Concern over 911 call times spurs fee proposal Boost in monthly charges could keep waits from growing longer

BY ANDREW KENNEY AKENNEY@DENVERITE.COM

“I think there’s definitely a point with craft beer where you shouldn’t expect to open your door and have success,” Kurowski said.

“You’re going to have to work for it.”

That’s why in their hunt for a new brewery to move into the 3,200-square-foot Beryl’s space, landlords Trent Carlyle and Adam Camras were hoping to bring in an existing brewery looking for a second location.

They recently told Denverite that they were close to wrapping up lease negotiations, but couldn’t say with whom. Camras said they had more than 14 offers and well over 100 calls.

If you dial Denver 911 today, the phone won’t be ringing very long: The average call is answered within seven seconds.

But the city expects its emergency responses to get slower and slower if nothing changes, according to Denver’s emergency planners.

Operators have been dealing with a significant bump in emergency calls.

The volume shot up by more than 10 percent, to about 1,116,000 calls, from 2014 to 2015.

That drove the average wait time from about eight seconds to nearly 19 seconds, according to city records.

City officials said population growth and the proliferation of cell phones both drove up calls.

They’ve made improvements since then, bringing the average wait back down to six seconds by hiring new employees and launching new ways to retain current staff.

But the city’s growing population, combined with tricky finances, still pose a problem, according to safety officials. By 2022, they expect that only 82 percent of calls will be answered within 15 seconds, compared to 92 percent today.

Their solution: Higher charges on your phone bill.

Starting in 1998, Denver created an extra charge on local phone bills — 45 cents per month.

Under a new proposal, the city would increase that surcharge on local cells and landlines from 70 cents to $1.20 per month.

“We were expecting with the growth in the population to have a growth in the (revenues from the) surcharge,” said Laura Wachter, deputy director of safety.

Brewery saturation changes situation New phase in iconic local industry requires distinctive approach

BY ASHLEY DEAN ADEAN@DENVERITE.COM

Something unusual is happening in Denver: A brewery is closing.

Beryl’s Beer Co. made the announcement in March. After a little less than four years at 3120 Blake St., they are closing their doors for good.

Restaurants close in Denver all the time, but breweries? It’s a fairly rare occurrence — one that

poses the questions of whether the brewery bubble is about to pop.

“I would say there’s no cause for alarm for craft beer and craft beer lovers. However, the landscape is changing and it’s not the gold rush everyone maybe thought it was a few years ago,” said Steve Kurowski, marketing director for the Colorado Brewers Guild. “To survive in craft beer moving forward, you’re going to be a high-quality brewer, be a good business, and be very visible in your community.”

What’s happening isn’t so much a bubble burst as a saturation.

It’s just looking like the Colorado craft beer industry has hit a limit, and that means opening a brewery and keeping it alive will be harder.

THE BOTTOM LINE PERIODICAL

“I have to get in where I fit in. Right now, that’s learning and listening and being quiet.”

Arrest authority proposed for school safety officers Visions of how process would play out spark sharp divisions

“Going down this road would double down on policing and criminalizing students of color.”

BY MELANIE ASMAR CHALKBEAT.ORG

School safety patrol officers in the Denver district would get the authority to arrest students and write tickets under an idea being explored by the district’s safety department.

The head of Denver Public Schools’ safety department says the goal would actually be to end the “school-to-prison pipeline” that criminalizes students for misbehavior at school.

The idea is that giving more authority to school safety officers who have experience with children and training in the district’s restorative justice model would mean outside police get called less often, even for matters that are potentially criminal.

This is not yet a formal proposal, but the idea is already generating pushback.

Local organization Padres y Jóvenes Unidos has worked for years to reduce harsh disciplinary practices in the district, and its staff say certifying safety patrol

officers as police officers would represent a big step backward.

“To do this would undo everything you have stood on national platforms bragging about,” said Monica Acosta, the organizing director at Padres y Jóvenes Unidos. “Going down this road would double down on policing and criminalizing students of color.”

