BY KRISTIN OH, SUZIE GLASSMAN, THELMA GRIMES A SPECIAL REPORT FROM COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA AND SENTINEL COLORADO

Ali Lombard has wanted to be a teacher since she was a little kid. She said it is her calling. “My favorite part about being a teacher is the relationships with kids,” she said. “I’m sure all of us as adults have teachers that we can remember.” Now in her 10th year, Lombard teaches fifth graders at Fox Hollow Elementary School in the Cherry Creek School District. However, her dream career has been clouded with obstacles, primarily money. Low salaries and more responsibilities amid the rising cost of living have pushed teachers like Lombard out of one Colorado school district in search of another, leaving some school systems struggling to attract and

retain educators. Turnover rates in several metro area districts are hovering between 13%-21%. That’s higher than the national average teacher turnover rate, which was 10% by the end of the 2021-22 school year, according to a report by RAND Corp., a nonprofit policy think tank based in California. RAND also reported that the turnover rate was highest, approximately 12%-14%, in “urban districts, high poverty districts, and districts serving predominantly students of color.” Across Colorado, the turnover picture is bleaker than that in many school districts. That’s according to the most recent data from the Colorado Department of Education, which compares the 2022-23 and 2021-22 school years. SEE TEACHERS, P2

TEACHERS FROM PAGE 1

In the Denver metro area, where districts can employ hundreds of teachers, turnover rates look like this: • Douglas County Schools, 20% • Cherry Creek Schools, 13% • Littleton Public Schools, 14% • JeffCo Schools, 16% • Adams 12 Five Star Schools, 18% • Aurora Public Schools, 21% • Denver Public Schools, 21% Education and national experts say some of the turnover is driven by teachers searching for bigger paychecks. As an experienced teacher with a master’s degree, Lombard said she was searching for a salary that “reflected a little bit more of [her] professional capacity.” And, Lombard echoed what many teachers and their unions have said in recent years: teacher responsibilities have multiplied. For instance, teachers often act as the classroom’s social worker and psychologist, work that’s become more necessary as some students face difficulties regulating their

emotions and work on their social skills due to years of pandemic related isolation and learning gaps.

“The expectations have grown,” Lombard said. “Our compensation has not, unfortunately.” So, she left her previous job in the Douglas County School District in favor of Cherry Creek, where she saw a salary bump of $15,000 a year. No state law nor agency regulates teachers salaries, so they vary among school districts. There is also no statewide-minimum pay for educators. The salary for entry level teachers in Douglas County is currently the lowest among school districts in the Denver metro area. An entry level teacher with a bachelor’s degree is paid $45,209 a year, according to the district’s salary schedule. The salaries for first-year teachers with a bachelor’s degree in other metro area districts are thousands of dollars per year higher: • Aurora Public Schools currently pays $46,894 (the teachers union is currently negotiating with the board of education on their contract) • Littleton Public Schools, pays

$51,274 • JeffCo Schools $52,625 • Denver Public Schools pays $54,141 • Adams 12 Five Star Schools pays $58,000 • Cherry Creek Schools District pays $58,710 Salaries for a first-year teacher with a master’s degree are even higher: • Douglas County $49,880 (the lowest in the metro area) • Littleton Public Schools pays $56,028 • JeffCo Schools pays $56,919 • Adams 12 Five Star Schools pays $61,000 • Denver Public Schools pays $62,695 • Cherry Creek School District pays $66,332 The Aurora Public Schools the contract is under negotiation. Fairchild said that while test scores are high in Douglas County School District, they might eventually come down if the district loses too many experienced teachers and can’t attract talented new ones. Josh Miller, the principal of Parker’s Cherokee Trail Elementary School, said the pay discrepancy hits the district in what he called the “sweet spot.” That’s where there’s a high number of teachers with experience ranging from two to three years up through those nearing retirement who could be lured away. “Other school districts are in the same ballpark as we are, so a lot of people are struggling in some of those areas, but again, we have the added need for more competitive pay,” Douglas County School District’s Chief Human Resources Officer Amanda Thompson told her school board in September. With concerns like those as the backdrop, voters on Nov. 7 narrowly approved a $66-million-a-year package to increase pay for Douglas County School District teachers and staff. Douglas County Federation, the union that represents teachers in the district, cheered the results. SEE TEACHERS, P7

With the Rise of Electronic Contracts, Agents May Not Be Fully Explaining Documents

When I first was licensed as a real estate agent 20 years ago, we hand delivered listing agreements and other documents and would go through them paragraph-by-paragraph before asking buyers or sellers to sign them. Now that electronic contracts and electronic signatures are commonplace, that’s not happening so much, and I think that’s a problem — one that may have contributed to the recent verdict against seller agents offering compensation to agents who produce a buyer for their listings. I am guilty of this myself. When I am in a listing presentation I bring my laptop and like to compose a listing agreement while the seller is at hand, explaining each entry that I make in the 12page document. But just as often I will prepare the document at my desk and send it to the client for review and signing, saying, “Call me with any questions.” I don’t believe I am any different than 90% of my colleagues in that practice. I must admit, however, that doing so is not adequate, and I’m committed to

Korey Stites ran uncontested for his Wheat Ridge City Council seat. He campaigned COURTESY PHOTO instead for voting “yes” on the sales tax ballot issue. BY JO DAVIS JDAVIS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Wheat Ridge voters took up the issue of whether to extend or discontinue a half-cent sales tax that promises to improve sidewalks and bike paths for the next 20 years. Drainage projects and other improvements would also be covered by the tax that voters were strongly favoring as of 10 a.m. on Nov. 7. The issue has 7,410 votes, or 70.09% of all votes cast. The existing tax is expected to raise $38.5 million to fund infrastructure projects. It would expire in December 2029. City Manager Patrick Goff said earlier this year that a funding cap would be hit by 2024 and the bal-

Three surveys had indicated that Wheat Ridge residents supported the tax extension.. “In all three surveys, respondents overwhelmingly supported an extension of the tax for primary street corridor improvements, filling sidewalk gaps, other sidewalk repair and drainage and flood plain improvements,” Goff said at an August public hearing. For more information on Wheat Ridge’s elections, check out the Jefferson County Elections page https://coloradocommunitymedia. com/your-2023-jefferson-countyelection-news/. people,” Rein said. “I know that now the hard part is ahead, and I’m looking forward to that challenge.” In Ward 5, Jacob LaBure is running to take over Mary Janssen’s seat. Janssen is not term-limited but is not seeking re-election. “(Election night) was a great night for Lakewood, and a great opportunity to create a more forward-thinking city,” LaBure said. “Lakewood voters want solutions and they sent a strong team to city hall to address them. I’m looking forward to working with the new council to address: crime, housing issues, sustainability, homelessness, and infrastructure. I am looking forward to getting to work!”

