Biden touts need for bolder response to climate change President visited NREL lab in north Jeffco on Sept. 14

However, perhaps the biggest issues related to the overall increase

“Folks, we’ve got to pick up the pace.”

That was President Joe Biden’s message as he spoke Sept. 14 about his plans to address climate change while creating new jobs during a visit to the National Renewable Energy Lab’s Flatirons campus, located north of the Rocky Flats Wildlife Refuge in Jefferson County.

During his roughly 15-minute speech, Biden touted the need for the federal government to establish more ambitious goals for reducing emissions and addressing climate change than were set even by the Obama administration, in which he served as vice president.

“When those (goals) were set, we had more time,” said Biden. “We don’t have that time now. The goals are different because the necessity is there … We don’t have much more than 10 years, for real.”

Among the new goals set by Biden is for the nation to reach 100% carbon-free power by 2035. Biden said he also recently announced a new target for the country to reduce its carbon emissions by between 50 and 52% by 2030.

Biden said the need to take bolder, more aggressive steps to address

New subdivision moving forward at C-470 and Quincy 286 homes to be built at C-470 and 285

BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A plan to build 286 homes near the interchange of C-470 and Highway 285 is moving forward after the Jefferson County commissioners

approved a plat for the site on Sept.

14.

Last month, the commissioners unanimously voted to rezone a 37.4-acre property located just to the west of West Quincy Avenue and Turkey Creek Road on which developer Remington Homes was proposing to construct the development, which it is calling the Three Hills subdivision.

That vote came after a multi-hour

MY NAME IS

ANDREW TERRILL

WHERE TO FIND THE BOOK

Golden graphic designer revisits 7,000-mile journey across wilderness of Europe in new book

Andrew Terrill’s book “The Earth Beneath My Feet” covers the first half of his journey across Europe. It is available now through Amazon and local bookseller websites.

A second book, titled “Sacred Ground” and covering the second half of the journey, will be released in June.

A love of adventure I grew up in the suburbs of London and I had an amazing childhood there. But when I became a young adult, I never found purpose and meaning in suburban life. I felt called to the mountains and hills of Britain and going on long walks into the mountains was a passion of mine.

So I escaped into trips and the trips grew longer and longer and eventually I wanted to go on a trip that wasn’t just a walk it was a way of life.

WELCOME SIGN

A revelation When I was 23, I was on a weeklong hike in the Alps and managed to fall down a mountain. I should probably not have been able to walk away from it or even breathe after it. Doing that completely changed my perspective on life. I realized that life is a fragile thing that you shouldn’t waste and that you should really do what you want to do.

Then I was thinking about European mountain ranges that I could possibly hike and I thought about the Appenines, which stretch the length of Italy. But I was also thinking about Norway, which has a mountain range that extends the length of the country. And then I was sitting there and I thought `why don’t I walk them both and join them together?’

Journey of the lifetime At first, I decided to try and find sponsors for the journey which, of course, ended up being a complete and total failure. So eventually I just decided to take that leap of faith and start even though I only had money saved for the six months and trust the mountain gods would eventually reward me for starting. And so part of the adventure was not having the budget to stay in hotels and always staying in the woods.

Andrew Terrill also designed the artwork on the new Golden welcome sign on U.S. 6 just before the turnoff to 19th St. The sign depicts an elk with Clear Creek, North and South Table Mountain and the city of Golden visible behind it.

A big lesson learned The real voyage was finding that belonging and sense of peace in places that were often intimidating and wild and uncomfortable.

The 7,000 miles took me from being intimidated by nature and scared of it to an incredible sense of belonging and connection which ultimately was beyond anything I ever imagined was possible and that I haven’t lost in the 25 years since. I now don’t see a differentiation between nature and civilization, it’s just the world. You can see nature and wilderness in a small patch of sidewalk if you look close enough. That’s an incredible thing to have.

Putting it on the page I always imagined myself writing a book about the journey because I always wanted to share the experience of being in the mountains, which I think is a uniquely human thing. But when I finished the journey I tried writing it but I don’t think I had the skills to do it justice as a writer.

But I think eventually 15 years after, I decided I really wanted to do it. And in writing it I found I did the journey a second time with a depth that added incredible meaning to the original journey and the book is the culmination of that. It’s the youthful exuberance I had at the time, which I tried to keep in the point of view in the book. But it’s also the insights and perspective that I have brought to bear on it which I think seems to be making it work a little more.

BIDEN FROM PAGE 1

climate change has become starkly apparent recently, with nearly one in three American communities being struck by weather disasters in the past few months.

Biden said within the two weeks before his Colorado stop, he had made visits to California, New Jersey and Louisiana, where he surveyed damage from the Caldor Fire and Hurricane Ida. Coloradans, he said, are also becoming increasingly familiar with the effects of disasters driven by climate change.

“Even if it’s not in your backyard, you feel the effects when you turn on the local weather and in addition to the temperature and precipitation you want to know what the local forecast is going to be…” he said.

“You saw the vicious cycle this sum-

mer when heavy rains combined with the burn scar of the 2020 Grizzly Creek fire resulted in mudslides that washed out an entire section of Interstate 70.”

“The bottom line is it’s everywhere,” he later said.

However, Biden also touted the benefits that an increased focus on addressing climate change would bring, including the creation of well-paid, union-backed jobs.

“When I think of climate change, I think jobs,” Biden said.

He said those possibilities are already apparent in Biden’s infrastructure bill, which he said would put 800,000 people to work, including a large portion in work related to addressing the climate crisis.

Biden was introduced by Julian Aguilar, a member of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 68 union of Xcel Energy workers in Colorado.

“Being here at NREL shows the

future of our industry, renewable and sustainable energy…” he said.

“When you see all these new technologies you might think the future doesn’t look much like the past, but one thing the past and the future will have in common is that they be built by unions.”

Xcel Energy is the first utility

in the nation to set a goal of being carbon-free, Biden said.

Gov. Jared Polis also spoke at the event at NREL. He thanked Biden for visiting the facility, which he said is “powering the renewable energy revolution,” and said the state will continue to partner with the Federal government as it works to meet its own goal of using 100% renewable energy by 2030.

“President Biden’s Build Back Better agenda directly helps support the work we are doing here in Colorado, one of the leading states on the clean energy revolution,” Polis said.

Biden, who completed a tour of the NREL foothills facility prior to his speech, praised NREL and said the Build Back Better plan also includes more funding for the lab and similar organizations.

“We’ll be making those breakthroughs in solar wind and storage out of these facilities,” he said.

Want to Boost Your Home’s Appeal? What You Should & Should Not Spend Money On

With our ongoing seller’s market in which right-priced homes sell quickly and often for more than the listing price, do you really need to beautify your home to help it sell better?

The short answer is “Yes.” But don’t get carried away. The agents at Golden Real Estate like to tell sellers that they should only address certain cosmetic issues and what we call “eyesores.” Investing in popular bigdollar improvements or updates isn’t likely to return you more than they cost to implement.

Let’s talk cosmetic fixes first.

For sure, you’ll want to wash the windows and clean your window wells.

In the process, you’ll be removing the window screens. Clean and label them and store them in your basement or garage. Don’t reinstall them until you are under contract. They detract from the views out your windows even if the screens themselves are clean.

Curb appeal (aka first impression) is, of course, highly important. If you have a lawn, you can make it greener pretty quickly with one or two Lawn Doctor visits. If your bushes or trees are overgrown, consider having them trimmed.

How does your front porch look? If it’s looking worn, an investment in fresh paint or stain will pay dividends. Ditto for that wooden deck in the back.

Speaking of the wooden porch and deck, let’s move on to a discussion of eyesores. An “eyesore” is anything that draws negative attention by the prospective buyer. Rotted and/or broken boards

on your porch or deck definitely fit our definition of an eyesore!

Inside your home, there are several potential eyesores that I advise sellers to address. Let’s look at walls, floors, windows and countertops.

If there is damage to the walls, fix it. Our handyman (available only to clients) is an expert at drywall repair, including matching texture. Touch-up and repainting may be called for. Our free staging consultant may advise you specifically about your walls. My current seller in Golden thought their red kitchen should be repainted to a neutral color. I said no, and we still had a bidding war.

Plush and berber carpeting in good condition does not need to be replaced, but if there are ripples in it, it should be stretched, which is an easy and affordable fix. Older shag carpets should, in most cases, be replaced. Wall-to-wall carpeting is one of the more affordable improvements.

If the carpeting is covering hardwood floors in good condition, I’d suggest removing the carpet and refinishing the hardwood if it needs it. Hardwood floors that are already exposed but noticeably worn should also be refinished.

Is there hardwood under that old wallto-wall carpeting? One way to find out is to pull up the far corner of the carpet in a closet. You can push the carpet back down onto the tack strip and no one will be able to tell you had pulled it up.

Just Listed: North Golden Bungalow w/ Carriage House This 1939 stone bungalow at 711 Iowa St. in Golden is shown on pub- $825,000 lic records at 990 square feet, 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath with the same size basement, but that doesn’t reflect a 13’x14’ addition containing a modern kitchen and the extra bedroom and bathroom in the fully finished basement. It also doesn’t reflect the 496-sq.ft. carriage house with 1 bedroom and a 3/4 bath barely visible to the left and beyond the main house in this picture. Currently this property is a rental, drawing income from both the main house and the carriage house, but both long-term tenants are month-to-month, so you could live in one or the other. Although there is no garage, there is substantial off-street and off-alley parking with room to build as big a garage as you might desire in the back. All-in-all, this listing provides a rare opportunity. See more pictures and take a narrated video tour at www.NorthGoldenHome.com. Listed by Ty Scrable, 720-281-6783, it will be open Saturday, 10 to 2. Or call for a private showing.

