Controls on burns likely to backfire

BY JENNIFER OLDHAM FOR PROPUBLICA

Colorado’s snowcapped

Rockies towered in the distance on a crisp April day as re ghter Emilio Palestro used a torch to ignite damp prairie grass within view of a nearby farmhouse and a suburban neighborhood.

Propelled by a breeze, orange ames crackled up a ditch bank, devouring a thick mat of dead grass, cornhusks and weeds. It was neither too windy, nor too humid, nor too hot — a rare goldilocks moment for re ghters to

safely clear irrigation ditches of weeds, grasses and brush that can block the ow of water and spread wild re.

“At this time of year, it’s a race against what we call green-up,” said Seth McKinney, re management o cer for the Boulder County Sheri ’s O ce, as eye-stinging smoke curled over newly emerging shoots of grass nourished by a wet winter. “We are threading that needle to nd the right time in between a rainstorm, red ag conditions” — when winds, temperatures and dry conditions magnify wild re

risk — “and snow melt.” McKinney is trying to prevent con agrations like the Marshall Fire, the most destructive wild re in the state’s history, which killed two people and incinerated 1,084 residences and seven businesses in December 2021. at re ignited in overgrown grasslands crisscrossed by unkempt ditches, which together spread ames into urban areas with unprecedented speed, according to scienti c simulations and eyewitnesses.

e controlled use of re by expert crews is widely

considered the most e ective way to reduce the dangerous build-up of grasses and other vegetation that fuel larger con agrations, experts agree.

But it has become nearly impossible to conduct controlled burns like the one McKinney’s crew set last month. A combination of overly broad restrictions, erratic weather patterns and public resistance have left piles of dead branches and shrubs sitting in open spaces for months.

Figuring out how to overcome these barriers, preva-

lent throughout the West, is crucial to addressing the re risk, say land managers whose homes were also threatened by the Marshall Fire.

“We’ve done a lot of work in the forests about what to do to reduce re risk and anticipate re behavior,” said Katharine Suding, a plant community ecologist at the University of Colorado Boulder who is working to update re modeling of prairie vegetation. “We need to do that in the grasslands.”

New Downtown coming along

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

e WYND Flats at 90th and Westminster Blvd. in Downtown Westminster will be the city’s rst condos in over a decade.

“ e rst condominiums constructed within the city in well over 10 years due to complications that previously existed with the Colorado construction defects laws,” Economic Development Director Lindsey Kimball said.

e news came from the May 15 study session meeting updating the council on the progress of Westminster’s new downtown. It’s at about 30% built out, Kimball said, and more progress is coming.

John Burke, P.E., Economic Vibrancy Manager, said the area has long been important to Westminster. In the 1980s, the Westminster Mall was a regional destination. In 1994, it generated 40% of the sales tax revenue for Westminster.

When the Flatiron Mall opened a few miles north on U.S. 36 in August of 200, sales tax revenues at the Westminster Mall declined

from $7 million to $541,202. Macy’s, Mervyn’s, Sears, Dillards and the AMC eaters all closed.

e city acquired the mall in 2011 and held public meetings asking what residents would like to see in the space. at is where the vision for Downtown Westminster came from, he said.

Positives, and negatives

Since Westminster owns the land, Burke said the buildings must be LEED Silver certi ed. He said that led to one of the buildings using 43% less water than anticipated.

e site also has access to the US 36 Sheridan RTD station, which is a 15-minute ride to Denver and 25-minute ride to Boulder.

Between 2009 and 2045, Kimball said that expenditures like infrastructure and

land acquisition cost about $208 million. But revenues come in at about $414 million and the city is expected to break even in 2033. ose numbers are conservative, she said.

To build resilience, Kimball said the ‘secret sauce’ is the mixed uses built patiently. ere are multiple developers building block by block, instead of one.

“We are trying to build resilience against market shocks and changes and trends or tastes in shopping so that we can organically develop and eventually in (the future) it will redevelop again,” she said.

Kimball said plans call for stepping building heights down, with taller buildings in the center of the site, to better integrate it into the surrounding 92nd Ave and

Westminster Blvd. neighborhood.

Some of the new developments for 2023 to 2025 include condominiums, housing for 55+ active adults, townhomes and Marczyk Fine Foods.

According to the meeting’s agenda, future developments underway include Woonerf Townhomes, WYND Flats, Townhomes on 92nd, Marczyk Fine Foods, VH Companies and Vertical Collaborative Active Adult Development, Center Park, Bonchon Korean Barbeque, Alley Tea, Edward Jones, Vatos Tacos, and Inks and Drinks.

e developments and retailers already up and running include Alamo Draft House, 8877 Eaton Street, Hope Pediatric Dentistry, Lash & Company, 100%

foraSummerNight

Chiropractic, Ascent Westminster, Sweet Bloom Coffee Roasters, Westminster Tap & Burger, Origin Hotel, Famille restaurant, Tattered Cover, Aspire Westminster, Westminster Row, and Townhomes on Harlan.

Mayor Pro Tem David DeMott asked about the density of the new downtown and the di erent units that will be available.

“Success is all going to be about a mix so we have different options for di erent folks at di erent income and age brackets,” DeMott said.

Kimball said that the rst housing project in the area was a ordable housing.

e next two had 10% of units set aside for a ordable housing. She said the site has a wide variety of di erent kinds of units.

City Councilor Sarah Nurmela asked for even more attainable housing as well.

“We want to make sure we have a diverse o ering of residential units,” Burke said.

He also said that it’s important to have enough people in the area to support the small retail.

Mayor Nancy McNally asked if the city is talking with Je erson County regarding a library in the area and Burke said they are looking to collaborate with the county, but no answers have been given yet.

“We would love it,” he said.

Northglenn passes e-bike, e-scooter regulations

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLROADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Northglenn won’t take chances with e-scooters, adopting some new rules for how and where they can operate.

At the May 22 city council meeting, Northglenn unanimously approved an ordinance that will put guardrails on where e-bikes, e-scooters and other devices can be used in the city.

“ is use is already happening pretty signi cantly out in our parks and neighborhoods,” said Director of Parks, Recreation and Culture Amanda Peterson.

It comes after six months of council and city sta developing a plan of how to address the relatively new transportation modes. A study session on Nov. 21 started the conversation on the topic and another study session on April 17 nailed down what the council could move forward with.

Currently, children can’t operate e-scooters and they can’t be operated on City property, according to the meeting’s agenda. It comes down to how the code de nes Electric Personal Assistive Mobility Devices and Other Power-Driven Mobility Devices which was changed with the new law.

e new ordinance will allow for

sidewalks.

It also allows the city to designate where e-scooters, e-bikes and powered mobility devices are prohibited, and where riders will need to

of 18 must wear a helmet at all times.

current ordinance would mean if a child is riding an e-scooter on our trails or on our streets, or an adult for that matter, it would be permissible. Right now, it’s against our

ordinance to allow any child to be on any scooter or any toy vehicle in our city, regardless of where it’s at,” said Peterson.

It also comes down to state law, which according to City Attorney Corey Ho man, the City can’t regulate e-scooters di erently than e-bikes. e city does not regulate ebikes currently, Peterson said.