About 77 percent of the 92,600 Denver Public Schools students are children of color. Approximately 67 percent of students come from lowincome families.

Police in schools is a controversial topic in Denver. Staff and students at an alternative school called RiseUp Community School have been speaking out about an incident in which Denver police searched for a student the principal told them wasn’t there. The principal said

police officers pulled their guns on a teacher during the search.

The incident sparked intense backlash — and an apology from Denver Public Schools Superintendent Tom Boasberg.

“What happened should not have happened,” he said at a school board meeting May 17. He said the district will participate in a city investigation of the incident and work “to ensure something like this does not ever happen again.”

RiseUp student Mary Jimenez said she and her peers were left feeling disrespected and unsafe.

“Because we are students of color and students of low income, we get harassed and pushed around and we’re expected not to fight back,” Jimenez told the school board.

Although the incident involved city police officers, not district safety officers, community activists said it’s an example of why law enforcement doesn’t belong in schools.

Armed officers create a hostile learning environment, they said.

But Denver Public Schools Chief of Safety Mike Eaton said school policing is different than municipal policing. Whereas city police would be more likely to use the criminal justice system to respond to a report of a student getting into a physical fight or having illegal drugs on campus, Eaton said district officers would be trained to first look to the discipline policy.

The policy emphasizes that consequences should be age-appropriate and that the focus should be on correcting student behavior. “Interventions should provide students

an opportunity to learn from their mistakes,” the policy says, “and reengage the student in learning.”

The district safety department employs about 135 staff members, Eaton said. Of those, 35 are armed safety patrol officers who are not assigned to a particular school but respond to incidents across the district. Those are the only officers the district would seek to certify as police, he said. Unarmed schoolbased campus safety officers would not be certified.

Authorizing any new group as police officers requires approval from state lawmakers.

Denver Public Schools already has 16 “school resource officers,” who are city police officers assigned to work in its large high schools and a few middle schools. Eaton said his aim would not be to increase the number of school resource officers but rather to give the district’s own security staff the discretion to handle police matters.

“We have the opportunity to directly impact the school-to-prison pipeline, to eliminate or reduce it,” Eaton said. School policing, he said, “focuses on restorative and redemptive practices in dealing with students. Students are young. They’re going to make mistakes.”

Several large, urban school districts across the country have their own police forces, including districts in Cleveland, Atlanta, and Miami. Before moving forward with a proposal in Denver, Eaton said he’d seek input from students, parents, and community members.

He has floated the idea by the Denver school board. The board president and vice president said they’re open to discussing any ideas that would make students safer.

But president Anne Rowe said she understands why the community might be concerned.

“I can appreciate the initial reaction of folks when they think about an urban district thinking about certifying their officers,” she said.

“That’s going to require a lot of community engagement and getting down to: What are we trying to accomplish by doing that?”

Police review school search amid angry cries from students Suspect wasn’t found at facility; later surrendered and was charged with attempted murder

“I have heard the concerns from the community and independent monitor regarding the incident that occurred at the RiseUp Community School, and an administrative investigation was opened this morning to review the incident.”

BY COLLEEN SLEVIN ASSOCIATED PRESS

Students and staff demanded answers at a Denver school board meeting nearly a month after officers went classroom by classroom at a largely minority high school in Denver and asked teenagers for their IDs as they looked for a suspect in a shooting.

Several students spoke at the May 17 meeting, saying the April 24 search made them feel targeted, disrespected and unsafe.

“We should not be treated like animals that have just run away from a shelter. We should be treated like humans, like students,” said Mary Jimenez, a 17-year-old junior at RiseUp Community School at 2342 Broadway. “Because we are students of color and students of low income, we get harassed and pushed around and we’re expected not to fight back.

“We need our respect and we need answers,” she said to loud applause.

Denver police have launched

Troy Riggs, Denver Department of Public Safety executive director

an internal investigation, Denver Department of Public Safety Executive Director Troy Riggs said May 16.

“What happened should not have happened,” Denver Public Schools Superintendent Tom Boasberg said.

