Orediggers finish season

NCAA Division II runner-up

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

e Colorado School of Mines football team grew tremendously over the last ve months. e team started out with two consecutive losses before winning 13 straight to make it to the rst NCAA Division II National Championship appearance in the

program’s history.

While defending champs Ferris State defeated Mines 41-14 in the Dec. 17 title game, Coach Brandon Moore believed Mines will remain a football powerhouse and championship contender in the coming years.

As the Orediggers bring home the NCAA Division II Runner-Up trophy, the Golden Transcript o ers a look back at the team’s historic year.

2022 season really begins almost a year ago. e team lost its rstever NCAA semi nal game to Valdosta State 34-31 on Dec. 11, 2021.

Despite the loss, Moore — who was defensive coordinator at the time — later said the Orediggers learned they belonged in those big games.

Moore was named Mines’ new head coach on Jan. 31, 2022. He and his colleagues worked to ensure the core of last year’s team

He appeared in court Dec. 16, where his defense attorney asked to continue the preliminary hearing based on the volume of written and video evidence presented during the discovery process.

A preliminary hearing, which is formatted like a small-scale trial, determines whether there is su cient evidence for the case to proceed through the judicial system.

e court approved continuing Marquez’s preliminary hearing to Feb. 3, and also scheduled a status conference for 1 p.m. Jan. 23 at the defense’s request.

Ernesto Avila, the co-defendant in the case, is scheduled for arraignment at 3:30 p.m. Jan. 9. Avila may enter a plea at that time.

Avila, who owns the truck that Marquez reportedly drove into the crowd, is believed to

returned, including almost 30 fthand sixth-year seniors.

Moore described later how the reason everyone stayed was because they believed they could win a national championship.

By the rst week of practice in August, the Orediggers were excited to see so many talented and leadership-minded starters return. Linebacker Nolan Reeve described how he and his fellow seniors understood what standards they must meet to repeat last year’s successes and more.

Moore said of putting together a successful 2022 team: “We won’t be starting from zero; we’ll be starting from at least halfway.”

The regular season

e Orediggers went into the season ranked in the Top 10 nationally, but their rst two games were against fellow Top 10 teams. eir Sept. 3 season opener was at Grand Valley State, and then they hosted Angelo State on Sept. 10.

Mines lost both games by three points — the second one in overtime.

Moore re ected on Dec. 13 how both those losses were extremely tough, but he knew the team would bounce back and accomplish great things. If anything, he said, losing those rst two games only helped the Orediggers become better. Now, they know the di erence between a winning culture and a losing culture, he continued.

Mines rallied after its rst two losses and started rolling through its conference schedule. After the Oct. 8 homecoming win, the team was 4-0 in RMAC play and 4-2 overall.

e only conference game that appeared challenging for the Orediggers was the Oct. 29 game at Western Colorado. Mines was down by 10 as the fourth quarter started, but the team regrouped and scored 20 unanswered points to win 30-20.

On their Nov. 12 Senior Day game, the Orediggers destroyed Fort Lewis 80-0. Mines won the conference title for the fourth straight year, and the 2022-23 senior class became the winningest in program history.

Now, as the Orediggers described, it was time to start the so-called second season.

The playo s

In the NCAA Division II tournament bracket, Mines was named the No. 2 seed in Super Region IV. And, for its rst game of the postseason, the team was facing o against a familiar foe — fellow RMAC team CSU-Pueblo.

e Orediggers beat the underwolves 45-17 in Golden earlier in the season, and the Nov. 19 playo game proved a similar story. Mines won

For its second-round opponent, Mines would be playing No. 3 seed Minnesota State on Nov. 26. e Mavericks proved a tough opponent even with Mines playing at home.

Mines was down 14 points in the rst half but regained momentum thanks to three Josh Johnston touchdown receptions. At halftime, the game was tied at 28.

In the second half, the Orediggers tried to create some breathing room, but the Mavericks wouldn’t quite go

With two minutes left in the game, Minnesota State narrowed Mines’ lead to three points. e Mavericks went for an onside kick, which bounced through the rst Oredigger’s hands, but was secured by the second. After that, the Mines fans celebrated the narrow but certain victory.

Next on the slate was a Dec. 3 quarter nal game at undefeated No. 1 seed Angelo State — the team responsible for Mines’ only home loss of the season.

As Mines supporters watched from the visitor stands or online from Golden and beyond, Angelo State committed three turnovers on offense and special teams. e Orediggers capitalized and kept the Rams at arm’s length during the second half, winning 42-24.

On Dec. 10, Mines hosted Super Region I champion Shepherd, as the Orediggers hoped to overcome last year’s semi nal hurdle.

In possibly the biggest athletic competition in Golden’s history in terms of stakes and attendance, Mines found its rhythm in the second half and destroyed Shepherd

After more than 130 years of football, the Orediggers nally punched their ticket to the National Championship.

He’s been charged with one felony count of accessory to a crime and had his bond reduced from $100,000 to $50,000 last month.

Avila is expected to attend his Jan. 9 arraignment in person.

Meanwhile, the judge said Marquez would be able to attend his Jan. 23 status conference via WebEx, but would need to be in-person for his Feb. 3 preliminary hearing.

Several Rock Rest patrons and employees were injured, and 26-yearold Adrian Ponce was killed.

Getting Personal: Reflections on My 20 Years as a Colorado Real Estate Professional

I’m writing this from a hotel room in Athens, following an 11-day cruise of the Aegean Sea, so real estate isn’t top of mind for me right now. So, what to write about for this column? I needed something that would be easy to write, and it occurred to me to share my path from newly licensed agent over 20 years ago to where I am today. Maybe it will interest a few readers.

I was originally licensed as a Colorado real estate agent in April 2002, so I’m well into my third decade as a real estate broker. It has been a good run.

Real estate is a tough field to break into. Back in 2002, new brokers received a one-year initial license with 3-year renewals. More than half of new licensees would not renew their license at the end of their first year because they had completed few or, likely, no transactions, burned through their savings, and thought it futile to continue.

As I recall it, my gross commission income in my first year was about $7,000. In my second year, it was about $75,000, and in my third year it was $150,000. These are gross figures, because back then we were all “independent contractors” and we had to cover all the costs of being in business — computers, software, MLS dues, Realtor dues, E&O insurance, cell phones, cars and car expenses, and self-employment tax. And most of those expenses came upfront, so waiting six months or longer for a first commission check was hard for anyone who wasn’t prepared to go tens of thousands of dollars in the hole before earning a reliable income.

I had the reserves to outlast that “newbie drought,” and I did go at least $30,000 negative before going positive and ultimately becoming successful.

When a real estate license is first issued, you have to hang your license with a brokerage. You may be an independent contractor, but you can’t be an independent broker until you have two years’

experience as a broker associate and pass a 24-hour employing broker’s class.

I was drawn into getting a real estate license by attending a career night at Coldwell Banker, so hanging my license with them was the easy decision, and they had a two-week “Fast Start” class for new agents taught by Rich Sands which gave me the tools and understanding I needed to put my financial reserves to work.

“You have to spend money to make money,” I reminded myself as I launched into a full-time career as a real estate broker.

I’ll never forget what Rich said in the very first session of that 2-week intensive class. “Congratulations,” he told us new agents, “you are now licensed to sell real estate, and there are 20,000 agents out there with more experience than you. How are you going to make yourself stand out from them?”

At the time I was chair of the speakers bureau for Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver, so my first thought was that I could stand out by promising to give 10% of every earned commission to Habitat. I recall getting one listing from that offer, but Habitat would not promote it, so I dropped that promise after sending them several large checks. I’m still active with Habitat and still donate, but not a percentage of each closing.

The other thing I did — a common strategy recommended by Rich Sands — was to specialize in a particular subdivision and “farm” it for listings. The subdivision I chose was the Village at Mountain Ridge, which had just been completed on the west side of Hwy 93 in Golden.

At the time I had a yellow-naped Amazon parrot, Flower, who I referred to as my “unlicensed personal assistant” and even printed up business cards for her with that title. Countless residents or former residents of Mountain Ridge have

Happy Holidays to Our Readers, Clients & Colleagues

As mentioned above, Rita and I have spent the weeks leading up to Christmas away from home, and it’s a little weird returning to our home on Christmas Eve without having experienced any of those traditional lead-ups to the holiday.

