SANTA LOVES A PARADE

By Andrea Doray Special to Colorado Community Media

At the Wheat Ridge 2020 10th Anniversary Gala “Forward from Here” on Dec. 8, members of the organization renewed their commitment to the community, unveiling a new name and identity.

Wheat Ridge 2020 is now Wheat Ridge Localworks, a community-based nonprofit development corporation whose mission is to advance Wheat Ridge as a vibrant and sustainable community. Localworks has its roots in the City of Wheat Ridge’s Neighborhood Revitalization Plan, which was created in 2005 to attract new households and businesses to the city.

“The Wheat Ridge 2020 name originally spoke to a vision for the future,” said Executive Director Britta Fisher. “Our new name embodies our evolution not only as a catalyst for revitalization, but also as a community connection. Localworks shines the spotlight on what really makes the community great: impassioned and committed residents and local businesses.”

Fisher explained that Localworks is defined by three pillars of action – Connect, Volunteer, Create – that put the power of change in the community’s hands. Residents can become members of Localworks free of charge by signing up on the organization’s website.

“Our goal is to ensure everyone has a role and a voice in the future of the city,” said Fisher. “You will be able to join committees, volunteer at events, learn about local businesses and have the inside scoop on everything Wheat Ridge.”

Kelsey Robb serves on the Localworks board and is a member of the Communications Advisors Team.

“Our identity as Localworks reflects a renewed focus to provide this platform for residents and businesses to interact,” said Robb.

Santa Claus waves to the crowd Dec. 5 during the Olde Golden Christmas Holiday Parade. The community had three opportunities to see the parade and participate in other holiday traditions this year. The last parade is scheduled for 11 a.m. Dec. 19.

The route is along Washington Avenue between 10th and 13th streets in historic downtown Golden.

After the parade, the community enjoys dancing in the street with fun holiday characters on Washington Avenue, which was closed to traffic. People also visited with Santa Claus, took holiday hayrides or Newfoundland dog cart rides and listened to Victorian carolers during the day’s festivities.

Planned demolition proceeding at Heritage Square

Amusement park remains, Victorian village faces tear-down

By Christy Steadman csteadman@colorado communitymedia.com Seven buildings in Heritage Square — which some local historians consider historic because of their age, architecture and Disney connection — are

slated to be demolished as early as spring next year.

Property owner Martin Marietta is moving forward with demolishing the structures that make up part of the Victorian village of Heritage Square, a longtime Denver-area entertainment and tourist destination that holds great nostalgic value to families and residents who enjoyed its attractions over generations.

The city of Golden’s Historic

Preservation Board reviewed the plan at a Dec. 7 public meeting, and asked Martin Marietta to extend a deadline from January to the end of February to relocate any of the facades of the structures intended for demolition.

Martin Marietta is “willing to work with any reasonable approach,” said David Hagerman, Martin Marietta’s regional vice president. He added the company will be “forthright” on the

buildings, which were originally built for seasonal use only, contain asbestos and are in poor condition in general.

Jefferson County historian Rick Gardner is urging the public to help save the buildings.

The “structures are worth Golden’s finest efforts to save,” he said. “If it’s a matter of budget rather than will for someone who wants to do so, let’s see what we can do to bridge that.”

Heritage Square is not on

any state or national historical registry lists, but was designated a Jefferson County Centennial site by the Jefferson County Historical Commission in 1976, Gardner said.

The buildings are “not simple knockoffs of the Old West,” said Gardner, adding they were “intricately crafted” using “a rare architecture called Storybook style.”

FACES AMONG US Maureen Harper came to Wheat Ridge from Cleveland, Ohio, and wants to encourage more engagement in the community.

HELLO

...

My Name Is

A glimpse of the people in our community

MAUREEN HARPER Wheat Ridge’s new public information officer

creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com About me I’m from Cleveland, Ohio, and spent most of my career there.

I always had a dream of moving out west, and I did spend some time in New Mexico on a backpacking trip, which is where I met my husband. Eventually we were able to move out to Colorado in October of last year.

I received my Bachelor’s degree in communications, theater and English from Heidelberg University, and a Master’s in Interpersonal Communication from Bowling Green State University, both in Ohio.

Previous experience My interest in this kind of work started in high school. At first I wanted to be a scientist, but then I read “All the President’s Men” for a class, and thought, “That’s what I want to do!” I wanted to be a journalist, but then in college I took a public speaking class, and

got pulled into the speech team, and shifted from journalism to political communication.

I worked for the City of Cleveland for 12-and-a-half years. It was a fantastic job that gave me a lot of learning experience.

When I was offered the Chief of Communications job, I asked the mayor what it entailed, and he said “If we communicate anything to anyone, you’re responsible for it.”

Upon coming to Denver, I was Chief Communications Officer at Denver Public Schools, but wanted to get back to local government.

In my free time...

I have three kids — one in high school, middle school and kindergarten, so I hang out with them a lot.

I love the outdoors, especially camping and hiking. I also love to read. My husband is a musician, so it’s always fun to go see him play.

What I want to accomplish Local government is the level of government people can truly connect with. They can reach out and touch local government, which is more difficult, the higher up in the system it gets. Local government is what makes the community work, from public works to how attractive the community is.

I want better engagement in the community, because it demands it. People want to be engaged and have a voice.

Hear the bell? It’s the sound of goodwill The sound of the tinkling bell drifts across the parking lot, growing louder the closer you get to the King Soopers entrance.

There it is, a red bell so tiny it nestles neatly into Nathan Gray’s hand.

“Happy holidays,” Ann Macari he says, as a customer Healey walks by.

“Merry Christmas, guys. Have a good day.”

A hand drops a dollar bill into the red kettle.

“Thank you,” he says, with a wide smile that seeps into his eyes. “Have a blessed day.”

Gray, 33, a floppy Santa hat on his head, is a bell ringer for the Salvation Army. Just about every day, from the week before Black Friday until Christmas Day, he rings his bell at the front of a King Soopers, enticing contributions from those who cross its threshhold with a grin, a greeting, a compliment, a blessing.

He’s one of about 700 bell ringers in the Salvation Army Intermountain Division, which covers Colorado, Utah, Wyoming and eastern Montana. They’re crucial to the organization’s bottom line — the holiday kettle drive is the year’s largest donation generator.

“This is by far the most effective way to raise money,” spokesperson Tahreem Pasha-Glenn says. “It’s the most recognized fundraiser in the country.”

This holiday season, in an ironic twist, an improving economy has created a shortage of bell ringers, which means a number of locations have no kettles.

The empty spots are worrisome, Pasha-Glenn says, because when it comes to providing services needed by families and individuals struggling simply to sur-

vive, every dollar matters.

“Every single dollar that goes into the kettle,” she says, “stays in the community.”

That’s why a good bell ringer is a gift.

The ones who return year after year, seasoned by experience, well, “they’re fantastic,” Pasha-Glenn says. “We see a difference in the amount of donations they bring in. We so appreciate our bell ringers.”

The bell ringers are comprised of mostly volunteers, but also include some — such as Gray — for whom it’s seasonal work.

And for Gray, the job is a joy.

The father of two, who lives in Aurora, stumbled into it three seasons ago when he was looking for work through a temp agency. He had such a good time he’s made it a regular capstone to his working year, which generally consists of jobs as a garbage collector and landscape worker.

This year, he’s also a driver, picking up Healey continues on Page 15

Golden’s mill levy is 89.05. If you bought a home in Golden’s newest subdivision, Canyon View, your $500,000 home has an annual tax bill of about $3,550 per year. That’s because the City of Golden or the developer, not a metropolitan district, paid for the infrastructure.

Arvada does it both ways. Candelas is within the City of Arvada, yet the city did not build the infrastructure, nor did the builders. Meanwhile, Westwoods Mesa, a smaller subdivision currently being built by KB Home, has a mill levy of just 101, because no metropolitan district was created. Either the City of Arvada or KB Home must have paid for the infrastructure there. As a result, a home valued by the assessor at $500,000 will incur only $4,000 per year in property taxes.

All about trees, community The Reh-Gossard family of Golden picks out the perfect tree for the Christmas holiday.

In front is Grace Gossard, left, talking with Emilie Reh. Behind the teens are Susanne Reh and Cory Gossard. The group got its first family tree from the Golden Optimists last year, and now it has become a new family tradition, Susanne said.

It’s something they’ve been doing for 30 years — braving the winter weather every evening to sell Christmas trees to the Golden community.

The Golden Optimists started selling the trees shortly after Thanksgiving this year, and it will continue to do so until the trees sell out.

In past years, some people have even come on Christmas Eve to pick one out, Golden Optimist Elmer Dudden said.

So many different trees are available — ranging from a small tabletop noble fir for $25 to a 12-foot balsam fir for $120.

The Golden Optimists get the trees from a wholesale place called Nick’s in Commerce City, Dudden said. But the trees themselves are cultivated on farms in Washington or Oregon — “places where it rains a lot.”

Because most of the trees are unwrapped, Dudden said, “people can see the exact tree they are taking home.”