E.B. Rains Park will be a pilot program to encourage the correct use of e-bikes and e-scooters. is means that sta will use signs and trail marking to identify where riders will need to dismount.

Mayor Pro Tem Shannon Lukeman-Hiromasa asked if the ordinance is consistent with other cities.

“It’s de nitely a mix. Everyone is in a similar boat trying to play catch up with similar ordinances,” said Peterson.

She said those who have recently updated their code look similar to Northglenn. As an example, she said whether a child can or cannot ride an e-scooter on a sidewalk is blurry in other cities, as well as Northglenn.   is ordinance allows for children to ride the scooters, but Mayor Meredith Leighty expressed concern over that.

“I don’t think small children should be on those electric scooters, but that’s not for me to say,” she said.

Slow speed zones enforcement starts June 1

BY LUKE ZARZECKI LZARZECKI@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Northglenn will start enforcing the safety sensitive zones on June 1, City Manager Heather Geyer announced to council at the May 22 city council meeting.

“Signage for this program is installed, the tra c unit through the police department will begin enforcement,” she said.  City Council unanimously approved the increased fees in these speci c residential zones at the Feb. 13 meeting.

Fines will double. For speeding 5-9 mph, the ne in those zones will go from $60 to $120, for 10-19 mph, $160 to $320, and for over 20 mph, the penalty will go from $250 to $499.

According to the Feb. 13 meeting’s agenda, the total civil penalty for a single tra c o ense or infraction cannot exceed $499. ose nes will not be subject to a plea bargain.  e program, initiated by City Councilor Nicholas Walker, was inspired by the City of Parker which adopted the zones to enhance public safety along its roadways. e hope is to change motorist behavior.

According to the city’s website, the zone locations are: Fox Run Parkway from roughly North Park to South Park, Irma Drive from south of Fowler Drive to E. 115th Avenue, Community Center Drive from the SCL Health entrance to the Boondocks parking lot and Melody Drive near Northglenn High School (used by students, existing tra c calming measures through Connect Northglenn)

Geyer said the top three citations that went through the municipal court system in April were speeding 10 -19 miles over the speed limit, careless driving and no insurance.

Colorado search and rescue funding gets another boost

BY TOM HESSE COLORADO PUBLIC RADIO

A decision earlier this month to increase the price of cards that support Colorado search and rescue groups is the latest step aimed at helping a rst responder network that advocates say is shouldering a bigger burden than ever before.

e Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission increased the price of the Colorado Outdoor Recreation Search and Rescue Card. It’s a sort of formalized way for outdoor recreationists to donate to search and rescue. But, it’s a small piece of what has historically been a limited pool of funds.

“Up until about a year ago, the state funding was all revenue based on the hunter and sher licensing as well as the OHV registrations and the Colorado Outdoor Search and Rescue Card Sales,” Perry Boydstun Search and Rescue program manager said. “And so it generated roughly $620,000 a year. Some of that was used for reimbursing counties or nonpro t organizations when they went out on incidents. And then the rest of the funding was used on grants for training and equipment.”  at money was split between search and rescue organizations around the state, which are managed at the county level. However,

in recent years, state legislators have passed a number of bills that will add millions of dollars to that fund, creating new opportunities.

“Some of the counties haven’t really looked into what they need because they’ve just been functioning on what they have. When you don’t have a lot of money you don’t look into what you wish you had,” Boydstun said. “Now that there is a little bit more money you start to think a little bit, ‘Wow, if we had this it would improve our response time by an hour or two hours.’ And that’s big when you’re in life-or-death situ-

ose life-or-death situations can be any number of things, depending on where you are in the state.

Je Sparhawk, the executive director of the nonpro t Colorado Search and Rescue Association, said local operations are grappling with how to continue o ering volunteer-based, no-cost rescues.

“ at’s the million-dollar question. We’re not exactly sure what that looks like. We’ve looked worldwide at how search and rescue is handled. By and large, it’s volunteer across the globe,” he said. “And relying on volunteers makes sense in a lot of di erent ways, up to a point. If it’s so busy that the volunteers can’t hold a job or can’t have a life because there’s just too much need for services, then the situation needs to change. By and large, I don’t think we’re at that point for most counties … but how do we do that, I don’t know.”

Sparhawk’s organization is considering ways to centralize some things that search and rescue teams need, like legal services, human resources support and accounting. But, he said, many of the problems the state faces as a whole have trickle-down e ects for search and rescue.

“Just like everywhere else in Colorado, housing is a big issue. For most of the younger folks, if you’re

living in a mountain community, you’re working multiple jobs, probably, just to live there. And you don’t necessarily have time for search and rescue. You don’t have the disposable income to donate to search and rescue. So the greater societal challenges are a ecting us the same way they’re a ecting everybody else,” Sparhawk said.

Jenny Hart is a volunteer with Ouray Mountain Rescue. eir rescue team responds to everything from ATV rollovers on old mining roads to injured hikers on the county’s 14,000-foot peak, Mt. Sne es. She said state funding is welcome and overdue. In Ouray, they nally had to ask for money from local governments for the rst time in the organization’s history.

“Literally, 49 years in, we’re nally getting a little bit of help from the governmental agencies in the region. Otherwise, we fundraise everything. It’s all donations from private donors. We sell t-shirts and hats,” Hart said. “But really it’s been a huge process over the years and connecting with people who want to support us.”

Snowmelt is swelling Colorado’s rivers

BY SHANNON MULLANE THE COLORADO SUN

Floods, swollen rivers, road closures — Colorado’s spring runo season is in full swing and much of the snow in the state’s mountains hasn’t melted yet.

Colorado saw higher-thanaverage snowfall build up on the Western Slope this year, a boon for irrigators and other water users who rely on the Colorado River Basin which spans Colorado, tribal lands, six Western states and parts of Mexico. But the snowmelt, with the help of recent weather, is leading to high runo and its adverse impacts are popping up around the state like a game of whack-a-mole.

Beyond monitoring for mudslides and rockfalls loosened by rain and high runo , the Colorado Department of Transportation is also watching bridges and roads for possible closures.

“I’m seeing higher ows in almost every single drainage that we have over here (in western Colorado) than what we’ve seen probably in at least four or ve years, if not longer,” said Julie Constan, a CDOT regional director. “We had such a heavy snowpack across the entire western portion of the state, so that’s causing all of the creeks to de nitely be running higher than what we’re used to seeing.”

On the Front Range and Eastern Plains, 10 days of rain in May helped with the state’s continuing recovery from drought over the past year. e amount of the state experiencing drought conditions has dropped from 93% a year ago to just 11% today.

But the rain has also combined with snowmelt to cause ooding around Colorado. In northeastern and southwestern Colorado, communities in the WhiteYampa River Basin and along the Dolores River have built sandbag barriers to slow encroaching ooding.

On May 11 in Denver, Cherry Creek leapt to its highest ow rate since 1980 after intense rain supplemented by reservoir releases, according to media reports.

For anyone traveling,

weekend, checking road and weather conditions will be key for a safe outing.

