Forget balancing a checkbook. Today’s teens need to know how to avoid identity theft, decode a credit score and gure out if that “buy now, pay later” plan is actually worth it. With a new state law requiring all Colorado high school students to complete a course in nancial literacy beginning with students in the 9th grade on or after Sept. 1, 2026, educators now face a practical challenge: how do you design a course that prepares 21st-century teens to make smart nancial choices in a world of skyrocketing rents, digital wallets, student loans and TikTok stock tips?
e law, House Bill 25-1192, mandates a semester-long course in personal nancial literacy for every public school student, beginning with the class of 2028.
But it leaves the details up to local school districts, many of which are still guring out what today’s students need most: the basics of budgeting and saving, yes, but also how to navigate the gig economy, manage online spending and protect themselves from increasingly sophisticated nancial scams.
What the law requires, and what it doesn’t
While the law sets a content requirement, it allows schools to integrate the nancial literacy standards into an existing course rather than create a new standalone class. But, students must understand and practice lling out the federal or state nancial aid form (FAFSA or CAFSA), unless they and their parents opt out.
Colorado has one of the lowest FAFSA completion rates in the country, according to the Colorado Department of Higher Education. is means Colorado students are missing out on signi cant amounts of federally available grant money.

Golden Mill hosts Johnny Cash-themed fundraiser P10
Je co schools consider deep cuts in 2025-26 budget
District may turn to voters for help but $39 million in cuts could be inevitable
BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SUZIE@COTLN.ORG
Faced with a looming $60 million structural de cit, the Je erson County school board reviewed the district’s proposed 2025-26 budget on June 4 and began a sobering discussion about what comes next.
In the upcoming school year, Je co is projected to spend more money than it brings in, relying on savings to bridge the gap.

At the same time, it projects rising costs for salaries, bene ts, utilities and mandated services, such as special education.
Copeland said the forecasts already include sta reductions aligned to enrollment loss.

Golden closes in on municipal center’s price tag
New geothermal wells will help heat, cool the building
BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CORINNE@COTLN.ORG
e City of Golden is scheduled tonalize its budget and receive the guaranteed maximum price for its new municipal center and police headquarters next month and City sta members said they hope the new facility’s budget will remain in the $47 million range as planned.
On July 22, the City Council will vote on whether to start construction by approving a contract amendment with its general contractor.
Separately, the project’s groundbreaking ceremony and open house are tentatively scheduled for the following day. Overall, the municipal center at 311 10th St. will cost an estimated $60 million and should be ready for move-in by mid-2027.

