weeks, but started walking about 100 miles a month to try and get back to my old self.

Balance is still an area I’m working on.

Stroke survivor and avid fitness enthusiast About me I lived in Colorado for most of my life, though I am originally from Kentucky. I came out here when 8 or 9, and we lived in Tabernash for four years, and when I was a sophomore we moved to Ft. Morgan.

I’ve lived in Lakewood area since about 1999, and currently work for ChemStation of the Rockies. I have two kids, and live with my girlfriend and her two kids.

A passion for fitness I really like rucking — where you do exercise and other activities with a weighted backpack. It allows you to really exert yourself without the strain on your body that comes from activities like running. You can add weight to an activity you want to do, and you get the same level of accomplishment.

I also like to do obstacle course races, like Spartan Races and Tough Mudder.

Lakewood resident James Finch rucking on a hike. Finch is an avid rucker, which means he wears weighted backpacks while exercising. He still does this, even after suffering a stroke in 2016.

COURTESY PHOTO I started doing the Bataan Memorial Death March which is held at the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico.

I’ve done it several times, but I had my stroke two weeks before the race in March 2016.

Getting back to my old self I was 38 when I had my stroke, and had to spend nine days in the Intensive Care Unit and was in rehab for another 21 days. I had a vertebral artery dissection, which meant a tear in an artery that clotted, and then the clots broke free.

I used a cane for a couple

Making major gains I’m still working on getting back to where I was before the stroke. There are some residual side effects still, and I’m working on getting back my control and muscle strength.

I still workout, just not as intensely as before. I don’t quite have the drive to work out that I did before, but there are a lot of changes I’m still getting accustomed to.

Last year I did the Comeback Trail 5k (a National Stroke Association 5k at Hudson Gardens) unassisted, and that was a big deal for me.

Doing it without a cane was just amazing.

Now that I know I can go the distance, it’s about getting my speed back up so I can feel like a runner again. The stroke is just another obstacle I have to overcome.

You can’t let anything define you — you have to define yourself.

Man sentenced to 48 years for beating death of child STAFF REPORT

Lakewood resident Ever LopezCalidonio, 27, was sentenced May 22 to 48 years in prison for the beating death of the 4-year-old son of his girlfriend According to a news release provided by Pam Russell, communications director for the 1st Judicial District, the death happened Oct. 2, 2014. Lakewood police were called to 310 S. Ames St. where they found the

child, Jason Ramirez, unresponsive.

Attempts to resuscitate the child were unsuccessful.

Lopez-Calidonio lived at the address with the child and his mother, investigators said. That morning, shortly after the child’s mother left for work, neighbors observed Lopez-Calidonio in the parking lot, slapping and punching at the child’s torso. Neighbors tried to provide aid until first responders arrived.

The autopsy revealed that Ramirez

suffered severe blunt force injuries to his body and head, and other abrasions and contusions, the news release said. The autopsy also revealed healing breaks to his clavicle and rib.

At the time of his death, the toddler had a cast on his broken leg.

Prosecutors said they believe that the broken leg and other injuries to the boy, which had been photographed on a family member’s cellphone in September 2014, were also

caused by Lopez-Calidonio, the news release said.

During the case, Lopez-Calidonio told several different versions of what happened to the child, but admitted that he had beaten him repeatedly that morning after Ramirez had a toileting accident.

Lopez-Calidonio said that he was frustrated, stressed and not getting enough sleep.

He pleaded guilty to child abuse resulting in death.

A home energy audit, also known as a

Last October, the Golden Solar Tour featured a new home development under construction in northwest Arvada called the Geos Community. This community will include 300 homes using geothermal heating combined with solar power to create homes which require no externally generated electric power or natural gas, even powering one

This article is by necessity a somewhat simplistic description of geothermal heating and cooling, so I urge those in a position to consider such an installation to 1) Google the subject for more detail and 2) consult a company in the business of installing geothermal systems to see if such a system would make sense for you.

An unprecedented three Lakewood students receive Boettcher Scholarships Students excel both in and out of classroom

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A Boettcher Scholarship is one of the most prestigious awards a graduating Colorado student can receive.

This year, three of the 42 Colorado seniors who received them came from Lakewood High School — Jon Abrahamson, Troy Jackson and Dakota Kisling.

“It’s really unprecedented to have three winners from the same school,” said Lisa Ritchey, Lakewood’s principal. “All three students are outstanding and do the kinds of things we celebrate at our school.”

Recipients of the four-year scholarship receive funding for almost all expenses at the Colorado school of their choice, including full tuition, fees, a book allowance and an annual stipend for living expenses.

Scholars are selected based on academics, service,

“I’ve taught all three students during their time at the school,” said Jennifer Webb, the school’s AP and IB English Language department manager. “Not only are they incredible students, but they’re all passionate about learning and giving back to the community.”

More than 1,400 students applied for this year’s awards, according to information provided by the Boettcher organization.

What sets the winners apart goes beyond academics, into community and worldwide service.

School staff helped students prepare for the scholarship process, Ritchey said. She added the school is incredibly proud of the three students.

“This year’s senior class is very special,” Webb said.

“We have great kids who will positively impact wherever they go for school.”

JON ABRAHAMSON

TROY JACKSON

DAKOTA KISLING

Plans: I will be attending the University of ColoradoBoulder as a computer science major.

Plans: I plan to attend the Daniel’s School of Business at the University of Denver.

Plans: I will be attending the University of Colorado at Boulder in the fall.

Applying for the Boettcher Scholarship: It all started when my counselor told me about a big scholarship that I had never heard of. My first thought was that there was no way I could be a top-42 student in the state because everything I saw in being excellent was portrayed through GPA and test scores. But after this whole process I came to realize the importance of what I do in my community. There is so much more than grades in this world and the Boettcher Foundation has given me the confidence to realize this.

My whole life, the work that I did with people with disabilities was done because I felt as if I was changing the world. That has and always will be my goal.

However, throughout this college search I began to conclude that these endeavors meant little.

Boettcher changed this. They realized the impact I, along with all my fellow recipients, had on this world.

It all began with the feeling of just tossing a name into a hat.

What I got out of the Boettcher process, however, was a new sense of confidence that my ambitions are truly changing the world.

My future: I am torn between going into the biomedical field to help better the lives of those less able through research development and data management. I also find great interest in the world of data analytics.

I want to be able to aid companies on business decisions and/or help them best maximize the company’s benefits for the consumer. I believe technology is on a new rise and it is very important to jump in now.

Additionally, I have ambitions to start a physical education program where the student body is combined with students with disabilities in a unified physical education class at the local high schools. A similar program at Lakewood High School is what inspired me to become involved in working with people with disabilities, and I want to share this passion with the Boulder community.

Applying for the Boettcher Scholarship: At the start of my senior year, I was actually planning to apply early decision to an out-of-state college. My guidance counselor, Jill Mark, called me into her office and told me about the Boettcher Scholarship. It sounded like a fantastic opportunity so I did some research and decided to apply.

