Lockheed Martin begins construction on ‘factory of the future’

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Construction of a $350 million satellite production facility described as “a factory of the future” is underway at Lockheed Martin’s Waterton Canyon campus in south Jefferson County.

Named Gateway Center, the 266,000-square-foot facility will produce up to seven micro and macro satellites in one building, saving time, resources and cost, said Jay Bolden, Lockheed Martin Mission Solutions communications leader.

National security, scientific and commercial satellites of

all sizes will be assembled and tested in the facility, which will consolidate equipment and allow for a faster turnover to customers.

“Moving things back and forth takes time and resources away,” Bolden said. “This is the dream building — we have everything we want in one location.”

Lockheed’s Waterton Canyon campus, which sits on the southwest edge of Roxborough in Douglas County, has more than 4,000 employees and design, manufacturing and test facilities. Spacecraft currently in production at the campus include the Air Force’s GPS III

satellites, NASA’s InSight Mars lander, NOAA’s GOES-R Series weather satellites and commercial communications satellites, a media release from Lockheed Martin says.

Gateway Center will be the largest facility at the campus, expected to bring 1,500 construction jobs over the next three years. Completion is slated for 2020. The aerospace and defense company has added more than 750 jobs to its Colorado workforce since 2014, and currently has about 350 job openings in the Denver area, according to the media release.

Gateway Center will accommodate the recent growth and

future projects, the release says.

The expansion’s economic impact to the area is welcome, economic development leaders said.

Lockheed Martin has nearly 6,300 employees in Jefferson County and contracts with hundreds of local suppliers, said Leigh Seeger, interim president of Jefferson County Economic Development Corp.

She added that with high average salaries, employees tend to have more disposable income.

“The economic impact of Lockheed Martin to Jefferson County is significant,” Seeger said.

Laurilea McDaniel teaches theater at Mountain Ridge Middle School in Highlands Ranch

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

At age 5, Laurilea McDaniel’s mother took her to New York City for the Broadway musical, “Cats.” It was the first of hundreds of shows she would see. That same year, her mom taught her how to sew a costume.

“That’s definitely where my passion for musical theater started,” said McDaniel, sitting in an open classroom where an assortment of props — funky hats, a set of wooden steps, a piano, black stage curtains — replaced tables and chairs.

McDaniel, director of Headstrong Theatre at Mountain Ridge Middle School and executive director of Front Range Theatre Company, was one of eight teachers worldwide selected for the 8th annual Freddie G Fellowship.

The honor recognizes educators from schools and performing arts centers across the world who are making a difference in students’ lives and communities through theater productions.

Of the other recipients, one was from Australia and the others from across the U.S. McDaniels was the only one from Colorado.

The Littleton resident applied for the fellowship for fun last year, she said.

She never thought her name would be announced at the 2017 Junior Theater Festival, a weekend-long event for student musical groups held last February in Sacramento, California.

“I thought, ‘There is no way I am going to win this award,’” McDaniel, 36, said. “When they called me onstage, it was unbelievable.”

It wasn’t surprising for those that know her.

Mountain Ridge Principal Shannon Clarke said McDaniel’s honor was well deserved.

“She has such a passion for the content,” said Clarke, “but more importantly, the kids.”

McDaniel was born and raised in Dallas, Texas. She attended Texas A&M University, where she triple-majored in journalism, theater and education. She was nearly finished with her journalism degree when she realized it wasn’t what she wanted to do.

“My mom said I could stay in school,” she said. “I tried out for a play on campus and I loved theater.”

She went on to receive a master’s in curriculum and instruction for theater. She taught in Houston for a year and ran the theater of University of Memphis for two years before budget cuts forced her to look for a new job.

She had her eye on Colorado ever since learning about the state in a college geology class. So she applied and landed a position at Mountain Ridge Middle School, where she has been teach-

Laurilea McDaniel stands in her expressive theater classroom at Mountain Ridge Middle School. ALEX DEWIND ing for nine years. Her seventh- and eight- graders produce a fall musical and a spring play. Some participate in theater competitions.

Zach Fox, 13, likes the freedom of McDaniel’s class. Students are able to pick scripts, design choreography and costumes and utilize props from around the school, he said.

“In normal theater, you don’t have that,” Fox said before moving to a corner of the room, putting headphones in his ears and reciting a song from the musical “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown.”

The Freddie G Fellowship included a four-day trip in early July to New York City, where McDaniel worked alongside some of the top names on Broadway, including Jeff Calhoun, producer of Disney’s “Newsies.” She worked with professionals from Music Theatre International and iTheatrics, who she describes as “the people who make decisions for kids’ musicals.”

McDaniel also received $5,000, which she will use towards a technical theater-learning lab in her classroom.

The materials — such as a grid of lights and stage — will give student hands-on experience with the production side of theater.

McDaniel returned from the fellowship with a “newfound excitement for being in her classroom.” She now starts every class with a “musical theater moment,” where students watch a song from Broadway on a projector and discuss how it relates to their lives.

Said McDaniel: “I think it’s important for kids to understand that they are part of something bigger than themselves.”

‘Coach’ to challenge Cernanec in District 3 Steve Esses seeks to preserve city character

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Longtime Littleton resident Steve Esses is running for city council, challenging incumbent Phil Cernanec for the District 3 seat.

Esses, 64, said he’s running for a

range of reasons.

“Keep the city as Littleton as we know it,” Esses said. “Be more conservative with the budget. No growth without adequate studies. I don’t like what they’re doing to the older homes in the downtown area. We’re losing hisEsses tory there.”

How to get in touch with Littleton City Council hopefuls

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Four seats on Littleton’s sevenmember city council are up for grabs this year: District 1, covering the city’s northwest quadrant, is represented by Bill Hopping, who has decided not to run for re-election.

District 3, comprised of the city’s southeast quadrant, is represented

by Phil Cernanec, who will face two challengers this year.

Two at-large seats are up, with four candidates in the running. Doug Clark will seek another term, while Mayor Bruce Beckman has opted not to run for re-election.

Here’s how to get in touch with candidates: • Carol Fey 303-795-9350 carol@carolfey.com

“This isn’t Boulder. The smoking ban (on Main Street) is taking people’s freedoms. People live on that street. If they smoke, let them smoke.”

Esses is originally from Brooklyn, and moved to Colorado in 1971 to attend Colorado State University.

He holds a degree in environmental health, and worked in public health for the City and County of Denver for 30 years. He moved to Littleton in 1984. He retired three years ago fol-

lowing a bout of ill health. His wife of 36 years passed away about the same time.

Esses has two children, one with a master’s degree and another with a Ph.D. Both are Heritage High School graduates.

