Arapahoe County program gains steam

GOALS partnership takes two-generation approach to help struggling families

thing after that they heard through others.

Family members would ask doctors, how are you treating this?

What are my loved one’s chances?

And last March, the answer was, we don’t know. There were few standards of care. The drugs were experimental. It was incredibly difficult for the doctors, and there was a lot of anger at the unknowing among families.

A unique, multi-pronged initiative to support families experiencing homelessness in Arapahoe County has been building its capacity and service offerings for the past couple years, and those who oversee the program expect to be running on all cylinders later this year.

Generational Opportunities to Achieve Long-Term Success (GOALS), run by both Arapahoe County Human Services and the nonprofit Family Tree, offers families a temporary living situation where community partners provide children with educational opportunities and parents with job training. Though the program officially launched in late 2019, many of those opportunities have not been available for families.

Family Tree is a human-services agency focused on ending child abuse, domestic violence and homelessness.

“We see ourselves emerging from this startup phase, if you will,” said Scott Shields, Family Tree’s CEO. Right now, 12 families reside at the GOALS campus in Aurora, a set of

job was facilitating video calls — holding up iPads to unconscious and intubated patients, so their family members could see them, and in hopes that the patients could hear their voices.

The unknown and the separation made it so scary. Normally, loved ones can be with their family members in the hospital, to understand the severity of the illness and what’s happening. With COVID, people just dropped them off at the door of the hospital, and every-

four buildings owned and operated by Family Tree. The families are housed in one of the buildings, where they have their own bedrooms but share a common area and a kitchen. The other buildings on campus will eventually be occupied by staff from community partners, including a daycare provider, STRIDE Community Health Center and Aurora Mental Health Center, among others, said Cheryl Ternes, director of Arapahoe County Human Services. When social distancing guidelines loosen, Family Tree expects to have 19 total families at the campus.

Five families made up the program’s inaugural class in August 2019, after Ternes saw a need for the county to support families experiencing homelessness with a “twogeneration” approach. The idea is for both children and parents to receive supports, thereby elevating the whole family.

“I just thought, ‘we can do better for families experiencing homeless, we can do better for the kids,’” Ternes said. After encountering research about two-generation

assistance, Ternes approached Shields with the idea of Arapahoe County funding Family Tree to run GOALS.

“How To Put An End To Knee Pain Even It’s Been Years of Misery”

While some elements of GOALS were familiar to Family Tree, which runs 11 distinct programs throughout the metro area, including in Jefferson, Adams and Douglas counties, Shields said the multigenerational focus was new for the nonprofit.

The program wants to help parents earn self-sufficient wages and

overcome barriers to employment, and to help children succeed in school and avoid engaging in risky behaviors, such as substance abuse.

The guidelines state that families can reside at the campus for four to nine months, though Ternes said that’s flexible based on a family’s progress and needs. Ultimately, the goal is for the families to transition into permanent housing.

GOALS’ slow progression throughout the pandemic has helped the Family Tree team become acquainted with the program, since there’s nothing else like it in Colorado. “It’s helpful to not go from zero to 60,” Shields said. But now, after having a year and a half under their belt, the team is eager to see it operate at full capacity. For example, the daycare hasn’t opened, but Family Tree has reached a memorandum of understanding with a provider that is expected to arrive in the coming months.

Even though GOALS hasn’t reached its full potential, Ternes said the program’s uniqueness has drawn interest from Douglas County, whose staff visited the GOALS campus to see if it’s something the county would be interested in replicating.

Overall, Ternes said, “I think that it’s been very successful, we’ve learned a lot … It makes so much sense to be able to connect directly with families and the children with the different providers based on what they need based on what their barriers are.”

By Leading CO Knee Pain Doctor of Physical Therapy, Brooke Olsen Denver - If I were to get bad knee pain again, here’s what I would do differently: First, I wouldn’t wait and hope it just goes away.

That only made it worse. I wouldn’t try to stretch, or get adjustments on it. I definitely wouldn’t get an injection (very dangerous long term). So what would I do?

some answers. I learned that in order to fix knee pain permanently and naturally, it’s really not that hard.

Hi, my name is Dr. Brooke Olsen, PT, DPT. I’m a national knee pain expert.

I’ve made a career for myself helping hundreds of active adults end their knee pain naturally, and I help them do it all over the country. But that wasn’t always the case. Early on in my career, I had bad knee pain. I previously tore my meniscus, MCL, and part of my ACL when I was young. Later, I had so much swelling and pain when just walking up and down stairs in the hospitals, nonetheless trying to go for a hike or walk around the park.

If you are wondering how you find what your root cause is, and how you can fix it once you find it, my new Best Selling book, Aging Happily Without Pain, will teach you all of that. I’ve gone ahead and paid for the books myself, all I ask is that you pay for the small shipping & handling fee to send it to you ($7.95).

You can either call my assistant Cody at (720)-772-1133 and he’ll help get a copy to your doorstep or just go online to this link:

The secret is fixing the root cause, which is the thing that’s causing your knee to hurt in the first place. Most treatment options just focus on relieving the pain where it hurts, without ever questioning why it hurts and what oth-er areas could be affecting it.

So if I ever got bad knee pain again, I would immediately start fixing the root cause of my pain, rather than waste time on temporary band-aid fixes.

Colorado ends mask rule for many indoor spaces With proof of vaccination, masks also not required in prisons, health care facilities; schools set own rules

Some rural areas already saw mask rules loosen

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

After 10 months of living under a statewide mask order, Coloradans saw a major step toward ending the requirement to wear masks in public spaces announced by Gov. Jared Polis, who made a point of emphasizing his maskless appearance.

“Today, I got to walk into our press briefing room without a mask, and it feels wonderful,” Polis, who is fully vaccinated, said during a May 14 news conference.

The governor announced changes to Colorado’s mask order following updated guidance by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as of May 13 that says fully vaccinated people no longer need to wear a mask or physically distance in any setting, except where required by law or regulations, or local business and workplace guidance.

“This has been a long, hard year for Coloradans, and it ain’t over yet, but we’re almost there,” said Polis, who added that while the pandemic isn’t done, vaccinated Coloradans can begin approaching it differently.

Colorado is making a move from a mask-wearing requirement to “guidance,” Polis said. That means for those not vaccinated yet, state

Attn: Child Care Providers: FREE LEADING EDGETM

Business planning for home-based child care providers in English and Spanish

officials suggest — “not order, but suggest,” Polis said — that they continue to wear a mask in indoor settings around others.

In some settings, Colorado will still require masks unless people can prove they are vaccinated.

Those include prisons and jails, health care facilities, and schools, Polis said.

Businesses will choose whether to require masks on their own, and Polis anticipated that many will continue to ask that customers wear masks for entry.

“I’m going to bring my mask in my pocket, and when asked, of course, as a matter of respect, I’ll put it on,” Polis said, noting that may be the case in grocery stores.

Some businesses may have worker safety in mind for those that haven’t

been vaccinated yet, Polis added.

Decision falls to schools In school settings, vaccinated Coloradans — including children who are eligible for a COVID-19 vaccine — may remove masks where the teachers or caregivers have provided proof of fully completed vaccination to their employer. But ultimately, allowing students and teachers to go maskless will be up to school districts, according to a fact sheet on the mask order.

When asked about school officials who say they’re not allowed to inquire about vaccination status, Polis said only people who can demonstrate they’re vaccinated can go without masks.

“If the teacher chooses to demonstrate they are vaccinated, they’ll no longer need to wear masks,” Polis said.

Proving vaccination status The governor briefly touched on the debate over COVID-19 “vaccine passports” — paper or digital forms certifying that a person has been vaccinated against COVID-19 — saying Colorado officials do not believe there’s “any comprehensive way” to have a state vaccine passport system.

“It violates people’s privacy — there’s no practical way to implement it,” Polis said, noting some establishments may ask for vaccination status and some may have an “honor system.”

An earlier update to Colorado’s mask order on May 2 had said people are permitted to remove their masks in certain indoor spaces if 80% of the people in the space have shown proof of vaccination.

That exemption did not apply in places including schools, child care centers, indoor children’s camps, public-facing state government facilities, prisons and health care settings, according to the governor’s office.

A person can show proof of vaccination by showing their vaccination card, a picture of the vaccination SEE MASK RULE, P16

Driver convicted of two traffic offenses in trooper’s death

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A jury has found a truck driver who faced trial this month for hitting and killing Colorado State Trooper Cody Donahue guilty on two of three counts.

