Douglas County helps put focus on child abuse

MY NAME IS

AJ KIKUMOTO

Former Denver Nuggets dancer, Mrs. Highlands Ranch About me I was raised in Boise, Idaho on the Loveland Ranch. I was raised with great morals, values, hard work ethic and grit. I graduated from Boise State University. I was the Mane Line Dancers president my senior year of college. I served a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints mission in Atlanta, Georgia for 19 months, where we focused on helping others and spreading the word of God. After that, I jumped in my car and drove to Colorado and tried out for the Denver Nuggets Dancers. I made the team and danced for a year. After that, I met my husband Charles at a church youth activity. We got married and moved to Chicago for a year and a half, where I worked for Ford Models.

We’ve been married for 16 years and we have six kids — five girls and one boy — ages 2-14. We are super busy. I’ve been either pregnant or nursing for the last seven years of my life.

Becoming Mrs. Highlands Ranch A year ago, our 7-year-old competed and won International Junior Miss.

Part of the opportunity was to go to the Mrs. Colorado pageant. I’m sitting there with some of the other queens’ moms and I’m going, “I can totally do this.”

You go onto their website, Mrs. Colorado America, and fill out an application to see if you’re a possible candidate and pay a fee. Then in August they announce the winners and tell you what your city or area title is. There is Mrs. Douglas County, Mrs. Lone Tree. I’m Mrs. Highlands Ranch.

This year, there are 48 contestants.

It’s huge. If you win the Mrs. Colorado pageant, you compete in Mrs. America and then Mrs. Universe.

Right now, I’m the local titleholder and I’m getting ready to compete for the state title. I’m going at it like a shark.

Community members take selfies with blue pinwheels, the national symbol for child abuse prevention, at an April 3 event honoring April as Child Abuse Prevention Month in Douglas County.

Guests gathered at the sheriff’s substation in Highlands Ranch, where they planted their pinwheels along Highlands Ranch Parkway.

AJ Kikumoto, who has been named Mrs. Highlands Ranch, loves spending time with her family and helping the needy. She finds out if she wins the Mrs. Colorado title the week of April 9.

Embracing self-care My favorite part of the pageant experience by far is the retrospection. Self-care is not selfish at all. The growth that I have had in a year is phenomenal. I’ve dropped over 65 pounds.

I’m fit. Last year, I could barely do one jumping jack. I’ve really enjoyed the physical and emotional aspect of building my self-confidence.

The interview process is 50 percent so I’ve been spending a lot of time practicing questions. You would think talking about yourself would be easy, but it’s not. My whole life has been my family and my kids and serving others.

Fun fact I’m an expert horseback rider. I love horses. That freedom of getting on a horse and running like the wind.

There are no cares in the world.

Symbolic pinwheels planted at ceremony as part of nationwide drive

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Highlands Ranch residents may wonder why shiny blue pinwheels line the south side of Highlands Ranch Parkway, near the sheriff ’s substation, at 9250 Zotos Drive.

On April 3, to address a growing concern in the community, Douglas County commissioners proclaimed April as Child Abuse Prevention Month at a ceremony at the sheriff ’s substation. The pinwheel — the national symbol for child abuse prevention — signifies “whimsy and childlike notions,” Prevent Child Abuse America says.

Douglas County commissioners, the department of human services,

the sheriff ’s department and the county’s faith-based partners hosted the ceremony.

Dozens of community members attended to show support, listen to speakers and plant pinwheels to honor the cause.

Thomas, whose district covers Highlands Ranch, painted a picture of the issue. The Douglas County Department of Human Services received 4,025 reports of child abuse or neglect in 2017, she said.

The goal of this month, Thomas said, is to “promote the social and emotional well-being of children and families.”

District Attorney George Brauchler, who has four young children, hopes that in the future, such a month won’t be needed.

“If we can do that job of protecting these kids, that is the best crime-fighting tool we could ever have,” he said.

For Spurlock, it will take a community effort to make a difference.

“If we make an effort in our school level and our community level, the home will follow,” he said.

State, Douglas County debut new first-responder training facility Traffic Incident Management center dedicated to fallen state troopers Jursevics, Donahue

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In 2015, Colorado State Patrol Trooper Jaimie Jursevics was hit and killed by a drunk driver while she directed traffic at an accident on Interstate 25 near Castle Rock.

In 2016, a passing trucker hit and killed Trooper Cody Donahue while he investigated a crash, also on I-25 near Castle Rock.

On April 5, officials from the Colorado Department of Transportation, the Colorado State Patrol and Douglas County held a ribbon cutting and grand opening for a new Traffic Incident Management training center, a facility that aims to help emergency responders work crash scenes more safely and efficiently. CDOT hopes agencies throughout the state come to the center to train.

Members of Jursevics’ and Donahue’s family attended the event.

“When events like this happen it just warms my heart,” said Velma Donahue, Cody Donahue’s wife. “To remember that people are still here

Velma Donahue places a hand on the shoulder of D.J. Jursevics. Donahue lost her husband, State Trooper Cody Donahue, in 2016 when he was hit and killed while working on Interstate 25. D.J. Jursevics lost his wife, State Trooper Jaimie Jursevics, in 2015 when she was also hit and killed while working along I-25.

JESSICA GIBBS and care.”

The center, which cost $1.5 million to build, is located in Douglas County, west of U.S. Highway 85 near Louviers.

Officials hailed the project as one that would increase safety for emergency responders and the public alike.

“I’m very proud that CDOT was a partner in this, that we were able to find the resources,” said CDOT Executive Director Michael Lewis. “But it’s

not about CDOT. It’s about all of us.”

Ryan Rice, director of operations for CDOT, said the center is the second of its kind in the nation and the first in Colorado.

Traffic Incident Management, or TIM, is a training program developed through the Strategic Highway Research Program and run through the National Highway Institute, the educational arm of the Federal Highway Administration.

CDOT searched for nearly two years for a location where it could build a TIM center in Colorado, Rice said.

When CDOT officials heard last year that Douglas County planned to construct an Emergency Vehicle Operation Center for law enforcement and youth driver training, they approached the county about partnering with CDOT and the Colorado State Patrol on a TIM project.

Douglas County had the land. CDOT had the $1.5 million needed for construction. From there, the project came together “very quickly,” Rice said.

“That was probably the tip of the success right there,” Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock said April 5, commending the role of public and private partnerships in bringing such projects to fruition. The EVOC center was constructed in part through a $3.3 million donation from Dave and Gail Liniger, Douglas County residents and founders of the real estate company RE/MAX. Now complete, the TIM track sits on a 2.7-acre corner of the county’s EVOC site. Stretching 1,100 feet in length and 80 feet in width, with guard rails and true-to-life paint, the TIM track is a replica of Colorado interstate.

Before authorities constructed the TIM site, they administered training through a four-hour course, sometimes online but typically in a classroom setting.

Directed by Wren T. Brown, founder of L.A.'s Ebony Repertory Theatre, August Wilson's Fences revolves around the life of garbage collector Troy Maxson.

Featuring a stellar cast of stars of stage and screen, Fences is a sensational drama that will move you deeply, staying with you long after you leave the theater.

Job opened when David Weaver accepted U.S. marshal post

Douglas County Republicans have spoken: County Treasurer Diane Holbert will fill the vacancy left by David Weaver and serve as the District 1 county commissioner through January, when Weaver’s term was set to end.

“I’ve been working for you for the past 15 years,” she told the Douglas County Republican Central Vacancy Committee. “My heart is here and I will work hard to ensure that our quality of life befits our beautiful community.”

The Douglas County Republican Party vacancy committee gathered April 9 at Rock Canyon High School

in Highlands Ranch to fill the opening created on the three-member Douglas County Board of Commissioners when Weaver accepted an appointment from President Donald Trump as Colorado’s United States marshal.

