History abounds at Golden’s Autumn Fest

For everything there is a season, and autumn has become the season for immersive learning in downtown Golden.

On Oct. 2, the Golden History Museum & Park hosted its second annual Autumn Festival, as more than 2,000 attendees discovered an array of things to learn and do on both sides of Clear Creek.

In the history park, families experienced a taste of 19th-

Ralston Elementary kicks o spooky season

A great boo-mmunity event

For Ralston Elementary School families, Halloween started 30 days early.

The Genesee-area school hosted its annual fall festival Oct. 1, where youngsters donned their costumes, collected candy, played games, and enjoyed other activities.

Jessica Klingsporn, who helped organize this year’s event, anticipated 650-700 attendees throughout the afternoon. The festival is Ralston Elementary’s biggest fundraiser.

Last year’s silent auction raised $18,000 for the school, and Klingsporn was hoping to reach $20,000 this year. The money goes toward upgrading the school’s technology; maintaining fulltime arts, music, and physical education teachers; hiring paraprofessionals; and anything else the school might need, she explained.

On top of crucial fundraising, the fall festival is always a blast for the students and their families.

“Kids get their costumes early for the event,” she continued.

Parents Mary Ann and Jason Whetzal were operating the first-grade class’s trunk-or-treat station. The two used their family’s red Jeep, some greenery, inflatable dinosaurs and zookeeper-like outfits as part of the “Jurassic Park” theme.

Mary Ann explained how they’d seen a similar idea at another trunk-or-

Agricultural property near North Table Mountain rezoned for 33 homes

route traffic through an existing neighborhood to the north. However, after receiving feedback from neighbors, they instead are working with a neighboring development to the northeast — Bonvue Ranch — to create a route between 58th Avenue and the property.

The Jefferson Board of County Commissioners has approved rezoning a 30-acre parcel in unincorporated Golden to allow up to 33 single-family homes.

The property at 18002 West 53rd Lane, which is directly north of North Table Mountain, was rezoned from agricultural to planned development. County staff recommended approval, saying it’s compatible with nearby land use.

The next step for the project, called Vista at North Table Mountain, will be the platting process.

During the Sept. 27 commissioners meeting, neighbors expressed mixed feelings about the project. Some were in favor, saying the development will include evacuation routes for nearby residents and emergency access points for first responders.

However, some neighbors were opposed, describing concerns about the dangers of landslides or rockfalls onto the property and impacts to wildlife.

Jeffco planner Fritz Clauson described how there are single-family developments to the north and west of the property and a mix of singlefamily and agricultural properties to the east.

The property’s northwest section would allow up to 30 single-family homes with a minimum lot size of 7,500 square feet. Meanwhile, the southeast section would allow up to three single-family homes with a minimum lot size of 1 acre.

In this way, Clauson explained, the property would act as a transition between the higher-density areas to the north and west and the lowerdensity areas to the east.

Clauson noted that the very southern edge of the property is in a geohazard area for potential landslides. Residences cannot be in this geohazard area, but there’s no required setback between the geohazard area

boundary and a residence.

As far as traffic goes, Clauson said it’d be incorporated into the existing

roadway network.

The developers and property owner described the initial idea to

Additionally, developers for Bonvue Ranch and Vista at North Table Mountain want a roundabout along 58th Avenue for traffic calming and improved access.

Along with a new park, new trails nearby, and an improved water line, Vista at North Table Mountain also includes an emergency fire access road. This will serve as both an evacuation route for residents and an access point for first responders.

With the rezoning approved, Clauson said the next step will be the preliminary and final plat process, which will subdivide the property. After that, the applicants must apply for all required permits before construction can begin.

The platting process requires a slope stability analysis, staff confirmed.

Several neighbors who spoke listed credentials as engineers and geologists, and expressed concerns about the site. Jeff Schroeder said his homeowners association didn’t oppose the project but felt the density should be lessened.

Neighbor Denise Bohon also asked that 15 acres remain undeveloped to maintain wildlife access between North Table Mountain and lands to the east and north. She believed the project would have irreversible impacts on the park’s wildlife, saying North Table Mountain is almost surrounded by development now.

“This is our last chance to maintain this habitat connectivity for wildlife,” she said.

Several neighbors expressed their support for Vista at North Table Mountain, describing how landowner Charlie Williams has wanted to develop the site for decades. He was simply waiting for the right way to do it, Williams and others described.

They believed the proposed density matched the surrounding areas, and felt 33 homes would be a good use of the property.

Treasure Trunk closes its hatch

The Treasure Trunk Community

Thrift Store has been a local donation center and source for thrifted finds in Wheat Ridge for four decades. But as of Oct. 16, it will be a source of cheap paintings, books and used kitchenware no more.

“When we started Treasure Trunk 40 years ago, it was intended to be a profit center, to make profit to support our other programs,” Katherine Lawson, chief development officer at Family Tree, said.

Family Tree, which owns the store, is a non-profit services provider working against child abuse, domestic violence and homelessness.

According to Lawson, the Trea-

Treasure Trunk, owned by non-profit Family Tree, is closing its doors on for Oct. 16.

sure Trunk had stopped being profitable, and instead was taking funding away from other programs to survive.

“We just had to make the decision

COURTESY OF FAMILY TREE

that we can still meet client needs and not carry Treasure Trunk forward,” she said.

The idea of it being a thrift store was because it also handled all

donations to Family Tree, Lawson elaborated. Donations of used items would support the store, and new items would go on to support clients that Family Tree was helping.

Now that the store is closing, Lawson said the organization is encouraging people to donate used items to places like the Action Center and other local thrift stores.

Family Tree is still accepting new items and has an active needs list on its website.

“We’re really grateful to the community for supporting Treasure Trunk with their donations and by shopping…it’s all about supporting our clients who are on a journey to safety, stability and healing,” Lawson said.

The last day the Treasure Trunk is open is Oct. 15.

How to Make Sure That the House You Buy Will Not Be a ‘Money Pit’

When you go under contract to buy a home, the contract will have a deadline for inspection objection, inspection termination and inspection resolution. Every homebuyer is well advised to hire a home inspector and make use of the opportunity to ensure that the home you end up buying is in good condition.

During the recent sellers’ market it was common for buyers to make their offer more attractive by waiving or limiting their rights to object or terminate based on the condition of the home. Even then, however, the smart buyer hired a professional home inspector so they’d know what they’re getting into.

Home inspectors are not licensed in Colorado, but they are typically certified by one of two professional associations. Your real estate agent can recommend ones that he or she knows are good based on the experience of previous clients.

The home inspector knows enough about every aspect of a home to provide a good overview, including identifying specific defects. In some areas, however, he or she will encourage you to order a secondary inspection by someone with more in-depth expertise in the area of concern. Although a certified inspector can diagnose most electrical or plumbing problems, in some cases he might rec-

ommend a more detailed inspection by a licensed electrician or plumber. That also helps to produce an estimate for inclusion in the inspection objection notice to the seller.

Most inspectors can recognize a structural issue but will typically urge you to have the matter evaluated by a structural engineer. This can cost a few hundred dollars but, like the general inspection itself, could allow you to demand (and hopefully get) the seller to pay for a repair instead of paying for it yourself later on.

Two routine inspections that you should consider and which your general inspector can often perform himself for an additional fee, are the sewer scope and radon test.

A sewer scope consists of running a camera from a cleanout within the house to the main sewer line in the street or alley. Until the late 1900s, most home sewer lines were made of clay pipes that are susceptible to root intrusion and collapse. A sewer scope will cost you between $100 and $150, but is well worth it. If it uncovers a collapse, the repair, if excavation is required, could cost $10,000 or more. You want the seller to pay for that repair, not yourself.

A radon test also costs $100 or so and

consists of installing a computerized device in the lowest habitable area of the house — a basement, if there is one, but only if it’s habitable, whether finished or not. This device samples the air every hour for 48 hours and the resulting measurement is an average of those 48 readings. If the result is in excess of the EPA action level of 4 picocuries per liter of air (4 pCi/L), you should demand that the seller pay for radon mitigation. Mitigation starts at about $1,000 for a single family home, but can be considerably higher if it has a partial basement with an earthen crawl space. Again, the $100 or

so that you spend on the radon test can save you much more if you’re able to get mitigation paid for by the seller.

A final thought: The report produced by your inspector will include every little thing he or she found wrong with the house, because the inspector doesn’t want you to come back later and say he missed something, however insignificant. Typically, your inspector will highlight the serious issues which you should consider for your inspection objection. Even then, it may be wise strategically to omit the minor items that you can fix (or ignore) yourself.

How the Inspection Objection Process Works

mentioned above, there are three deadlines in the Contract to Buy & Sell:

Objection

Inspection Termination

Inspection Resolution

Typically the objection and termination deadlines are within a week or 10 days of the date on which you go under contract. Since inspection is the most common reason that a contract falls, both seller and buyer want this date as soon as possible. The buyer can submit an objection or can terminate. If he submits an objection, he

can’t then submit a termination. However, if an Inspection Resolution is not signed by both parties before the resolution deadline (typically 2-3 days later), then the contract terminates automatically.

The Inspection Objection and Inspection Terminations documents are merely notices to the seller, so they are signed only by the buyer. Only the Inspection Resolution document matters, and it is signed by both parties, making it an amendment to the contract, which, by the way, must be provided to the lender.

You Can Help Turn Pumpkins Into Habitat Houses!

Golden Real Estate is happy once again to support the Habitat for Humanity pumpkin patches in Lakewood and Arvada. The Lakewood patch is at Garrison Street & Alameda Avenue, on the grounds of Mile Hi Church. The Arvada patch is on the grounds of Trinity Presbyterian Church at 78th Avenue & Wadsworth Blvd.

Both pumpkin patches are operated each year by Jeffco Interfaith Partners, a coalition of a dozen local faith groups. The profits from these two volunteer-manned patches have funded over 20 Habitat for

Humanity homes in the metro area over the past 2+ decades. The pumpkins are grown on a Navajo reservation in the Four Corners area, so the sales also benefit that community, which gets 60% of the proceeds. Habitat gets the other 40%. Yes, the pumpkins sold at our two patches may be more expensive than at your local supermarket, but you have the satisfaction of making a difference with every purchase, and the 40% of your purchase which goes to Habitat is tax deductible. Our thanks go to the two churches for providing great locations for this fundraiser.

