Officer released on bond

Johnston ordered to stay away from guns, drugs

to our community,” said Susan Thornton, an LI3 founder.

Mayor Pro Tem Bruce Stahlman noted that everyone in the room, not just the honorees, originated from elsewhere.

“They’ve all added their distinct cultures

Littleton Police Officer Jeffery Johnston, who is facing serious drug charges, was released from federal custody on his promise to return to court.

Johnston, 46, appeared in federal court in Denver July 25 wearing handcuffs and green prison attire. Next to him was his new attorney, Pamela Mackey, who defended Kobe Bryant against sexual-assault charges.

She also represented hockey player Patrick Roy in a domestic-violence case, and convicted sex offender Vincent Margera, aka Don Vito of “Jackass” fame.

Johnston waived his right to a preliminary hearing, and federal prosecutors withdrew their motion to keep him detained while the case makes its way through court.

Johnston signed a $100,000 unsecured bond, which he only has to pay should he fail to make any scheduled court appearances.

Johnston U.S. Magistrate Kristen L. Mix also ordered him to home detention and GPS monitoring. His house had no landline, so it couldn’t accommodate the GPS until phone service was installed, but Mix said Johnston could return home in the meantime.

She told him to stay away from guns and drugs, and to undergo mental-health and substance-abuse evaluations and get treatment should it be deemed appropriate. He must give up his passport, have no contact with potential victims or witnesses in his case and report any contact with law enforcement.

Mix also ordered him to keep or seek employment. LPD Cmdr. Trent Cooper said Johnston remains on unpaid administrative leave and has no police powers at this time.

The 22-year Littleton Police veteran was arrested by the FBI at his Parker home on July 19 after he allegedly paid an informant $1,300 for 37 ecstasy pills and six grams of the drug in powder form.

Authorities say a search of Johnston’s home produced a Colt Officers Model .45-caliber pistol loaded with seven rounds in the magazine and one in the chamber; substances suspected of being cocaine, steroids and hundreds of prescription pills; additional firearms; hundreds of rounds of ammunition; empty pill pouches; a drug test kit; and a scale.

Johnston faces one count of possession of ecstasy with intent to distribute, which carries a penalty of not more than 20 years in federal prison and a fine of not more than $1 million; one count of maintaining

New citizens swear ‘faith and allegiance’ Littleton Center hosts naturalization ceremony

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Native Englishman Jack Durston welcomed fresh Prince George Alexander Louis to the world on July 22, then promptly renounced his allegiance to him three days later.

“I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen,” he said along with 37 other newly minted Americans July 25 during their naturalization ceremony at the Littleton Center.

Durston came to America in 1985, sponsored by his stepmother. Times had been rough in his touristy, seaside hometown of Folkestone, and jobs were scarce.

“I was so young, and there was so much turmoil,” he said. He became a drive-train mechanic in California, where he met his wife, Holly. She and her native land of Littleton convinced Durston he was here to stay.

Meadows apartments over first hurdle Some neighbors fear Wilder school can’t handle more kids

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Several Littleton Planning Board members admitted to feeling confused about the proposal before them July 22, but they voted 5-2 to advise city council to approve the Meadows at Platte Valley apartment complex.

Evergreen Devco, based in Phoenix, wants to rezone an empty field at Mineral Avenue and Platte Canyon Road from commercial to residential. The company plans to build 250 apartments in 10 two- and three-story buildings on 13 acres, along with a dog park, detached parking and a clubhouse. The three acres in the northwest corner along Mineral would be reserved for small commercial, along the lines of a bakery, day care or sandwich shop.

Converting retail to residential has historically been frowned upon in Littleton, with the comprehensive plan emphasiz-

ing the need for sales-tax revenue for the city. But in March, council approved doing just that for Littleton Commons on County Line Road, and at least three other projects pending would do the same.

“Our desire for retail is fine, but it doesn’t drive the market. The market drives the market,” noted board member Mark Rudnicki.

Part of the problem is that there is no official plan for the neighborhood. It didn’t exist when the comprehensive plan was completed in 1985, the same year the current owner bought the land and the city annexed it. And development didn’t start until the mid-1990s, after Mineral was extended to the west across Santa Fe. The owner sold the land across Mineral, which is now a high-end neighborhood of single-family homes, and the land to the east, now the Pinnacle at Mountain Gates apartment complex. But the quest to lure retail to the final plat has been unsuccessful.

“I wish I could deliver you a Sprouts deal,” said Tyler Carlson, managing principal at Evergreen. “That’s what I was hoping

to do.”

Carlson says major retailers are holding out for the “Christmas present” of 1.2 million square feet of retail space that likely will develop at Santa Fe and Mineral. It’s a busier intersection with more rooftops around it, he said.

Jeff Wikstrom, vice president at Evergreen, said a retail project needs 20,000 people within a mile to be successful. The neighborhood was originally zoned for 2,400 units, but only 688 were built. A total of 6,700 people live within a mile.

Ruth McGee, who lives in Pinnacle, said she’s “severely opposed” and would like the site turned into a park.

“We do not need any more people or cars,” she said.

Michelle Miller agreed. She lives in the nearby Overlook subdivision and says there’s been a rash of robberies in the area.

“It doesn’t make you feel good to see a bunch of strangers in your neighborhood.

I don’t want to give offense to anyone,” she said, gesturing toward McGee. Rudnicki responded with what he calls the Rudnicki Axiom: “Never be the last un-

developed piece of property, because the neighborhood will demand a park, even though it’s private property.”

Several people were concerned that children from the new apartments would put too much strain on what they say is an excellent but already overcrowded neighborhood school, Wilder Elementary.

Board member Andrew Graham’s kids go there, and he thinks apartments could contribute to transience in the community.

He worried that people would temporarily move into a rental just to get into Wilder, making it permanently their home school, then move away.

Betty Harris, who has been active with a grassroots group organized against certain high-density projects proposed throughout the city, agreed. “(This project) will cram even more people into this area, where, I’m told, the students and perhaps even some of the teachers already hate the children who live in the Pinnacle,” she said.

The project will get one more public hearing when council makes the final decision, scheduled for Aug. 20.

Supervisors with Littleton Fire Rescue, kidsWest Metro Fire Rescue and South Metro ouldFire Rescue are being trained to talk the unity.same talk. rarily “We run with each other a lot, so we ilder,want to communicate identically,” SMFR hool,Capt. Ken Walker explained during a train-

ing session July 25. with a They’re using the Blue Card Command rtainCertification Program, designed to bring houtdepartments into compliance with national

standards required to be eligible for Homepeo-land Security funds. stu- “Each department wants to get better at each-running a call themselves and, in turn, as a n thegroup,” said Walker. “This way, we can kill

two birds with one stone.” ublic A major focus of Blue Card is the actual deci-words the firefighters are using on scene, so everyone understands each other and radio chatter is minimized. Walker said the goal is to be clear, concise and brisk with their orders.

