Urban renewal authority faces end City council looks at dropping Littleton Invests for Tomorrow By Kyle Harding kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Mike Warren and his 3-year-old son, Hosea, spent Sept. 3 at the parking lot of South Suburban Ice Arena, 6580 S. Vine St., Centennial, for the fifth annual Touch-a-Truck extravaganza. “This is great,” Warren said. “He loves seeing all the trucks.” When asked what piece of machinery was his favorite, Hosea responded, “The fire truck.” It was a common answer among the young attendees. The free event, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., gave kids the chance to explore a variety of machinery, including trucks, tractors, emergency vehicles and a Zamboni that made piles of snow on the cement. It was the perfect photo op for parents and grandparents. Touch-a-Truck usually has between 600 and 800 guests, said Dirk Doty, recreation coordinator of South Suburban. “It’s fun for all kids, all ages,” Doty said, “and it gives families something to do over Labor Day weekend.”

Months after an ordinance to abolish Littleton’s urban renewal authority was tabled, leading to a series of study sessions, the ordinance will come back before the city council next month. Critics of Littleton Invests for Tomorrow, or LIFT, contend it is a waste of money to have an urban renewal authority that has no projects, and say the entity has been poorly managed. The agency’s defenders say urban renewal is critical for the long-term development of the city. Mayor Bruce Beckman says urban renewal as a concept is not bad, but he seems to think LIFT is irredeemable. “It seems to find ways to spend taxpayer money without results,” he said, referencing LIFT’s hiring of a consultant for a blight study as well as the hiring of a public relations firm and attorney fees for a lawsuit it lost to the county over agricultural land in a plan area on Santa Fe Drive. Bill Hopping, one of LIFT’s proponents on the city council, concedes it may have been poorly managed, but says urban renewal can be used to bring desirable projects to the city that might otherwise not be economically viable, citing The Streets at SouthGlenn in west Centennial as an example. “It enables projects to reach a point of feasibility,” he said. Abolishing LIFT would be a rare move. Colorado Municipal League Deputy LIFT continues on Page 5

With two weeks of classes gone by, Damon Runyon Elementary School in Littleton opened its doors to its neighbors to see the newly renovated school on Aug. 1. While the school received a new roof and an interior remodeling last year, students took classes at the Whitman building at the Options Secondary Program campus, about a mile away from Runyon, as the school underwent an interior renovation. Students seem to be pleased with the upgrades to their classrooms. “I like that it doesn’t have the poles,” said fifth-grader Sophie Mangiameli, referring to poles that supported the failing roof prior to the renovation.

18th Judicial District embraces digital process

Holly Collins owns Adventures in Dance studio in Littleton. Courtesy photo

By Kyle Harding kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com District Attorney George Brauchler says that by embracing digital discovery, the 18th Judicial District is a leader in bringing the courtroom into 2016. Brauchler volunteered the district to be the first in Colorado to launch eDiscovery, making it mandatory on Aug. 22. Discovery, the process by which attorneys obtain evidence, is streamlined by the digital process,

HELLO

... My Name Is

A glimpse of the people in our community

HOLLY COLLINS Dance studio owner, funeral choir singer About me I own Adventures in Dance studio in Littleton. I’ve been in business for 13 years and I’ve lived here for 20 years. My parents met and were married in Colorado, but I was born in California. What got you into dancing? In kindergarten, my mother signed me up for a tap dancing class. It was a disaster. I could not tell my right from my left. My mother was traumatized and banned me from dancing. I took it up in college to spite her. My music teachers

recommended dance to help me with complex rhythms and I joined the social dance club at San Jose State University and became the secretary of the club. How did you get into teaching dance? I went to other studios to research new steps. I went to an Arthur Murray Dance Center and the owner offered me a job. I’ve taught ballroom, Latin, swing, salsa and runway dance lessons ever since. What do you like about living and doing business in Littleton? I like the Mayberry feel of old town Littleton, and I like living in a place where everyone knows my name. Do you have any hobbies besides dance? I produce historically accurate cartoon princess dances that are used by the Frontier Girls Club. I also like to hike, including 14ers, and I sing in a funeral choir. I also sew, and I make many of my own costumes for my dances. If you have suggestions for My Name is… contact Kyle Harding at kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Brauchler said. “People had to physically come in to pick up discovery,” he said, noting that in the past, attorneys would drag around large files full of paperwork. “Now, they go to court with their laptop,” Brauchler said. “The future is the direction we’re headed now.” Brauchler said that the digital discovery process will lead to fewer hearings being continued to later dates, which often happens when defense attorneys have not received all of the discovery, and can cause a ripple effect, postponing other hearings. “I think we’re going to create an extra level of efficiency,” he said.

of an unnamed victim in the early days of the Littleton Police Department’s search for Voight, 36, who has still not been found. Her family reported her missing on July 8. Littleton Police Department spokesman Cmdr. Trent Cooper said the case was unrelated to Voight’s disappearance. Beier was due in court for a preliminary hearing on Sept. 9. Brauchler said the case had become “factually intertwined” with the investigation into Voight’s disappearance and law enforcement and prosecutors would have to turn Voight over discovery in the case to defense attorneys.

CPR, first-aid training teaches crucial skills Littleton center available to care providers, laypeople

AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION’S CPR GUIDELINES According to the American Heart Association, untrained bystanders should provide CPR using only chest compressions for adult victims of cardiac arrest, continuing until the arrival of rescuers with additional training or an automatic external defibrillator.

