PL E ASE RECYCLE

“Amazing.”

That word was how Englewood High School alumni Jenna Pacheco described the Pirates Sept. 25 homecoming activities.

“We came to visit family this week when I found out about homecoming,” the 1998 graduate said. “It is my first homecoming since graduation, and it really turned out to be very, very special.”

She said the parade was about the same as it was in ‘98, when she marched with the band. She did say some of the floats were pretty cool.

The activities switched to Englewood High School Stadium as the sun was going down and the Pirates were preparing to play Elizabeth.

Pacheco said she was touched by the pregame ceremony honoring 1992 EHS graduate Sean Renfro, who became a police officer and was killed in the line of duty earlier this year.

Members of the coaching staff and administration met with Renfro’s family at midfield and presented them with a framed No.77 jersey, which is the number Renfro wore playing for the Pirates.

Englewood City Council candidate forum set League of Women Voters hosts Oct. 7 event

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia. com Residents have the opportunity to hear where city council candidates stand on a variety of issues during the Oct. 7 forum hosted by the League of Women Voters of Arapahoe and Douglas

Counties.

The forum will be held from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Oct. 7 in the community room on the second floor of the Englewood Civic Center at 1000 Englewood Parkway. The event is open to the public and there is no charge for admission.

“The forum will follow the standard procedures,” Marilu Bagnall, league member, said.

“League members will moderate the event, and members of the audience can submit questions for the candidates by writing

them on cards distributed at the event. The moderator will review the questions and ask as many of them as time allows. All candidates will have the opportunity to answer each question.”

Englewood voters will elect four members to the city council in November. Seats include a representative from District 1, a representative from District 3 and two at-large representatives.

Three of the seats will be filled by new members. Incumbents Mayor Randy Penn and coun-

cil member Jill Wilson decided not to seek another term on the council, and council member Bob McCaslin could not seek reelection because of term limits.

The fourth incumbent, District 1 council member Joe Jefferson, is seeking re-election and is unopposed.

Three candidates are running for the District 3 position: Laurette Barrentine, Lewis Fowler and John Grazulis.

Finding the poetry in teaching Editor’s note: This is the first of an occasional series about Judy Racine, who will retire at the end of this school year after 40 years of teaching.

The gang of second- and thirdgraders tumbles in from recess with an effervescent energy that bounces through the low-ceilinged room.

“Yay!” Tim pumps a fist into the air.

“We’re doing poetry! I love poetry!”

Judy Racine folds her long, lanky body onto a short stool at the edge of a circular rug.

“Let’s scrunch up close here,” she says.

“Sit down on your bottoms. I need to see your faces. Come close.”

The kids settle into a crooked ring, kneeling, sitting, listening to Judy read poems about fruits and vegetables written by last year’s students, discussing their favorite words and lines.

Behind Judy is paper pad with the words I can explain what poetry means to me.

“What does that mean?” she asks.

“What is this learning target going to ask you to do?”

Arms dart into the air.

“Write something beautiful,” Gage says, “and not too long and not too short.”

Which is how you could describe what happens in this room: Never-ending poems that tell stories — not too long and not too short — of revelation and wonder and a hunger for knowledge instilled by a teacher.

That is, incontrovertibly, beautiful.

•••• Judy, as her students call her, is 64. She plans to retire at the end of this school year, after 40 years in education.

The daughter of a dairy farmer in a small town in Devon, a county in southwest England known for its countryside and seashores, she stumbled into teaching.

She left school at 16, as many did then who didn’t qualify for advancedlevel schooling, and soon after took a bus to London searching for direction.

She worked short stints as a hospital

receptionist and at a children’s charity and traveled throughout Europe.

“When you’re a teen, you want to get away,” she says. “And I needed a different adventure in my life.”

At 21, she won a full scholarship to a Ann Macari teaching college and Healey four years later began teaching fourthgraders at a primary school with a group of other new teachers.

“It was the blind leading the blind,” she remembers. “We didn’t know what to do.”

But she learned.

“You figure it out by doing it,” Judy says. “You figure it out by watching great teachers teach. That’s how you figure it out. And you have each other.”

The reason she stayed so long in the classroom is easy: The kids.

“Their experiences are new every day,” she says. “You see their eyes and their wonder and how they open up to learning.

It’s cool. It’s like watching a seed grow.”

She is, however, ready to wind up this chapter, not only to explore new experiences, but also because the state of teaching has changed so drastically.

Education today is boxed by too many rules, too many tests, she says. It has lost some of its vitality, some of its foundational ingredients.

Take, for instance, something as basic as recess: Up to 40 percent of U.S. school districts have reduced or eliminated recess to free up more time for academics, and one in four elementary schools no longer provides recess to all grades, according to a 2010 Gallup survey.

To Judy, that’s a big deal.

“Play is the engine that drives learning,” she says. And children “need to experience play through their learning.

I’ve always considered that super important.”

At Rocky Mountain School of Expeditionary Learning, where she’s taught for 20 years, Judy found a place

The school, tucked in a south Denver neighborhood, is supported by five school districts — Aurora, Cherry Creek, Denver, Douglas County and Littleton — and the nonprofit Public Education and Business Coalition.

It incorporates the principles of Outward Bound into its curriculum, which is built around multidisciplinary learning expeditions that take students at least once a week on in-depth field trips — or expeditions — and culminate in a project that pulls all the learning together.

“I can still be creative and inspire,” Judy says. “I can still plan content that’s not test-driven...that’s instilling curiosity.”

NEWS IN A HURRY Chromebooks galore Students at all LPS middle schools were able to check out a Chromebook for use at school and at home throughout the year.

As schools utilize an increasing number of digital textbooks and resources, it is more and more important for students to have to access to online curriculum and projects anytime, anywhere. Littleton Public Schools has deployed more than 3,100 Chromebooks to middle school students as a part of this program.

Leonard earns recognition Mimi Leonard, coordinator for career and technical education at Littleton Public Schools, was one of three people recently inducted into the Colorado Association of Career and Technical Education Hall of Fame.

Leonard has served in her current position for 10 years and was an LPS teacher for 20 years prior to that. She is the incoming president of the Colorado Association of Career and Technical Administrators and serves on the national board of the Technology Student Association. She also finds time to teach at Arapahoe Community College and Colorado State University.

Pirates band stages amazing show Halftime performance blends music, marching, dancing, flags

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com The blast of the horn from the scoreboard announced a musical marching performance was about to replace the football action at the Englewood High School Stadium.

This isn’t your father’s marching band, because today, the performance includes not just musicians marching with their instruments, but also instruments that can’t be carried by marchers. The marchers are also joined on the field by the color guard. Guard members sometimes move through the formations twirling their flags and also may put down their flags and become dancers.

In preparation for the field performance, some of the wheels squeaked as equipment was moved toward the sideline as the football players left the field. The volunteers and uniformed band members joined forces, moving the speakers and the band’s non-marching instruments like the marimba, xylophone, keyboard, kettle drums and chimes into place along the edge of the field.

In preparation for halftime, the marchers had moved quietly along the running track to the side of the field opposite the home fans.

While the equipment was being moved, the marching musicians and the color guard members came off the far side of the field and formed

up behind black portable screens placed at key spots on the gridiron.

The drum major mounted the portable podium, raised her arms and the music began. With the ease of a well-oiled machine, the black-andsilver-uniformed marching band emerged from behind the screens playing their instruments and moving into their assigned places on the field. Splashes of color moved through in concert with the formations as the color guard members raised and twirled their flags.

The Pirates marching band made the complex maneuvers look easy as the marching musicians and flag girls moved with the precision of a welltrained military unit on parade. But each band member not only had to keep in step and move to the right position; he or she also had to focus on hitting the right notes on the instrument being played. The flag twirlers had to concentrate on coordinating their movements to blend with the marching musicians. On occasion, they also put down the flags and became dancers but, once again, they had to make sure their movements flowed with the music and the marchers on each musical selection.

Each move by every on-field performer was choreographed, well-rehearsed and timed so every individual moved in time to the music to arrive at his or her assigned spot. The tempo and flow of each musical number was different, but all the numbers blended together to create what the Pirates hope will be a state award-winning field performance. An appreciative home crowd applauded loudly as the band concluded its performance and marched off the field.

Englewood proposes branding changes Recommendation includes new platform, logo

By Tom Munds tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com A consultant said Englewood residents largely favor a proposed new logo, but there were those who spoke against the symbol during the Sept. 21 Englewood City Council meeting.

Kim Newcomer, principal and founder of Slate Communications, said months were spent doing research that included meeting with residents and members of the business community. The results of the research were used to develop the platform and the new logo.

“We developed three logo designs and asked residents to tell us which they liked,” Newcomer told the council during study session. “About 65 percent of those who responded said they liked the logo.”

However, Elaine Hults said during resident comment time at the council meeting that she didn’t want to see the current logo replaced. She said many people she talked to agree with her, and she urged the council to consider

coming up with another design.

Laurette Barrentine also spoke at the meeting. She said she believes there are more objections to the proposed logo than the consultant reported.