If you have old single-pane windows, it’s tempting to replace them, and that might be a good strategy in a buyer’s market, but not in our current seller’s market. In this market, people will buy a home with old windows if it is priced right. I’d want to see them in person before making a final suggestion.

What about countertops? Replacing an old Formica countertops with slab granite, Corian, Silestone, concrete or other popular materials would be very expensive, and I don’t recommend it unless the Formica is chipped or scarred and therefore an “eyesore.” There’s a company called Granite Transformations (www.GraniteTransformations.com) that does a remarkable job of covering an existing countertop in place with a granite-based slurry that makes it look like slab granite. I haven’t tried it myself, but I’ve seen homes with their work and was quite impressed.

Window coverings are another cheap fix that can make a big difference. I recently installed cellular blinds I purchased at Home Depot which have no strings — just push up or pull down.

You have probably seen them and love them as Rita and I do. They are cut to width (I suggest 1/2 inch narrower than the opening) and come in different lengths. Prices are quite reasonable, and I installed eight of them in my house in

just an hour or so with nothing more than an electric screw gun.

Bathrooms offer some potential dressing up. First of all, clean the grout in your tub/shower. Consider a new shower curtain. Other suggestions may arise from a personal visit.

One of my favorite affordable improvements in my current home and the one before was to install sun tunnels in dark areas such as a windowless garage or laundry room, or that dark corridor in the middle of your house. A brand name you’ve heard of is Solatube, but we purchased Velux sun tunnels for our houses.

They come in 10, 14 and 22-inch diameters because the joists in your ceiling and roof are either 12, 16 or 24 inches on center. The cost fully installed for ours was well under $1,000 each — so much better and less prone to leakage or hail damage than a rectangular skylight.

Look into installing sun tunnels for your own pleasure, not just to brighten up your home for selling. The more light you can bring into your home the more appealing it will be.

My broker associates and I are happy to walk through your house with you, even if you aren’t immediately ready to list your home, to make suggestions regarding things to fix or leave alone. Our phone numbers are listed below. Call one of us for a free consultation.

2-Bedroom Lakewood Condo Just Listed by Ty Scrable This two-bedroom condo at 1723 Robb $187,000 Street #9 is in an excellent location, with easy access to I-70 and 6th Avenue Expressway, under 15 minutes to Denver and even closer to Golden.

Big Jeffco employers await more info on vaccine mandate Critics argue high overall county vax rate make move unnecessary

BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Businesses across Jefferson County will soon be responsible for verifying that their employees have been vaccinated — and requiring weekly COVID-19 testing for those that are not. That’s because of a new mandate announced by President Biden on Sept. 9 that applies to all companies with at least 100 employees.

But in the days after the initial announcement of the mandate, several of the county’s large employers said they were waiting for more information about how the mandate will work and when it will take effect before making changes to their own internal rules and practices.

Companies await rule Lakewood-based Terumo Blood and Cell Technologies, one of Jeffco’s biggest employers at around 2,300 Jeffco employees, is among the companies where leaders said they are still trying to understand the order.

Senior Vice President Bon Lopez said in an email to Colorado Community Media that his company could not share specific details

WHILE SUPPLIES

related to vaccine mandates.

What it could share, he said, is that the company encourages all of its employees to be vaccinated, has held vaccination clinics at its Lakewood campus and requires both masks and daily temperature checks for its employees.

Lopez said about 68% of Terumo Blood and Cell Technologies employees have received at least one vaccine dose as of Sept. 18. According to county data, about 78% of eligible Jeffco residents had received at least one dose of the vaccine as of Sept.

13.

A representative of the manufacturing company Coorstek, which is headquartered in Golden, also said she did not yet have much to say on the order as the company’s leaders work to understand it.

“We are working internally with our leadership teams as well as with our legal and government affairs departments to monitor the status of the official written record of Biden’s Executive Order and OSHA’s Emergency Temporary Standard,” said a statement provided by Coorstek Senior Director of Global Communications Nancy Fullerton.

“CoorsTek will continue to adhere to the requirements once we have additional details.”

Fullerton also said Coorstek, which employees about 1,300 people in Jeffco according to the county’s economic development corporation, would continue to encourage vaccinations and are following all CDC

MORE ON THE MANDATE On Sept. 9, President Joe Biden announced that the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration was developing a rule that would require all employers with 100 or more employees to ensure all their employees are fully vaccinated or show a negative test once a week. Biden also announced mandates that would apply to all Federal contractor’s workforces and all health providers that accept Medicare and Medicaid (without the option of weekly testing).

OSHA has not yet released the rule and announced when it will take effect. and governmental guidance.

“We are already doing this” When asked for his initial thoughts, Jefferson County Economic Development Corporation President and CEO Jason Tidmore said he was unsure how much the order would impact Jeffco businesses given the county’s already-high rate of vaccination.

“By and large, we are already doing this,” he said. “And so when you look at where we are at, we don’t have a long way that we can really grow our vaccinated population.”

Given that, Tidmore said the mandate felt like “an unnecessary burden” on large Jeffco employers that have already by and large been doing the right things to combat COVID-19. Still, Tidmore predicted that there would be compliance by

Jeffco employers But while many employers that will be subject to the mandate are not yet actively requiring vaccinations among their employees, some had already taken that step.

Colorado School of Mines, which will be subject to a different portion of the mandate requiring vaccinations for all employees of Federal contractors, announced during the summer that it was requiring all employees and students to provide the school with proof they were fully vaccinated by the first day of classes.

However, Mines did allow both students and staff to apply for both medical and religious exemptions.

According to the Mines website, 90% of students and 86% of Mines staff had been vaccinated as of Sept.

10. About 11% of students and 14% of staff had not yet disclosed their status to the school.

As of Sept. 10, there had been 23 cases of COVID-19 on campus since the start of classes.

Vocal critics, proponents But while the companies Colorado Community Media reached out to all said they were looking to learn more and pledged to follow the mandate, some residents expressed a far different reaction.

pandemic is false and refuses to take the vaccine. He said that while he is not currently employed by a business governed by the mandate, he would still refuse vaccination if an employer required it.

“Absolutely, I would,” he said. “I’d quit my job.”

Pomeroy said he also worries about the impact mandates could have on him if he applies for new jobs in the future. Already, he’s had to cancel plans to go to a concert he was looking forward to in Denver after the venue announced it would require vaccination.

Golden resident Julie Ramstetter said she chose to get vaccinated herself but feels the decision to institute a Federal mandate is a bad one at a time when several businesses are already facing employee shortages.

“The attitude of many Americans is they won’t be forced into anything and given a choice they will leave their jobs,” she said in a message to Colorado Community Media.

Other residents, however, think those concerns are overstated.

“It’s important to note that the mandate also says employees can do weekly tests if they aren’t vaccinated — which I think is often overlooked,” said Max Garza. “So, except for the people that just like to make a big about “tyranny” or whatever, this shouldn’t really be a big deal since there is another alternative.”

Utah-based health care group merging with SCL health Platte Valley, Lutheran Medical Center joining Intermountain health

BY STEVE SMITH SSMITH@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

SCL Health, which runs Platte Valley and Lutheran medical centers, and Utah-based Intermountain Health announced their intent to merge on Sept. 16.

When complete — perhaps early next year — the combined non-profit system will employ more than 58,000 caregivers and operate 33 hospitals, and it will operate 385 clinics across six states, according to a press statement.

Linda Jumonville, president and CEO of SCL Health, and Dr. Marc Harrison, CEO of Intermountain Health, based in Salt Lake City, said the merger wouldn’t mean layoffs or changes in available products/

services.

“This merger wasn’t done with a need to cut costs,” Jumonville said.

“We operate efficiently because there is no geographic overlap. I expect very little change, Jumonville other than to accelerate innovative approaches faster.”

“Day to day, we’re going to work to get better with the tools we bring to bear,” Harrison said.

SCL Health is a a faith-based organizaHarrison tion affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church. Intermountain Healthcare has been secular since the original hospitals in the system were donated by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints.

SCL Health will give up its corporate name and overall leadership to the larger Intermountain, but the individual Colorado hospitals such

as St. Joseph and Good Samaritan will retain their names and their religious identity. The Intermountain hospitals will remain secular.

Harrison and Jumonville didn’t promise an absence of increased health-care costs once the new company is in place.

“If you go and look at our track record, objectively speaking, we provide high-quality care at low cost,” Harrison said. “The future is bright. We are getting interest from insurers.

“We have great relations with our payers,” Jumonville added. “They believe we are committed to affordable health care. They are going to think this (the merger) is a good thing.”

SCL requires COVID vaccinations of its employees. Intermountain Health does not. Harrison said the vaccination rate was “north of 80 percent.”

“The public health emergency is over the thousands of people who are not vaccinated,” he said. “Intermountain complies with federal

regulations. We would never leave our patients in a lurch.”

“We’re evaluating what we need to do with respect to the order of the administration” requiring vaccines of businesses with more than 100 employees, Jumonville said.

The press statement said the merged organization will create a model health system to provide high-quality, accessible, and affordable health care to more patients and communities in Colorado, “There aren’t too many times when you can create something so special,” Jumonville said. “Our teams are so aligned. We chose to do this. This is the right thing for our health communities.”

“The pay-provider model, when done right, makes health care affordable,” Harrison said. “Together, we can do more of this.”

Jumonville said there are better ways to deliver health care.

“We need to move more into homes, more into telehealth,” she said. “We need to accelerate it.”

Let’s hear it for the band - and orchestra too!

