Brauchler drops governor bid, jumps into attorney general race District attorney moves to replace Cynthia Coffman STAFF REPORT

Citing the bowing out of state Attorney General Cynthia Coffman from the race to keep her seat, Republican George Brauchler announced his switch from the 2018 race for governor to vie for the attorney general spot.

Brauchler, district attorney for the 18th Judicial District, has positioned himself, so far, as the only conservative in the race to replace Coffman, a Republican, in the November 2018 election.

“Progressives on the other side of the political aisle had spent many months raising mountains of cash to capture the position that plays such a vital role in protecting our state

and way of life,” Brauchler said in an emailed statement.

Brauchler presently faces five opponents, all Democrats, according to filings with the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office: Michael Dougherty, the assistant district attorney for the 1st Judicial District, which includes Jefferson and Gilpin counties; Brad Brauchler Levin, an attorney in Denver; Amy Padden, former assistant Colorado attorney general and former executive assistant United States attorney for the District of Colorado; state Rep. Joe Salazar, a civil rights attorney from Thornton; and Philip Weiser, former deputy assistant attorney general in the Obama administration.

Referencing concern from friends,

supporters and members of the business community about the possibility of a progressive, activist attorney general, Brauchler said the office is “a powerful position that must not fall into the hands of someone who would use it to advance extreme ideological positions, to legislate through litigation or to pick winners and losers in our economy.”

Brauchler’s Nov. 13 annoucement came less than a week after Coffman announced her bid for governor Nov. 8.

Brauchler was elected district attorney in 2012 and re-elected after running unopposed in 2016. The 18th Judicial District encompasses Arapahoe, Douglas, Elbert and Lincoln counties.

He gained nationwide recognition for prosecuting the case against Aurora theater shooter James Holmes, calling the case “the biggest trial in

the history of the state.”

Brauchler has lived in Colorado for 45 years, currently residing in Parker with his wife and four children. He attended the University of Colorado, Boulder, and later graduated from the University of Colorado School of Law. He is a colonel in the Colorado Army National Guard.

Brauchler on April 5 had announced his candidacy for governor.

He said Gov. John Hickenlooper has showed a “lack of real leadership at the state level.” Brauchler said he wants tougher sentences for violent criminals.

During his run for governor, Brauchler said he would push for stronger minimum sentences for DUI and homicide offenders.

Coffman enters a gubernatorial race that has more than 20 candidates seeking to replace John Hickenlooper, a term-limited Democrat.

MY NAME IS

WILMA SISBARRO

Wilma Sisbarro is a cautious driver when she’s not burning rubber at Bandimere Speedway, but she still loves to have some power under the hood.

Grandmother, drag racer

About me I’m a retired housewife who’s been living in Colorado for 16 years. I have one child who’s 43, and three grandkids.

I’m from Maryland — I used to work for a newspaper, and three times a week I would actually go pick up physical copy from a newspaper in Brooklyn and drive it back to Maryland.

Sometimes I’d be sitting there at 2 in the morning in Brooklyn, and it was scary because there were always people roaming the streets no matter the time.

When I got divorced, I reconnected with a guy I worked with who had moved to Colorado, and we married a year later in Las Vegas.

DAVID GILBERT

We went to the Tropicana and got hitched in their little chapel.

I love Colorado — it doesn’t matter if it’s snowing, people are still running around in shorts.

Hot rod grandmama I drag race at Bandimere — I’ve been doing that for about 13 years now. I drive a 1969 Dodge Coronet. My husband was already into it when we married and he

kept trying to get me behind the wheel. I finally gave it a shot and I loved it.

We’re in a car club and we meet once or twice a month, and compete against other car clubs.

The first time I did it, I was pretty nervous, but I thought, how bad can it be? You just go straight. It’s about your reaction time with the light.

You’ve got to predict your expected time as closely as possible. I get up to around a hundred miles an hour.

Some women have tried it out and aren’t such a fan, but I love the fun and excitement.

It’s helped me be more comfortable with things that I thought were scary.

Off the track, I never speed, and I never get traffic tickets.

I obey the rules. When I leave the drag strip, though, after the race, when I’m merging onto C-470, I really want to put the hammer down.

Normally I drive a Dodge Durango — it’s not a race car, but I like a big ol’ 8-cylinder engine under the hood.

Academy participants learn to save lives

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

They’ve got tourniquets and they know how to use them.

More than two dozen attendees of the Littleton Police Department’s Citizens’ Academy wrapped up their final class learning how to apply tourniquets to bleeding wounds, as part of a Department of Homeland Security program called Stop the Bleed, which aims to train ordinary citizens how to respond to traumatic injuries before emergency personnel arrive.

“Given recent events, such as the shootings in Las Vegas, Texas, or even the Walmart in Thornton, the next progression for our profession is looking at how to equip the community to deal with these types of casualties,” Littleton Police Chief Doug Stephens said.

The Citizens’ Academy is a free 10-week course held twice a year by the Littleton Police Department that introduces civilians to various aspects of police procedures, from investigation techniques to firearm and K-9 demonstrations.

Kathy Houston, left, cranks down a tourniquet on paramedic firefighter Ryan Rock. Houston, who used to manage the blood bank at Children’s Hospital, said the tourniquet technique was old hat to her. “I think a lot more people need to know how to do this, and to take the Citizens’ Academy,” Houston said.

Newcomers sweep council election Incumbents fall short; nine candidates vied for four seats

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A contentious Littleton City Council election that largely centered on how candidates would approach growth and development ended with two incumbents voted out and all four contested seats won by newcomers to government.

A slate of candidates that drew endorsements from business leaders, real estate groups and the firefighters’ union won big Nov. 7, with Patrick Driscoll winning the District 1 seat occupied by Bill Hopping, who decided not to run for re-election. Kyle Schlachter and Karina Elrod, both members of the LIFT urban renewal board, took the two at-large seats up for grabs.

A slate of candidates associated with

the Sunshine community activist group had less success. Carol Fey won handily over District 3 incumbent Phil Cernanec. But longtime Councilmember Doug Clark lost his re-election bid for an at-large seat, and Carol Brzeczek lost her at-large bid. Kama Suddath, who appeared at community forums alongside Sunshineassociated candidates in the campaign’s final Fey weeks, lost to Driscoll in District 1.

Steven Esses, the only candidate not associated with a slate, finished a distant third behind Fey and Cernanec in District 3.

The new council will be sworn in at the Nov. 21 Elrod meeting.

After the election, as before, the big issues on the minds of candidates were growth, roads and traffic.

“I’ve done a lot of listening to citi-

zens, and I want to keep up that positive energy,” Schlachter said. “That’ll kickstart the visioning process that we need to revamp the comprehensive plan. If we have a solid, modern comprehensive plan, that’ll help us improve zoning and allow us to craft intentional plans for our light rail stations, areas around them, and key corridors.”

Elrod spoke more generSchlachter ally about her start on council.

“There will be priorities we set as a council, a budget that will again be under review and plans that must be set into motion,” Elrod said in an email. “My goal is to firm Driscoll these up quickly and follow through on executing on them.”

Driscoll said his first orders of business in District 1 will be to address Columbine Square, a long-abandoned

Ballot issues let city keep revenue, raise base for future

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Two ballot issues centered on how to deal with City of Littleton revenue collection passed by wide margins, according to unofficial results.

Ballot Issue 2C allows the city to keep $1.9 million in excess revenue, earmarked for road repair and upgrades, while 2D ratchets up the base for future revenue collection.

Issue 2C passed with 78.6 percent of the vote while 2D passed with 65.9 percent, according to unofficial results published by the Colorado Secretary of State’s office.

“That’s a pretty significant margin,” said Littleton City

Manager Mark Relph. “Rarely do I see that. The margin is so significant that It’ll make things a lot more manageable as we look at providing services in the long run, so we can plan more effectively. The margin also shows the level of trust between the community and the city organization.”

The city’s ability to collect money is constrained by the 1992 Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights, or TABOR amendment. The law sets a cap on the money the city can take in, calculated by a formula of the city’s 1992 revenues plus adjustments for inflation in the Consumer Price Index and the increase in population. Any revenue collected in excess of the cap

must be refunded to taxpayers, unless voters approve a waiver of the refund.

Littleton’s TABOR cap in 2016 was $67 million, but a high amount of impact fees and building use taxes, which are one-time payments related to new development, allowed the city to collect more than $69 million, creating a surplus of $1,937,904.

