By Peter Jones ld Town Tavern may be a frequent “haunt” for happy-hour revelers, but by some reckoning, the bar’s ghosts are much more than memories of forgotten bar tabs. Sometimes when Tavern coowner Mark Lane saunters down the creaky stairs to the storage cellar, he sees the flash of a mysterious small child. “It looks like a boy with a blue hat or something,” he said. “The hair on my arm will stand up and I’ll get goose bumps. Sometimes I’ll be over by the grill cooking – I swear, I can feel someone looking at me.” One night, Lane’s husky business partner was downstairs doing inventory while Lane was manning the bar. Aside from a few regulars, there was no one else in the Tavern that night, least of all in the dank and dingy cellar. “He heard someone clearing their throat and ran upstairs,” Lane recounted. “He is 6 foot 4 and 300 pounds – and he was white as a ghost.” When Ever, a cook who asked that we not use his last name, overheard our conversation, he offered up his own experiences. “It’s a person,” he said of the vague figure he has seen haunting the Tavern’s backrooms. “I don’t say anything ‘cause I don’t want to sound crazy.” Oddly enough, there is nothing unique about the Old Town Tavern and its bevy of ghosts.

Although Robinson stands by the merits of the now-overturned job requirement, he says it would have been a waste of taxpayer dollars to pursue the matter further. “We had an obligation to ensure that those serving as peace officers were U.S. citizens,” Robinson said. “Obviously, that isn’t the case based on some technicalities. Very frankly, my decision to go forward and not object any further was a business decision.

The former employee who filed the lawsuit was a U.S. citizen and had documentation that showed her work authorization, but not her citizenship. Under the settlement agreement, the sheriff’s employment-eligibility practices will be subject to monitoring by the Justice Department for three years. The sheriff’s office also agreed to pay $500 in civil penalties. Robinson’s office had already addressed the identified victim’s back-pay claims through an earlier agreement based on her private lawsuit. In addition, the sheriff’s office informed other affected non-U.S. citizen applicants that they could reapply for available positions. Al key staff in the sheriff’s office will undergo an hour of related Webbased training.

By Jan Wondra Cherry Hills Village has a new take on the old “rock, paper, scissors” game. This winter art will be rolling throughout the Village and gobbling up snow on Village roads. The shovels of all three Village plows have been turned into art, courtesy of students and art teachers of Cherry Hills Elementary, Kent Denver School and St. Mary’s Academy. The art will be seen on the streets of Cherry Hills Village for the coming winter season. If public reception is positive, then next year the city will start with a fresh coat of white paint on the plows, and invite new art from Village students. The idea to turn common objects of work into works of art came from Cherry Hills Village Street Superintendent Ralph Mason. Having heard of this being done in a couple cities around the country, he went to Public Arts Commission Chair Ann Polumbus with the idea. “We were thrilled by this idea,” said Polumbus. “Public art is not just massive outdoor art. This puts art and expression on workaday objects and allows a new generation to understand the role of art in everyday life.” Once Mason’s department prepared the snow plows with a coat of weather-resistant white paint, Public Art Commission member Teresa Harbaugh approached art teachers from the
three schools, which embraced the idea and went to work. St. Mary’s Art Teacher Cheri Buxman responded immediately, guiding her middle school art classes to a design that highlights Colorado’s snow-covered mountains that will remind viewers of a whimsical take on Colorado’s famous mountain peak license plates. Cherry Hills Elementary School Art Teacher Tara Roberts led her students to a winter wonderland scene that celebrates Colorado’s ski and snowboard playground. A snowboarder flies off a snow bank, directly into the path of the snowplows oncoming snow. Jon Fortmiller, Kent Denver art teacher, took a democratic approach to creating a giant snowplow monster mouth that will gobble snow this winter. He and fellow teacher, Sarah Mitchell, decided they would get any and all interested students involved in the opportunity, rather than making it an assignment in a specific class. “We invited the entire student body to submit sketches of design ideas,” said Fortmiller. “Then we asked them to join us for early morning meetings before school to come together and design and paint the snowplow. The students each volunteered their time and talent during the course of the few weeks we had to complete the mission.”
“The idea for putting a monster mouth on the front of the plow came from a sixth grader, Ari Diamond-Topelson,” said Fortmiller. “We had a wonderful time and it was a rare and fun opportunity to have all grade levels working shoulder-toshoulder on a project.” Kent Denver provided the names of all the students who volunteered their time on the project which include, by name and graduation year: Salem Tewelde ‘14, Josaleigh Powers ‘17, Natalie Watkins ‘17, Jessica Mitchell ‘17, Siena Fite ‘17, Ari Diamond-Topelson ‘20, Arianna Noble ‘18, Alice Noble ‘19, and Andrew Goldblatt ‘19. Ralph Mason, from Cherry Hills Village Public Works, dropped off and picked up the plows to Kent Denver and St. Mary’s. Cherry Hills Elementary students had a special treat. They got to trot across the road to the city’s Public Works parking lot to do their painting. All plows were then finished off with a protective coating and await the first major snow falls of the season. Look for the three plows clearing your streets in the very near future. “Our rolling art can add some fun to winter snow storms,” said Mayor Doug Tisdale. “If you enjoy them, do give a shout-out to the city and give a thank you to the students who volunteered their time and their talent.”

I haven’t seen them since.” Greg Reinke, owner of Reinke Bros. costume store and the proprietor of Littleton’s Haunted Mansion, is oddly enough not prone to ghost stories himself, though he has heard rumors that tie his Littleton family to the frightful goingson. Supposedly, his grandmother, Elsie Reinke, the onetime owner of Reinke’s Laundry, can still be heard playing piano through the walls of the Broads off Broadway antique store. A “fairy ghost” was supposedly photographed at another store, and so on. Some years ago, such stories prompted Brackney, a former Arapahoe County commissioner, and his friend Brian Vogt, who was then a governor’s cabinet appointee, to launch the Haunts of Littleton. The often meandering, but entertaining tour took a theatrical and irreverent walk through a town that has made some unofficial lists of the 10 most haunted cities in the United States. “Surprisingly, there were a ton of people that had ghosts,” Brackney said. “I did spend hours looking for murders.

