Dirt Coffee set to open storefront off Main Street Company is path to employment for people with autism

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Daniel Boone said he feels like Santa Claus at work.

“We go around and bring happiness to people,” Boone said, wearing his trademark conductor’s hat as he served up java from the window of the Dirt Coffee van. “It’s more than serving coffee. I serve smiles.”

Dirt, the famous Littletonbased coffee operation that trains and employs people with autism, is moving into its first brick and mortar store this spring, set to open in early May in an old home at 5767 S. Rapp St., just west of Arapahoe Community College.

Dirt, the brainchild of executive director Lauren

Daniel Boone, a longtime Dirt Coffee employee, said making people happy by serving them coffee makes him feel like Santa Claus. Dirt, a van-based coffee company which trains and employs people who are on the autism spectrum, will open its first brick-and-mortar shop in May. DAVID GILBERT Burgess, has been serving up brews from its van since 2013.

Since then, the outfit has employed 32 people with autism — members of a demographic that experiences 90 percent

unemployment or underemployment, Burgess said.

“That’s not because people with autism don’t want a job or don’t have the skills,” Burgess said. “It’s because

our community doesn’t yet recognize individuals with autism as being employable.”

Dirt has already endeared the community to its employees, Burgess said, and she hopes to expand the relationship with a bigger operation.

“Our shop is meant to be a starting place not only for people with autism to get job experience, but also through our coffee sales to connect with the community to show them people with autism are as capable as anyone,” Burgess said.

The experience has meant a lot to Boone, who was the company’s employee of the year in 2016.

“This is my first job,” Boone said. “I’ve learned to make lattes, mochas, all that good stuff.”

Students from TACT — or Teaching the Autism Community Trades — finished the inside of the building, said Amanda Therrien, a TACT teacher.

I grew up in Littleton and graduated from Arapahoe High School in 2010.

After high school, I went to the Colorado School of Mines. I earned a bachelors in chemical engineering with a minor in business economics.

I was a member of the Beta Theta Pi Fraternity and I also played on the

men’s rugby and volleyball teams.

I was commissioned and became an officer in the Navy in 2014.

In 2012 when I was a sophomore at Mines, I got picked up by the Navy Nuclear Propulsion Officer Candidate (NUPOC) program. After I graduated from Mines, I received a commission from Officer Candidate School. Then I went to nuclear power school and prototype school in Charleston, South Carolina. After completing those schools, I got assigned to Pre-Commissioning Unit Colorado, which became the USS Colorado on March 17. I served as the electrical assistant and reactor controls assistant through the new construction program, and now I’m serving as the communication officer and assistant engineer.

“Until someone has the opportunity to show you what they’re capable of, they might not even know themselves,” Therrien said, adding that students were thrilled by the outcome.

Burgess said the shop will offer a wide range of coffee, as well as wine, beer on tap, and paninis. She hopes to train and employ 50 to 100 people with autism in the first year, both through direct employment and paid internships.

Though longtime customers will still be able to catch the coffee truck at farmer’s markets, she hopes folks will come meet her friends as they blossom in the new shop.

“People with autism are incredible humans,” Burgess said. “They’re authentic, they’re smart, they’re funny.

Columbine Square demolition enters final phase Remaining buildings torn down; owners silent on future of site

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Excavators tore into the remaining buildings at the long-derelict Columbine Square shopping center at Federal Boulevard and Belleview Avenue on April 2, bringing to an end a years-long saga that frustrated neighbors and city officials as the buildings decayed and drew squatters and crime.

The first round of demolition in February removed three structures on the site, but four others remained while workers removed or contained asbestos materials, according to information published on the city’s website.

Demolition is expected to take about two weeks.

The demolition was set in motion early this year, after an early morning fire completely destroyed one building on the site on Jan. 3. The fire is believed to have been started by squatters lighting a warming fire, investigators said in January.

Public outcry after the fire spurred the site’s owners, Redwood-Kairos Real Estate Partners, to begin demolition nearly four years after the final businesses were shuttered in 2014.

Redwood-Kairos and its CEO, Carl Chang, did not respond to requests for comment.

Redwood-Kairos hired Sundance Mountain Development, owned by Littleton resident Frank Melara, in February to develop the site.

Melara confirmed his involvement in February but has since ceased responding to requests for comment.

Neither Sundance nor RedwoodKairos have submitted any plans to the city for the site, said Littleton Community Development Director Jocelyn Mills.

Leveling the site is an achievement in itself, said Dave Neumyer, a project manager with Earth Services Abatement, the company that removed the asbestos in the buildings and demolished the shopping center.

“We’re glad to put this public nui-

Excavators from Earth Services Abatement tear into the remaining structures of the long-vacant Columbine Square Shopping Center on April 3. The buildings sat empty since 2014, drawing transients, vandalism and other unwanted activity.

DAVID GILBERT sance on the ground and walk away with a clean slate,” Neumyer said.

Earth Services needed a special permit to remove the rubble of the burned building, because the asbestos materials were torn to shreds rather than still in place like in surviving buildings, Neumyer said. They’ll use an excavator specially outfitted with hoses that spray chemicals to help contain wind-borne asbestos particles, he said.

Though the site’s owners remain incommunicado on the site and its future, some clues come from drafts of the Belleview Corridor Plan, a strategic planning document prepared for the city by a consulting firm and presented to the public at an open house meeting on March 22.

The cost of redeveloping Columbine Square “will likely be high,” the draft reads in part, “which will most likely require an increase in the density of use to make redevelopment feasible.”

The report says retail can be an important component of the redevelopment, but says “redevelopment of the site back into a stand-alone retail center is likely not feasible. A mixture of uses is likely necessary to make it an attractive redevelopment project for investors.”

Successful retail could include “neighborhood-oriented offerings such as specialty food stores, convenience goods, and restaurants,” the report says.

Columbine Square, as well as O’Toole’s Garden Center to the south, occupy the city’s sole remaining urban renewal district, which could help facilitate the creation of “public/ civic amenities that could make the area into a gathering place on the corridor,” the report says.

Built in 1976, Columbine Square housed numerous businesses through the years, including a Safeway, several bars and restaurants, and Littleton

Preparatory School. The site was shuttered in 2014 after years of spotty tenancy.

The demolition of the old buildings is a bittersweet moment for Dorreen Strnad, who spent a lot of time at Columbine Square in its heyday.

“I went on dates at the Littleton Grill there with a guy in high school, and later I worked there,” Strnad said. “On my wedding day, I got my hair done at a salon at Columbine Square. I worked as a bartender at a pool hall there. It was a small neighborhood place — everyone was friends.”

Strnad said the demolition of the buildings brought an irreversible finality to her memories.

“You can’t undo it now,” Strnad said. “I stood outside the fence this morning and watched them crush up the buildings, and I remembered everything that was in there. But it’s the wave of the future — you’ve got to progress.”

