Clerk relishes her work in Centennial Madison has been with city since 2003 By George Lurie
glurie@ourcoloradonews.com Brenda Madison was hired as Centennial’s deputy city clerk in December 2003. At the time, the city was just two years old. “A friend who was doing contract work for the city was putting feelers out for an assistant clerk position and invited me to come in and interview,” Madison said. Seven years later, after Centennial became a “home rule” city and the clerk and recorder job changed to an appointed rather than elected position, then-city manager Jacque Wedding-Scott promoted Madison to the department’s top job. Today, she has the distinction of being Centennial’s longest-tenured employee. “Brenda is a consummate professional,” says Centennial City Manager John Danielson. “The knowledge and skills she demonstrates daily do not go unnoticed. We’re lucky to have her.” “When I started working here, there was no city clerk’s office,” Madison said. “I pretty much put it together, from establishing procedures and creating forms to all of the other things we do today. I have been very fortunate to have a very stellar staff,” Madison added, crediting in particular her deputy clerk, Barb Setterlind, who has been with her since 2007. “Barb and I work very closely together,” she said, including sitting side by side at every city council meeting. During council meetings, Madison focuses “mostly on procedural things. The details of what’s being discussed by the council and city staff are really not part of my bailiwick,” she said. “I concentrate on making sure the meeting is running smoothly and that we are accurately recording everything.” Madison’s job description is fairly wideranging. “I am the designated election official, clerk to city council, in charge of records management, liquor licensing,
The country’s second-busiest general aviation airport wants to be a good neighbor. So in an effort to help minimize the impact of noise from the more than 850 aircraft that take off and land at Centennial Airport every day, the Arapahoe County Public Airport Authority now employs a full-time “noise specialist” — and just finished installing 12 noise monitors in a wide area around the airport’s perimeter. The 22-foot-tall monitors, six located in Arapahoe County and six in Douglas County, were purchased with a $1.5 million grant from the FAA. According to Scott Drexler, Centennial Airport’s noise and planning specialist, the monitors will all be fully operational by the end of October. Airport officials also plan to utilize two additional mobile monitors that can be moved around in response to future noise complaints. “Just because your house isn’t right next to a monitor, it doesn’t mean that our system won’t be able to track the noise levels in your neighborhood,” said Drexler, who has worked at the airport for two years and been in his current job as noise specialist for five months. “Noise is very subjective,” he said. “Working here, you get used to it. It doesn’t bother me at all. And I actually live just a mile and a half from the airport.” But when the Centennial Airport Community Noise Roundtable was created in May 2009, aircraft engine noise had become a big concern for many living and working near the airport, which does not handle commercial airline traffic but still

I also do pawnbroker licensing, recruit boards and commissions, publish legal notices,” she added. “My days can get pretty busy.” “You wouldn’t know it from looking at my office but I am a very organized person,” she added. “You have to be organized to be a city clerk. Accuracy in all aspects of the job is the most important thing to me — making sure we don’t make mistakes, and if we do, taking care of them right away.” Born in Phoenix, Madison moved to Colorado when she was in the sixth grade. She calls her husband Mo “the love of my life” and has two daughters, Jenny and Brandee. Her resume reads like a Horatio Alger story: Hired as a receptionist by the City of Englewood when she was 22, she worked her way into positions of increasing responsibility in the city’s personnel, central cashiering and police departments.
In 1991, Madison said, “I found my true calling and went to work in the city clerk’s office.” Pat Crow, then Englewood’s city clerk, recognized Madison’s abilities and eventually promoted her to the position of deputy city clerk. Then, in 2001, she accepted a position as Sheridan’s city clerk, and a year and a half later came to work in Centennial. Madison, who has taken courses at the University of Colorado and Arapahoe Community College but has no formal degree, has been honored twice by the Colorado Municipal Clerks Association (CMCA) with Distinguished Service awards. In 2010, she served as CMCA state president. Today, she earns $101,000 a year. Contrary to what some might think, election season is not a particularly busy Clerk continues on Page 7

Officials dedicate new playgrounds Ribbon-cuttings held at Twain, Sandburg elementaries By George Lurie
glurie@ourcoloradonews.com Two new playgrounds were dedicated last week in Centennial in dual celebrations of outdoor learning that would have made the schools’ namesakes writer and poet proud. On Oct. 24, officials from the City of Centennial and Littleton Public Schools held ribbon-cutting ceremonies for colorful new playgrounds at Mark Twain and Carl Sandburg Elementary schools. In collaboration with the City of Centennial, Littleton Public Schools created two “multigenerational” playgrounds that
feature outdoor classrooms, walking/running trails and outdoor play areas. The city provided $200,000 for the new playground construction projects. Twain received new playground equipment, a trail and an outdoor covered classroom. A trail, an outdoor classroom and an outdoor musical play area were added at Sandburg. Centennial Mayor Cathy Noon and LPS Superintendent Scott Murphy spoke at the Oct. 24 ribbon-cutting ceremonies at each school. “We were very excited to partner with the Littleton School District on this project,” said Noon. “These new playgrounds are just terrific and will add an exciting new dimension to the students’ learning experience.”

