Global warming out, God in for town Faith statement will be posted in council chambers By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com A stair rail in Castle Rock Town Hall has a sculpture about 8 inches high of a melting earth, with a plaque underneath it that has the words “global warming.” That’s something the town shouldn’t be financing, according to Mayor Paul Donahue — and he recommended at the July 6 council meet-

ing that the town’s Public Arts Commission, which installed it, should remove it. “It really doesn’t make sense for the Town of Castle Rock to be financing pieces of art that could advocate a certain political position, particularly on a subject that could be contentious like global warming,” Donahue said. The council consensus was to have Councilmember Clark Hammelman, the council’s art-commission liaison, discuss the issue with the commission — which decided to remove and sell the piece. Later at the meeting, the council ap-

proved another recommendation initiated by Donahue: to put the words “In God We Trust” in town council chambers. The council voted 7-0 to approve it, but before Councilmember Chip Wilson voted to OK it, he said that while he personally supported it, he expressed concern about doing something that could be contentious to some people. “I know we want to tread lightly on things that may be perceived as contentious,” he said. Wilson pointed out that while the council earlier that evening had discussed the

removal of the sculpture from town hall because it might be considered contentious, the council now was approving something that might be considered contentious by others. The placement of “In God We Trust,” as suggested by town staff and approved by council, will be on an overhang above the councilmembers and facing west toward the audience. On the overhang’s three other sides, they agreed to place the town’s motto, the date of incorporation and the state motGlobal continues on Page 14

Library archivist to retire

Rockin’ the STOCK

Woman leaves treasure trove at Castle Rock library By Virginia Grantier

This crafty steer stopped sooner than anticipated, leaving the cowboy sliding in the dirt during the steer wrestling event at the Douglas County Fair.

The Douglas County Fair and Rodeo wrapped up Aug. 11, but before the lights dimmed, professional cowboys from across the country mounted up to show ‘em how it’s done during the Partiot Rodeo on Aug 10. The Douglas County Fair and Rodeo continues to be a family tradition for area residents. Highlights included two entertainment stages, three professional rodeos, bull riding, carnival, and 4-H and FFA exhibits. Find more photos from the fair on Page 11.

Seth Coursen of Evansville, Wyo., holds on tight during his saddle bronc ride Aug. 10 at the Douglas County Fairgrounds.

She’s that 5-foot-tall woman seen for years, but hard to hear, unless you’re within whispering distance at the Philip S. Miller Library in Castle Rock. Johanna Harden, 71, speaks librarian, that precise quiet tongue of rich words, in sentences usually ended with an action — quick movements to the very shelf to the very book needed. Except that Harden often isn’t heading for a book that will change someone’s life. It might be to a 1930s-era map or an 1870sera canvas of pressed flowers, some things that can only be touched by her and never checked out by you. Don’t even try. “There isn’t enough chocolate or ice cream,” she said, with a smiling mouth but eagle eyes. But Harden, who is retiring this month after 26 years of service, is no librarian — as many library patrons may have thought she was through the years. She started out a dreamer, wanted to be a geologist or archaeologist, went to college to study clothing and textiles, ended up a seamstress making dresses in Denver out of fine Thai silk and other materials. One dress she made in particular was a joy, for a woman who she remembers looked almost beyond lovely when greeting her husband in it at Denver’s old Stapleton Airport as he arrived from military duty in Vietnam. And then when she moved to Douglas County in the 1980s with her family, Harden was still sewing and helping her husband with his business as a manufacturing representative — as well as living an outside life as a competitive horsewoman competing in trail events, riding up to 25 miles in a day. But that’s when library career started, too. But never as librarian: She was a volunteer, first, as a way to get to know her new

Bricks needed, with names, for fairgrounds Program raises funds for future needs By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com If you ever wanted your family name on a brick, and you wanted it to be there forever, on a revered spot on the Douglas County Fairgrounds, this is the time to do it. The Douglas County Fair Foundation, created to make sure the annual fair and fairgrounds have funds for future needs and improvements, is in the midst of what foundation members think is a very meaningful project that will honor various people and raise money, too — the Heritage Plaza project. The under-construction plaza has a couple purposes — to be a place to hold outdoor concerts and other events, and to be a place to honor people who have made major contributions. And it needs bricks. “The bricks is one of the coolest ideas I’ve seen,” Todd Spencer, chairman of the Douglas County Fair Board, said recently. For $250, someone can put a family member’s name, or the family business name, on a brick and become part of the memorial portion of the plaza — and help raise foundation funds. Spencer said there will be 6,000 memorial bricks when all is said and done. Spencer said the county financially supports the Douglas County Fair, although the fair generally “breaks even.” But the foundation’s funding will take care of “anything

out of the ordinary” such as unexpected expenses, “or if we need a capital project the county isn’t interested in funding,” he said. “This memorial and recognition plaza is the only one of its kind in all of Douglas County,” said Bruff Shea, the foundation’s president. Shea said generous donations were received from several businesses to start the fundraising process. Ensuring the fair and rodeo’s future is important to Shea. “The Douglas County Fair and Rodeo is a celebration for all Douglas County residents and has been a cherished event for many generations.” Foundation members recently gathered at the fairgrounds to install some brick pavers with some important names. Part of the plaza, called The Wall of Honor, will recognize distinguished men and women with a long record of service and commitment to the operation, management or financial support of the Douglas County Fair and Rodeo. Future inductees will be selected annually through a nomination process. An Aug. 11 ceremony was scheduled to honor this year’s inductees, which included John and Bea Lowell; Philip S. Miller; Mildred Stewart; Jim “Sully” Sullivan; and Gill and Cecile Whitman. The foundation was founded in 2012 and is a nonprofit corporation operated by an all-volunteer board of directors of community leaders and past and current Fair Board members. Anyone interested in helping or learning more about the foundation can get information at www.DouglasCountyFairFoundation.com.

Students, teachers share first-day excitement Rocky Heights Middle welcomes students back By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Sixth-grader Kyra Camm arrived at Rocky Heights for her first day of middle school nervous, but prepared. “I was so scared for middle school that I bought a book about it,” she said. “It said you should have at least two groups of friends so if you get mad at one group, you have another.” Fellow sixth-grader Natalie Aston, who attended Wildcat Mountain Elementary with Camm, shared Camm’s feelings of excitement and nervousness. “It feels good but it’s kinda scary,” Aston said. “I’m just excited to be in a bigger school with better lunches.” “Sometimes you got tired of the elementary school, because you just want to get older,” Camm said. “I’m most excited to meet new people and new teachers.” Almost all DCSD schools opened for the 2013-14 academic year Aug. 12, with a few charter schools starting classes Aug. 5. Rocky Heights teachers were excited, too.

Several of them gathered upstairs in the newly designed innovation lab. Last year, computers lined the walls. This year, they’re placed back-to-back in groups of three at pods that each allow three children to work together. “The innovation team is new,” teacher

Sharon Majetich said. “We’re trying a slightly more collaborative approach. We’re trying to push (students) to think a little more outside the box.” Among the team’s units is a four-week study of Colorado’s wildfires. Students will travel to the site of the 2002 Hayman fire as

CORRECTION A recent article headlined “School project is for the birds” included an error about the number of Douglas County School District facilities with a chicken coop. Cherry Valley Elementary in Franktown recently built a coop and raises chickens as part of the school’s agriculture-based curriculum.

well as the Black Forest, where wildfire destroyed more than 500 homes in June. “We’ll talk about the science of fire, the health connection, the bigger picture of how it affects the environment, the economic impact, planning ahead for fire,” Majetich said. “It’s all connected in an inter-disciplinary unit that ends with a mock trial.” The mock trial will depict what may happen to someone charged for starting a wildfire. The role of attorneys, firefighters, the Red Cross, park rangers and reporters all will be included in the unit. The team plans to bring in professionals from many of all those industries to speak to the students. “We’d also like to do something proactive,” Majetich said. “Fire can happen here in Highlands Ranch as well.” The innovation team and its fire study, with an emphasis on collaboration, is an example of the shift in education underway in the Douglas County School District. Teachers are moving away from the traditional instructional approach to lessons that emphasize the four C’s of creativity, collaboration, communication and critical thinking. The goal is to provide students with what DCSD calls “a world-class education,” designed to make them competitive in a rapidly changing and global market.

