Exotic cars take over ACC By Kyle Harding kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com More than 450 cars took over the lawn of Arapahoe Community College on June 5 for the 33rd annual Colorado Concours d’Elegance & Exotic Sports Car Show. Cars at the show included some of the rarest in the world and ranged from a 1925 Rolls Royce owned by Herb Goede up to brand new McLaren supercars. Stim Kennedy and Tom Scott of the Rocky Mountain Region Porsche Club of America began the event in Denver in 1983. Proceeds from it benefit Ability Connection Colorado, formerly Cerebral Palsy of Colorado. One very rare car at the show was Lewis Kling’s 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL, Cars continues on Page 11
South Metro Fire Rescue is the first fire district in Arapahoe and Douglas counties to activate two smartphone applications that firefighters hope will improve sudden cardiac arrest survival rates by alerting CPR-trained professionals and pinpointing medical equipment in the community. Once 911 is called for a patient experiencing sudden cardiac arrest in a public place, citizens who install the PulsePoint app on their smartphones will be alerted if they are within 400 meters of the patient.

HELLO
... My Name Is
A glimpse of the people in our community
ASHLEY SEASTONE Hope House GED program coordinator About me I have always loved school and now, as an educator, I can express that love to others. I’m a Colorado native and I wouldn’t have it any other way. My sister and I were born and raised in Centennial, and now we are all still pretty close. My parents still live in Centennial, and my sister and her husband live in downtown Denver near me. Growing up I was pretty active and loved to play soccer, dance and run track and field. I was into all the sports in high school, and after graduation, it was no surprise what I decided to study — biomedical science and health and exercise. I obtained my bachelor’s degree along with a master’s in public health from Colorado State University
in Fort Collins. Finding my path While studying for my master’s I learned I had a passion in the education field, and a strong desire to help people overcome health disparities. I took a deeper look at the system and learned a lot of health aid doesn’t end up where it’s meant to go, and so when it came time to find a job a few things were a must for me. I wanted a job at a faith-based, transparent organization that has visible benefits for its clients. Hope House of Colorado was the perfect fit. In 2014, following graduation, I came across a GED coordinator job with Hope House while networking with Lisa Steven, Hope House’s executive director. Over coffee, we talked about my goals and aspirations for my career and she said, “You know, I might have a job for you.” A few weeks later I became the Hope House’s GED program coordinator and it’s been amazing. What I do Every day I work to organize tutors, GED practice tests, grocery shop, transport, counsel and lift up our girls. Our average participant in the program is a ninth-grader, and it’s hard. Getting your GED isn’t a quick fix to not receiv-
ing your diploma — it takes months of hard work. We like to have our students work one-on-one with tutors in threehour class sessions eight times a week. This really helps them learn the material, ask questions in a safe environment and build relationships with tutors. Our goal is to not only help them graduate, but to help them realize their potential and abilities to go beyond that degree and seek their dreams. And this year, we’ve had 17 girls graduate and we anticipate we’ll have more than 20 graduate by the end of this year. In my free time Outside of work, I like to tutor through the Whiz Kids Tutoring. Once a week I play with elementary and middle school students and help them with reading and math assignments. When not tutoring or helping teen mothers obtain their degrees, I like to be outside. I love all the things Colorado has to offer — hiking, fishing and camping. I also love to travel and am looking forward to an Alaska trip this June. For me, life is education, and I hope to continue to pursue that lifelong passion, which is learning.

REPUBLICAN PRIMARY
Candidates for state House District 38 Q&A with Susan Beckman
F
ormer Arapahoe County Commissioner Susan Beckman is running for state House District 38. She served on Littleton City Council from 1999 to 2001 before representing District 1 of Arapahoe County from 2001-13. Beckman, 56, graduated from Colorado State University-Pueblo with a degree in Beckman communications and earned a certificate in state and local government from the Harvard Kennedy School of Executive Education. Prior to entering the election, she stepped down from her position as director of administrative solutions for the state Department of Human Services. Beckman’s husband, Bruce, is the mayor of Littleton. Why are you seeking this position? To protect the quality of life that we have here in Colorado, in Arapahoe County and most importantly in House District 38. I am concerned about our personal freedoms, about the over-regulation of our energy economy, and an ever-growing state budget that focuses on increasing entitlement benefits instead of essential services, education and transportation. I am running to bring fiscal accountability, appropriate prioritization, and transparency to the state’s budgeting process.
What makes you the best person for the job? I have a wide range of experience, a proven track record of being accountable to the community, of being frugal with taxpayer’s money, and of making things happen that others said could not be done. I want to take to the state Legislature the lessons that I learned about stewardship of your tax dollars and responsive government service while serving as an Arapahoe County commissioner. Our Legislature must find new ways to streamline and deliver essential services without increasing taxes or sacrificing quality. I will continue my track record of fiscal responsibility, innovative thinking and tireless work ethic to accomplish these goals. This strong leadership has benefited the region by improving transportation, encouraging economic development, streamlining government and keeping our property rates taxes low. What will your top two priorities be, if elected? As your next House District 38 representative, I will focus on regulatory reform and transportation infrastructure. I will fight to stop unreasonable regulations for small business, to support the jobs and businesses that the energy sector brings to Colorado, and to maintain strong local control in schools and municipalities. I will focus on those issues regarding transportation infrastructure. It is wrong that a $27 billion state budget was adopted this year with less than $200 million for road construction projects. We cannot sit by and watch our transportation infrastructure deteriorate.
Q&A with Mike Williams
M
What makes you the best person for the job? I understand mission accomplishment. I completed three deployments and earned two Sea Service ribbons in less than three years. I know how to listen to and understand community needs, and then execute and deliver real results. Additionally, I work full time in the private sector — I’m not a bureaucrat. I’m intimately aware of the issues affecting our community because I live and work here; not because I’ve spent two decades in politics. I am running to do a job; I am not running for a job. I have a wonderful relationship with so many of our communities’ neighborhoods — and I promise to be a representative for all voices in District 38.
ike Williams, 29, is running for his first elected office in the state House District 38 race. The Arapahoe High School graduate currently lives in Centennial but will move into a new home in Littleton in September. Williams graduated from Colorado State University with a degree in political science before going Williams on to serve in the Navy as a surface warfare officer. He is currently a lieutenant in the Navy Reserve and works for Galloway & Company, an architecture, engineering and planning firm in Greenwood Village, and is scheduled to graduate in the fall from University of Colorado-Denver with master’s degrees in urban and regional planning and public administration.
What will your top two priorities be, if elected? Repairing Colorado’s roads, bridges, and transportation infrastructure, and construction defects reform, are top priorities for Colorado and District 38. I will work with legislators to pass effective legislation that provides funding to repair our infrastructure without fleecing taxpayers. I support Republicans efforts to issue Transportation Revenue Anticipation Notes to fix our roads. Additionally, for two years now, Democrats have voted against attainable housing options for all generations. I will support and vote in favor of legislation that will bring more housing options to all generations — giving Millennials an opportunity to build equity and our aging population the prospect to downsize.
Why are you seeking this position? The system is in desperate need of fresh faces and new ideas. For much too long, the same politicians have been in elected office, moving from position to position. Politics is only getting more partisan and less is getting accomplished. I will bring a conservative voice to the Capitol and provide the charisma and fortitude necessary to keep government small and accountable to the people. I love this community and promise to be its voice and proud representative.