By Kyle Harding kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com In late August, a student in a class at Colorado Cardiac CPR and First Aid Training in Littleton experienced chest pains and other symptoms of cardiac problems. Luckily, she was surrounded by people who knew exactly what to do. An ambulance was called, she went to the emergency room, and was out of the hospital within days, owner Timothy Snyder said. While Colorado Cardiac offers certification courses for people working in medi-

the time, they don’t.” However, Snyder said, in the rare cases an emergency does occur, a little knowledge can go a long way. And keeping up with the latest stan-

dards is important. The American Heart Association has continually updated CPR guidelines over the years as new research has been done. Over the years, more emphasis has been placed on the use of chest compressions in the technique, which is used for an emergency response to cardiac arrest. Providing rescue breathing has been de-emphasized. “They’re realizing that people have enough oxygen already in their blood,” said Snyder, who also serves with South Adams County Paramedics in Commerce City. He said getting that oxygen pumped to the brain and heart to preserve function until definitive care can be administered is the most important part of CPR, and that calling to get emergency help en route is the most important part of bystander care.

FDA: Mixing opioids, sedatives can be a lethal combination Danger already known, but death toll has risen over recent years By Matthew Perrone Associated Press Health officials are strengthening warnings about the potentially fatal consequences of mixing prescription painkillers and sedatives like Xanax, saying the combination can lead to breathing problems, coma and death. The Food and Drug Administration said it will add a boxed warning — the strongest type — to nearly 400 medications about the interaction, including opioid

painkillers, opioid-containing cough medicines and benzodiazepines, which are used to treat anxiety, insomnia and seizure disorders. Painkillers and sedatives are among the most commonly prescribed medications in the U.S., but both drug types slow users’ heart rate and breathing. FDA officials said the number of opioid patients receiving sedatives increased by 41 percent, or roughly 2.5 million patients, between 2002 and 2014. Overdose deaths linked to nonmedical use of the drug combination tripled between 2004 and 2011, according to figures from the agency. The federal announcement

followed a petition from health directors in 16 states and 12 cities filed in February. “We said, ‘we cannot wait’ and called upon the FDA to save lives now,” said Baltimore City Health Commissioner Dr. Leana Wen, who spoke to reporters on an FDA call about the announcement. Wen, an emergency medicine specialist, cited federal figures estimating that nearly 1 in 3 accidental opioid overdose deaths in the U.S. also involve sedatives. While current drug labels and medical guidelines already caution against mixing the drugs, Wen said doctors still routinely prescribe them in combination. For instance, a patient injured in

a car accident might receive an opioid for pain and a benzodiazepine to control muscle spasms. FDA officials said they hoped the elevated warning would get the attention of doctors who have not heeded earlier notices. Along with the new drug labels, the FDA will require drug manufacturers to distribute pharmacy pamphlets to patients highlighting the risks of the combination. The FDA has come under fire for not doing more to stem to tide of fatal overdoses tied to prescription opioids, potentially addictive medications that include OxyContin, Vicodin, Percocet and numerous generic equivalents. The number

LIFT

ing not for the urban blight it was intended to fix, but for economic development, and to subsidize development that would have happened without it. “Everybody wants their piece of the pie,” Brzeczek said.

Continued from Page 1

Director Kevin Bommer said Windsor and Castle Pines are the only other municipalities in the state he knows of that have gotten rid of urban renewal authorities in similar fashion. Learning from the past? Urban renewal has a controversial history in Littleton. LIFT grew out of the Littleton Riverfront Authority, which was founded in 1980 to use tax-increment financing — in which the additional tax money anticipated is used to fund a project — to develop an area along the South Platte River. Its signature project was an ambitious shopping mall and mixed-use development, the Riverfront Festival Center, at the corner of Santa Fe Drive and Bowles Avenue. The center, anchored by an upscale grocery market, opened in 1985 and was a financial failure that never filled all of its retail spaces. A hotel and office buildings planned for the site were never built and the project could not raise enough taxincrement money to pay off its bonds. The site was vacant by 1989 and was eventually bought by Echostar to be used as corporate headquarters in 1997. The authority’s ability to collect tax-increment funds from the Riverfront project expired in 2008 and its outstanding debts were settled. The board continued to meet once a year to submit a budget. But in 2013, the LRA was given a new mission and four urban renewal plan areas — Columbine Square, Santa Fe, north Broadway and Littleton Boulevard — and a new name. Jim Taylor joined the LRA

of deaths linked to the medications has increased more than fourfold since 1999. FDA Commissioner Dr. Robert Califf has pledged to take a series of steps designed to reduce prescription opioid abuse. His confirmation by Senate lawmakers was held up earlier this year by lawmakers concerned about the FDA’s approach to tackling the issue, which has been termed an epidemic by public health authorities. In 2014, more than 17,000 people died from overdoses linked to opioid pain medications, including drugs like oxycodone, hydrocodone and fentanyl, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The Riverfront Festival Center, a failed upscale mall built using tax increment collected by the Littleton Riverfront Authority, was purchased by Echostar in 1997 and is now a Dish Network call center. Littleton Invests for Tomorrow, which grew from the LRA, may be abolished by the city council next month. Photo by Kyle Harding board in 1981 as a liaison from the city council and was the board’s chair from 1987 until he left the board in early 2015. He said the board had been looking for more opportunities, and discussions with city staff members led to its revival. But no projects are underway in any of the areas, which is a point opponents use to argue against LIFT. “The plans should have a project — none of them have a project,” said Carol Brzeczek, a Littleton resident and an outspoken critic of the authority. Because there are no projects, the LIFT board voted last month to terminate its executive director, Jim Rees. ‘Long-term planning’ Earlier this year, the Arapahoe

