Future unclear for Littleton seniors’ home City to stop filling vacancies at Geneva Village; aging facility needs work, officials say

according to city records, and was designed by noted architect Eugene Sternberg, who also designed Bemis Library, Heritage High School and Arapahoe Community College’s main campus.

The city bought the facility in 1975, and built its new city hall on the eastern end of the grounds that once belonged to a convalescent home for hospitality workers. The city entered into an arrangement with SMHO, then called the Littleton Housing Authority, to manage the apartments.

Relph said the original terms of the agreement between the city and SMHO are currently unknown, because nobody can seem to find the documents.

Donna Ehlers says Geneva Village saved her life.

“I was living in a mobile home park, and the lot fees just kept going up and up,” said Ehlers, 82, who deals with heart problems, macular degeneration and emphysema.

She landed a two-bedroom apartment at the 29-unit complex beside Littleton’s city hall in May 2018, after spending six years on a waiting list through South Metro Housing Options, or SMHO, Littleton’s public housing authority. She pays $450 a month for the unit.

“I didn’t know what I was going to do before I got this place,” said Ehlers, who has lived alone since her husband died in 1989. “I didn’t know where I was going to live or what would happen to me.”

Ehlers and her neighbors got a shock on Oct. 15, when they found notices taped to their doors that the City of Littleton, which owns the complex, would no longer be filling vacancies “until further notice … pending fur-

ther decisions.”

“When and if units are rented again in the future it will be after all necessary remediation and renovation has been completed,” said the notice. “In the interim, active discussions about the facility’s future are taking place.”

Ehlers and her neighbors were left scratching their heads.

Ehlers said.

‘There’s no big picture’ Turns out they’re not alone — city officials aren’t sure what’s next for the facility either.

“First, I want to say there are no plans to close the facility or kick anyone out,” said City Manager Mark Relph. “That said, I don’t know what we’re doing at an operational or policy level. There’s no big picture here.”

The city was left holding the bag in October after SMHO, which had managed the property for decades, pulled out of the arrangement.

In a letter delivered to city council in March, SMHO announced their intent to withdraw, calling the arrangement “untenable.”

“For many years we have expressed our severe misgivings about the nature of our Geneva Village involvement,” the letter reads in part.

For one thing, SMHO said, the complex’s qualification process does not require applicants to meet low-income criteria — residents must only be over 55 and pass a background check. Second, SMHO said, rents at the facility, ranging from $300 a month for a studio to $450 a month for a two-bedroom, were so low that the agency couldn’t guarantee it could afford to comply with their legal mandate to provide “safe and sanitary dwelling accommodations.”

Efforts to raise rents at the complex stalled out in city council twice in recent years, in the face of opposition from residents and advocates, according to previous articles in the Littleton Independent.

Meanwhile, the facility is showing its age, Relph said.

The facility was built in 1964,

‘What else is wrong?’

Concerns about the facility’s condition grew after a gas line leak a few years ago revealed more problems.

“It turned out we had Swiss cheese for a gas line,” Relph said. “It got our attention. What else is wrong here?”

An inspection completed earlier this year found the facility toeing the line between a “fair” and “poor” rating, said Public Works Director Keith Reester, and showed the facility needs a lot of work: upgrades to electrical systems and plumbing, improved access for people with disabilities, and asbestos abatement.

“This starts adding up really fast,” Reester said. “The city never set aside money for these capital needs, and the current rents won’t cover it.”

In the meantime, the city has contracted with Denver Real Estate Moguls to collect rents and address minor issues at the property.

The facility is one of more than 30 city-owned properties in need of expensive upgrades, according to a city report. Littleton’s capital projects fund, the portion of the budget that pays for infrastructure, is severely short on cash, Relph said in September, calling it a “critical problem.”

Reester said Public Works is prepared to fix up the facility, so long as the city can come up with money to pay for it.

‘It’s a hot potato’ Mayor Debbie Brinkman, who will leave office in November, said that may not be the best course of action.

“City council has no business being a landlord to citizens,” Brinkman said. “There’s something inherently wrong with that. Nobody’s wanted to make the hard decisions here because it’s a hot potato.”

Brinkman said she believes selling the property should be an option on the table. The property has a 2019 appraised value of nearly $1.6 million, according to county records.

Brinkman said it’s vital the city be SEE SENIORS, P10

Littleton Leadership Academy disbands Program sought to develop local leaders; city will develop a successor

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

After two years, three graduating classes and 74 graduates, the Littleton Leadership Academy is no more.

Former Littleton mayor Susan Thornton, who ran the civic affairs boot camp, announced the end of the program on Oct. 18, a day after the final graduation ceremony.

The program will live on, however, as “Littleton 101,” a city-run academy with a similar mandate, though a more limited scope.

The Littleton Leadership Academy, a 10-month program that held sessions on a wide range of civic affairs, was simply getting to be too much for its board members to handle, Thornton said.

“I’m sad in a way and I’m relieved in a way,” Thornton said. “At times it was a lot of work.”

The academy’s board had consisted of Thornton, former Littleton Mayor Pat Cronenberger, former Littleton City Councilmember Amy Conklin, and sitting Councilmember Kyle Schlachter, who graduated from the academy in 2017, shortly before he was elected to council alongside fellow graduate Karina Elrod.

The academy “prepared future leaders of the community by providing them with in-depth information about the city and its significant partners, and about the complexity of governance,” according to a news release.

Sessions took students to the state Legislature, the state supreme court, and to a variety of community fixtures like water treatment plants, hospitals and schools, Thornton said.

The program’s legacy is producing more educated local leaders, Thornton said.

“They understand the city isn’t an island,” Thornton said. “To accomplish positive things, we have to work with each other and the metro area.”

Two other program graduates are running for Littleton City Council this year: Scott Melin and Kelly Milliman, both of whom have drawn campaign donations from Thornton, Conklin and Cronenberger — as has Schlachter, who is running for reelection.

Thornton said she has heard accusations that the academy groomed council candidates to be pro-big business and pro-development, but called the charges hogwash.

“That’s nonsense,” Thornton said.

“We had 79 speakers this year, and the year before we had more. They were from for-profits, nonprofits and government. We urged people to go out and develop their own opinions. We weren’t hearing from big developers.”

Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman said the Littleton Leadership Academy

The final graduating class of the Littleton Leadership Academy. The program sought to educate locals about the workings of government.

COURTESY PHOTO has been a boon to the city.

“It pulled people out of the community who weren’t engaged, and unearthed their talents,” Brinkman said. “The ideas that came out of the academy were brilliant. I hate to see it go.”

Schlachter said the academy was instrumental in preparing him for a successful council run.

“There were two main things I got from the academy,” Schlachter said.

“One was a foundation of the functions of local government and regional issues, which was really important to hit the ground running on council. The other was the people I met, like Karina (Elrod) and Scott (Melin), people with the South Metro Denver Chamber and the Littleton Business Chamber.”

Littleton City Manager Mark Relph called the Littleton Leadership Academy a “service to the community.”

Relph said “Littleton 101” may start

as soon as spring 2020, and will likely focus more on the internal workings of Littleton’s city government.

“The goal is the same, though: to inform people about the city, and to encourage them to step up and get involved,” Relph said.

The city has allocated $10,000 for the program’s first year, according to city finance director Tiffany Hooten.

The Littleton Leadership Academy was an outgrowth of the Littleton Community Retreat, Thornton said, which she said was the incubator of ideas like the creation of Town Hall Arts Center and the Littleton Immigrant Resources Center, as well as the idea to lower the railroad tracks below Main Street.

“I’m excited to see what the city does with it as we pass the baton to them,” Thornton said. “And I’m excited to see what our graduates do.”

Denver Water rates to be slightly higher in 2020 Customers can expect about a $1 a month increase to their bills STAFF REPORT

Residents will see about a $1 increase in their monthly water bills after the Denver Board of Water Commissioners adopted rate changes to pay for upgrades and projects to keep Denver Water’s system operating efficiently.

The new rates will take effect Jan. 1.

“We continue to move forward on a series of major, multiyear projects to ensure we’re delivering safe, reliable water to our customers,” Denver Water CEO/Manager Jim Lochhead said in a news release. “Our rates will fund important projects like building a new state-of-the-art water treatment plant and laboratory, expanding a key reservoir and the ongoing replacement of aging water pipes. While costs to maintain and upgrade this system continue to rise, we have worked to keep rate increases as small as possible.”

All residential customers will see a slight increase on both the fixed

monthly charge and the price per gallon. Inside Denver, a customer using 103,000 gallons as they did in 2019 would see an overall rise in the monthly bill of about $1, according to the release.

Customers outside the city using that volume would see a monthly increase between $1.15 and $1.36 per month.

Denver Water’s five-year, $1.4 billion capital plan includes about 140 major projects that are focused on maintaining or upgrading infrastructure and ensuring the utility has the flexibility needed to ensure a reliable water supply as weather patterns in the future veer from the past and the population grows, the release said.

According to the release, among the most important projects receiving money from water rates are: a new, state-of-the-art water treatment plant; installing a new 8.5-mile water pipeline to replace a pipeline that was built in the 1930s; expanding Gross Reservoir to provide a more reliable future water supply; constructing a new water quality lab to ensure Denver Water is meeting the highest quality standards; and investing more than $148 million to repair and replace water pipes.

nicorns, princesses and more than a few superheroes paraded through Littleton’s Bemis Library on Oct. 24, before settling in for cookies, punch and Halloween tales.

The annual parade is a chance to mingle with other kids and parents, said Jamie Bartlett, who came with her husband Jacob, son Elliot and daughter Lucy.

“The kids love it, and we (believe) it helps us feel more connected to the community,” Bartlett said.

Bemis Library offers a slew of children’s programming, including daily “Story Box” storytime sessions, and other events like “Paws to Read,” where kids practice reading aloud by sharing a book with a canine friend.

Bemis Library is at 6014 South Datura St. More information is available at littletongov.org.

Second driver sentenced in chase that ended in fatal crash Mario Jose, 25, pleaded guilty to vehicular eluding; gets three years

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The second driver in a police chase that ended with a crash that killed two young people was sentenced to three years in prison on Oct. 21.

Mario Jose, 25, fled from Douglas County deputies in a stolen Jeep in the early hours of Feb. 6, 2019. Deputies were also chasing a stolen Mitsubishi allegedly driven by 20-year-old Deanna Bixby.

Jose The chase ended in tragedy when the Mitsubishi, traveling at up to 100 mph, crashed into a car at Mineral Avenue and Santa Fe Drive, killing Ryan Carter, 27, and Jayne Davicsin, 25.

The Jeep was found abandoned nearby, and Jose was arrested in Denver on Feb. 19.

Jose pleaded guilty to vehicular eluding, according to court records, and was sentenced to three years in prison on Oct. 21, with 245 days credit for time served. In exchange for a guilty plea, prosecutors dropped multiple charges: two counts of felony car theft, two counts of trespassing, violation of bail bond conditions and driving under restraint.

Jose is still facing charges from two unrelated incidents, according to court records. In one, he is charged with vehicular eluding, reckless endangerment and felony menacing.

In another, he pleaded not guilty to a charge of felony drug possession.

Jose’s criminal record includes guilty pleas to assault and car theft.

Bixby is awaiting trial in the Douglas County jail. She pleaded not guilty to a variety of charges, including vehicular homicide and vehicular eluding ending in death. Her case is scheduled for a jury trial in February.

Kirsten Harbeck, a child passenger safety technician, wrestles with a child’s car seat in the back of a Toyota at the Trailmark fire station on Oct. 22. Harbeck helps parents correctly install and use car seats for the South Metro Safety Foundation.

DAVID GILBERT Tuesday, said South Metro spokesman Eric Hurst, and the Colorado Department of Transportation’s website lists dozens more, but even that may not be sufficient for parents who just bought a seat and need to use it right away.

“In a perfect world, everyone would be able to schedule an inspection,” Hurst said.

Other tips: take off kids’ coats, which can create too much play between a child’s body and restraint straps. Also, Harbeck said, many parents are unaware that car seats expire after a few years, when their plastic may become too brittle to effectively withstand a crash.

