Varenyky, borscht and roulade, oh my!

Unsealed a davit provides account of fatal shooting Domestic dispute to blame

BY RYLEE DUNN RDUNN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

After that vehicle arrived, a fight broke out in the apartment’s parking lot. During the fight, Sonny Almanza retrieved a rifle and came out to the parking lot. Almanza fired a round from the rifle which struck Mercedes

Lopez — Lexie Lopez’s sister — in the leg. During the gunfire, Vakoff was fatally shot, according to the arrest affiddavit.

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

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

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

Later on, at Denver Health Medical Center, Almanza was interviewed by two Arvada police detectives after being advised of his Miranda Rights.

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

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

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

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

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

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

located the suspect — Irene Lonnie Martinez, 55, of Aurora — and the vehicle on the morning of Sept. 30, according to Lakewood Police Public Information Officer John Romero. She was taken into custody and is

being held at the Jefferson County jail for “suspicion of Leaving the Scene of an Accident Involving Death,” said Romero.

The name of the victim is not currently being released.

Lopez’s approached Medlock’s vehicle as it came to a stop in the street.

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

After being involved in the fight for a few seconds, Almanza allegedly went into his apartment and retrieved an AR-15 assault rifle, which he reportedly kept in his kitchen closet.

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

Almanza continued walking

towards the fight, unaware that officers were on the scene. As he approached, Almanza was shot in the hip, pointed the rifle in the direction of the shot, and fired one round.

Officer Dillon Vakoff had been shot and fell to the ground. Realizing he shot an officer; Almanza allegedly ran to his backyard and threw the rifle away.

When he returned to the front of the apartment, Almanza was taken into custody by another officer. Officer Vakoff was fatally shot in the head and leg.

The investigation into the events of Sept. 11 is ongoing.

Almanza has been charged with multiple felonies, including three counts of Murder in the First Degree for Vakoff’s death. Almanza is scheduled to appear in court for the second time on Oct. 7.

Treasure Trunk closes its hatch

BY ANDREW FRAIELI AFRAIELI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Treasure Trunk Community

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

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

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

According to Lawson, the Trea-

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

“We just had to make the decision that we can still meet client needs and not carry Treasure Trunk forward,” she said.

The idea of it being a thrift store was because it also handled all donations to Family Tree, Lawson elaborated. Donations of used items would support the store, and new items would go on to support clients that Family Tree was helping.

Now that the store is closing, Lawson said the organization is encouraging people to donate used items to places like the Action Center and other local thrift stores. Family Tree is still accepting new items and has an active needs list

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

on its website.

“We’re really grateful to the community for supporting Treasure Trunk with their donations and by shopping…it’s all about supporting

our clients who are on a journey to safety, stability and healing,” Lawson said.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

A radon test also costs $100 or so and

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

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

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

How the Inspection Objection Process Works

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

Inspection Objection

Inspection Termination

Inspection Resolution

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

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

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

You Can Help Turn Pumpkins Into Habitat Houses!

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

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

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

Nonprofit co ee truck brews opportunities

on-the-job training by teaching them how to manage and operate a coffee truck that will eventually travel around the Denver metro area.

BY DANA KNOWLES, JULIO SANDOVAL ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

Even though 26-year-old Paige Gray was born with special needs, her mother Karen says Paige and her friends are special in so many other ways.

Karen said Paige and others with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) “have the biggest hearts and in society today.”

“They’re open minded. They care,” Karen said.

Paige is one of several ambassadors for Tall Tales Ranch in Centennial, a nonprofi t that supports people with autism, Down syndrome, and other intellectual and developmental disabilities.

“I feel like it’s important to make new friends because out in the world, you never know who wants to be your friend or who you want to hang out with, and it’s really fun to explore the world out here to fi nd people that you can hang out with,” Paige said.

The main goal of Tall Tales Ranch is to start a community in Lone Tree where people with IDD can live with those who don’t have disabilities. While the community is being built, the organization is helping the ambassadors with

“It feels so good. This is my fi rst time making coffee,” Paige added with a laugh. “It feels good to be involved and helping out.”

“We’ve learned so much about our ambassadors — our friends living with special needs — how capable they are and how much they want to be part of the community,” explained Susan Mooney, one of the founders of Tall Tales Ranch.

“They want to be productive; They want to have jobs. And it’s very diffi cult to fi nd employment for them in a space that’s willing to make accommodations,” Mooney continued, adding that adults with special needs have unique skills and talents that need to be recognized and utilized.

