Pro Cycling Challenge a smashing success An estimated 10,000 fans turned out for the Stage 5 start on Aug. 22 By Danny Summers
dsummers@colorado communitymedia.com Logan Mackay arrived at the start village in Woodland Park on Aug. 22 long before most of the other 10,000 spectators jammed downtown. The Madison, Wisconsin, resident spent the previous night at a motel in Manitou Springs, studying up on his favorite cyclists from around the world and hoping to breathe in as much of the thin mountain air and atmosphere surrounding the Stage 5 start of the USA Pro Cycling Challenge. “I came here to do some mountain biking myself and to watch this race,” Mackay said. Mackay followed the first five days of the week-long event like a bear trolling for fish in a stream. “I was up in Crested Butte and I was up on Monarch Pass and I was down in (Colorado) Springs yesterday,” Mackay said. “I was able to get over to Garden of the Gods and then downtown to see the end of the race.” Of the thousands of people who gathered for the start of the race, most (maybe 80 percent) were there strictly because of

Businesses from around Woodland Park and neighboring towns set up vending booths, while security (in the hundreds from several Colorado towns) patrolled the streets to make sure that ev-

more than 11,000 feet Hoosier Pass. “This is my last stop,” Mackay said. “It’s been great to catch as much as I can. Cycling continues on Page 4

In the battle to slow the downstream flow of water on Fountain Creek the culprits include Mother Nature. “Our weather patterns have shifted globally and across the United States based on shifting currents coming out of the Pacific Ocean,” said Steve Steed, Teller County’s director of emergency management. For Crystola residents, the ravages of summer rainstorms have taken out bridges and culverts and wreaked havoc on at least one homeowner’s leach field. “We have four or five residents who are impacted here,” Steed said, referring to homes along CR 21 which runs adjacent to Fountain Creek. “When they bought the property they knew that parts of it were in a floodplain. The homeowner needs to have some kind of understanding and accountability for where they live and where the water flows.” Fred Clifford, the county’s public works director, acknowledges the concerns of the Crystola residents while giving a nod to more powerful forces. “When it gets to be a flash flood and exceeds a 50- to 75-year flood, culverts and bridges are not designed for any more than that,” he said. “You’re going to get water going wherever it wants.” Driving along CR 21, Clifford, along with Steed and Sheryl Decker, the county administrator, review mitigation efforts in that area. “Our main concerns are fence line to fence line, roadside drainage and protecting rights-of-way,” Clifford said. “After a flooding event, we make sure these roads and bridges are safe for travel.” As the severity of rainstorms increases, county road crews concentrate on the ditches on CR 21.
“We dug the ditches so they can accept water,” Clifford said. “Part of our roadside drainage system includes driveway culverts that homeowners are responsible for cleaning. We’re engaging our engineer to look at projects where it makes sense.” Continuing along the road, Clifford points to several mitigation projects, including the resurfacing of the top of the bridge just east of Wal-Mart. “The hard surface allows water to flow off the bridge,” Clifford said. But it’s the mitigation work in the Summer Haven subdivision that shows Clifford’s command of the drainage on mountainous, curvy terrain. “We wanted to find a way to have that water turn the corner and send it down to the ditches to protect our road and the utilities,” he said. “They piped it underground so it turns the corner in a pipe instead of in a ditch where it can erode.” At the intersection of Summer Haven and CR 21, the county has mitigated the flow with rap rap, rocks that provide a foundation to protect the creek bed. At the confluence of Crystola and Fountain creeks at Creekside and Crystola Canyon roads, the county has installed “twin cans,” or two box culverts. In the creek bed behind the Crystola, the arched culvert is another point on the mitigation map. “If we didn’t dredge it, the culvert would be closed; these drainage structures are accepting as much water as they’re designed to accept,” Clifford said. Speaking of the projects, Decker said, “We want to make sure what we do works — we don’t want to just fix our problem and send it downhill.” In the Aug. 20 edition of the Courier, Sally Clark, who lives in Crystola Canyon, highlighted the flooding problems experienced by her neighbors. As a result, she has

We can’t
always design what Mother Nature will throw at us,” Clifford said. “Everybody has to be cognizant but you can be responsible, spend as much money as you want, but if Mother Nature puts down that rain amount, the best laid plans ... ”

“Our next challenges will be the Safeway and Saddle Club reaches. We’ve learned some lessons from all this: Take responsibility or be held responsible.” Public Works Director William Alspach
WP Aquatic Center bond question will go to voters DeVaux returns to Downtown Development Authority Board By Norma Engelberg Contributing writer A bond question for the Nov. 4 General Election ballot asking Woodland Park voters to approve a $10.1 million debt with a maximum $15.7 million pay-off to build an aquatic center received unanimous approval from the Woodland Park City Council on Aug. 21. They seemed surprised that there was no public comment either for or against it. The question came after a presentation by Public Works Director William Alspach and Utilities Director Kip Wiley on the Fountain Creek project. Work using a Federal Emergency Management Agency Grant was recently completed. Until now, most of the work on Fountain Creek has been completed with either FEMA or Colorado Department of Transportation grants but the next creek improvements will be paid for with city funds. “Our next challenges will be the Safeway and Saddle Club reaches,” Alspach said. “We’ve learned some lessons from all this: Take responsibility or be held responsible.” With costly storm-water improvements in the city’s future, Councilmember Gary
Brovetto expressed concerns that funding the aquatic center might adversely affect funding for Fountain Creek. City Manager David Buttery assured the council that the aquatic center debt, if approved by voters, will have minimal effect on storm-water projects. “Aquatic center funding would come out of the general fund while storm-water improvements come out of the city’s 410 fund,” he said. “It (the aquatic center debt) might impact covers for the hockey rink and tennis courts and new baseball fields at Meadow Wood Sports Complex; we know money doesn’t grow on trees.” Before voting on the question, Councilmember Ken Matthews emphasized that the increased debt would not create new taxes. “We can’t say that often enough,” he said. City Attorney Erin Smith pointed out that once the council approves the question it will be allowed to approve a resolution in support but that is all. They can support it and even campaign for it as private citizens and no city funds or workforce labor and supplies can be used to support the bond question. “Staff can answer unsolicited questions from the public and create a neutral, information-only brochure,” she said. Bob Carlsen, the council’s liaison to the Woodland Aquatic Project Board, said he
will exercise his First-Amendment right and will kick off the bond-question campaign on Aug. 22, during the USA Pro Challenge cycling race. “Congratulations to all of us,” Mayor Neil Levy said, after the unanimous vote. After a whispered conversation with Smith, he added: “That’s all we can say tonight.” The council also interviewed three applicants for a seat on the Downtown Development Authority Board of Directors. Two of the applicants, April Babin and David Bramwell, had never applied for city boards or commissions. The third applicant was planning commissioner and former councilmember Jon DeVaux, who with the exception of the last two years, has served on the board since its inception. At the request of Mayor Pro Tem Carrol Harvey, the applicants were sequestered during interviews. The council voted unanimously to take advantage of DeVaux’s experience but encouraged Babin and Bramwell to continue to increase their knowledge and try again when the city has other appointments to make. The council tabled requests for permits from Teller County Waste to the Oct. 16 meeting and approved on first reading a request for a conditional use permit from Tom Lichina to expand Lichina Automotive and set the public hearing for Sept. 4. The city clerk’s office requested ap-
proval of a resolution to adopt the 2011 edition of the Colorado Municipal Records Retention Schedule. Deputy Clerk Suzanne Leclercq said the city already uses the schedule but the resolution makes it official. The clerk’s office is implementing an electronic records management system that will digitalize city records and make them easy for the public and city staff to access. During the public comment portion of the meeting, Woodland Park resident Gene Kozleski, who served on the council in various capacities for 12 years, expressed concerns about the way the council chose a new mayor on Aug. 12. Councilmembers acknowledged that there were problems but that the new mayor has their full support. City Clerk Cindy Morse said the mayor’s appointment was the first time there had ever been a tie. The council agreed that changes to the selection process could be in the offing. Buttery warned the public that someone has hacked the city’s Voice Over Internet telephone system and has used city numbers to make inappropriate calls to city residents. “If you think you’ve received one of these calls, call us back,” he said. “We’re working with the police to end this. Please call us back; these calls are not from us.”

