Taking on American Ninja Warrior and type 1 diabetes
Thornton’s Katie Bone has set high standards in competitive climbing
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Scrambling up a sheer climbing wall or tackling a grueling American Ninja Warrior obstacle course are all challenges 19-year-old Katie Bone have taken on and mastered.
It’s not a surprise then that her type 1 diabetes has just won more barrier Bone has battled and beaten.
Bone said when she was rst diagnosed with the disease at age 11, she hardly blinked and decided the news was not going to slow her down.
“ e rst question I had for the doctor was can I climb again?” the ornton woman said. When the doctor said yes, Bone quickly turned to “I am going to gure out how I was going to manage this,” she said.
Bone went onto become a nationally-ranked speed climber, earning a spot on the prestigious Youth National Climbing Team – USA. She also made history as the youngest champion in American Ninja Warrior’s Women’s Championship.
e Ninja Warrior competition fed Bone’s need to compete in an environment that encourages both courage and athletic skill. e Ninja obstacle courses as also just plain fun to take on, Bone said.
“ e movements are so cool, there you are ying through the air, it’s just super fun,” Bone said. “ ere are also di erent movements, and they are scary, but they push you hard. It pushed me as hard as I have ever been pushed.”
Bone has su ered plenty of physical setbacks including an injury to her ACL and MCL. at did not stop her from returning to American Ninja Warrior Season 17, which will be aired in June. She also barely missed qualifying for the 2024 Paris Olympics in speed climbing.
Rough labor report for Colorado
State unemployment was worse than previously thought in 2024
BY
Colorado’s unemployment rate increased by a tenth of a percentage point nearly every month last year. en in January, the increase shot to 4.7%, up three-tenths of a point.
While it may seem like something changed in January, it wasn’t as big of a jump as you’d think.
Blame the increase on data revisions. As it does every March, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics revises the data when new information comes in, such as “new population controls, re-estimation of models, and adjustment to new census division and national control totals,” said Tim Wonhof, program manager for the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment’s division of labor standards and statistics. Still, Wonhof added, this was pretty noteworthy.
“It was a large revision,” he said in an email. “ e January 2025 unemployment rate of 4.7% is elevated compared to a year ago, but it is still below the state’s historical average of ~5.2%.”

Westminster pans letter
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Westminster City Councilors Monday night declined to give their weight toward a proposal to prompt the Je erson County Commissioners to force changes on operations at Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport.
Save Our Skies – which includes Westminster residents – wants the commissioners to implement landing fees at the airport and eliminate leaded fuel sales at the facility.
Save Our Skies also asks Je erson County to induce RMMA to avoid repetitive training operations and halt its taxiway expansion project.
Save Our Skies – SOS – has claimed that all four actions spelled out in its letter to Je erson County has led to environmental and public safety problems which have been ignored by airport management.
e letter from Save Our Skies was forwarded to Westminster City Council for its endorsement.
“Endorsing the SOS letter would demonstrate your (the council’s) commitment to protecting Westminster residents,” Westminster resident and airport critic Charlene Willey wrote in an email to the council.
“ e Westbrook Homeowners Association (398 homes) has endorsed the SOS letter. Nearly 30 Westminster residents from Green Knolls, Countryside, Walnut Grove, Westcli , and Sheridan Green have asked the Westminster City Council to also
endorse the letter,” Willey states.
“Supporting this letter would show your clear commitment to safeguarding our community,” she adds.
Beyond Westminster’s control Councilor Kristine Ireland told the council she was ready to give the letter her full backing. e airport, Ireland said, continues to expand and is seemingly paying no heed to worries about airplane tra c.
“ ere are some real concerns about airline crashes and all those ights going over people’s houses,” Ireland said. “As long as this airport gets grants it will
keep expanding…they don’t care.”
Other councilors said there is little there is little they can do to force changes at the airport. “ e letter asks for things that are beyond our control,” Councilor Sarah Nurmela said.
Councilors said they want to keep discussions going with the county and airport o cials about airport operations. e council is scheduled to tour the airport on April 5.
“I look forward to the airport discussion and being able to talk and hear what their plans are,” Mayor Nancy McNally said.
Report details Spaceport impact
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
e Colorado Air and Space Port is becoming an important economic catalyst for both Adams County and Colorado, according to a study that rates the economic impact of the state’s airports.
e facility – also known as CASP – is classi ed as a National General Aviation Reliever Airport with over 500 based aircraft and 126,000 operations in 2024. It is also FAA-licensed Horizontal Launch Spaceport and wants to position itself as a national leader in suborbital ight, aerospace research, and commercial space transportation, according to an Adams County news release.
Located in unincorporated Adams County adjacent to Aurora and six miles southeast of Denver International Airport, CASP “continues to fuel the region’s growth, o ering opportunities for business and innovators alike,” the news release states.
As evidence, county o cials point to the latest Colorado Aviation Economic Impact Study, which reports that CASP gener-
ated a staggering $213 million in total business revenues in 2023, supporting over 1,000 jobs and contributing $130.4 million in value to the state’s economy.
“CASP isn’t just making an impact, it’s shaping the future of our county and state in real time,” said Commissioner Lynn Baca, Chair of the Adams County Board of Commissioners, in the news release.
“It’s fueling growth, sparking innovation, and pushing the boundaries of suborbital space research and development,”
Baca said. “But beyond that, CASP is building a strong economic future for Adams County. e progress we’re seeing today means more stability for families and new opportunities for our young people to explore careers in aerospace and aviation, creating lasting bene ts that go far beyond the numbers.”
e Economic Impact Study, conducted by the Colorado Department of Transportation’s Division of Aeronautics, highlights CASP’s expanding role in the aviation and aerospace sectors. Of the total $213 million impact, $187.1 million stems from
Adams 12 students get day o for teachers protest
Colorado Education Association called for protest of cut in education budget
MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Adams 12 Five Star Schools were closed on ursday as hundreds of the district’s teachers have indicated they will take personal leave that day to take part in the Colorado Education Association’s planned statewide rally of educators at the State Capitol.
“Due to insu cient staing, we are unable to maintain our commitment to a safe and productive learning environment” on ursday, March 20, according to a letter sent by the district to Adams 12 parents.
e Boulder Valley School District has also closed schools on ursday for the CEA rally at the Capitol. As of Monday morning, only Adams 12 was the only district saying it is closing on ursday. Although students will not be present, ursday remains a workday for all school and district employees, the Adams 12 district states. ose not at work that day must use personal time.
According to the district, after-school athletics and activities will proceed as scheduled, unless parents hear di erently from a school. Childcare, meanwhile, will only be available for families currently enrolled in BASE.
Field trips and activities originally scheduled during the school day will not proceed unless parents hear di erently from school. No make-up day will be necessary unless the district has multiple snow days before the end of the school year, according to the district.
For the district’s charter families, ursday’s closure does not include students attending New America, Prospect Ridge, Stargate and Westgate.
According to the Colorado Education Association’s (CEA) website, the association is promoting a day of action for educators to rally at the Colorado State Capitol because “the Colorado legislature is considering an almost $150 million cut to education funding because of Governor Polis’ proposed student count averaging change. Colorado’s public schools are already underfunded by $4 billion annually, we cannot a ord to lose more. Educators, students, and families deserve better,” according to the CEA.
on-airport activities, including aerospace manufacturing, ight training, aircraft maintenance, and corporate travel. Visitor spending added another $25.9 million, further demonstrating CASP’s in uence on local businesses and tourism, according to the news release.
“ is report really highlights the in uence that the Colorado Air and Space Port has on the regional economy,” said Je Kloska, Director of CASP, in the news release. “It’s not just about giving planes another place to take o —airports act as economic engines and draw business to them. CASP is more than just a general aviation airport, it’s an access point to the region from both national and international locations which is important for business operators.
“With the spaceport side of our operation, we’re continuing to grow CASP as a destination for aerospace within the Adams County’s economy,” Kloska said. “As we keep pushing the limits of commercial space and aviation, our county is cementing its role as a leader in this fast-growing industry.”