Englewood arcade associates arrested by Denver police Investigation, raids led to arrest of three connected to stalled Golden Dragon

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Englewood residents woke up one October morning last year to find fliers on their doors announcing the impending opening of a new business, with images of video-arcade games that pay cash to players.

In the following days, the Golden Dragon Arcade Games storefront on South Broadway, adorned with a “coming soon” banner, saw its planned “opening day” come and go without opening — and with only an indignant poster added to the lit-up doors alleging that improper actions by the City of Englewood had kept the business from opening.

Now, partners associated with that arcade, whose group billed similar businesses as “mom and pop shops,” face up to a collective hundreds of counts related to illegal gambling after being arrested March 27 by Denver police — following raids of three related businesses that same day, two of which saw raids before on Oct. 4.

But the laws that authorities say prohibit so-called “skill-games arcades,” some argue, are far from clear — despite investigations around the state dating to at least 2015 — and could soon get an update.

An association representing arcade gaming in several Colorado cities — of which Tammy Garamova, one of those arrested, is a leader — argues that a proposed state law to clarify Colorado gambling law, which the association opposes, proves the businesses are innocent.

“The Association has repeatedly made one very important point,” wrote Chris Howes, executive director of the Colorado Skill Games and Entertainment Association, in a statement.

If “officials are so certain that the current Colorado law is clear enough to seize property at members’ arcade locations, then why is House Bill 1234 necessary?”

Whether it’s the authorities, or the arcades, who have the law on their side depends on a story that unraveled over several years and in several Colorado cities.

‘They get ahead of themselves’ In Englewood, Golden Dragon Arcade Games on South Broadway was the city’s first known brush with what an attorney for owner Bagrat Garamov said are “games of skill,” not chance.

The City of Englewood sent Garamov an email the morning of Oct. 12 that said the city cannot process Golden Dragon’s sales and use tax-license application without a letter from the Colorado Division of Gaming to confirm that its devices don’t conflict with state gambling law. The tax license is part of what would have allowed Golden Dragon, at 4011 S. Broadway, to operate in Englewood.

The front of American Pride Skill Games at 10890 E. Dartmouth Ave. in Denver, April 6. Its owner, Bagrat Garamov, also tried to open Golden Dragon Arcade Games in Englewood in October, but the City of Englewood said the business needed verification from the state Division of Gaming to confirm it didn’t conflict with state gambling law. ELLIS ARNOLD The email included a copy of a letter dated Sept. 25 from the city, notifying Garamov of the need for confirmation from the Division of Gaming to process its tax license and amusement-license applications.

Garamova, the owner’s wife, said she never received that letter. The city said

it was not returned as undeliverable.

Golden Dragon also lacked an inspection by the fire marshal’s office, which the city needs to issue a certificate of occupancy.

The halting of the Golden Dragon’s opening — which was advertised for Oct. 13 — came just a week after the Oct. 4 raids by Denver police of La Fortuna and American Pride Skill Games, two similar businesses Garamov had ownership in, related to suspicion of illegal gambling. Those businesses are in west Denver at 9 S. Federal Blvd. and in southeast Denver at 10890 E. Dartmouth Ave., respectively.

“It’s fair to say that they get ahead of themselves,” said Dan Rowland, a former official with the Denver Department of Excise and Licenses, in October.

La Fortuna had a pending application for a license to run an amusement facility, but American Pride had no such records in the department, Rowland said at the time, when he worked there.

Sheridan Skill Games LLC, another entity Garamov owns at 2544 Sheridan Blvd., had a pending amusement-license application. That business and the Dartmouth Avenue location had use tax and occupational-privilege tax accounts — through the city, La Fortuna had only the latter, Rowland said — as of February.

The Sheridan Boulevard location, which opened on Nov. 11 without an amusement license and called itself El Dorado Skill Games, applied for the license Sept. 26 and was awaiting a fingerprint review as of Feb. 26, according to the City of Denver. La Fortuna — called GBE LLC in filings — applied for a license May 31 but still needed to pass a fire inspection, according to the City of Denver. A Fox 31 Denver KDVR story examined how games worked at La Fortuna May 10.

Meg Dubray, public-relations representative for the association that includes Howes and Garamova, said the business was not aware of updated license requirements.

American Pride tried to apply for such a license years prior, but Rowland’s office said the business didn’t need one because it had fewer than five arcade devices and computers didn’t count, according to Dubray. La Fortuna opened November 2016, and American Pride opened March 2015.

Dubray said law enforcement decided to intentionally “sit on the application process and leave the entertainment license in limbo” for El Dorado, adding that Garamov passed all inspections necessary aside from the pending fingerprint review.

An attorney for Garamov, Jan Douglass, said a detective with Denver police — Daniel O’Bannon, who started the investigations into the businesses — told Garamova, “You will never see a license until we determine these games aren’t slot machines, which we know they are.” That happened at the Oct. 4 raid of La Fortuna, Douglass said.

Denver police declined to answer a question about whether that happened, citing the ongoing investigation into the businesses.

But the conflict has also been played out in the courts.

‘Arbitrary and capricious’ Garamov brought legal action against the City of Englewood in a complaint in Arapahoe County District Court dated Nov. 7 over the city’s stopping of Golden Dragon’s application.

“We believe our rights have been violated,” Garamova said in October about Englewood’s halting of the application process. The move was “arbitrary and SEE ARCADE, P8

Familiar names push back against fire merger Veterans of previous political battles take issue with proposal

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Familiar faces in Littleton politics came out swinging against the city’s effort to see Littleton Fire Rescue absorbed by South Metro Fire Rescue at the April 3 city council meeting, taking umbrage at the tenets of a draft contract between the agencies and at how the effort has been conducted thus far.

A bevy of regulars at city council meetings laid out their concerns with the plan, a version of which was up for first reading at the meeting. A public hearing on the measure, a “preinclusion agreement,” will be held at the April 17 city council meeting.

If approved, the agreement would be a step toward Littleton voters seeing a ballot measure this November that, if passed, would effectively dissolve Littleton Fire Rescue and allow South Metro Fire Rescue to expand its boundaries to cover Littleton — a measure called the “inclusion plan.” South Metro charges a rate of 9.25 mills for fire coverage, which translates to a roughly $120 a year property tax increase on a home valued at $370,000.

If the measure fails at the ballot, Littleton would begin contracting with South Metro for fire coverage starting in January 2019 anyway, with Littleton footing the bill from its coffers.

Subsequent votes would be held in attempts to gain voter blessing of the inclusion plan.

History lesson The merger effort kicked off last November, after Highlands Ranch Metro District and Littleton Fire Protection District — areas surrounding the city that contract with the city for fire service — announced they were terminating their contracts with Littleton effective at the beginning of 2019. The announcement left Littleton scrambling for solutions to the departure of two sizable districts that provided economies of scale to the city’s firefighting force.