Esses has long been involved in softball, often as an umpire or scorekeeper for bar teams.

“It gets the guys off the poker table,” said Esses, whose nickname is “Coach.”

Driscoll to run for District 1 seat

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Patrick Driscoll is one of two candidates vying for the District 1 city council seat after incumbent Bill Hopping decided not to pursue re-election.

Driscoll said he’s running to take a different approach to business development.

“City council has Driscoll been saying no to a lot of things over the past couple years, and I’d like us to start saying yes,” Driscoll said. “I want to let people know Littleton’s open for business.”

Driscoll zeroed in on what he sees as key issues.

“The home shortage and affordable home options are high on everybody’s list,” Driscoll said.

“Also, I want to look at the Santa

Fe corridor — not just what the Sterling Ranch buildout will mean, but how should we develop that stretch? How do we enhance or parlay what we did with Breckenridge Brewery to create a place businesses want to move to?”

Driscoll is an account executive for the Paramount Residential Mortgage Group and a member of the Colorado Mortgage Lenders Association. He is also treasurer of the Colorado Association of Mortgage Professionals and a member of St. James Presbyterian Church.

Driscoll was born in Chicago, raised in Ohio, and has a degree from St. Bonaventure University in upstate New York. He has lived in Colorado since 1985 and in Littleton since 2000.

Driscoll celebrated his 25th wedding anniversary last week, and has three grown daughters, all of whom graduated from Heritage High School.

‘Spaceship bank’ marks 50 years of iconic architecture Daylong celebration marks historic designation of Englewood edifice

GRANDDAUGHTER’S WORDS Charlee Antonopoulos, Charles Deaton’s daughter, attended the 50th anniversary celebration.

“It is hard to describe my feelings as I attended the event. It was a bit overwhelming,” she said in a phone interview. “My father was a wonderful, talented architect and I am so happy this event was held to recognize the brilliance of the buildings he designed.”

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Hundreds of people attended the 50th anniversary celebration of the uniquely shaped bank building at 3501 S. Broadway in Englewood that was designed by famous architect Charles Deaton.

Community Banks of Colorado now occupies the “spaceship bank” building and hosted the celebration of the building’s anniversary and Charles Deaton’s designing talents. Community Banks held an open house from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sept. 7. There was a line of people waiting when the doors

Old latex paint?

Don’t flip out! Dry it out!

Have you been stockpiling cans of latex paint, waiting for the next Douglas County Household Chemical Roundup? Good news – latex paint is water-based and safe to throw away, if prepared properly. If the paint is completely dry, simply remove the lid and throw the can away.

If there is still wet paint in the can, mix in some dirt or cat litter to fully absorb it. Once it is dry, throw it away. Save yourself a trip to the Roundup (and the $25 contribution) if you have water-based paint.

Remember, this only applies to water-based latex paint, and NO paint can be dumped in the gutter or thrown in the trash wet.

Make a difference in keeping our waterways clean by practicing cost-effective ways to dispose of materials properly.

Cove goes to the dogs Day belongs to canines at the water park on Belleview Avenue

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Pirates Cove pool enjoyed by people throughout the summer became a playground for dogs during the Sept. 9 Doggie Plunge.

Englewood turns the water park on West Belleview Avenue over to the dogs at the end of each season for the plunge. The event is a fun time for the dogs as well as a fundraiser for Freedom Service Dogs.

Freedom Service Dogs is a Centennial-based organization that rescues dogs from shelters and trains the animals to do tasks like opening doors, turning on lights or a long list of other services for people with disabilities created by disease or injuries.

This year’s plunge lasted from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. Hundreds of dogs took part in the event and all day there were long lines of owners with their dogs waited their turn for entrance to the water park.

Inside Pirates Cove, the dogs ran free. They played chase and splashed in the water of the wading pool and dove in after toys from the edge of one of the deeper pools.

After taking part in the plunge Englewood residents Christa Grauert and Erik Bromley helped their dog Berklee with a cup of doggie ice cream.

“This is such a great event. All the dogs seem to be having a lot of fun and I think it is fun to watch them,” Grauert said. “Berklee raced around, swam and splashed in the

Ellie, a 3-year-old golden retriever, goes airborne into the pool to retrieve a tennis ball during the Sept. 9 Doggie Plunge at Pirates Cove in Englewood. Ellie’s owner, Kara Waldwieier of Littleton, said it is a great event for her dog and for her. Each year after the water park is closed for the season, a day is set aside for the fundraiser for Freedom Service Dogs.

Now he is enjoying a little rest and a special treat.”

Sam Letterman smiled as he said his dog was keeping him busy throwing tennis ball into the deep

pool so his black Labrador retriever “Midnight” could jump in and retrieve it.

“Midnight loves the water and there aren’t a lot of places where he can jump in to fetch the ball like this,” the Jefferson County resident said. “A friend told me about this event and we came last year. We both had fun, so here we are again.

I am glad they have events like this where Midnight can run, play and swim.”

Nearby, Kara Weldmieier watched her dog Ellie jump into the water to retrieve a ball.

“This is the first time we attended this event and it is great,” the Littleton resident said. “Just watching her, you can tell Ellie is having fun and that is the important thing. Of course, I think it is fun to watch her.

Another plus is Ellie is getting a lot of exercise and I’ll bet it will be nap time for her when we get home.”

Author gives details on process of creation Wendy Terrien launches two new titles in her Jason Lex Adventure Series

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

“The first book took me five years,” said Highlands Ranch author Wendy Terrien, talking about her carefully plotted “Rampart Guards,” which was named to Kirkus Review’s Best Books of 2016. Her Jason Lex Adventure Series follows with two new titles, just published in August: “The League of Governors” and “The Clan Calling.” In an Aug. 16 book talk at Tattered Cover Aspen Grove, she explained that she had two main characters developed and they each had a story …

“The characters really take over,”

she told the group of readers. “In `The Rampart Guards,’ I originally had a different ending in mind.”

Someone asked if there was a particular order in which to read the two new ones, and Terrien’s critique group friend answered that she thought alternating would work well.

(Jason joins his father and sister London, where they consult the League of Governors, while his friend, Sadie Callahan, is staying in the small town in in the Northwest where they lived, so a different volume covers her story.) The paranormal world surrounds both young people.

“I was watching TV and folding laundry and heard some mention of a `cryptozoologist,’” the author of Young Adult titles recalled. That led her to a world of creatures that most of us can’t see … (Bigfoot, Loch Ness Monster, etc.). Jason, whose mother is missing, is pursued by a horde of flying creatures, criptids, learns

he has remarkable powers, and is affected by a mysterious coin that glows.

