When former Littleton Independent editor and owner Garrett Ray died on Dec. 17, with him went a piece of Littleton’s past.

“He was the soul of the community,” former Littleton City Manager Larry Borger said. “In the 1960s and ’70s, lots of people were new to Littleton, and he provided a hometown feel. Through the Independent, he made Littleton a place people could connect to.”

Ray, 82, died at home after a lengthy battle with Parkinson’s disease. He is survived by his wife of 58 years, Nina, son Ben, and numerous grandchildren.

Ray, who was inducted into the Colorado Press Association Hall of Fame in April, had many roles: father, husband, professor and journalist.

To those who knew him through his work at the Independent, where he started as a reporter in 1962, Ray was a hard-nosed journalist who cared deeply about his town.

Ray took the helm of the paper in 1969, buying it from legendary publisher Houstoun Waring and editor Ed Bemis. He held the post until 1981.

Borger said Ray was instrumental in drumRay ming up support for the bond that created South Platte Park, along a floodplain devastated by the 1965 flood.

Ray was a friend, too: Borger remembered getting together to play guitar while their kids scampered around their feet.

“We called that a hootenanny back then,” Borger said. “We’d sing and drink beer and laugh. We had an arm’s length relationship, though — I

understood that if I screwed up, he’d report on it.”

Ray’s accomplishments abound in Littleton, said former mayor Susan Thornton, thanks to the wellspring of ideas that came from the Littleton Leadership Retreat, a sort of city think tank.

The group’s big ideas included the Town Hall Arts Center, the Littleton Immigrant Resource Center and the lowering of the railroad tracks that paved the way for light rail, Thornton said.

“He had a very powerful influence in shaping Littleton and making it the cool place that it is,” she said. “He covered news in depth, and pretty much everybody read the paper back in those days.”

After selling the Independent in 1981, Ray went on to a second career as a journalism professor at Colorado State University in Fort Collins.

Ray was a godsend to young journalism students, recalled Brian Clark, a former student of Ray’s who went on

to a long career in journalism and is now the creative director at the Colorado Health Institute.

“He had this calm, steady presence,” Clark said. “You meet people in journalism who are crass and hard, but Garrett was so gentle. It helped us learn without feeling that looming pressure.”

Ray came to Clark’s wedding, he recalled, and sent him a kind letter when Clark lost his job when the Rocky Mountain News shut down in 2009.

Ray retired from CSU in 2001, and moved briefly to Wales, where he got a doctorate from Cardiff University.

Garrett and Nina moved back to Littleton in 2009.

Ray came by his journalism career honestly, said his wife, Nina, starting with a neighborhood newsletter produced on a hand-cranked mimeograph machine when he was 11.

The couple met in ninth grade in Greeley, and their married life brought lots of love and adventures,

Nina said.

“Garrett was an adoring father and grandfather,” Nina said. “Being a newspaper editor meant he was in the office a lot, but we would go to our cabin in the mountains or take spring break in Mexico. You wouldn’t know it from the line of work he was in, but Garrett was actually shy, and he hated conflict.”

Nina said she’s thankful Ray is at peace after his long illness.

“I’m relieved,” Nina said by phone from her home at the Wind Crest retirement community in Highlands Ranch. “I’m tired, and I’m sad, but there’s relief too.”

Ray received many accolades over the years, including a Knight Fellowship at Stanford University, the Golden Quill and Eugene Cervi awards from the International Society of Weekly Newspaper Editors, the Keeper of the Flame award from the Colorado Society for Professional Journalists, a Hall of Fame induction at the Denver Press Club, and several others.

Ray stayed active in his later years, teaching an autobiography writing class in Highlands Ranch as recently as 2013.

Journalism’s precarious state in the 21st century concerned Ray, who spoke to the Independent after his Hall of Fame induction in April. But he remained hopeful.

“I hope others,” Ray said, “get to enjoy the wonderful type of life I led in journalism.”

Ceremony a ‘beautiful moment’ for new citizens Naturalization event held for youths from around metro area

BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A

group of 51 youths from around the Denver area recently became United States citizens at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services office in Centennial.

The naturalization ceremony, which took place on the final day of National Adoption Awareness Month, marked the end of a long journey for many of the new citizens, who ranged in age from 4 to 17. The Nov. 30 ceremony recognized children who obtained citizenship through their parents, either through adoption or after their parents became citizens through naturalization.

Stephanie Logan, of Golden, watched as her son, Lazarus, 12, originally from Ghana in West Africa, received his certificate as a citizen. Lazarus has lived in the United States since 2014. Logan and her husband, Cedric, have three other children, Elliot, Audrey and Naomi.

“It’s been a real adventure from the outset,” Logan said. “Always lots of surprises for us, but just a joy for us as a family to learn about each other and to grow and connect together.

This for us solidifies that family-ness. This is the last piece of paperwork that has our family name on it together. It’s just a really beautiful moment.”

Naturalization is a process by which U.S. citizenship is granted to a foreign citizen or national after he or she fulfills the requirements established by Congress in the Immigration and Nationality Act. The USCIS welcomes about 750,000 citizens during naturalization ceremonies each year.

The children received certificates recognizing their citizenship once they completed an oath and pledge of allegiance. A video message from the president congratulating the new citizens was played as well.

Logan said she felt excited and relieved once her son received his certificate.

“There’s a certain atmosphere around immigrants today that makes it a really big moment to have his citizenship and to know he is

The ceremony came during a time of much controversy surrounding undocumented immigrants coming into the United States, primarily from Mexico.

President Donald Trump has led initiatives to attempt to tighten security along the U.S.-Mexico border.

The 51 new citizens hail from all over the world, including Australia, Burma, Canada, China, Egypt, El Salvador, Ethiopia, Germany, Ghana, Haiti, India, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Malaysia, Mexico, Nepal, Philippines, Somalia, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden, Togo, Uganda, Vietnam and Zambia.

“We’re really happy,” said Fred Canales.

His daughter, Heydi Canales Zabala, 10, received her certificate during the ceremony.

The family moved to Denver from El Salvador in 2012.

