MY NAME IS

ZACK CONNER

Debater, musician, scholarship winner Growing up in a candy factory My grandpa started the Mountain Man Fruit and Nut Company, so I basically grew up in the warehouse. My siblings and I used to ride our bikes through the warehouse when we were little. I always had the best contributions to parties because I had the inside hook-up.

Seeing both sides I’m one of the captains on the debate team. I enjoy that it pushes me to see both sides of an issue. I like that I have to look at both sides of something and prepare arguments in support of the topic, even if it’s something I don’t necessarily agree with.

I think too often we get set in a path where we see one side of something and feel that the other side is automatically wrong, and that creates a lot of conflict in society because people don’t listen to each other. I think debating has helped me to learn to work through disagreements more civilly.

Off to college I’ll be interviewing soon to see if I’ll get the Founder’s Scholarship for Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, Washington. I won the President’s Scholarship that will pay $26,000 a year toward my tuition and housing, but I’m one of five candidates for the Founder’s Scholarship. I’ll be studying math and someday I hope to be a mathematics professor.

I have always loved tutoring, especially

math. It gives me a lot of joy to help someone understand something. I understand that a lot of people say that math is their least favorite subject, but I think if they give it a chance, it won’t be as bad as it seems.

Flutist or flautist?

I play the flute in the school band. I love the way it controls every aspect of what you’re doing. Each musical phrase, whether you cut a note short or hold it, the way you breathe, everything is connected to the way you play.

I also just love the feeling of making music, creating something that others like to hear and think is cool.

I still have no idea if it’s supposed to be “flutist” or “flautist.”

Do you have a suggestion for My name is…?

E-470 revenues released The E-470 Public Highway Authority released 2016 traffic and toll revenue figures showing that traffic increased 7.2 percent over 2015, with fee transactions rising from $74.6 million to $80.0 million. It marks the seventh straight year of traffic growth along the corridor.

The rise in traffic, coupled with a nominal 2016 toll increase, resulted in a $19.8 million increase to $192.8 million in net toll revenues.

Jason Myers, E-470’s finance director, said the 11.4 percent growth in net toll revenues was sufficient to meet E-470’s financial obligations, including $97.2 million of debt service payments in 2016 to bondholders. E-470 still has $1.5 billion in outstanding bond debt.

The toll road is financed, constructed, operated and governed by the E-470 Public Highway Authority, composed of eight local governments: Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties, and the municipalities of Aurora, Brighton, Commerce City, Parker and Thornton.

Dressage symposium The Colorado Horse Park announced the launch of a new initiative to bring an elevated level of exposure and clinic opportunities with world-class dressage riders to the venue. The Dressage Symposium in the Rockies is scheduled from May 20 to May 24.

The event will span five days and offer clinic and auditing opportunities with five internationally recognized dressage riders and professionals. The symposium will benefit the Rocky Mountain Dressage Society and is open to riders from around the country. Clinic sessions will focus on mounted and unmounted horsemanship, as well as technical dressage movements taught by masters of the sport.

“This is a very exciting venture for The Colorado Horse Park and for the breadth of equestrian enthusiasts in the Rocky Mountain region,” said Meg Krueger, chief operating officer of the park. “The Dressage Symposium in the Rockies will bring dressage back into the spotlight in Colorado.”

Each day is open to auditors interested in attending the sessions. Packages of one-, three- and five-day passes are available and can be reserved by contacting ebaker@coloradohorsepark.com.

Code change to play part in drug fight

Parker police, town council try to deal with heroin, cocaine, meth

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As news of opioid and heroin addiction spreads throughout the United States, local officials are being forced to respond to the threat it poses to Parker and surrounding areas.

“This opioid epidemic is not targeting the inner city of Chicago and the back alleys, it’s targeting the whole country,” Parker Police Chief David King said. “There’s a lot of communities like ours that have had a lot of tragedy.”

King said Parker officers respond to 3.5 calls per month, about one a week, related to heroin, cocaine or methamphetamine use. Some users become addicted to prescription opioids and switch to heroin because it’s cheaper than oxycodone or other painkillers. Others, he said, are selfmedicating with hard drugs to deal with their problems.

Heather Tiftickjian, a registered nurse and emergency department director at Parker Adventist Hospital, said 51 patients have been treated in the ER for drug overdoses in the last four months. Most of those patients are between the age of 18 and 40, she said, but some are as young as 15 or as old at 67.

Seeking a legal tool to crack down on drug houses in and around Parker, police Cmdr. Doreen Jokerst

County commissioners to also serve as board of adjustment

approached Town Attorney Jim Maloney. Their interaction resulted in an amendment to the town’s municipal code regarding the definition of nuisance properties. The change allows the town to declare a home a nuisance property if police are repeatedly called to their property for drug offenses related to heroin, methamphetamine or cocaine.

Three visits within 60 days or seven visits within 12 months would result in such a declaration for the homeowner, after which they would be required to make a plan with Neighborhood Services to correct the problem, possibly by evicting tenants.

