Pot fine for minors could reach $500 Community service might be imposed for offenders

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com Castle Rock City Council gave its initial OK Aug. 20 to increase the fine for minors caught with marijuana or drug paraphernalia from $100 to $500.

The proposed changes in the town ordinance, which was scheduled to face a

second hearing Sept. 3, would also add a requirement of completing 24 hours of community service and/or attendance of a substance abuse class, whichever is recommended by the municipal judge and prosecutors.

“It has been many years since that hundred-dollar fine was adjusted, so that no doubt needed some current review and assessment,” Castle Rock Town Attorney Robert Slentz told the council.

The change was one of three requests brought up by Castle Rock Mayor Paul Do-

nahue at a June council meeting.

Donahue at the June meeting explained that based on research he’s done, marijuana is a gateway drug. Also, since the implementation of medical marijuana, there has been a significant increase in marijuana use by teenagers in Colorado, he said.

Donahue said he wants to make the fine stiffer so teens will “think twice about possessing.” Councilmember Renee Valentine called for an emphasis on community service since teens probably would turn to parents for help paying the fine.

Donahue’s two other requests at the June meeting were to consider putting the national motto “In God We Trust” in a prominent place in council chambers, and to considering repealing the town’s open weapons ban in municipal buildings.

The council recently approved placing the national motto in town chambers, as well as the town’s and state’s mottos and the town’s date of incorporation, for a cost of Pot continues on Page 20

Castle View students help students Apprentice program idea gets attention of district

Sheriff’s office gets new bomb robot Federal grant pays for Dragon Runner

By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office recently upgraded its resources with the addition of a Dragon Runner bomb robot.

The robot, pack and remote included, weighs just 75 pounds, much smaller than its 500-pound predecessor, allowing it to get into harder-to-reach places as it keeps officers out of harm’s way while the bomb squad is deployed.

Purchased for $110,397, the robot — designed by the Marine Corps for use in Afghanistan and Iraq — was fully funded by a grant from the Department of Homeland Security. The appropriation of the grant money was approved by the county commissioners July 30 and the robot arrived in Castle Rock in early August.

So far, officers have been thrilled at its capabilities.

“It’s lightweight and portable and hooks

right on the backpack,” said Lt. Tommy Barrella. “We needed a small platform robot that we could deploy quickly. We can carry it with us into a school or neighborhood.

You can’t do that with the big robot.”

The big robot, which the department is keeping to conduct heavier, more timeconsuming work, is used mainly for bomb disposal, Barrella said. However, it is clumsy and can’t climb steep terrain or stairs, and if something breaks on it, it takes at least a half a day just to take the robot apart.

The new robot requires just five minutes to take apart, but perhaps more importantly in a SWAT situation, can approach a house within minutes while the officers keep their distance and can be stationed in their command van.

“It goes over everything that is put in its way,” Barrella said. “It’s a good set of eyes for us, and instead of climbing a hill with the van and entering plain sight with the big robot, this one can climb the hill itself or in a backpack with an officer.”

Less than 1 percent of Douglas County students drop out of school each year, but six Castle View High School students aim to drop that figure lower still.

They’ve proposed an apprenticeship program designed to keep at-risk students in high school while they learn a trade.

Douglas County School District officials are working with them to make that idea a reality.

The program was inspired by the Center for Civic Education’s Project Citizen, which urges middle and high school students to learn about public policymaking through projects. Its focus on empathy and critical thinking dovetailed with the goals of a sophomore-level class taught by Castle View’s Michael Schneider and Christina Classen.

Six of those students, now juniors, saw a need among their peers.

“We came up with the idea of helping students that are struggling in school find a way to have success in life,” student Madeline Morgan said. “These are our fellow classmates; we definitely care about them.”

For at-risk students, success doesn’t necessarily entail post-secondary education.

“Just because Douglas County is a prestigious school district, college is not really for everyone,” student Gregory Connelly said.

“They feel like to have to make their own opportunities and find help themselves,” junior Lane Steas said. “It’s not offered to them, like it would be to other students.”

“This is not exactly helping them be on a college track, but helping them to succeed even without a college degree,” Morgan agreed. “You definitely still can be a helpful member of society without having a degree.”

The students presented their idea at the spring 2013 Colorado Project Citizen contest at the Colorado Capitol, earning a second place. At the invitation of Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen, they repeated that presentation to the DCSD cabinet.

Two of the district’s top officials, director of operations and maintenance Bo Bacon and chief operations officer Bill Moffitt, now are working with the student team, hoping Students continues on Page 20

Display puts hunger in the picture The 22 8-by-10-inch photographs are simply set in a display case in the airy lobby of the Denver Public Library’s central branch. On an early Saturday afternoon, men and women, old and young, stroll by on the marble floors. A few glance at the images — portrayals of lives lived with hunger — but so far today no one stops.

Most never see the stories just beyond the glass, much the way many never see the hunger hidden among us every day.

“It’s something I hear a lot since I’ve been talking to people about poverty — `You’re not the average homeless person; you’re not the average hungry person,’” says Caroline Pooler, 53, who came to know hunger and homelessness after losing her job two years ago.

Three of the photographs in the case are hers. “There really is no average hungry or homeless person. They can be someone who’s working full-time and they’re not going to get lunch that day because they have to give lunch to their kids.”

Caroline and nine other women are participating in Hunger Through My Lens, an innovative project by the advocacy organization Hunger Free Colorado that gave them digital cameras to document how they see a world without consistent and healthy sustenance.

The goal is simple, project manager Lauren Flax says: Give the experts, those who know what it’s like to be hungry, a platform to voice their opinions and help shape answers to what should be a solvable issue.

“We really believe there is a solution to ending hunger,” Flax says. “Just as there are many solutions, there needs to be multiple people coming up with them. Who better than the hungry?”

The women are a diverse group. They are Latino, African-American and white, ranging in age from 22 to late 60s. They are mothers and grandmothers in Jefferson and Adams counties, Denver and Aurora. Some have lived in systemic poverty since they were children. Some live an “average, normal, middle-class life but they go to bed hungry every night, hiding it even from their church groups,” Flax says. Some have made bad choices, either through lack of education, access to resources or circumstances.

But all share the common denominator of having experienced the isolating and desperate hunger that comes when you don’t know how or when you’ll have your next meal.

Through their photographs, they hope to provide a glimpse for others — perhaps a dawning understanding — into that world.

“It’s a way to put faces to statistics,” Flax says.

“It’s easy to forget a number. It’s a lot harder to forget a face or a story.”

First, the statistics, compiled from various federal and state reports:

• One in six Americans in the U.S., and nearly one in four children, are food-insecure.

• More than 25 percent of working families in Colorado don’t have enough food to meet basic needs.

• An estimated 270,000 children in Colorado, or 22 percent of all children, live in food-insecure households.

• Colorado has the fastest-growing rate of childhood poverty in the country.

The numbers are astonishing.

And here are Caroline’s stories, told in her photographs, which she titled: • “Reverse Disparity,” a photograph of two banana clumps. One is full, fresh and smooth yellow, selling for 59 cents a pound in a grocery store in an affluent neighborhood. The other is in a smaller, privately owned grocery 30 blocks away in a neighborhood considered a “food desert” because it has no large supermarkets offering healthy options within a mile. These three bananas are slightly bruised, for sale at 89 cents a pound.

“I’m certainly not faulting that grocer,” Caroline says. “We need that grocer in that area.” But lower quality food for higher prices is the reality.

• “Farming for Food Sustenance for the Heart.” A close-up of an orange nasturtium, taken in an urban garden in which Caroline was working.

“I really did find that while I was on my hands and knees trying to feed myself, people in suits and briefcases were looking in and wishing that was them. I am the lucky one in so many ways,” she says, “pulling my food from the ground.”

• “Ancestral Meals.” A photo of a Cambodian family’s ceremonial meal, spread out in bowls and prepared in honor of ancestors for a holiday.

“It’s an inside look at the diversity of the culture here in Denver and Colorado and how those cultural food needs must be met as well,” Caroline says.

Although Caroline began struggling when she lost her job working in a medical research office, she initially resisted applying for food stamps, turning instead to urban gardening as a way to feed herself. She took the bottle cap- and

cigarette-strewn lot of a friend and began tilling and planting the soil until it flowered into an organic garden in which she harvests tomatoes for a nearby bodega, and lettuce, squash, eggplants and green beans for herself. A nonprofit restaurant, which operates on donations, uses her produce to cook her lunch.