The search occurred at the small alternative charter school for students ages 16 through 20 who have dropped out of traditional schools or who are at risk of leaving school.

Principal Lucas Ketzer said officers looked for the juvenile suspect over his objections, which he said caused students to feel unsafe and intimidated.

Police pushed a teacher away from her classroom after she said she wouldn’t allow them to enter without a warrant and pulled a gun on a teacher who went out a back door looking for students in an alley where they sometimes hang out, he said.

“I have heard the concerns from the community and independent monitor regarding the incident that occurred at the RiseUp Community School, and an administrative investigation was opened this morning to review the incident,” said Riggs, referring to the civilian oversight agency for Denver’s police and sheriff departments.

EMERGENCY FROM PAGE 1

But it hasn’t worked out that way.

Some people are getting rid of extra fax and business phone lines, while others aren’t updating the addresses on file with their phone companies.

In fact, revenue from the phone-bill surcharges is trending downward.

The change would require approval of the Denver City Council and the state Public Utilities Commission.

The change would put Denver in the middle of the pack, compared to other Colorado counties’ surcharges.

The principal questioned whether police would have conducted such a search at a school with more affluent students. He said his students commonly report feeling intimidated by police outside of school and that the search showed teachers working to gain their confidence cannot protect them from that.

“This just sets back all the work we’re trying to do because the trust is broken again,” Ketzer said.

He said he initially searched for the student at school April 24 and told police he was not there. School district security then intervened, allowing the officers to go inside.

Police said in a statement that they had confirmation from a school staffer that the suspect was there. Because of that and the “potentially dangerous circumstances,” police said they did not need a warrant.

Police said no guns were drawn inside the school but did not address Ketzer’s allegation about the teacher outside.

The principal said police told him they wanted to speak to a student potentially involved in a shooting in suburban Lakewood the night before but that officers did not mention any suspicion of him being armed. The juvenile suspect turned

The new rates would go into effect on Nov. 1.

How would they use it?

A higher surcharge would boost income from about $7 million to about $12 million per year.

The safety department wants to use that money to boost its 911 department from 156 employees to 195 employees. The goal is to answer 99 percent of calls within 15 seconds.

The department already has been trying to improve hiring and retention.

What can I do?

The city is trying to teach people when to use 911 (when someone is

himself in a few days later and has been charged with attempted firstdegree murder.

Student Marquise Tom, 20, said police approached him outside during lunch. He said police told him he looked like a suspect they were looking for and asked him for his ID. Tom said he is friends with the suspect, who has lighter skin and fewer tattoos. Later, he said officers came into his classroom and asked a boy to take off his hat so they could look at his face.

“It just made me feel irritated and angry because I couldn’t focus and do my work,” he said.

The school district said its safety chief allowed the search because of the risk of an armed student at school but realizes it was traumatic.

“We look forward to working with our schools, community partners, and the Denver Police Department to ensure that our school-based policing practices preserve the safety and dignity of all involved,” the district said in a statement.

One expert in police training said making an arrest at school can be the right approach to take someone suspected of a violent crime into custody uneventfully.

In a school environment, though, officers have to follow procedures and be cooperative with school officials to minimize risk to everyone else, said Jon Shane, an associate professor at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York.

“You have a contained environment and you know exactly where the suspect is,” said Shane, a former police captain in Newark, New Jersey. “You want to be able to expedite things, keep him from running away or getting outside the school and running off.”

An independent monitor will oversee the police investigation and civilian employees of the police’s conduct review office will review the results to see if any rules or policies were broken, said Riggs’ spokeswoman, Daelene Mix. If there were, Riggs would ultimately be the one to decide whether any disciplinary action is warranted.

injured or bodily harm is threatened) and when to call 311 (when you want to complain about your neighbor, for example).

And, once you’re on the line, be ready to tell the operator where you are, since mobile devices don’t always provide an exact location.

In other 911 advice, you can fill out a Smart911 “safety profile” about your family and you can sign up for Swift911 alerts. You can also text 911, but that’s only for situations where you can’t or shouldn’t speak.

