The year that was for Jefferson County

YEAR in Review

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The year 2017 was one of note for Jefferson County. Here is a whirlwind recitation of some of the stories that filled our pages this previous calendar.

Combining public safety services CHEEZO lives again — Following a temporary shutdown of the Child Sex Offender Internet Investigations (CSOII) Unit — which is recognized by its mascot CHEEZO — an official transfer of the unit from the district attorney’s office to the sheriff ’s office allowed it to continue its work of protecting children against internet sex crimes.

On Feb. 2, Jefferson County Sheriff Jeff Shrader swore in four people to continue the CHEEZO unit in the south precinct of the sheriff ’s office.

CHEEZO has two main components to it. One is public education on safety concerning internet crimes, and the other is investigations into identifying perpetrators of sexual internet crimes against children.

The temporary shutdown was prompted in the later months of 2016 because of a complaint that the district attorney’s office was in violation of ethical rules because CHEEZO investigations took on assumed personas during undercover operations.

Colorado law allows law enforcement agencies to conduct deceptive investigations tactics, but lawyers — including the law office of the district attorney — cannot. The CHEEZO unit was developed by a married couple who are certified law enforcement offi-

It did not take long for the Sheriff ’s Department to restart the program.

“CHEEZO is alive and well,” said Pete Weir, district attorney for the 1st Judicial District, which includes Gilpin and Jefferson counties. “This great work will continue.”

JeffCom 911 — Come 2018, a new Jeffco communications center located 433 S. Allison Parkway in Lakewood will become effective.

JeffCom 911 is the consolidation of several Jefferson County public safety and emergency dispatch services to one centralized location.

Its eight member agencies are Arvada Fire, Arvada Police, Evergreen Fire Rescue, Golden Police, Lakewood Police, Jefferson County Sheriff, Wheat Ridge Police and West Metro Fire Protection. JeffCom will also serve 23 smaller emergency response agencies in the county.

Initial discussions began about five years ago and an intergovernmental agreement for JeffCom operations became effective in June 2016.

Golden’s fire and police departments, West Metro Fire Protection and the Jeffco Sheriff ’s Department are scheduled to be fully integrated

in February. Arvada’s fire and police departments and Wheat Ridge Police will transition in March. The final two agencies, Lakewood Police and Evergreen Fire Rescue, will transition in April.

Rooney Valley controversy This time last year a development fight was brewing between two beheamoths, dinosaurs and a car dealership.

On Jan. 11, dozens of area residents, some dressed up quite dino-esque, braved cold temperatures to rally at the Jefferson County courts and administration building in Golden to either learn more about the proposed rezone to land located near the west side of the C-470 and Alameda interchange — close to the geologically significant Dinosaur Ridge — or to make sure their voices of opposition are heard.

Although the Jefferson County commissioners’ decision later that month on the land’s proposed rezoning resulted in no car dealership on the property, the future of the area is far from settled.

“Whatever comes along in the future will be well-inspected,” Linnea Hauser, vice president of the Dinosaur Ridge Neighbors group. “And opposition will be taken if need be. We’ll be

right on top of it.”

The two parcels of land, totalling 70.5 acres, is owned by Three Dinos, LLC. Although the Board of County Commissioners limited commercial lot sizes, and disallowed an auto dealership, the land’s zoning has long permitted a variety of commercial and light industrial uses such as office buildings, retail, banks, restaurants, medical supply/drugstores and laboratories.

Speaking on behalf of Three Dinos at the Jan. 17 meeting, a representative said what people don’t understand is that the area has been zoned for development for a decade.

“They want it to remain open space,” he said, but “that’s just not where we are right now.”

Senior-aged Arvada resident still missing

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Arvada is still missing one of its own as the New Year comes in.

James Mitchell, 87, has been missing since mid-December. Just after 8 a.m. on Dec. 14, railroad workers at the depot in Golden discovered an abandoned pickup truck that had crashed into one of the railcars sometime during the night prior.

The workers reported it to police, who identified Mitchell as the vehicle’s owner. Arvada Police Department went to Mitchell’s home, but found no one there.

After attempting to reach Mitchell

SPOTTING JAMES MITCHELL Mitchell is 5 feet and 10 inches tall and weighs 180 pounds. He has blue eyes and thinning gray hair. He was last seen wearing a blue fleece vest, black short sleeve shirt, khaki cargo pants and black athletic shoes with Velcro closures.

If you have any information about his whereabouts, please call the Golden Police Department at 303-384-8045. on several phone numbers that Golden police officers found inside the truck, one of the department’s investigators was able to speak with Mitchell’s son, who confirmed that his father is missing.

Mitchell is possibly injured from the crash — police found blood inside the truck cab. He also possibly suffers from dementia and does not have any identification or a cell phone with him.

The Golden Police Department conducted three unsuccessful searches for Mitchell, which has included the use of bloodhounds, cadaver dogs and drones. The final search took place at about 7:30 a.m. Dec. 20. The search area encompassed several miles of paths and trails, rugged hillsides and residential areas.

A family member reached for this story said the family was directing all questions to the Golden Police Department.

James Mitchell, 87, of Arvada is still missing. He may be injured and possibly suffers from dementia. He does not have any identification or a cell phone with him.

The investigation remains active and ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to call Golden police at 303-384-8045.

Golden Real Estate: ‘Promoting & Modeling Environmental Responsibility’ That phrase in the headline above is one of two value statements that appear on all of Golden Real Estate’s yard signs. (The other is “Hometown Service Delivered With Integrity.”) One of the ways we “model environmental responsibility” is in our efficient use of energy at our South Golden Road office. First we had 5 kW of solar photovoltaic (PV) panels installed on the roof of our office. Next, in 2012, we purchased our first electric car, a Chevy Volt. In 2014 we purchased our first Tesla. That led to the installation of another 5 kW of solar PV, groundmounted at the rear of our parking lot, followed by another 10 kW to support the two additional free-to-the-public charging stations we had installed in our parking lot. In our office, we installed four sun tunnels (aka Solatubes, a brand name), which draw natural sunlight into our office, further reducing our electrical consumption. We replaced the gas water heater with a tankless electric one. We super-insulated our building to reduce the amount of natural gas required to heat it.

Thus, it was only a matter of time before we stopped burning natural gas in our building altogether. We decided to utilize the excess electricity being produced by our solar panels and had a state-of-the-art heat pump (called a “mini-split”) system installed. It replaced the large natural gas forced air furnace and air conditioning system (shown here on our roof) which had effectively heated and cooled our office for many years, but which gave us a natural gas bill as high as $175 per month in the winter.

Following the installation of the heat pump system, we asked Xcel Energy to remove our gas meter, which they did in late November. As a result of ending natural gas service, our December 2017 Xcel Energy bill was just $11.79, which is the what Xcel charges to be connected to their electric grid. That bill (and bills of the foreseeable future) reflected zero kilowatt-hours purchased from Xcel, thanks to “net metering.” Xcel’s electric grid functions

as our “battery,” allowing us to send the electricity we don’t use to Xcel when the sun is shining, then draw it back when it’s dark — or when our panels are covered with snow! This combination of selfproduction (20 kilowatts of solar PV) and use of the electric grid when necessary, ensures we can power our office (including heating and cooling) and charge our electric cars without buying any electricity.

Mini-splits are commonly used in other countries for the heating and cooling of homes and businesses and they’re beginning to gain traction in the United States because of their efficient use of electricity instead of natural gas or other fossil fuels.

Bill Lucas-Brown of GB3 Energy, the company that installed our system, believes that mini-splits are the future, so much so that they are the only heating and cooling systems he’s installing nowadays. On Bill’s recommendation, we had GB3 install what he considers the best mini-split system on the market, made by Mitsubishi. It utilizes a single condenser unit that powers three wall-mounted interior units. It is so efficient, we just leave the wall units set at 70 degrees 24/7. It’s also an intelligent system, in that it can sense where people are and direct warm air (or cool air when it’s hot out) toward them.

Mini-splits are also ductless. GB3 strategically placed three units around our office, and the improved comfort level, accomplished with minimal noise and without obvious air flow, was immediately noticeable by our agents and visitors alike. As an added benefit, the mini-split system allowed us to remove the ugly ducts hanging from our black office ceiling, which we then re-painted in white, making the office feel bigger and brighter. If you’d like more information on mini-split systems, you can call or text Bill at 970-846-4766.

We are leaving the 30-year-old furnace and A/C unit on the roof, saving the cost of removing it by crane. As you can see in this photo, the condenser unit which feeds all three interior wall units is quite small – even smaller than the A/C compressor sitting outside a typical home. .

How does a heat pump work? As so well expressed on ashen.org (where I downloaded the diagram above), when it’s cold outside, a heat pump extracts heat from the outside air (which it can do even below freezing) and transfers that heat inside. When it’s warm outside, it reverses direction and acts like an air conditioner, removing heat from your home. A heat pump moves heat as opposed to generating it, which is more energy efficient.

The diagram shows the architecture of a heat pump system for a typical home. In such an installation, you’ll see one or more groundmounted condenser units, with coils running along the bottom of the exterior walls and then up the walls to where the interior wall units are positioned. Our system is similar except that our condenser unit is on the roof, which keeps both it and the coils to each of the three wall units out of sight.

At right is a photo of one of our wall units, just below our nowwhite ceiling. A minisplit condenser can support multiple wall units, and in our application the coils from that one unit run across our roof and then through the roof to the location of the three wall units.

You’d be hard pressed to see any of the piping from outside our building.

As I mentioned above, we removed the furnace ducting. Above right is a picture of

those ducts sitting in our parking lot, waiting to be picked up for recycling.

So, what’s next at Golden Real Estate? It would be hard to improve upon the energy efficiency of our office, so our next move will likely be to replace our gasoline-burning 2004 box truck (provided free to buyers and sellers and to local nonprofits) with a battery powered electric box truck. Such trucks are being manufactured in other countries and should be widely available here within the next few years. It was with that intention that we installed our two EV charging stations next to where we park our trucks, as shown in the picture below. Currently, clients and non-profits who borrow our trucks

at no cost are still expected to replace the gasoline they burn, but when they borrow our new electric truck, we can say, “Never mind about refueling it. Just plug it in when you return it.”

