MY NAME IS

HELEN STARBUCK

Author, OR nurse, retired in Arvada Getting into writing I like to joke that I’ve always written. I started in junior high — but that was about the Beetles. I’ve written off-andon my whole life. It has pretty much always been for private stuff. Until May, I worked as an editor for a nursing journal. I’m an operating room nurse by profession. And this was a specialty journal for OR nurses. I did some writing for that, mostly editing. Inspiration for my first book I actually started writing this story in 1984 when I worked at Children’s Hospital. I helped take care of a young woman who had very puzzling neurological symptoms and it took the doctors and really long time to figure out what was wrong. When they did it was a surprise. And of course if I tell you, you’ll know the ending to the book. I thought at the time that it would make a great story and I started three or four chapters. Then I got a new job with the journal and then I got a husband and then a few years later, a daughter. So the story kind of went on the shelf.

So, I did change the ending and my editor was a lot happier with it too. Those kind of people are really valuable.

Picking the story back up In 2015, I was moving and in the process of going through stuff I found the story — the first few chapters. I read it and decided I still liked it. That’s when I started working to finish it. It took about a year to get everything written and get it to an editor before it was published. It was published in October last year. “The Mad Hatter’s Son” — it’s the first in the series and the first book I wrote. It was a big switch. Most of my writing has been short stories, commentaries on life. So this is the first full length book. The book It’s a mystery that’s set in Denver. They always say write what you know, so the main character is an OR nurse. And she gets very reluctantly dragged into caring for a friend that she’s been estranged from. The friend had a miscarriage and she’s not recovering. She thinks there is something else going on. Her husband and all her doctors think that it’s related to the miscarriage. Which it could be, based on the vague symptoms she had. The two end up arguing and they go their own ways. Not long after the sick friend supposedly commits suicide. The rest of the book is the main character, Annie, trying to figure out what happened. The process It was a lot of fun. I have really

Millions of minutes read during library summer program STAFF REPORT

Nearly 45,000 residents read more than 48 million minutes as part of Jefferson County Public Library’s summer reading program, according to a news release from the library district. Summer 2018’s numbers are up from 43,000 participants and about 37 million minutes read in 2017, the release said. Because Jeffco residents exceeded the library district’s goals, Foothills Animal Shelter will receive $500, compliments of the Jefferson

County Library Foundation, the release said. “We’re beyond excited to see our summer reading program continue to break records year after year,” Pam Nissler, the library district’s executive director, said in the news release. “Summer reading helps us create a community of readers in Jefferson County while helping kids maintain grade-level proficiencies over the summer.” Jeffco readers earned prizes for their reading, including food, books and amusement park tickets for the kids and teens, and a drawing for

movie tickets for the adults. The program also included school incentives. Participating schools competed for five $800 prizes to support their school library or a literacy program in their school. The prizes were awarded thanks to contributions from the Library Board of Trustees and the Jefferson County Library Foundation. The winning schools were those with the highest percentage of program finishers, compared to their enrollments. They are Foothills Preschool, Dennison Elementary, Bell

Middle School, Green Mountain High School and Addenbrooke Classical Academy. Summer Reading Fun Facts: • 4,204 babies “read” 2,113,185 minutes • 18,549 children read 14,358,843 minutes • 7,245 teens read 8,640,396 minutes • 14,930 adults read 24,401,889 minutes • 52 percent of registered readers ﬁnished the program (minimum of 16 hours of reading for teens/adults; 8 hours for kids and babies)

Subdivisions With No HOA Can Still Have Covenants, But Who’s to Enforce Them?

Although the often dreaded Homeowners Association (or “HOA”) has been around for a long time, its widespread use goes back only a few decades. Prior to, say, 1980, it was common for new subdivisions to have covenants, but no reasonable way to enforce them. This begs the question; “why have covenants if they can’t be enforced?” Enter the HOA, an entity designed and created to answer that question. Many early covenants had provisions that after 30 years or so the majority of homeowners would have to petition to renew them. Some covenants had the opposite provision — i.e., they automatically renewed unless a majority of homeowners agreed to abandon them. All covenants, whether still valid or not, are recorded and thus provided with other title docs. Let’s say you live in a subdivision with still enforceable covenants but no HOA. The only way to enforce the covenants against a homeowner who is in violation of them would be for one or more homeowners to file a civil suit against the offender. Obviously, that is not practical, which is probably why developers of new subdivisions started including an HOA in their CC&Rs — Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions.

Some older subdivisions such as 6th Avenue West have created “neighborhood associations” with voluntary dues (usually under $100 per year) which are used to create community through various activities, such as picnics and newsletters. That sense of community can in turn contribute to social pressure for members of the community to abide by the provisions set forth in the covenants. Lakewood Estates, a 1980s subdivision across Jewell Avenue from White Fence Farm, has taken this approach a step further. This voluntary HOA exerts pressure and has even shown a willingness to take legal action against residents who violate provisions of their older, but still existing covenants. What neighborhood associations can’t do is to levy fines against homeowners. HOA fines can become liens against the property, too, so they always get paid, along with unpaid dues, even if only at closing upon sale. Do you have experience in dealing with old and possibly unenforceable covenants? I’d love to hear about it. Contact me at 303525-1851 or email me at Jim@GoldenReal Estate.com. I may do a follow-up article on this topic.

As Manufacturers Gear Up to Build Only Electric Cars, Here’s Your Chance to Learn What’s in Your Future By now it should be clear to you — as it is clear to the automotive industry — that electric vehicles are neither a passing fad, nor something that only the wealthy can afford. Some manufacturers, including BMW and the Volkswagen Group (12 brands from seven European countries) have stated that they will convert their entire fleets to electric propulsion within the next 10 or so years, which makes sense since several countries have indicated they will ban the sale of cars with internal combustion engines by 2030 or 2040. If you haven’t seriously considered owning an electric car, perhaps now is a good time to investigate what is already being offered by different manufacturers.

Drive Electric Week, presented by Plug-In America, the Sierra Club, and the Electric Auto Association and sponsored by Nissan Leaf, is your opportunity to meet and talk with current owners of electric cars, get your questions answered, and even take a ride in one or more models. For the 5th year, the parking lot of Golden Real Estate, at 17695 S. Golden Road, is one of many venues for this event. Already 27 owners are registered to bring their EVs, and another 30 or so people have registered at www.DriveElectricWeek.info to meet them on Saturday, Sept. 8th, 10 am to 3 pm. Denver and Boulder have their events the following Wednesday. (Details are on that same website.)

