Jail expanding into the future Medical building has focus on mental health, drug issues By Hannah Garcia
hgarcia@coloradocommunitymedia. com With completion set for later this year, Douglas County is busy finishing up remodeling and expansion projects for its jail. The implementation of a medical services building is one of the more significant additions to the detention facility in Castle Rock, a response to a rising population of inmates with mental illness, medical needs and drug addictions. “If they end up here, and we can’t help them, they get out and do it again,” said Holly Nicholson-Kluth, administrative services bureau chief for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. On March 11, county commissioners approved funds totaling $136,727.54 for the Robert A. Christensen Justice Center medical building network equipment and book-
ing area remodeling projects. The whole venture is projected to cost $25 million and is on schedule, according to the DCSO. The entire expansion project began in August 2012. The expansion project also includes a parking garage, which was completed in November, to ease overcrowding in the front court lots and reduce safety issues with police vehicles. The county is also remodeling facilities, like cells and showers, to be more compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The new medical building will include new beds and dorms for inmates on suicide watch, an ambulance port, hospital beds and exam rooms, dental care facilities, mental health resources and glass barriers for better line of sight, according to building plans. It is expected to be complete in June, Nicholson-Kluth said. Once completed, the new facility will cut down on funds and safety issues that accompany bringing an inmate to a hospital, Jail continues on Page 8

Children’s theater still on agenda Castle Pines group didn’t get expected city funding for 2014 By Virginia Grantier

the four scouts in Troop 2518 started, and Murray supported, to get the claret cup cactus named the state cactus. Murray performed her piece Jan. 31, with prepared music, on third reading — which is typically staid and formal, she said. It was part of her attempt to get fellow lawmakers to vote for bill HB14-1024, designating as the state cactus this particular plant that has large reddish-orange flowers that are loved by hummingbirds, and is edible. It also has a spineless version, and it’s
Castle Pines Arts and Cultural Foundation didn’t get the $5,000 it was expecting for 2014, when the Castle Pines City Council voted 4-2 to deny funding after expressing concerns about the organization’s lack of fundraising. But Joan Millspaugh, foundation board president, who is a retired nurse and 17year resident, said plans for this year’s three events are still on — including bringing in Missoula Children’s Theatre in July. Millspaugh said the foundation still has money. The foundation, started in January 2013 and given $6,000 in seed money from the Castle Pines City Council, ended 2013 with almost all of it, $5,900, because of a profit of about $1,500 made from a livemusic and supper event at Cherokee Castle and Ranch. That covered the organization’s 2013 start-up and administrative costs, she said. Millspaugh said the foundation was hoping for the additional $5,000 this year to help the foundation start a savings account for future purchases of outdoor art, as well as giving the group some additional money to fall back on in case this year’s events don’t do as well as expected and they lose more money than anticipated. She said as far as the council’s concern about lack of fundraising, the board is working on getting its 501(c)(3) status so they can pursue grants. That has been slow going because of unanticipated problems

Girl Scouts’ prickly idea wins at Capitol It’s a rap: Rep. Murray takes center stage for state cactus By Virginia Grantier
vgrantier@coloradocommunitymedia. com A 6-inch-tall cactus was the reason why state Rep. Carole Murray — a longtime conservative who usually focuses on education reform and other titanic issues — was up in the middle of the night recently penning an ode to the cactus and turning it into a rap
song. To percussive, strongbeat accompaniment, it started off like this: “Those girls from the ‘Rock’ just came to me and said, `Hey, Rep. Murray, this can’t be…’” “It literally came to me Murray in the middle of the night,” Murray said in a recent interview about her lyrics. The “girls,” are Girl Scouts, the “Rock” is Castle Rock, and all this was an effort that

Kids want town to be all smiles Experiment spreads good energy through Castle Rock By Virginia Grantier
vgrantier@coloradocommunitymedia. com In Castle Rock these days, within town boundaries, people who smile are targets. Dare to smile at someone and you could get something: a thank-you card — to then pass along to the next smiling person. About 75 cards are now floating around Castle Rock, part of a school project called “Castle Rock Connects Through Smiles Experiment” that goes on through March 31. It was the idea of Beth Moreau, teacher and office administrator of Woodlands Academy, 1057 Park St. Moreau, who also heads up the 300-member Castle Rock Cruisers swim team, said the project is an attempt to encourage people to smile, connect with people and help keep the town’s small-town atmosphere. She said she moved to Castle Rock 23 years ago when it had 8,000 people and had a “very small-town feel.” Moreau said it was typical then for her to strike up a conversation with people in the grocery store, but some of that has been lost in this now much-bigger town of about 50,000. She said she thought up the smiles project after she was leaving a grocery store recently and a woman smiled at her. “It was so nice to have that connection,” Moreau said. “I decided I wanted to have something to pass that feeling along,” an acknowledgment when someone smiles and something to encourage them to pass that along. So on Valentine’s Day, students and staff were given several cards to give to people when they smiled at them. The card encourages the smiling person to put their initials and age on the back and then pass it along to the next person who

smiles at them. Everyone who is holding a card on March 31 is asked to return it to the school so students can count up how many smiling encounters there were in that time period. The card states in part: “Woodlands Academy students are using this experiment to get individuals to connect and feel like a part of the bigger picture. We hope to confirm that Castle Rock is a community of caring people.” Students shared in a recent interview how important, in general, being smiled at was to them. Jenny Johnson, 11, a sixth-grader, said after her grandma died she was really sad and was in a grocery store when a woman
smiled at her. “It brought joy to my heart.” Sophia Caramazza, 13, an eighth-grader, said she was feeling bad about herself one day when a lady smiled at her and “it made me feel better.” Kailani Pico, 10, said her friend was moving away and she was really sad, so when someone smiled at her she felt better. Maxfield Hohn, 11, a sixth-grader, said he liked the project because it helped him to “spread the small-town feeling across Castle Rock.” The students, helped by their parents, found smiles in various places — the movie theater, store, church, even the dentist office.
In the cards they passed out, about twothirds of the people were women, fewer men. Students commented in a recent interview they think the project has resulted in their smiling more than before. Moreau explained that Woodlands Academy, which combines core knowledge and experiential learning, is a place for kids who are often given busy work by teachers while they try to help the rest of the class — kids characterized as highly motivated, if not gifted, students who love to learn. Cardholders are asked to return to the cards to the school, 1057 Park St., on March 31. For more information, call 303-8148582.

Laws tighten state’s marijuana regulations Packaging standard aims to safeguard kids from pot By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Gov. John Hickenlooper signed two bills into law on March 17 that tighten regulations on marijuana sales and aim to make it more difficult for the drug to be consumed by children. House Bill 1122 will require that medical marijuana that is sold in edible form — such as pot brownies or cookies — is wrapped in opaque packaging that does not create an “attractive nuisance” for kids. The law seeks to prevent incidents where children accidentally eat pot-laced edibles, which can sometimes result in emergency room trips. “Child-resistant packaging is required for things like Tylenol because it works,” Hickenlooper said during a Capitol press conference. “You should have no different standard for marijuana.” Regulations that the Legislature put into place last year as a result of the 2012 passage of Amendment 64 — which legalized recreational pot use in Colorado — already include strict packaging requirements for retail sales. This law sets that same standard for medical marijuana sales. Hickenlooper was joined by Dr. Sam Wang, a pediatric emergency room physician at Children’s Hospital Colorado. Wang said there has been an increase in the number of children who are hospitalized due to accidental ingestion of marijuana. “Symptoms vary quite a bit, anywhere from mild symptoms, a little bit of sleepiness, but we’ve had some severe cases where children have actually had an inability to breathe adequately, requiring tubes,” Wang said. The bill also gives retail marijuana store owners the ability to confiscate a fake ID
‘Everybody came together on this and our kids will be better, safer and kept away from marijuana as a result.’ Rep. Daniel Kagan, D-Cherry Hills Village from a person younger than 21 who attempts to buy the drug. Additionally, the bill increases penalties for those who are caught selling marijuana to minors. “Everybody came together on this and our kids will be better, safer and kept away from marijuana as a result,” said Rep. Daniel Kagan, D-Cherry Hills Village, a bill sponsor. Hickenlooper also signed Kagan’s House Bill 1229 into law, which will allow local jurisdictions to submit fingerprints of those applying for a retail marijuana license to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. Hickenlooper said the law will bar “bad actors” with criminal records who try to gain access to the retail pot industry. Sen. Linda Newell, D-Littleton, a Senate sponsor of House Bill 1122, said legislators will continue to examine laws that regulate the newly created marijuana industry, as more becomes known about the industry. “This is probably not the last time you will hear from us because we will probably find these cleanup bills as we go through the years, after marijuana … has become a norm in Colorado,” Newell said.

Suicides spur alumni to act Garden variety 5K organized on April 6 to demonstrate support for teens By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Kate Muus was a 16-year-old Douglas County High School student when she lost one of her friends to suicide. The Castle Rock resident now is the mother of a 2-yearold, but her heart is still with the students at DCHS. Four Douglas County teens were lost to suicide between Jan. 31 and Feb. 11 — a number equal to the total of teen suicides in 2013. Two of them were DCHS students. Muus and some of her fellow alumni were moved to action by the deaths. Together, they’ve organized the DC Proud DC Strong 5K run/walk, set for 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. April 6 at Butterfield Park, located in Castle Rock’s Meadows neighborhood. “As alumni, there was this feeling that we need to help these kids,” Muus said. “This is mainly to get the community together and show support for our students.” In addition to the run/walk, participants
will be able to talk to booth vendors representing Douglas County youth groups and activities, church groups and mental health facilities and support groups. In addition to hosting the 5K, Muus said she and the approximately 25 others hope to mentor at-risk Douglas County youths. “This is not something we want to be a one-time, flash-in-the-pan kind of thing,” she said. “We want to be inclusive of all the schools in Douglas County, and we want this to be continuous. “It’s scary to think that kids feel so alone. Our goal is to show them we all felt that, and show them what amazing things have happened since then. We don’t have much except that we want to help kids know they don’t have to go down that path, and that there is a huge community behind them.” Registration includes a suggested donation of $35, with a minimum $1 donation. Proceeds will benefit the Second Wind Fund, which provides low-cost counseling to children and youth who are at risk for suicide.

Kiwanis Club of Castle Rock recently donated $3,100 to fund loaner hearing aids to Douglas County schools for kids whose families can’t afford them, according to a news release. The hearing aids are used just in the schools. This is an ongoing Kiwanis project, but new this year is software and a tablet/laptop that converts the teacher’s voice to text, which can then be stored for future review. This makes it easier for students, who in the past have had to watch a sign-language interpreter and take notes at the same time. There are about 55,000 students in Douglas County. Of them, 40,620 kids have been screened for hearing difficulties and 288 have educationally significant hearing loss. For more information, visit www. kiwanisatcastlerock.org.