Jokerst said police will reach out to property owners after one or two visits to let them know there’s a problem.

“So far the homeowners I’ve gotten ahold of that I’ve been able to call took care of the issue,” she said. “They actually didn’t know that was going on with their rental property.”

The ordinance is just a tool, King said. The people who make it work, and the people it’s intended to help, are the members of the community.

Whether they’re reporting suspicious activity in their neighborhood or asking for help themselves, King and Jokerst said it all starts with a phone call to police.

“Addiction at some level has affected every family,” Jokerst said.

“There are a lot of resources that the police department has, and so if someone’s seeing this and doesn’t know where to turn or what help they can get, they can always reach out.”

Douglas County commissioners appointed themselves as the threemember county board of adjustment Feb. 14.

No one from the public commented on the agenda item, nor did commissioners offer statements before the vote.

“Our board is ultimately accountable for ensuring that the administration of the county’s zoning regulations — including proper interpretation and enforcement — are consistently applied, without bias, as required by law,” board of commissioners Chairman Roger Partridge said in a written statement.

The board of adjustment “hears requests to deviate from zoning

regulations, interprets zoning maps, and resolves property and district boundary disputes,” according to the county’s website.

It was previously made up of five county residents appointed by commissioners. On Jan. 10, commissioners voted to truncate the board from five to three people.

They also considered amending zoning regulations to allow commissioners to appoint themselves as the board of adjustment, but held off on that decision until further work sessions could be held on the topic. A public work session was held Jan. 30.

Douglas County is not alone in this move. Ouray County, Archuleta County, Saguache County, Gilpin County and Alamosa County also have boards of adjustment filled by county commissioners.

A moment in time: Readers’ Workshop Elementary teacher spends time with students one-on-one

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Students enter the classroom to the strains of music, toned-down versions of The Beatles and Jim Croce playing softly to begin the day. One song repeats, a signal for the students togather on the carpet in the center of the room.

Teacher Patrick Allen, a 16-year veteran at Frontier Valley Elementary in Parker, reads a few pages from “Butterfly House” by Eve Bunting. Allen chose the book to explore how sensory images, like the smell of flowers or the warmth of the sun, enhance reading comprehension.

The passage describes a child releasing a faltering butterfly from its chrysalis, and alludes to the transformation taking place within the story’s protagonist, a young girl.

“Maybe it’s a metaphor, maybe the whole book is a metaphor,” one child suggests.

“I wonder if this might be something to think about,” Allen joins in, nudging the young readers toward understanding.

He writes key points on an enlarged easel pad, an exercise the students will replicate with their “readers’ notebooks” throughout the morning.

“Happy reading,” Allen says. “You guys have fun.”

And they scatter. Some to their desks, some to a comfortable spot on the carpet, some to a bathtub filled with cushions.

Allen visits with each one, individually, taking notes and talking about the finer points of their chosen works, from biographies of Amelia Earhart and Derek Jeter to “Confessions of a Former Bully” and “Stuart Little.”

“They kind of lead my instruction,” he says. “I’m just giving them tools to guide their reading.”

From about 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., the children read silently, or not so silently, or talk about their books with their

Staying inside the circle Parker man helps others get back on track with God and grub

e D a t d D

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It’s a sunny Saturday morning in February.

Inside the Parker Evangelical Presbyterian Church community room, Julian Maestas sits on a couch and draws an invisible circle on the polished surface of a coffee table with his finger.

He says it represents a state of godly living, where a man meets his obligations to his family, to his God, to society.

“Often, without my father’s love, I stepped outside of that circle,” he says.

Maestas, a Parker resident, was incarcerated from 2003-07 for a variety of charges, including burglary, escape and possession of a controlled substance. His problems stemmed from addiction, but he says the absence of a father figure in his life set him on the path to prison.

“I’ve been shot, I’ve been stabbed,” he says. “It seems like I’m just trying to catch up on my life since I’ve been out of prison.”

In 2007, on probation and living at the Centennial Community Transition Center in unincorporated Arapahoe County, Maestas turned to prayer and fellowship to keep him moving in the right direction. He joined Southeast Christian Church and became the community outreach director at Cross Culture Church in Green Valley Ranch.

A father of seven, Maestas repaired his relationship with his oldest three children and moved back in with his wife and their youngest four children.

He started a program called “Father Up,” helping other men in transition rebuild their live. In 2014, he began attending the Men’s Breakfast group at PEPC, where he brings as many men from halfway houses as he can with him.

“It has changed us in a good way,” says Gary McCusker, Family Life Pastor at PEPC. “Julian has so much energy, you can tell that where he’s coming from, he just wants to make a difference.”

Acknowledging Parker’s “homogenous” population, McCusker says Maestas and his companions give his group a chance to reach a more diverse population. It’s an arrangement he hopes will prosper.

“We’ve kind of left an open door,” he says.