As for Brackney, he has never seen a ghost and is not a believer – except when it comes to believing in the eccentricity of the city. “I love Littleton,” he said. “It’s weird and wacky – historically and currently.”
John Brackney says Old Town Tavern, formerly the Family Bar, is haunted by more than regular drinkers. Owners insist a little boy dressed in blue often lurks in the cellar. Brackney, president of the South Metro Denver Chamber, formerly gave haunted tours through Historic Downtown Littleton. A haunted cellar awaits.

Major delays continue at University and Belleview By Tom Barry The Cherry Hills intersection of University Boulevard and Belleview Avenue has made some major progress, as most of the concrete in the intersection has been poured recently. Additionally, nearly all of the extensive underground infrastructure work has been completed. There continues to be major road construction activity at this heavily traveled intersection accommodating drivers in Denver Tech Center area and residents throughout the southeast and southwest quadrants of the metro area. Significant traffic congestion remains at the intersection, as The Villager experienced major delays in travels last week during a weekday morning and to a lesser extent over the weekend. At times, on east
and westbound Belleview Avenue, traffic was backed up for well over a half mile as motorists crawled along as a result of preprogrammed short traffic signal light cycles. Jalisco Contractors was hired by the Colorado Department of Transportation to conduct a major reconstruction of this heavily traveled southeast metro intersection. As of last weekend, there were minimal traffic control efforts being utilized besides the standard orange cones and concrete barriers to address traffic congestion. Drivers in the turn lanes prior to reaching University on Belleview were using the turning lanes to jockey for a better position to turn right onto southbound or left onto northbound University and then turning into the straight away lane. This shortcut
maneuver allowed impatient drivers to get closer to University, having passed several dozen vehicles waiting for the light. Last Saturday afternoon, two flag people assisted heavy construction equipment operators within the intersection. The construction efforts are literally kicking up a lot of dust, along with some loose rocks and other materials scattered about in the intersection. This project is expected to run into March 2014. Motorists are strongly encouraged to allow additional time to traverse this intersection especially during the rush hours and into the evening. Alternate routes are strongly advised for the remaining months. CDOT did not respond to a construction update requested by The Villager before press time.

Sin Taxes KINDLING
By Robert Sweeney
A ‘yes’ vote I’ve slowly developed a “live and let live” attitude toward tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, gambling, and other related social and life choices. I’ve seen first hand what sub-
stance abuse can do to people’s lives, careers and families – preaching doesn’t do any good. In most cases those with social addictions have to crash and burn badly to ever recover from some of these addictions. Bob Cote, who founded Step 13, was a long time heroin addict who found peace and tranquility in his life by assisting other addicts in cleaning up their lives. He died recently and a Memorial Service is planned for him at Coors Field, Oct. 26 at 2 p.m. Basically from a broad societal viewpoint, we need to allow “Sin Taxes” where we make users pay for their habits. We don’t outlaw them, we quit putting people in prison for minor infractions, but we collect millions of dollars for the privilege of folks being allowed to drink, smoke, gamble
and smoke their grass. This brings up Proposition AA, a ballot proposal to impose a 15 percent state excise tax on growers and distributors when transferring the product to retailers with school construction receiving the first $40 million in tax revenues collected. Secondly, it would impose a 10 percent state sales tax on retail marijuana in addition to the existing 2.9 percent for regulation and enforcement of the new retail marijuana industry. This also directs 15 percent of the new revenue collected from the 10 percent state sales tax to cities and counties where retail marijuana sales occur. Lastly, allow the state legislature to increase or decrease the excise and sales taxes on retail marijuana so long as the rate of
either tax does not exceed 15 percent. Rest assured that we as a civilized society are probably not going to force people from these “Sin Tax” activities. Therefore we’re better off to tax these activities and allow users to do what they wish, but reuest them to pay for these social activities under legal guidelines. America already collects huge amounts of tax revenues on the sale of gasoline, alcohol and tobacco. Adding marijuana to the mixture will attain a revenue stream that will hopefully cover the costs of enforcement and related mental and health fallout in future years. A “yes” vote is recommended on Proposition AA.

A review of the qualifications of the two candidates will demonstrate why I, Kathy Turley, am the better choice. When you elected me to serve on the Home Rule Charter Commission, I considered that assignment a very serious responsibility. I know the Charter (our Constitution) inside out. I helped write it. When they removed the citizens’ voice by eliminating two elected positions (clerk and treasurer), I voted against it. I signed the Charter because you elected me to represent you. Having asked the hard questions, I exercised independent judgment for you, the citizens of Centennial. Being accountable to you and not to any special interest groups will always guide me in decision-making. I have unique qualifications after 40 years of community service on several boards and commissions, ranging from the early childhood to senior concerns. Although I’m a retired sales executive, I never lost my passion for addressing and preparing for the influx of the elderly. Currently, I’m aware of two startling statistics “every 7 seconds someone is turning 60 and 10,000 people a day are turning 65.” Centennial should be instrumental in responding to senior issues, and I am committed to advancing their initiatives. Gov. Owens appointed me to the White House Conference on Aging and Centennial City Council appointed me to serve on the Senior Commission. My opponent has never been elected or appointed to any city, county, regional or state commission. Since May, I’ve been walking District 1, meeting my constituents and learning about their issues. During the last three weeks, I’ve personally talked to more than 5,000 citizens. Meanwhile, my opponent’s chief promoter, who relies on funding from Centennial and Arapahoe County, spent his time on social media and organizing Robo calls – each targeting either Republican or Democrat party members in a non-partisan race! I find it particularly offensive that this key promoter represents special interests rather than protecting neighborhood concerns. My opponent claims the entire City Council has supported him when, in fact, at least three members have not. He also implies the endorsement by Centennial’s Economic Development Director, which is untrue and she denied it. “I truly care about Centennial - its residents and its businesses! I assure you that I will work hard to keep taxes low for residents and businesses alike.” As Nancy Doty remarked, “Kathy Turley has leadership skills and passion for limited government.” Since I know so many of you now, I am well qualified to bring your voice to Centennial’s Council.

