PL E ASE RECYCLE

Three vie for District 3 council seat Laurett Barrentine

Lewis Fowler

John Grazulis

Laurett Barrentine served four years on the Englewood City Council and now is running to return to the council as the District 3 representative.

Barrentine is an accountant who received her education at Arapahoe Community College and Mansfield Business College. She also attended the Organizational Leadership program at the University of Denver and did an internship at the Independence Institute.

In addition to her service on city council, she has been active on boards and committees in the community, including the Arapahoe County Childhood Network Board, the Englewood Liquor Licensing Authority, the Englewood School District Accountability Committee, Colorado State Board of Nursing and Colorado Medical Services Board, and she founded Englewood Citizens for Open Government.

Barrentine’s father and sister had homes in Englewood for more than 10 years when she bought her home in the city more than 20 years ago. She and her sister raised their families just a few blocks apart.

Lewis Fowler is one of the three candidates seeking to be elected as the District 3 representative on the Englewood City Council.

Fowler is an Englewood native who attended Englewood Public Schools.

He now is a licensed architect who earned his bachelor’s degree in architecture at the University of Colorado and his master’s degree in telecommunications from the same school.

The 54-year-old has not been a member but has taken part as a resident observer with Englewood’s Planning and Zoning Commision, Urban Renewal Authority, the Keep Englewood Beautiful Commission and the Water and Sewer Board.

Fowler is married. He and his wife have no children. His mother and father moved to Englewood in 1961.

John Grazulis, a 36-year Englewood resident, is seeking office for the first time as a candidate for the Englewood City Council.

Grazulis is a semi-retired dog trainer who attended the University of Denver.

He has never sought elected officer but he served as district chairman for the campaign for Congressman Jack Swigert. He has served as a member of the Arapahoe County Fair Board of Directors and served on the Colorado Horse Racing Association Committee for four years.

He and his wife, Julie, have been married for 42 years. They have two daughters, Kendra and Kirstin.

Why do you want to serve on city council?

The city council is out of touch with the citizens. Losing our Englewood Fire Department, pushing high density, and selling off Depot Park are a few examples of how disconnected they are. The city council opposed every one of the citizen ballot issues that were overwhelmingly passed by the Englewood voters. It is time the citizens had real representation instead of opposition from their elected council.

Barrentine continues on Page 21

Why do you want to serve on city council?

Ensure Englewood’s bright future as a city and maintain its fiscally stable present into the future by growing sales-tax revenue facilitated by growing populations boosting business.

What makes you the best person for the job?

Architectural design background that envisions quality of physical-life environments through zoning, code, and facilitating knowledge matching the right developers to Englewood’s specific needs.

What is the biggest issue facing your district or the city as a whole, and how will you approach that issue?

Proactively not allow developers whose business models differ from Englewood’s Fowler continues on Page 21

Why do you want to serve on city council?

I’ve always had an interest in local politics, but previously my work schedule disallowed city council participation. I recently retired and earlier this year spoke with Mayor Randy Penn, who suggested I run to take his place on the city council. Specifically, I am running because I see a need for another voice of cooperation and leadership. Englewood is facing several critical issues including an aging infrastructure, growth and economic development, and managing city services including police and fire departments. Our city council needs forward-thinking members who can work with other councilmembers toward solutions, not roadblocks.

What makes you the best person for the job?

Politics is the art of compromise where both sides get a win. Not digging in our heels and getting nothing done. I believe that I am the Grazulis continues on Page 21

Ode to an ‘extra ordinary’ poet

FACES AMONG US

Kelley Kovar, director of Littleton Adventist Hospital’s oncology services, with a quilt made by cancer survivors. Photo by Jennifer Smith

HELLO

...

My Name Is

A glimpse of the people in our community

KELLEY KOVAR Director of hospital’s oncology department My background I’m the director of Littleton Adventist Hospital’s oncology services line, and we just opened our new radiology oncology center. This has been the dream for quite a few years. It’s the final piece of the puzzle that was missing. We always had medical and surgical oncology services. But now, with the radiation, it will

be amazing for our patients to get all of their care here.

What sets us apart It’s more specialized radiation that we can provide. Half of our patients are breast cancer patients, and the type of machine we purchased, the linear accelerator, is what treats that the best.

It can deliver specialized radiation and really target a tumor, and not damage as much of the surrounding tissue or nearby organs.

Why I’m proud of our department I’m just so proud to be able to provide comprehensive care for the people in our community, so they don’t have to go somewhere else. And we have the most amazing team throughout every part of our program. Our theme is “hope,” because that’s what we’re trying to provide for our patients.

Jenna Zecchino, 20, sits on the sofa in her home, a leather-bound notebook open on her lap. Slender fingers trace her carefully printed words as she reads aloud in a rhythmic, unhurried cadence: Ann Macari Move with the wind.

Healey Move with the glory and make it a story.

Move somewhere far and move close to touch the star.

“Move is a great word to start a poem about,” she says, long brown hair framing her face as she looks up and flashes a buoyant smile. Her feet, clad in pink, sequined shoes, hang short of the floor.

She turns the page. This poem is called “Miracle.” “I think it was about prom, because I remember getting kissed at prom.”

She reads: I feel like a miracle just happened to me.

I don’t know how or why.

All I want to do is say I am so happy right now.

The thing is, Jenna’s always happy.

And like the title of her poem, she is somewhat of a miracle — not only in how she fought her way into this world, but also in how, like a fairy sprinkling magic dust, she leaves a trail of joy in her wake.

“I don’t know how she can be that happy all the time,” says Makayla Albers, 20, Jenna’s best friend and a junior at Doane College in Nebraska, inspired in part

by Jenna to become a special education teacher. “She definitely makes me happier when I’m around her.”

Jenna weighed three pounds when she was born, induced eight weeks early because she had stopped growing. Her cerebellum also had not fully developed, and because doctors couldn’t figure out exactly what afflicted Jenna, they assigned her a maybe-diagnosis of cerebral palsy, says her mother, Julie Zecchino.

She endured many surgeries, a feeding tube and numerous therapies. At a year

Jenna Zecchino always chooses to focus on the best in others because it makes her happy. Courtesy photo old, she weighed 12 pounds. Doctors repeated at each visit that her growth was “not normal” and that she wasn’t meeting developmental milestones.

But Julie and Jenna’s dad, Al Zecchino — the two are now divorced but remain good friends — determinedly rejected the “not normal” label.

And Jenna happily did, too.

Extra Ordinary Poem: Sometimes I just feel like I am extra ordinary. A extra ordinary person can be who they want to be.

A special needs student at a Highlands Ranch high school, Jenna graduated with her class in 2014. That year, students elected her homecoming queen. She is a gymnast and was a cheerleader. Last school year, she took two classes at a local community college, earning an A and a B. She has a boyfriend, Devin, of 3 1/2 years — the one who kissed her at prom. She is a preschool gymnastics coach at a local athletics club.

The journey hasn’t been easy.

The most difficult part, her mother says, revolved around social issues.

ENGLEWOOD CITY COUNCIL AT-LARGE CANDIDATES Danielle Holley

Amber Jorgensen

Amy Martinez

Rita Russell

Danielle Holley and her husband, Jason, have lived in Englewood area for about five years and bought a house in the city two years ago. The 38-year-old Holley is in project management and marketing, and does some legal secretary work for a Colorado housing company.

She earned her bachelor’s degree in marketing and international business from Northwoods University in Michigan.

This is the first time she has run for political office, but she has volunteered with the Community Association since 2010 and has served with the statewide Manager Licensure Task Force.

Her husband has worked in business development and they have two dogs.

Amber Jorgensen, who has lived in Englewood for more than 30 years, is one of four candidates running for the two at-large seats on the Englewood City Council.

Jorgensen is a teacher who received her bachelor’s degree from the University of the Pacific in California and her master’s degree fron the University of North Texas.

After college, she continued her studies overseas for several years.

She has volunteered her time on the board of directors for a homeless shelter for 10 years and she has volunteered her time for a number of years to several senior living facilities.

Jorgensen’s father was born in Denmark, married her mother and came to the Denver area where he worked for Lockheed Martin.

Why do you want to serve on city council?

The “depot issue” two years ago caught my attention. When we moved into Englewood, I started watching what our council does and how our city runs.

It’s important to me that our hometown is well-cared-for, has a balanced budget, and that it is a place where people and businesses want to be. I think I can help steer us in the right direction and help give a voice to my fellow citizens.

Why do you want to serve on city council?

I would like to serve on the council at this critical time in Englewood’s development because the current quality of life that we enjoy in Englewood is in jeopardy.

Every aspect of projected growth must be watched and acted upon to protect our enviable way of life that we currently enjoy.

Amy Martinez tossed her hat in the ring as a candidate for one of the two at-large representatives on Englewood City Council.

Martinez is a project manager for Webolutions, a strategic marketing agency.

She attended Englewood schools and graduated from Englewood High School.

She continued her education at the University of Colorado-Denver, earning a bachelor of arts degree in communication.

She has not served in an elected office but has served on the Englewood Public Library Board and on the Englewood Cultural Arts Commission. She has served as chairman of the Cultural Arts Commission since 2012. She has served as a volunteer on several political campaigns and took part in a candidate training program in early 2015.

Martinez’s family has lived in Englewood since the 1950s and her mom grew up in Englewood, attended Englewood schools and has worked in the city for more than 40 years.

She was born at Swedish Medical Center in Englewood in 1979 and bought her first home in the city in 2014.

Rita Russell is a candidate to serve as an at-large representative on the Englewood City Council.

Russell is a retired small business owner who has lived in Englewood for 54 years.

She is an Englewood High School graduate who attended Colorado State University for two years on a music scholarship studying chemistry and attended the University of Denver in the pre-pharmacy program for three years.

She said she had no background in politics until she ran for city council two years ago. Since her run for office she has attended most city council meetings and study sessions. She has also spoken to the council on issues including the budget, apartments in Englewood and the fire department.

She and Daniel, her husband of 45 years, have two children and four grandchildren.

What makes you the best person for the job?

My entire career has been based on working for and with HOA boards of directors. Naturally these budgets, capital improvement projects, reserve studies, committees and more are smaller than those of Englewood, but they operate in much the same way. If elected, I will join council already understanding how many of the moving parts work. I do my homework, I show up on time, and I’m ready to participate and get things done.

What is the biggest issue facing your district or the city as a whole, and how will you approach that issue?

It’s hard to pick just one issue, but I’d have to say: Englewood’s aging infrastructure and population. From this one concern stems a litany of related issues that we need to plan and budget for.