A conversation with band teacher Ilse Reardon

BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Football, soccer — a lot of fall school activities get a lot of press coverage every year while another pursuit that requires practice, dedication, teamwork and a lot of hard work goes relatively unnoticed — but not anymore.

Band kids, orchestra kids and proud, patient parents rejoice. You are finally getting some of that local paper fall coverage love you so richly deserve.

Each fall a brand-new group of kids becomes eligible to participate in a rite of passage that puts smiles on faces young and old alike — playing in the school band.

The sense of wonder that takes over a child’s imagination as they are introduced to the worlds of brass, woodwinds, strings and percussion is something Ilse Reardon knows well.

As a music teacher in Jeffco, she’s gotten a first-hand look at it every fall for the last 14 years.

But for Reardon, like others who hear the call, the magic of those moments started years before she started teaching.

“I grew up in Wheat Ridge. My parents have lived here since the 1960s. I went to Prospect Valley,

QUITE THE CONDUCTOR Ilse Reardon serves as the director of bands for the following schools: Everitt Middle School Kullerstrand Elementary Maple Grove Elementary Peak Expeditionary School Prospect Valley Elementary Stevens Elementary Stober Elementary Vivian Elementary Wilmore-Davis Elementary Everitt and Wheat Ridge High School,” she says. “I was really excited for an instrument. I was the kid who came home saying I don’t even care what I play, I just want to play something!”

She said once she got signed up to play, she was all in. And by seventh grade she knew she wanted to make music her life’s work.

And work it is. Reardon is based out of Everitt, but currently teaches music at nine Jeffco public schools, teaching two 40-minute classes at each, a few times per week.

“We just sort of roll in and teach and roll out and go to the next place,” she says. “It takes a while to get used to. It’s very physical.

I’m exhausted by the end of the day.”

Reardon says the exhaustion is well worth it because of the energy the kids put into the music and what the music gives them

in return — and it’s not all in the ears.

“There’s a lot of brain research out there that shows learning how to play an instrument really impacts the development of the brain especially at the age we start the kids at in Jeffco,” she says. “During that adolescent stage, playing

actually uses both sides of their brain at the same time and helps develop pathways in the brain.

“I think the information that stuck out to me the most, is that the part of your brain that processes sounds and speech grows by more than 120% larger than somebody who doesn’t play an instrument.”

In fact, studies show that playing an instrument, particularly at a young age, brings a wealth of benefits to the musician.

According to an article in Inc. Magazine, in a University of Montreal study, lead researcher Simon Landry found that musicians have faster auditory, tactile, and audiotactile reaction times. The study also showed musicians are better at integrating inputs from different senses.

Reardon says students who play an instrument also learn a sense of discipline through practice and teamwork.

“One of the things I tell the kids all of the time is that ‘you not practicing or paying attention in any other class doesn’t really impact anybody else. But in band, orchestra and choir, if you don’t practice, it impacts the entire group and we can’t move on without you,’” she says.

She says she tries to communicate the point that everything the band does, it does together — they begin together and end together.

She thinks the group dynamic is one of the most important aspects of learning to play in the band.

“In marching band you’re going to get this sense of team spirit, and in concert band you’ll get some of that too, but in different degrees of intensity.”

In addition to brain development and teamwork, Reardon says there’s the obvious benefit of being creative and the tremendous outlet playing an instrument gives children for getting their emotions out — connecting with each other in a way that’s different and unique.

“You get to be artistic and creative and express things that you can’t always express with words,” she says.

Reardon and Orchestra Teacher, Beth Letendre, take all of the band and orchestra instruments to each of the nine schools where they teach, and let the kids see them up close. They play a tune on each one, to let the budding musicians hear what they sound like.

But they don’t encourage students to choose one instrument over another.

Reardon says the best thing to do is let children choose an instrument they have a bit of aptitude for and something they’ll want to practice with.

“We try to give students an opportunity to try things out because the instrument personality thing — that’s a real thing,” she says.

“There is a personality type that’s attracted to each type of instrument, I think.”

Before the pandemic, Reardon says there was an easy, sanitary

Pool discussion center stage at Jeffco School Board meeting Aging city pool could turn into aqua center for public and students

BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Meyers pool in Arvada is home to five Jeffco school swim and dive teams. In fact, Jeffco Public Schools is one of Meyers’ largest users, with more than 900 Jeffco students swimming there. The problem is the pool is almost 50 years old and is coming to the end of its useful life.

So, the City of Arvada, Jeffco Public Schools and Apex Parks and Recreation are considering joining forces, creating an IGA (intergovernmental agreement) to partner on replacing Meyers with a new North Area Aquatics Facility.

Preliminary cost estimates for the new facility are reported to be between $33-35 million. The partnership agreement currently being discussed calls for joint financing of the project by Arvada and Jeffco Public Schools. Apex would provide oversight and management of the facility, and would also fund operation deficits.

Gordon Reusink, Director of Vibrant Community and City Neighborhoods, presented the proposal to members of the Jeffco School Board earlier this month.

Reusink said plans for the facility include a 50-meter x 25-yard pool

with on-deck seating for 300-400 people. The center will also feature separate warmer water and shallower pools and spectator seating for 800.

Also, in the plan — locker rooms for men, women and officials, as well as universal changing rooms, a mechanical room, lobby and office space.

If approved, the new facility will be built at the site of the current Meyers parking lot, keeping the existing pool open while the new facility is under construction.

Once construction on the new

aquatics center is complete, plans call for Meyers Pool to be demolished and turned into a parking area for the new facility, which is intended to accomodate the increased demand for the newer and larger facility. Additional parking would be built at Warder Elementary (owned by the District).

The IGA would call for Arvada to provide the land for the project and finance 50% of the project expenses through an annual debt service payment.

Arvada would also fund an unspecified majority of the capital

maintenance and replacement plan as project owner.

For its part, Jeffco School District would also provide land for the project (Warder Elementary School property). Jeffco Schools would be the lead agency in financing the project, financing 50% of project expenses through an annual debt service payment. As an equity partner, the District wouldn’t be charged user fees.

New subdivision approved for West 38th Ave Twenty-six new units to be built despite neighbors’ objections

BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A resolution approving a major subdivision at 5725 - 5787 W. 38th Avenue in Wheat Ridge passed by a vote of 5-3 during a Sept. 13 Wheat Ridge City Council meeting.

The resolution’s passing allows project developers to subdivide the property into 26 townhomes in a total of 4 buildings. The townhomes will each be privately owned.

For the second time in the last two weeks, neighbors of Storybuilt’s proposed Judy Townhomes subdivision voiced their opposition to the project during a council meeting.

Several council members who voted to approve the subdivision said they considered it to be a “Use

by Right” issue. The term refers to a property owner’s ability to use their property in a manner con-

sistent with the zoning where the property is located.

In this case, a large portion of the property in question is located on 38th Avenue. Its current zoning designation is MUN (mixed use neighborhood) — allowing a high-density residential project to be built.

Neighbors opposed to the project said it will increase traffic, noise and congestion in the area. The townhomes also encroach into their neighborhood via Eaton Street, which historically was made up of single-family homes.

Current residents worry the development will change the character of the area. They also take issue with changes the proposed project has undergone since it was first announced.

Matt Filippini and his wife moved into the neighborhood two and a half years ago. He said developers lied in a meeting with residents during the early stages of planning. According to Filippini, neighbors were told there would only be 12 units built on the site, with all vehicle access points located along 38th Avenue.

Since then, the number of planned

units has more than doubled. He described the meeting and the look on the faces of his neighbors as they learned about the project.

“Tears, shock and a complete loss for words is what I experienced as the newest and youngest neighbor on the street,” he said. “While zoning may permit this amount of volume and the design, it doesn’t mean it’s the right thing to approve.”

With a lack of entry-level housing in Wheat Ridge, some council members feel this type of development is what the city needs to begin diversifying its housing market.

Council member Korey Stites, District 3, told a story of wanting to buy a townhome with his wife when he was in his early 20s. He said at the time, there was nothing available that wouldn’t have required at least $100,000 in improvements to be habitable.

But with units in the Judy Townhomes subdivision expected to sell for between $550,000 and $750,000, it’s unclear how the project can be looked at as adding to the affordable housing market in the city.

Councilor Rachel Hultin, District

‘While zoning may permit this amount of volume and the design, it doesn’t mean it’s the right thing to approve.’

Matt Filippini, Neighborhood resident

2, summed up her thoughts on the issue by saying she hopes Wheat Ridge residents can be friendly to whoever moves into the townhomes when they’re built.

“The people who buy into these are not the developers,” she said.

“They are going to become our i neighbors.” d a w t c

in population and density the development would bring to the area and the additional vehicles it would generate in an area where traffic is already a significant concern.

In explaining her decision to vote in favor of the rezoning, Commissioner Lesley Dahlkemper said she appreciated that the development would have less of an impact

than what could be built on the property under its previous zoning classification, which allowed for a mix of commercial, agricultural and residential uses, including up to 300 units of housing.

All three of the commissioners praised the developers for listening to and trying to address the concerns raised by residents.

“What I really appreciate is really listening to the concerns that people have, going through them point by point and looking at the things that you are able to address,” said Commissioner Tracy

The commissioners also said that while they understood the concerns about traffic, they felt that existing Colorado Department of Transportation plans to install roundabouts at the interchange of C-470 and Quincy will help to alleviate current traffic problems, even with the additional traffic the development would generate.

That traffic is also projected to be less than the amount that could be generated by the maximum uses allowed under the existing zoning.

