Thorntonfest hosts small businesses, Frisbee dogs, bands for at least 50,000

BY MONTE WHALEY

As many as 50,000 people attended orntonfest at Carpenter Park Fields June 7, enjoying a variety of entertainment options from bands, boxing throwdowns, canine demonstrations as well as food trucks and o erings from small businesses on the main Marketplace throughfare. e weather cooperated without a hitch, delivering a warm sun minus a breath of wind or hint of rain.

Local artist Kathryn Diaz has displayed her unique artworks at four orntonfests and came to her latest on Saturday with a small trailer she bought to haul her wares onto Carpenter Park.

“ is camper is on her maiden voyage,” Diaz said about an hour after the event opened to the public. “So far, I’ve gotten a lot of great comments. orntonfest always helps my business.”

What’s next for Adams 12?

Chris Gdowski on leading the Five Star District through change

BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SUZIE@COTLN.ORG

At a time when many school leaders frame hard decisions in optimistic terms, Adams 12 Superintendent Chris Gdowski, a ornton High School graduate who grew up in the same blue-collar community he now serves, isn’t afraid to say what’s broken and who it hurts.

“I’m really deeply disappointed that after 16 years in this role and 30 years as either a school attorney or a superintendent, that we haven’t made meaningful strides in terms of adequacy of school funding in our state,” he said. “And dealing with these huge disparities between how much money some school districts have and how little others have.”

Now in his 16th year at the helm of the Five Star District, Gdowski is confronting familiar pressures: declining enrollment, aging infrastructure, the end of federal pandemic relief and a widening gap between student needs and local resources.

But instead of sidestepping those realities, he’s naming them clearly, consistently and often.

Facing declining enrollment head-on Adams 12, like many districts across the Denver metro area, is feeling the demographic shift of aging neighborhoods and lower birth rates.

As a result, the district is studying whether consolidations will be necessary, particularly in schools with fewer than 300 students, while also monitoring o setting trends.

“We’ve had some upticks in enrollment in some schools that have otherwise been slipping below 300,” he said, noting an in ux of newcomers and increased demand for preschool and special education space. “We’ll probably be more active in these discussions come spring.”

He added that the news isn’t all bad and that he sees opportunity in smaller school populations.

“One of the upsides to some declining enrollment is that our schools are not mammoth places anymore. Students can get to know teachers personally, and teachers can know families better when class sizes are smaller.”

Thorntonfest festival attendees took a break from wandering activity tents to look at some locally-owned classic cars that are displayed during the 2025 Thorntonfest

Westminster mandates bilingual signs

Signs will announce upcoming meetings, plans for properties

The City of Westminster is now requiring that signs posted on properties announcing pending public hearings must in both English and Spanish. The move is to better inform the city’s Spanish-language speakers about upcoming public hearings, according to the city.

Templates for the signs have been created to properly advertise the four standard

meeting types: City Council, Planning Commission, Variance and Concept Plan Review. The first three meeting types are public hearings, while the Concept Plan Review occurs at a scheduled study session.

Previously, the templates in use provided meeting information in English only, according to a city staff report to the City Council.

The four new templates present information about the upcoming meeting in Spanish and are direct translations from their “currently in-use English-language counterparts,” the report states.

“Moving forward, applicants will be required to post both an English and a Spanish sign at each location designated by the city to ensure the proper noticing of the project in both languages,” according to the report.

Requiring the new Spanish-language sings is a direct response to input provided by residents and the city council, the report states. The change…”is intended to support more inclusive communication for the city’s Spanish speaking population,” the report states.

Deputies kill man suspected of killing inlaws

BY MONTE WHALEY MONTE@COTLN.ORG

A man is believed to have killed his father-in-law and mother-in-law Friday morning before exiting the couple’s Adams County home armed with a knife in the area of Lofton Court and Kokai Circle near Sherrelwood Park.

Adams County Sheriff’s deputies then shot the 51-year-old suspect after trying several methods to get him to drop the knife.

Deputies used a Taser on the man several times, but it had no effect, Adams County Sheriff’s Sgt Adam Sherman said. They also used “soft pellets” on the suspect before shooting him. He was taken to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The suspect called 911 and and told

dispatchers what he did and also said he wanted “deputies to encounter him,” according to KUSA-TV Denver.

“There was some sort of family dynamic or dispute going on, and the suspect sent out a series of messages or phone calls to extended family members early this morning that created some alarm,” Sherman told KUSA-TV.

Deputies had responded at 5:11 AM to the home for a well-being check. When deputies got to the home, they were immediately met by the man, who refused to drop the knife, deputies said.

Deputies later found the bodies of the victims, both 79, after he was shot, and deputies entered the home to conduct a “safety sweep, deputies said.