County District Court sided with the county and ruled that Littleton had improperly included more than 100 acres of agricultural land within the Santa Fe plan area, leading to much of the plan area being cut out. Brzeczek said she began studying the state’s urban renewal law in 2012 when she learned that the authority was looking for new plan areas, even spending money on a consultant to identify blighted areas. She said the LRA should have been disbanded once it was done collecting tax-increment money from the Riverfront project. But Hopping said not having projects doesn’t mean the authority should be disbanded. “It’s not about today — it’s about long-term planning,” he said, saying that most economi-

cally successful cities in the state have urban renewal authorities. Hopping said using urban renewal for smaller projects — and researching the viability of the projects ahead of time — could avoid failures like the Riverfront Festival Center. “It seems to me that they didn’t do their due diligence on economic feasibility,” he said. Former LRA and LIFT chair Taylor said that Littleton’s measures limiting how urban renewal is used — requiring voter approval of projects and barring eminent domain — render the approach harmless. “There’s absolutely no harm ever done to leave urban renewal in place,” Taylor said. But critics of urban renewal say authorities all over the state are using tax-increment financ-

Moving forward Councilmembers Jerry Valdes and Peggy Cole said at the last study session, on Aug. 23, that developers will still come to the city without an urban renewal authority. Beckman said Hopping’s example of The Streets at Southglenn is a roughly 15-acre site, while Littleton’s plan areas are larger. “We chose to apply urban renewal to hundreds of acres,” he said. Hopping said using tax-increment financing does not deprive other public entities of funding, as the increment would not be there if not for the project. “In reality, if the project is never developed, the taxes stay at the base level,” he said. Even while no plans are in place, increment is still collected from the plan areas. Abolishing the authority would include an agreement to return that money to the city. Hopping says most complaints about LIFT seem to be with how it has been administered, and that getting rid of it entirely would be an overreaction. Bommer said it is more common for authorities to not be renewed after 25 years, at which point their ability to collect increment expires, than to be shut down by a city council. But that may be what happens in Littleton soon, as the first reading of the ordinance to abolish it will be on the agenda for the Oct. 4 council meeting.

A few tips for a tech-driven world Tech experts weigh in on teens and internet use

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com Teenagers are more digitally connected than ever: Three-quarters own or have access to a smartphone, 24 percent go online almost constantly, and 92 percent go online daily, Pew Research Center reports. The digital world is used for a number of activities — from building relationships to accessing schoolwork to online shopping. But it can also be a vulnerable space for teenagers. “You have to think about what infor-

mation kids have access to,” said Jackie Burhans, managing partner of CMIT Solutions of Denver Tech Center, which specializes in information technology. “They still need to be aware of some of the dangers and risks of using technology.” Burhans and her husband, James Howald, also a managing partner of CMIT Solutions, have extensive experience with internet technology. The duo helps clients recover files, prevent malware and protect servers. They also have a son in high school. “When your dealing with adults, it’s slightly different than when you’re dealing with kids,” Burhans said, “but it’s all about security.” As the school year kicks off, the couple has a few tips for parents and teens im-

mersed in the world of technology.

Tips for cyberspace If a hacker gets ahold of an internet user’s credit card number or banking information, it can be reversed and oftentimes resolved, Howald said. That’s not the case with cyberbullying. “The area in technology where I see a lasting, permanent impact on kids is when they get into a cyberbullying situation on social media,” he said. “Unfortunately, there isn’t a straightforward way to fix this.” Burhans and Howald recommend that parents have an open discussion with teens on what social media sites are active. Some are mainstream, such as Face-

book and Instagram. But others are new to the digital sphere, such as Whisper, YikYak and Afterschool — three apps that allow anonymous posting. Anonymous apps are positive in that they let users express themselves, but they are often filled with inappropriate content and can encourage bullying, according to Common Sense Media, a website that provides information on media and technology. If a teenager is being bullied in cyberspace, he or she should keep a record of every detail and talk to an adult, said Douglas County Deputy Jason Blanchard. Blanchard, who also does community outreach, said teenagers know social media sites better than any other generation. Tech continues on Page 7

“I’m not going to say that one is better or worse than the other,” he said. “Every single one needs to be approached with caution because you can’t guarantee anyone’s identity.” Tips for surfing the web “Think before you click the link” is a term Burhans uses at work and at home. An internet user should always consider where an online link is redirecting him or her to avoid scams or phishing — fraud that involves stealing personal information by posing as a legitimate company. Anti-malware software adds protection by blocking spam, viruses and popup pages on a laptop or desktop. The couple also advises teens to be mindful when online shopping. They say stick to nationally known online vendors, such as Amazon. “Teenagers on a budget may find discounted retail on an unknown site,” Burhans said. “They might not receive the product but then someone has their credit card info.”

Tips for tech devices Burhans caught herself browsing Amazon when she had other priorities, so she downloaded an extension that prevents access to distracting websites during work hours. An extension is an add-on program that modifies or enhances the Chrome web browser. “I actually learned it from my son,” Burhans said. “It’s handy when I need to focus.” There are several tweaks in the tech world that can benefit users of all ages. StayFocusd is an extension that restricts the amount of time a user spends on certain websites. The f.lux extension changes the computer’s display color to adapt to the time of day. Web Timer is an extension that tracks web activity and presents the data to the user in a pie chart. Thousands of extensions serve different purposes, from parental controls to work productivity to online protection. Common Sense Media recommends that parents explore online tools — such as extensions — with their kids. “Learning how to use technology appropriately and discovering how to make it work for your needs are key to getting the best out of technology — while minimizing risks,” the site says.