Statewide, 42 people died in water-related accidents in 2022, according to the Colorado Parks and Wildlife. As of May 18, two people died in con rmed water-related incidents this year. e state recommends that boaters wear life jackets regardless of age or experience level.

Campsites could also be temporarily closed. Dinosaur National Monument closed its Pot Creek campsites this month due to the possible failure of an old, earthen dam on private land. e dam is structurally sound, but the area has received so much snow this year that, as of mid-May, runo in ows increased the reservoir’s elevation to within a few inches of the dam’s crest, Park Ranger Dan Johnson said.

“ e state o ce was concerned that, should that dam fail in the middle of the night when people are camping there, it could create a hazardous situation,” Johnson said, adding that the campsites could reopen in time for Memorial Day weekend campers.

e high spring runo is also impacting road conditions across the state. In southeastern Colorado, the Arkansas River ooded U.S. 50 near La Junta.

A debris ow at the Hanging Lake exit on Interstate 70 in Glenwood Canyon blocked access to the trailhead for two weeks before it reopened last week. e Forest Service announced the trail is closed again until at

“ e amount of water coming down the trail in many spots is really impressive,” Leanne Veldhuis, Eagle-Holy Cross district ranger, said in a news release. “ ere is currently no good way around the water, so we have closed the trail until the runo lessens or our trail crew can mitigate it.”

CDOT is also working to repair a gaping sinkhole that appeared on Colorado 133 near Paonia. Rushing spring runo overwhelmed a culvert under the highway and caused enough erosion to collapse a section of the road that is roughly 20 to 30 feet wide — and certainly large enough to t a sedan, she said. A temporary bridge should be installed by earlyto mid-June, and permanent repairs should begin this fall.

“Lots of monitoring going on, but so far, the only real major failure we’ve had has been on 133,” Constan said. “It’s a good thing that there’s only been one major failure and everything else pulled together OK.” is winter, Colorado saw storm after storm add snow to the growing snowpack in the mountains.

By early April, that buildup peaked. e amount of liquid water in the snow, called the snow-water equivalent, across the Western Slope was 130% to 140% of the median between 1991 and 2020, according to the Colorado Basin River Forecast Center. e estimate is based on SNOTEL data collected using a network of highelevation instruments that measure snowpack. On the

median this winter.

In the Upper Colorado River Basin, which includes Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming, the amount of water peaked in early April at about 150% to 170% of the historical norm. ese states are situated upstream of Lake Powell on the UtahArizona border, one of the basin’s largest water storage reservoirs. e reservoir’s dam, Glen Canyon Dam, sends water down to Lower Basin states — Arizona, California and Nevada — which also had an exceptionally wet year, said Cody Moser, senior hydrologist at the forecast center.

However in the Upper Basin above Lake Powell, most of the snowpack is still sitting at 150% to 170% of the norm, Moser said, according to SNOTEL data.

“Across the northern part of the Upper Colorado River Basin, there’s been alternating periods of sunny, warm weather that generates the snow melt and the higher ows,” he said. “And then we’ve seen those periods alternating with cooler, cloudier weather that’s brought some additional moisture in both rain and snow. It’s helped the snowmelt rate decrease, so it’s been kind of up and down in April and May.”

Southwestern Colorado has seen more continuous warm, sunny weather and thus more snowmelt than other parts of Colorado, like the northwestern region, he said.

Colorado also received higher-than-normal snowpack across elevations

lower than 9,500 feet, where quickly. at thick layer is also frequently downstream of reservoirs which means, depending on the location, the water is going straight into streams and rivers.  at has led to an extended period of high ows, especially in the White-Yampa River Basin in northwestern Colorado and the Dolores River Basin, Moser said. And when rain falls onto snow, as it has in isolated patches across the state, the liquid water speeds up melting even further.

“We’ve entered into a period of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoons and evenings,” he said. “We’ve had some enhanced melt due to rain-on-snow with some of these storms.”

SNOTEL sites are generally located above 9,000 feet so lower elevation runo isn’t re ected in basinwide snow-water equivalent percentages. ese sites target between 9,000 and 11,500 feet where most of the snowpack typically accumulates. at’s why the snow-water equivalent percentages from SNOTEL data have not changed by much, he said.

“ ere’s still a lot of highelevation snow up there,” Moser said.

Americans are losing trust in the U.S. Supreme Court

It should not be a big surprise to read that Americans continue to lose trust in the conduct and decisions of the seated U.S. Supreme Court. Six out of ten respondents to a recent survey conducted by Marist College of Poughkeepsie, New York said they have not much or no con dence in the highest court in the is is a continuing trend of declining trust in the once highly-regarded institution. Sixty two percent (62%) surveyed said they had little or no con dence in this court while 37% indicated a great deal or a good amount of con-

dence. is is the lowest ratings in the ve years which Marist has been polling this question.

Obviously, there is a clear division among people in the two major political parties (no surprise). Fifty three percent (53%) of Republicans do have con dence in the court while only 39% of independents and 24% of Democrats do. e seated justices make up the most conservative court in decades according to NPR. It has made one conservative decision after another - from abortion and voting rights to LGBTQ rights and guns. Certainly Justice Clarence omas has fanned the ames of distrust and doubt with his recent disclosures. Another polling result showed 68% of respondents favored limiting justices to serve for a set period time.

Perhaps it is a ripe time to pursue

a constitutional amendment to take away life-time appointments! I never thought it was a good idea in the rst place.

New westy municipal court building takes a key step

e idea of a new municipal court building took a major step forward at last week’s council meeting.

Council approved reimbursement of eligible preliminary expenses involved with the new court building as the city proceeds with design and construction of the project. Such eligible expenses could include architectural, engineering, survey and soil testing.

is kind of authorization is standard to have these early expenses included in any permanent nancing of the entire project.

A return to grace

Listening to the conversation around a business dinner table, I found myself trying to stay away from the conversation as it began to center around what was wrong with society and basically the world in general. If you are a regular reader of this column, you know that I try and remove myself as quickly as possible from anything I perceive as negativity, and this conversation was devolving quickly in that direction. Remaining quiet and checking my phone to try and avoid being drawn into the discussion didn’t quite work out the way I had hoped. Before I knew it, the group turned their attention to me and asked me what I thought. e good news is that I was already prepared with my response, it’s my same response whenever I nd the people around me focusing on what is wrong with the world instead of what is right.

After placing my phone on the table, I looked around the table and one by one, I made eye contact with everyone before saying, “A return to grace.” I will share that whenever I give that response the rst reaction is usually confusion, followed by cynicism, and then possibly a little mocking, questioning my sincerity. Standing my ground, I made it a point to once again making eye contact with everyone before restating my position, “Yes, you all heard me correctly, a return to grace.”

Remaining silent once again, I waited for someone to ask me what it means to return to grace. And it never fails, someone will always ask me to elaborate on that statement.

Returning to grace means that we give everyone the same grace that we would expect when we screw up.

