Littleton fire transition wraps up South Metro takes over with new year, handoff going well, officials say

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If all goes according to plan, Littleton residents won’t realize their fire protection service has changed at all.

That was the message from local officials as Littleton prepared to hand over firefighting duties to South Metro Fire Rescue at the beginning of 2019.

“It’s going to be pretty seamless,” said Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman. “Most of the firefighters will be staying in the same firehouses. You’ll get the same response on Jan. 1 that you did on Dec. 31.”

Voters in November approved a measure that would include the City of Littleton within the boundaries of South Metro Fire Rescue, a large consolidated district that already provides firefighting service to much of the south Denver-area suburbs.

Littleton’s two longtime fire partners, the Littleton Fire Protection District and the Highlands Ranch Metro District, are also joining South Metro. The dissolution spells the end of Littleton Fire Rescue, which dates to 1890.

Homeowners previously covered by Littleton Fire Rescue will see a tax increase as a result of the move, though residents of Littleton proper won’t see a change until 2020.

MY NAME IS

Denise Wideen left Las Vegas for Littleton and works as a substitute teacher.

DAVID GILBERT

DENISE WIDEEN

Mom and teacher grew up in Las Vegas Leaving Las Vegas I moved here from Las Vegas, Nevada in the summer of 2014.

My husband and I have three daughters.

Growing up in Las Vegas was sort of crazy. I grew up with a single mom who was a cocktail waitress on the strip. She was friends with mobsters — it was a crazy place, but it was still a small town back then.

Casino nights It was fun to play in the desert as a kid, but once I became a parent I started wanting more. The only big industries there are construction and the casinos. My goal was never to work in a casino, but after college I had to work in a casino restaurant.

In a casino, you never see a clock, because they want you to forget how long you’ve been there. The air is disgusting. It’s loud, it’s smoky, they’re not a great environment, but people love them.

The price of progress Life in Littleton is great, but it’s pretty expensive here. My husband and I have to work a lot. We have a kid in college, one plays sports, the other is an artist. We don’t have the money for the things we want to do. We don’t go skiing and we haven’t been to a Broncos game.

I work at the Littleton Museum on the weekends, and during the week I’m a substitute teacher in Englewood and Littleton.

Teaching and learning Substitute teaching is a hard gig. I do high school. Once the kids get to know me, they think I’m fair. I respect them. I don’t walk in and start barking orders. I build a relationship with them.

I just got my teaching degree, so hopefully next year I’ll be a full-time, real-live teacher.

Stories of the year in the south metro area

A look back at the news events that shaped 2018

BY CHRIS ROTAR CROTAR@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The year began with mourning.

On the last day of 2017, Douglas County Sheriff ’s Deputy Zackari Parrish, 29, was fatally shot by a man authorities believe was mentally ill at an apartment complex in Highlands Ranch. Matthew Riehl, 37, also wounded four law enforcement officers and two civilians before being shot to death by members of the Parrish regional SWAT team, ac-

cording to the sheriff ’s office.

By New Year’s Day, details would emerge about Riehl, a military veteran and lawyer who waged what Sheriff Tony Spurlock called “an ambush-type of attack” on Parrish and the other officers.

At the same time, grief over the loss of Parrish, a husband and father of two young children, gripped the community. His funeral on Jan. 5 drew law enforcement personnel from around the nation. The procession that preceded it drew hundreds, maybe thousands, of community members, who lined roadways to pay their respects to the Parrish family and to show support for law enforcement.

During the funeral service, Spurlock spoke proudly of Parrish, whom the sheriff said remained calm and compassionate as he offered to help the

“It’s up to us to remember him and to be like him,” Spurlock said of the fallen deputy.

The following is a look at some of the other stories that helped shape 2018 in the south metro Denver area, as chosen by editor Chris Rotar, with input from the reporting staff.

It was among the first major decisions for the current school board, which had seen a power shift in the November 2017 election. Seven likeminded members now sat on the board after voters said no to candidates who espoused reform policies that stirred controversy in the district for years.

Tucker’s long career in education has included jobs as a classroom teacher and principal. He came to Douglas County from Princeton City Schools in Cincinnati, where he was named National Superintendent of the Year by the American Association of School Administrators in 2016.

“I’ve enjoyed all my jobs, but being able to work with young people on dayto-day basis and seeing them mature is what really excites me,” Tucker told Colorado Community Media after taking over the post during the summer.

No Redbarre, after all The announcement heralded a major economic boon to the south metro area and beyond.

In August 2017, media and technology company Redbarre publicized plans to build a $1 billion campus in Parker that would create roughly 4,000 jobs. The campus was touted as a place where, among other things, production could take place for film and television.

The announcement was made to much fanfare on the steps of the state Capitol, with Gov. John Hickenlooper and officials from the town and Doug-

las County in attendance.

A litle more than half a year later, those plans for the Compark area in the northwestern part of Parker were no more.

In April, Redbarre said through a spokesman that it had run into an impasse with the landowner and would look to build its 68-acre campus elsewhere. As of late December, it was not known where the campus would be built.

Fatal flood in Englewood A devastating thunderstorm slammed parts of the metro area the evening of July 24, packing powerful winds, hail and heavy rain that fell so hard and so quickly that flooding hit pockets of Englewood and Littleton.

Englewood was hit particularly hard, as rivers flowed down city streets and flooding in one neighborhood hit with fatal force. In the 4600 block of Acoma Street, Rachael Marie Haber, 32, was trapped in a basement apartment and

drowned. Residents of several other nearby homes were forced out by the flooding, left to wonder where they would go.

One Acoma Street resident said the storm started out like many that time of year, “like a basic summer storm.”

“But it rolled in so hard, so fast . . . it was flooded in a matter of 15 to 20 minutes,” Isaac Maldonado said.

Democrats rise in Arapahoe Five-term Congressman Mike Coffman was vulnerable this time around, pundits said. But that had been predicted before, and yet the Republican from Aurora always emerged with a November victory.