The recommended logo is part of the new city brand platform that includes a core message that Englewood is a lively, caring, connected community. The proposal was discussed at the council’s study session.

“When I was hired I was asked to determine what Englewood was all about and seek ways to help the city grow economically,” City Manager Eric Keck said as he presented the proposal. “I feel the consultant’s proposal is spot on.

The city organization is changing, as is the city. Englewood has a story to tell, and I believe the platform will help us tell the story.”

Keck said if approved by the council, the logo would be rolled out gradually at a cost of about $10,000. He said it would appear on forms and letterhead as the current supply of forms and letterhead are used up. One of the largest costs, about $8,000, would be spent to reformat the city’s website.

The city council is scheduled to consider the new branding platform, which includes the new logo, during its Oct. 6 meeting.

Pirates Continued from Page 1

The announcer explained that Renfro, a Jefferson County Sheriff’s deputy, was off duty when he and a friend stopped to help a stranded motorist. While they were out of their car, a vehicle coming the other way struck and fatally injured Renfro.

Englewood’s football team, fired up after a pregame pep talk by Broncos star DeMarcus Ware, took an early lead in the homecoming game against Elizabeth, but trailed 21-19 at halftime, which was extended for the crowning of the home-

coming king and queen.

“I smiled as I watched the crowning ceremonies,” Pacheco said. “I was homecoming royalty one time. I know I had butterflies when we walked between the flags, and I bet a lot of those kids did too.”

Jonathan Fore, EHS principal, helped crown the king and queen, Zane Miller and Jordan Klipka.

The Pirates football team returned to the field, regained their fire and won the game 32-21, beating Elizabeth for the first time in eight years.

Pacheco hugged her husband’s arm, smiled and said she doubted she could ever attend a better EHS homecoming celebration.

42-year wait ends with medal presentation Gilmore saved equipment from burning building

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com In 1973, Joseph Gilmore earned a Soldier’s Medal for his act of valor as a soldier in the U.S. Army. Last week, he finally got it.

“I apologize on behalf of the government that it took so long,” said U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette during the Sept. 22 ceremony, when Gilmore finally held the medal in his hand.

“Better late than never, I guess. It was another long journey with a happy ending.”

Gilmore, an Army specialist, was serving as a military police officer at Fort Carson in Colorado Springs back then, when one day a building housing artillery and combat vehicles caught fire.

“To be honest with you, after the first blast of fire hit, I kind of went on autopilot,” he said. “I have little to no recollection of what happened.”

Witnesses said he jumped into action, entering the building over and over to rescue several sensitive and valuable vehicles, including one that was on fire.

“Artillery and fire don’t mix, and I was afraid the building would explode,” he said.

He was immediately nominated for the

Soldier’s Medal, the highest honor the Army awards for acts of valor in noncombat situations. But a letter of recommendation went missing, so he never got it.

It’s common for members of the U.S. Congress to step in to help veterans in this situation, and DeGette said it’s one of her favorite parts of the job. She had retired Lt. Col. Aaron Tucker by her side as she presented the medal to Gilmore.

“You’re a fellow soldier and a true patriot,” said Tucker.

Gilmore said he pursued the matter for all who serve in uniform, including the dozens who attended the ceremony at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1 in Denver, the world’s first VFW post.

“This is about them, this is not about me,” he said. “Soldiers perform acts of valor every day. … I pursued this for my son and my grandchildren.”

His son, Jason, is a Commerce City police officer and brought along his two children to see their grandfather honored.

“This is exciting for him, and he deserves it,” he said. “Obviously he’s a wonderful dad, seeing as how I followed in his footsteps in every way I could.”

The younger Gilmore has been honored himself, earning a medal of valor for heroism and bravery after an officer-involved shooting, though he declined to elaborate.

Michael Mitchel describes the heroism that earned Gilmore the Soldier’s Award. Photo by Jennifer Smith Joseph Gilmore stayed in the Army for seven years. He went on to earn his undergraduate degree in forensic science, then went to law school at Rutgers University.

Prior to retiring, he was with the Jefferson County District Attorney’s Office for 24 years.

“I’m so proud of Joe,” said Littleton Mayor Phil Cernanec. “I certainly appreciate all of our citizens who have put in military or even volunteer service. Our community is so blessed with folks who are so willing to give of themselves.”

By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com It was estimated that in 2015, 231,840 women and 2,350 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer in the United States, according to Susan G. Komen. In Colorado, it was estimated that 125 of every 100,000 women will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer.

For many, the statistics are frightening. But for those fighting the battle of breast cancer, the support and love of family members and friends is what strengthened them during their fight. Here are the stories of two survivors in the south metro area and how they got through their fight.

Amy McDowell, Highlands Ranch Amy McDowell is a native of Colorado, and has spent the last eight years living in Highlands Ranch. Six years ago, when she was pregnant with her second son, she found a lump in her left breast.

“I credit my OB/GYN for saving my life,” she said. “He took my concerns seriously — many doctors don’t in young women, saying, ‘You’re too young’ — and recommended a mammogram.”

She was 32 at the time and wouldn’t have had a regularly scheduled mammogram for eight more years.

McDowell was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer at 36 weeks pregnant and had a double mastectomy two weeks later. She started chemotherapy three weeks after that.

Her oldest son was 4 years old.

“Before I was diagnosed, I had always thought I would be the type of person to crumble if I got diagnosed with cancer,” McDowell said. “However, I learned that I possessed a fighting spirit buoyed by the love of my husband, family and friends. I knew from day one that I would fight this with all I had.”

But there were down times, especially in the beginning. And in down times, motivational quotes kept her going.

“Throughout my breast cancer journey, my husband and I were so blessed to feel the love of so many around us,” McDowell said.

“It’s when you go through something truly life-changing that you learn how much your friends and community really care about you.

I wish for everyone to feel that blanket of love without having to experience a cancer diagnosis!”

McDowell said her two children and her husband helped her get through each day.

“I knew that I had to be as strong as I could, and when I couldn’t be strong anymore, I leaned on the people I loved to help me get through another day,” she said.

Minda Carmann, Castle Rock Castle Rock resident Minda Carmann was 37 when she said her world fell apart. After feeling a lump during a self breast exam in June 2014, she scheduled an appointment with her doctor. The doctor originally said that there was nothing to worry about, but

Amy McDowell, shown with husband, Brian, was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer six years ago. A fighting spirit ‘buoyed by the love” of family and friends helped her battle through treatment. She is cancer-free today. Courtesy photo Carmann was sent for a mammogram anyway.

“I had some girlfriends that went through it, but I thought that would never happen to me,” Carmann said.

She was diagnosed with Stage 1 invasive breast cancer.

“The first couple months were really rough not knowing what you’re dealing with, what the plan is,” Carmann said, adding that she has a history of depression and anxiety.

“That set in really hard,” she said. “The first couple months, I didn’t have a lot of fight in me.”

Over the last year, Carmann has had several surgeries in her road to recovery. But her husband, her mom and other women with breast cancer have been the forces that pulled her out of depression.

“I had women who said, ‘You’re going to make it though this, stop feeling sorry for yourself,’” Carmann said, adding that once she had a plan in place, she felt a lot better.

She still has one more surgery scheduled and the battle, she said, is not over yet.

“The first battle is getting the diagnosis and being scared,” she said. “The next is getting thorough treatment — dealing with physical symptoms. Now, it is moving on with your life and being thankful for every day.”

Advice for others McDowell said that women and men all over need to know that cancer can happen to anyone at anytime. It’s important, she said, to know your body and share concerns with your doctor. And if that doctor doesn’t take you seriously, find another doctor.

“There have been far too many women whose doctors have told them, ‘You’re too young, come back in a year if you are still worried,’ and by the time they are diagnosed, their cancer has spread and the diagnosis is far less favorable.”

Carmann said that her diagnosis has taught her to grab hold of all the positives in her life. She does more now, things that she was scared of.

“I’m more seize-the-moment,” she said.

School board hopefuls don’t diverge sharply Three candidates take part in forum

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Candidate Robert Reichardt probably summed up the race for Littleton Public Schools Board of Education best: “This is three 50-year-old white guys.”

Indeed, their answers to questions put to them during a Sept. 22 forum at Littleton High School, sponsored by the League of Women Voters, revealed very few differences between Reichardt, Richard Boorom and Jim Stephens.

They all have kids who have gone through the district and have spent time volunteering in classrooms and district-level committees. They all say they support the teachers, and that “pay for performance” is a flawed plan. They all say vouchers are unnecessary in LPS because there’s already plenty of school choice. They agree that Common Core has value, though much of it has been usurped by politics.

And they all stress that they’re in no

way trying to turn the district into the battlegrounds Jefferson and Douglas counties have become, and that partisanship should be left at the door of the boardroom.

“It doesn’t really have a role, but it’s not realistic because we all have biases,” said Boorom, who has been the president of the for-profit Argosy University in Denver for the last five years. “But if the purpose is really all about the kids … I believe the best way to influence the lives of our learners is through our teachers.”

Reichardt, an education-policy analyst whose mother was a teacher, agreed.

