Delaney

A Red Rocks Community College police officer is being investigated for child pornography.

Golden Police officers arrested

David Delaney, 28, of Golden on Sept. 23 prior to him boarding a plane out of Denver International Airport (DIA) bound for Taiwan.

Taiwan does not have an extradition process established with the U.S., Golden Police’s Capt. Joe Harvey said, and there was concern of him fleeing the country.

Delaney was arrested on a warrant for sexual exploitation of child and was booked into the Jefferson

County Detention Facility. He posted a $60,000 cash/surety bond on Sept. 25.

The Golden Police Department has Delaney’s passport in custody.

He will receive a GPS tracking device and will not be allowed travel out-of-state without permission of the court. By court order, Delaney will not have internet access.

DELANEY FROM PAGE 2

Red Rocks Community College put Delaney on administrative leave on Aug. 6.

He had worked there since the end of July 2017, according the arrest affidavit.

Jefferson County courts will preside over the case. Delaney appeared in the Jefferson County courthouse on Sept. 28 was advised on charges filed by the First Judicial District Attorney’s Office.

He was charged with sexual exploitation of a child – possessing more than 20 different items qualifying as sexually exploitative material.

It is a class 4 felony. Delaney’s pre-

liminary hearing will take place at 2 p.m. Nov. 1.

The case was assigned to the Golden Police Department on July 3, following a June 5 investigation into internet TORRENT files obtained by the Jefferson County Sheriff ’s Office.

A Jefferson County court judge issued a state search warrant to search Delaney’s home in Golden on July 30, and Golden Police detectives executed the warrant the next day. They spoke with Delaney’s roommate who told them that Delaney was visiting his girlfriend in the Philippines.

Golden Police seized various devices including compact disks and SD cards from Delaney’s bedroom.

Thumb drives and a workstation computer from Red Rocks Community College are also being searched.

Homeland Security Investigations

got involved in the investigation on Aug. 1.

Searches of the electronic devices are being conducted by the Homeland Security Investigations’ Denver Forensic Laboratory.

The Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) has also been involved with investigations into this case.

Investigations from the various agencies revealed images and video of prepubescent girls, both in the nude and partially clothed. Some have the girls alone and others have them posed with partially nude adult males.

Delaney returned to the U.S. via Los Angeles International Airport on Aug. 6 and two days later, another federal search warrant was issued to search a cellular phone and laptop computer that Delaney had travelled

with. As of Sept. 24, the date the arrest warrant affidavit was filed, the search of the devices was in preliminary stages.

The investigation is still active and on-going, Harvey said, adding that the Golden Police will continue to work in partnership with the local and federal agencies.

These types of cases generally require assistance from subject matter experts, Harvey said, describing them as “complex, intricate and detailed investigations.”

Anyone who believes they may have additional information about the case or Delaney is asked to call the Golden Police Department tip line at 303-384-8034 or email crimetips@cityofgolden.net.

“We believe there will be more to this investigation,” Harvey said.

Saturday Is Your Opportunity to Learn How to Make Your Home More ‘Green’

The first Saturday of each October (Oct. 6th this year) is an annual event celebrating solar and sustainable design in housing. Called the Metro Denver Green Homes Tour, the event is sponsored by New Energy Colorado and the Colorado Renewable Energy Society (CRES). Think of it as a “green” version of the Parade of Homes.

The difference, of course, is that not all of the homes on this tour are new-builds. This year’s tour does include four new-builds, including the Geos Community of net zero homes in Arvada and a “tiny house” on the Colorado School of Mines campus. These homes feature geothermal heating, solar electricity, super-insulation, and passive solar design.

Golden Real Estate’s office is included in this year’s tour. Be sure to stop by and learn about our conversion to net zero energy. With 20 kilowatts of solar photovoltaic panels, we not only heat, cool and power our office from the sun, we also charge our five electric cars and

provide free EV charging to the public without ever paying Xcel Energy over $12 per month for electricity. Xcel removed our gas meter last year.

If you are interested in reducing your own carbon footprint, you don’t want to miss this Saturday’s tour. For $10 per person, you can pick up the tour book with a map of participating homes at Golden Real Estate, 17695 S. Golden Road or at Jefferson Unitarian Church (JUC), 14350 W. 32nd Avenue this Friday or on Saturday morning starting at 9 a.m. The homes on the tour are open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. after which there is a reception with free wine, beer and food at JUC until 6pm. The reception features an Eco-Expo, where you can visit booths representing various sustainability vendors and organizations. Also, from 3 to 6 pm, part of JUC’s parking lot will be set aside for an “Electric Vehicle Roundup” featuring numerous brands and models of electric and plug-in cars, including this year’s runaway best

(If you are thinking of buying an EV, there’s a 2016 Ford Focus Electric in Golden Real Estate’s parking lot. It’s being sold by the owner, who relocated to Europe. Purchased 2 years ago for $31,000, it’s being offered for $13,500, including a set of 4 studded snow tires mounted on sport rims plus a 240V charging station for your garage. Ask me for a test drive.)

Last Saturday, three friends and I went on the Boulder Green Home Tour. Although there were only seven homes of that tour (compared to over a dozen on ours) we learned a lot from touring them. In one case, a typical tri -level home from the 1970’s was beautifully transformed into a near net-zero home, combining the use of solar power, heat pumps, and even a green roof, as well as other technologies. A couple newly built homes were on the tour incorporating geothermal (ground source heat pump) heating and cooling, solar thermal space heating, energy recovery ventilation and other technologies to reduce their energy usage to zero or beyond.

Unlike your typical home tour, the primary purpose of the Metro Denver Green Homes

Tour is educational. The sustainable features of each home are explained to you. If you’re thinking of “going green” or just want more information you won’t want to miss this event!

There’s nothing like a

Golden brew Local breweries thrive thanks to community, great beer

New Terrain Brewing Company’s beer voyager Jon Oswald pours a beer during the Sept.

25 Golden Bicycle Cruise.

“Community events like these validate the values and goals on which New Terrain was founded,” he said. The brewery’s slogan is “We wonder so we wander.”

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

One thing about Golden is that the water here makes for great beer.

Adolph Coors realized this back in 1873 when he opened the Coors Brewery in Golden. It’s now in its fifth generation of family leadership and one of the world’s largest distributors of beer.

But Coors products aren’t the only locally-brewed beers available in Golden.

“We have everything from the traditional producers to the new and experimental,” said Jon Oswald, who does sales and is a beer voyager for New Terrain Brewing Company.

“Golden’s beer is world-class.”

Serving unique, quality beer certainly has something to do with it, but there is another reason why Golden breweries thrive. Few other cities in the metro area can offer an experience quite the same — one that entails community, and historic, small-town amenities combined with outdoor recreational opportunities.

Brewery boom For about 20 years, Golden City Brewery was the only craft brewery in Golden. It opened in 1993. AC Golden Brewing Company, a subsidiary of MillerCoors operated out of the Coors Brewery in Golden, was founded in 2007, but does not offer a taproom.

Today, there are nine breweries in Golden open for business, with three more yet to come — Over Yonder Brewing is expected to open in January 2019, and Kanook Beer Company and Explore Brewing Co. are in conceptual phase, according to Colorado Brewery List, www.coloradobrewerylist.com.

The brewery boom in Golden got its start about five years ago — Mountain Toad, Cannonball Creek and Barrels & Bottles all opened in 2013. Then another wave of breweries opened in 2016 — Holidaily in February and New Terrain in October. CODA Brew-

Karen Hertz, front, the founder and owner of Holidaily Brewing Company, stands with her brew crew, from top step down, William Martinez, Connor Reeves and Jacob Johnson. Holidaily is the only dedicated gluten-free brewery in Colorado. It is one of eight in the U.S., but is the nation’s only woman-owned gluten-free brewery. ing Co. opened on Sept. 8 of this year.

“Golden is unique to have so many breweries in such a small population,” said Karen Hertz, owner and founder of Holidaily Brewing Company. And, she added, “it’s all quality beer.”

Award-winning beer, with a niche Although the brewers and breweries in Golden are a close-knit group with a friendly relationship, said Luke Smith, owner and head brewer at CODA, “with so many breweries, you have to make quality beer.”

Golden breweries have that requirement fulfilled, and it’s not just locals who recognize that Golden’s beer is good. This year, two Golden breweries brought home gold medals from the Great American Beer Festival — Cannonball Creek for its German-style pilsner, Netflix and Pils; and Golden City Brewery for its German-style alt bier, Legendary Red. “People get excited about having high-quality, locally-made options,” said James Coulter, the head brewer for Colorado Plus Cidery & Pub in Golden and Colorado Plus Brew Pub and Taphouse in Wheat Ridge. “The

cider provides a different experience than the craft beer, but it’s still related.”

Being a craft beer brewer is career phase two for Smith of CODA, he said.

Smith has a background in science and designed cancer therapeutics at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus Department of Pharmacology.

“I love geeking out about beer in our community,” Smith said.

CODA opened to provide the Pleasant View area with a “community-centric brewery for friends and family,” Smith said, but staying true to the brewery’s motto, “ale’s what cures you,” many of the beers have tinctures added to them.

They’re mostly for flavor, “but there is benefit beyond flavor,” Smith said.

“There are so many different roots and herbs that have physical benefits to your body.”

For example, a beer with chocolate or coffee can have circulatory benefits, and ginger can help settle your stomach, Smith said. In addition, an

enzyme is added to all 11 beers on tap at CODA, which makes them glutenreduced.

But for dedicated gluten-free beer, look no further than Holidaily.

For Hertz, a two-time cancer survivor whose treatment plan included a doctor’s recommendation to eliminate gluten, it runs deeper than simply providing people with a good beer.

“People who are gluten-free can get emotional about it,” Hertz said. “It can make you feel high-maintenance or left out.”

In beer, the issue is with the grain, Hertz said. So, at Holidaily, millet and buckwheat are used rather than barley and wheat. There’s no sacrifice on the taste, Hertz added, so anybody can enjoy Holidaily beers with the freedom of knowing it’s both safe and quality.

“Once you find a great gluten-free product that you love,” Hertz said, “you want to tell your whole community about it.”

Zombies arise to cruise Golden Season’s final Golden Bike Cruise took place Sept. 25

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The moon was nearly full on that Tuesday evening when the zombies made their way to gather in the parking lot next to the Golden Library.

Once there, they were greeted by the smiling faces of some Colorado School of Mines cheerleaders, the sounds of the music from Weatherbee and the Gnarbillys and the smells of meat being cooked by Bob’s Atomic Burgers.

Some of the zombies stood in line for a brew by New Terrain Brewing Company, while others made their way to Chris Cuttitta, a Goldenite who has become affectionately known as the ice cream sandwich man at the Golden Bicycle Cruise.

