Castle Rock Adventist Hospital has introduced new mammogram technology that will allow patients to receive a more complete view of their body in a relaxed atmosphere. The hospital’s new tomosynthesis machine (also known as 3D
mammography) is a new screening and diagnostic tool designed for early breast cancer detection that can be done in conjunction with a traditional 2D digital mammogram. The new technology is being made available to the public June 4. During the 3D part of the exam, the X-ray arm sweeps in a slight arc over a breast, taking multiple images. Then, a computer produces a 3D image of breast tissue in one-millimeter slices, providing greater visibility for the radiologist to see detail. The 3D images make it possible for a radiologist to view
for in the past, such as small asymmetries, will now be able to be detected right away. According to Phillips, the typical callback rate after mammograms is 10 percent to 12 percent. Studies show a reduction in callbacks of up to 40 percent with the new technology. “That callback is an extreme anxiety-provoking moment for women,” she said. Castle Rock Adventist will also be unveiling its new Sensory Suite, which allows patients to choose Hospital continues on Page 11

breast tissue during a screening and reduces the need for followup imaging. “When you open (the image) up and you can page through it, especially if the woman has really dense breast tissue, now you can see some of the masses and distortion and other things that can be signs of breast cancer,” said Dr. Jinnah Phillips, radiologist and women’s imaging specialist at Castle Rock Adventist Hospital. The new machine will go a long way in increasing doctors’ diagnostic confidence. Things that doctors would call patients back

Flagstone Elementary parents and students, following the removal of a second-grade teacher from their school, protested outside the Castle Rock elementary during morning student drop-off May 29. The parents are calling for the resignation of Principal Kelli Smith, under whom they said numerous teachers have left and staff morale has fallen. Teacher Heather Heintz reportedly was escorted out of Flagstone on May 28 by school administrators during school hours. Her family members said it followed a dispute with the principal. Protesting parents said that was the latest in a long series of problems. Heintz’s husband Brett and daughter were among those protesting. Protest continues on Page 11

Moore wrote a May 27 letter announcing his resignation to the Larkspur Elementary community, saying he had accepted a position at another school. “The students at LES are truly exceptional and I am so proud of what they are accomplishing each day,” Moore wrote. “I will forever treasure the relationships that I have built and will miss everyone that I had the privilege of working with.” Moore will return to teaching in the Douglas County School District, Principal continues on Page 11

Commissioners show support for energy development in state
MEET: LINDSEY FRIEDMAN
Staff report Douglas County’s board of commissioners has reaffirmed its support for “continued energy development that is responsible” in Colorado. In a resolution May 26, commissioners said they recognize the significance oil and natural gas development play in Colorado’s economy. “While we don’t have energy development in Douglas County, we have a lot of people who work for businesses dependent on it and who work in the energy industry and live in our communities, so we understand its importance to us,” Doug-
las County Commissioner Jill Repella said. At present, there are no requests for permits to pursue development in Douglas County, Repella said. The board of commissioners also reaffirmed its support for Colorado’s existing regulations and oversight for oil and natural gas development” “We are thrilled to see Douglas County get out in front with such a commonsense approach to what is a major statewide issue,” said Amy Sherman, chair of the Douglas County Energy Coalition. “Hopefully, this sets an example for other local governments around Colorado to do the same.”

Manager of Plum Creek Garden Market About me I’ve always loved to put together pots and flowers from my backyard. My husband Jeremy also owns a greenhouse, so we have that kind of background. We thought, we should have our own retail stand one of these days and there really wasn’t one down in this area. We used to sell to a nursery in this area, but they’re no longer here, so we felt like we could fill a void. This is our second year here in Castle Rock.
My passions Flowers and gardening. I love the outdoors obviously, being here in Colorado. The sun. We have two boys, so we’re very active there with sports and all of that as well.
Fun times When you have kids you don’t really have time for hobbies. We like to travel, cooking,

We don’t really have a lot of hobbies and things because we put a lot of time and effort into that — into the flowers. We also do the flower boxes in front of the businesses along Wilcox Street.
My favorite flower? I love black petunias.

Reaching the finish line quite a reward By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando@colorado communitymedia.com
HOMETOWN IMPRESSIONS Moments in time from our community
As the runners emerge from underneath the Plum Creek trail bridge and make their way down the home stretch of the course in Festival Park, they are greeted by family and friends. The sounds of clapping and cowbells ring out as they cross the electronically timed finish line. Their reward? A medal and the sense of accomplishment for finishing the half marathon through downtown Castle Rock on May 30. They sit and lie in the park grass, exhausted. The free water, orange slices and
Santiago’s burritos are a welcome treat. Some gulp down water as they fidget with iPods and ear buds. It’s high-fives and hugs for others. The hardcore go straight for their phones to check their official times on the race’s instantly updated app. More runners flood into the park — the stragglers now. An announcement is made, only five minutes away from the awards presentation. The times haven’t been printed and
posted on the large time board in the park yet. Those at the top of the time sheets huddle around for the announcements. Maybe they placed? “It’s a gorgeous morning here in Castle Rock. For those of you who did the Rock Challenge, a little bit of a tough climb but hope you enjoyed it. We’ve got some pretty fast times here,” said the voice over the loud speaker. “In second place, from Highlands Ranch, with a time of 52:29, lets hear it for Danette Goldhammer.” Cowbells and claps ring out again. “And our overall champion this year for the Rock Challenge, from Lone Tree with a time of 51:57, give it up for Amy Peck.” The first- and second place finishers in
the women’s division turn out to be friends —sharing bottles of water and showing their medals off to friends. “I was my second time (running in the Castle Rock race) and her first time,” Goldhammer said. “I’ve done a couple already this year, but it was a beautiful day and a great way to kick off the season.” The top finishers aren’t the only training partners enjoying the post-race celebration. “I didn’t run with her today, but she’s my training partner,” said Jen Desbois holding her baby, Violet. “Usually when I run, I push her in the stroller.” With Violet’s help, mom managed a third-place finish in the 5-mile family run.