This time was indeed different. Democrat Jason Crow, also of Aurora, unseated Coffman in the 6th Congressional District, capitalizing on what some political Coffman experts called backlash

against President Donald Trump and his policies. Coffman had held the seat in the district known for its racial and ethnic diversity since 2008. The district includes parts of three counties, but the bulk of it is in Arapahoe County, including Aurora, Centennial and Littleton.

Coffman had publicly put distance between himself and Trump since 2016, but it wasn’t enough as a blue wave hit Arapahoe County — a place that had long been thought of as purple but which often voted red, even as Democrats began to soundly outnumber Republicans in recent years.

Time away from business is a As the doldrums of winter settle in to Colorado, I tend to start dreaming of far off sandy beaches and new exploration. I know I’m not the only one. Travel is a #1 goal Nelisha among my clients Firestone and for good reason: It’s healthy to unplug, relax, and recover. This is essential for business owners, and yet, few of us make the time to do it. Why is that?

“Someone just quit”, “it’s my busy season”, “I just lost my biggest client”, “business is down”… sound familiar? These problems haunt business owners, keeping many tied to their desk and even more to their phones. According to Glassdoor, the majority of workers use only 54% of their vacation time, and more than 66% work and check in with the office while on vacation. I bet numbers for entrepreneurs are even worse. Time

away from the business tends to be a wise investment on many fronts.

Consider this:

1

Travel makes you a better problem solver - Absent of constant stimuli, the brain tends to work on existing problems. Getting away will help you clear your mind which leads to better conflict resolution skills.

2

Travel encourages perspective – To own a business and create value for others is a great asset to be thankful for. In the daily grind of owning a business it’s easy to lose sight on why you did this to begin with. Stepping out of it allows you to see the broader picture of your life, where you are and where you want to go.

3

Travel lets your team work without you – When the boss is away, the staff will play… or they’ll work more efficiently without you dumping more on their desk.

them a chance to get caught up, but it allows you to see how well your business runs without you, a key element of a good business valuation when it comes time to sell.

4

Travel encourages creativity - Creativity is hard to manufacture on demand.

It needs space and time. It needs new input, inspiration, and fun.

Traveling will allow you that time to step back and see your business in a whole new light.

Travel isn’t just an option, it’s a necessity. Whether you work for yourself or someone else, find the time to travel and you’ll be well

rewarded.

state House District 37, which largely is made up of Centennial.

“I’d say (the blue wave) hit harder than we expected it to,” said Rich Sokol, chairman of the Arapahoe County Republican Party.

More money for schools Voters approved funding measures for schools in the Douglas County, Littleton and Elizabeth districts in the November election.

• The Douglas County School District saw two measures pass: a $250 million bond and a $40 million mill levy override. The bond measure will fund urgent building needs, among other things, while the MLO will go toward school programming and pay raises for teachers and staff.

• Voters in the Littleton Public Schools district said yes to a $298 million bond measure that will largely be spent on rebuilding many of the district’s schools.

• A $1.59 million mill levy override gained approval in the Elizabeth School District. A major chunk of that will be used to give raises to teachers in a district that has lagged behind other area districts in teacher pay for years.

Fatal fire in Littleton On a frigid Saturday morning, as Thanksgiving approached, residents of a Littleton apartment building for seniors awoke to a fire that would prove to be a nightmare for weeks.

The Nov. 17 fire at the Windermere apartments on South Datura Street was contained to a first-floor unit, but smoke made its way throughout the five-floor building and asbestos was stirred up, officials said. The resident of the apartment in which the fire started, Michael Craig Mitchell, 70, died. More than a dozen other people were injured. The fire was ruled accidental, but the specific cause had not been released as of late December.

Some residents spent nights on cots at a nearby shelter, some stayed in hotels and others with family, but for weeks, all were left without the majority of their belongings or any idea of when they would be able to return home.

On Dec. 3, all of the building’s 163

residents learned the building was ruled uninhabitable and they would have to move out, a process that started nearly two weeks later, as Christmas approached. For some, this was the second time in 2 1/2 years they were evicted from the same complex — a fire forced all residents out of its other tower in 2016.

A cold case A suspect’s arrest in December 2017 inspired hope of justice among friends and family members of Randy Wilson, a Kiowa teacher who was found dead, believed by authorities to have been murdered, in 2010. But a year later, the case turned cold once more.

On Dec. 3, the murder charge against

Dan Pesch, 35, was dismissed. Prosecutors said they no longer believed they could convince a jury that Pesch was guilty.

In 2017, Pesch had told authorities he killed Wilson. He later said he was lying, and police records show that Pesch had falsely confessed to crimes in the past. Meanwhile, evidence failed to make a compelling case against Pesch. Testimony from investigators showed that his confessions didn’t match the crime scene and DNA tests failed to connect him to crucial pieces of evidence.

District Attorney George Brauchler said his office remains steadfast in hopes of convicting a killer in the case.

“Someone out there hasn’t been held accountable,” Brauchler said. “I want to bring justice on behalf of Mr. Wilson and his family, and that hasn’t been done yet.”

South Denver Cardiology are industry leaders in PFO diagnosis and treatment SPONSORED CONTENT

South Denver Cardiology, in Littleton, is a leader in treating and monitoring patients who have problems related to Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) because they are constantly involved in research, trial studies and work to provide patients with the latest treatment options.

More than a quarter of the U.S. population has a hole in the heart.

For most, a hole causes no adverse health effects. In fact, the vast majority of those with a PFO will never even Dr. Lee MacDonald know its there.

There are two kinds of holes in the heart. One is an atrial septal defect (ASD), and the other is a PFO. Both are technically holes in the wall of tissue between the left and right upper chambers of the heart.

An ASD is a failure of the septal tissue to form between the atria. An ASD is something a person is born with. An ASD is larger than a PFO and presents with more symptoms.

A PFO occurs after birth when the foramen ovale fails to close. PFO expert, Dr. Lee MacDonald of the South Denver Cardiology Associates, described a

PFO as a paper-thin flap in the heart.

MacDonald said they often suspect a PFO when a younger patient has a stroke.

“You get a 30 to 40-year-old having a stroke and that raises a lot of warning signs,” MacDonald said. “A PFO is essentially a flap in the heart that at times is closed and at other times is open.

