DID YOU KNOW INSIDE

The suspect accused of killing an Englewood man who was found dead in a pond two years ago has had his trial moved from November to March.

Mikhail Anthony Purpera, 31, allegedly shot Patrick Murphy, 33, to death on Nov. 12, 2016, according to evidence presented at a 2017 preliminary hearing. He faces several charges, including firstdegree felony murder, aggravated robbery and possession of a Purpera controlled substance, according to the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office.

Purpera was recently convicted in Denver of second-degree murder in a different case and was set for sentencing on Nov. 19.

In the Englewood case, a judge in November 2017 also decided Purpera would face a count of murder with extreme indifference — another firstdegree murder charge.

Novel-writing month lights fire under authors

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A gray-walled basement room might seem like an unlikely wellspring of creativity.

But for the writers who convened in Bemis Library’s community room on Nov. 1, it was the jumping-off point for a month-long flurry of writing and storytelling.

About a dozen people — all women — attended the library’s kickoff party for National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo to those in the know.

Littleton’s dozen join thousands of other writers worldwide who will spend November pounding out novels. The goal for each participant to write 50,000 words before the month is out — that’s 1,667 per day.

“Writers tend to be solitary people, so events like this help connect them with the larger community of writers,” said Emily McCabe, who became Bemis’

teen librarian this summer.

McCabe said she’s always wanted to participate in NaNoWriMo, but graduate school ate up her free time.

“This is a great event for writers of any age, because it teaches you commitment and the discipline of just sitting down and writing every day,” McCabe said.

For participants, though, NaNoWriMo is sometimes more about personal fulfillment.

“It gives me a sense of satisfaction,” said Cat Tapparo, a graphic artist embarking on her sixth NaNoWriMo. Tapparo mostly writes fan fiction, she said — stories using characters and settings from other works. Much of her writing takes place in the “Star Wars” or “Lord of the Rings” universes.

“It’s such a fun escape to imagine my favorite characters going on these adventures I send them on,” Tapparo said.

For others, NaNoWriMo is a way to force themselves toward finishing big

I went to the University of New Mexico so I could do a full semester of study at Chaco Canyon, a remote group of Native American ruins in northwest New Mexico. We camped out in the canyon.

We excavated the Wetherill Trading Post, which was used around the turn of the 20th century.

“I want to challenge myself to finish the novel I’ve been fleshing out in my mind for 15 years,” said Ally Palumbo, a front-end manager at King Soopers.

Palumbo’s novel is about a young man born with supernatural powers called “blood magic.” Palumbo said she’s been outlining the book for years, and is hoping that writing a draft will help resolve some of the plot changes she struggles with.

Others in the room eagerly pitched their own ideas: a nonfiction exploration of the nature of opinion, an epic verse poem about the apocalypse, a children’s book set in the Victorian era, and a biography of Johnny Appleseed.

McCabe said though most of the group’s writing will likely be done alone, she hopes Littleton’s NaNoWriMo participants see Bemis as a place to write.

“Inspiration abounds in a library,” McCabe said. “And we have free wifi.

That’s important.”

Low-income households can apply for weatherization services STAFF REPORT

Arapahoe County’s weatherization program has provided energy conservation services for more than 30 years and has weatherized nearly 8,500 homes in the last 10 years.

The program provides services to low-income households in Arapahoe and Adams counties with households up to 200 percent of the federal poverty guideline ($50,200 annual gross for family of four).

Weatherization services are available to income-eligible owners and renters who reside in single-family homes, mobile homes and multifamily units. A home can receive weatherization services only once, and all services and materials are provided at no cost to eligible households. All employees and subcontractors must pass a background check.

Eligible homes go through an energy audit to identify issues that create inefficiencies. A common

culprit is a lack of proper insulation or appliances and furnaces that do not operate efficiently.

An audit also can identify potential health and safety issues, such as problems with combustion appliances.

Once an audit is conducted, weatherization technicians provide services needed to fix issues and make a home safer, healthier and more energy efficient.

The weatherization process not only makes a home more comfortable year-round, it also provides cost savings for a family — 10 to 30 percent in monthly utility bills.

For information or to apply for weatherization services, contact the Arapahoe County Weatherization Division at 303-636-1982 or go to www. arapahoegov.com/weatherization.

Funding for weatherization services is provided by the Colorado Energy Office and the U.S. Department of Energy, Denver Regional Office.

‘It’s about doing community service’ Arapahoe County Elections Facility gives tour as votes arrive

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Dozens of area residents stood in front of a machine that spit out mail ballots in rapid fire in just one step of the process Arapahoe County uses to count votes.

Matt Crane, Arapahoe County clerk and recorder, led the crowd on a Nov. 1 tour through the county’s Elections Facility at 5251 S. Federal Blvd. in Littleton, where election workers were already deep into processing received mail ballots for the Nov. 6 election.

“I started doing it because it fascinated me how much it takes to get a ballot through the process,” said Kathleen Mendelson, 68, a Denver resident who has helped process ballots for a few years.

The journey for a ballot is long: Vehicles pick up ballots and bring them to the facility, where they’re sorted and weighed, put through the Agilis ballot-sorting machine where signatures are captured, and examined by workers at tables. Workers also verify signatures independently by comparing them to signatures on file on computer screens. Eventually,

The county’s process as a whole involves many computerized steps, and Crane answered questions for the crowd as it watched the Agilis machine shoot out ballots into a row of stacks for collection.

“I like working with these people,” said Lopez, a Centennial resident.

“It’s not about the money — it’s about doing community service.”

Amazon 4-Star store opens at Park Meadows Location features products rated four stars or higher, area’s trending items

BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Shoppers can go from browsing the latest technology to state-of-the-art cookware to the top-selling books in one brief stroll around the Amazon 4-star outlet store, the newest attraction at Park Meadows mall in Lone Tree.

Amazon 4-star opened Nov. 1 and is an assortment of products found on Amazon.com rated at four stars or better.

Real customer reviews and average online ratings, up to five stars, accompany product price tags.

Some displays are advertised as “Trending in Denver,” marking the placement of products with high online popularity from Denver-area shoppers. Other displays are labeled “Frequently Bought Together” and “Most Wished-

The Amazon 4-Star store is made up of products with at least fourstar ratings. Some products are curated specifically to products that trend well online in the area.

NICK PUCKETT For,” popular categories when shopping on Amazon.

“It’s all about product discovery at a place like this,” said Cameron Janes, vice president of Amazon 4-star. “These products are on Amazon.com, but you’re not often exposed to them because you’re searching for your specific thing. Here, we make it really easy to discover something for yourself or for

gifts, and because everything makes that curation bar, you don’t have to worry about if it’s a good product. They’re all good products.”

Danny Kim and his family, who live in Littleton, are frequent shoppers on Amazon.com. His wife and his son, Maximus, walked around the new store on its opening day impressed with the variety of products they loved online.

The Kims stopped to let Maximus try out some of the hottest toys.

“It’s a chance for us to get our hands on the stuff,” Danny Kim said. “It’s more convenient than getting something, then having to wait for it and return it if we don’t like it. If you really like something you can get it.”