The push for higher teacher salaries in Colorado is far from new. Teachers and their supporters from Douglas and Jefferson counties cheer during a teacher rally in Denver at the state Capitol in 2018. Since then, teacher pay has been an ongoing concern and political issue facing SENTINEL COLORADO FILE PHOTO many metro area school districts.

TEACHERS FROM PAGE 2

“We’re so pleased with the outcome of 5A, which will provide long overdue raises for our educators,” the federation announced on Facebook. Pay has also been stepped up for teachers in other districts in recent months and years. Yet, even with raises, teachers have been persistent in their calls for more financial support, especially amid the tight metro–area economy. Possible Solutions

The level of state funding has prevented school districts from providing “greater support for public education and schools,” according to Colorado

Association of School Board Executive Director, Jubal Yennie. “Total funding in public education and for average teacher salaries in Colorado have typically been in the lowest quartertile compared to other states,” he said. Some school districts stepped up to raise teacher pay after inflation last year hit its highest level nationally in four decades. And, since then, the Denver metro area’s Consumer Price Index has risen by 4.7%. The index measures the average change over time in the prices urban consumers pay for typical goods. Douglas County saw the smallest salary increase from the 2022-23 school year to this school year among metro districts, according to data collected from school districts’ public salary schedules. The pay for Douglas County’s entry level teachers with a bachelor’s degree in-

creased by $1,529, compared to Cherry Creek, which saw the highest salary increase. Salaries for Cherry Creek’s entry-level teachers increased by $14,580 from the beginning of last school year to this school year. Adams 12 Five Star Schools, which serves more than 36,000 students in schools in Federal Heights, Northglenn, Thornton, Westminster and Broomfield, raised starting-teacher salaries to $58,000 a year from the previous school year. That’s an increase of more than $12,000. Lower salaries also can result in some teachers, like Susan Fairchild, commuting dozens of miles every weekday to get to work. SEE TEACHERS, P10

Michelle Applegate and Erin Kenworthy win Jeffco School Board race Candidates backed by the Jefferson County Education Association gain two seats on the 5-member board BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Candidates Michelle Applegate and Erin Kenworthy have won two open school board seats by 58.41% and 42.15%, according to unofficial election results. With 99.2% of the ballots of the county’s ballots counted, it’s unlikely either candidate could lose their lead. Applegate had 103,692 votes for the District 3 seat, representing portions of Wheat Ridge, Arvada and north-central Lakewood. Kenwor-

thy had 73,741 votes for the District 4 seat, representing central/southcentral Lakewood and Edgewater. In District 3, Applegate led her opponent Thomas Wicke by nearly 17 percentage points and 30,000 votes. While in District 4, Kenworthy led her opponents Amara Hildebrand and Joel Newton by approximately 14,500 and 31,900 votes. “We are grateful for the support of our Jeffco community in our efforts to join the Jeffco School Board,” Applegate said. “Our students deserve leadership that will work collaboratively to ensure that they have safe, thriving schools, supported educators and staff, and learning opportunities that meet their strengths and interests as they prepare to enter college or the workforce.” Kenworthy also said she appreciates the support she received from educators, staff and the community. “I’m looking forward to working

with other elected officials to address the needs of all Jeffco school communities. Educating our students is a team effort, and Michelle and I are excited to be a part of that team, and look forward to joining current board members Paula Reed, Mary Parker and Danielle Varda, and working with Superintendent Tracy Dorland, to keep Jeffco moving forward,” Kenworthy said. Applegate and Kenworthy received support from the Jefferson County Education Association, the district’s teacher’s union. “We are looking forward to having collaborative conversations with our new school board members as we move Jeffco public schools forward,” said Brooke Williams, Art educator and union president. “Our voters in Jeffco have spoken, and it’s clear that they value retaining the best educators. We are excited to work with them to ensure all students, regardless of race, gender, religious beliefs, ability, and socio-economic status, have safe and supported learning environments.” Michelle Applegate has three children in Jefferson County schools. She calls herself a lifelong education supporter and says she’ll bring her experience as an engineer and district volunteer to her role as a board member. During the campaign, Applegate said her main priorities are “ensur-

ing Jeffco has strong, thriving public schools, making safety a part of the student experience, and building trust through budget transparency.” When it comes to how to best use the district’s closed schools, Applegate said, “We must build and maintain working partnerships with local municipalities, Jefferson County, families and community members to identify areas of community needs or wants and find mutually beneficial, collaborative solutions for closed school facilities.” Applegate will replace incumbent Stephanie Schooley, who chose not to run for re-election. Erin Kenworthy has two children in Jefferson County and has over 18 years of experience in public schools and community-focused non-profits. Kenworthy believes teacher pay and retention is the most significant issue facing the district. To save money, Kenworthy said in a candidate Q&A, “We can focus on reducing costs associated with teacher turnover by attracting and retaining the highly qualified teachers we need and have in our district already. I’d advocate in favor of funding special education resources to avoid legal costs associated with not meeting legal requirements in individualized education plans.” SEE RACE, P23

Despite having worked at Sage Canyon Elementary School in Castle Rock since 2009, which is in Douglas County, she can’t afford to live in that community. Instead, she lives in Aurora because that’s what she can afford. She also works extra jobs to make ends meet. “It is disheartening,” Fairchild said. Fairchild said the cost of housing exacerbates the issue because it isn’t affordable for many teachers she works alongside in Douglas County. The median price for a home in Aurora was $495,000 in October. In Highlands Ranch, it was $747,000, according to Realtor.com. In Denver, median home sales prices were $600,000 and $625,000 in Arvada.

November 16, 2023No Average apartment rental prices reflected similar trends in those communities. “I live in Cherry Creek, so yeah, I don’t have another way to say it,” Fairchild said. “People who are coming and wanting to be teachers are not even considering Douglas County. For sure (pay rates compared to other districts) is a problem.” That leaves some school districts that don’t have as much to pay looking for other ways to lure and retain instructors. Douglas County Schools Superintendent Erin Kane said the shortterm retention efforts the district has made — such as offering discounted before-and-after-school care for staff, limiting health care costs, annual stipends and even free meals — helped keep the turnover rate from being even higher. So far this school year, more than 26,000 free meals have been served

to Douglas County staff members. Funds for tuition reimbursement for teachers’ professional development are already exhausted for the year. Kane said boasting benefits instead of offering competitive pay is not sustainable. “The district has made such tremendous short-term efforts to retain staff, but it’s really important for our public to understand that those short-term efforts are not long-term solutions, and it’s like putting a Band-Aid on a big problem,” Kane said. “All leading indicators, such as the job decline rate, are extremely troubling.” State Sen. Janet Buckner, chairperson of the Senate Education Committee, acknowledged teachers’ struggle with making a living wage, among other concerns. She also said that she is a cheerleader for teachers in the state government.