I haven’t met the person, the company, the politician, or anyone else who hasn’t screwed up royally. And I include myself among the elite when it comes to making mistakes, I am pretty sure I am close to the top, if not at the top, when it comes to screwing up.

teetering on the precipice of total chaos and anarchy? OK, maybe that is a little dramatic, but then again maybe not. Are there people whose actions and words are driving us crazy? Absolutely. Do we sit stunned as we read or watch the news, wondering, “What idiot thought that was a good idea?” Or maybe we just let the anger and resentment fester inside of us until it reaches a boiling point or creates an ulcer. And then we share our outrage with anyone who will listen. And even if there is no one to listen, we go on a rant on social media, posting our anger and frustration, continuing to carrying the weight of what’s wrong with the world on our shoulders.

A return to grace means that instead of playing the blame game, we play the love and forgiveness game. I know, I know, I have heard it before that this is not a realistic approach in dealing with the nonsense and idiotic decisions being made and the ridiculous actions of those who we do not agree with.

under the spirit of love and forgiveness as opposed to harboring anger, resentment, and frustration relative to the things that I have absolutely no control over. And if you still disagree with me, or think I am a bit too naïve, then maybe this can be your rst attempt at o ering me some grace.

Will society ever be perfect? No. Will people ever be without fault? No. Will the world ever get back to what the majority of us would call normal? Maybe, maybe not. But wouldn’t it be a better place if we all gured how to o er love and forgiveness instead of spite and hostility? As always, I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@ gmail.com, and when we can truly make that leap towards a return to grace, it really will be a better than good life.

Municipal court sessions were held in the round Council Chambers. In the 1980’s, the police and court moved to its own building at 88th Avenue and Sheridan Boulevard.

en much later the courts moved to the city hall building on 76th Avenue. Now, the judicial function will still be on the site where they were in 1961, but in their own separate building. e decision to build a new court facility is long overdue and will be a welcomed improvement.

Clock is ticking on national debt ceiling

While President Biden and Speaker of the House Kevin McCartney jockey for position on negotiating a deal on cutting spending in order to raise the debt limit, the clock is ticking away.

As I write this column, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen speculates that there are up to ten days left before the United States cannot pay their accrued bills and loans.

Plain and simple, the threat of the United States government defaulting on its debt has huge global and national consequences. It could well be the tipping point to send us into a full recession which is the last thing America needs right now.

Let’s not play “Russian Roulette” with our nancial future. Biden and McCarthy need to quickly reach some compromises which are salable to both Congressional houses. Hopefully, McCarthy can deliver with his Republican majority in the House. While the Republican House has leverage to wield and Biden wants to save all the funding approvals, the fate of the nation is far more important. Let’s hope they understand and act accordingly.

Who were the Westminster Angels?

Here is a piece of Westminster history you won’t nd in the history books. Do you have any clue who the Westminster Angels were?

Perhaps they were an acapella men’s group? Or maybe a volunteer group of retired nurses? Or how about a committee of mixed denominations of Westminster churches addressing human needs?

Nope, it was none of those.

e Westminster Angels were a semi-pro baseball team (no pay) which sprang up in the 1975 baseball season. Some Ranum High School players and college guys who had graduated from Ranum came up with the idea. ey wanted to experience semi-pro ball. e J.V. high school coach, Chris Dittman, thought it was a great idea and things started happening.

anks to Westminster Window articles and an interview with Chris, I got the low down. ese guys were pretty good baseball players. In fact, some of the players were later drafted by major league teams. e shortstop from Grand Canyon University was also a quarterback and later played with the San Diego Chargers for several seasons.

e team had a sponsor who popped for the snazzy uniforms. Ken Cornish who owned Industrial Disposal was a big supporter. e team played the Arvada Dons, Broom eld Athletics, Englewood Redbirds, Boulder Collegians, Pueblo Merchants, Olympia Brewers and the Colorado Springs Blue Sox. Home games were played at Ranum High School.

The college med student pitcher

e Angels did a six game road trip to Kansas in August playing in Dodge City, Fort Hayes and Liberal. Unfortunately, they lost all six games due to the opponents’ extremely good pitching, according to Coach Dittman. ey wrapped up their one and only season nishing third in the state semi-pro tournament in Pueblo.

man was named Coach of the Year.

For the season, the Angels nished 18-18 which isn’t too shabby a start.

A fun thing for me in reading all of the Window clippings was a photo and write up about Angel’s ace pitcher Mike Archer. Mike is a fellow Westminster Rotarian and was my family doctor for more than 30 years.

Dittman shared with me that Archer was in med school at C.U. during the baseball season. During the Kansas tournament in Liberal, Mike drove his own car from Westminster to Liberal to pitch the game that day and afterwards hopped back in his car and drove to back Boulder to attend classes the same day. Now that is being a dependable player and dedicated student!

While the team only played one season, it was a good experience for the players and an opportunity for Westminsterites to see baseball played a cut above high school ball. So now, you know who the Westminster Angels were.

Let’s hear it for the Nuggets!

It only took 47 years to do it, but the Denver Nuggets are in the championship round in the National Basketball Association.

A hearty congratulations and best wishes to coach Malone and his Western Conference Champs are in order. anks to stellar performances from Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, the Nuggets swept the formable LA Lakers in four straight games. Now, that is exceptional given the Lakers track record.

In the meantime, we wait to see if the Nuggets will face the Boston Celtics or the Miami Heat representing the Eastern Conference. Denver fans are hyped to be the NBA Champs. Go Nuggets!

Private dog park site gaining pup-ularity

BY MCKENNA HARFORD MHARFORD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Since Elle Ritt started renting her Wheat Ridge yard to fellow dog owners in November, she’s hosted birthday parties for pups, pooch photoshoots and doggie play groups almost every weekend.

Ritt is one of dozens of renters in the Denver metro area on a website called Sni Spot, which links people interested in sharing their yard with local dog owners who want a private fenced area to let their pups o -leash. rough Sni Spot, renters set an hourly rate per dog and time slot availability for users to book.

With two older dogs who need less exercise, Ritt said she wanted to let other dogs take advantage of her large yard and, so far, there has been no shortage of demand.

“It’s just mindblowing how frequently it’s used,” she said.

Ritt said a majority of her visitors don’t have their own yards and prefer to avoid public dog parks because of reactive or sensitive pups. e site allows users to tailor their search to t needs like a taller fence height or not having other dogs or animals visible.

Dr. Rebecca Ruch-Gallie, a 23-year veterinarian at Colorado State University’s Community Practice clinic, said the uncontrolled nature of dog parks leads to risks like ghts and disease transmission, which is why she typically recommends other ways to exercise dogs, such as daycare or private yard time.

In addition to walks and playtime, RuchGallie said some dogs need to run and all dogs bene t from exploring new routes and places.

Ruch-Gallie said she will sometimes take her pups on what she calls a “sni -ari.”

“ ey take in the world much di erently than we do, so give them those di erent scents to pick up and opportunities to see and smell di erent things,” she said. “Sometimes they just want to go, go, go and get their energy out and other times they just want to meander and take the sni s in.”

Mike Rieber, who has been renting his fenced pasture in Parker since October, said one of the best perks of sharing his yard is seeing how excited pups get to check out new scents and release their energy.