I have had cell service throughout, including on our cruise, but the phone has

hardly rung, so it has been a delightfully quiet time — although my two listings could have appreciated a little activity!

As we move through this weekend and toward New Years, we wish all of you a Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, or a joyous religious or non-religious holiday of your choosing!

pictures of Flower on their children’s shoulders and received her business card which Flower “autographed” by puncturing the edge of it with her beak. I served free ice cream at the neighborhood picnic (with Flower, of course), and I sponsored a yearly garage sale. I also published a regular newsletter, with useful information including but not limited to the real estate market for the subdivision.

In other words, I did all those usual Realtor activities done to get known and trusted by homeowners — plus some things unique to me. It worked well.

However, you’re looking at my most successful investment. Using my experience as a journalist, which included a summer internship at The Washington Post, I chose from the very beginning to write a real estate column. At first it appeared in The Voice of Golden, then the Golden Transcript, and ultimately other Jeffco weekly newspapers and the YourHub section of The Denver Post, a regionalized section of the paper launched around 2005 offering low-cost advertising for individual segments of the paper’s larger circulation. It was so successful in generating business that for several years I have been paying for it to appear in every edition of YourHub.

At first I wrote this column only once a month, but soon I was writing it weekly, spending $30-50,000 per year to have it published in those newspapers. Almost two decades later, I estimate that I get about 90% of my buyers and sellers from long-time (and newer) readers of this “advertorial.” It has also benefited our broker associates (listed below), since I can’t service all the leads that come to me. As a result, the per-agent business done by Golden Real Estate is much higher than that of other brokerages in this market.

Of course, I didn’t know much about real estate when I started writing this column in 2003, but I knew what I didn’t know, and I would research a topic in order to write about it, and I would ask

my managing broker to review and correct what I wrote before sending it to be published. The process taught me a lot about real estate. I saw it as “my personal continuing education program.”

You’ve probably heard the expression that “you teach what you need to learn.” I needed to learn all aspects of real estate, and writing this column was how.

Most brokers with my number of years in the business have numerous initials after their name representing the certifications they have earned by taking special classes. They include Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR), Graduate Realtor Institute (GRI), Certified Residential Specialist (CRS), GREEN, e-Pro, Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES), and others. I have none of those certifications, but my writings have given me a broad understanding in all those fields. I’m not downplaying those classes and certifications — they have helped many of my fellow agents gain knowledge in each field, which is why I look for those initials myself when making referrals. Those initials evidence real knowledge.

I like to tell a story from my childhood which rings true in this context. One of my 9th grade teachers said in an end-of-term report, “Jim shows dangerous signs of becoming a dilettante.” I asked Dad what a dilettante was. “It’s a person who knows a little about everything but not a lot about one thing,” he said. “Sounds good to me!” I replied.

As I have written in the past, the biggest contributor to an agent’s expertise — in most but not all cases — besides those certifications is the number of transactions he or she has completed, more so than the number of years in the business. We learn from every transaction, and I have been blessed to have completed hundreds of transactions. The average agent completes only two or three transactions per year, and a high percentage of agents go an entire year without a paycheck. That was true in 2002 and it’s still true today.

supporters packing the stadium in McKinney, Texas and thousands more watching around the world, the Mines football team kicked o Dec. 17 against defending champs Ferris State.

Unfortunately for the Orediggers, the Bulldogs were well-prepared to handle Division II’s most explosive o ense.

roughout the rst half, senior quarterback John Matocha and his receivers struggled to connect. ey were sti ed by sacks, dropped passes, de ections and su ocating defense.

Meanwhile, Ferris State kept scoring at the other end, racking up two touchdowns and two

elds. Just before halftime, the Bulldogs had a pick-six to make it 27-0.

Mines seemed to nd some o ensive rhythm in the third quarter and tried to chip away at the de cit. e Orediggers got on the board thanks to a quick touchdown reception by running back Michael Zeman.

Wide receiver Josh Johnston had a 14-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter, but by then, the de cit was too great and time too limited.

As the clock nally hit zero, Ferris State celebrated its 41-14 victory and second-straight national title.

Dec. 17 marked the nal game for at least a dozen seniors, including Zeman, Johnston, center Matt Armendariz, and wide receiver Tristan Smith.

Amid the loss, though, there was a silver lining.

On Dec. 16, Matocha was named the 2022 Harlon Hill winner. e quarterback, who has another year of eligibility, thanked all the fans for their support and hoped to win next year’s title game for them.

Moore also believed this season’s secondplace nish will serve as the starting point for a 2023 National Championship run.

“We’ve inched a few steps further every year,” Moore said of the program’s rst national title. “We came up short this year. But, we’re excited for the future, and we fully expect to come out and win next year.”

Oredigger Fever

Mines football fans rally behind team at local watch parties

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Like the Terminator, Colorado School of Mines players, coaches and fans shared the same sentiment this weekend: they’ll be back.

e Mines football team lost in the NCAA Division II National Championship game 41-14 to defending champs Ferris State on Dec. 17. e Orediggers were hoping to win the program’s rst national title.

ousands of Oredigger fans made the trek to watch the team play in McKinney, Texas. Meanwhile, hundreds more turned out for watch parties in and around Golden, including at the Golden Mill, Woody’s Wood Fired Pizza, and Evergreen’s e Wild Game.

At the 11 a.m. kick o , it was standing room only inside the Golden Mill. Hundreds of Mines students, parents, alumni and other fans had their eyes glued to the TV screens, cheering every time the team had a good play and singing the school ght song after the two Oredigger touchdowns.

While the outcome wasn’t what fans had hoped for, with many clearing out before the game ended, Golden’s Tim and Ellen Hawkins be-

lieved they could be back for a watch party next year.

Senior quarterback John Matocha, who won the 2022 Harlon Hill Trophy last week, has another year of eligibility left, Tim pointed out. So, Mines has a good shot to repeat this year’s successes.

“I’m happy they made it this far,” he said of the team. “It’s a very academically rigorous school, and they have the privilege of playing in the nals.”

e Hawkins said one of their

daughters is a current Mines student while the other graduated from there. ey frequent the Mines football games, and talked of driving to McKinney for the National Championship.

However, they opted for the Golden Mill’s watch party, saying they had good conversations with Mines students and alumni. e watch party atmosphere was a lot of fun, they continued, even though the Orediggers didn’t win.

Highlands Ranch’s Dillon Kol-

stad, who graduated from Mines last spring, felt similarly.

People were very excited to see the team go to its rst title game, he described, so the place lled up quickly. He appreciated how Mines alumni of all ages showed up and added that he’d come back for a future watch party.

Isabella Libonate, a junior at Mines, said there were more attendees than she’d expected, but believed that only added to the energy. at was exactly why Lindsey Melville and her family drove down

Making miracles happen

is year, the Rotary Club of Golden and its partners assembled 1,500-2,000 toys for the ninth annual Miracle Shop. And this year, just like every year, there won’t be a single toy left over.

e Rotary hosted its largest Miracle Shop ever this month, with more than 150 shoppers signed up to pick up toys for their children.

Organizer Joan Osborne from the Rotary Club said people’s lives have really changed since the COVID-19 pandemic. e Miracle Shop has seen an increasing number of shoppers in recent years, as more and more local parents struggle to make ends meet, she said.

However, while demand has grown, the community continues to step up and ensure there are plenty of toys for the shoppers. Osborne said dozens of local organizations, businesses and residents donated toys, money and time this year.

For instance, Calvary Church hosted the Dec. 14-16 event again this year; the Golden Optimists Club donated 40 children’s and teen’s bikes; the Golden Mill hosted a giveback event; and the list goes on, according to Osborne.

Last week, a large room in Calvary Church was packed with a myriad of toys for preschool-age children to teenagers. Bicycles and scooters were lined up in the hallway. Shoppers walked around with carts, pick-

ing out three toys per child, while volunteers restocked items on the tables.