WP Police Chief celebrates 35 years of service Honored by city, other law-enforcement leaders By Norma Engelberg Contributing writer
Robert Larson was hired as a young officer to the Woodland Park Police Department in 1979. He served in the U.S. Army Military Police and as a Green Mountain Falls police officer prior to being hired. He worked his way up through department ranks until reaching the top position: police chief.
His 35 years of continuous service to the Woodland Park community makes him the longest serving person on the city staff, as was pointed out to the Woodland Park City Council and audience at the Aug. 21 council meeting by City Manager David Buttery. “Through all those years he has been a trusted adviser,” Buttery said. “His calm demeanor was an example to us all during the Waldo Canyon Fire. He cares deeply for this community. His team and their families, including his wife Chris, are here tonight; they’ve supported him through thick and thin and they’ve seen both.” For his longtime service, Larson re-
ceived what Buttery called the “largest plaque in Woodland Park history.” After a standing ovation, his friend and former chief, Mike Rulo, also presented him a much smaller plaque. Rulo, who currently serves as the temporary chief of the Cripple Creek Police Department, served with Larson in the Army, in Green Mountain Falls and for 20 years in the WPPD. Teller County Sheriff Mike Ensminger said he has known Larson since 1956 and that he planned to present a plaque but it wasn’t ready. Rulo teased that Ensminger was also planning to give Larson a large “Ensminger for Sheriff” sign for his yard
and plenty of bumper stickers. “Larson is an inspiration to law enforcement in Teller County,” Ensminger said after the laughter abated. “Larson has frequented my restaurant and couldn’t be a nicer person to work with and wait on,” Mayor Neil Levy said. “He treats the busboys and dishwashers the same way he treats the owner.” “Thank you for the kind words,” Larson said. “I appreciate all of you coming to this meeting.” He stayed in his usual place at the meeting while most of his officers and families departed.

Library/school come to terms By Pat Hill
phill@coloradocommunitymedia.com A dispute that threatened a 38-year relationship between the library and school boards in Cripple Creek is resolved. Last week, the Southern Teller County Library District agreed to share expenses with the Re-1 School District for the Franklin Ferguson Memorial Library. The library is adjacent to the Cripple Creek/ Victor High School. The Memorandum of Understanding, signed by Penni Donatto and Tim Braun, presidents of the library and school boards, respectively, covers the next 20 years. Under the MOU, the districts agree to share the annual cost of employing a full-time library director, with the library board paying 60 percent, or $38,627, and the school district the remaining $25,751. The library board also agreed to work with the school administration to provide classes and programs for students and staff. Both districts will share resources within the library and make them available for public use. All material, equipment or money received through grants that list either party as a partner will be jointly-owned. Each party agreed to purchase separate liability insurance policies and the library will not be charged rent or utilities. The agreement breaks a two-month impasse that was ugly at times. In May, the library’s directors were surprised and infuriated when the school board changed the terms of the MOU. Among the changes was the requirement that the library purchase its own $2 mil-

Photo by Pat Hill lion liability insurance policy. As a result, Mike McDonald, a teacher, submitted his resignation to the school. In the meantime, he, several board members and volunteers were in the process of packing up all the books and materials for a new undetermined location. “I’m happy there was a settlement and
that everyone was satisfied,” McDonald said. “I would really miss story time with the kindergartners.” A side note on the rancorous proceedings during the past two months is the community spirit involved in the library. Spurred by a donation of $14,000 worth of shelving from the University of Colorado
at Colorado Springs, volunteers showed up to help assemble and stack the shelves. “It’s nice to see people helping out,” McDonald said. “We expect to be fully operational by Labor Day.” McDonald plans to serve both districts this year as a transition to retirement.
Death penalty lurks at edges of election Governor’s views may matter little to voters By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Death penalty politics resurfaced in the gubernatorial race last week on the heels of comments made by Gov. John Hickenlooper during a recent television interview. But political observers wonder just how much voters actually care about capital punishment in relation to other issues, and what impact, if any, the death penalty debate will have come November. Hickenlooper confirmed to KDVR-TV on Aug. 18 what many believe has been the case for a while — that he’s changed his mind over the years and is now against the death penalty. “There’s no deterrence to having capital punishment,” Hickenlooper said during the interview. The governor said he had been a death penalty supporter his entire life until factors, such as the high cost of putting some-

one to death, started to turn his mind around on the issue. “And, I don’t know about you, but when I get new facts, I change my opinion,” said Hickenlooper, who told voters four years ago that he was in favor of the death penalty. Hickenlooper has had to deal with questions about his views on capital punishment since last year, when he chose to grant a temporary reprieve for death row inmate Nathan Dunlap, who was convicted of murdering four people at an Aurora Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant in 1993. Republicans have attacked Hickenlooper for failing to see through Dunlap’s execution. The death penalty issue has been used by former Congressman Bob Beauprez, who is running against Hickenlooper this fall, as a way to call out the governor for his “failed leadership” on the issue. “If he truly does oppose the death penalty, he should have commuted Nathan Dunlap’s sentence instead of leaving the decision to the next governor,” Beauprez said through a press statement. “As Colorado’s next governor, I will see that justice is served.”

But will voters care about Nathan Dunlap and the death penalty come November? “When you look at voters, in particular, independents, and when you look at list of concerns they have, you’re not going to find the death penalty on that list,” said Norman Provizer, a political science professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver. “It’s a hot topic and the Beauprez campaign is trying to make an issue out of it, but I don’t think it’s a high priority issue.” John Straayer, a political science professor at Colorado State University, said “a lot

of people have been changing their mind on the death penalty” over the years. And Straayer wonders if Beauprez is simply trying to energize voters who are already inclined to vote for him. “It might be being done to the advantage of appealing to his own party,” he said. “But I just wonder whether they’re getting a lot of traction out of that beyond the base of their own party.” Provizer said voters care more about Colorado’s improved economy than issues like the death penalty. “If I were a candidate and I had a choice between being attacked on the death penalty or unemployment being down to around 5 percent, it wouldn’t be a question of what I would choose,” Provizer said. Still, a polarizing issue like this one could have on an impact on at least a small percentage of the electorate — perhaps enough to flip a tight election. “I think we all understand, in any close election, little things can make an enormous difference,” Provizer said. “I can say the death penalty question is not a major issue, but in a close election, it could make a difference.”

Eddie Stern, a spokesman for Hickenlooper’s campaign, said the governor “made a decision knowing it wouldn’t be a popular decision, but it is the right decision.” Stern also said it is important to remember that the governor granted a reprieve, not clemency for Dunlap. “At that time, he explained why he felt a temporary reprieve was more important than clemency,” Stern said.

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Colorado’s economic outlook is bright, as is indicated by two business reports that were released last week. The state’s unemployment rate ticked down slightly in July, and Colorado experienced its 33rd consecutive month of job gains. And, on the heels of those statistics, a business website ranked Colorado number one on its list of state economies. Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper greeted the economic news with tempered optimism. “While our economy continues to be recognized as the fastest-growing in the nation, we know there is still much work to be done,” the governor said through
an emailed statement. “We are focused on ensuring we foster a positive business climate — whether a start-up or Fortune 500 company — and retaining our talented workforce.” The unemployment numbers, which were released by the state Department of Labor and Employment, show that 3,500 non-farm jobs were added in July. That growth allowed the state’s unemployment rate to drop from 5.5 percent to 5.3 percent. That’s the lowest unemployment rate the state has seen since October 2008, just as the Great Recession was kicking in. Meanwhile, the website Business Insider ranked Colorado’s economy as the best in the nation. The influential business website used eight metrics to determine its rankings, with Colorado ranking in the top 10 in five of them. Economic continues on Page 5