The Finishes in This Golden Ranch Will Blow You Away! This home at 19054 Eagle Ridge Drive is just 100 yards from my own home in Stonebridge at Eagle Ridge, the subdivision west of Heritage Road at the foot of Lookout Mountain. It was built with the same floor plan as my house, but what the owner has done is so stunning and beautiful that I had to Facetime Rita before leaving the listing appointment to show her what was possible for $950,000 our house! I thought we had an open floor plan, but they took it to a whole new level, and I love it! Moreover, the hardwood floors, the kitchen upgrade, the metal railing around the stairs to the walk-out basement — it all works so beautifully. You really have to visit this home’s website, www.StonebridgeHome.net, to look at the narrated video tour (with drone footage) and the still pictures to get a feel for it. You’ll then call your agent or me to demand a private showing! Here are the raw facts: There are two bedrooms on the main floor, both with huge walk-in closets and en suite bathrooms, and two more bedrooms and a second family room/home theater in the walk-out basement. You can see the front patio in the picture; there’s an expansive deck (partly covered) with patio below in the back. Separate HVAC systems serve each floor. There are 4,714 finished square feet. I’ll be holding it open Sunday, Sept. 9, 11am - 2pm.

One of These Arvada Homes Might Be Perfect for You! This home at 6535 Balsam Street is in the 1960's neighborhood known as Scenic Heights. It is a well deserved name for this home which is on a south facing slope with glimpses of the Front Range amid mature trees. A 1959 example of mid-century modern architecture, this home has refinished original hardwood floors, as well as additional hard-wood and tile on the main level, plus a large deck and an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. The sunny walkout basement is fully finished with its own full kitchen. The 2car garage is extra long, accommodating a nice size workshop and doors to both the backyard and basement. Take a video tour at www.ArvadaRanch.info. David Dlugasch will be holding it open on Saturday, Sept. 8, 3 to 5 pm. This 4-bedroom, 2½-bath tri-level with basement is at 6909 Quay Street, just east of the Arvada Center, and is priced to sell! It's on an unusually quiet street. With wood decks both front and back, it has a beautifully updated kitchen and updated bathrooms plus a garage/ workshop/shed that is a handyman's dream with its own 50-amp sub-panel! Watch the narrated video tour at www.ArvadaHome.info, then call your agent or me for a private showing. It, too, will be open on Saturday, Sept. $375,000 8, 3 to 5 pm. These two homes are only a mile or so apart, so plan on seeing them both this Saturday! $475,000

Trail blazing debate in Golden Singletrack sidewalks spark community debate

A singletrack sidewalk is a natural surface trail built next to, or in close proximity of, an existing paved multiuse trail or bike path. Pictured is a rendition of a portion of the proposed singletrack sidewalk pilot project, which would stretch roughly from Apex Park to Sixth Avenue in south Golden. It would consist of six segments that vary in length but total a little less than one mile.

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When he thinks about a singletrack sidewalk, Golden resident Al Head, one of the founders of the Golden Giddyup Trail Team, imagines local kids using it, riding their mountain bikes with big smiles on their faces. “We want a place where kids and beginners can be on their bikes on a dirt trail that was built specifically with their skills and progression in mind,” Head said. But not everyone shares this vision when they think of singletrack sidewalks. For example, the Friends of Kinney Run imagine mountain bikers of all ages riding recklessly through the “serene open space at all hours of the day.” “We are not anti-mountain bikers. We are pro open space,” said Golden resident Traci Neuman Lacey who is involved with Friends of Kinney Run. “If this pilot fails, it will be costly to repair. How can, and will, this land be restored?” Whether opposed to or in favor of, singletrack sidewalks have been on the minds of Golden residents for a number of years. A singletrack sidewalk is a natural surface trail built next to, or in close proximity of, an existing paved multiuse trail or bike path. Though they are a relatively new concept across the nation, conversations about implementing a singletrack sidewalk in Golden began roughly following the opening of the Golden Bike Park — located in Tony Grampsas Park, 4471 Salvia St. — in 2010. It did not gain traction at the time, but was brought to city council again in 2012 and 2015. In 2016, two groups — one on the north side of Golden and one on the south side — approached the city again about singletrack sidewalks. Golden’s Parks, Recreation & Museums Advisory Board then requested the groups work together on a combined proposal. Fast-forward to January 2018 when the Golden Gid-

dyup Trail Team submitted a revised, formal proposal to the city for a singletrack sidewalk pilot project to be located in south Golden. At a Aug. 28 Golden’s Parks, Recreation & Museums Advisory Board meeting at Shelton Elementary School about 200 people attended to discuss the proposal. The proposed singletrack sidewalks pilot project would consist of six segments that vary in length, but total a little less than one mile, stretching from Apex Park to Sixth Avenue constructed alongside the existing multiuse trail on city property. The singletrack sidewalk would be constructed by the Golden Giddyup Trail Team in partnership with neighborhood organizations and Golden’s Parks and Recreation Department. “This is work we’ve done before with Jeffco Open Space,” Head said, adding the Golden Giddyup Trail Team is experienced and knowledgeable about what it would entail to build a trail for beginners. “The trail design can mitigate many of the concerns.” Golden Giddyup is also offering to take care of ongoing maintenance of the singletrack sidewalk. But Lacey argues that the Golden Giddyup is a volunteer group with no formal commitment to the city, and Friends of Kinney Run foresee that the new trail would eventually become the responsibility of the city.

JOIN THE CONVERSATION The singletrack sidewalk proposal is on the Golden’s Parks, Recreation & Museums Advisory Board’s agenda for Sept. 18. Public comment will be accepted at this meeting. Additional input can be provided on GuidingGolden.com or by writing to city council and/or staff.

This graphic shows a potential singletrack dirt path in a Golden neighborhood. Supporters of singletrack sidewalks say it would provide a dirt trail where children and beginners could progress their skills at mountain biking. Opposers say the trail is redundant because there is already a multiuse trail system in place and the trails cause damage to the natural environment and disturb wildlife. PHOTO COURTESY OF THE GOLDEN GIDDYUP

Patrick Vitry, a volunteer park ranger for Jeffco Open Space who is involved with Friends of Kinney Run, points to more concerns brought up by neighbors. He believes the neighborhood and environmental impacts are the most concerning issues. “This is not opinion, it’s a fact,” he said. “Building a trail would destroy the environment and interrupt wildlife.” Ben Davis, another founder of the Golden Giddyup, pointed out that the Trails Team would take all precautions to minimize environmental impacts.

