School board recall on hold

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Back story The Town of Parker has been dissatisfied with its RTD services since at least 2014, said John Fussa, director of community development.

The man spearheading a recall of four Douglas County School Board members says he is suspending the effort after directors voted to send middle and high schools back to 100% in-person learning.

Road2Recall committee member Nate Ormond said the group will stop circulating petitions for the time being, although he’s willing to resume the effort if district schools don’t remain in full in-person learning for the entire fourth quarter.

“Just in case the board does an about face in the next two or three weeks,” he said March 3.

The group began circulating petitions in February to oust board President David Ray and directors Susan Meek, Elizabeth Hanson and Christina Ciancio-Schor. Among the recall group’s allegations were frustrations directors had not returned all students to 100% in-person learning.

Elementary schools began full in-person learning on Jan. 5 while middle and high schools started this semester remotely. Secondary schools then launched hybrid learning in early February and are now slated to begin 100% in-person learning on March 22.

Hanson and Ciancio-Schor were not immediately available for comment.

Meek said she wants to focus on students moving forward and urged unity in the community.

Plan to leave RTD has support, but likely pushed to next legislative session

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

While the Town of Parker may have some legislative support needed to start a process of leaving RTD, it’s unlikely a bill needed to initiate the action will be introduced this legislative session.

State Sen. Jim Smallwood, RParker, said he would support the town’s desire to leave the transportation district under the condition there is a plan in place for an improved and more cost-effective transportation replacement.

“If we can do both of those I believe I would be supportive and helpful in the process,” he said.

“It’s not something I would support if it was looking to leave RTD and no other plans for transportation.”

Smallwood said the needed bill could be introduced this session, but it would have to be approved as a delayed bill from the state Legislature’s leadership.

“I suppose theoretically it could.

But practically, probably not,” he

said.

State Rep. Kim Ransom, R-Acres Green, could not be reached for this story.

Mayor Jeff Toborg said while the bill may end up in the next legislative session, it’s an issue he and the council are serious about pursuing.

“As a steward of taxpayer (dollars), we have to address this,” he said.

During a Jan. 25 meeting, the town council came to consensus that it would like to move forward with pulling out of RTD in the same way that Castle Rock did in 2005, which was through legislative action. Town Attorney Jim Maloney drafted a bill similar to the one used by Castle Rock to separate from the district.

If such a bill were approved by the state Legislature, the decision would then come back to town residents to make the final decision. If it were then approved by voters, the district wouldn’t be released from paying for RTD until 2050. That is, unless the transportation district

refinances its debts.

Maloney’s bill also includes a clause requiring RTD to provide “the Town of Parker with a level of service that is reasonably proportional to the sales taxes that are received by the district from the area,” until that debt is retired.

Julien Bouquet, the newly-elected RTD director representing Parker, is hopeful it won’t come to that, he said.

“I think what would be more productive is if myself and other RTD representatives … spoke with Parker and had more conversation going forward,” he said. “Asking `what do you need? What do you want?’ I think there is an opportunity for growth in the near future and far out future.”

Board approves full, in-person learning for secondary students New schedule will take effect after spring break

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A plan to send Douglas County School District middle and high school students back to in-person learning, five days a week has received the stamp of approval from board directors, as well as support from principals and the local public health agency.

Douglas County School Board directors voted unanimously on March 2 to support interim Superintendent Corey Wise’s recommendation that secondary students launch 100% in-person learning on March 22, the start of DCSD’s fourth quarter.

“It’s time to get back,” Wise said.

Under the plan, the district will still require masks in its buildings. Social distancing will take place wherever possible and targeted quarantines will continue, Wise said. Students can expect other changes. Classrooms will be fuller — some will have up to 30 students — and lunchrooms will be more crowded than in hybrid learning.

Elementary students began full, in-person learning on Jan. 5.

Middle and high school students started the second semester with full remote learning until they began a “Hybrid 2.0” model in early February.

Board President David Ray said district leadership and staff have been planning for a full return to in-person learning for nearly a year, starting under former Superintendent Thomas Tucker before Wise took over.

Ray said district staff will con-

tinue working to answer lingering questions about conducting in-person learning during the pandemic.

“We know this is difficult, we know this is hard, we know that this is not a perfect solution,” Ray said.

School board Director Krista Holtzmann said staff have worked tirelessly to boost testing capabilities, implement new quarantine protocols and get staff vaccinated “much quicker than any one of us could have anticipated.”

Director Elizabeth Hanson said the plan would not have garnered her support without knowing all staff that work directly with students have either been inoculated or have appointments.

Tri-County Health Department Executive Director John Douglas gave Wise’s recommendations his support, calling it a “thoughtful” approach.

“I think the plan that you all have outlined to me makes a lot of sense,” he said.

Douglas said masking and good ventilation will be key to lessening transmission of COVID-19 during full, in-person learning and encouraged taking class outdoors when weather permits.

Lunch time will likely be one of the riskiest settings during the school day, he said, as students sit in close quarters and remove masks to eat. He said sign-in sheets at lunchtime would help with targeted quarantines.

Douglas recommended students get tested often, particularly if displaying cold or other symptoms of illness. He described himself as a “big believer” in vaccinating against the virus down to the age vaccines have been tested in children, which he

the group organized a survey asking secondary students about their preference between full inperson and hybrid learning.

Among 1,100 middle school students, 63% preferred full inperson learning.

High school students were more divided, although a majority still approved of in-person learning.

Of 2,800 high school students, 53% preferred in-person learning and 47% preferred hybrid.

A return to in-person learning has been a point of contention among the district community, helping lead to a recall effort aimed at four board directors — Ray, Hanson, Susan Meek and Christina Ciancio-Schor.

Nate Ormond, a member of the Road2Recall committee, said the group would suspend its recall effort if directors voted on March 2 to resume 100% in-person learning.

Nearby districts have recently contemplated or announced a switch to in-person learning as counties approached benchmarks for moving to Level Blue on the state’s COVID-19 dial.

As of March 2, Douglas County met two out of three requirements to move from Level Yellow to Level Blue, according to the state’s website.

Douglas County’s one-week average positive rate and hospitalization rate hovered in the Level Blue range, while the county’s one-week cumulative incidence rate remained at 140.8. Counties must show an incidence rate of 100 or fewer to be Level Blue.

Wise said logistically he believes the district can sustain 100% in-person learning and credited improving COVID-19 trends with moving plans along.

“It’s an adjustment but we’ll be ready,” he said.

said is 16 or 18 depending on the vaccine.

Principals expressed everything from excitement to cautious optimism at the thought of going back full time.

Highlands Ranch High School Principal Chris Page said he is confident students will stay committed to following COVID-19 precautions once back full time.

The task will be more challenging with all students in buildings and quarantines will be inevitable, he said, but schools will implement mitigation strategies as much as possible.

“Kids understand we’ve got to take some extra steps to make sure we’re not going to lose this opportunity,” he said.

Students who spoke during the meeting voiced both support for in-person learning and concern about the plan, particularly because the transition takes place immediately after spring break.

District student Barret Mosley said in-person learning will allow students to get help from teachers who are in the same room, and that attention spans suffer during remote learning time.

“I think (in-person) is better for us and our mental sanity,” he said.

John Niedringhaus, who attends eighth grade at Sierra Middle School, predicted families will travel during spring break, increasing their risk of exposure and potentially leading to a spike in quarantines early in the fourth quarter.

“This seems like a lot of added stress on everyone that could be avoided,” he said. “What is the real harm in waiting one to two weeks after break?”

Mayor talks past year, future plans for Parker in State of Town address Toborg also announced cancellation of Parker Days this summer

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Mayor Jeff Toborg spoke about how the town has dealt with the past year during the COVID-19 pandemic along with his and the town council’s goals for the coming year in his annual address to the community.

“The state of our town is strong, the state of our town is united, and the state of our town is still that place you want to call home,” Toborg said in his speech.