Wanting to belong This Saturday, Jason Hoskins and Al Waters walk through the door with Maestas. Both went to college, both have children and both are trying to regain their place in society, and with

Former CU Buffaloes tight end Eddy Reinhardt shares the story of his traumatic brain injury at the Parker Evangelical Presbyterian Church Men’s Breakfast on Feb. 11.

Reinhardt was a dominating receiver before a career-ending injury left him in a coma for 62 days. Now he and his father travel and share a message of the importance of faith and family. their families.

Both give Maestas credit for helping them along the way.

“He’s my go-to guy,” Waters, a father of six, says. “I can call him at one o’clock in the morning.”

Waters was abused as a child and served time for identity theft and forgery. Now he works at the Inverness Hotel in Arapahoe County and is writing screenplays. He says the men’s group at PEPC keeps him grounded, and he’s made a lot of progress with his standing in his family.

Hoskins is trying to mend his relationship with his 14-year-old son.

He says the fellowship he feels at each monthly breakfast leaves him feeling good, ready to meet the challenges he’ll face in the weeks before the next one.

“Every man wants to be listened

to, every boy wants to be in the club,” Hoskins says. “When you grow up and you’re not getting that …”

He trails off for a moment, looking to the ceiling and shaking his head.

“Everybody just wants to be a part of something,” he says.

‘It’s like family’ For his part, Maestas says Hoskins, Waters and the other men he comes to breakfast with do as much for him as he does for them. He says it’s good to know they have his back.

During discussion in the community room, Maestas asks the 60 or so men in attendance to raise their hands if they had a father or a man in their life who gave them all the guidance they needed growing up.

About 25 percent raise their hands.

He says that’s typical of the differ-

He says all men, even the ones with a clean record and a father, still need a community to help them live up to their potential, to stay in the circle.

He says that community is there, at the breakfast table, every month.

“This is where 100 men will come alongside you and lift you up and walk with you,” Maestas says. “It’s like family.”

Rural fire districts awarded money to help protect forest

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Protectors of the Pike National Forest get a financial boost each year from Douglas County, and that help came again Feb. 14 with a $100,000 donation of federal funds to five rural fire districts serving the national park in Douglas County.

“We appreciate all the efforts that the fire districts provide for us in response to a lot of areas that are pretty remote here in Douglas County,” said Tim Johnson, director of emergency management with the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office.

The federal government awards funds to the county to help offset losses in property taxes on non-taxable federal land — like the forest — within its boundaries. The county has donated a portion of those “Payment in Lieu of Taxes” funds to the rural fire districts since 2002.

The Pike National Forest, spanning 1.1 million acres, is accessible by Colorado State Highway 67 in Douglas County, west of Sedalia. The area offers camping, fishing and trails for hiking or horseback riding.

The forest is often victim to wildfires, most notably the Hayman fire of 2002 that burned more than 137,000 acres,

which fire chiefs used as an example before commissioners Feb. 14.

For the fire districts, which answered 148 calls in the Pike National Forest in 2016, the money supplements a small tax base, Mountain Communities Fire Chief Steve Brown said. He noted the Pike National Forest fills 80 percent of the agency’s district.

“We couldn’t update equipment without it,” Brown told county commissioners.

Departments largely use the funds for equipment, such as protective gear, radios, ATVs and chainsaws. The distribution among departments was based on the number of calls each had in 2016, Johnson said.

District 3 County Commissioner Lora Thomas said recreation is what people love about the county, while District 1 Commissioner David Weaver reflected on the number of fires in recent decades.

“If it wasn’t for you, Douglas County probably wouldn’t look like it does today,” Weaver said. “So thank you very much for all your efforts and everything you do.”

Roger Partridge, chairman of the board of commissioners, said the fire departments are a “godsend.”

“We wish you continued safety and security,” he said.

War of words wends its way to local library ‘Battle of the Books’ brings bookworms to bear

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

More than 70 students from high schools across Douglas County convened at the Parker Douglas County Libraries branch on Feb. 4 for the first Battle of the Books competition.

The event tested competitors’ knowledge of 10 books, assigned in October and chosen by the students.

“The most enjoyable part was definitely just being in a room of other nerds and laughing over all these inside jokes from the different books,” Legend High competitor Breanne Frank said. “You’re there because you love reading and because a hundred other kids love reading and you were all crazy enough to sign up for this.”

Teacher librarians from eight high schools organized the daylong competition and quizzed students on material from the assigned literature.

Douglas County teacher/librarian Brian Winkleman presents the trophy to Legend High school students Breanne Frank, Emma Glennan, Annie Kim and Brittany Wright after their victory at the first annual Battle of the Books competition in Parker. Students tested their knowledge of 10 books from a variety of genres.

COURTESY PHOTO The works represented several genres from historical fiction to fantasy.

Judges included Douglas Public Library librarians, teachers and Tattered Cover bookstore owner Kristen Gilligan.

Teams of three to four students answered 15 questions per “battle” for a total of two qualifying rounds

and a four-team semifinal.

