MY NAME IS

Anne Clarke worked for her son’s Montessori school, but was laid off after budget cuts. Today she’s a full-time gardener.

DAVID GILBERT

ANNE CLARKE

Gardener, native, advocate for unconventional education Getting educated I worked at my son’s Montessori school for several years, but now I’m gardening full time. Before I had my son I was a nurse, but once he went to school I wanted to be part of his education. I worked in the kitchen, I did research, I helped in the afterschool care program — all sorts of things.

I always knew he was not a kid who was going to sit at a desk. I like Montessori because it’s student-led.

Last year in third grade, my son was able to do high school math. He gets to explore things in a different way.

I was laid off because they had budget cuts. Education is in a really difficult place. Teachers need two or three jobs to make ends meet. The funding for charter schools can be even more precarious. I’ve seen amazing people leave education because they just can’t make it work.

On the outside I don’t think I’d go back into education — it’s too uncertain. I’m finding it’s easier to advocate for my child from the outside. It’s easier than being on the inside, where I saw the inner workings and struggles of what schools need versus what they get.

Transitioning to gardening has been wild. I went from working in a busy energetic environment, and now I work for myself doing big garden installations. It’s really peaceful and quiet. I love being outside, and these days we get pretty lengthy summers.

Change is inevitable My son and I live with my sister.

My family’s all in the local area. My mom lives in Boulder, and my dad just passed this summer — he lived in Capitol Hill.

I’m a Colorado native. I think the changes in Colorado over the last few decades were inevitable, even though our infrastructure wasn’t ready for it. The traffic is frustrating, but this is such a great place to live, and that wasn’t going to stay a secret forever.

State’s suicide rate is high, but addressable, experts say CALM AFTER THE STORM

SM

The National Alliance on Mental Illness Colorado, or NAMI, provides mental health care referrals and support at 303-321-3104. You can also reach a trained counselor on the Crisis Text Line by texting NAMI to 741-741.

Visit the state Office of Suicide Prevention’s website Man Therapy for resources geared toward men in crisis at mantherapy.org. network, said Linda Newell, a former state senator who authored legislation that implemented the program.

“We were finding that there were missed opportunities for intervention,” said Littleton resident Newell. “A quarter of the people who complete suicide end up in front of their primary care doctor within a month before they do it, but there was no talk about suicide.

The myth that talking about it will encourage someone to do it doesn’t hold true — just the opposite.”

The program holds Zero Suicide Academies, building the skills of doctors, first responders, counselors, therapists and faith leaders to learn how to broach the subject with people, and how to respond and steer them to resources.

or

Men and guns Other programs developed or overseen by the Office of Suicide Prevention work to target specific aspects of the state suicide rate. Nearly four times more men die by suicide than women, for instance, spurring the creation of Man Therapy, a website geared toward reaching men in crisis.

“That higher rate has a lot of causes,” Brummett said. “It’s about the pressures on a man — what it means to be masculine. Men are less likely to seek out and receive any type of mental health service. We have to meet them where they are rather than waiting on them to knock on the door of mental health services.”

Other initiatives address methods of suicide. The Colorado Gun Shop Project, for example, seeks to engage what Brummett called “the firearm community” to spread prevention tactics — mainly encouraging friends and family to remove access to guns from people who are suicidal.

The program, which began in New Hampshire, addresses the fact that guns are the most common method of suicide in Colorado, and that nearly 80 percent of gun deaths in the state are suicides.

Resilience and recovery Looking at the death rates, however, paints a poor picture of those who experience suicidal ideation, Brummett said.

“For every one suicide, there are hundreds who have been there and moved past it,” Brummett said.

“There is recovery happening every day. The stories of hope and resilience aren’t those getting told, but those are the ones we need to hear.”

Creating more of those stories is the goal of the Zero Suicide Model, a program that seeks to spread suicide prevention and intervention training throughout a person’s support

Suicide in Colorado is often talked about in terms of statistics — the state is consistently in the top 10 in the country for suicide deaths.

But to Sarah Brummett, the director of the state Office of Suicide Prevention, the real story is not in numbers, but in working to impact the lives of the individual people struggling with suicidal thoughts.

“It’s about so much more than prevention and intervention,” Brummett said. “That’s like waiting for someone to show up in the emergency room with a heart attack, rather than talking about the lifestyle changes to prevent heart disease. We’ve got to talk about community health and wellness, about seeing suicide as part of a web of issues.”

Brummett leads an office at the forefront of coordinating resources to address the state’s stubbornly high suicide rate, and during September — National Suicide Prevention Month — she works to communicate the office’s efforts.

The statistics compiled by her office are disquieting: 1,175 Coloradans died by suicide in 2017, the highest number ever, and about twice as many as died in car wrecks. Colorado’s suicide rate was at 20.9 per 100,000 in 2017, compared to a national rate of 13.4 per 100,000.

Digging down further reveals other disturbing trends: Suicide is the leading cause of death among youths and young adults ages 10 to 24, and the seventh-leading cause of death for all Coloradans.

There are many ways to parse the statistics: Men are far more likely to die by suicide than women. Nearly 90 percent of suicide victims are under the influence of one or more drugs at the time of death. Certain trades have higher rates of suicide, including construction workers and emergency first responders.

If you or someone you know is experiencing suicidal thoughts or a mental health crisis, there are resources available.

Runners honor veterans, victims of 9/11

Nearly 200 runners — some carrying heavy military packs — convened in Reynolds Landing Park along the South Platte River on the morning of Sept. 9 to honor the nearly 3,000 people killed on Sept. 11, 2001.

The 5k race in Littleton was hosted by the Travis Manion Foundation, named in honor of Marine 1st Lt. Travis Manion, who was killed by a sniper in Iraq in 2007. The race also honored veterans, active duty military and first responders, said race committee member Jennifer Brookfield.

The race was one of dozens of 9/11 Heroes Runs held by the foundation around the country since 2007.

6th Congressional District a national nail-biter Coffman faces Democratic challenger Crow in battleground

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In a wide slice of the Denver suburbs — including a city where one in five people is foreign-born — Democrats have not been able to edge out Republican U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, who might as well be made of Teflon, according to political pundits.