At the beginning of Toborg the event, which was hosted by the Parker Chamber of Commerce for the first time, a video made by the town about the past year was played for viewers. In the past, the annual State of the Town speech has been hosted by the Rotary Club.

Toborg was elected mayor in the November election after first being elected to the town council in 2018.

“I look forward to serving our community,” he said.

Toborg announced several goals for the town, including a focus on economic development, new pedestrian and bicycle opportunities and completion of local road projects.

In a question and answer portion of the event, Toborg announced that the annual Parker Days event will again be canceled this year.

“We’re going to come alongside the chamber to make sure that the 2022 Parker Days is a better event,” he said. “It gets back to what Parker Days was from this community, and it’s that moment for us all to turn out and really celebrate what we love about it.”

The chamber decided to cancel the event due to the uncertainty of potential restrictions from local and state officials, the challenges of monitoring and enforcing social distancing of large events and the amount of advance preparation necessary to hold the event, according to a statement from the chamber of commerce following the announcement.

“Delaying this decision would result in many of these partners being left in a state of uncertainty and

inability to make plans,” according to the statement.

Town Administrator Michelle Kivela also spoke during the state of the town event.

Goals In the coming months, the town council is considering funding a citizen’s survey, Toborg said.

“When we come out of a pandemic, it’s always good to take a barometer, a checkpoint of how the citizens are feeling about what they’re getting,” he said.

The town will also be continuing its use of an educational video service.

As far as future planning goes, the town will update its 2035 master plan, add to the transportation plan and initiate a facilities master plan, Toborg and Kivela said.

“Over the next three, five, seven, 10 years, you’re going to see a lot of growth out to the south and west of Parker,” Toborg said.

Pedestrian plans mentioned include the addition of a multi-use trail walk on Parker Road between Twenty Mile Road and Hess Road and construction on the East/West trail.

Trail safety will also be improved this year.

“We’ve heard you Parker, we’ve heard you at dusk, we’ve heard you in the evenings, some of your concerns and we will address them this year,” he said.

Toborg also spoke about the new Chase Bank, which will soon be going up at the southwest corner of Parker Road and Mainstreet.

“I know we have a lot of banks in Parker, but the beauty of that and the anchoring that will do to our downtown community, I think will be a very, very welcome asset to our community,” he said.

On May 5 of this year, the town will also turn 40, Toborg said.

“We look forward to celebrating that date with you,” he said.

For his review of the past year, Toborg talked about the opening of the town’s H2O’Brien Pool last summer and added that while it couldn’t be at full capacity in 2020, he believes it will be this year.

He also highlighted new traffic operations on Parker Road, added trail connections and virtual programs offered by the town during the pandemic.

The Chamber of Commerce plans to post a full recording of the speeches.

Parker’s new economic development director talks through plans

BY ELLIOTT WENZLER EWENZLER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Bo Martinez is hoping to create a big, bold vision for the Town of Parker’s future.

From ideas for helping small businesses to potential new developments, the town’s new economic development director and deputy town administrator has a multitude of ideas.

Before coming to Parker, Martinez completed more than 25 years of economic development experience with positions at the City of Miami Beach, Florida; the City and County of Martinez Broomfield; the City and County of Denver; and the City of Phoenix, Arizona. Most recently, he was the president of the Adams County Regional Economic Partnership.

Martinez was hired by the Town of Parker effective Feb. 8 at an annual salary of $184,800, with a $2,280 signing bonus, according to his contract.

“They had a really big emphasis on economic development and placemaking, and that was something that really drew me to Parker,” he said. “I eventually wanted to get back to working with a municipality.”

His position’s focus on economic development will include working with community stakeholders to improve the community’s well-being, he said.

“Really just making sure that you’re working on a broad range of activities that can be from business retention and expansion, business attraction, creating and retaining jobs within the community, investments and just building a local tax base and an inclusive economy,” Martinez said.

Martinez set a goal to meet 100 people in his first 100 days on the job.

During his first year, he will prioritize development of a comprehensive economic development strategy for the town’s immediate and longterm goals. He plans to work with public and private sector partners along with local business organizations on the strategy, he said.

“When you’re working in the economic development world, you’re really touching lots of different industries,” he said. “At the end of the day, if we can bring everyone together and create this really bold vision and plan for our community, then we’ll be successful now and going forward.”

Martinez summarized his many areas of focus for the town’s future, including diversifying the local economy, growing present businesses and developing new areas of the town in a March 1 interview with The Parker Chronicle, ‘Why Parker?’

Among first priorities, Martinez said he plans to focus on business retention within the town and support of small businesses.

“One of the big things I always say

when I go to a community is that small business is big business,” he said. “They’re really big job creators, and they’re the ones that really build up not only the community but also the economy.”

He’d also like to see the town work on attracting new businesses, both domestic and international. Site selectors tend to look at the cost of real estate, the tax environment, education and the transportation infrastructure and mobility of the area when choosing locations, he said.

“Economic development doesn’t stand on its own, it really takes a lot of other things to make it a great community,” Martinez said. “When we think about community perspective, it’s about parks and recreation and open spaces … Having great town services is a great community benefit when you think about wanting to not only live here but also work here.”

Another focus for his team will be marketing, branding and communication.

“You need to tell the story of ‘Why Parker?’ What sets it apart from not only a regional perspective but also a national perspective?” he said.

Future development Martinez sees retail as one of the biggest sectors of the town’s economy. He’d also like to see growth of the existing industrial park. Other ideas he has involve embracing broadband and working from home options along with development of health and wellness, financial ser-

vices and aerospace industries.

As far as geographic areas, he believes important areas going forward will be Crown Point, Parker Road, Downtown or Mainstreet, the E-470 area and “some of the newer commercial subdivisions throughout the community going south,” he said.

“I think we’ll continue to see some new developments in different sizes, shapes and forms near (Parker Road, downtown and E-470) but also new, bigger subdivisions where we’re going to see a lot of new residential and some commercial development,” he said. “I think we’re about 72% built out, so we’ve got about 30% more to go.”

Upcoming mobility plans could include added pedestrian and bike capabilities, he said Martinez added that he understands there is a fine balance when it comes to adding more developments to a town and maintaining its current character, emphasizing that infrastructure has to keep up with the growth.

“I know that the Town of Parker really prides itself on being a small town, and I think that’s something that we want to not only sustain but also make sure we embrace as we go forward as we continue to grow and develop as a community,” he said.

“We understand that there are going to be residents and businesses that don’t want to see us grow. And on the other side of it there’s going to be people who say ‘if we’re going to grow, let’s make sure we at least do it responsibly.’”

Many area businesses now in level blue under 5-Star rules

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Colorado’s arrival at the milestone of getting COVID-19 vaccine shots to 70% of people ages 70 and older opened the door for some businesses in Denver metro counties to open up to larger crowds.

Under the state’s COVID-19 dial system — the set of restrictions counties must follow based on local virus spread — several Denver metro counties remain in yellow, the third least-restrictive level.

The 5-Star State Certification Program allows businesses to operate with expanded capacity if they follow stepped-up COVID-19 safety protocols, letting businesses follow restrictions that are one level lower on the dial than they otherwise would be able to without certification.

Counties across the metro area had been granted the ability to let businesses become 5-Star certified, but the state on Feb. 5 said 5-Star businesses in yellow counties could only operate at level-blue restrictions “once 70% of 70-year-olds” in the state are vaccinated with at least one dose, which was expected to happen by the end of February, according to a state public-health department news release.

On March 2, Gov. Jared Polis announced that Colorado has met the goal of vaccinating 70% of all Coloradans aged 70 and above, according to an Arapahoe County news release.

The state’s COVID-19 website on March 3 listed Adams, Arapahoe,

Denver, Douglas, Elbert and Weld as among the counties in yellow where 5-Star businesses can now operate in level blue restrictions.

Some counties in other areas hadn’t yet been listed as able to have businesses running in blue as of that afternoon.

