MY NAME IS

RYAN JOHNSON

Future Air Force cadet looks forward to what’s ahead About me I’m a pretty simple guy. I like to do regular kid things, like play video games and hang out with friends. Beyond that, I like to get involved in my school and my community and to do that, I joined many clubs and organizations. At Legend High School, I was a member of the student government for all four years and served as the sophomore class president. I was also a member of National Honor Society, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and the Boy Scouts of America as well as other smaller clubs. I have been a member of the cross country and track and field teams for four years and finished eighth place at the Colorado state cross country meet as well as finishing ninth place in the 3200 meter race at the Colorado State track meet. Because of this success in my running career, I was recruited to run at the United States Air Force Academy and allowed me to achieve my lifelong dream of joining the United States military.

What I do for fun…

For fun, I like to run and be with people. I really enjoy meeting up with my teammates and friends for a run and just being able to talk and hang out with them. When I’m not running, I like to

meet up with people and do fun things that will allow us to take our minds off of all of the stress of life and just be kids for a while.

People I look up to…

I really look up to my older brother Scott and many of my peers. Growing up, I saw everything between me and my brother as a competition. I always strived to be as successful as him, even though he was two years older than me and in most things I had no chance of beating him. As we grew older, this relationship became more healthy and I was able to look at him as an inspiration rather than a rival. I also look up to many of my peers and am able to learn from their many experiences and shape my own character from those that I meet. Along with my brother and peers, my family as a whole has molded me to become the man I am today.

When I grow up, I want to be…

Right now, I would say my biggest life goal is to be successful at the Air Force Academy. I have heard many times that the academy is very tough academically, athletically and emotionally, but I am ready for the task and will work hard to do well at the academy. I will strive to keep on top of my grades and to do well in my running career at the academy.

Area Walmart, Sam’s stores kick off fundraising Campaign to benefit Children’s Miracle Network hospitals STAFF REPORT

All Denver Walmart stores and Sam’s Clubs have kicked off their Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals fundraising campaign to help treat local children who are sick or injured.

All money raised during the Denver campaign directly benefits Children’s Hospital Colorado to fund critical treatments, pediatric medical equipment, research and charitable care.

The Walmart and Sam’s Club campaign runs through July 7.

“Our associates take so much pride in raising money for this cause. Each year we sincerely enjoy assisting with this effort,” Lakewood store man-

ager William Roberts said in a news release.

To date, Walmart and Sam’s Club associates, members and customers in Denver have raised $15.1 million for Children’s Hospital Colorado, most of it one dollar at a time. On a national level, Walmart and Sam’s Club have raised more than $1 billion for CMN Hospitals, the largest cash amount ever raised by one company for a nonprofit in North America, according to the news release.

The need is staggering — 62 children enter a Children’s Miracle Network hospital for treatment every minute, the release said.

To participate, shoppers can donate $1 or more at the checkout lane or selfcheckout of any Colorado Walmart store or Sam’s Club and spread the word about the campaign via social media with the hashtag #HelpKidsLiveBetter.

Metro district gets new name, new industry explored Town council meeting focuses on Hess Ranch, hemp regulations

BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Hess Ranch Metro District is being renamed the Trails at Crowfoot Metro District. Meanwhile, the town continues to research ways to regulate the hemp industry.

Here’s what you missed at the June 17 Parker Town Council meeting: Hess Ranch gets makeover The Hess Ranch Metro District is now known as the Trails at Crowfoot Metro District as changes to the roads throughout the southwest Parker neighborhood are being made to extend and connect to Crowfoot Valley Road.

The neighborhood is about 400 acres on the east side of Crowfoot Valley Road.

More options for housing in Parker will be available at the Trails at Crowfoot neighborhood in the next two years.

The town council previously approved a preliminary plan amendment, the beginning phase of the construction of 68 duplex homes in the Trails at Crowfoot neighborhood

at the intersection of Bayou Gulch Road and North Pinery Parkway. The complex, with 136-single family homes in all, will be just east of Crowfoot Valley.

Chris Elliott, of E5X Management Inc., the applicant for the amendment, said the homes will cost from the low to mid-$400,000s. The project will begin within the next three weeks and vertical construction will begin by July of next year. The duplexes will have strong front porches and garages in the rear, similar to those in The Meadows community in Castle Rock.

The master plan for the neighborhood includes several “pocket parks” located in various spots. One park is planned to have a soccer field, baseball field and small swimming pool adjacent to the initial buildings.

Options for hemp regulation As of this year, municipalities in Colorado were given the opportunity to provide their own regulatory statutes for the production of hemp products. The Town of Parker has working to learn more about ways to define and regulate certain industries that sell hemp or cannabis-based products, such as CBD, an unregulated chemical derived from the cannabis plant. CBD products have grown popular at farmers markets at some have begun to grow into their own brick-and-mortar businesses.

The town council action request

form from the June 17 meeting states that town staff wishes to evaluate the need for additional standards because hemp operations would constitute a new type of business activity in town.

Town staff said it will need at least 180 days to develop regulations to address hemp operations in the town.

“For example, the process for extracting the cannabidiol (“CBD”) from hemp may involve the use of flammable solvents and result in the release of hazardous vapors, which may necessitate fire suppression, scrubbers and filters and which may require further evaluation,” the request reads. “Additionally, there may be a need for regulations to address potential nuisance impacts, which may include, but are not be limited to, the proper storage of hemp (and mitigation of the odor), the storage and handling of chemicals and the proper disposal of hemp byproducts associated with Hemp Operations.”

“The Town Council desires to investigate the appropriate regulations needed to properly accommodate business activity and associated with Hemp Operations within the Town.

The Town’s Building Division has received several inquiries about opening businesses that would engage in Hemp Operations. The Town’s current regulations may not be adequate to address the impacts associated with this type of use and activity.”

Age in Place with a Reverse Mortgage “I’ve lived in my home for over 30 years.

I didn’t want to leave it, and go where I didn’t know the neighbors. A reverse mortgage allowed me to have the security of staying in my home without a mortgage payment. What a relief!” KS, Denver Aging in place is a benefit to many seniors. The ability to maintain the familiarity with the neighborhood, and routine of life can reduce stress and add years.

For many seniors who are living longer, the question is, “How do I fund my longevity?” Spouses are thinking about what will happen when one of them passes away. Will the surviving spouse be able to stay in the home comfortably? The answer is often “Yes!” when a reverse mortgage has been put in place to ensure there is no mortgage payment and often, a sum of money available to the surviving spouse.

The bank never owns the home and the property may be willed to the heirs.

Because a reverse mortgage is FHA insured, it is a non-recourse loan. No one is saddled with debt because of the reverse

mortgage. As a financial tool, a reverse mortgage is a wise choice in many cases providing relief from financial pressure in the near-term, and greater financial security in the long-term.

“A reverse mortgage is basically a tax-free advance on your home equity,” writes Robert Massi. “For some people, a reverse mortgage can offer financial freedom to enjoy their later years without worrying about income. For others, it can provide much needed help for staying in their homes.” The money from a reverse mortgage can be used for any purpose.

Affidavit: Teen says other STEM suspect threatened him Suspects used cocaine, set car on fire before attack, document says

Security guard’s bullet wounded student, document says

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Suspects in the STEM School Highlands Ranch shooting said they used cocaine, set a car on fire and broke into a safe holding guns with an ax in the hours leading up to the attack, according to a court document in the case released June 20.

The arrest affidavit in the case of Devon Erickson, 18, also shows he told investigators that his co-defendant in the murder case, Alec McKinney, 16, repeatedly threatened his life and forced him to assist in the shooting. McKinney wanted to target specific students at the school, he told investigators.

The May 7 shooting left one student, Kendrick Castillo, dead and eight others wounded. Court records made available online before hearings last month showed each suspect faced 48 charges, including first-degree murder. They will each be back in court in the fall — Erickson in September and McKinney in November.

Formal charges against Erickson released June 20 include conspiracy to commit murder, arson, providing a juvenile a handgun, burglary and theft, among others.

The affidavit highlights interviews with the suspects, both STEM students, from the day of the shooting.

Their accounts are similar, but vary on certain points. It says they used cocaine before the attack, targeted specific students, stole their guns from Erickson’s parents and smuggled them into the school with a guitar case and backpacks.

Erickson’s account The following is what Erickson told investigators, according to the affidavit: He said he received a message on Snapchat the night before the shooting telling him not to go to school tomorrow. The Snapchat contact said he was “super suicidal” and “wanted to get revenge on a lot of people,” the document says. The individual was considering killing his mother and siblings as well.

The name is redacted, or blacked out, but it appears to be describing McKinney.

Erickson told investigators he tried talking the friend out of his plans, but the friend threated to kill him if he told anyone.

The next day, the morning of the shooting, he went to school but left twice. The first time he went home with a friend to let his dog out. He said his parents were not home. He returned to school to receive class attendance credit and left again, this time, he says, to call the police.

As he got home, he received a message from a person, whose name is again redacted but appears to be McKinney, asking him to pick him up from school.

Law enforcement personnel secure the campus at STEM School Highlands Ranch after a shooting left one student dead and eight wounded on May 7.

FILE PHOTO He picked the individual up and took him to his house, where they spent time in the basement. The friend was angry and used cocaine. Erickson said he did not use the drug at that time.

Later, he says the two went upstairs and the friend asked where his parents’ safe was. Both knew it contained firearms. He showed the friend and attempted to leave the room but was again threated with his life, he told authorities. The friend then used an ax to break into the safe and allegedly forced Erickson to help.

