‘Day of Music’ is treat for dialysis patients Classical players appear at 29 DaVita dialysis centers across area

BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It’s like a part-time job, sitting there for four hours at a time, three days a week, for a routine round of dialysis. The treatment process is difficult and tiring. Often, patients choose to sleep through it.

Jim Lacher normally sleeps through his dialysis treatment at DaVita Kidney Care in Parker, but on Sept. 5 the chatty North Dakota native wasn’t going to miss DaVita’s three guests that morning.

Paul, Clare and Hannah Trainor, of Parker, visited DaVita on a Wednesday morning and played a half-hour mini-concert in the treatment room — 17-year-old Paul, on cello and violin, 15-year-old Clare on harp and 11-yearold Hannah on violin. Paul opened with “Prelude and Fugue No. 1 in C Major” by Johan Sebastian Bach. The concert ended with the trio playing “Ave Maria” by Franz Schubert.

The young musicians approached Lacher after the performance, and talked about the music — the songs he recognized but couldn’t place the name of. Hearing the Trainors play reminded Lacher of the songs his son would play. Lacher’s youngest son writes classical music, and for the 30 minutes the Trainors played, Lacher felt a connection to him.

“I got to listen to that and think of him,” Lacher said.

Marty Brauer, of Aurora, played the trumpet since fourth grade. He said the playing reminded him of his brother, who plays the cello.

“It’s been a while since I

Marty Brauer applauds the Trainor siblings after their final song at the DaVita Kidney Care dialysis center. The trio played a 30-minute set to break up the monotony of going through dialysis treatment.

Paul Trainor, 17, plays the cello at the DaVita Kidney Care dialysis center in Parker Sept. 5 for a dozen dialysis patients. The “DaVita Day of Music” consisted of 29 mini-concerts across the metro area for dialysis patients.

PHOTOS BY NICK PUCKETT heard strings,” Brauer said. “I really enjoyed it.”

Lacher, Brauer and the other 52 in-center patients of the DaVita in Parker spend at least 12 hours a week getting dialysis treatment, a medical procedure to remove toxins from the blood of a patient

with failed kidneys.

The siblings’ morning concert was part of the “DaVita Day of Music.” In all, 29 of these concerts at DaVita centers were held across the metro area to brighten the days of hundreds of dialysis patients.

“Talking to them … you can tell it brings back memories for them,” Clare Trainor said.

“It’s nice for us because we get to perform and have that experience playing in front of people.”

For the patients, the peaceful, classical music offered a relief from the general stillness in the center and the occasional beeping from the dialysis machines. Paul Trainor said he enjoyed bringing classical music to them.

“They’re going through a lot. You’ve heard the cliché ‘music’s a universal language.’ It’s a cliché for a reason. It’s because it is.

It’s something everyone can enjoy,” Paul said. “Especially these people. They’re going through stuff. They’re suffering. It’s nice to let them forget what they’re going through for a moment, because music’s transcendent. You make a suffering person smile, and it’s a pretty good feeling.”

Hannah Trainor, 11, plays a violin solo at the DaVita Kidney Care dialysis center for a dozen dialysis patients.

District explores later school start times DCSD staff will make recommendation to the board early next year

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Weight gain, alcohol and tobacco use, depression, poor academic performance. These are some of the possible consequences of lack of sleep in young people, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports. One of the reasons adolescents do not get enough sleep is early school start times, the CDC says.

A Douglas County parent emphasized that finding at a Sept. 4 Douglas County School Board meeting, when district staff and board members discussed the topic of changing middle and high school start times, a move already made by some area districts.

During public comment, Darien Wilson brought to the board’s attention various studies conducted by the CDC and published in scientific journals.

“I am here, as the parent of two teenagers, to beg you to institute later start times for middle and high school students as soon as possible,” Wilson said.

“If there was an educational intervention we could offer that would increase attendance rates, increase students’ GPAs, increase state assessment scores, increase college admissions test scores,

‘Even though we know something is going to be good for kids, this is going to be a massive impact to our system.’

Public health departments and organizations are now recommending later start times due to the detrimental effects of too little sleep in adolescents.

The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends that teens get eight to 10 hours of sleep per day for “optimal health.”

Lack of sleep in young people can result in attention, behavior and learning problems, as well as an increased risk of accidents or injuries, diabetes and depression, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine says. Insufficient sleep in teens is also associated with increased risk of self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and suicide attempts, according to the academy.

