances can be deceiving. You need to do more investigating before investing your time, let alone your money, in something that might have some hidden flaws.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Your recent stand on an issue could make you the focus of more attention than you would like. But you’ll regain your privacy, as well as more time with loved ones, by week’s end.

BORN THIS WEEK: You’re a good friend and a trusted confidante. You would be a wonderful teacher and a respected member of the clergy. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

15CW3129 Brent and Susan Bailey, 10789 Flatiron Drive, Littleton, CO 80124 (James J. Petrock, Petrock & Fendel, 700 17th Street, #1800, Denver, CO 80202), APPLICATION FOR UNDERGROUND WATER RIGHTS FROM NOT NONTRIBUTARY SOURCE, CHANGE OF WATER RIGHTS, AND FOR APPROVAL OF PLAN FOR AUGMENTATION, IN THE NOT NONTRIBUTARY DENVER AQUIFER, DOUGLAS COUNTY. Subject Property and Estimated Annual Amount: Tract 48A, McArthur Ranch Filing 3 1st Amendment, comprised of 14.9 acres, and generally located in the N1/2NW1/4 of Section 21, T6S, R67W of the 6th P.M., as shown on Attachment A (Subject Property). 2.4 acre-feet per year of not nontributary Denver aquifer groundwater underlying the easterly 8.7 acres was decreed in Case No. 06CW131. Approximately 1.3 acrefeet per year of not nontributary Denver aquifer groundwater underlying the remaining 6.2 acres located in the westerly part of the tract was reserved in amended decree in Case No. 86CW227 for use through exempt wells, and that annual amount is requested to be decreed herein.

Source of Water Rights: The Denver aquifer groundwater underlying the Subject Property is not nontributary as described in Section 37-90-103(10.7), C.R.S. Proposed Use: Domestic, irrigation, and stockwatering, including storage and augmentation. Decree information and Proposed Change: The decree in Case No. 06CW131 entered February 20, 2008, decreed 2.4 acre-feet per year of not nontributary Denver aquifer groundwater underlying 8.7 acres of the Subject Property as shown on Attachment A. By this change, Applicants request that the annual amount of Denver aquifer groundwater requested herein be combined with the 2.4 acre-feet per year of Denver aquifer groundwater decreed in Case No. 06CW161 for withdrawal through wells to be located at any location of the Subject Property. No other parts of Case No. 06CW131 are changed herein. Description of plan for augmentation: Groundwater to be augmented: 3 acre-feet per year of not nontributary Denver aquifer groundwater to be decreed herein and as decreed in Case No. 06CW161, pursuant to the change requested herein. Water rights to be used for augmentation: Return flows from the use of not nontributary Denver aquifer water and return flows or direct discharge of nontributary groundwater decreed in Case No. 06CW161. Statement of plan for augmentation: The 3 acre-feet per year of Denver aquifer groundwater will be used to serve up to three residential lots on the Subject Property, through individual wells, including through existing well Permit No. 174103. Each lot will require 1 acre-foot per year for in house use (0.35 acre-feet), irrigation of 8500 square feet of home lawn and garden (0.5 acre-feet), stockwatering (0.05 acre-feet), and use in a water feature (0.1 acre-feet). Applicants reserve the right to amend these values without amending the application or republishing the same. Sewage treatment for in house use will be provided by non-evaporative septic systems. Return flows associated with in house and irrigation use will be approximately 90% and 15%, respectively.

Water used for stockwatering and in a water feature is fully consumed. During pumping Applicants will replace an amount equal to 4% of the annual amount withdrawn to the affected stream system pursuant to Section 37-90-137(9)(c.5), C.R.S. Applicants estimate that depletions occur to the Big Dry Creek stream system. Return flows accrue to the South Platte River stream system, and those return flows are sufficient to replace an amount equal to 4% of the annual amount withdrawn while the subject groundwater is being pumped. Applicant will reserve an equal amount of nontributary groundwater underlying the Subject Property to meet post pumping augmentation requirements.

Further, Applicants pray that this Court grant the application and for such other relief as seems proper in the premises. (6 pages).

