Judge denies change to Geer’s bond
Geer set to enter plea June 23 in crash that killed Golden police o cer
BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CORINNE@COTLN.ORG
e Colorado School of Mines professor charged in the death of Golden Police O cer Evan Dunn will continue to wear an alcohol-monitoring device on his ankle, the District Attorney’s con rmed May 20. Stephen Geer, 43, has been charged with vehicular homicide and vehicular assault after he reportedly drove into the scene of a Nov. 6 tra c accident along Highway 58, striking four people.
Dunn, 33, died at the scene. Another GPD o cer and two civilians were also injured.
Geer, who was still listed as a teaching assistant professor on the Mines website as of May 20, was reportedly under the in uence of alcohol during the fatal Nov. 6 incident.
Geer is still scheduled to enter a plea in the case at 3 p.m. June 23 at the Je erson County Courthouse.
Geer had a bond-modi cation hearing May 14, where his defense attorney asked whether there was another alcohol-monitoring mechanism Geer could do instead, describing how the ankle monitor was breaking the skin around his ankle. He is out of custody on a $250,000 cash/ surety bond. One condition is that he’s prohibited from consuming alcohol and must wear an ankle monitor.
Defense attorney Megan Downing previously explained how Geer didn’t object to the prohibition against alcohol and expects that condition to remain in place, and has been compliant with the alcoholmonitoring requirement thus far. Downing said Geer was willing to comply with any other form of monitoring the court requires.
“We want to be thoughtful about this ask … (because) we don’t want it to be heard as diminishing the gravity of the case,” Downing said at an April 28 hearing. “ … We’ve delayed asking, because (Geer) takes the case and this condition very seriously.”
However, Judge Russell Klein ultimately denied the defense’s request, based on the prosecution’s arguments and the victims’ opposition.
Klein did instruct Geer and his attorneys to work with pretrial services about alternating ankles or rotating the device placement to minimize the impact on Geer.
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 then disabled near the median.
All involved vehicles were on the far-left side of Highway 58, according to the afdavit, 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.
e Subaru’s driver, the Toyota’s driver and her father were outside the vehicles getting photos and evaluating the scene with O cers Evan Dunn and Bethany Grusing at 4:53 p.m. when a black Mazda
traveling eastbound entered the area.
e Mazda reportedly hit the Toyota and then the Subaru, pinning Dunn under the latter. He died from his injuries at the scene.
According to the a davit, Grusing and the Toyota’s driver also sustained serious injuries, with the latter su ering a skull fracture and brain bleed. Her father, who was thrown over the jersey barrier, also sustained a large laceration to his head and elbow, the a davit describes.
e Subaru’s driver was uninjured. A third GPD o cer who was in the patrol vehicle behind the initial accident scene was also uninjured.
Shortly after the crash, authorities identi ed Geer as the Mazda’s driver. He reportedly told state troopers at the scene he’d been driving home after having a beer at a local bar with a coworker.
He told troopers he’d noticed “yellow ashing lights and attempted to stop” but wasn’t able to, the a davit describes.
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.
After receiving a search warrant, investigating troopers completed a blood draw at 8:46 p.m. at the Je co jail, the a davit continues.
It also states that Geer has no previous criminal history.
On Nov. 14, the District Attorney’s Ofce formally charged Geer with one count of vehicular homicide, a class 3 felony, for Dunn’s death; Two counts of vehicular assault, a class 4 felony, for injuring Grusing and the Toyota’s driver; One count of third-degree assault, a misdemeanor, for injuring the Toyota’s driver’s father; and one count of driving under the in uence, a misdemeanor.
City o cials have con rmed Dunn is the rst Golden police o cer to be killed in the line of duty.
Over the last six months, Goldenites and others across the country have honored Dunn’s memory by donating to his family and GPD, as well as by fundraising for Grusing’s recovery.
On May 2, Dunn’s name was added to the Colorado Law Enforcement Memorial at Camp George West, and GPD Chief Joe Harvey con rmed Highway 58 between U.S. Highway 6 and McIntyre Street would be renamed in Dunn’s memory.
Volunteers prepare Golden Cemetery for busy weekend
Buckley-based sailors answer the call for help
BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CORINNE@COTLN.ORG
Despite the name, the Golden Cemetery is full of life in mid- to late May. Robins and sparrows glide between the tops of the headstones. Magpies, hawks and other large birds soar in the blue sky overhead. Squirrels run up and down the grounds’ many trees. A fox runs among the lush green grass that covers the graves.
And on May 20, there were dozens of volunteers and visitors stopping by ahead of the Memorial Day weekend.
According to Troy Rodriquez, the cem-
etery’s assistant manager, Memorial Day is the busiest day of the year.
“It’s huge for us, especially for our veterans,” he said. “It’s our big day.”
Local veterans-focused groups host an annual ceremony at the cemetery, and separately, dozens if not hundreds of people stop by to visit their loved ones’ resting places during the holiday weekend.
Rodriquez said, typically, the cemetery works with local nonpro ts to schedule youth groups like Scouts and Young Marines to help get the cemetery ready. Volunteers place hundreds of small U.S. ags at all the veterans’ graves, as well as hundreds of larger ags around the cemetery grounds before the weekend.
Memorial Day was relatively early this year, so many of those groups couldn’t help since those students were still in
school. So, Rodriquez said, the cemetery put out the call for volunteers via the city’s social media and other channels.
And it got a surprising response.
Along with a few locals, a group of eight U.S. Navy sailors from Buckley Space Force Base volunteered to pick up trash and do a few touch-ups around the grounds on May 20. Rodriquez and the sailors con rmed they would be back later in the week to help place ags before Memorial Day.
Seaman omas Swift, who was leading the group from Buckley, explained how one of his colleagues heard that Golden Cemetery needed volunteers, and the sailors assembled a group to help.
“We’re here to honor the veterans (buried) at the cemetery,” Swift said. “We’re happy to help for the holiday.”
In addition to the volunteers, several
locals like Golden’s Stuart Little eld also stopped by the cemetery to clean their loved ones’ graves before Memorial Day.