Veterans Day rites scheduled Littleton, Fort Logan hold Nov. 11 events By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Two Veterans Day ceremonies, one in Littleton and one at Fort Logan National Cemetery, will be held at 11 a.m. Nov. 11, honoring veterans and those serving in the military. The Littleton ceremony will be held at the World War II memorial at Ketring Park, 6000 S. Gallup St. Fort Logan National Cemetery is at 3698 S. Sheridan Blvd. The Littleton ceremony is sponsored by Pat Hannon Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4666 and George C. Evans American Legion Post 103. The guest speaker is Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman. In a separate Veterans Day event at 1 p.m. at Littleton’s St. Mary Catholic School, the Knights of Columbus will present the school a plaque in memory of Pat Hannon, who was the first Littleton resident to die in Vietnam.

Jury awards $3.75M in 2010 drowning case

website at www.ourcoloradonews.com.
An Arapahoe County jury has awarded $3.75 million in a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the parents of a Centennial boy who drowned in the shallow end of the Southglenn Country Club pool. Drennen O’Melia was 12 years old when he drowned on June 6, 2010, during a private birthday party at the country club pool. The boy’s parents, Bill O’Melia and Melissa McGarvin-O’Melia, filed a wrongful death suit against the country club in
of the Memorial Service Network, Denver. The event includes placing a ceremonial wreath and flowers at a headstone symbolic of the thousands of headstones in the cemetery. The wreath placement is followed by the traditional 21-gun salute. As the last volley is fired, an array of horn players stationed around the lake will play the echo version of “Taps.” When the Fort Logan ceremony ends, lunch will be served at Verle Huffman VFW Post 9644, 2680 W. Hampden Ave. The nation began honoring veterans in 1926 when Armistice Day was held for the first time to commemorate the end of World War I and to honor those who served. Th event was marked on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, the same time, day and month that the fighting ended in World War I. In 1938, the day was declared a national holiday. In its early history, Armistice Day was focused on honoring World War I veterans. In the early 1950s, Congressman Edwin Rees of Kansas proposed changing the name of the holiday to Veterans Day and making it a time to honor all those who served in the armed forces, and in 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the bill, officially making Nov. 11 Veterans Day.

In addition to the Southglenn Country Club, the lawsuit also named then-general manager Jerald Nonko and the two lifeguards on duty the day Drennen died, sisters Ana and Mary Malnati. During the six-day trial, an expert testified that Drennen was underwater for at least five minutes before he was pulled out of the pool. The jury returned its verdict on Oct. 23.

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com The workflow continues on the South Platte River, with the next phase of improvements set to begin in January. “We’re trying to get it to be more of a creek inside a river,” explained Ben Nielsen of McLaughlin Whitewater Design Group, which is consulting on the project. The first phase, the portion of the river that runs through South Platte Park, wrapped up in June at a cost of $880,000. Features were added to create a more meandering path in some places, and the banks were stabilized. The river was narrowed from 100 feet across to 40, in turn deepening it. All the enhancements were designed to maintain flood protection while improving the living conditions for fish and other wildlife. The same will occur in phase two, from the Meadowood mobile-home community upstream to South Platte Park, at an expected cost of $1.1 million. The third and last phase, from Mineral Avenue upstream to C-470, should start in November of next year and cost $2.6 million. Arapahoe County and the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District are the major funders, but they’re joined by the cities of Littleton and Englewood, the Colorado Water Conservation Board and South Suburban Parks and Recreation District. The goal is to cure ailments caused by the construction of Chatfield Dam, built after the major flood in 1965. The once-rushing flow of the river is now controlled by the release of water from Chatfield Reservoir. This lowered the water level, resulting in a shallower river too narrow for its

The next phase is slated to start in January and will focus downstream of South Platte Park. Photo by Jennifer Smith banks. It also straightened the Platte’s course and, because water from Chatfield is free of sediment, created perfect conditions for excessive erosion. This threatens the trees and other vegetation on the river’s banks. All in all, the Platte is a much less attractive environment for wildlife than before the dam existed. “A natural-based restoration approach was taken for proposed improvements whenever possible,” reads a report prepared by Ecological Resource Consultants Inc., which designed the project. “The guiding principle of the natural-restoration approach is that an enhanced stream
system should mimic a natural channel in appearance and function. Recreating the natural form and function within the stream system will allow lost natural balance to be restored.” A separate project is in the works for north of Littleton, which will create a “mini-Confluence Park” between Oxford and Union avenues. It could feature kayaking, surfing, tubing and wading, and be accessible to the disabled. The South Platte Working Group is still rounding up money for it, but assuming all goes well, construction should start in winter of next year.

