School official looks to future Larsen says he aims to unite community, change meetings By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Kevin Larsen, likely the next Douglas County School Board president, said he hopes to help mend the rift in the community created during the recent election. Now vice president of the board, Larsen is expected to fill the lead position vacated by term-limited president John Carson. A believer in the board’s education re-

form policies, Larsen said he’s pleased the candidates who share those beliefs won the Nov. 5 election. But he also recognizes that not everyone feels the same way. “Part of my belief is I’m in the right place at the Larsen right time for what Douglas County needs,” he said. “I’m going to offer everything I can as a leader to get this community together, and to make education deliver what we need to for these kids.” Larsen said the quantity of votes the losing candidates received exceeds that of any

other school board candidates in any previous race. “So I’m respectful and know there were many people who supported the other candidates,” he said. “I think what we got was approval from the majority of voters to say, ‘Continue the strategic plan, more of us are supporting it than don’t.’ “I think we’ve articulated what we believe. Equally, or maybe at this moment, more importantly, how we say it is going to make the difference of getting unity in the community.” While the board hasn’t voted on any changes to meetings, Larsen has ideas he believes will improve interactions between the board, community members and

teachers. Those include holding regular working session meetings as well as board meetings and limiting public comment during board meetings to agenda items to ensure meetings stay productive. Separate community forums would then serve as an opportunity for parents and others to express separate concerns. He also hopes to address the concern many have about the amount of time the board spends in executive session. “I don’t know if it means fewer, but I want to increase the perception and the reality of having a lot more things done out in

Castle Pines mayor faces complaint Use of city logo in question By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com It’s expected that Castle Pines Mayor Jeffrey Huff’s lead in the Nov. 5 election will hold when a canvassing board meets Nov. 21 to certify the vote. But in the meantime, there is a campaign issue to deal with — a hearing on an alleged campaign violation. Castle Pines Councilmember James Einolf, in a complaint he filed Oct. 30 with the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office, is alleging that Huff’s use of the city’s trademarked logo without permission for cam-

paign materials violates provisions of the Colorado Fair Campaign Practices Act. An Office of Administrative Courts hearing was scheduled for 1 p.m. Nov. 14 in Denver. Einolf also had concerns about other campaign actions but on Nov. 8 told Colorado Community Media he was seeking to remove those from the complaint. “James has informed me that he would like to amend his complaint, dropping several of his original allegations,” Huff stated in a Nov. 8 email. “Once my attorney and I have reviewed his new allegation, we will respond appropriately.” With regard to the use of the city logo, Einolf alleges that Huff sent out a cam-

paign mailer with the registered trademark logo even though Huff didn’t enter into a licensing agreement with the city, nor pay a licensing fee. Andrew Cole, a spokesman for the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office, told Colorado Community Media Nov. 7 that since this is a campaign finance complaint, if Huff is found to have violated state law, there could be fines, but it would have “no bearing on the election results.” Cole also said the administrative law judge hearing the case “could take weeks to hear the evidence and come up with a decision,” because the timeline is up to the judge.

It’s back, after all. A proposed 200-acre Castle Rock retail project that would be next to — mainly north of — the Outlets at Castle Rock and potentially twice as big, up to 900,000 square feet, will be on the town council’s agenda later this month. This after the city council, a couple months ago, decided to table the project indefinitely after negotiations between the developer and town didn’t result in an agreement — on such issues as economic incentives for the developer, public improvement fees and metropolitan district issues. Information wasn’t available on what changed to make the project possible again, something that the council would consider. But Karen McGrath, town spokeswoman, indicated this would be a long process of “many pieces.” She did say that the project — called Promenade by the developer, Greenwood Village-based Alberta Development Partners LLC — hasn’t changed in scope and size. It was in July when the town council gave 7-0 approval to a proposed private/ public partnership with Alberta — a company that has created projects in Denver and elsewhere, including the Streets at Southglenn in Centennial. In that vote, councilmembers were approving a conceptual structure in which Alberta “would be responsible for all private costs and financial risk and would be responsible for implementing the project.” Retail continues on Page 12

Castle Pines mayor keeps slight lead

CRAFT FAIR WARES

Unofficial tally gives Huff 56-vote margin By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com In the Castle Pines mayoral race, incumbent Jeffrey Huff appeared to be on his way to re-election, capturing nearly 51 percent of the vote in his race against Dana Hall, according to the final update of results by Douglas County the afternoon of Nov. 6. The final unofficial results show a gap of 56 votes between Huff, with 2,059 votes (50.7 percent), and Hall, who received 2,003 votes (49.3 percent). Jack Arrowsmith, Douglas County’s clerk and recorder, said those numbers won’t change until the Nov. 21 Board of Canvass report, at which time he estimated there might be a handful of additional votes. In the Ward 2 council race, Resa Labossiere got 86 percent of the vote to defeat Michael Graczyk by a vote of 973-155. In Ward 3, the other contested race, Roger Addlesperger got 58 percent of the vote, besting Councilmember Jaime Edwards by a vote of 691 votes to 498. Rex Lucas, who ran unopposed in Ward 1 for the seat of Kathy DesRosiers, who decided not to run again, got 45 votes. On the ballot question of whether to make the elected treasurer position an appointed job, 57.5 percent didn’t want the change, by a vote of 2,262 to 1,672. Gregg Fisher, a computer science and network design company owner, was the sole treasurer candidate, with 3,075 votes. The question of whether to make the elected position of city clerk an appointed one appears to have the OK from voters, with 50.5 percent wanting the change, by a vote of 1,987 to 1,947.

Cards spread awareness, joy Proceeds of holiday event benefit Children’s Hospital By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com

SUPPORT

For the past 20-plus years, patients from the Children’s Hospital Colorado’s Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders have created designs for holiday cards. Once the winning designs are selected, cards are then sold to help raise money for the center and purchase items such as wigs and medical bracelets for patients. Among the 10 artists selected out of 91 entries this year were 6-year-old Bella Webster from Highlands Ranch and 11-year-old Liberty Tyus of Littleton. Bella, a first-grader at Cherry Hills Christian School, has leukemia and a love of dolphins. She plans to take a trip to swim with one once her treatment is done. Liberty, meanwhile, is a sixth-grade honor student at Goddard Middle School. She was diagnosed with acute lymphoma in second grade, and after two years of chemotherapy treatments she is now in full remission, and as opposed to dolphins now keeps busy swimming with Piranhas — the local club swim team, that is. Both girls received $250 cash and a special plaque from the Holiday Card Project for their winning designs, but for Liberty what was even more important was the knowledge she was helping and educating others. “The money goes to research,” Liberty said. “And if you see someone with one of these cards that we made, most people are going to ask, `Where did you get it?’ It really helps spread awareness about cancer and what it does to kids.” It is the second year in a row Liberty has won the contest and the budding artist plans on entering again next year. “It’s an amazing feeling for me

Liberty Tyus, 11, of Littleton, is one of 10 Children’s Hospital patients to have her artistic design featured on a holiday card that will benefit the hospital’s Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders. This is the second year in a row that Liberty has won the art competition. Courtesy photo that people are seeing and buying my cards,” she said. “I’ve always wanted to sell my artwork. I used to have a dream that I wanted to open up a store but I didn’t get around to it ... probably because I was 3.” Liberty’s design — which was inspired by the fact that Christmas has always been something to look forward to, especially while she was in chemotherapy — shows a hilly scene with a girl at one end, a home at the other, and wintry features, including a snowman, in between. The message on the card is: “Life is a journey. It has ups and downs. But you can always count on Christmas being one of the ups.” Bella’s card features a picture of a colorful wreath with the timeless

“Happy Holidays” message written above the wreath. “It is a nice way to recognize kids and their talents,” said Connie Brakken-Smith, project co-chair for the second straight year. “It’s also a way for them to do something creative that makes them feel like a normal kid without an illness and for those kids that get selected to be celebrated. Some of the art is pretty amazing too.” To purchase holiday cards or a decorated white chocolate pretzel tin, visit www.holidaycardproject.org, call 720-777-6286 or stop by the hospital gift shop at 13123 E. 16th Ave. in Aurora. They will also be available at the Children’s Hospital South Campus at Plaza Drive and Lucent Boulevard in Highlands Ranch after Dec. 4.

