Little star in the big leagues

Even though he’s only 7 years old, Micah has already signed with a college baseball team. e young Denver-area resident has joined Colorado School of Mines from Team IMPACT. e organization matches children facing serious illnesses and disabilities with college sports teams, “creating a long-term, life-changing experience for everyone involved,” according to its website.

Several Mines teams have welcomed players from Team IMPACT before. Coach Robby Bales said the baseball team has had three during his 10 seasons coaching at Mines, but Micah is the rst in about ve years.

Micah, who was diagnosed with brain cancer and recently went through chemotherapy treatment, was matched with the Orediggers in December, both Mines and Team IMPACT con rmed.

Bales and his players said, so far, Micah has been a perfect match for the team. He loves baseball and has enjoyed visiting the Oredig-

gers since “signing” with them in December.

“He’s a fearless kid,” junior rst baseman Trent Nielsen said. “He comes in around 40 baseball guys … and he gets right in there. He’s a great sport. He loves being around us, and we love being around him.”

Joining the team

Although he can’t o cially play for Mines — yet — the Orediggers treat him like a member of the team.

Mines hosted a signing day ceremony in December for Micah and his family to sign ceremonial papers. It also gave him a custom jersey, hat and other swag. Since then, he and his family have been joining the Orediggers for practices whenever they can, and the players have been helping Micah work on his batting, catching and throwing.

On March 16, Micah showed o his pitching skills as he and his younger brother threw the ceremonial rst pitch at Mines’ doubleheader against New Mexico Highlands.

Geer is out of custody on a $250,000 cash/surety bond. He was still listed as a teaching assistant professor on the Mines website as of March 21.

The Nov. 6 incident

According to the arrest a davit led against Geer, at 4:38 p.m. Nov. 6, Golden police o cers responded to eastbound Highway 58 just east of Washington Avenue. ey were investigating a crash between a Toyota Tacoma and a Subaru Crosstrek. Amid slick and snowy conditions, the Toyota had reportedly lost control while the Subaru was trying to pass, hitting it, and both vehicles were now disabled near the median. All involved vehicles were on the far-left side of Highway 58, according to the a davit, with a Golden Police vehicle positioned behind the other two. All other tra c was moving to the right, away from the original crash scene.

Goldenite Corner: Dinosaur Ridge paleontologist works to foster ‘curiosity and wonder’ with new children’s book

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As local paleontologist Amy Atwater says: “Every fossil tells a story.”

And Atwater is excited to tell people all about them — whether that’s in-person at Dinosaur Ridge or in her new children’s book.

Atwater, a Conifer resident and director of paleontology at Dinosaur Ridge, said she loves telling people all about the unique treasure trove of fossils, footprints and other paleontological resources the Golden-Morrison area has.

She said many locals aren’t aware that some of the most iconic dinosaurs to ever walk the earth were fossilized and found in their own backyards.

To that end, she penned “ e Fossil Keeper’s Treasure,” a book that highlights 10 types of fossils that are embossed so readers can touch and interact with them.

e fossils depicted span prehistoric eras and parts of the world, including some of Colorado’s prehistoric fauna.

Atwater said the book’s target audience is children ages 5-10, but she believes people of all ages could enjoy the beautiful artwork by Uruguay-based artist Natalia Cardozo.

“ e Fossil Keeper’s Treasure” is available for purchase online, at the Dinosaur Ridge Visitor’s Center and at the Mines Museum of Earth Science.

Atwater has been speaking at Denverarea schools recently to promote both the book and Dinosaur Ridge, and said she hopes to visit more schools in the GoldenMorrison area too. She hopes to foster children’s “curiosity and wonder about the natural world,” and promote stewardship for all natural resources.

“Every scientist was once a curious kid,” Atwater said.

Fossils that inspire; people that preserve

As Atwater explained, Colorado — and the Golden-Morrison area speci cally — are the bene ciaries of the paleontological lottery.

Not only did dinosaurs roam Colorado but many of them were buried in muddy, sandy and silty ground that were “the perfect conditions” for long-term preservation, Atwater said. en, the Rocky Mountains created an

uplift that — millions of years later — exposed the layers containing those fossils.

So, the reason people can visit Dinosaur Ridge, Golden’s Triceratops Trail and other spots around Colorado is because we’re here at “the perfect sweet spot” geologically, Atwater said. Too soon and the fossils, footprints, etc. wouldn’t be visible; too late and they probably would’ve eroded away, she explained.

Even though this is in the context of thousands if not millions of years, Atwater and coworker Kristen Kidd emphasized how important Dinosaur Ridge’s preservation e orts are.

e ridge is “jam-packed” with tactile learning opportunities, they said, describing how it is essentially an outdoor laboratory that people of all backgrounds and ages — from small children to doctoral stu-

dents — can learn from.

Plus, Atwater described how she’s met several scientists who don’t study paleontology but who rst discovered their love of science through dinosaurs, fossils and the like.

Kidd, director of marketing and development, said that idea can also be seen in events like Dinosaur Ridge’s science quiz bowl for high school students, where questions range from anatomy to geology.

us, the Friends of Dinosaur Ridge want to preserve the fossils, footprints and more to educate and inspire future generations.

Atwater and Kidd summarized the idea as: “ e dinosaurs might be extinct, but the science is not.”

Families may finally see statewide dyslexia screening

Years of advocacy and desperate pleas culminate in bipartisan bill

Driven by years of pressure from parents and advocates, Colorado lawmakers are considering a bill that would require all schools to screen early elementary students for signs of dyslexia, an e ort supporters say is critical to catching reading struggles before they deepen.

Last fall, desperate parents pleaded with the state’s Board of Education to implement screening without delay, sharing stories of children who slipped through the cracks

because no one recognized the signs.

Senate Bill 25-200, sponsored by Sen. Chris Kolker, D-Littleton, and co-sponsored by Sen. Kyle Mullica, D- ornton, Rep. Eliza Hamrick, D-Centennial, and Rep. Matt Soper, R-Delta, would require school districts to implement a universal dyslexia screener or create their own process for identifying students with signs of dyslexia by the 2026-27 school year.