One Large Brokerage Takes the Lead in Promoting Off-MLS ‘Private Exclusive’ Listing Networks
A few years ago, the National Association of Realtors promulgated the “Clear Cooperation Rule” making it harder for individual listing agents to have “pocket listings.”
of clients.” This, they say, allows you to:
Showcase before being market-ready
Generate early demand
Test your price and gain insights
Attract competitive offers
Those are listings which are withheld from the MLS so that the agent could sell it without having to share his or her commission with an agent representing the buyer. Doing so is a disservice to the seller, because the universe of potential buyers is substantially reduced when a listing isn’t posted where every other real estate agent and buyer can see it — that is, on the MLS.
Some brokerages with hundreds of agents are taking advantage of that rule’s one big loophole called the “Office Exclusive” listing. The bigger the brokerage, the more successful that approach can be. It allows all their broker associates to see the listing, but no agents outside that brokerage can see it. By keeping both ends of the transaction within the brokerage, that brokerage makes twice as much money.
One such large brokerage, which I’ll call Gotcha, has a page on its website promoting its “Private Exclusives.” At right is a screenshot from the top of that web page. Scrolling down, it explains Private Exclusives this way:
“Gotcha Private Exclusives are properties that are only accessible to Gotcha agents and their serious buyers. This means you can get a head start marketing your home, without accumulating any public days on market or price drops that could negatively impact its value. When you work with a Gotcha agent, listing as a Private Exclusive is the first stage of our 3-Phased Marketing Strategy designed to maximize demand and fine-tune your positioning for the best possible sale outcome.”
It describes the process as “pre-marketing,” although the company’s expectation is that the seller will sell to one of their own agents before getting to second base — listing it publicly on the MLS where over 20,000 others agents with prospective buyers can see it.
They call is a “soft launch to an exclusive audience,” exposing your listing to “a network of thousands of agents and their millions
Maintain your privacy
This approach is not only self-serving by Gotcha while preventing agents from other brokerages, including ours, from knowing about homes that our buyers might want to bid on, it also has serious Fair Housing implications, keeping less desirable populations from coming to your open houses and their agents from setting showings.
“Preserve Your Privacy,” boasts the web page: “Buying a Gotcha Private Exclusive helps safeguard your privacy by keeping your home’s photos off third-party sites — unlike publicly marketed properties, where images can stay online for years.”
This ignores the fact that a buyer can request that the agent or the MLS remove all pictures, videos and public remarks from the listing when it changes to “Closed.” I had exactly that request made of me after I sold a home in Golden to a privacy-minded buyer. A simple call to Support at REcolorado had all those pictures and videos removed immediately, and I deleted the website I had created for the home when I listed it. Just now, I Googled that address, and not a single website has anything more than the Google street view and one picture of the front porch. Even the public remarks paragraph was deleted. What is not explained by Gotcha in the way they promote their “private exclusive” program is that those listings are indeed posted on the MLS as “office exclusives” which
means that only other Gotcha agents can see that MLS listing until it is sold, at which point it becomes a publicly visible closed listing with all its pictures unless the agent removes them before changing the listing to “Closed.”
Looking at the closed listings for the Denver office of Gotcha on REcolorado, I found that only half of the listings had the pictures removed, so those pictures are on Zillow, Redfin and every other public website that displays sold listings. So much for Gotcha’s privacy promise!
The strategy is paying off for Gotcha, which benefits when both sides of a listing are sold in-house. A study for the 1,252 closings by the Denver office of Gotcha in the last 180 days shows that 64 listings were only entered as “closed” with zero days on the MLS, a sign that they were “office exclusives,” and roughly half of those were sold to agents within the same office, and 15 of them were double-ended by the listing agent. Among all MLS listings, the average percentage of listings that are double-ended is about 5%. It goes without saying that Gotcha agents are really excited that their brokerage facilitates and encourages agents to promote their off-MLS “private exclusive” process.
One of our Golden Real Estate agents lives on Lookout Mountain and showed me a flyer that he received soliciting him to list his home as a Gotcha Private Exclusive with all the selling points listed above.
Although it’s impossible to say whether sellers who fell for Gotcha’s pitch about being a “Gotcha Private Exclusive” left money on the table by not exposing their listing to at least 20 times as many buyers by going to traditional route and abiding by the intention
of the Clear Cooperation Rule, but I still feel that they are being duped into doing something that feathers the nest of Gotcha and its agents and doesn’t serve the interests of their clients, as the Realtor Code of Ethics requires. Certainly, I don’t see any warning, to prospective sellers regarding the limitations of staying off the MLS, something the Colorado Real Estate Commission encourages in Position Statement #27:
“During the negotiation of the Listing Contract, and as part of the Broker’s duty to exercise reasonable skill and care, a Broker is responsible for advising the seller or landlord “of any material benefits or risks of a transaction which are actually known by the Broker.” This includes benefits or risks of limiting a property’s market exposure…. Are the intended marketing limitations for the benefit of the Consumer or the Broker? What are the advantages and disadvantages for the Consumer? These types of marketing limitations that reduce the seller or landlord’s buyer/tenant pool... for the benefit of the Broker could be a violation of the license law because the Broker is not exercising reasonable skill and care…. [T]he Broker may be viewed by the Commission as also violating their fiduciary duties. Finally, a Broker who places the importance of receiving a commission or other Broker benefits above their duties, responsibilities, or obligations to the seller or landlord... is endangering the interest of the public.”
Not satisfied with exploiting the “Office Exclusive” loophole on the MLS, the national president of Gotcha is the loudest voice for eliminating the Clear Cooperation Rule.
Here’s How Money Is Handled at Real Estate Closings
As closing day approaches, both buyers and sellers have questions about how money is going to be handled. Let me explain.
Sellers ask:
Q. Should I bring money to the closing?
A. No. It is the title company’s job to receive and disperse all funds related to the closing. They collect the money from the buyer and the buyer’s lender and disperse funds as needed, including what’s left to the seller.
So, let’s say you have a mortgage to pay off. The closer gets a payoff figure from the lender and withholds that amount from the seller’s proceeds, plus a few extra days’ interest to cover the time between when they send the payoff and the lender receives it.
The seller will also owe commissions to one or both agents, plus property taxes pro-rated to the date of closing. There will also be a final water & sewer bill for which the closer will escrow some of your proceeds. There’s the cost of title insurance (the “owner’s policy”) and the closing fee charged by the Notary. If a loan is being paid off, there will be a small charge for obtaining and recording the release of the lender’s lien with the county clerk and recorder. Maybe the seller agreed to a concession to cover needed repairs or to buy down the interest rate on their loan.
Those and any other fees for which the seller is responsible will simply be deducted from the seller’s proceeds. The seller will not have to write any checks at closing.
Q. What about the funds which my lender has escrowed for paying property taxes and the renewal of my homeowner’s insurance?
A. Those funds can’t be brought to the closing table. You will get a check from your lender within 30 days of closing refunding the funds
that had been escrowed.
Remember to call your insurance company on the day of closing to let them know you have sold the home and to cancel your policy. You will receive a return premium check from them within 30 days of closing.
You will also receive a check from the title company refunding any escrowed funds for those extras days of interest and the money left after paying your final water bill.
Buyers ask:
Q. Can I bring a check for my down payment?
A. Typically, no. Your closer may accept a certified check if the amount is small, but expect to wire the funds not covered by your lender. Get those wiring instructions in person or over the phone, not by email or any other means. There are scammers who may send you an email with “new” wiring instructions, but immediately call the title company to get them verbally. And don’t call the phone number provided by the scammer! If you don’t already know the phone number to call, get it from your real estate agent or search online for it.
The funds should be wired the day before closing by both you and your lender, especially if it’s a morning closing. Wired funds can take as much as 3 hours to navigate the Federal Reserve system, which needs to verify that funds are not laundered from some illicit source.
All you and the seller should bring to closing are your government issued photo IDs, which are needed to Notarize your documents. You might bring your checkbook in case there are any incidentals expenses which arise or if you’ve agreed to purchase any of the seller’s furniture, etc., “outside of closing.”
Gotcha
Because of you, we ourish.
Thank you, doctors.
We honor the incredible devotion of those who choose a life of healing. Your commitment goes beyond treating patients—it’s about the countless lives you’ve touched, the care you’ve given, and the hope you’ve restored.
You’ve dedicated yourselves to understanding, healing, and protecting our health, often putting others before yourselves. For every moment spent listening, every diagnosis made, and every act of humankindness, we thank you.
Happy Doctors’ Day.
Non-profit o ers grants for period products in schools
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
A Colorado nonpro t is introducing a grant program for the state’s schools that would provide free period products to students. e one time-grant would supply pads, tampons, and dispensers to help schools meet the requirements of Colorado HB-1164, states Justice Necessary.
Justice Necessary was formed to address hygiene and period poverty and diaper needs across the state, according to the group’s website. e legislation is aimed at ensuring that no student must miss class due to lack of access to essential menstrual products, Justice Necessary states.
e one-time grant would provide dispensers and free pads and tampons and one-month bags of period products to support students over the summer of 2025 as well as the 2025-2026 school year. e grant will help schools reach the rst HB24-1164 milestone of having 25% of female and gender-neutral restrooms stocked with period products.
All Colorado school districts, individual schools and charter schools are eligible to apply. Special consideration will be given to rural schools and those with a large population of students receive free and reduced lunches, according to Justice Necessary.
Last year, Gov. Jared Polis signed HB241164, which makes modi cations to the
Menstrual Hygiene Grant Program to expand support to rural and underserved districts.
“Periods don’t wait – and this important law ensures that Colorado students can access the menstrual products they need, when they need them,” said Rep. Brianna Titone, D- Arvada, a key backer of the bill, in a 2024 news release. “Without access to menstrual products, our students risk missing out on valuable learning time and can experience emotional distress. Our new law makes menstrual products free and accessible in schools to Colorado’s teens.”
Rep. Jenny Willford, D-Northglenn said in the news release that “67 percent of U.S. students miss valuable school time due to a lack of necessary period products, and the numbers are even higher for low-income and students of color,” said Willford.
“Our important bill helps combat period poverty in Colorado by making menstrual products free and accessible in middle school and high school bathrooms,” she said. “Our students deserve to learn, grow and thrive without the added stress of nding and a ording period products –and this new law does just that.” e bill ensures that every student across the state can go to school without worrying about when your period might arrive, or if you have the products you need to manage it,” said Diane Cushman Neal, founder and president of Justice Necessary, in the 2024 news release.

