40 inmates positive for COVID-19 at Jeffco jail Eight staff also now positive

BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Forty inmates at the Jefferson County jail have now tested positive for COVID-19, Sheriff ’s Office Public Information Officer Michael Taplin said on May 28.

Taplin said the jail has tested 126 inmates for COVID-19. The jail is now testing all inmates who exhibit any symptoms of COVID-19 after previously requiring that inmates exhibit at least two symptoms to receive a test.

“We have tests now where our medical provider was having issues getting tests previously,” said Taplin.

Taplin said he could not speak to whether the cases were tied to inmates who have contact with one another, saying that such questions are investigated by the jail’s medical staff and Jefferson County Public Health as they investigate outbreaks at the jail. All inmates have tested positive for COVID-19 are isolated in cells by themselves.

On May 8, the jail had announced 17 inmates had tested positive for COVID-19.

Eight jail employees have also now tested positive for COVID-19, Taplin said.

“I don’t know if we can expect a certain number never having dealt with this sort of pandemic but I would say

that we are not surprised that we have it in the jail due to how infectious the disease is,” he said.

The Jefferson County jail is not the only jail in the metro area to have current COVID-19 outbreak. Colorado Public Health and Environment’s COVID-19 outbreaks page also lists outbreaks at the Denver County jail, Douglas County jail and Weld County jail.

Also, 539 inmates have tested positive at the Sterling Correctional Facility in Sterling. The active outbreak at the Jefferson County jail outbreak is listed as starting on May 5. A facility is considered to have an active outbreak when there have been two or more cases of COVID-19 within a 14 day period.

As of midnight on May 28, the jail population was 559, which is less than half of its current operational capacity of 1,148. Taplin said the jail population has been below 600 for the past two weeks.

As a result of the reduced capacity, Taplin said the jail is now able to get almost every inmate into their own cell on the old side of the jail while there are bunks spaced between inmates on the newer side of the jail.

Taplin said the jail has also recently began issuing inmates surgical masks to wear inside the jail after the Sheriff ’s Office received additional PPE. Inmates were previously issued masks made from old jail uniforms.

Taplin said the jail continues to do the best it can as it deals with the pandemic.

Indian Hills, COVID-19 has turned up in communities across Jefferson County.

But while few corners of Jeffco

have escaped the reach of the disease, it has not hit all areas equally.

New, more detailed case information data compiled by Jefferson County Public Health shows significant disparities in the rates of COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths in communities in Jefferson County.

According to that data, the Jeffco community with the highest rate of COVID-19 cases is Edgewater with a rate of 7.1 cases per 1,000 persons.

Wheat Ridge has the second highest rate at 6.8 cases per 1,000 people while Lakewood has the third at a rate of 5.0 cases per 1,000 people.

Those rates are all significantly higher than the county average of 3.7 cases per 1,000. Other communities with an above average rate are Golden (4.2 cases per 1,000), Coal Creek (4.2 cases per 1,000) and Kittredge (4.0 cases per 1,000).

COVID FROM PAGE 2

Coming in at below the county average were Arvada (3.4 cases per 1,000) and Westminster (2.8 cases per 1,000) as well as smaller communities like Evergreen (2 cases per 1,000) and Indian Hills (2.8 cases per 1,000).

Jefferson County Public Health Epidemiologist Kate Watkins said the community numbers, as well as more detailed case information that breaks down cases by census tracks, show that the county is seeing higher rates of cases in communities and neighborhoods that have higher numbers of low income and minority residents.

“Jefferson County is not any different than the rest of Colorado or the rest of the country in that we are seeing with those lower income folks that are having to continue to go out and work every day and interact with the public more, we are seeing higher rates among those populations. And that’s to be expected because they are as important as our health care workers and have as much risk.”

But while most communities seem in line with population trends, JCPH COVID-19 Incident Commander Christine Billings said she wonders if Wheat Ridge’s rate is being impacted by the presence of a drivethru testing site at the Stride Community Health Center, as the site means Wheat Ridge residents have

easier access to testing and thus might be more likely to get tested if they presented symptoms.

“I am curious about whether the increase in testing is affecting that number,” said Billings. “Which is what we want, we want to increase testing so we can do contact tracing and isolate those cases in the community.”

The county’s data also shows that of the 167 Jeffco residents who had died from COVID-19 as of May 28, 68.9% of those who died lived in skilled nursing or long-term care institutions.

Watkins said that trend is consistent with that of communities from around the nation, which have found that elder care facilities are particularly vulnerable to COVID-19.

DENVER PROTESTS ONLINE Denver is one of several cities acoss the nation that saw violence and disruption following mostly peaceful protests of the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

Christine Billings, JCPH’s COVID-19 Incident Commander, said Jeffco is similar to Adams County in that both counties have high numbers of elder care facilities, with Adams County having eight more.

“The rate of death is pretty similar between the two counties,” she said.

“So it is it is tied definitely to the number of facilities that we have.”

More Metro Area Homes Went Under Contract in May Than Ever Before Yes, the Covid-19 pandemic hurt the real estate market in April, but it sure made a rebound in May! The 13-month chart at right is for Adams, Arapahoe, Broomfield, Denver, Douglas and Jefferson counties.

Last week and this, you probably heard or read about how bad the real estate market was in April, and that was true here in the Denver Metro area, as it was throughout the country.

Pending sales of existing homes in April were roughly half the pending sales of April 2019. But pending sales in May surged to a number that was greater than the number for any month since before 2010, which is as far back as REcolorado’s statistics application goes. (Note: The number of pending

sales could go up as new contracts are reported during the first 3 days of June.)

The number of closings in May (also subject to adjustment as they are reported this week) was an especially low number because of the super-low number of homes that went under contract in April. The number of sold listings in any given month is always within range of the number of pending transactions the previous month..

It should be noted that, despite the lower number of pending and closed listings in April compared to 2019, the median sold price was much higher — $430,000 vs. $405,000 in April 2019. The median sold price for May, although down slightly from the stay-at-home month of

Accessory Dwelling Units Are Gaining in Popularity Accessory dwelling units (ADUs) have been around for a long time. Fonzie lived in one (above the Cunningham’s garage), but they fell out of favor with local governments. Recently, local governments have warmed up to ADUs, promulgating zoning regulations encouraging them, especially detached units in a backyard or above a garage.

You may have heard ADUs referred to as backyard bungalows, micro homes, retirement cottages, guest houses, mancaves, she-sheds, or mi casita. They are created for many reasons: independent living for relatives (aging parents, 20somethings), rental income/investment property, home office, studio, etc. These days it could be quarantine quarters.

Local governments like them as one way to address the pressing issue of affordable housing in a way that is sustainable, is a compliment to the neighborhood, and provides more affordable housing. People hardly realize they are there, and when they do, often want one.

ADUs have been approved by the state of California, where affordable housing is a crisis throughout the state.

The tiny house movement has popularized the idea of radical downsizing and the concept that living in a small space has many positives. ADU’s are not tiny houses, as the term is used to-

day. ADUs are something more. Although small, they are a complete living unit with a full kitchen and bathroom, with a comfortable living area suitable for entertaining. They have a foundation and meet all code requirements. ADUs are more expensive than tiny homes, but they can be worth it.

How much do they cost? Predesigned manufactured (built off-site) units can be less than $200,000, and even less depending on the characteristics of the site and choices made by the owner.

Would you like to know more? A good resource is at www.Accessory Dwellings.org, created by Kol Peterson.

Peterson lives in Portland, Oregon (an early adopter of ADUs), has built many himself, and conducts workshops on all aspects of the process.

Locally, a company called Verdant Living sells manufactured ADUs, not ones that are “stick-built” on-site, so if that works for you, you can email them (bungalow@verdantliving.us) for more information. They can refer you to other companies which build ADUs, whether free-standing, over your garage, or in a walk-out basement.

