Las Cazuelas Mexican restaurant in Lakewood has a 40-year history, Tony Silva said, but he “got tired of being confined to the same four walls.” So he started the Tony Guacamole Food Truck last July.

The menus, however, are completely different. With the food truck, he is able to specialize in guacamole, and offers three or four different guacamole selections at any given time.

jsmith @coloradocommunitymedia.com Wondering what all the urbanrenewal ruckus is about? Here are the basics to know before voting in Littleton’s March 3 special election.

At its heart, urban renewal is a way for a municipality to incentivize development or redevelopment by using a mix of public (taxpayer) money and private investment. An urban-renewal authority can do things like sell bonds to finance a project, and retain a share of future tax revenue generated by a project to pay back the bondholders.

Anne Ricker, consultant to Littleton’s urban-renewal authority, says it’s meant to fill in the financial gaps when required improvements to infrastructure make a project unfeasible for a private investor.

By way of example, imagine you own an older building on Littleton Boulevard, where there is now an urban-renewal plan in place, and you want to build an addition. But when

The entire Santa Fe Drive corridor in Littleton, from County Line Road to Prince Street on the west side, is one of the four urban renewal areas. File photo you go to the city to pull a building permit, you find out you’ll have to bring the whole building up to current code. That means you have to install a fire-suppression system and maybe replace the sidewalk and install ramps to comply with the Americans With Disabilities Act. Perhaps you can afford to do one or the other, but not both. So,

say proponents of urban renewal, maybe it’s not worth it to do anything, and the building continues to fall into disrepair. Alternately, you could take advantage of urban-renewal funds to bring the building up to code and cure the conditions of blight, while using your own money for the addition.

Local trailblazer poised for new path South Suburban’s Lorenz retiring after decades of dedication to parks and rec

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Dave Lorenz, executive director of South Suburban Parks and Recreation, grew up in the rough-and-tumble world of north Denver, in the mainly Polish community of Globeville.

Jeans, white T-shirts and tennis shoes were standard attire, and he and his friends knew how to have a good time.

But he was smart and a good student, which led him on a path to the University of Colorado’s engineering program in 1961.

“I didn’t fit in there,” he said. “Everybody had slide rules, and the buildings didn’t excite me.”

Same story when he changed his major to business. But when a career counselor suggested parks and recreation, he knew he’d found his calling and packed his bags for the University of Utah.

“It was a hard decision, but one of my best decisions,” he said. “I left all my old friends behind. I was still dating girls from high school and running with the same crowd. It was good for me to get away.”

After college, he volunteered for the Army at the height of the Vietnam War. With his degree in recreation, he hoped to be assigned to special services to help build morale among the troops.

“But they said, `Son, there’s a war in Vietnam, and you’re going to Vietnam to the infantry just like everybody else,’ ” he remembers.

It didn’t work out that way. Somebody made a mistake, he said, and he ended up in France, then Germany, running USO shows and service clubs and other activities.

“We had a great time,” he said.

He successfully applied for an early out to get his master’s degree after nearly two years, and came home to Denver.

In 1967, he heard about a job opening at South Suburban Parks and Recreation. He jumped at the chance to make $5,800 a year as the recreation supervisor. Back in the day, the district had just one fitness class, taught in the upstairs gym at Arapahoe High School. It

Dave Lorenz is retiring after 48 years with South Suburban Parks and Recreation District. Courtesy photo managed just two pools, Harlow and Franklin, plus the AHS pool during non-school hours for the public.

There also was just one skating rink.

Boone’s Ice Rink was outdoors, on the southeast corner of Belleview Avenue and Windermere Street where Colorado Journey is now.

Lorenz remembers it as the happening place to be in the late 1960s, with hockey players and figure skaters filling the ice.

But there was one downside, recalls Lorenz. For a few nights each November, he’d round up a few of the hockey players to help him make the ice, taking shifts two or three hours at a time, drinking beer and eating pizza. And every time it snowed, he’d have to go shovel off the lake.

“I thought, `What have I gotten into?’ I think I came down with pneumonia and was out for a while,” he remembers.

Building a legacy Today, there are two indoor skating rinks, hundreds of fitness classes, dozens of playgrounds, four pools and nearly 100 miles of

trails, along with every other amenity a community could hope for in its parks and recreation district.

“I helped get the district from infancy to maturity,” he said. “I think it takes a different type of leadership to maintain what we have rather than to grow and mature, and I don’t find that exciting. It’s time to have a new voice, new vision and new expectations.”

Lorenz, 72, will retire March 31 after 48 years with South Suburban.

“We have a quality staff, a quality board and we’re in good financial shape,” he said.

“And in the last three years, all the cities I work with got new city managers. New relationships are being formed. Now is a good time for the district’s board to select the new leadership.”

Charlie Blosten, Littleton’s public works director, says residents have greatly benefited from Lorenz’s leadership.

“He’s helped make the area one of the most desired places to live in the Denver-metro area,” he said. “He has been involved in numerous efforts to improve and expand the

trails, parks and open spaces that we all enjoy today and will for many years to come.”

South Suburban serves more than 135,000 residents in Littleton, Sheridan, Columbine Valley, Bow Mar, Lone Tree, western Centennial and portions of unincorporated Jefferson, Douglas and Arapahoe counties.

There is one thing Lorenz didn’t get done that he would have liked.

“There were several times we had opportunities that didn’t materialize, but the one thing that stands out to me as I drive down Broadway is Marathon,” he said.

The district had hoped to acquire the 77acre former Marathon Oil property at Broadway and Dry Creek Avenue and turn it into sports fields. But cities like their tax revenue, and it wasn’t to be. Bulldozers are currently turning over dirt to make way for Littleton Village, a residential and commercial development.

It’s a big site, but only about half the size of Lorenz’s namesake park. David Lorenz Regional Park in Centennial, where Lorenz lives, is 150-plus acres of recreation on the site of an old landfill. It was actually his son’s brainchild, born of a love for BMX racing.

Retiring to ‘something’

Lorenz hopes his legacy is more than just a park, though.

“I hope I’m known for having integrity and making wise decisions about expenditures of funds, and for following through on our promises,” he said. “I hope the board hires someone with integrity, vision, ability to communicate and to operate. So much of what we do depends on relationships.”

One major issue his replacement will have to deal with is the High Line Canal, says Lorenz.

“It is in jeopardy,” he said. “We need to preserve and enhance it somehow. It’s going to be a long process.”

Lorenz promises to not be a stranger to SSPR golf courses, parks, trails and other facilities, but also not to meddle.

“I’m not interested at this time in going back to work anyplace, but the door’s open, so who knows what’s there once you walk through the door,” he says. “You don’t retire from something, you retire to something. I don’t have that something except to live and play and enjoy.”

Lawmakers deny death with dignity bill Concerns over reaction from state health care system

DEATH WITH DIGNITY MEASURE REJECTED

By Amy Woodward

SPONSORED BY:

awoodward @colorado communitymedia.com After 10 hours of emotional testimony from more than 100 witnesses, Colorado state representatives rejected the “death with dignity” bill, which would have allowed terminally ill patients to end their lives with the help of medical practitioners.

Lawmakers on the Public Health Care and Human Services committee voted down the bill 8-5 on Feb. 6.

“The principal of personal choice is something I have worked for my entire career,” said Rep. Jessie Danielson, D-Wheat Ridge. “...this bill has honor in it its intent, and this was a struggle for me, but right now this bill today is not the solution.”

Testimony received from people living with disabilities who stated the bill lacked any safeguards for discrimination from the state’s health care system that already provides obstacles for treatment options underscored some lawmakers votes for denial.

“There just aren’t enough safeguards, especially for our most vulnerable population,” said Rep. Justin Everett, R-Jefferson County. “We have to make sure that everyone is protected.”

Carrie Ann Lucas, a resident of Windsor who has multiple disabilities, including a progressive neuromuscular disease, said the passing of the Colorado Death With Dignity Act would drive insurance companies to help disabled people to die instead of getting them the help they need.

“I’ve had to fight insurance denials that refuse to pay for my dental aid and other equipment to live, and I’ve had to fight efforts to keep doctors from putting a do not resuscitate order in my medical file,” Lucas said. “I don’t want to die, I’m not ready to die and I don’t want to be driven towards

Several attorneys and other representatives from advocacy groups for persons living with disabilities echoed Lucas’ statements.