Ballot Issue 2C allows the city to keep the excess revenue, which is earmarked for two projects: $1,392,904 will go to pavement improvements on residential streets, and $545,000 will go to intersection safety upgrades to the intersection of Bowles Avenue and Federal Boulevard.

The extra revenue will increase the length of streets due to be resurfaced from 3.4 miles to seven miles. The intersection project will focus on improving traffic movement, alignment and pedestrian safety.

The ballot measure took on greater weight as the city’s capital projects fund, which pays for road improvement projects, is dwindling in the face of declining gasoline tax and use tax collection.

Ballot Measure 2D addressed the city’s revenue collection cap, and allows the city to ratchet up the base for revenue collection to the city’s 2016 numbers, thus restarting the clock on employing the

TABOR-imposed formula.

The city’s costs have increased faster than the TABOR formula anticipated, Littleton Finance Director Tiffany Hooten said in an October interview, with construction and raw materials costs climbing faster than consumer goods and inflation.

“The capital projects fund is still a problem,” Relph said. “The TABOR vote might help councils in the future a little bit, but we have a deep issue we’ll have to talk to the council and the community about. Expectations are high on maintaining public facilities and infrastructure. We’re still going to struggle with that.”

South Suburban ballot measures pass by large margin Parks district to extend tax collection indefinitely, take out fresh loans

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Voters said yes in the Nov. 7 election to a pair of measures that will allow South Suburban Parks and Recreation District to both maintain their current tax collection indefinitely, and to take

out fresh loans to pursue the district’s growth goals.

Ballot Issue 4B, which extends the district’s current tax structure indefinitely, passed with about 79 percent of the vote. Ballot Issue 4C, which allows the district to take out fresh loans, garnered just under 70 percent of the vote.

“All in all, it’s a win-win for residents and the district,” South Suburban Executive Director Rob Hanna said in a news release. “We’re excited to plan for the future and move forward on projects related to sustainability and trail connections, as well as facility enhancements. We are very grateful to

have earned the trust of our residents.”

South Suburban is largely funded by property tax revenue, collected through two mill levies, approved in 2010 and 2014.

Residents of the district pay 1.163 mills toward the district’s existing debt, meaning the owner of a $300,000 home pays about $15.50 a month to maintain and improve the district’s four recreation centers, four outdoor pools, four golf courses, nearly 100 miles of trails, more than 100 parks and 2,500 acres of open space.

Ballot Issue 4B indefinitely extends the district’s two property tax mill levies. Ballot Issue 4C allows the district to borrow more money to increase its debt

to $46.86 million, with a repayment cost of up to $61.66 million.

The debt would go toward meeting a variety of needs, according to a news release, including repairing and improving existing parks, recreation facilities and playgrounds, replacing outdated mechanical equipment with new energy saving systems, replacing inefficient irrigation systems and maintaining natural areas and open space.

South Suburban serves Littleton, Lone Tree, Sheridan, Bow Mar, Columbine Valley, much of Centennial and some unincorporated areas of Arapahoe, Douglas and Jefferson counties.

Veterans saluted at Fort Logan ceremony Speeches, ‘Taps’ among ways those in uniform were honored on Veterans Day

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Mother Nature provided a backdrop of clear skies and warm sunshine Nov. 11 as about 500 people attended the 40th ceremony marking Veterans Day at Fort Logan National Cemetery.

It is the first time in three years the ceremony was held inside Verle Huffman Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 9644 in Sheridan.

The ceremony was held to celebrate the service, sacrifice and enduring achievement of almost 22 million living Americans who are serving or have served our nation in uniform.

The event followed the traditional format. There were speeches, the ceremonial placing of a wreath at a symbolic head stone, the 21-gun salute and the playing of “Taps.”

Those attending the ceremony included many veterans who wore symbols of their service including caps and vests, military members in uniform as well as a number of young people in uniform as members of the Colorado Wing of the Civil Air Patrol formed the honor guard presenting the colors at the opening of the ceremony and performed other tasks.

Also, members of the Mountain View

Walter Ohmart, who served in the Navy in World War II, visits the resting place of family and friends before attending the Veterans Day ceremonies held Nov. 11 at Fort Logan National Cemetery. He said he always tried to visit to the graves of friend, comrades and family on Veterans Day to honor them for their service.

PHOTOS BY TOM MUNDS Young Marines were handing out programs.

Marsha Perkins wiped tears away as “Taps” played.

“I lost my husband in Korea,” the Arapahoe County resident said. “I always come here for Veterans Day and I always cry when the play Taps.”

Many veterans attended the event.

LITTLETON PUBLIC SCHOOLS

“I come every year to Fort Logan often and always try to get here on Veterans Day,” Walter Ohmart, a World War II veteran, said as he stood among the headstones. “I come to visit my parents who are buried here and some of my buddies who are buried here.

I always come to visit the grave of a long-time friend and neighbor who served in World War II. On every visit, I made sure to give him a salute.”

Friends Bill Day and Nick Weidle, both Vietnam veterans, were at the event.

Day, a pastor, said he thanks God for those who served our country. He said throughout our history those in uniform and their families made the sacrifices that are part of military service because they love their country.

“Vietnam wasn’t a good time in our history and it wasn’t good for us when we came home,” the visitor from Arizona said. “I am pleased it is so different today as our men and women who are serving now are welcomed home.”

A number of members of the Canadian military services stationed

at Buckley Air Force Base in Aurora attended the ceremonies in uniform.

“We came to honor veterans like we would if we were at home,” Canadian Warrant Officer Tyler Schulze said. “Today is Remembrance Day in Canada, the only day set aside to honor veterans.”

The rifle salute was fired by the All Veterans Honor Guard. The honor guard is made up of veterans who volunteer to provide the rifle salute at military funerals as well as at ceremonies like Veterans Day. “I am just another veteran honor guard volunteer,” Vietnam veteran Ed Kursey said. “I was in the post honor guard when we lived in Pennsylvania.

We moved here four years ago and I joined Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1 in Denver. They were asking for volunteers for the honor guard. My wife said that was something I should do, so here I am. Being in the honor guard is very special. I feel I am honoring veterans every time we are called to be in uniform whether it is for a military funeral or at a ceremony like this on Veterans Day.”

Littleton resident fatally shoots man he says broke into home, police say

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A Littleton man shot an apparent intruder in his home about 4:30 p.m. Nov. 10, near the 6200 block of South Spotswood Street, according to the Littleton Police Department.

Police said Philip Donovan, a 33-year-old off-duty Denver police officer, was asleep in his basement when he heard a sound in the home above him. He reportedly went to investigate and encountered a man between in the basement stairwell. The resident shot the intruder, 53-year-old Kerry Dean Hughes, who was transported to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Donovan has not been charged with a crime, though the investigation is ongoing, said Littleton Police Chief Doug Stephens said.

“From the looks of it, this was a classic case of the ‘Make My Day’ law,” Stephens said, referring to the law that allows citizens to use deadly force if they believe their lives are in danger.

A Littleton man shot an alleged intruder near the 6200 block of S. Spotswood Street around 4:30 p.m. on Nov. 10.

Local businesses on list of best places to work Outdoor Magazine cites four local companies for work-life balance STAFF REPORT

WhippleWood CPAs, Pax8, Polar Field Services Inc. and Zen Planner have been listed among the top places to work by Outside Magazine, a national publication dedicated to covering everything outdoors.

Not only are companies listed as great places to work, but they respect the environment and encourage a balance between work and enjoying life in the great outdoors. This is Outside’s 10th year providing the Best Places to Work list.

Placing at number 4, WhippleWood CPAs provides accounting, business consulting and tax services.

The Littleton-based company gives its employees 16 days of paid time off after one year. It also gives Hero Awards to staff members who give 110 percent; winners receive $110.

Employees are encouraged to use the on-site Zen Room and attend “board” meetings — firm-wide breaks to ride longboards in parking lots. This year, WhippleWood closed the office to race go-karts during tax season.

Sixth-place Pax8 is a B2B cloud services distributor based in Greenwood Village. After one year, employees get unlimited paid time off. Every other week, employees vote on which new local brews should be stocked in the three-tap kegerator.

Polar Field Services Inc., in Littleton, employs global logistics and operations experts. In addition to the 12 days of paid time off after one year, employees work flex hours to allow exercise during work hours. Each day, the office participates in organized stretching exercises, and the office has a garden on-site. Polar Field is listed in 36th place.