“My father is a citizen too, now my daughter,” Fred Canales said. “It’s really nice to be a citizen. And we’re really happy.”

The Certificate of Citizenship serves as evidence of a person’s, or their child’s, U.S. citizenship. The certificates are only issued to people who were born abroad but are U.S. citizens at birth through their parents or who became citizens after birth, but before the age of 18.

tilla spoke to the children and their families during the ceremony telling his journey to become a United States citizen. Castilla, originally from Mexico, was naturalized in Centennial last month. Afterward, Castilla took photos and signed autographs for the kids and their families.

Castilla spoke about his dream to play in Major League Baseball and how coming to America has helped him realize that childhood dream.

“I was so happy to become an American, because I am so thankful to this country,” Castilla said. “I’m very thankful to this country and grateful what this country has done for me.”

Windermere evacuees say goodbye to community Seniors evicted after November fire move on

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Pauline Draper gathered up her coat and scarf, and headed off to sign paperwork officially severing ties to the Windermere apartments.

The warm sunshine outside the Life Center was a far cry from the cold, blustery morning a month earlier, when Draper, 74, and her husband Paul, 75, were among the throngs of scared, shivering seniors who crowded into the building as they watched emergency personnel pull their neighbors from the apartment tower on South Datura Street in Littleton.

An early morning fire on Nov. 17 left one resident dead and many more injured. On Dec. 18, as swarms of moving crews hauled their belongings from the building, many of the same seniors returned to the Life Center, this time to say goodbye.

“It’s like a funeral,” Pauline said.

She and Paul are moving to an apartment in Wheat Ridge.

“We’re leaving a community of friends,” she said. “But it’s also a new beginning. It’s bittersweet, but there’s relief, too.”

The building’s 163 residents spent the two weeks after the fire locked out of their units before they were told the

A dozen residents spent several days living in a makeshift Red Cross shelter at the Life Center, and dozens have spent the month since the fire living in hotels.

Many still don’t have new homes,

said Linda Haley, Arapahoe County’s Senior Resources manager, who has spearheaded much of the response to the disaster.

County officials have been working to find homes for roughly 80 residents, Haley said, and have placed 27 so far.

There simply aren’t enough suitable apartments in the area for them all, she said.

Meanwhile, crews will take her belongings to be professionally cleaned for smoke damage.

The month since the fire has been exhausting, Austgen said, “but it’s given me a greater appreciation for friends and family. God is in control, and he has a plan if we just hang together.”

Police: Slaying suspect was warned to quit playing with gun Timothy Shelton, 22, charged with murder in July shooting of Luisa Aguilar, 15

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Luisa Aguilar was killed three weeks before her 16th birthday.

Timothy “Alex” Shelton, 22, admitted firing a shot that passed through a friend’s cheek and into Aguilar’s head as the pair slept on a couch in Shelton’s home in the 6000 block of South Broadway in Littleton on July 17, according to police officers’ testimony.

Shelton told police it Shelton was an accident. Prosecutors are calling it first-degree murder.

Shelton, 22, was still drunk after a night of partying, friends told officers, who testified at Shelton’s preliminary hearing on Dec. 17. Friends had warned Shelton numerous times through the night to quit playing with a loaded handgun, they said.

Aguilar, 15, was still asleep when Shelton trained the gun’s laser sight at the head of Savon Smith, 18, who lay beside Aguilar on the couch, and pulled

Luisa Aguilar was three weeks shy of her 16th birthday when she was shot in a home in Littleton in July. Police say the man who shot her was warned to quit toying with a loaded handgun, according to testimony by police.

COURTESY PHOTO the trigger, testified Littleton Police detective Erin Brannan, who is the lead investigator on the case.

Aguilar, whom friends called Lulu, was shot in the head and died two days later at Littleton Adventist Hospital.

Smith, whose cheek the bullet passed

through before hitting Aguilar, was treated and released from the hospital.

The prosecution presents its evidence at a preliminary hearing, which functions as a sort of mini-trial. A judge then rules whether or not the charges against the defendant are warranted.

The prosecution called its witnesses on Dec. 17, and the second half of the preliminary hearing will be held Feb. 24 with defense witnesses.

Prosecutors have charged Shelton with first-degree murder, citing a subsection in which a victim is killed from behaviors that show “extreme indifference to human life.” The mandatory sentence if convicted of the crime is life in prison without parole. Shelton also faces charges of assault and prohibited possession of a weapon.

Shelton admitted firing the shot, but said it was an accident, Brannan testified.

Aguilar was a sweet girl who liked music, dancing, and spending time with her 6-year-old sister, said Maria Olivas, Aguilar’s mother, in a letter to Colorado Community Media.

Aguilar’s little sister often asks her mom “why Luisa is sleeping in heaven,” Olivas wrote.

Aguilar wanted to be an immigration attorney, Olivas said.

“Drugs destroyed all of those dreams,” Olivas wrote. “As her mother, I tried to get her help.”

Olivas said she took her daughter to mental health treatment centers and

conferred with law enforcement, but Aguilar kept drifting away.

“She found a bad group of friends who pushed her toward drugs,” Olivas said.

Aguilar ran away from home several times, and Olivas didn’t know where she was until she received a Facebook message on July 17 that her daughter was in the hospital.

“I learned she had been shot in the head,” Olivas wrote. “I wanted to die.”

Shelton’s friends laid out the events of the prior evening, testified Littleton Police officer Christa Bunten.

Smith and another young man brought Aguilar to Shelton’s house the evening of July 16, Bunten said. The group spent the evening in the basement drinking vodka and smoking marijuana, while Shelton toyed with the handgun, pulling its loaded magazine in and out, at one point goading his dogs to chase the gun’s laser sight, according to the officer.

Smith and Aguilar went upstairs to sleep on the couch around 1 or 2 a.m.

At 3 a.m., Smith awoke to find Shelton training the laser sight on his face, Bunten testified. Smith told him to stop, and Shelton replied “This is my house, I’ll do whatever I want,” the officer said.