Studies show that less than 40% of people with IDD have paid employment and many of those workers are underpaid. However, several companies around Colorado employ workers with IDD, like DIRT Coffee in Littleton, Pizzability in Englewood, Jack’s/Steamers in Arvada and Festive Cup Coffee in Highlands Ranch.

Mooney and her husband, Pat, started Tall Tales Ranch eight years ago after their son Ross was diagnosed with a genetic condition

Paige Gray

called adrenoleukodystrophy at the age of 14. Ross received a bone marrow transplant to stop the progression and afterwards his parents wanted to fi nd more ways for Ross to engage with the outside world, make friends, work a job and live as normal of a life as possible. That’s how Tall Tales Ranch was born.

To now see it come to fruition and see it change people’s lives makes me so happy,” Mooney said. “And I love being able to give them the opportunity … If given the opportunity, they will just shine.”

Sammi Somers is also an am-

bassador for Tall Tales Ranch. Sommers said the best part of the experience is working with her friends.

“We want to be like the regular community and have jobs, and I’m super happy and can’t wait to get this started,” Sommer said. “Let’s rock Tall Tales Ranch!”

Voters may end ‘lunch shaming’

Proposition on fall ballot could mean free meals for schoolchildren

BY SONIA GUTIERREZ ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

When Maria Judith Alvarez’ son was in elementary school, he once returned home from school with his lunch number written on his wrist. It was the school’s way of letting Alvarez know that her son owed lunch money.

“They weren’t going to give him

any more food until I went to pay off the debt,” Alvarez told Rocky Mountain PBS in Spanish.

At the time, the family only had one car and one cell phone that Alvarez’ husband used most of the time for his job.

“Maybe they tried to get in touch with us with a phone call or a voicemail,” she said, “but with my husband working — you know how some men are — they don’t always answer the phone.”

Alvarez went to the school the following day to pay off the debt and put more money in her son’s account. “I wanted him to feel confident next time he stood in line for a

school lunch,” she said.

Eight years have passed since that happened, but Alvarez said her son still doesn’t like to eat school lunch.

“He waits until he comes home to eat,” Alvarez explained.

Her story and the stories she hears from many other moms in the Glenwood Springs are what motivated her to advocate for Healthy School Meals for All, a program that voters will decide on in the upcoming November election.

If voters approve Proposition FF, the state will create the Healthy School Meals for All Program, which will provide free school meals to students in public schools; pro-

4,500 backpacks with school supplies for Je co students in need

BY RYLEE DUNN RDUNN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Throughout the month of September, Xcel Energy staffers partnered with Arvada City Councilmember Lisa Smith to collect backpacks and school supplies for the Action Cen-

ter, a nonprofit based in Lakewood. The back-to-school drive collected 4,500 backpacks for Jefferson County Public School students in need.

Smith said she was thankful for Xcel’s philanthropic efforts, which were headed up by Xcel’s West Metro Community Service Manager

Daniel Trujillo.

“There are always children and families in need that often go unnoticed in our community,” Smith said. “Something as simple as getting a few members at your work to collect supplies can impact a young child’s life more than you know. Having leaders in the business community that care enough to step up to help the community is the example we hope to see in all our leaders.”

Daniel Hsu brings classical piano to Lakewood

BY ANDREW FRAIELI AFRAIELI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Lakewood Cultural Center has started its 2022-2023 season with the sounds of childhood, despair and trouble through the genius works of Schumann, Beethoven and Liszt, and the graceful hands of pianist Daniel Hsu.

“I think music should be felt, and I think that’s my real goal, my mission: to make others experience things that they normally wouldn’t,” said Hsu after his Sept. 29 Lakewood concert. A packed theater awaited him as he began with Scenes from Childhood by Robert Schumann, before moving on to Sonata No.31 in A-flat Major by Ludwig van Beethoven.

For this piece, he said Beethoven “writes the sounds of sobbing…,” and true to his description, Hsu played its simple and direct melodies with tragedy in mind. Tension hung on every note that Hsu played, silence portraying the despair and grief throughout as poignantly as the sharp notes themselves.

The Schumann, which brought out Hsu’s skill of highlighting every

singular tone, savoring every moment of silence in between for the feeling of pressure that it deserves, is where Hsu said he feels most comfortable.

“I just tend to like slow more.

The Schumann is kind of my home comfort territory, I just feel most comfortable,” he explained. And it

showed.