Throughout Northern Colorado, you can see Aims Community College billboards boasting a surprising statistic that has received much attention: “91% of Aims students graduate without debt.”
One reason many learners are not burdened with student loans is that tuition at Aims averages 50% less than nearby two-year schools and 80% less than area four-year institutions. Additionally, the new Aims Tuition Promise initiative makes higher education tuition-free for many Coloradoans. Aims factors in a combination of federal, state, and institutional aid and scholarships to pay tuition. After those programs are applied, Aims makes up the difference.
Affordability is just one aspect of the Aims story. The College emphasizes inclusivity, accessibility, student-focused learning, state-of-the-art facilities and small class sizes.
Since 1967, the College has established its presence in Northern Colorado with locations in Greeley, Fort Lupton, Windsor, and Loveland. Aims empowers learners to achieve their academic and career goals by offering more than 200 degree and certificate programs to help students prepare to enter the workforce or transfer to a four-year school. Aims equips students to excel in numerous fields, including healthcare, skilled trades, business, education, public safety, agriculture, aviation, arts, sciences and more.
The College has recently seen a notable increase in enrollment in the Fall 2024 semester, with numbers indicating a more than 20% rise compared to last year’s figures. This is the most significant enrollment jump that Aims has seen in a post-COVID world.
“We’re excited that so many students are choosing Aims to begin or continue their education,” said Dr. Larry Pakowski, Vice President of Student Engagement, Inclusion & Success. “More and more people are discovering the hidden gem that is Aims.”
“Not Your Mom and Dad’s Community College”
Aims invests in the holistic student experience, from connecting through activities to using state-of-the-art technology to foster advanced education and hands-on learning on equipment used in the work world.
Pakowski believes when people come to campus and see the facilities and technology available, they change their perceptions about community colleges and Aims. He had recently heard a parent at orientation say, “It’s not your mom and dad’s community college.”
Aims offers a wide array of co-curricular activities, campus events and student resources to provide an enriching college experience. Traditional service and honor society organizations are on campus. There are also groups focused on career interests, identity groups, or shared interests, like video games.
Innovation and Student-First Focus
The Aims Welcome Center and Student Commons are the beating heart of student engagement outside the classroom. These vibrant spaces are designed to help students acclimate to college life and make lifelong connections. These spaces host college and community events to bring people together.
Aims invests in state-of-the-art equipment and learning tools to provide hands-on experience for students in career and technical education courses. Below are a few examples of technology in action.
•An Anatomage Table is a technologically advanced 3D anatomy visualization and virtual dissection tool for anatomy and physiology education.
•Automotive, welding and nurse aid students learn using virtual reality training equipment.
•Future truck drivers will practice on a CDL simulator, and tomorrow’s pilots and air traffic controllers train on aviation simulator technology before flying.
•In the newly expanded Windsor Campus, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) students can access a drone fabrication and design lab, while public safety students can replicate real-world scenarios at the Sim City.
•Ed Beaty Hall is home to experiential learning with a theater, radio station, TV studio, green-screen room, surround sound studio and videoediting booths.
•The greenhouse on the Fort Lupton Campus offers Aims agriculture students an indoor space for yearround, hands-on learning.
•The Community Lab is a maker space open to all Aims students and the community. Students use the lab to work on assignments for their classes, such as building a model for a diorama, printing large-scale posters, and producing elements of a multimedia art project. Technology includes 3D printers, laser cutters, soldering equipment and much more.
•Alquist 3D, an innovative 3D printing construction company, is partnering with Aims to incorporate its technology into the curriculum and train the workforce. An online non-credit online certificate program is open to anyone wanting to learn more about the industry. This online course is the first step in formalizing workforce development and training in 3D construction and infrastructure printing. Future plans include hands-on classes with this technology.
Management Dana Kohler attributes part of the surge in enrollments at Aims to the College’s faculty, staff and administrators. “There are a lot of really, really good people at Aims who are trying to support students and help them do the right thing. When we all do that together, the students are the ones that benefit from that.”
Aims 2024 graduate Ixel Macias believes the education she receives at Aims boosts intellectual rigor. “My professors challenged my way of thinking. I’m challenged much more than I was at previous schools, in the best way possible,” she said. Ixel feels like her instructors keep pushing her to climb to something bigger and better. Even though they encourage her to take it to the next level, she still feels comfortable asking questions and gaining further understanding of her learning.
This level of support is also evident outside of the classroom. Aims offers many services to foster success as a college student and beyond. This includes advising, disability access services, counseling services and more. Aims was among the first higher education institutions to receive the Hunger-Free Campus designation by the State of Colorado. By helping our students manage the critical issue of food insecurity, they can succeed and meet their individual goals with muchreduced stress.
The Learning Commons is another resources dedicated to student success. It includes academic support such as library services, tutoring, online learning support and technology assistance. Aims students can check out laptops, hotspots, and tablets to help them with their studies.
All of this builds a culture of success at Aims. This leads learners to thrive in moving into their next steps, whether it be going into the workforce or continuing in their education.
After graduation, 54% of Aims students continue their education by transferring to four-year institutions. Those looking to attend the University of Northern Colorado can streamline this journey with the Aims2UNC program. Other programs, like an articulation agreement with the Colorado School of Mines, create a formalized pathway for student transfer.
The Transfer Services team on campus is here to prepare students for their next destination.
Aims also get many of our learners into high-demand fields like healthcare, trades and technology. Nine months after graduating from Aims, 80 percent of students are employed, contributing to the workforce. Career Services at Aims offers programs to help students find jobs to start their careers.
Innovation and Expansion on the Horizon
“We’re continuing to do things to improve the student experience. There are greater things to come down the road,” Pakowski said.
The 2024-2027 Strategic & Tactical Plan, recently approved by the Aims Board of Trustees, outlines the direction for the College’s future growth. Among the planned projects is the opening of the Student Health and Wellness Center in 2026.
Planning for the new Workforce Innovation Center is also in progress. The project creates a supportive environment to help new businesses, ideas or projects flourish. It will provide production space for technology, manufacturing, and more. Aims students will benefit from hands-on experience with leading-edge technology and business development processes.
Additionally, Aims Community College plans to open a new Aircraft Maintenance Training Center along with the launch of an Airframe and Powerplant Mechanic degree program in January 2026 in Loveland.
Efforts are also underway to improve veteran education services and achieve recognition as a Military Friendly School. Several years ago, Aims was designated a Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) and is intentionally furthering programs to support this population.
“The plan shows all the things that we are doing to improve the student experience and student success. That’s why students are choosing to come here,” Pakowski added. “Those things have created much buzz and excitement for us.”