Local food banks also helped. But last November, one turned her and others away when it ran out of food. The memory still brings tears.

“I just walked down the street and cried, more so for the thought of the moms that were turned away.”

Shortly after that, she applied for food stamps. And “it has been a blessing to go to the grocery store and really meet my nutritional needs.”

An artist also, she considers her work with Hunger Free Colorado among her most important.

The organization offers training on how to advocate for hunger issues before local governments and agencies to those who, like Caroline, want their voices to be heard and want to make a lasting difference for others in their shoes.

In October, Caroline starts a school program she hopes will lead to a job that can provide her with the stability to provide not only for herself, but also for her 24-year-old son, who despite his job still finds himself hungry at times.

“I would like to buy groceries every two weeks and take them over to his house,” she says — just the way she used to.

Back at the exhibit at the library, a woman glances at the photographs as she walks by. She slows down, and backtracks for a closer look.

The photo of a hand-scrawled sign — “Will Work 4 Food” - caught her attention.

“It just made me want to look,” Susan Wolinsky, 71, a retired lawyer, says. “I just think it’s pretty sad that in this country people don’t have enough to eat … People who have full stomachs have a better chance of being productive citizens and of helping others.”

She was surprised to find out she was one of only two passersby in an hour who had studied the exhibit, which will travel to four Adams County libraries, the 16th Street Mall in Denver and Hunger Free Colorado’s Oct. 1 Hunger Summit.

“It’s too bad,” Wolinsky says, “that some of the photographs aren’t on billboards towering over the city so that people have no choice but to look at them.”

Indeed. That would put big faces on the big numbers that are hunger in Colorado.

Council scolded for statue removal Mayor defends his request to remove art, add motto

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com A Castle Rock business owner recently told the town council that its Aug. 6 decision to remove a bronze sculpture from town hall because in the future it might offend someone is setting a “dangerous precedent.”

“A government entity has stifled freedom of speech,” said K.C. Neel, owner of Castle Rock Bike & Ski, at the Aug. 20 town council meeting. “You chose to impose your set of standards for reasons known only to you.”

The sculpture, bought in 2012 by the Castle Rock Public Art Commission — which is funded by private companies and individuals and an annual allocation of Philip S. Miller Trust Fund money — was a bronze sculpture about 8 inches high depicting a melting earth, with a bird looking on, and accompanied by a plaque inscribed with the words, “Global Warming.”

Neel said there hadn’t been one complaint lodged at the town clerk’s office in the eight months the sculpture was in the town hall, and she was concerned about decisions like this in the midst of a movement to establish a Castle Rock arts district.

“Do you really think we’re going to have artists come to a town that censors art?” she asked.

The Castle Rock Public Art Commission bought this 8-inch-high bronze in 2012 and placed in Castle Rock Town Hall.

Problems started when a plaque with the words “Global Warming” was recently added. Courtesy photo She also asked if intolerance and repression is really the kind of reputation “we want Castle Rock to have.”

The decision to remove the statue happened Aug. 6 after Mayor Paul Donahue told the council that he had noticed the statue with the “global warming” plaque

news in a hurry Open space starts operation

A new Douglas County open space park, the 876-acre Lincoln Mountain Open Space, which protects the entire top of Lincoln Mountain, will be open to the public starting Aug. 31, according to a news release. The open space, located at 7333 Jones Road in southern Douglas County, will be open from one hour before sunrise to one hour after sunset. Hiking, biking and horseback riding is allowed. Dogs must be on a leash.

A sign in the parking lot states the remaining rules and regulations, and maps are available at the trailhead.

Part of the property was the Palmer Divide Ranch on West Cherry Creek, previously planned for development, but a downturn in the economy enabled Douglas County to acquire it for open space.

The ranch, historically a working cattle and hay ranch, is visible from State Highway 83 and contains unique geologic formations. It has high-value wildlife habitat, contains more than one mile of West Cherry Creek and is habitat for the threatened Prebles meadow jumping mouse.

Event focuses on compassion

A program that focuses on the power of compassion by a single individual and its ripple effects will be presented at 6 p.m.

Sept. 10 at Clear Sky Elementary School, 1470 Clear Sky Way, and the public is invited.

The program is called Rachel’s Challenge, in honor of Rachel Joy Scott, the first person killed in the Columbine High School shooting, and is designed to replace bullying and violence with positive words

and actions by teaching basic life principles modeled by Scott, according to a news release.

Rachel’s Challenge, a nonprofit, nonpolitical, non-religious organization, is dedicated to empowering students and adults to create a permanent positive culture change in their schools and communities by starting a chain reaction of kindness and compassion.

School districts report as much as a 90 percent reduction in disciplinary referrals and out-of-school suspensions after having the program Rachel reportedly deliberately reached out with kindness and compassion to those who were new at school, different from others or otherwise picked on or put down. After her death the Scott family began to hear from many people, students and adults, whose lives had been profoundly impacted by Rachel’s simple acts of kindness and words of encouragement.

Castle Pines ‘Run Wild’ scheduled

The second annual Castle Pines annual Run Wild event, which will offer a fourmile and nine-mile run as well as a cycling race, a dog race, and other events, happens on Sept. 15.

After the races, there will be a pancake breakfast, a beer garden and prizes.

The event, sponsored by the City of Castle Pines, will take place in the city’s Elk Ridge Park — rain or shine.

Registration starts at 7 a.m. Sept. 15.

Dogs are welcome to compete in the fourmile Furry Run, but must be leashed.

For more information, go to runwild. info.

Construction underway on i-25 Lane reductions planned for three-month project Staff report Work is underway on a $1.2 million project to replace the concrete slabs on the Interstate 25 bridges at Surrey Ridge Road and Happy Canyon Creek Road, as well as minor bridge work on I-25 at RidgeGate.

The work, which began in late August, is expected to last through early to mid-November. During construction, both northbound and southbound I-25 from RidgeGate Parkway to Castle Pines Parkway will be reduced to three lanes 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to accommodate the work.

“Our goal is to minimize the inconve-

nience of construction to the traveling public ... to make it easier to drive through the construction zone,” said Colorado Department of Transportation project engineer Dole Grebenik, referring to a change in plans that originally called for an increased number of lanes being closed in each direction.

During construction, traffic will be realigned to accommodate four phases of work, with three lanes in each direction available at all times.

Drivers can also expect travel speeds reduced to 55 mph through the construction zone.

The concrete slab replacement will eliminate the present bumps and improve the smoothness of the roadway.

ABCO Contracting Inc. of Denver is the contractor for the project.

and it occurred to him that “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 contentious like global warming.”

The council consensus was to remove it.

Then, later that evening, the council considering another recommendation initiated by Donahue, and approved putting the words “In God We Trust” in town council chambers on an overhang that would face the audience.

The council voted 7-0 to OK that, but before Councilmember Chip Wilson voted, he expressed concern, pointing out that while the council had discussed the sculpture’s removal because it might be considered contentious, it now was approving something that might be considered contentious by others.

Donahue at the Aug. 20 meeting responded to Neel’s concerns and those of another member of the public who also had expressed concerns about the statue’s removal — as well as the placement of the words “In God We Trust” into the town hall chambers.

“There’s a big difference between trampling on constitutional rights and what we did last week or two weeks ago,” Donahue said. “I think anyone, anyone, private individual in Castle Rock has the right to put up whatever statue they want and we’re not going to impede on that.”

But Donahue said that when public funds are being spent, the council does have a say on “what goes up and what represents the town of Castle Rock and we’ll continue to do that.”

Donahue said the council will defend individuals’ rights to do that “and we’ll defend their rights to make it happen, but there’s a big difference between the two.”

“Do You Suffer from these Seven Symptoms of this Often Misdiagnosed Problem?...”

Tens of millions suffer, and often don’t know where to turn...

Dear friend, The problem is often misdiagnosed, or not diagnosed at all. But, it affects the lives of between 10 and 20 million Americans.

This problem can cause: 1. Numbness 2. Burning pain 3. Cramping 4. Sharp, electric pain 5. Hurt when you walk 6. Difficulty sleeping from leg/foot discomfort 7. Prickling/tingling feelings If you suffer from one or more of these problems, you may have peripheral neuropathy. And, if you do, you’re not alone.