A. The 1986 Exchange 1. Original Decree.

Case No. 86CW388(A), decreed by the District Court in and for Water Division 1 on January 29, 1991, at an annual maximum rate of ten (10.0) cubic feet per second, with an appropriation date of April 21, 1986. The purpose of the appropriative right of substitution and exchange is to permit continuous diversions of water for all municipal purposes, including domestic, industrial, commercial, irrigation, stock watering, recreation, fish and wildlife and fire protection from the alluvial, tributary wells referenced in paragraph 3, above, when diversions would otherwise not be permitted. a.

Pursuant to the decree entered in Case No. 86CW388(A), ACWWA may divert water from the well structures described in paragraph 2, above, in amounts equal to the return flows from the Lone Tree Wastewater Treatment Plant, either through direct discharge to the stream, discharge to rapid infiltration basins, or land application, the credit for lawn grass irrigation return flows, and direct discharges into the stream from the nontributary water rights. b. Pursuant to the decree entered in Case No. 86CW388(A), ACWWA may exchange water and return flow credits from the Lone Tree Wastewater Treatment Plant down Lone Tree Creek to the confluence with Cherry Creek, upstream to any of the wells described herein, specifically including the Antonoff Wells and Loyd Wells located in Section 9, Township 6 South, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M., Douglas County, Colorado. 2. Subsequent Decrees. a. Case No. 97CW395. In Case No. 97CW395, 2.13 cfs of the 10 cfs was decreed absolute, and diligence was found with respect to the remaining 7.87 cfs. b. Case No. 07CW131. In Case No. 07CW131, the remaining 7.87 cfs was continued as conditional. B. The 1988 Exchange 1. Original Decree. Case No. 86CW388(A), decreed by the District Court in and for Water Division 1 on January 29, 1991, at an annual maximum rate of twenty (20.0) cfs, with an appropriation date of April 12, 1988. The purpose of this appropriative right of substitution and exchange was to permit continuous diversions of water for all municipal purposes, including domestic, industrial, commercial, irrigation, stock watering, recreation, fish and wildlife and fire protection from the tributary wells referenced herein, when diversions would otherwise not be permitted. a. Pursuant to the decree entered in Case No. 86CW388(A), Applicant may divert pursuant to the exchange decreed herein so long as sufficient water is released from Cherry Creek Reservoir, or with the approval of the Division Engineer, and sufficient water is transferred to or booked over to other water accounts in Cherry Creek Reservoir to satisfy a senior call. b. ACWWA may exchange water from Cherry Creek Reservoir, upstream to any of the wells described herein, specifically including the Antonoff Wells and Loyd Wells located in Section 9, Township 6 South, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M., Douglas County, Colorado. 2. Subsequent Decrees. a. Case No. 97CW395. In Case No. 97CW395, 0.30 cfs of the 20 cfs was decreed absolute, and diligence was found with respect to the remaining 19.70 cfs. b. Case No. 07CW131. In Case No. 07CW131, the remaining 19.70 cfs was continued as conditional. 4.

Detailed Outline of Work Done for Completion of the Conditional Appropriations and the Application of Water to Beneficial Uses. During this diligence period, ACWWA undertook the following work in furtherance of these conditional water rights, including the following: A. The conditional water rights decreed herein are part of a unified, integrated system which will provide water within ACWWA’s service area. Pursuant to section 37-92-301(4)(b) of the Colorado Revised Statutes, for purposes of demonstrating diligence, work on one feature of the project or system shall be considered in finding that reasonable diligence has been shown in the development of all water rights conditionally decreed herein, and shall constitute diligence toward the development of each of the conditional water rights decreed herein. A detailed list of work done toward completion or for completion of the appropriations and application of water to a beneficial use as conditionally decreed includes, but is not limited to, the following: 1. ACWWA constructed and tested Antonoff Well Nos. 1 and 2. The wells are operational and available to provide water supply as needed.

2. In 2013, ACWWA’s engineering consultants prepared and submitted to the Division Engineer an analysis of lawn irrigation return flows throughout Applicant’s service area. This report is required to be prepared every five years pursuant to the decree entered in Case No. 86CW388(A).

Said return flows will provide part of the physical and legal water supply for all of the structures and conditional water rights described herein. 3. ACWWA is a member of the Upper Cherry Creek Water Association (“UCCWA”). UCCWA developed a regional plan for augmentation, which was decreed in Case No. 01CW284 on December 4, 2007. ACWWA has expended substantial sums on engineering and legal fees in participating in the UCCWA regional plan and litigation.