VOICES

Hindsight of a 30-year teaching career

was a public school teacher for 30 years. And, for many of those years, I was an outsider in the buildings, from both a mechanical standpoint and a philosophical HITTING standpoint. But, HOME now that the school year is fully underway, and I am occupationally an outsider now, too, please let me share with you some of the things I’ve learned from that perspective.

First of all, Michael Alcorn building-level adults — teachers, staff, administrators — are awesome people. Seriously, you should see some of the brilliant things that I’ve had the privilege to

witness over 30 years. As a whole, the intelligence, dedication, creativity, compassion and humanity that are the day-to-day norms in the buildings I’ve been in are unlike anything I ever imagined they would be. It is truly inspiring.

Some of my favorite people are the teachers and support staff who work with the special needs kids. If you think about the combination of skills required for that job — during the day, teaching students with different and sometimes limited abilities; after hours, nothing but meetings and reams of paperwork — you can understand why they might develop a bit of a dark sense of humor. An awesome lady named Judy taught me that years ago, and it’s held true ever since.

School lesson that *absolutely* translates to the real world: Under-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Supporting the mask mandate As someone who witnessed the havoc COVID-19 raged on ICUs across the state after my dad had to be admitted for multiple strokes, I am very supportive of the Jeffco Public Schools mask requirement. The pandemic stole so much from our kids, including my daughter. From losing a loved one, to economic hardship at home, and missing milestones like prom and homecoming, too many of our kids are suffering mentally and emotionally.

I am a professional suicide prevention trainer and know the mental health impacts of the past year and a half. Losing a teacher or trusted adult to COVID or feeling guilty that they may have spread the virus to a vulnerable person have been devastating on children. This puts them at additional risk of severe mental health issues and suicide.

Getting our kids back in the classroom and among their friends is vital. Wearing masks at school is a small way we can help our kids recover physically and emotionally, while getting back to normal. My daughter works, participates in theater, and thoroughly enjoys time with her friends. Like most young adults, these activities are crucial to her development. Wearing a mask is a key component to doing the things she loves.

I am grateful that the Jeffco Board of Health has made this SEE LETTERS, P15

stand the real power structure of your organization. You would think that in any building, the center of power is the principal — not true.

I’ve had many, many great principals … but hardly any of them ever had a tenure longer than mine, and NONE of them had a tenure longer than their lead administrative secretary. THAT’s where the power lies.

Kids are, mostly, just kids. They don’t change that much. I’ll have a lot more to say about kids next week, but let me just start with that.

Thirty years ago, my biggest complaint was that the kids didn’t do enough work on their own; last year, my biggest complaint was …the same. Come to think of it, I’m pretty sure I didn’t practice as much as I should have when I was young, so…

What has changed a lot is the culture and society around the kids,

and that shows up in the classroom.

Thirty years ago, a young athlete would play football in the fall, basketball in the winter, and baseball in the spring and summer; these days, a young athlete, more often than not, plays one sport all year long, and maybe sprinkles in a second sport just for conditioning. And that same dynamic plays out in the rest of the building, too: many gifted students begin taking Advanced Placement courses as freshmen, and forgo many electives and other activities to focus on getting into their top college. I don’t think that is good or healthy for kids, but that’s the reality these days.

What that means for everybody who has “programs” is that it’s harder to find contributors — that SEE ALCORN, P15

Vote no, no, no

T

he prospect of having to decide how to vote on ballot issues seems to turn some otherwise strong, confident people into jelly.

GUEST Let me make the decisions easy for COLUMN you.

All of this year’s proposals are wolves in sheep’s clothing: Give power to the legislature to appropriate funds? Of course.

Tax marijuana to provide enrichment Linda Rockwell opportunities for low-income children? No-brainer.

Cut property tax rates? Why not?

All three of these measures have been put forth by people whose ideas cannot pass muster in the legislature. They have spent millions of dollars to gather signatures to get them on the ballot. Don’t let them deceive you.

The first is an amendment to the Colorado constitution, so it must have 55% of the vote to pass.

Amendment 78 would take the responsibility for allocating “custodial funds” out of the hands of the state treasurer and the executive branch and give it to the legislature. Custodial funds are defined as those that originate outside the state, and include federal funds and money from legal settlements. What’s wrong with that? One big problem is that

the legislature is only in session for 120 days a year. Money designated for disaster relief, for example, might not be allocated for many months. Or a special session of the legislature, at a cost of about $25,000 per day, might be required.

As near as I can tell, no problems exist with the current system. No money is finding its way into the wrong hands, and no decisions are being made without public input.

As the saying goes, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”

Next up is Proposition 119, a change to state law that only needs a majority to pass. It is the most odious of the three. This law would increase the sales tax on marijuana, drain resources from the public schools, give power to an unelected board, and channel tax dollars to private, uncertified providers.

Because public education is the bedrock of our democracy, we should all be doing whatever we can to make the system better and stronger.

Let’s not weaken it by giving unaccountable private entities control over public money. I’m also opposed because I fear that an increase in the marijuana tax will drive more cannabis users to the black market.

Proposition 120 is brought to you by the same anti-tax, anti-government people as Amendment 78 and was paid for by the same dark money group. Its original aim was to lower residential property assessment rates across the board, but the

legislature intervened after the ballot language was set, so now it will only affect multifamily and lodging properties. This all came about because the repeal of the Gallagher Amendment in 2020 — a good thing — gave the legislature the power to set property tax assessment rates.

The really insidious part of this proposal is the lifting of the TABOR cap to ensure that the state has enough money to reimburse counties for the property tax exemptions available to some seniors and disabled veterans. Current law requires this, so this provision does nothing but give the proponents an opportunity to pull at people’s heartstrings.

The result of its passage will be a decrease in the revenue available to school and special districts, hamstringing local elected boards.

As you prepare to vote, you can have a long session with the Blue Book, which will arrive in your mailbox shortly, is available at online at leg.colorado.gov/ (yellow link at top of page), a short summary at the public education advocacy site a4pep.org, or you can just trust me, and vote no, no, no.

Linda Rockwell moved to Evergreen with her family in 1982. She got involved in local land-use issues in 1984 and in the Democratic Party a few years later. She served as chair of the Jeffco Democrats from 1993 to 1997.

Good government and principled politics remain her passion.

Health care heroes deserve our thanks

efferson County has experienced nearly 50,000 COVID-19 cases. To put that into perspective, one in 12 people in our county have been GUEST infected by COVID-19 at one point COLUMN over the last year and a half. Just like rest of our country, this pandemic has brought fear, uncertainty, sadness, frustration, and anger to our communities. We have faced loss, Tracy Kraft-Tharp grief, and panic in a way that we could have never expected. And as the Delta variant spreads, we must ensure that we continue protecting ourselves and our neighbors to prevent this from ever happening again.

Local ICUs treated hundreds of patients a day, however, Jefferson County adapted and pulled through, and much the reason is our dedicated health care heroes in hospitals, who showed up to work each day and put their own lives on the line to protect and care for all of us.

Our local hospitals and medical staff have always been a cornerstone of health and healing for communities across the nation — the pandemic just made it more apparent than ever. In all the years that I have lived in Jeffco, I have been proud of the services our doctors, nurses, and other hospital staff provide to patients, delivering robust choice and specialty services and allowing access for those who need it. It is one of the main reasons that supporting our hospital systems was a top priority

of mine when I held state and local offices.

What’s more, support for local hospitals does not just mean better care for patients. While, of course, that is what is most important — as we saw with COVID-19 — it also means more support for the community. Hospitals are major job creators within our region, employing thousands of residents and paying millions of dollars in payroll and benefits. They are charity donors, contributing money and supplies in times of need, and they provide uncompensated care to those who are not able to pay for it. And none of this stopped during COVID-19.

In fact, many of our area hospitals went above and beyond their duties of caring for both COVID-19 patients and those suffering from other emergency conditions over the last year. Many hospitals shifted

investment to frontline healthcare workers. For example, HealthONE provided bonuses to all full- and part-time employees and had no layoffs due to the pandemic. And area hospitals ramped up donations of protective supplies and funds to organizations working for COVID relief.

The care and support our health care heroes and hospitals continue providing the people of Jefferson County and the Denver area is nothing short of outstanding. They deserve our thanks and support now, as we navigate our way out of the pandemic, and beyond. Doing so will ensure that our communities continue receiving the most extensive care possible.

A small way to help get past this nightmare Nobody, including me, enjoys wearing a mask. But while our daughter is at school, it is a simple and effective way to keep everyone safe. I know we all were really hoping that things would be back to normal, but they are not. COVID cases are rising, hospital ICU beds are filling up, and too many of our young students cannot get vaccinated yet.

Wearing a mask is one small way we can help get past this nightmare.

I am personally grateful for the

Jeffco Public Schools mask requirement. While a vocal minority of parents may control some of the recent headlines, I am confident that thousands of parents like me support masking at school. There are

endless circumstances, like taking care of an elderly parent or at-risk child, that people don’t see. Wearing a mask helps account for those

who work in the schools have been tasked with the impossible for forever, but especially the last two years, and they’ve tried. And they’re still trying. Every day.

These are just preliminary thoughts. I’ve only been retired for a few months, so I haven’t really processed all of what the last three decades meant. But you can bet I’ll have more to say.

CLIMBER REACHES FOR DREAM

LIFE

Local teen finished seventh in Tokyo Olympics

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

W

hen Colin Duffy first laid eyes on an indoor climbing wall, he was only 3 years old.

The colorful holds drew his attention and he begged his parents to let him give the sport a try. By 7, he was climbing in full-sized gyms. And now, at 17, Duffy was the youngest competitor in the first-ever Olympic sport climbing event.