Smith awoke again about 6 a.m., in time to see Shelton again pointing the gun at his face before Shelton pulled the trigger, Bunten said.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife modifies entrance fees, adds hangtag pass option New structure to help agency address operating costs, staffing needs, property maintenance STAFF REPORT

Colorado Parks and Wildlife will modify its state parks entrance fees beginning Jan. 1, as a result of the passage of Senate Bill 18-143 in May 2018.

This is the first increase to park entry fees since 2010.

Based on visitor feedback, the agency also will offer a hangtag park pass tied to an individual instead of a vehicle.

The revised fee structure, approved by the Parks and Wildlife Commission, allows the agency to address increased operating costs, provide adequate staffing, and fulfill property maintenance needs to continue providing programs and services while managing an increasing number of park users, according to a news release. Ten key goals have been identified for the agency as a result of this increased funding.

“The additional fees will serve to

10 GOALS Colorado Parks and Wildlife has set 10 goals to fulfill by 2025. They are: • Grow the number of hunters and anglers • Expand public and private land access • Increase big game populations • Improve wildlife populations • Increase the number of fish stocked • Plan a new state park • Maintain our dams • Engage all outdoor recreationists in funding and conservation • Recruit and retain qualified employees • Maintain and improve parks and wildlife areas enhance all aspects of the visitor experience in Colorado’s 41 state parks,” Margaret Taylor, parks and wildlife assistant director for capital, parks and trails, said in the release. “Through

funding larger capital projects to smaller on-the-ground programs, these dollars help us better serve both the public and our resources.”

Effective Jan. 1, the park entrance fee will be $8 to $10 per vehicle, and $4 for individual entering designated parks without a vehicle. The annual affixed vehicle pass costs $80, and an annual affixed multiple vehicle pass will cost $40 per vehicle. A replacement cost of $5 will apply for affixed vehicle replacement passes. The Aspen Leaf annual pass for those ages 64 and older will cost $70, with the multiple pass costing $35 per vehicle.

The state parks annual hangtag pass will cost $120. Hangtag passes are issued to individuals, not vehicles, and only one vehicle at a time can use a hangtag pass. The replacement cost for the hangtag pass will be $60.

An off-leash dog day pass will cost $3, while an off-leash annual pass is $25.

The price of the Columbine and Centennial annual passes will emain $14 prr pass, and commercial daily pass costs also remain unchanged.

“We’re very happy that in 2019 we can address the request from our visitors for a hangtag pass. This is a great

option for multi-car families or those who use different vehicles for different activities,” Taylor in the release.

“We’ve also added 13 parks to our individual daily pass, or `walk-in’ pass, program to help us engage more of our visitors into funding and conservation efforts.”

All annual passes, including the hangtag pass, will include a separate product panel that qualifies as an individual daily pass for designated parks.

State parks in Colorado have experienced record-breaking visitation, with nearly 15 million visitors last year. Since 2010, state parks have not received funding from state general tax dollars except occasional small amounts (less than 1 percent of the budget) for special projects, meaning the agency relies on park fees to make needed improvements, hire staff and begin planning for Colorado’s next state park, the release said.

Denver Audubon celebrating 50th anniversary with a big year

MURDER FROM PAGE 6

The officer testified that Smith leaped up and shouted “You shot me in the face, bro!”

Shelton, Smith and the other man all fled the house, leaving Aguilar bleeding on the couch, Bunten said. Another resident of the house found Aguilar and called 911.

Meanwhile, Smith and the other man left on foot and made it to Littleton Boulevard and South Cherokee Street before Smith collapsed from blood loss, prompting his friend to call 911, the officer stated. Shelton walked off as well, and first bought cigarettes at a gas station, then went to his girlfriend’s house. She called police.

Interviewed that evening, Smith told Bunten there was no disagreement between him and Shelton, and he felt the shooting was an accident.

“He gets drunk and does stupid stuff,” Smith told Bunten.

At the police station, Shelton told Brannan a variety of stories before admitting he shot the pair, Brannan testified.

“I don’t want to do years for a mistake,” Shelton told Brannan in interrogation footage played at the hearing. “I was going to get an apartment.

I wanted to get married … I told him not to bring that girl around. She’s like 15.”

Olivas said life without her daughter has been excruciating.

“I do not have any one word to explain how I feel, because the words do not exist,” Olivas wrote.

She said she has been hospitalized for anxiety attacks since her daughter’s death.

“I ask all parents to be patient with their kids,” Olivas said. “Fill them with love and understanding. You still have the opportunity to do something for them. I won’t hug my daughter ever again.”

Denver Audubon will celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2019. As part of the landmark, the society will sponsor a six-county Big Birding Year.

A Big Year is a competition among birders, attempting to identify as many species as possible by sight or sound, within a single calendar year and within a specific geographic area.

“The Denver Audubon Big Year is an opportunity to really get to know the birds in your local community and the metro area, while participating in a fun, friendly competition against other birders,” Karl Brummert, executive director of Denver Audubon, said in a news release. “Challenge your friends and family, and challenge yourself to add to your bird life list in 2019.”

Birders of all levels are welcome to explore the birding sites in the metro area’s six counties: Adams, Arapahoe, Broomfield, Denver, Douglas and Jefferson. The society also will have a viewing of the movie “The Big Year” next summer and a presentation by author

Upgrading your bathtub to a shower system can prevent fall-related injuries The National Aging in Place Council suggests that eliminating an old bathtub for a walkin shower can greatly increase bathroom safety and end fall-related injuries. The study also recommends switching to a handheld showerhead and installing grab bars to increase bathing safety.

M

ost seniors want to stay in their homes, but bathing safely and independently can become increasingly difficult with age. Transforming your bathtub/shower combination into a walkin shower can be an ideal solution. Dreamstyle Remodeling offers a new shower solution, featuring Kohler products, that fits directly into the existing tub space and has been engineered specifically for safety, cleanliness and retaining independence while bathing.

Dreamstyle Remodeling’s walk-in showers benefit from over 140 years of Kohler engineering and bathroom innovation.

This long-term innovation means the showers are more than just function, they’re built for aesthetics as well, and designed specifically to enhance a home’s unique beauty. As a company, Dreamstyle Remodeling acknowledges it’s tough to be faced with bathing difficulties in your own home – but that shouldn’t have to detract from your quality of life.