Public-school students speak more than 160 languages in the district’s Coffman anchor, Aurora, a place where voters strongly favor Democrats.

In conventional political wisdom, the 6th Congressional District should have flipped blue long ago — the question on the national radar is if 2018 is the year it finally will.

Democratic challenger Jason Crow, in an election season over which Republican President Donald Trump looms large, hopes so. But analysts say Coffman has a strong foothold even in the more diverse parts Crow of his district.

“Coffman’s political obituary has been written a number of times,” said Seth Masket, a political science professor at the University of Denver.

But Coffman, a military veteran who grew up in the heart of Aurora, has persisted against well-known Democratic challengers. He won the seat in 2008 and has been re-elected four times.

“I know the district,” said Coffman, rattling off a list of communities that include vegetable farmers and people of Indian descent focused on the U.S.’s high-tech visa program. “I certainly understand the diversity of the district.”

In addition to Aurora, the district includes south suburbs like Centennial, Littleton and Highlands Ranch, which are strongly Republican, and to the north, Brighton and part of Thornton, which are part of decidedly blue Adams County. Aurora accounts for about 44 percent of the district’s roughly 815,000 people.

One of Crow’s main jabs is to paint Coffman as being in lockstep with Trump and out of touch with the people of the district.

“Talk is cheap,” Crow said. “People want someone more than who’s going to show up for the photo op.”

It’s a charge the congressman’s campaign vehemently denies.

Whether that point resonates — and how much of a role voters’ feelings about Trump can stoke a “blue

MONEY MATTERS Financial data for the period ending June 30, according to the Federal Election Commission: Jason Crow • Total receipts (contributions and other money received): $2,265,000 • Ending cash on hand: $1,295,000 Mike Coffman • Total receipts (contributions and other money received): $2,375,000 • Ending cash on hand: $1,612,000 wave” — may be part of the puzzle of predicting victory in this nationally watched district.

As goes CD6 ...

Which way the district leans will have implications that ring out far beyond Colorado, one veteran pundit said.

“If Coffman is defeated, it will definitely mean that the Democrats are going to take the U.S. House,” said Dick Wadhams, political strategist and former chair of the Colorado Republican Party. “If he survives, it means Republicans have a fighting chance to keep the House.”

In pushing a candidate who has never run for public office before, Democrats are playing to a broader strategy, Masket said. Crow, a former Army Ranger, served in Afghanistan and Iraq.

“They’ve clearly decided if they’re going to appeal to moderates in this district, they should try someone different,” Masket said. “The idea of someone outside of politics with a military background, that seems to be a formula Democrats have been drawing on a lot this year” across the country.

The past two Democrats who ran against Coffman were Andrew Romanoff in 2014 and Morgan Carroll in 2016, both of whom were established politicians after having served in the state Legislature. Romanoff served as state House speaker and Carroll as state Senate president.

Why such a toss-up?

In what’s often referred to as a “purple state,” the district has attracted national attention.

The Cook Political Report, a prominent, nonpartisan newsletter that analyzes elections, lists the district as one of 30 toss-ups in the country — and the only one in Colorado.

But don’t count Coffman out, pundits say. In a district where President Barack Obama won by 5 points in 2012, and Hillary Clinton beat Trump by 9 points, Coffman still won his races in both elections — in 2016, by 8 points.

How to get your garden ready for winter Winter watering, mulching key to keeping plants happy

ter for birds, Greene said, and ornamental grasses, sedum and coneflower make a nice decoration in winter months.

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Though the scorching summer of 2018 stuck around for a long time, the first freeze is likely just around the corner — usually in mid-October in the Denver area.

Here are some tips from Lucinda Greene, the Master Gardener Program coordinator at Arapahoe County’s CSU Extension office, on how to prepare your landscape to hunker down for winter.

Turf war “Fall fertilizing is the most important fertilization of the year,” Greene said. “It’s also a great time to aerate.

It gives your grass the best chance to start spring with healthy roots.”

Consider taking the bag off your lawn mower to let the clips fall where they may, Greene said, and if you have a mulching mower, consider simply mowing over fallen leaves instead of raking them up to add organic material to the soil.

Clean up your act Clean up dead plants from the veggie garden, Greene said, to avoid providing a breeding ground for pests and disease. Resist the urge to till up the ground, though, because that can inadvertently plant weed seeds that may have been sitting on top of the soil.

On the other hand, more gardeners are leaving perennial flowers and shrubs alone through the winter to provide extra visual appeal and a shel-

Mulch madness Adding mulch around perennials and trees — especially recently planted ones — can go a long way toward retaining moisture and regulating temperatures that can fluctuate wildly in winter months, Greene said.

“We want to hold in as much moisture as we can,” Greene said. “If we have another dry winter like last year, mulching makes a big difference.”

Plan to plant Fall can be a great time to plant, Greene said, especially with local garden centers running great deals on summer stock.

“You can absolutely still plant perennials and shrubs,” Greene said.

“You can even plant some food crops: garlic, for instance, can go in now. If you’ve got a cold frame or row covers, you can still do lettuce and spinach, almost right up until Christmas.”

Water, water everywhere Not enough gardeners water through the winter, Greene said.

“It’s really crucial in our arid environment to provide regular water to your landscape plants and lawn,” Greene said. “If this winter is as dry as last year, we’re talking about at least once a month.”

If you don’t feel like unrolling all the hoses again, landscaping companies can stop by with a water truck, Greene said, adding that leaving lawns dry through the winter makes them susceptible to spider mites.

CSU Extension publishes a lengthy fact sheet on fighting back, but Greene said among the most pollinator-friendly soil treatments are those containing Bacillus thuringiensis — BT for short — and beneficial nematodes.

“Keep in mind that the adults can fly a long way,” Greene said. “Just because you treat your yard doesn’t mean all your neighbors did too. You

might still see plenty of beetles next year.”

Batten down the hatches There are plenty of other fall chores to do, Greene said, such as wrapping young trees with tree wrap to prevent sunscald, unhooking and cleaning rain barrels, and taking stock of what worked and what didn’t in the garden this year.

“It’s a busy time for gardeners,” Greene said.

