Craft Show features treasures Great events in Brighton coming up

Crafters show talents with great gift ideas, homemade goodies

By Lou Ellen Bromley

The Adams County Historical Society’s Craft show was held at the Adams County Fairgrounds Saturday, giving local crafter’s an opportunity to show off their talents.

The October craft show, under new management, is one of four held every year as the Adams County Historical Society’s major fund raisers.

There will be two more this year, the next one will be the first weekend in November, then another on the first weekend in December. The spring craft show will be this coming April.

The crafts ranged from handmade items, like scarfs, table runners, potholders, doll clothes, baby blankets, candles, jellies and jams, and Christmas items to handcrafted items like carved walking sticks, jewelry, art work, framed photographs and Toll painted items and signs.

Crafter, Connie Gray has been participating in the craft show for 21 years and has one of the longest established booths at the craft show.

Connie does tole painting and had several items for Halloween and Christmas on display. She said she has earned the same spot for her booth every show because she has participated in the craft show for so long.

Wayne Kruschke, creator of Grimm Styx, had a large display of handcarved walking sticks and staffs for sale at Saturday’s show.

Kruschke started carving his walking sticks as a hobby in 1973.

He would give his creations away to friends and family as gifts, but despite giving them away, he eventually had a huge number of carved walking sticks. Wayne decided to start taking his creations to craft shows two years ago. No two are alike.

ADCO candidates face off Forum an opportunity to highlight experience, goals

By Tammy Kranz

tkranz@coloradocommunitymedia.com Adams County assessor candidate John Schaul took exception to being called “handpicked” by his opponent Patsy Melonakis during a forum held last week.

Candidates for assessor, sheriff, treasurer, clerk and recorder, coroner, and board of county commissioners participated in a Candidates Meeting Sept. 30 hosted by the League of Women Voters of Adams County at Skyview Campus in Thornton.

The candidates had a couple minutes to tell the audience about themselves then they were asked questions by the audience. For the assessor candidates, one audience member questioned why Melonakis referred to Schaul as current Assessor Gil Reyes’ “hand-picked deputy” in her campaign leaflets.

Melonakis answered because Reyes chose Schaul to be the deputy assessor.

Schaul called that label a stretch and said he was asked to be the deputy in 2010 because Reyes had health and family issues.

“I was not handpicked,” he said. “I was there prior than most of the staff.”

October 9, 2014

Man hits road of life with hands off wheel The call for prayer from the nearby mosque woke him from a restless sleep about 4 that morning.

He showered, dressed and checked his backpack. Water containers. Iodine tablets. Medical kit. Several notebooks and 24 pencils. Some Clif bars. One change of clothes. A credit card to be used only for emergencies. A palm-sized GPS tracker.

Tent. Sleeping bag. Compass.

No cell phone.

He repacked, shut off the lights and knelt on the concrete floor. Let me be present, he prayed. Let me handle challenges with grace and humility.

Then, Donovan DiLorenzo — an olive scarf wound around his head, a shadow of a beard on his face, Teva sandals on his feet — stepped from the hotel in Madaba, Jordan, his heart a mix of trepidation and hope, and began walking.

“The first time you step out — that’s the scariest,” he said. “You’ve built up all these expectations … and you’re just not sure how they’re going to unfold.”

Donovan’s Journey, as his family calls it, began Aug. 27, 2013.

It unfolded step by step, without any sure plan. Donovan, then 42, trekked as pilgrims in days of old through Jordan, Israel, Palestine, Egypt and India, letting the day’s encounters chart his path and depending on unexpected kindnesses for food, shelter and companionship. By the time he returned home in May, he had walked more than 1,100 miles.

Back home in Highlands Ranch where he grew up, his parents had anxiously followed his path through intermittent signals from a GPS tracker. They thought he was searching for self-discovery.

His younger sister later told him she thought his choice to travel without resources or a way to communicate with home was selfish because of the worry it caused those who loved him.

Donovan thought doing so was the only real way to live fully in the moment — to see and feel and understand a profoundness of life uncluttered by distractions. He wasn’t really searching for something; he just wanted to see what would happen if life directed him rather than the other way around.

“It was a kind of shedding or surrendering …,” Donovan said. “It was just about letting go and seeing how life would unfold being a little more present.”

His life had already detoured from the main road.

The tragedy of 9/11 caused him to rethink his course: He left a lucrative job as an account executive in New York to teach in New Orleans’ most challenging urban school district. He later helped with reconstruction and outreach following Hurricane Katrina’s devastation. From there, he joined the Peace Corps, working in Africa in Malawi, one of the world’s least-developed countries. He returned to New Orleans and taught there until last summer, when he decided to abandon life as he knew it.

He chose to walk most of his journey to have “more time to think, write and connect with others.”

When Donovan refused to take a cell phone, his parents, Neil and Michelle, persuaded him to pack a small GPS tracker.

“You’re not really communicating,” Neil told him. “At least, as long as the coordinates are moving, we’ll know you’re alive.”

Donovan agreed. Every three days, he activated the device and Neil plotted latitude and longitude on maps to follow his route. Even so, Neil and Michelle slept only a few hours each night those first few weeks.

“I am very nervous …,” Michelle said then. “That has been really, really hard, not knowing where he’s at.”

Donovan, at times, wasn’t sure exactly where he was, either. The trails seemed confusing, the heat unbearable. In those moments, anxiety would begin to seep into his thoughts — “that feeling,” he wrote later, “when you are unsure about the road ahead.” But then he would gather

courage, bring himself back into the moment, summon a sense of peace.

At the start, his feet bled. The backpack rubbed raw a spot on his back. Hunger became a frequent companion — he thought often of his mother’s pasta and meatballs.

But fortune continually crossed his path in the form of curious children, interested villagers or, simply, a patch of shade under a tree.

Strangers gave him freshly baked warm pita bread. They invited him to share tea around campfires and offered space in their homes to sleep. They shared stories that bound them across cultures and beliefs.

“I was really taken aback at how hospitable people were and how people would open up their homes,” Donovan said.

“There were those moments when you kind of step back and think, `Wow, that was truly amazing.’”

In those instants, he said, God gave him wonder.

He prayed in mosques, saw the Dead Sea, visited Cana and other places of the Holy Land, navigated military checkpoints between Palestine and Israel. He walked about 650 miles, according to Neil’s map calculations, before flying from the Red Sea to Cairo at the end of October.