Often, these good people have been frustrated by the traditional care they’ve received for these terrible problems, and are still seeking help.

These problems can be caused by Diabetes, hereditary, disorders, Disc Herniations, inflammation, medications such as cholesterol lowering (statin) drugs, and more.

For the past 10 years, I’ve studied this class of conditions, collectively known as “peripheral neuropathies.” In fact, helping people with these problems has become a primary focus of mine.

It’s not unusual for me to hear stories from patients who’ve suffered for years with terrible symptoms. For many, they are missing out on the things they love to do. They aren’t enjoying life as they once did.

If that describes you, then perhaps I can help. I practice a multi-pronged attack to these problems.

It’s a unique program that only 100 doctors worldwide have studied.

That’s why I’ve put together the “Peripheral Neuropathy Pain Treatment Program” for anyone suffering from the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy pain. And, the beautiful thing is that when these health situations are resolved, people have great improvements in the quality of their lives. In many cases, they finally can live pain free, with peace and joy in their lives again.

I’m a proud member of the Neuropathy Treatment Centers of America. This gives me a unique set of knowledge and tools that have been tested, researched, and found to be effective.

Here’s what some of your neighbors have to say: It was so hard to keep my legs calm and still and night and try to stop kicking my husband. It made me so mad! My feet and legs were so cold that I couldn’t sleep. For the past week I have not had the restless leg syndrome, and my feet are warm at night and I have been able to finally rest! Thanks Dr Ryan (Hilma Guse) When I started a couple months ago, my feet burned, they burned all the time. It was no way to live a life.

They even hurt and burned through the night, so my life was really like living in HELL! After my care, I have very little of that burning sensation and things are a whole lot better for me! Thanks! (Ron Anderson) Innovative care - Powerful results You can’t have nerve pressure or ‘pinched nerves’ and get better from neuropathy. Using the latest in technology, I offer non-invasive care. I help patients

get well with literally no twisting or popping of their spine because I use patented adjusting instrumentation that is highly researched, low force and computerized. This frees the nerves, and the damage caused by old herniated discs or arthritis.

More about this Unique Care We also use Low Level Light Therapy (LLLT). It’s a newly developed tool that’s very safe. This non-invasive healing light has been proven to work wonders on peripheral neuropathy symptoms.

About Me I am a native of Colorado. I attended and played football at the University of Colorado. My goal is to get the word out to as many people as we can that our office may be the place for you!

Do You Qualify For This New Program?

When you call and make an appointment, I’ll perform a highly-specialized Qualitative Clinical Scoring System of the Peripheral Nervous System to see if we may be able to help. But, please call right away because we can take only the first 27 callers. If you are one of these 27, I’ll do this Evaluation and Qualifying Process Completely FREE!!! So, please call my assistant Lori, or me, at 303-858-8288 in Castle Rock.

I don’t want you to miss out on this golden opportunity! Due to the nature of this offer, it will end on September 20, 2013.

Add some peace to your life or the life of someone you love. Call me today to make an appointment. We can help you. Thank you, Dr. Ryan Helms, D.C. P.S. Does your spouse, family member, or friend suffer from peripheral neuropathy? This offer is also available to them, too. You can even come in together.

Their lack of health affects your life also. Maybe this will be your chance to really give them the help they need.

P.P.P.S. If you want more information, come in and fill out a preliminary Subjective Peripheral Neuropathy Screening Questionnaire, or come by for a FREE REPORT about the Peripheral Neuropathy Pain Treatment Program.

Medical building is ‘Alexander’ for reason Lobby exhibit explains building name, doctor’s life

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com South of the new Castle Rock Adventist Hospital is a new medical building, offices of various physicians, and it has a name: The Alexander Building.

Local historians said recently they wanted people to understand why it was named that — and so they spent about a year gathering documents, information and artifacts about Dr. George Everett Alexander, who moved to Castle Rock in 1893 to set up a practice.

It was a different environment for the East Coast doctor, born in Connecticut and educated in New York state: There might have been, possibly, a couple hundred people in Castle Rock then, said Angie DeLeo, director of the Castle Rock Museum.

The results of her research and the work of the museum’s collections curator, Jim Hansmann, are now in the building’s lobby — a permanent exhibit that includes a photo of the doctor in his office holding his dog, as well as some of his instruments, his doctor’s diary, prescription pad and so on.

She said he initially would have used a horse to get around, but he was also known to ride a bicycle — one picture shows his dress pants, sharply pressed, creased down the legs, but with bicycle clips at the ankles so he can safely ride.

Later, he would buy one of the first automobiles in town, a 1911 REO.

Life held tragedy

In his life of being there for people in emergencies, his own life had traumas.

Lionel Oberlin, a longtime resident and historian, who with his wife started the Castle Rock Historical Society and the museum, owns the house where Alexander practiced and lived for most of his time in Castle Rock. He said recently that Alexander’s second wife, Bessie, hanged herself behind the house, which is located at 203 Cantril St., in

a building that is no longer there.

It was reported in the Oct. 4, 1907, Castle Rock Journal that Bessie died “by hanging herself this morning.” She was mother of three sons, the youngest only about a year old, and the paper reported she had been having “difficulties,” Hansmann said.

But Alexander, a second-time widower, would marry a third wife, widow Nina Thomas, have another son, and live and practice medicine in Castle Rock for another 40 years until he died in 1947.

Alexander was born in Connecticut on Jan. 9, 1859. In 1885 he graduated with honors from New York’s University of Buffalo medical school, and married his first wife, Arlene Harris, on Feb. 13, 1889. They moved from New York state to Fort Collins in 1891 because of her health. In 1892, Arlene Alexander, who had tuberculosis, died.

In 1893, Alexander moved to Castle Rock. It’s not clear where his initial office was located in Castle Rock. In 1898, he mar-

ried Bessie Shaw, daughter of a Canon City minister, and in 1902 he bought the house at 203 Cantril St. It’s called the Hammer House, and is now on the National Register of Historic Places. It was built by Benjamin Hammer, who owned the Colorado Stone Co. and built the town’s first train depot, which is now the Castle Rock Museum.

Basement treasures

The house was in the family until the Oberlins bought the then-vacant house in the 1980s from the estate. They were told they could keep whatever was left in the basement, their oldest son Dirk Oberlin said recently.

Lionel Oberlin and his wife, Starr, now deceased, while rummaging through basement things, found a large original pencil and charcoal drawing of Alexander as well as other items now displayed throughout the house. A copy of the drawing is part of the Alexander Building’s lobby display.

Another house that Alexander lived in sometime before he bought the Hammer House was a nearby frame house at 121 Cantril St., DeLeo said.

Alexander was known to have a “wonderful voice,” was a baritone and sang for various community events as well as acted in plays.

“He was well-known in the community … kind of a Renaissance man,” DeLeo said.

Alexander was known as a “friend, counselor, advisor, community historian, banquet toastmaster and leading citizen,” according to information at the display. He played some baseball on a team called the Castle Rockers, but the researchers noticed that after a game in which he got hit in the head with a ball, it was never mentioned that he played again. He only “umped,” Hansmann said.

He would sometimes visit Central City where his brother, Ed Alexander, managed a gold mine the brothers owned called “Vindicator,” in what was called the Yankee Hill area. At one point, the mine was producing 1.5 ounces per ton.

Recognition for doctor

Alexander also saw patients throughout the county, had part-time office hours in Sedalia, and when the DuPont Company doctor couldn’t figure out what was wrong with a patient in the company town of Louviers, Alexander arrived and diagnosed appendicitis and drove the patient to the nearest hospital at the time, Denver’s St. Anthony.

Alexander has been nationally recognized as one of the longest-practicing physicians in the United States.

In the future, when needed, there will be additional medical buildings built near Castle Rock’s hospital, and it’s already known the next building will have a woman’s name on it — possibly longtime Castle Rock nurse Mary Briscoe Enderud.

But anyone who knows of women with notable histories in the medical field in the Castle Rock area is asked to email the museum with the names and any information about them: crmuseum@comcast.net.

The site, which is in the southwest corner of the intersection of Plum Creek Boulevard and Plum Creek Parkway, is also just north of Daniel C. Oakes High School. He said the lot will be fenced and screened.

Hix said Tractor Supply, which is typically the second-best-performing stock on NASDAQ, second only to Apple, is a wellrun, conservative company that caters to customers’ needs. “Life is pretty simple: Say what you’re going to do and exceed expectations,” he said.

