Event planners grapple with fee hikes Western Welcome Week, city events to go on as planned despite increased permit costs

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

With fingers still being pointed over the cancellation of Littleton’s annual Block Party, some of the city’s biggest event planners are concerned about the impact of increased event fees from South Metro Fire Rescue, Littleton’s new firefighting force.

Block Party organizer Greg Reinke announced in May that he was cancelling the shindig, which was scheduled for June 9, citing a cumbersome permitting process and what he called exorbitant permit fees.

“I didn’t want to gamble with other people’s money,” Reinke said.

Reinke isn’t the only one feeling the pinch.

“As a nonprofit, we have a tight budget,” said Cindy Hathaway, executive director of Western Welcome Week, Littleton’s biggest annual bash.

Hathaway previously paid $150 for both a special event and fireworks permit, she said, but this year she’s on the hook for about $1,600.

“We’re soliciting sponsors to help cover the extra expenses,” Hathaway said. “It’s not just the permit fees, though. Expenses in general are

climbing. We’ll need the community’s support.”

Western Welcome Week will go on as planned later this summer, Hathaway said, with few changes from previous years.

The City of Littleton, which hosts a variety of events throughout the year, including the Criterium bike race and Little Jam concert series, is also dealing with the fee hikes, said city spokesperson Kelli Narde.

“We’re incurring additional expenses, no question,” Narde said. “South Metro is inspecting things we haven’t had inspected in the past.”

The city is likely to pay an additional $16,000 in permit fees this year, Narde said.

Narde said she plans to ask South Metro to lower its fees.

“For this year it won’t have an effect (on city events),” Narde said. “But if those fees are not modified, I’ll have to ask for an increase in the event budget for 2020.”

Paying the price Littleton still did what it could to support the Block Party, Narde said.

She pushed back against Reinke’s accusation that the city imposed unreasonable demands for portable toilets and handwashing stations, saying that Reinke’s initial permit application, which said expected attendance was 20,000, mandated a high number of portable toilets.

“But our best crowd estimates for

previous Block Parties was 6,000 to 8,000, and we gave him a waiver allowing him to use about 20 toilets, which is the same number he’s used every year in the past,” Narde said.

Littleton’s old $150 permit fee was inadequate to recover costs of inspecting and protecting special events, Narde said, but the city kept fees low in part to support community events.

South Metro charges a $1,079 fee to inspect and protect a fireworks display, according to a fee schedule published on its website, and $464 for a special event permit.

The fireworks permit covers a host of services, said South Metro spokesperson Kristin Eckmann, including a Fire Marshal’s Office plan review, pre-event inspection, oversight during the display, suppression unit standby and post-event inspection the morning following the display.

“These fees are what are charged throughout our district and apply to all municipalities we serve,” Eckmann said in an email.

West Metro Fire Rescue, which covers the western portion of the Denver metro area, charges $750 for a permit for a large fireworks display, according to an online fee schedule, and $225 for

a large outdoor event permit.

Denver Fire charges $350 for a fireworks permit, according to an online fee schedule, though its fees are far more piecemeal than West Metro and South Metro, and include numerous smaller fees for things like post-event inspections, the number of tents and booths at an event, or an hourly fee for permit review.

South Metro is open to talk to stakeholders about its fees, Eckmann said.

“Periodically we evaluate our fees, and we do plan on looking at our current adopted philosophy of our special events fees later this year, at which point we will have a discussion with our board to determine our direction for next year,” Eckmann said in an email.

In the meantime, event planners are working with South Metro to iron out any other kinks that may arise.

“South Metro has been working with me,” Hathaway said. “After Greg (Reinke) cancelled, I went in and had a sit-down with them — I took my maps and showed them what we do, and we were both willing to make adjustments for each other.”

Former appeals judge, city attorney dies at 93 Alan Sternberg served Littleton before joining state appeals court

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Judge Alan Sternberg died on May 24 after a long career that included a period as Littleton’s city attorney during a period of rapid changes. He was 93.

Sternberg was born in Worcester, Massachusetts, attended schools in the Boston area and joined the Army in 1944, seeing combat in France and Germany with the 95th Infantry Division. He was wounded in action and received the Bronze Star, Purple Heart and Combat Infantry Badge.

He graduated from Northeastern University in Boston, then — attracted by mountains and unhappy with Eastern clannishness — he enrolled in the University of Colorado Law School and moved to Boulder with his first wife, Natalie (Cloper), who preceded him in death. He later received (1998) the William Knous Award, given to a CU-Boulder alumnus in recognition of outstanding achievement and service.

He graduated in 1950 and moved to Littleton, where he established a law practice, served as city attorney in Littleton from 1959 to 1974, and was instrumental in locating Arapahoe Junior College (now Arapahoe Com-

Sternberg was appointed to the Colorado Court of Appeals in 1974, serving until mandatory retirement in 1998, including nine years as chief judge.

He authored more than 1,800 opinions, including 568 published opinions and 56 published dissents, continued to work as a senior judge until 2017 and worked as a private arbitrator.

He is survived by his wife, Sharon (Ward), his children Kathy North (David), Peter Sternberg, Wendy Kawakami (Shigeo) and Daniel Sternberg, stepdaughter Dawn (Jerry) Lee, four grandchildren, one stepgrandchild and five great-grandchildren.

New trail, surfing spot bolster Platte greenway Remote-controlled wave adds to growing aquatic offerings on river

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Denver-area surfers rejoice: There’s a new wave to catch on the South Platte River.

On June 5, officials from South Suburban Parks and Recreation District and several partner agencies dedicated a new stretch of the Mary Carter Greenway, the bike trail that stretches along the South Platte, adding a mile to the East Bank Trail.

The new trail, which runs between Union Avenue on the south to Oxford Avenue on the north, runs parallel to an older trail on the west side of the river. It’s designed to alleviate some of the congestion on what’s becoming a heavily-used two-wheeled highway, said South Suburban park planner Pam Cornelisse.

“This has been a primarily industrial area for a long time,” Cornelisse said of the trail, which is sandwiched between an aggregate mill, a metal recycling facility and a junkyard. “But we’re reclaiming it into a place to be enjoyed.”

But the real action at the dedication was down in the river itself, where

J.B. Breidenbaugh, owner of Altitude Paddleboards in Littleton, catches a wave below a new “hydraulic wave shaper” along the South Platte River. The wave is one of an increasing number of aquatic amenities along the formerly-neglected waterway.