5 things to know about rattlesnakes
By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com
Summer is in full swing, which means most Coloradans are spending more time outdoors. Whether it’s a hike through Chatfield State Park, a bike ride along the High Line Canal, or a barbecue out back, wildlife encounters are inevitable. And snakes enjoy the warm sunshine as much as humans do. Laura Lacerte, a Highlands Ranch Metro District park ranger, teaches Nature EdVentures classes on the habitat, environment and benefits of snakes. Although most are harmless, the rattlesnake is venomous and should be left alone. Below are five things to know about snakes this season. They tend to avoid human contact. Most of Colorado’s snakes are innocuous, including backyard dwellers like the common garter snake and bullsnake. But the prairie rattlesnake — characterized by green-and-brown coloring, key-hole shaped pupils, a triangular-shaped head and a rattle at the end of the tail — is venomous. The reptile tends to avoid humans and humans should return the favor. “If you see a rattlesnake, give it plenty of space,” said Lacerte. “Do not try to move it.”

They can be found in almost all of Colorado’s ecosystems. During winter months, rattle snakes hibernate in outdoor dens, including rodent holes and rock piles. Rattlesnakes are active from spring to fall. Most sightings happen on summer mornings and evenings between temperatures of 50 to 80 degrees, Lacerte said. They spend most of their time basking in the sun on pavements or trails. Be aware of surroundings, especially on hiking trails. Know what wildlife inhabits the trail, stay on the trail and watch wildlife “respectfully from a distance,” said Lacerte.
There are state laws on the treatment of snakes. In Colorado, rattlesnakes may be legally killed if they pose a threat, according to Colorado Parks and Wildlife. All other snakes are classified as non-game wildlife, which includes more than 750 species that cannot be hunted, fished or trapped. Native cutthroat trout, bats, boreal toads, lynx, and blackfooted ferrets are non-game species. They are all protected by state law.
Warning signs. Rattle snakes will sound their tails as a warning sign. If an onlooker gets too close, they may elevate into an “S” shape. “A snake in this position is highly agitated and should absolutely not be approached,” according to a Colorado Parks and Wildlife report. Baby rattlesnakes are more dangerous because they do not know how to use their rattler and will strike first if disturbed. Adult snakes will bite as a last resort. If bitten, the victim should seek immediate medical treatment and try to remain as calm and still as possible, Lacerte said. Victims should not cover the wound with any type of bandage or suck the venom. Although rattlesnake bites are painful, they usually aren’t fatal for healthy adults, Colorado Parks and Wildlife says.
Treat Veins NO Downtime NO Stockings
Bike to Work Day gets people to try commuting alternative By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com For her daily commute, Katy Burley either walks or takes RTD’s Call-n-Ride to the nearest Light Rail Station at Belleview and I-25. Then she takes the train to downtown Denver. “If you try it,” she said, “you might like it and make it a new habit.” The sooner Denver starts acting like a big city — which means using more multi-modal transportation — the better off it will be, said Burley, a Greenwood Village resident and public relations coordinator for Denver Regional Council of Governments. And that’s the hope behind Bike to Work Day — to encourage commuters to explore other ways of getting around. Way to Go, a transportation program of Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG), coordinates the annual event to promote healthy lifestyle choices. National Bike Month is May but because of Colorado’s iffy spring weather, the occasion falls on the third Wednesday of June — that’s June 22 this year. DRCOG is a group of elected officials from 56 agencies that address regional issues and plan for the future. The council oversees several counties along the Front Range, including Arapahoe and Douglas. DRCOG’s three areas of focus are aging,
regional planning and transportation. Last year, Bike to Work Day had 32,800 riders with an average bike ride of about nine miles, according to a DRCOG report. The event reduced daily carbon dioxide emissions by a quarter of 1 million pounds. Bike to Work Day isn’t a bike race — it’s a bike ride and a communal celebration. Stations will be set up across Denver for riders to rejuvenate, Lauren socialize and share Memarian, their success. Last year, there were 243 of Denver, stations, including designed this year’s breakfast stations in the morning, snack Bike to and water stations Work Day in the afternoon, poster. and craft-beer staShe rides tions at the end the an orange day. bike named “It’s a way of saying, ‘You biked Clemso many miles so entine. Courtesy of cheers to you,’” JR Goodwin Burley said. Participants can register for free online at www. biketoworkday.us until June 22. The user-friendly website will map out a bike route from starting to ending point. It will also identify nearby stations. Registered participants are automatically entered to win prizes, including bike gear, sports packages and Red Rocks tickets. Participants can enter an additional sweepstakes for a cycling vacation for two along Italy’s Amalfi Coast. Bike to Work Day puts a fun spin on behavior modification, Burley said. “If commuters just try it,” she said, Call Today • 303-945-2080 “they are more likely to stick with it.”
Eliminate potential dens. Simple adjustments to a property can prevent snake encounters. Homeowners should keep firewood covered in a box to eliminate dwelling spaces, says Colorado Parks and Wildlife. They should also avoid rows of large rocks in open, sunny areas, and trim vegetation where snakes could potentially hide. Rodents are a major food source for snakes. Homeowners should reduce the rodent population indoors and outdoors, and seal all entrances to crawl spaces and basements.