Kolker, who chairs the Senate Education Committee, described the bill as a foundational shift in how Colorado addresses reading struggles.

“If we have the ability to identify dyslexia in every child, then we have a responsibility to do it,” he said in an interview.

Under the bill, dyslexia screening would begin in kindergarten and continue through third grade.

e bill outlines speci c skills that any

dyslexia screener must assess, including phonological awareness, rapid automatized naming, word decoding and oral reading uency, which are skills that are commonly associated with early signs of dyslexia.

By adding these criteria to state law, the bill requires the Colorado Department of Education to ensure that any interim literacy assessments it approves for use under the READ Act include tools or subtests that can reliably identify students at risk for dyslexia.

Interim assessments are periodic evaluations used by schools throughout the year to monitor students’ reading progress and identify those who may need additional support.

“ is gets those skills, like rapid naming and alphabetic knowledge, into statute, which means CDE has to include them in its

next assessment review,” said Lindsay Drakos, co-chair of COKID, a parent dyslexia advocacy organization. “So even if screening won’t be perfect at rst, districts will at least have to start, and they’ll be more prepared once the assessment list changes.” e next interim assessment review process will take place in 2026.

Cost concerns and mitigations

Kolker said some reading assessments that districts currently use to determine how well students are reading, such as Curriculum Associates’ i-Ready Diagnostic, don’t adequately screen for dyslexia — a common learning disability that a ects word recognition, spelling and decoding skills despite typical intelligence and classroom instruction.

NAHB’s International Builders’ Show 2025 in Las Vegas Provided a Glimpse of New & Inspiring Products

Regular readers of this column know that I’m a sucker for new and innovative products. Many of them are on display each year at the National Association of Home Builders’ annual International Builders’ Show (IBS), which was held in Las Vegas the last week of February.

For me, as a real estate professional, IBS is comparable in interest to what the Consumer Electronics Show (now CES) is to geeks. This is where we learn about new concepts in manufacturing, both of home building materials and of houses themselves.

There were many “smart home” products promoted at IBS, including an app called OliverIQ, which claims to tie together all of one’s smart home devices into “smart home as a service” (SHaaS). At right is a screenshot of this app shown on an iPhone.

Literally hundreds of companies purchased exhibit space at February’s IBS show in Las Vegas, and I wish I could have attended, but here are some of the new or improved products which I learned about from press reports.

Lighting is an important part of any home, and one of the innovations that caught my attention was Alloy LED’s SurfaFlex 1 Tape Light. It is demonstrated in the picture below, providing a nice alternative to indirect lighting, which was also on display in various forms by other vendors.

When I visited a Scottsdale hotel several years ago, I was captivated by the folding garage door on its restaurant. Well, that concept is now going mainstream, albeit at a cost many home builders or homeowners might not feel they could justify.

Instead of the garage door traveling overhead on rails, rendering that part of the ceiling inaccessible and unusable, this garage door folds itself at the top of the opening. Clopay’s VertiStack garage door, shown below, won “Best of Show” at this year’s IBS.

Another product concept that caught my attention was under-counter refrigerator and freezer drawers, great for a wet bar, shown here between a couple beverage coolers.

Attention Wood Workers & Hobbyists!

I’m listing a home next month (or sooner) that has a fully equipped woodworking shop in the basement with lots of expensive woodworking equipment, most of which are Delta branded — table saw, planer, drill press, band saw, miter saw, and sawdust vacuum, plus hand power tools.

I saw my first example of a wall of sliding glass panels that opened onto a patio (with outdoor kitchen, of course) in a house in Lakewood’s Solterra subdivision that I helped a client purchase several years ago. I haven’t seen others quite as large and dramatic since, but maybe they’ll catch on following the display of a “multi-slide door” at IBS. They are also sold as pocket doors, but more typically stack into the width of one panel.

In the posting of this article on our blog, http://RealEstateToday.substack.com, I’ll include links for each of these products

Over 90% of Listing Agents Insert Faulty Legal Descriptions in MLS

I’ve written about this before, but it bears repeating. As a finicky editor, it has always bothered me that my fellow agents don’t know what is and isn’t the proper legal description.

I analyzed 100 listing on REcolorado, our local MLS, and only 8 of them had a clean legal description. Let me explain.

Most non-rural listings are in a subdivision, and are legally described by the name of the subdivision plus the block and lot numbers. But almost every listing agent inserts the “legal description” provided by the Realist report obtained via the MLS. That description also contains a Section, Township, and Range as well as the size of the parcel in addition to the subdivision, block and lot, like this from a recent listing of mine:

SECTION 34 TOWNSHIP 02 RANGE 69 QTR NE SUBDIVISIONCD 138000 SUBDIVISIONNAME CLUB CREST FLG #2 BLOCK 003 LOT 0011 SIZE: 11001 TRACT VALUE: .253

Heading the list of truly weird products was a “smart toilet” from Kohler, the Numi 2.0, shown below. It “combines unmatched design and technology to bring you the finest in personal comfort and cleansing. Kohler's most advanced toilet now offers personalized settings that let you fine-tune every option to your exact preferences, from ambient colored lighting and built-in audio

Client Praises One of Our Agents

Hi, Jim. This is Rita Levine. I just wanted to give you feedback, and I'm sure you already know this, but I closed on a home recently, and my broker was Chuck Brown. I just wanted to let you know he was the best real estate agent I have ever had, and this is my ninth house in three states. So, he was just so accommodating, so helpful, and so patient because we've been looking for four and a half years trying to find somebody that would do a contingency and find something I could afford.

And so, I just wanted to let you know how much I greatly appreciate his assistance and what a wonderful person he is.

I'm just really happy I had the opportunity to get to know him, and I'm so happy when I met with you that you brought him along and recommended that he would be the best person for me to work with because he absolutely was the best person to work with.