His uncle, a nicely conceived quirky fellow, with a fascinating laboratory, helps him understand and deal with an increasingly challenging world, which comes with life-or-death decisions to be made …

Terrien strongly recommends connecting with a critique group when one is developing a book. She meets with one at Tattered Cover, where each member reads aloud from a new chapter and the others talk about it.

With another group, she sends pages in advance, which will be discussed.

She said she “had no idea what will happen yet” in the next books. They will also surely appeal to both teens and adults who want to enter a world that combines realism and fantasy.

Terrien has been named 2017 Independent Writer of the Year by the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers.

Young Adult author Wendy Terrien writes urban fantasy tales for teens and adults.

She lives and writes in Highlands Ranch.

LPS school board election canceled for lack of candidates STAFF REPORT

Littleton Public Schools’ Board of Education will remain unchanged after the fall election, after no challengers emerged against the three members whose terms run out this year.

The incumbents will automatically retain their seats for another four-year term, and no school board election will be held, said LPS superintendent Brian Ewert.

The incumbents are President

Jack Reutzel, Vice President Carrie Warren-Gully, and Treasurer Kelly Perez. Their new terms, which will be their last due to term limits, will expire in 2021.

Secretary Robert Reichardt and Assistant Secretary Jim Stephens will be up for re-election in 2019.

The board canceled the uncontested election at a brief special meeting on Sept. 6 after nobody registered to challenge the seats by the Sept. 1 deadline.

The Deaton exhibition will be on view through Sept. 22. Museum hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday.

The day’s activities wrapped up with a short ceremony presenting a plaque designating the bank building as now being on both the national and Colorado registries of historic places.

G. Timothy Laney, National Bank Holdings president and CEO, accepted the plaque from Erika Warzel. Warzel is the national and state register historian with History Colorado. Laney said plans are to place the plaque in the wall of the foyer at the bank’s entrance.

Architect Deaton designed many structures, including Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. He also created the concept for the three structures that have been called sculptured building. The bank in Englewood was the third of the three sculptured buildings.

He completed the original sketch of the bank in 1965 in his Denver offices.

Work started on the structure in 1966 and it opened as Key Savings in April 1967.

In a 1966 television interview with Hugh Downs, Deaton said he created a scale-model clay sculpture as the first step in creating a building and felt the finished product was a work of art that became a building.

His clay sculpture of each of the three sculptured building was used as part of the plans the contractor utilized to build them. He said he kept in mind the planned use of the building and the structural needs to construct it. He said the clay model was divided into pieces so the design concept could be translated into the blueprints needed to construct it.

Joe Meehan, now 89, was the structural engineer on the project.

clay model and told me the rest was up to me,” he said. “The shape was set and I had to come up with the proper structural designs. It was a challenge.

I worked with the contractor and we decided the best way to construct the building was to create a rebar framework, tie all the rebar together then pour the concrete for the outside of the building. I guess it was a good plan because here we are today.”

Englewood resident Diane Wray Tomasso said the “spaceship bank” is a centerpiece of the city and an important part of the history of the community, so she took on the task of getting it listed on the National Registry of Historic Places.

“I completed the process in 2004 to have the Genesee house listed on the National Registry of Historic Places and I said then that Englewood Deatondesigned bank would be next,” she said. “It was a few years but I began the process seeking the designation for the Englewood bank in 2015. It was about a year later when we were notified the Englewood bank was now listed on the National Registry of Historic Places as well as the state registry.”

She said receiving the registry designation was the first step.

“During the process to complete the registry application I talked to a lot of people about the building,” Tomasso said during the celebration. “Almost everyone knew about the building, and the fact 2017 was the bank’s 50th anniversary, it seemed natural to have a celebration. A lot of people worked with me, including all the people at MOA. We have had big crowds all day and I think the celebration is a success.”

Couple working to build community for disabled Centennial residents seek support to establish Tall Tales Ranch in Lone Tree

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Susan and Pat Mooney face the same dilemma as many parents of developmentally disabled children: What will become of their son when they’re gone?

The Centennial couple, whose 23-year-old son Ross suffered brain damage as a result of a genetic disorder in his early teens, explored their options: group homes or institutions, many with years-long waiting lists.

Dissatisfied with the offerings, the Mooneys elected to create their own: Tall Tales Ranch, an “intentional community” in Lone Tree where developmentally disabled people will live alongside “neurotypical” people, or folks without disabilities.

“We wanted something forward thinking, where when we’re gone, somebody will look at him and ask him how his day was,” Susan Mooney said. “Most developmentally disabled folks, by the time they’re a little older, don’t have a family of their own. It’s one thing to put a roof over somebody’s head, but they need community too.”

Though ground likely won’t be broken on Tall Tales Ranch for another three years, the Mooneys are hard at work drumming up support and sponsors for the project. They’re holding the third annual Tall Tales Hoedown on Sept. 22 at the Lone Tree Arts Center, where “special needs ambassadors” — young people who may one day be residents of Tall Tales Ranch — will hold a talent show and gala.

The dream is seeming more tangible than ever this year, after Coventry Development donated a land lease in perpetuity to the project, on part of the historic Schweiger Ranch across I-25 from Cabela’s on RidgeGate Parkway.

Susan Mooney said Tall Tales Ranch will likely consist of duplex cottages housing a total of 50 people — 25 developmentally disabled, and 25 “neurotypicals.” On-site staff will help administer medications.

She also envisions livestock, community garden plots and a barn that will double as a community center and coffee shop, designed to provide residents with income and the ranch with revenue.

The neurotypical residents are likely to be interns or students from a variety of mental health care and medical training programs, Susan Mooney said.

The developmentally disabled residents, whom the Mooneys call “ranchers,” will likely be folks without significant medical needs, but who would still struggle to live on their own.

Neurotypicals will not have mandated duties beyond being dedicated

Coventry Development effectively donated land as part of the historic Schweiger Ranch to build Tall Tales Ranch, an intentional community where developmentally disabled people will live alongside “neurotypical” people.

COURTESY PHOTO members of the community, Susan Mooney said.

“They won’t be doing therapeutic tasks, just being a neighbor and having meals with the ranchers, or taking care of the property or the animals,” she said.

The ranch’s funding model is still being developed, Pat Mooney said. Currently, Tall Tales Ranch is actively seeking donations and sponsorships, and he said they hope to being seeking grants.

Once the ranch is completed, funding might come from private payments as well as Medicaid and Social Security funds.

Taking on a project like Tall Tales Ranch sometimes seems daunting, said Pat Mooney, who for the last 20 years has run a business selling and

installing artificial turf for golf putting greens. He said eager partners have been emerging to help the couple navigate the water.