A native of San Francisco Bay Area, Daniel Hsu, 25, has toured Europe, Asia and North America, with upcoming performances with the Hamilton Philharmonic by Toronto, the Eugene Symphony in Eugene, Oregon, and the Jacksonville Symphony in Florida.

Finishing the program was Franz Liszt’s Sonata in B Minor, a notable departure form the previous two pieces, with Liszt’s style not lending to Hsu’s accentuation of silence, but paired on purpose Hsu said. The piece tells of a “character finding its way through despair and trouble,” Hsu described, continuing the more sublime, despairing feelings from Beetoven’s Sonata just

These pieces were chosen specifically by Hsu as well.

“What I’m really feeling, what I want to play is constantly evolving, constantly changing. Obviously I love all this music, I don’t play things on stage I don’t love because I feel someone else should do that,” he explained after his performance. “These pieces all mean a lot to me and mean specific things. At one point, these were the only pieces I wanted to play. Now, some time has passed, and I want to explore other things.”

In the audience for the first concert at the Cultural Center was Emily Gambone and her daughter Aria, 9. She wanted to show her daughter what was possible, as Aria had begun learning to play classical piano in January. They enjoyed the show, with Aria waiting afterwards to tell Hsu that she “admires him.”

The Lakewood Cultural Center’s season continues with acapella quartet Kings Return on Oct. 15, and SALT Contemporary Dance performing on Oct. 29.

EPA says no way out of reformulated gas

BY MICHAEL BOOTH THE COLORADO SUN

The Environmental Protection Agency can’t let Colorado

the hook for imposing more expensive reformulated gas to fight ozone pollution beginning in 2024, the agency said in a reply to Gov. Jared Polis’ objections and threats to sue.

The gas, which produces fewer ozone-contributing fumes, should cost about 3 cents a gallon more than normal gas formulations, according to an EPA review.

The EPA’s Washington headquarters told Polis that the Clean Air Act dating to the 1990s requires all penalized areas, like the nine counties of the northern Front Range, to switch to reformulated gas when the agency declares them in “severe” nonattainment for lung-damaging ozone.

The change in classification also requires Colorado’s Air Pollution Control Division to lower the threshold for stationary sources that must apply for permits to 25 tons of pollutants from the current 50 tons. Air pollution control officials have said that will add at least 400 new permits to an already backlogged system.

Emissions and air quality remains an issue in Colorado.

“The Clean Air Act provisions requiring the sale of (reformulated gas) in areas reclassified as Severe and the timing of those requirements are clear,” national EPA Administrator Michael Regan wrote to Polis. Regan did

say the EPA will try to work with Colorado on implementation, and noted the state has “20 months of lead time to prepare.”

The Polis administration did not back down from its objections after hearing from the EPA.

“Gov. Polis has been clear that he will pursue all legal strategies to avoid this outdated and ineffective requirement for reformulated gasoline,” spokesman Conor Cahill said. “It’s clear that this outdated policy would negatively impact Colorado’s most vulnerable, rewind environmental justice efforts and raise costs on people when they need their money

The Polis objection letter said the reformulated gas mandate has “the potential to exacerbate longstanding historic environmental injustices in communities near regional refineries. The mandate raises serious environmental justice questions, again particularly given the lack of realized benefits that accompany it.”

Suncor is the only major refinery in Colorado, and likely the one that would supply reformulated gas. While environmental groups and community leaders have asked the Polis administration to phase out Suncor’s Commerce City location altogether, air pollution regulators have recently required more stringent air monitoring at Suncor’s fence line and put new conditions on long-delayed permit renewals.

Polis’ letter said new construction required to supply reformulated gas and higher production levels could hamper air quality

progress in those neighborhoods.

While environmental groups do not believe reformulated gas will do much to solve the northern Front Range ozone problems, because current everyday formulations are much cleaner than when the 1990s law was passed, they also dismiss the Polis objections as “reelection-year theater.”

“There’s no way out of it. It’s going to happen,” said Jeremy Nichols of WildEarth Guardians. Colorado knew the ozone downgrade was coming for years, and Nichols likened the state’s reaction to a high school senior failing all their classes and then complaining they couldn’t graduate.

“If Gov. Polis truly cared about clean air and avoiding RFG, he’d

direct the air division to everything in their power to clean up ozone in the region and either avoid a severe classification or at least get out of it as quickly as possible,” Nichols said. “Instead, the air division has offered up an ozone cleanup plan that it admits will fail.”