“Counties participating in the 5 Star Certification Program can choose whether they want their certified 5 Star businesses to operate in the blue level,” said a spokesperson from the Colorado State Joint Information Center, which takes questions for the state public-health department. “We have asked eligible counties to confirm if their businesses will operate in the blue level but have not heard back from everyone yet.”

In level blue, restaurants indoors are allowed up to 50% capacity or 175 people (or up to 225 using the state’s social distancing space calculator), whichever is fewer. That’s up from 50% capacity or 50 people (or up to 150 using the calculator), whichever is fewer, in level yellow. Other businesses see capacity expand as well.

See the calculator at covid19.colorado.gov/distancing-calculator.

See a full list of which restrictions apply to which levels on the dial by clicking “level restrictions” about halfway down the page at covid19. colorado.gov/data/covid-19-dialdashboard.

More counties close to Denver — including Jefferson, Park, Clear Creek and Broomfield — recently entered level blue, further loosening rules for restaurants and other businesses.

Uncertainty over 5-star relevance Under the “dial 2.0” changes to Colorado’s COVID-19 restrictions on Feb. 6, the state public-health department drastically eased the limits on incidence rates — rates of new cases — that allow counties to remain in certain levels of the dial. The arrival of the “dial 2.0” system had moved Denver metro counties down to level yellow from level orange.

The level a county qualifies for on the dial generally depends on the county’s rate of new cases, its percentage of COVID-19 tests that come back positive, and whether hospitalizations are increasing, stable or declining.

The dial restrictions apply to capacity at restaurants, other businesses, indoor and outdoor events, and other settings.

The 5-Star program may soon be irrelevant in more metro counties if they’re able to entirely move to level blue — unless worsening virus trends cause a county to move back up to tighter levels. That’s because businesses with 5-Star certification may not operate in the next-lowest level below blue — level green, or “Protect Our Neighbors” — unless the county is formally in that level. Level green is the least-restrictive level on the dial.

It’s unclear whether virus trends will allow more metro counties to move to blue soon. Despite Broomfield and Jefferson counties moving to blue, their one-week rates of new cases as of March 1 appeared to have ticked up to levels that threaten to

move the counties back to level yellow.

Loss of progress possible Although Denver metro counties sit close to qualifying for looser restrictions, trends in the state as a whole may be on a risky track if Coloradans start to have more in-person contacts and let their guard down on behaviors such as mask-wearing.

A key indicator to watch is the “effective reproduction number,” sometimes written “Re,” a measure of how rapidly COVID-19 infections are spreading. The reproduction number shows how many people each infected person will, on average, likely spread the virus to. If the number sits below 1, infections are decreasing.

Colorado’s recent estimate is 0.95, reflecting the virus’ spread in early February. That means the rate of new cases could soon start to increase again if the public isn’t cautious.

Coloradans appeared to be having more in-person contacts in early February compared to in January, according to a Feb. 24 report by the Colorado School of Public Health. On top of that, if the more-contagious COVID-19 variant from the United Kingdom spreads rapidly in Colorado, the state could see another peak in hospital demand, the report says.

As of late February, Colorado was not seeing rapid spread of concerning variants, according to the state public-health department. But the UK variant could begin to take firmer hold by mid-March, the report says.

Grocery workers, Coloradans 60-plus now up for vaccine Ag workers, people with two or more high-risk conditions also prioritized

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In another fragmentation of Colorado’s long priority list for receiving a coronavirus vaccine, the state officially moved Coloradans ages 60 to 64 closer to the front of the line and placed grocery and agricultural workers as the next group of “frontline” employees to receive shots.

“I’m focused on ensuring that Coloradans who are at the most risk of COVID due to the environment they work in can receive the vaccine so we can save more lives and end this pandemic,” Gov. Jared Polis said in a Feb. 26 news release.

Soon after, public health officials highlighted the arrival of federal authorization for a third vaccine, the shot made by Johnson & Johnson — also known as the Janssen vaccine. That’s in addition to the previously approved Pfizer and Moderna shots.

“They were developed in record time,” John Douglas, executive director of Tri-County Health Department, said during a March 4 virtual town hall on vaccines in Colorado.

He added: “There have been some concerns by some people of, ‘Oh, that’s too fast. I’m not sure I really

trust those vaccines.’”

Douglas, who leads the public health department that covers Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties, emphasized to callers that the vaccine development process was safe.

Despite the speed, vaccines for COVID-19 “went through the same layers of review and testing as other vaccines,” an article by the University of Maryland Medical System says. “Due to the dire nature of the pandemic, certain barriers to development, related to funding and manufacturing, were removed.”

In Colorado, a new set of demographics reached their turn to receive shots on March 5, but people in the previous phases — such as Coloradans 70 and up — remain eligible and will still be prioritized, according to Tri-County Health.

Here’s a look at how the state’s vaccine schedule changed and some highlights from Tri-County Health’s town hall event on vaccines.

Changes leading up to now After Colorado received its first shipments of a COVID-19 vaccine on Dec. 14 and health-care centers began giving shots to health-care workers — part of the state’s first phase of vaccinations — the governor announced that starting Dec. 30, people 70 and older were eligible for the vaccine.

In 1972, the Associated Press broke news that the federal government had let hundreds of Black men in rural Alabama go untreated for syphilis for 40 years for research purposes. A public outcry ensued, and the “Tuskegee Syphilis Study” ended three months later, according to the AP. The effects of the study still linger — it’s routinely cited as a reason some Black Americans are reluctant to participate in medical research, or even go to the doctor for routine check-ups, the AP reported.

One caller to a March 4 TriCounty Health Department town hall about vaccines — an African-American retired firefighter from Aurora — brought up the experiment.

“I got my first shot, going to have my second shot” soon, the man said. He added that he “understands years ago the reluc-

tance” but wanted to know how he could convince others in his community that the COVID-19 vaccine should be trusted.

John Douglas, executive director of Tri-County Health Department, was glad the question was asked and encouraged the man to continue to spread the message among friends, former firefighters and others.

The vaccines were tested in a variety of different racial and ethnic backgrounds, Douglas said earlier in the event.

Data show that although people of color are underrepresented in the clinical trials for the two initial COVID-19 vaccines compared to their share of the population, the trials include people from diverse racial backgrounds and are more diverse than some trials have historically been, according to an article by the Kaiser Family Foundation.

Gallery welcomes ‘World of Color’ Renowned area watercolorist judged painting exhibition

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

“Terra Terminal,” a watercolor by skilled Littleton Fine Arts Guild painter Merrie Wicks, depicts what appears to be an old ferry converted to a terminal for other newer ferries to deliver passengers — location not identified, but I was reminded of the one that has carried me to visit my Marin County daughter in the North Bay area — always a highlight way to end a trip!

Juror Steve Griggs, a wellrecognized area watercolorist and teacher, chose it as Best of Show in the newly opened “World of Color” exhibit in Stanton Gallery at Town Hall Arts Center in downtown Littleton. The exhibit opened March 1 and will be open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays and during upcoming performances of the musical, “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown,” which opens later in March — on the 19th.

Griggs’ painting, “Doo Wah Diddy,” is hung to the right of the entry to the gallery and illustrates his technical skill with what is a tricky medium. Watercolors look transparent, sort of casual and clear, but one’s timing really has to

VACCINE

cine for a list of high-risk conditions.

Phase 1B3 began as expected, timewise, March 5.

FROM PAGE 6

By early January, some hospitals and other health care providers in the Tri-County jurisdiction began “phase 1B,” a stage that included people 70 and older and some health-care workers and first responders.

On Jan. 29, Colorado had again updated its vaccine schedule, rebranding that stage as phase 1B.1 and laying out a 1B.2 and a 1B.3.

Phase 1B.2 kicked off on Feb. 8 and included Coloradans age 65 to 69 and school workers for grades pre-K through 12, among other groups. At the time, the next step, 1B.3, was expected to include “frontline essential” workers in general, along with people age 16 to 64 with two or more highrisk health conditions.