Shoppers signed up online ahead of time, Osborne commented, which was a new feature this year. Since they started with a small event at

Pleasant View Elementary School in 2014, the volunteers have tried to nd ways to improve the experience each year as the shop has grown. What sets e Miracle Shop apart from similar events is that shoppers pay what they can, and funds go

toward purchasing toys for next year. ere’s a box set up for funds by the shop’s exit, where shoppers can pay as they’re able.

Many appreciate it, the volunteers described, because it doesn’t feel like they’re receiving a handout or accepting charity. As volunteer Melinda Aberle described, shoppers can pay thrift-store prices for brand

Shoppers can also volunteer in exchange for “miracle bucks” to shop with.

Aberle started volunteering at e Miracle Shop with her grandson six years ago, and ensures she helps out every year. She said it’s one of the best charities in Golden.

“It’s a wonderful thing for the kids,” she said. “It’s nice to see the little kids’ eyes brighten up (when they receive their presents).”

Debra Casias, who attends Calvary Church, heard about it through the church and decided to volunteer for the rst time this year. She loves to give back to and through the church, saying she donated a bike for e Miracle Shop and has donated coats and other items through other church e orts.

She commented how it’s been a hard time for a lot of local families, and was excited to hear how e Miracle Shop was a great resource for parents trying to a ord holiday presents.

He hopes people won’t use this incident as a reason to opt out of Lookout Alert because it provides a vital service to warn residents of emergencies. Instead, he hopes people see these calls as an indicator that the system can work.

“While we have gotten some negative comments on social media,” Streeter said, “honestly, we have had a lot of positive comments, too. ey said at least they know the system works, and they were noti ed.”

Streeter noted that Lookout Alert noti ed everyone in Je erson County who has signed up for the service even when they were out of town.

We will provide the highest quality of work possible. Our professional sta will assure a high level of professionalism that cannot be matched in our industry. We guarantee our products and services.

“Our sincerest apology,” Jeffcom911 said on social media. “We are aware of a Lookout Alert sent out this morning, notifying residents of a shelter-in-place that … may not have impacted (them). We are looking into the case with the vendor. We apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this may have created.”

Je Streeter, Je com911’s interim executive director, said the agency is working with its vendor for Lookout Alert, which is the agency’s emergency noti cation system, to determine whether it was technology or human error that sent noti cations to 160,000 people throughout the county rather than to residents in a speci c area.

e call informed residents that Lakewood police had issued a shelter-in-place order because of an incident at 17th and Robb Street.

“ is was very unfortunate,” Streeter said. “We apologize to everybody

“If this had been something like a Marshall Fire, people who are out of town could have made arrangements,” he said.

According to a Je com911 social media post: “We know we can’t make up for any sleep lost last night, but we hope you sleep a little better tonight knowing the glitch you experienced has been xed, and the suspect (in Lakewood) was apprehended safely.”

Lee Begin, who graduated from Mines on Dec. 16, attended the watch party with family members and friends were in town for his graduation.

He’s had classes with several of the football players, and went to high school with junior linebacker Adrian Moreno.

“It’s fun rooting for your friends and watching them succeed,” he continued.

While it was strange to see the crowds huddled around the TVs inside, rather than outside like usual, Golden Mill co-owner Don Martin said the venue was “the closest you can get to McKinney, Texas” in terms of Oredigger spirit.

He hoped to see Mines fans back at the Golden Mill soon, to cheer on all the Oredigger teams, including football next fall.

Je co proposes $32 million in building upgrades to accommodate students from closing schools

BY YESENIA ROBLES CHALKBEAT

Je co Public Schools is beginning work on up to $32 million of projects to prepare buildings to receive as many as 2,600 displaced students from 16 schools closing.

e more than a dozen projects planned include renovating buildings to accommodate preschoolers and students with disabilities or adding more space for the increase in students.

e price tag is equivalent to about 2 1/2 years of savings from closing the under-enrolled elementary schools at the end of the school year. Most of the work is expected to be completed this summer.

Last week, school board members expressed shock at hearing the $32 million price tag, and ursday decided they might downsize some of the larger projects once they have more accurate enrollment projections for the next school year.

e district assured the school board that it expects to be able to cover the cost of those projects with $12 million the board had already agreed to set aside from bond money for such work, and with the savings of about $17 million in bond projects that will no longer hap-

pen at schools that are closing. e district also expects the projects to likely come in under the estimated $32 million, which includes conservative contingency costs.

District leaders told the board that the project costs are onetime expenditures, and that the district will still see ongoing savings from closing those 16 schools.

“ e consolidation decisions that this board had the courage to make are ongoing and cumulative savings that we will be able to eventually, once we get things settled with the budget, apply to our kids’ extraordinary experiences,” superintendent Tracy Dorland told the board at last week’s board meeting.

e district expects to save $12 million in operating expenses every year after those 16 schools close.

“ is decision pays for itself and then some,” chief nancial o cer Brenna Copeland said.

e school board ursday night considered pausing some of the work due to the cost and uncertainty about the need, but decided that it didn’t want to risk not having enough space for students when school starts next fall.

Instead, it approved contracts to

CAG Thrift

& Food Pantry

As the temperatures drop and inflation continues to rise, the importance of the CAG Food Pantry is more important than ever. To provide the funding needed for the increase in food supplies and growing number of families seeking food assistance (60% increase) the CAG hosted their second “Shop for a Cause” on a beautiful October Saturday afternoon. Shoppers were able to buy good quality branded clothing donated by the Golden community while enjoying the bluegrass music of the Back Yard Grass band. The event generated more than $3,400 in operating funds that will be used to buy food to supply the food pantry. “With food prices increasing so much, the need for our pantry has been growing every month, and the proceeds of the boutique sale will make a huge impact in letting us serve more people and offer more types of food,” said Executive Director Kelly Ivan.

In addition to the shopping, guests enjoyed beverages provided by several local small businesses: Miners Saloon, Golden City Brewery and High Altitude Kombucha!

The CAG team is very appreciative of the many volunteers, sponsors and guests who made this fun afternoon a great success. Stay tuned for more exciting news about our Christmas Under the Tree event coming soon.

VOICES

Ring in the new year with fireworks or skating

Yes, Christmas is just around the corner and I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone who celebrates it a very merry Christmas this year. We’ve had a couple of di cult ones over the last couple of years, so I hope this season is happy and bright.

Of course, that also means that you have about a week to gure out what you are going to do on New Years Eve. is year you can feel a little bit more comfortable going out for the evening and all of you already know that pretty much every restaurant, hotel, bar, nightclub and social club has some kind of celebration going on that climax with a countdown to midnight. en there’s the television specials, most of which highlight New York’s Times Square ball drop at some point and for those with younger kids, planning an early countdown with the family is already on your radar.

ere’s not a whole lot of new ideas, but one exciting tradition will be happening again this year that can accommodate those who love to wait until midnight as well as those who need to make an early night of it. at’s the reworks on Denver’s 16th Street Mall. ere will be two shows, one at 9 p.m. and another at midnight to ring in the

New Year plus the Mall will be lined with DJs playing music from 8 p.m. to midnight that through the magic of technology will be synching up together for the background music to the reworks displays.

It’s a pretty big production, so if you would like to go down there this year, you might want to check out the City of Denver’s website for all the details including light rail schedules and parking ideas. Just go to downtowndenver.com/event/ nye reworks. You’ll nd out all you need to know there.

But, there are some other alternatives right in our backyard that are worth consideration for both New Year’s Eve and day. I mean seriously, we live in Colorado, one of the prime winter wonderlands on the planet. New Years is one of the few holidays in the Winter that pretty much everyone has the day o and doesn’t have a load of timeconsuming obligations attached to it. is is theone that you might want to plan on getting out of the house with friends and family to

do something that starts some kind of annual tradition that you can do every year together.

One thing that comes to mind is ice skating on a lake. It doesn’t really matter if you are any good at it or not, just getting outside and giving it a try is a lot of fun in itself and permanently puts that classic image of you and your kids doing something from a picture book in that memory bank that you can smile and laugh about in the future.  e best place to do that is with our neighbors to the west at Evergreen Lake. If you haven’t ever gone ice skating there, this is a “must do” experience you really need to try. ere’s the Lake House there and it o ers skate rentals plusco ee, hot chocolate and snacks from Muddy Buck’s co ee shop. In addition to that, you can participate in broomball (if you don’t want to skate) and outdoor hockey. ey have things going on all winter, including ice skating lessons for kids.

