The milk can will be residing at Arapahoe High School this year.

Arapahoe’s football team took a 9-0 first-half lead and held on for a 9-7 victory over rival Heritage in the annual Brookridge Trophy game Sept. 13. at Littleton Public Schools Stadium.

It was the fourth win in the past five games for the Warriors in the series against Heritage, and Arapahoe will regain possession of the silver milk can after a loss last season. In games dating to the 2004 season, the Warriors are 12-3 in contests against the Eagles.

The trophy is named for the Brookridge Dairy farm that once stood

on the ground that is now the LPS stadium.

The win raised Arapahoe’s record to 2-1 while Heritage slipped to 1-1 on the season. Arapahoe’s next game is against Rock Canyon on Sept. 19 at Echo Park Stadium in Parker. Heritage will play Thornton Sept. 20 at Littleton Public Schools Stadium.

In city planning, ‘love notes to Littleton’ recommended Consultant says emotional connection to city important in visioning process

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Peter Kageyama wants elected officials, city staff and residents to write “love notes” to Littleton.

But not in the literal sense. And his urgings weren’t just for a feelgood time: He wants that spirit to run through the city’s roadmap for the next couple decades.

“The goal should be creating a lovable city,” Kageyama said. The “kind that grabs you by the heart and refuses to let go.”

The writer and consultant who focuses on city planning and development spoke to an audience of Littleton residents and city councilmembers at Arapahoe Community College on Sept. 12.

Kageyama’s was the fourth and final event in a speaker series for Envision Littleton — a long-term process to set priorities that will guide future efforts to revise city zoning and other policy.

A city’s zoning sets rules for what

can be built where.

The Envision process sought public feedback on two documents that will shape Littleton’s development and growth for decades to come: the city’s revised comprehensive plan and its first-ever Transportation Master Plan. City officials unveiled the drafts in mid-August. The city’s current comprehensive plan was ratified in 1981 and last updated in 2000.

The plans lay out policies and actions for various aspects of civic life, including housing, infrastructure, recreation, transportation and business.

But amid all those complicated building blocks of a city, Kageyama implored Littleton to wonder: Why can’t cities be more lively, more fun, more lovable?

“Love notes are these things cities will give to their residents,” said Kageyama, who is a senior fellow with the Alliance for Innovation, a national network of city leaders dedicated to improving local government.

His examples of love notes: New York City remaking traffic-clogged Times Square as a pedestrianfriendly plaza, Boston creating “an adult playground” in the Lawn On D and Denver putting up a “Big Blue Bear” that peers into downtown’s Colorado Convention Center.

Small Business Development Center Consulting and Training

WHAT IS ENVISION LITTLETON? Littleton residents had until Sept. 16 to give feedback on a pair of sweeping documents that will help guide development and growth in the city for decades to come: the city’s revised comprehensive plan and its first-ever Transportation Master Plan.

Residents can read the drafts and provide feedback by going to littletonplans. org/envisionlittleton.

The draft documents represent the culmination of a year and a half of community feedback, data analysis and stakeholder meetings, all part of the Envision Littleton process.

City council plans to ratify the two documents in mid-October, according to Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman, and should begin working on zoning and other law revisions in early 2020.

It’s about “how we manage growth, and what does growth look like?” said Mark Relph, Littleton city manager, at the Sept.

12 talk at Arapahoe Community College.

Brinkman was pleased with the amount of community engagement in the process.

“You try to get community input, and you (usually) get three or four people who show up,” Brinkman said. “We are getting crowds of people. The comments and the input that’s coming in are in the thousands.”

The projects can be an expensive use of taxpayer money, Kageyama

said, but they pay their worth in a more intangible way.

“Do you know how many potholes we could fix for the cost of that bear?” Kageyama said. “But in addition to having a cost, the bear also has a value.”

Memorable places and events can create buzz and boost the flow of money into a city, Kageyama argued.

“Let’s talk about the cost of ugly; let’s talk about the cost of boring,” Kageyama said. He bets those who might balk “haven’t thought about it in those terms.”

And turning less-interesting spaces around can be cheap — it just takes collaborating with artists and other citizens who can think out of the box, he argued. Projects such as murals, scavenger hunts and hidden messages could be part of it, Kageyama said.

On a bigger scale, the writer suggested, Littleton could make changes by making its downtown less car-centric.

“You have a lovely downtown.

The scale of it seems very human,” said Kageyama, adding that it feels authentic. “Sadly, it’s sort of lost among all the traffic … You’ve got to get people to slow down and get out of their cars. You’ve got the hard part done: You’ve got a lot of interesting stuff going on.”

Teens looking to serve their community can apply to be part of the South Suburban Parks and Recreation Youth Commission, now in its sixth year.

The youth commission gives teens the chance to become involved in their communities and in South Suburban events and activities, according to a news release. Commission members help organize fundraisers, host service projects and participate in fun activities with their peers.

Teens also will practice their skills in critical thinking, communications and creativity while learning about local government and the parks and recreation industry. Past projects included successful fundraising tournaments at Colorado Journey Mini Golf, preparation of hundreds of sack lunches for the homeless and lowincome families, and volunteer opportunities with Children’s Kindness Network in local elementary schools.

Members of the commission also organized and participated in a trail clean-up project along the Mary Carter Greenway.

Eligible students in grades 7-11 who live in the South Suburban district and maintain a minimum 2.0 grade-

point average in school are welcome to apply. Teens must be willing to share ideas in group settings and be accepting of others and their ideas.

The goals of the commission are to discuss and suggest possible solutions about issues that young people face; to provide input about programs that are offered to teens in the community; to promote positive programs with peers; to promote healthy living, including overall physical, emotional and mental wellbeing, and to provide opportunities to develop youth as future leaders.

The youth commission serves in an advisory role to the recreation department, and members are selected through an application and interview process facilitated through the youth commission and staff liaisons. Candidates will be appointed by the South Suburban Board of Directors.

The commission meets from 6-7:30 p.m. the first Tuesday of the month from February through October.

For an application and more information, go to ssprd.org/YouthCommission. Contact Sarah Nielsen at Sarahn@ssprd.org or 303-483-7034, or Chantel Tolan at ChantelT@ssprd. org or 303-754-0552. Applications are due Oct. 1.