South Metro hosts car seat inspections at a rotating list of firehouses every Wednesday and every other

firefighters can do on-the-spot inspections after parents sign a waiver of liability, though most firefighters aren’t certified technicians.

“If you’ve got time to schedule with an actual tech, you’ll get a far better education,” Hurst said.

Denver Fire Department, which covers Englewood and Sheridan, does not provide car seat safety checks, according to the City of Denver’s website.

Harbeck’s insights proved reassuring to Rebecca Gitomer, who scheduled a half-hour inspection at South Metro’s Trailmark station on Oct. 22, just a few days before Gitomer’s due date for her first child.

“If I was ever in an accident where my child got hurt, I’d feel horrible if I felt like there was more I could’ve done,” Gitomer said. “This gave me a lot more confidence.”

There are a lot of wrong ways to install a child’s car seat.

Thankfully, there are a lot of folks who know the right way.

“Many, if not most, car seats are installed wrong or could use a touchup,” said Kirsten Harbeck, a child passenger safety technician with the South Metro Safety Foundation, a subsidiary of South Metro Fire Rescue. “The seat might not be tight enough, or the harness might not be snug enough. Some people turn the car seat forward-facing too soon.”

South Metro hosts free car seat inspections at numerous firehouses across their district, Harbeck said, that go over everything a parent needs to know to install and use their car seat safely.

“It’s a pretty robust appointment,” Harbeck said. “And it’s important.

Kids’ lives are at stake here.”

Colorado law requires kids to sit in rear-facing car seats until they’re one year old or 20 pounds, Harbeck said, but best practices recommend staying rear-facing “as long as the car seat allows.”

signed to help the community become better informed about mental health and wellness to better support and heal the community’s youth. It will take place Thursday, Nov. 14 at STEM

The event includes a free panel presentation and resource fair for teachers, school staff/administrators, parents, youth workers, and anyone interested in helping improve the mental wellness of youth.

The panel includes the former president of NAMI Arapahoe/Douglas Counties (National Alliance on Mental Illness), who will present a personal look at parenting a child with mental illness and some signs of her son’s illness that she missed; a psychologist, who will share the facts, statistics and basic biology of mental disorders;

a physician, who will discuss teen substance abuse and the effects on a developing brain; a licensed professional counselor, who will discuss how to identify unhealthy adolescent behaviors and the treatments that are available; and a youth/young adult, who will share her journey with a mental health disorder.

Attendees also will have the opportunity to connect with a variety of mental wellness specialists at the resource fair.

fearmongering. She took issue with the notices saying the hiatus was the result of policy direction from city council. She said council gave no such direction.

Relph said while he made the call to suspend filling vacancies, he was unaware of the notices. Reester, the public works director, said he signed off on the letters and stood by the wording and decision to post them to residents’ doors.

Relph said the city still must complete an analysis of how much

Geneva Village costs the city versus how much it brings in, but he knows the status quo won’t fly much longer.

“What we’re doing is irresponsible,” Relph said. “We’re subsidizing affordable housing at a rate I cannot justify.”

Relph said he is eager to explore the city’s role in facilitating affordable housing, but a policy decision from council will take time to achieve. It will likely come up as the new council takes up a forth-

coming code and zoning revision, he said.

Brinkman said she hopes the next city council, which will be seated in November, works quickly on a plan to address the facility.

“We can’t be winging it every year,” Brinkman said. “The challenge is that we’re dealing with some of our most vulnerable citizens — older and low-income. We’ll never kick old people out on the street. That’s not how we behave in Littleton.”

nock-knock.” “Who’s there?” “Knock-knock.”

“Who’s there?” “Knockknock.” “Who’s there?”

“Philip Glass.”

That joke goes out to my friend and former KVOD host David Rutherford, who thinks Glass is a repetitive stinker.

It was a pleasure and an honor to field your entries in my latest reader participation project: to name a piece of music that means something to you. Responses were heartfelt and eloquent.

One reader, Jim Robie, Ojai, California, named 38 performers and groups who have “kept (him) company throughout the years.”

He chose the Chords’ “Sh-Boom,” a song they wrote and released in 1954.

It was later covered by the CrewCuts. Robie said, “My life has been a

and played the song for him. It thrilled him. The boy died the next day.

Charles Pray, Lone Tree, named Christopher Parkening’s “Chaconne - Violin Partita No. 2.” Pray wrote, “I have listened to this a thousand times.

I have it on both vinyl and CD. I know every skip on vinyl.” (Parkening is a classical guitarist.)

“Why Do Fools Fall in Love?” reminded Susan Josepher, Rancho Palos Verdes, California, of “Dancing, dancing, dancing, and singing along with all of the cheerleaders and varsity basketball players (at Midwood High in Brooklyn) until the wee hours of the morning.”

The Teenagers’ lead singer, Frankie Lymon, was only 14 when the song was recorded. Lymon died of a heroin overdose at age 25.

Sue Williams, Highlands Ranch, said her song “Always, always, always

dream.”

Rob Clarke, Highlands Ranch, wrote, “In April 1965, I was in a barn on a stack of alfalfa bales when I heard `Mr. Tambourine Man’ by the Byrds, QUIET and I was frozen for DESPERATION five minutes afterwards.”

Aurora artist Matt Hendrick picked “Only the Young” by Journey, because, “I miss my youth.

Wisdom is overrated.

I want youth.”

The first person to hear the song Craig Marshall before its release Smith was a small, dying boy who was a big Journey fan. The boy’s mother wrote to the band, and they went to the boy’s hospital room

LETTER TO THE EDITOR The right choices for Littleton Citizens, we have a chance to affect the current city council election by voting for candidates who will respect our wishes for “rational development.”

Who are they? Pam Grove, Bill Schwanitz, Iftin Abshir and Jane Ozga.

Why do we think this? Listening to them in candidate forums, they support our stand on rational development. And, they have no one who donates to them that thinks otherwise.

What about the other candidates? They are all fine people. But most of them have received signifiant donations from members of the Littleton Business Chamber, Littleton Leadership Academy, (LLA), and a Realtor PAC, per the FCPA reports, available at Littletongov.org.

The LBC has said the group was

working with the Littleton Leadership Academy to field potential candidates.

