The families may not have known they would become members of the cast when they attended the Oct. 31 performance of “Alice in Wonderland.” The event was held in Hampden Hall and the only person initially on the stage was Seth Misel from the Littleton Town Hall Arts Center. “This is a participation play and I will want members of the audience to volunteer to become cast members,” he said. “I have costumes for the volunteers and I will help them with their lines. So, please don’t be shy and join me on stage.”
There were about 50 people in the audience. Misel selected 18 individuals to join him on the stage so they could play roles ranging from the Queen of Hearts to Alice. Then he told the remaining members of the audience they too would participate in the play as the chorus helping sing the song and providing sound effects. When he called for volunteers, many children eagerly raised their hands. He selected the child he thought would be right for a particular part. Then he enlisted three adults to fill the remaining spots in the cast. Misel read the story from a book, calling on each cast member as needed to step to the front of the stage and take part in the play. Deb Cates volunteered to play the Queen of Cast continues on Page 9

TriCity Academy supporters announced they would appeal to the state board of education almost immediately after the Englewood School Board denied the academy’s application to establish a charter school in Englewood. The school board held a special meeting Oct. 28 to render a decision on the charter application. Board members unanimously voted to deny the application. Duane Tucker, school board president, read a motion that included a number of reasons for not approving the request, including a lack of community interest in a charter school and a budget he deemed unworkable. “The charter application to the district was the first step and the second step will be our appeal to the state board of education,” Englewood City Councilman and charter-school applicant Rick Gillit said after the Oct. 28 meeting. “We feel we will Charter continues on Page 22
DeGette gets a 10th term Incumbent picks up two-thirds of the vote By Tom Munds
tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com Diana DeGette (D-Denver) will once again represent Colorado’s 1st Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. She will begin her 10th term in Congress in January when she takes the oath of office. DeGette picked up 65.5 percent of the vote Nov. 4. Republican candidate Martin Walsh received 29.5 percent, while Libertarian Frank Atwood got 3.2 percent and unaffiliated candidate Danny Stroud got 1.8 percent. “I stand here not in sad defeat, but with optimism about the State of Colorado and the state of the Republican Party,” said Walsh from a GOP watch party at the Hyatt Regency Denver DeGette Tech Center. “Despite our differences, we both share a love of Colorado and America.” DeGette, who was not immediately available for comment, graduated from Denver South High School and earned her bachelor’s degree from Colorado College in 1979. She went on to earn her law degree from New York University Law School in 1982. She served two terms in the Colorado House of Representatives before being DeGette continues on Page 4

With a little help, it’s a lot like home The door opens and a slight woman with a quick smile, round glasses, comfy gray sweats and short, snowy hair pushes her walker into the hall. Four months ago, Mary Clancy, 89, was living in her Lakewood apartment. But she just couldn’t do it anymore — the cooking, the cleaning, the driving. So she gave her car to a delighted nephew and moved into one of the 111 rooms at the Libby Bortz Assisted Living Center in Littleton. “It’s great here,” she says, unhesitatingly, as she makes her way down the floral-carpeted hall to find the Scrabble game. “If you can’t be at home, this is the next best thing.” The words gladden Dawn Shepherd, who stands nearby, eyes sparkling. But then, she knows the secret to this place. The brick-and-stucco structure was built on a foundation of innovative stubbornness and passionate concern for the well-being of the older community who needed, not only a place to call home, but also one they could afford. “It’s a love thing,” Shepherd says. “There’s tons of love in this building.” The center, just off Main Street in downtown Littleton, opened its doors 20 years ago as one of the country’s first affordable assisted living facilities when Shepherd, now 68, was director of the Littleton Housing Authority. Back then, few assisted living centers existed — the concept was just becoming part of the senior landscape discussion. But what made this building particularly unique was its owner — a housing authority, an agency dedicated to providing housing for low-income families and individuals, one not usually in the business of assisted living. That meant the Libby Bortz center, which would help its residents with the daily care they needed, had to be affordable. To do that, the housing authority worked with a group of creative thinkers with experience in senior housing called The Raleigh Group and Kaiser Aerospace and Electronics, a now-defunct corporation and the tax credit partner that helped finance the project. “The team just got so close,” Shepherd says. “It was really an amazing moment in
time — everyone worked so hard toward an end goal.” The use of federal tax credits allowed the housing authority to save $200 a month per unit and ensure its affordability in perpetuity, Shepherd says. It also made the center one of the first — if not the first — in the country to be financed by tax credits. Today, a one-room apartment at Libby Bortz costs $1,784 a month, well below the national average for assisted living. That includes three meals a day, weekly housekeeping and laundry and medication supervision. The Genworth 2014 Cost of Care Survey, which has surveyed senior care services throughout the country for 11 years, found the national median monthly rate for assisted living was $3,500, an increase of 4.29 percent from 2009. Unforgivably, housing for seniors in this country — at a time in their lives when they should feel safe and comfortable — has instead become “a crushing burden.” The statement comes from SeniorLiving.org, a website dedicated to senior living and retirement, which reports that “finding affordable senior housing may be one of the biggest challenges facing seniors and their loved ones.” And the U.S. Small Business Development Center predicts a significant unmet demand for assisted living facilities by 2020 as the population between 65 and 84 grows by nearly 39 percent. So, where will we live? Most importantly, where can we afford to live with dignity? Shepherd pondered those questions long ago from her office in a subsidized senior apartment building in Littleton where she watched her seniors, as they aged, require