“You have to pick start or finish because in a state like Colorado you can’t get between the cities during the race.” Mackay is so hardcore a race fan that he has even attended the famed Tour de France. “Some of the guys in this race have competed in the Tour de France,” he said. “They are like super-human. “I follow all the pro tours in person, or watch them on television if I can’t be there. There’s definitely a contingent of hard-core fans who follow this race. I was here in 2011 and made a trip out of that and I liked it enough to want to come back.” The USA Pro Cycling Challenge is billed as “America’s Tour de France.” “The Tour de France is a rolling block party,” Mackay said. “This isn’t quite at that level. People stand out there and drink wine and make a day of it in Europe. It’s a national holiday.” The Woodland Park stage might not have matched the media hype of the Tour de France, but some local bicycle racing fans got swept up in the electricity and excitement. “This is the biggest race in the United States,” said Teresa Weiss, a Woodland Park resident and huge racing fan. “The starts are always exciting, but if you really want to see the cyclists you get on a mountain. “The nice thing about Woodland (Park) is that (the riders) are doing two laps around town before they head to Breckenridge. If you are into racing this is definitely an event you want to see. We’re very fortunate to have this in our backyard.” By all accounts, Woodland Park’s stage was as good, if not better, than the Pro Challenge’s other stages. “This is the biggest race in America in terms of spectators,” said Paul Magnuson, who owns Team Telecycle in Woodland Park and attended the first five stages of the Pro Challenge. “It has mountains. It has flat stages for sprints. It has incredible scenery like the Tour de France, and great spectators. Those are the four things that make this a great race.” Magnuson believes some of today’s top American riders, like Tejay van Garderen, could become household names. “Maybe not like LeBron (James) or even Lance Armstrong, but five years ago this sport was dominated by European riders,” Magnuson said. No American cyclist has ever reached the royalty status that Armstrong did, winning the Tour de France seven times. The most talked about rider at this
Racers dealt with a colder start in Woodland Park and overcast skies. Photos by Rob Carrigan year’s Pro Challenge was van Garderen. The 26-year-old old won the 2013 Pro Challenge and has finished as high as fifth in the Tour de France in 2012 and 2014. “I love this race,” said van Garderen, a resident of Boulder, who drew the biggest cheers from the Woodland Park spectators. “Every year I’ve done the Pro Challenge, I’ve taken away something from it. I look forward to this race every year.” Colorado Springs hosted the Stage 4 circuit race on Aug. 21. Colorado Springs keeps reinventing itself as a host city. In 2011 it hosted a prologue; in 2012 it was a fast road stage finish for sprinters. After a ceremonial start at the world famous Broadmoor, the race headed into town and joined up with a 16-mile circuit that featured four times with climbs through Garden of the Gods, Mesa Rd. and the infamous Ridge Road, which hits grades of nearly 17 percent. Following Stage 4, there was a VIP reception and gala hosted at The Broadmoor, with van Garderen, Stage 1 winner Kiel Reijnen (USA) and America’s Tom Danielson, third in last year’s Pro Challenge. Also on hand at the gala were Germany’s Jens Voigt, who rides for Trek and has worn the Yellow Jersey twice at the Tour de France, and Italy’s Ivan Basso, two-time

Lake George Charter School still enrolling for the 2014-15 school year Open house attended by 200 By Sonja Oliver
Contributing writer The Lake George Charter School gymnasium was filled to capacity with at least 200 children, parents and staff anticipating the 2014-15 school year at an open house held on Aug. 18. School administrator Bill Fredenburg began the evening with a welcome and then turned the focus toward the children who recited the school pledge which emphasizes pride, dignity, courtesy and respect for each other, family, school and community. Fredenburg also introduced the 26 teachers, staff and paraprofessionals who will be a part of student’s daily lives for the next nine months. The school is still accepting applications for the 2014-15 school year for all grades K-6. Although the first day of the school year officially began on Aug. 19, the school is still accepting applications for new students. Lake George touts smaller class sizes, individualized student attention and highly competitive results on state assessment testing. In fact, according to Fredenburg, the school excelled in 11 out of the 15 TCAP tests in last year’s testing in reading, writing, and math subject area scores for third through seventh grades, ranking along with some of the top schools in the state.
“Over the last five years we’ve continued to improve our test results. And we beat our (TCAP) test scores from last year,” Fredenburg said. Other amenities include a four day week — Monday through Thursday from 7:55 a.m. until 4 p.m.; PE, Art and Music programs; free breakfast for all students with “great home-cooking” and a winter skiing and snowboarding program on Fridays during the ski season.
In other announcements at the open house:
The school’s Landshark Running Club will host a five-week cross-country program for students in grades K-5. The practices will be held on Mondays and Wednesdays beginning on Aug. 25 with a parent orientation meeting on Aug. 27 at 5 p.m. The meets will be held on Sept. 15, 22 and 29 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Shining Mountain Gold Course in Woodland Park. Boy Scout troop leader Joe Lanucha extended an invitation to boys in first through fifth grades to join the Cub Scouts. Enrollment night will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 26 at the Summit Elementary School cafeteria. A Youth Dental Day for children ages 1-18 will be held on Wednesday, Aug. 27 from 9:30 a.m. until 4 p.m. at Lake George Charter School. To make an appointment call 719-836-2169. For more information regarding enrollment for the 2014-15 school year and the school calendar, visit the website at lakegeorgechartersschool.org or call 719-7483911.

At its regularly scheduled meeting, the Board of El Paso County Commissioners approved a landmark Intergovernmental Agreement that sets the framework for the creation of a Regional Drainage Authority to address failing stormwater management and control facilities in the Fountain Creek Watershed.The board gave direction to staff to include in the agreement a final projects list submitted by participating jurisdictions. The board also gave “first reading” approval to possible ballot language that would set the stage for voters to decide if the proposed Pikes Peak Regional Drainage Authority is the best way to provide sustainable long term funding and regional planning and coordination of stormwater management.Participating jurisdictions in PPRDA would include the city of Colorado Springs, El Paso County, Fountain, Manitou and Green Mountain Falls and stormwater management would governed by a board of elected officials representing each
participating jurisdiction. The citizen-led Stormwater Task Force conducted a series of public forums and other types of citizen outreach for two years before asking the Board of County Commissioners to put the proposal on the November general election ballot. Commissioners’ approval of the IGA included a provision that final project lists be adopted by each participating jurisdiction and included for final approval by the BoCC.Commissioners noted that language of the IGA recognizes that project priorities may shift as storms and flood events dictate over the life of the agreement. The proposed stormwater ballot language including a project list is scheduled for a second reading at the BoCC meeting Sept. 2, thereby giving participating jurisdictions an opportunity for final review of their project lists. Regularly scheduled meetings of the Board of County Commissioners are held in the Commissioners’ Hearing Room at Centennial Hall, 200 S. Cascade Ave. in Colorado Springs, starting at 9 a.m.

Mayor Lorrie Worthey smiles after she and the board of trustees approved an intergovernmental agreement to create the Pikes Peak Regional Drainage Authority. The measure passed by a 5-2 vote Aug. 19.

Green Mountain Falls is in. In a 5-2 vote, the board of trustees approved an intergovernmental agreement with the cities of Colorado Springs, Fountain and Manitou Springs, as well as El Paso County, to create the Pikes Peak Regional Drainage Authority. However, it’s up to the voters in each entity to approve a ballot measure in November to fund the authority with fees based on impervious surfaces. For homeowners, the fee is expected to be $7.70 a month while entities such as public schools would pay up to $312.52 a month. “We don’t think that should cause much of an impact on anyone’s taxes,” said Dave Munger, co-chairman of the stormwater task force who made his third appearance before the board Aug. 19. Munger was replying to a concern raised by trustee/treasurer Michael Butts about the possibility of a tax increase. Butts subsequently voted no to being part of the authority. If approved, the authority would fund drainage projects along Fountain Creek. The majority of the proposed projects will be in El Paso County. “There certainly will be projects — you all made that pretty clear at the last meeting — that have to take place in other counties, most definitely in Teller County, in order to deal with the flood situation,” Munger said, to a question by trustee Chris Quinn. “The advantage of the IGA is that it creates a pretty powerful entity that can negotiate with anyone outside the authority for cooperation and action.” If the town is part of the authority, six projects in Green Mountain Falls would be on the list, among them channel improvements for Catamount and Fountain creeks in addition to work on culverts, said trustee Tyler Stevens. Mayor Lorrie Worthey voted to approve the IGA along with trustees Barbara Gardiner, Stevens, Don Ellis and Dave Cook. Quinn voted no along with Butts.