So, what is wrong with that? The LBC has members who own some of our historic downtown.

How do we know that? The ownership part is a fact you can verify in land records. It is also a fact that this group sent out a questionnaire to the candidates including a question about allowed building height in downtown Littleton. I have a copy.

In addition, a Littleton Business Chamber motto is “ We don’t want to see what happens, we want to be what happens.” They want enough control of city councilmembers to be what happens, including in historical downtown Littleton, because some of it is owned by some of them.

alloween is an interesting time of year. It is a time of year where children of all ages get to dress up and have a little fun pretending to be someone or something that they are not.

For some of us, our costumes are WINNING just a slight change WORDS or modification from who we really are, and for others, the costume is such an extreme makeover, no one recognizes who we are at all.

It’s not until the mask is removed and everyone has a good laugh or moment of Michael Norton disbelief.

Halloween is also an interesting time of year because it’s right about now when we realize where we really are when it comes to the achievement of our annual personal and professional goals. It’s a time of year when we might realize that we may not be where we really wanted to be by now.

If we are meeting with and exceeding expectations, we know exactly who we are and what we have achieved.

If we are just a little off, we may still e be wearing the costume or mask, and t c hoping no one notices, or that we can slide under the radar for a while e p longer. I mean it’s Halloween, and before we know it, Thanksgiving will H be here, and then the Hanukkah and c Christmas holidays will lead us right p into the New Year. And now we start n thinking and believing that it’s OK to h p keep the mask on, continue to wear our costume of performance until we H can regroup and start all over again w u in January. After all, when we are wearing our costume, it’s easy to hide, G isn’t it?

Indeed, Halloween is an interesting C A time of year. And it can also be an amazingly fun and energizing time of i year. A time of year when we realize that there is still more than enough time to transform ourselves, and not just by putting on a superhero cape, we have time to make the changes we need and want to make so that we can transform our success.

There is always good news, and the good news is that we still have time to do an analysis of where we succeeded

Colorado will suffer unless Congress halts HIT tax

H

ealth care is hotly debated in Washington, and I’d be willing to bet most people think it’s too expensive.

This is certainly true for Colorado employers — and especially entrepreneur-led companies, which GUEST employ nearly half COLUMN the state’s workforce.

Companies throughout the state strive daily to afford quality health insurance for their 1.1 million employees. But, the return of the Health Insurance Tax could provide a bit hit to Colorado companies Jeff Wadsen — and their workers’ paychecks and benefits.

The Health Insurance Tax — also known as the HIT tax — was an illconsidered part of the Affordable Care Act. It applies a steep levy to every small business health plan. In 2020, the HIT tax will cost about $500 per insured employee. That means a small business with just 10 workers will owe an extra $5,000 if the HIT tax is in effect.

Members of Congress have repeatedly signaled that they understand the harmful effects of raising healthcare costs on small businesses. Several times, our elected leaders have passed legislation suspending the HIT tax, including for 2019. In each case, this has helped prevent sharp premium increases, so small businesses could better afford employee health insurance. Unfortunately, no permanent solution to eliminate the HIT tax has yet been found, and it will automatically reinstate for 2020 unless Congress takes action again.

Fortunately, Colorado’s Sen. Cory Gardner is leading the charge to save Coloradans from this needless tax.

And there is no time to waste in passing another HIT tax delay.

MARSHALL 18.” She wrote: “When I hear it, I am captivated, inspired, and moved with emotion.”

Russ Bond, Centennial: “Ebb Tide”

by Frank Chacksfield.

Timothy Reinig, Lone Tree: Gustav Mahler’s “Adagietto from Symphony No. 5.”

Vern Hansen, Highlands Ranch: Shirley Jones’ version of “You’ll Never Walk Alone.”

Dan LaChance, Highlands Ranch, helped take care of 5-year-old Mackenzie Phillips while the Mamas and the Papas performed at Duffy’s, his hangout on Saint Thomas, in the summer of 1965. LaChance chose “Creeque Alley.”

Health insurance companies are finalizing their 2020 rates and open enrollment starts soon. Unless a HIT delay bill is enacted, the prices small businesses see when shopping for a health plan will include its impacts and owners may be “locked in” to paying these unnecessarily high rates.

Given the gridlock and distractions in our nation’s capital, the fate of the HIT tax has become a nail-biter. Some small business owners are already bracing for increased health plan costs, and others will follow suit if indeed Congress fails them.

Depending on the business, that may mean delaying hiring activity, halting a planned wage increase, putting off a key business investment, or reducing other parts of the benefits package. It could also mean passing on more health-care costs to employees, by selecting a health plan with higher deductible and co-pays or asking for a greater contribution toward the premium out of every worker’s paycheck. No matter how small businesses tighten the belt, their decisions will have a downstream impact on our economy and working families.

At a time when employment is slowing, manufacturing softening, and fear of recession creeping into some consumers’ minds, Colorado cannot afford uncertainty in the small business sector. Only with the HIT tax definitively suspended can we sustain our expansion and drive continued wage growth across the state.

Health insurance is expensive enough without adding more taxes.

The HIT tax has never made sense, and it should not be allowed to harm our small businesses and working families.

and where we failed. Good or bad, we can take the time to understand how we got there and assess our results.

Once we know where we are and how we arrived there, we can better forecast our future and what it will look like if we stay the course of success, or if we don’t make the changes necessary to realize the results that we desire. And when we see how this all comes together, we can create a plan, allowing us to surpass our previous successes and overcome any challenges and barriers to our success.

And just like at Halloween where there is always a Mickey to match Minnie Mouse, and a Mrs. to her Mr. Potato Head, we never have to go it alone when it comes to planning for and achieving success. As a matter of fact, most people and companies who set goals and achieve their goals have the support of a coach, a fam-

ily member, a trusted friend, or an adviser. Now as you think about continuing to surpass your expectations or making the changes in your life so that you can surpass your expectations, think about who you can lean on to help you get there.

So how about you? Are you staying in costume and staying under the radar until January? Are you well past where you want to be and planning for even greater success in the future? Or can you use a little help in making sure you are using the remainder of 2019 to get ready for transformational success in 2020?