A vehicle had crashed into the home and deputies were trying to determine if the crash was related to the deaths.

Westminster studying red light cameras

Speeding and red light cameras would require hiring more staff

BY MONTE WHALEY MONTE@COTLN.ORG

Westminster Police officials are studying putting in high-technology cameras to capture images of speeding drivers in certain intersections in the city, especial-

ly in school and construction zones designated as high-speed corridors.

A report outlining the potential uses of an Automated Vehicle Identification System in Westminster was presented Monday night to city councilors. No official action was taken.

According to the city’s report, having red light cameras could cost as much as $32,000 per month, per intersection. The funds will also cover two mobile speed enforcement cameras placed at different

locations based on the number of speeding traffic citations, crash data and citizen complaints, the report states.

A red-light camera photographs a vehicle that has entered an intersection after the traffic signal has turned red. The photo of the vehicle is used to levy fines that generally come in the mail.

Reducing crashes

State law permits local governments to designate a road as a speed corridor and use cameras to enforce speed laws. Red light cameras may be installed at intersections at the discretion of the local government jurisdiction, the Westminster staff report states.

The City of Thornton last year approved taking $204,850 from Thornton’s general fund to operate red light cameras at 120th Avenue and Colorado Boulevard and 88th Avenue and Washington Street. The intersections experience “high-frequency, high-severity crashes…” according to a Thornton city staff report to the city council.

Evidence shows that red light and speed enforcement cameras can “modify the behavior” of drivers and lead to a reduction of reckless driving in areas where they are in use, a Thornton city staff report states.

Sellers Are Putting Homes on the MLS, But Buyers Are Playing Hard to Get

In this article, I’m going to provide a market analysis that you won’t find anywhere else. Using my access to the Denver MLS, I will show you what is happening among listings within a 25-mile radius of downtown Denver that are active, pending and sold between $550,000 and $650,000.

I chose the price range because $600,000 is the median sold price in our market, unchanged from a year ago. I chose the 25-mile radius because that defines the metro area in my opinion. Every other statistical report you’ll read analyzes listings in 7 to 10 metro area counties, some of which extend many miles into the mountains (Park county) or out onto the plains (Adams, Arapahoe and Elbert counties). If you live in the Denver metro area as most people define it, my statistics are going to more accurately reflect the reality of our metro market.

Currently, as I write this on Tuesday, there are 1,543 active single family homes listed in that price range and in that 25-mile radius on REcolorado. Only 180 of them have been on the market 7 days or less, so 88.3% of them have been on the MLS over a week without selling Median days on the MLS is 38

dian listing sold for its listing price, but 20 sold for between 5 and 14 percent below the listing price.

738 listings are “pending,” and 219 of them went under contract within 7 days, so 70.3% of them lingered on the market over a week before selling. Median days on market for the pending listings is 11

Now let’s look at the 561 listings which closed in the last 30 days, not the month of May. Ten of them sold before they were entered on the MLS, and another 224 went under contract in 7 days or less. So, 57.9% of those closed listings lingered on the MLS over a week. Median days on the MLS before going under contract was 11. The me-

Denver Leads the Nation in Increase of Unsold Listings

Compare those percentages, which I have put in bold for easy spotting. There’s over a 30% difference between the percentage of sold and active listings that have lingered unsold on the MLS for over a week.

Also compare the days on MLS. The median pending and closed listings went under contract in 11 days, but the active listings have a median days on MLS of 38. Any real estate professional will tell you it’s pricing. Many active listings may now be at a price that would have sold quickly, but they were overpriced in the beginning and now fail to get buyers’ attention.

979 days on the MLS — 95 have reduced their prices, but not enough to go under contract yet. Some of those price reductions are pretty dramatic, too. Nine of them have reduced their prices by $100,000 or more, and one by $250,000 — and they still haven’t gone under contract! As mentioned above, I would wager that if those listings had started out at their current price as new listings, they would have sold quickly and possibly above their current listing price, but they remain active today as stale listings, which are harder to sell at any price.

The bottom line of this analysis should be clear by now. If a home is not priced right in the beginning, it runs the risk of lingering on the market. Price reductions should be considered within a week if there are few showings and no offers. Don’t wait a month or longer to reduce the price.

The above article first appeared on the real estate page of last Saturday’s Denver Post.

Decline in First-Time Homebuyers

The chart from realtor.com displayed below shows the wide disparity in the increase of active listings compared to before the pandemic. The darker the red, the greater the increase over pre-pandemic levels, and Denver is the darkest at a 100% increase, or double the number of pre-pandemic listings. Coming in second was Austin with 69% increase, then Seattle with 60.9% increase.