Taking care of business with a button “Computers are useless. They can only give you answers.” Pablo Picasso Years ago, you couldn’t talk to Merton Taylor on Monday afternoons. He would hole himself up, back at the check-in stand, working on an order for Amarillo Hardware’s truck coming in on Thursdays. Mostly, he would cuss the state of the nation, slur half the people in that nation, and then start in on the other half. But the biggest problem with the world at that time, according to him, was technology. Having experienced the turmoil he went through dealing with a microfiche reader, I can’t imagine what kind of cussing would have went on — if he had to deal with the Internet. Merton believed in technology. He just didn’t like to deal with it. Those were different days. The Post Office and the Bank were on opposing corners of the center block of Sixth Street, and business was still a faceto-face affair in our little town. Every day, at 11 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., the entire population would converge between the two landmarks and do that business. Though, Merton often sent a ‘red dog’ representative to conduct his. Which means, one of his Irish Setters took the bank bag down and dropped it off with a teller, (slobber and all) with someone following to take care of the paper work.
But, back to the technology. World War II was the last time any of this technology crap made sense, he said. And to prove it, he would have you mark every one of any of the 40,000 common retail hardware items in Taylor Hardware, via black or red grease pencil, with his own secret cost code, that took employees about seven years to learn how to read. That code had all kinds of blind alleys and blocks, repeaters and switches in it. It was similar to the one he used during the war, in the Philippines. When I first worked there, the Amarillo Hardware salesman, carrying two leatherbound, foot-thick, catalogs (one in each hand suspended by tooled leather handles) into the store once a month, to take care of “problems.” Seems like there was always a “problem” or two to resolve. The rest of the time, (weeks without a salesman) on Monday, Merton, after gathering up the seven or eight ‘Want Books’ off of counters throughout the store, creating
a list, then would painstakingly look up and transpose numbers out of the microfiche cards. Which was all well and good, as long as the ‘fiche bulb didn’t burn out. Or, the numbers matched up, or the quantities were acceptable, or the illustration correctly identified an item. All of whch, almost never happened. But at least, at the end of the day, all five of the red dogs, and grey one, or perhaps a black one, would lumber out the side door after 5:30 p.m., load up in the old International Scout, frailest to most agile by order, and head home at the end of the day. Ready to come back and do the same thing tomorrow. Still, it is sort of like that today, with the use of computers, the Internet, and all business taken care of with a button. Maybe we haven’t learned a thing in 40 years. It is in this environment that I’ve have heard the common discussion among writers, and customers, sources, and coworkers, etc... the common discussion that goes something like this. “You can’t talk to Rob Carrigan on Monday afternoons. He’ll cuss the state of the nation, slur half the people in that nation ... then start in on the other half. The biggest problem in the world today is technology. I have the answers. What we really need ... the questions.
The Branch Rickey name has serious ties to the Pikes Peak region The name Branch Rickey is synonymous with baseball. It is etched in the minds of generations of fans. And for good reason. The Rickey family has played a key role in baseball for more than 100 years. And Branch Rickey III is doing his part to carry on the family tradition. “It’s not always easy to carry a great baseball name,” said Fred Whitacre, former Colorado Springs Sky Sox general manager and close friend of Rickey’s. “He knows he has that legacy and he does it with such dignity and grace. Rickey III, 68, lived near the Broadmoor for years with his wife, Diane. The couple moved to the Austin, Texas, area a few years ago when the Pacific Coast League offices relocated to the Lone Star state. The PCL offices were located near the Penrose House on Mesa Ave., since 1997 prior to the move. On July 26 of this year, Rickey III returned to the Pikes Peak region when his long-time friend Dave Elmore was inducted into the PCL Hall of Fame during a ceremony at Security Service Field.
Rickey, who resembles his famous grandfather, smiled with delight as Elmore (the owner of the Sky Sox) was recognized and cheered on by those in attendance. Elmore owned the franchise going back to the days when the team was based in Hawaii and moved it here in 1988 with the help of Whitacre. It would be easy for Rickey III to rest on the laurels of his famous name. After all, his grandfather was one of the greatest innovators baseball has ever known, pioneering the farm system among other things. Rickey Sr. was also a leader in the civil rights movement. It was Rickey, Sr., who
broke Baseball’s color barrier when he signed Jackie Robinson to a professional contract with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1945. In April 1947, Robinson debuted with the Dodgers and went on to win National League Rookie of the Year honors. “I may not be able to do something about racism in every field, but I can sure do something about it in baseball,” Rickey, Sr., once said. Rickey Sr., - known as “Mahatma” - died in 1965 at the age of 83. He was enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1967. His son, Branch, Jr., passed away in 1961 at the age of 47. So it was up to Branch III to carry on the family tradition. “He’s been in the game so long, there’s not a lot he hasn’t seen,’ said Tony Ensor, president of the Colorado Springs Sky Sox about Branch III. “He has the ability to pull people together on an issue. “He knows everyone in the game, and he’s always keeping his fingers on the pulse about what’s going on in the league.” Rickey III has been involved with proSummers continues on Page 9

Compile your family’s health history Phew! Vacations are out of the way, the kids are back in school and the eldest left for college last week. Finally, you have some time for yourself! Hold on, I have a project for you. I’d like you compile your family’s health history, which may be one of the most important things you do not only for your health but for the health of your entire family. You know that you got your red hair from your grandmother, your prominent nose from your father and green eyes from your mother but physical traits are not the only things you may have inherited from your family. The propensity for many medical conditions … like heart disease, breast cancer, diabetes, alcoholism and Alzheimer’s … may have also been passed along as well. A family medical history is a record of important medical information about your relatives, including illnesses and diseases. It can be a powerful tool in helping your doctor be more precise in evaluating
your risk of various disease processes. Knowing your medical pedigree can lead you to recommended treatments or changes in diet and lifestyle habits to reduce the risk of a disease. It may also help determine diagnostic tests that need to be ordered, the type and frequency of screening tests and can aid in identifying a condition that might not otherwise be considered. And, it can help you assess the risk of passing diseases on to your children. Sold on the idea? Start by making a list of relatives to speak with. Parents, full sisters and broth-
ers along with grandparents are the most important people for you to interview. It’s also wise to collect information from blood-related aunts, uncles, nephews, nieces, first cousins and half-brothers and sisters. The more people you can talk to the better because disease patterns become more obvious in larger group samplings. Here are some suggestions from the Mayo Clinic on how to approach your relatives. Share your purpose. Explain that you are creating a record that the entire family can share with their doctor. Provide several ways to answer questions. Some relatives will be fine with sharing health information face-to-face, while others may prefer answering your questions by phone, mail or email. Word questions carefully. Keep your questions short and to the point. Be a good listener. As your relatives talk about their health problems, listen without judgment or comment.
Respect privacy and confidentially. Some may not want to share any health information with you, while others may want this information reveled only to you. The U.S. Surgeon General, in an effort to focus attention on the importance of family health history, launched a national public campaign called the “Surgeon General’s Family History Initiative,” which is designed to encourage all Americans to learn more about their family’s health history. To get started on your family’s health portrait, log on to http://www.hhs.gov/ familyhistory/. While pondering whether to act on this project or not, keep this old fitness industry mantra in mind … “Genetics loads the gun, environment pulls the trigger.” Cord Prettyman is a certified Master Personal Trainer and the owner of Absolute Workout Fitness and Post-Re-hab Studio in Woodland Park. He can be reached at 687-7437 or by email at cordprettyman@ msn.com.
Tourists caught in a Pikes Peak snow drift I ran across this article in a late July 1926 newspaper. I have heard that the winter of 192526 was a bad one on the mountain. The railroad and the highway opened late that spring. I guess that in July there were still snow problems. Battling for their lives in an 8-foot snowdrift while most of the United States sweltered, Morris Cohen and William Snyder, both of Chicago, narrowly escaped death on top of Pikes Peak at noon on a Tuesday and were rescued only when passengers in a passing motor bus heard their feeble cries for help. Although suffering from exposure, both men recovered. The two men started to drive to the top of Pikes Peak Tuesday morning, the

