Larkspur OKs new town hall Town pursues lease-purchase of bigger building

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Larkspur Town Hall, a 1,100-square-foot house, has become big — in the headache department.

“It’s a dire need,” said Matt Krimmer, Larkspur town manager, about the need for a more spacious town hall.

Krimmer said they’re beyond being out of space, storage and otherwise, in the tiny building.

And that’s why town staff and

council are working on buying a building down the street for a new town hall — a 1,700-squarefoot log building at 8720 S. Spruce Mountain Road.

The current town hall, at 9524 Spruce Mountain Road, a onestory house donated to the town in 1984, has but four rooms: There’s the main room where both the receptionist works, the town council meets and a fullsize refrigerator sits; there’s no room for it in the kitchen, Krimmer said.

Off of that room is the building’s sole office that has two desks in close proximity, shared by Krimmer and Sharon Roman, the town’s deputy clerk.

Then there’s the filing room where they can’t put needed additional filing cabinets. If they did,

Krimmer said, town staff wouldn’t have walking room to be able to get to the existing filing cabinets.

And, then, there’s the tiny kitchen.

So documents that need to be close by — such as active files of businesses and developers in town — are in cardboard boxes “stacked in multiple places,” Krimmer said.

Searching for other records means leaving the building, because they’re out back in the detached garage or in a portable storage unit.

Other issues: Krimmer said when there is a project involving records and documents, materials are spread out on the town hall’s one large table. But then the Larkspur continues on Page 10

Puppy found in trashcan thriving

Judge says DCSD in violation School district will appeal decision regarding report emailed to 85,000 residents

‘Rambunctious’ Lilo was among dogs abandoned in Highlands Ranch park

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Lilo squirms in owner Morris Hansen’s arms, wiggling out of his grasp and into the waiting arms of Denise Waggoner, who stands next to her husband.

“She’s kind of rambunctious,” Hansen said, smiling.

At almost eight months, the 12-pound puppy’s energy level is about normal. She’s come a long way from the first hours of her life, spent in a trashcan in Highlands Ranch’s Heritage Regional Park. Lilo was abandoned there with her four Shih Tzu-mix siblings, one of which died before the newborns were discovered on May 21.

Just before Christmas, Lilo’s adoptive owners brought her back to the park for a pre-holiday romp. She ran and played within sight of the very trashcan in which she and her siblings nearly died.

Lilo and her three surviving littermates, estimated at between three and seven days old when they were found, spent several weeks in foster care before they were made available for adoption in July.

Castle Rock residents Hansen and Waggoner aren’t sure why they were selected from among the dozens who wanted to adopt.

“We were told 60 people applied for the four puppies,” Waggoner said. “We don’t know how we got so lucky.”

While in adoptive care, the helpless puppies grew into brown balls of fluffy fur. Lilo since has exchanged her dark puppy coat for a buff color; the fluffy fur remains.

Waggoner said both the story of the puppies’ harsh beginnings and the sight of Lilo’s fluffy face in the newspaper compelled her to

Castle Rock husband-and-wife Morris Hansen and Denise Waggoner hold Lilo during one of her rare still moments at Highlands Ranch’s Heritage Regional Park. Photos by Jane Reuter suggest she and Hansen adopt the puppy.

“It’s a touching story, but quite honestly, we saw her little face and thought, `She’s speaking to us’,” Waggoner said. “When the humane society posted little descriptions of their demeanors, we thought she’d fit in well with us. It’s just the two of us.”

Douglas County Animal Control Officer Caitlyn Cahill, who fostered the puppies, had previously described Lilo as a loner.

With Waggoner and Hansen as her human pack, she’s not a loner now. While they don’t see any signs of lingering trauma, her owners said Lilo prefers having them in her sights.

“She wants people around,” Waggoner said. “If you’re not around, she’s coming to find you.”

Because Hansen works from home, Lilo rarely is alone. Though the couple’s home has a yard, Lilo prefers to have company even there.

“She likes to play outside and wants to go out, while I’m trying to work inside,” Hansen said.

“She keeps us young,” Wagonner said.

“She’s our kid.”

During a recent visit, a veterinarian pro-

At almost eight months, Lilo is “kind of rambunctious,” owner Morris Hansen said. nounced Lilo “perfectly healthy.” Regardless, Waggoner still hopes the person who abandoned the puppies comes forward.

“But mostly, they should know there are options for puppies you don’t want,” she said.

“We just don’t want them to do it to other dogs.”

The Douglas County School District will appeal a judge’s ruling that it violated the Colorado Fair Campaign Practices Act and attempted to influence the outcome of the recent school board election.

The ruling was in response to a mid-October complaint filed with the Colorado Secretary of State by unsuccessful school board candidate Julie Keim. She alleged DCSD used district resources to support its preferred candidates, and Administrative Law Judge Hollyce Farrell agreed.

Those four ultimately successful candidates — Doug Benevento, Jim Geddes, Judi Reynolds and Meghann Silverthorn — support the school district’s education-reform policies.

Farrell’s finding of a violation applied to only one of several claims — a district-financed report praising the reforms that was emailed to potential voters — that Keim’s attorney presented during two days of testimony. But the former candidate said it was the key piece of evidence.

“We were really looking for the finding on that report, because that was the direct connection of using taxpayer resources to finance a political agenda,” Keim said, saying the other instances showed a pattern of poor behavior. “We’re just trying to make sure election law is followed and public dollars aren’t used for political Keim continues on Page 7

‘Heaven has gained an angel’

Arapahoe High shooting victim Claire Davis dies

statement from

the davis family

By Chris Rotar

The following statement from Claire Davis’ family was posted Dec. 21 on Littleton Adventist Hospital’s Facebook page:

crotar@coloradocommunitymedia.com The list of items, each one dropped off as a gesture of hope and support, continued to grow.

The flowers, the candles, the cards, the teddy bears, the balloons, the banners urging strength. Since Dec. 13, they piled up outside a fence at Arapahoe High School in Centennial.

Claire Davis — and all of Arapahoe High — was tight within an extended community’s embrace.

Nine days after Davis was shot in the head, one item, a yellow poster board, spelled out the heartbreaking conclusion of her fight for life.

“Heaven has gained an angel.”

Davis had died the previous day, at 4:29 p.m. Dec. 21, at Littleton Adventist Hospital, her family by her side. The 17-year-old had been in critical condition since fellow Arapahoe High student Karl Pierson shot her at the school around 12:30 p.m. Dec. 13.

A statement posted on the hospital’s Facebook page announced the news to the community and to those around the nation and world who spent more than a week praying for Davis to recover.

The hospital’s message seemed to indicate that Davis was indeed “Warrior Strong” — a mantra built on the school’s nickname and the need to rebound from a nightmare — until the end.

“Despite the best efforts of our physicians and nursing staff, and Claire’s fighting spirit, her injuries were too severe and the most advanced medical treatments could not prevent this tragic loss of life.

Claire’s death is immensely heartbreaking for our entire community, our staff and our families.”

Shortly after that posting, the hospital relayed a message from the Davis family, which, in part, stated: “Although we have

It is with unspeakable sadness that we write and say that Claire has passed away from the gunshot wound she received at Arapahoe High School on December 13, 2013. Although we have lost our precious daughter, we will always be grateful for the indelible journey she took us on over the last 17 years — we were truly blessed to be Claire’s parents. The grace, laughter and light she brought to this world will not be extinguished by her death; to the contrary, it will only get stronger.

Last week was truly a paradox in that we lost our daughter, yet we witnessed the wonderful love that exists in the world through the tremendous outpouring of support we received. We’d like to take this opportunity to thank the first responders, the school resource officer, security guard and vice principal at Arapahoe High School, the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s office, and the physicians, nurses and staff at Littleton Adventist Hospital. Each played a significant role in giving Claire a chance to live, and demonstrated extreme amounts of professionalism, courage and love. Please know that we will never forget the extraordinary work you did on Claire’s behalf.

Davis

We ask that you give us time to grieve the death of our daughter by respecting our wishes for privacy.

lost our precious daughter, we will always be grateful for the indelible journey she took us on over the last 17 years — we were truly blessed to be Claire’s parents.

The grace, laughter and light she brought to this world will not be extinguished by her death; to the contrary, it will only get stronger.”

Davis, who loved horses and the boyband One Direction, was a senior at Arapahoe. Authorities believe she just happened to be near the north entrance to the school used by Pierson as he made his charge to the library in search of his primary target, the coach of the speech and debate team.

The shotgun-wielding Pierson killed himself in the library about a minute after shooting Davis.

Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson said the two knew each other, but likely not well, and that there is no evidence she was a target of Pierson’s.