The right way to do a ‘to-do’ list As I attended a training session and workshop around accountability and goal setting last week, the facilitator took the class through a few very interesting exercises. And as many times as I have either attended such workshops in the past or have even taught or coached on the topic, I realized that I was either not doing the behaviors that had brought me success in the past, or I had stopped doing them for some reason. Now my “to-do” list is not the issue. I still write down my “To-Do” list the night before or early in the morning before my day gets started. But there were a few problems that became very apparent as I realized where I started cutting corners. The first problem was that I stopped writing down the “why” next to each item on my “to-do” list. Understanding the “why” is so important in helping to prioritize what really needs to get done. As I sat in the class and flipped back through my notebook at my “to-do” lists from the past month or so, I realized that my lists just kept getting longer and longer with no and I was just muscling my way through what needed to get done. Some days I had more than 30 items on the

list, and only got to 10 or 15 things. Now part of me says that I should feel a sense of accomplishment for getting those 10 to 15 things done, but on the other hand there were 15 to 20 things that I didn’t get done. The second problem was that I stopped atMichael Norton taching the items on my WINNING “to-do” list to my personal and professional WORDS goals. The “why” helps in addressing that, but the more specific that we can be when we set our goals, take daily action toward the achievement of those goals, and then have the discipline and commitment to actually do what needs to get done, the more meaningful our “to-do” list becomes. And the result is that we move closer to reaching our goals. The third problem, and maybe the biggest problem. was that I realized I stopped delegat-

ing where I could. I stopped listing the names of people who could help me or who I could ask to take over a project or opportunity. I developed a mentality that I would load up my list and I will conquer everything on my own. Maybe you are a list maker too, maybe not. If you are, I would encourage you to remember to write down the “why” next to each item on your list; take a less-is-more approach and focus on the most important items; attach the item on your “to-do” list to a specific goal, whether that goal is a near term goal or long term goal; and lastly, write down who you may be able to ask for help or delegate a task to. How about you? Are you making lists for the sake of making lists? Do you have a very concise list that is tied to your goals and dreams? Either way I would love to hear all about how you organize your “to-do” lists at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we can learn to manage what we do with our “to-do” lists, it really will be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

Great hobby for kids in the worst of situations

Ron Hellbusch

OUTDOOR LIVING

There is something special about seeing a child with a fishing pole in his hand and an expression of intensity on his face. Kids and fishing go together, kind of like Tom Sawyer in the quiet, peaceful story days of the past. The national fishing organization, Bassmaster, and its staff said it best in their recent monthly publication, describing how children and fishing are a wholesome combina-

tion: “...Fishing is about moral values and decency…It’s part of the fabric of our society… There’s nothing much immoral that’s going to happen when you’re trying to catch a fish. It’s legal, it’s honorable, and it’s fun…Trying to catch a fish teaches youngsters the value of working toward a goal, that sometimes doesn’t go our way, that’s how life works … Anglers are pretty good people … people of decent respectable values that can constructively teach young people by showing them … What better way is there to show a young boy or girl how to enjoy a good, valued day in nature’s environment safe from drugs, crime, being harmful to others or tempted mischief.” It seems very clear, while most likely coincidental, CASA (the Court Appointed Special Advocates) of Adams & Broomfield Counties and Bassmasters have a similar mission, a similar perspective. The CASA volunteers carry a significant mantle for young children who have suffered from abuse and neglect. This nonprofit group of judicial, legal and community leaders support and stand strong with young children as they move through the judicial and legal system of care and protection. CASA recruits and professionally trains volunteer advocates, who are assigned by court judges to be a voice for CASA children. Lindsay Lierman, executive director of CASA serving the 17th Judicial District in Adams and Broomfield Counties, and program director Vickie Ricord highlighted specific programs and outcomes as examples of the Hellbusch continues on Page 11

Low-maintenance name just does its job Over breakfast coffee, a friend asked me, “Bessie Smith, Kate Smith or Patti Smith?” I said, “Is it a slow news day?” It’s never a slow news day anymore, now that current events travel in a heartbeat. It’s never slow enough to write a column about the most common last name in the United States. Or is it? I don’t think you look here for the news. Maybe to be removed from the news for a few minutes. Jennifer asked me if I ever regretted having a one-syllable name, which I thought was a brilliant question. We were having a conversation about regrets. My biggest one is a complete disconnection from music, other than listening to it. Hers is something that will remain between us. I said that I had sometimes wished my last name were something other than Smith. It is easy to pronounce and it is easy to spell. It is the most common last name in the United States, and ahead of second place Brown by over half a million. Everyone knows at least one Smith. On the other hand, I’m not sure there is a single Smith in the Middle East. Sure, I have thought about a more distinctive name.

I know a number of people who have changed their names. And if a woman marries, she can go from a Pfaltzgraff to a less unmanageable name just by saying “I do.” I have named a number of of pets Craig Marshall Smith and paintings, but no one asked me QUIET I wanted for DESPERATION what a last name. Or what I wanted for a first name. I only have four syllables in my entire name. Some of us get nicknames. Nicknames slid off of me. All but one - Smitty - which I passed on to my dog. It fits him more than it fits me. There are, of course, pages of famous Smiths, like Bessie, Kate and Patti. Kate has been mostly forgotten, even though she once had her own television program. Katharine Hepburn married a man named Smith, but refused to have her name Smith continues on Page 11

‘Songs and Stories’ Christian concert set Steven Curtis Chapman and friends will play Sept. 23 By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Award-winning Christian singer and songwriter Steve Curtis Chapman will be joined by friends Mac Powell and Brandon Heath for a program called “Songs and Stories” when they visit south metro Denver later this month. “This will be a little different than the traditional concert,” Chapman said in a Sept. 1 phone interview. “The three of us will be on stage together. We will sing and play together. But we will also take time to talk about the stories that inspired the songs as well as inspirational stories about how a song has touched lives.” The three artists will perform at 7 p.m. Sept. 23 at Denver First Church of the Nazarene, 3800 E. Hampden Ave., Cherry Hills Village. General admission tickets are $30 and VIP tickets are $75. For concert or ticket information call the church at 303-761-8370. Chapman, 53, grew up with music. “My dad was a guitar teacher, so playing, singing and listening to music has always been my passion,” he said. “I loved sports but my asthma severely limited any involvement in athletics. So, I focused my passion, hobby and love on music.” He began singing in church and his dad played the guitar and the family sang together in services in his native Kentucky. He said his focus from an early age is writing songs about his faith and his relationship with God. “Dad urged me to go to college and train to get a real job because he knew how tough it was to make a living as a musician,” Chapman said. “I tried to follow his advice and enrolled to study pre-med. I found that wasn’t for me. Since I had some good contacts in the music industry from working a summer at Opryland in Nashville, I left college in the