After two weeks in Egypt, he flew to Mumbai and walked another 500 or so miles, visiting ashrams where he learned to meditate, and Buddhist temples where he prayed, and, finally, homes in Calcutta run by Mother Teresa’s Sisters of Charity, where he volunteered for two months.

He massaged lotion into the withered arms of old men, bathed sick patients, prayed over the dead then carried them to crematoriums.

“In Calcutta, there are moments when you have incredible suffering,” Donovan said, “but somehow people find a way to be joyous.”

There was the blind man who always sang. There were the children who laughed and played amid the squalor. And the special kinship shared with others who helped. “… a lot of suffering,” Donovan repeated. “But a lot of people giving of themselves.”

From India, he traveled to Indonesia for a month.

And then, life told Donovan it was time to return home to the much-missed embrace of family and friends.

Near midnight on May 12, Neil and Michelle drove slowly into the arrival lane at DIA as a tall figure with a bushy beard and a backpack walked to the curb.

“He had a scarf on,” Michelle said. But “I would know him anywhere.”

At home, Donovan ate a big plate of pasta and meatballs, satiating the craving that hunger had instilled. He reveled in the warmth of family.

“He’s very strong,” Michelle said, “but I’m just glad he’s home.”

Neil agreed. “We don’t have to worry.”

They listened to their son’s stories, marveling at the generosity of strangers who gave to the man who is always giving to others.

Yet, Neil said, “his experience is probably hard to share because we can’t understand it — we didn’t live it.”

Donovan is in California now, helping develop programs for the mostly Hispanic and disadvantaged teens served by the Boys and Girls Clubs of Sonoma.

Life kept telling him, he said, this was his next chapter.

He’s written 10 short stories about his pilgrimage and has ideas for about 10 more. He’s writing them, primarily, for family and friends so they can know how letting go propels life to unfold in wondrous, unexpected ways.

He would like to return to the Denver area someday.

But “you never know,” Donovan said.

“The main thing is I’m present and have the courage to follow where life is taking me. We’ll see.”

Perhaps, for Donovan, the journey hasn’t ended at all.

Governor sticks with different drum

Challenger highlights leadership issue

Hickenlooper says unusual approach isn’t indecision

Beauprez doubles down on tough approach

‘I sit there and look back over the

By Vic Vela

past four years

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com John Hickenlooper doesn’t worry about whether people “get” him.

His “aw, shucks,” nerd-like personality and his imperfect — and sometimes meandering — way of speaking are a far cry from anything that resembles a polished, focus-group-driven politician.

Through three elections, the quirky Hickenlooper brand has resonated with voters, as evidenced by a landslide win for governor in 2010, and before that, two decisive victories in Denver mayoral races.

But it is that same style that has left him wide open for political attacks. He has become fodder for Republican press releases that blast the governor as being a wishywashy failed leader who struggles while deciding over a breakfast menu, much less over areas of public policy.

“Obviously, I’m a different kind of politician, but that’s what most people said they wanted,” said Hickenlooper during a recent one-on-one interview with Colorado Community Media from inside his re-election campaign office in Denver’s Lower Highland neighborhood.

“They said they’re sick of the same old talking head who gets up in there in a robotic fashion and says the same platitudes that we’ve heard for a million years. That’s one of the reasons why people like me run for office.

I think people deserve more.”

Hickenlooper has heard the criticism before. But as he enters the final stretch of a tight re-election campaign against former Congressman Bob Beauprez, he prefers to talk about his economic record as governor.

There is no question that the economy has gained steam and jobs have been created under his watch. And he largely received praised for his response to crises that made national headlines, such as the Aurora theater shooting, wildfires and last year’s statewide flooding.

But Hickenlooper’s own words haven’t done him any favors this campaign.

Sometimes when the governor speaks, the result is reminiscent of the Grateful Dead during an off night — the trademark style is there, but it will sometimes run off the rails, leaving those listening scratching their heads.

His decision last year to grant a reprieve

(and) I think during all the significant

Hickenlooper

issues, I think we made the right decisions.’

John Hickenlooper, Colorado governor to death-row inmate Nathan Dunlap — who killed four people inside an Aurora Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant in 1993 — was met with confusion and criticism.

And in television interviews this year, the governor said that he has moved away from being a supporter of the death penalty (he told voters in 2010 that he was in favor of capital punishment).

And he suggested during a CNN interview that clemency for Dunlap may still end up being an option. The Hickenlooper campaign has said he was responding to a hypothetical question and maintains that Dunlap will die in prison.

Also this year, the governor caused a stir over remarks on gun-control legislation that he gave to a group of sheriffs meeting in Aspen. There, he apologized to lawmen for not better including them in the legislative process that led to him signing measures into law that created universal background checks on gun sales and banned high-capacity ammunition magazines.

Those measure were opposed by the majority of sheriffs in the state, many of whom were onetime plaintiffs in an unsuccessHickenlooper continues on Page 11

‘...This isn’t about who you want to go

By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com It seems appropriate that a guy who likes to play in the dirt is involved in politics — a business where a lot of mud gets slung.

Yes, Bob Beauprez is a former congressman and the Republican nominee for governor, but he is also a bison rancher and an avid gardener who likes getting his hands dirty.

“I am obsessive about the condition of our yard and garden and all that,” Beauprez said during a recent one-on-one interview with Colorado Community Media. “I love playing in the dirt. I love plants and fussing with them and the beauty of them.”

When Beauprez isn’t tending to his plants, he is on the campaign trail trying to plant the seed in the minds of voters that Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper is a failed leader who should be voted out of office.

“He has this obsession with collaborating; wants to talk everything through, forever,” Beauprez said of Hickenlooper. “He can’t make a decision, and he won’t make a decision.”

While Beauprez hammers away at Hickenlooper on a number of issues — gun control, the death penalty and hydraulic fracturing, just to name a few — he is also out to prove the late F. Scott Fitzgerald wrong, that there are indeed second acts in American lives.

Beauprez lost badly to Bill Ritter in a 2006 gubernatorial bid where he never recovered from the “Both Ways Bob” label that was pinned on him by a fellow Republican in the primary field.