Hopes for economic boost haven’t panned out as expected By Christopher S. Rugaber Associated Press
If there was one thing most economists agreed on at the start of the year, it was this: Plunging oil prices would boost the U.S. economy. It hasn’t worked out that way. The economy is thought to have shrunk in the January-March quarter and may barely grow for the first half of 2015 — thanks in part to sharp cuts in energy drilling. And despite their savings at the gas pump, consumers have slowed rather than increased their spending. At $2.74 a gallon, the average price of gas nationwide is nearly $1 lower than it was a year ago. In January, the average briefly reached $2.03, the lowest in five years. Cheaper oil and gas had been expected to turbocharge spending and drive growth, more than making up for any economic damage caused by cutbacks in the U.S. oil patch. Consider what Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen said in December: Lower gas prices, Yellen declared, are “certainly good for families. ... It’s like a tax cut that boosts their spending power.” Other experts were more direct: “Lower oil prices are an unambiguous plus for the U.S. economy,” Chris Lafakis, an economist at Moody’s Analytics, wrote in January. So what did they get wrong? It turns out that the economic effects of lower energy prices have evolved since the Great Recession. Corporate spending on drill rigs, steel piping for wells and railcars to transport oil has become an increasingly vital driver of economic growth. So when oil prices fall and energy companies retrench, the economy suffers. The drilling boom that erupted in 2008 has boosted U.S. oil production nearly 75 percent and natural gas 30 percent and made the United States the world’s largest combined producer of oil and natural gas. Energy production contributes about 2 percent to economic output, up from less than 1 percent in 2000. Yet in recent months, industry activity has dropped more sharply than predicted. “So far, it is fair to say that we have been hurt more than helped,” Lafakis acknowledges now.
Cutbacks ripple outward
During their policy meeting in April,
Fed officials grappled with the changing impact of cheaper oil, according to minutes of the meeting released in late May. Several policymakers said the economic drag from drilling cutbacks could be “larger and longer-lasting than previously anticipated.” They also worried that the weakness in consumer spending, despite cheaper gas, suggested that Americans might generally be more reluctant to spend than assumed. Some economists are reconsidering assumptions they use to forecast the economy. “The benefit of lower oil prices is less pronounced than, say, 10 years ago,” says Jim Burkhard, a researcher at IHS Energy. “You’re taking a big engine of economic activity and cutting it sharply.” Lafakis and many others still expect consumers to spend much of their savings from cheaper gas, powering faster growth in the second half of the year. Economists say it can take up to six months for people to spend unexpected windfalls. But any gains won’t likely be enough to counter the anemic start to the year. Moody’s Analytics expects the economy to expand just 2.6 percent this year, down from an earlier forecast of 3.3 percent. (The downgrade is also due in part to a stronger U.S. dollar, which has depressed exports.) For families, the drop in gas prices was an unexpected gift. The government has estimated that cheaper gas will save a typical household $675 this year. Yet still scarred by the recession, many remain reluctant to spend freely. Analysts also note that Americans are less likely to spend extra money if they think the gain is temporary. “Consumers have been very reluctant to spend (savings from cheaper gas), because they view that as fleeting,” says Greg McBride, chief financial analyst at Bankrate.com. Consumer spending rose at an annual rate of just 1.9 percent in the first quarter, compared with the previous quarter’s 4.4 percent. Much of the cash saved at the gas pump was put away: The U.S. savings rate reached its highest point in more than two years. Walmart and Target have confirmed that their sales aren’t getting much lift from cheaper gas. For Vince Cimilluca, a 28-year-old video editor in Edison, New Jersey, lower gas prices haven’t changed his finances much. He’s struggling to pay $800 a month in student debt while saving for a home. He’s seen gas prices gyrate and doesn’t trust they’ll stay low. “The extra money that I have, I save,” Cimilluca says.
For the economy, the technological breakthroughs that allowed the energy industry to power growth now help explain the slowdown. As the 2008-09 recession ended, companies used hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, to unlock underground reserves. Oil, at $100 a barrel or more, made such efforts profitable. Jim Burkhard of IHS Energy estimates that U.S. and Canadian energy companies increased investment in production from $98 billion in 2005 to $363 billion last year. U.S. oil and gas jobs nearly doubled to 537,000. In addition, jobs were added at steel mills, at sand pits to process sand for fracking and at restaurants and service companies in areas with newfound oil and gas fields, like North Dakota and Pennsylvania.
Sudden reversal
But the industry’s breakneck growth was thrown into reverse by a 50 percent drop in oil prices from June through January. CEO Doug Suttles of Encana Corp., a Canadian-based driller that operates in the United States, says the pullback in drilling “happened more rapidly than I’ve seen in 32 years.” As recently as December, Suttles says, experts had forecast that the number of rigs would drop by a third in the spring from a year earlier. Instead, it’s plunged by more than half, according to Baker Hughes, an oilfield services firm. That’s led companies like U.S. Steel to temporarily close factories that make the steel pipe used in oil wells. Texasbased Superior Silica Sands, which makes fracking sand, has canceled the building of a factory and has slashed capital spending plans. Investment in wells and production facilities collapsed nearly 50 percent last quarter, the government says, and cut the quarter’s annual economic growth by three-quarters of a percentage point. Goldman Sachs estimates that three jobs will be lost in other industries for every position shed by energy companies as laid-off workers spend less. That trend is painfully evident in Texas, which lost 25,400 jobs in March, the most since 2009. Many were in mining, which includes oil and gas. But most of the losses were indirect: As laidoff workers cut spending, retailers cut 6,600 jobs. Cheaper gas has hardly been a comfort to Orlando Garza, 34, who lives near Corpus Christi, Texas, and was laid off from his job in February as a well site leader. “I’ve had to cut back tremendously,” Garza says. “I tell my kids, `I don’t have a job, so I can’t buy it.’”

High school grads leave with 1,061 college credits Colorado Early Colleges launches its first Douglas County senior class By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Colorado Early Colleges Douglas County graduated its first class during a May 29 ceremony at Parker’s Crossroads Community Church. The 31 graduating students earned a collective 1,061 credits toward college. The charter high school that focuses on earning college credits opened in August 2014, and it is the first of its kind in Douglas County, although it is the third Colorado Early Colleges campus. The credits recent graduates earned “will save them over $500,000 in future tuition dollars,” said John Etzell, head of the school. “We think that’s a good way to spend the taxpayer dollar.” Founder Keith King, a former state senator and Colorado Springs City Council member, was moved to start Colorado Early Colleges by what he saw as a lack of post-secondary education options. The public, tuition-free schools in Colorado Springs, Fort Collins and Parker offer college-bound students and those who might not otherwise have considered college the opportunity to earn associate degrees and concurrent enrollment credits. “You students are graduating from a high school with many of you having an associate’s degree,” said King, who spoke at the graduation. “(You) have proven it

Salutatorian Aaron Murphy graduated with 68 college credits. “I’ve heard the class starting out as freshmen might even be able to do bachelor’s degrees,” Murphy said in his speech. “To be able to do that in high school without the enormous cost is quite frankly amazing.” Honors graduate Anna Neuheardt, who also spoke at the ceremony, graduated with 73 credits and a Daniels Fund scholarship. She urged fellow graduates to figure out what they want, then look for and consider all open doors. “When you cannot find a door or the door you find does not open, break out a chainsaw and make your own door,” she said. The Parker campus of Colorado Early Colleges is southeast of Lincoln Avenue and Parker Road. About 350 students are enrolled there.

Parker man plays big role in space launch After successful mission, Shane Roskie celebrates at home with friends By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com With a sense of wonder still well intact, Shane Roskie thanks his lucky stars for getting to live out his childhood dream everyday. The Parker resident and 30-year veteran at Lockheed Martin admits that he still pinches himself on occasion. It’s easy to see why. He played a lead role in the December launch of the Orion Spacecraft from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
What he did As the Orion launch conductor, it is his job to make sure every guidance, control and instrumentation system has been correctly tested and configured before a launch takes place. “I’m the person that gives the final ‘go’ to the launch director to proceed with a launch,” Roskie said, referring to the person who conRoskie ducts the actual countdown. Along with a team of engineers, he then reviews flight data and makes any necessary changes to the design before the next launch. He is already working on Orion’s second mission — known as exploration mission 1, or EM1 — which could happen as early as 2018.
The mission The objective of the unmanned December launch was to test the critical systems on the craft and determine whether major components are working properly. That includes, for example, an analysis of the heat shield’s performance upon re-entry, the functionality of the guidance system and the capsule’s capability to withstand a splash landing.
The Orion crew module is moved by a crane after a splash-down in the Pacific Ocean. Photo by NASA/Cory Huston The ultimate goal of Orion is to “push the technological envelope” for the United States and, ideally, shuttle astronauts on missions to and from Mars, said Roskie, whose title is Orion test engineering and operations senior manager. It’s important for today’s students to gain the knowledge necessary to carry space travel into the future, he said.
Friends, family and fun stories Roughly five months after his return to Colorado, Roskie finally had a chance to settle down and catch up with old friends. He spent the better part of last year in Florida making preparations, and several months back and
forth before that. He’s glad to be back, and his loved ones are glad to have him. Reggie Fontenot, one of the many friends at a May 16 party thrown in Roskie’s honor, said he was eager to hear stories from his friend and view behind-thescenes photos and videos. Mostly, he wanted to mark more than two years of hard work, which culminated in a career milestone for Roskie. “He’s just such a low-key guy, a ranch boy from Wyoming,” Fontenot said. “He never gives himself credit.” Roskie, 57, said he was “astounded” by the national and international support for the
Orion mission, including encouraging notes from retired scientists, teachers and NASA execs. The local support, he said, was particularly touching.
Living out a dream
Roskie grew up watching the Apollo missions play out on television and knew early on that he wanted to work in aerospace. He said he thoroughly enjoys his job and is thankful that people recognize its worth. “It still gets me excited,” Roskie said. “It’s a very tough, demanding, complex industry, but the rewards are enormous — if everything works right. This one (Orion) flew perfectly.”