After the struggle comes the story
“When you are in the middle of a story it isn’t a story at all, but only a confusion; a dark roaring, a blindness, a wreckage of shattered glass and splintered wood; like a house in a whirlwind, or else a boat crushed by the icebergs or swept over the rapids, and all aboard powerless to stop it.” Margaret Atwood, “Alias Grace”
I came across this Atwood quotation from her novel this week while listening to Daniel Pink’s book, “When.” It was no more than the introductory quotation for a chapter on midpoints in work, life, and projects but the words resonated for me. Although not the intent of either author, Atwood’s words perfectly capture what happens when we let our struggles control us. Following my MS diagnosis in 2009, I could not have described more accurately the chaotic helplessness I felt. I believe all who have faced a signi cant struggle understand this. e feeling is dark, confusing and overwhelming, and the direction up is not clear in the midst of the turmoil.
WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT
After reading those words and pondering the ideas she so perfectly framed for me, I discovered there was more to the quotation. Atwood, in her novel, goes on to say… “It’s only afterwards that it becomes anything like a story at all. When you are telling it, to yourself or to someone else. “
I was mesmerized by the beauty of Atwood’s word choice. As I dove into her words and moved beyond the de nition of chaos into the resolution she describes, it sparked a realization about my struggles.
I recognized that the road out of “the wreckage of shattered glass and splintered wood” comes with the empowerment of understanding that the “afterwards” is not at the end of our life or even at the end of our struggle it is at the mo-
ment when we decide we will be the author of our story and that circumstances will no longer write the narrative.
Let me explain a little bit more about what I mean. While we will never control the circumstances of our struggle, when we understand that the events that weaken our bodies, tragedies that rupture our families, or happenings that change our circumstances are not the author of our story we begin to change.