Amazon 4-star is just the second of its kind in the United States. The first Amazon 4-star opened in New York in September. The space at Park Meadows was initially reserved for an Amazon Books store, another brickand-mortar Amazon shop, of which there are 17 in the country, focusing mostly on books and tablets.

According to Amazon officials, the company changed its mind and brought a 4-star instead.

Evelyn Scott, a local librarian and Park Meadows shopper, was surprised to see an Amazon 4-star, but said she thinks the store will be useful when trying to find gifts for her granddaughter. Scott said she is an Amazon Prime member and will still likely shop online primarily. Scott said she thinks the store would

be helpful to test out newer products.

“I think it’s interesting that we’re heading so much toward technology and things online, but then we come right back to people still want to touch and see it,” Scott said.

The store also features Amazon’s flagship products like the Kindle e-book reader, Kindle Fire tablet and Ring, an easy-to-use front door security camera. Amazon Prime members are offered a discount price, which matches the product’s online price.

Products in the store are constantly changing, Janes said, reflecting changes in local trends or seasonal products. Janes added that a product is immediately pulled off the shelves if it fails to meet at least four stars online.

The curation process is done

by Amazon employees.

“They’re looking at those products that are selling well and are highly rated and using some human judgment as well. There’s some art and science involved as well,” Janes said. “We’re constantly curating the store and making sure it lives up to the name on the front.”

Providers of help say they need help South metro nonprofit has big mission as donations decline

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A staple of low-income assistance for families in the south metro area says if things don’t change soon, it may have to make large cuts to its operation.

Amid funding cuts and challenging attitudes toward donating to Integrated Family Community Services — which serves Englewood, Centennial, Glendale, Highlands Ranch, Littleton, Lone Tree, Sheridan and unincorporated Arapahoe County — the organization that serves thousands of families and individuals is looking to bridge the gap.

“The reality is, in the future, if the climate doesn’t change, we’re going to be too poor to help the poor,” said Todd McPherson, a leader of Integrated Family, which is located in the southwest Denver metro area. “The next year will really show what direction we need to go.”

The nonprofit, once known as InterFaith Community Services, doesn’t plan to close its doors, but it’s in dire straits as it takes in less money from local governments and continues an uphill battle to make its mission clear

HOW INTEGRATED FAMILY HELPS Of Integrated Family Community Service’s clients, 76 percent are single mothers, and many others are seniors taking care of grandchildren.

From September 2017 through August 2018, Integrated Family gave out 117,873 meals, provided services to 16,337 low-income individuals and worked with

1,908 volunteers, according to a fact sheet.

Services include: • Food pantry • Donated clothing bank • Rent/mortgage or utility assistance • Medical prescription assistance • Transportation assistance • Crime victims assistance • School supplies • Local recreation

to the south metro area. Integrated Family provides food, rent assistance, clothes and even help with bus tickets, gas gift cards and medical prescriptions. Its services also include support for crime victims and transitional housing for the homeless.

But because the list is so long, it’s a challenge to build a recognizable brand — although it served more than 16,000 individuals during the 12 months ending Aug. 31, Integrated Family still needs to get the word out, McPherson said. Its troubles come amid an increasingly prominent homelessness issue in the Englewood area in recent years and sky-high housing costs throughout the metro

area.

“If you think of Goodwill, Arc, Salvation Army or the Denver Rescue Mission, people have a basic idea” of what they do, said McPherson, the nonprofit’s development director. “But for us, it gets complex because you have to tell this big story.”

What’s more, the change from “Inter-Faith” to “Integrated Family” has made establishing connections even harder — and even alienated some partners who pitched in because of the perceived religious ties, McPherson said.

“People believed all along that we were something we weren’t,” said McPherson, noting the nonprofit has connected with atheists, Jews, Muslims and Christians.

Integrated Family doesn’t want to push away, for example, gay people or those of other religions who might have pause in interacting with the organization had it kept “faith” in its name, McPherson added. It’s gotten some backlash from the religious community for the change, which happened in January 2016, but it made the switch partly to address the issue that “interfaith” is difficult to translate into other languages.

“It’s a Catch-22,” McPherson said.

“If we were called something different in the ‘60s, who knows.”

Integrated Family grew out of an effort by community leaders in a garage, McPherson said, and it has come a long way since its establishment in

1964 — it spent more than $1.1 million in the 12 months ending Aug. 31 distributing meals, handing out backpacks and school supplies, and helping families in need in several other ways, including its holiday programs. For Thanksgiving, it provides more than 650 baskets, each with more than 30 food items like stuffing, yams and a “turkey gift card,” and for December holidays, those in need receive food and gifts.

One family who signed up for the holiday programs this year was Kim May, Jeremy Dupree and their 7-yearold son, Chad Kolak, who sat in the nonprofit’s waiting area Oct. 30. Dupree, 44, has a seasonal job operating heavy equipment, and May, 43, cleans houses. They have two other boys, too, and live in Centennial.

“When we signed up, we thought it was just for the holiday package,” May said. “We didn’t know they had all this.”

May grew up in Arvada, and as a native here, she feels like she might have to move out of the area, May said.

Asked what her family needs most, she simply said: “Food.”

Other metro-area organizations that help families like May’s are feeling the financial squeeze, too, McPherson said, either closing or cutting parts of their programs to survive. Denver Urban Matters and the Fresh Harvest Food Bank in Lone Tree are two examples, he said.

Charitable giving increased nationally in recent years, McPherson said, but for Integrated Family, it has declined. Political and demographic changes could be factors, but it’s difficult to know what drives the trends, he added.

People can contact the nonprofit and ask about ways to help, McPherson said, but the best way in this season may be to give cash donations.

“People with good intentions want to give stuff,” such as physical items like clothes, but Integrated Family needs more funding to stay stable, McPherson said. That’s partly because 90 cents of every dollar donated to it goes to programs and services.

It’s all to keep people from falling through the cracks, McPherson said.

“We’re here to stand in the gap,” he said.

Fighting youth suicide requires cultural change, says LPS group Focus on strength, resilience, acceptance, say experts and students

and adult mentors. Now, Peters said, she draws resilience and self-worth from volunteering at her church, playing on the school basketball team and participating in Girl Scouts.

“There’s a light at the end of the tunnel,” Peters said. “Don’t let darkness control your life.”

Responsibility for addressing the struggles faced by young people falls on the entire community, said Dr. Anna Mueller, a sociologist and professor at the University of Chicago.

As part of ongoing research into youth suicide, Mueller studied an affluent and interconnected community that suffered several suicide clusters.

The anonymous community, which Mueller calls Poplar Grove, yielded big lessons about the causes of and responses to youth suicide, she said.

First, the community had strict and narrow ideals for what constituted a good kid and a good family, Mueller said, largely centered around academic and athletic achievement.

Second, the community was highly socially connected, which caused youths to have outsized concerns about living up to community ideals and expectations.

Finally, students in the community felt like admitting their struggles were contrary to the expectation that they make their academic and athletic achievements look easy.

“Kids reported intense anxiety and stress around failure or even thinking that failure might occur,” Mueller said.

“We need to think about the psychological pain that can result from narrow cultural ideals about what good kids are and what a good transition to adulthood looks like.”

The meeting was encouraging, said Laura Smith, a parent of two LPS students who said she attended because she was distressed by the Arapahoe suicides.