Polis had announced that close to March 5, those groups would likely be eligible.

It was “also projected that Coloradans ages 60 and up will also be able to start receiving the vaccine around March 5,” a governor’s office news release said on Jan. 29.

Grocery, agriculture, 60-plus Now, the newly updated schedule for phase 1B.3 officially includes people age 60 to 64 and specifies agricultural and grocery store employees as the frontline workers with new priority. The phase includes people age 16 to 59 with two or more highrisk conditions. The change was dated Feb. 26.

See the chart about halfway down the page at covid19.colorado.gov/vac-

New phase up next The latest schedule added a phase 1B.4, expected to start in late March, that includes people age 50 and older — giving those Coloradans earlier priority than before — along with other frontline workers and people ages 16 to 49 with one higher-risk condition.

That includes frontline workers in the following fields: higher education staff in community colleges and colleges, food and restaurant services, manufacturing, the U.S. Postal Service, public transit and other transportation, governmental public health agencies, human services, faith leaders, direct care providers for Coloradans experiencing homelessness, and frontline journalists.

The phase somewhat mirrored the previously planned phase 2, which was set to begin in spring for Coloradans ages 60 to 64 and people with one high-risk condition.

Allergic reactions The newly authorized third vaccine is also known as the Janssen vaccine due to its manufacturer, Janssen Biotech Inc., which the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s website lists as “a Janssen Pharmaceutical Company of Johnson & Johnson.”

Aiming to calm fears about the vaccines, Douglas, the local health chief, told callers on the March 4 town hall event that few severe allergic reactions have occurred in response to the vaccine.

“Less than 1 in 200,000 will have an allergic reaction to this,” Douglas

said. “That’s the reason when you get the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, you’re advised to be under observation” for a short period of time.

Early safety monitoring of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine detected 10 cases of anaphylaxis — a severe, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction — after the reported administration of about 4 million first doses, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Variants and vaccines With some concerning variants of the virus circulating — such as the more-contagious variant from the United Kingdom — Douglas said current vaccines are expected to still offer protection.

“At least at this point, we don’t have any strains of COVID circulating in the U.S. that we think your Pfizer vaccine wouldn’t take good care of,” Douglas said.

He added: “Moderna and Pfizer are both developing vaccines to deal with some of the variant strains that have been identified, and they’re probably the farthest ahead” in the case that variants begin to pose a large problem to current vaccines.

Early investigations suggest the current vaccines, as well as Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine, may be somewhat less effective against some of the new variants in terms of preventing all symptoms. But even against variants, the vaccines do prevent a lot of mild and moderate cases, the data gathered so far suggest, and are very effective, health officials say, against preventing severe cases, hospitalizations and deaths, National Public Radio reported in early February.

Better read this if you are 62 or older and still making mortgage payments.

It’s a well-known fact that for many older Americans, the home is their single biggest asset. And with interest rates near all-time lows while home values are still high, this combination creates the perfect dynamic for getting the most out of your built-up equity.

But many aren’t taking advantage of this unprecedented period. According to new statistics, senior homeowners in the U.S. are now sitting on more than 7.7 trillion dollars* of unused home equity. It’s not surprising that more than a million homeowners have already used a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) loan to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement.

It’s a fact, with a government-insured HECM loan, no monthly mortgage payments are required; however, the borrowers are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and, if required, their HOA fees.

Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement. The cash from a HECM loan can be used for almost any purpose. Other common uses include making home improvements, paying off medical bills, or helping other family members. Some people simply need the extra cash for everyday expenses while others are now using it as a safety net for financial emergencies.

RTD FROM PAGE 1

“We’ve had this conversation for years running, of improving services and expanding services ... with limited luck,” Fussa said.

RTD provides three main services to the district: a shuttle for people with disabilities, a local Flexride shuttle and park-n-ride facilities.

Before they were suspended indefinitely due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the transportation district also provided a regional bus line, Route P, and a local bus line, Route 483.

Residents of Parker pay 8% in sales tax, which is divvied up between the town, the state, the county, RTD and the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District. RTD received 1% of the overall tax rate. Through that tax,

RECALL FROM PAGE 1

“I’m pleased we can put the distraction behind us as a community.

Recalls have long-lasting negative impacts,” she said, “as they create division and anger.”

Meek said the recall effort never influenced her decision-making as a board director. She supported resuming in-person learning now because teachers have either received first doses of the vaccine or have had an opportunity to make appointments, she said.

Vaccinations were “a game changer” for secondary schools, she said.

Parker provided about $11.5 million to RTD in 2019. That same year, the town received about $3.4 million in services, according to data provided to the town by RTD. “We’re taking that tax money and sending it to RTD and not getting services behind it,” Toborg said.

Toborg, elected in November of 2020, focused during his campaign on RTD as an issue he would address while in office.

From 2015 to 2019, less than 2% of the town’s residents used transit to commute to work on average. Even fewer nonresidents used transit for commuting, according to data from the town.

“This is obviously a long strategy we’re in,” Toborg said. “We need to figure out our transportation. We’d like to do it with RTD and get these services we need based on what we’re paying for … We’re going to

have to do what’s right for our businesses and our people.”

The town council hasn’t yet had discussions about a replacement for RTD, but Toborg said he plans to propose that the council form a citizen’s commission to address local transportation.

“We are going to have to figure out the solution in Parker,” he said. “I’m big on having the citizens involved in it.”

Bouquet believes this process of taking the decision to a vote and possibly forming a new transportation system would end up being more expensive and more hassle than the town realizes, he said.

“In my view, they’d be starting from scratch if they get rid of RTD, and that’s a huge expense put right back on the Town of Parker,” Bouquet said.

Bouquet added while he under-

stands the towns frustrations with the lack of services from RTD, he hopes to talk with town leaders about how to improve and possibly expand services as the district recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic and more people begin using transit again.

“I’m hoping to speak with the town council soon, opening up a dialogue about how can (RTD) better serve Parker,” he said. “The town does great things, but it isn’t totally focused on public transit and RTD is.”

From Toborg’s perspective, this isn’t just about transportation. It’s also about economic development in the town.

“We have to be able to sell to these new businesses coming in that we have some kind of transit plan that will help them get their workforce around,” he said. “We have all this opportunity, but we don’t have the transportation yet. But we will.”

While elementary schools enroll hundreds of students, high schools enroll thousands, she said, affecting how well they can follow pandemic protocols.

“The vaccinations are an additional mitigation factor that will help with the middle and high schools opening,” she said.

She has been critical of the recall group in the past, saying a special election would divert funds from classrooms needlessly when a general election is months away.

Ray said during directors’ March 2 meeting that district leadership has been planning for a full return since July and resuming 100% in-person learning has always been the goal of board directors.

As the district moved in and out of learning models this school year, directors and interim Superintendent Corey Wise have cited issues including health agency requirements for schools, substitute teacher shortages and fluctuations in the state of COVID-19 locally as factors influencing which learning model they implemented at a given time and at a given grade level.

Speaking to Colorado Community Media, Ray said he did not understand why the recall effort launched, partly because of its proximity to a general election.

Ray said he voted for a full return to in-person learning during the board’s March 2 board meeting because of declining COVID-19 cases in the county, the availability of vaccinations for teachers and because Tri-County Health Department Executive Director John Douglas gave the plan his blessing.

Safety metrics have been the major factor influencing his votes on which learning models the district implements, he said.

“I know people are frustrated and want kids in school,” he said.

“Regardless of the recall effort, we would have come to the same conclusion (on March 2) that we did.”

In response to Ray’s board meeting comments, Ormond criticized directors for their pandemic handling in January, saying in-person learning was not “even on the table” at that

time.

He has said all schools should have been able to safely offer in-person learning under state guidelines for students who prefer it.

Recall proponents had gathered roughly 40% of the signatures needed to call a special election, Ormond said. If the group decides to pick the effort back up, Ormond said he’s confident they could gather enough signatures before the deadline for filing signed petitions.