“I think I just love how unique of a physical challenge it is,” he said about the sport. “Not only do you have to be strong enough to solve the climbs and problems but you also have to use your brain, figuring out body position and what the best strategy is going to be for each route.”

Duffy, a Broomfield resident and a student of Stargate Charter School in the Adams 12 district, grew up climbing in the area. He frequents local rock climbing gyms like G1 Climbing + Fitness, and his favorite local spot to climb outdoors is Rocky Mountain National Park.

Duffy qualified for this year’s Olympic Games in 2020 when he won the International Federation of Sport Climbing’s Pan American Championship in Los Angeles.

“I was kind of just awestruck after qualifying,” he said. “It didn’t really feel real.”

Then, the Olympic Games were delayed for a year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Leading up to the Tokyo Olympics, Duffy, like many Olympic athletes, had to face a variety of new training methods due to the COVID-19 pandemic. For several months, gyms were closed and Duffy had to practice his climbing on an at-home wall in his basement.

When gyms opened, he adjusted to training while wearing a mask. Then, two weeks before the climbing competitions started, he traveled with the rest of the four-person U.S. team to Tokyo in early August. Once in Japan, Duffy and his colleagues began to work on acclimating to the humid, hot weather they’d be competing in.

“I think the most noticeable difference for me was the heat,” Duffy said. “I’ve always been used to dry heat and a lack of humidity, so being in such an intense climate and having to compete outdoors in that was really kind of hard to adjust to.”

ven a casual drive around the Denver metro area will unveil a bevy of architectural gems, with even more design secrets hiding behind doors you might not expect. But since getting an invite to house parties at all these places was dubious even before a global pandemic, the Denver Architecture Foundation hosts Doors Open Denver to share these built environment stories.

This year’s event begins on Monday, Sept.

27 and runs through Sunday, Oct. 17 and features a blend of virtual and in-person tours. The free, virtual tours are available on-demand and include four 2021 stops and 12 archived stops from last year’s event.

In-person tours take place Saturdays and Sundays with four tours per day, according to provided information. Sites include the Clyfford Still Museum, the Historic Elitch Theater, the Historic 11th Avenue Hostel and the US. Olympic and Paralympic Museum. Tickets for in-person tours are available but are expected to be in high demand.

As part of the event, the Y/OUR Denver photography competition will also be back, accepting entries through Thursday, Oct. 23. The corresponding exhibit of top entries will open to the public virtually in December.

We spoke to Pauline Herrera, Denver Architecture Foundation executive director,

about this year’s event and what you need to know: How did you go about planning this year’s event, with the pandemic still going?

We began planning in late 2020. Since, at the time, we did not know where things were headed with the pandemic, we decided to pursue a virtual event for 2021, like we had in 2020. We remained open, however, to including in-person opportunities, if that became possible. We’re glad it did and that we’re able to present a hybrid event this year.

climbing.

In the bouldering event, athletes attempt to scale short, challenging pre-set routes, also known as problems, which are made up of plastic imitation rocks of various shapes and sizes. The walls in this event are about 15 feet high and surrounded by large pads. Climbers don’t use any rope for this event.

During lead climbing, the athletes are tied into a rope as they see how high they can get on a wall more than 50 feet high. As they climb, the competitors attach their rope into clips placed along the wall. On the ground, a belayer attached to the same rope is ready to catch the climber if they fall or finish the route.

While each route and problem in the lead climbing and bouldering disciplines is unique and never-before-seen by the athletes, the speed climbing event is different in that it presents the same route in every competition. Athletes dart up this standard route to see how quickly they can press a touchpad at the top. The fastest speed at the finals of the Olympics was 6.02 seconds.

In this year’s Olympics, climbers were required to participate in

all three events, with their score being determined by how they ranked in each one. Some in the sport criticized this format because of the inherent differences between speed climbing and the other two disciplines.

Duffy’s favorite climbing events are bouldering and lead climbing, he said. In the next Olympic games, there will be one competition for speed climbing and one combining bouldering and lead.

Duffy was one of eight climbers who made it into the Olympic finals out of 20 male athletes. In the finals, he finished seventh overall. In the speed competition he ranked fifth, with 6.35 as his fastest time. In the bouldering event he finished in fourth place, and in the lead competition he ranked third.

Nathaniel Coleman, the other male climber from the U.S., took silver in the competition. Brooke Raboutou — from Boulder, Colorado — placed fifth in the women’s competition.

“I had a lot of fun,” Duffy said.

“I think a lot of people probably look at it as the most intense event possible, but I think outside of the competition days, being around the village and being surrounded by so many incredible athletes, everyone is always smiling and just happy to be there with their teammates.”

Enjoying the games As the youngest climber there, Duffy felt like he was able to relax and not put too much pressure on himself, he said.

“I think it allowed me to climb pretty loosely, especially in the qualifiers, I felt like I had nothing to lose being the youngest one there,” he said. “I know I’ll have other opportunities in the future, and being so young, there’s really no pressure or expectations on me, so my main goal was just to have fun.”

Due to the pandemic, Duffy’s family was not able to attend the games in person and instead had to wake up each night of the event about 2 a.m. to watch the competition in real time. But Nancy Duffy, Colin’s mom, said it wasn’t difficult to stay alert.

“When your kid is going, you’re nervous,” she said. “So it’s easy to stay awake at that point.”

Duffy hopes to compete again in the next Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024, he said.

“I just hope in the future that climbing continues to gain recognition. I think it’s a sport that … people are really fascinated by,” he said. “It’s much different than the traditional sports you’ll see. Hopefully people that watch the Olympics really enjoy it and it starts to gain more traction.”

Fun for a good cause at Farmers 5000 Forty-years later, the 5K fundraiser is still going strong.

BY BOB WOOLEY BWOOLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If you didn’t know the millions of metroarea residents to the north, east and south of Wheat Ridge were there, an event like the Farmers 5000 5K might make you think you were in small-town America — in the best possible way.

Smiles were the order of the day, and waves — lots of waves, to friends and neighbors as as folks gathered before the race. There were local business sponsors, a DJ cranking the hits — even a game of cow-patty bingo, complete with a real cow.

This was the 40th year serious competitors and folks running for fun came to Wheat Ridge High School to challenge themselves and raise money to support educational and special programs at the school.

This year’s fastest time was recorded by Scott Figurski, who ran the 5K in 00:18:55.

Advisory board calls for renaming Squaw Mountain Proposed replacement name after influential Cheyenne translator

BY JASON BLEVINS THE COLORADO SUN

The Colorado Geographic Naming Advisory Board on Thursday made its first recommendation: changing the name of Squaw Mountain in Clear Creek County to Mestaa’ehehe Mountain.

After a year of plodding procedural meetings, the board unanimously approved renaming the peak — referred to in debate as “SMountain” — after the influential Cheyenne translator known as Owl Woman, who facilitated relations between white settlers and Native American tribes in the early 1800s.

Mestaa’ehehe is pronounced messtaw-HAY. “I think this will be a good change for Coloradans and all Native Americans,” said Fred Mosqueda, the Arapaho coordinator for the Cheyenne and Arapaho Culture Program.

Members of the Northern Cheyenne Tribe in October filed the application for the name change with the U.S. Geological Survey’s Board on Geographic Names, which has final say over name changes on federal land. Colorado Gov. Jared Polis revived the 15-member Colo-

The federal board has a list of 13 locations in Colorado for which residents have submitted namechange applications. That list includes changing Clear Creek County’s Mount Evans to Mount Cheyenne Arapaho and S-Mountain to Mestaa’ehehe Mountain.

Jim Ramey, the Colorado director of The Wilderness Society, was among a handful of Colorado residents and Native American leaders who voiced support for the name change.

“We believe the current name is patently offensive and should have no place on public lands,” Ramey said.

Other locations on the state board’s list of possible name changes include Chinaman Gulch in Chaffee County and a mesa and creek in Delta County named by Mexican settlers for the color black,

or “negro.”

The Colorado board continued its discussion on the Delta County name changes — proposed by the Delta County Board of Commissioners who surveyed local high schoolers to come up with the replacement names Clay Creek and Clay Mesa — until its October meeting. Members of the board wanted to continue outreach to a wider audience before recommending the new names.

The vote to change S-Mountain included little discussion from the board’s 15 members, who first met in September 2020 and began hammering out procedures for gathering input on proposed name changes in the state. The board’s formation was part of a national movement to reassess names and monuments considered offensive or racist.

RENAMING FROM PAGE 20

Sculptures have fallen. Professional sports teams have changed names. Mascots have been retired.

Since as early as 1995, state lawmakers in Maine, Minnesota, Montana, Oklahoma, Oregon and South Dakota have removed the name squaw from landmarks.

Most recently, this week the California ski area with that name announced it would be known as Palisades at Tahoe, which is owned

by Denver’s Alterra Mountain Co. The shift took the Olympic Valley ski area more than a year as it worked with the Washoe Tribe and local residents.

Ski area president and CEO Dee Byrne said her team weighed “thousands of data points,” as it considered the name change.

The Palisades at Tahoe ski area now launches the arduous task of changing a 70-year-old identity. (The ski area sent a list of tasks, including changes to 32,000 uniform pieces and switching signs and logos at 5,000 locations around the ski hill.)

Many will be watching Palisades at Tahoe as it navigates rebranding from of one of the resort industry’s most venerable names. The process could help Colorado communities as they begin stripping names off landmarks.

“There is no roadmap out there for this,” said Byrne, who expects the full shift to take as long as three seasons. “Even with our branding agency, there is no playbook we can

open up.”