So, just giving you feedback, and I'm sure that's much better than any complaint because many times people only call to complain about things, and I just like to always let people know when somebody went way beyond what was expected of them, and he certainly did that. So, thanks again, and let him know that I let you know. Okay, have a great day. Bye-bye.

Lastly for this article, have you heard of “green walls”? RIVA Moss, sustainably harvested from European forests, allows for the creation of captivating living walls, framed art, and other custom installations, offering a

Defying Critics, NAR Retains Its Policy Against ‘Pocket Listings’

Last week, I wrote about the National Association of Realtors’ (NAR’s) Clear Cooperation Policy (CCP), which some major brokerages would like to see abolished, claiming that it is anti-competitive.

However, NAR, bolstered by an unsolicited determination by the U.S. Department of Justice that the CCP by itself was not anti-competitive, announced last week that it was retaining the policy, while throwing some crumbs to objectors in the form of a new MLS policy called “Multiple Listing Options for Sellers.”

That new policy was effective immediately (March 25, 2025), but gave MLSs until September 30th to implement it. The irony is that our MLS and possibly many others already offer these “new listing options” specified in NAR’s new policy. Those options are spelled out as follows:

1) A consumer will have the option to market their home as a “delayed marketing exempt listing.” This means a seller can instruct their listing agent to delay the marketing of their listing by other agents outside the listing firm through IDX or syndication for a period of time. REcolorado already has this feature, a “Coming Soon” status that is limited to 7 days, during which no showings may occur, including by the listing agent.

2) During the delayed marketing period, the home seller and the listing agent can market the listing in a manner consistent with the seller’s needs and interests. At the same time, the delayed marketing exempt listing will still be available to other MLS Participants through the MLS platform so they can inform their consumers about the property. That’s how “Coming Soon” status works.

3) Each MLS will have discretion to determine a delayed marketing period that is most

suitable for their local marketplace. REcolorado set that period as 7 days.

4) Listing agents representing sellers who choose to delay the public marketing of their listing must secure from their seller a signed disclosure documenting the seller’s informed consent to waive the benefits of immediate public marketing through IDX and syndication. Seller disclosure is required for both delayed marketing exempt listings and office exclusive exempt listings. The Colorado Real Estate Commission dictates that sellers be advised that restricting the exposure of their listing may not be in the public interest, but I don’t believe that such disclosures are being made to sellers by agents who convince sellers to keep their listing visible only to fellow agents within the same brokerage.

As I noted in last week’s column, listing agents can simply check a box during data entry to keep a listing off other broker websites, including realtor.com, redfin.com, and Zillow.com.

In summary, REcolorado has nothing to do to comply with this new “rule.”

My only wish is that NAR would disallow the “office exclusive” policy, which is itself anticompetitive, in that it disadvantages independent brokers and small brokerages, which, like small businesses, are the real workhorses of the real estate industry.

Does State Law Trump NAR

Dictates?

Alabama has enacted a law that buyers do not need to sign an agreement with a broker in order to be shown a home for sale, directly overriding a key part of last year’s NAR settlement. The local Realtor Association lobbied for the bill, saying it put undue duress on buyers and was not in the best interest of consumers.

‘This is Native Art’: Golden museum’s newest exhibit challenges people’s expectations of Native American

art

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN

Like the hills and valleys that surround the city that have been home to people for thousands of years, Golden History Museum’s latest exhibit is a rich tapestry of beauty, history and perspectives that everyone can appreciate.

“ is is Native Art,” which was curated by Danielle SeeWalker, features art pieces of various media by 30 Native American artists from across the United States. e goal, as the educational material describes, is to “challenge the narrative of what Native art is and what people expect it to be.”

Golden History Museum hosted a grand opening for the new exhibit March 19, in conjunction with the March 19-20Indigenous Connections Sum-

mit, which it hosted between the Native American community, local museums and public art agencies.

e pieces in the “ is is Native Art” exhibit demonstrate a diversity among the artists and their tribal nations, “yet at the same time, support the shared Indigenous knowledge across them,” the museum stated.

“ is is Native Art” will be on display through the museum’s annualAutumn Fest on Oct. 5.

e pieces in the “ is is Native Art” exhibit are available for purchase once the exhibit is over. For more information, visitgoldenhistory.org or email ruth.wilson@state.co.us.

e Golden History Museum is open from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Admission is free to the public.

SCREENING

e bill doesn’t come with a scal note, meaning no money is available for districts to purchase screening materials, so districts will be allowed to use a separate dyslexia screener if their current interim assessment doesn’t meet the new standards.

Alternatives such as the Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills, referred to as DIBELS, or Acadience Reading, both of which are designed to detect early signs of dyslexia, are free to download and administer manually.

Schools seeking additional support, such as training, digital scoring and progress monitoring, can access these tools at no cost through the state’s Early Literacy Assessment Tool grant, which Kolker said could cover nearly every district in Colorado.

wait,” he said. “ is is not an unfunded mandate. is is building the foundation.” e bill also makes school readiness assessments for kindergartners optional. Kolker said the current kindergarten readiness assessments are poorly understood and inconsistently used.

“Districts say they don’t even know what happens to the data,” he said. “Let’s focus on where the de ciencies are with literacy, especially now that we have universal preschool and expect kids to be more ready.”

Some opposition to the bill may come from the Governor’s o ce, which has expressed concern over eliminating the readiness assessments, but Kolker said he’s still waiting for a clear explanation of how that data is used.

He emphasized that the dyslexia screening provision has bipartisan support and backing from education groups such as the Colorado Association of School Executives and the Colorado Association of School Boards.

e bill represents a hard-won milestone for Drakos, who has advocated on this issue since 2019.

“No one who has applied for ELAT has been turned away,” Drakos said. “It covers DIBELS, which already includes all the required subtests, and it comes with training and progress monitoring. Most of the state already uses it.”

While the ELAT grant helps bridge current gaps, Kolker noted that broader investments will likely have to wait.