While silence bathed the classrooms and halls at Colorado’s Finest High School of Choice, the hum of dryers and the click of scissors filled the air in the cosmetology academy area. “The cosmetology course is a twoyear program. We have 31 students in their first year of training and 24 in the second year of training,” said Kim Kersen, one of the course instructors. “The students attend class four hours a day during the school year and are here with us for eight hours a day during June.” Instructor Michelle Hickey said the Englewood school works with Arapahoe Community College, so students completing the course receive 60 hours of college credit. The training also prepares students to take and pass the state licensing examination. “We opened in 2014 and taught esthetics, which is skin care,” she said. “Sixteen students graduated from that course. All but two of those students earned their license and are still working in the industry.” The students each have a position that resembles a station at a hair salon. Most students practice their skills on the hair attached to Styrofoam heads. The hair gets colored, curled and shampooed regularly. However, customers are welcome and can schedule an appointment with students who are monitored by instructors. For information or to schedule an appointment, call 303806-2390.

Colorado’s Finest Cosmetology Academy student Sarah Carpenter has her hair highlighted, styled and cut by fellow student Keegan Shaw. and is enrolled in the cosmetology program. “The training in esthetics I received here at school prepared me to go out and work in the industry,” the Ponderosa High School graduate said. “It has been good experience doing skin care and hair removal. I have grown a lot as a person. For one thing, I have learned a lot about how to have a good conversation with customers.” She said she enjoyed her work but she decided to return to school through ACC to receive additional training and to learn new skills, which will open a wider range of job opportunities. She said she will continue to work in esthetics while attending school so she can earn her cosmetology license, in part because the money she earns will help her pay the costs to take the course through ACC. This is Mollie Wood’s first year in the program and she said she likes it. “When I was little, I would style the hair on all my dolls. I also got into my mom’s makeup and tried it out,” she said. “The course is very good and
I believe this is the career for me.” Cloie Lemon, a Heritage High School student, said she enrolled in the course as a way to earn her license so she could get a job to help her pay for college. “I want to go to college to study musical theater,” she said. “With a cosmetology license, the job will help me pay for my musical theater college studies, so I won’t have to pay off a big student loan when I graduate from college.” She said she enjoys the cosmetology field and her favorite thing to do is coloring and styling hair. Hickey said the 24 students who will graduate June 18 have completed the practical course work are now in the classroom preparing to take the state licensing test. “We will wrap up this year’s program at the end of June,” she said. “The kids will be back in class in August. The program is popular and they are hiring a third instructor so we can accept additional students. Right now all our positions for August are filled and I have a waiting list of about 30 students.”
Fundraiser to honor memory of officer Englewood’s Jeremy Bitner was killed on duty in 2012 By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Organizers expect more than 350 men, women and children to gather at Cornerstone Park on June 18 to take part in the 2014 Jeremy Bitner Fallen Officer Fund Run and Walk. The annual event raises money to maintain the Jeremy Bitner Fallen Officer Fund, money that will be used to assist families of officers who sacrifice their lives in the line of duty. This is the fourth year for the event that is held in memory of
Englewood Detective Jeremy Bitner. The Centennial resident died May 28, 2012 when, while making a traffic stop, he sustained fatal injuries when he was hit by a car with a drunken driver at the wheel. Bitner had been with the Englewood Police Department for eight years. He was a patrol officer, member of the SWAT team and served as a training officer for new members of the department. He is survived by his wife and two children. Each person will registered to take part in the 10-kilometer run, the five-kilometer run or the five-kilometer walk, plus there is an unmeasured short walk for the children. The courses all start and end at
Cornerstone Park, that is located east of the intersection of West Belleview Avenue and South Windermere Street. Each course has been certified. Depending on the distance, the course winds through Cornerstone Park, Belleview Park, along the Big Dry Creek Trail and the Mary Carter Greenway. Children’s activities and vendor booths will open once the runs and the walks have been completed. A number of emergency vehicles will be on site and staffed so individuals can check out the equipment. For more information or to register, go to www.bitnermemorialfund. org.

Bees’ plight fuels one man’s efforts
Farmers’ market vendor educates customers about saving the pollinators By Mark Bautista Special to CCM Among the 20 booths at the Highlands Ranch Farmers’ Market bursting with colorful dyed clothes, bunches of asparagus and boxes of candied nuts, one stands out for its simplicity. Only three products adorn the table: two kinds of chocolate bars made from South American beans and a box of “Honey Pots” — think Rolo candies with honey instead of caramel. The latter is the signature product of a company called Beehive Chocolates. Ian Horvath, a professional sign-maker by day, is the man behind the chocolate. But his goal is about much more than selling the sweets. It’s about saving bees, whose populations are dwindling worldwide. “We are a chocolate company whose main focus is on honeybees and native pollinators,” Horvath, 26, said. “These creatures are the canary in the coal mine for our larger agricultural system and the environment as a whole.” Horvath, whose crusade to protect bees began in middle school, started making Honey Pots when he established the
Horvath enthusiastically describes to Highlands Ranch residents his passion for making chocolate and preserving bees. Photo by Mark Bautista company two years ago in Phoenix, where he grew up. Horvath moved to Fort Collins a year ago and generally sells his products in farmers’ markets around that area. A recent Sunday at Highlands Ranch’s Town Center was his first foray into the south metroDenver region because he wanted to try something new. A “one-man band,” Horvath sets up his stand with the hopes of attracting customers’ attention and opening discussion for his cause. His large yellow banner spells out the mission: “Bean to Bee.” “We try to educate about honeybees, what you can do on a local level to help the populations,” Horvath said.