Construction time for this store, which will employ about 20 people, will take about six months, it’s estimated.

Tractor Supply Co., which has stores in 46 states, has picked Castle Rock for its first store in Colorado. Grading began in August on the five-acre site located just north of Daniel C. Oakes High School, which is pictured in the background.

Robber not found after store holdup

crime briefs Wallet stolen at Outlets

A 24-year-old Romanian man reported the theft of his wallet containing his passport, other documents and $410 in cash from an Outlets at Castle Rock store at 1 p.m. Aug. 20, according to a Castle Rock police report.

After reviewing the store’s surveillance, police were able to see the victim buying shoes at the store and leaving his wallet behind. Police were then able to see another customer at a nearby register complete a purchase, turn to leave, and then look at the victim’s wallet on the counter. “The suspect then grabbed the wallet and left the store,” according to the police report.

The still-unidentified suspect is described as a white male with short dark hair wearing a gray T-shirt with some type of “flame” design on the front, according to the report.

Mountain bike stolen

A 41-year-old Castle Rock woman reported the Aug. 20 theft of her about $500 mountain bike that was locked to a railing outside of her Plum Creek Parkway apartment, according to a Castle Rock police

report. She said when she returned home for lunch at 2 p.m. Aug. 20, she saw the bike was missing and the $30 cable lock was lying on the ground cut in half. She told police the bike was a white Specialized mountain bike with red pedals and grips.

Loaded gun stolen

A 45-year-old Castle Rock woman reported Aug. 20 that her loaded gun was missing from her unlocked pickup, according to a Castle Rock police report.

The woman told police she went out to her Ford F-150 truck about 5:30 p.m. Aug. 20, which was parked in her driveway on Eaglestone Lane, and noticed the glovebox and the center console were open. She told police she keeps a loaded gun in the console and it was missing. She said the theft would have occurred sometime between 6 p.m. Aug. 18 and 5 p.m. Aug. 20.

The gun was described as a $700 chrome Colt Police Pocket Special .32-caliber revolver containing five long rounds and one empty chamber.

The victim couldn’t locate the gun’s serial number, but emailed photographs of it to police.

Also missing was a $10 Nickelback CD.

Drum set stolen

A drum set was stolen sometime between Aug. 14 and 17 from a Castle Rock garage in the 1400 block of Colt Circle. The owner of the kit was last at the residence on Aug. 14, helping his parents pack and move. He arrived at the house on Aug. 17 to play the set one last time before moving it to his apartment and noticed it missing.

The side door to the garage was unlocked when he arrived, but he said the family had left it unlocked the entire nine years they lived there and nothing like this had happened.

Generator stolen

A black and white, Super Silent 7,000-pound generator, valued at $36,500, was stolen from a business parking lot in the 9700 block of North Moore Road in Roxborough sometime either Aug. 17 or 18.

The generator, which was being rented from a Denver company, had four Wagner Cat stickers on it, one on each side, and was on a trailer with a fleet plate from Wagner Rental.

Teller said the robbery occurred at 5:22 a.m. Aug. 17 when the suspect entered the store at 7530 Village Square Drive and demanded money as he held a switchblade in his hand, pointed at the store employee.

Teller said the employee handed over an undisclosed amount of money from the register, the robber left, and the employee called 911.

The store employee described the suspect as being a white male in his late 40s to early 50s, about 230 pounds, and between 5-foot-8 and 5-foot-10. He was wearing a red hoodie, with the hood up, and khaki shorts. There is no description of the vehicle he left in, Teller said.

Students’ book aims to soothe souls Aurora, Newtown shootings inspire Parker children’s project

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com In the wake of the July 2012 Aurora theater and December 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary mass shootings, students at Parker’s Challenge to Excellence Charter School experienced a wave of emotions.

“We were all just really depressed,” said seventh-grader Ayla Blanton. “Then we were angry because we couldn’t believe somebody would do such a horrible thing, that they would destroy so many lives.”

The then-sixth-grade students channeled those feelings into something tangible, the creation of a book filled with positive messages. “Colorado: A New Perspective” includes messages of hope, photographs and drawings from the members of Glenn Thompson’s 2012-13 sixth grade class. The 71-page book includes links and suggestions for inspirational and upbeat videos, movies, books and songs.

“We were trying to counteract those horrible acts by choosing to do something and be positive,” Thompson said. “We’re

very happy with the finished product, and also with the idea our thoughts and actions could hopefully give some specific help to people that need it.”

Parent Tracey Ramirez suggested the idea of a project after the Aurora theater shootings.

The Newtown tragedy reaffirmed the need for such a book.

“We felt really bad for the people involved in those incidents,” student Kenna True said. “We just wanted to make them happy. We were trying to help make it better.”

The book’s intended reach goes far beyond the two communities.

“We also wrote the book for anybody that was down, to let them know they’re loved,” True said.

“To put a smile on the face of anybody going through a hard time,” added student Aasal Rae. “We tried to let them know they can be happy again,” Blanton said.

The ultimate goal is to send copies of the book to the families of victims in both Aurora and Newtown, Conn. The hoped-for money to cover the costs of publication and send the books will come from book sales.

opinions / yours and ours

Don’t let gum stick it to you I would venture to guess that at one time or another, all of us have either stepped on a piece of gum, or if we haven’t been so fortunate yet, will certainly step on a piece at some point in our lives.

You know the kind I am talking about.

It’s a hot day, someone has carelessly spit out a piece of chewing gum, the heat of the sidewalk or asphalt has baked it into a soft or even liquid-like substance, and then we are blessed enough to step right on it.

We immediately know when it happens, too. We feel it, we look down at the strands that are partially stuck to our shoe and yet still connected to the ground behind us.

We let out a sigh as we crinkle our nose, scowl at the mess, and maybe even utter a four-letter word or two.

How about the other things that are keeping our feet stuck in one spot and that make us snarl with angst as they slow us down on what we really and truly want to pursue? What kind of chewing gum is

holding us back, holding you back? Is it a lack of a certain skill or knowledge? Is there a tainted experience or memory that has jaded our hope and inspiration for following through on our goals and dreams?

What is causing us to look back or look down at the lack of achievement or missed opportunities?

If you are like me, you also really hate gum on the bottom of your shoe. It’s not just the sticky strands and wondering whose mouth germs are under our feet,

Mac and cheese: a six-part analysis Whenever something goes haywire in the Middle East, I write a column about food. In other words, about every two weeks. It takes my mind away from it for at least a couple of hours.

“Imported from your childhood” is what it says on a box of Kraft macaroni and cheese. When I was in college I probably ate five boxes of it every week. Now? Practically never. But I still eat a lot of macaroni and cheese, mostly because of Jennifer.

When I was eating Kraft, I could buy five boxes for a dollar. Now it’s a dollar each, unless you’re a member of a food club, which I am not. But it is still priced right for a college student, and it gives the illusion of providing some actual nourishment, which Top Ramen, for instance, does not.

On your behalf, I decided to do some macaroni and cheese research. It can be one of our favorite, simple meals. But not always.

You might not know that some version of macaroni and cheese has been around for centuries. There’s a pasta and cheese recipe in a 14th-century cookbook. The first modern recipe appeared in 1769 in “The Experienced English Housekeeper.”

I have no agility in the kitchen, and besides, the sublime convenience of a microwaveable container would keep me from assembling my own version, or yours, so don’t send me any recipes.

In addition to Kraft, whose cheese powder color is very disturbing, I have sampled Michelina’s, Banquet, Stouffer’s, Lean Cuisine and Whole Foods, and here’s my report.

Kraft’s pasta is the tiniest on the market.

How the orange powder could become anything resembling a cheese sauce is one of the Three Secrets of Fatima, and I think Kraft is smart to market their product as a favorable childhood memory.

Michelina’s is absolute glop. Their marketing strategy is to claim their product is “priced better” (i.e., cheap). All I saw under the list of ingredients were unpronounceable words. And good luck with removing the lid. I guess you could just leave it hanging on, but if you try to tear it off, well, you

won’t be able to.

Banquet is almost as frightening. But at least you can remove the film cover.

Stouffer’s is in the ballpark. The elbow macaroni is good, and they use “100% real cheddar cheese.”

Lean Cuisine is my choice when I want to make something quickly that’s tasty.