Looking east from Archer Street, concept art from May 20 shows the exterior of the City of Golden’s new municipal center and police headquarters at 311 10th St. Construction is expected to take at least 18 months, with sta set to move into the building in 2027.
lion just for construction, not including furniture, moving costs or other pre- or post-construction items.
However, the general contractor is scheduled to present the guaranteed maximum price in July. With prices for construction materials uctuating, consultant Tom Wuertz of Handprint Architecture said there have been “some wins” and “some hits.”
He told the City Councilors at a May 27 work session: “We are still targeting $47 million for our budget, (but) we’re not sure exactly where it’s at.”
One of the wins is that the city has received a $800,000 state grant “to help fund sustainability elements, to be paid out throughout the construction,” Assistant to the City Manager Steve Glueck con rmed in a sta memo.
Mayor Laura Weinberg said she was excited about the geothermal wells that will help heat and cool the building. While others around Golden have used geothermal wells to help heat and cool their properties, Weinberg said this will be a rst for the City of Golden.
Nonprofits get boost from Golden Civic Foundation
is summer, local families in need will buy fresh food at the Golden Farmers Market, Foothills Fire & Rescue will carry injured hikers on their new stretcher, and the Colorado Railroad Museum will install an ADA ramp for a new exhibit. And it will all be thanks to people buying beer at last year’s Summer Jam, bidding in the auction at the fall gala, and generally supporting the Golden Civic Foundation.
GCF recently awarded almost $125,000 in grants to 47 local nonpro ts and causes, including $21,000 dedicated to Golden-area schools.
e foundation con rmed it has now raised and invested more than $19 million in the Golden community since its inception in 1970.
GCF, its partners and the grant recipients celebrated at the annual awards breakfast on May 14 at e Bu alo Rose, where GCF also introduced Catherine Withers as its new executive director.
“Together, with the organizations and individuals in this room, we will continue to create positive, lasting change for our community,” Withers said.
e recipients thanked GCF, saying the grants will support everything from teen internship programs and repairing cars for single mothers to the upcoming 4th of July and Bu alo Bill Days festivals. Overall, these funds will help keep locals healthy, safe and active this summer and beyond, they said.
BGOLDN’s Kevin Andrezejewski described how grant sources like GCF are being “bombarded with applications” because of the immense need across the country. As such, he was grateful for GCF’s continued support, saying, “ rough this grant, we’re able to get closer to our partners … and work on things like this together.”
Fresh food for local families
Andrezejewski, BGOLDN’s executive director, said his organization received a $3,000 grant to support part of its Local Food Access Program. is supplies lo-
cal families with prepaid debit cards to buy fresh foods at this summer’s Golden Farmers Market.
Andrezejewski said this program has been funded by two grants, including the GCF one. In the past, he said, the program has received as much as $22,000. However, because the other grant wasn’t available this year, he said BGOLDN will only have the $3,000 GCF grant to support this year’s program. at will be enough to help six families.
Andrezejewski explained how GCF is also supporting BGOLDN with a low-interest loan so BGOLDN can pay for a new, permanent location once it nds one. He said his organization has been looking for several months, and that he and his colleagues are hoping they’ll nd something by the fall.
In the interim, BGOLDN will continue operating out of the Golden Church of Nazarene campus, he said. ere, it serves hundreds of Goldenites through its fresh food pantry, home deliveries, food rescue and school snack programs, among others.
Andrezejewski said BGOLDN appreciates all the support it receives from GCF, its other community partners, donors and volunteers. He said Goldenites can continue supporting BGOLDN through food or monetary donations or by volunteering.
New stretcher to rescue trail users
For its rst GCF grant application, Foothills Fire & Rescue has received $2,300 to buy a new stretcher this summer. Chief Rod Cameron said it will help
carry people who get injured and/or exhausted on local trails.
Cameron said the new stretcher should be here by mid-June, just in time for the summertime in ux of hikers and bikers.
e department currently has three stretchers, but Cameron said they weigh about 30 pounds each, and are made of hard plastic with heavy steel frames. ey also don’t have handles, requiring four to six people to maneuver one, which he said is di cult on narrow trails.
In total, he said Foothills needs to use these stretchers about twice a month, with the Beaver Brook Trail and Matthews/Winters and Lair o’ the Bear parks seeing the most calls.
Foothills’ new stretcher, though, will be several pounds lighter and easier to maneuver around tight spots, thanks to its handles and the fewer people needed to carry it, he explained.
e department was hoping to purchase two stretchers, but Cameron said the GCF grant will only cover one. However, he’s trying to nd other funding sources to purchase a second one later this year. He thanked GCF for all its support, saying the application process was easy and the GCF sta were “nice people to work with.” He said he’d be willing to apply again next year.
“We’re a fairly small re department; we don’t have a big budget,” he said. “( is grant) may not be a lot of money, but even a little money helps support some of these needs that are tough to budget for.”
ADA ramp to help people access history
Over the past six years, GCF has been helping the Colorado Railroad Museum improve accessibility across its campus, whether that was paving sidewalks or adding ADA-compliant bathrooms. It might not be the most exciting or glamorous work, but museum personnel said it’s vital to ensure visitors with strollers, wheelchairs and other mobility challenges are able to access everything on the campus.