No one lobbied the ski area for the name change. Protestors weren’t picketing the resort. But last year, after George Floyd was killed by police officers in Minnesota and Black Lives Matter protests spurred the removalof racist icons from the public square — including a tribute to Christopher Columbusand a statue of Kit Carson in downtown Denver — and a chorus of voices demanding that decades, if not centuries of embedded discrimination be shed, “it was just time,” Byrne said.

“It was just so abundantly clear it was wrong,” she said. “Squaw is a hurtful name and we are not hurtful

people.”

The shift at S-Mountain in Clear Creek County will be a first and will set the path for future — and more involved — name changes. It’s likely that the pass over the saddle of S-Mountain will be renamed. A few signs must be replaced.

That will help as the state naming board considers Mount Evans, which is named after Colorado’s second territorial governor, who resigned in disgrace after the cavalryled massacre of nearly 200 Arapaho and Cheyenne tribal members at Sand Creek in 1864.

And that process could help with an even more tangled removal of

the Gore name from the name from central Colorado’s largely roadless mountain range. Lord St. George Gore was an Irish aristocrat who spent two years in Colorado in the mid-1800s slaughtering just about every animal that crossed his path.

No one is absolutely clear about how his name found its way to the mountain range, but Gore is now intricately entwined in many Eagle, Summit and Grand county communities, where dozens of creeks, streets and businesses carry the name.

Clear Creek County is among the first Colorado communities to begin the shift to a new name for a county landmark. The county’s board of commissioners in June approved the change to Mestaa’ehehe Mountain.

Clear Creek County Commissioner Randy Wheelock said he heard “some virulent reaction” to the name change, but many more residents supported the shift.

“Especially once they understood the history of Owl Woman,” Wheelock said.

Removing the offensive name sets the path for changing Mount Evans, which is high on the state board’s to-do list.

“We are looking forward to that conversation,” Wheelock said. “And continuing our education.”

Denver Art Museum’s Martin Building reopens after $150M project

Tickets to the renovated north campus now available

BY MAGGIE DONAHUE DENVERITE

For more than three years, the north side of the Denver Art Museum campus has been closed for renovation. But soon, just in time for what is now known as the Lanny and Sharon Martin Building’s 50th anniversary, visitors will finally get to see inside the eight-floor struc-

ture designed by Gio Ponti, as well as the new Anna and John J. Sie Welcome Center.

The reimagined campus will reopen to the public with a free admission day on Oct. 24. The newly restored Martin Building offers 33,328 square feet of new gallery and public space, educational programming, artist interactions, expanded outdoor spaces, and sweeping views of the city and mountains.

It also features the new Jana & Fred Bartlit Learning and Engagement Center, which offers more than 17,600 square feet of programming space, workshop rooms, community galleries and interactive gathering

spaces, including activations by artists Frankie Toan and Moe Gram.

The 50,000-square-foot Welcome Center, which connects the Martin Building to the museum’s Frederic C. Hamilton Building to the south, will offer ticketing guest services, programming spaces, an art conservation and technical studies laboratory, and two new dining spaces, including the quick-service Café Gio and the Ponti Restaurant, which features a locally sourced menu by James Beard Award-winning Denver chef Jennifer Jasinski “We are looking forward to being open for creativity, joy and wonder – welcoming our community into new, dynamic spaces this fall, to explore art, world cultures and their own creativity,” museum director Christoph Heinrich said in a press release.

Press materials also say that as part of the Martin Building’s redesign, its galleries have been updated with a commitment to inclusion.

Some of those initiatives include highlighting more contemporary and community artists, as well as including bilingual art labels in both English and Spanish throughout the entire museum campus.

Some of the updated or new collection galleries include the Northwest Coast and Alaska Native galleries, Indigenous Arts of North America galleries, Latin American Art and Art of the Ancient Americas galleries, Asian Art galleries, European Art Before 1800, Textile Art and

Fashion and Photography galleries, and Western American Art galleries.

The first floor of the Martin Building, which once was used primarily as art storage, will operate as the 6,500-square-foot Bonfils-Stanton Foundation Gallery. The space will open with “ReVisión: Art in the Americas,” an exhibition highlighting about 180 works from the DAM’s Latin American and Art of the Ancient Americas collections.

The renovations cost $150 million to build. Denver Art Museum Board Chairman Lanny Martin and his wife Sharon Martin, for whom the Martin Building is named, contributed the first $25 million. Voterapproved Elevate Denver Bonds covered an additional $35.5 million, and the museum helped cover the rest by matching public investment dollars at a three-to-one ratio.

The renovated campus will reopen to the public Oct. 24 with an opening day celebration from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. While it’s free to attend, guests must reserve tickets, which are now available. And if you’re a member and you want to check out the campus early, you can attend a Member Preview on Oct. 21, 22 or 23.

Miller, asked why the district had floated the idea of financing their share of the project’s expense rather than using bond premium from the 2018 Bond and Capital Improvement Program (CIP).

Steve Bell, Chief Operating Officer, Jeffco Schools, said the District has done extensive modeling for financing the project using the $35 million estimate. He said if financed for a term of 25 years, the project would cost around $2 million per year. Out of that, the District’s share would amount to around $1 million per year.

Bell said due to their creditworthiness, the true interest cost of financing the District’s portion of the project would be around 2 - 2.5%. He also said that since Arvada wasn’t prepared to cash-fund their share of the cost, it would create an incompatible situation for the District to pay upfront

In the end, Board President, Susan Harmon, asked District staff to bring more financing options and a clearer picture of the IGA to the board before the plan is revisited in October.

Board member, Brad Rupert, said looming board elections called for acting with a sense of urgency in the matter. He said the current state of the Meyers Pool didn’t leave time for a new board to get up to speed on the project, cautioning the board not to “kick the can down the road.”

Jeffco also uses the Carmody Pool, Green Mountain Pool, Wheat Ridge Pool and Foothills at The Ridge. The newest of those pools, Foothills at The Ridge, opened in 2003. Carmody Pool is also nearly 50 years old.

“How To Put An End To Knee Pain Even It’s Been Years of Misery”

By Leading CO Knee Pain Doctor of Physical Therapy, Brooke Olsen Denver - If I were to get bad knee pain again, here’s what I would do differently: First, I wouldn’t wait and hope it just goes away. That only made it worse. I wouldn’t try to stretch, or get adjustments on it. I definitely wouldn’t get an injection (very dangerous long term). So what would I do?

Hi, my name is Dr. Brooke Olsen, PT, DPT. I’m a national knee pain expert.

I’ve made a career for myself helping hundreds of active adults end their knee pain naturally, and I help them do it all over the country. But that wasn’t always the case. Early on in my career, I had bad knee pain. I previously tore my meniscus, MCL, and part of my ACL when I was young. Later, I had so much swelling and pain when just walking up and down stairs in the hospitals, nonetheless trying to go for a hike or walk around the park.

it’s really not that hard.

The secret is fixing the root cause, which is the thing that’s causing your knee to hurt in the first place. Most treatment options just focus on relieving the pain where it hurts, without ever questioning why it hurts and what oth-er areas could be affecting it.

So if I ever got bad knee pain again, I would immediately start fixing the root cause of my pain, rather than waste time on temporary band-aid fixes.

If you are wondering how you find what your root cause is, and how you can fix it once you find it, my new Best Selling book, Aging Happily Without Pain, will teach you all of that. I’ve gone ahead and paid for the books myself, all I ask is that you pay for the small shipping & handling fee to send it to you ($7.95).

You can either call my assistant Cody at (720)-772-1133 and he’ll help get a copy to your doorstep or just go online to this link: www.ThePhysioRevolution.com

I tried what felt live everything to help over the years, and it just wouldn’t go away. You can imagine the frustration and hopeless-ness that set in. I asked my colleagues for help, but most of what they tried did nothing for me.

Desperate for a return to my normal life, I set out on a journey. I traveled the country, in search of learning from the best and brightest. I took many courses, and eventually found a mentor who had some answers. I learned that in order to fix knee pain permanently and naturally,

Jackalope Arts Festival comes to Olde Town Artisans from across the state showcase goods at two-day event

BY RYAN DUNN AND ERIN MCGOVERN RDUNN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA

The Jackalope Arts Festival came to Olde Town Arvada for the first time on Sept. 18 and 19, showcasing handmade goods made by over 60 local artisans from across the state.

The festival was free of charge to attendees and ran from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. both days.

Jackalope co-founder Melissa Kohout — herself an Arvada native — said she was inspired to bring the festival to her hometown in part because of the recent beautification efforts enacted in the Olde Town district.

“I love it. I love the murals, I think they’re so artistic and I think it really goes well with Jackalope,” said Kohout. “I love all the restaurants and shops in Olde Town, so it’s fun to just sort of add to it and hopefully all of us work together to bring more people to Arvada.”

Olde Town Business Improvement District Marketing and Events Manager Carya Haas said the festival’s organizers reached out to the BID hoping to hold Jackalope in Olde Town and said the BID worked with the Kohout and fellow Jackalope CoFounder Sara Deitrich to help get the event off the ground.

“Jackalope actually reached out to us,” said Haas. “One of the organizers is originally from Arvada, and it’s my understanding that the street closures and stuff are what made Arvada really appealing for this festival… We’ve been working with them through the process to give them a leg-up and not have them start from scratch.”

Vendors at the festival included artisans of all types, including jewelers, leatherworkers, painters and botanists.

Alissandra Seelaus, a maker of digitally hand-drawn cards and pints, said that while she showcased her work at Jackalope before, she felt that the Arvada location was ideal for the event.