With some bad luck, the flap can be open when a clot moves through.”

Symptoms or health concerns come up when the blood leaking between the right atrium to the left contains a blood clot. For someone without a PFO, the lungs can withstand a clot and the body can deal with it. However, when a small clot is passed through a PFO, going through the side of the heart that pumps blood into the body, it can

travel to the brain, impacting speech, causing blindness and stroke-like symptoms.

At one time, MacDonald said the only way to treat a PFO was through open-heart surgery. This required opening the patient up, long recovery time and a lot more risk.

However, through research and participating in the latest treatment options, South Denver Cardiology has a team of experts that have been providing a catheter-based procedure for more than a decade.

The catheter-based procedure allows the cardiologist to slowly move a long, thin, flexible hollow tube from a small incision in the inner thigh, advancing it slowly up to the heart.

“At the end of this procedure pa-

tients literally just need a band-aid,” MacDonald said. “We have seen close to a 99 percent success rate with this procedure, and we significantly improve a patient’s chances of not having anymore strokes or issues related to the PFO.” While the catheter-based procedure has proven successful, MacDonald said it is only approved for younger patients in the U.S. who have suffered from a stroke and a PFO is the suspected culprit.

“Not every stroke case is caused by a PFO, but we are finding more and more that it is the case in a large percentage of young patients,” MacDonald said.

“At South Denver Cardiology we are leaders in treating PFOs because we pride ourselves on being a part of the research, and staying up on anything that helps our patients get the best and most personalized treatment options.”

Therapy campus will target dementia Alumia Institute to offer music, cognitive, nutritional methods in Centennial area

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A one-stop shop for those facing the early stages of dementia is about to open in the Centennial area.

“There’s nothing like this in the state of Colorado from beginning to end: Our testing, therapeutic services, meals,” said Kathi Miracle, executive director at Alumia Institute.

Dementia is a decline in ability to think, remember and reason, impacting a person’s daily life and activities.

Alumia Institute is set to open at 9800 E. Geddes Ave. in the Centennial area in January, bringing a wide range of therapy to help slow the pace of cognitive decline.

The 15,000-square-foot campus offers a social, daytime setting where members can participate in therapies involving art and music, physical activity, brain-training and computer games — and even eat a diet designed to help brain activity.

“Every journey with dementia is different and we understand that,” Miracle said in a news release. “As our members’ needs change, so do their therapies. We are here to help guide, support and educate our members and

ELLIS ARNOLD their families.”

People with early-stage dementia who are no longer working may be used to work hours, and Alumia is open from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Monday through Friday, Miracle said.

Therapies are provided from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., including snacks and meals, the release said. The campus environment allows members to remain living at home or in an independent living community, the release said.

Alumia is set to be operational Jan. 2 and hold a grand opening Jan. 16, said Jake Rost, its chief operating officer.

The campus system is designed with its members in mind: Room signs are color-coded to help members find where they’re going. Staff who oversee members will wear shirts with colors that help coordinate with their groups, Miracle said.

A brain training room offers a

program with computer games that help functions such as memory and navigation, and members also can access the program at home. Periodic evaluations will look at members’ brain activity progress.

A music therapy room offers touchscreen tablets with headphones and a few instruments including a keyboard. And in the full kitchen and dining area, members can benefit from a nutritional plan by well-known area chef Daniel Asher, based on what’s called the MIND diet — Mediterranean DASH Diet Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay — and findings in the diet-dementia field, the release said.

Located near the Inverness area in unincorporated Arapahoe County — just outside Centennial — the campus is accessible from Interstate 25 and East Dry Creek Road.

“It’s right in the heart of our demographic,” Rost said. It sits in an area of metro Denver that will allow the campus to reach many people with early-stage dementia, Rost said.

Alumia’s therapy program, called Kynemics, addresses four areas — physical, cognitive, nutrition and social — aimed at stimulating brain function. It’s based on recent research, including the conclusion that it may be possible to prevent cognitive decline using a multi-pronged intervention for older, at-risk individuals, according to the news release.

F

un-seekers didn’t need to be pros — or even know how to skate — to enjoy themselves at The Cube ice skating rink to kick off the weekend before Christmas.

The rink at The Streets at SouthGlenn shopping center in Centennial saw dozens of skaters as the sun went down Dec. 21, holding hands, taking photos and — for the younger kids — inching along, supported by overturned plastic bins, to get in on the fun.

Amaura Mejia, 28, and Aaron Mejia, 32, who came from New York to visit family in the area, were among the skaters.

“It’s fun, lighthearted,” Amaura Mejia said as dusk fell on the holiday lights. “And festive.”

Families and friends go for a spin at The Cube ice-skating rink Dec. 21 at The Streets at SouthGlenn outdoor mall in Centennial. A few dozen skaters were going strong as the sun went down that holiday weekend.

Much of the work of integrating LFR is already done, said South Metro Fire Chief Bob Baker.

“We’ve worked so closely with Littleton for years anyway, so we had a strong working relationship going into this,” Baker said.

South Metro has offered jobs to LFR’s more than 160 employees, Baker said. The absorption of Littleton Fire Rescue brings South Metro’s staff to roughly 700 and creates the second-largest firefighting entity in the state after Denver Fire, Baker said.

Families and friends go for a spin at The Cube ice-skating rink Dec. 21 at The Streets at SouthGlenn outdoor mall in Centennial. A few dozen skaters were going strong as the sun went down that holiday weekend.

Littleton officially transferred ownership of its firehouses and fire trucks to South Metro at a December city council meeting.

Baker said South Metro’s operations and training teams have been hard at work integrating the two departments’ procedures and equipment.

Littleton’s fire trucks won’t be getting new paint jobs, Baker said, though they will likely get new decals at some point in 2019.

“We’re working on what the trucks in Littleton will say,” Baker said. “But we won’t repaint the trucks. We’d rather spend that money providing service to citizens.”

LFR, LFPD and Highlands Ranch will each get a newly created seat on South Metro’s Fire Authority board,

said board chair Laura Simon, bringing the total seats to 12. The arrangement will only be temporary, Simon said, until a redistricting effort brings the number of seats down to seven in 2020, when voters will select new representatives.