But there are some special plans for New Years Eve. e lake will be open from 10 a.m.-8 p.m. for skating, and there will be food trucks, re pits, glow sticks as well as a DJ playing tunes. Skate rental, s’mores and hot chocolate will be included with admission and there will be broomball and hockey pick-up

Corvids: Redefining “birdbrain”

In 1963, Jane Goodall stated, “In modifying a natural object to make it suitable for a speci c purpose — the chimpanzee has reached the rst crude beginnings of tool making.” Her discovery of chimpanzees fashioning termite shing poles from sticks changed the way scientists thought of humankind’s superiority. Weren’t only humans capable of crafting tools?

Move over, primates! Despite the lack of ngers, certain songbird species have demonstrated the ability to create tools and solve complex problems, in some instances surpassing the capabilities of apes and young children.

e family of Corvidae, which include ravens, crows, magpies and jays has demonstrated superior analytical abilities, deep emotional capabilities, engagement in play and trickery and remarkable language skills.

Researchers recorded more than 64,000 raven vocalizations from 37 raven pairs. According to crow musicologist Eleanor Brown, each family of crows has its own vocabulary of sounds, some which they share with other groups but many are distinct. By comparison, an average 3-year old child’s vocabulary consists of 1,000 words.

Corvids use their ability to mimic sounds and conduct pranks seemingly for their own amusement.

INSIDE THE OUTDOORS

In one instance, a zookeeper reported that magpies would visit the zoo and mimic the voice of an employee who fed the chickens. e chickens would rush to the eat the food, and though the magpies repeated the trick many times, the hapless chickens never gured out the prank.

Reportedly, the ravens at the Tower of London will squawk “keep the path!” to tourists, and in Evergreen, Steller’s jays have been observed mimicking red-tailed hawks, perhaps to ru e the feathers of their avian neighbors?

Laboratory and eld studies of crows’ analytical abilities continue to impress researchers. e biggest problem-solving incentive for the birds involves food rewards.

In Japan, crows were observed picking walnuts from nearby trees and then dropping them in front of cars while tra c lights were red. When the lights turn green, the nuts were cracked as the cars drove

Dealing with grief during the holidays

CU Nursing faculty explain the complexities of grieving, and how to help

BY BOB MOOK SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Between gatherings with friends and family — and the “expectation” of joyfulness — the holiday season can be fraught with stress, even in the happiest of times. For those grieving the loss of a loved one, a broken relationship or a career setback, the season can be especially challenging.

One thing is for certain: ere is no right way or wrong way to grieve, according to University of Colorado College of Nursing Assistant Professor Heather Coats and Associate Professor of Clinical Teaching Kerry Peterson.

Dr. Coats has more than 20 years of clinical experience in palliative, oncology and hospice care. Her research focuses on improving quality of communication and the psychological-social-spiritual well-being of people living with serious illnesses, as well as their families.

Dr. Peterson is the specialty director of CU Nursing’s Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Program. She has worked clinically with patients who are struggling with many types of grief, with an emphasis on psychotherapy and interventions for individuals who have experienced trauma and abuse.

Here are their thoughts about dealing with grief this time of year:

At Oxford University, researchers established a captive colony of New Caledonian crows. In one experiment, a crow named Abel ew o with a hooked wire, the only tool in the room that was designed to allow access to food, leaving his friend Betty with only straight wires.

In a ash, Betty picked up a straight wire, stuck one end of the wire under a piece of tape at the base of the experiment apparatus and using her bill and body weight, she pulled the wireand bent it into a hook. Triumphantly, Betty negotiated the remaining challenges and successfully retrieved her food reward after

host or participate in gatherings and traditions with the expectation that everybody should be happy. For those and other reasons, one might think that grief would become more exacerbated, but it’s a year-long phenomenon. Still, the absence of certain loved ones might be especially noticeable in the days from anksgiving through New Year’s Day.

“Grieving is a process,” Coats says. “Part of the process is recognizing what the triggers are. Maybe your loved one died in summer — so, the onset of summer is the trigger. Maybe your loved one died at Christmas, so that’s a trigger. But grief is not something that should be considered or thought about only during the holidays.”

Peterson points out that people have their own unique grief experiences. Even though a family might be grieving the same loved one, one person might feel extreme sadness while another might still experience a sense of joy and happiness during this special time.

Acknowledge your feelings

In the holiday season or any other time of the year, Coats and Peterson say that dealing with grief requires a large measure of self-forgiveness and self-care as well as understanding and setting boundaries. Allowing yourself to “feel your feelings” is an important part of grieving.

“ ere needs to be a recognition that the holidays create a lot of hustle and bustle,” Coats says. “But that doesn’t mean you take away the grief and put the hustle and bustle in its place so that you live in denial that the grief is there. Don’t let the hustle and bustle not allow you to grieve.”

Peterson encourages people who

are grieving to reach out and get support, so that they can experience the holidays in di erent ways — perhaps by establishing some new traditions.

“Sometimes it might be too painful, but people who are grieving can still nd comfort in keeping traditions or creating new ones to honor the memory of their loved one — such as lighting a candle or playing a favorite Christmas song,” she says. “Lean into whatever it is that harkens to things that once brought you joy with the beloved, instead of pushing it away and not thinking about it.”

In dealing with longer-term grief, Peterson recommends grief support groups because they let the bereaved connect with others who are experiencing a loss. She adds that psychotherapy and prescription medications could help those who experience prolonged grief that leads to isolation and severe depression. e latest edition of DSM-5 (the diagnostic manual used by mental health professionals) added “prolonged grief disorder” as a diagnosis earlier this year, making it easier for clinicians to identify and diagnose people who need treatment and support.

Support those who are grieving

Not everyone is at the same point in their grieving journey. If you are further along in processing grief than your friends and family, Peterson says you can best support others by asking what you could do to help and not making assumptions.

“You probably shouldn’t assume a friend isn’t ready to go to a party because she just lost her husband,” she says. “It might be helpful for her to continue with activities and social connections.”

Coats maintains that because grief is di erent for everyone, it is important to be “cued in” to friends and families during the holidays and beyond.

“It’s important to allow someone the space to grieve and to know that they are sad and missing someone,” she says. “It is also important to pick up on the cues that allows people to continue processing. e holidays can be a really healing space — so long as someone feels acceptance for that grief.”

Drs. Coats and Peterson discussed the new diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder in the Five to rive Podcast in September 2022.

asylum-seeker

BY ROBERT TANN COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Amid turmoil, a single mother strives to nd community in the Denver metro area after leaving hers behind

In late 2018, a woman now raising her daughter near Denver made a life changing decision. She would leave her home country of Venezuela, a choice she did everything she could not to make.

e woman, a single mother in her mid40s, had been enjoying an ambitious life of public service with a career that began in the government’s transportation department when she was barely 19. She went on to become a nurse, a lawyer, a radio host and eventually to teach at the college level.

A threat on her life changed everything.

“I didn’t choose to leave until I had a gun pointed to my forehead,” she said, recounting the day military o cers broke into her home and threatened her life. “I fought hard not to try to move to Colorado. It was really, really hard.”

Having seen “so many injustices, so many inequalities” in her country, the woman charted a path of helping others. But the rise of Nicolás Maduro, Venezuela’s president since 2013, altered her trajectory. She viewed Maduro’s government as a brutal regime and spoke out against it, attending protests and using her platform as an educator to call attention to human rights abuses that have beendocumented by United Nations investigators.

at is how she became an asylum-seeker in Denver – one of thousands of immigrants in the area who’ve ed their home country, fearing for their safety.According to TRAC Immigration, a database of federal immigration data compiled and published by Syracuse University, Denver’s immigration court reviewed 2,875 applications for asylum between scal years 2018 and 2022.