With our operational budget just barely balanced, I’m concerned that we will have to make some tough choices — similar to the loss of our fire department — in the near future. I plan to work hard and collaborate with anyone who also sees these issues. It won’t be easy, but we can put in the effort to find the best solutions to problems our city needs solved.

What makes you the best person for the job?

I will approach every issue in a way that will look out for and protect the current way of life for citizens in Englewood, and will not allow the wonderful aspects of life in Englewood to be sacrificed in the name of growth.

I teach in my own studio in Englewood.

Englewood has been very good to me and my family; I have been helped in many different ways both socially and financially from Englewood and I would love to give back to the community at this time. My brother currently lives in Thornton and I currently live with my sister and have for many years. I attend the non-denominational church Victory Fellowship in Englewood.

What is the biggest issue facing your district or the city as a whole, and how will you approach that issue?

My goal as a council member will be to make sure that city council’s dealings will be strictly for Englewood’s benefit and that all questions of new development will be open to the public. Our exponential growth needs to be handled in a healthy, prudent manner. We want to maintain Englewood’s existing friendly small-town charm with the future potential of increasing the city’s growth with input of our concerned citizens. By managing our growth intelligently, we will not squander any of Englewood’s bright future. I encourage your input to the council and I ask for your vote

Why do you want to serve on city council?

I want to serve on city council because I am very passionate about making our city the best it can be. Through my volunteer work with the city I have seen how much of a difference being involved actually makes.

I want to work with the community and other council members to make Englewood even better than it is today!

What makes you the best person for the job?

I am the best person for council because I have proven my dedication to the improvement of the city through my years of volunteer service on boards and commissions. I have been a great listener and a great leader for the Cultural Arts Commission, capturing all of our ideas and turning them into a specific, actionable, trackable strategic plan. We have set priorities and accomplished a lot of our goals. We keep track of this on an ongoing basis and provide an annual report to city council. We have also created strong partnerships to help us accomplish our goals of providing more opportunities for our community.

What is the biggest issue facing your district or the city as a whole, and how will you approach that issue?

The biggest issue facing our community is balancing growth and redevelopment while creating a sustainable plan for our future. I would like to approach this in a very strategic manner to make sure development continues at a reasonable pace. I would like to take a look at current and upcoming development projects and make sure we have a plan in place on how to handle the additional residents, traffic and safety.

Why do you want to serve on city council?

I love Englewood and I feel very passionate about serving on city council. A few years ago I started to pay closer attention to things that were going on in our city.

As a former small business owner, I was troubled by the fact that the city was not balancing their checkbook. We all have to live within a budget, but Englewood was borrowing from the future. We need to protect the future of our great city for our children and grandchildren. It is my desire to represent the people of Englewood and be their voice on city council.

What makes you the best person for the job?

I am the only candidate for city council at-large that has attended almost all of the city council meetings and study sessions in the past two years. I have gained a considerable amount of knowledge that will enable me to bring a balanced approach to city council as we work toward solutions to the challenges the city is facing. With my background as a small business owner, I will pay close attention to every aspect of the decisions we make on city council and keep the public informed of all that is going on.

What is the biggest issue facing the city as a whole and how will you approach that issue?

I believe the biggest issue facing Englewood is financial stability. Our new city manager has presented a balanced budget to city council, but this is only the first step.

I will insist on a balanced budget every year, renew efforts to eliminate wasteful spending, provide money for capital improvements and build a rainy-day fund.

We need to attract new commercial and retail development and keep the “welcome mat” out for both citizens and businesses in Englewood. We can make Englewood “The Place to Be!”

ENGLEWOOD CITY COUNCIL, DISTRICT 1 Joe Jefferson Englewood Councilmember Joe Jefferson is running unopposed for re-election as the District 1 council representative.

Jefferson, who was born and raised in Englewood, is the principal attorney of the Jefferson Legal Group located in Englewood.

He earned his bachelor’s degree from Cornell University and his law degree from the University of Denver.

The 35-year-old has served eight years on city council. He invites the public to his monthly meetings, held at 6 p.m. the first Wednesday of each month at the Twin Dragon restaurant in Englewood.

He is not married. His mother is a Chinese immigrant who has owned and operated Twin Dragon for 40 years. His father is retired from the U.S. Army Reserve and is a former police office.

Why do you want to serve on city council?

I believe in Englewood! My family has lived the “American Dream” on South Broadway and I want to help ensure future opportunity! Our community is a wonderful place to live, shop and do business. Together we can ensure future prosperity and an elevated quality of life in Englewood! We have made great strides toward a better and more sustainable future in the last eight years; however, we still have lots of work to do. I am work-

ing diligently in our community’s best interest and I will continue to fulfill my obligations with integrity and accountability to all.

What makes you the best person for the job?

I will continue to serve the people!

I believe that my education and work experience, both professionally and civically, have prepared me well to be a strong representative for the people and a strong advocate for our community. I understand that the city relies heavily on the tax revenues generated from our local businesses and that we need to partner with our businesses to support our local economy. I have the energy and enthusi-

asm to be available to the people, as well as provide a fresh approach and vision for Englewood’s future.

What is the biggest issue facing your district or the city as a whole, and how will you approach that issue?

I will work to ensure a sustainable future. Unfortunately, our biggest issue is financial. We can ensure the financial future of our great city by continuing to control spending and by growing sales/ use tax revenues through support for our local businesses. I will continue to work to make our city’s operations more efficient and prioritize our expenses. I will continue to work to restore Englewood’s appeal as a place to live, shop and do business.

Grove neighbors hope to make their case Dispute centers on whether or not garage is private

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Neighbors of a proposed apartment complex have retained an attorney and launched a GoFundMe page in an effort to stop the project from being built.

“This … project would be squeezed into a neighborhood of historic homes, casting a shadow on the homes across the street, snarling traffic and dwarfing the iconic courthouse,” writes Advocates for Littleton in an appeal for donations.

City staff on Sept. 4 approved The Grove, a multimillion-dollar, mixed-use project by Zocalo Community Development at 2100 W. Littleton Blvd. It will have 160 high-end apartments for people 55 and older, along with nearly 11,000 square feet of retail space,

a parking garage and an amphitheater.

“I consistently hear from empty-nester residents who are ready to downsize but want to stay in Littleton,” said Mayor Phil Cernanec. “Littleton has limited options for those who want an alternative to a singlefamily home.”

The plan is similar to two others put forth in the past by developers interested in purchasing the property from attorney Steve Anderson. He bought the building, which formerly housed InterRural Electric Association and the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office, in 2003. He remodeled it into modern office space and moved in, taking advantage of its sweeping view of downtown Littleton and the Rocky Mountains.

“But I don’t think the building belongs here,” he said in 2013. “It needs to be something so much better than what it is.”

The last project, in 2013, required a rezone and public hearings. It eventually fell to a council vote of 6-1 after vigorous objections from the public. But city staff

determined that the new plan falls within the current zoning, so it was approved administratively.

“Whether it’s a residential deck or a commercial project, city council expects staff to review all applications for compliance with the city code,” said Mayor Pro Tem Bruce Beckman. “We have a strong history in Littleton of respecting private-property rights.”

But the citizens group questions that premise. It has a long list of arguments, but the main one has to do with the fact that the current zoning says no more than 50 percent of the site can be residential — a requirement meant to encourage retail uses that contribute to the city’s general fund.

Zocalo deemed the parking garage commercial to meet the requirement, saying the spaces will be leased separately from the apartments to tenants who want them, with any extras available for the public to lease.

The city’s position, said City Manager Michael Penny, is that the code defines just two

types of parking garages, private and commercial. Since this will be available for use by the public, that just leaves commercial.

The citizens group sees it differently and hopes to raise $30,000 for legal costs to make their case. As of Oct. 12, they had raised $1,210 from 19 people.

“In this case, the city has relied on flawed interpretation of zoning law to force the project through without proper public scrutiny,” said Peter TenEyck, who lives just east of the site. “This development will ruin the quality of life for those living in downtown Littleton, the Sterne Park neighborhood as well as other adjoining neighborhoods and all those who enjoy our historic town.”

The downtown merchants, however, welcome the project.

“It’s a use by right, and increasing the density around the downtown area will only help the businesses here,” said Greg Reinke, president of the Historic Downtown Littleton Merchants.

A safer smoke? Entrepreneurs say yes Littleton now home to two ‘vape’ stores

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com For the last two years, Lili Phounesavath has just sat back and watched as her business got totally vaporized over and over.

But as the owner of a store called Vapo Smokes, Phounesavath thinks that’s a pretty good thing. On a recent Friday afternoon, her little store in the Broadway Square shopping center, 5501 S. Broadway, was filled with a steady stream of mostly millennials looking to light up an alternative to cigarettes.

“We don’t do any advertising, it’s just mostly word of mouth,” said Phounesavath.

“We’re honest on what we sell people, and what’s not right for them.”

To “vape,” as it’s called, one needs an electronic gadget filled with vape “juice.” It’s inhaled like a cigarette, but emits more vapor than cigarettes do smoke. The flavored juices may or may not have either tobaccoderived or synthetic nicotine.

When you consider that cigarettes have literally thousands of chemicals, proponents of vaping say it’s safer and even a way to help smokers quit.

“I quit the first day I started vaping,” said Phounesavath. “Once you start, and you have a cigarette, your cigarette starts to taste stale and it smells very bad to you.”

Until recently, Vapo Smokes was the only store selling such products in the area. Cantina Vapes has opened in the former Quality Auto Sound building, 309 W. Littleton Blvd., which had been vacant for about two years.

The owners are going all out, with work under way to create a science fictionthemed vaping lounge. They plan on having

live music, video-game stations with projectors, vapor-blowing contests (think smoke rings), movie nights and a place for vapers to just hang out.

“We want to bring the community together and offer a place everyone feels comfortable coming to, to take a load off, enjoy themselves and maybe make some friends,” said store manager Carter Lowden.

Lowden says he never smoked cigarettes, but took up vaping as a hobby to placate his sweet tooth. He likes experimenting with different flavors, like blueberry muffin or lemon meringue pie.

But assistant manager Justin Walsh says his mom, who had smoked for 25 years, quit by vaping and even weaned herself off of nicotine. The juice comes with different levels of nicotine from about the equivalent of a pack of cigarettes a day down to zero, allowing for gradual reduction.

“I’ve probably helped 100 people quit smoking, and that is so gratifying,” said Walsh.

While the official verdict is not in on whether vaping is better for you than smok-

ing, proponents point out that the American Lung Association and other organizations that have come out against it fail to make a distinction between vaping and electronic cigarettes, which are mass produced by tobacco companies.