“As the result of discussions with the Davis family and friends of Claire Davis, it is clear that Claire and the shooter were school acquaintances, but were never close friends,” Robinson said in a Dec. 18 news release.

Over the weekend, Davis’ family announced the establishment of the Arapahoe High School Community Fund honoring Claire Davis.

The charitable fund will “support Arapahoe High School and the surrounding community by providing assistance for mental health care, anti-bullying pro-

With much loving-kindness, The Davis Family grams and other community needs,” according to a statement by the City of Centennial.

Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper posted a statement on his Facebook page the night of Davis’ death, offering his condolences.

“Claire Davis personified the love and kindness she learned from her family,” he wrote. “All of Colorado feels that. They are in our hearts.”

Littleton Adventist said information regarding a public celebration of Davis’ life will be announced at a future date.

Towns shift animal shelter service south Contract with Buddy Center means shorter drives for pet owners, police

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia. com Retrieving an impounded dog is rarely a pleasant task, but new Lone Tree and Parker contracts should remove at least some of the hassle — and save taxpayers money.

Officials in both communities now impound stray and loose pets at the Buddy Center in Castle Rock instead of the Humane Society of the South Platte Valley shelter.

The Littleton shelter is more than 15 miles from Lone Tree and 22 from Parker on a route of often-congested urban streets. The Buddy Center, located off of Founders Parkway, is about 11 miles from Lone Tree and 12 from Parker.

Lone Tree and Parker are joining an intergovernmental agreement for the services already in place between Douglas County government and the DDFL, which operates the Buddy Center. The change saves the city money, and police officers and residents time and gas.

The Buddy Center in Castle Rock. Photo by Virginia Grantier “Moving to the Buddy Center and entering into an IGA with the county is probably going to save us right around $13,600,” Parker Police Operations Capt.

Jim Tsurapas said. “It’s a pretty big savings for us, and it’s a lot closer for the residents to be able to drive for their impounded

animals.”

The Parker Town Council likely will vote on the change in January and Tsurapas expects the proposal to pass.

The Lone Tree City Council approved the change during its Dec. 17 meeting.

Lone Tree’s contract with the South

Platte Valley shelter cost the city about $5,500 annually. The new agreement will cost $1,800, a savings of about $3,700.

In 2012, Douglas County paid the DDFL $93,106 for animal sheltering and impoundment services. That cost will increase somewhat with the addition of the two communities, but county leaders don’t expect it will be significant.

Adding Lone Tree and Parker to the contract is only logical, said Maureen Waller, project manager with Douglas County Government.

“It works out well for all of us,” she said.

“It’s a significant savings for both Parker and Lone Tree.

“And it’s a lot better for our residents.

Driving to Castle Rock is a lot better than to Belleview and Santa Fe.” The Town of Castle Rock already uses the Buddy Center, Waller said, which means the county entities now are part of a common agreement.

The Buddy Center is located off I-25 and Founders Parkway at 4556 Castleton Court. It is a sister facility to the larger Denver Dumb Friends League shelter on Quebec Street. Last year, DDFL adopted, reunited or transferred 16,762 pets.

Lone Tree police transport between 20 and 25 injured, lost or neglected pets annually to the animal shelter.

Former deputy coroner faces up to 15 years Carter Lord found guilty of embezzlement, forgery

By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Former Douglas County Deputy Coroner Carter Lord has been found guilty of embezzlement and forgery, crimes he committed while serving the county.

In October 2012, the criminal justice division of the Colorado Attorney General’s Office filed a complaint against Lord accusing him of embezzling firearms from the Douglas County Coroner’s Office that had been collected as evidence.

An ensuing investigation by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation uncovered the fact that three guns which had been taken as evidence by the coroner’s office following suicides investigated by the of-

fice had gone missing.

“In four instances, the next of kin released the guns to the Douglas County Coroner’s Office, and those weapons should have been destroyed,” a news release from the Attorney General’s Office Lord states. “Four guns were released to Lord for destruction; however, only one of the four guns was actually destroyed.

“Lord resold one of the guns, and kept two of the others to sell at a store he owns called The Stock Shop, in Sedalia. Carter Lord filed falsified documents with the Douglas County Coroner’s Office showing that the guns had been destroyed.”

Lord pleaded not guilty to the charges and the case was presented to a Douglas County jury on Dec. 17 and 18. The jury

returned with guilty verdicts on one count of embezzlement and two counts of forgery on Dec. 19.

Lord, who was also arrested on a DUI charge in March near Sedalia, could face up to three years for the embezzlement count and up to six years on each count of forgery. He will be sentenced on Feb. 24, 2014.

“We appreciate the thoughtful work of the jury, and believe their verdict represents a just outcome,” said Attorney General John Suthers. “We also thank our partners at the CBI for conducting a very thorough and professional investigation.”

The first of the weapons was discovered missing from the coroner’s office in 2012 by Coroner Lora Thomas, who had defeated Lord in the 2010 Republican primary.

Once Thomas saw there was a weapon unaccounted for, she turned the case over

to authorities. As Lord, who served under former Coroner Wes Riber, was a suspect in the investigation, and Sheriff David A. Weaver had endorsed Lord’s candidacy against Thomas, the sheriff’s office passed the investigation on to the CBI. “The reason I ran for this office was because I knew about the mismanagement here,” Thomas told Colorado Community Media in a prior interview regarding the case. “I inherited a situation here. I’ve been here for about two years and it’s a totally different environment. We are accountable, professional and efficient.”

Thomas is a Republican candidate for Douglas County Sheriff and is running against Weaver’s undersheriff, Tony Spurlock, a fellow Republican, as well as Castle Rock Police Cmdr. John Anderson, also a Republican. The Republican primary is slated for June 2014 and the general election will be November 2014.

Volunteer arrested on sex-assault charge Staff report Police arrested a Parker Task Force volunteer suspected of inappropriately touching a young girl.

Michael Frey, 69, was taken into custody one month after the incident was reported to the Parker Police Department on Nov. 21. He is accused of touching the

female victim multiple times while at the task force, a nonprofit organization that helps underprivileged families in Douglas and Elbert counties.

Task force officials are fully cooperating with the investigation, a spokeswoman for the 501(c)(3) said. It’s unclear whether the victim was also a volunteer. The alleged assault occurred in the days leading up to Thanksgiving, which is among the busiest

times of year for the task force.

Steve Budnack, volunteer chairman of the nonprofit, called the reported misconduct an “extremely unfortunate incident.”

“Michael Frey was prohibited from having contact with anyone from the task force office and is no longer serving at the task force,” Budnack said in a statement.

The Pinery resident turned himself into police and was booked on one felony

count of sexual assault on a child. He is being held on a $50,000 bond.

The Parker Police Department is asking for help in identifying any potential additional victims. Call 303-805-6560 or email pmclean@parkeronline. org.

Library dropping fines on some kids’ books Policy change based on research that predicts academic success

By Jane Reuter

jreuter @coloradocommunitymedia.com In a move aimed at deepening a childhood love of reading, Douglas County Libraries plans to stop charging overdue fines on many children’s books. The new policy applies only to illustrated children’s books and takes effect Jan. 17.

“I want two outcomes (from this),” said library district director Jamie LaRue. “One is more books in people’s homes. The second is that I want people to understand that there is no better investment they can make in the mind of their child than to get as many books in front of them as possible.”

The books that will be part of the new policy, he said, constitute the bulk of the library dis-

trict’s business.

It pains him, though, that he keeps running across parents, who say, “`I have so many fines.’

I thought, why am I punishing people who are doing the right thing for their children? Take out 20 books. Read them all.”

LaRue’s belief in the power of books stems from research, including the results of a 20-year study published in the journal, “Research in Social Stratification and Mobility.” It showed the importance of early exposure to books — lots of books.

Data compiled from 27 countries showed that children in homes with a 500-book library or greater achieve a higher level of education than those with less exposure to books. The positive influence of home libraries, the study said, crosses cultural and income levels, and boosts a child’s chances for academic success regardless of the parents’ literacy level.

The abolishment of fines doesn’t mean the books are free for the taking, though. If a book

isn’t returned after six weeks, it will be categorized as “lost” and subject to replacement cost. But no fines will be assessed on picture books returned late.

The policy isn’t yet permanent, either. Library staff will track the project through 2014 to see if it achieves the desired goal of increasing picture book circulation. Based on the results, they’ll recommend whether to continue the practice.

LaRue, who has been pondering the idea for a while, said his pending retirement in January prompted him to move forward with the idea. “This is my swan song,” he said. “It’s something that’s kind of bothered me, and this will be my last chance to do something about it.”

DCL isn’t the first system to try the fine-free approach.