Golden seeks community input on racial equity plan

Plan outlines four goals,

When it comes to improving racial equity, diversity and inclusion in Golden, there are tangible steps the whole community should take.

Public documents and other information should be available to those who don’t speak English or have different abilities. City boards and commissions should have a more inclusive recruiting process to ensure diversity among their members. The city should host training about Golden’s history, structural racism and implicit bias.

These are only a few suggestions that consultant firm MIG outlined in a Sept. 29 meeting with Golden city staff and community members. Now, the community has a chance to provide feedback on how to achieve these ideas.

Over the past year, consultants for the city have been drafting a Racial Equity, Diversity & Inclusion Action Plan. It outlines several goals and strategies that Golden can implement over the next several years.

Officials have asked for community members to comment on this draft REDI Action Plan before it’s finalized in November. It’s available on the

city’s website in English and Spanish.

Carly Lorentz, assistant city manager, said the online link to comment on the document will be open until Oct. 10.

After that, city staff and a subcommittee of City Councilors JJ Trout and Rob Reed will provide additional feedback before the plan’s presented to City Council on Nov. 1.

Council will determine the timeline for implementation in the coming months, but Lorentz said staff plans to request some items related to the REDI Action Plan in the 2023 budget.

Building the action plan

In June 2021, the city approved a $100,000 contract with MIG, with work lasting through this November.

Over the last year, MIG consultants met with stakeholders around the community, hosted four focus groups with residents and young people, and conducted a survey among community members.

Based on all that input, MIG outlined four goals for the city’s REDI Action Plan. They are:

Create a culture of inclusion and belonging throughout the community of Golden; Increase access to services and resources for diverse community members; Foster an organizational culture and environment within the City of Golden that’s committed to racial equity, diversity and inclusion; and Expand economic opportunities for diverse businesses.

The firm also outlined dozens of strategies toward these goals, along

with a general implementation plan.

Kate Welty, MIG’s director of management & policy services, recommended the city create a REDI leadership role. This could be an existing staff position, or Golden could create a new job. Either way, the person in this role should have appropriate REDI training and report directly to the city manager.

Additionally, the city should also have an REDI implementation team comprised of city officials and community members. Welty said the city as an organization and the community should have a shared understanding and growth.

“Don’t keep those groups in silos,” she continued.

Finally, Welty and her colleagues recommended the City of Golden conduct a workplace environmental assessment, incorporate the REDI Action Plan into the city’s strategic action plan, and create an implementation plan with clear metrics for success.

“Implementation is hard,” Welty said. “There’s this notion that we get done with a beautiful product, and by virtue of its existence, everything changes.”

She emphasized how the action plan should have steps for implementation built into it, so that “the thing that you dreamed of is (built into) the product.”

Incorporating community feedback

Of those community members who attended the meeting, many offered

up suggestions on how to apply these goals to the broader community.

Kathy Smith hoped to see more city documents translated into Spanish and a more inclusive participation system at city meetings.

She said Golden should allow people to submit online public comment, as many people can’t attend evening meetings in-person but want to submit verbal comments. The city could also offer interpreters, adding, “We’re not really offering those things.”

Kim Mangle also suggested that those outside the city organization, such as nonprofits, could also implement the training on Golden’s history, structural racism and implicit bias.

When describing how other entities have anonymized their hiring process, City Councilor Don Cameron wondered whether Golden could use that not only for staff members but also city boards and commissions.

Saoirse Charis-Graves, a former city councilor, liked MIG’s “brave space conversation guidelines,” and wanted to use those in her daily life. She also asked how residents can participate in this process as well.

Welty said Golden community members should continue discussing REDI, collaborating, and asking others to read through and comment on the draft action plan.

The draft plan, available in both English and Spanish, and the link to make comments on the plan are all available at guidinggolden.com/striving-for-racial-equity. The deadline for comment on the draft plan is Oct. 10.

several suggestions to implement

century living with the one-room schoolhouse, the blacksmith shop, the heritage gardens and more. By the museum building, children ran around the fire trucks and participated in arts and crafts.

Nathan Richie, director of the Golden History Museum & Park, said the museum started the event last year because it wanted to host a big, free, family-oriented event. He thanked the dozens of nonprofits, cultural partners and volunteers who made the event possible.

As her 3-year-old son was feeding the history park’s chickens, Heather Ashour said she appreciated how spread out all the activities were. It made for a nice walk, and it was easier to navigate without a crowd of people congested in one place, she described.

She said her two youngsters were having lots of fun, describing how it was difficult to pull them away from the fire trucks and the manual washing station.

“I like that it’s free … and they have activities for all ages,” she continued.

From the park, visitors could hear the distant beat of drums, and hundreds gathered in the museum parking lot to experience the music and dancing of various American Indian tribes.

Accompanied by the Westminster-based intertribal drum group Cozad Jrs, Broomfield’s Phillip Gover, his family and dancers shared their stories and dances

with the attendees. The dancers invited attendees to join them for their social dances.

Gover said he and his friends have performed at other events, and always “dance for those who can’t dance.” He said it’s important for intertribal dancers to tell their own stories, so people can understand their tribes’ cultures and histories.

He thought the Autumn Fest crowd had good energy, saying attendees were respectful and genuine.

Denver’s Steve LaPointe, who served as the group’s emcee, said:

“It’s been a joy. Golden folk are great.”

While eating their lunch from the crepe food truck outside the museum, Rosie Davenport and Annette Konoske-Graf described how they stumbled onto the event while hanging out in Golden. They went through all the activities and stations, collecting all the stamps to earn them temporary tattoos. The two, who are in their 30s, joked how they were probably the oldest ones to do so.

“The kids are loving it,” Konoske-Graf said, “but so are the adults.”

treat, and put the station together with help from other parents.

It was the Whetzals’ first time at fall fest, with Mary Ann saying, “It’s really cool to see the community rallying around the school.”

Over at the popcorn station, parents Devin and Alexis Statham kept the kernels popping as more and more youngsters stopped by. It was the Stathams’ second year at the event, with the two describing how they volunteered because it’s always fun.

Devin said fellow parents always turn out to help put the event together, because everyone appreciates all the work the staff puts in throughout the year.

For daughter Hadley, 4, who was dressed as Sky from “Paw Patrol,” the event had a different allure. She really enjoyed the candy and playing on the inflatable obstacle courses.

Other children shared their excitement for candy and other goodies. Many were clearly enjoying seeing their friends on a Saturday and showing off their Halloween costumes a month early.

Hunter Rupp, a sixth-grader from The Manning School, was sporting an inflatable balloon-animal costume as he collected candy at the trunk-or-treat stations. Hunter’s younger sister attends Ralston Elementary, and it was the family’s first experience at fall fest.

Parents Dan and Sara Rupp explained how the family moved here from New Jersey three months ago. So, for them, the fall fest was “a great way to get involved” and get to know other families, Sara explained.

“It’s a great community event,” she said.

Unsealed a davit provides account of fatal shooting

Domestic dispute to blame

An affidavit filed by Arvada Police Detective Julie Glynn regarding the events of Sept. 11 that led to Officer Dillon Vakoff’s murder was unsealed on Sept. 26, shedding light on the events led to Vakoff’s death and the gunshot injuries of Mercedes Lopez and suspect Sonny Almanza, who is in custody.

The affidavit describes a contentious custody dispute that led to a fight which escalated into exchanges of gunfire.

According to the affidavit, at about 1:45 a.m., Officers D. Garibay and Dillon Vakoff were dispatched to 6753 West 51st Avenue in Arvada on a report of a disturbance over the custody of two children.

Destiny Medlock — Sonny Almanza’s sister — contacted APD for assistance because the mother of the children, Lexis “Lexie” Lopez was on her way to the location to take the children back and Medlock suspected that Lopez was intoxicated.

Officers Vakoff and Garibay arrived on scene and contacted Lopez, who was explaining what was going on to the officers when another vehicle arrived.

After that vehicle arrived, a fight broke out in the apartment’s parking lot. During the fight, Sonny

Almanza retrieved a rifle and came out to the parking lot. Almanza fired a round from the rifle which struck Mercedes Lopez — Lexie Lopez’s sister — in the leg. During the gunfire, Vakoff was fatally shot, according to the arrest affiddavit.

Almanza was also injured and transported to Denver Health Medical Center, while Mercedes Lopez was transported to St. Anthony Hospital.

According to Glynn, Officer Garibay’s body camera footage shows that prior to the physical fight, Lexie Lopez asked officers to ask Medlock about guns in her possession and said “they” pulled an AR-15 on her mother.

After the shooting, Garibay located Almanza on the ground with gunshot wounds.

Later on, at Denver Health Medical Center, Almanza was

interviewed by two Arvada police detectives after being advised of his Miranda Rights.

Almanza said he lives at 6753 West 51st Ave. and recently separated from Lexie Lopez, with whom he has two children. Lopez and Almanza do not have a court issued custody agreement, but exchange custody mutually. On the evening of Sept. 10, Lopez had the children with her.

Earlier in the morning hours of Sept. 11, Almanza stated that he was in downtown Denver with Medlock and her husband Jacob Marrujo, where Almanza consumed two shots of alcohol. While out, he learned that Lexie Lopez was not with their children and reportedly left them in the care of another family member.

Almanza, Medlock and Marrujo then drove to Lopez’s mother’s

house in Thornton, where Almanza reportedly found his children in the care of juveniles related to Lopez. Almanza retrieved the children and brought them to 6753 W. 51st Ave. with Medlock driving.

Almanza reported that he received “threatening messages” from Lopez indicating that she and her family members were on the way to Arvada with the intent of retrieving the children and beginning an altercation with Almanza.

