After 76 years, Meyer Hardware closing doors Store represents “longest hardware store legacy” in Colorado BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Steve Schaefer has never known a day without Meyer Hardware. His grandfather, Joe Meyer, purchased the store he would rename after himself in 1945, several years before Steve was even born. But Steve joined him there as soon as he could. “I started here when I was 10 years old,” Steve said. “After school, I’d walk across the creek and come over here and clean the bathrooms and mop the floor and put different things together like tricycles and wheelbarrows.” But now, after 56 years of working at the store, including 25 as its president after he took over for his own parents, Harold and Marilyn SEE MEYER, P6

Jeffco 4-H kids are busy preparing their cows, pigs and goats for Jeffco’s annual county fair. But when they get to the fairgrounds, they may no longer fully recognize the event they know and love. That’s because the county announced in 2019 that it was dissolving the annual fair and festival, which included food trucks, bands and rodeos and other festivities along with the kid’s 4-H shows and competitions that are the centerpiece of the fair. However, those shows and competitions, as well as the annual livestock auction and youth market, are now continuing on with a smaller new event called the Jeffco 4-H Junior Fair. Now, after a year in which the fair had to be scaled back even further because of COVID-19, Jeffco is set to get its first taste of this new version of the fair from July 31-Aug. 8. Jaren Tolman, a Jeffco 4-H leader whose kids will be competing in the fair, said that while the changes mean attendees will no longer be able to enjoy as activities as they have in the past, the actual 4-H activities will look much as the same as they have in previous years. The one major change? The fair

In Jeffco, Hispanic residents lag far behind whites on vaccinations Issues of trust and access behind only about a quarter of group being vaccinated BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
In June, Jefferson County reached a pivotal moment in the effort to protect the community from COVID-19 when it surpassed President Biden’s goal of 70% residents receiving at least one shot days by July 4. But while surpassing that 70% threshold was overall good news for the county, not all communities within it are close to being covered by that level of vaccination. Most glaringly, JCPH data suggests that Hispanic residents have so far been vaccinated at less than half the rate of white residents. As of July 8, about 26% of Hispanic residents in Jeffco were fully vaccinated while another 3% were partially vaccinated. In comparison, about 66% of white residents have been fully vaccinated while another 3% were partially vaccinated. However, about 10.4% of Jeffco residents who have received vaccinations declined to disclose their race. But even if every person who declined to disclose their race when receiving the vaccine was Hispanic, the percentage of vaccinated Hispanic Jeffco residents would still lag far behind white residents. Dr. Oswaldo Grenardo, a physician with Centura Health who is also one of the chairs of the Colorado Vaccine Equity Taskforce, said the comparatively low rate of vaccination for Hispanic residents not only in Jefferson County but across the state is particularly concerning given that Hispanics have been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19. According to CDC data last updated on July 16, Hispanics have the highest rate of COVID-19 cases nationwide of any ethnic or racial group. In America, Hispanic people are also 2.8 times more likely to be
hospitalized with COVID-19 and 2.3 times more likely to die from the disease than White people. “The pandemic hit the Hispanic, Black and Native American community much harder in terms of both health outcomes and economic outcomes than anybody else,” said Grenardo. “And so with the Delta variant running through unvaccinated communities, we are even more at risk for the Latinx community to have even worse outcomes and extend the problems of this pandemic in their community.” Reasons for disparity varied, complex The experts Colorado Community Media spoke to for this story said the reasons for the low rate of vaccination are both many and complex, and range from concerns about providing personal data to the government to get the vaccine to fear of the vaccine itself, which is often spread by misinformation specifically targeting Spanish speakers. Sandie Weathers, a volunteer with Hispanic community organization Conectando, says helping to organize COVID-19 vaccination events targeted toward serving Lakewood’s Hispanic communities has given her a new understanding of what must be done to effectively reach those residents. On April 14, JCPH worked with Weathers to hold a drive-up clinic in the parking lot of the Alameda Crossing shopping center that vaccinated 914 people, most of them Hispanic. However, she feels that the county, state and other vaccine providers have missed an opportunity to build on the success of that event by establishing a more permanent vaccination presence at the shopping center or other locations frequented by Hispanic residents. “Are we steadily there every week?” she said. “No, we are not. We’ve done clinics in Hispanic neighborhoods, but I don’t think we’ve been steady and consistent.” Later that month, Weathers helped organize another clinic for the Hispanic community at the Phillips United Methodist Church about two-and-a-half miles from Alameda Crossing. However, that clinic didn’t get nearly the turnout of the
first one, despite Weathers doing what she said was the same level of legwork to inform the community about it. “What my gut tells me is it’s because Phillips isn’t seen as a Latino church but as, for lack of a better term, “a white church,” said Weathers, who also noted that the lack of turnout at Phillips wasn’t the church’s fault. “For me as a community organizer who wants to have good turnout, it’s about finding those locations that are trusted by the Latino community.” Weathers said there have since been more successful clinics at a local Mexican bakery and nearby Hispanic church, but that more consistent clinics at those types of locations are needed so that people can get used to seeing them there. JCPH Executive Director Dawn Comstock told Colorado Community Media earlier in July that the county remains “short of its goal” to ensure that everyone has equal access to COVID-19 vaccines. “We are acutely aware of the need to do everything we can to work with our community partners and community navigators to really make sure that we can meet our high-priority populations where they want us to meet them and in the way that they want us to meet them so answer their questions, address their concerns and make receiving a vaccination as convenient as possible,” she said. Among the major challenges Comstock said JCPH has faced — and began to overcome—is the high number of vaccinated people for whom the county does not know the race, which made efforts to target vaccinations more effectively difficult. In response to that issue, JCOS began using address data to determine which neighborhoods have higher and lower rates of vaccinations and place more targeted clinics in those communities. Comstock said identifying those communities has also allowed JCOS to send people into those neighborhoods to get a better understanding of the situation on the ground with regards to vaccination. She said: “We would talk to folks in that neighborhood and find out is it
an issue of access? Do we do we just need to bring more vaccinae tion units to them? Is it an issue of w distrust? Can we go in and build l some confidence and comfort? Can l we work with their trusted health t care providers? Can we work with s trusted leaders in that area? Is it an issue of hesitancy? Do we just need p to share more information about the a w vaccines?” Tara Trujillo, the state’s COVID-19 i Vaccination Campaign Manager, t said in an email to JCPH that the “ state has taken a multifaceted apw proach to getting communities of color vaccinated that has involved t everything from launching a 24/7 r vaccine hotline that provides information in Spanish and other y e languages as well as English to directing a “significant” portion of f its statewide marketing campaign to m ads that have run on Spanish radio and television and creative marketing approaches in Spanish-speaking grocery stores and restaurants. The state is also now calling and texting unvaccinated Coloradoans in both English and Spanish to encourage them to get vaccinated, However, some of the biggest lifts have included introducing a vaccination bus that travels to underrepresented communities to deliver vaccinations and organizing a total of 1,400 pop-up clinics with trusted community organizations within underserved communities, including some in Jeffco. The bus and those clinics have combined to deliver over 450,000 doses. However, Trujillo said that while the state is proud of its outreach efforts, it knows more work must be done to remove barriers and increase vaccine access within communities of color. Trujillo also noted that Colorado is one of many states struggling with vaccine uptake in communities of color, a situation which ultimately speaks to the need to dismantle long-established systemic barriers to health. “We know the only way to combat these inequities is to be committed to comprehensive health equity efforts to reach disproportionately impacted communities,” she said in an email to Colorado Community Media.