The customizable showers come with a variety of features as well, so the bathroom can be personalized with ideal fixtures – things like Kohler’s Choreograph walls, which are made of natural marble in any pattern imaginable, and custom accessories like shelves, seating, sleek faucets, and the option of an Awaken handshower kit – a removable handheld showerhead with different spray options and easy access if bathing has become difficult.

For your free in-home shower consultation call 303-222-5252

Don’t let yourself or your loved one become a statistic: bathingrelated falls are no joke. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention reported that 360,000-480,000 older adults sustain fall-related fractures each year, often resulting in hospitalization. For a limited time only, Dreamstyle Remodeling is offering a free, in home consultation with a special introductory offer of 20% OFF MSRP a complete shower system.

Call 303-222-5252 today, and with the help of a Kohler shower by Dreamstyle Remodeling, you can take the steps necessary to prevent injury in the bathroom.

VOICES

Living on borrowed time, and in no rush to pay back QUIET DESPERATION

Craig Marshall Smith

I

conclude every calendar year of columns with one that explores what makes life worth living.

The time has come, the walrus said. This year’s will be a little different.

First, I think an important question to ask is this: Is life worth living?

Many think it is not.

And too many of the many are far too young. The statistics are very depressing.

Anthony Bourdain answered

“No” in 2018. So did Kate Spade, and so did two former UCLA basketball stars, Billy Knight and Tyler Honeycutt.

Knight wrote, “I’m lost in life, and I feel like there’s no hope. I have no friends with me here. I have no wife, girlfriend. I have nothing.”

Knight had been arrested less than a month before his suicide and charged with sexually abusing a child.

It hasn’t been a pretty year in America. It hasn’t been great,

A holiday message of peace, love, hope and joy

t’s been said that faith and fear, or hope and fear, are kind of like the same thing, a belief that something will happen in the future.

Now whether we want or choose to believe that whatever is about to happen will be something awesome WINNING and positive or misWORDS erable and negative is really up to us.

And whether or not you are a person of faith, any kind of faith, celebrating Christmas or Hanukkah or any other holiday this season. Or maybe Michael Norton none at all.

And whether or not you are someone who considers themselves agnostic or possibly even an atheist, my hope is that you will receive this prayer and message with the love and intent with which it is written.

Today I pray for the restoration of hope and faith in a world filled with worry, fear and doubt.

May you be blessed with a sense of peace and calm; may the season of hope and light bring upon you the confidence and courage to seek out peace when others choose to look for a battle; may what you think about and hope for in this

life be built upon the foundation of love and kindness, love and gentleness, and love and forgiveness.

Today I pray for your health.

May you be blessed with strength and endurance to fight whatever illness you are battling.

May you experience healing and remain hopeful and confident in your healing.

May you be blessed by the compassion of your family and friends; may you be blessed by the wisdom and knowledge of your physicians; and may you feel comforted and surrounded by your nurses and caregivers who are with you each day.

Today I pray for sobriety and recovery from addiction.

And I pray for the families and friends who support, love, and stand by those closest to them who are in the struggle to recover.

May this season of love and blessings be the season that brings the blessing of determination, hope and help that can change lives and restore those affected to a life of clean and sober living.

May the families impacted remember that we can hate the addiction and still love the addicted.

Today I pray for the healing of relationships.

May this season of love and joy bring together those who have drifted apart; may the blessing of love and forgiveness be with those who desire restoration in their relationships; may the blessing of understanding and acceptance mend fences in families and friendships where lingering hurts and disappointments may exist. May all that work through and do with each other and for each other be done in love.

Today I pray for all of the families who are remembering loved ones this holiday season. Perhaps it’s the first season where their presence will be missed.

I pray that the loving memories and happy reminders of those we have loved and lost will soothe the pain and the hurt of missing them so very much this holiday season. May the blessing of peace and love fill the hearts and souls of those who are grieving. May the happiness and joy of those we have lost never be forgotten.

OBITUARIES GARRETT

RAY, GARRETT

Aug. 15, 1936 – Dec. 17, 2018

Garrett Wilson Ray, awardwinning Colorado newspaperman and journalism professor, died 17 December 2018, at his home in Littleton, CO, after a dozen years with Parkinson’s disease.

Ray’s journalism career spanned five decades and brought recognition and awards, notably Hall of Fame inductions from the Denver Press Club and the Colorado Press Association; the Eugene Cervi award from the International Society of Weekly Newspaper Editors and earlier, ISWNE’s Golden Quill award. He was a Knight Fellow at Stanford University and a Congressional Fellow in Washington, D.C., and won Journalism Educator of the Year and Keeper of the Flame awards from the Colorado Society for Professional Journalists. His formal training was at the University of Colorado (BA), Colorado State University (MA) and University of Cardiff in Wales (PhD).

Born in Greeley, CO in 1936 to Lew and Elizabeth Ray, his journalistic career began at age 11, when he, two siblings and some neighborhood pals produced a summer Neighborhood News. He grew up in Greeley, in high school meeting Nina Anderson, who became his wife and life-long partner. He loved Nina, family, clear writing, travel photography, hiking, American folk music and chocolate chip cookies. In 1961 he went to work for the Littleton CO Independent and Arapahoe Herald, weekly papers that

he later co-owned, published and edited. He and his partner sold the papers in 1981, after which Ray began a new career teaching media ethics and courses in writing, editing and management at CSU in Fort Collins. In 2001 he retired and he and Nina focused on travelling, volunteering for church and civic causes and enjoying visits with siblings and grandchildren. As Parkinson’s-related difficulties progressed, they relocated in 2009 at the Wind Crest retirement community in Littleton.