The bald and the beautiful Rocky Vista shows support for student fighting cancer By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com There were so many bald heads under Rocky Vista University’s roof, one could have easily mistaken it as a convention for the follically challenged. Instead, it was a head-shaving event in support of Michelle Valentine, a student at the college of osteopathic medicine on Chambers Road north of E-470. Thousands of dollars were raised for the Susan G. Komen foundation, and the camaraderie among the students was further solidified Nov. 1. Valentine, 37, was diagnosed with breast cancer in June. Her chemotherapy treatments have left her completely bald, but she rocks the look with confidence. When the school wanted to organize a fundraising event, the headshaving event was a natural choice. Valentine elected to

have the money go specifically toward research aimed at helping breast cancer patients under 40, a population she says is underrepresented. The second floor of the university, packed with supporters, buzzed with excitement, nervousness and the sound of clippers run by a handful of stylists from Floyd’s 99 Barbershop. Women lined up to get thin pink extensions in their hair and dozens of men waited to their locks chopped. Some know Valentine, and some don’t. Christopher Gilsdorf, a second-year Rocky Vista student from Fort Collins, had his hair cut by Nester Bustos, a Floyd’s 99 stylist who participates in at least one community charity event per year. Gilsdorf, who says he knows Valentine “a little,” raised $50 for the cause. Aside from Valentine, the star of the head-shaving event was Dr. Rebecca Bowden, a Rocky Vista professor who raised more than $7,500 and faced the clippers. It was her first time going bald and she admitted to the crowd on hand that it “felt good.” Bowden, who has had Valentine in some of her classes, succinctly summed up her line of thinking about donating time, money and hair on behalf of Valentine. “We’re family,” Bowden said of the small, tight-knit school that opened in 2008. Valentine must undergo radiation treatment and surgery, but her spirits are bright. She was uplifted by the number of people who got involved in the head-shaving event and described it as “one of the coolest things of my life.” She said it speaks to the character of medical students and their willingness to step up for others in need.

Cigarette linked to fire where death occurred ed that when they had walked by the exterior of the apartment, there was water coming out from underneath the front door. They opened the unit to turn off the water, noticed smoke damage and immediately called 911. Fire crews as well as police arrived on scene and discovered one victim. It is unclear at this time, when the fire started, according to the news release. Investigators determined that the fire was accidental, and started when a lit cigarette fell from the countertop into a full trash can and spread to the cabinets in the kitchen. Remains of the cigarette were still on the counter. Rick Auston, Castle Rock’s division chief fire marshal, said Nov. 11 that there was heat, soot and smoke damage throughout the apartment, but

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com The identity of a person who died in a Castle Rock apartment fire last week still wasn’t available Nov. 11. The Douglas County Coroner’s Office has been working to identify the victim and determine the cause and time of death, according to a Castle Rock news release. Castle Rock police and firefighters responded to the Reserves at Castle Rock Apartments, 1020 Highland Ridge Way, at about 10 a.m. Nov. 7 after apartment maintenance workers there had called 911 to report smoke damage in the unit. The maintenance workers report-

the fire damage was isolated to the counter top and trash can. He said a couple things helped extinguish the fire including that the fire ran out of oxygen in the closed apartment and that a water line under a kitchen cabinet “was compromised as a result of the fire” and acted as a sprinkler. In addition, the “apartments are very well built too,” which could have helped stop the fire’s spread, he said. The apartments have fire resistant walls with one-hour ratings, which means it takes one hour for a raging fire to breach the wall and reach a neighboring unit, according to the news release. Investigators discovered that smoke detectors in the apartment had been disabled.

Small town’s park is a big hit Ball teams come from far away to play in Larkspur By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com When offered free bathrooms — entire bathroom buildings from an Interstate 25 rest areas — and 23 free concrete picnic tables and some large free trees and other materials, the town of Larkspur accepted it all from the Colorado Department of Transportation. And that helped stretch the town’s about $600,000 in Colorado lottery dollars, said Matt Krimmer, Larkspur town manager recently. With that and about $200,000 the town had saved over several years and in-kind help, plus a local contractor that “cut quite a bit of his costs,” Krimmer said, the town of about 200 people that had only one sort-of park before — Petunia Park, which is about a third of an acre — now has another park. And it recently won a state award. It’s a 10-acre park in the heart of town that a lottery spokesman, Matt Robbins, recently called a “show-stopper” on Nov. 8 as he was presenting the Larkspur Town Council a trophy and memorabilia for being named one of the state’s best lottery fund projects. The park, built on land the town acquired about 20 years ago for this purpose, has such things as a playground, volleyball courts, sledding hill, fitness trail and fitness stations and a council fire ring with benches. Events such as the annual craft fair was more than twice as big this year in the new park. And it’s helping businesses, Krimmer said, which was what the town was hoping for. But what is creating a lot of interest, much of it from outside of town, is the park’s regulation ball field with dugouts and grandstands. It so meets league standards for teams wanting a nice tournament location, and is so meticulously maintained, that it’s drawing teams from as far away as metro Denver and Colorado Springs to play there, Krimmer said. Robbins told Colorado Community Media after the trophy presentation that he had never seen Larkspur or the park before when he drove into town for the park’s grand opening. “It blew my mind,” he said when he saw the park, which is right off the main road in the heart of things, and now because of its size kind of eclipses everything in this little town of a few scattered buildings. “The minute you come over 10.25the in. hill and see that park … a community of this size, you’re not prepared to see a park of that scale.”

Larkspur Community Park was funded in part with about $600,000 in Colorado Lottery funds. Photo by Virginia Grantier Krimmer said the town wasn’t thinking about applying for an award until Robbins told him at the grand opening that the town should really apply for the award because of the scope of what’s been accomplished. The award, called the Colorado Lottery Starburst Community Award, “recognizes excellence in the use of Lottery proceeds in community projects implemented to enhance a community’s environment,” according to a news release. “It’s endless,” said Larkspur Councilmember Joseph Jeske, liaison to town staff on park and recreation matters, commenting about its continuous use, how he always sees people there. The scope of the project even caused a local business person to decide, instead of renovating her restaurant’s old building, to build a new and larger building because of the park’s draw, Krimmer said. The park was done in five stages, from 2008-2013, and in addition to the things the public can see such as the extensive landscaping, it involved construction of an irrigation system and utilities work, additional parking and roadwork. And the town might not be done yet. Krimmer said the town council is eyeing a five-acre area north of the park that’s for sale and could be a spot for something as simple as a wildflower area or for such things as tennis courts, a gazebo and pond, and that popular water feature that kids love with bubbling spray jets.

opinions / yours and ours

Take precautions this holiday season The holiday season is a beautiful time of year that can bring people together. But it can also be a time fraught with hazards. That’s something that can easily be overlooked amid the shopping, cooking, partying and keeping warm by the fire. But we encourage you to consider some of the following tips to make the closing weeks of 2013 memorable for the right reasons.

Snuff out fire danger

Winter residential fires — which peak in December and January — result in 945 deaths and cause nearly $2 billion in property damage nationally in a typical year, according to the U.S. Fire Administration, an entity of the Federal Emergency Management Agency. It’s not quite winter yet, but recent cold snaps remind us that it’s on the way. The administration has some advice to keep fire threats at bay, which we share below. A more detailed list of things you can do can be found at www.usfa.fema.gov/ citizens/home_fire_prev/holiday-seasonal/

our view winter.shtm • Cooking is the leading cause of these types of fires. Unattended cooking is the No. 1 culprit, so stay in the kitchen when frying, grilling or broiling. Wear short, close-fitting clothing, for obvious reasons. Maybe most important, stay alert at all times. • Heating sources — including furnaces, fireplaces and space heaters — are another major cause of fires in the home. It is important to keep flammable materials at a safe distance, generally considered to be 3 feet or more, from a heating source. If you’re using a space heater, it is highly recommended that you plug it directly into the outlet and not use an extension cord. Also, make sure your home has a working smoke alarm and that you have an escape plan for yourself

question of the week

Are you a Miley fan? With the announcement that Miley Cyrus will make a stop at Denver’s Pepsi Center on March 4 during her upcoming tour, Colorado Community Media went to the Streets at SouthGlenn to ask: Are you a fan of the entertainer famous for Hannah Montana and, more recently, twerking?