Littleton City Council decided to pursue inclusion with South Metro after examining alternatives such as inclusion with West Metro Fire Rescue, contracting with Denver Fire, and keeping Littleton Fire Rescue as a standalone district. The other options fell away after a rundown of the numbers: West Metro charged a higher mill levy rate for coverage and did not share a largely

contiguous border with the city; Denver Fire operates at a lower level of service and would not offer inclusion; and a standalone district would necessitate a mill levy increase while decreasing level of service.

Fey reaches out Councilmember Carol Fey — who has consistently expressed or voted in opposition to the merger plan as proposed since being seated on council — sent out an email from her personal email address the morning of the April 3 meeting, imploring recipients to attend the meeting and speak up against the effort.

“This change in fire coverage is being done because the firefighters believe they will be treated better by South Metro Fire District than they have been by Littleton,” Fey’s email read in part. “City Council, in its ongoing effort to honor firefighters and their management, will vote to give the firefighters what they want. The problem is that Council did not consider how much it will cost the taxpayers, or if equal or better service could be obtained at a lower cost from other fire districts.”

Address of grievances Those who turned out for the public comment portion were a sort of who’s who of previous political battles in Littleton, with many having previously been active in fights against urban renewal and development efforts.

Linda Knufinke alleged that South Metro, a large consolidated fire rescue district covering much of the south metro area, actually handles a lower number of calls than the city of Littleton and has a higher cost per call.

Mayor Debbie Brinkman pushed back after Knufinke’s comment, saying that she was using inaccurate and out-of-date numbers.

Paul Bingham called the preinclusion measure premature and overly generous to South Metro, criticizing the plan for what he characterized as handing over fire equipment and stations without adequate mechanisms for getting them back should the plan go south.

Gloria Shone called the November ballot measure plan unfair, because the city will end up dismantling its fire service either way.

Patrick Fitzgerald had perhaps the night’s most scathing comments, accusing councilmembers Karina Elrod, Kyle Schlachter and Patrick Driscoll of “illegal electioneering” before last November’s city council election, citing sizable donations from the firefighters’ union to each of the candidates, and the announcement of the departure

of the fire partners only days after the election.

Don Bruns criticized the contract’s language, saying he felt it did not specify that citizens would experience improved service.

David Eberhard echoed Fitzgerald in saying he perceived a conflict of interest between councilmembers who support the merger and their campaign donors.

Pam Chadbourne, perhaps council’s most regular commenter, said she felt citizens had not seen adequate evidence that the merger was a good decision.

Carol Brzeczek, who ran against Schlachter and Elrod in last fall’s four-way race for at-large council seats, felt the contract is slanted too heavily in favor of South Metro.

Frank Atwood said council should be beholden to city residents over “special interests.”

Marty Bolt said he felt public hearings should have been scheduled for far earlier than the second reading of the preinclusion ordinance.

Blowback to comments Brinkman pushed back against the commenters in a rare instance of response to public comment.

“I heard so many things that were inaccurate, and I think it’s an unfortunate event that that level of inaccuracy is what’s out there right now,” Brinkman said. “It’s incumbent on us to make sure the correct information becomes available and that there’s a better opportunity to view the facts and data from reality.”

Fey moved to table the motion regarding the pre-inclusion contract and to discuss it at the April 10 study session. The motion was defeated, with no votes from councilmembers Jerry Valdes, Patrick Driscoll, Kyle Schlachter and Mayor Brinkman. Councilmember Karina Elrod was absent.

The final drama of the meeting came as Fey took the floor and said she wanted to tell “the story of how we got to where we are now” with the fire merger.

Brinkman cut Fey off, saying that her statements were inappropriately timed, as the ordinance was only on first reading and was scheduled for a public hearing in two weeks.

“I respect your position and I will note that I have been shut down as a council member,” Fey said. “I believe all council members have equal voice and you have chosen to put your voice ahead of mine.”

The full pre-inclusion contract is available online for review in the city council packet for the April 3 meeting at littleton. ompnetwork.org.

Zoo welcomes baby Sumatran orangutan STAFF REPORT

A baby Sumatran orangutan was born March 25 at the Denver Zoo. Named Cerah (Che-rah), which means “bright” in Indonesian and is often used to refer to sunshine, the female animal was born to mom Nias (Nee-uhs) and dad Berani (buhrAH-nee). Her birth was natural and uneventful, and both mom and baby are in good health, according to a zoo news release. They are behind the scenes to give them time to rest and bond, and to allow zoo staff to make sure Cerah is receiving proper care and nourishment from Nias.

Nias is 29 years old and arrived at the Denver Zoo in 2005. Berani is 25 years old and arrived in 2017.

The two were paired under recommendation by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ Species Survival Plan program, which oversees the population management of select species in association member institutions and enhances conservation of those species in the wild. The coupling proved to be a fast success, as Nias and Berani met in July 2017 and conceived Cerah less than a month later.

With a worldwide population estimated at only 14,600, Sumatran orangutans are classified as critically endangered on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species.

Cerah is expected to make her debut in the next few weeks in the Great Apes exhibit in Primate Panorama.

ARCADE

Police also arrested Eduard Gugulyan, Garamov’s partner in GBE LLC, on suspicion of 15 counts related to improper shipping or receiving of slot machines, 15 counts of possession of a gambling device or record, one count of professional gambling, one count of maintaining gambling premises and two counts related generally to unauthorized gambling operations.

Gugulyan and Garamov show the same date of birth, June 20, 1979, in arrest documents.

The City of Denver sent cease-anddesist letters dated March 23 addressed to Garamov, Garamova and Gugulyan ordering them to stop operating La Fortuna, American Pride and El Dorado without valid amusement licenses.

The investigation into La Fortuna and American Pride began in May 2017. Police raided the three locations March 27.

capricious,” Douglass said at the time.

The case had not moved forward as of April 3, and if Golden Dragon’s attorney for that case doesn’t file something

by April 12, the court will dismiss the case, according to the 18th Judicial District.

At the core of the legal action was, in part, whether Colorado’s gambling laws apply to the business.

Garamov and Garamova — her name ends with an “A” in Colorado Secretary of State documents but not in Denver arrest documents — both were arrested on suspicion of 99 counts each. Those include 46 counts related to improper shipping or receiving of slot machines, 46 counts of possession of a gambling device or record, one count of professional gambling, two counts of maintaining gambling premises and four counts related generally to unauthorized gambling operations.

as possible concerns for unregulated gambling environments.

The Golden Dragon’s legal action against Englewood argued the business’s games involve skill, speed or endurance and thus do not qualify as gambling under state law. It also argued that Colorado’s laws regarding simulated gambling are unconstitutionally vague.

One part of a law regarding simulated gambling was declared unconstitutionally vague by the El Paso County District Court on June 21, but Denver police’s arrests are not based on that simulated-gambling statute.