Denver Public Library no longer assesses fines on overdue children’s materials, and some library proponents believe the fees drive people away from the public system in favor of buying books.

police briefs Christmas present stolen

A 48-year-old Castle Rock woman told police Dec. 16 that when she picked up a FedEx package on her porch that afternoon in the 2600 block of Red Hawk Ridge Drive it was ripped open and there was nothing inside. The woman said the package was supposed to have contained a $200 iPhone 5s her son had bought her for Christmas.

According to her son, the FedEx website indicated someone from her home signed for the package. But she told police neither she, nor her husband, had signed for it.

Theft in middle school

A Castle Rock Middle School student, age 12, reported that his iPod had been stolen out of his unlocked gym locker sometime after he put it there at 8 a.m. Dec. 16.

The item was worth about $100 and had a clear case on it with a diamond pattern, according to the police report.

`Fort’ fire in open space

Castle Rock police were sent to Memmen Ridge Open Space at 4:48 p.m. Dec. 21 after witnesses reported seeing “large flames coming from the hillside.” Police observed there were remnants of a “fort” that may have been built by children and evidence that a campfire there may have gotten out of control. Castle Rock firefighters put out the fire, which was about 150 yards from a residence in the 200 block of Ash Avenue. Flames reaching heights of about 15 to 20 feet slightly damaged a large, adult pine tree and surrounding grass, causing about $100 damage.

Coroner identifies fire victim

Maureen Warfield, 45, of Castle Rock, has been identified as the person who died in the Nov. 7 apartment fire at 1120 Highland Ridge Way in Castle Rock, according to a recent Douglas County Coroner’s Office news release.

The death has been determined to be accidental and caused by asphyxiation due to carbon monoxide toxicity, according to the release.

Investigators in November said an unattended cigarette started the fire when it fell from a countertop into a trashcan and spread to the kitchen cabinets.

The fire damage was contained to the one unit. Police and fire personnel arrived to find one victim, Warfield, inside the apartment.

Dental care elusive for Medicaid enrollees In rural areas, few dentists available that accept Medicaid

By Kristin Jones

I-News at Rock Mountain PBS Almost half a million Coloradans are expected to gain dental benefits under Medicaid by 2016.

That doesn’t mean they’ll be able to see a dentist.

Two state policy changes rolling out this year are intended to improve access to oral health care for low-income Coloradans.

The state Legislature last year voted to expand Medicaid’s dental benefits to adults — it now only covers children for most kinds of care.

The change will go into effect around the same time as Colorado expands Medicaid coverage under the Affordable Care Act to those who make slightly more than the federal poverty level.

The pair of changes is expected to grow the ranks of Medicaid enrollees with dental benefits to 844,491 in 2016, from 348,142 last year, according to a study released in December by the Colorado Health Institute.

But 17 counties in Colorado don’t have a dentist who accepts Medicaid, the study reported.

Some rural areas simply don’t have dentists at all — you won’t find one in sparsely populated Kiowa County in the eastern plains, or in southern Colorado’s Mineral County, the institute found. In more populous Delta and Elbert counties, there are dentists — but none that take Medicaid.

Chaffee County ranks among the areas with a low percentage of dentists accepting Medicaid.

Cara Russell heads the county’s program to improve oral health, which works to educate people on the importance of good oral hygiene.

Preventive dental care can keep people from showing up in pain at emergency rooms and in need of expensive surgery.

Poor oral health is also associated with chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease, according to recent studies cited by the Centers for Disease Control. But inspiring someone to go to the dentist doesn’t get them there, says Russell.

For those living in her area of the state,

the nearest dentist accepting Medicaid is often a drive of 65 miles to 110 miles.

At the same time, much of the working population will remain uninsured even as Medicaid expands.

“We are on the verge of much better care for our underserved population,” says Russell. “But we’re not there yet, and the transition is going to be painful.”

In the southeastern Colorado town of Walsh, Carol Morrow is the only dentist in Baca County, population 4,500. She accepts Medicaid, making her office an oasis in a dental desert. Some patients drive hours to get to her.

“I think every person deserves the same kind of care, whether they can afford it or not,” says Morrow.

The expansion of Medicaid benefits to adults will allow her to get some compensation for care she now provides for free, she says.

Morrow is participating in a new push by the Colorado Dental Association to encourage more dentists to accept Medicaid as the policy changes unfold.

The professional group is fighting a perception among some dentists that the paperwork is too cumbersome and reimbursement rates too low, and an unfounded fear that Medicaid patients will fail to show up for appointments, says Jennifer Goodrum, who directs the organization’s government relations.

Jeff Hurst, who runs a practice in Lakewood, is one of the Colorado dentists who doesn’t take Medicaid.

The 40-page application form to become a Medicaid doctor is one barrier.

Payment is another reason Hurst stopped seeing Medicaid enrollees.

The state is slow to process claims, and the reimbursement doesn’t even cover his office’s overhead costs, he said.

However, Hurst is heartened by recent moves by state officials to make it easier to navigate the application and payment process and hike reimbursement rates.

“Removing these barriers will allow us to treat these patients the same way we treat others,” says Hurst. “These adults — some of which have never had care —

PETER PE TER PAN the musical

can get introduced to the world of dentistry.”

Still, improving access to dental care is likely to take creative thinking in places as far-flung as Delta County on the western range, Conejos County to the south, and a huge swath of the eastern plains where Medicaid enrollees far outnumber dentists willing or able to provide services.

Expanding the role of dental hygienists may be one solution, while boosting the capacity of dentists that already see low-income patients may be another route.

“Communities are gearing up and getting ready,” says Sara Schmitt, one of the authors of the Colorado Health Institute study.

It’s too soon to know if they’ll succeed.

Ranch man offers nonprofits tech help A Tech4NonProfits has like-new tech equipment at deeply discounted prices

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@coloradocommunitymedia. com Garry Seaber, 53, of Highlands Ranch, who started a computer-refurbishing company in his garage, IT Liquidators, and now has a 6,000 square-foot warehouse in Littleton, along with Highlands Ranch and California offices, just recently launched a new division to help nonprofits save money.

Seaber — who developed his computer and business skills during years working with IBM and other companies in California — sells computer equipment to nonprofits at discounts ranging from 30 to 50 percent.

“We’re still making some money, but not like normal,” he said about Tech4NonProfits’ profit margin. But, he said, he thinks it’s something really worthwhile for the community.

Seaber, who has an economics degree from University of Southern California, established his own company after he made the move in 2004 to Colorado, a family vacation spot, because he wanted to move out of Southern California — to gain a desired life-style change for his family.

He said IT Liquidators’ main business is buying large amounts of outdated computer equipment from corporations, upgrading it and installing new operating systems.

Seaber said he then sells the equipment to

Courtesy photo companies with limited equipment budgets who have found they get substantially more for their money if they buy refurbished equipment instead of new.

The new Tech4NonProfits division gives nonprofits that same lower price plus the additional discount.

Seaber, whose company also gives 10 percent of profits to charity from computers sold on Ebay — currently the beneficiary is a program that places chaplains in jails —decided to do this for nonprofits after discovering they often aren’t very “tech savvy.”

He said he found they often didn’t have a “reliable and trusted source for high-quality, reasonably-priced technology” and were buying new equipment from manufacturers and not getting fair prices.

“Those people have more of a servants’ heart,” he said.

Their focus is to serve a particular need in the community, meet those needs, raise donations, deal with coordination of other resources and so on, Seaber said. “(But) they still need technology to support their mission,” he added.

So, Seaber’s Tech4NonProfits division is

He said the nonprofit now loves thatof th corporation because it has received do-do St nated equipment that it can actually use —oath and which will be useable for three to fivemun years. And the corporation loves it because the donated equipment, in its newly refurbished state, has doubled or tripled its taxdeduction value.

“Meeting Garry and being able to get all of the computer equipment for our office has allowed us to work much more effectively,” said Kip Pyle recently, office and technology manager for nonprofit A Strong Tower Ministry, which helps people recently released from prison.

“We serve more than 1,100 men and women each year and 90 percent of them have used our computer lab to connect to resources they need for re-entry into society after prison life. Garry and his company are truly a blessing to an organization like ours.”

Coffman helps veterans in Paralympics Bill extends adaptive sports program through 2015 Staff report The U.S. House of Representatives recently passed Rep. Mike Coffman’s Veterans Paralympics Act, authorizing the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to operate its adaptive sports program through 2015.

“This is about more than simply giving veterans a chance to play sports,” said Coffman, R-Aurora. “It’s about giving them the chance to regain a small part of what they sacrificed on the battlefield.”

Currently, the VA operates this program in a partnership with the U.S. Olympic Committee that funds grants to a host of adaptive sports programs for disabled veterans across the country.