He said to most of the audiences he talks to, “it’s a foreign world to them.” And he tries to put it in terms they’ll understand, which is tough to do. “There isn’t anything to compare it to,” said Hampton about a world in which people are trying to kill each other.

Program helps small business growth Pilot plan in Parker assisting eight companies with rent By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com One year ago, Jay Moore was splitting his work weeks between a cramped home office and carefully selected mountaintops. Moore, a renowned landscape artist from Parker, still spends days at a time in picturesque locales, but has traded his home office for a professional art studio and gallery in the Victorian Peaks building on Pikes Peak Drive. Jay Moore Studio is one of the eight businesses benefiting from the Business in Transition Program, a pilot program launched by the Parker Authority for Reinvestment in July 2012. It’s designed to help small businesses expand, while filling vacant retail spaces within the Parker Central Urban Renewal District, which was established in 2009. The BIT Program — as it’s known around town — subsidizes rent expenses for businesses that might not otherwise have the financial means to move into a storefront. In the first year, 75 percent of the rent is paid, up to $3,000. It drops to 50 percent in the second year, and 25 percent in the third year. The program has proven popular. Within its first year, the $300,000 in funding has already been spoken for. The program was to be funded by a loan from the Town of Parker, but instead used money rolled over from tax-increment financing generated by new construction within the urban renewal district between 2009 and 2012. Although it has not all been spent, it has been allocated for the next three years for the eight businesses that had their applications approved. It will take a vote by the PAR board to free up more funding. Moore has been pleasantly surprised by the jump in business from the additional exposure that the groundlevel studio provides. It also enables him to host parties and showings that increase his profile. It also legitimizes a locally owned company that has done most of its business over the Internet. “Before, when it was in my house and people wanted to come see my work, it was kind of embarrassing,” Moore said. “It was like, `go past the bathroom, around the bedroom …’ ” The subsidy varies by business, but the average amount

Parker artist Jay Moore talks about one of his latest paintings at his studio on Pikes Peak Court in downtown Parker. The studio is among the eight businesses to benefit from the town’s Business in Transition program. Photo by Chris Michlewicz of assistance over the three years is $35,000 per business. John Hall, economic development director for the town, said his department will have discussions with town council this fall regarding any possible changes. They will review, for example, whether the amount of funding is appropriate and whether to cap eligible businesses at 10 employees. Each business must meet a specific set of criteria and present a business plan that shows their expansion plans. Three of the businesses moved from a home office to a retail space, while the others increased the physical size of the business. Weldy Feazell, business development officer for the town, said collectively, those businesses went from occupying approximately 2,600 square feet to more than 8,000 square feet. Hall also pointed out that vacancy rates have vastly improved along East Mainstreet, going from 21.3 percent at the end of the second quarter of 2012 to 4.2 percent at the end of the second quarter of 2013. The overall vacancy rate for the urban renewal district hasn’t changed significantly because it includes developments like Parker Square, which still has a high number of empty spots. Moore, who had his eye on the studio for five years, said the entire BIT Program process took two months. He renovated the former fly fishing shop and added a display wall that divides the studio into the ideal gallery and work space.

Body found at fire scene

A NIGHT OUT

Officials release little information after blaze By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com

Castle Rock police and firefighters spent time Aug. 6 feeding and instructing the public, including putting on the ever-popular police dog demonstrations. The event, at the town’s Festival Park near Second and Perry streets, also offered tours of the police department; car-seat-safety demonstrations by firefighters; and the chance to examine police and fire vehicles. This was one of many such events throughout the nation, part of the National Night Out movement. Here, Castle Rock Police Cmdr.

CRIME BRIEFS Cash taken from lockers

Two 16-year-old males, one from Castle Rock, one from Denver, reported that cash was stolen from their unlocked lockers at the Castle Rock Recreation Center, 2301 Woodlands Blvd., sometime between 10:30 a.m. and 11:36 a.m. on July 22, according to a Castle Rock police report. One person reported that $100 in various denominations was taken from his wallet, and the other reported a $20 bill had been taken from his wallet. They told police they didn’t see anyone near their lockers.

Broncos mats, other items taken

A 45-year-old Castle Rock woman who lives on Peachtree Circle told police that items were stolen from her unlocked garage and unlocked vehicle, including Jeep brand floor mats with Denver Broncos emblems on them, her Jeep owner’s manual, and tools, clothing and swim gear sometime between 11:30 p.m. July 22 and 6:30 a.m. July 23. Bicycles and expensive golf clubs weren’t taken. And although the door to the house was unlocked, she doesn’t think her house was entered, according to the Castle Rock police report.

Computer stolen from car

A $2,000 Hewlett-Packard computer and other miscellaneous items were reported stolen from an unlocked car in an open garage on Mount Royal Drive sometime between midnight and 7 a.m. on July 23, according to a police report. The victim, a 46-year-old Castle Rock man, told police he went to bed and left his Toyota Camry in the garage unlocked with the garage open. At 7 a.m., he observed that his glove box and center console were open and rummaged through, and then he noticed things missing. In addition to the computer, gone were an iPhone charger,

a wallet with items valued at $10, a Social Security card and a plastic bag containing $15 in change.

An autopsy was to take place Aug. 7, to determine the identification and cause of death of an adult person found after an Aug. 6 Sedalia house fire, but there won’t be information available for some time. Douglas County Coroner Lora Thomas said today on Aug. 8 that there wouldn’t be anything to report for about two weeks. And Becky O’Guinn, South Metro Fire District spokeswoman, said investigators still didn’t know what caused the fire and that the investigation is continuing. The person who lived in the home, in the 2400 block of Colorado 67, hasn’t been located, “as far as I know,” said Sgt. Ron Hanavan, a Douglas County Sheriff’s Office spokesman. But Hanavan said at this point, the sheriff’s office wasn’t releasing the name of the home’s occupant.

Woman reports loan fraud

A 42-year-old Castle Rock woman reported that $361 was withdrawn from her bank account after a man called her at 3:45 p.m. July 30 saying he was an attorney and she was being sued by a payday loan company, and that she owed that money for the cost of the lawsuit, according to a police report. She said she gave the suspect, who called himself “Anderson,” her bank card information, but after talking to him realized she had not done any business with any payday loan companies in Colorado. But when she called her bank, the transaction had already gone through. The bank told her this was a common type of fraud, returned the funds to her account and she canceled the account.

Construction sites vandalized

Three construction sites were vandalized in one week in Douglas County between July 24 and 31, according to the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. A total of $1,600 in construction tools including a laser level, receiver, tripod and measuring stick were taken from a construction trailer sometime between the close of business July 24 and the morning of July 25 in the 8300 block of S. Valley Highway in Inverness. Five nights later, undisclosed equipment and a data log were stolen from a job site on the 4700 block of North Colorado 83 in Franktown. Sometime overnight on July 30, someone drove through a fence at a site in the 500 block of Happy Canyon Road in Castle Pines and proceeded to steel the wheels off a front loader and remove a key from the glovebox of the broken-down vehicle.