“We’re not looking to damage our neighborhoods,” he said. “This is an idea proposed by neighbors for our neighborhood and our community.” Another argument is that the singletrack sidewalk would be redundant, located in an area that is not underserved, Vitry said. There are 230, or more, miles of trails in Jefferson County, he said. “The existing trail system is adequate to meet the needs of multiuse trail users for a connection to nature,” Vitry said. “Riding on dirt does not change the nature experience.” But Head points out that

Friends of Kinney Run also has information about the singletrack sidewalk proposal on its website, https://friendsofkinneyrun.com. some mountain bike trails, such as on Apex or North Table Mountain, are too dangerous for young or beginner riders. Families want a place where they can share a passion of mountain biking with their children, Head said. “There’s a long history of citizens asking for something like this in Golden,” he said. The intention, Head added, is to make it a “valuable, community entity.”

Jeffco health brings awareness to opioid addiction Event features education, remembrance opportunities BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Jefferson County Public Health hosted an End Overdose Jeffco event on Aug. 29. The event featured keynote speakers, resources, the Office of Behavioral Health’s Opioid Memorial Wall and a presentation by a public health nurse, Chris Hammond, on overdose response and prevention training. Fast facts on the opioid crisis As defined by Lift The Label, a public awareness campaign on opioid addiction developed by the Colorado Department of Human Services’ Office of Behavioral Health, “opioids are natural or synthetic chemicals that interact with opioid receptors on nerve cells in the body and brain, and reduce the intensity of pain signals and feelings of pain.” Prescription opioids can be prescribed by a doctor to treat or relieve pain following an injury or surgery, or for certain chronic health conditions. However, they are highly

addictive and “someone can become dependent on opioids within seven days of use,” states Lift The Label. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment states that nearly 224,000 Coloradans misuse prescription drugs each year. Treatment for opioid addiction is available. Medicationassisted treatment has a success rate of 60-to-90 percent, according to Lift The Label. Known by the acronym MAT, it combines long-term behavioral therapy and counseling with FDA- approved medications “to provide a `whole-patient’ approach to the treatment of substance use disorders.” There are 22 opioid treatment programs that offer MAT in Colorado. People dependent on opioids can overdose, which can be fatal. According to the World Health Organization, about 45 percent of drug users experience a nonfatal overdose and about 70 percent of people who are dependent on opioids, or knows someone who is, witnesses an overdose in their

lifetime. The World Health Organization “recommends that naloxone be made available to people likely to witness an opioid overdose, as well as training in the management of opioid overdose.” Naloxone is medication designed to rapidly reverse opioid overdose. It works by restoring normal respiration to a person whose breathing has slowed or stopped as a result of an opioid overdose. Administering naloxone to someone suffering overdose of opioids is protected under Colorado’s Good Samaritan Law. There are three FDA-approved

“Substance abuse is a complex issue. We need to treat drugrelated harm as a public health issue and invest in proven practices that can save lives. To help individuals struggling with addiction, it requires collaboration from community partners and those with a lived experience.” — Jeff Hanley, the opioid initiatives program coordinator at Jefferson County Public Health. formulations of naloxone and more than 200 pharmacies in Colorado carry naloxone.

A parade for the dogs Third annual Toby’s Pet Parade & Fair takes place Sept. 8 BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

If you think there isn’t anything much cuter than seeing a dog dressed up in a creative costume, then imagine about a hundred making their way along Washington Avenue in downtown Golden. “It seems like people are getting more and more creative with the costumes every year,” said Liz Maddy, Foothills Animal Shelter’s marketing and community engagement manager. “Everyone has so much love for their pets. This is a fun way to show off your pet and support Foothills Animal Shelter.” The third annual Toby’s Pet Parade & Fair, a fundraiser for Foothills Animal Shelter, takes place 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sept. 8. Golden residents Jason and Marlo Quade have been involved with Foothills Animal Shelter for a number of years. Jason is currently the president of the Friends of Foothills Animal Shelter Board of Directors and the two have attended the event as spectators before. But this year, the Quades are excited to participate in the parade for

They have three dogs, but will be bringing Alee, a female English cocker spaniel, dressed as a ladybug. “It’s fun to see all the pups dressed up,” Marlo Quade said. But moreover, she added, it’s important to support the local animal shelter. “It’s a community-centric shelter. They do more than just house homeless pets.” She points to microchipping, vaccines, spay/neuter and other low-cost services the shelter offers to the community. The staff and volunteers “give so much time, energy and love to the animals,” Jason Quade said. “And when the community reciprocates, it pumps them up to want to give even more to the community’s pets.” Meet Miss Layla Mae, the 2018 Toby’s Pet Parade grand marshal When Brooke Dahlinger of Superior had to put her dog to sleep last November after being together for 13 years, she visited all the local shelters in search for a new four-legged

companion. After a few months, on a Saturday night in February, Dahlinger found herself browsing Foothills Animal Shelter’s website when a picture of Layla’s face came up. “I went in to go see her first thing in the morning the next day,” Dahlinger said, who was familiar with the shelter because of her volunteer work in 2009. She knew at first sight that Layla was the one for her. Layla is an American bully, a new breed that came about circa 2013. She is what Dahlinger calls a “throw away momma,” meaning she is a female dog raised by a “backyard breeder” for the sole purpose of having puppies for the breeder to sell. Because of continual breeding every time they go into heat, which is about every six months, Dahlinger said, the dogs eventually become too sick to reproduce. Or, they no longer produce quality puppies to sell, she said. This is when they are discarded, Dahlinger said.