Evan Stratton, who went to Littleton and Heritage high schools, is one of those veterans. In July 2009, Stratton was deployed in Iraq when enemy forces using grenades ambushed him and his team. Stratton was struck by shrapnel, suffered a traumatic brain injury and had his spinal accessory nerve severed, leaving his upper left arm and shoulder paralyzed.

He participated in the Warrior Games in May at the U.S. Olympic Training Center and the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs. Competing in both swimming and track, Stratton came home with six medals and world records in three swimming events. He said the Paralympics gave him a chance to experience the brotherhood and camaraderie so key to a soldier’s existence.

“Being a veteran and not really having those connections, that day-in and day-out contact, it’s really fun to be around Marines,” he said. “You meet some really amazing people.”

In addition to rediscovering camaraderie, participation in sports can help speed the rehabilitation process for disabled veterans. Coffman says his bill helps increase access at the community level, providing a path for athletes like Stratton to progress to elite levels of competition such as the Paralympics.

The Paralyzed Veterans of America honor U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman during its annual banquet File photo Currently, there are dozens of partnership organizations in Colorado and over 300 nationwide that are helping our veterans with their rehabilitation through adaptive sports. The U.S. Olympic Committee’s Paralympics Chief Charlie Huebner said he’s seen the results of the program firsthand and is proud to support its reauthori-

zation.

“The USOC, and more importantly the hundreds of adaptive sport organizations that are delivering the grassroots programs, are proud to stand with Congressmen Coffman in support of a bill that allows for experienced adaptive sport entities to partner with the VA,” Huebner said.

Apology letter not happening Einolf calls council’s order ‘violation of free speech’

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Castle Pines Councilmember James Einolf said he has no intention of submitting an apology letter to the city manager who would then send it on the rest of city council for review — exactly what the council directed him to do after they voted Dec. 10 that Einolf had violated the city’s code of conduct.

“Council’s order that I should write what they tell me (to write) is a blatant violation of the free speech provisions of the Colorado State Constitution, which we all took an oath to uphold,” Einolf told Colorado Community Media recently.

Keim Continued from Page 1

purposes. Really, elections should be based on what is true and accurate not what is portrayed by a political ideology.”

In an emailed statement, DCSD leaders said they disagree with the judge’s interpretation of the law, noting the ruling applied to only one of several claims.

“In the lone claim in which the Administrative Law Judge found a violation, the district respectfully disagrees and will immediately appeal,” reads the statement sent by a DCSD spokeswoman and attributed to school board president Kevin Larsen.

“The judge seems to have concluded that it is a violation of law anytime the district disseminates positive news involving its education policy agenda if there are also candidates for school board who support that agenda.”

The judge’s finding against the district applied to the paper titled “The Most Interesting School District in America?” written by the American Enterprise Institute’s Frederick Hess as part of a contracted deal with DCSD. In mid-September, the district emailed a link to the paper to 85,000 parents and community members - all potential voters in the Nov. 5, 2013 election.

DCSD later revealed it had contracted with Hess to write the paper.

A copy of it also was delivered to many Douglas County residences about a month before the election, accompanied by a letter of endorsement for the four board-supported candidates signed by state lawmakers Sen. Ted Harvey, Rep. Frank McNulty and Rep. Polly Lawrence.

The judge “finds that the Hess report was commissioned and published as a means to support the reform agenda and any candidates who would further that agenda,” Farrell wrote in her Dec. 24 ruling.

“The ALJ finds that the district spent public funds to influence the outcome of the board election when it commissioned and paid $15,000 for the Hess report.”

Castle Pines City Council determined Einolf had violated the city’s code of conduct because of a Dec. 10 email in which he told undisclosed recipients about his concern that the rest of council, at its Nov. 26 meeting, had directed the city Einolf manager to increase the public relations budget another $25,000 to $100,000.

Einolf has opposed the city’s public relations expenditures since council decided in mid-2013, with Einolf dissenting, to contract with a local public relations firm for a fee of $6,480 per month plus expenses.

Einolf wants the money spent for road improvements, instead.

Einolf told Colorado Community Media that upon further review he did make a mis-

Farrell did not agree DCSD violated the act when its educational foundation contracted with former U.S. Secretary of Education Bill Bennett, through alleged attempts to hamper the distribution of some campaign materials, publi- Keim cize reform-candidate-only forums or give candidates unequal access to information — four other claims Keim made in her complaint.

Farrell did not levy a fine against DCSD, noting Keim didn’t request one.

“I’m just happy to try to hold them accountable for doing something wrong,” Keim said. “A big reason for pursuing this is to let people know that what you hear or read is not always true. And we all need to be very informed.

“It would be silly for them to appeal it. I think they should stop mis-using taxpayer dollars to defend inappropriate acts on their part.”

Keim said she is paying her attorney through personal funds, and has received donations from supporters.

DCSD plans to not only appeal Farrell’s ruling but to seek reimbursement for its legal fees.

It has not yet received a final tally of those expenses from law firm Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, hired to defend it in the case.

“The Administrative Law Judge ruled in the district’s favor on five allegations under the campaign finance act, finding that there was absolutely no basis for those complaints,” according to the school district’s statement. “Because the Judge’s rejection of those allegations was so emphatic, the district intends to ask for an award in its litigation costs.”

DCSD paid Hess $30,000 for his work, $15,000 of it from school district public funds and the remainder through the Douglas County Educational Foundation.

While Bennett’s contract has not been released, school leaders previously have said he was paid $50,000 through a private donation made to the DCEF.

take, that there was no formal motion on Nov. 26 directing the city manager, Don Van Wormer, to increase the budget amount.

But, he said, it was an “honest mistake.”

Einolf cited comments made by four council members at the Nov. 26 meeting that had led him to that conclusion — such as councilmember Tear Radloff’s comment in which she said “I think we should direct (Van Wormer) to increase that line item in the budget.”

Radloff told Colorado Community Media she hasn’t received an apology from Einolf and added that “two of the things that council is unified on and feels strongly about are transparency and communications.”

None of the other councilmembers could be reached for comment.

Einolf said he has sent out an email to those who received his Dec. 10 email, apol-

ogizing for his error.

“I also issued a public apology to councilpersons (Kathy) DesRosiers and Radloff for not accurately quoting their remarks in support of raising the PR budget. I did both of these things because it was the honorable thing to do, not because of council’s illegal demand,” he said.

But he said he refuses to compose and send a letter of apology to the council members for their review — a letter they then wanted sent out to all city residents.

Einolf said he thinks council’s “goal is to shut me up, to get me to stop pointing out that the emperor has no clothes.”

He said the city doesn’t have enough money to properly take care of the city. “…I have a responsibility to the people who elected me to tell them the truth about the City’s finances, and I have no intention of dodging that obligation,” Einolf said.

opinions / yours and ours

Nocturnal sales pitches and worthless coins I was warned. When I mentioned to a friend several years ago that I was planning to move my television to the master bedroom, my friend said, “You might regret it.”

I think she was right. I now watch about 10 times as much programming as I did when the set was in the living room. The programming isn’t any better than it used to be — in fact, it’s worse.

Add to that some horrific visions in my room of rest, like the one I had recently when I couldn’t sleep, and simply wanted something or someone to comfort me back into the arms of Morpheus.

I turned on the television at about 3 a.m., and a man who looked exactly like entertainer Jack Cassidy — just a little too good looking — started yelling at me about quarters. He was standing right next to hundreds of shiny, uncirculated quarters, row after row of them.

For a limited time only I could own all of them, and ones that were yet to be minted — for two easy payments.

He had his pitch down perfectly, never stumbled over his words, or let on that he was a shill — which he was.

He was exceedingly annoying, but I couldn’t stop watching, or wondering how many others were watching too and reaching for their credit cards.

Here’s a flashback for you.

For the final eight years of a dear friend’s life, I fixed her Sunday breakfast.

I always brought her flowers. I checked in on her during the week. A couple of times I changed her bedding because of blood, provided updates to her relatives in North Carolina, and expected nothing in return — but I was receiving many, many things in return.

She was an artist. I am an artist. She was my final mentor, and I was able to see what it might be like to have dedicated yourself

Flattery will get you everywhere OK, so maybe it’s not flattery that will get you everywhere but rather kindness or, at a minimum, kind words.

Now don’t get me wrong, flattery when sincerely given is not a bad place to start either. The problem comes when we use flattery as a weapon or manipulative tactic instead of having it come from the truth of the heart.

There are few things I enjoy more than hearing people speaking lovingly and kindly to one another. And I can assure you that as I have an opportunity to witness such sweet acts and hear such warm words, even though I am not a direct part of the conversation, it warms my heart and I find it to be just so wonderful. It inspires me to seek out opportunities to do the very same thing. And do it as quickly as possible.