Weaver served as the District 1 county commissioner since 2014. Prior to that, he served with the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office for 33 years, including two terms as sheriff.

His District 1 seat — which serves Parker and Lone Tree — was already up for election this year, for which candidates were gearing up when news of his appointment broke.

Weaver said in a March news release he’d planned to run for another term before learning of his appointment as marshal.

Weaver was confirmed by the U.S. Senate on March 20. Douglas County Republicans had 10 days from April 1, the date Weaver vacated office, to fill his seat or the task would fall to Gov.

‘A fierce public-education advocate’ School board selects Thomas Tucker, leader of a district in Cincinnati, as new superintendent

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

He’s trustworthy, student-centered, an inspiration, a lifelong learner.

That’s how Douglas County School Board members described their choice for the district’s new superintendent. At a special meeting on April 5, the seven school board members voted unanimously to hire Thomas Tucker, the superintendent of Princeton City Schools in Cincinnati. Pending agreement on a contract, he will start in the 2018-19 school year.

“Ultimately, he struck me as an individual who cares very much about people,” board member Wendy Vogel said during the meeting at the district’s administration building in Castle Rock.

“The one comment he made to us that got to me the most is that public education saves lives. He is undoubtedly a fierce public-education advocate.”

The decision follows a recent shift of power on the school board.

In November, voters elected Anthony Graziano, Christina Schor, Krista Holtzmann and Kevin Leung to fill the seats of four reformminded members, signaling a change in a longstanding majority board that espoused policies that, to many people, caused an exodus of teachers in recent years. The board has since taken steps to undo decisions made

by the previous majority board, like rescinding a controversial voucher program that would have used public money to help parents pay for private schools.

To address the district’s need for additional funding, the school board is looking at tax measures for the November ballot. A bond measure would address capital needs and a mill levy override would address teacher pay, compensation and school programming.

For school board President David Ray, the board’s superintendent selection was of utmost importance.

“We absolutely know that this is probably one of the most important decisions we will make as a board,” he said.

“I’ve never seen a more dedicated group of volunteers who have put in so many hours to see what is right for our 68,000 kids.”

Colorado law requires a 14-day waiting period between naming of the finalist and offering a contract.

DCSD’s job posting indicated the annual salary would be in the $260,000 range, according to Ray. About Tucker Tucker expressed his gratitude to the school board.

“It’s a distinct honor and privilege to help lead one of America’s finest — and I do mean finest — public school systems,” Tucker said in a news release issued by the Douglas County School District.

Tucker was born and raised in northeastern Arkansas. He received his bachelor’s degree from Philander Smith College in Little Rock, Arkansas. He continued his education at Ohio State univerisity, where he received a doctorate in education with an emphasis in higher education,

Colleagues of Tucker applaud his leadership

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Thomas Tucker, the current superintendent of Princeton City Schools in Cincinnati, has been selected by the Douglas County School Board as the district’s new superintendent.

Tucker has 27 years of experience as classroom teacher, assistant principal, principal, director of secondary curriculum and superintendent. ALEX DEWIND student affairs and communication, and a master’s degree in educational policy and leadership.

He served 29 years in the Kansas and Ohio public school systems as classroom teacher, assistant principal, principal and director of secondary curriculum and superintendent, according to his website, www. tstucker.me.

Community members weigh in on board’s decision

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

For many community members, the Douglas County School Board’s selection of Thomas Tucker as permanent superintendent is another affirmation of the positive direction the school district is heading.

“I think it’s time that we have a student-focused leader,” said Stacey Chamaty, a parent of two students who lives in Castle Rock. “I feel like kids will be first for the first time in a long time.”

At a special meeting on April 5, after more than an hour of deliberation, school board members unanimously voted to hire Tucker, the superintendent of Princeton City Schools in Cincinnati, Ohio. Pending a contract agreement, he will begin in the 2018-19 school year.

During a public forum on April 3, Tucker identified himself as a teacher first. That resonated with Kallie Leyba, president of the local teacher’s union, Douglas County Federation.

“That’s probably the best thing we

could ask for in a superintendent,” said Leyba. “I think that Dr. Tucker is going to bring great energy and positive change to Douglas County.”

Andy Abner, principal of Rock Canyon High School, applauded the school board for including the community in the selection process. Over the past three months, the board held more than 15 meetings at various locations in Douglas County to get community input on traits sought in a superintendent.

“I’m just really looking forward to getting to know him,” Abner said of Tucker. “He has an impressive background. I’m excited to grow as a leader under his leadership.”

Chérie Garcia, the administrator of a public Facebook page called SPEAK for DCSD, praised the school board for its transparency. Prior to making their decision, the seven board members each gave a detailed review of the final two candidates: Tucker and Karen Brofft, superintendent of Lewis-Palmer School District. The meeting was live streamed for the public.

“What a breath of fresh air to watch the BOE discuss the candidates via live stream,” Garcia wrote in a Facebook post. “We all have canvassed, fought and volunteered hundreds of hours to elect our current BOE Directors for this moment. It’s a new day, folks.”

Garcia was rooting for Tucker, who on multiple occasions said public education saves lives.

“I’ve done some research and he has blown me away,” Garcia said.

“As a minority person, who was also raised in poverty, I can identify with his `Public education saved my life’ statement. It’s why I fight with my whole being for public education.”

Kristen DeBeer, the parent of a special-needs student, found comfort in Tucker’s stance on special education, which he calls a “moral obligation.”

“He obviously looks at the whole child and the best interest of each child,” DeBeer said.

“He just has an aura about him that makes me feel like he will be able to manage conflict with authority but also understanding and patience.”

Tom Burton, associate superintendent of Princeton City Schools, recalls a time when he was eating at a restaurant with his superintendent, Thomas Tucker.

An employee and former student approached Tucker, thanking him for his leadership at the school district in Cincinnati. She credited him for her graduating and getting promoted to her restaurant’s general manager training program.

“With tears in her eyes, she thanked him, because she had heard it was Dr. Tucker’s vision and passion to make sure each student would have an opportunity to cross the finish line,” said Burton.

For the past three years, Burton has worked under Tucker. That’s likely to soon change. Pending a contract agreement, Tucker will begin his endeavor as superintendent of Douglas County School District in the 2018-19 school year.

The school board selected Tucker as the sole finalist at a special meeting April 5.

The Licking Heights School District in Ohio, where Tucker served as superintendent from 2008-11, congratulated Tucker on his new position and wished him well in an April 10 email to Colorado Community Media.

“His time at Licking Heights was filled with tremendous change, as our student enrollment grew from 2,892 to over 3,200 students during his tenure,” said Mallory Sribanditmongkol, the district’s communications specialist. “Our district now stands at 4,400 students — and we continue to grow.”

Burton will be sad to see Tucker go, he said in a phone interview from Cincinnati on April 9. He describes Tucker’s leadership as collaborative, creative, communicative. When they periodically visit schools together, kids and staff know Tucker’s name, and he knows theirs.

“He is really engaged, I think that’s one of the things that separates him from a lot of other superintendents,” said Burton. “He’s not afraid to talk to anyone in the education community, and his passion is all about the students.”

Tucker has an open door policy for staff, Burton said. He’s a communicator with a coherent vision and mission. He’s a listener. He’s confrontational in a way that is respectful but clear.

“His passion is unparalleled,” said Burton. “I’ve never seen anything like it.”

When asked what Douglas County schools can expect from Tucker, Burton responded: “I think everyday he is going to come to work passionate, excited, willing to be creative to meet the needs of each student. He is going to be somebody that is very visible and somebody that is incredibly student-centered, and also somebody that is going to work collaboratively with staff and the educational community.”

Gun control urged at town hall in Highlands Ranch Congressman, senator were not in attendance

FROM COFFMAN’S CAMPAIGN

The manager for Mike Coffman’s campaign for re-election in the 6th Congressional District said the April 7 town halls were essentially political rallies. In an emailed statement on April 9, Tyler Sandberg also told Colorado Community Media the congressman, a Republican from Aurora, is dedicated to school safety.