It would be a quite a comeback story if Beauprez unseats Hickenlooper, especially in a state that has been trending Democratic in recent elections and where voters rarely have an appetite to vote out an incumbent governor. Hickenlooper is also backed by an economy that has grown stronger and created jobs on his watch.

But Beauprez believes voters now have the appetite to oust a governor who won his seat in a landslide in 2010 and whose personality has both endeared him to supporters and irked his detractors.

Beauprez spent the entire summer blasting Hickenlooper for “failing to lead” on the issue of the death penalty, having been highly critical of the governor’s decision to grant a reprieve to death-row inmate Nathan

have a beer with or shoot a game of pool with. who can lead this state.’

Bob Beauprez, Colorado gubernatorial candidate Dunlap, who killed four people at an Aurora Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant in 1993.

Beauprez said Hickenlooper should have either chosen to go forward with the execution or grant clemency, rather than taking a middle road.

Beauprez has also hammered away at Hickenlooper for his handling of issues surrounding hydraulic fracturing. Beauprez has been critical of the governor’s creation of a fracking task force that is charged with providing lawmakers with recommendations on oil and gas drilling issues.

Beauprez believes the oil and gas industry is already over-regulated and that Hickenlooper’s fielding of a commission is a yet another example of his “kicking the can down the road” approach to governing.

“At some point he crossed a line of ‘I just want to get along and make everybody happy,’ to ‘Where do you want to take us and how do you want us to get there?’”

“Lead,” Beauprez said of Hickenlooper.

Image not cuddly Beauprez is not afraid to attack, either through political ads or on the debate stage.

Have fun with 4H

By Michelle Boyer

Mkboyer8@gmail.com The Good Luck 4-H Club is in the midst of kicking off its largest fundraiser of the year, 3-8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 25, with a lasagna dinner (served 4-7 p.m.) at the Good Luck Building at the Adams County Regional Park and Fairgrounds.

“The Fall Festival is a multifunction event as it not only is a large fundraiser for us, but it’s also educational for the 4H members and their families,” Good Luck Club organizational leader Gloria Cundall said. “Each year the club members select a theme that usually requires them to do some research in order to plan and develop a booth that matches the theme. For example, this year the theme is “Memorable Moments in United States History.”

Some of the members are researching and studying the various wars and conflicts that the United States has faced.

Others are studying the presidents, Native American uprisings and the like.

The children also learn how to plan and turn their plans into reality. They learn leadership and teamwork.

The Fall Festival also serves to promote 4H and is a great community social event, bringing our community together for a common cause,” Cundall said.

This is the 21st year for the Fall Festival. Each year in April the club selects the festival theme, the ideas and plans start.

In 21 years, starting back in 1993, no Fall Festival has had the same theme,

and the event has gotten larger and more successful each year.

Cost for the lasagna dinner is $7 for adults and $5 for kids 6-and-under.

Cundall said funds raised from this annual event go towards defraying costs associated with the club entry fees for contests, facility rental where many events and activities take place as well as awards to honor and recognize club members.

“The Good Luck 4H families look forward to the Fall Festival each year, even though it requires a lot of team spirit and hard work our members realize that sometimes ‘work is fun,’ if done as a team,” Cundall said. “This is such a great time for the community as well, with many Good Luck 4H alumni and community members coming together for their once a year visit and to support a club that many feel passionate for.”

The Fall Festival includes the lasagna dinner, a silent auction, games, along with coloring and costume contests.

The evening includes entertainment by Brighton Jazz, along with the club’s home grown, former Good Luck 4-H member and leader Virginia (Cundall) Halligan who entertains the audience with selections from Patsy Cline, Doris Day and others.

Enrollment for the 2015 4H year will commence Oct. 15. Those interested may contact Gloria Cundall at 303-659-5559 or visit with her Oct. 25 at the Fall Festival.

Fair offers tips to keep children safe Predator A.W.A.R.E. fair held at Old City Hall

By Lou Ellen Bromley

bromleyclan@hotmail.com The old City Hall building at 4th Street and Bridge Street was the site of the Predator A.W.A.R.E. fair last Saturday morning in Brighton.

The entertaining, informative event, sponsored by Brighton Kiwanis Club, School districts 27J, and Adams 14, the City of Brighton and Brighton Police Department, and several other agencies and businesses, First Judicial District Attorney’s Office from Jefferson County not only had a booth to display information, it brought Jeffco’s very own mascot, Cheezo, to greet the children and to help teach both parents and children the importance of internet and cell phone safety.

Investigator in charge of the Cheezo Unit, Michael Harris, along with his wife, Investigator Cassandra Harris, developed the program in 1996 to help teach children and adults about the dangers of internet and cell phone predators.

The Cheezo Unit is the first in the United States to actively seek out and prosecute online predators. The Harris’s and there team currently do 150 to 160 programs a year at schools from elementary to high school level, and also do programs at any parent group or organization, where they can help parents and children understand the dangers of using the internet for children.

“The Cheezo unit feels education is the key to keeping our children safe while using their cell phones and the internet.” said Harris.” The team goes undercover online, to areas on the Internet used by kids to identify any sex offenders or other predator’s trying to contact children, and have made over 700 arrests.

Michael Harris explained “whatever

you put out on the Internet is out there forever. One mistake can affect your whole life.”

Harris said, “Only talk to people you know, face to face. This prevents personal information from getting into the wrong hands.”

Brighton State Farmer Insurance agent Jim Vincent was also taking an active part in helping keeping children safe by providing parents with Child Identification Kits to each child or parent at the fair. These kits are a simple was of having all the information about your child right at hand in case a child goes missing or is kidnapped.

The kit includes information about the child’s height. weight, date of birth, hair color, blood type, fingerprints and a place for a recent photograph. It also includes room for additional information like birthmarks, scars or if the child has glasses or braces, information readily available for police or emergency personal.

Rangers from Barr Lake state park, Michelle Seubert and Amy Radvany provided valuable information on water and boat safety for children, to all visitors at the fair. Along with some fun activities and prizes for the children, there was a visit from their mascot, a red-tailed Hawk. The Rangers also provided whistles, floating information capsules and other safety items for use on the water.

This event also included instructional classes for parents, youth and children provided by experts in various fields, demonstrations of martial arts and sessions that included preventing identity theft, how to prevent bulling and personal safety.