OKTOBERFEST offers authentic fun

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

N

ot every wedding couple gets a toast from a mythical goat-demon, but Steven and Cherilyn Troyer aren’t every couple. The pair tied the knot at Schatzi’s Oktoberfest at Bega Park in Littleton on Sept. 15, in a ceremony that paid tribute to the first Oktoberfest in Germany in 1810 that celebrated the marriage of a prince and princess.

Krampus, a horned creature from Germanic folklore — played by Reinke Bros. costume shop employee Marian O’Brien-Clark — hoisted an oversized stein to wish the happy couple “blessings and health.”

The three-day festival came to Littleton this year after many years in Parker, and featured a decidedly authentic vibe. Dirndls and lederhosen abounded, and attendees nibbled schnitzel and strudel while others danced to polkas and waltzes courtesy of German musician Peter Kron.

The festival was a warm reminder of life in the old country, said Manuela Seewald of Sweet Lorraine’s Catering, who grew up in Switzerland.

“It’s the little things,” said Seewald as she heaped sauerkraut atop a knockwurst sausage. “It feels like I’m back home.”

The wedding hearkens back to Oktoberfest’s origins celebrating the wedding of a prince and princess, said organizer Susan Quarles.

Health of city budget hinges on fire vote, officials say Long-term projections look grim if voters reject inclusion

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Littleton’s budget reserves are set to shrink in coming years, according to projections in the city’s proposed 2019 budget, but by how much will depend on whether voters approve a measure to include the city in the boundaries of South Metro Fire Rescue.

The proposed 2019 budget, which won’t be up for approval until November, shows a 25 percent decrease in the size of the general fund. The change reflects the departure of the city’s two fire partner districts, which will become part of South Metro in January. Littleton will begin contracting with South Metro for fire protection in 2019, but voters will decide if Littleton becomes a full-fledged member of the district in future years or simply continues on a contractual basis.

Without the money the fire partners pay to Littleton, the general fund will shrink from $64.8 million this year to roughly $48.4 million in 2019.

Of that money, the city anticipates being able to hold $11.6 million — roughly 23 percent — in reserve, comparable to fund reserves in recent years. By 2023, however, the city anticipates it will only be able to hold $7.6 million in reserve — about 16 percent of the fund.

There’s a catch, though: That projection holds true only if voters approve the fire inclusion measure, a plan that would result in a property tax increase for homeowners. If voters turn down inclusion, Littleton will continue contracting with South Metro, but paying the difference out of pocket without raising taxes.

The result, according to projections, is that by 2023 Littleton would only have $2.5 million in reserves — just 4 percent of the budget.

Cutting the reserves that close is dangerous, said City Manager Mark Relph.

“It’s just irresponsible,” Relph said.

“We would have no choice but to cut services.”

Relph was reluctant to identify where the cuts would come from, suggesting a hard look at every city department to identify non-essential services.

Mayor Debbie Brinkman was more blunt.

“We’d have to consider the library and museum — they’re not essential services,” Brinkman said. “That’s the doomsday scenario. I don’t know what that would look like, maybe cutting hours and staff, but it’s sure easier than cuts to police or snowplowing.”

Narrowing numbers Even if voters approve inclusion, the city’s general fund will see the gap between expenditures and revenue narrow in coming years, as payroll and other costs are expected to climb at a faster rate than revenue growth.

City finance director Tiffany Hooten holds a copy of Littleton’s proposed 2019 budget. The size of the general fund is anticipated to be 25 percent smaller than the 2018 budget due to the departure of Littleton’s two fire partners.

and infrastructure.

The fund’s revenues come from gasoline taxes and one-time building use taxes. The gasoline tax revenue has been slowing in recent years as vehicles become more fuel-efficient, Relph said, and the building use tax revenues can fluctuate wildly from year to year.

The fund is expected to begin 2019 with $9.5 million, which Relph called woefully inadequate to address a backlog of issues, including a variety of road projects that could soar into the tens of millions of dollars.

Fixing traffic congestion issues at Mineral Avenue and Santa Fe Drive could require the city to pony up $20 million to put into a pot with other agencies to pay for the project, Relph said.

Still, Relph is hopeful that voters will approve the fire inclusion measure, which would trigger automatic transfers of more than $3 million a year from the general fund to be earmarked for road repairs. While not enough to pay for big-ticket projects, the money could pay for deferred maintenance on city streets.

“Citizen surveys keep telling us that road repairs are a high priority,” Relph said. “Well, this is it. This is the answer.”

Relph and Mayor Brinkman both pointed to citizen surveys that show support for a sales tax increase as a means to shore up the capital projects fund.

Overall, Brinkman said, she’s pleased with the budget.

“I feel good about the thoughtful and intentional conversations we’ve had,” Brinkman said. “We have a pretty good roadmap and plan of how we’re going to work through our future needs.”

Attorney general candidates clash over credentials in debate ASSOCIATED PRESS

Colorado’s major party candidates for attorney general engaged in their first debate over their respective credentials in their race to succeed Republican Cynthia Coffman.

The Grand Junction Daily Sentinel reports that Republican George Brauchler and Democrat Phil Weiser

challenged each other’s experience during the Sept. 8 debate sponsored

by Club 20, an association of counties in western Colorado.

Brauchler is the 18th Judicial District attorney widely known for prosecuting Aurora theater shooter James Holmes.

Weiser is a former University of Colorado law school dean who served

as a deputy attorney general under President Barack Obama. He also clerked for U.S. Supreme Court Justices Byron White and Ruth Bader Ginsburg and served in the Justice Department under President Bill Clinton.

“My career has been one of service, starting in the Supreme Court, working in the Justice Department under two presidents,’’ Weiser said at the debate in Grand Junction.

“The attorney general is the protector of Colorado ... and I have spent my entire life as a defender, a protector,’’ Brauchler countered. “A Brauchler defense attorney, a prosecutor, I’ve been a civil plaintiffs lawyer, a civil defense lawyer, I’ve been a military prosecutor and a military defense lawyer. I have tried cases at every single level, municipal, state, federal and military.’’

Coffman, who was Weiser elected in 2014, mounted an unsuccessful bid for her party’s gubernatorial nomination this year.