The application process had three rounds. For the first round, we needed to write four essays and fill out an informative sheet with all of the extra-curricular activities, service work and leadership positions that we participated in throughout high school. I wrote my essays on my involvement in a business club/competition called DECA, a tennis foundation I started called Lakewood Tennis Outreach, my volunteer work for the Genesee Fire House and fishing with my dad.

From the first round 300 semi-finalists were selected, and we needed to send in three letters of recommendation to the Boettcher Foundation.

Based on the letters of recommendation, 100 finalists were selected to complete an interview in Denver with the Boettcher Foundation.

The staff at the Boettcher Foundation did an excellent job at making the finalists feel comfortable and welcome when we arrived for our interviews, but it was still one of the most nerve-racking experiences of my entire life.

I was beyond excited to find out that I was awarded the scholarship, and even more excited to find out that my classmates and good friends JC and Dakota were awarded the scholarship as well.

Applying for the Boettcher Scholarship: Applying for the scholarship was intensive and time-consuming, especially since I had a lot of big projects for the International Baccalaureate Program at my school in addition to finishing my college applications.

My counselor, Jill Mark, recommended me to apply for the scholarship and I am super grateful for her confidence in me and my abilities. The first round entailed a number of long essays and short answer questions that touched on various topics, like leadership, academics, extracurricular activities and community service.

After the first round was the teacher recommendation section of the application. During this process, three recommendations were required ... The third and final stage was the interview.

This was by far the most intimidating ...

Overall, the experience was very valuable and I enjoyed the process. I am so thankful to be a Boettcher scholar, along with my classmates, JC Abrahamson and Troy Jackson. I cannot wait for what is in store for me in the future and all of the opportunities this foundation offers their scholars.

My future: I plan to study business at the University of Denver, and perhaps become an investment banker. I am very interested in business, and I think it will make for an enjoyable career.

I also want to continue to follow my passions and give back to the community. The program that I started, Lakewood Tennis Outreach, aims to create a bond between the high school tennis team and the kids of Eiber Elementry who might not ordinarily get a chance to play.

Tennis is my passion, and this seems like the perfect way to give back the community. I handed off the program to an incoming junior on the Lakewood High School tennis team, and he is planning to move the program to a second school.

I want to expand the program, getting more high schools involved in order to introduce the sport to more kids. I have big aspirations for my future in business, but my main goal is to continue to grow this program and others like it.

You’re Invited to a

My future: I plan to major in integrative physiology and possibly double-major in Spanish. I also intend to earn a minor in leadership, with my selection into the President’s Leadership Class.

Academically, I plan on attending medical school to become a doctor, though I am not sure of my specialization at this point.

I love traveling and I plan to study abroad sometime during my undergraduate work. With this said, I would love to run a nonprofit organization someday in Africa, and provide free medical advice and treatment to people for diseases like malaria.

I would also like to help people with special needs integrate into their societies. These goals came about as a result of my travels to Uganda, Africa, with the Far Away Friends organization in the summer of 2016. The impacts of this trip were immeasurable. I truly hope to embark on a career that is international in scope. I cannot wait for the future and I am so grateful for the opportunities the Boettcher Foundation has provided me to pursue my goals.

Alameda grads reach their milestone

lameda High School may have had its graduation in the relatively close space of Denver’s Ellie Caulkins Opera House on May 23, but that didn’t stop families and friends from filling the space with cheers and hollers.

“Congratulations on reaching this milestone. I’m so proud of all of you,” said Jaylen Spires, senior class president.

“We’ve gotten through the last four years as a family, but this is the only the beginning.”

During her valedictorian speech, Lisa Nhu Ngoc Truong encouraged her classmates to enjoy and appreciate the moment — one they’d been working toward for so long.

Faculty speaker Andrew Cogswell gave his students two simple pieces of advice — show up and work hard.

“Showing up is more than just being there. It’s being present and prepared,” he said. “These are not just habits, but a state of mind. If you do both of these, good things will happen.”

CHFA grants help Lakewood with affordable housing Archway Housing and Metro West Housing receive tax credits Private organizations and federal grant funding is helping Lakewood build something the entire metro area is in great need of — affordable housing.

The problem for a place like Lakewood is that there is not very much more land to develop, but more and more people are looking to move into the city. The demand leads developers to build new apartment and housing developments at the market rate, but that leaves out housing options for low income families. With such high demand, and a lack of low-end options, home prices and area rents are reaching all-time highs.

“The ‘cost burden’ of housing has economic consequences, which ripple through the local economy,” wrote Nanette Neelan, Lakewood’s deputy city manager, in an email interview.

“When housing is affordable it means households have money to spend in their local businesses and improve their quality of life. This spending, in turn, supports more jobs.”

This is just one of the reasons that

A rendering of the finished Indy Street Flats project in the Eiber Neighborhood. The Metro West Housing project recently received federal and state funding from the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority to get off the ground.

COURTESY OF METRO WEST HOUSING SOLUTIONS

organizations like Metro West Housing Solutions and Archway Investment Corp are investing in the city by looking to build affordable housing projects. And thanks to state and federal grants allocated by the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority, both organizations will able to get new projects off the ground.

“We had about 20 developers submit applications this round, and were able to provide grants to 12,” said Jerilynn Martinez, director of marketing and community relations at the housing authority. “We’re looking for projects that are serving unique community needs and demographics.”

Archway’s project is called Flats at Two Creeks, and Metro West’s is Indy Street Flats.

“Because of the complexity, there are fewer housing developers that have the expertise or desire to take

on the daunting task of affordable housing development,” Neelan wrote.

“We are fortunate to have a variety of housing providers that develop both for-sale and affordable rental products. If it weren’t for these organizations, there would be few affordable housing options for Lakewood’s lowest-income earning residents.”

Flats at Two Creeks The Flats at Two Creeks’ aim is to serve families and formerly homeless veterans along West Colfax, and will do so be replacing some empty building along the boulevard.

“This housing development is a way to help increase the amount of permanent support housing for formerly homeless veterans, persons with disabilities, along with some other moderate income households,” said Joyce Alms-Ransford, executive director of Archway. “These kinds of living options are not part of the general marketplace, because a typical developer builds higher end units.”

The 78-unit project will feature 70 one-bedroom apartments and eight two-bedrooms, ranging from 30 to 60 percent of area median income. Archway was awarded a $858,014 federal credit and $915,934 state credit.

Included in the development will be on-site group sessions, computer lab and exercise area, Alms-Ransford added. The Flats is still in the design phase, and should be ready for occupants in late 2018, early 2019.

“We just can’t build this kind of housing without tax credits like these,” she said. “You need to be able to keep them affordable for special users, like those we’re looking to welcome here.”

Lakewood studying housing Lakewood is embarking on a housing study of the entire city, to give city council, staff and developers a sense of what the community’s housing needs look like.

“The study is looking at the degree of need for ‘adequate’ housing, not just what is commonly called ‘affordable’ housing,” Neelan wrote. “Needs are defined several ways, but a more common definition is the extent to which the supply of housing across all income categories does not meet the distribution of demand across the various incomes.”