Uncertainty is best way to describe state budget woes
It was bad enough to nd the state budget projections for scal year 2025-2026 to be underwater to the tune of $1.2 billion. en the “Trump/Musk Chaos” came into play freezing billions of dollars which were already approved by Congress - along with thousands of federal government employees getting the axe. Federal funding accounts for approximately 30% of state expenditures with most of it going toward MEDICAID and other safety net programs such as food stamps. Also, the “on again/o again” tari s by the president add a further element regarding higher costs and a possible recession.
Currently, the Colorado O ce of State Planning and Budgeting believe there is a 40% chance of a recession this year. Such “double uncertainty” plays havoc for budget-makers who are the Joint Budget Committee and sta . Colorado has a complicated system to maneuver especially with the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights. To help put things in perspective, projections had shown a $108 million surplus versus the $1.3 billion surplus from last year.
Now, lawmakers may have to tap into the state’s General Fund to pay for recently passed property tax cuts. Also, no one knows for certain the magnitude of Medicaid payments which have grown to approximately 33% of the state budget. To further exacerbate the Medicaid problem, Governor Polis has indicated that federal cuts to Medicaid could impact 400,000 Coloradoan enrollees. Furthermore, most legislators hold funding for K-12 to be sacrosanct. It will be next to impossible to avoid cutting Medicaid as well as school funds.
Eyes are on potential targets
e popular retro Colorado license plates (especially the black ones) perhaps have been too popular for their own good. Fees from all specialty license plates generate $30 to $40 million annually. e funds are earmarked for disability services along with grants to various
CROSS CURRENTS
organizations providing such services.
historic Westminster Grange as a part of the contract.
Federal funds for a ordable housing
However, the Joint Budget Committee has their eye on possibly sweeping the funds into the General Fund to reduce the funding gap.
Also, the popular program that reduces property taxes for seniors who have lived in their homes for at least ten years is a tempting reduction for the 2025-2026 budget year. I previously wrote about the free school breakfast and lunch program for all students that may end up as a ballot question or two this coming November. e voter approved initiative, which carves out $350 million for law enforcement enhancements, is perplexing to the Budget Committee as to what to do with this new expenditure. Fortunately, the approved ballot language allows exibility on how much is required to start this new funding.
Next step underway on 73rd avenue tavern
e City of Westminster sta is moving ahead with the next step in the process regarding the desired conversion of the former Rodeo Supermarket to a local tavern.
Previous Harris Park neighborhood surveys have consistently shown a desire for a restaurant in the historic business area with a couple of previous unsuccessful attempts at making it happen. Recently, the sta hired the rm of WCG after receiving 15 bids from companies interested in the rehab/conversion project. e scope of work at this phase is to development cost estimates and timelines prior to any decision regarding actual construction. It includes rehabbing the former grocery store and bringing the building up to current building codes. Inside nishes would be the responsibility of the tenant.
ere would also be work done on the
e contractor WCG previously did work on a number of similar projects including the well-known Stanley Marketplace in Aurora. According to sta , once the cost estimating and a timeline to do the work are determined, sta would seek further direction from city council.
e rehab e ort has competing forces at play. ere is the historical/sentimental force versus the business/economic development approach. To date, no cost bene t analysis has been performed on the project which would be helpful to see if the city’s investment would be paid back over time.
National Parks set a record
e White House memorandum which was sent to all National Parks Service Superintendents instructed them to play down the record setting attendance at all National Parks in calendar year 2024. It speci cally stated no press releases about the record-setting attendance from last year.
I guess the Trump administration didn’t want the public to shake their heads and ask why 1,000 NPS employees had recently been red. With attendance at a combined 331.9 million among all national parks, which was up 2% from 2023, why would anyone be laying o any employees let alone 1,000 individuals? is type of stupidity simply sets up failure.
It may make Elon Musk and his raiders look good momentarily on their spread sheets, but it will only cause problems, failure and a true disservice to the American public.
As you may have previously read, our own Rocky Mountain National Park is no exception to the personnel cuts. In spite of 4,154,349 people visiting and enjoying Colorado’s No. 1 national park last year, the park will have to likely provide service to more public attendance with fewer resources.
Stupid, stupid, stupid!
In what could turn out to be wishful thinking, Adams County o cials have announced expected federal funding for a ordable housing in the combined amount of $2.4 million. is includes $1.3 million from the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program and $1.1 million from the Home Investment Partnerships (HOME) program through the Housing and Urban Development Department.
While these are small amounts in the overall e ort to resolve the a ordable housing issue, they are important funds. ey can be used to leverage other funds toward various forms of housing assistance.
Types of projects include new a ordable housing developments, energy efciency improvements, down payment assistance and senior or transitional housing among others.
Maiker Housing Partners, which is the public housing authority for Adams County, points out that the Denver Regional Council of Governments has projected Adams County to be the fastest growing county in Colorado over the next 20 years in both population and employment. With a current population of over 500,000 people, current census data shows that 35% of households do not earn su cient income to pay for a twobedroom apartment at fair market rent. e county’s housing needs assessment in the 2020-2024 plan showed over 20,000 households in Adams County were considered “severely cost burdened.” Such statistics show the magnitude of the a ordable housing problem. With the Trump Administration cutting budgets, hopefully the $2.4 million will be available to take a small step toward partially solving the problem.