Healing touch applied to animals Holistic approach aids horses, dogs, more By Ryan Boldrey
rboldrey@ ourcoloradonews.com In 20 years, Carol Komitor has taught close to 5,000 students, and between all of them, touched hundreds of thousands of animals — literally. Komitor, a Highlands Ranch resident, founded Healing Touch for Animals in 1996, combining a background in veterinary medicine with her passion for holistic healing. “I thought I was going to go the avenue of massage,” she said, “but it turned out to be more energy-based.” Komitor, who at the time had 13 years of background as a veterinary technician, was introduced to holistic healing through a workshop, and was far from sold at first. Once she started participating in some of the exercises, however, she began to experience the energy flowing directly through her. “It was a tactile experience,” she said. “I started to explore whatever I could get my hands on. I then spent half a day at Tattered Cover (in Denver) and bought several books on what energy healing was all about.” After becoming certified as

After a breakthrough with a show horse that had been left for dead, she knew she was on the right path. “Animals have an energy field that is 10 times greater than humans,” she said. “I can see it. And opposed to the human field which is made up of layers, an animal’s field is just one layer that is made up more of pixels.” Understanding that humans and animals are alike in that when either has a balanced, clear and open energy system they possesses their own inherent ability to assist in healing is the underlying key, she said. That holistic work should not be performed independently of conventional medicine, is another major piece she’s adamant about. “We don’t have the ability to do surgery or perform diagnostics,” she said. “But we have the ability to assist the animals in a part of natural healing.” The author of five instruction manuals that go along with her teachings, half of Komitor’s

OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS
Some helmet designers need heads examined I was asked recently to identify the best, worst, and least inspired football helmets. It will be a snap and a pleasure. The worst ever — let’s start with the bad ones — were the early John Elwayera Broncos helmets. I thought a middle school student had won a horse-drawing contest. A rearing bronco was located in a decent block “D.” The horse was snorting. As a classic Dan Aykroyd character, “Bad Cinema” host Leonard Pinth-Garnell, said, “Astonishingly ill-chosen.” But someone came along, looked at a Ford Mustang logo, and came up with the current helmet graphic. Not very creative, but it is a lot better than Flicka was. A close second was the Miami Dolphins helmet pre-2013. It showed a dolphin wearing a helmet. No chinstrap. The dolphin was leaping in front of, not through, an orange hoop. “Stunningly bad.” The Washington Redskins, currently and justifiably being scolded for their nickname, once had a helmet with a single feather up the back. The current helmet emblem is almost as bad. Oregon has a different look every week. Against Washington State they wore Pepto
Bismol-pink helmets. If worn every week, they would be the worst ever. “Monumentally ill-advised.” The cardinal on Louisville’s helmet has teeth. “Stunningly bad.” Tennessee has the worst helmet logo in the NFL. I don’t know how to explain it. A spiky “T” in a circle with three red stars. Spewing from the upper left are what? Powder blue and red flames? Powder blue and red are b-a-d together. The agency that came up with all of this should be avoided. Miami of Ohio. I don’t have the vocabulary. Look it up. “Couldn’t be worse.” Honorable Mention: Akron, Maryland, New York Jets. The Best Ever? University of Michigan. Go Blue. The helmets are iconic, and
Commitment is the key to building will power “Stay strong!” “You can do it!” “Don’t give in!” “Keep the faith!” “Stay the course!” Many times when we begin the pursuit of a worthy goal such as losing weight, stopping smoking, saving money for a specific reason, or getting into shape we very quickly come to the crossroads of temptation and will power. It’s at this intersection where we find ourselves face to face with the desires that drive us toward our “wants” and where our resolve to adhere to our goal or plan becomes tested. And that’s when we have the proverbial angel on our right shoulder and the devil on our left shoulder. The angel is encouraging us to stay strong, reminding us that we can do it and not to give in. And then that little devil on the opposite side pushes us and nudges us and whispers in our ear that, “Its OK, one doughnut won’t hurt, go ahead take a bite, you can start again tomorrow!” Will power is easy for some and much harder for others. Typically people with strong will power are very goals oriented and results driven. When they set their sights on a target, there is not much that they will let stand in their way once they commit themselves and begin their quest towards that goal. However, there are many more of us who struggle with will power. The thoughts or ideas of pursuing a worthwhile goal come easily enough as we really do want to make a change or difference in our health, in a struggling relationship, or in attempting to quit a bad habit. And sometimes we want these things so badly we jump in eagerly towards the “fix” that we blow right by the planning and expectations phase and forget how important it is to set realistic milestones where we can measure our success along the way. Commitment is a big word when it comes to will power. And in order to be committed and dedicated to that which we are pursuing, we have to be able to have a plan, see what victory or success looks like, and manage our expectations along the way. It’s like the person who is not in very good physical condition and wakes up one day and decides they will begin working out immediately that morning. Instead of going in with a plan that starts slowly and builds their muscle strength and endurance up, they rush right in and do as much as possible on day one. I applaud the initiative, but
then day two happens and the person wakes up so sore and in so much pain that they can’t go back to the gym for days. Days turn into weeks, weeks into months. You know the rest of the story. Will power is one of those terms that is easy to say, sounds good, and even feels good when we say it. It is so easy for others to use as a statement of hope and encouragement. But at the end of the day, will power is a very personal thing. We have to want to make the changes in our lives more than any other person. We sure do appreciate their love, support, concern, and encouragement, however as the old saying goes, “If it’s to be, it’s up to me!” To strengthen our will power or resolve for the achievement of our goals we must first make sure we understand the “why” behind the goal, that it is in alignment with our truest beliefs and values, that we can commit to the actions necessary, that we have a support team, family member, friend, or coach that can help us when needed, and that we define what success looks like along the way. And that last one may very well be the most important. Too often we get caught in the trap of wanting to achieve our goal without putting in the effort or hard work necessary to complete it or see it through, expecting immediate success or change. Will power is the ability to say “no” to the things we know that can detract us from our goals or mission, and saying “yes” to the things that are harder but lead to the results we desire. How are you doing when it comes to will power? Are you paying the price or enjoying the benefits? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail. com and when we learn how to manage our will power, it really will be a better than good week.