more help with daily living activities. “Their only choice was a nursing home,” she says, “and they didn’t need a nursing home.” Shepherd — who retired from the Littleton Housing Authority (now called South Metro Housing Options) in 2001, but soon took a job heading the housing authority in neighboring Englewood until retiring definitively a year ago — decided to provide a choice. After eight years of planning and work, doors to the center, named after longtime Littleton social worker and housing authority board member Libby Bortz, opened in January 1994. Shepherd interviewed all the prospective residents personally. The move, she says, almost immediately “enhanced their lives and prolonged their lives.” The apartment space was small. But it was their space. “There were enough things that they were giving up in the aging process without having to have a stranger as a roommate,” Shepherd says. “That’s not the way we wanted our grandmother or our own parents to live.” With no kitchens in apartments and a community dining room, the model encouraged socialization. Not isolation. Small changes, such as staff dispensing correct medication and providing laundry service, sparked dramatic changes. Less confusion, more pride in appearance, more confidence. And, there was the warmth that wrapped residents close, because, of course, this was a labor of love. •••
On a recent chilly afternoon, a few days after a 20th anniversary reunion and celebration, piano notes drift into the lobby from the finely appointed dining room. The gas fireplace is lit. A man in his 90s sits in an armchair, eyes closed, whistling softly to the tune, “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ on My Head.” Tables the hue of dark cherrywood stand next to tall-backed armchairs and love seats the color of wine, gold and green. Several cozy living rooms are scattered throughout the three floors, along with a courtyard garden, TV rooms and a community kitchen.
Wide, third-floor balconies with white wicker furniture face glorious mountain views. In one hallway is the Salute to Veterans Wall, where portraits of loved ones who served the country continuously flow across a television mounted on the blue wall. Jeanne Whalen, 72, sits on her walker across from the screen, watching for the photos of her two brothers, who served in the Korean War. “Not this one,” she says, eyes on the scrolling pictures. “Not this next one. “The next one is my two brothers. They were in the Korean War.” The photos, taken in the 1950s, identify Dan Whalen, Navy, and Paul Whalen, Air Force. A year apart, they were 10 years older than Jeanne. “I come here every day,” she says, because “I love them and I miss them.” Jeanne, who has emphysema, moved from New York a year ago to be near her daughter. The move has been good. “You get the help you need, and I’ve made lots of friends,” she says. “Praise the Lord for this place.” Downstairs, the only resident who has lived here since the first year arrives from an outing. Virginia Chynoweth, 92, carefully wheels her walker to a chair. She peers through her glasses. “I like everything about it,” she says about her home. She’s able to go wherever she pleases. And, “I feel safe.” In the end, that’s what a home should be — not a crushing burden, just simply safe. Especially when we’re old. For Dawn Shepherd, that means the world. If the time should come, she already knows which room she’d choose. It’d be easy, after all, to live in a place built with love.

House race too close to call By Tom Munds
tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com The election of a representative in state House District 3 remained too close to call the morning of Nov. 5. Political newcomer Candice Benge (RGreenwood Village) held a very slight lead over incumbent Daniel Kagan (D-Cherry Hills Village) as of results posted by Arapahoe County at 2:30 a.m. Benge’s 50.4 percent to 49.6 percent lead represented a margin of only 197 votes. As of 10 a.m. Nov. 5, Arapahoe Clerk and Recorder Matt Crane said there were still 20,000 to 25,000 votes to be counted. He said the county planned to post an updated count later Benge in the day and make a final unofficial posting when all ballots are counted. “We are in a wait-and-see position right now,” said Benge, who works in the construction industry. “We are pleased with our campaign and the results so far. But no one is getting too excited until the final results are posted.” Crane said the less-than-200-vote difference did not qualify for an automatic recount. Kagan He said the final tally could change that status. For many years, state House District 3 represented south Denver, which regularly elected Democrats to the office. However, the 2010 census resulted in the district being shifted to the south so it now ventures into Arapahoe County and includes Englewood, Sheridan, Cherry Hills Village, portions of Littleton, Greenwood Village and unincorporated Arapahoe County, where there is about an even blend of registered Republicans and Democrats. Kagan, who was not immediately available for comment, has represented the district since he was appointed to the office in 2009 following the resignation of Ann McGihon. He was reelected in 2010 and 2012.

Incumbents sweep six county races No new faces in Arapahoe government
for this office. Sandstrom handily won the rubber match, garnering 56 percent of the vote. Milliken won the 2006 race over Sandstrom, who prevailed in 2010.
Staff report Several elected positions in Arapahoe County government were decided Nov. 4, with Republican incumbents all winning by large margins. Below is a look at these races.
Sheriff Dave Walcher (R-Aurora) will keep his job after facing off against Tyler Brown (D-Aurora). Walcher, who has been serving as sheriff since February, won by a comfortable ratio of 56 percent to 44 percent. Walcher Walcher was appointed early in the year to replace longtime Sheriff Grayson Robinson, who retired.
Sandstrom
Clerk and recorder
Matt Crane (RLittleton) will stay in office after defeating Joan Lopez (D-Centennial). Crane took 57 percent of the vote. Crane was appointed clerk in March 2013, follow- Crane ing the resignation of Nancy Doty, who was elected county commissioner.
County commissioner, District 2
Martha Karnopp (D-Aurora) took aim at the seat of Nancy Sharpe (R-Greenwood Village), but the incumbent easily won re-election. Sharpe racked up 62 percent of the vote. The former mayor
County treasurer Incumbent Sue Sandstrom (RAurora) faced former Treasurer Doug Milliken (D-Centennial), in the third contest between the two candidates

County assessor
Incumbent Corbin Sakdol (RLittleton) won by a large margin over PK Kaiser (D-Aurora). Sakdol picked up 56.4 percent of the vote. This will be his third term, and he has worked for the assessor’s office since 1990.
Sakdol
County coroner
Kelly Lear-Kaul (R-Columbine Valley) ran uncontested for coroner. She has been serving in the position since June after being appointed to replace Michael Dobersen, who retired. Lear-Kaul has worked for the coroner’s office since 2004. Like Dobersen, she is a licensed fo- Lear-Kaul rensic pathologist, giving her an advanced level of medical training in a position that does not require it.