The body was found after the earlymorning fire — which destroyed the house — was extinguished and it was deemed safe for firefighters and investigators to enter, according to a Douglas County sheriff’s press release. The cause and origin of the fire was being investigated and “preliminary information does not indicate foul play,” according to a press release. A neighbor who is a volunteer firefighter reported the fire about 5 a.m. after that neighbor and others smelled smoke and went “to check it out,” said O’Guinn. The house, located about a mile up a one-lane dirt road off Colorado 67, was difficult to access and water wasn’t available. Tankers had to transport water from the Woodbine Ecology Center, which is about 1.5 miles away from the home, as well as getting water from other locations, O’Guinn said. Hanavan said fire departments that responded included West Douglas, Franktown, Castle Rock, Jackson 105 and South Metro.

opinions / yours and ours

Circumstances change, but character shouldn’t Stuff happens, right? I mean, when we least expect change, it happens. Sometimes we are caught off-guard by awesome and wonderfully unexpected good news. And when that does happen, we never really have to worry about how we respond or react because in most cases we are smiling and enjoying the moment. And then there are those other times, when we least expect it, that our world gets turned upside-down in a flash. Have you ever been there, cruising along based on plans, commitments and expectations, and then all of sudden … WHAM … right between the eyes we get hit with a curve ball? Stuff happens, and it happens to all of us at some time or another. The difference is how we actually respond to the immediate shift in our course. Our character can be found in how we respond when faced with challenges or changes, especially when they come upon us out of the blue. If you have ever been faced with a sudden change or shift, or maybe even if you are

experiencing it right now, I want to share a simple philosophy with you that may help. I call this the “Cadence of Change,” and the “cadence” acronym stands for: Communication goes both ways, and in times of change we need to make sure we have expressed ourselves clearly and that we understand what is being shared; miscommunication often makes change worse. Authority means we have to stay in control; we are in charge of how we respond or react. If we allow other people or circum-

stances to dictate how the changes surrounding us impact our demeanor, we will never be in a position to maintain control. Decisions or lack of decisions often leave us paralyzed, and instead of taking action, we leave the decisions to others and again find ourselves being directed or driven by the motives of someone else. In times of change, it is critical to be in control of our own decisions. Expectations properly set are expectations that have a better chance of being realized. Many times our emotions and subsequent actions or reactions stem from misleading ourselves from the beginning. Stretching ourselves through dreams and goals are awesome, and realistic expectations are the foundation that ground us during times of change. New Paradigm — The definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over and expecting different results. All of us should be open and willing to think differently and see things through objec-

Hardball topics are mostly out of my league I have written some hardball columns, but invariably I throw them away. I have written about guns, politicians, Al Sharpton, abortion, same-sex marriages, and even about rodeos, but I am never satisfied afterward. Maybe it’s because I know there is nothing I can say that will make any difference. I might affect a handful of readers, but everyone else has made up their mind, or isn’t listening. When I heard that part of the state wanted to leave the state, I realized that I don’t really know Colorado. I know I live in a very sophisticated county. I now know that there are many very unsophisticated counties, and that the locals are perfectly happy with that, living partly in the 19th century. And they’re not perfectly happy with the rest of us. I don’t think they have our disparity in New Hampshire. The governor can give one-size-fits-all speeches. Hickenlooper has to be mindful of what goes on in Denver and Boulder, and Rico and Brush too. There’s another reason why I have thrown away hardball columns. Like I said, I am never satisfied afterward, and there’s more to it than that. I don’t feel good. I think I am intelligent and objective, but when I see what others believe and do, I grind my teeth and feel it’s best to keep some things to myself, and leave those topics to commentators who can sleep at night after what they have expressed dur-

harvey dancing to tea Party tune

So, state Sen. Ted Harvey has the dubious title of “honorary chairman” for a national super PAC set on stopping a run to the White house for Hillary Clinton. Really? This early in the game this elected state official is going to spend time doing the mean-spirited work of the Tea Party? With all the serious issues to be dealt with, one has to wonder who is Sen. Harvey really working for, ‘cause it isn’t the people of Colorado. However, this super PAC (can we say outside funding provided by the likes of the Koch brothers?) is in keeping with the U.S. House of Representatives. Shortly after President Obama’s healthcare plan passed, the Tea Party arose. Mitch McConnell declared the sole purpose of the Republican Party was to insure that President Obama was not re-elected. And so nothing has been accomplished by the worst House in U.S. history. Some believe this was another way of declaring there won’t be a black man in the White House. Well that didn’t work out quite the way they planned. And now there might be a woman in the White house! Quick, dig up Vince Foster and every other Clinton scandal. While there is no question that Eisenhower Republicans bemoan the loss of their party to the minority Tea Party, there is no doubt the money will pour in from Koch and company to besmirch a former president’s wife, a former U.S. senator and former secretary of state. One can only hope Harvey and company’s efforts will prove as futile as McConnell’s were. Denis Gessing Castle Rock

non-partisan election, the candidates should stand on their own, not because they support the ideology and principles of the Republican Party. The candidates should be out talking to the parents in the district they live in, not being endorsed by a political party. The candidates should have a clear commitment to serve our schools and understand the fiscal limitations imposed on the district. They should be committed to the students to provide the best education possible and not bend to the powers of Mr. Craig Steiner. I believe that Douglas County residents should look at and give careful consideration as to who was endorsed and who was not and become better acquainted with the candidates and vote their own conscience, not that of a political party.

ousting union was right move

What a relief to read the letter written by Louie Lee of Castle Pines Village on the wonderful merits of our Douglas County Schools. Instead of the organized letter writing by the union thugs who organized anti-Douglas County Schools letters to the editor, it was a relief to read the truth on what the current administration is doing to encourage teachers to be rated on their results with our children’s education. In other words, the better the results the better the pay. That is the way it is in the real world. A good dedicated worker does not need a union crutch to determine their pay. Tenure does not cut the mustard. The DCSD needs to be congratulated on kicking the union out and keeping excellent teachers based on their talent. Keith Wanklyn Highlands Ranch

Student-loan plan shows bipartisan work On July 1 of this year, Congress’ partisan gridlock and inability to come together for the sake of the American people was on full display when it allowed the rates for subsidized Stafford loans for college students to double from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent without any legislative remedy. This comes at a time when tuition rates are rising uncontrollably. In fact, over the last 10 years tuition rates have far outpaced inflation. During that time the economy has experienced an average inflation rate of 2.5 percent while the average annual tuition increase at a four-year public university has been double that at 5.2 percent. College seniors today are graduating with an average student loan of $27,000. On May 23, I supported H.R. 1911, the Bipartisan Student Loan Certainty Act of 2013, when it was passed in the House. H.R. 1911 added stability to educational loans in a fiscally responsible way by fixing the rate to the 10-year Treasury note. However, once the bill passed the House and was sent over to the Senate, certain senators on the other side of the aisle made unreasonable demands that not only went

contrary to the president’s stated objectives, but were fiscally irresponsible. After months of partisan wrangling within the Senate, last week the House of Representatives passed, with my support, the Senate amendment to H.R. 1911. I am pleased the Senate agreed with our approach that will give students the clarity and security they need while balancing the duty of Congress to be good stewards of taxpayer money. The final legislation, supported by the majority of the House and Senate, moves all new student loans (except Perkins loans) to a market-based interest rate while allowing interest rates to be reset once a year. Interest rates would be set using the

following formulas: Undergraduate Stafford Loans (both subsidized and unsubsidized) will be based on the 10-year Treasury note (which on August 1 was 2.74 percent) plus 2.05 percent, capped at 8.25 percent. Graduate unsubsidized Stafford loans will be based on the 10-year Treasury note plus 3.6 percent, capped at 9.5 percent, and PLUS loans (both parent and graduate student) will be based on 10-year Treasury note plus 4.6 percent, capped at 10.5 percent. These are commonsense formulas will provide students with affordable interest rates while maintaining the financial integrity of the federal student loan structure. As I alluded to earlier, this plan is similar to one supported by the president in his budget proposal. He agrees with the House that it is imperative Congress remove itself from the annual debate on interest rates so students can focus on getting an education rather than worrying about politicians in Washington, D.C. I hope President Obama acts quickly and approves the proposal that aids our students struggling in this economy.