Kiowa man killed in Douglas County plane crash Wreck kills 53-year-old male pilot, ignites two-acre grass fire Staff report The Douglas County coroner identified a Kiowa man as the pilot killed in a small plane crash in northeastern Douglas County. Gregory Dirk Pelley, 53, died after his twin-engine plane crashed in a field, about 100 feet from a home near Otero Drive and Phillips Place, shortly before 5 p.m. March 19. Coroner Lora Thomas said Pelley died
from multiple blunt-force injuries. The fiery wreckage sparked a grass fire that grew to two acres before being contained by four different fire agencies. Investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board and Federal Aviation Administration were at the scene March 20 combing through the pieces of the plane. The tail of the aircraft, with a registration number clearly visible, was the largest intact part of the plane. The crash occurred near Inspiration Drive and Piney Lake Road, about a mile away from the site where another small plane hit the ground in August 2012. The pilot of that plane survived.
Fake cop pulls woman over, real police believe Man was driving black pickup truck with colored lights By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Parker Police Department is searching for a possible police impersonator who pulled a woman over on a busy road in the middle of the day. Investigators have ruled out traffic stops by the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, Colorado State Patrol and nearby agencies after a woman was pulled over at 10:30 a.m. March 19 on South Parker Road near Pine Lane. She told Parker police that a man in a black pickup truck with flashing red and blue lights accused her of speeding and asked for her personal information. The location and time of day of the incident have alarmed authorities. “I can’t speculate on his intentions, but it was a pretty brazen act if it wasn’t an officer,” said Dawn Cashman, public information officer for the Parker Police Department. The possible impersonator is described as a “clean cut” white male in his late 30s to early 40s, standing 5 feet 11 inches to 6 feet tall and weighing 180 to 200 pounds. He has short sandy brown hair and a goatee, and was wearing blue jeans, a black jacket and a blue or gray T-shirt. The woman also saw a large silver toolbox in the bed of the truck and an extension ladder that stretched from the truck bed over the cab. Detectives are hoping the public can shed more light on the suspect and want anyone who has experienced similar contact to come forward with information. The woman wasn’t going to report the incident until she later told the story to a friend, who convinced her to go to police, Cashman said.
Motorists driving past the scene at that time are also being asked to contact the police at 303-841-9800. The silver toolbox and extension ladder, possibly yellow, are identifying characteristics that residents might recognize as belonging to a friend or neighbor, she said. Investigators are eager to talk to the man to determine his intent. “We don’t want any other criminal acts,” Cashman said. The penalty for impersonating an officer was raised from a misdemeanor to a felony after Fort Collins resident Lacy Miller, 20, was kidnapped and murdered in 2003 by a man posing as a police officer. Using red and blue lights is a class 1 misdemeanor. The recent stop is a reminder of a 2010 case in Castle Rock in which a woman was driving on a busy road and was sexually assaulted. A man was later arrested and charged. Police have a particular dislike for the latest impersonation case because it “undermines law enforcement,” Cashman said. The possible impersonator, whose red and blue flashers were at the top and bottom of the windshield, did not issue a ticket and instead gave the woman a warning about speeding, she said. It is “scary” that the victim provided her information, Cashman said, but there are tips to help avoid direct contact with a suspicious person. Cashman said motorists who believe they are being pulled over by a fake cop should call 9-1-1 and turn on their hazard lights. Dispatchers can determine whether it is a legitimate officer following. Motorists should drive to a gas station or well-lit parking lot and only slightly roll the window down. The person being pulled over can request that the officer send a marked patrol car, and tell the officer that they are on the phone with police to confirm their authenticity. Impersonators will typically flee immediately if they know real officers are en route, Cashman said.

Revenue forecast looking good TABOR technicality could give pot tax refunds to taxpayers By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Colorado’s economy grew stronger in 2013 and that momentum is expected to continue through the coming years, factors that will contribute to a state general fund budget for next year that will exceed original forecasts, state economists said on March 18. But not all the news that came out of the Legislature’s Joint Budget Committee briefing was rosy. While much of the state is doing better post-recession, other areas continue to struggle. And lawmakers lamented the continuing budget challenges that come as a result of the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights — including a TABOR problem involving marijuana tax revenue that the Legislature may end up having to deal with soon. The JBC was briefed on Colorado’s economic outlook by the state’s budget director and staff from the Colorado Legislative Council. Their reports are an essential component for the committee to consider when they craft the state’s spending plan — a budget that is expected to be about $20.5 billion.
decide. The voters have decided, and their wishes may be frustrated by something hidden in the TABOR amendment.’ Sen. Pat Steadman, D-Denver While the economists’ revenue forecasts differed slightly, they all agreed that Colorado’s economy is on healthy footing. “Over the past year, household wealth has grown because of increases in home prices and recent gains in the stock market,” said Louis Pino of the Legislative Council. “As a result, consumer spending has improved, especially on big-ticket items like furniture and vehicles. U.S. corporations continue to post strong profits, the equity market posted its best gains in years, inflation remains benign and the global economy, especially in the Eurozone, appears to have turned a corner for the better.” The budget forecast for the 2014-15 fiscal year will be $61 million higher than what was originally predicted.

fund, about $75 million will be left over for bills that are currently waiting to be appropriated — an “up-for-grabs” amount that is certain to lead to battles among lawmakers in the coming weeks. Priorities for that money include helping flood and wildfire victims and more funding for K-12 and higher education. After that, there is a guessing game as to which of the many bills that have yet to be appropriated become funded. “There are a lot of competing priorities within the budget, so as we’ve said from the start we have to be prudent in how we allocate the resources of the state,” House Speaker Mark Ferrandino, D-Denver, said the day after the forecast was released. “We are not going to be able to pass every idea and bill through the Legislature.” The state’s general fund budget for the next fiscal year is expected to be $9.2 billion, higher than the current fiscal year’s revenue projection of $8.8 billion. Driving the healthy economic forecast is a 27-week streak of consecutive job growth and a state unemployment rate that is currently 6.1 percent. While the unemployment rate has dropped, “the state’s labor market added jobs at the fastest rate in seven years,” according to the Legislative Council. Meanwhile, wages and salaries grew 4.7 percent last year and personal income is expected to improve during the 204-15 fiscal year, economists said. The current fiscal year will also yield a general fund surplus of $257 million, most of which — about $170 million — will be transferred to the State Education Fund. Funding for education will increase through the annual School Finance Act and accompanying bills aimed at pumping more money into K-12 and higher education. Those dollar amounts are still being negotiated. While the Denver metro area and much of the Front Range is experiencing economic growth in many areas, other parts of the state aren’t faring as well. For Colorado Springs, Pueblo and the Western Slope, including Grand Junction, growth has been “sluggish,” according to Louis Pino of the Legislative Council.
As for marijuana tax revenue that is coming in as a result of Proposition AA, $54.7 million will be pumped into the 201415 fiscal year. But while that revenue amount is less than what was originally projected by Prop AA proponents, the state may end up having to cut refund checks to Colorado taxpayers for that money. A TABOR technicality may require the state to issue pot revenue refunds — even though voters intended for money that’s collected from marijuana tax money to go toward school construction and the cost of pot industry regulations. TABOR is generally thought of as a statute that requires all tax hikes be approved by the voters. But the technical clause also includes an area that requires the state to issue tax refunds when state spending exceeds expectations that are included in voter information material that is sent out each election, otherwise called the “Blue Book.” That seems to be the case this year, and lawmakers are trying to figure out how to deal with it. “This is confounding,” said Sen. Pat Steadman, D-Denver. “TABOR told us to let the voters decide. The voters have decided, and their wishes may be frustrated by something hidden in the TABOR amendment.” Lawmakers could issue refunds for the marijuana tax money or they may end up having to go back to the voters to ask if they can keep it — something for which the voters already gave permission. Ferrandino said it is likely that the Legislature will deal with this issue before the session is out. The concern over marijuana revenues isn’t the only TABOR-related monkey wrench that lawmakers have had to deal with this session. They ran into problems with flood recovery money because counties wouldn’t be able to take state reimbursements, out of concern that the money would cause them to hit their TABOR spending limits. The state will instead fund the money through different means. Those issues caused JBC members to rail against TABOR. Rep. Crisanta Duran, D-Denver, the committee chairwoman, said TABOR has caused the state “major problems” that has tied budgets into “fiscal knots.” And one Republican said the recent TABOR issues have caused her to change her perspective on the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights. “I have to tell you, quite honestly, the more I learn about TABOR, particularly what it did to the floods and our counties, the less and less I like it and the more insidious I believe it’s been to state government,” said Rep. Cheri Gerou, R-Evergreen.

dUnder-21 smoking ban fails in committee
Opponents argued that adults at isshould make own decisions n AA,

less Prop Legislation that would have banned the hav-sale of cigarettes to people younger than 21 tax-died in a House committee on March 19.
The bill received support from those e thewho believe that smoking is a societal ill evenand who want to see more done to keep hat’scigarettes away from youths. to go But the effort fell one vote short of passost ofing the House Finance Committee, on the
heels of testimony from witnesses and comstat-ments from lawmakers who felt the legislaovedtion went too far in dictating decisions that alsoadults usually make for themselves. te to g exd in t out Blue
“I come down on the side of treating 18to 20-year-olds as adults,” said Rep. Daniel Kagan of Cherry Hills Village, the only Democrat to vote against the bill. Now, it’s legal for peope who are age 18 to purchase cigarettes. The bill would have raised that age to 21, although it would have provided a grandfather clause for people who are 18 when the law would have gone into effect. In defending the effort, Rep. Beth McCann, D-Denver, a bill sponsor, cited testimony from anti-smoking advocates, who said that smoking-related illnesses cost governments millions of dollars in health spending each year. “The harm is not to just those who smoke; the harm is to all of us,” McCann said. McCann also said that “the military is
taking a pretty aggressive view of smoking,” telling committee members that armed forces branches have introduced antismoking programs aimed at curbing soldiers’ smoking habits. But Brian Soule, a combat veteran from Colorado Springs, told the committee that he found the bill “insulting.” Soule cited the names of soldiers who became war heroes before the age of 21 and asked why lawmakers would question their ability to make decisions for themselves. “To say that these people cannot make good decisions about what’s good for them is pretty insulting to a lot of great Americans,” Soule said. Others who testified in opposition to the bill said that businesses, particularly convenience stores, would be hurt by the legislation.
State revenue would also be affected. The bill’s fiscal note indicates that the state would have lost about $925,000 in tobacco tax revenue for the 2014-15 fiscal year, but the revenue losses for the following fiscal year would have been about $3.7 million. But money isn’t the only thing, argued bill supporters. “There would be a short-term fiscal hit, but in the long term, it will help us,” said Rep. Mike Foote, D-Lafayette. Kagan joined all six Republicans on the House Finance Committee to vote against the bill, many of whom made similar arguments against the legislation. “We’re creating a large case to where most 19- and 20-year-olds don’t feel like they’re actual adults for a myriad of reasons,” said Rep. Kevin Priola, R-Henderson.