The study is ongoing, and city council have already received several updates during study sessions this year.

Neelan wrote that Lakewood faces a significant need for affordable senior SEE HOUSING, P19

Indy Street Flats Indy Street Flats is an opportunity to both save and upgrade several historic buildings in the Eiber Neighborhood. The project will renovate the 67-year-old Lakewood Mason Lodge and the Belmont Manor property, and include construction of a new building.

“This is one of Lakewood’s older neighborhoods, and it’s important to us that we preserve some of the history,” said Brendalee Connors, director of development with Metro West.

“IF you want a healthy community, you need a good mix of people.”

Between the three buildings, Indy Street will create 115 units — 14 Studios, 41 one-bedrooms, 46 twobedrooms and 14 three-bedrooms. The cost will range from 30 to 60 percent of area median income, and Metro West was awarded a $1,076,161 federal credit and $1,000,000 state credit.

One of the best parts of the development, Connors added, is the nearness to public transportation on Colfax and the Garrison W Line station.

“Affordable housing projects are always going to be in high demand, especially with the high rent we’re seeing all over,” she said. “We’re being very efficient and economic about how we approach this project.”

Jeffco school board members announce re-election campaigns Rupert, Harmon and Mitchell will seek re-election this November

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A majority of the Jefferson County Board of Education will seek to maintain three seats this November.

Board president Ron Mitchell, Susan Harmon and Brad Rupert have filed to run for re-election. The three were elected in 2015 following the recall of former board majority members Ken Witt, Julie Williams and John Newkirk.

Harmon, Mitchell and Rupert have been serving the remaining two years of the recalled members’ terms.

Rupert serves District 1, which

covers Arvada, Pomona and Standley Lake areas; Harmon serves District 2, which covers Conifer, Evergreen, Golden and Green Mountain areas; and Mitchell serves District 5, which covers Chatfield, Columbine and Dakota Ridge areas.

“We are asking voters for support to continue the work we began two years ago to create a positive, collaborative work environment in Jeffco that results in student success and improved achievement,” Mitchell, a former high school principal, said.

“We look forward to working with our new superintendent Dr. Jason Glass to make the Jeffco School District one of the best in the nation.”

Harmon, an attorney, said Jeffco schools have turned the tide and board members want to ensure continued success.

“We have more work to do to ensure all graduates are career and

COURTESY PHOTO college ready,” Harmon said. “We must attract and retain top teachers and principals. We’re excited to continue to work with our community

on these issues and others.”

In 2015, an entirely new five-member board was elected when minority members Lesley Dahlkemper and Jill Fellman announced that they would not seek re-election.

Ali Lasell and Amanda Stevens won those seats. Lasell serves District 3, which covers Arvada West, Ralston Valley and Wheat Ridge areas. Stevens serves District 4, which covers Alameda, Bear Creek, Jefferson and Lakewood areas. Lasell and Stevens are serving four-year terms that expire in 2019.

The incumbents filed their intent to seek re-election and opened their campaign committees with the Colorado Secretary of State on May 24.

According to the Secretary of State, as of May 25, no other candidates had filed to run for these seats. Candidates must file before August for inclusion on the 2017 November ballot.

Our mistakes may weigh heavy on our children’s heads

recently finished reading “Gods and Generals,” by Jeff Shaara. It is the story of several of the battles in the time period leading up to the Battle of Gettysburg, which was the pivotal battle of the American Civil War. It is a glorious book, as was its predecessor, “The Killer Angels,” written by Shaara’s father, Michael. I don’t feel it quite reaches the artistry of prose of “Angels,” but “Gods” is an excellent and necessary companion to the former. Mustreads for anybody even slightly interested in the Civil War or in American history.

And, again, every time I read a Civil War history, I am struck by the degree to which it feels like the war was not so much won by the Union,

as it was not lost. In other words, if the Civil War had been a football game, it would have been a 0-0 tie midway through the 4th quarter, with Jay Cutler and Brock Osweiler quarterbacking the two teams: the winner was going to be the one who did not screw up last.

On several occasions, the Union was in a position to strike a decisive blow, and failed to.

In some cases, because the general in charge refused to attack until he had more men (even though he had vastly greater numbers already), or until the plan was in perfect order (even if it meant waiting months to attack and losing tactical surprise), or until their intelligence was completely accurate (even if it meant al-

lowing an army in a rout get away). I think it’s just dumb lucky for all of us that Robert E. Lee and Jeb Stuart returned the favor and allowed themselves to be sucked into an unfavorable battlefield at Gettysburg. But had the Union acted more decisively sooner, there is the real possibility that the war would have ended much sooner with many, many fewer deaths.

What is fascinating about the way the Shaaras tell their stories is that they do so from a revolving first-person perspective, so we hear the (imagined) thoughts and conversations of the central players. As a result, even though it SEE ALCORN, P13

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR New era for Jeffco schools The expected failure of the experiment to have a school district run by a militant labor union is now obvious. Voters in this November’s election can toss out the three board members now in office through the unfair recall, and give the new superintendent a chance to function in a professional climate.

He will be able to restore the former superintendent’s efforts to balance student needs with taxpayer confidence, neither of which have received even incidental consideration under union direction.

The magic of being authentic BUSINESS AIKIDO

Glenn Bott

I

f you want to increase your personal power and influence, and feel better, start being authentic. Be 100 percent you 100 percent of the time.

Authentic people radiate good juju. They’re being themselves in every moment and this vibe is contagious. People like being around them because they feel better — more relaxed and safe.

They know authentic people don’t have hidden agendas and are always straightforward and honest.

Being authentic is available to

all, but few choose it or have the courage to behave and live this way. Authentic people love and accept themselves for who they are — they’re comfortable in their own skin. They know they aren’t perfect (who is?), and they don’t really care. While they accept themselves in the moment, they continually strive to be a better version (Me 2.0) as they move forward. New experiences give them new vantage points from which to grow and expand SEE BOTT P13

Student Performance Not a Priority in Jeffco The Jeffco school board recently hired a new superintendent. The bad news, and there is a lot, is he does not have any performance based bonuses in his contract.

There are zero bonuses tied to gains in student achievement.

Why ?

Is it because in Eagle County, where he came from, student performance was quite mixed. In 2014 , after his first year in Eagle graduation rates were 88-89 percent, but in 2016 they decreased to 79-80 percent.

Is it too much to handle coming from a district with 7,000 students to a district with 85,000 students?

Some more bad news: Tax payers already pay 20.15 percent of his salary into his PERA retirement account, and we pay (his) 8 percent contribution to his retirement (why do we fund 28

percent without any performance requirements?!) and an additional 7 percent for retirement will be deposited into a separate annuity.

Wow! His annual raise is tied to the consumer price index (teachers do not receive that) so he makes more money next year regardless of performance.

We hoped this board would set a rational salary for our new Superintendent. They announced $300,000 was the target compensation for the search but Mr. Glass looks to be pulling in closer to $400,000 a year.

For what?

Guess Jeffco really didn’t need that billion dollar tax increase after all.