Personally, I have sold homes which have ADUs. Having a rentable unit can make a home more affordable to many.

April, was still higher than the median sold price in May 2019.

It’s also worth noting how quickly listings went under contract in April and in May. April listings went under contract in 5 days (median figure), which was even faster than last year, while May listings went under contract at the same pace as last year.

These statistics may come as a surprise to those who think that the real estate market is on a downturn because of Covid-19. I am as surprised as anyone at the resilience of our real estate market.

Driving the market is the fact that there is still a low supply of homes for sale and an over-supply of people needing or wanting to buy a home. That explains the low “Days in MLS” figure for April when the number of homes for sale was so low. Because so many sellers postponed putting their homes on the market during the lockdown, it became more of a seller’s market than before.

That meant that the homes that were on the market had less competition for the large number of buyers.

Given what we’re seeing now, it’s hard to be pessimistic about the future of our real estate market, however pessimistic we might be about the country as a whole, given the rioting in multiple cities around the country, including Denver. We’ll see in June how much impact that may have.

Another wildcard is the possible resurgence of the coronavirus, given how our state, like others, has yielded to pressure to reopen earlier than CDC guidelines recommended. A resurgence could result in another stay-at-home order.

One reader said they were offered a quick sale of $120,000 cash, but called me before agreeing to the transaction.

My research showed their home could sell for twice that amount.

I wasn’t contacted in time to save an elderly Arvada couple from being coerced into selling their home for half its

worth by a developer who made a point of telling the couple not to tell anyone about their transaction. They actually felt threatened, not just coerced. Indeed it was a neighbor who told me about the transaction, because the couple still felt obliged not to reveal anything.

A rendering of how Washington Avenue will look on weekends, when it will be closed to all vehicle traffic.

COURTESY RENDERING

Golden closing downtown blocks to make space for dining, shopping Businesses to use sidewalks and parking spots to give customers more space

BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Golden City Council is partially closing four downtown blocks to vehicle traffic during the week and fully closing them to vehicles on weekends to give downtown businesses more room to serve customers while adhering with social distancing requirements.

The agreed-to plan calls for Washington Avenue from 11th to 13th Streets and 12th Street from Miner’s Alley to Prospector’s Alley to be reduced down to one lane in each direction on weekdays with the parking lane being able to be utilized for restaurant seating, retail displays and other business uses.

On weekends, those blocks will be closed to vehicles entirely with the parking lanes still being used for business purposes while the center of the street would be open only to pedestrians. However, the pedestrian area in the center of the street, which would be 20 to 24 feet, would also be accessible to emergency vehicles.

Cities across Colorado began scrambling to look into how to allow restaurants and other businesses to utilize outside spaces adjacent to their buildings to serve customers after Gov. Jared Polis announced on May 25 that restaurants could begin dine-in service again on May 27, provided that restaurants only be open to 50% of their regular occupancy and serve no more than 50 people at once. Restaurants must also space tables at least six feet apart.

Under the new city plan, businesses

Restaurants will be able to expand outdoor dining areas into the parking lane of Washington Avenue.

PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO will need to apply for a license allowing them to place restaurant seating, retail displays or other offerings in the parking lane space. Restaurants seeking to serve alcohol within the space will also need to file for a liquor permit modification.

However, Golden Community and Economic Director Steve Glueck said city staff are also working to implement procedures that will allow for expedited processing of those applications.

The ability for businesses to apply for city permission to utilize such spaces for seating or displays has been made possible by a resolution passed by the city council on May 28 granting the city manager the temporary authority to permit sales on sidewalks, parking lanes and alleys in Golden.

The resolution also suspends off-street parking requirements in all zoning districts to allow for outdoor business operations within those areas dedi-

cated to parking.

The partial closure of the selected blocks of Washington Avenue and 12th Street took place on May 29 with the first full weekend closure set to start on June 6.

Casey Brown was among the city councilmembers who expressed support for a plan that would allow for different levels of access on weekdays and the weekend.

“It seems that on one hand on the weekends we are getting big rushes of people and with nowhere else to go and you can’t go inside the businesses the planters just get overwhelmed and people are everywhere so it’s clear we need more space,” he said. “But at the same time on the weekdays we are still attracting some crowds but I don’t think it’s as busy.”

Mayor Laura Weinberg said that while she wants to provide businesses more flexibility to serve customers, she had concerns that the street clo-

Cars parked along Washington Avenue.

Restaurants and shops can now apply to set up dining areas or retail displays in the parking lane.

PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO sure could attract crowds to downtown at a time when gatherings are risky.

“I’d like, with whatever closures we do, that we are not creating a scene,” she said. “The tables and the seating areas are under the control of the restaurants, that the retail spaces that are extending into the public space has control of the number of people in that area and that the city is not encouraging people to come downtown to hang out.”

Glueck said he will report back to the council about how the closures are going on June 11 so that further adjustments can be made, if needed.

That conversation will be important, he said, because the council has granted the city relatively wide latitude to approve applications for outdoor business activities.

“We will report back on how it’s going recognizing that (the city) will do our best and make some errors and do some cool stuff too,” said Glueck.

Colorado may consider small-business relief fund Restaurants now allowed to reopen across the state

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Eateries across Colorado are now allowed to resume sit-down service, but Gov. Jared Polis acknowledged “the pain our restaurants have been through” during the state’s closure of dine-in service.

“And that means everybody,” Polis said at a May 26 news conference. “It means, of course, restaurant owners, but it also means chefs, sous chefs, bussers, wait staff, greeters” and other workers associated with restaurants.

The day before, Polis announced that restaurants could reopen for limited in-person dining as of May 27.

In response to a Colorado Community Media reporter’s question during the May 26 news conference, Polis didn’t say the state could provide immediate financial assistance to help restaurants survive. But he expressed desire to work with the state Legislature on a small-business relief fund and hopes the federal government can offer more help.

“Many restaurants are participating in the (federal) Paycheck Protection Program, but as originally constructed, it didn’t work perfectly for them because they didn’t have a big payroll or any payroll in some cases dur-

NICK PUCKETT ing the time period where they were closed,” Polis said.

He added: “We hope there’s a piece in the next federal legislation that applies specifically to tourism businesses (and) to restaurants.”

Colorado’s restaurant industry accounts for more than 294,000 jobs, or roughly 10% of statewide employment, according to Polis’ presentation.

In authorizing restaurants to resume dine-in operations, Polis said in a May 25 statement that the state is “still a long way from returning to normal, but these updates are a step in the right direction because Coloradans are doing a good job so far limiting our social interactions.”

He added: “If we can continue staying at home as much as possible, wearing face coverings and washing our hands when leaving the house, then we will be able to slow the spread of the virus while reigniting our economy.”

But he warned: “If not, it will cost lives, and the economic pain will also be worse.”

Colorado on March 16 ordered bars and restaurants to stop dine-in service for 30 days — still allowing delivery, take-out and drive-through service — in a bid to slow the spread of COVID-19.

But extensions of the shutdown have kept restaurants and bars closed

— except in counties with waivers from state requirements — until now.

Restaurants are now able to open with limited seating, with different parties spaced at least 6 feet apart, and the state is encouraging local officials to allow expanded outdoor seating options. Polis has suggested cities and counties should consider seating on sidewalks, parking lots and even streets. Municipal parking areas could also be an option, he said.

“That’s really the only way, with the spacing, that we’re going to have a thriving restaurant” industry, Polis said at a May 18 news conference. He added: Restaurants “simply can’t stay in business with a quarter or half capacity.”

Polis also hopes restaurants would expand on their own property outdoors and on adjacent or non-adjacent private plots nearby, as long as they have permission of the landowner.