You know the old saying, “If you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all.” I often wonder why more people don’t subscribe to the philosophy or actually put it into practice on a more regular basis, doing it so often that it becomes a good habit and all that emerges from their lips are words of love, hope and encouragement.

Love, hope, and encouragement are the essence of what kindness is really all about.

I bet you can think of a time or conversation that you had where you wish the words would have been sweeter, and the outcome much better.

Now, I know some families seem to believe that speaking harshly or even caustically to one another is their `norm’ and just couldn’t even imagine trying to speak words that build each other up instead of tearing each other down.

Unfortunately there are other old sayings and philosophical beliefs that are so heavily engrained in the hearts and minds of people that prohibit them from seeing the many benefits of speaking kindly and lovingly toward one another. Sayings like, “familiarity breeds contempt,” or “sometimes it just seems easier to say harsh things or hurt those closest to us.”

Maybe it’s time to break that cycle!

Maybe our resolution for 2014 could be to speak words of optimism, love, hope and encouragement to one another. What would that sound like in your house, in your family, with your friends, and even with your co-workers? Maybe it will feel a little uncomfortable and even unnatural at first. But here’s the deal, the more that we do it and do it consistently, the more the people around us will seem to change as well.

I would say that the majority of us long for words of hope and encouragement, and more importantly we respond favorably to such nurturing talk.

I am not sure about you, but when I feel like the flattery is sincere or that someone is building me up through the use of kind Norton continues on Page 9

to a lifetime of art, but now it was no longer possible to make art, not for her.

Her husband, a brilliant poet, died long before she did. They lived in a small house on Kearney Street off of Colfax, where Ruth and Littleton made their art and poetry.

They created during the day, and enjoyed cocktails in the evening. I never met her husband, but I sensed that he loved Ruth profoundly, and wanted to ensure that she would be taken care of in her last years alone.

She told me that he began to invest in coins that were advertised in magazines, that would appreciate unimaginably, and provide financial security beyond belief for anyone who possessed them.

My constant readers know that I am a skeptic. I sometimes have doubts that Thursdays will follow Wednesdays.

When Ruth died, I was informed that I was to inherit her oil painting supplies.

They hadn’t been touched in years, and were worthless to me. Imagine strangled toothpaste tubes.

I also was awarded a houseplant. It was monstrous, and I always said so, but I think

she thought I meant that it was monstrously beautiful.

Finally, I was given all of Littleton’s coins, bags and bags of them, in neat little packets. I took the bags of coins to a coin shop on Broadway in Denver, and an employee asked me where I had gotten them.

He interrupted my story and said, “May I finish for you?”

He wanted to know if I had received them from someone whose spouse had died, but beforehand made a substantial investment in coins that would appreciate unimaginably, and provide financial security beyond belief for anyone who possessed them.

“Uh, exactly.”

He smiled and said, “I’ll give you $170.”

I didn’t heed my friend’s warning about a bedroom television — but I’d like to warn you about nocturnal sales pitches for the shiny quarters of your dreams. Or nightmares.

letters to the editor we don’t need a Pottersville here

I have lived in Colorado for more than half a century, my family having been here for six generations now. I understand what makes our state a special place. My 20 years in Castle Rock have seen a railroad town grow into a modern community that has still preserved its historic ambiance and charm. But after hearing about our town council’s preliminary approval of a 200-acre monstrosity of an outlet mall abutting the very one we already have, I had an epiphany.

I saw an image of one of my favorite holiday films “It’s A Wonderful Life” flash before me. The bucolic town of Bedford Falls was overcome by the greed and competitive iron fist of the antagonist, Mr. Potter, only because goodness and reason never had a chance to preserve it.

“Pottersville” was the capitalist nightmare of business run-amok, with each street corner lit up in every imaginable flashy place of commerce, with no sense of limits or preserving the quality of life sought in quiet American towns. No sense of history or aesthetics got in the way of Mr. Potter’s idea of a town bustling with profiteering and “getting ahead.”

Only the innate sense of NOT putting money and greed before actual happiness of those citizens who lived there, destroyed the horrid Pottersville and brought back not only the lovely Bedford Falls, but all of its checks and balances of what preserves historic towns and their devoted citizens.

I hope this provides an interesting anal-

ordinance, including a former town mayor and an NRA gun instructor, and only three citizens spoke for repealing the ordinance, a decision was made to leave the ordinance in place and simply re-write it to remove control from the town manager.

In addition, a town staff survey said the overwhelming majority of town employees are in favor of keeping the ban. I should have been suspicious when newspaper reports after the meeting quoted the mayor as saying he made a mistake in his vote that night because he was “confused.”

I was at the meeting; there was no “confusion.”

sonal speech about how the idea to repeal the open carry ordinance was all his idea because he has an open carry license.

I believe the delay in making a decision and changing the text of the ordinance the night of Sept. 17 until the Dec. 3 meeting was nothing more than a ruse allowing the mayor time to “rally the troops” in support of repeal of the open carry ordinance.

I encourage you to attend the Jan. 21 Town Council meeting to speak out against this action. We do not need open carry in parks, town buildings and the Rec. Center because our mayor feels his rights are being infringed upon.

LEFT: There isn’t enough room in Larkspur Town Hall’s file room for more filing cabinets, so records are kept in stacked boxes.R IGHT: Larkspur currently has a 1,100-square-foot town hall in a house donated in 1984. More space for town records and meeting and office space, is a “dire need,” says Matt Krimmer, Larkspur’s town manager. Photos by Virginia Grantier

materials need to be removed for town council meetings and other meetings, which use that one large table. Then they need to be put back on the table after the meetings.

“It’s a cumbersome process,” Krimmer said. “We’ve just outgrown it (the building).”

He said there is more room in a crawl space and partial basement, but to get to it one has to open the trap door in the kitchen floor and then walk down a flight of stairs.

So several months ago, when town council members toured the log building that used to be the Edge Real Estate of-

Castle Rock

fice, they decided it was a good buy — and the Douglas County’s assessor thinks it’s a good buy, too, Krimmer said.

The building has such three offices, a meeting room, a reception area, a kitchen, a filing room space and room to expand. It also comes with hand-crafted wood furniture that complements the structure.

The owner, Joey Edge, co-owner of Edge Real Estate, had listed the building and one acre for $395,000, but has come down in price about 25 percent to $300,000.

Edge told Colorado Community Media the town has been good to him and his business and he thinks it would be an attractive gateway to the town and wants them to have it.

Krimmer said Edge also owns five acres behind the building on the town park’s northern boundary, which the town wants to buy so it can extend the park.

along with the rest of town council voted Dec. 20 to move forward with the leasepurchase agreement with the bank.

“Some people don’t even know we’re a town,” Been said about people who drive through.

He thinks an attractive log-building town hall, one of the first buildings people will see, will make that much more apparent.

Been said the new building with its acreage will enable the town to add another five acres to the now 10-acre park, which was built mainly with state lottery funds, and already has won a state award for being one of Colorado’s best lottery fund projects.

Krimmer said they’d hoped to complete the deal and move in before the end of 2013, but that attorneys have been slow in completing the paperwork, so a moving date is up in the air.

Krimmer said the deal the town is pursuing, a total of $500,000 for the building and land, is this: Peoples National Bank in Monument has agreed to buy the current town hall for $200,000, money the town would then use to buy the five acres. Krimmer said he will pursue grants available to towns for park and recreation purposes to get some or all of that back.

Peoples National Bank also has agreed to buy the new town hall for $300,000 and lease it back to the town for $3,300 per month for 20 years. The town would then have the option to buy the building.

Krimmer said the town has the lease money available in its budget. But again, to help with the purchase, Krimmer said he would be pursuing grants he knows of that assist municipalities with such purchases.

Parents who lose a child not alone Parker foundation provides support, memorial events

By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com Corrine O’Flynn knows all too well that the grief of losing a child is unfathomable to those who haven’t experienced it.

O’Flynn felt “isolated” after losing her daughter Rowan, who was born in December 1999 and passed away one day later from complications related to trisomy 18, a condition caused by an error in cell division.

The Parker resident lost the ability to connect with people or enjoy activities she once loved. Nothing mattered in the same way. She recalled feeling like she had nothing to lose when her friend signed her up for a therapy session with others who had lost children. O’Flynn admittedly wasn’t the “support group-type,” but it was during those first sessions that she realized she had stopped really talking to her husband.

“The isolation is huge,” she says. “It overwhelms all other feelings.”