Anne Warren, Littleton Million Dollar Superintendent Wow, I am shocked that the new Jeffco Superintendent will have a 3-year compensation package that is worth over a million dollars! Isn’t Jeffco short of money? Wasn’t the comment “we need more money” mentioned at practically every school board meeting?

Let’s not forget, the school board asked for a billion dollars this past November. In his previous position Mr. Glass had a base salary of $195,000, his new base is $265,000.

That’s a 35 percent increase and a 20 percent increase over his predecessor. As a reminder, Mr. McMinimee had a base salary of $220,000 and Cindy Stevenson had a base salary

of $205,000.

As if Mr. Glass’s salary wasn’t outrageous enough evidently he can’t afford a car because he is also getting $750 a month car allowance ($9,000 a year). He also gets 25 days extra vacation, annual raise equal to consumer price index (regardless if our hard working teachers receive a raise.) and nearly $94,000 in retirement benefits plus a $795,000 life insurance policy. Does he think this job will kill him? And we are going to pay his living and moving expenses for six months. Who does that?

To top it off, there is no bonus for student achievement, none. Both of his predecessors had bonuses tied to gains in student achievement. That is right, for over a decade Jeffco Superintendents have had performance bonuses, but not Mr. Glass. Makes me wonder exactly what Mr. Glass sees as a priority if not student achievement. His contract screams of greed with zero accountability. But let’s not forget, it is all for the students. Thank you Jeffco School Board!

who they are.

When you walk your talk, speak your truth and have to courage to boldly be yourself, the world notices and respects you. The only magic in this is that so many don’t behave this way — by default you are noticed and are remembered.

We all know those who say anything to get your attention or close a sale. After a few times of being burned we have our shields up and begin to doubt our fellow man. Flim-flam artists are everywhere. They may do very well initially, but they don’t have repeat business or true friends because they’re constantly scamming and lying to others.

Successful solopreneurs I work with have cultivated this empowering trait of being authentic. Their personal and professional integrity oozes from their pores — they walk their talk. They move forward with confidence knowing they have the necessary skills and beliefs to see them through any potential hardships. They will find a way.

Inauthentic people say whatever is convenient in the moment yet never follow through on their spoken words.

By doing this, they continually shoot themselves in the foot and undermine their personal power and professional stature. They blame others for their predicament and often play the role of a victim. They don’t realize we’re all being watched and judged every moment of every day. Anything that diminishes your integrity also diminishes your power and influence.

no bonuses tied to any type of improvement. He walks away with over a million dollar contract with zero accountability.

How is that a win for Jeffco students and teachers?

This is a waste of our hard-earned tax dollars. As a full-time worker, I have goals and objectives to meet and if not, I could lose my job. I am held to high levels of accountability but I also achieve financial rewards for achieving those assigned goals. What is Mr. Glass held accountable to – nothing! A million-dollar contract with zero accountability. It’s a win for him, a loss for tax payers and more importantly, the students he is supposed to serve. If you want to give him a CEO salary, then hold him accountable like a CEO. Absolutely shameful that our current school board would waste a million dollars and expect no results.

Karen Buelter, Golden Thanks for accepting view I’d like to thank the Arvada Press for running a two page article about the local Muslim community on May 25th.

In a time that there is so much fear mongering going on in this country we need the press to help expose people to things outside of their day to day life. Muslims are just like everyone else and we need to accept them in our communities and learn from their unique life experiences.

The reason America is Great is because we are a melting pot of every culture around the world.

Taylor Rose, Arvada

Whenever you lie or miss a commitment you create tension in yourself.

This is because every time you speak you’re also listening. You’re training yourself and others that you can’t be trusted. This incongruence creates tension within your body. Your heart hears you commit to something, yet your mind has no intention of doing it.

This discord creates an ongoing tension that slowly increases over time unless consciously put to rest. This tension ultimately results in physical ailments.

Western medicine is beginning to prove that our thoughts and words have power. Dr. Masaru Emoto’s famous water molecule experiments on the power of words and intentions is one of the easiest to demonstrate and verify.

Dr. Joe Dispenza’s book, “You are the Placebo,” further proves the power of our minds and thoughts. We all know very intelligent and capable people who live a life of turmoil because of the diminishing thoughts they repeat to themselves many thousands of times per day.

Use the power of authenticity to your advantage. Begin to monitor your thoughts and tell a new story. The single best way to move forward powerfully is to begin being impeccable. Walk your talk and meet your commitments.

Do this with a song in your heart and watch your health and world change for the better.

is a fiction based in fact and meticulously constructed from historical records, the readers get a glimpse into the thinking of the characters. And, the way the Southern generals are portrayed is quite sympathetic: these are smart, devoutly religious men who just want to defend their homes (of course, in the process, preserving slavery).

And then I noticed that, from the telling of Lee and Jackson, they saw the whole affair as a matter of God’s will, and they did their part, and then accepted His judgment, to the degree they could discern it. As such, I wonder if it ever occurred to them that the unnecessary prolonging of the war, with the thousands of deaths that followed, might have been God’s punishment for the “original sin” of slavery.

And then I got to thinking, “what sins are we committing today, as a nation, that our grandchildren will end up

paying a terrible price for?”

I know there are those reading this who will immediately jump to income and justice disparities as the great stain that will be atoned for in 50 years; I know there are also those who think the great sin is the abandonment of our Judeo-Christian heritage and mores. Personally, I think the widespread and unchecked corruption — the perversion of the rule of law — of the political process is something that will have to be reckoned with someday.

But the terrible truth is that, whatever mistakes we are making today will be paid for, not by us, and certainly not by the D.C.-dwellers codifying those mistakes, but by our children and by our children’s children.

I just pray that the next “Sins of the Father” do not leave us with hordes of new people to honor like those who fell at Gettysburg … or like we just honored on Monday.

Two private funds will help veterans recover

BY DAN ELLIOTT ASSOCIATED PRESS

Two civilian initiatives are coming to Colorado to help veterans and their families deal with traumatic brain injuries, post-traumatic stress and other problems, the University of Colorado said.

The recently announced five-year, $38 million gift from the Marcus Foundation will create the Marcus Institute for Brain Health at the university’s Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, helping veterans manage the lingering effects of service-relat-

ed concussions.

The foundation, based in Atlanta, was established by Bernard Marcus, co-founder of Home Depot.

The university also announced it will work with the Cohen Veterans Network to establish a mental health clinic for Denver-area veterans and their families. The Cohen Network committed $9.8 million over three years for the clinic.

The network was started by hedge fund manager Steven A. Cohen.

Both programs are separate from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, which is building a $1.7 billion

medical center less than a mile from the Anschutz Medical Campus in the Denver suburb of Aurora.

A PTSD treatment center was part of the original plan for the VA hospital but it was cut from the first phase because the overall project ran far over budget.

Officials of the new civilian programs said they will complement VA services and fill some gaps. Both will offer care to veterans who are ineligible for VA services because they received other-than-honorable discharges.

The Marcus Institute will treat up to 400 veterans a year using traditional and alternative medicine, said Dr. James Kelly, executive director of the institute.