In recent years, similar businesses in Delta, Evans, Pueblo, Colorado Springs and Denver have seen raids by law enforcement. In 2015, the state Legislature passed a bill aimed at curtailing gambling at internet cafes, or “sweepstakes” cafes, and five businesses were ordered shut down by Mesa County in the Grand Junction area, the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel reported. The law is House Bill 15-1047.

In February 2015, a business entity

called Internet Cafe Dartmouth, registered to Garamova, gave a lobbying firm $20,000 in opposing the sweepstakes bill, according to filings with the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office.

Cafe Cherry, an internet cafe that opened in 2013, was run by Garamov at the same address as the American Pride arcade. It closed after the law passed, which outlawed operations where customers engaged in sweepstakes that the bill said amounts to simulated gambling.

The skill-games association has described itself as made up of “mom and pop” shops in news releases and responses to questions.

Similar arcades have opened in Commerce City and Aurora in recent years.

Palace Skill Arcade is listed in state filings at 7045 Pecos St. in Adams County near Westminster.

Schools, road funds see gains as budget advances Bill moves to committee; disturbing findings in harrasment study

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Colorado state Senate approved a $28.9 billion state budget — about $2 billion more than last year’s — over opposition from only four Republicans and four Democrats. The 26-8 vote on April 5, with one senator absent, pushed the plan to conference committee, where differences between the House and Senate versions will be ironed out.

Increasingly favorable forecasts for Colorado’s economy greased the wheels for several noteworthy spending measures, with the state’s generalfund revenues projected to grow 12.9 percent for fiscal year 2017-18 — a $1.3 billion increase, for a $11.6 billion total — and 3.2 percent for 2018-19, according to state estimates.

Strong economic growth and changes in federal tax policy set the state up to take in more revenue.

Notable measures in the budget included an additional $5 million for affordable-housing construction grants and loans, an additional $3 million from the Marijuana Tax Cash Fund for substance-use disorder

services and $2 million for mental-health training for police officers.

Report Educators will be pleased to see a $150 million boost to K-12 school funding, which House Democrats in a news release called “the biggest buydown since what used to be called the ‘negative factor’” — a budget-cut mechanism to school funding — started in 2009.

About $35 million for school-security grants in the wake of the Parkland, Florida, school shooting in February also made it through.

Capitol

More than one-fourth see harassment An outside report on the Legislature’s workplace environment found that 27 percent of the Capitol’s community — including lawmakers, staff, lobbyists, aides, interns and volunteers — said they’ve observed or experienced sexual harassment.

The April 2 report was done by Denver-based Investigations Law Group, whcih top lawmakers chose on Jan. 24 to conduct a review of the Capitol’s workplace-harassment policy, which includes rules on sexual misconduct.

The report gathered data from 528 survey responses collected in February. Most respondents who said they’ve observed harassment in general in the Legislature workplace said

SESSION IN HOME STRETCH The Colorado state Legislature, now about three-fourths of the way through its work season, has tackled some hefty spending measures, buoyed up by favorable economic forecasts.

Meanwhile, a report on workplace culture found a large number of people at the Capitol have experienced or witnessed sexual harassment, and that they’re uneasy with the reporting process.

The regular session — the 120-day term when bills can be passed — started Jan. 10 and will end in early May. they saw the behavior “several times.”

Of the respondents who have observed harassing behaviors in general — including harassment based on sex, sexual orientation, age, race, religion, disability and other categories — only 13 percent said they reported it. Fear to use the reporting process, harassment not being “severe enough,” not knowing the process and choosing not to report as a victim all were reasons respondents opted not to report.

Interview and survey respondents expressed desire for an independent human-resources body. The report recommended creating an Office of Legislative Culture to address the problems, which would handle complaint resolution and workplace training.

The office should have protections like funding and job protections to remain independent from political pressures, the report said.

Hitting the destination The long-drawn-out process to boost state transportation spending crossed a mile marker when it passed the Senate March 28 — with a unanimous 35-0 vote.

A $500 million one-time commitment based on current revenue gains in part allowed Republicans to avoid voting for new taxes.

“We got something done,” said Sen. John Cooke, R-Greeley, according to a news release by Senate Republicans.

“And that’s what matters. If the House listens to Coloradans’ needs, and the governor signs this bill, we will see more money flowing to Colorado’s roads than we have seen in decades, and it won’t raise taxes on a single individual, family or business.”

The proposal, Senate Bill 18-001, originally included a permanent 10 percent diversion of existing sales and use tax revenue for future spending, to which Democrats objected, fearing cuts to education and health-care programs. An amendment by Sen. Rachel Zenzinger, D-Arvada, did away with that, setting a maximum commitment of $250 million per year.

novel option under the bill: Voters can choose to pass a citizen-initiated ballot measure in 2018 to raise taxes, or, if that measure fails or isn’t on the ballot, they’ll vote on a measure in 2019 to pass a bond package.

As of 2016, Colorado carried a $9 billion need for additional transportation funding through 2025.

SB 18-001 was introduced in House April 3.

Pushing on PERA Senate Republicans passed what they called “sweeping new changes” to the state’s public-employee pension fund, which lawmakers say is somewhere between $30 billion and $60 billion underfunded.

Republicans outlined the issue as one Coloradans would have to bite the bullet on now, or face much

“Any actions we take now are understandably going to create concerns and cause hardship,” said Sen. Jack Tate, R-Centennial, according to a news release. “But these consequences will pale in comparison to what we’ll see if the pension program continues on the unsustainable path it’s on. We must act now to ensure that current and future employees have a sustainable retirement system that works for them.”

Doing nothing would threaten the state’s credit rating and put all beneficiaries at long-term risk, Tate said. The Public Employees’ Retirement Association program, or PERA, has been an increasingly dire issue for years.

The portion of public employees’ monthly salary that goes to the program — currently 8 percent — would increase to 11 percent for most members by 2020 if the bill passes.

It would temporarily freeze cost-ofliving adjustments for retirees and

The bill would also allow many local public employees to choose to participate in the defined-contribution plan, rather than the definedbenefits plan.

Conservative critics have argued PERA should transition from its current structure as a defined-benefits plan — in which the employer guarantees a specific retirement amount and bears the risk of promising the investment will be available — to a defined-contributions plan, like a 401(k), in which the employee chooses to fund the plan, which takes the risk off the employer, or in this case, the government. Democrats have preferred the defined-benefits system.

Senate, would define simulated gambling without an exception for “bona fide contests of skill, speed, strength or endurance” — meaning simulated gambling would include risking money or other value for gain that depends on skill, or in whole or in part upon chance.

It would “include devices that combine the elements of chance and skill, in accordance with the state Constitution,” according to the Legislature’s website.

Slot machines, including electrical or video machines that take tokens or payment according to the state Constitution, would be defined as a simulated-gambling device if results are determined by the skill of the player or the element of chance, or both, as the state Constitution outlines.