The advocates and allies among metro area elected officials want the state to speed up the transition to lower-emission vehicles, pause air pollution permitting, and put more restrictions on Front Range oil and gas drilling as keys to reducing ozone faster.

The state’s proposals so far do not include those extras or others recommended by clean air coalitions.

“Pollution is now bad enough that more federal environmental protections are kicking in, which is exactly why the Clean Air Act exists in the first place,” said Jacob Smith of Colorado Communities for Climate Action, a

coalition of 40 local governments. “Trying to avoid the rules will mean it takes longer, costs more and leaves more people sick. The quickest path to not needing federal air quality protections is for Colorado to actually clean up the air we breathe.”

The new State Implementation Plan for ozone attainment that Polis highlighted in his original letter to the EPA acknowledges up front that Colorado can’t meet tighter 2015 standards by a 2024 deadline, noted Katherine Goff, a Northglenn City Council member and vice president of the communities coalition.

“There are enormous emissions sources that Colorado could clean up right now that would make a huge difference, but the proposed plan largely ignores them,” she said.

Suncor said on Sept. 28 it is working on a $36 million project to be ready to produce reformu-

lated gas by the 2024 summer driving season, and that they have state health department approval.

The Regional Air Quality Council estimates the new gas will reduce ozone-contributing emissions by 200 tons a year, Suncor said.

What the price differential will be is not clear, Suncor added, since much of it depends on how many other suppliers bring reformulated gas into the Front Range market. Suncor said it currently produces about one third of Colorado’s gasoline, half of the state’s diesel fuel, and 30% of the jet fuel for Denver International Airport.

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

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

The most involved for the class might have been Porytko’s bigos varenyky, or pierogies. After making the dough, people were shown how to roll and cut out the circles to then wrap the varenyky fi lling in. Porytko, who’s also the head chef of Misfi ts Snack Bar, had to fi nd another pan because, as he put it, he’d created a varenyky-making monster.

Shared electric scooters continue spread in Denver suburbs

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

for pedestrians — they’re often involved in injuries.

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

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

Right path

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Scooters leave Littleton, Aurora

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Arvada ties program near RTD line

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

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

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

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

ing to Patterson.

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

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

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

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

Thornton adds scooters

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

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

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

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

but numbers are unclear so far.

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

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

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

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

Brighton OKs scooters

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

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

Others without scooters Commerce City does not have

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

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

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

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

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

VOICES

Ballots will be mailed soon, so do your homework

The election season that seems to have gone on forever is about to conclude. I got my Blue Book last week, the county’s Gray Book will be arriving soon, and the county clerk starts mailing ballots Oct. 17. Prepare yourself: It’s going to be a very long one.

Not only are all the statewide offices on the ballot, so are seven countywide positions. Add to that eight state judges, 11 judges in our First Judicial District, 11 statewide ballot measures, and three referred by the Jefferson County commissioners.

Even for a political and policy wonk like me, it’s a bit overwhelming. However, we have three weeks to vote, so take the time to educate yourself and vote all the way to the end, where you will find some of the races and ballot measures that will affect you the most.

Top among them is Jeffco’s Question 1A, which would exclude some fees and state grants — not property taxes — from the TABOR cap, meaning the county could keep the money and not have to refund it to taxpayers.

Treasurer Jerry DiTullio tells me he is about to mail $17.5 million in checks to Jeffco residents because the revenue

LINDA ROCKWELL Columnist

the county received last year was more than it is allowed by TABOR to keep.

Meanwhile the county has been considering possible service cuts. Says Commissioner Lesley Dahlkemper: “Fortunately, the money available to us through the American Rescue Plan Act provides relief for 2023, but budget challenges remain into the future.”

The Jeffco League of Women Voters writes in its letter of support for 1A: “We believe that Article X, Section 20 of the Colorado Constitution, (TABOR), undermines the philosophy of representative government and imposes severe restrictions that prevent an equitable and flexible system of taxation, and reduces the ability of elected officials to provide adequate funding for schools, highways, public safety and necessary social programs, even in times of economic prosperity.”

I urge you to vote Yes on Question 1A. The other county questions, 1B and

1C, would permit marijuana manufacturing and sales in the unincorporated part of the county, and allow the commissioners to impose a tax on these sales. Pot shops in Evergreen? You decide.

You’re going to have to decide on a lot of other issues, too. Should all public school children receive free lunches? Should a portion of state income taxes be dedicated to increasing the supply of affordable housing? Should grocery stores be able to sell wine? Should the state income tax rate be reduced again?