“The idea would be to blend very advanced, very high-tech medical care with complementary and alternative medical methods such as acupuncture and breathing techniques and relaxation and therapeutic massage, a whole variety of things that we’ve found useful,” he said.

Kelly, a neurologist, led the Defense Department’s National Intrepid Center of Excellence at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for seven years. The center treats active-duty servicemen and women with traumatic brain injuries and psychological health conditions.

Veterans will not be charged any-

thing for participating, even if they do not have insurance, Kelly said.

The institute will have about 30 doctors, psychologists and physical therapists when it reaches full strength next year. It will use existing facilities at the Anschutz campus.

The Marcus Foundation hopes the institute will be a model for similar programs elsewhere.

The Cohen Military Family Clinic will be one of 25 around the nation. It will provide free or low-cost mental health care to veterans and their families and will be located about 2 1/2 miles from the Anschutz campus.

It will offer treatment for posttraumatic stress, depression, anxiety, marital problems, children’s behavioral health and related issues, said Anthony Hassan, president and CEO of the Cohen Veterans Network. It will focus on post-9/11 veterans but others will be considered if services are available.

Hassan said treating all veterans regardless of their discharge status is part of the Cohen Network’s mission.

“Many men and women are being discharged for behavior problems or drug abuse problems,” Hassan said.

“Any veteran who served one day on active duty, regardless of discharge, is worthy of care in our clinics.”

Teenagers behind the wheel Teaching a teen to drive is both exciting and nerve-wracking

FIVE STEPS FOR TEENS TO OBTAIN A DRIVER’S LICENSE 1. Take a driver’s education class.

A 30-hour class, which is usually offered online or in a classroom setting, will teach a teen everything he or she needs to know to pass the test required to obtain a learner’s permit.

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

ayelyn Lockard is looking forward to being able to do some simple tasks on her own in the near future — helping her mother with the day-to-day errands, making a quick trip to the grocery store to pick up a few items and leaving her high school campus during her lunch break.

“I just enjoy driving around,” she said. “I’m excited to be able to start doing stuff on my own time.”

The first street that Lockard, 16, drove on was Delaware Street in Englewood, and for the past 10 months, she has been practicing her driving skills. Now, she only lacks documenting two nighttime driving hours before she is eligible to obtain her driver’s license.

“She was a good student,” her mother Annie Bennett said. But that still didn’t make the experience any easier, she added. “It was not always a smooth process.”

For lots of American teenagers, getting a driver’s license provides a sense of freedom. They can drive themselves to and from school, and they no longer have to depend on parents for rides to hang out with friends or meet up with study groups.

But for parents, although excited about the milestone in their child’s life, it can be a nerve-wracking experience of relinquishing control of being their child’s safest mode of transportation.

“I think I was the problem at first,” Bennett said. “I was really nervous — I struggled a lot. But now, for the most part, my nerves seem to be a little more normal.”

It is normal for parents to feel anxious about their teen learning to drive, said Ben Baron, owner and founder of DriveSafe Driving Schools, which teaches about 5,000 teens to drive annually through its 10 locations in the Denver-metro area.

“When we lose the ability to solely protect our kids, it’s normal for parents to feel anx-

Lockard only has two nighttime driving hours left to document before she is eligible to obtain her driver’s license. COURTESY PHOTO ious,” Baron said. But “people get through it. Learning to drive is a milestone in their lives. It can and should be a great thing.”

Baron went through the experience with his two children, who are now in their 20s. He encourages all families with a teen who will soon start the learning-to-drive process to have an open and honest conversation about each other’s nerves.

“Be genuine with your teen,” he said. “Tell them, we’re super-excited, but also nervous because we’re losing our control of your protection.”

Bennett agrees that having conversations throughout the learning-to-drive process is important and beneficial. It strengthened their relationship, she said.

“Rayelyn and I have grown because of this,” Bennett said.

“We’ve gotten closer, with our communication and trust.”

Another thing that helped Bennett was Lockard’s weeklong driver’s ed course, which she took through Peak Drivers Ed last July.

“It helped a ton because I didn’t have to be the first person to be in the car with her,” Bennett said. “I thought, OK, at least she knows how to turn the car on and where the gas and brakes are.”

Some parents are terrified to teach their teen to drive, said Jake Dinwiddie, the lead instructor of DriveSafe’s

Dinwiddie would like to remind Mistakes happen when learning to everyone who drives in Colorado drive, just like they do with any new to be courteous on the roads — skill.” especially to cars marked as a Littleton/Lakewood location and the company-wide manager of academic quality. So after completing each lesson, he said, parents are generally excited to hear about how the lesson went and willing to take advice on what to work on.

“We have the same goal,” he said, “and that is for their son or daughter to become a safe driver. It’s really neat to see the a-ha moments from both the parents and the students.”

Much of teaching a teen to drive is patience and providing a supportive environment, Baron said. But two tips he would give parents are to lead by example by modeling good driving behavior and focus on safe decision-making in all scenarios of driving, for both local roads and highways.

“When you think about learning to drive, you often first think about teaching the

physical, behind-the-wheel aspect,” Baron said. “But more importantly, it’s also learning the mental aspect of driving — safe decision-making.”

Once Lockard had completed her driver’s ed course, she and her mother had their first driving lesson together in an RTD parking lot on a Sunday evening.

“I didn’t know what to expect,” Bennett said. “So I wanted to go somewhere where there was no traffic.”

But her daughter was already confident enough in her own skills — she knew what all the street signs meant, understood how to turn and how the streetlights work. And with Lockard’s grandfather putting in about 25 percent of the driving supervision work, Bennett and her daughter eventually made their way to driving on well-known, predictable side streets with a

45 mph speed limit.

“The highways are still intimidating because most accidents happen on the highway,” Lockard said. “But otherwise, it’s fun to drive.”

She drives almost every day for about an hour.

And Bennett is proud of what her daughter has accomplished.

“I’m confident she can do it — she knows what she’s doing,” Bennett said. “But you never get used to them growing up. And then, all of a sudden, they’re driving.”

Wheat Ridge High School embraces district’s 2020 vision Jeffco schools hope to teach students more about life than textbooks

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The goal for all Jefferson County Schools graduates is for them to not only master the Colorado academic standards, but also excel in civic and global engagement; communication; critical thinking and creativity; and self direction and personal responsibility.

Those are the guidelines laid out in the districts 2020 Vision plan, which was launched in 2015.

Though the school district reports that several of its schools are making strides towards the goals of the vision plan, one example of a place that embraced the mission is Wheat Ridge High School.

“In my mind, the 2020 vision is taking care of all kids and their differing needs and including the community in helping us to do that,” said Wheat Ridge High School Principal Griff Wirth.

Most recently the school created a new partnership with the Colorado Construction Institute to solve shortages in skilled trades.

“It’s a good opportunity for me to learn about instruction,” said Donal McGrail, 18, who wants to incorporate his love of theater and construction skills to be a set designer.

McGrail is one of four students learning construction skills at the Colorado Construction Institute.