Before they arrived, Medlock called Jeffcom Dispatch to request officers to assist. Before Medlock was contacted by responding officers, Marrujo received a security notification indicating the door to his residence — also located at 6753 W. 51st Ave., in the unit next to Almanza’s — had been opened.

As Medlock approached the apartment, Almanza said he observed several vehicles belonging to Lopez’s family and associates parked on the street near 6753 W. 51st Ave., as well as Lopez’s brother Jerry and sister Mercedes. The Lopez’s approached Medlock’s vehicle as it came to a stop in the street.

Almanza stated that Marrujo was attacked by the Lopez family after he exited the vehicle, at which point Almanza allegedly tried to intervene. Almanza told detectives he had reason to believe Lopez’s family were armed.

Black STEM professionals discuss the ‘vital’ importance of representation

For more than three decades, the Colorado Association of Black Professional Engineers and Scientists (CABPES) has been working to increase representation in STEM fields.

On Saturday, Sept. 24, the organization joined a long line of booths along Denver’s City Park Esplanade for the annual Energy Day Festival. The yearly festival provides a chance for different companies and organizations to highlight the benefits of a career in STEM, which stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

“We try to break down that stigma that a scientist only has blonde hair and blue eyes,” Earl White said of CABPES. “A scientist can look like you, a scientist can look like me.” White, a Black man, is a board member for CABPES in addition to working as a math tutor, advisor and volunteer with the organization.

The history of CABPES dates back to the late 1970s. Today, there are 120 students registered with the organization, which caters to students in grades 5-12. The nonprofit works to encourage Black students and students from other marginalized backgrounds to pursue an interest in the STEM field.

According to 2019 data collected by the National Science Board (NSB), Black or African American workers make up 12% of the U.S. working

population but represent just 9% of STEM workers. White people, on the other hand, are overrepresented in the STEM field; White people make up 61% of the American workforce but they make up 65% of those working in STEM.

For Earl White, that data show the importance of organizations like CABPES. White said the first step to encouraging Black youth to take an interest in STEM is representation.

“Students of color are actually more prone to go into harder disciplines or … disciplines that they may not have had exposure to if they see someone who looks like them, right?” White said.

“It’s actually vital for us to all come together to the table and figure out how we can expose our children to different areas that they may not even have thought were possible,” White continued.

CABPES offers many programs like SAT/ACT college prep and math tutoring and participates in the national Future City Competition. This competition challenges student members to design an energy-efficient city that can solve sustainability issues.

White said the nonprofit also provides a book club that includes fiction and nonfiction books that center Black characters, yet another example of CABPES’s focus on representation.

One of White’s students is 16-year-old Rahil Shah. Shah said he discovered CABPES at a STEM event at Grandview High School. He has been with the program for five years and said he was hooked ever since White taught him aerospace science.

“Just from a younger age I was watching TV and I saw really cool things, like on PBS … with rockets, engines ... And I got more interested,” he said.

White attended Fisk University, a historically black university in Nashville, Tennessee, where he received his B.A. in Chemistry. He later worked at Lockheed Martin as an environmental chemist for six years. White said that he is currently working toward another major in geology and plans to earn a doctorate in planetary science in the future.

“Never let anything stop you, whatever you would love to do it’s out there. If you need to find

representation, representation is out there no matter how hard it seems,” White said. “Just being able to find mentors and being able to have a safe space to talk with them is very important. Never be afraid to ask for help because asking for help will get to where you want to go.”

How do you stop foster kids from running away?

the gaps in mental health services

Nate Hailpern was always running toward his mother, bolting from every foster home or residential treatment center he lived in as a kid in the hopes of calling her and going home.

“I ran from everywhere,” said Hailpern, who now has three of his own children and works to help families keep their kids out of the child welfare system.

Tamisha Macklin entered foster care at age 6 and by the time she was a teenager, was living on the streets after running away from her grandma and multiple foster homes, including one where she felt like a maid and had to scrub the floor on her hands and knees.

“I just really struggled with belonging anywhere,” she said. “I always felt like a burden.”

The two spoke Wednesday at the first meeting of a new task force created by the state legislature to figure out how to keep children from running away from foster care placements. The panel — which includes former foster kids, foster parents, social workers, a police officer and county child welfare officials — will meet for two years to come up with solutions.

The task force comes after investigations by the Office of Colorado’s Child Protection Ombudsman

into residential treatment centers, including El Pueblo Boys & Girls Ranch, which was shut down by the state in 2017. Last year, a joint Colorado Sun/9News investigation found that kids are running away from the centers every day and that two boys who ran away from different facilities were struck by cars and killed.

The state child welfare system does not keep track of how many kids and teens in the child welfare system are missing on a daily basis. But in the last year, 35 young people left foster care by running away, according to the Colorado Department of Human Services data. That compares to 208 who emancipated and 745 who were adopted.

“As we sit here today, there are many youth who are on the run and have not been located,” said Stephanie Villafuerte, the state’s child protection ombudsman.

“When youth run, they are in dan-

“There are so many things that we can address here,” she said.

Brandon Miller, executive director of Southern Peaks Regional Treatment Center in Cañon City, told the Timothy Montoya Task Force that staff at youth facilities have to follow strict guidelines that prevent them from physically restraining kids, even to stop them from running away.

ger. They face dangers on the street, including sex trafficking, violence.

We also know that the number of runaway records far exceeds our law enforcement community’s ability to not only find these children, seek them out, but also to return them. We learned obviously, and sadly, tragically, that when youth run, they not only can get hurt, but they die.”

The task force is named for Timmy Montoya-Kloepfel, who was 12 when he ran away from Tennyson Center for Children in Denver in June 2020 and died after he was hit by a Chevy Tahoe. His mother, Elizabeth Montoya, gave an emotional account of her son’s mental health struggles and the agony of not knowing for 26 hours where he had gone after running away from the residential center.

He was lying in a hospital bed in a coma. He died 12 hours after Montoya reached the hospital.

She asked the panel to look into improving communication among youth residential centers, law enforcement and hospitals. She said she also has concerns about her son’s dosage of medication, which was increased just before he went into the Tennyson Center, and whether the staff caring for him was aware of his history of running away. And Montoya spoke of

Almanza reportedly fired a shot into the air, at which time Mercedes Lopez ran towards him. When she was about 10 feet from Almanza, he fired a single shot at her, at which point she began screaming and fell to the ground.

Almanza continued walking towards the fight, unaware that officers were on the scene. As he approached,

“At its basic level, people who are in crisis do one of three things — fight, flee or freeze,” he said. “When these kids run they are in crisis.”

Timmy and Andrew Potter, 15, were killed in separate incidents with similar details — both were struck by cars late at night after running away from different residential treatment centers, two years apart.

Their deaths and the escalating runaway problem at some residential child care facilities sparked calls for investigation and allegations from residential centers that they were suffering from years of inadequate state funding. Some called for review of state regulations that prohibit centers from locking their doors or using physical force to prevent children from running away.

Lawmakers approved $99,500 for the task force’s operations. The twoyear project will include research assistance from the Colorado Evaluation and Action Lab at the University of Denver. The panel must submit reports to the legislature next year and in October 2024.

Shared electric scooters continue spread in Denver suburbs

Safety concerns mount

In the beginning, the scooters arrived without permission. Now, the electric devices are continuing to spread to more metro-area cities, touted as a way to reduce traffic but also feared by some pedestrians who see them zooming down sidewalks.

“Electric scooters and bikes should only be ridden where bicycles are allowed to ride and should not be ridden on sidewalks unless actively parking, starting or ending a trip,” said Vanessa Lacayo, a spokesperson for Denver’s transportation department.

But officials are still trying to convince scooter users to stay off the sidewalk in Denver, a city where riding scooters irresponsibly is a common sight in the downtown area.

Starting this fall, Denver will test some ideas in the downtown area — where some of the highest ridership in the city takes place — to try to improve safety, Lacayo said.

The city recently finalized a stencil to place on some sidewalks to remind riders to keep the space clear for pedestrians, and officials also have used tech-based strategies to restrict or slow riders down in some busy areas, Lacayo said.

The scooters can mean more than a fun trip for riders and a nuisance

for pedestrians — they’re often involved in injuries.

In crowded Denver, the scooters people often see are the shared ones, which are accessible via cell phone applications and run slower than most car traffic. Lyft scooters, for example, go up to 15 mph, according to the company’s website.

The shared scooters recently spread to more suburban cities. Here’s a look at where they’re allowed, where they aren’t and what the rules are.

Right path

Denver’s ordinances, or city laws, say it’s unlawful to ride an electric scooter on a sidewalk at more than 6 mph.

Riding an electric scooter on

sidewalks is unlawful except when preparing to park, or when the rider has just mounted and has not yet crossed a street or alley, or where the sidewalk is part of a designated bicycle route, Denver’s city law says.

In Denver, the scooter system has been automatically slowing down and stopping scooters on the 16th Street Mall and slowing them down near Coors Field during Rockies games when many pedestrians are around, Lacayo said.

An online map of scooter use in Denver, referred to by Lacayo, shows the rides are most concentrated in the downtown, central and northwest Denver areas — and some highly trafficked paths stretch close to Lakewood and Wheat Ridge.

Riders in Denver have traveled roughly 11 million miles, according to the city, which estimates the ridership removed millions of driving trips from Denver’s busiest streets and neighborhoods since 2018.

No program in Lakewood Shared scooters first appeared on a large scale in the City of Denver in May 2018 without authorization from the city’s Department of Transportation and Infrastructure to operate, according to Lacayo.

Shortly after, the department ordered scooter operators to suspend their operations while the city developed a permitting process. Denver’s permit program launched in July 2018 to guide how the scooters can be used in the city, Lacayo said.

Nearby, shared scooters are only permitted in some Denver suburbs, but that doesn’t stop them from sometimes ending up where they shouldn’t be.

“Electric scooters and bikes end up in Sheridan mostly by the bus stops or in River Point,” an outdoor mall, Sheridan spokesperson Amy Woodward said.

Sheridan does not have a shared scooter program and does not have

any ordinances or regulations surrounding the use of them, Woodward said.