We welcome the opportunity to meet with you in your home to discuss your real estate needs.

Valor Point provides a temporary home for the brave Lakewood facility offers therapies and employment and housing services

VETS AND HOMELESSNESS Veterans are over-represented among the homeless population. It is estimated that veterans represent nine percent of the total homeless population, and that homeless veterans tend to be male (91 percent), single (98 percent), live in a city (76 percent), and have a mental and/or physical disability (54 percent).

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

To be successful at something, it usually takes more than one go. And that includes getting off the streets and finding stable living and employment.

Mike, 54, and Eddie, 55, neither of whom wanted their last names used for privacy reasons, are two veterans who have lived this truth. But thanks to Valor Point Domiciliary for Homeless Veterans in south Lakewood, part of the Veterans Affairs Eastern Colorado Health Care System, both men are working toward a better future.

“I’ve been here before and successfully progressed through the program,” said Mike, who served in the Navy from 1988 through 1991 during the Gulf War. “Because of unforeseen circumstances, I’m back here again.

But they’re helping me with housing.”

Valor Point was opened nearly five years ago thanks to a federal grant aimed at helping homeless veterans.

It’s a satellite of the Veterans Affairs facilities in downtown Denver, and is part of the continuum of care veterans have access to after their service

“We’re a piece of the puzzle for veterans in need,” said Dr. Thomas Kinney, program manager at Valor Point.

“We’re one of about 230 Residential Rehabilitation Treatment Program facilities around the country that offer a variety of services to veterans.”

The number of homeless veterans

in Colorado is about 1,181, according to the 2016 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s annual report on homelessness, which was an increase of 231 veterans from 2015.

“We really try to personalize their time here, so it’s however long they need to find a job and place to live,” Kinney said. “While they’re here, they have access to help like social workers, mental health experts, physical and art therapists, and employment and housing liaisons.”

The facility has a gym, art studio with a kiln, and cafeteria and gathering area for their residents.

High housing costs are a major barrier for many veterans, and many also have problems getting the funds for first and last month’s rent, or the references required on an apartment application, Kinney added.

“One thing that really helps veterans once they are looking for a place to live is scatter site housing, which means formerly homeless veterans are spread out in the community, instead of all housed in one place,” he said. “This allows them to integrate into their community and feel like they’re a

Opinions divided on ‘scraping’ in older neighborhoods Old housing stock makes way for larger new homes

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Scrape-offs — homes demolished and replaced with larger, newer ones by developers — have remade vast swaths of Denver in recent years, with hundreds popping up in trendy neighborhoods like Highland, LoHi and Washington Park.

Now, as land prices skyrocket in posh parts of Denver, the controversial practice is beginning to move into the suburbs.

Englewood, which issued only two demolition permits in 2012, has seen houses scraped at breakneck pace in recent years, with 75 demolition permits issued since the beginning of 2015.

Though the process of replacing single-family homes with often much larger stock has gotten less attention than gargantuan new apartment complexes, city planners are taking notice.

Scrape-offs — older houses demolished and replaced by developers — are making their way from Denver into the suburbs. This duplex on S. Elati St. in Englewood, built by developer Gilda Zaragoza, replaced a 1950s bungalow with a towering pair of homes worth a cumulative $1.3 million.

DAVID GILBERT Pushback Many of the scrapes are multi-family units, said Rick Muriby, Golden’s planning director.

“People feel they’re detrimental to the area,” Muriby said. “A lot of the existing pattern has been single-family housing. When you introduce

multiple units at a larger size, that’s when people push back.”

Scrape-offs do little to help the need for workforce and starter housing, Muriby said.

“These tend to be luxury units,” Muriby said. “We’re talking about $750,000 for a townhome. People ask who’s

affording them, but obviously somebody is. It’s hard to stop market forces.”

The rise in adjacent property values associated with scrape-offs can be a doubleedged sword, said Brad Evans, a local housing activist and administrator of Denver FUGLY, a Facebook page where

Celebration planned to bid farewell to Rosier STAFF REPORT

A farewell celebration for Jefferson County Commissioner Donald Rosier is planned for Jan. 11 in Hearing Room 1 at the Administration and Courts Facility, 100 Jefferson County Parkway.

The program begins at 10:30 a.m., and a reception in the atrium will follow.

Rosier is resigning from the Board of County Commissioners to become the general manager of the Sterling Range Community Authority Board.

He was first elected commissioner in 2010 and then re-elected for a second four-year term in 2014. He is termlimited, so he would have ended his service in 2018.

income, that can be a real problem.”

Renters in neighborhoods with lots of scrapes can fare even worse, Evans said.

“There’s not a lot of help for people who have been there long-term,” Evans said. “If people don’t own, they’re out. Renters get bumped out and now they’re driving farther, and traffic gets worse. If a thousand people who could walk or bike to work start driving, that’s a thousand more cars on the road.”

Scraping by To developers, scrape-offs are a boon to neighborhoods with aging housing stock that is often smaller than current consumer demands.

“The homes that are in the neighborhoods that people want to live in are not suitable for today’s lifestyles or energy requirements or transportation needs or aging-in-place needs,” said Dave Jackson of Jackson Design Build, which has built scrape-offs around the metro area. “We’re replacing it with current modern architecture. The prior architecture is often an 800-square-foot ranch. When you have to pay half a million dollars for that piece of ground, you can’t build an 800-square-foot ranch on it. It can be razed and replaced with a three- or four-plex.”

Jackson acknowledges that scrapeoffs can change the feel of a neighborhood.

“We’re seeing a generational turnover, and there are a lot of people who like contemporary styles and those who don’t,” Jackson said.

“Some people would call it gentrification. I don’t know. I’m really not a scholar. Some see it as revitalizing old neighborhoods, some people see it as people being pushed out, and that’s true. It’s happening.”

Much of the criticism around scrape-offs on the Denver FUGLY page centers around the aesthetics of scrape-offs, which are often

of a new architectural style called Transitional Urban Contemporary, typified by a boxy appearance and often bright colors.

“Some people hate them, and I’m aware of that,” said Gilda Zaragoza, a developer who has built 10 of Englewood’s new homes, and has eight more currently in the works.

“But they tend to sell faster than traditional homes.”

Zaragoza said the size demands of modern buyers can push the margins of a lot.

“They’re trying to maximize the square footage of these homes on a smaller lot, and that does sacrifice some of the yard,” Zaragoza said.

“It’s challenging trying to have a yard, garage, and as much square footage as possible.”

Zaragoza sees what she does as a labor of love.

“I’m trying to provide a good home to families,” Zaragoza said. “I want to build a good product that helps the town. I’m trying to help property values. I hope people see that a lot of passion goes into it.”

Zaragoza said she determines where to buy and build by looking at a block’s potential for further scrapes in the future. Though much of her activity in Englewood — and those of other scrape-off developers — have been focused on the town’s northern border with Denver, she recently completed a home south of Hampden on South Elati Street in which she bought a two-bedroom, 720-square-foot bungalow built in 1953 and replaced it with a towering duplex, each side of which features four bedrooms and four bathrooms, and is for sale for $645,000 per side.

Does Zaragoza want to see all of Englewood scraped?

“Well, there are a lot of older homes that won’t be scraped because the lot sizes are too small,” Zaragoza said. “But I think Englewood is a wonderful town now. The reality is that this is happening because of demand. As long as people want to move here and want these products, developments will continue to happen.”

A look back at the top issues in Jefferson County Public Schools in 2017

YEAR in Review

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Despite small raise, teacher pay continues to lag With the failure of the $33 million mill levy override and $535 million bond package that the Jefferson County Schools Board of Education presented to voters Nov. 8, 2016, teacher compensation once again was brought to the forefront of issues concerning the district. The board named it as a top priority going into the this years budget.

In Jeffco, the average teacher salary for 2017-17 was $54,923, which is lower than three of the five surrounding districts. The lack in compensation potentially making it hard for the district to attract and retain quality teachers.

The district later identified $11 million in reductions from central staff and services, reclassifying spending as well as reducing budget items to match recent spending levels and an additional $9 million in retirement savings to try and find additional funds for teacher pay.

In May, The Jeffco Board of Education and the Jefferson County Education Association agreed on a new contract which provides steps and levels for teachers with demonstrated effective performance and a 2 percent cost-of-living increase.

The $20 million was used to address pay for paraprofessionals and step raises for teachers, but fell short of the regional competitiveness the district had hoped for.

Stober Elementary School parents Gail and Cody Browyer listen to the Jeffco Board of Education discuss school closures at the Jan. 26 board meeting. Stober was one of five schools being considered for closure as a budget cut strategy, though only Pleasant View ended up being closed.

SHANNA FORTIER Board threatens to close five elementary school, four saved In an attempt to find $20 million for increased teacher compensation, the Jeffco Board of Education targeted five schools for possible closure.

Closing all five elementary schools would have given the school district an ongoing savings of $3.5 million.

Peck Elementary in Arvada, Pennington Elementary in Wheat Ridge, Stober Elementary in Lakewood, Swanson Elementary in Arvada, and Pleasant View Elementary School in Golden were all named as schools that could potentially close. In February, the board voted to only close Pleasant View.

Just closing Pleasant View — a school repeatedly listed for potential closure — will save the district $662,742 each year.

District officials cited low enrollment, at its lowest since 2000, and aging building conditions as main reasons to close Pleasant View, which shut its doors for good on May 23.

During the closing ceremony, each attendee pinned on a different colored ribbon to represent his or her connection to the school: Students and alumni wore teal, family members royal blue. Current and retired staff members wore gold, school board representatives yellow stripes. School volunteers had a solid yellow ribbon, caring community members white.

Pleasant View’s preschool also closed.

The school district’s records show that 276 students attended Pleasant View at some point during the last school year. With the start of the 201718 school year, 230 of them are now attending other Jeffco Public Schools this year. The majority are at Shelton, Welchester and Kyffin elementary schools in Golden. About 60 students are spread out among 30 other schools.

And 23 students entered Bell Middle School.The majority of Pleasant View’s teachers joined students at

either Welchester or Shelton, and the others have obtained within the district.