Adequate sleep results in improved attention, behavior, learning, memory, emotional regulation, quality of life and mental and physical health, the academy reports.

Several school districts across Colorado have made the transition to later start times, including Littleton Public Schools and the Cherry Creek School District. Jefferson County Public Schools is currently weighing the decision.

Members of the Douglas County School Board say they will base their decision on conclusive research.

“We want to be driven not by what our neighboring districts are doing but by what is best for kids,” school board President David Ray said. “The more research that is done, the more comfortable the board will be.”

When Haley Smith is finally done competing for the year, she’s going to eat some Flamin’ Hot Cheetos.

It’s a fitting reward for months of intense weight training, scrupulously toning each muscle in form: Gymnastics classes twice a week to strengthen her core and sides; long, uphill runs for leg strength; dance classes in between everything else.

And with all that, she still had to find time to sync up with her competition partner, Diva, the 15-year-old Oldenburg horse.

Smith is a competitive vaulter, the equestrian event that is essentially a combination of dance and gymnastics components on horseback. Competitors, sometimes three at a time, commit a series of choreographed moves on the moving horse for a score determined by judges. The circus-like performance requires an incredible amount of strength and attention to detail.

Smith, an 18-year-old graduate of Legend High School, competes at an elite level in the sport. She will compete in front of thousands, along with her pairs partner Daniel Janes, at the International Equestrian Federation (FEI) World Equestrian Games, beginning Sept. 11.

“She got here from hard work,” said Smith’s coach, Carolyn Bland. “She goes and gets the job done no matter what, even if it’s a small mistake she

finds a way to continue on her program.”

In 2016 she competed in her first world senior competition in Le Mans, France. A junior at Legend, Smith traveled to California on the weekends to train with Pacific Coast Vaulters, one of the top vaulting clubs in the nation.

Sharing time between school and competition became difficult. With the help of her teachers at Legend, she was able to miss significant school time while keeping her grades up.

In the 2016 Le Mans senior-division games, her first international competition, she finished 11th.

Smith eventually made the full move out west in the middle of her senior year at Legend and completed online classes to get her diploma.

“I’d say the biggest struggle with that was leaving my friends behind,” Smith said. “My high school friends and football games and homecoming — all that stuff. But I never regretted moving.”

But even then, no amount of hard work guarantees success. Smith missed the qualifying cut for the 2017 junior world competition in Austria.

After her disappointing run in 2017, Smith, as the saying goes, got right back on the horse — a new horse, Diva.

“I knew that I was going to have to step up my game because this year a lot of vaulters are eager to go to the equestrian games, so I knew I had to build my strength training,” Smith said. “Just my overall I knew I had to be a lot better.”

Now, Smith finds herself at the pinnacle of the sport. The FEI World Championships is the highest level of international competition for the sport.

Day for dogs goes SWIMMINGLY

BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

he first impression of Parker’s annual “Barker Days” event is pandemonium. Dogs of every size and shape, hundreds of them, indulged in a sensory overload of things to fetch and chase in the water of the H2O’Brien water park in downtown Parker Sept. 8, and the result was nothing short of anarchy with the overwhelming scent of wet dog.

The 2018 Barker Days allowed dogs the chance to swim around at H2O’Brien Pool before the town drains the pool at the end of summer. The retrievers overtook the deep pool and fetched tennis balls and Frisbees while the huskies and St. Bernards splashed around in the kiddie pool.

Many of the smaller dogs, some donning custom life jackets, stayed at the water’s edge, barely dipping a paw before retreating to dry land.

To take a break from the swimming and splashing, the O’Brien baseball field opened to the dogs to play and dry off. An agility course and a dozen booths of different kinds of treats left no shortage of interest for the dog’s day of summer.

“It’s chaos,” said Shane Druckenmiller. This was the first time he and his dog Moose, a white Labrador retriever, turned out to Barker Days.

“But it’s awesome.”

Ruby shakes off after taking a dip in the H2O’Brien pool Sept. 8 during the 2018 Barker Days.

Walk for suicide prevention at Coors Field

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Highlands Ranch residents Sheri Cole and Lori Harper both lost a child to suicide. For the past year, they have been organizing the upcoming Metro Denver Out of the Darkness Community Walk, an annual fundraising event to bring hope and healing to others who have been affected by suicide.

