There’s not really a social expectation to go to church at this point, which is good and bad — it means the people who come really want to be here. We’re not about guilt and shame, we’re just excited to see you.

But overall, there’s a decline in Protestant ministry across the board.

There’s not an easy answer, and we do a lot of praying about it.

Pastor serves in Littleton at time of historic upheaval True Lutheran I’m originally from Wisconsin, and I’m from a Scandinavian background. I’m a true Midwestern Lutheran.

I actually have a business degree, but in college I was a camp counselor at Rainbow Trail in southwest Colorado, and when I graduated I had two job offers to become a church youth director, so that’s where life took me.

My husband is also a pastor, and when I was 40 and he was 50, we went back to school and each got a master’s in divinity. We became pastors in rural Kansas, and that’s mostly where we raised our kids.

Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Littleton is my “first call” — the first place I’ve served as an ordained person.

Inspire and empower It’s God’s work, and it’s affirmed by the people. Even when there are hard days, there’s a bigger force at work. I put a lot of stake in the work of the Holy Spirit to inspire and empower people, because otherwise it’d be impossible and discouraging.

DA’s office boasts outstanding victim advocate 18th Judicial District’s Colleen Vogel honored by Colorado Organization for Victim Assistance STAFF REPORT

A victim advocate with the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office has been named Outstanding Victim Advocate in the Public Sector by the Colorado Organization for Victim Assistance.

Colleen Vogel joined the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office in 2007, working in the Special Victims Unit.

Vogel’s colleagues nominated her for the award, which honors an individual in a government agency who has made a significant impact on the lives of victims of crime.

“The unit in our office that handles the most horrible crimes against children sees prosecutors and investigators rotate in and out, because it is so demanding and emotionally taxing.

There is one constant: Colleen Vogel.

For 12 years, she has set the standard for commitment to assisting the most vulnerable and abused in our community,” District Attorney George Brauchler said in a news release. “She never complains. She is seemingly unaffected by the passage of time or the volume of her caseload. Colleen Vogel is the gold standard, and our community and our office are better for having her here.”

Vogel’s colleagues described her as a “silent warrior for victims” and “a rock on the SVU team.”

According to the release, Vogel goes the extra mile for victims and provides the best service to them throughout a difficult court process. She supports others on the prosecution team, learning the facts of the cases she is assigned and fostering relationships with other agencies.

“I am honored beyond words to be nominated for this award, let alone receive it,” Vogel said in the release.

“I have been privileged to work with so many talented and devoted colleagues over the years. Any success I have is due in large part to their support, and to the strength I take from the courage of our amazing victims.”

‘Biogas’ project up and running at wastewater plant $8 million system will capture emissions, sell gas to Xcel Energy

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Driving along Platte River Road at night, it was hard to miss the eerie flame rising from South Platte Water Renewal Partners, the wastewater treatment plant just north of Dartmouth Avenue.

The flame, which burned off waste gases produced by sewage treatment processes, was extinguished on Oct. 31, as the mayors of Englewood and Littleton cut the ribbon on the plant’s biogas capture system.

From now on, the waste gases produced by the plant — containing atmospheric pollutants like carbon dioxide and sulfides — will be cleaned, and the methane injected into an Xcel Energy pipeline, where it will be used to heat homes and produce power.

The system, which injects the gas into a utility pipeline, is the first of its kind in Colorado, said plant director Pieter Van Ry at a ribbon cutting ceremony.

“This is a huge leap not just for our facility, but for our industry as a whole,” Van Ry said.

The biogas project is the culmination of more than two years of planning and work by plant staff, Van Ry said, as well as by Englewood and Littleton, which jointly own the plant.

Each city paid half of the project’s $8 million price tag, though Littleton finance director Tiffany Hooten said the final tally may come in below that, once all the invoices are in.

The plant serves 300,000 customers across a wide swath of the south metro area, Van Ry said. The biogas project will reduce the plant’s annual carbon dioxide output by 5,000 metric tons a year, according to projections.

Englewood Mayor Linda Olson, left, and Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman cut the ribbon on the biogas facility at South Platte Water Renewal Partners, the south metro area’s wastewater treatment plant owned by Littleton and Englewood. The system will capture waste gases to sell as fuel to Xcel Energy.

DAVID GILBERT Seeing the project come to fruition was a thrill for Jan Brown of the Citizens Alliance for a Sustainable Englewood, or CASE, a grassroots group that championed the biogas project.

“This is fabulous,” Brown said.

“We’d like to leave a cleaner planet for future generations, and burning methane wasn’t doing anybody any good.”

The project will generate revenue by selling the gas to Xcel under the auspices of the federal Renewable Fuel Standard, according to previous reporting by Colorado Community Media. The program, begun under the administration of President George W. Bush, calls for energy producers to buy renewable fuel sources.

Biogas is sold in units called RINs, for “renewable identification numbers.”

Initial reports presented by Carollo Engineers, which built the system, to the cities in 2017 used a RIN price of $2.50 per unit to predict a payback

time of four years. RINs are currently trading at 90 cents, said Sarah Johnson, the director of renewable natural gas projects for Blue Source LLC, which is serving as the plant’s broker to sell RINs. Johnson said RIN prices are under a dollar amid market oversupply and skepticism, as the federal Environmental Protection Agency has gotten “more lenient” in granting waivers to smaller refineries and energy producers, allowing exemptions from the terms of the Renewable Fuel Standard.

Still, Johnson said, market analysts predict a RIN price of $2.20 to $2.25 per unit in 2020. The Renewable Fuel Standard is currently slated to run through 2022, at which time it will come up for renewal.

Current projections show the project paying itself off in five to seven years, said Blair Corning, the plant’s deputy director of environmental programs.

Even if RIN prices stay low, or even if the federal government does away with the program, the plant will still be able to sell the gas, Van Ry said.

Current predictions anticipate the system pulling in $1.25 million in net revenue in 2020, he said.

Beyond the money, Van Ry said, the system is a boon to the environment. The plant already captures and processes water and solids, he said, and can now capture the final product it was simply wasting.

“The revenue is a bonus,” Van Ry said. “The real thing this does is reclaim a resource. Instead of flaring this gas into the atmosphere, which contributes to Denver’s air pollution, we’re capturing it and putting it to use.”

The project is also a positive step for Englewood’s Energy Action Plan, which calls for the city government to reduce its energy use by 1% per year until 2030, said Englewood Mayor Linda Olson.

“It’s just a win-win,” Olson said.

Biogas is a move in the right direction for the natural gas industry as a whole, said Luke Litteken, Xcel Energy’s vice president of gas operations.

“We’ve got a lot of interest in getting greener,” Litteken said, adding that the plant’s biogas project is the first in the entire Xcel system, which covers more than 2 million people in seven states. “Renewable natural gas is right in front of us …. Someday we’ll look back and point to this project as (Xcel’s) first.”

Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman was eager to bid farewell to the flame.

“Growing up in Denver, you’d see these methane flares, and you never understood what they were,” Brinkman said at the ribbon-cutting ceremony. “It was kind of cool. ‘Look at that fire in the sky.’ But you get older and you realize it’s not so cool. It’s be an absolute honor and pleasure to cut that ribbon and watch that flame go out.”

Election security overseen by bipartisan teams Arapahoe County official gives insight into ballot-processing procedures

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Not many elements of American politics are bipartisan anymore, but vote counting in Arapahoe County is.

Two-person teams, consisting of one Republican and one Democrat, are tasked with collecting and opening ballots, said Marissa Chamberlain, Arapahoe County’s deputy director of elections.

Bipartisan teams are also responsible for making judgment calls on ballots when a voter fills out a ballot incorrectly.

Ahead of the Nov. 5 election, Chamberlain explained the vote-counting process in a tour of the county election facility, near Federal Boulevard and Belleview Avenue in Littleton. Arapahoe County Clerk and Recorder Joan Lopez was scheduled to lead the Oct. 29 tour, but had to attend a rescheduled meeting, Chamberlain said.

Ballot security is a top priority, Chamberlain said.

“Every ballot box is sealed, with a signed chain of custody,” Chamberlain said. “I’ve never seen a seal that didn’t match up.”

While the majority of Arapahoe County’s ballots come in through 24-hour drop boxes, those that are sent through the mail will be picked up by teams who travel to the U.S. Postal Service’s sorting facility in Commerce City, Chamberlain said.

Once ballots arrive, they undergo machine scanning that compares the signatures on the envelope to a county database culled from previous ballots and public records.

“We have the machine’s tolerance set pretty high,” Chamberlain said. “It typically only accepts about half of the signatures it encounters.”

The rest are checked by hand, Chamberlain said. Voters whose signatures can’t be verified will get a letter and email asking them to “cure” their ballot, requiring them to verify their identity with a copy of a photo ID. Voters have up to eight days after the election to fix their ballots.

Ballots are then opened by bipartisan teams and go on to computer scanners on a secure network that has no connection to the internet, Chamberlain said. Votes are accumulated on a server in a secure room with limited access and no connection to the outside world.

Ballots where the voter’s

intent isn’t immediately clear, such as when someone crossed out one vote and wrote in another, or ballots with unclear marks, are “adjudicated” by bipartisan teams with oversight from supervisors, Chamberlain said.

Voters who are still wary about the security or legiti-

The machine can process up to 300 ballots a minute, though about half will be verified by hand. macy of vote counting can sign up to be “poll watchers,” Chamberlain said, which allows them to monitor activity at any of the county’s six voting centers, as well as inside the election facility. Those interested should contact political parties to sign up, she said.

The state’s voter registra-

tion database makes it extremely difficult for someone to vote twice, Chamberlain said.

“There are an incredible number of checks and balances in Colorado elections,” Chamberlain said. “Citizens can vote with confidence, and they can come watch us work, too.”

Retiring mail carrier delivered letters and friendship Ken Cruzan receives warm tribute after 18 years on Littleton route

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Ken Cruzan normally walks 15 miles a day. But on Oct. 27, he couldn’t go more than 5 feet without being stopped.

Cruzan, 66, will soon retire after 40 years as a mail carrier for the United States Postal Service, with the last 18 years on the same route in Littleton.

In the basement of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, in the heart of Cruzan’s mail route, dozens of his longtime customers wouldn’t let him move far without stopping him for hugs, handshakes and warm wishes.

“It’s just one of the best days I’ve ever had,” Cruzan said. “I’m just so humbled. This community has just gone overboard for me.”

The folks on Cruzan’s route feel the same about him.

“He’s everything you could ask from a mailman,” said Audrey Wenger, whose mail has passed through Cruzan’s hands for years.

“He’s reliable, he’s great with the neighborhood dogs, and he really cares about us,” Wenger said, remembering that Cruzan always made sure

Ken Cruzan, who will retire next spring after 40 years as a mail carrier, plays a farewell song with his bluegrass band, the Tuesday Night Boys, at a celebration in his honor at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Littleton on Oct. 27. Cruzan, 66, said he looks forward to focusing on music and art.

DAVID GILBERT to check on her after her husband died several years ago.

“And we’re only now discovering how talented he really is,” Wenger said.

Staff at Holy Trinity only recently discovered that Cruzan is also the

mandolin player for bluegrass band The Tuesday Night Boys. The band played at Cruzan’s retirement celebration, part of the church’s annual Oktoberfest gathering.

“He’s a fixture of our daily lives, so it’s wonderful to get to celebrate

him like this,” sand Sonja Sandquist, the church’s youth and family pastor.

“He’s woven into the fabric of our world, and he’ll be very missed.”

Cruzan’s still got a few months on the job — his last day will come next spring — but he’s ready to hang up the mailbag. He said he’s eager to focus on music and painting.

Decades carrying mail have given him some insights on life, Cruzan said.

“You learn when someone’s grouchy, don’t respond with your own hostility,” Cruzan said. “Ask how they’re doing. Leave a bit of cheer.”

Mail carrying can be contemplative work.

“You have a lot of time to yourself — a lot of time to reflect on your life, or think about your family,” said Cruzan, a father of two.

Cruzan said as the years have gone by, he’s seen families experience birth and loss, and reached out to lonely people.

“Some people, I’m the only person they’ll see all day,” Cruzan said.

“Some folks will wait for me, just to have someone to say hello to.”

The demands on mail carriers keep increasing, Cruzan said, making it harder to take the time to connect with residents.

In the church basement, many of Cruzan’s well-wishers had one question for him: “See you Monday?”

“See you Monday,” Cruzan said.

by Kathy Muni According to a recent survey of seniors, 80% were concerned about their ability to age in place, due to the cost. Sixty percent have less than $10,000 in savings (including investments and retirement plans), and debt among seniors has never been higher. Nearly half of homeowners ages 65–79 carry a mortgage.

In addition, seniors are living longer than previous generations.

All this adds up to a tough reality: funding longevity is hard.

However, there is a smart way to afford retirement, and live without a monthly mortgage payment: a home equity conversion mortgage, or HECM. To qualify for a government-insured HECM (reverse mortgage), at least one borrower must be 62 or older, the home must be your primary residence, and you should have 40–60% equity. A HECM eliminates your monthly mortgage payment, which can be a real burden if you’re on a fixed income. HECM

IN THEIR BUSINESS Centennial teen honored Yard Boyz, a business created by 18-year-old Jack Fleming, of Centennial, won the 16-21 age category of the 2019 Spotlight on YouthBiz Stars business competition and gala benefitting Young Americans Center for Financial Education.