Highlands Ranch-based Zen Planner comes in at number 63. The company provides management software for the fitness industry. After one year, employees get 18 days of paid time off. Weekly on-site fitness classes include yoga, pull-up progression workshop and bootcamp, all taught by team members. Dogs are welcome in the office every day.

A sabbatical program encourages team members to dream big and live large.

“Companies from across the country entered a rigorous two-part survey process to make the winning list,” said Jonah Ogles, articles editor at Outside Magazine. “The Best Companies Group evaluates each nominated company’s workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics.

There’s also an employee survey to measure personal experience.”

Former Lone Tree mayor seeks place in Congress Jim Gunning announces his run for House District 4 position

BY TABATHA DEANS STEWART TSTEWART@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Former Lone Tree Mayor Jim Gunning announced he is seeking the Republican nomination for Colorado’s 4th Congressional District seat, in a gathering of more than 50 people in front of the Freedom Keeper monument on Wilcox Street in Castle Rock on Nov. 10.

“America is incredibly divided, and we need to look for leadership to bring us back together,” said Gunning, who is aiming to Gunning be the GOP nominee for the post in the November 2018 election.

Supporters applauded Gunning as he declared his intentions to advocate on the behalf of 4th District residents.

“Nuclear issues demand toughness.

At home we have a drug crisis that needs addressed, and Congress must find a solution to health care,” he said.

“We won’t compromise our children’s future for political gain today.”

District 4 includes Parker, Lone Tree, Castle Rock, Elbert County,

Jim Gunning speaks to a crowd of supporters in Castle Rock, as he announces he will be seeking the Republican nomination for the 4th Congressional District. The two-term Lone Tree mayor said “The government should work for us, not rule us.”

TABATHA STEWART much of Colorado’s Eastern Plains, and areas north of the Denver metro area. The sprawling district borders Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma and New Mexico, and its 38,103-square-mile area covers more than a third of Colorado. It has been represented since January 2015 by Republican Ken Buck, of Windsor, who is in his second term.

Gunning served two terms as the mayor of Lone Tree, where he has lived for 20 years, and said keeping in touch with residents is vital for any successful official.

“When I was mayor of Lone Tree, citizen input made the difference in determining action and priorities.

Government should serve us, not rule us,” he said.

Gunning served in the Air Force for nearly 20 years, both on active duty and in the reserves.

He served on the Lone Tree City Council before being elected twice as mayor.

At his candidacy announcement, Gunning was joined by his wife of more than 30 years, Amy; son Alex, 28; and daughter Paige, 22.

E-470 freezes toll rates for up to three years STAFF REPORT

CALM AFTER THE STORM

A toll adjustment announced Nov. 9 by the E-470 Board of Directors would freeze toll rates for ExpressToll drivers through 2020. That means ExpressToll users driving the 47-mile roadway can lock in the rates they are paying today, according to the board.

Additionally, the toll rate on E-470 between I-70 and Peña Boulevard (Toll Plaza C) will be reduced by 25 cents to align the toll pricing with demand in the area and further ease congestion on the neighboring roadways.

ExpressToll customers on E-470 now pay $1.25 to access the roadway via the tolled on- and off-ramps and $2.70 to $2.95 per toll plaza.

With the toll adjustment, License Plate Tolls will be adjusted to cover the higher cost of collections associated with that option.

“It takes a large amount of resources and manpower to maintain the cameras, look up each license plate, cross reference the plate with the state DMV for verification, send out printed bills and continue to collect on those tolls,” said Tim Stewart, E-470 executive director.

SM

Stewart is excited about passing savings on and rewarding new and existing ExpressToll customers.

“This should incentivize drivers to sign up for an ExpressToll account to benefit from the huge savings,” he said.

The ExpressToll and license plate adjustments will go into effect Jan. 1.

E-470 is the 75-mph toll running along the eastern perimeter of the Denver metropolitan area. E-470 is a user-financed roadway, receiving no local, state or federal funds for financing, construction, operations or maintenance.

E-470 is a political subdivision of the state governed by the E-470 Public Highway Authority Board, which includes eight local governments — Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties — and the municipalities of Parker, Thornton, Aurora, Brighton and Commerce City.

E-470 also operates ExpressToll, the all-electronic toll collection system available on E-470, Northwest Parkway and Colorado’s Express Lanes.

Emergency rooms are where many patients are first introduced to powerful opioid painkillers, but what if doctors offered over-the-counter pills instead? A new study tested that approach on patients with broken bones and sprains and found pain relievers sold as Tylenol and Motrin worked as well as opioids at reducing severe pain.

The results challenge common ER practice for treating short-term, severe pain and could prompt changes that would help prevent new patients from becoming addicted.

The study has limitations: It only looked at short-term pain relief in the emergency room and researchers didn’t evaluate how patients managed their pain after leaving the hospital.

But given the scope of the U.S. opioid epidemic — more than 2 million Americans are addicted to opioid painkillers or heroin — experts say any dent in the problem could be meaningful.

Results were published Nov. 7 in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Long-term opioid use often begins with a prescription painkiller for shortterm pain, and use of these drugs in the ER has risen in recent years.

Previous studies have shown opioids were prescribed in nearly one-third of ER visits and about 1 out of 5 ER patients are sent home with opioid prescriptions.

“Preventing new patients from becoming addicted to opioids may have a greater effect on the opioid epidemic than providing sustained treatment to patients already addicted,” Dr. Demetrios Kyriacou, an emergency medicine specialist at Northwestern University, wrote in an accompanying editorial.

The study involved 411 adults treated in two emergency rooms at Montefiore Medical Center in New York City. Their injuries included leg and arm fractures or sprains.

All were given acetaminophen, the main ingredient in Tylenol, plus either ibuprofen, the main ingredient in Motrin, or one of three opioids: oxycodone, hydrocodone or codeine.

They were given standard doses and were not told which drug combo they received. Patients rated their pain levels before taking the medicine and two hours later.

COUNCIL FROM PAGE 5

beautifying downtown.

“I also definitely want to start meeting with city employees,” Driscoll said. “I want to work on their behalf and let them know they’ll be heard.

That’s been lacking on the prior city council.”

Fey also cited a desire to change the culture on council.

“My number one hope is to get a spirit of unified city government and citizenry.

It seemed to me as a citizen that the council has spent an inordinate amount of time infighting. They seemed to be very up front about not agreeing and avoiding getting things done.”

Fey said she wants to prioritize taxpayer money for road repair and ensure citizen input in development projects.

Candidates who didn’t make the cut said life goes on.

“My life will stay the same as it was,” said Brzeczek, who has spearheaded local initiatives against the city’s urban renewal authority. “I want to see urban renewal abolished, neighborhoods protected with good zoning, and a public decision on a possible fire department merger.”

Phil Cernanec, the city’s former mayor, said he’ll look

for other ways to serve the community.

“I’m a Rotarian, and the Rotary Club is involved with the community pretty closely,” Cernanec said. “I expect I’ll be involved with senior issues and business issues as well.

I’m interested what happens with transportation.”

Cernanec said while the election didn’t go his way, he gave it his best.

“I felt good about what we had to offer,” he said. “I felt we ran an honest campaign and had a high level of integrity.”

Clark, who has served on council four times in the past 20 years, said the campaign was a swirl of issues.

“The fire union was flexing their muscles,” Clark said.

“The Realtors and business people are still agitating for urban renewal.”

Neither Clark nor Cernanec would rule out running for public office in the future.

Esses, a softball coach retired from a career in public health, said he was encouraged by the support he got, even without a big team or donations.

“Right now I’m just glad I got through it,” Esses said.

“I’m glad I participated and made a difference in people’s thoughts.”

Suddath did not respond to requests for comment by press time.

CCU hosts rally to support Lakewood baker Case of refusal to make cake for same-sex wedding will go before Supreme Court

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Despite being at the center of a freedom-vs.-rights cultural flashpoint that incites passion on both sides, Jack Philips, owner of Masterpiece Cake in Lakewood, has a lot of people on his side.

State Sen. Kevin Lundberg, R-Estes Park, Senate Majority Leader Chris Holbert, R-Parker, and Colorado Christian University President Donald Sweeting were among those who spoke at a rally in support of Philips, “their friend and neighbor,” at CCU’s event center on Nov. 8.

“It has been five years of court battles,” Philips told the more than 75 friends, family members, supporters, and students who attended the event, which was called a religious freedom rally. “If you want a free Colorado and America, no one should be forced to say or do something they don’t believe.”