Hickenlooper claims narrow victory Democratic governor fends off challenge from Beauprez By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com One word summed up the mood at a Nov. 5 Capitol victory rally for Gov. John Hickenlooper. “Phew,” the governor said while making a motion with his hand as if to wipe away sweat. After a bruising night for Democrats in Colorado and nationwide, Hickenlooper’s razor thin re-election win over Republican Bob Beauprez was one of the few things the blue party had to celebrate following the results from Election Night. Results in the gubernatorial race were not known until the morning after the election. After trailing for much of the evening the night before, Hickenlooper eventually was able to squeak out a win after pulling ahead in the wee hours of the morning. “I think I can now demonstrate that one, even with almost no sleep, can still feel great joy,” he said. As of 11 a.m on Nov. 5, Hickenlooper held about a 1 percentage point lead, with 94 percent of the precincts reporting. He was leading Beauprez by about 25,000 votes. Most of the remaining votes were in counties that were backing Hickenlooper. Beauprez had not conceded victory by the time Hickenlooper had given his victory speech, nor had the campaign issued a statement regarding the results. It was expected to be a very close race and the contest lived up to its billing.
For months, Beauprez, a former congressman, hammered at Hickenlooper’s record and blasted him for “failing to lead” on key issues including the death penalty and fracking. Helping Beauprez during his campaign were Hickenlooper’s own words. The governor at times found himself walking back comments he made, including remarks regarding gun control legislation that he gave to a group of sheriffs over the summer. Beauprez was also helped by a national Republican wave that swept through Colorado and allowed the GOP to take over a U.S. Senate race here and to keep statewide offices that include attorney general, secretary of state and treasurer. But from the beginning, Hickenlooper focused his campaign on his stewardship over a state economy that has picked up steam under his watch. And he maintained a quirky, affable personality while keeping his promise to voters that he would never run a negative campaign ad, despite some of the groups backing him doing so. “I am so proud that we were able to run a positive campaign,” Hickenlooper said. “But we could not have done it without the encouragement of the people of Colorado.” Hickenlooper thanked Democratic Sen. Mark Udall for his service, several hours after Udall lost his re-election bid to Republican Congressman Cory Gardner. The governor said Gardner called him that morning to congratulate him on the victory. “He said, `We’re going to be able to work together very well,’ ” Hickenlooper said. “We’re going to do everything we can to move this state forward.”

Life can take nightmare turns with dream logic A good friend’s wife had ovarian cancer, time stood still, and then he was handed a different clock. Things that mattered the day before didn’t matter very much. Jack and I were in art school together. He was the best painter in the building. We were on the same intramural basketball team. We listened to the same music. He told me about Country Joe and the Fish. That will give you some idea. I stayed in California for my MFA, and he went to Yale for his. Then years went by, we went in different directions, and I thought that was that. Tyus Edney brought us back together. He did it in 4.8 seconds. Edney dribbled the length of the court against Missouri and scored the winning basket with 0.0 on the clock. I heard from Jack. Off and on, I have been hearing from him ever since, especially in the past few years. Most of the time we talk about the football or basketball teams, but we get around to art and even the edges of politics. He is just as intense as he was in college. He will let you know exactly what he is thinking. Some of his thoughts are not the prevailing ones. Neither are mine, so we are a good match. We were exchanging emails about the football team, and then his emails stopped. He is a well-known Los Angeles-based designer. Projects are coming in and going out all of the time.
Deadlines are always looming. So I didn’t think very much about it. Then I received one of those messages that we all receive — eventually. His wife was in the hospital. It has been a couple of weeks now. She was released after an operation and treatment, but she went back to the emergency room. It has been touch and go, and obviously the football season moved to the back of the bus. Jack stayed in Bacall’s room, and he has been compassionately watchful every single day. It’s been said before: Life, real life, is much more important than games. But games can help get us through some things. It’s hard to explain if you don’t have a team. If you have a team, your heart goes into it. A win brightens the day. We were unbeaten while I was in rehab. It made a difference. At my age, I get a couple of emails like the one about Bacall every year. I have sent
some of my own that were almost like it, only mine didn’t have happy endings. Just endings. I haven’t seen Jack since he left for Yale. That was around 1970. In the past 44 years, a lot of people have gone through my life and out the back door. The Internet is an odd thing, though. I have frequent reunions, usually with former students who want to reminisce. It’s been great to reconnect with Jack. Jack met Bacall at the UCLA extension school in Santa Monica, and I can still remember how he talked about her. He made her sound very intriguing, just like her name. They have been in love ever since. I like success stories when it comes to love. There aren’t enough of them. I cannot imagine what I would do if something happened to Jennifer. I guess we learn these things from others. Maybe even from books and movies. But when it comes right down to it, what do you do? What part of you tells you what to do? Balloons in the room won’t do it. It has to be deeper. And maybe you have to find something in you that you didn’t even know was there. “He would be there all night, and he would be there when Jem waked up in the morning.” (“To Kill a Mockingbird.”) Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

Don’t let little things stop big achievements The golf ball rolled across the green on its way to the hole, it seemed like a perfect birdie putt, and then just as it was looking as if it would fall gently into the cup, it stopped one rotation short of going in. The golfers let out a group groan as they watched in confusion, wondering how the ball could have stopped so abruptly. As the golfer approached his ball to tap it in, he noticed the barrier to his birdie … a tiny ladybug. Now the average weight of a ladybug is 0.021 grams, and the weight of a golf ball is 45.93 grams, that’s more than 2,000 times larger than the ladybug. And yet in the battle for the birdie, our little red speckled friend was able to stop the rolling advance of the ball. In previous columns I have written about the “Goliaths” in our lives that need to be defeated or the fact that we need to be dragon slayers and conquer those fire-breathing beasts. The focus was on the perceived bigger problems and opportunities in life that need to be tackled. But how often are we tripped up by the little things? So what are our ladybugs? What is it that is standing in the way of us reaching our goals
and dreams, completing our tasks, and making the most of the opportunities before us? Is it the simple fact of getting started and avoiding procrastination? Could it be as simple as getting better at the details? And maybe it’s just as small as not following through on an action or commitment. For our golfing buddy that ladybug may as well have been a brick wall. And for many of us, myself included, at different times in my life, have allowed something so small to become so huge that it prevented us from success. And there is a saying in golf that goes like this, “100 percent of balls that never make it to the hole will never go in.” And I think that can be said in our personal and professional lives as well. If we leave everything short, if we
continue to allow something little to stop us or slow us down, we may miss the opportunity to be better than average or mediocre while rising to greatness. Having written this column for the past five years, I have gotten to know the community really well through the letters and emails I receive and the back-and-forth correspondence with you all. And I can share with you that just like my buddy Caesar who shared the golf-ball-killing ladybug story above, I know that you are all wanting to realize your truest dreams and desires, not just almost reach them. Not just come close, not settling for par or average, but meet and even exceed your own expectations. So what’s stopping you? Is it a brick wall or is it just a ladybug-size issue that could easily be overcome? I really would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we recognize that the only thing that can stop us from success is us, it really will be a better than good week.