Goldenites Brett and Heather Russell said buying a tree from the Optimists provides them with a personal experience. This is only the sec-

ond year they have spent Christmas in Golden, and the first time to buy their tree from the Optimists. It’s not like going to a “big box store” and picking one out, Heather said, which is what they did last year.

Plus, Brett said, “It’s local. You’re helping out the community.”

It is a local effort — local Girl Scouts decorate wreaths, which are also available for purchase.

And a local Boy Scout troop helps out on the weekends, selling hot cider and hot chocolate to tree shoppers.

Shopping for a tree with the Golden Optimists has become a family tradition, said Susanne Reh of Golden.

“The Optimists give back to the community,” she said. “We like to support the local folks.”

The Golden Optimists will be selling trees until Dec. 23, or until the trees are sold out. The lot is open from noon to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, and from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. The lot is on the corner of Jackson and 19th streets. For more information, visit www. goldenoptimist.org.

Originally built as Magic Mountain theme park, Heritage Square was designed and crafted in 1958 by Disney and Hollywood artisans, Gardner said. However, the theme park was never fully completed, according to Hagerman, and sat vacant for much of the 1960s. It reopened as a Victorian-themed shopping center called Heritage Square in 1971, and boasted a wedding chapel and, eventually, the music hall. In the late 1970s, the Alpine Slide opened, which operated for 37 seasons.

The Golden Landmarks Association and the Jefferson County Historical Commission strongly support preserving the original Magic Mountain structures, Gardner said. Although it never became a second Disneyland, he said, the history behind Magic Mountain provides Golden with a strong Disney connection.

“These storefronts and event center are among the finest, rarest and most artistic designs Golden will ever see. They, and the other Magic Mountain structures, hold a special place in history,” Gardner said. “The historic structures of Heritage Square are among the historical crown jewels of this region.”

Martin Marietta bought Heritage Square in December 2011.

The company announced its plans to close the square in February.

“To try to put money into preserving something that’s not working doesn’t make sense,” Hagerman said.

Martin Marietta has invested about $1 million on improvements and infrastructure upgrades, he said.

Only two businesses at Heritage Square will remain in operation. The amusement park will open for the 2016 season and has lease options that continue until 2039, which includes the Garden Grill restaurant. Red Rocks Church’s lease continues until March.

The wedding chapel will be relocated to an undetermined site at the owner’s expense.

Martin Marietta understands the public’s desire to preserve the historic buildings, said Pete Bovis, the square’s property manager.

“Everybody has sentimental memories from when they were a kid,” he said, but added the memories from Heritage Square would be from the 1970s and 1980s, rather than Magic Mountain.

Martin Marietta is not interested in selling the property and the company is “looking into various options” for the rebuild, Hagerman said. The plan is to turn it into something for the “Golden of today,” he said. But it may not be until mid-to-late 2016 when the company solidifies its plans. It will not become residential, a “big box retail” destination or a mining area, he said.

The company’s next step is to start working with the City of Golden to obtain proper permits to ready the buildings for demolition.

Although anyone could relocate the storefronts, their removal could cost an estimated $50,000 per building, which would be at the expense of the interested party, Bovis said. The estimate is for removal only, he wrote in an email, and “does not include applicable permits and inspections, transportation, re-erection or any necessary equipment costs associated with this relocation, nor finding a suitable new location.”

Master of Ceremonies and Wheat Ridge 2020 Board Member Kelsey Robb kicks off the dinner program for the group’s 10th annual gala. The evening was punctuated by the big reveal of a new name - Wheat Ridge Localworks - and a new logo, that better reflects the organization’s goals beyond just the next four years. Photo courtesy of Wheat Ridge Localworks

Continued from Page 1

Communications Advisors Team and board vice president, agreed.

“The name Localworks speaks to the heart of what we are,” said DeAguero, “showcasing and supporting the way ‘local’ works in the community.”

“We did not enter this process lightly,” said Janeece Hoppe, a former Board president of Wheat Ridge 2020 and new City Councilor for District 1. “For more than a decade, Wheat Ridge 2020 has been an integral part of the Wheat Ridge culture. Now as the city continues to grow, this evolution is part of the longterm strategic plan.”

VOICES

LOCAL

Battlefield of ideas not for the faint of heart I am working my way through Doris Kearns Goodwin’s Pulitzer Prize-winning “Team of Rivals.” Of course, it’s brilliant.

Abraham Lincoln is my favorite historical figure and, besides being the greatest orator in American history, turns out he was a political genius. It seems he didn’t succeed only because of the brilliant oratory — it also had a lot to do with some pretty adroit political maneuvering.

I thought I knew a lot about Lincoln, but I never realized he had deliberately assembled into his inner circle a group of men as ambitious as he, but whose list of accomplishments were such that none felt the need to defer to another. They were strong, opinionated, contentious and rarely in agreement. As William Seward said after Lincoln’s death, “a Cabinet which should agree at once on every such question would be no better or safer than one counselor.”

I didn’t know that about Lincoln, but it does not surprise me.

Another favorite writer, Aaron Sorkin, the unabashedly liberal creator of “The West Wing” and “A Few Good Men,” wrote in one show: “A smart man once told me that if you’re not a very smart man, surround yourself with smart people; and if you are smart, surround yourself with smart people who disagree with you.”

So Lincoln, being brilliant, simply reached the same conclusion 150 years before Sorkin.

I’ve written before that the state of our civil discourse is disturbing, for myriad reasons. But

I think, of all the characteristics of our current debate, the tendency of both sides of the aisle to insist on complete orthodoxy makes it nearly impossible to find common ground, compromise and, you know, to perform the actual act of governing and living in this society.

Michael Alcorn As I recall, about 12 HITTING years ago, every Lefty was screaming to the rafHOME ters about how George W. Bush had no contrary voices around him as he decided to go to war in Iraq. For the past seven years, every Righty has been shouting until they’re blue in the face that Barack Obama refuses to hear any voices of dissent within his deliberations.

This kind of dangerous orthodoxy shows up in trivial and profound ways. It was an individual with his hands on all the levers of power that ran the Broncos into the ground about seven years ago. Anybody remember Josh McDaniel?

Anybody really think the upper echelons of the Colorado Rockies organization is a re-creation of the Algonquin Round Table? It was an overpowering majority of voices that brooked no dissent that thought it was a good idea to round

up the Japanese and move them to camps in Nebraska, or to run a whole bunch of actors, writers and directors in front of a Senate committee to create a black list of entertainers.

Lively discourse, energetic debate, bold disagreements—this is what makes America great.

As I recall from my history, the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia was a grand experiment in dysfunction. And from it came a document that has shaped the world for more than 225 years and which includes something known as “The Great Compromise.”

We don’t all have to agree, and we don’t have any right to insist on anybody else around us holding the exact same opinions we do. As George Patton said, “If everybody is thinking the same, then somebody is not thinking.”

It is perfectly possible for two people to look at the same set of facts and come to completely different opinions. And from those disagreements, when dealt with maturely, we often arrive at a wisdom that the two sides individually could not have reached. But when dealt with immaturely, we get . . . well, we get Washington, D.C. The battlefield of ideas is loud and sloppy and confusing. And I would suggest that anybody who can’t take a punch should stay away.

It is not for the faint of heart.

Michael Alcorn is a teacher and writer who lives in Arvada with his wife and three children. His novels are available at MichaelJAlcorn.com.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

The holidays are a great time for volunteers to give back to those in need in the community.

We went to the Action Center’s annual Santa Shop at Faith Mountain Church to see why people love volunteering.

“I’ve always liked helping people and seeing the happiness on their faces.

It feels good to help good people.”

-Jackie Peden, Arvada

“It’s just exciting, and is heartwarming to help provide gifts to children.”

-Ginny Green, Lakewood

“It’s always hectic around the holidays, and we’ve been sorting these presents all year long, so it’s great to finally see them go out to the parents for their kids.”

-Sharon Gorman, Westminster

“Seeing the faces of the people. This time of the year, that’s what it’s all about – family.”

-Dee Anthony, Arvada

What is Sustainable Printing?

It’s the paper: Biodegradable, renewable, recycled, reusable.

It’s the ink: Soy based inks are used, reused then recycled.

It’s the plate: Process-free plates eliminate VOC’s and reduce water usage.

It’s the press: Using cold-set presses reduces the amount of VOC’s put into the air.

It’s the location: Printed locally reducing shipping and postage costs, while saving gas, emissions and time.

‘Four Gift Rules’ are not just for kids this holiday A friend of mine recently shared the “Four Gift Rules for Kids at the Holidays.”

They are: 1) One thing they want. 2) One thing they need. 3) One thing to wear. 4) One thing to read.

As a writer, of course, I was cheering.

Ever since I was a little kid hungrily devouring the alphabet, books have been my constant companions. My vocabulary increased exponentially, and my perceptions of the world were formed early on (some of which I’ve adapted along the way).

I continue to read newspapers, novels, nonfiction, poetry, websites, blogs, magazines, and the backs of cereal boxes. I cannot get enough words.

One of the best parts of my love of literature is the delight I’ve seen on the faces of the children in my life when they receive the gift of a book. A photograph of my young nephew on Christmas morning thoughtfully paging through his new copy

of Swiss author Marcus Pfister’s “Rainbow Fish” captures one of my favorite memories.