“Mike Coffman was the first Member of Congress to hold a town hall after the tragedy in Parkland, FL,” Sandberg wrote. “It received national attention from CNN, LA Times, AP, etc. Since then Mike has held two additional town halls with high school students in the district – at Rangeview High School and Colorado Early Colleges of Aurora. He has also been meeting with every single superintendent and school safety officer in the district to seek their expertise and opinions on solutions to school violence.”

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Shannon Hayes, 21, sat in the gymnasium at ThunderRidge High School in Highlands Ranch on April 7 as a moderator for a panel on gun violence.

As questions continued, she couldn’t help but think back to 2013 and the day she sat in her AP calculus class at Arapahoe High School, prepping for final exams.

Her class was interrupted when a student armed with a gun stormed the school and opened fire, killing a classmate before taking his own life.

When the first shot rang out, Hayes thought she’d heard someone drop a textbook in the hall, but then it became the unmistakable sound of repeated gunfire, she said.

“I don’t remember going from sitting in my desk to hiding under my desk,” she said.

The shooting itself was brief but Hayes hid under her desk for roughly 30 minutes as her classroom went into lockdown. Beyond the door she could hear SWAT officers running through the halls, sometimes shouting “clear” over a fire alarm and PA system announcement telling them to stay sheltered.

“Everyone was kind of hiding under their desks,” she said. “I was definitely shaking.”

Waiting for the shooting to end,

TUCKER FROM PAGE 6

Tucker began his career in education as a teacher in 1989 at Jardine Middle School in Topeka, Kansas.

From 2008-11, he served as superintendent of Licking Heights Local School District in Pataskala, Ohio, which serves 4,300 students. He went on to become the superintendent of Worthington School District in Worthington, Ohio, from 2011-14. The district’s enrollment is more than 9,925 students.

In 2015, he was hired as superintendent of the Princeton City School District, serving 5,633 students. He was paid $145,000 a year, according to a local news outlet in Cincinnati.

In 2012, Tucker helped pass an incremental levy and no-new taxes $40 million bond issue. He was the first superintendent in Ohio to attempt and pass an incremental levy and bond issue on a single ballot.

Tucker was named National Superintendent of the Year by the American Association of School Administrators in 2016 and the National Alliance of Black School Educators in 2013.

When Tucker recently came to visit schools in Douglas County, he knew board members’ names before they introduced themselves, Ray said. Tucker did his research. He visited different

Crowds cheer at the Town Hall for Our Lives event April 7 in Highlands Ranch.

Hayes texted her mother the simple sentence: “I love you.”

Today Hayes is one of the student faces behind Never Again Colorado, the group that organized the March for Our Lives event on March 24 and flooded Denver’s Civic Center Park. On April 7, they held a quickly organized follow up, “Town Hall for our Lives,” for Colorado’s 6th Congressional District, which includes Highlands Ranch, Littleton, Centennial and Aurora, among other areas. A separate town hall for the 4th Congressional District — which includes Castle Rock, Lone Tree, Parker, Elbert County and much of the state’s eastern plains — was scheduled

earlier that day in Castle Rock.

At ThunderRidge’s front entrance were volunteers handing out bumper stickers and buttons heralding the “Never Again” slogan and criticizing 6th District U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, R-Aurora, for accepting contributions from the National Rifle Association.

Leading much of the night was Tay Anderson, the 19-year-old board president of Never Again Colorado.

Anderson said the organization invited Coffman and U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner, RYuma, to the event. Gardner’s office declined the invitation by email, stating a scheduling conflict, and Coffman’s office did not respond, Anderson said.

businesses in the community. He posed solutions to existing problems.

At an April 3 public forum, rather than dining with the adults, he ate pizza with Douglas County students.

“He’s a man that I felt like I could immediately trust,” Ray said.

comes after a search process that began last December, when the board contracted with an executive search firm to find candidates that met qualifications gathered from online surveys, community input meetings and board priorities. The board received more than 1,100 inquiries from nearly every state in the U.S., according to Ray. The school board has since hosted more than 15 community input meetings at various locations around Douglas County. The week of April 2, candidates participated in panels with more than 70 staff members, students and community members and were interviewed by board members. A public forum was held at a local high school, where community members were able to submit questions and give input on the finalists. The interviews and forum were live streamed on the internet for the public.

Three finalists named Tucker was one of three finalists announced by the school board. The others were Daniel Clemens, superintendent of North Kansas City Schools in Kansas City, Missouri, and Karen Brofft, superintendent of Lewis-Palmer School District in Monument.

Clemens withdrew his name prior to the April 5 meeting, the school board confirmed.

The previous day, Fox31 reported that Clemens was involved in a federal lawsuit that accused North Kansas City School District administrators of negligence by not fully vetting a teacher who has pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a student.

Some community members were disappointed to learn that interim Superintendent Erin Kane, who announced in January she would apply for the position, was not selected as a finalist. She was hired in 2016 at an annual salary of $240,000 after former superintendent Elizabeth Fagen resigned and took a position in the Humble Independent School District in Texas.

The school board’s final decision

‘Moral obligation’ Tucker touched on subjects such as school funding, transparency, climate and culture, teacher pay and mental health. He calls special education a “moral obligation.” He wants to see more partnerships with the business community. He has lobbied on the state and national levels to reduce the amount of standardized testing. He emphasized the importance of building relationships among students and staff.

The organizers wished Coffman and Gardner had accepted the invitations, Anderson said.

“Just for our congressional representatives to hear us say, `We want to be safe in our schools,’ ” Anderson said.

Levi Tillemann and Jason Crow, both Democrats running to unseat Coffman this November, attended to speak about their vision for gun regulations in America. Their platforms include bans on assault rifles, 10-day waiting periods when someone purchases firearms and stronger background checks.

SEE TOWN HALL, P10

“Every student should have at least one caring and compassionate adult in school to which he or she can turn to to discuss issues going on,” Tucker said in a April 2 interview with board members.

He took a moment to brag about his current district, Princeton City Schools. Of his students, 70 percent are minority and 70 percent are on free or reduced lunches. With a focus on student achievement, the graduation rate is 95 percent for all students, 96 percent for African American students and 85 percent for students with disabilities, he said.

“It was a goal. It was articulated by the board, articulated in our strategic plan,” Tucker said. “And those things need to be put up front. They have to be part of what we do.”

He outlined four goals for his first 30-60 days as superintendent: building relationships in the community; building a strong relationship with the school board; reviewing data on student performance and the financial status of the district; and creating a culture of excellence and continuous improvement.

“There is a great deal of pride throughout the district. Clearly there is a focus on doing what is best for students,” Tucker said in the DCSD news release. “I give the community my promise — you are going to get 110 percent effort out of me each and every day.”

COMMISSIONER FROM PAGE 5

John Hickenlooper.

The vacancy committee comprises about 360 board members, elected officials, district captains and precinct leaders within the party. There were 271 eligible voting members present April 9, about 80 percent of the committee and well above the 166 needed for a quorum.

The commissioner position comes with an annual salary of $120,485.

The Republican candidates for the post, Holbert and Abe Laydon, were the two nominees of the night.

They needed 50 percent of the votes plus one in order to become Weaver’s interim successor.

Holbert, of Parker, is serving her second term as treasurer and previously worked in the real estate finance industry. The treasurer post is now vacant. The process to fill the position was not immediately clear.

Laydon is a two-term Douglas County planning commissioner, has held positions within the party and works as a land-use attorney.

Holbert held a slight lead over Laydon at the Douglas County Republican Party Assembly, where she received 200 delegate votes compared to Laydon’s 182.

Both are on the June primary ballot, as well as

Democratic candidate Mary Lynch.