“My role on the Education Committee is to ensure that we can do everything we can. And I know it sounds mundane, but we need to do everything we can to elevate education in the state of Colorado,” Buckner said. “Public education is our foundation. And that’s why the public has to be supportive.” Gov. Jared Polis announced this month that he wants to spend $564.1 million on the next budget year to strengthen schools. If approved by legislators, per-pupil funding would increase by an average of $705, or $15,500 for a classroom with 22 students. This would be on top of last year’s per-pupil funding of $1,019. The governor’s proposed budget will also provide $8 million to support STEM education and enrichment programs and $5 million for work-based learning. SEE TEACHERS, P11

“We really believe that we will have enough money to improve teachers salaries, conditions, etcetera,” Buckner said of the proposed budget. Education Associations

In Aurora Public Schools, district officials recently sounded the alarm for board members to pay close attention to teacher salary issues. Months into the school year, the district has not finalized a contract with their teacher union. On Sept. 29, APS Superintendent Michael Giles sent a letter to staff about ongoing negotiations between the board and the Aurora Education Association. He wrote that he lacked the

“confidence that a salary increase for licensed staff would come this calendar year.” He also wrote that he “is greatly concerned about our ability to attract new teachers with our current starting teacher salary while also retaining veteran teachers.” The letter states that, on average, teachers received a 9% salary increase last year, but that the district paid for it with money from district reserves because of a “oneyear lag in inflation adjustments’’ and because the “district’s per pupil revenue only increased by 3.5%” in the 2022-23 school year. Giles also stated that the district also made more than “$6.5 million in administrative cuts first to keep school budgets untouched.” During an Oct. 24 APS board meeting, two people spoke during open discussion about giving veteran teachers higher salaries. According to a Sept. 29 letter

from APS Superintendent Michael Giles, the teacher union turned down the district’s proposal for salary raises, which would have given first-year teachers a $10,000 raise. The education association refuted the initial proposal because veteran teachers, who have at least six years experience, would have received the lowest salary increase. Giles’ letter does not include when the district first gave this proposal to the education association. Giles’ letter stated that on Sept. 20, the district amended the proposal to increase the salary for veteran teachers from $923 to $2,600. “However, in order to meet this increased compensation proposal, we would need to reduce school budgets by 1%-2%. Given differences in budgeting and staffing, the impact of the budget reduction would vary across the school district,” Giles wrote in his letter.

Teacher raises have been the focus of teachers and administrators across the metro region. Earlier this year, the Jefferson County Education Association, the union representing Jeffco Schools teachers, negotiated a 5.25% pay raise with the district. “While the increase was a good start, if the district wants to remain competitive with other metro-area districts, more work needs to be done,” said Brooke Williams, JCEA president. Like Douglas County teacher Ali Lombard, education, Williams said, is a calling. “But I still think it’s really important for educators to receive a living wage so they can live in the areas where they teach,” she added. “First and foremost, teachers are the cornerstone of our educational system.” SEE TEACHERS, P12

Experts provide tips to keep sleeping babies safe BY HALEY LENA HLENA@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended that babies be placed on their back to sleep in the 1990s, the number of sleeprelated infant deaths declined for a period of time but have plateaued since then. Today, unsafe infant sleep is the leading cause of preventable death for children under the age of 1 in Colorado and nationally.

Within a five year span (2017 to 2021) in Colorado, 241 babies passed away from Sudden Unexpected Infant Death, said Amanda Abramczyk-Thill, an injury prevention and outreach specialist for Children’s Hospital Colorado. Sudden Unexpected Infant Death includes Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, otherwise known as SIDS, which is the sudden and unexplained death of an infant younger than 1 year old. Accidental suffocation and stran-

gulation in bed, ill-defined deaths and undetermined causes also fall under the umbrella of Sudden Unexpected Infant Death. Over half of the deaths within the five year period involved an asphyxiation risk, an adult or another individual rolled on top of the baby while sleeping or the baby was wedged between two objects, said Abramczyk-Thill. With no guaranteed way to prevent SIDS, a safe sleep environment will help lower the risk of all sleep-

other metro districts, its schools have become a training ground where new teachers leave after a few years in search of better compensation. Burnout is also real and part of the problem, as Williams sees it, is linked to high turnover.

For instance, Williams said she saw a special education teacher position go unfilled for a year. While the school split the caseload among the other teachers and compensated them more, she said it isn’t fair to expect that kind of situation to continue without teachers getting overloaded. Ashlee Hoppe, a special education teacher at Summit Ridge Middle School, said she’s in her 11th year of teaching and still trying to make ends meet. She lives with a roommate and despite doing all she can to cut her expenses, she can’t afford to go on trips or to start working on her Master’s degree to move up on the district’s pay scale. “I’m already making decisions on if I can afford to go to my doctor, or do I need to put food on the table? I’ve had to drastically cut back on what I can provide for students in the classroom because I can’t afford it,” said Hoppe. While many teachers are leaving for better paying jobs in other school districts, or just leaving the industry altogether, there are still some determined to stay in their classrooms. Carmen Curtis Basham, a high school teacher at Aurora’s Rangeview High School, said she turned down offers from Cherry Creek because she already set roots in APS. She said that she’s “made peace” with her compensation. “A part of my core belief is service above self and I chose this job because I make a difference in this world. And yes, I have friends who also have math degrees who make more doing other things, but I don’t think they’re as satisfied,” she said. Now, she serves as a mentor to early career teachers and teachers

related infant deaths. What research shows

In the United States, nearly 3,500 infants die each year of sleep-related infant deaths, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics updated 2022 policy statement. Children’s Hospital Colorado states between 50 to 80 babies have died from SIDS each year in Colorado since 2004. SEE BABIES, P13

new to the school district. Her regular advice for them is to not feel guilty about leaving a school district to work for a different one closer to home. She encouraged them to spend more time with family than commuting. This story is a collaboration between Sentinel Colorado, which covers Aurora and surrounding areas, and Colorado Community Media, which covers two dozen communities in the Denver area. Editor’s Note: The teachers and administrators who participated in Colorado Community Media’s story were interviewed in late evening, away from any Douglas County School District properties.