Legend students Frank, Emma Glennan, Annie Kim and Brittany Wright faced off against Chaparral High’s Yemi Ajao, Carmel Harrison, Megan Houston and Brianna Morris in the final round.

Legend came out on top.

“We weren’t sure we’d get buy-in from busy high schoolers, but we librarians

knew we had book lovers in our schools,” said Carrie Denman, teacher librarian at Legend. “It’s sort of like when you throw a party and you wonder if anybody’s going to come.”

Denman’s fears were put to rest as soon as she saw the turnout and enthusiasm from competitors.

o the other day as I was standing in line waiting to order my lunch, I found myself staring at the menu and trying to decide what I was really in the mood for that day. Even though I had eaten at the same place hundreds of times in my life and I knew the menu like the back of my hand, I still reviewed my choices like it was the first time I had ever been there.

After much deliberation, I eventually ordered the same thing I order almost 90 percent of the time. There were dozens of choices, but yet I ordered what was somehow programmed in my head already.

As I thought about this over lunch, I

thought about the menu of life and how I can choose what I would like to see in myself or believe about myself. And I was reminded of a quote that I had heard somewhere along the way, “You are what you believe yourself to be.”

And so as I ran through my mental menu I thought about some of the ways I choose to see myself, and maybe how others might see me. The items on my menu that I could choose from included loving, caring, forgiving, compassionate, energized, consistent, winner, champion, thoughtful, father, friend, smart, generous and happy. The good news is that I didn’t have to make a single

So my question is this: In those 20 years, how many times did a person with a gun burst in and start shooting people like fish in a barrel?

I am a Vietnam veteran and there is only one thing I know for sure: Everything changes when somebody shoots back.

Imagine any active shooter situation, and this time there’s a concealed carry present, and that person could summon the courage just to shoot back. Or imagine there is no gun present, and now you’re just cowering behind your desk waiting to get shot in the head. How can anybody say being totally unarmed is a good idea?

Just a thought: Let’s not hear it for all the heartfelt opinions

he food was just delicious, and we loved the way ‘Katy’ introduced herself. She said, ‘They named me after Katy, Texas, not Katy Perry.’ The décor made us feel right at home. My steak was cooked to perfection. Five stars, for sure.”

“One of the worst meals I’ve ever had. And why do they insist upon introducing themselves? It should be against the law. The décor looked like the 1970s rental furniture I had when I was in college. My steak tasted like it was made by Goodyear.

One star.”

Two diners on the same day ordered the same thing from the same waitress at the same restaurant.

Some of us learn about opinions at an early age.

There should be a class in art school devoted to it, so that later on you know how to take the good with the bad.

Many of us enjoyed the back and forth between Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert, film critics who could disagree about the same film, just like Katy’s diners.

Up until blockbuster orgies of special effects and gratuitous violence became the film industry’s standards (with a few exceptions), I thought I might want to be a film critic.

Not now.

I have been asked to be an art critic. No thank you.

The renters next door left in a huff because the owner decided to sell, and gave them 30 days to get out.

They chose to leave a souvenir of their displeasure. I guess they thought it was in the face of the owner, but it was in the face of the neighborhood, because we had to look at it for a week.

They left what looked like everything they owned in the driveway, and it wasn’t pretty.

Charters get a great deal As the Douglas County School District ponders asking taxpayers for more money to support our schools, a new page of support for charters by the school board questions where this new money will go.

A new charter, Leman Academy, appears to be receiving additional taxpayer funds in addition to the state allocation (PPR) that is normally passed on to charters. Why are taxpayers asked to fund this new charter a consultant fee to its founder? Why are taxpayers asked to fund an additional $100 per child they enroll each year?

This new charter will receive the full amount of state money (PPR), $550 per child of local (MLO) money, and now the board agrees to give them more.

Looks like a sweet deal at taxpayer expense to privatize education. Is there anyone else that sees something wrong in funding charters besides me?

It didn’t go unnoticed.

“Joseph” came out of his house to help.

Another neighbor brought him a tip.

If you own a restaurant or direct a film or perform in a play, you are up for grabs, and because of the internet, opinions can be tossed around anonymously.

I noted the death of Mary Tyler Moore. There was an outpouring of favorable comments about her television program, because it was “groundbreaking.”

I thought it was dreadful. It was calculated humor, forced out every 10 or 15 seconds, and pumped up with a reprehensible laugh track.

In “Ordinary People” Moore was

brilliant in a role of a lifetime. It might have been unacceptable to many of Mary Richards’ fans. But it’s how I prefer to remember her.

Five stars.

things like negativity, pessimism, anger, envy, enemy, hate, revenge and sadness.

Here’s the thing, just like in a restaurant we get to make the choices.

And maybe we choose the same thing 90 percent of the time and that’s OK, especially if it is something that is really good. And just imagine if we went about this same selection process throughout our day? What if we saw that very same menu for breakfast, lunch, dinner,

and dessert? If we did, and if we were choosing from the menu of the good instead of the bad, we would be nourishing our own bodies and probably also nourishing anyone else who we happen to be around each day.