“We’re here every month,” said Golden resident Laura Warren who has been doing the cruises with her husband Jeff for the past six years.

“It’s become a tradition.”

The 2018 season’s final Golden Bicycle Cruise took place on Sept. 25. It was a bit chilly and the crowd was not as large as some of the cruises that took place earlier in the summer months, but it

The Urfer family, from left, Stacey, Dru and Tony, of Littleton put on their best zombie faces.

For Golden residents Laura and Jeff Warren, the Golden Bicycle Cruise has become a monthly tradition. They have been participating in the event for the past six years.

The zombie prom group of Golden gathers for a photo during the 2018 season’s last Golden Bicycle Cruise on Sept. 25. Pictured from left are Aaron Pugmire, Hannah Koschnitzke, Patrick Gillespie, David Rey, Emma Bradford, Shannon Eller and Karen Pugmire.

“I saw this on my Facebook feed, and it looked like fun,” said Mike Sales.

So, the Broomfield resident recruited his friend Ted Moss of Golden to join him. It was the first time for both of them to do the cruise.

“It’s a good community outreach event,” said Matt Riggi, the service manager at the Golden Bike Shop who was there to assist with basic bike maintenance, along with oversee the raffle because the bike shop built the bikes that were raffled off to attending zombies.

There’s no racing involved or competition, Riggi said.

“Everyone comes out, just for a good time. It’s just people enjoying bicycles and each other’s company.”

A group of seven friends — all from Golden — have been doing the Golden Bicycle Cruises each month for the past five years. For the past four years, they host their zombie prom at the last cruise of year.

“We think everyone should dress up. It’s fun to be someone — or something — that you’re not,” said Aaron Pugmire, speaking on behalf of the group. “If you’re gonna do it, you gotta do it right.”

Six students from D’Evelyn Junior/Senior High were named as National Merit semifinalists.

SHANNA FORTIER

Jeffco high schoolers receive national honors 24 National Merit semifinalists in Jeffco, six from D’Evelyn

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Six students at D’Evelyn Junior/ Senior High were named as semifinalists in the National Merit Scholarship Program in late September, which represents 4 percent of their graduating class.

“The semifinalist recognition received by these six outstanding students reflects their intellect, work ethic, and commitment to excellence,” said D’Evelyn principal Josh Griffin.

The six D’Evelyn seniors earning National Merit Scholarship semifinalist status are Samantha Bakes, Cadence Fisher, Emma Dukesherer, Alan Li, Rory Devin, and Ian Widmann.

These students were among 24 National Merit Scholarship semifinalists attending Jeffco Public Schools, and the 221 students recognized across the state of Colorado for the 2018-2019 school year.

Each year, the National Merit Scholarship Program recognizes approximately 16,000 students from a pool of 1.6 million juniors in about 22,000 high schools who enter the scholarship program by taking the Preliminary SAT/ National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, which served as an initial screen of program entrants. The nationwide pool of semifinalists, represents less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors and includes the highest scoring entrants in each state.

Currently celebrating its 25th year and located in unincorporated Jefferson County, D’Evelyn Junior/ Senior High School is a liberal arts, option school for students in grades 7 through 12. The liberal arts education is something Griffin believes added to his students’ success.

“For me as a principal, I’m proud of

these kids,” he said. “It also means that the academic impact here is working. We have a liberal arts philosophy designed to be vertical and horizontally aligned — meaning each years course prepares for next year and what you’re studying in one class should be connected with that you’re studying in another.

I believe test results reflect that.”

The school — which is home to the most 2019 semifinalists of all Jeffco Public Schools — also celebrated seven semifinalists and one scholarship winner last year.

“I think it’s a testament to our program,” said Devin, one of the six semifinalists. “I don’t think many people do extensive prep for the PSAT, but I think the program helps us prepare for it.”

Devin said he is excited to be semifinalist “it seems like it’s one of the increasingly rare high level accolades and scholarship programs based solely on academic performance rather than athletics or need.”

For Li, who lives in Golden, the recognition gives him pride.

“I think it’s a great honor to have,” he said, adding that he is continuing a legacy as his older brother was named a semifinalist last year.

For students like Dukesherer, being a semifinalist is important because it gives her something other than a transcript to show for the hard work she put into her academics.

The same is true for Madison Pixler, 17, a senior at Arvada West High School. Pixler, the only semifinalist from her school, worked hard to improve her PSAT score by 220 points by doing practice tests.

Golden High student Zak Chorny, 18, also worked to improve his test score using a question-a-day app.

“It’s pretty powerful being the only one from my school,” said Chrony. “My senior class is pretty small, but it’s pretty smart too…. For me to be the only one for Golden High, it adds emphasis to the honor of being a National Merit semifinalist.”

SCHOLARS FROM PAGE 6

The semifinalists are invited to submit an application to earn finalist status. Finalists are eligible to receive a variety of academic awards/scholarships.

To become a finalist, the semifinalist and his or her high school must submit a detailed scholarship application, in which they provide information about the Semifinalist’s academic record, participation in school and community activities, demonstrated leadership abilities, employment, and honors and awards received. A Semifinalist must have an outstanding academic record throughout high school, be endorsed and recommended by a high school official, write an essay, and earn SAT scores that confirm the student’s earlier performance on the qualifying test.

Pixler is already almost complete with her finalist application. All National Merit Scholarship winners will

be selected from this group of finalists.

Three types of National Merit Scholarships will be offered in the spring of 2019. Every Finalist will compete for one of 2,500 National Merit $2,500 scholarships that will be awarded on a state-representational basis. About 1,000 corporate-sponsored Merit Scholarship awards will be provided by approximately 230 corporations and business organizations for Finalists who meet their specified criteria, such as children of the grantor’s employees or residents of communities where sponsor plants or offices are located. In addition, about 180 colleges and universities are expected to finance some 4,000 college-sponsored Merit Scholarship awards for Finalists who will attend the sponsor institution.

National Merit Scholarship winners of 2019 will be announced beginning in April and concluding in July. These scholarship recipients will join some 338,000 other distinguished young people who have earned the Merit Scholar title.

He travels from his home in Morrison to 5280 Gymnastics in Wheat Ridge for his morning workout. He practices from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. before he loads the bus to be taken to school at Two Roads Charter School in Arvada.

He goes to school from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. when he get back on the bus to return to the gym for another three hours of practice.

On a normal day he is back home by 6 p.m., does homework, eats dinner with his family and is in bed by 10 p.m.

Burkhart is one of 30 gymnasts from 5280 Gymnastics who are on this schedule.

The partnership with Two Roads Charter ensures that these highlevel gymnasts are getting their core academics as well as ample times at practice.

“I feel like this is the best situation I could possibly be in,” said Burkhart, who recently won gold on high bar

cient with the amount of time I have.”

Burkhart, who dreams of attending college on a gymnastics scholarship and competing in the 2024 Olympic games, was one of the first students to take part in the program at Two Roads when it started three years ago.

Now, in it’s fourth year, Principal Wendy Noel says the program has been successful. One of its students graduating last year with a full-ride scholarship.

“This program affords them the ability to get the academics they need and they still get to compete on a high level,” Noel said. “It’s the best of both worlds.”

In the early 2000s Noel was a school teacher at a gymnastics program called Gymnastika, where she taught gymnasts at the gym they worked out at. After the academic program at that gym was disbanded, Noel began at Two Roads Charter. But the idea for an academic program that was tailored to

the need of high-level gymnasts was still in the back of her mind.

That’s when she reconnected with Beth Trammel and 5280 gymnastics to create the program at Two Roads. The program currently serves 21 elementary school students and nine middle and high school students.

“It’s good for me because my parents used to drive two hours to get to my gym and then two hours back,” said Cambry Haynes, fourth grader. “I just really want to work hard and try to go to the Olympics in 2024” Haynes, who lives in Evergreen, said she wants to go as far as she can with gymnastics and pursue a career in science.

The program at Two Roads and the coaches at 5280, she said, is helping her achieve those goals.

Noel said that as the program grows she’d like to open it up to gymnasts at other gyms as well as other high level athletes.

Faith Christian students serve community to wrap up homecoming week

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

After a week of spirit days at homecoming activities, over 300 Faith Christian High School students descended upon the Denver metro area to serve the community Sept. 28.

“It’s a good way to end the week not looking inward, but looking outward,” said Michael Cook, principal at Faith Christian High. “It’s a great way to serve our community. Our homecoming theme this year is love God, love others, so we’re really putting that into action.”

Even when that’s not the homecoming theme, it’s tradition for Faith Christian students to spend the Friday morning of homecoming week doing things for others in the community.

“It’s fun for our kids to get out and tangibly be the hands and feet of Jesus,” Cook said. “And it allows for our teachers to connect with students outside the classroom.”

The day of service is followed by a school-wide pizza party, tailgate and powder puff game.

Students volunteered on 27 different service projects including reading to bilingual students at Foster Elementary in Arvada, yard work at Hope House Colorado and partnering with the Denver Dream Center for community outreach.

For senior Katlin Miller, of Golden, the day of service is one she looks forward to each year. The project she has chosen the past three years has been to perform music for residents at Arbor View Senior Community in Arvada.

“What greater gift can we give than talent,” said Miller, who is involved with musical theater at the school. “We get to do something we like and we get to socialize with such kind people.”

$ Joel Parks works with fellow students on yardwork for an Arvada homeowner.

“We’re leading by example by doing this,” Parks said. SHANNA FORTIER found a project she relates to. Walker and her Spanish 3 class visited Foster Elementary, a duel-language school, to read to students in Spanish.

“I love being around kids and I think it’s a good opportunity to share with them what we’re about at Faith Christian,” Walker said. “We can read with them and just make a relationship with them. That’s the first step of expanding the family of Christ.”

The day doesn’t just bring service to the community. Sophomore Greer Porter, said helping the community also fills her.

“It’s really just encouraging and helps bring light to us,” she said, while taking a break from raking leaves at and Arvada home.

Cook said that while the whole school is involved in service this day, students are looking for ways to serve year round. Faith Christian High students are required to fulfill 24 hours of service each year. But some go above and beyond that requirement.

“Our kids are itching to be involved,” Cook said. “So, any way that we can serve Arvada or the greater area, we want to know about.”

Gubernatorial candidates talk education Polis, Stapleton kick off Colorado League of Charter Schools leadership summit

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

School funding, achievement gaps, tax breaks and educating a diverse group of students were all topics Colorado gubernatorial candidates Jared Polis and Walker Stapleton weighed in on Sept. 24 when the Colorado League of Charter Schools hosted a discussion with the candidates to kick off its annual Leadership Summit at the Arvada Center.