BABIES FROM PAGE 12

Additionally, most deaths occur in babies between two and four months of age and the rate of SIDS tends to increase during the colder months, according to Children’s Hospital Colorado. Multiple sources have said African American babies are twice as likely and Native American babies are about three times more likely to die of SIDS than white babies. Although there has been research into SIDS, doctor’s don’t know the exact reason why SIDS affects infants. However, there are factors in a baby’s sleep environment that can put them at higher risk. “What we’re finding with further investigation of the actual circumstances is that a lot more cases involve that accidental suffocation and strangulation,” said Abramczyk-Thill. “They’re also finding that it may be undetermined.” The single largest risk factor for SIDS is stomach sleeping. Some researchers believe that the sleeping position puts pressure on the baby’s jaw, narrowing the airway and therefore, making breathing more difficult. Other possible theories provided by Children’s Hospital Colorado include that the position would increase the baby’s risk of “rebreathing” exhaled air. When a baby breathes in exhaled air, the available oxygen level in the body decreases. Another theory suggests there could be an abnormality in the part of the brain that controls breathing and helps the baby wake up during sleep. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, the risk of sleeprelated infant death can be up to 67 times higher when a baby sleeps with someone on a couch, soft armchair or cushion. Other factors that put babies at a higher risk for SIDS include but are not limited to overheating from excessive sleepwear or blankets, covering the baby’s head and low birth weight. Expert recommendations and tips

Experts encourage parents, caregivers and grandparents to follow the ABCs of safe sleep. A is for alone. Don’t sleep in the same bed as the baby, instead,

place a crib next to the bed. B is for back. Place the baby on their back to sleep, which includes naps. “It also helps their lungs expand to the way they’re supposed to,” said Abramczyk-Thill. “So they can get the necessary oxygen and air so they can breathe while they are sleeping.” Babies can be placed on their tummy for supervised play time. As every baby is different, Abramczyk-Thill said it is important to speak with your pediatrician about those guidelines and timelines for your baby’s development. C is for crib. Experts say to use a crib or a bassinet that meets current safety standards of the Consumer Product Safety Commission at CPSC.gov. Within the crib, provide the baby with a firm sleep surface and keep the crib empty. Remove loose bedding, bumpers, blankets and toys as they can be a choking, suffocation or strangulation hazard. Abramczyk-Thill recommends alternatives to blankets, such as onesies or what is called a sleep sack. “That helps them maintain warmth while they’re sleeping without it potentially being a blanket that can get loose and can move up to their mouth and become a suffocation hazard,” said Abramczyk-Thill. Also, with the holidays approaching, Abramczyk-Thill encourages those traveling somewhere to ensure they have the infant’s separate sleep space, whether it’s a pack and play, crib or bassinet. When an infant is in a properly installed car seat in the vehicle, it’s safe for the infant to be in the car seat for up to an hour and a half to two hours. Take breaks at regular intervals to allow the baby to be removed from the car seat and held. “The car seat is not a safe sleep space outside of the vehicle,” said Abramczyk-Thill. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that if a baby falls asleep in a car seat, stroller, swing or sling, to remove the baby to a firm sleep surface on their backs as soon as possible. In addition to avoiding smoke exposure around the baby, alcohol and illicit drug or substance use, breastfeeding has shown to decrease the risk of SIDS. While it is not entirely clear why breastfeeding reduces the risk of sleep-related infant death, research

in an American Academy of Pediatrics article suggests that breastfed infants are more easily aroused from sleep, the maternal responses to infant cues may be stronger and it improves baby’s immune systems. Additional resources

The American Academy of Pediatrics has put together tools and resources to help guide parents and caregivers on infant safe sleep. Detailed information can be found at healthychildren.org. They have also partnered with the National Institute of Children’s Health Quality, the National Center for Fatality Review and Prevention and Sharp Insights, LLC to create a prevention program that is aimed to reduce the overall rates of Sudden Unexpected Infant Death.

Pay tribute to 10th Mountain Division at History Colorado

here are all kinds of stories that get forgotten in the fog of war, stories that need to be retold to give those who served the respect they deserve. That’s the ethos behind Winter Warriors, the History Colorado Center’s,1200 Broadway in Denver, latest exhibition, which is a tribute to World War II’s 10th Mountain Division — the first American troops specifically trained for mountain warfare. “Winter Warriors isn’t just about combat in World War II, it’s also a story of creativity, resilience, ingenuity and the human condition,” said Dr. Chris Juergens, Head of Curatorial Services and Anschutz Curator of Military History at History Colorado, in a provided statement. “This exhibition puts a human face on the inhumanity of war, and highlights the price of freedom that US servicemen and women continue to be willing to pay on behalf of their fellow citizens.” The exhibit opened on Veterans Day and truly takes an expansive and intimate look at the division, from their training at Camp Hale in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains through their breakthrough against the Nazi German Army in the mountains of Italy. The division paid the ultimate price during its time in the fight — about one-third of its members were wounded or killed. According to provided information, the exhibit relied on resourc-

a collection largely donated by veterans of the unit and maintained by History Colorado and the Denver Public Library — and features some neverbefore-seen items.

Some of the special items on display include

• A fez taken from Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini’s Italian villa when it was occupied by American troops in 1945. • The bow and arrows used by one of the division’s archers. • The uniforms worn by soldiers in training and in combat — as well as those worn by the Women’s Army Corps at Camp Hale and Red Cross volunteers in Italy. • Pieces of art constructed, carved, and etched by soldiers at Camp Hale and on the front lines. The aim of the exhibit is visitors come away with a greater appreciation of a story they may have never heard before. “This is a chance for visitors to embark on a multi-sensory journey that explores the history of the 10th Mountain Division from its origins to its combat service in more detail than ever before seen in an exhibition,” Juergens stated. “Even those

and objects that bring this history to life.” Find full details atwww.historycolorado.org/exhibit/winter-warriors. Celebrate Thanksgiving with The Last Waltz

When we lost The Band singer/ songwriter Robbie Robertson in August of this year, we lost one of rock’s great troubadours. And that loss will make the annual Thanksgiving tribute to the music of The Band, The Last Waltz, even more special. The 19th annual Last Waltz Revisited will be held at the Fillmore Auditorium, 1510 Clarkson St. in Denver, at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 22. For those unfamiliar, the concert is a recreation of The Band’s final group performance, which was immortalized by Martin Scorsese in a documentary of the same name. It’s a great communal opportunity to celebrate one of the best rock songbooks. Get tickets atwww.livenation.com. Get a closer look at the Middle East in Northglenn