“Owning a firearm doesn’t make you suicidal,” Brummett said. “But if you have access to a gun in a time of crisis, you’re more likely to die. You won’t get a second chance to move into that period of recovery.”

Finding answers to why Why does Colorado have such a high rate of suicide, and why, in the face of a slew of comprehensive efforts aimed at addressing suicide, don’t the numbers come down?

The answers are complex, Brummett said.

“We have a fierce, independent spirit in the West,” Brummett said. “It’s fantastic for blazing trails and pushing the limits, but it can be troublesome when we need help. We’ve also got a lot of rural areas, which can lead to isolation from neighbors and mental health care. Also, quite frankly, we have higher rates of gun ownership.”

As far as bringing down the numbers, Brummett said she’d love to be able to implement the office’s programs universally across the state, as opposed to a piecemeal fashion limited by funds and resources.

Looking ahead, Brummett said she hopes to keep working on more of those connections to other areas of community health and wellness.

Junction event.

Brian Watson, CEO of an investment firm and the Republican treasurer candidate, questioned whether Democratic state Rep. Dave Young had the business experience needed for the position.

“The role of the treasurer of Colorado is different than the founder and CEO of a company,’’ Watson said. “You have to understand that what goes up comes down, and somebody like you who has never invested your own capital alongside other people to try to make return, you may not understand the risk and reward.’’

Young cited his work as a member of the legislature’s powerful Joint Budget Committee.

“I have an actual fiduciary responsibility to the state, like the treasurer’s office, so I actually have that experience,’’ he said.

Democrat Jena Griswold, an attorney seeking to unseat Republican Secretary of State Wayne Williams, declared that the office should do a better job of helping businesses register.

“Excellent suggestion,’’ Williams responded. “We just did it.’’

Williams and the office of Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper created a website this year to guide entrepreneurs through each step of the business registration process.

ALARMING NUMBERS According to the 2017 Healthy Kids Colorado survey, 7 percent of Colorado high schoolers reported attempting suicide in the prior year. Among heterosexual students, the rate was 5.1 percent, but among gay, lesbian and bisexual students, the rate was 19.9 percent. The 2015 survey found that a third of transgender students reported attempting suicide in the prior year.

Youths who have an adult to go to for help are 3.5 times less likely to attempt suicide, according to the state Office of Suicide Prevention.

Colorado’s overall suicide rate is 20.9 per 100,000 people, but the rate among veterans was 38.7 per 100,000 in 2015, according to the Department of Veterans Affairs.

More than a quarter of people who died by suicide between 2012-2016 were engaged in some form of mental health treatment at the time of their death, according to data from the Colorado Violent Death Reporting System.

The same report also found that a third of suicide victims were experiencing problems with an intimate partner prior to death, 28 percent were experiencing problems with alcohol, and 14.3 percent had financial problems. ity.

Brothers Redevelopment helps seniors age in place with upgrades to houses

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Lorine Ventrella beamed as a horde of volunteers painted her house on Sept. 13, bringing new life to the southeast Littleton home Ventrella has lived in since 1960, when the view off the back porch was of horse pastures stretching into the distance.

Ventrella, 89, was one of the dozens of recipients of home upgrade projects this year arranged by Brothers Redevelopment, a housing-focused nonprofit. Nearly 40 volunteers from Consolidated Investment Group and the Merage Foundations mobbed Ventrella’s home on two mornings in September, painting the house and carport and trimming overgrown cottonwoods hanging over the roof.

“It just does my heart good to see this old place looking so fresh again,” Ventrella said, surveying the crew’s work. “Not only that, but it’s just good having these folks here. They’re all so nice.”

Helping take care of elderly residents’ homes does a lot to improve

their morale, said Emilio Taltique, a volunteer with Brothers Redevelopment.

“It helps them feel better about their homes,” Taltique said. “They feel more connected to neighbors. The volunteers are from the neighborhood, too, so it’s not just some folks who descend one day and you never see them again.”

Brothers provides a variety of services, Taltique said, including modifying homes with wheelchair ramps and other devices to help the elderly stay in their homes longer.

“We know people stay healthier, live longer, and are happier when they’re able to stay in their own homes, and even small things can really facilitate that,” Taltique said.

One of the barriers to projects like painting Ventrella’s home, Taltique said, is that older residents may think the group is a scam when they come knocking with an offer to paint the home for free.

“I assure you, we’re the real deal,” Taltique said.

The volunteers got something out of the deal too, said Katie Lunde, a spokesperson for Merage: the joy of giving back.

“The best part for me was when Ms. Ventrella stepped outside, and her face just lit up as she told us how beautiful it all looked,” Lunde said.

IN THEIR BUSINESS Counseling office opens Starting Today, which provides substance use/addiction assessment, outpatient and recovery services, recently opened at 2305 E. Arapahoe Road, Suite 122, near the Streets at SouthGlenn in Centennial.

Starting Today is licensed as a substance use disorder center and offers Level I DUI Education, Level II DUI Education and Level II DUI Therapy groups for outpatient services and recovery services including relapse prevention and Intense Outpatient treatment.

Additionally, Starting Today offers free, bi-weekly parent support meetings, led by parents of children struggling with a substance use disorder or in recovery. Meetings are open to the public.

Day-by-day for 20 years adds up to just one day

nless they have taken it all down, there are still some reminders at my alma mater that I passed through there 20 years ago. I donated three or four paintings, maybe more. I can’t remember.

I was enrolled on Wednesday, Sept. 30, 1998, and given a number. I was Patient 4050.

Some of my classmates were well educated and well off. Others were down on their luck, in poor health, financially strapped, and facing marital separations. A few of my classmates were returning to school for the third or fourth or fifth time.

A number of my classmates didn’t graduate, and a couple of

them have died.

The campus back then was beautiful. I haven’t been out there in a while, but I’m sure it still is.

I had some exceptional teachers. I don’t think you can be a good teacher unless you know firsthand what you are talking about, and mine had been through what I was going

through.

I had been hearing it for years: what I should and shouldn’t do, but I wasn’t listening, until my best friend gave me two choices.