fessional baseball since the age of 17 in 1963, when he became Business Manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates’ rookie league affiliate in the Appalachian League at Kingsport, Tennessee. He continued to work with Pirates’ rookie teams during the summers while pursuing his college degree at Ohio Wesleyan University - the same school his father and grandfather attended. He was a four-year letterman on the soccer team and also excelled in intramural wrestling, winning four first-place medals during his time there. Following graduation with a degree in philosophy, he served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Venezuela from 1967-69, then as a college campus recruiter for the Peace Corps, and subsequently as a U.S. regional recruitment director in 1971. He returned to baseball in 1972, working in player development with the Kansas City Royals and Cincinnati Reds. Rickey III took over as president of the PCL when the American Association was disbanded during realignment by the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues from three Triple-A leagues to two. One of the most intelligent and articulate stewards of the game, Rickey III has championed making baseball more family-friendly, has brought in owners such as Hall of Famer Nolan Ryan, and has pushed to get facilities updated in nearly every market. The most recent PCL market is in El Paso, Texas. “He spends a lot of time and a lot of
19th and reached Mile Post 14, above timberline and a short distance below the summit, when they stopped to investigate a snow drift. They intended to take photographs of the drift — they said — to show their friends in Chicago. The drift, about 500 feet long and very deep, attracted their attention.
effort working behind the scenes,” said Mike Hobson, the Sky Sox director of media relations. “The growth of this league is a direct reflection of Branch.” Rickey III is a tireless worker. During the first two weeks of most seasons, he visits stadiums in about half of the PCL’s 16 cities. “My wife is not a baseball fan to the radical degree that the rest of my family is,” Rickey said. But Diane is a huge Robert Redford fan. Back in 2004, Rickey III had dinner at Redford’s home in Los Angeles as the two talked details of a movie that involved the famed actor possibly portraying Ricky, Sr. Diane was not part of the meeting. The movie “42” was eventually made, but it starred Harrison Ford as the Rickey Sr. Rickey III keeps in close contact with Jackie Robinson’s widow, Rachel. They have known each other for more than 40 years and have spoken together at events around the country. “I refer to Rachel as American royalty,” Rickey III said. “She’s my first candidate. She has a spirit of charity that rivals anyone.” Rickey III has no plans of slowing down. Under his watch, the league continues to see tremendous growth. He has also stabilized the league by putting new teams in strong markets like Reno, Sacramento, Fresno, Albuquerque and Round Rock, Texas. “Baseball is taking me in a lot of very good directions,” Rickey III said. “I have had the wonderful good fortune to be exposed to some very creative and farsighted people. I had that tradition passed along to me on a different front.”

Believing that it would hold his weight, Cohen walked out on it to pose for a photograph. The next instant he sank into 8 feet of snow! Snyder at first laughed at Cohen’s efforts to free himself, but soon recognized the panic. He went up on the drift to assist his companion, but he slipped and plunged into the drift with Cohen. For several minutes they battled the snowdrift, striving to make their way out, but found the fighting futile. In their work, they found a frozen chunk of snow that they could stand on, getting away from the softer snow. They found themselves nearly to the surface. They then started calling for help whenever they could hear an automobile passing. Both were nearly exhaust-
ed when passengers on a passing tour bus from the Auto Highway heard their feeble cries. Harry Cain, the bus driver, stopped and with several passengers rushed to their rescue. In a few minutes, both were released and taken to the bus. The pair were chilled and suffering from their exposure. The men were placed on a bus coming down from the summit and taken to a Colorado Springs hospital. After a night’s rest they had regained their strength and announced that they were returning to Chicago as soon as possible, where snowdrifts in July are not as dangerous. I wonder how long their automobile sat up by the road.

Contributing writer Over the weekend of Aug. 15-17, thousands of visitors and spectators came to the annual Lake George Extravaganza sponsored by the Lake George Community Association. There was a wide and varied choice of venues offering a diverse assortment of entertainment. Beginning with the annual Lake George Gem and
Mineral Show, visitors could ogle, covet and/or purchase rocks, gems and jewelry at the show located on U.S. Highway 24 next to the Lake George Post Office. Lake George Gem and Mineral Club member and event coordinator Dan Alfrey said that more than 3,000 visitors attended the show which featured 30 vendors. Rockhounds traveled to Lake George from throughout the state to view offerings of minerals, fossils, and silver and copper jewelry from locations throughout the world. In addition, there were specimens of amazonite, smoky quartz, aquamarine and topaz from local mines sold by local dealers. Lake George Gem and Mineral Club members were on hand to give expert information and free rocks to children who attended the show. Alfrey said that proceeds are used to for a scholarship

fund to support a high-school graduate with college aspirations in the study of earth sciences, and to sponsor a summer intern at the Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument. Across the street at the Lake George Community Park, the antique tractor pull, library used book sale, flea market and craft sale were also well attended, according to organizer Kim Plutt. Plutt said that as many as 5,000 books had been donated for the used book sale, raising almost $400 to benefit local library programs specific to the Lake George Branch of the Park County Library. The Lake George Fire Protection District also participated in the extravaganza with its annual spaghetti supper, a fundraiser for the fire department. The department uses the contributions raised from the event for “extras” such as fire safety awareness programs for area schoolchildren. 2014 was the 18th year for the Stock Antique Tractor Pull sponsored by the Arkansas Valley Flywheelers. About 40 antique tractors in different weight classes and ages performed a total of 172 “pulls,” according to co-organizer Ed Adams. There are eight different classes with two different hitch heights for tractors to pull a weighted sled. Adams noted that sometimes the same tractor may pull in different classes. “We had a great crowd of spectators as we usually do,” Adams said. Adams said that hundreds of spectators viewed the competition, filling the grandstand to capacity. There were tractors dating from as early as 1917 up to 1963 with many hand-cranked start-ups that participated in the pull and with many more on display with stationary engines running. Regarding the flea market and craft sale, Adams noted that a local wood craftsman had said he did very well in sales. “One fellow brought up a whole bunch of his furniture and just about sold out,” Adams said. Plutt said that participating food vendors were also happy with their sales.

n a place where scenic beauty, architectural significance and fiercely-independent citizens define the city of Victor, the annual plein air show is a natural attraction. However, it took a group of plucky volunteers to convince artists from around the nation to come and paint outside in the high mountains of Teller County. Fifteen years later, Victor Celebrates the Arts has put the city on the tourist map with more than 50 artists arriving every year to find their muse in the outdoors. A nonprofit organization, the VCTA has infused economic energy and artistic vibrancy into the city. With an array of special events, there is always something to see throughout the three-day Labor Day weekend. The Brush Rush, on Aug. 31, is a three-hour competition that combines artistry with speed. The Quick Draw on Sept. 1 brings the audience into the action. All of the works are for sale and on display at the Elks Club. For this year’s advertising campaign, VCTA spotlights Cliff Austin’s oil, “Caterpillar Rain,” which won the Poster and Quick Draw awards last year. A multiple-award winner in contests around the region, Austin pays tribute to the one in Victor. “The subject is light and contrast. The fascination is in the way light pours, splashes, and wraps around everything we see and contrasts the everyday with the extraordinary,” he writes in an email. Recently, VCTA added another division “Youth Celebrates the Arts,” for students in Cripple Creek and Victor. A week before the show, which is run entirely by volunteers, artists can be found at various locations around the city. The public event begins Aug. 30 and runs through Labor Day. For information, check victorcelebratesthearts.org.

Some aspens already turning gold due to cooler, wetter weather patterns Precipitation surges, temperatures down By Sonja Oliver
Contributing writer Colorado’s cooler and wetter summer is showing its effect on aspen trees at higher elevations in the Teller and Park County region of the Colorado Rocky Mountains. As early as Aug. 1, the edges of green aspen leaves began turning golden as observed in some groves dotted along U.S. Highway 24, outside of Divide at Florissant Canyon and west toward Lake George. Morning temperatures have fallen into the low 40s as recorded at the Wilkerson Pass weather station located 10 miles west of Lake George. According to the Weather Underground website, wunderground. com, on Aug. 1, the Wilkerson Pass observation station recorded a high of 46 degrees F and a low of 37 F. The 2013 temperature data for that particular August day last year recorded a high of 57 degrees F and a low of 57F. Meteorologists say these cold temperatures are cause leaves of deciduous trees to change colors earlier than normal. The Weather Underground record also notes that this year, from Aug. 1 to Aug. 17, there were 13 of 17 days in which there was area thunderstorm activity. During that same time period in 2013, there was only one day in which there was rain. Fairplay-based Pike National Forest Service Visitor Information Services Assistant Nick DiGiacco said on Aug. 19 that the combination of high daytime temperatures and low nighttime temperatures speed up the process of fall foliage turning colors, as well as contributing to the ripening of garden and farm produce. DiGiacco said that although an ailing aspen under distress will begin to change colors early, the cooler weather plays a factor in an early fall. “I think overall the summer has been cooler. I’ve seen frost a few times,” DiGiacco observed, adding that the peak season for the brilliant, golden aspen foliage is expected to take place during the second and third weeks of September.
Aspen groves along U.S. Highway 24 at Florissant Canyon located between Divide and Florissant are at the beginning stages of turning gold.
Weather trends
According to the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration’s State of the Climate report for July, 2014 “the average temperature for the contiguous U.S. during July was 73.3 degrees Fahrenheit — (three tenths of one degree) below the 20th century average, ranking near the middle of the 120year period of record. This was the coolest July for the Lower-48 since 2009.” The report states that areas in Colorado were divided this month with cooler temperatures dominating the Central Rockies as well as higher precipitation which has alleviated the drought and potential fire danger. The report also states that drought conditions in Colorado have improved in the east and degraded slightly in the west. And although many fires burned throughout the western states in July with 1,651,320 acres (668,000 hectares) having burned nationwide yearto-date, the report states “this is the lowest acreage in the last 10 years and 39 percent of the 10-year average.” The NOAA report states that the North American Monsoon, which began on schedule during the first week of July, has brought widespread precipitation to the area with near to above normal precipitation. For Teller County, this has resulted in heavy rains creating flash-flooding incidents that have caused road washouts and pass