It’s been difficult lately to turn on the news and not hear something about the deteriorating situation in the Middle East. But that kind of exposure often leaves the stories of the people behind. The City of Northglenn aims to

present a different picture of the region with a screening of Rick Ray’s travel film, “The Promised Land, Adventures in the Middle East: Israel, Jordan and Turkey.” The film will be screened at the Parsons Theatre, 1 East Memorial Parkway, at 10 a.m. on Nov. 21. Visit https:// northglennarts.org/for more information. Clarke’s Concert of the Week — St. Paul and the Broken Bones at Ellie Caulkins

Soul music is one of the most elastic music genres we have – there is room for all manner of approaches and subgenres. One of the best examples of this is Alabama’s St. Paul and The Broken Bones, a group that started out with a more traditional style and has evolved into a great purveyor of alternative soul. Their debut album is still one of my favorites, but this year’s “Angles in Science Fiction” is a solid and innovative exploration of the group’s sound. In support of the record, St. Paul and The Broken Bones will be stopping by the Ellie Caulkins Opera House,1400 Curtis St. in Denver, at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 18. They’ll be joined by alt-singer/songwriter Maggie Rose, so make sure to get tickets at www.ticketmaster.com. Clarke Reader’s column on culture appears on a weekly basis.

There is a critical need for veteran mental health care

t’s time that we need to amplify our voices to ensure that veterans and their families have access to necessary mental health care. We must continue to raise awareness of suicide prevention and prevention resources. Suicide is a national health crisis in the U.S., with veterans having a higher-than-average rate. Veterans can suffer from traumatic brain injuries and post traumatic stress, as well as other issues such as medical conditions, unemployment,housing and

financial concerns and more. We have heard about the 22 veteran’s lives lost each day. However, according to the National Veterans Foundation, the number of veteran suicides is more likely 24-25 or more a day, translating to over 9,000 former service members

each year who are lost to suicide. The rate of active-duty suicides has been increasing over the last five years. It is important to note that 71% of Veteran suicides are by a firearm. It is vital that we also provide a focus on substance abuse. What is one way you can actively help with prevention? The Senate recently passed a resolution designating Nov. 12, 2023 as National Warrior Call Day. It is a call to action for the public and those that served, to reach out and connect with other

service members and Veterans, to connect and provide support. You can learn more and sign up online to help at warriorcall.org. Other ways to help are by spreading the word about resources, prevention and becoming involved in community training about interventions and learning about suicide reduction tools.

LIFE Local artists express themselves through forms of metal, precious gems, unique designs BY ELISABETH SLAY ESLAY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The heat of the torch, the smell of pickling solution, the sound of metal on a mandrel and the look of a completed piece are common aspects silversmiths and jewelers in the Denver metro area enjoy about their craft. Sara DeAngelo Jewelry: “Southwest, feminine, natural and detailed”

For Englewood business owner and professional jeweler Sara DeAngelo, these aspects of the silversmithing system are elements she loves, but they come secondary in her personal process. “I am obsessed with stones and the history of how a stone is formed and how it’s literally the only one in the world like it,” DeAngelo said. She said taking a unique “peace of the Earth” and “turning it into this beautiful treasured something that makes somebody feel more beautiful” is her favorite part of the craft. Originally from Los Angeles, DeAngelo began her career in 1997 after a terrible encounter with a rude customer. DeAngelo said she quit her job and the very next day began selling her pieces door-to-door at different businesses. “I walked out the door and then the next morning I went around

with my little trays of jewelry to a bunch of stores and I got two retail stores that first morning and that sent me on a totally different path,” DeAngelo said. DeAngelo currently has a retail store and studio at 16 E. Girard Ave. in Englewood. She describes her styles as “Southwest, feminine, natural and detailed.” “I make mostly sterling silver. They’re usually hand stamped using Navajo stamps that I buy from the Navajo artists themselves and then (I use) unique gemstones that I literally search the world for,” DeAngelo said. DeAngelo moved into her current location after outgrowing her last studio and while she wasn’t looking for retail, she’s happy she found it and she loves the connections she forms with people. DeAngelo is an established artisan in the industry and she said she was featured in the Sundance Catalog. She said that was a dream goal for her and her work is sold in about 50 stores across the country. She said the jewelry-making community is vast in Colorado because in her experience people seem to appreciate and value homemade items. DeAngelo makes all sorts of pieces including rings, earrings and necklaces but she loves making earrings the most because they’re her favorite type of jewelry to wear. DeAngelo said making a delicate piece can be very meticulous and detail-oriented. “It’s harder than it looks…and it’s very exact,” DeAngelo said. SEE JEWELRY, P17

Fellow silversmith and production assistant of DeAngelo’s, Katie White is also enjoying the process of building her own business and finding a balance between her two worlds. White said her specialties in jewelry making are stone setting and intricate stamping work and making things that “excite people and offend them too.” Originally from New Jersey, White moved to Colorado about seven years ago and is now based in Boulder. White sells her pieces in Denver at markets and in galleries. White said she was “stone obsessed” as a teenager. “I was collecting raw stones and I actually started wire wrapping and making mainly pendants and rings out of copper and brass,” White said. During her senior year in high school, White said she was supporting herself, and while she enjoyed making her pieces, she was also selling them as a means of survival. For White, the best aspect of jewelry making, which she has been doing for about nine years, is that it’s a three-dimensional art form. “I really love that metal feels like a resource that I can time and time again manipulate,” White said. “It feels like it can be recycled and repurposed. It feels like there is always a story to any jewelry pieces and anything metal-related.” When she makes a piece, White said she notices a correlation between her mental state and the process. The silversmith said she will start her process off with a “ceremony” whether it’s making a cup of coffee, smoking herbs or cannabis or saying a prayer. “Jewelry making is like putting a little piece of my soul and body energetics into something that someone’s going to wear forever,” White said. White describes her jewelry as different, unique and bold. “I would say my jewelry has a core theme of being alternative,” White said. “I definitely dabble in everything from being edgy punk to almost like biker babe to boho flowy (and) gem-centered.”