DAVID GILBERT

surfers splashed in the wake of a “hydraulic wave shaper,” a narrow chute that creates a wave that can be adjusted up or down by park employees.

The new wave shaper joins another just downstream installed in 2016 at Englewood’s River Run Park, said Ken McKenzie, executive director of the Urban Drainage and Flood Control

District, which was instrumental in reworking the stretch of river.

The stretch joins an increasing number of aquatic amenities along the river, McKenzie said, a big shift from just a couple decades ago.

In the 1990s, McKenzie said, he once burned through half a roll of film taking photos of a canoe going down the river.

“It was so unusual to see anyone recreating in the river back then,” McKenzie said. “Today we see it all the time, and we’re thrilled. People take care of what they love.”

The wave shaper is a welcome addition for river surfers, said J.B. Breidenbaugh, owner of Littleton’s Altitude Paddleboards.

“It’s a tremendous safety improvement” over the old spillover dams in about the same spot on the river, Breidenbaugh said. “I can bring friends and novice paddlers here, and not worry they’re going to get banged up.”

The trail, too, is a big step toward reclaiming the stretch of river from decades of neglect, said Robert Searns, the Mary Carter Greenway’s project developer.

“We’ve turned No Man’s Land into a park,” Searns said of the new stretch of the trail.

The work of improving the Mary Carter Greenway will never truly be done, Searns said.

“But,” he said, “anyone can see it’s really coming into its prime.”

‘We did our part’ Ruth Mullis, WWII-era ‘Rosie the Riveter,’ hopes to meet others

REUNITING ROSIES Are you a Rosie, or do you know one who might like to meet Ruth Mullis? Reach out to Mullis at enerbun2@juno.com. Or reach out to Jo Ann Fisher, the head of the Colorado chapter of the American Rosie the Riveter Association, at jandm.premier@ gmail.com or 303-668-8568.

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

There isn’t much time left to get to know someone like Ruth Mullis.

Mullis, 96, is one of a dwindling number of “Rosies,” named for Rosie the Riveter — women who stepped into men’s roles in labor and business during World War II. In years past, Mullis has attended annual American Rosie the Riveter Association (ARRA) reunions, but health issues kept her home from this year’s convention in Iowa. With much of her generation fading into history, she’s hoping to meet some of her remaining sisters from the home front.

“People are starting to forget about us,” Mullis said from her Littleton home. “Before the war, women could be teachers, secretaries, nurses or housewives. But now, we’ve got women CEOs. We were part of that change.

We proved our capabilities. We were some of the first to wear pants, for heaven’s sake.”

Rosies were a vital part of the American war effort, said ARRA President Donnaleen Lanktree.

Ruth Mullis, 96, holds a picture of herself working in an aircraft plant in the 1940s.

Mullis, of Littleton, is one of Colorado’s few remaining “Rosies” — women who took on men’s roles in labor and business during World War II. Unable to attend a national reunion this year, Mullis is hoping to meet other Rosies in the area.

DAVID GILBERT “They did it because they needed to do it,” Lanktree said. “Without them, winning the war would have been far more difficult. Many felt a sense of duty to the country, and to do what they could to bring their men home.

Others did it to secure an income if their husbands were killed.”

There were perhaps millions of Rosies, Lanktree said, who produced 80,000 landing craft, 100,000 tanks,

300,000 aircraft, 15 million guns and 41 billion rounds of ammunition.

Rosies possess a special spirit and gumption, Lanktree said: “I never met a Rosie I didn’t like.”

Ruth’s story Mullis was born in 1923 in Michigan, and in the early years of the Great Depression, her father’s slew of respiratory diseases sent the family

south in search of warmer weather.

Mullis, her parents and two brothers wound up living in the woods outside Orlando, Florida, where they slept on planks laid through the windows of their Model A Ford to keep them off the ground.

“I don’t like to talk about that time much,” Mullis said. “We ate what we could. We trapped rabbits. I was anemic.”

Eventually they moved in with relatives in Miami, and life steadied. In high school, Mullis met Ted Johnson, the man she would marry.

Mullis graduated from high school in June 1941, and wanted to go to nursing school, but her family couldn’t afford to send her. She was running a dry cleaners that winter when America entered the war after the Pearl Harbor attack.

Johnson joined the Navy, Mullis said, and gave away most of his belongings, expecting to die in combat.

Reverse Mortgage: No Monthly Payment, Get Cash & Pay Off Your Mortgage

I

s your mortgage payment “strangling” you? Are you worried about which bills to pay on your fixed income? Is there no joy in the Golden years because your budget is so tight? A reverse mortgage may be the answer you have been seeking.

A government insured loan product that allows you to pay off your current mortgage thereby eliminating your monthly mortgage payment can provide the budget breathing-room you need.

Taxes and homeowner’s insurance must still be paid, but many seniors have found that not only can they eliminate their mortgage payment, they can also get tax-free cash to use for any purpose.

Even if you don’t have a mortgage, you may be “house rich and cash poor.” You have paid into your home for many years and have accumulated housing wealth that can only be accessed if you sell. But now a reverse mortgage will allow you to access the equity in your home while you continue to own the home so you can get

cash and make life a little easier.

Get the correct facts. There is a lot of wrong information floating around about reverse mortgages. With a reverse mortgage, no one owns the home but you, and no debt is passed on to your heirs. You will still have substantial equity in your home, and can sell at any time.

Call your local Reverse Mortgage Specialist for more information on your situation and to see if this program will benefit you. You owe it to yourself and your family to know your options, with accurate facts.

ROSIES FROM PAGE 5

Mullis said she, like many other young women, was eager to do her part to win the war. But her first application to work in a Convair aircraft plant was rejected for lack of experience.

Mullis went to work in the factory cafeteria and enrolled in riveting classes in night school. Though she showed little aptitude for riveting, she excelled at technical drawing and was soon put to work designing templates for aircraft wing parts.

“The tolerance for the parts was just three thousandths of an inch,” Mullis said. “The most exciting moment was when I’d finish a template, and they’d take them out to the floor, and soon you’d hear ‘whir-chunk. Whir-chunk’ — the sound of parts coming off the line using my templates.”

Mullis married Johnson while he was home on leave in 1943, and by the time the war ended, she was repairing damaged planes coming back from combat theaters.