He called “picking fights” with teachers unions “silly.”

“There’s no place for partisan politics,

but there’s a lot of room for debate,” he said. “We should talk and debate about what’s best for kids. This is a scary time for parents and children, and it’s a scary time for voters.”

Stephens, a retired technical consultant who chaired the district’s successful mill-levy campaign in 2013, said the culture throughout LPS has been about kids first, not politics, since a “Back to Basics” slate got elected in 1993. It was promptly replaced by voters four years later.

“We honor all voices,” said Stephens.

“We had a very interesting experience in the 1990s when we stopped doing that, and we’re not going back there.”

The three men did offer different answers when asked what their first priorities would be.

“I think the low-hanging fruit that would have the biggest impact the most quickly is internal communication, telling our own successes,” said Boorom, who lives in Littleton’s Coventry neighborhood. A benefit, he said, is that if more people knew LPS has the same programs as better-advertised ones in neighboring districts, students wouldn’t be lost to them.

Reichert, who lives in Littleton’s

Aberdeen Village neighborhood, said the district could be more parent-friendly.

He said no-student days can create havoc for parents and could be made more convenient for them, and that more guidance could be given to parents wondering which school would be the best fit for a child.

“I do not think LPS is broken, but I do have a priority of putting parents more at the center,” said Reichardt.

Stephens, a Centennial resident, said his priority would be looking at the amount and quality of testing the district adds to what’s required by the state.

“When you start pushing on one side of the water balloon, the other side starts pushing out,” he said. “Assessment needs to be about student learning. …

We need some common sense. Standardized testing for high school seniors is completely crazy after the SAT. Whatever we use should help direct learning and teaching.”

Mail-in ballots will go out to voters the week of Oct. 12. The candidates are running at large, and voters can choose two of the three. The winners will replace Lucie Stanish and Mary Nichols, who are both term-limited out of office.

tuition, the growing importance of post-secondary schools for the workforce to make a “living wage,” and the gap between seniors in high school to college freshman – many college freshman have to take remedial courses in their first semesters because they’re not prepared for fullcredit work.

How can we strengthen our communities? Garcia spoke of the staggering numbers of people that have enrolled in college and completed courses, but never earned a degree. There is an opportunity here. A bigger push for non-traditional campuses and online and evening courses could mean re-enrollment for those previous attendees to

finish their degree.

And in alignment with staggering numbers, Andy Carlson, Sr. Policy Analyst for the State Higher Education Executive Officers Association (SHEEO), delivered an informative presentation on trends in state higher education funding for Colorado and the Nation.

Final comments for the meeting were from Jeff Wasden, President of Colorado Business Roundtable/ Chair, Public Policy, for the Chamber. The Chamber’s Business Leaders for Responsible Government (BLRG) group meets monthly, and is in alignment with the South Metro Denver Chamber’s key strategic priority for public policy.

Event celebrates Sheridan

Annual event includes parade, vendors and inflatables

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Music was the theme of this year’s Sheridan Celebrates event, and there was plenty of music including a pipe band, a rock band and members of the Arapahoe Philharmonic.

Vendors and displays created midway-like areas on the lawn of Sheridan’s City Hall. There were booths offering information about organizations like South Suburban Parks and Recreation Department, booths staffed by political candidates and their supporters, plus vendors selling a wide variety of craft items.

The parade stepped off at 10 a.m. and wound its way to the City Hall area.

The parade celebrated Sheridan. There were marching groups from Sheridan High School athletic teams, equestrians, floats, and representatives of a number of area organizations and groups.

Duane VanVleet, a 1956 Sheridan High School graduate, said he always tries to come to the Sheridan Celebrates event.

“I was born at Fort Logan, and I have lived in Sheridan all my life except for the four years I spent in the Navy,” he said as he watched the parade pass by.

“Sheridan has changed a lot over the years.”

He said he misses some of the things that are now gone like Centennial Race Track, Englewood Speedway, the small farms that used to be in the area, and the large turkey farm in the northern part of Sheridan.

“There are some things that have gone away over the years. They are now just memories,” he said. “But some good things have happened in our city. We have a nice city hall, Federal now is a main road, and Sheridan Celebrates and its parade continue to get better every year.”

Izzabell Arb used a mallet and stamp to create her leather bracelet at the Tandy booth during the Sept. 26 Sheridan Celebrates activities. The booth let visitors create leather items free of charge. The Tandy booth was among almost 80 vendors and display booths set up during the event.

Water in spotlight for local students Treatment plant is venue for schools’ field trip

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Excited laughter and conversations among young voices created a different atmosphere at the Littleton/Englewood Wastewater Treatment Plant as more than 500 students from Englewood, Littleton and Denver made a field trip there for World Water Day activities.

“We have expanded the event this year and have more students attending it,” said Brenda Varner, plant employee and event coordinator. “We have gotten help in expanding the event from a number of agencies that are providing volunteers and displays. Each school’s student group is scheduled to visit every station. The stations provide the opportunity to check out displays, listen to presentations and do hands-on activities. I am sure one of the more popular hand-on activities will be at the booth where each student can create a special T-shirt.”

She said the school groups arrived at different times Sept. 23. Each group then followed a schedule from station to station.

Sixth-graders from Littleton Preparatory Charter School took part in the event. At one of the tour stations, Lily Stinton and other Littleton Prep students were divided into small groups and ran a number of tests on water from the South Platte River.

“I am learning a lot of things I didn’t know about water,” Stinton said. “I am learning about what has to be done to water so it is safe for us to drink. I am glad I came today.”

Rima Garkow, mother of a Littleton Prep student, attended the event and she said she felt it was a very informative field trip for the students.

“I feel it helps our student have a better understanding of what untreated water is like,” she said. “They also learn about the process used to purify the water we drink.”

Westley Dryer looks intently through the magnifying cube at a blood worm. Dryer and classmates from the Littleton Preparatory charter school were among about 500 students who took part in activities during the Sep. 23 World Water Day event at the Littleton/ Englewood Wastewater Treatment Plant. Photos by Tom Munds Fourth-graders from Cherrelyn Elementary School attended the event, and Harry Spengler, a Cherrelyn teacher, said the field trip is a good experience for the students.

“This field trip fits right in with our study of the water cycle and the impact humans have on the cycle,” he said.

“Today, the students can learn about the water treatment process and the impact people can have on the environment.”

A short distance away, students from Colorado’s Finest High School of Choice were looking over some of the displays.

Teacher Sarah Cramer said the field trip was part of the Colorado’s Finest STEM program and provided the students with good information and handon experiences with water.

Shy Clanton, a Colorado’s Finest student, agreed.

“I think it is fun getting to see and learn about where our water comes from and what it is used for,” she said. “We learned about the treatment of sewer

water and we learned about how drinking water is purified.”

Fellow student Charles Childers said it was fun testing river water.

“The water looks OK when you have it in the flask,” he said. “Then with the tests and the displays you learn about all the stuff that is in the river and in the river water. I didn’t know much about the river and the water in it so it is cool to learn about those things.”

OBITUARIES CHARNEY

Pauline Bailey Charney The family of Pauline Bailey Charney will gather at White Rock Cemetery outside of Ross, Texas at noon on Sunday, October 18, 2015, to inter her remains alongside her husband and many generations of her family.

Pauline Evelyn Bailey was born in Waco, Texas on May 25, 1920, to Lloyd and Carrie Belle (White) Bailey.

Her great grandfather, Alonzo Henderson White Sr., arrived in the state before the Texas Revolution and her family had lived in McLennan County since before the Civil War. Pauline was a proud member of the Daughters of the American Revolution, having researched her family’s connection to Private William Langston of North Carolina.

Pauline graduated from Waco High School in 1937 and worked for the Amicable Life Insurance Company before moving to Ft. Worth and working for the Army Air Forces Training Command during World War II. She mar-

May 25, 1920 - June 13, 2015

ried Franklin J Charney in Wichita Falls on December 11, 1943. He was born on January 25, 1920, to Aaron and Leah (Poznansky) Charney in Chicago, Illinois. Pauline met Franklin through her step father, Gus Urbantke, who was stationed at Sheppard Air Force Base with Franklin and brought him home for dinner.

Franklin and Pauline shared 63 years of marriage before he passed away in Littleton, Colorado, on May 5, 2007.

Together they raised five sons while moving around Texas and then to Arizona and California before settling in Littleton in 1962.

While they spent several years in northern Virginia in the 1980s, they lived

in that same house until Pauline passed away on June 13, 2015.

As a dedicated genealogist, Pauline often shared stories with her family and contributed to the efforts of many fellow researchers over the years. Franklin was a history buff and together they drove on countless trips across the country and in Europe, stopping at county courthouses, historical monuments, and the homes of their many friends and family members.

Pauline is survived by her brother Lloyd; sons Franklin Jeffrey and his wife Patricia Jean (Pearson), Kenneth Aaron and his wife Jaclyn Lou (Scheirman), Timothy Gene and his partner Rich Lamm, and Michael Paul; seven grandchildren; and eight great grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents; her sisters Helen Louise Cason and Edith Loraine; her brother Weldon Kirby; and her son Gregory Alan.