Brinkman will represent Littleton in 2019, Simon said. LFPD will be represented by Jim Albee, a member of the LFPD board, and Highlands Ranch will be represented by Renee Anderson, director of the Highlands Ranch Metro District board.

“I plan to represent the constituency of Littleton aggressively,” Brinkman said. “It’s important we retain a strong voice. We’re a big part of the South Metro group. I’ll work hard to be a liaison between South Metro, the

council and the citizens of Littleton.”

The transition has wrapped up nicely, said Littleton City Manager Mark Relph.

“When you have a unification process of this magnitude, there are a lot of details to iron out,” Relph said.

“It took a while to track down all the deeds and titles and untangle all the legal snags, but we got it done.”

Brinkman reflected on the passing of Littleton Fire Rescue into the history books.

“Once everything’s signed, sealed and delivered, you’ve got to acknowledge it’s the end of an era,” Brinkman said. “It’s the right thing to do and we’re going to be glad we did it, but there’s a melancholy about it. It’s kind of bittersweet.”

Construction resumes on Littleton shooting range Lawsuit settlement drops last barrier to Triple J project in SouthPark

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Construction has resumed on a shooting range in south Littleton, after the South Park Owners Association settled its ongoing lawsuit with Triple J Armory.

The settlement, the terms of which were not immediately available, drops the last legal barrier to the completion of the stalled shooting range under construction since early 2018 at 8152 Southpark Lane.

“It seems as though they’re going to try to be as friendly and neighborly as I guess we could hope for,” Pat Dunahay, the director of the South Park Owners Association, or SPOA, said of Triple J. The lawsuit alleged that Triple J failed to seek required approval through SPOA. The dismissal filing has not been filed with the Arapahoe County Court yet, according to a court administrator. SPOA was required to pay Triple J’s legal fees,

Dunahay said, though he declined to give a number.

Triple J’s owners could not immediately be reached for comment, but a post on the company’s Facebook page reads in part: “After months of red tape and bogus lawsuits, we can finally get back to construction! …[If] any of our `other’ fans are reading this, yes, we have a building permit, and no, you don’t need to call the city and complain.”

Triple J Armory, a family-owned gun store previously located in a smaller space on County Line Road, opened a retail store in the South Park business district in fall 2018, but their efforts to build a shooting range saw repeated delays.

The company began building the range without required city permits, and drew the ire of neighbors who said the business was incompatible with surrounding uses, including schools and a cohousing development.

City officials were powerless to withhold a business license for the range, said Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman, because shooting ranges are a permitted use in the site’s zoning.

New RTD fares, increased youth discount begin STAFF REPORT

Changes to the Regional Transportation District’s fares and pass programs that began Jan. 2 include the implementation of a youth fare that increases to 70 percent the discount offered to riders between 6 and 19 years old, RTD announced in a news release.

The new, age-based youth discount — no longer requiring enrollment in elementary, middle or high school — is one of several key changes that are now in effect.

Another new product is the threehour pass, enabling riders to travel for up to three hours in any direction within the fare category for which they have paid — for example, local or regional — replacing the one-way transfer or ticket.

New RTD fares also became effective Jan. 2. New full-price fares are: $3 for local; $5.25 for regional; and $10.50 for a trip to or from DIA, or for a regional day pass.

Riders who qualify for half-price discount fares include seniors (65 and older), individuals with disabilities and Medicare recipients. Proof of eligibility is required. RTD’s new half-price discount fares are $1.50 for

local; $2.60 for regional; and $5.25 for DIA trip or regional day pass.

Discounted fares for youths will increase to 70 percent. Proof of eligibility is required. RTD’s new youth fares are 90 cents for local, $1.60 for regional; and $3.20 for DIA trip or regional day pass.

A new low-income program set to begin in summer 2019 will provide a 40 percent discount to qualifying riders whose household incomes are at or below 185 percent of the federal poverty level. Interested customers will have to qualify and enroll in the program to receive the low-income fare.

EcoPass, Neighborhood EcoPass and CollegePass will continue to be offered and will be priced based upon trips taken. The 10-Ride ticket books and MyRide smart cards have been retained with discounts. Day and monthly passes and FlexPass have been retained. ValuPass has been discontinued, with the purchase of 12 monthly passes remaining an option for those who are interested.

More information is available by calling RTD Customer Care at 303299-6000 or visiting rtd-denver.com/ fares-2019.shtml.

Here’s hoping 2019 is a good year

Debbie Brinkman, mayor of Littleton 2019 will be my last year on council, and probably my final time being mayor in my life. I really want to be able to just enjoy it, and tie the bow on a number of things we’ve been working on. I want to get the Complan done.

We’ve got so many Brinkman good things going on, so I don’t want to have another damn fire.

I hope we have a great Western Welcome Week, Criterium, and summer concert series. This is a great time to be in Littleton and I’m glad I’m here.

Bob Baker, chief of South Metro Fire Rescue I’m thankful to the citizens of Littleton, Highlands Ranch, Columbine Valley, Centennial and Greenwood Village. They put their trust in our organization, and voted to become part of our family.

Recently I met with every single employee of Littleton Fire — nearly 170 people. They love Littleton, and take pride Baker and honor in serving citizens. They’re excited about unification.

My hope for the new year is that all of our folks go home to their families.

I hope the same thing for law enforcement — 2018 was a hard year, starting with Deputy Zack Parrish’s death.

My hope and prayer is no serious injuries to my people. I hope people in Littleton and surrounding area have a very blessed 2019, where they’re healthy and grow as people and enjoy families and friends. I hope there’s less strife in the new year.

concerns over noise, traffic and parking, Brinkman said.

The fracas is spurring change at the city, Brinkman said. City council is in the process of crafting an ordinance that would significantly raise the bar to approve future shooting ranges, including mandating public hearings, and the city is seeking to formalize its relationship with SPOA, requiring communication between the two entities before proposed projects in the business park are given the green light by the city.