Colorado’s bill was modeled after Oregon’s. The bill would have required dying patients who have six months left to live to receive approval from two doctors for lethal medication.

In the U.S., three states — Oregon, Washington and Vermont — have adopted similar right-to die legislation.

States such as New Mexico and Montana have either ruled that it’s a patient’s constitutional right to obtain aid in dying, or, as the case in Montana, doctors are protected from writing a lethal dose prescription.

Some proponents for the bill testified on behalf of religious views, but supporters argued the choice to end one’s live is a personal freedom.

David Hibbard, a 77-year-old hospice physician who has Parkinson’s disease and lymphocytic leukemia, testified in support of the bill.

Through his medical experience and education, Hibbard knows all to well what lies ahead as his illnesses progress.

urban renewal in littleton

Getting to know Littleton Strong

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Ballot Measure 2A is a product of the group Littleton Strong.

The measure says: “Shall the Littleton city charter be amended so that the use of eminent domain and condemnation in an urban renewal plan by the Littleton urban renewal authority (LIFT) be prohibited except at the request of a property owner?”

History This group has support from people affiliated with Citizens for Littleton’s Future, formed in 2007 to elect “forwardlooking citizens to the Littleton City Council, and to support ballot issues that help Littleton move forward in a positive direction,” according to the website.

Some of those folks include former city councilmembers Amy Conklin and Stewart Meagher, former Mayor Susan Thornton and local Realtor Kay Watson, who is also on the Littleton Public Schools Foundation board.

The group formed in large part to oppose the efforts of the “Sunshine Boy” council that was seated in 2007. Doug Clark and Peggy Cole defeated Conklin and Tony Gallagher in the at-large race, and Jose Trujillo beat Bruce Stahlman, who is the current council’s liaison to the urban-renewal board.

In 2013, C4LF supported Bruce Beckman and Bruce Stahlman in their successful at-large campaigns for city council against Sunshine Boy John Watson.

But they’ve been largely quiet in recent years until last year, when Meagher and Watson began turning up at council meetings in support of a new crop of development projects around the city.

They were sometimes joined by Norman Stucker, who was president of the Littleton Business Coalition in 2013.

Now they’ve all signed on to the efforts of Littleton Strong, which successfully lobbied Littleton City Council in December to put ballot measure 2A in front of the voters.

It prohibits the use of eminent domain and condemnation in urbanrenewal plans unless requested by the property owner.

They’re joined by an ever-growing list of influential Littleton residents, ranging from past and sitting elected officials, including Councilmember Debbie Brinkman, to bureaucrats, business owners, developers, contractors and real-estate agents.

Talking points for their cause • Urban renewal is just one tool in the community’s toolbox, but it is a vital and transformative one that more than 45 cities and towns across Colorado use to invest in their communities. Arapahoe Community College was created more than 40 years ago as an urban-renewal project.

• Referendum 2A would change the city charter and prohibit the city from using eminent domain and condemnation for urban-renewal purposes, unless it is requested by the affected property owner. Littleton Strong raised concerns

LIFT Continued from Page 1

But, say urban-renewal opponents, what if someone who owns a building on Main Street, which is not in the plan area, is in the same situation? Urban renewal, they say, picks winners and losers, and unfairly uses taxpayer money to benefit private-property owners and developers.

Littleton Invests for Tomorrow is the city’s urban-renewal authority, or URA. It was originally named the Riverfront Authority, and by selling bonds, it created the Riverfront Festival Center mall in 1985. But the timing was bad, and a major recession led to the mall’s demise in 1989. It now houses DISH Network, on the southwest corner of Bowles Avenue and Santa Fe Drive.

about property owner protections, and city council listened and referred 2A to the ballot. Littleton businesses, property owners and residents do have a voice in urban renewal.

• Reinvestment through urban renewal can catalyze not just the challenging sites into vibrant destinations, it can create new local jobs, stabilize property values, generate additional tax revenues to support community basic services and deliver a wide range of community improvements.

• Colorado’s urban-renewal law is one of the most restrictive in the nation, and it protects property owners, other government entities and stakeholders. Littleton’s urban-renewal plans are studied, reviewed and discussed in public hearings, with decisions made by the elected members of city council.

Talking points against their opponents’ cause • Initiative 300 will create more risk, unpredictability and costs onto every urban renewal opportunity, which will discourage investment in Littleton and close the door on economic development opportunities in our commercial corridors and light-rail stations.

• Littleton is not going to condemn anyone’s home. Backers of Initiative 300 who suggest that Littleton is going to condemn and take away homes are simply not telling the truth. This is a scare tactic, and it is false •Initiative 300 does not add more transparency to the urban renewal process, it merely proposes that every urban-renewal item be put into a citywide vote, which will discourage reinvestment and improvements in Littleton.

What they’re saying • “It enhances the quality of life when a community is vibrant and moving forward,” said Kay Watson, a Realtor who is a longtime board member of the Littleton Public Schools Foundation. “… I don’t feel like Littleton has been that inviting to the millennials. We need to focus on what they want, and how we can provide those amenities that will be a big draw for them. Change is inevitable, and if you don’t plan for it, you’re going to get something you really don’t want. You’re going to get boarded-up buildings, lower property values and declining school enrollment.”

• “No individual or group of people is going to get rich off of urban renewal, but the community is going to be enriched,” said Stew Meagher, a Realtor and former city councilmember. “Our failure as a community is to not critically approach the areas around the two light-rail stations. It fails to recognize the vision of the city in lowering the train tracks (under Main Street). The city leaders in those days had the vision to do what needed to be done. We knew light rail was coming, and we got ready for it.

It came, and now we’re sort of losing that momentum. … When did we turn from being a bold, forward-thinking community to being a bunch of NIMBYs? Is this who we are now, that everything has to go to an election?”

The original bonds were eventually paid off, and the city wrote off the authority’s millions in debt. It could have simply disbanded, but it changed its name to Littleton Invests for Tomorrow, with the stated goal of redevelopment, revitalization and renewal of areas within the city.

LIFT hired Ricker to survey the conditions in four areas: the Santa Fe corridor from Prince Street to just south of Mineral Avenue; the Broadway corridor from north of Powers Avenue to south of Littleton Boulevard; the Columbine Square area at Belleview Avenue and Federal Boulevard; and the Littleton Boulevard corridor from Windermere Street to Bannock Street.

The LIFT board, the city’s planning board and city council approved all four plan areas last year. There are no owner-occupied, single-family homes included, nor are there churches or any property owned by the city

Getting to know Your Littleton, Your Vote

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Initiative 300 is a product of the group Your Littleton, Your Vote.

The measure says: “Any council action approving or modifying an urban renewal plan pursuant to Part 1 of the Colorado Urban Renewal Law must be ratified by the registered electors of the city of Littleton if the approval or modification of the urban renewal plan proposes the use of or change to eminent domain, condemnation, tax increment financing, revenue sharing, or cost sharing.”

History Many members of Your Littleton, Your Vote are also affiliated with Citizens for Rational Development, which initially formed in 2013 to successfully fight off a plan to build a four-story apartment complex on the site of the old sheriff’s building at Littleton Boulevard and Bemis Street. CRD remains active, fighting virtually every proposed development or redevelopment since, and now urban renewal, too.

CRD has its roots in the Sunshine Boys, which began in 2002 as a few folks drawn together by opposition to Littleton’s grocery tax. It evolved into a successful campaign to repeal the tax, and its membership and issues have continued to evolve over the years.

The anti-Walmart campaign in 2007 found affinity with the Sunshine Boys, leading to their takeover of city council in that year’s election. Sitting member Tom Mulvey was joined by Debbie Brinkman, Doug Clark, Peggy Cole and Jose Trujillo to form a unified slate against John Ostermiller and Jim Taylor.

The group lay mostly quiet until 2012, when they lost their majority and Michael Penny, city manager, came on board. That’s when even Brinkman, who had emerged as a major anti-Walmart spokesperson, began touting the benefits of urban renewal.

Not long after that, Carol Brzeczek, a former school-board member very active with all three groups, publicly stated she no longer trusted city council.

Today, Cole and Jerry Valdes are the only two Sunshine-supported council members.

They supported John Watson’s failed bid in

2013 and initially offered some support for Randy Stein, which has waned. They didn’t produce a candidate to run against Mayor Phil Cernanec in District 3.