“It’s not my type of music. Really, I’d rather she didn’t come to Denver.” — Mike Hecker, Centennial

“My kids like her songs but I’m not a fan. I guess I just don’t get her.” — Jose Pinedo, Littleton

“Miley Cyrus is OK but I wouldn’t pay to see her. She’s a little too over the top for me.” — Kate Graham, Englewood

“She’s become very trashy. My daughter used to watch Hannah Montana. But since she left Disney, she’s gone downhill fast.” — Suzanne Kisner, Centennial

Finding balance in social media So I had an interesting experience this past week regarding the use my Facebook account, or maybe I should say misuse of my account. What I had done was accept friend requests or connect with people that I work with on a professional level. I had connected with all of my family members, friends, co-workers, business associates, and customers and really thought it was a great way to stay in touch, keep up with their activities and interests and allow them to keep up with what I was doing. The problem was that I had some new things happening in my life, good and exciting things that I was sharing via my Facebook account. As much as I was excited about the cool things going on, apparently there were one or two co-workers who I was connected with on Facebook who felt compelled to stalk my activities and adventures as I posted them on Facebook and further decided to share them with others in the company. Now there was nothing weird or unnatural about my Facebook posts, these folks just thought that they should share my life’s journey with everyone else at the office. This actually caused a little drama and unfortunately resulted in the need for me to “unfriend” all of the people I work with. And at first I was a little dis-

appointed, hurt, and angry. But then as I thought more about it, perhaps Facebook is a much better application to be used with family and friends and connect or interact with my business associates and co-workers in a different way. I already do that via LinkedIn, and since I only use LinkedIn for business reasons, it made so much more sense. The past week has been a test for me, I do miss keeping up with some of my coworkers through Facebook, but I think my anger, hurt, and disappointment have been replaced by a true sense of balance. Facebook for friends and family members and LinkedIn for co-workers and business associates. So far it is working beautifully. Now I understand that many people Norton continues on Page 7

Protect your identity

Drinking? Don’t drive

For many, shopping is a holiday hobby, one that carries a risk 0f identity theft, whether online or at the mall. The Federal Trade Commission has some advice to help keep important, private information secure. More information can be found at www.consumer.ftc.gov/features/ feature-0014-identity-theft • Travel light. Do not carry around more credit, debit or identification cards than you really need. • Shred receipts once you no longer need them. When at the store or mall, you might want to keep those receipts in your pocket instead of in the bag, which can be lost or

Holiday parties often involve alcohol. Some people drink too much, then decide to drive, and the results can be horrific. In fact, Mothers Against Drunk Driving reports that 43 percent of driving fatalities on Christmas Day are alcohol-related. DUI enforcement generally goes up this time of year as well, so there’s an increased risk to drunken drivers’ wallets, as a conviction can be costly, both in court fees and higher insurance costs. If you’re going to drink, taking a cab or using a sober designated driver are common-sense solutions to avoid hurting yourself and others.

Not time for a change Apparently we were supposed to change our clocks sometime in November. Is that correct? Well, I haven’t changed any of mine, and I don’t plan to. Five of them changed all by themselves: the one on my television, the one on my computer, the ones on both telephones, and the one on the thermostat. That’s enough for me. It’s a pain in the neck, and everything in the house came with a clock. Think about it: the coffeemaker, oven, microwave, two clock radios, two wall clocks, the stereo, the DVD player, and Smitty’s dog dish. The car has one too. I have turned off some of them so I don’t have to see my life passing away on every appliance I own. I think Fall Back and Spring Forward is a dumb concept that has no real benefit. Try to guess who and why daylight-saving time was first proposed. Here’s a multiplechoice quiz. Take your time: 1.

George Vernon Hudson. He wanted to have an extra hour of daylight to collect insects. I have often wondered why he didn’t just leave things alone, and collect fireflies after work. At some point — in the third grade? — I think we all realize that a day isn’t perfectly symmetrical all year long. There’s more daylight in the summer than there is in the winter. Sooner or later we hear about something called a leap year (or a bissextile year) when an extra day is added to February. I have a friend who was born on a Feb. 29, and when she turned 64, she claimed she was only 16, because she had only had four true birthdays. So early on in life we figured out that time is adjusted, and it has been ever since ancient civilizations got it rolling. It’s fine with me if February gets an extra day every fourth year, but I am good with not being expected to squirrel around with clocks otherwise. The good thing is that it’s not criminal if you don’t. Smith continues on Page 7

Survey shows disparities in medical care by race Black Coloradans report more health difficulties By Kristin Jones

I-News at Rocky Mountain PBS Black Coloradans see the doctor less frequently, get less preventive care and report being in worse health than other residents of the state, according to a recent health survey. The biennial Colorado Health Access Survey, which polled 10,224 households between April 15 and July 27, provides one of the most comprehensive snapshots of how Colorado residents experience the health-care system. The latest survey, released Nov. 5, gives an important look at the current status of health care in the state ahead of a broad set of changes promised by the Affordable Care Act and the expansion of Medicaid. Around 14 percent of the Coloradans surveyed said they were uninsured, down from around 16 percent in 2011. But these numbers — and nearly all the information collected in the phone survey — varied widely across regions, income levels, age groups and ethnic groups, highlighting disparities in the way Coloradans receive medical care. Only 5.3 percent of the people living in Douglas County didn’t have any insurance, for example, while in northwest Colorado, a region that includes Routt, Moffat, Rio Blanco and Jackson counties, around 25 percent were uninsured. Hispanics were the most likely to be uninsured. Around 22 percent of Latinos polled in the latest survey said they didn’t have any insurance. Still, more Hispanics had insurance than just two years ago, when 26 percent said they were uninsured.

Roughly 12 percent of non-Hispanic whites were uninsured, down from 13 percent in 2011. By contrast, a growing number of African-Americans reported being uninsured than in the past. Roughly 20 percent of those surveyed said they were uninsured, up sharply from 14 percent in 2011. The trend marked continued erosion in the ranks of the insured in Colorado’s small African-American community. In 2009, only 12 percent of African-Americans surveyed said they didn’t have insurance. At the same time, black Coloradans were increasingly less likely to report having seen a general doctor in the previous year or to have received preventive care. And around 19 percent of African-Americans in the state said they used the emergency room as their primary source of care, compared with 5.7 percent of the population as a whole. Grant Jones, executive director of the Denver-based Center for African American Health, said the information was surprising. “At a time when we’re moving toward greater access and coverage and quality of care,” Jones said, “it’s alarming to see fewer people accessing care and seeing a doctor on a regular basis in the African-American community.” But African-Americans weren’t skipping the doctor because they were healthier, the findings suggests. Instead, fewer black people in Colorado reported being in excellent health than other communities, while more reported being in poor health. Black Coloradans were more likely than others to cite cost as a barrier to care, or to say they didn’t seek an appointment be-

cause they were uninsured, according to the Colorado Health Institute’s analysis of the survey. They were also more likely to say that they couldn’t get a doctor’s appointment in time, had trouble getting transportation or couldn’t get time off work. “There’s lots of good research that points to the benefits of having primary and preventive care,” said Jeff Bontrager, director of research on coverage and access for Colorado Health Institute. More doctor visits means more immunization for kids, early screening for cancer, mammograms and the chance to develop a relationship with a doctor, Bontrager notes. That’s the kind of health care that not only treats illness but stops it from developing in the first place. The wide health discrepancies across the state provide an invitation to dig deep-

er into the causes and consequences, says Gretchen Hammer, executive director of the Colorado Coalition for the Medically Underserved. “I don’t think this gives us the answer of why,” says Hammer. “It directs us to engage in these communities and see what they’re experiencing.” Jones believes that the Affordable Care Act should help improve access to care among African-Americans. But he says more should be done to focus on the communities that aren’t receiving adequate care. “If we could make a dent in improving outcomes for African-Americans and Latinos,” said Jones, “it would lift the status of our state in a dramatic way.”