‘Great fall bloom period’ ahead at Hudson Gardens Meet the Rose Gardener event provides visitors with tips from the masters

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Just off one of the busiest highways in the south Denver metro area sits a quiet refuge of nature, where master gardeners pass on tips to the public.

“This year was late starting in terms of when plants started growing,” said Dave Ingram, a volunteer gardener at Hudson Gardens in Littleton. Japanese beetles — which feed on many types of plants — are fading early, Ingram said, “so we look forward to a great fall bloom period.”

The event center at 6115 S. Santa Fe Drive, a place that sees weddings and reunions, also offers a Meet the Rose Gardener event, where people can come talk to “master rosarians” like Ingram.

He and several other volunteers worked on the rose bed the morning of Sept. 11, a ritual they repeat on Wednesdays from late April to early November, Ingram said.

“The rose garden was restored and replanted around 2010,” said Ingram, adding that the caretakers are volunteers who want to make the gardens a better experience for the public.

Ingram, a 70-year-old Arvada resident, is from the Denver Rose Society, along with Peggy Williams, the society’s 2018 president. But not all volunteers at the Hudson rose garden are from that society, and the group is always looking for more volunteers, Ingram said.

“Some people have joined volunteering to contribute,” Ingram said, “and some have joined to learn.”

“It’s a labor of love,” Ingram said.

Dave Ingram, 70, kneels down to engage in “dead heading,” the process of removing old flowers to promote new growth. Ingram was on hand Sept. 11 at Hudson Gardens for its Meet the Rose Gardener event.

Safety advocates seek to stop bicycle fatality trend Concerns focus on ways to protect vulnerable road users

BY KAILYN LAMB KLAMB@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

On the north side of the street where South Marion Parkway curves into East Bayaud Avenue in Denver, stands a bicycle painted completely white. The bike is under a tree, with stacks of bouquets piled next to it and a circle of electric votive candles around it.

The ghost bike stands at the intersection where Alexis Bounds was killed on July 24 while riding in a designated bike lane. In the street, someone has written “another slain cyclist” in green paint.

During July, Colorado added several of these memorial ghost bikes to its streets. Like crosses, or the blue city signs that read “Please drive safely,” followed by a victim’s name, they are a physical memorial — a testament to the lives lost on Colorado roadways.

For Brad K. Evans, the founder of Denver Cruisers, a monthly bike event organization, and former candidate for a seat on the Regional Transportation District’s board of directors, the ghost bikes are a stark symbol.

“We need a better conversation

Brad K. Evans helped to paint this ghost bike for his friend Scott Hendrickson. Evans said the ghost bikes are essentially gravestones on the streets.

KAILYN LAMB about the safety of our streets,” he said. “It’s essentially a gravestone.”

In the metro area including Adams, Arapahoe, Broomfield, Denver, Douglas and Jefferson counties, 35 pedestrians and cyclists have died so far this year, according to data from the Colorado Department of Transporta-

tion as of Aug. 20. A majority of those fatalities happened in Denver where 10 pedestrians and two cyclists were killed. On Aug. 9, Denver also reported its first electric scooter death when Cameron Hagan died as the result of an accident earlier this month.

But it’s not just a problem in Denver,

or even Colorado, said Megan Hottman, a lawyer who focuses on personal injury cases for cyclists as well as safety laws for bikes and pedestrians nationwide. This upward trend in deaths is happening across the country, Hottman said. In 2017, 52 bicyclists and pedestrians were killed in the metro area. That number rose to 60 in 2018, according to data from CDOT. Colorado officials and cycling advocates are exploring the need for new and harsher laws to prevent deaths of both pedestrians and cyclists on the road. More people are moving to the metro area, and as a result, more people are on the increasingly crowded roads.

In May, Gov. Jared Polis signed SB 19-175, a bill that deals with penalties given to drivers who seriously injure a vulnerable road user. The World Health Organization defines vulnerable road users as anyone who does not have an external shield. The bill made accidents resulting in serious injury a Class 1 traffic misdemeanor, in which the minimum penalty is 10 days in jail and/or a $300 fine.

As for cycling, Hottman also said that while car drivers bear a lot of the responsibility on the road, cyclists can be more aware as well. She said that cyclist advocates also need to be advocates for safety on the road, making sure cyclists are not using SEE BICYCLE, P6

Home Equity Loans for Seniors—A Safe Option

by Kathy Muni “I called to ask questions about accessing the equity in my home to help cover monthly expenses, but my son was against it. He doesn’t live with me or pay my bills, he just thought it was a bad idea. He spoke with my loan officer, who was able to meet all of his objections. I am so glad I didn’t stop when my son said he didn’t like it!”

Well-meaning children—unaware of recent safeguard changes the US Government has put in place for reverse mortgage borrowers—may prevent their parents from moving forward with a transaction that would truly benefit them.

Misinformation about reverse mortgages abounds. Get the facts.

Objection #1: “Mom, the bank will own your home!” Actually, Mom never gives up the title to her home.

Objection #2: “But Dad, there will be no inheritance for us kids!” Children do not realize that the property can be willed to the kids. With new safeguards (including lower lending limits and reduced mortgage insurance costs), the loan balance grows more slowly, allowing the heirs to decide to refinance or sell the home.

Seniors have worked all their lives to provide for their families.

Rather than struggling financially in retirement, they can unlock the equity in their home, and provide a more secure life in their golden years.

Littleton cyclists find happy trails City hopes to expand its network of ‘low-stress’ bike lanes

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Biking to work in Littleton can be a pretty pleasant experience.

“The trail system here is killer,” said Tyler Burns, a tour guide with Littleton’s GoodTurn Cycles, a nonprofit bike shop that hosts a youth job training program.

Burns commutes by bike from Arvada, and says the final stretch down the Mary Carter Greenway, which parallels the South Platte River, makes for an idyllic ride.

“It’s such a great way to start the day,” Burns said.

Littleton is criss-crossed by bike trails, including the Mary Carter, the High Line Canal Trail, the Little Dry Creek Trail and others.

Biking in Littleton is the focus of a good chunk of the city’s new Transportation Master Plan, currently making its way toward ratification by city council.

The plan, which aims to guide transit projects in the city over the next 20 years, takes stock of Littleton’s current bike infrastructure — the good and bad.