Although some group members are disappointed in the recall effort’s suspension, others see it as a successful grassroots effort that pressured directors into implementing in-person learning, Ormond said.

Moving forward, the recall group is shifting its focus to the November election, when four seats are up on the board.

A key issue for the group, newly minted as the “Road2Recovery” committee, will be how well directors execute the district’s plan for COVID-19 recovery, Ormond said, and the performance of the district’s permanent superintendent, who will likely be named in May. “We’re not going to let up any pressure there,” he said. “From a high level, my vision is to get the Douglas County School District to be the No. 1 school district again in Colorado, like it was a few years ago when I moved here.”

Newton

KEVIN NEWTON

Production Manager for Parker Arts loves changing lives through theater When I first moved to Colorado from Greenville, South Carolina, at the end of 2017, I lived in Parker, but have since bought a house in South Aurora. I am 43.

I used to work at the Peace Center in Greenville, South Carolina (a Performing Arts Center very similar to the Denver Center). I was looking for something that was more community-oriented and a workplace that valued work-life balance. When I saw the production manager position open at Parker Arts I applied and was offered the position. Parker Arts values both of those aspects I was searching for significantly.

I have been working professionally in theater and performing arts for 28 years. Colorado is the 11th state that I have worked professionally in this field. My main focus was lighting design before moving into management.

As the production manager for Parker Arts, I am responsible for all aspects of the shows, events and productions that take place in our various performance spaces.

This encompasses everything from the technical aspects — like lighting, sound, staging, video — to the scheduling, staffing and everything in-between.

Changed lives and tornadoes My favorite part of my job is knowing I help to change people’s lives. It may come in the form of help presenting a show that makes the audience think about points of view they have never thought about before, it may be that I help to bring live theater to children that have never had the chance to experience it before, or it may be that I help to present a show that allows the audi-

ence to take time from their stressful lives and just have a fun escape from their everyday worlds.

Strange requests from artists are pretty par-for-the-course, but the most bizarre situation I have ever encountered involved a performer who used to be in Simon & Garfunkel. We were in lockdown from an active tornado in the area that had touched down nearby. As I was walking through the dressing room hallway to make sure everyone was in a safe place, the performer came out of the dressing room and asked “excuse me, how long is this going to last?” to which I replied, “The tornado?” and he answered “Yes!” I replied “I am sorry but I do not know how long the tornado is going to last.” To which he huffed heavily and went back into his dressing room.

The success of my role is tied very closely to the amazing Parker Arts team. It really takes coordination with everyone at Parker Arts to make shows and events successful.

Little known facts about me I am a huge science fiction fan.

My two dogs are named Leia and Kylo. I also brew beer in my free time and love traveling and experiencing different cultures. After 9/11 I took a brief hiatus from theatre and trained to be a craps dealer in a casino.

A favorite memory from my theater past was when I was able to hang out and have some drinks with Bea Arthur on opening night after assisting as technical director mount her one-woman show. It was a small group of five of us, and after talking with her for about an hour she commented “Please tell your mother that she raised a very nice young man.” To this day my mother tells that story proudly.

Bill Schully checks one of the nesting boxes placed throughout Castle Rock to help improve the bluebird population.

PHOTOS COURTESY OF TOWN OF CASTLE ROCK

A group of hungry bluebirds cry inside the nesting boxes set up as part of the Colorado Bluebird Project in Castle Rock.

Castle Rock Bluebird Project continues to grow As bluebirds migrate back to the area, they have more than 190 boxes to nest and lay eggs in

BY THELMA GRIMES TGRIMES@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Protecting the bluebird population in Castle Rock originally began with a Boy Scout wanting to earn his Eagle merit badge. Now, it is a thriving program that continues to grow in volunteers and baby bluebirds each year.

Barbara Spagnuolo, Castle Rock’s natural resource specialist, said the scout originally placed 18 speciallybuilt nest boxes throughout the community in 2007. Now, there are more than 190 boxes at 32 sites, including schools.

“The ongoing interest in this project is so encouraging,” Spagnuolo said. “People want to see and encourage bluebirds. When we think of bluebirds, we think of color. We think of spring. Especially with the mountain bluebird.”

The Castle Rock program is part of the statewide Colorado Bluebird Project, which operates under the guidance of Denver Audubon. The overall mission is to improve the vitality of bluebird populations throughout Colorado and to inform and educate the public about the importance of bluebirds.

The project is important, Spagnuolo said, because bluebird populations have been impacted for a variety of reasons, including a decrease in natural nesting sites.

Spagnuolo said natural nesting cavities include old trees and wooden fence posts where woodpeckers create small crevices for the bluebird to take up housing. However, these options have been reduced over the years as development clears land and fencing is changed out for metal posts, she said.

Finally, Spagnuolo said one of the main causes of the decreasing bluebird populations is letting domestic housecats outside. Each year, Spagnuolo said an estimated one billion songbirds are lost to cats.

Currently, Spagnuolo said the Castle Rock program is gearing up for the 2021 season, which usually runs between April and August.

The start of egg-laying season for bluebirds, Spagnuolo said, may start later depending on late-season snow storms.

Spagnuolo said if bluebirds lay eggs early, it can result in the loss of a lot of baby birds. One season, she said a late storm resulted in the loss of more than 100 eggs.

Spagnuolo said the town relies heavily on volunteers each year.

The volunteers go through training before going out to monitor boxes.

They are taught what to look for, and it is stressed that they are never to handle the eggs or disturb the nesting birds.

The volunteers are also taught to identify the various bluebird species, and to understand the difference between a swallow and a bluebird. Spagnuolo said swallows have been known to take up residence in the nesting boxes.

Even if the nest, which is designed to fit the bluebird preferences, is taken up by a different bird species, volunteers do not mess with nature.

made of pine, redwood or cedar. The boxes are installed in late March, Spagnuolo said, before the bluebird population returns from winter migration.

Through the season, volunteers monitor when eggs are present, count how many actually hatch and after about three weeks, count how many babies leave the nest successfully.

“It is always such a joy to see (the bluebirds) using the next boxes that volunteers are monitoring and maintaining,” Spagnuolo said. “Seeing the bluebirds sitting on top of them is a good feeling.”

Spagnuolo said over the years, Castle Rock has had about 6,700 baby bluebirds successfully leave the nest boxes.

The community as a whole can get involved in the project. Spagnuolo said there are instructions on how to build a bluebird nest on the town’s website. She said residents are encouraged to put nests in their own yards to help increase the local bluebird population.

VOICES

An hour this Sunday will be no time at all

oon it will be time to change our clocks again. Why? It’s a semi-annual nuisance that is debated and argued about semi-annually too.

Between times, it’s forgotten.

Daylight Saving Time was advanced QUIET

by Benjamin FrankDESPERATION lin in a 1784 essay titled “An Economical Project.”

The justifications for Daylight Saving Time are numerous and make tedious reading.

(Please do so on your own.)

Craig Marshall Arizona and HaSmith waii do not change clocks. Seven other states have approved legislation to follow them and are awaiting federal approval. The feds are taking their time about it.

Some of the American citizenry experiences mood shifts when clocks are changed, particularly in

the fall.

Changing clocks is somewhat less of a nuisance than it once was when all clocks had to be manually changed.

Teens: Ask your moms and dads.

Wait: Teenagers don’t read me.

Now many timepieces change on their own.

I have a $19.99 clock radio that knows when it’s time, as it were.

Fall back and spring ahead.

We spring on Sunday, March 14.

I haven’t changed my car’s clock since last November. Why? Because changing the time on my car’s clock takes either tiny fingers or a toothpick.

I knew someone who always had a toothpick in his mouth and wondered why. Dental care is important, of course, but it can be taken too far.

He’d have it in his mouth when we played touch football and touch basketball.