Before Lakewood had enacted any regulations, some shared scooters were deployed in Lakewood in 2018, according to that city.

“We have a pretty good relationship with most companies, and we call to have devices removed when we notice them in Lakewood,” said Stacie Oulton, Lakewood spokesperson.

No licensed scooter companies currently operate in Lakewood, so “personal scooters are mostly what you see in Lakewood,” Oulton said.

Lakewood has required companies to get a license and comply with regulations since 2019, but no company so far has decided to apply for a license, according to Oulton.

“In Lakewood, bicycles are allowed on sidewalks and paths, so scooters are also allowed (in those places),” Oulton said. “They can also ride in bike lanes or streets — just like a bike. In locations we don’t want scooters or bikes, we would install signs with the restriction.”

Scooters leave Littleton, Aurora

In the south metro area, Littleton started a partnership with Bird, another shared scooter company — but the “pilot,” or test, program recently ended.

“The one-year Bird Pilot Program began in August 2021 to explore whether dockless e-scooters could provide ‘micromobility’ — an additional mode of travel for Littleton residents to replace short vehicle trips, especially in the downtown (Littleton) neighborhood,” a statement from the city said.

Bird’s local fleet manager, tasked with collecting, charging and servicing the scooters, appears to have stopped doing so in mid-June, leaving many scooters with dead batteries and “therefore impossible to locate remotely,” the statement said.

Littleton city officials have asked for the public’s help tracking down missing scooters. Those who find a scooter should email traffic@littletongov.org with the location, the statement said.

The pilot program was scheduled to end Aug. 18, but Bird decided to end the program in late July, the statement said.

“Arapahoe County will be conducting a county-wide transit and micromobility study in the near future, with Littleton as a partner agency,” the statement added. “Future micromobility programs in Littleton will wait until the study is complete.”

Bird also shut down its scooter operations in Aurora effective Aug. 11, according to Aurora’s website.

No shared mobility devices are currently available in Aurora, but licenses remain available for new companies to apply, Aurora’s website adds.

Arvada ties program near RTD line

Northwest of Denver, the City of Arvada approved a pilot program for electric scooters in 2021 and has a contract with Bird for electric scooters to be used within a onemile radius of the RTD G rail line. Arvada’s program with Bird began in January.

“The e-scooters are set to slow down once they get to the boundary line until they fully stop and are no longer operable,” said Katie Patter son, an Arvada spokesperson. “The e-scooters begin chirping and the rider’s phone will receive a notifica tion that they are outside the operat ing area and redirect them back to where they are usable.”

Before moving forward with the program, the city underwent a research process with the Arvada Transportation Advisory Commit tee in 2019, followed by community meetings in 2020 and 2021, Patterson said.

Micromobility devices are not allowed on narrow sidewalks and riders should use the devices in the street and on designated bike lanes, similar to personal bicycles, accord

ing to Patterson.

The devices are allowed on City of Arvada trails, and users are respon sible for following trail rules includ ing giving audible signals when passing slower traffic, Patterson added.

In one notable recent scooter inci dent, a 10-year-old boy was killed in a traffic accident Sept. 17 on Cande las Parkway. The boy — an Arvada resident — was riding an electric scooter when he was struck by a Toy ota Prius. The driver of the Toyota, identified only as a “male driver,” was cooperating with the investiga tion, according to the Arvada Police Department. The driver stayed on the scene as officers responded.

The scooter the boy was riding was store bought and privately owned, not a ride-sharing vehicle.

To the city’s knowledge, no in juries or deaths related to shared electric scooters have occurred in Arvada since the scooters began cir culating in Arvada, Patterson said.

Thornton adds scooters

North of Denver, a one-year pilot program for shared scooters began in Thornton on July 1.

“Electric scooters are to be ridden on streets with a posted speed limit of 35 mph or less, in bike lanes, trails and shared use paths,” said Kent Moorman, a transportation engineer for the City of Thornton.

The maximum speed under Colo rado’s Model Traffic Code, incorpo rated into the Thornton City Code, for this class of vehicle is 20 mph, ac cording to Moorman.

The scooters will bring some amount of tax revenue to Thornton,

but numbers are unclear so far.

“Scooter companies are required to have a Thornton general business and sales tax license.We collect sales tax only,” Moorman said. “As this program just started July 1, we do not yet have revenue numbers for the city from electric scooters.”

Under Arvada’s mobility pro gram, companies “must pay a yearly permit renewal fee of $5,000 based on Arvada staff time dedicated to management, oversight, commu nications, enforcement, and educa tion (regarding) the program,” an Arvada regulations document says.

Denver apparently doesn’t collect revenue from its scooter program.

Lacayo, with the Denver transpor tation department, said no scooter companies paid Denver any type of license fee or other kind of payment, and thatDenver does not receive any sales tax revenue or other tax revenue related to the scooters.

Brighton OKs scooters

Farther northeast, Brighton city councilmembers decided in April that residents will get access to Bird scooters. A group of Brighton city officials and residents officially wel comed Bird scooters as legal trans portation June 30 during a news conference at city hall.

The city has established nine no-rides zones in the city along five streets: Baseline Road, Bridge Street, Bromley Lane, Sable Boulevard and South 50th Avenue. The scooters will not operate on several sections of those streets.

Others without scooters

Commerce City does not have

agreements for any electric scooter companies to operate within the city’s boundaries, according to city spokesperson Travis Huntington.

Nearby, Westminster also doesn’t allow for shared electric scooters, according to city spokesperson Andy Le.

The Jefferson County suburb of Wheat Ridge does not have a scooter program, said Amanda Harrison, spokesperson for that city.

“We’d be interested in learning more if a vendor reached out, but that hasn’t happened yet,” Harrison said.

Down south in Arapahoe County, Englewood did not respond for com ment by press time about whether it has policies regarding shared electric scooters.

Tracking Golden’s real and surreal ghost stories

Let’s go ghost-hunting this weekend! Don’t forget to bring your cell phone so you can film it and post it on the internet. It will be a sensation!

Ok, well probably not that sensational. Have you seen all those videos of “professional” ghost hunters out there in action? The ones that last anywhere from a half hour to an hour and mostly consist of an elaborate setup of a bunch of equipment that no one explains and results in a lot of annoying static sounds peppered with an occasional bit of noise that, if you stretch your imagination to the max, sounds kind of like a whispered word or two and culminates with the wind blowing a door shut and a chair being pulled across the floor with a string by a hidden accomplice? Or maybe a blurry image of a shadow moving? Yeah, they never really live up to the hype, do they?

Unfortunately, some of that may be due to the fact that anyone, with any motive, can post stuff on the internet and some people are more scrupulous and credible than others. But it’s still kind of fun to see

what people come up with and decide for yourself if you believe any of it or not. And, it’s also a lot of fun to hear some of the creepy stories that surround ghosts and the supernatural. Let’s be honest. You loved them as a kid, and even though you may be an adult now, you can still be drawn into the tale, especially if it has a bit of real history thrown in for good measure.

If that sounds like something you might be interested in, then you are in luck during the month of October, because there are several ways you can delve into the real, and surreal stories that make up some of our colorful histories here in Golden.

With Halloween in the air, you might want to start out with one of the Golden Cemetery tours presented by the Golden History Museum and Park this Saturday, October 8. This is a guided tour of some of the graves of our most famous and

legendary characters and your guide is storyteller Barb Warden. There is one at 11:30 a.m. and another at 1 p.m. and they sell out every year so you might want to register for them in advance. Tickets run $5 for Museum members and $10 for everyone else plus a bit of an online registration fee. You can do that, as well as get a bit more information by going to www.goldenhistory.org..

Now, if you want to get your fill of ghost stories after dark, or just don’t really want to get up that early on a Saturday, you might want to check out one of the upcoming Talking Dead Haunted Pub Crawl tours that will be happening on Friday and Saturday nights through the entire month of October. They leave from Goosetown Station, located at 514 9th Street in Golden and are a 2 ½ hour tour around town that let you journey back to Golden’s Wild West with stories of shootouts, secret liaisons and even a few tales of murder. Learn all about historic and haunted Downtown Golden while enjoying the best saloons in town. These stories come to life as your guide navigates the haunted streets of Old

Golden City.

These tours are for those age 21 and over and you can choose to drink or not on the tour. One beverage at the first bar is included in the ticket price. Drink specials and custom cocktails will be available along the way for tour-goers, and it ends up at The Buffalo Rose after the tour to meet the cast. Yes, there’s an entire cast of characterås along the way to add more life to the dead…Or something like that.

There are two tour departure times, 7 or 8 p.m., each night and tickets run $50. You can get them at www.goldenhistorytours.com/ talking-dead.

Just one final note. If that last tour passes by my house and you see me in the window, I’m not a ghost. I just play one on T.V.

Choosing what to call someone requires grace

Iwas watching “The Hobbit” the other day, and it came to that scene in which Bilbo Baggins is trying to avoid telling the great dragon, Smaug, about himself. So, he claimed a list of descriptors that, he thought, would disguise his origins from the dragon. “Barrel Rider,” “Ring Winner,” “Stinging Fly,” and “Web Cutter,” to name a few.

And, it got me to thinking, we name our children entirely too young. Like, we put this label on them before we know a darn thing about them. Sometimes we name them after favored relatives, or famous people, as if we’re trying to project onto them some sort of life trajectory, some collection of characteristics that we hope they will emulate in life.

That’s an awful lot of pressure, you know?

As a teacher, I always had the reverse problem: so many names conjured up images of troublesome kids that it was difficult, sometimes, to settle on a name.

The Catholics have a nice tradition. When a Catholic child goes through the Sacrament of Confirmation, they are given a new name, one that has significance in the Church, and which, presumably, reflects what the

HITTING HOME

parents and priests have been able to ascertain about the character of the child. In my case, this happened when I was 13, and my parents chose for me the name “Thomas,” after the disciple who was known as “The Doubting.”

people who manage challenging moments with ease and an ability to put others at ease. Lizzy has a remarkable ability to step into difficult situations and make them easy for other people; sometimes, to a fault. Sometimes, to the point that she takes more of the burden of the moment onto herself than she should or than she deserves. It is a reflection of great strength on her part.

corrupted in latter-day America. We’re great at extending grace … to the people of our own political persuasion. A Democrat can be seen in blackface, or a Republican caught in an extramarital affair, and survive because their own tribe is all too happy to extend them grace. But not the other guys.