Of course, many of those active listings which haven’t sold will either be withdrawn from the MLS or will expire without selling. Indeed, there are already 87 listings in that price range in that area that were “withdrawn” from the MLS in the last 30 days. That means they are still subject to a listing agreement but have been withdrawn from the MLS for one reason or another. The median days on the MLS before being withdrawn was 41.

The cities in blue still don’t have as many active listings as they did prior to the pandemic. Worst cases are Hartford at minus 77.7%, Chicago at minus 59.3%, and Virginia Beach at minus 56.7%.

There are 760 listings in that price range and area which “expired” without selling in the last 30 days, with a median days on the MLS of 70. Of them, 51 expired despite price reductions of up to $125,000.

Of the 100 oldest sold listings (between 68 and 339 days on the MLS) that went under contract in that price range and in that area, all but 9 of them only sold after reducing their listing price at least once. The average price reduction was $39,000, with the highest being $251,000.

Among the 100 oldest listings that are still active on REcolorado — ranging from 152 to

The National Association of Realtors (NAR) reports only 24% of housing sales last year were by first-time homebuyers, down from 50% in 2010. The typical purchaser is also older than in the past, with an average age of 38, or about 10 years above historical norms.

Roughly 20% of listed homes in March were affordable for households with $75,000 in annual income, according to a NAR analysis of property listings. Today, a household with annual income of $50,000 can only afford 8.7% of listings, down from 9.4% a year ago, according to the data.

These are national figures, however. The NAR report (for which you’ll find a hyperlink at http;// RealEstateToday.substack.com) does not provide separate figures for our market, which is probably even more severe in this regard.

Thornton denounces anti-semitic Boulder attack

Northglenn, Thornton city councils assure Jewish residents they are safe

BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Two local cities issued sharp rebukes to the June 1 attack on Boulder’s Pear Street Mall, when a man allegedly threw Molotov cocktails at a group that walks each Sunday to advocate for the release of Israeli hostages in Gaza.

“We are community leaders, I think it means a lot that we take a stand,” ornton City Councilman Justin Martinez said Tuesday.

He and other councilmembers spoke about showing solidarity toward the Jewish community before voting unanimously to support a resolution condemning the Boulder attack.

e Northglenn City Council also passed a resolution condeming the attacks and Westminster o cials said a similar move is on the Westminster City Council’s June 23 agenda.

Deliberate, hateful violence e ornton resolution said the individual used a makeshift amethrower to target participants of the Run for eir Lives Walk, a peaceful event to raise awareness of hostages held by Hamas in Gaza since the October 7, 2023, terrorist attacks against Israel. e Boulder assault injured eight individuals, two with serious burns requiring airlift to a medical facility.

“… is attack, occurring on the eve of the Jewish holiday of Shavuot, represents a deliberate and hateful act of violence against the Jewish community and their supporters, exacerbating fears amid a signi cant rise in antisemitic incidents across the United States following the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks,” the resolution states.

“… Antisemitism poses a growing threat in Colorado and globally, manifesting in physical violence, harassment, vandalism, and hateful rhetoric, including tropes that falsely blame Jews for societal issues or con ate Jewish individuals with the policies of the Israeli government,” according to the resolution.

“… e City of ornton has previously

condemned hate speech, including antisemitic, white supremacist, and homophobic materials distributed in the Hunters Glenn neighborhood in 2022, and remains steadfast in its commitment to fostering a safe and inclusive community for all residents,” the resolution states. “… the City of ornton recognizes the fundamental right of all individuals to live, work, and engage in peaceful activities without fear of intimidation, violence, or discrimination, and acknowledges the profound impact of this attack on the Jewish community’s sense of security.”

Councilmembers said they wanted to assure the city’s Jewish residents that they were safe in ornton. “We are here to protect you,” Councilwoman Karen Bigelow said.

Combat Antisemitism Movement

Northglenn City Council also unanimously passed a resolution Monday night that states the city has partnered with Combat Antisemitism Movement – CAM – a global coalition committed to ending antisemitism in all forms, to strengthen the city’s understanding and response to antisemitism hate.

Why a tax measure to increase teacher pay failed

In 2024, voters overwhelmingly approved an $830 million bond to fund facility upgrades and school rebuilds. But they rejected a companion mill levy override that would have raised operating dollars for would’ve gone to higher teacher salaries and additional student services.

Gdowski said it came down to affordability.

“What we heard in our polling is we (voters) believe in the district, we believe in the importance of education,” Gdowski said. “We’re satised with what you’re doing, and we thought you had a thoughtful proposal, but we just can’t a ord to pay any more in taxes.”

e result? e district recently announced a $27 million budget reduction, 150 job cuts and reduced sta ng for programs such as gifted education and teacher librarians.

Still, Gdowski says the district may come to voters again with another mill levy override proposal. Community surveys this summer will help gauge interest, with a formal decision expected in August.