He even invites customers to don beekeeper suits and learn more about bees firsthand at various bee farms throughout Denver. Chocolate, liked by just about everyone, is Horvath’s icebreaker. “It’s a great medium for me to engage with people,” he said. “After all, chocolate is only possible because of the bees and native pollinators in their respective countries.” Horvath also wants to involve children in the cause. “We’re trying to encourage a younger
generation to start beekeeping,” he said. “We want to introduce kids to bees so they’re not afraid of them because a lot of beekeepers are 55 and older.” There is a sense of urgency in Horvath’s mission. A recent phenomenon called Colony Collapse Disorder, in which a hive’s worker-bee population suddenly dies, has created losses of up to 90 percent of bees nationwide, especially in Iowa and California. Factors of the disorder, which began in 2006, range from an increase in certain parasites to pesticide poisoning that bees come into contact with during pollination. Though bee populations have been rising since 2010, such a dramatic loss concerns Horvath because bees pollinate up to one-third of a typical human’s diet. A large loss of bees can also increase the frequency of carbon footprints when farmers ship bees cross-country for pollination. Despite these challenges, Horvath is optimistic about the future of Beehive Chocolates. In addition to a new kitchen, the company plans to expand beyond farmers’ markets into groceries and boutique shops. And unlike hobbies or interests that dwindle over time, Horvath’s passion doesn’t show signs of vanishing. “I find I cling on to a lot of things and let go (of them) every so often,” he said. “This never really faded away.”

Lessons from a life well-lived This week I wanted to share a couple of lessons that I learned from Harry. Harry served our country in the U.S. Air Force for 20 years. When he retired from the Air Force, he worked for an insurance company for another 20 years and retired successfully from that company. At age 59, he started and built a very successful local insurance company of his own. And when he finally sold off that business he took a part time job at Home Depot just to keep busy and spend time with other people and helping other people. He also faithfully served his church as an usher and treasurer and volunteer for many projects and committees. Oh, and once a week Harry volunteered to serve meals to the homeless. Harry was my grandmother’s brother, so technically that made him my “great uncle.” He was a great uncle, a better man, a loving husband, and a man of faith who served God, our country, his fellow man, and the community. He was a special man who worked hard, loved much, and laughed often. He loved telling jokes and laughing at all the jokes others shared with him. Every time I called him or saw him he would have two or three jokes for every new one that I had prepared for him. His approach to balancing life and giving back was an incredible inspiration to me. My grandmother was the first one to ever make the comparison. I would lovingly tease her and she would always say, “You are just
like your Uncle Harry.” When I was a young boy I didn’t quite appreciate what that actually meant, but as I came to spend more time with Uncle Harry, it became a comparison and reference that I welcomed. For someone to say to me that I was just like my Uncle Michael Norton Harry was a badge I WINNING wore with honor and pride. And all I can WORDS hope and strive for is that as I live out the rest of my life I can have that same work ethic and spirit of love, laughter, giving back, and servanthood that he had. Unfortunately, Uncle Harry passed away last week after a very brief battle with brain cancer at the age of 85. And as I was flying back home here to Colorado after attending the funeral services I couldn’t help but think about all of the love, admiration, and comments made about my uncle. I know that happens at every memorial service as we all look for the good things to remember and hold on to about our closest friends and family. But as I watched the scrolling video loop of my uncle’s life and listened as people shared their stories, that same pride welled
up inside of me, and re-ignited a passion of who I want to be and what I want to do in this world. He was a difference maker in the lives of so many people and I hope to be a difference maker too. I have heard it said in several ways, but there will come a time in all of our lives where we will say one of two things, “I wish I had,” or “I am glad that I did.” If you are still reading this column, this is the part where you can take action and think of all the things that you are so glad that you did, and then make a list of all of the things you wish you had done and get busy making plans to do them. There is a difference maker in each and every one of us. Whether we do something little that makes a big difference in this world or we do something big that makes a little difference in our community or within our family, we can do something that positively impacts the lives of others. Are you just like my Uncle Harry? I’ll bet you have your own Uncle Harry and source of inspiration in your own life and I would love to hear all about that person at gotonorton@ gmail.com. And when we can take a lesson from a life well lived, it really will be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

Seems like old times, but with a difference Bob Dylan turned 75 in May. It’s not time yet to be consumed with reflection about Dylan. He is still performing. I’ll get to that. The first Dylan song that sounded good to me was performed by someone else. I didn’t warm up to him until after I heard “It Ain’t Me Babe” in 1965, recorded by the Turtles. The Turtles were a Westchester, California, band led Howard Kaylan and Mark Volman, who had been high school classmates. Volman was the chubby one. I saw him one night in a walk-up hamburger joint on Santa Monica Boulevard. The song is thought to be about Dylan’s exgirlfriend, Suze Rotolo (1943- 2011). She’s the girl walking with Dylan on the cover of “The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan.” (About their first meeting, Dylan said, “I couldn’t take my eyes off of her. She was the most erotic thing I had ever seen. Suddenly the air was full of banana leaves.”) Dylan allegedly wrote the chorus “no, no, no” as a parody of the Beatles “yeah, yeah,

yeah.” Life is not all Strawberry Fields, and maybe that’s part of the reason why I found comfort in Dylan’s asymmetrical and poetic songs, especially when I was in college. The lyrics are aimed at the upper half of your body, namely your head and your heart. What comes out today, most of it, is aimed at your lower
half. It’s all dance music. You can’t hop and dance around to poetry, generally.

iconic for its gullwing doors. “I have 11 cars and this is my favorite,” Kling said. This year’s show attracted nearly 16,000 people, organizers said. A pair of special cars didn’t have to come far. John Longo of Littleton brought his two 1963 Chevrolet Corvette coupes, a special year for the most recognizable American sports car. “They only did the split window one year,” Longo said, referring to the car’s rear window.
The split window was done away with for the next year because of impaired visibility issues. One of Longo’s Corvettes is rarer than the other because of its fuel-injected 327-cubic-inch V8, as opposed to the carbureted version in his other car. “All the split windows are beautiful cars,” he said. But one of the best parts of working with old cars is the community that surrounds the passion for them, said Longo, who shares his hobby of showing Corvettes with his son. “It’s fun,” Longo said, “it’s a good outlet, and you meet a lot of really cool people.”