Some 75 students are attending Shelton, 420 Crawford St., where total enrollment is 560, and about 50 students are at Welchester, 13000 W. 10th Ave., which has 309 students.

Jeffco schools Superintendent Jason Glass headed a public meeting hosted by the district on Dec. 5 at the Pleasant View campus in Golden, to find out what the community’s preferences are for the future of the building.

The school district owns the property, so it can retain ownership of it, or put it on the market for sale. The district has proposed a few potential uses, including an early childhood education center, domestic violence resource center, or use as a charter school.

District seeks new leadership, hires Dr. Jason Glass as superintendent The Jeffco Board of Education voted in early January not to renew Superintendent Dan McMinimee’s contract and launch a national search for his

replacement.

McMinimee became superintendent of Jeffco Schools in July 2014, replacing longtime Superintendent Cindy Stevenson. He was selected on a 3-2 vote, with the support of Ken Witt, Julie Williams and John Newkirk. Those three board members, all elected in 2013 on a conservative reform platform, were later the target of a successful recall campaign in 2015, during which McMinimee’s hiring became an issue.

McMinimee’s contract with Jeffco Schools — which lists his base salary as $220,000 with up to an additional $40,000 of performance pay bonuses — was set to expire June 30.

Board members voiced that their decision to pursue a national search does not reflect McMinimee’s performance, however, they are not confident his leadership is the leadership they want moving the district forward.

To assist in its national search, the district has hired Ray and Associates, Inc., and Iowa-based company that specializes in educational executive leadership searches and set a base salary for its new superintendent at $300,000.

Throughout February, the district held 13 stakeholder focus groups, five community and six staff forums, and conducted a superintendent profile survey.

In March, McMinimee stepped down from his position as superintendent.

In April, he took a job as the next superintendent for New America School in Colorado, a public charter high school network that serves primarily immigrant students and their families.

The superintendent search in Jeffco continued, as the field of 69 applicants was winnowed down to 11 top candidates.

Wheat Ridge 2017: Developments rise and hail falls YEAR in Review

It was a year of change for Wheat Ridge, with several old friends of the city departing, and new developments on the horizon.

Here, in no particular order, is a roundup of the stories that graced the Wheat Ridge Transcript’s pages this year.

Liquor store scuffles Wheat Ridge liquor giant Applejack Wine & Spirits ended up at the center of a freedom of information lawsuit this year. A Boulder competitor asked the city of Wheat Ridge for some public information about Applejacks, and got more than they bargained for, when the city accidentally revealed more information than it should have.

The excess information was described in court filings as “ highly sensitive personal and commercial information.”

The ensuing legal wrangling between Applejacks, the competitor and the city was named one of the top 10 public information stories of the year by the Colorado Freedom of Information Coalition, which was kind enough to help the Transcript cover the story.

Applejack initially won a temporary restraining order, requiring the competitor to give all of the documents to the court and “make no use” of the information contained within them. The parties eventually agreed to a confidential settlement, the details of which are perhaps ironically all redacted from the public record.

District dissatisfaction Several stories in this year’s paper point to a larger issue that will certainly continue to develop in 2018: The Wheat Ridge community’s growing frustration with the Jefferson County School District.

There was the inclusion of Pennington Elementary in Wheat Ridge on the list of five schools up for potential closure announced in January of 2017.

The Pennington neighborhood had to hold its breath until Feb. 9, 2017, when the board voted 4-1 to remove it from the list of potential closures.

Then there was the ongoing concern about the shifting of sixth graders to middle schools. Though other portions of the district have already moved to such a model, community concern still seems high for some parents that will now see their children moved up to Everitt Middle School a year earlier than they thought.

The biggest question mark concerning the community’s relationship with

JASON ROGERS the district office is the future funding of Wheat Ridge High School’s vaunted Gifted and Talented (GT) program, after the district announced that it would no longer fund it directly, to the sum of $150,000. Moving forward, the school is expected to pay for the Gifted and Talented program out of its own operating budget, meaning less money for other programs and students.

The Farmers’ longtime Principal Griff Wirth and Assistant Principal Ken Trager, and Athletic Director Nick DeSimone all retired at the end of the 2016-2017 school year, making the school’s future relationship with the district all the more uncertain.

Mike Stites, son of the late Frank Stites, hugs one of the many folks who came to pay their respects to the Stites family during a celebration of life ceremony, Feb. 4., at Stites Park.

GLENN WALLACE Passing of dear friends Former Mayor Hank Stites died on Jan. 31 at the age of 90 from stroke complications.

According to his son Mike Stites, even after the initial stroke on Jan. 6 forced Hank into the hospital, he was still joking around with the nurses about the time the city named a park after him, thinking he had already died.

That park — Stites Park at 29th Avenue and Newland Street — served as a fitting location for the Wheat Ridge community to say farewell to Frank Stites during a Feb. 4 celebration-of-

life ceremony.

Stites was elected mayor of Wheat Ridge five times. He also served on the city’s parks and water board. Stites also served on the Board of Directors for Lakeside National Bank, was president of the Rocky Mountain Tire Dealers Association, president of the Wheat Ridge Lions Club and a charter member of the Wheat Ridge Chamber of Commerce.

“The city’s lost a great guy,” former Wheat Ridge Mayor Joyce Jay said after the ceremony. “Active to the end.”

Another longtime Wheat Ridge luminary that passed away in 2017 was newsman John Tracy.

Tracy, 73, died Aug. 1 after being hospitalized for the past two weeks for a variety of health problems.

He entered the newspaper industry in 1973 at the age of 30, with Sentinel newspapers, which published the Transcript at the time. Later, Tracy and business partner Bill Armstrong started their own newspapers with separate editions covering Lakewood, Green Mountain, Applewood and Wheat Ridge.The two sold them in 1980. He was also one of the originators of the Applewood Business Association.

In his time Tracy received much recognition and a litany of awards from various community organizations, including the Golden Rotary Club and the Golden Chamber of Commerce.

He was one of the West Chamber’s original lifetime members, and two years ago, he was added to the organization’s hall of fame.

Heck of a hailstorm The hailstorm that swept through much of the Denver metro area about 3 p.m. on May 8 caused widespread damage, particularly in Jefferson County. The National Weather Service reports nearly three inches of hail fell near Lutheran Hospital in Wheat Ridge during the brief storm.

The Colorado Mills mall shut down in the aftermath of the hailstorm, as roof damage and shattered skylights, followed by considerable rain in the days that followed, forced the closure of the mall for half a year. To this day,

Pennington Elementary student Emilie Ryken, 9, gets her face painted at the 2017 Carnation Festival.

SHANNA FORTIER store and interior repairs continue there.

Damage was widespread across the Denver metro area, but seemed especially concentrated near Wheat Ridge.

City Manager Patrick Goff said that virtually every car in the Wheat Ridge City Hall parking lot was damaged.

But even after the initial storm, there was a secondary storm of roofing and building repair permits that the city had to weather. The sheer number of permit and roof inspection requests overwhelmed city services. Goff said he can understand the frustration, but the city has a responsibility to maintain the quality and thoroughness of the permitting process for the public’s sake.

The sheer number of roofs in need of repair help explain the backlog: A total of 6,655 roofing inspections were done since the hail storm, when the city dealt with only 231 in all of 2016.

City staffers were still doing more than 50 roof inspections a week, into December, according to the city treasurer’s reports.

Ongoing growth Development and redevelopment continued at a swift clip for the city in 2017.

Ten months after announcing a private-public partnership to renovate the dilapidated Fruitdale School, officials held a ribbon-cutting ceremony and open house.

“We’re celebrating 134 years of Fruitdale history today,” Jim Hartman, the developer, said at the ceremony Thursday, Oct. 19.

The Fruitdale Lofts is the rebirth of a graffiti-riddled, blighted former school and historic structure to 16 apartment units with low-water-usage and edible landscaping, solar power and deed-restricted rent prices to revitalize the historically relevant structure.

The land for the school was donated in 1883, where a one-room cabin was built for students in an agriculturerich area. In 1901, a new school building was erected and named Fruitdale SEE WHEAT RIDGE, P23

Then, later in the year, about 75 members of the Cody Family traveled from across the U.S., Canada and as far as England to gather in Golden July 27-30 for a family reunion. They participated in the activities for Buffalo Bill Days, an annual threeday celebration in downtown Golden which took place July 27-30 this year, and a special wreath laying ceremony on July 28 at the Buffalo Bill Museum and Grave.

Boettcher Mansion birthday — Boettcher Mansion on Lookout Mountain also celebrated a 100th anniversary in 2017.

Charles Boettcher, a German immigrant who became a prominent Colorado business entrepreneur, built the mansion to serve as a family summer home and seasonal hunting lodge. He called his retreat Lorraine Lodge, and, built with native stone and timber, it was completed in 1917.

Boettcher died in 1948, but in the 1960s, his beloved granddaughter Charline Breeden purchased the property from the estate, and willed it to Jefferson County upon her death in the late 1960s.

In 1975, the mansion was renovated and opened as the Jefferson County Conference and Nature Center. It was renamed Boettcher Mansion in the late 1980s, and was listed on the National Register of Historical Places

as an arts and crafts style landmark in 1986.

A special community celebration of the mansion’s 100 years took place on July 27.

Mother Cabrini — Dec. 22 marked the 100th anniversary of the death of Mother Cabrini, the patron saint of immigrants. She is known for her dedication of caring for the poor, uneducated, sick, abandoned, and especially, Italian immigrants.

In 1904, Mother Cabrini established the Queen of Heaven Orphanage for girls in Denver. She also opened a girls summer camp, that opened circa 1912.

Although no longer a summer camp for girls, the Mother Cabrini Shrine still hosts individual and group retreats, and people who visit the shrine for mass or as a quiet, peaceful getaway place to pray, meditate or reflect.

Hellos and farewells to county faces Donald Rosier — Jefferson County Commissioner Donald Rosier is vacating his county commissioner seat one year early to become the general manager of the Sterling Ranch Community Authority Board.

Rosier, a Republican, represents District Three, which is the southern part of Jefferson County. He was elected to the seat in 2010 and re-elected to serve another four years in 2014.

He is term limited next year.