Don’t be deceived on Amendment 66 ...Vote NO
While the pro 66 ads say it is “for the kids,” there is no mandate that the money will actually go inside the classroom, which means it can just as easily and likely to go into administration and more bureaucracy. In the past 17 years the number of people in admin has increased 83 percent while student population has only increased 38 percent. We need more teachers, not more bureaucracy. It is wrong to increase taxes on
Colorado’s families in a struggling economy. This permanent annual $1 billion per year tax increase is the largest tax increase in Colorado history! It will result in a 27 percent tax increase for some of those making over $75,000 and an 8 percent increase for those making under $75,000 and doesn’t even hold anyone accountable for how the money is spent. It isn’t fair how the how the money is to be distributed unevenly to the different school districts. Some experts estimate that for every $1 paid in by Cherry Creek School taxpayers, only 59 cents will actually go to Cherry Creek Schools. Don’t give Denver the power to make decisions for what our students need in Cherry Creek. We need school reform but this isn’t it. This bill is unfair to students, bad for teachers and just more wasteful spending for Colorado. Vote NO on 66! Lynne Cottrell Aurora
current tax rate costing us an average of $36 per year. A few less lattes and it’s covered. Please, do your own research. I went in with a skeptical eye and came out a firm supporter for 3B. (Amendment 66 is another story with a much different conclusion.) My husband just read this letter and said I sounded like an “insider.” I’m not. I just did my due diligence for a district that I care about. Yes on 3b! Anne Sieker Centennial
Understand Centennial 2G
In the Oct. 17 Villager Election Guide, a letter to the editor made several misinformed statements regarding Centennial Ballot Question 2G. The letter was from Monika Bromley, but she was not identified in the letter as a candidate for mayor of Centennial. The fact that she is running for mayor would be important to know, given that the letter also included an attack on the incumbent Mayor Cathy Noon. Centennial’s Ballot Question 2G simply asks the voters to restore their city’s authority to use its fiber optic infrastructure in nonexclusive partnerships with the private sector to foster a more competitive marketplace for Internet and cable television services. The ballot language of 2G makes clear the city’s intent. Before sending 2G to the ballot, the Centennial City Council considered developing a business plan for the use of its fiber optic infrastructure (which is currently only used for city traffic signals and weather stations). Our conclusion was that it would be irresponsible for the city to spend money and staff resources to develop a business plan for an activity that state law currently forbids us to do. First we must have the permission of our citizens and only after we have received that permission would it make sense to develop a more detailed plan. To have created a business plan before getting approval from the voters would be as unwise as an employee who spends money on plane tickets and hotel reservations before clearing vacation time with their boss. It just wouldn’t be financially responsible and, as a City Council member, being financially responsible with citizens’ tax dollars is my most important duty. Mrs. Bromley argues that the city should first provide the voters with a business plan, including the city’s role and limitations. This flies in the face of the flexibility needed to manage a business plan and the best use of this technological asset. It would almost be impossible to develop a plan to send to the voters that wouldn’t be obsolete within a few years. This technology and marketplace are advancing rapidly, and the city should not have to predict all possible scenarios for the use of fiber optics. And the limits on the powers of City Council with regard to the use of our fiber optics are no different than the limits that restrict their power to conduct any other business in the city: the limits found in the City Charter, TABOR restrictions on tax increases and debt, the ability of the voters to vote for and recall elected officials, etc. Our City has been extremely responsive to citizen concerns and provides many opportunities for citizen input and engagement, while at the same time remaining a small-government, fiscally-conservative city. I hope that readers of The Villager will take a careful look at the language found in 2G and decide not to let our fiber optic infrastructure go to waste. We must take back
Theresa Martens for Centennial City Council, District 2
Theresa Martens has my vote for Centennial City Council in District 2. At our homeowners group forum she stated that road repair and maintenance was a priority along with keeping taxes low while finding better ways to deliver city services. At that same meeting Doris Truhlar said that roads were not a major concern. After several opportunities to listen to Theresa Martens and her opponent, I find that Theresa is more responsive to citizen concerns, and is more knowledgeable about issues in Centennial. Nancy Caporale Centennial
Yes on 3B
The minute I heard about 3B, I was skeptical. (I think our current state of government has led me to natural skepticism.) Building repairs? Really? Is the district that old? Where is the money going, exactly? Doesn’t the state provide funding for that? Where in my wallet is this going to hit me? Well, I did my own research and attended a few meetings where Terry Davis, LPS Director of Operations and Maintenance, spoke. This guy has literally crawled in every nook and cranny in every building more than once to see exactly what’s needed. He has put in countless hours with principals and architects (who volunteer their time) to determine a priority list. He has itemized everything that needs to be fixed and created a budget. (You can even look at it online!) I was shocked. In my 15 years of experience working in other school districts and as a parent, I’ve never seen such responsibility and transparency. So the answers to my skeptical questions above were answered. 1. Building repairs such as replacing roofs, ventilation systems, lighting, fire and security systems, plumbing, etc… It’s not glamorous; it’s a necessity. 2. Yes, the district is that old. The youngest school is 32 years old and the oldest is 93 years old. 3. Look at the LPS Capital Improvement webpage and you will see exactly where the money is going. Every penny. 4. No, the state does NOT provide any funding for building repairs. 5. It doesn’t hit my wallet. LPS was smart enough to refinance two years ago to a much lower rate. Instead of asking for more taxes, they are asking to extend the