“Nothing is more local than education when it comes to your kids’ school,” Polis said during his 15-minute address. “Parents are passionate advocates for what’s going on in their child’s school.”

Admission $5-8 Includes kids amusements.

Polis, a Democrat, said that for him, the bottom line is “how are we serving kids?”

One topic Polis has been focused on when it comes to education is expanding early childhood education.

“As we know, in our state we only fund half-day kindergarten,” Polis said. “We want to — and I expect to in my first term — get to full-day kindergarten ... It’s so important for kids to get a strong start in our state.

If you’re low income, a lot of Title I schools have it. If you’re wealthy, you can afford it. But like so many things, it’s really the middle class that’s squeezed out.”

Polis’ desire to fund early education for all students is something his op-

ponent criticized.

Stapleton, a Republican, talked about his plan for an education savings account, saying, “it includes things like funding for early childhood education so we can link dollars to performance rather than providing something for free to everyone like my opponent is for.”

The education savings account is part of Stapleton’s three-point education plan he rolled out a couple weeks ago.

“We are encouraging tax-free incentives for education savings accounts, which I think is a way to empower parents for educational options for their families, whether it be tutoring, skills-based training, extracurricular activities. You allow the parent to determine what is best, and I am for parents keeping as much money as possible to decide the educational outcomes for their family.”

The plan also includes a tax-free holiday for school supply shopping and a plan for making it easier for charter schools to get themselves sanctioned across the state.

Polis criticized this plan, calling it counterproductive.

“In our state, what does it do and where does it come from?” Polis said.

“Of course, it comes out of public schools. You’re actually taking money out of public school finance to create a tax break for wealthy parents ... His two marquee proposals would drain money from public schools. We’re interested in more money, not less funding.”

After being given the platform to speak about whatever they chose, both candidates were asked a group of identical questions. Here are their answers to a few of them.

CANDIDATES FROM PAGE 10

What are you going to fix about K-12 education in the state and what is working well that you’re going to lean into?

Polis: One of my mentors on the state board of education was Gully Stanford. He had a saying, “there’s nothing wrong with public education that what’s right with public education can’t fix.” I always thought that was a very good saying because what we see across our state and across the county are examples of excellence — great charter schools, great neighborhood schools, great schools of choice run by districts. Yet, we also see persistently failing schools. Schools that continue year-after-year to enlarge the achievement gap. Schools that are unable to demonstrate that students can achieve in their area. So, a lot of the magic in public education is expanding and replicating models that work. The bottom line is the kids’ achievement. How do we make sure we have the moral fortitude to change what doesn’t work? We want to makes sure both our charter schools and our districts have the flexibility to do what works, but not the flexibility to do nothing in the face of persistent failure. That’s how we need to effectively design our accountability policies.

Stapleton: I would make sure what we passed two years ago results in full funding each and every year for Colorado Charter School Institute (CSI) and the great work they do. I also will be an advocate for another board or entity being able to authorize charter schools. I think it’s become way too difficult. And I think in some school districts where you have failing public schools, there is a bias amongst people on the school board who are predisposed to not having more competition in the public education system. And the people that end up being the losers are the people who can’t afford it and don’t have the resources. Those are the two main things I would advocate for. And to the extent that we can take the model of what CSI has done right, which is that teachers’ growth has outpaced student growth, but administration growth is far behind both. That is a great model in general ... I will do whatever I can through an executive order to make it possible for everyone in this room and myself as the treasurer to be able to get line item details on how money is being spent in different school districts.

In the past 20 years schoolage population in Colorado has jumped from 687,000 to 910,000.

The ethnicity is changing drastically from 28 percent non-white to 47 percent non-white. Many of our children are growing up in non-traditional homes. How do you think the public education system needs to adapt to accommodate those demographic changes?

Polis: Many of the areas I represent have seen that change, whether it’s in Eagle or Summit County. If you don’t live in those areas, you think of them as wealthy areas you visit maybe to ski. Those are both at

this point majority minority school districts. I’m excited about the diversity of our state. I think that’s the difference between people like Walker Stapleton and Donald Trump and myself. I celebrate diversity. I think this is a great thing. I think we’re stronger because of our diversity.

Economically, culturally, we’re more vibrant as a state because we have people from all sorts of different backgrounds…. This is an important part of who we are as a state.

It’s an important part of our future.

It’s important we get it right. If we really care about making sure we’re a vibrant, diverse, successful state, we need to make sure we provide a relevant and inclusive approach to education for all kids. Because it doesn’t matter at the end of the day what the kid’s ethnicity is, or faith or lack thereof, or sexual orientation or gender identity, it’s about making sure that everybody as a role in working to the best of their own talent and their own abilities to help make Colorado even more amazing.

Stapleton: I think that demographic shift speaks to me of the need being greater than ever for effective competition in our public school system. I was touring a school in Denver about two years ago and I was inspired because the majority of these students were from diverse ethnic backgrounds. I was inspired by how the school did everything … the success that is bred with a successful charter school you can’t argue with.

And that model of success needs to be taken all across Colorado. I think of the people who are in challenging circumstances, that are crying out for more skills-based dollars for their kids. If you’re graduating in certain areas of Colorado and you’re at a public school that’s graduating at less than 50 percent, you see no opportunity to continue your education because all that means to you is you’re family will be rattled with mounds of debt that you have no ability to repay. That is a promise that we don’t deserve to be making to young people in Colorado. We deserve to be telling them you can do anything you want to do and the state’s going to work with you on skills-based training and collaborate with you so you can reach your goals in life to be a successful individual.

And just because you’re in a school system that is failing doesn’t mean that you’re failing as a person and we’re not going to give up on you.

Amendment 73; it’s on the ballot. Do you support it? If not, what’s a better way to fund public education?

Polis: There’s a big crowded ballot this year. There’s few that I’ve taken positions on. One that I would encourage everybody to oppose is Amendment 74, which is the bonding for our roads without a revenue source. That would drain money from education — that’s the Fix Our Damn Roads initiative. It puts roads ahead of schools. On 73, I haven’t taken a position ... It’s not exactly what I would do or how I would form it. But if the people choose to move forward with that, I would make sure that those resource reach the classroom and the charter schools are treated fairly. If the people don’t like the proposal, I am ready to roll up my arms and work with Republicans

and Democrats and the business and school communities to right decades of underinvestment in our schools.

It would be my priority for general fund money ... I have every expectation that if I’m governor we would propose a significant increase to the general fund for our public schools.

Stapleton: I am admittedly opposed to it. The analogy I draw with how we have dealt with education finance in Colorado for K-12 is that if something is broken, then you can fix it by dumping more money into it. It seems to me like the education system in Colorado

is like holding a plastic bucket with three holes at the bottom and you are asked to participate in a relay race.

And everybody starts out with a full bucket, but your bucket is leaking and every time you get to the other end of the room your bucket is empty. If you don’t fix the holes in the bottom, it doesn’t matter how much water you fill it up with. That’s the problem with Amendment 73. I think it exacerbates structural problems we have in education finance. The only way that changes is proactive leadership from the governors’ office.

Unaffiliated voters on rise, but impact unclear Eyes are on Colorado voters who shun party registration

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Colorado’s status as a “purple” state often gets tossed about, and in the battle to tilt the state to Republicans’ and Democrats’ liking, unaffiliated voters are caught in a tug-of-war.

Just how mixed the electorate really is sparks debate in a state that voted for Democrats in the last three presidential elections but where support for President Donald Trump has been high among Republicans. Statewide, active registered Democrats have inched past Republicans, compared to this time two years ago. Democrats now lead with about 994,000 voters to Republicans’ 973,000, whereas the GOP held onto a 3,000-voter lead over Democrats in 2016.

But in the 2018 midterm elections, unaffiliated voters — those who don’t officially identify with a political party — are in high demand, viewed as having the potential to blur the red and blue lines. Unaffiliateds account for roughly 1.21 million of Colorado’s active voters, or 37 percent of the total.

“When you talk to people, nobody’s quite sure what the turnout is going to be this year — that’s part of why there’s so much focus on the unaffiliated voters,” said Matt Crane, Arapa-

In a time of increasingly polarized national politics — and even a strongly divided state climate — unaffiliated voters have grown as a group over the last decade, overtaking both major parties as the state’s largest voting bloc.

But don’t count them all as true independents, analysts say.

“I don’t think the impact of the unaffiliated voters will be huge,” said Seth Masket, a political science professor at the University of Denver. He added: “They tend to act a lot like partisans.”

How much of a wild card the group will actually be is far from certain, but with the loudest voice in the room, unaffiliated voters are under the microscope this season.

Brewing for years The passing of Proposition 108 in 2016, which allowed voters to participate in a major party’s primary elections without officially aligning with that party, put the spotlight on undeclared voters. But they’ve been quietly gaining for years, Crane said.

“We’ve seen an uptick in unaffiliated registration since 2006 or 2007,” Crane said of the pattern in Arapahoe County. “It goes back that far, where you see people leaving both parties and going unaffiliated.”

Statewide, comparing year-by-year each August, unaffiliated active registered voters surpassed Republicans and Democrats, respectively, by 2013, according to the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office.

Frustration with major parties likely plays a role, and Colorado’s state Legislature has been among the most polarized in the country — in terms of how far the parties are from each other in ideology — according to research by Boris Shor of the University of Houston and Nolan McCarty of Princeton University.

“When the choices seem so far apart between the parties, it tends to push people to register as unaffiliated,” said Robert Preuhs, political science professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver.

It’s common for millennials to

register as unaffiliated, said Crane, a Republican running for re-election in November.

And, as with several facets of Colorado life, high population growth may play a role.

“New migrants from any other state tend to be more likely to register as unaffiliated until they get a sense of how the party operates in their state,” Preuhs said. More hard-line conservative or liberal voters may forgo the caution, he added, but newcomers to the state likely add to the unaffiliated count on the margins.

Even Western individualism may have shaped Colorado’s makeup, Preuhs said, referencing the idea that the Mountain West identity may not fit easily into Republican or Democratic policy positions.

“Relative to other states, Colorado has had a high proportion of unaffiliated voters dating back (a few) decades,” Preuhs said.

Eyes on the prize Both major parties, in and out of Colorado, are spending money to target unaffiliated voters, Crane said.

“There’s a real science behind trying to figure out how to woo the unaffiliated voters,” Crane said. Television ads, literature dropped at doors and social-media efforts are among the methods used to chase those voters in areas of the state where they’re prominent, and key messages from campaigns can be part of that targeting, he added.

Both parties have their work cut out for them because they’ve moved to further to the left and right in recent years, said Dick Wadhams, political strategist and former chair of the Colorado Republican Party. For example, Sen. Bernie Sanders did well in Colorado during his presidential run, he said.