See? I’ve been asking annoying questions for a long time—it’s not new to this column.

My own children would probably have different names now, if we had known who they were before labeling them. For instance, my eldest, whom we named “Elizabeth,” would be known as “Grace.” And not simply because she is a dancer, though dancing has been, heretofore, her defining characteristic. No, Grace is much more than that.

According to Mirriam-Webster, grace is “beauty and ease… pleasant, controlled and polite.” When I think of graceful athletes, I think of people who make very difficult movements seem effortless and easy; when I think of graceful personalities, I think of

But, there is another sense of the word “Grace” that is all too often overlooked in this society. Grace is also the ability to extend to another person the best of intentions, and to offer them an opportunity to return to the common company through mistakes. It is a part of our Christian heritage, beginning with the belief that human sin is forgiven through Grace; it extends between humans when we choose to see mistakes as just that—mistakes— and not condemn and shun somebody on account of their mistakes. Lizzy is remarkable in this regard, in that she does not remember wrongs, but focuses on the successes and qualities of the people in her life, and chooses to see how they enrich her, rather than how they’ve wronged her.

It’s a wonderful quality. And one that, I might add, has become horribly

That’s not Grace—that’s cheerleading. That’s being a fan, and it has very little resemblance to the lives of Princess Dianna, or Grace Kelly, or Gandhi.

We all screw up, therefore, we all need grace. Wouldn’t it be substantially easier to expect if we gave of it freely, ourselves?

By the bye… we here on the west side of Denver are very blessed to have a world-class theater operation in our backyard. If you haven’t seen the Arvada Center’s “Into the Woods,“ you have about three days left to catch it. Highly recommend!!

My election endorsements

Every year in October I write about the choices on the ballot for the fall election. It’s easy to write because explicit recommendations for candidates and ballot initiatives take up a lot of words.

While I will make explicit recommendations for all offices up in Jefferson County this year, I think it is important to hear about the quality of candidates up for election. It is important now to realize whether or not someone running for office is a good person.

Maybe six years ago I first met Heidi Ganahl in person at the Automobile Dealers Building. It was a meet the candidates function and we talked only for a half-hour or so. But Heidi impressed me greatly as a woman of both character and substance. Her character was exhibited by the way she rose to the challenge of life’s adversities that are shown at times. Her substance beneath her character enabled her to conquer life’s challenges successfully. I was greatly impressed by her as a

person in that conversation and thought that she deserved to be on the CU Board of Regents. That ambition came true and electing Heidi as our next Governor will put a capable and competent woman in a place where she can accomplish a lot of good for Colorado.

Another good and capable person on the ballot this fall is Jeffco’s own Lang Sias. He is running to be State Treasurer and electing him would put an accomplished man in a key position. Like Heidi Ganahl, I’ve had some conversations with Lang Sias and he is an excellent man of sterling character who would make a spectacular State Treasurer.

Another Jeffco resident, Pam Anderson, is running for Secretary of State. She is a thoroughly competent

professional who would make an excellent Secretary of State. Pam Anderson is also a wonderful and kind person. John Kellner is a very competent prosecutor who would make a wonderful Attorney General. Dan Maloit would make a wonderful addition to the State Board of Education.

Jefferson County has three Congressional districts, CD-2, CD-6 and CD-7. I’ve known Marshall Dawson the Republican nominee in CD-2 for a few years now. He is an excellent man that would make a good Congressman. Steve Monahan in CD-6 and Erik Aadland in CD-7. I’m voting for Molly Lamar for CD-6 representative to the State Board of Education. I’m voting for Joe O’Dea in the contest for the U.S. Senate.

In Jefferson County we have some wonderful local candidates who are seeking election. Chief among them are a wonderful gentleman, State Rep Colin Larson of Littleton, who needs to be reelected in House District 25.

Dan Montoya in House District 28 is a newcomer who deserves to be elected as Jaylen Mosqueria in House District 38. Other candidates that you can vote for are Fred Clifford in House District 23, Bill Patterson in House District 24, Lynn Emrick in House District 27, Vanessa DeMott in House District 29, Russ Carter in House District 30, Mark Baisley in Senate District 4, Tim Walsh in Senate District 20 and Colby Dreschel in Senate District 22.

For local offices, I urge a vote for Don Rosier for County Commissioner, Libby Szabo for County Assessor, Vicki Pyne for County Clerk and Recorder. For the best manner to combat crime I urge a vote for Ed Brady for Jeffco Sheriff. Former Treasurer Faye Griffin should be elected again to her old job. Bob Hennessey should be reelected County Surveyor and Matt Archuleta should be elected County Coroner.

Joe Webb is the former chairman of the Jeffco Republican party.

Think your vote doesn’t matter? Think again.

Coloradans voted in record numbers in 2020 – 3,303,265 ballots were cast, an amazing turnout of 87 percent. People think big national elections are important, and they are, but what many don’t realize is that the decisions most likely to impact their daily lives are made at the local and state level by people elected in mid-term elections like the one this year.

What’s more, we’re still reeling from the tumultuous 2020 election and its continuing aftermath, and that may be giving you pause about voting again this year. In fact, are you using one of these excuses?

“Politics is too polarized – I want nothing to do with it!” One reason parties are moving to the extremes is because the small number of voters who hold those extreme positions are more likely to vote than moderates. So, the fewer people who vote, the more polarized politics becomes. Higher voter turnout (that means you) in primaries and midterm elections broadens representation and dilutes the influence of extremists.

“My vote isn’t secure.” The Justice Department, the Department

of Homeland Security, the FBI and, closer to home, the Colorado State Department and the Colorado County Clerk Association have all confirmed that voting in Colorado is secure and safe from domestic and foreign interference.

“I don’t understand the issues.” You don’t have to be an expert, just be informed. It’s easy to get hung up on binaries – is this good or bad? But issues are more nuanced and there are many points of view. Voting is your chance to express yours. You are not likely to find a candidate who mirrors your opinion exactly on every issue, so read up on the things that are most important to you and then find out where the candidates stand.

“I don’t like either candidate.” How do you know? The beauty of local elections is that it is possible to hear candidates in person and perhaps even meet them. Contrary to popular belief, most people run for office out of a desire to serve and once you get

to know them, you may like them better than you expect.

And now, the worst excuse of

all. “The results are a foregone

Rosenberry Lecture series returns to in person

Everybody missed different things when the COVID-19 pandemic forced the world to go virtual. For some it was concerts at their favorite venues, others movies at their local silver screen and for still others it was getting to hear in person from some of the country’s leading historians.

Fortunately for those in the final category, History Colorado has relaunched the in-person version of its Rosenberry Lecture Series . The series kicked off in September with Jorge Zamanillo, founding director of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Latino, and will be bringing fascinating discussions to audiences all season long.

“The series has been a mainstay for a long, long time at History Colorado, where we bring in great speakers from around the state and country, all with an eye toward telling Colorado stories we can all connect with,” explained Jason Hanson, chief creative officer with the organization. “We’re excited to return after two years of virtual talks, which just weren’t the same as the series our patrons have come to know and love.”

The series runs through Wednesday, May 17, 2023, and can be attended in-person at the History Colorado Center , 1200 North Broadway, or virtually. Each lecture will be held on the third Wednesday of the month at 1 p.m.

Some of the discussions attendees can look forward to include: Oct. 19: Colorado’s Unlikely Gender Crossroads: The Re-

markable Story Behind the Book, “Going to Trinidad”

Veteran journalist and magazine editor Martin J. Smith discusses Trinidad’s surprising role as a world center for gender-confirmation surgery, and the doctors and medical pilgrims who have had their lives changed there for 41 years.

Jan. 18: The Life and Times of Colorado Barbecue

James Beard award-winning author and culinary historian Adrian Miller will provide an informative and entertaining look at people and places that shaped Colorado’s barbecue traditions.

March 15: The Once and Future Hope of Dearfield: Colorado’s African American Colony in the Early 20th Century

The African American farm colony of Dearfield was founded east of Greeley in 1910 and black homesteaders were able to realize their dream of owning land and building their own community. The decade-long Dearfield Dream Project is working to tell the story of this unique place. This talk is presented by Bob Brunswig, Ph.D., professor emeritus and university research fellow at the University of Northern Colorado, Richard Edwards, Ph.D., director emeritus of the Center for Great Plains Studies at the University of Nebraska

and George H. Junne, Jr., Ph.D., professor and coordinator of African Studies at the University of Northern Colorado.

“The series is really about helping people realize we’re all connected to a shared past and helping them encounter stories they may not be familiar with or realize is connected to their life in some way,” Hanson said. “You can hear amazing stories about the past and see how we’re all connected by a place called Colorado and the experiences both us and our ancestors have had.”

CSO plays an evening of quartets

For those looking for the grandeur and sweep of orchestral music with something a little more intimate, you won’t want to miss the Colorado Symphony’s “An Intimate Evening of Famous Quartets,” held at the Parsons Theatre , 1 E. Memorial Parkway in Northglenn, at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 6.

The performance will highlight the music of violins, violas and cellos as they play works from famous composers through the ages. The concert will feature Yumi Hwang-Williams, who has been Concertmaster of the Symphony for more than 20 years.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Carly Rae Jepsen at Mission Ballroom

I know there are countless reasons to love pop stars like Beyonce and Taylor Swift, but my favorite is Canada’s Carly Rae Jepsen

I’m so excited that Jepsen is releasing a new album — the fantastically titled “The Loneliest Time” — on Oct. 21 and she’ll be at the Mission Ballroom , 4242 Wynkoop St. in Denver, a week before at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 12. The initial singles have been quite promising and I can’t wait to hear them along some of her flawless classics.

conclusion and my vote won’t make a difference.” Actually,

new districts based on the 2020 census were drawn in Colorado by independent commissions, which means that many districts are more competitive than ever before. The Colorado Sun recently reported that there are seven particularly competitive

state senate districts, and that is enough to determine which party controls the chamber. In other words, results are anything but a foregone conclusion and your vote can sway the outcome.