“It’s scary, but if I keep thinking everything is scary, I won’t have the hope that this can be overcome,” Smith said. “It starts feeling like a death sentence rather than an illness that can be treated.”

C ol

All too often, young people battle mental health issues in silence and isolation. Winning those battles requires help from their schools, families and community — and perhaps a change in our culture as well.

That was the message at Littleton Public Schools’ second annual public forum on youth mental health and suicide on Oct. 29, part of the district’s Sources of Strength project, which seeks to change unhealthy norms and culture.

For the second year in a row, the meeting followed close after tragedy in the district, following the deaths of two students by suicide at Arapahoe High School in early October.

But an overbearing focus on youth suicide can be deceptive and counterproductive, said Scott LoMurray, the deputy director of the national Sources of Strength project.

“In a community that has experienced a lot of death and trauma, there can be a narrative around that trauma,” LoMurray said. “Even statistics can be misleading. Saying suicide is the second-leading cause of death of teenagers in Colorado is accurate, but there aren’t that many things that kill young people. It can create a false normalization and make it seem more common than it really is.”

Students who already feel hopeless might begin to identify with those stories and statistics, LoMurray said, when the reality is that the vast majority of people who experience suicidal feelings don’t go on to die by suicide.

Rather than focusing strictly on intervening at the moment a young person feels close to suicide, LoMurray said, Sources of Strength focuses on encouraging connection with things that build strength and resiliency: family, friends, mentors, healthy activities, generosity, spirituality, and medical and mental health access.

Students who spoke at the event attested to LoMurray’s methods.

Aria Peters, an eighth-grader at Options Middle School, said making connections to those around her pulled her out of a dark place personally.

“I thought about suicide in seventh grade,” Peters said. “I was suffering physical and verbal abuse — I stopped coming to school and distanced myself from family and friends. Something had to change. I was tired of being told I was the problem.”

At Options, Peters said, she found strength in spirituality, and met student

Bazaar draws a crowd in Englewood More than 100 vendors offer wares at Malley event

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Areas normally used for classes and exercise programs were transformed into spaces for vendors Nov. 3 during the annual Malley Holiday Bazaar.

The bazaar was well attended. The Malley parking lot was full but there was a sign directing people to areas where additional parking was available.

Few parking spaces were vacant for long. Usually as soon as a driver who had finished shopping pulled out of a parking spot there was another vehicle waiting to move in.

Inside the center rows of vendor booths lined the Malley gymnasium and main room plus there were vendors set up in all the classroom areas.

Volunteers staffed the Malley kitchen offering customers the opportunity to stop by for a cup of coffee, a doughnut or other snacks, including breakfast burritos.

The bazaar was held from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. Throughout the day inside Malley, potential customers moved through the vendor displays, checking a wide variety of items available that included but wasn’t limited to Christmas ornaments, hand-carved wooden items, framed original wildlife photographs and a variety of flavors of homemade jelly and jam.

“I first came to the bazaar when I lived in Englewood a few years ago and I loved it because I get almost all my Christmas shopping done at one time,” Mary Simpson said. “I now live with my daughter in Commerce City but I still try to come to the bazaar each year. Just like today I have my daughter and a couple of friends with me. We just love the bazaar.”

TRIAL FROM PAGE 1

“A jury could conclude from the evidence that defendant did not care who his victim was; he simply wanted to satiate a depraved desire to destroy human life,” Judge Phillip Douglass wrote for the Arapahoe County District Court.

Purpera’s trial was scheduled to run in November but was rescheduled for mid-March, according to the DA’s office.

Here’s a look at the details leading up to the trial.

Englewood police Detective Brian Taylor testified in court in 2017 that a man who knew Purpera told him in an interview that Purpera killed Murphy “for the fun of it, if you will — for no reason.” The man told police that Purpera tossed a blood-covered hat —

Hilleary-Wederski was among the 106 vendors who had items on display at the bazaar. by staffing a booth while the booth owner took a break and brought more items from the car.

“My friend makes a lot of crafts and brings them to events like this,” he said. “She likes to knit and crochet. As you can see her work is very nice.”

He said she goes to several events like the bazaar each year and he tried to help her if he can.

“She said she keeps track of the cost of the materials she uses in making the items,” he said. “She said keeps the cost of the materials she uses and donates all the other proceeds to her church. I help her

because we are friends and because of her generosity to the church.”

Cheryl Adamson, who manages the program, said all 106 available spaces were occupied.

“Some of our vendors come every year and some are new this year,” she said. “I filled all our spaces quickly and about 25 other vendors were on the waiting list in case any of those signed up decided not to come.”

allegedly Murphy’s — at him on Nov. 12, 2016. Purpera called the bloody hat a “present” and said he liked the look on the man’s face, according to statements the man gave police.

That man also said Purpera showed him two shell casings and called them “trophies,” according to police interviews. Police found that the gun Purpera had when arrested was linked to casings he also possessed at the time, and also consistent with the bullets found at the scene of the death of 54-year-old homeless man Wayland Busby, at a transient campsite along the west bank of the South Platte River just outside Englewood. Purpera was suspected of killing Busby on or around Nov. 5, 2016.

Purpera was found guilty of second-degree murder and first-degree felony murder in Denver District Court Aug. 23 in that case, according to Kristin Wood, district administrator. He was acquitted of an aggravated robbery charge, Wood said. His

first name is spelled “Makhail” in Denver records.

Authorities found Murphy’s body in the suspected area of his death, in what’s known as the “duck pond” northwest of the interchange of South Broadway and U.S. Highway 285 in Englewood. Police initially searched the area in November 2016 but did not find a body. Taylor told the court that recent snow at the time hindered the search. Murphy’s body wasn’t found until Feb. 11, 2017, when a pedestrian spotted it after the pond was drained for maintenance.

At the 2017 hearing, Taylor, the detective, testified that a man who said he knew Purpera and knew of Murphy said Murphy often bought drugs from Purpera.

Purpera also faces charges of possession of a weapon by a previous offender, resisting arrest, obstructing a law enforcement officer, possessing drug paraphernalia and theft of less than $50 in the Englewood case, ac-

Louisiana officials had previously issued a warrant for Purpera’s arrest for two counts of attempted murder in connection with an Aug. 22, 2016, shooting in that state. Police in Gonzales, Louisiana, chased down tips that Purpera had fled to Mississippi and Mexico, the local Advocate newspaper reported, but while searching Purpera upon arrest, Englewood police found Greyhound bus tickets showing him arriving in Denver Aug. 31, 2016, according to the arrest affidavit.

Police arrested Purpera after a report the night of Nov. 12, 2016, about shoplifting at the Walmart at 601 Englewood Parkway, according to the affidavit.

At the time of the Gonzales shooting in August, Purpera had been out of prison for four months after a five-year sentence for second-degree battery and other charges from prior convictions, The Advocate reported.

Arapahoe County deputy suspected of child sex assault Deputy was arrested by Pueblo County Sheriff’s Office over weekend

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

An Arapahoe County sheriff ’s deputy who worked at the county jail was arrested over the weekend by the Pueblo County Sheriff ’s Office on suspicion of child sexual assault, according to an Oct. 30 news release by the Arapahoe County Sheriff ’s Office.