“But it becomes more difficult to appeal to the more unaffiliated voters” the more that happens, Wadhams said.

To be a Democratic nominee today, a candidate has to lean far left, and Republicans “have to pass the Trump test,” said Eric Sondermann, a Colorado political analyst, while discussing the governor’s race.

“You don’t see (Walker) Stapleton or others deviating much from Trump orthodoxy,” Sondermann said, referencing the Republican candidate for governor.

Judging by the June primary election, Democrats will hope more unaffiliated voters turn out to vote, while Republicans would likely be content with a normal election scenario, Preuhs said.

“Republicans tend to turn out more than Democrats and unaffiliated voters in midterms,” Preuhs said.

In the June primary, unaffiliated voters chose the Democratic ballot over the Republican one by roughly 70,000, according to the Secretary of State’s Office.

Parties that aren’t in power “tend to have more momentum,” Sondermann said previously. “It doesn’t determine what’ll happen in November, but I’d rather be holding the Democratic cards than the Republican cards.”

On the fence?

It’s popular to point out that unaffiliated voters are Colorado’s largest voting bloc — making up more than one-third of the electorate — but practically, Sondermann said, that’s inaccurate.

“There are many unaffiliated voters that are tacit Republicans or Democrats,” Sondermann said. True unaffiliateds who can go either way would likely make up somewhere around 10 percent to 20 percent of unaffiliated voters, Sondermann guesses — which works out to just under 4 percent to 8 percent of all voters in Colorado.

But they’re still the “gold mine of politics,” he added.

“They’re the group that elected (President Barack) Obama and then switched and elected Trump — elected (Sen. Mark) Udall and then Cory Gardner,” Sondermann said.

Moving the needle For the midterms, “the big question” is how many in the group will actually vote, Preuhs said.

“Even when they have stable preferences, unaffiliated voters are still less likely to vote” than affiliated ones, Preuhs said.

Their potential to pull politicians to the middle may not be monumental, according to Masket.

“In other states, at any rate, when we see primaries open up to unaffiliated voters, we don’t really see much of an effect on the elected officials themselves,” Masket said. “They don’t seem to become any more moderate, in large part because unaffiliated or independent voters simply don’t vote in very high numbers.”

Whether more unaffiliated voters participating will cause a shift in Colorado politics will take years to become clear, Preuhs said. And even this midterm election may not shed much light — identifying patterns is difficult given the uniqueness of the Trump administration and its influence, he added.

“For the real answers, we’re going to have to see,” Preuhs said. “We need more data to see what shift is going to occur, if any.”

County and state candidates push their platforms Jeff-West Community Forum brings together candidates in six contested races

BY KEVIN M. SMITH SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA

Candidates for local and state offices spoke at the Jeff-West Community Forum Sept. 28, briefly summarizing their backgrounds and priorities.

The event, held at The Grill at Walnut Creek Golf Preserve, included unopposed candidates, such as Vince Buzek for RTD District J board of directors, and Jefferson County Sheriff Jeff Shrader, as well as contested races like Jefferson County coroner, assessor and State House District 29.

Jeff-West is a community organization that focuses on the portion of Westminster inside Jefferson County.

House District 29 Three candidates populate the ballot for House District 29, which covers Arvada, extending into Standley Lake in Westminster.

Tracy Kraft-Tharp, the Democratic incumbent who would be term limited if elected again, is being challenged by Republican Grady Nouis and Libertarian Hans Romer.

Kraft-Tharp, touting her bipartisan approach, said she would continue working on economic development, workforce development and access to mental health care.

“I work with anyone that will work with me,” said Kraft-Tharp, who has served three terms. “The majority of my bills are bipartisan.”

Nouis said said his goals would be to protect the free market, taxpayer money and free speech. He pointed to his activism as strong points for his candidacy.

He described recently protesting the city of Westminster’s proposal to use a single

company for all residential trash service.

“I spoke at the podium a few times, the city council listened, and we were able to keep the trash hauler that we wanted at the end of the day,” Nouis said. “That was a victory for free markets and I was glad to be a part of it.”

He also advocated for a fiscally conservative approach, vowing not to vote for any additional taxes.

Romer pitched the idea of property tax break for those without school-age children. “Why not allow them a tax break . . .?” he said.

Jefferson County treasurer Republican Frank Teunissen and Democrat Jerry DiTullio are vying for this office. County Treasurer Tim Kauffman is not running because he is term-limited.

Teunissen said he wants to safeguard taxpayer money, keep government limited and promote transparency.

“I know that the No. 1 responsibility of the treasurer is to protect the taxpayers’ money,” said Teunissen, who has 30 years of banking, finance and investment experience.

DiTullio was unable to attend the event because he is a teacher at Wheat Ridge High School. But in response to questions from Colorado Community Media, he said his three goals are to improve communication with other departments, correct software errors that resulted in property tax bills increasing by as much as 400 percent for some, and build an online reporting system for residents to see year-to-date budget versus expenditures.

“I can hit the ground running for the taxpayers,” said Ditullio, who has held elected municipal offices with the city of Wheat Ridge the past 23 years, including the past three as the city’s treasurer.

Jefferson County coroner Democrat Annette Cannon and Republican Thomas Weldon are seeking the coroner’s seat — both boast decades of experience for the position. County Coroner John Graham is term-limited.

Cannon was a nurse for 38 years that

included working in the morgue at the VA hospital. She has a master’s in business and was in charge of the medical records department for the city and county of Denver for two years. She said she wants to focus on data.

“I think we could do a lot better with our data as far as how they report drug overdoses, things like that,” Cannon said, noting that information can help organizations working on prevention. “We have a big opioid problem; we have a big suicide problem.”

Weldon has been an investigator in the coroner’s office since 2012, is a former paramedic and served as executive director for a nonprofit ambulance service in Florida. He is also a former small business owner. He also wants to focus on data as well as becoming nationally accredited.

“Our decisions are profound … we can impact estates that are settled, we impact insurance payouts, we impact the criminal aspect of cases we investigate,” Weldon said. “We don’t get a chance to get it right the second time.”

Jefferson County Commission — District 3 Republican Tina Francone currently holds the seat after being appointed to fill a vacancy in January. She is being challenged by Democrat Lesley Dahlkemper, a former Jefferson County school board member. District 3 represents south Jefferson County.

Dahlkemper said the No. 1 concern she hears from residents is how to advance the quality of life. Common issues related to that include open space management, having sustainable and renewable energy, attracting well-paid jobs, transportation and housing, she said.

Dahlkemper has worked for 30 years as a nonprofit executive and been a small business owner, but first moved to Colorado to be a reporter for Colorado Public Radio.

“My success really hinged on listening and hearing different perspectives and looking at issues from all different sides and finding common ground,” Dahlkem-

per said.

Francone, who also served on the RTD Board of Directors for three years, said she wants to continue reducing red tape and regulations. She pointed to the planning and zoning board currently going through an audit to ensure outdated language is removed and only administrative fees are charged. She also wants to eliminate the business personal property tax.

“That sends a clear message to our small businesses that Jefferson County is open for business,” Francone said.

Jefferson County Assessor Republican Brian Cassidy, who beat Assessor Ron Sandstrom in the primary, and Democrat Scot Kersgaard are running for the office.

Cassidy has had a career in real estate since 1994 and said the assessor needs to have experience in that field. Cassidy said he wants to ensure the assessor’s office is fair and accurate.

Kersgaard said the assessor’s office employs experienced appraisers so he sees the job as the “CEO” to manage the office.

He said he wants to modernize the office with technology to make it more accurate and more efficient.

County Clerk & Recorder Democrat George Stern is challenging incumbent Faye Griffin, a Republican.

Stern said he believes he can have the biggest impact on government from this position.

“I think that given the gridlock and partisanship we see at higher levels of government, local government has never been as important as it is today,” Stern said. “The clerk’s office is the perfect place to make sure local government is working for everyone because it oversees areas that impact everyone, including all of our county DMV offices and all of our elections.”

Griffin, the incumbent, did not attend the event and did not return Colorado Community Media’s call by press deadline.

VOICES Matters of the heart hit close to home

t this writing, I am contemplating – with some trepidation – an upcoming procedure called a coronary angiogram. I’ve known something is wrong for a few years (part of the reason for my recent leave of absence), and testing recommended by an astute doctor who put all the pieces together revealed that I do indeed have a problem. The angiogram will determine the extent of that problem and whether I need to have one or more stents placed in the arteries to my heart during the process.

I don’t fear not coming out alive. It’s a pretty routine procedure … send a tiny camera from my wrist up through the veins to my heart, check it all out, and place the stent(s) if necessary.

Successful completion of this process

is likely to improve my quality of life significantly – I’ve been out of breath for years.

(Because of the car accident last year, I haven’t reALCHEMY turned to anything resembling my previous level of physical activity, and I was pretty much expecting the cardiologist to tell me that I’m seriously out of shape.

This may still be true but they detected more than that. And now here we are.)

Andrea Doray No, my trepidation stems from the unknown. What will they find? What will they do with what they find? And, perhaps most

importantly, how will I feel after all this? That “all this” has me reflecting on the heart, both as a vital organ and as a symbol … a symbol of love, hope, faith, courage and tenderness.

Did you know the heart does not actually beat? It wrings itself out 100,803 times a day. And throughout these nearly 101,000 gyrations, we feel our hearts. We feel the “beats.” And, sometimes, we know when these beats aren’t quite right (as I have for some time). But we also feel the pulsing of love, the ache of sorrow, the pain of loss, the fortitude of strength.

Our hearts can become heavy. They can break. They can expand to encompass the world. It is said that mythical Cupid’s mythical arrow can pierce our very real hearts with romance.

So maybe that’s really where my

apprehension figures in. Will I still be able to love, grieve, empathize and sympathize through the thumping thing in my chest? Will a slender cylinder or two of metal sanitize my heart’s capacity to wring itself out of sorrow or beat its way into exhilaration? Will my heart still swell with affection or pound in outrage? Could this once-reliable compass of emotion begin to lead me astray?

Intellectually, of course, I know that the physical status of my heart won’t be a factor in my ability to experience emotion. My heart is simply a muscular organ that pumps blood to my body. Improving its capability and efficiency can only be an advantage.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Critiquing the critique In the Sept. 18 edition columnist Michael Alcorn wrote the column “Big Projects, like moving a school grade, have a lot of little steps.” As noted by the author, neighborhood schools were built during a different era. A time when students walked to school with friends and neighbors. However, the author failed to mention a great change to public schools in Colorado. School choice is, by Colorado law, the ability for any child to elect not to attend their neighborhood school in favor of a school across town in

Since Jeffco Schools lacks the financial ability to provide bussing to every student at no cost, this may contribute to the large amounts of traffic not just at Arvada area middle schools, but across Jeffco.

bussing at low or no cost to families to lessen the amount of traffic? I’m unsure why Mr. Alcorn would openly criticize his colleague in the paper, a person at the local level who is working on the little steps at the towards a solution. If community members like Mr. Alcorn have the time and interest to solve this issue, please join us on the Jeffco Schools Start Times Task Force. The insight that can be gained from critical friends would be put to good use.