Holbert and Laydon each touted their strengths and vision for Douglas County to the vacancy committee April 9.

Laydon promised a fresh face and new perspective on local government, vowing to use his experience as a land-use attorney to thoroughly vet development proposals that come to commissioners.

Holbert relied on her background as treasurer and someone already in county government.

As a commissioner, she said, she’d keep spending restrained, never grow government and work to ensure smart growth as the county continues to develop.

“I am the only candidate with extensive leadership and management experience,” she told the committee.

The final vacancy committee vote was 148-123 in Holbert’s favor. She was immediately sworn in by a judge following the announcement. Laydon congratulated his opponent’s victory but said his campaign would be working hard to ensure they took home the win at the primary.

Meanwhile, Holbert was ready for work. The commissioners’ upcoming business meeting was the next afternoon.

“I’ve already studied the packets,” she said, adding she looked forward to working with Commissioners Roger Partridge and Lora Thomas. “I think that we’ll make a great team.”

TOWN HALL FROM PAGE 7

In Coffman and Gardner’s place were cardboard cutouts of each man.

Sandy Reavey, 63, of Denver, said she invited many of her friends to the event. Reavey came to support students behind the movement and to advocate for stricter gun regulations, she said.

“I have a grandson in junior high and my son was in high school when Columbine happened,” she said. “I don’t think our legislators are doing enough to stop it.”

TRAINING FROM PAGE 4

What those classes lacked was a realworld application, Rice said, a sentiment echoed by numerous officers who have undergone the training.

At the grand opening, a staged multi-car pileup complete with a vehicle on its side showcased the environment crews will train in starting this spring.

“This has been a big component that we’ve been missing,” Rice said, “this on-the-road, practical, live training.

Classroom training is an important part of it but if you’re not having that live training you are really limited.”

TIM teaches first responders from multiple disciplines — law enforcement, fire, medical and CDOT person-

April 12, 2018A Reavey’s friend Pam Culig, 71, of Aurora agreed, calling Coffman unresponsive to his constituents in Arapahoe County who support more gun control.

Both Culig and Reavey want assault weapons banned, they said.

Tess Rosen, a 14-year-old eighth grader at Sky Vista Middle School in Aurora, sat front and center in the gymnasium during the event. It was one of her first times being politically active, she said, but her fear of gun violence and school shootings drove her to get involved.

“I don’t want to have to feel afraid every time I walk into school,” she said. “I think I’m definitely anxious.”

Rosen said feeling unheard by legislators is “a great cause of frustration and anger,” but movements like March for Our Lives is helping.

“Our voices are really getting out there,” she said.

As Hayes moderated during the Town Hall for Our Lives event, she paused from asking questions to address the crowd. It took her a while to realize all of the ways the Arapahoe High School shooting affected her, she told them, but like Rosen, she felt the March for Our Lives movement was helping.

“For me, it’s cathartic and it’s healing,” Hayes told the crowd, “to be able to put action behind this issue.”

Tay Anderson said Never Again Colorado held a town hall April 7 in Highlands Ranch for residents to voice concerns about gun violence.

nel — how to work cohesively to clear a crash.

“To really achieve the level of safety that we want for the public,” Rice said, “we really have to have a team that’s out there operating like a NASCAR pit crew.”

Drills will include the correct positioning of emergency vehicles, how to push or tow crashed vehicles without damaging the roadway and tactics for emergency responders to avoid exposing themselves to traffic hazards while working a scene.

“We want to be able to play rough on our training track,” Rice said. “We want to be able to drag a semi off if we need to, or flip vehicles.”

The training is critical for the public’s safety as well, Rice said, not just for first responders. For every minute a lane remains closed, the chance of a second crash goes up 2.8 percent,

and for every minute first responders work on scene, four minutes of traffic delays accrue.

Rice said the national goal is to reach 1 million first responders trained in the program.

In 2013, about 7 percent of Colorado’s first responders were TIM trained, Rice said. Today that statistic is closer to 37 percent. Sgt. Chris Washburn with the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office said 100 percent of the agency’s patrol officers are TIM trained.

Following the ribbon cutting, Jursevics’ husband, D.J. Jursevics, called the dedication “a good thing.”

“It’s an awesome facility,” he said.

Velma Donahue, and her two daughters, Maya, 8, and Leila, 11, stood nearby accepting condolences from those in attendance. Maya proudly held a copy of the road sign dedicating the TIM site to Jursevics and her fa-

ther. Leila held a portion of the ribbon from the ribbon cutting.

In Velma’s home office is a wall with flags and other gifts commemorating her late husband. They thought that might be the best place for the newest memorabilia.

The hardest question they receive is always, “How is the family doing,” Velma said.

With a big smile, she described her late husband as kind, honest, brave and a kid at heart. They miss him every day.

Events like the TIM grand opening can be difficult because they remind her of him, she said, but she felt the training center was a promising sign Colorado law enforcement agencies are supported.

“It’s amazing,” she said. “the fact that any agency can come here and get the training they need.”

hen I was 18-19, I thought I wanted a career in handdrawn illustration, and my goal was QUIET album covers.

DESPERATION Glad I didn’t.

Hand-drawn illustrations are mostly gone, and so are (long playing) album covers.

You can still find vinyl stores like the one in “High Fidelity,” but they are few and far between (like Craig Marshall pay phones).

Smith Some of us no longer have any kind — vinyl, cassette, CD — of individually packaged music.

Travel agents? You can still find them too. But they are disappearing too.

Daily print newspapers?

Denver’s only daily just cut 30 percent of its staff. It breaks my heart, because I know what’s next, and I have seen it coming for a long time.

I have subscribed to daily newspapers since I was an undergraduate.

The math is 50 years. Subscribing to The Los Angeles Times in my late teens was a subscription to the big table in the room. I learned the names of reporters and columnists, and I became familiar with liberals and conservatives — and idiots.

Too harsh?

Idiots are convinced that any newspaper’s factual stories are either liberal or conservative, even when

they are simply factual stories.

One Post reader wrote, “You totally alienate half of the state and wonder why you need to eliminate a third of your staff ?”

Truth is, The Post didn’t wonder why it had to be done.

Reader preferences and economic factors were involved.

How news is being accessed has been changing for some time. Likewise, shopping preferences. I haven’t been to a mall in 10 years, maybe longer.

The internet isn’t entirely to blame for all of this. But it’s an accomplice.

You can find out what just happened anywhere in the world right now on the internet, not the next day in a print edition.

It goes further: Local televised news

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Board’s selection about money Now that the choice for school district superintendent has been announced, it is clear what kind of skill set the school board wants, which is someone who has successful experience getting them more money by getting bond issues passed.Through an entirely opaque process, they chose the candidates and are unwilling to say what the qualifications were beyond a vague “it supports our direction.”

Ray hides behind the search process being “confidential.” How come?

Why can’t they say clearly and out loud what they wanted in a superintendent? Names need not be revealed, so whose privacy would that violate?

If such a process had been used by the previous school board it would have elicited howls of contempt about the lack of transparency. That is not the case this time, as the Strong Schools Coalition founder Laura Mutton is willing to blindly accept that the school board knows what is best for Douglas County even though they won’t say what that is.

If they won’t say, how would you know that? Ray and Lemieux may as well be lobbyists for the teacher’s union. Maybe that’s why.

picture to be shown in the paper. I would like to add six more confirmed votes for a ban on assault rifles from my family’s 10-vote pool.

As a hunter of more than 70 years, I would prefer my vote to be cast banning 30-round detachable gun magazines, but I will defer to common sense on behalf of our two girl students, age 13 and 15, who have the most to lose by attending school every day: their lives.

Roy Legg Highlands Ranch Put human lives first I am a supporter of the Second Amendment and I am a mother of two elementary age children. Every day, I drop my children off at school and I have a moment of worry, will I see them again, will their school be next? Will they be shot and killed today? They too have this worry and have nightmares about being shot at school by an active shooter. This is heartbreaking!