Little eld said he and his wife, Kathy, visit Golden Cemetery almost every Memorial Day, and sometimes go to the annual ceremony.
He said he likes the cemetery, particularly the trees. e two already have their grave plots picked out, he said, pointing to an area near Kathy’s parent’s and other relatives.
On May 20, in addition to cleaning the Boyers’ family plot, Little eld explained how he was planting, replanting or trimming small rose bushes in between the headstones, which is something he does every year.
“We’re trying to remember those that have gone,” he said, “and one way to do that is to plant.”
On May 2, Golden Police Chief Joe Harvey places a wreath for O cer Evan Dunn, who was killed in the line of duty Nov. 6, at the Colorado Law Enforcement Memorial. Hundreds gathered at Camp George West during a May 2 ceremony where they honored Dunn and five other o cers whose names were added to the memorial.

e hotel’s name is a nod to Red Rocks Amphitheatre, according to Zeke Freeman, owner of Evergreen-based Root Architecture.
“We started two-and-a-half years ago when the property came on the market,”
Chad Wallace, Root Architecture’s COO, told about 50 contractors and sta during the ribbon-cutting ceremony. “As locals, we are excited to be part of something in Morrison.”
Wallace lauded Morrison Mayor Chris Wolfe for his support of the project.
Wolfe called it a wonderful time for Root
Architecture to bring the hotel to Morrison, adding, “We salute you.”
Freeman thanked the other businesses who worked with Root to bring the project to fruition, adding he expects the hotel to attract Red Rocks Amphitheatre patrons and people wanting to use the hotel as an anchor before going into the mountains.

In the end, developers gained approval on a scaled-back version of their original plan. e third oor of the redesigned Red Hotel plan is stepped back from Bear Creek Avenue behind the rst two stories. at change is intended to diminish the visual mass from the front to better blend the building with adjacent one-story structures.
Freeman called building the structure on the 50-foot by 120-foot lot similar to lling a spot where there’s a missing tooth.
“Hopefully, this will be really great space that will add to the Morrison community,” he said.
Divorcing Couples With a Home Need a Realtor With Specialized Training
I have completed a CE course on “Divorce Real Estate” and would like to share some of what I learned. As a happily married Baby Boomer, I was interested to learn that my generation is experiencing the highest rate of increase in divorce. While the divorce rate for couples 55 to 64 doubled between 1990 and 2012, it tripled for couples 65 and older.
The reason, as you might suspect, starts with the absence of minor children. In addition, retirement can bring out resentments or other negative feelings that may have been dormant when one or both partners were not home as much.
Opposing values or morals (politics?)
Addiction
Absence of love or intimacy
agent could be a prescription for not selling the house within a reasonable time period.
market factors which are embodied in a real estate “comparative market analysis,” which, by the way, is free, compared to the several hundred dollars you’d have to pay an appraiser.
One spouse not carrying his/her weight
Also, as our instructor, Jocelyn Javernick of Limetree Lending Inc., told us, women are feeling an increased need to escape an unfulfilling marriage. Jocelyn shared a quote from Warren Buffett: “Wait until women find out that they are the real slaves of the world.”
She told the class that 70% of divorces are being initiated by women (of all ages), and that 50% of them are insisting they never want to marry again.
Jocelyn said the most common reasons for divorce (apparently in the order in which they were cited in surveys) are:
Loss of respect
Too much conflict; incessant arguing
Minor children
Illness
Lack of commitment
Infidelity
Lack of emotional and/or physical intimacy
Communication problems
Domestic violence
Financial pressures
Lack of shared interest
Marrying too young
Unrealistic expectations
External family pressures
Trust issues
Parenting differences
Not supportive of each others’ goals
Education
Income disparity
One always hopers for an amicable separation and divorce, which is what my stepson achieved last year with his divorce. They agreed that he would buy out her co-ownership of their home, paying her an agreed-upon sum in return for the two of them quit-claiming the house to him alone. Having no children further simplified the process. When that’s the case, lawyers don’t have to be engaged.
Jocelyn provided the class with a guidebook to share with divorcing couples, with the aim not just of educating divorcing couples on the process, but also minimizing legal fees for them. The goal should always be to engage a mediator, and to not leave a mediation session without a signed document embodying what was agreed upon. Jocelyn provided the contact info for mediators who specialize in divorce.
As for real estate, if one party isn’t buying out the other’s share of ownership, it’s important to hire the right real estate agent, and that they agree upon who that is. One party may want to hire an agent who suggests a listing price higher than the other party’s agent, but choosing that
We were provided with a template for a court order that I can share with you. Submitting a ready-made court order to your attorney instead of having him pound it out at $500 per hour, can help to reduce the costs of going through the process, because, even when the parties have agreed to the terms of a divorce, a judge must approve the agreement and will want to hear from each party to make sure that the agreement is fair and not the product of a coercive marital relationship.
Jocelyn has found that most couples with a home to sell have only consulted Zillow regarding the valuation of their home. We real estate professionals have far better tools for properly valuing a home based on the analysis of appropriate comparable sales. In a non-amicable divorce, the parties might agree on hiring an appraiser, but appraisals are not what you need, because they don’t include an analysis of current market conditions, competing listings, and other
Eighty percent of divorces include real estate, but too many divorcing couples leave money on the table because of bad advice about their home’s value, and have spent way more money than they should have on legal representation, when a non-lawyer real estate professional like myself can help them work through at least the process of liquidating what is probably the biggest asset of their marriage.

Warren Tech grads chart courses in aviation
For three graduating seniors at Je co Public Schools’ Warren Tech, high school wasn’t just about nishing assignments and earning credits. ey spent their time logging simulated ight hours, learning the ins and outs of aviation and aircraft maintenance technology, designing aerospace components and gearing up for careers in aviation and aerospace.
Kora Redenbarger, Michael Metzger and Keegan McCray are among the 2025 graduates of the district’s career and technical education campus.
Each has completed a specialized pathway in elds ranging from aviation management to aircraft maintenance, advanced 3D printing and business administration.