The box says “tender macaroni in a creamy cheddar cheese sauce” and “no preservatives.” Lean Cuisine doesn’t try to market their macaroni and cheese as a nostalgia item or a thrifty alternative.

Way out in front in quality, and cost, is Whole Foods’ macaroni and cheese. I brought some home for Jennifer and me one night, and since then she has written poems about it. I have to warn you: It’s $6.99 a pound. An argument could be made that macaroni and cheese should be kept simple. I don’t agree. Whole Foods has taken something that is basically simple, and made it something profound.

The sauce doesn’t look like aqueous yellow Crayolas (see: Banquet). It is bananacolored, thick, sophisticated and complex.

I say this without wanting to sound like one of the judges on “Chopped.”

Macaroni and cheese is often a sideshow instead of the headliner. It goes great with barbecue and chicken wings.

Finally, I bet you didn’t know that there’s a National Macaroni and Cheese Day in the United States. Whose idea was that?

But now that you do know, next July 14, get yourself some.

but it’s also about how we are going to clean that mess up.

Here is the better question, “How will we clean up the mess under our feet that is holding us back from everything that we want to be, do, or have?” What has to be untangled and scraped away so that we are free to increase our stride and move with the purpose and passion we once enjoyed?

The tricky thing is that when we step on a piece of liquefied gum we immediately know it, but when we are stuck in other areas of our lives we either choose to ignore it or we just do not recognize what is keeping us on the periphery of moving up or ahead or maybe even greatness.

A good first step is to list all of the things that we want to have in our lives or give of ourselves. Then next to each one list all the potential barriers, all the possible pieces of chewing gum that could take us away from our mission. Are they real-world barriers or just things and obstacles we imagine or

make excuses for that allow us to focus on the stickiness and scraping instead of the cleaning up and forging ahead?

How about you, have you looked at the bottom of your own shoes lately? What do you see? Are they full of stringy attachments and forgotten dreams and visions, or have they been wiped clean and ready for the next journey and walk of your life?

And maybe, just maybe you have one shoe stuck and one shoe clean, straddling the middle waiting and wondering which one will win the battle of will.

Wherever you are in that part of your journey, I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and as we scrape the gum away it will definitely be a better than good week.

letters to the editor art removal was shameful

I was particularly disturbed when Castle Rock’s Town Council directed the Public Art Commission to remove a bronze sculpture from Town Hall because somebody might find it controversial. Equally disturbing was the fact the Public Art Commission gladly obliged. Mayor Paul Donahue justified the decision saying that anytime town funds are used for public art, the council will weigh in and take charge.

The Art Commission is not funded by taxpayers. It is funded by private donors and the Philip S. Miller Trust. The art in question was a bronze, melting globe titled “Global Warming.” It went on display in Town Hall in January. The town clerk’s office received no complaints about the piece but council determined it had to go because it might be deemed “controversial.”

Art is designed to stimulate thought, conversation and, sometimes, controversy.

The fact is a governmental entity chose to squelch freedom of speech using their own set of standards for reasons known only to them. Is suppression of free thinking the kind of reputation we want Castle Rock to have? Do we want our councilmembers to serve as Culture Cops?

We should expect our elected officials to protect and uphold all of our civil liberties and rights. I strongly urge every resident in Castle Rock to put their councilmen on notice that it is NOT OK to trample on the First Amendment based on the guise of avoiding some potential offense.

‘in god we trust’ is right idea

If you’re offended don’t look up!

This letter is a rebuttal to the individuals who are disappointed about the Castle Rock Town Council’s decision to hang the sign referred to in “Global warming out, God in for our town” at town hall.

To those who claim the sign is turning away the creative and innovative, have you looked around?

Castle Rock is growing like wildfire and you have the audacity to say a sign glorifying God is going to scare the growth away?

What drugs are you on?

I find it laughable that people push for the removal of God and use “separation of church and state.”

Our country was founded on the belief of God! Our money carries the phrase “In God We Trust.” Our pledge states “One Nation Under God.” Just an off-the-wall idea, but maybe the reason this area is thriving while our country circles the drain is because of the firm belief of GOD by so many in this community.

To those of you that this sign offends there are some simple solutions: 1) Don’t look at the sign, I know that’s a pretty hard thing to do because it just makes your blood boil seeing the word God; 2) Vote for other council members during the elections … oh wait, the majority believes in God; 3) Last but not least, sit at home and stew about how you can take God out of our community before you move. Good luck!

A place and time for reflection This next Wednesday marks 12 years since the day the Twin Towers fell and alQaeda terrorists aimed their planes at the Pentagon as well as the White House.

Having been born in the ’70s, there are only two events that even come close to comparison for me — the Challenger explosion and the start of the Gulf War. Neither of those events holds a candle to those images we all witnessed a dozen years back; most of us on television, a couple people I know who were unfortunately there.

I never had the opportunity to see the towers while they stood tall, beacons in the New York City skyline. My first pilgrimage to Manhattan was just weeks ago, and along with thousands of others on an early Sunday morning, I filed into the land of what was, to see what it had become, as the foundations of the towers became a place to remember each and every life taken on that fateful morning.

Moved to silence, and soon after tears, my mind drifted to a childhood friend, one of the 22 Navy SEALs shot down by Afghan insurgents on Aug. 6, 2011; the deadliest day for American forces in the now 12-year War on Terror.

If it hadn’t been for the attacks that claimed the lives of 2,996 citizens that morning in 2001, my friend would never have been fighting on foreign soil, and the hundreds of lives that were affected and continue to be affected by his death would never have had the war and 9/11 put into perspective like they were.

It’s that same perspective that friends and family members of those 2,996 people as well as the more than 5,200 American soldiers who have died since in the result-

ing wars now experience each time they think of that morning.

My friend, like many others, felt a call of duty.

And as I stood there running my fingers over the names of lives lost - surrounded by a skyline once dwarfed by the towers — I began to understand that call more than ever before.

These were the people he was fighting for.

It was a similar call of duty felt by another friend of mine, Paul Palmisano, who runs an alternative school in Monument, Colo. My mind turned to him next.

A native New Yorker, Palmisano spent five days, beginning moments after the attacks, working at Ground Zero, spending his time unloading equipment and donations from barges at nearby docks and the rest in a human chain carrying debris out from the destruction.

“I just really felt it was my duty,” Palmisano said in a 2010 interview with Colorado Community Media. “That was why I was going south while everyone else was fleeing north. I was enraged. I’m still enraged that our country was attacked.”

And as he recalled casualties covered in soot, fleeing Ground Zero, and offer-

A way to understand Douglas school board Citizens of Douglas County are confused about the present-day school board’s philosophy. To grasp the way this board makes decisions, we must go back to the theory of Milton Friedman, who was the economic adviser to President Ronald Reagan.

Friedman was pure capitalist and did not like public institutions. For example, he believed in privatizing public lands like Yosemite, Yellowstone, Rocky Mountain National Park and even Central Park in New York City. Politically speaking, Friedman was quite successful in getting rid of the draft and turning the military into a volunteer force.

It is critical to note that Friedman was quite correct about capitalism being the best way to organize production because it is, without doubt, the most efficient and effective way to manage work and profit in a society. Key ideas are to privatize, lessen government’s power, and avoid regulation wherever possible.

In our case, the school board believes that economic model is the way to run a school system. This means that teachers are no longer respected professionals; rather, they become classroom supervisors with students the equivalent of hourly workers and parents as ordinary consumers.

In the business world one does not allow non-business people to tell them how to manage, and the school board necessarily had to obliterate the teachers union that might influence salaries and the educational model. Likewise, since the society is loaded with starving artists and musicians, those programs had to be downgraded. The board hired a new CEO (i.e. school superintendent) who shared the board’s philosophy — particularly vouchers, charter schools and anti-unionism.

The primary consideration to this board is the bottom line. Therefore, the loss of experienced teachers who differ with this new philosophy happens to be a plus because new teachers can be hired at a lower rate. Similarly, students must pay a fare to get a ride on the school bus, charter school kids bring supplies to school like facial tissue, and art teachers must appeal to the public for materials.

A visitor takes some time to reflect at the 9/11 Memorial on Aug. 25 in New York City. The memorial opened two years ago on the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks. Photo by Ryan Boldrey ing assistance to them, he also recalled an overwhelming sensation of patriotism.