“We’re forecasting budget de cits, so we’re trying to do what we can while we

Investigators detected alcohol on Geer’s breath, the a davit continues, and he initially agreed to voluntary roadside sobriety tests. However, after he was informed of his Miranda rights around 6:06 p.m., he refused to talk further or complete the sobriety tests.

Evergreen woman shares her story of hiking the Continental Divide Trail

Diane Gansauer will host a reading and signing of her book at Mountain Area Land Trust on April 9

BY JANE REUTER JREUTER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As Evergreen resident Diane Gansauer hiked the 3,100-mile Continental Divide trail, she thought about the lives of people who had passed — and the lessons she had taken from them.

e result of those thousands of miles and seven years of thought is her book, “ e Waypoints: From 400 Farewells and 3,000 Miles.” Gansauer — also a former Mountain Area Land Trust board member — will read, discuss and sign copies of her book from 4-5 p.m. April 9 at the Mountain Area Land Trust, 908 Nob Hill Road in Evergreen.

Mailing

Gansauer was 61 years old when she decided to hike the trail, which stretches from the Mexican to the Canadian border, following the spine of the Rocky Mountains through New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana. She nished it in 2023, at the age of 68.

In addition to being a long-distance hiker, Gansauer works as director of Celebrant Services Director for SCI/Dignity Memorial. A celebrant is someone who leads and personalizes memorial or funeral services to ensure they re ect the deceased’s life and the family’s wishes.

Between hiking portions of the trail, she worked with 400 families to honor their loved ones, and carried their stories with her on her backcountry journey.

“I realized the trail was helping me process the lives of these people I had never met, but whose stories I had thrown myself into intensely understanding,” she said. “ e trial helped me re ect on the lessons from those lives, aspects of these people I’d never known but I really admired and was inspired by.

“At the same time, if you go walk way into the backcountry and spend days in nature, you are also learning things. e trial is kind of whittling you away, forcing you to get rid of stu you shouldn’t be carrying. e lessons from the trail and the lessons from those lives were overlapping.”

Gansauer didn’t set out to be a celebrant, nor to hike the Continental Divide trail.

Former executive director of the Colorado Wildlife Federation, and deputy director of Great Outdoors Colorado, she was working for Colorado Parks and Wildlife when she took an abrupt career detour in 2012.

“In my 50s, I shifted careers completely to work in funeral homes as a celebrant — putting together ceremonies for people who needed and wanted a memorial gathering, but were not connected to a faith community where they could call on clergy,” she said. “I would interview the families for this person’s story and center the ceremony around that. You develop relationships with those people.” at career dovetailed with hiking about 10 years ago.

e Monterey, California native moved to Evergreen with her husband 30 years ago. Both worked and raised a child together, leaving little time for hiking.

“I was a hiker as a young child, and then not for decades of my life,” Gansauer said. “I picked up hiking again as an empty-nester. at just grew over time, from hiking relatively small distances to hiking the Colorado

Trail as a section hiker. Because that overlaps with the Continental Divide Trail, I said, ‘Why don’t I just keep going?’”

Gansauer set a goal to nish the CDT before she was 70 years old. She did so in 2023, at the age of 68, with help from her husband Bob and “an army of people” who supported her journey.

Along the way, she started writing down the insights she saw between the lives of those she’d helped celebrate and long-distance hiking.

“I did not set out to write a hiker’s journal or a hair-raising adventure story, but my stories of the trail and excerpts of stories from these peoples’ lives,” Gansauer said. “It’s more about life lessons than exclusively hiking lessons.

“An obvious example is: travel lightly,” she continued. “It’s not only what you need to do as a backpacker, it’s a lesson for life. You don’t want to carry emotional baggage through your life.”

Hiking through Wyoming’s Great Divide Basin desert — with temperatures in the mid90s — is the only part of her journey Gansauer described as brutal. It, too, had a lesson to impart tied to the deceased whose lives she’d helped commemorate.

“ e people who immigrated to this country were inspirational in having a vision that brought them out of di cult circumstances and carried them to this country,” she said. “So whatever I was going through in the desert paled in comparison to what some of these people did to get to, and then thrive, in this country.”

e trail also taught her patience and exibility.

“Plan as best you can to get where you want to go, but you’d better be exible,” Gansauer said. “I would plan all winter long and then I’d get on the trial and the trail was laughing at me. ere would be an unexpected something, and you had to change the plan around.”

She describes such moments as “transformative.”

“And that happens in life,” she said. “ ere are countless ways in which what you thought something was going to happen that doesn’t: a loss, a divorce, a death, natural disaster. We have to reshape the plan.”

“ e Waypoints: From 400 Farewells and 3,000 Miles” debuted on Amazon on March 25, and at other major book retailers. Ever-

green’s HearthFire bookstore also has copies available. Gansauer isn’t done hiking. Her next goal? e 211-mile John Muir Trail. After traveling thousands of miles, her love of moving through nature is now deeply rooted.

“John Muir advised going into the mountains now and then to scrub our soul clean,” she said. “ ere’s a purging aspect to hiking that I miss.”

When a recent public records request asked for text messages between the Jefferson County Schools superintendent, top cabinet o cials and the school board about the termination of district employee David Weiss last December, most replies came back the same: “I don’t have any text messages related to this request.”

Board member Mary Parker was the exception. She preserved and submitted a series of texts, ful lling the request in full. Others, including board members, Danielle Varda and Michelle Applegate, Chief Human Resources O cer Amanda Pierorazio and Chief Legal Counsel Julie Tolleson kept a portion of the text thread. Her messages included exchanges with Superintendent Tracy Dorland and other district leaders discussing internal investigations, communication strategy and how to respond to public and media inquiries following Weiss’ dismissal after the Je erson County Sheri ’s o ce notied Dorland that Weiss was under investigation for possessing child pornography.