Reading helps you stay at top of game So the other day I saw a statistic that caught my attention: “Data shows that the population between the ages of 19 and 30 have only read one book in the past 12 months, and that book was Facebook.” Now obviously this is not true — it was just someone trying to make a point and having some fun with our addiction to social media. However, we all know there is a little truth in humor sometimes, and I could also sense the presenter’s sadness over what he perceived as a decline in the reading of books. With such immediate access to information, it is so easy to find links to articles, magazines, blogs and other short-form content that we can see how some may feel like books are getting the short end of our attention span. For some of us, time compression can be an issue. Many of us have such a hard time keeping up with our job, multiple jobs, kids, spouses, chores and our workouts that we must seek bite-sized information to scratch our reading itch. So when we couple timemanagement issues with a need for instant gratification and shorter attention spans, it is easy to buy into the position that the reading of books has fallen way down on the priority list. There is a distinction. No one is saying that people aren’t reading anymore; the truth is, we are creating and consuming information at an unbelievable and faster rate than at any time in history. It is just that the perception for some people is that even with e-readers,
iPads, tablets and smart phones, we have forgotten just how important it is, and how awesome it is, to simply read a book as we get caught up in social media, games and other apps. The summer is upon us, and I know for many of you this is the time where you get Michael Norton a lot of your reading in, specifically books. And WINNING although I enjoyed the WORDS presenter’s comedic and satirical approach to people not reading as many books as they should, I would say that many of us still enjoy a good book, especially on the beach or on vacation somewhere. For me, I always have a book in my hand, whether I am on an airplane for a business trip, in the mountains, or on a beach anywhere. And I typically alternate between the types of books I read, which include faith-based, business, history, biography and even fiction from time to time. And even though I do believe most of us still enjoy reading a good book and include it as a part of our overall personal or professional development or simply because we have a love of reading, I have seen a shift away from reading while I am traveling. It seems that lately I see more people playing games
on their devices or they are consumed with working while on the airplane as opposed to reading. I used to love when I would look around the airplane and see the majority of people with their heads down and reading a book. As a matter of fact this is where I used to get great ideas and recommendations for the next books I would be reading. What are you reading these days? Are you reading mostly online articles, blogs and posts? Are you more of a newspaper or magazine person? Are you someone who prefers and enjoys audio books? Or maybe you are someone who just can’t get enough information and takes advantage of books as well as all of the other media listed above. Zig Ziglar was a voracious reader, and probably had a lot to do with my own reading habits and inspiration. Zig used to say it this way, “Every day I read the newspaper and the Bible, this way I know what both sides are up to.” I would love to hear all about your reading habits and any suggestions and recommendations for books that I might read this summer. And if you would like my reading list, please send me an email at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we include reading in any way shape or form, 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.
Look at the time — it’s time for a change It wasn’t love at first sight. Or second, third, fourth or fifth. Maybe 10th. She says that I frowned at her, the first time I saw her. I say I squinted. There is a big difference. I was just about to give an oil painting demonstration. She looked like someone who was on her way to a State Farm seminar. That’s why I squinted. I was very suspicious. Of course, I have improved this narrative several times in the years since we met. Now I get a fever when she pulls up in the driveway. I have never been around someone I have this much in common with, except myself. It’s uncanny. Even though we have a startling number of opinions and preferences in common, about things like comedy clubs, Wal-Mart and Pearl Bailey, lucky for her she is not a replica in disposition. She is kind and patient and tolerant. A good friend once said that he was glad there is one of me, “But I am glad there are not two of you.” I have to admit that I would have a difficult time being around me, if I had a choice. As it is, that’s me in the mirror every day. I prefer my dog to most people, and generally feel like I need to be visited by three ghosts, and be unscrooged. But this is not a love story. It’s a reminder,
Craig Marshall Smith
QUIET DESPERATION
I guess, to myself and to anyone who might be in the same boat, to be honest about yourself. And to be willing to change. That’s one of the hardest things to do, and generally it cannot be done without help. Another very hard thing to do is to ask for help. When was the last time you asked for help? Other than
with opening a pickle jar? Henry David Thoreau, who gave this column its “Quiet Desperation” title, said, “Things do not change: We change.” I think I need to make a few more. My father quit smoking overnight. He smoked all the way through World War II, and for years and years after that. At the time I didn’t think quitting was a big deal. Everyone smoked back then. Maybe you are old enough to remember Arnold Palmer carefully placing his cigarette on the green before putting in the television commercials promoting his favorite brand (L&M’s).
The warnings and consequences of smoking weren’t all over the place when my father quit. If I had known, I would have congratulated him right then. That took years. The changes I think I need to make won’t be noticed, probably, by anyone else but me — and that will be enough. I am an old dog, and I know it. But my life in a virtual Thoreau cabin gives me plenty of time to contemplate, so maybe I can do this. Changing some things is easier than others. In baseball, there is a “change-up pitch.” The pitcher simply throws with the same release as a fastball, but actually throws with less velocity, hoping to confuse the hitter. Some politicians have changed their positions from one day to the next. In Woody Allen’s little-known film “Zelig,” Allen takes on the characteristics of anyone he is around. If he is around black jazz musicians, he becomes a black jazz musician. If he is around baseball players or physicians, he comes a baseball player or a physician. It happens immediately I won’t be able to make the changes I am talking about just by hanging around with people I admire and respect. Like the girlfriend I mentioned. Or maybe I will.

Senior agencies face growth in population Healthy, active and mentally sound retirement — what are you going to do? How are our communities planning and preparing to meet our lifestyle needs as we age? Our county’s leaders are working to find solutions for many challenges, including housing and transportation. Others are looking for ways to reach out in the community in order to provide the elements of living and aging well. Jodie McCann, the senior outreach coordinator for the Highlands Ranch Metro District, takes it one step further when she describes “more adults choosing to participate in this journey called aging, understanding that they can actually design an experience of their choosing and reawaken their hopes and dreams for this unique time in their lives.” And though entities like this have been around for a long time as social groups or as destinations, they are not your grandmother’s senior center anymore. In fact, in Douglas County, only the Parker Senior Center has a brick and mortar place to call its own. The Castle Rock Senior Center and the Highlands Ranch Senior Club have space in their local
recreation centers. Highlands Ranch Senior Outreach has an office in the Highlands Ranch Metro District building and the Lone Tree Living and Aging Well group has no place to plug in their cell phones. Creativity being the name of the game, each of these Naioma Walberg organizations works LIVING with their communities find venues for proAND AGING to gramming and events. Common themes WELL resound from all of these groups: the pursuit and implementation of programs and activities that promote socialization, education, recreation and health that assist individuals Walberg continues on Page 11

“I pay (Smith’s) salary and she’s just ruling with fear,” Brett Heintz said. “It’s time we changed it, and that’s what we’re here to do.” Heather Heintz said she is seeking legal counsel. “I have not threatened the health or safety of any person,” she said. “I have never engaged in any misconduct. Nothing I have ever done has compromised students, staff or family.” Smith did not return a call requesting comment. Douglas County School District spokeswoman Paula Hans commented on recent events at Flagstone by email. “We are always happy to meet with parents and discuss their concerns in an appropriate and productive manner,” she wrote. “We prefer to keep personnel matters confidential. However, escorting a staff member out of the building during the school day is always a last resort. If a staff member is unprofessional, we will take whatever action is necessary to keep students and staff safe.” Smith came to Flagstone as assistant principal in 2012 and became principal in
ing videos and photos, and project relaxing sounds while the air in the room is infused with a light, calming fragrance. Patients can choose from seaside, garden or waterfall. The new Sensory Suite is the first and only one in Colorado and is designed to soothe a woman’s senses to distract her from the discomfort or anxiety of a mammogram.
“There are women who just won’t come get a mammogram because they are so anxious about the whole process, so if you can do anything to take away some of that fear and anxiety then you might encourage some woman to come in when they may not otherwise,” Phillips said. The sensory suite also has an aroma function that will scent the room for the
patient. “The ladies I’ve worked with so far really like it. They like that they have something to look at during the procedure,” said Liz Lucero, a medical technologist at Castle Rock Adventist. “There’s a button you can press and it will release the scent. It puffs about every 15 minutes or so.”
has decided to return to the classroom next year,” she wrote. “We had hoped he would continue as the principal at Larkspur. However, we support all staff in finding the right position for them.” Moore said district leadership would work with both the staff and community in finding the school’s next principal. “I know that you will welcome a new
leader to Larkspur Elementary as openly as I was welcomed,” he wrote. The parent called for the no-confidence vote during a May 19 school meeting, and a petition calling for his removal was circulating among the school community. Douglas County School District leaders had defended Moore, saying he was doing his job and had the district’s support.
Parents’ concerns about Moore’s leadership were wide-ranging. Larkspur teachers gave low marks to school leadership during a recent state educators’ survey. Moore, a former assistant principal at two Highlands Ranch elementary schools, became Larkspur’s leader in fall 2014. Hans did not say at which school Moore will work in 2015.