White said people enjoy her jewelry which she sells through Instagram, on her website and in five stores in Denver and two in New Jersey. White joined DeAngelo’s studio about three months ago and enjoys executing DeAngelo’s style of wire wrapping and knotting. “What’s cool is I feel like I am honing a lot of my more nitty gritty skills,” White said. “Just making my things look nicer, cleaner, production style and mass quantity.” In her home studio of organized chaos, however, with her own production assistant and canine companion Dobby, White said she’s a “one-man show.” “I move all over the place. I change things. I do have a tendency to go in between projects,” White said. White said she believes she’s “creating magic” in her studio. “I feel like I am working with my hands and get to view magic by the end. I feel like I am an alchemist. I feel like I am connecting to the Earth,” White said. Michelene Berkey: “Not for everyone”

Michelene Berkey is a metalsmith who has made jewelry for a large portion of her life and works from her home studio. Based in Evergreen, Berkey said she designs and makes silver jewelry with high-carat gold accents, gemstones and different kinds of pearls. Originally from New York, the 73-year-old said she has had an interest in jewelry making since she was child. “My grandfather would go to the jewelry exchange in New York and bring home things wrapped up in little pieces of tissue paper and rubber bands,” Berkey said. “I remember standing at the table watching him unwrap these things and just being fascinated with jewelry.” She attended California State of Long Beach, learned her techniques and “never stopped making (jewelry) and designing it.” When she was in California, Berkey said she worked in various jewelry shops in the late 1970s and then she moved to Colorado. She said she didn’t have any jewelry connections and took a break from the craft profession to own and operate her own wallpaper and paint business. Berkey said she returned to full time metalsmithing in 2000. SEE JEWELRY, P18

“The jewelry that I make is not traditional jewelry. It’s more what they call art jewelry,” Berkey said. “I know how to make traditional jewelry…That’s what I was trained to do but the jewelry that I am making now is made from little sections of cottonwood twigs and just natural things that I find.” Berkey said the traditional process consists of a metalsmith making a piece out of wax, plastering it and then placing it in a “burnout” kiln where the wax is melted away. “What’s left is the void of that particular piece that you’re making and then when you’re ready to actually do the casting you melt your metal and you pour it in and it fills in all of those places where the wax had been originally,” Berkey said. She siad she wants her pieces to have a lot of texture. “It’s an interesting process. The casting is the same as manufacturers would use to make anybody’s traditional wedding ring,” Berkey said. “In my case I am actually burning away the twigs because they burn away just the same as a wax.” Berkey said her work is “not for everyone” but those who love it have responded well to her creations. “The more people have seen it and understood that it’s silver and it’s made from the twigs they’re really fascinated with that,” Berkey said. Berkey sells her work in galleries and she attends various shows throughout Colorado and other states. Denver Jewelry Studio: A place to learn

Berkey is always willing to learn, and said she has attended the Denver Jewelry Studio in Littleton and taken classes in different techniques. The studio has various levels of classes taught by many different instructors and managed carefully by studio owner Judy Brown. “Our studio we call it a maker space. It’s basically for people who have no experience at all in metal smithing or they’re professionals and they’re looking to learn a new technique,” Brown said. Located at 8392 South Conti-

nental Divide Road, Unit 104 in Littleton, Brown said Denver Jewelry Studio is open daily, except on Wednesday, from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. There are four total employees including Brown and 30 contract instructors who travel from all over the country to hold classes. Brown said she purchased the studio from the previous owners in 2018 after teaching there. “I am a retired state auditor for the state of Texas and Colorado and I needed a creative outlet,” Brown said. Brown loves “the endless learning” of metalsmithing. Brown said her style of jewelry is more natural, which was what she was interested in exploring. “For somebody that’s a numbers cruncher I found that I gravitate to the organic because it gave me so much more freedom and a lot of times it mimics nature,” Brown said. “I am always fascinated with not only textures but colors that we find in natural rocks and tree bark.” Brown said her primary technique to do and teach is cuttlebone casting. “It’s a very old technique. They use the cuttlefish. I learned that one in 2007 and I just gravitated to it because I love the texture that you find in that,” Brown said. Brown said she was developing her own style to the technique by making the casting thinner which wasn’t common. This she said is how she also entered the world of teaching. “I love teaching because I love to see people learning to be creative.

ing,” Miro said. Located at 6750 S. Emporia St. in Centennial, Miro said the family opened their retail space 15 years ago. Miro said both her father and her brother are jewelers and the family owns a factory in Lebanon, which is where the business began. The family opened their current location in 2017 and Miro said her father attended college in Colorado and wanted to return. For Miro, the best aspects of what she does are the custom pieces the business creates and seeing it journey over the last several years. “It’s just the custom part of it and being able to take something that has been in our family for a long time and evolve it over time,” she said. Miro explained the business has evolved from bench jewelry to manufacturing and retail. She said they make everything from wedding bands to engagement rings to necklaces to earrings. “The nice thing about custom is you can work with any style because you’re creating it all,” she said. “It’s not like you’re a brand that you have specific styles that you’re working around.” While versatile in design, Miro said she would describe the company’s pieces as classic and trendy. Miro said she is not a jeweler but she works on the back end of the business in purchasing and finance. “I like that it’s a family business that we’ve grown over the generations and we will have for future generations too,” she said.

I think being creative feeds our souls,” Brown said. “All of us need that in our lives in whatever form we have whether it’s cooking or painting.” Brown said for those looking to venture into metal smithing the studio recommends that they take the 30-hour Metalsmithing course and then go from there. She said information on classes can be found on the studio’s website. She said people will learn the basics including sawing techniques, filing, hammering and setting stones. “For us teaching the beginning students all of these techniques they don’t have to buy a lot of equipment to get started at home and they can really express their creativity,” Brown said. Denver Jewelry Studio also offers Open Studio where artisans can pay a monthly fee to utilize its tools. New Denver resident and jewelry maker Jenny Foulkes said she recently moved to Colorado and found the studio. “I needed bench space because my studio is not set up in my home and (Brown) has all the tools, all the solder stations and they’re open all day,” Foulkes said. “I like the warm welcoming atmosphere.” Miro Jewelers: A family-owned business

State Senator Zenzinger announces bid for Jefferson County Commission Term-limited Zenzinger vying for seat up for grabs following Kraft-Tharp’s announcement that she would not seek re-election BY RYLEE DUNN RDUNN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Colorado State Senator Rachel Zenzinger announced that she will be running for a seat on the Jefferson County Board of Commissioners following the news that County Commissioner Tracy Kraft-Tharp will not seek reelection. Zenzinger, an Arvada resident who has represented State Senate District 19 for eight years and is now term-limited from holding that office again, announced her candidacy for county commissioner on Nov. 9. District 19 covers parts of Arvada and Westminister. After being elected to Arvada’s city council in 2008, Zenzinger was appointed to the state senate in 2013 following the resignation of Evie Hudak, whose campaign Zenzinger managed. In 2016, Zenzinger was re-elected to the state senate. In 2023, Zenzinger — a Democrat — crossed party lines to work with District 23 State Sen. Barbara Kirkmeyerto remove upzoning pro-