“It’s (Warren Tech) a program that gives students real-world exposure and real opportunities,” said Sophia Rodriguez, instructional coach for Warren Tech’s science and aerospace programs. “ ese kids are not just preparing for college. ey’re preparing for careers in high-demand industries.”
From airport operations to aviation management
For Redenbarger, the path to aviation management began with a fascination for how airports function. After interning at Denver International Airport, she discovered a passion for operations and logistics. Redenbarger, who is hard of hearing in one ear, said she found con dence in the program’s supportive environment. She described learning to adapt in noisy cockpit simulations and emphasized the importance of her customized headset.
Another pivotal moment came during a dinner with two professional pilots. “Just hearing everyone’s progress and their paths — it was really motivating,” Redenbarger said. “ at was when I realized this is totally what I want to do.”
Outside of class, she plays the tuba in the Front Range Youth Symphony and her home school’s marching band.
She will attend Western Michigan University to study aviation management and operations, with hopes of one day returning to DIA in a leadership role.
Taking o with business and a pilot’s license
Metzger, a recent recipient of his private pilot’s license, pursued a dual pathway in business administration and aviation technology. He completed his ight hours at Centennial Airport and trained on ight simulators that replicate the exact plane he ies.
“It was a huge help to have the simulators,” he said. “ ey prepared me for the real thing.”
Metzger said the class gave him the foundational knowledge to pass the FAA’s written knowledge test and the con dence to y solo.
“It was weird at rst,” he said. “Just being able to walk out, get in the plane and take o . It felt surreal.”
He has already taken friends and family on ights around the Denver area, including sightseeing trips over the city.
Metzger plans to attend Auburn University and continue ying while pursuing a degree in aviation. He said the
combination of hands-on learning and academic rigor helped him feel ready for the next step.
Hands-on learning takes flight
McCray found his calling in Warren Tech’s Aircraft Maintenance Technology and Advanced 3D Printing programs. A Lakewood native, McCray said he struggled in a traditional high school setting and was drawn to the program’s focus on applied learning.
“I liked being able to take things apart and x them,” he said. “I learn best by doing, and this program really clicked for me.”
His projects included designing VR goggle components for the Lakewood SWAT team’s drone program and presenting a 3D printing design at NASA HUNCH, a national high school program for students interested in contributing to aerospace innovation.
His team’s project, a mini glove box simulating astronaut glove conditions, earned
him the chance to present in Houston. McCray also works at a local youth makerspace teaching 3D modeling and printing to younger students, and said he enjoys passing along what he’s learned.
“I’ve been into 3D printing since I was 10,” he said. “And now I get to help kids get excited about it, too.”
He will attend Kansas State University to study aviation maintenance management and said he hopes to eventually return to Colorado to work for a major airline like United at DenverInternational Airport.
Preparing students for takeo
Rodriguez explained that Warren Tech’s aviation-related programs are among only a few in the country recognized by the Federal Aviation Administration.
“ ese are students who will enter college with experience most freshmen don’t have,” said Rodriguez. “ ey understand the industry, they’ve worked with professionals and they’ve had access to equipment that mirrors what they’ll encounter in their careers.”
Rodriguez said that one of the program’s strengths is its ability to connect classroom learning to real-world applications.
“Our students see the relevance in what they’re learning,” she said. “ ey see how it ts into the bigger picture.”
She also emphasized the a ordability of early credentialing opportunities.
“ ey’re not spending thousands of dollars that they would have to pay for training elsewhere. ey get that training here in school,” Rodriguez said. “And we’re talking about certi cations that would cost tens of thousands.”
Students in Warren Tech’s aviation programs can graduate with FAA sign-o s to pursue certi cations like the airframe license, and they can prepare for the FAA’s Part 107 exam, which certi es them as commercial drone operators.
“It’s a fraction of the cost,” she said, “and it gives them a serious head start.”
As they graduate and head into the next phase of their education, Redenbarger, Metzger and McCray leave Warren Tech with skills, certi cations and a sense of direction.
“It’s been really empowering,” Redenbarger said. “I’m excited to see where it takes me.”

Parents decry federal cuts to Medicaid
Rep. Pettersen hosts talk about looming cuts
BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SUZIE@COTLN.ORG
“If Medicaid was taken away, I would lose half my family before the year was out.” at’s the warning Kat, a Je erson County mother of ve, gave U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen during a roundtable just before Mother’s Day, describing how she relies on Medicaid to care for a child with autism, a son with speech issues and her aging mother.
e May 9 meeting in Edgewater, hosted by Pettersen, focused on how proposed federal budget cuts could a ect Colorado families. At the time, participants feared what might happen.
Now, many of those same cuts are included in a sweeping spending and tax bill that House Republicans are expected to vote on this week.
e proposal, packed with GOP priorities, would make wide-reaching changes to Medicaid, SNAP food assistance and income taxes. It would also impose new restrictions on states, increase defense and immigration spending and make several Trump-era tax cuts permanent.
e legislation could result in more than 7.6 million Americans losing Medicaid coverage over the next 10 years, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget O ce. e bill also targets SNAP, or food stamps, which supports more than 42 million Americans nationwide.
Less money for services
Under the proposal, SNAP recipients ages 55 to 64 would face new work requirements, and eligibility would be limited to U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents. States would be required to take on a larger share of SNAP costs, and future presidential administrations would be barred from expanding food assistance without congressional approval.
For working parents like Sunny Greer, those changes don’t sound hypothetical. ey feel personal.
“My son is talking. He is walking. He is thriving,” said Greer, a former Head Start parent who now works full-time for the program. “Losing those therapies would be devastating.”
Greer said Medicaid covered early intervention services for her autistic son and medical support for her husband after a lifethreatening illness.
“Had we not had that initial support, he probably would have ended up on disability and unable to work for the rest of his life,” she said.
Another mom warned that without mental health and behavioral support, children struggling in school may end up in jail.
“If we’re not putting money into these services, we’re going to put money into the jails,” she said.