Devices that pay nothing of value and are not used for gambling would not qualify as a simulated gambling device under the bill.

The bill redefines “prize” such that prizes of tickets, or electronic coupons, that can’t be exchanged for money would not fall under the definition as it relates to simulated gambling.

Preparing for change, managing change and accepting change

A

s a frequent traveler I spend a lot of time on airplanes, in hotels, and in rental cars or Uber/Lyft rides. And I spend a lot of time in different cities around the world. With all of this travel, as with anything in life, comes change.

A change of vehicles, change WINNING of hotel rooms, a WORDS change of scenery, and overall changes to the systems we follow when we travel, like security and airline policy and procedure.

As someone who speaks about change quite a bit, Michael Norton I found the irony while I laughed at myself on my most recent trip. It was another hotel stay, at least my 30th night in a hotel this year, and just another room much like the rooms I had slept in for the past several years.

And as I got up and got ready to shower, I was faced with one more unique shower fixture. Almost no way to tell which way was hot and which way was cold, and no visible way to turn it from tub to shower mode.

My frustration gave way to laughter as I prayed that one day there would be a universal shower in all hotels everywhere around the world.

In that moment I was ready to make it my life’s work. And there I stood, examined the apparatus one more time, and figured it out, at last a hot morning shower.

Of course showers change, everything changes eventually. The team I was getting ready to go see was undergoing significant organizational change. They were also getting ready to change products and were launching a new technology. The executives and shareholders were all very excited about the changes, getting ready to launch their company into the next generation and level of success. The problem was the team expected to execute on the changes was not quite ready.

Not being ready caused fear and panic. Fear and panic fueled the rumor mill. The rumor mill perpetuated wrong information, and wrong information sent an entire workforce into paralysis. All the change that was getting to take place was in fact very good for the company and its customers. It was also going to be very good for the entire organiza

Finding common ground on issues of mental health

ut six Republicans and three Democrats on the same Denver stage, and you might not expect them to agree on anything. When it comes to improving mental health care, however, you can find common GUEST ground.

Nine candidates COLUMN shared a stage last week at Mental Health Colorado’s first-ever gubernatorial forum. The consensus: We ought to make it harder for people who pose a danger to themselves or others to get guns, Andrew Romanoff and easier for them to get treatment.

Those are two of the top priorities we’re urging the legislature to address this year. The first is called an extreme risk protection order; it would allow law enforcement officers to remove weapons from the homes of individuals at risk of suicide or violence.

Five states have already enacted such laws, and the approach seems to be working. No law can prevent every tragedy, but studies show that restricting access to firearms in these circumstances — even temporarily — reduces the likelihood of harm.

The laws require a court order and

appropriate regard for due process rights. With those provisions in place, the extreme risk protection order has earned the support of the National Rifle Association, among other organizations.

Every gubernatorial candidate at our forum signed on, and we’re asking the General Assembly to follow suit.

Mental Health Colorado is working with members of both parties to introduce and pass legislation this month.

To be clear, most people with mental illness are not violent; they are far more likely to be victims of crime than perpetrators. But for those at risk of suicide, a gun represents the most lethal means.

Suicides account for more than two-thirds of gun deaths in America, and an even higher share in Colorado.

More than 1,000 Coloradans die by suicide each year — a death toll this proposal can decrease.

Just as critical: access to treatment.

Each year, an estimated 35,000 Coloradans experience a mental health crisis that makes them gravely disabled or places them in imminent danger. That’s a conservative figure, based on the number of people who are subjected to involuntary holds.

Under current law, those holds can last for up to 72 hours.

But most don’t meet that standard, and many never get treatment. For some, the cycle of crisis simply repeats itself.

Dora Belle “Billie” Heck

April 17, 1932 – March 31, 2018

Dora Belle “Billie” Heck passed away on March 31, 2018. Billie was a wonderful friend to many and never met a person who remained a stranger for long. She was a master of the art of conversation and knew how to make each person feel valued and loved. Billie has a tremendous faith in God and she worked daily for over forty years at her ‘lessons” to improve her walk with God. Billie had a personality that was larger than life. She was happy, funny, loving, generous, tender, sassy, mischievous personality, but more than anything Billie celebrated being a wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.

Together with her husband of 68 years, Howard Heck, Billie created a beautiful family who adore her and that will always be her best legacy.

Born on April 17, 1932 to Marvin and Lois Portwood in Atlanta, Georgia, Billie was preceded in death by her parents, her brothers Gene and Marvin, and her sister Dorothy “Dot”. She is survived by her sister Catherine “Kitty” of Atlanta, Georgia.

Billie married Howard Heck from Nebraska in Brunswick, Georgia, April 17, 1949 on her birthday. Together they had five children: Howard Heck II (married to Karen), Mary Beezley (married to John), Marian Heck, Catherine Palazzari (married to Tony), and Wayne Heck.

Billie, Howard and their five children moved to Littleton, Colorado in July of 1961. They have resided in their present home for the past 56 years which continuously serves as the centerpeice of the family gatherings.

Billie had a wonderful imagination and invented numerous games to entertain and touch the heart of her family. She had a way of making ordinary days feel special. Billie will be happily remembered as the “Birthday Queen”, a very patriotic American and one terrific Mrs. Claus. Billie embodied the Christmas Spirit and she always wanted her family to cherish the Christmas season by transforming her home into the North Pole and instilling in each person the joy of giving. She was a true Matriarch whose presence will be greatly missed.

Billie’s memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on April 21 at St. James Presbyterian Church, 3601 W Belleview, Littleton, CO 80123. In lieu of flowers, please donate in Billie’s name to the charity of your choice.

tion. The breakdown in communication and preparation came when the company failed to make sure that all personnel were ready for the change.

Being ready for the change doesn’t mean that we need 100 percent buy-in before we change; being ready for the change means that we have thought everything out, prepared internal and external communications, alerted everyone to the changes that were coming and what the expectations were going to be, and gave them a format to ask questions about the change.

Left to our own imaginations, we can quickly determine that change is a bad thing, and sometimes see it as a very bad thing.

Now, managing change is still yet another part of the story. Once prepa-

ration and communication are met with expectation and explanation, we can start to better manage the change as it is happening.

It’s not time to think about measuring results of the change; the first thing we have to do is manage the behaviors that will drive the change.

When people clearly understand where the company and the product are going, they can then clearly see where their personal contribution can make a difference.

Accepting change happens. For some, like those of us staring at a brand-new shower fixture, it takes a little more time than others.

But sooner or later, whether we resist the change or not, the change will happen. As it has been said, the one constant regarding change is that change happens, and change will happen again.

The secret is following the first two paths mentioned above, change readiness and change management.

When we can become really good and efficient at both of those, change acceptance will be accelerated and the change will be successful.