The Predator A.W.A.R.E. fair provided a great deal of helpful information to parents, grandparents and child care providers in how to deal with several types of emergency situations that involve the children and youth in our communities and our lives.

GERARD HEALEY President MIKKEL KELLY Publisher and Editor GLENN WALLACE Assistant Editor ASHLEY REIMERS Community Editor

Turning wine into ‘good works’ Instead of turning water into wine as we learned in the Bible, it is a case of turning wine into dollars to support a variety of “good works” exclusively in Westminster. For the 12th year, the Westminster Legacy Foundation is hosting its wine tasting fundraiser at the Westminster Westin Hotel and Conference Center.

The popular event is set for Friday, Oct. 17 with over 100 different wines to sample along with micro brews and there is a scotch tasting to top it off. Thanks to Total Beverage, an ample number of distributors bring their “adult beverages” for Foundation supporters to taste and enjoy along with complimentary appetizers from Westminster area restaurants.

Include a silent auction and live auction, and you have a solid enjoyable evening.

Plus, it is all for a very good cause.

The city’s foundation

The Westminster Legacy Foundation was initiated and established by the Westminster City Council in 1999. Mayor Nancy Heil spearheaded recruiting prominent business people for the initial Board of Directors which held its first meeting in 2001. The focus of the Foundation has been to partner with the city government to expand funding opportunities to enhance the quality of living in Westminster.

As a 501c3 organization, it is able to provide contributors and sponsors with a tax deduction opportunity which the City cannot offer under IRS law. Since starting fundraising events in 2001, the Foundation has distributed over $626,000 through

2013 which includes both restricted and non-restricted funds.

Helping make a difference in the community The foundation has played a key role in raising and administering funds for such major community projects as the Jessica Ridgeway Park, the Armed Forces Tribute Garden, historic restoration projects, the Nancy Heil Sculpture Tribute at the Irving Street Library and many others. Each year, the foundation accepts grant applications on a semi-annual basis from nonprofit organizations and the city of Westminster to serve a variety of community needs. Over the years, approximately 50 different organizations have received funds to extend their services. Without these grants, these nonprofit organizations would be forced to reduce or eliminate service to Westminster residents.

A plethora of service and projects

The recipients of foundation funding include such organizations as Growing Home, CASA of Adams and Broomfield Counties, CASA of Jefferson and Gilpin

Counties, The Senior Hub, A Precious Child, Access Housing, Clinica Colorado, Brothers Redevelopment, Inc. Community Reach Center, Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention, Westminster Youth Scholarships for recreation programs, Jefferson Center for Mental Health and Ralston House to list some of them.

From health services, to helping seniors with minor home repairs, to being the “voice” for abused and neglected children in court, to delivering meals to shut-in seniors, to providing temporary housing for homeless families, to offering free influenza inoculations, to funding recreation programs for low income families, the foundation’s partners are carrying out “good works” envisioned by City Council back in 1999. Obviously, the list of diverse services provided is longer than space will allow to mention.

Join the fun and provide support One of the two major fundraisers which the foundation holds each hear is the wine tasting event. Tickets are available at Total Beverage located at 93rd Avenue and Sheridan Boulevard. Why not enjoy a fun evening in Westminster to help support “good works” exclusively in Westminster.

Perhaps you would be helping a neighbor or friend in realizing a better life. Turning wine into dollars is all about helping others in the Westminster community.

Bill Christopher is a former Westminster city manager and RTD board member.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

What kind of political ads influence you?

With the November election only a month away, political ads are everywhere.

We asked pedestrians along Washington Ave. in Golden, ‘Have any of them influenced you?’

“I know the ads that influence me the most are the ones that encourage the politicians that allow women to have their rights,” Aaften Wesbrock, Denver

“There is way too many ads on T.V. There are more political ads than commercial ads — it’s just overwhelming,” Gregg Leidel, Wisconsin

“I haven’t really been influenced by any of the political ads so far,” Joel Simon, Lincoln, Nebraska

Sheriff candidates discuss budget experience

By Tammy Kranz

tkranz@colorado communitymedia.com The spotlight at a recent candidate forum shone on who was best qualified to manage the annual $58 million budget at the Adams County Sheriff’s Office.

Sheriff candidates Republican Mike McIntosh and Democrat Rick Reigenborn faced off Sept. 30 during a County Candidate Meeting hosted by the League of Women Voters of Adams County at Skyview Campus in Thornton.

After a few minutes introducing themselves, the audience began asking questions. One dealt with the experience each man had handling a budget.

Reigenborn said he managed

the budget for the Colorado Fraternal Order of Police when he served as the organization’s president.

“We always came in under budget,” he said. He added, “Being a single dad on a paycheck once a month I know about running a budget.”

As division chief at the Adams County Sheriff’s Office, McIntosh said he has overseen the budget for the past five years. The economical downturn forced him make difficult decisions about what to cut, he added.

“It’s real easy to spend within a budget when money is coming in,” he said, but it’s harder to do that during a financial crunch.

Reigenborn questioned how hard managing the budget could be when, he said, 70 percent of the

budget is employee wages and most of the remainder goes to running the jail.

“It doesn’t take a whole lot of mathematics to figure that out,” he said.

Reigenborn has been in law enforcement for 23 years, and during his time with Adams County has served as field patrolman, instructor, SWAT team member, undercover narcotics detective and detective sergeant. He is now a sergeant in the patrol division.

Reigenborn’s campaign slogan focuses on getting back to the basics of law enforcement.

“Let’s get back to being cops, not politicians,” he said.

McIntosh has been with the Adams County Sheriff’s Office for more than 26 years and has served

“I think it’s important a CEO of this organization has that level of experience,” said McIntosh, whose campaign slogan is experience mat-

ters.

Both candidates said they would like to end the municipal inmate cap at the jail and bring back unity at the Sheriff’s Office.

Public Service Credit Union in Brighton offered residents the opportunity to shred personal documents, old bills, checks or any other personal information that could be used in identity theft last Saturday at its Brighton location.

Nancy Patton from Public Service Credit Union’s Community Outreach office worked with Brighton Branch Manager Carol Lyman to provide this service for customers and residents at no charge.

“The purpose of Shred Day is to give people the opportunity to safely destroy any documents they are no longer needing, but have personal information on them that could be used for fraud or identity theft. We try to provide this service at least twice a year as a community service at all our branch offices,” Patton said.