None of the pre-natal tests indicated that anything was wrong, and the lack of online information about trisomy 18 at that time made things ever harder to comprehend. Through chat forums, O’Flynn met other parents who had lost children to the condition and started an online support organization. It was an immense success, and in 2005, O’Flynn realized she was reaching only “one small segment of the population of grieving parents.”

That was when she created the Rowan Tree Foundation, a Parker-based nonprofit that provides a platform of support for parents who have lost a child. Aside from outreach services that guide surviving loved ones through the stages of grief, the foundation sends out personalized remembrance notes. Each one is sent as a show of support during the month the parents lost their child. More than 500 were mailed this year, and they read: “We hope you find some comfort in knowing you are not alone. We are remembering with you.”

Foundation offers shared experiences Perhaps most uplifting are the organization’s two signature annual events: a butterfly release in June and candlelight vigil in December.

Both are well-attended and take place at

Caregivers Deserve A FREE Day!

Courtesy photo the Rowan Tree Foundation Angel Memorial and Healing Garden, along the Cherry Creek trail just west of McCabe Meadows Park at South Parker Road and Indian Pipe Lane. The land was donated to the nonprofit two years ago by the Town of Parker.

The butterfly release is an emotional experience, but one that is intended to help heal.

“We order monarch butterflies that are packaged individually and I read all of the children’s names, and at the end of the program, everyone opens their box and releases the butterflies into a field,” said O’Flynn, who serves as the foundation’s executive director. “A lot of people are crying at the beginning, but once they’re released, everybody is smiling.”

The shared experience is what is so valuable to O’Flynn. After all, it was bonding with others through grief that was the catalyst for the Rowan Tree Foundation.

O’Flynn’s daughter was named Rowan, a Gaelic word meaning “little red one,” but

later she discovered it is also a type of tree known to signify “strength against adversity and rebirth.”

“It also represents connection, which was perfect for our mission,” said O’Flynn, who is helped by four volunteers.

After a child passes away, local hospitals give packets to grieving parents and let them decide whether to seek sup-

Man to stand trial for chase Seven-day jury trial set for April

By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com CJ Galley, the man facing 35 charges stemming from a lengthy police chase that began in Castle Rock last February, will stand trial in April.

The 23-year-old Northglenn man, who police say fired a gun at pursuing officers while driving, has been charged with attempted first-degree murder, among many other counts, from the chase in February.

Douglas County District Court Judge Richard Caschette scheduled a seven-day trial to start at 8:45 a.m. April 8 at the Robert A. Christensen Justice Center in Castle Rock. A motions hearing, which enables attorneys from both sides to argue for and against the inclusion of evidence for trial, was set for 9 a.m. Feb. 21. Galley has pleaded not guilty.

Prosecutors are gathering files, including audio and video, from the Adams County Sheriff’s Office as they build a case against Galley’s alleged co-conspirator, David Vasquez, 24. Additional charges could be filed against Vasquez, who will appear at a preliminary hearing at 1:30

port. Whether it’s one day after a loss, one month later, or even 40 years later, as was the case with one woman, the Rowan Tree Foundation is there to help, free of charge.

For more information, call 720-5888693 or send an email to staff@rowantreefoundation.org. The foundation also has a website, www.rowantreefoundation.org, and a Facebook page.

CRL Associates Chief Operating Officer, and Denver City Council hopeful, Roger Sherman held his annual toast to the staff of The Palm restaurant Dec. 20 at the Tabor Center.

The seven-year tradition started when an unexpected winter blizzard derailed Sherman’s flight plans and cancelled his trip to Chicago. He diverted to The Palm with friend and co-worker Cathie Greig, who again joined him at the lateDecember sip soiree.

Sherman, Greig and co-workers at the local government relations powerhouse raised a glass of 2001 Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon with the staff at The Palm — from managers to dishwashers — who crammed inside the bar for the much-anticipated occasion financed by Sherman.

“We have so much to be thankful for, and this has become something we look forward to each Christmas,” Sherman said.

The toasters tipped back two jeroboam (double magnums) of the Jordan Cab.

Denver’s restaurant world was rocked Dec. 21 in the aftermath of the news of Jeff Parr’s death.

Parr, who was 43, reportedly died in his sleep Dec. 20. Leigh Sullivan, who was partners with Parr in the restaurant consultancy company Leigh Sullivan Enterprises, said that Parr wasn’t feeling well that night, went to bed and never woke up.

“He was a very happy man, so that is giving me some comfort,” said Denver chef Jenna Johansen.

Parr’s restaurant resume is extensive: Before joining Sullivan, he spent stints with Sage Restaurant Group, Loews Hotels, Qdoba Mexican Grill and Levy Restaurants (Welshire Inn and Pepsi Center).

Perhaps the most eloquent tribute to Parr came from close friend Paul “Berrick” Abramson who wrote, “God took one of the good ones from us last night. Jeffrey Parr was an amazing father and husband, a truly great friend and one of the finest human beings I’ve known. Always there with a smile, eager to help a friend or stranger, energized by being part of the community and absolutely driven, grounded and consumed by his love for his wife (Libby Pollock) and son (Brooklyn Beau, age 4).”

Tales from Transylvania Heights Young Frankenstein visits the Vintage stage

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia. com Act I, Scene 1: Transylvania Heights: We hear a funeral dirge from the live band as a procession bearing a coffin crosses at stage front. The mad scientist Dr. Victor von Frankenstein has passed on and the villagers are ecstatic. Inspector Kemp (a funny Patrick Brownson), with a jerky wooden arm and leg, tries to keep the crowd civil.

Director Deb Flomberg had to change gears in her mind, I’d think, to inhabit this warped, but entertaining world described in legends, in the novel and early films about Frankenstein. The story is continued more recently by the brilliant but wacky, Mel Brooks, who adapted his movie for the stage and wrote music and lyrics. His edgy humor pops up throughout.

Next, we meet the mad scientist’s grandson, Dr. Frederick Frankenstein (Seth Maisel), a New York science professor who insists on pronouncing the name “Fronkensteen” and assures us he is not mad.

He spars and dances with his lady love, Elizabeth (Shahara Ray), who says, “Don’t touch!” A telegram arrives, instructing him to hurry to Transylvania to claim the castle inherited from his late grandfather — or the locals will claim it instead.

Frankenstein is greeted by the castle servant: a distinctly creepy, humpbacked, cloaked Igor (skillful comic Mark Shonsey) at the train station and escorted to his castle where he is met at the huge door by Frau Blucher (Barbara Porreca), who mourns for

her late boss —“He Vas My Boyfriend.”

Soon, a buxom yodeling lab assistant, Inga (Kristi Siedow-Thompson) appears, ready to help young Frederick, should he wish to continue his grandfather’s experiments to create a monster. Of course…

Mike Kienker, with six-inch high soles on his boots, towers over everyone as the monster, causes havoc and the story progresses with song and dance numbers, choreographed by newcomer Jamie Horban.

The musical director is keyboardist Hunter Hall and there is an 11-piece band.

The newly remodeled Vintage main stage looks great, although we suspect the construction work cut into rehearsal time.

Music wasn’t as smooth on opening night as it probably will be after a week, nor was the production quite as polished as it should be.

Perhaps Mel Brooks’ script and score run a bit long, but the concept is clever — to update the legend — and Maisel is bright, agile and adept as young Frankenstein.

The production should improve with a few more run-throughs and it has some good song and dance numbers, including a tapdancing monster. Now how many times can one experience that?

“It’s been a good ride,” said painter Paul Valdez of his two-track career as a flight attendant and artist. A Parker resident since 1987, he has been traveling and painting on layovers for 38 years, he said.

About seven years If you go ago, he began to teach painting Paul J.

His all-time favorite places to paint are in Paris — where he sits outside and works, sometimes selling a work off the easel to a tourist — and in Venice, where he was painting along the edge of a canal, when a gondola passenger bought a painting.

It’s been a nice source of extra income, he said. “We had a really nice dinner that

“R & R Arch in Paris” watercolor by Paul Valdez will be in his solo show at Town Hall Arts Center Jan. 8 through Feb. 13. Courtesy photo night,” he said, reflecting on the Venice sale. His wife is also a flight attendant, gets to share some of the trips with him.

Valdez, who carries watercolors for anything over a 24-hour layover, will have a solo exhibit at Littleton Town Hall Arts Center’s Stanton Gallery from Jan. 8 to Feb. 13. There will be an artist’s reception from 5:30 to 7:70 p.m. on January 18.

Opening in the upstairs theater Jan. 17 is the comedy “Boeing, Boeing,” about a guy who is juggling three stewardess girlfriends and their various schedules. Valdez’ show is part of Stanton Gallery coordinator Nancy Boyson’s effort to relate the art to what’s showing in the theater.