It was, I thought, a big risk to have a toothpick in his mouth, but I guess the coolness of it made it worthwhile.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Recall died, now fund schools As a public school teacher and Douglas County parent, I feel deep empathy for parents who have struggled with this unprecedented and enormously difficult year. I’ve resigned myself that I probably won’t change the minds of those who were adamantly on board with the (now rescinded) recall effort, but instead, I would like to ask this: If you care about the health and future of our public schools, I hope you’ll consider raising your voice and your vote with as much passion next time (and any time) a future ballot issue arises that will fund our public schools.

While anger and frustration are natural responses to the trauma we’ve endured as a collective society this year, recalling a school board seems to be a knee-jerk reaction to an impossible situation aggravated by years of neglect and underfunding of our public schools.

I lost track of him. Maybe he swallowed one and maybe he didn’t.

You can still see men — never women — with a toothpicks in their mouths if you watch old movies, especially ones with gangsters.

Gangsters, private investigators, and policemen always had toothpicks nearby.

“Crime Wave,” starring Sterling Hayden, is recommended. The language is pure, stilted pulp. Hayden’s character says, “I love to smoke cigarettes. But the doctors say I can’t have them.”

Then adds, “So what do I do? I chew toothpicks. Tons of them.”

Half the time, he wears a fedora sideways that looks like it’s kept under his pillow at night.

No one messes with him because he’s the size of a power forward.

Stick around for the final scene when he relapses and smokes a cigarette that has a dog leg to the left.

I thought it was a flub, but it’s likely the director wanted Hayden to be inelegant to the end.

It’s not a comedy but the “patter” might make you laugh a little if you’re not used to noir talk.

When Hayden made the film (1953) you didn’t need tiny fingers or a toothpick to change the car clock.

I don’t know where to get tiny fingers. A friend said she and her daughters rescued a baby squirrel and domesticated it.

“It even put itself to bed every night at 8:30 on the button.”

I didn’t ask if the little fellow made the necessary adjustments semi-annually, or if half the year he went to bed at 7:30.

With Daylight Saving Time right around the corner, I don’t have enough time to find and train a baby squirrel to change my car clock.

Nuts.

Maybe by November?

High country lesson: Balance creates perspective

“S

ome see the glass half full. Others see it half empty. I see a glass that is twice as big as it needs to be.” — George Carlin Isn’t that the way it seems these days? Sometimes we see the glass as half full, or half empty, WINNING depending on the WORDS day or our mood.

And other times it is the people we are speaking with or the posts we read where others are overly optimistic about an event or situation while others only see the Michael Norton gloom or danger.

Fair and balanced is apparently in the eyes and the hands of the one holding the glass.

When we are out of balance, there is a good chance that our perspective can change. For those of us who enjoy skiing, we know what being off-balance feels like as it usually ends in a cloud of white and our gear splayed out across the mountain.

I love to ski, and I especially

love to ski the trees. A mountain I have spent more days on than any other mountain is Beaver Creek.

For more than 20 years I have enjoyed skiing there and have come to know the mountain like the back of my hand. My confidence on each run growing with each passing season. That included some of the best tree skiing that I have ever enjoyed. And as my confidence grew, my recklessness also increased. I was out of balance.

While skiing alone one day I had decided that a tree run called “Stickline” was a good idea. It was a powder day in the middle of the week and there were not a lot of other skiers on the hill that day. With my powder skis on I headed into the trees. It was awesome, quiet, and thrilling all at the same time. All was going incredibly well until I came around a tree a little too fast and missed my next turn, I overcorrected and fell. Once I had dug myself out of the hole I was in, I had realized that during my fall, I had lost one of my ski poles.

After much digging around in the powder, I could not find it. My

ski pole was gone and so was my balance.

As an avid skier and someone who has made hundreds of runs through the trees, since my balance was gone, so was my perspective. The trees looked tighter, the air became thicker, my body temperature was rising while my eyes scanned the forest for the easiest way out. Each time I started to regain my balance, the trail was closing in on me, limiting my progress. Pretty soon I was a puddle of sweat, my goggles were fogging up, and my pulse was racing. I stopped again, lifted my goggles, took off my helmet, and leaned against a tree to catch my breath. And in that moment, I knew that balance would be the key to getting out, balance would provide the necessary perspective to showing me the openings and preparing me for each turn. So, with renewed balance and perspective I made it out safely.

I wanted to share this with you because there is no shortage of sources of input and influence today. And those we hear, see, and

board unanimously voted to return the district to full in-class learning.

Only grassroots pressure inspired them to finally make a commonsense decision. This is a victory, but their leadership failures will continue until four are replaced in November. The awful psychological, emotional, suicidal, and educational damage children experience when denied socialization and learning in school have been discussed by experts for months in the media and are well-known.

The BOE has ignored that science.

Medical experts including Dr. Fauci and the CDC have urged rapid return to in-person school. The BOE has ignored that science.

In summer 2020, the district received over 32,000 responses to a survey asking parents to choose between in-person or e-learning.

Eighty-four percent of parents, who are responsible for weighing medical risks to their children, chose in-person. The district ignored them and wobbled back

and forth from remote learning to in-person to hybrid, wreaking scheduling havoc for working parents and their children, many of whom cannot learn via computer.

Attempting to conceal that kids are falling behind academically, this board dumbed down the grade scale so a C, formerly 70-79, is now 64-75 and other grades are similarly altered. The directors have ignored that the district’s 33 public charter schools have been open for most of the pandemic yet experienced virtually no contagions. Our children are finally back to school and now we turn to replacing this failed board.

Joy Overbeck Parker Enough self-congratulation The sponsors of the now-defunct Douglas County School Board recall seem happy to take credit where none is due. In fact, they’re patting themselves on the back.

“We have no doubt they would have persisted in the wrong course without pressure from you, our amazing volunteers. Together, we’ve won a major victory.”

For those of us who consider

facts, and not hyperbole, the Douglas County Board’s decision to open schools aligns with similar action across Colorado and the country.

Simply stated, the DCSB recall was an ill-conceived public relations action designed to reinforce division in the community. Let’s hope the people behind the recall can shift focus to getting our kids back to class under public health guidelines — wear a mask, maintain 6 feet distance and wash our hands.

Lloyd Guthrie Roxborough Park Charters lead way amid COVID If the Douglas County School District (DCSD) Board is looking for exemplars on how to competently reopen schools, they need not look further than the resilient charter schools across this district.

As our school board members continue to participate in politics of fear and navigate the neverending ether of remote-or-hybrid learning, many charters in our district have achieved success through valuing input from parents and the education of their stu-

dents — and as a result, providing in-person learning with a remote option.

I was unaware that allowing parental choice would be such a novel idea. One would think that a board that clinched their power on the promise of valuing parent input would favor such a model that values the voices of parents as stakeholders in their children’s education.

Further — in examples such as American Academy — there have been fewer and fewer students in remote learning with more and more receiving the benefits of inperson learning. All of this without having their three campuses become epicenters of any widespread of COVID-19 cases.

Charter schools in Douglas County are leading the way, acting as the gold standard for a brighter academic and social future for our children. They value the input of parents and act based on data, science, and the best intentions for their teachers and students.

We need a school board that will respect us similarly.

Craft bean roasters find their niche as they appeal to refined tastes

BY DEB HURLEY BROBST DBROBST@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

J

ava, joe, coffee — no matter what we call it, coffee is an integral part of many people’s lives, and metro Denver is known for its craft coffee.

For craft coffee roasters, it’s all about the coffee bean — where it’s from, how it’s grown and how it’s roasted. They have created their roasting companies in the last 10 years, and they are passionate about providing the area with the perfect cup of coffee.

AJ Payne, general manager of Hunter Bay Coffee Roasters in Olde Town Arvada, likened the craft coffee industry to the craft beer industry, something the Front Range is known for.

“Breweries have popped up,” Payne said, “and I see the same thing happening with coffee. I think that you will see more and more smaller batch roasters in cafés (who are) roasting at least for their own cafés.”

Andy Sprenger, owner of Sweet Bloom Coffee Roasters in Lakewood and Arvada, agreed.