He is survived by his wife, Nina J. Ray; son Benjamin Douglas (Lynne Paris) Ray of Denver; son-in-law Rod Harding of Marion, IA; grandchildren Dylan, Olivia, Isabella and Henderson Ray; Hannah and Sam Buchenaur; Bailey and Tage Harding; Alexandra Harding; brother Tom (Helen) Ray of Sechelt, B.C. Canada; and sister Genevieve Ray of York, PA. He was predeceased by two daughters, infant Jane Louise and Sarah Elizabeth. A celebration of life service will be held December 30 at 2 p.m., Columbine United Church, 6375 South Platte Canyon Rd., Littleton, CO. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Garrett Ray Scholarship Fund, c/o ISWNE, Missouri Southern State University, 3950 E. Newman Rd., Joplin, MO 64801-1595, or to help place a park bench honoring Garrett, donate to South Suburban Parks & Recreations, 6631 S. University Blvd., Centennial, CO 80121.

enver metro-area residents know the scene well: Hordes of friends and families huddled in downtown Denver to watch the fireworks wave the closing year goodbye.

But if the cold and crowds — and in the case of many of downtown’s parties, the cost — don’t sound attractive, New Year’s Eve in the metro area packs many lesser-known events off the beaten path that might do the trick, including something for introverts.

Dance to an ‘alternative’ beat For those who miss when The Killers dominated the alternative music scene, central Denver’s Bar Standard dance club has the perfect event.

“It’s the kind of thing you’d want to do in your real life,” said Michael Trundle, DJ and promoter for the Lipgloss dance party. “You’re not doing it because you’re supposed to do it because it’s New Year’s Eve. You’re going to hear music you actually like and care about.”

Lipgloss, which bills itself as a dance party “for people who don’t usually like clubs,” is one of four dance events to be held at the Milk Bar and Bar Standard at 1037 N. Broadway in central Denver — just a few minutes from downtown — from 9 p.m.-2 a.m. The event, titled “An Alternative NYE,” will include Lipgloss’ indie rock and indie pop dance floor, an `80s new wave floor, a goth floor and a synthwave floor. The multiple rooms also feature multiple bars, Trundle said.

There’s no dress code at the no-frills event — people can wear jeans or “whatever floats your boat,” Trundle said. Away from the downtown fire-

The inside of BookBar, a wine bar and bookstore in northwest Denver at 4280 N. Tennyson St. COURTESY OF SKIPPING ROCKS PHOTOGRAPHY works and parties, it’s not “a snooty party,” Trundle added.

“People dance all night,” Trundle, 46, said. “I’ve played New Year’s Eve parties where people just stand around like a junior prom or something.

People just dance. My favorite thing is DJing to people who actually dance.”

The music will be non-top 40, and “everything from The Killers to LCD Soundsystem is what we’d play in the indie room,” Trundle said.

Tickets online are $15 for the presale and will go up to $20 on New Year’s Eve. Buy them at bit.ly/2QEKmgK. For introverts, readers A “boozy, bookish” night is in store at northwest Denver’s BookBar, where the Introvert’s New Year’s Eve Party will offer board games, coloring books, silent reading, snacks and, yes, a midnight countdown with a champagne toast and dessert.

“This event is particularly for people who don’t want to be at a loud bar,” said Kateri Kramer, 27, the events and marketing coordinator for the bookstore and wine bar. “It’s centered on community and ringing in the new year with good conversation, good drink and good friends because we believe that ringing in 2019 with the people we love is important.”

The gathering at 4280 N. Tennyson

‘70s and ‘80s parties The Viewhouse restaurant, bar and rooftop in Littleton and Centennial will host `70s- and `80s-themed dance parties, respectively.

The Littleton location at 2680 W. Main St. will feature live `70s music from local band Little Moses Jones, a rooftop DJ playing top 40 hits, `70s impersonators and more. The Centennial location at 7101 S. Clinton St. will feature Colorado `80s cover band The Goonies and a “back to the future” DJ. Party favors, a midnight champagne toast and more will liven up both events.

For those having dinner, reservations are required. Tickets for the Littleton event range from $10 general admission for the live music and DJ, to $65 including dueling pianos and the four-course dinner menu, with some options in between. Tickets for the Centennial event range from $25 general admission to $75 including the dinner buffet.

Tickets are available at bit. ly/2SZTXLE for Littleton and bit. ly/2Ah6t2L for Centennial. The events run 7 p.m. to 2 a.m.

A low-key family outing For those wanting to drink and have a meal away from the bustle of Denver — perhaps with family — Steuben’s restaurant in Arvada at 7355 Ralston Road will hold its Family Friendly New Year’s Eve. The event offers “midnight” champagne and sparkling cider toasts at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m., New Year’s Eve food and drink menus with “old school American classics” starting at 5 p.m. and a table-side magician providing family entertainment, said Johanna Ladis, a spokeswoman.

think it’s fair to say most of us will remember 2018 as a pretty tumultuous year. It seems like every week there was some kind of unusual or momentous happening.

Contentious elections, dire environmental happenings and social upheaval - 2018 had COMING it all.

ATTRACTIONS It’s perhaps fitting then that the music world in 2018 was also experiencing its own period of upheaval.

Perhaps more than any year I can recall, the best music of the year was made by Clarke Reader new voices, while established voices mainly remained quiet, possibly experiencing their own issues.

I picked five albums that might have crept under the radar in this busy year and detailed why they are worth your time. Here’s hoping for a steadier year in 2019.

LP5000 - Restorations Some of the best rock music in its early years was connected to the fractious happenings of the day.

Think about the work of musicians like Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Bob Dylan, Buffalo Springfield and Creedence Clearwater Revival.

The fourth album from Philadelphia’s Restorations taps into today’s political world with a sharp eye and empathetic approach to the everyday people affected by the decisions of politicians.

At times, Jon Loudon’s vocals convey rage and other times resignation.

But on the best album opener of the year, he gets at one universal truth — none of us can do this on our own.

Harlan and Alondra - Buddy As a listener, it’s always exciting when a rapper you’ve been hearing as a guest on other’s songs breaks out into the world on their own. It took Simmie Sims III, who performs under the name Buddy, nearly a decade to get to that point, but he did this year with the release of “Harlan and Alondra.”

The album is practically engineered to be played loud in your car on a sunny day with the windows rolled down. Highlights like “Trouble on Central,” “The Blue” and “Speechless” are the perfect blends of rap and soul, thanks to Buddy’s gifts as a rapper and singer. Hopefully, this is just the first entry in a long career.