Participants described a fragile safety net that barely holds together low- and middleincome families, especially in counties like Weld, Adams and Je erson, where tens of thousands of residents rely on Medicaid or SNAP to survive.
According to data from Hunger Free Colorado and the U.S. Census:
Adams County had approximately 58,142 SNAP recipients in 2022 Weld County had about 31,600 Je erson County had around 54,540 households receiving food assistance, which includes SNAP bene ts
Meanwhile, more than 150,000 residents across the three counties are enrolled in public health insurance programs like Medicaid and Child Health Plan+, according to state data.
“What’s going to happen to these kids coming up through our programs if they can’t get services?” asked one mom. “Some of them will die.”
Pettersen, a Democrat who has shared her experience growing up on Medicaid and SNAP, said she planned to bring these stories back to Washington.
“Nobody ghts harder than a mom,” she said. “ ese voices are what we need to keep front and center.”
Pettersen said she sees it as her responsibility not only to vote against harmful cuts, but also to show up in her district and listen.
When asked what she says to colleagues who haven’t held similar community meetings or town halls, Pettersen didn’t hesitate to answer.
“I think it’s critical. It’s our job to show up,” she said. “ at doesn’t mean I don’t get yelled at. I show up and listen to people, even when they disagree with me. It’s a shame that some of my colleagues across the aisle aren’t doing that important part of the job, especially on issues like this, with such sweeping impacts on the people we all represent.”
e GOP bill is expected to reach the House oor by May 22. With no Democratic support expected, Republicans can a ord to lose only three votes.
Evans, a Republican representing parts of Weld and Adams counties, will likely support the bill. Evans has voiced support for Trump’s proposals to reduce federal spending and impose stricter eligibility rules for safety-net programs.
e Colorado Trust for Local News reached out to Rep. Evans’ o ce with questions about the legislation and his position on the proposed cuts. is article will be updated if he responds.
Even if the legislation passes the House, it
faces challenges in the Senate, where Democrats hold a slim majority. Provisions around Medicaid, SNAP, and private school vouchers are expected to be heavily debated, and the bill’s nal version could look signi cantly different before it reaches the president’s desk.

Arvada man arrested for attacking server with a gun at Rock Rest Lodge
BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CORINNE@COTLN.ORG
An Arvada man has been arrested after he reportedly choked a server and threatened her with a gun on May 21 at the Golden-area Rock Rest Lodge.
e Je erson County Sheri ’s O ce con rmed Brandon Montano, 30, is in custody on suspicion of second-degree kidnapping, second-degree assault - strangulation, menacing and other crimes. He is being held on a $100,000 cash bond, JCSO con rmed.
Montano will appear in court May 29 where the District Attorney’s O ce is expected to le formal charges against him.
According to JCSO spokesperson Jacki Kelley, the Rock Rest server Montano reportedly attacked didn’t sustain any serious injuries.
“ e suspect is in custody, and the victim is going to be ne,” Kelley said. “It’s a successful ending to a really bad situation.”
Kelley said that, in this case, the server was able to ght o her attacker despite him being armed. However, she emphasized that the Sheri ’s O ce isn’t “encouraging people to ght all the bad guys” while also “giving (the server) credit for what she did to protect herself.”
Kelley added: “Every situation is going to be di erent. ere are too many variables on how to respond. In this case, this worked very well for this victim, and we’re proud of her for the way she handled this. But that isn’t always going to be the case.”
According to the arrest a davit led against Montano, around 1:45 p.m. on May 21, Montano walked into the Rock Rest
Lodge, sat down and ordered a beer. He told the server he had been at the Rock Rest previously, and asked if he could check the women’s restroom for an item his girlfriend or wife might’ve left in there. e server went into restroom to look for it, and saw that Montano had followed her inside.
According to the a davit, Montano then pushed the server into a restroom stall and started choking her in a headlock-type maneuver. He also pulled out a handgun from his front waistband and pointed it at her head.
e server told authorities that she started to ght back, and at one point, the magazine fell out of the handgun. Believing the gun would only have one round in it, she fought against Montano and tried to point the gun at the ground and pull the trigger. She did, but the handgun didn’t re. She successfully removed the gun from Montano, ran out of the restroom and alerted her coworkers. Two of them were able to subdue Montano until law enforcement o cers arrived.
He was taken into custody without further incident, JCSO con rmed.
Based on other details included in the afdavit, Montano may have been stalking the server both physically and online. e server told authorities she recognized Montano from another restaurant she worked at previously. e server also said she posted on social media May 21 that people should “come see her” at the Rock Rest Lodge, according to the a davit. e Sheri ’s O ce added that the investigation into the May 21 incident is ongoing.
Je erson Symphony Orchestra closes 2024-25 season with “Star Wars” concert
BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CORINNE@COTLN.ORG
Music is much like the Force from the “Star Wars” franchise.
To paraphrase Jedi Master Yoda, music surrounds people and binds them together. One must feel the music around them, between the violins, the trumpets, the utes, the drums — everywhere. Even between the conductor and the audience. at’s exactly what Music Director J. Arturo González and the Je erson Symphony Orchestra members were hoping for on May 18, as they hosted a special “Star Wars”-themed concert as their 2024-25 season nale.
e orchestra hosted back-to-back shows at Colorado School of Mines’ Green Center, where hundreds of “Star Wars” and symphony fans packed the house for both performances. A good portion of both attendees and orchestra members wore costumes or “Star Wars”-themed apparel for the shows.
Among them was Conifer’s Stark family.
Molly Stark said she and her two children had never been to a JSO performance before, but they love “Star Wars” and were excited to hear the music live. ey especially enjoyed hearing “Across the Stars” and “Parade of the Ewoks.”
e family members said they had a great time and would be willing to come back to another JSO performance.
González said that was one of his goals for the show, explaining how this type of concert is “a good way to bring in a di erent type of audience” and that he wanted newcomers to enjoy their experience and return for another show.
JSO concert organizers con rmed attendance for the May 18 “Star Wars” concerts was higher than normal, but that was partly because the orchestra hosted two shows rather than one.