Capt. Wayne Smith, of Littleton Fire Rescue, listens to orders and keeps an eye on a virtual fire during a training session July 5 at the South Metro Fire Rescue station. Photo by Jennifer Smith “Radio time is very precious, and people can get killed in the first five minutes,” he said.

The supervisors sit in classes, then practice what they learned by running virtual drills on computers, communicating

via real radios. On July 25, the scene was a burning strip mall. They worked on eliminating extraneous words like “at this time” or “please,” and whether to call a particular truck a “ladder” or a “tower.”

“This training and certification program produces incident commanders that make better decisions that will potentially eliminate the lethal and/or costly mistakes that cause injury, death and unnecessary fire losses in the local response area,” according to the program’s website.

There’s been some concern about how long the training takes firefighters out of service. Chief John Mullin said the 50 hours of training for all 39 supervisors will require taking one engine out of service for the duration.

Past training meant down time for two engines and one ambulance, he said, calling this an improvement.

Joel Heinemann, president of the Littleton Firefighters Association, thinks Blue Card will generally be a good thing. But he is concerned that until the whole department is trained, not just the supervisors, it could create confusion.

“In general concept, it’s the right thing to do,” he said. “Anything to improve communication is a step in the right direction.”

Littleton restaurateur Neil Romano dies at 83 Co-founder of landmark eatery gave back to city

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Neil Romano, 83, passed away on July 28.

The co-founder of Romano’s Italian Restaurant on Windermere Street in Littleton had battled stage 4 lung cancer since March.

“He battled cancer, as he did everything, with strength and compassion,” reads a statement by his family. “He will be missed

by family, friends, employees and customers that he touched with his humor and love. And he is back with our mother, Ellie Romano, at what we know was a joyful reunion. Funeral arrangements will be announced.”

Romano Ellie Romano died in May 2012. Married on Nov. 30, 1959, the couple started Romano’s in December 1967.

The Littleton restaurant has become a

local favorite and a city landmark.

“Little did they know what they were creating back in 1967,” son John Romano said after his mother died.

The business boomed from three tables in 700 square feet to 36 tables in 5,000 square feet, and the family opened a location in Highlands Ranch seven years ago.

“It was the people of Littleton that made them successful, so they gave back every chance they could,” said John Romano.

Awards adorning the restaurant’s wall testify to their service, from Western Welcome Week naming them Grand Marshal in

2007, to being recognized for filling empty bowls for Love Inc., to earning a Business Integrity Award from Littleton Rotary, to being inducted into the Foodservice Hall of Fame in 2006.

The couple had three children — Susan Calhoun (Mike), John (Rachelle) and Nicholas (Charlsy) — who gave them eight granddaughters (Audrey Bartlett, Lindsey Bartlett, Molly Bartlett, Carly Calhoun, Jenna Romano, Christina Romano, Traysa Romano and Jordan Romano).

Kids shine despite challenges Housing agency’s scholarship winners have bright futures

‘It’s most important, I think, to work hard and

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com “I think that dreams are possible,” says Sophie Ramirez, who is on her way to proving just that.

Ramirez says she struggled to get where she is today — a recent graduate of Heritage High School with a perfect grade-point average on her way to Colorado College and a career in veterinary medicine, thanks in part to South Metro Housing Options.

She and four other bright young women were honored during a ceremony at SMHO on July 24, recognizing them for winning the agency’s annual scholarship.

“This is one of the highlights of the year,” said Dan Burnham, SMHO executive director. “We had a lot more kids this year, so the competition was pretty stiff. It’s really awesome to see these young people going forward.”

Low-income students throughout the area the agency serves are invited to submit an essay about their career plans; it’s not necessary to be an SMHO client. Students at vocational and technical schools are welcome to apply, as are parents in SMHO housing who are learning new job skills or obtaining college degrees. They’re required to have at least a 2.5 GPA and attend school full time.

Since its inception, the scholarship board has provided more than $80,000 in college assistance.

The program also awards kids for perfect attendance at all grade levels, so Cleve

never give up on yourself.’

Photo by Jennifer Smith Wortham, president of sponsoring corporation Arapahoe County FirstBank, has watched some of them grow up during his 20 years on the board.

“It’s great to see what, we think, makes a difference in people’s lives,” he said. “Especially some of the students we’ve been able to help and see them from start to finish.”

This is the second time the board has been able to help Tam Dang, who just completed her freshman year at the University

of Colorado-Denver with a 4.0 GPA. She’s pursuing a bachelor’s degree in pre-med, inspired by the care that her mom, Yen Pham, received during a bout with cancer.

“I’m very proud of her,” said Pham, as her daughter interpreted.

“I hope she will be persistent in pursuing her major.”

Dang advised the younger four students to do the same.

“It would really help to have a clear goal in mind in college and follow that path,” she said.

That won’t likely be a problem. Kate Armon, for example, graduated from Heritage with a 3.7 GPA and is on her way to Arapahoe Community College to work toward becoming a teacher.

“It’s important to learn and understand everything you can, and to help others do the same thing,” she said.

Her teachers say HHS graduate Allison Kuhlman likes to be challenged, which will be a big asset on her path to becoming a civil engineer.

“I’m really excited to go to (Colorado State University) and grateful to continue my education,” she said.

Anna Abalos’ mom has no doubt her daughter will be successful.

“She’s so accomplished and so structured,” she said. “I know she’ll do very well, because she’s got that work ethic. I’m very proud.”

So far, so good for Abalos; she graduated from Littleton High School with a 3.8 GPA. “It’s most important, I think, to work hard and never give up on yourself,” she said.

Candidate says school district is her passion Warren-Gully spearheaded 2010 mill-levy campaign

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Carrie Warren-Gully lost to Nancy Doty in last year’s Arapahoe County commissioner race, but now she has an opportunity she thinks is a perfect fit.

“This has just been my passion and my work for the last 13 years,” she said.

That’s how long she’s been volunteering for Littleton Public Schools, and now she’s running for a seat on the school board.

Warren-Gully says what makes her unique as a candidate is the extent to which she’s been actively observing what goes on at the state level, and how that’s helped her understand how legislation there affects the district.

“It makes you realize not all schools are the same,” she said. “To get involved at the

statewide level, you see very direct impacts on the classroom. But there are kids outside of Littleton in this state that need an education too. We need to support education statewide, district-wide and right down to the neighborhood school.”

A Centennial resident, her three boys all went to Sandburg Elementary School, Newton Middle School and Arapahoe High School. With her oldest off to college next year, she’s now had the LPS experience from beginning to end and been active at the school and district levels throughout.

Warren-Gully Warren-Gully said that so far, she’s most proud of chairing the committee that got the 2010 mill levy passed despite the recession.

“It was a perfect example of how this community comes together,” she said. “It shows you the community is proud of your

school district and understands the importance of the school district. It says a lot about community and values. And it took so many people from every school, and volunteers from throughout the district. It wasn’t just one person leading the charge. It was enough people spending the time and energy to make this happen.”