which can cost upwards of $1,500 a day, according to the department. “When we bring a prisoner to the hospital, we have to sit and watch them 24/7,” said Sgt. Ron Hanavan, sheriff’s office spokesman. “There’s always a chance for an escape attempt and it can be dangerous for hospital staff.” The project is a culmination of sorts of a decades-long effort to meet needs of a jail population with rising trends of inmates with mental health issues and drug addictions. Since the 1990s, the county has been adding courtrooms and expanding detention services to keep up with the growth of the county. “We need to make sure when they (inmates) leave, they’re not worse off,” Undersheriff Tony Spurlock said. From 1998 to 2006, the county jail population grew at a historic
March 27, 2014 rate, according to the DSCO. After the financial crisis hit in 2008, total inmate numbers inexplicably dropped nationwide although the population of inmates with mental health issues began to rise, Nicholson-Kluth said. Out of the current jail population in Douglas County, about half need some kind of mental health treatment, she said. The number of female inmates has also trended upwards. “We started realizing that the mental health facilities were not sufficient,” she said. “People can be dangerous. If they are unprotected and without medication, we don’t know what they’ll do.” The expansion is funded by a 0.43 percent sales tax that was approved in 1995. Out of the base of those sales-tax payers, about 65 percent are non-residents, Nicholson-Kluth said. “Ironically, the prison population is about 60 percent non-residents, so that ended up working out,” Nicholson-Kluth said. The entire project will conclude in November, NicholsonKluth said.

prevalent — so its celebrity status as state symbol shouldn’t hurt it, if everyone wants one in their rock garden. The state’s House and Senate liked the bill, maybe the performance, as well, and passed it. And Gov. John Hickenlooper signed it into law March 7. It’s been explained that Murray took the musical route she did in part because she thought the Girl Scouts might find the process more interesting. She also did so because a fellow lawmaker, known to wax poetic at times in the House, lightheartedly suggested that if Murray would “pen an ode to the cactus” he might be more inclined to vote for the bill. Before this vote-getting performance, there had been months of research and work on the Girl Scouts’ part, said troop leaders Claudine Phibbs and Jean Medberry. “They worked really hard and learned a lot about the legislative process,” Medberry said. And there was a lot to learn: Girl Scout Megan Phibbs, 11, said recent-

with finding expertise to do that — and with the loss of two board members. Millspaugh said the foundation was first established as the Castle Pines Arts Commission, the idea of former city councilmember Doug Gilbert. Warren Lynge, who had spearheaded fundraising to create the city’s current library, was picked as commission president, and most of the prospective board members he recommended to council and who were later approved were also people who had worked on the library effort. Millspaugh said in January 2013 the city council — after hearing the group’s request for financial support for 24 to 36 months while it pursued getting 501(c)(3) status — approved the group’s proposed business plan, which included $6,000 in funding. She said a couple city councilmembers recently expressed shock that the foundation still didn’t have its 501(c) (3) status, thinking the city was helping to do it. She said the foundation ended up
ly her only experience with a cactus before the project was, “I sat on one once.” Troop members pursued this to try to earn, which they did, a Silver Award, one of scouting’s highest honors that has to do with leadership, finding a community need and working with the larger community to meet the need. While studying the state symbols, they found out Colorado didn’t have a state cactus and decided to work on that. Douglas County CSU Extension Office referred them to cactus experts at the Denver Botanic Gardens. Murray set up a meeting with the experts at the botanic gardens through her daughter, Rachel Murray, who works there. And they guided the scouts toward the best cactus for the job. Texas has a state cactus, but it apparently chose what experts consider to be a weed — the prickly pear. The troop decided that wouldn’t do for Colorado. Murray said she helped the scouts through the legislative process and they even testified in front of committees. Murray said some may think state symbols are silly, but she thinks when people look at state symbols they point out various things about the state maybe not known. She
thinks the cactus points out this is a semi-arid state, serves as a reminder of the state’s “wide diversity” and the importance of water conservation, and “represents the Western tradition of our state.” Just for fun, the troop, all four girls — Paige Ferguson, 12, Aspen Medberry, 11, Megan Phibbs, 11, and Jocelyn Tweddle, 11 — also brought in cactus cupcakes. Little carrot cakes with green-colored frosting that looked to have a cactus on top — really a marshmallow, that was covered with green frosting and frosting “spikes” to look like cactus spines. Never was there a thought about a carrot-cake and stick approach, about bringing in food for the wrong reasons. “It was just for fun,” said one scout. It should be noted the cupcakes reportedly were delicious and the House Committee did get the cupcakes before voting. However, the Senate Committee didn’t get theirs until after voting. And on the bill’s signing day, Hickenlooper was all smiles — as he was photographed holding a cactus cupcake.

not getting that type of help from the city, adding that the group’s efforts to get nonprofit status were stymied from the start. Millspaugh said board members were directed to Linda Michon, Castle Pines’ city attorney, to get help from her law firm in getting through the 501(c)(3) process. But she said when Michon’s firm told them it would cost $2,500 to do that work, board members thought it was “ridiculous,” too expensive. She said Mayor Jeff Huff then suggested a person who ended up not having the expertise. Then hurting things further, the foundation lost two board members, she said. She said they decided to complete the application on their own with the pro bono help of a Castle Pines resident who is an accountant, and much of the work has been done by Sarah Tweed, a board member. They expect to file the paperwork within the next two weeks. Millspaugh said the foundation’s first Cherokee Castle event in 2013 sold out with 150 attending, making about $1,500 after expenses. Another project, a Christmas ornament, netted $185. The other event, the winter solstice event at Elk Ridge Park, was the
only money-loser, but only a $45 loss. The 2013 profit was wiped out, though, by start-up and administrative costs, she said. “We have enough to cover activities. We hope to get more funding to continue doing programs as long as we can.” Millspaugh said the foundation has signed a contract with Missoula Children’s Theatre, which will be in Castle Pines from July 14-19. It also plans to be involved in two other events this year: another livemusic and supper show at Cherokee Castle and Ranch and a summer solstice event. Millspaugh explained that the foundation will be in partnership with the nonprofit Cherokee Castle and Ranch to bring in Missoula Children’s Theatre at a cost of $6,226, which includes renting a building and promotions. Both organizations expect to lose about $850 each, she said. The board also expects to lose about $200 for this year’s summer solstice event, but hopes to make money again on the Cherokee event like last year. “We feel we’re great stewards of the money,” she said.

To Jon Adams, bringing stability and a sense of calm to an emergency situation is “the greatest thing in the world.” Most people wouldn’t last two minutes in his position. But Adams has become proficient enough to be named South Metro Fire Rescue’s “Firefighter of the Year,” an honor not taken lightly by the 17-year veteran of the fire service. He received the award during a ceremony March 8. Adams doesn’t directly fight fires or rescue people trapped in cars. Instead, he is the guy who stands on the sidelines, continually evaluating and weighing the risks involved with each operation. As a safety officer, Adams monitors radio traffic from command staff and instructs personnel accordingly. For all of the jobs that require split-second decision-making skills, his is arguably the most important. And there are always variables. “We have a set playbook — our standard operating guidelines — but you can’t write a policy for everything we go on,” he says. “It’s a fine balance. We know what we do is risky, but the risk we’re taking is worth the benefit.” The Centennial resident has worked scenes of unspeakable tragedy; he responded to New York City days after the 9/11 terrorist attacks to shore up debris to allow for victim recovery. He also went on a 30-day deployment to the Gulf Coast after it was ravaged by successive hurricanes — Katrina and Rita. Most recently, he served as a safety officer for the Black Forest fire and the Boulder-area floods. Every deployment has been voluntary. Emergency response is a constantlyevolving discipline. Adams joined Colorado Task Force One in spring 2001, not knowing what was to come. Now he and his colleagues must be prepared for everything from school shootings to terrorist attacks to hazardous material spills. Adams also leads continuing education courses for South Metro’s veterans and newbies. Like a professional athlete, he and his team routinely gather in the morning to watch footage of emergency responses from the day before. They diligently take notes while observing “how the incident went based on their tactics,” he says. An on-scene video created during a

massive house fire in Parker last year went viral. A fellow safety officer was credited with avoiding a disaster when he ordered all firefighters out of the home minutes before a major collapse. Departments nationwide have sent notes thanking South Metro for making the “lessons learned” video. “It highlighted what we’re all about,” said Adams, who is based out of South Metro’s Joint Services Facility in Parker. Aside from the support of his colleagues, Adams, 37, says there is another team just as critical to his success: his wife and three kids. Their patience and understanding, he says, is immeasurable. Born and raised in Colorado, Adams always knew he wanted to work in a team environment. At first he thought it would be as a surgeon, but he decided he didn’t want to be in school for that long. Then, as an athlete at Arapahoe High School, he wanted to be a professional baseball player until a coach told him to turn his focus elsewhere. One EMT class at Arapahoe Community College later, he was hooked. “I made the best choice: to take care of people when they don’t know what to do” he said. “It’s a lot of pressure, but it’s fun. After 17 years, everything I’ve done prepares you for that.”