Bars, however, don’t all have the green light to open for dine-in service. The state will evaluate in June whether establishments that do not serve food can open, according to a fact sheet from the governor’s office on the new guidelines.

“The intent of this guidance is to open establishments in which people traditionally associate only with those in their party,” the fact sheet says.

Whether a business can open as a restaurant depends on whether it is

Survey finds support for making Astor House a community event space Two percent of respondents said city should divest of historic house

BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A new community survey shows a majority of respondents would like the Astor House to be used for a community event or meeting space.

Of the 146 residents that completed the online survey, which asked residents to choose their five preferred uses (in no particular order) for the vacant historic building from a list of 19 options, 75 selected a meeting or event space as one of their five preferred uses, making it the most popular option on the list.

The second and third most popular options were an arts center and gallery followed by a museum with rotating exhibits, which were chosen by 61 and 58 residents respectively.

Other popular options included art studios/coop gallery (chosen by 45 respondents) and a tea house (chosen by 42 respondents).

The survey was published online

by Astor House Alliance, a citizen group led by Golden Historic Preservation Board chair Suzanne Stutzman, that is gathering citizen input about the future direction of the Astor House.

The historic building had been operated by the city as a museum, but the building was closed in 2015 for major structural repairs and renovations. It never reopened, due to financial sustainability issues. The city council had considered proposals for the historic house last summer and had at one point seemed on the verge of going to the voters with a plan for the house to be turned into a modern bed-and-breakfast with a health-focused snack and juice bar on its first floor. However, council ultimately decided against going through with the vote.

“Our group just felt like last year’s effort felt a little short and there’s more interest out there and I feel like we’ve been a conduit to capture that information and funnel it both to groups that are interested in do-

The Astor House Alliance had originally planned to hold two community forums about the future of the house in March and April when the COVID-19 pandemic put a halt to those plans. They pivoted to a community survey called “Dream Big”, which was made available at astorhouse.org from March 19 through April 18.

set up to host patrons for meals, the fact sheet continues.

“In many cases, this is straightforward when an establishment already functions as a conventional restaurant and has a full-service kitchen,” the fact sheet says. “There may be some establishments, like breweries with large indoor and outdoor spaces, that want to change their business model to reopen and operate like a restaurant. In these cases, food must be provided by a licensed retail food establishment.”

A business could partner with neighboring restaurants to provide food or partner with food trucks, according to the fact sheet. Light snacks, such as bar nuts, or things that are commercially prepared somewhere else and heated up in a microwave don’t count as food service. Allowing patrons to bring their own takeout or order food from an app does not count either, the fact sheet says.

Any establishment that can adhere to the state’s guidelines and ensure access to food for on-premise consumption can open, the guidance from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment says.

With dire spread, restrictions could return The governor’s office’s fact sheet addresses the question: What if COVID-19 cases spike up after opening up more businesses?

“The governor won’t hesitate to take the necessary steps to protect the health and safety of Coloradans, including going back to the stay-at-home level” of restrictions or issuing other rules, the fact sheet says.

Under the state’s safer-at-home order — Colorado’s current set of social distancing standards — “we must continue staying home as much as possible, and take the necessary steps like washing hands and wearing a mask when leaving the house,” the fact sheet says.

Some camps open; skiing able to open Meanwhile, children’s day camps and youth sports camps were allowed to open June 1, according to the governor’s office’s news release.

Residential overnight camps remain closed, and decisions for July and August overnight camps will be made in mid-June. Children’s residential camps that choose to operate as day camps must work with the Colorado Department of Human Services and their local public health agency for approval.

Day camps, including mobile, youth sports camps and outdoor camps, must operate with restrictions as specified in the state’s guidance at tinyurl.com/ ColoradoCampGuidance.

Effective May 25, private campsites could open, according to the release.

If a host county would like to keep campsites closed, county commissioners should consult with their local public health agency and then notify the Colorado Department of Natural Resources and the state health department in writing, the release said.

Campgrounds in the state park system are already open.

The state’s Executive Order D 2020049, which extended the closure of ski resorts, has expired, the release said.

Ski resorts may work to secure approval from their local authorities in order to open.

Jeffco summer camps closing, going virtual in 2020

BY CASEY VAN DIVIER CVANDIVIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When Camp Granite Lake in Coal Creek made an April announcement that summer camp would be canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic, the decision, which seemed premature to some, drew significant media attention.

“Families really understood it. A few of them said it’s early, but we have a really thorough medical lens that we view things through,” said founder and director Tommy Feldman. “Right now, there’s just not enough known about the virus.”

Despite some feeling surprised over the announcement, it wasn’t long before other day camps and sleepaway camps across the Jefferson County area began to take the same steps, making for a summer 2020 just as unprecedented as the spring has been.

On May 25, Gov. Jared Polis announced that beginning June 1, summer camps including day camps and sports camps could open under strict health and safety precautions.

But even with the option available, most local Jeffco camps are looking at other structures or virtual alternatives, at least for the month of June.

4-H summer camps “Going to a camp in this current climate, where you can’t be close to your friends and you’re all wearing a mask, I wonder how it would alter a child’s feelings on what a day camp is going forward,” said Sharon Moore, who coordinates Jefferson County summer day camps for 4-H youth.

She believes that for some, it may be better to hold off on in-person camp — “But we think it’s important to have that opportunity (to have virtual camp); we don’t want to lose our relationships with families, either,” she said.

The 4-H camps — programmed through the Colorado State University Extension office — will run in a virtual setting this year. As opposed to taking campers to a different open space or park each day, kids will be able to log onto an interactive map and virtually visit a different place Monday through Friday.

When they click on the map, they’ll be able to watch video clips created by

the staff.

“They’ll be teaching some of the lessons and just giving the kids a view of what they see out there and giving them a connection to the team,” Moore said. “Then as best we could, we recreated some of the hands-on activities. Some might be inside or a lot of them can be done outside in your backyard.”

The website will also link to other sites for more information on certain topic. The entire camp will provide several hours of content per day, but the idea is that campers can choose how much or how little they would like to participate in each day, Moore said.

The camp is open to incoming third-graders through sixth-graders “in the community and beyond,” she said. Families can register for free at jeffco.extension.colostate.edu/4-h/4-hsummer-camps.

Camp Granite Lake Meanwhile, Camp Granite Lake is likewise making changes, holding fast to its decision not to hold its summer sessions in 2020. The choice was partially made protect the camp from unexpected economic hardship that could come if the pandemic began to spark additional closures later this summer.

“We’re still a young camp; this would have been our 15th year overall,” Feldman said. “If we were open (this year) and had to close because of the pandemic, we would have never been able to open again.”

Camp Granite Lake is now completely focused on preparing for 2021.

“The nice thing about being closed is we are not in a hurry; we’re just rolling it out slowly for next year,” Feldman said. “The support of our families has been overwhelming. I think when we open up in 2021, we’re going to have a strong return.”

Though camp won’t be running as usual this summer, families who enroll for next year now will be invited for half-day opportunities to enjoy camp activities like paddle-boarding, ceramics, canoeing and others, Feldman said.

The camp is also looking at opening up later in the summer so families can stay the night if possible under health guidelines.

Lakewood summer camps The city of Lakewood has canceled all of its summer camp programs this season, with several barriers standing in the way of opening even despite the governor’s announcement.

For instance, some of the Lakewood programs were set to take place in Jeffco Public Schools facilities, which are unavailable at this time, said Amber Wesner, public engagement and operations manager with the city.

Because of this, the city is joining other organizations in offering virtual activities. Lakewood began posting activities May 29 and they can be accessed through Lakewood. org/Register, Lakewood.org/VirtualRec and Lakewood.org/VirtualArts.

Arvada Center camps The Arvada Center’s summer camps, which include dance, drama, visual arts and other camps, are also going virtual this June out of concern for families’ safety, said assistant education director Teresa Cirrincione.