Noe Gamez-Ruiz was found guilty of careless driving while passing an emergency vehicle resulting in death, a Count 1 traffic offense, and failure to remain in a single lane, a minor traffic offense. A judge could sentence him to probation or up to 12 months in jail.

The jury found Gamez-Ruiz not guilty of careless driving resulting in death, also a Count 1 traffic offense.

District Court Judge Jeffrey Holmes announced the verdict at roughly 10:45 a.m. on May 10 after jurors spent that morning and several hours on Friday, May 7 deliberating. The weeklong trial began May 3 with jury selection and reached

closing arguments by May 7.

Donahue died the day after Thanksgiving on Nov. 25, 2016 while investigating a separate crash on the side of Interstate 25 south of Castle Rock.

The trooper was standing between a crashed vehicle parked on the right shoulder and the interstate’s far-right fog lane when Gamez-Ruiz passed the scene driving a U.S. Foods truck, hitting and killing Donahue instantly.

Prosecutors had argued GamezRuiz had ample time to switch lanes and that the scene Donahue was working would have been visible from more than a mile away. They leaned heavily on evidence showing Gamez-Ruiz’s truck drifted to the right just as he passed Donahue and that he did not turn on his turn signal in an attempt to move over.

Dozens of other vehicles that passed the scene in the right lane gave troopers more space, centering their vehicles in the lane or mov-

ing toward the left, they said, while Gamez-Ruiz was the only vehicle to drift right.

Defense attorneys called the incident a tragic accident, and said Gamez-Ruiz had taken due diligence in trying to pass safely. He drove 20 mph under the speed limit and was blocked from switching lanes by fast-approaching vehicles behind him, they said.

Donahue also moved to his position by the fog lane roughly 15 seconds before Gamez-Ruiz hit him.

Prosecutors argued that was enough time to see the trooper and move, while defense attorneys said it was one factor making the fatal collision unforeseeable for Gamez-Ruiz.

Gamez-Ruiz had immediately pulled over and assisted deputies

as they investigated the collision, defense attorneys said.

This was the truck driver’s third trial in the four years since Donahue’s death.

The case resulted in mistrials in September 2018 and February 2019 when information was presented in court that prosecutors had not provided to defense attorneys before trial began.

District Court Judge Shay Whitaker lessened the sentence GamezRuiz could face as a sanction for the first mistrial and dismissed a felony charge as a sanction for the second.

Prosecutors appealed the felony dismissal, but the Colorado Court of Appeals upheld the decision.

Gamez-Ruiz will return for his next court appearance in July.

Nonprofit aims to help students

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As the pandemic’s economic effects continue to strain families, a south Denver metro nonprofit is gearing up to provide students with new backpacks, school supplies and family meal support.

“IFCS sees firsthand, daily, how community support makes a difference in addressing inequities that are currently exacerbated by the pandemic,” the nonprofit said in a

news release.

Integrated Family Community Services — which serves families and individuals in the Englewood-Littleton area and beyond — is looking for support from the community for its “Ready, Set, School!” program.

The effort is aimed at students in kindergarten through eighth grade and leans on “the generosity of community sponsors,” the nonprofit said in the release.

HARVEY FROM PAGE 1

Helping the helpless Everyone felt really helpless, but our job as chaplains was not trying to fix it or make it go away, but to bear witness to their pain and support them on their journey.

I’m still trying to sort out the effect it had on me. All the metaphors were about war and battle — “front lines.” “Heroes.” “Battling the unseen enemy.” There was a lot of secondary trauma.

Now that things are calmed down to a degree, things will pop into my head. One night, about 1 in the morning, a nurse asked me

to call a man whose wife had just died of COVID. When I called, he told me he had just lost his son to COVID, and now he had it too. He said, “COVID has taken everyone I love, and I couldn’t even come to the hospital to be with my wife.”

It was the most alone I had ever heard anyone feel.

I was his connection to the outside world in that darkness and loneliness. I don’t know if he survived. Because of our clinical boundaries, I don’t get to call later and see how someone’s doing. It’s hard, but it’s also freeing. I don’t have the option to know, so I put it out to God and the universe.

‘I don’t have a quid pro quo relationship with God. I can see that God is with us in our suffering, but God doesn’t cause it.’ lies who had good outcomes, too.

Some people I got to help leave. I got close to their family members.

Now we’re allowing family members to come in for an hour a day in a controlled manner.

The first wave hit the most vulnerable. The oldest, the sickest. Equity issues were laid bare.

Our hospital had a lot of people of color, with kidney problems or diabetes, and many didn’t even know they had diabetes. During the first wave, our ICU had only a handful of white patients.

Everyone else a person of color.

The second wave was less discriminate. One of the nurses said COVID was like a predator. First it took out the weakest, then the next-weakest.

There are a lot fewer in our COVID wing now, but there are a lot more in their 30s and 40s. All unvaccinated.

‘More resilient than I thought I was’ I don’t have a quid pro quo rela-

tionship with God. I can see that God is with us in our suffering, but God doesn’t cause it. If your loved one is struggling to breathe, God is with us in that struggle.

One thing that struck me: how many people had a view of God as judgmental and punishing. “What did my wife do to deserve this?”

Theologically it was hard for me.

Unlike a preacher, my job isn’t to teach anyone, but to help them uncover resources they already have.

I learned I’m a lot more resilient than I thought I was, and that it’s OK to not be resilient all the time, and to have a day to fall apart. We have to release it. There’s something about being in health care, that hero mentality — we need to tell ourselves it’s OK to not be the hero.

Everyone should get vaccinated. Seeing people who haven’t had anyone get really sick from COVID don’t have any idea how heartbreaking and terrible it can be.

Even if you recover, you don’t know the extent of damage it will do to your body. I have loved ones who have chosen not to get vaccinated, and it’s all too easy for me to picture them in that ICU. COVID is also a reminder that we truly never know how many days we have left, and that we never know what’s coming.

VOICES We’ve come a long way together

H

e’s been following me for years. Waiting for me around every corner. I can’t get away from him.

The truth is I don’t QUIET want to.

Bob Dylan was DESPERATION born on May 24, 1941. That means he’ll be 80 years old in a few days.

What I have is an appreciation for an earthly character who sits in front of a typewriter and makes strange and Craig Marshall wonderful word Smith connections with life.

There are two ways to take him.

One is straight like a shot of rye.

His voice, I’m told, is a nasally mutter in concert, but recorded its lack of refinement is perfectly suited for his unique lyrics.

Or you can take him prettied up by others. The first Bob Dylan song I heard performed by someone else was “It Ain’t Me Babe,”

by a group called the Turtles.

Others soon followed: Peter Paul and Mary, the Byrds, the Band, Joan Baez, the Beatles, Nina Simone, Linda Ronstadt, Johnny Cash, Jimi Hendrix.

And Duke Ellington.

Dylan’s first radio hit, “Like a Rolling Stone,” peaked at number 2 in 1965. Although it didn’t do much for me, there was a lot of it: At six minutes it was twice as long as everything else on Top Forty radio.

Between the release of “The Times They Are a-Changin” in 1964 and “Things Have Changed” in 2000 not a lot did change.

And they still haven’t.

“Come senators, congressmen, please heed the call / Don’t stand in the doorway, don’t block up the hall / For he that gets hurt / Will be he who has stalled / There’s a battle outside and it’s ragin’ / It’ll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls.”

That could have been written earlier this year.

His folksy fans booed with

intolerance when he plugged in his guitar. That was a personal discovery about hypocrisy. One that continues to be sustained in abundance by politicians and priests and countless others.

Half the time I didn’t know what he was talking about. Then I quit wondering and just went along.

“An’ he just smoked my eyelids and punched my cigarette.”

Bob Dylan? Eighty? It can’t be, but it is.

“Your debutante just knows what you need, but I know what you want.”

Half a dozen songs of his songs make me put down whatever I am doing and listen.

“Memphis Blues Again” is one.

The lyrics make no sense. But I quote them to someone if it’s only to myself all the time.

The end of the song is an unexpected perfection about any experience we go through that we don’t want to repeat.

“An’ here I sit so patiently / Waiting to find out what price

/ You have to pay to get out of / Going through all these things twice.”

In 1959, singer Bobby Vee and his band the Shadows were looking for a piano player. Dylan introduced himself as Elston Gunnn (yes: three “n’s”), and said he had just gotten off the road with Conway Twitty.