recognizable around the world. M. Pibulsongkrimpud of Bangkok, Thailand, said, “Wolvereenies,” when he was shown a photo of the helmet. The old Los Angeles Rams helmets, yellow-gold on dark blue, were exceptional. The origin of the ram horn design is a good story. “In 1948, halfback Fred Gehrke painted horns on the Rams’ helmets, making the first modern helmet emblem in pro football.” Cleveland didn’t get the memo. The Browns are the only team in the NFL with nothing on their helmets, other than a stripe. Pittsburgh has a logo on only one side — which is a good trivia question. The Seattle Seahawks have a great helmet logo. It reads from a distance, and it is an effective truncation. Compare it to the “busy” Washington State image, which tries to be both a roaring cougar and the school’s abbreviation. In other words, is it a floor wax or a dessert topping? For some reason, many of the schools that have the most impressive history, have helmets that are completely uninspired — starting with Penn State. They look like scout team helmets. Poor Penn State. It’s
more like State Pen these days. The “Ns” on Nebraska’s helmets were purchased at a Lincoln hardware store. Oklahoma experimented with an italic “OU” for a while, but they have gone back to dullsville. Still, the interlocking “OU” is better than that “N.” Some schools are using new matte helmets. Notre Dame’s will blind you. Maybe that’s the plan. The least of the least? Alabama, currently ranked number one. Each helmet is different, and do you know why? Each player’s number is on his helmet. Louisiana State has “LSU” on its helmets. I guess they’ve never heard of kerning, which is “the process of adjusting the spacing between characters.” Beneath “LSU” is an impossible-to-read tiger head, so LSU makes it in two of my categories: worst and least inspired. Pinth-Garnell said, “There, now, that wasn’t so good, was it?” Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast. net
QUESTION OF THE WEEK
When do you start holiday shopping? With the holidays approaching fast, Colorado Community Media went to The Parker Shoppes in Parker to ask: When do you start your holiday shopping?
“I start as early as I can. The problem is, I hide the presents and don’t find them until March. My husband waits until Christmas Eve.” — Janeen Lebkuecher, Parker
“I feel like I usually start December 23rd. It’s just procrastinating. I don’t enjoy holiday shopping. I put if off and make it even worse.” — Mike Matthews, Denver
“Usually in the middle of October, so there is not so much stress as it gets closer to Christmas.” — Nancy Browning, Castle Pines
“I try to shop every day throughout the year … you find the most interesting and eclectic things if you don’t have a list you’re trying to satisfy.” — Louise Sparks, Denver
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Energy big in state’s economy We need to escape this cycle of government budget crises. It’s time for a “grand bargain” to reform entitlements and taxes. Not all business segments are taxed fairly. The average effective tax rate for S&P companies was 29 percent over the past five years, but energy companies paid an average of 37 percent. Any tax reform needs to reflect these differences. Unfortunately, we’ve heard calls to shut energy “loopholes,” which would raise energy

ranks as the nation’s 28th busiest airport in overall operations. Drexler coordinates the noise roundtable meetings, which take place once a month at the Ramada Hotel adjacent to the airport. Roundtable participants include local elected officials, appointed representatives from the community, airport staff, the Federal Aviation Administration, Colorado Department of Transportation (Aeronautics Division) and airport users. Centennial City Councilman Keith Gardner represents the city at roundtable meetings. The Airport Authority contributed $75,000 to the noise monitor project, and Drexler estimates it will cost about $100,000 a year to operate program. “The monitors all have weather stations that record wind speed and wind direction too,” Drexler said. Using radar data airport officials get from the FAA, information from the monitors will allow Drexler to correlate a “sound event” with a radar track of a specific aircraft. “That means monitors won’t mistake noise from passing vehicles for aircraft noise,” he said. Six of the monitors are powered by solar panels, six by electricity. In Centennial, there’s a monitor at Hunter’s Hill. Several are set up on airport property; one is located in Cherry Creek State Park; others are in Lone Tree, Castle Rock, Parker and Aurora. Airport officials are already receiving information from the monitors and plan to make the data available online beginning sometime in early January. Surrounded by 23 business parks, thousands of homes and located a scant 13 miles from downtown Denver, the airport’s motto is: “Global reach, local access.” When it opened on May 13, 1967, on 1,400 acres in unincorporated Arapahoe County, the facility was called the Arapahoe County Airport. It was renamed Centennial Airport in 1984. Today, its three runways, ranging in length from 4,800 feet to 10,000 feet, accommodate private and charter air traffic. According to a study released in October by the Colorado Division of Aeronau-