LOCAL

Being ready for best is way to be blessed Whenever I am traveling for business or for pleasure, and as I board my flight and am greeted by the flight attendant with “Welcome aboard, and how are you doing?” my response is always the same, “I am ready for the best flight ever!”

That usually generates a smile from the flight attendant and any of the crew who may be paying attention. And sometimes I can even see a sense of pride as their body language and facial expressions shift.

I like to do the same thing when I am greeted at a restaurant. When a host, hostess, or server asks me how I am doing, I respond in a similar way, “I am ready for the best meal ever!” Again, this usually has the staff smiling and feeling proud. And in both situations I will share with you that the customer service I experience is tremendous. This happens because an expectation was established and the people responsible had something to aspire to.

Now what if we started each day with this same philosophy? I mean what if when we got out of bed and greeted ourselves in the mirror each morning, we actually asked ourselves how we are doing, and then responded, “I am ready for the best day ever!”

Believe it or not, there are some people who wake up expecting the very worst day possible. They believe that only bad things

will happen or situations will be filled with gloom and doom. You see these folks in the coffee shop, in the car next to you as you are stuck in traffic, dropping off their kids at school, and anywhere your morning travels might take you. No smiles, kind of terse Michael Norton and grouchy, shoulders slumped, and oozing of WINNING negativity.

WORDS Here is what I found to be the difference: The people who have the very best days ever are the people who expect to have the very best day ever. They plan and prepare for happiness and success.

And they go about planning and preparing and setting expectations in different ways.

Some people take the time the evening before to write out the events and tasks for the next day so that when they wake up they are ready to roll. Others will wake up earlier than anyone else in the home so they can have a cup of coffee and some quiet time.

Others will read, meditate, pray, work out, or participate in a devotional or Bible study

before beginning their day. There are many ways an individual can choose to start their day, and the people who experience the greatest joy and success are those who set their expectations around positive outcomes.

The second thing I see people do after setting positive expectations and being grounded in their commitments to staying positive is that they think through any possible barriers to success. They consider situations or people who may intentionally or unintentionally disrupt their journey to having the best day ever. And once they know who or what can possibly go wrong, they have a strategy for dealing with those disruptions so that they remain in control and their “best day ever” goes on as planned.

How about you? How do you like to prepare for, plan, and start your day to help make it the best day ever? I would love to hear all of your thoughts at gotonorton@ gmail.com, and when we expect to have the best day ever, it really will be a better than good week.

Silent letters give up right to fair hearing There are few things that I appreciate more than complete silence.

Except when it comes to the alphabet.

I just read this, and I was furious: “J.K. Rowling says you’re mispronouncing Voldemort.”

Now she tells us. The “t” is silent.

I don’t know anything about her books or the movies.

About all I know is that I thought Emma Watson was a rather clever girl whenever she appeared on Letterman.

Silent letters should be against the law.

I have gone from a position of complaint to something more aggressive.

If they are silent, do away with them or else.

How did you pronounce “Degas” the first time you saw it?

I am sure it wasn’t “Day-ga.”

The French are to blame for a lot of this.

You pronounce all of the letters in his first name. Edgar. His last name gets Frenched up.

How do you pronounce “Grand Marnier”?

How do you pronounce “Dom Perignon”?

Have you ever been to Sault St. Marie?

Explaining silent letters is a deeper study than I realized.

And none of it would be needed if silent letters were forbidden, as they should be.

Of course, it would put a few people out of business, like functional grammar specialists.

Have you ever heard of “exocentric diographs,” or “endocentric diographs”?

Me either.

There is an exocentric diograph in

A publication of

Craig Marshall Smith

QUIET DESPERATION

“enough.”

There is an endocentric diograph in “guard.”

Why is there an “h” in “Theresa”?

Why are there two “e’s” in “employee”?

Why are there two “l’s” in “misspell”?

Look who’s talking. There are two “l’s” in my middle name and one of them is silent. I have never known which one.

Take your pick.

If it didn’t have two “l’s” I would be a marshal, a municipal law officer. No thanks.

One of the reasons why I am not interested in fashion is because of Yves St. Laurent.

That name is really messed up.

It’s about as far away from phonetic spelling as it gets.

Grammarians have determined that 11 letters are capable of the silent treatment.

They are “b,” “c,” “d,” “g,” “h,” “k,” “n,” “p,” “t,” “u,” and “w.”

And if they all appear in the same word, the entire word is silent, so don’t even bother.

Why is there an “e” at the end of Gross Pointe?

So they can charge extra for mansions.

We’re nearing Christmas. Which means we are nearing the mispronunciation of “poinsettia.”

Kids, the final “i” is not silent.

And the first “r” in “February” isn’t silent.

The second “o” in sophomore isn’t either.

We are a bunch of lazy sods when it comes to words.

We abbreviate, truncate and emasculate the English language. Well, you do. I don’t.

Anyone who says “EVOO” deserves to be slapped.

That’s how Melvin “Slappy” White got his nickname.

White was a comedian, but he was also a scholar, and he slapped anyone who abused language.

He once loosened a man’s tooth when he said “Frisco,” referring to San Francisco. You just don’t do that.

What’s the point of naming a city Las Vegas if you are going to call it “Vegas”?

Vegas were subcompacts made by Chevrolet. They were beset with problems. I haven’t seen one on the road in 30 years.

Let’s get back to Degas.

No one knows if Degas ever spent any time in a Vega in Las Vegas.

Now I want you to look at the word “Wednesday” and tell me what it is doing in this column.

Healey Continued from Page 2

And she can still have fun.

“Teachers here have fun — they’re always smiling. It’s stressful, but there is a great sense of community here.”

•••• Curiosity flies around Judy’s room.

Questions jump from posters and placards on the walls that focus on this fall’s theme of botany.

“Where does food that we eat come from?”

“Why does the world need plants?”

“What do plants need to grow?”

Blue parakeets chirp in a cage in one corner. Jars with sunflowers rest on low tables. There are only a few chairs, but many rugs. Books overflow in yellow and green bins along the wall. Small student-potted containers with plants

line the windowsill. Several Chinese lanterns hang from the ceiling casting a soft light.

Colored bubble letters spell out values the class embraces: Discipline.

Integrity. Compassion. Courage.

Responsibility.

“We Are a Crew, Not Passengers,” reads another placard. Pictures of each student dot a bulletin board, accompanied by adjectives that describe them.

An organized, kaleidoscopic quilt of color, objects and information, the room imparts warmth, inquiry and collaboration — a comfortable place to learn.

The 25 students scatter among the tables and sort through the poetry books. They begin to read, searching for one that speaks to them. Judy circulates, passing out sticky notes, crouching down to ask questions, spur dialogue.

Burch Meriwether-Archer, her teaching assistant, helps. Burch’s two sons had Judy at one time or another.

WHAT'S HAPPENING THIS WEEK?

“Everything she does is built into giving kiddos good support so they know where the boundaries are,” Burch says. “She has high expectations for good behavior. She strikes the perfect balance between letting kids be developmentally appropriate and stretching them to let them grow.”

Her students agree.

“She gives us challenges,” Landon, 7, says. “And I like challenges because challenges actually make you get smarter, and I like getting smarter.”

“She makes us set our goals, which makes us try harder and do better,” Tim, 8, says.

Back at the rug, the children take turns sharing their poems, pinpointing exactly what they liked about them.

“Put your poetry books on the rug,” Judy says. “Your exit ticket to a break outside is . . . to prove to me you can now explain what poetry means to you.”

The answers come quickly.

“It can be long.”

“It can be short.”

“Poems can be sad, funny or serious.”

“Poems can give you ideas.”

“It’s beautiful.”

“It can teach you.”

Soon, the classroom is quiet. The children are outside.

Playing.

Learning.

Judy is preparing for the next lesson.

She’s not thinking much about the end of this last year yet because good teaching requires staying present.

Her primary goal is to enjoy the children.

“I’m going to just make sure the kids are happy,” she says. “And I’m enjoying myself. And they’re definitely learning.”

And that is a beautiful definition of teaching.

Breast cancer affects us all, and early detection can save lives. There is no cure for breast cancer, but mammograms can save lives by finding breast cancer as early as possible.

Every woman, beginning at age 40, should schedule a mammogram and a physical every year.

Women should also perform a thorough breast self-exam once a month. Help spread awareness in your community by educating your neighbors and friends on the signs and symptoms of breast cancer, and encourage the women you know to schedule a mammogram today.

Maria Pearson’s job is to help seniors, but her even more important job is to find the ones who need help — and that’s everyone’s job.

“We are one point of entry for our seniors, for those folks who are most vulnerable, who have never asked for help before,” she said. “We ask the community to be our eyes and ears.”

Maybe you have an elderly neighbor who seems to be drinking too much, or an aunt who suddenly lost a bunch of weight, or a father who seems to be repeating things a lot. These can all be signs of mental-health distress, and that’s what Pearson, executive director of Senior Reach, is out to combat.