All of the documents are shredded by Shred-It Co. and is then recycled, helping protect the environment by reducing landfill waste. Customers participating in Shred Day were also given the oppor-

Amanda Griffin from Brighton Kiwanis Club presented a check for $1,000 to Lieutenant Michael Prill at Fire Station 52 Monday afternoon for the purchase of pediatric emergency equipment.

The Kiwanis Club partnered with the Brighton Fire Department to obtain a grant from the Rocky Mountain District Founda-

tion specifically for the purchase of emergency pediatric equipment.

Each of Brighton’s first responders be equipped with all the supplies they will need in the event of an emergency involving infants or children.

Austin Coleman, paramedic and fire fighter with station 52 stated “Having the pediatric emergency equipment in each fire station is important because they never know when they will need them.”

Hot coffee and pastries were provided for anyone stopping by Public Service Credit Union in the morning, and later in the afternoon hotdogs and drinks were provided.

The next Shred Day is secluded to be sometime this coming spring, at a date to be announced after the first of the year.

Another round of roast beef Longstanding tradition at church serves up hearty meal at fundraiser

By Lou Ellen Bromley

bromleyclan@hotmail.com Henderson Community Church, at 120th Avenue and Oakland Street, in Henderson hosted its annual roast beef dinner Saturday, marking 54 years of serving up a hearty dinner of roast beef, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn, green beans, rolls and a choice of homemade desserts.

Little has changed in the last 54 years the church has been hosting this annual fund raiser.

The men start cooking huge amounts of beef days before, and fix more then 100 pounds of potatoes to mash, and the ladies of the church make all desserts and donate them to the church for the dinner. The church also

had several Christmas decorations and handmade items for sale on the main floor’s church bazaar.

The roast beef dinner is the largest yearly fund raiser for the church and has a longstanding tradition at Henderson, spanning several generations of area families. The older generations cook, serve and provide coffee, tea and lemonade, while the younger generation help out by bussing tables, setting up tables and making sure guests have plenty of rolls and butter to go with their meals.

Though most things change with the passing of time, the Henderson Community Church roast beef dinner has remained relativity unchanged throughout its long history.

Church families still do all the cooking, serving and cleaning up, and by involving their children and grandchildren, they are providing them with a chance to be a part of the history of friendship and service to the community as well as helping support the church.

Fourth-seeded Bulldogs host regionals

By Michelle Boyer

Mkboyer8@gmail.com With a season record of 18-1 the Brighton Bulldogs softball team will host the Region 4 tournament Saturday at 10 a.m. All games will be played at the Brighton Youth Baseball Association Fields located at Jessup East of Eighth Avenue.

Brighton plays Arvada West in game one, while Prairie View will play Rock Canyon. The winners of game one will play a 12:15 game.

These tournaments are in a double-elimination format. The final game of the day will start at 2:30 p.m. The winners of games four and five in each region will qualify for a state tournament.

“We’re playing well, especially when we’re ranked fourth in the regional tournament,” Coach Bob Gonzales said. “Ranked in the Top 5 is big for the community and team. We still have to play very good softball to qualify for state.”

Sealing the deal for the East Metro Athletic Conference title, Brighton operated with three home runs, including a grand slam made by senior Madison Motes for the 8-1 win over cross-town rival Prairie View at home Oct. 2.

“I was just trying to get a base hit to score more runs,” Motes said. “I was frustrated with my previous at bats because I was struggling with the inside pitches. I was also feeling a lot of pressure with bases loaded and two outs.

I didn’t want to leave my teammates hanging. Once I made contact with the ball I pretty much knew it was over the fence. It felt good.”

Motes said she is proud of her team this

“We’re 18-1 at this point which is a great record, and it gives us confidence going into regionals,” she said. “Since we have seven seniors, it has made our team stronger because we have played together over the years. Several of us have the experience of playing in a state tournament since our freshman year.

It’s the whole team’s effort that gets us the win

though.”

This is the first year she’s played first base.

In previous years, Motes has played second and short stop. Playing competitive ball with the Colorado Tigers, she plays second and third bases.

“Playing competitive softball does help me for when I play high school ball, because I get more practice and games in which makes

me a better player,” she said.

“Madison has stepped up for us when our two biggest hitters get walks,” Coach Bob Gonzales said. “She’s very productive and gets some big hits for us. The grand slam was a big pitch, big play and she did an excellent job.”

After BHS, Motes plans to continue playing softball at Colby College in Kansas. She plans to study to become a registered nurse.

T-Hawks outpower Wolves Dawgs claim win over Warriors

By Michelle Boyer

Mkboyer8@gmail.com The Prairie View Thunderhawks increased their season record to 5-1 after defeating Westminster 19-9.

“Westminster was a very well-coached and physical team,” Coach Todd Riccio said. “They were a tough team. We went into the game knowing we had to match their toughness and physicality. We had to beat it and to overcome it. Our kids played awesome in all three phases: offense, defense and special teams.”

According to Riccio the ground game did great, with great plays by RJ Ramirez, Donovan Otero, Zac Crispin, Jeremy Velasco and Dallas Marston who ran hard and blocked great.

The offensive line worked hard for the backs. Matt McConnell, Cody Mitchell, Seth Gulley, Gary Overton, Anthony Baker and Jordan Jackson all did outstanding on the offensive line. Tight ends Zach Peterson and Derek Miller also did a great job, not only blocking but catching the ball as well.

The defense rose to the occasion and matched Westminster’s offense, and after their first drive really kept them in check.

“Our defensive line of Ben Burnett, Skyler Severance, Cameron Worth, Jorge Garcia, Jovanni Monnarez and Israel Morales held up well and started to impose their will in the game,” he said. “Linebackers Brandon Sanchez, AJ Prestopino, PJ Gallegos, Mitch Ortega, Elmer Baca, Dylan Feighner all played exceptional. Our secondary of Torino Saldivar, Cory Ore, Luke Drybread, Tylor Amoako, Sean Rodarte and Dylan Monti also were dominate.

Special teams were on point as well, especially sophomore punter Isaac Campbell and kicker

Jessica Dunn.”

Riccio said it was a complete team win. Going into homecoming week he said the team needs to keep focused on Northglenn, and find a way to move the ball on them.