Both Vapo Smokes and Cantina Vapes make their own concoctions in house using just vegetable glycerine as a base, propylene glycol, which is a liquid alcohol also found in asthma inhalers, the same kinds of flavoring found in soda pop and other food products, and nicotine if the customer wants it.

Still, Littleton City Council is currently considering a ban on smoking downtown, which includes all forms of tobacco and electronic devices, though it wouldn’t affect either of the vape stores. And while the Colorado Clean Indoor Air Act doesn’t specifically address vaping, many bars and restaurants are proactively forbidding e-cigs and vaping.

“The advocacy we’re trying to preach is to understand that there is a difference,” said Walsh. “But we totally agree that we need to be respectful.”

Littleton Lions lauded

V

Team earns national recognition Staff report The Littleton High School girls’ varsity soccer team has been honored with a national award for academic excellence. The recipient of the High School Team Academic Award from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America, the team is one of only three schools in Colorado to receive this award for the 2015 spring season. To be eligible for the award, a team must have a combined GPA of 3.25 or higher. The LHS soccer players were far beyond this benchmark with an cumulative GPA of 4.09. This is the 17th straight year that the team has been honored with this award.

The team also received the NSCAA Gold Award for Team Ethics and Sportsmanship. This was given at the end of the season for completing the entire 2015 spring season without receiving either a yellow or red penalty card. Only five schools in the country attained the Gold Award.

Valdes running unopposed in District 2 Incumbent council member Jerry Valdes and his wife, Mary Pat, live in the Aberdeen Village neighborhood. They’ve lived in Littleton for 29 years, and they raised their two grown daughters there.

Valdes served 12 years on the city’s planning commission, and he has also served on the Arapahoe County Ethics Committee and the Arapahoe County Citizen Advisory Budget Committee. He’s a member of Historic Littleton Inc. and Valdes Friends of the Library and Museum.

Valdes, who works in property management, graduated from the University of Northern Colorado with a degree in business administration, emphasis in smallbusiness management. He also works for the Denver Broncos Football Club as the spotter for the statistics crew during home games.

What is your position on urban renewal?

When used properly, UR can be appropriate. However, the way it was used in Littleton over the past couple of years, while legal, was not an appropriate use.

What is your relationship like with the various

local activist groups, i.e., Sunshine Boys, Citizens for Rational Development, Citizens for Littleton’s Future and Littleton Strong?

Were you recruited by members of any of them?

Prior to being elected to city council, I occasionally attended Sunshine Boys meetings. My relationship with many of the members of the various groups is good, whether we agree on the issue or not.

I appreciate all citizens expressing their concerns at public meetings, whether I have heard from them numerous times or for the first time.

What is the best way to ensure Littleton’s future economic viability?

For decades, Littleton city government has successfully worked with entrepreneurs and a variety of types of businesses throughout the city to provide assistance in many forms. It can be a fine balancing act between the city staying out of the way of commerce while creating regulations for the benefit of the citizens.

The bottom line is that there is no “one best way” to ensure Littleton’s future economic viability. Littleton’s economic viability requires citizen involvement.

Citizens must never be complacent and allow others to take care of things for them.

Fire, police endorse three candidates Two incumbents and a newcomer get their nod for city council

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com The city’s police officers and firefighters lined up squarely behind three candidates for Littleton City Council on Oct. 18: Debbie Brinkman, Andrea Brown and Bill Hopping.

“After thorough review, these candidates have shown themselves to be dedicated to public safety, effective change, leadership and the long-term health and success for Littleton,” the Littleton Police Officers Association said in a news release. “We believe each of these

candidates share our vision and desire to deliver the highest quality police services to our citizens.”

The Littleton Firefighters Association said its members “overwhelmingly” support the three.

“We believe these candidates strongly support public safety and your firefighters,” reads the release.

Brinkman, the incumbent, is facing a challenge from longtime local activist Carol Brzeczek in District 4. Hopping is hoping to defend his District 1 seat from newcomer Brenda Stokes. The incumbents have both been endorsed by the South Metro Denver Realtors Association and an assortment of former mayors.

Brown is the associations’ only endorsement in the at-large race,

The 1942 Boeing Stearman PT 17 biplane is used as a teacher-training plane for Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Museum. Photos by Alex DeWind

Among the crowd was Lucille Wise, a veteran who was enlisted in Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) from 1943-45 during World War II. “Our job was to replace males who were pilots so they could fight in combat,” she said.

Exploration of Flight Center takes wing Air & Space Museum opens new facility

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com A yellow 1942 Boeing Stearman biplane with an open cockpit flew over Centennial Airport — a rusted B-25H Barbie III was parked on the runway below.

The parade of classic planes drew a crowd for the opening celebration of a new flight ramp.

Visitors included World War II veterans, students and teachers from Wings Aerospace Academy, aerospace leaders of Colorado and community members.

“Thank you to Centennial Airport for being the best place in the world for something like this,” said Greg Anderson, CEO and president of Wings over the Rockies Air & Space Museum.

Wings Over the Rockies opened its flight ramp on Oct. 14, marking the start of its Exploration of Flight Center, a flightbased, education and technology center along 15 acres of Centennial Airport.

The center will include a Spreading Wings Teacher Flight Program. One teacher from every school in Colorado’s Front Range will get the chance to fly a plane.

“We will have many features dedicated to aviation and education,” Anderson said.

The development is funded by the $21 million Wingspan Capital Campaign and has received $9 million in pledges to date, according to a press release from Wings Over the Rockies.

The development will begin its next construction phase in 2016 and will be completed in the following years, said Anderson.

“This is an amazing milestone for us,” said Colleen Murray, director of advancement.

South Suburban Halloween events Staff report Spooktacular The annual safe “trick or treat” family KINNEY Joy E. Kinney passed peacefully October 15, 2015 at the Life Care Center in Colorado Springs.

She is survived by her 3 daughters and son. Joy had 5 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren.

Joy was born in Colorado Springs and attended elementary school at the old Ivywild School and graduated from the Lewis Consolidated School in Monument. When she was seven years old she was one of the first to be awarded an art scholarship to what was then known as The Fine Arts Center, but is now the Bemis Art School.

In her youth Joy and her dogs were frequent models for neighbor and famed Colorado Springs photographer, Laura Gilpin.

she taught grades 3 and 5 in Littleton, Colorado, frequently incorporating art into all subject matters.

While teaching, Joy continued her training in art, taking classes frequently to learn new techniques.

Though some classes were stateside, she also traveled to Mexico, the former Yugoslavia, Scotland and England. Joy was member of the Littleton Art Depot where she taught children’s art classes, participated in art shows, and displayed her art. Her artistic side extended to making pottery, much of which has her interpretations of horses, cats and dogs painted on it.

Growing up in the foothills of Colorado, Joy loved the outdoors and all it had to offer as subjects for her art. She continued her art by participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Memories in the Making art program where numerous pieces of her artwork were selected to be shown and sold at auction.

At her request, there will be no funeral service.

Please consider making a donation in her memory to The Alzheimer’s Association or Pikes Peak Hospice.

The family wishes to extend their gratitude to the staff of The Life Care Center of Colorado Springs for their caring support.

So when people began to complain about items not related to this specific election showing up on the table, the city attorney advised simply removing the table.

“Anti-abortion or anti-gay or anything can be placed when we provide a space,” he said. “To avoid getting into the content debate, we removed the table.

Televised shopping a case of volume sales I shop online for just about everything except grapes and potatoes.

My new ceramic-top stove, my washing machine and my snowblower were all chosen after online research.

I bought a humidifier online. I bought a dehumidifier online. They cancel each other out, so I don’t know what I was thinking.

I have Amazon Prime. If I need art supplies, they are here the day after tomorrow.

Everything is here the day after tomorrow.

It’s unbelievable. And dangerous. It makes shopping and spending too easy.

I think that’s the plan.

But I have never shopped on TV. Home shopping channels scare me.

Not because of the selections, but because of the personnel. They’re not much different than the characters who try to get you to discover God with a credit card.

They seem like ghoulish cheerleaders, and it’s just for handbags and rotisseries.

These channels must be highly successful because they go on and on, 24 hours a day, year-round.

The enthusiasm that some of these sales reps express is disturbing. About clothing and jewelry and infinite multi-colored plastic tubs to save and store everything in your kitchen.

Consumers have been vulnerable to sales pitches forever. You have heard of snake oil salesmen?

The supposed derivation of “snake oil” is that it comes from the mispronunciation of “Seneca oil.”

York and Pennsylvania region, would rub cuts and scrapes with the petroleum collected from oil seeps” (Wikipedia).

There is one woman in particular who gets so excited about everything that she is offering, no matter what it is, in very, very limited supplies, for a very, very limited time only, and at a ridiculously low price, that it seems like she is getting turned on.

As it were.

Austrian-born Wolfgang Puck shows up now and then, and I always wonder if he talks like that around the house.

His accent is very annoying to me, but maybe that authenticates his credibility for some, or simply makes him seem more exotic than Bobby Flay.

I know that he could undo the accent. It might be good for marketing, but it is not good for Craig.

As I said, it doesn’t matter what is being sold, they are always thrilled about it. And they go into great detail about something that may have been sewn or assembled in a sweatshop somewhere that I have never heard of.

I wonder if it is sincere.

Or if they roll on the floor with laughter when the segment is over.

They often talk on the phone with someone who has made the purchase and who is rhapsodic about it.

So customers do exist.

Unless these are actors pretending to be customers and are standing — and smirking — just off camera. It wouldn’t surprise me.

Shopping can be addictive. It has been proven.

The Internet and home shopping channels are enablers because of their inordinate convenience.

I used to have to drive across town, find a parking space, maybe on a cold or soggy day, and then make eyeball product comparisons without the benefits of reviews.

Now I can just walk into my office with some black coffee, sit down, listen to some music, and do my research.

You don’t have anyone named Beulah, who is working on a commission, hovering over you.

You can read tens of reviews before making a decision.

Amazon Prime makes it too easy. Free shipping both ways.

It’s very tempting.

And my back yard proves it.

A 24-pack of plastic lawn flamingos is only $89.99. I’m not kidding.

October is often spooky month for investors October can give Wall Street the jitters.

This year is no exception, but with a few new twists thrown in that have investors looking over their shoulders.

We already had the blood moon, a stock market correction and a stalled Fed. Mix in some stormy weather and shorter days to add to the ominous mood. There is just something different about this time of year.

Here are some things to keep in mind as we start the last quarter of 2015.

Uncertainty about when the Federal Reserve Board will raise interest rates rattled the bond market and took a swipe out of most equities as well. It seemed strange during the very volatile days of August and September that the bond buyers were absent.