A bazaar crowd indeed Steady parade of shoppers visit annual Malley event By Tom Munds
tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com Joyce Cosgrove smiled as she sat a minute before taking the items she bought at the annual Malley Holiday Bazaar to her car. “This is the first time I have come to this event and it is wonderful,” the Arapahoe County resident said. “They have so many different kinds of things for sale. This has been a day well spent. I have 22 people on my Christmas list and now I only have two more gifts to buy.” There were 106 vendors offering a wide variety of items for sale at the Nov. 1 bazaar. One of those was Sam Todd, who had his woodcarvings for sale. “I am particularly proud of the eagle,” he said. “I created a wooden body then I made each of the feathers individually by hand. It sometimes took a day or more to do a feather. It was a lot of work but I think the finished product is worth it.” A former silversmith, Todd began woodcarving after he retired. “I’ve been doing woodcarvings for about 20 years,” the Englewood man said. “For some projects I just start with a block of wood. But I never throw any wood away because I use the shavings and other leftover items for other projects.” He smiles as he talks about the wide variety of tools he uses, ranging from saws to chisels, files and knives. “I like working with my hands,” he said. “I decide what I am going to carve and get started. It is a feeling of accomplishment to finish a project and have someone else appreciate it enough to buy it.”
Woodcarver Sam Todd said each feather on his eagle is individully handcarved. He has been a woodcarver for more than 20 years and creates a variety of items. He had samples of his work for sale at the Nov. 1 Malley Holiday Bazaar. Photos by Tom Munds

Wagner, commander of the 460 Space Wing at Buckley Air Force Base; and Thomas Muir, deputy secretary for administration for the National Cemetery Administration. The event includes placing a ceremonial wreath and flowers at a headstone symbolic of the thousands of headstones in the cemetery. The wreath placement is followed by the traditional 21-gun salute. As the last volley is fired, an array of horn players stationed around the lake will play the echo version of Taps. When the Fort Logan ceremony ends, lunch will be served at Verle Huffman VFW Post 9644, 2680 W. Hampden Ave. The nation began honoring veterans in 1926 when Armistice Day was held for the first time to remember the event that ended the World War and to honor those who served. That is when the tradition began to hold the ceremony on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, the same time day and month agreement to cease fighting went into effect in 1918, spelling the end to World War I. In 1938, it was declared a national holiday. In its early history, Armistice Day was focused on honoring World War I veterans. In the early 1950s, Congressman Edwin Rees, of Kansas, proposed changing the name of the holiday to Veterans Day and

I like to act and I tried to purr and curl up like a cat. I came to see the play but it was really fun to be part of putting it on because I like to act.” Kayt Huff brought her children to the play. “This was great fun for the kids and for those of us in the audience,” she said. “It was like a special amateur night at its best. I think all those on stage had fun. This is really a great program. It is a chance for the kids to do more than just sit and listen or watch the story. It is a chance for them to be a part of telling the story.”

Seven honored for community service Organizations each name individual for chamber award By Tom Munds
tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com The annual Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce’s Service Club Luncheon once again focused on honoring seven organizations for service to the community, plus there were ceremonies to present individual honors to one member of each of the organizations. The luncheon program is an annual chamber event and this year was held Oct. 28, with Jason Whyte, chamber president, serving as master of ceremonies. He said the traditional event is the opportunity to shine the spotlight on the work of community organizations such as service clubs and the schools. Each year, the organizations are asked to select an individual to be honored. A representative of the organization talks about the individual’s service and the chamber presents an award. This year, those honored included: • Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 322
member Wayne Bush for his service to the community and to veterans. • Englewood Rotary Club member David Lee for his dedication to helping others through programs like Meals on Wheels. • Englewood Lions Club member Jim Woodward for his work with the club on projects including providing eyewear for individuals and helping provide summer camp experiences to children with sight problems. • DTC Sertoma Club member Bill Cherf for his work on club projects and the fact he is club president and becomes Sertoma district governor in July. • Arapahoe Sertoma Club member Randy Smith for his work with a number of projects focused on assisting the those with hearing problems. • VFW 322 Women’s Auxiliary member Delia “Dee” Espinosa for volunteering for post projects, including work with those at a veteran’s hospital and her service on the VFW state color guard. • Former Englewood School Board President Karen Miller for her service to the district as well as her work as president of the Englewood Education Foundation that annually raises money to provide scholarship to graduates plus grants to teacher for projects not included in the budget.

Englewood High band second at state Competition cut short by inclement weather By Tom Munds
tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com Englewood High School held firmly to second place after the semifinals of the Class 2A state marching band competition but bad weather canceled the finals, which denied the Pirates the opportunity to challenge D’Evelyn for the state title. “We executed our best performance of the year in the semifinals. Everyone worked hard and I feel our performance peaked at the right time,” said Phil Emery, EHS music director. “We were disappointed we didn’t at least have the opportunity to
try to move up and win the state title. But it didn’t happen and I am proud of our band and our performances.” The performance done by the 55 members of the Pirate Marching Band was called “Disappear,” which involved moving out and in from behind screens set up on the field. “We increased the difficulty of our program this year,” Emery said. “The movements on the field were more completed and the music was more demanding because the music moved immediately from one number to the next. Usually there are short breaks between musical numbers.” Senior Drum Major Andrea Bowerman directed the performance. Emery also selected junior Paige Angley as the second drum major who played her instrument as a band member this year, preparing to take the podium and direct the band next
year. The state competition ended the marching band season. Emery said all his musicians now will become members of the EHS concert band and some will also become members of the jazz band. Looking ahead, Emery said the 13 members of the marching band who will graduate in 2015 will be missed. However, he said he does have the returning underclass members to anchor next year’s marching band. “I believe for the district to be used for general we also will be strengthened by those musicians now in the middle school band because, starting in January they will be here on the campus with us,” Emery said. “We will be able to work with them, encourage them and encourage them to join the Pirate Marching Band.”