What the survey found By I-News Network at Rocky Mountain PBS The 2013 Colorado Health Access Survey, a biennial survey by the Colorado Trust and Colorado Health Institute, asks Colorado residents for their views on a variety of health issues. For the major questions, it breaks out results by 21 regions. The most populous counties are self-contained regions, while others are a combination of contiguous counties. Here is a look at what the survey found for some of the counties and regions along Colorado’s Front Range:

Douglas

The county had the lowest rate of uninsured residents in the state in 2013 at 5.4 percent. That’s down from 7.3 percent in 2011, when it was also the lowest rate in the state. The county also had among the highest use of the medical system by its residents.

Hickenlooper unveils $24 billion budget Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com Those dreaded DMV wait times and skyrocketing college costs could see some alleviation, under Gov. John Hickenlooper’s proposed budget for next year. The governor detailed a $24 billion budget — one that he called “equal parts of optimism and prudence” — during a presentation to a state legislative committee on Nov. 7. As presented, the 2014-2015 budget includes increases in total funds and reserves compared to this year, an accomplishment that Hickenlooper attributes to a state economy that has now seen four consecutive years of growth since emerging from a recession. “We have now exceeded pre-Great Recession peak employment levels and there are only a few numbers of states that have done that,” Hickenlooper told the Legislature’s Joint Budget Committee. “This re-

covery puts Colorado’s economy literally among the very best in the United States.” Hickenlooper singled out four “high priority” areas that will receive special focus as part of next year’s budget: “Education, customer service, health care and public safety.” The proposed budget would cap higher education tuition growth at 6 percent. That would halt a five-year trend that has seen an average tuition rate grow 10 percent, according to Henry Sobanet, the governor’s budget director. The governor also proposes adding more than $40 million for college financial aid, which he called a “historic increase” for higher education funding. “This budget request would allow more families to send kinds to college,” Hickenlooper told the committee. The budget also proposes a $223 perpupil increase for K-12 students next year. However, the governor acknowledged that the increase falls short of complying with

Amendment 23 — the 2000 measure that reversed a trend where education funding was falling behind the rate of inflation. The governor’s budget does not include education dollars that would have come had Amendment 66 past last week. The tax hike for education funding measure was soundly defeated on Nov. 5. Hickenlooper also seeks to revamp the Division of Motor Vehicles, though increased staffing and updated computer systems, which are a part of “long-overdue steps to modernize DMV.” The governor said that the increased funding would significantly reduce wait times for customers who seek services from the often-lampooned state division. Various health care departments, including Human Services and Public Health and Environment, will see a combined $618 million increase through next year’s proposed budget. And developmentally disabled persons are expected to experience shorter wait-

ing lists for services that include assisted housing, through an additional $22 million in proposed funding. The Department of Corrections — which Hickenlooper said is expected to deal with a 2.3 percent inmate increase — will also receive about $42 million in additional funding next year, about a 6 percent budget increase, much of which will go toward a parole division makeover and a fugitive apprehension unit. The proposed budget also includes more money for savings. General fund reserves will increase to 6.5 percent, up from 5 percent this year. State Sen. Kent Lambert, R-Colorado Springs, praised Hickenlooper’s efforts to increase reserve funds, especially in light of wildfire and flood disasters that have struck the state in recent years. “I would give you the highest laudatory comments on the fact that we have stayed on that growth toward that state reserve, and we’ve needed it,” Lambert said.

Douglas County turnout likely set off-year record State issues, school race motivated voters By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Douglas County voters likely set a new off-year voter turnout record during the Nov. 5 election, according to county Clerk and Recorder Jack Arrowsmith. Numbers won’t be final until the Board of Canvass, which certifies the election results, meets Nov. 21, but unofficial numbers show more than 50 percent of registered voters cast ballots. About 190,000 ballots were mailed and

106,812 returned, unofficial results show. “I think our next highest was 2009, which was about 47 percent,” Arrowsmith said. “For an off-year election, I believe this is going to break records in terms of our turnout. “We had two controversial state questions on the ballot and four controversial school board seats. I’m sure all of that stimulated turnout.” No school board candidate enjoyed a landslide victory. Douglas County Republican-endorsed candidates Doug Benevento, Jim Geddes, Judi Reynolds and Meghann Silverthorn won by percentages ranging from about 52 to 53.5 percent. In each of the four school board races, more than 6,000 people voted on other is-

sues but chose neither candidate; 35 people voted for both candidates. While challenger candidate Julie Keim’s campaign manager initially said she would ask for a recount on election night, Keim later said they would not proceed with the request. Arrowsmith said the numbers suggest it wouldn’t alter the results. “The automatic recount point is half of 1 percent,” he said. “In our closest race, the difference was 6.9 percent — way larger. People can request a recount if they’re willing to pay for it, but I can’t really see how there would be a change in that many votes.” Of those who voted, about 47 percent were Republicans, nearly 20 percent Dem-

ocrats and 32 percent unaffiliated. Those numbers mirror almost exactly the makeup of Douglas County’s registered voters, which stands at 46 percent Republican, 20 percent Democrat, and 34 percent for all others. Another unusual aspect of the Nov. 5 election: Though it was a mail-in ballot, 23,259 ballots — almost 12 percent of the total votes cast — came in on Election Day. Adjacent counties recorded a similar trend, Arrowsmith said. The Nov. 5 turnout still pales in comparison to a presidential year election, Arrowsmith said, which he described as typically “off the charts in Douglas County” at about 90 percent.

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Keep your feelings to yourself as you work through an awkward circumstance. Complaining is useless, and also unwise since your words could come back to haunt you. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) A sudden flash of Bovine practicality shows you how you might be able to turn your artistic pursuits into a profitable venture. A spouse or partner offers some sage advice. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Be prepared with several “Plan Bs” that you might have to use as backups just in case you encounter some troublesome complications with your carefully constructed schedule. CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) You might think you’ll never have a free moment again with the demands of the workplace piling on. Cheer up. The pressure eases as holiday time nears. An old friend brings good news. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Your Leonine pride might make it difficult to offer an apology to a co-worker you unintentionally offended. But a quick and sincere “I’m sorry” could prevent problems down the line. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) This is a good time to tackle those backed-up chores that have kept you from moving into other and potentially more worthwhile projects. A personal matter needs your attention. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) You usually have no problem rushing to the defense of someone you perceive as being treated unjustly. But perceptions could be deceiving this week. Check the facts before you act. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Before you point fingers at who might be to blame for the unexpected change in your plans, take a few moments to reflect on how this turn of events might be a blessing in disguise. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) You seek out advice in the first part of the week. But be careful not to let counsel from others overshadow your own sense of perception. Things become clearer by the week’s end. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) The trusted colleagues you relied on earlier continue to offer support with your project. But you take more control, and by the week’s end, you should be in full command. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Rely on your practical side while exploring investment possibilities. Caution is still your watchword in these matters. Your social life takes a gratifying turn by the week’s end.