Layla and Brooke Dahlinger of Superior pose for a photo shoot when Foothills Animal Shelter announced Layla would be this year’s Toby’s Pet Parade & Fair’s grand marshal. Dahlinger rescued Layla, an American bully, after she was discarded by a breeder and brought to Foothills Animal Shelter by a good Samaritan. COURTESY PHOTO A good Samaritan found Layla in a park, tied up with a male dog of unknown relation to her, and took her to Foothills Animal Shelter. She was extremely underweight and suffered from a lot of hair loss. A veterinarian determined she was about three years old and had already had up to six litters of puppies — one being quite recent to the time she was discovered. “I rescue to save,” Dahlinger said. “Once I saw how bad of shape she was in, I wanted her even more.” Dahlinger adopted Layla on Feb. 4. Layla will be this year’s grand marshal in the third annual Toby’s Pet Parade & Fair and will be participating in meet-and-greets during the entire event. Layla is going to love the attention, and she deserves it, Dahlinger said. “She’s sweet and docile and everything a shelter dog represents,” Dahlinger said. “She overcame a bad situation and found her forever, loving home.”

Jeffco test scores exceed state, gaps persist in low-income test scores The most significant gain was in seventh-grade math BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Jefferson County Public Schools’ Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) and college entrance test results for the 2017-

18 school year outpace the state of Colorado for achievement and growth data on CMAS and PSAT/ SAT assessments, even as the district’s achievement gap remains. One of the school success stories in Jeffco includes Green Gables Elementary in Lakewood, celebrating English language arts growth results that increased from the 37th percentile in 2016 to 56th in 2018.

STAFF REPORT

Celebrate Wheat Ridge and its one of a kind charm at RidgeFest. This full day of fun will be held Saturday, September 8 from 3-9 p.m., in the heart of the Ridge at 38 district. Localworks’ RidgeFest is a free event highlighting the unique character and culture of Wheat Ridge. The event will take place on the Green on Ridge at 38 (7101 W 38th Avenue). The event will have fun for the whole family and will feature four bluegrass bands, a classic car show, cottage foods, vendors, food trucks, local beer and wine, lots of kids’ activities and more. This year’s headliner, Oakhurst, will take the stage at 7:15 p.m. Back by popular demand is the Chalk Art

Fest. Wheat Ridge resident, Olivia McLeod has a passion for chalk art, and last year, she and her family organized the Chalk Art Fest with the support of the Wheat Ridge Cultural Commission. Again this year, the artists will work all morning and afternoon to create works of art. Between 3-6 p.m., RidgeFest attendees will witness the artists finishing their pieces. After 6 p.m., attendees can view the finished work. Those interested in showing off their classic car or their winning recipe can learn more at Ridgeat38.com. Sponsorship and volunteer opportunities are also still available. Contact Carolyn Doran at CDoran@WeAreLocalworks.org for more information. For a full schedule of RidgeFest events, visit Ridgeat38.com.

Simply put, it’s fun to spend the day with the Golden Fire Department. “They’re always super friendly,” said Tamara Sturdavant, Golden City Brewery’s general manager. “It’s hard to imagine the community without them.” On Sept. 8, the Golden community will have two opportunities to interact with, learn from and support the Golden Fire Department. In partnership with the University of Colorado Burn Center and Colorado State Patrol, Golden Fire Department is hosting its eight annual Safety and Preparedness Da, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sept. 8 at Golden Fire Station #1, 911 10th St., in downtown Golden. “It is a free event where citizens can learn about

not only fire safety, but life safety and injury prevention in general,” said Jerry Stricker, Golden Fire Department’s deputy chief/fire marshal. An approximate 10-minute walk away, more of Golden’s firefighters will be hanging out at Golden City Brewery. The brewery is hosting its 24th annual GoldenFest from open, 11 a.m., to close. “A lot of the Golden Fire Department is made up of volunteers,” Sturdavant said. “We like to help support them.” One hundred percent of the proceeds from sales of a limited edition GoldenFest mug will go directly to the fire department. The mug costs $10. The design is unique each year, Sturdavant said, and this year, it includes both the fire department logo and the Golden City Brewery logo.

Plein Air artists featured in Plan Jeffco exhibit STAFF REPORT

Twenty-five professional artists will paint from dawn to dusk at one Jeffco Open Space location each day from Sept. 10-15 as part of In Plein Sight, a week-long live painting event. PLAN Jeffco, a nonprofit volunteerled organization of open space advocates based in Jefferson County, is the organizer of the event, which also includes a gallery exhibit Sept. 12-16 at the Golden Community Center, 1470 10th St., Golden. Freshly painted works will be added to the gallery each day as the artists continue to produce new pieces during the week, and all artwork will be available for purchase. A portion of the proceeds will benefit PLAN Jeffco’s educational outreach. In Plein Sight launched as the largest, first-of-its-kind plein air painting event in Jeffco’s Open Space in Octo-

ber 2016. The launch event was wildly successful with more than $35,000 of artwork sold. Literally meaning “open air,” plein air was developed in the mid-19th century by French impressionists including Monet, Pissarro, and Renoir. “We are very excited to bring In Plein Sight back to Jefferson County this year,” In Plein Sight event chair and longtime PLAN Jeffco board member John Litz said in a news release. “It has become more important than ever to preserve our open space as the Colorado population continues to boom. We feel this event is the perfect way to celebrate our parks and inspire a new generation to learn how to both conserve and enjoy the gorgeous landscape that draws so many to our beautiful state.” “Our volunteer-led board works closely with Jeffco Open Space to advocate for the conservation of key

lands,” PLAN Jeffco Co-President Michelle Poolet said. “We are dedicated to the preservation of our green spaces and we feel that now more than ever, education is a necessity to ensure our open space parks and trails are properly maintained so they can

THE POLAR EXPRESS BY-THE-NUMBERS 13,000 — approximate number of total ticket sales this year.

1,800 — tickets sold as presale on Aug. 1 for Colorado Railroad Museum members. A total of about 2,000 were sold before they went on sale to the general public.

Thomas the Tank Engine returns to Colorado Railroad Museum for three weekends

8,000 — tickets sold on the first day they were available to the general public, which was Aug. 22. It sold out of the remaining approximate 3,000 tickets the next day.