“Animalia” by Graeme Base is another one of my favorites. Chris Van Allsburg’s “Polar Express” is a lovely choice for the holiAndrea Doray days. Robert Louis Stevenson’s “A Child’s ALCHEMY Garden of Verses” is beloved from my own childhood, inscribed by our mother to my sister and me. And the bookshelves of older children should definitely contain Shel Silverstein. I recommend “Where the Sidewalk Ends” and “Falling Up,” which I also enjoy as an adult.

I do have one quarrel with the Four

Gift Rules, though, which is that these rules should apply to all of us, not just to kids. Everyone on your list should receive a book – at least one. And, in my particular case, a book – “something to read” – also fulfills the “something I want” and the “something I need” rules. (Something warm for the “something to wear” please.)

Additionally, gifts of books can include loans, library selections, or recommendations. I currently have a few books loaned to me by friends and family, who urge me to enjoy them: “Wild Tales,” Graham Nash’s autobiography. “Women of the Beat Generation” by Ann Charters and Brenda Knight. “Sharp Objects” by Gillian Flynn, who also authored “Gone Girl.”

Such thoughtful generosity warms my heart … it’s as though they are sharing their favorite toys. I’ve also borrowed back some books I’ve given to others, such as “The Historian” by Elizabeth Kostova, which belongs to my sister. My family is

of Romanian heritage and this thriller immerses me in a fictional world of my roots.

Importantly, at this time of year, the gift of literature is one of the most valuable gifts collected in toy drives. We all want children to play and to be happy, and the holidays are no exception. And although an action figure, a plush toy, or sports equipment do fit the bill for fun and happy, a book is a treasure for a lifetime, to be enjoyed over and over again, no matter what their ages.

My wish for all of you during this holiday season is for what you want and what you need. And, of course, I wish you the gift of something to read.

Children love photos that share past Many basements and attics have photographs, loads of snapshots going back several generations. They sit in boxes or layered in photo albums divided between family members. Photos are a record of how families looked and lived. They are a history waiting to be shared among new generations of young children who are fascinated when someone says, “Look, you have the same eyes and smile!”

Get photos out for a look Winter is a good time to bring those pictures into the sunlight and place them where young children can see them whether they are organized or not. After all, there is always next year.

Plan a short sharing time. Look for pictures that may be interesting to them. Is there a picture of Mom covered with mud

in the sandbox? Young children can relate to LIFELONG this. Are there photos off a string of LEARNING showing fish, helping to dress a deer, or sledding down a hill where there are houses now?

There are probably yearly school, holiday, birthday and religious celebration photos with entertaining stories attached.

This is a good time to let young children know that parents and grandparents have had all kinds of experiences happen to them, too. There have been happy, proud, sad and scary times.

Are there pictures of family members or loving pets that have died? Did you know that Fluffy is buried among the raspberry bushes? Talking through an event and visiting the resting place may help young

Esther Macalady

Little gestures can make big impression So a buddy of mine recently visited Cuba. His sister had asked him to pick up a commemorative thimble as a souvenir for her friend. On the last day, while riding on a bus, he realized he had forgotten to buy the thimble and said something out loud about it to his traveling companions.

Another passenger on the bus mentioned that she also needed to buy a thimble for someone, but she too had forgotten.

That afternoon my friend Frank went and purchased two commemorative thimbles. And that evening he approached the woman whom he had overheard saying she also forgot to buy one and he handed her one of the thimbles.

She offered to pay Frank for the souvenir, but he told her that it was OK, it was his gift to her and not to worry about it.

As the night went on my buddy Frank and the woman he had met continued a conversation and as it turned out, the woman was connected to some people in the entertainment business and invited my friend to attend a backstage event the next time his favorite musician was coming to town. No romance, no expectations on either side, just a simple and small gesture that turned strangers into friends.

All because of a tiny thimble.

Can you remember a time where someone did something for you that seemed so small or so simple but where you were so appreciative? Maybe it was a random act of kindness, or perhaps someone left you a note or a card just to let you know they were thinking about you.

Our gifts, donations, and time spent volunteering don’t always have to be huge or grandiose. In fact, most times when I hear about someone sharing their gratitude or appreciation about a gift, message, or gesture, it is usually around something simple or small. And the best part about most of those stories is that the person giving or helping in some

way chose to be anonymous or just humbly stood on the sidelines.

Is there a small gesture that left you feeling wonderful? Has someone done something in some small way to help you out at a time you needed it Michael Norton most? I can guess that the answer to WINNING both questions for WORDS all of us is yes. Now the next question we have to ask ourselves is this, “When was the last time we offered a simple or small gesture that made a difference in someone’s life?” If we can’t remember a time or it has been so long ago that we struggle to remember, maybe it’s time we look around us and see where we can help or who we can assist.

Can we open a car door, can we give up a seat, can we leave a note for someone we love and appreciate, can we donate time, money, or other resources, can we make a meal for a neighbor, can we offer someone a much-needed ear to listen, or can we offer a smile or a hug to someone feeling down?

How about you, have you been the recipient of a simple gesture that meant so much, or have you been the giver of a small gesture that was so appreciated? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we remember that a small gesture, even the size of a tiny thimble, can make a difference, it really will be a better than good week.

children who have lost someone or a pet.

Go back as far as you can into the pictures of your family history. If another family member has one you are missing, put that on your list to ask for copies of the missing pictures so you have a complete set.

When showing a picture of greatgrandpa, talk about his cutting down trees for heat, raising Belgian draft horses, or going down into the mines.

If you see an old piece of technology like a dial phone or phonograph, talk about them. What? There were no online videos, cell phones or TVs? What is a typewriter?

Discussions like these could lead to a family outing at the local museum, library or another trip to the attic or basement.

Kahoot.it If there is a teen in the house, introduce them to kahoot.it. It is an application to make your own family quizzes when everyone has a cell phone or other device.

Teens can work with grandparents to make a quiz about family pictures and involve all the generations at family gatherings. How much do members know about family pictures and their history? The application is free, fun, educational and easy to use. Children may have already used it in their classrooms.

Picture this: memories preserved Local photographers talk about importance of family portraits

By Christy Steadman csteadman@colorado communitymedia.com Holiday greeting cards, milestones such as an anniversary, a newborn baby or the entire extended family getting together for a reunion.

There are dozens of reasons to get the family together to say cheese. And according to local photographers, it’s important to document a family, and how it grows and changes through the years.

“Photographs capture the memories forever,” professional photographer Cheryl Haines said. “I believe it’s really important. Families are the most important things in our lives.”

Some families may be discouraged from getting a family portrait because people feel they don’t have the time, or they may think it’s too stressful or overwhelming to bring everyone together for the photo, said Beth Wedlake, a professional photographer who serves the greater metro Denver area.

“Don’t let that hold you back,” she said.

Often, a professional photographer is willing to guide the family through the experience by offering tips and letting everyone know what to expect, Wedlake said.

It can actually be a fun experience, Haines said, who offers her families a 1 1/2-acre space to use for an outdoor photo shoot.

And the benefits of having a quality family photo are well worth it, Wedlake said.

“As families grow, and kids get older, parents want to preserve the memories,” said Jeff Warner, a professional photographer who serves the Front Range. “Before you know

it, they’re out of the house.”

The annual school photos of children just can’t capture everything, Warner said. For example, his 16-year-old son recently outgrew him in height by a few inches. That wouldn’t have been documented if they hadn’t been standing next to each other in family portraits through the years, he said.

Sometimes, families will do themes — Denver Broncos gear is a popular one, and a couple years ago, Wedlake had a family who all wore fake mustaches. But most often, families want lifestyle photos, Wedlake said.

Lifestyle photos are not posed, she said, and families aren’t wearing matching outfits.

“They’re just families being themselves and laughing together,” Wedlake said. “They hold a lot more appeal to the modern family.”

Warner agreed. Families tend to like having their picture taken in their home, or in settings such as along Clear Creek or at Red Rocks, he said.

“I like to see that natural interaction among the family members,” Warner said. “The goal is to take a photograph that captures the family perfectly.”

Some people want family photos to send to extended family and friends. Some want digital images to share on social media and others want pictures to frame and hang on the wall, Haines said. No matter a family’s reason, Haines encourages every family to get good, quality prints.

It’s all about preserving memories, she said. When a loved one passes, going through files of photos stored on a computer is not the same as sorting through that person’s old photo albums.

A family portrait “is a very sentimental purchase,” Wedlake said.

“Photos can take you back to a place in time. I don’t think anything else can do that like a photo.”

The Blaha-Warden family takes a photo in December 2006 at Clear Creek History Park in Golden. “Our daughter was 13 at the time, and she’s 22 now, so it might be time to take another family Christmas picture,” said Barb Warden, webmaster of www.golden.com.

Sleeper House is dreamy site for tree art Colorado Homes magazine has captured the Christmas season with a feature story about an original Christmas tree art installation at the iconic Sleeper House in Genesee.

The magazine article says, “If you’ve ever driven up I-70 from Denver to the mountains, you’ve seen the Sleeper House, more formally known as The Sculptured House — that spaceship-esque residence built almost as if an extension of Genesee Mountain.