Congress has been plagued with gridlock, so I am very pleased that Republicans and Democrats were able to come together to do something good for students while at the same time securing our future economic growth. However, we need to do more. When we subsidize student loan interest rates, we are investing in our future by sending highly trained and productive citizens out into the workforce and entrusting them with the levers of our economy. If we want to ensure a vibrant economic future, I hope that Republicans and Democrats can come together with the same spirit of bipartisanship that successfully addressed the loan rates and finally tackle the other national problems like debt, deficits, as well as entitlement and tax reform in the same cooperative manner.

way and cause people to make bad decisions. The U.S. equity markets have hit highwater marks in most of July. It was also

the month of July that recognized record deposits from investors into stock mutual funds. Sometimes this can be called “chasing returns.” In reality, the average investor’s emotions change at some point from fear of losing principal to fear of missing out on gains. This causes a behavior that is less than optimum, such as buying high and selling low. This was brought to light again in a recent Dalbar ¹ study measuring investor returns compared to the stock market. The study shows that investors in U.S. stock mutual funds earned an average annualized return of 4.25 percent over the last

20 years. For that same time period, the Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index returned 8.21 percent annualized. While we know one cannot invest directly in the S&P 500, this is a common benchmark for domestic stock equities. The question is, what caused these investors to miss out on almost double the return? The answer lies in watching investor behavior when there is no formal portfolio strategy based on appropriate risk and time frame. Without an Invest-

This is happening again because of Taste co-founders John DeLay, owner of Pegasus Restaurant in Castle Rock, and his longtime food friend, Mike Boyle, a former restaurant owner and current Denver radio and television personality. “We were a committee of two,” DeLay said. Boyle said when he first moved to Colorado, “you could pretty much starve to

death out here … There were only a couple restaurants in town.” But Boyle said there is now a “nice variety” of restaurants that deserve some recognition. He and DeLay decided the county could support a nice food festival and he thinks it has become a great one. For $10, the price for advance tickets, and $5 for children ages 6-12, attendees can get samples from 50 restaurants, beverages included. And because it’s held on a Thursday instead of the busy weekend, chefs and

owners are able to leave their restaurants and be at the event. There will also be live entertainment and the lineup of 2014 Harley-Davidson motorcycles will be on display. The Douglas County Events Center, at 500 Fairgrounds Drive, is located off Interstate 25 at Exit 181. Head east on Plum Creek Parkway to the Douglas County Fairgrounds. Tickets are $20 at the door, but only $10 in advance — if bought by Aug. 18. For more information, go to www.tasteofdouglascounty.com.

goal is so important. Another recent characteristic in investor behavior is searching for yield. Many folks are fed up with no interest being credited to their savings and money market accounts. This causes them to take on more risk in search of higher yields. The assumption is that savers deserve to earn something on their money. In reality, yields on short-term fixed-income accounts rarely pay more than current interest rates or inflation. Based on the current interest rate environment, income assets producing higher yields are likely invested in riskier bonds. Therefore a better strategy may be to see if you should add a diversification through other asset classes besides only those paying income. For immediate reserves, liquidity should be the main focus,

not return. There are many emotional trends being explored in investor behavior. This is one factor that adds to market volatility when there is no fundamental reason for markets to rise or fall on any given day. Often it is the perception of how markets will react that causes volatility, rather than fact. A recent example is the Federal Reserve announcement that drove both the bond and stock market down in June. There was no change in the commentary, but many investors perceived that it was time to pull out of bonds in case the Fed started tapering their easing program. Since no one can predict the stock market, much less the behaviors of emotional investors, it is even more imperative that serious investors build a strategy for pru-

dent, diversified investing first. 1.

The last weekend of the 2013 Douglas County Fair started off with an Aug. 10 parade seen by several thousand people lining Wilcox and Perry streets in downtown Castle Rock. At the fair, one of the day’s highlights included the triumphant tractor pull of Douglas County Commissioner Jack Hilbert, who beat out mighty competition in the county-commissioner tractor pull category.

Ed tech director gets world spotlight McMonagle sees rapid changes in teaching, learning By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com When Kim McMonagle talks about how technology is changing education, she exudes a contagious level of excitement. As the Douglas County School District’s director of educational technology, part of her job is to infuse teachers with some of that same enthusiasm. Her success in doing so recently earned her the international spotlight as a speaker at the largest online education conference. McMonagle was among 12 teachers worldwide who spoke during the Aug. 7 Edmodo. com conference. Edmodo, often called the Facebook of education, is a learning site that offers teachers and students a collaborative learning experience. McMonagle’s presentation focused on

how teachers can use Edmodo and other online resources to prepare students for science, technology, engineering and math (STEM)-related careers. But Edmodo can be used with any subject. It’s the way of the future, McMonagle believes. “When I look back at what we were doing in 2005, it’s almost nothing compared to what we are doing in the world of education today,” she said. “All McMonagle of these tools have gotten so much easier. Teachers are starting to create online virtual learning experiences. It’s allowing them to differentiate and change the way we teach and learn.” Unlike Facebook, Edmodo and similar sites like Schoology are restricted to participants and parents, who can log in to check their students’ progress and communicate with teachers. In 2010, DCSD set up its own Edmodo

account. It’s an option particularly appealing to elementary school teachers, more and more of whom are using the site to supplement the classroom experience. “What’s really evolved since 2010 is having our students have an authentic voice in their learning and really sharing deeply what they think and understand about their learning,” McMonagle said. “We call it giving voice to all the participants in the classroom. When we think about what’s changed in education, if a teacher asked a question, you let two or three students respond and you move on. What happens to the voices of the other 25 students?” In a virtual Edmodo classroom, all students can chime in with responses and ask questions. It also allows teachers and students to connect to Edmodo participants around the world. McMonagle used ecosystems as a topic ripe for a broader debate. A teacher, she said, “can post, `I’m looking for another classroom somewhere in the world that’s

going to be posting about ecosystems. That (discussion) can get to economics, lifestyles, where are good places in the world to live. One topic can go cross-curricular.” The change in educational style “is coming at teachers fast and furious,” McMonagle said. “If you’re new to technology, it can feel overwhelming. How we support our teachers is huge right now.” And that’s where people like McMonagle and events like the Edmodo.com conference play vital roles. In 2012, 12,000 educators from 50 states and 117 countries registered for the conference. That worldwide link, reflected not only in the conference participants but in the program itself, delights McMonagle. “It’s the idea that we’re so globally connected,” she said. “The world is flat. It’s easy to connect. We’re neighbors.” McMonagle also recently earned state recognition as the 2013 winner of the Colorado Association of Leaders in Educational Technology’s Outstanding Technology Administrator Award.