After the war In the fall of 1945, Johnson returned home, and Mullis said she and the other Rosies were eager to move on with life.

“We did our part as best we could,” Mullis said. “We all walked out those doors and went back to being women.

We were thinking of starting lives with our husbands, of having children.”

A tumor, however, left Mullis unable to have children, though she flourished as a draftsman, building on the skills she learned at Convair. She went to work in an engineering firm, designing roofs for churches, gymnasiums and other large structures.

“I would design these complex roofs, then I would take them over to an engineer who would sign his name on them,” Mullis said.

Mullis and Johnson retired to a cabin above Deckers in Colorado in 1973. Johnson died in 2003, and Mullis

stayed alone in the cabin for several years after.

In 2006, Mullis met Leonard Mullis, a World War II veteran and former head librarian at Arapahoe Community College, on Match.com. They became one of the oldest couples to ever connect on the dating site. The couple married and moved into Leonard’s home in Littleton.

Mullis has enjoyed meeting other Rosies at the ARRA conventions, but says they’re fading fast.

“There were 50 or 60 of us at the 2017 convention,” Mullis said. “By last year, it was down to 28. That’s how fast we’re dying off.”

Finding Rosies Many women who lived through World War II may not even realize they were Rosies, said Jo Ann Fisher, president of ARRA’s Colorado chapter and a daughter of a Rosie herself.

“A woman saw my Rosie shirt, and said, ‘All I did was take over driving the tractor on the farm when my brother went off to war,’” Fisher said.

“I told her: ‘You’re a Rosie!’“ The ARRA counts any woman who supported the home effort as a Rosie, Fisher said, whether that was in manufacturing, seamstressing, farming or growing a Victory Garden.

It’s taken decades for Rosies to appreciate the part they played in breaking down gender roles, Fisher said.

“They’ll say they went to work to bring the men home so they could get married and have babies,” Fisher said.

“And we say, ‘no, you broke it all open for women!’”

Fisher said she’d love to help Mullis meet other Rosies.

“It’s been hard to get meetings going in Colorado,” Fisher said. “We’ve been trying, but I’ve kind of given up. People are so spread out, and the women are all at least in their 90s now.”

Mullis said she doesn’t know how much time she has left, but she hopes she can spend some of it in the company of some of the bold, strong women who answered their country’s call.

“Let’s get together,” she said, “before there’s no one left who remembers.”

Meet Littleton’s ‘cheese magician’ Garrett Palecek, Curds Cheese owner, adds Spur coffee to menu at palate-pleasing shop

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Sure, there are cheese aficionados.

And you might find a real-live cheesemonger at Whole Foods.

But only at Littleton’s Curds Cheese shop, at 2449 West Main St., will you meet Garrett Palecek — a “cheese magician.”

The magic is twofold, Palecek said: “I make it appear, you make it disappear.”

Curds Cheese, founded in 2015, offers a dizzying array of rare and highend cheeses, available for snacking onor off-site on meticulously arranged cheeseboards. The shop also boasts a host of salads, paninis, sandwiches and appetizers.

Now, with the addition of Spur brand coffee, Palecek hopes to take Curds to the next level as a place to ignite and delight the palate.

“Coffee and cheese are natural companions,” Palecek said. “Think about it: Why do you add cream to coffee? To take the edge off, maybe to taste some flavors you wouldn’t notice otherwise.

Well, cheese is dairy, and it offers that same enhancement. Coffee and cheese play well together.”

Curds Cheese owner Garrett Palecek holds a custom cheeseboard. “Anyone can put together an impressive cheeseboard,” Palecek said. “Try a mix of cheeses from different animals. Add in some fruit or jam — sweet and salty work well together.”

PHOTOS BY DAVID GILBERT

Palecek brought high-end coffee into the shop last fall, he said, but after Spur Coffee mysteriously closed on Prince Street in February, he saw a good opportunity to bring in the beloved brand.

Palecek got his start in food a decade ago, as a purchasing manager for Coors Field — though that was mostly hot dogs and pretzels, he said. He later became a buyer for a Longmont-based cheese importer, and fell in love.

“There’s something romantic about how much love goes into cheese,” Palecek said. “Animals need to be happy to make good cheese. The farmers who produce what I carry, they love their

animals. Cows with names make better cheese.”

The difference between his shop and a specialty grocer, Palecek said, is that he takes the time to get to know his cheeses long-term.

“They change as they age,” Palecek said. “Like this La Tur — it’s a combination of goat, cow and sheep’s milk, so it’s like unicorn cheese. It’s like cheese, butter and ice cream had a baby. It only lasts a few weeks, though, and the flavor profile is evolving the whole time.”

The shop is a delight to Althea Wingert, who on June 5 brought friends to share a $28 cheeseboard.

“I went to school in Wisconsin, where they make delicious cheese curds,” Wingert said. “Nowhere else around here can you get curds this good.”

By the end of the nosh session, Curds had won over Wingert’s friend Lynn Ashburn.

“It was like heaven on a plate,” Ashburn said of the cheeseboard. “Downtown Littleton has just ruined me with good food.”

Condemned home demolished in Littleton House caught fire day before city hearing, owner’s whereabouts unknown

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A south Littleton home declared dangerous after a still-unsolved fire was demolished in the first week of June, leaving neighbors hoping the demolition spells the end of a seven-year ordeal over the home’s condition.

The house at 7874 S. Windermere Circle caught fire in the early hours of March 19, a day before a city hearing to determine whether it should stay standing.

Littleton Police investigators interviewed owner David Lynch in the days following the fire, said Littleton Police Cmdr. Trent Cooper, but he did not appear at a hearing he requested before the Building Board of Appeals to fight a demolition order for the house on March 20.

Nobody returned a call to a phone number listed for Lynch, and his current whereabouts are unknown, Cooper said.

City officials declared the home dangerous after the fire, according to a city news release.

“The property owner had 30 days to appeal the declaration but failed to do so,” the release reads in part.

An excavator tears into a home on South Windermere Circle on May 31. The home, owned by David Lynch, caught fire in March the day before a hearing to determine whether it should be torn down after years of violations.

DAVID GILBERT The house first came to code enforcement’s attention in 2012 after Lynch was arrested on animal cruelty charges, according to testimony at a city hearing early this year. The house was declared uninhabitable in May 2018, and after the owner failed to correct issues with the house, a demolition order was issued in November 2018.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation, Cooper said.