Deputy John Beck is a non-certified deputy, meaning he only has authority within the jail, said Julie Brooks, spokeswoman for the Arapahoe sheriff ’s office. Beck is facing three

counts of sexual assault on a child by a person in position of trust, and he was immediately placed on leave without pay, the release said.

“I am disgusted by the nature of these charges,” said Dave Walcher, Arapahoe sheriff, in the release.

“Should the allegations prove to be true, his actions have not only forever impacted the lives of the victims; they have also cast a shadow on the great work our staff does every day in service to our community.”

Beck has been employed with the sheriff ’s office since January 2009, and he has had no interaction with juveniles during that employment, the release said.

The Pueblo County case remains an active investigation, the release said, and no additional information or agency photo was released.

Reward offered for information on pawn shop robbery STAFF REPORT

Law enforcement officials are offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of robbers who made off with 20 guns from a Littleton pawn shop in midOctober.

The suspects, described as two young Hispanic men wearing red bandanas over their faces, robbed Pawn Bank at 1360 W. Littleton Blvd. the afternoon of Oct. 17, according to a news release from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and

Explosives, which is investigating the case in conjunction with the Littleton Police Department.

The pair held employees at gunpoint and smashed a glass display case, making off with 20 handguns.

The suspects fled the scene in a black Chevrolet Aveo driven by an unknown third person.

Anyone with information in the case should contact the bureau at 1-888-ATF-GUNS. Information can also be sent to ATFTips@atf.gov or through the bureau’s website at atf. gov/contact/atftips.

Device location for 911 calls continues to improve STAFF REPORT

The Arapahoe County Sheriff ’s Office Communications Center now has the improved ability to receive fast, accurate device location for 911 calls from cell phones via the RapidSOS NG911 Clearinghouse.

Cellular technology gets the sheriff ’s office close to 911 callers who have called on a mobile device, but RapidSOS provides ever greater device-specific accuracy in less time, trimming seconds from response time in an emergency, according to a sheriff ’s office news release.

RapidSOS works for both iPhone and android phones; however, iPhones must be updated to iOS

12. Call takers and dispatchers will receive location information only for phones that have called 911 in the Arapahoe County jurisdiction, and only within the first 10 minutes after the call has been placed. The program does not require users to have location data turned on.

The sheriff ’s office communications center is using the RapidLite, a free version of the platform. In 2019, the platform will be integrated into our Computer Aided Dispatch system. That cost will be funded by the Arapahoe County E911 Emergency Communications Service Authority, which supports six dispatch centers or public safety answering points in Arapahoe County.

Shooting range moves closer to opening Lawsuits and countersuits ongoing; neighbors angry; city defends process

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Bullets aren’t yet flying at a controversial shooting range in the works in south Littleton, but the lawsuits sure are.

Triple J Armory is in the final stages of gaining approval for a shooting range at 8152 SouthPark Lane. The family-owned company, which has operated a gun store at 311 E. County Line Road since 2012, recently moved their retail store to the new location near McLellan Reservoir.

Though city staff have approved Triple J’s permit to complete construc-

tion of the shooting range, it had not been picked up as of Nov. 2.

Progress on the shooting range has been at a crawl since June, when the City of Littleton issued a stop-work order after discovering that Triple J’s owners were building the indoor shooting range without an approved permit.

The project also drew the ire of several neighboring communities and schools, which called the area inappropriate for a shooting range, citing concerns over safety and noise.

The SouthPark Owners Association, or SPOA, which oversees business activity in the neighborhood, filed a lawsuit against Triple J in August, alleging that Triple J didn’t go through a proper approval process, and seeking an injunction to halt work on the project until Triple J submitted architectural change proposals.

A judge rejected SPOA’s request for an in injunction in September, saying

Triple J reasonably believed it had SPOA’s blessing to build, citing an October 2017 email from covenant control officer Channing Odell, which read in part that SPOA “has no objection to the proposed use of the building in question as a retail gun sale/shooting range.”

Triple J filed a countersuit against SPOA in September, saying Triple J proceeded with a lengthy and expensive construction project under the good-faith belief that it was approved.

Triple J is seeking unspecified damages, remuneration and attorneys’ fees in the lawsuit. Representatives of SPOA declined to comment for this article, citing ongoing litigation. Triple J co-owner JD Murphree also declined to comment.

The letter’s signatories received a response from Relph offering to consider a meeting on to-be-determined topics within hours of Relph’s interview with the Independent on Nov. 1.

Catalyst for change Relph said the Triple J situation is a catalyst for change: He is working to have building permits added to the city’s Development Activity List website, an interactive page that displays information about development around the city. Relph also said he’d like to see the city’s relationship with SPOA formalized, so the entities can work together more closely in the future.

A lifelong passion, delivered.

Members of the All Veterans Honor Guard fire the traditional 21-gun salute during last year’s Veterans Day Ceremonies at Fort Logan National Cemetery. The honor guard will again be part of the ceremonies held at the cemetery on Nov. 11 at 11 a.m.

Fort Logan, Littleton among sites marking Veterans Day This year’s holiday is century milestone for end of World War I

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A ceremony at the Littleton World War II memorial at Ketring Park, 6000 S. Gallup St., and a ceremony at Fort Logan National Cemetery, 3698 S. Sheridan Blvd., mark Nov. 11 as Veterans Day, a day set aside to honor those who have served and are serving in the military Both ceremonies will be held at the traditional time, the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month — the time of the armistice that ended World War I in 1918, exactly one century ago.

The Littleton ceremony is sponsored

by Pat Hannon Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4666 and George C. Evans American Legion Post 103.

The ceremony includes comments by guest speakers, and the 21-gun salute will be fired by the All Veterans Honor Guard.

The ceremony at Fort Logan National Cemetery is sponsored annually by District 10, Veterans of Foreign Wars and the VFW Ladies Auxiliary and is held in the open area adjacent to the lake and at the base of the main flagpole.

A VFW honor guard will represent many of the metro-area posts to present the colors as well as the flags from their posts.

Veterans Day speakers at Fort Logan include Lt. Gen. Christopher Coats, deputy commander of the Aerospace Command, and Canadian Consul Stephene Lessard.

In case of bad weather the ceremonies will be at Verle Huffman VFW Post 9644 at 2680 W. Hampden Ave. The VFW post also will serve lunch after the Fort Logan ceremonies.

When Littleton Adventist Hospital was in its own infancy, I was actually one of the first babies born here. The experience had such an impact on my family, and I heard such amazing stories of the care we received, I knew I would one day return and be a part of the hospital’s labor and delivery unit.

The events including laying of a ceremonial wreath and flowers at a symbolic headstone, followed by the traditional 21-gun salute. An array of horn players will be stationed around the lake and play the echo version of “Taps.”

When the Fort Logan ceremony ends, lunch will be served at Verle Huffman VFW Post 9644, 2680 W. Hampden Ave. The nation began honoring veterans in 1926 when Armistice Day was held for the first time to remember the event that ended the World War I and honor those who served.

That is when the tradition began to hold the ceremony on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, eight years after that was the time the the World War I Armistice took effect.

In 1938, it was declared a national holiday. In its early history, Armistice Day was focused on honoring World War I veterans. In the early 1950s, Congressman Edwin Rees of Kansas proposed changing the name of the holiday to Veterans Day and making it a time to honor all those who served in the armed forces, and in 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the bill, making Nov. 11 Veterans Day.