How about you? Do you go to the same restaurant frequently? Do you usually order the same thing 90 percent of the time? Well I would love to hear all about the items on your own personal menu and the choices you

choose to make about how you see yourself at gotonorton@gmail.com.

And when we frequent our favorite places and order up a healthy serving of goodness for ourselves, it really will be a better than good week for everyone.

Senator should focus on us U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner says he is worried that paid out-of-state protesters are impeding his constituents’ ability to reach him and express their legitimate concerns.

His actions, however, do not indicate that he actually wants to hear from his constituents: • He never publicly addressed the flood of phone calls, emails and rallies regarding the cabinet nominees.

• He is refusing to schedule a town hall meeting while he is in Colorado doing in-district work during the Congressional spring recess or commit to one at a later date.

• He does not advertise telephone town hall meetings on his website or in his newsletter and holds them at inconvenient times during the day.

His staff says that as a senator, Gardner has a busy and full schedule. However, Sen. Gardner has time, as chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, to fundraise for Republicans representing constituents in other states.

Who, then, does he represent?

Distilling the best parts of life

Colorado’s spirits scene sees growth, diversification

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A

lot of ingredients are required to distill good, quality spirits. But one requirement is at the root of them all — passion.

“I went to Kentucky and Tennessee to learn from the distillers there,” said Mitch Abate, distiller at Downslope Distilling in Centennial. “It’s really cool to see people’s reactions when they try our drinks for the first time and have their preconceived notions changed.”

A distiller’s passion can be tasted in the dedication to the craft, quality of the spirits and how well the product is received.

“I’ve been distilling for 26 years,” said Stephen Gould, owner and distiller at Golden Moon Distillery and Speakeasy. “To make our drinks, we bring in ingredients from all over the world, and the finished product goes out to countries like the United Kingdom, Italy and Denmark.”

Distilling is the process that purifies alcohol by heating it into vapor, which is then condensed through cooling.

The independent brewery scene in Colorado has been steadily growing for decades, and that same approach is now following suit in the world of distilling. According to the Colorado Distillers Guild, the state is home to more than 50 distillers making everything from whiskey and gin to kümmel and aquavit. In this growing

industry, there’s all kinds of room for experimentation and variety.

“We’re Colorado’s only producer of aquavit, which is a Scandinavian spirit,” said Ryan White, owner of Devil’s Head Distillery in Englewood.

“We also do vodka and gin, but we wanted to make something that would differentiate us from everyone else.”

Local distillers’ commitment to quality, often locally-grown ingredients, is one reason more people are becoming interested in the industry, White said.

“There’s a greater interest from the public in locally-sourced goods,” he said. “There’s been a renewed focus on supporting local businesses, which has also been beneficial.”

Although people have grown more familiar over time with the process for making beer and wine, the steps and nuances of distilling are still unfamiliar to many, which lends the process an appealing bit of mystery. But one of the goals of distilleries is to educate people, so tours are often offerred to show how the drinks are made.

Downslope Distilling takes education a step further and offers a distilling class once a month. Abate said he’s had students from all over the world learn about spirits and some of the ways they’re made.

“More and more people are coming in these days with at least some SEE DISTILLING, P13

In Colorado, it is legal to brew up to 100 gallons of beer and wine for personal use, but it is illegal to distill spirits without a federal permit or taxes.

There is no Colorado statute explicitly prohibiting stills, but it is illegal to use a still to make spirits for consumption or resale without a license.

The state does offer a distillery pub license to make spirits legally.

One of the stills used to make whiskey at Centennial’s Downslope Distilling.

Comedy brings warmth to Alaskan wilderness ‘Brilliant Traces’ makes return visit to Vintage

IF YOU GO “BRILLIANT TRACES” fplays through March 5 at Vintage Theatre, 1468 Dayton St., Aurora. Performances: 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays; 2:30 p.m. on Sundays. Tickets: $24$30, vintagetheatre.org or 303-856-7830.

One enters the smaller theater at Vintage past the dark, snowy porch of a woodsy cabin, to find a cozy, rustic interior where a silent man sits, contemplating — probably how it usually looks in this isolated place. Wind howls in the wilds of Alaska.

The Vintage Theatre stage goes dark at curtain time and when lights come up, a lump huddles under the blankets on the bed.

Soon, there is a pounding at the door and when he answers, a bedraggled young woman in wedding finery stumbles in. “I’ve been driving for three days,” she says.

(Playwright Cindy Lou Johnson immediately has our attention.)

The woman has a stout shot from the bottle of Jameson’s on the table, kicks off her shoes and passes out.

knowledge of how the process works,” he said. “This field is really booming, and groups like the Colorado Distillers Guild are helping get the word out.”

Most distilleries have tasting rooms, so visitors can sample the finished product. Golden Moon opened its speakeasy three years ago to provide customers a classic cocktail bar vibe to try the distillery’s many offerings.