It is of the utmost importance that our children have a long, safe, happy life. Therefore, it is so important to have commonsense gun laws and restrictions. Gun safety training must be a requirement for all gun owners.

Universal background checks. Wait, cooling off periods. Safe storage requirements. Ban bump stocks, ban military style rifles. Limit magazine rounds.

is losing viewership. It lost mine years ago.

The panel format is too convivial.

Big stories are side by side with stories about cats wearing clothes. They tease you, so you don’t use the remote during a commercial. I used a remote during commercials.

Another Post reader blamed “out-ofstate hedge-fund owners who have no regard for local news.”

There’s blame — or credit — to go around, but what it amounts to is a loss. The loss of a hand-held sheaf of words, images, ideas, and opinions.

But that’s not enough to keep something around anymore. Our preferences, aligned with new technologies, replace dated formats all day long.

Preparing for change, managing change and accepting change

A

s a frequent traveler I spend a lot of time on airplanes, in hotels, and in rental cars or Uber/Lyft rides. And I spend a lot of time in different cities around the world. With all of this travel, as with anything in life, comes change.

A change of vehiWINNING cles, change of hotel rooms, a change of WORDS scenery, and overall changes to the systems we follow when we travel, like security and airline policy and procedure.

As someone who speaks about change quite a bit, I found the irony while I laughed at myself on Michael Norton my most recent trip.

It was another hotel stay, at least my 30th night in a hotel this year, and just another room much like the rooms I had slept in for the past several years.

And as I got up and got ready to shower, I was faced with one more unique shower fixture. Almost no way to tell which way was hot and which way was cold, and no visible way to turn it from tub to shower mode.

My frustration gave way to laughter as I prayed that one day there would be a universal shower in all hotels

everywhere around the world. In that moment I was ready to make it my life’s work. And there I stood, examined the apparatus one more time, and figured it out, at last a hot morning shower.

Of course showers change, everything changes eventually. The team I was getting ready to go see was undergoing significant organizational change. They were also getting ready to change products and were launching a new technology. The executives and shareholders were all very excited about the changes, getting ready to launch their company into the next generation and level of success. The problem was the team expected to execute on the changes was not quite ready.

Not being ready caused fear and panic. Fear and panic fueled the rumor mill. The rumor mill perpetuated wrong information, and wrong information sent an entire workforce into paralysis. All the change that was getting to take place was in fact very good for the company and its customers. It was also going to be very good for the entire organization. The breakdown in communication and preparation came when the company failed to make sure that all personnel were ready for the change.

Finding common ground on issues of mental health

P

ut six Republicans and three Democrats on the same Denver stage, and you might not expect them to agree on anything. When it comes to improving mental health care, however, you can find common GUEST ground.

Nine candidates COLUMN shared a stage last week at Mental Health Colorado’s first-ever gubernatorial forum. The consensus: We ought to make it harder for people who pose a danger to themselves or others to get guns, and easier Andrew Romanoff for them to get treatment.

Those are two of the top priorities we’re urging the legislature to address this year. The first is called an extreme risk protection order; it would allow law enforcement officers to remove weapons from the homes of individuals at risk of suicide or violence.

Five states have already enacted such laws, and the approach seems to be working. No law can prevent every tragedy, but studies show that restricting access to firearms in these circumstances — even temporarily — reduces the likelihood of harm.

The laws require a court order and

LETTERS FROM PAGE 12

tent push to take away existing legislation is dangerous. Permit-less conceal carry makes every person less safe by no longer ensuring proper training to conceal carry a weapon. Possibly allowing untrained, thus dangerous gunowners to conceal carry a gun. To have a gun in public, one should have to go through gun safety training.

They should have to go through the permit process just as current conceal carry permit holders have done.

Passing a mental health exam should be required as well. This will help keep guns out of the hands of those who intend kill others and even those who seek to kill themselves.

Children’s lives come first. All human life comes first, not our guns!

Nicole Dunphy Castle Rock An important article Thank you for Christy Steadman’s excellent article about girls (and women) in STEM courses and careers in last week’s issue.

The American Association of University Women’s 2010 research project was cited and I’d like to provide some additional information from its 2015 study, “Solving the Equation.” That updated research found four main factors that still address underrepresentation of women in science, technology, engineering and math.

1. Combating stereotypes and bi-

appropriate regard for due process rights. With those provisions in place, the extreme risk protection order has earned the support of the National Rifle Association, among other organizations.

Every gubernatorial candidate at our forum signed on, and we’re asking the General Assembly to follow suit.

Mental Health Colorado is working with members of both parties to introduce and pass legislation this month.

To be clear, most people with mental illness are not violent; they are far more likely to be victims of crime than perpetrators. But for those at risk of suicide, a gun represents the most lethal means.

Suicides account for more than two-thirds of gun deaths in America, and an even higher share in Colorado.

More than 1,000 Coloradans die by suicide each year — a death toll this proposal can decrease.

Just as critical: access to treatment.

Each year, an estimated 35,000 Coloradans experience a mental health crisis that makes them gravely disabled or places them in imminent danger. That’s a conservative figure, based on the number of people who are subjected to involuntary holds.

Under current law, those holds can last for up to 72 hours. Once that time is up, roughly 10 percent of these individuals are certified for involuntary treatment. ases — and these are culturally based.

Implicit as well as explicit biases inform developing males and females.

2. Emphasizing social relevance — incorporating communal aspects are needed to increase appeal for community oriented people 3. Cultivating a sense of belonging — a sense of “being a scientist” 4. Changing the environment — women have fewer resources for balancing work and non-work 5. As stated in Ms. Steadman’s article, the number of women in STEM occupations has remained low from 1960-2013.

As Coloradans we can be proud that our schools (starting at the elementary level) provide opportunities for girls to pursue STEM courses and careers and there are so many community outreach programs; Girls in STEM, Girls and Science at DMNS, Girl Scouts Engineering Day, and various summer camps and workshops.

Exposure, stimulating interest and encouraging activities build confidence particularly in girls.

The American Association of University Women (AAUW) has been advocating gender equity for women and girls since 1881. There are two branches of AAUW in our community (Littleton-South Metro and Douglas County) and we both raise money to support local girls and women seeking STEM related courses and careers.

Thank you again for this informative article on a very important issue.

Jill Smith Highlands Ranch President, AAUW Littleton-South Metro Branch

But most don’t meet that standard, and many never get treatment. For some, the cycle of crisis simply repeats itself.

That’s why we’re asking the Legislature to step in. Instead of waiting for more Coloradans to fall through the cracks, we ought to help them get care.

Our proposal would establish care coordination teams, providing assistance in housing, employment and treatment. The state already supplies such assistance to individuals who leave Colorado’s mental health institutes, through the transition specialist program.

But the vast majority of Coloradans, even those with severe mental illness, are not institutionalized — and don’t need to be.

Colorado’s own experience, as well as that of other states, shows that proper treatment and support improve outcomes and lower the demand on

hospitals, emergency rooms and the criminal justice system.

Turning our jails and prisons into warehouses for people with mental health or substance use disorders is the most expensive and least therapeutic decision we can make.

The bottom line: It’s far cheaper, more effective, and ultimately more humane to treat mental illness than to ignore it or to criminalize it.

That’s a conclusion with which every candidate — and, we hope, a majority of our elected officials — can agree.

Andrew Romanoff is the president and CEO of Mental Health Colorado (www.mentalhealthcolorado.org), the state’s leading advocate for the prevention and treatment of mental health and substance use disorders. He served as the speaker of the Colorado House of Representatives.

NORTON FROM PAGE 12

Being ready for the change doesn’t mean that we need 100 percent buy-in before we change; being ready for the change means that we have thought everything out, prepared internal and external communications, alerted everyone to the changes that were coming and what the expectations were going to be, and gave them a format to ask questions about the change.