JUNIOR FAIR FROM PAGE 1
events are now spread over a full week, a change that was instituted last year in response to the challenges of putting on the fair during the pandemic and which proved successful. With the fair again open to the public again Tolman said there is an opportunity for the public to see what the fair is all about by attending some of the events. “It’s free and the public can come to any of the shows,” said Tolman. “The bars will be open and they walk through them, meet the kids, talk to them, all of those things.” This year’s fair will also see the return of the livestock auction and youth market. During the auction, each kid showing livestock in the fair gets to auction one of their animals to members of the public.
The auction, which starts at 5 p.m. on Aug. 7 is followed by the youth market, where fair participants where fair participants sell the rest of their meat while participants in the non-livestock portions of the fair, such as cake decorating and leatherworks, can also sell their projects. The auction is preceded by a barbecue dinner (dinner tickets are $7 at 4 p.m.). For many of the fair participants, just being able to hold a somewhat normal fair at all is a cause for celebration given not only the pandemic and the changes that have resulted from a county decision to cut costs at the fairground by limiting activities at the fairground to those that involve “youth, agriculture and equine activities.” But while there are still plenty of uncertainties that are still to be worked out when it comes to the future of both the fairgrounds and the fair itself, Tollman said there is also cause for optimism as the number

That’s exciting, Tollman said, because it is the experiences of those kids, not add-ons like food trucks and concerts, that are ultimately why the fair is worth having, keeping around and checking out, even if you don’t have kids involved. “My favorite part is always just observing the youth that are competing in the fair,” he said. “Very rarely will you see a group of kids that are in competition but then helping each other, say, show a lamb

Brokerages Should Allow Agents to Enter or Change Their Listings on the MLS
At Golden Real Estate, each agent (under my supervision) enters and updates their own listings on the MLS. I believe that promotes accuracy. But many brokerages block their agents from accessing their own listings, often resulting in incomplete or inaccurate data. One would hope that agents in those brokerages see how their listings were entered and tell their admins when mistakes have been made or data omitted, but that’s not guaranteed. One of our promises to Golden Real Estate’s sellers is that we complete all fields on the MLS, not just the mandatory ones. Did you know that in addition to the “public remarks” for listings, there is a place to enter a description of every room in the house? Very few agents — under 50% by my count — bother to enter a description for any of the rooms, and some don’t even bother to list rooms other than bedrooms and bathrooms. Dimensions can be entered for each room, too (rounded to the nearest foot), but I find very few agents who bother with that detail either. Our office policy is to enter room dimensions and descrip-
tions for every room in every listing. Brokerages which require all listings to be entered by their unlicensed administrative staff are less likely to have these non-mandatory fields entered. If they would make each agent responsible for such data entry and then monitor their work as we do, I believe that buyers would have much more useful and accurate information for each listing. Other optional fields in the MLS include: Is the property owner occupied, tenant occupied or vacant? What is the zoning? What direction does the home face? How close are bus stops and light rail stations? Is that address incorporated or unincorporated? Does it have city or mountain views, or other views? What are the dimensions and features of the garage/carport/RV parking? Are there other structures/sheds on the property and what are their dimensions and features? What appliances are in the house? What kinds of flooring is there? Does it have any fireplaces, and where are they? If there’s an HOA, what are the fees and what do those fees cover?
Bidding Wars Slowing for Higher Priced Homes This is my regular update on the real estate bidding wars. This week I chose to analyze the closings that occurred last Thursday, July 22nd, to see how the bidding wars have evolved over the past few weeks. As before, the source for this monthly analysis is REcolorado.com. As I did in previous months, I limited my analysis to sales within a 15-mile radius of downtown Denver. I limited my search to listings that were active on our MLS at least one day and not more than 6 days before going under contract. Those are homes that likely had bidding wars. On July 22nd there were 36 closings up to $500,000, compared to 55 closings on June 28th. The median home sold for 6.3% over its asking price, compared to 5.4% on June 28th. The highest ratio this time was 18.5% for a home in SW Denver, compared to 20.8% on June 28th for a townhome in Littleton. Three listings sold for the asking price, and three sold for less than listing price, compared to four and six respectively on June 28th.
There were 48 homes that closed on July 22nd for more than $500,000, compared to 53 homes on June 28th. The median home in that group sold for 3.2% over its listing price, compared to 8.7% on June 28th. Only six sold for the listing price, and six sold for less than the listing price. The highest overbid in this group was 18% for a home north of Denver’s City Park, compared to 32% on June 28th. To have a statistically significant number of closings over $1 million, I analyzed the 78 such closings over a longer period — July 12-26. The median closing for those high-end homes was 5.3% over listing price, compared to 6.6% from late June. Nine homes sold for the listing price and 8 homes sold for less than the listing price, compared to 12 and 6 respectively in late June. The highest overbid was 24.8% for a bungalow in Denver’s Hilltop neighborhood, which was listed at $950,000 and sold in three days for $1,186,000. On June 28th four million-dollar homes sold for more than 30% over their listing price.
Our office policy is not only to complete every field on our MLS listings, but to share our MLS data entry in draft form with the seller before making it live on the MLS, which also helps to assure
accuracy and completeness of our listings. (I also make sure the seller approves the write-up of their home which is to appear in this ad.)
When Will Your Car Need These Expensive Repairs?
Other than for a flat tire, you’ll almost never see an electric car on the side of the road awaiting a service vehicle or tow truck. That’s because an EV will never need any of the following expensive repairs — the parts simply don’t exist on an EV: Transmission Timing belt Fuel pump Muffler or stolen catalytic converter Water pump Fan belt Power steering pump Power brakes pump Radiator leak/anti-freeze Engine work of any kind Spark plugs/points Emissions inspection Oxygen sensor — and more! There’s no “check engine” light because there’s no engine, so you won’t pay to “pull codes” and reset that warning light. The electric motors in EVs, like those in other devices, are dependable, only failing if they are worked too hard, and the computers in Teslas (and presumably other EVs) don’t let that happen.
EVs have Battery Management Systems (BMS) which are critical to maintaining battery health and performance. In Teslas, there is a sealed coolant system which maintains the battery at its optimum performance temperature (70° F) year-round, including cooling it when it is being supercharged or sending a high level of power to the motors. Lithium batteries, unlike lead acid batteries, do not fail abruptly, but rather degrade slightly over time. The reason lead acid batteries fail abruptly, I’m told, is that they consume the lead when they are charged and discharged. Lithium ion batteries don’t consume the lithium. The rate of degradation has been estimated at 1% per year, so a battery with 300 miles of range might degrade to 270 miles of range in 10 years. As people wait for the purchase price of EVs to equal those of gas-powered cars — which has largely happened — they shouldn’t overlook the lower cost of fuel (3 to 4 cents per mile vs.10 cents and higher) and the dramatically lower cost of maintenance and repair. And fleet buyers won’t have to buy 12 EVs in order to always have 10 on the road because of how rarely they’ll be in the shop.
Price Reduced on Home With 24’x24’ Workshop This home at 14122 W. 59th Ave. is in Arvada, a half mile south of the Susan M. $990,000 Duncan YMCA. It was advertised last week for $1.1 million. The owner, who had the home built to his specifications, is a retired engineer, and he will provide the buyer with complete plans for the home and its 24’x24’ detached workshop. The workshop, which has 240V power, is visible at the end of driveway. It is insulated, heated and air conditioned and is being sold with all the tools, work benches and machines! The home has been beautifully maintained inside and out, with great landscaping. There is no HOA, so there’s a 13’x35’ RV parking space next the workshop, too! To fully appreciate this amazing home, watch my narrated video tour of it and the workshop at www.ArvadaHome.info, then call your agent or me at 303-525-1851 for a private showing. Come to my open house this Saturday, from 11 am to 1 pm.