The friend, according to Erickson, loaded ammunition into magazines obtained from the safe. They both loaded bags with firearms — three handguns and a rifle — and ammunition and went back to the basement, where they each consumed cocaine.

He helped the friend carry and load weapons into the car. The two drove back to school in a Honda Civic.

Erickson took his guitar case holding firearms to classroom 107. He told his teacher he was sick and was sent to the office. He said he intended to report the incident but had a panic attack and went to the bathroom until he composed himself.

When he returned to the office, the other suspect was waiting for him and again allegedly threatened to kill him and others if he said anything.

The two went to classroom 107 and split up, entering through two different doors. Erickson said he walked straight toward someone to warn that person, but the individual wasn’t paying attention and his friend was watching him.

He went back to the doorway, when he saw McKinney reach for a gun. He then grabbed a handgun from his guitar case, pointed it straight and yelled at everyone to get down.

Erickson said two students rushed him and hit him, and the gun went off in the skirmish. As they brought him down, he released his gun and began trying to warn others that his friend was also armed and planned to kill people. He heard more gunshots and described being in shock.

“Devon repeatedly claimed he was going to stop (redacted) but couldn’t

articulate how or why he never told an adult,” the affidavit says.

Erickson allowed detectives to search his phone, provided them security credentials and signed a waiver.

Toward the end of his interview, “Devon was having difficulty describing how he tried stopping (redacted),” and he requested an attorney.

McKinney’s account McKinney told investigators he wants to transition from female to male. In court, McKinney’s attorneys say he prefers male pronouns and goes by the name Alec, although court documents refer to him by his legal name of Maya.

As a minor, his name is redacted in the affidavit. Colorado Community Media is identifying McKinney because District Attorney George Brauchler has decided to prosecute the teen as an adult.

McKinney was interviewed by a separate investigator. Here is his account of the shooting, according to the affidavit: McKinney was planning a school shooting for weeks and got Erickson involved in the plan. He “wanted kids at the school to experience bad things, have to suffer from trauma like he has had to in his life. He wanted everyone in that school to suffer and realize that the world is a bad place,” the affidavit says.

He said he targeted fellow students who made fun of him and called him disgusting for wanting to transition from female to male. He wanted to specifically kill kids who had called him names and broken his laptop.

He confirmed speaking with Erickson by Snapchat the night before to discuss his plan and says he “trashed” the house looking for a key to the safe but instead found an ax and crowbar.

He said he threatened Erickson with the ax, acting as if he was going to hit him with it.

He wrote in the closet where the safe was held “the voices win” and spraypainted Erickson’s mother’s car in the garage.

Mental health committee explores causes of school violence Panel put together by county commissioners meets for the first time

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Leaders in mental health, education and the criminal justice system sat around a table in a conference room at the Douglas County Department of Human Services building in Castle Rock. One by one, they introduced themselves before diving into a complex conversation on school violence.

“I think that the eyes of our nation are on us, and you are going to be the leaders to solve this problem,” Douglas County Commissioner Lora Thomas said to the group.

Members of the Supportive Mental Health for Students Funding Committee met for the first time June 21, six weeks after a school shooting at STEM School Highlands Ranch that left one student dead and eight others injured.

Two STEM parents and a parent from Sandy Hook Elementary, where a gunman shot and killed 20 children and six adults, attended the meeting as spectators.

On May 28, Douglas County commissioners voted to allocate $13.3 million toward school safety initiatives.

Their plan outlined an ongoing $3 million to fund 61 schools resource officers in the county by the 2021-22 school year, contingent on a $3 million annual match from schools in the county, along with the formation of two committees that would dictate spending of a $10 million onetime gift.

The Physical School Safety and Protection Funding Committee met for the first time June 14 at the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Substation in Highlands Ranch.

Members of the security committee — a mix of law enforcement, school district representatives, parents and security experts —strategized a plan for how to reach an agreement on school safety recommendations for the board of county commissioners by July 14.

The Mental Health for Students Funding Committee also aims to have recommendations for commissioners by mid-July.

At their first meeting, members discussed at length the correlation between mental illness and school violence, causes of school violence, access to care and best practices.

“School-based mental health services work,” said Sarah Davidon, research director at Mental Health Colorado, a nonprofit organization that advocates for the treatment and prevention of mental health and substance-use disorders. “Not only in terms of effectiveness, but the likelihood that students are going to follow through with that support.”

The committee’s nine members each bring a different perspective to the table.

Douglas County School District representatives interact with students on a daily basis.

Representatives from the 18th Judicial District work with kids who are caught in the criminal justice system.

Members from statewide mental health organizations

bring a breadth of knowledge on environmental factors that can lead to violence, such as trauma, violence in the household, bullying, and on best practices, such as a universal mental health screening.

The goal of the committee is to understand where violence comes from in order to prevent it from happening.

“We need to understand more, I think, about what is driving the violence,” said Sarah Ericson, deputy district attorney and director of the Diversion Counseling Program at the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office.

Committee members are compiling research and will reconvene at 8:30 a.m. June 28 at the county’s department of human services building, 4400 Castleton Court, Castle Rock.

Meet the members: Douglas County School District representatives Stephanie Crawford-Goetz, director of mental health services Keith Sousa, lead behavior specialist Charter school representative Julie Felske, psychologist/

counselor at Platte River Academy in Highlands Ranch Representatives appointed by Douglas County Commissioners Sarah Ericson, committee chair, director of the Diversion Counseling Program and deputy district attorney at the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office Doug Gray, chief probation officer at the 18th Judicial District Jason Hopcus, president of National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) for Arapahoe/ Douglas Counties Representatives recommended by the Douglas County Mental Health Initiative Sarah Davidon, research director at Mental Health Colorado Erin White, social Worker and site director at Manna Connect, a personal development program, and DCSD parent Mia Hayden and Melanie Zhou (rotating), co-founders of Oasis Mental Health, a nonprofit organization promoting mental health at ThunderRidge High School in Highlands Ranch

School board holds off on STEM contract decision

Board members considering a one-year deal for the charter

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Douglas County Board of Education postponed its vote on whether to rescind a three-year charter contract offer for STEM School Highlands Ranch and consider a one-year extension of the school’s current contract.

The resolution, introduced June 14 and considered at a lengthy June 18 board meeting, would have essentially tacked on one year to the school’s current, five-year contract, giving the district more time to address a list of concerns with the K-12 charter school that serves roughly 1,800 students and to negotiate a new contract. The resolution says the May 7 school shooting that left one student dead and eight others injured raised questions about the school’s safety and security.

The board will work to negotiate a contract with STEM by June 30, when the current deal expires. If negotiations are not reached by then, the board will vote on a motion to extend the current contract for one year, calling it “a grace period” for the school to address a hefty list of amendments in areas of safety, mental health, financial reporting, parent communication

Students at STEM School Highlands Ranch plead for community support at a June 18 Douglas County School Board meeting. The board ultimately decided to table its decision on whether to rescind the school’s three-year contract in favor of a one-year extension.

ALEX DEWIND and transparency.

“I’m struggling to find the words, but I am really intrigued with the notion of, if we could get there, if we could get to a place where we left off without the contract expiring, I think it would be my preference,” school board President David Ray said.

STEM students lined Wilcox Street in Castle Rock, waving signs, pleading for community support. Inside the school district’s headquarters, parents and students wearing white T-shirts with “#stemstrong” filled the second-floor boardroom. An overflow of impassioned STEM families stood at the base of the stairs, where they watched the hours-long meeting from a TV screen.

“This made us take several steps back in our healing,” Tess Pautler, a mother of two STEM students, said as she waited her turn to speak to the board.

Penny Eucker, STEM’s executive director, said she was disappointed by the board’s decision.

“After so much heartfelt testimony, I thought it would soften their hearts to do the right thing,” she said after the meeting. “But I think we are being held to a different standard, and parents and staff are confused as to why.”

Stalled negotiations On Jan. 8, the school board denied STEM’s request for a five-year contract renewal and approved a three-year deal with the following conditions: that the school adopt and publish a parent complaint-and-communication policy, show the school’s graduation standards meet the state’s requirements and provide a description of the school’s strategic plan to expand.

STEM planned to appeal that decision to the Colorado Board of Education. A three-year contract would hurt the school’s credit rating, leadership said at the time. STEM ultimately agreed to hold off on the appeal while it worked with the district to resolve the agreement.

Negotiations were nearly complete when the May 7 school shooting happened.

“The negotiations didn’t reconvene,” Ray said, adding that the resolution to extend STEM’s current contract for one year would allow “ample time”

for the district and charter school to address a growing list of concerns identified prior to the tragedy.

The one-year contract under consideration outlines 18 amendments, including: the administration of regular staff, parent, and student satisfaction surveys, which are to be sent to the district’s Choice Programming Office; timely and accurate financial reporting to the district; 100% staff participation in annual mandatory online trainings on respect in the workplace, standard response protocol, child abuse reporting and keeping students safe; and the hiring and retention of licensed special education teachers, mental health professionals and counselors, who must be current on suicide intervention skills and district threat assessment training. A full list of the amendments is available at https://bit.ly/2L1TnfV. Board members expressed hesitation in finalizing a mutual agreement with STEM by June 30.

“I have to go back to January, when I supported a three-year renewal, because I had significant concerns for students of STEM,” board member Krista Holtzmann said. “Those concerns have not been resolved, even though some of them have been specifically requested, and have not happened to this point.”

‘Trying circumstances’ On June 17, addressing the board’s resolution, STEM administration sent an email to parents outlining the school’s mental health and special education resources, academic success and security and emergency response protocols.