What I’ve Learned About Why Condominiums Are Getting Harder to Finance
Four years ago on June 24, 2021, part of a 12-story condominium building in Surfside, Florida, collapsed at 1:14 a.m. killing 98 residents and injuring 11 others.
But that’s only one event that has contributed to the increasing difficulty of selling and financing the purchase of condos across America.
Primarily because of severe weather, especially hail storms in Colorado, master insurance policies have gotten more expensive and their deductibles increased dramatically. When the deductible in a master insurance policy exceeds 5% of the insured value, units within a condo association become “non-warrantable” according to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines — and over 90% of all loans are sold to those federal agencies after closing and must therefore meet those guidelines.
home for first-time homebuyers who are less likely to have that much cash. They could also go to a “portfolio” or “non-QM” lender, but those lenders don’t typically offer the low down payments of conventional or FHA lenders.
by a single entity
Fewer than 35% of the units are the primary or second home of the unit owner (FHA only)
The HOA has inadequate reserves
Every lender has its own condo questionnaire that must be completed by the association property manager. The questionnaire addresses the numerous concern areas of the lender. The loan could be rejected if:
Master insurance deductible is over 5%
Commercial space exceeds 35%
More than 15% the unit owners are 60 or more days delinquent on HOA dues
A construction defect lawsuit is pending Less than 10% of the HOA budget is allocated to reserves
There’s a lot of deferred maintenance
FHA does a lot of this analysis for lenders and will provide a 3-year certification which lenders can rely on, but the application process is tedious and many condo associations fail to apply for or renew their certification.
That FHA lookup website is https:// entp.hud.gov/idapp/html/condlook.cfm
Here’s what the screen looked like when I searched for the Centennial condo featured with a price reduction in last week’s ad:
Sometimes it’s hard to know whether a unit is a condo or a townhome. The simple distinction is that a townhome owns the land under it, but even a standalone home could legally be a condo.
Buyers can pay cash, of course, but condos have long been considered the entry-level
More than 20-25% of the units are owned
NAR Dilutes Its Rule Against Hate Speech by Realtors
In the aftermath of George Floyd’s murder by a Minneapolis cop in May 2020, and the heated rhetoric, much of it racist, which followed, the National Association of Realtors enacted a “standard of practice” to go along with Article 10 of the NAR Code of Ethics, which bars Realtors from denying professional services based on “race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity.”
Inspired by demand for social change and an unprecedented number of complaints received by NAR relating to discriminatory conduct and language by Realtors, the Board approved Standard of Practice 10-5 with language that expanded Article 10 to include the prohibition against harassment and hate language generally and not just limited to a Realtor’s professional life.
SOP 10-5 was implemented by the NAR Board of Directors on Nov. 13, 2020, and read as follows: “Realtors must not use harassing speech, hate speech, epithets, or slurs
based on race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity.”
Here’s the new language, which no longer enforces that rule on Realtors’ communications or actions outside their business life:
“Realtors, in their capacity as real estate professionals, in association with their real estate businesses, or in their real estaterelated activities, shall not harass any person or persons based on race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity.” (Emphasis added.)
SOP 10-4 continues as follows:
“As used in this Code of Ethics, harassment is unwelcome behavior directed at an individual or group based on one or more of the above protected characteristics where the purpose or effect of the behavior is to create a hostile, abusive, or intimidating environment which adversely affects their ability to access equal professional services or employment opportunity.”
The search showed that this condo is approved by FHA for the 3-year period beginning July 24, 2023.
Although regulators have determined that the buyer’s agent, not the listing agent, is obligated to check whether a condo is FHAapproved, a responsible listing agent should, in my opinion, do the simple search described above and not list “FHA” as acceptable financing if the community is described as “rejected” or “expired” on that website.
Even if the website shows the association as approved, the lender will still require the long-form questionnaire from the association and study the budget, declarations, bylaws and more before approving a loan, so the lender should request those documents as soon as possible after the buyer goes under contract — certainly within a week.
The legal description can sometimes mislead a lender, broker or buyer as to whether they’re dealing with a condo or a townhome. Typically, the legal description should refer to a “condo declaration” and not have a “block and lot” description that is more appropriate to a parcel that includes land. Some legal descriptions which include the word “condo” are in fact townhomes, and vice versa. The title company can quickly research the full legal description and answer that question, which becomes critical to obtaining loan approval. Another clue would be if the association is on the FHA condo lookup database.
Back to the subject of insurance coverage and deductibles, a buyer who purchases a condo as a primary resident or second home should get an HO-6 “walls-in” condo insurance policy which includes a “loss assessment” endorsement, which would pay for the deductible which is assessed to each unit owner as the result of a hail or other claim. The annual cost of such a policy is far less than the insurance policy for a single-family home and can save you up to a 5-figure special assessment from the condo association.
If the master policy does not include roof, exterior, etc., the unit owner should purchase a more expensive HO-3 policy instead of the HO-6 policy.
FHA is favored because of its low downpayment requirement — as little as 3.5% — but with a higher down payment it’s possible the lender will only require a “streamline” review, which is quicker and less expensive. That requires a minimum 10% down payment for a primary residence and 25% for a second home.
It’s important for a buyer to hire an agent experienced in condo purchases and who can refer you to the best lender.