Letters to the Editor Continued from Page 6 our right to use our infrastructure. Please vote yes on 2G. Ken Lucas Centennial City Councilman
When the only tool you have is a hammer
America’s and thus Colorado’s and thus Littleton’s economy and fortunes have risen and fallen with the rise and fall of the middle class. The rise and fall of the middle class has been driven by the rise and fall of wages mostly negotiated and driven by the rise and fall of unions. Targeting the unions for destruction aims the hammer at ourselves whether we are or ever have been union members, which for the record I must state, I have not been. In the last 12 months, Littleton City Council has approved some 2,750 new apartments to be built in this small city that we love. Most of the developers have touted that these are going to be luxury apartments that will be rented to young people who make $70,000 a year. These would be middle class workers with good jobs. If there were a glut of such young people, and if there were a glut of such jobs then this building craze would make sense. To solve our revenue problem what we really need is a glut of high paying jobs. http://www.seniorjobbank.org/data base/Colorado/Colorado.html shows the top 100 jobs relatively more common in CO than elsewhere. The prevalence of the higher paying jobs is not high enough to fill all the new apartments that Denver has approved...some 7,100 so far, or all those that Englewood and other communities that touch the light rail have or are in the process of approving. Numbers of jobs in 2006, which we will
remember was before the crash of 2008 included some 2,400 airline pilots, copilots and flight engineers who made over $100,000. They might have decided that Littleton is the best place to live based on its location relative to the airport but probably not. A total of 2,860 computer hardware engineers might have been interested in 2006 in living in Littleton but timing and location were not meshing then. The 9,470 computer software engineers and programmers were earning enough in 2006 to rent a luxury apartment. And 4,810 construction managers might have been interested in living in a luxury apartment in Littleton that year but most of them were still busy buying houses. But that was then and this is now. Millions of jobs were lost when the housing bubble burst and these jobs are not likely to come back until we have enough good jobs to support home ownership. Today’s college graduates are not finding good paying jobs and high school graduates are having even worse problems finding any kind of decent jobs. One could make the mistake of saying that we don’t need college degrees so we don’t need to fund higher education any more than Mississippi does. The only tool the majority of the Littleton City Council seems to have had in the past year has been high-density apartments. This tool was the hammer that was used to drive a wedge into this little town because the developers’ sales job was done so well and the majority of the council fell for it. Our crystal ball is a bit fuzzy so we can’t know whether all these will be built or rented if they are. What we do know is that the economy still doesn’t have enough momentum to provide the high paying jobs that are required in order to pay the rents promoted by the developers’ sales teams. What we do know is that if the jobs that are available do not pay enough to afford
luxury apartments, young people will not be able to move out of the family home until such jobs exist. What we do know is that if all these apartments are built out and rented our city will have higher expenses to provide the basic services that renters and owners require. In case one is confused, those services are police, fire, emergency, education, roads, streets, sewers, water, etc. It is time to rebuild the middle class, if possible. It is time to stop the attacks on unions and realize that even with some problems they historically did create, what they mostly created was a trained work force with higher wages and greater benefits, which causes other employers to raise wages and benefits. All this drove the economy because it is built almost entirely on consumer spending by middle class citizens. The wealthiest among us do not need nor do they buy more than a few pairs of jeans, they don’t need more than one washer and dryer, they don’t need nor buy more than one or two luxury cars. They make money with investments in the market, not buy creating jobs. Small businesses always have and always will create more local jobs, which is what is needed to rent apartments or buy Littleton’s small houses when our town’s seniors do decide to sell and move to Highlands Ranch or Aurora where they can get a patio home or a condo where they don’t have to mow the lawn or shovel snow. Thursday evening, Oct 3 some 100 or so local citizens attended a pre-screening of a movie by Robert Reich titled Inequality for All. Economics made interesting and explained in pictures was definitely worth the time. One doesn’t have to be a math major to understand what has happened and is happening to our economy and thus our lives. It is showing at the Mayan this week in Denver. Betty Harris Littleton

Choose the adoption option: Lots of loving dogs waiting for forever homes $50 off the adoption fee for all dogs 1 year and older
Submitted by Chris Gallegos, Dumb Friends League public relations manager
In the animal world, October is known as Adopt-a-Shelter-Dog Month—a month dedicated to increasing awareness of the millions of shelter dogs looking for homes across the country. Dogs like Tilly, a blind, 10-year-old Maltese mix, and Max, a 1-year-old, three-legged boxer, are given a second chance for happiness, along with thousands of other homeless dogs, at the Dumb Friends League. The League provides each dog, regardless of age or condition, with compassionate care and customized treatment at its two shelters. Adopt-a-Shelter-Dog Month is also a time to debunk a number of misconceptions about shelter pets. For example, many people think that dogs are brought to shelters because they did something “wrong.” That typically isn’t true. A majority of the pets in our care are surrendered due to “people reasons,” like having to move, allergies, or a lack of time or money to care for a pet. While behavior problems can occasionally be a reason that pets are surrendered, most issues can

be resolved with proper training and extra time and attention from the pet’s owner. Many dog “problems” actually are common canine behaviors that were most likely not understood by the previous owner. For dogs in our care that need a little extra TLC, the Dumb Friends League provides in-shelter training programs to help them become better candidates for adoption. For example, Head Start teaches good behavior to our more challenging young adult dogs, and Canine Courage is specifically geared toward helping timid and under-socialized canines. We also offer free behavior advice through our Pet Behavior Helpline to all dog owners—whether you have
adopted from us or not—in order to curb undesirable behaviors and keep people and pets living happily together. If you’re looking for your next best furry friend, we encourage you to choose the adoption option. From Oct. 1 through Oct. 25, we’ll take $50 off the adoption fee for all dogs 1 year and older. This adoption special is sponsored by Hill’s Science Diet. By adopting one of our homeless dogs, you will not only be providing a loving home to a grateful pet, but you will help open up space for another homeless pet in need at our shelters. For more information on the Dumb Friends League, visit www. ddfl.org or call 303-751-5772.
DIA an important economic driver for state
A recent study showed that Denver International Airport, a proud investor in the South Metro Denver Chamber community, has grown to become a $26.3 billion economic engine for the state of Colorado and a critical link for businesses and travelers. The 2013 Economic Impact Study for Colorado Airports, which was released by the Colorado Department of Transportation, shows that DIA’s role in supporting the state’s economy has increased almost 18 percent, from $22.3 billion per year in 2008 to $26.3 billion per year in 2013. “As DIA approaches 20 years of operation in 2015, it continues to fill a vital economic role in Colorado’s economy,” chamber President & CEO John Brackney said. “The chamber has been an active partner in DIA’s mission and we have personally met with leaders of industry in our state to encourage them to utilize the airport and the airlines there to their fullest potential.” Among the other findings in the study: • DIA supports the equivalent of 188,338 full-time jobs and a payroll totaling $8.6 billion • The airport accounts for 66 percent of the estimated $18.2
Mormons help flood victims Submitted by LDS Church On Oct. 1, 50 children from the Littleton Stake of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints participated in a service project for victims in Boulder who lost everything they had in the recent flood. The Southglenn Ward sponsored the project, in which children ages 4 to 12, including 14 Cub Scouts wearing Mormon Helping Hands vests, loaded a 26-foot Penske truck (provided by the company and a local church member) full of clothes, toys, furniture, household items, Halloween costumes and diapers. Along with the items collected, $500 was donated. The children had eager hearts and willing spirits as they collected the items and then loaded the truck in just one hour so everything could
be delivered the same evening. Comments heard from the children as the cars filed by with items for the drive were that it felt good doing something for someone else and, “It makes me happy and proud because this will make a difference in their lives.” The overall sentiment of all involved was that they will never forget the feeling of joy they experienced using their little hands to help their community. Elizabeth, a 14-year-old girl from Kentlands Ward in the Washington, D.C., area, heard about the flood victims in northern Colorado and wanted to help, so she and nine of her friends made 10 fleece blankets that went home with her grandma who flew to Colorado and gave them to the drive.