Bars like the Schoolhouse Kitchen and Libations in Olde Town Arvada use locally made whiskey to enhance their collection of more than 1,100 whiskeys.

whiskey nerd. “We have a lot of demand for local stuff. All the time people come in looking for Colorado whiskey.”

Many of these creations are being recognized in and out of Colorado. Last year, Golden Moon’s single malt whiskey won a double gold medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Devil’s Head’s aquavit was recognized at the Denver International Spirits Competition, and Downslope’s Ould Tom Gin received the silver at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

Unfamiliarity about spirits and a fear of asking questions may have kept people from trying spirits, but Gould wants to change that.

“What I do is not about excluding people, but making things people enjoy,” he said. “We want to welcome everyone here to learn what they like.”

Roseannah Deluce (Maggie Stacy) and Henry Harry (Christian Mast) are a troubled pair of individuals — well-played by skillful actors.

choice and she has run away from her own wedding, stopping only for gas and a candy bar every five hours. What’s the backstory here?

“Brilliant Traces” by Cindy Lou Johnson played in New York in 1989.

This is a second run for Vintage Theatre, after a 2008 production.

“I so longed to hear the beautiful words of Cindy Lou Johnson again,” said director Craig Bond in his notes. The language is indeed often poetic as the runaway bride talks about her feeling of “hovering” above it all. And at times, she verges on hysterical.

It’s called a comedy and certainly has its humorous spots — the mix.

It produces an engaging, light evening of theater. Sit back. Let them tell you a story.

Spotlight On Business

INTERVIEW WITH RENOVATION CONSULTANT, MARK HORVATH

Herald: What is Your Background?

Mark: 40+ years in the home remodel and construction industry starting at a young age maintaining two homes with a construction company and farm in the family.

An MBA in Accounting and a BS in Business Administration/Economics. Also, certifications in Green Building, QuickBooks, and BQA to help with mini farm or ranch.

Twenty years in Colorado working as a Project Manager, Superintendent, and Licensed Contractor in residential and commercial construction. My wife and I recently completed a roof down, home remodel allowing us to sell at one of the highest per square foot of $242.38 in the 80123-zip code.

The TV show aspect can be limited and misleading. In one show an Aurora home was evaluated for $13,000 dollars of immediate work. I calculated around $25,000. Enlisting my services can provide value in understanding items like our conditions, building codes, or even our insurance climate versus someone from out of state that would not readily know.

Hopefully we can recognize that the internet and home shows can provide a limited education on remodeling and regional trends but, not wisdom or experience. For example, what happens with a toilet leak in the guest bathroom 10 pm Friday night with family arriving Saturday morning? You pull the toilet to reseal and find the sewer pipe is cracked and surrounded by concrete. What do you do?

Herald: What Services do you provide:

Herald: How does a person value your service?

Mark: To be your consumer advocate as a “Renovation Consultant.” To help guide and educate you through the construction process and what to expect with your project. Perform site evaluation providing a written plan to help guide and direct you in achieving your goals and vision for your home whether purchasing, selling, or your forever home on specific projects or full management services.

Mark: One of the best examples of value would be helping you plan and manage a 1-2 month kitchen remodel from becoming a 6+ month project. With the national average kitchen remodel around $36,000, the investment in my service can save you thousands of dollars, time, and/or frustration.

Herald: What would your clients look like?

Mark: For a full house remodel evaluation it is a flat rate dependent upon the size and value of your home. Scope of work can be customized to reflect your project and vision. Also, an hourly basis if your projects are minimal. If you desire more help, I can create a scope of work that fits your needs.

Herald: What is the difference between you and the home shows?

grooves and jazzy dynamics, soulful R&B

Mark: This is a great question. Please recognize TV shows are staged and can be ½ reality and ½ construction. Also, to create drama often there are “foundation” issues that pop up in the middle of the remodel.

Something you would have inspected before buying?

Herald: What is the cost of your service?

Herald: What advice can you give our readers?

Mark: Don’t forget to laugh! It will help you manage your expectations with your wants, needs, and desires keeping in mind the scope of your project and budget.

Also, de-clutter your home prior to the project start date. Even though the contractor may not have provided a line item in the estimate for working with the clutter, the cost of doing so will be included in the price if they must work around it.

A shutterbug with her head in the stars Rotary Club chooses Ponderosa’s Peterson as Student of the Month

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Ponderosa High School senior Annabelle Peterson was selected as the Rotary Club of Parker’s Student of the Month award for February.

Peterson is active in the National Honor Society, National Art Society and is an officer on the Student Council. She maintains a 4.11 grade-point average and is ranked 18th in her class of 315 students.

“Annabelle … is a talented artist who shares her view of the world through the lens of a camera and ink of a pen,” said AP literature teacher Gary Cordray. “She is wise beyond her years and eloquent, as well as insightful.”

Photography is a passion for Peterson, and she specializes in photographing bands and musicians from the press section at concerts and festivals. She recently became the youngest intern photographer for an online publication called Infectious Magazine.