“We’re fortunate to have some bright minds in industries that can help us maneuver the system,” he said. “That’s the key to a nonprofit’s success is relationships with people who can help you.”

There’s not a magic number for funding the project, Susan Mooney said. They expect the project may cost anywhere from $2 million to $6 million to get off the ground. Three years of fundraising have netted gains toward that goal, though currently much of the funds are going to general operations, growing the project, seeking partnerships and other costs.

Contact information: 303-806-9141 or talltalesranch. com/events.html

Parents of other disabled children are eager to see the project take shape.

“This means security,” said Ann Beetham, of Littleton, whose disabled 26-year-old son Alex will likely need housing someday.”Right now, there are people who have been on a housing list since the late 1980s.

There’s a desperate need. There are aging parents who have no idea what’s going to happen to their children with disabilities.”

Pat Mooney said the dire need for the project keeps his fire burning.

“This is going to be our life’s work,” he said. “We’re committed to getting it done. It’s been an amazing journey, and we’re getting more people involved, and that snowball is growing.”

Englewood Police Officer Steve Siegal wrote his original novel “Cop Cohen” while he was still on the job.

Now that he is retired he had the time to complete the sequel, “Contra Legem — Against the Law” which was released in August.

“I have always liked to write and I always wanted to write a novel, but I never really had time to devote to it when I was with EPD,” said Siegal, who writes under the name of S. Michael Siegal. “I finally decided if I didn’t do it, it wouldn’t get done, so I wrote the first novel about a rookie police officer in his first phase of the field officer’s program while I was still with EPD.” He said the first novel took a lot of time to write, edit and publish under the name of M. Michael Siegal. So he decided to wait until he retired from the Englewood Police Department in August 2016 to write the sequal.

He said it took him about a year to complete the follow-up novel to “Cop Cohen” titled “Contra Legem - Against the Law.” When he is working on a novel, he said, he tries to set time each day to work on the project, but most often he will get an idea and begin writing almost immediately before he forgets details.

“When I am working on a novel I usually develop my characters first.

Then I work on weaving the characters into the flow of the plot in each chapter,” he said. “While I do love to write, I have never had any formal training. I just learned and developed my skills by writing.”

Siegal was born in Denver, went to

Denver North High School for a time and eventually graduated from Cherry Creek High School.

He continued his education at in the 1970s at Metropolitan State College, now Metropolitan State University. He majored in public administration and graduated in 1981.

He entered law enforcement as a member of the Arapahoe County Sheriff ’s Office and moved from there to the Englewood Police Department, where he served for more than 31 years.

“It was an outstanding career and I particularly enjoyed my time with Englewood Police Department,” he said. “The biggest changes I saw during my career with EPD were the fact that everything was done on paper when I started and that transitioned to doing the work on computers. But much of the job of working with people remained the same.”

He said he admires and respects all those who wear a badge or have worn a badge and he respects their dedication to serving and protecting the people of their communities.

His law enforcement career proved to be a storehouse of ideas he drew on as he developed his first two novels.

“I drew heavily on my experiences for many of the details in the first two books,” he said. “I just reviewed my memories for details as I developed characters and events. For example, a supervisor in the book may have characteristics of two or three of my supervisors. Also, I included some of the things I remembered from places I worked as an Englewood officer as the foundation of some of the places I describe in my books.”

He now is working on a very different sort of novel.

“I am looking at writing a psychological thriller that is loosely based on a true story,” Siegal said. “It is something I always wanted to do and figured it is a good way to take a different direction in my writing.”

‘He was a true Rotarian and a true citizen’ Englewood Rotary Club remembers longtime member Peter Neidecker

PETER NEIDECKER AND WHERE TO REMEMBER HIM

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Frank Sargent, 89, remembers the time, years ago, when an Englewood preschool program that distributed food and clothing was financially struggling. He approached Peter Neidecker to ask if he knew someone who could help.

“Peter, I’m coming to you because you might know somebody — but don’t do it yourself,” Sargent recalled. “And he said, `Tell me how much it is, what it’s for and where.’ And I had a check.”

Neidecker, a pillar in the Englewood community and longtime member of the Rotary Club of Englewood, died Aug. 28 after struggling with heart issues, non-Hodgkins lymphoma and a recent lung infection, his son, Pete Neidecker, said. He was 92.

At the club’s Sept. 6 meeting, members shared fond memories of Neidecker and his life as a “quiet and smart servant,” as Frank Sargent described him.

“He was a person with purpose in his life, and he wanted us to join him,” said Sargent, a club director and a member since 1970.

Peter Neidecker at Villefranche-sur-Mer, France. Neidecker, a man with deep roots in the Englewood community, died at 92 last month.

PHOTO COURTESY PETE NEIDECKER (SON) Patricia Burnett, club president, remembered his calm demeanor and perpetual smile.

Gary Sears, former Englewood city manager, referred to Neidecker affectionately as a Rotarian who was traditional in his values and giving back. Jim Bowman said he “always liked to help with everything we were doing.”

Born in Paris, Neidecker attended an English boarding school and earned a master’s in engineering from Brown University in Rhode Island. He spent a large part of his well-traveled life in the Englewood and Denver met-

Peter Neidecker was a mechanical engineer who started a company called National Wire, which later became National Wire and Stamping, in Denver in 1959.

He served in World War II as an ensign and skipper of a landing craft in the South Pacific. He was an avid sailor, tennis player, skier and fly-fisherman.

He is survived by his wife, Dody; three children, Sylvia, Peter and Sally; eight grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren.

Services will be held at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 16, at Calvary Episcopal Church at 1320 Arapahoe St. in Golden.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Rotary Club of Englewood and/or the Boys and Girls Clubs of Metro Denver. To donate to the Rotary Club of Englewood, please send gifts to P.O. Box 3, Englewood 80151. ro areas. A Denver resident, he was a part of the Englewood Rotary Club since the early 1970s, Sargent said.

His son, Pete, described him as a “generous, selfless and genuine gentleman.”

Pete recalled a trip in 1982 to Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean to fly fish with his father. Despite the sparsely-populated island’s natives’ language barrier, Neidecker somehow made several friends who produced a huge feast on the beach for him — a sight the fishing camp manager said

he’d never seen before.

Bruce Spear, the club’s director and former president, said Neidecker and his wife, Dora Drake Shaw — known as “Dody” — supported the club’s events as Spear tried to push for more social functions during his tenure from 2014 to 2016.

“We have a happy hour (event) every month ... summer picnics, holiday parties in December,” Spear said. “They always came to those and supported that. That’s the thing I remember most.”