Left to our own imaginations, we can quickly determine that change is a bad thing, and sometimes see it as a very bad thing.

Now, managing change is still yet another part of the story. Once preparation and communication are met with expectation and explanation, we can start to better manage

the change as it is happening.

It’s not time to think about measuring results of the change; the first thing we have to do is manage the behaviors that will drive the change.

When people clearly understand where the company and the product are going, they can then clearly see where their personal contribution can make a difference.

Accepting change happens.

For some, like those of us staring at a brand-new shower fixture, it takes a little more time than others.

But sooner or later, whether we resist the change or not, the change will happen. As it has been said, the one constant regarding change is that change happens, and change will happen again.

The secret is following the first two paths mentioned above, change readiness and change management. When we can become really good and efficient at both of those, change

acceptance will be accelerated and the change will be successful.

Here is the best part of the shower story. As I stood there bewildered for a moment or two, I didn’t stop to think and appreciate all of the other changes to that particular hotel. The mattresses were all changed, the lobby and bar were upgraded and changed, the check-in process was changed and made easier than ever before.

Of course the shower fixture would have been changed too.

I was ready for the changes I liked and could easily grasp, and I managed what was being changed as long as I saw the benefit to me, but I was slower in accepting the change that was just a little more difficult.

I still think a worldwide universal shower set up for all hotels is a brilliant idea, like maybe one of those really awesome showers found in the Netherlands.

So how about you? Whether you are looking at a change at work or home, are you ready for it? Do you know how you will manage it? And are you prepared for those impacted by the change to accept it? I would love to hear your personal story or your company story of change at gotonorton@gmail. com. And when we recognize the role that readiness, management, and acceptance plays in effective change, it really will be a better than good week.

Jennifer just made a trip to Ohio to see her family. I asked her if she wanted to borrow a book. She said, “No, thanks. I have a book on Kindle.”

She didn’t see my reaction because I was in another room. I lowered my head.

Day of note for record stores

I

Annual event brings vinyl fans in for rare releases

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

O

ne of the best things about the annual Record Store Day event, where local record stores all over the metro area open their doors to an intense rush of passionate music fans, is meeting people who share a passion for music.

“Record Store Day really feels like a community event,” said Chelsea Bashford, one of the employees at Arvada’s Black and Read book and music store. “You get a chance to meet other people who live in the area and love music just as much as you do.”

Record Store Day falls on Saturday, April 21, and as has become the trend in the nine years since the first day, this year will be bigger and busier than any that have come before.

“Record Store Day is by far our biggest day of the year,” said Paul Epstein, owner of Twist and Shout Records in Denver. “Every year Record Store Day becomes the biggest day in our history. We try to make it a fun event for everyone who comes in on the day.”

On Record Store Day, special vinyl, tape, CD releases and various promotional products are made available exclusively for the day.

These items include rare releases, never-before-heard songs and albums, and uniquely colored vinyl — in other words, a music collector’s dream.

“There are items every year that sell out super quickly, either because the musician has a lot of fans, or because the piece is really rare,” said Aaron Bogue, media buyer at Angelo’s CDs and More, which has locations on Broadway, East Colfax and in Aurora. “Those first 30 to 40 minutes are my favorite part, because you get to watch people go after a physical thing that means a lot to them.”

The annual day was created as a way to celebrate the world of record stores — not only owners, their employees and the musicians, but also customers who keep these local businesses alive at a time where so much of music is consumed via the internet.

Record Store Day encourages shoppers to celebrate their local stores, which are a vital part of

The power of story at 15th Vail Film Festival

t sounds like a cliché, but everyone has a story to tell. For most of us, that story is something we keep to ourselves, maybe because it’s too personal, too difficult to share, or something you think no one would be interested in.

There’s nothing wrong with keeping these stories to ourselves, but when someone decides to step forward and share their story, we should pay attention In my three days at COMING the 15th annual Vail ATTRACTIONS Film Festival, April 5-8, I met so many people who shared stories that were of vital importance and learned so much about subjects I would’ve never considered before.

In Kerry David’s documentary, “Bill Coors: The Will to Live” Clarke Reader I was shown a portrait of a man with a name every Colorado resident FOR FULL knows and discovered COVERAGE I didn’t know anything For full coverat all about him. And I age of the 15th was moved but what I annual Vail found.

In Molly McGlynn’s feature debut, “Mary Goes Round,” the writer/director and lead actress Aya Cash painted a vivid portrait of addiction, forgiveness, and the many surprising roads to empathy. And I was inspired by what I found.

That’s the power of sharing your story.

The festival has grown by leaps and bounds since it was first started by brothers Sean and Scott Cross, but its dedication to sharing stories that people otherwise wouldn’t be exposed to has never faltered.

“Independent films are labors of love, and getting audiences and filmmakers together is such a rare experience — one we wanted to provide,” Sean explained.

“It takes such a long time to make a film, and we wanted to do everything we could to support independent filmmakers.”

That commitment to the independent voices is evident throughout the weekend. Some of the most packed events are the ones where short films were being screened. At a screening on April 7, viewers were standing against the wall and sitting the aisles to see films like “The Invaders,” where theater actor Isra ElsaSEE READER, P19

In any case, April is Poetry Month nationally, Arapahoe Community College holds its Writers Conference this weekend and issues the most recent “Progenitor” literary magazine soon, two state organizations will soon be announcing winning authors in annual contests, and Arvada Center will hold its first one-day Book Fest on May 19.

Also, the Colorado Authors’ League will hold a dinner May 4 at the Arvada Center to announce the 76th CAL Writing Awards. Colorado Humanities/Colorado Center for the Book announced finalists in its annual Book Awards, with readings through the month at the Book Bar, 4280 Tennyson St., Denver, with finalists announced at 4:30 p.m. June 2, at Sie Film Center, 2510 E.

We know we can’t offer complete listings, but hope to say congratula-

tions to each Colorado writer who has had the courage and persistence to publish a new book and guide it along a path to recognition — it’s a long, challenging process!

To sample some finalists’ work, The Book Bar will host readings for finalists chosen for awards in various categories — accompanied by a sip of wine if one wishes — in the Colorado Book Award Finalist Readings (we have missed the mystery/fantasy series, alas).

Mobile urgent care offers convenience for patients DispatchHealth provides services in the comfort of a patient’s home

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A few years ago, Leigh Picchetti’s 6-year-old son scraped his thumb while playing on a trampoline. The Highlands Ranch mom bandaged her son’s cut, but within a few days, it had turned green. She sent a photo to a friend who is a nurse practitioner and asked whether she should go to an urgent care or emergency room.

“She said don’t do either, there is this new service called DispatchHealth that will come to your house,” said Picchetti.

Within an hour, a blue car with the company’s logo arrived at her home, Picchetti said. A nurse practitioner and EMT inquired about her son’s situation and took notes on an iPad before laying out a large, white gauzelike pad on a bench in the middle of her living room. They drained her son’s infected blister, then sterilized and bandaged the area. She paid an urgent care copay of about $75, and her insurance, Cigna, covered the rest.

Gone are the days when a patient had to leave his or her house to receive medical care. DispatchHealth, a mobile urgent care, is a reflection of the

A physician and EMT from DispatchHealth help Leigh Picchetti’s 6-year-old son, who had an infected scrape on his thumb from a tumble on the trampoline. Completed in the home, the treatment took about four or five minutes.

COURTESY LEIGH PICCHETTI direction society is moving — consumers want convenience.

“Convenience is the new quality,” said market director Melanie Plaksin.

“It’s life hacks, ultimately.”

Founded in 2013, DispatchHealth has eight cars that service cities as north as Longmont and south as Colorado Springs. Each vehicle is equipped with a robust technology network and a

black briefcase filled with clinical materials used to treat common ailments: the flu, urinary tract infections, cuts, minor bone breaks, nausea, vomiting.