Philips has been part of the passionate debate over religious freedom and equal rights since 2012, when he declined to make a custom wedding cake for same-sex couple Charlie Craig and David Mullins’ wedding, citing his religious beliefs.

The couple filed a complaint with the Colorado Civil Rights Commission stating that Philips violated the state’s public accommodations law that specifically prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation.

The commission ruled against Phillips, and the appeals court upheld the decision.

In his decision, Judge Daniel Taubman said Masterpiece is free to continue to share its religious beliefs — including not recognizing same-sex marriage.

Jack Philips, owner of Lakewood’s Masterpiece Bakery, meets with supporters before a rally held to support him before his Supreme Court case in December.

CLARKE READER “However, if it wishes to operate as a public accommodation and conduct business within the State of Colorado, (Colorado law) prohibits it from picking and choosing customers based on their sexual orientation,” Taubman wrote.

In September, the Department of Justice filed a brief on behalf of Phillips, agreeing with his argument that his cakes are a form of artistic expression and he can’t be forced to make something that would be contrary to his beliefs.

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear the case, and oral arguments will start on Dec. 5.

Philips’ case is one of several happening around the country where business people have cited religious freedom as a reason to not provide certain services to members of the LGBT community.

Kentucky’s Hands On Originals, Telescope Media Group in Minnesota, and Arlene’s Flowers in Washington state are all dealing with similar situations, and all three owners spoke at Philips’ rally.

“I refused to make shirts for a pride parade, but I’ve declined plenty of projects because I don’t agree with them, including shirts that say homosexuality is a sin,” said Blaine Adamson, owner of Hands On Originals, a promotional printing company. “We all find ourselves at a crossroads, and you have to do what you know is right.”

The rally was organized by The Centennial Institute, a department within Colorado Christian that focuses on bringing attention to issues regarding, “faith, family and freedom.”

The Institute does research and sponsors seminars and conferences to share information. The Institute invited Evangelical Christian speakers, but also Larry Smith, President and CEO of Catholic Charities, Steven T. Collis, a Mormon attorney and author, and Rabbi Yaakov Menken, managing director of the Coalition for Jewish Values.

“In our current environment, only people of faith are called bigots,” Menken said. “The people suing Jack aren’t victims of discrimination, but practitioners of the craft.”

Sweeting and other speakers connected Philips’ struggle to those of the pilgrims and founders, who came to America for religious freedom, and who wrote freedom of speech, religion, and conscience into the Constitution.

“The stakes have never been higher for religious freedom,” Sweeting added. “Our nation has always stood for freedom of conscience.”

The rally ended with Jeff Hunt, director of the Centennial Institute, leading a prayer and a laying of hands on Philips to support him when he goes to the Supreme Court.

“We’re just here to support our friend, Jack,” said Duane Brigman, executive pastor at Centennial’s Crosspoint Community Church. “This is a critically important decision for all Americans, regardless of which side you fall on.”

It doesn’t matter what you say when what you say doesn’t matter QUIET DESPERATION

Craig Marshall Smith

J

ennifer went shopping on her own, and picked up everything we needed for a wonderful homemade meal, including something called a “salad kit.”

A salad kit comes in a clear bag, so you can see what’s in it. What’s in it is washed and chopped lettuce, and a number of washed and chopped vegetables, and a small plastic sleeve filled with dressing.

All you have to do is empty the

salad on the plates.

Of course, you pay for the convenience. The vegetables, purchased separately, would cost half as much. But the vegetables would take far longer to wash and chop, and aren’t we all in a hurry?

“Edna. Where is he going with this one?”

“I wish I knew, Merle.”

Which brings me to an expression. It simplifies everything, just like a salad kit. It is inclusive, which saves you the trouble of a

full, vivid explanation.

Here it comes.

Do you have a “go-to” restaurant?

Do you have a “go-to” sweater, or a “go-to” purse?

If you have been around the block with me, you already know how I feel about shortcuts when it comes to this blessed plot, this realm, this English.

Ixnay glib acronyms, is what I say. Ixnay truncations.

When someone says “go-to,”

sure, it saves words, but the art of conversation is reduced to a sleeve of Honey Mustard.

I can’t track down the expression’s etymology anywhere. So I am going to blame it on New York City. That’s where a lot of these expressions get their start.

The first time I heard “in a New York minute,” I thought it was clever.

Now? Not so much.

Keep an eye on what’s important in retirement

A publication of

morning and collecting my thoughts for this column I remembered a story I had once been told.

There was a young boy who would walk with his fishing pole, tackle box, and a large bucket. When asked why he was bringing such a large bucket, the young boy would optimistically and enthusiastically said that one day he had caught so many fish, but sadly he didn’t have a big enough bucket to carry the fish home. And he promised himself that he would never let that happen again.

Most days he came home with an empty pail or one or two fish, and a little downhearted, but day after day, he could be found walk-

lately have turned from numbers to feelings.

In the last 30 years of preparing people for retirement, the trend has shifted from “Will I have enough money?” to “Will I have enough time?”

This sounds strange at first, since the money question is normal, but don’t you have more time than ever in retirement? And time for what? You fill in the blank. Enough time to find purpose again. Enough time to make an impact, to pass on knowledge, a

legacy, to share ideas. Enough time to get things in order to pass along, to spend meaningful time with family and friends or just to do the things you always dreamed of.

No matter what resources you need in retirement — time, money, knowledge, health or activities, it will work out best if you plan for it.

That’s right, retirement planning is not just about money. Yes, it is important to have a nest egg and a source of income, but more and more, people

are seeking purpose. Will they be able to create, improve, teach, help or care for someone? These ideas may take a different view of resources and what they are meant to provide. Money, after all, is just a tool to get you the things you want and need. If you adjust your wants and needs to match your resources, you can focus on the fun things.

Many retirees find their regular

ing enthusiastically with the same bucket, fishing pole and tackle box and when asked he would energetically respond with, “This will be the day that I catch enough fish to fill this big bucket.” You see, he had tasted success before and wanted to experience it again. He planned and prepared for success, even though he had days where he fell short of his goal, not even catching one fish at all.

Was it a trophy we won in our youth? Maybe a job promotion? A diploma? Did we complete a project that we were recognized for? Was it something we did in our everyday role that we found extremely rewarding?

Somewhere along the way, we caught so many fish we couldn’t fill our bucket.

We tasted success and we knew what we did to achieve that success. It probably included planning, preparing and expecting to win. So today, right now, right in this very moment, each and every one of us has the ability to succeed as we pursue our worthy goals.

And remember that Earl Nightingale defines success this way, “Success is the progressive realization of a wordthy goal or ideal.”

Back to our fishing story. On one side of the lake we have the young optimistic boy and his large bucket.

On the other side of the lake we have a man catching fish and only keeping the small fish, throwing all of the larger fish back into the lake. When a confused fellow fishing enthusiast questioned the man throwing back

needs have changed and they like to have something of interest to replace that need with. Maybe they are down to one or two cars — instead of three or four. Maybe they find they don’t use all the things they have stored for 30 years and those can be used to provide for someone else. Maybe they have books or memoirs that can help educate others. There are many ways retirees can be challenging themselves. And this often changes the focus to more pleasant alternatives than worrying about the next stock market event.

The baby boomers will be the most educated generation to retire. This is also a group of people who grew up with investing. Therefore, the idea of their money working for them when they are not, is not foreign. Our financial advisors don’t spend as much time working on explaining the time value of money as they do about mapping out a strategy to attain holistic goals.

the larger fish, the fisherman reached into his backpack and displayed a very small frying pan.

He shared that he couldn’t keep the larger fish because he was only prepared to catch and cook the smaller fish.

I am confident that you have connected the dots here. As we plan and prepare for future success, we need to keep our success bucket available. We need to plan, prepare, and expect to win. We need to know that there will be some days where we get shut out, meet with setbacks, and we need to remind ourselves that failure is an event, and it doesn’t define who we are as a person.

We need to remind ourselves that if we expect little wins, that is what we will achieve.

Now little wins are OK, they do add up over time. However, if we are planning for future success, a bigger job, a larger home, a significant role in our community or church, a substantial change in our earnings or income, whatever that big success looks like in our future, let’s make sure we are carrying our success bucket with us as we travel to fish in all of the ponds, lakes and oceans of our life.

How about you? Can you build upon your successes of yesterday? Are you properly positioned to succeed today?

Are you planning, preparing, and expecting to win tomorrow? I would really love to hear all of our community success stories at gotonorton@gmail. com and when our success bucket is ready to be filled, it really will be a better than good week.