Talking points for their cause • Littleton is currently undergoing much development without urban renewal, including the King Soopers remodel, several apartment complexes and Littleton Village.

• Ballot Resolution 300 is not against urban renewal, it only allows citizens the right to vote on plans.

• Littleton taxpayers should have the right to vote on how the city develops and redevelops rather than seven unelected LIFT members.

• The 744 acres included in the plan areas do not rise to the level of true slum and blight.

Mineral Station has even been blighted, and deemed a menace to Littleton.

Talking points against their opponents’ cause • They don’t actually have a problem with 2A; CRD’s yard signs encourage people to vote for both ballot measures.

• Their real problem, they say, is that taxincrement financing encourages the development of projects that are not economically feasible and therefore risky.

• Littleton Strong is heavily supported by those who stand to profit, including real-estate brokers and out-of-state developers.

What they’re saying • “Why are so many real-estate developers who don’t live in the city poking their noses in our business?” asks Carol Brzeczek. “They wouldn’t be spending money if there wasn’t a pot of gold at the end of it for them. Being stuck in the past has nothing to do with it. It has to do with the right to vote. And if an election costs $34,000, that’s a drop in the bucket compared to our right to vote. … There are people who don’t want to use taxpayer dollars to do their projects, because they have a conscience.”

• “Urban renewal is about picking favorites. It’s about taking care of Sam over here, but Bob and George over there can go to hell,” said Paul Bingham. “We have a lot of young people moving in every day. We think our downtown attracts young people. And we’ve got a lot of development going on.”

A view from outside the fray

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Nicholas Recker, assistant professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver, offers a neutral perspective on the issue of urban renewal. He earned his doctorate from Iowa State University in 2009, and has written several research papers on social capital and community development.

Below are a couple of frequently asked questions and his responses.

Does urban renewal take money away from taxing entities like the school board, county and parks district?

Taxes are a source of revenue for local government, so abatements may carry opportunity costs such as less revenue. When offering these abatements, local government is certainly aware of this but is banking on the local economic or social boon to exceed the

or South Suburban Parks and Recreation. The LIFT board considered removing property owned by South Metro Housing Options, but SMHO asked to stay.

In order to qualify for urban renewal projects, an area needs to be declared “blighted” as defined by state statute. A blighted area is one that “substantially impairs or arrests the sound growth of the municipality, retards the provision of housing accommodations, or constitutes an economic or social liability, and is a menace to the public health, safety, morals, or welfare.”

It goes on to list 11 criteria to use as a basis for determining blight, of which the property must meet four. They include things like deterioration, unsafe or unsanitary conditions, environmental contamination and unusual topography. All four of the Littleton study areas met at least 10 criteria, according to Ricker.

Now that the plans are in place, develop-

taxes that would have been collected. This is particularly true if these businesses are locally owned and operated. Locally owned businesses tend to have stronger ties to the community and traditionally allow greater amounts of money to remain in the community.

Is urban renewal good for a local economy, or just too risky?

This is a tricky question. Urban renewal certainly presents opportunities for economic growth and development within communities. However, these gains must be compared to potential shifts in quality of life.

Issues such as increased congestion, displacing community residents and cost-of-living increases could affect residents’ quality of life. It is tricky to say if urban renewal is good or bad for a local economy as communities vary in their ultimate goals.

ers and property owners can go to LIFT with their proposals for specific projects. In the Columbine Square area, for example, it’s likely the owners of the now-empty shopping center will propose scraping it to build an apartment complex, a plan they pulled out of the city’s review process several months ago. If LIFT decides the project can’t happen without public money, the owner will be able to use it to fix the conditions that led to the site’s blight designation, like road improvements and environmental clean-up.

The city kick-started LIFT with a $200,000 loan from the general fund. Going forward, LIFT will sell bonds to fund the projects, which have to be repaid within 25 years. That’s how long the timeclock runs on an area plan.

If all goes well, LIFT will use its share of the increase in taxes, above and beyond what the average was before the improvements, to repay the bonds.

National group honors longtime coach Littleton mentor led girls, boys in swimming, diving

By Tom Munds

tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Another award is on its way to coach Maurice “Stringy” Ervin.

The National Federation of High School Coaches Association announced Jan. 23 that Ervin had been named 2014 National Coach of the Year for Girls Swimming and Diving.

“I am honored to receive this national honor,” Ervin said. “Like any award, it wasn’t just me. The honor should be shared with a lot of people, including the assistant coaches I worked with as well as the swimmers I coached. It was because of them that I was considered for the award.”

Ervin was one of 21 coaches of the year, 10 in boys sports, 10 in girls sports and one in spirit that was not in the 10 sports listed.

He was the only Colorado coach honored.

The association recognizes coaches at the state, sectional and national levels. This year, the association presented awards to 533 coaches.

Ervin began his coaching career in 1965 at what is now Skyview High School.

He was there for three years until 1968, when his alma mater invited him to return to Littleton High School as a teacher and coach.

“I was an assistant coach for basketball and football at Littleton. Then, since the school didn’t have a head swimming coach, I volunteered to take the position too,” he said. “I had never competed in swimming and I had never coached the sport so I had a lot to learn. I did a lot of research, read a lot of books and learned right along with my swimmers.”

He coached boys swimming for 40 years and coached girls swimming for about 30 years. He guided Lions teams to seven state boys swimming championships, including a string of five championships in a row from 1980 to 1984. Also, under his tutelage, five Littleton teams have won state girls swimming championships. The most recent win came in 2000.

The coach said never cut any boy or girl

Littleton High School girls swimming coach Maurice “Stringy” Ervin gives instructions to members of the girls swimming team during a December 2013 meet. File photo who came out for swimming on the team.

He said he wanted to make sure the team included anyone who wanted to be part it.

“Every team I ever coached and every kid on those teams were special,” Ervin said. “I have great memories about kids and teams I worked with over the years.”

The coach retired and hung up his whistle after the 2013-14 girls swim season.

“I miss coaching but it had to end sometime, and I figure that was the perfect time for me to retire,” he said. “I retired from coaching but I still have a lot going on to keep me busy.”

He said he was never a person to just sit around and do nothing.

“I am always working on my antique cars and we’ll be busy in the garden before long,” he said. “We also like to travel, and my wife and I plan on a trip to Puerto Rico

soon.”

He also said he will often be around Littleton High School as he will still be running the clock at the Lion football games and will often drop by the pool to watch swimming competitions.

Ervin said the national award has brought him a lot of calls and emails.

“A lot of people have congratulated me on receiving the award, and that is nice to hear that from folks like fellow coaches, kids I coached and their parents,” he said.

Everyone served at Cafe 180 Customers can pay for meal with cash or their time

By Tom Munds

tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Café 180 received an endorsement from a homeless man who said the staff provided lunch and treated him like he was a paying customer.

Fred Snyder, who said his home is where he happens to hang his hat, said he was asking people for money to get something to eat when a police officer told him about Café 180.

“I went to Café 180 and told them I was broke,” he said. “They said it didn’t matter and served me a really nice meal. They told me if I wanted to, I could come back as a volunteer in return for the meal. I am not a volunteering kind of guy, but I am considering volunteering there.”

Café 180 is located at the corner of Broadway and Floyd in Englewood, serving lunch from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. The café is different than most restaurants because there are no prices listed for the menu items. Paying customers are asked to pay what they feel the meal is worth, and those who can’t pay are asked to serve as volunteers in return for their meal.

On Feb. 4, the café was filled with the hum of conversation and the smell of the lunch choices.

Customer Melinda Percell said she stops in Café 180 for lunch whenever she is in the area.

“I love this place. I love the food and I love the fact they are providing food to people who might not be getting enough to eat,” she said. “I have always enjoyed having lunch here and I have never had any menu item I didn’t enjoy. It is a great organization and they are doing a great service to the community.”

In the kitchen, volunteer Richard McClung was filling orders for salads.

“I live in Lakewood, but I volunteer here because I like what the café is all about,” he said. “Everyone is smiling and it is a wel-

It also feels good to volunteer here because I know I am providing healthy, tasty food to people who normally wouldn’t have such a nice lunch.”

Suzanne Steinberg, café manager, said a friend brought her to Café 180 for the first time to have lunch, founder Cathy Matthews talked to her and two days later she was hired.