Gunnn didn’t own a piano and played on one that was out of tune. Eventually, Vee decided the band couldn’t afford him and Gunnn left.

In 2013, three years before Vee’s death, Dylan sang Vee’s “Suzie Baby” as a tribute.

We separated for a while after his motorcycle accident and again during his born-again period (1979-81). But since then it’s been like old times and good.

Some people get into your life and stay there. If you’re lucky.

Which side are you on?

A

s I sat outside enjoying my morning coffee and reading the news, the calm and normalcy of my day was interrupted WINNING by several people walking in my WORDS direction. They were easy enough to notice, as they were wearing hats showing who they supported, and they had big buttons pinned to their jacket making it very Michael Norton clear whose side they were on. And if that wasn’t enough, they marched down the street shouting at all those who they believed were against them.

Thinking that the commotion would pass, and I could get on with a quiet cup of coffee and some reading time, things only became more interesting. Coming from the opposite direction was another group of people wearing hats and buttons, even carrying flags and pennants that made it clear that they were in complete

opposition of the first group.

As I sized up the situation, it became abundantly clear that their paths would collide right in front of me. A few people seated at the other tables on the patio became a little anxious. Some seemed ready to jump in and pick a side. Looking at what both groups represented, I realized that I didn’t support either one. I didn’t have a dog in this hunt, as some might say.

As one group drew closer from my right, I could hear the taunting getting louder. As the other group approached from my left, the name calling started. It appeared that things were going to get ugly and get ugly fast. Those that were a little anxious made the move back inside the coffee shop. And those customers who just a few minutes earlier were sitting quietly sipping on coffee began getting fired up and moved closer to the oncoming fray. With limited options, and I was forced to decide. I secured my coffee with one hand, pocketed my phone with the other, and prepared to escape.

The people in red hats and red T-shirts were moving quickly

toward the people with blue hats and blue T-shirts. The people wearing blue were not backing down, they stood their ground.

Just when the two sides were about to have a final showdown of guts and glory, I came up with a way to stop the insanity. I shouted, “Go O’s!”

The people wearing red stopped and stared. The group in blue looked at me in confusion. But there I was, the Oriole fan that I am, bringing peace to a potentially hazardous baseball fan brawl.

The Red Sox fans began to laugh, the Yankee fans laughed even harder. Peace was restored with both sides reminding me that the O’s were in last place. Just then a Red Sox fan challenged me, asking me who I would root for between the Yankees and Red Sox. I said that I root for them both, that if my O’s were out of contention, I wouldn’t care who won, just as long as whoever won the division, that they would go on to win the World Series. Reminding them that we are all in the same division and at the end of the day, we should be rooting for each other

not fighting and arguing over nonsense (said with my best attempt at a Boston accent).

Red verse Blue, Blue verse Red, it’s all nonsense. One day maybe we will all realize that our teams are stronger together, and that we have the best chance of winning when we are aligned and pulling for one another instead of trying to tear each other down.

This is a fictitious story and it could appear that I am taking a tough and complex situation and oversimplifying it or not respecting the gravity or potential consequences should one side get their way. However, I will stand firm in my belief and root for us all to win and win together. I would love to hear your story at mnorton@ tramazing.com, and when we can come together to root for each other, it really will be a better than good year.

Examining the outlook for economic recovery

he United States economic outlook has “clearly brightened,” according to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. The Washington Post also states that the U.S. FINANCIAL emerges as the main engine for STRATEGIES global economic recovery as jobs spike and stimulus cash is spent, mainly on goods imported from other countries. This should help buoy a global recovery but could also increase our Patricia Kummer trade deficit.

Three rounds of stimulus checks, increased corporate earnings and a bull market well underway are fueling significant economic gains in the U.S. Unemployment is improving, gross domestic product (GDP) is escalating, and many businesses are reopening. There is no doubt some businesses and jobs are gone for good, but the ability to rebound in the midst of a pandemic is something apparently only America can do so far in 2021. China led the recovery in 2020 as the first

to reopen their economy after the pandemic.

The economy as a whole seems to be thriving on unprecedented stimulus, continued low interest rates and widely anticipated increase in real GDP to 6.5 percent this year.¹ Most economists warn this could lead to higher inflation as well.

Investors are enjoying this earnings season, where, so far, a record 87% of S&P 500 companies have beat earnings estimates, and earnings look to be growing by more than 46 percent, according to Refinitiv. There may be a hangover of increased federal deficit, a higher trade deficit and rising costs and interest rates. But, for now, investors are cashing in on equities and pushing off inflation fears until later.

Manufacturing activity, according to the Institute of Supply Management (ISM), hit its fastest pace since 1983 in March, while the U.S. service sector continued to see solid improvement in activity.

The trends in new COVID-19 cases and deaths were moving in a favorable direction, though variants remain a potential unknown and there were renewed lockdowns in Europe and India. Nevertheless,

the global economic trends provided a positive backdrop for stocks.

Opposite of last year, when a few large tech names led the way, so far this year, value-oriented stocks outperformed growth stocks and small caps topped large caps.

Brett Lapierre, senior investment strategist with Mariner Wealth Advisors, states that U.S. equity markets continue to operate in a favorable backdrop amid accelerating economic and earnings growth and an accommodative central bank. Equity markets can generally handle a steady and modest rise in interest rates if this happens for the right reasons such as faster economic growth.

But if rates rise too quickly nervousness can appear. Inflation worries can also hurt equity prices, particularly when valuations are elevated.

Jeff Krumpelman, chief investment strategist for Mariner Wealth Advisors, has pointed out that there remain few signs that markets are in bubble territory.

He wouldn’t be surprised if we see a correction or sideways market over the next few months, which

could prove to be a healthy development.

Looking ahead, Lapierre expects above-average economic growth and higher inflation over the next several months. He sees the acceleration in inflation as temporary, giving the Fed some wiggle room before having to lift short-term interest rates. Risks to this outlook include a period of higher inflation lasting longer, the potential for tax increases to shorten the economic rebound and the potential for COVID-19’s impact to linger.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

End transcript withholding When colleges withhold transcripts for ransom for unpaid - fines, it creates a vicious Catch-22; students need a well-paying job to afford the fine, they need a degree to get a well-paying job, students need a transcript to prove they finished their degree, and they can’t get a transcript until they pay the fine.

For most colleges, the cost of an unpaid parking ticket or library fine is an insignificant portion of their budget. For many students, those expenses mean missing rent or not being able to eat. When students can’t pay a single fine, the late fees add up over time. Their life plans are derailed, they become liable for paying back grants and thousands of dollars they’ve invested into their education goes to waste. e This practice doesn’t work for schools either; even with the most aggressive collection tactics, colleges only retrieve 7 cents for every dollar owed. Thousands of students are being held back due to a policy that is ineffective at best and greedy at worst. If schools stopped withholding transcripts, more students would be able to obtain their degree and become financially stable enough to pay the fine.

Transcript withholding is a barrier to financial mobility that gets overlooked by the public, so it’s important we shine a light on the issue.

Make a plan to meet with your state legislators this summer and fall so they know their constituents want to see a bill next legislative session that will ban transcript withholding.

Paulina Castle Englewood Importance of air quality Without good air quality, our

health and well-being is in jeopardy.

Our community, along with many others can experience some of the highest ozone concentrations in the country. This invisible air pollutant is harmful to all of us, affecting our lungs and heart, but is especially bad for young children, older adults, and anyone with sensitivity or respiratory issues like asthma and COPD. When considering air quality regulating standards it is overwhelming for the non-air quality expert to understand the measurements of carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, ozone, and particulate matter levels and how these measurements relate to the air we breathe. However, we all understand when we can’t see the mountains or the downtown skyline due to smog, we have not met good air quality standards.

The City of Centennial recently approved budget to include energy efficient upgrades to the city buildings, as well as increasing the number of electric vehicles (EV) to their fleet. City land use zoning was changed to include EV charging stations where possible. In comparing these efforts against the overall air quality in the world, they seem small, but if all of could contribute at least this much, we could see progress in improving our air quality.

Whether it be driving an electric vehicle, organizing or participating in a car pool, walking to the grocery store, or opening the windows in your home versus turning on the AC are all simple steps that contribute to improving our air quality. Every effort is worth it to improve our air quality.

DJs ready to mix it up

Recent proms are just the tip of the iceberg for live entertainment companies that are wanting to increase business after a slow and difficult year of public health restrictions.