in maintaining independence. Both Parker and Castle Rock add the much-needed community service of providing free and low-cost transportation. Lunch is a very important part of the activities. Focusing on the nutritious, Castle Rock in partnership with the Volunteers of America serves $2.50 lunches Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Parker serves a $4 lunch daily. The Highlands Ranch Senior Club has a once-a-month luncheon that adds entertainment with the cost of the $7 member/$9 non-member meal. Lone Tree provides an education element to the classy meal the Lone Tree Golf Club provides once a month for $12. As the aging population grows, these groups face some struggles. Lack of space and a need for more volunteers top the list. Funding comes in third and would actually go a long way in solving the first two — but where and how does that happen?

2013. Protesters waved signs called for Smith’s resignation. One student’s sign listed the names of some of the teachers who have left Flagstone since Smith arrived. Other signs declared support for the school’s teachers. “The parents here are tired of everything that’s going on at the school involving Kelli Smith,” said parent Nerissa Hendrickson, among the protesters. “The parents that try to speak out have been isolated and intimidated.” Barry Koch and his wife, who closed on a new home in the Cherry Creek district on May 28, are leaving Douglas County because of the issues at Flagstone. He said it’s symptomatic of what he sees happening throughout the district. “This whole district has become a PAC (political action committee) rather than a school district,” he said. “We’ve got 10 more years (of school) and we’re moving to Cherry Creek because we can’t see that it’s going to get better.” Many parents point to recently released results of the statewide educators’ TELL survey to support their claims. Sixty-nine percent of the Flagstone teachers surveyed don’t believe there is an atmosphere of trust and respect, and 51 percent said school leadership is not effective, according to the survey.
Although each organization receives funding from a variety of sources, including in-kind support, local government, grants, fundraising, memberships, sponsorships and meeting fees, all are in a continuous cycle of securing funding to make ends meet and grow services. A Castle Rock Senior Center spokesperson concisely addressed the issues of volunteers and funding in her statement: “Your help — through donations, or though volunteer time — will continue to make our area senior centers the kind of place that YOU will want to be a part of when your day comes.” To play the devil’s advocate, if by 2030 the predicted one in four residents will be over 60, is the best solution higher tax allocations for senior services? With longer life spans, three generations of one family could feasibly be called seniors.

S1 Lone Tree team wins second 12 The News-Press
June 4, 2015
in stock market game
Elementary school youths compete against older students By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Lone Tree Elementary School students who participated in the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association Stock Market Game learned how patience, risk-taking and investigation can pay off in business and life. “You’ve got to be patient and see what happens later when you invest in new stock,” said Lone Tree Elementary sixth-grader Zane Keilt. “You can’t always go with the companies you know. We learned about some new companies we’d never heard of before.” If you do those things, “You can get a lot of money in the pro-
cess.” One of three participating Lone Tree team placed second in the region, competing against middle and high school teams. The Stock Market Game gives fourth- through 12-grade students nationwide a taste of the global financial world and the fundamentals of personal finance. Each group of students starts the 15-week program with $1,000 in virtual investment funds. Teams are organized by Congressional district and state. The second-place Lone Tree Elementary group finished in the black with $1,372. “My kids are pretty proud,” said Lone Tree Elementary sixth grade teacher Julia Wiley. “We really loved it.” “At first, they had no clue what to do at first with their money. They all wanted to buy things like Nike, Coldstone, Krispy Kreme
and Apple — products they were familiar with — and then found out they couldn’t because they didn’t have enough money.” The team learned how to research the stocks they wanted, track trends over time, to buy low and sell high. “Even if their stock was losing and they sold it, that was exciting,” Wiley said. “They just wanted to see change. And they were willing to give up things that were losing.” The team was recognized during a May 11 awards ceremony at the University of Denver. The students got a chance to show off their newfound knowledge before school ended. Volunteers from Charles Schwab visited the school to discuss financial literacy with the students. “When all my kids could describe what a stock was, what a bond was, they were blown away,” Wiley said.

S2 Parker OKs tax incentives for Gander Mountain

out of the general fund.’
cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com
John Hall,
A sales-tax incentive package helped lure sporting goods retailer Gander Mountain to Parker. Parker Town Council approved a taxincentive agreement worth $700,000 during its meeting May 4. Here is a breakdown of how the approval will impact the town.
Annual sales are estimated to be $12 million annually and the new store will employ about 60 full-time individuals when fully operational.
What it means
Why do it
Sales-tax incentives are authorized by town council to encourage the recruitment of businesses and employers that generate retail sales-tax revenue. The incentives provide employment opportunities and expand and diversify the goods and services to the residents, while “increasing the inflow of revenue from outside of the town,” said Elise Penington, town spokeswoman.
Tax incentives are used to sweeten the deal; Gander Mountain had been considering other locations to build in the south metro area. “In this environment, which is highly competitive, it’s important for us to be able to target certain kinds of enterprises,” said John Hall, economic development director for the Town of Parker. “But incentives alone are not going to
exceed five years. The combined maximum rebate of all fees and taxes will not exceed $700,000. “The assistance we provide comes out of the revenue that they generate, so it’s not as if we’re writing a check out of the general fund,” Hall says.
Where it’s going and when it will open
cause a business to locate somewhere that otherwise doesn’t work for them.” There are other factors involved: it “has to be the right market for them, with good location and demographics. We are that right market,” Hall said.
If all permits and construction applications are approved, Gander Mountain plans to invest $4.2 million to build a 57,000-square-foot building on six acres immediately north of Costco in the Crown Point development. The proposal represents a “significant investment in, and commitment to, the Town of Parker,” according to the agreement. The company plans to open its doors in spring 2016.
How it works
What Gander Mountain does
Economic development director for the Town of Parker
Gander Mountain filed an application to participate in the Town of Parker Tax and Fee Assistance Program — or TAP. The agreement stipulates that Gander Mountain will receive a rebate of 50 percent of building permit fees and construction use taxes and a rebate of nearly 50 percent of sales tax for a period not to