“We’ve taken samples from the scene, and we’re waiting for chemical analysis on those, but at the moment we don’t have probable cause to make an arrest,” Cooper said.

Schools teacher who lives next door to the house, said she hopes the neighborhood can move forward after what she called years of problems.

“This has taken such a toll on me emotionally,” said Landin, who filed a restraining order against Lynch in 2006.

She and other neighbors who gathered outside the home as demolition began on May 31 said they believe they’ve seen Lynch on the property late at night on numerous occasions.

Depending on the investigation’s direction, detectives could want to speak to Lynch further, Cooper said. “At the moment, though, there’s no concerted

effort to seek him out.”

Neighbors can call police if they see him on the property, Cooper said.

“The house is gone,” Cooper said.

“There’s no reason for him to be in the neighborhood anymore.”

Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman said she’s glad to see the situation move toward a conclusion.

“We have to work within the bounds of the law,” Brinkman said. “When you look back at those seven years, it was a repeated matter of him falling out of compliance, then doing the bare minimum to bring it back into compliance. I know it was hard for the neighborhood to deal with, but it’s no small thing for a city to condemn a citizen’s home.”

The city is likely to incur costs of about $30,000 to 40,000 to demolish the house, which the city will attempt to recoup through a lien on the property or through similar legal channels, said city spokesperson Kelli Narde.

The future of the lot is unclear, Narde said, and is in the hands of the mortgage lender.

Ironically, Brinkman said, the fire helped speed the process.

“It was the fire that finally got it declared a dangerous structure, which sped up the demolition order.”

Brinkman said she hopes this is the beginning of a new chapter for neighbors.

“It’s been a long, tedious, tormented process,” Brinkman said. “But this part is over.”

Peak experience is a case of aiming way too high

T

he greatest risk I am willing to take is grocery shopping in Douglas County on a Saturday afternoon.

It is an electrifying episode of “Supermarket Sweep” conjoined with a dress rehearsal for “Lord of the Flies.”

Get ready for some alliteration: It is carts and kids and confusion. Grandparents and grandchildren. Half are leaning over a phone, and the other half are looking in one direction and walking in another.

I go as punishment. If I have done something wrong, impermissible to my code, during the week, I feel a need to be punished.

It is not Catholic. It is Harry and Shirley, who instilled values in me I can’t shake.

I have no sense of adventure, and

I never have had a sense of adventure.

Combining risk with adventure is the last thing I would do.

And combining risk with adventure at 29,000 feet isn’t even a moment’s contemplation.

Mount Everest was once thought to be an unobtainable goal.

It was a big deal. It was international news. And Edmund became Sir Edmund because of it.

queue of climbers in colorful parkas headed up.

Some of them make it to the top and some of them turn around. And some of them fall in the snow and die.

So far this year: 11 bodies.

I have tried my best to figure out why this doesn’t appeal to me, any more than being an astronaut, or someone who interviews sharks in person.

I camp in nice hotels, with hot and cold running toilets, and bedding than isn’t visited by ravenous bears.

I have left it all to others to share with me what they have done. Like that Bourdain fellow, who went around the world, ate things that most of us wouldn’t, and explored the rich veins of other cultures.

I explore my refrigerator.

A LETTER TO THE EDITOR Recall tactics are unacceptable Just to the east of Littleton, intimidating behavior is going on in State House District 37 by the people collecting signatures to recall Rep. Tom Sullivan. Recently, a friend encountered petitioners at the grocery store, and when she stepped in to talk to passersby about why they should decline to sign, the petitioners called her a terrorist and she was told that, if she didn’t have a gun, she could get shot.

The petition effort is backed

by Rocky Mountain Gun Owners (RMGO). Do they approve of these tactics? Signatures are being solicited

to oust a duly elected lawmaker for fulfilling his campaign promises. They want a redo. They want to waste taxpayer money to do it. This isn’t what recalls are for.

Threatening residents with violence is unacceptable and intolerable. How long before these tactics are unleashed on Littleton voters when an elected official supports legislation that some group does not like? If you want new representation, there’s an election for that next year, and it won’t cost taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Thoreau stayed in one place his entire life, including two years in a 15 x 10 cabin. He wrote “Walden” about it, which Robert Louis Stevenson chided for being “womanly,” because Thoreau wrote it in near isolation, while Stevenson was off exploring the world.

(Both of them died at age 44.)

My biographer may find me in contempt if he or she has a high regard for risk and adventure in someone’s life.

Roller coasters and race cars. Neither. Interstate 25 is enough.

Being a schoolteacher was plenty risky, let me tell you. And it is a much greater risk now to tend a classroom in America.

Keeping commitments we make to ourselves

s any good salesperson or sales manager will tell you, getting a “verbal” commitment or a “verbal” yes from a prospect, without a signed agreement or authorized transaction, just doesn’t get the job done. As a matter of fact, it’s worse than just not getting the job WINNING done, this practice fills their sales WORDS pipeline with fluff and keeps the salesperson focused on the wrong opportunities and investing their time and energy on potential business that will most likely never materialize.

Michael Norton Verbal commitments are not just a salesperson’s woes: The verbal commitments we make to ourselves and never fulfill impact our lives in so many ways as we never quite close the transaction. And sooner or later our goals and dreams become just another lost opportunity.

We commit to certain behaviors.

We commit to living in a different way. We commit to pursuing our dreams and passions. We commit to

changing or breaking a bad habit.

Sometimes we make these commitments and actually say the words out loud. And other times we make the commitment within the safety of our own heart and mind. And what happens in most cases when we have under-committed or failed to commit to an agreement with ourselves, is that we tend to give up or lose more often than we win.

Although it may seem like it, this is not all bad news. The fact that we are having positive thoughts and making “verbal” commitments to ourselves is an indicator that we know we need to make a change or want something different in our lives. We want to make a change that aligns with the things we are most passionate about in this life. We want to alter something that is having a negative impact on our health or in our relationships. So, knowing that our intent is good, we just need to live up to the fulfillment and to our commitments.

This is why it is so extremely important to write down our goals.

By writing down our goals we are turning our “verbal” commitment

with ourselves into a form of an agreement. We are contracting with ourselves to commit to doing what we said we will do when we said we will do it, changing what we committed to changing, and fulfilling our lifelong goals and dreams. We become one step closer with each review of what we have written down, and we become one step closer to meeting and exceeding our expectations.