Arvada Center hosts memorial for Johnny Hurley Hundreds show support for Olde Town shooting Good Samaritan BY RYAN DUNN RDUNN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Friends, family and members of the community came in droves to remember Johnny Hurley, killed in
the June 21 Olde Town shooting, as a principled, selfless person who wouldn’t think twice about helping someone in need. A memorial for Hurley was held at the Arvada Center on July 20 and followed by a celebration of life at Robby Ferrufino Park later that day. The memorial featured speeches from Hurley’s family and friends and was attended by more than 300 people, while the celebration of life offered a space for those in mourn-
ing to share food, play arcade games and take part in psychic readings. Hurley was remembered by those who knew him as someone who always put others first, as he did on June 21, when he rushed to the aid of fallen Arvada Police Officer Gordon Beesley during an active shooter situation. According to the APD, Hurley shot Beesley’s killer Ronald Troyke before Hurley was fatally shot by a responding Arvada
police officer. The officer has been placed on administrative leave pending the results of a Jefferson County Critical Incident Team investigation. Hurley’s friends and family stressed that he was a hero long before the events of June 21. He was known to go above and beyond for clients during his time at All Love Catering, and recently helped SEE HURLEY, P5

According to those who knew him, Hurley was known to stand up for what he believed was right, even if it caused disagreements. His father, a longtime U.S. diplomat, recalled a rough patch between the two due to differences of opinion on foreign policy and other political issues. Eventually, the elder Hurley said, the two reconciled and agreed to disagree. An avid outdoorsman, a family camping trip brought Hurley to the

Army and Navy Surplus Store in Olde Town Arvada on that fateful Monday in search of supplies. APD Public Information Officer Dave Snelling said that Hurley’s actions undoubtedly saved lives, as Troyke had threatened to kill more APD officers. “I can guarantee you that he saved many lives,” said Snelling. “There’s absolutely no doubt from our perspective, and that’s why we labeled him a hero right out of the gate, because it was very obvious how he did something amazing. He ran into the direction of danger, which is just remarkable. Overall, a great dude. “What makes it so respectable,” Snelling continued, “is that even though he had questions about the
government, and he saw a police officer down, he still ran over to help. He separated the badge from the person, he truly saw just a person (in Beesley).” Arvada Mayor Marc Williams commended Hurley’s heroic actions and hinted that naming something in Hurley’s honor was on the city’s radar. “He was obviously a very interesting guy,” said Williams, “and he definitely deserved the reputation of being a hero. I know there will be efforts, we’ve had requests for naming opportunities in his honor. We have a process and procedure that we’ll follow so we’ll see what comes out of that. We certainly want to memorialize his actions appropriately.”

MEYER FROM PAGE 1
Schaefer, Steve said the time has come for him to move on. So Meyer Hardware is slated to close for good at the end of September. “I’m just tired and that’s strictly it,” said Steve. “I’m almost 67 and I’ve really been kind of married to the store so it’s time to rekindle my marriage with my wife and spend more time with my family and my nine grandchildren.” While Steve said he feels strongly that now is the right time to move on, he said the decision to close has been a “deeply emotional one.” He had originally hoped to find a buyer for the business. Although he did have several conversations with people who expressed some initial interest, he never found a viable buyer. “It is disappointing to not be able to continue the legacy,” he said. The family’s ownership of the store lasted three generations. However, Golden historian Richard Gardner said the store’s history actually dates back to 1892 when William Mark Sarell opened a hardware store called Sarell & Dawson at what is now 1116 Ford St. When Sarell retired in 1940 after 74 years of owning businesses in Golden, he passed the store to his son who sold it a few years later. The business would then change owners three more times before being purchased by Meyer, who had previously owned feed and hardware stores in Nebraska for several years.

“Each year my mom would take me to pick out a little knick knack from upstairs,” she said. “Usually it was a little porcelain bird or a small decorative plate. I loved going there.” Christi Lightcap Fortune said that she will remember Meyer Hardware as a place where “we could always find whatever we needed — and lots of stuff we didn’t realize we needed on the top floor.” “We would always wander through there for the pure enjoyment of seeing new kitchen gadgets,” she said in a Facebook comment about the store. Another commenter, Connor Krause, said he enjoyed many visits to the store with his cocker spaniel, Ozzy, and made sure to take him through the aisles one more time before he died in May. “[I] will miss it dearly, it is such a pillar of authenticity to what Golden stood for and a friendly reminder each time I would be in there (or even just pass by) of the embodiment of the simple things that gave me the first true feeling of `home’ from a community,” he wrote. He then added “you better believe I’m coming in for my last trip just as
Ozzy got his.” Many residents took to social media to bemoan the impact of development on the store, with some questioning whether the store was going out of business because of competition from Home Depot or other big box stores. However, Steve said the decision was driven solely by his desire to retire and not the big box stores or the pandemic. When asked what he will miss most about the store, Steve mentioned his employees, many of whom have worked at the store for decades. Among them is manager Craig Sarensen, who has worked at the store for 36 years and is also planning to retire in a few years. Steve’s brother, James, has also worked at the store for 49 years and will be retiring once it closes. Then, of course, there are the decades of customers. “Without the Golden community supporting us over the years we wouldn’t have been able to make it this long,” he said. “So thank you to everyone. You people could have gone anywhere else and they came here.”

Pro-gun rally at Lakewood park Jeffco Sheriff vows not to enforce park rules against concealed carry BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
An online flyer calling for “patriots interested in preserving their Second Amendment birthright,” to congregate at Lakewood’s Addenbrooke Park, July 21, turned out to be a mostly low-key affair. One large, silver pickup truck, American flag decals on the side, was the only indication you were in the right place. Light rain with dark skies threatening a downpour at any moment may have dampened turnout. Fly-fishers, unbothered by the weather, practiced their casting on the grass nearby as a small group of around 20 people gathered to voice disagreement with a Foothills Parks and Recreation District (FHPRD) rule under discussion, that would prohibit concealed carry at any of its facilities. Senate Bill 21-256, co-sponsored by Sen. Jessie Danielson (CO-20) and recently signed into law by Governor Jared Polis, gives more regulatory authority over firearms to local governments. It allows entities like FHPRD to enact ordinances, laws or rules that regulate the sale, purchase, transfer or possession of firearms in ways that are
not less restrictive than state law. No weapons of any kind could be seen at Addenbrooke Park (open carry is already prohibited in City of Lakewood parks). And only occasional, verbal potshots at liberals, Democrats and the media were fired. One woman in attendance said a ban on concealed carry in Jeffco parks was a slippery slope to Nazi-ism. The crowd — mostly in the 60-something age range — listened attentively as Jeffco Sheriff Jeff Schrader gave his thoughts on the discussed rule, explaining his belief that it wasn’t enforceable by his office. “We don’t have any role in investigating Special District rules,” he said. Schrader said park rules are a civil matter that should be left to park districts or municipalities to enforce. He also voiced his concern that if there was an over-reaction to the proposed rule, lawmakers might come back next year and attempt to make it a crime instead of just a civil infraction. Regardless, he likened the FHPRD situation to the state’s 2013 ban on high-capacity magazines, saying that it wouldn’t be a priority for his department. “I don’t make the law. You don’t want the sheriff to make the law. You just want the sheriff to enforce the law. But I have the ability to prioritize the resources that I have,” he said. “Those laws (magazine capacity) don’t have priority.”
Schrader went on to clarify that if a crime is committed, every aspect of it is thoroughly investigated and if a banned high-capacity magazine was used, that fact would be included in the report. But he said, at that point, magazine capacity of the weapon used wouldn’t be as big of a concern as other aspects of the crime. His analogy was to stress that if a crime were committed on an FHPRD property, the fact that it was a concealed weapon would not be the main concern. Tina Francone, former appointed District 3 Commissioner, also spoke at the meeting. She said discussion of the rule should be a wake-up call for Jeffco residents, telling those in attendance to pay close attention to local levels of government and encouraging them to let their voices be heard in future FHPRD meetings. “The bottom line is, do you want your tax dollars being spent in this way for a problem that’s non-existent,” she said. Francone also said, in her opinion, the rules would be completely un-enforceable because it would be impossible to put fences around
parks to search visitors for concealed weapon. Ronald Hopp, FHPRD Executive Director, said there’s no discussion of fencing properties — signs would be used to inform visitors if the rule was implemented. He said when the District’s board was made aware that SB 21-256 had been enacted, allowing Special Districts to prohibit concealed carry, they talked about considering a rule change but haven’t come to a position yet. “It’s a discussion and consideration, not a proposal,” he said. “Our board is talking about this because we had an incident happen where a person who had a concealed carry permit left a gun in a public bathroom and it remained in the facility until the janitorial crew found it 12 hours later.” He said the real question is whether guns belong in recreational facilities and parks. FHPRD oversees numerous facilities including three recreation centers, eight swimming pools, two indoor sports centers and 68 parks. It also manage six regional trail corridors.