As she currently awaits a court’s verdict on her asylum, which will determine her legal status in the United States, the single mom has found some security. In 2020, she and her daughter, who is middle school-aged, received temporary protected status — a form of legal protection which allows some immigrants to live and work legally in the U.S. but which must be renewed every two years. Venezuela isone of 15 countries designated for this protection by the federal government.

According to Violeta Chapin, clinical professor of law at the University of Colorado Law School, the protection is meant for those living in the U.S. facing situations that make it “impossible for individuals of that country to return back.” ose with this protection “have no immigration status, they’re just protected from removal for a temporary period of time,” Chapin said.

It means until a decision is made on her asylum case, the woman remains in a legal limbo, according to Chapin. If she is granted asylum, it a ords her more access to the social safety net along with greater work opportunities. If she is denied, she can still hold on to her temporary status and seek to renew it over the coming years, but she will not be recognized as an immigrant and could face deportation if her status is not renewed.

“ e United States immigration system is extraordinarily restrictive,” Chapin said. “It’s set up to make it very di cult to lawfully enter and live in the United States.”

‘Who was going to trust me?’

e days leading up to the woman’s departure from her home country were a desperate blur. As threats on her safety escalated, a colleague living in Denver reached out to help. Her son, in his mid-20s, ed to Peru on foot, where he lives today.

Before leaving, the woman sold everything she owned, including her car, for about $1,300. With enough money in hand to ee, she ew to Denver with her daughter and another resident who was living in their former apartment complex.

Of the few possessions she brought with her was a binder full of her credentials. Degrees. Licences. Awards and honors.

With her career experiences, she had hoped to buoy her survival in America and secure a good-paying job to support her family. But within days, doubt began to set in.

“Who was going to trust me,” she said. “I felt seen as an intruder, but I had so much to o er.” e colleague who o ered help found them an apartment to rent in the Denver suburbs. He put his name on the lease because she lacked the paperwork to get one on her own and charged her $900 for a deposit.

But after 10 days, they were all kicked out. Her colleague had become emotionally and mentally unstable, she said. e neighbor who had own to the U.S. with her decided it was time to part ways and has not been seen since, the single mom said.

It was December and the days were becoming shorter, darker, colder.

“It was the middle of the winter with a little kid, I didn’t know what to do,” the woman said. “I’m running out of money, but I cannot go back to Venezuela.”

Solace came when she turned to her daughter’s school district, where she had enrolled her daughter in a middle school while they were housed. A parent of one of her daughter’s friends o ered them temporary stay at their home while she looked for a new apartment.

Public schools have been a crucial pillar of support for undocumented residents, according to Chapin.

at’s thanks to a 1982 Supreme Court ruling, Plyer v. Dow, which prohibits public school districts from denying enrollment to the children of undocumented immigrants.

With a temporary roof and place to sleep, the single mom knocked on door after door wherever she saw an apartment available, worried that she was overstaying her welcome.

But deposits for every apartment she found were

$1,000 or more, nearly eclipsing what money she had saved. And “everyone asked for papers,” she said, of which she only had a passport.

“What really surprised me, now looking back, is the lack of solidarity, the lack of empathy for people,” she said. “I was not here because I wanted to. I had to run away.”

Some relief came when a friend living in Miami sent the woman cash for a deposit. With it, she found a studio apartment outside Denver that a landlord allowed her to lease. ough rent was about $1,000 per month, she cut a deal with the landlord for $200 o in exchange for her cleaning the outside of the building. Her deposit was $1,300. She said she couldn’t have been more grateful.

“All I had was my word, and he took it,” she said.  e woman had no access to safety net programs like SNAP, formerly known as food stamps, so she turned to a nearby church for nourishment. Whatever money she had left from the month would sometimes go to a toy for her young daughter. e woman said she was determined to provide whatever momentary escape she could for her.

But the fear of losing everything, of coming up a few dollars short for her rent, always loomed large for her. It still does.

‘Thousands, millions’ living in uncertainty

When the single mother applied for asylum in 2019, she could not a ord a lawyer to help with her case, though she has since found voluntary legal aid.

Chapin said U.S. immigration courts do not provide free public defenders for asylum-seekers. And whether an applicant has a lawyer or not can make a huge di erence in the outcome of their case, Chapin said, with most asylum cases being denied.

According to the Syracuse University database, of the more than 5,000 immigrants who applied for asylum through Denver’s immigration court between 2001 and 2022, more than 2,900 were denied. e

An

single mom does not know when her case will be decided.

“ ere are a lot of people applying for immigration and asylum bene ts, there’s a lot of stress on the system right now,” Chapin said.

e single mom found some comfort when, in 2020, she and her daughter were granted their protected status. Since then, she has worked “everything, anywhere,” her heavy binder of credentials going unnoticed as she took jobs cleaning hotel rooms and serving food in restaurants.

Even with multiple jobs, the woman said she faced nancial uncertainty as she struggled to pay for housing, food and everything in between.

“You have to take on so many hours to work,” she said. “In this county to survive you need at least two jobs.”

In 2020, she moved to a new apartment, allowing her daughter to be closer to her school. But during the COVID-19 pandemic, her landlord raised rent from $1,050 to $1,350. Again, she moved.

Shortly before 2021, she found a onebedroom apartment in a Denver suburb where she lives today. It is dotted with reminders of home, including her country’s ag hanging in the living room and photos of her son on the wall. She pays $1,200. Her deposit was $500. “I have no ability to save,” she said. “Deposits were a big burden.”

Recently, her income has steadied. She now works at an embroidery shop where she brings in about $2,000 each month. e rest she makes up driving for food delivery services, a job that at least a ords her the opportunity to spend more time with her daughter. ey listen to music on those drives or just talk.

rough all the discord, she said she’s worried most for her daughter’s well-being. When she can she’ll make a homemade meal, something healthy, usually Venezuelan.

For herself, she has gone through some therapy programs after becoming depressive and anxious. She does not want her daughter to feel the burden of her mental health, she said. What she wants more than anything now is to make a home where she can, for herself and her child.

Chapin said the woman’s story of survival is the same as “thousands, millions of immigrants, who live this existence every day.”

To build something beautiful e asylum-seeker said she is still waiting for the hard work to pay o , to see the “end of the tunnel.” But beyond just surviving, she wants to thrive.

“ e time that I’m supposed to be here in the United States is to build something beautiful, is to give something back,” she said. “A home is love, work, dedication, solidarity.”

She is currently taking online classes through Metropolitan State University of Denver in social communications, hoping to use the education to land a job in social work and reignite her passion for building community.

ough she has seen growth in her English skills over the past four years, she wants to take college classes to improve her prospects of a career. e most inexpensive course she found was about $6,000 per semester at the Community College of Denver — too much for her to spend currently. at money instead goes to rent.

While the change in her living situation has “been night and day,” she said it’s precarious. It would only take a rent increase of about $200 for her to no longer be able to a ord her apartment, she said.

“I’m living in the present right now and that’s all I can a ord to think about,” she said. “Yes, I can only pay so much and yes, we are in a very tight budget. But, I get to spend quality time with my daughter … we only have each other.”

According to Chapin, there are numerous reforms to U.S. immigration policy that could bene t residents living in uncertainty. About 11 million immigrants are undocumented in the U.S., Chapin said, and sta ng issues have left immigration courts across the country backlogged. For many immigrants, it can mean years waiting for a decision on their future.

Even with temporary protected status, many still face low-wage jobs as their only choice for employment. It is di cult for immigrants to translate credentials they earned in their home country to work in the U.S., Chapin said, and doing so comes at a large nancial cost.

Allowing immigrants to use their qualications to work more skilled jobs and authorizing citizenship for most of the 11 million already here “would bene t the economy tremendously,” Chapin said, given the U.S. is “desperate for labor.” is need has been a major driver behind the immigration reform championed by U.S. Rep. Jason Crow, who represents Colorado’s 6th congressional

district.

“We have a lot of people in Colorado who’ve immigrated from all over the world who have some substantial skills,” Crow said, “and it takes a long time to translate those licenses and certi cations.” is fall, Crow helped introduce the bipartisanBridging the Gap for New Americans Act, which passed in both chambers of Congress before President Joe Biden signed it into law Oct. 17.