Nov. 18 FuNdraisiNG luNcheoN. The South Metro Health Alliance plans its first membership and recognition fundraising luncheon from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Nov. 18 at The Franciscan Event Center in Centennial. Tickets are $30. At the luncheon, the health alliance will honor Centura Health, Doctors Care, Greenwood Pediatrics, Dr. Ellen Burkett, and the SMHA Health Information Exchange Task Force, for their work and leadership in health information technology. Also recognized will be outgoing founders, in particular board directors Linda Comeaux of Arapahoe Community College, Lisa Traudt of Arapahoe/Douglas Mental Health Network, and Maria Pearson, community representative. Alliance volunteers who have given of their time to further the group’s mission also will be honored. Reservations tics, the airport contributes — directly and indirectly — an estimated $1.3 billion annually to the local economy. The airport’s busiest year was 1998, when more than 466,000 takeoffs and landings were logged. In 2012, Centennial registered 308,173 operations. “Summer is the busiest time of the year,” said Drexler. “More people are out flying. There’s more training aircraft operating.” In 2012, the airport logged about 2,000 noise complaints. “This year, we are close to 3,000 (complaints) already and are probably on track for 3,500,” Drexler said. Because aircraft have to both land and take off into the wind, bad weather tends to spur more noise complaints. “Bad weather impacts our runways operations,” Drexler said. “Instead of taking off to the south, when weather rolls in, aircraft usually have to take off to the north, where there’s a denser population in cities like Centennial and Greenwood Village.” Most noise complaints come in via the airport’s website. There’s also a “noise line” — 303-790-4709 — and Drexler said people often contact him directly with complaints. “Before the monitors went in, complaints were our only basis in determining noise issues,” said Drexler. “The monitors will help us identify more clearly noise impacts and help us understand if our voluntary noise abatement guidelines are working — and where we need to make adjustments.” Drexler said the largest aircraft currently flying into the airport is an Embraer Lineage 1000, a two-engine luxury jet that can carry up to 30 passengers. In the past, most noise complaints were generated by “the older jets,” Drexler said. “Now they tend to center around helicopters and older prop planes. The newer jets are much quieter.” Aircraft noise, he explained, often depends “on an individual aircraft’s configurations and settings. But there are some locations, like right off the end of the runway, where there is very little we can do” about noise. Drexler said airport officials often talk to pilots about “voluntary noise guidelines” and “where the noise-sensitive areas are located. The pilot community has always been very responsive,” he said. “They want to be good neighbors and definitely don’t want to see the airport go away.”
to 20 percent. “This year, we’ve had a pretty heavy turnout in terms of people dropping off ballots (at the Civic Center),” she said. With four council seats and the mayor’s job up for grabs — as well as the “2G” ballot initiative — she predicted voter turnout could eclipse 40 percent. In a little more than two years, another Centennial city employee will assume the mantle of longest-tenured employee. That’s because Madison plans to retire on Dec. 1, 2015. “I’ve already looked at the calendar,” she said. “It’s a Tuesday. I’ll be 66. It’ll be right after the election. And that’s when I am going to go.”

Change on tap for Lone Tree golf clubhouse New hospitality arm aims for improved operations
‘For the foreseeable

future, the building
jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com The Lone Tree Golf Club and Hotel is teeing up for some significant changes. Course owner South Suburban Parks and Recreation District has added a hospitality department, and its main focus is Lone Tree’s public golf facility. The change comes two years after several exasperated Lone Tree residents suggested the city secede from South Suburban, citing problems with the golf course and other district-managed city facilities. Under the direction of hospitality director Jay Dikeman, the large, 1980s-era clubhouse around which the city developed has gotten a thorough scrubbing. New carpet is planned for its 15 hotel rooms, interviews are under way for a highly skilled chef, and construction starts next month on an outdoor wedding site. “The setting is of course absolutely stunning,” Dikeman said, “and the space here is very wonderful. The demographic around the physical building, if we provide a good enough product, is certainly strong enough to support us. We just have to come up with a concept, and make it good enough for everybody to want to be here.” Dikeman’s responsibilities and the hospitality department’s territory extends beyond Lone Tree to include South Suburban’s other restaurants, including The Club restaurant at Centennial’s South Suburban Golf Course, the Avalanche Grill at Centennial’s Family Sports Center and the Centennial Grill at the Littleton Golf and Tennis Club. “The goal is to improve our operation, both in terms of service and revenue,” South Suburban executive director Dave Lorenz said. “All the restaurants are under one roof, so we have consistency. When you go to the South Suburban Golf Course
will stay the same. But I know there’s been conversation about the facility needing, and the community wanting, a major renovation here.’ Jay Dikeman restaurant or Avalanche Grill, you’ll get the same hamburger, French fries and service in terms of quality.” Lorenz considered recommendations made in 2012 by both frustrated residents and city officials to turn clubhouse operations over to a private management company. “We could never agree on what we wanted or what they were willing to provide,” he said of those negotiations. “So I recommended to the board we hire our own hospitality director.” Dikeman’s hospitality industry experience began in 1976, including employment at well-reputed, full-service chains like the Hilton, Marriott and Radisson hotels. In Lone Tree, he aims to capitalize on its already established wedding services with construction of an outdoor wedding venue, including a garden, pergola and small stage. Plans call for opening the area
Jay Dikeman, manager of South Suburban’s newly created hospitality department, sits in front of the Lone Tree Golf Clubhouse main floor fireplace. Photo by Jane Reuter in 2014. “We really want to make our product different from other products around,” he said. “The wedding garden will be beautiful and a differentiator from other golf courses and hotels in the community that will make (the clubhouse) even more popular for weddings.” A sound barrier also is planned on the clubhouse’s main level to block noise from the ground-level Out of Bounds Grill. A permanent awning over the north deck, and a new lighting system in the banquet areas, also are planned. The selection process for a new chef is nearly complete.
“One of the requirements is they have to be very high end,” Dikeman said. “They’ll be based here, but also will work with the other facilities. “Right now, the demand for the grill area is low in the evenings. We’re absolutely going to cater to the golfers, but also focus on how to build that evening business.” An extensive overhaul of the building is not in the near-term plans. “For the foreseeable future, the building will stay the same,” Dikeman said. “But I know there’s been conversation about the facility needing, and the community wanting, a major renovation here.”