Many teens mow lawns to earn money in the summer, but Fleming has re-defined what it means to be the neighborhood lawn-kid through his business, Yard Boyz, which he started in 2015.

According to a news release, Fleming’s customer service, marketing efforts and determination helped him grow his businesses from mowing a few lawns a week to providing lawn and basic landscaping to more than 70 regular clients last summer. He even employs two friends to help.

In addition to earning a cash prize, Fleming will get to spend a year with a mentor, a leader from the Denver business community committed to emcouraging the next generation of business owners in Colorado.

Spotlight on YouthBiz Stars is a business competition and awards gala that benefits the programs of Young Americans Center for Financial Education, a nonprofit that reaches nearly 70,000 youth every year through hands-on programs and real-life experiences to develop financial literacy in youth. The annual event, presented by CoBank, was Oct. 3 at the Seawell Grand

Credit union opens in Highlands Ranch Credit Union of Colorado has opened its 16th office in Colorado.

At 6654 Timberline Road in Highlands Ranch, the office is designed with an open layout to provide a more integrated approach to helping members. The office also includes expanded conveniences of a drive-up teller, safe deposit boxes, coin counter and a surcharge-free drive-up ATM. The new office responds to the wishes of its growing membership base in the Highlands Ranch community, Doug Schneider, senior vice president, said in a news release.

“Many of our members based in Highlands Ranch enjoy digital banking, doing most of their banking online,” Schneider said in the release. “That includes having access to more than 62,000 surchargefree ATMs, with 1,700 right here in Colorado. But often there is no substitute for banking face-to-face to build strong, trustworthy relationships. This new branch meets that need.”

Man sentenced to 96 years after string of crimes Eric Weston captured in 2017 following bus trip to California

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A fugitive who committed a brazen multi-state crime spree, with multiple victims in the Denver area in 2017, was sentenced to 96 years in prison on Oct. 4.

Eric Weston, 37, pleaded guilty to two counts each of aggravated robbery, attempted aggravated robbery and felony menacing, according to a news release from the 18th Judicial District, which includes Arapahoe County. In exchange for the guilty pleas, prosecu- Weston tors dropped 23 other charges.

Weston’s series of crimes in Colorado began on June 23, 2017, while he was on parole for a drug charge in Georgia and wanted in a robbery in Florida.

Weston posted an online ad purporting to offer a car for sale, and when two sisters responded, he got in their car in

Littleton to go see the vehicle, according to the news release. The sisters became uncomfortable and told Weston they were no longer interested.

Weston pulled a gun on the women, who ran from the car, as did Weston, who then held another man at gunpoint before fleeing on foot, the release states.

Weston then carjacked a woman at gunpoint, and drove off in her car, according to the release. The stolen car was spotted by Englewood police, and Weston evaded pursuing officers in a high-speed chase before abandoning the car.

Weston then broke into a home and held the homeowner at gunpoint, the release says, before taking his cell phone and forcing the man to drive him to Albuquerque — a nearly 450mile drive.

Police later learned that Weston boarded a bus and traveled to San Bernardino, California, where he was apprehended by authorities.

“Seven different law enforcement agencies across Georgia, Florida, Colorado, and California are to be commended for their collaboration to investigate, track and apprehend Weston,” said Deputy District Attorney Michael Mauro, who prosecuted the case with Senior District Attorney Garrik Storgaard.

Tri-County Health Department declares youth vaping a crisis Health department board lays out steps to combat epidemic

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As the state health department continues investigating vaping-related illnesses and doubles down on preventing tobacco use among youths, local health agencies are also taking action.

That includes the Tri-County Health Department, which serves roughly 1.5 million people in Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties.

Tri-County’s board on Oct. 15 adopted a resolution declaring youth vaping a crisis and laid out measures community members can take to combat the issue.

“Tri-County Health Department works to reduce the impact of tobacco by partnering with communities to provide tobacco prevention and cessation resources,” Executive Director John Douglas said in a statement. “We are expanding those evidence-based successes to fight our epidemic of youth vaping, including the recently recognized vaping associated acute lung disease.”

Douglas noted 27% of Colorado youths report vaping.

Alison Reidmohr, the Tobacco Com-

munications Strategist with the state health department, said that is more than twice the national average and the highest in the nation.

“That level of nicotine exposure for young people who are in adolescence, whose brains are still in development, is really a cause for concern,” she said.

The department is frequently asked why Colorado’s youth vaping rates are so high, Reidmohr said. One theory is that tobacco companies have historically used Colorado as a test market when pitching products.

“It’s possible that vaping products have been marketed more heavily and longer in Colorado than other states,” she said.

She added that Colorado is one of “only a handful of states” that don’t license tobacco retailers, and that social norms may contribute to the epidemic. Vaping indoors wasn’t banned in Colorado until July, when an update to the Colorado Clean Indoor Air Act went into effect.

Reidmohr said her department supports local agencies in addressing youth vaping through technical support in drafting polices and with grant dollars.

The Tri-County Health Department in its resolution detailed how community members can curb youth vaping: • School districts and schools should enforce tobacco-free policies. They should lean on restorative justice and

SHUTTERSTOCK IMAGE

alternatives to suspension, in order to keep students in school. Focus health education on life skills and decision making.

• Local governments should consider strong regulations on retailers.

That could include licensing tobacco retailers, raising the minimum legal sales age and banning the sale of flavored tobacco or nicotine products.

Reidmohr said 19 Colorado communities have raised the legal sales age from 18 to 21, and 26 communities have passed local retail licensing regulations.

Parents should educate themselves and talk to their children openly about vaping. Youths can speak to their peers about coping with stress in healthy ways.

While Reidmohr’s department works on preventions, other state officials are investigating vaping-related illnesses.

The public is urged against using any type of vaping product at this time, said Elyse Contreras, the state health department’s lead epidemiologist investigating Colorado’s cases in the outbreak.

There have been 11 reported cases of vaping-related illnesses in Colorado. Nine of those placed people in the hospital. There are more than 600 cases nationally. Symptoms include shortness of breath, trouble breathing, chest pain, coughing, fatigue and fever.

Federal agencies are investigating the illness’ cause or causes, which remain unknown.

The state health department works with local communities to gather data on the outbreak, Contreras said.

They urged health agencies and hospitals to look out for the illness and report any cases to the state department.

Contreras stressed anyone displaying symptoms should see their doctor.

Debunking myths about Financial Advisors I hate telling people what I do for a living. I know, that’s a strange statement. It seems putting a spin on tired titles is the thing to do these days to reinvent the wheel. We have Nelisha industry disrupters, Firestone online influencer’s, couples consciously uncoupling… I have failed to find a sexy way to say what it is I do. To be blunt- I am a Financial Planner and Advisor. I’m sure you already have a preconceived idea of what that means, which is why I hate telling people my profession. But your idea about what I do… it’s probably wrong.

