The Explore Issue
Make Life an Adventure
Growing up in Loveland, Colorado, I’ve always felt like our little city holds a kind of magic that’s hard to explain but easy to feel. Maybe it’s the way the sun lights up the sky on a quiet morning, or how the mountains seem to wrap around us like old friends. Maybe it’s the people—the shop owners who know your name, the neighbors who wave as you drive by, or the artists who turn sidewalks, electrical boxes and walls into stories. Whatever it is, for me, it’s always been home. And every July, I’m reminded just how much there still is to explore here.
This month’s issue is all about discovery. Not just in the far-off, wanderlust sense—but right here in our own backyards. As someone who was raised in Loveland and has had the joy of watching it grow and change over the years, I can honestly say some of my favorite adventures have happened just minutes from home.
Exploring Loveland means catching live music downtown on a warm Friday night, hiking a trail you’ve somehow never tried before, or finally stopping into that little coffee shop or boutique you’ve driven past a hundred times. It means celebrating the spirit of summer with our local makers, movers, and visionaries—the small business owners who are pouring their hearts into our community every single day.
Being deeply involved with our town's businesses and local events, I’ve seen firsthand how much love and effort go into making Loveland such a special place to live, work, and play. We are a town full of storytellers, dreamers, and doers. And this issue shines a light on all the ways we can say “yes” to exploring more— whether that’s through travel, trying something new, slowing down, or just seeing our hometown through fresh eyes.
So, here’s my encouragement to you this July: wander a little. Try something unfamiliar. Take the long way home. Talk to a stranger. Visit a hidden gem. Fall in love with Loveland all over again. Happy exploring,

Centerra
A Case Study in Sustainable Placemaking
ARTICLE BY KYLE HARRIS, SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT OF MASTER PLANNED COMMUNITIES AT MCWHINNEY
PHOTOGRAPHY BY CENTERRA, HIGH PLAINS ENVIRONMENTAL CENTER
The vision for the Centerra community began nearly 30 years ago with a piece of land that had been in the McWhinney family for generations; land that would ultimately demonstrate the opportunity for a deeper connection between development and nature.
In the last three decades, Loveland’s population has experienced massive growth, nearly doubling since 1995, according to U.S. Census Bureau data. The city faced the ageold challenge: how do you support growth without losing what makes a place special and sustainable? For McWhinney, the answer was in dedicated and thoughtful master planning. The land could become home to the many people who were attracted to the quality of life here, it could serve economic interests, attracting more businesses and jobs, and it could become a model for how communities evolve while preserving natural habitats through trails, parks, open spaces, areas with native landscaping and wildlife habitats.
The plan for Centerra was set out to guide growth without sacrificing local identity or connection to the environment. Today, it is a thriving ecosystem where conservation, commerce, and community are interconnected.
A MODEL FOR THE FUTURE: SUSTAINABILITY AND COMMUNITY
Over the past three decades, McWhinney and its partners have worked to ensure that every phase of Centerra’s growth reflects a balance between people and the environment. This collaboration ensures that Centerra’s development is proactive and anchored in a set of shared values.
Centerra’s significance as a sustainable community is grounded in the pioneering establishment of the High Plains Environmental Center (HPEC), a nonprofit whose mission is to educate communities to become replicable “living laboratories” that demonstrate restorative examples of land stewardship, native plants, and wildlife habitat. HPEC is responsible for managing Centerra’s lakes and wetlands. The partnership has redefined what it means to integrate nature into urban development.
Today, Centerra is home to well over 500 species of animals and plants, thanks to the stewardship of HPEC, which manages 483 acres of open space and stormwater ponds and three and a half miles of publicly accessible trails. HPEC is embedded in the planning and decision-making processes of the community. As a member of Centerra’s Design Review Committee, Jim Tolstrup, the Executive Director of HPEC, helps shape each new neighborhood and commercial zone.
Its guidance on everything from drought-tolerant landscaping and wildlife corridors to pedestrian-friendly infrastructure ensures that development works alongside rather than in opposition to the natural environment.
Amid growing climate concerns, where growth can too often go hand in hand with eroded ecosystems, Centerra is a hopeful counterpoint. The community is Colorado’s first Certified Community Wildlife Habitat in recognition of our commitment to pollinator protection, native plant gardening, and water-wise landscaping. This is also Colorado’s first sustainable landscape community, designated by the Associated Landscape Contractors of Colorado.
Centerra’s investments in the community go beyond environmental sustainability initiatives. We believe in creating sustainable communities. In partnership with local organizations, Centerra supports and hosts a number of free annual events for the public, fostering a sense of shared responsibility by inviting residents and visitors to engage with the environment and each other. This summer, community events include local favorites like Sounds of Centerra, a weekly live concert series in July at Chapungu Sculpture Park, and Wild Wonderful Weekend, which takes place every year in September.