The team at Littleton Adventist Hospital is filled with genuinely remarkable caregivers – each with their own personal mission – inspired to provide dedicated, whole person health care.

I have been so lucky in my own friendships.

In my last few years of college at MSU Denver I met my boyfriend, Will, and eventually several of his friends. In 2013, Will and I joined in on our friends’ family dinner tradition.

One of us would host and everyone would bring a dish. On Sunday nights we’d catch up on life over plates of homemade noodles, tikka masala, guacamole, whatever the theme was for that day.

Food tastes better when it’s shared with friends. To me, cheesy as it sounds, cooking is the currency of love.

Over the years, friends have moved away, new friends have joined and, although we don’t get together to cook every week any more, we still make sure to meet up every once in a while over a homemade meal.

My love of cooking for people goes back to childhood family holidays.

We’d pack up the car and head to my grandparents’ house in Westminster. Food would sit on the kitchen counters, buffet style, as my pile of cousins, siblings, aunts and uncles filed through with plates of turkey and mashed potatoes.

The holidays were when my family would get together and laugh over our meal, enjoy each other’s company and, depending on the day, cheer on the Broncos or the Avalanche.

As an adult, I now bring my own dish to the table at family meals. I love planning for my family’s various events — a raspberry pie for the whole family because it’s my grand-

“Never Known” is on a back wall at the center, with a first-prize ribbon beneath it the size of an apron.

The center’s events director, Allissa Dailey, arranged a wonderful reception for the exhibit.

Jennifer and I arrived before Matt did, and we kept the news of the prize to ourselves until he had a chance to see the ribbon for himself.

Matt’s not crazy about crowds, and there was a possibility he wouldn’t attend, but the front doors opened, and I watched a friend of his push his wheelchair inside.

I introduced him to Jennifer, and then we led him back to our painting, which I had completed in my studio — and he had not seen.

I watched his face.

He looked happy and pleased and proud.

pa’s favorite, potatoes at my dad’s because he doesn’t like vegetables, adventurous international foods with my mom, and so on.

But like Julia, my favorite person to cook for is my partner in crime.

For the past seven years, Will and I have spent time huddled in kitchens across the state, sampling soups and sauces. Will’s specialty is guacamole or hot wings, mine is Alfredo or carbonara with homemade noodles.

We are our own worst critics, and Will nearly always finds something wrong with the dishes he makes.

But despite Will’s pickiness about his cooking, there are few people with whom I would rather share a kitchen.

Sharing a meal brings warmth to friendships. For me, it starts with a good cookbook: What should I make?

What will people like best?

Over the years I have collected cookbooks with cuisine from around the world, including “Mastering the Art of French Cooking” by Julia, with her co-authors and friends, Louisette Bertholle and Simone Beck. My favorite pages are usually earmarked or stained with flour and oil.

The recipes don’t have to be complicated. The presentation doesn’t need to be on par with the finest restaurants in the world.

Julia spent the later years of her life making cooking accessible to everyone, assuring viewers of “The French Chef ” that it was OK to break a few eggs in the kitchen.

It will all turn out fine in the end.

Bon appetit.

where he was pursuing photography, Matt was airlifted by helicopter from the crashed car his mother had been driving.

He returned to Colorado (he graduated from Rangeview High School in 1989), paralyzed from the neck down.

He spent six months at Swedish Medical Center and Craig Hospital.

At first he tried to reconnect with photography, but maybe that was too easy. You can click a camera with almost anything.

Why not try to mix oil paint with a palette stick in your mouth?

Why not try to create distinctive portraits with a paintbrush in your mouth?

And that’s what he has been doing.

Perhaps the most well-known artist with limited mobility, Chuck Close, also paints portraits.

Close had a “catastrophic spinal artery collapse” that left him partially paralyzed, but he is able to work with his hands, and continues to paint large-scale portraits that are placed in museums and private collections worldwide.

This ride Matt and I are on is one more immeasurable gift that art has given to me.

They would rather continue to tweet and post messages or videos from the past and from someone who happen to be championing a different point of view at the time. It has become a feeding frenzy.

Trust will never be found again or earned again by anyone if our extremism and fanaticism remain where it is today. The point-of-no-return politics has already ruined and corrupted our country, are we really going to let it drive a wedge so far between us as a people that we will continue to erode our trust in one another to the point of no return?

And if so, who can we ever stand up as a leader and who can withstand the scrutiny of opinion and judgment driven by bias without knowledge, by opinion without fact?

If we can’t trust our politicians at the very highest levels, and we can’t trust the systems that drive our

politics, who can we trust? At a minimum, we have to be able to trust one another. We have to be able to come to the center, or at least close enough to it where we can talk rationally about how to fix the brokenness. Trust lost is not easily found, as we read in the parable above. But it’s not impossible to be found and earned again.

There is a Proverb that reads, “A gentle response turns away wrath.”

Perhaps as we consider building trust with one another again, we begin with listening first, seeking first to understand, and responding with gentleness instead of wrath.

So how about you? How is your trust level these days? Can we get back to trusting one another? I really would love to hear your story of trust at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we can learn to come back to center and restore trust, it really will be a better than good world.

Options for dining out — or in — during the holidays

ason Miller grew up in a small mountain town on the Western Slope of Colorado and in an agricultural community in Montana. He often hunted with his father, a taxidermist. They ate venison nearly every day.

When he was 19, Miller started to question his lifestyle.

“Most of that meat I saw killed and even participated in the hunt,” Miller, now a Littleton resident, said.

“At a certain point, it started to add up on me.”

That year, Miller, now 47, became a vegetarian. A year later, for the welfare of all animals, he switched to a vegan diet. The diet is referred to by many health organizations as the strictest form of vegetarianism.

Vegans abstain from all animal-based products — meat, eggs and dairy.

Some reject wool and leather products.

Around the corner is the holiday season. The time of year typically involves celebrating with friends and family, indulging in rich roasts and decadent, dairy-filled deserts — items that are not on a vegan’s list of things to eat.

or the entire second half of the 20th century and beyond, most Americans were presented with one perspective on the island nation of Cuba.

Thanks to governmental changes in both nations, many are gaining a better understanding of the nation than ever before.

That all important cultural and environmental exploration can begin at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science’s, 2001 Colorado Blvd., new exhibition, “¡CUBA!” This family-friendly exhibition — presented in English and Spanish — is free with general admission entry.

“The exhibits covers many aspects of Cuba, both as a natural ecosystem and as a culture,” said Hugo Valdez, muCOMING seum programs ATTRACTIONS specialist at the museum. “It is important we provided new perspectives on the island. We want people to know how vibrant the culture is there.”

The island nation is actually Clarke Reader an archipelago of more than 4,000 islands and keys, and home to 11 million people. Cuba is also one of the region’s most ecologically diverse countries, with the Caribbean’s healthiest coral reefs, most significant wetlands and largest rainforest.

The main feature of the exhibition is a replica plaza, which gives attendees the chance to learn more about day-to-day life in a Cuban town. By wandering through the plaza, visitors can learn about everything from dominoes, foods and coffee and music that can be heard on a local radio station. There’s also information on the nation’s 16 baseball teams and the vintage cars that make Cuban streets such a colorful and nostalgic means of travel.