“I’ve never seen that kind of patriotism before,” he said. “Besides the nightmares, that’s what I remember. I didn’t know if I had it in me until that day. Now I know I’m someone that can go in when others have to go out.”

Everyone, no matter how patriotic, at some point, should do the same. Go there, see what he saw, and see what you have inside of you.

Because while that day may be 12 years

gone, its images and impact have stayed with most all Americans ever since.

And while some of us have turned a blind eye to the Middle East, the war still rages on, and in the quietest place in all of New York, there serves a memorial of not just what happened, but that soldiers are still fighting, and lives are still being lost.

OBITUARIES Williamson ERHART

Lt. Col. Robert (Bob) John Erhart, USAF (RET) Mar 14, 1935 - Aug 10, 2013

There is no doubt that the businessmen board know how to run a business. In each of their private lives this capitalist model works. Capitalism does provide employment, profit, and efficiency.

Having gone to seminary and another three years in post-graduate studies in religion, my mind reflects on the history of heresy in the Christian faith. Inevitably, a heresy begins with one good truth and expands it to become the only truth. Balance is lost. Every dissenter to their faith becomes a sinner bound for the darkest hell or, in our case, subtle unionists influenced by the AFL-CIO. Our school board believes they are demonstrating a system that should become the model for schools throughout America and the world. They show no doubt in their faith. It does help the bottom line.

Readers will note that there is no mention of education in the above reflections, especially in regard to the best pedagogy as our world lurches forward in this digital age.

When classroom instruction becomes memorization for tests, three necessary ingredients for the emerging world are lost: curious creativity and openness, a mind trained to celebrate innovation and growth, and the ability to analyze the basic underlying premises of systems.

For now, the capitalist form of education is set in Douglas County. Citizens and homeowners may question the direction, but only they can change it at the voting box.

The Rev. Frank R. Morris is a Castle Rock resident who retired from the United Church of Christ and also worked many years as a psychotherapist.

Lt. Col. Robert (Bob) John Erhart, USAF (RET), age 78, passed away August 10, 2013, in Castle Rock, CO following a long illness. He is survived by his loving wife of 28 years, Helene, his three children (from his first marriage to Carol Reilly,) Nancy Berry, David and George, and his stepsons Dan, David and Rob McMillan, sister Mary (Erhart) Porter, 13 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren.

Bob was born in San Francisco CA to Virginia and Eric Erhart March 14, 1935. He lived a full life traveling the world with family and Air Force. He retired from the Air Force in 1977 after 20 years of service.

His wife and family will fondly remember Bob’s devotion to

them, the stories he shared from his childhood and military career, as well as his interest in politics and world events. His bright spirit continued to shine despite the health challenges he faced over the last few years of his life. He will be very much missed by his family and many friends.

For additional obituary information about Bob’s life see www.HoranCares.com.

A Memorial service will be held Saturday, September 7, 2013 at 10:30 am at the St. Philip-in-the-Field Episcopal Church. Donations in Bob’s memory may be made to St. Philip-in-the-Field Episcopal Church, 397 S. Perry Park Rd., Sedalia, CO 80135.

Noise monitors installed by airport Ar Douglas, Arapahoe each get six gauges

By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com In a continued effort to keep the noise level down for people living and working in the flight path of Centennial Airport, the Arapahoe County Public Airport Authority is in the process of installing noise monitors in Arapahoe and Douglas counties.

The authority began site selection in 2009, selecting six locations in each county. The airport has already put up five monitors, all of which are solar, two on airport property, one in Cherry Creek State Park, and one each in Lone Tree and Castle Rock.

With the Aug. 27 approval by the Douglas County commissioners to allow for construction of a 22-foot tall monitor, similar in stature to a telephone pole, on public land along Fifth Street in Parker’s Grandview’s Estates, the airport authority now has clearance for all 12 monitors, the last of which will be installed this September.

“It will give us the capability to measure the actual noise of aircraft departing from and arriving at the airport,” said Michael Fronapfel, deputy director of planning and development with Centennial Airport.

“Having a noise system is not necessarily a

Castle Rock

requirement; however it’s one of the things the FAA is willing to fund to assist airports with addressing some of the noise impacts on the community.”

Fronapfel said the sites were selected to give a wide representation of flight paths into the airport as planes head over local communities, in addition in areas where the airport has received complaints of too much noise in the past.

“This study allows us to be able to go back to the FAA and say if a particular route is problematic for us,” Fronapfel said. “It’s good to have a historical picture of where we are making improvements or if we are going in the wrong direction.”

In addition to the Grandview Estates noise monitor, the remaining seven locations where monitors will be installed include the Meridian area, Surrey Ridge and at E-470 and Parker Road in Douglas County, as well as Greenwood Village, Aurora’s Sagebrush Park and Hunter’s Hill in Centennial in Arapahoe County. With the exception of a solar install in Surrey Ridge, the others will all be electric.

The expected lifespan of each monitor is 20 years, Fronapfel said, adding that the airport spent just $75,000 on the entire project, with the remaining $1.5 million coming from a Federal Aviation Administration grant.

No local tax dollars are being spent on the project.

t Artfest to make for lively weekend Nonprofit selling hamburgers to fund schooling for kids

IF YOUR VISION HAS BEEN AFFECTED BY GL AUCOMA, WE’RE HERE TO SEE YOU THROUGH.

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com Some of the people wandering around the Colorado Artfest at Castle Rock in 2012 had the opportunity to see and buy tons of art from local and out-of-state artists. But it was that hamburger or hot dog they bought that made the difference in 27 kids’ lives in Haiti.

Now, the Calvary Chapel youth group, based in Castle Rock, which spent two days at the barbecue grill at the 2012 Artfest and raised $5,000 — enough to enable 27 kids to have a year’s school, uniforms, materials and a meal a day — plan to do the same thing at the upcoming Sept. 7 and 8 Artfest.

But they hope to make more to help more kids.

“They’re precious little kids,” said Chris Kroger, a Calvary Chapel pastor who has spent time in Haiti helping, with different funds, to build a school there. And had moments weeping because of his huge wish to be able to bring them all home.

So, in addition to seeing art from about 180 artists — about 45 percent from other states — there are other types of opportunities.

Kid artists will be able to create artwork at the Imagination Zone, sponsored by Castle Rock Adventist Hospital. The hospital will take their work, make get-well cards and use them at the hospital.

On Sept. 7, there will be a high school chalk-art competition, sponsored by Lone Tree’s Sky Ridge Medical Center. It’s expected some kids will take hours that morning to create, and then the awards ceremony will be at 3 p.m.

Pam Ridler, president of the Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce, which sponsors the Artfest, said the biggest thing they’re seeing is that the quality of art at the juried Artfest has “substantially raised to different level, more so in the last five years, six years.” Only about half of the artists that ap-

There’s also a diversity of art, in type and price range. She said prices will range from about $25 to $13,000. One Florida painter, specializing in wildlife and recognized by the Audubon Society, will be at the Artfest — as will the artist who created the large bronze sculpture of horse and cowboy at the corner of Fifth and Gilbert streets.

Among the live entertainment, Phat Daddy, a rhythm and blues band that draws a large crowd, will be back.

Ridler said the event draws about 20,ooo to 25,000 people and has a “very good reputation.”

The event will take place from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sept. 7, and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Sept. 8, in the parking lots of Castle Rock Town Hall, 100 Wilcox St., and Philip S. Miller Library, 100 S. Wilcox St. Tickets are $5 for adults, $3 for seniors over 60, and kids under 12 are free.

Fossil Trace makes quite an impression More than 100 classic cars and 35 vintage aircraft helped raise awareness — and financial support — for the Morgan Adams Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving survival rates of children diagnosed with cancer. The annual Concours d’Elegance, held Aug. 24 in Centennial, attracted hundreds of patrons for an evening of fun and fundraising.

Wings, wheels fight cancer

Attendees throng to the TAC Air hangar at Centennial Airport for the 2013 Concours d’Elegance benefiting the Morgan Adams Foundation. Rare cars, planes and motorcycles were on hand for the festive evening.

One of the largest collections of rare automobiles and historically significant aircraft made its way to Centennial Airport on Aug. 24 for the Morgan Adams Foundation Concours d’Elegance, an annual charity auction and fundraiser for children diagnosed with cancer. More than 100 classic cars, 35 vintage aircraft and a handful of rare motorcycles served as the centerpiece for $150-per-person event. The organization works with leading physicians to directly fund pediatric cancer research and therapies to improve survival rates and reduce side effects. The foundation is named for the daughter of founders Steve Adams and Joan Slaughter. The 6-year-old girl died of brain cancer in 1998.