Camps normally run for about three hours Monday through Friday, but will now be held over Zoom video conferencing for about one-and-ahalf hours each day. By doing this,

One summer camp program still happening this year is the Sun Camp in Wheat Ridge. Pictured: Olivia McLeod gets started on the fanciful forest that will greet summer camp-participating families June 1 at the Wheat Ridge Rec Center.

Education professionals take action with parade at Capitol Groups asking legislators to pass emergency tax, use reserves

BY CASEY VAN DIVIER CVANDIVIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The morning of May 26, the state capitol served as the grounds for a car and school bus parade put together by Colorado education support professionals.

The parade was a kickoff of two weeks of action organized by the Colorado Education Association (CEA), which unions from Denver and across the state, as well as local unions Jefferson County Education Association (JCEA) and Jeffco Education Support Professionals Association (JESPA), are affiliated with.

JESPA rented school buses from Jeffco for the parade, which then drove in front of the capitol building.

The goal of the parade was to put pressure on legislators to mitigate some of the economic struggles school districts are facing.

Because of the economic downturn caused by COVID-19, Colorado school districts have been told to expect significant cuts in state funding. Jeffco Public Schools’ chief financial officer, Kathleen Askelson, said at a May 13 study session that for the 2020-2021 school year, the district could see around $74.3 million in reductions from the state.

Support professionals are particularly worried what this may mean for their jobs next year, said Lara Center, JESPA president, during a May 26 press conference. Support staff include educational aides, food service workers, custodial staff and others.

Staff cuts are being made at each individual school, and while the organization did not have data on how many support professionals have lost their jobs for 2020-2021 so far, “there have been staff told they will not have a job in August,” she said. “Support staff can frequently be the place administrators go to cut.”

First-grade teacher Jon Cefkin from Lukas Elementary shared that he has seen support professionals cut throughout his 26 years of teaching, which has resulted in educational aides spending fewer hours helping students in the classroom.

“It really cuts down on the one-onone time with the students and the time (staff) get to listen to students and help with their mental health needs,” he said Jenn Muñoz, secretary with Jeffco’s Community & Family Connections office, said when support staff are cut, students who are already facing hardship may find themselves in an even more difficult situation.

“We have students who struggle with homelessness. We have students who struggle with transportation to and from school,” she said at the May 26 conference. “Students now more than ever deserve more support, not less.”’

Local support professionals union members participate in the parade and rally to get their message to legislators.

Many of those driving in the parade created signs with messages like this one, which reads “Protect our Schools.”

All that is impossible and unknowable about this moment HITTING HOME

Michael Alcorn

O

nce upon a time, I took it upon myself to start writing down phrases and passages from different sources that spoke to me on sticky notes, and placing them around my world. The other day I came across one of them, and it sang to me like it hasn’t in years. It’s from the Old Testament Book of Micah: “What does the Lord require of you? To act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God.” Humility is a very difficult quality to come to grips with. And especially in a day and age when we’re told to puff our chest out and let the world see everything we’re doing, when we’ve invented sticks that make it easier to chronicle our latest great outfit or envy-in-

spiring outing, holding on to an appropriate sense of humility is a challenge, to say the least.

But I believe that humility and wisdom work together, and a wise man once said that “the beginning of wisdom is ‘I don’t know’”.

Actually, I think it was Data on Star Trek TNG who said that, who wasn’t a wise man but a cyborg, but, it’s also entirely possible he was quoting somebody else. At any rate, “I don’t know” is at once a powerful statement of humility and the first step on the path of wisdom.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Next steps for COLEG As a candidate for County Commissioner, one of my top priorities is a flourishing environment for Jefferson County businesses. Little did I know when I made that commitment that our businesses, and their employees, would be hit so hard, so fast. The pandemic threw a sucker punch that might be tough to recover from.

There are 611,000 small businesses in Colorado employing 1.1m people; 24 percent are two months, or less, away from permanent closure; 11 percent less than one month away from going out of business. (U.S. Chamber) It’s too late to argue the merits of mandates that forced the closure of many — that’s water under the bridge. Now it’s time to look at what we can do to help our business community recover. The first step is to do no further harm.

As the Legislature reconvenes, several new bills would shift financial burden from government to businesses. Among them a COVID -19 related Worker’s Comp provision that would result in higher insurance rates for employers; mandated sick leave; whistle blower 90-day job protection for employees claiming their employer isn’t taking appropriate safety precautions; and with the Unemployment Trust Fund being depleted, the implementation of a solvency surcharge paid for, you guessed it, by businesses.

This is a difficult time to be in business. Most will struggle to survive. Some will never recover. Now isn’t the time to place more of a burden on our business community. I urge the Legislature to help our business community, not harm it.

Polis should stop Here we are 2-3 weeks after the Water’s Edge Winery and C&C Café openings without a single related COVID-19 incidence being exposed in the media. It is highly unlikely that the media would miss spreading something like that far and wide and frequently.

This likely upends the assertion of the Polis orders being necessary to safeguard the masses for their own good.

If this is true the people of Colorado and their livelihoods continue to be put under unnecessary duress in perpetuity, as well as any potential real economic gain from the substantial summer tourism dollars that normally come into the Colorado coffers.

It seems to me that this is more about Governor Polis attempting to justify his heavy-handed orders in relation to the infinitesimal numbers that were orders of magnitude lower than the models or even he predicted would happen by now.

Considering the actual statistics, it’s hard to explain this as anything but politically motivated and aimed at the November election. His executive orders significantly weaken petition and ballot initiative integrity and telegraph that he may limit in-person voting significantly by enforcing social distancing requirements in the primaries and potentially November if he extends the state of emergency. Does he really think he needs social distancing with little data to support it?

Restore Colorado fully to its prior COVID-19 state Governor Polis, your state of emergency and emergency powers are no longer needed and very telling if allowed to continue.

enough and I was denied activation.

However, something else was activated: my aggravation.

I thought it was pretty clever to issue cards rather than a paper check, which could have been deposited directly.

Maybe you already know this: according to cnbc.com, “Half of Americans currently own unredeemed gift cards or store credits and that adds up to tens of billions in unused money. More than one-third with unused cards won’t use up all of the funds.”

The experience was so aggravating I thought about throwing the card away.

I counted to 10 and called the 800 number again.

For some reason, I was guided through a different menu and was able to activate the card without listening to the outgoing messages or talking with anyone.

Who knows?

Maybe your experience was or will be better than mine. In any case, read the letter that comes with the card, and take a look at the May 19 Forbes article that answers frequently asked questions about the cards.

Police and black folks — the swagger and disrespect must end

I

’m a 65-year-old black man, and I have literally spent most of my life doing everything possible to avoid encounters with police.

My mother GUEST warned me when I was about 12 to COLUMNS beware of the police because even though I was a good boy, I could be killed with impunity. I’d be just another dead black boy supposedly mixed up in guns, drugs or gangs.

I wish I wasn’t Gregory L. Moore afraid of the police. I have never had a cop live on my street.

I’ve known only two law enforcement officers socially; one is a former FBI agent who I met a decade ago and is a great guy, and the other is a black cop who I played street basketball with in the 1980s.

The vast majority of police never fire a weapon, but the bad deeds rightly get more attention because of the suffering.

As a journalist I did some of those stories. I wrote about suburban police officers using sap gloves to beat suspects. I wrote about a white cop who shot and killed an unarmed black man, who was on his way home from a party. The police officer had numerous complaints against him and was known in the department as the “Orkin Man,” after a commercial for a pest-control company.

I’ve made it this far by being extremely careful. I’ve never hung out in bars, don’t lose my temper with authority figures, and haven’t had a fight since high school, all in an effort to avoid any dealings with the police.

Yet, I know the fear. I have been stopped at least 20 times by the police, fortunately without escalation.