BUDGET CUTS
at, Copeland said, poses operational risks.
“I don’t know how schools would navigate a negative October adjustment without carryforward,” she said, referring to the reserve balances schools typically rely on when enrollment numbers change.
Board confronts painful choices: job cuts likely
At the board’s request, Copeland presented three models showing how the district could close a $60 million shortfall.
Each hypothetical model involved signi cant cuts to sta ng, showing that even steep cuts to software, supplies and other discretionary spending don’t go far enough.
One proposed a at 6% cut across all spending categories, totaling about $60 million. Another suggested a 6% cut to full-time sta , resulting in the elimination of approximately 564 positions. A third option varied the approach, cutting 5% to 10% in targeted areas while attempting to shield general instruction and school-based sta ng.
Board Member Danielle Varda asked why sta appeared to be the main target of cuts when some families might assume administrative or central expenses could be trimmed instead.
Varda said that if cuts to school-based sta are on the table, the district has a responsibility to explain why central services aren’t absorbing more of the burden.
Copeland explained that 84% of the general fund budget is tied to salaries
and bene ts. at includes not only teachers, but paraprofessionals, counselors, custodians, transportation sta and others.
“Of the $60 million target, $49 million would come from reductions to salary and bene t accounts,” Copeland said.
“ at’s where the money is.”
Board responds with urgency
“We’ve got to prepare our community for the fact that there are going to be sig-
limits, caps on consultant contracts and leaving vacancies un lled.
Deputy Superintendent Kym LeBlancEsparza said stakeholder input will be critical to shaping district priorities and understanding what families value most.
“In three decades of education, I’ve been through downturns before,” she said. “We have to establish criteria, involve stakeholders, educate people on what’s in each category and identify what’s undesirable versus what’s impossible.”
e board agreed to form a working group, likely comprising at least two board members and district leaders, to develop that framework this summer.
Applegate and others said the district should begin community conversations about asking voters to approve a mill levy override. Without one, they said, the kinds of cuts needed in 2026 and beyond could reshape Je co schools.
“If we are going to ask the community to support a mill, we need to be speci c,” Varda said. “We need to be clear about what we’re protecting, what we’re cutting and what we’re asking the money to do.”
is year’s resolution will include that required plan, she said, and will outline broader strategies for reducing expenditures and possibly going to voters with a tax request.

“Even small gestures to demonstrate we are tightening our own belts are important. We need to show our community we are taking this seriously.”
Applegate suggested implementing cost-saving policies now, such as travel

She believed the groundbreaking ceremony would be an opportunity to educate the public about the well-drilling process and how these geothermal wells will work long-term.

Councilor Don Cameron asked sta

Sta members said they’ve selected a tentative spot for the time capsules and the Liberty Bell in the municipal center’s east plaza.
Aside from the Liberty Bell and a few other items, Vargo said the city won’t be bringing most of its art to the new building. So, sta members are trying to decide whether and how to decommission the current pieces, saying Golden might host a public sale or auction for them. However, details are still being nalized.

CURRICULUM
e law doesn’t include a standardized curriculum or end-of-course exam. Instead, it points to existing high school standards, last updated in 2020, as the foundation. ose standards cover budgeting and saving, credit and debt management and understanding taxes. But they also include topics like risk management and insurance, fraud prevention and identity protection and nancial decision-making and planning for college. Each district will determine how to implement the course, whether as a graduation requirement embedded in current o erings or as a standalone class
What’s useful for teens in 2025

“Budgeting by available balance is one of the most common mistakes we see young people make,” Elrod said. “ ey don’t understand the di erence between their current balance and what’s pending. It can lead to overdrafts or worse.”
She said teens should learn how to read a pay stub, build a credit score and avoid scams on payment apps like Venmo and CashApp. Lessons should also guide them through how to evaluate nancial decisions, such as whether to rent an expensive apartment or sign up for a “buy now, pay later” plan.
“Even understanding basic investing, like what a Roth IRA is or how to open an interest-generating savings account can give them a huge head start,” Elrod said.
Elrod said she was especially glad to see FAFSA covered in the new requirement.
“ at knowledge is something you just don’t intuitively understand, and it’s a very convoluted maze,” she said. “If we are doing it for that reason — bravo.”