When Thomas comes back to the Colorado Railroad Museum this year, it’s likely that grandparents who read the book as a child will bring their children, who watched the show on television growing up. “And now their kids are getting to ride on a real train pulled by Thomas,” said Danielle Ghear, the event and volunteer manager at the Colorado Railroad Museum. A Day Out With Thomas “really brings Thomas to life for kids and families.” After visiting Golden in the middle of summer last year, Thomas the Tank Engine is back to his regular fall visit this year — The A Day Out With Thomas event returns to the Colorado Railroad Museum for three weekends in September — Sept. 8 and 9, 15 and 16, and 22 and 23. “Thomas’ stories have a timeless quality to them,” said the museum’s director Donald Tallman. “He’s a hero to these little kids.” This year, a diesel locomotive will help Thomas pull the train around the 15-acre railyard, encircling the A Day Out With Thomas festival taking place on the grounds. Festival activities include visiting with the character Sir Topham Hatt and photo ops with an inflatable Toby, also a character in the stories. More activities include the Imagination Station where children can play with Thomas toy trains, a petting zoo, a magician and many other Thomas-related festivi-

POLAR EXPRESS SELLS OUT IN 23 DAYS The Polar Express, a theatrical re-creation of the 1985 book by Chris Van Allsburg put on by the Colorado Railroad Museum, is a magical experience for families. It has become a holiday tradition for many and tickets sold out in record time this year — 23 days in August, three months

before the first performance. Only a few are remaining, and all are single-passenger tickets. These may be good for a person wanting to join a group that already has tickets, or for one parent or guardian to bring one child under two years of age who can sit on the adult ticket holder’s lap.

ties. New this year is a hay bale maze on the grounds, Tallman added. Tallman recommends to plan about two-to-three hours to experience all that A Day Out With Thomas offers. A train ride lasts 20 minutes, and rides depart about every 45 minutes. Attendees should arrive at least an hour prior to their train’s departure. Tickets cost $20 each during off-peak

ride times, 8:30-9:15 a.m. and 1:45-4:45 p.m. Tickets for peak ride times, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., cost $25 each. A train ride ticket is required for all attendees age 2 and older. General admission is not available during A Day Out With Thomas dates. Tickets are available online or can be purchased as walk up onsite. A ticket also includes access to the

museum’s exhibits and model trains, Tallman said. As Thomas is introducing the next generation of rail fans to the museum, he added, their families have an opportunity to learn about what else is available at the museum. In addition to access to more than 100 railcars on the grounds that children get to interact with, Tallman said, the museum regularly features fun exhibits, educational programs and special events. Families enjoy the railroad museum in general, Ghear said, but at A Day Out With Thomas, kids can barely control their excitement because they can’t wait to experience all of the additional fun stuff going on. “Be prepared to have a whole day of fun hanging out with your kiddos,” Ghear said, “just watching them have a blast.”

A DAY OUT WITH THOMAS Hours: The museum opens at 8 a.m. Activities will shut down at 5 p.m. and the grounds will close by 6 p.m. Riders should plan on arriving at least one hour before their train departs, as it is sometimes difficult to reschedule a missed train ride. Families may stay af-

terward for as long as they would like to enjoy the activities. Food: A variety of food vendors will be available for lunch, snack or dessert purchases. Families may also bring a picnic lunch but there are no lockers or storage facilities on-site. Both alcohol and cooking

are prohibited. Parking: Free parking is available off-site at two locations where a shuttle bus will transport event goers. One lot is located one halfmile east of the Colorado Railroad Museum, just off 44th Avenue at Table Mountain Parkway. Handi-

VOICES Taking a leave of absence to be more present

bsent (def): not present in a place, at an occasion, or as part of something. Leave of absence (def): time when one has permission to be absent. I have been absent … over the summer, primarily, and with permission, mostly. Although I needed to step away from what was too onerous or too demanding at the time, I’ve also been absent from aspects of my life that are enjoyable, exciting and satisfying … such as writing to you regularly in this column. Fortunately, though, I was able to take the time I needed, and now I’m back. Earlier this year, I reported on a short sabbatical I had taken during which I didn’t open my computer, turn on the TV or the radio, check emails

or texts, or take calls for about 10 days. I emerged with the strength and fortitude to make some tough decisions, as well as to take some leaps of faith. ALCHEMY Maybe that abbreviated event encouraged me to seek permission for my more extended leave of absence the past few months. And now that Labor Day has come and gone – that harbinger of football (finally!), back to school, Andrea Doray and the change in seasons precipitating all that fall in Colorado has to offer – I’m prompted

to reflect on this experience. What did it mean to be “absent,” to be “not present”? I realized that, for me, being absent has actually meant that I was more present in many cases. Being absent from social obligations (some) and business obligations (a few) gave me breathing room to be present for two bittersweet celebration-of-life memorials, a joyous family wedding, numerous events out of town, and the leap-of-faith move that I mentioned above. Along the way, some of these temporary absences have turned into permanent decisions not to continue at all, which have made me wonder: what else can I truly jettison from the precious hours of each day to make more room for being present? Where can I find the time – as well as

the physical and emotional energy – to work out and continue rehabbing from the car accident last year? To practice the piano? To explore the bike paths of my new neighborhood? To spend more time with the people I care about? And, perhaps most importantly, how will I give my own self permission to let go of obligations that previously have been so closely held? The answer, I’m finding, is right here … within my own self. Of course, I’m concerned about the impacts of my absences on others; these are always part of the equation. What I didn’t count on, though, were the impacts on me. SEE DORAY, P15

W LETTERS TO THE EDITOR What’s half a billion? Did we hear that the Jeffco school district is requesting $567 million for bonds? Did we hear that they are also asking for a $33 million mill levy override? Half-a-billion here, half-a-billion there, first thing you know they’ll be asking for more than pocket change. For the economics illiterate, every dollar in local taxes takes money out of the local economy, whether the expenditure is for something worthwhile or not. The million dollar superintendent with the billion dollar budget has neither shown a worthwhile need, nor a past performance record to justify this jolt to our economy.

ture and tools to educate our children. However, since the advent of teachers unions, the educational infrastructure in America has become highly politicized, where the unions have flexed their power, infiltrating district boards with their sympathizers, and as a result, have leveraged their needs and priorities against school budgets, leaving taxpayers having virtually little or no say so in this process. During this time, the collective bargaining process has consumed a largess of educational resources that could have otherwise been directed to the brick and mortar and capital maintenance needs of districts. Jeffco residents are aware of their school district’s legacy with taxpayer dollars and are circumspect of the board’s ability to be effective stewards of the funds they are requesting now.

By letting go of what I did – either temporarily or more permanently now – I had space to fill. And fill it, I did – thoughtfully, and with intention. Essentially, I was getting – and giving myself – permission not to be absent, but to be more present, where and when it mattered. There is a quote – attributed to everyone from Socrates to J.M. Barrie of Peter Pan fame – that goes something like this: “Be kinder than necessary, because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.” My own battles this summer – albeit minor in the context of world events – required my presence. I thank you for your kindness while I was absent. Andrea Doray is a writer who – in an unattributed part of the quote above – reminds us all to live simply, love generously, care deeply and speak kindly … and to be present by giving ourselves permission to be absent.