A bill that Democrats say would boost turnout in future recall elections passed a Senate committee on March 21, following a party-line vote. The bill seeks to marry existing election statutes with language in the state Constitution. The two are at odds when it comes to the recall election process — something that was apparent during last year’s historic legislative recall elections. The Constitution states that a candidate has up to 15 days prior to Election Day to submit enough signatures to appear on a recall ballot. The Democrat-sponsored bill would require candidates to submit signatures 15 days prior to when ballots are made available to voters, which occurs long before the actual day of the election. This became an issue in September, when county clerks handing recall elections in Colorado Springs and Pueblo weren’t able to mail ballots in time, which resulted in elections where voters could only vote in person, the day of the election. Democrats say the bill would give citizens more opportunities to vote. But Republicans blast the measure as unconstitutional. The bill passed the Democrat majority Senate State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee, on a 3-2 vote.
Emergency pet care bill signed
Gov. John Hickenlooper on March 20 signed a bill into law that will allow emergency medical providers to provide medical care to house cats and dogs. Medical personnel who respond to emergency calls to homes were prohibited from providing care to domestic animals prior to the bill signing. Although EMTs
provide that assistance any way, they risked litigation by the pet’s owner if something happened to the animal. The bill was sponsored by Sen. David Balmer, R-Centennial, and Denver Democratic Reps. Beth McCann and Lois Court.
Felony DUI legislation moves forward
A bill that would create a felony DUI penalty in Colorado cleared its first legislative hurdle on March 18. House Bill 1036 would let prosecutors charge a driver’s third DUI in seven years or any fourth DUI as a felony. Right now, drivers only face misdemeanor penalties when driving drunk, no matter how many times they are charged. Colorado is one of only six states that don’t have a felony DUI on the books. The bill — which is sponsored by Republican Reps. Mark Waller of Colorado Springs and Lori Saine of Firestone — passed the House Judiciary Committee with unanimous support. A similar effort failed last year.
Bill would allow armed guards at charters
Charter schools would be allowed to hire armed security guards, under a bill that received unanimous support in the House on March 21. House Bill 1291 — which is sponsored by Reps. Mike McLachlan, D-Durango and Stephen Humphrey, RSeverance — allows charter school guards to carry concealed weapons on campus, so long as they have a valid permit. The bill is a re-crafted version of a Humphrey-sponsored bill that died earlier this year, which would have allowed any school employee with a concealed carry permit to bring a gun on campus.

opinions / yours and ours
Yesterdays are just that, yesterdays It has been a while since I shared a quote or thought from my mentor Zig Ziglar, and as I prepared for this column I was reminded of something that Mr. Ziglar used to remind us of all the time. He would say, “We cannot make any more yesterdays, but we can make all of the brand-new tomorrows that we possibly can.” I was thinking of this because I found myself in the “woulda, coulda, shoulda” trap as I thought about the ways I handled things over the past 12 months, opportunities I might have missed, activities I wanted to pursue and challenges I needed to overcome. Have you ever been there? We ask ourselves things like, “Why didn’t I say this?” or “Why didn’t I do that?” “Life would be so different if I only did things differently.” And many other such statements and examples. Zig used to also say: “Failure is an event and not a person. Yesterday really did end last night.” So when we can separate our-
selves from what we could have or should have done or said, and realize that tomorrow is a brand-new day, our entire view of the world would shift. Optimism and hope would replace our regret and fear. Tomorrow is filled with promise. Tomorrow is filled with hope. We are in control of how we see our future and what we choose to do in the pursuit of our life goals, our careers, our relationships and our health. Tomorrow has distanced itself from yesterday when it comes to our errors, poor
‘No problem’ really means ‘no thought’ I have a problem with “No problem.” I have a big problem with “No problem.” The only time someone says “No problem” is when there is a problem. The same goes for “No worries.” I’d like to get rid of both of them. They mean nothing, and are generally said as a casual dismissal. Let’s try to think of something else to say when something unexpected happens, or when something doesn’t go on exactly as planned or when something has been done on someone’s behalf. Almost anything would be better. Try these. Instead of “No problem,” perhaps you could say “A wet bird does not fly at night,” or something else that is vaguely Zen. Instead of “No worries,” how about “Breathe deep the gathering gloom”? Anything but a generic cliche. I am having a big problem. Arrangements were made for someone to be here on Monday to pick up some extra large paintings, drive them into Denver, and install them in three new showhomes. At the last minute the project coordinator asked if we could reschedule everything for Wednesday. I said possibly not. Then we were able to agree on Tuesday. In the midst of all of this, of emails and phone calls, trying to reach the outfit that will pick up the paintings, and the installer, she said, “No problem.” I let out a yelp. I closed my eyes. I drank from Smitty’s water dish. I ordered pillow cases I don’t need. I vacuumed the parrot. I booked a flight to Ithaca. I ate macaroni without cheese. I listened to “Teddy Bears’ Picnic” on repeat. I watched Bill O’Reilly and kept a straight face. I don’t have any original thoughts. Just when I think I do, I will hear something or read something that matches identically with my thinking. Someone somewhere wrote about vacuuming his parrot today. I decided to do a “No problem” search, and sure enough, others have the same dislike for it. The New York Observer columnist Kristen Richardson wrote, “I’ve come to believe that `No problem’ is a seemingly benign expression run terribly amok, to the point of destroying what vestiges of civility we have left here at the beginning of the 21st
century.” Richardson did a search too, and called Deborah Tannen, professor of linguistics at Georgetown University. Tannen said that a general casualization of language is responsible for the expression. Tannen said that “No problem” is dismissive, overcasual and makes light of a favor. Then I found out that “No worries” is the preferred expression in Australia and New Zealand. Language takes millions of hits every day. They are called “tweets.” I have yet to tweet. I plan to get out of here without ever tweeting. I am not going to waggle a finger, but the truncation of language into some kind of abbreviated drivel is for the unwashed. I am glad that Charles Dickens didn’t live to hear “No problem.” Oliver goes up and asks for more? And the master says, “No problem”? There’s no chance of that. Dickens manicured his thoughts and expressions, and I will never let that go, or give in to what goes around simply out of carelessness. Am I a language snob? Absolutamente. Muttering fractions of words and exhaling generic expressions is fine when you are lifting a car off of a teenager. The rest of the time I want to hear wording that follows thought and does not precede it, or is thrown at a situation because it has been before, and it’s handy. There’s someone who is stationed at the self-checkout at my store. Without looking up, she invariably says, “Have a good one.” I take that as a question, and always say, “I do.” Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

judgment and mistakes. Tomorrow offers encouragement and builds upon the successes of our yesterdays. When was the last time we took an inventory of all of the great accomplishments, achievements, and goals where we exceeded our own expectations? Looking at past successes builds confidence and serves as a launching point for our next journey and path forward to greatness. So we talked about yesterdays, and we talked about tomorrow. What about today? What can we do today to remember or successes of yesterday, learn from and overcome our prior mistakes, and ensure that our tomorrows are filled with hope, encouragement, opportunity and achievement? Mr. Ziglar talked about the fact that we cannot create any more new yesterdays, but we can create all of the brand-new tomorrows of our life. And it starts with today. We can actually create the next brand-new 30 seconds of our lives, the next brand-new five minutes, the next new
hour, and all we have to do is start. We can start to let go of the past or build upon our past, and the choice is ours. Today, as you read this column, think about where you are. Think about your own story — are we still living in the glory days or many years ago? Are we living and feeling the hurts of yesterday? Or are we placing our stake in the ground today and committing to our future, the best and brightest future that is waiting for each and every one of us? Life is a series of choices. Are you choosing to live or learn from your yesterdays? Are you planning today for your successes of tomorrow? Either way, I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail. com, and when we plan today for greatness tomorrow, it really will be a better than good week.

letter to the editor Survey needs to reach parents, non-parents
Efforts by some members of the Douglas County School District are encouraging the school board to renew a community survey. If the intent is to demonstrate displeasure on the direction the school board is going with their reform efforts, reaching all stakeholders needs to be done or data collected will not be valid. The majority of registered voters in the district (70 percent) are non-parent taxpayers and via last election those 70 percent may have had an impact on the outcome. The board should encourage individual schools to do a survey that would be sitespecific seeking direction on their needs. A few questions could be added to the survey concerning overall perception about reform efforts by the district. Individual schools need to seek input from the entire school community and not just parents. Schools send kids into the street with their fundraisers and having surveys delivered door to door in their neighborhood that could be mailed back might be one approach to reach all stakeholders. I don’t agree with special interest groups controlling policy makers in this country, but the reality is that this is a common practice at the national level and it has hit the local level. Even though the last election wasn’t won by an overwhelming majority of support, we are still a democratic society where majority rules and the vocal minority needs to accept the results and move on. This divided community is impacting the education of the kids and both sides

DCSD, Gardner lead way in energy efficiency
It seems like energy issues are at the heart of every discussion these days. Recently, Douglas County School District teachers and students got to host Congressman Cory Gardner to discuss the district’s energy efficiency efforts. With the help of local energy services company McKinstry, DCSD has become a national leader in measuring and reducing its energy consumption — from classroom lighting to our heating and cooling systems. While efforts have been financed through the millions in savings we have realized, they have been led by students and teachers engaging in energy issues through hands-on learning. This issue has national implications, and if every school district in the country implemented similar measures it could save over $1 billion in energy costs and prevent untold pollution. It sounds like Congressman Gardner has been engaged in energy efficiency issues in Congress as well, with his Energy Caucus helping the federal government measure and reduce its energy waste. We believe these efforts represent winwins for government, the private sector and taxpayers, since as Mr. Gardner stated, “the cheapest energy is the energy we don’t use.” Lee Smit Sustainability manager, Douglas County School District