I strongly urge you to reject this one, Proposition 121. Voters passed Proposition 116 just two years ago, reducing the flat tax rate for individual and corporate incomes from 4.63% to 4.55%. This would reduce it again to 4.40%, cutting state revenue by hundreds of millions of dollars. Over half the benefit would go to those with incomes over $1 million. It would leave less money for K-12 and higher education, for courts and prisons, for public health and human services, and for highway maintenance.

Coloradans are not over-taxed. According to Ballotpedia, Colorado has the lowest per-capita tax collections

of any adjacent state, at about 80% of the national average. One of the arguments for cutting taxes is that “Families and businesses are better off when they can keep more of their own money.” The fact is that families and businesses alone cannot provide a free education to all children, cannot fight crime, cannot deal with the opioid epidemic, cannot run elections and cannot protect our public lands. Taxes are the price we pay for civilization.

It is up to us to make sure that our elected representatives are spending our money wisely. If you don’t have time to communicate with them or attend budget hearings, at least stay informed. Good sources of unbiased information are vote411.org and Ballotpedia.org. Above all, make the time, do your part for democracy, and vote your entire ballot.

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.

Think your vote doesn’t matter? Think again.

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

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

“Politics is too polarized – I want nothing to do with it!” One reason parties are moving to the extremes is because the small number of voters who hold those extreme positions are more likely to vote than moderates. So,

the fewer people who vote, the more polarized politics becomes. Higher voter turnout (that means you) in primaries and midterm elections broadens representation and dilutes the influence of extremists.

“My vote isn’t secure.” The Justice Department, the Department of Homeland Security, the FBI and, closer to home, the Colorado State Department and the Colorado County Clerk Association have all confirmed that voting in Colorado is secure and safe from domestic and foreign interference.

“I don’t understand the issues.”

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

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

And now, the worst excuse of all. “The results are a foregone conclusion

and my vote won’t make a difference.” Actually, new districts based on the 2020 census were drawn in Colorado by independent commissions, which means that many districts are more competitive than ever before. The Colorado Sun recently reported that there are seven particularly competitive state senate districts, and that is enough to determine which party controls the chamber. In other words, results are anything but a foregone conclusion and your vote can sway the outcome.

Voting is one of the most important ways to exercise your opinion and help shape the community you want to live in. Your voice matters.

My election endorsements

Every year in October I write about the choices on the ballot for the fall election. It’s easy to write because explicit recommendations for candidates and ballot initiatives take up a lot of words. While I will make explicit recommendations for all offices up in Jefferson County this year, I think it is important to hear about the quality of candidates up for election. It is important now to realize whether or not someone running for office is a good person.

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

Ashley Wheeland, director of public policy for Hunger Free Colorado, is an advocate of this ballot measure. “We know that when kids have food, they learn, they do better, [have] less behavioral issues and it decreases childhood hunger when school meals are available to any kid who needs it in school,” she said.

As part of COVID-19 relief, the federal government covered the costs of school lunch meals for all students over the last two years. However, that funding expired ahead of the 2022-23 school year and all school districts in Colorado — except for Greeley-Evans County School District 6 — returned to charging students for

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

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

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

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

Jefferson County has three Congressional districts, CD2, CD-6 and CD-7. I’ve known Marshall Dawson the Republican nominee in CD-2 for a few years now. He is an excellent man that would make a good Congressman. Steve Monahan in CD-6 and Erik Aadland in CD-7. I’m voting for Molly Lamar for CD-6 representative to the State Board of Education. I’m voting for Joe O’Dea in the contest for the U.S. Senate.

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

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

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

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

This ballot measure would continue that relief families felt for school lunches throughout the state. If passed, it will only impact the schools that sign up for the program.

“If I’m being honest with you, families need to make the hard decision of paying for rent or food,” Alvarez said. “I have four jobs to be able to provide for my children. We all think about the basic necessities: where to sleep, a roof over their heads, what to wear, what to eat. But one of these necessities is always affected to be able to provide fully for them.”

Rosenberry Lecture series returns to in person

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

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

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

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

Some of the discussions attendees can look forward to include:

Black STEM professionals emphasize representation

BY LINDSEY FORD ROCKY MOUNTAIN PBS

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

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

“We try to break down that stigma that a scientist only has blonde hair and blue eyes,” Earl White said of CABPES. “A scientist can look like you, a scientist can look like me.”