A “verbal” yes in sales that leads to a signed agreement is awesome.

Getting a “no” in sales is also good, not as good as getting a “yes” but still much better than getting a “maybe” or a “think it over”.

The same holds true for our own commitments. If it is going to be a “yes,” than we need to write it down and make the commitment.

If it is going to be a “no,” or “no for now,” than we need to dismiss it until we can commit to it. And if it is a “maybe” or a “think it over,” we need to drop those too or else we will find ourselves overcommitted to everything and never accomplishing anything.

So how about you? Are your commitments advancing you toward the successful achievement of your dreams and goals? Or are you feeling overcommitted or maybe even under-committed and finding yourself stuck somewhere in between? Either way, I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@ gmail.com. And when we can become truly committed to our success, it really will be a better than good week.

The risks I experienced were the slings of “C” students. They could be formidable.

Colleagues inflated grades, insuring some buffer; but, again, I could hear Harry and Shirley, reminding me of my duty.

My girlfriend is a high school teacher. She and her students have been educated in something I was not. Survival.

American schools are as full of risks as Mount Everest, without the wind chill.

My photographer has three grade schoolaged children.

She said they have not been traumatized by evacuations and lock downs.

Business as usual.

Dianne Leith Martin, 74, passed away in Denver, CO on May 8, 2019. Dianne was born on Mar. 11, 1945 in Central City, NE, to Russell and Helen Oswald (Trail). Dianne had two older siblings, Larry and Loretta, and a younger brother, Ron. She loved her time in Nebraska. They lived across the road from her grandparents, Anna and Maurice Trail, and she always spoke fondly of them, and their time together. The family moved to Aurora, CO around 1952, and Dianne graduated from Aurora Central High School in June of 1963. She married her high school sweetheart, William “Bill” Grady Martin on August 31, 1963. In March of 1965, Dianne and Bill had their first of two children, Duane, followed by Dean in September of 1966. Dianne devoted her time, love, and energy to her family, while also working part-time as a bookkeeper at Chapin Lumber Company in Aurora.

While attending the Free Methodist Church in Aurora, Bill and Dianne felt called to the ministry. They moved to McPherson, KS, in 1975 where Bill studied and graduated from Central College. Their first church assignment was in 1977 in Farmington, NM. After a year in New Mexico they moved to Englewood, CO and ministered at the Englewood Free Methodist Church. Their last assignment was in 1981, where they ministered at the Longmont Free Methodist Church.

Bill retired from the ministry in 1983, and returned to the lumber industry.

Dianne worked for several years as

assistant to the President at Longmont National Bank, which was later acquired by Colorado National Bank. She was also the assistant to the President at Colorado National Bank in Boulder. Dianne then worked for several years as a legal assistant at the law firm of Grant, Bernard, Lyons & Gaddis in Longmont, and for several years with the law firm of Caplan and Earnest in Boulder. She retired from Caplan and Earnest in 2014. The most important job to her was bring a loving mom, wife, and grandma. Dianne and Bill celebrated their 51st wedding anniversary in August of 2014. Dianne loved flowers, and spent countless hours planning, planting, and tending to her beautiful flower gardens.

She could take any patch of dirt and make it beautiful. She was also an avid reader, and loved to spend time with a good book.

Dianne leaves a legacy of her children, Duane (Connie) Martin of Littleton, CO, and Dean Martin of Littleton, CO; grandchildren, Caitlin (Gabe) of Ft. Collins, CO, Ryan of Boulder, CO, and Kimberly (fiancé, Chris) of Highlands Ranch, CO; and great-grandchildren, Avery and Gracie of Highlands Ranch, CO. She is preceded in death by her beloved husband, Bill.

A memorial service to celebrate Dianne’s life will be held on Sat. Jun. 22, 2019 at 2PM, at Olinger Chapel Hill in Centennial. Condolences and fond memories may be shared at www.

How to help teens balance time on and off social media

FIVE ACTIVITIES THAT REPLACE SOCIAL MEDIA

• Exercise. Go for a jog or grab a sports ball and head to the nearest park.

• Color in a coloring book. Amazon has a variety of options, including designs of flowers and animals.

ummer is here, which typically means teenagers have more free time on their hands. And their hands may often be even more busy with their smartphones as they try to stay in touch with friends and fill the void normally occupied by school.

But while popular apps like Snapchat and Instagram have some benefit, mental health experts agree that in most cases human-to-human interaction is far more beneficial.

Finding a healthy balance of time spent on and off social media can be a challenge. According to 2018 study by Pew Research, 95% of U.S. teens ages 13 to 17 have access to a smartphone, and 45% say they are online “almost constantly.” Roughly one-third of participants said they visited Snapchat or YouTube most often.

Mental health experts recommend one to two hours of screen time a day and no more than 10 hours per week. Too much time spent on devices can take away from positive face-to-face activities, disrupt sleep and in turn disrupt mental health, and potentially hurt self-esteem.

• Listen to music. Or put your headphones in and head outside for a walk.

• Do a puzzle with family or friends.

• Play an old-fashioned board game: Monopoly, Scrabble, Clue or Candy Land, to name a few.

“As kids spend more time on (social media), there is a much higher likelihood that it is going to become more detrimental than beneficial because teens are very comparative with one another,” said Dr. Sarah Davidon, research director at Mental Health Colorado, a nonprofit organization that advocates for the treatment and prevention of mental health and substance-use disorders. “It starts getting really hard on teens, who, even without social media, are not as confident with

themselves at different ages in their lives.”

The good news is that summer doesn’t have to be spent in the pervasive world of technology. Balance is possible with the help of some good old-fashioned fun.

Get outside Dr. Bruno Anthony, who specializes in psychology at Children’s Hospital Colorado, stresses the importance of putting down the phone and engaging in physical activity, whether that be hiking, playing a sport or taking a walk with friends.

“We know that there is a strong relation between obesity and screen time,” Anthony said.

New museum exhibits are well worth dawdling over Summertime offers opportunity to absorb intriguing shows

IF YOU GO

Both exhibits are included with admission to the Denver Art Museum. All members and all children 18 and younger: free. Colorado adults, $10; seniors and college students $8.

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Denver Art Museum has opened two recent exhibits that offer another way to spend summer hours, when one can enjoy an up-close experience of color and light, in contrast to the truly exceptional vistas and outdoor experiences that we enjoy close to home or within a few hours’ drive.