Knee Arthritis Pain: One HUGE Mistake And Two “Smart Moves”
Doctor’s Simple Advice Gets Rave Reviews By Patients Lucky Enough To Give It A Try By Matt Edgar America’s Health Writer
El Paso County - Have you been told that exercise will help your knee arthritis pain? Well... has it helped? If it hasn’t, one local doctor has a very good reason why. Not only that - he says if you are trying to exercise with knee arthritis - you might be making a HUGE mistake. Sounds crazy? Yes it does. In fact, I thought it was a ridiculous thing to say. That is until I talked to some of his patients who gave him rave reviews. Many said he completely changed their life. When they first came to the office, their knee arthritis pain was so bad they could barely walk and were scheduled for total knee replacement surgery. In a relatively short period of time, they cancelled surgery and are enjoying their lives again. Why is exercising a HUGE mistake and what does this doctor recommend that is helping so many knee arthritis sufferers who come to see them from all over the state? His name is Dr. Swanson MD. Dr. Swanson is a Medical doctor and head of arthritis treatment at Osteo Relief Institute in Colorado Springs, CO. Double Edged Sword Dr. Swanson says that exer-
cising with knee arthritis is a double edged sword. It is true, your knee joints need motion to be healthy. And lack of motion can be very detrimental. Without motion joints become “sick.” And in theory exercising should help knee arthritis. But here is the BIG problem: Knee arthritis is condition that dries up the lubricating fluids in your knee. It also changes the joint surface and creates bone spurs. Because of these changes - exercising on an arthritic knee can cause more swelling, more pain and more arthritic changes. Imagine driving your car without any oil. What happens? The engine parts scrape together and wear out. You can’t simply drive your car more and make it better. And in many cases - you simply can’t just exercise your knee and make it better, either. What’s the answer? In a car it’s simple - put in more oil. And then make sure the oil level is correct and it is changed when necessary. With your knee joints - it is a little more complicated. The major lubricating fluid in your knee joint is called synovial fluid. Synovial fluid is the fluid that “dries up” when you suffer with arthritis.
Making Knee Arthritis Pain Worse: Research has discovered that people are suffering with arthritis much younger than expected. Making the right treatment choices now can possibly stop the progression and eliminate the pain.
But there is good news: Now doctors can inject one of the building blocks of synovial fluid directly into your knee joint. This building block of synovial fluid is called hyaluronic acid. And when hyaluronic acid is injected directly into the knee joint, many experts believe it helps lubricate the joint. Some say it is like squirting oil on a rusty door hinge. This allowed the knee joint to glide more smoothly and often reduces or even eliminates pain.
And here is the most important part: Now that the joint is lubricated and can move with less or no pain - specific exercises can be a tremendous help. That’s why the doctors (when patients qualify) treat knee arthritis patients with hyaluronic acid injections FIRST and then prescribe a very specific rehabilitation and exercise program specially developed to help knee arthritis pain. This comprehensive knee arthritis pain program is called, “P.A.C.E.” and has been getting wonderful results. So what is the HUGE mistake? If you suffer with knee arthritis and are exercising and the pain is either not getting better - or getting worse - you may be making a mistake. You may actually be making things worse. And that’s the last thing you want to do. What are the two “smart moves?” If you have knee arthritis pain, look into viscosupplementation with hyaluronic acid. In many cases treatment with hyaluronic acid followed by a specific rehabilitation or exercise program can get results when everything else has failed. In fact, it is not uncommon to get pain relieve just from the hyaluronic acid treatments alone - without doing any rehabilitation or exercising at all. And the results can be dramatic. If you are thinking about giv-
ing hyaluronic acid treatments a try - this is VERY IMPORTANT: In our opinion the doctor you choose should use advanced imaging technology such as fluoroscopy to guide the injections and make sure the hyaluronic acid goes where it is supposed to. Laser guided digital imaging is one of the best technologies to guide injections. Research shows that without fluoroscopy, doctors miss the joint space up to 30% of the time. Obviously, if the joint space is missed - the treatment cannot work. If you have already had viscosupplementaion without this advanced imaging technology and it did not work - you may want to give it another try with a doctor who uses this cutting edge technique to get the best results possible. So, if you suffer with knee arthritis pain, talk to a specialist about viscosupplementation with hyaluronic acid especially if exercise is not working or making things worse. And make sure the doctor you choose works in a state-of-the-art medical facility and uses advanced fluoroscopic imaging (Like laser guided digital imaging) to guide the injections to make sure the treatments have the best chance to work. For more information on viscosupplementation for knee arthritis or to get a free screening to see if this treatment is right for you, one of the specialists at Osteo Relief Institute can be reached at 719323-6612.
Knee Pain Treatment Craze In Colorado Springs After thousands already helped knee pain suffers face 48 hour cut off to get risk free screening for incredibly popular treatment
(ORI) - The clock is ticking. There is only 48 hours to go. If you suffer with knee arthritis pain and would like to get a risk free knee pain screening to see if the experts at Osteo Relief Institute in Colorado Springs, CO can help you with their extremely popular knee pain relief program read this right now. Here is why: For the past several years, the experts at Osteo Relief Institute have been literally swarmed with knee arthritis sufferers looking for relief. Nearly all these knee pain sufferers chose Osteo Relief for one reason - their top-notch knee pain relief program featuring viscosupplementation with hyaluronic acid and specially designed rehabilitation program. The Secret To Success? The experts at Osteo Relief Institute believe one of the biggest reasons for their success is the fact that they have some of the best technology money can buy. Laser Guided Digital Imaging The clinic uses extremely advanced imaging equipment that allows them to see directly into the knee joint that they are treating. This advanced imaging is called, “Laser Guided Digital Imaging” and many experts believe is the difference between success and failure with this knee pain treatment. And probably the best thing about this technology is that is has allowed the experts at Osteo Relief Institute to get results with knee pain when so many others have failed. What Is This Treatment? This treatment is viscosupplementation with hyaluronic acid (HA). Those are big medical terms that basically means this... When you have knee arthritis - the lubricating fluid (synovial fluid) in your knee joint dries up. This means instead of gliding smoothly - your bones start to rub
and grind against each other. This causes a little pain in the beginning - but over time the pain steadily gets worse until it is excruciating. Hyaluronic acid works so well because it is like “joint oil.” It is a natural substance and is one of the natural building blocks of the synovial fluid that lubricates your knee. Scientists and researchers discovered this natural building block to synovial fluid in the rooster’s comb - that big red thing on top of the roosters head. It is extracted from the roosters comb, purified and concentrated. When it is injected directly into your knee joint, it is like squirting oil on a rusty door hinge. Hyaluronic acid allows your joints to glide more smoothly eliminating a lot of the rubbing, grinding and pain. Why You Should Try This Even If You’ve Already Had Similar Treatments Without results... “We have been able to help so many knee pain sufferers - even many who have already tried other injections like Synvisc, Supartz, Orthovisc and even Hyalgan. We use special and very advanced low-dose video fluoroscopy imaging called “Hologic Digital Imaging” so we can see right into the joint. This allows us to put the Hyaglan exactly where is needs to be. Studies show doctors doing joint injections without fluoroscopy miss the joint up to 30% of the time.” said the director of Arthritis Treatment at Osteo Relief Institute. Osteo Relief Institute is a state of the art medical facility offering only the best technology. And that’s not all - Osteo Relief Institute has a complete knee relief program called “P.A.C.E.” to make sure you get the most pain relief and the best possible results from treatment. “Every case is individual.
lief Institute can only accept a limited amount of new patients each month for this screening. And because of the demand, we can only guarantee you a spot if you call within the next 48 hours. If you are suffering in pain - make the call right now so you can make your appointment today. Why not take 20 minutes for your risk free screening to discover how you may be able to end your knee arthritis pain? So call 719-323-6612 right Successful Treatment - Hyalgan Failed Treatment - the injection now and find out if the exbeing precisely injected directly into (and Hyalgan) misses the joint the knee joint using Hologic digital perts at Osteo Relief Institute space.

Education-funding efforts advance Highlands Ranch High One bill would boost per-pupil money By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Colorado’s long-underfunded public school system would receive an additional $300 million in funding and increased perpupil dollars, under a pair of school finance bills that cleared a House committee on March 19. However, the battle over how those dollars are to be managed — and whether the funding will be enough to appease vocal superintendents — is just getting started, as the education budget process began to play out at the Capitol last week. This year’s K-12 school funding efforts seek to provide a badly needed infusion of resources to school districts across the state, through a bipartisan education funding bill and the annual School Finance Act. “This is our very best attempt at making sure we start making progress from some very difficult financial years,” Rep. John Buckner, D-Aurora, told the House Education committee. The School Finance Act would increase per-pupil funding by 2.8 percent, which would allow that funding to keep up with inflation. The bill also provides $17 million for preschool and full-day kindergarten. Immediately before the bill received committee approval, the same committee gave the go-ahead for a separate, bipartisan school funding measure. The Student Success Act would provide millions of dollars for school programs and would replace some of the education funding that had been a casualty of budget cuts in recent years. The bill — which received House sponsorship from Reps. Millie Hamner, D-Dillon, and Carole Murray, R-Castle Rock — would give schools $200 million in additional funding. That sum includes $20 million for reading programs and about $30 million for programs designed for English language learners. “They are some of our most vulnerable
and neediest populations of students,” Hamner said. The money would also buy down the socalled education funding “negative factor” —recession era education funding cuts that total about $1 billion. The bill would provide $100 million for the purpose of backfilling some of those cuts. The bills are a way for the Legislature to provide more money for schools on the heels of last year’s failed school finance tax measure, which voters soundly rejected in November. An increase in education funding is a top priority for lawmakers and Gov. John Hickenlooper, given the state’s upbeat economic forecast, which was recently presented to the Joint Budget Committee. But this year’s K-12 funding efforts are not going to please everyone. School superintendents and other education advocates are asking for more money for the negative factor buydown than what the Legislature expects to provide. School district leaders have also voiced displeasure over an area in the Student Success Act that seeks to change how pupils are counted for the purposes of a school’s official enrollment — something that districts say is a waste of time and money. And there have been arguments over school districts’ lack of autonomy over how the money will be spent. The funding will have stings attached, which doesn’t please opponents who say that the Legislature shouldn’t dictate how districts use that money. “I’d like to restore the negative factor to the best of our ability with no strings attached,” said Rep. Chris Holbert, R-Parker, the only member of the House Education Committee to vote against the Student Success Act. “I think that has been a clear message from our school districts.” Hamner acknowledged those concerns, but said that it’s important to realize that the state can’t get in over its head. “We just have to balance all these needs with what the state budget can really commit to over a period of years,” she said. The bills now head to the House Appropriations Committee, prior to receiving full votes in the House.
School shifting schedule Backtracking will improve student access to teachers By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia. com Following Mountain Vista High School’s lead, Highlands Ranch High School announced it also will return to a more traditional class schedule in 201415. The move away from a block schedule will give students less free time and more access to teachers for one-on-one help. “Our staff approved it by 92 percent,” Principal Jerry Goings said. “It was overwhelming support.” Mountain Vista announced a similar schedule decision earlier this month. At least three other Douglas County high schools also are considering a schedule reversion. Forecasted budget increases that will enable schools to hire more teachers are prompting the conversations. Per-pupil funding has increased about $280 since the block schedule’s implementation in 2012-13. Nevertheless, Goings said, switching the schedule requires careful budgeting. “It costs more money to run (the more traditional schedule) so our budget is tighter,” Goings said, “but cutting down some of the free time for our kids, making sure that when they have that time our teachers are available for academic assistance and advisement — we’re very excited about what that can do for kids.” HRHS’ 2014-15 schedule will be a modified version of the 5-of-7, so-called because it requires teachers to teach five out of seven class periods. Most Douglas County high schools have been on the 6-of-8 schedule for the
last two years. Under it, students have fewer classes per day but meet for longer, 90-minute periods than under the 5-of-7 schedule. It also required all high school teachers to teach an additional class. “Teachers and staff and administration were all running like crazy trying to keep this going, yet the kids had all this time,” Going said. “We were trying to find a way to get them to use it effectively, but we just didn’t have time to do that.” Some schools, like HRHS, also sacrificed the open advisement period under the 6-of-8 schedule to guard against the loss of any additional class time. Under next year’s schedule, “Kids will not have as much free time, but the trade-out for kids is, now you have an off-period when teachers have an off-period, so you can get help,” Goings said. The modified schedule — similar though not identical to Mountain Vista’s proposal — still retains some of the longer block periods that allowed for deeper exploration of subjects and longer labs. “We sort of found the best of both worlds,” Goings said. “There’s no perfect master schedule for high schools. “The weakness is class sizes do go up a little.” HRHS will hire about five more teachers to shift the workload and put the new schedule in place. “Teachers are excited about it,” Goings said. “The main reason is they think we can develop a system that’s better for kids.” Rock Canyon High School Principal Andy Abner is gathering feedback from staff, parents and students. He expects to reach a decision in early April. ThunderRidge and Chaparral high schools also reportedly are considering a schedule change.