Supporters reflect on candidates’ loss Tax vote, union talk seen as issues in school election By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Community members who rallied for the four challenger candidates during the Nov. 5 school-board election are pondering what went wrong and what lies ahead. Some also are grieving — both their candidates’ defeat and the election of four board members likely to continue the reform efforts they believe are detrimental to Douglas County students. “People are incredibly depressed,” said Laura Mutton, president of the Strong Schools Coalition. Strong Schools was among several community-based groups concerned about the direction of the district, and supportive of candidates Barbra Chase, Bill Hodges, Julie

Keim and Ronda Scholting. “Our side sacrificed a lot, which is why it hurts so much,” said Susan Meek, a board member with Douglas County Parents, another community group. “Our side needs some time to mourn and recover emotionally. “But I think people made the sacrifices because it was for their children, and they’ll continue to once they’ve had some time to re-energize.” Both Meek and Mutton believes Amendment 66, a proposed statewide income tax increase to fund education, hurt their candidates’ chances, drawing conservatives to the polls in higher numbers. They also fault supporters of successful candidates Doug Benevento, Jim Geddes, Judi Reynolds and Meghann Silverthorn for pointing to the teachers’ union as an issue in the campaign. “It was a distraction, and a deception,” Mutton said. “There were people who

are concerned about the teachers leaving the district and transparency, but are so against unions that that trumped their decision-making.” “The candidates were classified as union, and that’s all people talked about,” Meek said. “We felt like that was a very successful marketing strategy on the side of the reform candidates. It’s a successful strategy that has been used in three school board elections now — and there isn’t even a recognized union in Douglas County. “Parents don’t care about the union. They care about their children having the best education possible.” The teachers’ union’s collective bargaining agreement with the district expired in 2012. Meek also pointed to the deep pockets of outside supporters like Americans for Prosperity and the Independence Institute. “We thought teachers not speaking out — the fear — was a big problem,”

Meek said. “Not having the media outside of Douglas County active in covering the race, I think was a big detriment to truly informing the public about the issues. Regardless of the outcome, Mutton believes far more community members now understand much more about the school district. “I don’t think that process will stop,” she said. “I think that will continue.” Mutton hopes the board doesn’t dismiss the nearly 50 percent of voters who supported the challenger candidates, and concerns that parents expressed throughout the campaign. “What the public did say is they don’t want unions,” Mutton said. “They didn’t necessarily give approval for everything else that’s going on. We have serious problems that need to be addressed. I would like (the board) to acknowledge that, and offer a clear plan on how they’re going to address it and fix it.”

The town, in that conceptual deal, would have shared 27.5 percent of its sales tax revenues from the Promenade for up to 25 years. It was proposed that the revenue as well as fees imposed on retail customers would have been used to pay off a bond issue to be levied on the property’s metropolitan district to fund the project’s infrastructure costs.

Despite the campaign’s divisiveness, Larsen said he sees reason for optimism. “Whether it’s painted cars or the volume of fliers and door hangers, the number of forums, this community is more awake than it’s ever been about education,” he said. “And that’s a good thing. “I think we need to build on the fact that 100,000 people participated in this election.

But that meeting was continued as negotiations continued — and at a Sept. 10 town council meeting Castle Rock Town Manager Mark Stevens said that continuing the meeting, again, instead of tabling it, could “mislead the public” that something was happening with the project. It was explained that one of the sticking points at that time was that the town had a deadline to get the bond issue on the ballot — and without an agreement with the developer, who was hard to reach lately — that deadline couldn’t be met.

SANTA

Annual event kicks off holiday shopping season By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Highlands Ranch residents Casey and Stella Oyloe may only be 6 and 4, but their Christmas lists reveal their technological maturity. “An iPhone and pixie dust,” 6-yearold Stella said as she, her sister and two cousins waited to see Santa Claus at Park Meadows mall Nov. 9. “An iPhone and a baby doll,” 4-year old Casey said. Cousin Patrick Westhoff, 7, of Commerce City, had an equally adult request. “Avalanche tickets,” he said, struggling and failing to think of anything else he wanted. Zoe Westhoff, meanwhile, has her

hopes set on a more traditional childhood-variety gift. “My Little Pony and a Princess Twilight Sparkle doll,” the 7-year-old said. Around the corner, Castle Rock 4-yearold Emma Maddaford, attired for the morning in a sparkling red sweater dress, said she wants a mermaid tale and Christmas pajamas. Her 3-year-old brother Miles explained his fondest desire in detail. “I want the Polar Express train that goes around the tree, and then we can push a button and it goes around the tree,” he said. The six were among hundreds of children waiting at the Lone Tree mall Saturday morning to greet Santa Claus and kick off the holiday shopping season. Santa, known to some as Sterling resident Larry Propp, arrived in grand style on a South Metro fire truck. As he stepped out of the cab, a small girl broke free from

the crowd of onlookers and wrapped her arms around him in a tight hug. He quickly was surrounded by excited children, who accompanied him on a walk through the mall to Santa’s Village — a section of the mall reserved for Santa and his visitors from now through Christmas. Children weren’t the only ones happy to see Santa. The day of Santa’s arrival at the mall is typically one of the busiest of the year at Justice children’s clothing store, manager Cori Wagner said. “I think this is going to be a better shopping season than last year,” she said. “I think now that the furlough is over, people will be spending money.” Lego store supervisor Courtney Morgan said a shorter shopping season meant the season started early this year. “On Halloween night, we put all our Santa continues on Page 15

Ask local vocal Chris Daniels how he’s doing three years after his bone marrow transplant, and he channels legendary soul singer James Brown: “I feel good,” Daniels told me last week during an interview before his Nov. 8 induction into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame. “Do you ever say cured? No, but I say that’s OK,” Daniels adds. Daniels was diagnosed with a fierce form of leukemia in 2010. After receiving a “perfect match” bone marrow transplant from his sister, Jane Moffett, he set his sights on getting back on stage to perform with The Kings, his band of nearly 30 years. Daniels, along with other Colorado musicians — legendary folk singer Judy Collins, the Serendipity Singers and Bob Lind — was inducted during a concert at the Paramount Theatre. “Judy was a hero to me and a lot of other musicians because she was not as operatic a singer as Joan (Baez),” Daniels said about his famous fellow inductee. “She had soul and grit in her beautiful voice and she was a great guitar and piano player. My mother’s favorite song was Judy’s version of `Both Sides Now’ by Joni Mitchell. It’s an amazing honor to go into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame with her.” In between writing music and performing, Daniels teaches music business at the University of Colorado-Denver as an assistant professor for the College of Arts and Media. “I really wanted to get back into teaching,” Daniels said about his post-transplant days. “It really refocused me. I was grading papers and working with substitute teachers when I was in the hospital. One time I was doing lectures by Skype. (The students) are 19- or 20-year-old wise apples ... I really have great hope and enthusiasm for this generation coming out.”

Event at churches helps artisans around world By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com World Gift Markets have grown, according to committee member Shelly DeChantal, a metro-area fiber artist who has recently moved to Littleton. Fair Trade, handmade gifts from artisans living around the world — in Laos, Africa, Bolivia and more will be available, as well as items crafted at local nonprofit workshops, such as A Little Something, the Gathering Place and Earthlinks. More than 40 nonprofit and Fair Trade groups will participate. First Universalist Church (northeast corner) and First Plymouth Congregational Church (southwest corner), both at the intersection of East Hampden Avenue and South Colorado Boulevard, have joined together this year to host the World Gift Markets on Nov. 23 (9 a.m. to 4 p.m.) and Nov. 24 (9 a.m. to 2 p.m.), with an opening reception at First Universalist only from 5 to 8 p.m. Nov. 22. The market encourages purposeful giv-

ing by supporting artisans in developing countries through Fair Trade businesses such as Silks of Laos, Team Africa and Fair Trade Republica, which bring traditional crafts to the markets. Working with indigenous craftspeople in areas of extreme poverty, they help preserve traditions and provide fair wages and a healthy workplace. All products are made by individual artisans working in small groups or cooperatives. Shoppers can find hand-woven silk scarves from Laos, recycled Sari table runners and pillows, handmade paper journals from India, hand-knitted alpaca hats and gloves from Bolivia, Ugandan coffee and local honey from Earthlinks’ Peace Garden, for example. Earthlinks, a Denver nonprofit started 16 years ago, has grown from a day shelter to a full-fledged craft enterprise that offers productive work to homeless people. It teaches job skills and garden work, which allows for connection with the earth, DeChantal writes. In addition to honey, the Peace Garden’s bees produce beeswax for Natural Spa products. And bees pollinate flowers, gourds and herbs, which result in greeting cards, vases, candles, birdhouses, jewelry, lotions and catnip toys for Fluffy.