And using the so-called “eye test,” you would say the same thing: the other two seem to make defenders miss to make big plays, while Booker tends to run into the rear ends of his own blockers to lose yards. But, for some reason, the powers that be around the Broncos seem dead-set on making Booker the man. They seem to have some affinity for his game that never makes itself obvious to the fans. You saw a similar bias for the longest time at the quarterback position: for some reason, the Broncos just never seemed to believe their own eyes with regards to Paxton Lynch. And you know what? We all have the capacity to act out of our own confirmation bias. You think you’re above it? Quick—what’s your go-to

news and information site? And, generally speaking, does that news site tend to lean to one side or the other politically? And how does that lean align with your own beliefs? More than that, how often do you seek out information from the other side of the spectrum? See, we’re now officially in the silly season, and we’re all going to start getting inundated with advertising, and social media feeds, and polling numbers, and all manner of information that we’ll have to sift through as we’re trying to decide how to vote in November. And it becomes very easy to fall back into our comfort zones and only accept information that confirms our own biases. But, this time around, I challenge you to seek out, and truly understand the arguments of the other side. Who knows? You might learn something. At the very least, think how much fun it could be to anticipate an opponent’s ar-

gument, and beat them to it, and then refute it. This time of year, it’s pretty easy to suggest where to find beauty. For my money, there are two “can’t miss” scenic drives. The first is Guanella Pass between Georgetown and Grant. The colors are spectacular, and, if that disappoints, there’s beautiful views of a number of 14-ers. The second drive is down Highway 285 to Trout Creek Pass. The pass itself is not terribly interesting— Wiki describes it as “mild”—but the peak of the pass overlooks the town of Buena Vista, and provides a breathtaking view of the Collegiate Peaks Range and its eight 14-ers.

Exuberant show sets tone for Arvada Center season

open mic.” The café in northern Denver’s Five Points, a neighborhood with deep musical history, boasts one of the metro area’s best-known open mics, but out in the suburbs, newer venues also see strong turnout — and for 38 State Brewing Company in Littleton, that includes newcomers. “I’ve definitely seen a whole lot of out-of-towners saying, ‘I just moved here,’” said Angie Boyle, head bartender at the brewery at 8071 S. Broadway. Amid metro-area population growth, some in 38 State’s openmic crowd say they’re new to the area, checking out the scene and trying to get booked to play shows, Boyle said. A few miles east in Lone Tree, Patrick DiBartolomeo sees performances from all ages at Lincoln Station Coffee/Pizza/Music, located just south of Interstate 25 and C-470 along the light-rail line. “In any given week, you may see as young as 8 or 9 years old all the way up to performers in their 70s,” said DiBartolomeo, owner of the business. “We frequently see highschoolers working on their craft up to seasoned performers doing what they have been doing for decades.” And it’s not just a fleeting hobby, as Boyle sees at 38 State.

he first show in a theater’s season sets the tone for the rest of the year, and by opening its 2018-19 season with “Mamma Mia!” the Arvada Center’s message is clear — this year is going to be bigger than ever. “This show is really just the best time,” said actress Shannan Steele, who plays Donna Sheridan in the production. “Audiences are in for a party and they’re going to relish every bit of the music.” “Mamma Mia!” runs at the Arvada Center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., Sept. 7-30. Performances are at 7:30 COMING Tuesdays ATTRACTIONS p.m. through Saturdays, matinees are at 1 p.m. on Wednesdays and at 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. Directed by Rod A. Lansberry, the show is based on the music of Swedish pop icons ABBA. Donna lives on a Clarke Reader Greek island with her daughter, Sophie (Mariah MacFarlane). Donna is a hotel owner, and between that and Sophie she seems to be perfectly content. But when Sophie goes in search of her father so he can be a part of her wedding, Donna’s world gets turned upside down. “I love Donna because she’s so independent and is really a rock star in her own right,” Shannan said. “As a mother myself I understand trying to maintain that balance of independence and the love she has in her heart. Donna really explores the vast depths that come with being a mother.” Audiences will almost certainly recognize ABBA standards like “Dancing Queen” and “Take A Chance on Me,” and it’s the kind of show where people have to actively stop themselves from dancing. There’s not a lot of dialogue in the show, Shannan said, so not only is music the main communication tool, but it also illuminates and deepens the relationships between the characters. “The ensemble in this show is so strong and that just adds to the overall experience,” she added. “This is the kind of show where the audience is going to feel like a part of the show experience.” For tickets call 720-898-7200 or visit www.arvadacenter.org/mamma-mia.

Steve Smulian, 71, performs Aug. 28 at the open-mic night at 38 State Brewing Company at 8071 S. Broadway in Littleton. A musician for decades, Smulian said he’s made lasting friendships from open-mic nights. PHOTOS BY ELLIS ARNOLD

Open-mic nights are popular in metro area, featuring both beginners and veteran performers BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

teve Smulian, 71, plucked and sang on a small stage in Littleton for an audience that barely included more people than the bartender and the host. But even after playing guitar for 56 years — including about 10 as a professional musician — Smulian still loves playing open-mic nights because, for him, it’s about the people, whether he’s playing for a small group or a large crowd. “Most good musicians are welcoming,” Smulian said. “It’s art, and art is not a contest.” That’s the sentiment that aspiring musicians, comedians or writers — or casual performers looking for an outlet — will find at open-mic nights in the Denver metro area, events that offer a place to hone skills, build networks and, above all, be yourself. ‘Circuit’ of talent With a sticker-covered guitar,

Ben Duncan, a 25-year-old who recently moved to Denver from Indiana, delivers a comedy set on stage Aug. 29 at the Mercury Café at 2199 California St. in Denver. “Denver’s got a pretty great scene,” Duncan said. Michael Thompson sat on stage at the Mercury Café, where performers appear on Wednesday nights to play to a laid-back crowd. But the atmosphere at the eclectic Denver location shouldn’t fool anyone — the musicians can whip out some skilled, and intricate, routines. “The thing I like the most about the Mercury is it’s a welcoming place,” said Thompson, 30, who delivered a Rolling Stones cover along with original music. “It’s a good beginner