He and I were sitting on a bench outside St. Luke’s, where I had detoxed.

friends, or customers anywhere on the planet used to be something that we would see in science fiction and now it is an everyday occurrence.

It’s such a small world isn’t it? It’s a small world yet a giant world with enormous opportunities everywhere.

Somehow, some of us have developed a fear of that great big world out there. We have developed a fear of other people and other countries.

We have become suspicious and have started looking and waiting for the bad things to happen. The fact is, most of what we fear and worry about has little merit.

The world is filled with much more opportunity, adventure, and amazing experiences than anything worth worrying about or holding us back from enjoying this great big world, and from finding opportunities to go places and experience things we once only dreamed of.

OK. So maybe just one more plug for doing something bigger and better for the world, whether it is locally or globally. When you think about this small world with huge opportunities, listen to the song by Jana Stanfield, “All the Good.” In her song she sings, “I can’t do all the good that the world needs, but the world needs all the good I can do.”

Huge opportunities in a small world, in a small country, in a small state, in a small town, and all getting smaller by the day.

How about you? Have you had some small world experiences yourself ? Are you experiencing the opportunities the world has to offer?

As always, I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we can experience and enjoy the small world and the enormous opportunities waiting for us, it really will be a better than good week.

OBITUARIES HUNTER

Joshua Paul Lafayette Hunter June 13, 1998 – September 10, 2018

Joshua Hunter was born June 13, 1998 in Denver, Colorado. Due to an umbilical cord accident he had CerebralPalsy and was severely disabled. He was not able to use his limbs normally or talk, yet he was very creative in finding ways to express when he was happy, saying hello and goodbye.

He attended school and was able to use a “talker” a special device he activated with his hand to “speak” when he had questions, comments, or wanted to start a conversation. One time someone said within his earshot that he was an eavesdropper and he laughed. He loved to laugh. Joshua enjoyed his classmates and they enjoyed him. He enjoyed camping with the family and bumpy walks, the bumpier the better. Joshua participated in Unified Basketball while attending Littleton High School. He loved going to Colorado Rockies baseball games.

He loved the slap stick comedy on the videos he watched. Joshua cared about other people and was not happy until they were happy. He participated in horse therapy at both Saddle

Up and Promise Ranch.

Joshua loved riding horses and was featured on a 9news storyteller story about the riding program. He loved making messes, the messier the better. Joshua was a big flirt, anytime of the year, using his talker he would ask various women to be his Valentine. He had knockknock jokes on his talker and would listen to them and laugh loudly.

Joshua enjoyed music and would sing along with music he liked. Joshua was very sweet, loving, and surprisingly patient. He was loved by many people and will be greatly missed. He died peacefully at home on September 10, 2018 in Littleton, Colorado. He is survived by his parents Jeff and Grace Hunter, two brothers Ben (Charise), Andrew (Ashley), and his sister Laura Hunter. Grandparents Don and Abbie Weaver, and Grandmother Naomi Hunter, aunts, uncles and cousins.

History provides inspiration for two plays in metro area Denver, Aurora stages give audiences a look at productions based on reality

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Playwrights have drawn plots from history since this grand tradition of storytelling began. We visited two over the weekend that are very different, yet both very much worth a visit during the month or so they’re available — with powerful stories and strong acting: “The Cake” at Curious Theatre in Denver and “Kentucky Cycle” at Vintage Theatre in Aurora.

• “Kentucky Cycle Parts 1 & 2” by Robert Schenkkan, won a Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1992, when it premiered at Seattle’s Inman Theatre — the only Pulitzer that was not first presented in New York. Linda Suttle of Littleton was excited to be cast in this epic work and plays several parts as the nine short plays, presented in two parts, tell histories of three families, white, black and American Indian, and the ongoing struggles over land in the Cumberland Plateau as the nation formed and changed.

A timeline in American history might be worth checking if it’s been a while for the theater fan—but that’s not essential.

Stage sets throughout are necessarily simple and suggest where the story is going.

We first meet Michael Rowan (Perry Lewis) in “Masters of the Trade,” as he establishes claim to a piece of land, which had been Indian territory, in a forest scene with trappers, Cherokee people and mountain man types. He next captures an American Indian woman (Christin Mason) to be his wife — and servant — in “The Courtship of Morning Star” (1776).

Here one has two options: You can see this on two different days, or plan on afternoon and evening, with time out for dinner in between. (Vintage offers dinner on site ($15), by advance reservation — or one could go out nearby and return for Part 2.

Part 2 begins with “Tall Tales” in 1890, where subsequent-generation Rowans, Jed and Lallie, appear, and there is an offer for the ancestral land … Another chapter in American history begins here when the lush green land is stripped bit by bit as coal mines are developed. Local men go to work in the mines and another sort of cultural legend builds.

Joshua Rowan is a labor organizer and “Fire in the Hole” addresses political and social currents, as well as explosion when safety issues aren’t addressed. The anguished wait for the list of dead strains everyone involved as we move on to 1954, “Whose Side are You On?”— more political disagreements and Suttle as Margaret Rowan. The mines have slowed down and finally, in the last segment, “The War on Poverty,” the once-fertile land is laid waste and social programs aid unemployed miners’ families as they exist in poverty in 1975 — and on.

No upbeat songs and tap-dancing

here, but a solid work of art that will become part of our national body of C legends. See it while you can.

•Í “The Cake” by Bekkah D Brunsteter, presented by Curious Theatre in Denver, is based on the very-familiar-to-Coloradans story N of the baker who refused to create a wedding cake for a gay couple, based on religious conviction. David Mullins and Charlie Craig sued the Masterpiece Cake Shop in Lakewood,R claiming that Colorado law prohibited businesses from refusing service based on a buyer’s sexual orientation. In 2013, Judge Robert Spencer determined that Masterpiece had violated Colorado law and Masterpiece appealed. The Colorado Civil Rights Commission became involved in 2014 and the case ended up in front of the U.S. Supreme Court, which ruled in favor of Masterpiece in June, saying the Civil Rights Commission used bias in its decision.