Katie Winner, Arvada Opposition to school funding perplexes I must say those who do not support the school funding measures on the ballot this November perplex me.

Many of these letters promote halftruths, misinformation or outright lies.

First off, these measures are not a blank check for Jeffco. Anyone can go to the Jeffco Schools website and see very clearly how this money would be spent. It is all there for anyone to see. To say otherwise is disingenuous at best.

It is a convoluted argument to believe that denying additional funding to schools will somehow improve student achievement. A mid-career educator in Jeffco on average makes $12,737 less than mid-career educators in surrounding school districts.

It defies logic that student achievement would improve when many of the most experienced and qualified teachers leave Jeffco for more pay.

Most of the schools in Jeffco were built before 1980 and because a major bond has not passed in several years, many needed repairs and upgrades have been deferred. I believe that having a classroom that does not have raw sewage back up in it, windows and ceilings that do not leak, and updated technology would help increase academic achievement.

As for Amendment 73, 93 percent of taxpayers will not pay more taxes.

Instead of fluctuating from year to year, property taxes will be lowered and then. All the while increasing education funding by $1 Billion a year.

Yes on 5A/5B and Amendment 73.

My kids, your kids, our kids deserve it and our future needs it.

Dale Munholland, Arvada Support for Titone House District 27 has the opportunity to elect a women with the knowledge we need to solve the problems confronting our state.

Briana Titone was a geologist, with degrees in physics, computer technology, and hydrology. She understands the problems we face in Colorado concerning energy and water.

MaryAnn Larsen, Arvada

More of Gwyn Green’s accomplishments When the Governor proposed completing the Denver Beltway from C-470 in Golden to the end of the NW Parkway, Gwyn became the main voice in opposition. She frequently reminded everyone that the proposition to build “W-470” to complete the Beltway had been voted down by a large majority. At city council meetings and other venues she spoke out against a six-lane high-speed superhighway coming through Golden, and gave many reasons why it should not be built. She was the leader of activists against the highway called CINQ, Citizens Involved in the NW Quadrant. When she was a member of the Colorado Legislature she arranged to have other activists testify against the highway at a meeting of the Transportation Committee. Unfortunately, the Committee members found no reason to change plans for building the highway.

The Jeffco Commissioners proposed building the Jefferson Parkway (JP) high-speed highway from SH-93 north of Golden to SH-123 south of Interlocken, to be extended to the NW Parkway. Golden opposed building the JP and prepared a Plan to improve travel through Golden that was approved by CDOT, DRCOG and the Jeffco Commissioners. Seriously affected by ALS, Gwyn bravely attended a meeting with a Jeffco Commissioner to explain that the JP is not needed, not wanted, and unaffordable; and to request that no more taxpayer money be spent on the project. The Commissioners have continued to spend millions of taxpayer dollars on the project, even though no state or federal money will be available to support it.

Dick Sugg, Golden Think of heating costs with Prop 112 vote When it comes to considering Prop 112, which would increase setbacks for new oil and gas drilling operations from 500 feet to 2,500 feet, one of the things I keep coming back to is our home heating costs. Colorado produces a lot of natural gas, and natural gas is cheap. On average, our home heating costs are about 23 percent lower than the rest of the country, which translates to $1,200 annual savings in disposable income.

The reason is that we produce it here ourselves.

If Proposition 112 passes, 85 percent of the state becomes off-limits to new development, which will force Colorado to import natural gas from other places. Imports mean higher prices. I’m fortunate enough to be able to absorb the increased costs, but think of those struggling to make ends meet. Increasing the cost of natural gas on them places an unnecessary added hardship.

One other thing to consider is that Colorado passed the “Clean Air Clean Jobs Act” in 2013, which is now getting fully implemented, helping our air quality by retiring old coal-fired power plants with cleanerburning natural gas ones. We are now even more dependent upon natural gas for our power needs than ever before.

Natural gas is good for Colorado – for our economy, for our workforce,

and for our air quality. Let’s not take a step back with this misguided setback initiative. Please join me in voting no on Proposition 112.

James Cole, Arvada Supporting Net Neutrality Because of the recent federal ruling to remove net neutrality protections, we may soon see “throttling” or slowing down of selected applications like Netflix or Facebook. ISPs may start charging additional fees if we want certain apps. This comes at a critical time for Colorado since our legislature just voted to invest in broadband across the state to make internet more accessible to all.

I recently saw Brianna Titone (D), Arvada candidate for State House, speak with Representative Chris Hansen (D) about ways to protect net neutrality in Colorado. Brianna recently earned her Masters degree in Software Development and understands the issue and its impact to average citizens. She supports a bill

that Rep. Hansen sponsored earlier this year to protect net neutrality in Colorado. (Unfortunately, the bill was killed in the State Senate.) Interestingly, Phil Weiser (D), candidate for Colorado’s Attorney General, helped craft the bill. It was important to craft it in such a way as to legally “get around” the federal provision which attempts to prohibit states from implementing their own statewide protections.

I care about net neutrality because I believe every Coloradan should have equal access to to internet, regardless of their ability to pay additional fees. I think broadband service providers make enough money already. If you agree, I hope you vote this November – state elections matter – and I hope you vote for Brianna Titone (D) and Phil Weiser (D) who will support net neutrality and who have the expertise to make it happen.

Autumn has list full of ways to be wistful

A

utumn. A six-letter word that summons hundreds, and all of them are apples and the color orange.

My friend Thoreau said, “I would rather sit on a pumpQUIET kin, and have it all to myself than be DESPERATION crowded on a velvet cushion.”

I hope that didn’t make you Thoreau up.

Autumn is a perfect time to reminisce about the year and about life. It comes just ahead of the mania of Christmas, which now enters the Craig Marshall room much too early.

Smith Those of us who are graying might look at the leaves on our lawns and streets and remember a childhood moment when our lives were politicians-free and politics-free.

O

But now.

“Press 1, if you plan to vote in the upcoming election.”

“Press 2, if you plan to vote for a Republican.”

“Press 3, if you plan to vote for a Democrat.”

“Press 4, if you would like me to jump in a lake with a sack over my head.”

Here in Colorado, the four seasons kind of run together, like picnic food on a paper plate. Back East, things are different. The seasons all change when they are supposed to, and rarely get confused.

If you have been here long enough, you might remember the Oct. 15, 1984, Monday Night Football game played at Mile High Stadium. In a blizzard.

Nora Ephron said, “Don’t you love the fall? It makes me want to buy school supplies. I would send you a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address.”

My nearest grocery store has had

ceramic pumpkins out front for over a month, and now, long before Halloween, there are actual pumpkins. The minute Halloween has come and gone, I’ll start to see — and hear — the pep rally for Dec. 25.

I could do without the pep rally, but its inevitability is inevitable, isn’t it?

They might be hawking holiday gifts on the home shopping channels right now.

October was always my favorite month of the year, because I was born in October, and October meant gifts.

Now it seems like there are two Octobers (or more) every year. I was 30 just a minute ago.

Quiz: Who yelled at falling leaves because it meant winter was next?

“Stay up there. Stop falling. Stop falling, I say.” Answer at the bottom.

Raking leaves is an annual chore.

Some of my neighbors leave it (as it were) to the wind, and I wind up raking them instead.

There are other exterior jobs to be done before yard maintenance goes into hibernation, and most of them I don’t mind.

F. Scott Fitzgerald said, “Life starts all over when it gets crisp in the fall.”

It will be nice not to hear the air conditioner doing its best to keep up with our record-setting summer. It will be nice to wear clothes around the house again. Once the dog sitter arrived a day early. Say no more.

When I was a kid, this time of year meant I had a big decision to make.

Who to be on Halloween. I was a hobo one year. Flash Gordon another time.

Hopalong Cassidy.

I knew I was too old for it when I was asked who I was, and I said, “Karma.

Are you worried?”

`I Can Only Imagine’ what happens when we tell our own story

ne of my very favorite songs is

by MercyMe, and the name of the song is, “I Can Only Imagine.” You may have heard it before. You may have seen the movie that was made about the song and its writer Bart Millard and the band MercyMe. The song was written and recorded in 1999 and rerecorded and rereleased in 2001. When ringtones were first

made available, at least when my kids introduced ringtones to me, it became my ringtone whenever anyone would call me, and I just loved whenever my phone rang. And even when I hear the first few notes today, it still brings a tear to my eye.

The statistics for this song are truly amazing as it was a powerful crossover song, meaning “I Can Only Imagine”

had significant and meaningful success across all genres of music from pop to country, and of course, Christian rock.

I am fairly confident you have heard it, but of you haven’t, you should.

As powerful as the notes of the music are, and as humbling and inspiring as the lyrics are, the story behind the song is even that much more significant. To WINNING understand what I am WORDS talking about, I encourage you to watch the movie. Since it had come out, many friends and many of you had encouraged me to go see it. But I never had. Until last week. And it is an incredible film, with Michael Norton an even more amazing story.

And that brings me to my point of this week’s column. The story behind the story. You see, in the movie Bart Millard is an incredible talent, with a moving voice and engaging personality. And he and the band can bring in the crowds as they play their music, but it’s not “their” music, it’s not “their” story, it’s not Bart’s story. And in one of the most memorable moments of the movie, of Bart’s story, when their manager tells him that he, Bart, needs to tell his story in a song, you can feel your heart race, and your pulse quicken, and the tears form in your eye, because we all have a story.

Bart Millard’s story was not pleasant, but in the end, it was beautiful, so incredibly beautiful. I hope that make sense, if not, please watch the movie.

Now I am not sharing this with you because we all have an unpleasant story — some of us do, and some of us don’t.

But what I do know is that we all have a story. Each and every one of us. And you do not have to write a column in this paper to share your story with your family, loved ones, or friends. You just need to share your story with them and with others who can appreciate it, learn from it, and maybe even pass it along.

You have a song to sing, a story to tell, a novel to write, a poem to share, and a picture to paint. I still do too even after 10 years of writing this column — it’s all not out there yet. And the most powerful and significant of all stories ever told and still yet to be told is the story of love and forgiveness. That story was brought to life in the song and in the movie, “I Can Only Imagine.”

So how about you? Oh, I am sure you have a story to tell, have you told it?