State won’t require masks for vaccinated students
Some districts have already said they won’t mandate face coverings in the fall BY ERICA MELTZER CHALKBEAT COLORADO
Colorado students, teachers, and school staff who are vaccinated won’t have to wear masks at school and won’t have to quarantine after COVID exposure, state health officials said in new guidance released for the 2021-22 school year. Masks are recommended — but not required — for people who are not vaccinated, which currently includes all children under 12. School districts could choose to set stricter policies. The recommendation matches school guidance released earlier this month by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “Masking is an especially critical strategy when a community is at higher risk of transmission,” state health officials wrote. “Schools should create an accepting environment for parents and students who choose to use masks even when they are not required.” Some Colorado school districts have already announced they won’t require masks next year, while in others, officials said they were weighing their options and waiting for state guidance.

health officials said it’s important to keep children safe and healthy, but children’s well-being extends beyond the risk of COVID. “We want to make sure that schools remain a safe place, and this plan outlines ways to reduce potential transmission of COVID-19 in the school setting, while facilitating in-person learning,” CDPHE executive director Jill Hunsaker Ryan said in a press release announcing the new guidance. The state guidance, released July 20, calls for different approaches in communities with high vaccination rates and low community transmission and those with low vaccination rates and high community transmission. COVID and vaccination rates vary significantly around the state. Mesa County, in particular, with vaccination rates around 42%, has become a hotspot for the Delta variant, and cases have strained hospital capacity there. But the guidance is just that — recommendations — and school districts and local public health agencies have the authority to set policy. “This guidance strongly recommends local leaders and school leaders take a layered approach to prevention,” health officials wrote, including ventilation, staying home when sick, and frequent hand-washing. “Communities with higher rates of transmission and low vaccination rates should continue to take heightened COVID-19 precautions. Local public health still has the authority to enforce local public health orders, which may include quarantine requirements.” The state no longer recommends quarantining of close contacts in school settings, even for unvaccinated students, in counties where at least 70% of eligible people have received at least one dose of the vaccine and case rates are not above 35 per 100,000 people in a seven-day period — or in school buildings with similarly high vaccination rates and a weekly testing regime.
However, in counties and schools with lower vaccination rates, higher case rates, and no plan for frequent testing, state health officials continue to recommend quarantine for close contacts. The guidance also recommends that people exposed outside a school setting continue to quarantine. Large outbreaks or the emergence of new variants could also lead to quarantine requirements. The guidance cites contact sports, indoor sports, band and choir as activities that are higher risk and require special precautions, such as routine testing and quarantine after exposure. “During the spring 2021 semester, outbreaks of COVID 19 often originated with these groups of students and then spread to the larger school community, disrupting learning,” the guidance states. State health officials continue to stress the importance of vaccination. Rates vary widely around the state, and fewer than half of eligible students ages 12 to 18 are currently vaccinated, with just a few weeks to go before school starts. State Epidemiologist Rachel Herlihy pointed to the steep decline in hospitalizations and deaths in counties with high vaccination rates. At the same time, she noted that schools serve a large unvaccinated population and will for many months to come. It’s not clear when vaccines for younger children will be approved by federal regulators. “Our unvaccinated Coloradans remain vulnerable to the new variants, especially the Delta variant, which appears to be more likely to make young people ill than previous variants,” she said in a statement. “Because many students have yet to be vaccinated and students under 12 are not yet eligible for the vaccine, we must continue to remain vigilant, take important mitigation steps that can reduce transmission of COVID-19, and address outbreaks in a safe and thoughtful manner.” To read the full guidance, go to tinyurl.com/COSchoolGuidance.

Mines grad named RMAC Woman of Year Sydney Marchando reaches excellence in athletics and academics BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Sydney Marchando, a graduate of Colorado School of Mines in Golden, was named the 2020-21 Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC) Woman of the Year. Marchando, who attended Rock Canyon High School in Highlands Ranch, said she is excited to be honored by the RMAC after playing softball for the past eight years. “I was happy, but my family was even more excited,” she said. “It is special because they have been really supportive over the years. What an awesome way to end my time at the Colorado School of Mines.” The RMAC Man and Woman of the Year awards honor graduating student-athletes who have distinguished themselves throughout their college career in areas of academic achievement, athletic excellence, community service and leadership. Marchando, a senior pitcher for Colorado School of Mines, tied a bow on her final year with the Orediggers’ softball team, racking up 84 strikeouts over 111.2 innings pitched for nine wins and a Second Team All-RMAC nod. Throughout her four-year career with the Oredig-
gers, Marchando cemented her spot in the Mines record books, finishing fifth in program history for wins with 31 and sixth all-time for strikeouts with 281. Marchando is a three-time First Team RMAC All-Academic selection, a three-time CoSIDA Academic All-District honoree, and was also named the 2021 RMAC Academic Softball Player of the Year. Marchando, 22, said athletics has been one of the best parts of being at Mines. “Athletics here taught me to be a part of a community and learn true ethics,” Marchando said. “I played four years in high school and in competitive leagues. I played at the School of Mines. All of it has been great. I am grateful for my time at the School of Mines.” In academics. Marchando has reached the same level of excellence as in athletics. While at Mines, she completed her degree in chemical engineering, earning a 3.99 GPA. Marchando was named the 2021 President’s Senior Scholar-Athlete award winner, an honor presented to a student-athletes who demonstrate outstanding leadership and athletic and academic achievement. Marchando was also awarded the Blaster Award for Community Impact, an award presented to Mines student-athletes who work to better the Golden community. She also received the Oredigger Excellence Award, which is given to a Mines student-athlete who demonstrates

outstanding leadership, achievement, and school spirit. Marchando committed a large portion of her time off the softball diamond to community service projects within the college’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, including the 2020 Holiday Toy Drive, the 2020 Canned Food Drive, the 2019 Sports Equipment and Clothing Drive and the Special Olympics. Community service is where Marchando is most proud of her time at Mines. The college graduate said four years in Golden taught her a lot about the importance of giving back to the community and spreading knowledge through various mentorship programs. Marchando said she worked a lot with young female students, encouraging them to take up science and engineering programs. “I really believe it is important to talk to our youth about how important engineering and STEM programs can be,” she said. “When you are attending college, you realize the importance of getting involved on

explained that the company is committed to maintaining ownership of the land and redeveloping it itself in a process that would involve preserving and repurposing some of the site’s most iconic historic buildings while also building new structures. However, he said that the company is also still in the early stages of determining what types of uses and mix of them would make sense for the site, although the company so far believes that including residential and retail components, and possibly a hotel, would likely make sense. The representatives also explained that the eventual project would likely happen in stages over a period of a decade or more. “The site is 12-acres so it’s quite large and a pretty unique opportunity to help Golden reimagine this portion of the city,” said Coors. City rules required Coorstek to hold the community meeting because the company is planning to apply to rezone sections of the property to allow modest increases in the building heights allowed on those sections. Currently, the site is governed by a patchwork zoning that limits building heights to 30 feet in some sections but allows buildings of up to 65 feet in others (although some current buildings on the site are actually just under 85 feet). Coorstek is seeking to rezone the site to the customizable planned
urban development category and institute a new 85-foot limit for all buildings on the site. “This project can be built on the existing zoning but not at the high quality we would like to be,” said Dan Cohen, who is consulting with the Coors family on the project. “We would have to devote a lot of the land area to parking. The [zoning] code is primarily driven by parcel by parcel parking and doesn’t take into account a fiveblock area kind of district.” Because of that, Coorstek will ask the city to write a “district parking” strategy for the development into the planned urban development, which would mandate a certain amount of parking for the whole development instead of each individual building. The plan is for the parking to then be constructed in a mix of underground lots and wrapped within new structures so as to not impact or disrupt the visual experience of the development. Cohen said Coorstek is also planning to ask the city to write several other commitments into the planned urban development, including commitments to including 10% affordable housing in the development, funding public art for the development, creating open space within the development that would be accessible to the public and making the area’s parking available to community residents and visitors at nights and on weekends when it is not in use by workers at the Coorstek headquarters. Following the presentation, meeting attendees asked several questions relating to issues rang-