Neidecker also volunteered as president of the United Way chapter in the Niagara area of Canada, according to his obituary, as well as the Boys and Girls Clubs of Metro Denver and the board of trustees of the Kent Denver School.

“Peter’s special work with the Rotary Club in his later years was his devotion to reading to children at Bishop (Elementary) School,” Burnett said. “That was his special cause.” His obituary mentions him mentoring fourth-graders at that school for more than 18 years.

The Rotary Club has a “four-part test,” which says to make decisions based on truth, being fair, building good will and better friendships, and benefitting all people concerned.

That four-part test was “what Peter was about,” Sargent said. “He was a true Rotarian and a true citizen.

We’ll miss him.”

It has taken a while — my entire life — to figure something out. What I want and what I need are just about the same thing.

There are new technologies that I neither want nor need.

I don’t want Alexa.

I don’t want Tesla.

I don’t want a camera in my car or a camera in my refrigerator (Samsung makes one).

I don’t want to be able to turn my house lights on and off from a restaurant.

and never will, and I seem to be subsisting.

That was the last piece of my technology puzzle, and I solved it years ago. Don’t want one, don’t need one.

Social media and online news sources certainly have their value if we can discern what is fact and what is opinion, and what is just completely wrong or false.

With so much happening in the world and so many opinions from the far left, the far right, the left, the right, and all of the people right down the middle, it really does become difficult to choose what we want to focus on or pay attention to.

GARDNER

John Gardner

2/16/1934 - 9/6/2017 John Pearson Gardner arrived on the 16th of February, 1934 in Marianna, Pennsylvania. John was the only child born to George Pearson Gardner and Frances Gardner. He was schooled in Pennsylvania and West Virginia. John graduated from Greenbrier Military School in Lewisburg, West Virginia and attended West Virginia University in Clarksburg, W. Virginia prior to going into pilot training in the US Air Force. As a USAF Pilot, he flew single and multi-engine piston, single and multi-engine jets and four engine turbo-prop aircraft. John retired from the Air Force as a Command Pilot. During his USAF career, Major Gardner was an instructor pilot in the B-25, T-33, T-37 and C-130 Aircraft.

Duty stations included several bases in the US, (Reese Air Force Base in Texas, Homestead Air Reserve Base in Florida, Keesler Air Force Base in Mississippi, Hill Air force Base in Utah, and Cannon Air Force Base in New Mexico; France, Germany and Viet Nam where he flew the F-4 Phantom Air Craft and the F-100. He loved flying the F-100, his thought being that to fly it correctly one had to be a “really good” pilot. But he spoke lovingly of the C-130. “The ole gal would just fly anywhere in any kind of weather and get you there and back safely.” While serving for 21-years in the Air Force, Major Gardner earned HOPSON

Man works toward better communication through devices Lone Tree veteran working on invention for the hearing-impaired

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In July 2016, Richard Braden woke up and couldn’t hear his grandfather clock. The 80-year-old Lone Tree resident knew that years of working with “big guns” in the U.S. Army had caught up with him, but it gave him the idea for his first invention.

Braden began designing the Peck and Talk, or P & T, a device that would take spoken dialogue and transcribe it onto a screen.

“I wanted something that I could wear around my neck that I could hold and would print out your words,” he says.

For users not in the same room, the device operates like a walkie-talkie that uses 50 channels to connect with other users. For people in a face-to-face conversation,

Richard Braden, a veteran and retiree living in Lone Tree, looks over plans for his invention for the hearing impaired, the Peck and Talk. Braden says he hopes to market the product to the hearing-impaired and teenagers.

TOM SKELLEY the P & T would instantly transcribe words spoken into a microphone onto a screen, eliminating the need to read lips.

What sets the P & T apart

Careers

from smartphones and other similar devices, Braden says, is that his invention is streamlined to focus on only the audio equipment needed to take in speech and the

data storage necessary to transcribe language.

“I’m looking for a really big microchip,” he says.

His target consumers are hearing-impaired adults like

himself in the United States, but he adds that teenagers, known for passing notes and Snapchat messages, also have a desire to communicate discreetly.

“My greatest market may not be deaf people, though that’s who it’s intended for,” he says, adding that each club or group a high school student is involved in could have its own channel for transmitting messages with the P & T. “Teenagers like to talk to each other quietly.”

Startup companies historically face an uphill battle to succeed, and Braden is aware he faces a challenge to break into the technology industry.

Braden is in the process of looking for investors and he hopes to find a manufacturer that will give him 90 days from shipment to payment, after which he’ll be on the hook for the cost. He knows startup ventures like his are risky, but he’s more focused on seeing his idea come to be than turning a large profit.

“If I don’t sell them, I’m in deep trouble,” he says, undeterred. “A man as old as I am, why try to make a lot of money?”

One frontier woman’s journal connects families across the ages

T

he history of the Denver area is sometimes thought of in broad strokes — before this time there was one of black and white, cowboys and miners, bonnets and butter churns.

But our region was settled by families with the same hopes and fears we have today.

“When we look to the past and think about what they went through, it reminds us how familiar their experience was to our own,” said Dr. Derek Everett, a Colorado State University history professor. “What motivated a person in Colorado 150 years ago is what people worry about today: family, friends, your job, finding a place to live, opportunities for your children.”

Early Littleton settler Mollie Sanford, a newlywed farm girl from Nebraska, here with her husband Byron, kept an eloquent journal that reveals the similarities across the

made of carpets and bedding. I like the looks of the place.”

Mollie arrived a year after Denver was founded at the confluence of Cherry Creek and the South Platte River.

People, including families, were steadily arriving in hopes of getting in on the ground floor of a new boomtown.

The telegraph was still three years away, the railroad a decade away.

“They were willing to take a chance,” said Dr. Stephen Leonard, a history professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver. “People had grown up hearing of settling Indiana or Minnesota. They had an adventuresome spirit.”

But one person’s adventure is another’s nightmare.

“Husbands write about what an exciting adventure this is,” Everett said. “Wives write that they married the

stupidest man on the planet, who has dragged them off into the middle of godforsaken nowhere to be murdered or starve to death.”

Down on the farm Mollie and Byron eventually found themselves in the upper South Platte Valley, among a growing community of farmers and ranchers about where Sheridan is today.

Mollie took to prairie life with good graces.

“June 1, 1861: There can’t be much jealousy, for one is not much better off than others, so there is a feeling of brotherhood with all.”

Life on a prairie farm was monotonous and labor intensive, said Andrea Wilhelm, a historical interpreter at the Littleton Museum, a living history village.