Patients sign up on the company’s app or website, where they are asked to disclose their primary health-care information to provide a continuum of care.

Once an appointment is requested, DispatchHealth calls the patient to determine if the service is the best fit.

Within an hour, a physician and EMT are at the home, where they stay for an average of 45 minutes.

For Picchetti, her son’s treatment took four or five minutes. The following day, she received a call from her son’s pediatrician — who had been contacted by DispatchHealth — to schedule a follow-up appointment, Picchetti said.

“I was like, that is so full service,” said Picchetti. “It was just incredibly convenient.”

DispatchHealth tries to be transparent about cost prior to visits, team members say. The healthcare company takes several public and private insurances, which are listed at www. dispatchhealth.com/insurance-coverage. The average cost of care is $150 to $300 per visit, depending on insurance coverage.

“We are eight to 10 times cheaper than an ER visit,” said Dr. Phil Mitchell, vice president of medical affairs.

“There is no comparison with cost and convenience.”

ABOUT DISPATCHHEALTH To request care, visit www.dispatchhealth. com, download the free app or call 720990-5136. A physician and EMT will arrive in approximately one hour and stay for an average of 45 minutes. For a list of symptoms treated by DispatchHealth, visit www. dispatchhealth.com/what-we-treat. To learn what insurance DispatchHealth takes, visit www.dispatchhealth.com/insurancecoverage.

Being in a home setting allows physicians to get a better feel for a patient’s lifestyle, Mitchell said. He has noticed that patients are more apt to open up about medical conditions or concerns when they are in a comfortable place.

“Health is how you feel,” said Mitchell. “It can be a very emotional thing.”

For parents like Picchetti, who also has a young daughter, the service trumps a visit to the ER. She’s recommended DispatchHealth to everyone she knows, she said.

“It would never be my first choice to take my healthy kid or my sick kid to an environment that is full of germs and trauma,” said Picchetti. “(DispatchHealth) felt like customer service and I’ve never thought of health care as customer service. They were there to make sure everything was easy and as simple as possible for me, and as stress-free as possible for my son.”

lihie plays a young woman who is followed on her way home.

“I try to bring my personal experiences into my characters, and for her, I wanted to focus on a positive thing to go after, instead of simply reacting to fear,” Elsalihie explained. “It’s really exciting being here for the world premiere, and to see the audiences’ reaction to the film for the first time.”

As Cross said, there’s an opportunity connect with filmmakers at the Vail Film Festival, an opportunity that most people don’t get to have, and the filmmakers are just as interesting, moving and funny as their creations.

Following the U.S. premiere of “Bill Coors: The Will to Live,” director and producer David, Coors biographer Margo Hamilton, and Coors’ oldest son Scott, shared stories about the making of the documentary, and the importance of giving a voice to those struggling with depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts.

“We need to be a voice for children all over the county and world who are struggling with these issues,” Hamilton said. “We need to stop being

repulsed and repelled by their behavior and help them.”

The film is structured around his famous 1981 speech to the American Academy of Achievement, where he gave some astounding advice to high school students concerning mental health and a focus on self-love instead of material gain.

These were hard-learned lessons for Coors, as David delves into a past full of tragedy, depression and ultimately healing. Many of Coors’ challenges were completely unknown to me, and his breakthroughs in the area of employee healthcare and recycling were also revelations.

In the film, and in the question and answer session, it was Scott’s personal stories about life with his father that was the most moving. He spoke about coming out to his father on a drive to Aspen for Thanksgiving, and the empathy and understanding his father gave him.

“I cry every time because I get to see him open up,” he said. “I still go see him every week and am so thankful to have that time with him.”

The filmmaking team is working on getting their work shown in schools, and local districts like Jefferson County will hopefully be among the first to see this story about a local family working to improve the world.

make sure we have at least one copy of all the releases in all three of our stores,” Bogue said.

“It’s something people look forward to, and we want to do our best to ensure we have the releases.”

Some people line up hours before store openings, so if one is really interested in getting a particular release, arriving as early as possible is recommended. After 10 years, most record stores are experts at moving people through the process, but a little patience goes a long way.

“We try to spread stock out throughout the store so people aren’t all grouped in one place,” Bashford said. “There’s no holds or anything like that in advance, so it really is first come, first served.”

Despite some jostling when everyone is trying to get in, Epstein said that most people get what they’re in for. And even if not, there are so many quality releases that shoppers might discover something they didn’t even know they wanted.

“I got into this business because I’m a vinyl guy and a collector, so in that role, there are always some releases I’d like to get my hands on,” he said. “As a member of this community, Record Store Day is special because people go out of their way to support you and thank you for being around.”

The festival was capped with an award ceremony on April 7, and among the winners were “Surviving Home,” a documentary from Matthew and Jillian Moul, that followed four generations of veterans over an eight-year period as they try to get back to civilian life following their times in the service, and “Mary Goes Round.”

“Mary” was my favorite film of the festival, with knock-out performances from Sara Waisglass, Melanie Nicholls-King, and especially Cash, who gives Mary’s flaws, sense of humor and underlying understanding vital life. She can break your heart with a look, and this is expert, lived-in acting, and paired with McGlynn’s assured filmmaking, it’s a film that you seek out.

Cash received the festival’s Excellence in acting award, and at several question and answer sessions throughout the weekend displayed the insight and warm sense off humor that make her so impossible to ignore when she’s on screen.

“Just like everyone, I wanted to

make a living as an actor, and that’s very hard. I wanted to buy toothpaste and coffee, and not have to pick one or the other,” she said with a laugh. “But I would tell aspiring actors to redefine success. There’s a way to make a living as an artist without selling your soul.”

It was impossible for myself and audiences to meet and interact with these artists and filmmakers and not come away motivated to step up and look out how to share our own stories.

And because of that, there’s no way the festival was anything other than a success for everyone.

“After our screening, I had a woman come up to me who said she’d been sober for 30 years, and that we got that story right,” McGlynn said. “If you can connect with someone you don’t know, in a different country and state, that’s everything.”

TIPS FOR FIRST-TIME RECORD STORE DAY SHOPPERS • Call the record store in advance to see what their hours are — many stores will be opening earlier than normal for the day.

• Visit www.recordstoreday.com/ SpecialReleases to find a full list of releases for the day. The list includes information about quantities pressed, which can help narrow down which items you want most.

• Bring cash, just in case credit card machines are down.

• Be friendly with the others in line.

Sometimes, a fellow shopper can keep an eye out for a release you really want. Two pairs of eyes are better than one.

• Try several record stores — stock and quantity vary, and if you missed an item at one store, it might be at another.

• Have fun — everyone is there because they love music.

BY TABATHA STEWART TSTEWART@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

“Six degrees of separation” is the theory that every person on the planet is six or fewer steps away from each other. In more common terms, it’s the concept of “a friend of a friend of a friend.”

The theory was first proposed in 1929 by Hungarian writer Frigyes Karinthy, and has proven to be true for a Centennial couple, who has spent years looking for a place to build a ranch where people with developmental disabilities, like their son Ross, can live productive lives.

“We started the Tall Tales Ranch nonprofit more than three years ago, and originally thought we would have to buy a piece of property in the middle of nowhere,” said Susan Mooney, co-founder of Tall Tales Ranch. “This was really one of those things where a friend of a friend who knew of Schweiger Ranch put a few of us together to talk.”

The result — Schweiger Ranch, a historic 38-acre ranch located just east of I-25 and Ridgegate Parkway, in Lone

Schweiger Ranch has granted Tall Tales Ranch a long-term land lease, to build a working ranch for people with developmental disabilities.

PHOTO COURTESY OF SCHWEIGER RANCH Tree, has offered Mooney a long-term ground lease on the property, which will become the home of Tall Tales Ranch.