importance of child advocacy by the CASA volunteers. “Ninety percent of children ages 3-5 in foster care with a CASA volunteer in Adams and Broomfield Counties are enrolled in early childhood education, compared to 46 percent in foster care nationwide,” Lierman pointed out. And “99 percent of children in foster care with a CASA foster home in the 17th Judicial District graduate high school by age 18, compared to 27.5 percent across Colorado,” Ricord noted. CASA balances the guidance by the volunteer advocates and the challenge children deal with through the courts with seeking the elements of a normal kid’s life. Development director Ken Parks indicated the board of directors and staff develops a wide variety of activities in which the children and foster parents can take part. “For example,” Parks noted, “children can enjoy seasonal events, such as the upcoming fall festival and holiday party. In addition CASA volunteer advocates often

changed to Kate Smith. I don’t have a favorite Smith, other than my father. A Smith captained the Titanic, and a Smith was one of Charlie’s “Angels.” The name doesn’t conjure anything like Picasso does. Or Da Vinci. It just sort of sits there, quietly, with its hands folded across its lap, without, well, making a name for itself. Take Shakespeare. Take Dickens. Take Hemingway. Now those are names. If I were to say “Barrymore,” a film

1980s and moved to Nashville to pursue my musical career.” He started his musical career focusing on writing Christian songs. He said one of his great early thrills was when Glen Campbell, a musical hero of his, recorded one of the songs he had written. The talented musician said there is no single answer to how he writes a song. “Sometimes I get a lyric idea in my head, make sure I record it on my phone and start from there,” he said. “The same is true of the music. Sometime I hum or sing a short part of the music and record it on the phone at once.” He said once an idea for the lyrics and music of a song is there, the real work begins. “When everything flows, I sometimes write a song in a few hours,” he said. “However, there are also ideas that didn’t become songs for many years.” Campbell continued his songwriting and singing career and in 1987 recorded his first album. In a career spanning almost 30 years, Campbell has recorded more than 20 albums and has won more awards for songs he has written and songs he has recorded than any other Christian music artist. “I have performed in concerts around the country and around the world,” he said. “I have loved all of them but I really love the songs and stories like we are doing on this tour. We did a song and stories tour three years ago. The audience seems to like it and I loved it, so we are doing the same format again, and my hope is the music and the stories touch the hearts of those who are there with us.” Chapman was married in 1984. He and his wife Mary Beth have three sons, plus they adopted three girls from China. Adoption has been a focus for the Chapmans and they joined forces to write three books on the topic. They also share their faith in other ways, including building a medical center named Maria’s Big House of Hope in China.

enjoy outings together with their CASA children, a walk in the park, and a visit to an ice cream shop, or working together on homework.” Such was the day of fun for the kids last June 10 when the CASA team hosted a “Fishing Day” at Ketner Reservoir in Westminster’s Kensington Park. Local businesses showed their support. Cabela’s donated fishing rods and reels and Walmart supplied the food. Westminster’s park staff, police and fire personnel spent time fishing and conversing with the kids. CASA staff provided a tasty barbecue and this columnist had the privilege of coordinating the event. Professionally trained CASA volunteer advocates represent more than 500 children annually in the two counties, and the organization looks to provide advocates for an additional 600 children who deserve support, encouragement, a normal life and someone close who cares. A call to CASA at 303-654-3378 could open a door and your heart to that good feeling of sharing, a sense of making a difference in a child’s life and, possibly, an extraordinary day fishing with a new young friend.

scholar could go back for generations, and name names. I am, however, very grateful that my name is not beyond the grasp of pronunciation or spelling. When I was younger and a complete introvert, having a name like Schimmelpfennig would have done me in. I know someone named Schimmelpfennig. It’s the near opposite of Smith. One site says that it is the 5,523,051st most common name in the world. A rose by any other name, though, right? Not really. How would you like to order a dozen red schimmelpfennigs for your girlfriend? Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

O

n a sunny August morning, Kathy Letson sits inside her Centennial bakery and talks about how she started her business, her voice drowned out by the doorbell’s ringing as a steady stream of customers comes and goes. Since she opened Gluten Escape in 2012, Letson has seen her business grow as demand for gluten-free foods has increased. Though her success might seem to be the result of savvy marketing and good timing, her reasons for starting the shop were personal. “I come into this with a mother’s heart,” she said. In 1998, Letson’s son Nick was born, and it soon became By Tom Skelley | tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com apparent something wasn’t right. His teeth weren’t forming and he cago.