closures thus impacting travel such as has been experienced numerous times along U.S. Highway 24 at Ute Pass. Most recently on Highway 24 at Florissant Canyon, the pass between Divide and Florissant, CDOT had to deploy road graders in order to clear debris resulting from a thunderstorm on the afternoon of Aug. 1. The Teller County Road and Bridge department had been called out that day to assist Colorado Department of Transportation CDOT to grade and clear a patch of washed out road at Wilson Lakes Drive. “We’ve seen water coming out from places that we’ve never seen before. But the roads have held up fairly well,” Teller County Road and Bridge Supervisor Brad Shaw said. Shaw also said that a 15-year Florissant resident reported that over one inch of rain fell within 15 minutes during that storm. For the rest of the summer, the NOAA forecast for the Southwest Region, which includes the Colorado Rockies, predicts that “southerly, moist winds associated with the seasonal monsoon will increase the chances of precipitation during the remainder of the summer.”
Old Farmers Almanac forecast The Old Farmers Almanac, a 223-year-old publication of climate predictions and folklore, predicts that the 2014-15 winter will be colder and next summer hotter.
Leaves of local aspen trees have already begun turning golden as observed on Aug. 20 at Florissant Canyon located on U.S. Highway 24 between Divide and Florissant. Photos by Sonja Oliver The most recent almanac, published on Aug. 20, predicts a “supercold” winter in two-thirds of the country. However, for the Colorado Rockies, which are located in the almanac’s “Intermountain Region,” the long-range forecast summary states: “Winter temperatures will be above normal, with below-normal snowfall and with precipitation above normal north, below south. The coldest periods will be late December and mid- to late February north, and mid-December south. The snowiest period in northern and central sections will be in early December; mid-February and early to mid-March in the south. “April and May will be slightly drier than normal, with near-normal temperatures. “Summer will be hotter than normal, with above-normal rainfall. The hottest periods will be in mid- and late June, early July, and mid- to late July. “September and October in 2015 will be cooler than normal, with pre-

its forecast on a formula which has proven itself to be accurate 80 percent of the time.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor: When Mike Ensminger first ran for sheriff, we all had a gut feeling that he was the right man, at the right time with the right reasons for becoming our Sheriff. The people agreed with us and we won by a 3 to 1 margin. We now have a proven record of achievement to vindicate our votes. I like Mike personally. I like his commitment to Christ, our community, and our country. Most of all I like the fact that he made enemies in our State Legislature when he stood up for our Second Amendment rights. Mike Ensminger is the right man for this job and he serves with dignity, honor and respect. Keith McKim, Florissant Dear Editor: I had to rub my eyes when I read where newly-chosen Mayor Neil Levy said not only does he support a recreational mari-
juana ballot initiative, he favors the drug itself (Pikes Peak Courier, Aug. 20). Does he think the increased sales tax revenue is worth the cost in duller minds among our youth? Surely he knows marijuana has shown up in grade schools in cities where the drug has been legalized. Maybe the mayor should read the medical reports regarding adolescents smoking marijuana. I like Neil personally, but I realize now his values are not my values. I would not want my children going to school in a town where the mayor is a proponent of recreational marijuana. Levy’s pro-business attitude is commendable, but this particular position of his does not bode well for the school district, town or state.

since 1979. Currently, there is a study by the Matrix Group of the upper Fountain Creek Flood Restoration Plan. While there is a lot of coverage of water from Colorado Springs to Woodland Park, the real problem starts at Walmart in Woodland Park. Look at the city-limits boundary starting at U.S. 24. You have developments from the stop light at Bluebird Hill, down and through Woodland Park, Paradise Estates, Morning Sun and Sunny Glen to Western convenience. You also have businesses and schools. They have put in sidewalks, curbs and blacktop, which is fine; however, the water has nowhere to go, meaning it can’t soak into the ground, so it just runs off racing downhill. Grey Horse subdivision has put in retention/detention ponds but they are not maintained. Some of the businesses have put in retention ponds, which is good because it slows the water down but
most businesses do not unless they have recently been built. Walmart’s retaining wall is undercutting because of all this water at County Road 21 by the bridge. That bridge used to have a lot of clearance but now it is full of sand, causing a lot of trouble downstream. This is disastrous for homes in Green Mountain Falls, Chipita Park and Cascade. Along with the water come uprooted trees, tires, cement discards, sand, etc, which clog the bridges and culverts. The clogging destroys the bridges and takes them out. Again, his affects the homes in the surrounding areas. This needs to be addressed as it destroys the property values of those whom it directly affects, which, in turn, will affect the taxes and income coming into Teller County Sincerely,Sally Clark, Crystola Canyon

More than 75 people enjoyed a reception at the Swiss Chalet to be among the first to see a film clip of “Voices of Grief,” co-produced by Kathy Sparnins of Woodland Park. Courtesy photos
Docmentary produced in Woodland Park By Pat Hill phill@colorado communitymedia.com More than 75 people were among the first in the nation to see a sneak preview of the documentary film “Voices of Grief” Aug 17 at the Swiss Chalet in Woodland Park. A $300,000 project co-produced by Kathy Sparnins of Woodland Park, the film includes interviews of people who have suffered the loss of a loved one. The voices reflect pathways of grief from overwhelming sadness to acceptance and, for those who take the time to grieve, a profound sense of peace. For the mother of a 2 year-old boy, who died of leukemia, the final moments remain a gift. “He put his hand on my cheek, looked me in the eye and kissed me,” she said. “I just knew we would always be connected.” Sparnins talked about the genesis of the film which is nearly complete. “Unconsciously, I think the seed was planted for this project in 1974 when I lost my 15-year-old sister in a car accident,” she said. Sparnins was 28 at the time; the death was her first major loss. “It was pretty devastating and I think my life evolved — leading me to try to understand how to take care of a broken heart,” she said. Today Sparnins leads grief groups in Colorado Springs as well as in Woodland Park for Prospect
Home Care & Hospice. “Grief is not a natural part of life — I saw people becoming shamed for feeling sad,” she said. “They began wondering if something was wrong with them. Nothing feels more out-ofcontrol than grief. Our culture is uncomfortable with grief, with death.” The voices express fear of loving again while others share the horror of violence that took their sons or relatives, by car accident, a bullet, or suicide, for instance. Most of the voices are introspective. “When mom died I knew I never would become who I could have been,” said Barbara Swaby, professor of education at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs. In addition to the bereaved, the film includes professionals such as Rabbi Harold Kushner and Alan Wolfelt, M.D., who talk the negative effects of setting time limits on grieving. After a premier showing in the fall of 2015, the film will be available free to all hospices nationwide. “Voices of Grief” is a nonprofit organization under the umbrella of the Pikes Peak Community Foundation. To date, the film faces a funding gap of $80,000. Sparnins, along with Paula Levy, co-owner of the Swiss Chalet, and Mary Barrowman, chief executive officer and president of Prospect, hosted the fundraising reception. Sparnins co-produced the film with Deborah Collins.