Have you shared it? I encourage you to share it with your family, friends, and loved ones. And if not, please share it with me at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we can share our own stories, and live the story of love and forgiveness, it really will be a better than good life.

And, what’s even more troubling, perhaps for all of us, is that Jefferson County is about to be buried under the sludge of the political swamp. As a bellwether district, both national parties and the media watch what happens in Jefferson County fairly closely, plus, we’re in a mid-major television market. It all adds up to us needing to brace for an onslaught of advertising dollars.

Which, in its practical form, usually means sludge.

Please allow me to make a recommendation: turn off your media sources. The swamp feeds on our attention — starve it. Instead, go outside and water your lawn by hand, wave “hi” to the neighbors, strike up a conversation. Talk about the kids, their soccer season, the road projects that frustrate your commute. Talk about real life things, the kinds of things that all those people on your television don’t understand, or want you to stop paying attention to. I think you’ll find that the really important parts of people can be discovered by communicating a little bit, and — here’s a little secret — none of those parts have very much to do with politics, at all.

Tim Allen, in the re-debut of “Last Man Standing” last Friday night, said that “not communicating has become our weapon of choice.” We un-friend, un-follow, dis-associate and disrespect each other as a sort

of sport. I, literally, had two of my friends, people who have known each other for 31 years, block each other on Facebook last week over an argument about Kavanaugh/Ford. This is a zero-sum game, people — starve. the. swamp. Don’t play in to it.

I don’t think America is broken; I know that Arvada and Jefferson County aren’t broken. But Washington, D.C.? That place may be beyond hope. Fight off that infection by simply connecting to the people around you.

Next step: some sort of statutory requirement that our “representatives” have to spend significant time among us, as well, and, more importantly, out of the swamp. But that’s a battle for another day.

This past weekend, I had the distinct pleasure of hearing the Stratus Chamber Orchestra perform in conjunction with the Life/Arts Dance Company. It was wonderful! And there are two similar organizations at the Arvada Center for the Performing Arts, and a number of community bands and orchestras around town, and, maybe, one of the top dance companies in the country in Cleo Parker Robinson. My point is that if you want to experience beauty, there are opportunities all over the city to see and hear wonderful art without it costing you a week’s salary. Check ‘em out this weekend!

A new play by Duncan Macmillan. It’s a love story about a stereotypical young couple. It’s funny, edgy and current. It expresses the voices of the millennial generation, which is grossly under represented on the stage. Scarf wearing, coffee house drinking, so utterly self-absorbed and immature. How are these two people ever going to be able to handle the responsibility of caring for another human being? If you really care about the planet, if you are a “good” person, is it right to have a child? Particularly when the carbon footprint of that infant will be 10,000 tons of CO2?

HAUNTING Inside the long-running Reinke Brothers Haunted Mansion in Littleton, fake zombies, ghosts and ghouls distract people from hidden live actors waiting to terrify them.

JESSICA GIBBS

Halloween attractions find challenges amid venues’ popularity

O

n a late September day, Andrew Smith walked through a downtown Littleton shop unlike most on the block.

Inside the Reinke Brothers costume, prop and Halloween store on Prince Street, bundles of hairy spiders dangled from the ceiling, eyeballs filled cabinet shelves and a deli counter held an odd assortment of limbs, heads, guts and the like.

Before Smith left, he made sure to ask when the shop’s haunted house opens for the 2018 season.

He hasn’t been to a haunted house for a long time, he said, but the Littleton resident hasn’t forgotten coming to the Reinke Brothers Haunted Mansion about 10 years ago.

“I remember it being pretty cool,” he said. Haunted houses in general, Smith believes, offer “dark, creepy” fun.

People like to be scared, said Greg Reinke, who runs the Haunted Mansion from within his store with his brother, Chris, and people particularly like to be scared when they know they are actually safe.

On Sept. 25, Greg, Chris and a handful of staff were busy putting the final touches on their haunted house, which runs from Sept. 28 through Nov. 4.

Reinke doesn’t know how many people will come through their doors

this year. There’s been a lot of buzz as the Haunted Mansion, which will operate for its 50th year in 2018, is reopening after a nearly three-year hiatus.

But in years past, they’ve seen between 18,000 and 30,000 people a season.

The National Retail Federation reported 21 percent of Americans plan to visit a haunted house in 2018. That figure has had held relatively steady in recent years, with 23 percent of Americans in 2017 and 21 percent in 2016 planning to visit such an attraction.

The building interest in haunted houses grew a few years ago, according to the NRF surveys, such as in 2009, 2010 and 2011, when the percentage of people expecting to visit a haunted house grew each year.

High expectations, big productions With the growing popularity of haunted houses has come growing expectations, said Joe Palombo, co-owner of the 40-acre scream park Haunted Field of Screams, located in

Thornton.

Palombo, the Reinkes and other organizers behind Denver metro area haunted houses and spooky attractions are busy preparing for thousands of people to visit their events in the coming weeks while also attempting to keep up with mounting pressure to leave their customers entertained.

“Every year, actually, it gets tough.

You try to revisit things you’ve done well and think of ways to make them better. You try to pick other people’s brains to figure out what scares them,” Palombo said.

Palombo, his brother Mark Villano and sister Gina Palombo-Dinkel started the scream park in 2001 as a daytime corn maze and pumpkin patch.

But people started showing up later, wanting to go through the maze at after dark. The siblings quickly realized they could easily turn it into a haunt, Palombo said.

For its 18th year, the park now comprises four attractions — some indoor, some outdoor and all with interactive elements like escape rooms, plus evil clowns and zombies. Tickets get customers access to each section of the park.

They don’t turn anyone away, but they also don’t recommend children younger than 12 years old attempt the park, Palombo said.

To pull the production off, Palombo and his siblings employ nearly 100 actors, which requires a team of 20 more people to manage costuming, makeup and special effects for the cast each night.

mily Van Fleet and John Hutton are very familiar with the words in the Arvada Center’s Black Box seasonopener, “Educating Rita.” After all, they’re the only two people on the stage for the entirety of the show.

But while they may know the lines, its not until an audience sits down to watch the show that they’ll fully understand what the play is about.

“There’s an energy you read when you’re in front of an audience,” Van Fleet explained.

“How they react to the show tells you everything about what the show is really about,” Hutton added.

The new Black Box season kicks off with “Educating Rita,” playing from Oct. 5 through Nov. 11 at the Arvada Center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd. PerformancCOMING es are at 7:30 p.m.

ATTRACTIONS Thursday through Saturday, 1 p.m. on Wednesday and 2 p.m. on Sunday.

Directed by Lynne Collins and loosely based on George Bernard Shaw’s “Pygmalion” — the same story that inspired Clarke Reader “My Fair Lady” and “Pretty Woman” — the show centers on Frank and Rita. Frank is a failed poet and professor and Rita is a working-class hairdresser. The two don’t appear to have much in common, but when Rita comes to Frank to learn, they discover new depths in themselves and each other.

“There are all these dynamics at play between them,” Hutton said.

“Issues like age and class, and we get a chance to explore them.”

The show is a comedy, so audiences should expect to laugh along the way, but they also shouldn’t be surprised at how moved they are by the connection between the characters.

“The show takes place in the ‘80s, but it’s just as relevant to today’s world,” Van Fleet said. “There’s a really human relationship happening between these two people and that’s the best part.”

In general, props and makeup used in haunted house are becoming “more Hollywood quality,” Palombo said.

“I think we’re getting a little bit better every year. I know the competition is definitely getting stiffer, and becoming more of an industry,” he said.

Reinke and Palambo both say these aren’t easy productions to carry out.

For the trio behind the Haunted Field of Screams, it’s a year-round venture.

Villano, a farmer, plants the park’s cornfield in early May. By June they’re cutting out the maze. In August, they begin constructing the sets from scratch. In the off season, they’re holding regular planning sessions.

Reinke and his brother personally built the interior of their haunt shop and customize each stage of their haunted house, which they fill with nearly 20 actors who hide and lurch at the thrill-seekers coming through.

Unlike the Haunted Field of Screams, the Haunted Mansion is family-friendly, Reinke said, and they offer children’s tours during the day.

Haunted houses, for real Theatrical haunted houses aren’t the only way to get a good scare this season. Ghost hunters can visit what many believe to be real haunted houses on various tours, including the Historic Ghost Tour and Pub Crawl, based in Golden.

Run by Suzanne Restle, who said she’s personally witnessed evidence of ghosts in Golden’s historic buildings, the attraction takes people 21 and older on a pub crawl and walking tour of the community’s paranormal hotspots.

It portrays historical events through actors, with stories such as a crooked mayor who overdosed on drugs and a notorious murder known as Golden’s Night of Terror.

Although they offer historic tours year-round, the Halloween-themed

tour in October seems to dredge up unexplainable occurrences, Restle said, particularly when she ran her vintage photography business from a downtown building also featured on the tour.

“Every night we did a tour something strange would happen,” Restle said. “The water would get turned on in the bathroom. Doors would slam.

Pictures would fall off the walls. They (ghosts) definitely wanted us to know they were paying attention to what they were doing.”

Last year, Restle said, every weekend of the tour sold out.

The NRF conducts a survey annually to gauge how much and in what ways consumers plan to spend on the nation’s spookiest holiday. Overall, Americans are projected to drop $9 billion this year, down slightly from last year’s $9.1 billion projection.

It’s the second-highest in the survey’s 14 years running.

Reinke said he knows haunted houses can be an expensive way to celebrate the holiday, but he’s still expecting a big turnout for 2018, and

classics like “Young Frankenstein,” “Spaceballs,” “Blazing Saddles” and countless others is somehow still touring at 92, and you can see him.

Mel Brooks’ Denver stop is at the Bellco Theatre, 700 14th St. in the Colorado Convention Center, at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 6.

I could make an entire column full of Brooks’ lines that still crack me up every time, but they wouldn’t be near as funny without wizards like Gene Wilder, Richard Pryor or Cloris Leachman delivering them.

If you follow Brooks on Twitter you know he’s lost none of his wit in his near-century of life. He’s reached the point where he’s as wise as he is funny — do not miss the chance to see a genius in the flesh. Get tickets at www. bellcotheatre.com.

storming music that just doesn’t get made that often any more.

This kind of rock music sounds better outside, but seeing the Foo Fighters at the Pepsi Center, 1000 Chopper Circle in Denver, at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 10 isn’t the worst way to spend an evening.

Last year’s Foos album “Concrete and Gold” was an underrated entry into a remarkably solid discography.

But, even if the album wasn’t great, you know they’re going to break out “Everlong” at some point in the evening. That’s worth the price of admission alone.