The vacant position will be filled by the Vacancy Committee of the Jefferson County Republican Party.

That person will serve the county alongside Republican Libby Szabo, who is chair of the Board of County

A peek inside ‘Anthony’s Closet’ Hospital staff organize effort to clothe patients

HOW TO HELP Anyone who would like to contribute clothing, especially winter wear and unopened packages of socks and underwear, should contact Janet Thomas, RN administrative manager at the hospital, at 720-321-7230.

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Oftentimes when a patient finds themselves at the hospital, there’s not a lot of time for planning.

“I was discharging a patient who didn’t have any support here locally, he even was going to have to take a cab when he left here,” remembered Kellie Costanza, a registered nurse from the Neuro-Trauma Intensive Care Unit at St. Anthony. “He was traveling from out of town when his trauma injury brought him to St. Anthony Hospital.

As a trauma patient his clothes had to be cut off, so he had nothing to leave with and no one to bring him anything.”

Emergencies sometimes require clothes to be cut off, and if a patient is homeless, they may not have many clothes to begin with.

“In these kinds of situations, we don’t want to send patients out with nothing on their backs but their hospital gown,” said Edwin Cook, clinical nurse manager for the Medical-Surgical unit.

“We want to be there for all the patient’s needs, and find a way for them to have options when they come here,” added Janet Thomas, RN administrative manager at the hospital.

To that end, Cook and Thomas took a project from the hospital’s leadership development program, and

Staff at St. Anthony Hospital spent six months collecting and organizing donated clothing for “Anthony’s Closet,” which is available to patients who need clothing either because the clothes they were wearing were too damaged, or because they are homeless and don’t have any spare clothes.

PHOTO COURTESY OF ST. ANTHONY’S HOSPITAL turned it into a way to help patients in need through the creation of “Anthony’s Closet.” As the name implies, it’s a closet in the NeuroTrauma ICU (on the hospital’s second floor) that holds donated clothing and shoes for adult men and women.

“We had some of these items before, but they were spread out and really disorganized,” Cook explained. “Opening the closet was like diving into a garage sale.”

When trying to help her patient, Costanza was able to provide some clothes, even if it wasn’t the best fit.

“At the time I went to the closet all we had stocked were extra-large sizes but I was still able to find something that worked,” Costanza said. “I got him a pair of sandals and a shirt. He wore some hospital pants, but he still

appreciated everything. The only other alternative would have been a hospital gown.”

Now nurses and staff who are preparing to discharge a patient who is need of clothing can go to this closet, and find everything from pants and shirts to socks and shoes. Everything is now organized by size for best use, and there’s a system in place for replenishing the closet when stock runs low.

“Anthony’s closet is awesome. While it is located on the floor that I work on, staff use it from all around the hospital,” Costanza said. “I think it really is a necessity here and it helps a lot of people. Considering this was once just an unused closet, I think it is really great that we are putting it to good use and that our staff are the ones that fill it.”

All the items are donated by hospital staff, Thomas explained, with a particular emphasis on warm clothing as winter draws nearer.

“We’re hoping this model can catch on at other hospitals and businesses,” she added. “It was a six month project to get it all organized, but now nurses have it to help our patients in need.”

Life is better with friends.

Death toll creates urgency in fight against opioid abuse Heroin, pills draw more people into lethal lifestyle

BY TABATHA DEANS STEWART TSTEWART@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

One Coloradan died approximately every 27 hours on average from a prescription opioid-related overdose in 2015, according to Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment data. While that death toll dropped by 9 percent in 2016, the number of heroin-related overdose deaths increased 43 percent.

“Right now, we’re seeing about 60 percent of overdose deaths due to pills, with about 40 percent due to heroin,” said Robert Valuck, director of the Colorado Consortium for Prescription Drug Abuse Prevention. “Heroin is making a comeback.”

“Overdose deaths across the nation have doubled in the past 15 years,” said Lindsey Myers, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s violence and injury prevention branch chief.

The increase in deaths over the long term has led lawmakers in all states to examine ways to combat the problem.

Colorado’s legislative Opioid and Other Substance Use Disorders Interim Study Committee recently voted to move forward with a six-bill package of legislation, aimed to help treat, prevent and intervene if possible when opioid addiction occurs.

Will the legislation help? The following is a look at what some area healthcare professionals have to say.

• One bill proposes to “create training programs for health professionals, law enforcement and at-risk communities

ABOUT OPIOIDS What is an opioid?

Opioids are a class of drugs that include the illegal drug heroin, synthetic drugs such as fentanyl, and pain relievers available legally by prescription, such as oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine, morphine and many others.

(Source: National Institute of Drug Abuse) What are signs of abuse?

According to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment: • Any use of heroin is considered abuse.

• Taking prescription pain medications after the pain is gone.

• Seeking prescriptions for a condition you no longer have.

• Taking pills prescribed for someone else. for safe opioid prescribing, medicationassisted treatment and overdose prevention.”

“Historically, doctors refer patients out for substance-abuse disorders,” Valuck said. “We really need doctors and physician assistants to take responsibility for their patients, and treat their disorder as they would any other disease.”

According to Valuck, physicians and health-care providers could benefit from learning more about medicationassisted treatment and utilizing that treatment with their patients.

• Another bill would limit most opioid prescriptions to a seven-day supply for acute conditions, and, in many cases, mandate that medical professionals check the Prescription Drug Monitoring Program database before writing prescription refills.

Dr. John Douglas, executive director of the Tri-County Health Department, which serves Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties, said restricting

prescriptions for acute conditions could be effective.

“I actually think it’s a very good idea.

The vast majority of acute pain won’t need more than seven days (worth of treatment),” Douglas said. “Sometimes, not even that is necessary. Combining certain drugs, which are not opiates, can sometimes work better.”

The part of the bill that would require medical professionals to check the PDMP database could pose a problem, according to Myers. Pharmacists are required to update the system every time they fill a prescription for narcotics, so in theory every physician could pull up their patient and assess their history.

In reality, the current PDMP system is underutilized by physicians because it is cumbersome and takes too much time to deliver the information, Myers said.

“I think providers want to use the system, but it’s underutilized in Colorado,” she said. “The main reason is it is a system that lives outside the workflow of providers. But we are pilot testing ways to make the system easier to incorporate into records.”

• A third bill would pave the way for a pilot project for a supervised injection facility in Denver.

Offering a safe place, supervised by medical professionals, for addicts to inject may seem radical, but according to Valuck, such places work.

“Supervised injection facilities work, we are in support of them,” he said. “First and foremost, these are human beings. Everyone knows someone with a substance use disorder. Secondly, SIFs decrease the spread of disease, such as HIV and hepatitis. These diseases put first

responders and physicians at risk.”

Tri-County Health already supports a syringe-access facility in Aurora, which has served about 150 clients within its first year. The program is a street-based program, and those with substanceabuse disorders can exchange dirty needles for clean ones, Douglas said.

• Another of the bills proposes to expand the Colorado Health Services Corps program. The program currently includes financial incentives for health care professionals who agree to work in underserved areas. Historically, the program has only included physicians.

“It would now include substance abuse counselors through Colorado Health Services Corps,” Myers said.

“The new bill would expand program to incentivize people to move and work in areas where there are not addiction counselors.”

• A fifth measure would significantly increase access to residential treatment to qualifying people with substance-use disorders.

One of the biggest problems is a lack of treatment for substance-abuse disorders, Valuck said.

“We are at about an 85 percent treatment gap,” Valuck said. “The state would have to come up with money to help pay for residential treatment.”

• The final bill would improve “priorauthorization” standards to ensure insurance companies and Medicaid give timely approval for medicationassisted treatment. This bill also aims to reduce copays for physical therapy, acupuncture and chiropractic alternatives to narcotics.

“This is really a good start,” Valuck said. “We have to shift the language, and the way we think of people with substance-use disorders.”

Amid opioid epidemic, six proposals could fight trend Supervised-injection facility, Medicaid and private insurance changes among suggestions

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When state Rep. Brittany Pettersen was a child, her day started with finding and hiding her mother’s keys, pouring out her alcohol and pills, and then going to school. She’d get home, and she’d do it all over again.

“It took me probably, maybe being 9 years old, to recognize that my mom was very different from most parents,” said Pettersen, a Democrat representing the Lakewood area.

She was concerned about her mom, but she didn’t know what to do.

Her after-school routine grew to include checking to see whether her mom was breathing.

Pettersen’s mom, Stacy, had an opioid addiction from the time she was about 33. After being overprescribed for her back pain, she developed a dependency that escalated to heroin use when another doctor cut her prescription. After several recent trips to the ER from overdosing, she finally asked for help — the words Pettersen said she waited 29 years to hear.

She was far from alone in her fears. Colorado saw 108 opioid-related deaths — involving prescription

drugs, heroin or both — in 1999, according to the Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment.

In 2016, in that same category, the state saw a death count of 504.

Now, Colorado legislators are putting forth six bills to make sure opioid substance abuse doesn’t progress that far. Spearheaded by Pettersen, the Opioid and Other Substance Use Disorders Interim Study Committee aims to tackle the problem from all sides: in the medical world, the law-enforcement field, the healthcare industry and — perhaps most directly — where people inject drugs.

Safe place amid the stigma The most visible effort, if passed, would allow a pilot project for a supervised injection facility — where people with substance-use disorders can safely inject drugs — in Denver.

No other place in the United States has such a facility, according to the Colorado Legislative Council Staff, but there are 100 of them in 66 cities among nine countries, said committee member state Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge.

Health professionals would oversee the facility, making sure to reverse overdoses if they happen, Pettersen said. They’ll also be able to refer people to resources to beat their substance-use disorder.

“This is about keeping people alive today, bringing them out of the shadows and increasing the likelihood

they’ll get treatment,” Pettersen said.

Some in the business and law-enforcement communities may be concerned about the facility normalizing drug use, Jahn said, but to her, the apprehension is misplaced — localizing drug use to one safe area could help make businesses, parks and alleyways more safe, she said.

“Nothing is gonna impact a business more than when someone walks in for coffee and they walk into the bathroom and find someone dead,” Jahn said.

“You want your kids (passing) used needles on their way to school?” she added.