And neither is “not so much.”

Don’t get me wrong. If I were on an airplane and we were headed into a mountain, I would truncate all over the place.

Have you ever had a disagreement with someone that ended when he said or she said, “Whatever”?

Don’t try that around me. It’s very dismissive.

Americans keep it simple. The English, on the other hand, value words. I admit that I can’t always understand what they are saying, but it sure sounds eloquent.

Whenever I watch a film that features English actors, I turn on the closed caption feature. It’s a must.

“Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government,” comes from Monty Python, and until I read the caption it sounded like something being said backwards.

It’s called “phonetic reversal.” David Lynch experimented with it in “Twin Peaks.”

You can also find it in “Amadeus.”

Mozart says a number of phonetically reversed phrases, and many of them are vulgar.

There’s a woman who works at my grocery store who says, “Have a good one, hon,” to every man, woman, and child she sees.

Doesn’t she know? Doesn’t she know that there are a million and one things she could say?

“Only in the agony of parting do we look into the depths of love.” (George Eliot) “The pain of parting is nothing to the joy of meeting again.” (Charles Dickens) “What’s so good about good-bye?”

(Smokey Robinson and the Miracles) If she started to say things like that, I would shop there twice a day.

“Have a good one, Honey Mustard.”

Even that is an improvement.

Get into the holiday spirit with music, food

Theatrical options for the holiday season The Arvada Center is celebrating the holiday season with a classic family story, “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.”

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

he holidays mean something different to everyone, but if there’s one thing that most can agree on, it is that they should be spent with the people who mean the most to us.

And as far as activities go for the holidays, few are better than sharing the community and thrill of live theater.

“The holidays are the time of year when people are busiest, so it’s really special that they make time to be together at the theater,” said Josh Hartwell, a playwright

and actor who has written two holiday shows this season — one at Lakewood’s The Edge Theater and Golden’s Miners Alley Playhouse. “It makes you feel closer to the people you care about when you make time to do things with them.”

This time of year, theater-goers have a variety of options to select from — more traditional to dark comedies and shows that highlight holiday themes, like “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,” which is playing at the Arvada Center. “’Joseph’ is a great family-oriented show, with some wonderful

messages,” said Stephen Day, who plays Jacob and Potiphar in the show. “There’s powerful moments of redemption, and a great exploration of family dynamics.”

The musical brings together all kinds of genres, from pop and country to rock. Which means there’s something for everyone to enjoy in the show, said Sarah Rex, the narrator in “Joseph.”

Another show that embraces the theme of the season is “Seussical,” which is plays at Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center. The show is an amalgamation of several of Dr. SEE THEATER, P17

espite all the shoppers big box stores see on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving wasn’t allt hat special for Angelo Coiro, owner of Angelo’s CDs and More.

But when Record Store Day started making exclusive releases on Black Friday, everything changed.

“It’s been a big helpto use, and we do triple what we used to on that Friday,” he said. “Suddenly, Black Friday is relevent to us again.”

During the Record Store Day Black Friday event, independent record COMING like all three ATTRACTIONS stores of Angelo’s locations, Twist and Shout, Black and Read, Wax Trax, and others will be opening at much more reasonable hours (usually around 8 a.m. or so) to sell limited versions of unique releases on vinyl, Clarke Reader tapes and CDs. Some items sure to go first include a 7-inch single of “Baby It’s Cold Outside” by local favorites Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats, Neil Young’s “Harvest Moon” on two LPs, and Gorillaz’s latest album, “Humanz,” on two LP picture discs.

“We have donuts and other treats for the first people who arrive, and there will be live music at some locations,” Coiro added. “There are also sales and specials we’ll have going all weekend.”

Go to www.recordstoreday.com to find the record nearest you, compile your wishlist, and make a plan for the day.

An album listening party at a movie theater Denver-based Vinyl Me, Please, a record-of-the-month club where subscribers are sent one record each month, has been growing by leaps and bounds since it was first created in 2013.

To coincide with the release of its album of the month, the company started The Spins, listening parties where people can party while checking out the album.

For November, Vinyl Me, Please, selected St. Vincent’s latest album, “Masseducation,” and to celebrate, are hosting a listening party at the BarFly, located in Sloan Lake’s new Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, 4255 W. Colfax Ave. Beginning at 6 p.m. on Nov. 17, the event will feature a mixology class, SEE READER, P17

Seuss’ most popular stories, including “Horton Hears a Who,” “The Cat in the Hat,” “The One-Feathered Tail of Miss Gertrude McFuzz” and “Horton Hatches an Egg.” “Christmas and the end-of-year holiday celebrations are all about family, and there is a long-time tradition of families sharing certain productions together, passing the experience on to new generations to share,” said Bob Wells, director of the show. “’A Christmas Carol’ and ‘The Nutcracker’ are the champions, and I hope ‘Seussical,’ with its story, music, dance, sets and costumes, will become part of the merry tradition.”

Those looking for more off kilter fare can check out “The SantaLand Diaries” at The Jones at the Denver Center for Performing, based on David Sedaris’ experiences from his stint as a Macy’s elf in New York City, and the world premiere of “Resolutions,” written by Hartwell and directed by Missy Moore at The Edge.

“We have a relationship with our members where we say, ‘Here is this thing that was really moving to us and we actually spend a lot of time writing about it … and we’d love for you to give it a listen,’ “ explained Tyler Barstow, one of the founders of the company, in an interview from earlier this year. “Our goal is to illuminate and shed some light on where this album comes from, because there are so many albums that aren’t just another pop record or another rap record or another indie rock record.”

of a Quentin Tarantino holiday show. It’s something unlike everything else out there.”

The show is about three middleaged couples who meet up after the holidays at a cabin in Vail. Each year their social event includes exchanging white elephant gifts, making their resolutions for the upcoming year and, of course, some drinking. But as relationships change, so does the event.

“It’s a black comedy, but it has

some grimness, too,” Hartwell added.

For the traditionalists, the Denver Center for the Performing Arts’ production of “A Christmas Carol” is a perennial favorite, and hard to top.

But for a more personal approach, Hartwell adapted Charles Dickens’ classic for Miners Alley in Golden.

His version follows six local actors who challenge each other to bring Dickens’ classic to life as

swiftly and simply as possible. This allows for a blending of the classic elements of the fable to mix with modern sensibilities.

“The journey is so interesting, and I think Scrooge is more complex than people realize,” said Jim Hunt, who plays the miser in the production. “People who come to our show are going to see something fresh and new. In the end, it’s about family and coziness, and that fits with the holiday season.”

A musical Thanksgiving tradition On Thanksgiving Day 1976, The Band — the musical group responsible for classics like “The Weight” and “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down” — played its final concert at San Francisco’s Winterland Ballroom, with visits from rock royalty like Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Joni Mitchell and more.

The ensuing film, directed by Martin Scorsese, and live album have gone down as one of the best live recordings in rock history.

In 2005, Polytoxic, a jam band based in Denver, came up with the idea of reenacting the movie on stage to highlight the quality of area musicians.

That first concert on May 25 included 16 guest musicians and a four-piece horn section, and sold out in minutes.

So the group decided to hold a repeat performance the night before Thanksgiving — and they’ve been doing it ever since.

Now in its 13th year, The Last Waltz Revisited will be on Friday, Nov. 17, at the Boulder Theater, 2032 14th St., and on Nov. 22 (the night before Thanksgiving) at the Fillmore Auditorium, 1510 N. Clarkson St. The show will feature more than 50 musicians and a full horn section, all from the Denver music scene.

Liturgical calendar plays a role in arc of poems Stephanie Harper’s book covers works she created from 2012-14

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Stephanie Harper of Littleon has recently published her first book of poetry, “Sermon Series.”

What We Are “We are all water.

We are cells and vapor.

We are the earth, the sky, the heat at the center, and the cold in faraway reaches, the ones that lie in darkness.

We are made of stars.”

— Stephanie Harper Local poet Stephanie Harper, who has just published her first book of poetry, “Sermon Series,” says the poems were written in 20122014, in response to sermons and worship experiences, “organized sort of chronologically … (related to) the trajectory of the Lutheran liturgical calendar.” Sections are: “Expecta-

! now come drive the BEST

tion, Epiphanies and Expression.”

She also speaks of response to growing up in Colorado, with experiences in the natural world — which came through clearly to this reader. (See above example.) And she speaks of influences from parents, aunts and uncles.

Her dad is a Colorado native.