This was reinforced for me when I was asked to speak to a business owner advisory board. After asking attendees what they wanted to hear, I was a bit surprised by the response.

They wanted to discuss the follow-

ing issues: • Brokers who want commissions vs looking out for their clients’ best interest • The lack of attention or analysis of individual goals • Not enough touch points for review throughout the year • Confusing shop talk and industry jargon • Lack of trust That led me to a question of my own: who are you all working with?

These questions seem to stem from a working relationship straight out of the Wolf of Wall Street movie. Unfortunately, for too many investors this is their experience.

In 2015 my industry was put on notice that the landscape was changing by way of the Fiduciary Rule proposed by the Obama administration. The rule was born out of the simple principal: You want to give financial advice, you’ve got to

put your client’s interests first. Makes sense, right? Seems like a no-brainer? But through many appeals, hearings, and delays, the fiduciary rule has yet to become law.

Even though not required, we choose to practice a fiduciary standard in our office which means we are morally obligated to put our clients’ best interest first. The investment advice you receive must be made using accurate and complete information.

We must disclose any conflicts of interest and use a “best execution” standard when trading your money.

This high standard also requires meeting with our clients at least once per year to review their portfolio and plan.

It is a high standard, but essential for anyone handling your money. If

your advisor is acting in a fiduciary capacity none of the concerns listed above should be on your mind. If they are- call me and we’ll talk.

Colorado launches digital ID in state’s mobile app Residents can use electronic version of driver’s license or state ID as legal form of personal identification STAFF REPORT

Coloradans can now create an electronic version of their driver’s license or state identification card that can be displayed on smartphones for proof of identification, age and address in Colorado.

The launch of the Colorado Digital ID in the myColorado mobile app, the state’s official mobile app, was announced Oct. 30 by Gov. Jared Polis, according to a news release. Colorado Digital ID is a secure, unique visual representation of what has traditionally been the legally accepted official physical format of a person’s identification.

“As technology evolves, I’m excited to make sure that government keeps up with the times. We are rapidly moving to support the use of mobile digital identity solutions that allow any of us to verify our identity and conduct business without the need to carry a plastic identification card,”

Polis said in the release.

“Colorado continues to be a national leader when it comes to technology.”

Polis also signed an executive order stating that Colorado Digital ID shall be authorized, and may be accepted, as a legal form of personal identification for use in Colorado, the release said. The Colorado business community is highly encouraged to begin accepting the Digital ID, and state agencies are advised to accept it beginning Dec. 1.

Colorado law enforcement agencies may continue to require physical forms of identification by members of the public in all law enforcement and public safety situations, so Coloradans should continue to take their physical ID wherever they go. myColorado is a collaborative project between the governor’s office, the Office of Information Technology, the Department of Revenue, the Division of Motor Vehicles

The new myColorado mobile app, announced Oct. 30, will let residents renew their driver’s licenses, receive notifications about important state news, securely store personal and payment information, and search for online state services in one place.

Storage of vehicle registration and insurance cards in the myColorado Wallet is coming soon, the release said.

Molson Coors closing Denver office, cutting 500 jobs Company to invest in modernizing Golden brewery

BY DEE-ANN DURBIN ASSOCIATED PRESS

Molson Coors Brewing Co. is laying off 500 workers worldwide and restructuring its operations as it faces declining beer sales.

The company expects to save $150 million by closing offices in Denver and elsewhere and simplifying its structure. Its four business units — U.S., Canada, Europe and International —will be consolidated into North America and Europe, with other regions reporting to those two.

Chicago will be its North American headquarters. Support functions like finance and human resources that are scattered around the U.S. will now be based in Milwaukee.

Molson Coors says it will save approximately $150 million with the new structure. It will use those savings to improve its digital marketing capabilities and introduce new products more quickly, like the canned wine and hard coffee it unveiled this year. Molson Coors says it has been working on reducing the time it takes to bring new products to market from 18 months to as little as four months in the U.S. Molson Coors is also continuing its previously announced plan to modernize its breweries and make them more flexible to meet

consumer demand. The company’s brewery in Golden is the largest in the U.S., brewing up to 10 million barrels of beer each year.

“Our business is at an inflection point,’’ Molson Coors President and CEO Gavin Hattersley said in a statement. “We can continue down the path we’ve been on for several years now, or we can make the significant and difficult changes necessary to get back on the right track.’’

Hattersley became president and CEO recently when CEO Mark Hunter retired.

Molson Coors is dropping “Brewing’’ from its name to emphasize that it makes more than beer. It will become Molson Coors Beverage Co. in January.

Beer sales were up 5% in Asia and Western Europe in 2018 and rose 6% in Eastern Europe, according to Euromonitor. But they were flat in the U.S. as canned cocktails, hard seltzers and craft beers stole share from big brewers.

The company’s beer brands include Miller, Molson, Coors, Blue Moon, Pilsner Urquell and Foster’s. It also makes Henry’s Hard Soda.

Overall Molson Coors reported a thirdquarter loss of $402.8 million on Oct. 30. On a per-share basis, the company lost $1.86. Earnings, adjusted for asset impairment costs and non-recurring costs, were $1.48 per share.

That exceeded Wall Street’s expectations, according to Zacks Investment Research. But the company’s adjusted revenue of $2.84 billion which fell short of analysts’ forecasts.

Molson Coors’ sales fell 3% to $8.1 billion in the first nine months of the year.

More than 170 Arapahoe Community College students, faculty and staff helped distribute coats and winter accessories at Project Homeless Connect at the Colorado Convention Center.

The volunteers also visited with Project Homeless Connect guests on a frigid Oct. 10 in downtown Denver.

Students helped attendees

navigate a wide array of project resources, including professional portraits by ACC photography students.

Colorado’s Finest High School of Choice, part of ACC’s cosmetology program, brought several dozen students to provide haircuts, skin cleansing and nail care.

The outreach initiative was organized and coordinated by ACC’s Service Learning Center.

Okay, okay, there’s no two ways about it

had writer’s block. I had no original ideas. I knew if the block lingered, I would revert, and harangue about the injustices being, like, done, like, to, like, the English language.

QUIET So I went to Jennifer and said, “Help DESPERATION me, please. Give me an idea, a topic, a subject, a theme,” and you know what she said?

She said, “Okay.”

I looked at those luminous periwinkles of hers and said, “Thank you, thank Craig Marshall you.”

If you have ever Smith wondered why we say “okay” — or “OK,” per The Associated Press Stylebook— you have

Jennifer to thank.

This one little word — or two letters — is said over and over, all day and all night, to express “assent, agreement, or acceptance.”

Why not “AC” instead, because most of us language historian types agree that “OK” stands for “all correct.”

Well, because language, she is a funny girl.

Have you ever wondered where “shampoo,” “tattoo,” and “barbecue” came from? I’ll save those for my next bout of writer’s block. Okay?