“I think what we have been trying to figure out in Jeffco 2020 it opportunities for all kids,” Wirth said. “We’re doing very good for opportunities for advanced learners, but what about our at-risk kids? So, we decided to attack that challenge.”

Wheat Ridge put together a career exploration program that focuses on three industries that are dying for workers: hospitality, construction and health care.

The school identified 28 students for the program who were considered “at-risk” of not succeeding in school

Donal McGrail, 18, says that construction class is a good way for him to learn about and be a part of the workforce.

Those students have installed a statue at Lutheran Hospital and worked this year on creating a fog wall that utilizes ionized water to create pictures.

Before both of those programs, the Gifted and Talented Center was launched at the school, nine years ago.

Wirth says the center filled a void for the GT students who were getting bored in class and dropping out.

“GT kids, I think there’s a misperception about who they are,” Wirth said. “People look a gifted kids as an easy road, but there’s a whole lot of different giftedness. They view the world differently.”

The GT program at Wheat Ridge, which pulls high school students from the whole district, allows gifted students to pursue passions and interests in an advanced academic setting.

“It’s an opportunity for them to be in that group with like peers,” Wirth said, adding that a lot of students in the program are twice gifted — meaning that they fall on the gifted scale academically but also struggle with things like anxiety, depression or autism.

Wirth is retiring this year, but he said he is excited that newly named Superintendent Jason Glass will be coming on board in Jeffco.

“I hope that he embraces the 2020 Vision,” Wirth said. “If he embraces that, then schools like Wheat Ridge will become models for what a school could look like.”

because of a lack in credits, free and reduced lunch status, special education needs, or did not attend school regularly.

Before enrolling in the construction class, Jesus Hernandez, 18, wasn’t showing up for school. But his instructor at the Construction Institute, Mark Babcock, says now he arrives 30 minutes early for class. Jesus now has aspirations of being a framer and eventually a developer.

“We designed the program to try to see if we can re-engage them in school and give them work skills,” Wirth said.

Students in the program attend two months of academic boot camp blended with career exploration. In boot camp, they work on soft skills and employability. After that, they work with community partners for skill training.

Training is three to eight weeks long followed by a paid internship.

“I think the problem we’ve had is the way we’ve looked at education for a long time says all kids need to go to college,” Wirth said. “I think a lot of times kids feel like if they don’t go

to college they’re a failure. But the research tells us that 30 percent of our jobs require a four year degree right now. We’ve been trying to send 100 percent to college, when economy doesn’t support that.”

Wirth hopes that the skill trade programs offered by Wheat Ridge help change that.

But even before the 2020 Vision was implemented Wheat Ridge and other district schools were already embracing programs like STEM and STEAM. The high school started a STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) program which would allow students to take on big projects, research them, design, tweak and build them while partnering with community engineers.

Recently that STEM Team claimed a first-place victory at the annual Shell Eco-Marathon in which they showed off their prototype hydrogen fuel cell car.

The win marks the second national title won by the Farmers.

The cars are displayed inside the school.

“They continue to use critical thinking and creativity and expand the frame of what might work,” said Matt Flores, Chief Academic Officer for Jeffco Schools, of the STEM students.

“That to me is a great example of Jeffco 2020.”

From the STEM program, grew STEAM with a “A” added for art.

Twenty-one students earned their diplomas May 27 from Long View High School — a small alternative school serving Jefferson County students. The ceremony, scheduled to be outside at the school, was held at Warren Tech due to rain.

Graduates were individually celebrated by their teachers with unique introductions and each student sharing their thoughts on graduation day.

Keynote Speaker Colorado Senator Andy Kerr told the graduates that listening is the heart of learning and to never stop doing that.

“You have arrived where many never do and you took the harder road,” Kerr said in his address to the students, who enrolled at Long View because their needs were not being met by their home school for variety of reasons: hyper activity, drugs, playing video games, tremendous anxiety or being withdrawn for example.

“You are an accomplished family,” Kerr said. “Inspire each other to do more.”

Long View, in its 23rd year of operation, graduated its 300th student this year. Avalon Yates was celebrated as the 300th graduate. He was the first student to receive his diploma at this years commencement ceremony.

The alternative school is housed in a 50-year-old temporary structure on the hill of Jefferson County Public Schools’ Life Long Learning Center campus in Lakewood. It was the subject of some debate earlier this year when Jeffco Public Schools staff proposed moving the school into the larger campus at McClain High School, which is also located on the

Life Long Learning Campus.

But parents, students, alumni and staff said doing so would be the demise of the program.

After negotiations with the district, Long View will remain on the hill for the 2017-18 school year. Then the fate is up in the air again, said head teacher Jennifer Perry-Daly.

“We hope to remain in our current location forever,” Perry-Daly said.

“We work really well up there.”

‘The Luckiest People’ in first run at Curious Theatre Family issues are explored in play commissioned by local operation

There are two living rooms, expertly designed by Charles Packard to set the scene at Denver’s Curious Theatre: on the lower level, a dingy looking living room in a retirement home apartment, almost done in sepia, with a sentimental landscape painting on the wall. The other, a bright, contemporary living room with a large abstract painting and red furniture, is backed by a wall of windows that bring the changing sky into the picture — an important element. They set a scene for a conflicted Jewish family, after a funeral for the recently deceased mother, Dorothy.

Meet sad, cranky father Oscar (Randy Moore, who observed that he’d played old men since he was a teen); thin-skinned doctor/son Richard (Eril Sandvold); Richard’s appealing, articulate partner David (John Jurachek); and Richard’s emotional (and funny) sister Laura (Karen Slack), who flew in from Shanghai to help sit Shiva.

“So much of our economy depends on our low- and middle-skilled workforce, which includes jobs ranging from the retail and service sector jobs to our teachers, police and firefighters,” Neelan wrote. “Overall, adequate housing affects the general health of the economy and its residents’ quality of life.”

In an effort to cheer Oscar up, they play “Funny Girl,” with its song about “people who need people are the luckiest people on the world” — thus the title.

There are funny lines and situations and sad ones in this wellcrafted script, although the theme of family issues after a funeral would seem to be a bit overdone — probably because it allows for the accumulation of a cast of differing, quirky characters.

Skillfully directed by Chip Walton, the play looks at love, family relationships, careers, sandwich generation, women’s roles, marriage, children and aging — the stuff our lives are made of — offering a satisfying evening at the theater.

Lakewood is not only home to some vital and transformative arts groups and organizations, but also a city where many artists make their homes.

It’s easy to remain unaware of this fact, but the Heritage, Culture and Arts’ annual INSPIRE Arts Week wants to change that by bringing art lovers into the spaces where creation happens.

“We have something going on this year that I’ve wanted to do for a long time,” said Lorene Joos, arts programming curator for the Heritage, Culture and the Arts division. “People often

don’t think of Lakewood as having all this arts stuff, but we have so many artists here.”

The annual 11-day event highlights the city’s creative energy through free and discounted events presented by more than 20 arts and cultural organizations like Rockley Music, 40 West

“We have people who look forward to INSPIRE all year,” Joos said. “For people who are hesitant about the arts, this is a great time to come out and see what’s going on in the community.”