Harper, a Littleton resident, is a graduate of Dakota Ridge High School who received her bachelor’s degree in English from the University of Colorado in 2009 and an MFA in creative writing from Fairfield University in Connecticut in 2012. Describing her graduate study experience as “a good set-up for writing,” she says she focused on fiction for her degree, and worked with a “local residency,” which allowed her to spend time mostly in Colorado. Her major focus was on fiction.

Clearly involved in the rhythms of her poetry is a love of singing. “Music is a big hobby.” She sings at her church, Abiding Hope Lutheran, and elsewhere, and has “dabbled” with songwriting-lyrics. “I’m not instrumentally proficient.”

Harper is a freelance editor and writer who works at home, with a particular fondness for editing manuscripts for authors, for publication or self-publication. She also works with academic copy on websites.

Days are filled with “writing, thinking, editing …” Currently working on a personal memoir and “trying to create a novel,” she likes to set a goal of 1,000 words a day for her own work, although she says she’s “not huge on goals, putting pressure on myself …” The memoir deals with health issues — for four years, she has had an ongoing headache.

With family nearby, she is involved with babysitting, her sisters’ husky and other draws, as well as her own creative process and editing jobs.

She has participated in an authors’ event at the Book Bar in Denver’s lively Berkley area (44th and Tennyson) and the book is available from Amazon or her publisher, Finishing Line Press in Georgetown, Kentucky.

She’s hoping for opportunities of involvement in workshops and readings.

Member FDIC

Lanny York admits he quickly gained a lot of knowledge about chickens when he decided to found Project Poultry in February as a way to help improve the quality of life for poor families in Northern Honduras.

“About all I knew about chickens was they were good to eat but I knew nothing about how to raise chickens until we started this program,” the Parker business owner said. “It was a steep learning curve but fortunately the Hondurans who worked with us on the project knew all about raising chickens and were patient in educating me.”

York stressed the program is designed to be a hand up not a hand out.

“Volunteers build the 12-foot-by-8foot chicken coop and provide 10 hens and a rooster as brood stock,” he said.

“That is the helping hand part because the family has to provide all the wood needed for the coop and signs a contract that once they have the chicken, they will work to feed and take care of them so the flock will grow.”

A hen typically lays about an egg a day. About half the eggs are fertilized and the family agrees to not to eat or sell any of the fertilized eggs for the first six months so they will hatch and grow the size of the flock. After six months, the family is in business.

They can sell or eat eggs and sell or eat some of the chickens. Also, at the end of six months, the family returns five adult hens to the program.

“I learned a hen can begin laying eggs when it is 4 1/2 months old. The eggs that hatch help grow the flock,” he said. “Most of the 10 families that began the program in February with 11 chickens had 25 to 30 chickens in their flock in September.”

When he decided to start the program in the mountains around the village of San Antonio de Cortes, he enlisted the assistance of local chicken business owner Pedro Sortososa and the local city government.

“Fortunately Pedro was willing to educate me about raising chickens and the mayor and local officials were willing to help me identify the most needy families that would benefit from the program,” he said. “Pedro works with us to set up the project for the family, then he manages the program by visiting families in the program once a week to assist them if they need help and to make sure they are doing all that is needed to keep the chickens healthy and the flock growing.”

York, 62, said he first went to Honduras almost five years ago to work with International Hope Builders, a Christian organization building houses out of Styrofoam blocks for families living in extreme poverty in the northern mountains.

Chickens provided a poor family in the mountains of Honduras by Project Poultry explore their new coop home.

Project Poultry was established by Parker businessman Lanny York as a means to help families improve their quality of life.

“Providing a house for a family was fine but it didn’t help them shake off the chains of poverty,” he said.

“About a year ago, working with local Hondurans, I established Hand Up International. Our first project offered to a helping hand by creating a scholarship program so children and young people could receive a solid education. In February, we started Project Poultry by providing a family with a chicken flock. The idea is for the new chicken owners to work hard at building the size of the flock so they can feed the family or launch a chicken and egg business.”

York was born in Indiana, raised in Southern California and attended Point Loma Nazarene College in San Diego, where he majored in business with a minor in ministry.

“We eventually moved to the Denver area in 1974 to follow my call to the ministry and my passion for missions so I could join the staff at Denver First Church of the Nazarene in Englewood,” he said. “I was on staff until June 1990. I went into business and continued to pursue my passion for ministry and missions as an individual, which led me in 2005 to join International Home Builders.

I started my own mission ministry, Operation Hand Up International, in 2014, which is sustained by only by grants and donations. We work with and are affiliated with Christ’s Hands In Action, a non-denominational evangelical outreach organization enabling missions. ” He and his wife live in Aurora. They have three grown children and nine grandchildren. York is president and senior owner of Mountain States Payment Network in Parker. His firm sells, owns and services automated teller machines for business throughout the metro area.

He said he plans to continue the scholarship project and Project Poultry, plus, in September, he started Project Plant, which helps poor families plant and tend vegetable gardens.

Group aims to boost Coloradans’ mental health STAFF REPORT

Colorado routinely make tshe list as one of the physically healthiest states in the union, but a new effort by the organization Mental Health Colorado strives to make Colorado the mentally healthiest state too.

The group’s president, former Colorado state Rep. Andrew Romanoff, said the new data dashboard that just launched on the group’s website offers Coloradans a chance to see where they stand in terms of mental health and substance abuse disorders.

“Previously you would have had to go to several dozen sources to get all this information,” said Romanoff.

The dashboard — available at www.mentalhealthcolorado.org/ dashboard/ — presents information including suicide rates and prevention, mental health issues, opioid overdose rates and even barriers to care. The information is sortable by county, and links to the source documents.

The results are middling. Colorado continues to rank below average for psychiatric beds per captia, and has a persistently higher rate of drug and alcohol addiction, along with a higher suicide rate.

“We’re also below the national

“She hid those symptoms really well, even from us. If she had any other condition, a bump, a lump, she wouldn’t have hid it from us, and we wouldn’t have hesitated to get her care.”

Andrew Romanoff former Colorado state representative

average for funding on treatment,” Romanoff said.

Mental Health Colorado’s intent in putting out the dashboard is to reduce the stigma and increase public awareness of mental health disorders, including substance abuse disorders like those caused by the opiate epidemic. A second goal, according to Romanoff, is to hopefully “accelerate a solution” by inspiring and empowering the public, mental health organizations and government at all levels into action.

Last week Eagle County voters

passed a marijuana tax measure by a nearly 3-1 margin, generating $1.2 million in new mental health funding.

“We’re trying to show that if you treat mental illness you can save lives,” said Romanoff.

In a press statement, Mental Health Colorado Research Director, Dr. Sarah Davidon said, “Our data dashboard will assess mental health and substance use issues facing children, adolescents, and adults in Colorado to inform policy decisions.”

The group estimates more than one million Coloradans experience a mental health or substance use disorder each year. Fewer than half get treatment.

Romanoff says the cause of improving mental health is personal for him. A cousin committed suicide on New Years Day in 2015 after struggling with mental illness.

“She hid those symptoms really well, even from us,” Romanoff said.

“If she had any other condition, a bump, a lump, she wouldn’t have hid it from us, and we wouldn’t have hesitated to get her care.”

The dashboard is not without its limitations. Romanoff acknowledges that some of the studies used to compile the data are not done annually, and some rely on self reporting. Overall, he said the size of Colorado’s mental health needs are probably only conservatively reflected in the dashboard figures.

Beyond the data, the website includes a tab for individuals looking for ways to connect to local officials to advocate for change, and also a tab for people to share their personal stories of struggling with mental health — both things that Romanoff says the group hopes will spark real change for the better.

Book sale kicks off season with treasured titles Event at library in Littleton lasts five days; cash or check required

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Throughout the year, Sue McNamee and her Friends of the Littleton Library/Museum Book Sale Committee save some special books that come in as donations — save them for the annual FOL/M Holiday Book Sale, which starts Nov. 18 and runs through Dec. 23 at Bemis Public Library, 6014 S. Datura St., Littleton.

She says that in addition to these special books, “there will be thousands of books covering a wide array of topics.”

The selection of books on the tables on the first floor at Bemis are updated daily — so shop early and often!

Some bibliophiles, as well as ordinary shoppers, seek leather-bound editions of classics: “Huckleberry Finn”

by Mark Twain, for example.

Also books by Charles Dick-

The Friends of the Littleton Library/Museum will have thousands of interesting titles available at their annual holiday sale, starting Nov. 18 at Bemis Library.