‘Walking with the Dead’ is creepy tour Museum event blends facts with frights By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com On a dark and stormy night, the dead walked the grounds of Littleton Museum. OK, none of that was true. It was the end of a glorious fall day Oct. 26, and they were just museum volunteers portraying characters long gone by during the “Walking with the Dead” tour of the 1860s farm. They brought to life the likes of Sleepy Hollow’s Ichabod Crane and the Fox sisters, who inadvertently created the spiritualism movement in the 1840s by convincing people they could communicate with their dead loved ones — for a price, of course. “Even when the Fox sisters admitted it was a hoax, people still believed,” said tour guide Jennifer Barnett. Then there were local charlatans like undertaker E.P. McGovern, who was hired in 1893 to remove the remains from what was then a cemetery to make way for what is now Denver’s Cheesman Park. He was paid $1.90 a body, and soon realized he could make more money by chopping up adults and placing their pieces in child-size coffins. “It was a messy process,” said guide Jennifer Woeste. According to the Legends of America
Littleton Museum volunteers conduct a “seance” dressed as the Fox sisters, who sparked the spiritualist movement in the 1840s by tricking people into believing they could contact the ghosts of dead loved ones. Photo by Jennifer Smith website, neighbors began to report sad and confused looking spirits knocking at their doors and windows, and moans coming from the park. It’s said that these restless spirits remain today, with many visitors experiencing feelings of unexplainable sad
ness and hearing whispering voices and moans. What’s for sure, though, is that the job was never finished, and skeletons still occasionally turn up. Cheesmanpark.net says it’s likely there are still thousands below the
surface. The “ghost” of a wealthy but stranded traveler who was murdered in Franktown in 1871 also visited the museum during the tour. It perhaps was looking for two of the men who murdered him in a cabin quite similar to the museum’s 1860s log cabin, where Woeste told his story. The MacIntyre family graciously took the traveler in, fed him a hearty stew and then as he slept, stabbed him to death and robbed him. Several days later, a posse seized the elder McIntyre and his two sons after finding the dead man’s body. The sons confessed to the killing and told the posse their father was not involved. But only one son was hanged, as the other had slipped away with his father, never to be seen again. The tour was educational as well as eerie. A lesson on death photography revealed that glycerin could be used to plump up a deflating eyeball, and glue applied to keep the lids open. But the demonstration went awry when the photographer tried to show the visitors how to insert a spoon into the deceased’s eyes to hold them open, and his very much alive assistant suddenly became uncooperative. Before the evening was over, visitors would encounter a roaming scarecrow, gates dangling from trees and other oddities. “Pranks were enormously popular,” said Woeste.

For Daniel Ritchie, it’s girl’s night out

Flying DISCS, flying DOGS
Champions converge on Clement Park By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Dozens of doggies from around the country converged on Clement Park over the Oct. 26-27 weekend for the Final UFO Major, hosted for the first time by Colorado Disc Dogs. They competed in levels from simple toss and catch all the way up to freestyle, where the pooches and their people perform choreographed routines, showing off their signature moves. In honor of Halloween, there was even a doggie costume contest and trick-or-treating among sponsoring vendors. Colorado Disc Dogs was founded in 1994 and welcomes new members, even hosting a training event every spring. “It is one of the biggest and most successful disc dog clubs in the world,” according to the UFO website. “Teams from the club are always in the top of the standings at every event they participate in, judges from the club are highly sought for their experience and skills, and club events are heavily attended all year long.”
For a suit-and-tie CEO of the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, Daniel Ritchie makes a handsome woman. And he proved just how fetching he can be in a blingy ball gown during “Theatre Threads,” a costume department fashion show featuring models from the DCPA’s financial and emotional support group. As an unadvertised final entry in the fashion show, Ritchie shuffled to the microphone where 9News entertainment editor Kirk Montgomery was lending emcee duties. Much to the delight of the lunching crowd, Ritchie sported a Texas-sized blond wig, full makeup, false eyelashes, figurehugging bedazzled gown, feather stole, full-length black gloves and black patent open-toe heels. In a twisted way, he looked hot! Ritchie was promoting “The Legend of Georgia McBride,” which plays in the Ricketson Theatre from Jan. 10 to Feb. 23. “We didn’t have costumes yet so we hired a professional drag queen, and he worked with Dan on the outfit,” said Alexandra Griesmer, public relations and promotions manager for the Denver Center Theatre Company. “(Ritchie) was such a great sport — didn’t take much convincing!” Ritchie said his gender-bender experience lent him more empathy toward females. “I learned that high heels are risky,” Ritchie said while Montgomery, dressed as one of the Three Musketeers, doubled over in laughter. “I was surprised to learn what you do every day. My respect is even higher (for women).” The play is about a straight young man who unexpectedly takes a dip into the world of drag, Ritchie said. “I didn’t know much about being a woman, so I thought I should learn firsthand.” Denver Center Alliance’s Theatre Threads is a tribute to the talent and passion of the models and backstage stars, Denver Center Theatre Company’s costume department. Proceeds support the Arts in Education program, which allows more than 50,000 students the opportunity to experience live theater this academic year.
The incredible shrinking anchor Jeff Hill and his dog Enzo were in the Halloween spirit as they practiced Oct. 25 at Clement Park for the Colorado Disc Dog championships. The pair traveled all the way from their home in California to compete.
Have you seen 9News entertainment anchor Kirk Montgomery lately? Rather, have you seen what’s left of him? His cheeks are no longer “cherubbed,” and his torso is oh so trim. I caught his act last week, and couldn’t help asking Montgomery the secret to his slimmed-down success. “I downloaded a free app (My Plate from www.livestrong.com) and I’ve been counting calories,” he told me. “I input the good the bad and the ugly — and just getting into the habit of doing that was an eye-opener. I’ve tried to stay around 1,500 (calories consumed) a day. Some days are lower, some higher, but I’ve lost weight before — the goal this time is to keep it off.”