When students walk through those decisions, Elrod said, the lessons tend to stick. “You can tell them they need to budget, but letting them feel what it’s like to make the wrong choice is much more e ective.”
What parents can do at home
Financial education doesn’t have to stop at school. Elrod encourages parents to involve teens in family budgeting, talk openly about money and consider opening joint accounts or debit cards when they’re ready.
“Every student is di erent. Some are ready at 10, others not until 16,” she said. “ e key is creating habits early and making the conversation feel relevant.”
Elrod recommends apps that help families gamify chores, savings and spending. Some allow parents to set savings rules, such as automatically diverting one-third of every allowance into savings and help kids track their spending in real-time.
“ e goal isn’t to lecture,” she said. “It’s to build con dence. When teens feel in control of their money, they make better choices.”

Moose takes a break in Golden park
On June 6, a moose took up temporary residence around Golden’s White Ash Mine Park.
e moose was spotted by residents throughout the morning and afternoon, with Goldenites warning each other via social media to avoid taking their dogs to the park and to be cautious when visiting the area.
Around 2 p.m., the moose was trotting down White Ash Drive as rain poured down. It then headed down toward the park and started eating plants along the western boundary, including leaves on a small tree. e moose brie y laid down in the tall grass for a nap, but it quickly resumed snacking, chowing down on a resident’s rose bush.
Moose have been spotted in Golden before, but not very often. Residents should not approach moose and should avoid taking their dogs near moose, as the large animals are known to charge them.

State Patrol warns motorists to watch for wildlife
CSP enforcement ramps up for
calving season
BY MONTE WHALEY MONTE@COTLN.ORG
e Colorado State Patrol is stepping up patrols on Colorado State Highway 74 in Evergreen to protect motorists and local wildlife. e e ort is especially important in June and July during peak calving season for elk in the state.
e CSP’s “Give Me a Brake” campaign is being unveiled to increase enforcement and education about wildlife crossings, especially in Evergreen in Jefferson County.
“Highway 74 in Evergreen, like so many picturesque areas of Colorado, is an example of a roadway that sees many wildlife crossings,” said Col. Matthew Packard, chief of the Colorado State Patrol in a news release. “We want to warn drivers to slow their speeds and stay alert during this high activity season for new animals traveling with their mothers.”
While dusk and dawn are the most common times for wildlife-vehicle collisions, they can happen at all hours of the day – and they do. Colorado State Troopers will also be conducting weekly enforcement on Highway 74 this June to keep speeds down and increase knowledge on how to spot wildlife and what to do, the news release states.
Last year, animal-involved crashes
were the third most common crash factor among all crash types (fatal, injury, and property damage), the news release states. Troopers investigated 3,573 of these crashes. Ninety-six percent of the crashes caused property damage only for the motorist, but the wildlife often did not survive, the CSP states. e State Patrol o ered practical tips from Wild Aware and their Wild Eyes Program can reduce the risk of motorist/wildlife collisions. ey urge drivers to scan roads or shoulders for movement and eye shine and ask drivers to use bright lights at night when safe and ash lights at oncoming cars to warn of wildlife on the road. Do not honk at wildlife in or near road if stopped and use hazard lights to warn other drivers. ey also urge drivers to slow down and not to exceed the speed limit. Wildlife-vehicle collisions can be very costly to drivers, the CSP states. According to the Rocky Mountain Insurance Information Association, the insurance industry pays out nearly $1.1 billion yearly in claims for all wildlife collisions nationwide. e average property damage cost of these crashes is estimated at over $3,000.
If you are involved in a crash with an animal, Colorado State Patrol wants you to call 9-1-1 just as you would in any other emergency. In addition, if you witness wildlife in distress from possibly being struck on or near the side of the road, call *CSP for the proper resource to be notied and sent to the scene.
Where to find free meals for kids this summer