Those who sold their equities were not buying bonds, therefore not helping to offset the declines in stocks with gains in fixed income.

This is likely due to the concerns over a rate hike that could push bond prices even lower.

Therefore there remains a lot of cash on the sidelines while investors weigh their options. If they buy bonds before a rate hike, they could lose value quickly. If they buy equities and the correction lingers until after earnings season, there is still a risk, even if it is short-term.

A publication of

The expectations for third-quarter earnings declined again for the second time.

The economy continues to search for a reason to expand in the now seventh year of recovery but is having a hard time finding one. Many investors wait on Patricia Kummer the sidelines with no FINANCIAL strong motivation to STRATEGIES buy until the gloom has lifted … And they will likely regret it and wait too long.

The U.S. is the largest and strongest economy in the world. So despite all of the reasons to avoid short-term risk in the markets, there are many appealing opportunities going unnoticed.

• Earnings season always creates volatility depending on which company is reporting that day. While many corporations have lowered expectations, often the surprise is to the upside. The continued low interest rates have fueled growth. The main drawback will

be companies depending on growth overseas and the energy sector.

• China has devalued its currency and announced revisions in its growth estimates down to the 7 percent range. While this is a setback that affects every nation doing business with China, if the bad news is out and they are able to recover from this point forward, emerging markets could be surprising for those with a very long-term perspective. China growing at 7 percent still trumps the U.S. almost three times over.

• Europe escapes recession with the central bank promising to shore up countries in trouble. This is similar to our Quantitative Easing, which spurred the stock market to above-average positive returns for five years.

If this “free money” spurs higher corporate profits in the Eurozone, foreign stocks could provide a nice return over time.

• Many economic data points in this country remain positive, including manufacturing, housing, unemployment and consumer sentiment. It is hard to be pessimistic when your house values just hit an all-time high and automakers are enjoying record sales.

The need for a place to detain enemy combatants, unfortunately, will not go away any time soon, so unquestionably we need a facility like GTMO.

The rare moments when Jenna isn’t happy stem directly from others’ unpleasantness.

“I can’t really take people fighting or yelling at each other — that really makes me upset,” she says. “And when someone yells at me, I get really upset.”

That’s when she turns to those she loves, and music — singing and dancing on a backyard deck or in her bedroom.

I don’t think about what makes me upset and lets me down. I think about what makes me happy and lifts me up off the ground.

A moment of boredom in her bedroom, coupled with a love of music, inspired Jenna to start “writing like crazy.”

Her poems, tender and insightful in their simple brevity, spin off the lyrics of songs that touch her in one way or another. She

to close the Guantanamo Bay detention camp only to finance the incarceration of enemy combatants within the United States and to extend to them the same constitutional rights guaranteed to American citizens.

There is broad bipartisan opposition to President Obama’s plans to transfer GTMO prisoners into the United States, both among members of Congress and the American people.

For our nation’s security, I implore President Obama to halt his reckless plan to close GTMO and place many of the world’s worst terrorists into our own backyards.

Hikes connect cancer survivors Live by Living inspired by woman who fought breast cancer

By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com Dan Miller admits he doesn’t have numbers to prove it, but he knows in his heart that “wilderness therapy” demonstrated its worth in his wife’s final years.

Julie Wrend had already been diagnosed with breast cancer and gone into remission by the time Miller met her in 1990. The couple quickly fell in love and embarked side by side on outdoor adventures, including an annual trip to one of the 10th Mountain Division huts in Colorado’s high country.

Even when the cancer returned, Wrend refused to let it slow her down. Five months after a hysterectomy in 2001, she was completing a five-day, 30-mile hike through the fall colors.

“Anytime she had a setback with cancer, the most important thing was to get back out, even after surgery, just walking around the block to get stronger to go hiking again,” Miller says.

The Parker resident believes the excursions had a beneficial impact on multiple levels: it gave Wrend a tangible goal, the exercise made her feel better, and being outdoors was therapeutic.

In honor of his late wife — who succumbed to cancer in 2007 after a 19-year battle — Miller created Live by Living, a nonprofit foundation that leads groups of 14-18 patients, survivors and their caretakers on hikes to Wrend’s favorite place. They also get together regularly for walks at local parks and hikes on trails in the Denver area. Naturally, the groups gain a sense of camaraderie.

“It can be an isolating disease, but it affects a lot of people,” Miller said. “It’s about the connections they make with people who are going through something similar.”

Diane Wendt, of Fort Collins, went on the group’s most recent hut trip in September and says that’s precisely what happened to her.

Wendt did not expect those connections to be so powerful and organic.

“You can joke about stuff, laugh about it, and also cry about it,” said Wendt, who was 24 when she was diagnosed two years ago with leukemia.

“There really is no judgment there because they have been in your shoes.”

Miller established a goal to raise money to buy land and build a hut of his own, a place of “solace” to bring patients and survivors of any type of cancer, and name it after Wrend. While still working toward that goal, he is honoring his late wife the best way he knows how. The hikers are brought together by their experience, but cancer is never the focus of the trips. The purpose is to enable the patients and survivors to get away from the stress associated with treatment. It’s also meant to be a motivating force.

“People have the strength to do these things internally and we’re just helping them access their own inner resources,” Miller says.

Since 2009, Live by Living has led people into the wild, including the all-important caregivers and family members who have gone through the ups and downs that come with the illness.

Volunteers prepare the meals, bring supplies to each destination, and lead the groups in meditation, yoga or music therapy.

The walks and hikes are free to the survivors

Julie Wrend, who died in 2007 after a long battle with breast cancer, inspired the creation of Live

by Living.

Live by Living took cancer survivors to one of the 10th Mountain cabins in late September. and funded by corporate and individual donations, as well as grants from nonprofits like the George Karl Foundation. Live By Living is having its own fundraiser Nov. 6 at The Denver Club.

The largest benefit is leaving the worry behind and soaking up the freeing sensation of being out in nature. Miller is confident that the impacts, although immeasurable, go a long way.

“She lived longer than average for (a) stage-4 (cancer patient),” he said about Wrend. “I can’t prove it was because of the outdoor stuff, but I know it made it better.”

For more information or to volunteer, call 303-808-2339 or go to www.

LiveByLiving.org.

Wendt, who met Miller when he was running a booth at a “Stupid Cancer” event for young adults, was so convinced of the benefits that she has plans to start survivor walks in northern Colorado. Because she was so often stuck inside during her treatment, Wendt was “recharged” by going outside with like-minded people.

“Now that I’m done with treatment and feeling healthy, I’d love to take some people who are (going through treatment) on some walks,” she said.

Lakewood Pentecostal church starts Highlands Ranch location

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com Pastor Dannie Hood makes his way to a small stage in the Ranch View Middle School cafeteria. His voice is deep with a Southern twang. He wears cowboy boots, gray slacks, a purple-and-pink paisley dress shirt with a topcoat.

He turns to his audience of about 20 people: “You can forget about all the poisons and toxins of the spiritual body when you praise to the Lord.”

His voice booms in the high-ceilinged, expansive space. His congregation listens atten— number of tively, waiting people in Landmark for the Holy Tabernacle’s main Spirit to move campus in Lakewood them.

‘The Bible isn’t just a book. The spirit of God is something that is real.’

Congregation member had a direct experience with God. Pentecostals study the fundamentals of the Bible but also rely on experience.

They believe in speaking in tongues, an unknown language that signifies God’s presence. They’re baptized in Jesus’ name when they first speak in tongues with the Holy Ghost.

And their services are unique — energetic and spiritually vibrant, punctuated with song and physical expression that members say reflect their abundant love for God. Prayer is also important because it ignites the Holy Ghost.

“You can feel the moving of the spirit of the Lord,” says Krystal Gibson, a member of Landmark Tabernacle for many years.

Andrea Day and her husband, Jesse, have attended Landmark Tabernacle’s main campus in Lakewood since they moved to Highlands Ranch about 11 years ago.

They attended a Bible study nearby at Hood’s home for 1 ½ years before orga-

nizing Landmark Tabernacle South, the church’s first satellite location.

“Our vision was always to grow and have our own space here in Highlands Ranch,” Day said.

At Landmark Tabernacle, the service begins with song. Lori Hood, director of music and Hood’s wife, stands at the front of the stage with a drummer, bass player, pianist and three singers behind her.

Her voice echoes through the room as she sings. The energy shifts. The men and women start singing, shouting, jumping and waving hands in the air.

The room quiets as Hood steps onto the stage. His topic this evening is cleansing the spiritual body.

“The negativity around you day to day can drain you,” he says. “You need that spiritual B12 — that Holy Ghost Red Bull.”

Hood paces back and forth. Some in the audience yell “Right! Right!” Others nod in agreement. One woman fights back tears. A man shakes his head back and forth. Everyone is moving in one way or another.

Pastor Dannie Hood and his wife, Lori, held Bible study in their living room for a year and a half before opening Landmark Tabernacle at Ranch View Middle School in Highlands Ranch.

WHAT IS PENTECOSTALISM? It’s a branch of evangelical Christianity.

Its basis is fundamentals of the Bible.

Its beliefs are rooted in the Book of Acts in the New Testament.

It believes in personal experience with the Holy Spirit through talking in tongues.

Its worship is passionate and outward.

“You can really feel the love of God and feel him speaking through,” said Natalie Hood, 21, the eldest of Hood’s four children. “It’s a very outward worship.”

The service ends how it began — with song.

A few women wipe away tears and clear their throats. Hood mingles among the congregation as members shake hands and hug each other. They smile as they leave the cafeteria, where a tranquil stillness has replaced the exuberant energy.

“Some people go to church as a tradition,” Day said. “We go to develop a relationship with God.”

Tour touches on history, beauty New Mexico, Colorado trip offers insights into cultures

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com A number of years ago, members of the Littleton Friends of the Library who shared an interest in history organized a trip to visit a historic Western fort. The trip also involved good food and conversation and a look at interesting spots most hadn’t seen before. Since then, trips have been organized most years: to Kansas along the Santa Fe Trail, where forts were built to protect merchants and settlers; to several New Mexico locations; north to Wyoming and tales of Custer; and to some former military sites in Colorado.

On Oct. 8, a big green bus headed south from Littleton toward New Mexico, with more than 50 members on board. The plan was to look at four different cultures — and hopefully, some gorgeous gold aspens. The trip was organized by veteran members Anita and Roy Kannaday and Barb and Stu Brandt, with planning bolstered by a previous trial run by the quartet.