Imprint Entertainment has done three proms at Denver metro high schools this spring.

Live entertainment companies and DJs are eager to go back to normal after a year of restrictions tied to COVID-19.

After a long and difficult year, live entertainment companies and DJs want to go back to normal. They have managed with socially distanced events, or private proms or virtual proms. But many look forward to events, weddings being chief among them, where more people are allowed.

ear that? Well, if the noise you heard any time in the past year, there’s a good chance it wasn’t the sound of a disc jockey booth.

Not surprisingly, business has been bad for DJs and live entertainment companies. COVID-19 restrictions reduced the number of gigs for Denver metro DJs to nearly zero. Many squeaked by from working virtual proms and socially distanced bar mitzvahs and bat mitzvahs, but it’s already much better because there are now real proms and other events as public health restrictions loosen.

“I feel like we went from hibernating bears to chickens with our heads cut off,”

said Rikki Mor, operations manager at Denver-based Imprint Entertainment. For most of last year, Mor said she could count the number of live events Imprint booked on two hands.

Michael Crabtree, owner of Denver-based DJ Guy, said business was down 80% to 85% from 2019 to 2020. DJ Connection, a nationwide company that has a Denver office, had 4,000 events scheduled last year, three-quarters of which were canceled, said owner Jason Bailey.

Some events were entirely nonexistent during the pandemic, such as school dances and corporate events. All of the companies worked weddings and Imprint did a few bar and bat mitzvahs, one of which was a “carmitzvah,” Mor described.

At the carmitzvah — held at Wings over the Rockies in Denver— people congregated and celebrated by setting up tables at their adequately distanced parked cars, Mor said.

Another pandemic-flex event the DJs worked was

the “private prom.” DJ Guy booked one with about 25 high school students from different schools, whose parents (the parents were in a friend group) put on for their kids at a small venue. Crabtree jokingly said, “It felt a lot more like parents planning a party for themselves and the kids were invited.” The ratio of parents who took photos in the photo booth versus the students is evidence of that, he added.

That said, the students seemed like they had a lot of fun because “they had been stripped of some of these fun and engaging things that have been a rite of passage in high school,” Crabtree said. Not only were the restrictions slightly looser at the private prom, but parents were more relaxed about the music.

For example, at a school-sanctioned dance, Crabtree might not be allowed to play an unedited version of Cardi B’s “WAP,” but the private prom parents didn’t have a problem with it. “It’s kinda funny,” Crabtree said.

Slightly similar, DJ Connection worked virtual proms, where a student and their date were at individual homes and streamed into a group Zoom. The DJ, in his own Zoom box, played the music and performed as they normally do — even pausing at points to hype up the crowd by saying, “we got some shout-outs here!” or “we’re giving out prizes!” — to make the experience feel as normal as possible, Bailey said.

Virtual proms have been fun, but also, “weird because you can’t see the kids … it’s a strange experience for us because DJs feed off the crowd’s energy,” Bailey said.

However, those strange events have helped the bottom line. Even then, Imprint had to lay off a few full-time employees and a few DJs departed. DJ Connection dealt with the same problem, but it didn’t end up laying off full-time employees because it’s a larger company. Still, Bailey worries if he’ll have enough DJs to work the bevy of events the company is lining up for later this year. A few DJs with DJ Guy were

furloughed.

“I don’t personally see us recovering as an industry until at least 2022 to 2023, depending,” said Crabtree.

Things are picking up, though.

Imprint recently did a prom at Legacy High School, an Adams 12 Five Star Schools district school, and DJ Connection did a prom at Horizon High School in Thornton, another Adams 12 school. DJ Guy recently did a dance with Douglas County School District and is looking to book events with Jefferson County Public Schools. Imprint, DJ Connection and DJ Guy all have tons

Live entertainment companies have faced struggles while working for socially distanced or virtual events, and are hoping for a better future as COVID-19 restrictions wind down.

of weddings on the horizon. Many are rescheduled gigs, but some are new events. On June 26, Bailey said DJ Connection will be at 19 events in Denver, over half of which are rescheduled events.

Like other businesses, live entertainment companies are cautiously optimistic about the prospect of more, and larger, gatherings as more people are vaccinated. That’s

what excites the live entertainment companies, despite the struggles they still deal with. Mor said, “It is enthralling, and it is exciting. I think people have just missed being together. I think there is a little bit of anxiety for people to go back into situations. But it’s overwhelmingly more that people are so thrilled and excited to be together; it just provides a sense of adrenaline.”

rom Larimer Square to the Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Denver is truly a great place to call home and enjoy retirement.

With the Rockies at your doorstep, there are virtually unlimited opportunities for adventure. Denver is also No. 3 on the list of America’s Best Cities* for a Healthy (and More Affordable Retirement).

What you may not know is a reverse mortgage loan from AAG may help you get even more out of your retirement.

A reverse mortgage is simply a way for you to convert some of your built-up home equity into cash for your retirement — cash to pay off large bills or high-interest credit card debt, make home improvements, cover medical expenses, build a bigger rainy-day fund, or simply get out and enjoy more of the Mile High City.

If you choose, you can wait to repay your loan when you permanently leave your home. Although a reverse mortgage requires no monthly mortgage payments, you are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of your home, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and, if required, HOA fees.

“Working with Jarred Talmadge and AAG was a very nice experience,” said AAG customer Angela Pendergraft. “No pressure or feelings of anxiety. He answered all our questions and concerns leaving us feeling comfortable with our decision to do a reverse mortgage.”

If you want to learn how a reverse mortgage can specifically improve your retirement, AAG Market Sales Manager Jarred Talmadge, NMLS# 1842043, and his team are ready to assist you.

Rachael Raymond Arapahoe High School Tell us a little about your high school career: Clubs, sports, activities and things you participated in during high school.

My last four years at Arapahoe High I was a peer coach for special needs students in the classrooms and aswell for unified basketball.

What are your plans after graduation?

I plan to attend Metropolitan State University of Denver to study Health Sciences with an emphasis in Occupational Therapy in the Fall.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

I have learned many major lessons during the pandemic. The first was to 100% lead with empathy and love.

Being able to put yourself in others shoes during both restful and chaotic times helped me understand these challenges. This made me realize how important mental health truly is.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

Passionate, Courageous, and Determined

What do you see as your graduating class’ mission to better the world?

A year ago, everything was turned upside down; but time did not stop. We were juniors during a worldwide pandemic stuggling with the uncertainties of losing a loved one, becoming sick ourselves, and just our mental and emotional wellbeing with day to day challenges. We spent months in our homes, uncertain of the future. Arapahoe High helped us adapt, by providing the tools that were needed for remote learning.

Getting through this year has been very challenging and a huge lesson we should all take with us.

Even in the middle of these circumstances, we did it! I would describe this graduating class as resilient and driven. We all must move forward without worry or fear. We have learned to overcome many obstacles and to never give up during a time of chaos and confusion. We are resilient and stronger than ever before.

Focus on the future that is filled with hope and optimism and to grow in the face of adversity.

Pria Zaveri Arapahoe High School Tell us a little about your high school career: Clubs, sports, activities and things you participated in during high school.

Throughout my high school career I have been involved in cross country, track, Future Business Leaders of America, and the School Accountability Committee. These groups have helped me grow as a person and are very supportive, especially at Arapahoe! By working with teammates, coaches, and administration I have been able to race unique courses, develop business plans, and provide a student voice throughout this community. My favorite memory was running a cross country meet in Salida Colorado. Our team discovered a section that felt as if we should have been hiking a classic Colorado 14er!

What are your plans after graduation?

After graduation I will be joining the Leeds School of Business at the University of Colorado Boulder.

I plan to take part in the Leeds Scholars Program in order to gain a global perspective and provide community outreach. I hope to major with an emphasis in entrepreneurship and a minor in Spanish.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

Throughout the pandemic I have learned how to balance a variety of activities that helped me. Perhaps, the most important value I learned was taking time to find the humor in life! This year I started rock climb-

ing with a close group of friends and enjoying lead routes. Climbing every morning taught me consistency and it’s been pretty humorous doing it on little sleep!

In general, you’ll often find me cracking jokes or randomly dancing!

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

The three adjectives that come to mind going forward include flexibility, humor, and innovation. I have always been a dreamer excited to explore the variety of dynamic activities through education, sports, and as a global citizen. Showcasing these adjectives means being adventurous and willing to create a path forward, but enjoying the ride like no other! As the Rascal Flatts always said “Life is a Highway.”