ing from whether the project would include improvements to Tucker Gulch (Cohen said it is not part of the property but Coorstek would be open to working on improvements with the city) to whether Coorstek would consider the city’s Heart of Golden project and vice-versa in their planning (both parties said they would). During the meeting, Golden resident James Smith said he was concerned that Coorstek was asking for a lot of changes with the promise that residents would get something back. “I just want to know what kind of commitments we are getting back,” he said, after saying he was con-
cerned all the project’s open space would be shoved against Highway 58 where it is difficult to access and unpleasant to use. Cohen responded that the planned urban development would contain specific requirements, such as that the open space be spread around the development, and that those requirements would represent an improvement over what could just be build within the existing zoning. “If the city chooses to do this we will be required to do those things,” Cohen said. “And open space is actually an easy one because if this gets approved you would be getting a lot more than if we built with the existing zoning.”

S
ome of you might remember radio broadcaster Paul Harvey. He always ended his daily program with two words. “Good day.” Hippies turned that into “Have a nice day.” Then “Have a good day” came along. Then “Have a good rest of the day.” And now, as I live and breathe, “Have a great rest of the day” was wished upon me at a hardware store by a young woman who said the same thing to the customer ahead of me and the one that followed me. I felt special knowing she had composed that thought just for the three of us. Whatever happened to “Thank you”? “Have a great rest of the day,” if examined, broken down, analyzed, borders on a command and practically chokes on its own hyperbole. Waiting around the bend is “Have a mindblowing rest of the day,” and “Have an outof-this-world rest of the day.” I thought about asking the young woman if she was referring to my afternoon nap, but decided she wouldn’t get it. In other words, my “rest” of the day. We do like to exaggerate, don’t we? For a while, I was receiving emails from

someone who ended every sentence with at least three exclamation marks. When I informed her that I couldn’t take it any longer, well, she replied with three words and thirty exclamation marks. The recent All-Star baseball game in Denver was a bore, but the hoopla that went on before, during and after it made up for a sport that, sadly, has become a stranger to me. It’s all home runs and strikeouts. The Dodgers hit eight home runs in a game against the Diamondbacks. That’s Little League stuff. Subtlety is a lost art. Art is a lost art. Look for the grand opening of Meow Wolf in downtown Denver. It’s “interactive art for all ages.” We used to call those “fun houses” at the circus. Interactive means the art doesn’t just stay there on the wall and mind its own business like a Picasso or a Rembrandt. It jumps around or jumps at you and makes your head spin. Just what I’m looking for. Let’s get back to “Have a great rest of the day.” I’d settled for ten great minutes.

Modern life doesn’t allow (me) to have up to twelve hours that are unbroken by an interruption, annoyance, nuisance or exasperation. Ten days after the Fourth, some of my beloved neighbors were still shooting off fireworks. Maybe if I were in a home with Harry next to a lake with the regional birds filling the air with song, I might have a great rest of the day. But here in the trenches it’s a project just getting to that hardware store and back without witnessing a near accident or being s involved in one. a As I have said before, there’s a major intersection near me where you can always u D pick up some spare automobile parts. c Henry David Thoreau spent two years, two months, and two days at Walden Pond p in a 15-by-10-foot cabin he built for himself. l Good for him.

verything you need to know for life can be found in Star Trek. If you’re smart enough to listen. For instance, one HITTING lesson I learned HOME from Chief Engineer Montgomery Scott “Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.” There’s a chance he got it from somewhere else, but in my mind, it will always have come from him. To illustrate: two Michael Alcorn weeks ago, our refrigerator died. Great timing, right? Middle of July… who really needs to keep their food cold? So, off we go, my wife and I, hunting for a new refrigerator. Of course, the first stop was Amazon, but… That would have taken too long. It’s not like they have a distribution warehouse right in our back yard. So to the stores we go. (which, for me, is a lot like yellow alert), and we end up finding a decent deal on a great new refrigerator at a big box store which shall remain nameless, but we will refer to as Store B. Bad news, the fridge is not in stock; good news, the warehouse up in Wyoming has one in stock…
… and it can be delivered in 8 days. At this point, I need to back up. Five years ago, when we bought the refrigerator that pooped out on us, we actually bought several kitchen appliances all at the same time, from two different stores. Both stores promised us delivery on our timeline. The scheduled day of delivery arrived and, in perfect Colorado form, it was snowing that morning. Early in the morning, we get a phone call from Store B, telling us that conditions are too bad out and we won’t get delivery as promised that day, that day being the day before a holiday in which we were planning to use their appliance. And, to make matters worse (for Store B, that is), literally while we’re on the phone being informed that conditions made delivery impossible, a big old truck from Store A arrives with their share of our brand new appliances. In other words, our experience to this point with Store B’s delivery service has been … unfortunate. So you’re going to have to imagine my surprise when we got a call from Store B on the morning of our scheduled refrigerator delivery, telling us that the refrigerator was not in town and would not be delivered today. I guess it shouldn’t have been a surprise, given our history, but in retrospect, shame on me.

In case you’re wondering why we didn’t just go with Store A to replace f the refrigerator, well … The refrigera- c tor was the second of the three appliances we bought from Store A that e have died on us in the short five years f since we purchased them. I know the supply chain is what it is right now, and I know that there are any number of reasons beyond the control of the people who promise things that could influence the successful delivery of a new large appliance. But, seriously, Store B has a worse batting average with us right now than the Rockies do with runners in scoring position on the road. The point? If you have a company that delivers on its promises, stick with them; if you have a company, strive tirelessly to be a company famous for its reliability. You don’t want to end up in a Scottish proverb. On a different subject, my wife and I witnessed an auto accident the other day.

But the reason I’m writing this is because within seconds there were three people out of their cars checking on the two drivers, and

Two fun chances to get out and hear some live music
F
or a while, I used to drive my wife a little crazy. When we first got together she would have to endure hearing my stories of places I AVENUE have played with a band pretty FLASHES much every time we got in the car and went anywhere. We’d drive down the street, I’d spot some park or bar or hotel and launch into a tale about what happened John Akal when we did a show there. After playing music all over Colorado and every place under the sun and moon in the Denver metro area since 1974, you can imagine that my stories were plentiful and sometimes kind of lengthy. But she got pretty good at gently reminding me that she already heard that story, and since she goes to most of my gigs with me, she has acquired plenty of gig stories of her own that she can tell to all of her friends too. So, now we can just point to something and nod. We both already know the
story about that place. Of course, over the years I have played quite a few times in Golden, but I don’t really do shows here as often as you might expect since I live right here. For some reason, I end up all the way across the metro area in Aurora or in downtown Denver more often than I do right in my own back yard. But, every once in a while, I have a show booked in Golden, and next weekend I have a really rare situation of having two shows in town at two different locations. I try not to use this column for my own self promotion, but every once in a while I’m involved in a show or two that deserve a little coverage in Avenue Flashes. So, the first one is coming up on Saturday, August 7. Nightwolf will be playing for the Golden American Legion’s annual Pig Roast. We’ve played this one for several years and it’s always a lot of fun. They fire up the big grills early in the morning and start serving plates of roasted pork with all the trimmings at about 3 p.m. They also have raffles with pretty good prizes. The band starts at 5 p.m. and plays until 8 out on the patio and it always turns into a great party.