On the more natural side, visitors can explore re-creations of the island’s habitats, with lifelike models representing its distinctive wildlife, both modern and extinct, and live lizards. About 50 percent of Cuba’s plants and 32 percent of its vertebrate animals are endemic, found only on the island.

But with the right amount of planning and communication, vegans like Miller make it work.

Plan ahead For people on a vegan diet, planning ahead is key, said Cynthia Dormer, a registered dietitian and assistant professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver.

“Plan ahead what your meal is going to be,” Dormer said. “Find things that you really enjoy and that are special to you so that you can enjoy the holiday.”

That’s easy for Miller, who buys meat and dairy substitutes at the local grocery store. His favorite during the holiday season is a tofu “tofurkey” breast with stuffing inside. For dessert, his freezer is stocked with vegan ice cream, which is typically made with a coconut or almond milk substitute.

“There are so many options now,” Miller said. “There’s always some central dish that you can have.”

Vegans looking to dine out have options.

On Thanksgiving Day from noon to 7 p.m., Native Foods Café, 680 S. Colorado Blvd., Denver, will offer a buffet special with all-vegan options.

Menu items are a plant-based roast, shepherd’s pie, apple-cider braised Brussels sprouts, mashed potatoes and gravy, among other holiday favorites.

Adults pay $29.99, kids 12 and under cost $14.99 and children under 2 are

Tofurkey.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE? Vegan: a plant-based diet that excludes all animal-derived ingredients, such as meat, eggs and dairy products.

Native Foods Cafe in Glendale has a plant-based buffet special for Thanksgiving. To view the menu, visit nativefoods.com/thanksgiving.

ALEX DEWIND free.

Whole Foods offers a catering menu with vegan-only items and recipes.

The main dish is a Thanksgiving Risotto with cranberries, pumpkin, greens and fresh seasonal herbs. Sides include coconut-roasted sweet potatoes and creamy broccoli-cauliflower soap, among others. Whole Foods has locations across the Denver metro area.

Don’t let food get in the way While delicious meals add to the magic of the holiday season, the real joy is in the time spent with family and friends. Dormer encourages people to communicate early and not let diets or restrictions ruin a celebration.

That’s the plan at The BiTSY Stage, 1137 S. Huron St. in Denver, with their new production of “Aloha: Postcards from Polynesia.” This family-friendly show runs through Nov. 18.

“Vegan people can sometimes have a self-righteous attitude, and certainly they are right in the sense that their approach is more environment- and animal-friendly,” Dormer said. “But if the people around them feel judged for eating their favorite food, that can cause some conflict.”

In Miller’s experience, many people view eating vegan as too challenging and expensive.

“It’s a matter of finding the right replacements and I can guarantee all of those things are out there,” Miller said. “It’s so doable.”

Scott Spears hopes to make it easier for meat eaters and vegans to dine together in the future.

He is behind Arvada’s first vegan,

From there, he’s let rap fans come to his music based on his skills.

“Daytona” is most his most concise and hard-hitting release yet, and is the rap album to beat in 2018. In support of this killer release, Pusha T will be swinging by the Summit Music Hall, 1902 Blake St. in Denver, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 13.

Timely tome tells travel tales Memoir takes readers on tour across decades, continents

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Patricia Ann Paul’s recently published memoir title: “Curse of Interesting Times: A Vietnam Era Memoir,” is based on a reputed Chinese curse, “May you live in interesting times,” which has no proven source.

But, it was certainly appropriate during what she calls “the Vietnam quagmire” — and unfortunately, strikes home today. The book opens March 31, 1968, as she and her fiance, John, watch President Lyndon Johnson’s announcement that he would not run for another term — due to the Vietnam War. Wedding plans were made for mid-June, soon after graduation from the University of Iowa for both — and John was enrolled in graduate school, while Patricia planned to start teaching nearby. His draft status was 1A and the hope of deferment for graduate school involved holding out through the summer without being drafted. Paul mentions Ken Burns’ statement, connected to his recent documentary about the Vietnam War, which had escalated since 1964, result-

ing in death for young Americans, that “it is central to understanding who we are now …” That is a thread that runs through the book, with its historic notes heading many chapters. (I found this really engaging.)

That year (1968) was the Age of Aquarius. “Hair” opened on Broadway; 16,889 American soldiers died in Vietnam; Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy were assassinated; anti-Vietnam War riots roiled the Democratic National Convention; Americans elected Richard Nixon, the only president to resign … Apartment rental was impossible due to John’s draft status — life focused on the mailbox. John managed to get one semester completed, but had to report Feb. 18 of the next year — after Richard Nixon had become president.

After basic training, with the threat of Vietnam assignment constantly hanging over his head, John was assigned to Mannheim, Germany — somewhat familiar territory to Patricia, who had traveled in Germany. At least for a time, the couple could be together, although the possibility of reassignment hung in the air.

They found a small apartment on the third floor of Frau Schaffer’s house. Despite peeling wallpaper and inadequate heating, they settled into a routine — John became an MP and Patricia found some teaching jobs — necessary because money was short.

When there was time off, they were

able to explore in Germany, including during a visit from her parents, which included some humorous incidents, lovingly recounted …

Bits of recent history are smoothly stitched in. With her parents, they set off on a trip “down the Romantic Road” to Rothenburg ob der Tauber — an outstanding historically rich spot with a medieval castle, begun in the 10th century. During World War II, six Americans were sent to offer the Germans a three-hour window to surrender — or the city would be heavily bombed. The German commander gave up the town, saving it for posterity, Paul writes. “Thank goodness!” Legends about the 17th century’s disastrous Thirty Years War were re-enacted around the marvelous mechanical clock in the square. More easy-to-absorb historic tidbits … Next came a visit to Mad King Ludwig’s Bavarian realm, including the white fairy-tale castle, made more famous by its Disneyland copy …

Later the couple visited Berlin, still “trapped behind the Iron Curtain” — an experience Patricia felt that John should have before they headed for home and law school … Heavy, heavy fog greeted them and stayed with them through a scary flight to still war-damaged Berlin, now a popular travel destination with shiny shops and hotels.

Arts center looks to the future Town Hall’s executive director planning to step down soon and return to East

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In summer 2017, Town Hall Arts Center’s board of directors consulted with Paul Bryant and Callan Meek of local architecture firm Bryant Flink and developed a design Charrette, Vision 2025, as a guideline for future planning decisions for the downtown Littleton venue.

Prior to that time, there was a search for additional space, which the City of Littleton would acquire, so education activities, offices and tech and storage could move and expand, an idea encouraged by former City Manager Michael Penny, who was fired by the City Council’s 4-2 vote in June 2016. Public Works Director Mark Relph was appointed acting city manager first, then hired for the top position in May 2017. He then needed time to get up to speed, of course.

The architects suggested a vision for the Town Hall lobby that would make it a more publicly used space — “Main Street’s Living Room,” it was called.

Here small meetings might occur, people could use it as a place to connect with others, to perhaps sit and

Town Hall’s busy Box Office is central to the local theater’s success. work on a personal or professional project … perhaps food service could be arranged. Perhaps some redesign of exterior lighting and interaction with Main Street is in order?