According to records released by the district, Dorland and Chief of Schools Lisa Relou, responded that they had no text messages responsive to the request.  However, Parker’s texts show that both Dorland and Relou engaged in text conversations about the Weiss case with her and the rest of the board members, suggesting that those messages were deleted after the fact.

Parker’s preservation of these texts provides a rare look into how district leaders managed communications during a pe-

riod of high public interest.

While nothing in the text exchange suggests district leaders hid anything from the public, the messages show a coordinated conversation about how best to respond to media and community inquiries and manage messaging around Weiss’ termination.

Weiss was found dead in Maryland after traveling there shortly following his termination. e medical examiner ruled his death a suicide. e investigation into the possession of child pornography charges against him by the Je erson County Sheri ’s O ce remains ongoing.

While nothing in the text exchange suggests district leaders hid anything from the public, the messages show a coordinated conversation about how best to respond to media and community inquiries and manage messaging around Weiss’ termination.

While board member Danielle Varda retained only a few texts responsive to the request, she responded to the district’s request for text communications with concern, saying that while convenient, texting can blur the lines between informal conversation and o cial records.

“I think we are best served to be more public about how we are communicating,” she said.

Under Je co’s current records retention policy, deleting such communications is permitted. e policy states that electronic communications may be deleted on a routine basis unless district policy or state or federal law requires them to be retained.

Colorado’s Open Records Act requires agencies to disclose existing records but does not mandate their retention.

Records retention policies vary across districts and agencies in Colorado. In Jeffco, the district follows a records management manual developed in collaboration with the Colorado State Archives.  at manual encourages public entities to retain records that re ect o cial business decisions and notes that sound recordkeeping supports transparency and public trust.

How district leaders use texts

During a Feb. 28 board retreat, board members and senior sta discussed how and when text messaging is used.

Relou acknowledged that texts are often used to notify members of urgent events or to ag incoming emails but said the use had increased in recent weeks.

Dorland said texting is sometimes the fastest way to alert board members to issues already appearing on social media.

Still, Varda raised concerns about transparency, questioning whether some communications were being handled by text speci cally to avoid the public nature of email.

“I just want to make sure that there’s transparency,” she said. “Sometimes texts are being sent to avoid emails to be public and transparent.”  e discussion did not lead to a formal resolution or policy change during the retreat. Still, board members agreed to continue examining how the district uses text messaging and how those practices intersect with transparency expectations.

What the law says about record retention

Colorado’s Open Records Act, rst enacted in 1969, was designed to give the public access to the records of govern-

ment bodies at all levels. e law de nes public records broadly, including any writings made, maintained or kept by a public entity in connection with o cial functions.

at includes emails and text messages, but only if they still exist.

CORA doesn’t require government agencies to retain those records, only to produce what they have when a request is made. In practice, that means public ocials can legally delete texts unless another law or policy requires them to be kept.

e Colorado State Archives o ers model retention schedules for schools and other local agencies, and districts are encouraged, but not required, to adopt them.

In Je co’s case, the district’s policy explicitly allows electronic messages to be deleted routinely unless otherwise required by law. at puts the burden of transparency on the o cials themselves and their judgment about what to keep and what to erase.

e result is a patchwork of practices across the state. Some agencies retain texts for several years, while others allow for deletion after a few days or weeks unless agged as part of an o cial record.

e rise of encrypted, auto-deleting messaging apps like Signal has added a new layer of opacity. A recent investigation by Colorado Politics found that top aides to Denver’s mayor Signal to discuss sensitive topics like immigration enforcement with messages disappearing shortly after being read, leaving no trace for public scrutiny.

Visit the Dark Side of Oz at The Oriental

One of the most famous legends in rock and roll is that Pink Floyd’s album, “Dark Side of the Moon,” syncs up with the 1939 classic, “ e Wizard of Oz.” While the band has always denied any intentional connection, there are certain moments that lend credence to the notion.

“I was in high school when I rst heard the urban legend,” said Kent Adamson, lead vocalist for e Crazy Diamonds progressive rock group. “ ere are lots of coincidences when you try it, especially in the rst part of the album. It’s uncanny how it lines up sometimes.”

In honor of the pairing of music and lm in fun and experimental ways, e Oriental eater, 4335 W. 44th Ave. in Denver, is hosting the Dark Side of the Movie Experience at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 11.

e evening will begin with Royale w/ Cheese, who will be performing the soundtrack to Quentin Tarantino’s immortal “Pulp Fiction” while the lm plays on the big screen. Next will be Lt. Dan & e New Legs performing a selection of hits from the blockbuster, “Forest Gump.”

And nally, e Crazy Diamonds will take to the stage to perform “Dark Side of the Moon” in sync with a screening of “ e Wizard of Oz.”

COMING ATTRACTIONS

appealed to the 10-person band, which was formed out of members of the Colorado Art Rock Society, which is a group for fans of progressive rock (bands like ELP, Genesis and Porcupine Tree).

“We get together once a month and talk about the music we love and there’s also the once-ayear Prog Fest concert, where members do tributes to di erent prog rock bands,” Adamson explained. “ is year there was supposed to be a di erent headliner but when that fell through, we put on a show of ‘Dark Side’ because we thought it would pull people in.”

And it did.

It’s easy to understand why — “Dark Side of the Moon” is the fourth best-selling album of all time, an album music fans of all ages have been returning to for generations. Add in a renewed interest in all things Oz, thanks to “Wicked,” and you have a perfect pairing.

“It’s just one of those timeless pieces of music and anyone who appreciates music will enjoy seeing it played authentically live,” Adamson said. “When you have this cool tie to a famous urban legend about one of the greatest movies of all time, it just gets more interesting.”