Littleton has more than 51 miles of bike trails, according to the document, and 24 miles of on-street bike lanes and routes — covering 15% of the city’s roads.

During a five-year study period from 2011-15, the document counts 77 car-

Riders cruise the Mary Carter Greenway through Littleton on Bike to Work Day, June 27, 2018. versus-bike crashes in Littleton, with 17 of those along Broadway. There were no fatalities in those 77 collisions.

A separate study looking at more recent data, covering 2014 to 2018, cataloged bike crashes in high-injury intersections, with the intersection of Mineral Avenue and Jackass Hill Road alone seeing seven car-bike crashes — again, none fatal.

An inventory of Littleton’s streets and bike trails found the city has 60

miles of what the study calls “lowstress bicycle facilities,” meaning trails or lanes with low speed limits and diminished danger from car traffic. The vast majority are along the city’s dedicated bike trails.

The plan proposes adding an additional 28 miles of low-stress bike facilities to the city, mostly in the form of protected bike lanes.

Completing the proposed mileage would mean that more than three-quar-

their phones while biking and otherwise setting a positive example. Most cyclists, she said are also motorists, and should operate their bikes with the same precaution as they would driving a car. With congested streets, Hottman also said that people are stressed because they’re running late, which can lead to speeding. If people gave themselves more time to get places, it could help decrease traffic accidents.

“Frankly, we all just need to slow down a little bit,” she said.

The ‘most vulnerable’ Jack Todd, the communications and policy manager with Bicycle Colorado, a statewide advocacy group for cyclists’ rights, said the increase in cyclist deaths has been going on for a number of years.

In 2014, CDOT reported 10 bicycle deaths statewide, a decline from 12 the year before. But in 2015, 14 deaths were reported. In 2016 and 2017, there were 16 deaths reported each year. Numbers from 2018 are still being finalized, but preliminary data shows that 22 cyclists died last

Pedestrian traffic deaths have seen similar increases over time. In 2015, 64 pedestrians were killed in traffic accidents in Colorado. That number

jumped to 84 in 2016, and jumped again to 92 in 2017. Last year there was a slight decrease with 90 reported deaths, with 49 in the metro area.

Although the organization has “bicycle” in the name, Todd says Bicycle Colorado is working to create

ters of Littletonians would be within a 2-mile low-stress bike ride to either the Mineral or Littleton Downtown light rail stations, according to the study, and more than half of households would be within a half-mile low-stress bike ride of neighborhood schools.

In the meantime, Tyler Burns is pretty happy with his commute.

“And the great thing is, if I’m too tired at the end of the day to bike home, I just hop on the train.”

protective laws for all vulnerable road users — bicyclists, pedestrians, motorcyclists and now the new group of electric scooter users.

In 2018, pedestrians represented about 14% of traffic deaths statewide, said Samual Cole, the traffic safety communications manager with CDOT. The state’s transportation organization has adopted its own safety goals, and will be launching an education campaign specifically geared toward pedestrian safety in September, he said.

“Paying attention to our most vulnerable roadway users is critical to getting to zero,” he said.

Because vulnerable road users don’t have protection, it makes it more likely they will get hurt in the case of an accident, Todd added.

“They make up a smaller percentage of traffic crashes, but a much higher percentage of serious injuries or fatalities,” he said. “Ultimately, what it comes down to is nobody should fear for their lives or die on our roadways.”

At a memorial event in Parker for bicyclist Edward “Chuck” Vogel on Aug. 9, Pete Piccolo, the CEO of Bicycle Colorado, spoke to dozens of mourners, saying that too often, the SEE BICYCLE, P7

lieves the number of vulnerable-user deaths are on the rise is because of a lack of laws, but also because more people are driving on Colorado roads.

As people have been moving to the state by the thousands, the infrastructure of the roadways has not been able to keep up, she said. It “screams for the additional need for us to have infrastructure.”

deaths of cyclists or pedestrians become a statistic, just another number in the group of people killed on the road. He added that he fears that his own wife and daughter will become part of those statistics.

“I’ve had close calls that have taken my breath away,” he said.

Vogel was hit on July 4 near the intersection of Pine and Centennial drives in Douglas County, near Parker, and died of his injuries. The driver fled the scene and a suspect was later arrested.

Fears for safety The increase in deaths is causing more people to hang up their bikes for good, said Hottman.

She believes there is safety in numbers. When there are more cyclists, it becomes more normal for cars to drive alongside them. But that can be a hard sell for people not used to biking on the road.

“It’s hard to ask people to get on their bikes when all they see is death and destruction associated with it,” Hottman said.

Evans agreed, saying that even as someone who rides his bike frequently, he no longer feels safe on city streets.

This feeling is not limited to bicyclists either. Joanne Cdebaca, who lives down the street on West Bayaud Avenue from where cyclist Scott Hen-

She and her father, who lives next door, frequently see drivers speed on the roadway. This concerns Cdebaca, because not only are there a lot of children in the neighborhood, they

live near West-Bar-Val-Wood Park.

Hendrickson was hit in the intersection at South Tejon Street and West Bayaud Avenue, adjacent to the park.

He later died of his injuries.

“They don’t want to wait for you,” Cdebaca said of drivers near the park.

Changing behavior In Fort Collins, Todd said, the city is changing the way local governments deal with bicycle infrastructure. Tessa Greegor, the active modes manager with FC Moves in Fort Collins, said the city has seen a 22% decline in accidents overall in the last five years. FC Moves is the transportation planning department for the city. As the active modes manager, Greegor helps with planning for all types of traffic, including pedestrians and bicyclists.

She added that city government there has been very supportive of bicycle infrastructure going as far back as the 1980s. Before that, Greegor said she found archive articles of The Coloradoan newspaper from the 1960s that talked about bicycle advocacy groups fighting for safer streets.

“That’s really been growing for several decades,” she said. “Not a lot has really changed as far as what we’re working to advance.”

Fort Collins now has a “dedicated bike culture,” she said, adding that you can go almost anywhere in the city on your bike. Businesses, advocates, residents and city government all support the bicycle network.

Temple Grandin urges workforce inclusion, trade skills Developmental Pathways holds roundtable discussion

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Local community leaders recently heard from renowned autism advocate Temple Grandin on employing people with disabilities and workplace inclusion.