Some think “OK” comes from oblique thinking, and it’s a twist around of “oll korrect,” as an obvious witticism that wasn’t “all correct.”

And that it can be traced to the 19th century.

Right now, right this minute, there are abbreviations and acronyms that

might stay with us just as OK has.

For examples; “LOL” and “OMG,” neither of which you will see here, unless they are used facetiously.

That word “facetious” won me a prize.

Long before Turner Classic Movies, there was a Los Angeles television station that showed movies all day, and, unlike Turner, it was not commercial-free.

However, like Turner, there was a host, and he sometimes quizzed viewers.

One day, he asked for words in the English language that have all five vowels in order.

It turns out there are twenty-seven, but most of them (“travertinous”) rarely are used.

I called in “facetious” and won a six-pack of furniture polish.

Did I have furniture? When I was a

college student in the 1960s and the 1970s, my furniture was sometimes the floor.

I had cinder blocks and one by sixes for bookshelves. You don’t polish one by sixes.

But I had won, and that’s all that mattered. The host mentioned my name on the air.

“Greg Smith,” he said.

But I didn’t mind. I was okay with it.

Whenever I feel an “OK” coming on, I write “okay” instead.

For one very good reason: “OK” is the accepted abbreviation for “Oklahoma.” And if you have seen the play or the film or simply heard the soundtrack of the Rodgers and Hammerstein project, you know what I mean.

same thing as me right now, that when we are hurt or disappointed, we immediately go to our “f ” words, forgiveness and freedom. Or phrased slightly differently, the freedom that comes with forgiveness.

Oh, that’s not what you were thinking? That’s OK too. There is always a first time for everything. Kind of like the first time I was asked to try cauliflower. I didn’t really care for it — as a matter of fact it was far from fantastic or fabulous, I thought it tasted foul. But then one day a chef had prepared it differently, presented it on the plate in a fresh and favorable way, and when I tasted it, I experienced a festive and flavorful meal that was truly phenomenal. Okay, so I cheated with the “ph” but you get the point right?

I often write about how important our word choices are and how they impact our attitude and our behaviors.

They influence how others perceive us and if we are not careful, our words can damage our reputation and our relationships. Our words can cause feelings of fear, failure, and fragility.

And on the other hand, our words can facilitate feelings that let others know that they are favored, we are their family, their friend, and their biggest fan. They are encouraged to fervently follow and focus on their fantastic dreams.

For folks who follow this column, my favorite “f ” word will come as no surprise, forgiveness. Unconditional forgiveness. Unconditional love and forgiveness. And yes, the other “f ” words that come to mind when thinking about forgiveness are the faith to trust in the power of forgiveness, remembering that our family comes first, so do not withhold forgiveness; eternity is a forever thing and we should forgive as we have been forgiven; to be fearless and courageous enough to offer forgiveness; and to experience and enjoy the freedom that comes with unconditional forgiveness. .I encourage you to try that last one for sure, I believe you might like it.

finish, the next time you feel like there is an appropriate moment where you feel compelled to use an “f ” word, forget in that fleeting instant the word you might have used and fill your heart and mind with fun, fantastic, and fulfilling words and let those flow instead.

Be in the know to go Travel on I-70 west of the Denver metro area is the main focus for the new traction law because of the roadway’s dangerous driving conditions in winter weather. Here are numbers collected from October through December last year on I-70.

Number of times CDOT activated the traction law

Crashes Two plows make their way on C-470 in Highlands Ranch at about 1 p.m. during the Oct. 29 snowstorm. A new law now makes it illegal to pass working snowplows.

CHRISTY STEADMAN

Motorists should be aware of laws regarding traction, plows

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

W

hile watching the snowfall can be relaxing and playing in it can be a lot of fun, driving in Colorado’s snowstorms can be less than desirable.

“We know it’s going to happen,” said Andrew Hogle, a public information officer with the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) and the organization’s Winter Wise campaign.

“We’re going to get a snow event.”

There are two new laws Colorado drivers should be aware of when driving in snowy weather. One is the snowplow law, which affects all motorists statewide. It requires that drivers not pass working snowplows. The second is the passenger vehicle traction law, which primarily affects I-70 drivers — including ski resort destinations — west of the metro area.

Colorado’s traction law If winter weather driving conditions are bad enough, CDOT can implement an active traction law on any state highway. When active, there will be highway signage, or motorists can receive an alert by signing up through CDOT’s www.COtrip.org website.

When the traction law is active, it requires that all vehicles on state highways fit one of these categories: four-wheel/all-wheel drive; equipped with a traction device such as chains; or have snow tires or tires with mud and snow designation.

In addition, all tire tread must be at least 3/16 of an inch in depth.

“The deeper the tread, the better the

snow traction,” said John Tracey, owner of South Park Tire and Automotive Center in Littleton.

But that doesn’t mean everyone needs to replace their current snow tires to be able to get around this winter, Tracey said.

“Many tires are being thrown away before their lifespan,” Tracey added.

To make sure your tires aren’t being discarded before they’re worn, have them checked first to ensure they’re adequate for winter weather, Tracey said. Tires have a small notch, known as a wear bar, built in for selfchecking, Tracey said. But any tire shop can also measure the tread for those who are unfamiliar with doing it themselves and/or want an expert’s accuracy.

Tracey also recommends that everyone consult with a tire dealer to discuss what type of tire would meet their specific winter driving needs.

For example, Tracey services a lot of seniors who are retired, he said. They may only need a front-wheel-drive car with all-season tires, Tracey said, because they might be able to avoid driving in the snow and ice altogether by staying home during a storm and waiting until after the streets are plowed.

But on the other hand, there are skiand-snowboard enthusiasts who need to travel safely in the mountains every weekend.

“It would be crazy” and unsafe for them not to have their vehicle properly equipped for inclement weather, he said.

Additional precautions on I-70 CDOT states that “the I-70 mountain corridor is one of Colorado’s most highly traveled corridors … and the corridor is also frequently subject to dangerous winter weather driving conditions.”

This is why I-70 is being targeted for

the newest rules of Colorado’s traction law, Hogle said.

Beginning on Sept. 1 this year and continuing to May 31, 2020, the traction law will be active for all motorists traveling I-70 from Morrison to Dotsero.

This means that in this 126-mile stretch all winter, every vehicle must be traction law compliant as explained above, or be carrying chains, cables or an alternative traction device at all times.

“A single car spinout can cause a holdup for a couple hundred vehicles,” Hogle said. “We see accidents that could’ve been avoided happen all the time.”

If not compliant with the law, fines can range from $130 for just not being compliant — inadequate tread on snow tires and no alternate traction device, for example — to $650 if the non-compliancy caused a traffic event such as a crash.