“ ey call it a Sni Spot and I never really understood how important that was to a dog, but that’s the rst thing they all do when they get here is smell everything,” Rieber said. “Especially with the repeat dogs, as soon as their paws hit the ground, boy, they’re o .”

Ritt’s experience has been similar, she said, adding that Sni Spot has been mutually bene cial, not just for the dogs, but also the humans. She’s received multiple thank you notes from visitors and attests that catching glimpses of visitors always makes her smile.

“It’s so cute to peek in the backyard and see grown men laying on their stomachs taking pictures of their puppies,” Ritt said.

Another Sni Spot user, Lyndsey Leach, who

rents her Lakewood backyard, agreed. Leach lost her own pooch three years ago but remains an avid dog-lover.  “It’s so nice when they’re comfortable and running around,” she said. “I’m always happy when they’re happy.” None of the three renters report issues with destroyed yards, rude users, neighbor complaints or unruly animals.

In addition to the positive mental health benefits, Leach said renting her yard is a convenient passive income and gives her the flexibility to be away from home if needed. Leach estimates that since she started in January, she’s had about 50 visitors and made around $400.

“I don’t really have any expenses associated with it, other than eaten tennis balls,” she joked.

Rieber said he didn’t originally think he would make much money from the app but has been happy with the extra cash. He noted the demand is only picking up in the warmer months, though he got a fair share of visitors during the winter as well.

“We’re not trying to maximize our revenue, we’re doing this more as a service for young people that have dogs and need a place that’s private,” he said.

For Ritt, her most recent month was her most successful, cashing in over $1,000, and before that, she averaged a few hundred dollars monthly.

“One of our dogs has had a ton of health issues, so it’s like SniffSpot funds her care,” Ritt said. “It truly has been a notable supplemental income.”

Five Points Jazz Festival returns for 20th year

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When saxophone player Rico Jones was just 14 years old, he got to jam alongside drummer Tom Tilton and jazz pianist Joe Bonner at Brother Je ’s Cultural Center in Denver’s Five Points neighborhood.

“Joe had performed with artists like Woody Shaw and Pharaoh Sanders,” Jones said.

“It was one of the rst times I was so close to the authentic lineage of the music. I was beyond inspired.” at was 2012. Today, Jones — a Latin-Indigenous artist who was born and raised in Denver — has been recognized with more than 10 national awards. He is one of about 40 musical artists slated to perform at this year’s Five Points Jazz Festival. e event runs from noon to 8 p.m. on June 10. It will feature 10 indoor and outdoor stages along Welton Street between 25th and 29th streets. e day kicks o with a parade led by the Guerilla Fanfare Brass Band. Attendees will also nd food vendors, a kid’s zone and artisan

“People love a great music festival,” said Sonia Rae, the cultural a airs program manager for Denver Arts & Venues, which puts on the festival. “ ere’s a powerful and rich jazz community here in Denver – some of the nest local musicians are

playing the festival.”

e festival is free and will feature a variety of jazz genres: Latin jazz, smooth jazz, soul, avant-garde, jazz roots, blues and more.

Tenia Nelson, a pianist with the Denver-based Tenia Nelson Trio — or TNT for short — served on this year’s Five Points Jazz Festival selection committee.

Nelson is looking forward to seeing all of the di erent kinds of bands performing this year, she said, “and just being around beautiful people enjoying themselves.”

“People enjoy watching live music because they get to see the bands in real time interacting with each other,” Nelson said. “When they see the bands having a great time and playing amazing music, then of course, they will also have a great time.”

Now in its 20th year, the festival draws a crowd of roughly 60,000 attendees. But its beginnings were humble. It started out with three bands on one stage in the parking lot of the Blair-Caldwell African American Research Library on Welton Street.

However, Denver’s Five Points is no stranger to jazz. Known as the Harlem of the West, the neighborhood has drawn jazz greats for the better part of a century.

Historically, Black jazz musicians would come to Denver to perform in White venues. However, they were not allowed to stay in those

parts of town because they were Black. So, they would stay in Five Points.

“ ey would stay, and play, and jam all night long,” Rae said.

She added it’s important to honor the history of jazz in Denver because it tells a story of who Denver is.

“ e history of Denver is alive and well in Five Points,” Rae said. “And jazz is alive and well in Five Points.”

Music is something that can bring people of many backgrounds together, Rae said. ose who already love jazz music will certainly enjoy the festival, but it’s also a good way to introduce people to the local jazz scene.

“Jazz is a music that is for the people by the people … People appreciate what is real, genuine and heartfelt,” Jones said. e “Five Points Jazz Festival brings that to the people. And best of all, they do it in a historical place where many of the greats of jazz music performed in the early days of the art form.”

‘Civics bee’ aims to turn corner on education

BY ERICA BREUNLIN THE COLORADO SUN

Even at 12 years old, Siram Yalavarthy sees the unbreakable thread between history and the current moment, something he’s long loved learning about in social studies classes going back to the founding of the United States.

“Learning that the past actually happened” is what Sriram said fascinates him the most. “It’s not just a story we tell every single day, and it a ects us today still.”

e seventh-grader from Drake Middle School in Arvada was crowned the winner of the rst of its kind state civics bee in May at St. Cajetan Catholic Church in Denver, where he competed against 14 other Colorado

middle schoolers. Similar to a spelling bee, the Colorado National Civics Bee put students in front of an audience to quiz them on all kinds of facts related to how government is structured and the rules that dictate how it works.

Using electronic tablets they got to keep, the students who battled against one another tackled two rounds of questions that pressed them on some of the ner details of civics: What is the name of the document that allows a visitor to the U.S. to stay for a speci c period of time? (A visa.) Which amendments all deal with some aspect of the presidency? (Twelve, 22 and 25.) With the Monroe Doctrine, the United States did what? (Warned European nations not to interfere

with a airs in the Western Hemisphere.)

e students stand out from many of their peers and even adults across the country, who largely struggle to understand government systems and remember critical components of democracy in an era when deepening political divisions have sparked battles over history curriculum and how it is taught.

e de cits in students’ grasp of civics became more apparent when the results of last spring’s National Assessment of Educational Progress — which includes state and national tests that gauge student achievement in subjects including reading, math and civics — revealed fewer students reaching pro ciency in civics. Civics

scores decreased an average of 2 points, with nearly 80% of eighth graders ranking below pro ciency on last year’s exams, the results of which were released this year. Meanwhile, students are also broadly failing in history, with 40% of eighth graders performing at the lowest level in U.S. history on 2022 exams, compared with 34% in 2018, Chalkbeat reported.

“ e time for action is now,” said Hilary Crow, vice president at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation, which launched the National Civics Bee last year with pilot programs in ve states. “We are at a crisis point, and this is the perfect time and opportunity to engage leaders, business leaders, legislators, educators

and communities all across the country to elevate civics as a priority. e strength of our democracy, of free enterprise and the future of our country depends on us.” e chamber foundation has partnered with the Daniels Fund, a Denver-based charitable foundation, to roll out civics bees across the country with the goal of creating competitions in all 50 states that culminate in a national competition, which Crow said will debut next year in Washington, D.C. is year’s round of bees started in more than 50 communities in nine states, with competitions at the local level hosted by chambers of commerce, each sending the top three nalists to a state

Colorado pushes to stop relying on rented aircraft to fight wildfires

BY JESSE PAUL THE COLORADO SUN

Colorado is doubling down on its push to rely less on rented aircraft to ght wild res with the purchase of a second helicopter capable of quickly crisscrossing the state to detect and douse ames.