The distinctively elliptical home was crafted by architect Charles Deaton in 1963 and went on to be featured prominently in the 1973 Penny Parker Woody Allen sci-fi comedy, ‘Sleeper.’

MILE HIGH “Well, Matthew LIFE Bliss, creator of The Modern Christmas Tree, has stepped inside the Sleeper House for a noble cause.

A portion of every sale of his lightweightacrylic, A-frame Christmas trees goes to the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America — a cause close to home. Bliss created The Modern Christmas Tree Company in tribute to his late grandfather, Lawrence “Bud” Stoecker, who was an architect and engineer before battling Alzheimer’s later in life.”

“When I was a kid, our family would drive up I-70 on our way to go skiing,” Bliss said. “Every time we approached Genesee, we would look for what we called the Spaceship House. It’s a mysterious, iconic house to anyone who grew up in Colorado. My grandpa must have driven by it hundreds of times while making A-frame cabins all over the Rocky Mountains, so to be able to photograph his trees in such an important home was a dream come true.”

Each tree includes an LED light, rotating

and dropping off other bell ringers in his area. The pay isn’t much — about $9 an hour, he says — but the work is about much more than the money.

There’s the challenge — to persuade everyone who walks by to give, whether it’s a quarter or $20 or $150.

He makes it a point to greet people twice, once as they walk in the store, once as they walk out.

His friendly demeanor, ever-present grin and happy spirit make it difficult not to acknowledge him.

“I didn’t forget you,” says a woman on her way out, pulling money from her purse.

“Thank you so much,” Gray says with a smile. “We appreciate your donation. Have a blessed day.”

His smile widens: “I planted the

Say cheese to Sunnyside shop Cheese+Provisions, Denver’s newest destination for artisan cut-to-order cheeses, salumi and gourmet grocery goods, opened Dec. 15. Located in the burgeoning Sunnyside neighborhood at 2432 W. 44th Ave., Cheese+Provisions will offer unlimited tastings of a wide selection of both New and Old World cheeses; grab-and-go sandwiches; in-store cheese boards with wine, beer or champagne pairings; a curated collection of gourmet grocery goods; catering platters; and a Cheese of the Month Club, complete with tasting notes and an everrotating offering of hand-selected cheeses.

Cheese+Provisions is owned by husband-and-wife duo, Steve and Kim Duty.

Steve is a Culinary Institute of Americatrained chef and award-winning winemaker, cheesemaker and brewer, who believes every cheese has a story to tell, from farm to table.

Cheese+Provisions is open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday.

Closing the doors Tom’s Home Cookin’, Denver’s homage to soul food and Southern cuisine, closed Dec. 3 after more than 16 years in business.

The decision by owners Steve Jankousky and Tom Unterwagner to close the iconic Five Points lunch-only eatery was a real estate move, according to Internet reports. The building has been sold to an undisclosed chef who will continue the space as a restaurant.

This note appeared on the building and on Twitter Dec. 3: “Dear Friends, We are excited to tell you that we have sold the restaurant property and Tom’s Home Cookin’ is closed. Thank you for your pa-

seed when they came in. I watered it and it grew.”

There are the stories — about one in 30 people, he estimates, has a story to tell about how the Salvation Army made a difference in their lives.

“This older guy,” Gray says, “his wife tells him to put money in the kettle any time he walks by one,” because the Salvation Army helped him when he was young and poor.

“The pregnant lady,” he remembers. “She was pregnant and didn’t have any money and they bought her a car.”

Vietnam vets tell him how the Salvation Army gave them long johns.

On this afternoon, Diana Johnson, 84, stops her shopping cart to look through her purse, then places money into the kettle.

“My husband is a World War II vet,” she says. “He said they were the best at taking care of the GIs.” Right behind her is Tanya

tronage, support and friendship over the past 16½ years. It’s been one hell of a ride!

Tom & Steve” Fuel Cafe, the restaurant that helped bring attention to the Taxi residential-commercial project on Brighton Boulevard, has closed after an eight-year run, according to a story posted on Eater Denver (www. denver.eater.com/2015/12/7/9859968/ fuel-cafe-closed-rino-taxi-refuel).

Owner Bob Blair also reportedly closed Refuel, the three-year-old sandwich shop also in the Taxi development. According to Eater, “... Chef Blair expressed the need for a more balanced lifestyle and decided that it was time to move on.”

Blair’s timing is curious since restaurants that intend to close in December typically limp along until New Year’s Eve in order to reap the financial rewards of that celebration.

Tony winner bound for Lone Tree For more than 30 years, two-time Tony Award-winning actress Christine Ebersole has captivated audiences on the Broadway stage, television series and specials, films, concert appearances, and recordings. Ebersole will perform at the Lone Tree Arts Center at 7:30 p.m. Jan. 21.

Tickets range from $33-$57 and may be purchased online at www.lonetreeartscenter.org or by calling 720-509-1000 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Lone Tree Arts Center is located at 10075 Commons St. Ebersole won the 2007 Tony for outstanding actresses Edie Beale in the acclaimed “Grey Gardens.” Ebersole also earned a Tony for her portrayal of Dorothy Brock in the revival of “42nd Street.”

“My grandfather was on the front lines in World War I,” she says. “He said the Salvation Army was the only one who helped the infantrymen on the front lines. He said, `When you give, you give to the Salvation Army . . . ‘ My grandpa’s been dead for a long time, but his words stuck with me.”

Here’s what Livability said about the first-time list: “While macro brewers are struggling, craft brewers are posting double-digit increases in sales and production nationwide, according to the Brewers Association. Mayors across the nation are quick to proclaim themselves ‘beer cities.’ Residents love it, and so do tourists — so much that there’s a newish form of tourism centered around the beer itself.

“Economic development, tourism, talent attraction — these are all great side effects of the craft beer movement in the U.S.,” says Livability.com editor Matt Carmichael. “But at the end of the day, this is a ranking of great beers in great cities, and it sure is nice to have a cold pint of one of these 99 brews.”

son Merry Christmas,” he says. “I might be the only one who asks `How are you?’ or says `Have a good day’ . . . It’s a really small thing, but it could go a long way with a certain person.”

And sometimes, the small thing happens to Gray.

“Seems like I see you here every day,” says John Beall, 72, as he walks toward Gray. “Can I get you something to drink at Starbucks?”

Gray smiles. “I’ll take a small Chai.”

When Beall returns, he shakes Gray’s hand. “Thank you,” he says.

Gray’s smile spreads wider.

One day, he hopes, his kettle will be the lucky recipient of an unexpectedly generous donation.

Like one of the gold coins worth thousands of dollars that have sporadically appeared in kettles across the country.

“I’ve been hoping for that this

year,” Gray says.

Or like the $500,000 check an anonymous donor dropped in a kettle in Minnesota in late November.

“That’s got to be a world record,” he says.

But, until then, he’ll settle happily for the $150 check someone slipped into the kettle the day before. And, actually, any donation will do just fine.

His face glows: “I just got $20 in there.”

Nathan Gray flips the red bell back and forth. The tinkling drifts across the parking lot.

Staff Report The holiday season is a joyous time but unfortunately, it presents many opportunities for home fires to occur.

The Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control urges Colorado families to remember the importance of fire safety and prevention.

Christmas trees are involved in approximately 400 fires annually, according to the National Fire Protection Association, typically resulting in more than 12 deaths, dozens of injuries and more than $10 million in property loss and damage. Shortcircuiting tree lights are cited as the leading cause.

“A beautifully decorated live Christmas tree is a holiday tradition for many households across this country,” said DFPC Director Paul Cooke. “However, these trees pose serious danger when allowed to become dry.”

Human error and carelessness

Aurora

cause most fires and related deaths and injuries. The United States Fire Administration reports that candles cause more than 17,000 home fires, resulting in about 180 deaths and 1,575 injuries each year. The top four days for home candle fires are Christmas, Christmas Eve, New Year’s Day, and New Year’s Eve. By following these simple, but often overlooked, safety tips you will be well on your way to a safe and happy holiday season.

Holiday Fire Safety Tips Trees When purchasing an artificial tree, look for a “Fire Resistant” label.

When purchasing a live tree, check for freshness. Make sure the needles are soft and are not falling off. Hard, brittle needles are signs of a dry tree, which can easily catch fire.

Do not block your exit door with your tree.

Remove live trees from your home

Frisco

as soon as possible. Most Christmas tree fires occur on or after New Year’s Day. Always keep the base of a tree in water. All Christmas trees will dry over time with or without water. Take down the tree before it dries completely.

Candles Never use lit candles to decorate a tree. Always extinguish candles before leaving the room or going to bed.

Place Christmas trees, candles, and other holiday decorations at least three feet away from heat sources like fireplaces, portable heaters, radiators, heat vents and candles.

Designate one person to walk around your home to make sure that all candles and smoking materials are properly extinguished after guests leave.

Install a smoke alarm near your kitchen, on each level of your home, near sleeping areas, and inside and outside bedrooms if you sleep with doors closed.