A little extra enticement — Australia’s Gang of Youths is opening the show, and they’re one of the most literate and exciting bands I’ve come across in years. They make the kind of big album statements that would’ve fit perfectly in the ‘70s.

Company and volunteers team up to paint needy homes Eight Lakewood residents had their homes painted for free by volunteers

BY JOSEPH RIOS JRIOS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Kathi Wright is a longtime Lakewood resident who has a deep care for her community and neighbors.

Wright, a 71-year old woman, is the primary caregiver for her daughter Robyn, a 47-year-old woman who has Down syndrome.

Wright never wanted her daughter to have to go to a group home, so instead, she opted to be her caregiver — a task that Wright says is challenging.

“I have to make a choice to take care of her needs, or other things. She comes first,” Wright said. “She always has, and that’s with everything.”

With her hands full taking care of her daughter, Wright doesn’t have time to complete certain tasks at her household, like painting the exterior of it. Thanks to Brothers Redevelopment Inc., a Denver nonprofit that provides housing solutions for low-income, elderly and disabled residents, Wright was able to get her house painted for free.

Brothers didn’t just stop at her

PHOTOS BY JOSEPH RIOS house. Along with volunteers from Lakewood city employees, West Metro Fire Department, TCF Bank and others, the nonprofit went to seven other houses in the Lakewood area by painting homes and providing yard care services all over the Lakewood area.

Brothers estimates that the work it and the volunteers did saved homeowners around $5,000.

“I’m a Lakewood resident, and to get to participate with government

(employees) in my own community was really exciting. We were able to have a really successful program,” said Brothers’ volunteer coordinator Jason Stutzman.

Stutzman said Brothers applied for the Lakewood community grant, a charitable giving program, and the Community Development Block Grant Program through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, a program that provides services to

vulnerable community members, to fund the house painting projects.

Todd Heinl, a captain and paramedic for the West Metro Fire Department was one of the people who volunteered to paint Wright’s house. He said all of the volunteers had a “fantastic experience” helping out vulnerable residents.

“I think helping people out like Ms. Wright is protecting their quality of life. It’s making their home a better place to live to ensure that she, or anybody else who’s house was painted, doesn’t have to go out and do this work,” Heinl said.

High school athletics typically bring out the best of students — whether that be to teach teamwork, make friendships, or to learn leadership skills. They can also bring out competitive rivalries, where athletes are focused on one thing - winning.

At Trailblazer Stadium in Lakewood, there were no winners, or losers.

Instead there were Jefferson County high school and middle school students running around with smiles on their faces, playing soccer and encouraging each other. Some of the students have disabilities like autism. Others have down syndrome, and there were even students who were paralyzed. Disabilities didn’t matter though. The students were there to have fun through Jeffco Adapted Athletics.

There were 18 schools and 300 students who participated in soccer day in Jeffco through Jeffco Adapted Athletics, a program that gives Jeffco students with disabilities a chance to learn to play and compete in sports.

The program is set up to give students with disabilities a chance to participate in a sports program - something that some disabled students don’t have

an opportunity to do.

The day was special for Marco Morones, a 10th grader at Alameda International High School in Lakewood.

Morones ran up and down the soccer field with determination to score a goal each time he touched the ball. He was at a loss of words when he was asked what the day meant to him.

“Right now, this is really cool. The day has been really special to me, because I like to play soccer all the time,” Morones said.

Kathy Hart, a significant support needs teacher at Alameda International High School, said the Jeffco Adapted Athletics program’s impact runs deep for students with disabilities.

“It teaches great social skills, it gets them out in the community, it promotes team work and comradery, and it’s great for the students in an athletic sense,” Hart said.

The Jeffco Adapted Athletics program holds a tournament each month that zeroes in on one particular sport.

Upcoming sports for the rest of the year include flag football, bowling and volleyball. The program was started in 2007.

“We think it’s really important to offer our more challenged students an opportunity to play sports. Jeffco Adapted Athletics really fits into that,” Diana Wilson, executive director of communications for Jeffco Public Schools said. “We know students are involved beyond academics in our schools. They tend to learn better when they are.”

Jeffco library foundation celebrates beer and books Second annual Stouts & Stories, Ales and Tales beer tour takes place Sept. 28-Nov. 11

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

For the second year in a row, the Jefferson County Library Foundation is celebrating beer and books.

“We’re thrilled to be able to do this and raise money for the Jefferson County Library Foundation,” said Jo Schantz, the foundation’s executive director. “Tax dollars only go so far.

We fill in that gap of funding.”

The foundation supports Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) and Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math (STEAM) programs, summer reading and early childhood literacy at all the Jefferson County Public Libraries.

The self-guided Stouts & Stories, Ales and Tales beer tour takes place Sept. 28-Nov. 11. How it works is participants pick up a free passport from any of the 10 Jefferson County Public Libraries or at any of the four Jeffco Westerra Credit Union branch locations. Then, visit the 12 participating breweries, all local to Jefferson County, to receive stamps after a purchase.

Prizes for stamps can be redeemed at Westerra Credit Union. Participants are asked to document their brewery visits on social media to enter to win a prize at the end of the tour — make a public post or Facebook or Instagram with #JCLFonTap. A kick-off party for Stouts & Stories, Ales and Tales took place Sept. 27 at the Steel Affairs Automotive Gallery at the Lamar Street Center in Arvada.

The event featured craft breweries participating in the tour, live music, games and beer talks by the brewers themselves.

A thriving community equals thriving breweries The Golden community is supportive of its local breweries, and the breweries in turn enjoy giving back to the community.

For example, each year, Barrels & Bottles partners with Golden resident Brian Quarnstrom to brew the Brian Q Pale Boy Ale. A portion of the proceeds from the tap release party of the ale goes to the Golden Civic Foundation.

“The breweries here in Golden got into the brewery business not only because of the passion, but to be a part of a community,” said Zach George, co-owner of Barrels & Bottles along with his wife Abby.

“They do a great job at providing the surrounding community a place to gather after work, for fundraising, pre-and-post hike/bike meet ups, live music or a place to sit with your family over a few libations and good eats.”

Case in point, the Mountain Toad was named after the toad being an indicator species.

“It means that if the toads are thriving, then their environment is healthy,” said one of Mountain Toad’s founders Brian Vialpando during an October 2015 interview with the Golden Transcript. “The people are just as important as the

The Golden beer experience Golden is home to a lot of breweries and taprooms, but also good bars and restaurants, distilleries and speakeasies, said Tamara Sturdavant, Golden City Brewery’s general manager.

“There’s a lot of options,” she said, but added that she believes “people come to Golden for the experience.”

They enjoy strolling around town and seeing the history while getting to try a variety of craft beers at the different breweries, Sturdavant said.

And they like to sit outdoors, she added.

“People feel like they’re relaxed at their friend’s house, rather than sitting in a crowded pub,” Sturdavant said of Golden City Brewery’s large, outdoor patio area.

While Golden City Brewery, Barrels & Bottles and Mountain Toad feature historic downtown Golden in their backdrop, Cannonball Creek, Holidaily and New Terrain offer picturesque views of the Table Mountains from their patios.

“Good beer is a big part of what brings people in, but we’re also very recreational,” said James Lambert, a beer tender at New Terrain, noting a nearby dog park and the easy access to hiking and biking trails. “From Denver to the foothills and beyond, we have these awesome panoramic views that represent the essence of life on the front range.”

The Transcript 23

October 4, 2018

T

Arvada Center kicks off 2018-2019 season with “Mamma Mia!”

he Arvada Center couldn’t have chosen a better musical to begin the new theater season.

I love the music of ABBA. Rod A. Lansberry directs this quintessential “feel good,” show. Music and lyrics are by Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson with some songs with Stig Anderson. The book was written by Catherine Johnson. The show runs through Sept. 30. So, get there quickly.

If this piece doesn’t see the light of day before the show closes, just know you missed a great one. Perhaps it will come back, much like “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.” I would certainly vote for that.

Tunes include, “Dancing Queen,” and “Take A Chance on Me.” The story tells the tale of a single mom, her daughter, and three possible fathers.

Mariah MacFarlane is the daughter (Sophie Sheridan), her mother, Donna Sheridan is played by Shannan Steele, Piper Lindsay Arpan (Tanya), Kitty Skillman Hilsabek, (Rosie). The entire cast is very

strong and highly talented.

Others in the cast are Glenn DeVar (Sky), Mark Devine (Harry Bright), Jeffrey Roark (Bill Austin), and Daniel Robert Sullivan (Sam Carmichael). The magical set AROUND is designed TOWN

by Brian Mallgrave, Harriet Ford musical director is Nolan Bonvoular, Kitty Skillman Hilsabeck is choreographer and Clare Henkel is the costume designer.

Regional premiere of “LUNGS” at Miners Alley in Golden This production took a little time to figure out; however, once I did that, it was brilliant.

The two actor play features husband and wife team Adrian Egolf and Luke Sorge. Len Matheo (Artistic/Executive Director) directs this production, with finesse and humor.

The playwright is Duncan Macmillan. Newly-wed couple, W (Adrian Egolf) and M (Luke Sorge) are discussing having a baby … fast forward, they do get pregnant. And, fast

forward again … we see the couple attending sports and school events.

“LUNGS” has many lighthearted moments; however, there are also moments of drama and pathos. In the beginning, everything looks bright and positive; however, as the story unfolds, we discover that not all is well in Paradise. The couple eventually divorces. By the end of the play, the couple reconnect and we are left wondering if they will get back together.

Jonathan Scott-McKean designed the beautifully minimalistic set.

“LUNGS’ runs through Oct. 14 at Miners Alley Playhouse in Golden. MAP is located at 1224 Washington, in Golden.

Performances are Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m.

For tickets and information, call 303-935-3044 or online at minersalley.com. The one-act play runs for 105 minutes with no intermission.

Live theater fan Harriet Hunter Ford can be contacted at hhunterford@gmail.com.

Golden softball goes deep to defeat rival Wheat Ridge

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

GOLDEN — It was one step closer to a Class 4A Jeffco League softball title Sept. 29 for Golden.

The Demons (14-6 record, 7-0 in league) not only won its 11th straight game, but stayed undefeated in conference play with the season-series sweep of rival Wheat Ridge.

“It’s pretty amazing. I feel like every day we come prepared,” Golden junior Makenzie Middleton said of the Demons that started the season with a 3-6 record. “The first of the season was tough, but I think we have it all figured out now.”

Golden, No. 9 in last week’s CHSAANow.com 4A softball rankings, hit a trio of home runs on its way to a 11-5 victory over No. 8 Wheat Ridge (12-8,

2-5) on Saturday.

After Wheat Ridge jumped out to a quick 3-0 lead with a 3-run home run by freshman Aaliyah Arellano in the top of the first inning, it was all Demons.