Violinist Martha Finch, who was dressed as Senator Padmé Amidala, was excited to see such a large turnout. She added how
May the Music Be With You
she and her colleagues “love the community” and want to see people engage more with their concerts.
e orchestra’s next event will be its Aug. 17 summer concert at Heritage Lakewood Belmar Park. Finch, González and others invited everyone to enjoy the Music of the 1980s program, including movie soundtracks like “E.T.” and “Back to the Future,” as well as ‘80s rock music, Broadway songs and more.
“We’re here,” González said of JSO. “I think it’s the best and highest-quality community orchestra in Colorado.”
A real Cantina Band
González, who was closing out his second season as JSO’s music director and conductor, told attendees that he’s been a longtime “Star Wars” fan. He described how he saw the original lm in theaters in 1977 and how the original trilogy brings back memories of his family.
González recalled that moment in the theater, when the rst notes of John Williams’ iconic score blasted over the title and opening crawl.
“In two seconds, the composer tells you what the movie is about,” González told attendees. “ … at gives you a predisposition to pay attention.”
During the show, González encouraged attendees to “break the pattern a little bit” from a regular show by cheering, clapping and holding their lightsabers aloft during their favorite numbers.
Afterward, González told e Transcript how he’s done a “Star Wars”-themed show before with other groups and was excited to do it this year with JSO.
e May 18 program consisted of 11 pieces from the original trilogy and just “Across the Stars” from the prequel trilogy. González explained that JSO featured those pieces because it already owned the music and the rights to perform them.
However, he said his dream is to perform Williams’ music from all nine Skywalkersaga lms, including the prequel trilogy’s “Duel of the Fates,” which features a full choir. Organizing and performing such a large-scale concert would be complicated and expensive, but he said he hopes to do it one day.
While not all the orchestra members enjoy “Star Wars” as much as he does,
González appreciated their team work and passion for the franchise’s music.
Violinist Atsuko Ohtake, who dressed as the Jedi-trained warrior Ahsoka Tano, explained how one of her fellow violinists is a big “Star Wars” fan and suggested characters for her colleagues to dress as, including Ohtake as Ahsoka.
Ohtake said she didn’t know much about the character, but from what she’d heard, they have very similar personalities.
Overall, Ohtake described how she enjoyed the concert, adding that Williams’ music is “a lot of fun to play.”
Finch likewise described the music as “challenging but rewarding to play,” adding how she didn’t fully appreciate it until she started playing it.
“It’s great to play,” she continued. “I like
that it uplifts you and gives you those (inspirational) moments.”
While “Star Wars” was a fun experiment for 2025, González said JSO has an equally exciting lineup planned for its 2025-26 shows. e Oct. 12 season opener will include Ludwig van Beethoven’s world-famous “Symphony No. 5” and the May 17, 2026 season nale will feature music from Gustav Holst’s “ e Planets.”
González said the latter will be a partnership with Mines and the Denver Children’s Choir, describing how he wants to turn the Green Center into a planetariumtype experience for the show.
“Come listen to us,” he said of JSO. “ … We do electrifying music.”

Be perfectly comfortable for Goldengrass
Hurry, hurry, hurry, it’s starting today!
Ok, you don’t have to run that fast, it’s actually going on all weekend. I’m talking abut the 9th Annual Goldengrass Bluegrass Weekend happening at New Terrain Brewing Co. here in Golden. For all you Bluegrass fans, there are two annual events that happen every year in our fair city. One of them is Ullrgrass and that’s outdoors in the middle of winter. You have to dress up like a Viking storming Iceland to get through that one. is is the other one. You can wear your shorts and ip ops and be perfectly comfortable for Goldengrass.
So, here’s the scoop: It’s basically a festival type of thing that features 11 di erent Bluegrass bands from Colorado, Arkansas, New Mexico and Wisconsin performing outside on the patio and it runs from today, ursday May 29 through Sunday, June 1.
It’s happening at a brewery and tap room, so yes, they are going to be serving all kinds of craft beers from several bars on the premises but they will also have several food trucks, an ice cream truck and face painting on Saturday and Sunday.
AVENUE FLASHES
Igrew up in a family with clear and consistent routines. On weeknights, everyone was in bed by 9 p.m.
WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT
Saturdays included a scheduled twohour slot for cleaning the house. My assigned tasks for that work always included vacuuming, while my sister took care of cleaning the bathrooms. We knew, every night, that dinner started a little after 5:30 p.m. and we each sat in “our spots” around the circular table in the kitchen for that meal.
ose dinners were a formative time for me. We shared details of our day, and at some point, in the conversation, usually my father, but occasionally my mother, would be reminded of a tale and share a story from their younger days. We heard about Mom’s childhood experiences living on Detroit Street in Denver and stories of Dad’s family with nine children. We knew the stories by heart but always enjoyed the tales and especially the punchline explaining things like advice my paternal grandfather gave his children, “if you have to do that (pass gas) step toward the cellar door” or him explaining to the seven boys in the family that he helped around the house declaring, “just watch me, when Mom is really busy in the morning, I will get my own spoon and bowl.”
ose tales helped me develop a love of stories, taught me the power of conversation, and the comfort of consistency. ey also enhanced my love of history. I realize now that those stories did even more. ey aided in de ning us as a family and me as an individual. Knowing those stories meant understanding my place in the family, it gave context to my existence in time and space. As I moved out into the world, it gave me a rudder for supporting my decisionmaking.
Here’s the band schedule: ursdayArkansauce 6-9 p.m., Friday- e Millbillies 4-5:30 p.m., Easy Tiger 6-7:30 p.m. and e Fretliners 8-9:30 p.m., Saturday- Deep Creek Sharp Shooters 2-3:30 p.m., Foggy Memorie Boys 4-5:30 p.m., Coral Creek 6-7:30 p.m. and Tyler Grant’s Bluegress Farm 8-9:30 p.m., Sunday- Timber! Noon-1:30 p.m., Slay & Stinson 2-3:30 p.m. and Pick & Howl 4-5:30 p.m..