Committee member state Rep. Chris Kennedy, D-Lakewood, said the business community has been “wildly supportive” of the idea, because of the problem of people overdosing in bathrooms.

The facility would also reduce the spread of HIV and hepatitis C, Pettersen said.

“You and I are never going to go do heroin (just) because this place exists,” she added.

Going to the source The proposals would also require health practitioners to check a database that could prevent writing dangerous prescription refills and create training programs to help them better understand the opioid issue.

ing and dispensing medications, and about patients. Such a statewide database exists in nearly all states, according to the PDMP Training and Technical Assistance Center, but it’s not mandatory for doctors in Colorado to check it before writing prescription refills.

It would answer questions like, “Do we have someone at risk of addiction, or are they addicted? Are they doctorshopping?” Jahn said, using a term for when patients go to multiple doctors seeking more drugs.

For initial prescriptions, people with acute conditions — getting a tooth pulled, or other short-term issues — would be limited to a seven-day supply of pills for one prescription, in most cases. Chronic, or long-term, conditions would be among the exceptions, Jahn said.

Committee member state Sen. Jack Tate, R-Centennial, said the problem in his district is a latent supply of opioids.

“My sense is we don’t have as high an addict population as many (areas),” Tate said.

But the supply in people’s cabinets, waiting to be grabbed by teenagers or otherwise misused, is the danger, he said.

The proposals are expected to direct a research center at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora to develop best practices for training medical professionals how to safely prescribe drugs, as well as how to disseminate that training, Jahn said. That research center for substance-use disorder prevention at that campus was green-lighted by Senate Bill 17-193 in May — Pettersen and Jahn were main drivers — but this proposal reiterates its goals, Jahn said.

Filling treatment gaps About a year and a half ago, Stacy Pettersen, 63, experienced a string of trips to the emergency room from overdosing and ended up in the intensive-care unit, her daughter said. Stacy finally asked for help with her condition, but was told that Medicaid doesn’t cover treatment.

“We’re spending tens of thousands of dollars keeping people alive and then denying them the help they need to get better,” Brittany Pettersen said.

“So that was devastating and I think highlighted for me the enormous gap we have in our system.”

In 2015, at least 87 of Colorado’s overdoses from prescription opioids alone — not including heroin — happened to Medicaid recipients, according to state data. That makes getting Medicaid recipients resi-

“We’re spending tens of thousands of dollars keeping people alive and then denying them the help they need to get better,”

A bipartisan group of 10 state lawmakers called the Opioid and Other Substance Use Disorders Interim Study Committee worked from July to October putting together six bills for consideration in the coming year. In part, the bills would: • Bill A — Direct a research center at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus to design training for health professionals, law enforcement and at-risk communities for safe opioid prescription, treatment and overdose prevention. Also would create the Opioid and Other Substance Use Disorders Study Committee as an ongoing year-round entity through July 1, 2020, to continue work on the issue.

• Bill B — In many cases, require medical professionals to check a database about their patients and medications before writing refill prescriptions.

• Bill C — Allow supervisedinjection facilities and allow for a pilot program for such places, where people with substance-use disorders can safely inject and be referred to treatment.

• Bill D — Bolster financial help for health-care professionals who choose to work in underserved areas through the Colorado Health Service Corps program.

• Bill E — Expand access to inpatient and residential — also called live-in — substance-abuse treatment, adding it as a benefit under the state Medicaid program.

• Bill F — Speed up requests for medication-assisted treatment for substance-use disorders under Medicaid and private insurance so patients don’t go back to using opioids while waiting for treatment.

Interim committees meet while the Legislature is not in regular session, the part of the year when it passes bills. The group unianmously voted for all bills to move forward — aside from Bill B (9-1 vote) and Bill F (7-3 vote) — to the Legislative Council, another group of lawmakers that reviews them before they can be introduced to be considered by the state House and Senate.

That council approved the bills to move forward Nov. 15. The regular session starts Jan. 10.

WHO’S MAKING THE PUSH? The Colorado state lawmakers behind the proposals make up the Opioid and Other Substance Use Disorders Interim Study Committee. They are: • Rep. Brittany Pettersen, D-Lakewood, chair • Sen. Kent Lambert, R-Colorado Springs, vice chair • Rep. Perry Buck, R-Windsor • Sen. Cheri Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge • Rep. Chris Kennedy, D-Lakewood • Sen. Irene Aguilar, D-Denver • Former Rep. Clarice Navarro, R-Pueblo • Rep. Jonathan Singer, D-Longmont • Sen. Kevin Priola, R-Henderson • Sen. Jack Tate, R-Centennial potentially saving lives.”

Lawmakers’ proposals include directing the Anschutz Medical Campus’s research center to create training for officers on how to better use naloxone — Narcan is its brand name — in responding to overdose situations.

Jahn also said she believes crime would be reduced by creating supervised injection facilities because more people would have access to treatment.

A person “would not have stolen all these goods if (they) didn’t have an addiction (they) needed to feed,” Jahn said, speaking hypothetically. Law enforcement officials in Wheat Ridge, other Jefferson County areas and Denver have told her that increases in property crimes have been tied to substance-abuse disorders. Police in Englewood and Littleton have made similar observations, referencing opioids.

“If they were able to get it more easily, or get it at all, we have a better chance,” Jahn said. “People don’t want to live like this.”

End of a journey Stacy Pettersen’s lack of Medicaid-covered care left

her daughter with few options.

People Brittany Pettersen worked with to address the state’s opioid issue recommended an involuntary commitment process — by which she’d receive a court order for her mother to be taken to paid-for treatment.

Stacy Pettersen recently began a program at a rehabilitation center after two months in a program where she underwent detox.

In early 2018, she’s expected to complete her rehab program, and Pettersen said her mom is learning to live again. At a dinner with family, relatives went around the table and said what they were grateful for, and everyone said they were thankful for her.

“It was very emotional,” Pettersen, 36, said. “To have her there and sober and be alive, and how every day is the best day ... it’s like she’s been frozen for 29 years.

That’s a lot to deal with, the years that have been lost, but she’s thankful to be alive.

“For the first time in 29 years,” Pettersen said, “I have my mom in my life.”

My brothers and sisters in the Korean art of Taekwondo instantly recognized that list I just … er, listed. Those are the tenets of Taekwondo.

What’s a tenet? A tenet is a belief, a characteristic, a habit or a behavior that defines an adherent of a system of belief. Notice, for instance, in all of those tenets of an ancient martial art, there

is no mention of strength, or of victory, or of dominance — the real art of Taekwondo is internal.

It is about learning to govern your own character and your own actions and reactions to the world around you.

Which is good, because, as I’m (slowly) growing older, then victory and strength and stuff like that is fleeting. At any rate…

I have learned through the study of the art that tenets are a useful feature of any behavior.

My columnist-colleague, Andrea, likes to have “words of the year,” which are, basically, like having tenets. So, may I be so bold as to join her and suggest a handful of tenets to govern the year that is about to be 2018.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Some schooling suggestions Jeffco School Superintendent Glass’ calls, in his monthly op-ed, “Generations” visions, calling for public comment, which follow.

There’s need for at least a year of Latin, the best preparation for understanding of languages, including English.

Writing ability is necessary for every profession.

Another is plane geometry, whereby theorems develop the ability to reason, including deductive thinking.

It’s difficult to discuss economic matters with recent graduates. The curriculum in senior social studies fails to adequately cover basic free market economics. Let’s have a leg up on this national intentional dumb-down into economic illiteracy, which has resulted in disruptive nonsense like Bernie Sanders, Obama, more socialism, etc.

Without these exposures, we prepare our youth for careers in the collective.

Fly fishing show highlights a rising sport

F

ly fishing isn’t Part of the show, it IS the show!” That is what the show’s promotional materials proclaim and that makes the Jan. 5-7 event at the Denver Mart, 58th Avenue and I-25, such a special outdoors happening.

The Fly Fishing Show has become a popular annual fishing attraction OUTDOOR for Front Range fly LIVING anglers. And the show’s interest is growing.

Maybe you have not tried casting a fly line in Colorado? Or perhaps you enjoy other fishing pursuits and assume fly fishing is an interest for the select few.

Ron Hellbusch Between 2000 and 2014 fishing license sales increased from 630,000 and 765,000, with most of that increase coming from new fly fishing anglers.

Nationwide fishing license sales have increased by 11 percent and fishing tackle sales are up 16 percent.

Fly fishing is the fastest growing fresh water angling interest. It is estimated there are 50 million fly fishing anglers in all 50 states. Interestingly this appears to exceed the numbers who play golf (21 million) and tennis -(13 million).

Trout Unlimited, Inc. has played a big role with US Fish & Wild Service and the various states wildlife and fishery agencies in preserving and restoring river and stream waters.

would do much better to reclaim the ability to stop, to consider, and to think, before we immediately reach for the anger button? We’re better than this.

2. Humor. If there is one thing that the world around us is absolutely worthy of, it is mockery. Every time I think we’ve reached “peak ridiculousness,” something happens which is even more ridiculous. Somehow, it has to be within our ability to see it all and laugh at it, and at ourselves. If we don’t, I don’t see how we can possibly survive.

3. Grace. My daughter, the 21-year old, is a dancer, and, when the music starts, she moves in a way that is beyond my comprehension. She turns her body into a moving representation of expressive art, and the coordina-

Colorado Parks & Wildlife have has been leaders in this growing angling interest in the Mile High State. This agency has provided access to 2,000 lakes and reservoirs and 9,000 miles of river and stream fly fishing waters; 37 of the 42 state parks offer fly fishing opportunities.

The Rocky Mountain Region accounts for 33 percent of national fly fishing gear and tackle sales while in Colorado alone almost $2 million is added to the state’s economy from the fly fishing industry.

The January Denver Fly Fishing Show features a grand door prize to a premier fly fishing destination in northwestern New Mexico on the richly populated San Juan River. The winner can take a friend for three nights with two days of guided fishing. Grand prize trip value is $1,980.

Show times will be 10am-6pm on Friday, 9am to 5:30pm Saturday and 9am to 4:30pm on Sunday.