WHY GET RID OF GLUTEN? Reasons for going glutenfree vary, and the science is still out on some of the health effects of eating gluten. The medical community has established a clear cause between gluten and celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity, also known as gluten intolerance. Anecdotal evidence makes the case that a gluten-free diet can alleviate many symptoms. Highlands Ranch nutritionist Denise DeRosier says many of her clients tell her they have improved energy levels, reduced joint pain and see better behavior in their children after going gluten-free. She also said that for people dealing with the inflammation of multiple sclerosis or digestive problems associated with chemotherapy, “gluten is just adding fuel to the fire.” Angela Baird of Parker is another certified nutritionist who lists numerous health benefits from eliminating gluten. She says she’s had clients suffering from depression, fatigue, skin rashes, migraines, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome and other symptoms who have all seen their issues disappear after removing gluten. Baird says she has had “one or two (clients) out of the few hundred” she’s seen who didn’t report improvement, but she’s quick to point out she isn’t certain that they completely eliminated the substance from their diet. “I always tell people to give it two weeks of your life and just see if you feel better,” she says. “Everyone can do something for two weeks.” — Tom Skelley

Though it may be a healthier choice for some to eat gluten-free meals, DeRosier said she doesn’t advertise her cooking as gluten-free when she entertains. “I don’t say ‘Come over for this glutenfree meal’ because the expectation is that it’s going to taste awful,” she said. “After dinner, I’ll say ‘By the way, it also happens to be gluten-free.’ “ Adapting your taste Chris Lehn owns Yumbana Shoppe in Castle Rock. After he, his wife and sons tested positive for gluten sensitivity, they quickly became dissatisfied with glutenfree fare in grocery stores. Lehn took matters into his own hands. “Unfortunately, as a gluten-free person you find yourself adapting your taste to what’s available instead of the other way around,” Lehn said. “Our goal was to make a product that is as good or better as you remember as a non-gluten-free person.” Focusing on wholesale and online shoppers, Yumbana Shoppe has made a name for itself producing a variety of pies, cakes and cookies, not to mention the “yummy banana” bread that helped Lehn arrive at the company’s name. Yumbana products are on King Soopers shelves and Lehn said he is “knocking on the door” of Safeway and other grocery stores. Being in large-scale distribution keeps Lehn from meeting many customers, Lehn said. But feedback at the recent Taste of Douglas County and Incredible Edible Gluten-Free Food Fair in Denver has been “very, very positive.” “We literally saw hundreds of people come by, and we could hear some of them whispering about us before they got to the booth,” he said. “It was really encouraging.” He added that many parents thank him for offering treats their children otherwise wouldn’t be able to enjoy, like birthday cake and snacks for school. From behind the counter of her brickand-mortar bakery, Letson said she’s heard the same comments from parents

and other customers. Gluten Escape makes a variety of baked goods, from pastries to pizza dough to pretzels, and Letson said she often makes special recipes based on customer suggestions written on an “idea board” in the shop. “We’re not here to push a product on anyone,” she said. “We’re here to try to give people what they want.” Customer loyalty is a point of pride with Letson. She said she received 80 to 100 calls a day when the store experienced a recent hiatus as it transitioned from its old location in the Denver Tech Center to the Centennial store. Letson was surprised, she said, when customers drove through blizzard conditions to receive free balls of pizza dough and pumpkin pies before the reopening. She couldn’t sell the items at the time without a health department license, so she asked her erstwhile customers to donate as they saw fit to the St. Francis Center in Denver instead. Her customer retention since reopening in December has been over 80 percent, Letson said. “When someone can go to Walmart and get gluten-free products,” she said, “that says a lot.” Not ‘just a phase’ Like most trends, the popularity of the gluten-free diet has attracted criticism, and detractors wonder if the gluten-free diet is more about money than medicine.

Chris Daniels and the Kings to play in free show at ACC Waring Theatre will welcome musician who taught at school By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com The unique sound of Chris Daniels and the Kings will fill the Waring Theatre at Arapahoe Community College with rock and R&B music on Sept. 15 in a free concert at 7:30 p.m. A 7 p.m. “meet the artist” reception will welcome Daniels back to ACC, where he taught for seven years (business of music, guitar, banjo, music theory). He still serves the college as chair of the Music Audio Technology program, according to program coordinator Dr. Chuck Haarhues, who says he arrived at ACC during the last year Daniels taught there. Daniels said Haarhues has been the driving force in developing a recording program that is “best in the community college system.” It had just started when Daniels was there. “Chuck is light-years ahead of the 2006 ACC.” Daniels talked about his band’s new recording, “Funky to the Bone,” released in March. There are seven band members now, he said, including vocalist/ guitar player Freddi Henchi, who played with Freddi-Henchi and the Soul Setters in Arizona and then Colorado. “We met and he has appeared with the Kings for a couple years, and plays on the new album,” Daniels said. Much of the music on the program will come from the recording. (LPs will be on sale — many young people prefer them, he finds.) Daniels is now an assistant professor at CU-Denver where he teaches three classes on the music business, about 120 students. Although the band has made 21 trips

They don’t travel so much in the winter. “We have a couple teachers and others with straight jobs, but we will have done 70 shows this year,” Daniels said. He writes new music “on better days” and says, at 63, he’s feeling well. In 2010, he was hospitalized with nearfatal leukemia. “I’m alive because of a bone marrow transplant from my sister,” he said. “It’s an easy way to save a life.” He hopes concert audience members will get registered in the bone marrow registry. (There will be literature at the concert.) The concert is free, but donations will be accepted to fight leukemia and lymphoma. Daniels looks forward to an East Coast tour where he will visit with 5- and 8-yearold grandkids who live in Brooklyn, New York, he said. And he’s starting on the next record, which he hopes will be finished in 2017. Actually, there are two records in the future: one with the Kings and another in bluegrass style. For 12 years, he has been Daniels continues on Page 14

troenterologist with Rocky Mountain Gastroenterology, said unless a patient has celiac disease or NCGS, there are no proven benefits to eliminating gluten from their diet. “People have gone crazy saying you’ll be cured of everything if you go off gluten,” she said. “The only thing you’ll cure for certain is celiac.” That said, she added there are no nutritional benefits to eating gluten, either. “If people come in and they’re doing something that improves their symptoms — they’re pretty happy, they’re improving their quality of life — there’s no reason to put it back in their diet,” MichaletzOnody said. “There’s nothing beneficial from it.” One aspect of the gluten-free diet that isn’t in dispute is its cost. Consumer Reports released a study in November 2014 that found a vast difference in the cost between gluten-free foods and their counterparts. Examples from the study are Duncan Hines regular brownie mix, which costs about 8 cents per serving, while Betty Crocker’s glutenfree mix costs 28 cents per serving. The per-serving cost of Nabisco’s Multigrain Wheat Thins is 31 cents, but the company’s gluten-free Sea Salt & Pepper Rice Thins are 57 cents per serving. DeRosier said she sometimes meets people who ask whether it’s all just a ploy to sell trendy, expensive food products. “I do have people who will come up to me at parties and ask if it’s all just a big marketing scam,” DeRosier said. “That’s