Panthers looking to show their grit on the gridiron Woodland Park football team was 5-5 in 2013 By Danny Summers
dsummers @coloradocommunitymedia.com
Joe Roskam has been coaching football long enough to know that the one constant is change. “You have to take what you’ve got and work with that group to the best of their abilities,” Roskam said. “I think we have a pretty good group of players this season.” songs While many members of the Panthers’ ocal gridiron gang are different from year, some key members return. They include junior quarterback Matt Cox and senior poets running back Dylan Schaller-Ward. from Cox started has already started 15 the games in his young career, including five mbers as a freshman. Last year he threw for 786 yards (48 completions in 125 attempts)
with seven touchdowns and 11 interceptions. He also rushed for a team-high 719 yards and seven touchdowns. “Last year I had a lot of confidence issues and this year I am just more confident,” Cox said. “My interceptions basically came because I wasn’t confident with my throws. A lot of it was not knowing what my reads were and not being confident what my reads were. “This year I know what I’m supposed to be seeing, I’m supposed to be looking at, and I know what I’m doing.” Schaller-Ward was third on the team in rushing with 581 yards and five touchdowns. Two of the main receivers this season are seniors Josh Woods and Treivonne Cobb. “Cecil has a lot of receivers he can choose from,” Woods said. “That will help him out a lot and make us more dangerous.” Cobb played for Mesa Ridge a year ago and will also see time at running back
this season. The Panthers were 5-5 in 2013, 1-3 in the Class 3A South Central League. Woodland Park suffered through an injury-riddled 2012 campaign when it went 3-7. The new Southern Conference has been slightly revamped this season and includes Discovery Canyon, Lewis-Palmer, Mitchell, Harrison and Canon City. “These last two years we’ve been lifting three times a week so that we can cut down on injuries,” said Schaller-Ward, who will also start at linebacker for the Panthers. “If we can work as one unit this season we will definitely be up there fighting in the playoffs come Thanksgiving.” If Schaller-Ward’s prediction comes to fruition, that means Woodland Park will advance to the state championship game in late November. Woodland Park senior center/nose guard Hunter Wilson said he likes what he’s seeing out of the line.
“We have a lot more depth this year,” he said. “That will definitely help. We just have to gel.” Senior lineman Joel Woolley agrees: “We have quite a few juniors we can count on and some seniors we can lean on for experience, so we’re starting to get down and dirty as a team.” The Panthers will run an option spread offense in an attempt to confuse the defense. “We want to spread the defense out and then punch them in the mouth,” Schaller-Ward said. “If teams put nine players in the box (on defense) we will throw the ball. If they spread out we will start running the ball up the middle.” Woodland Park opens its season Aug. 29 at Rampart in a 7 p.m. start at District 20 Stadium. Rampart’s head coach is Rob Royer, who was Woodland Park’s offensive coordinator in 2013. Roskam will run Woodland Park’s offense this season.

A new era begins in Woodland Park boys’ soccer Panthers have a new coach and a lot of new faces By Danny Summers dsummers@coloradocommunitymedia. com It is not yet known just how much of an impact the new atmosphere surrounding the Woodland Park High School boys’ soccer team will have in terms of wins and losses this season.. But at least optimism is running high.. “There’s a lot more fire this year,” said junior midfielder Cody Stroup, one of three captains for the Panthers. “We need to be more physical this year and not afraid to attack and mix it up a little

bit.” Woodland Park was 4-9-1 overall last season, 1-5 in the Metro League. But the league grew to eight teams over the summer with the addition of traditional 3A state power The Classical Academy (state runner-ups in 2013) and Canon City, which had been playing in a league primarily made up of a Pueblo schools. “Our goal is to get back to at least .500 and get into the playoffs,” said first-year coach Noel Sawyer, who also a member of the Woodland Park City Council. “Having TCA and Canon City in the league will make us a better team. “If we do all the little things right then we will have to become a better team.” Sawyer is well aware that the season is a game-by-game process, but he is a big picture guy and expects his club to im-
prove tremendously from its first game on Aug, 28 at Salida to its final regular season game in mid October. “These kids have the ability and the talent to be a winning team,” Sawyer said. “We’re going to scrimmage every practice like we’re going to play and we’re going to play with that same intensity every day.” Junior forward Aurelio Castro is expected to provide the bulk of the goal scoring this season. He had three goals in nine games last season, which ranked second on the team. “Aurelio will be our goal scorer, for sure” said a confident Sawyer. Sawyer also sees big things from freshman forward Hunter Herman. “I think we definitely should be thinking about the playoffs,” said senior forward and captain Anthony Woods. “Our

goal is to win a state championship, but we can’t do that until we have a winning record and make the playoffs. From there anything is possible.” Sawyer added that Woods is among the best dribblers on the team. Manning the goal this season is senior Sam Hopfe. The 6-foot-3 Hopfe also runs cross country, but he has worked out a schedule that will allow him to play both sports. I heard they needed a goalie and it interested me,” Hopfe said. “I wouldn’t have tried to do both sports, but the timing of the practices seems to work out so far.” Hopfe also is a starting forward on the school’s basketball team, runs track and is in the mix to be the school’s valedictorian.

The Woodland Park volleyball team will have a mix of returning starters and new faces this season. Here are some of the players who figure to play prominent roles: Front row (from left Kaitlyn Smith and Jenny Lau. Back row (from left to right): Katie Stunkard, Maureen Cummings and Kelsey Arseneau. Photo by Danny Summers
New look to Woodland Park volleyball team Panthers have just two returning starters By Danny Summers dsummers@coloradocommunitymedia. com With only two starters returning, the face of the Woodland Park High School volleyball team is much different from previous seasons. “I think our strength will be defense,” said long-time Panthers coach Stacy Roshek. “These girls love to win and they hate to lose. It’s an interesting group. A fun group.”
Senior Maureen Cummings returns as a starting middle blocker. Junior right side hitter Sierra Wilson (34 kills in 2013) is the only other player who saw significant time last fall. “Maureen is my strongest hitter right now,” Roshek said. “She swings very fast.” The Panthers were 9-13 last fall, 5-4 in the Metro League. It’s been more than 20 years since a Woodland Park team has won a district or regional title. “I would say that this team is a lot scrappier than teams we’ve had in the past,” said Cummings, who was second on the team in kills last season with 98. “It’s a good attribute and I hope it plays out this season.” The Panthers will run a 6-2 offense,
meaning the setter duties will be shared by senior Kelsey Arseneau and junior Jenny Lau. “We’re really good at working together and as a team,” Arseneau said. “If we don’t play as a team we’re not going to be successful at all, and we’re really good at being unified.” Lau said it is up to her and Arseneau to take control on the court. “It’s kind of the job as the setter to fix things when they get screwed up,” Lau said. “It’s a team sport so everyone has to work together.” Other girls who should figure prominently into the mix are junior middle blocker Alex Ryan, senior libero/defensive specialists Kaitlyn Smith and Katie
Stunkard, junior libero/defensive specialist Caitlan Thorne and junior outside hitters Heather McDonald and Michelle Cruse. The Panthers opened their season Aug. 26 against Buena Vista at Woodland Park. Their first Metro League game is Sept. 11 at Harrison. New to the Metro League this season is The Classical Academy (moving up from 3A) and Canon City, which is moving out a league that was made up primarily of Pueblo schools. “This is the year that we can possibly win league because the league is in our favor this year,” Cummings said.
Panthers’ softball team looking for fourth consecutive trip to postseason Woodland Park has a tough non-league schedule By Danny Summers
dsummers@coloradocommunitymedia. com In his first three seasons as head coach of the Woodland Park High School softball team, Dale Huntington’s squads have a combined 44-19 record. The Panthers have advanced to the post season in each of those seasons as well, but are 0-6 in six playoff games. “We have to figure out a way to get over that hurdle,” Huntington said. “We have to figure out a way to get us better competition so we’re better prepared for the playoffs.” The Panthers were 16-3 during the regular season in 2013 and undefeated in the Class 4A Metro League. They earned the right to host a regional tournament, but they were actually seeded No. 20 among 32 teams in the state. They lost both games at Four Diamond Sports Complex in Colorado Springs. “We’ve scheduled a much harder nonleague schedule this season to better prepare us for the playoffs,” Huntington said. Huntington also hired a former member of the Team USA softball team to help his club work on fundamentals, conditioning and skills. Teri Goldberg, a Woodland Park resident and alternate on 2004 Athens Summers Olympics squad, worked with the Panthers a couple of days each week. “It was huge for us to have Teri around,” Huntington said. “I’m also getting taught as a coach.
“She’s not easy, but the girls love her.” Huntington added that Goldberg has committed to work with the team throughout the season. The Panthers return several starters, including all-league infielder Lexie Comer. The senior will be counted upon to be Woodland Park’s No. 1 pitcher this season. “Lexie had a breakout season last year and we expect her to be even more of a force for us this season,” Huntington said. Comer’s 7 homers were second on the team in 2013 and her 36 RBI’s led the squad. She also posted a healthy .627 batting average to go along with five triples and five doubles. Other returning starters are seniors Brenna Peters (first base/outfield, .338), Jeanette Worscheck (outfield) and Chrissy Cunningham (P, OF, .352). Junior Savanna Simpson should be the main catcher, but she is nursing a sore knee in the early going, so Huntington is having to shift some people around. Junior Hayley Corbiere is expected to see plenty of action at first base, while junior Gabby Talbot will be at shortstop. Other key players include sophomore second baseman Jayllan Krause and freshman third baseman Celeste Cervantes. “Our No. 1 goal this season is to take care of the conference championship,” Huntington said. “These girls we have this year have a special bonding.” The Panthers opened their season Aug. 19 with a 10-0 loss at Valor Christian. Worscheck had the only hit for Woodland Park. The Panthers will again play their home games and practice at Woodland Park Middle School.