“We are blessed with people who volunteer to help us keep the café operating because we have huge community support, strong church support and support from other organizations,” she said. “We have six people on a shift and four of them are

food we serve but I also think people appreciate our mission to provide good, healthy meals to people who may not be eating regularly,” she said. “We try to create a welcoming atmosphere. This is a wonderful place and we love to have people come to have lunch with us whether or not they can pay for the meal.”

Sara Lesyinski, executive director, said all customers select the items they want for lunch from the café menu.

“We just ask those who can pay what they feel is appropriate for the meal and we also ask those who don’t have money to sign up to volunteer here at the restaurant in return for a meal,” she said. “But everyone who walks up to our counter is served a meal.”

The café opened its doors in August 2011. The basic menu has remained unchanged, offering pizza, wraps, salads and soup. The pizza and soup choices change daily.

“I have watched our popularity as a place to have lunch grow in the three years I have been here,” Lesyinski said. “I think we have an average of twice as many people join us for lunch now as we did when I started.”

Cafe 180 in Englewood is open for lunch Tuesday through Saturday. Customers are asked to pay for lunch if they can, but if they can’t, they are asked to volunteer at the restaurant in return for the meal.

volunteers.”

She said on an average day, 40 to 50 people will come in for lunch. On a busy day we could see 70 or more customers at our counter.

“Many people come in for the first time plus we have quite a few people who are frequent customers,” she said. “I would say the most popular items on our menu are our soups because we make two really good soups every day. Our salads are also popular as are our turkey spinach wraps.”

The project has expanded and now includes a catering division and a kiosk on the 16th Street Mall in downtown Denver.

“I helped start the catering division that now is located at the University of Colorado facility at Fort Logan,” said Steinberg, a Centennial resident. “We also have the outlet downtown. There are set meals and not choices like here at the café.”

She said the café has purchased three food carts that are expected to be put in place and doing business in the late spring and early summer.

Steinberg said she feels the café is becoming more popular as a spot to eat lunch.

O U R S

Needing a ‘sorry’ may hold you back Sometimes when we hold out for an apology we become trapped in the event or episode that caused a hurt in our lives instead of freeing ourselves from the burden of carrying it around with us forever.

We have all been hurt or disappointed at some point in our lives. And it has either been because of someone else, an event or situation, or something we have done to ourselves that brings on those feelings of hurt and maybe even anger.

As we approach Valentine’s Day we are reminded of love. We are encouraged to remember those we love the most through cards, candy, flowers, gifts, romantic dinners and affection. And I think one of the very best ways we can demonstrate love is through forgiveness. Even though there is that old saying about love means that we never have to say we are sorry, I believe that love and forgiveness are the best way to overcome the need for an apology.

Does it feel good when someone apologizes? For some it feels really good, and for others it is an uncomfortable moment, maybe even awkward. The apology may serve to ease the tension and stress that have been building and escalating over time and open up the doors of communication again. Then again, the apology could create a weird kind of “now what?” moment, leaving both parties wondering, “Where do we go from here?”

If love means never having to say you’re sorry, does that mean we just live our lives through the spirit of forgiveness? Unconditional forgiveness for those who have hurt us, events that have occurred, and ultimately and most importantly for ourselves for the mistakes, missteps, and choices we have made could trump the need for any apology.

I don’t know about you, maybe you are someone who really needs to hear the apology, I know I used to be that way too.

I used to use the words or phrases like, “I need an apology,” “I want an apology,” or “I expect an apology.” I am not sure what I was really looking to gain. I came to realize it was either one of two things; I either wanted to other person to show remorse and feel bad for what they had done, or I needed to feed my own ego by being the one who deserved and received the apology. Both were extremely unhealthy for me

as I never felt good with either outcome, as a matter of fact, sometimes I even felt worse.

Freedom is birthed through forgiveness as we learn to absolutely forgive others and ourselves at the very core of who we are.

There is nothing that anyone can do to me or that I can do to myself where I will allow that situation to hold me hostage from my happiness. Does this mean I will forget the event or circumstance? Absolutely not, but forgiving is very different than forgetting.

By not forgetting I can learn from the experience and make decisions about my future where I can potentially avoid the same kind of hurt. And by forgiving, completely and unconditionally forgiving, I am free to enjoy every other aspect of my life.

So for Valentine’s Day my hope is that you will all enjoy the flowers, candy, cards and romantic gestures and that your ultimate demonstration of love this year will be the spirit of true forgiveness.

How about you, are you enjoying the many benefits and freedom of forgiveness?

I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we allow forgiveness to trump apologies, it really will be a better than good week.

Something a little unsettling about applause Please hold your applause.

On the final day of the term at my alma mater, professors were applauded at the end of the lecture.

The enthusiasm in the applause, and the duration of it, were directly related to the appreciation the students wanted to express for the quality of the professor as an educator.

Sometimes there was polite applause and sometimes there were standing ovations.

One near-legendary philosophy professor invariably got a standing ovation. It went on and on.

Remembering that this morning made me wonder where applause, applauding and clapping come from. Why not some other expression of approval, like grunting?

I can answer the first part, but not the second part, although I have a pretty good idea. Applause, generally, is a pleasant sound.

Grunting admirers may have worked after Moog brought down a pterodactyl.

But it wouldn’t work after the Colorado

Symphony performed Mozart.

Like so many things, it all began with ancient Romans. They had a “set ritual” of applause for public performances, which expressed “degrees of approval.” It included waving the flap of the toga, which sounds like Groucho, Chico and Harpo.

There are countless variations, and applauding can be accompanied, with foot stomping, for example.

Applause can precede, interrupt, or follow an appearance or performance — or all three.

Robin Williams would be introduced on Letterman, and the applause was loud and

long.

Then he would say something unbelievably witty, and there would be more applause.

When his segment ended, there would be more of the same.

That wouldn’t go over so well in church.

Or in a classical music concert. You’re supposed to wait until the end of the entire work.

But if you haven’t been to a classical music concert before, you might not know that, and make a boob out of yourself.

Is applause ever annoying? Yes. It’s one of the reasons why I can’t watch the State of the Union address.

Someone always keeps score, and the number of times the President is interrupted with applause is in the papers the next day.

Half the time, the applause seems insincere. Perhaps because half of the audience is playing for the other team.

Slow clapping can mean two things. The

Columnists and Guest Commentaries

Time for feds to reimburse Colorado Coloradans, perhaps more than anyone else, appreciate the beauty and adventure of the great outdoors, the innovation and job creation that come with a $600 billion recreation economy, and the importance of preserving our national treasures. Nearly one-third of our state is federal land, and we have more national parks than 46 other states.

This year we are celebrating the 100th anniversary of one of those parks.

Whether you’re climbing Longs Peak, watching the elk during the fall rut, or just driving Trail Ridge Road, Rocky Mountain National Park offers some of the best hiking, scenery and wildlife viewing that Colorado has to offer. It’s no wonder almost 3 million people visited the park in 2013.

And Colorado’s national parks are serious business. In Colorado, more than 5 million people visited our parks spending more than $330 million and supporting nearly 5,000 jobs in 2013 alone. Nationwide, more than 273 million visitors spent about $14.6 billion in

the surrounding communities.

Unfortunately, the national park system was caught up in the dysfunction of Washington. When Congress shut down the federal government in 2013, the national parks closed along with almost everything else. More than 400 parks and monuments across the nation, employing more than 20,000 Americans, were forced to close their gates. Fortunately, six states — Arizona, New York, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah and our own home state — advanced the National Park Service $2 million to temporarily reopen iconic parks like Rocky Mountain National Park, the Grand Canyon, Mount Rushmore and the Statue of Liberty.

Slaying suspect will stand trial $2 million bail set for man jailed since August

By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Joshua Hoppe will stand trial in the shooting death of James Barnes, after Arapahoe County Court Judge Michelle Amico ruled on Feb. 3 that there is enough evidence to proceed. The judge set bail at $2 million.

Hoppe, 32, has been in jail without bond since being arrested on Aug. 19 of last year, charged with first-degree murder and possessing a dangerous weapon. Amico set the bail reluctantly, saying there was some evidence that it had been self-defense.

“There was clearly animosity or a storm brewing between Mr. Barnes and Mr. Hoppe at the time this shooting took place,” she said.

“This was a difficult decision for the court,

but I think ultimately the right one.”