About 25 Colorado’s Finest Alternative High School students assembled at Cushing Park about 10 a.m. Oct. 29 for a volunteer community service project. “This is a great event,” said Dylan Dyer, CFAHS teacher and event organizer. “My small world geography class has been studying the importance of water and rivers in our communities and world. We invited representative of The Thirst Project, to speak to our class.” The Thirst Project is an organization stressing the importance of clean drinking water and works to bring clean water to communities around the world. The class listened to the program and planned a local river cleanup along the Platte River and its tributaries, tied into a fundraising project for the Thirst Project. Once the class decided to do the clean-

up, the students sought additional volunteers so they asked other students to be part of the project. About 30 students signed up and, because of transportation, the group was limited to 25. “We started our Oct. 29 projects to pick up trash at Cushing Park,” Dyer said. “We followed the Little Dry Creek Trail to the South Platte River Trail and south to the Harvard Gulch Trail. We filled 17 extra-large garbage bags with trash.” Isiah Allen, CFAHS student, said the cleanup was a great event. “It felt good to have the chance to help the community look better,” he said. “There was a lot of trash to pick up but it was nice to be out of class and doing something helpful for the community.” Allen was one of the students who talked to other Colorado’s Finest Alternative High School classes about the project, seeking additional volunteers. “I was surprised how many kids thought the project was a good idea and were willing to sign up as volunteers,” he said. “We feel it was really a success and we hope to be able to schedule another cleanup date some time soon.”

Planning meeting scheduled By Tom Munds
tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com City officials are urging residents to attend a Nov. 14 meeting that will focus on three major planning projects that are in the works. The projects are all part of Englewood Forward and include updating the comprehensive plan, taking the next step in the light rail corridor study and developing the city’s walk and wheel master bicycle and pedestrian plan. City officials have hired separate consultants to work on each of the projects and said that all of them are expected to have a direct impact on the future of Englewood and on ways to address transportation in and around the community.
The meeting will begin with a general information session and then groups will split off to separate stations that will have specific information about each of the three planning projects. “We would like residents to take part in this meeting by offering their comments on these plans,” said Alan White, Englewood’s community development director. The meeting is scheduled for 6-8:30 p.m. Nov. 14 and will begin in Hampden Hall on the second floor of the Englewood Civic Center, 1000 Englewood Parkway. Information about the meeting and projects is at www.EnglewoodForward.org. Residents can visit the site to learn more about the studies, provide feedback on the planning processes and to sign up to receive updates and meeting reminders.

MAKES A SPLASH IN LITTLETON
Exhibit whips its way into Denver gallery The Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, 1485 Delgany St., is hosting an exhibit of the art of Mark Mothersbaugh, co-founder of the New Wave band Devo (famous for its 1980 hit “Whip It”), through April 12. Mark Mothersbaugh: Myopia” is the first retrospective of the artist’s work from the beginning of his career in the early 1970s through the present. Almost all of Mothersbaugh’s visual art originates with drawings on postcards, which he has been working on daily since the ‘70s. His postcards, which now exceed 30,000, provide the basic imagery for his paintings, prints, rugs, videos and sculptures. For more information, go to www.mcadenver.org/markmothersbaugh.php.
Men’s health is focus
“Morning in Manarola” by Kate Wyman will be included in “Art of Water” at Littleton Town Hall’s Stanton Gallery through Jan. 5. Courtesy photos
Four painters exhibit work through holidays By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com Four area painters will combine their works in a show called “The Art of Water” at Town Hall’s Stanton Gallery in Littleton from Nov. 6 to Jan. 5. A meet-the-artists reception is planned from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 22. The four are: Colette Brooks, Kay Juricek, Joanne Sisun and Kate Wyman. Brooks, who paints with oils, is a graduate of the Colorado Institute of Art. She has studied with Dennis R. Pendleton, Ken Velastro and Chuck Ceraso, who traces his training to French and American impressionists through his instructor, Charles Hawthorne. Brooks’ paintings include European subjects, animal portraits, and Colorado landscapes. Kay Juricek said that her paintings in this exhibit “are of barrier islands: low-lying, narrow strips of land that sit precariously off the coastline. They’re lovely, secluded tropical places to shell, watch wildlife such as pelicans and other birds, soak up sun and relax. We visit southwest Florida often and especially love these beautiful, unpopulated beaches.” She grew up in Nebraska and graduated from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, where she studied with landscape artist Keith Jacobshagen. A master’s degree in library science from Columbia University followed, and she has been a faculty member at the university of Wyoming and at Colorado School of Mines in Golden. She began painting portraits on commission in 1990, as well as landscapes and still lifes in acrylics, oils and pastels, and has exhibited locally and nationally. She now paints in her Denver studio and enjoys travel in the American West. Joanne Sisun has bachelor’s and master’s degrees and an MBA, and worked in business before she began studying at the Art Students League of Denver in 2000. She has studied with Ron Hicks since 2001 and is an assistant for his Atlier group at ASLD. She writes that she “is interested in the challenge of creating