The program operates locally under the auspices of the Arapahoe/Douglas Mental Health Network. But it’s been vetted by the National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices, a database of mental-health and substance-abuse interventions.

At the heart of Senior Reach is a training program to teach people to recognize signs that a senior might need such an intervention. Pearson says she’ll visit any church, neighborhood group, school, book club or service organization to give a presentation that could help community members save lives.

“We will go anywhere to talk about the program,” she told those gathered at HealthSouth in Littleton on Sept. 22 to help formally kick off the program.

Once clients are identified, Senior Reach can help with a long list of reliable resources for food, transportation, medical care and mentalhealth treatment — things that can become more complicated after retirement, said Pearson.

Forum Continued from Page 1

Four residents — Danielle Holley, Amy Martinez, Rita Russell and Amber Lee Jorgensen — are running for the two at-large positions.

League officials said all the candidates except Grazulis have responded and stated they plan to take part in the forum.

Voting in the November election will be conducted by mail-in ballot. The ballots will be mailed to registered voters around Oct. 16. The ballots must be returned to the Arapahoe County Clerk’s office by 7 p.m.

Nov. 3 to be counted.

There will be manual drop-off spots around the area, including a drop box in front of the main entrance doors to the Englewood Civic Center.

“Almost one in four people have at least one chronic condition,” says Luci Draayer, a licensed clinical social worker with the Colorado Neurological Institute. “Take the regular `boomer dynamics’ … and then put a disease on top of it. Life can get kind of crazy.”

Many of the baby boomers who will retire over the next 18 years could suddenly find themselves without a support network, without immediate family nearby and without the reliance on social media to maintain friendships that younger people have. This can lead to depression, substance abuse and even suicide, said Joan DiMaria, executive director of A/ DMHN. According to a 2012 Institute of Medicine report, between 5 million and 8 million American seniors have one or more mental-health or substance-abuse disorders, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found in 2013 that suicide attempts among baby boomers are surging.

“The burden of mental illness and substance abuse disorders in older adults in the United States borders on a crisis,” reads the IOM report.

DiMaria stresses that mental illness is treatable.

“Depression is not a normal part of aging,” she said. “That’s a myth that many people believe, and it’s absolutely untrue.”

Littleton Mayor Phil Cernanec knows all too well what can happen if it’s left untreated. He shared a story about his grandfather, who outlived two wives and found himself living alone on a farm at the age of 96.

“He started falling down, and rather than be institutionalized, he decided to take his own life,” said Cernanec. “It was an easy solution for my grandfather, but it was a very tough time for my family.”

It’s a story that Valerie Robson has heard many times. She’s the adult services program manager for Douglas County, where, she says,

THINGS TO WATCH FOR Senior Reach urges people to watch for the following signs that could indicate that an older adult is need of help: Mental state — Confusion, disorientation, memory loss, repetitiveness Physical — Difficulty in seeing, hearing or walking, alcohol or substance abuse Emotional — Recent loss of spouse, loss of appetite, signs of depression, anxiety or withdrawing Social — Isolated, possible victim of abuse, neglect or exploitation Appearance — Unkempt, dirty clothes, weight loss Environment — Home needs repair, trash or debris in yard, neglected pets Economic — Confused about money matters, inability to afford necessities

the senior population is growing at a phenomenal rate.

“We’ve heard over and over again, but very quietly, `I think I need help, and I don’t know who to ask, and I don’t know where to turn,’” said Robson. “They don’t want you to know they’re depressed. They’re afraid that if they tell you, that they might end up in an institution.”

Centennial resident Betsy Mathies is one who found a way to reach out. When she was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2012, she first burst into tears.

“And then I remember I said, `Oh shoot!’

(The doctor) asked me if I wanted to say something stronger than that, and I said, `I’d like to start, but I might not be able to stop — it would be F-bomb city.’ Find some humor in it. Sometimes, you’ve got to laugh at it.”

School board forum set League of Women Voters to moderate Oct. 10 event

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Voters will have an opportunity to hear from the four candidates for the Englewood Board of Education during a candidate forum to be held at 10 a.m. Oct. 10 on the Englewood Campus, 3800 S. Logan St. The three candidates whose names will be on the ballot are incumbent Kevin Ebert, Sharon Scheminske and Dagan Thomas. Longtime Englewood resident Gary Richardson is registered as a write-in candidate.

The forum is being organized in coop-

eration with the League of Women Voters of Arapahoe and Douglas Counties.

The format calls for each candidate to make opening and closing comments, and each candidate will be given the opportunity to answer each of the questions. The questions asked will be submitted by audience members.

Registered voters living in the school district will elect three members to the board.

Incumbent Ebert is seeking re-election, but two individuals are leaving the board; board president Duane Tucker chose not to seek another term, and Vickie Howard is term limited.

School board members are elected to serve four-year terms. Board members receive no pay for their service, but expenses related to performing their duties can be reimbursed.

LIFE Asian Indians plant roots in area LOCAL

Attracted by jobs, many remain for quality of life

By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com A cricket club in Littleton.

Markets that sell ethnic Asian Indian foods in Lone Tree. A new Hindu temple in Centennial.

The growing population of Asian Indians is changing the ethnic makeup of communities in the south metro area.

“I used to kind of be the odd man out in the store,” said Murali Anakavur, who moved to Lakewood in 1995 and now lives in Littleton. “Not anymore.”

Although not staggering, the statistics don’t lie: There were 2,942 people of Indian descent in Arapahoe County in 2008; that number climbed to 6,701 last year, according to the State Demography Office. The population of Asian Indians, as they are categorized in the U.S. Census, more than doubled in Douglas County from 2012 to 2014.

Census data from 2008-14 shows a “statistically significant” population increase in south metro Denver and across the state, said Rob Kemp, estimates demographer for Colorado’s demography office. However, yearover-year figures are nominal and Asian Indians in Arapahoe and Douglas counties account for only about 1 to 2 percent of the total population.

But the change has been especially noticeable, at least in part, because of the high percentage of Caucasians in the area.

“In a place so dominated by one racial group, like especially in Douglas County, it might theoretically look like more because there are not a lot of racial groups,” Kemp said.

Welcome to America Another indicator of the burgeoning community of Indian

Suresh Bejawada, 25, who co-owns Mythri Indian Groceries with three other people, shows off the produce section Sept. 25. Vegetables are the hottest-selling item. immigrants arrived in the form of a new Hindu temple on Potomac Street in Centennial. The Hindu Temple and Cultural Center of the Rockies, which opened with a lavish, four-day ceremony in June, was built “to meet the needs of growing Indian population,” its website says. More than 1,500 families regularly attend services at the temple.

Several Indian grocery markets have opened up shop, with one each in Centennial and Greenwood Village, and two in Lone Tree.

One of the stores in Lone Tree is the popular Mythri Indian Groceries on Forsstrom Drive.

Business was a little slow in the first two months after the shop opened in January at the end of a strip mall, but picked up considerably once word got

around. Now, there are sometimes lines on Thursdays and Sundays, when shipments of fresh produce come in. The store has 30-40 members and caters to Indians and non-Indians alike.

Owned by four partners, including Satya Chigurupati and Suresh Bejawada, the grocery store carries products familiar to Indians. Bejawada, a 25-year-old who moved to the United States in 2009 to pursue a master’s degree in electrical engineering, says the decision to open in Lone Tree was based on its proximity to employers and the light rail system.

Denver’s community of “desis,” a common term for people from South Asia who live abroad, boasts multiple associations and clubs. One of the more popular activities is cricket, and the best

team in Colorado happens to be based in Littleton. The Littleton Cricket Club — founded in 1994 — now has three teams due to demand. It plays matches on Saturdays and Sundays during the summer in Cornerstone Park on the Littleton/Englewood border and Challenger Park in Parker.

On a recent sunny afternoon at Cornerstone Park, one of the few available cricket grounds in the Denver area, club president Ramesh Appat watched the final match before playoffs. He points out the Littleton Lions are going for their fourth consecutive state championship.

Cricket, an Indian pasttime similar to America’s connection with baseball, is a perfect way to unwind while sharing a cultural experience and bonding. Many

players have families and 9-to-5 jobs, the latter of which precipitated the transcontinental relocation for the majority, said Appat, who himself came to the Unites States in 1998 for a job opportunity.

“We have IT folks; we have doctors,” the 44-year-old Parker resident said. “It’s a mixture, but primarily information technology, which has been the main attraction for immigrants coming from southeast Asia.”

Many in the south metro area have found employment with firms based in the Denver Technological Center, Inverness Business Park and Meridian International Business Center.

Housing data from Douglas County Demographic Program analyst Nancy Gedeon shows a high percentage of Asian Indians live in the far northern tier of the county, in close proximity to employment centers.

The decision to stay Lucrative, one- or two-year contracts with tech firms are, in some cases, what draw Asian Indians to Colorado. But the lifestyle and open space are a convincing reason to stay.

Anakavur, the Littleton resident, moved to the U.S. at the age of 30, and although it was an adjustment for his wife, Anakavur fell in love with Colorado almost immediately.