In the meantime, Dunahay said he toured the under-construction shooting range, and was satisfied with the precautions being taken.

“I was pretty impressed with the level of security of the weapons and ammo,” Dunahay said. “We better get along with them. They’re not going away.”

C ol

The project drew scrutiny from the city, however, with staff mandating a variety of safety and security measures, according to documents published on the city website. The city issued a building permit for the shooting range in November, and Triple J picked up the permit in early December.

“I’m glad it’s over,” Brinkman said of the legal wrangling over the range. “We can move on and work together to get this done in the best way possible for all involved. We’ll be very watchful as they build this thing out.”

The city will keep a close eye on

I’m always hopeful that we can continue to be better at mental health interventions for kids. Hopefully with a new legislature and governor we’ll see efforts to fix some of our constitutional entanglements.

There’s more to Elvis than the same old song and dance QUIET DESPERATION

Craig Marshall Smith

E

lvis Presley died on August 16, 1977, a Tuesday, the day I received a call that changed my life. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be reading this.

I was living in Mesa, Arizona, and I was looking for a teaching job after my adjunct position ended at Arizona State.

I was called by a department chair and offered a full-time position at what was then a college in downtown Denver. I accepted over the phone, and then turned on the television.

Presley died at his home in Memphis, Tennessee. He was only 42.

I didn’t know what to think. As a musician, Presley was AWOL during my formative years of music awareness, the ones after he returned from military duty, and I mostly dismissed him.

By the 1970s he had become a caricature.

Impersonators now generally appear as the older, flamboyant Presley, the one I strongly dislike.

He was taking a lot of prescription drugs, he had gained a lot of

weight, and he was wearing capes and rhinestones.

He was forgetting lyrics on stage.

I am not sure where or when I heard about the recordings he made at Sun with Sam Phillips in Memphis, but they turned around my opinion. They continue to be the only ones I listen to.

There’s a new two-part Presley documentary that I initially watched with reluctance. However, it’s very well made and honest, and doesn’t swoon over Presley’s life.

Several voice-overs are provid-

ed by music producers and critics, and performers, like Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, Robbie Robertson and Emmylou Harris.

The comments by the performers are especially meaningful, because they are very insightful about, among other things, the control manager Colonel Tom Parker had over Presley.

I never knew that Presley deplored the movies he made as much as I did.

Lockheed Martin move to generate jobs Missile program consolidating operations at complex near Littleton STAFF REPORT

Portions of production for the Navy’s Fleet Ballistic Missile program will be relocated to Lockheed Martin Space headquarters in unincorporated Jefferson County, at the Wateron Canyon site southwest of Littleton.

The project will move portions of the program’s manufacturing capabilities and engineering positions across all disciplines, according to a news release. Lockheed Martin is pursuing local talent to staff a number of key roles, primarily in systems, electrical and mechanical engineering, project management and business operations.

“Lockheed Martin is a long-standing leader in Colorado’s aerospace industry. We are thrilled to welcome its Fleet Ballistic Missile program to our state, and in particular to Jefferson County,” Gov. John Hickenlooper said in a news release. “The addition of hundreds

Before he left for duty, Presley made a couple of decent films, but when he returned he was given mediocre scripts, mediocre budgets, and mediocre songs to sing.

The actors and actresses he worked with were rarely notable, except for Ann- Margret, and when the Colonel saw all of the attention she received after “Viva Las Vegas” was released, he made sure Presley didn’t work with her again.

I also didn’t know that Parker refused to permit Presley to perform outside of the United States, and he never did. Why? Because Parker was not a U.S. citizen, and thought he might not be allowed to re-enter.

Parker managed the career of one of music history’s most important individuals, and treated him like a brand.

Are there people who can help us?

Absolutely. Is there a timeline we should be setting? Of course. Are there specifics we need to describe when it comes to our goals and dreams? Without question. Should we have milestones along the way where we can measure our success? Definitely. Do we have the latitude to pivot and adjust based on what is happening during our relentless pursuit of our goals and dreams?

Yes, flexibility is necessary just as long as we don’t compromise the overall result we desire. Is there anyone else who can own our personal goals and dreams? No, absolutely not.

of highly skilled, high-paying jobs in support of this vital national security program offers Coloradans quality employment opportunities and advances Colorado’s reputation as Aerospace Alley.”

Jefferson County Economic Development Corp. worked on the expansion project in partnership with Jefferson County and the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade.

“We are excited to partner with Lockheed Martin to bring the Fleet Ballistic Missile program to unincorporated Jefferson County,” Jeffco Commissioner Casey Tighe said in the release. “This will bring many quality employment opportunities, with this long-standing aerospace leader, to our highly skilled local talent.”

“We appreciate the continued support from our partners at Jefferson County EDC and the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade. We are thrilled to expand our presence in the community and are eager to add exceptional, local talent to the Lockeheed Martin team,” Eric Scherff, vice president of Navy strategic programs at Lockheed Martin, said As Petty says near the end of Part II, Presley had become “Elvis”; he was no longer Elvis Presley.

Presley’s breakthrough years happened before I owned a radio, and by the time I caught up with him he was singing songs that didn’t do anything for me.

Springsteen said he couldn’t wait for Presley’s televised comeback special on June 27, 1968. Presley looked and sounded great, and he re-established himself as a significant performer again overnight.

But then, he began years of servitude in Las Vegas, and in less than 10 years he was dead.

It’s unimaginable what a life like Presley’s would be like. What it would do to an artist’s soul, and Presley had one.

Get yourself Presley’s Sun recordings. Hear?

in the release. “The Fleet Ballistic Missile program is a critical component of our nation’s strategic deterrent and working in close partnership with the Navy we remain committed to solving their most complex mission needs.”

Lockheed Martin has developed, built and sustained six generations of submarine-launched ballistic missiles under the Fleet Ballistic Missile program. The current generation of missiles, designated Trident II D5, are carried aboard the Navy’s Ohio-class submarines and make up the sea-based leg of the nation’s nuclear triad. They are also carried aboard the United Kingdom’s Vanguard-class submarine as that nation’s sole nuclear deterrent.