visions from a proposed land use reform bill championed by Colorado Democrats. The bill did not pass during the 2023 legislative session. Zenzinger said she felt the county commission would be a logical next step to continue her public service. “This seems like the next best opportunity for me to apply my skills in service to the community,” Zenzinger said. “Honestly that’s what it’s all about. I get huge satisfaction from serving the people of Jefferson County and wherever people can benefit most from my emphases on transparency and accessibility.” Kraft-Tharp announced that she would not be seeking re-election on Nov. 8. “After careful consideration and conversation with my husband, who has stuck by me through five elections, I’ve decided to return to my roots of service to the community, and take some time for myself to travel, volunteer and attend more Colorado Rockies baseball games,” Kraft-Tharp said in a statement. “It’s been a rewarding career,” Kraft-Tharp continued. “It’s been an honor to serve Jefferson County. Thank you for this privilege, and thank you, as always, for your support and friendship.” Zenzinger already appears to have the support of Jeffco Commissioners Andy Kerr and Lesley Dahlkemper, who voiced their backing of her campaign in Zenzinger’s announcement. “Rachel brings a huge amount of energy and integrity to any project, and I know we are going to accomplish more than ever on behalf of the

people of Jefferson County,” Kerr said. “Rachel has a way of working with people that motivates them to set aside differences to achieve the common good,” Dahlkemper said. “Her budget-savvy policy background and her heart for community will serve Jefferson County residents well.” CLOG-FREE GUTTERS

Vehicle-auction company wants to buy Bandimere Speedway property Copart hopes to annex land into the Town of Morrison BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Copart, an online vehicle-auction company, wants to buy the Bandimere Speedway property along C-470 in Jefferson County for a storage facility. The company hosted a community meeting attended by more than 160 people on Nov. 9 to explain its plan to annex the 125-acre speedway property from unincorporated Jefferson County into the Town of Morrison. Then Copart would rezone the property to a planned development to allow the business. Parking lots along Rooney Road on the south end of Bandimere

Speedway, which are on 20 acres already within the Morrison town limits, would be rezoned to allow restaurants and retail uses. Residents who spoke at the meeting — some from the Town of Morrison, some from Red Rocks Ranch and Solterra in the City of Lakewood, and others from unincorporated Jeffco — had questions about why Copart wanted to annex into the Town of Morrison and why the storage facility would be good for the area. Copart has had a pre-application meeting with Morrison officials, but it has not yet filed an annexation application. When the annexation application is complete, the request will go before the Morrison Planning Commission for a recommendation and the Board of Trustees for a decision. Both the Planning Commission and the Board of Trustees conduct hearings to get community input before making decisions.

The annexation process could take about six months. Bandimere Speedway

The iconic Bandimere Speedway closed in October. It accommodated 28,500 spectators at more than 130 events a year with nearly 30,000 competitors each season. The Bandimere family announced last April that it would close the race track and look for a new, larger location, one that had access to sewer and water, something Bandimere Speedway never had in its 65-year history. Bandimere Speedway President John Bandimere Jr. spoke to the crowd, explaining that the changing environment around the race track made it difficult to expand, which is why it wanted to sell the property to Copart. “Copart will be a respectful neighbor,” Bandimere said. “I speak for my family. We are sad to leave this place. … The address 3051 S. Rooney Road will always have a special place in our hearts.” Bandimere said Copart’s proposal was good for the Town of Morrison. “Morrison needs income, and that income will come from those 20 acres (on the south end of the speedway),” Bandimere said. “I really believe that.” He said everyone wins with this plan. “We need your support so we can (build a new speedway) somewhere else,” Bandimere told the crowd.

“If we can’t get support, we sit and wait.” Marcus Pachner with The Pachner Group, a consultant to Copart, said Amazon and other large companies had looked at the property but were concerned about the lack of sewer and water. SEE SPEEDWAY, P24

The proposal

Kevin Bond, regional manager for Copart, said the company was not a stereotypical junkyard. Instead, it buys vehicles from insurance companies, financial institutions, charities and more and sells them in online auctions to used car buyers, dismantlers, dealers, body shops, salvage buyers and individuals. Forty to 50 cars would be brought to the facility each day, and after being placed in outdoor storage, they would be sold, he said. A typical facility consists of an office building, customer parking, vehicle parking, and a shipping and receiving area.

November 16, 2023No The business would operate from 8 a.m.-5 p.m. on weekdays, so there would be no activity on weekends. Vehicles would not be dismantled on site. Bond said the business would be as unobtrusive as possible. State-required environmental impact studies would be performed on the property, and even though the area sees a lot of hail, no structures would be constructed to keep hail from damaging vehicles. Copart also has facilities in Littleton, Brighton, Denver and Colorado Springs. In response to audience concerns about lighting, Bond said rather than using lighting to provide security, Copart uses infrared cameras to pick up thermal images. He said Copart itself would not add much to sales-tax revenue for Mor-

rison because Colorado law sends sales tax to the municipality where the buyer resides rather than where the seller resides. Why annex

Pachner said the developer thought annexing into Morrison would be the best route to go for the business. He noted that businesses usually look at options when considering new development, and Copart could stay in unincorporated Jeffco, or annex into Lakewood or Morrison. He said since 20 acres of the Bandimere Speedway property already were in Morrison, the developer decided it made sense to annex all of the property into the town. Benefits to Morrison and the area

Pachner said the benefits of Copart locating on the site included local

employment plus less traffic, noise and lighting compared with Bandimere. He said screening would be installed to buffer the business from C-470. While a site plan has not been developed, Pachner said walking and bicycling trails would be planned. He hoped sewer and water could be provided to the south end of the property for retail development, something that would bring salestax revenue to the town, a positive addition to Morrison. A Morrison resident suggested that Copart could help Morrison by creating a parking area and a shuttle service to bring more people into town. She said Morrison had a big parking shortage problem. Pachner said it was important to Copart to contribute to the Town of Morrison’s motto to “Keep Morrison Morrison.”