“If we just get a little bit more money in so that we can be middle of the pack… we can do outstanding things with that money,” he said.

Doing more with less

Despite ranking 14th out of 15 metro districts in per-pupil funding, Gdowski says Adams 12 has shown

strong academic gains thanks to strategic sta ng, quality instruction and a shared belief in education as a pathway to opportunity.

“Ever since I started, getting to a better place in terms of student achievement and academic growth has been a huge priority,” he said. “We believe that education can be a huge opportunity-expander for families, and we take that work seriously.”

He credits the district’s gains, including its highest-ever SAT scores, improved AP performance, higher graduation rates and more than 1,000 career and technical education credentials this year, to hiring great sta and providing them with what they need to be e ective.

But he warns that sustaining this progress will require more support.

“ e key part of delivering all those things… is outstanding sta . at’s where we spend 90% plus of our budget,” he said. “Finding ways to get some money back into the system so that we can continue to attract the very best sta is a huge priority.”

Reimagining Thornton High and career pathways

Among the most visible signs of investment is the complete rebuild of ornton High School. For decades, the school’s hallmark was its International Baccalaureate program. But Gdowski says the community’s needs have changed.

“We’d have a half dozen to a dozen IB diploma graduates in each senior class,” he said. “Now we’re seeing strong interest in practical skills that open up career pathways.”

e new campus will o er six ca-

reer and technical education pathways, ranging from culinary science to advanced manufacturing, computer science and digital technology.

And CTE expansion isn’t stopping at high school. e district is reviving hands-on middle school experiences, such as woodworking and family and consumer sciences.

“What we see now are lots of kids who want to have those hands-on experiences,” Gdowski said.

What Keeps Him Going

As one of Colorado’s longest-serving superintendents, Gdowski says the work still brings joy, especially at graduation.

“It’s uplifting to go to graduations each year and hear the stories of kids who’ve overcome so many difculties,” he said. “ ey’re going to live lives their parents never could have conceived of for themselves.” at belief in education as an opportunity equalizer keeps him in the job, even when the policy progress isn’t where he hoped it would be.

“We haven’t made meaningful strides in school funding adequacy,” he said. “ at’s shocking and disappointing to me.”

Still, Gdowski says he’s constantly learning from students, peers and newer superintendents across Colorado.

“ ere are surprises every day,” he said. “I try to be humble in this job... not to believe I have all the answers.”

at kind of humility and candor has de ned Gdowski’s leadership. And even after decades in education, he says the belief that schools can change lives still motivates him.

Polls for Fire Department, road repairs on the horizon

Westminster City Council took the rst step on June 9 to have a polling document prepared to be used by Magellen Strategies to garner voters’ opinions on both the Fire Department improvements, which have previously been identi ed, along with a new roads improvement package.

e Fire Department package will be scaled back from last year’s attempt if it goes on the ballot. e far northeast re station will be nanced by Urban Renewal funds and the training center will have di erent funding, so there would be some scaling back of the cost and the needed funding.

e roads component is new for the public to consider. Council believes it is important to improve roads in Westminster throughout the city.

A funding mechanism for both the Fire and Roads will be included, involving choices of property tax increase, sales and use tax increase and using bonding.

While there was limited concern on both how high Westminster’s sales tax could become (9.35%) and thinking perhaps next year the economy would be better – which could give further support to the ballot – the council ordered the polling document to move forward.

e whole process to get a ballot question on the November ballot is tight, but can be done. Sta and the consultant will bring a draft polling document for council’s review on June 16.

CROSS CURRENTS

Two U.S. representatives from Colorado, Je Hurd and Gabe Evans, will be walking a tight rope posed by One Big Beautiful Bill Act. How exactly will they explain why they voted for the sprawling 1,000-page bill. If adopted by the Senate as written, the law would certainly raise electricity rates and slow the adoption of electric vehicles.

Together with the topsy-turvy tari s imposed by President Donald Trump on China, the bill may help drive up prices of gas-fueled cars and trucks, too.

In Durango, La Plata Electric Association has already seen impacts of the bill. e electrical cooperative received bids for its all-sources solicitation for 150 megawatts of generation. Wind, solar, natural gas — even geothermal and nuclear were eligible. Because of the uncertainty of federal tax incentives, all bids were higher than otherwise expected.

Chris Hansen, the chief executive, said most interesting to him were impacts of the proposed bill coupled with Trump’s 50% tari s on steel and aluminum. e cost of new electrical transformers has already gone up signi cantly.

We discussed the development of socalled emerging technologies like geothermal. Developers need long-term certainty to justify their investments. “ ey’re much more di cult to do if you have policy uncertainty,” Hansen said. Hurd and Evans were among 21 Republican representatives who in March signed a letter to legislative leaders that asked tax credits for clean energy be preserved to “increase domestic manufac-

e whole polling document process was a sore point with city council as then City Manager Mark Freitag chose not to review it with council prior to deciding to place it on the November, 2024 election.