Activist Jeanette Vizguerra detained by ICE
Immigration o cials say she faces deportation
BY JENNIFER BROWN THE COLORADO SUN
Two days after detaining a well-known Denver immigrant rights activist, federal o cials responded to public outcry by calling Jeanette Vizguerra a “convicted criminal alien” and laying out her 16year legal saga to attempt to stay in the country.
Vizguerra, who spent three years living in a Denver church to avoid deportation, was arrested March 17 while on a break from her job at a Target. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement were quiet about the arrest until March 19, when they said Vizguerra was picked up “without incident” and “will remain in ICE custody pending removal from the United States.”
Vizguerra, 53, entered the United States illegally in El Paso, Texas, in 1997, according to federal o cials. In 2009, she was pulled over in Arapahoe County and authorities found that she had used documents that included a false Social Security number. e mother of four, including three children born in the United States, has been ghting deportation efforts ever since.
“Vizguerra is a convicted criminal alien from Mexico who has a nal order of deportation issued by a federal immigration judge,” ICE said in a news release, its rst comment on the detention that stirred anger and panic within the immigration community. “She illegally entered the United States near El Paso, Texas, on
THWAITES
Dec. 24, 1997, and has received legal due process in U.S. immigration court.”
News of Vizguerra’s detention set o a restorm of comments from Democrats, including Gov. Jared Polis and members of Congress. Denver Mayor Mike Johnston called it a “Putin-style persecution of political dissidents.”
After Vizguerra’s arrest by the Arapahoe County Sheri ’s O ce in 2009, she was picked up by ICE on an immigration detainer. She was released on bond after two weeks in detention, and later convicted in Arapahoe County of driving without a license and not having insurance.

HURT
Jeanette Vizguerra ROSSANA LONGO BETTER
GRAND JUNCTION — County Road 46 meanders around the northern edge of Rangely, curving next to the White River before bending toward the oil and gas infrastructure that’s a major part of the town’s identity.
One piece of industrial equipment — a decadesold, 75-foot-tall water tank — looks right at home on CR 46. But e Tank Center for Sonic Arts isn’t part of the oil and gas industry. It’s a renowned recording space for music and other performing arts with a oneof-a-kind reverb and echo that signer Cameron Beauchamp describes as the space collaborating with you.
“If I’m singing a long tone that would last 20 seconds, I can take a breath in the middle and you won’t notice it at all in the room, because the room carries your voice for so long,’’ he said.
His vocal ensemble, Roomful of Teeth, has recorded two projects at e Tank, and rely on thousands of dollars of National Endowment for the Arts money to create their art, year in and year out.
Artists and small endeavors like e Tank are concerned about the future, as many of their projects depend on NEA grants directly. e NEA was one of the many programs thrown into chaos during the Trump administration’s short-lived federal funding pause earlier this year. Future funding is uncertain.
President Donald Trump previously called to eliminate federal arts funding, and the Heritage Foundation, the conservative think tank behind Project 2025, has called NEA endowments “wasteful.”
e Tank also receives money from Colorado Creative Industries, the state arts and culture o ce. at o ce has a total budget of $4.2 million for 2025. e
NEA contributed $948,000 to the budget, according to the Colorado O ce of Economic Development, of which CCI is a part.
Governor Polis and the state legislature increased funding for CCI last year, possibly making Colorado eligible for more federal money, but it’s too early to know what NEA funding will look like next year.
NEA and CCI also provide funding to organizations like the Cleo Parker Robinson Dance company in Denver, the Blue Sage Center for the Arts in Paonia and a program that develops new American plays at the Creede Repertory eatre, located in the town of less than 300 people tucked in Colorado’s San Juan mountains.
It’s not just the former Rio Grande railroad equipment that makes e Tank special -- it’s rural Colorado.
“ e Tank couldn’t be anywhere else. It’s a very sensitive instrument for sound, if it were next to the freeway, no one would ever go in there. It’d be a howling mess,” said James Paul, executive director of e Tank.
Paul is counting on continued funding from NEA
for a residency program at e Tank during which CU Boulder students will use the space to record their work before performing at the university’s Black Box Experimental Studio.
For a few days in January, when the Trump administration froze federal grants and loans, the check for that residency program wasn’t going to be paid. e freeze was rescinded in late January, and the graduate students have gotten underway on their recording.
Paul and Beauchamp both said arts funding is always in a state of uncertainty, regardless of the administration, but said there’s so much to lose if the creative ecosystem created by these grants is severely reduced or taken away altogether.
Su Teatro, the performing arts center focusing on Latino culture on Santa Fe Drive in Denver, is part of that larger creative community, receiving funding to put on a play from Knoxville artist Linda Parris-Bailey. at funding, an NEA grant, was $15,000. SEE ARTS FUNDING, P11

ARTS FUNDING
“In the end the biggest loss is to the country, as so much of the texture and beauty that makes us interesting and inspiring will disappear. Some people think they are silencing the ‘others,’ but inevitably in silencing the NEA we will silence ourselves,” wrote Tony Garcia, executive artistic director at Su Teatro, in a statement to Rocky Mountain PBS.
Garcia says that funding hasn’t been cut. ere’s a chance it could be, as NEA now requires grant applicants to abide by an executive order that targets anyone
promoting diversity, equity and inclusion.
Hundreds of artists signed a protest letter against the new rules in February. Last week, the ACLU led suit against the federal arts agency about a similar rule that says grant applicants can’t promote “gender identity” in their art.
Cleo Parker Robinson Dance has a long history with the National Endowment for the Arts; Robinson was on the National Arts Council in the 90s and early 2000s. is scal year, the dance company received a $25,000 grant for their 55th anniversary season.
“So much of who we are and the notoriety and what allows us to do our arts and education work is really because of the quality of dancers that we have and the type of projects that we’re able to do with support from the
NEA,” said Malik Robinson, CEO of CPRD.
In Rangely “a multi-level chandelier of microphones” hung 30 feet above Beauchamp and company as they recorded in e Tank last year, for an album where each song is sung in the tuning frequency of a di erent planet in the solar system.
“Governments on our planet that support the arts in a meaningful way have a great respect for humanity, and for kindness, and for beauty,” said Beauchamp. “Some countries really succeed at this and some don’t at all.” Rocky Mountain PBS multimedia journalist Carly Rose contributed to this report.