COURTESY PHOTO ens, a copy of “Wuthering Heights” and one of “Madame Bovary,” are available, among others.

Some visitors seek out autographed-by-the-author copies, or first editions — also

to be found at Bemis.

Generally available: multiple categories including: poetry, Christmas and other holiday books, cookbooks, knitting and other craft books (big selection), interior

decorating, photography, art, travel, science and animals, sports, biography and autobiography, history from all periods, children’s and young adult titles, Colorado books and religious and inspiration-

al titles and more …

Important: Note that purchases must be by cash or check — no credit or debit cards. Volunteers will be available to help with sales much of the time.

Or purchases can be made through the circulation desk.

For information, see the Friends of the Library and Museum Facebook page or the website: friendsofthelibraryandmuseum.org or call Bemis Library: 303-795-3961.

The FOL/M Used Book Sale is maintained all through the year, with hundreds of titles available at any one time for browsers.

Proceeds are used by the library and museum to fund speakers and other programs for adults, teens and children, as well as needed materials and equipment — and an occasional cow! Over the years, that program support has amounted to many thousands of dollars.

Funds are also raised by booth fees at the annual Friends’ Craft Fair on the first Saturday in October, members’ dues, donations and occasional other events, such as the recent “A Holiday’s Eve at the Museum.”

Artist turns cement into objects of beauty Englewood man’s projects include waterscapes, lamps

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The skilled hands and creative mind of Englewood resident Rick Beavers transform cement into works of art.

“I worked with stone as a mason for a lot of years,” he said. “In the ‘80s we moved to Las Vegas because there was no work around here. The guy I worked for a there did a lot of cement sculptures. The first time I did cement sculptures I found I could do things I never knew I could do. I still do stone work but now most of my work is cement sculptures.”

He owns and operates his Creative Rock Solutions. He specializes in creating custom projects in sculptured concrete, ranging from a small lawn waterfall to an extensive backyard recreation area.

“When I am invited to bid on a job I first meet with the owners to learn what elements they want included,” he said. “I then go over the size and theme the owner wants me to create when I do the project in my mind. I then visualize the project in my mind as I create a model of my concept that I show to the customer. If they accept the proposal, I go to work.”

He said all his projects are made of cement. He sculpts the creation out of cement using wire and rebar for strength when it is needed.

Rick Beavers eyes the model he made of a custom backyard recreation center he proposed to a customer. The Englewood business owner said the project that would include a hot tub, fireplace, grill and other amenities would be sculpted out of cement and painted to look like it was made of wood and rocks.

TOM MUNDS graduate said. “Each project has a theme and I paint the concrete to represent the wood and rocks that fit into the theme of the project.”

He said his home is his test area and it is full of his creations. One of the creations is the headboard of his bed.

“We wanted a headboard on our bed,” he said. “So I went to work while my wife was at work creating our concrete headboard and painted part of it with a forest scene.”

He said he created a few sculptures and recently decided he wanted to make a couple of projects he would

enter in the annual Englewood Art Show, held to provide amateur artists a venue to display their works.

“One of the projects I entered in the art show was a lamp,” he said. “I have made lamps for the house but this is a unique project. I painted much of the lamp to look like rocks. Then I created an eagle out of cement for the top of the lamp and painted it the appropriate colors. I thought it came out well.”

He said he really enjoys his work and plans to continue both the custom projects and perhaps a few artworks as long as he is able.

Roy Halladay left good memories through years

Littleton’s Rubin Cervantes, 19, gains control of a loose ball during a September league soccer game against Golden. Defense was a team strength for the Lions this season and they defeated Golden 1-0. It was one of six shutouts during the season and Littleton only gave up 11 goals in 18 games.

Stellar season comes to end for Lions Littleton soccer team wins league, two games at state

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Littleton High School soccer team earned a spot in the school record book as they were league champions for the first time since 1973.

“This was a very good season for us,” Lions coach Pedja Vajzovic said. “We started the season with the goal of getting to the playoffs. We got there by winning a league championship for the first time in more than 40 years. We won two playoff games but lost to a very good Centaurus team in the quarterfinals.

I am proud of our players and they should be proud of all they accomplished this season.”

By winning the league championship, the Lions accomplished their goal of making the state playoff and they were seeded 15th

Littleton’s Zack McGuire kicks a ball down the field during a September game against Golden.

FILE PHOTO in the 32-team state playoff bracket.

The Lions opened state tournament play at home Oct. 25 against 18th-seeded Skyview and beat the Wolverines 4-1. Littleton took on No. 2-seeded Kennedy in the second round and outscored the Commanders, 3-1. The season ended for the Lions in the quarterfinals as they lost to No. 7-seeded Centaurus 4-1.

Centaurus went on to earn state runner-up honors.

“Our strength this season was a very strong team defense,” Vajzovic said. “We had four very good fullbacks and good goalie play.

We weren’t a high-scoring team but we won because the opponents didn’t score many goals against our defense. We only gave up 11 goals in 18 games.”

Senior Nasr AliAbid

played defense as one of the center fullbacks.

“I played center midfield last season and I asked to play fullback this season to help our team,” AliAbid said. “Our defense was strong because we worked well together.”

He said he felt his speed and his ball-handling skills were important as a fullback.

“I am pretty good at both speed and ball-handling,” he said. “We played a lot of good opponents who had good forwards to press their attack. You need speed when the other team plays a long ball over the top to try to get it to one of their forwards. All the defenders needed speed to try to beat the other team’s player to the ball and clear it away from our goal.

“Ball-handling skills are also important because, when a ball comes to you deep near you own territory you have to control it and work to kick it up the field and away from your goal.”

SEE LIONS, P28

alston Valley baseball coach Brad Madden grew up playing baseball with Roy Halladay.

It didn’t take Madden long to realize that Halladay, who was his teammate at Arvada West, was a special player.

Halladay, 40, was killed Nov. 7 when the OICON A5 sport aircraft he was piloting crashed into the Gulf of Mexico.

He was a 1995 OVERTIME graduate of Arvada West and was a 17thround draft pick of the Toronto Blue Jays. He was an eight-time all-star with Toronto and Philadelphia and a Cy Young Award winner in both the Jim Benton American and National Leagues.

“From the time I met Roy as a 9-year-old, he was a dominant pitcher, player and a fierce competitor,” Madden said.

Halladay, who is one of only two pitchers to throw a post-season nohitter, had a 203-105 major league pitching record with a 3.38 earned run average. He was inducted into the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame in 2015 and likely will be a future inductee into the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

Valor, Cherry Creek roll to first-round football wins STAFF REPORT

Valor Christian and Cherry Creek, two schools that have had success over the years in the state football playoffs, notched Class 5A first-round wins on Nov. 10.

Top-seeded and defending state champion Valor, which is seeking its eighth state crown in the past nine seasons in three classifications, toppled Chaparral, 35-7.

The Eagles (11-0) will face Grandview (9-2) in a 7 p.m. quarterfinal contest on Nov. 17 at Valor Christian.

Valor has won the past three games played against the Wolves and holds a 4-2 advantage in the series.

BENTON FROM PAGE 27

“Baseball players in Colorado now could learn from him,” said Adams State baseball coach Jim Capra, who was Halladay’s coach at Arvada West.

“Everything you hear about him at the major league level are the same as when he was young. He was as good off the field as he was on the field. He was very coachable and a good teammate. He was very level-headed about the things he might do in the future.”

Halladay was one of the reasons that pro baseball scouts and college recruiters now pay more attention to Colorado prospects.

“Roy’s success paved the way for Colorado players past and future to get a chance,” added Madden.

“Before him it was unheard of for pro scouts to come to Colorado to find players. He put Colorado on the baseball map. Roy was the hardestworking person I have ever known and he dedicated all his effort to making himself one of the best pitchers in Major League baseball history and a future Hall of Famer.”

Halladay led Arvada West to the 1994 Class 6A state championship.

The Wildcats lost to Cherry Creek in the 1995 5A title game but Halladay didn’t pitch because he was used in the semifinals.

“He pitched as a freshman but his

Cherry Creek, a nine-time state champion and a semifinalist last season, downed Ralston Valley, 34-21.

The Bruins (9-2) will play unbeaten Eaglecrest (11-0) in a 7 p.m. game quarterfinal game Nov. 17 at Legacy Stadium in Aurora.

Creek has won nine of 12 games played against Eaglecrest, including the last three.

Valor was only ahead of Chaparral 14-7 at halftime but outscored the Wolverines 21-0 in the second half to secure the victory.