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Where are the jobs?
Since my diagnosis with MS in 2009, I have come to a greater understanding of the role of stories in my life. In those rst three years after my diagnosis, when I struggled, many of the stories I told myself were about declining ability, loss of opportunity, and all the things that I would miss because of the disease. Day after day, I was living out that debilitating and angry narrative.
My life changed forever when, instead of seeing loss, I saw possibility and began to tell myself stories of limitless potential. It was in those new stories where I found hope and encouragement. It was in those new stories that I was able to rede ne myself, my worth, and my opportunities. It was in those stories that I, among so many other things, found my voice as a writer. Every day, we tell ourselves stories. If the ones you are telling yourself are limiting, it
is time to change the narrative. It is time to tell the tale of possibility. You have got this. I hope my words encourage you and that you will share them with those who need support. ank you to everyone who has shared their stories with me so far; I truly appreciate hearing about the valuable ideas you nd in these columns and how you.
Jim Roome lives in Arvada with his wife, Beth. He spent 34 years in public education. Lessons learned from the one two punch of being diagnosed with MS shortly before his best friend was diagnosed with terminal cancer led him into a new pursuit as a freelance writer and speaker. He uses his life experiences and love of stories to inspire, educate and encourage local, national and international audiences. Contact him at jim. roome@gmail.com.
“Where are all of the jobs,” a concerned job seeker writes. How much more time and money will it take? How many more hundreds of applications, and how many more hours of resume and cover letter customization will there be?
How many more Job Fairs, letters to employers, post interview follow ups, and personal walk in to local businesses to express interest will be enough? How many more hours will I spend doing prompts and traveling to interview number two and three? How many more workshops on topics related to resumes, interview success, will bring a job?
How many more jobs will I be overquali ed for, and any hours of the week will I need to consider working? How many more times will my references need to verify the quality of my work? Will it be until I am homeless?
How many more days will I need to wash my clothes in my tub and skip meals? How will I qualify for my apartment? How many more times will I need to put on my business clothes? How many more jobs will I accept and lose right away due to their hiring practices? How many more people who rely on me, will I have to let down?
Jobs that would barely cover the rising cost of my basic needs with no debts. I have lived in this town my whole adult life, and never had such struggle to work.
Sincerely a concerned Job Seeker with years of experience with nothing counting against them.

DFF Women+Film Festival highlights power of story
Ever since the development of lm as an artistic medium, women have been some of its most dynamic storytellers, both in front of and behind the camera. ey’ve often been denied the recognition they deserve, but with its annual Women+Film Festival, Denver Film strives to ensure the works made by these creative voices are seen.
“We look through hundreds of lms — both features and shorts — to ensure our nal selections create a welcoming space for underrepresented voices, our local community and people new to the independent lm scene,” wrote Ambriehl Turrentine, programming manager with Denver Film, in an email interview. “Getting to see audiences and lmmakers connect, re ect and empower one another through further dialogue is such a beautiful experience and reminder of why festivals matter.”
e festival begins on Friday, May 30 and runs through Sunday, June 1 at the Sie FilmCenter, 2510 E. Colfax Ave. Attendees will be able to see features and short lms as part of the event, as well as take part in a range of special discussions and activities. One of the event highlights is the annual Barbara Bridges Inspiration Award, which is going to Julia Stiles, who will be on hand to screen her directorial debut lm “Wish You Were Here.”
We interviewed Turrentine about the festival, what she hopes audiences take away and more.
Interview edited for brevity and clarity. What kind of lms were you looking for this year?
Beyond the lms being directed by and about women, I like to program lms with care and purpose by looking for complex stories that can ultimately broaden our

understanding of the world and each other. is year’s curated lineup certainly leans into that mission — from our Opening Night lm, “Sally,’ which explores the career of astronaut Sally Ride and the sacri ces made in her personal life for social acceptance, to our Closing Night lm, “ e Librarians,” which showcases librarians (some of whom will attend inperson) on the frontlines ghting against censorship in the US.
If someone has never participated in the festival, what do you want them to know?
For someone new to Women+Film or lm festivals in general, I’d want them to know that they are not only welcome to attend but also to participate. Attendees can expect to take a walk with compelling, independent stories from around the globe celebrating women in all their glory as well as engage with lmmakers, panelists and cinephile strangers (who hopefully won’t be strangers for long). is festival is just as much about our audiences as it is what’s presented on screen. What do you hope audiences come away with?
Our goal is always transformation, so I hope our audiences leave moved, inspired and challenged to assess life differently — whether that be about identity, experiences or the power of storytelling itself. I hope they develop a deeper appreciation for the independent lm scene,

With a baton in my hand, I stood in front of the judge with a big performance smile on my face and prepared myself to march 32 steps in a square. e music started. And as I began my routine, the 7-year-old me accidentally ung my baton at the judge, hitting her. With mixed emotions, I ran as quickly as I could to grab my baton, went back to my spot and began to march. e music had ended, but I completed the last 11 steps and struck a pose.
Shockingly, I received rst place in that competition.
But my mom brought me up to the judge to ask why I was given rst place. e judge said I had good technique. Still, I dropped my baton when no one else in my category did. So I ended up giving my rst-place trophy to the girl who got second place. at moment not only taught me the importance of practice and consistency, it also taught me about sportsmanship and being the best athlete I can be — on and o the oor.
When I tell someone that I have been baton twirling all my life, there are always a couple of common phrases that I hear: “Oh! My mom used to do that,” or, “Isn’t that the thing where you spin a stick?”
While my mom’s background in baton twirling is the reason I got into it, it is much more than just “spinning a stick.” For me — and many others —
it has been something that has not only kept me active, but has allowed me to travel, have once-in-a-lifetime opportunities and create lasting and meaningful relationships.
My mom used to teach baton twirling, and she would have to do it with me on her hip. e only way she got me to go away was if I had my own baton. Some might say she forced it onto me, but I believe that I was destined to do it.
Having been entangled in twirling for over two decades, it has been fascinating to see how it has evolved.