The current board is set to decide this month whether to place a bond issue on the November ballot, and Warren-Gully hopes they do. Continuing to defer facility maintenance will only lead to bigger and more expensive problems down the road, she said.

“We have two huge investments that we’re responsible for,” she said. “Our staff and our buildings are what support the students.”

She said her hope is to follow in the footsteps of the current board members.

“It’s really all about how do we continue down the same path,” she said. “There’s no consternation, no dissatisfaction. … Those

of us who have been involved long enough saw the opportunity to continue the work that’s already been done.”

She agrees with her fellow candidate Kelly Perez that she’d hate to see someone’s personal agenda disrupt the spirit of teamwork the current board will bequeath to the next. She believes a broad focus better serves the district rather than a narrow agenda.

“Every year, 13,000 kids show up at our doors, and not one of them is the same as another,” she said.

Three people besides Warren-Gully and Perez have officially declared bids for seats on the Littleton Public Schools Board of Education: Dallas Jones, Robert Reichert and Jack Reutzel.

LPS canceled its last two elections when nobody stepped up to run against the incumbents. This time, Bob Colwell, Renee Howell and Sue Chandler are all finishing their second four-year terms and cannot run again due to term limits.

Demolition man has smashing career H Centennial resident dishes the dirt on derby racing

By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com It’s a dirty job, but somebody’s got to do it.

And according to Tyler Jones of Centennial, that somebody is him.

With his long dark locks and well-tanned hide, Jones looks more like some sort of magazine cover than a demolition derby driver, but the driver of “Pig Pen Racer,” a cannibalized Ford F-250 club cab pickup truck, says the idea of driving around in circles smashing into other vehicles is appealing.

“Where else can I drive like this and not get a ticket,” he said. “Or worse yet, sued?”

Jones was among several derby racers at the Fifth Annual Demolition Derby Race on July 28 at the Arapahoe County Fair.

Open to drivers 16 and older with a valid driver’s license, the all-amateur event pits drivers against each other in a muddy ring, each vying to disable the other by brute

force.

Drivers smash into each other, and the last operational vehicle either advances to the next round or is declared the winner.

Jones, who’s been racing for about eight years, said he purchased the Pig Pen Racer for $800.

“I actually found it on Craigslist,” he said. “And since then, I’ve put another $2,000 into it.”

But according to the doting father, the best upgrade made so far is the custom paint job created by his daughter, featuring the colorful blue and red handprints on the front driver’s side fender.

Although Jones said serious injuries in the sport are rare, he has seen some guys who were “pretty banged up.”

“I can’t say enough about protective gear,” said Jones, who’s never been injured.

“Aside from additional padding within the cab of the truck, I also wear shin guards like hockey players, a helmet and a $600 custom neck brace, just in case.”

He cautioned new drivers to do their homework, and start out small.

“And always wear protective gear,” he said. “Always.”

Harvey behind anti-Clinton super PAC Republican politician sure that former secretary of state will be 2016 nominee

By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com

Colorado state Sen. Ted Harvey has been named the honorary chairman for a national super PAC that went public this past week and has its sights set on stopping a run to the White House for potential Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.

“Hillary will be the nominee,” Harvey said, when asked about targeting her more than three years before the 2016 election.

“I don’t have any doubt that will be the case.

“The Republican Party has always waited until the last minute to try to define themselves and their oppoual nents and you have seen the results oving of that over the last several election cycles. We wanted to make sure that was not going to be the case when it comes to Hillary Clinton. We wanted to start early.”

The Highlands Ranch Republican

said that Clinton is making all the moves typical of a national candidate, and that PACs are sprouting up in support of a Clinton campaign already.

The only other candidates that he and fellow Republicans working on the Stop Hillary PAC are concerned with, Harvey said, are those she endorses.

“Any candidate that she endorses, we will be there to tell the voters who that person is and counteract anything that Hillary Clinton and her campaign do across this country,” he said. “Wherever she is, we will be.

“We are going to Harvey continue to remind the citizens of the United States who Hillary Clinton is and what her background is; her whole history of misleading the American public, whether it was her personal or public behavior, her efforts with the Rose Law Firm, whether it was Whitewater or whether it was Benghazi.”

The organization, “Stop Hillary PAC,” officially filed with the Federal Election Commission in May, but has kept things quiet until now. According to Harvey, the PAC had a very good

week of fundraising in its first week of going public with appearances on Fox News, CNN and a story in the Washington Times.

The group launched its first antiClinton YouTube video July 24 on its website, www.stophillarypac.org, reaching more than 100,000 people by email, Harvey said.

The video had topped 31,000 views

by Colorado Community Media’s July 26 deadline.

Commercials and radio spots are not expected for a while from the group, as Harvey said they plan to keep their efforts focused on social media.

When asked about whom he saw running against Clinton in 2016 if she indeed is the nominee for the Democratic Party, he said he was focused solely on stopping Clinton.

“I am confident that the Republican Party will put up a great nominee in 2016 and will be able to be very competitive against Hillary Clinton, because of the efforts of organizations like the Stop Hillary PAC,” he said.

Calls for comment to Mike Jones, Douglas County Democratic Party Chairman, as well as Democratic U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet were not returned prior to deadline.

opinions / yours and ours

Upbeat signs for FasTracks, but miles to go Take the good with the bad, and, in the end, say it’s all good.

This pragmatic approach to good mental health often fits the public’s journey in large public works projects as well.

A recent survey prepared for RTD — conducted by BCC Research & Consulting — shows a solidly upbeat view to our Regional Transportation District FasTracks system. Passed by voters in 2004, the 0.4 percent sales tax funded project was originally priced at $4.7 billion.

As it happens, the economy tanked in 2008, and the projected budget climbed to more than $6 billion and now sits at $7.4 billion according to RTD’s estimate last year. It is not surprising that this type of expansive project would take its hits — it’s a big deal to build out the Denver metro’s major corridors with commuter rail systems and additional bus rapid transit.

Who can forget the Big Dig? And al-

our view though Mount Rushmore and the Statue of Liberty were not transportation projects, those ambitious ventures ran on fumes from time to time — short on funds and support — before they were completed and the following generations of benefactors pronounced it’s all good.

But now, in some ways we are getting close to feeling darn good about FasTracks.

The recent BCC survey with 800 respondents indicated positive perspectives.

The number for the “somewhat positive to very positive” view of FasTracks has been pulling out of a skid to hit 81 percent this year.

The V-shape amounts to 84 percent in 2007; 80 percent, 2009; 71 percent, 2010; 78 percent, 2011, before rising to better than four out of five respondents.

Those who say FasTracks was a good decision tallied higher than 80 percent as well. In passing, those who say it was a bad decision have pegged at a solid 10 percent to 23 percent in the five survey years, and we recognize this group will be around and can drum up some concerning cost per ride and bus vs. rail numbers.

But for another reason, we have a ways to go to reach the true tipping point.

Many areas of the metro with completed corridor lines have fared well — most recently the W Rail Line from Golden through Lakewood to Denver was completed ahead of schedule in April.