Teachers, parents scold school board Officials depart from typical limits on time for speakers By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Douglas County School Board members listened in silence as teachers and parents berated them during their Aug. 6 meeting for their perceived role in recent teacher resignations and flagging staff morale. A half-dozen people from among the standing-room-only crowd spoke in support of the board, while the board heard at length from more than twice as many angry, sometimes tearful, critics. In a departure from standard procedure, the board allowed speakers to talk past the two-minute time limit and board members did not respond to the comments. Though Douglas County School District statistics still show teacher turnover in the normal range, speakers said teachers are leaving because of the board’s educationreform measures. Those include a pay-for-performance program based on a controversial teacher

evaluation system, and a market-based pay scale. “Most teachers in Douglas County are looking for a way out of the mess you created,” said departing Rock Canyon High School teacher Suzi McKay, who said she received a “highly effective” rating during her recent evaluation. “For some, the promise of the elections is enough to keep them hanging. They are tired of being disparaged, mocked, demonized, lied about, sabotaged and ignored. While you manipulate the numbers … and tell the press there’s no morale problem, we all know teachers are leaving in droves. “A growing percentage of our community is smarter than you think, more organized than you realize and angrier than you know. November is coming. And this community has had enough.” Four seats on the seven-member board expire in November. Board member Doug Benevento, whose term is among those that expire, said after the meeting that facts don’t support the statements. “The data all indicate something different,” he said. “A state-run survey indicates

the vast majority of teachers are more satisfied with their work in Douglas County than any other district in the state. Their morale and satisfaction with the district has increased over two years. We know for a fact academic achievement is better than it was four years ago.” But, he said, “In an organization of this size, you’re not going to be able to make everybody happy.” Of the Douglas County educators who took the state-run Teaching, Empowering, Leading and Learning (TELL) survey, 84.7 percent agreed their school is a good place to work and learn. The survey also showed 22 percent of DCSD teachers — more than twice the state average — planned to leave the district or leave education entirely. Many teachers also say the TELL survey results only reflect conditions at the school level, and that satisfaction with the district and its leadership is poor. They expressed that dissatisfaction to cheers and applause at the meeting. Brian White, who left ThunderRidge High School to teach in Littleton Public Schools, said district leaders don’t appear

to care why teachers are leaving. “The climate created by the board and central administration sucks the life out of teaching,” he said during the Aug. 6 meeting. “All of you are aware of the morale problem in Douglas County and not a single one of you have done anything to correct it.” Others said the board is moving forward with a corporate education-reform agenda that doesn’t put students’ interests first. “The voices of those closest to our students — the parents and teachers — are being ignored,” said former Saddle Ranch Elementary teacher Maria Lauer. “District leadership has decided that ideology and national attention are more important than what happens with our young minds.” Kelsey Alexander, former chair of the Douglas County Republicans, was among the smaller group that praised the board. “We just want the best curriculum and the best teachers,” she said. “So I want to thank you for giving an incentive system to encourage all teachers to be that great teacher … through your pay-for-performance program.”

Julie Keim’s passion for education grew out an almost-missed diagnosis of her oldest child. Teachers in another school district initially suspected the shy, socially awkward boy suffered from an autism spectrum condition. Keim and her husband rejected that idea, and teachers later realized their son was gifted and talented. Last spring, he graduated a year Keim early from Castle View High School. That experience showed Keim the power of the parent voice in education. Now she wants to take her years of involvement a step further, serving on the Douglas County School Board. Keim is the third candidate running for the District D seat, now occupied by Carrie Mendoza. Kevin Leung and Stephen Boyd also seek the post; Mendoza has not yet indicated if she will seek re-election. A parent of three, Keim served on Larkspur Elementary’s Parent Teacher Organization board after the family moved there in 2004. More recently, she helped launch parent involvement organizations at Castle Rock Middle and Castle View High schools. During the last two years of her work in schools, Keim noticed a shift in teachers’ at-

titudes. “Ours teachers and administrators were really struggling with how to absorb one budget cut after another,” she said. “The failure of the mill levy and bond issues was very demoralizing for our educators.” A certified professional accountant by trade with experience auditing school districts, Keim also recently started looking into the district’s financials. She doesn’t like what she found there. “I am concerned that the district does not have a sufficient grasp on its financial position and the impact that has on our students,” Keim said. Her concerns include a fund balance she believes is unnecessarily high and the accuracy of some financial statements, upon which she publicly commented in a July 2013 Denver Post guest column. DCSD leaders say their conservative budgeting approach is a safeguard against financial pitfalls endured by other districts and organizations. Keim also doesn’t support the district’s current style of site-based budgeting that allows principals to decide how to spend money designated to their schools. Instead, she suggests a collaborative process that includes district leaders well-versed in finance. “They’re trying to create choice and innovation in our schools, and we’re asking them to also run a business,” Keim said. “Yet most of them don’t have any experience in business. If I were the CFO, I’d have budget staff sit down with those principals and ask, `How can we fund you so you can be the most successful school?’”

community, at the little storefront that served as a Parker library. “I did story time, shelved books, did displays, helped people find things …,” she said. But she noticed books needed mending and she was a mender — but of clothes, not old books. “I taught myself to do it,” she said, about dealing with the chain stitching, cheese cloth, liner paper, end sheets and other parts of old roughly handled books. Through the years, taking care of old books would lead to learning to care for old things, historic things, and becoming eventually a trained archivist who will leave behind a large legacy, literally. With her efforts, and the essential help of others, she was on the ground floor of creating the Douglas County History Resource Center that started with eight donated boxes of items, Harden said. And it has grown to include, at Castle Rock’s library, a temperature-controlled 500-square-foot vault with its own firesuppression system containing thousands of pictures, books, maps that everyone uses — from land planners, to historians and authors, students and people in search of information about great-great-grandma. “Now, as Johanna’s retirement approaches, the Douglas County History

Downtown Parker set for Solheim Flags, shuttles are among means to welcome visitors By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com

The anticipated arrival of 120,000 visitors has downtown Parker businesses going all out for the occasion. Thousands of international visitors and American golf fans will descend on the town for the Solheim Cup, a U.S.-vs.Europe women’s golf tournament at the Colorado Golf Club Aug. 13-18. Businesses rst ar-began hanging decorations and placing flags along Mainstreet the week of Aug. 5, oject. and Big Plan Creative, a company hired by the Town of Parker, painted festive Solheim Cup signs on shop windows Aug. 6-7 to welcome the out-of-towners. Restaurants are altering their menus, offering specials to those who wish to try the local fare, and adorning their patios with international flags and golf-themed signs. Likewise, stores are loading up on extra merchandise in preparation for the expected increase in customers. Laurie Womer, owner of Mainstreet Flower Market, said she is planning to double her orders of “grab-and-go” flowers and roses in the hopes that fans will want to give them as gifts to their favorite players. Although she is not sure what to expect, Womer says the prospect of more consumer traffic has everyone eager to put their best foot forward. “I’m excited to see all the different kinds of people coming through from all over,” Womer said. Local home care company To The Rescue is operating six shuttles that will take spectators from the course to the downtown area and back. Another set of shuttles will take them from downtown to a shuttle lot at Salisbury Park. The idea is to provide a means for fans to easily go out to dinner or shop without having to navigate unfamiliar roadways, said Sara Crowe, owner of Events Etc., an event planning company

Former Secret Service agent to talk about JFK Will give presentation at Highlands Ranch Historical Society By Ryan Boldrey

Lisa

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Jerry Blaine has been a lot of things in his life — a sailor, a student, and a Secret Service agent assigned to three U.S. presidents, including John F. Kennedy. It’s the three years he spent with Kennedy that were documented in his New York Times best-seller “The Kennedy Detail,” and in the upcoming film due out in 2014. The 1950 Englewood High School graduate and Korean War veteran has spent a lot of time discussing his book since it was released in 2010, but says he has just one presentation left in him. Because of his local roots, he will give that presentation to the Highlands Ranch Historical Society at 7 p.m. Aug. 19 at Southridge Recreation Center, 4800 McArthur Ranch Road in Highlands Ranch. The PowerPoint presentation will be followed with a question-and-answer period as well as a book signing. The talk, he said, will focus on the difference — from the Secret Service perspective — of the Eisenhower pres-