“This is the perfect spot. I’ve never been here before, I’m ashamed to

Latest congressional map keeps House members apart Redistricting changes still possible; deadline Sept. 28

BY SANDRA FISH AND THY VO THE COLORADO SUN

The latest draft of Colorado’s congressional map avoids putting the state’s current U.S. House members into the same district, while creating a sweeping district across most of the Western Slope and southern Colorado.

The most heavily populated parts of north Douglas County would stay where they are in the 4th Congressional District.

And the biggest cities in Arapahoe County — including Aurora, Centennial, Littleton, Englewood, Greenwood Village and Sheridan — would be in the 6th District, along with the Columbine and Ken Caryl areas of Jefferson County.

The new 8th Congressional District in the north Denver metro region would be nearly 39% Hispanic. It would encompass Northglenn, Thornton, Brighton, Commerce City and Fort Lupton.

And the proposed 7th District, now centered in the north and west metro area, would include much of Jefferson County and stretch to South Park in the central Rocky Mountains.

The new map, released Sept. 15, groups most of the Western Slope and southern Colorado into a single, L-shaped 3rd Congressional District.

Northwest high-country counties including Routt, Jackson, Eagle, Summit and Grand are grouped with Larimer and Boulder into a proposed 2nd Congressional District.

And the new districts would no longer pit Garfield County Republican U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert against Democratic U.S. Rep. Joe Neguse of Lafayette.

The map is the second to be drawn by nonpartisan staff based on 2020 census data, and incorporates input from the public about previous drafts.

Commissioners voted earlier in September to base the latest map on one drawn by Commissioner Martha Coleman, a Democrat from Fort Collins who is a geographer.

The latest map would create three safe Democratic districts, three safe Republican districts and

competitive 7th and 8th Congressional Districts, according to a report by nonpartisan legislative staff.

In three districts, the Hispanic population would make up more than a quarter of the total district.

The latest map is markedly different from two previous proposals.

Here’s a look at how the districts shape up: The 1st District centered in Denver remains safe for Democratic U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette, with a 57% Democratic advantage The 2nd District still includes Boulder and Fort Collins, but stretches west to Routt County and includes Summit and most of Eagle County. It also includes Neguse’s home in Lafayette, and would give Democrats a nearly 34% advantage.

The 3rd District stretches from Moffat County in the northwest, south through Mesa and Pitkin counties to Cortez and La Plata counties, then east to Pueblo and Las Animas County. Unlike a map released earlier this month, Boebert’s Silt home remains in the 3rd District, and she’d have a nearly

10% GOP advantage.

The 4th District still includes much of the Eastern Plains, as well as Windsor and much of Douglas County. Incumbent U.S. Rep. Ken Buck of Windsor would have a nearly 27% advantage.

The 5th District includes most of El Paso County, except for some eastern areas that end up in the 4th District. It would remain safe for incumbent U.S. Rep. Doug Lamborn with a 20% GOP advantage.

The 6th District includes most of Aurora and Arapahoe County, a safe seat for incumbent Rep. Jason Crow, of Centennial, with a 15% Democratic advantage.

The 7th District now includes most of Jefferson County, but also small portions of Adams, Boulder, Broomfield, Douglas and El Paso counties as well as all of seven mountain counties. Incumbent Democratic U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter, of Arvada, would find himself in a potentially competitive district with a 6% Democratic advantage.

The new 8th District includes much of Adams and Weld counties, including Greeley, Thorn-

ton, Commerce City and much of Westminster.

Democratic state Rep. Yadira Carveo, of Thornton, recently announced plans to run in the district, which has a Democratic advantage of about 4%.

The political competitiveness of the districts is based on an average of election results from eight statewide races between 2016 and 2020.

The percentages above represent the difference between the percent of votes cast for a Republican candidate and the percent of votes cast for a Democratic candidate.

There’s disagreement about what constitutes a “competitive district.”

While the Independent Legislative Redistricting Commission views an advantage of 8.5% or lower as a competitive district, the congressional commission hasn’t defined a range.

Morgan Carroll, chair of the Colorado Democratic Party, disputed the congressional commission’s formula for determining the political competitiveness of a district.

“Measuring competitiveness by focusing on

strong years for one party and ignoring 2014 — which was a strong year for the other party — is simply wrong,” Carroll said in a statement. “As a result, this could very likely end up a 4-4 map after the midterms, which is in no way reflective of Colorado voters.”

Currently, four of Colorado’s seven U.S. House members are Democrats.

Members of Congress don’t need to live in the district they represent.

A third congressional map drawn by staff may be released Sept. 23, if the commission doesn’t adopt a plan before then. The commission must adopt a map by Sept. 28 to submit to the Colorado Supreme Court by Oct. 1.

Columbine scores 5 TDs in 5 minutes in win over Highlands Ranch

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

LAKEWOOD — If you left your seat at Jeffco Stadium for a few minutes Sept. 17 you could very well have missed five touchdowns by No. 3-ranked Columbine.

The Rebels (4-0 record) put up five touchdowns from 1:59 left in the first half to 8:57 remaining in the second quarter to quickly grab a commanding 49-7 lead over Highlands Ranch.

The scoring outburst induced a running clock for the remainder of the Class 5A non-league game.

“It got really crazy,” Columbine senior tight end Daniel Aletheuo said after the 49-21 victory. “We found ways to make plays. That was the big thing. If we can find ways to make plays we can win every game.”

Columbine junior Tyree HayesTrusty got the incredible run going with a 57-yard touchdown run to open up a 21-7 lead. After an interception by Columbine sophomore Josh Snyder, Rebels’ senior quarterback Brock Zanetell hooked up with Aletheuo for a 26-yard touchdown.

“The play was right, tight, 30, Michigan pass,” Aletheuo said. “The safety came up and it was like the flood gates just opened. I was wideopen. The only thing going through my head was, ‘Don’t get striped.’ I just tucked it and walked into the end zone.”

The Rebels weren’t done through the air. Zanetell hit senior Jacob Clarey for a 58-yard touchdown with 10:46 left in the second quarter to put Columbine up 35-7.

“I’m not going to talk to much against game plan,” Aletheuo joked about the back-to-back touchdown passes. “But, if you can throw the ball it can’t hurt. The offensive line was blocking great and my quarterback was throwing dimes tonight.”

Zanetell had incomplete passes on his first three attempts, but the final two went for scores.

“We have to have more tools in our

toolkit,” Zanetell said of his second and third touchdown passes on the season. “The more we have the more teams have to prepare.”

Then it was Columbine’s defense to make its mark. Senior Grayson Headrick snagged an interception and ran it back 20 yards for a defensive touchdown with 9:59 left in the second quarter. A few plays later junior Payton Wainwright and senior Logan Corray teamed up for another defensive score.

Wainwright sacked Highlands Ranch senior quarterback Max Ludwig, who then fumbled the ball.

Corray picked up the loose ball and ran in from 10 yards out to make the score 49-7 with 8:57 left before halftime to induce the 40-point mercy rule.

“The whole entire defense came together,” Corray said of the pair

Lakewood no-hits Dakota Ridge to open 5A Jeffco League play

LITTLETON — The Class 5A Jeffco League opener couldn’t have gone much better for Lakewood’s softball team Sept. 15.

The Tigers racked up 12 runs on 14 hits while Lakewood senior Reagan Medina threw a no-hitter while striking out nine Dakota Ridge batters. Lakewood cruised to a 12-0 victory in four innings.

“We just came out here wanting to hit the ball and play good defense,” said Medina after her first completegame, no-hitter this season.

“That was the plan and we executed.”

Medina walked three batters over the four innings.

Dakota Ridge only put three balls into play during the game. The Eagles’ best scoring chance came in the bottom of the fourth inning.

Senior Shelby Whiteaker worked a lead-off walk, but was stranded at third base when senior Ariana Torres struck out to end the game.

“It was huge for Reagan.

Way to come out and pitch her tail off,” Lakewood coach Dannielle Gunn said of Medina throwing a no-hitter. “With her in the circle and building up her confidence is huge for us.”

Gunn has used Medina and senior Destiny Martinez pretty equally during nonleague play.

“It going to be a 1-2 punch is what we call it,” Gunn said of using Medina and

Martinez on the mound.

“That’s our general plan.”

If Lakewood (12-5 record) can produce offensively like it did against Dakota Ridge (4-12) it will take a lot of weight off the Tigers’ pitching staff. Senior Jazlyn Arvizo had the big hit early with a bases-loaded home run in the top of the second inning to push Lakewood to an early 6-0 lead.

“I’m really proud of Jaz,” Medina said of the fellow senior’s grand slam to open the flood gates in the second inning. “Everyone kept going after that.”

Evergreen and Columbine boys golf teams capture Jeffco League titles Lange edges Messingham in tight 5A Jeffco medalist crown

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

ARVADA — The race for Class 5A Jeffco League boys golf individual medalist title was as tight as could be Sept. 14 at West Woods Golf Club.

The previous two individual medalist winners — Lakewood senior Max Lange and Ralston Valley senior Gage Messingham — were dead locked with a 9-hole average of 34.2 strokes over the first five conference tournaments. Lange (medalist as a sophomore in 2019) was paired in the same foursome with Messingham (defending medalist from 2020) in the final league tournament of the season.

“It felt like match-play between me and Gage,” Lange said. “Gage and I are actually really good friends.

Talking down the 18th fairway with him was pretty cool. It’s great to compete against him. He is a really great golfer.”

Lange would eventually claim his second individual medalist league title of his career thanks to a strong run on the back-nine. The senior was 4-over-par early on in his final nine holes, but managed a run of four birdies in the final five holes to finish with a 1-over-par 73.