Developmental Pathways serves individuals with disabilities or developmental delays in Arapahoe County, Douglas County and the City of Aurora. That’s an area with approximately 1 million people, said interim CEO Matt Vanauken.

On Sept. 9, the organization invited leaders from local government, the K-12 school system, higher education, hospitals and the business commu-

Temple Grandin spoke at a Developmental Pathways roundtable on Sept. 9.

COURTESY PHOTO nity to a roundtable discussion with Grandin.

Grandin is a Fort Collins resident

and Colorado State University professor known for her work in animal welfare and autism advocacy. Diagnosed with autism as a child, Grandin has authored numerous books and gives lectures offering a firsthand account of living with autism.

She largely spoke Sept. 9 on workforce needs and employing people with disabilities.

Grandin bemoans the loss of trade skills and jobs in the United States.

She says children aren’t being taught hands-on activities like they once were. She gave examples as simple as a child learning to make a paper snowflake up to the decline of shop programs in schools.

“It’s a lot harder to train them as grownups,” she said.

She believes it’s a problem in a world where technology is replacing some jobs but not all. Computers will never suffice in lieu of plumbers,

welders, electricians and mechanics, she said, calling those high-end trades.

“Don’t stick your nose up at it,” she said of trade skills.

Grandin also discussed what job opportunities should exist for people with disabilities.

There are positions, like making copies in an office, that are great training jobs, Grandin said, and for some people bagging groceries is appropriate. But others are well-suited to work in Silicon Valley or as a professor like herself.

“I want people in jobs they’re going to like,” she said.

People with autism are often highly skilled in one area but struggle in another. Grandin is a visual thinker who thinks through images. She struggled as a student and in subjects like algebra.

Old latex paint?

Don’t flip out! Dry it out!

Have you been stockpiling cans of latex paint, waiting for the next Douglas County Household Chemical Roundup? Good news – latex paint is water-based and safe to throw away, if prepared properly. If the paint is completely dry, simply remove the lid and throw the can away.

If there is still wet paint in the can, mix in some dirt or cat litter to fully absorb it. Once it is dry, throw it away. Save yourself a trip to the Roundup (and the $25 contribution) if you have water-based paint.

Remember, this only applies to water-based latex paint, and NO paint can be dumped in the gutter or thrown in the trash wet.

Make a difference in keeping our waterways clean by practicing cost-effective ways to dispose of materials properly.

Urban farm, restaurant and market coming to Englewood Grow + Gather will occupy the old Bill’s Auto Service building

BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

George Gastis sold his tech business four years ago — a year after he packed his bags and moved to Englewood from Platt Park. Contemplating what his next move would be, he knew he always had a green thumb and a love for food.

At first, he had planned to find a property to purchase or rent where he would grow food that would be sold to grocery stores and restaurants. In the process of planning his next steps, Gastis purchased the old Bill’s Auto Service building, located at 900 E. Hampden Ave. “The idea quickly became more than just a place to grow food. There seemed to be a great opportunity to create a place where not only can we grow food, but reconnect the neighborhood and surrounding communities,” said Gastis, referring to places like Littleton, south Denver, Greenwood Village and other areas near Englewood. “Our geographic location is sort of strangely unique in the sense that we sit on the edge of some of those communities.”

A rendering of the future Grow + Gather urban farm and marketplace.

Construction on the building is expected to be complete in October. For more information, visit growgather.com.

After planning and talking to people from his past, Gastis realized there was an opportunity to create a hub around food at the old Bill’s Auto Service building. Gastis seized the opportunity, and depending on construction, Grow + Gather will open its doors in October. The development will be a casual restaurant and a market that’ll sell coffee and freshly harvested produce and foods - all grown at Grow + Gather.

“When we moved to this neighborhood, I saw the potential in this area.

There wasn’t a ton to do,” said Gastis.

“Combined with trying to figure out what I wanted to do and recognizing the opportunity here — Englewood

PHOTOS AND RENDERING COURTESY OF GEORGE GASTIS seemed to be in the process of reviving itself with a lot of new businesses moving in, a lot of development, certainly (Swedish Medical Center) and their role they played in the community — it seemed really interesting.”

The restaurant will be operated by chefs like Caleb Phillips, a Tennessee native who plans to bring a Southern twist to some of Grow + Gather’s dishes. Phillips says the menu will be simple, but it’ll center around ingredients that will come from

Grow + Gather’s farm. Some of its dishes will include biscuits, salads, pies, egg dishes and grits. Beer will also be available at the restaurant, brewed from the second level of the building.

“It’s just the neatest idea. I get to walk 20 yards to get fresh vegetables,” said Phillips. “The community has already been super kind and receptive.

I think it’s going to be a lot of fun.”

VOICES Farewell to laundromats is a wash come true

I

just washed a load of colors and had a particularly gruesome flashback to a time when I didn’t own a washing QUIET machine.

I didn’t own a wash- DESPERATION ing machine until I was 33. I depended upon the ones in my apartment buildings or public laundromats.

Whenever laundromats are shown in films (“Shopgirl,” “The Blind Side,” Craig Marshall “Sling Blade”) they are almost always Smith sad-looking places with sad-looking people in them.

I went to Yelp to see if things have

changed, at least in Denver, and the Top Ten look nothing like the ones I went to in West Los Angeles, that had a lost-and-found of 40 or 50 unmatched socks, a few peach-colored brassieres, and kitchen towels with pictures of spices on them.

In college, I did my laundry once every two weeks, and I always went at odd hours, to avoid people. However, it meant that others who did their laundry at odd hours to avoid people would be there too. We never spoke. Maybe we nodded to each other, and that was it.

I do not underestimate my washing machine. It is more dependable than I am. It has a lot of different settings on it, but I think it’s just an illusion, and every setting actually performs identically.

How does a box of water know if

something is permanent press or not?

The answer is: It doesn’t, but it sounds reassuring.

When I went to laundromats, I had to sit there and wait. It was two hours of sitting there, and I usually took a book. The time wasn’t misused, but I would rather have been reading the book in my own home.

I was always on the lookout for nefarious types. Los Angeles has a few. However, my relentless self-preservation disallowed the possibility that I might meet someone who would become famous someday.