SOME OPEN-MIC LOCATIONS

FROM PAGE 16

“The Denver area has a pretty good circuit of people,” Boyle said, who network and play in venues all over the region. People even come down from Boulder to perform, she added. ‘Do your thing’ On any night, an open-mic event is likely happening somewhere in the metro area, with the middle of the week — Tuesday through Thursday — especially rife with options, according to internet listings. Across many venues, the audiences and performers alike offer a supportive environment, staff say. “Everybody just sits and listens to the music,” said Tim Ferry, manager at The Toad Tavern near the LittletonEnglewood border. He emphasized the lack of judgment, adding, “Go up there and do your thing.” After artists perform, they make good audience members, which helps them support each other and the venues themselves, DiBartolomeo said. “We have seen many new relationships and musical collaborations formed as the musicians get to know one another,” DiBartolomeo said. Arriving early to meet people and get the “lay of the land” is a good way to ease in for first-timers, he said. Some venues feature booked music performances, too, and for Ferry, open mic is an opportunity for artists to show their skills and potentially get invited to play a scheduled show. Boyle echoed that. “We’ve pulled a couple good bands straight from open mic” for live-music shows, Boyle said.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Stones Throw Party at Summit Music Hall Mention Stones Throw Records to appreciators of independent hiphop, electronic and soul music, and you’re bound to see their eyes light up. Founded by Chris Manak (known as Peanut Butter Wolf) in 1996, the label has released monumental records like Madlib and MF DOOM’s “Madvillainy” and J Dilla’s “Donuts” and introduced the world to artists like Mayer Hawthorne and NxWorries. Three members of the label’s impressive roster — Dam Funk, J. Rocc and Hawthorne — will be performing at the Stones Throw Party at Summit Music Hall, 1902 Blake St., at 9 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 8. J. Rocc is the founder of the influential World Famous Beat Junkies DJ crew, and has released numerous mixtapes in addition to production for Stones Throw releases. Damon “DamFunk” Riddick is a passionate advocate for funk as a vital genre of music. And Hawthorne will cap the evening off with a DJ set.

Many open-mic nights are hosted in bars, breweries, restaurants and cafes, and many are held biweekly or once a month. Please contact venues or check websites for times and more information. Several other locations hold open-mics as well — this list is not all-encompassing.

ELLIS ARNOLD Comedy and poetry, too Open mics aren’t just for music — many venues welcome comedy and poetry, too. Mercury Café has its own open-poetry night on Fridays. Ben Duncan, a 25-year-old from Indiana, performs at local comedy openmic nights. But, he said, sometimes it’s useful to come to a music-heavy open mic because their audiences likely haven’t heard the jokes before. He encouraged first-time comedians to give open mics a try. “You’re going to know right away whether (comedy) is something you want to do,” said Duncan, who moved to Denver recently to get more serious about pursuing comedy. And “get ready for a lot of late nights and beating yourself up in your car” if it turns out that you do, he laughed. Stop on larger journeys For Smulian, who methodically

Thompson, who has played in a band and currently records music on his own, said the best way for beginners to approach open mics is to lay their emotions out. “Open up yourself,” Thompson said. “And do it again and again and again.”

During his time on CBS’ “The Late Late Show” he was a funny, at times melancholic voice in an industry too often overflowing with gimmicks and nothing to say. In addition to being a host, director and novelist, Ferguson has a long history as a stand-up comedian. And he’ll be embracing that role when he spends four nights at the Comedy Works Downtown, 1226 15th St. in Denver, Sept. 7 through 10. Ferguson’s most recent comedy album, “Here to Help,” earned him a Grammy nomination and he also launched a SiriusXM radio program called “The Craig Ferguson Show.” Get tickets by visiting www.comedyworks.com/comedians/craigferguson. A legend in person at Sloan’s Lake Fantasy as a film genre was at an interesting point in the 1980s. Visual effects were coming along, though most of the time they look remarkably cheesy to contemporary eyes,

and they focused too much on the traditional hero rescues the damsel in distress trope. Still, there’s something to be said for rewatching childhood favorites, especially with one of the stars. The Sloan’s Lake Alamo Drafthouse, 4255 W. Colfax Ave. in Denver, is hosting a screening of Ridley Scott’s cult favorite, “Legend,” featuring a poetry session with co-lead Mia Sara before the movie. Sara will be reading her poetry at 8 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 14, followed by the film at 9:30. “Legend” was one of the first of many movies featuring Tom Cruise as the lead. Cruise plays Jack, a young man who finds himself in a battle against the Lord of Darkness to save daylight and steal Sara’s Lili. Sara will be reading as part of Alamo’s poetry reading series, Ham On Rye. And maybe she’ll even take some questions on “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.” Go to www.drafthouse.com/denver/ for tickets.

ARVADA — Hitting was contagious Tuesday afternoon at Arvada West High School. A-West and Golden softball teams combined for 29 hits to score 22 runs in the non-league game between the Class 5A Jeffco and 4A Jeffco squads. When the dust settled, the Wildcats came away with a 15-7 victory in AWest’s home opener. “We started off maybe a little slow, but once the girls settled in and were a little more selective with the pitches they were attacking they were able to string things together,” A-West coach Brenna Millikan said. “The top part of our line-up kind of sets the tone, but when we are successful its when that bottom half is really coming

through.” Golden (2-5 record) actually held a 5-4 lead through two innings. Senior Cassidy Paulson had an RBI single and Golden’s twin sisters Makayla and Makenzie Middleton highlighted a 4-run top of the second inning for the Demons with an RBI single by Makayla and a 2-run triple by Makenzie off A-West starting junior pitcher Isabelle Schwien. The Demons extended their lead to 7-4 with Katherine Dunson and Kaela Fajardo scoring in the top of the third inning, but it was all A-West from there on out. The Wildcats (6-2) scored 11 unanswered runs, all coming in the bottom of the third and fourth innings. “Our start of the line-up got us going and the bottom half fed off of that,” said A-West senior Christaana Angelopulos, who went 4-for-5 with three RBIs. “Once we get one through nine hitting we are unstoppable. Everyone just needs to contribute. We’ll be good.” SEE SOFTBALL, P25