Once I was stopped on an early Sunday morning as my family hurried to church. I was admittedly speeding. But you could feel the air being sucked in by my family as I pulled over and waited for the officer to approach.

I rolled down the window, careful to put both hands in plain view on the steering wheel. The officer asked me if I knew why he stopped me. I quickly offered that I was late for church and was probably over the speed limit.

He said yes sir, that was correct, took my license and registration and walked to his cruiser. When he came back, he said he was giving me a warning. Shocked, I said thank you.

He leaned into my car and replied: “Despite what you think, my job is not to make your day worse.”

There have been other encounters like that. But there have been dark moments.

Returning from a concert with four black male college classmates in the 1970s, we were pulled over and ordered out of our car in the snow, some of us without our shoes or coats on, because we allegedly “fit the description” of robbery suspects. After standing in the cold for a half hour, we were let go after we checked out

with no warrants.

Then, there was the time in the early 1990s when I was traveling with my family from Boston to Vermont to start vacation. We were driving along a deserted New Hampshire road around midnight when we passed a cop sitting at a closed gas station.

My wife and son were slumped down in the car asleep, but I immediately knew it was trouble when the cop car slowly rolled out behind me. After following me for a mile or so, the blue lights and siren came on. My wife jumped up in her seat and asked what was going on. I told her I didn’t know.

I was driving the speed limit, so that couldn’t be it. The officer tapped on the window and brusquely asked for my license and registration.

I calmly asked him what was the problem, but he silently stalked off as my 8-year-old son came to life in the backseat.

As my blood began to boil, my wife and kid pleaded with me to stay calm.

No other cars were on the road. After about 10 minutes, the officer came back and handed me my documents.

My hands in plain view, I asked why he had stopped me. “You were driving too close to my vehicle,” he snapped.

I sat there for a moment fuming, letting him take off before me. I told my wife that he stopped me simply because he saw a black man and suspected I was a criminal only to be surprised to find a family.

Then, there was the time the cops showed up at my house in Golden.

My wife was in the car with our two daughters, and when she buzzed herself into our gated street she noticed a police car pull in behind her.

She assumed they were heading to a neighbor’s house, but they pulled into our driveway and asked for her brother, who was living with us at the time. He is the nicest guy and has never been in trouble.

But apparently he had gotten into a verbal altercation with a white guy after he rolled through a roundabout and cut him off as they both turned into a gas station. The enraged white guy berated him, and my brother-in-law gave it back to him.

As they both pumped their gas, the guy threatened to call the cops. My brother-in-law said go ahead, got into his car and headed home.

It’s mind boggling that two cops showed up at our house simply based on the word of a white guy over a minor traffic dispute. No witnesses, no physical altercation, no evidence of a crime.

After my wife in a tense exchange demanded the officers get off of our property as she held her brother in the garage, they finally left. Incredibly, he was issued a court summons, which was withdrawn after I called the police chief to object. It is the only time I have ever mentioned my position as editor during a personal complaint.

We were outraged and have no doubt that my brother-in-law would have been face down in our driveway or worse had he stepped outside of that garage. And for what?

Watching the life ebb from George Floyd on TV brought these memories

flooding back. I literally said that could have been me under that officer’s knee. And very few of my white friends can honestly say they had that feeling.

That speaks volumes. Over the years, I have had many discussions with white colleagues and friends about the police, and it’s clear that we live in different worlds.

They have run from police, driven off from traffic stops, and flung clipboards handed to them across highways without any repercussions.

I can’t imagine a black person getting away with that.

Maybe that’s because for many whites they know cops as fathers, brothers, cousins, friends and neighbors.

We, however, know them as a swaggering, disrespectful, and threatening presence.

The history of the police and black people dates back to the slave catch-

ers and overseers. A lot of police officers in our country come to the job generationally with stereotypes and disdain toward black people that has been handed down from the old days.

Whether they want to admit it or not, it is part of the DNA of the profession, and it really doesn’t matter what color the person is who wears the uniform. Those attitudes are ingrained in the culture.

So to fix the problem the culture has to be changed, which is no easy feat. We have had black police chiefs, and that has not made much of a difference. To change the culture you have to send police officers who murder innocent civilians to prison, plain and simple.

Police officers who abuse their power have to be held accountable, just like in any other profession. A clerk miscounts the money, they get fired.

OBITUARIES BARR

David Michael Barr David Michael Barr, loving son, brother, and father of two, passed away on Tuesday, May 12th, at the age of 64.

David was born on July 5th, 1955 in Bryan, Ohio, to Georgia Long and Kenneth Barr. Soon after his birth, the Barr family headed west to Golden, Colorado, where they settled in for the long haul. David and his brother Ken grew up camping, hunting, and fishing with their father and close friends. A love for nature and the Rocky Mountains ran deep within David. Each weekend, as he broke the line of the Continental Divide heading west for his favorite spots, he would declare, “I’m home,” which was usually followed by a joyful exhalation.

David was never stingy with his passion for the outdoors or with his uncommon friendliness. He shared his favorite getaways with his daughter India and son John, as well as many others.

He was also quick to help any person in need. His kind heart, which shone through a smile that could charm the skin off of a snake, was a gift he doled out generously. David’s beautiful kindness will forever be imprinted upon his family and friends.

David made his living as a commercial and residential painter. His company, Barr Painting, serviced the residents of the Denver metropolitan area for nearly 30 years. It was through this profession that he was able to express his artistic nature. He cared deeply about the quality of his work and even more so about how he treated his clients, many of whom became his friends. His children remember him often coming home caked in paint and

sweat, but he always found the energy needed to show them love.

Though David’s life was not long, it was full of fun and adventure. It is often said that outdoor dogs live shorter, yet fuller lives than indoor dogs. David was an outdoor dog if there ever was one. When exploring the wilderness, he covered more miles on foot in a day than many people do in a year. Trails meant little to him, and being lost was a concept he was completely unfamiliar with. During saunters through the woods with his children, whenever they seemed to veer off course, they would ask him if they were lost. His response was always the same, “We aren’t lost, we just aren’t there yet.” In the final years of David’s life, he often appeared lost, but maybe he just wasn’t there yet. Wherever he is now, we imagine he is there, flowing through some gorgeous unknown wild, untethered, and in search of sweet seclusion.

“And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul.” – John Muir David is survived by his mother Georgia, brother Ken, two children, India and John, and his lifelong friends, Mike Wall, Larry Selbe, and Randy Cheney.

Take to the water at Big Soda Lake

Patrick Boland perseveres, helps others despite ‘suicide disease’

or eight years, Patrick Boland, 16, has lived with a pain throughout his body that is so excruciating, it can feel as if he’s wrapped in barbed wire, doused in gasoline and set on fire.

He has had a headache for the past five years: It’s in his eyes, in his gums, everywhere.

He stopped attending school in person in the eighth grade and has had to relearn to walk four times when the constant, unimaginable pain — caused by a rare neurological condition — became too much.

But the Highlands Ranch teen never stays down for too long.

His passion for baseball gets him out of bed each morning. His treatment regimen propels him through each day. His mom, younger sister and several friends who understand his reality bolster his spirits.

And fierce independence and unwavering self-discipline form a bedrock of inner strength and have led him to want to create a community for others in his shoes.

Six years ago, Patrick, with his mother’s help, started the nonprofit Ferocious Fighters to connect those dealing with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome or CRPS. “CRPS is known as the suicide disease,” his mother Meg Boland said.

“Patrick was really in a bad place and didn’t want other people to feel as alone as he did.”

It has taken years of doctors appointments, experimental treatments and grit, but today, Patrick stands strong despite his physical suffering.

“I think I handle the pain really well at this point. But it took a really long time,” he said. “The pain doesn’t affect any functionality anymore — even if it’s as high as it can possibly be.”