Here is an imagined conversation.

“Hey,” he said.

“Hello,” I said.

“I’m writing a song. I need a word that rhymes with ‘mire.’”

“Pyre?”

“Perfect. ‘And our love become a funeral pyre.’ Thanks, man.”

“Shouldn’t it be ‘becomes a funeral pyre’?”

“Uh, no, man.”

The lighting in the laundromats I went to was always very unflattering.

Maybe that has changed too. It made everything and everyone look worse.

As if David Lynch was behind it.

My first apartment building, on Sawtelle in West Los Angeles, had two washing machines and two dryers. It was always a matter of luck whether they were in use or not.

Sometimes loads would be left in them long after clothes were washed or dried, and that led to: 1. apologies, or 2. disputes. Generally, disputes.

It’s a choice, and if you are reading this column right now, you still have time to make new choices, choose to follow the rewarding path you may be currently on and enjoying, or choose a new and different way forward.

One of my favorite personal development books of all time came out earlier this year. It is titled “Choose to Win” by Tom Ziglar, the proud son of Zig Ziglar and the CEO of the Zig Ziglar Corporation. The subtitle contains the magic and power of the book, “Transform Your Life One Simple Step at a Time.” And within the book I found the strategies and tactics that allowed me to plan and prepare for the next steps and new journey I was about to embark upon.

When asked for the secret to success, Tom offers this response, “The fastest way to success is to replace bad habits with good habits.” Sounds kind of easy right? If it is, why aren’t we all already doing it? It’s because we haven’t yet made the choice to intentionally choose to win. We may have made bad decisions in the past,

Tariffs increasing market volatility

hank goodness we live in the United States. Among the blessings we share is an economy that has been more self-reliant than most. The United States contains vast amounts of natural resources, the world’s largest economy, a steady central banking system and a relatively resilient consumer. This positively compares our economic and political structure to China, Germany FINANCIAL and Japan.

We as a nation STRATEGIES face a new challenge … the fact that the world’s second largest economy, China, seems to be attempting to take advantage of the rest of the world. Governments around the world imposing tariffs on Patricia Kummer imports is commonplace. The United States’ tariff rate on industrial products — prior to the changes of the last few months — is among the lowest in the world, according to the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative. The tariff issue has been brewing for the better part of two years. However, the real issue the world has with China may have little to do with actual tariff rates, but rather industrial espionage and China’s global expansionary plans over the long term.

Two of the more egregious practices which the Chinese government has undertaken during the last number of

we may have chosen poorly, but we can start turning that all around with the choices we make today and in all the tomorrows yet to come.

Starting with your “why” is step one. Why am I doing this? Why are we doing this? It’s no different with our decision to choose to win. And as you will read in Tom’s book, he points out that discovering our “why” is also a choice. We need to be proactive and understand what we want to be, do, and have in this life. When we do, and when our “why” becomes clear, it will be much easier to make the right choices in each area that supports our goals and dreams. Replace bad habits with good habits, elegantly simple and yet powerfully productive when we choose to do it, when we choose to win.

The teachings of Zig Ziglar con-

SMITH FROM PAGE 12

I bought my first washing machine when I bought my first house. It was a major purchase. And I bought a matching dryer.

Everything changed. I was on my own. I could light my laundry area anyway I wanted to, and not wear pants if I wanted to.

years have been: • To gain access to China’s economy, importers may need to take on a Chinese partner … someone who may be tied directly to the Chinese government. This allows China control over import levels, prices and business practices of companies.

• Industrial espionage has been a common practice of various Chinesebased companies backed by the Chinese government. Additionally, foreign companies may be required by the Chinese government to provide access to patent-protected manufacturing processes and proprietary industrial secrets. If companies refuse to comply with these requirements, they may not be allowed to sell their products to them.

These requirements have provided the opportunity for China’s companies to mimic high-tech manufacturing efficiencies gained through hard work and investments by companies and people from around the world.

Therefore, we are in a Catch-22.

While someone needs to rein in China, there are definitely concerns around the problems increased tariffs may bring upon our economy.

There could be another round of issues with China coming. There remains about $300 billion of annual Chinese imports into the United States that haven’t been affected by the tariff war … yet. Will the Trump administration apply the new 25% tariff rate to these imports? As of this writing, we don’t know, but, by most accounts, the tinue to positively impact millions of people. His body of work when it comes to developing excellence in ourselves and in others has contributed to the success of many CEO’s, business owners, parents, students, athletes, salespeople, managers, and people from all walks of life. This new book by his son Tom Ziglar, “Choose to Win,” will change your life and contribute to your success. It really will, but only if you first choose that you want to win and desire a change in your own path or journey.

How about you? Is it time to replace a bad habit with a good one? Is it time to make new choices? I would love to hear your “Choose to Win” story at gotonorton@gmail.com and when we decide to make and own our choices in life, it really will be a better than good week.

Chinese authorities are not backing down on their practices that we, and much of the rest of the world, want addressed. This amounts to about half of all imports from China, therefore providing the United States significant power to apply further pressure to China’s exports to our country.

The potential impact from these new tariffs could cause an increase in inflation along with slower overall growth in consumer discretionary spending.

Perhaps the biggest impact may be on both consumer and business sentiment. In the meantime, the uncertainty of the trade issues affects capital market price volatility levels and investors may remain wary for the time being.

LIFE Don’t be a

TRAIL TROLL Open space officials, volunteers discuss outdoor etiquette amid increasing use

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

W

hen a bicyclist encounters a horseback rider on the trail, do they know what to do? When hikers walk their dogs through local open spaces, do they know the dos and don’ts of taking pets along for the adventure?

Denver metro area open space officials and volunteers who spoke to Colorado Community Media said the majority of people are considerate and follow trails rules. But they’ve also seen an influx of people hitting the trails as the Front Range’s population booms. That heightens the need for trail etiquette education, they said.

“You’ve got experienced people who don’t think twice about (etiquette) and your inexperienced people who just aren’t used to it yet,” said Open Space Specialist Hans Reichgelt with the City of Westminster.

In general, trail etiquette stipulates that cyclists yield to hikers and horseback riders, while hikers yield to horses. Yielding means moving off the trail until a user with the right-of-way has passed.