The defense had asked for bail to be set at $50,000, but Amico noted a number of reasons she felt that was inadequate. Hoppe was unemployed and homeless at the time of his arrest. He has three prior felony convictions, two for drugs and one for forgery, and missed court dates in all of them. The same is true for his three prior misdemeanors on drugs and weapons charges. There was also a request pending to revoke his probation on the last conviction at the time the shooting occurred.

“That is nothing short of a deadly combination on the streets of our community,” said Amico.

The incident took place at the home of Don and Maria Schenkeir on West Peakview Avenue in Littleton on Aug. 13. Police say Hoppe and the Schenkeirs’ daughter, Donella, had an on-again, off-again romance for several years. After the most recent breakup, Barnes rented a room in the Schenkeirs’ basement.

Testimony in the preliminary hearing showed Hoppe was none too happy with the situation, and a series of texts between the two men clearly shows there was animosity between them, said the judge.

“I hear you run the show over there,” reads one text Hoppe sent on Aug. 12, the day before the shooting.

“You think you can have my life. Don’t you know you’re not crazy, you’re just stupid.”

Don Schenkeir told police that he and his wife Hoppe were afraid of Barnes and had been trying to evict him.

Their son, Don Schenkeir Jr., alleged in a text message to Hoppe that Barnes had gotten his sister “back on the needle.”

The texts continue over the hours that led up to the shooting, with Hoppe appearing to repeatedly tell Barnes, 55, to move out of the house or it would be his “final decision.” At

one point, Barnes seems to tell Hoppe to beware the “hunter becoming the hunted.”

At 7:35 p.m., as Hoppe was sitting in a van outside the home, he sent a text that said “Get the (expletive) out or leave another way, but No. 2 is not a very good choice.” Then, just nine minutes before police were dispatched at 8:07 p.m., Hoppe sent a final text: “Come on out, (expletive).”

Most of the witnesses interviewed by police agree about what happened next. The Schenkeirs said Barnes and their daughter came out of the house, he with a machete and either a chain or a knife, and she with a double-edged blade. Hoppe emerged from the van, and the two sides began to approach each other. There was a popping noise, Barnes fell onto his back, and Hoppe took off on foot toward the Options campus on Acoma Street. Barnes was taken to Littleton Adventist Hospital, where he died later that night.

Hoppe’s next court date is March 18.

House Dems vote down proposed gun laws Parties divided over legislation

By Amy Woodward

awoodward @coloradocommunitymedia.com There was a fervor for gun legislation at the State Capitol last week with seven proposed measures going through House and Senate committees.

Republicans and Democrats dished out party-line votes that left both groups at an impasse on many of those bills.

Five gun bills that concern permits, background checks and private firearm transfers were some of the measures heard in the House State, Veterans and Military Affairs commit-

tee. The measures predictably failed while the Senate Judiciary committee Report passed two gun measures with a Republican majority vote, 3-2.

A House bill proposed by Rep. Janak Joshi, R-Colorado Springs, which repeals the state’s requirement for criminal background checks prior to a private gun transfer, garnered a duplicate measure in the Senate. With the House version failing, the Senate bill is expected to die as well, once it reaches the Democratic controlled House.

Attempts by Republicans to reverse con-

Capitol

tentious gun laws was anticipated for this year’s legislative session, but some lawmakers were left scratching their heads at bills that have received past bipartisan support.

One of the Senate bills heard in committee last week aimed to lift restrictions on the carrying of a concealed handgun by getting rid of the permit requirement which was passed into law in 2003. The bill would not change existing prohibitions from carrying concealed guns in certain public places such as school grounds.

Sen. Michael Merrifield, D-Colorado Springs, who sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee inquired about the changes to the 2003 law he helped to establish.

“It was a bipartisan bill,” Merrifield said.

“I’m curious as to what’s wrong with what we

did 14 years ago … what’s broken?”

Proponents for the bill argued that the state’s mandatory criminal background check for gun purchases should be all that is needed to carry a concealed handgun.

“This bill really doesn’t change anything except decriminalize the right to carry a concealed without a permit,” said Dudley Brown, executive director of the Rocky Mountain Gun Owners and president of the National Association for Gun Rights.

The measure passed the Senate 3-2 and moved to appropriations.

But if last week’s division is any indicator, the bill will not travel very far before it is voted down in the House.

Help hire a new superintendnent Staff report The Littleton Public Schools Board of Education would like volunteers to help interview finalists for the superintendent position on March 14.

Superintendent Scott Murphy announced in October he will retire effective June 15, after 25 years with the district.

After 16 days, Congress managed to end the manufactured crisis. However, the states that stepped up to foot the bill were never repaid. That’s why we are teaming up with Republican senators including Cory Gardner, Jeff Flake, John McCain, Lamar Alexander and others to sponsor the National Park Access Act. This bipartisan bill will ensure that states are reimbursed for the funds they spent to temporarily reopen national parks during the shutdown.

For Colorado, the shutdown couldn’t have come at worse time. It fell during

sory capacity to the board.

Interested residents of the school district can apply at www.littletonpublicschools.net by Feb. 20. They must be able to attend a two-hour training session on March 12 and a full day of interviews on March 14.

Last fall, the Colorado Association of School Boards held a forum on what qualities a new superintendent needs.

Everyone in the room agreed the new superintendent will have a lot on his or her plate. They hope the person will be forceful enough to advocate for local interests against state and federal mandates, but patient enough to listen to the

community. They expect someone who will stick around for the long haul with a long-term vision, not just someone to play a transitional role. Above all, they want someone who values transparency and demands it across the district.

What’s expected to be two to three finalists should be announced on Feb. 26.

The public will be welcome to observe the finalist interviews, but no questions or comments will be allowed.

The school board alone makes the final decision and expects to announce it by March 19.

I have been, and it always makes me a little uncomfortable. For others, it would be uncomfortable if there were no applause.

I took a few classes with dud professors, and I almost cringed when the time came to give our approval rating.

The sound of one hand clapping.

One of the most interesting after effects of sustained applause is the encore. I have been to concerts — Fleetwood Mac in Phoenix — that have had three or four encores.

You needed hand lotion afterwards.

I can tell you right now that this column is not going to get a standing

ovation. It’s informative, but there is very little amusement in it, or unusual insights.

But for once, there is no sarcasm, no facetiousness, no borderline nonsense.

However, I am not above pandering.

Don’t we live in the greatest state in the country? You bet we do. The purplish mountains and the sunny sunshine, not to mention the babbling Platte.

It really is heaven on earth.

one of Rocky Mountain National Park’s peak seasons, as visitors flocked to see the changing aspen leaves. Worse, communities like Estes Park, which rely on the tourism, were still reeling from devastating flooding. While Congress was wasting time in endless debates, Coloradans were dealing with an unprecedented natural disaster. An entire year of rain fell in one day, damaging more than 18,000 homes, forcing tens of thousands of Coloradans to evacuate, and tragically killing 10 people.

The revenue generated by the visitors to the legendary park was crucial in helping Estes Park rebuild following the catastrophic destruction. Thankfully, Colorado intervened to keep the gates open when Congress couldn’t get their

act together to pass a funding bill for the year.

From the Great Sand Dunes to Mesa Verde to Rocky Mountain, our national parks are not only one of the most valuable legacies we can pass on to the next generation, but are also key economic drivers for towns and cities throughout Colorado and the nation. Thankfully in a time of crisis, our state took the necessary steps to keep the park gates open and support recovering communities.

It’s about time that the federal government kept its promise and reimbursed Colorado and other states, and our bill will make certain that happens.

LICENSED TO DRIVE? A vendor must go through the proper channels to operate a food truck in the south metro area.

Continued from Page 1

“I wanted to take a staple element, like guacamole, and elevate it,” he said on a recent Thursday, his food truck parked at 38 State Brewing Co. in Littleton.

In recent years, food trucks like Silva’s have been popping up with greater frequency in the south metro Denver area at breweries, special events and other venues. It’s part of a national trend.

A 2012 study by Emergent Research projects the food truck industry in the United States to generate about $2.7 billion in annual revenue by 2017. That’s a fourfold increase over 2012 sales.

“From a marketing perspective, the concept of a food truck is kind of brilliant,” said Andrea LaRew, president of the Highlands Ranch Chamber of Commerce. “It allows you to get in front of lots of people who are potential customers.”