‘Cross Currents’ comes to gallery Show of native work gets underway Nov. 22 By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “The wide range of expression and media found in the exhibition demonstrates the futility of attempting to confine artists of native descent to one category,” said Cecily Cullen, creative director for the Center for Visual Art. “The artists of `Cross Currents’ represent the spirit of innovation by blending elements found in traditional Native American art with meaning and strategies born of 21st-century art making, adding unique voices to the visual language of today.” CVA, Metropolitan State University’s very

interesting, easily accessed gallery at 965 Santa Fe Drive in Denver’s Arts District, offers free admission and a series of engaging exhibits. “Cross Currents: Native American Forces in Contemporary Art” runs Nov. 22 through Feb. 8, featuring art by Cannupahanska, Nicholas Galanin, Frank Buffalo Hyde, Merritt Johnson, Sarah Ortegon, Wendy Red Star, Sarah Sense, Marie Watt and Will Wilson. Some of the artists will be present for an opening reception and artist’s panel on Nov. 22 from 6 to 8 p.m. These artists from across the nation have different indigenous backgrounds and do not adhere to traditional stereotypes. What they do have in common is an exploration of identity as they move between worlds, rejecting mass media’s appropriation of traditional symbols.

‘Russian Holiday’ set for Lone Tree By Sonya Ellingboe

The 53-year-old, 85-member Denver Concert Band, led by Jacinda Bouton, has a family treat planned for its “Russian Holiday” concert at 2 p.m. Nov. 24 at Lone Tree Arts Center. Santa and Mrs. Claus will be there to hand out candy canes to children. The joyous music will also be a treat, featuring Russian and American works. Although Russians were forbidden to celebrate religious holidays for 75 years after the Communist Revolution, they retained a holiday spirit, one learns with a bit of online research. They focused on New Year’s trees and celebrations. However, before and again in the present, St. Nicholas is popular and the Santa who appears on Nov. 24 is cast in his image — the 11th-century Bishop of Myrna in red robes. St. Nicholas performed miracles

Christmas stuff up,” she said. “So I think people this year are more apt to get in the spirit earlier.” Park Meadows traditionally draws high traffic — with parking lots often filled to capacity — during the holiday season, but manager Pamela Schenck-Kelly isn’t sure this season will set records. “It’s difficult when you have big numbers to grow by big numbers,” she said. “The retail industry has plateaued at this

and the gift-giving was handled by Old Babouschka, who brought presents to kids as she looked for the Christ Child. Russian Christmas is celebrated on Jan. 7, preceded by a special dinner and church service on Christmas Eve. Festive music is important and the band’s program begins with Rimsky Korsakov’s “Procession of the Nobles,” followed by “Alleluia” by Samuel Hazo and “Midnight Sleighride,” originally by Prokofiev. Peter Tchaikovsky’s “Nutcracker Suite” is beloved worldwide and it will be followed by “Christmas Sing-A-Long” by James Ployhar. Following intermission, Prokofiev’s “March, Op. 99” and the Carpenters’ “Merry Christmas Darling” will be followed by Larry MacTaggart’s arrangement of “Laughing All the Way.” Alfred Reed’s “Russian Christmas Music” and Leroy Anderson’s ever-popular “Sleigh Ride” wrap up this festive program.

point.” Employees are difficult to find this year, indicating a drop in unemployment, Schenck-Kelly said. “The other factor is I think the community has become very stabilized,” she said. “We have a very educated consumer. I think they’re more savvy than typical here because of this demographic, but it’s also due to technology. They know real value as opposed to inflated value. They’re more zeroed in on what they want.” Along with malls and retailers nationwide, some Park Meadows stores will open Thanksgiving night, with others starting Black Friday at midnight and the remainder between then and 8 a.m.

Jaguars soccer team takes runner-up spot Rock Canyon loses 1-0 in 5A finals to Pine Creek By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com The decision in a tough battle for the Nov. 9 Class 5A state soccer championship game came with 3:22 left in the second overtime period, when a quirky goal by Jay Morales gave Pine Creek a 1-0 win over Rock Canyon. “It was a great game all around but, of course, the ending wasn’t what we wanted to see,” Jaguars coach Sean Henning said after the Nov. 9 finals. “We played our game like we have done all year and we played them even until they scored that quirky goal. Our defense was outstanding as it has been all year. Offensively, we had some chances but we didn’t get the ball in the net. I am proud of our kids. They gave it everything they had. I wish it would have come out differently for them.” Rock Canyon had bested Arapahoe, Heritage and Denver East to get into the finals at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. Pine Creek bested Chatfield, Grandview and Boulder to make up the other half of the state championship game. The stadium was rocking as the teams took the field. The Eagles fans were wearing back and waving scarves announcing they supported Pine Creek. Not far away the white-clad Rock Canyon fans also waved hand-made signs and school-name scarves as they cheered for the Jaguars. The game was a battle from the opening whistle. Officials called few fouls despite the fact there were frequent collisions and often one or more players from each team was on the ground. But in almost every case, the players got up and rejoined the action.

Rock Canyon’s Jack Galyon battled for the ball with a Pine Creek defender during the Nov. 9 Class 5A state soccer championship game. The Jaguar attack put a shot on goal but didn’t score. The scoreless game ended with a Pine Creek goal with 3:22 left in the second overtime. Photo by Tom Munds Each team battled for every loose ball. The team that took possession of the ball then pressed the attack so the fast-paced action moved up and down the field. Attacks varied from passes from teammate to teammate to move in close to the goal to long passes to try to find a teammate near the end line who could get off a shot. However, at each end of the field, the goalkeepers and the defenders repeatedly turned aside the attacks, limiting the opportunities to get a possible scoring shot at the net. The final statistics showed Rock Canyon had 10 shots on goal while Pine

Creek had nine. The defensive battle kept the game scoreless through 80 minutes of regulation play. But rules say the game can’t end in a tie so, after a five-minute break, the game went into overtime in a golden-goal format which means the first overtime goal wins. The fast-paced battle resumed but the scoreless tie remained after the first 15-minute overtime period. There was another brief break before the second 15-minute overtime period began and the game ended with 3:22 when Morales kicked the ball and it went into the

net for the golden goal. Rock Canyon’s emotion was evident as players dropped in pace and there were some tears as the game marked the end of the prep soccer career for 17 seniors. However, they regained their composure, shook hands with the Pine Creek players and senior Ben Bartlett accepted the state second-place trophy. In keeping with their tradition, the players took the trophy to where their fans were seated. The fans applauded and many reached over the wall to shake hands and even give a hug to players.

Creek, Valor advance in football playoffs Huskies trail Fairview in game at Boulder By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Cherry Creek abandoned its usual reliance on running the football, as the Bruins employed a balanced offensive scheme and produced a 49-14 second-round Class 5A playoff victory Nov. 8 over Overland in a second round Class 5A state playoff game. Quarterback Cameron Brucker completed 18 of 26 passes for 302 yards and four touchdowns as the Bruins defeated the Trail Blazers for the second time this season. Mikey McCauley caught six of Brucker’s passes for 95 yards and two touchdowns. Creek still ran the ball as Milo Hall rushed for 145 yards on 17 carries and scored one touchdown. Nathan Starks gained 116 yards on 11 totes and scored a pair of TDS for the Bruins who finished with 583 yards of total offense. Overland was held to 32 yards rushing by the Bruins defense. Cherry Creek (10-1) moves into a quarterfinal game against Centennial League rival Cherokee Trail (9-2). The game is set for 7 p.m. Nov. 15 at the Stutler Bowl. The Cougars, last year’s Class 5A state runners-up, lost a league game to Cherry Creek Oct. 4. Cherokee Trail missed an extra point with 29.3 seconds remaining and dropped a 28-27 decision to the Bruins in a game played at Legacy Stadium. In other second-round Class 5A games played Nov. 8, defending state champion Valor Christian jumped to a 42-3 halftime

lead and cruised to a 49-17 triumph over Ralston Valley as the Eagles stretched their state playoff winning streak to 15 games. Valor (10-1) will continue its quest for a fifth consecutive state title in a Nov. 15 quarterback game against Columbine (101). The 7 p.m. game will be played at Valor Stadium. Eagles quarterback A.J. Cecil completed 19 of 23 passes for 278 yards and four touchdowns. Christian McCaffrey rushed for 121 yards and two scores and caught six passes for 110 yards and a pair of TDs. McCaffrey, committed to play for Stanford, has scored 32 touchdowns this season After opening the season 1-1 against two formidable out-of-state opponents, Valor has scored 461 points in the past nine games for an average of 51.2 points a game. ThunderRidge (10-1), which lost to Valor in last season’s semifinals, romped to a 5635 win over Doherty at Shea Stadium. The Grizzlies will play Grandview (7-4) in a Nov. 16 quarterfinal game at Legacy Stadium starting at 1 p.m. ThunderRidge defeated the Wolves, 21-7, in a Sept. 13 nonleague game. Quarterback Brody Westmoreland accounted for seven of the Grizzlies eight touchdowns against Doherty. The 6-foot senior who going to San Diego State to play baseball rushed for 152 yards and four touchdowns and threw three scoring passes. Undefeated and top-seeded Fairview outscored Douglas County 21-0 in the second half enroute to a 45-17 win over the Huskies in a game played a Boulder’s Recht Field. Douglas County trailed only 21-17 near