As always I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we can celebrate Halloween to have a bunch of fun and to also transform ourselves personally and professionally, it really will be a better than good week.

Planning like

Survivalists offers range of options for uncertain future

BY CASEY VAN DIVIER CVANDIVIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

C

astle Rock resident Kiki Bandilla wanted to live a selfreliant life — the kind of life, as she describes it, in which she could sustain herself without depending on “institutions or grocery stores or medical facilities.”

“We get really upset if our internet is down. We don’t know what to do if we don’t have our car,” she said. “I like knowing how to make these things work. You have to deal with your own emergencies.”

The pursuit brought her to the Self Reliance Expo in Denver about five years ago, and she found herself, reluctantly, walking into unknown territory.

“I was thinking: ‘What is this going to be?’ I had placed a label that ‘selfreliant’ meant conspiracy theorist,” she said. “And I got there and thought it was the coolest thing in the world.

At that point, I developed my own definition of self-reliance.”

Fast-forward to 2019, and Bandilla is a well-known figure in the Colorado survivalist community, having purchased the expo in 2017 and transformed it into the National SelfReliance Project. Through the project, Bandilla encourages thousands to learn more about emergency preparedness, survival skills and living a simpler lifestyle.

That lifestyle has attracted all kinds of people, Bandilla said, but it’s also been known to attract a good deal of negative attention.

“People who don’t understand think these are the crazies stockpiling for the end of the world,” she said. “We need to throw away the labels. The people in this world are smart, normal people who have just taken different steps to protect themselves.”

Ready for ‘the bad times’ Survivalists and preppers are ready for everyday emergencies: blizzards, fires or even just a wrong turn on a hiking trip.

But make no mistake — many of them are also ready for a solar flare that takes out the electrical grid or a bioterrorism attack resulting in a nationwide pandemic.

“There could be all kinds of disasters: a meteor hit, a super volcano, a massive earthquake,” said Drew Miller, a prepper from the Denver area. “What you really need is a group. You’ve got to be able to protect yourself.”

Miller owns Fortitude Ranch, a survival community at which members can vacation during what he calls “the good times” and go for protection in “the bad

LIFE

TIPS FROM THE EXPERTS When an emergency hits, everyone should have some level of prepper knowledge to see them through, said Kiki Bandilla with the National Self-Reliance Project.

Here are some of the top tips from preppers and survivalists: “The first rule of prepping is: don’t tell anyone you’re a prepper. The most important thing is that, whatever supplies you have, they’re no good if you can’t protect yourself.” — Drew Miller, Fortitude Ranch “Our bodies are comprised of 50-70% water; one simply cannot survive without it. Learn how to build a charcoal filtering system, and purchase a variety of filtration straws and purification pills in advance.”

— Linda Cearley, Mile High Prepper “You can’t do this overnight; it’s a process. There’s so much information out there and great how-to videos, and there’s no better learning than doing a hands-on training. When we have the next selfreliance expo, come to our expo.”

— Kiki Bandilla, National Self-Reliance Project and Expo times,” when a crisis hits. The ranch has locations in both West Virginia and Colorado, the latter of which opened six years ago.

Miller estimates the Colorado ranch, located in the mountains next to the Pike and San Isabel National Forests, has about 70 members, with many of them former members of the military, he said.

He added that for every veteran at the ranch, there’s also a businessman or businesswoman simply trying to be prepared.

Bandilla

Drew Miller, owner of Fortitude Ranch — a survival community to provide safety in an emergency — stands outside the ranch. The Colorado sites border San Isabel and Pike National Forests, he said.

COURTESY OF DREW MILLER likewise sees a range of people attracted to the project and expo, especially baby boomers and millennials, with young people accounting for her fastest-

growing demographic.

“They’re born into this world where everything is so fast. It’s finding that balance,” she said.

Come out into the sunlight — with Claude Monet DAM shows works of French impressionist who changed art world through long career

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A life-sized photo of a pleasantlooking man surrounded by flowers welcomes the visitor at the entrance to Denver Art Museum’s “Claude Monet: The Truth of Nature,” the major exhibit of more than 100 paintings by the French impressionist that opened Oct. 21 and will remain through the holidays until Feb. 2.

Clearly a don’t-miss for art lovers, this is an exhibit with works painted in many locations (Monet loved to travel) and in a palette that is bright and light — even in a snowy scene in wintry Norway. It speaks to anyone who can see it.

Monet loved any and all flowers and eventually designed and planted his own extensive garden at Giverny in northern France, the locale for many of those lovely paintings of water lilies we associate with him.

But this exhibit, organized with the new Museum Barberini, in Potsdam, Germany, also includes glimpses of the countryside, as well as towns, across Europe, such as “The Strada Romana at Bordighera,” 1884.

“Claude Monet: the Truth of Nature” follows a long, successful and prolific career, from Monet’s first painting to be exhibited, at 18 — “View from Rouelles,” 1858 — to the darker “The House Seen Through the Roses,” 1926. Most are sunny, but he also loved fog, and the collection of works depicting London convey that love, especially well.

Angelica Daneo, chief curator and curator of European Art before 1900, worked with DAM director Christoph Heinrich and the Barberini’s director, Ortrud Westheider, to assemble the works exhibited on the second floor of the Denver Art Museum.

Claude Monet was drawn to art before he reached his teen years and at 16, was mentored by Eugene Boudin and exhibited professionally while he studied. It was a time of change and resistance to it in the European art scene.

Paintings exhibited at the Denver Art Museum come from museums across the world, starting with the early “A View From Rouelles,” loaned

by Maruma Art Park in Japan, which urged that a work by his mentor, Boudin, also be shown. Loans from many sources include “Haystacks, Snow Effect” from the Shelburn Museum; “House Seen Through the Roses,” from the collection of the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam; Museu de Arte de Sao Paulo Assis Chateaubriand (“House of the Customs Officer” 1882) and “Path in the Wheat Fields,” 1882, from the Denver Arts Museum’s treasured half-dozen Monet paintings, bequeathed by Frederic C. Hamilton. This will be the only showing in the United States.

As the exhibit’s title suggests,

IF YOU GO “Claude Monet: The Truth of Nature” is exhibited at the Denver Art Museum through Feb. 2, 2020. Timed tickets cost an extra amount above regular entry fees.