Using faith to lend a helping hand Churches, organizations reach out beyond walls By Tom Munds
tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com Volunteers stock shelves in an Englewood church to distribute food to about 150 families a week. A Christian organization in Lakewood brings together people from throughout the metro area to build classrooms and dig wells in rural Nicaraguan villages. These are just two of the countless faithbased programs in the Denver metro area that spread the Gospel while helping those in need. “I feel we are blessed to be able to help the people of rural villages, and they are so appreciative of all we do,” said former Englewood business owner Bill Caldwell, who has traveled to Nicaragua. “The smiles on the faces of the adults and children of the villages more than compensate me for anything I do while I am there.” The Denver metro area counts more than 1,000 churches, most of which provide outreach programs that help those across the street, across the country or around the world. Kevin Ross, director of Missions and Outreach at Cherry Hills Community Church in Highlands Ranch, said outreach is important to the church and to the faith. “Outreach is all about sharing the love of Christ,” he said. “The method of outreach depends on who we are serving.” He said Cherry Hills recently organized 3,000 volunteers for the Love in Action event that worked on 127 projects, including doing repairs on the homes of seniors and helping with neighborhood cleanup in inner-city areas. “We also reach out across the world. We will have 15 or 20 teams go on trips this summer to a number of locations,” he said. “Again, the focus is sharing the love of Christ and helping the people of the area. In Mexico, that can be sharing the love and helping the poorest of the poor, while in central Europe that can be making disciples in the most atheistic part of the world.”
Fighting hunger locally Mosaic Church in Englewood, an evangelical Protestant church, focuses on the people in its neighborhood. Once a week, about 30 volunteers stock and then open the doors of its food bank. Along with distributing food, volunteers also give away Bibles and let clients know they will pray with them if asked. “They pick what they will use,” said Englewood Mayor Randy Penn, who volunteers at the food bank. “They can choose from bread items, snacks, fruits, vegetables and meat. A typical individual will take $50 to $75 in grocer-
Everyone’s hands grasp a shovel or the handles of a wheelbarrow on this work-and-witness trip to Nicaragua organized by the Casa Unida Foundation. The all-volunteer foundation enlists people to pay their way to travel to Nicaragua to help mountain villagers by building schools and churches, and by sharing their faith. ies home from here.” Some volunteers originally came to the bank to pick up food. “A friend told me about the food bank, and I came here as a client about eight years ago,” Amber Douglas said. “Things got a little better for me, so I volunteer to help out here at the food bank any way I can.”
Taking faith abroad Casa Unida Foundation, an all-volunteer Christian organization based in Lakewood, organizes what many denominations call workand-witness projects in Nicaragua. “We work with pastors who identify the projects that are needed to help the residents of rural villages in the mountains of northern Nicaragua,” said Bob Moore, foundation president and a former Littleton businessman. “We reach out to people who live in villages with no running water and no electricity. Those who do get jobs make about $2 a day, so they could never raise the money to build classrooms, community buildings, drill a well or put in the pipes to bring in safe, treated water from the nearby city. So we organize a trip, raise the funds for materials, and go down and lend a hand.” Volunteers also share their faith by working with local pastors to host vacation Bible school sessions for hundreds of children. Casa Unida Foundation has organized trips to Nicaragua once or twice a year since 2003.
It chose Nicaragua because it is the secondpoorest country in the western hemisphere, Moore said. The average education level in Nicaragua is fifth grade. Volunteers pay their own expenses. A typical two-week trip costs $1,800, which pays for airfare, lodging and food, and the rest of the money is used for building materials. From the capital of Managua, volunteers then take a three-hour bus ride north to the city of Somoto.
Digging in to work Once in Somoto, the group piles into the back of a large truck for the trip to the work site. “All construction is brick, and the work is hard,” Caldwell said. “These are villages with no electricity and no running water. The water is hauled from the well, and the cement is mixed in batches on the ground.” Despite the hard physical work, Caldwell said it is difficult to explain the joy and satisfaction he feels being part of a work-and-witness trip. Douglas County resident John Benton, who also joined the foundation for one of the trips to Nicaragua, feels the same way. “I had no idea what to expect, and I quickly found out it is hard work, which was a change for me since I work in an office,” he said. “But it was such a great trip. I loved the people, I loved sharing my faith and … it was such a wonderful, heart-warming and uplifting experience.”
Amber Douglas separates items for the clients coming to Holy Cow Food Bank at the Mosaic Church in Englewood on May 21. Douglas first came to the bank to pick up food. Now she is a volunteer helping others.

Union Station eateries gain global cred When Travel + Leisure magazine, a national consumer publication, recently posted its picks for the nine best train station restaurants, two Denver eateries were included in that prestigious short list, which included entries from New York, Hong Kong, Paris, London and Tokyo. T+L lavished the love on Stoic & Genuine and Mercantile Dining & Provision in Denver’s revamped Union Station. Here’s what the magazine said about the local dining establishments: “When Denver’s Union Station reopened last year after extensive renovations, it brought with it a clutch of new — and worthy — restaurants. Stoic & Genuine, a seafood temple from Denver chef Jennifer Jasinski, commanded attention even before it opened. Between its raw bar, `seafood tower of power,’ and `surf in turf’ dish of big-eye tuna wrapped in New York strip steak, Stoic & Genuine won strong reviews and was even named one of 5280 magazine’s top 10 new Denver restaurants. “In a stroke of fortune, Denver Union Station’s remodel project actually yielded two highly regarded restaurant projects. Mercantile Dining & Provision, run by chef Alex Seidel, is one part casual restaurant and one part food market selling charcuterie, cheese, jam and more. The menu here offers a variety of pasta dishes such as squid ink bucatini, Spanish octopus a la plancha, a crispy half chicken, and family dinners like a bone-in 36-ounce rib-eye or roasted lamb shoulder, each served with a variety of sides. Mercantile, too, was named one of 5280 magazine’s best new restaurants in 2015.” While the recognition of this level of culinary prowess causes pride in Denver
diners, it makes local restaurant pundit John Imbergamo downright delighted. “It seems that every time a national list of restaurants hits the web, Denver’s culinary community searches in vain for a representative, whether it’s Best Ice Penny Parker Cream, Best New MILE HIGH Restaurant or Hot New Chef,” ImbergaLIFE mo said. “In 25 years of working with Denver restaurants, this might be the first time that Denver scored two slots on an international top restaurant list. Are we finally winning a few converts to the Mile High culinary scene?” For the rest of the story, go to www.travelandleisure.com/slideshows/all-aboard-forthe-coolest-train-station-restaurants.
Upstairs Circus opening in Landmark
Upstairs Circus, a social bar where people can create DIY art and design projects, will open its second metro-area location at The Landmark development between Jing and Masters Gallery in Greenwood Village. The first Denver location opened in LoDo in November 2013. The Landmark branch is expected to open in September. “The Landmark is the social center of the DTC area and we’re thrilled to welcome Upstairs Circus’ unique and fun concept to the community,” said Amy Cara, the partner at East West Partners overseeing The Land-
mark development. “Upstairs Circus has a loyal crowd of followers in downtown Denver and we think the social art experience will be a huge success at The Landmark.” While Upstairs Circus space at The Landmark will have a similar vibe to its LoDo sister, founders Matt and Kelly Johannsen will create new programming based on the neighborhood’s individual needs. Hours of operation are planned to be 2:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. weekdays; 11 a.m. to midnight Saturday; and 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday. Upstairs Circus offers a full bar and a limited food menu.

Celebrity in Aurora
My former Denver Post colleague Kevin Coleman had an accidental close encounter of the celebrity kind recently at Starbucks on Parker Road and Iliff in Aurora. He said, “OK, I am sitting here drinking some tea while listening to the baseball game and these two ladies sit next to me. One of them looks like Jane Curtin. The other lady sees me and politely asks what I am listening to. I say the Rockies and the other woman asks how Tulo is playing? I couldn’t resist and tell her she looks like Jane Curtin. Her friend says, ‘That’s because she is Jane Curtin. She is my sister-in-law.’ I tell her I am a fan, we chat for a few minutes and then go back to what we were doing. Nice lady. And, for the record, she really is a big Tulo fan.”
Overheard
Eavesdropping on Facebook: “So, I’m 6-foot-2. My daughter just came to me in the kitchen wearing her three-inch pumps, and was pretty darn close to being eye to eye with her old man. She said, ‘Dad, I like the weather up here.’ BTW, she’s 14.” Penny Parker’s “Mile High Life” column gives insights into the best events, restaurants, businesses, parties and people throughout the metro area.