When Valdez is painting along the banks of the Seine or elsewhere, tourists have often mistaken him for a Parisian, he recalls happily. He says, “I always leave a bit of soul in each (painting).” His exhibit will include paintings from Europe, a recent image of a large park in China and a few of his latest abstracts.

One abstract was influenced by a flight over Beijing, en route to Shanghai on Chinese New Year. “I could see tons of fireworks going off,” he said. “Smoke from all the firecrackers created a glowing haze that was incredibly surreal.”

His theme is “from above. Designs are everywhere, you only have to observe.”

An upcoming adventure: Valdez will conduct a painting tour to Giverny and the Monet Gardens from May 22 to 29. “I met somebody who knew somebody,” he said and was able to arrange garden painting time before and after hours — before the tourist crowds arrive. Painters will stay in a Giverny B&B for seven nights and also be transported to nearby locations to paint during the day. Estimated cost: $2,900, plus air travel to Paris. The deadline to register is Jan. 21. For information, visit Valdez’ website: pauljvaldez.com, or call Rich, 770-9773434, e-mail info@artcolony-giverny.com, or call Valdez, 303-870-5586.

They bought quarter horses in 1999 and she said, “I bet I can draw those horses.” Now, Matt runs the business side of her artwork and she draws.

Timmons soon started drawing neighbor’s horses and has plenty of models close at hand in rural Elbert County. She works from photographs and uses charcoal and wax blend Nero pencils, which come in five strengths. She draws from lunchtime to late at night, seven days a week, unless she’s traveling to horse shows. Each amazingly detailed drawing involves 150 to 200 hours of work, taking her about a month.

The couple no longer own horses, which are expensive, but depend on her horse art, which adds a plus on the ledger.

A RECORD-BREAKING RUN

McCaffrey punctuates career with another state title, more awards

By Jim Benton

jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Watching Christian McCaffrey play football reminds many people of the lyrics to the song, Mr. Touchdown USA. As Hugo Winterhalter’s tune says, “give him the ball and just look at him go.”

McCaffrey, the Valor Christian running back who has committed to play football at Stanford, was a threat each time he had the football this season en route to helping the Eagles to their fifth consecutive Colorado state championship.

And for the second straight year, the 6-foot, 195-pound senior has been named the Colorado Community Media South Metro Offensive Player of the Year.

“He has to be considered as one of the best in the state all-time,” said Valor coach Rod Sherman, whose team overpowered most of its opponents during the season.

“In the month of October he had 17 carries the entire month. He never once was frustrated with that; he never once was disappointed he didn’t touch the ball more. He was thankful his teammates got the opportunity.

“It’s his character, his leadership. He practices harder than anyone in our program and we have a lot of guys that practice hard. He’s the best practice player I’ve ever coached. On the field I think his versatility is what sets him apart from others. If we would have given him 20 carries a game I am assuming he would own every state record for rushing.”

Other players who were in contention for Offensive Player of the Year honors included ThunderRidge quarterback Brody Westmoreland, Douglas County running back Trey Smith, Cherry Creek running back Milo Hall and tackles Sam Jones of ThunderRidge and Isaiah Holland of Valor Christian.

McCaffrey rushed for 1,863 yards on 157 carries and scored 27 touchdowns during the 2013 campaign. He caught 39 passes for 721 yards and 16 TDs. He also punted nine times for an average of 41.2 yards, returned 10 punts for 296 yards and two scores and had five kickoff returns for 107 yards.

Defensively, McCaffrey was used sparingly but had one sack, three pass breakups, two interceptions and one defensive score.

A two-time Colorado Gatorade Player of the Year, McCaffrey has led Valor to state championships in each of his four seasons.

The Eagles whipped Fairview 56-16 Nov. 30 at Sports Authority Field to win their second consecutive Class 5A title and Knights defensive end Carlo Kemp was nothing

“He is the best player in the state with the way he runs and the way he fines holes,” Kemp told BoCoPreps. “He’s robotic. I don’t think he’s human. He changed the way we prepared on defense and he got the better of us.”

McCaffrey’s uncanny career statistics place him second all-time in the Colorado records books for points (848), touchdowns (141) and TD receptions (47), and first with 8,456 all-purpose yards. He also ranks first in the 11-player ranks for touchdowns and points.

“It’s been a really fun ride,” McCaffrey recounted. “I can remember back to my freshman year playing with my brother (Max) and all his buddies. I wouldn’t take

any of it back.

“I definitely feel I improved in multiple aspects this season; the experience, getting comfortable and not getting as nervous before games. I’ve gained some weight and improved on my speed and quickness.”

McCaffrey showed the ability to gain the tough yards inside the tackles and still displayed quickness and elusiveness on the outside.

“He’s the whole package,” said Sherman.

“Early in his career he was more of an edge runner. This year he’s shown he can get five yards between the tackles. He understands the difference of when to do that and when to bounce it outside.

“People often ask me if he is going to Stanford to be a running back. Absolutely he is going to be a running back. They can

Valor grad gets title shot with Auburn Kozan named to SEC All-Freshman team

By Jim Benton

jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Alex Kozan competed for a starting job on the Auburn offensive line as a true freshman a year ago but reckoned he wasn’t physically ready.

So he redshirted during the 2012 campaign and this season Kozan has been part of a solid offensive line that helped Auburn lead the nation in rushing with an average of 335.7 yards per game.

Kozan, a 6-foot-4, 297-pound, former Valor Christian standout who lives in Cas-

tle Pines North, has started all 13 Auburn games this season at left guard and was named to the Southeast Conference AllFreshman team.

After playing in three championship games with Valor and the SEC title game against Missouri with the Tigers, Kozan will line up in the NCAA championship game versus top-ranked Florida State Jan. 6 in Pasadena, Calif.

“Last year during fall camp I competed for a starting job,” recalled Kozan. “I felt mentally I was there. I knew all my assignments but I just wasn’t quite there strengthwise and athleticism-wise. That and the transition from tackle to guard made it a little tougher.

“I redshirted last year but still traveled to all the games, saw what was going on and

kind of learned what I needed to do. So I just attacked the offseason and tried to get to the point where I could become a starter and that’s what I was able to do.”

Kozan played between center Reese Dismuke and left tackle Greg Robinson this season and admits those two players helped him to make the necessary adjustments early on.

“Alex has had an excellent year,” head coach Gus Malzahn told Al.com. “He’s a great competitor. He’s a tough guy. He’s gotten better and better each game.”

Kozan, who had offers from 30 Division I schools before signing with Auburn, is part of a major Tigers’ turnaround as Auburn rebounded from a 3-9 campaign in 2012 to go 12-1 this season. According to Kozan, two games this fall provided the Tigers with the

belief they felt they needed to beat teams like No. 1 Alabama and Missouri and propel the team into the national title game.

“The second half of LSU (the lone Tigers loss) after we came out pretty flat in the first half,” said Kozan. “We competed pretty well with those guys the second half.

“And, the Texas A&M game. They were in the top 10 at the time. Johnny Football (A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel) hadn’t really been stopped by anybody. We were able to go in and execute a two-minute drive to get the lead and our defense was able to stop Manziel and we pulled out the win. That was definitely another moment when we felt like we could compete with anybody.”

Goalie gets call to join CC Tigers 19-year-old Shatzer makes mid-season move to Springs

By Jim Benton

jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Derek Shatzer has dreamed about playing hockey at Colorado College for a long time. The 19-year-old Highlands Ranch native finally has a chance to live a dream.

“I start practicing with them Dec. 29th,” said Shatzer who was a midseason addition to the Tigers’ roster to help bolster CC’s goaltending ranks.

“When one of their goalies got hurt, I happened to e-mail them and they reached out to me,” said Shatzer. “I told them I was interested and things fell into place. I couldn’t be more excited to go there.”

Freshman goalie Tyler Shatzer Marble has been sidelined after undergoing seasonending shoulder surgery and senior Josh Thorimbert has carried the load, starting 17 consecutive games. CC also has junior Courtney Lockwood on its roster.

Shatzer has yet to be told what his role will be among the Tigers goalies but he’s just happy to get the opportunity to wear a CC sweater.

“Colorado College was like a dream school for me,” he said. “I’ve always wanted to play there. It’s close to home and I have two good friends on the team. There is no other feeling like reaching your dream.”

The 19-year-old played one season with the Colorado Thunderbirds before transferring from Valor Christian High School after his sophomore year to attend Culver Academy in Culver, Ind., where he played for two seasons. For the past two years he has played for the Rochester Junior Americans, a Junior A Tier III team in the United States Premier Hockey League.

“They have watched me play since I was a U16 player with the Thunderbirds,” said Shatzer of CC. “Then when I played U18 with Culver they were always at our games.”