Colorado Early Colleges (CEC) 2025 SCHOOL OF CHOICE
Colorado Early Colleges (CEC) is a network of tuition-free public charter schools, providing Colorado families with accessible, flexible, and individualized learning and a direct path to debt-free college degrees and other industry credentials.
Since the doors of our first high school campus opened in 2007 in Colorado Springs, Colorado Early Colleges and our accredited college partners have been committed to creating a community of lifetime learners and building a culture throughout our network of schools that fosters academic, career, and personal success for every student, and do so at zero tuition-cost to them and their families.
CEC now has campus locations all across
Colorado, including local high school campuses in Aurora, Castle Rock, and Douglas County North. CEC Online Campus is also our online learning option, open to families anywhere in Colorado, also at zero-cost.
Our schools work in partnership with local community colleges and universities, offering students the chance to take college-level courses, both on and off campus. The goal is to create a pathway that allows students to graduate high school with a competitive edge and ready to enter the workforce upon graduation. Through CEC, students can earn college degrees, industry certifications, and 60 or more college course credits while simultaneously earning their high school diploma.
Why choose Colorado Early Colleges?
Flexible Learning Options: CEC offers accessible, flexible and individualized learning, recognizing that each student has unique academic needs and personal goals. Students work with their advisors on an academic plan that is right for them and aligns with their career aspirations. This
flexibility enables students to work at their own pace, challenging themselves with advanced coursework when ready, while also receiving the support they need to succeed.
Career Pathways and Technical Education: CEC offers career pathways and technical education in a variety of industries. These programs incorporate curriculum that aligns with industry standards that leads to an industry recognized credential so that students may be prepared to enter the workforce after high school. Career Pathways in health science, engineering, construction, IT, aviation, multimedia and more are available at CEC (may vary by campus location).
Free Tutoring: CEC offers free tutoring at its campuses to ensure that students have the support they need to succeed academically. This support is very valuable for students balancing high school and college work, as it ensures they never have to face academic struggles alone and can receive the help they need to excel.
Money Saved: By earning college credits while in high school, students can save a considerable amount of money upon graduation. Students graduate from high school with a head start on their college education, potentially reducing the time spent in college and the associated tuition costs. For many students, this is a crucial financial benefit, and takes the pressure off students and families when it comes to higher education.
Since 2007, alumni of CEC enter the workforce with valuable skills and experience gained through their time here, and have gone on to have exceptional careers.
“I think the most impactful thing CEC offered to me was the flexibility. I from the start knew I didn’t want to follow the traditional route. I didn’t want to go to college and spend a bunch of money. CEC offers a head start on college, but also offers a head start on other career options. I always was interested in construction but knew nothing about it. Being able to attend trade school at such an early age got my foot in the door, and helped me get my first job in construction as a deck builder. At this point, I was 16 working full-time for a construction company and attending night classes at Red Rocks Community College. No other school offers that kind of freedom and flexibility, and so that was by far the most impactful thing CEC was able to offer me.” – Mason R., CEC Castle Rock graduate
CEC is open to all students, regardless of background or skill-level. Our schools are now enrolling for the upcoming school year, so visit our website for upcoming informational meetings and school tours so you can see for yourself how CEC can be the right fit for you and your family.
Women’s soccer team plan location for future stadium
BY PAOLO ZIALCITA DENVERITE
e National Women’s Soccer League team that is coming to Denver is still unnamed, but the question of where it will play has been answered.
e team will build a stadium and “recreational district” at Sante Fe Yards, a planned development adjacent to the Broadway Station light rail stop at Santa Fe Drive and Interstate 25.
“ is will be the largest overall investment in a women’s professional sports team in history,” Denver NWSL controlling owner Rob Cohen said in a press release.
e new stadium will open in 2028. e team, set to debut in 2026, will play at a yet-to-be-announced temporary site until then.
Renderings for the stadium show a 14,500-seat, three-sided arena surrounded by a park and mixed-use development. e design was led by architecture rm Populous.
e land will be purchased by both the club and the city, according to e Denver Post. City property records for the sites show the properties are valued at about $24 million.
Any land acquisition by the city would have to be approved by Denver City Council, and a portion of the property will need to be rezoned.
More about the site
e stadium will be built at the southern border of Denver’s Baker neighbor-
hood, near the Broadway on-ramp to I-25. at area has been at a crossroads for years. While three light rail lines connect to the nearby RTD station — making it a promising location for a dense, walkable and transit-oriented neighborhood — attempts at that kind of development have slowed.

First-of-its-kind program launches at Children’s Hospital Colorado
BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SGLASSMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
ree years ago, Nevaeh Zamora was running cross country as a high school freshman at Pinnacle Charter School in ornton when her body gave out. Malnourished and overtrained, she tore her hip exor, an injury that sidelined her and forced her to reevaluate everything she thought she knew about fueling her body.
“I went to eating only one meal a day because I thought, ‘Oh, the smaller runners are the ttest and the fastest, and that’s going to get me to that next point.’ And it ended up just running me to injury,” Zamora said.
at injury ultimately led her to the Female Athlete Program at Children’s Hospital Colorado, where she worked with sports medicine specialists, a nutritionist and a physical therapist to heal physically and mentally.
“Without the Female Athlete Clinic, I would not be where I am today,” Zamora said. “ ey de nitely took the naarrative that food was bad and shifted that completely. Without them, I don’t think I’d be graduating this year.”
Now, the Sports Medicine Center at Children’s Hospital Colorado is home
to a rst-of-its-kind resource for young female athletes. Launched last fall, the Female Athlete Program takes a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to athlete health, one that goes beyond injury treatment to address nutrition, menstrual health, and long-term wellness.
Aubrey Armento, a pediatric sports medicine doctor, marathon runner and advocate for young female athletes, leads the program.
Armento said she battled with underfueling and missed periods during high school and college, giving her rsthand insight into how these challenges a ect performance and long-term health. As a result, she created a specialized program that not only treats female athletes but also helps prevent these issues before they start.
“We bring together a sports dietitian and an adolescent gynecologist, which many programs don’t have because we know female athlete health isn’t just about one issue,” Armento said.
According to her, one of the most signi cant risks for female athletes is low energy availability, which refers to a mismatch between how much energy an athlete burns and how much she consumes. “If an athlete doesn’t have enough energy to support normal body functioning, it can lead to what’s called the female athlete triad, “ Armento said. “So in response to that, we can see an athlete lose their period, have infrequent periods or delayed starts of their period.”