“DIA is well positioned to capitalize on this growth and remain a critical link to the world for businesses in the Rocky Mountain region,” said Kim Day, Denver’s manager of aviation. “The Federal Aviation Administration forecasts that air travel on U.S. airlines will nearly double to 1.2 billion passengers by 2032. The airport is already seeing doubledigit increases in international passenger traffic, and we are working to expand the number of gates to accommodate growing air service. At the same time, we are bringing our customers a better mix of shopping and dining choices, and working to improve the overall travel experience.”

Douglas D. Kerbs - broker, Fuller Sotheby’s International Realty, and Jean Merkelbach – broker, Sierra Sotheby’s International Realty
Fuller Sotheby’s Kerbs attends Sotheby’s Hong Kong auction Douglas D. Kerbs, a key representative and broker of the Fuller Sotheby’s International Realty Downtown Denver office, attended the recent Sotheby’s Hong Kong Autumn Auction 2013 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. “Our unique association with the Sotheby’s Auction House provides Fuller Sotheby’s International Realty with a valuable point of differentiation in the global real estate market,” said Kerbs. “Our attendance at this event allows us to showcase our extraordinary listings among this critical and qualified audience of potential buyers and sellers. No other brokerage in the country has the global reach of Sotheby’s.” According to the National Association of REALTORS, Chinese buyers accounted for 18 percent of the $68.2 billion that foreigners spent on homes during a
12 month period ending March 31, 2013. Foreign buyers now more than ever are looking to the U.S. for home purchasing. Aside from investing or parking cash, foreign buyers are paying close attention to local school systems and buying homes they can pass down to their children. Traditionally markets like California, New York, and Florida have been the major boomtowns for foreign buyers, however today, the Denver metro is a rising contender. “My presence in Hong Kong was not only to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Sotheby’s Auction House in Asia, but to make an introduction of Metropolitan Denver to the Hong Kong market and brokerage offices across China. It also allowed me to connect with brokers in our network from New York, Atlanta, San Francisco, Utah, Los Angeles, and Canada, strengthening referral and relocation opportunities for our
Denver offices,” said Kerbs. The Sotheby’s Hong Kong Autumn Sales Auction 2013 was held Oct. 4 – 8. The 16 recordbreaking auctions saw new benchmarks set in many categories. Together they realized HK 41.96 billion / US $538 million, the highest grand total ever achieved by any global arts business operating in Asia. “This event provided a forum for our network to interact with each other, potential Asian buyers and Auction House executives and clientele,” said Philip White, president and chief executive officer, Sotheby’s International Realty Affiliates LLC. “Those who attended gained key insights into the Asian market and overseas buyers. We are proud to offer our network members the opportunity to take part in this important yearly sales event.”
Denver metro area luxury home sales edge higher again
Submitted by Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Luxury home sales in the Denver Metro Area edged higher in September compared to a year ago along with the median sale price, according to a new report by Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage. The figures are based on Multiple Listing Service data of all homes sold for more than $1 million last month in the Denver metro area. A total of 73 luxury homes in the region sold in September, up 5.7 percent from 69 high-end sales in September 2012. On a monthly basis, sales were down from the 98 transactions in August, although some of the decline can be attributed to a normal seasonal drop. The median sale price of a luxury home last month climbed 4.3 percent from a year ago to $1,369,000. The median price was also up 5.9 percent from the previous month. Two other key market indicators also improved last month with homes selling faster on average and sellers receiving a higher percentage of their asking price compared to a year ago. However the upper end of the luxury market did show signs of a slight cooling as the number of $2 million home sales declined from 15 last September to 12 this year. “The luxury housing market
Compared to a year ago, luxury home sales have risen. Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage lists this home in Cherry Hills Village at $2,995,000. in the Denver metro area is still moving forward although we are seeing signs that it is gradually easing a bit after a tremendous run-up earlier this year,” said Chris Mygatt, president of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage. “The challenge we continue to face is having enough inventory for sale to meet the steady demand of buyers out in the market,” he said. “On top of that, the government shutdown is causing delays in getting deals closed as we wait for paperwork to be processed. We’ll have to work through both of those issues in the coming weeks to keep the market moving ahead.” Some key findings from this month’s Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage luxury report: • The most expensive sale in the Denver Metro Area last month
was a four-bedroom, seven-bath approximately 8,800-square-foot home in Cherry Hills Village that sold for $5.3 million; • Denver boasted the most million-dollar sales with 27, followed by Boulder with 13, Greenwood Village with eight, and Castle Rock with six; • Homes sold in an average of 101 days on the market, down from 152 days a year ago but up from 82.3 days the previous month; • Sellers received an average of 93 percent of their asking price, up from 92 percent a year ago but down from 96 percent the previous month. The Denver Metro Area Luxury Home Report is produced by Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, a specialist in high-end real estate sales.

It has been a remarkable 13 years. Because of the sponsors, countless volunteers and thousands of people who have participated each year, we have been able to donate to the Community Asset Project over $1 million to support programs encouraging healthy behaviors in our children. While this year marked our last year as title sponsor of the event, we continue to support our community and our children. Next year, Cherry Creek Schools will take on stewardship of the Fitness Festival so this important work can continue. We hope that you, the members of our community, continue to support this wonderful event and the programs it makes possible in our schools. We look forward to continuing our work together to create happy, healthy, contributing members of our society.