Typical farms of the region were 160 acres, and often had a garden and livestock to provide sustenance, and fields of rye, barley and wheat.

“Someone got up before dawn to milk the cow,” Wilhelm said. “Then a big breakfast before heading out to the fields to work. There was never much down time.”

While men worked the fields, wives’ tasks included laundry, ironing, cooking and cleaning.

went to church, a rare chance for entertainment and music. Men often congregated on Sunday afternoons at the post office, where all news of the outside world arrived.

Suffer the little children Life on the frontier was hard on the body.

“September 25, 1861: My little babe was born, a beautiful boy, but he did not stay with us. God took him to his fold, this one pet lamb. When I first looked on his little face, he was in his little coffin, dressed in one of the sweetest robes I had made, into whose stitches I had woven dreams of my angel baby.”

Mollie fell into a bit of a funk after the stillbirth, writing nearly a year later, while pregnant again: “July 4, 1862: O! but this is the most indolent life I ever led. Were I to write each day’s events, it would be, ‘Got up. Got breakfast, eat, washed dishes, got dinner, ate again,’ and so on, each succeeding day the same.”

Mollie’s first child was born that fall: “November 10, 1862: I introduce to these pages my sweet baby boy, my little Bertie… A regular little captain, already giving his orders, with no intention of having them disregarded.”

Little Bertie likely grew up fast, Wilhelm said.

“There wasn’t much of a notion of childhood,” Wilhelm said. “Parents allowed some level of play, but children were learning to sew by age 2 or 3.

There were no idle hands. If you were sitting around the fire, you might as well be knitting.”

Families often had five or six kids, and sometimes more than a family could handle. Wilhelm recalled a Western Slope doctor of the period who sent out young assistants with wire to perform abortions.

Tensions rise The influx of settlers displaced the

PHOTOS BY DAVID GILBERT native tribes who had lived in the region for ages prior.

A series of reprisal killings in the summer of 1864 heated relations between settlers and natives to the boiling point.

In June 1864, ranch hand Nathan Hungate, his wife Ellen, and their two daughters were found murdered, scalped and mutilated on a remote ranch near what is today Elizabeth.

The Hungates’ bodies were displayed on Larimer Street in Denver, and the story of the murdered family was used to whip up public anger and calls for a final solution to the Indian problem.

In September 1864, Mollie took in three recently recovered settlers who had been held hostage by natives, including a little girl: “The girl saw her father butchered...

She would wake from a sound sleep, and sit up in bed with staring eyes, and go in detail over the whole thing.”

Paranoia ran high in the charged atmosphere, and Mollie writes, “It was about 11 o’clock that a horseman came tearing up the road, dismounting at our door… he gasped out, knees knocking together, ‘Run, wimmen! Run for your lives, the Injuns are coming!”

The warning turned out to be a false alarm.

“It turned out people got scared of a cloud of dust they thought was Indians,” Leonard said.

The paranoia culminated in the Sand Creek Massacre, when on Nov. 29, U.S. forces launched a dawn sneak attack on a peaceful Arapaho and Cheyenne village, killing upwards of 200, mostly women and children. Ensuing years saw natives pushed back to the margins, herded onto barren reservations.

With the arrival of the first locomotive in Denver in 1870 came an era of explosive growth. Denver’s population in 1870 was virtually unchanged from when Mollie arrived 10 years earlier, but in the decade following the train’s arrival, the city swelled by almost 650 percent. Telephones, streetcars, opera houses, churches and hotels transformed the city. The rough frontier Mollie and her family settled was fading into memory.

The young lady who watched the rugged West go tame died at age 76 in 1915, only a few months after her husband.

She closes her journal: “I pray for grace, patience, and judgment, and for long and useful lives for us all.”

Bronco and Gravity car was preserved through local efforts Restored Cherrelyn horsecar last ran more than a century ago

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Cherrelyn horsecar, an important part of Englewood history, stands fully restored in the lobby of the civic center because a number of residents wanted to see it saved and displayed where everyone could see it.

The 1980s restoration project was the last of three efforts to preserve the horsecar and was the most complete.

All three efforts were aimed at preventing the loss of the horsecar that earned an important place in Englewood history.

The trolley was the major public transportation vehicle in the metro area in the 1890s and included tracks and trolley service from downtown Denver to what was called the Junction, located at what is now Hampden and Broadway.

“Englewood from the Beginning,” a book published in 1971, reported a real estate company that was developing lots near Broadway and Quincy put in a single set of tracks from Broadway and Hampden to Quincy in 1894 and purchased a horsecar to take prospective buyers about a mile south to the planned development.

There was a problem because the trip south was all uphill, which raised the question about what to do with the horse on the return downhill trip.

The solution was to load the horse on the back porch of the vehicle for the return ride.

An article in the 1911 Englewood newspaper stated that when word about the horse on the back of the trolley got around, tourists would ride the electric trolley to Englewood from Denver, get their photo taken by the Cherrelyn horsecar for a small fee and

The completely restored Cherrelyn horsecar stands in the lobby of the Englewood Civic Center at 1000 Englewood Parkway. A group of residents joined forces in the late 1980s and raised the $40,000 needed to completely the horsecar because it is a unique part of Englewood history.

PHOTOS COURTESY OF ENGLEWOOD PUBLIC LIBRARY then ride the electric trolley back to Denver. Reportedly, owner John Bogue had the photos developed and mailed them to the tourists.

Another newspaper article from the era stated Quickstep was the first horse to pull the car but was replaced after the first year by other horses to keep the horsecar operating from 1894 until 1910. The article also reported two or three horses were used because a horse usually was given a rest after three or four trips up the long hill. Reportedly the trip the hill took about 15 minutes.

Once the horse was loaded on the back of the trolley, the return trip down the hill took less than five minutes.

Electric trolley lines were extended south and the horsecar line was no longer profitable, so the Bronco and Gravity Railroad ended its operation in 1910, but was used for special occasions and celebrations

The Englewood Rotary Club paid for restoration of the Cherrelyn horsecar and donated the horsecar to the city. This 1965 photo shows it in place in front of city hall, which was then on South Elati Street. until September 1912.

The horsecar was sold and became a playhouse in the rose garden of a Federal Heights family. When the family was clearing the property in 1950, the horsecar was returned to Englewood.

The Englewood Rotary Club paid for the initial restoration. A Denver Post article published in December 1965 reported the horsecar being placed

at Englewood City Hall when it was on South Elati Street. It sat outside and, over the years, the weather took its toll on the horsecar, it began to sag, was considered a hazard and in 1980 was removed to the Englewood ServiCenter.

Estimated cost of total restoration was about $40,000. The city didn’t have the funds, but in 1987 a group of 19 people formed the Save the Cherrelyn Horsecar Committee.