And for those customers, food trucks offer an easy way to experience some of their favorite cuisine.

Denver’s Rick Benge joined friends Larry Franklin, of Denver, and Randall Holt, of Littleton, on the patio at 38 State the afternoon of Feb. 7. They enjoyed craft beer and raved about the fare from Brooks Smokehouse, the food truck stationed just a few yards away.

The convenience factor is the single most

The Tri-County Health Department serves Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties. On its website, it says a food truck vendor who is licensed in Denver would have to get a different license to operate in the Tri-County area.

“Your Denver license is valid only in the City and County of Denver. To sell in Tri-County, you must obtain a State of Colorado Retail Food Establishment License, which authorizes you to sell anywhere in Colorado except the City and County of Denver.”

“But it’s good quality. I think it’s better than the fast-food chains.”

The evolution

While food trucks are heading into new territory, mobile meal vending is hardly a new concept.

In 1866, Charles Goodnight devised a mobile kitchen to be part of a wagon train to feed the pioneers of Western expansion.

The 1900s brought field kitchens for American soldiers, Oscar Mayer’s Wiener Mobile — the first hot dog cart — ice cream trucks, taco stands and kebab vans.

The food truck craze was in motion.

By 2008, the Kogi Korean BBQ food truck began tweeting its location to serve its Kore-

Striving for Moe better barbecue Moe’s Original Bar B Que in Englewood serves unique Southern soul food, said the Mobile BBQ Pit’s owner Jay Grantham, and it’s all made from scratch. The food truck only caters to large private or public events.

“Everything we do has to be guaranteed money before we even move the truck,” Grantham said.

This is because the meats they serve are cooked for up to 20 hours. The truck has special equipment for temperature regulation, so everything is prepared at

the restaurant and loaded onto the truck for the event, he said.

It’s very sought after, he added, and the food truck stays booked.

Wayne Forst is a regular patron of Moe’s Original BBQ because they serve “delicious barbecue.”

“I choose Moe’s because I know I enjoy their food. Their pulled pork is excellent,” he said. “(And) their prices are reasonable.”

And in June 2014, the National Food Truck Association was formed.

“Mobile vending has seen a monumental shift in the past five years,” says the organization’s website, www.nationalfoodtrucks.org.

“What was an underground and unseen industry has become one of the fastest growing trends in food service.”

The next generation

Today’s food trucks feature new and creative twists. And they are a fun way to serve good food, said Jack Doyle, owner of BTO Frozen Yogurt in Highlands Ranch.

“It’s about as close to your customers as you can get,” he said.

Doyle’s YoMobile — a mini version of the store on wheels — was at about 100 public events last summer, including weddings and fundraisers, school, corporate, sporting and community events.

People love having food trucks at large community events, said Cindy Shoemaker, the Highlands Ranch Community Association’s events coordinator. The organization’s annual events can attract thousands of people, she said, so it’s great to be able to offer guests a variety of specialty food options.

“They’re not the main draw to the events, but a great complement to them,” Shoemaker said.

Food trucks provide an atmosphere of ex-

A perfect pairing Food trucks partnering with breweries — and in the south metro area, this pairing can be found at several establishments — benefits everybody, said Jason Stockmyer, marketing and service manager for 38 State.

It is a good thing for the brewery’s patrons not to drink on an empty stomach, he said, so the establishment features a different food truck every Wednesday through Saturday.

In fact, 38 State never wanted to have a kitchen, Stockmyer said. It is a dog-friendly establishment, which means health codes would not permit it to have a kitchen, he said, plus there is less overhead cost by not having the additional staff.

“We’re about the brew, and there’s not a shortage of food trucks,” Stockmyer said.

Vendors with food trucks generally have a specialization, Doyle said, so they are able to offer food that people can’t get anywhere else.

“They pick one thing they’re good at,” he said, “and they’re really, really good at it.”

Vendors with food trucks are a fun group of people, Doyle said. They have to have a passion for food, yet they also have to love people.

“When you have a get-together at your home, it is common that everybody gathers around the kitchen. So, we bring the kitchen to you,” Galves said. “We like bringing food to the public. We get to participate in, or create, the party instead of waiting for the party to come to us.”

NEWS IN A HURRY Mardi Gras in Littleton

Autobiography of Edwin Bemis available

Visit downtown Littleton Feb. 13 and Feb. 14 to celebrate Mardi Gras.

Area restaurants will be serving special menus with a Cajun flair. There will also be live music and a “bead bar” where you can purchase personal Mardi Gras decor. Participating merchants include: D’s Tavern, Ned Kelly’s Irish Pub, The Tavern Littleton, Olde Towne Tavern, Reinke Bros., Platte River Bar & Grill, McKinner’s Pizza Bar, Romano’s Italian Restaurant and In-Tea.

The 1956 autobiography of Edwin A. Bemis, “So I Took an Apple,” is now available online for viewing and downloading. Only a few copies of the book were printed, and the online copy will make this account of one of Littleton’s most accomplished citizens accessible to the public. The book includes many stories about early Littleton and local personalities.

Bemis was Littleton’s town treasurer and the youngest one in Colorado. He organized the Arapahoe County Fair Association, and was chief of the fire department and deputy sheriff. He and his sister opened the town’s first camera and book shop. Photography became one of his hobbies, and in the years to come he collected Littleton history through the eye of his camera. A number of photos are included in his autobiography.

Bemis also had a distinguished career in journalism. He was the owner of the Littleton Independent and also the president of the Colorado Press Association. The Bemis Public Library, which celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2015, was named in his honor. The digital book is accessible on the City of Littleton’s website, www.littletongov.org.

citement, said Larry Galves, operations manager for Manna from Heaven Gourmet Food Truck & Catering, which serves the Denver area.

“This is especially true when multiple trucks are parked together, creating a mobile food court,” he said.

Doyle takes prides that the YoMobile offers a condensed, but the same, service as his frozen yogurt shop. But some vendors prefer to have just their food truck or just their brickand-mortar restaurant, he said.

“There’s lots of restaurant (owners) that get into the food truck business,” Doyle said, “and vice versa.”

Arapahoe Community College will host its Spring 2015 College Transfer Fair on Feb. 24, from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. in the multipurpose room. This event is free and open to the public.

Meet with admissions advisers from local and national four-year schools to gather information about transfer options. Lunch will be provided, and attendees will have the opportunity to meet with ACC alumni who have transferred successfully.

For more information, contact the ACC Career and Transfer Center at careers@arapahoe.edu or 303-797-5805.

Bowling alley gets ready to change lanes

“Today’s Special” by Teraoka, a woodcut, is new at the Denver Art Museum. Courtesy photos

Bang-up year for museum Many gifts were received through successful 2014

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com As the Denver Art Museum begins a new year, it has issued a report on important acquisitions in the past year — most of them gifts.

• The largest gift ever given to the museum leads the list. On Jan. 13, 2014, the announcement was made that Denver philanthropist Frederic C. Hamilton, the museum’s chairman emeritus for whom the new building is named, made a bequest of 22 impressionist masterworks from his own collection.

Included: Van Gogh’s “Edge of a Wheat Field with Poppies,” the first Van Gogh in the collection. There are also four works by Monet, three paintings by Boudin — also a first in the DAM collection — and one by Cezanne — another first. Works by Manet, Moriset, Pissaro, Renoir, Sisley, Chase and Hassam are included.

• The Architecture, Design and Graphics Department acquired furniture by British designer Faye Toogood — the first museum to acquire her work. It also was given floor tiles and flatware by Gio Ponti, who designed the North Building.

• The Asian Art Department acquired three Japanese woodblock prints, including “Today’s Special” by Masami Teraoka. Curator Ronald Otsuka retired at the end of 2013 and this print was in his final exhibition: “At the Mirror: Reflections of Japan in 20th Century Prints.” Other Asian artworks were acquired or given in his honor.

• The Modern and Contemporary Art Department received “A Beautiful Fall” by Joseph Stashkevetch and “White Rose” by Agnes Martin, which will be exhibited in May in “Showing Off: Recent Contemporary Acquisitions.”

• The Native Arts Department added to all three collecting areas: American Indian, Africa and Oceania, including 25 katsina figures, four Micmac quilled boxes, 12 contemporary ceramic works and seven west African textiles.

Elitch Lanes owner Cal Eichinger is striking out to Arvada after the original bowling alley on Tennyson Street closes on May 17.