What do you see as your graduating class’ mission to better the world?

In a sea of chaos the class of 2021 has weathered a storm like no other.

However, at Arapahoe our saying says, “Warriors, always take care of one another. I truly believe my graduating class’ mission is to simply be good people. Bettering the world starts at a local level and gradually grows into something much larger.

In my eyes, this is a class that is willing to take on challenges with determination, ambition, and grit.

However, I also believe the class of 2021 must define their own definition of success, failure, and leadership. Only then can we better the world.

Matthew Becker Arapahoe High School Tell us a little about your high school career: Clubs, sports, activities and things you participated in during high school.

I participated in our student council, serving as class president for three years and student body president my senior year. I ran cross country and track, and served as a member of National Honors Society as well.

What are your plans after graduation?

I plan to attend Santa Clara University, majoring in mechanical engineering.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

While not necessarily a single moment, I think of all the times quarantines forced my plans to change. Week after week, I became frustrated with each successive disappointment. Although most times I knew the likelihood of sickness to be low, each quarantine represented a chance to demonstrate

my respect.

respect to those around me. Too often our words and our actions do not align; if I claim to be a man who respects the people closest to me, my actions need to reflect this as well. I realized I have very little to give a person if I cannot first show

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward Anticipatory - The idea of a college experience coupled with the potential for return to a more “normal” life makes me excited for what lies ahead. Graduation marks the closing of a special season in my life, but the start of a season bound to teach valuable lessons and form treasured memories.

Weathered - While at times exhausting, the past months have placed a number of events into perspective. Moving forward, I will have this time to look back on, realizing very few worries are worth the time spent thinking about them.

Persistent - I am now, more than ever before, willing to ask my own questions, pursuing new ideas and curiosities over and over until I find a solution I am satisfied with.

What do you see as your graduating class’ mission to better the world?

The past year has taught us an incredible appreciation for time together. As we leave high school and enter into the world, I hope we can keep this value close to our hearts, seeking out the people in our lives who mean the most to us. We leave with a special perspective on fellowship, freshly enlightened by the flexible strength of true friendships. I hope our class can act with confidence, pursuing new relationships in our plans beyond school while continuing in our pursuit of steadfast friendship. I believe we are better equipped than any class before us to pursue relationships, prioritizing our time to spend our lives with those we are closest to. I hope we can grow in our respect for others, never hesitating to remind people how much they are loved.

Cherokee Trail High School Tell us a little about your high school career: Clubs, sports, activities and things you participated in during high school.

I have been a member of Multilingual Club and Sources of Strength. I have also been a member of Link Crew, Student Leadership, and National Honor Society.

What are your plans after graduation?

I will attend a four-year university and major in biochemistry (Pre-Med) What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

I remember waking up every day, turning on my computer, logging into an online meeting, and as I stared at the screen I wondered when did all change so suddenly. The pandemic was an unexpected turn in the lives of everyone; and it made me realize that the most precious gift life has in store is time. The time you spend with friends and family, and the ability to share the same space with the ones we love most.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

My outlook going forward is hopeful, positive, and excited for everyone to come back better and stronger from the pandemic.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

Our mission as a graduating class would be to find unity within separation. The pandemic isolated many families and students, for safety and precautions we were instructed to keep the distance from one another; in order to better the world our class should reestablish the unity that might have seemed lost due to the pandemic.

Tell us a little about your high school career: Clubs, sports, activities and things you participated in during high school.

I was involved with student leadership for two years, taking on student body president my senior year. I played lacrosse for four years and was named captain my senior year. I was involved with neXus (a freshman support class), Sources of Strength, Link Crew, and peer tutoring specifically in chemistry.

What are your plans after graduation?

Being a Daniels Fund Scholar, I plan on attending Colorado State University; focusing on a degree in natural sciences with a chemistry education concentration. I will continue my passion for lacrosse and play on CSU’s club team while exploring opportunities to continue helping my community.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

I have always been independent and enjoyed personal time to read or do other activities I enjoy on my own. During the pandemic, I was certainly able to satisfy my introverted needs, but after reflecting I learned something. I found that I still had a genuine desire to interact with people because of how much I enjoy being there for others. However, with everyone being separated, it was much harder to be there for other people because you can’t read their needs or see how they are honestly doing. This was hard to deal with at first but it helped me discover a multitude of different ways to be there for people. I learned that it is possible to support people even if you are not in close contact with them and it is important to do so because you

aren’t always aware of what people have going on at home.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

Optimistic, hopeful, and thankful. I am optimistic for my future and the challenges that will come. I know that I will encounter hard times, but I know that I have the grit and determination to get through them.

I am hopeful that I can continue to help people around me and inspire them to pursue their passion despite the difficulties they encounter. I look forward to the opportunity to also do this as a teacher after I graduate college. I am thankful for the people that continue to support me and inspire me to fight for what I believe in. I am also grateful for the opportunities I have been given and will continue to work hard, now seeing how much it pays off.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

My graduating class has always been accepting of others despite the differences each of us possess.

We are passionate about rights and inclusion regardless of sexuality, race, and other qualities that make us individuals and have shown that we can and will unite to stand behind others in need when the time comes. I believe we will fight against inequality and be accepting to all around us. We will continue to dare to be different and not let people stop us from doing what is right or what we believe in because of historical expectations or standards. We will each contribute to promoting acceptance in our own fields of endeavor and inspire other generations to do the same.

A memorable moment for me during the pandemic was being able to support a student at our school for wish week.

Although our school was split by cohorts

we still came together as one school and showed up and supported her. It was a moment where I realized that no matter what kinds of times we are in I can still do my best to be a genuine and great human being. It showed me that I can still bring smiles and joy to someone else even with everything going on in my own life and that seeing someone else up brings me up.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

My first adjective would be joyful because happiness can easily be taken away by joy there’s something so strong and can’t be as easy to take away. My second adjective would be content because I had

to realize and understand that whatever is happening edges is what it is and I have to keep going and be content with all of those things. Lastly my last adjective would be perseverance which ties into my second adjective about how through everything that has gone on with the pandemic and life changes I had to keep going strong and not let up.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

My graduating class — the class of summer — our mission to better the world is to be like summer and continue to shine light and bring kindness, happiness and joy to wherever we journey in life. Our mission is to show others that no matter the circumstances of life you can always get through and make it through.

I was an active member of my school’s GayStraight Alliance my freshmAn, sophomore, and junior year. I managed the girls swim team my junior and senior year.

I managed the softball team my senior year. I have done theatre since my freshmAn year. I’ve been helping with set construction, and I’ve acted in shows all four years. I co-managed the costumes crew for shows my junior and senior year. Basically, anytime I wasn’t in class, you could easily find me in the theatre department.

What are your plans after graduation?

I’m going to study theatre arts at Colorado State University!

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

A key value I learned is the idea that family really can be the best medicine.

My mental health struggled through this pandemic. It especially took a rough turn when school went online again last fall.

But our theatre director

announced we could perform a play via Zoom!

Getting to spend two days a week, even just on Zoom, with my favorite people was monumental in helping me push through. And next getting to do our live-streamed, in-person play. Followed by our musical, which we got to perform for a live audience! Especially knowing that everybody I love got to see me take my final bow in Fisher Auditorium. My friends in the Englewood Theatre Company truly have become my family. I don’t know where I would be without them.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

Optimistic. Bold. Unapologetic.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

I’m honestly not sure.

There’s so many different people going down so many different paths. I think our mission should be to ultimately create and foster a society that is kind, patient, and tolerant.

We should work towards creating a more beautiful world.

Grant Webster Englewood High School Tell us a little about your high school career: Clubs, sports, activities and things you participated in during high school.

I have participated in many extracurriculars in my four years of high school. I was fortunate to serve as the president of my school’s campus beautification club, a club focused on promoting sustainability at our school. I also served as the secretary for the Englewood High School National Honor Society Chapter, treasurer for the FBLA chapter, and varsity captain for both the lacrosse and cross country teams. I really enjoyed participating in my community with the Youth Roots teen philanthropy programs as well as mentoring younger players within Pirate Youth Sports. I was fond of playing music either on the tenor saxophone, bass clarinet, or mellophone. Outside of these activities I loved to sail, and while sailing in Colorado might seem odd, being able to volunteer and work for Community Sailing of Colorado was a fantastic opportunity for me.