For more information, you can also call them at (303) 279-6300. The second one is going to be the next night, Sunday Aug. 8, when Nightwolf will be performing at Dirty Dogs Roadhouse at 17999 W. Colfax Ave. from 6- 9:30 p.m. We always love playing at there as it has a huge, concert sized outdoor stage, awesome sound system and engineer and always draws a large crowd. Now, this place is fast becoming an icon here in Golden. It started out as a small biker bar. Then it expanded it’s patio a little bit so they could have more Summer seating and put a band outside. Then they added the big stage and doubled the size of the patio. All of the expanded patio areas are covered too, so if they get a little rain, no problem. They kicked the big stage off by having Molly Hatchet there for the grand opening. Then COVID-19 hit last year. That shut everything down, but not Dirty Dogs. They proved that you can teach an old dog new tricks by first
focusing on their food with take-out service, then pitching a huge tent in the parking lot with an extra bar that became so popular they have kept it there and have plenty of seating available for everyone where you can see the bands performing from every angle. They book bands there every day, with two or sometimes three performing per day on the weekends. These guys are totally committed to live music so a big shout-out to Mark and Rob, the owners. They keep things rockin’ every day here in Golden. So, hey … Come out and see me next weekend. I’ll be the guy behind the drums and I love talking with my readers. Who knows? You could become a part of the next story I have about some place I played and the awesome people I have met along the way.

OBITUARIES DAVIS
Claudia Davis Succombing to complications of Alzheimer’s, my mother — my best friend — has passed away. How to recap the life of such a remarkable person in a few sentences? Impossible, but here is what I can muster at this time of grief: After a life of travels with husband Donald Davis, a career Air Force pilot (preceded in death), Claudia made Golden her home from 1968-2014. Claudia possessed amazing talents — a great mother, fabulous cook, singer, published poet… then on to becoming a self-made business entrepreneur. Two generations will fondly remember Claudia’s unique collectors’ stuffed animal shop, “Animal Krackers”, in Heritage Square, Golden. Claudia maintained her Southern charm — replete with big hair and Mississippi accent -- that endeared her to all.
From the 70s thru the 90s, Claudia delighted customers with her unique, handselected collection. (She is shown in the pic with one of her life-like stuffed toys). Long after she retired, past-customers would spot her in Safeway, hug her and tell her how she had helped create such special memories — for themselves, and then their own kids. And Claudia remembered each of them from their early childhood visits to the shop. Regretting to leave Golden, Claudia relocated in 2017 to be near her daughters in southern Arizona. Throughout the clutches of Alzheimer’s, she never lost her memories of Golden. Claudia is survived by two daughters: Karen Cannon (Tubac, AZ), and my sister Donna Garven (Green Valley, AZ), and grandson Douglas Garven (Nashville, TN).

LIFE
Game offers fun in the outdoors — or indoors BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
W
hether it’s quality time with the family, date night or visiting with friends, miniature golf is flexible enough to fit any framework. Players described how miniature golf can be as casual or as competitive as they want. They can play it outside or inside, depending on the course. Miniature golf is affordable and low-stress, while also serving as a good test of control and problemsolving, they explained. “The short game matters,” said Corey Whitlock, assistant manager at Adventure Golf & Raceway in Westminster. “It seems simple, but each hole is a different challenge. ... There’s nothing better than getting a hole in one.” Plus, it only takes about 45 minutes to an hour to play a course, which is the perfect amount of time for young children, as it’s not too long or too short, said Centennial resident Liz Kirkpatrick. Kirkpatrick and her three children were visiting Colorado Journey Miniature Golf at Cornerstone Park in Englewood, which they visit it multiple times a year. They appreciate its creative designs, with 9-year-old Jameson saying that he likes how most of the holes are easy. Keagan Patrick, who works at Spooky Mini Golf inside Colorado Mills mall in Lakewood, said he grew up playing with his family, and now plays rounds with friends. Like Whitlock, he appreciates how the basic concept is simple, but the holes are ultimately trickier than they look. Sometimes, the course is literally filled with surprises. Littleton residents James and Melesse Sanders, 12 and 14, described how they enjoyed the fire effects and water effects while playing at Adventure Golf for the first time with their grandma. It was a good mix of exciting and relaxing, said the children and their grandmother, Connie “Nana” Porter of Littleton.

Most importantly, though, it’s a good way to spend time together as a family, Littleton resident Jessica Berg said while playing with her loved ones at Colorado Journey. Playing the course Local miniature golf courses also have creative themes and obstacles, golfers said, whether they’re based in history, horror, fantasy or adventure. Berg commented how she appreciates the Colorado history theme at Colorado Journey. The two 18-hole courses feature Colorado landmarks at each hole, such as a standing structure of the Cripple Creek Mine that golfers can hit their balls through to potentially get a hole in one. Spooky Mini Golf, which is across the street
from the movie theater at Colorado Mills, has a very different vibe. The indoor course features glow-in-the-dark golf balls and a variety of scary decorations and animatronics, which Patrick said might be a little much for very young children. However, brave golfers will enjoy putting around ghosts, ghouls, dragons, giant spiders and other frights. “We have had a lot of people come in just to get pictures with it,” Patrick said of the decorations. He said Spooky Mini Golf’s ownership is opening a second location in FlatIron Crossing mall in Broomfield, which will be much larger and be SEE MINIGOLF, P15
Meet the new State Historian COMING ATTRACTIONS

or a lot of children, books about magical worlds and bigger than life adventures are the best way to spend their time. But when she was young, Dr. Nicki Gonzales immersed herself in the chronicles of history. And as the newly announced Colorado State Historian, that passion has clearly served her well. “History books are what got me hooked. I always tell my students, you don’t have to watch Netflix if you study American history,” she said. “I was interested in times like World War II, but I was always more interested in stories about places I lived and people I knew.” Gonzales, who is currently a professor of history and vice provost for diversity and inclusion at Regis University, begins her one-year term in her new role on Colorado Day, Saturday, Aug. 1. She’s taking over for historian and author Dr. Duane Vandenbusche.
According to provided information, Gonzales is the first Latino person to be the state’s historian (a position established in 1924). “Colorado’s State Historian has been part of a five-person council since 2018, when History Colorado established the State Historian’s Council to amplify different perspectives and to reinforce the collective foundation of history and storytelling,” that information explained. The council rotates its leadership position every year on Colorado Day. Gonzales’ specialty is Chicano history and Southwest social and political movements, as well as the experiences of Chicano Vietnam veterans. A key topic Gonzales wants to promote during her time as Colorado State Historian is young people getting interested in history, particularly in the state’s history. She credits her teachers as a crucial component in the development of her own historical passions and wants children to work intergenerationally with
family members to see the personal side of the field. She is also particularly interested in sharing the stories that directly affect the world we’re all living in currently. “I’ve been working on the histories of underrepresented people in the community and that’s something I’d like to focus on in the coming year,” she said. “I’m also working on an exhibition about the Sand Creek Massacre with tribespeople and History Colorado.” With the recent pushes toward more accurate historical records and studies, Gonzales said its now cool to study the past. And she wants to take all the current interests and use it to make a better future. “People love to read about the migrants who came west and the gold rush, but I’d like people to dive more into racial history in the state - Indigenous history, Latino hisSEE READER, P15

galaxy-themed. Along with go-karts and a maze, Adventure Golf has three 18-hole courses — Lost Continent, Buccaneer Bay and Adventure Cove. According to Whitlock, Lost Continent is the fan favorite, thanks in part to its island-themed fire and water effects. Meanwhile, Buccaneer Bay is probably the most challenging course of the three, he said, with a pirate theme to the décor and obstacles. Then, Adventure Cove is storybook-themed and has something for all ages, he said. Plus, there are about five other courses in Denver and the surrounding area that have unique themes and obstacles to explore as well, such as the pendulums and windmill at Putter’s Pride near Lakewood and Centennial’s scary Monster Mini Golf. Adjusting to the obstacles Last summer, when Colorado’s initial COVID-19 restrictions were rolling back, miniature golf was among the few night-out activities that were open. Considering that many courses are outdoors and groups could socialdistance between holes, many took advantage. Jeremy Kopischke, special facilities coordinator for South Suburban Parks and Recreation, which operates Colorado Journey, said the miniature golf course experienced an increase in non-resident use last year.