The museum program will be at 7 p.m. June 11 at the museum, 420 Elbert St., Castle Rock. A related exhibit of photos and headlines is on exhibit at the museum. Then on June 16, Littleton will note the anniversary combined with Aspen Grove’s Family Movie Night — appropriately “Singin’ in the Rain.” The South Platte Park staff will conduct hikes along the river, starting at 7 p.m., and will demonstrate with its River Table. There will be a bounce house and face painting. South Platte Park has been collecting flood memories and photographs at the Carson Nature Center. (Story coming June 11.) For information: 303-730-1022. A new book, “Visions of the Flood,” will be available soon.

Equine theme comes to botanic gardens Horse sculptures will remain through middle of October By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com As one walks into the Denver Botanic Gardens/York Street, “Charlo,” the most recently created Deborah Butterfield horse sculpture (2015), appears to be happily munching on surrounding vegetation, while nearby, “Ahulani” (1991) is reclining and relaxing. Both are included in American sculptor Butterfield’s 15-piece bronze “herd,” which is spending the summer at the DBG — located individually throughout the gardens’ acreage in beautiful settings. The exhibit opened May 23 and will remain in place through Oct. 18. Some sculptures, such as “Lucky,” are named for the artist’s own horses, and others, such as “Red Forest,” are named for places of significance to her. All are life-sized or larger-than-life, and involved some careful digging for underground supports and a crane to set them into the assigned locations. “Red Forest,” for example, is tall and powerful-looking — and carefully, tightly placed in the densely planted rose garden, which almost seems like a bizarre sense of humor was at play. He is named, Butterfield said, after the forest near Chernobyl, in the Ukraine, where the disastrous 1986 nuclear reactor explosion turned the needles red on the surrounding evergreen trees. “We need to remember these things,” she commented. She received an MFA from the University of California-Davis in 1973, already focused on horses — in contrast to the conceptual art her peers were creating. She shaped them with sticks, mud, metal and wood at first, but these found materials did not offer the permanence she sought, so she began casting the individual pieces she collected in bronze and then welding them together. They show the different bark textures and forms of their particular source, enhanced by patinas painted on with a brush. Chemicals in patinas give a range
“Storm Castle”2012, Deborah Butterfield, bronze. The original wood came from a pond near Butterfield’s Montana home. Photo by Scott Dressel-Martin of subdued colors. She has focused on horses for 30 years and all but one in the exhibit are made from bronze. “Luna” (1992), lounging by a pool at the far west side of DBG, is made from found steel, welded. During a May 22 press preview, she described the sources of her wood for some sculptures. “Storm Castle” is composed of driftwood-looking pieces salvaged from a pond near the Hawaiian winter home she and he husband maintain in addition to a primary residence/ranch in northern Montana. The foundry where she now casts and assembles her works is fairly new, in Walla Walla, Washington — and is the largest in the U.S. today, she said. Walla Walla Foundry’s website lists a number of prominent sculptors among its clients. She builds a scaffolding first and slowly assembles the cast bronze branches and sticks, first at the hips and shoulders, then the heads. She tries to make each one approachable. “I want people to be able to kind of crawl in to the horse — to
be in the woods with them,” she said. She spoke with special affection about “Lucky,” which is loaned from the Denver Art Museum collection and was modeled on her own deeply loved horse, which just died. It is a relaxed, relining form. “He liked to cuddle up like this and have someone sit and pet him,” she recalled, citing Wallace Stegner’s novel, “Angle of Repose”, as a way of describing reclining horses. He is set in a gravel area, raked in circular pattern like a Kyoto, Japan, garden that Butterfield remembers. When talking about the large “Silver Bow” and the reclining “Cascade,” near the orangery, she veered into a short lecture about how everyone used to depend on horses. And about the personalities of horses: “Like cats, they’ve decided to hang out with us …” According to the gardens’ CEO Brian Vogt, “this is a year when we are celebrating the Great Plains and similar steppe ecosystems around the world. There is no more iconic animal of the steppe than the horse.”

Museum Outdoor Arts spotlights several pieces ‘Selections from the Collection’ reflects variety of gallery’s works By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com The Museum Outdoor Arts’ indoor gallery at the Englewood Civic Center is filled with items collected over the more than 30 years that the MOA has been a force in the local arts community. “Selections from the Collection” reflects the varied kinds of focus the MOA has had as it follows its emphasis on “art in everyday life.” A mix of 2D and 3D works are, as always, well-displayed, but don’t especially relate to each other in most cases. One just needs to enjoy each as an individual, complete work. Although the back gallery has an assortment that seems to play together nicely: To the right of the entrance is “House of Fire,” a sculpture created from curvy, heavy paper — with edges singed. By Judy Anderson and Ginny Hayle, it was part of an especially interesting exhibit called “Reinventing the Book.” Also in that gallery is a large horizontal, blue, gray and white abstract canvas by Joseph Raffael, with a wall text quote from Raffael: “My painting is and has been a conversation with mystery.” In front of the painting are two flat sculptural figures, bent like chairs — but “not very comfortable,” according to MOA’s Tim Vacca. To the left side is a columnar sculpture, keeping watch. Lighting is low and a bit mysterious, inviting the viewer to make up a story or two. Near a pillar in the main gallery, one sees photos, chairs and earphones. Stop to hear about the creation of a recent addition that is not really portable. Fiddler’s Green Amphitheater is included in the MOA holdings, and last year it was renovated to include the “Panoramic Living Mural,” which covers a great deal of concrete wall around the insides with a pattern of living plants — “the only one inside a music venue in the world.” The sustainable ecological installation is one

ABOUT THE MOA
The Museum Outdoor Arts’ indoor gallery is on the second floor of the Englewood Civic Center, 1000 Englewood Parkway. “Selections from the Collection” runs through July 11.

In 1981, John W. Madden Jr. and his daughter, Cynthia Madden Leitner, founded the Museum of Outdoor Arts, described as “a synthesis of fine art, architecture and landscape design integrated into the community and business environment.” It is fully accessible to the public and exemplifies the belief that “art is a part of everyday life.”

And near these is a quirky curiosity case

Action star can’t save us from cheesy moments ‘San Andreas’ isn’t an art film, but it’s fun By Jocelyn Noveck
Associated Press
It’s sure been a rough year for Hollywood. First there was the stinging Sony hacking scandal. And now we have the humbling image of the Hollywood letters themselves toppling to the ground, as most of California is pulverized by an earthquake — make that earthquakes, plural — in “San Andreas.” If those letters toppling sounds like a pretty obvious image, well, duh. Everything in “San Andreas,” which stars Dwayne Johnson and his amazing musculature as a powerful-yet-sweet rescue pilot, is obvious, over-the-top, and occasionally laugh-outloud cheesy. But really, you weren’t expecting Ingmar Bergman, were you? Summer’s upon us, and you could do worse than watch the undeniably appealing Johnson try to save the day while uttering the silliest dialogue imaginable. Plus, if you live far from the West Coast, there’s the juicy schadenfreude factor — though we can count on the inevitable sequel (“San Andreas 2: Eastward,” perhaps?) to fix that. The movie, directed by Brad Peyton, declares itself proudly from the start. We begin as a winsome blonde lass drives her car off the road and finds herself dangling on a cliff. Ray Gaines of the LAFD to the rescue. With an easy, calm smile, Ray (Johnson) finds a way to total his helicopter yet scoop the lass to freedom. But we soon learn that there was one major failed rescue in Ray’s life that haunts him every day. In fact, it destroyed his marriage to Emma (Carla Gugino), who, as we meet her, is about to move in with her new fiance, a smarmy real estate developer named Daniel (Ioan Gruffudd, in a truly thankless role). Meanwhile, Emma and Ray’s daughter, 19-year-old Blake (Alexandra Daddario), hitches a ride to San Francisco with her mom’s beau and asks why he never had children. Gazing at a plan for his latest skyscraper, he says: “I guess I never had kids because I was too busy raising these.” And that, dear reader, is what we mean by