Mike Whiting’s Sculptures “Pinkie” and “Mr. Green” (steel and paint) are in the City of Denver collection, loaned to the “Pixelated” exhibit at Denver Botanic Gardens.

Whiting said these early works are particular favorites.

the sort of setting you’d imagine finding a deer, munching on plants and grass. Loaned by the Brigham Young University Museum of Art, it is scratched and “feels like an old pickup truck,” Whiting observed. Asked if the scratches bothered him, he talked about “natural, but not nice …,” adding that “once sold, it’s not mine anymore.” A New York gallery owner bought one with graffiti, he recalled — “that’s part of the history…

“I grew up in the West, around lots of old cars …,” he said.

Along a path, reflected in the pond, one finds “Pinkie” and “Mr. Green” (2007), a pair of smaller sculptures, loaned by the City and County of Denver. They are old and scuffed — and two of Whiting’s favorites. “Mr. Green” is after Whiting’s father-inlaw.

Whiting usually works on three or four sculptures at a time in his studio.

“The smaller pieces are harder to fabricate,” he added, “a challenge to weld from the inside.” The larger “Wave” (2018) was especially made for this exhibit and he was especially pleased with the siting of “Cactus” in the Rock Garden — “one of the most beautifully situated in the exhibit.”

It’s modeled after one he saw in a cactus house. Grasses connect with it visually and he was really thinking of a Tupperware color for “Wave,” as he created a page of drawings. “It was really hard to weld inside,’ he recalls.

Other pieces include the older, lavender “Pigeon,” a “Sailboat,” “Cathead” and “Garden Gnome” — of course!

Children will enjoy taking the photo guide that comes with a ticket and seeking each piece across the grounds — as will adults, actually …

Sculptor Mike Whiting brings his memories of vintage 1980s video games (Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, etc.) into another realm as a visitor finds his oversized images amidst the flowers, trees and shrubs that ordinarily inhabit the lush, green Denver Botanic Gardens/York Street grounds in the “Pixelated” sculpture exhibit.

Gardens CEO Brian Vogt, a Littleton native, spoke before a press tour: “The relationship between human life and the natural world dates back 5,000 years … the power of nature, Mike’s video games … The games manipulate that world.”

Whiting said: “I had to fill in the blanks! ... Really, the whole world is pixelated.”

The sculptor arrived to lead a tour appropriately attired in a floral-printed shirt.

At the entrance to DBG, one meets “Ghost and Castle,” (2016) two pieces created with paint and steel, as are all 11 of Whiting’s sculptures tucked into the Gardens. “They are a visual palindrome,” he remarked as he started walking through his works, “the opposite of each other,” related to the game Castles.

“When developing ideas, I draw in Microsoft Paint,” Whiting said. “Then I go to a 3-D modeling program. The pieces are all welded from the inside, as well, and the finish is automotive paint for those under 1,000 pounds … I beat them up with sanders,” he added, wanting some rust to be part of the design.

“Bird” (2012), a very large avian image in robin’s egg blue, was commissioned for a bird-watching spot, he said, and the smaller, orange “Birdie” is exhibited at Brigham Young University (his school). “Buck” (2007) is tucked into a grove of trees,

“Pixelated” will be at the Denver Botanic Gardens, 1007 York St. in Denver, through Sept.

23 and can be viewed during garden hours.

VOICES Artist’s long career has had phenomenal self life

H

ere’s a pop quiz: Who is Cindy Sherman?

Her picture should be on a postage stamp. The picture would be one she had taken herself. QUIET See that phoDESPERATION tograph next to the headline?

It’s one of only nine known photographs of me. I like it like that. Why do I need photographs of myself ? They have one in obits, Jennifer has one Craig Marshall that was taken Smith before my face turned into a pickle, and the DMV took one that permits me to drive and to board an airplane.

Sufficient, but out of touch with everyone else.