First-grade teacher hooked on change Mountain Vista senior Sand Creek educator gives kids more control By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com As a self-proclaimed perfectionist, Sand Creek Elementary first-grade teacher Robin Schumacher admits she’s uncomfortable with change. But opening herself up not only to change but to mistakes proved contagious; her students felt comfortable trying something new as well. From there, things snowballed — all the way to an Apple Award. Schumacher won the Elementary Teacher Award during the annual Douglas County School District event, held March 1 in downtown Denver. “I’ve stepped out of my shell a little bit lately and been a bit of a pioneer with my first-graders this year,” the 32-year-old said. “I’ve been changing a lot of what I’m doing, so it’s not like your typical brick-andmortar classroom. I’m helping them build their skills, so they’re more in charge of their learning.” Schumacher challenged her students to use a software program called Toon Boom to create movies about natural resources. “We’re trying to get our kids to show what they know while they’re learning,” Schumacher said. Using the animation program
Sand Creek Elementary first-grade teacher Robin Schumacher won the 2014 Elementary Educator of the Year Apple Award. Photo by Jane Reuter “was easy for older kids, but I didn’t know if first-graders could do it.” The teacher at the Highlands Ranch school said the movies her students made were nothing short of amazing. Seeing how they responded to that challenge inspired Schumacher to continue setting goals she previously wouldn’t have considered. That included
more group work. “You’d be surprised which kids really step up when I don’t give them the answers,” she said. “It’s sometimes my shyest and quietest kids that are taking that leadership role.” They’ve even stumped the teacher. During a discussion on U.S. symbols, one student asked how many pennies it would take
to cover the Statue of Liberty. “We researched,” Schumacher said. The answer? “One billion, 366 million, 777 thousand and 110 pennies.” “When I’m letting them work in the collaborative groups, I’m getting a lot more questioning. It’s cool to show them I don’t know all the answers, but we can find the answers.” Born into a family of teachers, Schumacher never doubted her calling. She grew up in Lakewood, graduating from the University of Northern Colorado. In 2006, she started teaching at Sand Creek. But she stuck to traditional teaching methods initially. “I did what was comfortable,” she said. “Sitting in front of a group reading a book, you learn the facts and repeat them to me — that was what I grew up with, too. “Now, I try to pose a question to everything they’re doing. It puts a spark behind what you’re doing.” When she’s not teaching elementary school, Schumacher and her husband teach kindergarten Sunday school at Harvest Bible Chapel in Cherry Hills Village. She’s also an avid fisherwoman who enjoys Colorado’s outdoor scene. But her favorite place is in the classroom. “I love teaching,” Schumacher said. “I could not see myself doing anything else. My heart is with kids.”
receives press honor Co-editor named Colorado student journalist of year By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Mountain Vista High School’s journalism program continues to gain recognition. Senior Taylor Blatchford, co-editor of the program, was named Colorado High School Student Journalist of the Year by the Colorado High School Press Association. She also won the 2014 Dorothy Greer scholarship. Taylor now will represent the state at April’s Journalism Education Association National Student Journalist of the Year competition, held in San Diego as part of the National High School Journalism Convention. “It’s been a pretty special year for sure,” said Blatchford. The school’s Eagle Eye newsmagazine earned the 2013 Pacemaker Award from the National Scholastic Press Association. And its adviser, Mark Newton, last month earned an Apple Award from the Douglas County School District for his work with the student journalists. “I think I’ve been lucky to have all these different experiences and be in such an amazing program,” Blatchford said. Unlike most of her fel-
low journalism students, Blatchford plans a career in the field. “It’s something I think I could never get tired of doing because it’s different every single day,” she said. “The possibility for telling so many different people’s stories just fascinates me. “By the time I’m getting an actual job in journalism, who knows what new forms of media will be available to tell those stories?” As a high school journalist at MVHS, Blatchford said she’s been able to experience a wide variety of journalism, including photography, web and print design. She’s most proud of a multi-element piece compiled in the wake of December’s Arapahoe High School shooting that included comments from MVHS students connected to the incident. “It was a challenge to cover that in a good way,” she said. “It wasn’t my longest piece, but I was proud of how it turned out.” Newton had strong praise for Blatchford. “Taylor is one of the very best student-journalists I’ve ever had in 29 years of advising student media,” Newton said. “Her skills are solid, she works harder than anyone and, most importantly, she has a fearless approach to gathering information. She sees opportunities and takes them. She challenges herself. She is quite deserving of this recognition and award.”

sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia. com To fully appreciate the newly installed stained-glass windows at Our Lady of Loreto Catholic Church in Foxfield, one should visit at various times of day and in different seasons, when the changing sunlight will create new effects. Officially blessed at a Mass on March 16, the 16 recently installed works of art were created by artist Scott Parsons and fabricated by the century-old Derix Glasstudios in Taunusstein, Germany. They are collectively called The Heavenly Jerusalem Windows and each has a distinctive story to tell the viewer. Installation of the round and rectangular windows in the handsome Romanesquestyle church was made possible by an anon-

We were told that because the church also operates a school, the three bronze sanctuary doors are locked during the week, but a large door labeled Main Door is open and an attendant is there, who can grant admission to the sanctuary. It is open for Masses, with times listed on the website. 303-766-3800, OurLadyofLoreto.org. ymous donor, according to Msgr. Edward Buelt, who founded the parish and worked closely with the artist on the spiritual symbolism in each individual design. The windows are stained glass with colors painted on, versus the leaded glass windows we are accustomed to. They are filled with dazzling colors and occasional touches of gold, applied to the hand-blown glass panels in patterns that include both representational images and more sweeping abstract images. Angels, the elements, sunlight and vegetation — all imaginatively presented. Parsons, who was born in Littleton, has an MFA in painting from CU-Boulder — with graduate work in archaeology — and is chairman of the art department at Augustana College in Sioux Falls, S.D. He has been creating public art, including liturgical art, for 20 years. Several years ago, Parsons, a Lutheran, worked with the Derix studios on stained glass windows for Gloria Dei Lutheran Church in Sioux Falls. In Denver, he is represented by the prestigious William Havu Gallery and has work installed at the National Cable Television Center and Museum at the University of Denver and at

Our Lady of Loreto’s western facade is inspired by the Basilica of St. Ambrose in Milan, Italy. The eight-sided dome has five circular windows supported by laminated red oak pillars, which represent trees. The central, east-facing window depicts the Lamb of God, with blood flowing from the pierced heart and clear blue water. Alpha and Omega symbols are copied from Botticini’s “Assumption of the Virgin,” seen in Washington’s National Galleries, according to an explanation by Msgr. Buelt on the church website, where images of all the windows can be seen. Round windows symbolizing each season are next on each side, and opposite the lamb is The Celestial Denver window, which brings the series home to its location. A columbine (an ancient symbol of the Holy Spirit) is in the center, backed by an image of the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception and mountain peaks, with an image of Red Rocks Amphitheatre to the side. Ten clerestory windows portray God’s nine ranks of angels and one dedicated to St. Michael, Prince of Angels, according to Msgr. Buelt’s text. Each has its distinctive colors and symbolism: Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones, Dominions, Virtues, Powers, Principalities, Archangels, Angels and St. Michael, the Archangel. The dramatic images are swirling and abstract representations of spiritual beings. Their interpretation is based on theological work of St. Thomas Aquinas, according to a story in the Denver Catholic Register, saying he cautioned against representing angels in human form. The artist said they are represented by breath, wind, fire and water. We would urge art lovers, regardless of religious affiliation, to see these really unique examples of liturgical art—made for the 21st century.

sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Scene I of David LindsayAbaire’s “Good People” opens in a trashy South Boston alley behind the Dollar Store — the only private office space that store manager Stevie (John Juracheck) can find to tell Margie (Dee Covington) that he’s letting her go. Seems she’s late every day — always with an excuse that she can’t leave her disabled adult daughter alone — and Stevie’s boss has said “enough!” “How about trying Gillette?” (a large manufacturing plant for razors). Stevie says he’ll ask his brother who works there. Margie rages and whines, claims it’s because she’s paid above minimum wage and in no way takes any blame. There’s a disconnect from the start with any sort of work ethic — she talks about luck, or lack of it. This is a play about class differences, with wry twists by Lindsay-Abaire, who grew up in South Boston and understands the territory. Dee Covington has the speech and mannerisms of her character, Margaret, nailed. As do her neighbors Jeanie (Leslie O’Carroll) and plain-spoken landlord Dottie (Kathryn Gray). They commiserate with her and try to think about a solution to her dilemma. They are “good people.” Jeanie has just seen Mike (Michael McNeil), an old boyfriend of Margaret’s, at a din-

Not quite a jolly old elf `Rumpelstiltskin’ staged at Denver’s Mizel center By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com For the 17th annual Denver Children’s Theatre production, the 2014 choice is “Rumpelstiltskin,” as adapted by Mike Kenny from the Brothers Grimm fairy tale. Performances are at the Mizel Arts and Culture Center at the Jewish Community Center.

McBride is joined for this play by local choreographer/dancer Terrell Davis, due to the extraordinary move-
IF YOU GO “Rumpelstiltskin” plays through May 2 at the Mizel Arts and Culture Center at the Jewish Community Center, 350 S. Dahlia St., Denver. Performances for school groups are at 10 a.m. on specific weekdays, plus 1 p.m. Sundays for the public (except April 20). Tickets $8/$9/$10, 303-316-6360, maccjcc.org/Denver-childrens-theatre-rumpelstiltskin ment requirements in Kenny’s version. Performances are at 10 a.m. on selected weekdays for school groups 5 years through grade 6, and at 1 p.m. on Sundays for the public. Readers will remember the story about the miller (Brian Landis Folkins) who tells the king that his pampered daughter (Adrian Egolf) knows how to spin gold from straw. When the king finds his treasury is pretty much depleted, he takes the miller up on
his boast and leads the daughter to a room filled with piles of straw, which makes her frantic. The elfish little man Rumpelstiltskin (Rachel Graham) appears and offers to spin the straw into gold in exchange for her firstborn child after she becomes the princess who marries the prince. Also in the cast: Lindsey Pierce as the queen and Missy Moore as Mess. A curriculum guide is distributed to all participating teachers, keyed to academic standards for reading, writing and communication; social studies; dance; music; drama; and theater arts. Optional “Encore!” programs ($10) are offered following the 70-minute performance. Workshops are led by arts educators (often actors from the production) with discussion and specially designed theater activities.
It’s an apropos name for the main attraction at an upcoming show at Parker’s top performing arts venue. The Unlikely Candidates, an up-and-coming indie-rock band enjoying increasing airplay and exposure at large festivals, is stopping by the Parker Arts, Culture and Events — or PACE — Center April 25. And it’s not just younger generations reaping the benefits of the visit. Some of the proceeds from the concert will go toward Parker’s creative arts district, which is headed by a motivated steering committee of residents, business professionals and elected officials.