We had lunch with Town Hall Executive Director Cheryl McNab to catch up on planning as it looks now. She says she plans to retire soon — probably in December — and move back to “Maryland, family and beaches” with

her husband, so a successor will pick up on the future planning. The board of directors expects to find an interim manager while a search goes on for a permanent replacement. McNab thinks an interim manager could/ would assist with the search.

Town Hall is in really good shape financially, she said, with some shows selling out and others selling well.

Musicals and concerts are what the Town Hall audience says it wants, so the planning committee books accordingly and successfully. In addition, the education program, run by Seth Maisel, is bursting at the seams and could definitely expand if there were more space, she says. Rehearsals are often held elsewhere and storage for props and costumes is rented offsite — at a considerable cost. Ongoing art exhibits are held in the Stanton Gallery, which is also used for events.

In recent months, the city personnel and council have been focused on a ballot question over the fire district.

Perhaps after Election Day, Town Hall’s future can again grab attention, McNab hopes. A couple possible expansion locations are being explored, with some assistance from Catamount Construction on estimating costs and

design. Firm numbers are needed by the board in order to speak with city council members, McNab says.

Town Hall needs another 1,200 to 1,400 square feet (1,400 would allow for a small black box theater to accommodate children’s performances, so they don’t have to be crammed in between musicals—or at odd times on musical sets!).

A sure-to-be-popular musical version of “A Christmas Carol” will be onstage for families and an art show of miniatures will be held in Stanton Gallery, ensuring lots of happy traffic through the old building.

Built in 1920, the Town Hall building was originally designed by Jules Jacques Benoit Benedict, a well-recognized Denver area architect, who had also designed the Carnegie Library (now The Melting Pot), First Presbyterian Church and his own home, now the Carmelite Monastery in Littleton, as well as a number of stylish Denver homes and commercial and educational buildings.

It was used as Littleton’s increasingly crowded civic building until the Littleton Center on Berry Avenue opened in 1977. In 1980, a fundraising campaign raised enough to remodel the interior and change it into a theater for local stage events, opening in March 1983.

Cheryl McNab doesn’t think either she or her husband will truly retire — s “There are a number of colleges in the t t area and we both teach …”

Born in Denver, McNab lived in a number of locations with her famc ily, as her dad was a federal engineer. t When in the Washington, D.C./ R Fairfax, Virginia area, “We discovC ered Ocean City” in Maryland and m beaches generally. She had been a social worker/housing counselor and t teacher. She came to Littleton from 1 an arts center in Grand Junction and F before that, she had lived elsewhere in l the U.S. and taught in England and in o Africa (Zambia for eight years).

Although McNab’s upcoming resignation is a loss for Town Hall and Littleton’s Main Street, we will be interested to see where her enthusiastic approach to communities takes her next — and will hope to report to her many fans …

New esports arena set to open up in Lakewood The arena will be the largest of its kind in the state

WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT LOCALHOST

BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The esports, or competitive video gaming industry is starting to blow up all across the world. Celebrities like Drake and Michael Jordan have invested in the industry, and even owners of professional sport franchises like Robert Kraft and the Kroenkes have invested millions in esports. According to a Newzoo Global Esports Market Report, the esports industry has a value of more than $900 million, and Lakewood will soon be home to the largest esports arena in Colorado.

“It’s a huge, huge market, and it’s growing like crazy. Hearing these stars and big names invest in it is confirmation that it’s only going to be growing further,” said Nate Jones, vice president of technology for N3rd Street Gamers.

N3rd Street Gamers, a Philadelphia esports network, is set to open up the Localhost esports arena toward the end of the year. The arena, located at 1882 S. Wadsworth Blvd., is 18,000 square feet, and it will offer 120 custom-built gaming PCs, and video game consoles like Xbox Ones, PlayStation 4s and Nintendo Switches. Localhost

COURTESY OF N3RD STREET GAMERS will contain a 60-foot stage that will be used for events and tournaments, along with a full-service bar.

“Denver is close to my heart as a place I have traveled to annually for decades,” said John Fazio, founder and CEO of N3rd Street Gamers.

“More importantly, it is a strategic location that provides access to one

of the country’s strongest and oldest gaming communities.”

Jones described Colorado’s esports scene as passionate, large and active.

Some universities even have esports clubs like the University of Northern Colorado. The school competes in video games like League of Legends, Overwatch, Counter Strike and Rock-

et League with a focus on becoming the best WHERE: 1882 S. Wadsgamers in the worth Blvd. country.

Ryan Barr, the chief experience officer for N3rd Street Gamers, said Localhost Arena will attract events and tournaments from out of state organizers.

“This is something we’ve been working on for a while. Whether you’re a casual gamer, or hardcore, we’ll be able to serve all of those communities,” Jones said.

Volleyball tourney: Time to seize the day

while since the boys have been in the semifinals.”

Arapahoe’s leading scorer, Cameron Gail, scored in the 53rd minute against Fairview to give the Warriors the only goal of the game. Gail headed the ball into the goal off a corner kick

by Zander Hahn.

olorado Mesa University volleyball standout Kasie Gilfert has a message that sounds simple for players who will be participating in the CHSAA State Volleyball Championships on Nov. 8-10 at the Denver OVERTIME Coliseum.

Now, here comes that word “however,” which usually means the statement that follows contradicts the previous words.

So when Gilfert says to have fun, Jim Benton she knows that isn’t easy when putting in the hard work, trying to win and having to deal with adversity presented during matches and tournaments.

The message Gilfert was sending was that it going to get tougher at the next level so have fun in high school.

Gilfert played in the state tournament when she was a four-year volleyball starter and letter winner, plus a two-season captain at Legend.

She set school single-season records for hitting percentage (.428) and blocks (158) as a junior. She also lettered in track and field.

“The biggest advice I have for the girls playing in the tournament is to just have fun and enjoy those moments,” said Gilfert. “Enjoy who they are playing with and also enjoy volleyball because some of them are seniors and they might be going to the next level or they might not be.

So for some, it could be their last time playing and you want it to be a positive experience and you learn so much stuff from those experiences in volleyball.

“We have so much responsibility in college that fun is not an option.

You have weights in the morning, practice, traveling and there is so much more that comes with the higher level of volleyball.”

The 6-foot redshirt sophomore is a middle blocker/right-side hitter who is having a banner season at CMU this season..

Gilfert, a transfer from Northern Arizona, leads NCAA Division II in hitting percentage at .453 and has recorded five 20-plus kill efforts.

She is the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference leader in hitting percentage and also ranks high in kills, total points and blocking.

Gilfert, as of Nov, 1, led all three NCAA divisions in hitting percentage and she is on pace to break school records for hitting percentage.

Warriors reach soccer semifinals Arapahoe takes down tournament’s top seed, Fairview

Senior midfielder Jacob Vogel looks for an outlet as he approaches the ball during action in the Oct. 31 secondround game against Arvada West at Littleton Public Schools Stadium.

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA

Arapahoe gained a berth in the Class 5A state playoff semifinals for the first time since 2010 following a pair of 1-0 victories in the second round and quarterfinals.

The Warriors, seeded No. 8, put their 15-1-2 record on the line in a semifinal match against No. 13 Broomfield that was scheduled for Nov. 7 at Echo Park Stadium in Parker.