Cindy Sherman (born 1954) studied photography at Buffalo State College. Does that help? I could

spend the rest of the column praising her and listing her contributions to modern and contemporary art.

Sherman is credited with the “selfie.” Not by anyone else yet. Just by me.

If you really wanted to get tight about it, Albrecht Dürer was just as responsible, and so was Rembrandt van Rijn. They both documented themselves in countless self-portraits long before there were Nikons and Hasselblads. And camera phones.

Architect Frank Gehry said artists need to find a niche. He found his, and Sherman found hers when she was an undergraduate at Buffalo State. I have tried and tried to find one, but time is running out, and I’ve conceded (mostly). But I am forever in awe of those — especially my contemporaries — who found theirs.

Without cheating.

You can cheat in art. You can appeal to our most fundamental fascinations, without really contribut-

ing anything that is truly nutritive: i.e., those interminable “Star Wars” films.

Sherman started taking photographs of herself when she was an undergraduate, and she hasn’t stopped yet.

I admit I once had a crush on Sherman. She has California-girl looks, but you have to work to find it, because she never looks exactly the same twice. She documents herself with appearance-altering costumes, makeup and prosthetics.

For better or worse, the world is full of Cindy Shermans. At its worse, there have been deaths.

“Earlier this year an Indian man was killed while trying to take a selfie next to a wounded bear (The Conversation).” You won’t get any sympathy out of me.

“A Polish tourist in Seville, Spain, fell off a bridge and died attempting to take a selfie.” You won’t get any sympathy out of me.

“Estimates of daily selfie posts range from 1 million to 93 million.”

Remember Debby Boone’s hit

record? “I Light Up My Life.”

Whenever a conversation about selfies comes up, a character named Narcissus enters the room and hums some Carly: “You had one eye on the mirror, and watched yourself gavotte.”

You know how I feel about handheld devices in the first place. They are endlessly intrusive. Now that they come with cameras, their rust on the intimacies of existence never sleeps.

Of course, there are those who think otherwise.

UCLA psychologist Andrea Letamendi believes selfies “allow young adults to express their mood states and share important experiences.”

Uh, sexting too?

“Cindy, oh, Cindy, don’t let me down. Send me a picture soon, and I’ll be homeward bound.”

Memorial Day reminds us to be grateful for sacrifices

M

y hope is that we can put aside any and all political differences and opinions as we take the time this week to remember all those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for our WINNING freedom. My hope is that we will also WORDS continue to pray for, and support all of the brave men and women who courageously fight and stand at the ready to fight for our continued freedoms today.

In 1986 Ronald Michael Norton Reagan opened his speech at Arlington National Cemetery with this statement, “Today is the day we put aside to remember fallen heroes and to pray that no heroes will ever have to die for us again. It’s a day of thanks for the valor of others, a day to remember

DENVER Since 1926

the splendor of America and those of her children who rest in this cemetery and others. It’s a day to be with the family and remember.”

To some, Memorial Day is just another holiday. It comes once a year, we become patriotic for a day or maybe for the weekend, and then we get back to business as usual, life as we know it. Really, some people treat it no differently than Christmas, Easter, Hanukkah, or Thanksgiving, a holiday that comes and goes and will come again next year.

How awesome would it be to be grateful and give thanks throughout the year rather than just at Thanksgiving? What would our lives be like if we truly thought about the significance of Hanukkah, Christmas, and Easter throughout the year and not just when the holidays are upon us?

My belief is that we would live in a more purpose-filled world, a kinder community, and live together in a more meaningful way.

And Memorial Day is really no dif-

You see we shouldn’t just go back to business as usual or life as we know it, because without the people who have defended us in the past and who have given their lives for us, have been injured, who suffer mental and emotional trauma, and who have served this country with dignity and valor, you and I would not be sitting where we are today. We wouldn’t have “life as we know it.” No one wants war, but we have countries who continue to posture as if they do.

BREWERIES FROM PAGE 1

Being selective “We don’t want to be going through this exercise again in three years or five years,” Carlyle said. “We want to make sure there’s a brand over there and people who are married to this business, passionate about this business. You have to do more than make beer and open your doors. You have to have people invested in it.”