The PACE Center has traditionally booked music acts long past their heyday, but still touring and able to draw a nostalgic crowd — acts like Air Supply and Spyro Gyra. It has yet to host a band with a young following. Mariner characterized the booking as a “fun risk.” “It’s a younger audience we know, but they’re a very popular band right now,” Mariner said. The timing lined up perfectly, with schedules for both the band and the PACE Center surprisingly being open April 25. The show has been orchestrated by Don Mack, a longtime Parker resident and member of the creative district’s executive committee. “It was Don’s idea. He’s a very active volunteer,” Mariner said. “The executive committee is really kind of grabbing hold and moving (the district) forward in a giant leap this year.” Mack says he’s hoping to help create a “real sustaining vision” to raise capital and develop the downtown area into an arts mecca. If successful, he says the Unlikely Candidates show could be a “stepping stone” to a larger annual festival that builds recognition and draws people to Parker. Viretta, a four-piece alternative-rock band whose members attended Chaparral High School, will be the opener, Mack said. The Town of Parker is donating the use of the facility to benefit the creative district. The district steering committee is having a public meeting at 5:30 p.m. March 26 at the PACE Center to recruit new members and discuss projects and plans.

Former chef cooks up cancer-fighting foods Pam Braun maps path to wellness through healthy diet in cookbook By Sonya Ellingboe
Photography + Pop Rock
sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com In 2004 California writer Pam Braun was told she had late-stage cancer. Doctors predicted a 15 percent chance of survival and 75 percent chance of recurrence. The former chef and restaurant owner, like many, underwent recommended treatments, but she also did more. She started an ongoing research project on foods and their relationships to cancer and because of it she stayed well. She emphatically states: “some foods have been scientifically shown to help prevent certain cancers and other foods have been scientifically shown to help Braun cause certain cancers.” She adds that women have a one-in-three chance of developing cancer and men and newborns a one-in-two chance in their lifetime. Her own diagnosis began with lymphoma and moved to latestage fallopian tube cancer, which she beat initially, and then followed through ongoing research on foods as a way to prevent recurrence. Braun will appear at 7:30 p.m. March 28 at Tattered Cover, 9315 Dorchester Street in Highlands Ranch, to introduce her beautifully-produced new book, “The Ultimate Anti-Cancer Cookbook” and talk about her upbeat approach to living well.
CURTAIN TIME

“35 MM: A Musical Exhibition” is a multimedia musical by Ryan Scott Oliver, based on photographs by Matthew Murphy. It will be presented by Ignite Theatre from April 11 to May 4 at the Aurora Fox Arts Center, 9900 E. Colfax Ave., Aurora. It’s directed by Keith Rabin Jr., with music by Jason Tyler Vaughn. Performances: 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 2:30 p.m. Sundays. Industry Night is April 14. Tickets: $27/$19 student.720-362-2697, www. ignitetheatre.com.
`Spamalot’ She says that representatives from the Colorado Ovarian Cancer Alliance will also be present to talk about early warning signs. The book is printed on heavy paper, with fine photographs of the fruits, vegetables and breads she advocates, as well as commentary on preparation and appealing recipes. It should offer helpful ideas to patients and those who cook for them — as well as those on a preventative path. Most recipes contain a good many ingredients, but Braun offers a page on her idea of pantry basics, which would be a place to start, followed by a weekly shopping trip. There are lists of foods to avoid (red meat, salt, processed meats, sugars, fats… nothing the reader hasn’t already heard, but all in one place here.) And there are lists of foods to seek out, of course, which should
make Braun’s route to health seem easy and appealing. Appendices at the back give references to specific studies, specific beneficial contents in a given vegetable, herb, spice or fruit, etc. She says that since she works, she spends several hours on Sundays preparing soups, casseroles, salad ingredients for the week ahead, both refrigerating and freezing servings for future use. She begins her book with a section on breakfasts, from which we share a stuffed French Toast. She follows with all the standard cookbook sections — except the ingredients include her own whole grain breads; fresh herbs and vegetables and fruits; beans and grains, extra nuts and careful preparation methods. (Think a main dish of Curried, Bulgurstuffed Zucchini, Roasted Vegetable Salad or a dessert of Grilled Fruit Kabobs with Chocolate.)

bald statement a
St. Baldrick’s fundraiser yields $18,000 By Hannah Garcia
hgarcia@coloradocommunitymedia.com With freshly shaved bald heads bobbing among the crowd and the occasional tufts of freshly shaven hair drifting across the sidewalks like tumbleweeds, Lansdowne Arm’s St. Baldrick’s Foundation Fundraiser once again drew hundreds for its annual head-shaving festival. Surrounded by Irish dancers, bagpipers and bouncy castles, around 100 participants stepped up March 16 to have their heads shaved by stylists from Floyd’s Barbershop. And each one had a
story. Stepping up to the stage set up on the Town Center sidewalk in front of Jimmy John’s, Hunter Worley, 12, raised $1,425 for the St. Patrick’s Day-themed event. He said his friend’s mother died of cancer last year, following two family friends who also died of cancer. “I couldn’t imagine what it would be like to lose someone important to you like that,” Worley said, rubbing his newly bald head. “So, I decided to do something about it.” KIMN Mix 100 DJ Jeremy Padgett had his head shaved in memory of Austin Williams, who
Jonas Nekvasil, 8, cringes as April Lowe shaves off the few remaining patches of hair March 16 during the St. Baldrick’s fundraiser in Town Center in Highlands Ranch. Photos by Hannah Garcia died of a muscle cell cancer a year ago, shortly after the teenager turned 17. Williams had undergone three years of cancer treatment before dying. “It’s just such important research,” Padgett said, after his 2-year-old son Reid had fun rubbing his freshly shaved head. “As a parent, you realize how important this is.” Williams’ mother, Daelyn Larche-Sigman, told the crowd watching and waiting for the popular buzz cuts that her son encouraged her to listen to “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” soon after he was diagnosed.
Reid Padgett, 2, rubs his dad Jeremy Padgett’s newly bald head after the KIMN Mix 100 DJ had his head shaved for charity. He raised about $850 for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation.
“Pretty soon, it became our theme song,” she said. After he received his dream car, a blue 1972 Chevelle with white racing stripes, Williams and his parents founded a local charity called Rollin’ Dreams. The nonprofit focuses on activities for teens diagnosed with cancer and raising funds. Matt Pilon raised around $500 for the event, where onlookers cheered for him as his wavy, 5-inch locks fell to the concrete. At 15 years old, Pilon’s brother Tyler passed away in December 2005 from Ewing’s sarcoma, a rare bone cancer. “I’ve shaved my head every year since then,” Pilon said. When asked if he would do it again, Pilon simply said, “oh, yeah.” KIMN Mix 100 and Lansdowne Arm’s have hosted the event since 2005. Last year, the foundation
raised $22,000 for childhood cancer research. In its eighth year, the event raised more than $18,000 for shaving pledges, donations and a silent auction as of the morning of March 17. This year’s event was in honor of 12-year-old Hope Holloway, a Highlands Ranch girl who is in remission after being diagnosed with a neuroblastoma in 2007, and Aurora youth Justin Miller, who died earlier this year after being diagnosed with a neuroblastoma in 2006. While emceeing the event, Mix 100 program director and DJ Bo Jaxon also went under the clippers, although the stylist left behind a strange pattern of brown, curly tufts behind. Like the scores of others walking around with news dos, he didn’t seem to mind. “There are some beautiful, bald heads walking around here,” he said.

When he wrote the theme song for the Colorado Rockies last month, local composer Charlie Denler said the goal was to create a rallying call for fans. “I wanted it to be a sort of call to action,” Denler said. “Any fan, and certainly fans of the Colorado Rockies, speaks like they own the team. I think baseball has that link to our culture. I definitely wrote it for the Rockies, but I also wrote it for the fans.” Denler wrote the main part of “Take the Field” over three days in his Highlands Ranch home and studio. The two-minute piece is an orchestral composition that will play when the Rockies literally take the field during home games. Resembling a film score, Denler calls his composition a “scorechestra.” The two-time Emmy-winner said
he was contacted by Anthony Pierce, the Colorado Symphony Orchestra’s vice president of artistic administration, earlier this year after hearing that the team was looking for a new theme song. Denler has worked with CSO in the past on his Portraits of Colorado symphony, which is currently available on Reference Records. “I’m not your typical, Avant-garde type of composer,” Denler said. After he wrote the main piano part, he slowly added in horns and fastmoving strings. Then, he said, he added in percussion for “that big sound.” If it were football, he might have gone with a more aggressive sound, he said. But he wanted “an intriguing, slower sound with intensity but not overly fast from the beginning.”
FORTNEY COMPANIES ...................................................... 7
“You can have 800 different pieces of music by the time you’re done,” Denler said of the composing process. Baseball has been a big part of Denler’s life of late. The composer also recently finished writing music for an animated baseball movie called Henry and Me, which stars Richard Gere and Cindi Lauper. The composer is considering writing the world’s first baseballthemed symphony as well. “I love baseball. Out of all the sports, it just feels very American. It’s part of our culture.” “Take the Field” will debut at the Rockies’ Opening Day on April 4 against the Arizona Diamondbacks. And of course, with wife and children in tow, Denler plans to be there. “That’ll be a blast,” he said.