Misconceptions about baton twirling
Baton twirling is not just waving or throwing a baton in the air — it is an intricate skill that takes hours of practice and dedication. e coordination and multitasking that is involved in this activity is like the ultimate rubbing your stomach and tapping your head.
However, there are some misconceptions about the sport that the general public might have.
Depending on what you have seen when it comes to baton twirling, a common image people associate with twirling is the majorette on a football eld. While twirlers do wear costumes, put on makeup and perform on football elds, the skill level and opportunities to perform — and compete — has only grown.
It’s also a misconception that baton twirling is something only girls do. In the United States and in dozens
of other countries, boys and men can also be seen performing at football games, but they have also represented baton twirling on stage at festivals, in tv commercials and even on ”America’s Got Talent.”
Baton twirling is still an active and thriving sport throughout the entire country. Yes, I said sport. Growing up, there was always debate on whether or not baton twirling is a sport.
Baton twirling is a sport
In the twirling community, we often say that baton twirlers have a lot of the same skills and qualities as other athletes. For example, the exibility and strength of a gymnast, the eye-hand coordination of a basketball or baseball player, the speed of a sprinter and the endurance of a long-distance runner.
ere is no singular de nition of what a sport is, however, various dictionaries describe a sport using similar language. According to the Oxford dictionary, a sport is “an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment.” Cambridge dictionary denes a sport as “a game, competition or activity needing physical e ort and skill that is played or done according to rules for enjoyment and/or as a job.” Both de nitions state that a sport is an activity that involves skill and physical e ort.

TWIRLING
e sport of twirling is based around a baton, which is a metal shaft with two rubber ends, one bigger than the other. With a balance point in the middle of the baton, the larger end provides the momentum needed to create revolution and accomplish ips and large aerials. e uneven weight distribution also allows the twirler to control the speed and direction that the baton moves.
Let’s quickly break down one of the most basic twirls: a thumb ip. is skill is the backbone to everything else that we do.
Holding the middle of the baton, the twirler rotates their hand clockwise and rolls the baton partially over their thumb before pushing it up into the air.
Using this skill, twirlers can make the baton do ips from one hand to another, behind their head and toss the baton higher in the air to complete a spin, dance or acrobatic move underneath. ere are also a variety of catches, such as catching behind the back and under the leg.
Just like any other athlete, the sport comes with injuries. It’s not uncommon to see competitive twirlers with tape on their ngers, knees or ankles. I have had my fair share of broken noses, busted lips, sprains, concussions and pulled muscles. e de nitions of a sport also state that the activity includes competition, and has rules. In twirling, some of these include competing in the appropriate age category, wearing speci c shoes and matching the level of di culty to a certain level.
Although I started out twirling for fun as a child — performing in dozens of parades, malls and senior living facilities — as I got older, I became enamored with watching highly-skilled and experienced twirlers compete.
Twirlers can compete, within appropriate skill and age level, in individual events, pairs, trios and in teams. Some individual events focus on how the twirler can combine dance and gymnastics with twirling, while other individual events include twirling multiple batons.
When I performed, my favorite individual event was called freestyle because you would perform to a song of your choice instead of the standardized music. Athletes must pass various levels of speci c skills in front of a judge to be able to compete in this event. Athletes are judged on the technique of the twirling as well as the
artistic expression.
It’s nerve-racking to be standing on the side of the competition oor getting ready to perform by yourself. But there’s an unmatched thrill that you feel when you catch your most dicult trick, and again when you hit the ending pose and the music fades out and the applause starts.
However, it’s the moments on the practice oor with my teammates that I cherish the most. Like freestyle, the team can twirl to a song of their choice, but the routines are judged on synchronization, artistic expression and exchanges.
It’s this event that introduced me to my closest friends, which I still have today. In all my years of twirling, it’s the team practices that I have the most fond memories of. ere was always some type of inside joke, a scary moment that would eventually become funny and just being able to have fun with your friends.
It’s a heartwarming feeling knowing I was always going to be supported.
Beyond the competition floor
For 15 years, I won multiple state, regional and national titles. I was the feature twirler for my high school, where I had the opportunity to twirl with re. I twirled down Main Street USA in Disney World and I have performed in front of sold-out stadiums at Metropolitan State University and University of Colorado Boulder.
Now I coach the next generation of twirlers. And the experiences above don’t compare to the pride that comes with being a coach and sharing the love of baton twirling with others.
I wasn’t expecting to ever become a coach. I can vividly recall the day my own coach invited me to help with baton classes. Nerves overtook me that day. But eight years later, getting to introduce students to the sport and watching them accomplish their goals is a feeling that is hard to describe.
I thought I had experienced a lot as an athlete, but once I became a coach, I began to see the unlimited opportunities available to my students. And it’s not all about competitions. ey have performed with lighted batons in numerous local parades — including the Parade of Lights — twirled down the streets of Ireland on St. Patrick’s Day and performed at the Indy 500.
Whether it’s teaching one-on-one lessons or group classes or watching my students perform, seeing them nd joy in a sport that I grew up loving is always a surreal moment.
For me, baton twirling is more than a sport. It’s more than a passion. It has allowed me to experience all of what life has to o er.

Golden baseball makes 4th consecutive trip to 4A state tournament
BY DENNIS PLEUSS SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
e beat goes on for Golden baseball. e Demons won their fourth straight Class 4A regional title on Saturday to send Golden to its fourth consecutive 4A state tournament in Colorado Springs. Golden defeated Longmont and Pueblo South in the 4A Region 4 tournament at Golden High School to advance yet again to the state tournament.
“ ey are all special,” Golden Coach Jackie McBroom said of the Demons heading back to state. “ ey all mean a lot. ey all have di erent memories, but I’m excited every single year we get to go back to the state tournament. You can never take it for granted.”
Golden senior Andrew Romero especially won’t be taking playing in the double-elimination state tournament for granted.
As a sophomore, Romero was a pinchrunner in the top of the seventh inning of the 4A state championship game against Severance. Romero was tagged out at the plate on the nal play as the Silver Knights won 1-0 to claim the state title.