She also plays a variety of musical instruments and acts as pit captain for the marching band and winter percussion group. As part of the honors band, Peterson plays in the wind ensemble.

Peterson is also active in community service projects. She writes letters to children in foster care systems overseas, goes on church mission trips and volunteers at the Denver Rescue Mission and her church.

An astrophysics buff, Peterson will attend the Colorado School of Mines in the fall to study physics. Her plan is to get a master’s degree in applied physics and ultimately work in a space-related field.

‘You’re a better person ... around Grant’ Parker teen logs more than 500 hours of volunteer service

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

While most high schoolers are sleeping in on weekends, Grant Mueller is lending a hand.

The 18-year-old Parker resident and senior at Regis Jesuit High School stays busy enough with the school’s jazz band and track team, but what free time he has is spent at the Parker Task Force.

He started coming to the task force — which provides Parker, Franktown and Elizabeth families in need with groceries and career counseling — in the eighth grade. But he soon made it part of his weekly schedule, and in January he surpassed 500 hours of service.

“I was just coming because we had to get service hour requirements for school,” Mueller said. “I kept on coming back because the people are such good-hearted people that it just made it fun.”

Parker Task Force President Steve Budnack said Mueller’s impact there has been “unbelievable,” and he inspires the other volunteers.

“They see this young man who does

Parker resident and Regis Jesuit student Grant Mueller holds a stuffed tiger in the break room at the Parker Task Force. The tiger is awarded daily to the delivery driver who returns with the most boxes of donated food.

TOM SKELLEY not have to be here… he wants to be here,” Budnack said. “He’s grown since when he was in eighth grade (and) this was something he wanted to try to where it’s part of his life now.”

He added that Mueller’s dedication to the food bank sets him apart from his peers.

“He volunteers at every single food

drive we have here, he hasn’t missed any. Not only that, but during the summer he comes back and volunteers throughout the week,” Budnack said.

“He has over 500 community service hours with us. What kid does that?”

Mueller said he’s taken more than community service hours from his volunteering.

The clients he’s met and the stories they’ve shared helped him realize how good he has it. He wishes more people understood that often the only difference between the volunteers and the clients at the bank are circumstance.

“It’s really been very humbling for me,” Mueller said. “Just to see what [situation] they’re in and how privileged I was in my life... Once you go out in the real world and actually interact with these people, they’re really down to earth.”

Volunteering started with the task force, but it hasn’t ended there. He spent much of last summer interning at the Willowbrook Place memory care facility near Littleton and at Children’s Hospital in Aurora. He hopes the skills he’s learned will lead to a career in health care. He hasn’t chosen a college yet but hopes to get a degree, and eventually a career, in health care.

Whatever path he takes, Mueller plans to make time to give back. He hopes to return to the task force during school breaks and, wherever he lives after college, he plans to find a place to volunteer. Maybe someday, he’ll bring his children along as his father did.

Budnack said wherever Mueller works, the company will be lucky to have him.

“You’re a better person when you’re around Grant,” he said.

Slam dunk champ helps raise daughter’s game

J

Ponderosa sophomore Cohl Schultz has a headlock on Max Gonzales of Cherokee Trail during the 220-pound Class 5A championship wrestling match on Feb. 18 at the Pepsi Center. Schultz won his second consecutive state championship with a 7-0 win over Gonzales.

JIM BENTON

Sophomore repeats as state champ Ponderosa’s Cohl Schultz wins 220-pound title

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORDOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Ponderosa’s Cohl Schultz was following in his big brother’s footsteps.

Schultz, a 220-pound sophomore, walked onto the same mat only a few minutes after his brother, senior Trent Schultz of Mountain Vista, won the 195-pound championship at the Class 5A State Wrestling Tournament on Feb. 18 at the Pepsi Center.

Cohl Schultz then proceeded to defeat Max Gonzales of Cherokee Trail, 7-0, to win his second consecutive state title and join Trent as two-

time state champions.

“I feel pretty good,” said Cohl Schultz, who finished the season with a 45-1 record. “This was my second title. I worked hard all year and this is a pretty sweet thing to do again this year...”

Ponderosa had two other wrestlers in championship matches.

Grand Junction’s Josiah Rider pinned junior Parker Benekas in the 145-pound title match and 182-pound junior Jayden Woodruff dropped a close 2-1 decision to Jimmy Weaver of Coronado.

Benekas was in trouble against Rider and couldn’t get out of the first period.

“Your goal is that you always want a better finish and to be mentally patient with all the hard work you

have put in,” he said. “I didn’t stop moving, but he was better. It has been a good season, but it didn’t end the way I wanted.”

Woodruff missed part of the season with an injury and his match against Weaver didn’t end well either. He desperately tried for a takedown in the third period but couldn’t accomplish the 2-point maneuver.

“Our match didn’t come out the way I thought it would,” Woodruff said. “We had to keep moving but nothing much happened. I was confident coming in and felt that I could win. It just didn’t turn out that way.

Ponderosa finished ninth in the final team standings and no other wrestlers from Parker finished among the top six individuals.