In addition to vendors who offer high quality gear and experienced advice and suggestions for new or seasoned fly anglers, 19 skill classes will be offered by fly experts covering casting, fly tying, technique elements including nymph fishing, still waters, youth fly fishing, fly tying, streamer strategies and how, where and when to find trout.

Parking is free. Tickets can be purchased at the door or in advance at 814-443-3638 or www.flyfishingshow. com.

tion that it happens with is mind-boggling. She is the embodiment of grace — the ability to change direction and speed with effortlessness. I strive to take life in — with all of its surprises, disappointments, and misdirections — with a fraction of the grace she moves around the stage with. Life is hard, and American life comes with unique challenges (and opportunities): perhaps we can all do it better, together, if we extend a little grace to each other, and if we try to smooth some of the leaps and turns of life for ourselves.

And, by the way, if you’re ever wondering what it would look like to act with grace, just try to picture Princess Dianna or Princess Kate, and not, say, Mariah Carey or the President.

Good luck with 2018. Let’s be careful out there!

The Temptations make a stop in Lone Tree

T Anglers can try their hand at casting a fly rod one of the Denver International Sportsmen’s Expo from Jan. 11 through 14.

BRUCE TARBET.

Sportsmen’s Expo welcomes all Annual event’s offerings reflect a changing state

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

There are many reasons why so many people have been moving to Colorado over the years, but one is certainly the plethora of opportunities for outdoor recreation.

The activity options seem to be ever-diversifying, and for 41 years, the Denver International Sportsmen’s Exposition has been growing with the times.

“The state has been going through major changes, and while we still feature booths and information on hunting and fishing, we’ve had to grow,” said John Kirk, director of communications with International Sportsmen’s Expos.

“The businesses that come here have had to develop new strategies and customers, and we want to showcase them.”

This year’s expo is Jan. 11-14 at the Colorado Convention Center, 700 14th St. in Denver, and features more than 530 companies, from travel and RV companies to fishing and hunting retail and camping gear.

“We’ve been setting up at the expo for 27 years,” said Chuck Prather, with the Wheat Ridge-based Rocky Mountain Angling Club, which provides members exclusive access to about 45 catch-and-release sites in Colorado, New Mexico and Wyoming. “It’s a chance to meet our members and put names to faces.

A lot of friends come by.”

In addition to all the booths, there will also be classroom clinics, a wilderness camp, archery tag, casting ponds, and Colorado Parks and Wildlife Outdoors Pavilion.

“Many of the new people who move to Colorado want to know what kind of activities they can do, how they can do them, and where,” Kirk said. “We want the expo to be a jumping-off point for everyone who comes through.”

It’s also important for the event to promote conver-

“Being outdoors teaches personal responsibility, and teaches us the connections between everything,” he said.

For the businesses who set up shop at the expo, many of which are local and independently owned, it’s a rare opportunity to show off their wares in front of thousands of visitors.

his summer, one of my closest friends got married in a beautiful ceremony in Arvada. I was sitting with friends during the reception, when the DJ pressed play on perhaps one of the most famous guitar intros of all time — The Temptations’ “My Girl.”

It’s been 53 years since the song was first released by the Detroit group, COMING but I’m here to tell you, when ATTRACTIONS “My Girl” is played loud, it still sounds absolutely incredible. And that’s not the only classic The Temptations are responsible for — they also gave the world “Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me),” “Ain’t Too Proud to Beg,” and “Papa Was a Rolling Stone.”

The group, with the curClarke Reader rent lineup of Otis Williams (founder and original member of The Temptations), Ron Tyson, Terry Weeks, Larry Braggs and Willie Greene Jr., will be bringing its sweet sounds to the Lone Tree Arts Center, 10075 Commons St., at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, March 6.

The Motown group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989, released four Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles, and three of their songs are among The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll.

It seems like we’re losing musical icons all the time, and this is an opportunity to see one of the crucial soul groups perform live. Do not miss it.

Start 2018 off with karaoke “American Idol” is returning this year, so prospective singers can get their vocal warmups at Spotlight Karaoke every Thursday from 10 a.m. to close at Tavern Tech Center, 5336 DTC Boulevard, in Greenwood Village.

There are food and drink specials during karaoke, including two-for-one house wine, well drinks and all draft beer, as well as half-priced appetizers.

But the real draw is the karaoke setup, which includes more than 30,000 songs to pick from, as well as state-of-the-art audio, video and lighting. For newbies and old hands alike, it’s the popstar in the making’s dream.

The show brings together a variety of classic fairy-tale characters for a story that is both familiar and modern, with some truly wonderful music.

Tickets begin at $20, and can be purchased at 303-987-7845 or lakewood.showare.com.

A demonstrator teaches a young man the basics of casting a fly rod. Anglers of all skill levels can learn the craft, and get some tips and tricks, during the Denver International Sportsmen’s Expo.

Tennis at The Ogden Tennis, the Denver-based band made up of husband-and-wife duo Alaina Moore and Patrick Riley, have been slowly building up a following since 2010, when they released their debut album, “Cape Dory.”

Last year was perhaps their best to date, with the release of their fourth album, “Yours, Conditionally,” as well as an EP called “We Can Die Happy.” The pair have been sailing enthusiasts for years, and “Yours, Conditionally” was inspired by a trip to the Pacific Ocean. It was also released as the Denver-based Vinyl Me, Please record club’s “Album of the Month.”

Now Tennis will be taking to the stage at 9 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 6, at The Ogden Theatre, 935 E. Colfax Ave. Tickets are available at www.ogdentheatre. com, and fans of astoundingly good indie pop shouldn’t miss the chance to support a local group.

“We do a lot of business when we’re at the expo,” said Leo Lopez, one of the owners of Northglennbased LCL Hunting, which sells custom-made hunting and kitchen knives. “We bring out products to our booth, which people can buy right there.”

Englewood’s 1 Shot Gear, which sells premium hunting gear, including clothing, optics, bags and other gear, also has found tremendous success setting up a booth at the expo.

A front row seat to the Fetterman Fight Many may not have heard of the Fetterman Fight, but it was one of the biggest losses suffered by the U.S. Army in the 1800s.

History buffs can learn more about the battle thanks Dr. John H. Monnett’s Eyewitness to the Fetterman Fight: Indian Views. The event will be from at 4 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 6, at the Lone Tree Hub, 8827 Lone Tree Parkway in Lone Tree, and at 6 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 7, at The Fort Restaurant, 9192 Highway 8 in Morrison.

The fight occurred on Dec. 21, 1866 — during Red Cloud’s War, which was between the Lakota, Northern Cheyenne and Northern Arapaho tribes and the United States in Wyoming and Montana territories from 1866 to 1868. An organized force of 1,500 to 2,000 Oglala Lakota, Northern Cheyenne and Arapaho warriors annihilated a detachment of seventy-nine infantry and cavalry soldiers—among them Capt. William Judd Fetterman.

There were no U.S. Army survivors, so Monnett’s lecture culls information from Lakota and Cheyenne participants.

“We’ve gone for the past four years, and are always very, very busy,” said Zach Snoke, warehouse manager for 1 Shot.

“We all have a passion for hunting, and it’s a great community event for everyone at the expo.”

The name of the expo has become a kind of misnomer, as a result of International Sportsmen’s Expos’ efforts to grow the scope of its community, Kirk said.

“Before these activities were mainly focused on men, but we’re seeing more women, couples and children looking to get started in many of these activities,” he said. “Coming here is like a treasure hunt, where everyone can explore and find something that interests them.”

People who deserve a lot of gratitude are those in the the service industries such as truckers, grocery workers, all LIFELONG in the restaurant businesses including LEARNING take-outs and baker- Esther Macalady ies. How often are they working very early in the morning, late at night, or holidays when we are enjoying a rest?

Thanking Restaurant Workers We can start with restaurant workers. One family teaches their young children to write thank you and other little notes to people who work in the

restaurants they visit. The family takes along paper the size of thank you notes and crayons. The activity also keeps the children occupied and helps practice writing skills.

While waiting, adults help children ages seven and nine write thank you notes to the server and cook. During a holiday they might write a little note that says “Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, thank you, their first names, and add pictures. Then they leave it on their table. The family also teaches children to thank servers for their food and to use “please” with a smile when asking for something.

When the server comes around to ask how everything is, they say “Thank you. This is really good.”

The young children help to clean up their area, organize the used dishes, and pick up anything they drop on the

Careers

floor. The family discusses how hard restaurant and other service people work, especially around any holiday, as part of the children’s economics lessons.

No, thank you Another reader shares this good social skills tip. Since her children were very young, instead of saying “No” to them, she says calmly,” No, thank you.” Now when adults ask her children if they want something and the children don’t want it, they say, “No, thank you.” It’s automatic. “No” and “thank you” are linked. Immediately other adults will raise their eyebrows and say, HOW did you do THAT?” The parent adds when her children are in the middle of a tantrum, “Forget it! There is no link. They aren’t perfect.”

Young children think about themselves, making themselves comfortable, and getting what they want.

However, with these easy activities families can teach them to be “good” children and think of others in a very natural and positive way. Doing little acts that show appreciation like writing thank you notes to hard working retailers, grocers, mail carriers, restaurant employees, and others helps children learn that being nice to others has more benefit than being nasty and ill mannered at any age.

Fire districts tout benefits of CPR, defibrillators Emergency services build network of AEDs to fight cardiac events

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It takes emergency responders between four and six minutes to respond to a 9-1-1 call, said Jeremy Metz, division chief of EMS at West Metro Fire Rescue.

In the event of a sudden cardiac arrest, where the heart unexpectedly stops beating, those four to six minutes are crucial to a person’s odds of survival.

Most people who experience sudden cardiac arrest die within minutes, according to the National Institute of Health.

Metz That’s why local fire districts are working to better equip the public for just such an emergency.

First, they encourage people to receive CPR training. The quicker someone receives CPR during a cardiac event, including the minutes before paramedics arrive, the better the odds of a good outcome.

There’s also a second line of defense — automated external defibrillators, or AEDs. In addition to CPR, the devices help save lives by sending electric shocks into the heart to restore its natural rhythm.

Denver metro fire districts and departments have sought to raise awareness around the use of AEDs in recent years.