People should also stay to the right and keep pets on the right as well. Pass others on the left. People should announce themselves before passing. Clean up after pets.

Douglas County recently produced informational materials concerning trail etiquette in light of the county’s population growth and increase in trail use, said Assistant Director of Open Space Scott McEldowney.

“We anticipate roughly 600,000 users on open space this year,” McEldowney said. “I believe this year we will be about 5% over last year. The previous few years, we have seen a 15% to 20% increase.”

That’s a lot of people to fit in a relatively confined area, McEldowney said.

Total, the county manages 90 miles of open space trails and another 63 miles in Douglas County parks.

That’s not counting municipalities, state parks or federal forest land in the area.

In the north metro, Westminster offers 150 miles of trail surface, most of which is multimodal, Reichgelt said. People can walk, run, bike or ride horses.

In 2017, Westminster saw just shy of 550,000 trail users and nearly 554,000 in 2018.

Reichgelt said the city expects to surpass last year’s count “very soon for 2019.” He cautioned the city does not have counters on all trails, so the true numbers could be higher.

Open space officials aren’t the only ones advocating for responsible trail use and etiquette.

Throughout Jefferson County, the nonprofit Golden Giddyup Trail Team partners with Jefferson County Open Space to maintain trails. The organization began in 2013 after floods devastated the local

Cyclists ride recently on the Cherry Creek Trail near Centennial.

Part of trail etiquette means staying to the right and allowing oncoming trail users space to pass, not taking up the width of the trail like these pedestrians at Bingham Lake Park in The Pinery, near Parker.

trail system.

This summer, members surpassed 10,000 hours of volunteer work. Those hours have included pop-up events where they encourage people to follow open space rules and regulations.

“Working with open space and staff, we’ve specifically targeted mountain bikers at some of the most heavily used parks,” said Executive Director Jeff Watrobka.

The group is mostly comprised of mountain bikers. Watrobka himself averages 40 to 50 miles a week. He believes an important part of trail

etiquette is understanding a trail’s difficulty level before setting out.

Then, he said, check the weather. It’s important for trail users to pay attention to recent weather events. Different trails are comprised of different soil types, he said.

Some lend themselves well to biking or horseback riding when wet, but others do not. Those with heavy clay content can be damaged if used too soon after rain or snow, he said.

If he could grade Douglas County trail users, McEldowney said he’d give them a B-plus. There’s a low frequency of accidents, which can partially be attributed to how the system was planned, he said, but also to educated users.

When it comes to areas of improvement, Reichgelt, McEldowney and Watrobka all urged trails user to remain aware of their surroundings.

Ditch the headphones. Be on the lookout for wildlife, and other trail users. Lastly, leash the family dog, and keep it close.

When people make complaints, it’s frequently about unleashed dogs, McEldowney said. Similarly, Reichgelt said allowing dogs to extend their leash across the trail is a common mistake people make.

“That’s just a clothesline for anyone coming through on a bike,” he said.

Mostly, the men encouraged people to follow the golden rule and take care of the trail as though it were their home.

“Just be nice,” Reichgelt said. “Everyone is trying to do the same thing — just get out there and enjoy the outdoors.”

IF YOU GO “Cabaret” plays through Oct. 13 at Town Hall Arts Center, 2450 W Main St., downtown Littleton. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and 2 p.m. Sundays. Tickets: 303-794-2787, townhallartcenter.org.

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The musical, which opened on Broadway in 1966 with several Tony Awards, was followed by a film version in 1972 and is a skillful blend of sun and shadow, sarcasm and wit — set mostly in Berlin’s Kit Kat Klub, where sexy dancers perform and one imagines a haze of smoke …

Young American writer Clifford Bradshaw (Archie Archuleta) meets friendly German Ernst Ludwig (Matt LaFontaine) as their train travels toward Berlin. Bradshaw plans to write his first novel, while supporting himself by teaching English, somewhat oblivious — as many Americans were — of the Nazi rise to power. Ludwig helps him find a place to live in the boardinghouse operated by Fraulein Schneider (a strong Annie Dwyer) — and the story proceeds. The seemingly cheerful, friendly Ludwig shows another facet as the story develops and we’re not quite sure about some other characters.

Another of Schneider’s boarders is brassy blonde Fraulein Kost (Mary McGroary), who attracts a parade of sailors and others as guests.

Ludwig also recommended that

In his director’s notes for the “Cabaret” program — the musical opened Sept. 6 at Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center — Nick Sugar, aka Master of Ceremonies, says this is his seventh production of “Cabaret.” And, he glides gracefully through the scenes — popping up here and there, with a snarky grin and choice words, tying the production together and sending an audience home feeling far edgier than when they arrived. It’s really a don’t-miss performance — running through Oct. 13.

One is reminded of director/actor Sugar’s dance background in his own graceful performance as well as the way other characters move onstage while storm clouds gather in early 1930s Berlin — and blow across Europe. Kate Bashore’s lighting seems to add to the tense atmosphere.

Clever stage design by Brandon Philip Case includes some audience members in the club décor, with red and gold ornate lamps and small tables up tight against the rim of the stage — and along part of the first row. Festive and edgy at once …

“Don’t Tell Mama” features the Kit Kat Klub dancers in “Cabaret” at Town Hall Arts Center in downtown Littleton.

COURTESY PHOTO Bradshaw visit the Kit Kat Klub for a taste of Berlin nightlife, to enjoy wine, women and music — and he is immediately attracted to lead Kit Kat girl, the English Sally Bowles (Lynzee Lee Jones), who soon moves in with him in the boardinghouse operated by Fraulein Schneider, after the jealous club owner kicks her out.

A parallel and contrasting romance between Schneider and older Jewish merchant Herr Schultz (Tom Mullin) runs through the play, reminding the audience of the rising Nazi power as an ongoing story layer, as well as the possibility of romance for older people.

Kander and Ebb’s music and lyrics for “Cabaret” are still running through my head. In this production a fine score is enhanced with actors’ strong vocal performances — and by keyboard

whiz and music director Dona Kolpan Debreceni — with a live band that just makes such a difference. One can’t help but go out into the night humming.

One isn’t skipping while humming however, because the underlying rumble of disaster also surfaces periodically, with a remark or a rendering of “Tomorrow Belongs to Me,” the Nazi anthem.