The school utilizes four counselors, two social workers, one psychologist and the suicide-prevention program “Sources of Strength.” For the 2019-20 school year, it will have a full-time school resource officer from the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office, along with a full-time private security guard, according to the email.

At the time of the shooting, STEM contracted with a private security firm and did not have a school resource officer. The sheriff ’s office opted not to renew its contract with the school prior to the 2018-19 school year because the school was mainly using its SRO to direct traffic, according to a letter from Sheriff Tony Spurlock to Eucker.

Also addressed in the June 17 email to STEM families were allegations made by an anonymous parent last December, claiming STEM’s climate and culture are out of control, alleging rampant student drug use, student violence due to a high-pressure environment and bullying, among numerous other accusations. STEM said school officials investigated the allegations and found them to be false.

STEM’s letter reads: “We hope the Board will reconsider its decision to restrict the school to a single-year charter renewal at a time when the community is recovering from the most trying circumstances it has ever faced.”

School district pledges funds for seven more SROs The district will pull from reserves to match law enforcement agencies

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The school board has approved money to provide additional school resource officers for the 2019-20 school year.

At a June 18 meeting, the Douglas County School District Board of Education approved next year’s budget, which draws $429,000 from reserves to help fund seven additional SROs at neighborhood middle schools.

Local law enforcement agencies will cover 50% of the cost, as they do for the current SROs assigned to each of the county’s nine traditional high schools, as well as charter school SkyView Academy and Valor Christian, a private high school. In many cases, those resource officers also oversee the high schools’ feeder middle schools.

The Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office will provide five of the SROs, and the Castle Rock and Parker police department will each provide one.

The board’s decision was made about six weeks after the May 7 shooting at STEM School Highlands Ranch that left one student dead and eight others injured. The tragedy spurred communitywide discussion on whether a district that serves 68,000 students has enough SROs. STEM School Highlands Ranch did not have a school resource officer this past academic year, and instead contracted with a private security firm.

Three weeks after the shooting, the

Douglas County Board of Commissioners rolled out a plan it says could provide 48 more school resource officers to Douglas County schools in the next three years, bringing the total from 13 to 61.

The county has pledged $3 million a year to support the SROs, but the money is contingent on an annual match of $3 million from schools in the county. DCSD staff and board members said funding the match would be nearly impossible.

School board President David Ray confirmed that the district will be splitting SRO costs with local law enforcement agencies.

“It is still unclear how the Board of County Commissioners plan to distribute excess taxpayer revenue that they have earmarked for school safety,” Ray said in an email correspondence.

Kory Nelson, the parent of a student at Legend High School in Parker, serves on the county’s Physical School Safety and Protection Funding Committee, formed in recent weeks to make recommendations to county commissioners on how to spend a one-time gift of $10 million for school safety and mental health resources.

During public comment, Nelson called the board’s decision to fund an additional seven SROs a “great move.”

“The question is whether or not it’s enough,” he added.

The National Association of School Resource Officers used to recommend one SRO per 1,000 students but now advises schools take individual factors into consideration. That could include a building’s location, campus size and culture.

Defense attorneys asked STEM judge to recuse herself Why the judge was asked to leave remains unclear

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Earlier this month, the defense team for the older suspect in the STEM School Highlands Ranch shooting requested the judge presiding over the case recuse herself less than one hour after prosecutors asked for certain case files to be unsuppressed.

The judge, District Court Judge Therese Slade, initially presided over both suspects’ court proceedings but has since recused herself from the younger suspect’s case. It’s unclear if she still presides over the older suspect’s case.

Devon Erickson, 18, and Alec McKinney, 16, face 48 charges on suspicion of carrying out the May 7 shooting that left one dead and eight more injured.

Senior Kendrick Castillo was killed.

One of the eight injured is believed to have been shot by a security guard on scene, not the suspects, according to a court document.

Their cases remained entirely suppressed until June 20 when formal

charges and the probable cause affidavit in Erickson’s case were released.

Slade’s order to release the Erickson files also detailed the request from his defense attorneys for her to recuse herself. That was precipitated by a motion the defense filed to unsuppress a court file on June 6, one day before the suspect would appear in court.

“Less than an hour later, Defendant filed a motion seeking the recusal of the judge in this case,” Slade wrote.

“A motion to recuse, by law, stays any further substantive proceedings in the case.”

She did not explain why the defense attorneys requested she leave the case.

The court still held the June 7 hearing to address “non-substantive scheduling matters.”

In that hearing, Slade said the defense requested more information and time to supplement the recusal motion. She then considered their request incomplete and the stay lifted.

Later than night, Slade granted prosecutors’ motion to release court files and scheduled their release for June 12, pending questions she wanted answered regarding necessary redactions.

The order never went into effect, she said.

On June 11, prosecutors answered the questions but before she could consider their response or redactions could be completed, the defense said they would not supplement their request for recusal further, putting it back into effect, and substantive proceedings were again halted.

The court has since ruled on their recusal motion and released some documents. Slade did not say what her ruling on the recusal motion was. A spokeswoman for the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office said they could not say if Slade remains on the case because it is still suppressed. Defense attorneys were not immediately available for comment.

It was revealed Slade recused herself from McKinney’s case when he last appeared in court on June 14, but before a new judge, District Court Judge Jeffrey Holmes. Holmes said the defense also requested Slade’s recusal in that case.

Documents in McKinney’s case are still sealed and his name is redacted from documents in Erickson’s case.

Eighteenth Judicial District Attorney George Brauchler is prosecuting the 16-year-old as an adult although defense attorneys are working to have the case transferred back to juvenile court.

They then set it on fire. The fire burned out and they left.

He stated they knew they could get through the middle school entrance of the K-12 charter school without being checked. He knew students he didn’t like would be in in the classroom they targeted.

Erickson was also a student in the class.

They entered the classroom from different doors. He said Erickson shut the door in a way as to prevent it from being opened from the outside. They each pulled out their guns and said, “Nobody move.”

McKinney said Erickson fired the first shot and then he began firing.

McKinney emptied two guns, was confronted by students and a teacher but escaped and left the room. He planned to kill himself outside the school but didn’t know how to work the third gun he obtained.

He was then confronted by the armed security guard at gunpoint and complied with the guard’s orders to get on the ground.

McKinney told investigators he has experienced suicidal and homicidal thoughts since he was 12, “and more recently in the last few weeks when he planned the school shooting.”

17 county jails receive funding for opioid treatment Medication-assisted treatment getting $1.9 million in state assistance STAFF REPORT

The Colorado Department of Human Services, Office of Behavioral Health has awarded funding to 17 county jails to continue or initiate medication-assisted treatment for people with opioid-use disorder.

According to a news release, the state is awarding nearly $1.9 million to the 17 county sheriff ’s offices that applied for MAT funding through Sept. 29, 2020. MAT combines medication with behavioral therapy and is considered to be the most effective way to treat opioid-use disorder, the release said.

Up to this point, the Office of Behavioral Health has funded medicationassisted treatment services in five of the 17 county jails: Boulder, Denver, Douglas, Jefferson and Pueblo. Nearly 500 people received medication-assisted treatment before or upon release from jail through this funding since 2017.

“In Colorado we continue to increase the availability of MAT services statewide for those who need it, including treatment for people who are incarcerated, in many cases as a result of their addiction,” Robert Werthwein, director of the Office of Behavioral Health, said in the release. “We know that the risk of opioid overdose drastically increases after a period of abstinence such as

incarceration, and intervening at this juncture is key to our efforts to reduce overdoses.”

A recent study in North Carolina found that in the first two weeks after being released from prison, former inmates were 40 times more likely to die of an opioid overdose than others, the release said. When looking at heroin-specific overdoses in the same population, the study found that formerly incarcerated individuals’ likelihood of overdose death increased to 74 times the norm within the first two weeks after release, the release said.

The Office of Behavioral Health is providing the funding through the State Opioid Response Grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, and thanks to recently passed legislation (SB 19-008), Colorado has ensured this funding can continue even after the grant is over.

After struggling with depression, area man tells his story Family speaks up to challenge mental health stigma for men

BY CASEY VAN DIVIER CVANDIVIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

wenty-two years after he first started struggling with depression, Geoff Grandi’s symptoms hadn’t gone away.

They had only intensified, exacerbated by a number of factors — his job, his mother’s death, an earlier divorce and the stress of being a new dad.

But what bothered him most was the way these stressors made him irritable toward his family. And he found himself constantly worried about his relationship with his second wife, Whitney, and their newborn son, Woods.

“That’s such a fear to say, `I think my depression has pushed me into a violent tendency,’ ” the Arvada resident said. “I would just tell her to leave me. I needed to get away, and I thought everyone else would be better off.”

As he prepared for a friend’s bachelor weekend in Breckenridge last summer, he said he also prepared to take his life, bringing a loaded gun with him.

“But it was a fulfilling weekend. I felt loved,” he said. “I ended up not

Geoff Grandi bonds with his son, Woods, after starting treatment at West Pines Behavioral Health. “I’ve been taking more time for myself and realizing I, as a person, am important,” he said.

COURTESY OF GEOFF AND WHITNEY GRANDI following through.”

When he returned home, Geoff, now 35, gave his gun to Whitney and

visited the ER and was transferred to West Pines Behavioral Health, a psychiatric hospital at 3400 N. Lutheran Parkway in Wheat Ridge. It was the first time he’d sought professional help for his depression.

“As men, we need to be tough. We can’t let our families down, we can’t let our friends down,” he said about why he waited so long. “It’s because of society’s expectations.”