See denverartmuseum.org or call 720-8655000 for information.

A man listens to the audio tour, stopping at the first known painting by Monet. The Monet exhibit features works from the artist’s entire career.

Angelica Daneo, the chief curator at the Denver Art Museum, speaks at a press event before the opening of Claude Monet: The Truth of Nature. Daneo and a team from the museum, as well as from Museum Barberini in Germany, helped to select the pieces by Monet for the exhibit.

PHOTOS BY KAILYN LAMB

Monet, throughout his life, was tuned into the many moods and versions of nature and constantly sought out new experiences — in the garden, at the seaside, on country roads and in small towns and larger cities. How does the sunlight frame that old homestead today? Or that grove of trees or expanse of lilies? How does light filter through leaves — or reflect off surf at the sea’s edge?

Think, as you stroll slowly through the galleries, about the skill the painter exhibited in his choices of color and texture, the blending of brushstrokes, rendering of light and shadow … One can almost summon up sounds and scents with a focus on a given scene.

The installation of the Claude Monet paintings is greatly enhanced, I think, by the choice of deep, intense colors for the gallery walls: burgundy, deep blue, intense green …

The background color makes even a small, subtle painting pop! The viewer should understand how daring his approach to painting was in 19th-century

Europe.

“Throughout his career, Monet was indefatigable in his exploration of the different moods of nature, seeking to capture the spirit of a certain place and translating its truth onto the canvas,” Daneo commented.

The exhibit shows Monet’s eventual focus on certain subjects, such as haystacks, water lilies, bridges — as well as the eventual lack of humans in the scenes.

Through intense planning and precise choice of planting materials, Monet, an expert gardener, created the surroundings he wanted at Giverny and translated them to canvas in his later years, working with as many as seven gardeners at one point.

The exhibit fills three large galleries — about 20,000 square feet — and invites leisurely strolling and turns for repeat visits to some works where a connection seems apparent. A visitor should allow time to stop, sit, stare and return to that garden again … which may be difficult, because

tickets are selling out and there will be more people than would be ideal for a relaxed visit. Be sure to line up a ticket before you go — it’s sold out for the next few weeks!

In the spring, the exhibit will travel to the Museum Barberini. A large, colorful catalogue is available at the Denver Art Museum shop.

Film fest takes audiences to new places Denver event also honors late artistic director

BY CLARKE READER SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

At its core, film is an expression of people’s lives, and as such, it stands to reason film festivals would mirror this fact. And for more than two decades, the Denver Film Festival was at least partly an expression of Denver Film’s artistic director, Michael Brittin “Brit” Withey.

The 50-year-old was killed in a one-car accident on March 31 and so it’s fitting that the 42nd Denver Film Festival begins with a tribute to the man and just some of the movies he loved.

“Brit was a mentor to me, so I’ve been working with others in his stead on this year’s festival,” said Matthew Campbell, interim artistic director. “We spent the last year trying to put together something really special. Something to honor Brit’s legacy and something for everyone, regardless of what their tastes are.”

The festival kicks off on Wednesday, Oct. 30 and runs through Sun-

day, Nov. 10 at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House, 14th and Curtis Street, UA Denver Pavilions, 500 16th St. and SIE Film Center, 2510 E. Colfax Ave. The Festival Annex will again be set up at the McNichols Civic Center Building, 144 W. Colfax Ave. During the festival’s run more than 250 films will be screened, including local, national and international works. There will also be industry panels, achievement awards, tributes, as well as an International Focus on Brazilian Cinema.

“We have some great red carpets with some movies that will be discussed well into award season,” said Festival Director and Interim Executive Director Britta Erickson.

“The body of program is super strong, with films from more than 40 countries.”

Rian Johnson’s “Knives Out,” featuring a knock-out cast that includes Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Toni Collette, LaKeith Stanfield and Jamie Lee Curtis, is one of four red carpet special events, with Johnson in attendance to receive the 2019 John Cassavetes Award on Thursday, Oct. 31.

Other notable films that will be screened include Trey Edward Shults’ award-worthy “Waves,” Noah Baumbach’s “Marriage Story”

IF YOU GO WHAT: 42nd Denver Film Festival WHEN: Wednesday, Oct. 30 through Sunday, Nov. 10 WHERE: Ellie Caulkins Opera House 14th and Curtis Street UA Denver Pavilions 500 16th St. SIE Film Center 2510 E. Colfax Ave Festival Annex McNichols Civic Center Building 144 W. Colfax Ave. TICKETS: www.denverfilm.org and Mark Cousins’ 14-hour documentary, “Women Make Film.”

As in previous years, the Festival Annex has become the place to be for people who want a more interactive experience. The annex will play host to panel discussions; virtual reality, interactive and immersive experiences; High School Day; community engagement; and a Festival Lounge for the public.

A popular returning feature is the 60-minute “Fire Escape,” which can include up to 15 people at a time.

In the experience, eight building tenants are entangled in a murder and participants need to solve the case. And then there is “Arden’s Wake: Tide’s Fall,” a virtual reality experience that takes place in

a post-apocalyptic world, where a young woman lives with her father in a lighthouse at the edge of an endless sea.

“Creatives are doing some really exciting things with VR experiences,” said Campbell. “We’re bringing these different types of storytelling and new technological forms to Denver audience. A lot of them are brand new, and there’s no other way to experience them.”

Creating an experience is really what makes attending a film festival a unique experience. For many of these films, particularly shorts and international films, this may be the only chance to see them on a big screen. Both Campbell and Erickson encourage attendees to be bold and adventurous when selecting films or themes to explore and then attend a panel or discuss the films you check out.

“What’s important in experiencing a film festival is taking chances.

Read through the guide, pick things that feel heartfelt to you and things that connect with you,” Erickson said. “You may not love everything you see, but you have to dive in. We want you to have a dialogue about what you see, because you get more out of the experience when you interact with your fellow audience members.”

SURVIVAL FROM PAGE 14

How to get started It’s easy for those in the Denver area to learn more, Bandilla said, with the expo planning a date for 2020 and no shortage of resources available online, from full-blown websites to Facebook groups and pages.