“It’s just nice to know you are not alone, because you feel so alone when it happens,” said Harper, who lost her daughter to suicide four years ago.

More than 3,500 people are expected at this year’s walk at Coors Field in Denver on Sept. 22. Registration begins at 8:30 a.m. and the opening ceremony is at 10 a.m. To avoid long lines, participants can register online at afsp. donordrive.com until noon Sept. 21.

Hosted by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, the fundraiser features a three-mile walk, mental health resources, silent auction, butterfly-release ceremony and

Leaders in the sport are pushing to get vaulting into the Olympics; however, for now, vaulting will have to remain on the fringes of obscurity.

Smith is one of those leaders — albeit, a young one. Her dedication to the sport is transmitted to everyone she encounters, whether in competition or in training. She helps train younger riders and give back to the sport she gave everything too.

“Every sport needs to have those super motivated, passionate youth that are willing to do all that extra

workshops. Special touches such as a poster covered with notes of hope and a memory tree with photos of the loved ones lost create a sense of comfort and connectedness.

To date, $114,774 of a $275,000 goal has been raised. Donations will be accepted until Dec. 31.

Funds go toward education, advocacy and research. ASFP partners with and provides resources for several organizations and programs, such as Mental Health First Aid, a training program that teaches the skills to respond to signs of mental illness and substance use, according to its website.

“For any cause, more attention, dollars, resources, education and programs that we can bring to it will make an impact,” said Cole, who lost her son to suicide in 2009.

The walk grows each year, bringing more people together to connect and find comfort.

If you or someone you know is struggling, Colorado Crisis Service is available at 1-844-493-TALK.

stuff beyond competing or themselves to help their sport grow,” said Emma Seely, of Pacific Coast Vaulting. “She’s really embraced the whole thing.”

For Smith, the competition will be the toughest of her career. As the event draws closer, her nerves grew.

The World Equestrian Games only comes around once every four years.

When she’s finished she can relax with a bag of spicy Cheetos. Until then, like the tireless months of training — missing prom, homecoming and everything in between her senior year — Smith is making every second count.

“Every day,” she said, “we’re preparing as much as we possibly can.”

A.I. companion to help dementia patients Mohammad Mahoor of the University of Denver will present ‘Ryan’ in Lone Tree

BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Artificial intelligence is finding its way into senior living homes, and it won’t be long before companion robots are on the market.

Mohammad Mahoor, a faculty member at the University of Denver, will present his robot companion “Ryan” at a Douglas County Senior Council Living and Aging Well seminar in Lone Tree on Sept. 29. Mahoor will demonstrate its uses to help elderly patients with dementia.

The robot is described as a senior companion and can recognize a user’s emotions through artificial intelligence. Ryan is able to react to a user’s mood and create a sense of empathy with an expressive face.

“Patients with dementia mostly are isolated. They have depression, so it can help with depression, first of all,” Mahoor said. “There’s a good need for technology to help dementia patients and elderly people because of the lack or shortage of nurses or caregivers.”

Ryan can start a conversation about anything and keep the user engaged.

The robot is also equipped with a screen on its “torso” to play games.

Ryan, the artificial intelligence robot, was developed

by University of Denver researchers to help senior patients with dementia.

Mohammad Mahoor, a DU faculty member, will present Ryan at the Sept. 29 Living and Aging Well seminar at the Lone Tree Arts Center.

Gretchen Lopez, the vice chair of the Senior Council of Douglas County, met Ryan and said its ability to be personalized to the patient has been an extraordinary benefit.

“The fact that it’s customizable is fabulous because when you’re dealing with seniors, things that are familiar are comforting,” Lopez said.

Area theaters plan range of offerings in new season COURTESY PHOTO

No matter what your taste in theatrical entertainments, performances both new and familiar are at hand, with appealing dinner spots nearby.

Town Hall Arts Center, Lone Tree Arts Center and PACE have announced programming that is familiar to south area readers who enjoy the entertainment they offer — but within a short drive, there are a number of other venues that offer a really stimulating evening or afternoon performance. A sampler here for theater buffs …

• A farewell to 20-year-old Spotlight Theatre Company, which is bowing out with “You Can’t Take It With You” at Lowry’s John Hand Theater. (Director Bernie Cardell is now Artistic Director at Vintage Theatre in Aurora.)

• Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center started the season

Sept. 7 with “Green Day’s American Idiot.” Versatile Nick Sugar directs this contemporary rock opera. “A Christmas Carol” entertains families through the holidays, followed by “Casa Valentina”; the old favorite “Dames at Sea”; “The World Goes Round” (revue of Kander and Ebb music); and finally, the always popular “Sister

Act.” Note also the concert series (book tickets — these sell out early): October brings songstress Lannie Garrett in “Swing Sets” and “The Patsy Decline Show.” Buckstein, 17th Avenue Allstars, The Nacho Men, Hazel Miller and her band, Colorado Children’s Chorale and the Deranged Divas-Pride Concert follow.

• Lone Tree Arts Center has

concert programs throughout the year and three theatrical offerings: “Low Down Dirty Blues,” (Oct. 18-28), directed

by Randal Mylar; “Home for the Holidays,” (Dec. 19-23) and the musical, “Beehive” (April 3-14).

• Parker’s PACE Center also has a solid menu of concerts and comedy — and theatrical programs start with “A Cho-

Questions like this are fun but fruitless.

Let’s have some fruitless. (Disregard that some of your options are deceased.)

Would you rather be one of the Beatles or one of the Rolling Stones?

Thomas Edison or Nikola Tesla? Bruce Jenner or Caitlyn Jenner?

Would you rather be Sarah Huckabee Sanders or Colonel Sanders?

Would you rather be allergic to country music or allergic to rap?

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Step up for schools Kindergartners in both Douglas County and Aurora are cuter than two buttons on a shoe.

Middle-schoolers, despite the occasional crack that they are living proof of aliens among us, exhibit compassion, creativity, dedication and intellect, in both Aurora and Douglas County schools. Every day.

In both districts, high-schoolers strive for knowledge, skills and habits that will launch them into society. They need all the help they can get balancing the pressures of home, peers and society.

In both communities, most kids come from homes that are wellsprings of support.

And students are distributed across every spectrum of physical, mental and emotional ability.

There are differences. In Aurora, I often taught children whose parents served on the Air Force Base. Most were the children of soldiers who never went to college. In Douglas County, I often taught children whose parents are much better off.

Teaching in Aurora, I appreciated a sign posted by the office. It thanked the people of Aurora for passing a mill levy override and bond to fund their schools. It listed what they afforded for their children. Buses. Buildings.

Teachers. Security upgrades. Counselors.

Books. Equipment.

Every time I saw that sign I thought of my kids’ schools in Castle Rock. Here in Douglas County, we are woefully behind surrounding districts in funding our schools. Our cute kindergartners, budding middle-schoolers and striving high-schoolers need community support.

It is our turn to step up.

address a couple of those.

The first, “Forbes reports that the median annual household income in Douglas County is $99,198.” She then compares this to the statement, “$53,080 is a good salary…” from the previous letter writer. Obviously, her intent is to show how much a teacher is underpaid compared to their neighbors in DougCo. But is it true?

Being a former public and private high school math teacher, I may look at numbers differently than many people might. Let’s analyze the two numbers presented: $53,080 is an “average” salary. The $99,198 is a “median.”

A median is defined as: exactly 50 percent of households make more than that and exactly 50 percent of households make less than that.

It is a true middle ground. Household income is defined as all the income coming in to that house. In most cases today, that will be a dualincome household.

Based on those numbers, two “average” teachers in DougCo who are married to each other have an annual household income of $106,160. In other words, the average teacher in DougCo makes more income than over 50 percent of the people who live in Douglas County.

Think about that. Life gets more interesting when you start to analyze numbers in their true light and get behind the details into what is being said. Sometimes, the point being made is exactly wrong.

Dr. John Reeb Highlands Ranch No need for tax hike The DougCo School Board will ask taxpayers for both a $40 million mill levy override (MLO) and a $250 million bond issue, which means much higher taxes for DougCo residents.

About $17 million of the $40 million MLO would be spent on higher teacher pay. But since teachers are part-time workers should we be paying them more than $53,080 (average SEE LETTERS, P13

My guess is WINNING that you agree with me. I mean, WORDS give us the easy button, right?

However, I have met people who actually do like to be placed in the position of making really difficult decisions. And I say Michael Norton to them, “God bless you.”

The other day I was talking with a client who has become a close friend. Our discussion was centered on a big decision that he needed to make.