What’s the best timing to seek a tax increase?

at is always the question seeking to nd a favorable, supportive environment to ask voters to raise taxes and be successful. is year, the economy is somewhat shaky, especially with President Trump’s on again-o again imposition of tari s. is especially impacts small businesses not knowing how much inventory to purchase, as well as having to deal with rising prices versus absorbing higher costs.

Also, the mood of the nation is not positive, involving various situations including immigration enforcement, high grocery costs remaining and both the Ukraine War and the Gaza con ict.

However, it could be worse next year. All levels of government are faced with declining revenues and rising costs. Plus, previous federal grants and funds are next to a thing of the past. All the ush COVID 19 federal funds are gone. And it will be the mid-term Congressional elec-

tions that have all the indications of being a rowdy set of contests between the two political parties.

Of course, the council will have the bene t of the polling results. However, last year’s results could not have been much more favorable on the Fire Department improvement package supporting a 5% sales and use tax increase. Assuming favorable polling results this time, I would go ahead and put the package on the ballot.

However, if it is defeated this time, a third attempt would be slim or none. is also assumes that the council and city manager get out and promote/campaign for the ballot issue. I know they are doing some community meetings now, but they will need printed material to be mailed to all voters.

e re union members should weigh in too and provide boots on the ground to distribute literature and do door knocks.A lot is riding on this ballot proposal, and all means should be called to help.

Elizabeth price was a true Westminster pioneer

turing, promote energy innovation and keep utility costs down.” Hurd signed another letter in early May asking that the incentives for innovation in nuclear energy remain.

Trump visited Capitol Hill two days before the vote, threatening any Republicans who voted no to expect opposition in their primaries. Two Republicans in the House did anyway, although two others did not vote and one merely showed up. All Democrats opposed the bill.

Evans won election last November by a whisker in the purplish Eighth Congressional District north of Denver. Hurd has a more comfortable margin in the Republican-leaning ird Congressional District. It covers much of the Western Slope and sprawls eastward to Pueblo and within shouting distance of the Oklahoma border.

Colorado, particularly along the Front Range, has become a hotspot for energy innovation and investment. Will a contraction occur if the House bill survives Senate scrutiny?

Vestas, the manufacturer of blades and nacelles for wind turbines at factories in Brighton and Windsor, invested $40 million in expansion and hired 700 people in expectation of orders for 1,000 turbines during 2025.

At Namaste Solar in Boulder, chief executive Jason Sharpe said he is unsure whether to plan for expansion or con-

striction. “As a business owner, how do you plan a business with this amount of uncertainty, trying to thread the needle between coping with political change and not creating panic among my employees? It’s challenging,” he said.

Republicans hold a three-vote advantage in the Senate, but four Republican senators in April sent a letter to Senate Majority Leader John une cautioning against “the full-scale repeal of current credits.”

And Evans was among 13 Republicans in the House who led a letter on June 6 to une calling for the Senate to “substantively and strategically improve clean energy tax credit provisions” in the budget reconciliation bill.

“We just hit half-time. We’re still very much in the middle of this game,” said Harry Godfrey, who manages federal priorities for Advanced Energy United, a national industry association that monitors Colorado and 16 other states.

“ ey really went after just about everything that they could in the realm of clean energy and electric vehicles,” said Will Toor, who directs the Colorado Energy O ce. “I would certainly hope that cooler and wiser heads will prevail in the Senate.”

Soon after the House vote on May 22, Sen. Michael Bennet got an earful from leaders of Xcel Energy, Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association and other Colorado’s electrical utilities.

“ is casts a broad shadow on lots of the progress that the state has made in terms of power supply,” United Power CEO Mark Gabriel told Bennet.

“I am a practical businessman. I don’t

have dreadlocks. I don’t wear Birkenstocks. is is not a crusade,” said Gabriel in a later interview.

At issue, he emphasized, is resource adequacy and reliability for his utility, which serves one of Colorado’s fastestgrowing areas north and east of Denver, including many oil and gas operations. Because electricity is increasingly used in oil and gas extraction and transport, it could raise their fossil fuel costs, too.

“ ese tax credits are critical to keeping costs, and therefore rates, stable for our members,” said CORE Electrical Cooperative, which serves Castle Rock and other south-metro areas, including part of U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert’s district, who also voted for the bill.

Holy Cross Energy has a goal of 100% emission-free electricity by 2030. In October and in April it surpassed 90%. For 2025, it expects to end up north of 80% compared to 50% just a few years ago — while maintaining among the lowest electrical rates in Colorado.