“I’m seeing a dramatic increase of people installing AEDs in their businesses and public areas,” Metz said.

“Just the AEDs side of things alone has made a profound difference in public safety and saving lives.”

This awareness effort includes the North Metro Fire Rescue District, which in 2000 received a grant that helped the district place AEDs in Broomfield and Northglenn recreation centers, and in police patrol cars. In 2015, the district began offering free CPR courses as well.

“Since the program’s inception, we have trained hundreds in our community on CPR and AED use,” said Sara Farris, a spokeswoman for the district.

In an email interview, Farris explained the national survival rate for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest victims has risen from the 1990s to about 10 percent. She credited much of the change to CPR and AED use.

Although CPR training is strongly encouraged, she added, the public doesn’t need special training to use an AED. “The great thing about the AED machines is that they instruct bystanders through each step of CPR and how

AEDs can be found in many public places, including municipal buildings and local businesses. COURTESY PHOTO

Point service area can upload a photo and the location of public AEDs to the app, which the district verifies, Metz said. The app displays each AED on an interactive map so residents can pinpoint the closest AED to them.

The app is also connected to their dispatching software, Metz said. Users trained in CPR can receive a notification when there is a cardiac event in a public place within a quarter-mile of them, so they can hopefully provide immediate help.

Overall, emergency personnel need community support, Metz said, to help improve survivability rates for cardiac arrest.

“Finding someone in cardiac arrest is a scary and high-stress event.

Anyone who is going to act to help someone should first consider their surroundings to ensure that they are not entering a harmful environment, potentially becoming another victim,” Farris said. “However, early CPR is the best chance a person has to survive a cardiac arrest and good Samaritan citizens are key in this link of the survival chain.”

C ol

to use the AED. If the victim doesn’t need to be defibrillated, then the machine will let the bystander know so the victim will not be erroneously shocked,” Farris said.

At the community level, AEDs are often found in public places, like malls or businesses. In the south metro area, Castle Rock serves as one example.

The Castle Rock Fire and Rescue Department recently provided the Outlets at Castle Rock with two new AEDs and trained the security staff how to use them.

That adds to the already plentiful supply of the devices across town.

Castle Rock has placed AEDs in all town buildings, recreation centers, county buildings and in each police car, Fire Chief Art Morales said.

“They’re roving throughout the town so the most important thing for people to do is to call 9-1-1 in the event of a cardiac event and then send someone to see if they can access an AED,” Morales said, also stressing the use of CPR. That could be right in their office building, or across the street, if they’re close to a town facility, he said.

Farris recommended employers who provide an AED for their office make sure staffers know where to locate the device and how to use it.

“There wasn’t a big distribution of them around,” Morales said of AEDS in previous decades. “It’s probably in the last 10 years that AEDs have really caught on.”

AEDs may be prevalent in local communities, but departments are also utilizing technology to ensure the public knows doesn’t just know where an AED is located, but also when an AED is needed.

West Metro Fire Rescue, and three other agencies use an app run

by PulsePoint, according to Metz.

PulsePoint’s goal is to build the most comprehensive registry of AEDs, although it isn’t available in all Denver metro areas.

Residents who do live in a Pulse-

According to the American Red Cross, sudden cardiac arrest is one of the leading causes of death in the U.S. The condition, in which the heart suddenly stops beating, can happen at any age with no warning signs in otherwise healthy people. Most people who experience cardiac arrest die within minutes.

Calling 9-1-1 and administering CPR as soon as possible is the best way to improve a victim’s odds of survival, but coupling that with the use of an automated external defibrillator, or an AED, can further improve the chance of survival.

In short, an AED is a portable medical device that analyzes the heart. When necessary, such as during a cardiac event, it sends shocks into the heart to restore its natural rhythm.

Although it’s encouraged, formal training isn’t required to use an AED. The devices come with instructions, and are often found in public places.

WHEAT RIDGE FROM PAGE 9

No. 32 — a name that is still written in stone above the door. That building burned to the ground in 1926.

The current structure was designed by famed architect Temple H. Buell, whose other works can be seen in the Cherry Creek mall and the Paramount Theatre in Denver.

Another high-profile redevelopment kicked off in 2017 — The Corners mixed-use development, at Wadsworth and 38th Avenue.

The path to redevelopment at The Corners was certainly was not a straight one , but at the groundbreaking, representatives from the development company Quadrant Properties, LLC, and from Wheat Ridge City Hall were happy to reach the groundbreaking milestone.

“It’s a celebration of getting rid of a lot of blight. It’s a celebration of 15 acres being turned into something useful, attractive and valuable for now and many years to come,”

Mayor Joyce Jay said at the event.

Jay added that 10 of those acres of that had always been undeveloped.

That space will now be developed into a 35,000 square foot Lucky’s Market, up to 45,000 square feet of additional shopping opportunities, 230 market-rate apartments, and a public plaza. Lucky’s and much of the commercial properties are scheduled to open in the spring of 2018, with the apartments hitting the market that winter. The developer said he anticipates the public plaza and greenspace to be among the last components of the project to open, likely in 2019.

There was also some new news from the long-languishing Clear Creek Crossing development, southwest of the Hwy. 58 and I-70 junction. Initially purchased by Cabelas in 2005, the land has stayed vacant until recent months, when earth movers have begun prepping the site for what is intended to be a mixed use area including “a wide range of uses, including retail, hotel, multifamily residential and employment,” according to the developer’s website.

Sixth-grade shift stays on schedule, classroom additions underway An estimated 3,355 incoming sixthgrade students in Jefferson County Public Schools will move from elementary to middle schools districtwide next year, a shift district officials say will better utilize building space and expand academic offerings.

The change, announced more than a year ago, will bring the state’s second largest school district into alignment with how most Colorado districts and the nation split up elementary and middle school grades. A few schools, with K-8 and 7-12 grade configurations, will remain as they are.

The mountain-area schools started the 6-8 model in the mid-1990s and various schools throughout the district have already enrolled sixth-graders throughout the years.

The following middle schools will serve grades 6-8 beginning 2018-19: Carmody (Bear Creek), Drake (Arvada West), Dunstan (Green Mountain), Everitt (Wheat Ridge), Mandalay (Standley Lake), Manning (Option School), Moore (Pomona), North Arvada (Arvada), Oberon (Ralston Valley), and Wayne Carle (Standley Lake).

Members of Pomona High School’s Diversity Club pose with the plaque it received after collecting 1,852 pounds of food for the inaugural Cans Around the Campus food drive. Pomona raised the most food of the nine Jeffco high schools that took part in the week-long food drive that netted more than 5,000 pounds of food for the Arvada Community Food Bank and The Action Center in Jeffco.

DENNIS PLEUSS/JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS Bell in Golden already serves some sixth grade students. In 2018-19 they will have sixth-graders from all feeder schools in their area.

Alameda and Jefferson area sixthgraders will remain in current elementary schools since those areas are on a K-6 elementary/7-12 secondary model. Option schools, other than Manning, will remain unchanged.

Arvada K-8 in the Arvada area, Bear Creek K-8 in the Bear Creek area, and

Three Creeks K-8 and Coal Creek Canyon K-8 in the Ralston Valley area will continue serving the K-8 model.

This year, the Jeffco Board of Education approved funding to build a $10 million addition to Drake Middle School in Arvada and a $4.5 million addition to Dunstan Middle School in Lakewood to accommodate the changes. Tim Reed, executive director of Jeffco facilities said construction at both schools will be done and class-

Three schools — Ken Caryl in Littleton, Creighton in Lakewood, and Summit Ridge in Littleton— will delay their transition to the new model because the district estimates it needs to find another $15.5 million to add eight classrooms to each school.

In total, the grade shift is expected to have a cost of $32 million over the next two years.

Bell Middle School students Morgan Brodnax, 12, and Sasha Bandock, 13, set up their salt water filtration device at the Girls in STEM competition on Feb. 22 at the Golden Library. The last few years have seen the district STEM offerings noticeably increase.

FROM PAGE 28

The Frank DeAngelis Center for Community Safety, named after former Columbine High Principal Frank DeAngelis, is located at the Martensen Elementary School building, 6625 45th Place in Wheat Ridge.

Martensen opened in 1954 and closed to students in 2011. The facility now serves Jeffco Public Schools safety and security staff, local police and fire departments, other school district security departments, and has also hosted training for the Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms and the FBI. The training facility is a result of partnerships with the school district, Jefferson County Sheriff ’s Office and individual police departments in Jefferson County.

Jeffco schools have seen three school shootings in 1982: Deer Creek Middle School in 1982 and again in 2010, and Columbine High School in 1999.

John McDonald, Jeffco’s executive director of safety, security and emergency management, and Steve Bell, chief operating officer for the

district, have plans to enhance the center’s financial situation in the years to come.

One way of doing that is to create a nonprofit to achieve sustainable funding.

The district currently offers the site at no cost to local law enforcement, and has also partnered with other area school districts including Denver, Aurora and Adams 12 Five Star to offer training.

Since opening, the DeAngelis Center has been a training home from 37 agencies and 5,000 officers and is booking out dates well into 2018.

Outdoor labs add greenhouse classrooms Every sixth grader in Jefferson County Schools spends a week at one of the districts two outdoor labs, Mt. Evans or Windy Peaks. Now, those students will be learning in new greenhouse classrooms.

The greenhouse classrooms unlock a myriad of science lessons for students including food growing and aquaponics, weather, heat transfer and engineering.

The $200,000 project was funded by a variety of donors and grant gathered by the Outdoor Lab Foundation.

First-year challenges are nothing new for hockey coach

M

any years ago, I wrote a paper about the value of experience.

This is another tale about lessons than can be learned from experience.

Chaparral has a first-year hockey team competing in the Colorado High School Hockey Association’s Pinnacle Conference and has a coach in Ryan Finnefrock who knows what it is like to be included in an OVERTIME infant program.

Finnefrock played hockey for Ralston Valley when the program was getting started and now is in charge of launching the program for Chaparral.

“I played for Ralston Valley Jim Benton from 2006-10,” said Finnefrock. “I was part of the four straight Final Four runs and two losses in the state championship games. I was a freshman when it first started.