Four years later, $30,000 had been raised and city employee Jim Haselgren oversaw the restoration. Interviewed by the Englewood Herald in 1990, Haselgren said the horsecar was in very bad shape but could be restored. He said most of the wood had dry-rotted under the metal siding put on the horsecar so he would use those pieces as patterns for new lumber. He also knew those with skill to steambend the wood for the ribs of the car and artisans who could etch the glass for the car windows.

The restoration was completed in the early 1990s. It first was placed in the Cinderella City mall, and when the mall was marked for demolition it was moved to its current home in the lobby of the Englewood Civic Center at 1000 Englewood Parkway.

Its in movies, TV shows, playing over the speakers in stores and shops, and can be heard blaring out of car windows on the road.

But I didn’t start understanding music until I got to school.

I don’t have a lot of memories of actual class time at Fremont Elementary in Jefferson County, but some of my most vivid memories are from music class. We sang songs together, learned a little about music notes, and tried our hands at becoming the world’s best recorder player.

Needless to say, the latter didn’t happen, but I did come away with a lifelong love of music.

So it gives me great pleasure to report that students in schools all over the Denver Metro Area still have many of the same opportunities I had.

“Every neighborhood school in Jeffco has music in it, and our middle and high schools have choir, band and orchestra programs,” said Lee Andres, music and theater curriculum coordinator with Jeffco schools. “We’d always like to see more, but the state of music education in Jeffco is thriving.”

A good music education goes beyond opportunity — it also means a diversity of offerings. Not just classes for those interested in performing, but options to learn about the aesthetic or business side.

Orlando Otis, music teacher at Legend High School in Douglas County, knows the importance of this firsthand — in addition to performance classes, he teaches music appreciation and music technology.

“These classes give me time with students I

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK SELECTION: Jack Johnson’s “All the Light Above It Too,” released on Island/Republic Records.

REVIEW: Johnson’s music always sounds like summer, so it’s a good thing he was able to release this while there’s still a few weeks left in the season. Johnson doesn’t break any new sonic ground here, but he does return to the more acoustic-driven approach wouldn’t normally see,” Otis said. “So many students love music, and it’s my job to give options to as many of them as I can.”

One of my favorite classes at Ralston Valley High School was a music appreciation class I took from longtime music educator Ken Sawyer. It provided me a sense of context on some of the music I was already enjoying, and opened up a new appreciation for classical pieces.

And exposure to music, especially at a young age, can be extremely important.

According to the National Association for Music Education, learning about music helps develop language and reasoning, mastery of memorization, increased coordination and discipline.

From the site: Kids who study the arts can learn to think creatively. This kind of education can help them solve problems by thinking outside the box and realizing that there may be more than one right answer.

One of the things that makes music education special, according to Andres, is that it’s a group learning experience for students.

“So much of school is focused on individualized learning, but music class provides more

that catapulted him to fame on his early albums. Put it on while you’re relaxing on the porch, while there’s still time.

a social experience,” he said. “Music is one of the oldest human activities, and its one of p the things we’re able to bring to students that w feeds the soul.” a Both Andres and Otis agree that the impor- s tant part of music education is not turning 2 students into professional musicians, but T getting them involved in music — something p they can do for the rest of their lives. a “Music education is just as important as the J academic courses because it gives students a place to belong,” Otis said. “You can catch a R kid and help them find their identity in a way t you can’t in other areas.” p As someone who discovered themselves d through music, I will never fully be able to L repay the debt to those who taught me about e the art early on. We owe it to all future generations to keep the music playing on and on.

Adult drama on stage raises tough questions ‘The Mystery of Love and Sex’ is offered by Firehouse Theater Company

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Family dynamics have for centuries provided the basis for drama. Playwright Bathsheba Doran gives the audience a contemporary spin as we sit in on a dinner party with decidedly 21st-century elements in Firehouse Theater Company’s regional premiere production of “The Mystery of Love and Sex.” It runs through Oct. 7 at the John Hand Theater in Lowry.

Suzanne Conners Nepi of Highlands Ranch, an active member of Denver’s theater community, said “it’s a timely piece — tackles so many subjects discussed these days …” In the role of Lucinda, Nepi starts out as “a Southern ornamental wife” (and Jewish

mother), a free spirit, who “may have married for the wrong reasons.”

Lucinda’s daughter Charlotte (white and Jewish) had defied her parents and turned down opportunities at more prestigious schools to share a college experience at a Deep South university with her roommate and best friend Jonny (black and Christian). He has been almost a family member since childhood.

Their college room is the scene: They have invited Charlotte’s parents, Lucinda and Howard, for dinner (soup and dry bread).

Father Howard writes mysteries and is the subject of Jonny’s college thesis, which offers an analysis ... and issues.

Nepi commented that the play, at times, may show a kindred spirit to Edward Albee’s powerful “Whose Afraid of Virginia Woolf,” in which she has also performed, with its look at a disintegrating marriage.

“It’s thoughtful, perhaps a strain autobiographical … It comes full circle — with all kinds of secrets …”

Involvement in a new play is sort of like catnip for an experienced actor.

Nepi said she “had found myself in a decent number of classics …” This offers a different sort of challenge for a cast — and for an audience.

Thousands climb in remembrance of 9/11 The Colorado 9/11 stair climb drew 2,000

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The registration table was scattered with badges, each one with the face of someone who lost their life on Sept. 11, 2001.

As the American flag flapped in the wind, attached to two fire truck ladders, more than 2,000 firefighters, paramedics and civilians readied to climb 110 flights of stairs at Red Rocks Amphitheater — a memorial to the 110 stories climbed by firefighters 16 years ago at the World Trade Center.

“We all remember 9/11 — where you were at, what you were doing, how you felt,” said Laurelyn Norberry, 32, a volunteer firefighter with Evergreen Fire and Rescue. “So this is our chance to remember, pay respects and do something to

honor those who have fallen.”

The ninth annual Colorado 9/11 Stair Climb drew climbers from 60 fire departments and 16 states.

The Stair Climb benefits the FDNY Counseling Services Unit and the programs provided by the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation to support the families of our nation’s fallen.

As tribute, many firefighters climbed in full bunker gear.

“It’s just the culture,” said Lt. Brenden Finnegan with West Metro Fire. “It shows respect to the firefighters who work in NYC and lost their lives that day.”

Finnegan has been participating in the event since it began.

“It’s a great experience to come and be with all your friends and family crew members and remember 9/11,” he said. “Some of us lost friends in the towers — both firefighters and civilians. It’s just a good experience to be part of.”

verybody knew him when he walked into the room and he received a loud ovation.