White, a Black man, is a board member for CABPES in addition to working as a math tutor, advisor and volunteer with the organization.

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

According to 2019 data collected by the National Science Board (NSB), Black or African American workers make up 12% of the U.S. working population but represent just 9% of STEM workers. White people, on the other hand, are overrepresented in

the STEM field; White people make up 61% of the American workforce but they make up 65% of those working in STEM.

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

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

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

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

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

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

“Just from a younger age I was watching TV and I saw really cool

things, like on PBS … with rockets, engines ... And I got more interested,” he said.

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

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

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

Heidi Ganahl, Jared Polis debate EVs, taxes and more

BY ANDREW KENNEY COLORADO PUBLIC RADIO

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

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

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

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

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

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

Ganahl said: “Well, you can.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The incumbent’s response? “Lend

me yours … I’ll just borrow yours.”

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

This head-to-head may set the template for the final weeks of the election. Ganahl blamed Polis for high energy costs, bank robberies, rising cocaine and fentanyl use, the auto theft rate and more, and called his COVID-19 response overreaching and underhanded.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

On criminal justice, Ganahl criticized Polis for reducing the sentence of Rogel Lazaro Aguilera-Mederos, the truck driver at fault in a crash that killed four people on I-70, from 110 years to a decade. (Ganahl said the governor at least should have waited before acting, a criticism echoed by the district attorney in the case.)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

“The stakes are so high here, and again, we produce the

Political ads are costly during Broncos games

Big

BY SANDRA FISH AND JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

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

And 2022 is no exception.

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

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

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

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

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

game.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

cleanest energy on the planet right here in Colorado. Let’s get them back to work,” she said. (Colorado’s drilling rig count has shrunk by more than two-thirds while Polis has been in office. That mirrors the trends seen nationwide, including in conservative states like Texas, amid fluctuating oil prices during the pandemic.)

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

“She chose an election denier,” he said.

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

In her final statement, Ganahl warned of a dark future under Polis.

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

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

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

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

O cial state fish makes second comeback

KEVIN SIMPSON AND MICHAEL BOOTH

COLORADO

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

That greenback cutthroat trout

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

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

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

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

Seeing the results of that ongoing effort proved especially gratifying.

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

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

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

Workers at the Mount Shavano State Fish Hatchery in Salida and

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Local professor

BY ELLIS ARNOLD COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Unpacking loneliness

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

lonely?” Mullen told Colorado Commu nity Media.

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

Looking for study participants

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

A problem on the rise

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

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

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

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

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

No. 2 Columbine rushes for seven TDs in win over Pomona

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

LAKEWOOD — Columbine running backs MarquaneTaylor and Josh Snyder had no issues finding the end zone Thursday, Sept. 29, at Jeffco Stadium.

Taylor and Snyder combined to score seven touchdowns in the Class 5A Jeffco League opener against Pomona. The Rebels — No. 2 in this week’s CHSAANow.com Class 5A football rankings — took a 50-21victory over the Panthers.

“Both (Taylor and Snyder) ran hard and blocked well for each other,” Columbine coach Andy Lowry said as the Rebels rushed for 471 yards on the ground in the win. “They are making plays right now.”

Taylor had touchdown runs of 38, 1, 56 and 2 yards in the first half. The Rebels held a 29-14 lead at the break.

Snyder got into the scoring act with touchdown carries of 2 and 77 yards in the third quarter as Columbine (6-0, 1-0 in 5A Jeffco) extended its lead to 43-21 heading to the final quarter.

“Coach Lowry knows what he is doing,” Snyder said of the Rebels’ rushing attack. “When things are working they are working. Marquane Taylor had a great game with five touchdowns. I’ll block for him. I’ll do anything. It’s awesome.”

Pomona (1-5, 0-1) had its longest scoring drive of the game, 9-play 77-yard drive that was capped off by a 3-yard touchdown run by freshman Luis Santana with 1:56 left in the third quarter to cut Columbine’s lead to 36-21.

However, Taylor had the Rebels’ longest run of the night with a 77-yard touchdown run less than a minute later to push the lead back up to three scores.

“It felt great,” Snyder said of his 77-yard touchdown run late in the third quarter. “All the glory to God.

My hoggies (offensive line) and backs were blocking for me. I really didn’t have to do much on that run. I just had to make one guy miss and they did the rest.”

Taylor went over the 200-yard mark on the night with a 71-yard touchdown run after the Rebels’ defense forced a third Pomona turnover on the night with less than

five minutes to play. It was the fifth rushing touchdown for Taylor to give him 15 rushing touchdowns on the season.