Pueblo was the first destination, with a look at Victorian wealth and elaborate lifestyle exemplified by the Thatchers, who built the 37-room Rosemount Mansion in the early 1890s. The property was named for Margaret Thatcher’s favorite flower, and pink rhyolite from Castle Rock was the proper color. It cost about $100,000 to construct and furnish — an enormous amount

A placita inside the Martinez Hacienda, an early home and trading place on the Santa Fe Trail, located in Taos.

This old heavy-duty cart must have hauled food, ammunition, hides, wool and many other loads along the Santa Fe Trail to the Martinez Hacienda in Taos, where it now rests in the sunshine. Someone suggested it was an early U-Haul. Photos by Sonya Ellingboe at that time. Beautiful woodwork, Tiffany chandeliers, hand-painted ceilings, English tile on fireplaces made it a true showplace.

Rosemount is one of the historic homes in Colorado operated by History Colorado as part of the museum system. Lunch in the Carriage House Restaurant is a possible add-on.

The group headed south toward Taos, across La Veta Pass with a stop at Colorado’s Fort Garland, established in 1858.

Here was a look at a military culture, once commanded by Kit Carson (and never attacked). It is maintained as a museum and an interesting stop to see how those early soldiers lived — including a company of Buffalo Soldiers.

Arrival in Taos was in late afternoon, with dinner and a

performance by a family of Native American dancers, who explained the ceremonial aspects of the chants and dances and of beautifully crafted costumes.

Taos Pueblo is said to be the oldest continuously inhabited community in the U.S., with some adobe structures believed to be 1,000 years old. The tour guide, a college boy, said he, like many others, lived outside the pueblo where water and electricity are available, but families retain an ownership of a pueblo home and many maintain it. (Adobe needs annual care.) An ancient cemetery surrounds the ruins of the original San Geronimo Church, built about 1619 by Spanish priests with Indian labor. Forced Catholicism and slavery led to the Pueblo Revolt in 1680.

The difficult history continued as settlers moved in, plus U.S. troops under Territorial Gov. Charles Bent. Today, it is a National Historic Landmark and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where Native Americans teach visitors about their past and present.

On a parallel time track, Chimayo was a Spanish colonial village, built in the foothills north of Santa Fe. In the late 1600s, Spanish settlers built the site in the fertile Santa Cruz River Valley, with church added in the early 1800s.

The Sanctuario de Chimayo offers sacred dirt that draws pilgrims each who believe it to have healing properties. Among the original settlers were families of weavers, who still produce textiles and run shops in the village where they demonstrate their craft — and sell the colorful products to visitors, as well as wood carvings and pottery from nearby villages. The Rancho de Chimayo, in a restored hacienda built by the Jaramillo family, is a favorite dinner spot in

the village.

The morning of Oct. 10 brought the group to the Martinez Hacienda on the edge of Taos — a look at Spanish colonial society as well, built in stages starting in 1804 by Severino Martinez as a home and commercial hub on the Santa Fe Trail. Thick adobe walls and a windowless exterior made it function as a fort if necessary. He also brought trade goods in from Mexico. This is carefully restored and operated as a museum.

Finally, the travelers headed through aspen-filled mountains toward Cimarron and the St. James Hotel, circa 1870/80, which was once a stop on the Santa Fe Trail. It takes pride in the bullet holes one can still see in the walls and has a series of portraits of famous gunfighters who shot each other up in the bar.

Another facet of the frontier — and one could think that that was still happening when the refined Thatchers built their elegant home in Pueblo.

Super store’s opening was super indeed It was easier to name who wasn’t at the RH, The Gallery at Cherry Creek (Restoration Hardware’s super store) opening soiree on Oct. 14 in the Cherry Creek shopping center then to attempt to call out all 2,500 attendees.

The hearty party, ably choreographed

by Aiello Public Relations, moved the admiring hordes through all four floors of the home design store that took over the space formerly occupied by Saks Fifth Avenue.

While the lookie-loos gawked at all the fabulous fixtures — most notably the chandeliers — they were fueled with fine fare from Epicurean Catering.

The party was so massive that the city posted an electronic sign early in the day along First Street warning of traffic issues that evening. Plus, much of the garage parking at the mall was blocked off in anticipation of the valet needs.

The new RH store is quite a sight to see. Don’t miss the fourth-floor rooftop garden with spectacular views and outdoor furniture for sale.

DaVita to be anchor tenant Global private investment firm Starwood Capital Group, through a controlled affiliate, and East West Partners, a Denverbased developer devoted to building, Penny Parker selling, managing and supporting MILE HIGH high-quality real LIFE estate, announced plans to develop a new 250-foot-tall office building in Denver’s burgeoning Union Station neighborhood. DaVita Healthcare Partners, the leading provider of kidney care services, will serve as the property’s anchor tenant.

One of the last buildings to be completed in the Union Station area, the $190 million project — called 16 Chestnut — is essentially two buildings in one, as

it fronts both 16th and 17th streets. In expanding its headquarters beyond its current location across the street, DaVita will occupy approximately 265,000 square feet of office space at 16 Chestnut, with its own entrance and lobby.

“DaVita believed in our vision for the Union Station neighborhood long before it came to fruition. We are honored that they are entrusting us in making a second home for their teammates,” said Chris Frampton, managing partner at East West Partners.

Groundbreaking is scheduled for July 2016, and DaVita is targeting a move-in date of August 2018. Remaining space available for lease will come to market in January, and the entire building is slated for completion in October 2018.

Book chronicles life of remarkable woman Crawford put imprint on endangered city

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Fifty years ago, a young woman was determined to create a “gathering place” for Denver, similar to the ones she fondly recalled in Boston and other New England towns — a place to meet friends for a drink or dinner and “celebrate the city.”

In July 1965, Dana Crawford drove and searched through Denver’s older areas in her “puke green” convertible, which broke down one day in the 1400 block of Larimer Street, considered skid row at the time.

While some of the crusty local characters got her engine running again, she had time to really look at the buildings and recognize good lines and strong possibilities. She went to the library to research the history and learned that this block was really where Denver began …

The 50-year anniversary of Larimer Square is celebrated this year, calling attention to Crawford and her extensive effect on Denver, as she is celebrated and honored.

For several years newsman/author Mike McPhee of Denver tried to talk Crawford into letting him write a book about her and her accomplishments and she kept refusing — but one day, she called and said “yes.”

The result is a handsome, photo-filled volume that makes a fine contribution to the Colorado history shelf: “Dana Crawford — 50 Years Saving the Soul of a City.”

McPhee appeared at Bemis Library in Littleton on Sept. 22 to talk about this remarkable woman, who has been honored locally and nationally for her skill and imagination as a developer. In 1995, The National Trust for Historic Preservation honored her with its highest award.

McPhee started his lecture with her early years in Salina, Kansas, her education in Kansas and in New England and her arrival in Denver to work in public relations (with William Zeckendorf among others) — and to ski and party.

An early Rocky Mountain News photo of Dana Crawford planning the restoration of Larimer Square. Courtesy photos She met and married John Crawford, had four boys and focused in earnest on her dream. She used her charm and businessoriented mind to convince friends and acquaintances to invest with her — partly with a model of the block she built at home.

At the time, the Denver Urban Renewal Authority was formed, with the objective of demolishing the old buildings in what we now call LoDo. Many were leveled, the land turned into parking lots when no developers appeared to build on them.

The 1400 block on Larimer was on the demolition list and Crawford knew she had to move quickly, despite opposition and bankers’ reluctance to finance.

On Dec. 28, 1965, a banjo beer hall called Your Father’s Moustache opened and a line of customers formed around the corner. Other businesses followed: the Bratskellar, the 1421 Club, Poor Richard’s leather shop, Gusterman’s Silversmiths

(which is still there) and Café Promenade.

Crawford and her husband managed the area at the time, dealing with leases, collecting rent and selecting compatible tenants. She started a couple of businesses herself: Victoriana Antique Jewelry and The Market, modeled after Dean & DeLuca in New York City.

In 1986, she sold the square to the Hahn Company, which had purchased the Tivoli Brewery nearby. In 1970, she worked with others to start Historic Denver when the Molly Brown House was threatened with demolition.

In 1980, she purchased the run-down Oxford Hotel, and after a rocky start and two bankruptcies, partnered with Walter Isenberg and Sage Hospitality to renovate and remarket the Oxford, where the wonderful Cruise Room bar is located.

At some point, Denver Post writer Dick Kreck started calling the lower downtown area “LoDo” and the name stuck,

A young Dana Crawford, included in Mike McPhee’s book, shows an already-confidant charming young lady. although McPhee says Crawford didn’t like it.

She worked with John Hickenlooper to create the Wynkoop Brewery and Lofts (where she lived for a time).

Eastern city lofts in restored warehouses intrigued her and she started with the Edbrook and Acme Lofts despite those who said no one would want to live down there. They sold well and she continued into the Central Platte Valley area where she developed the Flour Mill Loft at 20th and Little Raven, where she lives today.

And that area led to involvement with Union Station, where she again took a leading development role — and where the hotel is, appropriately, named for her.

The book ends with a photo of Crawford, at 80, waving a magic wand at the July 2014 opening of Union Station.

McPhee’s book is available at Tattered Cover Bookstores.

One will watch to see what happens next as a result of Crawford’s energy and imagination.

Museum exhibit plays with words ‘Polysemic’ offers delight in Englewood venue

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Polysemic: a word, phrase or symbol having more than one meaning, having multiple messages …

Joel Swanson, whose striking solo exhibit, “Polysemic,” opened Oct. 10 at the Museum Outdoor Art’s Indoor Gallery at Englewood Civic Center, is an artist, designer and writer who is director of the technology, arts and media program at the University of Colorado-Boulder, teaching classes on digital art, media theory and the history of design.

The exhibit, running until Feb. 27, 2016, offers insight into a most interesting mind — and a way of interacting with one’s world, as Swanson twists, rearranges, positions letters and words — including the spoken word in the Sound Gallery at the rear of the venue.

“Language is typically flat, but what happens if we play with that flatness? This exhibition experiments with the forms of language. The artworks use language, and forms related to language, to translate, transform, repeat and contextualize with the goal of exploring the conventions of language from a new perspective …,” says Swanson’s wall text.

A walk into the gallery finds the viewer surrounded by black and white shapes, words, patterns, symbols and more — some in motion, most still and precise. It’s inviting from the entrance, drawing the eye to shapes on either side: “Box Pattern Series” uses forms of take-out and other boxes, flattened and then cut out in steel and powder-coated in black on the right. “This project examines the relationship of naming to objects. This is a collection of the boxes of things that I bought, then deconstructed the boxes and replicated the forms of the box patterns …”

Castle Rock/Franktown

“Envelope Patterns” is on the left, steel forms patterned from flattened envelopes, painted white. “Envelopes enclose language to protect it from the elements. The envelope also conceals the contents for the sake of privacy,” he wrote.