“We definitely need to find a way to slow down their high powered offense,” he said.

“With the distractions that come with Homecoming Week, it’ll definitely be a challenge. We look first to the challenge though.”

Prairie View junior Donovan Otero thinks his team is great this season. “We lost some great players on both offense and defense last year, so we’ve had to focus on creating a new offensive line,” he said. “Communication with each other, and working as a team has helped us play well and win games.

“The Westminster game definitely was one of the tougher games we’ve played this year.

They came out strong, played hard, and were really aggressive. Our defense was able to hold them off from scoring after the first quarter, which allowed our offense to make some plays and gain a 10 point lead.”

Playing wingback and running back, Otero said he enjoys both positions.

“I’m able to run the ball, try to make big play and hopefully score,” he said.

He started playing football when he was 8.

“I played T-ball when I was younger, basketball and ran track,” he said. “Football is just a passion of mine, and as one of the faster kids it helped when I played safety, running back and wingback. Making plays, scoring touchdowns, stopping plays has amped me up.”

Otero also participates in track, and said it has helped with his running in football. This year he’s planning on trying wrestling. He said his teammate RJ Ramirez said wrestling helped with his footwork, so he thinks it’s something worth trying if it’ll help him.

“Homecoming is always a fun week,” he said. “The team is pumped going into any

Donovan Otero on third and long running the ball after the offensive line opened up a big hole for him during the game against Boulder last month. Otero hit it hard for a first down, which drove Prairie View’s offense to keep the drive going and score a couple of plays later. Photo by Michelle Boyer game that night. As long as we go into the game playing like we’ve been, working together and don’t underestimate our opponents then I think we’ll be successful.”

As a freshman, Otero was awarded Most Valuable Player in football because of his touchdowns, and all-purpose yards on the freshman team. “I was able to play a couple times on varsity my freshman year, so that was motivating me to do well and to play hard into my sophomore and junior year,” he said. “My sophomore year I was recognized as honorable mention and all-conference in track.”

Riccio refers to Otero as a great studentathlete, and a great person in general. “He’s very competitive and works extremely hard,” he said. “We love how he has run the ball this year, and the toughness he has shown. We’re very excited for his future and the rest of this season. He’s an electric runner.”

Brighton defeats Montebello 28-13

“The boys played well enough to win,” Coach Pat Sandoval said. “Did they play a complete game? No. We’re still working on the little things that will make us a better football team. High school football is a very emotional game; it is a game of momentum. We let the Warriors have some momentum and let they stay in the game. We need to learn how to put teams away.”

According to Sandoval, Julian Mijares, Jackson Lambrech, Conner Pepin, Dalton Wadkins, Drew Petit, Brandon Crespin and Correy Medlock all played a good game.

“Next week will be a big game for us,” he said. “Boulder has a great running back whose is the real deal. Boulder will be a very tough opponent.”

Prairie View hosts Northglenn for its homecoming game with kickoff at 7 p.m. Friday.

Brighton travels to Boulder at 7 p.m.

Martinez Mercury Classic sets pace Brighton, Prairie view compete in cross country meet

By Michelle Boyer

Mkboyer8@gmail.com East Metro Athletic Conference League Championships will be today at the Aurora Sports Complex.

“On the boys’ side, it looks like Thornton and Brighton will be vying for the championship with the odds more in Thornton’s favor,” Brighton Coach Karen Smidt said. “Our boys will give them one heck of a fight though. On the girl’s side, it could go one of three ways— Thornton, Prairie View or Brighton. We all have what it takes to win the championship — it’ll go to whoever is ready and wants it more.

Our girls have been the league champions for the past four years. Last year the Brighton boys took second.”

Shaver feels leagues on the girls’ side will be a dogfight for first, especially with Prairie View and Brighton.

“They look good and have more front runners,” he said. “We run in a pack. It’ll be intense and really interesting to see how both strategies pan out. Either way, it should be fun to watch.”

Brighton hosted the Martinez Mercury Classic Cross Country Meet Sept. 30.

“It wasn’t until I changed the name to the Martinez Classic, and really advertised it that it has really taken off,” Smidt said. “The meet isn’t a Colorado Association of Recreational Athletics meet, although some CARA teams participate.”

Each year former Brighton High School cross-country Coach John Martinez starts the race since the race is named after him.

Smidt added the element of allowing elementary and middle schools to compete for free if the high school they feed into is attending the meet.

“It’s my way of really trying to push crosscountry,” she said.

Schools in attendance this year: Adams City, Alameda International, Brighton, Cheyenne East, Denver Academy of Torah, Fort Lupton, Prairie View, Prospect Ridge, Ridge View, The Academy Charter, Weld Central and Yuma . Elementary and middle schools that attended in the CARA meet were Denver Academy of Torah, Lottus School for Excellence, Platte Valley Track Club, Prospect Ridge

Academy, Redline, Shepherd Valley Waldorf, Shining Mountain Waldorf and The Academy JH. Leading the girls’ varsity team race was Prairie View with Brighton placing second and Yuma following in third place. Ridge View placed first on the boys’ side with Brighton placing second and Cheyenne East following in third.

“I was extremely pleased with our results,” she said.

Since the team had another meet within the week, Smidt didn’t want the athletes pushing so much and to hold back. On the boys’ side, Dan Mordecai finished second. Smidt said Kaila Green could’ve easily won for the girls, but secured her fifth place spot overall.

“The workout helped push a few girls to a season personal best time, so I was pleased with our results,” she said. “Madi Dent had a stellar race and moved into a scoring spot for the team.

“I have to comment on Prairie View’s Morgan Taylor — she showed great sportsmanship to the second place winner. Madison Floyd from Prospect Ridge took a huge spill at the finish and Morgan stopped to help her up, which was very impressive.”

Prairie View High School cross-country Coach Nathan Shaver feels that the Martinez Mercury Classic isn’t a huge meet, but the competition is good and ever year it gets bigger. “I might end up a pretty big meet because the course is so fast and well run (Nice job to Karen Smidt),” he said.

“The guys have had a tough year because they weren’t seeing the results they wanted from their training. It’s taken awhile, but finally Tuesday we had our breakthrough. Almost every one of my boys and girls set personal records,” said Shaver. “Adams County is where we run all summer, so they feel comfortable.