Meeker, Colorado, resident Linda Cearley runs one of those Facebook pages, @milehighprepper, having been inspired to share tips and news with anyone looking to bolster his or her survival skills, she said.

“Most of my followers come from both cities and rural areas,” she said. “More questions on how to get started originate from the potential preppers within cities. Questions generally surround how much food or water should one set aside to survive, and what should be included in a bug-out bag.”

Experts like Cearley and Miller suggest everyone keep a bug-out bag, or portable survival kit, in their car, stocked with water, non-perishable foods, matches, flashlights, batteries, a blanket and warm clothing.

Meanwhile, for those who don’t know if they’re cut out for survivalism, there’s Miller’s ranch, which “outsources” preparedness by providing trained staff who plan to address every need during an emergency, he said. “All you’ve got to do is get here and follow instructions,” he said.

Inside the Colorado-based Fortitude Ranch, which is meant to provide protection in “the bad times” and a vacation spot in “the good times,” Miller said.

COURTESY OF DREW MILLER Whether the plan is to team up with the ranch members or execute survival strategies from home, “everyone should be prepared,” Miller said.

Cearley agreed.

“The reality is that being educated and prepared will save your life,” Cearley said. “Worst-case scenario of stockpiling: You have lots of items ready to use.”

NATIONAL SELF-RELIANCE PROJECT The National Self-Reliance Project runs the Self Reliance Expo, which holds hands-on demonstrations of techniques and products to teach attendees about preparedness, survival, sustainability and a simple lifestyle.

Owner Kiki Bandilla has not set a date or place for the 2020 Colorado expo, but those interested in attending can sign up for the newsletter to receive information as it comes out, she said.

Evening of Hope raises BET ON TASTE more than $80,000 Wings of Hope for Pancreatic Cancer Research enjoys most successful event yet

Featuring whole Maine lobster served nightly, along with all-you-can-eat crab legs and USDA prime rib.

STAFF REPORT

Wings of Hope for Pancreatic Cancer Research had its most successful event yet, raising more than $80,000 for ongoing research at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center on the Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora.

“This was our biggest and most successful benefit to date and we are enormously grateful to everyone who not only attended but gave so generously to fund the pancreatic cancer research at the University of Colorado Cancer Center,” Maureen Shul, executive director of Wings of Hope, said in a news release.

This year’s seventh annual Evening of Hope, the signature fundraiser for the growing foundation, was Sept.

28 at the Glenmoor Country Club in Cherry Hills Village. More than 300 people, the largest crowd to at-

tend An Evening of Hope, filled the courtyard on a fall evening for drinks and appetizers before enjoying an evening of survival and medical breakthrough.

“This was such a special evening with three courageous survivors sharing their stories and four of the most renowned physicians when it comes to pancreatic cancer sharing the research and treatment progress being made at the CU Cancer Center, Anschutz Medical Campus,” Shul said in the release.

Speakers included renowned physicians and grant recipients Dr. Wells Messersmith, Dr. Marco Del Chiaro, Dr. Sana Karam and Dr. Richard Schulick, director of the CU Cancer Center, whose ongoing and critical cutting-edge work is funded in large part by the year-round efforts of Wings of Hope.

“It was incredibly moving for me to see so many wonderful people come together to support this effort,” said Shul, who founded Wings of Hope in 2012 after losing two of her family members to the disease.

An Evening of Hope 2019 also boasted a live charity auction by Libby Pollack and a speech by blind golf champion Jeremy Poincenot.

SPORTS STUDENT-ATHLETE STUDENT ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT

Volleyball player rarely lets up Q&A with Bouck Who is your favorite athlete and why?

My brother Thatcher. He was a rower in college (Santa Clara) and my parents were rowers too. He played lacrosse at Littleton. When I would go to his college and he would talk about rowing and how nervous he would get and how close he was to everyone in his boat, that was inspiring for me to see.

What is your favorite class in school and why?

History. I’m not a big math or science person because I like to argue things. I like to go back and forth, and history is more subjective

Addie Bouck’s sports success is just one part of busy life

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A

ddie Bouck, a senior at Littleton High School, is a busy young woman who is adept with time management.

It takes a minute or so for her to list all the activities and clubs in which she participates.

She plays volleyball on the Lions’ varsity, she is on the speech and debate team, a National Honor Society member, works in public relations for the National Honor Society, is in the International Bacalauerate program and is involved with a couple new clubs at Littleton.

“I’m in a lot,” she admitted. “I had older brothers and going into high school, I would look at their yearbooks and said: `What is high school? I’m scared.’

“But this looks so exciting and I’m going to be on every page and do everything and try everything... I like to do everything because I like to meet people.

So it’s worth it, not having a lot of free time.”

Bouck, a middle blocker, didn’t start playing volleyball until her sophomore year.

“I hope I have improved,” she said.

“Volleyball is such a mental sport. The more I’m able to forget about the mistakes and keep going is something than can transfer into life.”

COACH’S TAKE: ‘She’s a natural leader and drives our team for success, and the girls feed off that energy. You can tell she’s just that way throughout life in school by how many people know her and come to say hi and come to the games. She’s really made the improvement and jumped quickly as a volleyball player..’

Jessica Encinias, Littleton volleyball coach

What do you like to do away from sports and school?

When do have free time, I’m spending it with my friends hanging out, because I don’t have much free time.

What are your plans after high school?

College and hopefully, club volleyball.

What is the toughest thing about being a middle blocker?

I’m not the fastest person out there so I feel like getting there is hard for me.

Which is more fun, a successful spike or a block?

It is really satisfying to get a hit that goes straight to the ground. You know that there was a perfect pass. I feel like blocking is more exciting.

What is your favorite movie?

“Surf ’s Up.” Both my brothers also loved it and we would always watch it in our minivan on the way to school. With this movie, we were all collective in that it is great.

Have a suggestion for whom to feature in Student-Athlete Spotlight?

Email Jim Benton at jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Key stats | After 28 sets played, Bouck had 39 kills and led the team with 39 blocks with 14 digs, three assists and two aces

Nerves are on edge as 5A soccer playoffs begin

F

irst-round games in the Class 5A state soccer playoffs begin on Oct. 31, which is a day for haunted attractions to scare people.