The next steps lead to a centered group of white pedestals, each bearing small three-dimensional Zapf dingbats. A dingbat is a form, such as an asterisk, which is used between letters. We are accustomed to seeing them flat.

Forward to a lighted pedestal topped with a glass panel with tumbling black dingbat images. We are used to seeing them still.

On the wall is a neon sign: “I KNOW WHO YOU ARE BUT WHAT AM I.” A jumbled stack of three-dimensional words that are not really words, placed floor to ceiling, are what Swanson calls “Captchas — those little online devices used to authenticate humans as humans when we log into various secure websites.” He has collected them over the years. Examples: nicetish, tameless, tailward, leurches, parchy …

A wall is lined with untitled “NO” wallpaper, “repeating it across two dimensions, thereby complicating its supposed simplicity,” the artist writes in a guide to the exhibit.

(Be sure to pick up a guide at the desk — it entails more interesting language uses!)

The White Gallery at the back has footage and sound from the Challenger space shuttle disaster, with some muffled speech.

He plays some clips in reverse and says: “For me, this project is a marker for the day that I first saw death in a mediated form and as such was the day when I first started to form my sense of subjectivity …” Sobering.

Finally, the Sound Gallery offers “New York Times Crossword Puzzle Forms Paired with Front Page Headlines from the Same Date.”

Allow some time to look, read, react and just enjoy the extreme cleverness of this artist.

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Sherlock Holmes and his 221 B Baker St. address are enjoying renewed worldwide popularity in TV, film and now an imaginative exhibit, “The International Exhibit of Sherlock Holmes,” which arrives Oct. 23 at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science.

Readers will be familiar with the stories developed more than a century ago by Arthur Conan Doyle, a doctor-turned-author. His popular books about Sherlock Holmes combined science with crime-solving methods of his time. Keen observation, testing and deduction are still key to crime-solving, although the tools may have evolved.

Doyle’s books were set in the Victorian society of Holmes’ contemporaries and some of Sherlock’s methods are valid today. He influenced the development of techniques for solving real mysteries.

The exhibit includes elaborate stage sets, exhibits in Victorian style, hands-on equipment, costumes and props that should appeal to the many dedicated Sherlock fans, as well as to families with curious kids. (We hope those children will discover the very readable books as well. While written for adults, with sometimes complex plots, they are well-crafted, entertaining reading for anyone 10 and older.)

A visit to another world always stretches the imagination.

Visitors will observe a crime scene

CANDIDATES FOR ENGLEWOOD BOARD OF EDUCATION Kevin Ebert

Gary Richardson

Sharon Scheminske

Dagan Thomas

Kevin Ebert is the only Englewood Board of Education member seeking re-election in November.

Ebert owns a small accounting business that specializes in investment and tax accounting. He earned a bachelor of science degree in accounting from Metropolitan State College.

His first elected office was his election to his current term on the Englewood School Board. He has also served as vice chairman on the Englewood Arts Board of Trustees and has served on the Englewood Education Foundation Board.

Ebert and his wife have been married for 24 years. Their older daughter graduated from Englewood High School and is attending Metropolitan State University and their younger daughter is a sophomore at Englewood High School. They have lived in Englewood for 22 years.

Englewood native Gary Richardson’s name is seeking a position on the Englewood School Board as a write-in candidate.

Richardson attended school in Englewood and graduated from Englewood High School. He went to work for Englewood School in 1979 as a bus driver and eventually held the position of supervisor of operations, maintenance and transportation before he retired from the district. He now drives a bus part time for a senior citizen’s group.

He went to work after graduating from high school, and in his employment he attended a variety of workshops and seminars as well as gaining knowledge from on-the-job training. He holds a commercial driver’s license and trained the district’s bus drivers as well as city employees who needed to earn the commercial driver’s license.

This is the first time he has sought elected office. He is single and keeps in touch with his two brothers who live in the Denver metro area.

Because of her interest in local government and in the schools, Sharon Scheminske is a candidate to serve on the Englewood School Board.

The 16-year Englewood resident is the wedding director at Trinity United Methodist Church in Denver. She also teaches the early childhood music program at the church, teaching music literacy through movement and sound. She also is property manager for the apartment building her husband built.

She graduated from Green Mountain High School and graduated from the University of Colorado-Boulder with a degree in environmental and atmospheric science.

She also received her master’s degree in business administration and organizational management from the University of Colorado-Denver.

She has never sought elected office but learned about local government by working for the Special District Association of Colorado for a year.

Scheminske and her husband live in southwest Englewood with their two children. They like swimming, skiing, camping and cheering for the Broncos.

Dagan Thomas has launched his campaign for election to the Englewood School Board.

Thomas, who has lived in Englewood for 10 years, installs custom stone and tile.

He attended Western Kentucky University and this is his first time seeking elected office.

He has been active in the school district. He and his wife have three daughters who are all attending Englewood schools.

Why do you want to serve on the board of education?

Since my oldest daughter entered kindergarten at Clayton, I have wanted to be involved in my children’s education. I truly believe a school district is only as good as the direct involvement of the parents. It is my belief that educators and administrators, no matter how talented they may be, can’t do an adequate job educating without parent support and commitment to their children. I am seeking re-election to continue my contribution to this district and commitment to the kids of Englewood School District.

What makes you the best person for the job?

In my opinion, experience is what makes me the most qualified candidate.

I have served for the last two years on Englewood’s Board of Education. Also, my business background will continue to add value to the BOE. I have over 25 years of experience as an accountant specializing in tax accounting and investment accounting. I am also currently serving on two corporate boards and two nonprofit boards.

What is the biggest issue facing the school district, and how will you approach that issue?

In my opinion, the biggest issue facing this school district is the underfunding of public education. This district is facing another round of budget cuts for next school year on top of the $1.5 million in budget cuts that were made for the current school year. I will work in conjunction with the superintendent to make Englewood School District’s voice heard loud and clear to the politicians at the state capitol that their decision to underfund public education is undermining our children’s education. I will also work to strongly encourage those politicians to visit our district and see firsthand what effect their decisions are having with our kids and public education.

Why do you want to serve on the board of education?

As a former employee and citizen, I wish to do my best to see that the students get the best possible learning environment that we as a board can give them along with utilizing our current buildings to their fullest extent. The district needs to finds ways to keep our quality teachers and hire the best out there. It is my hope as a board member to find ways and means to accomplish this.

What makes you the best person for the job?

My vast experience with the older buildings will help enlighten the other board members as to what is needed and not needed to make the learning environment a safe and secure place to learn. I do not believe in money being spent frivolously for unnecessary or unneeded items. I will make every effort to ensure money goes toward our students and retaining quality certified staff.

What is the biggest issue facing the school district, and how will you approach that issue?

As with all school districts across the state, funding is main issue facing us all.

We as a board must collectively lobby the state to increase funding to districts.

It is my hope as a board member to see what is available for alternative funding and along with fellow board members seek out funding so that our students to continue to be the best they can be.

Why do you want to serve on the board of education?

I want to serve on Englewood’s Board of Education because I want to become more invested in the community. I am committed to Englewood, and serving to better the lives of, not only my children, but the children of my beloved neighbors, is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Throughout my life I have learned that true happiness comes in the form of being a part of a community, and what better way to enjoy that happiness is there than volunteering within that community. I will be extremely honored if I am selected to be of service to Englewood through the work of the Board of Education.

What makes you the best person for the job?

I am the most qualified candidate because I have been actively involved on a school and district level for the past four years. I have served as a classroom volunteer and School Accountability Committee member at Charles Hay World School throughout this time, and I have been a co-chair leader of the Englewood School District Accountability Committee for the past three years. This experience has made me acutely aware of Englewood School District’s current celebrations and challenges.

What is the biggest issue facing the school district, and how will you approach that issue?

The most important issue facing the Englewood district is school financing and budgeting. There is a balance between exemplary classroom programming with high quality teachers and keeping district spending within the budget. This balance is getting harder to reach each year, and the tough work of maintaining this balance is difficult. I am familiar with the intricacies of Colorado school financing laws and procedures, and I will work tirelessly to achieve win-win solutions to this problem for Englewood without compromising teacher compensation and student achievement and growth.

Why do you want to serve on the board of education?

Englewood is growing rapidly, which can only mean more growth in the schools. I want to be a helpful part of that growth. Having three kids enrolled in Englewood schools has also opened my eyes to the incredible staff that teaches here. They show undeniable care for their students’ educational and personal needs. Constantly working to make them better students and community members. My wife and I chose Englewood because of its small-town feel. I would like to help ensure proper growth where needed, without sacrificing this. Englewood is loaded with tradition. Having 101 graduating classes, I would like to do my part to ensure we have many more.

What makes you the best person for the job?

Most of my working career, I have been a businessman. Having run a successful tile business for 13 years, as well as opening and running an Artisan pizza restaurant off of South Pearl Street. Gaining much financial knowledge by successfully building a team of 24 young adults, that brought profits from $150k a year to $1.5m, in three years. I work well in a team environment. Understanding that everyone has a voice and a valid opinion.

I have gained expansive knowledge on using all resources as wisely as possible.

Many times sourcing needs through community outreach. These experiences in running small businesses have prepared me for the many challenges and difficult decisions the school board must face.

This, with my tenacity and overflowing enthusiasm, is why I feel I may be the best candidate for the job.

What is the biggest issue facing the school district, and how will you approach that issue?

Finances. Colorado has had a stranglehold on K-12 financing. I would like to approach this like any challenge I face, head on. Educating the people, as much as we can, on the many challenges the budget faces. Provide as much information about bills like TABOR in plain English, so the people can really understand what they are reading and voting for. Work with the schools to create exciting new fundraising events, beyond the normal door to door.

Expanding into more outside funding from the local corporations and small businesses. Consistently reminding them that, neighborhood driven, public education is what makes Englewood special, and is what will ensure a brighter future for students and our community.

What makes you the best person for the job?

As an accountant, homeowner, mother and concerned citizen, I’ve worked for our community on the local, county and state level, as a board member, volunteer, city council member, advocate and grassroots organizer for over 15 years. I know how government is supposed to work and how to get things done.

After founding the Englewood Citizens for Open Government I generated three citizen initiatives, overwhelmingly passed by Englewood voters in the last two elections, including the right to vote on the sale of park land.

I know the issues, how to engage our community and get their voice heard.

needs. Facilitating Englewood’s vision and implementation for a great city to be clear and coordinated throughout all participating parties including complementary developers. Finding opportunities that complement Englewood’s vision for enriching vibrant environments, whether within multifamily urban or single-family suburban zones.

candidate who can best be a positive source of solutions to keep our City moving forward.