On its first possession of the second half, Douglas County drove to the Fairview 6-yard line but failed to convert on fourth down. Standout Douglas County back Trey Smith was held to 87 yards rushing but he

did haul in four passes for 81 yards and a touchdown. Lutheran gave No. 2-seed Palisade all it could handle before dropping a 35-25 decision in a Class 3A first round road playoff game Nov. 9. The Lions (8-3) trailed only 28-25 but Palisade scored with two minutes remaining to seal the victory.

Grandview takes state 5A volleyball championship Arapahoe falls one win shy of top trophy By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Arapahoe concluded its best girls volleyball season in school history but came up a win shy of winning the state championship. Grandview swept the Warriors 25-22, 25-12, 25-17 to win the Class 5A championship Nov. 9 in the finale at the Denver Coliseum. It was the ninth appearance in a state championship match in the past 11 seasons for Grandview and the Wolves’ fourth state title. It was only the Warriors’ second trip ever to the state tournament. “This was the best season we’ve ever had in Arapahoe history,” said Warriors coach Cara Syers. “We had one state berth prior to this and we lost in pool play. So this is our first year ever of getting to the state championship. Our three losses this season were to Grandview. They were a clear No. 1 it’s clear to say.” All four semifinal teams were from the Centennial League as Arapahoe defeated Eaglecrest 25-10, 25-21, 23-25, 25-20 to advance into the finals. Grandview downed Cherry Creek 11-25, 29-27, 25-23, 25-18. “We knew our schedule prepared us well,” added Syers. “We knew what we had to face against Grandview and we did for the most part. It was like the perfect storm. Everything went their way, every net serve and every free ball. It went their way for sure.” Arapahoe, coming off a short rest after its semifinal match, jumped ahead 8-4 in the first set but failed to come up with the key points after the Wolves tied the set at 20-all. “We didn’t get it (first set) and they just rolled,” admitted Syers. The second and third sets were not close as the top-seeded Wolves (27-2) took charge.

Putnicki’s spike scored a point for the Sabercats but they lost the match to Grandview. Photo by Tom Munds “I couldn’t be more proud of our girls for their heart and determination they showed all season,” said Syers. “It was a wonderful season just a little short of where we wanted but really you don’t focus on that. You focus on this season as a journey. Second-seeded Arapahoe ended the season with a 25-3 record. Cherry Creek (22-6) appeared to have Grandview on the ropes in the semifinal, winning the first set 25-11 and having a chance to capture the second before but lost 29-27. The Wolves prevailed in the final two sets, 25-23 and 25-18.

“There was a call at the end (of the second set) whether we hit the ball or not,” recalled Bruins coach Sally Moos. “They gave them the point and kind of gave them the momentum. We didn’t put enough balls away. They have two big outside hitters and they put a few more balls away. “But I’m really proud of our kids. That was the third time we played them. We knew each other. We did some good things, we just didn’t have enough to win the match.” Ponderosa (16-11), which finished second in the Class 5A Continental League,

lost in the Class 4A semifinals to Air Academy. The Kadets won 26-24, 25-20 and 2515. “It was tremendous to be here and we were more that excited,” said Ponderosa senior Merry Hammack. “We overcame so many obstacles but we just got better. I feel bad for the loss and the end of our season but this has been a family and we are so grateful for all that supported us.” Ponderosa wound up with a 16-11 record. Two-time defending Class 2A state champions Lutheran made it to the state championship match but the Lions were swept by undefeated and top-seeded Resurrection Christian 25-18, 25-19 and 25-13. “We were very pleased,” said coach Alicia Oates whose second-seeded Lions finished 25-3. “Resurrection was a very solid team. They have a lot of offensive power so it was hard to slow any one of them down because they would come back with something else. They were really good. But even getting into that game was a huge accomplished for these girls. “A lot of people, even ourselves at times, underestimated what we were capable of but they always kept working hard and kept focused on what they needed to do to be successful. They really surprised a lot of people and had a lot of fun doing it. Being in the state tournament is exciting and being in that Parade of Champions is a memory we will have for a lifetime.” Continental League champion Mountain Vista lost 3-1 to Cherry Creek in the deciding game in Pool 4 while Castle View dropped both its matches in Pool 1 in the Class 5A opening matches. Valor Christian lost both its matches in Class 4A, Pool 3 play. Chaparral coach T.R. Ellis was given the Pioneer Award during a special awards ceremony. Ellis has been the head coach at Chaparral for 16 seasons and won state titles in 2010 and 2011. She also had Colorado coaching stints at Douglas County for seven seasons and for eight years at Olathe.

Weaver enjoys run of success Mountain Vista senior meets most of his goals By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Connor Weaver is always being questioned. People want to know why he keeps on running. “That’s the question everybody asks,” explained Weaver. “Why run? You almost have to be a different human being to get joy out of it. I like how in running you can always progress and get better. “I like being in shape, I like competing and I like being outdoors. I played almost every single sport coming into high school.

I definitely wasn’t planning on being a cross country, track runner. I was going to play lacrosse, football, basketball but I ended up falling in love with running because it was so challenging. I was naturally pretty good at it and I do enjoy it.” Weaver, a senior at Mountain Vista, turned out to be a darn good runner and has been tabbed Colorado Community Media’s South Metro Boys Cross Country Runner of the Year. “I met most of my goals,” said Weaver. “I had a goal that I wanted to win state but then Cerake (Geberidane) obviously had a real good year. He is probably one of the best runners in the nation so it’s not too bad to be behind him. It’s not too big of a disappointment anyway.”

Denver East’s Geberidane won the state cross country meet in record time of 15:48.2. Weaver finished third in 16:34.5 but led the Golden Eagles to their second straight boys team championship. Weaver was the Continental League champion and ran second to Pine Creek’s Zachary Alhamra in the regional meet. Alhamra was second behind Geberidane at the state meet. “I improved a ton especially from last year,” Weaver said. “From my freshman year it’s just been leaps and bounds in improvement. I was injured freshman, sophomore and junior years. Small little things that kept my running back and I had big injuries too. This year I was completely injury free.”

Senior Emily Wolff was captain of the Arapahoe girls cross country team and admits it was a learning experience. “Being the captain for the team helped me learn a lot about leadership and running for the team and not just for yourself,” said Wolff. “When you are going through the most painful part of the race you have to think about how each stride you take and each person you pass is not just for yourself but for the team.” Wolff finished ninth in the state meet and made enough strides to be named Colorado Community Media’s South Metro Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year.

“I was excited to learn that I got the award,” proclaimed Wolff, who ran 10th in the 2012 state cross country championships. “I didn’t meet my PR from last season (18:05) but I met most of the goals I had for the season. I was excited that I finished better than I did last year. “You always want to finish as high as you can and close to the top but I was still excited I improved.” Wolff was crowned the regional champion with a time of 18:46 and ran a 19:32.7 at the state meet to better last fall’s state meet finish. “I love cross country,” said Wolff. “It’s kind of up to you what you are going to put into cross country and what you are going to get out. It’s all about the strength you have and not just the physical strength but the mental aspect. You just learn from it like life lessons, it’s much bigger than yourself, much bigger than the sport.”