Since that game, Romero has torn his ACL in his right knee twice. He missed his entire junior season after surgery, but then tore his ACL again at the start of the football season in his senior year. He elected not to have surgery right away, with the hope he could play baseball this spring with a brace.
Not playing baseball for a second straight year wasn’t an option for Romero.
“It was a frustration, but you just have to overcome it,” Romero said of his injury history. “I thank God every day that I can continue to play this sport and being here with my guys.”
Despite not being able to play on the

Golden claims baseball tournament berth
eld his junior year, Romero was still a major part of the Demons’ team that advanced to the Final 4 of the 4A state tournament last season.
“I’m happy for him,” McBroom said of Romero. “For a guy last year who was at every game, every practice and wanted to be on the eld. He was upbeat and the biggest cheerleader in the dugout. e fact that he got to experience this year playing all the time, winning a league championship and going to the state tournament again. I would be disappointed if he didn’t get to experience that.”
Romero was a catalyst for Golden’s offense in the regional title game against Pueblo South on Saturday. e Demons’ nine-hole hitter walked in the bottom of the second inning in a 2-2 game. A throwing error by the Colts’ catcher allowed Romero to race to third base. He scored the go-ahead run tagging up on a y ball to center eld by sophomore Dylan Paulson.
“He has been through so much,” Golden senior Sawyer Brinkman said of Romero. “Everyone has had their ups and downs, their rough patches. He has de nitely had the worst out of all of us. To see him ght through it and come out on top. He had one of his best games, in my opinion, of his life. Today is awesome to see.”
Romero started the Demons’ sevenrun bottom of the fth inning that put the game away. He doubled to lead o the inning and scored on an RBI single by senior Luca Casali. Romero came up again in the inning and had a two-run single to cap o the big inning.
“It felt great,” Romero said of his double and two-run single, both fth inning. “Just playing the game hard and playing the game the way it is supposed to be played. Overall, just having fun with it. It’s great to be out here.”
With a 10-2 lead heading to the sixth inning, McBroom turned to his ace to nish o the game. Brinkman had only thrown 40 pitches in three innings pitched in Golden’s 15-0 victory over Longmont earlier in the day.
Brinkman took the mound after senior
lefty Taden Svendsen had settled in after giving up a two-run rst inning.
“ ere was a little bit of nerves at rst,” Brinkman said of the regional title game against Pueblo South. “ e rst inning was a little rough, but as soon as we put two runs to even it up, I had complete faith in my guys. I knew Taden would go out there and dominate.”
Svendsen held the Colts scoreless in his nal four innings. Brinkman reeled o ve straight strikeouts in his two innings pitched in the regional title game. e only ball Pueblo South was able to put in play ended the game with senior Jaydon Stroup elding the ball at shortstop and ring it over to Casali for the nal out.
“It’s an opportunity again,” McBroom
‘Absolutely amazing’ finish for
Evergreen girls soccer hunts down back-to-back 4A state titles
BY DENNIS PLEUSS
SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
e frustration of three Class 4A girls soccer state runner-up nishes over a ve-year span is well in the rear-view mirror for the Evergreen Cougars.
“It’s absolutely amazing,” Evergreen senior Lucia Spungin said after the Cougars defeated Windsor 4-3 in penalty kicks late on Tuesday night at Weidner Field in Colorado Springs. “It’s the topping on top of the cake.”
It was Evergreen’s fth appearance in the 4A girls soccer championship game over the past nine years. e Cougars were 4A state runner-up in 2017,
2019 and 2021. Evergreen nally broke through winning the 4A championship game over Lutheran last year at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.
e Cougars were the underdogs a season ago as the No. 14 seed. Evergreen defeated the No. 3 (Windsor) and No. 2 (North eld) on the way to the title.
“It was de nitely a lot di erent,” Spungin said of winning last year as the No. 14 seed compared to being the favorite as the No. 1 seed this year. “ e team had a lot more con dence this year coming into each game. We still had to stay modest. We had a lot more con dence this time.”
Going from being the hunter to the hunted as the defending state champs was a change for Evergreen that returned several players from last year’s state championship squad.
“It was a chance in mindset, but never once did we change in how we played,” said Evergreen junior Gianna Weiner, who assisted on the Cougars’ game-
said. “We’ll see what we do with it.” e 4A state tournament will be played in Colorado Springs at two sites — Air Force Academy and the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs — starting on Friday, May 16.
Check the Golden Transcript’s website for more updates after this story has gone to print.
Golden’s lone baseball state championship came over 20 years ago. e Demons won the 4A title in 2003, defeating Mountain View twice on a Saturday at All-City Field in Denver.

Evergreen soccer
tying goal by sophomore Elle Buenning in the 54th minute that eventually sent the game into overtime tied 1-1. “We had challenges both years.”
Evergreen had one-goal wins over Erie, Windsor and North eld in the earlier rounds a year ago before defeating Lutheran 2-0 in the championship game.
“To me, there wasn’t much di erence,” Evergreen Coach Peter Jeans said of being the No. 14 or No. 1 seed. “You have to play great teams in the playo s, no matter what seed you are at. You have to win your games and you have to perform. ese girls did it.”
Evergreen was able to exercise the demons of Weidner Field. e championship soccer games were moved to Colorado Springs this season. It was the same location for the 2021 soccer championships, where Holy Family edged Evergreen 2-1.
“We didn’t talk about that at all,” Weiner said of the 2021 runner-up squad that
lost at Weidner Field against Holy Family. “We were more focused on what we could do. (Windsor) had a very good team on the eld. We were de nitely focused on that.”
After back-to-back 4A state titles with a team with a very talented junior class, along with sophomore goalie Avery Mahnken back, the Cougar players can turn their attention to a possible threepeat.
“I’m super excited for next year,” Weiner said. “I think we have some really good freshmen coming in.”
Jeans was a little more reserved after Evergreen nished o the postseason grind of winning a state championship and nishing o a 17-12 record.
“We’ll just savor this one,” Jeans said when asked about a three-peat.