There was an abundance of attractive attributes: a beautiful landscape, near-perfect weather, community safety, a manageable commute, “quietness” and the people. Plenty of job options and outdoor activities, such as tennis and hiking, drew in Anakavur, who also works in the tech industry.

“I’ve never looked back since and came to love it here,” the 52-year-old said. “It’s my home.”

October 1, 2015

A new decade — with a little help from my friends I turned 30 a couple weeks ago. A big one. Or so everyone tells me.

Personally, I’ve always found the significance of certain birthdays a reflection of social constructs placed on us by society. So hitting 30 or 50 — or whatever — is only going to hit as hard as you let it.

Or maybe I’m just getting grumpy in my old age.

In either case, I spent the bulk of my birthday in a car driving through California’s ancient Redwood forests with my parents and brother — and I couldn’t have asked for a better place to make turning 30 seem like a minor achievement.

I was so pleased to share it with my family. But I couldn’t help missing my friends on the occasion, especially when LCD Soundsystem’s “All My Friends” came up in the mix.

For those unfamiliar with the song, it’s the best of the 21st century thus far, especially for people of my generation coming into adulthood.

The song tracks the attempts of singer/songwriter James Murphy (who was 37 at the time he wrote it) to stay in touch with friends as he drags himself into middle age. It’s chockful of dry and melancholy observations about the effort it takes to keep up with friends as responsibilities of maturity and family take a bigger toll.

Structurally, “All My Friends” is a 7 1/2-minute build to a catharsis that never quite comes — if that’s not a metaphor for life, I’m not sure what is.

The song starts out with a repeated plunking piano line and expands as each new instrument joins the fray. By the end, everyone’s instruments are louder and bigger - a sonic way of shouting to the void: “Do your worst!” On a musical level alone, the thing is a wonder.

LINER NOTES

When you add the lyrics, the song becomes a classic.

The aches and loneliness of aging are chronicled beautifully as Murphy talks about throwing just one more great party for the people he loves.

“You spent the first five years trying to get with the plan/And the next five years trying to be with your friends again,” capture the sacrifices we often make along the way, and how difficult it can be to regain what was lost.

Murphy also invokes feelings of gratitude for the people who are always there for you, no matter what happens: “And if I made a fool, if I made a

fool, if I made a fool On the road, there’s always this.

And if I’m sued into submission, I can still come home to this.”

The lyrics that stick with me the most are simple and direct: “I wouldn’t trade one stupid decision/For another five years of life.”

In these words, I hear all the nights you never want to end, moments just sitting around, talking or running through the streets, laughing your head off on the way to the next stop. I hear my friends in those words, and how much I miss them, since we don’t see each other as often as we would like.

I’m getting sentimental as I get older, but I’m OK with

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK Selection: Ryan Adam’s 1989, released on Pax-Am Records.

Review: Adams covered Taylor Swift’s pop manifesto in its entirety, tapping into the moodiness of Bruce Springsteen and The Smiths in the process. His version highlights how bulletproof Swift’s work remains.

Favorite song: “I Wish You Would” Favorite re-worked lyric: “You’ve got that Daydream Nation look in your eye,/ I got that pent up love thing that you like.” - “Style”

that.

At the start of a new year, a new decade, there’s really only one question I have, and it’s the same one as Murphy: Where are my friends tonight?

Comfort food eatery opens new location Cincinnati-based restaurant Tom+Chee celebrated the grand opening of its second Colorado location on Sept. 25 at the Streets at SouthGlenn, 6879 S. Vine St., in Centennial.

Trillium is no more Chef Ryan Leinonen, who opened Trillium, an award-winning Scandinavian eatery, in December 2011, recently closed the Ballpark neighborhood restaurant. “It’s time to move on from Trillium and explore new opportunities,” said Leinonen, a Michigan native whose culinary career spans more than two decades of accomplishments, including working at Denver’s Colt & Gray, Root Down, Penny Parker The Kitchen and Q’s (now Spruce) in MILE HIGH Boulder.

“I was living my dream, and I LIFE had a ton of fun doing it, plus I won a lot of awesome awards, cooked at the James Beard House and pushed myself — more than I ever thought possible — to achieve success during Trillium’s five-year run,” Leinonen said. ”I’ve worked with some absolutely amazing people — people who helped my dream of opening my own restaurant come to fruition — and they’ve all enriched my life more than they’ll ever know. I hope they learned as much from me as I learned from them.”

Leinonen, whose life was recently graced by the arrival of his second daughter, plans to revel in fatherhood. “I’ve been working nonstop for the past several years, so I’m going to take a few months off to stay at home and enjoy some much-needed time with my wonderful wife and daughters,” he said.

Still, while he’s happy to relax for a bit, the next chapter, he said, will definitely involve a professional kitchen and perhaps another restaurant that he owns and operates. “The opportunities for me are endless, and the best is yet to come.”

Two iconic eateries close Two decades-old Denver restaurants have left the dining landscape: Las Delicias on 19th Avenue and The Egg Shell in Cherry Creek North.

Las Delicias, a 40-year-old fixture at 439 E. 19th Ave. shuttered abruptly last week with a note on the door and its website saying it was “closing for remodeling,” and would reopen next spring.

Westword, however, which first reported the closing, speculates that the iconic eatery may remain closed due to the loss of the parking lot across the street. The parking lot is being transformed into a large residential and retail development, and the loss of the lot made parking in the popular Uptown neighborhood “challenging.”

Whether the original location reopens, Las Delicias continues to operate four other outposts throughout the metro area.

Meanwhile, The Egg Shell, a 30-year presence in Cherry Creek North, shuttered the 235 Fillmore St. spot on Sept.

27. Owner Peggy Bevan told Eater Denver that she has been scouting other locations.

Harvest Week returns Harvest Week, the epitome of an independent restaurant collaboration, returns for the 2015 edition Oct. 4-9.

Dinners (and a brunch) will take place all week long. Each night a group of five-plus restaurants will come together to create pop-up parties at the GrowHaus, a nonprofit indoor farm at 4751 York St. Every day includes a full bar and lots of food. All the festivities support EatDenver, a consortium of independently owned restaurants, and the Growhaus.

Environmental activist’s novel is set in Maine Latest from Bond is thriller with focus on corruption

Author Mike Bond will soon return to his Littleton home and will be appearing to discuss his latest thriller.

Courtesy photo

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Mike Bond, a Maine native who lives in Roxborough (as well as Maine and Hawaii), has, as a journalist, covered environmental issues worldwide and war and politics in Latin America, Africa, the Middle East and Europe. He has been, and is, an environmental activist and is very much distressed by the growth of wind farms in Maine, where his family has lived since the 1600s. “Killing Maine,” recently published, is set in his home state.

He writes a complicated tale of bribery, corrupt politicians with influence over environmental groups — and the intense focus of Special Forces veteran/internationally known surfer Pono Hawkins, who knows how to operate in dangerous circumstances — and with interesting women. (We first met Pono in “Saving Paradise,” set in Hawaii, where similar issues affect the beauty of a special place, and assassins awaited in the shadows.)

This is Bond’s sixth book and earlier ones are set in the Middle East, Guatemala, Africa — each with an underlying concern about nature and the politics that drive leaders to action.

The author is described by his publisher as the master of the socially conscious thriller. “Killing Maine,” called an existential thriller, has Hawkins charging into one messy situation after another and ends the story with a funny dilemma that could go a number of directions if there were more pages.

Pono heads to Maine to aid his former Special Forces buddy, Bucky Franklin, who is in jail, accused of murdering an environmentalist. Hawkins is greeted with gunfire on his first excursion into the woods and is almost always feeling threatened and edgy. Bucky’s wife, who called for help, is also a former lover — one of many. And Hawkins takes up with Abigail, the murder victim’s widow.

Bond describes the beautiful woods and mountains, coated with snow, temperatures well below freezing. It’s invaded by a noisy wind farms that don’t really function well and destroy property values — and residents’ treasured peace and quiet. They have come about through corruption that riddles the state’s political structure.

The book cover of Littleton author Mike Bond’s new Thriller, “Killing Maine.” Courtesy image Winter is almost an additional character as Pono moves through frigid, rough territory, ducking bullets and hiding from threatening villains, as he keeps Bucky’s old green Kawasaki snowmobile operating. It’s obviously very familiar territory for Bond, one he truly treasures. Although in a phone conversation, he also waxed eloquent about the beauty of the Roxborough area where his home is located — and its wildlife and threats to that area.

worship Time 10:30AM sundays

As Hawkins roams through Maine, he occasionally stops at Stroudwater Graveyard to give the relatives an update — a clever way of keeping the reader in the loop through a convoluted tale.

His characters and locations are clearly described, so the reader has an ongoing mental picture (the movie in your head?) and the dialogue reflects Maine colloquialisms. He connects with people at colorful spots like Three Dollar Dewey’s in Portland, where he meets a woman lawyer. There’s a brief sequence in Hawaii as he visits with and philosophizes with his terminally ill father, who is also a unique character. Dad plans to sail off into the sunset.