While some of what may be holding Blaine back is an unwritten code between agents never to discuss First Family matters openly, he said he was compelled to write the book a few years back after “the conspiracy theorists began to kidnap history.” “It was time to put together the facts of what happened. That’s why I wrote the book,” he said. “We knew from the day after Kennedy was elected we were working under a different circumstance than we were working under with Eisenhower.” Blaine, who saw the president for the last time when he left Fort Worth for Dallas the day he was shot, will address the assassination, and said he is happy to answer questions surrounding all of the theories that have circled it for the last 50 years. “We were always concerned about a sniper, because he was so vulnerable,” Blaine said. “He was so unpredictable he was predictable as far as going into crowds, and he loved the open-top limousine in parade situations. ... It was very difficult to stomach.” To RSVP for the Aug. 19 event, please email hrhistoricalsociety@ comcast.net.

idency and the Kennedy presidency, the Bay of Pigs, Cuban Missile Crisis, and the personal relationship he developed with the Kennedy family. He will also talk about the differences in the Secret Service between then and now. Blaine, who was hired by the service in 1959 after earning a business degree from the University of Colorado, was the first agent assigned to the Kennedy detail and joined the president-elect in Palm Beach, Fla., the day after the 1960 election. “Being the first agent on regular detail with him, I had quite a bit of interaction with him. I had a lot more after he hit me in the head with a golf ball,” he said. “If he wasn’t tied up in the affairs of state, he would stop by the post and shoot the breeze. He was very personal that way.” And while Kennedy was extremely personal with Blaine and the other agents, one thing Blaine won’t discuss in the presentation and does not address in his book is the personal affairs of the president — something that has been heavily documented, and not all of which Blaine says is anywhere near close to the truth. “A lot of it is exaggerated, including the Marilyn Monroe thing, which is blown way out of proportion,” he said. “It didn’t define the Kennedy administration.”

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Lone Tree residents who cheered news of Cabela’s decision to locate there may feel less enthusiastic this weekend. Anticipated grand-opening weekend traffic promises to congest the RidgeGate Parkway and Interstate 25 interchange from Aug. 14-18, before tapering off to a calmer level. The grand opening is at 11 a.m. Aug. 15. Cabela’s cardholders are invited into the store a day early, on Aug. 14. Cabela’s, city police and several other local agencies are working together to minimize traffic impacts, supplying shuttle service to and from an overflow parking lot. Though the Cabela’s lot includes 538 parking spaces, company officials believe it will be full by 9 a.m. Aug. 15, its grand opening day. Based on previous Cabela’s grand openings, they anticipate the same situation on both weekend days. An overflow parking lot will be ready for those customers at Havana Street and RidgeGate Parkway, east of I-25.

Three shuttles will transport people from the lot to the store. Between 4,000 and 5,000 cars — or 10,000 to 12,000 people — are expected daily on Aug. 15, 17 and 18. Dense retail traffic is something with which Lone Tree cops have ample experience. “We consider it like a Black Friday or an IKEA opening, but on the right side of the city,” said Lone Tree’s business development coordinator Torie Brazitis. The traditional oversized pair of scissors won’t be required for Cabela’s grand opening. Instead, an archer will shoot an arrow through the ribbon. The Thornton store will open simultaneously. Speakers at the Lone Tree grand opening include location Cabela’s Chief Operations Officer Michael Copeland, Lone Tree Mayor Jim Gunning and the store’s general manager, Karen Koons. Cabela’s founders Mary and Dick Cabela will sign autographs in the afternoon. Celebrities from the “Swamp People” and “Bone Collector” television series and country music star Justin Moore also will appear at the Lone Tree store opening. Gift cards and merchandise will be awarded to the first customers through the doors Aug. 15, 16, 17 and 18. Lone Tree police advise local drivers to use alternate routes during the grand opening weekend.

Running on battery power Pitcher-catcher combos make the difference in high school softball By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Most good high school softball teams are built around solid batteries. In other words, the combined effectiveness of a pitcher and catcher. You can’t have one without the other. “If your pitching and catching is solid, you have any kind of decent coaching, you should win more games than you lose, and with a little luck you should win much more than you lose,” said Ponderosa coach Toby Tabola. “It starts there,” he continued. “You can’t forget the catcher. You can’t have these great pitchers without a re-

ally good person to receive the ball. There have been times where I have not been able to allow a pitcher to throw a particular pitch because it’s too hard for the catcher to handle.” Tabola’s daughter, Caley Mitchell, is head coach at Castle View. “I absolutely believe in the importance of a great pitcher and catcher,” said Mitchell. “If you have a solid hitting team and good defense you may be still able to win games, but you won’t go further than that. The defense can only do so much if you don’t have a pitcher to keep girls off base. “Catchers are just as important. Your pitcher can be great, but if you don’t have a catcher that can handle her, you are going to have problems. The catcher commands the field, she needs to be heads-up on every play, as well as be a coach for the pitcher.” Castle View and Ponderosa have two of the league’s top pitchers in the Sabercats’ junior Savannah Heebner and the Mustangs’ Ally Power, also a junior. Heebner won 13 games with 145 strikeouts and a 1.49 earned run average. Power won 14 games last season with 208 strikeouts and a 1.69 ERA. Junior Sarah Carpenter will be Power’s battery-mate after taking over the starting catching duties late last season. Senior Morgan Trujillo will be behind the plate catching Heebner. Catchers are the team leaders, setting the tone for the team and often calling timeouts to visit with pitchers to avoid a visit to the mound by a coach. “I would say the catcher is the leader on the field,” said Power. “Yeah, you listen to her. It’s very important to have confidence in your catcher. “Talks between my catcher and I are really team decisions. We discuss it and normally agree with the changes. Sarah did her job well last season.” Trujillo admits it is sometime hard for a catcher to be a leader. “In the beginning it was a challenge,” said Trujillo. “Then I realized I was involved in every single play, I’ve really got to step up my leadership role. From that point on, I love doing it. “Sometimes girls on your team just hate being told what to do. In reality you are just trying to say `let’s get back on track and we need to come together as a team.’ “Savannah has always been a stud,” continued Trujillo. “She’s getting looked at a lot by big schools. I look at myself and say she couldn’t be where she is today if she didn’t have a catcher. I’m just not talking about me but every other catcher that’s she’s experienced along the way. Without that catcher, she would be pitching to the backstop.” Castle View and Ponderosa are expected to be two of the Continental League’s strongest teams this season. Defending league champion Rock Canyon returns seven starters and the Jaguars are the team to beat. Mountain Vista, Legend and Douglas County should have a say in which team wins the league title.