What is the biggest issue facing your district or the city as a whole, and how will you approach that issue?

The important issues are the loss of our Englewood Fire Department, overspending, empty businesses, and a lack of leadership and direction. We need to stop selling off land to shore up our finances. We need a rational economic development plan, to protect our tax base, make growth pay for growth and provide not only for our safety but protect the culture and charm of our neighborhoods and our city.

What is the biggest issue facing your district or the city as a whole, and how will you approach that issue?

If our citizens aren’t safe nothing else matters.

Public Safety with a well-managed and wellstaffed fire and police department are the number one priority. Englewood needs to be proactive rather than reactive when managing these vital services. I believe we can work to achieve an excellent level of emergency services even during periods of population growth, but we cannot exceed our fiscal abilities.

People prop up pollinators Local efforts take aim at global epidemic

By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com Douglas County residents are spearheading local initiatives to combat a global issue: the rapid decline of pollinators.

Monarch butterflies, honey bees and a host of other insects share space on a rabbitbrush shrub in a pollinator garden at an official monarch way station recently certified by the nonprofit Monarch Watch. Built by Douglas County with the help of Eagle Scout Jack Vasquez, the pollinator garden and way station at the Hidden Mesa Open Space trailhead south of Parker provide a source of milkweed, nectar and shelter on the western fringe of the monarchs’ migratory path through North America.

It’s just one of the components in a grassroots effort to save the pollinators, which the North American Pollinator Protection Campaign estimates are responsible for one out of every three bites of food eaten in the U.S, including nuts, fruits, coffee and chocolate.

Because of economic impacts to the honey industry, much of the focus has been placed on saving bees. But there are parallel campaigns to prop up all pollinators, from bats and flies to butterflies and birds.

“A lot of people don’t put the whole ecosystem together,” says Jackie Sanderson, natural resource specialist for Douglas County Open Space. “They just say, ‘I like plants, but I don’t like bugs.’”

But, she points out, one often cannot survive without the other, and the ramifications from the domino effect of decline are frightening to consider.

A plea to ‘bee’ educated In recent decades, bees have taken on a growing list of enemies — new pathogens and parasites, impacts to their habitat from development, and the aggressive use of pesticides that don’t distinguish between threatened larvae and other insects.

Perhaps the most fearsome foe is Colony Collapse Disorder, which the U.S. Department of Agriculture classifies as a “mystery problem” that has caused the global bee population to plummet. The disorder results in a dead colony with no adult bees or dead bee bodies but with a live queen and honey and immature bees still present.

Annual losses from the winters of 2006-11 averaged about 33 percent each year in the U.S., with a third of these losses attributed to the disorder by beekeepers. The winter of 2011-2012 was an exception, when total losses dropped to 22 percent, according to the Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service. But in the spring of 2014, beekeepers reported massive colony die-offs and there was a scramble to split surviving colonies to ensure long-term

survival.

President Obama’s order in June 2014 to establish a federal task force to discover ways to stave off the epidemic came at a time when several other studies were being conducted by international health organizations, universities and the Apiary Inspectors of America.

But Douglas County residents aren’t waiting on any results.

Taking meaningful action Diane Roth, chairwoman of the Parker Scientific and Cultural Commission, has been keeping bees with her husband, Jeff, since they moved to town in 1992. It wasn’t until the last year or so she noticed that, even though Parker hosts an annual honey festival, there was no proactive ordinance permitting beekeeping in the town of Parker. She did some research and realized a homeowner had to seek the town’s permission to keep a colony.

“There are beekeepers in the town of Parker who weren’t aware that their hives weren’t technically allowed,” she said.

After approaching elected leaders, the rules were relaxed and bees were declassified as a “vicious arthropod” in the town’s home rule charter Sept. 21, Roth said. Parker now has the “best ordinance in Colorado,” Jeff Roth told the council.

It’s one that allows for two colonies on a quarter-acre lot and up to six colonies on a one-acre lot.

The elimination of restrictive regulations “just made sense” given the resurgence in urban beekeeping and changes that have taken place in communities throughout Colorado, including Castle Rock, Diane Roth said.

Hanging with ‘Norma Milkweedseed’ Despite being recently certified, the monarch way station at the Hidden Mesa Open Space — like others in Rowley Downs and the Alta Vida Alpaca ranch — has been thriving since last year. That’s due, in part, to the work of Jeannine Colley and her mother, Norma Grigs. Since last fall, the two have driven around Douglas County finding and marking milkweed plants, the only source of food for monarch caterpillars.

After collecting as many pods as they can during a fewweek period in the fall, they spend the winter removing the seeds and sorting them into pouches that are then handed out to anyone willing to help. The activity has earned 87-year-old Grigs the nickname “Norma Milkweedseed.”

Colley and Grigs got a few hundred milkweed plants started at an experimental garden at Hidden Mesa and planted a handful in the pollinator garden. The native milkweed plants take some care early on, but ultimately become self-sufficient and produce a vibrant flower.

Colley and Grigs were inspired to do something about the decline in monarchs after watching “Flight of the Butterflies,” a 2012 documentary that told the story about the long journey the monarchs take between Canada and

Photo by Chris Michlewicz their winter homes in the Michoacán highlands in central Mexico. Colley became “fascinated with these creatures that are so amazing and can do this 2,500-mile flight.”

With monarch numbers dropping sharply in the last decade, the immediacy was clear and Colley and her mother created a public education campaign that has hit local schools, senior centers, gardening groups and fairs to drum up support. Sanderson, the county’s natural resources specialist, backed the effort and provided space in the experimental garden for milkweed seedlings.

“We think of it as just being the bees — yes, they’re the majority — but native pollinators are also important,” Sanderson said.

Colley and Grigs are doing their part, starting small and focusing on one area that Monarch Watch has deemed important: establishing milkweed habitats.

“We’re just trying to spread the word about monarchs and that they need help, and encouraging people to plant pollinator gardens that support not only the caterpillar forms of these creatures but the adults,” Colley said.

The pollinators include birds, bats, flies and anything that flies from flower to flower and facilitates the pollination process. Grigs said she always thought flies were “worthless” until she found out they were pollinators.

After hearing about the plight of monarchs, it only seemed natural to do something to help. Visiting schools and educating children early on is part of preserving the monarchs’ future.

“I love their colors and the way they fly, and that was before I knew what a brave and courageous and dedicated little insect it was,” Grigs said. “We can’t let them go extinct.

My goodness, we’ve got to save these gorgeous things.”

Group celebrates Colorado poet Lois Beebe Hayna still at work as she reaches age 102

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com On a Sunday afternoon, Sept. 27, a circle of women gathered at Littleton’s Bemis Library to celebrate a Colorado Springs and Denver poet, Lois Beebe Hayna, and read from her many published books. At 102, Hayna is still writing and teaching, although she doesn’t see well.

In 2014, she was awarded the Colorado Authors’ League Lifetime Achievement Award, newly established. In 2009, Regis University awarded Hayna an honorary Ph.D., and there is a collection of her papers at the university’s Dayton Memorial Library, where the Lois Beebe Hayna Creative Writing Center was dedicated in 2010.

Hayna has touched the lives of hundreds of Colorado writers with her classes and critiques, including Barbara Lundy, who escorted her to the reading. She recently moved to Michigan to live with a granddaughter, but returns to Colorado frequently to be with friends.

In a time when girls often left school early, her Wisconsin mother insisted she complete high school, and she got a scholarship to attend the University of Wisconsin at Madison, where she majored in home economics, but took as many creative writing classes as possible.

Life happened and the writing dried up.

She really started writing poetry in her 60s and published a number of books. In following years, she met with writers at her breakfast table, helping them construct and polish their words.

She still writes on a computer, although she is not able to read what she’s written. A new book is in the works, which will have a cover designed from a painting by her local friend, Mary Kay Jacobus of the Heritage Fine Arts Guild, who organized the reading event.

Poet Lois Beebe Hayna, 102, appeared at Bemis Library in September for a poetry reading from her books. Photo courtesy of Beatrice Drury Her thoughtful poetry is based on ideas that she turns over in her mind. In her recent book, “Lagniappe,” which means a little extra, she has a group of untitled poems, including:

Stone in a pool.

From that moment Only ripples and re-ripples, the water shuddering on and on From the initial disturbance. Unable to forget. Or unwilling to forgive?

Lest you think for a moment Any small happening lacks its consequence. Lest you fail to notice its moral. Do you tire of morals as I do? I say: Let something occur and be done. Be quieted.

I am lifetime-weary Of unshocking those ripples.

Cherry Creek’s Sam Hallam (2) heads the ball away as Araphoe’s Wilmer Ramirez turns away during the Oct. 13 Centennial League game.

Arapahoe adjusts in win over rival Creek Warriors hold on to beat Bruins 1-0

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Arapahoe and Cherry Creek are longtime soccer rivals, but the outcomes haven’t been going the Warriors’ way until Oct. 13.

The Warriors, which came into the Centennial League game at Arapahoe with a 1-5-1 record over the past seven games against the Bruins, defeated Creek 1-0 in a match between league unbeaten teams played at Arapahoe.

“I’m happy,” said Arapahoe coach Mark Hampshire. “We started off a little bit slow. I’m not sure why. Maybe it was kind of the excitement and nerves playing against Creek. We love playing against Creek. They are such a solid team. We calmed down. We got our game plan back in action. We adjusted our formation

a little bit and we had a senior captain come up big for us.”

The win over Creek was Arapahoe’s 10th straight game and pushed the Warriors close to the Centennial title. The Warriors (6-0-1 and 10-1-3) clinched the league crown with a 0-0 tie against Cherokee Trail on Oct. 17.

Cherry Creek, which came back after the loss to Arapahoe with a 4-1 win over Smoky Hill, improved to 4-1-0 and 8-4-1 overall.

Key moments Wilmer Ramirez was that senior captain who came up big for Arapahoe when he scored on a left-foot kick from just outside the goal box during the 43rd minute.

“I’m not known for being able to take shots with my left so it was kind of a surprise for me with it going in like that,” said Ramirez. “It was just in the heat of the moment I guess. It was just the way we started working as a team in the second half.”

Key players/statistics Chris Grauberger assisted on Ramirez’s goal, and Arapahoe goalie James Conley was credited with 11 saves.

After the Ramirez goal, Cherry Creek kept plenty of pressure on the Arapahoe goal although many of the Bruins’ shot sailed wide of the net.

They said it “I’m not a big fan of playing defense,” Hampshire said of Arapahoe’s late-game strategy on packing the defense in front of Conley. “They pressed. We had to make some adjustments. Our guys were tired.