Howd-E! It’s a helluva time at Mines’ E-Days

Igrew up here in Golden, as most of you probably know. My Dad went to the Colorado School of Mines, class of 1956, and half of the kids in my neighborhood had parents that were professors or were currently students there themselves. So, it should come as no surprise that one of the very rst songs I learned all the words to was this one:

THE MINING ENGINEER

I wish I had a barrel of rum and sugar three hundred pounds, the college bell to mix it in and a clapper to stir it ‘round. Like every honest fellow, I take my whiskey clear, I’m a ramblin’ wreck from Golden Tech, a helluva engineer. A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva engineer. A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva engineer. Like every honest fellow, I take my whiskey clear, I’m a ramblin’ wreck from Golden Tech, a helluva engineer. Hail, hail, the gang’s all here. What the hell do we care as long as we get our share. Hail, hail, the gang’s all here.

M-I-N-E-S What the hell do we care now?

I had to take a little liberty with the correct poetic form so it didn’t take up the entire page, but if you have no idea what that song is, you haven’t lived in Golden very long. Of course, that’s the CSM ght song. But even if you knew that, you probably also know that there are a few other colleges around the country that use a variation of it, name-

ly South Dakota Mines and the most famous, Georgia Tech.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Laura Jane Grace at Meow Wolf

Laura Jane Grace is one of the most important gures in the contemporary indie rock world. Not only is she the frontperson of Against Me!, one of the great early 2000s rock bands, but when she went public with her gender transition in 2012, she became an icon for trans people and showed the power of embracing your true self.

Plus, she continued to make top notch rock music under her own name.

Last year Grace released her newest album, “Hole in My Head,” and it proved she can still wield a sharp pen and write some killer ri s. In support of the release, she and e Mississippi Medicals will perform atMeow Wolf’s e Perplexiplex, 1338 1st St. in Denver, at 8 p.m. on Saturday, April 5. She’ll be joined by openers Alex Lahey and Rodeo Boys Information and tickets are available at https://tickets.meowwolf.com/events/ denver/laura-jane-grace/.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

But what you may not have known is that the song is based on is a melody called “Son of a Gambolier” from the 1800s and CSM started using it way back in 1879. at’s more than 30 years before Georgia Tech swiped it and started using it as their own. So, nah-nah-nah.

Telemedicine has made my life better and easier, which has left me wondering, why can I use telemedicine for myself and my family but not for my pets? Colorado Senate Bill 25-159, which was just rejected by the Senate Agriculture Committee last week, would have empowered Colorado-licensed veterinarians to treat new pet patients through telemedicine. is would not only improve the lives of Colorado pet owners, it would improve animal welfare and could even help veterinarians diagnose animals more e ectively.

While it’s sometimes necessary to bring animals to the veterinarian’s o ce for an on-site appointment, there are many circumstances in which it’s appropriate to treat patients through telemedicine. Mild cases involving vomiting, diarrhea, skin issues, eye infections and even some respiratory diseases can be treated via telehealth. And because animals tend to become stressed or excited when visiting the veterinarian’s o ce, it can be more e ective to diagnose behavioral issues through telehealth, which allows a vet to observe the animal’s natural behaviors in their home environment. For folks living in areas too far from a vet clinic or without viable transportation, making telemedicine accessible is tantamount to making vet care accessible. All our pets deserve excellent care, and telemedicine would be a great step toward improving the welfare of all of Colorado’s beloved pets. I am extremely grateful to Senator Jessie Danielson for voting “YES” on SB159 and very disappointed in the committee members who voted against this lifesaving bill. Christian Bueche,Golden

BIG LEAGUES

e Orediggers described Micah as “a battler” with “a heart of gold” who has a great support system of family, friends and youth league teammates. Now, the Orediggers said, they just want to be another branch of that support system.

“We treat him as we would any other teammate,” sophomore utility player Evan Bilter said. “ … We want him to have that feeling of being part of our brotherhood and our team … while he’s going through these di cult times.”

In February, the team hosted a “headshaving party” in solidarity with Micah, who had lost his hair while he was nishing up chemo treatments, according to a press release from Team IMPACT. Micah and his younger brother shaved the Orediggers’ heads, and the players later said how happy they were to do it.

Junior catcher Tyler Pina said all the Orediggers are immensely proud of Mi-

cah for his perseverance, saying “He’s been a huge inspiration for the whole team (with) the grit that he’s shown. … at smile really never leaves his face, and he’s always putting smiles on other people’s faces too.”

Going into the March 16 doubleheader, Bales said Micah and his family haven’t been able to attend many games yet this season, between Mines’ road schedule and the weather. But he hopes to see them more now that spring is o cially here and Mines has started its conference slate.

All the Orediggers said, if it works out, they’d love to have Micah and his family back next season. Even if he can’t be an o cial player from Team IMPACT, Pina said Micah and his family would always be welcome at Jim Darden Field.

“He’s a great kid to be around,” Pina continued. “ … I wouldn’t have it any other way. I have really enjoyed getting to know Micah and becoming his friend and teammate.”

‘Bigger than baseball’

Both Bales and Nielsen remarked how Micah and Team IMPACT help remind the Orediggers that there are things “bigger than baseball,” as Nielsen put it.

Mines does other types of community outreach and has worked with youth players before, but Micah’s presence has been “a breath of fresh air” for the team, Bales said.

“I explained to Micah and his family that we’re going to learn as much from this experience as he’ll learn from our guys,” Bales said. “We’re thrilled that he’s around (and) that he’s a baseball nut.”

Bales added how partnering with Team IMPACT and doing other types of community outreach helps him and his players put things in perspective. He described how the Orediggers can be so focused on baseball, they can lose sight of other things.

“What our guys do in life is priceless,” he said. “ … It’s good for us to be reminded of what is really important.”

in municipal court KIDS ON THEIR OWN

Children as young as 10 can face charges with no court-appointed representation

BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SGLASSMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

“Yes, your honor,” a teenager answers, her voice barely audible in the quiet courtroom in March. Lakewood Municipal Court Judge Corin Flannigan has just asked her if she understands the charge against her — ghting in public — and the possible penalties she faces.

“I know you’ve spoken to the city attorney about your options,” Flannigan continues. “ ey are recommending a term of diversion if you choose to plead guilty.”

e girl’s grandmother, standing beside her, hesitates before speaking.