One of its programs, Power+FLEX, would be especially impacted. It encourages Holy Cross members to install batteries in a way that bene ts the homes and businesses but also allows Holy Cross to draw upon them when needed. Loss of the tax credit will make the batteries more expensive, dampening future demand.

We the People: America Is an Idea

What is a country? What makes it up? Is it an enclosed area populated by people speaking a common language, honoring certain customs and traditions, and practicing similar religions? Are there traits a country’s people share? Perhaps love for a particular sport: football, sumo wrestling, rugby. Or cuisine: lasagna, frog legs, sushi. What about size and history? Ideas abound when thinking of a country’s makeup.

My questions aren’t meant to be a query into geo-political dynamics but instead to prompt thinking about how America is distinct relative to other countries.

Peggy Noonan says America was invented. I prefer constructed or built since it was a matter of our Founders piecing together building blocks that had been created over the ages including democracy, trial by jury, and due process. Maybe it’s a matter of semantics because in the end we’d probably agree America’s founding was unique.

A few countries are ancient despite undergoing iterations throughout their history. China and India along with Egypt and Greece come to mind. Others formed through evolution. Due to the migrating tribes that swept into Europe over the millennia, sometimes displacing and sometimes blending with the native populations, Europe is lled with such countries. It’s a fascinating story, one that might add spice to your research into your family’s origins.

America, though, is di erent. Other than the native populations, people didn’t happen upon here; they intentionally came, initially from Spain, France, and England mainly. Most carried with them their birth country’s traditions and practices, especially religion.

But the English colonists’ experience di ered from the other two. First, they were primarily Protestant, not Catholic, and largely guided by the Calvinistic Puritan Ethic. Further, their unifying principle centered around one broad idea: freedom. And with that came diversity, tolerance, and acceptance, even if they weren’t ideally practiced.

With the Magna Carta, the instinct for liberty became ingrained in the English consciousness. It was enhanced by the rise of mercantilism and the schism between the English and Roman Churches. So by the 1770s, it became a fool’s errand for King George III, Lord North, et al to try to whip the Americans, who no longer consider themselves English, into shape. It was that mindset that led to the Americans to take up arms. ey fought, bled, and died for freedom. ey bequeathed it to us, and that idea is a tenet of America to this day. at said, there are some in great positions of power who have a di erent view about the meaning of America. eirs

is a transactional, selfserving perspective. It’s not principled. Rather, it’s utilitarian, which according to MerriamWebster, means “the aim of action should be the largest possible balance of pleasure over pain.” ey see America as a playground, a venue to accumulate wealth. It’s a tension currently being played out in our socio-political exchange. at and them aside, there’s more than the sanctity of freedom and opportunity that bind us. ere’s social trust, among us the people and in our institutions. ere are commonly shared traditions and customs like reworks on the Fourth of July and football on anksgiving Day. ere are honored and sacred sites that should be inviolate—places of worship and learning and forums for free speech, from sidewalk soap boxes to press rooms— even if one doesn’t believe in their preachings and agree with their teachings and opinions.

It’s been an ongoing struggle to defend and expand that fundamental idea of America. It got especially ugly in the Civil War, but it didn’t doom the American experiment. A poignant tale from it is telling and relevant.

In “ ese Generals Were the Closest of Enemies,” Peggy Noonan recounts an anecdote, originally told in Michael Shaara’s “ e Killer Angels,” about the enduring friendship between two Civil War generals, Win eld Scott Hancock of the Union and Lewis “Lo” Armistead of the Confederacy. As fate would have it, they nearly met face to face at the Battle of Gettysburg. Scott was wounded but survived; Armistead died of his wounds in a Union hospital tent.

When the war began, Armistead sent Hancock’s wife a package that she was to open only in the event of his death. She honored his request. It was Armistead’s family Bible.

Peggy says stories like these are part of our history and shouldn’t be lost because if we lose them, we lose part of ourselves and “part of the gift we give our immigrants.”

“We’ve overcome a great deal,” she writes. “We see this best if we don’t deny our history but tell the whole messy, complicated, embarrassing, ennobling tale.”

Now, there’s an idea for you.

THORTONFEST

Pennies for your thoughts

e City of ornton used ortonfest to gather interest in at least 14 proposed projects by distributing city-donated pennies to people to vote for diagrams of each project. City sta members said they would count the pennies dropped by each diagram to determine the most popular designs. “It’s just one of the tools we are using to determine what projects you (residents) want the city to take on over the next

20 years,” said Doug Romig, the city’s director of park recreation and community programs. “We also conduct online surveys and use other methods to gauge interest. We also wanted to show the public that there are limits to what projects we can take on.”

Sprinkles – a year-old border collie – drew plenty of accolades during the Frisbee tossing competition. With trainer Jessica Anderson icking the Frisbee, Sprinkles quickly sprinted to catch nearly every toss.