When I spoke to Eichinger about the popular bowling spot’s closing after losing its lease, he told me that he was zoning in on a new location (sadly) outside of Denver’s city limits.

“We’re going to take a bunch of our equipment, paint the inside just like Elitch Lanes,” Eichinger told Westword. “We’re going to make it feel as much like Elitch Lanes as we can and operate it with our philosophy — which is F.U.N. We don’t take it seriously.”

The new Elitch Lanes will open at 10000 Ralston Road in Arvada, in the former Western Bowl. Eichinger — who has been in the bowling business for 40 years and has spent well over a decade as Elitch Lanes’ owner — says his new place is going to look and feel just like the old spot. “Most bowling centers still have some core business, based on traditional league bowlers that take bowling too seriously,” Eichinger said. “They treat it like a ‘win at all costs’ game and it’s like, really? We’re all amateurs. We like fun.”

To honor the good times at the old location, Elitch Lanes will be having a weekend blowout celebration before its May 18 opening in the new spot.

The original Elitch Lanes at 3825 Tennyson St. is open through May 17. The closing celebration will be from May 15 through May 17 with a $40 per person rate for all you can eat, drink and bowl from 6 to 9 p.m. or 9 p.m. to midnight daily. The new Elitch Lanes at 10000 Ralston Road in Arvada will open for business May 18. For more information, visit www.elitchbowling.com or call 303-477-1633.

Viewhouse’s ‘Anti-Valentine’s Day’

Edge of a Wheat Field With Poppies” is the Denver Art Museum collection’s first painting by Vincent Van Gogh.

• The New World Department received gifts of Spanish Colonial art, including three feather mosaics and an enconchado painting, with inlaid mother of pearl.

• The Painting and Sculpture Department acquired “Jared” from Daniel Sprick’s “Fiction: Recent Works.”

• The Petrie Institute of Western American Art was given several paintings from the Taos

School of Art and acquired additional ones from the Peck collection.

• The Photography Department was given 10 photographs from Neil Winokur’s “Self Portrait” series in a style derived from his mentor, Andy Warhol.

• The Textile Department received a family heirloom “Princess Feather” quilt, Japanese embroidery and an American tapestry.

Not feeling the love? ViewHouse, at 2015 Market St. (www.viewhouse.com), is hosting an “Anti-Valentine’s Day” party, which involves hunting, gathering, drinking and dancing on Feb. 14.

The evening kicks off with a scavenger hunt in the venue spanning all floors and including the rooftop patio area. Your prey? Single ViewHouse staffers. The first contestants to return with completed game cards will receive a spot at the VIP table for the Matt Nathanson concert the following day at ViewHouse. DJ spinning starts at 9 p.m., with prize giveaways all night. No romance allowed.

If you’re headed south of downtown, ViewHouse Centennial (7101 S. Clinton St., Centennial — www.viewhouse.com) is throwing a singles-only evening including an old-school Lock & Key Singles Party, kicking off at 10 p.m. Guys get locks, gals get keys, and everyone spends a fun night taking in tunes, sipping Strawberry Stilettos (Grey Goose vodka, fresh strawberry, triple sec, fresh oranges, simple syrup and cranberry) and trying to find the magic combination. Found your match? You’ll be entered into a raffle to win a gift card for a return date night at ViewHouse.

Town Hall exhibits four artists’ work Littleton show is good fit with theme of play

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com

With the musical “Next to Normal,” about a family struggling to stay focused, running on stage, “The Art of Focus” would seem an appropriate title for a related art show.

The exhibit runs through March 25 at the Stanton Gallery in Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center. Artists Jean Caggiano, Ugljesa Janjic, Sherry Sherman and Jam Wong exhibit their work at Town Hall, with a public meetthe-artists reception planned for Feb. 20 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Caggiano, a Colorado resident for more than 25 years, worked with color and composition as a graphic artist and has studied painting and color theory at the Art Students League of Denver.

Buntport offers its take on Colorado history ‘Yesterado’ is treat for schoolchildren

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com The always-imaginative Buntport Theater members have an education division, as

well as the basic playwriting/producing core members. Actors take fine-tuned productions about history, mythology and language out into the community for schoolchildren.

“Yesterado,” a Buntport take on Colorado history, will be presented at 10 a.m. Feb. 23 to 26 at Lone Tree Arts Center, 10075 Commons St., Lone Tree.

Buntport writers combed through pulp newspapers from the 1890s for interesting characters and gossipy tales.

Charming Jack “Father of Colorado Theater” Langrishe and tightrope walker Marietta Ravel, performers who destroy con man Soapy Smith’s scam, usher children through their unique version of Colorado History.

Margaret “Molly” Brown had a rocky trip from the Colorado mines into Denver’s social scene, where she was snubbed by the “sacred 36” and campaigned for women’s rights.

Denver cyclist Dora Roberts, who set national bicycling records in the 1890s, fueled

a controversy over whether women should wear pants.

Two Longmont folks had a front page faceoff over who had rights to do what in the new state of Colorado.

Westward migration, different cultures and a start-up government will be addressed in this 55-minute production, suitable for grades K-6.

Here’s what Food Network said: “Denver may be better known for snow bunnies than snow peas, but Chef Lon Symensma (who cut his teeth at Buddakan, Spice Market and Jean Georges Shanghai) is making a name for himself at his modern upscale bistro in the lively LoDo district, where he presents wildly creative Southeast Asianinspired dishes such as bacon ‘thrice fried rice’ carbonara. He’s also managed to turn the traditional Asian soup dumpling on its head. Inspired by the classic French onion soup, Symensma fills his dumplings with sweet caramelized onions, melted Gruyere cheese and a sherry-infused broth that bursts when you bite into them.”

Not to take anything away from ChoLon’s delightful dumplings, but also try TAG restaurant’s take on the French onion soup dumpling and let me know which dumpling does it for you.

Eagle swimmers win league titles The Heritage team amasses points to take third in team standings

By Tom Munds

tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com League and pool records fell during the Feb. 7 Continental League swimming meet finals at Heritage High School.

Eagle swimmers won three events and amassed points by placing high in other competitions as Heritage finished third in the final team standings behind league champ Regis and runner-up Rock Canyon.

The day was devoted to league water sports. Earlier, the league diving championships were held at Littleton High School.

Regis took the top three spots in the finals.

Swimming meets are individual and team competitions at the same time. A swimmer is awarded team points according to where she finishes in an event.

At the Continental League meet, the times posted in the Feb. 5 preliminaries determined placement in the Feb. 6 finals.

There are eight individual events and three relays in a swim meet. At the league meet, individual meet competition was held in the A, B and C finals with A and B finals for relays.

League scoring awarded 27 team points for the first-place finisher in the A finals with lesser points for each finisher to one Swim continues on Page 18

Warriors lose hoops battle Mullen shoots accurately, outscores Arapahoe 64-44

By Tom Munds

tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com

Arapahoe defender Max Whitehead refuses to give ground to a Mullen player during the Feb. 4 league basketball game. Whitehead played tough defense the whole game, but Mullen’s shooting accuracy was the difference as the Mustangs won, 64-44. Photo by Tom Munds

Arapahoe couldn’t find the range, but Mullen was on target as the Mustangs bested the Warriors 64-44 in league boys basketball action Feb. 4.

“We are a young team, but honestly, we weren’t ready to go tonight and you can’t win if you do that against a good team that plays hard the way Mullen plays,” Arapahoe Coach Brad Jensen said after the game “We had three games in a row we felt very good about the way we played. That wasn’t the case tonight because we just didn’t play well.”

After the Feb. 4 game, Arapahoe is 6-12

overall and 1-8 in league. The Warriors had a home game Feb. 11 against Overland and are at home Feb. 13 against Smoky Hill before going on the road to Cherry Creek on Feb 18.

The Feb. 4 game was a battle from the open tipoff. Both teams shot well early, and a buzzer-beating basket helped put Mullen up 13-9 at the end of the first period.

Both teams played a fast-pace style and Mullen’s accuracy from outside combined with successful drives to the hoop helped the Mustangs build on their advantage as they led 28-16 at halftime and 43-29 at the end of the third period.

Fouls called on Arapahoe frequently put Mustang players at the free throw line late in the third period and all of the fourth period. Throughout the game, Mullen hit just about 18 of 22 charity shots to add to points scored from the field to win, 64-44.