Today’s technology comes online as he asks his island friend, Mitchell, to run down information about Maine police operations and legislators, when local types are stonewalling him. And then, Abigail goes missing to further complicate the picture …

Bond’s book is available at the Tattered Cover, and when he returns to the area, he will set up a time to meet readers and talk about his new book, as well as his multifaceted life and interests.

College magazine grabs top award Progenitor publishes work of talented ACC students

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com “First Place with Special Merit” said the award won by Arapahoe Community College’s striking Progenitor Art and Literary Magazine for 2015. The award was from the American Scholastic Press Association’s annual magazine competition. It quoted a judge: “Progenitor is an amazing publication! Not only have you mastered the basic elements of a good magazine … but you have also published excellent works from your school population.

Progenitor is a model for those up and coming and an inspiration for those magazines that haven’t quite aced the necessary skills.”

ACC student John Whatley earned an Outstanding Photograph award for his “The Visitor,” which appeared on Page 61. Whatley was selected Student of the Year in December 2014, with a 3.92 GPA, a focus on chemistry and biology courses, and the honor of serving as commencement speaker at rites held that month.

Art museum gains new curators Denver icon adds staff with endowments’ help

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com As a busy autumn season kicks off at the Denver Art Museum, three new curators have joined the museum staff. Each brings special skills to share with area arts lovers and each position is endowed by special donations.

• Tianlong Jiao is the Joseph de Heer Curator of Asian Art and comes from the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, where he was department head and curator of Chinese art. Dr. Jiao Tianlong will oversee the DAM’s Asian collection, which includes objects from China, India, Japan, Korea, Southeast Asia, Southwest Asia, Tibet and Nepal.

In the past 10 years, Tianlong has curated six international traveling exhibitions presenting jades, sculptures, textiles, photography, paintings, maps and ceramics from China and the Pacific Rim. He holds a Ph.D.

in archaeology from Harvard and a master of arts from Chinese Academy of the Social Sciences.

“He has built his career on presenting the stories behind objects and the seamless connection between art and artifact,” according to museum publicists. He says he looks forward to working with the museum’s broad collection of ancient and contemporary Asian art in future programming.

• Rebecca R. Hart is named the Polly and Mark Addison Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art. For the past 10 years, she has been curator of contemporary art at the Detroit Hart Institute of Arts.

The DAM has built a broad-based modern and contemporary collection, which she will oversee in collaboration with Curator of Modern Art Gwen Chanzit.

Hart spoke of a special interest in partnering with the Hispanic community after previous experience in Detroit, the Miami area and in Oaxaca, Mexico. She looks forward to working with the active museum staff — and to a view of the High Plains and the Rockies.

An enlivened age Lakewood conference explores new ways seniors can engage in life

By Clarke Reader creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com The second-half of life can be a thrilling, dynamic and inspiring time, and the first annual Enlivened Living Wisdom Conference wants to show seniors how it can be done.

The event runs Friday, Oct. 9, and Saturday, Oct. 10, at Lakewood’s MileHi Campus, 9077 W. Alameda Ave. “This event is designed to be all quality and unique products and services,” said George Cappannelli, CEO of AgeNation, which is sponsoring the event, along with Mile Hi Church, The Mile Hi Foundation, Ubiquity and Panacea Community. “It is designed to be an innovative event for the attendees and help to connect them with a greater purpose in their lives.”

The conference is aimed at those 50 and older who are looking for new ways to engage and interact within their own lives and the community as they age. To that end, the conference brings together speakers, music, videos and entertainment and a product-and-services exposition. Topics to be discussed include improving health and vitality, exploring second and third careers, and “un-retirement” and resiliency in a rapidly-changing world.

Just a few of the international bestselling authors and experts scheduled to speak include Joan Borysenko, Mark Nepo, Amit Goswami, Dannion and Kathryn Brinkley, Carol Flake, Nathan Crane, Howard Martin, Kelly Sullivan Walden, Chris Farrell, Marilyn Schlitz, Dr. Norm Shealy and Randy Hayes.

IF YOU GO WHAT: Enlivened Living Wisdom Conference WHERE: Mile-Hi Campus 9077 W. Alameda Ave., Lakewood WHEN: Friday, Oct. 9 and Saturday, Oct. 10 COST: $15 a day in advance $75 for special all-weekend pass INFORMATION: 505-982-5754 or www. enlivenedliving.com

“We’ve been trying this kind of event out in different places trying to get it right,” Cappannelli said. “We want to bring the best wisdom-keepers we can to people and make it as accessible for them as possible.”

As a filmmaker and co-producer of the conference, Crane will be discussing his passion for sustainability, both on a personal and grander level.

“I’ve done a lot of work in the health and healing areas, which lead to my present commitment to sustainability,” he explained. “I want to speak to people about sustainability of health, of peace, of mind, of the community and of the planet.”

After participating in several similar events, Crane said the best part is seeing the way people’s lives change based on the information they receive.

“The way people come up to you afterwards, and they’re so cheerful and positive — it’s amazing,” he said.

“There’s nothing more powerful than a bunch of people coming together to improve their lives and the lives of others.”

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com

If it hadn’t been for an athletic trainer, Josh Boatright would most likely be dead.

But thanks to Piper Thompson’s knowledge and gut instinct, the Legend High School senior saw a doctor who diagnosed a heart condition corrected by surgery.

And today, he’s playing on the defensive line for the Titans’ football team.

“I can’t give her enough praise,” Boatright’s mother, LeAnne, said of Thompson. “I love her because she saved my son’s life.”

Thompson is an example of how high school athletic trainers have become more knowledgeable and respected.

All are certified and nearly 70 percent have master’s degrees. Injury prevention, evaluation and rehabilitation are some duties, but trainers also follow up on concussions, monitor the weather, make sure water is available, help determine whether athletes can return to play and often provide referrals to outside doctors or specialists.

“Athletic training is really a lot more involved in education, and the skill set is much higher than people really understand,” said Bridget Younger of Children’s Hospital Colorado Sports Medicine program.

Trainers’ roles vary by school district.

Douglas County School District hires its own athletic trainers but contracts with Children’s for assistant trainers. Adams 12 employs head trainers from Children’s.

Jefferson County and Elizabeth hire from Panorama Orthopedics and Spine Center in Golden. Littleton Public Schools uses trainers from Physiotherapy Associates of Greenwood Village. Two schools in the Cherry Creek school district hire trainers from Rocky Mountain Youth Hospital, and others employ trainers who are also certified teachers.

Head trainers have to monitor practices, attend as many events as possible — especially football games — and make sure each activity for their school is covered by a trainer from one of the schools competing.

“There is a lot going on,” said Chris Matthewson, who has been Ponderosa’s trainer for 23 years. “We just try to be in the middle of it.”

Lindsay Anderson, the head trainer at Ralston Valley, noted that times have changed.

“Sometimes just taping people up is what our profession is known for because we are good at that, but that’s just a piece of what we do,” Anderson said. “The athletic training profession in general has been fighting to be seen as medical professionals and not just somebody that hands out Band-Aids and does basic first aid. Our knowledge is a lot deeper than that.”

Advancements in technology and science mean treatments for injuries are constantly changing.

“There’s a little bit of change every year,” Anderson said. “There is some new science

Legend athletic trainer Piper Thompson is a graduate of Douglas County High School. Photo by Jim Benton out telling us how we should be treating athletes to give them optimal care.”

Matthewson also has seen the job evolve over the years, particularly with concussions.

“We’ve always taken concussions seriously, but we have much better management mainly because people know it and understand it,” he said. “One of the biggest changes is I’m doing more of the rehab in the post-surgical care because health care has gotten to where you have surgery, three or four visits with the PT and then they say off you go. We do a lot of that and kids love it because they get to stay with friends and teammates and not get shipped off to a physical therapist.”

Trainers also have a say about when an athlete can resume play. Sometimes, before making the decision, they consult with coaches and parents.

“Even if a kid comes to me with a doctor’s note and the doctor’s note says he or she can play but I’m not comfortable with that, I can always be more conservative than the doctor’s notes and even be more aggressive,” said Thompson. “If I’m not comfortable, we have a policy set up with our district that allows for us to say, ‘No, I’m sorry, you are not ready to play yet.’”

Many schools get help from high school students who obtain clinical hours working with trainers. The students learn skills required to be an athletic trainer and perform duties like retrieving water and hot packs to help trainers.

Heritage High School trainer Rhiannon Oberto worked at Valparaiso and Kent State but prefers the high school level.

“I’m really impressed with high school trainers,” she said. “I guess I did not realize how much more they have to do. I’m not discrediting a university athletic trainer, but they have a huge support system because there are a whole bunch of them in one facility. Here, right now, it’s just me. I love this atmosphere a lot better.”

Legend player has life-saving heart surgery Titans’ athletic trainer suspected problem

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Senior Josh Boatright collapsed during a Legend High School preseason workout in July. He recovered, and following a team meeting, approached Titans athletic trainer Piper Thompson because his heart was still beating fast.