The 5-foot-9, 152-pound Shatzer was having a pretty good season with the Americans before getting the call to mind the Tigers’ nets. He was 6-0-1 with a 2.84 goals against average and a .911 saves percentage.

“We are pleased to have Derek joining our team and attending Colorado College,” said CC coach Scott Owens. “He’s a quality goaltender and being from the Denver area he is familiar with our program and several current players. He’s an excellent fit for Colorado College and our Tiger family.

We look forward to having him on board.”

When Shatzer played for the Thunderbirds, a Denver area Tier I program, current CC freshman players Christian Heil, Gustav Olofsson and Jacob Slavin were also on the team.

Highlands Ranch edged Archbishop Ward of Westminster, Pa., 49-47, to capture the Gray Division

McCaffrey has played behind talented offensive lines at Valor and he formed a mutual admiration society with the linemen.

“You couldn’t ask for a better and dude,” said tackle Alec Ruth. “He t re- works so hard on the field and he is probably one of the most humble

Kozan Continued from Page 16

The right chemistry

There are no statistics for offensive linemen except for maybe knockdown blocks and Kozan has averaged nearly six of those per game.

“This offensive (scheme) fits the players in our system a little better,” said Kozan. “Coach Malzahn was the offensive coordinator here two years ago and he recruited a lot of the players we have now. They actually fit his system a little better. A quarterback is a huge difference in college ball and pro ball. If we didn’t have Nick Marshall we could of have easily lost four or five games this year.

“A lot of it is just confidence. A lot of games last year I really felt that ge 17 we didn’t have a shot. Now there is a

Trail. Caroline Bryan and Kendall Bradbury each had 19 points in the 52-38 win over Cherokee Trail in the consolation title game which improved the Eagles record to 7-2 on the season.

Lutheran, ranked third in the girls Class 2A poll, improved to 4-0 by winning the Akron tourney with a 68-36 romp over Otis and a 45-33 victory over Akron. Chandler Sturms paced the Lions with 16 points in the title win over Akron on Dec. 20.

Boys basketball teams at top

Three south metro boys teams were ranked in the recent CHSAANow.com Class 5A poll with Mountain Vista (8-0) coming in at No. 5, Arapahoe (6-0) at No. 7 and Cherry Creek (62) at No. 10. Valor Christian (8-3) is the state’s topranked Class 4A team and Lutheran (4-2) is fourth in the Class 2A poll.

Mountain Vista, which is averaging 85.1 points a

game, beat Pueblo West, Smoky Hill and Widefield to win the Harrison Tournament title in games played Dec. 19- 21. Five Golden Eagle players are averaging in double figures, topped by Jake Pemberton’s 19.1 scoring average.

Arapahoe registered three wins in the Rock Canyon Winter Classic.

Cherry Creek won the Cherry Creek Holiday Classic played Dec. 19-21 with a 63-59 victory over Legend. Highlands Ranch captured third place in the tournament with a 70-62 triumph over Pine Creek.

Valor ran into tough competition in the Tarkanian Classic which was held Dec. 19-21 in Las Vegas. The Eagles (8-2) dropped their first two games of the season after beating Long Beach Poly, 67-65, to open the tournament. Chase Foster was named to the Platinum Division All-Tournament team.

dudes I’ve ever met in my life. He makes the rest of the offensive line look real good. He’s very explosive and a great overall athlete.

“He comes over and says great job, keep pounding your feet, keep working on it. He gives us recognition. He bought us dinner after our first game.”

McCaffrey, the son of former Denver Broncos wide receiver Ed McCaffrey, knows a lot of his success starts up front.

“It’s awesome especially when

you have an offensive line like ours,” said McCaffrey, who maintains a 3.65 grade point average. “You get through the hole and you just see green. It’s really fun. That’s the best feeling in the world to hit the hole and see nothing in front of you.

“I can’t thank those guys enough for what they’ve done. They make my job so easy. I look up to those guys.”

And the rest of the state, without question, looks up to McCaffrey.

new confidence. It definitely makes a difference to have confidence going into each ball game that you can win.”

Kozan is one of three Colorado players on the team preparing to meet Florida State in the BCS championship game.

Chaparral graduate Shane Callahan, a redshirt freshman reserve tackle, has played in two games.

And Daniel Carlson, of The Classical Academy in Colorado Springs, is the backup place kicker.

“There’s a little bit of difference preparing for this game,” admitted Kozan about the title tilt. “Obviously we’re going to prepare how we always prepare. Whenever you are playing in a championship game you have to have a championship mentality and you have to prepare for it every way possible to the best of your ability.

Every championship game I’ve ever been in whether it was in high school

or the SEC championship, you have to prepare for it and there’s a little extra intensity.”

Auburn will be attempting to become the first team to beat two No. 1 teams in the same season. Oklahoma came close in 1984, tying No. 1 Texas 15-15 and later toppling toprated Nebraska 17-7. Auburn, which stunned No. 1 Alabama 34-28 late in the season, will be facing Heisman Trophy winner Jameis Winston and current No. 1 Florida State.

“Jameis Winston is a great football player and our defense is preparing for him,” said Kozan. “I have confidence in their ability. He’s (Winston) going to make plays no matter who he is going against. That just shows the offense how a little more seriously we are going to have to take everything, really focusing on not making mistakes, eliminating turnovers, keeping their offense off the field and stuff like that.”

Ochitwa wins twice Annie Ochitwa of ThunderRidge won two individual events and Cherry Creek came in second in the Coaches Invite swimming meet Dec. 21 at Veterans’ Memorial Aquatic Center in Thornton.

Ochitwa won the 50

freestyle with a time of 23.52 seconds and was first in the 100 freestyle, finishing in 51:69.

Creek amassed 238 points to finish second behind Fairview.

Heritage was fourth, ThunderRidge seventh and Mountain Vista ninth in the team standings.

Ice fishing demands safety measures One of my New Year’s resolutions never changes from year to year and that is to do more ice fishing. There’s nothing like spending a quiet day on the ice to cure a good case of post-holiday cabin fever.

Most high country waters are covered with a layer of good hard ice by now while Front Range waters such as Chatfield and Cherry Creek Reservoirs are slower to produce safe ice. Any lake can have soft spots or unsafe ice but fluctuating temperatures at the lower elevations generally require more caution.

If you’re new to the sport, here are a few tips for staying safe on the ice: What is safe ice? It takes at least 2 inch-

es of hard ice to support the weight of the average person and 4 inches to support several persons. I generally like to have 6 inches of solid ice beneath my feet when venturing across a larger body of water,

but I have fished on less, making sure conditions were safe first.

It’s always a good idea to have at least one other buddy along. Carry a throw rope and stay several yards apart when traveling over untested ice. Cleats that attach to your boots are essential. They make walking over ice a lot easier and may prevent a serious fall.

A whistle and a set of safety picks around your neck are handy if you take a dip.

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF DEC 25, 2013

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) You might be busier than you had expected right now. But between the socializing rounds and the workplace tasks, there are opportunities for special moments with that certain someone.

TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Your creative approach leads to a quicker-than-expected solution to a workplace problem. Now you can devote more time to that proposal you hope to introduce by midmonth.

GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Technological glitches create problems early on. But by midweek, all runs smoothly once again, and you’re well and truly on your way to meeting all your deadlines.

GALLERY OF GAMES

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Your energy levels are high, and you feel you can handle everything that comes along. But try to take a break from your hectic pace for some quiet time with someone close to you.

LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Before you pounce on that shiny new opportunity, take more time to check it out to see how much substance actually lies beneath all that glitter. A family member has important news.

VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) A personal situation you thought was resolved resurfaces, thanks to a possibly well-intentioned move that went awry. Deal with it as soon as possible. Accept the help of a trusted friend.

LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) That goal you set way back when is finally in sight. Maintain your focus on achieving it, and don’t allow yourself to be distracted by unimportant demands for your attention.

SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) A temperamental flareup creates negative feelings that need to be dealt with immediately. But things once again go well after the apologies are made and hurt feelings are soothed.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) An early impulsive act causes confusion. But all is smoothed over once explanations are made. Expect a friend or family member to ask for your kind and always wise advice.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) You might have to do some juggling of your priorities, as a personal matter appears to require more time and attention.

Put your pride aside and accept help from those who offer it.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Your creative aspect is strong. Not only does it help you accomplish your goals, but it also inspires others. This could lead to a potentially rewarding collaboration opportunity.

PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Be careful about making major decisions when you’re not really committed to them. And resist any pressure to do otherwise. Better to delay action until all doubts are resolved.

BORN THIS WEEK: You set goals and are rarely distracted by any attempt to move you off the path you’ve chosen to reach them. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.