Brent Adams was introduced Sept. 5 as the new boys OVERTIME lacrosse coach for the Falcons of Highlands Ranch High School.

He became another well-recognized lacrosse coach as the sport continues to draw qualified coaches to Colorado high school teams.

I recall years ago Jim Benton when there were derogatory comments about the quality of prep soccer coaches, but the remarks have quieted as more knowledgeable people have joined the coaching ranks.

Those kinds of observations never began in lacrosse, which has attracted top college and professional players to coach at many schools.

Adams, who was an All-American selection at Fairfield University, comes from Valor Christian, where he was an assistant coach under former professional lacrosse legend John Grant Jr. Adams played for the Chesapeake Bayhawks and Boston Cannons of Major League Lacrosse.

In 2016 he signed with the Denver Outlaws of the MLL and is currently in the second year of a two-year contract with the Colorado Mammoth of the National Lacrosse League.

Adams, 26, replaces Outlaws captain Matt Bocklet who left Highlands Ranch to coach defending state champion Cherry Creek.

“If you have a coach that is creditable, for lack of a better word, it allows players to commit to the sport a little more when they know they are getting good instruction that you really can’t find at a lot of schools,” said Adams.

“I’m going to be hands-on as much as I can. I think the players will benefit from that. Lacrosse has done so much for me in my life that I can’t wait to give back as much as I possibly can.”

Help-wanted sign out for officials There is a critical shortage of officials for almost every high school sport for all levels.

The Colorado High School Activities Association offered clinics over the summer in an attempt to recruit new personnel, and CHSAA Commissioner Rhonda Blanford-Green claims the workshops were successful.

“We saw a little bit of growth,” she said. “We are now even thinking about being at some job fairs on the collegiate level. When you see the percentage of college people that don’t play college sports but have knowledge of SEE BENTON, P26

Warriors retain Brookridge trophy Arapahoe posts 28-13 win over Heritage in long-standing rivalry

BY BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The cheering of the Arapahoe and Heritage students, parents and alumni was loud Sept. 8 when the Warriors and Eagles continued the Brookridge Trophy rivalry football game that dates to 1972.

Arapahoe was able to post a 28-13 win at Littleton Public Schools Stadium and keep the trophy.

“This rivalry is just as important to both schools as it was in the late 1980s when I played football for Arapahoe,” Warriors coach Mike Campbell said. “Everyone gets excited and comes out to cheer for their team. The crowds were just as big and just as loud as they were when I played in this game.

This is a natural rivalry and a lot of the credit goes to former coaches Mike Griebel at Heritage and Paul Nelson at Arapahoe. They made this

cover the trophy with the score of each game played starting in 1972. Red plaques designate Heritage wins and black plaques designate

Arapahoe wins. It is a traveling trophy and the winning team gets to keep it for a year.

The Sept. 8 game remained scoreless until late in the second quarter when Alex Smith scored on a 5-yard run for the Warriors.

Heritage countered before the end of the first half as Eagles kicker Christiano Palazzo split the uprights for a field goal to make the score 7-3.

In the third period Matt Phelan scored the first of his two touchdowns for Arapahoe. Again, Heritage responded as quarterback Joe Weigang had Eagles fans on their feet when he kept the ball, pulled out of the grasp of a wouldbe tacklers and ran 72 yards for a touchdown.

The Warriors held a 14-10 advantage going into the last quarter.

Warrior senior Smith ran the ball in for a touchdown and Palazzo kicked his second field goal to make the score 28-13.

In the final minute of the game, Heritage threatened with a first and 10 on the Warrior’s 11-yard-line. It

In previous columns we noted a

few of the reasons for the shortage, which include the aging of current officials, time commitment and pay.

Varsity officials for most sports get $58 a game but another factor hurting the recruitment of officials is the abuse directed at them from coaches and fans.

“We need to educate our parents about how to treat officials,” admitted Blanford-Green, who says the CHSAA is working on ways to give

officials more recognition. “The National Association for Sports Officials will tell you that pay is not the reason we lose officials.

“It has to do with three major areas. Retention and that has to do with how you’re treated, recognition and then pay. We are addressing the issues.”

came down to a fourth and seven, when Weigang threw a pass and Smith tackled Calob Gavin on the 1-yard-line to complete the goal-line stand. The Warriors ran out the clock and won the game. Warriors players, students and fans celebrated as Arapahoe retained the trophy.

“It was a solid game. We played hard, aggressive football but we have to correct some things because we were flagged for far too many penalties,” Campbell said. “This is a big game for both teams, you always want to beat your rival and we needed a win after losing last year.”

Heritage coach Tyler Knoblock said it was a special game against a very respected rival in Arapahoe.

“We played hard. The game was closer than the final twoscore difference, but we had some chances and didn’t put points on the board,” he said. “But I love our kids and I am proud of the way we played. We have some great young talent and I saw some kids grow up out there tonight. We played hard and we played better than we did last week and, of course, getting better every week is what we work to do.”

with our space missions to make sure that any samples or miscellaneous materials, such as planetary surfaces that might cling to our crafts, are not bringing harmful elements, or even organic matter, back to Earth.

Setting theology aside for a moment, it’s breathtaking to consider that there might be life elsewhere in the universe, life of any kind botanical, marine, animal or of a kind we currently can’t even fathom. And since the advent of film, the movies have portrayed the (usually dire) results of human life colliding with these extraterrestrials.

Hence, planetary protection for Earth.

On the flip side, of course, is planetary protection for the celestial bodies we touch, such as humans bouncing around on the moon and rover vehicles on Mars.

If we allow for the possibility that there are life forms we don’t know of or about, then we need plans to protect them as well.

All this intrigues me: How do we

How do we know what we are bringing back and what we are leaving behind?

As your Planetary Protection Officer, I will be tirelessly investigating these issues. And I will also apply lessons from our Earthly history to this task.

Preserve polar caps or any ice landscapes? Check. Minimize pollutants in the air and waterways? Check. Respect forestation, wildlife and marine habitats, and sacred and archeological sites?

Check.

To do my job properly, I’ll need the cooperation of, well, the entire planet.

Given that my employer, NASA, is an American government entity, I like to hope that the U.S. will lead the way in long-term preservation and protection strategies. But with the current rollback of environmental regulations to score short-term points, my job as Planetary Protection Officer may be more to protect Earth from her current residents than from any interplanetary invaders.

You are further notified that said Petition is set for a hearing on November 30, 2017 at 9 a.m. in Division 24 of the Arapahoe County District Court, 7325 S. Potomac Street, Centennial, Colorado 80112.