Community favorites like the Rockin’ Block Party and Lakewood Symphony concert are returning for another year, but it’s some new events that give people an up-close look at Lakewood’s art world.

One first-time event will be a block party from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, June 10, at Belmar’s Block 7 art district.

For years, Joos said she’s been trying to set up some kind of studio tour, and this year, it’s finally a reality.

From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday, June 4, visitors can take the first Artists in Residences Studio Tour, in which area artists will open up their home studios to the public.

“We have artists participating all over the city who will be allowing people to see how they live and work,” explained local artist and tour organizer, Carrie MaKenna. “Lakewood has been promoting the arts for a long time, and I thought it would be really great for people to see how many artists we have.”

The tour is a driving one, where tourists are provided a map of the city with the homes of more than 20 participating artists clearly marked.

“I hope people are surprised by how many artists we have in our community,” MaKenna said. “It’s not often you actually get to go into these people’s homes and see how they work.”

Outdoor farmers market season comes to Wheat Ridge

BY ANDREA W. DORAY SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Four Seasons Farmers & Artisans Market in Wheat Ridge has moved — outdoors, that is.

The market has partnered with Ridge at 38 and Localworks to enlarge its summer outdoor market as a regional Saturday destination on West 38th Avenue, with double the number of participating farmers and other vendors.

The Ridge at 38 Four Seasons Outdoor Market launched on May 13 and occurs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays through Oct. 28. There also is space for expansion of the market along the north side of West 38th Avenue, thanks to neighboring Aspen Dental.

Four Seasons Farmers & Artisans Market was founded by Margaret and Dick Barkey of Colorado Wise Acres Farm in Fort Lupton, as part of the former Urban Homesteading venture on south Sante Fe Drive. When Urban Homesteading closed in May 2015, the Barkeys knew there was still a need for a year-round indoor market, for customers and for farmers and vendors.

Along with other vendors from Urban Homesteading, he and Margaret looked for several months for a place to host an indoor market, says Dick Barkey.

“The Wheat Ridge community was so welcoming, and with the right space and parking, we launched Four Seasons Farmers & Artisans Market,” he said.

“Now, we’ve expanded in this location to include the Ridge at 38 Four Seasons Outdoor Market.”

The markets are located at 7043 W. 38th Ave. in Wheat Ridge with the only year-round indoor farmers market in the Denver area, says Rosalind May, program coordinator. The market highlights unique farm-direct products including local vegetables and fruit, raw cow’s and goat’s milk, cheese, salsa and pasta sauce, jelly and jam, baked goods, free-range chicken eggs and duck eggs, flowers, organic grains, and beef, pork, lamb and bison from grassfed operations.

Several local artists exhibit their works at the markets. Art on display includes western photography, jewelry and paintings.

In addition to about 25 indoor vendors, the outdoor location hosts another 25 or so vendors. Market vendors such as Harlyn Griffith are pleased with the outdoor expansion. Griffith Enterprises, LLC, offers metal sculptures and keepsake boxes, as well as his own pickled asparagus and beans.

“The vendor tents along 38th Avenue attract even more people to the market,” says Griffith. “I enjoy it here.

There’s a real homey atmosphere, especially for families, and I see people come here to stroll around and just relax. Besides,” he notes, “they can save a lot of money.”

Ashley Holland is the marketing and events coordinator for Localworks, a

IF YOU GO The outdoor market is open 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays through October 28. The indoor market is open year-round Tuesday – Friday noon-6 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., and Sunday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at 7043 W. 38th Ave. in Wheat Ridge.

Rosalind May, program coordinator for Four Seasons Farmers & Artisans Market, says they are excited to be a part of the Wheat Ridge activities on West 38th Avenue.

ANDREA DORAY community-based, nonprofit development corporation advancing Wheat Ridge as a vibrant and sustainable community. “Localworks and Ridge at 38th are excited about partnering with Four Seasons Farmers & Artisans Market to produce the outdoor market,” says Holland, “and help attract customers from around the metro area to Wheat Ridge.”

Candace Tomlinson, a resident of Wheat Ridge, says she’s “thrilled” having the farmers markets in her neighborhood.

CO- PRE SE N TE D BY

“I want to do local, but I also want new and different items. And I like talking with the vendors about their goods,” Tomlinson said.

Dick Barkey emphasizes that the focus of the markets is on healthy local Colorado products. Although their foods are not certified organic, producers are held to an organic standard to assure the highest quality, he said.

“Our produce comes from farms and gardens right around the neighborhood,” said Barkey. “In the winter, we offer ‘most closely grown’ produce from different regions for our customers.”

In fact, Barkey has helped form a neighborhood co-op of local gardeners.

“People have these great urban gardens and they have more vegetables than they know what do with,” says Barkey. “But they don’t really want to man a booth at a farmers’ market, so we do it for them. You can’t get food any fresher than this unless you picked it from your own garden.”

Quite the feller: Legend’s baseball coach has ‘had a great run’ D’Evelyn soccer players celebrate with the Jaguars’ student section at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park on May 24.

D’Evelyn girls win first state soccer title Jag earn 1-0 victory over Jeffco rivals

D’Evelyn senior Payton Sampson, right, gets a huge from teammates after the Jaguars’ 1-0 victory over Evergreen to win the Class 4A girls soccer state championship May 24 at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

COMMERCE CITY — D’Evelyn can add its name to the plethora of Jeffco League teams who have won a girls soccer state championships.

The Jaguars defeated rival Jeffco rival Evergreen 1-0 on Wednesday night in the Class 4A title game at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park to claim the first girls soccer state title in the program’s history.

“I just had a complete rush of emotion,” said D’Evelyn sophomore Bella Scaturro, who had a couple of key clears in the final minutes to preserve the 1-goal victory. “I’m so happy. I’m so proud of us. I couldn’t ask for more from this team.”

The lone goal in the championship game came early. D’Evelyn’s leading scorer, sophomore Laryssa Hamblen, put in her 20th goal of the season in the 5th minute. Hamblen put pressure on an Evergreen clearing attempt. The ball rocketed off Hamblen to create a breakaway on Evergreen sophomore goalie Sarah Straut.

“I just kept pushing through and was able to get a touch to get a oneon-one with the keeper. I managed to slip it in,” Hamblen said. “Honestly, I was kind of shocked when it happened. I wasn’t sure where the ball was at first, then I saw it in front of me. I just hit it hard enough.”

Straut was able to get a hand on the shot, but enough to keep it from getting across the goal-line.

“It’s just work,” D’Evelyn coach Paul Moline said of Hamblen’s goal.

“We talked about that today because we knew it was going to be a battle back-and-forth all game. There were going to be those individual battles all over the field.”

Evergreen (13-7) had a flurry of

chances in the final 13 minutes, including a few corners and direct free kicks off the foot of Evergreen senior Sofia Weiner that nearly tied the game up. The University of Virginia-bound Weiner felt that the Cougars had more scoring chances, but couldn’t find a way to score on D’Evelyn sophomore goalie Kiera Hess.