ABOUT THE MOVIE “San Andreas,” a Warner Bros. release, is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America “for intense disaster action and mayhem throughout, and brief strong language.” Running time: 114 minutes. One and a half stars out of four.
cheesy writing. But then calamity strikes. And we do mean calamity. Anything this movie can do once, it does twice, no, many more times. And so, just for example, twin earthquakes begin pummeling both Los Angeles, where Emma is, and San Francisco, where Blake is, almost simultaneously. This all a huge shock (pardon the pun) to everyone except one man: a geologist at Cal Tech, Lawrence (Paul Giamatti), who predicts much of the mayhem, but can’t get anyone to listen. Giamatti brings all his nervous energy, but can’t do much to liven up lines like: “This is NOT good.” He’s accompanied in many scenes by Archie Panjabi as a TV reporter who, if we’re not mistaken, doesn’t remove her stilettoes once, even when taking cover from the Big One. But back to Ray, because, while this movie is prepared to kill off thousands of people in seconds, it cares deeply, as does Ray, about those close to Ray. In fact, it’s better not to wonder why this professional rescue pilot is spending the entire film saving his family. Wipe that distracting thought from your brain! Once Ray has saved Emma from a crumbling rooftop in LA, it’s up to San Francisco, home of the famed Golden Gate Bridge — er, make that former Golden Gate Bridge. It’s time to save Blake, who’s at least lucky enough to have hooked up with a shy-sexysweet British guy, Ben (Hugo JohnstoneBurt), and his annoying little brother (Art Parkinson.) This rescue mission includes a tandem parachute jump into a baseball diamond. “It’s been a while since I got you to second base,” Ray says to his wife. Yes, he really says that. But wait: We forgot the tsunami! Well, it’s that kind of movie, where so much happens that you can forget the tsunami part. But remember, you weren’t expecting Bergman, right? So roll with it.

Jaguars claim first state baseball title Rock Canyon strikes for nine runs in lightning-delayed championship game By Jim Benton
jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com If there was one play that defined Rock Canyon’s baseball season, it was Quinn O’Neill’s at-bat during the fifth inning of the Jaguars’ 9-2 victory over Chatfield in the Class 5A state championship game. Chris Givin, a senior bound for Xavier to play baseball, walked to start the inning at Denver’s All-City Field. Then O’Neill flied out to left field in the May 27 title contest. However, a balk was called and O’Neill returned to the plate with Chris Givin on second base. O’Neill then belted an RBI double and eventually came home on a single by Daryl Myers. That extended the Jaguars’ lead to 5-2, and Rock Canyon went on to nail down the fourth overall athletic state championship for the 12-yearold school. The victory gave the school its first baseball title. “That was kind of the epitome of our season,” said O’Neill, a senior outfielder who is headed to Trinidad State Junior College to play baseball. “That’s what we did. We took advantage of opportunities. We rolled with it. We definitely had the momentum on our side.” Rock Canyon took advantage of opportunities during the double-elimination portion of the state tournament and overcame some mistakes as the baseball team joined the boys soccer team (2008), girls golf team (2009) and girls swimming team (2009) as state champions. “This team was the greatest group of individuals,” said coach Tyler Munro, whose team opened the tournament with a 3-2 loss to Continental League rival Mountain Vista. “I told everyone if we ever lost they were going to bawl like babies. It was such a tight group. They loved being out there together. “We had one guy step up every game, and I had no idea who it might be.” In three elimination games at Denver’s All-City Field, the Continental League champion Jaguars beat previously undefeated Chatfield 7-6 on May 26, came back on May 27 with a 2-1 win over Mountain Vista to move into the championship game, and later in the day whipped Chatfield again to wrap up the title. Rock Canyon played small-ball at times, stealing bases and making key pitches to get out of trouble. The Jaguars also had to overcome some miscues; the team committed four errors, hit two batters and had two passed balls in its first win over Chatfield. The Jaguars had only two hits and had two runners picked off base in their triumph over Mountain Vista, but they played their most complete game in the championship win over the Chargers. In Rock Canyon’s May 25 win over Chatfield, Chris Givin pitched two scoreless innings in relief of starter Bryce Dietz. Matt Givin drove in the winning run in the bottom of the seventh with a sacrifice fly. In the first game of the May 27 doubleheader, with a trip to the title game on the line, Mountain Vista’s Will Dixon gave up just two hits. But junior first baseman Ben Sneider singled home two runners who walked in the second inning to give the Jaguars all the runs they needed to end the Golden Eagles’ season with a 19-7 record. Chris Givin pitched a complete game, scattering six hits as Rock Canyon advanced to a second matchup against Chatfield.
Rock Canyon players celebrate their first ever championship in baseball on Wednesday at All City Field in Denver. The Jaguars defeated Chatfield by the score of 9-2. Photos by Paul DiSalvo Josh White, a senior second baseman who will become a cadet at West Point later this summer, made his second start of the season and second in the playoffs in the championship win over Chatfield. “I remember at the start of the season somebody saying, `I think he’s going to help you,’” Munro said of White. White gave up one hit in each of the first five innings, but he limited the Chargers’ scoring chances in the complete game victory. “We knew going in this week there would be a hole,” said White. “That first game loss (to Mountain Vista) was a little shocking. We knew we could get them again and we did. “I just wanted to make my pitches and the stuff we practiced all year, make sure my mechanics were sound and use the defense behind me,” White added. “As the game went on I was locating my pitches better.” Rock Canyon (23-4) collected nine hits off four Chatfield pitchers and had an 8-2 lead in the top of the seventh before an hour stoppage for lightning and rain delayed the Jaguars’ victory celebration. O’Neill had two hits and three runs batted in during the championship game. Myers, a junior, also had a pair of hits and two RBI. “It was exciting and fun to be around this team,” said O’Neill. “It was huge. It will be a stepping stone for our program.”
Rock Canyon catcher Logan O’Neill (4) passes on some confidence to pitcher Josh White (3) in Rock Canyon’s 9-2 victory in the Class 5A state championship game May 27. White didn’t need much help, going seven innings and only giving up five hits.
Zhong shows heightened focus in tennis
Mountain Vista’s Casey Zhong was named the Colorado Community Media South Metro Girls Tennis Player of the Year. File photo
Mountain Vista player had great sophomore year By Jim Benton
jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Casey Zhong paid more attention to what was happening on the court this season than what was happening off the court. Zhong, Mountain Vista’s standout sophomore, did well in her freshman season but admitted it was a learning experience. “When I was a freshman, I didn’t understand all the outside hype and challenges that came with high school tennis with all the cheering,” said Zhong. “This year I feel I challenged that a lot better, focused on myself when I was on the court and nothing that happened outside.” Zhong lost just two matches this season, finished third in the Class 5A state tournament at No. 1 singles and was named the Colorado Community Media South Metro Girls Tennis Player of the Year. “She deserves it,” said Mountain Vista coach James Flanigan. “She worked really hard and she beat every girl in the Continental League. She was the best player all year. Her only losses all year were to the 4A title girl and the 5A title girl.”
Zhong lost to Steamboat Springs’ Tatum Burger early during the Western Slope Open, and lost to her good friend Amber Shen in the state tournament. Burger won the Class 4A No. 1 singles title and Shen was the Class 5A state champion. “I definitely learned a lot from both of those matches,” said Zhong. “The one with the 4A girl I learned — because I had not played her before — to never underestimate an opponent. In the 5A match against my friend I learned a lot about what I need to improve on. “I had a really good season, definitely better than last year, which is good because you always want to improve. I went undefeated in the regular SOUTH METRO season and took third at state, so that was pretty good success.” ATHLETES Zhong feels she was a better tennis OF THE YEAR player in the 2015 high school season. As a freshman she was 17-2, losing in the regular season to eventual state champion Tate Schroder of Arapahoe and to Bri Smith of Highlands Ranch in the state tournament quarterfinals. “I improved on the techniques of being an aggressive baseliner, and then one of my goals last year was to be more consistent,” explained Zhong. “I improved on that this year. My serve was a big improvement too.”