Ceramics offered at one-day sale Stoneware ideal for home use or holiday gifts By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Ceramic art is an ancient craft, dating back to B.C. days, but it is still a satisfying outlet for creative people and contemporary pottery is a desired addition to many homes. Eight local potters who met in Sally Burns’ Monday class at Goodson Recreation Center have organized their second pottery sale and chosen a group name: Clay Crafters. (Burns has also taught at the Cheyenne Studio at Highlands Ranch’s Southridge
Parker
Recreation Center.) Participants are: Diane Gaither, three years’ experience; Barb Grohoski, 30-plus years; Peg Redding, four-plus years; Don Ryan, 30-plus years; Kathryn Schindler, 30-plus years; Matthew Hammer, 28-plus years; Cathy Benn, 10-plus years; and Cindy Ellingboe, eight years. (Hammer and Gaither are not in the current class but are group members.) Gaither is also a beekeeper and will have some of her honey for sale. They will exhibit handmade functional and decorative stoneware, including some Raku pieces and sculpture — ideal for home use or for holiday gifts.
The sale will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Nov. 9 at the Heritage Greens Community Room (next to the pool). The address is 4818 E. Links Circle, Centennial.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) This could be a good time to share some of your plans with those closest to you. Their comments could give you some added insight into how you might accomplish your goals. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) An attack of self-doubt might be unsettling for the usually super-assured Feline. But it could be your inner voice telling you to hold off implementing your plans until you’ve reassessed them. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) This is a great time for you to reward yourself for all your hard work by taking a trip you haven’t spent months carefully planning, to somewhere you never thought you’d be going. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Some misunderstandings resist being resolved. But your sincerity in wanting to soothe those hurt feelings wins the day. By month’s end, that relationship should begin to show signs of healing. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) A hectic job schedule begins to ease just in time to blow off all that workgenerated steam on Halloween. A family situation runs into an unexpected complication.

Fortunately, it lifts by week’s end, in time to make an informed decision. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) A surprise trip early in the week could lead to other unexpected offers when you return.