Quarterback Blake Stenstrom passed for 56 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles’ victory. Luke McCaffrey, the second half of Valor’s dual quar-

terback system, passed for 67 yards and rushed for a touchdown. Ryan Thibault had three receptions for 66 yards and a TD, in addition to making six solo tackles.

Cherry Creek jumped to a 17-0 lead over Ralston Valley but had to stave of the Mustangs with 10 points in the final six minutes to advance.

Quarterback Alex Padilla completed 16-of-23 passes for 201 yards and two touchdowns, including a scoring strike to Dimitri Stanley with two minutes to play to seal the win.

Stanley caught six passes for 82 yards and two scores.

In another 5A game, Columbine rolled to a 45-14 opening-round win 5A

‘He was as good off the field as he was on the field. He was very coachable ...’

Jim Capra, Coached Halladay at Arvada West sophomore year is when he really opened eyes of coaches and players,” recalled Capra. “It was like going from high school to the major leagues in one year. He has a great high school career and was one of the best players to come out of Colorado.”

Phil Ross, a retired former high school and college umpire, called Halladay an exemplary individual who was universally well-liked by his peers and fans.

He recalls working two games in which Halladay played.

“The first time in did a Wildcats game he was a sophomore, playing first base and I was the base umpire,” recalled Ross. “He was the best player I officiated in a two-decade umpiring career but also the most polite.

“The following season I was behind the plate when Roy pitched a no-hitter.

I didn’t realize it. As I was walking towards the parking lot an excited man exclaimed, “Do you know you just called a no-hitter?” I saw the line

score the next day. I felt good.”

Enrollment numbers Enrollment splits to determine which classifications schools will play in for the 2018-20 cycle were set by the Classification and League Organizing Committee on Nov. 7.

I often hear coaches commenting about school size especially when playing a bigger school, so it was nice to see some figures, although enrollment numbers don’t always translate into athletic success, especially with open enrollment.

So to start with an easy question, what school has the largest enrollment?

Yep, Cherry Creek with 3,654 students but which school is second?

That would be Montbellow in far northeast Denver with 2,964.

win over Highlands Ranch.

Columbine led 31-0 at halftime and rushed for 253 yards and five TDs to end the season for the Falcons.

Highlands Ranch lost its final four games to finish with a 6-5 overall record.

Dominic Bettini rushed for both Falcons touchdowns.

In the first round of the 4A playoffs, Loveland ousted Ponderosa, 31-6, as the Mustangs lost for the second straight time after starting the season with a 9-0 record.

Mustangs quarterback Sterling Ostdahl threw for the lone touchdown, and his brother Quinton led the Pondo defense with 15 tackles.

LIONS FROM PAGE 27

The Lions scored a total of 47 goals during the season with 13 different players scoring at least one goal.

Zack McGuire, a senior, was the scoring leader as he scored nine goals.

“This was a great high school soccer season. It was a lot better than I expected it to be,” he said. “We had a strong team last year but didn’t get to state. This year we had great team chemistry, we worked hard in practice every day so we would be ready for every game. All the elements came together and we had a great season. Personally, I think it was the best season I have played for Littleton. It was the most fun because we all were friends and we really worked well together in our games.”

Vajzovic said this was an experienced team, with nine seniors on the roster.

“We had four seniors on last season’s team so we had a lot of kids coming back, including nine seniors and most of the seniors were starters,” the coach said. “We set out to finish what we started last season. Of course, they will graduate in June so we will have new players on the team next season.

But we do have a number of players returning who had varsity experience this season, our junior varsity team finished third in their league so the future of Littleton soccer is bright.”

Smoothie King opened in early November at the Highlands Ranch Town Center. A second store is set to open in December, with four additional stores planned in the next five years. COURTESY PHOTO

First area Smoothie King opens in Highlands Ranch

BY STAFF REPORT

The first Smoothie King franchise in the Denver area opened in early November in Highlands Ranch.

The nation’s originator in offering “Smoothies with a Purpose” will open a second location in December in Castle Rock, and plans to add four additional stores in the next five years.

“The Denver Metro area has been an appealing location for Smoothie King to develop for a number of years due to the active and healthy lifestyles that many people embrace here,” Kerry Dray, Denver operator for Smoothie King, said in a news release.

Dray is an avid fitness enthusiast and certified yoga instructor. She has partnered with her aunt, Susan Dray, to open the Denver-metro franchises.

Together, the two plan to help provide Denverites with meal replacement and snack solutions that are purposeful, no matter what goal someone is trying to achieve, whether it be to lose weight, gain muscle, stay well or simply take a break.

Located in the Highlands Ranch Town Center, Smoothie King is at 1100 Sgt. Jon Stiles Drive, Suite 101. The Castle Rock store is at 1341 New Beale St., Suite 130.

Both locations are accepting applications for employment.

The stores offer sports beverages, energy bars, vitamin supplements and more. As part of its healthfocus, Smoothie King also recently announced its Cleaner Blending initiative. At the centerpiece of the new initiative, Smoothie King will remove added sugar from more than 50 smoothies and will remove artificial flavors, artificial colors, artificial preservatives, and added hormones from all smoothie ingredients and introduce non-GMO fruits and veggies.

and April 17, 2015 through July 28, 2015, Greenwood Village stored 4.73 acre-feet of water in the Pond for the beneficial uses decreed in Case No. 2009CW266. In-priority Pond inflow exceeded 5 acre-feet and 4.73 acre-feet was stored based upon 7.0-foot staff gage readings and the Pond’s stage-capacity relationship. This relationship and these free river periods are shown in the attached Exhibit 2. 5.2 Amount Claimed Absolute for Irrigation Use: 4.73 acrefeet. 5.3 The irrigation use is being made absolute for 4.73 acre-feet of the total 5 acre-feet decreed to the Pond, with 0.27 acre-feet remaining conditional. The irrigation use is being made absolute pursuant to C.R.S. § 37-92-301(4)(e) which states: “A decreed conditional water storage right shall be made absolute for all decreed purposes to the extent of the volume of the appropriation that has been captured, possessed, and controlled at the decreed storage structure.”

6. Claim to Make Absolute in Part the Exchange from the Metropolitan Denver Wastewater Plant, currently known as the Robert W. Hite Treatment Facility (“Hite Plant”). 6.1 Date of Operation of the Exchange Right: On July 9, 2017, 0.05 c.f.s. was released to the South Platte River from the Hite Plant to refill by exchange 0.0858 acre-feet of the Pond lost to evaporation at a rate of 0.04 c.f.s. On July 9, 2017, the call on the South Platte River was downstream of the Hite Plant with the Brantner Ditch bypassing to the Hewes Cook Ditch. This is summarized in the attached Exhibit 3. There was no call on Cherry Creek or Goldsmith Gulch. Therefore, a rate of 0.04 c.f.s. is being made absolute for the exchange right from the Hite Plant to the Pond.

6.2 Amount Claimed Absolute: 0.04 c.f.s. 7. Outline of diligence during the diligence period towards completion of the appropriation and application of water to beneficial use as conditionally decreed. Greenwood Village’s diligence includes without limitation the following: 7.1 Greenwood Village has made annual lease payments to Denver for the exchange water utilized in the exchange rights. 7.2 Greenwood Village has completed accounting for the Pond storage and exchange operations pursuant to the decree in Case No. 2009CW266. 7.3 Greenwood Village utilized its water consultants Bishop-Brogden Associates, Inc. (“BBA”) for operations, monitoring, accounting, and technical expertise related to the Pond and exchange rights. Greenwood Village paid BBA approximately $10,500 for these services. 7.4 Greenwood Village and its consultants BBA regularly communicate with the Colorado Division of Water Resources staff, including the Water District 8 Commissioner, regarding the Pond and exchange operations. 7.5 Greenwood Village consulted its water attorneys Petrock & Fendel, P.C. on operations of the Pond, exchange rights, the Denver lease, and related matters paying approximately $3,000 for legal services. 7.6 Greenwood Village undertook a planning and budgeting process for improvements to the Well and its pumping and distribution systems. 8. To the extent, if any, water is diverted directly or by exchange in priority and pursuant to the 2009CW266 decree for any or all of the conditional rights set forth herein while this case remains pending, Greenwood Village reserves the right and may claim some or all of these conditional rights are absolute without amendment of this Application or publication of notice. 9. Name and address of owner of the land upon which water is or will be stored. The City of Greenwood Village as described in ¶1. (5 pages).