The guys needed to see some results and drop times to feel good again and be ready for leagues and regionals.”

“The girls have been on a hot streak. I hope we can hold it. They look strong and have been running really smart races. I think after one success, they realize what went right, and then use that to find the next one and keep going on like that. It was nice to get a win. We’ve taken second and third at a few meets, but the girls deserved to get a win on the season somewhere. Hopefully we can ride our hot streak on to regionals and make some noise,” Shaver added.

Hickenlooper Continued from Page 3

ful lawsuit against the new laws.

Those are a few examples of what has led to a lambasting of Hickenlooper over his “indecisiveness” and “failed leadership” on the part of Beauprez and the rest of the Republican Party.

“Where have I been indecisive?” Hickenlooper said. “Nathan Dunlap? The (Colorado) Constitution gives you three choices: Execution, clemency or a reprieve. We chose reprieve two months before the decision was made.”

“And background checks ... I did say I wish we had gone and allowed the other side a greater opportunity to discuss, but I never went back on the decision.”

No to negative ads

Hickenlooper said his political opponents are “looking for anything they can get” to defeat him, while ignoring his accomplishments.

The governor said he is proud of his work during the flooding that ravaged many parts of the state last year. While rain was wreaking havoc, the governor held a meeting with Colorado Department of Transportation administrators, during which he urged them to reopen roads around Lyons and Estes Park more than a month ahead of the time they believed was possible.

Had those roads not reopened when they did, Hickenlooper believes businesses in those small towns would have shut down.

“We made that decision in 48 hours while the rain was still falling — and we did it,” he said. “That’s indecision?”

In spite of a barrage of attack ads that target him, Hickenlooper sticks to the promise he made to voters years ago — that his campaign would never run a negative ad.

“Sure it works,” Hickenlooper said of

negative campaigning. “If all you care about is winning one short-term election, sure, go out and have a field day; load the cannons and fire off the missiles.”

“But, at the end of the election, after all those negative ads, no one is satisfied ... Whoever the winner is, there’s so many negative ads against them, they are going to have a hard time leading.”

Hickenlooper said he doesn’t regret any decision he’s made in office. And he points to an economy that has been among the best in the nation in many post-recession categories.

The Business Insider website ranks Colorado’s economy tops in the nation.

And Forbes magazine recently listed the state among the best states for businesses.

However, other economic models show the rest of the state lagging behind the strengthening Denver metro area’s economy with median household incomes decreasing over the last seven years.

Still, Hickenlooper believes his stewardship has helped the state move in a stronger economic direction.

“I sit there and look back over the past four years (and) I think during all the significant issues, I think we made the right decisions,” he said.

Hickenlooper said this is “probably” his last political campaign and that he has “no intention” of running for national office.

Hickenlooper said he never imagined that he would be running a re-election campaign for governor while he was opening the Wynkoop Brewery in lower downtown Denver in 1988, Colorado’s first brewpub and microbrewery.

“If you would have talked to me even in 1998, I would have said, ‘No way.

Why would I do that? Those guys get attacked,’” he said of running for political office.

“Can you really make a difference? Is it really worth the sacrifice? Well, it turns out you really can make a difference. And in my opinion it was worth the sacrifice.”

Beauprez Continued from Page 3

But some in the media have recently wondered whether Beauprez risks coming across as being too rigid — or even mean.

A Denver Post article described Beauprez’s performance during a Sept. 30 debate the newspaper hosted as “practiced and polished — if sometimes stern in his conservative views ...”

Left-leaning columnist Mike Littwin of the Colorado Independent said Beauprez came across as angry and bully-like during an Oct. 3 debate in Pueblo.

“There’s a very thin line between being aggressive and, well, being a jerk,” Litwick wrote.

During a tense moment of the debate, Beauprez was criticized by Hickenlooper for seeming to invoke the 2013 murder of Department of Corrections chief Tom Clements.

Clements was murdered outside of his Black Forest home, allegedly by Evan Ebel, an inmate who had been in solitary confinement just days before he was paroled.

Beauprez asked Hickenlooper: “What do you have to say to women who are widows who have orphans because of parolees that you have let out of state correction direct from solitary confinement?”

Hickenlooper blasted Beauprez’s comments.

“For you to make his murder part of a political gambit, I think is reprehensible,” the governor said.

Beauprez — who did not specifically mention Clements during the exchange — made no apologies about his comments when asked them during his interview with Colorado Community Media.

“It’s true,” Beauprez said as he leaned over the table for emphasis. Beauprez cited a 2013 Denver Post article that reported that 110 parolees were let directly out of solitary confinement and onto the streets in a single year.

As for whether people think he comes across as prickly, Beauprez said, “I take the job seriously.”

“Most people that know me know that I’m a pretty good grandpa, that I’m a pretty good dad. I’ve been a very good husband, so I’ve got that side to me as well,” he said. “But this isn’t about who you want to go have a beer with or shoot a game of pool with. This is about who can lead this state.”

Beauprez, who is pro-life, has also been on the defensive on women’s issues of late.

Although abortion and contraception topics have played a big role in Colorado’s U.S. Senate race, they only became a focal point in the campaign when Beauprez said during a Denver Post debate that intrauterine devices (IUDs) are abortifacients, meaning a drug that causes abortions.

Beauprez’s view is not backed by the Federal Drug Administration, which classifies the device as one that prevents pregnancies, not ends them.

Beauprez told Colorado Community Media that he believes women should use whatever birth control they want, “but I don’t think taxpayers ought to be funding that.”

Beauprez said that when Hickenlooper and Democrats try to attack Republicans on issues like abortion and birth control, they are guilty of trying “to change the subject.”

“People are so hungry for people to address the real issues in this campaign, but (Democrats) don’t want to talk about it,” he said.

With voters set to receive mail ballots soon, it is hard for Beauprez or any other office-seeker to get away from politics. When he does, Beauprez likes to retreat to his bison ranch, time away that he said is “almost like therapy.”

When asked if there are similarities between bison ranching and politics, Beauprez let out a hearty chuckle and said, “Good question.”

“With bison you don’t change their minds much,” he said. “You kind of have to convince them, cajole them, but mostly you have to encourage them and wait it out and be patient.