What had happened to him is what happens all too often to many of us, we become decidedly undecided, and then what happens is that we become decisively undecisive.

It is decision-making atrophy. We are so caught up in making the “right” decision based on the input and feedback from others, and possibly even to be politically correct, that we have stopped thinking for ourselves.

It is so much easier to let social media be the judge, or to allow Google to make an informed decision for us. Why should we be taxed with making such hard decisions when artificial intelligence can do it? Now, ask yourself, “Is he talking about artificial intelligence like the internet and technology?”

Well, I could be. But I am not.

I am talking about the artificial and made up intelligence of our sources of information and the input we receive from others, and especially from others who change their mind and basis of information on the very last thing that they were told or that they read.

And that it is exactly why we need to start exercising our own decision-making muscles again.

salary according to Colorado Department of Education)?

According to the 2018-19 Douglas County School District calendar, teachers will be teaching students 169 days plus 12 days of professional training (conferences, etc. without students) for a total of 181 working days.

Thus, teachers actually work (assuming an eight-hour day and a two week vacation) only 72.4 percent of the hours of other workers — and they have full medical and generous retirement unlike most part-time employees. They take second jobs because they only work part-time in their teaching jobs. If teachers worked full time they would be making an average $73,314 a year.

Money can be saved without hiking taxes. Public charter schools save the district and taxpayer huge construction costs because they must finance or lease their own school buildings.

But though the district’s own survey found citizens want more STEM (science, tech, engineering and math) schools, the board has denied two out of two charter applications, one of which was a STEM. And why is only $3 million to $9 million of the $250 million bond going to the charters for repairs and security when they represent 20 percent of DougCo schools?

Joy Overbeck Parker Stop anti-Christian bigotry The Colorado Civil Rights Division has again gone after Masterpiece Cakeshop owner Jack Phillips, a Christian. This time, they’re giving credence to a complaint by a person who has switched from male to female.

That person is an attorney listed on the Colorado Supreme Courts Office of Regulation as Autumn Scardina, who asked Jack to create a special cake to commemorate the conversion from man to woman. Because of his deeply held religious beliefs, Jack refused just as he refused to bake a

special cake for a gay couple back in 2012. When the CCRD went after him that time, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that CCRD had violated the U.S. Constitution’s Free Exercise clause by persecuting Jack for not baking a special cake.

In both these instances, Jack offered these folks any pre-made cake in his shop, but they all refused.

Now in desperation, the Alliance Defense Fund has filed suit on Jack’s behalf to stop the ongoing religious persecution of Jack and his family that help run the business.

For more info on these complex legal issues, you can call ADF at 800-835-5233.

These things, of course, do not occur in a vacuum. The Wall Street Journal has reported on this, so the whole world knows of Colorado’s continued persecution of this humble baker who simply wants to use his God-given talents to make delicious and beautiful cakes.

Lets pray the CCRD comes to its senses so our state won’t continue to be the center of such anti-Christian bigotry.

Great American Beer Festival is set to BREW UP good times

More than 800 breweries from across nation will take part in Denver event

n 1993, after geologists Charlie and Janine Sturdavant lost their jobs, they purchased a Victorianstyle home in Golden’s historic district. They filled a machine shop behind the house with old dairy tanks. They transformed the sunroom into a tasting room. The back yard became an intimate beer garden, with picnic tables and bulb lights draped overhead.

More than 30 years later, Golden City Brewery is the city’s second largest brewery.

“Nothing was planned out — it happened organically,” said Derek Sturdavant, the son of the original owners. After he graduated from college, he took on the role of head brewer, or as his bio says, “mad scientist.”

Golden City Brewery, 920 12th St., is one of more than 800 breweries from across the U.S. that will be participating in this year’s Great American Beer Festival in downtown Denver.

Sturdavant will be pouring favorites like the Cherry Bomber, which takes a half-pound of cherries per pint, and the Clear Creek Gold Pale Ale, a German-style beer.

The three-day beer extravaganza is from Sept. 20-22 at the Colorado Convention Center, 700 14th St. in

A culinary exploration of Denver’s history

N

ot everyone can say they achieved a dream they had while in high school. But local wine expert and blogger Simone FM Spinner did just that with the publication of her first book — “Denver Food: A Culinary Evolution.”