Now in an outpatient program with the hospital, Geoff — with Whitney — has been sharing his story as part of Let’s Talk Colorado, an annual mental health campaign by the TriCounty Health Department. The campaign seeks to raise awareness around mental health with a goal of lessening the stigma associated with it and has focused this year on men in particular, encouraging them to speak up about their struggles.

“Men don’t seek care at the same rate women do,” said John Douglas, executive director of Tri-County Health, “even though numbers show they suffer from depression, anxiety and other obstacles to their wellbeing the same as everyone else.”

Looking for solutions Those involved with the campaign have pointed to the significant difference between suicide rates for men and women. According to the Colorado Health Institute, in 2017 nearly 900 of Colorado’s 1,175 suicides were committed by men.

“We need to be talking about mental health in very much the same way we talk about physical health,” said Glenn Most, executive director at West Pines, a campaign partner. “If people in the public eye can talk about it, that certainly helps lift that stigma.”

Experts say that stigma stems from traditional gender roles and societal expectatiions, which lead many men to avoid talking about psychological or emotional struggles.

The Grandis suggested that new resources for men could contribute to the conversation, including more advertisements and coverage about the topic in the news or in podcasts, which, Geoff and Whitney said, have made a difference for them.

“We need these things showing what the symptoms look like,” Whitney said, “not just for dads and their families, but for all relationships.”

Phil Stockton agreed. As clinician and program manager at Khesed Wellness in Denver, which provides affordable mental healthcare services, Stockton sees far fewer male patients than female patients, he said.

He suggested city leaders, such as police and fire chiefs, could affect change by encouraging men in the community to talk more about mental health. This would especially benefit men older than 30 years old, who are the least likely to come to his practice, he said, though he has seen an increasing number of male patients younger than 30.

“There’s this new acceptance amongst that generation that I find really exciting,” he said. “But at the same time, I’m not seeing anything near that for people who are 30 and up.”

He also believes the stigma may change if more men take up careers in mental health. According to a 2016 report from the American Psychological Association, only 35% of psychologists are male.

“If a male client is reaching out and they’re wanting to see a male clinician, and then you factor in insurance, the choices get narrower,” Stockton said. “It’s important to look at how we can make the field appeal to men.”

Steps in the right direction While those seeking to support men acknowledge there’s plenty of work to do, they also feel the past few years have heralded in progress.

“It may seem small, but even the fact that Geoff is sharing his story and the media is willing to cover this topic is progress,” Most said.

“I’m not sure that would have happened years ago.”

The Grandis continue working toward progress.

“It’s something we have to work on every day,” Whitney said. “There are still bad days, but there are also good days.”

Geoff agreed, saying the family makes constant improvement through regular communication, couple’s counseling and the embracing of life’s ups and downs.

“I’ve been taking more time for myself and realizing I, as a person, am important,” Geoff said. “It’s showed me that yes, I can be a good dad.”

Studies explore hazards of processed foods Complex interactions of body, products eyed by researchers

BY CANDICE CHOI ASSOCIATED PRESS

Chips, soda and frozen pizzas tend to be full of salt, sugar and fat, but now scientists are trying to understand if there’s something else about such processed foods that might be bad for us.

Already, the spread of cheap, packaged foods has been linked to rising obesity rates around the world. Yet advice to limit processed foods can seem unhelpful, given how convenient they are and the growing array of products that fall into the category.

While three recent studies offer more clues on how our increasingly industrialized food supply may be affecting our health, they also underscore how difficult nutrition science and advice can be. Here’s what they say.

What does ‘processed’ mean?

Whether it’s curing, freezing, milling or pasteurization, nearly all foods undergo some type of processing. Even though processing itself doesn’t automatically make food unhealthy, “processed foods” is generally a negative term.

To more precisely identify the processed foods of most concern, scientists came up with a system that groups foods into four categories. It’s far from perfect, but the system says highly processed foods are made mostly of industrialized ingredients and additives, with little to no intact whole foods.

Sodas, packaged cookies, instant noodles and chicken nuggets are some examples of highly processed foods. But also included are products that can seem wholesome, like breakfast cereals, energy bars and some yogurts.

What’s wrong with processed foods?

Cheap packaged foods are everywhere including checkout lines, gas stations and vending machines, and a very small four-week clinical trial might deepen our understanding of why that’s likely fueling obesity rates.

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health found people ate an average of 500 extra calories a day when fed mostly processed foods, compared with when the same people were fed minimally processed foods. That’s even though researchers tried to match the meals for nutrients like fat, fiber and sugar.

The 20 participants were allowed to eat as much or as little as they wanted, and were checked into a clinic so their health and behavior could be monitored.

That’s not all the bad news.

In another study based on ques-

tionnaires, researchers in France found people who ate more processed foods were more likely to have heart disease. A similar study in Spain found eating more processed foods was linked to a higher risk of death in general.

What is it about processed foods?

Beyond the fact they taste really good, there might other reasons why it’s so hard to stop eating foods like cheese puffs and ice cream.

When fed minimally processed foods, people in the clinical trial produced more of a hormone that suppresses appetite, and less of a hormone that causes hunger. The reason for the biological reaction isn’t clear. Another finding: People ate processed foods faster.

“Those foods tend to be softer and easier to chew and swallow,”

Meals in the two diets were rated as being similarly pleasant, but Hall noted it’s possible participants were saying what they thought they should. The processed food diet included foods like salted nuts and whole milk, compared with unsalted nuts and lower-fat milk for the unprocessed diet.

With the French and Spanish studies, there could be other habits and environmental factors that explain the differences in health risks. The studies also didn’t reflect the broader population. In the Spanish study, participants were college graduates and relatively younger. And though processed food was tied to a greater risk of death, the total number of deaths was still relatively small.

said Kevin Hall, a researcher at the National Institutes of Health who led the study.

Hall noted the source of nutrients might make a difference. Fibers from whole fruits and vegetables, for instance, may be better for making people feel full than the types of fiber added to packaged foods such as cookies, yogurt and even soda.

For the French study, author Mathilde Touvier also noted the largely unexamined effects of the “cocktail” of additives used to make the various processed foods we eat.

All three studies come with big caveats. The U.S. study was tiny and individual behavior varied widely: Some ate about the same amount of calories on both diets, and others ate far more on the processed diet.

State high court clears path for TABOR ballot issue Group hopes to persuade voters to get rid of amendment approved in 1992

BY JAMES ANDERSON ASSOCIATED PRESS

Proponents of a Colorado ballot initiative to eliminate a constitutional amendment that strictly limits government’s ability to tax and spend can proceed with their campaign to put the question on the 2020 ballot, the state’s Supreme Court ruled in a decision released June 17.

Justices ruled 5-2 that the Title Board, which vets ballot questions put forward by citizens and lawmakers, erred in rejecting the 2020 initiative to ask voters to eliminate the 1992 Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights.

The board determined in January that the proposal violated a requirement that ballot questions focus on a single subject. TABOR, as the 1992 voterapproved amendment is known, affects a complex array of taxation, bonding and spending issues.

Generally, TABOR requires voter approval for increasing taxes, issuing bonds, and spending by local and state government. It requires refunds of taxes in excess of annual limits. Critics blame it for chronic state underinvestment in education and roads. Supporters credit it for imposing fiscal discipline on elected officials and for limiting taxes.

Colorado’s Democratic-controlled Legislature has placed a measure on the November 2019 ballot to ask voters if the state can retain excess tax revenue.

House Speaker KC Becker argued the state should do all it can — especially at a time of sustained economic growth — to address underfunded priorities.

Most Republicans long have defended TABOR, crediting it in large part for Colorado’s strong economy, which grew by 3.5% in 2017.

The Supreme Court ordered the Title Board to certify the repeal question so proponents can begin collecting the more than 124,000 voter signatures required to put the question on the 2020 ballot.

The liberal Denver-based Colorado Fiscal Institute is behind the initiative and challenged the board’s decision in court. Institute executive director Carol Hedges said Monday that TABOR “has made Colorado an outlier among U.S. states in the way we raise money for investment in our communities.”

“We’re the only state in the country that has limited the authority and responsibility of our elected officials to determine how to tax and whom to tax,” Hedges said. “Very few other states say that when the economy is booming, they can’t save more or expand their

investment of tax dollars.”

“Politicians and big government organizations have been calling for an end to the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights for years,” said Jesse Mallory, Colorado director for the conservative advocacy group Americans for Prosperity. “Now they get their chance to try to convince the people of Colorado that they don’t deserve to vote on tax increases — a right AFP firmly believes Coloradans should have.”

In the majority opinion, Justice Richard Gabriel wrote that the “initiative could not be written more simply or directly. It essentially asks voters a single question: Should TABOR be repealed in full?”

In her dissent, Justice Monica Marquez said the decision “defies logic, the constitution, and decades of this court’s case law” on the single-subject rule, which was adopted by voters in 1994. Justice Brian Boatright joined the dissent.

Man sentenced in death of Castle Rock woman Barbara Riehl, 92, died in 2018 after a school bus collided with her vehicle

CONTRACT FROM PAGE 6

More than 50 STEM parents and students took the podium during public comment at the June 18 meeting to vouch for STEM and recount heroic actions taken by students and teachers during the May 7 tragedy.

Emma Goodwill, a 2019 graduate who was friends with the sole fatality of the shooting, Kendrick Castillo, spoke of the apps she created and friends she made while at STEM. She recognized that mental

tenced after pleading guilty to careless driving resulting in death.