They were exploiting some stuff on our flanks so we had to be patient and be smart.

“We have forwards that can hold the ball pretty well. Creek was not going to give up. They are a very good team and well coached. We just had to be smart, and they had chances. That’s the kind of game we expect out of an ArapahoeCreek game.”

“We had our chances, we just didn’t finish,” admitted Cherry Creek coach Chelo Curi. “It just wasn’t our day to finish. We’re playing much better than we were at the beginning of the year. We just have to get a little better. We let them off the hook a few times by shooting everywhere but at the net.”

“Winners find ways to win,” said Hampshire “I’ve always believed that and preached that. It’s a true team, we don’t have a star that everything rests on.

Championships are won that way. I’m very proud of them, but we still have a ton of work to do.”

Curi hopes the loss with help the Bruins.

“We’ll learn from the game and be better,” he said. “You learn more from losses than from wins.”

Going forward The first round of the Class 5A state playoffs begins Oct. 29.

‘Stringy,’ Van Dyken set to join hall of fame Former Littleton swimming coach Maurice “Stringy” Ervin and Cherry Creek swimmer Amy Van Dyken-Rouen will be among those inducted into the Colorado High School Activities Association Hall of Fame during ceremonies scheduled for Jan. 27 at the Radisson Hotel-Denver.

Ervin was a three-sport letterman for the Lions and led them to state football and basketball championships. He volunteered to be the Littleton swim coach when nobody else could be found, although he didn’t know much about the sport. He researched and learned on the fly, which helped him guide Lions teams to 12 boys and girls state titles.

He was always easy to spot at state meets with his purple-checked pants.

And he’s always gone with his nickname of Stringy, which was given to him by his father and former Littleton principal, Maurice Sr., who liked philosopher William Stringfellow.

Van Dyken-Rouen won six Olympic gold medals after a standout career at Cherry Creek, where she set two state records and led the Bruins to four state titles. After suffering a spinal injury, she has become an instrumental spokesperson for Paralympic athletes.

Longtime Englewood High School band director Jeff Gerardi, who is a former director of the Denver Broncos band, will also be inducted. He was the Englewood High School band director from 1967-

1988 and was the citizen of the year in Englewood in 1994.

A solid foundation Mountain Vista knows that a good foundation is an excellent way to build a strong crosscountry program.

Jim Benton Vista coach Jonathan Dalby OVERTIME credits the program at Mountain Ridge Middle School as of the reason for the Golden Eagles’ recent varsity cross-county success.

The Golden Eagles boys have won the past three Class 5A state championships and swept all three (varsity, junior varsity and open) races in the Continental League championships for the past three seasons.

The girls have notched Continental League sweeps three of the past four years and finished in the top five at state in 2012 and 2013.

Stop by Mountain Vista and on most fall and spring afternoons there are a groups of athletes of high-school age and younger running together.

“Coaches Karen Sprakfe, Jermey Estell, Andrea Beckett and Cathie Knutson run the best middle school cross-county pro-

gram in Colorado,” claimed Dalby. “They are the most dedicated group of middle school coaches I have every met and do a great job of focusing on getting kids to enjoy the sport of running, rather than on high-level training before kids are ready.

“Focusing on high-level training when kids are too young is a mistake that I see a lot of club-level teams make. We are fortunate to have a group of coaches at the middle level that want to focus on helping kids create a passion for our sport rather than pushing them too hard when they are young.”

McCaffrey stirs up memories Christian McCaffrey, a sophomore at Stanford, is doing this fall what he did at Valor Christian with his abilities to dominate a football game.

McCaffrey finished with 369 yards of total offense in a 56-35 win over UCLA on Oct. 15. It was the most all-purpose yards this season by any FBS player.

He ran for a school record 243 yards on 25 carries and scored four touchdowns.

He also had a 96-yard kickoff return, but didn’t score.

McCaffrey had 242 yards rushing, four yards on one pass reception and 122 yards on kickoff returns. He now leads the nation, averaging 253 all-purpose yards a game.

Alumni corner Katelin Blosser, a 2013 Wheat Ridge High School graduate, is a junior soccer player at Nebraska Wesleyan and is the Prairie Wolves’ leading scorer with 10 goals and 21 points. She has tallied two hat tricks so far this season.

Championship game rematch Valor Christian doesn’t feel it has had time to build a football rivalry with Cherry Creek since the schools have only played twice.

However, Valor will be seeking revenge when the teams meet for the third time on Oct. 23 at Valor.

Creek defeated Valor twice last season with the first win in a Centennial League game, ending the Eagles’ 28-game winning streak against Colorado teams. The Bruins claimed an epic 25-24 win in last season’s Class 5A state championship game, which denied Valor a sixth consecutive state championship.

Valor (3-0, 5-2 overall) is tied with Grandview for the Centennial League lead while Cherry Creek (2-1, 6-1) is coming off a 28-20 loss to Grandview. Creek is ranked No. 2 in the CHSAANow.com poll and Valor is third.

Cherry Creek wins 41st boys tennis title

Bruins also capture two individual crowns

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Cherry Creek won only two individual championship matches Oct. 17 during the finals of the Class 5A State High School Tennis Championships at the Gates Ten-

nis Center.

Still, the Bruins ran off with the state championship, which marked Creek’s 41st boys title in 44 years, as well as its fourth in a row and 13th in the past 14 seasons.

“We stayed strong throughout, and luckily the whole was greater than the sum of the parts,” said coach Art Quinn.

“It was a great journey, a testament to the steadfastness of our team to just keep coming.

“As always, as most teams go through the adversities of a season what you see is not always what you get. Thanks to our competition for helping us be the best we can be.”

Sophomore Mitch Johnson, a No. 2 doubles champion last season for the Bruins, won the No. 3 singles state title.

Ben Murray and Spencer Buted were the No. 3 doubles champions.

Creek’s Ryan James was the No. 1

singles runner-up, and Robby Hill was fourth at No. 2 singles.

Cherry Creek garnered 35 points in singles competition and 37 in doubles, and finished with 75 points as the Bruins’ quality depth was enough to outdistance second-place Fairview, which had 51 points.

Creek’s Jacob Bendalin and Erin Tennis continues on Page 31

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF OCT. 19, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Some flashes of Aries ire might erupt as you confront an unusually bewildering situation. But you should be able to keep your temper under control as you work through it.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) That marriage ‘twixt the arts and practicality that Taureans excel at once again highlights your enjoyment of much of the week. However, you need to watch any sudden urge to splurge.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Even with all the plusses apparently outweighing the minuses, you still might want to defer an important decision to make sure you have all the facts you need.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) One or two problems might threaten to derail otherwise smoothly running situations at work or at home.

But a few well-placed words should help get things back on track quickly.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) This could be a good time for all you Leos and Leonas in the spotlight to open your generous Lion’s hearts and share the glory with those who helped you accomplish so much along the way.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) You might want to get advice from someone who’s been there and knows these situations better than you do, before investing time or money (or both) in a questionable matter.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Be careful how you handle a workplace matter that seems out of place in the schedule you’ve prepared. Before you act, one way or another, find out who set it up and why.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Your entertainment aspect is strong this week. Besides providing a wonderful break from everyday obligations, sharing fun times brings you closer to those you care for.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Having a weekend fun fest? Your friend or relative who’s down in the emotional dumps could perk up if you find a way to include him or her in your plans.

Super Crossword & Sudoku Answers

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) If you’re in one of those “the Goat knows best” periods, you might want to ease up and try listening to what others have to say. You could learn something.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) That new challenge is getting closer, and you should be out there now showing facts and figures to potential allies to help persuade them to rally to your support. Good luck.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Getting a head start on holiday plans could help free up some time later to spend on other projects.

Meanwhile, a colleague has some ideas that you might find worth discussing.

THINK OUTSIDE THE CEREAL BOX

T

he breakfast table is where many families gather on weekend mornings to start their days with a hearty meal and some equally hearty conversation. Families who have grown tired of cereal or scrambled eggs can forgo traditional breakfast fare in favor of something a little more flavorful and unique, such as the following recipe for “Pan-Fried Eggs and Mixed Mushroom Sauté on Toasted Sourdough Slices” from Betty Rosbottom’s “Sunday Brunch” (Chronicle Books).

Pan-Fried Eggs and Mixed Mushroom Sauté on Toasted Sourdough Slices Serves 4 Mushroom Sauté 1¼ ounces mixed dried mushrooms 1½ cups boiling water 3 tablespoons olive oil 8 ounces sliced brown mushrooms 2 teaspoons minced garlic 1 teaspoon dried crushed rosemary Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper Toast and Eggs 4 ½-inch-thick sourdough slices, halved if the slices are extra large 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 4 eggs Olive oil Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper Rosemary sprigs for garnish (optional)

1. For the Mushroom Sauté: Place the dried mushrooms in a medium bowl and cover with the boiling water. Let stand until softened, 20 minutes. Strain in a sieve lined with a double thickness of paper towels and reserve the soaking liquid. Coarsely chop the mushrooms.

2. Heat the olive oil in a medium, heavy frying pan set over medium heat. When hot, add the brown mushrooms and sauté, stirring often, for 6 minutes. Add the reserved mushrooms, garlic, rosemary, and 1⁄2 teaspoon salt; stir for 1 minute. Add the mushroom liquid and cook, stirring until it has evaporated, 4 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and several grinds of pepper. Remove the frying pan from the heat and cover with foil to keep warm. (The mushrooms can be prepared 1 day ahead; cool, cover and refrigerate. Reheat, stirring, over medium heat.)

3. For the toast and eggs: Brush both sides of the bread slices generously with olive oil. Set a 10- to 11-inch by 25- to 28-centimeter nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat and, when hot, add the bread and cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the toast and cover loosely with foil. When the pan is cool enough to handle, wipe it out with clean paper towels.

4. Add the butter to the frying pan and set it over medium heat. When the butter starts to foam, break an egg into a saucer, being careful to remove any shell fragments, and gently slide it into the frying pan. Repeat with the remaining eggs.

Immediately reduce the heat to low and cook, basting the eggs with some of the butter in the pan frequently, until the whites are firm and the yolks are still soft and runny, 3 minutes.

5. While the eggs are cooking, arrange a toasted bread slice on each of four plates.

Mound the mushrooms evenly over the toast.

6. Remove each egg with a spatula and arrange on top of the mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper and, if desired, garnish each serving with a rosemary sprig.

Serve immediately.

Cooking note: If you can’t find dried crushed rosemary, crush regular dried rosemary in an electric spice mill, or place it in a self-sealing plastic bag and roll over it with a rolling pin.