“Becoming a published book author has been a goal since I was fifteen years old and I finally did it,” she said. “I love food, cooking, and dining out. Working in the wine industry, I have always been lucky to dine out frequently as a part of my work; often in the latest, hottest, most interesting restaurants in the city.”

In her book, Simone explores how German, Japanese, Chinese and Italian immigrants made their way to Colorado as part of COMING the gold rush. Soon ATTRACTIONS they were opening up saloons, which later turned into a booming restaurant industry.

However, all the recent growth in metro area is causing some of the city’s most unique and historic locaClarke Reader tions to shut down.

Which partly inspired Simone to start writing.

“My book is essentially a love letter to the city that I fell in love with, which doesn’t really exist anymore,” she explained. “Yet, it is also a glimpse of the future and of the amazing things that are happening right now in Denver.”

There’s a lot to know about the culinary scene in Denver, and Simone hopes readers come away understanding there’s a lot of collaboration and community between chefs.

She also wants readers to know the Denver culinary community is actively doing their part to stave off waste, food insecurity and hunger, in their restaurants and in their communities.

Most importantly, Simone wants readers to understand how many great tastes and flavors there are to explore right at their fingertips.

“Denver has long been ignored by food writers, influencers, and critics.

People assume that Denver is just about steaks, Mexican food, and novelty dishes. Denver’s culinary scene is a bit of a sleeper,” she said.

“There is so much truly great food in this city and people should get out and explore a little bit. I really appreciate the immense culinary diversity in Denver.”

BEER

IF YOU GO The Great American Beer Festival is coming to downtown Denver.

FROM PAGE 14

The AHA is a division of the Brewers Association, a national nonprofit dedicated to craft brewers.

The largest of its kind in the country, the Great American Beer Festival is an opportunity for beer lovers to rejoice in all things beer, from tastings to food pairings to educational sessions with master brewers. This year, more than 8,000 styles of beer will be served. More than 62,000 attendees are expected over the three days.

“It’s like a big ol’ music fest but everyone is a craft beer fan,” Sturdavant said.

Brewers get creative and showcase new recipes to beer drinkers and to each other.

“I always love the fest because there is so much great beer from all over the country,” said Jeff Tyler, head brewer at Spice Trade Brewery, formerly Yak & Yeti Brewpub, in Olde Town Arvada. “You really get to explore and try some things that you wouldn’t be able to try unless you were hopping on an airplane every weekend and going to different places around the country.”

Tyler, a New York native with a degree in mechanical engineering, has been the head brewer since 2016.

He brews his eclectic beers in a sevenbarrel brewhouse located inside the Yak & Yeti Restaurant, 7803 Ralston Road. The Indian, Nepalese, and Tibetan food restaurant is in a 153-yearold historic home.

Evening sessions: 5:30-10 p.m., Sept. 20, 21 and 22 Afternoon session: noon to 4 p.m., Sept.

22. This session is restricted to American Homebrewers Association (AHA) and Brewers Association members.

Where: Colorado Convention Center,

700 14th St., Denver Cost: $160 for a Paired + GABF ticket, which gets you a private craft beer and food pairing session and access to the festival floor.

Individual session tickets are $85, which gets you a festival program, commemorative tasting cup and unlimited one-ounce samples of more than 4,000 beers.

How: purchase tickets online at www.greatamericanbeerfestival.com.

Kegs of craft beer fill the Colorado Convention Center prior to the Great American Beer Festival. This year’s three-day event is expected to have more than 62,000 people.

PHOTO BY BREWERS ASSOCIATION “A lot of the beer we do has an interesting culinary influence to it,” said Tyler. Some of his styles are a jalapeno-infused beer, chai milk stout

and lemon cello suasion.

He describes his favorite, the Jalapeno Lena, as a crisp, clean, effervescent, slightly bitter German-style

Pilsner. He will be pouring it, along with four other styles, at the festival.

Megan Koloskie, manager of Grist Brewing Company in Highlands Ranch, 9150 Commerce Center Circle, said there’s a strong camaraderie among brewers at the festival. This year, she will be pouring a Berliner Weisse sour-style beer, Mexicanq spiced fruit ale and sake collaboraD tion e “It’s very fun,” said Koloskie, who is h originally from Las Vegas. She discov- l ered her love for craft beer when she moved to Denver. “I’m looking forwardf 2 to meeting some other brewers and other breweries to do some potential D collaborations moving forward, and m g getting our name out there.”