Gov. Jared Polis signed a bill on May 11 allocating $26 million to buy another “Firehawk,” a converted version of the military’s ubiquitous Black Hawk helicopter. e Firehawk’s top speed is about 160 mph and it can quickly slurp up and drop 1,000 gallons of water.

When res aren’t burning, the helicopter can be deployed on search and rescue missions.

Right now, Colorado has no operational, state-owned aircraft that can drop water and retardant on res. Instead, it relies on contracts with private aerial re ghting companies to respond to blazes across the state.

Some of those air resources are pooled regionally, meaning that the rented helicopters and airplanes serve multiple states at the same time.

But that’s become an issue as climate change causes dangerously dry conditions across the Western U.S. In 2020, for instance, when

Colorado had the three largest wild res in its history, the state struggled to secure the aircraft it needed because there were also res burning in New Mexico, California and several other states.

“We need to be able to control our aerial capacity,” Polis said before signing Senate Bill 161 at Centennial Airport hangar beside Colorado’s rst Firehawk, a hulking chopper painted red and white and emblazoned in the state logo. “We do some of that through contract work. But we can also do it, which is a lot better value for taxpayers on an ongoing basis, by purchasing some equipment that is good for decades.”

State re o cials estimated earlier this year that it would cost about $2.5 million annually for an additional 150-day contract for a large air tanker, such as a British Aerospace 146. e Firehawk will operate year-round, though the state will have to hire and pay pilots and is responsible for the choppers’ maintenance.

e rst Firehawk is expected to go into service in the coming weeks once testing and nishing touches are complete. e second chopper could be ready to go as soon as next summer.

e helicopters join two single-

engine Pilatus PC-12s in Colorado’s aerial re ghting eet. But those planes can only track blazes, not put them out.

Other states have much larger wild re- ghting aircraft eets.

e California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, for instance, owns a eet of more than 50 aircraft, including a mix of airplanes and helicopters. Reuters reports that a Cal Fire aircraft can reach most res within 20 minutes.

e Washington State Department of Natural Resources owns nine helicopters that battle res.

e Alaska Department of Natural Resources also owns a number of wild re- ghting planes.

Polis said his administration doesn’t have plans to buy more Firehawks or other re ghting aircraft in the near future.

“We’re always going to analyze cost bene t,” he said. “We want to make sure that we have the air support we need when we have a re — and then we’re going to look at the most e cient way to get that.”

e Firehawks are expected to be in service for upward of three decades, though they do require a lot of maintenance.

Mike Morgan, who leads the Colorado Division of Fire Preven -

tion and Control, said the Firehawk is the most versatile tool the state could have purchased. It doesn’t need to return to an airport after dropping water on ames like a xed-wing plane. e helicopter can simply dip its snorkel in a pond or pool and quickly ll up for its next drop.

Another plus: It has an external water tank instead of carrying a bucket, meaning it can y over homes and roadways that otherwise must be evacuated when other, bucket-wielding re ghting helicopters are in use.

“ is is probably the best tool in the toolbox we can ask for,” he said.  e rst Firehawk will be stationed at Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport in Je erson County, though it can be moved around the state and positioned in areas that are forecast to have high re danger. It’s unclear where the second chopper will be based.

e restrictions and a burdensome planning process often postpone or inde nitely delay controlled burns. Fire ghters must complete multipart plans and comply with rules that can di er in each of Colorado’s 64 counties. Large burns on federal, state or county land require permits from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment to ensure they don’t violate federal clean-air regulations. And in some areas, burns are o -limits from November through February because air pollution is already high.

e end result is that only a small fraction of what needs to be burned ends up being burned. In 2020, reghters proposed burning 312,943 piles of branches and logs throughout the state but were able to do only about 18% of that work, records show. Of 88 burns proposed to consume vegetation across a large number of acres — in a forest or grassy area — only 55% were completed that year.

Extreme weather and climate change also are getting in the way of executing prescribed burns, documents obtained by ProPublica under the Colorado Open Records Act show. In 2022, a prescribed re driven by high winds and tinderdry vegetation morphed into the largest re in New Mexico’s history, with devastating consequences for residents.

In Colorado, residents grew wary of controlled burns after one escaped in 2012 and killed three people. e Lower North Fork Fire, near the foothill community of Conifer, burned 24 structures and 4,140 acres. Afterward, prescribed burning ceased as state lawmakers enacted stricter rules governing the practice.

Only about 1 in 1,000 prescribed burns spirals out of control, statistics show, but the ones that do have added to public opposition.

e push-pull of re prevention and community opposition could soon come to a head as the U.S. Forest Service, Western governors and Colorado counties ramp up prescribed burning to rid overgrown forests and open spaces of a century worth of fuel, aiming to better protect nearby communities. Federal re simulations found 500,000 buildings could now be exposed to wild re in a single year.

Public lands managers hope to treat 50 million acres with controlled burns and mechanical thinning in the next decade.

After Larry Donner, a retired re chief in Boulder, and his wife purchased their house in 1991, they installed noncombustible siding, double-paned windows and a reresistant roof, and they replaced a wood deck with agstone. Still, it burned to the ground in the Marshall Fire. He attributed the re’s spread to poor maintenance of open spaces near communities.

“ irty years ago, they mowed 20 feet around subdivisions, or they grazed and plowed grasslands — then they planted houses and they stopped,” said Donner, who gestured toward grassy Davidson Mesa as he stood in front of his partially reconstructed Louisville home. “Fuel reduction is a big thing for me. If you can keep re out of neighborhoods, you can better protect those neighborhoods.”

A New Understanding of Grassland Risk

Coloradans have always understood the threat of forest res. e state ranks rst among eight Western states for the number of acres at high risk for re, or “ resheds,” federal models show.

e Marshall Fire, however, made many residents realize that the state’s vast and populous grasslands — abutting its largest metro areas on the eastern ank of the Rocky Mountains — are also a wild re threat. Cities from Fort Collins, in the north, to Pueblo, in the south, where most Coloradans live, are surrounded by thousands of square miles of at, open space that evolved to burn every ve to 15 years.

e reshed around Boulder and the Arvada reshed to the south are among the 10 most at-risk zones from Wyoming to Nebraska, according to the U.S. Forest Service. Boulder ranked 41st in the western U.S. out of 7,688 such hazardous areas.

Around the Denver metro area, grassland acres outnumber forest acres, according to a rst-of-its-kind analysis conducted for ProPublica using wildland re data compiled by federal agencies.

is spring, wild res in grasslands and brush on the eastern slope of the Rockies, known as the Front Range, have already forced evacuations and concert cancellations in suburban enclaves.