Pioneers’ football team ready get after it again Cripple Creek-Victor football team is comprised of just 14 players By Danny Summers dsummers@coloradocommunitymedia.com Playing at an elevation of nearly 9,500 feet, the Cripple Creek-Victor High School football team tries to use its unique situation to its advantage. According to Pioneers head coach Jim Bertrand, there is 35 percent less oxygen in Cripple Creek than down the hill in Colorado Springs. Bertrand should know. He has coached in the Pikes Peak region for more than 25 years (he was at Woodland Park for a stint) and also works as a ranger on Pikes Peak. The 68-year old coach is back for another stint with the Pioneers after a one-year hiatus that was not of his choosing. “I just want the players to give me all they can give me,”

said Bertrand, who also serves as CC-V’s athletic director among his other duties. “If that’s 50 percent, then that’s what it is. “You can’t get any more out of them than they can put out there.” The Pioneers opened their season Aug. 23 at home against Sierra Grande, but results of that game were not available at press time. The Pioneers’ roster consists of just 14 players. That is enough to get by at the 8-man level, where they are playing for a third consecutive season. But if they are hit with a rash of injuries or player ineligibility, things could get a little dicey for Bertrand and his crew. “One of the things that will help is that I have two assistant coaches this season,” said Bertrand, who is working with Mike Eivins and Paul McGinn in an effort to get the Pioneers’ program get back on track. “We’re kind of playing it by committee.” The Pioneers have lost 24 consecutive games on the field (the last 15 at the 8-man level) dating to the start of the 2011 season. They won one game by forfeit in 2011 when Limon was found to have used an ineligible player. CC-V’s last win on the field was Oct. 30, 2010 (20-6 over Ellicott). It was the Pioneer’s only win during a 1-9 campaign. “We want to set a pace that we can start to handle,” Bertrand said. “We want to make sure we lay a base and work toward the future.” Among the key returning players for CC-V are senior Cody Rice and sophomore Conner Brown. Brown will be in the backfield along with sophomores Stephen Cano and Mason Berger. The Pioneers will run the single wing offense this season. That means that any number of people could take the snap. Teams usually run 90 percent out of the single wing, but there are moments when the ball is passed. “The ball will be distributed around,” Bertrand said. “We have to have good blocking up front if we’re going to move the ball. We’ll go with a balanced line at times and unbalanced line, depending on that the defense gives us and

The Pioneers played their first game Aug. 23 against Sierra Grande. Photo by Danny Summers what we see as the other team’s weakness.” Among the key lineman on offense for the Pioneers will be Rice, senior Tyler Regester and junior David Wuellner. Of course, most of the starters will play both ways, meaning they will rarely leave the field. “We have four freshmen and five sophomores out this season,” Bertrand said. “They will be thrown into the fire pretty quickly.” CC-V’s homecoming game is Oct. 11 vs. Swink in a 1 p.m. start at Dial Field. The Pioneers play in the A-8 Southern League.

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF AUG 25, 2014
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Despite your Aries penchant for wanting to tackle a problem head-on, you might want to take a little more time to see how a current situation develops. It could surprise you. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) TTaking on the role of peacemaker in a disruptive environment is a challenge. But you can do it. Just continue to have the same faith in yourself that so many others have in you. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Although your work schedule keeps you busy, you should make time to start preparing for that important upcoming family event you’ll want to celebrate in a special way.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Home is where the Moon Child wants to be early in the week. But by week’s end, a chance to travel raises her or his excitement level, and that of the lucky person who gets to go along. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Be careful not to be a copycat when dealing with someone who uses unfair or even unkind methods to reach a goal. As always, do the right thing the right way, and you’ll win in the end. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) An offer could have many good things attached to it that are not apparent at first glance, including a chance to move into another career area. You might want to check out its possibilities. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) With responsibilities surging both in the workplace and in the home, it’s important to prioritize how you deal with them. Be patient. Pressures will begin to ease starting early next week. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) A positive reaction to a suggestion could indicate that you’re on track for getting your message to the right people. Devote the weekend to catching up with the special people in your life. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) A new attitude from those in charge could make things difficult for you unless you can accept the changes without feeling as if you’re being pressured into doing so. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Family matters once again dominate much of the week. But don’t neglect your workplace duties while you deal with them. An offer to help could come from a surprising source. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) A difficult workplace situation begins to ease, but there still are matters that need to be dealt with before it’s fully resolved. There’s also a more positive turn in domestic relationships. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Don’t let yourself be rushed into making a decision about an intriguing financial arrangement. Asking questions and checking it out now could pay off in a big way later on.

GMO labeling measure heading for fall ballot Similar measure failed after fight in California By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com A backer of a ballot measure that would require labels on foods that are genetically modified said his effort is about allowing Coloradans to “make informed decisions about what we are feeding our families.” But opponents fear that Proposition 105 is unnecessary and would result in confusion and higher food costs. The Secretary of State’s Office announced on Aug. 20 that the initiative backers had collected the necessary number of valid signatures to become one of only four measures to make the November ballot this year. The food is born from genetically modified organisms, or GMOs. GMO-based foods have been sold commercially since the mid-1990s are found in the vast majority of common crop foods, such as soybeans, corn and canola. The scientific consensus is that foods that contain GMOs are currently not harmful to the public’s health or the environment. But that hasn’t curbed a GMO-labeling movement that has resulted in similar ballot measures and several legislative efforts around the country. “I think there’s momentum,” said Larry Cooper of Arvada. Cooper is behind the Colorado Right to Know campaign and was responsible for putting the measure on the ballot. “People in Colorado really enjoy a healthy lifestyle and that’s why we work here,” he said. “But, really, what’s going on is we are choosing our food blindly.” Some major chains have already been moving toward Cooper’s side on this issue. Whole Foods grocery stores are in the process of labeling all foods that contain GMOs. And foods that are used at Colorado-based Chipotle Mexican Grill restaurants contain no GMOs. But Cooper knows he has a fight on his hands this fall. The packaged food industry has already been pushing back against GMO labeling efforts in other states, including California, where a similar ballot measure failed two years ago. Opponent’s of Cooper’s effort insist they have science on their side. They point to independent studies that have not indicated any detrimental health impacts as a result of GMO consumption. And they say that advancements in

biotechnology are good because it allows farmers to grow more and feed more people without having a greater environmental or health impact. Critics also say that, if the measure passes, food prices would go up and labeling foods that contain GMOs would only confuse consumers — who have long been eating the foods without, they say, any problems. But Cooper dismisses those concerns. “I really can’t understand how it would (raise food pric-
es),” Cooper said. “Obviously, they can choose to raise prices, but the bottom line is all they have to do is put a label on them. It’s not a ban.” Cooper is not a doctor or a scientist. He said he is “a grandpa who got involved” because he is concerned about what his grandchildren are eating. The way he figures, if there’s no problem with GMObased food, what’s the big deal if the ballot measure passes? “If GMOs are safe, then why not just label them?” he said.