Runners fuel up for the long haul Cross country athletes urged to stay hydrated, get enough calories By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Cherry Creek’s Jordyn Colter appeared to ready to capture her second consecutive Class 5A individual state cross country championship last October when she collapsed and didn’t finish the race. It was learned that Colter had low sodium and potassium and her white blood cell count was high, but seeing one of the state’s top runners break down scared many cross country runners to pay more attention to nutrition and hydration. Two months after her scare at the state cross country meet, Colter ran fourth in the national Foot Locker Cross Country Championships in San Diego. She won the 800and 1,600-meter runs at the Class 5A state track meet last May and was third in the 3,200-meter run. “She looks strong and healthy,” Creek girls cross country coach Holly Lane said of Colter, who is a junior this season. Lane and boys coach Ethan Dusto view what their runners eat and drink. “Some of them sort of have a misconception,” said Lane. “They don’t realize how many calories they’re burning off during

training and they don’t realize how many calories they should be taking in. “During track season a few years ago, Ethan made them keep journals just so they could keep track of what they were eating so we could make sure they were eating enough. We had a nutritionist come speak to them during our summer running camp to emphasize how important proper nutrition is because you need that fuel for your body to go.” Sometimes, even with journals, it’s tough to monitor the food and water intake of runners. “We try to make sure they drink water during the day and are eating properly but when they are at school, depending what their schedule is like, they don’t always eat properly and then come out to practice and try to run hard, but they just run out of gas or they end up cramping up because of dehydration. We try to emphasize they should always have a water bottle with them.” Mountain Vista has a dominant cross country program in the Continental League. The Golden Eagles boys won the state championship last year and the girls were fourth. “We play up nutrition and hydration probably a couple times a week,” said coach Jonathan Dalby. “We try to educate as much as we can about that kind of stuff. We try to get them to carry a water bottle around with them all day long or always have that with Fuel continues on Page 24

Top boys runners — Forrest Barton, Jr.; Jesse Freeman, Jr. 2013 outlook — Both teams will be relatively young and the girls team is deep with the possibility of being one of the strongest in the school’s sevenyear history. The boys team has a strong three front runners but depth could be a problem. Senior transfers Emma McLaughlin from Brussels, Belgium and Zach Tidwell from Michigan will bolster the teams.

Boys have plenty of depth but lack experience. Say what? — “Schneider, Alcala, Balman and Jordan are coming off strong track seasons but need support from younger girls. Blackburn will be supported by Skoglund, Tinlin and Tauber who look to be much improved,” said Davies.

Teams on course for change Difference in golf regions kept out good players in past By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Players, coaches, parents and spectators have been complaining, grumbling, muttering and whining for years about the regional golf qualifying format. In the past, many of the state’s top teams and individuals were lumped in the same regions that were determined at the start of the season. That resulted in several good golfers not being able to qualify for the state tournament, while others with higher scores did make it into the state tourney because of playing in a region with fewer talented golfers. However, a significant change has been made to the Class 5A and 4A regional qualifying setup that will also apply to the girls spring season. Now, with the new CHSAA waterfall regional seeding system, league finishes will be submitted to the CHSAA on Sept. 9, and schools will be placed in one of four regions based on how they finished in their leagues. The idea behind the modification is that a couple conferences usually produce better golfers and often have to compete in a region for a certain number of spots in the state tournament, where another region might have schools that that don’t have as many good golfers. Last season, for example, after the predetermined number of teams qualifying in each region was set, the qualifying cutoff score in the Metro-East regional played at Common Ground Golf Club was 76. There were 38 golfers in the state tournament who played in last year’s state tournament with qualifying scores higher than 76, and there were six golfers in the Metro-East that fired a 76 and had a playoff, with only

one advancing into the two-day state tournament. With this season’s seeding for the four regional tournaments, the No. 1, No. 5 and No. 9 teams in the Continental League will play in the Central Region along with the top Jefferson County League team. The Colorado Springs Metro and Front Range League champions will be in the Northern Region with the Continental’s No. 2, 6 and 10 schools. The Denver Prep and Southwestern League champions will be seeded in the Western Region with the Continental League’s third-, seventh- and 11thplace teams. The Continental League No. 4, No. 8 and No. 12 teams will tee it up in the Southern Region with the No. 1 teams from the Centennial and East Metro Leagues. Each Class 5A region will have two automatic teams qualify and roughly 15 individuals not on the top two teams. “The new format can make a huge difference,” said Douglas County coach Jeff Riley. “Historically the southern and eastern metro regions were very strong and the northern much stronger than metro west. In 2006, Douglas County won the league by 50 shots but finished fourth at regionals behind Air Academy, that had a career day, and Chaparral and ThunderRidge. “ThunderRidge and Chaparral finished 1-2 in the state tournament after Douglas County finished ahead of them throughout the regular season. Golf in the state of Colorado is basically a one-day season, the regionals. If you have a great season and have a bad day at regionals, you are out. The realignment hopefully will cut down the numbers of one-day wonders qualifying for the state tournament.” Mountain Vista coach Tim Taylor is another coach who lauds the CSHAA for taking a step in the right direction. “This is a step towards a better idea,” he Golf continues on Page 25

them. “We talk about eating fruits and vegetables. We want them to eat carbohydrates but what they always don’t think about is eating fats and protein. We try to educate them on eating the right kind of fats and protein. Those three things kind of fuel you up as an athlete and help better performances day in and day out.” Mountain Vista senior Connor Weaver, who was the first Golden Eagles runner to cross the finish line, in 12th place at the 2012 state meet, tries to eat healthy and watches his iron levels. “Every day I take a vitamin supplement and an iron

supplement,” he said. “My sophomore year I found out I was anemic and that when I run, I sweat a lot. I lose iron more quickly than a lot of other people. Without iron, oxygen can’t be transported throughout the body as quickly. So that is a big thing for me, making sure my iron levels are good. “I know everybody on our team drinks two full 32-ounce bottles of water a day. I know Andrew Walton and I do protein shakes typically an hour after a hard workout. That seems to help the muscles recover.” Highlands Ranch also has their girls and boys runners keep journals on what they eat, and Clifford and head boys coach Nicky DeBolt harp on their athletes to keep hydrated. “I play a lot of attention to my diet,” said Highlands Ranch senior Nick Meis. “My goal is to keep consumption of junk food to a minimum. I keep a water bottle with me at school. I make sure I sip water throughout the day when I

know I’ll be running in the afternoon.” Clifford has issued a warning to Highlands Ranch teachers. “We did tell the kids we were going to email their teachers,” related Clifford. “If they yell at you for having to go to the bathroom all the time, have them email us because you have to stay hydrated all the time.”

said. “We always thought league should really mean something. Standings in the league were irrelevant. Now all of a sudden they mean something. The way you play in league will give you a chance to play well in the regional and get into the state tournament. “A lot of coaches for years have been saying that if you had a league like our league that was pretty deep and had kids go to a regional tournament that was a oneday shootout, which we never thought was right, you could have kids that shot 76, 77, 78 and not make it into the state tournament.” Littleton’s Joe Schroer was one of those golfers. He carded a 76 at the Metro-East regional and wasn’t the one golfer to survive a sixplayer playoff. He was eliminated from the state tournament.

“It was kind of hard to look at the regional scores when they came out the next day, especially in the Jeffco League,” said Schroer. “I think it was 82 or 83 that was the cut. Hopefully it will be better this year.” Arapahoe coach Harry Buckner summed up the qualifying change in a few words. “Good golfers will get to state now,” he said. Highlands Ranch coach James Barker, however, doesn’t like the change. “To me a region is a geographic area, and you ought to know where your regional championship is going to be well ahead of time so you can get some practice rounds on the course,” said Barker. “Also, the season has to end on Sept. 9 to do this seeding for the regionals, so that means we’re only going to be playing a monthlong season. “I don’t like it at all. My argument against people who complain about shooting a good score and not getting into the state championship is they need to get better. I do think we shouldn’t have players

A KILTED TILT Store not your average Joe One Trader Joe’s coming to Colorado was fantastic news for this California girl. Two put me over the moon, especially since it was announced No. 2 would be located on Eighth and Colorado near my Capitol Hill abode. Now, the California-based specialty grocery store I grew up on is adding a third store in Greenwood Village. The Denver Post reported Trader Joe’s has signed a lease at the Cherry Hills Marketplace at 5901 S. University Blvd., at the intersection with East Orchard Road. The first two stores — in Denver and on Boulder’s Twenty Ninth Street mall — are scheduled to open in 2014, as will the Greenwood Village store.