THE GOODS ON GLUTEN The Celiac Disease Foundation defines gluten as “a general name for the proteins found in wheat (wheatberries, durum, emmer, semolina, spelt, farina, farro, graham, KAMUT khorasan wheat and einkorn), rye, barley and triticale… that helps foods maintain their shape, acting as a glue that holds food together.” Gluten can be found in many types of foods, even ones that would not be expected. The Big Four The four most common grains containing gluten are: Wheat — commonly found in breads, baked goods, pastas, soups, cereals, sauces and salad dressing Barley — commonly found in beers, malt, soups and food coloring Rye — commonly found in cereals, breads and rye beer Triticale — Triticale is a new grain on the market, increasingly popular because it contains the qualities of wheat while being tolerant to different growing conditions. It is commonly found in breads, pastas and cereals. Oats — While oats don’t contain gluten and add nutrients to an otherwise gluten-free diet, consumers avoiding gluten should be careful to look for oats labeled gluten-free. Crosscontamination often occurs when oats are grown or processed near wheat, barley or rye.

when I try to explain to people that it isn’t just a phase.” Lehn said he has some of the same conversations but isn’t worried it will affect his client base. “What some folks don’t understand is that this isn’t a fad, it’s a diet,” he said, adding that even people like athletes and those without health requirements are trying to remove gluten from their diets. “When you start adding up all of these groups, you’re talking about a large section of people,” he said. “We get a new customer diagnosed every day.”

Arapahoe wins football opener Warriors edge Jaguars 10-5 in season debut

1 before a large number of Warriors fans cheering them on at Littleton Public Schools Stadium.

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Key moments The Warriors trailed 5-0 at the end of the first quarter but took the lead for good with 3:45 left in the second period when quarterback Connor Desch completed a short pass to Jack Groth for a touchdown. Nick Rapue kicked the extra point and later added to the Warrior advantage by kicking a field goal.

The football game resembled a boxing slugfest as solid defense by Arapahoe and Rock Canyon slowed their opponents’ offense. The Warriors eventually prevailed with the only touchdown of the game and a field goal to post a 10-5 win on Sept.

KEEPING SCORE WITH... TAYLOR SCHLEY m Senior poms/dance tea member at Mountain Vista High School

What is your favorite pre-competition meal? My favorite meal to eat before I compete is pasta with Alfredo sauce and bread. This is because I love to load up on carbs the night before a big competition. Why do your participate in sports? It gets me involved in the school while meeting new people. It also keeps me healthy and active through the entire school year. What is your favorite type of music and who is your favorite artist? I really like a little bit of all genres of music so it’s hard to pick just one type that is my favorite. My favorite artist is also very hard

to decide from, but it ranges anywhere between Chance the Rapper, ODESZA and all the way to Brett Eldridge. What is your favorite subject in school? Math is probably my favorite subject because there is always a specific and correct answer that you are trying to find and a certain way to find the answer. I like having a problem and knowing the specific way to find it, knowing that my answer is correct. What is your favorite video game? If “Just Dance” for the Xbox 360 counts as a video game then it’s for sure my favorite one. I love this one because coming from a family of competitive dancers, it’s always fun to get competitive and see who the best dancer in the family really is. “Keeping Score With…” is a Q&A with high school athletes in the south metro area. Email Colorado Community Media sports writer Jim Benton at jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com if you or someone you know would like to participate.

Defense dominated play, and both teams suffered from a host of penalty calls as yellow flags littered the field a lot throughout the game. Arapahoe Coach Mike Campbell said it wasn’t a pretty performance, but the Warriors will take the win. “We are basically a young team with a lot of new kids out there tonight,” he said. “The kids are learning and I think some of them had firstgame jitters. We also lost a couple Warriors continues on Page 27

Gary Mares and Jim Dollaghan are friends who happen to be rival girls softball coaches. Mares is head coach at Horizon and Dollaghan heads up the ThunderRidge program. The teams usually only meet once a year since the schools play in different leagues. Mares and Dollaghan have been competing against each other for many years, but remain best friends. The rivalry Jim Benton started in Little OVERTIME League baseball and continued in high school when Mares played at Thornton and Dollaghan for Northglenn. “We played at rival high schools,” Dollaghan said. “We had a play at the plate in high school where I could have bowled him over but I just started laughing and he just tagged me. It’s been one of those nice friendships that you enjoy as a coach.” The two buddies stood at each other’s weddings and went into coaching after they finished college. “We said whoever got a job first, we would go help each other,” Mares explained. Dollaghan coached baseball at Green Mountain and Mares was his assistant for three seasons. Then Mares got the head baseball job at Legacy and Dollaghan was his assistant for two seasons. Now both are softball coaches and look forward to HorizonThunderRidge games. Dollaghan, who also helps coach baseball, is in his sixth year as the Grizzlies’ head softball coach and Mares has been at Horizon since 2011 and is coaching softball for the fifth season. “This makes us get together because he lives way down south and I’m north,” Mares said. “So we get to see each other then and I help him with camps and he helps with camps for me. He’s a good as it gets and not just with baseball and softball knowledge. He’s a good human being and does a good job with the team.” Dollaghan knows he has to be focused whenever ThunderRidge is matched against Horizon. “I don’t care what kind of rivalry you have or how bad you want to win, he’s one of my dear friends,” Dollgahan said. “I’m going to do everything I can to beat him because I’ll tell you, he’ll outcoach me. He’s a great coach and I really have to be on my toes to compete with him mentally, because mentally he just smokes me.” Warriors target pediatric cancer All Arapahoe soccer players will be wearing gold shoelaces for their final game of the annual Warrior Invitational Tournament Sept. 9 at Littleton Public Schools Stadium as part of Lace Up for Pediatric Cancer. Each player will donate $5 of their purchased laces as a show of unity against pediatric cancer. Money from the laces and 100 percent of other donations received at the games will go to local kids with cancer and their families. Arapahoe parents will have donation boxes at the stadium on Sept. 9 which is the final day of the threeday, six-team tournament. Benton continues on Page 27