“One problem was we didn’t shoot very well,” Jansen said. “We shot 18 percent from 3-point range plus 34 percent from twopoint range. We came here tonight and laid an egg. We need to learn from tonight and move forward.”

In the final game statistics, Ryan King had 10 points, Trevor Johnson had eight points and sophomore Ben Timmons was the Warrior scoring leader with 18 points.

He also led the team in rebounds with seven.

“It was a lot of banging under the basket but that is part of the game and I try to play through it,” he said after the game. “I am on the post so a lot of my shots are inside. But

I am working on my outside shot a little bit because I want to add that to my arsenal and spread the defense.”

He said basketball is his sport and he doesn’t play any other sport in high school.

He also said he plays with club teams the remainder of the year.

“Rebounding is important, and I am working to do a better job on the boards,” he said. “I didn’t rebound very well tonight, particularly on the defensive end.”

The coach said Timmons was sitting on the end of the bench until four games ago.

“The coach put me in with the varsity, and I got to play with the varsity quite a bit three games ago. Now, I have been a starter in our last two games,” he said. “Moving up to varsity is a big step. I want to do what I can to help our team. My only personal goal is that I want to letter in basketball this season.”

Arapahoe center Ben Timmons goes up for an offensive rebound during the Feb. 4 game againt Mullen.

Timmons led the Warriors in scoring with 18 points and rebounds with seven. Mullen won, 64-44.

point for the sixth-place finisher in the C finals.

Heritage amassed 417 points by placing swimmers in every event. The two best individual finishes was a first in the 200 freestyle as freshman Kylie Andrews’ time of 1:52. 42 and the first in the 200 individual medley by Katherine Harston in a time of 2:11.04.

Harston and Andrews also helped the team point total as they teamed up with Maddie McGuire and Emma Spots to win the 200 freestyle relay.

Before the start of the meet, Heritage coach Tom Byorick said league is the biggest meet of the season so far with next week’s state meet is even bigger because it wraps up the season.

“We have about 60 girls on the team this season,” he said. “We are a pretty balanced team as far as class standing. We have had

strong senior leadership all season, our juniors and sophomores are swimming well plus the team has been strengthened by a strong group of freshman swimmers.”

Heritage has 10 individual qualifiers and three relay teams qualified for state. Several swimmers who are on the cusp of qualifying and hope to push themselves in the league meet to advance to state, he said.

Swimming uses a different system to determine state qualifiers. The state established two qualifying times for each event, one for pools with lanes measured in meters and one for pools measured in yards.

The league meet was the final opportunity for those who were close to add their names to the state qualifier lists and it was the final meet of the year for those who didn’t reach the qualifying standards.

However, those individuals and relay teams equaling or surpassing state-established qualifying standards move on to next week’s state championships. The 4A state meet will be held in Thornton Feb. 13 and 14 while the Class 5A state championships will be held at EPIC in Fort Collins.

FOR THE WEEK OF FEB. 9, 2015

GALLERY OF GAMES

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Your natural Arian leadership qualities make you the person others will follow in tackling that important project. But don’t get so involved in the work that you neglect your personal life.

TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Aspects favor sorting through your possessions, both at work and at home, to start giving away what you don’t use, don’t need or don’t like. Relax later with someone special.

& weekly horoscope

GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) The issues are not quite as clear as they should be. That’s why you need to avoid getting involved in disputes between colleagues at work or between relatives or personal friends.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) You’ll get lots of support from others if you own up to your mistake quickly and include a full and honest explanation. Learn from this experience so that you don’t repeat it.

LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) There might be some early confusion over a major move, whether it’s at work or at home. But once you get a full breakdown of what it entails, it should be easier to deal with. Good luck.

VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Creating order out of chaos, even in the most untidy spaces, should be no problem for organized Virgos. So go ahead and do it, and then accept praise from impressed colleagues.

LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Whether it’s for business purposes or just for leisure, a trip might be just what you need right now. You would benefit both from a change of scenery and from meeting new people.

SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) While things generally go well this week, a romantic situation seems to have stalled. But you can restart it if you want to. Then again, maybe this is a chance to reassess the situation.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) A meeting that was promised quite a while back could finally happen.

So be sure you’re prepared with everything you’ll need to make your case sound convincing and doable.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) A workplace blunder could create a problem down the line unless you deal with it right now to see how and why it happened.

Don’t be surprised at what you might learn.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) This is a good time to re-sort your priorities and see if adjustments are called for. Be honest with yourself as you decide what to keep, what to discard and what to change.

PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Letting yourself be bathed in the outpouring of love and support from those who care for you will help you get through a difficult period sooner rather than later. Good luck.

Eagles fall to Grizzlies on the mats Young wrestling teams face off in final regular season match

By Tom Munds tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com It was a hot time on the mat Feb. 5 when the Heritage and ThunderRidge wrestling teams squared off in dual match competition.

Both wrestling teams are young and evenly matched in the eight weight division matches settled on the mat.

The final team score was one-sided on the scoreboard as the Grizzlies officially won the match 56-21 because 30 of the Grizzlies points were from forfeits. But the ThunderRidge margin of victory was 26-21 based the scores from the eight matches decided on the mat.

Both coaches approved of the way their wrestlers performed in the dual match.

“I saw some good things from our wrestlers tonight. We are a young team, and this is a good to end our regular season on an up note,” ThunderRidge Coach Casey Paul said after the match. “Oh, we saw area that

Eagles cheerleaders look on as Heritage 106-pounder Brandon Urroz works to turn Zac Gross of ThunderRidge on his back. Urroz eventually got the upper hand and pinned his opponent.

Cole VanVleet, Heritage 120-pounder, works to put his opponent’s shoulders to the mat during the Feb. 5 battle with ThunderRidge’s Michael Young. Van Vleet eventually pinned his opponent in the second period. Photos by Tom Munds needs work and we’ll get after those areas in practice.”

Heritage Coach Joe Swanson had similar comments.

“I was happy with what I saw on the mat,” he said. “We had one senior and one junior on the roster tonight because we have some guys sidelined, but our young guys did pretty well. I am trying to build a new wrestling culture here at Heritage. To do that I am asking each wrestler to look at each match and ask what he can do to get better.”

The regular season is over and both teams head to the Feb. 14 regionals, which determines the wrestlers advancing to the state tournament. ThunderRidge will be at the Region 2 tournament at Smoky Hill while Heritage is on the road at the Regional 4 tournament at Doherty High School in Colorado Springs.

On Feb. 5, ThunderRidge began the match with a 30-0 lead because Heritage did not field wrestlers at five weight divisions.

The action on the mat began with the bout at 132 pounds, and Heritage got off to a good start with Zack Arbuckle posting a 17-10 decision and teammate Alejandro Gandara pinning his 138-pound opponent.

Josh Duckworth got the first on-the-mat victory for ThunderRidge with a 3-1 overtime win at 160 points and Zeke Johnson posted a major decision at 170 pounds.

Grizzlies 220 pounder Jonah Holden kept the mat bout winning streak going as he pinned his opponent.

Brandon Urroz got the win for Heritage at 106 pounds by pinning his opponent and 113-pounder Nate Perry added to the Grizzlies point total by pinning his opponent.

Heritage 120 pounder Cole VanVleet won by pinning his opponent and Grizzlies David Opheim wrestled the final bout of the night as he posted a pin at 126 pounds.

ThunderRidge Zeke Johnson got the win at 18-2 but said it wasn’t a particularly good match for him.

“I was a little sloppy in my moves but I will work to do better the next time I am

on the mat,” the sophomore said after the match. “I was confident going into the match and worked my techniques. I am good on my feet, but I like to take guys down and scored points doing that tonight.

As a sophomore, tonight’s match was a good way to end the regular season.”

Zack Arbuckle did the things on the mat he works on every day in the Heritage practice room as he won the match at 132 pounds, 17-10.

“My coach was talking to me just now, and he said I was slow at the start of the match,” the sophomore said. “I did start slowly. Then, I just pretended we were in the practice room and that sort of lit a fire in me so I really got going.”

He is continuing a wrestling tradition.

“Last year was my first year wrestling, and I joined the team because my dad and my uncle was a wrestler and I want to follow their example,” he said. “I like wrestling, and I expect I’ll stick with it. I also am thinking about playing baseball this year too.”