What are your plans after graduation?

Following graduation, I plan on attending Colorado State University in fall of 2021 as a civil/ environmental engineering major.

I will also be working as an intern for Lockheed Martin Space here in Colorado.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

In mid March of 2020, when the pandemic first began, my family each contracted the COVID-19

virus. While I held a mild case, I watched as my parents’ health slowly deteriorated.

My father eventually ended up going to the hospital with severe respiratory issues, and during a time of such uncertainty, I didn’t know if he would be coming back out. While my family was extremely fortunate, many weren’t.

This event helped me to reflect on what I actually had and grow much more grateful for the faces I see every day. I believe the pandemic circumstances have helped me to learn what is important and what is not; I’ve had to make some tough decisions thus far but I am so appreciative for what I have and where I am going.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

I see green, equitable, and persistent as my three outlook descriptors going forward. Coming out of the worldwide epidemic, it will be important for future generational leaders to tackle problems with new ideas to help grow society and make it fair for everyone. I hope to do my due diligence in leading this generation going forward.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

I believe the graduating class of 2021 has matured under less-thanideal conditions. The mistakes that have affected our community inspire individuals to pursue solutions that can help everyone. Our mission is simply to learn from the past and aim for the objectives all of us want completed in the future.

To attend UCD and receive my bachelor’s in biomedical.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

A memorable moment during the pandemic that instilled a key value within me was when the certain amount of time I’ve spent without people started to hit me and the thought of constantly wondering when the next time I will be able to socialize always in my head. At first my brain decided to react on being a product of its

own environment and I started to use this as an excuse to always be in my head and drive myself crazy. I was so used to always being around people. Through time I took this as an opportunity to learn more about myself. Especially because at the time I was 16 years old. Basically I was growing up and maturing and still being a kid at the same time. Through this experience and through the hardships of the pandemic I taught myself to enjoy my own company as much as enjoying someone else’s. This has sparked up a lot of self love and confidence and I truly believe that it is the reason why my senior year went so smoothly considering how much of it was lost and how much of it was unnormal.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

Inspiring, successful and happy. I first wanna start by saying inspiring because as a black woman it is my dream to go far and inspire others who let their label and appearance stop them from what they really want to do. I also say successful because

right now I have very big dreams but in the end I truly just want to be successful. To be honest I’m truly OK if I am raising chickens in the future as long as I’m successful and happy I know I did what I had to do. Also many people believe that having $1000 paying job means you’re happy when it’s not true so when I get older I want to learn what it is really like to be happy with what you’ve created with yourself. My biggest goal is to bloom wherever I get planted.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

I believe that our mission is to stand out and make names for our generation. This generation has some stories to it. It’s very easy for them to appear on the news or the next article on social media. But I hope and I also know for a fact that we will do our part from our community and spread to the world to show there is more to our generation then what may just be shown on live television or screen. Our mission is to teach those not to see what they want to see but what they need to see and apply that to them.

Erin Tillman Grandview High School What are your plans after graduation?

After I graduate, I plan to pursue a degree in music business at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

A memorable moment that taught me the importance/therapeutic impact of music is when I was no longer able to sing in my school choir. We had class via technology, so for choir we all sang in our house with our mics muted. During the pandemic, we have had two virtual choir concerts. They turned out to be good from a singing standpoint, but it just does not have the same effect as when it is in-person. It doesn’t produce the same level of emotion for the audience. During quarantine, I decided to create my own Instagram page dedicated to my singing (@ erinetillman). I found the courage to do this because I so passionately wanted to help fill the gap of this loss of music in my life and other people’s lives.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

Resilient, optimistic, and innovative What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

I see our mission as being kind to others to provide a sense of unity and compassion to the world. We have all struggled in one way or another throughout this pandemic, so I feel that it has made the people around me a lot more empathetic. The importance of mental health has also been receiving more recognition, and I think that treating others with kindness makes both that person and the people in their life feel better.

Elishevlyne Eliason Smoky Hill High School What are your plans after graduation?

I will be studying at Yale University and double majoring in political science and English What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

One key experience I had during the pandemic was starting a media service group with three of my close friends called The Other Perspective. Through it, I got to lead and edit a video service project along with 15 classmates and got to send the project, along with personalized emails, to frontline workers in my community thanking them for their service. In the end, the video garnered 7,500+ views and directly reached frontline workers in my immediate community.

However, above all else, this memorable project taught me the value of authentic service, showing me that leadership is about more than numbers and views, title and awards. Through it, I’ve learned that testament of a true leader is how they treat others in moments of hardship, when they have nothing to gain and everything to lose. The best leaders chose selflessness over self-preservation.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

The main three adjectives that

describe my post-high school (and hopefully post-pandemic life) are content, hopeful, and restless. While some of these may seem contradictory, I truly believe they encapsulate my viewpoint going forward. This is because this year has taught me to value what I have been given, to believe that better things are yet to come, and to never be complacent when they don’t because it takes action to make sure they do.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

I believe it is my graduating class’s responsibility to invest as much time in themselves as they do in their social causes and vice versa. This year has had an evident impact on both the social health of America and the mental health of individuals. My class is part of the generation eager to see the world change, but I think we often forget that if we aren’t mentally healthy, it becomes all the more difficult to aid the world around us. But at the same time, this doesn’t mean forsaking the global issues going on. So essentially, the best thing the class of 2021 can do for our world is to prioritize ourselves and our neighbors, never forgetting that there truly is an “and” between the two, not an “or”.

Aaron Vadakkan Grandview High School What are your plans after graduation?

I’ll be taking my talents to the University of Colorado-Boulder to study marketing and biology, where I seek to turn my passion for science into a career.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

Reports surfaced in late May that tied two potential catastrophes together. The demand for single-use personal protective equipment (PPE) had grown exponentially as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and masks discarded after each use had often ended up in landfills. The possible long-lasting detrimental effects were severe, and marine life was expected to take the hardest blow. After some more research, my brother Steven and I launched Mask Up 4 Change, a business that donates 30% of its profits to the Colorado COVID-19 Relief Fund. This taught me the value of service because it

felt great to be able to give back to my community. Moreover, a small effort on our part led to an even bigger impact than we could have imagined.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

Promising — As people who lived through a deadly pandemic, our experience can only improve from here.

Motivated — If we can find success in high school despite it being online, what can’t we do?

Advocative — We are passionate about pressing social issues and will fight until we see them solved.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

As a graduating class, we understand how little we know and how much there is left to learn.

Before we can better the world, we must first educate and better ourselves and each other.

Andrew Huynh Smoky Hill High School What are your plans after graduation?

After graduation, I plan on attending the University of Colorado-Boulder to study aerospace engineering What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

I remember going to my first online Theory of Knowledge class shortly after the world went into a shutdown. Deviating from our normal curriculum, we began to tackle more relevant social topics.

We discussed the political polarization that had impacted all of society, and the growing obviousness of racial and income inequality. Our teacher posed the question, “Do you think society is more divided or united since the pandemic started?” To my surprise, most of the class answered that we were more united. It was then, that I realized the importance of optimism. To be optimistic in the face of adversity is one of the most important lessons I’ve learned from the pandemic.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

Going forward, I’ve learned to be more empathetic towards others, remain steadfast in my

beliefs, and be more adaptable to unpredictable situations. In a year filled with social unrest, my constant exposure to racially motivated crimes in the Asian and African American community has made me far more empathic to those who are subjected to the evils of racism and hatred on a daily basis. I’ve also learned that to create real change in this world, I need to hold strong in my beliefs and not waver in the face of disagreements.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

The mission of the class of 2021 is simple. In just this one short year, we’ve witnessed political chaos unfold and social injustice activate the voices of millions, all in the middle of a pandemic. I believe the class of 2021 has made it obvious that we are not bystanders to history, but a class that gets involved and makes change happen. Whether it’s through social media to spread awareness on the inequalities of our society, to attending protests to make our voices heard, the mission that’s before the class of 2021 is to fight in the face of injustice and take control of the future that’s before us.

Throughout my high school career I was very involved in the performing arts, especially the musicals here at Heritage including “Beauty and the Beast,” “Spamalot,” and “Guys and Dolls.” I was also heavily involved in choir and was able to sing in Continental League Choir.

This year I was able to participate in Mr. Eagle which was an amazing experience, full of pretty outstanding gentlemen.