Sugar concludes in his notes that he “wanted to make sure, this story is not only heard, but remembered and honored.”

“I hope that you take a wonderful journey with all of us tonight. And after that journey, we leave here with a deep understanding of the cruelty in our world and the ability to transform that understanding into kindness, compassion and love for one another.”

Award-winning author releases middle grade book In “Finding Home,” Evergreen girl adopts rare-breed horse STAFF REPORT

Kids and horses were made for each other, especially when the kid is a young Colorado teen who dreams of owning a real mustang. But adopting wild horses isn’t easy, especially when the young filly yearns to be back with her herd.

Denver native Corinne Joy Brown, a multi-award-winning author and horse owner for 40 years, brings together young Jesse Nolan from Evergreen and Curly Girl, an American Curly, a breed that sports a coat like a poodle in the winter, in her first publication for middle grade readers (ages 9-13) titled “Finding Home.”

DISCUSSION

WHO IS TEMPLE GRANDIN?

FROM PAGE 8

Created with Colorado illustrator Ginny McDonald, the book is based loosely on McDonald’s actual adoption of a wild filly descended from this rare breed. Author and illustrator both advocate for solving America’s imperiled wild horse dilemma, and strive to create awareness, to inform, and to educate, all while entertaining young readers with an endearing and timeless tale.

The author and illustrator have formed their own publishing house, Loose Cayuse Productions, intending to bring quality stories about life with horses to children who love them.

The public is invited to join Brown and McDonald at the Tattered Cover Bookstore, Aspen Grove, 7301 S. Santa Fe Drive, Littleton, at 2 p.m. Sunday, Sept.

22, for a reading by the author.

A book signing will follow. For more information go to mustangcurly.com

But her visual thinking helped her to revolutionize the design of cattle handling facilities. Roughly half of America’s cattle are in systems Grandin designed, according to her website.

Her work in animal science and the cattle industry was featured in the HBO film “Temple Grandin,” which won seven Emmy’s and a Golden Globe.

Grandin urges businesses to employ all sorts of thinkers — visual, mathematical and verbal. They each bring a different skillset and expertise to the workforce.

She uses phones as an example. Apple can’t make an iPhone without the artists who design the interface to be user-friendly and the engineers that actually make the device function, she said.

Grandin said it’s important for people with disabilities to be stretched — to learn to work outside the family and home.

Kim Tenure, a policy education and advocacy manager for Developmental Pathways, said the organization would like to see more inclusion in the workplace for people with disabilities. The organization can help employers find resources to help them make their workplace open to people with disabilities.

People with disabilities are less likely to be employed than those that do not have a disability, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The proportion of people with a disability who were also employed was approximately 19% in 2018, compared to 66% for people without a disability.

She said the trade skills Grandin spoke

Temple Grandin is a professor at Colorado State University who’s renowned for her autism advocacy efforts, her work in animal welfare and for designing facilities that handle farm animals in a more humane manner.

Her life inspired the 2010 HBO film, “Temple Grandin,” in which she was portrayed by actor Claire Danes. The movie received seven Emmy awards and a Golden Globe.

Born in Boston, Grandin was diagnosed with autism as a child. She did not speak until roughly 3 1/2 years old. She experienced teasing and bullying in school but found a passion for animals through working on a cattle farm and pursued science at the encouragement of her mentor and science teacher, Mr. Carlock.

The Fort Collins resident obtained her B.A. at Franklin Pierce College in 1970, her M.S. in animal science from Arizona State University and her Ph.D. in animal science from the University of Illinois in 1989.

She’s authored numerous books on working with animals and autism, including autobiographies that offered an unprecedented firsthand account of living with autism.

Sources: templegrandin.com, Temple Grandin of can also be opportunities to hire people with disabilities.

“We talk all the time about these jobs that we can’t fill,” she said. “What do you really need in this job? Is it something that could be taught to a person with a disability?”

Mostly, Tenure said the organization wants competitive employment opportunities for people with disabilities.

“You learn and you grow with every job you have,” Tenure said. “People with disabilities are the same.”

CCIG moves into new office CCIG has moved into its new headquarters after a top-to-bottom renovation designed to create a modern, highly collaborative work environment featuring state-of-theart technology.

The 45,000-square-foot building — more than double the size of its former home — gives CCIG room to grow in a space where it can better serve clients and the community.

Already one of the fastestgrowing independent commercial, personal and employee benefits insurance brokerages in the region, CCIG has tripled in size over the past 10 years.

Consistently rated among the top places to work, CCIG employs 95 insurance professionals. Its new headquarters will ultimately serve as home to an expected workforce of more than 150 people.

CCIG acquired the three-story building at 155 Inverness Drive West last year and began the renovation in the spring of 2019.

The renovation included extending the structure on two floors to add space and adding conference rooms, coffee bars, communal cafes and more than a dozen “huddle rooms” where employees can meet with clients or team members working remotely.

Bayaud names new executive director Tammy Bellofatto was named executive director at Bayaud Enterprises. Bellofatto comes to Bayaud from Colorado Coalition for the Homeless, where she was director of vocational services. She begins her new role Oct. 1.

“I am thrilled to have Ms. Bellofatto join the team at Bayaud Enterprises as our new executive director. She has demonstrated experience and proven success as the director of employment services at the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless,” David E. Henninger, founder of Bayaud Enterprises,

said in a news release.

For more than 50 years, Bayaud Enterprises has been a community innovator, reducing hurdles for people to find work and community.

“Ms. Bellofatto comes to Bayaud with the perfect experience and passion to lead Bayaud on its mission of reducing hurdles for individuals in the workforce. The board is thrilled to have found our next executive director,” Sabrina Stavish, Bayaud Enterprises president, board of directors, said in the release.

New approach to care A recently opened medical office is taking a different approach to health care.

According to a news release, Pure Family Medicine, founded by Dr. Rebecca Bub, uses the Direct Primary Care health care model, a growing movement across the nation in which patients pay a monthly fee and receive much of their primary care for no additional cost.

“Direct Primary Care lets me get the time I have always wanted with my patients,” Bub said in the release. “As a result, I’ve gotten to know them on a personal level and have helped them make real changes in their lives.”