Wheat Ridge on Feb. 14.

Trent Schultz, wrestling, senior, Mountain Vista: He completed a 40-0 season by winning his second straight 195-pound state wrestling title on Feb. 18 with a 3-1 victory over Zeke Silva of Cherokee Trail. His brother Cohl, a sophomore at Ponderosa, won his second consecutive 220-pound state title.

JT Bley, basketball, senior, Rock Canyon: He made a basket with 19.2 seconds

to play to put Rock Canyon ahead and then drew a charging foul that nullified a winning shot from ThunderRidge in the Jaguars’ 49-48 Continental League victory over the Grizzlies on Feb. 17.

Ronnie DeGray III, basketball, sophomore, Chaparral: DeGray took game scoring and rebounding honors with 21 points and nine boards in the Wolverines’ 65-47 Continental League win over Regis Jesuit on Feb. 15.

STANDOUT PERFORMERS Malik Heinselman, wrestling, junior, Castle View: Heinselman collected a 23-9 major decision over Dawson Collins of Grand Junction on Feb. 18 to win his second consecutive 106-pound state wrestling title. He was unbeaten this season with a 44-0 record.

Katie Puchino, basketball, junior, Littleton: She was credited with 12 steals to go along with 11 points in the Lions’ 56-14 Jefferson County 4A League conquest of

ason Richardson, the former Michigan State standout who played 14 seasons in the National Basketball Association, knows what it feels like to be in OVERTIME a pressure-packed basketball game.

However, he admits that stress as a player is nothing like the tension he feels when watching his daughter Jaela play high school basketball for Cherry Creek.

Jim Benton “There’s so much pressure watching her play,” said Richardson who has made his home in the Denver area for the past two years.

“No matter what your child does, you want your child to succeed. When she makes a turnover or misses a shot it’s like, `Oh man, come on.’ There’s definitely more pressure watching her.

“It’s definitely a lot of fun just watching where she came from to the player she is now. It’s fun seeing her out there being a young adult.”

Jaela Richardson played last season at Heritage High in Saginaw, Michigan, but a knee injury ended her season in February. She chose to join her father in Colorado and enrolled at Cherry Creek.

“I get a lot of advice from my Dad,” she said. “After every game, we watch film and go over not only what I’m doing, but what my teammates are doing. And what I can do better and we can do better as a team. I tell him, Dad if I did something, let me know. If the team did something, let me know, so we can make the team better.”

Jaela, a 6-foot junior who missed several games early this season while completing rehab from need surgery, is averaging 9.4 points and 8.1 rebounds a game for a Bruins team loaded with tall players.

“I’m trying to work more on becoming more of a guard,” she said. “There are plenty of opportunities with our offense that allow me to be on the perimeter, and I have to take advantage of it.”

Jason Richardson — the NBA slam dunk contest winner in 2002 and 2003 — knows it’s hard for his daughter to get the experience needed to play a perimeter position that she will likely have to play in college. In high school, good inside players are needed.

“It’s difficult for her to do that, but it’s part of the game she has to work on,” said Richardson, who at 6-6 played shooting guard and small forward for several NBA teams, retiring in 2015. “She has one more year. Last year was a wash — she was hurt and SEE BENTON, P23

The Jefferson senior won the Class 3A championship at 132 pounds with an 8-3 decision over Brandon Damian of Valley at the Colorado State Wrestling Championships over the weekend.

It was the second consecutive state title after winning at 126 pounds in 2016.

He also leaves Colorado high school wrestling as the all-time leader with

177 career wins.

“It was a great way to finish my career in high school,” Cisneros said. “I couldn’t ask to finish any other way.”

In the back corner of the room, a caricature artist made cartoon memories for participants to take home. In another corner, flashing lights from a photo booth captured smiling faces throughout the night. Just outside the doors, limousines took promgoers on rides around the block.

After dinner, the music started and the dancing began.

“I like to boogie, but I really like to break dance,” Braden Cook said.

Everyone got crowned either king or queen.

And volunteers worked throughout the night to ensure an amazing prom for everyone.

“It is a great way to give back to the community,” said volunteer Ashley Larson, a freshman at Lutheran High School in Parker. “My grandma works with people who have special needs. I really love them.”

The event was one of three in Colorado and one of 350 around the world on the same night, said Chad Wietrick, the West Central regional director of Bethesda Lutheran Communities.

Bethesda Lutheran is a Christian organization based in Watertown, Wisconsin, that helps people with intellectual and developmental disabilities connect with their communities.

The community helped support the event: Chick-fil-A donated $2,000 worth of food for volunteers and community members gave hundreds of dresses.

Photographers, makeup artists, limousine drivers, the DJ and caterers all greatly discounted their services.

The event’s $14,000 pricetag was covered by the Tim Tebow Foundation and private backers.

“We look at this as an opportunity to give to people with disabilities who never experienced the prom,” Wietrick said. “Everyone gets crowned as king and queen. It shows that everybody is loved.”