The Evergreen High School Cougars have been honored with this year’s Blue Ribbon Award by the U.S. Department of Education. The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program recognizes public and private schools based on their overall academic excellence and progress in closing achievement gaps among student subgroups.

Having received Blue Ribbon recognition in 2007, the school is proud to add this award once again to their wall of honor. Evergreen is also an eleventime John J. Irwin School of Excellence recipient and one of Newsweek’s top 500 high schools.

“Today, we are designating your school and 331 other schools across the country as National Blue Ribbon Schools,” announced U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan. “[These schools are] leading their students to the highest levels of achievement or making outstanding progress in closing achievement gaps.”

Principal Ryan Alsup proudly announced to an assembly of students, parents, and staff that Evergreen is the only public high school in Colorado to receive this award.

“This is the highest academic award that a school can receive… This is not something you win just off of one year,” he said.

Students Perform Well on Academic Assessments

Evergreen High Principal Ryan Alsup stands near the school’s Legacy Wall Of Honors which celebrates student academic successes.

Alsup attributes Evergreen’s success to its hard working community and to the outstanding elementary and middle school feeder program that prepares students for the high school curriculum.

“That goes for – obviously – our neighborhood schools as well as our charter schools and even the Montessori private school,” he said. “They do a fantastic job educating our students.

The other thing is our parents – the community is fantastic. They bend over

backwards to make sure that our kids are successful and we could not do that without them.”

Duncan closed his congratulatory address by calling Evergreen High School to action.

“Please, share what you know. Your schools are amazing examples for your communities, your states, and the entire nation,” he said.

The Board of Education received promising news regarding test scores at the October 15 and October 29 Board meetings. A release of this year’s first Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) scores indicates that math and reading achievement for students in Jeffco exceeds MAP national norms.

MAP is the newest district assessment to measure student learning in reading and mathematics.

“This is good news for our district.

These positive results are a testament to the hard work of both our students and teachers. I look forward to seeing our growth performance in the future,” said Superintendent Dan McMinimee.

Congratulations, Cougars!

Student Voice: Inspiring Bright Leaders for Bright Futures Student Voice is a districtwide initiative that brings together high school students from across Jeffco, and gives them the opportunity to meet and collaborate with district and school leaders. It allows students to express what’s on their minds, as well as the chance to gain leadership, advocacy, and teamwork skills. Students can then take what they learn back to their schools to help build leadership among their fellow students.

“It’s an opportunity to really express yourself in a way that represents your schools,” explained Jason Firestone, Manager of the Office of Student Engagement.

“Going out and being that spokesperson is part of being in a community and being a leader in a community. That builds [leadership] capacity not just here in Jeffco, but for a student’s future.”

The program began several years ago when Dr. Irene Griego, the former director of the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, saw the need for diverse students to have the opportunity to share their thoughts and opinions.

Student Voice is meant to provide a platform for students to communicate what they feel is going both well and badly in their schools to district and school leadership, especially the superintendent, in order to create positive changes.

“It creates an opportunity for me to facilitate leadership opportunities for the youth that I work with,” said Jeffco Open School Community Resource Liaison Dylan Scholinski. “It becomes very important for me to find opportunities for them to find their own voice and find a

School senior Meghan Thomas. “Something I’m definitely learning being part of this is being a leader and how I can apply that to the outside world besides just school.”

Over 100 students each year come together through Student Voice to represent

Empowering students with the chance to express their thoughts to district and school leaders has helped create a confidence in students who might tend to stay quiet, and in the background.

“Before I started Student Voice, I was pretty shy and I didn’t really like talking to people,” said Jeffco Open

their fellow students and talk about what they believe are important issues for students and for their schools.

“Student Voice is really about promoting diversity throughout our school. As ambassadors, we represent people at our school who don’t feel as if they’re heard.

Jeffco has all walks of life … we represent all those different

types of people,” said Arvada West High School senior Nana Danso. “We’re able to go to our administration in the district and let them know what our classmates want … and make our school a better place.”

It has become a forum where students feel comfortable sharing their ideas and feelings, but also where they know they are being heard, even by top leadership in the district.

“They’ve had the opportunity to meet with our superintendent, and have his voice in the room. I think that speaks a lot to the value that our district is placing on giving students that are sometimes marginalized a place to shine,” said Wheat Ridge High School Student Voice advisor Lisa Lee. “The fact that he listened and had a response made them feel valued. That was really amazing.”

Student Voice meets four times per year, and individual schools often hold their own meetings with their ambassadors throughout the year, as well. All high school students are welcome, and any interested students should contact their school administration or their Student Voice advisor.

“We know our students aren’t just the future,” said Diversity Specialist Hilario Benzon. “They are the now and we want them to really be able to affect change.”

The charts on page 2 provide comparisons between MAP national norms (namely, national quintile distributions) and Jeffco’s Fall 2015 reading and mathematics performance. Overall, Jeffco’s MAP baseline data show a larger percentage of students performing in the High, High Average and Average combined ranges compared to the national MAP sample, and a smaller percentage of students performing in the combined Low and Low Average ranges.

The Board also revisited acuity scores from the previous year. The presentation represented score changes in terms of effect size.

NAAC Named Field of The Year

So You Want To Be a School Bus Driver?

Jeffco North Area Athletic Complex Stadium Manager Sun Roesslein works the paint machine near one of the football endzones in preparation for a doubleheader game.

It was Friday night under the lights at the NAAC, and the feeling was electric. The NAAC is Jeffco’s North Area Athletic Complex and one of four Jeffco Public Schools’ stadiums. It is also the Sports Turf Managers Association “Field Of The Year”.

Throughout the year, this place hosts dozens of high school athletic contests and competitions, with soccer and football as the mainstays.

Before the players can start to work their magic, the NAAC’s stadium team has to work theirs.

“There’s a lot that goes into it. We’re responsible for everything inside the fence,” explained Sun Roesslein, one of two NAAC stadium managers.

Roesslein tooled around in a work cart to prep for the day’s schedule.

“I absolutely have the best office in the world, hands down. I just fell in love with the work, being outside, working with my hands, being able to fix things, and creating something that is a beautiful work of art,” she said.

Her counterpart, Christy Clay, was helping to put down string lines so the football field can get freshly marked. It takes an entire day to get the field ready just for football.

“We have two football games tomorrow night, so we mowed and striped up the field this morning. Now we’re putting a fresh coat of paint out, which we do every week,” explained Roesslein. “We paint it once a week, no matter how many games we have. Our paint is high quality, so it lasts through the game. We’re getting it nice and ready to go for the games tomorrow night.”

Clay and Roesslein aim for perfection and use Sport’s

Authority Field at Mile High, where the Broncos play, as their inspiration.

“I’d love it to look like the Broncos stadium every day.

Their field is amazing. All the professional fields at the college level, and high school level as well, are fantastic. I just try to keep those high-quality, high-end facilities in mind,” said Roesslein.

To keep the NAAC at that caliber takes a lot of long days at work for the two stadium managers.

“For soccer, it’s pretty much the same thing. You can see all the acreage behind us. We’re just non-stop all day, every day. It’s like you run out of time every day. There’s always more to do,” explained Clay.

That hard work has paid off with national recognition.

The Sports Turf Managers Association recently named the NAAC’s soccer facility “Field Of The Year”.

“We’re very, very proud of that award. It means a lot of all of our crew,” said Clay.

Roesslein echoed that sentiment.

“To be selected amongst all the applicants in the nation is definitely a huge honor. I think it goes to show how hard we work, how much we love what we do and how well supported we are,” she said.

The awards and compliments are nice, but they usually don’t have a lot of time to dwell on them. Before you know it, it’s game time. Clay and Roesslein go from turf managers to event managers with additional responsibilities.

“We are responsible for overseeing the gates, the ticket sellers, and ticket takers. All the stadium game staff. We help the administrators with crowd management. We help

Robin Sandoval admitted to being nervous as she sat in the hot seat at the Jeffco Public Schools bus training facility in Lakewood. She was at the wheel of Jeffco School Bus #617 while being evaluated as part of her journey towards becoming a fully-certified Jeffco bus driver, responsible for getting 77 young lives safely to class and back every school day.

As part of this testing, Sandoval had to prove herself to Jeffco Trainer Technician Valerie Pelc, which included demonstrating full knowledge of an exhaustive pre-trip checklist that must be done every time she takes out any of the district’s buses.

“There’s probably close to 160 items that a bus driver has to identify every day,” explained Pelc.

Sandoval had to verbalize, point to, touch, and tell Pelc how she knew everything was in good, safe working order.

Once on the job, bus drivers are able to complete the checklist in about 15 minutes quietly on their own.

Aspiring bus drivers also must have several days of classroom instruction, which covers everything from bus danger

the officials with the things that they need to be doing, make sure that they’re protected and in a safe place,” explained Roesslein.

On those nights when they can see the end result of all their hard work really come together. That’s what really keeps them focused on making the NAAC look its best week in, and week out across the year.

“First of all, I want it to be safe for the players. Secondly, I hope when they walk in, you normally see some excitement from them; it’s a great field facility for them to play at,” said Clay. “Just to see that excitement when they first walk into the stadium; it’s like wow! Walking into the Broncos stadium first time for some of them I would imagine. It’s a great facility to be a part of; just to see the kids’ happiness, it’s good to see that on their face.”