Mooney said they came up with the idea for Tall Tales Ranch after their son Ross, who is now 23, was diag-

nosed with an aggressive brain disease that deteriorates the white matter in the brain and eventually leads to death. Ross led a typical life, with lots of friends, and loved to play sports and dreamed of being a police officer when he grew up. At the age of 14, after years of Mooney watching their son’s personality morph into one they didn’t recognize, Ross was diagnosed with x-linked adrenoleukodystrophy.

He received a bone marrow transplant which halted the progression of the disease, but left him with an acquired brain injury.

The final award ceremony will include brief readings by the winners and a reception. See coloradohumanities.org.

Colorado Authors’ League, founded in 1931, has a membership of more than 300. It has nominees from 12 categories who published books in 2017, and they were judged by Southwest Writers of New Mexico. Winners will be announced on May 4 at the Arvada Center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., Arvada.

The CAL is open to those who have published a book in the past three years or have a lifetime body of work.

The winner is each of 12 categories will win $100 and a glass likeness of a book, etched with their name, category and year. The keynote speaker will be Maura Weiler, author and screenwriter The Cal will also award the 2018 Colorado Authors’ League Lifetime Achievement Award to Dr. Tom Noel,

As the Mooneys searched for longterm options for Ross, they were disappointed to find that typical group homes weren’t a good fit for their son, who preferred to be outdoors and loves all things animal- and countryrelated.

“As Ross’s parents, we want for him what all parents want,” said Mooney.

“A safe, supportive and wonderful place to live.

A place where he is able to experience community, responsibility, challenge, fulfillment, and acceptance for the unique man that he is.”

Mooney said they hope to break ground as early as 2021, and they envision a residential home on site that would house a mix of people with intellectual developmental disabilities and neuro-typical people. Residents would run a community center barn and a coffee shop, and care for animals on the ranch.

“We also want to use it as a training center to teach job skills and employment skills to other people in the community,” said Mooney.

Elizabeth Matthews, executive director of Schweiger Ranch, which is also a nonprofit, said the addition on the property, which will cover just over two acres, will benefit the community and Schweiger Ranch, as well as those with disabilities.

“Between the two nonprofits there’s a great synergy. We have similarities that really kind of work together,” said Matthews. “The ambassadors from Tall Tales Ranch can work on the ranch and work with the animals.

We can do more with the ranch when we have more people there, and it will create a great sense of community and better opportunities for Lone Tree residents and the surrounding communities.”

ave Jackson, the former National Hockey League referee who lives in Highlands Ranch, grew up a fan of the Montreal Canadiens and admits he worshiped players like Guy Lafleur plus a horde of other great players he had the opportunity to watch play.

The Quebec native wanted to be an NHL OVERTIME player but realized as a 180-pound defensemen that his chances of become a headline player were slim, so instead he developed into one of the league’s top referees.

He worked his last game last month in Los Angeles when the Kings Jim Benton played the Arizona Coyotes and he isn’t sure yet what retirement has in store for him, but he plans to play hockey twice a week at South Suburban Ice Arena, mountain bike, snowboard and play a little golf in the meantime.

During the last month of his farewell tour around the league, coaches and captains would shake his hand and indicated they appreciated his service.

“It made me feel like I was respected,” said Jackson.

Jackson, 54, is the sixth NHL referee to work more than 1,500 games. He called 1,629 regular-season and playoff games in his 25-year NHL career, but missed last season because of a hip injury.

He was 14 years old when he began officiating minor hockey in suburban Montreal. He called games in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. His NHL debut was on Dec. 22, 1990 in Quebec City when the New Jersey Devils played the Quebec Nordiques. Lafleur scored the only goal for the Nordiques in that game. He gained full-time NHL referee status in the summer of 1993.

Asked to describe his career, Jackson quickly said “longevity.”

He officiated in vintage arenas and new facilities, worked two All-Star games, refereed games in the Sochi Olympics, called the outdoor game between the Avalanche and Red Wings at Coors Field, created many friends inside and out of hockey and got to visit and explore cities in the United States and Canada.

Jackson claims personal pride is what motivated him.

“The worst thing is when you have a game and you know you didn’t do your best job,” he explained. “You come home for four or five days and stew about it.

When you are on the road, you wake up at night thinking about it.

“When I would do a hockey game and nobody yelled at me and I looked in the mirror after the game knowing I didn’t SEE BENTON, P25

April 12, 2018

On campus: Highlands Ranch • The boys lacrosse team, led by TK Hammond with 16 goals and 20 points, has a non-league game on April 14 against Rockhurst of Kansas City.

• The baseball team will be seeking some revenge when the Falcons play ThunderRidge on April 13.

The team has lost the past five games against the Grizzlies.

• The girls soccer team shut out its past two opponents and plays Castle View on April 12. It has lost the past three game against the Sabercats.

• Defending state champion Drake Nugent won the shot put on April 7 at the Legend Titan Track Clash with a throw of 54-05.50 Mountain Vista • The baseball team, ranked first in the CHSAANow.com Class 5A rankings, is dominating Continental League statistics and leads the lead in six different team categories.

put my effort forward, that bothered me a lot more than when I had a police escort.”

The game has changed. One referee no longer calls games, and the crackdown on interference, holding and hooking has had an impact. And players are bigger, stronger and faster.

“It used to be rare when a penalty was called,” said Jackson. “The game is faster. There is so much more speed and it’s fun to watch. You watch sometimes on TV it looks like a game play.

But when you are five feet away from someone and you see a player puts the puck between someone’s feet and see him in traffic and you are saying `wow.’ Sometimes you miss playing the game when you are refereeing.”

Jackson feels the video review of goals is good for the game.

“Scoring goals is so important, so anything you can do to make sure a goal was scored is good,” he said.

“Goals are so hard to come by. The bottom line reviews are only for goals.”

Jackson seldom hears verbal abuse or taunting from fans at NHL games because of the glass and the noise during the idle time, but admits that coaches and players sometimes have something to say.

Still, being a referee in the NHL is nothing like some of the reaction in minor league and junior hockey.

league lead with 17 runs batted in and he also had four pitching victories.

• The boys lacrosse team, ranked No. 6, faces ninth-ranked Chaparral in a top-10 showdown on April 13. The Golden Eagles have gone 8-1 against the Grizzlies in games played since 2009.

Rock Canyon • Members of the track team traveled to California to compete in the Arcadia Invite and several made a strong impression.

Senior Emily Sloan won the 100-meter hurdles. She was second in the 300 hurdles in 42.25.

Riley Masten was ninth in the high jump at 5-4. Easton Allred was third in the 3,200 with a personal best of 9:08.34, and Chris Theodore was ninth in the mile with a 4:26.19 clocking.

• The baseball team faces top-ranked Mountain Vista on April 13 and only five runs have decided the past three games between the teams. Rock Canyon has won two of those three contests.

Skyview Academy • Senior Chris Wilhoite became the first athlete to break two minutes in In fact, he almost gave up being an official in 1982 after a bantam game in Lachine, Quebec.

“I had a group of parents jump me when I was 17 years old ,” recalled Jackson. “They weren’t waiting for me. They just happened to be outside.

I walked out and there were comments and it ended up in a fistfight with me and the two linesmen. The game didn’t go the way they wanted. I wanted to quit refereeing but I went back and glad I did.”

New Legacy coach Legacy, one of the north metro area’s most successful Class 5A football programs, has a new coach.

Corey Heinz has been named the new Lightning coach, replacing Wayne Voorhees, who has moved to new Riverdale Ridge in Thornton to launch to school’s program.

Heinz, a 2005 Highlands Ranch graduate, was an assistant coach for the Falcons after he coached for three years at the University of Tulsa, where he played football. He was most recently the offensive coordinator at Missouri Southern State University, a Division II program.

Legacy went 6-4 last season and the Lightning was 96-64 in 15 seasons under Voorhees.

Sprout’s time in the 1,600 was a meet record.