“She (Hess) has been stellar,” Moline said of Hess, who recored her third straight shutout victory in the Jaguars’ third straight 1-0 playoff victory. “All the way through the playoffs she has been unbeatable.

She has owned that box.”

Hess admitted it was a little stressful holding a 1-0 lead for the majority of the game. She gave a lot of credit to her teammates.

“I had a really good team in front of me,” Hess said. “You can’t win a game unless you score.”

D’Evelyn (16-3-1) actually placed fourth in the brutally tough 4A Jeffco League this season. Valor, Wheat Ridge and Evergreen — all 4A state quarterfinalists — finished ahead of the Jaguars in the conference standings.

In the league game between D’Evelyn and Evergreen on April 26, the Cougars pulled out a 3-2 victory.

“To make it through Jeffco was extremely difficult this year,” Moline said. “To make it all the way to here was even harder. I think our league pepped us for a game like this. We

played so many good, tight soccer games this year against quality opponents and quality coaches.”

It hasn’t been rare to have an all-Jeffco soccer final in either 4A or 5A. Wheat Ridge and Valor faced off in three straight 4A title games from 2009 to 2011. In 5A, Columbine and Ralston Valley battled it out at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park just three years ago in 2014.

“Overall as a team this season we were able to unify as a team and we were more cohesive. It worked out for us in the end,” Hamblen said.

“Now that we know that this team can do it, we can do it again.”

Evergreen also had an interesting ride before getting hot for its strong playoff run. It was the first time the Cougars and longtime coach Peter Jeans made it to a girls soccer championship game since Evergreen won the 4A title in 1997.

“It’s incredible. If you asked any of us in the middle of the season if we would be here today, I’m pretty sure all of us would have said you are crazy,” Weiner said. “We really picked it up at the end of the season and our chemistry really came together.”

Scott Fellers has been Legend’s baseball coach since the school opened in 2008. He is retiring from the coaching post and his last game was a 1312 loss to Cherry Creek in OVERTIME the Class 5A state baseball tournament on May 22.

The Titans were 17-7 in Fellers’ farewell season.

“I could not have asked for a better season with me going out and retiring,” Fellers, 46, said. “I’m fortunate to have some good kids and everything kind Jim Benton of worked for us this year.

It’s a good way to go out.

“We beat all the big teams, won the league (Continental), won the district and played high-level baseball.”

Fellers’ teams won or shared three league championships, captured four district titles and was the Class 5A state runner-up in 2012.

He will continue to teach at Legend.

“I will have two kids in high school next year and a fourth-grader as well,” he said.

“It’s just time I focus on my kids. I’ve had a great run, had fun, had great relationships and good teams. It’ll be different because this is all I’ve done.

“I’m just going to take a year off, teach and see what the future brings.”

Shootouts should go Winners of state playoff soccer games should not be determined by penalty kick shootouts.

I know it’s in the rules and shootouts are used to determine winners across the world.

In Colorado high school competition, after two sudden-victory, 15-minute overtime sessions, if a match is still tied, then a penalty kick shootout begins. That’s fine and exciting for regular-season games, but come on, there has to be a better way in the playoffs that involves the entire team to break the tie.

Shootouts generally come down to the players taking the kicks making mistakes — a keeper has no chance unless he or she guesses right.

I don’t have a perfect solution. My only suggestion for an alternative is that a tie game could be suspended and the teams would resume another sudden-victory overtime on the next playable day. There were several baseball games suspended this spring because of weather and resumed the next day.

Ralston Valley girls win first state title Team made up five strokes on final day STAFF REPORT

Ralston Valley’s girls golf team definitely peaked at the right time.

The Mustang foursome was five strokes behind after the first day on May 22. Led by Remley’s 74 on May 23, the team carded a second round 229 (three golfer total with the fourth not counting) to win at 474 to Rock Canyon’s 483.

The team was comprised of Jordan Remley, senior Riley McKibbon, along with sophomores Sydney Eye and Lexi Mueldener was led by Coach Wendy Davies.

In the individual standings Remley finished tied for fourth at 82-74, for a combined score of 156.

“It’s really cool. I’m so very proud of the team,” said Davies. “The round (May 23) was phenomenal. Everyone played really well today.”

On the final day, Remley carded an 74, Mueldener a 77, Eye a 78 and McKibbon an 81.

“Our highest score was 81 that we threw out. Any time you can throw out an 81 you know you can come back to win. We were hunting,” said Davies.

The team also won the league and regional title this year.

Ralston Valley’s girl’s golf team holds up their school’s first state title trophy.

The art and possibility of paper IF YOU GO

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Paper is not just a canvas on which art can be created. In its myriad incarnations — tissue, cast, folded and countless others — it can also be used as the medium and form of creative expression.

And that’s just what the artists in the Arvada Center’s three summer exhibitions — Stan Meyer: Poetic Presence, Paper on Paper: The Art of ChineCollé, and Paper.Works — did.

“We’ve been wanting to do a paper show here for a while,” said Kristin Bueb, exhibition coordinator at the center. “In the exhibits, we tried to find a mix of representational and abstract works. Some of these artists have shown here before, but for others, this is their first time.”

The three exhibits run at the center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., June 1 through Aug. 6. Galleries are open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, and 1 to 5 p.m.

Sunday. The galleries also remain open until 7:30 p.m. on evenings with theater performances.

In the Main Gallery, Paper.Works exhibits the work of 20 artists who work in paper. The works on display range from miniature, extraordinarily detailed creations to huge sculptures and wall installations.

“This is the first time I’ve seen this work installed at full size,” said Peter Yumi, whose massive work, “The Mark

Ken Elliott’s “Descending Trees I.” PHOTOS COURTESY OF ARVADA CENTER

of the Beast SOS,” hangs in the gallery.

“The piece is about the 2016 election, how people reacted to it and acted toward each other on social media.”

Yumi’s creation blends classical images from Greek and biblical myths with distortions and images from modern society.

“It was a tremendous challenge doing it in the time span I had, but I get tearyeyed seeing it now,” he said. “I hope people who see it ask some questions and take a look at online behavior and how we communicate.”

The Theatre Gallery is home to Paper on Paper: The Art of Chine-Collé, which features the work of Mark Lunning, Ken Elliott, Jane Braley, Lynn Heitler and Amy Metier — printmak-

Chine-collé is a printmaking process that transfers a print onto a support surface and thinner, more delicate papers that become a part of the printed image, according to information provided by the center. The end result is a piece that appears both simple and of great depth.

In the Upper Gallery, visitors will see the works of Stan Meyer in his exhibit, Poetic Presence. Meyer creates flat-woven pieces out of roofing paper, taking inspiration from the designs of ancient cultures like the Celts and Maori, nature and architecture.

“I like the idea of language and calligraphy,” Meyer explained. “I want the

Creating his large-scale works requires a lot of time and attention to detail, especially during the weaving portion of their creation.

“For me, it’s all about the language and shape,” he said. “What’s great about abstracts is you can take whatever you want out of them.”