Over the next year, the legislation will direct the U.S. Department of Commerce to study how it can expedite translating out-of-country credentials. Crow said the ndings will likely spur more legislation to overhaul the process and allow immigrants more access to higher-wage professions.

“ ey can buy homes, they can enter our economy more fully, they can send their kids to college,” said Crow, who added this would be crucial to “addressing the sustainable workforce shortage in our country.”

But beyond the potential economic impacts, Crow said immigration reform is a “moral issue.”

“When the current laws and systems don’t treat people with basic dignity and respect, that alone is the reason to reform and change this,” he said, adding he is “optimistic” of bolder immigration legislation still to come.

For immigrants like the single mom in Denver’s suburbs, she is determined to build on her new life as she strives to nd what she loved most about her home: a sense of belonging. Often her mind wanders to her home country, to what she’s left behind. She talks every day on the phone with her son in Peru, who’s made a family of his own with his partner and their child.

Clasped safely in the folds of her heavy binder, amid her many certi cations and credentials, is a letter from him.

It reads: “ ank you so much for everything you’ve given me and taught me throughout life. It hasn’t been an easy road for both of us, I know, but it’s been worth it. I will try to prove myself to you for the rest of my life, you’ve done a good job.”

IMMIGRATION DESIGNATIONS

The United States has numerous designations for a person’s immigration status, each with its own caveats that dictate the legality of what a person can and cannot do. Here are what some of these statuses mean according to immigration lawyer and law professor Violeta Chapin:

Refugee: Refugee status is granted to immigrants before they leave their home country. Refugees are authorised to live and work legally in the U.S. and are eligible for safety net programs but cannot vote. Most recently, a large amount of refugees in the U.S. have been from Afghanistan and Ukraine.

Asylum: This is similar to refugee status but is granted to someone after they come to the U.S. Because asylum can take months or years to be processed, some immigrants have the option of pursuing a temporary status in the meantime to a ord them some legal protections and work authorization.

Temporary protected status: This status is only for people fleeing turmoil from certain countries. Currently, the U.S. has designated 15 countries for temporary protected status. Once granted, it must be renewed every two years and does not allow recipients to be eligible for federal programs, though they can be eligible for some state benefits depending on state law.

Green card: This status, officially called a lawful permanent resident but more commonly known as a green card, a ords immigrants nearly all the benefits and rights as a U.S. citizen with the exception of voting. For asylees, those granted asylum, they must wait one year after receiving asylum to apply for a green card. Green cards typically need to be renewed every 10 years.

Naturalization: The final stage of immigration. With naturalization, immigrants are considered fully legal U.S. citizens and can vote in any and all U.S. elections. This status does not need to be renewed. Asylees can apply for it five years after receiving asylum and will need to pass a civics test to receive this status.

Moms Demand Action asks Je co city councils for more gun regulations

BY ANDREW FRAIELI AFRAIELI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

With the shooting of 19 students and two teachers at a school in Uvalde, Texas earlier this year, many activists have called for more regulations on the requirements to buy a gun. For Jeffco’s Moms Demand Action chapter, it was a motivator for many of them to do the same.

Starting in Wheat Ridge in July and most recently in Lakewood in November, the activist group presented ordinances to city councils across Jefferson County during public comments that they believe will reduce gun violence, like raising the buying age to 21 and 10-day waiting periods.

“We’re not asking city council to ban all guns, we’re trying to carve out places where we can prevent deaths from gun violence, and the research says these are the areas where we can make a bigger impact,” Jeffco chapter of Moms Demand Action President Jen Dill Wohlers said.

Other cities around the metro area have similar ordinances already, she pointed out. Boulder has a 10-day waiting period before being able to buy a gun, as well as banning them in parks or other open spaces — another suggested ordinance from the group.

Boulder County also has largecapacity magazine and semiautomatic weapon bans, but they

are currently being challenged in a lawsuit by Rocky Mountain Gun Owners from August. RMGO was one of multiple parties that voiced opposition during public comment at Lakewood’s Nov. 28 meeting where Moms Demand Action presented ideas on gun regulation ordinances.

“These are the same women who traded their red coats for their red t-shirts,” Taylor Roads, the executive director of Rocky Mountain Gun Owners said. “On behalf of thousands of Rocky Mountain Gun Owners members right here in the city of Lakewood, please never take up gun control here in Lakewood, Colorado.”

According to Wohler, the group did not see as vocal an opposition at other public comments because they hadn’t told other councils beforehand that they’d be speaking.

“We are not anti-second amendment, but we are anti-gun violence,” Wohlers told Colorado Community Media. “We are trying to solve the problem of gun violence by using information that is researched-backed, and evidencebased.”

Tina Francone, a previous Jeffco commissioner from 2019, also spoke at the public comment against Moms Demand Action’s proposed ordinances. She admitted that gun violence also “horrifies” her, and continued by claiming that gun regulation does not work.

“Crimes and violence are com-

mitted by people not in their right mind,” she said. “By definition crimes are not committed by lawabiding citizens.”

Wohler believes that some council members and mayors in Jeffco are open to their ordinances,

acknowledging that it took multiple years for Boulder to adopt what it has. The group intends on following up next year, she said, and request to be on the agenda to be able to speak longer and have a dialogue.

begin the rst project: an addition at Prospect Valley, which is receiving new students from Kullerstrand, including a special needs program.

e board plans to revisit the scope of the contract early next year, when it has enrollment numbers from the rst round of choice applications.

Currently, Prospect Valley is slated to get an addition that includes eight new classrooms, including two classrooms designed for the a ective needs program. e addition is expected to increase the building capacity to 650 students, but currently the district projects the school will enroll around 560 students next year.

If the projection is correct, the current building’s capacity might already be enough, though district leaders cautioned that letting a school reach near full capacity limits how e ectively principals can manage class sizes, especially when the number of students isn’t distrib-

uted evenly per grade level.

Still, some board members weren’t convinced the school needs eight new classrooms.

“Why are we even going that high right now for 650?” said board member Danielle Varda.

Board members also questioned how the district might examine costs to renovate receiving schools when it considers recommendations to close secondary schools next year. At the secondary level, the district has almost nished the planned projects.

Copeland said that although the district has limited funds, o cials already have some ideas where it might get the money for retro tting secondary schools after possible closures. By then, the district might have started selling or leasing some of the empty elementary buildings, making some capital funds available. e district also could use leftover unallocated bond dollars.

District leaders say they don’t yet know what factors they might con-

sider when deciding which secondary schools to close.

With elementary schools, the district closed schools that had fewer than 220 students or were using less than 45% of their building’s capacity, as long as there was another elementary school within 3.5 miles that could absorb the students.

Costs of renovations weren’t calculated until after the 16 schools were identi ed.

e district doesn’t yet know what enrollment or capacity thresholds it would set to close secondary schools, or if it would use di erent factors. Leaders said it was too early to say if building renovation costs could play into the decision.

But Copeland said the district is not interested in making the decisions primarily about money.

District leaders have said that the problem with small schools is that education su ers when teachers have to be responsible for students of multiple grade levels within one classroom, when teachers can’t collaborate with colleagues who teach the same grade level, and when schools can’t o er after-school programs and other enrichment.

“Very consistently, parents told us ‘My student is not a number; please don’t make these decisions based on that,’” Copeland said. “I very much don’t want the nancial calculation to be a primary driver.”

The truth behind the Sand Creek Massacre

rado puts on display the stark truth about how the U.S. federal and state governments mistreated Arapaho, Cheyenne and other Native American tribes — breaking treaty after treaty.

BY BRUCE GOLDBERG SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

ese are the words of Fred Mosqueda, a Southern Arapaho language and culture coordinator who spoke at the late-November opening of the new “Sand Creek Massacre: e Betrayal that Changed Cheyenne and Arapaho People Forever” exhibit at History Colorado.

“ is is the beginning of (learning). It educates you about what an Arapaho or Cheyenne are,” Mosqueda added. “ is is a truthful story, as close as they can put it.”