Lockheed Martin’s contribution to the Fleet Ballistic Missile program has been anchored in Sunnyvale, California, since its inception more than 60 years ago.

Lockheed Martin established opera-

tions in Jefferson County in 1955 at the request of the Air Force, which wanted its new rocket facility to be built inland where it would be less vulnerable to enemy submarine attacks. During this time, Industries for Jefferson County (now Jeffco EDC) was formed to attract the Glenn L. Martin Company to the country.

Today, Lockheed Martin is Jefferson County’s largest private-sector primary employer, with more than 6,200 employees.

Recently, the company broke ground on its new Gateway Center, which will be a $350 million, 266,000-square-foot satellite production facility. Upon completion, Lockheed Martin will have 3.5 million square feet of production, engineering, testing and office space at its 5,400-acre Waterton Canyon campus, making Jefferson County home to one of the largest satellite manufacturing centers in the world.

M

eant to be proactive, healthy and good for one’s well-being, New Year’s resolutions can be daunting, challenging, and most of the time don’t last long. According to Business Insider, 80 percent of New Year’s resolutions fail by February.

In 2019, 41 percent of Coloradans want to save money and 27 percent want to travel. The two New Year’s resolutions topped the list in a survey conducted by Offers.com,

TOP NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS IN COLORADO Offers.com, an online marketplace that offers coupons and specials for about 16,000 retailers and brands, tracks New Year’s resolutions trends across the country and by state.

Here’s a look at how Colorado are expressing their resolve for 2019 based on survey results.

an online marketplace that studies business trends. Next down the list were exercising more, getting a new job or hobby and finding love.

Reasons for giving up on these goals vary from feeling overwhelmed to absence of a plan to lack of support. But with the right mindset and a few tips from health and wellness experts, goals for the New Year can be achieved.

Give it time In an era of nonstop social media and virtual connectedness, instant gratification is oftentimes expected.

• 41 percent of people said their No.1 resolution is to save money.

• 27 percent of people said travel.

• 27 percent of people said exercise more or lose weight.

• 17 percent said get a new job or hobby.

• 12 percent said find love.

That can be a roadblock when completing a New Year’s resolution, said Dru Connolly, who runs the fitness department at the Highlands Ranch Community Association.

“It’s not something that’s going to happen quickly,” Connolly said.

“It takes a while to make it part of your lifestyle.”

She sees a surge in people exercising at HRCA’s four recreation centers in the first few weeks of the new year. Then the numbers tend to trickle off.

SEE RESOLUTIONS, P14

TIPS TO MAKE YOUR RESOLUTIONS STICK Set small, achievable goals throughout the year, instead of one overwhelming goal on Jan. 1.

Make resolutions that you think you can keep. If you want to exercise more, schedule three or four days a week at the gym instead

of seven. If you want to eat healthier, try to substitute dessert with something else you enjoy, like fruit.

Work toward changing one thing at a time to avoid feeling overwhelmed.

Consider joining a support group, such as a workout

class at a gym.

Remember that minor mistakes are completely normal. Don’t give up — recover from your mistakes and get back on track.

If you feel overwhelmed or unable to meet your goals on your own, consider

seeking professional help.

new year means exciting new opportunities, and Golden’s Miners Alley Playhouse is embracing new possibilities with its 2019 season.

“I am always looking for great plays that are COMING helmed by great directors.

I believe ATTRACTIONS that has been our formula for success at Miners Alley,” said artistic director Len Matheo.

The season begins at Miners, 1224 Washington Ave., with a pair of Clarke Reader Pulitzer winners: “Lost in Yonkers,” written by the legendary Neil Simon, and Thornton Wilder’s “Our Town.” Tony award-winner and modern musical classic “Once” will be coming to the stage in the fall.

Miners Alley will also be tackling contemporary society in a pair of premieres.

The latest from Josh Hartwell, a favorite figure in the metro area’s theatrical scene, is making its world premiere at Miners. “Queen of Conspiracy” tells the story of Mae Brussell, a conspiracy theorist and radio host during the 1960s and 1970s. The play examines the influence of conspiracy-theory culture on modern America.

Eric Coble’s “Fairfield” will make its regional premiere at the theater, and centers on Fairfield Elementary, a public school located in a diverse, liberal district. But when a young teacher’s misguided attempts at celebrating Black History Month take a hilariously dark turn, chaos erupts.

And as is tradition, the season closes with Miners Alley’s hilarious adaptation of “A Christmas Carol.”

“The 2018 season was our most celebrated season and we won more awards this past year than ever before,” Matheo said. “We expect 2019 to do just as well, if not better.

We are on a roll, and it’s only going to get more exciting.”

See stories inspired by the typewriter There is just something special about typewriters. These machines have retained an air of romance, despite going out of regular use decades ago.

People make documentaries and write books about them, and devoted fans still use them whenever they can.

Typewriters also inspire artists, as the latest Stories on Stage collaboration with the Buntport Theater Company exhibits. “A Typewriter Revolution” will be hosted at 1:30 and 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 12, at the Su Teatro Cultural and Performing Arts Center, 721 Santa Fe Drive in Denver.

Some of the pieces are written by members of the Denver metro area who entered their work in a selection process, and the results are both funny and thought-provoking.

It takes 21 days to form a habit, Connolly said. To fully adopt a lifestyle change takes about 60 days. Connolly encourages residents to stick with their exercise goals, even if it means starting with two to three workouts a week or a quick workout at home.

The American Psychological Association has similar advice. Start small, the association says. If the goal is to exercise more, schedule three or four days a week at the gym instead of seven.

If the goal is to eat healthier, replace dessert with something enjoyable like fruit, instead of attempting a restrictive diet.

National Western brings cultural heritage to Denver Signature Colorado event continues through more than two weeks of fun

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Again this year, many Colorado residents are gearing up for their participation in the National Western Stock Show.

The annual event is billed as one of the premier livestock shows, horse shows and rodeos in the nation.

It has been 113 years since the first National Western was held. Angus and breeding cattle begin their scheduled arrivals at the complex Jan. 8.

Activities pick up starting Jan. 10 and the schedule of events wraps up Jan. 27.