Here is the best part of the shower story. As I stood there bewildered for a moment or two, I didn’t stop to think and appreciate all of the other changes to that particular hotel. The mattresses were all changed, the lobby and bar were upgraded and changed, the check-in process was changed and made easier than ever before.

Of course the shower fixture would have been changed too. I was ready for the changes I liked and could easily grasp, and I managed what was being changed as long as I saw the benefit to me, but I was slower in accepting the change that was just a little more difficult.

I still think a worldwide universal shower set up for all hotels is a brilliant idea, like maybe one of those really awesome showers found in the Netherlands.

So how about you? Whether you are looking at a change at work or home, are you ready for it? Do you know how you will manage it? And are you prepared for those impacted by the change to accept it? I would love to hear your personal story or your company story of change at gotonorton@ gmail.com. And when we recognize the role that readiness, management, and acceptance plays in effective change, it really will be a better than good week.

What’s new with you? I really would love to hear what’s new with you and your “new” story at gotonorton@ gmail.com. And when we can identify and appreciate the feeling of something new, it really will be a better than good week.

Day of note for record stores

I

Annual event brings vinyl fans in for rare releases

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

O

ne of the best things about the annual Record Store Day event, where local record stores all over the metro area open their doors to an intense rush of passionate music fans, is meeting people who share a passion for music.

“Record Store Day really feels like a community event,” said Chelsea Bashford, one of the employees at Arvada’s Black and Read book and music store. “You get a chance to meet other people who live in the area and love music just as much as you do.”

Record Store Day falls on Saturday, April 21, and as has become the trend in the nine years since the first day, this year will be bigger and busier than any that have come before.

“Record Store Day is by far our biggest day of the year,” said Paul Epstein, owner of Twist and Shout Records in Denver. “Every year Record Store Day becomes the biggest day in our history. We try to make it a fun event for everyone who comes in on the day.”

On Record Store Day, special vinyl, tape, CD releases and various promotional products are made available exclusively for the day.

These items include rare releases, never-before-heard songs and albums, and uniquely colored vinyl — in other words, a music collector’s dream.

“There are items every year that sell out super quickly, either because the musician has a lot of fans, or because the piece is really rare,” said Aaron Bogue, media buyer at Angelo’s CDs and More, which has locations on Broadway, East Colfax and in Aurora. “Those first 30 to 40 minutes are my favorite part, because you get to watch people go after a physical thing that means a lot to them.”

The annual day was created as a way to celebrate the world of record stores — not only owners, their employees and the musicians, but also customers who keep these local businesses alive at a time where so much of music is consumed via the internet.

Record Store Day encourages shoppers to celebrate their local stores, which are a vital part of

The power of story at 15th Vail Film Festival

t sounds like a cliché, but everyone has a story to tell. For most of us, that story is something we keep to ourselves, maybe because it’s too personal, too difficult to share, or something you think no one would be interested in.

There’s nothing wrong with keeping these stories to ourselves, but when someone decides to step forward and share their story, we should pay attention In my three days at COMING the 15th annual Vail ATTRACTIONS Film Festival, April 5-8, I met so many people who shared stories that were of vital importance and learned so much about subjects I would’ve never considered before.

In Kerry David’s documentary, “Bill Coors: The Will to Live” Clarke Reader I was shown a portrait of a man with a name every Colorado resident FOR FULL knows and discovered COVERAGE I didn’t know anything For full coverat all about him. And I age of the 15th was moved but what I annual Vail found.

In Molly McGlynn’s feature debut, “Mary Goes Round,” the writer/director and lead actress Aya Cash painted a vivid portrait of addiction, forgiveness, and the many surprising roads to empathy. And I was inspired by what I found.

That’s the power of sharing your story.

The festival has grown by leaps and bounds since it was first started by brothers Sean and Scott Cross, but its dedication to sharing stories that people otherwise wouldn’t be exposed to has never faltered.

“Independent films are labors of love, and getting audiences and filmmakers together is such a rare experience — one we wanted to provide,” Sean explained.

“It takes such a long time to make a film, and we wanted to do everything we could to support independent filmmakers.”

That commitment to the independent voices is evident throughout the weekend. Some of the most packed events are the ones where short films were being screened. At a screening on April 7, viewers were standing against the wall and sitting the aisles to see films like “The Invaders,” where theater actor Isra ElsaSEE READER, P20

Fashion is in style at Denver Art Museum Illustrations from artist’s long career will be displayed until early August

IF YOU GO “Drawn to Glamour: Fashion Illustrations by Jim Howard” will be on display on level two of the Denver Art Museum’s Hamilton Building through Aug. 5. It is included in general admission and free to members and youth under 18. The Denver Art Museum is at 13th Avenue and Bannock Street in downtown Denver and is open daily. Information: denverartmuseum.org.

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Jim Howard became emotional as he looked at the beautifully framed and exhibited fashion illustrations, created during his 40-year career.

“Drawn to Glamour: Fashion Illustrations by Jim Howard” is at the Denver Art Museum through Aug. 5.

Howard announced that he would donate the more than 100 works on paper to the Denver Art Museum.

The exhibit also has a group of fashions from the 1970s and 1980s — from the DAM collection and private lenders — displayed in a case.

Howard also spoke of his delight in being right next to the current Degas exhibit. The French artist has been an inspiration.

Curator of Textile Art and Fashion Florence Muller, who is happy about the addition to the fashion collection, said the “drawings were really telling you a story, although they were advertisements for a department store … Jim could create illustrations about clothes.” Howard didn’t feel he

Fashion Illustrator Jim Howard speaks about a selection of 100 of his drawings, created over a 40-year career. They are exhibited at the Denver Art Museum.

Howard, a Lakewood resident now, worked for Nieman Marcus and several major New York department stores when illustrations were used for advertisements, rather than photos.

was consciously telling stories, he said (“I was peddling clothes”), as he described a day at Nieman Marcus in

Dallas, then so important for highfashion merchandise.

He didn’t see a garment until it was in production, and his job was to create a drawing for newspapers or magazines that would bring customers to purchase or order it.

“There were eight models there and I’d sign up for one in the morning” and start drawing. “It’s probably the last time that happened in department store advertising.” Eventually, he took photos with a camera and drew from those, adding that he took “tons of life drawing classes in college” and the skill came easily — “I could draw both men and women … I started at the head and drew to the bottom — in that order,” he said. “I never dreamed I’d find them on the walls of a museum.” He is a Lakewood resident since 2002, after a post-retirement stay in New Mexico.

Asked what was his first drawing, ever, he remembered his childhood.

“I once did a self-published book in my early years. It was a drawing for school. (`In West Texas, Disney was big,’ he said wryly). It was a guy in a bathroom, with a kitty under the sink meowing for toothpaste to brush his teeth …” He also created a paper doll book with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, all in their underwear.

When asked: “What kept you going all those years?” he responded happily: “I consider myself the luckiest man on this planet. To do what I loved every day — getting paid for it.”