Exhibits are in the Hamilton Building, while the Gio Ponti building to the north is closed for renovation.

“Way cool,” one might observe!

“Serious Play: Design in Midcentury America” opened on the second floor early in May, running through Aug. 25, and might be of special interest to residents of Arapahoe Acres in Englewood and Arapahoe Hills in Littleton, who live in midcentury communities.

Many other homes in our south area carry similar architectural design, and midcentury furnishings find their way into buildings of every style in the area. It’s said to be a first with its strong emphasis on play, as well as design. Playful objects for adults are multiple, as well as child-sized furniture and playthings.

Co-curated by Denver Art Museum’s architecture and design curator Darrin Alfred and Monicka Obniski, curator of 20th and 21st century design at the Milwaukee Art Museum, where it debuted, the exhibition includes over 200 items in a variety of mediums: paper, textile, metal and wood furniture, toys, clocks and many other accessories. Items on exhibit are designed, among others, by Charles and Ray Eames for Herman Miller Furniture Company, Irving Harper, Alexander Girard, Anne Tyng, Henry P. Glass, Estelle and Erwin Laverne and sculptor Isamu Noguchi, whose curvy, sculptural red playground piece is so inviting. Stop by the table full of tops you can spin.

Playful related films show in several locations, recognizing the need to escape Cold War anxieties that were in and on the air daily … New manufacturing techniques made ownership of many items affordable — and a different attitude on childrearing reflected the inclination to interact with good design.

One finds a choice of sets of “House of Cards” available in the special gift shop where one exits, as well as handsome design books and assorted toys for kids and grown-ups. A related project is “Make a Card, Build a House,” where visitors will decorate Eames cards for a giant house of cards.

Also at the DAM is the just-opened “The Light Show,” co-curated by modern and contemporary art curator Rebecca Hart and Spanish colonial art curator Jorge Rivas Perez. It will run through May 3, 2020 and warrants more than one visit to let your mind play with a variety of experiences.

It illustrates how artists have used

light (and shadow) over time to present symbols, images of physical light in the natural world as well as metaphorical, spiritual and divine representations of light. The museums’ vast collection was the source for objects in this exhibit. One has to reset the brain a bit to process the works in perhaps a different perspective from simply looking at a series of items in a row on a wall.

Rivas said: “The exhibition will explore and raise meanings about the emblematic meanings of light and darkness, including a section about the underworld.” Altars and deities appear as well as abstract patterns and the installation, “Corridor #2” by Lucas Samaris, last seen in 2003. (Take time to walk through this tunnel and experience it.)

A major recent acquisition (2017) by sculptor Fred Wilson: “The Way the Moon’s Afraid of the Dark,” is a good place to begin one’s visit on the fourth floor. It’s a huge chandelier, 4 1/2 feet wide and 6 1/2 feet tall, made with Murano blown glass, clear brown glass and steel. Created for the 2017 Istanbul Biennial, Wilson incorporated Ottoman and Venetian lighting traditions — historically opposed to each other.

Next to Wilson’s work — and illuminated by it — is the massive and elegant “Rain Has No Father?” by African artist El Anatsui, with glitter reflecting light — and incorporating found materials: bottle tops and copper wire. (153 by 239 inches.) It was included in and purchased from an exhibit of his work at the museum in 2008 and we were so pleased to see it again.

Absorb works on the fourth floor, then descend to the third floor for more images of light and dark, ranging from Tres Birds Workshop’s “Infinity Screen Prototype for Lumina, Denver CO, 2014,” created with anodized aluminum and lighted dramatically. (Figuring out the display logistics for this one piece took several days, Rebecca Hart said.) It’s a model for a panel that decorates a Denver building.

Walls also hold traditional religious paintings — many with reflective gold paint, that speak to a different sort of

illumination. Or, enjoy a Japanese lantern, a contemporary “Ashoka Lamp,” 1981, by Italian architect and designer Ettore Sottsas and a gilded traditional Mexican altar (1958 — “an important conservation project” per Perez), as well as a handsome — and unexpected — contemporary altarpiece by American pop artist Keith Haring. A glance in any direction yields a new discovery.

Don’t miss photographer Ansel Adams’ famous “Moonrise Over Hernandez, New Mexico,” 1944!

Colorado Renaissance Festival promises magical season Eight-week event returns to Larkspur for its 43rd summer STAFF REPORT

The eight-week Colorado Renaissance Festival kicks off its 43rd summer on Saturday, June 15, with a treasure trove of magic, artisans and entertainment in Larkspur, 30 minutes south of Denver and just north of Colorado Springs.

The event, which averages about 200,000 patrons each year, is set in a 30acre village with 10 stages of non-stop entertainment, including jugglers, acrobatics, a village hypnotist and more.

There is dancing and singing with musicians and plenty of opportunities to cheer for your favorite knight in the tournament joust.

The festival also offers a marketplace of more than 200 artisans, crafters, and vendors selling unique, handcrafted items. You can watch pottery throwing, glass blowing, leather-making and more.

Food includes smoked turkey legs, marinated steak-on-a-stick, roasted chicken, stews, desserts, ale and wine.

For more information or to order tickets, call 303-688-6010 or visit www.

“She was kind of relieved ultimately to get that time back so she could spend time with people she cared about rather than keeping this artificial contest going,” Vanderkolk said. “She would, in general, do more things with the people who she genuinely wanted to spend time with.”

Anthony encourages teens to get out of the house and go to the movies or the mall with others. “You want to limit as much as you can those kinds of sedentary activities and encourage interactions,” he said.

Davidon, too, emphasized the link between brain and body. Physical health and activity leads to positive mental health, she said. She recommends even the simplest of outdoor activities: coloring with chalk on the sidewalk or getting a snow cone and taking a walk as a family.

“If our bodies are healthy, if we are keeping our bodies fit and well maintained through exercise, what we eat and how we sleep, then our brains are much more likely to be healthier,” Davidon said.

Research shows that being outdoors also allows kids to get a healthy dose of vitamin D from the sun, develop an appreciation for nature and learn to take risks, like climb a tree. If young people are kept in a bubble, Harvard Medical School reports, they “may not have the confidence and bravery to face life’s inevitable risks.”

Remember it’s OK to be bored Summer can bring added stress to parents, who may feel like they have to plan a list of activities for the days and hours their children would otherwise be in school.