“ e urgency of re in the county, whether in the mountains or on the plains, is very real,” said Boulder County Commissioner Ashley Stolz-

mann during a February meeting.

In the forests that blanket Boulder County’s foothills, residents are accustomed to smoke in the air. Fire ghters have burned vegetation there, primarily in the woods, since 1997. But for every successful burn, there are just as many that don’t happen, public records obtained by ProPublica show.

Each year, the Boulder County wildland team and the city of Boulder’s Fire-Rescue unit request smoke permits — required when burns on public lands could cause air quality issues — from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s Air Pollution Control Division. Many are for county- and city-managed open spaces. Some foothill areas are grassy, like the valley oor below.

e permits require contingency plans, noti cation of nearby residents and analysis of the vegetation, and are approved only when winds are deemed less likely to send smoke toward homes.

Burns aren’t allowed when the state issues air pollution emergencies or alerts for the area. And the number of high-ozone days along the northern Front Range and in the Denver metro area is increasing.

e region is out of compliance with national air quality standards.

Brian Anacker, senior manager of science and climate resilience for the city of Boulder, said his community is “trying to accelerate our prescribed re program.” But there are “barriers upon barriers” that stop that from happening.

Regulations can also work at cross purposes: Winter weather often offers the lowest risk of a prescribed burn getting out of control, but that’s also when smoke below 6,400 feet can most a ect the region’s poor air quality.

Fire ghters and state air quality regulators have begun experimenting with allowing burns in the metro Denver area during winter months.

“We are starting to look for more

and more of what we would consider o windows,” said Brian Oliver, wildland re division chief for the city of Boulder.

For example, Boulder County reghters asked to burn up to 40 acres on Hall Ranch during snow season using “additional experimental provisions.” ese included burning between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. on days when the air is clear, discussing the timing with the state meteorologist and advising state air pollution sta at least a day in advance.

Fire ghter David Buchanan last year asked regulators for permission to burn during the “high-pollution season,” when it’s typically prohibited. He said that granting the permit would allow crews to torch grassy areas and saplings when temperatures are low and there is more moisture on the ground. Doing so would minimize smoke, he added, because fuels burn “swiftly and e ciently.” State regulators granted the permit.  Boulder County’s challenges were echoed by federal watchdogs and Western governors. e Government Accountability O ce and state leaders this spring urged the Environmental Protection Agency to reconsider regulations that curtail prescribed burning in areas that aren’t in compliance with air quality standards.

Land managers told the GAO that these rules “could limit their ability” to rid high-risk areas of vegetation, investigators said in a March report. e GAO added that controlled res could lead to less smoke overall because they help prevent future wild res.

Both the rising interest in controlled burns and the di culty in conducting them are apparent at the state’s Division of Fire Prevention & Control. e agency, created after the escaped Lower North Fork Fire, requires re ghters to complete a “prescription” that assesses 23 risk factors, including how quickly fuels will burn, how likely the re is to escape, how smoke can be managed and how far the re is from homes and businesses.

Ensuring the public understands that there’s a detailed, scienti c process behind prescribed burning is key to gaining support for more controlled burns, re ghters and land managers agree.

Also included in the prescription are optimal weather conditions, including a minimum temperature for burns in grass and brush of 30 degrees and a maximum of 80 degrees; relative humidity between 5% and 40%; and wind speed between 2 mph and 15 mph.

Such conditions are becoming rarer.

Snowstorms, re weather watches and red ag warnings — alerts sent out when dry air and high, gusty winds create conditions that could rapidly spread res — forestalled prescribed burns this spring in the city of Boulder. Burning is prohibited when these warnings, issued by the National Weather Service, are in e ect.

Members of the Boulder County Fire Dept. conduct a prescribed burn on an irrigation ditch to clear it of debris on dow, April 6, 2023 outside of Boulder, Colorado. The burn was cancelled when conditions proved too wet for adequate burning. PHOTO BY CHET STRANGE

Drone soccer pilots bob, weave and score at world championships

BY JOHN RENFROW JRENFROW@COLORADOCOMMUNITUYMEDIA.C

In Incheon, South Korea, ying orbs whistle, buzz and clash in the air in an e ort to glide through hoops for points. If you’ve ever seen Harry Potter, it’s a lot like a remote-controlled, electric version of Quidditch.

An increasingly popular sport, it’s called drone soccer. Students representing Westminster High School traveled for an international battle of aerospace skills in the FIDA World Drone Soccer Championships, which hosted more than a dozen international teams between May 17-20.

Four students from WHS paired up with four SkyBlazers from Cherry Creek — who nished second nationally in 2023. ey make up the U.S. National Team. e hybrid team of Coloradans nished third in Incheon in what is essentially the World Cup of drone soccer.

Recently, the team hosted South Korean players for a friendly competition at the Colorado Convention Center. But when the championships kicked o in South Korea, the friendliness faded and things got real.

“As you’re preparing for the matches, it’s kind of friendly because everyone is trying to help each other out, especially if you don’t have the right supplies at the right time,” said Helen Tran, a WHS junior and keeper for the U.S. National Team. “But once you’re on that oor, and about to face them, it’s really competitive and it’s like ‘We’re on opposite sides right now. You’re my enemy.’”

Drone soccer is the only educational robotics competition that is also an internationally sanctioned team sport by the World Air Sports Federation.

Here’s how it works: two teams of ve players compete against one another at the same time. Each team has a keeper, a striker, and three defenders. e idea is to protect your own goal and y the striker into the other team’s hoop to score.

But students don’t just y drones. ey must build, repair, and maintain them.

ere are three three-minute sets, and winning two out of three seals the victory. Between sets, there is a three-to- ve-minute period for modifying and repairing any potential damage.

“ ey’re kind of like a For-

mula 1 team working really well together,” Kyle Sanders, vice president of development for U.S. Drone Soccer, said. “It’s really the communication and teamwork that you see in professional aviation, working on airplanes or preparing for operations.”

e sport is just now gaining traction outside of South Korea, Sanders said, where it’s been popular since 2015. But slowly, other countries are coming along. e U.S. National Team is only in its rst competitive year on the international stage, and WHS has been growing its program for three years.

“ e goal is to build aerospace programs and career pathways using this fun sport as an introduction program,” Sanders said.

Lottie Wilson, the career and technical education advisor at WHS, called it the gami cation of aerospace education. “ ey’re building them. ey’re programming them. ey’re engineering them. ey’re doing it all,” Wilson said. “It’s denitely getting kids hooked into aerospace education through gami cation.”

It’s been a surreal experience for the students, who can polish their skills and meet new people in a fun,

brand new environment that’s loved drone soccer for years.

“I hope I get to keep doing this. It’s really fun,” said senior Luis Lechuga, who is attending Metropolitan State University in the fall to study mechanical engineering. “I’m interested in doing aerospace engineering [also]. I never expected to go to South Korea, I just wanted to get involved in ying drones.”

Lechuga and the other seniors in Incheon opted to miss their own graduation to make the trip. Being able to share this experience with like-minded students from all over the world has opened new ways of thinking about aviation and aerospace science, Tran said, and they’ve picked up some tricks from the Korean players along the way.