Gymnastics season takes flight for local teams Heritage, Cherry Creek girls open season, with varying degrees of depth, experience By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Heritage coach Megan Kling said this is sort of a rebuilding season for the gymnastics team. “Three of the 11 girls on our team are upperclassmen,” she said. “The other eight are new to the team, but all the newcomers do have at least a little bit of gymnastics background. But all the girls are working and training hard.” The Eagles are a composite team made up of athletes from Littleton Public Schools high schools. Heritage has no home meets and the only practices at the home school are floor exercises. The team’s gymnasts travel to Overland High School in Aurora to use the school’s facilities for full practices. The Eagles opened the season Aug. 31 in a triangular meet at Cherry Creek High School. A good-size crowd of supporters watched as Cherry Creek, Heritage and the composite team made up of Pine Creek and Rampart competed. There was competition in four events, uneven parallel bars, vault, balance beam and floor exercise. “Our girls competed hard,” Kling said. “The success of the U.S. women’s gymnastics team at the Olympics has generated a lot of interest in the sport, particularly among younger girls. But I think it has also brought some additional members to many of the high school teams.” She said the Eagles’ strongest event is floor exercise. The coach said most girls find floor exercise fun, plus most gymnasts like to dance. Eagles gymnast Kayla Smith, a senior, said she wasn’t very good when she started the sport. “I have been involved with gymnastics

Heritage High School’s Kayla Smith moves through her floor-exercise routine during the three-team Aug. 31 meet at Cherry Creek High School. Heritage is a young team with 11 gymnasts on the roster. Photo by Tom Munds almost all my life,” she said. “My best friend was a good gymnast, so I thought it would be fun to try the sport. I worked very hard to get better, I finally made the team and I have been competing with my club team for seven years now.” She said floor exercise was definitely her favorite event. “Floor exercise is a lot of fun,” she said. “I like the tumbling and the jumps, but I like floor exercise most of all because I like to dance.” Smith said she watched as much of the U.S. women’s team’s competition as possible. “I loved watching them compete and they really inspire me,” she said. “It helped me work harder in practice to be

more like them.” Meanwhile, Cherry Creek enters the season with high expectations, but also some youth. Coach January Stewart said the Aug. 31 meet allowed all 30 members of her team to take part in the competition. “This meet is important because while we have some returning veterans, 18 of the girls are freshmen,” she said. “But all the girls on the team have gymnastics training and just about all of them compete regularly with a club team. I feel we will be a strong team and very competitive.” She said her team’s strongest event probably is vault. She said all the girls have good fundamental skills and ex-

ecute the techniques well. Bruins senior Mackenzie Doerr said she has been in gymnastics for about 11 years. “I think my parents enrolled me in gymnastics classes when I was a little kid to help me use up all my energy. I really enjoyed the sport and I have stuck with it,” she said. “For me, the most is competing, particularly with my high school teammates. It is so cool.” She said this senior season may be the final season of gymnastics for her so she wants to compete hard and enjoy the time with her teammates. “My favorite event is vault,” she said. “I enjoy the challenge and I guess I like it because I like to get up and fly.”

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF SEPT. 5, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) As tensions ease on the home front, you can once more focus on changes in the workplace. Early difficulties are soon worked out. Stability returns as adjustments are made. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) A new romance tests the unattached Bovine’s patience to the limit. But Venus still rules the Taurean heart, so expect to find yourself trying hard to make this relationship work. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) It’s a good time to consider home-related purchases. But shop around carefully for the best price -- whether it’s a new house for the family or a new hose for the garden. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A contentious family member seems intent on creating problems. Best advice: Avoid stepping in until you know more about the origins of this domestic disagreement. LEO (July 23 to August 22) A recent job-related move proves far more successful than you could have imagined. Look for continued beneficial fallout. Even your critics have something nice to say. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Ease up and stop driving yourself to finish that project on a deadline that is no longer realistic. Your superiors will be open to requests for an extension. Ask for it. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) You should soon be hearing some positive feedback on that recent business move. An old family problem recurs, but this time you’ll know how to handle it better.

TO SOLVE SUDOKU: Numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Some surprising statements shed light on the problem that caused that once-warm relationship to cool off. Use this newly won knowledge to help turn things around. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Your spiritual side is especially strong at this time. Let it guide you into deeper contemplation of aspects about yourself that you’d like to understand better.

Answers

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Your merrier aspect continues to dominate and to attract folks who rarely see this side of you. Some serious new romancing could develop out of all this cheeriness. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) You’re always concerned about the well-being of others. It’s time you put some of that concern into your own health situation, especially where it involves nutrition. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Just when you thought your life had finally stabilized, along comes another change that needs to be addressed. Someone you trust can help you deal with it successfully. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a sixth sense when it comes to finding people who need help long before they think of asking for it. And you’re right there to provide it. (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.