Distinctive jurors keep heat turned up `12 Angry Men’ makes for great theater
IF YOU GO
By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia. com Testosterone bounces off those gorgeous rugs that surround the intimate theater space as Cherry Creek Theatre starts its fourth season with a strong, well-defined production of Reginald Rose’s “12 Angry Men.” This is ensemble work at its very best. Director Bernie Cardell has worked with each actor in the cast — they range from veterans to young Josh Lamb — to channel 12 different personalities and 12 distinct responses to an accusation of a young man of murdering his father. The dozen are locked in a jury room to decide a man’s fate — and the audience is locked in with them, involved in discussion about whether it’s too hot — or is there an uncomfortable draft from the window?
“12 Angry Men” plays through March 30 at Cherry Creek Theatre, presented at Shaver-Ramsey Gallery, 2414 E. 3rd Ave., Denver. Performances: 7:30 Fridays, Saturdays; 6:30 p.m. Sundays. Tickets: www.cherrycreektheatre.org. (These productions tend to sell out. Advance reservations are suggested.) Should the accused “burn” as volatile juror No. 3 (Jude Moran) advocates? Is he suspect just because he is “one of them” per juror No. 10 (Ken Street)? Or is there “reasonable doubt” as juror No. 8 (Eric Sandvold) believes? Juror No. 8 initially is the only one not convinced in an initial vote and the cleverly written script brings out lines that show each man’s life experiences that influence his thinking. Tough childhood, longstanding prejudices, issues with one’s own children, race, time perception and more… How well can one really see at night through a passing elevated train? How fast can an old man move? How well can
a neighbor hear in the apartment below when a train is passing? Talkbacks are a thoughtful addition on Sunday nights as they involve an expert former judge each time. Retired Denver County Court Judge Andrew S. Armatas started the March 9 conversation by reading what a judge says to a jury about establishing “reasonable doubt.” He also addressed the importance of making oneself available for jury duty when called. On March 23, former Chief Justice Michael Bender will appear. The simple set contains a long table, 12 chairs, a window, door and wastebasket — no more is needed. Differences in dress, such as juror No. 4’s custom-tailored suit, emphasize the personal differences. Altogether, here’s an illustration of why we love live theater.
Jude Moran, Juror No. 3, and Eric Sandvold, Juror No. 8, disagree on an interpretation of a diagram in “12 Angry Men,” playing through March 30 at Cherry Creek Theatre. Photo courtesy of RDG Photography

Castle View posts lacrosse win Sabercats edge Highlands Ranch 8-7 on last-second goal By Tom Munds
tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia. com Castle View chalked up a win in dramatic fashion by scoring a goal with less than a second left in the game to edge Highlands Ranch 8-7 in March 21 lacrosse action. “This was a good win for our team,” Sabercats Coach Jose Trujillo said after the game. “The determination we showed in this game helped our young team have more confidence in their abilities to win against good opponents. It also was a win over a rival and it is a good way to go into spring break.” The win raised the Sabercats’ record to 2-3 while it is the first loss of the season for Highlands Ranch. Castle View doesn’t play another game until after spring break, which ends March 28. Students then return to class March 31 and the Sabercats return to action on the road April 1 against Mountain Vista. Highlands Ranch looked to start another winning streak as they were at home March 24 against Rock Canyon and stayed on their home field March 27 for a game against Denver East before heading out on the road April 1 to play Pine Creek. The Sabercats and Falcons game on March 21 became a pitched battle from the opening faceoff as both teams played tough, hard-hitting defense. The checks were hard and players often hit the ground. The effective defensive play made goals hard to come by. Highlands Ranch got on the scoreboard less than three minutes into the game and scored a second goal late in the first period to establish a 2-0 advantage. Evan Wong scored his second goal of the game for the Falcons on an assist from Bay Sherbert midway through the second period to make it 3-0. Castle View then responded with a pair of goals to narrow Highland Ranch’s lead to 3-2 at halftime. The Sabercats tied the score 3-3 on a goal by Max Tuttle with 9:19 left in the third period. From that point on, it became a seesaw battle as one team would score to go ahead by a goal and the other team would storm back to tie the score. It was 5-5 going into the final quarter. Castle View had the lead late but Evan Wong scored his third goal of the game to make the score 7-7 with 1:40 left on the clock. The Sabercats won the faceoff and mounted a determined attack. The effort paid off as Tuttle fired the ball into the net with 0.8 seconds left on the clock for the winning goal. “I looked at the clock, saw time was run-

Photos by Tom Munds ning out, rushed the cage and shot the ball,” Tuttle said after the game. “I shot the ball high and it went in. I like to vary my shots but I do like to shoot high.” He said lacrosse is his sport and plays all year. Tuttle is a midfielder who can roam the length of the field. He said he feels his stamina and athleticism are major assets to his team as he gets up and down the field, playing offense, playing defense and winning the battle for ground balls. He said he puts the team’s goals ahead of his own and the team’s primary goal is to make the playoffs. Castle View spread the attack with Mike Madril, Tanner Wilkinson, Matt Anderson and Doug Simons scoring a goal each while Kai Trujillo and Tuttle scored two goals each. The Sabercats took 30 shots on goal and their goalie River Johnson made nine saves. Wong led Highlands Ranch is scoring with three goals and two assists. Teammate Sherbert scored a goal and had three assists. The Falcons 27 shots on goal and Russell Riley, Highland Ranch goalie, made 11 saves.

Mother Nature brought the snow as officials prepared for the high hurdles and they made the decision to halt competition at the Sabercat Invitational Track Meet held March 22 at Sports Authority Stadium in Parker. Temperatures hovered in the mid-30s during the meet and the arrival of snow led to the decision to close the event down. During the meet, every athlete focused on winning plus every athlete and spectator focused on staying warm as temperatures hovered just above freezing. Groups huddled together for warmth, individuals wrapped themselves in blankets and some even crawled into sleeping bags in efforts to keep warm in the stands and around the track. “This meet was in question and we had a
few teams decide not to come today,” Ryan Whitenack, meet director and Castle View track coach, said while competition was still underway. “It is chilly but, since there was no snow, we went ahead with the meet to provide a chance for the teams and athletes to compete. Snow, along with these temperatures, may mean we cut things short. ” Ponderosa runner Sarah Lark smiled and said she was glad to be running against other teams. “It is chilly but I think it is good weather to run,” she said after competing in the 4x200 relay. “Today was fun. Our team didn’t do as well as we can do but this is my event and it was a good race.” Twenty-five teams registered for the event and 17 took part in the meet. Bill Knipmeyer, a Littleton assistant coach, said the invitational was a good opportunity for Lion athletes to match their talents against top-caliber competition. “The weather hasn’t been good to us this spring so I am glad this meet went on as Track continues on Page 24

Jaguars off to stellar start Rock Canyon’s Chris Givin using arm, bat to propel team By Jim Benton
jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia. com Junior Chris Givin made his first start for the Rock Canyon varsity baseball team and it was unforgettable. Givin, the Jaguars’ shortstop, will be given some starting assignments on the mound this season after making a few relief appearances during the 2013 season. He pitched well in his three-inning debut as a starter in a 16-2, five-inning romp over Rampart on March 21 in a non-league game played at Rock Canyon. However, what made it more remarkable was the Jaguars’ 15-run second inning. Givin allowed one unearned run, struck out four and surrendered two hits. One was an infield hit and the other a bloop single that fell between second baseman Daryl Myers and right fielder Nick Nelson. “I was ready to finally get a start,” said Givin. “I was excited. I definitely felt good out there on the mound.” And, Givin spent a lot of the second inning keeping his arm loose in the dugout as Rock Canyon overcame a 1-0 deficit by sending 19 batters to the plate. Rock Canyon scored 15 runs after two batters were retired and collected eight hits, walked three times and watched two batters get hit by pitches during the uprising. Givin, Rock Canyon’s leadoff hitter, drove in two runs with a single and a third run in the second inning when he was hit by a pitch. “It was unbelievable,” Givin said. “The
runs just kept coming and coming and we kept getting on base. It was a crazy inning and definitely the biggest one I’ve ever being a part of.” First-year Rock Canyon coach Tyler Munro inserted his reserves in the bottom of the third and used two other pitchers besides Givin as the Jaguars improved their record to 4-1 before taking a week off for spring break. “The last couple games we had been hitting the ball hard,” pointed out Munro. “We’ve been waiting for one inning to explode. I have a big team and felt fortunate to get all those guys in. “We’re still trying to figure out who we are as a team. As coaches, these kids are all new to us. We’re 4-1 but we’re not satisfied. I’m new to these kids and I’m putting kids out there. There are tough decisions on my part.” Rock Canyon, which started a lineup with three seniors, three juniors and three sophomores against Rampart, resumes its schedule April 1 with a game at Pomona. After five games, the Jaguars are hitting .378 as a team, led by sophomore Trevor Howard’s .545 batting average. Josh White leads the team with nine hits and is hitting .500 and Givin’s eight RBIs is tops on the squad. Eleven different pitchers have been used by the Rock Canyon coaching staff this season, with senior Christian Myers logging eight innings with a 1.75 ERA and junior Bryce Dietz compiling a 1.17 ERA in six innings pitched. “I feel like this year is our year,” said Givin. “We have so many seniors that can do so much for our team. I just think this is the year. If we are going to do something, it’s going to be this year.”

scheduled,” he said. “I think this is the first chance for some of our young kids to see what they can do at this level of competition.” Trey Smith, who ran the 100-meter dash for Douglas County, said the cold temperatures made his muscles tight and he didn’t feel as good as he would have if it had been warmer. “Still, everyone facing the competing in the same weather conditions so it was still fun to run today,” he said. “I knew going in that, in this weather, I wouldn’t have a great time but I did run pretty well I think.”

Check the stories out before you decided to act.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Friends can be counted on to help you deal with a perplexing personal situation. But remember to keep your circle of advisers limited only to those you’re sure you can trust. LEO (Jul 23 to aug 22) Security-loving Lions do not appreciate uncertainty in any form. But sometimes changing situations can reveal hidden stresses in time to repair a relationship before it’s too late. VIRGO (aug 23 to Sept 22) This is a good time for single Virgos to make a love connection. Be careful not to be too judgmental about your new “prospect” -- at least until you know more about her or him. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Your sense of justice helps you resolve a problem that might have been unfairly attributed to the wrong person. Spend the weekend doing some long-neglected chores. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) You might feel justified in your anger toward someone you suspect betrayed your trust. But it could help if you take the time to check if your suspicions have substance. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) Ignore distractions if you hope to accomplish your goal by the deadline you agreed to. Keep the finish line in sight, and you should be able to cross it with time to spare. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Your creative self continues to dominate through much of the week. also, despite a few problems that have cropped up, that recent romantic connection seems to be thriving. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) as curious as you might be, it’s best to avoid trying to learn a colleague’s secret. That sort of knowledge could drag you into a difficult workplace situation at some point down the line. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Instead of spending too much time floundering around wondering if you can meet your deadline, you need to spend more time actually working toward reaching it. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a natural gift for attracting new friends, who are drawn to your unabashed love of what life should be all about. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.