“What happens if she pleads not guilty? She was protecting her property,” she says.

“If you wish to plead not guilty today, you absolutely can, and I will set your case for trial,” Flannigan replies. “Please know that, unlike state court, juvenile cases aren’t eligible for the public defender because no detention or out-ofhome placement is possible. So if you plead not guilty, you would either have to represent yourself or hire your own attorney.”

e girl glances at her grandmother. ey exchange a brief, uncertain look, and Flannigan asks if she wants to plead guilty after all.

e girl nods.

is scenario isn’t an anomaly. It’s routine in municipal courts across Colorado, where children can be prosecuted for minor o enses without court-appointed legal representation unless they face jail time.

Amanda Savage, a visiting assistant

professor at the University of Denver Sturm College of Law, said the disparity in these cases is profound.

“ ere is such a power imbalance any time an individual is in a courtroom, even if they are represented,” Savage said. “You have the power of the city or the state on one side against a single person, even if they have an attorney. And that’s so much more dramatic when it’s a child or a young person, especially when they are standing there by themselves.”

The harsh reality of youth in municipal court ousands of Colorado youth receive municipal citations every year, often for school-related incidents such as ghting, disorderly conduct or petty theft.

According to a 2025 National Center for Youth Law report, Lakewood Municipal Court alone handled over 8,000 youth cases between 2016 and 2022, many of which originated from school-based incidents. e report found that only 1.5% of these cases involved a defense attorney, meaning nearly all children were left to defend themselves.

Not only do the vast majority not have an attorney, but the report highlighted just how young many of the defendants are. In Lakewood, 36 cases involved 10 year olds, 98 involved 11 year olds and 278 involved 12 year olds, most of whom faced court involvement for minor, child-like misbehavior.

Hannah Seigel Pro , a defense attorney representing youth in municipal and state courts across Colorado, said that this pattern of prosecution unnecessar-

ily entangles young children in the legal system and imposes excessive supervision for behaviors that could be handled within families and schools.

Pro believes this over-supervision of youth who don’t have signi cant risks or needs is problematic.

Savage agreed, describing the lasting impact this can have on children’s futures.

“It can certainly set people on a path that involves increasing levels of involvement in the system,” she said. “If they don’t do well while they’re on that diversion or that probation, it can get longer, additional problems can crop up from it, and it can become a big part of that person’s life and future identity.”

A courtroom stacked against kids

Pro emphasized that the system places an undue burden on children and their families.

“You have a system that is designed for adults being applied to children with no modi cations,” she said. “You’re putting children in front of a judge and a prosecutor, without counsel, and expecting them to understand their rights, their legal options and the long-term impact of their decisions.”

Pro noted that many of these children have no way to obtain legal representation.

“In municipal court, they give you a piece of paper with a list of low-cost lawyers, but most of those lawyers don’t take these cases or won’t return calls. So in reality, these kids have no representation at all,” she said. “Without legal rep-

resentation, families do not understand their rights. Prosecutors downplay the severity of the municipal court system, but these cases are often the rst stop on the school-to-prison pipeline.”

e report also highlights another stark disparity — youth in municipal court must pay for discovery, which is the process of obtaining evidence against them. In contrast, evidence is freely available to juveniles in state court. is nancial barrier means many children never see the evidence being used against them before making critical legal decisions.

e report also argues that prosecutors often encourage youth to plead guilty and enter a diversion program, regardless of whether they fully comprehend the long-term consequences. In Colorado’s juvenile justice system, diversion is an alternative to formal prosecution. It aims to prevent further legal involvement by requiring youth to complete certain obligations, such as community service, restitution payments or educational classes, in exchange for dismissed charges.

While intended to keep youth out of the court system, diversion still carries signi cant nancial and time commitments that disproportionately burden low-income families.

Pro said she’d seen the push for families to accept diversion programs — without the families fully understanding the consequences — play out many times.

ON THEIR OWN

“What has become clear to me is that the majority of juvenile municipal dockets are kangaroo courts,” Pro said. “Most children are unrepresented, and prosecutors push them to accept diversion sentences before carefully reviewing the facts of the case.”

A guilty plea can also have negative consequences concerning immigration status.

A YouTube video advising Lakewood juveniles of their rights states: “a plea of guilty or nding of conviction or possibly just the charges themselves could a ect your immigration rights. You could be deported, you could lose your ability to become a naturalized citizen and it could a ect your ability to return to the United States if you were to leave the United States.”

Punishment beyond the courtroom e consequences of municipal court involvement extend far beyond a single court appearance. Youth can face nes and fees as high as $2,650, which the National Center for Youth Law report notes are amounts they often cannot pay.

Parents, too, are drawn into the process, sometimes held nancially responsible for their child’s penalties or are required to accompany them to community service, court dates or probation meetings, according to the report.

Savage also noted that the burden doesn’t just fall on the child.

“ ere’s such a huge impact on the whole family when the kid has a municipal court case,” she said. “Because not only does the young person have to be there, but the parent does, too. at means the parent is missing work. e fact is, the parents also have to disrupt their lives and spend time doing this, instead of spending time at work or with their other kids or doing productive things.”

Who benefits from this broken system?

e National Center for Youth Law argues that Colorado’s municipal court system disproportionately impacts lowincome families and youth of color, indicating that schools in lower-income neighborhoods are more likely to call law enforcement for behavior that could be addressed through school disciplinary measures.

e report found that at least 22% of youth cases in Lakewood stemmed from school-based o enses, highlighting a school-to-municipal court pipeline that disproportionately a ects students of color.

e data also showed that the three schools referring the most students to Lakewood’s municipal court have some of the highest percentages of Black and Latino students in the Je erson County school district, reinforcing concerns about racial disparities in school discipline.

Pro said this disproportionate referral pattern raises concerns about how disciplinary decisions are made and whether schools rely too heavily on law enforcement for matters that could be handled through alternative interventions.