“The Cake” opens in Della’s Sweet Shop in today’s North Carolina, with Della (the excellent actress Emma Messenger, making her debut at Curious) talking happily about the wonderful qualities of a cake — the butter and sugar and loving care — as she works on one. “People say `I can do that!’” she notes. “I say to those people `the only way you get that taste is the taste of time and obedience …’” She is set on always following the instructions exactly — in the bakery and in life, where the Bible and her church guide her.

The simple set includes a pair of pastry cases, tables and chairs, and the stage is lit by a colorful sign. One SEE HISTORY, P19

He said, “I will take you home or I will take you to Parker Valley Hope.

If you want to go home, I am through with you.” Tough love.

My behavior had been a burden to him for years.

We sat there for a couple of minutes, and neither one of us said a word.

Then I said, “Take me to McDonald’s, and then take me to Parker.

Please.”

An hour after I was checked in, a man almost my age checked himself in. His name was “John” and he had a bandage on his head.

He grumbled at me and I grumbled at him.

For the next month, we provoked and badgered and needled each other.

And we became friends like no others I have ever had.

Don’t do it my way.

I don’t think I would be here if I had done it my way 20 years ago, if that helps anyone.

If it takes meetings and sponsors, slogans, prayers, meditation, retreats, therapists, new friends, new hobbies, new anything, do it. Nothing — nothing — is better than waking up without a hangover, and nothing is more important to me than my sobriety. Not even Jennifer. If I’m not sober, I don’t have Jennifer.

Thousands remember 9/11 at Colorado Memorial Stair Climb Red Rocks Amphitheatre event raises money for good causes

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

M

ore than 2,300 people gathered the morning of Tuesday, Sept. 11 to “never forget.” The participants of the 2018 Colorado 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb paid tribute to the 343 New York City firefighters and almost 3,000 Americans who died on 9/11 by climbing the equivalent of the 110 stories of the World Trade Center.

“It’s all about keeping our promise we made to never forget,” said Shawn Duncan, coordinator of the Colorado climb and lieutenant at West Metro Fire. “That’s why we do this every year.”

In the 10th year of the climb at Red Rocks Amphitheatre, over 45 fire departments from 25 states and Canada were joined by community members.

Each climber wore a badge of one of the firefighters killed on 9/11.

The Phoenix Fire Department was one that sent representation to join the climb. Sam Jones, who was born and raised in Colorado and attended Warren Tech, was one of the firefighters representing Phoenix.

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. Over $1 million is raised annually.

Colorado’s Stair Climb is one of more than 40 stair climbs held around the world and is the largest and most well attended in the country.

T.J. Ricciardi climbed with West Metro Recruit Class 1802.

THEATER

IF YOU GO

FROM PAGE 15

Johnny, played by a strong Brian Robertson from Greeley, debuting at Town Hall, asks friends Tunny (Ben Fowler), also new to Town Hall, and Will (Caleb Reed), another new face, to join him in escaping to “the city.”

Will’s girlfriend, Heather (Lynzee Lee Jones) has just told him she’s pregnant, so he feels he must stay with her, but he just lives in a beerfilled depressed haze, with no interest in the baby.

Tunny goes with Johnny, but oppressed by the city, soon opts to join the Army and ships off to war. Scenes are given related dates: Feb. 6, Johnny stole money from mom’s purse for bus fare. Feb. 24, we hear a disillusioned Johnny, with guitar, sing “Boulevard of Broken Dreams.”

Soon, there’s a military scene when Tunny leaves for the Army. (“Are We the Waiting?”)

“Is this my life?” the directionless Johnny wonders.

Enter a riveting Matt La Fontaine as St. Jimmy, brandishing a hypodermic — bringing heroin into Johnny’s life … St. Jimmy is perched high above the action for much of the remaining performance — sending out vibes.

With fairly minimal set, director Sugar makes it all work by how and where his actors perform — strong voices, tight choreography.

HISTORY FROM PAGE 16

can almost smell something good in the oven after meeting Della.

Della dreams about being on television — on the “Great American Bakery Show” — and has entered. A screen talks to her as she works — sometimes thundering criticism (the voice of God?). Della is a sweet character and one can’t help but like her.

Macy (Jada Susan Dixon) enters and observes that she’s heard those shows are rigged — showing her edgy New York persona, adding a crack about basing one’s life on a book that’s hundreds of years old.

“I feel there’s a whole lot of goodness in the world,” sweet Della says in response — totally sincere — offering Macy a slice of her special cake. “I don’t eat cake” is the reply …

Enter Jen (Alaina Beth Reel), the daughter of Della’s best friend, who has come to talk about a cake for her upcoming wedding. But when Della learns that Jen and Macy are to be married, she suddenly finds that her calendar is too full to bake one for them. The play continues with dialogue between these women

and between Macy and Jen — and then turns for a while to Della’s life with her husband, Tim, and some very brave and funny scenes between the pair.

Tim is played by Michael Morgan, also a very strong actor, and interaction is delicately presented and sweet.

Playwright Bekkah Brunstetter, who grew up in a conservative North Carolina family, spoke about her own responses: “I hear the other point of view echoing in my head … I see myself getting split, ripped in half. On both sides, they’re forgetting the human being that’s at the center of this.” She continued: “A lot of plays are more on the scathing side when it comes to organized religion. It was really important to me to start with a character who has conservative values and make her the hero,” she told the Los Angeles Times.

And, Emma Messenger play the part to a T. It’s a don’t-miss performance.

If you go: “Kentucky Cycle” plays through Oct. 21 at Vintage Theatre, 1468 Dayton St., Aurora, vintagetheatre.org, 303-856-7830.

“The Cake” plays through Oct. 13 at Curious Theatre, 1080 Acoma St., Denver. 303623-0524, curioustheatre,org

SPORTS STUDENT-ATHLETE STUDENT ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT

It’s all about kicks and sticks ‘Lacrosse definitely helps me stay conditioned year round. Even though the sports don’t look the same, there are some strategies that are the same.’

Senior Adam Hangland plays soccer, lacrosse for Arapahoe High School

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A

dam Hangland has learned to balance being a two-sport

athlete.

The Arapahoe senior is currently a valuable member of the Warriors’ soccer team, but his main sport is lacrosse, which is played in the spring for Arapahoe and summer for his club team.