Whitlock said Adventure Golf had a different dynamic last year, simply because of the capacity restrictions. However, it also saw the range of customers it could have and now is starting to see with the capacity restrictions lifted. “People drove 30 or 40 minutes to get out of the house and play as a family,” Whitlock said of last summer. Now, Colorado Journey has been busier than ever this summer, with a steady stream of guests and bookings for large groups and birthday parties, Kopischke said. Whitlock said he and his colleagues at Adventure Golf are likewise thankful to be getting back to the norm, adding that it was very rewarding to see that the demand for miniature golf would always be there.

LGBTQ+ advocacy group protects Arvada United Methodist Church from harassment BY RYAN DUNN RDUNN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

tion, meaning the church accepts members of the LGBTQ+ community into its ranks, even hosting a Pride Month celebration in June. Members of the church said that AUMC’s stance on LGBTQ+ inclusivity was a key factor in their joining the congregation. “People need to know that there’s a safe place,” Tammy Box, who has been attending church at AUMC for 10 years, “that there are people that love them and live out the example of Christ. The religious community is not all hate or `love the sinner, hate the sin.’ That’s not the message. It’s `love everyone and love them where they are.’ We’re so much better together.” Ben Rowe, who has been a member of AUMC’s congregation since 2014, said that he has been a part of the reconciling congregation movement for years and wanted to find a church community that welcomed all. “To me it’s crucial,” Rowe said of LGBTQ+ inclusivity. “When we were looking for a church, we wanted to be sure to find a church that would welcome LGBTQIA people. It’s been wonderful. It’s been great to see gay and lesbian couples be a part of the service, whether in the choir, ushering, or reading scripture. That’s the interesting thing about it, once it’s no longer important, then you focus on who the people are.”
Members of the Westboro Baptist Church have long espoused their hatred of the LGBTQ+ community, rising to prominence in 1998 by protesting the funeral of Matthew Shepherd, a gay student at the University of Wyoming who was killed in a hate crime. WBC is recognized as one of the “most obnoxious and rabid hate groups” in the country by the Southern Poverty Law Center. The group stated that they came to Arvada to protest AUMC’s inclusion of LGBTQ+ people and warn the community that this inclusivity was triggering “the hand of God,” writing that “God sent the shooter to Arvada,” in a July 17 press release. WBC’s press release also stated that they would be picketing the Agape Life Church and the Shrine of St. Anne Catholic Church, both in Arvada. Eve said Parasol Patrol reached out to both churches and did not hear back from Agape and were asked not to attend WBC’s picket at St. Anne’s. “God is punishing this world for its refusal to obey,” said Karl Hockenbarger, a member of WBC’s picket. “This city, like many 100% of the other cities in this country, are adopting homosexuality as normal, as the dominant means of social intercourse (sic). One of your own being killed in that shooting is God’s hand saying, `Why aren’t you SEE PROTEST, P19

By Eve’s standard, Sunday’s Parasol Patrol assembly was a success, as over 150 people assembled with umbrellas to shield AUMC churchgoers from Westboro’s picket, which was made up of 12 people, many of which were descendents of WBC founder Fred Phelps. Ginny Dunkelberger, who has been going to church at AUMC for 10 years, said the Parasol Patrol’s buffer was effective. “You couldn’t even see the protesters,” said Dunkelberger. Eve added that Parasol Patrol are not counter protesters, as they do not engage with protesters whenever they attend pickets.

Members of the Arvada United Methodist Church congregation attended services and enjoyed an ice cream social in the Church’s courtyard on July 25, just as they might on any given Sunday. To many churchgoers, the only thing that may have appeared out of the ordinary was the influx of cars in the parking lot. The extra traffic can be attributed to the presence of the Parasol Patrol, an LGBTQ+ advocacy group whose mission is to shield members of the community and children from hateful protests. When the group became aware that the Westboro Baptist Church, longtime peddlers of homophobia and transphobia, had plans to picket AUMC, the group mobilized. “We’ve stood up to Westboro many times,” said Pasha Eve, co-founder of Parasol Patrol. “We use umbrellas to shield kids from seeing sign that they bring. The highest compliment we can get from a parent is when they say, `Our kids didn’t even know protesters were there at all.’ That means we’re doing our job.”

PROTEST

repenting?’” House District 27 Representative Brianna Titone attended Parasol Patrol’s gathering and condemned WBC’s stated motivation for picketing AUMC. “It’s a ridiculous argument that they’re just trying to capitalize on,” said Titone, “and trying to make people fearful that `if you accept LGBT people you’re going to have a shooting’ and that’s a really horrible sentiment to try to say to someone, to make people feel afraid that something completely unrelated is going to affect their community because of accepting a group of people. It’s laughable, it’s insulting.” Arvada City Councilmember Lauren Simpson echoed Titone’s sentiment, stating that the large number of attendees for the Parasol Patrol gathering show that Arvada is a welcoming community. Simpson wore a shirt commemorating fallen Arvada Police Officer Gordon Beesley emblazoned with the Olde Town water tower and the words “Look for the good in every day.” “It is so incredibly important that we stand up and show these people what this community is really about,” said Simpson. “We are about
love, we are about tolerance, we are about inclusivity here. The reason they’re here is what happened in Olde Town on June 21. I’m wearing this shirt to honor Gordon Beesley, who always looked for the good in people. Today, you guys are the good.” However, the WBC may have chosen to picket AUMC for more convenient reasons. Isaiah Phelps-Roper said that the group was in the area on vacation, and Jonah Phelps-Roper confirmed that WBC finds a church to protest every time they go on vacation. “We’re here simultaneously as a break, as a vacation,” said Isaiah. “But we have an obligation to warn our neighbors that their sins are taking them to Hell. So, we want to serve God in everything we do, so even when we go on a trip that’s for rest and relaxation, we make a point to make a stop in the area to preach the word of God.” “We do this every time,” said Jonah. “If we go on vacation, there is a picket.” ‘Doing something right’ For their part, members of AUMC’s community said that the fact that a group as hateful as the WBC would come to picket their LGBTQ+ inclusion means that they’re on the right track. “It means that we’re doing

something right,” said Dr. Amy Gearhart, AUMC’s lead pastor, “that we’re living in our witness and mission to be an inclusive congregation. We believe that it’s rooted in baptism, it’s rooted in the way we understand God’s grace for all people. “It’s great to have allies in the community,” Gearhart said of the Parasol Patrol, “that share our mission and our vision, and several of our congregation have been a part of their efforts.” Ginny Dunkelberger said the church community is enhanced by its LGBTQ+ members. “I think we’re better together,” said Dunkelberger. “It sounds like a cliché, but it’s not. We gain from diversity. We all learn from each other how to love better and be better people.”

Taking a look at Mount Evans’ new reservation system Rangers and many guests say new system for fee sights is working well BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The night before Lakewood’s Joyce and Steve Koenig visited Mount Evans with their daughter and her boyfriend, they went to recreation.gov and purchased a vehicle ticket. On July 22, the Koenigs and hundreds of others visited the Mount Evans Scenic Byway, stopping at Mount Goliath, Summit Lake and/ or the summit parking lot along the way. Many of the parked vehicles had various tags or reservation receipts displayed on their front dashboard or windshield — proof that they were OK to park at a given fee area. When the scenic byway reopened for vehicle traffic on June 4, the U.S. Forest Service and its partners instituted a timed-entry reservation system for those parking in any fee areas between 8 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. The road itself is free to drive on, although motorists are asked to stop at the welcome station first. More than 700 vehicles have opted for a drive-only experience thus far this summer. USFS spokeswoman K. Reid Armstrong said the new system, which is on a trial basis for the summer, has been working well thus far. It’s reduced parking issues and overcrowding at the trailheads, she said, and there’s been less resource damage throughout the area. It’s also alleviated a lot of moneyhandling at the welcome station, helping vehicles to get onto the scenic byway more quickly, she said. In fact, Armstrong said USFS saw more vehicle ticket sales in June 2021 than in June 2019 — 12,191 versus 10,783. However, she said the June 2021 numbers could include people buying for July dates in advance, as the site allows sales up to a month ahead of time. She said the USFS will have a better idea of overall traffic counts and usage at the end of the season, and it and other agencies will decide over the fall and winter whether to continue the reservation system next summer. As the Koenigs stood in the summit parking lot, Joyce said she was neutral about the U.S. Forest Service’s new reservation system. When she first heard about it, she thought it would be difficult; but, it was ultimately painless when the family bought the ticket the night before. She recalled when she and Steve visited Mount Evans two years ago, and the couple found the last spot available at the summit parking lot. “I can see why they’re doing it,” she said. However, Joyce added that she dislikes needing to make a reservation during a visit to public lands. If someone comes to visit her lastminute, it’s harder to take them to Mount Evans or Rocky Mountain National Park if she needs to make a reservation beforehand, she de-