He first worked in a grocery store, he reminisced, where he drew pictures of cans, bread, bananas … before he started formal training in art. In the 1970s, he also designed and made his own clothes, he added.

are not institutionalized — and don’t need to be.

Colorado’s own experience, as well as that of other states, shows that proper treatment and support improve outcomes and lower the demand on hospitals, emergency rooms and the criminal justice system.

Turning our jails and prisons into warehouses for people with mental health or substance use disorders is the most expensive and least therapeu-

“At Nieman’s we were all so interested in a beautiful suit, we almost pulled it apart—concerned with construction.”

After a stint with Nieman Marcus, he moved to New York and worked for various department stores, including Saks Fifth Avenue, B. Altman, Bonwit Teller and Los Angeles-based Bullocks. His drawings ran in The New York Times, other papers and magazines.

“Fashion illustration as a craft has gradually disappeared in recent decades,” Muller said, “but from 1950 to 1989, it was the most significant way for brands to tell their story, showcase new trends and bring fashion to life ... It’s a medium of fashion history that has not yet been extensively explored by museums, and we hope this exhibition will allow our visitors to discover how drawing can be equally as, and sometimes more, expressive than fashion photography. We also hope visitors will gain an appreciation for Howard’s legacy and fashion illustration as a whole.”

Jane Burke, senior curatorial assistant of textile art and fashion, helped to organize the show, with drawings from the 1950s to the 1980s.

Included is a corner of portraits of fashion greats such as Coco Chanel and Yves St. Laurent, and there are many examples of Howard’s drawings of men’s fashions included in the collection — perhaps a bit less common, but testifying to Howard’s skills in drawing the human figure.

In more recent years, he has produced a series of books of high-style paper dolls, organized by decade.

He has designed all the clothes, hats and other accessories, although he is not trained as a designer. In a foreword, he talks about learning clothing construction from watching his mother sew when he was a child — and then in later years, designing and sewing clothes for himself. “Fabrics have always been a love of mine,” he says and he also cites an interest in historic clothing, “which inspired a few garments in this book.” These books are available for sale at $12 in the museum’s gift shop.

tic decision we can make.

The bottom line: It’s far cheaper, more effective, and ultimately more humane to treat mental illness than to ignore it or to criminalize it.

That’s a conclusion with which every candidate — and, we hope, a majority of our elected officials — can agree.

Andrew Romanoff is the president and CEO of Mental Health Colorado (www.mentalhealthcolorado.org), the state’s leading advocate for the prevention and treatment of mental health and substance use disorders. He served as the speaker of the Colorado House of Representatives.

Duffer Haus kicks in on Broadway One of several new businesses, sports bar features life-sized soccer-pool combination

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Like playing soccer? How about pool?

How about both?

A new business in the rapidly changing 3400 block of South Broadway — Englewood’s historic downtown — offers just that: a life-sized pool-table surface where players kick soccer balls into pockets like in billiards.

Duffer Haus opened at 3470 S. Broadway on March 31, featuring local art and an atmosphere not of a typical sports bar. Owner Brian Meadows said the block, which has seen a recent influx of new businesses, seemed like “an up-and-coming area.”

“I think it has a newer vibe almost, where Denver was almost 10 years ago,” said Meadows, who lives in Thornton. The “potential in Englewood seems unlimited. It does still kinda have that old-school feel.”

Just days in, Meadows said locals as well as people from Highlands Ranch and even the Thornton area came in to

Vincenza Licata, right, takes a shot at the life-sized soccer-pool game called gamböl at Duffer Haus April 4, as owner Brian Meadows watches. Licata handles marketing for the bar.

ELLIS ARNOLD check out the bar.

Meadows chose Englewood for his business partly because of the new apartments and businesses opening in that area of town.

“Local businesses have been extremely supportive,” said Mead-

ows, whose bar will soon feature an electronic dartboard enabling patrons to play against someone “across the country,” and pinball and shuffleboard are more possibilities.

A food truck from Wholly Cannoli offering Italian food makes appear-

ances out front, and foods like their pastries will eventually be offered in the bar, Meadows said.

The bar aims to add a kitchen in the back and start building it once it gets enough revenue, so Gaspare Licata, of Wholly Cannoli, can cook up more food.

“They’re bringing something new to (the Denver area),” said Tori Seibert, 41, from Lakewood. She loved that the bar features the soccer-pool game.

Two other nearby businesses — Samadhi Yoga and Peace Cellar, which features plants, jewelry, clothes and more — held openings in March, said Carrie Moore, owner of Peace Cellar.

Moore’s business relocated from a few blocks north on South Broadway.

Those sit on the 3400 block of that street.

More businesses that recently opened in the area include Aki Sushi at 3484 S. Broadway, The Tabletop Tap — a bar also offering board games and video games — at 3394 S. Broadway, and the bgood medicalmarijuana dispensary at 11 W. Hampden Ave. PokeCity Hawaiian restaurant has leased commercial space at the Broadway-Acoma Lofts near Englewood Parkway, and Evening Elegance, a women’s accessories, shoe, lingerie and home-goods store, has announced plans to open at 3356 S. Broadway, according to a city newsletter.

lihie plays a young woman who is followed on her way home.

“I try to bring my personal experiences into my characters, and for her, I wanted to focus on a positive thing to go after, instead of simply reacting to fear,” Elsalihie explained. “It’s really exciting being here for the world premiere, and to see the audiences’ reaction to the film for the first time.”

As Cross said, there’s an opportunity connect with filmmakers at the Vail Film Festival, an opportunity that most people don’t get to have, and the filmmakers are just as interesting, moving and funny as their creations.

Following the U.S. premiere of “Bill Coors: The Will to Live,” director and producer David, Coors biographer Margo Hamilton, and Coors’ oldest son Scott, shared stories about the making of the documentary, and the importance of giving a voice to those struggling with depression, anxiety

and suicidal thoughts.

“We need to be a voice for children all over the county and world who are struggling with these issues,” Hamilton said. “We need to stop being repulsed and repelled by their behavior and help them.”

The film is structured around his famous 1981 speech to the American Academy of Achievement, where he gave some astounding advice to high school students concerning mental health and a focus on self-love instead of material gain.

These were hard-learned lessons for Coors, as David delves into a past full of tragedy, depression and ultimately healing. Many of Coors’ challenges were completely unknown to me, and his breakthroughs in the area of employee healthcare and recycling were also revelations.

In the film, and in the question and answer session, it was Scott’s personal stories about life with his father that was the most moving. He spoke about coming out to his father on a drive to Aspen for Thanksgiving, and the empathy and understanding his father

gave him.

“I cry every time because I get to see him open up,” he said. “I still go see him every week and am so thankful to have that time with him.”

The filmmaking team is working on getting their work shown in schools, and local districts like Jefferson County will hopefully be among the first to see this story about a local family working to improve the world.