“I’m super grateful to the craft beer industry for creating that space for independents to serve a higherquality product,” he said. “I feel like they paved the way for craft coffee.”

He believes the metro area’s younger demographic is looking for something unique in its coffee.

“I think this is one of the ways Colorado is special. This part of the world attracts a bit of a younger crowd,” Sprenger explained. “Colorado really likes to focus on small, craft, higher quality products, and (people are) willing to pay for them.”

Scott Wilton, operations manager for Bivouac Coffee Roastery and Tasting Room in Evergreen, suggested that Colorado residents enjoy experiences.

“The reason people like craft beer and coffee is the experience with the product you get to enjoy,” he said.

Sprenger added that coffee has a way of allowing people to connect, especially when they linger with friends over a cup, which has paved the way for coffee-drinkers to become particular about the beverage.

“People have gotten picky about their coffee,” said René Steenvoorden, Bivouac’s owner. “There’s a lot of creativity in coffee. Every time you go to a coffee place, the way it is sourced, roasted and made — even the milk you use makes (the coffee) different. I think that makes it interesting and creates a market.”

Landon Harmon, owner of Bearded Man Coffee in Highlands Ranch, likened craft coffee-bean roasting to winemaking. The kind of grape, the elevation it is grown at and when it is harvested can change the taste of the wine just like the type of coffee bean, the elevation it’s grown at and

“The exact same (coffee) plant grown at one elevation can be so vastly different than another (elevation) because of Mother Nature,” he said.

In addition, just as with craft beer brewing and winemaking, it’s important to have a variety of options for a variety of tastes, said Matt Kurgan, owner of Pangea Coffee Roasters in Golden.

the key. Giving customers what they want is a tough thing because there are so many different people out there.”

Tracking the trends Coffee, like beer, is constantly evolving, and these craft roasters are always looking for something new to keep coffee drinkers happy.

Sweet Bloom, for example, never envisioned online sales, which were necessitated by the pandemic if the roastery wanted to stay in business, Sprenger said.

“I do think that’s going to be something that will stick around,” Sprenger said. “People have learned to brew coffee at home, which means more whole-bean sales.”

Harmon added that the pandemic has made single-brew cups become even more important.

“Now with the single-serve pod, people can control exactly what they want to taste versus a bag of coffee,” Harmon said.

“Once I sell you a bag of coffee, I lose control of the end result. With a single-serve pod, there’s more control.”

In addition, Kurgan explained that technology has improved, so roasters can keep data

Peanuts “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown,” based on the comic strip by Charles M. Schulz, plays March 19 through April 18 at Town Hall Arts Center in downtown Littleton, assuming, of course that we stay at the current level of COVID restrictions. Only 62 tickets can be sold for each show and THAC will also offer it streamed online April 9-11 and 16-18. Performances will be in socially distanced groups of one, two or three seats.

Tickets for in-person performances cost $47-$52. For virtual show tix, the cost is $26. See townhallartscenter.org or call 303-794-2787. Box office hours: 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday to Friday.

DMNS The “Stonehenge: Ancient Mysteries and Modern Discoveries” exhibition opens March 12 at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, 2001 Colorado Blvd., Denver. It presents original artifacts and the latest re-

on the roasting process and the coffee-bean mixtures that make up the blends — ensuring consistency in the roasting process.

Payne believes coffee aficionados are moving away from the super-dark roast coffees toward lighter roasts because they are looking for more natural and robust coffee flavors.

“When you roast something very dark, you don’t get as much flavor,” Payne said.

He compared it to cooking a steak well done rather than medium-rare. People usually add sauces to make a well-done steak taste better.

“I order a medium-rare to medium steak because I like to taste the steak,” he said.

He also mentioned that cold-brew coffees are becoming more popular.

The roastery owners say drinking coffee is a regular part of their lives — between two and six cups a day plus tasting the roasts.

In fact, Sprenger says his biggest fear about COVID-19 is the possibility of losing his sense of taste, which is vital in the profession.

“I want to make sure the coffee is where we want it to be, especially when choosing new coffee,” Sprenger said. “Having taste buds firing on all cylinders is important.”

Harmon added: “If I enjoy (the coffee), I feel like I’m a good balance toward being overly snobby about my coffee and knowing what tastes really good.”

Interestingly, Payne said, Hunter Bay is not a location; rather it’s the maiden names of the original owners.

Pangea Coffee Roasters offers a variety of coffee as it tries to please the tastebuds of its clientele. Luckily, according to owner Matt Kurgan, there are always new coffee beans to roast to get unique flavors.

“Our coffees just change so frequently,” he said, “that not one coffee is around for long. People ask to try our best seller, but that’s hard to define.”

Pangea, which roasts its coffee and operates a café in Golden, brings in coffee beans from Ethiopia, Sumatra, Burundi, Mexico, Bali and more.

Sweet Bloom Coffee Roasters in Lakewood and Arvada is named after the coffee plant’s white bloom. In addition, according to the website, “exceptional coffee, freshly roasted and ground, blooms again when infused with hot water — equally fragrant and even more complex.”

Owner Andy Sprenger said as he has learned more about coffee, he has developed a love for its international aspect.

“We want to celebrate cultures at Sweet Bloom,” he said.

Sweet Bloom takes a seasonal approach to coffee, he explained, with a wide range of coffees that rotate throughout the year.

Its Hometown Blend is one of its best sellers, Sprenger said, noting that people start with something they really like, then branch out and try other roasts.

SUE stomps back to the Denver Museum of Nature & Science Most complete T. rex continues to share secrets

BY CLARKE READER SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

For many people, the Tyrannosaurus rex is the dinosaur, and it’s easy to understand why. There’s no animal today that comes close to the sheer intimidation and raw power that this Cretaceous-era dinosaur possessed. But there’s still a lot to learn about this predator. And that’s where SUE comes in.

The T. rex known as SUE is the most complete and best-preserved Tyrannosaurus to be discovered so far. It was discovered by Sue Hendrickson — hence its nickname — in South Dakota in 1990. More than 30 years later, it is still offering scientists all kinds of glimpses into the life and times of the “King of the Tyrant Lizards.”

And now Denver residents can enter SUE’s world and see the animal itself at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science.

“We had SUE in 2012, (but) it was in a different setup back then. That’s because we’re changing our views of dinosaurs all the time,” said Dr. Joe Sertich, museum curator of dinosaurs. “In 10 years, SUE could be back with a completely different setup based on new discoveries.”

SUE: The T. rex Experience — on loan from the Field Museum in Chicago — features an exact cast of SUE’s skeleton, which, according to provided information, measures 40 feet from snout to tail and 13 feet tall at the hip. To help visitors get a sense of what the animal actually looked like, there is also a full-sized replica of SUE — with a sample of what it would’ve dined on. The exhibit also features animations, touchable bronze casts of SUE’s bones and a multimedia light show that provides insight into its bones.

One of the most fascinating new pieces of information is also the most visible — the gastralia, or belly ribs, that stretched across the T. rex’s abdomen and helped it to breathe. These were not part of SUE’s anatomy during its last visit and are a testament to how big discoveries are still waiting to be made.

As is so often the case, it’s the museum’s additions from its own

The T. rex Experience will be on display at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, 2001 Colorado Blvd. in Denver, through April 25.

Along with animations, touchable bronze casts of SUE’s bones and a multimedia light show, the exhibit features an exact cast of PHOTOS BY CHRIS SCHNEIDER/DENVER MUSEUM OF NATURE AND SCIENCE SUE’s 40-foot-long skeleton.

VISIT SUE SUE: The T. rex Experience will be on display at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, 2001 Colorado Blvd. in Denver, through April 25.

A timed ticket for museum entry and a separate timed ticket for entry into the SUE exhibit is required.

For more information on SUE and ticketing, visit dmns.org. collections that give the exhibit added depth and nuance. And when it comes to Colorado and dinosaurs, there’s a lot to say.