New Year’s Eve overflowing with events Denver area offers myriad of good times for revelers

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A

ll over the world, people celebrate the beginning of a new year. In years past, readers may have watched music and fireworks across the nation — across the world — including New York City’s famous Ball Drop at Times Square, as the music of “Auld Lang Syne” plays.

Many of us have sung that over the years, wherever we happened to land on the final day of December.

Recordings used are often of the Guy Lombardo version, which his orchestra played in New York City each New Year’s Eve from 1929 to 1976. A quick search tells us it means something like “days gone by,” and is sung as a symbol of being with friends on that night. Poet Robert Burns wrote it down from the traditional ballad in the late 18th century and the tradition continues ...

Denver area celebrations are extensive, including major hotels and restaurants across the metro area — one will want to be sure of a reservation wherever one chooses to go — and there are gatherings, concerts and more, if one is looking to be with many others — or perhaps a sip of bubbly at home with family or friends is one’s choice. Or perhaps a movie and a nice late supper.

Foods served often include legumes: black-eyed peas, lentils, etc. because they resemble coins. Some countries feature pork (Cuba, Austria, Italy) and others enjoy ring-shaped cakes (Netherlands, Mexico, Greece, etc.)

Lush - Snail Mail Its encouraging to know that after more than 50 years as a cultural force, rock music still is home to random band names that don’t make a lick of sense. But don’t let the fact that 19-year-old Lindsey Jordan records under the goofy name of Snail Mail distract you from the fact that she’s a guitar hero for a new generation.

“Lush,” the debut album from Snail Mail, is an astoundingly assured and lovely 10-track affair.

Each entry is startlingly intimate entry of an audio journal, where Jordan explores love and life and the sadness that often comes from both.

Jordan also proves herself a wickedsly guitar player, layering solos and licks into her moody alt-rock missives. If you think rock is dead, put this album on before you record time of death.

• Bar Louies across the area, including the one at 10661 Westminster Blvd in Westminster Promenade are hosting parties. In Westminster, it’s a masquerade party with special New Years Eve cocktails, party favors and a champagne toast to ring in 2019. Tickets are $50 and available in advance at www.barlouie.com/ nye.

• A personal favorite near home is the family-friendly free fireworks display on Denver’s 16th Street Mall if weather is decent. A stunning display is shot from the roofs of tall buildings at 9 p.m. and again at midnight, spilling over the dark facades with a blaze of color. Families with children might want to enjoy a sweet treat first and get established at a good vantage point to watch — somewhere between 15th and 17th streets … Parking is, of course, an issue — consider arrival by light rail.

Some may wish to enjoy the Colorado Symphony’s early program of Viennese music first, then walk over to 16th. And there are three parties at Union Station: Great Hall. Lower Level and Cooper Lounge — reservations required in all — 720-460-3738.

• Also downtown: The Decadence NYE Party at the Colorado Convention Center (two nights, Dec. 30 and 31); Resolution NYE at McNichols Civic Center Building, where there is a view of fireworks (tickets start at $119); White Rose Gala at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House, Denver Center Performing Arts (charity event, live music, costumes, usually sells out — “Great Gatsby” theme); NYE at the Fillmore Auditorium with Sound Tribe Sector Nine; and a short drive north, String Cheese Incident plays at 1st Bank Center in Broomfield.

Many repeat themselves, others make bold attempts at new sounds, but very few actually manage to improve. Yet New York’s Wild Pink manage to do just that on “Yolk in the Fur.” The group’s debut was a clever, but fairly routine indie rock record. But on “Yolk,” they embrace the kind of heartland rock that has made groups like The War on Drugs top draws at festivals all over the country. Wild Pink washes their songs in shimmering acoustic guitars, quicksilver solos and echoing vocal work. The end result is a transporting interior journey.

Girl Going Nowhere - Ashley McBryde For most of the 21st century, women have proven themselves to be MVPs of the country genre. Performers like Kacey Musgraves, Miranda Lambert and early Taylor Swift ignored the bro-culture of the genre, and instead mined their lives for songs about love, the challenges facing small communi-

Cherry Tree Lane is spelled out by a pair of large pink-blossoming trees, painted at the front edges of Vintage Theatre’s wide stage, for “Mary Poppins.”

Bert (a chipper, enIF YOU GO gaging Kalond Irlanda), the cheerful Cockney “Mary Popchimney sweep/narpins” plays rator, appears singing through Jan. and introduces the 6 at Vintage scene and the Banks Theatre, family — who have 1468 Dayton gone through six nanSt., Aurora. nies in the past four Performonths, due to unruly mances: 7:30 Michael and Jane. (We p.m. Fridays, saw talented NathanSaturdays; iel Waite-Lutz and 2:30 p.m.

Hazel Kachline, both Sundays.

Denver School of the VintagethArts students, in the eatre.com, double-cast role.) Kerri 303-856Emswiller is the bewil78e0. (Box dered mom, Winnifred, office open and Michael O’Shea 5-8 p.m. is the pompous father, Wednesdays, George.

Thursdays.)

As lights go up, an angry former nanny storms out and two smug, grinning kids stand on the stair landing, watching. Mom is in tears and Dad mutters “Nannies should govern!” The banker also says “I remain the sovereign of Cherry Tree Lane.” No wonder there’s trouble!

The kids write up a new ad to place in the newspaper, stating what sort of nanny they’d like to see in the position, and poof ! A smiling woman with a carpet bag and umbrella with a green parrot head on its handle appears — carrying a copy of the kids’ ad and repeating some of their requirements.

She introduces herself and says she’s come to care for the children, whom she quickly lines up for a dose from a pink bottle. “A Spoonful of Sugar makes the Medicine Go Down” she sings, then tells Michael and Jane to head upstairs, “Spit! Spot!” She follows them and the magic journey begins for this disturbed family, as Mary pulls a tall hat rack, teapot and cup, green plant and other items she needs out of her magic carpet bag … (which is empty when the kids peer in).