Calvin Beasley, who co-owns Beryl’s with Beth Murray, declined to talk to Denverite about closing the brewery. Carlyle pointed out that the neighborhood has some access issues, thanks to construction, and said it may have been just a little too much. “(Beasley and Murray) are great people, we like them a lot. I think they had too much on their plates to make it happen,” he said. “They both had very demanding full-time jobs and you can’t just throw someone in a tap room and not be paying attention to the experience and the details.”

Kurowski said there are about 70 breweries operating in Denver right now.

In the RiNo Art District, there are more than a dozen breweries: 10 Barrel Brewing, 14er Brewing Co., Bierstadt Lagerhaus, Black Shirt Brewing Co., Blue Moon Brewing Co., C Squared Ciders, Epic Brewing Company, Great Divide Brewing Co., Mockery Brewing, New Belgium Brewing, Odell Brewing Co., Our Mutual Friend Brewing, Ratio Beerworks and Stem Ciders.

And there used to be more.

Before Beryl announced things weren’t working out, Zephyr Brewing Co. closed up shop at 25th and Walnut streets and reopened at 58th Avenue and Franklin Street. Before that, River North Brewery was kicked out of its original home at 24th and Blake streets in 2015 and found space on North Washington Street, just around the corner from where Zephyr would later move in.

Both breweries are in that weird part of Adams County just west of Commerce City, where everything has a Denver address.

Bruz Beers started up there in the first place, betting that it would be best to remove itself from already beer-soaked Denver neighborhoods and their high rent.

“Brookfield Residential was the company that developed this. They did a lot of marketing research … and they determined that this is the growth path north out of Denver,” co-owner and brewmaster Charlie Gottenkieny told Denverite at his brewery’s soft opening. For what it’s worth, Bruz is still open.

Clusters of breweries like what you find in RiNo can be good because it means more business from people who brewery-hop. In their listing for the Beryl’s space, Carlyle and Camras advertise the proximity to the art district’s other breweries as well as “a vast network of breweries and beer aficionados in

Trent Carlyle, co-landlord of 3120 Blake St.

Denver, one of the most popular locations for beer lovers.”

Standing out It also, of course, means stiffer competition. People can only hit so many breweries in a trip, so your brewery needs to make the list.

Aside from a keen business sense, the trick for breweries now might be to think small.

“We’re seeing more growth with these smaller neighborhood breweries than breweries that are 25 years old,” Kurowski said. “… No, the sky’s not falling. But the industry is changing where some of these more established breweries are starting to still grow, but not grow as fast as they were couple of years ago. The opportunity is in small, neighborhood breweries.”

And they won’t necessarily even grow to be very big, but they can run a strong, healthy small business.

It’s working for Strange Craft Beer Co. and Wit’s End Brewing Co., who like so many Denver couples recently moved in together in part to split the cost of rent.

The spot at 1330 Zuni St. — tucked into an industrial area bounded by Interstate 25, West Colfax Avenue and the South Platte River — was first home to Strange Craft. It’s an unlikely success story, given the brewery’s environs, but owner Tim Myer has been making it work for eight years.

Wit’s End, itself seven years old, left its also out-of-the-way location at 2505 W. Second Ave. and moved in with Strange Craft on Dec. 1, 2017.

With it, it brought a loyal following and head brewer Tyler Bies.

“The reason we decided to do it and the reason it worked is we’re such great friends,” head brewer Tyler Bies said. “… When Tim opened up, there wasn’t really any taproom-only breweries like Strange Craft in Denver. You had some of the bigger breweries like Great Divide and Wynkoop, but you didn’t really have the super small, taproom-focused, no-distribution breweries yet.”

(It’s true. According to a Westword story about the merger, there were only five taproom-only breweries at the time.)

Neighborhood focus Together and separately, Strange Craft and Wit’s End have survived for so long because they’re neighborhood breweries. Neither location seems conducive to that, but owners, brewers and staff dedicated to creating a welcoming community vibe made it happen.