In an effort to raise awareness of men’s health issues, the Tavern Hospitality Group has created an official Movember USA team called “StacheTag Tavern.” People can join Tavern’s team to support the cause at www. moteam.co/stachetag-tavern. The Movember Foundation is dedicated to having an everlasting impact on the face of men’s health. Their annual Movember campaign involves the growing of mustaches during the month of November to raise awareness of men’s health issues, such as prostate cancer and other male cancers and associated charities. As Movember USA team members grow mustaches, they try to encourage friends and family to support the cause by pledging funds to their particular page. “This is our first year to participate in Movember,” said Frank Schultz, owner of Tavern Hospitality Group. “I think most people know someone who’s been affected by a health issue that is specific to men. We wanted to help raise funds for research and treatment. I hope we have a lot of people join our team so we can make an impact.” The Tavern is giving a free shave at Floyd’s Barbershop and a $150 Tavern gift card to the “StacheTag Tavern” team member who ends up with the best mustache at the end of the month. Tavern Hospitality Group has eight locations in Uptown, Downtown, Lowry, Tech Center, Wash Park, Littleton, Mile High and Ballpark neighborhoods. For additional information, visit www.tavernhg.com.
`Kinky Boots’ a real kick
“Double Dutch” by Colette Brooks depicts a pair of bikes parked by a canal in Amsterdam. It will also be featured in the exhibit. atmosphere and narrative in paintings of figures, landscapes and objects. In the musical, `Anything Goes,’ dressing up in disguises is a recurrent theme.” Her “Theatrical Figure #1” illustrates her interest in painting figures in theatrical disguises, which offer opportunities for “creating narrative and atmosphere.” (Perhaps her masked figure appeared along Venice canals during Carnival?) Kate Wyman said she grew up on the Jersey Shore, although she has lived in Colorado most of her adult life. She has always enjoyed art and “creating” and is mainly self-taught, although she has enjoyed workshops and classes in Colorado, Pennsylvania and Virginia. She likes to work in watercolors because of the clean, fresh look and is a Signature member of the Colorado Watercolor Society and a member of Park Hill Artists, Roxborough Arts Council, Grace Gallery (Santa Fe Arts District) and Shadow Mountain Gallery in Evergreen.
“Kinky Boots,” the smash-hit Broadway musical, is a real kick in the ... well, you fill in the blank. The 2013 Tony Award-winning musical, with the story by Harvey Fierstein and score by Cyndi Lauper, plays The Buell Theatre through Nov. 9. This one is well worth your entertainment dollar for two hours of an uplifting theatrical experience that will set your toes tapping. The story is about a failing English shoe factory that reinvents itself to feed the soles of a niche audience (the transvestite community) with man-sized hip-high blingy boots. For tickets, go to www.denvercenter.org or call 303-893-4100.
Meersman bids adieu
“Disguise-Theatrical Figure # 1” by Joanne Sisun looks like a fellow one might see along the canals in Venice at Carnivale time. It’s included in “Art of Water” at Littleton’s Town Hall.
Outgoing Colorado Restaurant Association president and CEO Pete Meersman got a hearty sendoff Oct. 28 when roughly 150 friends and fans gathered at the Denver ChopHouse & Brewery. Meersman’s CRA career spanned 32 years, starting in sales. He will assume the new parttime role as chief strategy officer for the CRA. Sonia Riggs, the former director of the Colorado Division of the American Institute of Architects, will step into Meersman’s well-worn shoes as the new president and CEO. Parker continues on Page 18

Then, “Heirlooms & History: Glimpses into 19th Century Lives from Unique Family Documents,” by Tom Tyler, is at 1 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 18. Journals of an ancestor’s two voyages on a Nantucket whaling ship in the 1820s and 1830s led to a family history quest that is still ongoing. A more complete biography of the Nantucket whaler and his family emerged. A museum database available online provided useful facts but also raised questions. Google Books library, online historic maps and newspapers, as well as other Internet resources, yielded narrative material as well as explaining old skeletons (e.g. slave ownership, murder, divorce, etc.). The annual Christmas potluck luncheon “Christmas Memories” will be Tuesday, Dec. 9. The group meets at Lutheran Church of the Holy Spirit, 6400 S. University Blvd., Centennial.

Sarto’s opens
After a seemingly endless wait, Sarto’s Italian Eatery opened Oct. 28 in the Jefferson Park district of Denver, anchoring the southwest corner on the historic square at 2900 W. 25th Ave. The sister spot, Sarto’s Pantry, is to open this month. Led by entrepreneur Taylor Swallow, his wife Kajsa, and award-winning executive chef Brian Laird, Sarto’s offers metropolitan Italian “tailored” cuisine in a foodand-drink-forward social environment. “We’re so fortunate to have Brian on board because of his experience and track record, and we know his food is going to be spectacular,” Taylor said. Named for the Italian word “tailor,” Sarto’s is focused on providing an experience that is fit to their individual guests, from dish “alterations” to tailored protein portions. Open Tuesday through Sunday, 5 to 10 p.m, Sarto’s is 4,000 square feet and can accommodate 60 guests in the dining room and another 30 guests between the bar and
cicchetti bar. Sharing the space’s north side storefront is Sarto’s Pantry, a gourmet market and deli where guests can purchase many of the ingredients used by Laird, including pre-packaged handmade pastas, or enjoy a casual dining experience. Pantry guests choose from panini, pizza, soup, salads, or meat and cheese boards to take home or enjoy onsite with a glass of wine. Sarto’s Pantry will open on November 3 and will be open 11 to 8 p.m. seven days a week.