New this year, the beer fest will have v a an additional 100,000 square feet of space — making the entire hall almost six football fields large, said Ann Obenchain, marketing director at the Brewers Association.

“We expanded the Meet the Brewers section,” Obenchain said. “That’s where all the beer lovers can go meet the people behind the beer.”

There will also be a barrel-aged beer garden sponsored by Jameson Irish Whiskey and a Buffalo Wild Wings sports bar with 12 giant TVs playing college and professional football games.

Most brewers will enter their beers in the contest, which has 102 categories of beer. Winners receive a medal and, more importantly, widespread recognition, Derek Sturdavant said.

“You get a lot of beer nerds coming to your brewery,” he said. “And they will drain your tanks.”

our physical strength and endurance we do not send our neighbor to the gym. When we need to go to the doctor’s office we do not send our cousin to have the X-ray taken for us or have our brother go for the blood test. The answer is no. There are certain things that we have to do, that we are required to do, and that we get rewarded for doing.

Decision making is one of those things. Not just the easy ones that we prefer to make, but the difficult decisions that we agonize over as well.

What I have learned when it comes to decision making is that a “less is more” approach is the best approach.

Would you rather watch an Adam Sandler movie or hit yourself over the head with a croquet mallet?

“The Secret Life of Walter Mitty” is a short story written by James Thurber. Mitty is an uneventful man who daydreams about being someone he is not: a magnificent surgeon, a deadly assassin, and a Royal Air

Force pilot, among others (the film versions are somewhat different).

It’s natural to imagine yourself leading the team down the field in the fourth quarter, or hitting the walkoff to put your team in the play-offs.

Those are not unrealistic.

Becoming a millionaire overnight supports the concept of the lottery. I see a one-legged man in a wheelchair scratching a lottery ticket at least once a week, and I always hope I will hear him say, “Hallelujah.”

Seeking wise counsel, having strong advisers, and receiving rock-solid data to support a difficult decision is absolutely encouraged. It is when we seek too much information, when we try and justify the easy way out because we know someone will give us an opinion that will let us off the hook, and when we spend countless hours and days searching the internet just to make sure we didn’t miss that opinion piece from 2005 that will help us make the “right” decision, that is when we become decisively undecisive.

Look, if you are like me and really prefer the easy decisions, but from time to time have to make a really tough call, do yourself a favor and limit the sources of information and people that will influence that decision. You will save time, energy,

stress, and relationships, and in the end, I am sure most times you will make the right decision, and probably the decision that you were going to make even before you did your research and talked to your family and friends.

So how about you? How are your decision-making muscles these days?

Are you relying more on others and becoming increasingly undecided? I would love to hear your strategy for making up your mind at gotonorton@ gmail.com and when we can avoid being decisively undecisive, it really will be a better than good week.

Slugger takes on senior year

PHOTO BY NICK PUCKETT

Softball player Alexa Cordes is a senior at Castle View High School

BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

W

hen Alexa Cordes isn’t playing softball for Castle View, well, she’s playing more softball. Cordes plays club ball when the high school season isn’t underway to sharpen her skills.

The Sabercats’ clean-up hitter hardly has a break in the season when she’s not working on her

Q&A with Cordes What’s your favorite thing about playing softball?

I like how it starts as a team game, but it is also an individual game.

Like, when you’re hitting, it’s an individual for your team, but in the field it’s all a team game. It has the two aspects of those.

Do you have a favorite pre-game song?

I have a playlist that my friend and I made for our senior year.

That’s kind of our pre-game hype and we have our little rituals, and then we’ll hit. Then we have our little thing where we’ll take our earrings off and do a little pre-

swing — and it’s paid off. Next year she plans to play softball at Arizona Christian University in Phoenix. Until then, the senior first-baseman will be focused on leading Castle View for one more season.

This being her senior year, she wants to savor every swing.

“This is kind of it,” Cordes said, “and that’s kind of inspiring me to do the best I can, have fun with it and don’t take it for granted.”

COACH’S TAKE: ‘She’s our clean-up hitter for a reason. She hits the ball a long way and she brings a lot of intangibles to the team.

She’s a real strong voice of leadership and balance in the dugout and she’s one of the great seniors we’re going to miss. She helps drive the ship.’

game hype talk to each other.

Do you have a walk-up song?

I do. It’s called “I’d Love to Change the World,” (by Jetta) and my little brother picked it out like two years ago and I still love it, so I used it again this year.