25, 300 are expected to raise $20,000 at Philip S. Miller Park in Castle Rock. Finally, a Littleton event at Cornerstone Park on Aug. 5 should draw 100, with a fundraising goal of $20,000. The fundraising goals are based off of figures from previous years. Since the early 1990s, 1.5 million lives that would have been lost to cancer have been saved, Buccio said, and today, two of three people diagnosed with cancer live five years or more. “When we first began the fight against cancer, it was pretty much a
death sentence,” she said. Since its origin in Tacoma, Washington, in 1985, Relay for Life has become the world’s largest fundraising event fighting cancer, drawing 4 million participants to 6,000 events worldwide last year. Jyme Thomas, team ambassador for Relay for Life of Littleton, hopes to make volunteering for the cause a lifelong passion. Thomas began volunteering for Relay for Life in her Oklahoma hometown in high school and continued through
college. After moving to Colorado, she didn’t do it for a couple of years, making this her first year back. “I have a blast when I’m at Relay for Life,” she said. “It’s about happiness and letting those people know that they’re not alone.” Thomas has had several friends and family members battle cancer. “Everybody has somebody they know who has suffered from cancer,” she said. Individuals and teams wishing to participate in the events can learn more at www.relayforlife.org.

But rap. Aha. There are home movies of toddlers sparking it up to rap songs. It doesn’t take much intelligence or any contemplation to appreciate today’s music. You just have to want to wiggle, and watch your favorite performers wiggle. And change costumes. There is no one left in Dylan’s tree. Well, there’s Leonard Cohen. Cohen is 81. There was a time when a songwriter’s words mattered. Here are some names: Hoagy Carmichael, John Prine, Woody Guthrie, Townes Van Zandt, Tim Buckley, Ian Tyson (Ian & Sylvia), Joan Baez. If you haven’t heard of Van Zandt, maybe you have heard of “Pancho & Lefty,” one of his songs. See if you can find Buckley singing “Pleasures of the Harbor.” I don’t know what to make of this. CNN’s Gene Seymour wrote, “After decades of rambling, raging, rocking and
seemingly inexhaustible reinventing, the artist from Hibbing, Minnesota, born as Robert Zimmerman and known to us as Bob Dylan, is 75 years old, a walking diamond jubilee; still alive, still on the road, and coming soon to an arena or amphitheater near you to sing classic popular music.” Only it’s not Dylan’s popular music. It’s Frank Sinatra’s. It makes some sense. Sinatra’s best songs have the same kind of unsentimental melancholy. There won’t be much of an uproar. Dylan doesn’t stimulate that kind of reaction any more, like he did when he went from acoustic to electric. It’s simply another reinvention. There’s a Dylan song (“Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again”) that refers to an elderly man who has lost control. “He built a fire on Main Street and shot it full of holes.” Dylan hasn’t lost control. Frank Sinatra was actually a perfect choice. I might think differently if he were singing Nancy Sinatra. Dylan will perform at Red Rocks on June 19.

Finding time for family
Jasmyne Kettwick plays a board game with her daughter, Kingsley, 5, left, and her son, Cannon, 3. Kettwick, a family therapist, says it is crucial for working parents to find a daily routine in order to spend quality time with their children. Photos by Tom Skelley
Working parents face challenges to spend time with children
By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Any working parent can relate to Tiffany Haynes. “It’s hard,” she said. “Balancing work and sports and all of that stuff. I feel like nine times out of 10 I’m just trying to make ends meet.” Like millions of Americans, Haynes works full time while raising her family. She runs her own housecleaning service in Parker and has three children, all of whom are involved in various sports outside of school. “I make time with my kids whenever I can,” she said, “but most of the time, that time is at sporting events.” She recently got engaged, but Haynes has been a single working parent for nine years. According to Bureau of Labor Statistics, she’s among millions of mothers who support their families. In 2015, 70.8 percent of women in single-parent households worked full time. It would seem that having two parents in the home would decrease the strain on schedules and allow more time for families to be together, but data indicate that isn’t the case. In a 45-year study, the Pew Research Center found the number of families in which both parents work full time has increased from 31 percent to 46 percent between 1970 and 2015. Both parents work at least part time in 60.6 percent of all American families, according to whitehouse.gov. Parents in the Pew study also reported that more time on the job and less time at
home takes a toll on their ability to have meaningful family time. Approximately 40 percent of working mothers reported they spend too little time with their children, and 50 percent of working fathers said the same. Numbers indicate the problem is growing, but statistics don’t tell the whole story. “It definitely is getting worse,” said Jasmyne Kettwick,
a family therapist in Parker who’s seen an increase in parents who say they are too busy to spend enough time with their children. “People are working a lot harder to really get ahead. It takes much more to buy a home, to pay off student loan debt … we are working harder and longer.” Family continues on Page 13