Arapahoe earned the semifinal berth with a 1-0 upset over top-seeded Fairview on Nov. 3. It was the first loss of the season for the Knights, who couldn’t manage to score against the Warriors’ stingy defense.

“We played well enough against Fairview,” said coach Mark Hampshire. “Our guys did what they needed to do. In a tight game, there

are not a lot of opportunities so we had to capitalize on one of the few that we had.

“Fairview had the best offense we’ve seen all year. Our defense, and in particular our goalkeeper (Spencer Cobb), really had to play well. Spencer didn’t have to make a lot of big saves but he had to step up to make the ones needed. It’s been a

This season she became CMU’s first ever American Volleyball Coaches Association Division II Player of the Week. She has been selected as the RMAC Player of the Week three times so far this season She said playing in the CHSAA state tournament helped her and can help others.

“It helps you just because when you play there, there is so much happening around you, like there are other courts around you and there are a lot of fans,” she explained. “When you reach that higher level there are all those other distractions and you have to learn to tune them out. Playing in a tournament like the state tournament prepares you for that.”

Bye week to get better Eight football teams enjoyed a bye in the Class 5A playoffs and got a week off before second-round games scheduled to be played on Nov. 10.

ThunderRidge was awarded the No. 8 seed and earned a first-round bye, along with Valor Christian, Columbine, Cherry Creek, Eaglecrest, Grandview, Ralston Valley and Pomona.

“It is definitely unchartered waters for Colorado high school playoffs to have a bye week,” said ThunderRidge coach Doug Nisenson. “The grind of the season, we played 10 straight games and we had our camp right at the end of July and then had a week off before the official start date. So it’s good to have a chance to rest a little

Gail picked up an assist in the 1-0 second round win over Arvada West on Oct. 31 at Littleton Public Schools Stadium.

Arapahoe scored in the 15th minute of the first half on a textbook play when Gail beat a defender on the outside after a quick throw in.

He centered a pass and sophomore Jay Wolf converted the pass into the winning goal.

“I think the defense was kind of asleep,” said Wolf. “I saw the ball coming in, I had a wide open net. I hit it and it went in.”

Wolf gave the Warriors the advantage but couldn’t help protect the lead as he was stranded on the sidelines waiting to sub into the game during the final two minutes when the Wildcats controlled the ball and put heavy pressure on the Arapahoe goal.

“I was supposed to sub back in but the ball didn’t go out,” said Wolf. “I trusted everybody on the team that we could put through.

We had to drop everybody back, but it worked out. We can hang with anybody.”

Arapahoe dominated play early in the match against Arvada West and then hung on for the victory.

“It’s been something these guys have been very good at,” Hampshire said. “Attack early, try to get the pace up, finish some goals early and make sure that we hold the lead. It becomes more and more

and refocus on some littler things that can’t always be addressed the week of games.

He said teams on a hot streak may not like the bye, but it can help those teams that are dealing with injuries.

“If you are banged up, there is no doubt the bye is helpful,” he said.

Rest is good but teams have to maintain their routines. With the extra time and not having to install a game plan during the first week of the bye, teams can go over some basics that can sometimes be pushed aside during the regular season.

“Instead of installing a game plan the first week we worked on what we feel we need to be better at,” said Nisenson. “We got back to the basics of how we want our kids to run certain routes and little things that at the beginning of the year you get to spend time on but during the season you are coaching on the fly because the goal is to get the game plan installed and teaching the kids what they are going to go against.

“We’ll see how those top eight teams fare in the second round but it’s a real cool thing for our program to be put in that category with the other teams in the top eight. We’ve told the team that you’ve earned yourself the right to rest a little bit but the teams that are really going to capitalize on this opportunity are the ones that recognize that the off week is a week to get better like any other week.”

November 8, 2018N Englewood senior Dylan Carpenter crosses the finish line at the Oct. 27 Class 3A state cross country meet. Carpenter finished in 157th place with a time of 20:24.

His effort helped the Pirates finish 19th in the team standings in the field of 20 teams. TOM MUNDS

Pirates runners reach state for first time in 19 years Cross country team sends seven to Colorado Springs

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The seven members of the Englewood High School cross country team were among the 160 runners who competed in the Class 3A state cross country meet held on Oct. 27 at Penrose Arena in Colorado Springs.

“This is a milestone for Englewood cross country because this is the first time in 19 years a Pirate team has made it to the state meet,” Pirates coach Ryan Wess said. “This is a great experience for our young team and we want to use this as a springboard for next season.”

In cross country, runners earn points for how they place in the field.

The first runner across the finish line earns one team point and the 10th runner 10 points. The points earned by the team’s first five runners across the finish line are added together to determine the team score. The team

with the lowest score wins the meet.

Englewood scored 483 team points.

Junior John Altenhofer was the first Pirate across the finish line. He finished 83rd with a time of 18:38.

Junior Dustin Trevino was the second Pirate across the finish line as he was 86th in the field with a time of 18:42.

“This was a challenging race,” he said. “Everyone in the race was really, really fast and it was a course with a lot of hills to climb. The start was hard because you were battling with so many runners all looking to get into a good position in the pack.”

He said he got off the starting line well and then focused on moving up in the pack. He said he felt he ran a good race as he pushed himself so he could pick off and pass a lot of guys, passing them to move up in the field.

“I think this is a good experience because this is a young team and being at state is a building block for our guys who will be back next season,” he said. “I think today’s experience will help our team next year to contend throughout the season and then qualify to come back to state.”

November 5, 2018

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Your usually carefully made holiday plans could be subject to change later this month. Use this week to prepare for that possibility by starting a Plan B just in case you need it.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Be careful about joining a colleague’s plan to solve a workplace problem. Investigate it thoroughly.

Otherwise, you could find yourself in a predicament with other associates.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Slow down that highpaced whirl you’ve been on. Spending quiet time alone or with people you care for can be both physically and spiritually restorative.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Make suggestions, not demands. You’ll be more successful in getting people to follow your lead if you exercise quiet patience instead of strong persuasion to get your ideas across.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) You still need more facts before you can make an informed career choice. One note of caution: Be careful about whom you ask for that information; otherwise, you could be misled.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Changing situations through the end of the week could lead to some challenging opportunities for those perspicacious Pisceans who know how to make them work to their advantage.

BORN THIS WEEK: You have a way of being both daring and cautious, traits that could make you a research scientist or maybe even a rocket-ship designer.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Although your energy level is high, be careful not to commit to too many projects at this time. You’ll do better focusing on just a few tasks rather than spreading yourself too thin.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your heart might be leading you in one direction, but pay attention to your keen Bovine intellect. I’m cautioning you to think things through before making any commitments.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Your “serious” Twin has been dominant in your life for quite a while. It’s time now to let that “wilder” half take you out for some good times — perhaps with someone very special.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Career aspects are high for Moon Children who make a good impression. Show people not only what you can already do, but also how you can be more valuable to them in the future.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Things start to brighten for the Lion’s immediate financial future. But be careful to resist the urge to splurge. You need to tuck something away to help you through another tight period.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Having to do too many tasks in too short a time could lower your mood to just above the grumbling level. But if you handle things one at a time, you’ll get through it all soon enough.