Lions score win over Kennedy Littleton victory keeps football playoff hopes alive By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Littleton gave Lions fans a lot to cheer about as the football team combined a balanced attack and a stingy defense to post a 21-3 win over Kennedy on Oct. 25, which was senior night and the final home game of the season. “This was a good game for our kids and it shows them that, if we work hard, we get better every week,” Littleton coach Kurt Krantz said after the game. “It is important to finish strong and this is a step in that direction. The victory raised the Lions’ season mark to 4-5 and at least gave them an outside chance to make the Class 4A playoffs, provided they close out the season Oct. 31 with a win over Dakota Ridge. Littleton faces a challenge against the Eagles as they are second in the league with a 6-3 record. Statistics show the Eagles like to throw the ball, as quarterback Braxton Thais has completed 144 of 231 passes for 2,031 yards and 20 touchdowns. However, they also have a strong game with Aaron Nelson as the leader, as he has carried 191 times for 1,004 yards and 17 touchdowns. The game will be played at 6 p.m. Oct. 31 in Trailblazer Stadium in Jefferson County. On Oct. 25, Littleton kicked off to Kennedy, stopped the Commanders and forced a punt. The Lions then mounted a sustained drive and scored a touchdown on a one-yard run by Austin Sonju. The extra point try failed, so the score was 6-0 with 4:51 left in the first quarter. Kennedy rebounded with a drive that
Littleton’s Austin Sonju stiff-arms a Kennedy defender during the Oct. 25 game. Sonju gained 84 yards rushing and scored a touchdown to help the Lions win, 21-3. Photo by Tom Munds took them to the Lions’ nine-yard line. However, penalties and a sack pushed the Commanders back so they finally kicked a 23-yard field goal near the end of the quarter to make the score 6-3 at halftime. Littleton took the second-half kickoff and launched another drive. The big play was a long pass from Nick McNamee to Austin Biebar that took the ball to the
Kennedy six-yard line. The same duo then teamed up for an aerial touchdown play. The two-point conversion was good so the score was 14-3 early in the third quarter. Later in the third period, the Lions struck again. The 60-yard drive culminated with an eight-yard run by Noah McGhee. The extra point was good and the Lions won the game 21-3, since there was no
scoring in the final quarter. “Our kids played hard. We have about 20 seniors on the team, it was their last game and all our guys wanted the win for them,” the coach said. Senior McNamee said the Lions’ game plan was to use a strong running game to set up the passes. “We ran plays hard inside the tackles and usually gained yardage,” the quarterback said. “Running the ball set up our bootleg passes that helped us move the ball.” He said this personally was an emotional game since it was the last time he would play high school football in front of the home crowd. “We have worked hard, it has been a pretty good season and tonight’s win was sweet,” he said. “It helps our record and gives us at least a small chance to get into the state playoffs as we go into the last game of the regular season.” McNamee finished the night completing 10 of 14 passes for 161 yards, and his longest of the night was 67 yards. He passed for a touchdown and he also rushed eight times for 20 yards. The running game was working as McGee carried 10 times for 86 yards and Sonju carried 19 times for 84 yards. Leading receivers included Tre Blake with four catches for 87 yards and Bieber with five catches for 69 yards. Defensively, the Lions held the Kennedy offense in check, giving up some yardage but no touchdowns. One of the defensive leaders was senior Sean Malloy. “Kennedy was a decent team and they fought hard the whole game,” he said after the game. “Like the other seniors, this was an emotional game for me. It was hard to be here tonight and to realize it is my final time to play on this field. We really wanted this game and it felt good to win tonight.”
Eagles post key football win Heritage’s last-minute score edges Trojans 21-14 By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com The Heritage High School football team literally waited to the last minute to win the Oct. 24 game as the Eagles scored a touchdown with nine seconds left on the clock to post a 21-14 victory over Fountain-Fort Carson. “We won by the skin of our teeth, which is how we have won four of our last five games,” Mike Griebel, Heritage coach, said after the game. “Our kids kept battling tonight and it finally paid off for us. We are a young team but we are growing up and our young pups are getting tougher, so we are a much better team now than at the state of the season. This win gives us a winning record and a better seeding in the upcoming playoffs.” The Eagles wrapped up the regular season with a 5-4 record, which includes a 4-2 league record. The Oct. 24 game was key because Heritage and the Trojans came into the contest tied for third in the Pioneer League. The Eagles win earned them undisputed possession of third place. It didn’t look great for Heritage in the early going Oct. 24 against Fountain-Fort Carson. Each team was able to move the ball at times, but neither team was unable to put together a sustained scoring drive, so the first quarter ended in a scoreless tie. Late in the second quarter, the Eagles drove sown, stalled on the nine-yard line, and Alex Null booted a field goal. But the lead didn’t last long as about 90 seconds later the Trojans scored on a 65-yard touchdown pass play. Fountain-Fort Carson got the ball back with 1:55 left on the clock and scored a touchdown with 15 seconds left in the half.
Heritage came back late in the third period and kicked a field goal to make the score 14-6 going into the final period. The Eagles put together a solid drive, Rob Sublette ran the ball in for a touchdown and quarterback Mikey Grieble passed to Dalton Thorpe for the two-point conversion to tie the score. After the kickoff, the Trojans had a third and a yard for a first down, but the Eagles stopped the runner in the backfield to force a punt. Heritage got the ball on their own 35yard line with 4:02 left in the game. They kept the ball on the ground, ate up yardage and took time off the clock. A draw play took the ball to the two-yard line with 18 seconds left in the game. Sublette took a handoff, got solid blocking and beat the defenders around the left end as he crossed into the end zone for the winning touchdown. The coach said the emotion shifted in favor of the Eagles at halftime. “This is senior night, the last game of the regular season,” Griebel said. “Our underclassmen got fired up and came out determined to do a better job so this would be a win for our seniors. It was a great victory for all our kids, our team and our school.” The Eagles used the ground game to their advantage. Quarterback Griebel was the No. 2 rusher as he carried 21 times for 101 yards. However, Sublette, a senior, was the rushing leader as he carried 21 times for 112 yards, caught one pass for 18 yards and scored two touchdowns. “The first half they came out fired up and we struggled a little,” he said after the game. “At halftime, we realized we had to take it to them. We just kept driving at them, they began to get tired and the holes kept getting bigger and bigger.” He said the winning touchdown came on an isolation play that had been working all game. “I got the ball and started left,” Sublette
Heritage back Rob Sublette (26) battled for yardage in the Oct. 24 game against the Trojans. Sublette scored two touchdowns to help the Eagles win the game, 21-14.

Scoring that touchdown is special and something I will always remember.” The Trojans moved the ball pretty well in the first half, but the Eagles tightened things down to keep them in check in the
second half. Andrew Schaffer and Kenton Hewitt each had 10 tackles while senior Steven Gray was the tackle leader with 19. “It was a tough night at first. They are a good team with big, strong kids and they had a bit of a size difference,” Gray, a senior, said after the game. “However, we played hard, we played fast and it paid for us.”