The diagnosis Patrick was 8 when he jumped from a step in his front yard and twisted his left ankle. Four months later, he was still in excruciating pain. His ankle was cold to the touch.

It turned purple.

“The doctors did an MRI and called me and said, ‘Everything is normal,’” Meg said. “And I said ‘Well, he hasn’t walked in four months.’ ...We went to the first physical therapy visit and within five minutes of being with Patrick, they said ‘This is CRPS.’” CRPS is a neurological condition that causespatients to experience constant nerve pain even after an injury has healed.

The illness is shrouded in mystery with very little known about its

Patrick Boland, 16, was diagnosed with Complex Regional Pain syndrome when he was 9 years old. A few years later, he started Ferocious Fighters, an international non-profit organization benefitting other kids with CRPS. ELLIOTT WENZLER cause or how to treat it effectively, said Dr. Jeffery Kesten, one of Patrick’s physicians. Experts believe patients with CRPS likely have a genetic predisposition to the disease, but there is virtually always an inciting event, such as a minor injury or surgery.

Sometimes, patients will experience swelling, color or temperature changes and nail or hair growth changes.

“He used to describe it as being wrapped in barbed wire, doused in gasoline and set on fire,” said Meg. One pain scale, called the McGill Pain Index, ranks CRPS higher than amputation of a finger without anesthesia and unprepared childbirth.

After his initial diagnosis in 2012, Patrick continued to receive more and more diagnoses for other conditions sometimes related to CRPS, including a lacking immune system, weakened cartilage and ligaments, frequent muscle cramps and other issues.

He has been in and out of a wheelchair as the nerve pain and other symptoms spread to the rest of his body, as it often does for CRPS patients.

About 200,000 people in the U.S.

experience the condition every year, according to the National Organization for Rare Disorders.

While specialists can offer a variety of treatments, there is no cure.

The best CRPS patients can hope for is finding subtle relief, functioning through the pain or, if they’re one of the lucky ones, remission. Patrick has never entered remission, he said.

People with a CRPS diagnosis also commonly experience suicidal ideations, Kesten said. That’s why the illness has been dubbed “the suicide disease,” according to the Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Sydrome Association, a nonprofit supporting people with CRPS, sometimes known as RSDS. “It must be a horrible place to be,” Kesten said. “I would be concerned if a patient did not have mental health support in a true chronic pain condition because I don’t have a clue how it would not get to you and those around you.”

wanted to help other kids with CRPS by sending them all care packages.

But Meg explained that as a teacher at a Douglas County charter school, she couldn’t afford to send every kid with the disease a package.

“He said, ‘Well, how does Make-AWish do it?’ And I said well, they’re a nonprofit. He said ‘Well, let’s do that,” she remembers.

In 2014, Patrick registered Ferocious Fighters as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.

Six years later, 1,253 kids in 19 countries are linked together through the organization. They range in age from newborns to 21-year-olds and live all over the world. Thirty kids are from Colorado, nearly all living along the Front Range. There are six in Douglas County.

That first year, the organization sent 70 care packages. In 2019, the number jumped to 350. So far, the organization has sent more than 1,000 packages total.

The packages include a blanket, a Ferocious Fighters T-shirt, a keychain, a hand-crocheted hat, a bumper sticker, a journal and rice hand warmers. All have flames on them to symbolize the burning pain that the kids experience.

They also include a hand-written, personalized letter from Patrick.

“I’m so sorry that you’re having such a great amount of sensitivity on your left leg,” he wrote in one letter.

“I know how hard that can be to deal with.”

Each letter ends with his sign-off: “Gentle Hugs, Patrick.”

There also are the quarterly encouragement letters and birthday cards. And every November, Ferocious Fighters organizes a virtual walk to encourage the kids to get moving, an important treatment for their disease.

The group also organizes dozens of support groups for kids and parents throughout the world.

In a note to Meg and Patrick, one mother expressed how much the package meant to her daughter.

“She will not be dancing at the dance or marching with the bands, she cannot keep up with friends and has missed out on several school trips and clubs,” read a note from Nina Nation, the mother of a 13-year-old in Nevada.

“But tonight, she got a package with

Patrick Boland, 16, helps clean up the Mountain Vista baseball field during a practice in February.

ELLIOTT WENZLER her name on it, for her. She smiled. ... She opened the box and cherished everything inside piece by piece.”

Patrick has tried dozens of treatments throughout the years, including a host of prescription medications and experimental treatments. He’s been in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber; tried medical marijuana; taken ketamine pills; attempted painful “exposure therapy” sessions, which try to desensitize the patients’ nerves by vigorously rubbing them with a coarse blanket; seen chiropractors and massage therapists and more.

After eight years, Patrick has found a cocktail of supplements, medications and treatments that work for him. On top of his daily pills, he receives weekly immune boosters through an IV and, every three months, he undergoes an intense ketamine infusion used to treat chronic pain conditions.

One morning in February, Patrick entered Kesten’s infusion clinic wearing a Mac Miller T-shirt, a beanie and sweatpants. At 6 feet 3 inches, he towered over his mother and the infusion director who is administering his treatment. As she prepared the medication, the infusion director

asked what pain he was feeling on a scale from one to 10.

“It’s at an eight, but that’s only in my back and the rest of the body is a five,” Patrick said. “So really, really good.”

His baseline of pain on a daily basis is about a seven out of 10, he said.

It’s Patrick’s second day of the infusion therapy and, already, he’s reporting improved comfort. The treatment isn’t without side effects, however. He vomited the night before and on the way into the clinic. In the past, he’s experienced hallucinations, inability to eat, anxiety and memory loss from the treatment.

Every baseball day is a good day When asked about what parts of his day-to-day life bring him comfort and joy, Patrick has two answers: medication and baseball.

Patrick, who plays a variety of positions including first base and pitcher, wants to play in college with the longterm goal of being on a professional team.

Even though his education is online through Colorado Connections Academy, Patrick plays baseball for Mountain Vista High School in Highlands Ranch.

Patrick Boland, 16, poses in his Mountain Vista baseball uniform before being required to turn it in. The school’s spring baseball season was cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. COURTESY PHOTO “Baseball keeps him alive,” his mom said. “This is his passion, this is what makes him want to get up in the morning.

To his coaches, Patrick is just another athlete, said Ron Quintana, Mountain Vista’s head coach. What makes him stand out isn’t his constant battle with his health, but his deep discipline and fervent work ethic, he said.

“The other day we were working out and he didn’t have a ride to practice, ... so he ran from home,” Quintana said.

“When I ask him to do something, he will sprint to it.”

It may not look like it, but as Patrick trots around the baseball field during practice, helping wherever he can, he’s still in pain.

In February, before his most recent ketamine session, Patrick was experiencing the most intense pain he’s ever endured, he said.

But, he said, there’s a bright side.

“I’m at my worst right now. And I’m so happy to say that,” Patrick said before the treatment. “I’m still playing baseball, I’m being a normal teenager, I’m still hanging out with friends, suffering through school work, everything.”

Jeffco Libraries offering curbside pickup of materials

BY PAUL ALBANI-BURGIO PALBANIBURGIO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

On May 16, Jeffco residents were again able to do one of many things they hadn’t been able to in nearly 10 weeks: drive away from the library with a new book to read.

But while the end experience of cracking open something new to read will is still the same timelessly familiar and welcome one, the process residents take to get their hand on that latest read or watch now looks different.

Still gone, for now, is the time spent browsing the shelves to pick up any book that strikes one’s fancy. Instead, all materials must now be ordered ahead via an online hold with residents then making an appointment to come pick up their books curbside, just as they might a take out a meal from a restaurant.