Readers will be familiar with the story, so what they need to know is that Vintage Theatre in Aurora is staging a delightful musical version, based on the books and popular Disney movie.

If you are fortunate enough to have young ones in your life, take them to see it. (If not, go anyhow!) “Mary Pop-

“Mary Poppins,” the musical at Vintage Theatre. Carolyn Lohr as Mary Poppins; Michael O’Shea as a puzzled father, George Banks; Hazel Kachline as Jane Banks and Nathaniel Waite as Michael Banks.

Caroline Lohr, who makes magic in a classroom by day, plays Mary Poppins with a gleam in her eyes, a brisk manner and a great voice. She really is the magical nanny I imagined years ago when this was a favorite book for me.

Mary, and the also magic Bert — her good friend, it turns out — lead Michael and Jane on the first of several magical outings, to the nearby park, where the familiar classical statues, including Neleus (Andy Nuanhgam), begin to dance with them and the Bird Woman enters the scene. “Feed the Birds … ..Tuppence a Bag.” When they return home, Jane says “Daddy, we had a fantastic day — I danced with a statue and met Queen Victoria!”

Household servants Mrs. Brill and Robertson Ay are also astonished as Mary makes lavender frosting appear on a cake and broken dishes whole before they jump back on the shelf.

Another adventure involves Mrs. Corry and a colorfully costumed, dancing group of friends, wearing pastel wigs And, it’s where we are introduced to a new word — and song: “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!”

Work by a large creative team made this standout production flow ... Director Clay White is to be commended for concocting this sugar plum of a holiday entertainment for us.

He directed “Beauty and the Beast” at Vintage, but is fairly recently arrived on our scene, from Texas. We’ll hope to enjoy more of his imaginative work. And the very clever set, designed by Ryan Walkoviak and painted by Julie Lemieux, with Kevin Taylor’s lighting, enhanced Kortney Hanson’s special effects.

Costumes by Cheryl Faulkner and Angie Biederbecke were colorful and so imaginative and Eric Weinstein’s recorded music tracks carried it all along. Adrianne Hampton was choreographer and Brooks Larsen, musical director, while stage manager Lexi Holtzer kept all the pieces together …

McCaffrey, Zemla soared with the Eagles Players of the year from Valor headline All-South Metro team

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Luke McCaffrey and Ethan Zemla were dual threats for the state champion Valor Christian football team and headline the Colorado Community Media All-South Metro football team.

The 26-player team was selected with the assistance of area coaches. Players were eligible from schools in the Douglas County and Littleton districts, plus Valor Christian, Cherry Creek, Englewood and Lutheran high schools.

McCaffrey, the senior quarterback who has committed to play football at Nebraska, is the 2018 Offensive Player of the Year and joins his older brothers Christian and Dylan as CCM Players of the Year.

Zemla, a senior who will continue his education and play football for the University of Pennsylvania, was named the South Metro Defensive Player of the Year.

McCaffrey was double trouble for defenses that attempted to contain him. He

passed for 2,202 yards and 21 touchdowns in helping the Eagles win the state 5A championship. And, he often kept plays and drives alive with his running ability as he rushed for 526 yards and eight TDs. “I thought it was a real good year and I was able to grow a lot because of the people around me that challenged me,” he said. “From an expectations standpoint, I lived up to what I wanted for the year because we reached the final goal to go undefeated and win state.”

Zemla always seemed to be involved in tackles from his linebacker position, but he said he took one for the team when he agreed to be the team’s left guard on offense because the Eagles started the season without players ready to play along the line of scrimmage.

“I thought I played great, especially having to play both sides of the ball,” Zemla said. “I really had to push myself to keep going. Defensively I felt I played really well.”

Zemla ended the season with 149 total tackles, including 94 solo stops. He was in on 8.5 quarterback sacks.

For football, a new class could be in session

new year is approaching and a change could be imminent for the Colorado High School Activities Association’s bigschool football playoffs.

CHSAANow.com reported that admin- OVERTIME istrators from large schools around the state have proposed a plan creating a 6A bracket for the state playoffs that could help with the inequity in the Class 5A playoffs.

According to Jim Benton CHSAANow.com, a total of 12 teams have made the 5A quarterfinals since 2014 and five programs have made it to the quarters all five seasons. Two other schools have advanced to the quarters four of five seasons and two others have gone three times in five seasons.

This is in contrast to 4A, where one team has been a quarterfinalist the past five years.

One idea that will be considered, and one that I like, is all teams would be 5A during the regular season and no league changes would be required.

At the end of the regular season, teams that finish first through eighth in the 5A RPI rankings would go into a 6A bracket for the playoffs and teams 9-24 would be in a 5A bracket and play for the state championship.

The details of the selection criteria need to be resolved, but the new Composite Ranking System recommended for seeding by the football committee could be used. That system employs four data sources: RPI, MaxPreps rankings, Packard rankings and a coaches’ poll.

Jim Thyfault, executive director of athletics and activities for Jeffco Public Schools, was one of the administrators in the meeting who discussed the new 6A playoff bracket idea, along with several other items.

“Due to traveling to meetings and conferences the past couple weeks, we have not been able to meet specifically with our coaches,” he said. “We will be taking a hard look at this idea once we return from the holiday break. There are other factors to this as well, like the 2A, 3A and 4A wanting a bottom-10 league also that we need to consider.

As a district, it is important that we maintain a big picture view and not just get focused on 8-10 teams.”

Smoky Hill this season was undefeated and won the 5A bottom 10 League created for struggling football schools that ranked low in the RPI standings. Smoky Hill qualified for the state playoffs in 2018 after winning a combined eight games in five seasons.

The football committee will continue to debate the idea and get input from the membership before anything is proposed for the future classification system to the Legislative Council for approval in April.

“It is a step in the right direction,” said ThunderRidge coach Doug Nisenson, who has rebuilt the Grizzlies’ program after a couple down seasons. “We are going to have to try things that not everyone sees as the perfect solution if we want to truly fix the problems facing 5A football. The perfect solution to one school is not to another so there will always have to be compromise. I do think it is a fair argument that it will not fix the main problems with 5A football, but it is a start.”