“I think the reason that it worked is that Tim is so personable,” Bies said. “He’s behind the bar talking to you and explaining the beers, engaging you in a way you don’t get at a lot of breweries with a huge staff. … Without Tim, I don’t think the brewery would still be here.”

Bies also chalks up both breweries’ success to being adaptable —

staying in tune with and following shifts in market trends, like the decline of growlers and the rise of the six-pack.

Merging didn’t hurt, either, and not just because it lowers rent costs for both breweries.

“I hate I use the word ‘competitive,’” Bies said. “… But I think at the end of the day you do have to make yourself stand out in the crowd, and I think that’s kind of one of the ways we’ve done that, creating this partnership.”

So what’s next for craft beer in Denver?

The suburbs, maybe.

Bruz, Zephyr and River North are already out there, up north — though River North plans to return to its namesake area. Kurowski said the number of breweries in the suburbs is already on the rise, citing Periodic Brewing in Northglenn and Big Choice Brewing in Brighton.

For one thing, it’s cheaper. For another, those communities are looking for the same magic that makes Denver’s little breweries work.

“You can really engage in that community,” Kurowski said, “and be really bright spot for people to come grab a beer and be part of the community.”

LIFE Culture is illuminated after dark

May 31, 2018

Zoo, museums offer evening events for adults

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Visit Denver’s cultural hot spots like the Denver Zoo or Museum of Nature & Science during a summer day and there will be children of all ages running around everywhere.

While it’s always fun to experience Denver’s many cultural amenities as family, there are just as many adults who want to do exploring of their own. Preferably, while having a drink or two.

“Adults want the opportunity to learn, too,” said Jessa Phillips, the Museum of Nature & Science’s adult programs manager. “Because of that, the museum offers experiences that offer an adult night out.”

When facilities like the zoo, museum, Museum of Contemporary Art and more shut down after regular hours, that doesn’t mean they’re closed. Instead, they offer specialty programming that provides more depth, entertainment and a different kind of community.

“This is a different angle of the zoo than most people see when we’re open and full of crowds,” said Jake Kubié, communications manager with the Denver Zoological Foundation. “We want to make the zoo more accessible for adults and show that we are a place people can learn, explore, and even have a date night.”

When it comes to after-hours activities, these facilities’ events mainly fall into two categories — series and one-offs.

The Museum of Nature & Science has a monthly Science Lounge series specifically for those who are 21 years old and older, featuring rotating topics and special drinks on the third Thursday of every month. Likewise, the zoo hosts the Watering Hole, an adult lecture series that features a unique theme, light appetizers and a cash bar.

The Museum of Contemporary Art has several after hour programs during the summer, including the Three Things, Any Three Things series, which is an experiment in performance, lecture, and music. There is also B-Side Music Fridays, a rooftop summer music series focused on presenting the best emerging Denver bands.

Finally, the museum works with the Denver Center for the Performing Arts to host Mixed Taste, which pairs two speakers, giving presentations on completely unrelated subjects, followed by questions from the audience on both topics at the same time.

“These after-hours events allow the museum to better integrate into people’s everyday life,” said Clayton Kenney, director of experience and strategy with the MCA. “They also

The Denver Botanic Gardens’ annual summer concert series is back this year, and is open to all ages. Artists like The Milk Carton Kids and Chris Botti will be performing this year.

COURTESY OF DENVER BOTANIC GARDENS The Do At The Zoo event will be held this year on June 21, and will feature samples of about 70 restaurants and breweries as well as live music.

The Denver Botanic Gardens hosts its popular Summer Concert Series, which is open to everyone, and features artists like Bruce Hornsby and Amos Lee. Plus, the gardens host a couple family fun nights each summer, featuring s’mores and storytelling.

The majority of programs at the Museum of Contemporary Art are all-ages but are generally better suited for adults. The museum is also planning a teen takeover of the museum, called Festivus Maximus, on June 23. The event is free for teens, regular admission for adults, and filled with the kind of wild and crazy antics that only people under 18 could dream up, said Clayton Kenney, the museum’s director of experience and strategy.