Colorado State Patrol will be enforcing the law, Hogle said. For the first year, it will be a secondary offense, Hogle said, such as if you were pulled over for speeding and the state trooper found that the vehicle was additionally not in compliance with the law.

‘Bow to the Plow’ No matter what street you’re driving on, all motorists need to understand the new snowplow law. Being dubbed “Bow to the Plow,” it means simply: Don’t pass a working snowplow.

“If they’re out there doing their work,” Hogle said, “it means there’s icy and snowy conditions. A little patience goes a long way.”

If snowplows are not working, they’re just like any other vehicle, Hogle said, and it’s OK to pass them on the left. Drivers can recognize a working snowplow because its blue lights will be flashing, and often there will be two of them in tandem, Hogle said.

Spinouts or slideoffs

Mechanical issues

Hours of lane-blockage time these traffic/vehicle accidents caused “It may be an inconvenience” driving behind a slow-moving snowplow, Hogle said, “but a crash is a much worse inconvenience.”

Be smart: Plan ahead Other than knowing the laws, it’s “important to plan ahead and make sure your vehicle is ready for winter,” Hogle said.

CDOT has vehicle and safety checklists available for winter driving preparedness on its website.

A few of these include making sure windshield wipers, headlights and brakes are working properly, as well as having a flashlight and extra batteries; an extra set of warm clothes such as a coat, hat and mittens; water and non-perishable food; a first-aid kit; and jumper cables in case of an emergency.

“Hopefully you’ll never need them, but it’s better to be prepared,” Hogle said. “It’s not just mountain driving that can be hazardous. Be smart about being on the road.”

Party at post office marks stamp of approval Colorado and national historic registers add building to their rosters

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Littleton’s 70-year-old post office at 5735 S. Prince St. will be celebrated from 1 to 3 p.m. on Nov. 9, and Historic Littleton Inc. is coordinating with the Littleton Post Office staff by inviting the community to join in.

Why? Because the 1939 red brick building has been nominated and accepted for the National Register of Historic Places and the Colorado State Register of Historic Properties — a special honor. Dedication and speakers are scheduled for 2 p.m., tours of the building will be available and refreshments are planned.

Readers may enjoy taking a harder look at this well-used public building that many of us visit frequently for stamps and to mail birthday and holiday gifts, family news and photos — and at times, returned shoes and other online orders that don’t fit properly.

It’s so familiar a part of the city of Littleton and our day-to-day lives that we perhaps haven’t paid attention to its details …

Historic Littleton Inc., which celebrates 30 years since the organization’s founding in honor of Littleton’s centennial year founding, recognized that the building is 70 years old and

showing some wear … HLI has worked for several years on gaining this recognition for the post office in the “Colonial Revival Style with a sidegable roof and a full basement,” as the application begins: “The Post Office Building, loading docks and parking areas cover half a city block. The building has an `L’-shaped addition added to the west and north sides. The 1962 addition matches the materials and Colonial Revival Style of the original 1939 portion,” wrote HLI President Gail Keeley, a professional historian, who speaks the language of the people at National Park Service who award such special designations when they deem a building worthy ...

The application continues: “The building is located in a prominent location in downtown Littleton on the northwest corner of West Alamo Street and South Prince Street.”

(Central to the charming downtown.)

“The Post Office faces east on South Prince, with the main entrance on the east side. The original portion has a side gable with copper standing seam roof with simple wood molded cornice with dentils, common bond brick walls and cast stone (cement) water table. A wood cupola is centered on the roofline above the main entrance.

All the wood windows are oversized twelve over twelve double-hung with simple cast stone sills and lintels.

The 1962 addition has a flat roof with parapet and simple cast stone cornice replicating the original cornice but without dentils. The interior lobby spaces of the original building and the

Littleton’s post office has been added to the National Register of Historic Places.

COURTESY OF LITTLETON MUSEUM

addition are finished using late 1950s modern materials. All the building materials and finishes are original to the two respective building periods, with the exception of a few minor changes in the post office box area.

A narrative follows, mentioning that prominent landmarks in the vicinity include the Littleton Main Street National Historic District, along with the locally listed Main Street Historic District. The other prominent historic building, which is located northwest in the same block, is the Littleton Town Hall, listed in the National Historic Register.

Historic Littleton Inc. board mem-

ber Rick Cronenberger, a retired National Park Service architect who worked with this national program, has led the effort to have the post office designated — involving frequent paperwork and connections to a variety of individuals who have a say in the matter. He has happily ordered the appropriate bronze plaque, which the local postmaster will mount.

Recognition is in order for this special building — readers are urged to stop by on Saturday, Nov. 9 in the afternoon.

A taste of Italy in Englewood Gallo Italian Supper Club and Bake opens its doors

BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Gaspare Licata grew up in a household where cooking and baking was the family business. The Sicily, Italy native left his country and family when he was only 13 to learn more about the family trade. He wanted to work with chocolate, learn how to bake wedding cakes and more — so he went out on an adventure.

Licata traveled throughout different parts of Europe learning the ins and outs of cooking and baking before eventually settling down in the United States in 1972. His adventure paid off and led to a career as a personal chef for the Los Angeles Rams, catering for the Kennedy family and ownership of restaurants and bakeries in areas including Italy, California, Pueblo and Aurora.

Now, Licata has his eyes set on South Broadway in downtown Englewood. With his daughter Vincenza Licata, and her boyfriend, Brian Meadows, the trio rebranded the Duffer Haus sports bar site into a full-blown Italian restaurant. The former Duffer Haus space is now Gallo Italian Supper Club and Bake, located at 3470 S. Broadway. The Italian restaurant opened at the beginning of October.

“I’ve opened up a few places that

At the front of the restaurant is a rooster statue. Gallo translates to rooster in Italian, and the animal is seen as a symbol of good luck in Italian culture, according to Meadows.

On the left side of the restaurant is a bakery and deli where customers can pick up Italian sweets, meat and more.

Toward the back of the restaurant,

behind the bar, is a dining room with authentic Italian decorations straight from Sicily.

“It’s family owned and family operated. All of the staff you see in here are friends and family of the owners,” said Meadows. “It’s very important for us to keep this as a mom and pop shop.

We like that family feel, that family vibe.”

As far as the menu goes, every dish is made from scratch. Meadows said

one of the most popular items on the restaurant’s menu is the arancini — risotto stuffed with Bolognese and mozzarella or green chili and cheddar.

Other offerings from the restaurant include pastas, pizzas, calzones, lasagna and desserts.

“If you go to Italy, you’re going to get overfed. They love to cook, and It’s very well shown within their meals,” SEE ITALIAN, P20

said Meadows. “Our portions, they’re family style. They’re big.”

The restaurant is planning on having a rebranding party sometime in the middle of November that will include live performances. It’s open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to midnight Fridays and Saturdays.