During that stretch of time about 750,000 people will arrive for the show. Many will be taking part in events including rodeo and equestrian judging and shows. There are stock show judging events and auctions for animals While entertainment draws a lot of attention, much of the event’s focus is on livestock. There are judging competitions for horses, cattle, sheep, swine, goats, llamas, bison, yaks, poultry and rabbits. Ten livestock associations hold their national shows at National Western. The Gold Trophy Bison Show is the only event of its type in the world.

There also are a number of livestock sales where millions of dollars change hands as prize animals are sold to new owners.

The first wave of the thousands of animals will begin arriving at the

The National Western Stock Show Kick-off Parade brings cattle to the streets of downtown Denver. This year’s parade is at noon Jan. 10.

COURTESY OF NATIONAL WESTERN STOCK SHOW National Western Stock Show complex as the New Year is ushered in because stabling the animals require coordination. Hundreds of animals come to the show and stable space is limited.

The outdoor cattle pens can be a temporary home for animals being shown or put up for auction or judged during the show. When it is time for them to be shown, auctioned or judged, the cattle are brought inside, filling the barns.

For example, the usual sequence of events preparing cattle for a show or auction begins in the barns, where each animal is washed and blow dried. Handlers usually then use clippers to smooth the coat before brushing and grooming each animal to look its best.

Once that breed’s shows are com-

Poster contest honors missing children across the country STAFF REPORT

Colorado fifth-grade students are asked to break out their crayons/ pencils/markers and creativity and enter this year’s edition of the Missing Children’s Day poster contest in honor of those missing across the country.

The Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is hosting a statewide poster contest as part of a national campaign sponsored by the United States Department of Justice (DOJ).

Every year, the CBI and DOJ commemorate the valiant and unselfish acts of the many organizations and individuals who bring our missing children home. Since 1983, May 25 has been designated as National Missing Children’s Day. The poster theme is “Bring Our Missing Children Home” and will feature the artistic talents of kids throughout the United States. All Colorado posters must be submitted to the CBI for judging by 5 p.m. Feb. 1. The national office

will not accept any entries. The poster representing the state of Colorado will be submitted to the national office.

The DOJ will announce the winner at the annual National Missing Children’s Day ceremony May 22 in Washington, D.C. The winner of the national contest, along with his or her teacher and parents, will attend this special ceremony.

In addition to the DOJ ceremony, the CBI will also recognize the top three Colorado students for their winning poster entries at an event this May. Submit posters to: CBI, Attn: Poster Contest, 690 Kipling St. Ste. 4000, Denver, CO 80215. Contact Analyst Jillian Ganley at 303-239-4459 or jillian. ganley@state.co.us for information or questions.

The complete packet of information can be found at www.colorado. gov/pacific/cbi/missing-childrenposter-contest. One single entry will be submitted to DOJ on behalf of the state of Colorado.

plete, the animals are either auctioned off or quickly loaded up to be taken home. Once the animals are all moved out of the barns, crews move in and clean the stalls to make them ready for the next occupants.

The National Western Stock Show is Colorado’s largest trade show.

The hall of education is filled with vendors offering items ranging from custom embroidered jackets to farm machinery. According to estimates the economic impact is about $115

million and the event generates about $6 million in local and state taxes.

The show events are spread among a number of facilities. Stock show activities are centered at the National Western Stock Show Arena and Hall of Education near 46th Avenue and Humbolt Street, the Events Center at 1515 E. 47th Ave. and the nearby Denver Coliseum. For information, tickets, the event schedule and event locations, call 303-297-1166 or go online to nationalwestern.com.

The Denver Coliseum is home to the National Western Stock Show Rodeo, the first event on the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association schedule, and show information states it is the richest regular season professional rodeos. Each rodeo performance features competition in bareback bronc riding, saddle bronc riding, bull riding, tie-down roping, steer wrestling, team roping and barrel racing, plus there are specialty acts booked to perform during breaks in the rodeo.

The rodeo events are in the Coliseum while, at the other end of the National Western complex, the Events Center will be equally busy as the site of horse competitions for a number of breeds and styles.

There will be shows and competitions as well as activities that include the Grand Prix jumping event, an evening of dancing horses and a daily schedule of riding and performance competitions.

Chaparral, Valor athletes share volleyball honors Julianna Dalton, Anna Davis named South Metro Players of Year

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Chaparral’s Julianna Dalton was switched this season from an outside hitter to the middle, the position that Valor Christian’s Anna Davis plays.

Dalton and Davis were standout volleyball players last season and helped their teams advance to the Class 5A state volleyball championship match.

Colorado Community Media has selected Dalton and Davis at the 2018 South Metro Co-Volleyball Players of the Year.

Dalton, a 6-foot-4 junior, led the Continental League with a .373 hitting percentage and was also the league leader with 126 blocks which was third in the state. She finished with 222 kills, a 49.0 kills percentage, 69 digs and 24 assists.

“I normally do not play middle,” said Dalton. “It’s not what I play in club. I played it my freshman year just because I really didn’t know what I wanted to do. Coach asked me if I wanted to play middle this season and I said sure simply because there was no one else.

“At the beginning I thought, `Oh my gosh, this is awful. I cannot do this. I can’t even get up on every block. I cannot close or whatever.’ But I really improved as a middle.”

She still prefers being an outside hitter.

“I still like outside,” she noted. “Middle definitely helps me with blocking. We have had club practices and after moving from middle to outside, blocking is 10 times easier because you are only in charge of two people instead of three. As the middle you have to block everyone and you are in charge of closing. It is just a more fas-paced game for a middle. You have to be up on every ball. “ Davis, a 6-1 junior who has committed to Tulane University, was up all season for Valor and a key reason the Eagles captured the state championships.

She led the 5A Jeffco League with a .473 hitting percentage. She had 243 kills and

a 55.5 kills percentage. She was the Jeffco leader with 114 blocks.

“I played well this year,” said Davis. “The main thing was I just focused on working hard being determined to be the hardestworking player on the court. It paid off because I was able to do things and push harder than I was able to do before in previous years.”

She feels blocking takes more skill than hitting.