“What the (library staff) will do is they will have the person who’s picking up the item open their trunk and they’ll put it in the trunk so it’s a touchless transfer of the items,” said Julianne Rist, who is leading Jefferson County Libraries transition to curbside pick-up. Those staff members are also required to wear masks and gloves.

Curbside pick-up is now available at eight out of 10 library locations — Arvada, Columbine, Edgewater, Evergreen, Golden, Lakewood, Standley Lake, and Wheat Ridge.

The libraries are also now accepting returns. However, that does not mean patrons have to again worry about due dates, which were canceled during the crisis.

“We actually have extended the due dates for everything until the end of June,” said Rist. “And then we’ll start with our normal checkout time frames. But of course, you can always renew an item if nobody is waiting for it.”

Rist said that customers wondering about the safety of picking up library books should know that the library’s adoption of curbside delivery was approved by JCPH and is also in line with CDC guidelines. As a precaution, all returned library books are also being quarantined for 72 hours before staff process or shelve them.

While curbside service will continue for the foreseeable future, Gov. Jared Polis has said he will further address the reopening of libraries on June 1.

However, Rist said Jefferson County Public Library staff are already making plans for the future.

Curbside service will also likely continue after libraries are able to welcome patrons again as many patrons will be unlikely to feel comfortable venturing inside right away.

But while Jeffco Public Library awaits a return to more normal inperson operations, Rist said its staff are also considering how the library may evolve in a more permanent way as a result of the pandemic.

“We’re trying to be nimble and take a look ahead to make some predictions about what some of the changes might be and how they might affect us,” Rist said. “And we are having great community conversations about what the needs are and how the library might fit into those needs.”

State honors Centennial foster family Mark and Chastity Gomez serve as community mentors

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

About five years ago, preacher Mark Gomez delivered a sermon about brokenness in communities.

He and his wife felt passionately that families with strained relationships should be put back together.

When a friend adopted a baby, the couple heard about the importance of foster families and adoption, and that resonated with Gomez and his wife, Chastity.

“Statistics were blowing my mind about how many kids are in the (foster) system,” said Chastity Gomez, who, like her husband, didn’t have exposure to the system until then.

Across Arapahoe, Douglas and Jefferson counties, more than 1,000 children are in foster care and 40 children are awaiting an adoptive family on average at any given time, according to Arapahoe County’s website — and the counties have less than 150 foster families to try to meet that need.

The foster system provides temporary housing for youth who are separated from parents by local officials due to neglect, addiction, domestic violence or other problems in a family. Children in the system can live with relatives or foster parents, and it can involve group homes, shelters or other facilities, according to the federal Department of Health and Human Services.

Youth in poverty and racial minorities are over-represented, and older kids have a harder time finding homes because they tend to have more significant trauma, Mark Gomez said.

“There’s an overwhelming number of teens who they can’t get placement for,” Gomez said.

The Gomezes — married for 18 syears — started down the road to tbecoming a foster family about half a decade ago, trudging through paperwork, training and a house inspection. Officials interviewed them and their biological children to see

how stable they were as a family.

After about six months of preparation, they started as a foster family in August 2015. The Gomezes, both 41, live in west Centennial.

Mark is a pastor at Sola Church in Littleton and an IT consultant full-time, and Chastity works for a real-estate company.

In the past five years, they’ve fostered nearly 20 children and youths — at one time having eight kids under one roof, including their four biological kids — and several kids have only stayed with them for up to a couple weeks. Almost all of them were able to find a family member to live with, Chastity Gomez said.

They entered into foster care not with adoption in mind, but one girl, Aubriana, came to them when she was about 10 days old in foster care.

Her mother struggled with addiction. Aubriana was reunified with her mother for about a month and then was brought back to the Gomezes, who adopted her.

Aubriana is now 4 years old, and the Gomezes have “an amazing relationship with her mom,” Chastity Gomez said.

“It’s just amazing to see how far she’s changed and how resilient she’s been,” Gomez said. She added: “Fostering is more than helping these kids — it’s showing glimpses of what family and community could be.

“It’s not just me raising your kid.

It’s us co-teaming it.”

“We’re going to raise her together,” Gomez said. “I have enough love in my heart to say you’re her mom and I’m her mom.”

The family’s four biological kids — all who are in their teens or preteen years — have to “share their mom and dad, and that’s hard in a big family,” Chastity Gomez said.

She and her husband take care to spend time with them, and friends in the community play a role in supporting their kids.

The kids’ “empathy has increased for people’s stories and where they come from,” Chastity Gomez said.

“I’ve seen that (grow) in them over the past five years.”

When a foster child moves on from the Gomez house, “there’s always

Some summer good news, bad news AVENUE FLASHES

John Akal

I

t looks like we are hitting the good news/bad news stage as far as events in the area go. More things are opening up, but others have made the final decision to pull the plug for this summer and made the final call to cancel. A lot of those cancellations were announced a few weeks ago, but others wanted to wait until it got closer to the event to see how things are progressing.

So, let’s start with the good news. A lot of restaurants and even some of the bars that serve food are able to open their locations for dine-in service. We’re going to have to help them out a bit by being understanding of the restrictions and rules put in place and do our best to follow them so this illness doesn’t start to flair up again and force them to have to close. There are less tables available and you need to wear masks when not eating. You also need to limit your group size to eight people or less and try not to wander around the restaurant any more than necessary. You also need to be aware that you may have to wait outside for a table to open up, so be prepared for that possibility.

I know that some of the places that have outdoor patios will begin having live music once again, but they ask you to be a little patient and stick to the social distancing standards in place. Trying to dance 6 ft. apart is probably not the best thing to do right now.

It might be a better time to just sit back and just listen to the musicians on stage. I know they all appreciate seeing smiling faces digging the sounds. Check with your favorite

MARKET SEASON

venue’s website and social media pages.

Those will give you the most up to date information on what they all have planned.

I’ll have more updates on that soon.

Of course, June is here and that’s the traditional kick off for our local summer festivals and activities. A bit of good news on that front is that one of Golden’s favorite warm weather happenings is actually going to open on June 6. It’s the Golden Farmers Market. It runs on Saturday mornings on 10th Street right next to the Golden Library and is sponsored by the Golden Chamber of Commerce.

This year there are going to have to be a few changes, as you might expect. One thing that you will notice is that there will be fewer booths spaced farther apart and all of them will be food vendors. Gone for this year will be the arts and crafts or other non food or grocery items. Also, there won’t be any tables or chairs for now. They want to encourage all food consumption to take place away from the market. Face protection will be required and they will be providing hand washing and sanitizing stations as well. The sponsors want to encourage everyone to adhere to the current health standards to stay safe.

The Golden Chamber of Commerce has put forth a few good suggestions to keep things running smoothly and safely. As we mentioned, keep those social distancing guidelines in mind. Also, they advise you to have a game plan and think ahead about what you want to shop for. Shop quickly and efficiently and try to limit your visit

to 30 minutes or less. Shop solo and don’t crowd. Mind the queue, distancing should be marked. Let those friendly vendors serve you, there’s no self serve or sampling.

Minimize money handling by having exact change when possible or using credit cards or contactless payments. Also, on your first visit, check out which farmers offer the ability to call and preorder things so you can just pick them up on your next visit.

Following those guidelines should help insure that the Golden Farmer’s Market stays open all Summer long. It’s a fun place to shop and brings some healthy food items to your family’s table.

Now, for some bad news. This year’s Golden Fourth of July Festival and fireworks have been canceled. I’m sure this will be the case for almost all of these things in the area. It’s just not safe to have large crowds gathering right now. But, I want to mention this as a caution. Golden has also implemented Stage 1 fire restrictions currently to help prevent wildfires and minimize virus exposure to firefighters. That means they will be pretty strict about personal fireworks use. It’s illegal and carries a hefty fine. So, don’t make a fireworks run to Wyoming to compensate for it. Yes, you will get busted. No bottle rocket wars, OK? John Akal is a well-known jazz artist/drummer and leader of the 20-piece Ultraphonic Jazz Orchestra.