Evergreen town hall brings speakers to discuss advocacy, programs for Jeffco senior citizens Just as people say it takes a village to raise a child, it also takes a village to prepare for people’s twilight years. Whether you are a senior citizen or you are taking care of your parents who are aging, it’s time to start planning now, according to Morgan Jenkins with the Colorado Placement and Referral Alliance. “Make sure your family knows what you want,” Jenkins said, who spoke at a town hall meeting on aging on Nov. 4 in Evergreen. “If you want to age at home, what does that look like? If you can’t stay at home, where do you want to live?” While those discussions may be difficult, they need to happen sooner rather than later, so a plan is in place. Then the family needs to discuss what triggers moving forward with the plan, she said at the town hall organized by Jefferson County commissioners and state legislators representing the foothills. Older adults can start now by downsizing items in their homes, so that work isn’t left to their children or strangers, Jenkins said. “Aging is like a team sport,” Jenkins said. “If you don’t have a team through your family, you need to create one elsewhere so you are cared for.” Finding trusted support services for aging adults is important because that is the age group continuing to grow in Colorado and Jefferson County, according to state demographer Elizabeth Garner, who provided slides showing data on Colorado and Jefferson County population projections. State Sen. Tammy Story discussed the information Garner provided. The population in Jefferson County is declining and fewer people are moving here. Garner estimates that by 2030, the only age group growing in Jefferson County will be those 65 and older with a slight increase in those 18 to 24. Story said aging impacts everything: housing, the labor force, schools, services and more, and

two years ago, Jeffco lost more population than any other county in Colorado. Jenkins told attendees that the state is working to create a more robust system for vetting services for older adults. In the meantime, the Colorado Placement and Referral Alliance helps families feel protected as they make choices, so they are not exposed to predatory agencies. “Our organization stands shoulder to shoulder with you when you are making choices,” she said. Sherrie Bonham with the Colorado Assisted Living Association suggested that families talk with organizations like Jenkins’ because they try to match family needs with resources, and they have information so families know who to trust. Karen Moldovan with AARP in Colorado told attendees that AARP does more than just advocate for seniors on the local, state and federal levels. Many people already know about AARP’s income-tax preparation and driver-safety programs. The organization also hosts inperson and virtual classes on everything from meal planning to yoga. Among the most popular are programs on setting up smart TVs and organizing digital photos, she said. She also explained the Wish of a Lifetime program that grants seniors their wishes. She told of one Colorado woman who wanted to learn to ride a bicycle, and AARP reached out a coach for cycling great Lance Armstrong, and he taught the woman to ride. For more information on AARP’s offerings, visit https://states.aarp. org/colorado/upcoming-eventsco. Ron Isaacson with the Jefferson County Cultural Council said many arts and cultural organizations are developing programs for older adults such as art therapy, working with those with Alzheimer’s disease and more. “The arts community understands (the population is aging), and groups are forming to help the aging population through the arts,” Isaacson said.

Dakota Ridge football advances to 4A quarterfinals BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

LAKEWOOD — Playoff football in November always brings out the nerves. However, Dakota Ridge senior quarterback Blake Palladino turned those jitters into a fourtouchdown performance Friday night at Jeffco Stadium as the No. 7-seeded Eagles defeated No. 10 Thomas Jefferson 52-28. “He (Palladino) was really nervous. I haven’t really seen him get nervous. He was wound up all day,” Woitalewicz said of his quarterback. “I kept telling him to calm down. Take a deep breath and relax.” Palladino had a pair of rushing touchdowns (4 and 9 yards), along with first-half touchdown passes to senior Walker Moench and sophomore Landon Kalsbeck. “I just trust my team and I know everyone had everyone’s back,” Palladino said. “Everything will work out.” Dakota Ridge jumped out to a quick 17-0 lead early in the second quarter. Junior Jack Seidel kicked a 24-yard field to cap off the opening drive for the Eagles. Palladino finished another scoring drive with a 4-yard touchdown run with 27 second left in the first quarter to push the lead to 10-0. Palladino went to the air for the Eagles’ next score with a 30yard touchdown pass to Moench to make it a 17-0 lead with 10:37 left in the second quarter. Thomas Jefferson’ defense gave the Spartans life with a 6-pick. Palladino’s screen pass was intercepted by senior Xavier Allen at the Eagles’ 1-yard line to give the Spartans a defensive score. Senior quarterback Meech Haralambopoulos pulled Thomas Jefferson without 17-14 with a 27yard touchdown pass to senior Daren Sacha with 55.2 seconds left before halftime. However, there was enough time on the clock for Dakota Ridge to drive 80 yards in less than a minute to make it a 24-14 lead at halftime. Palladino hit Kalsbeck near the Eagles’ sideline and the sophomore did the rest dodging a tackler on the way to a 34-yard touchdown with 18 second left before halftime. “We practice 2-minute drills all the time. We are good on 2-minute drills,” Palladino said. “We just now how to move the ball.” TJ (10-2 record) came into the game with a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. Haralambopoulos and running back Jake Tapia had combined for more than 2,600 yards on the ground for the Spartans. “Our goal going in was to get them (TJ) behind the chains,” Woitalewicz said. “They made a couple of plays in the pass game, but that it’s what they want to do. To get them in second and third down and long situations is what we wanted to do.”

Moench had a huge tackle on Tapia for a 4-yard loss with the Spartans getting to midfield on the first drive of the second half. TJ’s drive eventually stalled and the Eagles (8-3) scored pushed their lead to 38-14 by the end of the third quarter with touchdown runs by Palladino and Kalsbeck. “I was just doing what my team wanted me to do,” Moench said of the big stop on Tapia. “We have been waiting all night for a big hit on him. I got the job done.” It got a little sloppy with plenty of penalties in the second half on both sides. Senior Stephen Price had a 6-yard touchdown run and Kalsbeck had his third touchdown of the night on a 55-yard run in the final minutes. Dakota Ridge will face No. 2 Erie in the 4A quar-

terfinals next week. The Tigers shutout No. 15 Rampart 52-0 in another second-round game Friday night. “You play a team like Erie who we will probably get next week it is going to be a long day,” Woitalewicz said of the second-half penalties. “If we can convert and not have penalties we’ll be in good shape.” Palladino doesn’t mind being the underdog next week against Erie. “We know we are a great team,” Palladino said. “We are on a roll with five wins in a row now. We’ll try to make it six next week.” Dennis Pleuss is the sports information director for Jeffco Public Schools. For more Jeffco coverage, go to ColoradoPreps.com and CHSAANow.com.

Loveland Ski Area open for the ski season Skiers and snowboarders get first powder of the season in Clear Creek County

according to Marketing Manager Dustin Schaefer. “The special thing (at Loveland) is we’re not a ski resort, we’re a ski area. When you go to Loveland, you feel like family, not a number at a regular resort, and we try to keep lift passes financially affordable,” Schaefer said. Loveland Ski Area will operate seven days a week, continuing through Closing Day in early May. Lifts will run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays and from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on weekends and designated holidays. “After completing the opening day run, our snowmakers will quickly shift their focus to open additional terrain as soon as possible,” Goodell added.

Loveland Ski Area opened for the season on Nov. 10. This opening day comes about a week later into the season from last year. Goodell said the mountain has been working with wild temperature changes this season. “We had some curveballs thrown