Steven Blair, of Franktown, then 70, was charged with careless driving resulting in death and failing to yield the right of way when turning left at the intersection of Fifth and Perry streets in Castle Rock. The Dec. 7, 2018 accident left Barbara Riehl, of Castle Rock, dead.

Blair pleaded guilty on May 15 to careless driving, according to a spokeswoman for the 18th Judicial

District Attorney’s Office.

He was sentenced on June 10 to 250 hours of useful public service, one year of supervised probation and ordered to make a $1,000 donation to the victim’s favorite charity, the Navy Memorial in Washington, D.C. Blair was driving a school bus for Colorado Early Colleges Network, a charter school system, at the time of the accident. Five teenagers were on board, but no one other than Riehl was injured.

Riehl had to be extricated from her vehicle and transported to an area hospital, where she later died. Police said at the time they believed Blair pulled out in front of Riehl, causing the collision.

The spokeswoman for the 18 th Judicial District said the court considered Blair’s lack of criminal history and the lack of allegations he was driving distracted when deciding against sentencing him to any jail time.

health and security are issues that need to be resolved.

“I know that you want to help. I know that you are also heartbroken from the shooting,” Goodwill said to board members. “I want you to know that what’s needed now is not your watchful eye and authority.

What’s needed now is a hand.”

Nicole Churchill-Jones, who has a son at STEM and a daughter at ThunderRidge High School, said the charter school’s security “exceeds” the neighborhood school.

“The tragedy of May 7 could’ve happened at any school, and if you think that is not the case, you are closing your eyes to reality,” Churchill-Jones said.

A misunderstanding?

School board member Wendy Vogel said she believes STEM parents and students misunderstood the resolution to extend the charter’s contract for one year. Revoking the charter’s contract was never up for discussion, board members stressed.

“The current contract is due to end on June 30. If we do nothing at all, then the STEM school would be in a lot worse position,” Vogel said. “This allows us to go into the next school year in the exact same situation as the last school year, knowing that STEM was going to apply for a renewal of the contract.”

She added: “I think its really un-

fortunate that there has been what I perceive as being attacks on our staff, who went above and beyond to support this school in the immediate time after this crisis.”

Board member Kevin Leung expressed similar concerns, which caused an outburst of anger from STEM families in the boardroom.

“After this crisis, many of us spent a lot of time trying to help, because you are our students, you are our constituents, you are our parents. You are one of us,” Leung said. “I am just not happy that — I don’t know what message you got.”

Board members tentatively scheduled a special meeting for June 29, when they expect to reach a decision.

Home projects suffer from worker shortage Construction trades have never recovered from exodus during recession

BY KAREN SCHWARTZ ASSOCIATED PRESS

Lynn Osborne has been remodeling two homes. They are different styles, in different states, with different contractors. But there has been one constant: delays due to a shortage of skilled labor.

The two-year remodel of her primary home in Fort Collins was to update and upgrade the 1990s house, and it included a small extension. It was completed last year, except for the landscaping, which is still under way.

That general contractor relied heavily on subcontractors, she said, and sometimes they wouldn’t show, or would arrive days late, or did shoddy work and were fired.

Her remodel of an old family beach retreat in New England took a Sears kit home down to the studs. The projected completion date was June 2018, but it’s still not done because the contractor, who has been doing most of the work himself, is stretched and inattentive.

“He’d say, `I’ll be out there next week,’ and next week would turn into next month, and next month would be

six months,” she said.

Current estimates indicate there are about 300,000 unfilled jobs in the construction industry, and the industry is expected to need an additional 747,000 workers by 2026, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

An August survey of nearly 375 members of the National Kitchen and Bath Association found that almost two-thirds of the respondents said they had difficulties hiring skilled workers in the previous year, and nearly 70% felt the problem had gotten worse since 2016.

“Labor shortages have impacted start dates and completion dates on construction and renovation projects, with NKBA members citing delays on 30% of jobs,” said Bill Darcy, chief executive officer of the trade association.

A look at 15 different trades found shortages in them all, Darcy said in a telephone interview from NKBA headquarters in Hackettstown, New Jersey. And as with previous years, he said, one of the greatest needs was for carpenters, who do rough-in work and framing, and finish carpenters, who hang cabinets, do millwork, put down flooring and install molding.

Finding a quality finishing carpenter was one of the biggest frustrations in Osborne’s Fort Collins remodel.

“One guy got started on the basement and just left, so to find somebody to pick up where he left off was hard,”

she said.

The seeds of the current labor shortage were planted during the Great Recession, when a lack of construction jobs prompted many workers to leave the industry.

“Not enough of them have returned to help us close the gap,” Darcy said.

Compounding the problem is the graying of the remaining workforce, with the median age for a construction worker at 42.5 years, according to January figures from the Labor Bureau. It’s estimated that for every five workers retiring from the industry, only one is entering it, said Silvia Lattoz, Governance and Global Relations Senior Manager at NKBA. Younger people aren’t interested in construction careers because they think the jobs don’t pay well, are too dirty or physically demanding, or mistakenly think the jobs don’t use much technology, Lattoz said.

“There’s definitely some kind of stigma tied to this,” she said.

Recruitment efforts underway Players in the industry are ramping up efforts to address the impending crisis, launching incentives to try to recruit new workers, especially young people, to the trades.

The Home Depot Foundation announced last year it was committing $50 million to skilled trades training, with plans to attract 20,000 people by 2028.

“We want to bring shop class back, from coast to coast,” Shannon Gerber, executive director of the foundation, said in a release. The program focuses on supporting veterans, as well as underserved high schools.

Lowe’s last year started offering employees tuition and other incentives to train for jobs such as carpentry, plumbing, and appliance repair. More than 1,350 associates were enrolled in the Track to the Trades program this spring, Lowe’s spokeswoman Jennifer L. Weber said.

In April, Lowe’s and 60 of its suppliers and partners debuted a new program called Generation T, an online marketplace for jobs, apprenticeships and education programs in construction. It’s also on Twitter and Facebook.

“If we don’t fill the existing skilled trade gap, our businesses, homes and communities will suffer,” Weber said.

The National Association of Home Builders, meanwhile, sponsors student chapters in high schools and colleges. The clubs currently have more than 4,500 members.

The NAHB also supports immigration reform. Foreign-born workers were twice as likely to be employed in construction last year as workers born in the United States, according to the Department of Labor.

VOICES

Concentrated innuendo brings about maximum effectiveness

ix words may not seem like a lot, but think of the evocations of “I love you. Or do I?” You have a story, complete with conflict.

QUIET Entries in the sixword story contest DESPERATION came from California, Illinois, Ohio, and Colorado. From a well-known, local radio voice. From an 80-year old, former high school English teacher, and from a 17-year-old aspiring writer.

Craig Marshall I received entries from two notable Smith Colorado artists, and one each from a husband and wife.

Many of the stories were straightforward, a few were oblique, some were witty.

Here are the best ones.

Gretchen Goetz (Santa Monica), submitted, “We have five. Will bring them.” There was no explanation.

It reminded me of the cryptic title of a Jack Nicholson film. If you have ever wondered what “Five Easy Pieces” means, it refers to the title on a piano recital program that appeared in a scene that was cut.

My high school English teacher, Sharene Schmalz (Cincinnati) sent, “Bunnies lost to the cat today.”

I replied, “After 80 glorious years of Chaucer, Dostoevsky, Faulkner, and Shirley MacLaine, you send a story about tiny field animals being confronted and consumed by a feral cat?”

“Yes.” Anne McWhite (Arvada) wrote, “Climate change solutions: do or die.”

Art McWhite (Arvada) wrote, “Big bang collapse: all’s said done.”

One of my favorites brought a smile with it: “Why do I read your column!” was written by Parker’s Pete Miller. It wasn’t a question, exactly. It seemed like an exasperation.

Painter Amy Metier (Boulder) wrote a six-word mystery: “If your evil twin wants to.”

You might recognize the name Scott Arbough (Castle Rock), who entered a bit of existentialism: “Where you are, there you are.”

Stanley Gould (Castle Rock) took the opportunity to pitch his new “platform for finding and building local communities.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Parker points to ponder Your open space, high-density article in the June 14 paper has some interesting points. To start with, the first line “Parker town officials have a vision.”

It’s too bad the town officials have their own agenda other than representing the people that they were elected to represent. Seems like their main agenda is to generate revenue. The PACE Center does not have enough parking for its own events as it is. Let alone trying to add more competition for the already under-planned downtown parking.

Another line I find interesting from the mayor is “The town council is elected to make decisions which THEY FEEL are best for all of Parker.” This is coming from the same official that is putting a question on the ballot to extend council term limits.

Don’t get me wrong. I am all for a vibrant downtown area, if it is done correctly. Not everyone wants to sit inside a building or see all the wildlife pushed out. I moved here because of the open town feel where you can see wildlife while walking or biking.

I think that the opposition group (Save PACE Parking and Pine Curve 3.0) has the right idea and we should all volunteer to help get the petition to get the issue on the ballot for the people to decide vs the five-person board where only three out of the five get to decide what “we” want.

Won’t get fooled again Monday, I was approved to speak at the June 18 meeting, receiving confirmation stating: “Public Comment is scheduled…at 6:10 p.m.”

I arrived at 6 p.m. to dozens of people from STEM school filling the sidewalks, lobby and stairwell. Armed police said the board just voted to delay public comment until 8:30 and the room was at capacity. I was called first when public comment began at 9. I rushed up the stairs, through the crowds, to the room but did not make it in time. You skipped me. The police expected you to call me again, but you did not do so before I had to leave at 10 to get home to my children.