Outside the walls of Heritage, I play piano and take lessons which has always been one of my biggest interests and lifelong passions. Additionally, during my time at Heritage I co-founded an online apparel business dedicated to supporting unique nonprofits, with the hope of making this world a little bit brighter.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

In the beginning of the pandemic I found myself wanting to get out of the house (in a safe manner) and wanting to help people. In this, I was able to volunteer for Meals on Wheels and deliver meals to those in need. Community service fulfilled both wants and gave me a sense of purpose. I realized that helping those around me is something that needs to be done in day to day life not only in a pandemic.

I believe that my graduating class’ mission is inclusion in all aspects of life. As a class we are determined to make everyone feel welcomed and celebrated for who they are. It is important not only to me but also to the graduating class because everyone deserves a seat at the table. Their voices deserve to heard and everyone deserves to be represented and respected.

After graduation I will be attending the University of Colorado-Boulder for business and computer science in hopes to gain important knowledge and skills to grow and develop my business.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

Although this pandemic involved a great deal of difficulty, it was also an eye-opening season. What started as a normal year quickly took a turn. Plans were changed, lives were shaken, and most of us were left with a lot more time than we anticipated. While initial-

ly this was shocking, what seemed even more shocking was the beauty in the change of pace. My seemingly rushed year turned into a season of reflection. I realized that I was already where I wanted to be at this moment in time, and it took a change in pace in order to step back and truly appreciate where I was. And don’t get me wrong, there is no denying that the year was filled with difficulty for all of us, but this small time in my life taught me that throughout the difficulty there is always something to be thankful for.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

Grateful, persevering, and kind.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

I believe that our class has a great amount of compassion for one another and when brought into the world, could make it a better place. Each of us are very unique and we may not know exactly what each person is going through, but I do know that a small act of kindness can cause ripples of healing, and maybe that’s what the world needs. As unique as we all are, we are all connected, and regardless of the circumstances or our distance apart, we can all take the time to show how much we matter to each other. I believe we all have a gift to share with someone that might just make their day a little better and our world a little brighter.

Aubrey Weaver Heritage High School Tell us a little about your high school career: Clubs, sports, activities and things you participated in during high school.

My favorite extracurriculars at school have included being a member on the speech and debate team all four years, this past year as cocaptain. I have also been a member of the student government all four years. I have been a National Honor Society member and Heritage Ambassador the past two years. I have been on the girls’ golf team since my sophomore year. Outside of school my favorite activities have been the South Suburban Parks and Rec Youth Commission, where I was a member for five years, three as secretary and one as chair.

I have also worked as a waitress at Wind Crest retirement center for three years.

What are your plans after graduation?

I plan to attend the University of Vermont in the fall. I am majoring in political science and part of UVM’s Social Science Scholars program.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

On May 2, 2020, my family had a little “Prom at Home.” It would have been really easy for me to spend the night that

would have been my school’s prom lamenting the fact it was taken from me or that I’d been wronged, but I didn’t. Instead, my family got dressed up for the first time since the lockdown and put on a mix of music that was to all of our liking and spent a few hours making the most of it. Now I can remember that night for the experience I did have and not the one I didn’t. What this ultimately taught me about life is that sometimes things won’t go my way, but what’s more important is what I make of it. Sometimes you have to put up Christmas lights in May and dance it out!

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

My outlook going forward is perseverant, hopeful, and adaptable. Perseverent because it’s impossible to know what might come our way in the next four years — or four decades — so it’s important to remind ourselves that not everything will be smooth sailing but, with the proper determination, anything is possible! I am hopeful because, honestly, I have to be. My graduating class’s last “normal” month was February of our junior year, so I am clinging to hope knowing that it can really only get better from here. Adapt-

able because if we have learned anything from this pandemic it’s that sometimes, as a group, we need to be able to adjust really quickly to what life throws at us. Graduating and heading to college out of state — and away from my home and comfort zone — is going to be one of the biggest adjustments of my life and adaptability and flexibility will be critical.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

I have noticed in my graduating class an overwhelming sense of compassion. Within our group, I think there is an increased culture of open-mindedness, acceptance, and understanding that we can bring to the world.

Growing up amidst active shooter drills, increased mental health awareness, global economic crises, social networking, Black Lives Matter, and greater knowledge and acceptance of sexual orientations and gender identities, I think we have developed the skill of valuing one another sincerely and unconditionally because we understand the preciousness of life. Our mission going forward should bring the compassion we have shown one another as peers to our larger communities — locally, nationally, and globally. After a trying 2020, we can work to bring love and kindness to a world that really needs it.

What are your plans after graduation?

After graduation, I am going to attend CU Boulder. Although I am not 100% certain regarding what I want to major in right now, I’ve narrowed down the options to either marketing, language, or a teaching license for history. Additionally, if COVID-19 is properly handled by the summer, I hope to find opportunities to help others learn English.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

The most memorable moment I have from this pandemic is my first walk through the hallway after going from a remote to hybrid learning schedule. There was a churn in the hallways of excitement, and nervousness; sights of both smiles and furrowed eyebrows. As I walked through the hallways, I was excited to be back at home base. Nervous that I would get sick, but thrilled I could see my friends and teachers. I soon realized that not everyone felt this way. Some were scared for the lives of their families. Some were scared for their own. The value I took from this single walk in the hallway, was to keep an open mind, ready to give compassion and understanding to those who needed it. Every single one of us in that building was feeling something, and we all had to work together to make sure that we could support each other through all the change.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

Zealous, anxious, committed What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

I see my graduating class’s mission to better the world by demonstrating that resilience can overcome adversity.

My class lost fellow students to devastating tragedies both before and during the pandemic. We experienced uncertainty in our lives, education, and even in our futures because of the pandemic and general civil unrest in our country. Despite these adverse conditions, we have learned, and demonstrated both to ourselves and others, that if we show up and give our best effort success remains possible. I believe our graduating class will put to good use this grit and dedication to making the most of any situation or opportunity they encounter.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

A memorable moment that I experienced during the pandemic was during my school’s hybrid/online learning schedule, specifically, when my IB class created thank-you cards for all of our teachers. Seeing how eager my peers were to participate and show their gratitude towards our teachers, and them emotionally appreciating our gesture. This experience opened my eyes. It made me realize how grateful I am to be involved in such a community that is genuinely kind and appreciative of one another.

This experience showed me that many of us — all of us, are capable of being grateful,

understanding, and empathetic to one another regardless of our problems, and should strive to let others know how appreciated they are if you haven’t told them yet.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

Concerned, daring/audacious, and curious What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

Our class’s mission, naturally, is to better the world by taking strides to better the communities that surround us; we hope to do so by making society more inclusive, appreciative, and knowledgeable. Although I can’t exactly speak for my entire class, I know that every one of my peers will take steps into the unknown, to address issues that are important to us and those after us. My class will be the ones to better the world, by helping solve issues regarding environmental dangers, governmental policy, and cultural indifference. Regardless of whether we can solve these issues in our generation, we will ensure that they will be solved, by carrying on this knowledge and guiding the next generation to create a better world.

Zack Leaf Littleton High School What are your plans after graduation?

I will be heading to the University of Colorado-Boulder to attend their College of Engineering and Applied Science’s mechanical engineering program.

What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

During the pandemic, I was able to use my interest in mountain biking to support communities that were hit extremely hard by coronavirus. My teammates and I did a 100-mile bike-a-thon to raise money towards COVID relief for the Navajo Nation and White Mountain Apache tribes. Through this effort, we were also able to bring attention to family and friends about how various communities were being disproportionately impacted by the pandemic. This situation helped highlight for me how even when you feel overwhelmed by your circumstances, there are still actions you can take that can make a difference. The experience also put

my own situation and struggles during the pandemic into perspective, making me recognize all I had to be thankful for. The realization that you can use your interests and activities you enjoy to positively impact others gave me a feeling of control and balance during this unpredictable time.

What three adjectives describe your outlook going forward?

Hopeful — Looking forward I am hopeful because we are coming out of the pandemic and we have seen how the world can quickly pull together to develop vaccines. This makes me more hopeful that we can take on and solve other major issues facing the world.

Impatient — Although I am hopeful about our ability to resolve certain issues facing our country and the world, I am impatient because it can feel like change is not happening fast enough.