“I learned a lot from John McKibbon, my head coach in high school.

Even today through the process of getting a team started I call him for advice. He’s been a great help.”

Finnefrock played hockey at St. John’s University. He is now a social studies teacher at Chaparral and the hockey coach for the first-year pro-

going to be some bumps in the road for a beginning-year team. When we get people to buy in, it’s going to be special.”

Fulton, a senior who attends Ponderosa, played last season for Castle View and was the 2017 Colorado Community Media South Metro Player of the Year.

In seven games so far this season, Tyler Johnson leads the Wolverines in scoring with 14 points on 10 goals and four assists. Fulton has 13 points with six goals and seven assists.

“It’s different to be on a first-year team but it’s special because we have something to prove,” said Fulton. “No other team knows us, so when we go out there it is a challenge. We want to prove we can compete with anybody and I think we can. It’s a process to get going. We have some stuff to work on and that shows, but the harder we work the more we are going to surprise people.

“This year is more special because it’s the Parker schools. Before it was like Parker and Castle Rock. This is a little more like my team in a way.”

Woodland Park is the other new team in CHSAA hockey this season and the Panthers are 0-6-0 to start their initial season.

Best teams, overall record-wise, heading into the post-holiday schedule are Monarch at 7-0-0, Regis Jesuit at 6-0-0, Crested Butte at 5-0-0, Valor

gram which draws players from the Parker schools of Chaparral, Legend and Ponderosa.

“You have to have a lot of tools in place,” said Finnefrock.

“Our athletic director, Rob Johnson, did a good job of supporting us in the beginning and we had a lot of interest and support from parents, and then the three coaches out here helping me out (Chuck Jones, Mike Koutecky and Tim Walsh) have seen these players since they were 5 years old.

“These kids play for Parker and get a chance to wear a uniform that supports their community. They all played for Arapahoe (youth) growing up and we were happy to get it going.”

Chaparral was ranked in the top 10 early in the season but entered the holiday break with a 4-3-0 overall record and a 3-3-0 mark in the Pinnacle Conference.

“We have a lot of work to do, but the potential is limitless for this team,” said Finnefrock. “If we buy into what we are preaching you’ll see some things come February that will surprise a lot of teams. We have the get a lot of guys to buy in right now.

“We have great senior leadership.

John Fulton and Alex Walsh are two kids that grew up playing with each other. They are the right guys to lead this team. They know we have a lot of work to do. They know there are

Christian at 6-1-0 and Cherry Creek at 5-1-0. Steamboat Springs, Standley Lake and Fort Collins are 4-1-0.

State basketball leaders In an effort to stay informed, I figured it was time to check the individual basketball leaders as teams resumed play Jan. 3.

There were many players from local teams among the state front-runners so to save space, just the state leaders will be mentioned.

In 5A girls, Cherry Creek’s Jana Van Gytenbeck leads the state with 7.1 assists per game and Castle View’s Madison Hema leads with 3.5 blocks per game. Brandon Romero of Mountain Range has made 35 3-pointers to lead the state’s 5A boys while Caden Sehr of Legacy is tops with 4.1 steals a game.

Golden’s MaKena Prey leads 4A girls in scoring with a 24.9 average and Savannah Martin of Standley Lake is the top rebounder with 12.8 per game.

Izzy Hren of Holy Family is averaging seven assists a game to lead the state and Alameda’s Angel Bernard is the steals leader with 6.3 per game.

Misc. Private Legals

The sale will be held at 2495 Field Street, Lakewood, CO 80215 The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development will bid the lesser amount of the loan balance or the appraised value obtained by the Secretary prior to sale.

There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his prorated share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale.

When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling 10% of the Secretary’s bid in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out to the Secretary of HUD. A deposit need not be accompany each oral bid. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of 10% of the Secretary’s bid must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier’s check. If the Secretary is the highest bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash. The successful bidder will pay all conveying fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery date of the remainder of the payment and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them.

The Secretary may grant an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extension will be for 15-day increments for a fee of $500.00, paid in advance. The extension fee shall be in the form of certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due.

If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit, or at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure. The Commissioner may, at the direction of the HUD representative, offer the property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder.

There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the mortgagor or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant to the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein, HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant.

The scheduled foreclosure sale shall be cancelled or adjourned if it is established, by documented written application of the mortgagor to the Foreclosure Commissioner no less than three (3) days before the date of sale, or otherwise, that the default or defaults upon which the foreclosure is based did not exist at the time of service of this notice of default and foreclosure sale, or all amounts due under the mortgage agreement are tendered to the Foreclosure Commissioner, in the form of a certified cashier’s check payable to the Secretary of HUD, before the public auction of the property is completed.

The amount that must be paid if the mortgage is to be reinstated prior to the scheduled sale is $345,523.41 as of December 6, 2017, plus all other amounts that would be due under the mortgage agreement if payments under the deed of trust had not been accelerated, advertising costs and postage expenses incurred in giving notice, mileage by the most reasonable road distance for posting notices and for the Foreclosure Commissioner’s attendance at the sale, reasonable and customary costs incurred for title and lien record searches, the necessary out of pocket costs incurred by the Foreclosure Commissioner, and all other costs incurred in connection with the foreclosure prior to reinstatement.

The Bookworm’s very best new books of 2017

rust me on this: when you read more than 300 books a year, you come across some books that are not-so-good.

Thankfully, you come across more of them that are good, great, or even stellar. Here’s my list of the Best of 2017, those things that you absolutely can not miss, the books you should want in your hands BOOKWORM now, in no certain order…

FICTION: Anyone who’s read the “Little House on the Prairie” books and loved them will want to read “Caroline: Little House, Revisited” by Sarah Miller. This Terri book imagines the Schlichenmeyer thoughts and dreams of Laura Ingalls’ mother; the surprise is that Miller lets Caroline Ingalls be frustrated, angry, and real.

For those who need a good scare, “The Last to See Me” by M Dressler is what you need. Narrated by a woman who’s dead-not-dead, it’s a cat-and-mouse tale of a “hunter” who comes to rid an old mansion of a mischievous spirit. But does he have the right spirit? Gotta find out for yourself.

Everything about “The Trick” by Emanuel Bergmann is going to captivate you. Everything. It’s the story of an old man who lived a full, tumultuous, dangerous life; and a little boy who’s losing what he loves best and decides to trust the most unlikely person to fix it. It’s about love, most of all, but it’s not sappy – it’s funny and charming and you can’t miss it.

Here’s another chiller, but for a different reason: “When the English Fall” by David Williams. It’s the story of the end of the world, told from the point-of-view of a quiet, introspective Amish man. It’s one of those “what if---?” novels, with a slight twist of the weird. The ending will leave you squirming, so what’s not to love?

And finally – a Christmas tale that can be read any time: “The Deal of a Lifetime” by Frederick Backman is

the story of a man who hates Christmas because of all the horrible things that have happened in his life. What would he give to make the holiday better?

Read this under-70-page book but bring the tissues. That is all.

Bonus: “One Good Mama Bone”

by Bren McClain and “The Ada Decades” by Paula Martinac were close runners-up. The first is about a mother’s love; the second is a look at history through the eyes of two lesbian women. Both are worth a second look.

NON-FICTION: Have you ever wondered where your feet have been? That may be an odd question, until you’ve read “The Ground Beneath Us” by Paul Bogard.Indeed, this book is about dirt but that’s not all: you’ll read what that dirt consists of, what else is down there, how scientists find fossils and remains, what keeps our ground stable (or doesn’t) and what comes from what’s below.

There never seems to be an end to the ubiquitous Hollywood biography, but “Hank & Jim: The Fifty-Year Friendship of Henry Fonda and James Stewart” by Scott Eyman is a keeper. It’s warm and funny, but also very sad and poignant. This book will give you lots of insight, not only

to these two stars and their families, but also how Hollywood used to work, back in its heyday.

For the reader who loves a cheerworthy story, “Never Caught” by Erica Armstrong Dumbar is the story of Oney, who was owned by George Washington. Through a series of laws, Washington tried to keep her enslaved but she was smarter than he thought. Not only did she escape, but she stayed free right beneath his nose.

It’s a tale that will make you outraged, but it’ll also amaze you.

Here’s a surprise: “Scores” by Michael D. Blutrich. It’s the true story of a gay man who ran his New York City nightclub with help from the Italian mafia. When he was arrested for something totally unrelated, he decided to work with authorities to shut the mob down. Just a little bit dangerous? Yep, and a rompish can’tmiss, too.

Another pleasant surprise was “The Long Haul” by Finn Murphy. It’s a slice-of-life look at over-the-road trucking, including some of those kinds of stories you’d ask a trucker, if you could. For the curious, it’s a musthave.

KIDS BOOKS: Just three of them:

With bullying in the news, your child will want to read “Dirt” by Denise Gosliner Orenstein – especially if she’s an animal lover. This novel is about a little girl who lives in poverty and thus is essentially invisible. She’s okay with that, until her father falls ill and goes to the hospital and she’s alone. Then she finds a filthy, matted pony who won’t go home. What happens next will captivate any 7-to-12year-old.

“The Song from Somewhere Else” by A.F. Harrold, illustrated

by Levi Pinfold is another book with bullying at its theme. It’s the story of a little girl who befriends a friendless boy from school – but that doesn’t make her very popular.

Get this book for your older-elementary-school-to-early-middle-schooler, but read it yourself first. You’ll love it, too.

And finally, “They Both Die at The End” by Adam Silvera is a tale of two teenage boys that will die today.

Death-Cast has told them so – and so, what will they do with their final day?

There’s fun in this book, a few laughs, a bit of surprise romance, and a tale that will make anyone 14 and older think about living life to the fullest.

And there you are. A pile o’books to get you started for the new year. Look for them all and Season’s Readings !

Without public notices, the government wouldn’t have to say anything else.

Public notices are a community’s window into the government. From zoning regulations to local budgets, governments have used local newspapers to inform citizens of its actions as an essential part of your right to know. You know where to look, when to look and what to look for to be involved as a citizen. Local newspapers provide you with the information you need to get involved.

Notices are meant to be noticed. Read your public notices and get involved!