The ‘Facebook Effect’ Other factors, like social media, contribute to the issue, Kettwick said. The “Facebook Effect,” she said, comes into play when a parent sees peers posting images that portray a successful work life paired with an ideal family life, regardless of whether or not that image is real. Kettwick says it’s important to remember that social media posts show only what the poster wants the world to see. But the effect can still be upsetting for a parent who struggles to balance work and family. “It can bring them down if they see others achieving something they aren’t able to achieve,” Kettwick said, “if they see something on social media like Facebook that they would like to do, but they feel it’s unattainable because they are too strapped for money or time or energy.” Haynes knows what Kettwick means. “I work full time and I see these moms posting things,” she said. “Part of me wants to say `What do these people do?’ How do they find time to make homemade cupcakes for their kid’s class when I barely have time to go to the grocery store and buy them for my kids’ classes?’ ” Another catalyst for stress among working parents is the idea that they have to be successful in every aspect of life. “The glorification of busy,” Kettwick said, leads many working parents to try too hard to have it all. “There are so many things to get right,” Kettwick said. “You have to have a nice home that’s put together like all the homes you see on HGTV, you have to be able to provide meals for your family that are healthy and presentable, you have to be able to have a job where you can sustain a certain lifestyle, and you have to be able to get your kids to all their activities.” Jennifer Winship doesn’t want to have it all. She just wants 20 minutes with her sons. Winship and her husband, Eric, share custody of her two sons, Brennan, 16, and Jakeb, 11, with her ex-husband. The alternating weeks that the boys spend with their father give her and Eric time to connect. But on the weeks the boys are with them in their Parker home, things can get hectic. Eric works 40 hours a week and Jennifer works between 40 and 50. Jakeb is involved in a computer club and swimming six days a week and Brennan is on a robotics team, plays football and just landed a student internship at Lockheed Martin. “We try to do dinner together — that is the time we come around and ask `How was your day?’ and find out what’s going on the next day,” Jennifer said. “It’s kind of our time to regroup. Even if it’s only 20 minutes, we try to figure that out.” Despite family dinner being a priority, Eric and Jennifer say they still have “FFYN” or “fend-for-yourself-night” about once a week, when schedules and fatigue dictate an a la carte menu.
Jennifer and Eric say their family doesn’t compare their situation to others on social media. They may not have the ideal life Kettwick says many families strive for, but they’re happy with the one they have. “This is life,” Jennifer said with a shrug. “As a parent, I accept the fact that for the next however many years I have with them, I’m going to be tired, and I’m OK with that. It is what it is and when you reach levels of acceptance in life and you realize that this is just part of it, it’s not such a burden.” Making family time a priority Like many of her clients, Kettwick says she does creative scheduling and utilizes her parents. Her husband, Andy, is out of state four days a week and their calendar forces them to plan the time they will spend together. Making family time a priority is essential, Kettwick said, for parents to overcome the feeling that they just don’t have enough time to be with their children. And, she says, it’s something all families can do. A family dinner, going bowling or having a game night can provide the time a family needs to bond and connect, but Kettwick says it needs to be planned in advance so family members can look forward to it instead of looking back on it as a missed opportunity. “Create a couple of really strong goals for your family … something small to start with,” Kettwick said. “Make it attainable, and actually schedule it in … You can also have it be something more general, like saying `these are the five things I want us to do this summer,’ and then make sure you fit them in as you go.” Single-parent families like Haynes and her children face a tougher challenge to find family time, but Kettwick says quality is more important than quantity. After a long workday many single parents feel drained. They may not have enough down time to help with homework or read with them, but finding one simple thing to build a routine around can make all the difference to children, Kettwick says. “All kids crave having a routine,” she said. Finding one activity — setting the table, preparing dinner or even watching television together — can provide the “quality time piece” children and the parent can count on. “It helps both of them know that this is something that will be done, each day,” she said. Kettwick says everyone’s idea of the perfect family routine or activity is different. What matters, she says is simply being together. “Kids just want to spend time with their parents,” she said. “They don’t need it to be perfect.” Haynes doesn’t need an expert to tell her that. She says she rarely eats dinner with her children and they spend an average of 10 hours a week together, mostly on weekends, “going from one sporting event to the next.” But she doesn’t complain. “I don’t feel like we’re missing out on good family time,” she said. “It’s just when you have working parents, this becomes your new normal.”

‘Relax isn’t an option’ Two families share their daily routines Audrey Beckman and her husband, Wade, each work full time and their children, 10-year-old Arika and 7-year-old Bear, participate in activities including soccer, swimming, baseball, band and fencing. “ ‘Relax’ isn’t an option,” she said. Beckman leaves for work early each morning, so her husband feeds the children breakfast and gets them to school. But the family tries to have dinner together most nights. Beckman says they live within their means, eating in instead of frequenting restaurants, and saving up for extras instead of charging them to a credit card. While they would like to take a vacation “to someplace that doesn’t rhyme with ‘Dakota,’ ” Beckman says she accepts that they will have to wait, at least until the kids are grown. Like many families, a lot of family

time is spent at sporting events. She feels like she and her husband do “pretty well” at being available for their children, but Beckman says the couple relies on friends and other neighborhood parents to fill in gaps in their family schedule. “We’ve discovered that it really takes a village to raise kids,” she said. Erin Jones and her husband, Adam, also have a village of family and friends to support them. Adam travels frequently, leaving Erin to hold down the fort with her 2-year-old son, Jack, during the day. She usually works evenings after the children are in bed. A marketing specialist, Jones says she’s grateful she can work from home, but ends up working a lot of late nights and weekends. She schedules her workload around the time she’s able to spend with her children, and she calls on her parents and friends for child care when she needs to catch up. “There’s never a dull moment,” Jones said.

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF JUNE 6, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Lots of possibilities begin to open up by midweek. Some seem more appealing than others. But wait for more facts to emerge later on before you consider which to choose. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Bravo to the determined Bovine. While others might give up, you continue to search for answers. Expect your Taurean tenacity to begin paying off by week’s end. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might want to consider stepping back from the task at hand for a while. This could help you get a better perspective on what you’ve done and what still needs to be done. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Your keen Cancerian insight should help you determine whether a new offer is solid or just more fluff ‘n’ stuff. The clues are all there, waiting for you to find them. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Being ignored is difficult for any proud Leo or Leona. But pushing yourself back into the spotlight might be unwise. Instead, let things work themselves out at their own pace. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Trying to uncover a colleague’s secret under the pretext of showing concern is ill-advised. Control your curiosity in order to avoid raising resentment in the workplace.

TO SOLVE SUDOKU: Numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Expect to hear good news about a loved one. Also, be prepared for some changes in several family relationships that could develop from this lucky turn of events. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Some surprises are expected to accompany a number of changes that will continue through part of next week. At least one could involve a romantic situation. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) You might be upset by some of your critics. But most of your associates continue to have faith in your ability to get the job done, and done well.
Answers
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A workplace goal that suddenly seems out of reach is no problem for the sure-footed Goat, who moves steadily forward despite any obstacles placed in his or her way. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Uncertainty about who is right and who isn’t might keep you from making a clear-cut decision. Wait until you know more about what you’re being asked to decide. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Be careful to keep your emotions in check when dealing with a demanding personal situation. You need to set an example of strength for others to follow. BORN THIS WEEK: You have an extraordinary ability to rally people to do their best. You would be a treasure as a teacher.