Golden scored in every inning while piling up 16 hits and a trio of home runs.

Standout Performers Gabby Seigh, Bear Creek The sophomore utility player (hitting .328) provided just what her team needed, going 2-3 with two RBI’s in the Bear’s Sept. 27 win over Lakewood.

Aidan Henderson, Pomona The Sept. 27 1-1 tie against Valor Christian will be marked as a tie for Henderson, but the sophomore goalkeeper deserves credit for stopping six shots over the course of 100 minutes of game time, to keep his team in contention against a tough squad.

Will Samudio, Golden The Demon’s junior quarterback completed 13 passes to his receivers for 191 yards and two touchdowns in the 35-7 win against Aurora Central on Sept. 28. He spread the love, connecting with eight different teammates.

Allure Padilla, Faith Christian The Eagle’s junior captain was busy in the Sept. 27 volleyball win over Bishop Machebeuf. she had 10 kills, 9 digs and 18 assists over the three sets, which her team won 27-25, 25-17, 25-7.

’ve never considered “old school” to be a derogatory term, especially since I’m more old-school than I sometimes want to admit.

I do have a cell phone and know enough about computers, digital cameras and a few other modern technological devices to survive as long OVERTIME as nothing goes haywire. It is really convenient to use the cell phone but it gets a little out of control when you see six people sitting around a table at the restaurant waiting for their entrees and all are Jim Benton either talking, watching a video or playing on their phones or other devices.

When I heard that Ronnie DeGray III was not returning to Chaparral for his senior year of football and basketball and instead is attending a basketball prep school in Connecticut, it was hard not to become old-school.

There are obviously advantages of prep schools that specialize in certain sports, developmental academies in soccer or year-round club sports that don’t allow players to compete on high school teams.

It is an individual choice for athletes wanting to continue their academic studies in a prep school, but in most cases the biggest plus is the better F competition in practice and games or matches against equally skilled players and the increased exposure to college recruiters. The advantages are overwhelming and I understand why DeGray chose to head to the East Coast. But he was one of Colorado’s best returning players and the Wolverines are a talended team with a good chance to be a state contender.

“He had a blast playing in Colorado and it was tough leaving his friends,” said DeGray’s father and former Valor Christian coach Ronnie. “The opportunity for him to play in front and around more college talent to get him ready for college was too good. It was the kid’s decision.”

DeGray, a 6-foot-6 power forward, averaged 21 points and 6.6 rebounds a game last season, made 59 percent of his field goal attempts including 46 percent from 3-point range and helped the Wolverines post a 21-5 record.

My biggest argument against prep schools, developmental academies and early specialization is that athletes should enjoy playing in high school because it will probably be the last time that their sport is not considered a job. But that’s a lingering old-school thought.

Green Mountain boys soccer knocks off the rust against Wheat Ridge

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

LAKEWOOD — It took a little bit, but Green Mountain’s boys soccer team was able to flip the switch in time at Lakewood Memorial Field on Sept. 24.

Wheat Ridge, looking for its first win of the season, grabbed a surprising 1-0 lead with a goal from junior Jean Baptiste Uwayezu in the 24th minute.

“Wheat Ridge came out hard and didn’t quit,” Green Mountain coach Ken Fehr said. “We didn’t come out hard and had to come from behind. Tying it before halftime was good.”

Green Mountain senior Zach Jesaitis got the equalizer in the 36th minute off a great centering pass from junior Connor Haussler. The Rams went on to score six unanswered goals to an eventual 6-1 victory.

“Connor had a beautiful run down the outside and crossed it in. I was running in parallel to him,” Jesaitis said describing his first of three goals on the night.

“It was a nice shot to the corner and it went in.”

It was all Rams in the opening 15 minutes of the second half as Green Mountain (9-2 record, 2-1 in Class 4A Jeffco) poured in five more goals. Wheat Ridge (0-10, 0-1) fought hard, but couldn’t match the Rams’ offensive power in the second half.

“The first half was excellent,” Wheat Ridge coach Dave Osse said. “We’ve been struggling all year. We’re kind of young and things just haven’t gone our way. We did a great job first half.”

The goal the Farmers scored in the first half was just the third goal Green Mountain had surrendered this season.

SOFTBALL

FROM PAGE 26

Senior Katherine Dunson started out the long-ball barrage for Golden with a deep solo home run to center in the bottom of the third inning. The blast extended the Demons’ lead to 7-3.

“I wish I could have hit a home run

The Rams’ 2-0 loss to 5A Jeffco’s Chatfield was the lone other goals Green Mountain has given up so far this year.

“If you don’t finish your opportunities when you have them you let teams hang around,” Fehr said. “We did it in the second half.”

Jesaitis, junior Greyson Gines and senior Konrad Buschbacher scored three goals in a total of four minutes from the 52nd and 56th minutes. Gines added a goal on a penalty kick in the 60th minute and Jesaitis finished off his hat-trick in the 65th minute.

“It bounced off his (defender’s) arm.

I kind of felt bad,” Jesaitis said of his final goal. “I kind of felt bad. I didn’t want to celebrate too much. We were already up 6-1.”

Green Mountain hadn’t played in 10 days since winning its conference opener 1-0 against D’Evelyn on Sept. 14.

“We didn’t underestimate Wheat Ridge by any means,” Fehr said. “But we didn’t come out the way we did. We had a couple of days off and it showed.”

The Rams did suffer their first conference loss of the season Sept. 28 at the North Area Athletic Complex. Golden (9-2, 3-0) took a 3-0 victory over Green Mountain.

Wheat Ridge had a week off before turning to Lakewood Memorial next Monday, Oct. 1, (after press deadline) to face Evergreen.

“We’ve got to find a way,” said Osse of the Farmers going after their first victory. “We’ll keep plugging a way at it.”

“It’s just a great feeling to contribute to this win.”

Golden senior pitcher Cassidy Paulson helped herself out with a solo blast to start off the bottom of the fourth inning. After giving up three hits on the mound in the first inning, Paulson was nearly perfect from the second through

the sixth inning. She gave up just one hit over the middle five innings.

“She (Paulson) will give up her hits, but she ultimately settles down and trusts her defense behind her,” Golden coach Chad Herbers said. “It all starts with her in the circle. She had an amazing game.”

Wheat Ridge did get a 2-run home run by sophomore Jalesa Lujan in the top of the seventh inning to stop the 11 unanswered runs by the Demons.

Makenzie Middleton finished off Golden’s home run party with a solo home run in the fifth inning to give the Demons double-digit runs for the fourth straight game. Makenzie was a triple short of hitting for the cycle, while her twin sister Makayla Middleton went 3-for-5 from the plate with a triple.

“Any home run is a great home run.

Home runs lift the energy up, but with

this team we’ll get just as much energy from Molly Hord’s swinging bunt with the bases loaded,” Herbers said referring to Hord’s RBI hit in the fourth inning. “I can’t be prouder with what they are doing right now.”

Golden knows it can’t relax heading into the final week of conference play.

The Demons host Evergreen (10-10, 6-1) at 4 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 2 (after press deadline). The game will likely decide the conference champion.

“We are after one game, the next one,” Herbers said about the Demons being three conference wins away from completing a league sweep. “Now we have to reset and play Evergreen. They are going to be tough.”

BENTON FROM PAGE 26

Oh mercy According to CHSAANow.com, the baseball committee is recommending that the mercy rule be tweaked.

As it stands now, the mercy rule ends a game when one team is ahead by 10 runs after five innings. The committee would like to see the rule amended to state that the game will still end with one team in front by 10 runs after five innings but the game would also stop if a team is on top by 15 runs after four innings or 20 runs after three frames.

The committee’s recommendation will be voted on next month by the CHSAA’s board of directors.

This is a tweak that should be en-

dorsed because nobody likes to play in or watch these kinds of games.

The committee also recommended a universal pitch count for both varsity and sub-varsity instead of the current different limits for the sub-varsity pitchers.

There was talk about adding a sixth classification, which I hope is nothing more than talk. There are too many classes already and no recommendation was made for this or for forming a top-level division of the top 16 or 24 teams and reclassifying the remaining schools. Postseason playoff formats were debated without any recommendations being made.

Section 1. Section 18.70.020, Applicability/exemptions, of the Golden Municipal Code is hereby repealed in its entirety and reenacted to read as follows:

Sec. 18.70.020. Scope and Applicability.

(1) The provisions of this chapter shall apply to the issuance of building permits for all new dwelling units within the City of Golden except: (a) Structures located, or to be located, upon land owned by the Colorado School of Mines, which are used to house only Colorado School of Mines students, staff, or faculty. (b) Expansion or remodeling of residential property, if the number of dwelling units is not increased by reason of such expansion or remodeling. (c) Industrial or commercial construction, unless such industrial or commercial construction includes structures which are to be occupied as a dwelling. (d) Residential development projects excluded by regular or special election in accordance with subsection 18.70.020(2). (e) Residential development projects granted a reapportionment by City council ordinance as set forth in subsection 18.70.020(3).

(2) A residential development project may be specifically excluded from meeting the requirements of this chapter, if the electors of the City of Golden, through the petition process, adopt an ordinance enacting such an exclusion at a regular or special election. Such election shall be held according to the applicable provisions of the Golden City Charter, with any expenses covered by the party requesting the exclusion.

(3) City council may approve an ordinance granting a reapportionment of available annual allocations or future allocations, and upon such conditions as it may prescribe, to a qualifying residential development project sufficient for use and issuance of building permits in the calendar year in which such request was made, or in future years as determined by the conditions of the ordinance. City council's action shall occur following public hearing and recommendation by planning commission. Planning commission's hearing and recommendation, and city council's hearing and decision on the requested reapportionment, shall follow the hearing and notice procedures in sections 18.48.040 and 18.48.050. (a) City council will grant such reapportionment upon a finding that all of the following criteria, as may be applicable, are met:

(b) For any transit-oriented project or multifamily affordable dwelling unit project, the ordinance approving the reapportionment shall provide that all dwellings in the project will secure a sufficient number of allocations either prior to the issuance of building permit or within the following four calendar years through a specific assignment or distribution in city council's annual distribution resolution as provided in section 18.70.060, or by use of surplus allocations in the year end pool. (c) A senior housing project developed without having to secure all required allocations based upon the provisions of this chapter in effect prior to December 31, 2014 shall not be converted to another residential use without first having secured an allocation for each dwelling to be so converted, according to the provisions of this chapter. (d) In approving an ordinance under subsection 18.70.020(3) for either a transit-oriented project or an affordable dwelling unit project, City council shall have the authority to reapportion available annual allocations on a per unit basis within a residential, mixed use or mixed income development.