One (Musical) Piece at a Time:
Golden Mill hosts Johnny Cash-themed fundraiser for MAPAC
BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CORINNE@COTLN.ORG
For the last month, the Miners Alley Performing Arts Center has been hosting a Johnny Cash-themed party.
On June 4, that party temporarily relocated to the Golden Mill, as the venue hosted “Ring of Fire” cast members for a special performance that doubled as a fundraiser for MAPAC.
e Johnny Cash-themed jukebox musical “Ring of Fire: e Music of Johnny Cash” is playing at MAPAC through June 29. It portrays Cash’s journey of “misadventure, success, faith, redemption and the love of a good woman” through his music, according to the MAPAC website. “Ring of Fire” cast member David Otto, left, and Michael Phillips clap and sing during the June 4 concert at the Golden
Mill. Otto, Phillips and their fellow cast members performed Johnny Cash songs from the show, which runs through June 29.
Six cast members, who double as the musical’s band, showcased their vocal and instrumental talents June 4 at the Golden Mill. About 80% of the songs they played were arrangements from the “Ring of Fire” show, but they mixed in a few other songs from Cash’s contemporaries as well as some originals.
Overall, organizers from both MAPAC and the Golden Mill said the event was a “win-win-win” as it generated interest in “Ring of Fire,” raised funds for MAPAC and brought more people to the Golden Mill on a rainy Wednesday evening.
Right show, right time
Susan Ganter, the Mill’s co-owner, said she’s been wanting to host a fundraiser for MAPAC for years — even before her team took over the Mill in spring 2021.
However, MAPAC never had a show that could easily translate to a fundraising concert. at is, until “Ring of Fire” came along, MAPAC’s Producing Artistic
Director Len Matheo said.
“Ring of Fire” cast member David Otto plays guitar during the June 4 concert at the Golden Mill. Otto and his fellow cast members performed Johnny Cash songs from the show, which runs through June 29.
Matheo and MAPAC Executive Director Lisa DeCaro told Ganter about “Ring of Fire” about in April, and they all worked to make the June 4 concert and fundraiser happen. Ganter said 10% of the evening’s proceeds would go toward MAPAC, and hoped to raise about $3,000.
Ganter said, if possible, she’d like to host MAPAC for another fundraiser soon and make June the Mill’s cultural arts month.
e venue is also hosting the Circus Foundry aerialists’ annual ARTSWEEK GOLDEN show June 18, which will also be a fundraiser for Foothills Art Center.
For Johnny Cash and theater fans, DeCaro said there were still “Ring of Fire” tickets available, but she recommended people get them sooner rather than later as performances are selling out quickly.
Quadruple threats
She hoped Goldenites would come to see the show, describing the entire cast as quadruple threats who can act, sing, dance and play. She said most of them play several instruments and that watching them perform is impressive.

Because of how “Ring of Fire” is structured, no one performer plays Johnny Cash. e cast members described how they take turns as Cash depending on what aspect of his life they’re portraying.
“It’s the most unique way you’ll hear Johnny Cash music,” cast member Michael Phillips said of the musical.
Cast member David Otto described it as “high energy” and “a party.”
Clark Destin Jones said he’s had a lot of fun with his fellow cast members over the past several weeks and hoped to continue that through closing night on June 29. “I just love playing with these guys,” he said.

Additionally, places like Bob’s Atomic Burgers and e Golden Mill will be donating a portion of their sales to Foothills Art Center. e capper is the ARTSWEEK GOLDEN Festival, held on Saturday, June 21 and Sunday, June 20 in Parfet Park, 719 10th St. It will feature more than 70 artist booths selling original work, live demos and a local beer garden.
“ is year feels especially exciting. We have moved the festival to Parfet Park, right in the heart of downtown Golden,” Adamson wrote. “ e park o ers grassy space, shade from trees, and a central location that encourages visitors to stay, explore downtown and support local businesses throughout the weekend.”
Supporting local businesses and artists is the driver of the whole event, because these are the things that make a community unique.
“Local artists and creative nonpro ts don’t just make beautiful things, they shape the culture and identity of Golden,” Adamson wrote. Supporting them through events like this ensures creativity stays visible, valued and sustainable. When you buy a piece of art or donate to the cause, you’re directly supporting someone’s craft, their small business and the cultural health of Golden.”
e aim is no matter what event a person attends, they come away invigorated
“We hope everyone leaves feeling inspired and ideally taking home something handmade,” Adamson wrote. “Whether it’s a painting, jewelry, a bowl, a story, or just a renewed connection to art, we want people to walk away feeling like they invested in something genuine. ARTSWEEK GOLDEN is our mission in action, ‘We create stronger community through art.’