Voting is one of the most important ways to exercise your

opinion and help shape the community you want to live in. Your voice matters.

Varenyky, borscht and roulade, oh my!

Ukrainians of Colorado host event

“Now whenever you see ravioli, you can call it Italian varenyky,” joked Chef Bo Porytko, at Ukrainians of Colorado’s cooking class fundraiser.

Hosted on Oct. 2, the fundraiser was filled with 42 students, three cooks and the smells of pletinka, bigos varenyky and borscht.

Ukrainians of Colorado is a nonprofit that formed eight years ago in response to the war starting in Ukraine in 2014, when Russia seized Crimea, and for the need of a social club for Ukrainians to “exchange ideas … preserve our heritage, our language … and help Ukraine,” president of the group Marina Dubrova said. The cooking class was one way to do just that.

It had Tetiana Stratilat, a private culinary chef in Kyiv who only arrived in Colorado a few months ago, preparing pletinka — a braided poppy seed bread — with students rolling out the dough and braiding the breads themselves. Before long, Nataliya Dun, who said she’d never taught a cooking class before, had made a potato dish with bacon and crushed onions for everyone to try before starting borscht from scratch.

The most involved for the class

might have been Porytko’s bigos varenyky, or pierogies. After making the dough, people were shown

how to roll and cut out the circles to then wrap the varenyky filling in. Porytko, who’s also the head chef of Misfits Snack Bar, had to find another pan because, as he put it, he’d created a varenyky-making monster.

Katya Magee, a Lakewood resident whose grandparents emigrated to the U.S. from Ukraine, said she makes plenty of Ukrainian food at home, but was sure she could learn more.

“It’s definitely a great way to get more exposure to different stories. You’re able to listen to everyone,” said Elvis Dun, who is from Odessa, Ukraine and moved to Colorado in 2014, on the more social aspects.

Also on the menu for Porytko was chicken kiev roulade — a core of butter, garlic, paprika and parsley wrapped with pounded chicken thighs before being breaded and fried. Students were able to pound and wrap their own.

At the same time, Porytko made the point that Ukrainian cuisine is not one cuisine, but many. Just as food is different from north to south here due to climate, the same goes for Ukraine. He gave the example of south Ukraine, which he compares to Florida, not using many root vegetables due to the summer climate as up north, which he compares to

Colorado.

Ukrainian music filled the air alongside the smells of food as people finally sat to eat their creations.

“We drink a lot, we dance a lot,” said Dubrova, as wine and vodka was passed out for the varenyky, borscht — vegetarian and meat — and roulade.

Heidi Ganahl, Jared Polis debate EVs, taxes and more

In the first debate between Gov. Jared Polis and his Republican challenger, Heidi Ganahl, the most spirited exchange was about auto mobiles — and specifically, the ones the candidates drive.

It began as Ganahl attacked Polis’ environmental policies, part of a much broader argument over their visions for Colorado’s future.

“Don’t expect a single mom of three working two jobs to buy (an all-electric) Tesla or rely solely on public transportation,” she said of Polis’ plans to decarbonize the state’s economy in the decades ahead. “It’s too far, too fast.”

Polis shot back: “Well, I thought you drive a Tesla, don’t you?”

Ganahl said her family has three cars, including a “Chevy Express conversion van with 120,000 miles on it.”

Polis responded: “Not everybody can afford a Tesla, like my oppo nent.”

Ganahl said: “Well, you can.”

In fact, they both can. It was an unusual bit of social showmanship from two candidates who are among the wealthiest people in Colorado. Polis has made hundreds of mil lions of dollars selling tech busi nesses, while Ganahl sold her own doggy day care franchise for more than $17 million.

The automotive theater continued as the governor proclaimed that, despite his goal of getting 940,000

electric vehicles on the state’s roads by 2030, he drives “an internal combustion engine. I think that’s all you need to know,” a line which drew laughs.

(Polis has a Ford Escape but may have previously owned an EV, ac cording to a campaign spokeswom an, and is driven around for official duties in a Chevy Suburban.)

Nathaniel Minor/CPR NewsRe publican candidate for governor Heidi Ganahl, flanked by support ers, released her transportation plan in Denver on Thursday, Sept. 15, 2022.

A minute later, Ganahl revived the topic with an explanation for the Tesla: “I thought, before I ran, ‘I’m gonna get an electric car so I can live it, and feel it, and see what it’s like.’”

Her conclusion: Electric vehicles aren’t feasible for low-income families, and Polis, she added, should “walk the talk” by buying an electric car.

The incumbent’s response? “Lend me yours … I’ll just borrow yours.”

The unusual exchange consumed a few minutes of a debate that stretched more than an hour, hosted by the Greater Pueblo Chamber of Commerce at CSU-Pueblo, with sponsorship from Black Hills En ergy.

This head-to-head may set the template for the final weeks of the election. Ganahl blamed Polis for high energy costs, bank robberies, rising cocaine and fentanyl use, the auto theft rate and more, and called

his COVID-19 response overreach ing and underhanded.

She accused Polis of closing schools and churches while “keep ing pot shops open.” He contended that Colorado was ahead of many other states in reopening.

“He’s grown the size of govern ment,” Ganahl said. “He’s added taxes, fees, new social programs. Small business owners can’t keep up with all the programs they’re supposed to implement and pay for. There’s only so much money in the bucket.”

Ganahl reiterated her campaign promise to eliminate the income tax, which brings in more than $13 billion a year to the state and sup plies more than half of the general fund. She also wants to cut the gas tax in half.

Meanwhile, Polis tried to discred it her tax-slashing plans as unreal istic and dangerous. He pointed out that the Colorado State Patrol and other services are currently funded by those taxes.

“Her gas tax plan (will) cut fund ing in half for the State Patrol,” he said, while touting his own public safety spending law. “Her income tax plan (will) defund Corrections, let criminals out on the street.”

Ganahl dismissed the criticism, saying she would never cut funds to law enforcement. She has said that she would instead cut spending elsewhere: “We’re going to shrink the size of government by 10 per cent a year by doing a hiring freeze and addressing vacancy funds,” she said, adding that she would hire a private auditor to find fraud and waste.

“We have a spending problem here in Colorado, not a revenue problem,” she said.

Cutting more than $13 billion from the budget would require finding savings equal to the state’s current general fund spending on education, health care, human ser vices and corrections, combined.

Polis said that his administration has saved people money with big new laws on health insurance, fullday kindergarten and limited free preschool. Free early childhood ed ucation in particular, he said, saves hundreds of dollars per month for families with young children.

Ganahl said she “fully supports pre-K care,” but said that she’d rather entrust it to private indus try, charities and churches. She also would “go all in” on school choice, allowing families to take public funding to the school of their choice.

On criminal justice, Ganahl criticized Polis for reducing the sentence of Rogel Lazaro AguileraMederos, the truck driver at fault

in a crash that killed four people on I-70, from 110 years to a decade. (Ganahl said the governor at least should have waited before acting, a criticism echoed by the district attorney in the case.)

Ganahl also pointed out, among other criticisms, that on Polis’ watch, state lawmakers abolished the death penalty.

And in some of her harshest attacks of the night, she accused Polis of signing a law that she said killed the daughter of a woman named Mickey she met on the cam paign trail. The policy in question made possession of small amounts of some drugs, including fentanyl, a misdemeanor instead of a felony.

“I hope you will give them an an swer and give Mickey an answer,” she said. Ganahl didn’t detail the connection between the death of the person’s daughter and the 2019 drug reform law. Polis responded: “Fentanyl has been, is and will be illegal in the state of Colorado, as long as I am your governor.” He pointed to a law passed this year that reinstated felony possession charges for a gram or more of fen tanyl, as well as adding funding for treatment.

The candidates also touched on the issue of water. Polis challenged Ganahl to take a stand against a proposal that had aimed to trans port water from the San Luis Valley to Douglas County, where Ganahl lives.

“Even Congresswoman (Lauren) Boebert joined me in opposition to this buy-and-dry plan that would destroy the ag economy of the San Luis Valley,” he said.

Ganahl didn’t take up the topic, but said she wants to build more water storage — also a stated prior ity for Polis — and promised a firm stance on Colorado River negotia tions.

“We’ll neutralize any negotiations on the Colorado River Compact. We only stand to lose in that, and we’ll balance property rights with com munity rights,” Ganahl said.

And, of course, when it came to energy, they talked about more than just Teslas. Ganahl said Colorado should keep supporting in-state oil drillers, since they’re more efficient than drillers elsewhere.

“The stakes are so high here, and again, we produce the cleanest energy on the planet right here in Colorado. Let’s get them back to work,” she said. (Colorado’s drilling rig count has shrunk by more than two-thirds while Polis has been in office. That mirrors the trends seen nationwide, including in conserva tive states like Texas, amid fluctuat

Political ads are costly during Broncos games

Big viewership requires equally big spending

Candidates and super PACs shell out hundreds of thousands of dollars to reach voters during Denver Broncos games in election years, hoping to parlay big viewership into a touchdown on Election Day.

And 2022 is no exception.

A Broncos game is typically the most expensive ad time available in Colorado’s three TV advertising markets — Denver, Colorado Springs and Grand Junction. It’s easy to tell why: nearly 20 million people watched the Broncos lose Sept. 12 to the Seattle Seahawks. And TV ads are often a statewide or congressional candidate’s best shot at influencing voters.

The TV ad air-time rates are most expensive in Denver and least expensive in Grand Junction, though they vary among stations in a single market. And super PACs pay far more than candidates as part of requirements under federal campaign finance law.

The cost of a Denver Broncos ad varied on the Sept. 25 game on NBC depending on when the ad aired and whether it was purchased by a candidate or super PAC. From top, the price for American Policy Fund in the U.S. Senate contest, 8th Congressional District Republican candidate Barbara Kirkmeyer and Democratic Gov. Jared Polis.