Gallery event has Western view Stories, music, poetry, art, food will be featured at gathering

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Visitors are welcome at a special event planned by Hilliard Moore’s Great Western Art Gallery in downtown Denver from 5 to 9 p.m. Sept. 20, where art, storytelling, music, poetry and cowboy vittles will be presented. A percentage of sales The Great Western Art Galproceeds will lery, which represents a numbenefit the Bufber of south area artists, is falo Bill Museum located in the Brooks Tower, in Golden.

1455 Curtis St., just north of Steve Friesen, the Denver Performing Arts historian, direcCenter. Hours: 11 a.m. to 6 tor of the Buffalo p.m. Mondays to Fridays, noon Bill Museum and to 5 p.m. Saturdays, Sundays author of “Bill: by appointment. 303-396Scout, Show2787, greatwesternartgalman and Visionleryllc.com. ary,” and Carolyn Campbell, artist and author of “Soiled Doves of Colorado and the Old West,” will be among the storytellers.

iF yoU Go

Fossil Trace Golf Course in Golden is listed among the “10 most unusual U.S. golf courses,” according to Forbes magazine contributor Larry Olmsted.

The writer raves about course designer Jim Engh, calling him “one of my favorite golf architects and way underrated by the general public, though the industry holds him in high acclaim.”

Olmstead also notes Fossil Creek’s preservation of rustic mining equipment and the history lesson the course provides with prehistoric dinosaur tracks through holes 11 to 15 left some 64 million years ago. “Triceratops footprints have been well marked next to the 12th green so golfers can take a look, and more fossils, plaster footprint casts, and ancient history are in the clubhouse,” Olmstead notes.

He forgets the great views the course offers from every direction, especially from holes No. 1 and 10, and the commune next to the 16th tee box.

PGA Tour is on the ball

The PGA Tour is not run by a slew of stooges.

Witness the television commercial already out touting the 2014 BMW Championships, part of the FedEx Cup playoff tournament series that will be played at Cherry Hills Country Club in Cherry Hills Village.

The advertisement features four of Denver’s best-known sports figures, from the Broncos: John Elway, Peyton Manning and John Lynch and ex-Denver Nuggets star Chauncey Billups (now with the Detroit Pistons but a Denver resident and native).

So Todd Helton and Joe Sakic are chopped liver?

The BMW Championship is the next to the last tournament of the FedEx Cup series that narrows the field to the final 30 that play at The TOUR Championship the following week. Next year’s BMW Championship will be played Sept. 4-7 at Cherry Hills. Tickets are already available at https://tickettapp.com/wms/buy/ bmw/2014 for the 2014 BMW Championship.

Decadent and delightful

“The Price of Winning” by Albert Micale will be featured at “Art of the Range” on Sept. 20, an evening promoting the Buffalo Bill Museum in Golden. Courtesy Photo Singer and Western entertainer Liz Masterson will perform at the free event. She has taken her yodeling, singing, humorous stories and guitar-playing skills across the country to the Smithsonian and the Kennedy Center.

She has appeared frequently at the Littleton Museum in past years.

Western art will be featured at the gallery through Oct. 25, including works by Albert Micale, who grew up in the East, drawing

cowboys and Indians since childhood, and became an established Western illustrator, although it was 1968 before he traveled west of the Mississippi. He studied history, collected books and other materials and painted from his imagination. He said he does not work from photographs.

In his “The Price of Winning,” the stars are positioned as they would be in a winter sky, according to Moore. The painting tells a sad story.

The fourth edition of Penny Parker Presents The Fourth Evening of Decadent Delights on Sept. 30 will take your taste buds on a culinary adventure while supporting Sense of Security, the Colorado nonprofit that covers non-medical expenses for breast cancer patients (www.senseofsecurity.org).

The enchanting evening begins at 6 p.m. at Balistreri Vineyards (66th and Washington) with a cocktail party sponsored by Downslope Distilling followed by a multi-course dinner at 7. Some of Denver’s finest chefs who will blow your culinary mind are: Troy Guard (TAG, TAG Parker continues on Page 19

Classic myths speak to today’s audiences ‘Metamorphoses’ plays at Aurora Fox Studio Theatre

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “Enchanting!” said a friend as we exited the Aurora Fox Studio Theatre still under a spell, while those who sat in the front row returned the ponchos they had been issued.

“Metamorphoses,” Mary Zimmerman’s beautifully crafted play based on ancient Greek and Roman mythology, is graced with an excellent cast, imaginative direction by Geoffrey Kent and an especially fine set design by Charles Dean Packard. Zimmerman had drawn on writings by Ovid and other classical and contemporary authors, including Rainier Maria Rilke.

The set, with its cleverly lit pool of blue water, is almost another character in the script, certainly important to the sounds one hears throughout. It splashes, rains, has a waterfall and is deep enough for characters to disappear underwater and exit backstage. One keeps wondering: “How did they do that?”

The pool is surrounded by wooden columns that suggest Greek predecessors — and walls with openings where gods and men (and women) appear to present a collection of stories and characters that are part of our cultural fabric — and the source for many contemporary tales: Orpheus and Eurydice, Narcissus, Aphrodite, Erysichthon and Ceres, Phaeton, Baucis and Philemon, Eros and Psyche …

We first meet a modern King Midas (a skilled Michael Morgan, who shines throughout), who talks like self-centered billionaire seen in the news today. A god, pleased with him, offers a wish and he asks that everything he touches might turn to gold. Although he has been shushing his ac-

Zachary Andrews and Jamie Morgan perform various parts in “Metamorphoses,” vignettes from classic mythology, by Mary Zimmerman at the Aurora Fox. Courtesy photo by A&J Photography tive daughter, he is heartbroken when she leaps into his arms and we all know what happens to her.

Staging of this scene and those that follow is carefully and precisely carried out, with musical background, extraordinary lighting and sound. Every splash — and there are many — has a part in the characters’ story and elegant language.

A sense of humor is emphasized throughout by Kent’s expert direction. His experience as a classical actor is apparent.

A whiny Phaeton floats on an air mattress and complains that his dad, Apollo, God of the Sun, won’t give him the keys to the car so “he can light up the world for a day.”

A studly Narcissus appears from the wall portal and proceeds to admire his reflection until he freezes and is re-

Englewood goes to the dogs

Dogs will be taking a dip at the sixth annual Freedom Festival & Doggie Plunge on Sept. 7 at Englewood’s Pirates Cove Aquatic Park.

The event benefits Freedom Service Dogs of America, which rescues shelter dogs and trains them to assist veterans.

Deborah Ortiz, one of numerous vendors, is a longtime resident of Denver’s Highland neighborhood who started painting as therapy after a serious accident and “discovered her artist within.” She created floral designs for family and friends for years before she began showcasing her art in local shows.

She paints unique floral art in homes and businesses and on up-cycled glass pieces. She uses an enamel-based glass paint, which she heat-cures for durability.

The fundraiser is open to the public and no reservations are required, according to LTACG president Maggie Eichenlaub, who says concessions will be available at the center for shoppers who need a bit of sustenance. Admission is free.

cil as to whether it wants to consider changes to current ordinances prohibiting open carry on public properties,” Slentz stated.

At the Aug. 6 council meeting, after Donahue suggested the weapons repeal, Councilmember Clark Hammelman commented about being uncomfortable if he knew audience members had guns, and quipped that he would “feel a little bit funny if they’re sitting there with their shotguns next to their chairs … and then when they come up to the witness stand they come up with their assault weapons. That would just bother me. It might be intimidating,” he said, and laughed.

Donahue’s response to Hammelman was that “the Constitution grants them that right. I’m not in the position to say we can just arbitrarily restrict that because … it makes us uneasy.”

Councilmember Jennifer Green added that there were people in the building with concealed weapons permits — and that as far as anyone knew, they might have a room of everyone carrying concealed weapons.

Hammelman and the rest of the council, except Councilmember Chip Wilson, who was absent, agreed to direct staff to research that possible repeal as well as the other Donahue requests.

The Castle View effort may serve as a pilot for a future districtwide apprentice program. Schneider and Classen are proud of and amazed by the students and their project, particularly since the class that sparked the

idea has long since ended.