A record-setting 700 guests attend UpLift’s Upward Banquet
C
By Glory Weisberg olorado UpLift began as Kent Hutcheson’s dream, and through three decades of dedication to his vision, the massive Marriott DTC ballroom was filled by 700 supporters, Oct. 17. There at the very beginning too was Dick Saunders, who has stuck with Hutcheson, supporting the vision virtually every single step of the way. Today, thousands of Denver Public Schools inner-city students have them and others to thank for rescuing them from the stranglehold of poverty, fear and low-performing schools. UpLift’s graduation rate is 90 percent! Guests got to walk a virtual mile in the shoes of some of these 60,000 at-risk, struggling kids as they told their stories. One girl
said she couldn’t sleep at night, protecting her younger sisters from their mother’s abusive boyfriend. Another told a tale of having a father in prison and a mother who couldn’t handle the stress, taken by addiction, leaving him and his siblings alone to face the dangerous inner city. Uplift’s mentors develop long-term relationships, starting in elementary school, following them through high school graduation. Some of these now grown students come back to UpLift as counselors who have walked in the present day kids’ shoes. Every Upward banquet guest got a cell phone-looking device in their bags at check-in and they were used to quiz each person on their knowledge of UpLift’s challenges and achievements. This is just a sample of the
ingenuity of Hutcheson’s vision. No doubt those clickers will be back in 2014. As President and CEO Mike Painter said, “In 2013, Colorado UpLift will serve nearly 5,000 inner-city youth, …altering the course of many young lives.” Board chairman Walt Rakowich said, “UpLift is one of the most successful programs of its kind in the country,” and that program has now spread to New York City, Portland, Oregon, Orlando and Phoenix, which is named Elevate Phoenix. The audience was made up of those with long-term histories of UpLift help and is joined by Yup, young professionals who had four of their own banquet tables.

T
he Puppy Up! Walk is Nov. 2 at Stapleton Central Park. This is a new one for us in Denver. The name of the nonprofit is “2 Million Dogs, Cancer Touches Everyone.” This group funds “comparative oncology research benefiting both pets and people.” They also raise awareness of the common links between canine and human cancers. According to the press release, “The organization donated $80,000 for a comparative oncology study of mammary tumors at Princeton University in collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania. The project treats shelter dogs with mammary tumors and then studies tissues to understand how breast cancer metastasizes in women. More recently, “2 Million Dogs” contributed $20,000 to fund a study on osteosarcoma (bone cancer) at MIT and Harvard’s Broad Institute, which is studying 11 breeds disproportionately affected by osteosarcoma.” “Comparative oncology has tremendous potential to give us key insights to what’s causing cancer across species,” said Ginger Morgan, executive director of 2 Million Dogs. “Comparative oncology is important and necessary if we want a world in which cancer is no longer one of the top killers of our children, our parents, and our pets.” Such research is also going on at the Colorado State University College of Veterinary Medicine. Seen here is terrier, Rowan, who has lymphoma and has been in remission for four years, and Hunter Baker, who is battling osteosarcoma. Rowan is the Canine Cancer hero and Hunter is the Human Cancer Hero. Also seen here is Cody,

Karel Horney tells us that the recent Adam’s Camp Golf Tournament broke all previous tournament records by raising $157,000. She credits host, Mark Wiebe who’d recently won the British Senior Open and the Pacific Links Hawaii Championship on the Senior Tour. Mark, Cathy and Gunner Wiebe hosted the Adam’s Camp Golf Tournament and they get the credit for raising over $600,000 for Adam’s Camp over the past seven years. Campers Erik Johnson, P.J. Bernardis, Will Harmon, Ian Brennan and Adam Horney helped with check-in and prize distribution. This year alone, the Camp served more than 1,000 kids and family members and implemented a new session for young adults in conjunction with Saddle Up. They also had its first fall Adventure Camp session and launched Adam’s Camp Alaska. They got help from about 2,000 volunteers who’d spent a week or more at the local Camp and Janet Elway was among sponsors. One Camp parent wrote, “The best thing about Adventure Camp is that it gives a child the opportunity to do camp activities just like other kids. It also creates an environment in which our son is comfortable with who he is and this allows him to interact with similar peers who are on the same developmental level as he is.” Centennial is the home for Adam’s Camp and more information on the group is at www.adamscamp. org or by calling 303-563-8290.

ther admonishing a son who talked too much and didn’t get his chores done. Today, this same yakety yak is driving people to the point of retaliation when they interrupt live performances or movies. It’s rude and lots of folks are taking action or wish they could. No one pays good money to attend a performance to hear background chatter, they are there to enjoy what they’d paid for. Other performance problems include women with the trendy purses that border on being what used to be called an overnight bag. But it’s crammed with laptops and slung over a seat back in tight seating areas and invades the space of others who have to gingerly get passed it to get to their seat or have to sit behind the big bag owner, limiting legroom. Parents regularly bring toddlers or newborns where they really don’t belong, saving money on babysitters. We can’t fault the young ones who get bored and vocal while squeezed into a parent’s seat or an adjacent one that the parents didn’t pay for. Etiquette should be extended not only to adults but to “younguns” as well. Twice in the past month or so, live performers told front row patrons to stop texting. OK, if you get an urgent text, dash out of your seat and reply in the hallway. What else bugs you, readers? Chances are you’re not alone and we’d like to anonymously voice your pet peeve about entertainment etiquette. gloryweisberg@comcast.net

Wildlife Art & Wine draws huge crowd during inaugural event By Valerie LeVier The Wildlife Experience inaugural event, Wildlife Art & Wine, Sept. 28, drew 600 attendees to what proved to be a fantastic fall evening. The event featured more than 40 worldly wines, including local Colorado wines. The night showcased some of the Rocky Mountain Regions finest artists. More than 60 art pieces ranging from sculptures to paintings were on display and for purchase during the evening. Participants were welcome to get creative by painting their own masterpiece at the Bottle & Bottega art table. Guests could enjoy art demonstrations, getting an up-close and personal experience of the creation process, including diverse mediums including scratchboard, clay modeling and painting. An array of delectable tastings, including mushroom risotto with coq au vin, turkey smoked tacos, smoked salmon pâté and an abundance of fine cheeses, made certain no one went hungry. A bronze sculpture by Sherry Salari Sander from Kalispell, Mont., sold at the event, the artist is familiar to Denver audiences. The title of her piece is Summer in the High Country; the subject matter is elk.