“Obviously, it’s a monster with trying to stop Andy’s (Lowry’s offense),” Pomona coach Nathan Johnson said. “We knew that we could hopefully move the ball. A couple of plays just didn’t go our way. I’m proud of our kids.”

Pomona senior quarterback Sawyer Woods — out-of-state transfer

from Utah — had touchdown passes to freshmen Max Lovett and Emmitt Munson in the first half that cut the Rebels’ lead to 22-14 midway through the second quarter.

“That is a tough football team,” Lowry said of Pomona. “Those kids played their butts off tonight. We have some work ahead of us.”

Pomona had the ball at midfield with a chance to completely erase Columbine’s lead in the second quarter, but a big interception by Columbine senior Sam Schraeder set up a late first-half touchdown by the Rebels.

Columbine senior Payton Wainwright had another key interception on Pomona’s first drive of the second half that led to Snyder’s first touchdown run.

“We’ve been talking a lot about growth,” Johnson said after the Panthers’ fifth straight loss after a Week 1 win over Thomas Jefferson.

“We are continuing to climb the mountain and get better each practice. I’m proud of what I saw on the field. We are expecting to beat Chatfield next week.”

Pomona hosts Chatfield at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 6, at the North Area Athletic Complex.

Columbine had its biggest challenge of the season facing No. 5 Ralston Valley at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 7, back at Jeffco Stadium.

“We just have to keep working and grinding during practice,” Snyder said. “We’ve got to fix a couple of things. We’ve got to be ready for Ralston Valley. We’ll be ready.”

Chatfield keeps the momentum going with win over A-West

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

LAKEWOOD — It hasn’t been all sunshine-and-rainbows for Chatfield football this season.

The Chargers — last year’s Class 4A state champions — started the season 0-4 in the first year playing in 5A. Chatfield has been able to gain some positive momentum with back-to-back wins the last two weeks.

“Last week I said that game was something to build on,” Chatfield coach Kris Rosholt said of the Chargers’ win two weeks ago against Dakota Ridge. “Our boys took it and ran with it.”

Chatfield took a 42-28 win over Arvada West in a game that featured sunshine, rain, lightning and rainbows at Jeffco Stadium on Friday, Sept. 30.

“It is super big for momentum,” Chatfield sophomore running back Brock Narva said of a second straight win for Chatfield. “Every game is our biggest game from here on out. We all played well tonight.”

A-West (2-4, 0-1 in 5A Jeffco) and

Chatfield (2-4, 1-0) were aiming to get off on the right foot when it came to league play. The Wildcats and Chargers both game into Jeffco Stadium with below .500 non-league records, but knew a conference win could turn the tide in a hurry.

Chatfield jumped out to an early 21-0 first-half lead on A-West. Narva

did the scoring damage in the first quarter for the Chargers. Narva had touchdown runs of 3 and 2 yards in the first quarter to give Chatfield a 14-0 lead.

“To win in 5A football you have to be able to run the ball,” Rosholt said. “That is something we knew we needed to get better at. It has been a

focal point the last couple of weeks.”

Junior linebacker Avery DeWeese had a big interception of A-West quarterback Ethan Cook that set the Chargers up on the Wildcats’ 23-yard. Four plays later Narva scored his second touchdown with 3 minutes left in the quarter.

“I have not been great in pass coverage. I’m more of a power guy, but tonight I saw my opportunity,” DeWeese said of his interception. “I think it was a statement of leadership. I want to lead these guys.”

Chatfield junior quarterback Jake Jones threw a great fade to junior Colin Mote with 10:26 left in the second quarter to push the Chargers’ lead to 21-0. The Wildcats were in good position to get on the scoreboard on the next drive, but Cook was intercepted in the end zone by senior Blake Cowgill.

“Every week we want to win the turnover margin. That is huge,” DeWeese said. “If our defense can give our offense more opportunities that’s

whole point.”

Minutes later the game went into a 30-minute lightning delay.

The delay seemed to give A-West a much-needed spark. Cook hit senior Brady Witherspoon for a 49-yard touchdown with 4:45 left before halftime to cut Chatfield’s lead to 21-7.

A-West had another good chance for a score before halftime, but a hit by junior Cole Roybal on Cook forced a fumble and DeWeese fell on the loose ball for the recovery on the Chargers’ 18-yard line.