“I think that’s what really makes these kids special,” he said. “No longer are they doing something for the class. They’re doing something in all truth for somebody else, because it’s something they found they had a passion for.”

“We want kids to find their passion, to think bigger than themselves,” Classen said. “I am so incredibly proud of these kids. This is what makes teaching worthwhile.”

“The ultimate (purpose) is taking the human element out of a dangerous situation,” Barrella said, adding that he expects the county to use it on 50 to 75 calls a year.

Because the county obtained the

robot through a federal grant, it must be shared with neighboring law eonforcement agencies, said Sheriff David A. Weaver. The jurisdictions that will benefit directly from Douglas County’s new Dragon Runner include Elbert and Lincoln counties, while it will serve as a backup for Arapahoe and Jefferson counties as well as Colorado Springs if they need a robot on call.

Huskies ride rally to tourney win Douglas County softball takes Don McCall by beating Legend

By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com It’s not usual to witness five-, six- or even seven-run rallies in high school girls softball games but Douglas County strung together 14 unanswered tallies to win the two-day, 15-team Don McCall tournament held in Castle Rock.

The Huskies, trailing 8-1 heading into the bottom of the third inning on Aug. 31, scored 14 runs in four innings to defeat

Continental League rival Legend, 15-10, in the championship game played at the Douglas County softball diamond.

“We scored 14 unanswered runs and this team believes in themselves,” said Douglas County coach Brian Stebbins. “There is no quit. They made their minds up the first week of the season that they were not going to lay down for anybody. They are going to play hard and they did that.”

Legend sent 12 batters to the plate in the third inning, ushered tiring Huskies’ starting pitcher Corell Breanna to the bench and scored seven runs to grab its 8-1 lead. Jesse Smith’s two-run homer and two-run single

by Steph Cardona highlighted the uprising.

Douglas County, now 7-0 on the season, scored nine runs in the fifth inning. The Huskies paraded 15 hitters to the plate and seven reached base before the Titans got an out. Smith relieved starter Janelle Gardner after Jenny Trapp’s double with the bases loaded scored three runs.

“Everyone got on base that inning,” said Trapp. “We just kept on hitting. We didn’t give up. I was just trying to hit the ball in play and elevate it so I could at least score a run if they caught it. I was lucky the hit got past them.”

In five tournament games, Trapp was 9-for-16 and scored seven runs.

“We’ve talked about Jenny since she was

a freshman,” said Stebbins. “She’ll be a fouryear letter winner this year. I’ve had a lot of good softball players but she’s the most complete softball player we have. She can play about five positions defensively. She is great to have in your lineup because she has great at-bats.”

Sam Hardy relieved Breanna, who had pitched nine innings in a 9-7 semifinal victory over Ponderosa earlier in the day. Hardy, a junior, allowed five runs and three hits in the third inning but then started keeping Legend batters off balance with her changeHuskies continues on Page 25

Comeback cats: Jaguars win season opener Rock Canyon overcomes Highlands Ranch’s large lead

By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Rock Canyon junior quarterback Ryan Hommel sparked a three-touchdown comeback in the Jaguars’ Aug. 30 seasonopening victory over Highlands Ranch at Shea Stadium.

The Jaguars can tote the confidence in their ability to respond from a deficit into the rest of the season after rallying to pull out a 24-21 victory over the Falcons in front of a standing-room crowd.

“I think we can always say we are never out of it,” said Brian Lamb, who earned his first victory as Rock Canyon’s new head coach. “We are always going to fight to the end and keep playing. We will hopefully be in good enough shape to win the fourth quarter and that’s what it is all about.”

Rock Canyon trailed 21-3 with 5:59 left in the third quarter but Hommel got untracked to spark the three-touchdown rally to pull out the win with 15-yard TD pass to Jack Lamb with 36.9 seconds remaining in the game.

John Riley’s 2-point conversion run gave Rock Canyon a 3-point lead after the Jaguars failed on a conversion attempt after second touchdown.

Highlands Ranch could not get past its own 40-yard line in the waning seconds.

Rock Canyon’s winning 67-yard touchdown drive took only 47 seconds and Hommel connected on two of three passes for 26 yards and scrambled twice for 19 yards including one run for 15 yards on a thirdand-three play.

Hommel completed 12 of 28 passes for 111 yards and two touchdowns. Under heavy pressure from the Falcons’ defense, he hit on only one of 11 pass attempts early in the game.

“That’s part of being a quarterback,” said Hommel who passed for 1,462 yards during his sophomore campaign. “You have to do anything you can to help the team win. We knew we were down 20 points but we could come back. This will do a lot for us the rest of the season.”

Rock Canyon hosts Arvada West on Sept.

5 while Highlands Ranch entertains Ponderosa on Sept. 6 at Shea Stadium.

Highlands Ranch played a bunch of young players in going 2-8 last season but the Falcons looked like a team that benefitted from gaining experience until appearing to wear down late in the game.

Falcons junior quarterback Keaton Thames completed seven of 12 passes for 141 yards and two touchdowns. At least two of his incompletions were passes he intentionally threw away. He also rushed for a touchdown as he was involved in all three of his team’s touchdowns.

Thames’ 74-yard TD strike to Eric Dynes in the third quarter appeared to give the Falcons a comfortable 18-point lead.

“I still had confidence,” said Lamb. “I knew we were making plays. We just had to shore up our mistakes. We made many mistakes in the kicking game and we definitely have things to work on.

“I felt we kept up the pressure and we slowly wore them down and started to gas them a little bit in the run game and finally in our pass game they couldn’t rush our quarterback as quick. We were able to get some passes off.”

Lamb replaced Tom Lynch as Rock Canyon football coach last March and said it “felt great” to get his first Jaguars win under his belt.

“We’re a young team with new systems,” he said. “We started from scratch almost like coaching freshman football. The kids have really worked hard, wanting to improve, wanting to get better, wanting to embrace what we want to teach them.”

up in shutting out the Titans for three innings.

“The change-up is my go-to pitch,” said Hardy.

“It’s my favorite and I love the reaction I get from batters. They are just completely taken off guard.

I didn’t really mentally prepare myself as well as I should have when I came in to pitch. It really did take me a while to settle down.”

Legend (6-3) did score twice in the seventh after two girls were out but the Titans seemed to lose motivation after their seven-run third inning.

“It was like we felt like we’d already won the ball game or it was the lack of intensity,” said Legend coach Shelly Boyd. “I’m very proud of them. We’re a very young team. This is the first time Legend has been in a championship game. Legend softball is on the map now.’’

Ponderosa, which gave up two runs in the bottom of the ninth in a semifinal loss to Douglas County, scored twice in the bottom of the sixth to capture third place with an 8-7 victory over Castle View.

The Mustangs committed 17 errors in the two games played Aug. 31.

“We played OK,” said Ponderosa coach Toby Tabola. “I liked the way we didn’t give up. We kept a good attitude on the bench and the team. I’m disappointed with the errors again. We had eight errors in that game against DC. That can’t happen. It happened last year and we’re working hard to get better and I thought we were better but not in that game. All in all, I’m happy with the team and where we’re headed but defensively we have to get better.”

Continental League teams Douglas County, Legend, Ponderosa and Castle View went a combined 11-0 in pool play to advance to the semifinals. The Huskies beat Palmer Ridge and Fountain Fort Carson by a combined score of 18-1. Legend outscored Denver East, Pine Creek and Lewis Palmer by a 26-5 margin, Ponderosa whipped Palmer, Florence and Pueblo Centennial, 14-2, while Castle View outscored Vista Ridge, LaJunta and Elizabeth, 30-1.

“It’s a great tournament,” explained Tabola.

“There is a little talent disparity between the top four, five or six teams and the rest of them. It would be nice if that narrowed a little but I love the tour-

Ponderosa junior pitcher Ally Power threw a sixinning, perfect game in the 8-0 win over Pueblo Central.

Power pitched 24 innings in the tournament, struck out 47 batters and allowed one earned run.

She also hit two home runs against Douglas County.

“Ally had a good tournament,” said Tabola. “She’s doing everything we can ask her to do. She stepped up and threw hard this weekend and produced with the bat too. What I love, even though we had eight errors in the DC game, she didn’t get down on her teammates. She doesn’t storm around. That’s hard because we should have won that game.”