Four hours and I never got to speak.

Countless parents and students pleaded for STEM school to be offered a five-year contract. Instead of compassion, you put more stress and worry on these parents and children who have already endured so much. But I was not there to speak about STEM. Many bills were recently enacted that affect the schools. I wanted to speak to them, and specifically ask how DCSD will implement them. Specifically, what curriculum will be use to comply with the new sex ed law?

You disrespected me and the other parents, and our time. I am truly ashamed of our school board. You fooled the voters last election. I don’t think you will fool us again.

After “Knowledge Power. Get Knowledge. Get Power,” he added a few hundred additional words about his project.

The most unusual entry was submitted by Ken Faig Jr. (Glenview, Illinois).

It consisted of six mathematical symbols that translate to, “Not no one equals some one.”

Laura H. (Arvada), “Cheap land: Pele erupts, owners burned.”

Kendle Frank (Parker), 17, “Be brave. Contact my restless heart.”

Brett Ganyard (Aurora), “American flags continually at half staff.”

Bill Hines (Highlands Ranch) might have read the news the day he wrote: “Took a hike. Lost at night.”

Courage and conviction when faced with conflict

here is no avoiding it, there will come a time when we will all face some type of conflict in our lives. We can could find ourselves in a conflict over opinions, we may have disagreements at work or at home, and we may even be conflicted in our own heart and mind about doing WINNING something or WORDS making a difficult decision of some kind.

For some of us, conflicts are no issue at all. We take them on and deal with whatever it is so we can get past it and move on. For others, conflict is Michael Norton really hard. For those of us who have wrestled with conflict, over time we tend to become conflict avoidant. We will do anything to try and avoid a conflict or we will prolong it until it becomes so bad, we are finally forced to face it. And that never ends well.

Another strategy for those of us who hate conflict is to wish it away or hope that it will just go away.

This strategy typically never works

— as a matter of fact, the longer we wait, the worse things usually become.

Some of the best coaching I ever received around this came many years ago. I was encouraged to do the hardest thing first. On any given day, whatever the hardest task or conversation I had to do or have, I should tackle those first. This was great advice and has helped me tremendously over the years. If I didn’t tackle the hard things first, they would occupy my time and I couldn’t focus on the other things I had to do as the hardest ones were still there, creating worry, fear, and doubt in my heart and head. As soon as I got past the hard conversation or difficult task, and any conflict, I was free, mentally and emotionally, and much more productive.

In order to address conflicts and do the hardest things first, we must have courage and conviction.

The courage to say or do what we know is right, and the conviction to stand behind our beliefs. If we are stressed or unhappy about the way certain things are happening, and if

we have been trying to avoid a conflict that has been brewing, all we need to do is find that 20 seconds of bravery that it takes to initiate a conversation and take action.

The hope is that the majority of our lives will be spent living conflict free.

Although there are a few people who thrive on conflict and like to even stir the pot a little to create conflict, most of us would prefer to avoid conflict and create harmony wherever we can. We each have a unique personality style and for some, dealing with conflict is easy, for other personality styles, it is much harder. And regardless of our personality style, the best way to deal with conflict is to have the courage and conviction to do what we know is right, rip the BandAid off, and deal with the hardest things first.

From the movie “We Bought a Zoo,”

Matt Damon’s character Benjamin Mee said it best: “You know, sometimes all you need is 20 seconds of insane courage. Just literally 20 seconds of embarrassing bravery.

And I promise you, something great will come of it.” And that “something great” could be just the thing we need to get past and through any conflict we are facing. That “something great” could be the freedom that we will enjoy from finally doing or saying what we know is true and right.

So how about you? Is there a conflict you are hoping will just go away by itself ? Or have you given yourself the freedom that comes with resolving and dealing with conflict quickly?

Either way I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we have the courage and conviction to address any conflicts we may face, it really will be a better than good week.

I think Syta was referring to ball bearing balls. The bearings are the housing. However, a run through ball

‘He meant so much to this community’ Denver Broncos honor late owner Pat Bowlen

BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

O

n Jan. 25, 1998, Littleton residents Sandy and David Alexander were sitting at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego as they witnessed the Denver Broncos win the franchise’s first Super Bowl. Following the game, Broncos owner Pat Bowlen handed over the Lombardi Trophy, awarded to Super Bowl winners, to quarterback John Elway, saying “This one is for John.”

Following the Broncos’ Super Bowl victory in 2016, Elway, now general manager and president of football operations for the team, held the Lombardi Trophy and said, “This one is for Pat.” Bowlen, who had been fighting Alzheimer’s disease, died on June 13 at the age of 75. On June 18, there was a free, open-house tribute at Broncos Stadium at Mile High.

More than 5,000 people came to the tribute to honor the life of Bowlen.

The team had artifacts on display, including Bowlen’s fur coat, the team’s Lombardi trophies, game balls and more.

“He gave us a winning team that we didn’t have before. He put together some of the best teams we’ve ever had,” said David Alexander, who has had season tickets for Broncos games for 45 years with Sandy.

Outside of football, Bowlen made significant contributions to the Denver Boys & Girls Club and donated more than $35 million to charitable organizations in Denver since 1993.

“He was a real gentleman to everyone,” Sandy Alexander said. “We’ve been around the Broncos for years and he was just an upstanding man, and it was hard to see what happened to him.”

Bowlen will be enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Aug. 3 along with former Denver Broncos player Champ Bailey.

“It feels like someone I had met died,” Denver resident Hugo Ramirez said. “He meant so much to this community and to this city.”

Pat Bowlen’s statue rests outside of Broncos Stadium at Mile High. Residents laid flowers below his statue after his death.

‘Colorado’s Historic Churches’ ready for summer reading Local writer shares photos, stories of state’s houses of worship

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

They’re built from wood, brick, adobe, stone and combinations thereof and vary in size from small chapel to ones that seat many hundred parishioners. Many still function every Sunday and at other times their community needs them-for weddings, memorial services and an occasional concert or theatrical production.

Littleton writer, historian and Colorado native Linda Wommack, author of several books of Colorado history, has collected photographs and compiled notes from many of the state’s historic churches and published an account of them: “Colorado’s Historic Churches.”

It will be a nice addition to the Colorado bookshelf — or perhaps readers have a small collection of books they carry in the car as our family did when exploring the many historic mountain towns. It will be nice to step into these buildings, knowing something of their stories.

Mining camps spread across the state, followed in many cases by a railroad that brought other citizens to fill miner’s needs. In many cases,

after a town or mining camp was functioning, especially if there were women involved, some residents sensed that something was missing — a spiritual life. They started up small congregations, meeting in homes or public buildings at first, then led by a particular individual, a committee or a large congregation, found a vacant lot — or an individual would donate a lot in some cases, and/or lead the way in raising a building.

Many are still used by congregations, but not all.

Some had distinctive shapes and designs and many were constructed in what we call “Carpenter Gothic.” A familiar nearby example is St. Philip in the Field Church on Plum Creek in Douglas County, with its accompanying Bear Canon Cemetery, Wommack writes about builder Newton S. Grout, a New Englander inspired by churches of his youth. The congregation was formed in 1870 and the church and cemetery are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Also listed is Castle Rock’s St. Francis of Assisi Church, which eventually became the Old Stone Church Restaurant when its congregation moved on to a larger facility.

Chapters focus on areas The book is organized with a South Platte River Valley Chapter; Chapter Two is The Mountain Valleys; Chapter Three is The Arkansas River Valley and Chapter Four is The Rio Grande Valley.

Bishop Nicholas C. Matz helped build Catholic churches across the prairie as towns developed. Wommack writes of the severe weather on the eastern plains in Sterling, where hail demolished the timber Catholic church three times. Parishioners asked Matz to send a resident priest and a brick and stone church was dedicated in 1911, with 500 Catholics in attendance.

The arrival of the railroad in Colorado brought a number of Irish workers and the need for Matz to build a new Denver Catholic parish, built on five lots at the corner of Larimer and Machebeuf streets, located between trolley and rail tracks in the area now called Five Points In Denver, some large churches grew, such as Trinity Methodist Episcopal, designed by Denver’s first licensed architect, Robert S. Roeschlaub, which still stands out on Broadway. Zion Baptist, the first black congregation, at Ogden and 24th, has celebrated its 150th anniversary.

Wommack writes of Baby Doe Tabor’s connection with Denver’s Sacred Heart Church — and her husband Horace’s deathbed conversion as he lay ill at the Windsor Hotel. That church, supported for many years by Father Casey, became Denver’s first designated historic property by the city council in 1975. The Colorado Historical Society has helped in recent years toward further restoration of the fragile landmark.

In 1882, Temple Emanuel, the first Jewish synagogue, was built, designed by architect Frank E. Edbrooke, “including Moorish and Romanesque details,” the author says. Other major Denver churches followed.

Convent began in 1912 In Littleton, the Carmelite Convent was established in 1912, beginning with the wedding of Jacques B. Benedict and June Brown, who bought an old red brick farm house and began renovations, transforming it into a

“Beaux Art-Arts Villa of sorts.” (He also designed Littleton’s Town Hall, Carnegie Library and First Presbyterian Church.) Benedict hired artisans to paint frescos on several walls and hired landscape architect S.R. DeBoer to design the grounds.

The couple lived in the Benedict House for 35 years, and after the Benedict’s death, it was given to the Order of Carmelite Nuns, who live and worship there now. Improvements include a chapel, connected by a matching red brick arch.