But there is another story up north where the entire North Metro Rail Line, originally projected for completion in late

2015, has been pushed back to sometime after 2035 according to the latest RTD projection although request for proposals could change the date.

Interestingly the survey says Adams County respondents — where the North Metro Rail Line rail will run — tallied 78 percent as “somewhat favorable-very favorable.”

The number is better than Boulder County at 68 percent, but not far behind the other five counties included (Weld, Arapahoe, Douglas, Denver and Jefferson), which ranged 79 to 86 percent.

As for Adams County — pretty amazing for an area that will tread in the have-nots category for a few more decades.

While other cities and countries admire FasTracks, we need to be mindful that all promises should be kept south to north before we can confidently say all good.

We’re a ways away.

letters to the editor Littleton should move forward

Life puts dents in preconceptions I always keep a few apologies handy.

Learning how and when to apologize is very important. I’ve said something or I’ve done something I’ve regretted more times than I want to count.

But I did just that one night. I made a list of my major lapses, and there have been some humdingers. Usually I had a partner, an accomplice, but I never blamed him. He has a Russian name, Smirnoff.

I was told never to ruin a good apology with a bad excuse. I try to follow that advice, but sometimes I have to apologize for my apology. Emails are not always the best way to say you’re sorry.

Sometimes it’s an email that gets me in trouble in the first place. I can be too abrupt, too facetious, too unkind. And the instant that I click “send” I want a redaction that I can’t have.

Some of us don’t apologize. Tough guys don’t apologize because it’s a sign of weakness. Did you hear the words “I’m sorry” or “I regret” during the James “Whitey” Bulger trial?

I have apologized over and over, made amends or attempted to, and it makes me feel a little better. But I hate the fact that I can be a jerk.

I don’t need to express my opinion whenever I have one. But I do.

Having an opinion column puts me on guard about perceived offenses. There might be something to write about.

I am sandwiched by renters, and the houses have been rented countless times since I’ve lived in mine.

My property is groomed. The yards next door haven’t been groomed since Missy Franklin was born, and the homeowners association knows my voice. (Note: The current renters are exceptions.)

Everyone doesn’t have the time or money to groom a yard, or the health or the energy.

I just started driving with Meals For Wheels. I’m doing it for a number of reasons. I need to get out of the house, because isolating is not healthy for someone like me.

And I need to be reminded about what’s important.

I was offered Route 7, which takes me around parts of Englewood I have never seen before. Many of the homes look tired,

and the homeowners look tired too — but they are doing the best they can.

Yards and porches are littered. Things are left where they were last used, and that may have been weeks, months, or years.

Doors open when I knock with a meal, and a smiling face looks at me. There is always a smiling face, and the old grouch smiles right back. I know I might be the only human being they talk with on Fridays.

Many of them have devoted dogs. Bless our dogs, right?

I don’t know any of them, but I can see biographical details everywhere, like military decals and affectionately arranged flower beds.

Most of their yards need makeovers. I would have been on the phone if I lived next to them. But not now.

When I hand them a meal I see a graying life at the train station, with a ticket for the next destination. I might be looking at a World War II veteran or a greatgrandmother no one cares about anymore except relatives, maybe.

All but a few live alone. I live alone. It’s easy for me to see myself in them, someday.

One woman has animal shelter eyes. I can’t get them out of my mind. I told her to “Behave this weekend, and I will see you next Friday.”

She broke into a smile, and so did I. The yards next door to me look fine. I’m sorry I felt otherwise.

I plan to write about Route 7 again. I’ve said this before: I’m still learning.

Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast. net

As a longtime resident and business owner in Littleton, I was initially attracted to the city by its charm and character which are unique in the south metro area. Over the last 10 years I have moved my children from a private school to LPS schools, I have moved my business to the downtown area and I have become a strong advocate for creating a 21st-century city with 19th-century values. This is a vision that allows Littleton to be relevant to the business and cultural environment that exists, not trying to create an artificial small-town atmosphere from a time gone by.

To achieve this vision, Littleton must continue to develop for tomorrow’s generation, not yesterday’s. We must invest in 21st-century infrastructure and participate in economic development programs that support the entire region. We cannot isolate ourselves. One trend that is currently at work throughout the metro area is the rise of multi-family apartment developments such as Littleton Commons, Nevada Place, Broadstone and the Marathon Oil redevelopment; we should not fear this trend but we should help shape it to graft these developments into our community. The Marathon Oil site is a responsible redevel-

Sitting behind the steering wheel can reveal what is in the heart!

The guy behind me did not think I was going fast enough, but I was going as fast as I could. My commute to Castle Rock was all the way from Lakewood in my Jeep Wrangler. Air conditioning in my Jeep is taking the windows off, so I wanted to go fast. The pedal was to the floor, but the slower traffic just past the hospital slowed my momentum, so I couldn’t get my little four-cylinder to go past 60 mph as I headed up the hill towards Castle Pines a few miles later.

My Jeep has a little over 250,000 miles on it, so I knew what was going to happen and got all the way over into the right lane. In my rear-view mirror I could see him waving his hands and saying things that I probably shouldn’t put in the paper.

Did he love his wife and kids so much that he was that eager to see them? Did he not recognize there were three lanes to our left so that he could pass me? Did he not know I was going as fast as I possibly could and that I too loved my family and wanted to get home?

He continued to express his anger when

I kept going straight and he exited. For the few seconds our vehicles were next to each other he lectured me with his horn.

It did not warn me I made a mistake or try to caution me for some reason. It was his expression of anger and disapproval of me.

I was in his way and, apparently, who he was and whatever he was doing was more important and/or correct than who I was and what I was doing.

Discourtesy is really disregard for others. It does not honor who they are or consider what they are going through.

I have caught myself making similar mistakes. The guy in front of me at the coffee shop was way to slow in find-

ing his parking place. “Come on Pops,” I mumbled. “It’s not that complicated. Just put your car into an open space.” You can imagine my chagrin when I saw him get the wheelchair out of his trunk and place his adult son in it so they could enjoy a dose of caffeine.

Early one morning I was completing a hospice call. A mother had passed and the grieving family left our facility and headed to their cars. We had been together so I stood still and watched them leave. Since they were getting in their cars, it occurred to me that these dozen people were going to head back into everyday life with weeping inside of them and the people at their work, school, stores and in traffic were going to have no idea how much they were grieving.

Maybe one of them was the person that did not go the instant the light turns green, lost in their thoughts.

Church parking lots can reveal the level of spiritual maturity of the congregation and the effectiveness of the sermon. A few minutes after they were singing praises, praying about their needs and being exhorted from the Holy Scriptures, they will

have the opportunity to prove how much they can let it affect their lives by the way the drive.

And if you are going to be an aggressive driver, please save the reputation of all of us Christians and do not put a fish on your car or a bumper sticker about your church.

It is a bad testimony, because it shows that you really do not respect other people, let alone the law.