“Blocking is definitely harder having to read the players on the other side of the net and reacting quickly to what they are doing and be able to get up strong and take about court and space away from them,” she continued. “Hitting is a lot of the same, smart placement and working hard to put the ball where you want it to go and a lot of that is the connection you have with your setters.”

Chaparral’s Julianna Dalton (19), above, and Valor Christian’s Anna Davis, at left, are the co-South Metro Volleyball Players of the Year.

Englewood girls roll over Lincoln with 51-19 victory

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Englewood girls basketball team scored first and often as they closed out the 2018 portion of their schedule with a 51-19 win over the Abraham Lincoln Lancers.

“This is a good way to close out the season before the holiday break,” Pirates coach Thomas Rode said after the game. “I felt tonight we played good team basketball and that is one of our team strengths. Everyone plays hard every night and you never know who is going to have a big game that night.

When someone does step up, everyone supports her, so I feel every game is a team win.”

The Dec. 20 win raises the team record to 6-3. The court now goes dark

for the holiday and the coach said they will not resume practice until early January, since they don’t play again until Jan. 15 when they go on the road to play Riverdale Ridge.

The Pirates got rolling early in the game against Lincoln, outscoring the Lancers 12-3 in the first quarter, and built on that advantage. Englewood scored double figures in each quarter.

Also, throughout the game, the Pirates combined their attack with a strong defense, as Lincoln’s highest number of points in a period came in the third quarter when the Lancers scored seven points.

Rode said Lincoln played strong defense early and the Pirates had problems scoring points at first.

“They did well defensively early but we adjusted and figured out what we

had to do to score points,” he said. “The adjustments we made including being more patient with the ball and taking better shots. The adjustments paid off for us.”

He said the 6-3 record is a product of the work the players put in.

“We played in summer leagues and went to a couple of camps,” he said.

“The girls continued to work hard in the fall, and all that effort is paying now paying off in the games we play.”

According to statistics, for the first eight games the team is scoring 35.8 points and pulling down 38.8 rebounds.

The individual statistics for the first eight games show junior Lily Johnson leads the team in scoring with 68 points and teammate Diamante Martinez has scored 55 points. Johnson also leads the team in rebounds with 74, in steals

with 20 and in blocked shots with seven.

“The season has been going pretty well for me,” Johnson said. “I have had some off games but that happens to everyone.”

She said her height is one strength for and helps her rebounding and scoring on putting back rebounds.

“I don’t worry about statistics. I just want to do all I can to help my team. I think my strength is being aggressive under the basket and I try help my team every game by getting a doubledouble,” she said. “A double-double is scoring double figures in points and double figures in rebounds. I have been able to get a double-double in three games so far this season and want to add to that total in every game we play the rest of the season.”

King Features Weekly Service

© 2018 King Features Synd., Inc.

December 24, 2018

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) It’s a good time to take a much-needed break from your recent hectic schedule and spend some time in quieter surroundings. Important news could arrive early next week.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The Taurean traits of reliability and thoroughness could be well-tested when decision-makers consider your proposals and/or requests. Be prepared to answer some probing questions.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A sudden attack of boredom leaves you with some tasks undone. It’s OK to take a short respite. But get back to work by week’s end so that you have time for other projects.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Avoid prejudging a situation just because it looks bad. Facts could emerge that would make your position uncomfortable, to say the least. A relative has interesting news to share with you.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) This is a good time to begin reassessing some of your recent decisions about your long-range goals to see if they still have merit. Spend more time with loved ones this weekend.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) An unsettled situation at home or on the job early in the week could drain your energy levels, making it difficult to get your work done on schedule.

But things improve by midweek.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A temporary setback could give you time to go over your plans to find weaknesses you might have overlooked before. A romantic getaway with that special person is favored this weekend.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Professional and personal situations benefit once you set a positive tone in getting things off to a good start. Honest dialogue smoothes over any occasional display of balkiness.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A problem with workplace colleagues or family members seems to defy even your sage counsel.

But be patient. Your words eventually will lead to a resolution.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Don’t just wait out that unexpected and unexplained delay in your career move. You could gain added respect if you ask why it happened and what you can do to move things along.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Although your workplace strategies usually are accepted, you could be challenged by someone who isn’t so favorably impressed. Be prepared to defend your positions.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Your friendship circle expands, with new people coming into your life at this time. Welcome them warmly. But don’t neglect those cherished longtime personal relationships.

BORN THIS WEEK: You love to search for knowledge and share it with others. You would make an especially fine teacher.

Upgrading your bathtub to a shower system can prevent fall-related injuries The National Aging in Place Council suggests that eliminating an old bathtub for a walkin shower can greatly increase bathroom safety and end fall-related injuries. The study also recommends switching to a handheld showerhead and installing grab bars to increase bathing safety.

M

ost seniors want to stay in their homes, but bathing safely and independently can become increasingly difficult with age. Transforming your bathtub/shower combination into a walkin shower can be an ideal solution. Dreamstyle Remodeling offers a new shower solution, featuring Kohler products, that fits directly into the existing tub space and has been engineered specifically for safety, cleanliness and retaining independence while bathing.

Dreamstyle Remodeling’s walk-in showers benefit from over 140 years of Kohler engineering and bathroom innovation.

This long-term innovation means the showers are more than just function, they’re built for aesthetics as well, and designed specifically to enhance a home’s unique beauty. As a company, Dreamstyle Remodeling acknowledges it’s tough to be faced with bathing difficulties in your own home – but that shouldn’t have to detract from your quality of life.

The customizable showers come with a variety of features as well, so the bathroom can be personalized with ideal fixtures – things like Kohler’s Choreograph walls, which are made of natural marble in any pattern imaginable, and custom accessories like shelves, seating, sleek faucets, and the option of an Awaken handshower kit – a removable handheld showerhead with different spray options and easy access if bathing has become difficult.

Don’t let yourself or your loved one become a statistic: bathingrelated falls are no joke.

For a limited time only, Dreamstyle Remodeling is offering a free, in home consultation with a special introductory offer of 20% OFF MSRP a complete shower system.