In the plains, near Julesberg, is the Virginia Dale church, named after the wife of the “notorious Jack Slade.”

And in Boulder County, the First Baptist Church is the “finest example of Late Gothic Revival architecture in the state.

Central City, Georgetown, Silver Plume and Breckenridge all developed churches and in the Breckenridge area, the reader learns more about the legendary Methodist preacher Father John Lewis Dyer, who traveled through the many mining camps, sometimes on snowshoes, to preach to the residents. He caused confusion in Breckenridge by ringing the firemen’s bell to call folks to church … with permission of city officials.

Elsewhere in the western part of the state, one reads about Viejo San Acacio Chapel in Costilla County — one of Colorado’s oldest churches, and Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish in Conejos, the first sanctioned Catholic Church in what would become the State of Colorado, where Father Machebeuf said his first Mass “before the dawn, by the light of pinon wood fires,” he wrote…

This large paperback book is crammed with historic photographs, from Wommack’s collection and that of the Denver Public Library and others she has tracked down.

Perhaps it will lead a reader on happy summer excursions in the mountain towns to learn more of their histories.

‘Living history’ locomotive returns home after 12 years And just in time for Colorado Railroad Museum’s 60th anniversary

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Rail fans from across the country are excited that an iconic Rio Grande Southern locomotive will soon be in operation again.

“It’s an important piece of railroad history, and to actually be able to operate it is really cool,” said Donald Tallman, executive director of the Colorado Railroad Museum. “It’s truly living history.”

Tallman is referring to the Rio Grande Southern Locomotive No. 20, which arrived home June 4 to the museum in Golden after undergoing restoration in Strasburg, Pennsylvania, for the past 12 years.

“It’s been a long time,” said Jeff Taylor, the museum’s curator of rolling stock and equipment. “There’s been a lot of hype about it coming home.”

Having Locomotive No. 20 is exciting enough on its own, Tallman said, but even more so because it arrived just in time for the Colorado Railroad Museum’s 60th anniversary celebration that runs July 12-14.

In the past six decades, the museum has “grown and flourished,” Tallman

Rio Grande Southern Locomotive No. 20 pulls into its home at the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden after undergoing restoration for 12 years at the Strasburg Rail Road in Pennsylvania to get it operational again. It returned to Golden on June 4 and the museum expects it to be fully operational sometime in 2020.

COURTESY OF COLORADO RAILROAD MUSEUM said. It attracts about 100,000 visitors annually and has more than 100 railcars in the collection — including now the unique Locomotive No. 20.

A narrow-gauge engine built in 1899 for the Florence & Cripple Creek Railroad, it was originally used by the mining industry and built to climb and navigate the winding and steep Phantom Canyon to and from Cripple Creek.

There were only five of its kind, Taylor said, and Locomotive No. 20 is the only one left — all the others have been scrapped for parts.

“The railroad was good at recycling,” Taylor said, adding that Locomotive No. 20 has parts that were original to the other four locomotives.

By the late 1930s, Locomotive No. 20 was serving tourists. But in 1949, it became a movie star and played the role of Emma Sweeny, a locomotive in the film “A Ticket to Tomahawk.”

The last time Locomotive No. 20 ran was in November 1951, and it was sold at auction to the Rocky Mountain Railroad Club in 1952.

The Rocky Mountain Railroad Club

transferred ownership of the train to the Colorado Railroad Museum in 2006, and that year, an anonymous donor gave a donation to get it back to operational condition. The stipulation for the donation was that Locomotive No. 20 be rebuilt by the Strasburg Rail Road.

Strasburg Rail Road specializes in the steam engine, Tallman said.

Locomotive No. 20 returned to Golden with about 80 percent of the work done, Taylor said. The Strasburg Rail Road did the major work needed to certify it for federal standards. That means if the Colorado Railroad Museum chooses, it can take Locomotive No. 20 on tours to places outside of the museum once it’s operational, Taylor said.

Taylor and a team of about 15 will complete the rest of the work at the Colorado Railroad Museum. What is left is mostly cosmetic and “fine detail work,” Taylor said.

He expects Locomotive No. 20 to be operational sometime in 2020, but museum visitors are able to view it now as it’s being worked on in the museum’s shop, Taylor said.

Tallman noted that unlike many other railroad museums’ exihibits, which include artifacts from all over the country, the Colorado Railroad Museum is especially “unique because everything is focused on Colorado.

“The entire collection either ran within or through Colorado,” Tallman said. “That’s really special.”

The Bible Speaks – Clouds If you love clouds you will enjoy the Bible’s use of the word. God covers the sky with clouds (Ps 147:8) & commands them to rain (Job 36:27,28).

God “…makes the clouds His chariot & rides on the wings of the wind” (PS 104:3). Jesus’ deity was declared from a cloud: “…a voice from the cloud said, ‘This is my Son, whom I love’ ” (Matt 17:5). After Jesus’ resurrection He ascended back to heaven in a cloud (Acts 1:9) & He will return to earth someday “… coming on the clouds of heaven” (Matt 26:64). One of the great promises for a Christian is that one day we “…will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air” (1 Thess 4:17).

So think of God whenever you see clouds & be amazed at how He uses them. hfsmail@basicisp.net

Legislation pending in Congress would try to ease the construction worker shortage by establishing a visa system to bring in more foreign laborers.

Employers would have to prove they couldn’t find U.S. workers, and would have to pay fair wages based on local rates.

“Filling our workforce needs is a key component to boost-

The Pinery and Hidden Village communities. Zoning is a promise that is made to property owners – a now-broken promise – and the open space that many of us came here to enjoy is in jeopardy.

The commissioners’ approval came despite: · Douglas County Zoning Resolution criteria (1520.01, 1520.02). · Planning Department staff reporting that the rezoning does not meet all criteria and that the majority of public comments objected. · Planning Commission, The Pinery HOA and Hidden Village HOA recommendations of non-approval. · Concerns raised by Colorado Parks & Wildlife

and Douglas County Historic Preservation Board. · The County Comprehensive Plan Policy 2-15D.3 encouraging open space to maintain the character of long-established residential communities from new development.

We wrote to the commissioners expressing disappointment that they did not table the vote in order to better understand and resolve the approval criteria discrepancies. Their rash decision now affects the house that we built, raised our children in and have proudly called home for 35 years. We have yet to receive any commissioner replies.

ing our workforce and our economy,” said U.S. Rep. Lloyd Smucker, a Republican from Pennsylvania, a sponsor.

For a while at least, homeowners and home builders need to resign themselves to the fact that it will likely be harder to get work done, at least for a while.

Home Depot, for instance, said this year it was eliminating the service it had been offering that hired third-party contractors to install roofing, siding, insulation and gutters.

Projects are also likely to get

more expensive, as nearly 60% of respondents in the NKBA survey said the shortage was affecting labor costs.

Osborne’s husband previously worked in the construction industry, but even so, she said, they suffered sticker shock when it came to their renovations.

“It’s that market right now,” she said. “You want something done and they throw out a big number, and I guess it’s a matter of, `How badly do you want it done and how soon?’”`

Vista, Creek athletes dominate diamond Ireland’s playing skills bring honors; Mitchell named pitcher of year

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Mountain Vista’s Sam Ireland did his usual thing this season, while Nathan Mitchell of Cherry Creek did something that had not happened in 47 years.

Ireland has been named the 2019 Colorado Community Media South Metro Player of the Year and Mitchell was tabbed as the Pitcher of the Year.

Last season, Ireland was selected as both the CCM South Metro Player and Pitcher of the Year, and the University of Minnesota recruit could have been named the same this season with impressive numbers, but Mitchell pitched better than ever for the Bruins.

Ireland was dominant on the mound with a 9-0 record, a 0.91 earned run average with 60 strikeouts, 22 walks and no homers allowed in 54 innings pitched.

He hit .425 with 36 runs batted in and had 13 doubles, one triple and five homers.

“Sam is a dual threat and is probably the best two-way player in the state,” said Vista coach Ron Quintana.

Asked whether Ireland should be

Sam Ireland of Mountain Vista is CCM’s South Metro Baseball Player of the Year. considered a pitching or playing prospect, Quintana played the answer forward.

“That’s Minnesota’s decision now,” offered Quintana.

Mitchell was Creek’s designated hitter when he wasn’t providing the Bruins with some much-needed pitching stability.

He hit .346 but was steady on the mound and gave the Bruins strength on the mound, which helped Creek advance to the 5A state championship game.

Mitchell was 11-0 with a 2.58 ERA and had 59 strikeouts in 70.2 innings pitched. He walked just 13 of the 292 batters face and five of those walks came in the first game of the season.

“He makes you beat him,” said Creek coach Marc Johnson, who

completed his 47th season of coaching baseball. “He doesn’t walk a lot of batters and that helps a lot. Mitchell is the reason we won as many games as we did. He won 11 games as a pitcher for us. I’ve never had a pitcher go 11-0.”

For her, great performances are par for the course Katie Berrian consistent during season, named girls golfer of year

Katie Berrian didn’t get herself in too much trouble on the golf course this season to test her mental toughness.

In fact Berrian, the Regis Jesuit junior who lives in Castle Pines, had an exceptional season and has been selected as the 2019 Colorado Community Media Girls Golfer of the Year.

“I think I had a great season,” said Berrian who is also a competitive dancer and spends 15 hours a week fine tuning her dancing skills. “I worked real hard on my mental game. I matured and that helped.

“It went really well mentally and physically this season. To succeed with the mental game is tough. It is so easy to get caught up in the bad things.”