PICKING THE ATHLETES OF THE YEAR CHOOSING COLORADO Community Media’s South Metro Athletes of the Year was a combined effort. Area coaches were asked for their thoughts, and their input was weighed heavily when CCM’s sports staff made the final selection for each sport. ELIGIBLE ATHLETES come from all the high schools in Douglas County, the high schools in the Littleton Public Schools District and from Cherry Creek High School.

NEWS IN A HURRY Santa’s Sharing starts

“I can say that Dr. Thompson is more than just a school psychologist,” said Mike Loitz, Rocky Heights’ principal. “He is a vital member of the RHMS family.” Thompson has been the traumatic brain injury coordinator for the Douglas County School District for nine years, and is a member of the Colorado Traumatic Brain Injury Network steering committee, working with agencies and groups that serve families impacted by brain injuries.

One way to help a struggling family during the holidays is the Santa’s Sharing program through the Douglas/Elbert Task Force, according to a task force newsletter. There are opportunities to sponsor a family and donate new toys to the task force’s toy chest. For more information on this program go to www.detaskforce.org.

School psychologist honored

Dr. Peter Thompson, school psychologist at Rocky Heights Middle School and the district’s lead school psychologist, recently was named Colorado’s school psychologist of the year by the Colorado Society of School Psychologists.

Police presenting plan

Castle Rock residents and business owners are encouraged to provide input when Castle Rock Police Department’s command staff presents a draft five-year plan at an

open house from 4 to 6 p.m. Nov. 12 at Philip S. Miller Library, 100 S. Wilcox St. “To fulfill our responsibility and commitment to our community, this plan will take us to the next level in ensuring Castle Rock remains a safe place to live, work and raise a family,” said Castle Rock Police Jack Cauley recently. The draft plan includes several priorities — crime, traffic safety, employees, preparing for future growth, community policing and partnerships, and technology and equipment. And officers would set a variety of goals and define ways to measure their success. The entire plan is available for review at CRgov.com/PDplan.

You have the right to request a trial by jury at the adjudicatory stage of this petition. You also have the right to legal representation at every stage of the proceedings by counsel of your own choosing, or if you are without sufficient financial means and meet the indigency guidelines established by the Colorado Supreme Court, appointment of counsel by the Court at state expense. Termination of your parent-child legal relationship to free your children for adoption is a possible remedy in this proceeding. If that remedy is pursued, you are entitled to a hearing before a Judge. You also have the right, if you are indigent, to have the Court appoint, at no expense to you, one expert witness of your own choosing at any hearing on the termination of your parent-child relationship. If you are a minor, you have the right to the appointment of a Guardian ad litem to represent your best interests. You have the right to have this matter heard by a district court judge rather than by the magistrate. You may waive that right, and in doing so, you will be bound by the findings and recommendations of the magistrate, subject to review as provided by section 19-1-108(5.5), C.R.S. 2013, and subsequently, to the right of appeal as provided by Colorado Appellate Rule 3.4. Rule 4.2 of the Colorado Rules of Juvenile Procedure provides for the following advisement about dependency and neglect cases: (a) At the first appearance before the court, the respondent(s) shall be fully advised by the court as to all rights and the possible consequences of a finding that a child is dependent or neglected. The court shall make certain that the respondent(s) understand the following: (1) The nature of the allegations contained in the petition; (2) As a party to the proceeding, the right to counsel; (3) That if the respondent(s) is a parent, guardian, or legal custodian, and is indigent, the respondent may be assigned counsel as provided by law. (4) The right to a trial by jury; (5) That any admission to the petition must be voluntary; (6) The general dispositional alternatives available to the court if the petition is sustained, as set forth in Section 19-3-508, C.R.S.; (7) That termination of the parent-child legal relationship is a possible remedy which is available if the petition is sustained; (8) That if a motion to terminate the parent-child legal relationship is filed, the court will set a separate hearing at which the allegations of the motion must be proven by clear and convincing evidence; (9) That termination of the parent-child legal relationship means that the subject child would be available for adoption; (10) That any party has the right to appeal any final decision made by the court; and (11) That if the petition is admitted, the court is not bound by any promises or representations made by anyone about dispositional alternatives selected by the court. (b) The respondent(s), after being advised, shall admit or deny the allegations of the petition. (c) If a respondent(s) admits the allegations in the petition, the court may accept the admission after making the following finding: (1) That the respondent(s) understand his or her rights, the allegations contained in the petition, and the effect of the admission; (2) That the admission is voluntary. (d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Rule to the contrary, the court may advise a non-appearing respondent(s) pursuant to this Rule in writing and may accept a written admission to the petition if the respondent has affirmed under oath that the respondent(s) understands the advisement and the consequences of the admission, and if, based upon such sworn statement, the court is able to make the findings set forth in part (c) of this Rule. This summons is being initiated by the Douglas County Department of Human Services through its counsel.

Without public notices, the government wouldn’t have to say anything else.

Public notices are a community’s window into the government. From zoning regulations to local budgets, governments have used local newspapers to inform citizens of its actions as an essential part of your right to know. You know where to look, when to look and what to look for to be involved as a citizen. Local newspapers provide you with the information you need to get involved.

The newly designed pocket map for South Suburban trails includes everything you need to know to make your use of our park trail system a pleasure.

You asked–we answered! The South Suburban Park Foundation working with Chamber Investors and community members recently revised their website to provide on-line south metro community trail maps. Available now at www.sspf.org, trail visitors can download a new, or favorite, trail route from one of the dozens within the stellar trail and greenway system right in our neighborhood. Whether you’re at home planning your next visit or on the trail deciding where to explore, you can immediately pull up a current map on your computer or mobile device. Trail information provided includes mile-

age, elevation and a general overview of trail features and amenities. The South Suburban Parks Foundation also has included information about user safety and surrounding habitat and environmental features. Maps are available both digitally as well as a pocket-sized printed version. Click www.sspf.org for trail updates, maps (downloadable or complimentary copy), community happenings, and to sign up to receive e-mail snippets. We would like to thank the South Metro Chamber and the community members who shared their ideas to implement this new feature!

Metro State and Colorado Heights Universities Partner to improve student success Chamber Investors Metropolitan State University of Denver (MSU Denver) and Colorado Heights University (CHU) have partnered to authorize general studies and business core transfer credits toward a Bachelor of Science degree in one of five business disciplines: accounting, computer information systems, finance, management and marketing. “This partnership focuses on removing perceived barriers to education, while encouraging greater diversity of ideas and backgrounds in our programs,” says Ann Murphy, dean of the MSU Denver School of Business. “Both universities feel that, through this arrangement, we can attract new students that may not otherwise consider either institution individually.” Fifteen courses, equating to more than three semesters of classes, now are preauthorized for transfer to MSU Denver with a grade of C or higher. CHU students must meet all of MSU Denver’s standard admission and application requirements.

“Whether our students come from the local neighborhoods or from countries overseas, students can receive individualized support at CHU at the start, to assist them in getting acclimated to the college experience, and then move on to a much larger academic offering at MSU Denver,” says Doug Bjerkaas, CHU chief operating officer, adding that this partnership with MSU Denver is the first of its kind and it gives us the opportunity to provide additional options to students we strive to serve. MSU Denver and CHU have advisers to help students get credits transferred. CHU’s next program cycle starts Oct. 28 and MSU Denver’s application deadline for the spring semester is Nov. 18. Another benefit to the partnership allows students to live in student housing on the CHU campus at an affordable student rate, ranging from $180 to $400 a month. CHU’s dorms are just 1.5 miles from the Englewood light-rail station, providing easy access to downtown Denver and

Chamber Marketing and Visibility Consultant Brian Bartony who oversees both educational institutions’ Chamber investment strategies is excited at this collaboration. “ Metropolitan State Univesity is leading Colorado by bringing diverse backgrounds together for higher education. Colorado Heights University has students from 49 countries predominately with English as a second language. Through this collaboration effort students can now get the best of both worlds. We heartily applaud partnerships such as this which will continue to strengthen Colorado’s educational system.” An official signing ceremony to launch the partnership took place on Oct. 21 at the main administration building on the CHU campus.