Well, some soccer coaches are scared, too, as they fear that the preparations made prior to the playoffs may not be enough to face the tough competition.

Like any other sport, injuries play a role in a team’s readiness.

Recent playoff experience could help teams, and tough non-league OVERTIME schedules could be beneficial.

However, coaches still worry about if their teams are prepared.

“To be honest, in the playoffs everything is Jim Benton possible,” said Cherry Creek coach Wilmer Barrera. “Right now my job is putting everything down. We have to try to concentrate regardless of who is in front and focus on what we want to accomplish. You need to concentrate. The team that stays focused is the team that wins.”

Castle View coach Mark Burfeind has a few ways to prepare his team for playoff matches.

“We start a strength and conditioning program that starts in June,” explained Burfeind. “The high school season is long and very demanding with a lot of games in a short amount of time.

Castle View’s non-league schedule has also been a key component.

“The last component is to manage each player’s workload and recovery. With this many games, we schedule recovery days so we do not overwork our players and they are fresh as we start the playoffs.”

Anthony Romano of top-ranked Legacy emphasizes balance.

“Training sessions have a tendency to change,” he said.

“There is a fine line between too much and too little. Psychology comes in making sure the players are excited and not looking past an opponent. You have to have a balance between being calm and excited.”

And what about defense, since you always hear that defense wins championships?

Sprout, Stewart, Arapahoe girls claim crowns South metro schools finish strong at state cross country meet

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Cole Sprout, Riley Stewart and the Arapahoe girls team were the big winners Oct. 26 at the Class 5A state cross country meet at the Norris Penrose Events Center in Colorado Springs.

Sprout, a Valor Christian senior, won his third straight state championship and second consecutive 5A title with another state record time. Stewart, a Cherry Creek sophomore, was a wire-to-wire individual winner. And the Arapahoe girls were the surprise champions of Class 5A. It would have been more noteworthy if Sprout had not won since he has dominated races the past three seasons, but he was once again the best runner in the class as he broke his own state record with a new standard of 15:12.7.

“The first half of the race was pretty controlled,” said Sprout, who was the 4A champion in 2017. “I got out pretty quick and felt good the first mile. The second half after those couple hills, I felt good. It was pretty gritty. It definitely hurt but I pushed it aside and finished strong.

Valor Christian senior Cole Sprout won his third state title on Oct. 26 at the CHSAA state cross country championships held at the Norris Penrose Events Center in Colorado Springs. He broke the state record he set last year with a time of 15:12.7 in a wire-to-wire victory.

“Yeah, the state record was definitely on my mind and you never know how a race is going to unfold. The race went kind of how I imagined it in my mind. I’m gritty as a runner. I have a good tempo. When I feel like I’m hurting, I don’t feel like slowing down.”

Stewart, fifth a year ago, led the 5A title race by 11 seconds at the mile marker and never let up with a winning time of 18:12.3, which was more than 12 seconds ahead of runner-up Cameron McConnell of Cherokee

Arapahoe won the 5A girls state cross country championship on Oct. 26 at the Norris Penrose Events Center in Colorado Springs. The Warriors finished with 69 points while second place Cherry Creek came in with 99 points.

Like Sprout, she didn’t have a close competitor in the race.

“I feel like I ran pretty well,” Stewart said. “ I felt really super strong going into the last mile, and I just wanted to push myself all the way to the line. In all the races, I just try to push myself.”

Arapahoe girls coach Jeff Krause

Colorado Community Media, a full service media company is looking to add to our team.

had to push himself to find words to describe the Warriors’ championship.

“I can’t even fine the words for what they did,” said Krause. “They did everything we asked. I was honestly in shock. They ran the perfect race. I knew it was going to be tough to beat teams like Creek, Cherokee Trail and SEE CROWNS, P39

“In soccer it’s a combination of both defense and offense,” added Barrera.

“You can defend well but if you don’t score it’s tough to win. Defense is so important but in soccer you have to have goals.”

If recent playoff appearances are important, there are many teams that have played state tournament matches during the past three years.

Those teams are defending champion Arapahoe, Rock Canyon, Castle View, Cherry Creek, Legacy, Grandview and Ralston Valley.

And overall, Broomfield has won seven state titles followed by six by Arapahoe and Cherry Creek. Broomfield’s last title was in 2017, Arapahoe last season and Creek in 2010.

First-round games in the 4A playoffs began Oct. 30.

Rosengarten gets his jersey Valor Christian lineman Roger Rosengarten was honored at the school with a press conference on Oct. 21 by the All-American Bowl and was presented his All-American jersey.

Rosengarten, who has verbally committed to play at the University of Washington, is the only Colorado athlete selected to play in the annual East vs. West All-American game on Jan. 4, 2020 in the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas.

Honor roll Each week, south metro athletes

are selected for the honor roll, and athletes and teams were chosen for performances in games, matches and meets between Oct. 17 and Oct. 24.

Sophomore Cyrus Gulati scored the only goal of the match in overtime as Cherry Creek’s boys soccer team downed Arapahoe 1-0 on Oct. 22.

Senior Blake Rarog rushed for 201 yards and four touchdowns to help Legend’s football team whip Douglas County, 42-0, on Oct. 18.

Ben Beecher, a senior at Ponderosa who is the leading tackler in the 4A Metro League, was in on 14 total tackles, had one sack and two quarterback hurries in the Mustangs’ 42-7 football victory over Gateway on Oct. 17.

Eden McNally had a double and two home runs and finished with six runs batted in as Valor Christian downed Cherry Creek, 10-4, in an Oct. 19 regional softball playoff game.

ThunderRidge senior quarterback Brent Huber accounted for four touchdowns when he passed for 155 yards and rushed for 65 in a 30-6 football win over Rock Canyon on Oct. 18.

Senior Sebastian Garnica scored on a penalty kick in the final 25 seconds to give Littleton a 3-2 soccer victory over Green Mountain on Oct. 22 that assured the Lions of getting one of the two automatic state playoff berths from the 4A Jeffco League. Jorge Aguilar scored the first two goals for Littleton.