A regional collaborator, Centerra has given back through thoughtful civic investments, regional partnerships, and infrastructure improvements, from the creation of Chapungu Sculpture Park to partnering to bring forth key transit solutions like the Centerra-Loveland Mobility
HIGH PLAINS ENVIRONMENTAL CENTER (HPEC)
The High Plains Environmental Center (HPEC) aims to achieve a concept it calls Suburbitat, where suburbia and native ecosystems flourish side by side, even as the population in the Front Range continues to grow. As more and more homes need to be built, HPEC believes that individuals can modify how they expand their communities to exist harmoniously with the natural world.

Hub. Centerra’s infrastructure investments total more than $200 million, $70 million of which has benefited the broader region.
A THRIVING, REPLICABLE COMMUNITY
By prioritizing people and the environment alongside progress, Centerra has created a resilient model where success is measured by quality of life. These collective efforts reflect a conviction that economic prosperity and environmental responsibility are not mutually exclusive.
Centerra currently supports more than 8,500 jobs across 150 businesses, and residents and visitors can enjoy retail and dining across 85+ shops and 32 restaurants. Looking ahead, the evolution of Centerra continues with Centerra South, the next phase of planned mixed-use development spanning 140 acres and representing the next chapter in the community’s long-term vision. With plans in its first phase for nearly 900 housing units and 330,000 square feet of retail and office space, it aims to create new jobs, strengthen the local economy, and expand the community’s approach to living, working, and gathering.
The approach Centerra has taken offers a meaningful response to one of the greatest environmental challenges of our era: how to grow responsibly while preserving what matters most. The result is a real-world model where wild and built environments complement each other – one that other communities might learn from and adapt to their own unique settings.
This is what makes Centerra so important; it’s replicable. It’s a proof of concept that sustainable development can be scalable yet deeply rooted in purpose. We don’t have to choose between progress and nature; we can, and must, have both.
EXPLORING AND MANAGING YOUR INTERNAL WORLD

“MANNING” UP
STORY COUNSELING
PHOTOGRAPHY BY MIKE ENSLEY
Everybody wants their man to be a grounding, comforting, path-clearing presence. But what if we’re tapped out? It’s beyond frustrating to deplete ourselves trying to provide for others only to receive disapproving looks and criticism in return. To get out of this exhausting cycle, the first and most important thing to do is to take your energy and stop focusing on what you can't control.
The problem is that we’re fixated on something that’s completely outside of ourselves. This focus is a recipe for running out of resources before you get anywhere.
Here are a few small but pivotal mindset shifts that can help you put what you have where it counts.
In your relationship: “How can I get her to feel/think/say/ stop doing…” is the beginning of many questions men bring to me. But you’ll notice we’re already trying to control her and setting up to lose control of ourselves. What if your job isn’t to make her less mad, exhausted, or disappointed? What if you could sit with, care for, and master the part of you that can’t tolerate it when she is?
Some guys mistakenly think this would mean I no longer care, but it’s surprisingly the opposite. When I can regulate that scared part of me—the part that’s learned to own how other people respond to me—I stay grounded, confident, and kind. I’m empowered to be what my partner needs instead of someone desperate to fix (or escape) their emotional state.
As a father: You can’t control how your kids see you, but you can nurture the part of you that wants to be their hero. The voice that says I’m a failure when they disobey, push back, or give attitude prompts the worst parenting decisions. It’s to that part of myself first that I need to be a kind and patient parent. When shoring up my identity is no longer my kids’ responsibility, I’m free to be what they need in the moment.
In your identity: All men desire respect, and yes, we have to earn it. But some people aren’t prone to give it even when we do. So, what I can do is be loving but firm with the part of me that’s desperate to please. I don’t allow the respect I show myself to be on the line, and I give others permission to choose their attitude.
Under pressure: We all want to be the guy others know they can count on—but you still can’t control the chaos of work or the world. The harsh inner critic demanding you up your game is spinning you out. The kinder you can be to yourself when overwhelmed, disappointed, etc., the steadier you’ll actually be.
“Always bring it back to what’s going on inside you that you need to own. That’s where we first choose if we’re going to be the man.”
Noticing a pattern? Always bring it back to what’s going on inside you that you need to own. That’s where we first choose if we’re going to be the man. That’s where it’s hardest, because you can do everything right and still sometimes lose. But if you build a wise and loving inner life, it will naturally flow into everything you do—win or lose.
SCULPTING LEGACY
ARTICLE BY ADRIANA KARAGOZIAN | PHOTOGRAPHY BY MONICA JEAN PHOTOGRAPHY
LOCAL ARTIST JANE DEDECKER EXPLORES AND HONORS STORIES OF WOMEN
In a quiet studio in Loveland, Colorado, among the hum of memory and the hush of clay, sculptor Jane DeDecker is shaping more than bronze—she is shaping history. With every curve of metal, every delicate gesture immortalized in form, she tells the untold stories of women.