ACWWA is currently operating under the UCCWA plan. 4. ACWWA initiated its 2007 Master Water Plan update. That update became the draft ACWWA 2011 Integrated Water and Wastewater Master and Management Plan and is currently being finalized by Applicant’s staff and consultants. 5. ACWWA has redrilled and relocated several of its wells and designed and built pipelines that will provide substitute water supplies for the augmentation plans decreed in Case Nos. 86CW388(A) and 90CW201 and pending in Case No. 96CW1144 for the structures described in paragraph 3 of this Decree and for the conditional exchange rights described in paragraph 4 of this Decree. 6. ACWWA has developed a nonpotable water system, which may be served in part by the structures and Subject Water Rights described in paragraph 3 of this Decree.

ACWWA has constructed some of the facilities necessary to operate the nonpotable system. That system is currently being expanded, in part by the current construction of Chambers Reservoir in Douglas County. 7. ACWWA and Cottonwood Water and Sanitation District (“CWSD”) jointly developed a Joint Water Purification Plant (“JWPP”), which became operational in 2010 and is currently serving both entities. The operation of the JWPP requires some level of integration of the water systems of the two entities.

Some adjustments to prior decrees are being sought in pending case Nos. 96CW1144 (ACWWA) and 08CW028 (CWSD). ACWWA and CWSD secured approval of joint Substitute Water Supply Plans in both cases from 2010 to the present. Those Plans are necessary to support JWPP operations. In connection

(“CWSD”) jointly developed a Joint Water Purification Plant (“JWPP”), which became operational in 2010 and is currently serving both entities. The operation of the JWPP requires some level of integration of the water systems of the two entities.

Some adjustments to prior decrees are being sought in pending case Nos. 96CW1144 (ACWWA) and 08CW028 (CWSD). ACWWA and CWSD secured approval of joint Substitute Water Supply Plans in both cases from 2010 to the present. Those Plans are necessary to support JWPP operations. In connection with the JWPP construction, ACWWA has also completed extensive testing of the water supplies in the Happy Canyon Creek drainage adjacent to the JWPP. Surface water and groundwater claims from Happy Canyon Creek are now pending in ACWWA’s amended Case No. 96CW1144. 8. ACWWA obtained a decree in Case No. 09CW101, which adjudicated additional Denver Basin groundwater and a Well Field. The water supplies from this case will be integrated into ACWWA’s system and the return flows from these uses will provide part of the augmentation supply for the Conditional Water Rights described in paragraph 3 of this Decree. These water supplies have been added to ACWWA’s pending plan for augmentation in Case No. 96CW1144. 9.

ACWWA entered into an Intergovernmental Agreement (“IGA”) with East Cherry Creek Valley Water and Sanitation District and United Water and Sanitation District dated December 15, 2009. One of the major elements of the IGA is to bring new water supplies to ACWWA’s service area from areas north of Denver.

ACWWA’s portion of this project is known as the “ACWWA Flow Water Project.”

These supplies will provide additional potable water and will be reusable. The return flows from the ACWWA Flow Water Project will provide additional augmentation supplies, allowing further development of the conditional water rights decreed in Case No. 90CW201. In furtherance of the goals of the IGA, ACWWA filed four new cases, Case Nos. 10CW306, 10CW312, 10CW313, which have since been decreed, and Case No. 11CW151, which is currently pending in Water Division 1. ACWWA also intervened as a Co-Applicant with United Water and Sanitation District in Case No. 09CW283. 10. ACWWA’s pending plan for augmentation in Case No. 96CW1144 was most recently amended on December 31, 2010. That proceeding will result in additional augmentation supplies being available to support the use of the conditional water rights adjudicated in Case Nos. 86CW388(A) and 90CW201. The amended proceeding now also seeks adjudication of a storage water right for Chambers Reservoir in Douglas County.

The predominant use of Chambers Reservoir is expected to be as an element of ACWWA’s nonpotable water system and for management and release of augmentation water supplies. 11. ACWWA is a member of the Cherry Creek Project Water Authority (“CCPWA”), together with several other municipal water providers.

During the diligence period, CCPWA has been active in the purchase of water rights, planning, and engineering, and the filing of the applications and entries of final decrees in Case No. 10CW318 (regional plan for augmentation on Cherry Creek) and Case No. 11CW56 (change of Denver Basin groundwater rights). 12.