Bruins advance to state Cherry Creek earns state berth by winning regional tourney By Tom Munds
tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com After winning the Region 9 volleyball tournament Cherry Creek has punched its ticket and is headed for the Denver Coliseum. The Bruins will be among 12 regional qualifiers to compete at the Nov. 7 and 8 state tournament. The teams will be seeded for three-team pool play and each pool winner will then advance to the state semifinals. Cherry Creek’s opening match will be Nov. 7 against No. 1 seed Eaglecrest. Pool play is scheduled to begin at 8 a.m. Nov. 7 and the Bruins are slated to take on Eaglecrest in the second round of play in their pool. Cherry Creek emerged from the Nov. 1 round-robin Region 9 tournament by topping Loveland and Castle View each by a 3-1 score. The Bruins took the first two games from Loveland by scores of 25-17 and 2523, before dropping the third, 25-19. Creek bounced back with a 25-20 win in the fourth. Castle View knocked off Loveland in the second match of the day, setting up a winner-take-all finale between the Bruins and Sabercats in the day’s third match. The Sabercats built an early lead and went on to win the first game, 25-18 but Cherry Creek reversed the tempo, built an early lead and won the second game, 2517. The third game became a seesaw battle with teams exchanging points for nine serves. But Allison Hand found the right spots with her serves, helping the Bruins score six straight points to take the lead at 21-14 and they went on to win the game, 25-17. After a short break, the teams took to the court for the fourth game that proved to be a lengthy, hard-fought battle. Castle View trailed early but tied the score at 13. The tie was the first of seven ties until

the score stood at 19-19. The Bruins then scored three straight points to take the lead for good and went on to win the deciding game, 25-22. “They gave us a test but we rallied and got the win,” said Cherry Creek coach Sally Moos. “We have some times where we are inconsistent in the things we do and that showed at times today. Right now, with the loss of Taylor Cooper to injury, we are a little weak in the middle. But we are working to correct that and get better.” She said the Bruins depend on teamwork to use all the players as a way to com-
pensate for the fact that there isn’t a lot of height on the Cherry Creek team. “We just focus on teamwork to make the passes and make the defensive plays to keep us in the games,” Moos said. “We are a good team with talent and our teamwork makes us strong.” Shea Reilly is the Bruins’ defensive specialist and libero. “This was a pretty competitive match because they knew we were a talented team,” Reilly said after playing Castle View. “We knew they were strong with their outside hitter Madison Laufenberg. She really
hits the ball hard enough to hurt when you receive it. But it is fun to receive her serve and keep the ball in play.” She said the regional win is a boost for the team. “Today was an important win for us because it has been a sort of up and down season for us. We have had some big wins but we have also had some tough losses,” she said. “The win means we are going to state and going to state is so much fun. We want to take it to heart so we can play our best volleyball of the season at the state tournament.”
Lions streak, playoff hopes end in finale Dakota Ridge gets best of Littleton, 45-7 By Tom Munds
tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com Littleton High School’s bid for a berth in the state Class 4A football tournament ended Oct. 31 when the Lions lost the final game of the regular season — and a shot at an outright 4A Plains title — to Dakota Ridge, 45-7. “This wasn’t like I wished the game had turned out but we played hard so it is alright,” said Littleton coach Kurt Krantz. “This season is huge for Littleton football. We are still trying to grow up as a program and this is a step in that direction.” The Lions came into the Oct. 31 game with a 5-4 record and 4-0 league mark. With the loss they settled for a 4-1 league finish and share the title with Dakota Ridge and Ponderosa. And while Dakota Ridge earned the No. 6 seed in the postseason and Ponderosa was awarded the No. 16 seed, Littleton will stay home with its 5-5 record. The season finale got off on a good note for the Lions as they took the opening kickoff, marched down the field and scored a touchdown for a fast 7-0 lead. The Lions depended heavily on the running game to advance the ball and, just over midfield, used a quarterback sneak from Joey Drennan to make a first down when they faced a fourth-and-one situa-
“We started the season slow, but put together a four-game winning streak that was huge for our program. We turned things around by convincing the kids to get better every week, get away from worrying about wins and losses. We told them they needed to believe in themselves and to believe they could win football games.” Krantz said he has 18 seniors who will graduate in June but he has a strong group of players returning. “We were concerned about senior leadership this year but we challenged them, they stepped up and we had a good season,” he said. “We’ll do that again, asking the kids to grow, to believe in themselves and provide our leadership.” The coach said, when the kids turn in their football equipment, he will encourage them to play all the other sports they can, get into the weight room regularly and start thinking about how Littleton can be a better football team next season. Teammates Eric Lyons (32) and Dante Kakula (17) move out to block for Littleton ballcarrier Tre Blake (21) during the Senior Tre Blake spearheaded the Lions Oct. 31 game against Dakota Ridge to decide the league title.

Global stature on the rise Business leaders weigh 3 million mark in metro Denver
A GREAT PLACE TO BE
By Amy Woodward and Jane Reuter Staff writers
Denver may be home to more than 600,000 people, but add the surrounding cities and counties, and the Denver metro area is expected to collectively grow to 3 million people. In fact, it may have already happened, a milestone that firmly places the area on the international radar in the global competition for jobs. According to estimates from the State Demographer’s Office, the population may have hit the 3 million mark in mid-August, but demographers won’t know for sure until next July, said Elizabeth Garner, a state demographer. In July, the estimated population of the Denver area was 2.951 million people. “The growth that Colorado is experiencing right now is not that unusual,” said Garner, reporting an increase of 78,000 people last year compared to 120,000 people at one time during the 1990s. Typical or not, local political and business leaders are taking notice of the population growth and weighing in about what that means for the area. “It’s a brave new world for us,” said Tom Clark, chief executive of the Metro Denver Economic Development Corp. and executive vice president of the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce. “At 2 million people, a metropolitan region becomes a perpetual job machine,” he said, citing a study conducted by a research economist in the early 1990s. At the 2 million mark, a city begins to grow its own jobs and becomes selfsustaining, Clark explained. Money stays within the community longer and exits later while wealth and income tend to go up. But at 3 million, a city or in this case — a metropolitan area — makes its debut on the world stage. “Three million begins to put you into a
Among the flurry of development in the Lone Tree area is a 230-unit apartment complex on the west side of Park Meadows Drive north of Lincoln Avenue. Two other apartment complexes are under construction at the Lincoln light rail station. Photo by Jane Reuter global competition for jobs,” Clark said. In the past, Colorado’s biggest competitors for job locations were Phoenix and Dallas. Today, Colorado’s direct competitors to the south are overshadowed by cities much farther away such as Dublin, Singapore and Toronto. Clark credits transportation build-out, infrastructure and a highly diverse economy for putting the Denver area on the global market. He pinpointed specific areas of the state’s economy that are in line with the U.S. economy — green and fossil energy, health care and wellness, IT, telecom, bio-tech, aerospace and financial services. Most of those industries already are well represented in Douglas County, which is seeing some of the fastest job-growth in the country. That isn’t expected to change anytime soon, with demographers predicting the population to grow by another
third from about 315,000 to 478,000 in the next 25 years. Much of that growth will center around light rail, predicts Jeff Holwell, Lone Tree’s economic development director and former chief operating officer for the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce. “New investment in office and commercial facilities is frequently moving towards transit and transit-oriented developments because it’s accessible for their employees,” he said. “It’s becoming a pretty significant driver in new development. Because of that, Lone Tree is very well positioned for that kind of sustainable growth.” Three additional light rail stops are planned in Lone Tree when the southeast extension is constructed, two of them on the currently undeveloped area of Lone Tree east of I-25. Among the goals in the south metro area are investments that will make it a