As Xcel Energy retires the last of its coal-burning power plants across Colorado, it faces a de ning choice: will it replace coal with the cleaner, renewable energy sources our climate and communities urgently need or tie us to expensive, polluting, and risky alternatives?
Xcel is going through what they are calling a “Just Transition Solicitation” process to determine what new energy resources will replace retiring coal plants. With the state’s largest coal plant, Comanche 3, closing by 2031 and other coal units winding down or converting, Xcel faces a rapid and massive transformation.
But the utility isn’t just replacing old energy sources, it’s preparing for a surge

For 10 years as Assistant Principal at Eaglecrest High School, I had the privilege of overseeing the program for students with unique educational needs. at experience was transformational. One portion of my responsibility included a program known as the Integrated Learning Center, ILC. at primarily self-contained classroom included students with particularly unique learning needs. In the ILC, I observed new dimensions to the human spirit and courage to depths I did not know possible. I learned what fun a lack of inhibition can be for everyone around and about the joy of being recognized. I actually had to stand outside the ILC to listen to what the teacher was saying before I entered the room, so that the students’ learning was not disrupted by an inevitable chorus of voices saying “Hi, Mr. Roome!”

By 2030, Xcel expects to need an additional 10,000 to 14,000 megawatts – more than double its current generating capacity in Colorado. is moment presents a vitally important opportunity. Xcel should meet this challenge by maximizing investment in proven, zero-emission technologies like wind, solar, geothermal, and battery storage? Not only are these resources cleaner than coal or gas, they are cost e cient and also align with Golden’s climate goals and those of many cities and coun-
ties across Colorado. Clean energy can reliably power our homes and economy while cutting greenhouse gas emissions, protecting public health, and creating local jobs, especially in communities hardest hit by the coal transition.
Xcel’s current proposal includes new gas plants. We don’t know exactly where or how many just yet, but the current proposal is for 1,600 to 2,500 megawatts of new gas. Based on the sizes of gas plants approved in Xcel’s last plan, that could be anywhere from 4 to 10 new gas plants in Colorado. Gas plants emit carbon and other localized pollution and are expensive.
It’s important to emphasize that any transition must be equitable. at means

We cannot achieve these goals without partnership with our utility company. at’s why, as a Council member, I’d like to see Xcel’s plan maximize clean energy and emissions reductions to meet Colorado’s climate goals.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Jim Roome GUEST COLUMN
During that decade, the two most profound lessons I learned from students were about having an unwavering love of life and determination without bounds.
I watched students bounce with joy because they glimpsed a friend or grasped a favorite toy. I observed full-on belly laughs because of a word or a wink. In fact, I cannot think of a time when the room was void of smiles. It is not that life is easy or the road is clear for students in ILC. In fact, just the opposite. Students’ lives can be lled with unimaginable hardship, and yet there is still time for drinking the joy of living. ere is a
great lesson in that room for all of us. Why would we have been put on this earth if it were not to bask in the joy of living? at bottomless well of joy sits next to determination, which outshines all other ideas in the ILC. Determination to live, to be, to thrive, determination to overcome. e goal might be to walk or to speak, or to share an idea. e size of the mountain does not matter, determination rules the space. We can learn from the students and ll our lives with the determination to overcome the mountains we encounter. Six years ago, I stopped overseeing the ILC program. To the end of my days, thoughts about those wonderful students will bring a smile to my face and a resolve to my heart because of the joy and determination I observed in that space.