The 3400 block of South Broadway has seen some change this year with new businesses like Brewability, a brewery that took over the Brew on Broadway location, and Zomo Asian + American Eatery joining the area.

“We might just have to start calling these two blocks of Englewood ‘restaurant row.’ A place where you can enjoy cuisine from all over the world, sample the styles of various chefs and join our local celebrities at some of their favorite haunts,” said David Carroll, executive director for the Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce.

Gallo Italian Supper Club and Bake is part of the chamber, an organization that promotes its business members and other Englewood businesses.

CLUBS Food, fund drive aims to help veterans and their families FROM PAGE 24

Donations will be accepted through Veterans Day STAFF REPORT

A food and fund drive that aims to bring awareness to food insecurity among families of veterans and military members is collecting donations through Veterans Day. According to a news release, one in five households served by a local food bank has at least one member who has served or is now serving in the U.S. military. Food insecurity means lack of consistent access to enough food for an active, healthy life.

In the United States, food insecurity affects 1 in 8 people, according to the release. Food insecurity is a social determinant of health, which are conditions in people’s environments that can affect a wide range of health, functioning, and quality-of-life outcomes and risks.

Last year, Humana partnered with Feeding America — the

largest hunger-relief organization in the United States — to stage a series of events that drove food donations and raised awareness of food insecurity with a focus on helping veterans. Food Bank of the Rockies is part of Feeding America’s network of food banks and has teamed up the Humana to partner for this year’s drive.

Nonperishable food will be collected through Nov. 11 at locations in the Denver area. In addition, monetary donations also are being accepted. Every $10 donation helps Food Bank of the Rockies provide 40 meals. Donations can be made at http://fbr.convio.net/goto/humanafooddrive.

Food donations can be taken to: • Humana, 6300 S. Syracuse Way, Centennial • Morning Story Restaurant, 560 S. Holly St., Denver • Iora Primary Care locations in Arvada, 8175 N. Sheridan Blvd., Unit N; in Lakewood, 1692 Wadsworth Blvd.; and in south Jefferson County, 8246 W. Bowles Ave. For other locations, go to ioraprimarycare.com/practice-locator/

MOMO BROUGHT THE

GRIT Sometimes it’s not the physical pain. It’s the mental challenge of facing it again. I’ve been there. So I know how Momo felt when he twisted his foot at soccer practice and then slammed it again at baseball. At Children’s Colorado, he had an elite recovery team and a custom-built plan to bring him back stronger than before. But only one person could get him back on the field, giving his all. Momo. And that takes grit.

Thanks for inspiring me, Momo.

Connection Project launches digital resource event STAFF REPORT

The Connection Project has launched a digital resource event.

“Everyday Brave” supports the emergency responder community though a series of real-life stories shared through podcasts and a list of support resources for emergency responders, according to a news release.

The Connection Project’s founder and president, Jason C. Hopcus, hosts eight Everyday Brave podcasts, featuring emergency responders, leadership and way-makers from the Denver metro emergency responder community.

Additionally, emergency responders will be connected to a digital resource list tailor-made for life needs of emergency responders. The list offers support resources in key areas

that emergency responders might seek help: health, job, money and tribe.

The Connection Project’s mission is to create sustainable connections that meet people where they are. It takes a fresh approach by focusing on those who have turned their personal struggle around to champion for a community-driven cause.

“The present narrative about mental health is often perpetuated through sad, scary or traumatic events, which typically overlook individuals who are simply struggling with functional life issues. It’s time we offer a hand up and meet them where they are,” Hopcus said in the release.

For more information, contact Hopcus at ProjectJason@realpeoplereallife.org, 469-442-6426 or www.realpeoplereallife.org.

Warriors gain first-round win in OT Arapahoe came back from an early deficit against Rangeview

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

S

am Myers felt like he was involved in a rerun during Arapahoe’s first-round state soccer playoff game against Rangeview on Nov. 1 at Littleton Public Schools Stadium.

Myers, a junior midfielder for the Warriors, took a pass from Liam Andersen and scored the game-winning goal with 5:39 to play in the overtime session to give Arapahoe a 2-1 victory and move the defending 5A state champions into the second round, which was scheduled for Nov. 6.

“I scored a goal in a similar spot in the past, so I just went for it and trusted that my guy would go for the ball — and he did,” said Myers. “It all worked out. I got a good pass that was on the money. Without the pass it wouldn’t have happened.”

Arapahoe, the 12th seed in the 32team state playoff bracket, fell behind No. 21 Rangeview, which grabbed a 1-0 lead in the first half.

Aiden Kirk tied the game for Arapahoe in the 59th minute and the Warriors’ offensive pressure paid off with Myers’ overtime goal.

“When Liam got that ball, I said this is it,” Warriors coach Mark Hampshire said about the decisive goal. “I knew it was going to be it. This was the best game I’ve seen him (Andersen) play all season and for Sam to finish it with that kind of composure, I knew it was going to happen.”

Rangeview’s first-half goal got the attention of Arapahoe.

“Once that happened, the guys said, ‘OK, that’s it, we are not conceding anything else,’” Hampshire said.

Arapahoe senior Garrett Lyles (18) attempts to get to the ball despite the efforts of Rangeview’s Christian Valdez (10) during the first round boys soccer state playoff game on Nov. 1 at Littleton Public Schools Stadium. Arapahoe won 2-1 in overtime on a goal by Sam Myers.

JIM BENTON “This was the best team soccer we’ve seen with our offense in quite a while and that’s what you want in the playoffs. You want them to feel confident, even if some of the chances didn’t go our way, we were creating those chances and having the confidence to do some of that stuff. The finishes are going to happen.”

Myers expected a tough game in the first round.

“We realized that every game is going to be a fight,” said Myers. “There are no easy teams. Rank doesn’t matter. This year, everyone is beating everyone. You just have to come out with a positive attitude and do your best.”

Slew of south metro teams advance in soccer STAFF REPORT

Cherry Creek, the second-seeded team among the 32 in the boys Class 5A state soccer playoffs, advanced into the second round with a 4-0 victory over Fort Collins on Nov. 1.

The Bruins scored three times in the second half to secure the win over the 31st seeded Lambkins and moved into the second round, which was scheduled to be played Nov. 6.

Quarterfinals are set for Nov. 9, with the 5A semifinals on tap for Nov. 13 at Echo Park Stadium in Parker and the championship match scheduled for Nov. 15 at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City.

on were defending state champion Arapahoe, Regis Jesuit, Grandview, Castle View and Rock Canyon.

Sam Myers’ overtime goal lifted Arapahoe, seeded 12th, to a 2-1 win over No. 21 Rangeview.

Regis Jesuit, the sixth seed, rolled to a 6-0 win over 27th seeded Bear Creek.

Senior Luke Galan had three goals to spark the victory and Casey McCloskey had a goal and two assists for the Raiders.