The Colorado Sun examined ad contracts for the Broncos’ 11-10 win Sept. 25 over the San Francisco 49ers, as well as the Broncos’ Oct. 2 matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders.

The American Policy Fund, a federal super PAC aligned with Republicans, spent $75,000 on an ad attacking Democratic U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet during Sunday’s game on KUSA-TV, also known as 9News. But Bennet and Democratic Gov. Jared Polis each spent only $30,000 for 30-second spots on the same sta-

ing oil prices during the pandemic.)

As the debate closed, Polis tried to pin Ganahl as an extremist, narrowing in on her choice of Danny Moore as her running mate. Moore had questioned the 2020 election results on Facebook, reportedly referring in one post to “the Democrat steal.”

“She chose an election denier,” he said.

Ganahl defended Moore, who is a U.S. Navy veteran and an entrepreneur.

“Danny’s made it very clear. He respects Joe Biden and he’s his commander in chief, as have I, and Danny’s actually an incredible per-

tion during the game.

And 8th Congressional District Republican candidate Barbara Kirkmeyer’s campaign spent $60,000 on a 30-second spot during the same game. Kirkmeyer’s ad was more costly because it aired in the middle of the game instead of before the start or after the game ended.

The Polis campaign spent $7,000 to air two ads during the Sept. 25 game on KOAA-TV in Colorado Springs, the NBC affiliate in southern Colorado. State-level Democratic super PAC Strong Colorado for All spent $11,250 to air an ad on the station opposing Republican gubernatorial candidate Heidi Ganahl.

In Grand Junction, Polis spent $1,100 for two ads during the Sept. 25 game on NBC affiliate KKCO-TV.

For the Broncos’ Oct. 2 game, American Policy Fund was to pay KCNC-TV, also known as CBS4, $150,000 to air its anti-Bennet ad. That appears to be the most costly single ad in recent years, according to The Sun’s records.

Polis and Kirkmeyer were each scheduled to spend $70,000 for 30 seconds of air time during that game.

Strong Colorado for All is spending $15,000 for a pre-game ad on KCNC.

In the Colorado Springs market, Polis had two ads booked on KKTVTV, the CBS affiliate in southern Colorado, for the Oct. 2 game, one at a cost of $4,875 and the other for $3,900. The less expensive ad runs 15 seconds rather than 30.

Strong Colorado for All is spending $12,500 for a pre-game ad in Colorado Springs.

The Polis campaign was also paying $1,500 to KREX-TV in Grand Junction, the CBS affiliate in western Colorado, to air an ad during the Oct. 2 game.

son,” she said.

In her final statement, Ganahl warned of a dark future under Polis. “I will not stand by and watch this beautiful state be destroyed,” she said, accusing Polis of “fighting for his own political career, for his own American Dream to be president and do (to) our country … what he’s done to our state.”

Polis closed out by dubbing Ganahal a “MAGA candidate” citing her own primary election literature, and saying she wants to defund public services, among other charges.

“We can choose to solve problems rather than just talk about them,” he said as he made his pitch for a second term.

At the conclusion of the roughly hour-long debate, Polis crossed the stage and they shook hands.

O cial state fish makes second comeback

For decades, experts feared Colorado’s greenback cutthroat trout to be extinct, a casualty of mining pollution, anglers and more competitive species. So when biologists made the improbable discovery of a naturally reproducing population in a short stretch of Bear Creek west of Colorado Springs 10 years ago, they clung to the hope that the near-miracle could be replicated.

On Sept. 23, Colorado Parks and Wildlife confirmed that the Bear Creek greenbacks now have company. Reintroduction efforts in Herman Gulch, the popular hiking destination just off Interstate 70 near the Loveland ski area, have yielded fish that are reproducing on their own — and sparking renewed optimism that other greenback stocking projects will soon follow suit.

State natural resources officials said the news affirmed their “bedrock mission” to support wildlife across the state and reflected years of collaborative effort among agencies. The stocking in Herman Gulch started in 2016, and now includes its first population of greenback cutthroats — the official state fish — old enough to reproduce .

“It’s kind of a waiting game for those fish to mature and reproduce,” said Josh Nehring, assistant aquatic

section manager for CPW. “So we’re just super excited and hoping to get a lot more populations out on the landscape.

“In a typical system, when we’re trying to start a population, we will often stock three-year classes — so stock fry (young fish) for three years in a row,” Nehring added. “And typically in three years they become sexually mature. And so hopefully after three years of stocking or four, we should have adults in the population to where they can start reproducing on their own.”

Colorado Trout Unlimited lauded the announcement as great news for the state’s watersheds, and a reward to the nonprofit’s volunteers who lugged water tanks bearing greenback fry up Herman Gulch multiple years in a row.

“For everybody who helped in some way getting fish into Herman Gulch, it’s a great first step toward that longterm conservation goal,” executive director David Nickum said. Wildlife advocates will be watching to see if reproduction is sustainable for such places in Colorado, he said.

That greenback cutthroat trout

have managed to reproduce in the Herman Gulch high country is the latest development in a complicated, decadelong effort to reintroduce the threatened fish to its native streams. Like many species in the West, the greenback cutthroat used to be native and thriving in multiple streams in Colorado’s South Platte River drainage, which stretches from the foothills and canyons of the Front Range to high mountain waters near the Continental Divide.

A Colorado Parks and Wildlife project for years has kept the public away from stretches of Bear Creek in a canyon west of Colorado Springs, where a reproducing population of the fish was discovered in 2012 following on and off speculation the species might be extinct. CPW teams electroshock small pools in Bear Creek to extract eggs (known as roe) and sperm (known as milt) from the fish before returning them to the creek.

Some of the reproductive material is taken to state and federal hatcheries to develop genetically diverse broodstock. Teams have then taken fingerlings from the hatchery in waterfilled backpacks to various promising habitats in the high country — Herman Gulch, Dry Gulch, the west fork of Clear Creek and Williams Gulch. Placing the fish in multiple habitats reduces the likelihood that events ranging from sediment to wildfire to disease pose an existential threat to the species.

But until now, the Bear Creek greenbacks have been closely guarded as the only self-sustaining population. CPW aquatic biologist Cory Noble led a team last spring that strapped on electrofishing backpacks and battled thick underbrush as they worked their way up the creek collecting fish for the project.

Seeing the results of that ongoing effort proved especially gratifying.

“It’s definitely highly rewarding to see that we’re making a difference now and that we have more than one population that we’re actually making headway in restoring that species out on the landscape,” Noble said. “It is kind of my life’s work, and this makes it seem all worthwhile.”

Although Bear Creek no longer holds the distinction of harboring the only self-sustaining population of greenback cutthroat trout, Noble said he does not expect any changes in the management of the drainage that might loosen restrictions for hikers or bikers.

“We’re still quite a number of years off from having fully restored greenback cutthroat trout populations throughout the state,” he said. “So I think that Bear Creek does remain critical for the recovery of the species.”

Workers at the Mount Shavano State Fish Hatchery in Salida and

the Leadville National Fish Hatchery also celebrated the Herman Gulch discovery after spending years on the often difficult work of nurturing the broodstock — a smaller population raised in optimal conditions for breeding and eventual dispersal. Genetic material extracted from cutthroat in Bear Creek makes quite a journey before its fingerlings find their way to waterways that might be conducive to their survival.

Generally, Bear Creek yields few eggs, but the milt from the males gets transported to Salida, where workers relay it to Leadville, where it’s introduced to eggs, which then return to the Salida hatchery to grow. The survival rate is notoriously low — about 10%, said Bryan Johnson, manager of the Salida hatchery.

“We spend a lot of time counting eggs,” said Johnson, leader of the seven-person crew at the hatchery.

“It’s a yearlong process to produce the fish that actually go back into our broodstock. It takes about a (full time equivalent) every year to work on these cutthroats. A lot of times, it hasn’t always been rewarding. Now to see this, it makes everybody happy to see the goal come to fruition after all these years.”

Thriving trout are an indicator of a healthy watershed, while loss of trout is an early warning sign of a declining stream, Nickum said. Declines of fish and flies for their food on the Colorado River near Granby prompted years of work resulting in the recent groundbreaking for reconnection of the river at the Windy Gap dam, which had disrupted natural water flows.

More habitat for the greenback cutthroats broadcast from Bear Creek origins is on the way in Lost Creek Wilderness, once state officials make sure a stream there that is part of the South Platte River drainage is free of whirling disease, Nickum said. Other greenback cutthroat projects supported by Trout Unlimited are at various stages at the headwaters of the Cache la Poudre River in northern Colorado, where CPW has developed additional broodstock.

Joe Bushyhead, an endangered species attorney with WildEarth Guardians, called news that the greenback cutthroats have begun to reproduce in Herman Gulch heartening. But he said the work to restore the state fish is not done. “These native fish have a long path to recovery in the wild, and news of a reproducing population marks progress.”

Loneliness may play role in Alzheimer’s, Colorado researcher says

Local professor

Dr. Rebecca Mullen had been seeing a patient for about four years, and she noticed he was becoming more and more lonely — he would come to see her more often just for a social connec tion.

Then, he started to experience a rapid decline in his memory and was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.

Mullen wondered whether the man’s loneliness was “one of his first telltale signs” that he was developing a memory problem before people ever noticed it.

If she had seen the potential connec tion before, “could I have changed the trajectory of his memory decline?” Mullen wondered.

It’s the kind of question that led her to focus on the role of loneliness in the development of Alzheimer’s disease, the topic of a study she is conducting and seeking participants for.

There’s a growing body of research on the negative health impacts of loneliness, said Mullen, an assistant professor at the University of Colorado Department of Family Medicine.

But “what is loneliness doing that may be impacting brain health? (And) is there a loneliness time frame that matters — does it matter how long someone is lonely for?” Mullen said.

Also on her mind: Does it matter whether someone recovers from loneli ness?

Unpacking loneliness

Loneliness may seem like a difficult feeling to track, but there are a few “validated measures” of loneliness, Mullen said.