Berrian won six of the nine high school tournaments she played this season, finished second once, tied for third and tied for fifth once. Her combined scores for the nine events was 1-over-par. She averaged just over 72 a round.

She won the Class 5A West regional tournament with a 4-under par 67 at Tiara Rado golf course in Grand Junction.

She birdied four of the final five holes she played. Loveland’s Lauren Lehigh, who won her second straight 5A state championship on May 20, was second at the regional with a 68.

Berrian had a 1-over-par 73 on the first day of the Class 5A state tournament held on a wintry day at Harmony golf course in Tinmath. The second round of the tournament was called off after snow covered the course. Lehigh, a senior, was awarded the individual title following her first-round 70.

This summer when she is not dancing, Berrian is scheduled to play in four national junior golf tournaments.

PROCESSED FROM PAGE 11

What should you eat?

Even without the latest studies, advice to limit processed foods probably makes sense to most people.

Minimally processed foods tend to be richer in nutrients and more difficult to overeat, since they’re not as widely available and convenient.

Still, following that advice can be hard, especially if for people with limited time and money to spend on food.

“What frustrates me is when the message is, `Change the way you eat,’ without thinking about why people eat the way they eat,” said Sarah Bowen, a professor who studies food and inequality at North Carolina State University.

Another challenge is the broad spectrum of processed foods, and distinguishing which ones might be better or worse as companies continually re-engineer products to make them seem more wholesome. So while the newest studies may give us more reasons to avoid industrialized foods, they also underscore the difficulty of coming up with solutions.

Grants support reality experiences, bat monitoring A Colorado Parks and Wildlife pilot program that uses mobile technology to connect visitors to parks, and a research project related to monitoring bat populations in state parks were awarded grants from Great Outdoors Colorado.

GOCO awarded $17,982 to the Augmented Reality Experience pilot program, which will invest in Agents of Discovery, a free mobile-based game already used in more than 50 U.S. Forest Service areas and numerous parks internationally, according to a news release.

The grant is part of the Director’s Innovation Fund, a partnership between Great Outdoors Colorado and Colorado Parks and Wildlife to create a funding source for one-time, innovative projects that would not otherwise receive funding from either organization.

Almost every Colorado state park has interpretive signage or offers educational programming to help connect visitors to the natural resources and histories of the places. While fixed interpretive signage continues to be an important storytelling resource in parks, relevance can be limited by season or changing messages over time, the release says.

By creating and implementing this AR program, state parks will be able to provide more timely information about what is happening in the parks and create more relevant experiences for visitors, and the program provides an opportunity to reach broader and more diverse audiences, according to the release.

In addition, the project provides an opportunity to create experiences that encourage responsible outdoor behaviors and habits, inspiring stewardship of sites visited. The 10 parks selected for the program are Barr Lake State Park, Chatfield State Park, Eleven Mile

State Park, Cherry Creek State Park, Staunton State Park, St. Vrain State Park, Trinidad Lake State Park, Cheyenne Mountain State Park, Ridgway State Park and Steamboat Lake State Park.

The Bat Acoustic Monitoring program received $7,234. Bats are important to Colorado’s ecosystems, helping control insect populations, according to the release. However, very little data exists on their presence and habitat use in state parks. With the grant, mobile and stationary data collection units will be created to monitor the elusive creatures’ behavior, roosting, and hibernation patterns.

Park visitors will be invited to participate in the data collection process. With the help of a bat-naturalist volunteer, visitors will be provided with ultrasonic microphones that pair with a smartphone app, along with instructions needed to observe and document bats in a mobile fashion. Stationary units use a professional-grade ultrasonic recorder to detect bat acoustic activity.

The grant is part of the Resource Stewardship Program, which is responsible for inventory, planning, and management advice for all natural and cultural resources in Colorado’s state parks. The BAM project represents a partnership with wildlife biologists, education sections, and multiple wildlife areas and state parks, including Chatfield State Park, Cheyenne Mountain State Park, Lake Pueblo State Park, Ridgway State Park, Staunton State Park and Steamboat Lake State Park.

Great Outdoors Colorado invests a portion of Colorado Lottery proceeds to help preserve and enhance the state’s parks, trails, wildlife, rivers, and open spaces. GOCO’s independent board awards competitive grants to local governments and land trusts, and makes investments through Colorado Parks and Wildlife.

HIRE A VETERAN To Advertise call Ann-Marie 303.566.4070

ameyn@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Hiring a Veteran is Hiring Smart Employers often say it’s hard to find good help these days as they fill out and post the most recent job openings for their business. With plans to grow your business, you may be having a tough time filling positions without knowing that the solution is simple.

The answer could be to fill open positions with military veterans. Some reasons to consider hiring a Veteran include:

1

Veterans are goal-oriented: It’s all part of their training. They selflessly served their country with the goal of accomplishing tasks, and completing set goals. In the workplace, that mentality doesn’t change. They set their sights on accomplishing goals and finishing the tasks of the day with quality and care.

2

Responsible: Veterans take responsibility seriously, which means they will take the responsibilities of their jobs seriously. In the military, a soldier is taught that mistakes have grave consequences, that bad decisions can mean failing to accomplish a mission. That training doesn’t go away, that training transfers into the workplace.

3

Independent and trustworthy: If you’re looking for an employee who knows how to take on the duties of the job with minimal or no supervisions,

a military veteran is a good choice. A Veteran understands direction, takes it seriously and can be trusted to work independently and diligently.

4

Veterans understand health and safety: If your industry follows strict safety and health standards, hiring a Veteran has its benefits. From the time a soldier joins the military until the time they leave, they keep the health and safety of fellow soldiers in mind is a requirement. They follow set guidelines and rules. They can successfully go through training and implement and set the example for other employees to follow.

Hiring Veterans is becoming more popular among U.S. businesses, with the unemployment rate dropping to 2.7 in 2019, down from 3.4 percent in 2018. (Shutterstock photo)

5

Saves you money: There are benefits to hiring a Veteran. The U.S. Government provides various incentives for hiring Veterans, including the Special Employer Incentive program, which allows some companies to recoup some of the salaries paid to Veterans.

6

Work Ethic: It’s hard to match the work ethic of a soldier. Once out of the military, that strong work ethic transfers into the workforce. Veterans don’t simply complete a task and relax, they work as a team and will take on other tasks knowing the job isn’t done until the entire team is done.

City and County

You are hereby notified that a petition has been filed which alleges that the above-named children are dependent or neglected as per the facts set forth in the Dependency and Neglect Petition, a copy of which is being served upon you. The following documents are also being served upon you: Petition for Temporary Custody; Dependency and Neglect Handbook; Application for Court Appointed Counsel; ICWA Affidavit; Advisement in Dependency and Neglect; and the Relative Affidavit.

A Return of Service on Respondent Mother and Pre-Trial hearing has been set for July 1, 2019 at 11:00 a.m., in Division 7, Douglas County District Court, 4000 Justice Way, Castle Rock, Colorado, 80109.

Your presence before this court is required to defend against the claims in this petition.

IF YOU FAIL TO APPEAR, THE COURT WILL PROCEED IN YOUR ABSENCE, WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE, TO CONDUCT AN ADJUDICATORY HEARING AND MAY ENTER A JUDGMENT BY DEFAULT THEREBY ADJUDICATING YOUR CHILDREN AS DEPENDENT OR NEGLECTED CHILDREN. You have the right to request a trial by jury at the adjudicatory stage of this petition. You also have the right to legal representation at every stage of the proceedings by counsel of your own choosing, or if you are without sufficient financial means, appointment of counsel by the Court. Termination of your parent-child legal relationship to free your children for adoption is a possible remedy in this proceeding. If that remedy is pursued, you are entitled to a hearing before a Judge. You also have the right, if you are indigent, to have the Court appoint, at no expense to you, one expert witness of your own choosing at any hearing on the termination of your parent-child relationship. If you are a minor, you have the right to the appointment of a Guardian ad litem to represent your best interests.

You have the right to have this matter heard by a district court judge rather than by the magistrate. You may waive that right, and in doing so, you will be bound by the findings and recommendations of the magistrate, subject to review as provided by sec. 19-1-108(5.5), C.R.S., and subsequently, to the right of appeal as provided

by Colorado Appellate Rule 3.4.

This summons is being initiated by the Douglas County Department of Human Services through its counsel.

Apollopalooza celebrates 50th anniversary of moon landing One small step for man, one giant leap for Wings Over the Rockies

BY CLARKE READER SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

For those who weren’t alive on the night of July 20 a half-century ago, it’s difficult to imagine what it must’ve been like to see men land on the moon for the first time. For the millions watching, it was an event that will never be forgotten.

Metro resident Stephen Kelly certainly didn’t. And when a little over a year-and-a-half ago he realized the landing’s 50th anniversary was nearing, he thought it was an occasion worth celebrating.

“I went to the management at the Wings Over the Rockies Museum, where I had volunteered for a long time, and mentioned to them this was coming,” Kelly said. “I thought it would be great if the museum could commemorate the event. Originally, I was thinking of a one-day event to celebrate. It’s really expanded since then.”

Apollopalooza will be held at the air and space museum, 7711 E. Public Notice Academy Blvd. in Denver, from July 13 through 20. The event will feature Gene Kranz was an aerospace engineer with NASA and helped direct the first lunar landing in 1969. Wings Over the Rockies Air and NOTICE OF PURCHASE OF REAL ESTATE TAX on LIENthe SALE AND OFCOURTESY APPLICATION everything from film screenings and Space Museum will be hosting a 50th anniversary event next month in honor of the first Americans toAT land moon.