I would like to find a cure for cancer, eliminate crime, fix the economy and usher in world peace. But I probably should not worry about such grand things until I actually do something that is possible every time I get behind the steering wheel.

That challenge reveals what is in my heart and that is something God can change and it will be a difference many times every day.

Figure out what it is that you really want Do you remember the pop song by the Spice Girls, “Tell me what you want, what you really really want, I’ll tell you what I want, what I really really want”? And then the lyrics are repeated several times.

Have you ever been asked, “What is it that you really want?” Or maybe you have even asked yourself, “What is it that I want the most in life?” Does your answer change based on either situation? I often find that we tend to be more guarded when answering the question about what we want when asked by another person, and much more honest and deep when we look ourselves in the mirror and answer ourselves when no one else is around.

Do we want material things? Do we want money? Do we want love? What is the thing we want most in this life?

After 40 years of research, The Zig Ziglar Organization netted the list down to eight things that people really really want: To be happy, to be healthy, to be reasonably prosperous (and some people would like to be unreasonably prosperous), to have security, true friends, peace, solid family relationships and hope.

Think about it, would you trade your happiness, health, prosperity, security, friendship, peace, family relationships and

hope for a second or third home, a new car, jewelry, a good time, or even a great time? And does there absolutely have to be one or the other? I am a big proponent of “and” not “or,” and believe if we strive for the things we want without compromising our character or integrity we can have all of the material things we desire as well as all of the more important things that money will not buy.

One of the things that I really really want in life is peace. And this is one of the reasons I really love living here in Colorado. There is such a fantastic sense of peace when hiking in the mountains, walking in our open spaces, skiing on through the trees or in a secluded or quiet area on the hill. Sure, skiing requires equipment, proper clothing and a ski pass, but hiking and walking bring me peace with absolutely no

investment from me other than my time.

Our sunrises and sunsets observed each morning and evening bring me peace and hope, and once again without any cost.

I set goals and pursue dreams. And when I look at the list of eight things that we all want, at some level I recognize that I am doing OK in several areas but still need to develop and grow in others. I would encourage you to write the list of these eight topic, Happy, Healthy, Reasonably Prosperous, Secure, Friendship, Peace, Family Relationships and Hope. Next to each one just simply put a check mark next to the ones you feel you are doing well in and an asterisk next to the ones you want to see yourself develop.

Once we have reached an acceptable level in all eight areas, we can enjoy all of the things this life offers in every aspect of our lives. And it always amazes me that when someone shares with me that they have strengthened each of these areas, that some of their material desires and other things simply fall into place too.

How are you doing in these eight categories? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com and together let’s make this a better than good week.

Car show planned on Windermere Chamber urging restoration firms to display vehicles

By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com The city will again be the site of a car show, thanks to the efforts of the Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce.

The show will be held from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. Aug. 10 on South Windermere Street between Kenyon and Nassau avenues. Colleen Mello, chamber director, said the site was selected because it is roomy plus it is near numerous firms, like Bodies by Brown and 3R Automotive, that are in the vehicle restoration business.

Plans are to have food and beverage ven-

dors on site and T.J. Harris will be providing the music for the event.

There is no charge for admission but there is a $10 fee to enter a car in the show.

However, Mello said the entrance fees will help raise the money for the Englewood Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 322 project to assist homeless veterans by purchasing items like sleeping bags, socks and coats for them.

The downtown area was the site of three Englewood Days Car Shows in years past.

Each year, several hundred owners brought their cars to the event. Unfortunately, the downtown car show ended in 2009.

Mello said the Aug. 10 event is an effort to revive the show and hopefully build on the excitement the Englewood Days Car Show created.

The 38 honored that night represented 21 different countries.

There were 18 from Mexico, two from Cameroon and one each from countries as diverse as the Netherlands, Poland, Bosnia and Ethiopia.

Mayor Debbie Brinkman encouraged them all to actively engage in their new country.

“As you embrace your rights and responsibilities of being American, I hope you will take advantage of all our country both offers and expects,” she said.

To that end, representatives from Mi Familia Vota were on hand to register the new citizens to vote before they even left the building, and business was brisk.

Funfest returning to Belleview Park Englewood bills event as hometown fair with a flair

By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com About all that will be missing is the guy in the red-striped vest urging people to step right up, as a wide variety of attractions and activities are scheduled during the Aug. 10 Englewood Funfest.

This marks the 16th year the Englewood Parks and Recreation Department will organize the event that is billed that as a hometown fair with a flair. It is held at Belleview Park at Belleview Avenue and Inca Street.

“We have almost all the activities we have had in past years,” said Tara Micheli, one of the recreation program administra-

e

ding

but how. s will wood oject asing ts for

hree past. ught , the

effort d on Car

tors helping organize the event. “We also have some new activities. For example, the Museum of Outdoor Arts will be there to conduct a coloring contest, and we will have a display of all kinds of drums where children can experience what it is like to play them. It should be loud.”

Each year, the event transforms portions of the park into what resembles a carnival midway.

City departments and local organizations will set up a number of information and activity booths to let people know about their activities.

Private companies complete the fair-like atmosphere by setting up games and attractions like inflatable bounce castles. Admission to Funfest is free, but there is a charge for some of the attractions and to buy food from vendors.

Again this year Funfest features many hands-on activities. Plans are to have an opportunity for individuals to do chalk art, and Lowe’s Home Improvement will again have a booth with kits for children to build items. In past years, children have built items like birdhouses and book racks from the kits.

The duck races return this year and the proceeds of the event will benefit the recreation department’s youth council. Also, this year, there will be cash prizes for the top four places.

Annually, there will be a lot of free activities, including a pit filled with plastic balls as a play area for small children. It is expected there will again be a booth where children could make bracelets or refrigerator magnets.

The stage is a big attraction as children

of all ages display the dancing and other artistic talents they learned in recreation classes.

The weather can be quite warm, so each year, the recreation department sets up canopies to provide shade for friends and family who came to watch the entertainment.

Last year, Angela Perking said she drove from Boulder to take pictures of the daughters of several friends who were dancing with their classmates.

She said it was great the city had all the different dance classes for kids and then provided the opportunity for them to perform.

Two regular Belleview attractions, the miniature train and the children’s farm, will be open and are again expected to attract crowds.

REAL ESTATE AGENT SPOTLIGHT OF THE WEEK What is your specialty and what does that mean for changed a great deal compared to what it was about a year Ben Eyasu ago. the people you work with?

Managing Broker RE Professionals 10200 E. Girard Ave #B230 Denver, CO 80231 720-365-7981 Ben.eyasu@gmail.com www.reproscolorado.com Where were you born?

I was born in Ethiopia and grew up in San Francisco.

How long have you lived in the area?

I moved to Colorado in 2002 and have been here since.

What do you like most about it?

I like Colorado for its beautiful mountains, the fourseason weather, and the variety of outdoor activities it offers.

Colorado also has great people, an easy/laid back lifestyle, and a great place to raise a family.