“And maybe that is a parallel (to politics), that you can’t always do it on your time, your schedule, your way. You’ve got to make sure and bring them along.”

Sheriff candidate runs on experience McIntosh highlights career, community involvement

By Tammy Kranz

tkranz@coloradocommunitymedia.com During the more than 26 years Michael McIntosh has been with the Adams County Sheriff’s Office, he has served in every division of the agency.

He’s been a patrol deputy, detective, SWAT team leader, lieutenant and division captain, and now the division chief of administrative services.

“What I’m running on is experience, and I think it matters,” said the Republican candidate for sheriff.

As the division chief, McIntosh has direct oversight of training, IT, civil, human resources, finance, records and public information office sections. His resume also includes oversight of the Sheriff’s Office annual $58 million budget and oversight and administration of 520 fulltime employees and sworn officers.

“Essentially, I’m running the business side of the sheriff’s office, and I have for the past five years,” he said.

Debate Continued from Page 1

Melonakis brought up the scandals that plagued Reyes. The current assessor pleaded no contest to charges of official misconduct in 2013. He was accused of lowering appraised values of properties owned by his top campaign contributor. Reyes also pleaded guilty in 2011 for failure to report gifts.

“You have to have the moral fiber to stand up for your convictions and do the right thing,” she said.

She added if she was elected, her first goal would be to familiarize herself with everyone in the assessor’s office.

Schaul pointed out that his knowledge and experience — two and a half decades worth — were going to be needed during 2015 because reappraisals were due.

He is also the Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) Academy directory and helped develop the regional training facility, Flatrock.

His ultimate goal as sheriff would be to suspend the municipal inmate cap at the jail, which has caused consternation among the cities within Adams County.

“I have a strong desire to completely get rid of the cap,” he said.

He said he did not like officers on the scene of an incident have to worry if his or her municipality has reached its cap and if an arrest should be made. He also did not like that people who are low risks to society are put in jail and face losing their jobs.

However, he added, “I’m a firm believer that if they are a threat to our community they need to be in jail.”

He said there were many different programs that worked in the past that the county should look into using to help reduce the inmate population in the jail.

If elected as sheriff, McIntosh said he would like to create a DNA lab in the county. Right now the county sends its DNA evidence to the Colorado Bureau of Investigations lab, which can be time consuming, he said.

“DNA evidence has been so critical with most of our trials, so demand on processing evidence has expanded greatly,” McIntosh said. “(Our own lab) opens up the door for our investigators to develop and eliminate suspects quicker.”

While the state does not charge the county now for using its lab, McIntosh said he suspects a fee will be coming shortly.

McIntosh listed his involvement with the community: board member of the Community Reach Center and Community of Faith United; a committee member of the Metro North Chamber of Commerce, Business and Government Affairs; and board chair of Prairie Community Church.

“I’m not just focused internally on our employees,” he said. “I’m focused externally on the community to know what its needs are. I want to have a Sheriff’s Office that has an impact on the communities we serve.”

McIntosh has lived in Adams County for almost 40 years and graduated from Brighton High School. He served in the U.S. Navy before joining the Sheriff’s Office in 1988. He and his wife, Cathy, have two children.

McIntosh

Melonakis is the Republican candidate and has been in property management and a real estate broker for 21 years. Schaul, the Democrat candidate, is a state licensed appraiser.

Incumbent Adams County Coroner Monica Broncucia-Jordan, Democrat, faced off with Republican candidate Mike Arnall.

Broncucia-Jordan highlighted her experience, mainly the past four years she has been the coroner.

Arnall highlighted his 25 years of forensic pathology experience and that he has done 4,000 autopsies and testified in 300-400 homicide trials in the nation.

“If residents want a coroner that is a certified forensic pathologist, they should vote for me,” he said.

Broncucia-Jordan pointed out that a coroner’s job was to administrate, and that the coroner’s office would have a certified forensic pathologist on staff regardless of who won.

“I hope that during the last four years in office I’ve earned your support and respect,”

she said.

The candidates for clerk and recorder tangled about the county’s ability to streamline services at the Department of Motor Vehicles.

Republican candidate Stan Martin said if he was elected into the office, he would work on decreasing wait times at the DMV. He said he has studied the Lobby Service System used in El Paso and the average wait time is 11 minutes.

Cynthia Martinez, Democrat, said that the DMV division was an agent of the state and that Adams County just could not implement change without its consent.

“When we talk about change it has to come through the state,” she said. “We work for them and they finance it.”

Martin rebutted: “We can absolutely put in our own lobby service system. We don’t need permission to do that.”

Martin has 23 years of experience in business management. Martinez is a current councilwoman in Brighton and has more

than 25 years in the legal field.

Martinez said one of the things she would like to do is update the software in the Clerk & Recorder Office.

Aside from shortening the DMV wait time, Martin said he would like to look into why the office is spending $500,000 in overtime each year.

“When you’re working them too much they get tired, burned out and make mistakes,” he said.

The only candidate that was not able to make it was Steve Douglas, a Commerce City councilman, who is running against incumbent Brigitte Grimm for the treasurer spot.

Douglas, a Democrat, wrote a letter apologizing for his absence, explaining that there was an emergency council meeting he had to attend.

Grimm, a Republican, did share with the audience her background and qualifications.

October reminds those of us who are breast cancer survivors how lucky we are for having lived through the journey.

Ours is a sorority we never wanted to join. But we did unwillingly and lived to tell it. For me, a multi-year survivor (it’s funny that I no longer remember how many years), October is also a month to support breast cancer patients who are on the path to survival through donating to a charity.

My wish in October, and the rest of the year, is for a cure in my lifetime that will annihilate this insidious disease.

Chicken special is back

I cornered Denver restaurant mogul Frank Bonanno at one of his booths during Denver Food and Wine recently, and begged, pleaded and cajoled him into bringing back chicken Tuesdays at Lou’s Food Bar, 1851 W. 38th Ave. And although I can’t take total credit for the return of one of my favorite restaurant deals — a half fried chicken (naked, medium or Nashville hot) with two sides and a draft for $20 per person — I certainly added to the popular demand to bring back that Tuesday tradition.

Lou’s has also extended hours to welcome late-night diners and drinkers, and has expanded the tap selection to 17 drafts.

Reservations: www.lousfoodbar.com; walk-ins welcome.

Thanks, Frank!