Davidon reminds those parents that it’s OK for children and teens to be bored, with no activity or screen.

“It’s great to spend time with your kids but that doesn’t mean you have to plan something every moment of the day,” Davidon said. “It can mean you just take a walk or go catch butterflies.”

Boredom is healthy, Davidon said, as it is a chance for young people to be “inventive.”

“They might kick and scream but that’s OK,” Davidon said. “Parents aren’t bad parents if their kids are bored.”

PHOTOS BY CLARKE READER

he name might have changed this year, but Denver Pop Culture Con was as brash and big as ever. Taking place at the Convention Center from May 31 through June 2, thousands of geeks, nerds, collectors and fans turned out to honor the writers, artists, actors and creators who have brought geek culture into the mainstream.

Famous onscreen performers from Doctor Who, “Guardians of the Galaxy,” “The Magicians” and “Back to the Future” were on hand to take photos and sign autographs, and hundreds of booths allowed for shopping, collecting and connection

Entire groups of family and friends get in on the cosplay act at Denver Pop Culture Con on June 1.

Three-yearold Greyson Cabrera from Aurora had his first cosplayer experience at Denver Pop Culture Con on June 1. He also had the chance to meet some of his favorite heroes, like Spider-Man.

with fellow fans.

As is always the case, one of the main draws was cosplayers, who impressed with tributes to expected characters and series - plenty of Doctor Who, Star Wars, Game of Thrones and Marvel - as well as some delightful surprises like some choice “Big Lebowski” characters, several different species of dinosaurs and Barf from “Spaceballs.”

Dusty and Shaun Pack and Katrina Kendall came all the way from Wyoming to enjoy the con and showed off some seriously impressive Dragonball Super cosplay.

“Last year was around Father’s Day and this year’s con is right at the end of the school year,” Dusty said. “It’s a great way to celebrate.”

Tiny House Festival returns for third year STAFF REPORT

More than 40 small living structures, from tiny houses on wheels to container homes, will be on display at the Colorado Tiny House Festival, returning for its third year June 21-23 at the Adams County Fairgrounds.

Other structures on display will be skoolies, van conversions, gypsy wagons, teardrops, yurts and more. The festival also will debut its Camping Corner and a Skoolie Build Workshop.

Camping Corner will showcase the latest small living structures.

The hands-on Skoolie Build/bus conversion workshop will feature experts who have completed multiple conversions and live in their skoolies.

The workshop is limited to 50 people.

Registration includes weekend admission to the festival.

The event is hosted by the Colorado Tiny House Association.

Art Laubach, Colorado Tiny House Festival organizer and director, is working to organize the tiny living movement in Colorado and help make tiny home living legal in the state.

“Tiny home living is becoming a bigger deal in Colorado,” Laubach said in a news release. “Durango’s first tiny-home community, Escalante Village, was recently announced, the small-home community Creede

America continues to expand, many mountain towns have built tiny homes to rent to workers as affordable housing options, the town of Lyons recently approved an ordinance allowing a limited number of tiny homes to be used as accessory dwelling units, and now the town of Fountain is considering adopting zoning rules for tiny homes.”

In addition to tours of nearly 40 unique small living structures, attendees will enjoy expert speaker presentations, hands-on workshops, a product and service marketplace, entertainment, food, drink and more.

A home is considered “tiny” if it has less than 600 square feet of living space. Financial advantages include low construction and land costs, low utilities and upkeep.

The festival runs from noon to 5 p.m.

The Bible Speaks – Nations Tomorrow, June 14, is Flag Day when we honor our nation’s flag that symbolizes all that is dear to us: life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness. Long may it wave “o’re the land of the free & the home of the brave”, our beloved nation.

God established nations (Gen 11:8,9). He sets their times & boundaries (Acts 17:26). He sets up their rulers & deposes them (Dan 2:21). The governing authorities are established by God & they rule by His permission & directive (Rom 13:1-5). God will prosper any nation that recognizes & honors Him (Ps 33:12).

Nations will never cease. Israel will be the predominant nation in Christ’s future earthly kingdom (Isa 2:1-4) but other nations & their kings will bring glory & honor to it (Rev 21:24). What a wonderful time that will be. Come Lord Jesus. hfsmail@basicisp.net

PERMIT FEES FROM PAGE 2

South Metro will only require minor tweaks, Hathaway said, such as more breaks between canopy tents that line Main Street during the parade.

‘We’re all in the same boat’ The Historic Downtown Littleton Merchants Association, of which Reinke is president, is hopeful that the Block Party can come back next year, said board member Korri Stainbrook.

“We didn’t take the cancellation lightly,” said Stainbrook, adding that the decision was ratified by a unanimous vote of the board. “We take some of the blame. We got started too late, and we just assumed the permitting process would be about the same.

As good event planners, we should have started looking at this in January. It would have been nice to have more communication, but these are

the same fees they charge everyone.”

The Merchants Association is seeing declining membership, Stainbrook said, and it’s becoming harder to get members to participate in planning events like the Block Party.

“In some ways, we’re a victim of our own success,” Stainbrook said, as restarateurs on Main Street are increasingly too busy handling their own packed houses to jump in on promotional events.

The silver lining to the cancellation, Stainbrook said, is that it’s a chance to draw more help for future events.

“People don’t realize how much time and money it costs to throw that event,” Stainbrook said. “We need more community support. We need Littleton businesses and restaurants to stay committed to it.”

Collaboration will be key to ensuring Littleton’s slate of events succeed in the face of changes, Reinke said.

“We’re all in the same boat,” he said.

“We all have to row together, or we don’t go anywhere.”

“I’ve Been Told I Have Disc Degeneration & Arthritis in My Back & There’s NOTHING I Can Do About It.” I literally cringe every time I hear this from clients who are told there’s nothing that can be done for their pain when dealing with back arthritis. It’s nearly equivalent to hearing “You’re just getting old. Pain is normal. Just deal with it.” I’ll give you 3 solid points to think about when it comes to being told this information. #1: Fortunately you don’t have to change the arthritis to get out of pain! Naturally, joints go through “wear & tear” as time passes. This isn’t painful for most people.