Adaptable — If there is one thing the pandemic has shown me, it is the importance

of being flexible, resilient and adaptable, because you never know what will be thrown your way.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

I believe that my generation is being faced with some unprecedented global issues like climate change, the refugee crisis, and disinformation and it will be up to us to find long-term solutions to address them. Luckily, even if my graduating class has some ideological differences, we are not as conflicted in areas where previous generations struggled, such as with diversity and the fact that the catastrophic weather events the world is currently experiencing are because of climate change. I also think many of us see how disinformation is a major problem that is weakening and dividing our country. An unstable and divided United States would be detrimental to, not better for the world. These are big problems, but I believe my classmates understand that by addressing these urgent issues all our lives will be improved, not just the lives of a few.

Alex Stevinson Regis Jesuit What are your plans after graduation?

Attending Notre Dame in the fall What memorable moment during the pandemic instilled a key value in you?

At 8 p.m. people across Colorado could be heard howling.

Initially, I thought that this was a strange phenomenon; perhaps, a product of everyone collectively losing their minds due to isolation or stress.

However, I later learned the baying was inspired by a tradition that had taken hold in Italy and Spain. Much like the balcony applause, Coloradoans were saluting the healthcare workers and their selfless acts.

By nature, we are social creatures, which I believe is one thing that makes this pandemic so difficult. This quirky tradition allowed people to be part of something larger than themselves, while also, paying homage to the men and women who placed themselves at increased risk. The nightly howls reminded me that COVID-19 will be a battle won

through compassion, community, determination, respect, and responsibility.

What do you see as your graduating class’s mission to better the world?

I believe my class’s mission is to collaborate with one another. Our class is graduating high school in a rather tumultuous year, and we face obstacles of many different varieties during this critical point in our lives. I hope that our class will draw closer together as a result of this year, rather than being driven apart. The world is often plagued with hate, division, and indifference. I believe that it is our mission to acknowledge the harm caused by such forces, and recognize that we cannot combat them effectively if we harbor them ourselves. While the obstacles that we face are large, one lesson that this year has taught me is how effective people can be when they are united by a common goal. Whatever the threat we face, I believe that it is the mission of our class to face adversity together.

Cherry Creek coach Marc Johnson, back left, became Colorado’s all-time winningest baseball coach on May 12 with 808 victories when the Bruins rallied to beat Grandview, PHOTO BY JIM BENTON 6-5, in nine innings.

Marc Johnson’s teams at Cherry Creek have won a lot of baseball games.

Johnson is now the winningest baseball coach in Colorado.

He set the record on May 12 when Creek rallied to defeat Grandview, 6-5, in nine innings which was the 808th win for Johnson as he surpassed the previous high of 807 victories by Eaton’s Jim Danley.

“I’ve had a good run,” said Johnson.

Cherry Creek collected a 7-4, eightinning win over Grandview on May 13 and pounded Eaglecrest, 10-0, on May 15.

After the mercy rule victory over

Eaglecrest on May 15, Johnson’s record was 810-205 in 48 seasons as the Bruins’ head coach and it should be noted that the baseball season was cancelled last spring because of COVID. “Obviously it feels great,” admitted Johnson. “I never have played a game, so I have great great fans and great administration. Even this year’s team is learning and working to get better. I couldn’t be more pleased. It’s been very exciting. The team has showed some grit.

Out deal is we are trying to continually improve.”

Johnson has been a coach at Creek for 50 years. He was the head boys soccer coach from 1971-1999 and won five state titles in his 28-year reign.

He as an assistant baseball coach in 1972 and become head coach in 1973. Johnson’s teams have won 32 league crowns, eight state champions and have been the state runnerup six times.

That trip down to Colorado Springs that used to be a pleasant outing turned out to be upsetting for south metro volleyball teams who journeyed to the Broadmoor World Arena for the single elimination, eight-team girls state volleyball tournament.

Four teams from the south metro schools lost in the first round on May 12 and only Grandview advanced.

The Wolves upset top-seeded Mountain Vista, 3-1, in a first round encounter. Grandview notched a come-from-behind, 3-2, semifinal victory over Columbine on May 13 but lost 3-1 to Rampart in the Class 5A championship match.

Grandview, the No. 8 seed, was the surprise team in the tournament as Mountain Vista, Cherry Creek, Legend and Class 3A Lutheran all fell in first round matches.

Legend’s Rylie Kadel (6) congratulates teammate Peyton Dunn (2) during the Titans first round state volleyball tournament match against Rampart on May 12 at the Broadmoor World Arena in Colorado Springs.

Previously unbeaten Mountain Vista lost its only game of the season in the opening match of the tournament on May 12 as Grandview (13-5) shocked the Golden Eagles.

The Wolves won the first set, 27-25, which set the tone for the match.

Vista captured the second set, 25-21, but Grandview notched 25-17 and 25-15 wins in the last two sets to advance into the semifinals.

“We just didn’t have it,” said Vista coach Doug Schafer whose team finished with an 15-1 record. “We definitely wanted it. We had energy but we were just tight.

We were just off. Grandview played well.

“We got 14 people here with the COVID and all the quarantines and stuff. We were undefeated until now.

We made some history with something that nobody has done, league (Continental) champs and being undefeated. So that part was pretty good, but it just didn’t go our way against Grandview.”

Fourth-seeded Columbine eliminated No. 5 Cherry Creek in another first-round match. The Bruins won the second set, 25-21, winning the last four points but that was the only time Creek got into a flow. The Rebels took the first set, 25-21, and the third and fourth sets with scores of 25-14 and 25-22.

Carter Booth had 14 kills and a 56 percent kills percentage for the Bruins (15-2) while Anna Van Wyk had 15 digs and 30 assists.

Legend, the seventh seed in the tournament, lost 3-0 to Rampart as the Rams swept all three sets, 25-17, 25-15 and 25-20.

Rylie Kadel and Peyton Dunn were the leaders for the Titans. Kadel had 10 kills and 10 digs while Dunn finished with nine digs and 23 assists.

“Rampart came out really well,” said Legend coach Audri Marrs after the loss which gave the Titans a final record of 10-4. “They had some great hitters. They played really well. Things just didn’t go our way.”

Lutheran, the sixth seed in the 3A tourney, played tough, hung in against No. 3 Sterling and won the first set, 25-17. However, the Tigers pulled out narrow 25-20, 25-22 and 25-23 wins in the final three sets.

The Lions were ahead, 19-18, in the fourth set but Sterling won seven of the next 11 points.

Audrey Brgoch had 14 kills for the Lions, Cass Norton five blocks, Bella

Vezzani had 25 digs and Sabrina King 14 assists as Lutheran wound up with a 11-4 record for the season.

“Sterling was a quality team but we kept fighting throughout,” said Lutheran coach Alicia Kidston. “I feel there were times that we didn’t take care of a bunch of little points that could have given us a little momentum.

“I so proud of the team. It was an interesting year obviously. They worked hard all season long and battled through adversity. We had a lot of injuries but our seniors are tremendous.”

COACH FROM PAGE 25

Cherry Creek coach Marc Johnson became Colorado’s all-time winningest baseball coach on May 12 with 808 victories when the Bruins PHOTOS BY JIM BENTON rallied to beat Grandview, 6-5, in nine innings.

played in a game so these guys deserve all the accolades,” said Johnson. “I’m probably the luckiest guy in the world coaching. I’ve had guys coach under me that had chances to take head coaching jobs and they said, ‘no I’m going to stay here.’”

Johnson is 76 years old and has to keep answering the question of how long he will continue to coach.

“I still have an amazing passion for the game,” he pointed out. “I’ve always felt my calling was this, and I was suppose to work with kids and teach them the game. The bottom line is you can have an effect on people’s lives just by teaching them the game.

Through the game you teach them what hard work means and what continually try to improve means. You teach them some character and how to handle tough times.

“I still absolutely love the game. I get asked every year, ‘is this it, is this it?’ I say I’m going to evaluate at the end of the year.”

In the meantime, Creek is off to a 4-1 start prior to a May 17 game.

“This has been exciting,” continued Johnson. “I told the kids, just prove to me that you are tying to get better. That’s all I care.

Cherry Creek coach Marc Johnson points out a ground rule during a recent pre-game meeting with umpires. Johnson became Colorado’s alltime winningest baseball coach on May 12 with 808 victories.

If we win, we win but we’re going to go out and play the best we can.

“I’ve had real good response from the players this season. They were so excited about the win the other day (May 12). It was crazy. It looks like a big individual accomplishment but I’ve always been a team guy. I tell the players ‘a better you makes a better we.’”