“I’m able to learn how to communicate, especially with a language barrier. We’re still able to communicate and share ideas with each other, and basically improve together,” Tran said.

“It’s a really good and bene cial way to network. I’ve been able to befriend them through this shared passion, and so it’s just really cool.”

Since the program’s incep-

tion at WHS, interest has been through the roof, Robbie Ferguson said. Ferguson is the aerospace teacher and drone soccer coach at WHS.

“My students ask to come to practice. ey ask for extra practices all the time,” Ferguson said. “ ey really enjoy being a part of the team and everything that comes with it.”

Much of the program is graduating this year, Ferguson said, but fortunately, the middle school interest is already signi cant and continues to grow. Orchard Park Academy in Westminster is in the rst year of its drone soccer program.

e Pumas didn’t waste any time. Orchard Park nished rst among middle school programs in nationals this past season, and nished fourth overall, beating even the WHS team. Recently, Colorado Gov. Jared Polis visited Orchard Park for a visit and lesson in aerospace acrobatics.

e future of drone soccer is bright, particularly along the Front Range. Experienced middle school students will be ready to step in and contribute right away at the high school level. e

Students from the U.S. National Team battle opposing teams with high-powered drones to score points.

Coalition targets Colorado voters in e ort to phase out fracking

BY ERIC GALATAS PUBLIC NEWS SERVICE

A coailtion of grassroots groups is turning to Colorado voters in an e ort to phase out all new oil and gas leases by 2030.

Kate Christensen - an organizer with Safe and Healthy Colorado - said even after state lawmakers passed legislation mandating that oil and gas regulators prioritize the protection of public health and the environment, they continue to permit hundreds of wells - many right in the middle of highly populated areas already in violation of Environmental Protection Agency ozone pollution limits.

“And that is why we need a ballot initiative,” said Christensen, “because every other move hasn’t got us the results that we need for our climate crisis, and for our air quality, and for our water. Nothing else has worked, we have to do this.”

Leading global scientists have repeatedly warned that fossil fuels cannot continue to be extracted and burned if we are to avoid catastrophic climate change.

e Colorado Oil and Gas Association says if voters approve the measure, there will be signi cant job losses and higher fuel prices. ey argue even if permits stop, the demand for oil and gas won’t.

Christensen pointed to a recent report which found the oil and gas

natural interest in the sport sparks a furious work ethic, and the results show it.

industry in Colorado contributes less than 1% of the state’s total employment. And she said the industry’s own research shows there are ample oil and gas reserves to meet future demand.

“ e International Energy Association - not a green group, just an energy group,” said Christensen, “came out with a report last year that said we have already extracted all the fossil fuels we need to extract to make a transition to renewables by 2050.”

Christensen said setting a timeline for phasing out drilling permits is critical for communities that are dependent on fossil fuels to build an exit strategy and get the support they need to transition to the new cleanenergy economy.

If the coalition can collect 125,000 signatures to make the 2024 ballot, she said the e ort could embolden people in other states.

“ ere’s only a few people who are really pro ting o of this,” said Christensen. “Most of us are not seeing the bene t of oil and gas production. We’re just getting the asthma, we’re just getting the wild res. What this could do is encourage other states to pass ballot initiatives along the same lines.”

“I’m super proud of them. ey work really hard. ey work really well together, so that’s amazing. ey’ve just come a long way in the last couple of weeks,” Ferguson said. “ e interest level is just huge. Once you get them in, they’re hooked.”

bee hosted by each state’s chamber.

Colorado students in the Denver metro area, Arvada, Buena Vista, Craig and Pueblo put their civics knowledge to the test last month in local contests.

ree winners from each community advanced to the nal bee, hosted by the Colorado Chamber of Commerce, which wants to strengthen students’ understanding of how government functions and help them see that they will set the foundation and tone for the next decades of democracy.

“If they believe that our democracy is in trouble, and if they don’t understand how government works, then they can’t change the process, they can’t in uence the process,” said Loren Furman, president and CEO of the Colorado Chamber of Commerce.

Bee organizers at the state and national level say the task of polishing students’ grasp of civics falls on far more than educators.

“Our schools have so many responsibilities right now that this is a way to come alongside our schools

and say, ‘In our communities we have a responsibility too,’” Daniels Fund CEO Hanna Skandera said. “And we can join with our education, our schools, having families and communities and chambers help be a part of the solution.”

e rst-ever decline in civics pro ciency on last year’s NAEP exams led communities and educators alike to worry and intervene.

And while Barbara Taylor, who teaches Advanced Placement U.S. History, honors government and honors geography at Pomona High School in Arvada, is disheartened by student performance in civics, but she also sees students actively pursuing an understanding of government systems every day in her classes.

Low NAEP scores aren’t “a very accurate re ection of the interest that real kids have in their country,” said Taylor, who has been teaching for 23 years and also serves as treasurer for Colorado Council for the Social Studies.

“ ey really want to understand what’s happening to them, what we see in the community,” she added.

Rather than educating students about civics and history just through textbooks, Taylor builds stu-

dents’ knowledge by connecting their learning to the real world. at includes putting students through a legal simulation with help from University of Colorado law students, who challenge them to look at evidence and craft arguments based on school-related issues, including the question of which bathrooms should be available to kids who identify as transgender. at also includes pushing students to trace a certain topic throughout its arc of history, whether fashion, food, hairstyles or issues involving the LGBTQ+ community.

She has also seen a resurgence in interest among high schoolers studying civics that she attributes to the deep-seated division roiling communities and in aming politics at every level.

“ e divide we have in this country is in part because people don’t know how to have a civil conversation, and they’re easily intimidated by people who seem to have information and seem to know things,” Taylor said. “And because we don’t know how to talk, we stop talking. And so the consequences are dire.”

Judges peppered them with questions about their proposed solutions, which addressed the lack of a ordable housing in Colorado, the rising cost of eggs and the ways educators could discreetly help students a ected by mental health issues, among other topics.

Sriram, champion of the statewide bee, who took home a $1,000 prize, spoke of the need for civility among politicians and across the country during his presentation. His grandparents used to see the United States as a place where everyone would greet strangers and be nice to each other, he said after the competition. Now, that sense of kindness is largely fading.

“It’s still there but not as much,” Sriram said.

Runner-up Joseph Drexler, a seventh grader at Darren Patterson Christian Academy in Buena Vista, raised concerns about Cha ee County housing becoming out of reach for local residents, noting that 64% of people in the county spend more than half of their income on housing.

expensive all the houses are, and I thought, whoa, these should be less,” Joseph, 13, said after the bee.

He and Sriram were jittery with nervous excitement after spending hours looking over a study packet and rehearsing their speeches.

Joseph, who won $500, said he will use the knowledge he gained from the bee to help him one day vote, prepare for a possible career in government and educate others about civics.

“You just have to know things about the government before you can make really good choices about the government,” he said. at knowledge is key when looking both backward and forward, Sriram added.

It’s critical to study civics, he said, “so you know how our country was founded and not make the same mistakes they made in the past and make better decisions in the future.”