Jeffco Transportation Trainer Technician Valerie Pelc carefully watches a new bus driver trainee go through a pre-trip checklist aboard bus #617. zones, to wheelchair tie downs, to how to count students on, off, and away.

“The first day that we’re in class, we always tell the students that they’re going to be overwhelmed, and they are. I just love to come see them after they’ve done training, a couple months down the road and I say, ‘See it wasn’t so bad!’” said Pelc.

“They have a great big smile on their face. There’s something about it that makes you feel good inside that you’re able to take someone and teach them to be so responsible for our precious cargo.”

Being responsible with that precious cargo is particularly important to Sandoval, who has two young daughters.

“It’s a lot of responsibility.

I love kids, and overall, it just matters; the safety of the kids and [ensuring] they’re safe at all times,” she said.

Sandoval’s road to Jeffco bus driver trainee came after

working as an office manager for a biohazard medical waste company and a stint as a pizza delivery driver. Her reason for getting behind the wheel? She was inspired by her dad.

“He was a CDL truck driver and I’m following in his footsteps.

It’s very extensive training, but it gets easier every day. It’s a lot of work, but it’s going to pay off in the end,” she said.

For trainer Pelc, the payoff is giving parents the confidence in knowing that when their children step on a Jeffco Public Schools bus, they will go to school safe, and come home safe.

“I want parents to know that your kids are in the greatest of hands. Our bus drivers love children, or else they wouldn’t be doing this,” said Pelc. “Bus drivers do it for the love of the children. Believe me, when I say your kids are safe, they are definitely safe.”

Assessments continued from page 1 scores for grades three through six showed medium to high effect size changes in math. Overall, sixth and seventh grade results for reading demonstrated medium effect sizes, indicating academic progress across the year. Similarly, results of students in third through fifth grade, and in eighth grade, demonstrated large effect sizes. The effect sizes presented indicate progress within the 2014-15 school year.

The Story of Gator Jack and Amber Standley Lake High School student Jack Knight is a familiar sight to any fan of Gator football. Jack plays the mellophone in his school’s marching band, and right by his electric wheelchair at every game is his service dog, Amber.

“Jack has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, which is the most lethal and progressive of the Muscular Dystrophies,” said his mother, Angela Knight. “He’s just transferred into a wheelchair. [He] stopped walking about a year and a half ago.”

With Amber at his side, Jack navigates the complex patterns of each marching band routine, equipped with a metal support stand that holds his mellophone.

“It’s pretty easy,” said Jack. “I got this piece on my chair that hooks up to this pole and two poles here, and it just holds my instrument. My dad made it for me.”

Jack’s mother trains service dog Amber to learn the routines with the rest of the students. With a combined weight of

about 500 pounds, the wheelchair must maneuver safely through and around the formations to ensure the routines run smoothly.

Jack and his family constantly adjust to his condition to make sure he lives the life of any active Jeffco teen.

“We’ve taught him to just find a different way to do things…he plays in the band, he snow skis, water skis, kayaks, paddle board[s], rock climbs, and we just do it a different way. He’s a typical Colorado kid. We just adapt life for him,” said Jack’s mother.

Standley Lake High School Principal Jeff Pierson says the marching band was only recently reintegrated into the school spirit program. Jack, like others in the band, has found his passion through its revival.

“I get excitement and some adrenaline out of it because it’s just fun,” said Jack.

Jack began his musical career in sixth grade at Semper Elementary and in the

He said he’s found a sense of community in the marching band, and members work with him so he can be included in all of the routines.

“What he’s doing for our school is changing, or at least increasing, the atmosphere of acceptance for everybody,” said Principal Pierson. “And the fact that he’s out there working every day in the marching band and doing so with the pride and spirit we’ve brought back…

Jef Fugita, Achievement Director for Standley Lake High School, is also a big fan of Jack’s talent and dedication.

“Jack makes me really proud that we can make sure that all kids have an opportunity to participate in all activities.

I’m so very proud of Standley Lake and the Standley Lake marching band,” said Fugita.

“This is his passion,” said Jack’s mom.

“He’s found his community and he’s found his home. I love that.”

Being bilingual is everything is relative,” said Duncan.

Each year, the Colorado Association for Bilingual Education (CABE) sponsors a writing competition titled “Proud to Be Bilingual”, to celebrate the work of bilingual learners in dual language education programs across Colorado. Of the competition’s seven statewide award winners, four are Jeffco Public Schools students.

This year, the “Proud to Be Bilingual” essay contest received over 150 submissions from 50 schools across Colorado. The writing submissions elaborated on personal experiences, which highlighted the value of learning multiple languages.

Stein Elementary fifth-grader Natalia Zavaleta received first place honors in the Elementary Division. Her essay focused on how speaking Spanish has allowed her to develop deeper relationships with her family.

“Sadly, some of my cousins did not learn Spanish when they were little, so it’s a little bit harder for them to communicate with my grandparents than it is for us,” she wrote. “I am thankful to have learned Spanish because I have a special connection with all of my grandparents.”

The essays were evaluated by a panel of judges from CABE. Each submission was scored based on thematic development, originality, content and clarity of expression, and grammar and mechanics.

“The student essays highlight the value of bilingualism and biliteracy, and we are so proud of our students’ ability to showcase the positive impact of bilingualism on their lives and those around them,” said Jeffco Dual Language Director Catherine Baldwin. “Jeffco Public Schools has offered dual language education programs for over 20 years, and our student winners are a great example of why we want to continue

Fernanda Balderrama, also a fifthgrader at Stein Elementary, placed second in the Elementary Division. Evan Davidson, who is a student at Foster Elementary, received third place honors.

Alma Hernández Ánima, who is a seventh grade student at Jefferson Junior/Senior High School, placed second in the competition’s Middle School Division.

The contest winners were recognized at a CABE ceremony in September, which students’ families and Jeffco Public Schools staff also attended. Each student received an award certificate and acknowledgement for their exceptional accomplishments in celebrating bilingualism.

Candelas Site Set for New Jeffco School

Update On the Jefferson and Alameda Plans

In September, the Board of Education unanimously voted to build a new school at the Candelas site in Arvada.

The site is a 25-acre parcel of land on Colorado Highway 72 between West 94th Avenue and El Diente Court. The new school is projected to seat 625 students and will serve students from kindergarten through sixth grade.

“As we look to the future and what Jeffco Schools will look like in 2020 and beyond, we envision this school will incorporate state-of-the-art facilities and safety features to ensure that we provide an optimal environment for learning,” said Superintendent Dan McMinimee. “This is just the start of Jeffco Schools’ facilities plans to accommodate growth in our northwest area.”

The growth of the Jeffco Public Schools’ facilities needs has increased dramatically over the past 24 to 36 months, which compressed the original 15year facilities plan to a five- to seven-year plan. According to a presentation given to the school board at the August 27, 2015 board meeting, the district is projecting a potential shortfall of student seats due to increasing residential developments that are attracting families in the northwest corner of the county.

The projected cost of the new 625-student school will be $18 million, and will be complete within approximately 24 months. This new school will alleviate overcrowding at Meiklejohn Elementary, West Woods Elementary, and Van Arsdale Elementary.

Of the $18 million package, the building costs are estimated to be $10.45 million ($170 per square foot) with site development costs at just over $3.1 million, and other soft development costs, such as architecture and engineering fees, surveying, testing, and inflation costing approximately $4.3 million. The funds allocated for building costs are existing dollars, no loans are required to fund the project.

Other future urgent needs in this fast growing region include a 250-seat Phase II project at Sierra Elementary School, a Table Rock Mesa PK-8 school, a K-6 school at Leyden Rock, and an expansion at Ralston Valley High School. To address these future needs, the Board unanimously directed district staff to begin the process of putting together a bond package for November of 2016.

The new school at the Candelas site is projected to open in the fall of 2017.

Last school year, the Board of Education unanimously approved major changes suggested by district staff in the Jefferson and Alameda areas focused on solutions for building capacity issues and increasing student achievement. The plans included creating two seventh through twelfth grade junior/senior high schools, and moving campuses to meet capacity demands.

The work began this fall.

At the October 1 Board meeting, principals and district staff provided an update, and the plans are working. The integration of middle school students at both Alameda International Junior/ Senior High School and Jefferson Junior/Senior High School is going well. The middle school students have brought new energy to both campuses, and the older students have taken on mentorship roles with the younger students.

Parents also have embraced the changes.

Alameda International’s School Accountability Committee and PTA are eager and excited to be involved in the changes. They have also developed and strengthened partnerships with

www.jeffcopublicschools.org

other organizations in the community, such as the Boys and Girls Clubs.

All schools in the Jefferson Articulation Area are working as a single unit to continue to engage parents and the community to participate in Jefferson area schools. They also have created a strong partnership with Jefferson Success Pathways to provide outreach and resources to area families.

Teachers are excited and more committed than ever to their work toward improving student achievement. Jefferson area teachers have been participating in professional learning and development work, which they are taking back to the classroom.

The facilities and transportation departments also deserve a great deal of thanks for their work to prepare the buildings over the summer and reorganize busing for students.