Couple says goodbye to grass Homeowners in lengthy process of xeriscaping By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com Al and Denise Quartararo, raised in Brooklyn, working in Manhattan — where they said you could only see the sky if you looked straight up past the huge skyscrapers — wanted so much to live in Colorado. And so years ago, the newlyweds left their jobs and just moved, driving across the country in a green Ford Torino. Al, a lead systems analyst, IBM computer guy, quickly re-established himself. And more than 20 years ago they built their dream house in a big-sky spot next to a pasture of horses in the then sparsely populated Castle Pines North, now the incorporated city of Castle Pines. They hiked, they fished, they wanted to be part of nature, not against it. But they distinctly remember the person they had designing a landscape plan for them, who stood on their porch and proclaimed that “you want grass from one end to the other.” So they put in 8,500 square feet of that needed and beautiful bluegrass sod. Now, they’re ripping out most of it, quite a bit at a time. “This is a precious resource,” Al Quartararo said, referring to water. “You don’t use 50,000 gallons of it (in a month).” But back when they still had all 8,500 square feet, that’s what they were doing. Now, they only have 2,900 square feet left, since through the past nine years they’ve been switching section by section to xeriscaping. Last month’s water bill showed they only used 17,000 gallons of water. The Quartararos said they moved from an area that had plenty of water, so they don’t think they were as sensitive as they

Denise (left) and Al Quartararo of Castle Pines stand in their backyard near some of their new plantings in a xeriscaped area that’s part of their ongoing efforts to replace most of their blue-grass sod. Photos by Virginia Grantier should have been to the water issues here. But they also were raising kids, who used the backyard along with the neighbors for athletic competitions. So the grass was good then. But the children are grown and gone and the Quartararos are retired. They first started pulling out their sod from the side yards, and started redesigning. They’re self-taught, plus they do things like attend Castle Pines North Metro District xeriscaping workshops. They’ve learned the importance of Triple X plants, which in the xeriscaping world means those plants that only need a half- inch of water every two weeks. Xeriscaping’s Double X plants, not quite as desirable, only need a half-inch of water every week. “If it’s not two x or three x, I don’t want

it,” Denise said. Denise pointed out a large area of living and colorful plants that hasn’t been watered since June. Their accomplishments have led to a chance to win a contest. The Quartararos are entered in this year’s Castle Pines North Metro District xeriscaping contest. A qualifying Castle Pines yard needs only 400 square feet of xeriscaping, said a metro district spokesman. Winners, who are already saving water, will save more — with big credits on their water bills. For more information and to enter before the Sept. 2 deadline, go to www. cpnmd.org.

Bertha Lynn has been one of my favorite on-air personalities since I arrived in Denver in 1993. She is the sweetest, most generous human being. Now that she’s leaving Denver’s 7, viewers from Golden to Highlands Ranch and Westminster to Littleton are losing a truly wonderful asset on the air. But good for her! She’s been able to reinvent herself in a new occupation. After reporting the news for more than 30 years for KMGH-Channel 7, Lynn is leaving the newsroom to become executive director of the Children’s Diabetes Foundation in Denver. “I’m writing a new chapter,” Lynn said via email. “I’m so grateful to my past and present colleagues. I’ve loved bringing home the news to the people of Colorado since 1976 and now I’m ready to apply, in a different arena, the skills I’ve learned as a communicator and in the boardrooms of the many nonprofit organizations I’ve served over the years. I’ll be working with a wonderful group of people at a respected organization. I’m thrilled!” In a 7News press release, Lynn said, “To be tapped by Barbara Davis and the Board of the Children’s Diabetes Foundation to carry on their work helping sick children is a dream come true — allowing me to meet new challenges while continuing to serve in Colorado. The people of Denver and Colorado have been very kind and generous to me as they watched me grow up. Colorado remains my home and I look forward to engaging with the community for even greater support in our battle against life-threatening diabetes.” 7News news director Jeff Harris said Lynn’s “career at 7News is an inspiration to so many. But, more than anything else, Bertha has worked tirelessly to improve our community. For this, we are grateful and not a bit surprised in her decision to lead this wonderful organization.” Lynn, one of Denver’s most recognized and honored broadcast journalists, has been reporting news to Coloradans since 1976 when she began with KBTV (now KUSA-Channel 9) as an anchor and reporter. In 1984, she moved to 7News where she has anchored and reported for nearly every station newscast. Lynn signed off Aug. 9 in her final 7News telecast. We’ll miss her and wish her much success.

Rocky Flats Cold War Museum in Arvada, which moved to a new space on July 1. The museum, which held its first exhibition in 2012, moved to the lobby space of the Jehn Center at 5690 Webster St. after being housed at the old Arvada Post Office building on Yukon Street. In 2001, a nonprofit foundation was dedicated to preserving the history of the former nuclear weapons plant. Rocky Flats produced more than 60,000 plutonium triggers for nuclear weapons from 1952-1989. A Superfund cleanup of the 6,200-acre site and 800 structures began in 1995. In 2007, most of the site became a national wildlife refuge. Rocky Flats Cold War Museum executive director Conny Bogaard says the museum hopes to find a permanent home near the Rocky Flats site off Highway 93 between Golden and Boulder. Fundraising efforts are in the works to build that facility. Just some of the artifacts on exhibit through mid-September include paintings by Doug Waterfield, an associate professor at the University of Nebraska-Kearney.

“It’s just kind of natural for their music to become part of our lives and ours to become part of theirs. So it was just natural for us to record some of it,” Daniels said. Charlie Daniels’ career has spanned over 50 years and when asked what has been the highlight of his career he responded by saying, “The highlight of my career is being able to do what I do for a living. I thank God that I’m able to play music for a living which is something I thoroughly enjoy doing. So it’s a highlight to me every night just walking on stage. I intend to do it as long as it’s the Lord’s will and as long as people want to hear me.” The Tri-Lakes Music Festival will take place Aug. 31 at the onLake of thebasis, Rockies an as-needed for the period of approximately sixteen (16) Campground located off of Mitchell Avenue months, beginning in September 2013 to including December 31, 2014. in Monument. and Douglas County reserves the right to enter into agreements multiple The show begins at 11 with a.m. andnewspaends for separate components of the at sunset.

Fans can expect to hear a mix of bluegrass, country, rock, jazz and even gospel from perhaps the most famous fiddle player around. They can also expect to hear some of the favorites from The Charlie Daniels Band. “I always do the songs that people have a perfect right to hear, ‘The Devil Went Down to Georgia’ and ‘Long-Haired Country Boy.’ We have some new things we’ll do (but) we’ll definitely do the songs that people have a perfect right and expect to hear,” Daniels said. A lot of people consider The Charlie Daniels Band country but Daniels said when people ask him what kind of music he plays he said he tells them he plays American music. The band’s newest CD, “Hits of the South,” features the two songs mentioned above but the band also does covers of “Sharp Dressed Man,” “Freebird,” “Signed Sealed Delivered” and “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down.” Daniels said the songs on the CD are from other bands they have toured with over the years.

We’re inspired by classic Colorado architecture and passionate about craŌsmanship. Yet we geek out on the latest technology and building techniques. The thicker walls in our high performance homes allow for 60% more money-saving insulaƟon than in a convenƟonal home, and our roof is 6 inches higher than a typical home, so we get 2½ Ɵmes MORE insulaƟon in the aƫc. This reduces heat loss, and more importantly, reduces your energy bill!