She pointed to Littleton’s restorative justice program as an example of an approach that, when implemented thoughtfully, can provide a more meaningful alternative to punitive measures. Pro was particularly impressed by the program’s restorative justice circles, which o er youth the opportunity to engage in community-based resolution rather than facing legal consequences that may not t their situation.

However, she also noted that restorative justice should not be applied as a onesize- ts-all solution and that careful consideration is needed in determining which cases are appropriate for such programs.

The fight for reform

In December 2023, Denver City Council unanimously approved a bill to provide free legal representation to minors between the ages of 10 and 18 who are facing municipal violations. is initiative, which took e ect on July 1, 2024, ensures that youth accused of o enses such as alcohol possession, trespassing, theft and minor assault receive appropriate legal counsel.

However, Denver is currently the only county in Colorado o ering public defenders to minors in municipal court settings.

e National Center for Youth Law is now pushing for similar reforms statewide, calling for automatic legal representation for juveniles facing charges in municipal courts.

e center recommends that policymakers enact legislation to eliminate youth nes and fees, raise the minimum age for prosecution, mandate legal repre-

sentation for minors in municipal court and require comprehensive data collection on ticketing and court outcomes.  e center also urges police departments to limit or discontinue issuing tickets for school-related o enses and shift discipline away from the legal system. For school districts, it’s calling for revising disciplinary codes to reduce student ticketing for minor infractions and adopting restorative justice practices to address con icts that promote accountability and resolution without legal consequences. Pro believes that the question of whether children should be expected to navigate the complexities of the legal system without an attorney is one of fundamental fairness.

e presence of a lawyer can signicantly change how a young person experiences the legal process, Pro said, helping to demystify the system and ensure that youth feel heard and understand what’s happening.

“Even if the result is the same, even if a kid decides to still take a diversion at the end of things, just having a lawyer there and feeling like it was a fair process has value,” she said. “It makes it less scary. It helps people understand what’s going on.”

She added that many people are unaware that children can be prosecuted without legal counsel — a reality that often comes as a shock.

“ e fact that a child can face prosecution without legal counsel is something that shocks most people when they hear about it,” Pro continued. “It just feels really backwards.”

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

e 3-pointers were raining down at the Gold Crown Field House on Tuesday night.

Nobody was turning down open shots from long distance in the eighth annual boys Je co High School Senior Basketball Game. A combined 31 3-pointers were made in the senior all-star game put on by the Gold Crown Foundation.

“When the rst 3-pointer goes down, you have to lock in and keep them going,” said Evergreen senior Drew Yager, who led the way with eight 3-pointers on the night. “After the rst few go in, you know it’s going to be a good night.” Yager led the White squad to a 130-119 victory.

“It was pretty fun,” said Yager, who poured in a game-high 34 points. “Teaming up with some guys who I played club basketball back in the day was really fun.”

Dakota Ridge Coach Sean Kovar, who led the Eagles to a third straight Class 5A Je co League title this winter, had six players in double-digit points.

Dakota Ridge’s Ethan Berninger (20 points) and Nathan Esau (12 points), Arvada West’s Jordan Stremel (14 points) and Mason Lusche (10 points), along with Chat eld’s Indiana Hostetler (13 points), helped the White team overcome an early rst-quarter de cit.

Yager received the MVP/Hustle & Heart award for the White squad. e Blue squad also had six players in

double-digit points for Ralston Valley Coach Chris Braketa. Ralston Valley’s Tanner Braketa (24 points) and Hayes Gatlin (13 points) combined for seven 3-pointers.

Green Mountain senior Simon Lunsford, who helped the Rams to the 5A state championship game a little over a week ago, took a break from being one of the top baseball pitchers in the state to

pour in 19 points for the Blue squad.

Pomona’s Jaxon Perry (13 points), Littleton’s Sam Lasswell (11 points) and Standley Lake’s Derrek Sims (10 points) also lled up the scoresheet.

“It was a great way to end it. I know all of these guys,” said Tanner Braketa, who was named the Blue team MVP. “I all love each other. We all respect each other and are all friends.”

It was a tight senior group across Je co this season, with a lot of players playing together on the same club teams at some point in their careers. Ten of the seniors playing on Tuesday night are all alumni of B&B Academy.

Je co Senior High School Game wraps up girls hoops season

BY DENNIS PLEUSS

JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Arvada West senior Avery Harrison wasted no time shaking o the rust on the basketball court on Tuesday night.

Despite her high school season ending nearly three weeks ago in a Sweet 16 playo loss, Harrison poured in eight points in the rst quarter of the 2025 Jeffco High School Senior girls basketball game at the Gold Crown Field House.

“My teammates for nding me on the 3-point line and on the cuts,” Harrison said of jump-starting the White squad to an eventual 62-43 victory.

It was the eighth annual Je co High School Senior Basketball Games put on by the Gold Crown Foundation. Harrison was named the MVP/Hustle & Heart Award for the winning team that was coached by A-West girls coach Brady Meeks.

A-West nished with a 21-win season before being eliminated by Denver East in the Sweet 16 of the Class 6A state tournament on March 5.

“It was really fun,” Harrison said. “I used to play with a lot of these girls in club when I was younger. It was fun to play with them again.”

Chat eld’s Jordyn Reed and Je erson’s Te’Aira Nutter both joined Harrison with double-digit points in the victory.

Evergreen senior Addison McEvers took the MVP honor for the Blue squad. McEvers joined former Cougars Jameson Mott (2023) and Claudia Dillon (2019) as

MVPs at the annual senior all-star game.

“It was fun,” McEvers said. “I was glad to come back for another game. Last game of my career. It was fun to play with all the girls that I played against for four years. It was fun to connect with them.”

McEvers had just come from lacrosse

practice to play for Green Mountain Coach Matteo Busnardo, who coached the Blue team in the senior all-star game.

“I had to be here,” McEvers said. “I love to play. It was great to be here.” Green Mountain senior Julia