By Steven Weisberg he 20th annual Western Fantasy fundraising benefit for the Volunteers of America raised a record amount above the $200,000 level as live auction bidding proved vigorous. Thematically billed as Western Fantasy At The Opry, the event referenced the long running country radio show that was also cited as the longest continuous radio show of all time. Most attendees wore Western attire and the prevalence of cowboy hats among the men strongly contrasted with the absence of headwear one sees in daily life in Denver. Founding co-chair Jean Galloway greeted many of the arriving guests directly, and fellow founding co-chair Sharon Magness Blake made the usual ride through the seated dinner crowd atop Thunder, the white horse mascot of the Denver Broncos. The round up to have attendees sit down for dinner was encouraged by a constantly changing video stream of prior patrons counting down the minutes left, and when the minute arrived, a video presentation began. Master of ceremonies Ed Greene took to the stage and humorously stated “Thank you for that half-hearted applause.” There were more anniversaries noted than you could shake a stick at: 20th annual event, live entertainment Oak Ridge Boys 45th and Lone Star 20th, Lee Greenwood 30th for song God Bless the USA, and even Gov. Hicklenlooper’s downtown brewery, which was involved in the first Western Fantasy. For more information, visit www.voacolorado.org or call 303 297 0408.

J
osna Azim risks all for her cause. She is a true treasure and beacon of light in the darkness of her male-dominated country where women are considered personal belongings She transforms victims into leaders. It’s no easy labor of love. The statistics are staggering. The latest census states the population in Pakistan is 184,644,715. Of that, 96 percent are
Muslim. Two percent are Christians and another 2 percent are other religions. Minorities are considered second-class citizens. Literacy is measured by being able to sign one’s name and little more. Education is not compulsory or free. It is not a priority by any politicians and boys are favored. Children are sent to work. More than 60 percent of young girls have never enrolled in school. There is a scarcity of teachers. Poverty is increasing day by day as the population increases. Utility fees increase while resources decrease. The inflation rate is 200 percent. In March, 200 families lost their homes as Muslim mobs burned them and the police did nothing. The inhabitants had to run for their lives because they followed Christ. Christian persecution is rampant. Churches are attacked by suicide bombers with most victims dying because of lack of medical care. Christian Women’s Development Association directed by Josna has partnered with Women’s Development Association based in Greenwood Village to provide
meaningful life for women and children of Pakistan. The programs transform women living in a dangerous world teaching them skills for survival and ability to provide for a family. Since the year 2000, more than 4,500 have learned to read, write and have basic knowledge of mathematics to raise their standard of living. In addition, they are taught cosmetology and how to produce crafts. CWA is not limited to Christians but encourages others to attend through its spirit and religious tolerance. The modest, talented and welleducated Josna was a gracious and dynamic speaker thanking the audience countless times for prayers and financial support. “My happiest moment is presenting the gift of a certificate to a student after one year of training and the New Testament that she can now read. And, seeing the happy faces of children going to school holding the hands of their mothers,” she said. For more information, and to donate or volunteer, visit www. womensdevelopmentassociation. com.

Creek tennis coach continues suspension By Tom Barry On Oct. 11, Cherry Creek High School’s nationally recognized tennis program earned its 40th state title, attaining the school’s 201st state championship. But one thing that was noticeably different at the state finals at the Gates Tennis Complex was that Head Coach Kirk Price was nowhere in sight. Price has been at the helm of this remarkable championship team for 45 years. It is hard to miss the now 67-year-old tennis kingmaker, as he is robust in all ways with his expertise, coaching style and physical stature. Parents, tennis team members and assistant coaches all said he was suspended right after the season began, but none claimed to know any details. Creek’s acting head coach Art Quinn, who took over in Price’s absence and directed the team’s efforts this season,
did not know of any details either. “I know nothing” was the common answer. “The reason for Price’s leave is not related to students or team activities,” said Tustin Amole, spokeswoman for Cherry Creek School District. “Kirk Price was placed on administrative leave Aug. 26, 2013. He had been coaching in the district since 1969.” Price has been named the national coach of the year twice and was inducted into the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame. He was a math teacher at Creek for 30 years before he retired in 1999 while continuing to head up the boys tennis program. He was also was the Bruins swim coach for 20 years. The district did not provide any timeline of when a final decision might be rendered on the now two-month suspension of Price because it is a personnel matter.

Kent Denver School names Dr. Randal R. Harrington Head of School Horn retires in June after 17 years of service
Kent Denver School announced the appointment of Dr. Randal R. Harrington as Head of School, effective July 1, 2014. Harrington, currently the Assistant Head of School at The Blake School, will succeed Todd R.W. Horn, Ed.D., when he retires in June after 17 years of service. Harrington has been at Blake — a leading independent college preparatory school serving 1,365 students in grades pre-K through 12 in the Minneapolis metropolitan area — since 2003. He previously served as a physics teacher, Chair of the Science Department, and Curriculum Coordinator. Harrington earned a Ph.D. and an M.S. in physics, with a focus on education, from the University of Washington. He also holds a B.S. in physics from the University of Washington and a B.S. in environmental science from Western Washington University. “My wife Kris and I are elated by the opportunity to join the Kent Denver community starting next summer,” Harrington said. “Kent Denver School has a welldeserved reputation as one of the
Dr. Randal R. Harrington top schools in the country with an extraordinary commitment to strong academics and character development. In addition, the school has an authentic commitment to service and enjoys a national reputation for its partnership with Denver Public Schools through Breakthrough Kent Denver. Much of this success is a testament to the leadership of Todd Horn, who is well respected in the independent school world for
his work with other school leaders and his principled approach to school leadership. The school’s exceptionally strong teachers, the newly completed Duncan Center, and the commitment to stay at the forefront of great teaching and learning were all factors in our decision to join the community. We look forward to connecting with all in the Denver area who share our commitment to education.” Horn has served as Head of School at Kent Denver since 1997. During his tenure, the school has seen a 346 percent growth in endowment, a 200 percent increase in annual fund, a 15 percent bump in enrollment, and a 120 percent increase in student diversity. In addition, Horn has overseen several major construction projects, including a science and technology center, a student center for the arts, a LEED Platinum dining hall, two artificial turf fields, and a track. “I am thrilled with the appointment of Dr. Harrington,” Dr. Horn said. “The combination of his intellect, heart, and character make him an extraordinary leader, and he is a perfect match for Kent Denver School.” Visit us at www.kentdenver. org.