Local standouts take field for national team U.S. women’s soccer squad faces Japan in Commerce City By Jim Benton jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Mallory Pugh and Lindsey Horan, two local soccer standouts, highlighted the match — an exhibition game known as a friendly — between the national teams of the United States and Japan on June 4 before a sellout crowd at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City. Horan, a Golden High School graduate and a second-half substitute, scored in the 89th minute as the U.S. overcame a 2-0 deficit to take a 3-2 lead. But, what appeared to be a comeback victory turned into a 3-3 tie against a disciplined, pressing, ballcontrol Japanese team. Japan, competing with only 10 players because captain Japanese captain Yuki Ogimi was ejected for a second yellow card, scored in stoppage time on a U.S. defensive breakdown to gain the tie. “It was awesome,” said Horan, who is nursing a hip injury but was OK to be among the 18 players on the roster. “You want to come into the game and impact it. For the team it was a great goal but in the grand scheme of things, we tied.” Pugh, who graduated May 18 from Mountain Vista high school, proved to be an 18-year-old that can compete with some of the world’s best players. She started and played the entire game. Pugh took a chip from Crystal Dunn, beat a Japanese defender, and then with good vision, found Alex Morgan with a quick pass. Morgan scored the first USA goal in the 27th minute and Pugh gained her team-leading sixth assist for the national team in 2016. In the 84th minute, Pugh was pulled down while chasing a loose ball, which set up a free kick. Morgan scored her second goal of the game to tie the score at 2-2.
After an assist to teammate Alex Morgan, Mallory Pugh celebrates the first United States goal of the game. At almost 30 minutes into the first half, Pugh passed to Morgan and Morgan hit the shot, putting the U.S. at a deficit of only one goal. This was Pugh’s sixth assist this season. Photo by Conner Davis “It was amazing,” Pugh said. “Knowing that we were playing a good opponent here and with my teammates around me and my friends and family was really cool.” Japan and the U.S. were finalists in the past two World Cups and the 2012 Olympics. Japan won the 2011 World Cup, while the U.S. claimed the 2012 Olympic and 2015 World Cup championships. That was part of the reason that the match sold out in a little more than 10 minutes and 18,572 fans witnessed the game, cheering almost every time the U.S. made a rush into the offensive zone. Morgan was amazed with Pugh and the crowd. “I feel like Mal is always Mal, the same every day,”
Morgan said. “She never looks nervous to me. She is always true to herself. I love that part of Mal. She always looks like she has a lot of confidence when she takes on other players. “I don’t know if we have ever sold out a game (as) quickly as we did with this game. The stadium was awesome and helped us get through that 2-0 deficit. I have to give credit to the fans.” Pugh and Horan were two of three Colorado youth players on the 24-player USA team that must be reduced to 18 for the Olympics, which begin Aug. 3 in Rio de Janeiro. With only 18 players allowed to suit up for the June 2 game, Valor Christian graduate and de-
fender Jaelene Hinkle was one of the six who did not play. Here is a look at the three Colorado players. Jaelene Hinkle Hinkle, 23, is a 2010 graduate of Valor Christian. She played youth soccer for Colorado Real, and has been part of the U.S. National program for the past six years. She played at Texas Tech and has been playing professional soccer for the Hinkle Western New York Flash. She made her debut on the U.S. Women’s National Team last October.
She is proud to be representing Colorado on a national platform. “Two clubs come to mine: Real Colorado and Rush Colorado soccer,” she said. “Even when I was younger, those were two big soccer clubs and the directors of both soccer clubs have really done a lot taking Colorado soccer to the next level, getting kids at a young age to start playing so that there is more time to develop and make them better soccer players. “It’s a really big step in the right direction. It says a lot about Colorado’s direction, dedication and commitment to soccer and developing world-class players.” Soccer continues on Page 22
Valor coach says goodbye after winning baseball title It’s nice to go out on top like Peyton Manning or John Elway after Super Bowl wins. While he’s not retiring, Valor Christian baseball coach Keith Wahl is leaving on top. Two days after his team won the Class 4A state baseball championship, Wahl announced he was resigning. Wahl told his team the morning of May 31 and later that day Valor Christian issued a news release stating that Wahl had accepted a job as athletic director at Briarwood Christian, a K-12 school in Birmingham, Alabama. “I want to thank everyone at Valor for my time over the past nine years,” Wahl said in the statement. Wahl was also an assistant athletic director at Valor. He has been at Valor since the school opened in 2007 and he leaves after compiling a 127-61 record with
six league baseball championships and one state title. “We are very thankful for the years of coaching, teaching and ministry that coach Wahl has given to our students at Valor Christian,” said Athletic Director Jim Benton Jamie Heiner in the same statement. “He OVERTIME has built a strong foundation for future success in the baseball program and we look forward to building on that foundation in the coming years.” New Mountain Vista AD Shawn Terry is the new athletic direc-
tor at Mountain Vista. Terry was the AD at Northridge High School in Greeley last year and takes over at Vista for Pat McCabe. Before assuming duties at Northridge, Terry was activities director at William Chrisman in Independence, Missouri, and was the AD/assistant principal at Leavenworth High School in Kansas. Lakewood resident in top 10 Lakewood resident Doug Wherry, who owns and operates Jake’s Academy junior elite golf school at the Lone Tree Golf Club, finished tied for sixth in the Colorado Senior Open June 1-3 at Green Valley Ranch Golf Club. Wherry, the 1981 state golf champion at Cherry Creek High School, had rounds of 69, 74 and 70 to finish with a 2-under par 211 total to win $1,700.
During the three rounds, the former All-American at Texas-El Paso had 12 birdies, 33 pars and nine bogeys. Four of the bogeys came during his 2-over-par second round. Help wanted sign at Arapahoe Arapahoe is looking for a new baseball coach. Luke Muller, an Arapahoe graduate, told athletic director Steve Sisler that the 2016 season would be his last as Warriors head coach because he wanted to spend more time with his family. In the past nine seasons, Arapahoe has gone 100-81 under Muller, 36. Jim Benton is a sports writer for Colorado Community Media. He has been covering sports in the Denver area since 1968.