In a softly lit room in Centennial, Lilly Cadillac Unger shu es her tarot cards with practiced hands. e space, lled with gentle natural light, is the heart of her business, Altered Arcana. On the table, a classic three-card spread — past, present and future — unfolds a story. Among the cards drawn: Death, the Six of Cups and the Nine of Wands.
“I see here that there was some kind of huge transition,” Unger said, pointing to the Death card.
e card’s reputation, she said, is the most feared and is more Hollywood than reality — its real message is transformation and rebirth.
Unger’s journey with tarot began at age 12, sparked by curiosity and the little guidebook included with her rst Rider–Waite deck — the most popular tarot deck, she notes, and one she’s mis-
placed more times than she can count.
For Unger, tarot isn’t about predicting the future.
“Tarot really should tell you about your present,” she said.
e Rider-Waite tarot card deck, rst published in 1909, was created by artist Pamela Colman Smith under the direction of occultist A.E. Waite. e deck consists of 78 cards — 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana — with each card featuring symbolic illustrations designed to evoke intuitive and emotional responses.
Distinctive for its fully illustrated Minor Arcana, the Rider-Waite deck’s imagery draws from esoteric traditions that embrace practices that involve secret or hidden knowledge, Christian mysticism and the teachings of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, a secret society that studied occultism and metaphysics, according to the University of St. omas.
Kate Kettelkamp, who reads tarot cards from her Denver o ce, also starts
with the three card spread that displays the past, present and future. After she shu es, she has the person receiving the reading pull three cards.
“I like people to choose their own cards,” Kettlekamp said. “Di erent tarot readers have di erent rules. I like people to select the cards because I feel like you bring your own energy to it.”
When the cards are pulled and laid out as reversals — meaning the card’s art is upside down — Kettlekamp said that can signify an energy blockage.
Looking towards the card that represents the past, Kettlekamp observed the Nine of Cups, reversed.
“Cups are water, so it has this emotional, imaginative quality to it,” she said. “With it reversed, it can (signify) wanting to move something forward but having some obstacle.”
When Kettlekamp moved from California to Denver almost 10 years ago, she said everyone she met in the new city knew their astrology signs and
owned a tarot deck, inspiring her to dive into the metaphysical world. She currently studies consciousness in a graduate program at the California Institute of Integral Studies.
In the program, Kettlekamp studies culture, the human journey, the soul and the environment, which she said sets her up for inquisitive knowledge for reading tarot.
“I like to approach (tarot) from a place of inquiry. Some people ask, ‘should I break up with my partner?’ But I nd that the tarot doesn’t answer deterministically,” she said. “ en they’ll pull the Death card and I’ll say, ‘well, possibly, what do you think? It’s up to you.’ at could just be their current energy that is creating a trajectory towards breaking up.”
Kate Kettelekamp reads tarot cards at Kronos Astrology in Denver. COURTESY
Florentino re ected on the readings she’s done that the cards portray a potentially negative message, and how she communicated it to her client.
Kettlekamp said the cards do not tell the future but can give insight into what struggles someone may be currently facing. She said it’s important for readers to uphold ethics when doing a reading.
“I’ve had people come into my o ce who have been disturbed from prior readings because they’ve been told things that make them anxious. So I do think that there’s some responsibility on the reader’s part to not induce anxiety by giving a deterministic prediction about someone’s life,” she said.
When the cards convey a negative message, Rachel Florentino from Bridge the Gap Tarot in Westminster said she views the cards as morphable.
“It’s not set in stone. ( e cards) are something we can bring to the present and change if we want to,” she said.
“ ere was a client that desperately wanted a baby … When I looked at her present, the problem was, she worked 80 hours a week and she wasn’t listening to her doctors telling her, ‘no, you cannot sustain that type of lifestyle while you’re pregnant,’” she said. “It hurt me because she wasn’t going to do that. I had to tell her she has to listen to people.”
Something Florentino did not always do at the beginning of her reading journey — even when she met the woman who wanted a baby — was shielding. In an e ort to protect herself from her clients’ energies, sometimes Florentino will imagine herself wearing a cloak that acts like a shield.
During another reading, Florentino pulled the Tower card in a past, present and future spread — with the Tower card in the future pile, she said it’s the harshest card of the deck.
“It’s because there’s things that you should be doing that you’re not doing and so the universe is going to make it happen. It can be harsh because it can no longer be in your control,” she said.
According to Florentino, the Tower card can show up when someone may be losing a job if they continue down their current trajectory.
“It’s de nitely a warning of: what do we know we need to be doing but we haven’t done yet?” she said.
Regarding the seemingly worrisome card — the Death card — Florentino said the image of the card, which typically displays a grim reaper-esque skeleton with a sword, scares people, largely due to Western society’s perspective of death.
“I think Hollywood has done a great job in scaring us with (death). In the United States, we’re not open about death and don’t view it as a rebirth but as the end of something. In a lot of other cultures, death is looked at as a deathrebirth process,” she said.
Regarding the online popularity of tarot card readings — from mass-collective tarot readings on YouTube to online psychic chats — Kettlekamp and Unger suggest looking at reviews to avoid being scammed.
“I would recommend for people to nd someone that has reviews because there are people who will take your money,” Kettlekamp said. “Anybody that has a physical location, not that that’s necessary, but it can indicate how much time they spend practicing.”
For Unger, reviews and having a connection with a reader are two ways to prevent scams.
“You just have to be honest with yourself about if it resonates, and I think you should be careful who you go to,” she said. “I think at the end of the day, getting reviews, and maybe just really asking yourself: ‘who am I being led to and why? Am I being led to this person because I saw something online that said: he’s thinking about you? And is that what I’m seeking?”’