Dave Rodriguez, Castle View softball coach the game. They still to this day tell us stories about their high school seasons and how fun it was. I think just taking in the moment, this is kind of it and that’s kind of inspiring me to do the best I can, have fun with it and don’t take it for granted.

What are your plans for after high school?

Currently, I’m committed to Arizona Christian University to play softball. It might change because coaches and stuff, but so far that’s the plan.

Do you think it would be harder for a baseball player to hit a softball or a softball player it hit a baseball?

I think it’d be harder for a softball player to hit a baseball. We have a big neon ball, they have a little white ball, and that’s a big difference…

What’s your inspiration?

My parents played a lot of softball and baseball in high school and college. So living up to their hype of

AD follows winning path to Hall of Fame

A

rvada West athletic director Casey Coons is a Hall of Famer.

It is an honor that I envisaged since he was wellschooled. Coons is a fellow graduate of Denver’s Abraham Lincoln high school.

Coons, who graduated from high school years after I did, will be part of the 24th Western State Colorado University Hall of Fame class OVERTIME that will be inducted on Sept.

14 in Gunnison.

He was an offensive lineman for Western State and a 1980 graduate who played on three Rocky Mountain Athletic Jim Benton Conference title teams and twice played in NAIA post-season playoff games.

After coaching at Black Hills State University and Western Oregon, Coons returned to Western State in 1988 as an assistant for head coach Duke Iverson. He was promoted to assistant head coach and defensive coordinator in 1991.

In three seasons starting with the 1991 campaign, the Mountaineers won three conference titles, advanced to the NAIA playoffs once and made two NCAA playoff appearances.

“I think I’m the first assistant coach to go into the Hall of Fame at Western State,” said Coons, who was Arvada West’s head football coach from 2002 to 2011. “We thought we were going to get fired in 1991 unless we turned it around. It wasn’t just me. So much went into it.

It’s a we thing, especially in football.”

Brent Tollar was one person who sent in a nomination letter.

“Coach Coons created a well- bonded defense and team mentality that focused on hard work, grit and an unbreakable ideal that we always stood together as a team,” wrote Tollar.

“The only thing that mattered was the name on the front of the jersey. The very foundation that I believe Mountaineer football stands for comes from someone like Casey Coons.”

BENTON FROM PAGE 20

Match point Granted, it wasn’t the U.S. Open tennis championships.

It was the 13th annual Willow Creek Classic doubles tournament that took place Sept. 5-9 at courts in the Willow Creek neighborhood in Centennial and other nearby South Suburban courts.

Tennis players from the south Denver area apparently like to wrap up the summer tennis season with competitive, tough matches that are fun and without a lot of pressure. Plus there was always food and drinks waiting at the conclusion of matches in the quaint, unsanctioned tournament in which players have to register by mail.

This year there were 225 players entered to play in women’s 3.o, 3.5 and 4.0 doubles and men’s 3.5, 4.0 doubles. There was competition in 6.5, 7.0, 7.5 and 8.0 mixed doubles.

The tourney concluded with a unique, eight-game pro set mixed doubles event.

“The tournament does attract good tennis players who feel welcome and are not intimidated,” said tourna-

ment organizer Rick Bolin. “What sets the tournament apart from other tournaments is that people love how social it is, how friendly it is and we as organizers go out of our way to make sure there is food and drinks available. The fridge is fully stocked.

“We attract great tennis players from all over the south metro area from Highlands Ranch, Ken Caryl, Parker, the Pinery, and last year we had four women who came down from Aspen. We allowed as many people to register as we could find courts and then we had to stop.”

Willow Creek resident Jamele Leyden has played in the tournament since it started.

“Even if you are not playing there is someone that I know that is on the court,” she said. “It’s a great tournament to relax. It is well run. Everyone is playing to win but it’s such a relaxed environment and at some point you are going to be playing against people you know. Because it’s non-sanctioned there is no pressure. It’s fun.

“Trust Us!” Without public notices, the government wouldn’t have to say anything else.

Public notices are a community’s window into the government. From zoning regulations to local budgets, governments have used local newspapers to inform citizens of its actions as an essential part of your right to know. You know where to look, when to look and what to look for to be involved as a citizen. Local newspapers provide you with the information you need to get involved.

Notices are meant to be noticed.

Read your public notices and get involved!