“Managing my diabetes properly has helped me live my daily life,” she said. “I just try and focus on eating food that makes me feel good.”
Insulin dependent
According to Mayo Clinic, type 1 diabetes, which usually appears in childhood, is a chronic condition that can be caused by genetics or some viruses.
“In this condition, the pancreas makes little or no insulin. Insulin is a hormone the body uses to allow sugar (glucose) to enter cells to produce energy,” the Mayo Clinic explains.
WebMD says that people who are diagnosed with type 1 diabetes can live a long, healthy life.
“Keeping a close eye on your blood sugar levels will be key. Your doctor will give you a target range, and making healthy choices daily will help you stay within that range. It’s also important to know the symptoms of very high or low blood sugar, and how to treat them,” WebMD states.
Bone said her use of a Dexcom G7 CGM system, a xed to her arm, makes it easier to monitor her blood sugar levels and manage her diabetes. e small device provide continuous glucose readings every ve minutes, allowing users to see their glucose levels in real-time on a compatible smartphone, smartwatch or

“Actually, I can eat just about anything because Dexcom gives me good information about food,” she said.
“I just want people to know that, if you have type 1 diabetes that doesn’t mean you can’t do the things you want to do,” she said. “It’s about good management and getting the right information.”

El Paso, Adams top counties for speeding citations in school zones
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

CORRECTIONS
Colorado Trust for Local News asks readers to make us aware of mistakes we may have made.
Email linda@cotln.org if you notice a possible error you would like us to take a look at.
In all, Colorado State Troopers in 2024 cited almost 1,220 people
for speeding in construction or school zones.
“Kids, neighbors and road workers count on all of us to care about other humans when they enter these spaces. Currently, too many motorists are failing these vulnerable populations,” said Col. Matthew C. Packard, chief of the Colorado State Patrol in a news release. “A driver should never assume people will not be present in these lowspeed zones, no matter the day of the week or time of day. Follow the law because people’s lives depend on you.”
Speeding is a common type of aggressive driving, and it can happen on neighborhood streets as well as busy four-lane highways, Packard said.
“Speeding can be habit forming, but it doesn’t make it excusable,” said Packard. “When you don’t drive cautiously and lawfully in school and work zones, you display extreme indi erence to your neighbors and community.”

LABOR REPORT
Everything rose — the number of adults in Colorado’s labor force, the number employed and the number unemployed. More people joined or rejoined the state’s workforce in January, putting the state’s labor force participation rate at 68%, the sixth highest nationwide.
e revisions led Colorado to change its average unemployment rate in 2024 to 4.3%, from 3.9%. Wonhof gave no explanation for the increase other than it’s the result of the usual data benchmarking process. Colorado tied with Alaska for seventh highest jobless rate in the U.S.
e increase in January runs counter to
Colorado’s recent past, at least compared to the national trend. Colorado’s jobless rate had been lower than the U.S. for most of the past decade and most of the past three years. As Colorado’s unemployment rate rose in January, the U.S. went the other direction, falling a tenth of a point to 4%.
Caitlin McKennie, director of research at Common Sense Institute, a conservative think tank in Greenwood Village, called the opposing direction “signi cant.”
“For a considerable amount of time we have seen Colorado outpace the nation in terms of lower unemployment levels,” McKennie said in an email. “Colorado has boasted lower unemployment levels relative to the U.S. averages in nearly all state reports for years. We don’t know just yet whether this is a data bug or a true indictment of Colorado’s job growth.”
How unemployment rates are determined e monthly unemployment rate isn’t based on how many people le for unemployment bene ts each month, since some folks run out of bene ts before nding a new job. e rate is based on the Current Population Survey by the BLS and U.S. Census Bureau. It surveys about 59,000 households nationwide every month, asking questions of the whole household about their work status. It has an average response rate of 75%, one of the highest for a government survey.
e unemployment rate is essentially an estimate of how many working-age adults are unemployed compared to the labor force.
As new data from other sources comes in — including the Quarterly Census of
2025 SCHOOL OF CHOICE
Employment and Wages, which employers must share employee counts and wages for state unemployment eligibility — revisions occur. e BLS suspended Colorado’s QCEW data last fall to investigate data quality concerns but resumed publication last month after issues with the state’s overhaul of its unemployment system were addressed.
e additional data helps provide a more complete understanding of local economies, down to the city. Otherwise, there’s a high chance that very few people, if anyone, was surveyed in any given city in Colorado, said Brian Lewandowski, executive director of the Business Research Division at the University of Colorado Leeds School of Business.

LABOR REPORT
He uses an anecdote to help people better understand local unemployment rates. In a city like Westminster, the BLS may have surveyed 13 people or zero people for any given month. But the city is still assigned an unemployment rate because it has more than 25,000 people. (Westminster’s estimated December unemployment rate was 4.9%.)
“I think that’s sort of remarkable when you think about how small that sample likely is for a place like Westminster,” he said. “It’s a handful of people. And the same for Boulder. It just demonstrates how they’re using a large sample (at) a national level
but they’re inferring a lot about local areas.” e latest revision put Colorado’s unemployment rate higher than the U.S. for nearly the entire year, except for February when the two were the same.
January’s rising unemployment rate
Since data is always getting revised, economists caution about using a single month’s number, like January’s 4.7%.
“But is it exactly 4.7%? at’s immaterial,”
Lewandowski said. “It’s elevated and it’s been rising. … I hesitate to say this out loud but it’s sort of like a recession threshold. I look at it creeping up to 4.7% and I’m like, we’ve got to keep an eye on it.”
e other aspect is that after the revisons, there are now more people in Colorado’s labor force, so it’s not just about people losing a job. With growth in the labor force, there’s
more people working, possibly creating a tighter labor market.
McKennie shared data from labor research rm Lightcast, which estimated that Colorado employers posted 1.3 million unique job postings last year while there were 630,531 active job seekers in the state.
“While labor force participation and job growth are both strong in 2025, it is likely that the state’s labor market continues to be tight — with a mismatch between what employers are looking for and the available talent,” McKennie said.
January’s increasing rate in Colorado is still something to watch. During the month, industries seeing the biggest job gains were private education and health services, up 2,500 jobs. e government sector was up 2,100 jobs compared with December.
But the month also saw a higher than
usual loss of jobs in the leisure and hospitality industry, which was one of two sectors with job losses of more than 1,000.
Wonhof said that while this industry, which includes hotels and restaurants, tends to see slight job gains in January, it’s di cult to pinpoint a speci c reason for the monthly decline.
However, he said, “in ation for food and beverage in the Denver MSA (our best proximate estimate for in ation in the state) has been ticking upward since September 2024, which could be dampening demand and therefore impacting hiring for the sector.”
According to the revised data, the state’s leisure and hospitality sector has shed 3,600 jobs since October. is story was printed through a news sharing agreement with e Colorado Sun, a journalist-owned nonpro t based in Denver that covers the state.