“I am a sculptor. I’ve been an artist my whole life,” she says, her voice steady with purpose and humility.
DeDecker’s work is not merely art—it is a calling, a kind of communion with the past and a gift to the present. “My mom instilled in us that art… it’s like an obligation, you know, to your community to be a creative person and to give back.” That sacred sense of duty pulses through every statue she creates.
At the heart of her current work lies a dream decades in the making: a sculpture of Josephine Baker, the legendary performer, activist, and humanitarian. This vision was planted near Villa Beau Chêne in the town of Le Vésinet, France, where Baker once lived.
“They want to do something to beautify the city,” Jane comments. “We suggested to them… maybe a sculpture of Josephine Baker.”
Though the project took time to gain traction, the spark never dimmed. “We pitched them an idea, and they loved it… so now we’ve just got to raise the money and make it happen.”
The sculpture will depict Baker in her younger years—at the height of her brilliance, her laughter echoing in the jazz halls of Paris, her soul dancing in every step. “I think one of the happiest parts of her life was performing…. She was a force.”
DeDecker understands the power of capturing a single moment—a glance, a touch, a memory—in solid form. “One of my favorite pieces is a man tying a child’s shoe… it just sort of honors that simple moment.”
These fleeting, human gestures become timeless under her hands. Her love for history is deeply rooted in her curiosity about and desire to explore the inner lives of women.
“I just love delving into how they thought and how they would have reacted to certain things,” DeDecker shares. “There are those pivotal moments in your life where… you kind of hone in on who you are as an individual.”
Sculpture becomes her medium of empathy—her way of stepping into another’s soul, of offering their story back to the world with reverence. DeDecker’s connection to women runs far beyond the figures she sculpts. It reaches into her community, her friendships, and her family.
DeDecker fondly refers to one of her friends, Norma Hammond, a poet. “She’s been such an advocate for me…. She does so much for the city that she’s a huge inspiration for me.” She also names Sojourner Truth, Abigail Adams, and most tenderly—her mother.
The sculptor admits she wasn’t the greatest student in school, joking that she probably would have been diagnosed with ADHD. But DeDecker recalls that whenever she left for school, her mother would encourage her to “make something beautiful today, Janie.”
Those words from her mother, simple and shining, became a mantra—a compass guiding her through a lifetime of creation. “She just loved being an artist… not a professional artist, but she instilled in us an artful life.”
And as Jane passes that spirit down to her own children, she carries her mother’s voice in her heart. “She said, ‘Janie, you’re going to do a lot of things, but the most important thing you’re going to be is a mom.’”
The sculptor’s legacy is not only in bronze or stone. It lives in gestures of mentorship, in donations to local auctions, in art drives for homeless youth. “We just did an art drive for the Landing, the homeless youth shelter… putting art supplies in their hands.” She gives herself and her artistic talents to the community time and time again because that is the rhythm of her life: receive beauty, return beauty.
Her beloved hometown of Loveland has been both soil and sunlight in her story. “I’ve kind of been here even before the art community was even a thing… and so watched it grow and blossom.” Here, with her husband and four children, she roots her work in love and memory, each sculpture a branch reaching skyward. “It’s kind of like farming…. You plant these little seeds and they come to fruition.”
As the Josephine Baker project gathers momentum, DeDecker remains grounded, faithful to the spirit of storytelling and reverence. “I always feel it’s important to honor… ask the families and the descendants… if I can have their blessing.”
For Jane DeDecker, sculpture is not a spectacle—it is sacred. It is memory given form, it is love molded into permanence. And in her hands, history does not fade—it stands tall, luminous, and everlasting.
“MY MOM INSTILLED IN US THAT ART…IT’S AN OBLIGATION TO YOUR COMMUNITY TO BE A CREATIVE PERSON AND TO GIVE BACK.”
Refreshing, Cool Mocktails
BLEM! SUMMER SOBRIETY NEVE
The Love Shack is northern Colorado’s first sober bar, which has been a pop-up mocktail bar since 2023 until the end of this past April when it started operating out of a shared space in downtown Loveland. Lyssa Nightclub offered The Love Shack the opportunity to conduct business on their closed days: Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays. Hän Cassera, the owner, has been sober since 2022 and started the business in hopes of creating a safe, sober space for himself and like-minded people to connect, dance, and have fun without the presence or pressure of alcohol. A DJ for the last 13 years, Hän realized at the beginning of his sobriety journey that there was a lack of establishments that even served non-alcoholic options, and therefore, didn't provide alternatives that were completely booze free.