Thompson suspected something was wrong. She called Boatright’s parents and said their son needed to be referred for treatment.

Four days later, Boatright underwent heart surgery after being diagnosed with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, a rare condition caused by an extra path between the heart’s upper and lower chambers that causes the heart to beat rapidly.

During the follow-up appointment, LeAnne Boatright said, the cardiologist “looked at my son and said, “You need to thank your athletic trainer because she saved your life. After reviewing all the scans and all the tests we did on you, you had maybe one or two more practices and you would have been dead.’ He said that’s how serious his heart was.”

Thompson, a graduate of Douglas County High School, has been the head trainer at Legend since 2008. She has a bachelor’s in sports and exercise science from the University of Northern Colorado.

She will be honored for her life-saving actions at the Oct. 20 Douglas County school board meeting.

At the summer workout, Thompson knew it was time to suggest Boatright consult an expert.

Smart play formula for good scores

State golf tournaments scheduled at three venues

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Smart golf could be the winning formula for individuals and teams competing in the upcoming Colorado state high school boys golf tournaments.

The three state tournaments will be held Oct. 5-6 with Class 5A golfers playing at the tree-lined Fort Collins Country Club. Valor Christian will open defense of its Class 4A title at Longmont’s Fox Hill Country, while the 3A state competition is set for Eagle Ranch in Eagle.

It will take smart golf of hitting fairways, avoiding shots that are too aggressive and playing well along

and on the greens to be among the leaders.

“For us it’s about hitting fairways and hitting greens and eliminating three putts,” said Highlands Ranch coach James Baker, whose team won the Southern regional. “When we play like that we are really good.

“They’re growing up. We’re playing smart golf. We’ve been up there (Fort Collins Country Club) a couple times.

It’s the kind of course we can play pretty well on. It’s just a good test of golf.”

Teams that finished first or second in the four regional tournaments qualified four-player teams but only the top three scores for each school count in team standings. Schools that qualified three players, like defending Class 5A champion Coronado, can also compete for the team title.

Regis Jesuit, Highlands Ranch, Mountain Vista, Fossil Ridge, Arapa-

hoe, Rock Canyon, Heritage and Lakewood qualified four-man teams.

Regis, which has won four of the past five state titles, is favored.

“There’ll be some amazing golf that goes on,” said Arapahoe coach Harry Buckner.

Tournaments during the regular season and the regionals are one-day events but golfers at the state tournament will play 36 holes.

“It’s going to separate the one kid that maybe has a really good round and make sure you don’t have that one round that wins the tournament,” said Rock Canyon coach Dave Vahling. “They have to play both days and that makes it that much harder.”

In Class 4A, Valor Christian won the Metro regional by one shot over Evergreen but the Eagles have the experience in state tournaments. Valor has won five of the past six 4A titles.

Legend senior Josh Boatright had surgery after a July heart episode and is back playing this year. Photo byJim Benton “His heart was racing real bad and (he) felt like it was beating out of his chest.

Something wasn’t right,” she said. “We recognized it, got help and referred him to whom we had to refer him to.”

The 6-foot-1, 288-pound Boatright, who has moved from center to defensive line this season, is on heart medication. He has additional surgery scheduled after the season.

“The surgery was supposed to be an hour, two hours tops,” recalled LeAnne.

“My son was on the table for seven hours.

His heart started swelling so they had to stop the procedure. So we go back in December, clean everything up and finish up the last 60 percent.”

Boatright said he feels fortunate to be playing football.

“I’m glad Piper was there,” he said. “I’m very blessed.”

LOCAL STATE QUALIFIERS Players from the south metro area who qualified for the state golf tournaments on Oct. 5 and 6. The Class 5A tournament will be at the Fort Collins Country Club; the Class 4A event will be at Fox Hill Country Club in Longmont; and the Class 3A tourney will take place at Eagle Ranch in Eagle.

Pirates clash on the court Englewood bests Alameda in league volleyball showdown

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Englewood’s Pirates scored first and often, winning three straight games to post a victory in the Sept. 24 league volleyball match against the Alameda Pirates in a battle of buccaneers.

“This was the first game in a while where the girls came in with the right mindset and intensity,” Englewood coach Kristal Kostiew-Smith said after the game. “They carried that mindset and intensity on the floor with them, helping us play very well tonight.”

Key moments Englewood established control of the tempo early, pulling ahead 6-0 in the first game and building on its lead. The team won the first game 25-14 and took the second game 25-6.

The third game in the best-of-five match was close early. The score was tied at 7-7. Then Jane Brown stepped to the line to serve for Englewood. Her serves were well placed, and her team scored 12 straight points to win the game 25-13.

Key players/statistics Haley Ebert led the team in kills with eight while teammate Maryah Hoeft made 10 digs and 15 assists. Rieghan Kirklin led the team in serving aces with eight.

They said it The Englewood coach said the match against Alameda was one of the best team performances so far this season.

“Our players were intense and played selfless volleyball,” she said. “Playing as a team is something we have been working on. We have been working to focus on the fact everyone on the floor is valuable rather than focusing on one or two players being the most important individuals

Jane Brown does a jump serve during the Sept. 23 league volleyball match against Alameda. In the third game, Brown serves 12 straight points as Englewood won three games in a row to post their first league match win of the season. Photo by Tom Munds on the floor.”

She said Englewood has lost a couple of tough league matches, but she added she believes if the team continues to play as they did against Alameda, they can beat their league rivals.

Sophomore setter Maryah Hoeft said it was a very intense night on the court.

“This was an important match for us against a league opponent that is also a

rival,” she said after the match. “We have intensity going into every match, but sometimes that fades. Tonight we played with the same intensity all three games.”

She said she personally is doing a better job of reading where the other team’s players are on the court.

“I also play tennis,” she said. “I think volleyball helps developing good agility, and moving back and forth on the court

helps me be a better tennis player.”

Going forward Englewood, 5-7 overall and 1-3 in league play, is scheduled to be on the road for a nonleague game Oct. 3 against Lake County High School. The Pirates then return to league play Oct. 6 at home against Skyview and on the road Oct. 8 against Weld Central.

Englewood outscores a rival Broncos star delivers pregame pep talk as Pirates topple Elizabeth 32-21

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com The atmosphere inside the Englewood High School football team’s locker room before the Sept. 25 homecoming game was one of rapt attention as the players listened to Broncos linebacker DeMarcus Ware deliver the pregame talk.

He told the players to be proud of the jerseys they wore, to always play to the best of their abilities, and to go out and win the game against Elizabeth.

The Pirates followed Ware’s advice,

playing perhaps their best game in a while as they beat Elizabeth 32-21, marking the first time Englewood has beaten the Cardinals in football in eight years.

Englewood took control of the game early as Daryl Culbreath ran a quick slant play to the left and raced 43 yards for a touchdown. The extra point failed, so Englewood led 6-0. They added another touchdown on a short run by Kevin Mahler to make the score 12-0.

Elizabeth scored in the second quarter to cut the Pirates’ lead to 12-7. But Englewood stretched the lead as Culbreath returned the kickoff 46 yards for a touchdown. The extra point was good and upped the Pirates’ lead to 19-7.

The Cardinals then scored on a short pass, and minutes later an Elizabeth player scooped up a Pirates fumble and

ran in for a touchdown to give the visiting team a 21-19 edge at halftime.

Englewood regained the momentum in the third quarter when, with 9:23 left in the period, Culbreath intercepted a pass and returned it for a touchdown to give the Pirates a 25-21 advantage.

Elizabeth had a first and goal inside the 5-yard line late in the quarter, but the Pirates defense became a stone wall, putting on an outstanding goal-line stand.

The fourth quarter started with Englewood taking over on downs on its own 2-yard line. The second play was a quick trap to the right side, and Culbreath burst through and raced to the end zone 98 yards away to end the scoring with Englewood up 32-21.

The 98-yard touchdown run from

scrimmage is believed to be an Englewood High School record.

“What a football game,” said Pirates coach Jay Graves. “We asked the kids to have their best practices and play their best football in this game. The played their tails off and did it.”

He said the pregame talk by Ware got them fired up, and the players did everything they were asked to do with high energy. For his part, Culbreath smiled as he spoke about the night in which he gained 234 yards rushing and finished with 319 in total yards.

“It was an amazing night,” he said.

“We were fired up for this game, and having Demarcus Ware talk to us fired us up even more. Every guy on our team did a great job, and this is a game we’ll all remember for a long time.”

LITTLE DOGS HAVE THEIR DAY Dachtober Fest was no place for the big dogs. No, the Sept. 26 event at Progress Park in Littleton was for the cute little pups, like dachshunds and other small breeds. The dogs competed in contests and races, like the Doxie Dash, while humans ate, drank and shopped. Proceeds from the event went to Wyoming Dachshund & Corgi Rescue and other small-breed rescue groups.

While there were plenty of attractions for the furry friends, there was also music, food and drinks for the owners.

An 8-year-old, ex-foster Yorkie sports his Bronco gear at the event. Many hopeful dogs entered the costume contest, but this dog had his eye on the prize.