I specialize in Residential Real Estate with first time homebuyers and investors. I invest a great deal of time researching the market in the area and keeping myself informed with the ever-changing market. I point my clients to the appropriate resources when they are not clear on where to get the right information pertaining to the home buying process. I facilitate that service by collaborating with other credible financial agency representatives, government program experts, home inspection agents etc., with the intent of simplifying what can be an overwhelming task to my clients. My clients appreciate my honesty and integrity, and most importantly, feel at ease to come to me with any questions.

What is the most challenging part of what you do?

I currently find most challenging the changes happening in the real estate market in Colorado. The real estate market has

What do you most enjoy doing when you’re not working?

I love spending my free time with my 10-month-old son and family. We enjoy traveling, watching sporting events, and all the great outdoor activities that Colorado has to offer.

What is one tip you have for someone looking to sell a house?

My advice would be to de-clutter the house, have it smell clean and fresh, and give it an inviting appeal.

What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy a house?

Have patience. Looking for a home can be a tasking experience, but with the right attitude and understanding of what the market has to offer, it can also be fun.

What is the most unusual thing you have encountered while working in Real Estate?

Sitting at a closing, a buyer literally came with a suitcase full of cash. The buyer had to redeposit before we can close.

How long have you worked in Real Estate?

I have been working in the Real Estate for eight years now.

‘Nightmares’ for eateries

A pair of curious goats in search of snacks and a scratch behind the ear greet fairgoers at the 2013 Arapahoe County Fair, which wrapped up its five-day run on July 28.

That’s a wrap Photos by Deborah GriGsby

All kinds of crazy midway rides could be found at this year’s Arapahoe County Fair. Visitors of all ages — and nerve levels — could certainly find something to their liking. Rides ranged from the traditional to the terrifying.

The 2013 Arapahoe County Fair, one of the traditional indicators that summer is winding down, wrapped up its five-day run at the county fairgrounds in Aurora.

The annual community event celebrates the county’s deep roots in agriculture and livestock, as well as some of the tastiest treats from local kitchens. Along with traditional carnival rides and food, visitors enjoyed pig races, tractor pulls, a demolition derby and live music from several local bands.

Phamaly company revisits a classic Beloved ‘Fiddler’ comes to downtown Denver

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Since “Fiddler on the Roof” first was produced on Broadway in 1964, it has been so popular that its music and story of human strengths have become part of our cultural fabric: “Tradition,” “Sunrise, Sunset,” “To Life …”

Theater companies around the world produce it and audiences come with children and grandchildren to see it over and over, reliving a piece of history for many families with Russian ancestors.

Phamaly, a theater company for actors with physical, emotional and cognitive disabilities, has chosen it as the 2013 summer musical production and delivers a lovely, well-paced musical through Aug. 11 at Denver Center for the Performing Arts, with fine voices and nice staging, directed by Steve Wilson. Choreographed by Debbie Stark, with musical direction by Donna Debreceni, it speaks to spirit and strength.

Russian painter Marc Chagall’s “The Fiddler” and other like images in his work are cited as inspiration in an online history of the musical, based on Sholem Aleichem’s story, “Tevye’s Daughters” or “Tevye the Milkman.” Of special note in this production are mother and son fiddlers: Sophia

if you Go “Fiddler on the Roof” plays through Aug. 11 at the Space Theatre, Denver Performing Arts Complex. Presented by Phamaly, with performances at 7:30 p.m.

Fridays, Saturdays and 2 p.m. Sundays. Tickets: $30/$34, 303-893-4100, phamaly.org. or the Denver Center ticket office.

Hummel, a student at San Francisco Conservatory, plays with a special bowing device because her right arm is amputated below the elbow, and 11-year-old Leslie Wilburn, concertmaster in the Denver Young Artists Orchestra, is polished and assured as he appears more frequently than is usual in “Fiddler” productions.

Mark Disette is playing Tevye a second time for Phamaly, and portrays the milkman’s mixture of stubbornness and good humor skillfully. We can relate to this traditional Papa with stubborn daughters — and Rachel Van Scoy, Kenzie Kilroy and Lindsay Palmer as the marriageable daughters are charming and determined.

Kathleen Traylor, an original Phamaly member, plays the conservative mother/ wife Golde and Ashley Kelashian takes over the stage when she appears as the village matchmaker Yente.

The “Tevye’s Dream” sequence is especially imaginative, with Grandma Fruma in a flying wheelchair.

This is an ideal play for a family outing

Gordon Ramsay, the chef who puts the terror into every restaurant owner, returns for a sixth season as he treks across the country to help struggling restaurants keep their businesses above water (and in some cases cockroaches, rats, etc).

When all seems to be in desperate despair, the restaurant owners turn to Ramsay and his team for one last hope before having to shut their doors. Many of these restaurants are beyond repair, leaving Ramsay to face a nearly impossible task. Some will close their doors, others will get back on their feet, but all are calling on Chef Ramsay to wake them up from their “Kitchen Nightmares,” airing at 7 p.m.

Mondays on Fox 31.

You’ll have chances to view local operations, after Ramsay’s “Kitchen Nightmares” made two stops in the Denver metro area last month. The kitchen commander visited Pantaleone’s on July 26 and Old Neighborhood in Arvada July 27-30. Be afraid, be very afraid!

The Old Neighborhood has been an Arvada institution since 1980, serving a diverse menu of American, Mexican, Italian, French, Asian and even Cajun-inspired foods. Owners Alexa and Randy Kowalczyk are sure to be in for a test from Ramsay when it comes to Old Neighborhood’s gigantic menu.

Pantaleone’s is a pizza and pasta restaurant at 2120 S. Holly in south Denver. Mr. On The Town and I visited Panteleone’s 10 years ago or so for a story he was writing on Denver’s best pizza and we left unimpressed. Still, many have raved about the pizza and pasta place owned by Pete and Paulette Fafalios.

Look for the episodes later this summer on Fox 31.

Best of luck to both restaurants!

American Ninja

Am I the only weirdo who watched “American Ninja” on 9News on July 22?

Why? Because they filmed the segment in Denver a few blocks from my condo, but I knew nothing about it.

The host is Matt Iseman, a Denver native. Iseman even talked about how happy he was to be back in his hometown during the show. The show is entertaining in the fact that it’s fiercely competitive while these folks compete in crazy stunts that defy all odds of gravity.

The show is continuing at 7 p.m. Mondays. Rich Grant, the spokesmodel for Visit Denver, told me that the crew filmed all through the night roughly five weeks ago.

The show was shot in Civic Center and really highlights downtown Denver in the dark.

Wicket games

Sophia Hummel performs as the fiddler and Leslie Wilburn as her son, also a fiddler, in Phamaly’s “Fiddler on the Roof.” She has a special bow because her right arm was amputated at the elbow. Courtesy illustration with all but the littlest people. It offers a fine production of a story everyone should know, with clever staging and a lively band — and an introduction to some very courageous performers.