achary Gonzales, Arapahoe’s 6-foot-1, 320-pound nose guard/defensive end, likes to tease his grandpa about wearing a leather helmet when he played football. Gonzales is the third generation of the family to play football. Zachary’s dad, Darrell, was a 168-pound guard who graduated from Mullen in 1987. OVERTIME Dave Gonzales, Zachary’s grandfather, was a 160-pound guard for Adams City in the late 1950s and graduated from the school in what was then called B the Town of Com- M Jim Benton merce in 1960. A “Being the third generation to A play football is cool no doubt,” said Zachary, who is also a standout rugby player on the Arapahoe club team. “My grandfather is not a big sports guy like my dad. But he fondly remembers being a guard and picking up a fumble that he scored on. Grandpa is always more rewarding when report cards come home and I show him my A’s and B’s. “My dad has the same mantra as grandpa and he has never missed a game. He rearranges his schedule to make sure he is there for me. He prepares me a pregame meal the night before games, a game-day breakfast and gets me a nice steak for lunch, and he is big on me eating healthy.” Darrell and Dave Gonzales both point out that football and the culture surrounding sports is different than it was, especially when the 77-year-old Dave played. “You just went out there rolled up your sleeves, put your hands in the dirt and played,” said Darrell. “Back then was a lot different. Going to work was more important than the game. When I played, whether you knew what the snap count was or not, you just went on movement. “My biggest plus was that I was smart enough to see the ball move and what they now call eye discipline. I would have one eye on the ball and move based on the ball and the players’ movement. Back then being 160 to 180 pounds was a big man. Nowadays that is the average for a wide receiver.” SEE BENTON, P24

No. 4 Pomona football overcomes turnovers to defeat Bear Creek BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

ARVADA — The defending Class 5A state football champions looked impressive, but did have some issues in their home opener Thursday night at the North Area Athletic Complex. Pomona defeated old Jeffco rival Bear Creek 49-6 despite turning the ball over four times. “We’ve got to quit making mistakes,” Pomona coach Jay Madden said bluntly. “We had 378 yards of offense in the first half and you only have 28 points, that’s not good.” The Panthers opened their season last week with a 32-14 victory over Oak Ridge (FL) in Orlando, but had turnover problems there too. Pomona senior quarterback Colten Muller finished 13-for-16 passing for 268 yards and three touchdowns, but he also was intercepted twice. Pomona senior receivers Dominic Bettini and Billy Pospisil both were stripped of the ball on long catches to account for the other two Panther turnovers. “It’s all about effort and control what you can control,” Pospisil said. “I think there are a lot of little things we can fix.” Pospisil had six catches for 144 yards and a touchdown. He also had the longest play of the game with a 95-yard kickoff return for a score that put the Panthers up 42-6 with 5:31 left in the third quarter. The big special teams

Pomona won 49-6 on Aug. 30 to improve to 2-0 on the season. PHOTO BY DENNIS PLEUSS/JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS play came 13 seconds after the Bears’ lone points off a 1-yard touchdown catch by senior George Martinez from quarterback Isaiah Romero. Bear Creek senior Nate Madrid picked off Muller and returned to the 1-yard line to set up the Bears’ lone touchdown. “I was just going to go out there and do the best I could,” Pospisil said of his 95-yard kickoff return. “Thankful-

ly the blocks made a humongous hole and I just ran right through it.” Senior David Ross had three catches for 79 yards. Two of the grabs going for touchdowns in the first half. “Coach Madden talked about it all week,” Ross said of the Panthers going to the air. “We knew if the safeties were going to play up we were going to go over the top on them.” Muller was solid on the ground with

eight carries for 129 yards and two touchdowns. Running back Therious Robison added a dozen carries for 132 yards and put in the Panthers’ final touchdown to close out the third quarter with Pomona leading 49-6. “We are a work in progress, but we do have a lot of skill guys who can take it the distance if we get them the ball in space,” Madden said. Defensively, the Panthers were impressive. Pomona’s defense didn’t allow the Bears’ offense to get much going. Senior Trent Padia intercepted a pass to put an end to Bear Creek’s longest drive of the first half. Seniors MJ Allen Luke Rowheder both had first-half sacks on Romero. Bear Creek has a pair of tough nonleague challenges against Rampart and Windsor — both ranked in the top10 in 4A — before starting conference play in the 4A Jeffco League against Dakota Ridge on Oct. 4. The non-league schedule really heats up for Pomona starting this week. The Panthers have a threeweek stretch of No. 2 Valor Christian, No. 1 Cherry Creek and Highlands Ranch. “This is going to be an interesting stretch,” Madden said of the next three games. “We’ll see what we are made of. We’ve just got to say healthy and get better these next two weeks. Obviously, you would love to win, but the key is to find out what you are made of so coming into league you are ready to go.”

SOFTBALL FROM PAGE 22

The seven, eight and nine A-West batters — Jadyn Sabell, Taylor Kahl and Alexis Folks — combined to go 7-for-10 with seven runs scored. The Wildcats put the icing on their offensive outburst with junior Shelby Robb racing around the bases after a fly ball to right field was mishandled to score the final three runs in the bottom of the fourth inning. A-West sophomore Savannah Clausen relieved Schwien to start the top of the fourth inning and was able to squelch the hot Demon bats. Clausen was able to scatter five hits in pitching four scoreless innings. “Savannah went out there and kind of kept them off-balance, got us more ground ball outs,” Millikan said. “She has done a really good job for us and when she goes out there with a lot of energy the team feels that.” The sophomore said her strong outing was a big confident boost. Clausen was tagged with the loss in her last outing when the Wildcats lost 13-8 to Prairie View on Aug. 24.

“I wasn’t nervous,” Clausen said coming into the game to start the fourth inning with the Wildcats holding a 9-7 lead. “I knew our team would get it together and shut them down.” The Wildcats play just two games in the Eric Tournament of Championships coming up this weekend. However, A-West will get two hard tests against Loveland (6-0) and Broken Arrow (10-2) from Oklahoma. Golden has a bit of a break before playing in the Berthoud Tournament coming up the following weekend. “It’s a rough schedule and it doesn’t let up,” Golden coach Chad Herbers said. “We’ve seen some really good pitchers this entire non-league and today was no different. Today we made some good adjustments on the offensive side.” While Herbers like what he saw from the plate with his Demons, he knows his team needs to figure things out to reach their high expectations. “We’ve just got to tie both sides (offense and defense) together,” Herbers said. “If we have any aspirations of going not only to the postseason —but deep into the postseason — we’ve got to play these teams, mentally adjust and get through it.”