During the diligence period, ACWWA, as a member of CCPWA, and Parker Water and Sanitation District negotiated a Water Trade and Utilization Pilot Project Intergovernmental Agreement (“Agreement”).

The Agreement was entered into on November 1, 2013. 13. During the diligence period, ACWWA has been an active objector in numerous Water Court cases involving Cherry Creek, in which it seeks to protect its decreed water rights, including the Conditional Water Rights described herein. 5. Claim to Make Absolute a Portion of the Conditional Water Rights. A. During this diligence period, ACWWA has diverted in priority, captured, possessed, controlled, and beneficially used water from the following wells and in the following amounts, which it hereby claims as ABSOLUTE: 1. Race Well No. 1: 1.95 cfs of 2.67 cfs, diverted in priority from July 11-17, 2011, leaving 0.72 cfs as conditional. 2. Ford Well No. 2: 1.23 cfs of 2.67 cfs, diverted in priority from May 24-30, 2010, leaving 1.44 cfs as conditional. 3. Murdock Well No. 2: 0.44 cfs of 1.78 cfs, diverted in priority from May 2430, 2010, leaving 1.34 cfs as conditional.

4. Deem Well: 1.22 cfs of 1.22 cfs, diverted in priority from May 24-30, 2010, leaving 0.00 cfs as conditional. 5. Smith Well No. 1: 1.67 cfs of 1.67 cfs, diverted in priority from May 24-30, 2010, leaving 0.00 cfs as conditional. 6. Loyd Well No. 2: 2.74 cfs of 2.74 cfs, diverted in priority from May 24-30, 2010, leaving 0.00 cfs as conditional. B. During this diligence period, ACWWA operated the 1986 Exchange in the amount of 3.66 cfs from July 25-31, 2011. ACWWA therefore claims as absolute 3.66 cfs of the 10 cfs total exchange rate, leaving 6.34 cfs as conditional. 6. Name and address of owner of the land on which the structures are or will be located, upon which water is or will be stored, or upon which water is or will be placed to beneficial use. ACWWA will use the water on lands located within ACWWA’s service area. The well sites are located on lands to which ACWWA owns or has easements. WHEREFORE, Applicant Arapahoe County Water and Wastewater Authority respectfully requests that this Court enter a decree finding that: (1) Applicant has exercised reasonable diligence in the development of the conditional water rights described in paragraph 2, above, (2) 1.95 cfs of the Race Well No. 1 water right, 1.23 cfs of the Ford Well No. 2 water right, 0.44 cfs of the Murdock Well No. 2 water right, 1.22 cfs of the Deem Well water right, 1.67 cfs of the Smith Well No. 1 water right, and 2.74 cfs of the Loyd Well No. 2 water right have been made ABSOLUTE, (3) 3.66 cfs of the 1986 Exchange has been made ABSOLUTE, leaving 6.34 cfs as conditional, and (5) for such other and further relief as this Court deems just and proper.

The Amended Service Plans are available for public inspection at the office of the City of Castle Pines, 7501 Village Square Drive, Suite 100, Castle Pines, CO 80108.

Government Legals

The Districts were organized as metropolitan districts to finance the construction of certain public improvements and have the authority to impose a mill levy for repayment of debt and for administrative, operation and maintenance purposes. The maximum mill levy that a District may impose upon taxable property within such District for the combination of debt service and operations costs shall not exceed 69 mills; however, this maximum shall not apply when the total amount of debt is equal to or less than fifty percent of a District’s assessed valuation. If the method of calculating assessed valuation is changed by law, the maximum mill levy may be increased or decreased to reflect such changes.

The Districts are seeking the amendment in an effort to minimize the number of districts necessary to finance the public improvements required for The Canyons project, increase efficiency of operation and reduce costs, and to eliminate the maximum debt mill levy impositions term provision contained in the the current service plans. In addition, the Districts desire to: 1) reduce the maximum interest rate on any debt from eighteen percent (18%) to twelve percent (12%); 2) allow the Districts to own, operate and maintain park and recreation improvements, landscaped or open space parcels; 3) provide covenant enforcement and design review; and 4) remove the limitations on the operations fee.

NOTICE IS HEREBY FURTHER GIVEN that all protests and objections must be submitted in writing to the City Council at or prior to the hearing or any continuation or postponement thereof in order to be considered, and that any protests and objections to the Amended Service Plans, as proposed shall be deemed waived unless presented at the time and in the manner as specified above.