There is sure to be more good news from the Jefferson and Alameda areas as teachers, students, parents, and district staff continue this great work.

Area coaches get Hall of Fame nod

Demons takes silver trophy Cheyenne East edged Golden for girls hoop tournament title

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Golden brought home a trophy, but not the one they wanted as Cheyenne East won the Dec. 12 Littleton’s Mane Event girls basketball tournament by edging the Demons 67-61 in overtime in the championship game.

“It sucks to lose this game. We played well and had a lead, but that is a very good team and they got very hot shooting three-pointers in overtime to win it,” Golden coach Shea Scarlett said after the game. “We don’t like the loss, but we will watch films and learn from this game.”

Key moments: Golden got off to a good start and led 19-10 at the end of the first period.

Cheyenne East came back, but the Demons led 24-20 going into the second half. It then became a see-saw contest with the lead changing hands with almost every possession. For example, the score was tied 36-36 until the Thunderbirds hit a three pointer at the buzzer to take a 39-36 lead into the final period.

The score was tied at 52-52 at the end of the fourth quarter to send the game into overtime.

Cheyenne East hit three successive three-pointers and went on to win the game, 67-61.

“Cheyenne East has tall girls inside plus some excellent outside shooters,” coach Scarlett said.

Butler runs 23rd at Nationals Ben Butler, the two-time Class 3A state champion from SkyView Academy, finished 23rd in the Nike National Cross-County Championships held Dec. 5 in Portland, Oregon. He was timed in 15:31.70.

Wheat Ridge boys hoops team off to good start Young team plans to stay strong, work hard

By Scott Stocker Special to Colorado Community Media The Farmers, with their 75-34 victory on Dec. 7 over Alameda, wrapped up a 3-0 start in the season’s early days. The hope now is that Wheat Ridge, which has only four seniors in the lineup, can keep it going.

The Farmers opened the season with a 58-43 victory against Erie, followed by a 71-63 win over Gateway. The start has registered well with the players and coach Tommy Dowd.

“Three wins has us off to a good start and we just want to keep strong on our efforts,” said 5-foot-9 senior guard Nico Young. “We don’t have the size like we have had in the past, but we’re cer-

Ponderosa athletic director and former coach Tim Ottmann, ex-Mustangs and Highlands Ranch coach Kent Smith, and Arapahoe graduate Peter Horvath are among the six people who will be inducted into Jim Benton the Colorado High School Coaches OVERTIME Association Hall of Fame.

The induction ceremony for the 2016 Hall of Fame class is scheduled for April 2 at the Radisson Hotel Southeast at 3155 S. Vaughn Way in Aurora.

Ottmann came to Ponderosa in 1990 as a wrestling coach, and the Mustangs won eight state championships under his guidance. Ponderosa captured six consecutive state titles from 2003-2008. Ottmann has been Ponderosa’s AD for the past 25 years.

Smith spent time as the boys basketball coach at Ponderosa and Highlands Ranch.

He was also the boys and girls crosscountry coach for the Falcons. Smith was the boys basketball coach at Boulder from 1971-1982, and the Panthers won state titles in 1977 and 1979.

Smith’s 1988 Ponderosa boys basketball was crowned state champs, and his 1992 Highlands Ranch girls cross-country team won the state meet. He is currently the girls basketball coach at Alamosa.

Horvath, a 1979 Arapahoe High School graduate, coached the boys and girls teams at Columbine High School from 1982-2008, and the programs combined to capture nine state title and eight runner-up finishes in his tenure. He was the CHSCA Coach of the Year five times.

tainly working hard on our passing and defense. We have the speed and we just have to put it all together on offense and defense. We just want to make sure we put the pressure on defensively.”

Young scored 11 points in the Wheat Ridge victory over Alameda, which in the game was equaled by senior teammate Xavier Dreiling.

With the exception of freshman Zeke Van Tuyl, who stands in at 6-7, this is a team on the short side. But there is little doubt Wheat Ridge can move the ball

up and down the court. Overall, Dowd is looking at the balance his squad appears to have this season.

“We’re certainly off to a good start, especially after graduating five seniors off last year’s squad,” said Dowd. “These guys have done well for a group not having a great deal of experience. Physically, they are very good athletes. They like to get the shots off and play aggressive defense. Winning the league is their focus and it’s going to be a season of hitting the baskets and running.”

Dowd has coached the Farmers for the past 19 seasons.

“The boys have worked hard and they are not about to quit,” he said. “The league will be tough and I don’t think anyone is going to run away with it. We just want to come out hard every night and we’ve just got to be able to go out Boys continues on Page 26

Baseball could get RPI head start RPI stands for rating percentage index, and high school sports followers had better get used to the term.

All Colorado team sports will use RPI, instead of wild card points, to determine state playoff qualifiers starting in 2016-17.

However, according to CSHAANow.com, the baseball committee has approved a proposal that RPI be used to qualify teams in all classifications for the 2016 season, and could be the first sport to use RPI for post season qualifying.

The Legislative Council must approve the recommendation during its January meeting and results of out-of-state games will not be used in the RPI ratings.

RPI ranks teams based on wins, losses and strength of schedule.

If the baseball committee’s pitch passes, 10 Class 4A league champions would automatically qualify for postseason play.

The remainder of the bracket will be determined by the RPI. The eight host teams for the regionals will be decided by the league winners with the highest RPI. In Class 5A, the eight league champs automatically advance to the postseason with the remainder of the 32-team field finalized

by RPI standings. Teams ranked 1-8 in the RPI would host regional tournaments, but league champs would not necessarily be host schools.

Field hockey All-State selections Two players from Cherry Creek and three from Golden were among the field hockey participants who were honored on the CHSAA All-State team selected by field hockey coaches.

“We decided to focus on trying to shut down the inside game in overtime and that when their outside shooters got hot. Those three-pointers built a lead we didn’t have time to overcome.”

Key players/statistics: Against the Thunderbirds, Sydney Prey had 16 points, Abby Garnett had 15 while Preshus Nash and Makena Prey scored 1o points each. The Demons high scoring attack posted a 60-46 win over Mountain Vista and a 68-43 win over Overland to advance to the championship game against Cheyenne East. Golden is averaging 60 points and 30 rebounds a game. In the first six games, Sydney Prey was the leading scorer, averaging 18.5 points a game, Makena Prey averaged 13.2 points a game and Garnett averaged 11.8 points a game. Makena Prey was the team’s rebounding leader, averaging 8.7 boards a game and Garnett averaged 6.5.

They said it: Sophomore Garnett said Cheyenne East was the best team they have played this season and it was a tough, physical game.

“At the start of the game, I tried to contain Sierra Stellern who is a strong player but early fouls slowed me down a bit,” Garnett said after the championship game. “But my teammates stepped up and did the job.”

She said the Demons will try to learn from the fact the Thunderbirds got hot from three point range late in the game.

“I think we can learn from that,” she said. “We didn’t close out their outside shooters as well as we should have.

But hopefully we can learn from this game as we get ready to go into the league season.”

Garrett said her personal goal is to have a double-double in every game, meaning she scored points in double figures and pulled down rebounds in double figures every game.

Junior Sydney Prey said she is a better basketball player this year.

“I am stronger with the ball and I make better passes this season than I did last season,” she said after the win over Mountain Vista. “I like to drive to the basket. On outside shots, I usually don’t pull the trigger unless I am wide open.”

Coach Scarlett said the loss to Cheyenne East was the first loss of the new season.

“It’ll take the wind out of the sails for a little,” he said. “We can learn from the game and use what we can use what we learn to improve as we get ready to start the league season.”

Going forward: The Demons now have a 6-1 record after the tournament before playing a road game on Dec. 17 before the court went dark for the holidays. The Demons return to action on the road Jan. 6 at Conifer in the first league game of the season.

Boys Continued from Page 24

and get the job done.”

Junior Travis Cowan, who stands in at 6-0, is quick and stout and will be heavily counted on to help lead the defense and offense out front.

“We’ve just got to go out and play physical defensively,” said Cowan. “We just want to push hard and concentrate.

We are not a big team. We just want to make sure we can turn those turnovers into points. We’re off to a good start and we just have to keep going and work hard. We’ve got to go hard with our preseason conference games and keep up our early success.”

Xavier Dreiling, a 6-2, senior, and Cruz Martinez, 5-10, also a senior, believe Wheat Ridge will be successful.

“It is a good start, 3-0, but we’ve got a long way to go,” Dreiling said. “We just want to keep our heads up and keep a fast pace out on the court. We have come in prepared in our first games and we want to be ready for league because that’s where it counts.”

Added Martinez: “We just want to keep up the pressure and good things will happen for the team. We want to dig in defensively, work hard and keep mentally high. Our passes have been good and we’ve been able to move the ball. We just need to get more open shots. We want to work hard and have it go our way the best we can and for it to pay off.”

Wheat Ridge will close out the early portion of the season this week in games against Harrison and Frederick.

Jeffco board holds first full meeting

NEWS IN A HURRY

Board honors schools, teams

Library Trustees honor two volunteers from Golden The Jefferson County Public Library Board of Trustees recognized Tom and Alice Atkins of Golden for outstanding volunteerism and service to the library and community.