scribed. Steve said he generally felt positive toward the new reservation system at Mount Evans, but he hoped it would get back to the point where it wasn’t necessary anymore. Ryan Moats of Highlands Ranch, who was also in the summit parking lot after hiking to the top with his church group, said he thought the online reservation system was easy and self-explanatory. He made his reservation about a week in advance, explaining that his group bought a three-day pass and would be using it all three days. Moats, who was visiting the peak for the first time, said: “It was good to know we’d have a (parking) spot.” One reviewer on the recreation. gov site wasn’t so happy with the new arrangement. A Brian A. left a one-star review on the site, stat-

ing “It’s JUST AS CROWDED AS EVER….but this time I had to pay. That’s a lousy deal!” Getting the word out According to Armstrong, the biggest challenge with the reservation system now is simply getting the word out. A lot of visitors, particularly people from out-of-state, are arriving at the welcome station without a reservation, simply because they don’t know about the new system. To that end, the USFS has set up wireless internet at the welcome station so that unprepared visitors can make a reservation. However, Armstrong emphasized that it’s a fallback system and not something visitors should rely on, especially because the internet isn’t highspeed.
TO MAKE A RESERVATION Go to recreation.gov Select Mount Evans and make your reservaton. Be forwarned: There is no cell reception up at the welcome station so download or print your reservation ahead of time. Also, those not using the fee areas do not need to pay for a reservation. This is exactly what happened when Chicago’s Prasanthi Konakandla arrived at the welcome station on July 22. The USFS staff member gave her instructions on where and how to make an online reservation, and SEE MT. EVANS, P21

Eugene Sheng and Yen Zhang from Chicago take photos on July 22 at Summit Lake below Mount Evans. The two made reservations online about a week beforehand, which PHOTO BY CORINNE WESTEMAN Zhang said was relatively easy.
MT. EVANS FROM PAGE 20
it was overall a fairly easy process once she got started, she said. Konakandla described two small issues, though. First, she didn’t know which type of ticket to buy. There’s a vehicle ticket for all recreation sites, one for Mount Goliath and the summit area, and then one for Summit Lake only. The second issue was that she had to register with the system, putting in her email address and other information, rather than simply purchasing it. Konakandla also mentioned that, while the process was relatively
easy for her, it might be difficult for those who aren’t as tech-savvy or don’t have smartphones. Meanwhile, Yen Zhang, who was also visiting from Chicago but traveling separately, said she made her reservation about a week in advance. For $17 total — $15 for the vehicle ticket plus a $2 reservation fee — she thought it was a fair price. “I always research ahead of time,” she said, adding that many national parks also require reservations. Zhang said it was her first time visiting Colorado, and she was really glad she stopped by Mount Evans. When she made her reservation, she made sure to sign up for a morning slot and an all-recreationsites ticket. “We’re not in a hurry,” she said.

Tobacco-tax boost generates millions Proposition EE was passed by Colorado voters last November BY JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN
A new nicotine tax and an increased tax on cigarettes and other tobacco products in Colorado generated more than $34 million in their first five months, according to a data analysis by The Colorado Sun. Proposition EE, which was passed by voters in November, went into effect in January, raising the taxes on a pack of cigarettes to $1.94 from 84 cents. The ballot measure will continue to increase nicotine, tobacco and cigarette taxes in Colorado through 2027, when they level out. By comparison, Colorado collected about $187 million in cigarette and tobacco taxes in the 2019-20 fiscal year. It appears Colorado won’t meet the $87.4 million that nonpartisan legislative analysts estimated Proposition EE would collect in its first six months. One reason may be that some consumers stocked up on cigarettes before the new taxes went
into effect. Colorado cigarette sales soared in December, according to data from the Colorado Department of Revenue. The state collected nearly $28 million in cigarette taxes under Amendment 35 that month, compared with November and in October, when it collected $12 million each month. “It’s possible that this increase in December 2020 revenue is causing the cigarette revenue in the first few months of 2021 to be lower than expected,” said Daniel Carr, a spokesman for the revenue department. Tax-collection data for June won’t be available until later in July. Proposition EE was pitched as a way to fund preschool slots in Colorado, but money from the ballot initiative won’t start going to that cause until the 2023-24 fiscal year. In the first three fiscal years, the revenue from the new and increased taxes will be split between the state’s K-12 education fund, rural schools and housing assistance. Health advocates see the ballot measure as a way to reduce tobacco and nicotine use, citing studies that show how higher prices can reduce consumption.

The next tax increase under Proposition EE will come in January, when taxes on the manufacturer’s list price for nicotine products rise to 35% from 30%. Before the ballot measure, Colorado had no tax on nicotine products, like vaping fuel and e-cigarettes. Proposition EE also enacts a so-called minimum-price provision mandating that a pack of cigarettes be sold for no less than $7 and a carton for no less than $70. The discount cigarette com-
tion that put Proposition EE on the November 2020 ballot. Altria and Liggett Vector Brands are competitors.
pany Liggett Vector Brands Inc. filed lawsuits in federal and state court challenging the ballot measure, claiming the minimum-price provision violates competitiveness laws. The legal actions are still pending. The Colorado Sun obtained emails showing that Gov. Jared Polis’ office was asked to meet several conditions insisted upon by Altria in exchange for the tobacco giant, which owns Marlboro, agreeing not to fight legisla-

Children Services (Adoption/Guardian/Other) Public Notice IN THE HAMILTON SUPERIOR COURT ROOM NO. 1 CAUSE NO. 29D01- 2107-AD-1021 STATE OF INDIANA SS: COUNTY OF HAMILTON IN THE MATTER OF THE ADOPTION OF INFANT MALE MCDOWELL NOTICE OF ADOPTION The unnamed putative father of the child born to Jasmine McDowell, on July 16, 2021, or the person who claims to be the father of the child born to Jasmine McDowell, on July 16, 2021, is notified that a petition for adoption of the child was filed in the office of the Clerk of the Hamilton Superior Court, Room No. 1, One Hamilton County Square, Noblesville, Indiana. If the unnamed putative father seeks to contest the adoption of the child, the unnamed putative father must file a motion to contest the adoption in accordance with IC 31-19-10-1 in the above named court within thirty (30) days after the date of service of this notice. This notice may be served by publication. If the unnamed putative father does not file a motion to contest the adoption within thirty (30) days after service of this notice, the above named court shall hear and determine the petition for adoption. The unnamed putative father's consent is irrevocably implied and the unnamed putative father loses the right to contest the adoption or the validity of the unnamed putative father's implied consent to the adoption. The unnamed putative father loses the right to establish paternity of the child, by affidavit or otherwise, in Indiana or any other jurisdiction. Nothing Jasmine McDowell or anyone else says to the unnamed putative father of the child relieves the unnamed putative father of his obligations under this notice. Under Indiana law, a putative father is a person who is named as or claims that he may be the father of a child born out of wedlock but who has not yet been legally proven to be the child's father. This notice complies with IC 31-19-4-4, but does not exhaustively set forth the unnamed putative father's legal obligations under the Indiana adoption statutes. A person being served with this notice should consult the Indiana statutes. Kathy Kreag Williams CLERK, HAMILTON SUPERIOR COURT ROOM NO. 1 Joel D.