Swimmer comes back in amazing style Creek senior shines at state after recovering from surgery By Jim Benton
jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Cherry Creek senior Sam Coffman is the Colorado Community Media South Metro Boys Swimmer of the Year, but he could also be the Comeback Swimmer of the Year if there was such an award. Coffman didn’t swim last season after undergoing rotator cuff surgery, but he garnered three first-place medals and came close to collecting a fourth at the 2015 state swimming championships May 16 at the Air Force Academy. “It was very grueling watching my teammates last year at state compete, and all I could do was be on the sidelines and cheer them on,” said Coffman. “I did everything I possibly could to contribute to
the team.” Teammates were cheering for Coffman this season. He won the 200-yard freestyle state championship in 1:39.19, and got his second first-place finish in the 100yard freestyle with a winning time of 45.64. He swam the anchor leg on the Bruins’ 400-yard freestyle relay team with JJ Strain, John Cremer and Hunter SOUTH METRO Fuqua. They were ATHLETES state champs with a OF THE YEAR time of 3:07.21. Coffman, who has signed to join the University of Missouri swimming team next fall, was also the part of the 200-yard freestyle relay team that was edged out of first place by one hundredth of a second. “Clutch is the best way to describe
Sam,” said Creek coach Chris Loftis, who related that Coffman swam in one meet last season in order to get a state qualifying time so he could join the team at the 2014 state meet. “It was pretty amazing, basically swimming on one arm,” continued Loftis. “What he was able to do this year speaks to what he is as an athlete, but more importantly as a young man.” Coffman’s grit helped him get ready for this season. He wanted to be at full strength after finishing fourth in the 100 and 200 freestyle individual events as a sophomore. He also swam on the 200- and 400-yard relay teams at the state meet two years ago. “Rehab after the surgery was annoying,” said Coffman. “No one wants to do the exercises and keep up with the work. The doctors were astonished on how fast I recovered after the surgery. I had full range of motion a week out and had a lot of my strength back by three weeks. I was very determined. I did all the work like
they said. “This year my training was more grueling and was the hardest I’ve ever done.” Still, Coffman had qualms heading into the state meet. “I had doubts here and there,” he admitted. “I knew if I just believed in myself and knew if I dropped the attitude from my head I could accomplish my goals. “Going into the kind of meet like state, I was defiCoffman nitely nervous. Anyone could take that kind of a meet and for some reason just swim out of their mind. I knew if I just kept my nerves in check and with all my teammates cheering me on, I could do great things. “I was injured at the time, but I still wanted to be a part of the Creek team so I swam anyway,” he said. “I was given one chance and got a couple state times.”

SALOME’S STARS FOR RELEASE WEEK OF JUNE 1, 2015
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Your Aries self-esteem level is high, as is your impatience to see more action come your way in the workplace. Good news, Lamb: It could start to happen sooner than you think. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Changing things now could upset a lot of people. But if you feel you’re acting because you believe it’s the right thing to do, others will understand and even come to support you. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A change of mind might not necessarily be a change of heart. You still want to go ahead with your plans, but you might see a better way to make them happen. So go for it.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) An old business dispute could re-emerge and possibly affect upcoming negotiations. Consider opening up the situation to include suggestions from others on both sides of the issue. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Some Leos and Leonas might find it somewhat difficult to get their ideas accepted or even considered. But that’s only for a while. Things will soon return to the way you like them. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) The pace seems to be slowing down from the hectic on-the-job run you recently enjoyed. But be assured that you’re still in the race to pick up new workplace-related goodies. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Seasonal changes create opportunities for busy Librans. However, be sure to balance your workload with your personal life so that you don’t overdo it on one end or the other. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) A former critic could make a surprise turnaround and become a supporter. But if your Scorpion sense suspects a questionable motive, who are the rest of us to doubt it? SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Data on a new project seems less than dependable. But it might turn out to be just the opposite. Consult with someone who knows how you might best be able to check it out. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Capricorneans face many decisions this week, with the Sea Goat’s kids rating high on the consideration scale, especially regarding vacations and upcoming school matters. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Showing that you care is what Aquarians do so well. It’s your very special skill. And this week, you’ll have several chances to show off that gift for a very special person. Good luck. PISCES (February 19 to March 21) That streak of Piscean wariness should serve you well this week should you be among those who come up against a slippery character offering a fishy deal with nothing to back it up.

Community rodeo quite a ride Event held a week before the Stampede By Rick Gustafson Special to Colorado Community Media Local cowboys and cowgirls gathered at Casey Jones Park
Stampede Grounds in Elizabeth for the annual Elizabeth Stampede Community Rodeo on May 30. All events were open to anyone willing to pay the entry fee and climb on the back of PRCA or PBR stock for bull and saddle bronco riding. The open competitions also included barrel racing, team roping and a hide race. A free
concert featuring the music of Carlos Washington & the Steel Horse Band followed the competitive events and presentations to the winners. Team ropers took home purses of up to $234. The original community rodeo began in 1937 and was organized by the Elizabeth Commercial Association. The annual
event ultimately evolved into the Elizabeth Stampede. In 1988, the Stampede became a Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association event, which eventually filled the weekend with professional rodeo competitions and did not allow time for the amateur rodeo. In order to continue the tradition of amateur competition, a
separate community rodeo was created in the 1990s and is held annually the weekend leading up to the Elizabeth Stampede. The event is free to the public. The Elizabeth Stampede opens June 5 with the PRCA XTreme Bulls Rodeo and closes on June 7 with rodeo performances and the coronation of the 2016 Stampede Royalty.

Cresthill students pitch local business ‘sharks’ Seventh-graders create international companies for their fictional products By Jane Reuter
jreuter@colorado communitymedia.com

The product pitches for Sham Genie, Lifeproof Laptops and the Temp Blanket were made by youthful entrepreneurs, professionally attired in ties and dresses. Their presentations touched not only on product features, but included a full, international business plan that broke down production material and costs, employee pay, sustainability efforts and anticipated growth and expansion. The pitches didn’t take place in a marketing company’s high-rise conference room. They were made in a seventh-grade classroom at Cresthill Middle School. Sonja Herring’s social studies class participated in a “Shark Tank”-inspired project that culminated with the May 20 and 21 presentations before a panel of adults. Herring got the idea during a summer 2014 innovation workshop hosted by the Douglas County School District. Her students had just two weeks to put together the detailed reports, including video presentations for sharks provided by the Highlands Ranch Chamber of Commerce. The seventhgraders’ enthusiasm for the fictional products they’d created shone through their nerves. “The Sham Genie will improve the world,” said Seth Rotondo-Wankel, describing a showerhead with a hands-free control that simultaneously releases shampoo and conditioner. “It helps people who are amputees and people who have trouble maintaining self-care. Other people are not offering this and we feel we can fill this whole market.” Keene Fenster pointed to the silicon bumpers designed to absorb
shock and protect computers, features of the primary product produced by his team’s fictional company, Lifetime Laptops. The company is dedicated to fair trade practices, and using solar power and green technology. Fenster noted the initial investment cost for the laptop case and said, “If you look at our projected income, that money will quickly pay off.” The three panelists, all Highlands Ranch entrepreneurs, offered thoughtful feedback on the products, urging the students to narrow their target audience and be realistic about initial sales projections. They were impressed by the breadth of the students’ presentations, which represented two weeks of work. “I’ve loved the creativity of their ideas,” said businesswoman Caroline Burtard. “I am amazed for this age group that they’ve thought through most of it. I think it gets their wheels turning.” Learning about starting a business and how to present ideas will serve the students well in their careers, said panelist Krista Simonson, a Highlands Ranch real estate agent. “I’ve seen many adults who have not given as much thought to their companies (as these students),” she said. “The big picture of how to be an entrepreneur is really lost on most adults, let alone kids. “I think the earlier kids learn to do presentations, the better off they are. We are so online, we’re losing that ability.” Herring’s students gave the project high marks. “They said they got to see what the real world was like,” she said. “So much of school doesn’t feel real. But this gave them a chance to see they really could start their own business someday if they wanted to and the steps they’d have to take. They realized it’s harder than they thought. “I was really impressed” by the work they did, she said. “I’ll definitely do it again.”