“I felt like I would never give up. I just kept going,” Lange said of his round. “I couldn’t make a putt to save my life, but coming in (backnine) I knew I had an easy stretch and could bounce back even with starting bad.”

Messingham had a hot start with three birdies on his first five holes. He eventually finished with a 1-under-par 71. Despite Messingham with a 2-stroke better finish on the day, the bylaws to determine the individual medalist title calls for each golfer to drop their two worst 9-hole scores over the six tournaments.

When all the numbers were crunched, Lange finished with a 33.8 9-hole average and Messingham finished with a 34.0 9-hole average. The medalist title was actually decided by two strokes.

“It wasn’t the way I wanted to end

Columbine’s boys golf team poses with the Class 5A Jeffco League plaque after the final Jeffco League tournament of the season PHOTOS BY DENNIS PLEUSS/JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS Sept. 14 at West Woods Golf Club. It’s the Rebels first boys golf team title in 44 years.

(league),” Messingham said. “It is what it is.”

The Ralston Valley senior was quick to move on to the runner-up finish in the extremely competitive 5A Jeffco League.

“Just focusing on regionals now,” said Messingham, who finished tied for 7th at the 5A state tournament last year. “Get in some practice rounds and then move on to state.”

The four 5A regional and state qualifying tournaments will be played Sept. 20-23 next week. The team finish in league determines which regional Jeffco teams will be headed to. The 5A state tournament is scheduled for Colorado Springs Country Club on Oct. 4 and 5.

“I would like to see it comes down to me and Gage at state,” Lange said. “I do have to focus on regionals and put my team in a good place to qualify for state as a team.”

Columbine ended a long drought on the links. The Rebels wrapped up the 5A Jeffco team title for the first time since 1977. Sophomore Matai Naqica shot a 2-under-par 70 to lead the way for Columbine.

“We haven’t won a league championship in 44 years,” Naqica said.

at Homestead Golf Course last week and finishing second behind Valor junior Colin Young who shot a 4-under-par 68 at West Woods.

“I’ve just put in more working and focusing more in general to the tournament itself,” Naqica said. “Doing the little things right.”

On the 4A side, Evergreen did a lot right during the regular season.

The Cougars cruised to the 4A Jeffco League team title and freshman Tyler Long dominated winning the individual medalist title.

“It was solid,” Long said after his 3-under-par, 69 at West Woods.

There was a little bit of pressure on Long even if he didn’t realize it. The freshman didn’t golf at the Homestead tournament last week, so the two 9-holes he dropped had to be that whole tournament at the short championship course that is a par 65.

“I didn’t even know that existed,” Long said about players dropping your two worst 9-hole scores when determining the individual medalist title. “It feels pretty good. I’ve been playing a lot of competitive tournament golf.”

The Cougars and the rest of the 4A Jeffco teams will head to the 4A Region 2 tournament at Country Club of Colorado on Sept. 20 in Colorado

Lakewood senior Max Lange hits his approach shot on No. 2 hole on the Sleeping Indian nine at West Woods GC on Sept. 14. Lange claimed his second Class 5A Jeffco League medalist title of his career just edging out Ralston Valley senior Gage Messingham by two strokes over the six league tournament.

Springs.

“I just want to play good golf,” Long said about heading to regionals and likely state.

of defensive scores. “We realized we had to pick it up and play better. We gave it our all and all of the sudden five touchdowns came.”

Highlands Ranch (1-3) actually tied the game up 7-7 late in the first quarter with a 3-yard touchdown run by sophomore Brayden Larimer, but Hayes-Trusty ripped off his first touchdown run of the night with a 28-yard score after a good kickoff return by Columbine junior Aedan Lowther.

“We came out pretty slow I think on offense and defense,” Columbine coach Andy Lowry said.

“Then guys made some plays. We broke a couple of long runs and we’ve been working on our passing game all week. It actually kind of worked.”

Columbine’s workhorse running back — senior Seth Cromwell — had a light night with just five carries for 52 yards. He did score the opening touchdown of the game with an 11-yard run midway through the first quarter.

After the big homecoming victory, the Rebels know focus their attention on No. 1 Valor Christian (4-0). Columbine plays at the Eagles’ home field in Highlands Ranch next Friday night in one of the biggest non-league games of the season in Colorado.

“We have been thinking about this next game the whole entire season,” Corray said of facing Valor. “You know it’s going to be a fight next week. Hopefully we’ll come out on top.”

No. 2 Dakota Ridge soars past Rampart

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Dakota Ridge senior Connor Fitzhugh, left, makes a leaping grab over Rampart junior Rand Butler in a play that resulted in a 51-yard touchdown catch. The Eagles improved to 4-0 with a 42-2 victory over the Rams on Sept. 17 at Jeffco Stadium.

LAKEWOOD — Dakota Ridge football continues to light up the scoreboard.

The Eagles — No. 2 in the latest CHSAANow.com Class 4A standings — put up 40-plus points for the third straight game Sept. 17 at Jeffco Stadium. Dakota Ridge defeated Rampart 42-2 to remain undefeated on the season.

“It got a little tiring with people talking abut all the seniors that were graduating,” Dakota Ridge junior running back Noah Triplett said. “We still have some dogs. At this point we are really reloading rather than rebuilding.”

Triplett had a trio of touchdown runs — 1, 16 and 19 yards — to push his total to 13 on the season in four games.

Dakota Ridge’s defense forced an early turnover to give the Eagles (4-0 record) ideal field position on Rampart’s 21-yard line for Dakota Ridge’s opening offensive drive.

Senior Isac Pingarron picked up a loose ball to give the Eagles the ball near the red zone.

“It was a great defensive effort,” Pingarron said.

Triplett spun his way into the end zone from 1-yard out to give the Eagles an early 7-0 lead.

The second scoring drive for Dakota Ridge was similar. After a 3-and-out for Rampart, the Eagles got great field position again on the Rams’ 18-yard line after a good punt

return by senior Connor Fitzhugh.

Senior quarterback Adam Graves tossed his first of three touchdown passes with a 6-yard scoring strike to junior Bobby Levin with 7:39 left in the second quarter.

Triplett ran for his second touchdown of the game on the Eagles’ third offensive drive. The junior scored from 16 yards out to put Dakota Ridge up 21-0 with 3:31 left in the first quarter. The Eagles kept it going in the second quarter with Graves hitting Fitzhugh for a remarkable 51-yard touchdown.

“It was amazing how I did that,” Fitzhugh said of the leaping grab and then keeping his feet. “I said the ball and high pointed it. I was still up so I ran in.”

Fitzhugh out-jumped Rampart junior Rand Butler and somehow the Dakota Ridge receiver didn’t go down and jogged into the end zone to give the Eagles a 28-0 lead.

“We kind of call him the silent warrior,” Dakota Ridge coach Ron Woitalewicz said of Fitzhugh. “He just keeps making plays. He isn’t a big talker, but he has had a great year so far. He does everything for us.”

Graves threw his third touchdown with a 13-yard shovel pass to senior Jacob Lafave on the Eagles’ opening drive of the second half. It was a good bounce-back for Graves after he threw two interceptions in the final minute of the second quarter.

“I was a little disappointed. I SEE DAKOTA, P39

spot in the line-up. The Tigers’ centerfield hit a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning that hit off the top of the fence in right field and over.

“I was like, ‘We need to more runs to finish the game soon.’ I had to help Reagan out,” Corthell said of her home run that pushed the lead to 12-0 allowed the Tigers

to end the game after four innings due to the mercy rule.

Corthell, Arvizo, Medina, Destiny Martinez and Angelyse Martinez all had multiple hit games for Lakewood.

“Dominating and keeping our bats hot is huge for us,” Gunn said.

“Our energy and what we put into our offense is huge. We got to have that consistency. We’ve got to have girls on base. We are too talented to not have girls on base.”

Arvada West, Chatfield, Columbine and Lakewood all have

double-digit non-league victories as 5A Jeffco League play starts to really heat up next week. The Chargers are the defending conference champs.

“I definitely think we have a shot at it,” Corthell said of the league title. “Our team is really solid as a senior-loaded team. I think we’ll make it far.”

Dennis Pleuss is the Sports Information Director for Jeffco Public Schools. For more Jeffco coverage, go to CHSAANow.com.

Lakewood senior Reagan Medina threw a no-hitter in the Tigers’ 12-0 victory over Dakota Ridge on Sept. 15.

DAKOTA RIDGE

“We came into that drive with the mentality that we were going to punch them in the mouth,” Triplett said of the Eagles’ final scoring drive. “We wanted to finish it right now. I liked the way we finished.”

It was the third straight game that the Eagles have got to a running clock against their opponent.

“You have seen our league this year. That isn’t going to happen,” Woitalewicz said about running clocks during play in the improved conference this season. “Bear Creek is better. Golden and Chatfield are 4-0. It’s not like last year when we could just turn it on and go. I’m not sure if we’ll see a running clock the rest of the year.”

Dakota Ridge finishes out nonleague play on the road next week against Brighton.

thought we lot a little focus at the end of the first half,” Woitalewicz said. “Maybe things seemed a little easy early and they got complacent.”

The only points Rampart (1-3) produced was when senior Quintin Klich sacked Graves in the end zone for a 2-point safety with 4:16 left in the third quarter.

“Defensively I thought we played really good,” Woitalewicz said. “We do have to do a better job taking care of the ball on offense. We’ll get that stuff cleaned up.”

Dakota Ridge did finish strong with Triplett having three straight carries on a 3 play, 52 yard scoring drive. The bruising running back had carries of 22, 11 and 19 yards to induce a running clock with 11:02 left in the fourth quarter with a 42-2 lead.