“The first Triceratops fossils were found in the area in 1887 in what is now the Highlands neighborhood,” Sertich said. “Focusing on SUE’s world highlights that this is very much a Denver Museum story as well. I think there’s no better exhibit for this museum than SUE.” There are more than 20 speci-

mens from the museum featured in the exhibit, including femur and a vertebra of the only T. rex skeleton ever found in the state, part of the Triceratops found at a construction site in Highlands Ranch in 2019, the jaw from the Torosaurus that was found in Thornton in 2017 and more.

Not only do these local connections highlight and explore what Colorado was like millions of years

ago, they also emphasize how diverse species and ecosystem information paint a picture of a world in flux — both then and now.

“It has taken a long time from the early days of the dinosaur bone rush to see these animals as living, breathing creatures who were always changing,” Sertich said. “All this teaches us a lot about (how) life responded to change back then, and that has relevance to today.”

COVID-19 can lead to parenting disputes Parents navigating medical care decisions during pandemic

themselves at odds of pandemic response.

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As opinions abound on COVID-19, disagreements about how to handle the pandemic have made their way into the world of family law.

Leslie Hansen of Griffiths Law, PC has worked in family law for 20 years. Her background includes time as a prosecutor in both the Denver District Attorney’s Office and the Hansen 18th Judicial District, plus several years in the private practice. Hansen now exclusively focuses on family law at her Lone Tree firm. She spoke to Colorado Community Media about the COVID-19 pandemic’s effect on family disputes and what advice she has for parents who find

Not uncommon Hansen said parental disputes about a child’s medical care are not terribly common, but they do come up.

Parents have typically established how to approach issues like vaccinations before separating or divorcing, she said. That doesn’t mean one person never has a change of heart, and with joint custody being the most common arrangement among co-parents, that can lead to a legal battle.

Settling the issue The COVID-19 pandemic did not change how these legal disputes are settled, Hansen said. It’s the responsibility of the parent seeking to change who controls a child’s medical care to prove their child’s mental or physical health is endangered.

Ultimately a judge decides whether to grant one parent sole power.

The judge may pay close attention to a family’s history and how medi-

cal decisions were made previously, whether a parent’s stance is rooted in a concern like religious rights, or they might focus more on medical evidence presented in court, Hansen said.

“The only impact COVID might have is that the court may advance a case like that on their docket, just because the risk of getting COVID when we are in a worldwide pandemic,” Hansen said, “is a question that needs to be decided right now.”

Pandemic disagreements Legal standards remain the same, but the pandemic did create new challenges for parents navigating their children’s medical care, Hansen said.

“We’ve seen an uptick in disputes regarding COVID generally,” she said.

Some parents did not agree about court-determined schedules as shutdowns and social-distancing became the norm. Others did not agree about traveling with children during the crisis. One parent may have supported wearing masks

while the other did not. Or another said children should attend school remotely while the other preferred an in-person model.

The recent availability of COVID-19 vaccinations presented one more pandemic-related issue for parents, Hansen said.

“With regard to vaccination, I think my No. 1 piece of advice to a parent on either side of this issue is what does the child’s pediatrician say,” Hansen said. “In either case, you better have some medical testimony.”

Looking ahead COVID-19 will likely have lasting effects on family law, Hansen said.

The pandemic came as a shock for many people, but moving forward she expects parents will take into account more unexpected or unthinkable circumstances in their settlement agreements.

“I think you’re going to see parents who want to lock these kinds of things down,” she said. “It’s going to get people thinking about when this happens again, how did we handle it.”

C R O S S W O R D Ponderosa qualifies 10 wrestlers for state tournament P U Z Z L E Area teams poised for postseason competition

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Ponderosa captured the Region 2 wrestling championship at Cherokee Trail High School on March 6.

There were four regional championships for Class 5A, with the top two wrestlers in each weight division qualifying for the state tournament, which will be held March 12-13 in Pueblo.

Ponderosa had eight regional champions and qualified 10 wrestlers for the state tournament.

Top player ready to do what’s needed University of Wyoming is next stop for hoops standout

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Ben Bowen is doing what he claims is “whatever” for the Mountain Vista boys basketball team.

Bowen, a 6-5 senior who will be heading next season to the University of Wyoming to play basketball, was the leading scorer in the Continental League with a 20.1 scoring average during the regular season.

He was also the league leader in free throws made with 85, third with 90 made field goals and fifth with 65 assists or a 4.6 average.

He was second in the Continental League with three double doubles.

“Ben is having a great season,” said Vista head coach Brian Wood.

“He has improved a lot since last year and we ask him to do so much more for us than we asked last year.

In my opinion, he is the best player in 5A.” Bowen is definitely the featured player for the Golden Eagles, who were ranked seventh in the CHSAANow.com poll on March 1.

“I am just doing whatever it is to win,” said Bowen. “If I need to go out and score 50 points, I’m going to go out and try to score 50 points. If I’m going to have to have no points and 20 assists, I’m going to try to do that.

“Whatever it is that they want me to do. Bob (assistant coach Bob Wood) and Brian are two of the best basketball minds in Colorado, so I will try to do what they say and buy into their process.”

Mountain Vista faced two tough opponents during the last week of the regular season. Top-ranked Cherry Creek downed the Golden Eagles, 79-61, on March 1 and second-ranked Regis Jesuit prevailed, 62-55, in a March 3 contest.

Bowen had 19 points against Creek and had a double double of

29 points and 13 rebounds against Regis.

“It’s been an up-and-down year with everything going on,” said Bowen. “I feel that I could be playing better than I am. I am not necessarily playing bad but there’s always places where I can improve.”

Bowen is the son of Denver Nuggets assistant coach Ryan Bowen, who played at the University of Iowa and for four NBA teams including the Nuggets.

“It’s crazy to look back on the player I was when I came in as a freshman. So many people I have to thank for my development, my dad

especially. I have become a better player and person.

“He’s been everything. Looking back he’s always had a plan. I always say my Mom was the one who always believed I would become a real good player but my Dad was always the one who pushed me and pulled me along when I didn’t want to. I will also be grateful for that.”

Bowen can be easily spotted on the basketball court, wearing the number 13 on his jersey.

“I wanted to wear number 40 because that’s what my Dad wore for a lot of his career but we don’t have a number 40,” said Bowen. “I just

chose 13 and I’ve had it since my sophomore year. I had last pick my sophomore year because I was the youngest on the team and I’ve just stuck with it.”

Vista headed into the 32-team Class 5A tournament on March 9 and Bowen knows the Golden Eagles will have to be accurate with their shooting.

“We have to step up and knock down some shots,” he confessed.

“We’re getting good looks in my opinion. We have good shooters. We are really good defensively. Anything can happen in the tournament.”

West. Guard Payton Muma of Highlands Ranch wrapped up the regular season as the Continental League leader in scoring (19.0), field goals (84), made 3-point shots (37), assists (5.8 average) and steals (3.7) after 12 games.

ThunderRidge 45, Dakota Ridge 29: Regan Keyter turned in 12 points and 17 rebounds in a March 1 win.

son Scott scored twice to lead the Eagles, ranked 10th, to an upset win over previously unbeaten and top-ranked Regis Jesuit on March 5. The Raiders rebounded with a 4-1 conquest over Cherry Creek on March 6.

Mountain Vista 4, Louis-Palmer 0: Jacob Strawn scored twice and Austin Quinn made 16 saves in a March 2 triumph for the No. 8 Golden Eagles. Mountain Vista scored first but Valor Christian came away with a 4-1 victory on

March 6.

Chaparral 3, Mountain Vista 3: The sixth-ranked Wolverines rallied to force an overtime in a March 5 tie with Vista. Landen Shay tallied a short-handed goal at 4:38 of the third period for Chaparral to force the scoreless overtime.

Cherry Creek 8, Dakota Ridge 1: Tanner Sones had a hat trick and Brayden Orlowski finished with four points with a goal and three assists as the No. 7 Bruins rolled to a March 5 triumph.