The Sand Creek Massacre

Con icts between Native Americans and white people worsened as more people migrated West. It led to a tragic confrontation on Nov. 29, 1864, when members of the Colorado Territory militia under the leadership of U.S. Army Col. John Chivington attacked a peaceful village of Cheyenne and Arapaho people who had been promised military protection. More than 230 women, children and elders were killed. e village was located in northeast Kiowa County.

e new exhibit at History Colo-

“As you walk through there, and see the photos and pictures, those are truthful statements from our Cheyenne and Arapaho people,” Mosqueda said.

Listening stations allow attendees to hear oral histories from descendants of survivors of the Sand Creek Massacre. Numerous display boards about the history of the Arapaho and Cheyenne tribes allow people to learn more about their way of living. Additional exhibit highlights include tipis built in Cheyenne and Arapaho styles, Native American clothing and historical documents from investigations of the massacre. Audio guides are available in four languages: Cheyenne, Arapaho, Spanish and English.

A partnership a decade in the making Cultural appropriation “is not solely a story in Denver. It’s an international problem,” said Sam Bock, exhibit developer and historian at History Colorado. “Museums are reckoning with this long history of (taking) the cultures of native tribes, even stealing stu from the tribes.”

History Colorado opened its original Sand Creek exhibit in 2012, but it drew criticism almost immediately. Native Americans were unhappy about not being consulted about its construction and alleged inaccura-

cies. Descendants of survivors of the attack demanded changes to the exhibit. e museum closed the display in June 2012 and started working with Native Americans to produce a new, enhanced exhibit. us, a 10-year partnership between History Colorado and the three tribal nations — the Northern Cheyenne in Lame Deer, Montana; the Northern Arapaho in

Riverton,

“ e Sand Creek Massacre is sacred,” said Gail Ridgely, Northern Arapaho, in a news release. “Historic remembrance, educational awareness and spiritual healing are very important for the Cheyenne and Arapaho people.”

Stuck With Silver: Mines football falls to Ferris State in title game

Bulldogs defeat Orediggers

41-14 to win NCAA Division II National Championship

BY CORINNE WESTEMAN CWESTEMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

While they were hoping to strike gold, the Colorado School of Mines Orediggers will have to settle for silver.

e Mines football team is taking home the NCAA Division II RunnerUp trophy after losing 41-14 to Ferris State in the Dec. 17 title game. e Orediggers, who nish the season 133, were hoping to win the program’s rst national title.

Instead, the 14-1 Bulldogs won their second-straight title, holding the trophy aloft in the McKinney, Texas stadium.

“My boys — my team — never quit, never gave up,” Mines coach Brandon Moore said after the game. “ ose guys, they’re warriors. And I appreciate every single last one of them for what they do every day, for the sacrices they make.”

Starting o on the wrong foot

Right out of the gate, the Bulldogs had the Orediggers o -kilter, scoring a touchdown early and then containing the most explosive o ense in Division II.

Mines senior quarterback John Matocha and his receivers struggled to connect. ey were sti ed by sacks, dropped passes, de ections and su ocating defense.

Meanwhile, at the other end, Ferris State racked up two eld goals and another touchdown. Just before halftime, the Bulldogs had a pick-six to make it 27-0.

At halftime, the Orediggers only had seven rushing yards, 14 passing yards and two rst downs.

Mines seemed to nd some o ensive rhythm in the third quarter and tried to chip away at the de cit. e Orediggers got on the board thanks to a reception by senior running back Michael Zeman, but the Bulldogs responded with a touchdown of their own.

In the fourth quarter, Matocha connected with senior wide receiver Josh Johnston for a 14-yard touchdown pass. However, time was not on Mines’ side, and the Bulldogs seemed content to eat up the clock while driving for another touchdown.

As the clock nally hit zero, Ferris State celebrated its 41-14 victory and second-straight national title.

Overall, the Bulldogs sacked Matocha six times and limited him to 208 total yards and two touchdowns.

“Obviously, Ferris is a phenomenal team and a phenomenal defense with some great players,” Matocha said. “But, o ensively, I think that we just needed to execute a little bit better. I

Empower Field to get a facelift

NFL approves $100M loan

BY TONY GORMAN COLORADO PUBLIC RADIO

After a disappointing season, the Denver Broncos are due for a makeover.

Except this time, it isn’t coming in the form of a new shiny coach or quarterback, but a Mile High upgrade.

eir home, Empower Field at Mile High, is getting a renovation, and the NFL is lending a big hand in making the remodel come true.

e team announced Wednesday that it received more than $100 million through the league’s G-4 nancing program. It’s the largest capital project investment in the stadium’s 22-year history.

“ is signi cant investment in Empower Field at Mile High —- the largest in the stadium’s history — demonstrates the deep commitment by the Walton-Penner Family OwnershipGroup to immediately and continually provide the best possible experience for our fans,”

SILVER

President Damani Leech said in a statement. “As we look toward the future with the long-term plans for our stadium, we are equally focused on the present to ensure Empower Field at Mile High remains a premier sports and entertainment venue.”

e NFL G-4 program allows NFL teams to receive assistance for stadium projects. e funding from the program is considered a loan and is repaid from the visiting team’s share of certain seating. A team applying for the loan is required to put up matching dollars.

e most recent example is the Bu alo Bill’s recent approval of $200 million toward a new stadium. With the loan and owners Ted and Kim Pegula matching the funds, the Bills have $400 million for the $1.354 billion project. Local taxpayers are expected to foot the rest of the bill. For the Broncos, the G-4 loan will cover most of the costs. e Metropolitan Football Stadium District, which levies and collects sales taxes in nancing the stadium’s projects, have already earmarked $12 million toward the upgrades.

McKinney to cheer on the team. Most of the 6,300 attendees were Oredigger fans, stadium o cials estimated.

The road to 2023

While it wasn’t the nish the Orediggers had hoped for, the weekend o ered some smaller victories.

Matocha won the 2022 Harlon Hill Award — the Division II equivalent of the Heisman Trophy — and Zeman added to his career touchdown record during his last game as an Oredigger.

Mines also enjoyed time in the national spotlight leading up to and during the game, which was televised on ESPNU.

Dozens of Mines students were in attendance thanks to a $100,000 donation by the Denver Broncos’ ownership group, and hundreds of alumni and other fans made the trip to

“I want to thank our fans, our alum, and our students for coming all the way down here and supporting us,” Moore said. “We had a great showing, and it was a tremendous opportunity and a tremendous environment that they provided us.”

Oredigger fans have been incredibly supportive throughout the postseason, Matocha added, describing how that’s a big reason why the team made it to the title game. He hoped to return next year and “win it all for them and make them proud.”

Just as the Orediggers built on 2021’s successes this year and cleared the semi nal hurdle to make it to the title game, Moore believed they will build on this year’s historic season and nally take home the gold in 2023.

“We’ve inched a few steps further every year,” he continued. “We came up short this year. But, we’re excited for the future, and we fully expect to

come out and win next year.”

One last ride

A few days before the game, 16 Orediggers celebrated graduation with their teammates and coaches in McKinney. Dec. 17 marked the nal game for the seniors who’ve “poured so much into the program and been so in uential to our underclassmen,” Moore said.

While it was hard to see them end their careers with a loss, Moore wanted them to know that they’ll always be a part of the Mines football family.

Wide receiver Tristan Smith, who played his nal game as an Oredigger Dec. 17, was grateful for all of his experiences and relationships at Mines, both on and o the eld.

He believed the football program was heading in the right direction, saying, “I’m so proud of this team, and so grateful for the support we have at Colorado School of Mines. ... I know they’ll be back (at the championship).”

Central Presbyterian founders prevented a murder and started a tradition

BY KIRSTEN DAHL COLLINS SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

In the summer of 1860, four armed desperadoes invaded the o ces of the newly-launched Rocky Mountain News in Denver, gunning for editor William N. Byers. Luckily for the journalist, two Presbyterians walked in.