“I play a little bit bigger role in lacrosse as far as playing time,” said Hangland, who started playing soccer when he

September 20, 2018S

moved from Adams City and noticed how popular the sport was at Arapahoe.

“Usually, I play lacrosse most of the year.

Even now, I sometimes play lacrosse on the weekends.

“The transition into lacrosse is usually a lot smoother than soccer for me because I’m gone most of the summer playing lacrosse back East (with the Colorado Fire club team). So when I come back, I get right back into soccer, which is a little hard. Right after soccer, I jump back into lacrosse.”

COACH’S TAKE: “Adam is unique. He’s a two-sport varsity athlete and we don’t see multiple-sport athletes any more. Lacrosse is his main sport. As a senior, he’s become an incredibly important part of our success. His soccer skills have improved so much.”

Mark Hampshire, Arapahoe boys soccer coach

Q&A with Hangland What’s your favorite pre-game meal?

Grilled chicken and rice — a little protein and carbs, which gives me enough energy.

Who is your favorite athlete?

I like Cam Newton. He has a lot of flair, which I like, and he’s not afraid to speak his mind.

What music do you listen to before a game and why?

I listen to a lot of rap, but the weird thing is on the drive over to the game I listen to country music. But then right before the game, I will listen to rap because it calms me down and makes me excited before we play.

What or who motivates you most to excel in sports?

Probably my parents.

My dad played Division I football and my mom played

sports all through high school. They always supported me no matter what I wanted to do.

What is your favorite class in school and why?

Science. I’ve always been interested in that.

What do you like to do away from sports and school?

I really like to fish and be outside. I go up to the mountains a lot and ski quite a bit. We live in an outdoor state so why not take advantage of that?

What are your plans after high school?

I want to play lacrosse. I am deciding between a few schools right now. I will probably go into engineering if I don’t go to the Air Force Academy. If I do go to Air Force, I’ll be in the military for a couple years.

Have a suggestion for whom to feature in Student-Athlete Spotlight?

Key stats | In six games, Hangland has two goals on six shots and is tied for third on the Arapahoe goal-scoring chart.

Adjusting to new place, sport’s pace

R

ebecca Guggenbach is a 16-year-old with a passion for music.

She never had time to participate in athletic activities in the past, but she is on the Mountain Vista girls cross country team this season.

Guggenbach OVERTIME is an exchange student from Switzerland who is living with a host family.

“In my country, I do a lot of music,” she said.

“I play the cello and bass. I’m in Jim Benton an orchestra and band, so I had to be there every day. When I came here, I said I had to do something completely different. I picked cross country.

Everybody can join cross country, even if you are not the fastest.

“I really enjoy cross country.

Everybody is so nice. It was hard at first because the altitude is so much higher than in Switzerland.

I got used to it because we do it every day and I really like the races on Saturday.”

Mountain Vista is both the defending boys and girls cross country state champions and coach Jonathan Dalby invites anybody to join the team. He tries to include runners in various competitions during the season.

“Rebecca is improving a lot,” said Dalby. “She is not one of our top kids but is a hard worker with a really positive attitude.”

Guggenbach ran an 18:02.00 in the junior varsity race on Aug. 24 at the Vista Nation 2-Mile Invitational. She clocked a 26:29.00 on Aug. 31 at the Warrior Invitational in Centennial.

“I’ve done pretty good because I’ve never raced before,” Guggenbach said. “I’m glad I wasn’t last in any of the races. It is really hard to keep up with the best runners.”

Guggenbach is enjoying her time in Colorado at Mountain Vista, meeting new friends and polishing up on her English.

Alpine skiing, hockey, tennis, football (soccer) and Schwingen (wrestling) are the popular sports in Switzerland but Guggenbach is thinking about continuing here athletic endeavors at Mountain Vista. She may try out for girls swimming in the winter or track in the spring.

CCU’s soccer team welcomes 10-year-old Joel Zamora, who is fighting cancer, is honorary member

BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Joel Zamora, 10, walked up to a table at Colorado Christian University in Lakewood with a big, beaming smile.

From the look on his face, you wouldn’t know he suffers from a bone cancer called osteosarcoma — but that didn’t matter to him that night.

Zamora, who lives in Littleton, has always loved soccer, and he was preparing to sign his national letter of intent to join CCU’s men’s soccer team.

“It means a lot to me to be part of the team,” said Zamora, whose left leg was partially amputated because of the cancer. “I used to play soccer every day, and I’m excited to be part of the team.”

The CCU men’s soccer team and IMPACT, a Boston nonprofit organization that connects children facing chronic illnesses with local college athletic teams to form lifelong bonds, teamed up to give Zamora the experience.

The team, along with the school’s cheerleaders, cheered Zamora as he

Osteosarcoma is the most common type of cancer that starts in the bones, and it mostly affects children and teenagers. Doctors found the cancer in Zamora’s leg a year ago and had to partially amputate his leg. Zamora is scheduled for another surgery, because doctors discovered a spot on his lung, according to his father, Isaac Zamora.

The surgery will determine whether the spot is cancerous or not.

“It was hard on all of us, but the whole time (Zamora) had a smile on his face, whether he got sick, whether he was in the hospital,” Isaac Zamora, said. “He kept persisting and kept fighting his way through. And he kept inspiring not only the people around him, but (his parents) and his brother.” reached four with a 9-1 setback to Regis Jesuit on Sept. 14.

Thousands of runners, walkers and volunteers are expected for Run the Rocks, an American Lung Association event to raise awareness and money in the fight for clean air and healthy lungs.

Live local bands perform and awards are presented to the top fundraising teams and individuals and for the fastest race finishers.

The event begins at 9 a.m. Friday, Oct. 14. Early registration costs of $45 for the 5K and $55 for the 10K are offered through Oct. 5. Day-of regis-

Parking problem It is so refreshing to see rivalry football games with the stands full.

Fans and students have to arrive early to get seats for games like Douglas County vs. Castle View, for example.

People are asked to sit close together to maybe create an open seat.

The biggest problem is getting out of the parking lots. Plan on at least 30 minutes to exit.

Young golfers fare well The Timm Academy All-Stars, a

tration costs increase to $50 for the 5K and $60 for the 10K. Through Run the Rocks, the American Lung Association is championing the fight for clean air and healthy lungs.