Lacrosse player honored Castle View athlete raking in the awards Munro takes award for all-around skills
Mountain Vista’s Colin Munro is Colorado Community Media’s South Metro Boys Lacrosse Player of the Year. Photo by Paul DiSalvo
By Jim Benton jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Colin Munro makes highlight-reel plays with his behind-the-back goals and passes, but his offensive skills aren’t only things that make him the Colorado Community Media South Metro Boys Lacrosse Player of the Year. “He’s worked hard at putting that skill into his repertoire,” his dad and Mountain Vista coach Jamie Munro responded when asked about his son’s behind-the-back skill. “In lacrosse, most people don’t do that. It would be like in hockey if you switched hands all the time instead of using your backhand. It takes time to learn the skill and the confidence to use it. “Colin gets the notoriety for scoring goals, but for a non-faceoff guy he was one of the leaders in ground balls on the team and he also played a lot on defense. He was one of our set defensive guys, and as an offensive player he is just a good versa-
tile player that can do things in a lot of different ways.” Colin Munro, who perfected his behind-the-back abilities by practicing on a wooden board in his backyard as a youngster, was switched to a midfield position from attack this season, but that didn’t affect his offensive contributions. “The nice thing about it (behind-the-back passes and shots) is you can throw it a little later to a spot and kind of let people run after it,” explained Colin. “It’s hard to guard because a lot of people don’t see it coming.” Munro, a junior who has committed to play lacrosse at North Carolina, led the Douglas County League with 54 goals and 84 points. He
was second among Class 5A players in goals and third with points for Mountain Vista, which finished the season 18-2 after a 5A semifinal playoff upset loss to Arapahoe. “It was a really fun season but a little disappointing finish for us,” said Colin, who will again play box lacrosse most of the summer in British Columbia. “I would say I like attack better but the team needed me to play some defense, and I love playing defense because I love being out there. It was pretty fun to be able to play both and be able to shoot. “Box lacrosse is a tremendous help with my shooting, catching and finishing and toughness. It goes a long ways to make me a better field player.”

Heritage senior gets rewarded for sticking with golf Kempton skips tennis and wins south metro honors By Jim Benton jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Heritage High School senior Joanna Kempton focused on golf this spring and proved that paying attention to one sport in the spring can be beneficial. Kempton divided her time and efforts in three previous years between golf and tennis, but this spring decided to aban-
don tennis. “This was the first year she focused solid on golf; as you could tell by her scores, she wasn’t splitting time between golf and tennis,” said Eagles coach Matt Kennan. “She shot between 71 and 79 in all Kempton the tournaments.” Kempton was named the Colorado Community Media Girls Golfer of the Year, and concentrating on one sport was an advantage that was noted when she added up the number of

strokes on the scorecard. “It helped me out a lot because I got to work in practice a lot more,” said Kempton. “It was a lot less stressful for me. I wanted to become consistent all year. I wanted to practice it all but I spend more time on my short game.” Kempton was the medalist at the Class 5A Northern Regional qualifying tournament May 9 when she fired a 1-under-par 71 at the Ptarmigan Golf and Country Club. “That was my best round of the season,” she recalled. “I played pretty well. Everything was kind of working for me. I

Lindsey Horan Horan, 22, graduated from Golden High School, but didn’t play prep soccer and instead played for the Colorado Rush. After graduation in 2012 she turned down an offer to play at the University of North Carolina and signed a professional contract with Paris SaintGermain. Her contract with Paris Saint-Germain was terminated after three seasons so she could return to Horan the United States and she signed with the Portland Thorns of the National Women’s Soccer League in January. She was called up to the national team late in 2015. “It was probably one of the most difficult things I’ve done,” Horan said about signing a pro contract to play in Paris at a young age. “Playing overseas, playing in a new culture, and in the beginning just being away from home, were very difficult for me. “It just game me the experience at playing at a high level, being in a new country and learning things on my own. That was an experience you couldn’t get anywhere else. Going to college is new and different but going overseas was a whole new world. Then on the soccer side you are playing with so many international players and just learning from them and learning from all their experience gave me a lot.” Horan knows it will be tough to make
wasn’t thinking too much on what I was doing. I was just hitting the greens and I was making my putts.” Kempton was the top finisher among South Metro golfers at the 5A state tournament, which was held May 23-24 at Common Ground Golf Course in Aurora. She had back-to-back rounds of 79 and finished ninth with a 158 total. “I know I probably could have done better,” said Kempton, who will be attending Colorado State University in the fall but won’t play golf. “My goal was to make the top 10. I did that and was pretty happy.”
the 18-player team for the Rio Olympics. “Everyone here is competing for a spot and picking the roster will be semi soon,” she said. “Anytime I was training with Rush, my goal was to make the national team. Everything I did was to fulfill that dream I had.” Mallory Pugh Pugh, 18, elected not to play for Mountain Vista this spring and instead trained with the Real U16 boys Academy team. However, she was on the roster, sat on the Vista bench and supported the team. The Golden Eagles played in the state championship game at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park Pugh on May 18, falling 2-1 to Grandview. Pugh returned and got to play at the venue with the U.S. Women’s National Team with a chance to make the Olympic roster. “I didn’t play in the state championship and it was weird sitting on the sidelines,” she said. “Being here with the National Team had an impact and being in my hometown was special. “It was tough sitting on the sidelines for high school games. Sitting on the sidelines of any game is tough but in the back of my mind I was thinking about getting better and the best environment for me was with the boys academy team. That’s what I did to prepare me.” Pugh took a step toward earning a spot on the Olympic team with a solid game against Japan on June 2. “I always thought my freshman year about the 2016 Olympics,” she said. “I wondered if I could ever make that, I’m still wondering and driving to do that.”