The festival was capped with an award ceremony on April 7, and among the winners were “Surviving Home,” a documentary from Matthew and Jillian Moul, that followed four generations of veterans over an eightyear period as they try to get back to civilian life following their times in the service, and “Mary Goes Round.”

“Mary” was my favorite film of the festival, with knock-out performances from Sara Waisglass, Melanie Nicholls-King, and especially Cash, who gives Mary’s flaws, sense of humor and underlying understanding vital life. She can break your heart with a look, and this is expert, lived-in acting, and paired with McGlynn’s assured filmmaking, it’s a film that you seek out.

Cash received the festival’s Excellence in acting award, and at several question and answer sessions

throughout the weekend displayed the insight and warm sense off humor that make her so impossible to ignore when she’s on screen.

“Just like everyone, I wanted to make a living as an actor, and that’s very hard. I wanted to buy toothpaste and coffee, and not have to pick one or the other,” she said with a laugh. “But I would tell aspiring actors to redefine success. There’s a way to make a living as an artist without selling your soul.”

It was impossible for myself and audiences to meet and interact with these artists and filmmakers and not come away motivated to step up and look out how to share our own stories.

And because of that, there’s no way the festival was anything other than a success for everyone.

“After our screening, I had a woman come up to me who said she’d been sober for 30 years, and that we got that story right,” McGlynn said. “If you can connect with someone you don’t know, in a different country and state, that’s everything.”

Shoppers wait in line at Twist and Shout Records with their Record Store Day purchases. The event is the biggest day of the year for most record stores, and employees are trained to make the process as smooth as possible.

make sure we have at least one copy of all the releases in all three of our stores,” Bogue said.

“It’s something people look forward to, and we want to do our best to ensure we have the releases.”

Some people line up hours before store openings, so if one is really interested in getting a particular release, arriving as early as possible is recommended. After 10 years, most record stores are experts at moving people through the process, but a little patience goes a long way.

“We try to spread stock out throughout the store so people aren’t all grouped in one place,” Bashford said. “There’s no holds or anything like that in advance, so it really is first come, first served.”

Despite some jostling when everyone is trying to get in, Epstein said that most people get what they’re in for. And even if not, there are so many quality releases that shoppers might discover something they didn’t even know they wanted.

“I got into this business because I’m a vinyl guy and a collector, so in that role, there are always some releases I’d like to get my hands on,” he said. “As a member of this community, Record Store Day is special because people go out of their way to support you and thank you for being around.”

TIPS FOR FIRST-TIME RECORD STORE DAY SHOPPERS

• Call the record store in advance to see what their hours are — many stores will be opening earlier than normal for the day.

• Visit www.recordstoreday.com/ SpecialReleases to find a full list of releases for the day. The list includes information about quantities pressed, which can help narrow down which items you want most.

• Bring cash, just in case credit card machines are down.

• Be friendly with the others in line.

Sometimes, a fellow shopper can keep an eye out for a release you really want. Two pairs of eyes are better than one.

• Try several record stores — stock and quantity vary, and if you missed an item at one store, it might be at another.

• Have fun — everyone is there because they love music.

Former NHL referee reflects on 1,629 games

PUSHING THE PACE

D

Arapahoe’s Reagan Bridges (13) pushes the ball past Rangeview defenders and toward the Ranger goal during the April 7 nonleague girls soccer game. The Warriors set the tempo of the action and won the game, 8-0. Camryn MacMillian was the leading scorer for the Warriors as she had three goals and two assists. Bridges scored a goal and an assist. Arapahoe moved to 6-2-1 overall and it has a 1-0-1 mark in league play.

STANDOUT PERFORMERS are six athletes named from south metro area high schools. Preference is given to those making their debut on the list.

To nominate an athlete, contact Jim Benton at jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com

ave Jackson, the former National Hockey League referee who lives in Highlands Ranch, grew up a fan of the Montreal Canadiens and admits he worshiped players like Guy Lafleur plus a horde of OVERTIME other great players he had the opportunity to watch play.

The Quebec native wanted to be an NHL player but realized as a 180-pound defensemen that his chances of become a headline player were slim, so instead he Jim Benton developed into one of the league’s top referees.

He worked his last game last month in Los Angeles when the Kings played the Arizona Coyotes and he isn’t sure yet what retirement has in store for him, but he plans to play hockey twice a week at South Suburban Ice Arena, mountain bike, snowboard and play a little golf in the meantime.

During the last month of his farewell tour around the league, coaches and captains would shake his hand and indicated they appreciated his service.

“It made me feel like I was respected,” said Jackson.

Jackson, 54, is the sixth NHL referee to work more than 1,500 games.

He called 1,629 regular-season and playoff games in his 25-year NHL career, but missed last season because of a hip injury.

He was 14 years old when he began officiating minor hockey in suburban Montreal. He called games in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.

His NHL debut was on Dec. 22, 1990 in Quebec City when the New Jersey Devils played the Quebec Nordiques.

Lafleur scored the only goal for the Nordiques in that game. He gained full-time NHL referee status in the summer of 1993.

Asked to describe his career, Jackson quickly said “longevity.”

He officiated in vintage arenas and new facilities, worked two All-Star games, refereed games in the Sochi Olympics, called the outdoor game between the Avalanche and Red Wings at Coors Field, created many friends inside and out of hockey and got to visit and explore cities in the United States and Canada.

Ashley Munoz drives a shot toward the goal during the Englewood girls soccer team practice as spring break winds up March 30. The Pirates have three non-conference games remaining on the schedule after spring break and start league play April 12.

TOM MUNDS

Pirates set to start league play

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

With spring break behind them, the Englewood High School girls soccer team moved quickly into action with the first of three non-league games April 2 as they continue preparation for the start of play against league opponents.

“I feel we will be a competitive team this season, even though our seven senior starters graduated in May,” Pirates coach Chris Kavinsky said.

“We have talented players moving up from junior varsity as well as the players who saw varsity playing time last season, including our two seniors.”

Kavinsky said he is pleased with the team’s start.

“We are 1-3 so far this season,” he said during the March 30 practice.

“We lost a tough overtime game to St. Mary’s and then played Grand Junc-

tion and Prospect Ridge, both very good soccer teams. The fact we have so many new players in the lineup, I am pleased with our overall play and I am very pleased with how our girls are learning to play together as a team.

We will play hard this season and win games. Also, our players will get a lot of varsity experience so we will be an even better soccer team next season.”

The coach said his team will be talented in all areas.

“Our goalie is a letter winner who was in goal for us last year and we also have a solid defensive line ahead of her,” he said. “Our midfield is solid and we have a good attack line.”

Megan Trail is a returning letter winner who will be on the attack line this season.

“I have been playing soccer since I was about 7,” she said. “I run cross country and play basketball but soccer is my favorite sport. I think I like it best because it is always fast-paced action and you have to play both offense and defense. I guess I like being on attack because I like to score goals.”