“ is is great, we are having so much fun,” said Anderson, who lives in Colorado Springs but drove to ornton with Sprinkles to take on the competition. “We just started with the Frisbee last week, so this is good start for us.”

CAMERAS

However, some members of the public view the cameras negatively and in the case of red-light cameras, the devices can lead to more rear-end crashes, the sta report states. Westminster sta states that several vendors provide AVIS services with cost estimates for covering all four directions at a single intersection range for $18,000 to $32,000 a month. ose costs would be o set by new nes.

In general, revenue recovery may be achieved with 32 to 40 violations a day at an intersection, the Westminster sta report states. Revenue from those nes would cover vendor costs, with any remaining revenue kept by the city.

One to two sta members would have to be hired to implement speed cameras, and ve to seven sta positions may have to be added for red light cameras, the report states.

Vendors o er both xed systems, which are permanently installed at speci c sites, and mobile units, which are mounted on vehicles or trailers. Speeding violations are initially processed using arti cial intelligence. Before any summons is issued, human veri cation is required to con rm that the vehicle description matches the captured image, the Westminster sta report states.

Speeding systems capture photos of the vehicle and license plate but not of the driver, the report states. Red light cameras capture photos of the vehicle, license plate and driver.

Sta did not have a timeline to present for installing the speed and redlight cameras in Westminster.

BY RYLEE DUNN

For many, the feeling is all too familiar: hands awkwardly gripping the fretboard, the sharp bite of the strings digging into ngertips, an out-of-pitch buzz emitting from the soundhole — the early days of learning to play guitar can dissuade even the most persistent student from the pursuit.

Yet those who persist often discover the hard-earned spoils of guitar playing. Camp res become enlivened with sound, impromptu jam sessions serendipitously come together and in some cases, bands and long-standing musical careers are formed.

While many guitarists learn the instrument when they’re children, others come by it later in life – and the instrument has plenty to o er folks no matter when they pick it up. David Gilbert, a father of two from Englewood, began playing recently because he wanted to expose his young children to the magic of live music.

“I’m pushing 40,” Gilbert said. “At this point, the likelihood that I’m going to end up some guitar virtuoso is pretty slim, but what I recognize is that I can get to a point where I can subject my family to some camp re songs.

“And I think that kind of speaks to the essence of guitar — kind of as this common man’s instrument that doesn’t take too much to get to a point where you can play

some simple sing-along songs with kids, or get to a point where you can just make a fun sound or a little tune,” he continued. “So at this point, that’s my goal; to learn enough chords that I can play some music.”

Gilbert, like many other later–life guitar learners, has turned to a common source of information in the modern age for instruction: YouTube.

e widely utilized social media site is sought out by both novices and seasoned professionals alike.

Warren Rubin is a lifelong guitarist who began playing at an early age and now plays bass guitar in the Arvada-based band, Dive Bar Diva. Rubin works as a soundman for artists such as Hazel Miller and operates an ampli er repair shop out of his garage. He is sometimes known as the “Amp Whisperer.”

Rubin says that there are more resources out there for aspiring guitarists now than there have ever been.

“You don’t have to take classes every week or every month; as much as you need to just pursue interesting ideas,” Rubin said. “Watch other people who have other approaches to the instrument. We live in a golden age for this sort of thing, because you can turn to YouTube and there are people who are just absolutely brilliant guitarists showing you what they do and how they do it.”

Guitarist Kevin Pounds has played in a number of Colorado bands, including We Are Not A Glum Lot (pictured). PHOTO BY MACHKNE RUDNICKI

Some of the YouTube channels Rubin and Gilbert recommend are Rick Beato, Justin Guitar, Paul Davids, Andy Guitar, and Wings of Pegasus.

While Rubin acknowledges the utility of something like YouTube, he also continues to take in-person lessons at the Olde Town Pickin’ Parlor in Arvada, despite having played the instrument for over six decades.

“All of the best guitar players I know — including my teacher, who has a master’s degree in jazz — continue to take classes,” Rubin said. “If you can a ord it, take lessons, not because it’s the only way to learn the instrument, but it gives you a strong set of fundamentals.”

e Denver metro area is awash with music schools that o er guitar lessons. Arvada’s Pickin’ Parlor, Denver’s Swallow Hill Music, Englewood’s Denver Music Institute and the Littleton School of Music all o er lessons for a variety of di erent styles and skill levels.

While many continue to take lessons long after rst picking up the instrument, other players eschew them altogether. Kevin Pounds — a Colorado Springsbased musician who records under the name Kevin Lbs. and has played in bands including We Are Not A Glum Lot and e Short-TERM — is completely self-taught and learned the instrument by ear.