Gen. William Larimer, Jr. and Rev. A.T. Rankin merely wanted to place an ad to attract worshippers to a new church. ey ended up in a classic Wild West brawl, during which the preacher and the general managed to get Byers “out of the clutches” of his attackers, according to Rankin’s letters. One villain was shot, two escaped and the fourth was tried and convicted of attempted murder. e resulting publicity got Denver’s Central Presbyterian Church o to a rousing start.

at was the beginning of Central Presbyterian’s e ort to “make Denver a better place,” said Rev. Louise Westfall.

e historic church, at 1660 Sherman St. in North Capitol Hill, has just upgraded itself with a $5.2 million renovation. Most of the remodeling will support Central Presbyterian’s long tradition of community service, which includes the 1916 founding of Presbyterian Hospital — subsequently St. Lukes Presbyterian, then HealthOne.

Ordained in 1981, Westfall is carrying on a family tradition — her sister and father both served in Presbyterian ministries before her.

“After 40 years, I still love it,” she said.

Westfall has led Central Presbyterian’s congregation since 2011, which might have earned the disapproval of John Knox, who founded the sect

during the 16th century Scottish Reformation. e thundering Scottish preacher was no fan of women in leadership roles — but he did introduce the concepts of equality and democracy in worship. Taking Knox at his word, women have been serving as pastors in Presbyterian congregations since 1954.

An architect’s masterpiece

Central Presbyterian was designed in 1892 by architect Frank E. Edbrooke and is “counted among (his) masterpieces,” according to the Denver Architecture Foundation’s website. e red sandstone building bears a strong resemblance to the Brown Palace Hotel a few blocks away, which dates from the same year. Both buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places and both feature spectacular stained glass. Abstract patterns of amber and violet shed golden light over the church interior, reminiscent of the glow from the hotel’s famous stained-glass atrium.

Begun in 2020, during the quiet days of the pandemic, the church’s renovation has restored some original features and added 21st century improvements. Westfall points to multiple new restrooms, a new elevator, a new children’s playroom and a remodeled annex from the 1950s, which will soon become a co ee bar. In a small chapel o the narthex — also known as the lobby — dark paneling was stripped away to reveal more of those amber stained-glass windows. A re-imagined basement level includes rehearsal space and the Heritage Center, a small museum of church and Denver history, which are closely intertwined.

A beehive of community service e modernization was crucial because Central Presbyterian is no empty monument to the past. e

The church continues to ‘make Denver a better place’

New Genesis, which occupies part of the vast basement and has a separate entrance, provides transitional housing and other services to people experiencing homelessness.

In the church’s Sherman Street annex, Purple Door Co ee will soon open its doors to the public. e co ee roaster provides on-the-job training and support to unhoused young people. And the arrival of Purple Door brings an added bene t. “Finally, no more church basement co ee,” Westfall said.

Interiors inspired by a grand Denver theater It’s no accident that performing artists

feel at home at Central Presbyterian: the interior design was heavily in uenced by Denver’s long-vanished Broadway eater, where artists such as Sarah Bernhardt once performed. According to the Denver Architecture Foundation, the grand old theater — which provided a temporary home to Central Presby-

terian’s swelling congregation during the 1880s — inspired such features as “banked curved seating, box seats and side balconies, corner replaces, theater-quality acoustics and sightlines.” Even the narthex with its long curving wooden bar suggests a touch of showbiz.

In 2016, Denver Philharmonic made Central Presbyterian even more theatrical when it helped build an expansive stage in the sanctuary. ese days, all types of music ll the hall, with 20 different musical groups performing 40 concerts there every year.

“Most churches will have a at surface for the pews but …. these are banked up so you can see the stage from all of the seats,” said Denver Philharmonic’s executive director, Valerie Clausen. “It’s just the right feel for our audience. We play serious classical music, but we want more of a casual, warm and welcoming feel.”

Other groups that regularly make music at Central Presbyterian include the Denver Women’s Chorus, the Denver Gay Men’s Chorus and the East High School choirs.

During December, there will be many holiday concerts at the church, including Voice Rock Winter Concert on Dec. 11 and the Denver Philharmonic Orchestra’s “Merry Little Christmas” concert on Dec. 16 and 17.

It’s a busy time of year, but the pastor is accustomed to hubbub.

“Providing community space is part of Central’s mission,” Westfall said.

This past November, Denver Women’s Chorus kicked o their 2022-23 season with the concert, “My Body, My Voice,” performed in the sanctuary of Central Presbyterian Church. Theater design influenced many features of the hall, including raked seating, side boxes and side balconies.

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS

The Arvada Housing Authority (AHA) invites developers of property in Arvada, CO to submit proposals for participation in the Housing Choice Voucher Project Based Voucher Program (PBV). The objectives of this allocation are to 1) Expand housing options for low-income individuals and families with special needs 2) To preserve affordable housing, for low-income individuals and families with special needs that are at risk of being eliminated due to lack of a funding source 3) To increase the supply of affordable housing for individuals and families who are chronically homeless and 4) To increase the supply of affordable, accessible housing for person with disabilities.

If applicable, all financing of project costs and operating expenses will be the responsibility of the owner. Rents that are established for the project will be commensurate with other comparable rents for similar rental units in the areas in which the project is located. In all cases, however, rents cannot exceed the maximum allowable HUD Fair market Rent published for Jefferson County.

The PBV units will be leased to eligible low-income households referred by AHA or to eligible tenants in occupancy of the unit at the time of the submission of the proposal. Rental assistance is available for a total not to exceed 18 units. AHA reserves the right to award less than the maximum vouchers available or requested.

Note: Participation in the PBV Program requires compliance with Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity Requirements, and Federal Labor Standards will apply to eligible projects.

Proposal documents can be obtained from the Arvada Housing Authority’s website: Website: https://arvada.org/residents/city-neighborhoods/ section-8-housing-choice-voucher-program

Public Notice

District Court

Jefferson County, Colorado 100 Jefferson County Parkway, Golden, CO 80401

In re the Parental Responsibilities concerning:

Petitioner: Luis R. Torres and Respondent: Candace R. Miller Party: Luis Torres address Phone Number: E-mail: cameronluis08@aol.com Case Number: 22DR966

ALIAS SUMMONS FOR ALLOCATION OF PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITIES

To the Respondent named above this Summons serves as a notice to appear in this case.

If you were served in the State of Colorado, you must file your Response with the clerk of this Court within 21 days after this Summons is served on you to participate in this action.

If you were served outside of the State of Colorado or you were served by publication, you must file your Response with the clerk of this Court within 35 days after this Summons is served on you to participate in this action.

You may be required to pay a filing fee with your Response. The Response form (JDF 1420) can be found at www.courts.state.co.us by clicking on the “Self Help/Forms” tab.

The Petition requests that the Court enter a Order addressing issues involving the children such as, child support, allocation of parental responsibilities, (decision-making and parenting time), attorney fees, and costs to the extent the Court has jurisdiction.

Notice: Colorado Revised Statutes §14-10-123, provides that upon the filing of a Petition for Allocation of Parental Responsibilities by the Petitioner and Co-Petitioner, or upon personal service of the Petition and Summons on the Respondent, or upon waiver and acceptance of service by the Respondent, an automatic temporary injunction shall be in effect against both parties until the Final Order is entered, or the Petition is dismissed, or until further Order of the Court. Either party may apply to the Court for further temporary orders, an expanded automatic temporary injunction, or modification or revocation under §14-10-125, C.R.S.

A request for genetic tests shall not prejudice the requesting party in matters concerning allocation of parental responsibilities pursuant to §14-10124(1.5), C.R.S. If genetic tests are not obtained prior to a legal establishment of paternity and submitted into evidence prior to the entry of the final order, the genetic tests may not be allowed into evidence at a later date.

Automatic Temporary Injunction – By Order of Colorado law, you and the other parties: 1. Are enjoined from molesting or disturbing the peace of the other party; and 2. Are restrained from removing the minor child(ren) from the state without the consent of all parties or an Order of the Court modifying the injunction; and 3. Are restrained, without at least 14 days advance notification and the written consent of all other parties or an Order of the Court, from cancelling, modifying, terminating, or allowing to lapse for nonpayment of premiums, any policy of health insurance or life insurance that provides coverage to the minor child(ren) as a beneficiary of a policy.

If you fail to file a Response in this case, any or all of the matters above, or any related matters which come before this Court, may be decided without further notice to you.