The two have dedicated more than 20 years of service to the library, and are recognized for having leading roles in securing funding for the Golden Library in the early 1990s; helping to relocate the Golden Library to its current, permanent location; and starting the Save Jeffco Libraries initiative in protest to a 2010 budget cut.

In addition, Tom Atkins served as a library trustee from 1994 to 2002, and had a hand in the move and renovation of the Golden Library, construction of the Belmar Library, planning for the Arvada Library, opening of the Conifer Library, the purchase of Fehringer Ranch, the 2000 mill levy initiative and the implementation of a shared library collection and an ILS system.

The library’s naming rights allow for recognition opportunities when the library’s board wants to honor an individual, foundation or corporation for outstanding service contributions consistent with the library’s nature and mission.

Naming rights opportunities are still available at the Golden Library.

For more information on naming rights, contact Rebecca Winning at 303-275-2203.

By Corrie Sahling csahling@coloradoc ommunitymedia.com As promised the night they were sworn in, the five newly elected Jeffco School Board members started out the first official business meeting of their terms by working collaboratively.

The Dec. 10 meeting was

the first after a successful recall in November’s election installed an entirely new board. During the recall election campaign, the sometimes less-thanfriendly interactions between the former board majority and others was mentioned often.

But that proved not to be the case now: Before the meeting even began, board members were joking about little things, such as the need for a gavel to get

the crowd’s attention.

Few actual district decisions were made. Instead, a large part of the evening was spent honoring schools and sport teams.

Among them: Pomona High School, which won the 5A state championship in gymnastics for the team competition; and Standley Lake’s Rachel Cody, who won the individual all-state 4A gymnastic title.

Evergreen High School’s soccer team won the 4A state championship, and before announcing what the team accomplished, Harmon put in her 2 cents that soccer is the best sport, later disputed by Lasell.

“I’d like to make a correction, Ms. Harmon,” Lasell said, smiling. “Ultimate Frisbee is the best sport in the world.”

Lakewood High School’s varsity ultimate Frisbee team won the fall mixed state championship against rival school Monarch. Stevens, who was announcing the team’s win, was a fan of the sport’s refereeing.

“The ultimate Frisbee student athletes also act as their own referees in disputes on the field — this promotes a spirit of the game mentality and allows individuals to own their behaviors on the field,” Stevens said. “I think maybe we should take that up and try out the spirit of the game here at the table as well, if we start to lose our composure.”

West Chamber announces new president Pam Bales assumed the president and CEO position of the West Chamber of Commerce on Dec. 4. Bales had been serving as the interim president

and CEO since August.

Prior to the president and CEO position, Bales worked as executive director of The West Chamber Foundation and oversaw the Leadership Jefferson County and Youth Leadership Jefferson County programs. She also worked with the West chamber as a contractor for major special events and as a writer for the organization’s Best of Business and Wellness Living magazines.

Bales has been invested in the Jefferson County community for many years, and serves on several boards including The Warren Tech Foundation, Jeffco Energy Action Project, Jefferson County Business Education Alliance and the Lariat Loop. She also served on The Action Center’s communications committee.

A journalist by trade, Bales handled public relations and special events for a wide range of clients. She has more than 25 years experience as an entrepreneur, and founded PEAK Public Relations in 1990 and Bales Communications Inc. in 2008.

The West Chamber of Commerce is a regional chamber serving all of Jefferson County.

League of Women Voters’ book club to study China The Jefferson County League of Women Voters’ Nonfiction Book Club will study China at its January and February book club meetings.

The book of study is “Wealth and Power: China’s Long March to the 21st Century” by Orville Schell and John Delury.

Meetings on this book will take place on Jan. 20 and 23, and Feb. 17 and 20.

To learn more about the League of Women Voters’ Nonfiction Book Club, contact Lynne at 303-985-5128.

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF DEC. 14, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) At this time you might want to resist that otherwise admirable Aries penchant for getting to the heart of a matter quickly. Keep in mind that a delicate situation calls for patience.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your aspects favor more diplomacy and fewer direct confrontations when dealing with a relationship problem. Avoiding hurt feelings can help in your search for the truth.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Positive aspects are strong this week. Although you might still have to deal with some problems caused by a recent period of turmoil, you are making progress, and that’s what counts.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A family matter could benefit from your counsel. But don’t come into it unless invited, and don’t stay if you feel uneasy. Just remember to reassure one and all that you’ll be there for them.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) As the truth about an ongoing situation emerges, you could find that you were right to defer judgment before you had all the facts. Now would be a good time to move on to other matters.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Your plans to take control of a personal situation because you feel you are best qualified could create resentment. Best to hear what everyone else involved in the matter has to say about it.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Uncovering some surprising background facts about that ongoing personal matter could make you reconsider the extent of your involvement. A neutral family member offers advice.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Religious or spiritual themes start to dominate your aspect this week. This can serve as a counterweight to the mounting effects of the season’s growing commercialization.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Taking on that recent challenge impressed a lot of important decision-makers. Meanwhile, proceed with your holiday plans, and don’t forget to include you-know-who in them.

Super Crossword & Sudoku Answers

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Disagreeing with an opinion you can’t accept could be dicey, and your motives might be questioned. Best to wait to mount a challenge until you have support for your position.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Getting involved in helping others in this increasingly hectic period not only makes the generous Aquarian feel good, but you could also gain a more substantive benefit from your actions.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) The Piscean way of thinking clearly and objectively helps you resolve a complex situation without creating any ill will. Don’t be surprised if your counsel is requested on another matter.

BORN THIS WEEK: You have a way of persuading people to look at the positive possibilities that make up any choices they might face. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

3. A birth parent of a child has the right to contest the termination of parental rights.

4. Failure to declare intent to contest the termination of parental rights may likely result in a termination of parental rights to the child. In order to contest the termination of the parent-child legal relationship, YOU MUST: • Request and then return a “Reply Form to Notice of Anticipated Expedited Relinquishment” to Hope’s Promise at the above addresses or to Grob & Eirich, LLC, 12596 W.

Granting opportunities: College gets ‘innovative’

Red Rocks Community College starts new programs with grant money

By Clarke Reader creader@colorado :communitymedia.com Colorado is among the states with the lowest

spending on higher education, which often means institutions and students pay the price.

To keep these institutions running and advancing, schools like Red Rocks Community College have to go after grant money.

“Grants and external funding have become so important to what we do

YOU CAN BUY A NEW FURNACE

here,” said Kristin Aslan, director of grants and operations at the Red Rocks Community College (RRCC) Foundation.

“When we’re looking at cuts and tuition increases, we have to be innovative in how we operate.”

The college’s grants department is small — just Aslan and another half-time associate, and

they split their time between other work at the college. Still, the department manages to bring in an average of $1 million a year, a total Aslan said is increasing every year.

“In a way, we have a step up because we do have a dedicated department to getting grants,” she said. “Federal grants are usually the larger sums, while private grants usually are around $10 (thousand) to $20,000.”

Aslan stays up to date on available grants through a variety of ways, including subscribing to specific lists and newsletters, searching websites and being a member of networks. But it’s her experience in the role that brings her the most contacts.

“There is quite a bit of criteria we have to look at when considering going after a grant: Does it align with our programs, our infrastructure and capacity? Does it require matching funds?” Aslan said. “We have to consider the time required to apply for the grant, as well as the cost. Basically, we have to decide if it’s worth it.”

Some recent large grants received at the college include a five-year $972,892 Health Resources and Service Administration (HRSA) grant to

Know the score:

enhance RRCC’s physician assistant program, and a $274,405 grant for suicide prevention from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).

The HRSA grant will train 160 PAs to use patient-centered medical home (PCMH) principles.

These activities will include increasing the focus of that type of care in rural and underserved communities. Training with them will be 54 primary care providers who work in rural and/or medically underserved communities.

Twelve senior primary care medical residents will be trained to supervise physician assistants in a PCMH practice so the project can continue to improve Colorado healthcare providers.

“We want to educate students and give them the opportunity to learn more about these kinds of homes, so we will develop a training clinic for them to do so in,” said Christa Dobbs, associate director of the PA program. “It’s a unique approach, but we think it’s a great approach to getting students prepared for this kind of care.”

The Suicide Prevention Project is a result of a partnership between the college and the Jefferson

Center for Mental Health.

The three-year grant will support developing a comprehensive suicide prevention plan for the college. The plan will include the development of a network linking the campus to the community, and engaging faculty and staff in training with the goal of creating a campus culture-free from stigma on seeking help for mental and behavioral health issues.

“We recognize that suicide among college students is a serious issue,” said Dr. Harriet Hall, president and CEO of the Jefferson Center for Mental Health, in a statement. “The comprehensive strategy that RRCC will take to provide wellness and help-seeking programs to its students is both timely and necessary.”

Sustaining these programs after the money runs out is becoming a bigger area of focus, according to Aslan, and many groups want detailed plans for the programs’ continuation.

“The hardest part isn’t applying for the grants, it’s implementing the programs once we have them,” Aslan said. “What we really want to do is help students be successful in as many ways as we can.”