“I spent my rst year playing, probably hours a day, sounding out Nirvana songs by ear,” Pounds said. “Just dragging my ngers up the strings until I heard some semblance of what was coming out of the speaker across from me. I became a bit more literate with time. I started to realize that certain chords that I was learning matched individual notes on my fretboard.”

Pounds echoed Rubin’s sentiment about trying to learn from others.

“Try not to compare yourself to others,” Pounds said. “It can be very discouraging. But on that note, don’t be afraid to steal their tricks or techniques. You’re always going to put your own scent on it anyway.” Gilbert said the main hurdles he’s dealt with as a newer player are developing the muscle memory to be able to quickly change chords and nding time to practice.

“It reminds me, actually, somewhat of where I started to feel a little stumped with learning a foreign language,” Gilbert said. “Doing rapid chord changes is still something I’m training my ngers to do.

“ e other big challenge for me right now is just time,” Gilbert continued. “You know, I’ve got a full-time job and I’ve got kids, so, if I’m lucky, I’ve got half an hour in the evening to sit down with a YouTube tutorial and mess around with guitar. But that’s sort of the bene t of the YouTube thing. I don’t have to build lessons into my schedule. I can t them in where it works.”

Rubin said that instead of seeking out mastery, one should play simply for the enjoyment of the instrument.

“If it brings you joy, you already play well enough,” Rubin said. “And you know, what brings you joy? Is it just playing three chords and being able to sing some of your favorite songs? Is it being able to sit in your chair and noodle a little bit while you watch television? Do it. It’s never too late to start.

“You don’t need to become a virtuoso,” Rubin continued. “I’m not going to live long enough to be a virtuoso, but you don’t need to be a virtuoso for playing to bring you joy.”

Guitarist Kevin Pounds learned the instrument by ﬁguring out songs by ear, demonstrating one of the many paths one can take on their way to learning to play.

Folks of any age can learn to play guitar, and there are lots of methods available by which to do so.

Taylor Swift wins protection from Adams County man

Henderson resident claims relationship with pop star

BY MONTE WHALEY MONTE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

An Adams County man who claims rock superstar Taylor Swift is the mother of his son is the target of a restraining order issued at Swift’s request. e restraining order against 45-year-old Brian Jason Wagner of Henderson was issued by a Los Angeles Superior Court judge. e order prohibits Wagner from harassing, stalking, assaulting or disturbing Swift as well as contacting or approaching within 100 yards of Swift, her home, and her workplace. e order is e ective through the court hearing in the case on June 30, according to USA Today. Wagner couldn’t be reached for comment by press time.

In her June 6 petition to the court, Swift said she lived with “a fear of imminent harm” due to Wagner’s alleged repeated visits to her home and “concerning and threatening” communications with her sta , USA Today reported.

“I do not share publicly where I reside and have never shared my address or the location of my Los Angeles residence with Mr. Wagner,” Swift wrote to the court. “ erefore, the fact that Mr. Wagner has determined where I reside and visited the property several times, refusing to leave and claiming to need access, makes me fear for my safety and the safety of my family.”

Swift’s ling was submitted two weeks after Wagner allegedly made two consecutive appearances at her Los Angeles home on May 21 and May 22 “...asking to see me personally and stating that he was there checking on a friend (again, this is entirely untrue).”

Wagner rst visited Swift’s home on July 9, 2024, and returned at least two more times that month, according to her petition and reported by USA Today.

“During each of these visits, I am informed that Mr. Wagner made various statements about living at my property (not true), being in a relationship with me (not true), believing I am the mother of his son (not true), and needing to see me in person, all of which are untrue and disconnected from reality,” Swift wrote to the court.

Adams County studies commuter preferences

Adams County is convening a focus group to study how community members travel to essential destinations like work, school, grocery stores and transit stops. e County is considering several electric mobility programs and is gathering community feedback to shape these decisions.

In addition, Swift said, Wagner “tried to divert mail from my residence to his attention” and successfully changed his driver’s license residence to re ect her address.

eral programs are being considered for a pilot project. ose include E-bike/E-scooter share programs (sometimes called “micromobility”) that allow community members to rent an e-bike or e-scooter for short amounts of time. Also being considered are Carshare programs – that allow community members to rent vehicles for short periods – and community shuttle programs that o er exible shuttle or van services that operate either on a xed schedule or on-demand, allowing community members to book trips via an app or phone call.

An additional declaration from one of her security sta ers, Alex Welch, revealed Wagner’s new California driver’s license was mailed to Swift’s home, which alerted her security team to the fact that he was falsely claiming to live there, USA Today states.

To be eligible to serve, potential volunteers must be registered to vote in the city, have resided in the city for at least one year and must pass a background check. Speci c boards have their own requirements for eligibility as well.