Virtual Juneteenth Music Festival will be celebration of freedom Event will present full day of online programming STAFF REPORT

A full day of online programming that includes panels, performances, a marketplace and the Dream Big awards will make up Denver’s newly imagined virtual Juneteenth Music Festival.

The 2020 online festival will take place June 18 on www.JuneteenthMusicFestival.com.

According to a news release, the goal of the festival is to educate the larger population about the American milestone and mobilize to make Juneteenth a national holiday.

The Dream Big awards honor individuals who have set high standards for achievement in business, education, arts, and service, as well as community activists, leaders and entrepreneurs who dream big enough to have a positive impact on their communities and the African American community as a whole, the release said.

This year’s recipients include Joy Ann Reid, of the “Reid This Reid That” Podcast and MSNBC; Tiffany Aliche, “The Budgetnista”; Chanel Turner, founder of The Black Owned Wine and Spirits Festival; and John Burns, founder of Icon Talks.

The 2020 Virtual Juneteenth Music Festival acknowledges the importance of the arts and the role music played in communication among enslaved African Americans. This year’s platform is a global stage for musicians, vocalists and artists to celebrate the importance of art, storytelling and inclusion.

The full day of programming will include live content such as a women’s panel, LGBTQ panels, an “Icon Chat” with Sen. Rhonda Fields and more celebrating the African American and Black experience and Juneteenth history.

Historically, Juneteenth takes place in the historic Five Points neighborhood of Denver and is the largest Juneteenth celebration in the country. Presenter JMF Corp takes on the challenge of continuing this tradition amidst social distancing guidelines.

Would much, if any, of the post Minneapolis event mayhem, now occurring in Denver and other cities, have happened, if the frustrated, fear driven, and unemployed rioters still had their jobs?

Do we not see by their actions yet another manifestation of the old adage: ‘The Devil makes work for idle hands!’?

Isn’t it well past the time for Mayor Hancock, Governor Polis, et al to immediately end their war on jobs (aka the lockdown) and get as many people back to work as possible?

What will you do to help this happen?

Russell W Haas, Golden Mail voting should be right A recent story from 9News hails Colorado as a leader in mail-in ballot voting (April 9). The law went into effect in 2013 and allows all voters to get a ballot in the mail. In the last presidential election in 2016, nearly three-out-of-four voters returned their

The argument that we ask police to risk their lives and make split decisions is no excuse for them being wrong when making life-and-death decisions. They should have a higher standard to be right when using lethal force, not a lower one.

Reforming policing in America will require changing their culture, rein-

I am, in short, an aging horse, and if I had my choice it would be Seabiscuit: a plucky, unlikely-looking, top money-winning racehorse.

I recommend Laura Hillenbrand’s book, “Seabiscuit: An American Legend,” but not the film based on the book, or the 1949 Shirley Temple film “The Story of Seabiscuit.”

Watch it for actual footage of some of Seabiscuit’s races and skip the parts where Temple swoons over the jockey.

The debit cards, as an alternative to easily deposited checks, were a shrewd idea. The obstacles to activate them and the fact many will never be used partially or fully saves someone money.

mail-in ballots in Colorado, the story noted.

President Trump has opposed mail-in balloting, calling it corrupt.

He recently took to Twitter to oppose what he said was Michigan’s recent mailing of absentee ballots to the state’s voters. “This was done illegally and without authorization by a rogue Secretary of State. I will ask to hold up funding to Michigan if they want to go down this Voter Fraud path!” the president tweeted. Trump has threatened Nevada in a similar way.

Americans in every state should be allowed to vote by mail if they choose to, especially in the middle of a pandemic and if they are worried about their health. Mail-in voting does not create measurable voter fraud, which is still rare in our system. It is a powerful moment in history right now and it is important that we stand up to him to ensure that everyone can access mail-in ballots if they choose.

Trump is worried about his reelection prospects, which is why he is eager to attack mail-in voting. We need a new administration that allows every American to use their voice to vote either in person or mail-in. Please vote for a change in November!

venting their training and unerring accountability.

I’m exhausted watching black men die at the hands of police. I hate seeing the fear in my daughters’ eyes from knowing I could die, begging for air, under the knee of a police officer.

I don’t hate cops. I fear them. But I’m about to turn 66 years old, and I’d like

only one who looks the way I do.

I don’t know what it’s like being sent out into the world and being told that my job is to be the one thing standing between good people and chaos and anarchy. To be the sheepdog between the wolves and the sheep.

I don’t know what it’s like being characterized and stigmatized by the worst actions of the worst members of the group who share elements of my appearance.

I don’t know what was going through the mind of Derek Chauvin for nine minutes as he slowly choked the life out of another man.

I know even less about what was going through the minds of the other three officers who were on scene and did nothing to de-escalate the situation.

I don’t know if I would have had the courage, as a bystander, to do anything about it.

What I think I might know is this:

the good cop and the good black man should be friends, and should be powerful allies. Because they both know what it is to be asked to do the impossible in this world: the cop is asked to safeguard justice in a world without peace, and the black man is asked to behave peacefully in a world built on hundreds of years of injustice.

It’s easy, in the wake of the horrors of the last week, to sit out here in suburbia and tsk tsk, as if we know anything. But a wise person once said “Humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.” Maybe this week, it might be good to give some thoughts to the people we’ve put in impossible situations, and try to lighten their burdens. Be well and be safe, my friends.

swimming and other related activities) under current public health guidelines. The main concern continues to be the crowding that we know will happen, and the resulting inability to maintain safe social distancing,” he explained. “We will continue to reevaluate all closures and restrictions each month as new public health guidance is released from the State and County.”

Sprafke emphasized the important of all park visitors paying close attention to the rules, as not doing so could cause amenity usage to be reclosed.

“All park users need to realize that our parks are very busy. We need everyone to have patience with other users and follow public health guidelines,” he said. “These simple steps help to ensure that everyone can enjoy the parks safely.”

Bear Creek Lake Park remains open from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, with other amenity closures occurring.

For more details on park activities and restrictions, call 303-697-6159 or visit Lakewood.org/BCLP. Visit a virtual arts fair An arts fair is a great way to meet some fascinating up-and-coming artists and support the work they do.

While arts and farmers markets are figuring out new safe approaches, the Colorado Artists Virtual Art Fair is bringing the experience home.

Running from 10 a.m. on Friday, June 5 through 3 p.m. on Monday, June 8, the event features six local artists: Liz Covert (jewelry), Lauri R. Dunn (digital art and photography), Victoria Eubanks (encaustic), Amelia

Furman (mixed media), Katie Hoffman (painting) and Rita Vali (ceramics).

Clarke’s Concert of the Week - All in WA The state of Washington is home to one of the most eclectic and important music scenes in the country.

And like everywhere else, it’s home to scores of people suffering during the COVID-19 crisis. Artists like Pearl Jam, Ben Gibbard, Dave Matthews, Sir Mix-a-Lot and other Seattle musicians are joining forces for All in WA, a streaming concert at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, June 10.

Funds will be raised for relief efforts across the state, and the concert will be streamed on Amazon’s Twitch channel and will be available afterwards on Amazon Prime.

Streaming style - ‘Breeders’ I’m not a parent, but I’ve been reliably informed that one of the keys to making it through the experience is finding things to laugh at. That’s the basic premise behind the hilarious (and occasionally painful) British comedy, “Breeders.”

The show follows parents Ally (Daisy Haggard) and Paul (Martin Freeman) as they navigate parenthood while juggling careers and extended family. The show has just the right amount of absolutely biting British humor, but doesn’t skimp on the moments of genuine humanity.

The first season is available ondemand and Hulu.