Seventh-seeded Grandview, last season’s state runners-up, got a second half goal from Ivan Luna to eliminate No. 26 Poudre 1-0.

Castle View, the 10th seed, got goals from Cooper Landry and Tiernan Freiberger and posted a 2-0 win over

No. 23 Eaglecrest. Junior goalie Jackson Temme made seven saves in the win.

Rock Canyon, seeded 14th, advanced with a shootout win over 19th seeded Valor Christian. The teams ended 0-0 in regulation time and overtime, but the Jaguars won the shootout, 5-4.

Broomfield, the ninth seed, ended the season for No. 24 seed Douglas County, 3-1, and No. 28 Mountain Vista lost 3-2 in overtime at fifth seed Boulder.

In the Class 4A playoffs, Ponderosa and Littleton lost first-round matches.

Air Academy, seeded fifth, ousted No. 28 Ponderosa , 3-1, and top seeded Battle Mountain downed No. 32 Littleton 4-0.

utheran has announced it will have a varsity girls softball team that will compete next fall, and the move has led to discussions about next season’s playing status — mostly of one particular player.

Junior Katie Dack-Howell, a student at Lutheran, has played softball for Rock Canyon for the past three seasons and is one of the state’s best 5A players. But she played this season under a OVERTIME cloud of uncertainty regarding whether she can finish her prep softball career as a senior member of the Rock Canyon team, play 3A softball with a new Lutheran Jim Benton program or not play at all.

Lutheran didn’t have a softball program, so under state rule CRS 22-32-165.5, Dack-Howell could seek participation opportunities at a school in her school district of residence or her school district of attendance.

Dack-Howell, who has committed to play softball at Texas A&M and won the shot put and discus state championship last spring for Lutheran, lives in the Rock Canyon attendance area, and since Lutheran previously did not have a softball team, she played for the past three seasons at Rock Canyon.

The Colorado High School Activities Association follows state laws, so when Lutheran adds a softball program, then Dack-Howell and other students from Lutheran who might have played for other schools would be required by state law to return and play for Lutheran.

Rock Canyon softball coach Mike Desimone, Katie’s parents, CHSAA and Lutheran have had discussions. Katie’s parents are planning to appeal.

Here’s what some of those involved had to say: “One of the problems we face is nobody wants to be negative toward CHSAA or put administrators in a tough position,” said Desimone.

“Nobody is looking to do that. The life we live today is complicated and there are circumstances that SEE BENTON, P33

Buckers Unlimited holds finals in town for first time

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

he bull riding organization Buckers Unlimited held its annual finals at the Douglas County Fairgrounds, where riders competed for thousands in prize money.

The Oct. 26 event was the first time the group held its finals in Castle Rock. Typically, the event takes place in Sterling. Buckers Unlimited holds competitions in Nebraska, Wyoming and Colorado throughout the year.

Kody Lostroh, one of the organization’s founding board members, said both bull riders and bulls compete in the finals, each being judged on their performance. There were 46 riders signed up to ride bulls 1 through 4 years old during the finals. A combined $17,000 was up for grabs in prize money.

Lostroh said bull riders came from all walks of life, including “city kids” who did not have an agricultural upbringing but got into bull riding and found a passion for it.

For others, ranching is life.

“Some actual cowboys here, somebody who understands livestock or works on a ranch,” he said.

Buckers Unlimited LLC, based in Platteville, formed in 2015 to provide a

More than $17,000 in prize money was up for grabs for competitors in the Oct. 26 Buckers Unlimited finals in Castle Rock.

JESSICA GIBBS sanctioned event for breeders and riders in the Colorado area.

Despite being young, Lostroh said the bulls would be a tough match for riders. While competitors had to make an 8-second qualified ride and were scored on the difficulty of the bull, animals were scored based on the height of their kick, how much they spin, how hard they buck, and more.

“They’re going to throw a lot of guys off,” he said.

Spectators came for a variety of reasons. Laurel Phillips attended with her children and husband to watch the bulls they own compete. It was the family’s first year owning bulls in a bullriding competition, she said, calling the experience so far “amazing.”

“They get better and better every

time they do it,” she said.

Ronda Wager attended with her husband and granddaughters to watch. The family did not have a loved one competing or own bulls, but their son and the girls’ father was friends with Buckers Unlimited founder Casey Decker and was an event sponsor. They came in part to support Buckers Unlimited.

Wager’s son, Dustin, is retired from bull riding.

“It’s not anything a mom wants to watch their son do, but you’re super proud of them for sure, to watch them follow their dream,” she said.

There are risks to bull riding. As Lostroh said, the animals “can put you in the hospital.”

During the event, a bull who couldn’t “find his way home,” as the announcer said, or wouldn’t leave the arena after his ride was over, charged bullfighters and the rodeo clown’s barrel, and rammed the horse of a cowboy trying to lasso him. None were injured in this instance.

Michael Bryan understands the challenges of bull riding. The Pine resident attended with his family, he said. He has continued raising bucking bulls, after years of participating in competitions. Kelton rode bulls for roughly 35 years, he said, but the time came to retire.

“I’m all beat up and an old man now,” he said with a grin while holding his 2-year-old son, Kelton, who played in the arena before showtime. “It’s a young man’s sport.”

require us as adults to look a little deeper and understand the situation to give kids the best opportunity available to them.

“It is unfortunate to put a kid in that position as a senior. I understand if you are a freshman, you might have to switch. That’s a chance you take but you still have the lion’s share of your softball career in high school. Doing this to a senior — because it is unrealistic to expect her to play 3A because she is one of the best players in the country, let alone the state — asking that player to play at a lower level is not fair to the other players, it’s not fair for her. That’s why I feel an appeal process is necessary.”

Katie’s mother, Jamie, pointed out that Rock Canyon will lose six seniors and four starters off this season’s team and that they are not filing an appeal for an athletic advantage.

“We’re not trying to put Katie in a better situation,” said Katie’s mother “We’re just asking to finish what she started.”

CHSAA Commissioner Rhonda Blanford-Green countered with two rebuttals and feels the focus and celebration should be on Lutheran for establishing a girls softball team.

“My answer is the state statutes are clear that if your school offers a program that you participate at that school, which I 100% agree with because you are a student first,” she said.

Her second reason is that all softball players who attend Lutheran should want to be a part of a grassroots start-up team, help establish a program and be a representative of their school.

Lutheran has hired former Chaparral assistant Glen Maestretti as its first head coach, and the school has no thoughts of demanding that Katie would not finish her softball

“We are not out to disrupt anything,” said Lutheran Athletic Director Mark Duitsman. “We simply want what’s best for our students while also making decisions about what’s best for our school.

“We do have a number of current students who play softball at other schools, and we have been and continue to be their biggest fans whether they are playing for Lutheran or for a different school. We are here to serve and support our students and community and that will always be a core value for us.”