Aspen Academy is hosting an Admissions Open House on Saturday, Nov. 2, 10 a.m. – 1 p.m., at the school located on the corner of South University and Orchard Road in Greenwood Village. Aspen Academy is a locally, nationally and internationally recognized independent, junior kindergarten through eighth grade school that emphasizes academic rigor, character, leadership and entrepreneurial development, and community strength and service. The open house is an interactive experience between guests and the collective Aspen community; not just the school administration and faculty, but parents, students and alumni. “Community forms the foundation for our academic curriculum and programs, where the goal is to inspire tomorrow’s great leaders today,” said Lynda Sailor, director of admissions at Aspen.
“Students are taught important skills in order to become great leaders in any situation they may be faced with, and are expected to be able to take on the most important life task: leading themselves effectively.” Three initiatives that highlight Aspen Academy’s unique community include a cutting edge Character and Leadership program, Bear Student Enterprises and the Mentor/Mentee program. Through Aspen Academy’s comprehensive Character and Leadership curriculum, students learn the fundamental characteristics of strong leaders.
“Our students are taught that their individual roles and contributions are vital to their communities, and they are expected to be actively involved in making their communities better places. We extend our curriculum to include areas such as entrepreneurship, financial literacy, civic leadership, social awareness and responsibility, and building personal character and decision-making abilities. Curriculum that we believe is essential to building character and leadership skills,” said Kristina Scala, head of school at Aspen. Guests at the Admissions Open House will be introduced to Aspen Academy’s groundbreaking national model program. The day’s agenda will include talks by Head of School Kristina Scala, Lower School Director Audra Haskins and Middle School Director Katie Becker. Refreshments will be provided courtesy of the student entrepreneurs at the Bear’s Café. There will be activities for the visiting children throughout the school to make it fun for the whole family. Teachers, parents, alumni & students will be available for any questions. For more information, visit www.aspenacademy.org.

Cherry Creek shuts out Grandview 21-0 win on senior night
By Tom Barry Last Friday night was one of the coldest of the year so far, as Centennial League rivals Cherry Creek and Grandview high schools, both with six wins and one-loss records, were ready for the title battle. The game’s 7 p.m. start was delayed for more than an hour due to the prior game between Overland and Smoky Hill running late. Most games take around two hours plus, this game due to penalties. Senior night and delays took well over three hours with Overland prevailing 3922 trouncing Smoky Hill. The Bruins’ senior players along with their families were all smiles before the pregame ceremony to honor athletes at the last home game. The moms were each given small colorful bouquets to mark the occasion. The first half was a defensive battle between the two powerhouses. Creek QB Cameron Brucker con-
nected with a pass to Mikey McCauley, who scored the first touchdown. Creek went into the locker room at the half with seven points and Grandview was scoreless.
Halftime extravaganza
Creeks poms rushed out onto the field to perform some dazzling routines to choreographed music at halftime. Their precise executions and challenging gymnastic movements gained the applause of well more than 1,500 families and students. The Bruins highly skilled color guard and 121 marching band members then took the field for the halftime entertainment, as the support crew – parents and band members –scurried to have everything in place for the grand show. The band marched in precision while playing their respective instruments, as senior Kenzie Schmitt performed a solo to the tunes. Bruins’ Athletic Director Jason

Creek’s Milo Hall once again led the rushing charge with 91 yards; DJ Luke had 49 yards on the ground, while newcomer Nathan Starks had 36 yards. Grandview’s Chukwuma Obinnah led their rushing attack with 19 rushes for 70 yards. In the third quarter, Luke tacked on a TD. Starks took the ball in for another score, as kicker Charlie Scott tacked a third straight extra point after the TD’s.

sort of got things settled down a bit,” said Coach Dave Logan. “It was a hard fought game, anytime you play teams in this conference, honestly there are a lot of good athletes, a lot of good coaches. So, you are going to have games where it’s going to be a good tough hard fought game that’s really what tonight was. Anytime you play Grandview you know it’s going to be a physical game.” Creek plays Eaglecrest Friday.

Creek’s Starks to play in Army All-American Bowl By Tom Barry There was an elaborate ceremony on Oct. 17 at Cherry Creek High School when a team representing the Army’s All-American Bowl recognized Nathan Starks, a new Bruins running back. Starks transferred to Creek for his senior year after leaving Bishop Gorman High in Las Vegas last spring, along with his mother Korey Knotts and brother Noah, who attends Campus Middle School. “Nathan Starks of Cherry Creek High School in Greenwood Village, Colo., has been selected to play in the 2014 U.S. Army AllAmerican Bowl, joining an elite group of All-Americans,” said Dan Romanowski with the Bowl committee. “As a result of Starks being selected to the U.S. Army All-American Bowl, his head coach Dave Logan is invited to travel to San Antonio and attend the U.S. Army Coaches Academy, an elite three-day learning experience, including Bowl Week activities.” The event was held in Trophy Hall at Creek. Nathan’s mom and brother were there, along with his grandmother, Kolleen Kelley, from Las Vegas, his aunt, Mary Kay, and uncle, Mike Kelly, from Summit County. A couple of dozen others, including some football players, Coach Dave Logan, Jason Wilkins, the athletic director, and some staff viewed the event. Starks listened intently as the presenter talked about the honor, behind a bright yellow jersey and helmet like the one he will wear on game day. The top nationally ranked running back recently won a favorable decision by an arbitrator in relation to a Colorado High School Activities Association eligibility issue. The athlete just played in his second game last Friday with his new teammates. Staff Sgts. Andrew Burch and Stephen Allen and Sgt. 1st Class Stephan Sibley, all stationed in Aurora, officially presented a smiling Starks with a yellow jersey that he then put on along with an Army cap. A beaming and proud Starks then took the podium and thanked his mom for all of her support and efforts over the years. Starks is amongst the nation’s top 90 high school football players. He posed for publicity photos with the Army representatives and his family. A plaque was awarded to Creek for display. Korey was presented a plaque for her efforts by Emmanuel Bible of American Family Insurance. The post-season game will be played in the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas, on Saturday, Jan. 4 and will be televised on NBC. “The U.S. Army All-American Bowl has been the nation’s premier high school football game, serving as the preeminent launching pad for America’s future college and NFL stars,” Romanowski said.