The monthly cost is from $65-$95 per person, and that cost includes appointments, in-office procedures and around-the-clock access to their doctor. When there is an additional charge, patients receive at-cost pricing and are shown costs up front so they know what to expect.

By making health care costs predictable and affordable, Pure Family Medicine lets patients take control of their health care, the news release said.

The office opened in August at 13402 W. Coal Mine Ave., Suite 250, Littleton. Learn more by calling 720828-7873 or emailing info@purefamilymedicine.com. Go to https://www. purefamilymedicine.com.

SPORTS STUDENT-ATHLETE STUDENT ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT

She has a winning spirit Q&A with Martinez What is your favorite class in school and why?

Poetry. I love poetry because I feel without you having to talk with someone, you are getting your emotions down, you really have communication. And poetry doesn’t have to rhyme. When people think of poetry they think of rhyming and different sorts of stanzas but when you are writing down poetry you can always get your feelings out.

What do you like to do away from school?

I love to be with family.

Going along with that, I love to go on hikes, go rafting, and in the wintertime like to go skiing and stuff like that outdoors.

What are your plans after high school?

I plan to go to Red Rocks Community College to get my basics for two years and then I would love to transfer to CSU. PHOTO BY JIM BENTON

ierra Martinez is a senior member of the Littleton High School spirit team.

She practices with the team every day at school and goes with the team to a studio one night a week to work on techniques.

She played on the junior varsity soccer team last spring and considers herself a hard-working athlete with the time she spends with the spirit team.

“I do,” she emphasized. “Like any other sport, spirit is competitive with the practice and the stretching. It’s not like football, soccer, baseball or anything. It doesn’t have a ball. I believe that football, baseball, poms or anything people would consider a sport, you want to win.

“In poms, if you are competing, you want to get the first-place trophy. You want to hit a double turn or make sure you toes are pointing. In football you want to make a tackle or baseball you want hit a home run. So I do consider dancing a sport.”

COACH’S TAKE: ‘She is a great leader and one of our top performers. She is always looking out for others.’

Sarah Kinney, Littleton spirit squad coach Have a suggestion for whom to feature in Student-Athlete Spotlight?

Email Jim Benton at jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com

What is your favorite song?

I love country music. It would probably be “Roller Coaster” by Luke Bryan.

I love Luke Bryan, he’s a really good artist.

What is your favorite movie?

“Selena.” She was more into music but she was really determined at a young age to become this person who spoke to the world through her music, going back and forth between English and Spanish.

What is your favorite meal?

I love pizza. Just a regular pepperoni pizza with a side of ranch.

What is most difficult about competing in poms competition?

Memorizing a dance is the most difficult part.

While you are dancing you have to remember all these different sorts of things, like to point your toes.

U.S. Soccer rules frustrate coaches at high schools

H

igh school soccer in Colorado has been forced to adopt a new look over the past few seasons.

Many of the best players are skipping high school soccer because of the commitment to play with Developmental Academy teams.

“We’ve got three or four or five players roaming the halls that are not playing for us,’” said Mark Hampshire, who is the coach of Arapahoe’s defending state champions and No. 1 ranked 5A team in the state this year. “I think OVERTIME unfortunately that is the way it is for a lot of folks.

“We have some guys that could have played DA but they realize the importance of high school, Jim Benton that it is going to get then farther that developmental. “ Developmental Academies are designed for elite players looking to play collegiate soccer and maybe beyond, so practices and games are against top-flight competition, which challenges player to improve their skills. According to U.S. Soccer, the academy’s philosophy is based on increased training, fewer total games and more meaningful matches. Players are showcased for college recruiters.

The major controversy surrounding the 10-month DA season is that players and teams cannot play in any outside competition, which includes high school soccer. Boys DA programs started in 2007 with six age groups starting at U12. Girls DA programs began in 2017 with four age groups.

“We lost anywhere between four to six players, which is unfortunate because soccer keeps pushing that on families and kids,” said Heritage coach Adam Buseck after the Eagles lost 1-0 to Arapahoe in a rivalry game. “They can’t hardly get out of their own way.

“A couple of those kids who played DA are here, watching our game. They want to play but they also have to follow their own choices.

RIVALRY GAME

A CLOSE ONE

Arapahoe’s Caleb Ballard (7) kicks the ball away from Grant Thompson of Heritage during a Sept. 10 soccer game at Littleton Public Schools Stadium. Arapahoe, the top-ranked Class 5A boys soccer team in the CHSAANow.com poll, defeated the Eagles, 1-0, on the strength of a goal by Connor Crookham. It was the fifth straight win for the Warriors in the rivalry series against Heritage.

“U.S. Soccer is one of the organizations that they think they know what is right.”

There are two DA programs per gender in Colorado. Colorado Real has both boys and girls DA programs. The Rapids has a boys DA program and Colorado Rush has a girls program.

“There is a place for high school just as I think there is a place for the developmental academy,” said Colorado Real chief operating officer Jared Spires. “For a club like Real, we’re not saying the developmental academy is the right thing any more than we are saying high school is the right thing.

“We want to be at the forefront of club soccer and currently that is the developmental academy. To participate in that we have to abide by U.S. Soccer’s mandates, which says kids

don’t play high school sports if they are in your developmental academy.

“We’re not saying the academy is better. We tell our academy players there is nothing that stops them from being involved in their high schools in different ways. We are just saying when it comes to soccer, because of the Developmental Academy rules, you can’t play.”

Requests for comments from U.S. Soccer were not returned.

Jim Engels coached club soccer for 30 years and is the boys and girls coach at Ponderosa.

“DA has hurt high school soccer a lot just from the standpoint of talent level,” he said. “We still have good soccer in high school but we lost a lot of talented players, both boys and girls.

It hurts the kids, too, because very kid I’ve talked to either would rather play high school or comes back and plays high school.

“To me the academies are all about money. It’s expensive, plus it burns kids out. If you don’t play academy

Without public notices, the government wouldn’t have to say anything else.

Public notices are a community’s window into the government. From zoning regulations to local budgets, governments have used local newspapers to inform citizens of its actions as an essential part of your right to know. You know where to look, when to look and what to look for to be involved as a citizen. Local newspapers provide you with the information you need to get involved.

Notices are meant to be noticed.

Read your public notices and get involved!