Chatfield answered the bell after halftime with a drive that ate up nearly half of the third quarter. Narva capped off a 60-yard, 9-play scoring drive with his third touchdown of the game with a 2-yard run. The Chargers led 28-7 with 6:41 left in the third quarter.

“Our offensive line really played well tonight. They were getting on

their blocks downfield,” Narva said.

After a 35-yard touchdown pass from Cook to senior Andrew Martinez, Chatfield was able to answer again with an 82-yard scoring drive that Jones finished with a short touchdown run on the final play of the fourth quarter.

Cook hooked up with Witherspoon for touchdowns of 9 and 44 yards in the fourth quarter. Chatfield senior Zane Aplanalp scored on a short touchdown run for the Chargers for their final score.

Chatfield heads to NAAC next week. The Chargers face Pomona (1-5, 0-1) on Thursday, Oct. 6, in Arvada.

“We are going to keep rolling and plugging away,” DeWeese said.

A-West will play its homecoming game next Friday night at the North Area Athletic Complex. The Wildcats face winless Lakewood with a 7:30 pm kickoff start.

No. 1 Columbine in driver’s seat in hotly contested 5A Je co race

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

LITTLETON — The muchanticipated softball showdown between No. 3 Valor Christian and No. 1 Columbine turned into a one-sided affair in a hurry Wednesday, Sept. 28.

The top-ranked Rebels had a 7-run second inning to break the Class 5A Jeffco League game wide-open. Columbine eventually took a 11-1 victory in six innings to stay undefeated on the season.

“It was more excitement more than nervousness,” Columbine freshman Livi Keiter said about the key top-3 matchup. “Then the football and boys soccer teams showed up and started getting loud. Then I kind of got hyped and a little nervous. It was a cool feeling.”

Columbine (19-0, 5-0 in 5A Jeffco) put the game on ice sending 10 batters to the plate in the second inning. It looked like the Rebels would have to settle for a 2-0 lead with a couple of deep sacrifice fly RBIs by freshman Nina Vargas and sophomore Katie Forbes.

However, with two outs sophomore Ana Lovato’s speed forced a throwing error that kept the inning going. Junior Kenzie Sobieski had an RBI double and Keiter followed up with an RBI single. Junior Addie Branch added a single and

then senior ace pitcher Araya Ogden helped herself out with a 3-run home run to make it a 7-0 lead.

“We just kind of wait for our team to catch fire and we get contributions from different players,” Columbine coach Jim Santaniello said. “We know that wave is coming and we just sit back and enjoy what they do.”

Columbine has scored nine or more runs in the last eight games.

“That was huge,” Keiter said of the 7-run second inning. “One of the biggest parts for us is it doesn’t always start in the first inning for us. Sometimes it takes a few innings, but we always have that one big rally.”

Forbes added a solo home run of Valor starting pitcher Olivia Schmidt in the third inning to stretch the lead to 8-0.

Ogden was overpowering and used her change-up on the mound to throw a 1-hitter. The lone hit for the Eagles (14-4, 4-1) came on a bunt single by junior Mckayla Kanter in the third inning. Ogden’s ERA dropped to 0.95 as she struck out nine to picked up her 16th victory.

“I knew Valor could hit fast pitches and I needed to use my off-speed today,” Ogden said.

The lone run Valor could muster up came after a throwing error by Ogden on a comebacker. Junior Charlsie Kulbe

reached on the error and would eventually score on a sacrifice fly by junior Kaylie Whidden in the top of the sixth inning to make it a 8-1 lead for the Rebels.

Columbine answered with Keiter driving in a pair with a shot down the left-field line in the bottom of the sixth. Ogden hit a walk-off RBI single up the middle that drove in Keiter to induce the 10-run mercy rule.

“I felt like today they had even more calmness and confidence. You can see it growing,” Santaniello said. “They expect to play well and it was so awesome for all the other sports to come over and support us. It’s that great culture we have at Columbine.”

The biggest game left on Columbine’s league schedule will be a showdown against No. 4 Chatfield at 4 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 6 on the Chargers’ home field.

Chatfield (15-5, 3-1) could force a tie or even a 3-way tie for the league title with a win over the Rebels.

“We had a feeling it was going to come down to us and Chatfield,” Santaniello said of the league title. “It looks like it is shaping up that way.”

Columbine senior pitcher Araya Ogden has a 0.95 ERA this season. The Rebels can win the Class 5A Je co League title with a victory over rival Chatfield on Thursday, Oct. 6.