There’s been studies that show someone at the age of 60 has a 88%+ chance of having disc degeneration in their spine… but do NOT experience pain. So, the question then becomes, what is really causing your pain? #2: You’ve been steered wrong, your pain CAN improve! Many people use modalities such as massage or heat. Sure, these all LESSEN the intensity of pain. The problem is, those modalities (heat, ice, massage) are helpful to calm the pain, but don’t get down to the ROOT CAUSE of why pain happened in the first place. After you learn what the root cause is, then movement, specific exercise, and tissue remodeling techniques will help reduce pain in day-to-day activities and keep it from coming back again. #3: You are uniquely qualified to get out of pain! Pain is experienced differently by every human. Because of this, it’s important to understand that your pain is uniquely yours. This is why many people don’t get better with a “generic” back exercise program. Knowing what your pain-relief techniques are usually requires an investigation.

If you would like to know how to actually get to the bottom of back pain without having to visit the doctor using these common yet overlooked routines that can help back pain go away fast… Then we want to offer this gift to you as a devoted reader of the WPP. It’s a Free Report, entitled “7 Essential Tips to Ease Back Pain”, revealing the leading cause of back pain that is overlooked by 95% of doctors and even shows how you can get to the bottom of back pain quickly and naturally for FREE… and without pills!

Perseverance, love of competition set track athletes apart Nugent, Hall, Sprout honored for high school achievements

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Valor Christian’s Anna Hall and Drake Nugent of Highlands Ranch finished their high school track and field careers with rewarding seasons.

Cole Sprout of Valor Christian lived up to expectations.

Hall was named the 2019 Colorado Community Media South Metro Girls Track Athlete of the Year while Nugent and Sprout were co-winners of the boys Track Athlete of the Year award.

An ankle injury kept Hall out of action for more than five weeks before the May 16-18 state meet, but she recovered in time to win two individual events and run on two state champion record-setting relays.

Hall, a senior headed for the University of Georgia who set a national pentathlon record with 4,302 points in February, won the 100-meter hurdles (14.18) and the 300 hurdles (41.70) to give her seven individual career 4A and 5A state titles. She also anchored two record-setting relay teams, 1:37.00 in the 4x200 and meet record in the 4x400.

“If I could pick a word for my season it would probably be perseverance” said Hall. “I overcame a lot just to just being able to run at the state meet. We all had to step up our game this year in 5A and I’m really proud of all of us for rising to the occasion. There are some events in 4A that are a little bit stronger and then there are some events in 5A that are stronger. But overall 5A has a lot more depth.”

Valor coach Brian Kula expects more from Hall.

“She has a bright future,” said Kula.

“She has all the tools and the right work ethic. She has the opportunity to do something special overall in track and field.”

Nugent, a lineman who will be playing football at Stanford, won his third consecutive 5A state shot put championship with a throw of 56-02.76 coming off an injury-plagued senior football season.

“This year was my biggest competition,” he said. “I knew the Valor kid (discus champion Cian Quiroga) was a spinner, and spinners usually have to get everything right with their technique to throw that far. A 62-feet throw is impressive. I didn’t know if he was going to hit that again.

“Part of me feels kind of lucky that he wasn’t on. I also worked pretty hard for it. I didn’t throw as far as I would have liked but it was good enough.

This title meant the most just because my sophomore year no one was that impressive. Last year I threw like 55 feet and won by like 5 feet. This year I knew I had the competition.”

Valor Christian’s Anna Hall is the Colorado Community Media South Metro Girls Track Athlete of the year.

Valor Christian junior Cole Sprout is the Colorado Community Media South Metro Boys Track Co-Athlete of the Year.

FILE PHOTO As it turned out, Highlands Ranch coach Lou Krauss feels the competition might have helped Nugent.

“Drake has tremendous work ethic,” said Krauss. “He has grown in strength and technique due to his efforts in the weight room and the practice field.

He is almost OCD when it comes to

attention to detail. He is the ultimate competitor. He looks forward to being challenged and going against the best whether it is football or throwing.”

Sprout , a junior, set a Colorado prep 3,200 record of 9:01.53 this spring, won the 1,500 run at the Class 5A state track meet in 9:11.84 and also won the

1,600 in 4:13.78. He won both events in 2018 at the 4A state track meet and is a two-time state individual state cross country champion.

“A lot of people expected me to win,” said Sprout. “I’ve learned to block out the pressure the best I can. I love to compete.”

Creek athlete makes waves Cherry Creek senior swimmer Brendan Eckerman JIM BENTON

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Senior Brendan Eckerman will always remember the fun he had swimming for Cherry Creek this season.

He competed in three previous CHSAA Class 5A State Swimming Championships with second place as his best finish, but this season he climbed to the top of the awards podium four times.

Eckerman, who will move up a level and swim at Wisconsin next season, helped lead Creek to the state team title and is the 2019 Colorado Community Media South Metro Boys Swim-

mer of the Year.

He was first in the 50 freestyle with a time of 20.69 and captured the state championship in the 100 freestyle in 45.62.

Eckerman was the anchor on two relay teams that won state titles.

The 200-yard freestyle relay team of Nikolas Silolahti, Tommy Salvetti, Blake Jorgens and Eckerman won in 1:24.73.

He capped off a banner state meet by teaming with Silolahti, Lars Hanna and Bryce Ortanes in winning the 400 freestyle relay with a time of 3:04.20.

“I had the most fun this season,” admitted Eckerman. “I worked the hardest this season. It was great all year. I had a great state meet. I won or was part of the winning team in every event I swan. That was definitely a great feeling.”

Summer is a prime time for educators seeking new positions While studenzts across the nation are celebrating the completion of another school year and getting into summer fun, teachers and educations professionals may only be taking a short break as they prepare for a new position.

When it comes to searching for a new job, most industries are essentially stagnant during the summer months. CEOs taking vacations, budgets looking thin for a new fiscal year, and many plan on waiting until the New Year. However, that’s opposite for schools and colleges.

Schools have just under three months to make sure staffing levels are where they need them to be, which means they will be updating the “help wanted” section of their websites and going out searching.

For the educator, that means updating resumes with

current information, looking in districts near your home, and researching each district and what they have to offer. Start submitting for the open positions that fit your goals of advancement or change.

Districts aim to get new stuff under contract quickly, which means your window for finding the new position is only open for so long. Most schools conduct job interviews throughout the month of June and in early July before administrators take a short break themselves.

Without public notices, the government wouldn’t have to say anything else.

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

Notices are meant to be noticed.

Read your public notices and get involved!