Denver’s premier croquet tournament returns to Cherry Creek on Aug. 2 when 60 teams compete on the outdoor plaza behind Elway’s restaurant.

Up for grabs is the Wicket and Stick It silver cup or in the individual categories, which include best dressed, best hat and best wicket shot.

Professional croquet master Ron Eccles and his team of croquet referees will be on hand to provide instruction and insider tips. Prized categories include top three teams, best dressed team, best dressed male and female, best hat male and female and best wicket shot.

Littleton author wins Colorado Book Award Anthology had roots in Columbine tragedy

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com On June 21, Carolyn Mears of Littleton was presented with the 2013 Colorado Book Award for Anthology for her 2012 book, “Reclaiming School in the Aftermath of Trauma: Advice Based on Experiences” (Palgrave Macmillan). The awards ceremonies were held in Aspen.

The annual Colorado Book Awards, in a number of categories, are given by The Colorado Center for the Book, a program of the Colorado Humanities, affiliated with the Library of Congress Center for the Book in Washington, D.C. The organization, a nonprofit affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities, has an office in Greenwood Village and supports literary, cultural and historical programs throughout the state.

Mears’ experiences began on April 20, 1999. Her younger son was a student at Columbine High School when the shooting tragedy happened. “Severely exposed to violence one should never have to,” she said, he ended up hiding in a closet with others.

There were about three hours of “that unknowing piece — was he alive?”

“That’s the beginning. There was no preparation for schools, teachers, counselors ... Thinking things will go back to how it used to be is a myth — for kids, teachers, parents, community. It was a shattering of

As an educator, Mears determined to return to school and embarked on an awardwinning Ph.D. thesis project, published as “Experiences of Columbine Parents in Finding the Way to Tomorrow.”

A network began that reached across the world. “But when I speak, I speak as a Columbine mom. I trust people who have lived

the experience.”

She developed a research method. She had inquiries from around the world about “what did the teachers do?”

It was back to the drawing board. She needed to go beyond being a Columbine mom. A federal grant was available to aid in research for Mears, who is a dissertation adviser and adjunct faculty at the University

of Denver’s Morgridge College of Education and is a member of the Trauma Certification Board of the DU Graduate School of Social Work.

She is called on to speak nationally and internationally about such topics as trauma response and recovery after school shootings, safe school environments, leadership in times of crisis and narrative research.

“Everyone on the globe will experience or know someone who has experienced a traumatic event,” Mears said.

For her 12-chapter anthology, she connected with people at Virginia Tech over the shooting there; the Lusher Charter School in New Orleans about Hurricane Katrina experiences; the New York Law School, near the World Trade Center, about 9/11; and the Joleka Center School in Finland, where there was a school shooting in 2007. She interviewed in some cases and included writing by others.

Mears asked: “Tell me briefly your story/ experience.

What did you find helpful?” There were more than 100 interviews and she used her material from Columbine parents. “I really wanted to be sure their voices came through — I don’t own their life experience nor their words. It’s important that people are not victimized.”

“It’s a tough read,” she says of her anthology. However, “it’s a book not of sorrow, but of hope.”

‘Accidental Tenor’ describes journey Singer shares his story with members of opera guild

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews. com When Andrew Lunsford was 15, he saw “Phantom of the Opera” onstage, and although he remembers not being happy about it, he knew all the words because his sister played the record constantly. “I learn best through my ears,” he said.

That led to a visit to “Les Miserables,” where his jaw dropped when that chandelier fell. He got a CD. Another CD in the basement was “Opera’s Greatest Hits.” He sang along. He played a guitar at 15, but couldn’t read music.

He married and had a young family and a growing business in construction — “I also had a passion for business.” Then the bottom fell out of homebuilding and his business cratered.

“It might be fun to learn an aria,” he thought and his dad took him to Rockland Music in Lakewood. “Looking for an opera song” — “You mean an aria?” the clerk wondered. He talked about

denver lyric operA guild For prospective members The fall season begins on Sept. 17 at Inverness Hotel and Conference Center in Arapahoe County with an evening program by Central City Opera, “Smooth Operator.” ($55).

Luncheons cost $30 usually. See: denverlyricoperaguild.org for information, or contact president Linda Young, 303-778-1906, eugeneyoung934@comcast.net. “tenorish arias” — “sad, depressing ... empty chairs, empty tables … the baritone always gets the girl.”

His bankruptcy lawyer had heard him sing and suggested he look into performing at the Brown Palace Hotel, where he sand “Nessun Dorma” from “Turandot” and “This is the Moment” from “Jekyll and Hyde.” “I sang in `Beauty and the Beast’ for Performance Now,” he recalled, and was invited back for “Thoroughly Modern Millie.”

A new journey had begun. He spoke to members of the Denver Lyric Opera Guild on July 18 at the group’s summer luncheon, interspersing his story with favorite arias. He was accompanied by Gerald Holbrook and in sang duets with soprano Kimberli Render on two arias. (She was DLOG’s winner last year and will be teach-

Tenor Andrew Lunsford performs “The Story of an Accidental Tenor” for the Denver Lyric Opera Guild. Courtesy photo ing at CSU this year.)

He started work with a voice teacher, sang in a “Five Tenors” concert for Denver Lyric Opera Guild and won the group’s annual

competition for young singers.

A full ride scholarship to Indiana University’s famed music school followed.

While there, he performed at

the Kennedy Center and in April debuted at Carnegie Hall in New York.

He thought of his feet standing in the same place as great singers from the past.

He just finished at Indiana — at age 34 — and has a number of engagements on his calendar as he starts on a professional career as an operatic tenor. In May 2014, he will sing with Opera Fort Collins, with Kimberli.

He closed by saying how very much the support from the guild has meant to him. “It means we have a chance.”

“We give away more money than any comparable organization in the country,” said active member Jane Gibson.

Denver Lyric Opera Guild membership is open to all who are interested. The group meets monthly through the academic year, at various venues, for “Opera on Tuesday” — lunch and an opera-related program. It also hosts a Master Class and Preliminary and Final Competitions each year. (March 2014 dates are announced.) The competitions, at Bethany Lutheran Church in Englewood in 2013, are free and open to the public — offering a chance to hear wonderful young voices.

Golf fun for charity

I have had the rare privilege of being asked to participate (a.k.a. play) in the Hyde Park Jewelers charity golf tournament for the 14 years that it’s been in existence.

But the night preceding the tourney can be even more of a reunion between athletes and journalists who gathered on July 21 at Elway’s Cherry Creek for an amazing dinner and event led by one of my favorite media personalities, Les Shapiro (host of radio and television).

Not only was the dinner amazing — I’m saying steak and crazy corn with guacamole and pepitas — but our lovely “Table 26” was filled with the might and right.

Because Les Shapiro is so good to me, I got to play as a “celebrity” fifth

Women’s golf on the upswing Solheim puts spotlight on advances in sport

By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Many of the elite players from the Ladies Professional Golf Association and Ladies European Tour will be heading to Parker for the Solheim Cup later this month. The biennial, prestigious match-play tournament pits 12 U.S.-born professionals against 12 European counterparts.