Then there are special one-off events that visitors have just one opportunity to participate in.

Such events include Do At The Zoo, which will be held from 7 to 10 p.m. on June 21, which allows attendees the chance to sample dishes from 70 of the city’s best restaurants and purveyors of the local craft beer, wine and spirits. Tickets include an open bar as well as live musical entertainment.

“We have tasting stations all over the zoo, so people can explore while they’re eating,” said Kubié. “This is a

chance to engage with people on a different level. You can have a night out with dinner and get to see what the animals are like in the evenings. It’s the best of both worlds.”

The History Colorado Center is also getting in on the fun, hosting “Collecting America’s Passion” from 7 to 8 p.m. on July 16. The evening will explore the history and legacy of baseball and share the stories behind some of the artifacts in the new Play Ball! exhibit.

Lindsay willing to play any role to latch on with Broncos

BY PAT GRAHAM ASSOCIATED PRESS

The fieriness of undrafted rookie running back Phillip Lindsay will be put on the back burner.

Not for long, just for now.

The former Colorado standout known as the “Tasmanian Devil” for his relentless motor is all ears these days in the Denver Broncos’ meeting room.

“I have to get in where I fit in. Right now, that’s learning and listening and being quiet,” Lindsay said on the first day of rookie orientation May 11. “My place is to listen to the veterans and coaches and take what they want and establish it on the football field.”

That also means lining up wherever the Broncos want him to line up. He’s willing to return kickoffs and punts, play special teams, become a situational running back, even line up as a slot receiver — anything to make this roster.

He’s got a solid chance, especially given this: At least one rookie college free agent has made the Broncos’ active roster out of training camp in 13 of the last 14 years, including Pro Bowl cornerback Chris Harris in 2011.

“I’m just going to showcase everything,” Lindsay said.

Being from Denver, Lindsay gets asked all the time by his fellow rookies about his city. He’s sort of Denver’s first ambassador, along with rookie offensive lineman Sam Jones, who’s a sixth-round pick out of Arizona State and also hails from the Mile High City.

“A lot of times they think (Denver) is just cold,” Lindsay said. “Now, they get to see it’s dry, it’s hot. It’s beautiful.”

It didn’t take long for Lindsay to have his first welcome-to-pro-football moment by simply walking into the locker room.

“It’s like, `Dang, it’s really here,”` Lindsay said. “Now it’s time for me to go and seize the moment.”

While with the Buffaloes, Lindsay was an integral piece of the offense as he recorded back-to-back 1,000yard rushing seasons. The 5-foot-8, 190-pound running back brought an edge and intensity to the backfield, but didn’t get selected in the recent draft.

Still, he feels like he landed in a good situation with his hometown team.

Lindsay joins a backfield that counts Devontae Booker as its veteran after severing ties with C.J. Anderson.

Royce Freeman was drafted in the third round out of Oregon to play a big role as well.

Lindsay and Freeman are two Pac-12 tailbacks Jones saw plenty of while at Arizona State.

“I’m excited to wear the same jersey as him and Phil now, instead of having them run all over our defense,” Jones said. “We can run all over somebody else.”

Lindsay impressed the Broncos brass and coaching staff at his pro day by turning in a time of 4.39 seconds in his 40-yard dash. He also shined at the Shrine Game, where he drew some comparisons to New England running back James White.

“But I don’t want to be like anybody else,” Lindsay said. “I want to be like Phillip Lindsay, establishing myself with special teams and getting into the playbook as a running back. ... I’m happy to be a part of the team and I’m ready to get things going.”

Public notices are a community’s window into the government. From zoning regulations to local budgets, governments have used local newspapers to inform citizens of its actions as an essential part of your right to know. You know where to look, when to look and what to look for to be involved as a citizen. Local newspapers provide you with the information you need to get involved.

Notices are meant to be noticed. Read your public notices and get involved!