In last season’s 5A playoffs, 24 teams made the bracket, with the top eight

seeds getting first-round byes. Just to show the difference in programs, the average margin of victory in firstround games was 18.5 points.

With the top eight teams playing in the second round, that average victory margin soared to 32.5 points. The quarterfinals had a 16.5 average victory margin and the semifinals were the most competitive and entertaining with the two games decided by five points.

Many coaches favor the new idea.

Castle View won one game in 2017 but was seeded 14th in the 2018 playoffs.

The Sabercats won a first-round game but lost to state runner-up Cherry Creek, 41-14, in the second round.

“The last 10 years, 5A football has been dominated by five or six schools,” said Castle View coach Todd Casebier. “This trend isn’t going to be changing anytime soon. I think this is a great idea.

“I love the idea that other teams will have an opportunity to play in the final four or beyond. If you take out the dominant schools, the majority of 5A is similar. We can have a great 16-team playoff and the dominant teams will play each other just as they do now.

Football in Colorado will get better because of competitive balance. The year any of us have a special team, we will have a chance to play in the 6A playoffs.”

ThunderRidge was seeded eighth, got a first-round bye and edged Fairview in the second round before losing to state champion Valor Christian, 30-17, in the quarterfinals.

“I do think it is a fair argument that it (new idea) will not fix the main problems with 5A football, but it is a start,” added Nisenson.

There are skeptics who say there

will be variables because of injured players returning and teams possibly wanting to avoid the dominant teams.

If a team is ranked eighth heading into the final week, it could be better not to go all out and maybe slip in the rankings to get a high seed in the 5A playoffs instead of going in eighth in the 6A bracket and having to face Valor Christian or another powerful opponent.

“I know we would never do that but some team might,” said Casebier. “I think it would be cool to be in the top eight and something we would hope to achieve.”

Nisenson doesn’t buy the idea that coaches would tank a game to stay in the 5A playoffs.

“Seniors only get 10 regular-season games and I don’t see coaches or players being willing to sacrifice one of those,” he said. “I also do not agree with the argument that this format would make the 5A champion the ninth place team. We do not look at the 4A champion as the 41st place team.

“The seven and eight seeds in the proposed 6A playoffs are not going to be in any different position than they are now. Yes, they may lose in round one or two instead of maybe winning the 5A championships but this is still something that can help build and sustain a program. In terms of what a program looks like from the outside to student athletes who are picking and choosing where they will play, it is a positive to be seen as a 6A playoff team.”

Anne Heathman’s apartment at the Windermere was declared a total loss. Though she’d like to move somewhere else, she’s moving into the Windermere’s other tower because she says there aren’t enough affordable apartments in the area.

e Others are moving into vacant apartments in the Windermere’s other tower, site of a fire in 2016 that also saw more than a hundred residents evicted.

Anne Heathman, 73, is among those moving to the other building, off Windermere Street. Her apartment on the first floor was one of nine that was declared a total loss. She has been unable to retrieve any belongings, she said, including jewelry and souvenirs from her world travels.

She said she doesn’t want to stay at the Windermere, but “the bottom line is there aren’t enough apartments in the area.” Her rent will increase by more than $400, she said.

Virginia Downs, 71, is also moving to the other tower — which she was evicted from after the 2016 fire.

“I’m staying because even with the rent increase, it’s still cheaper than what else is out there,” Downs said.

Moving into other apartments can run into the thousands of dollars, she said, after tallying up application fees, security deposits, first and last month’s

rent and pet fees, she said.

Asked if she’s worried about more fires, Downs said, “I can’t even think about that now. There’s been too much trauma and stress.”

Many residents are struggling with the effects of anguish and trauma, said Kathryn Roy, the executive director of Love Inc., a Christian charity that has worked closely with residents.

The group has trained and dispatched dozens of “navigators,” volunteers who help residents handle not just the agony of losing their homes and belongings, but also the morass of bureaucracy around dealing with insurance and other agencies.

Lyle Wentzel, 76, said the experience has pushed him to the limit.

“I try to keep an even keel, but I’m ready to explode at times,” Wentzel said.

He and his wife Sharon are moving into the Windermere’s other tower, and will pay $300 more per month for an apartment there.

For Pauline Draper, the tasks ahead include being thankful.

“You’ve got to live every day to the fullest,” Draper said. “You can’t carry baggage.”

King Features Weekly Service

© 2018 King Features Synd., Inc.

December 24, 2018

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) It’s a good time to take a much-needed break from your recent hectic schedule and spend some time in quieter surroundings. Important news could arrive early next week.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The Taurean traits of reliability and thoroughness could be well-tested when decision-makers consider your proposals and/or requests. Be prepared to answer some probing questions.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A sudden attack of boredom leaves you with some tasks undone. It’s OK to take a short respite. But get back to work by week’s end so that you have time for other projects.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Avoid prejudging a situation just because it looks bad. Facts could emerge that would make your position uncomfortable, to say the least. A relative has interesting news to share with you.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) This is a good time to begin reassessing some of your recent decisions about your long-range goals to see if they still have merit. Spend more time with loved ones this weekend.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) An unsettled situation at home or on the job early in the week could drain your energy levels, making it difficult to get your work done on schedule.

But things improve by midweek.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A temporary setback could give you time to go over your plans to find weaknesses you might have overlooked before. A romantic getaway with that special person is favored this weekend.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Professional and personal situations benefit once you set a positive tone in getting things off to a good start. Honest dialogue smoothes over any occasional display of balkiness.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A problem with workplace colleagues or family members seems to defy even your sage counsel.

But be patient. Your words eventually will lead to a resolution.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Don’t just wait out that unexpected and unexplained delay in your career move. You could gain added respect if you ask why it happened and what you can do to move things along.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Although your workplace strategies usually are accepted, you could be challenged by someone who isn’t so favorably impressed. Be prepared to defend your positions.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Your friendship circle expands, with new people coming into your life at this time. Welcome them warmly. But don’t neglect those cherished longtime personal relationships.

BORN THIS WEEK: You love to search for knowledge and share it with others. You would make an especially fine teacher.