Colorado golf fans will see accurate drives, pinpoint approach shots and clutch putts during the event, which will be held Aug. 13-18 at the Colorado Golf Club. The statistics show these players are hitting longer and scoring lower than ever before. But are the elite women of today really more skilled that the top players of yesteryear?

That’s a debatable topic, because golf balls and equipment keep improving and make it easier for those golfers who have correct swing techniques to flirt with or better par.

“Overall, more women are playing the game globally,” said 59-year-old Denver resident Hollis Stacy, who won 18 LPGA tournaments and collected four victories in majors during her 26-year career. “The same scores are winning on the LPGA and European tours. Golf is more competitive.

There are more people shooting those low scores and winning.

“What happened in the game is the equipment is much better. The skill levels have remained the same. We had women on the tour drive the ball 270 yards. If we had the same equipment and balls the players have now, the drives would be in the 300s.”

Donna H. White, an LPGA teaching professional who played 15 seasons on the tour and won three events before retiring in 1992, claims today’s players are taking advantage of opportunities.

“I am quite confident given the ball of today and agronomic grooming of fairways and greens that Mickey Wright’s scoring average would be 67 or better,” said White.

“I don’t think players today are any more skilled. I believe they have been exposed to greater opportunities than mine or previous generations.”

Wright won 82 tournaments in 14 years on the LPGA Tour, including four U.S. Women’s Opens and three LPGA Championships. She retired from the tour in 1969 and won four consecutive Vare Trophies, the award that goes to the player with the lowest scoring average.

The lowest scoring average for Wright was 72.46 in 1960. For the past 16 seasons, the LPGA’s Vare winner has had an average of 70.21 or lower. In fact, no winner has had an average higher than 71 since 1977.

White credits better competitive exposure, technology and fitness for the improved statistics for current professionals.

“My era was the first to benefit from Title IX,” explained White. “Beth Daniel, Nancy Lopez and myself were able to attend college and gain invaluable competitive experience prior to joining the tour. Today kids can play in a tournament starting at age 4 every weekend. Tour players before me had to join the tour to compete. I couldn’t play soccer or baseball in my era. Today girls can play any sport they want. The skills and competitive maturity transfers nicely to

“The ball is the most influential technology advancement. Also video analysis.

Health and fitness was always important to me. I ran and trained but few of my fellow tour players would join me. Then in the early-mid ‘80s , the health boom happened and we had fitness vans on tour weekly.”

Mike Scanlan, LPGA Director of Media Communications, didn’t have the chance to watch some of the LPGA’s former standouts.

“Whether or not players on the LPGA today are better than those in past generations is a subjective question,” he said.

“I think the depth of the LPGA is certainly greater than it’s ever been thanks in large part to the growth of the game globally. Scoring averages are between one and two strokes better than they were in 1980, but advancements in technology must factor into that debate. Whether you look at 1950, 1980 or today, the best players in the world are playing on the LPGA.” Janet Moore, a five-time Colorado stroke play champion who spends part of the year in Illinois as Wheaton College’s women’s golf coach, has watched women’s golf and the skills of players grow in the state.

“I’ve seen golf in Colorado grow over the years and I’ve seen the caliber of play improve greatly,” said Moore. “It seems like the juniors are getting younger and younger and better and better. That’s very exciting.

“I started playing when I was 10. I played because my family played. From what I’ve seen, the game has grown and the interest has grown for young girls. The caliber of play has improved. Just in the high school ranks now you need three or four good players to do well. It has changed quite a bit. I played on my boys high school team.

They didn’t have a girls team. I went to Wheat Ridge High School and they let me play on the boys team.”

Colorado Women’s Golf Association Executive Director Robin Jervey noted enhanced play in Colorado tournaments.

“We run 10 state championships, and looking at who plays in the championship flights of those events, the handicaps of the elite players have been going down,” said Jervey. “And there is more depth.”

Globalization of the LPGA tour, better equipment and the tour’s attempt to promote physically attractive players has made women’s golf more appealing, and events like the Solheim Cup may spark a desire for more women to start playing.

“I know when the Women’s Open came to Cherry Hills in 2005, they had record crowds,” said Jervey. “It only had to help interest in the women’s game because it got people excited to see people of that skill level right in their own backyard. Both the CGA and CWGA have been offering discounts to our members to purchase tickets to the Solheim Cup. “People going to the Solheim Cup get to participate in something that probably won’t come to Colorado again. The Ryder Cup and Solheim Cup move around quite a bit. With it going overseas and back every two years, there’s a slim chance it would wind up in Colorado again, or if it does, it will be a long time from now. People should take advantage of this opportunity.”

Moore agrees.

“I would think having a prestigious event like the Solheim Cup in Colorado would certainly make a positive impact on the golfing community in general,” she said. “I think it would spur interest.”

The Solheim Cup, featuring 12-player women’s teams from Europe and the United States in a match play tournament, will be held Aug. 13-18 at the Colorado Golf Club in Parker. Here are some things you may not know: • Kids get in free. All youngsters age 17 and under who are accompanied by a ticketed adult receive free admission to the Solheim Cup. There will also be a Solheim Cup for Kids program, an organized schedule of activities such as a scavenger hunt, face painting, daily drawings, interactive golf lessons and a behind-the-scenes tour of the event. For more information, go to www. solheimcupusa.com • First-tee shenanigans are part of the fun when attending the Solheim Cup. Unlike a typical tournament, the first tee is the place to be and you might even hear “Yankee Doodle” being sung.

When players tee off each day, the atmosphere is raucous with fans from both sides yelling, chanting and singing songs to encourage players on the respective teams.

• The three captains for the European team — captain Liselotte Neumann and assistants Annika Sorenstam and Carin Koch — are Swedish. “The three of us know each other very well,” said Sorenstam. “There will be some Swedish discussions so nobody will know what we’re talking about.

We’ll keep that strategy to ourselves.”

• European assistant captain Annika Sorenstam is married to Mike McGee, who is a U.S. citizen. “I told him you can come,” she said, “but only if you cheer for Europe.”

• The United States has won eight of the 12 Solheim Cups and the Americas are 6-0 in matches played on U.S. soil. “Having the crowd on your side is huge,” European captain Neumann admitted. “Obviously that will be one of the challenges for us. Coming into the U.S., the crowd will be big and not too many will be cheering for us. We’re trying to bring as many friends, family and fans that we can. We just hope the Europeans that come are really loud.”

• Juli Inkster has earned the most points for the United States in Solheim Cup matches. Inkster scored 18½ points in nine Solheim events (15-12-7) for 54.41 percent of points earned. Meg Mallon, this year’s U.S. captain, won 16½ points (13-9-7) with 83.33 percent of points earned in eight Solheim tournaments. For the Europeans, Laura Davies played in all 12 of the previous Solheim events and won 25 points (22-18-6) with 54.35 percent of points earned.