The most common one is the Uni versity of California, Los Angeles, or UCLA, loneliness questionnaire, she said. Researchers can measure differ ent dimensions of loneliness, such as if a person is feeling a lack of compan ionship, feeling isolated or just left out.

It’s the type of measure Mullen will use in her research.

For some people, loneliness may be a temporary feeling of missing friends, family or intimate relationships, but Mullen believes long-term loneliness may signal serious consequences, including cognitive decline and increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease, according to a news release about her research.

A number of studies suggest that people with cognitive impairment have higher levels of loneliness than those without cognitive impairment, potentially due to the social disengage ment that may occur with increased deficits in comprehension, memory and communication, Mullen said in the news release.

That’s one way that brain decline can fuel social isolation, a pattern that could then further intensify problems with the brain.

It’s a “chicken and the egg” issue, Mullen said.

“Does loneliness always come first, then leading to memory problems down the road, or do memory prob lems come first and then they become

lonely?” Mullen told Colorado Commu nity Media.

Previous work has illustrated that those with transient, or temporary, loneliness do not have increased risk for Alzheimer’s disease, while those with persistent loneliness do, accord ing to the news release.

Looking for study participants

Mullen’s research recently started, and she’s looking for more participants — and it’s not difficult to join the study.

The current patient cohort is 90% White, so Mullen is looking for people from different backgrounds to make the study more diverse.

“This is actually an issue (through out the field), where the people we’re recruiting and engaging to be in our studies don’t reflect the population,” Mullen said.

Women are at a higher risk of developing Alzheimer’s than men, and Black Americans and Hispanic Americans are at a higher risk of Alzheimer’s compared to their White counterparts, Mullen said.

Her research will include healthy people without any signs or symptoms of cognitive decline and follow their changes in loneliness, brain activity and biomarkers, or signs of Alzheim er’s, according to the news release.

Those who decide to participate in the study would do an annual evalua tion where researchers reach out and ask them a variety of questions about loneliness and memory, Mullen said.

Some participants may do brain imaging, she said. Mullen hopes people are willing to be involved for

multiple years because the study needs to collect data over time. But there’s no weekly or monthly commitment needed to participate, she said.

Those interested in participating can email rebecca.mullen@cuanschutz. edu or call Jim Herlihy with the Colorado chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association at 970-590-5885.

The Alzheimer’s Association is a nonprofit health organization that works to accelerate progress in the prevention and cure of Alzheimer’s.

A problem on the rise

Mullen, who teaches family-med icine residents at the CU Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, feels that there’s not enough attention on trying to understand the risk factors that can lead to Alzheimer’s.

“Because ideally, you (wouldn’t) even develop Alzheimer’s, so you (wouldn’t) need treatment. This is going to be come so important as people” continue to live longer, Mullen said.

The prevalence of Alzheimer’s is ex pected to double over the next 30 years. In the U.S., there are 6.5 million people with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia — that’s projected to increase to 13 million in the U.S. by 2050, Mullen said.

Alzheimer’s disease is a memoryaffecting condition that worsens over time, and dementia is a general term for loss of memory and other mental abilities that interferes with daily life.

“Understanding how (critical) our social health is for our brain — that is something we can all act on now,” Mullen said.

Mines survives Westminster 1-0 after early goal

ing back to 2019.

Rather than a last-minute goal, the Mines women’s soccer team beat Westminster 1-0 off a fi rstminute goal.

Just 43 seconds into the Oct. 2 game, the Orediggers received a free kick after a foul near midfi eld. Defender Jordan Barnhart, a captain and redshirt junior, tried to chip it in over the back line of defenders.

As she did so, sophomore forward Reese McDermott found it and booted it toward the goal before colliding with the Westminster goalie. The ball found the back of the net, and the Orediggers now had to maintain their lead for the next 89 minutes.

Despite a few close calls, Mines came away with two consecutive home wins for the weekend, beating Colorado Mesa 1-0 on Sept. 30 before the Westminster game. The Orediggers, who were ranked No. 15 in the nation going into the weekend, are 8-1-2 overall and undefeated in conference play. They are also undefeated at home in 24 consecutive games — a streak go-

“I’m really proud of the fi ght we put up,” Barnhart said of the Oct. 2 game. “This was a really tough weekend for us. … We knew we really had to deliver, and I think we did.”

Both wins were thanks to Mines’ major defensive efforts, she continued.

For the Oct. 2 game, the Griffi ns were forced to play catch-up thanks to McDermott’s early goal. Westminster had three shots on goal throughout the game, with eight shots total. Overall, the Utah-based college maintained possession 54% of the game. The Griffi ns’ defense also had fi ve saves.

Mines had close calls of its own, and Coach Kevin Fickes believed the Orediggers were better and more organized in the second half.

“We were able to carve out at least a couple of half-chances for ourselves,” he said of the Orediggers’ second-half play.

By the fi nal horn, Mines had racked up 12 total shots and six shots on goal. Freshman goalkeeper Sadie Wolf also had three saves in her collegiate debut.

McDermott felt the Orediggers passed well and kept their composure, despite the Griffi ns’ pressure

“They might’ve been coming at us pretty hard, but I think we went at them pretty hard as well,” McDermott said.

Barnhart remarked how a 1-0 score is always stressful to maintain, adding, “The fact that we held (Westminster) to 1-0 the entire game … it just shows how much heart we have and how tough we are.”

Mines has six games remaining

in the regular season, and Fickes said a major consideration for the team now is upcoming midterms. With the student-athletes seeing an increased academic workload, the coaches must take into account how long and when the team trains.

After a hard-fought weekend, Fickes said his goal for the team was a well-rested Oct. 3 and a good practice on Oct. 4.

“One day at a time,” he continued.

The Orediggers’ next game is Oct. 6 at Colorado Christian. For more information, visit minesathletics.com.

Are oasis lawns just right for this climate?

The term and the technique of xeri scaping was invented by Denver Water for the high desert, but it’s often been a hard aesthetic sell among consumers. Some thought of it as “zeroscaping” — as in zero appeal — and weren’t im pressed with how much landscaping water the desert-style designs could save in their home yards.

But urban and suburban dwellers on the Front Range are starting to realize the days of unlimited expanses of unquenchable, green lawns are over. They suck down way too much Colorado River water, and they’re get ting outlawed in some big cities, such as Aurora.

So, is an “oasis” home landscape the Goldilocks solution, just right for both water use and city climate comfort?

A new study from the Desert Re search Institute and scientists at two Western universities seems to think so. The researchers compared both wa ter use and air temperatures at three different levels of landscape: mesic, or traditional turf surrounding thirsty trees; what they call xeric, a dry land scape featuring drip-fed desert plants surrounded by dry rock or mulch; and a middle ground, oasis, where shade trees or shrubs and small turf islands break up a drier, resource-friendly landscape.

Play areas and structures give a nod to a more natural landscape inside the High Prairie Park.

The study of different scenes around Phoenix found the oasis style

could be a winning compromise for arid urban climates like those in Ari zona, Colorado, Nevada and South ern California. The oasis uses far less water than turf lawns, and still keeps ambient temperatures within the comfort range produced by the shadier, greener turf.

Air temperatures in the xeriscape plots averaged 5.4 degrees higher than the oasis or mesic, tree-turf style, ac cording to the study, published in the journal Hydrology.

Researcher Rubab Saher of DRI’s Department of Hydrologic Sciences says this “best-of-both-worlds” effect is key to persuading the public, develop ers and city planners to go with the oasis style: They need to be confident that a water-friendly design won’t worsen urban “heat islands” that can make less thoughtful sections of metro Denver, Las Vegas or Phoenix a daytime hellscape.

Plus, the oasis designs are just more pleasant in the eyes of many residents.

“Removing turf grass from the land scape is an excellent approach for sav ing water, but if we remove all the turf grass, the temperature will go up,” Saher said. “For every acre of turf grass removed, we also need to plant native and/or rainfed trees to make arid cities livable in the long run.”

Water analysts praised the report, and mentioned both the number of metro areas cutting back on turf and the plethora of places in Colorado that are demonstrating the oasis tech niques on the ground.

“There’s just more and more momentum even in the last year,”

said Lindsay Rogers, water analyst with the nonprofit Western Resource Advocates. “I’m glad these institutions are trying to get a better understand ing of the landscape materials that could reduce or exacerbate urban heat island effect, because this is a critical issue when we talk about water-wise landscaping best practices, and it comes up a lot.”

Rogers would like to see the same scientific study of Colorado city environments to measure whether on-the-ground practices produce lower temperatures than similar designs in Arizona or Nevada.

Colorado landscapers tend to use more wood-based mulch than rock to replace large grass areas, and she won ders if those different materials would change the heat island measurements.

Colorado developers and water re searchers are demonstrating various levels of the oasis style up and down the Front Range in an encouraging display of drought and climate adapta tion, Rogers said.

The Painted Prairie housing development in Aurora is building water savings into its public parks and homebuilding sites. Northern Water, which supplies dozens of north Front Range communities, has an array of demonstration gardens at its Berthoud headquarters. Denver Botanic Gar dens, Colorado State University and others are also experimenting with plant and material mixes that can save water while cooling the landscape, she said.

Meanwhile, the cities discouraging traditional, curb-to-curb turf are also

trying to encourage alternatives to the southwest desert-style landscaping that gave xeriscaping a bad rep.

“We’re seeing many of our cities in clude parameters in their turf replace ment programs that recognize the benefits of living plant materials, from reducing temperatures to creating more pollinator habitat and providing shade,” Rogers said. That may include a minimum percentage of live plant materials or a minimum number of trees.

“They’re really trying to balance the need to reduce landscape water use with all of those other essential benefits that our landscapes need to provide for us,” she said.

The Desert Research Institute study, with co-authors from Arizona State University and University of Nevada Las Vegas, also looked at landscape im pact on nighttime temperatures, and even whether placement of buildings or houses causes its own climate effect.

Saher says her next project will involve comparing the official wa tering recommendations from the increasingly stingy Southern Nevada Water Authority to how residents are actually watering their lawns.

“To see how far off or how close we are,” she said.