Colorado ranked first in the country for the lowest obesity rate. A study released by Trust for America’s Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation considered adult obesity rates by state and reported that every state had obesity rates above 20 percent. Colorado reported the lowest rate of 21.3 percent. A recent study by WalletHub ranked Colorado as the fourth happiest state in the country. The study considered 26 key metrics including emotional health, income levels, and sports participation rates. The top three happiest states in order were Utah, Minnesota and North Dakota. Outside magazine released a ranking of the 100 best companies to work, with 28 of those businesses located in Colorado. Four of the top 10 spots and half of the top 20 were Colorado companies. Sphero, a Boulder-based robotic toy manufacturer, ranked third, the highest spot of all Colorado companies. Also in the top 20 was GroundFloor Media (4th), Zen Planner (6th), New Belgium Brewing (7th), ReadyTalk (11th), Global Works (14th), RoundPegg (15th), Cloud 9 Living (16th), TDA_Boulder (18th), and Adaptive Sports Center (20th). major employment base. “Currently, Lone Tree residents are either driving to Denver or Arapahoe County before they drive to a Douglas County employer,” said Holwell. “As we attract more primary employment, having the option to live and work in the same community is a major goal of our economic development. You can live here and not have to fight the congestion.” The south metro area is already home to several Fortune 500 companies, including CH2M Hill, DISH Network, Liberty Interactive, Western Union and Arrow Electronics. Drawing more large employers, a range of housing options and creating walkable, transit-oriented developments also will help cut down on the traffic and environmental impacts growth is likely to bring. “We’re going to continue to grow whether we like it or not,” Clark said. “You need to be spending money to take good care of those assets that you don’t get back if you screw them up.”
SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF NOV 3, 2014
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Lots of choices could make it difficult to select what is best for your needs. Avoid snap judgments. Take the time to check them all out to find the one that really meets your goals. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) You could once again experience pressure from others who would like to see you move in another direction. But heed your Bovine instincts to stay on your own path. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Taking charge of a project that seems to be about to stall or collapse altogether could be a challenge. But once everyone knows what you expect of him or her, things should go smoothly.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Avoid the pressures of the upcoming holiday period by setting a time right now to discuss how to divide up the responsibility of helping a loved one come through a difficult period. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) It’s not too early for all you Leonas and Leos to start making long-distance travel plans. The sooner you stop procrastinating and start deciding where, when and how you’re going, the better. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Someone you’ve known for years might disappoint you, or even make you feel you’ve been betrayed. But check the facts carefully before you make charges that could backfire on you. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) A holiday plan might need to be revised to accommodate an unexpected complication. Come up with an alternative arrangement as soon as possible to avoid more problems down the line. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Don’t accept halfway explanations for a situation that requires full disclosure. The more you know now, the better able you will be to handle any complications that might arise. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) The cooperation you relied upon might not be easy to get. Maybe there’s an information gap. See if everyone understands the situation. If not, be sure to offer a full explanation. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Problems caused by that recent workplace distraction should soon be easing, allowing you to resume working at a less frantic pace. That personal matter also begins to ease up. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Changing your mind about a job decision isn’t easy for the usually committed Aquarian. But once you check it out, you’ll find facts you didn’t know before. And facts don’t lie. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Your unique way of sizing up a situation gives you an edge in resolving that upsetting workplace problem. Stay on your current course regardless of any attempts to distract you. BORN THIS WEEK: You are emotionally attuned to what’s going on around you, and you easily pick up on people’s needs. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

receive an unbiased hearing from the state board.” The academy submitted charter school applications to the Englewood, Littleton and Sheridan school districts. Academy board members withdrew the application to Littleton. Both Englewood and Sheridan denied the application. Gillit said Oct. 30 that the academy plans to appeal the both the Englewood and the Sheridan decisions to the state board of education. TriCity Academy has to file the appeal to the state within 30 days of the Englewood board decision. The state board’s website says it will notify both parties within 10 days whether or not the appeal is accepted or rejected. If it is accepted, within 60 days the state board will hold a hearing and render a decision. This is the third year in row Englewood has received an application to permit a charter school to be established within the school district, but it is the first year the application was filed by TriCity Academy. The Englewood School Board has rejected all three applications. This will be the first time the board decision will be appealed. The charter school proponents want to open the academy — a free public school of choice — in August 2015. There are currently charter schools in Littleton but none in Sheridan or Englewood. Supporters stressed the desire to establish a charter school is to offer area students a school of choice and to serve the area so Englewood students stay in the community and go to school in Englewood. The proposal is to open the school for kindergartners through fifth-graders in August with about 400 students. The plan is to have the school grow to about 675 students in kindergarten through eighth grade by 2019. Plans are to use a core knowledge curriculum and to use technology to address a wide variety of learning styles. Expectations are for high achievements from students and staff. In the Oct. 28 meeting, Englewood School Board member Kevin Ebert said he was concerned that no district residents have told him they want a charter school, but a lot of parents and residents have told him the district doesn’t need a charter school. Other concerns from board members included the fact that the proposed school would not provide transportation for students and would have a food service program to provide meals for the students. Tucker listed most of those concerns among the reasons that the board denied the charter application.