While the Clean Air Act has helped to improve the air quality of the United States, much work is still to be done here. Denver is the 11th worst city in the country for ozone pollution and last year, and Denver County received a Grade F for particle pollution, according to a news release.

The goal of Run the Rocks is to raise nearly $100,000 to support research and lung health programs in Colorado. Whether running as a part of a healthy lifestyle, to beat a previous time, or in honor of all those affected by lung disease, participants are joining a great cause and making a difference towards ending lung disease and improving our air.

Ryan, Megan Gutwein, Berg Hill Greenleaf Ruscitti LLP, 1712 Pearl Street, Boulder, CO 80302, (303) 402-1600. APPLICATION FOR SEXTENNIAL FINDING OF REASONABLE DILIGENCE, in DOUGLAS, ARAPAHOE AND JEFFERSON COUNTIES, COLORADO. 2. Summary of Application: Englewood is a municipal corporation of the State of Colorado. Englewood owns and operates municipal water and sewer utility systems for the benefit of its citizens, and for the provision of water and sewer service contracts. This application seeks a finding of reasonable diligence for Englewood’s conditional water right for Union Avenue Intake originally decreed in Case No. 90CW221 on February 29, 2000. The 90CW221 decree also granted a conditional water storage right in Centennial Lake. Englewood acquired water rights in Pershin Spring and approval of a plan for augmentation to replace out-of-priority depletions from Centennial Lake in Case No. 14CW3011, Water Division No. 1, so Englewood will abandon its conditional right to store water in Centennial Lake in these proceedings.

3. Names of Structures: A. Union Avenue Intake. B. Gravel pit reservoir (a/k/a Centennial Lake). 4. Description of Conditional Water Rights: These rights were originally decreed on February 29, 2000, in Case No. 90CW221, District Court, Water Division No. 1. A subsequent finding of reasonable diligence was decreed in Case No. 06CW43 on August 7, 2012. A. Union Avenue Intake. 1) Location: Union Avenue Intake is located on the right (East) bank of the South Platte River, in Section 9, Township 5 South, Range 68 West, of the 6th P.M., at approximately 2300' from the North section line of said Section and 300' from the West section line of said Section (from 1965 USGS 7 1/2' quadrangle sheet, photo-revised in 1980). 2) Source: The South Platte River and its tributaries. 3) Appropriation Date: December 17, 1990. 4) Amount: 32.05 cfs, CONDITIONAL; 5.95 cfs, ABSOLUTE. 5) Use: Diversion at the Union Avenue Intake by direct flow for municipal, domestic, industrial, commercial, irrigation (including watering of parks, lawns, and gardens), stock watering, recreational, fish and wildlife propagation and maintenance, manufacturing, fire protection, sewage treatment, and street sprinkling within Englewood's present and future service area. In addition to the foregoing uses, such water may be used for exchange and augmentation purposes. 6) Place of Use: The service area of Englewood as it presently exists and as it may exist in the future, including any lands to which Englewood provides water for municipal purposes under an existing or future contract of supply. B. Gravel pit reservoir (a/k/a Centennial Lake). 1) Location: The gravel pit reservoir is located in Section 8, Township 5 South, Range 68 West, of the 6th P.M. The approximate center of Centennial Lake is located 1,900 feet south of the north section line and 1,300 feet west of the east section line of said Section 8. 2) Source: The South Platte River and its tributaries. 3) Appropriation Date: December 17, 1990.

4) Amount: 680 acre-feet, CONDITIONAL. 5) Use: As stated above, Englewood acquired a water rights in Pershin Spring and the water court approved a plan for augmentation for Centennial Lake in Case No. 14CW3011, Water Division No. 1, so Englewood will abandon its conditional storage right in Centennial Lake in these proceedings. 5. Diligence Activities: Pursuant to the decree issued in 90CW221, the conditional Union Avenue Intake right is part of Englewood's overall water system, and diligence on any part of that system will be considered diligence as to the conditional water right. The existence of this water right is necessary in order to allow Englewood to plan for growth and to maintain flexibility and reliability in its water supply system. During the diligence period of August 2012 to August 2018, in continuing the development of the subject water right, Englewood has undertaken significant efforts on various components of its unified water system. Activities that have been performed toward completion of the appropriation and application of the subject water right to beneficial use are described below. This list is not intended to be exclusive. 1) Englewood expended over $400,000.00 on various water diversion, measurement, and distribution system improvements.

These include improvements to various ditches, wells, pumps, pipes, flumes, and gulches, including expenditures of more than $100,000.00 to improve the City Ditch by replacing the pipe inlet and screen on City Ditch at two locations, installing a Mariposa headgate on the City Ditch, and designing and installing a release point at Big Dry Creek from City Ditch. 2) Englewood expended over $200,000.00 in connection with improvements to McLellan Reservoir and associated facilities including the toe drain, pump station, feed line and distribution main. 3) Englewood expended $10,619.35 in 2014 on an asset management program license. 4) Englewood expended $1,214,830.00 on a roof rehabilitation project for its 3 million gallon overhead storage tanks and maintenance for the tanks, as well as maintenance on the Solar Bee mixing units for the Belisle Reservoir. 5) Englewood expended $43,996.00 to remove trees that interfered with the Englewood water system. 6) Englewood expended $488,569.00 replacing the roof on the Allen Water Treatment Plant. 7) Englewood expended $4,000.00 repairing the Little Dry Creek siphon. 8) Englewood expen-

Englewood filed diligence applications on other conditional decrees which are part of its integrated system.

10) Englewood has directed its technical water right consultants to do a water right master supply plan that includes the Union Avenue Intake water right, and work on the water right master supply plan began in the winter and spring of 2018. WHEREFORE, Englewood respectfully requests the Court to enter findings and a decree confirming that: 1) Englewood has exercised diligence toward completion of the appropriation for the decreed uses and continuing the subject conditional water right in full force and effect for another six-year diligence period for 32.05 cfs of the Union Avenue Intake water right; and 2) Englewood has abandoned the 680 acre-foot, conditional water storage right in Centennial Lake originally decreed in Case No. 90CW221.
