City’s planning board rejects project Council has final say on Broadstone proposal By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com The troupers who remained in the gallery at 12:30 a.m. on June 25 seemed surprised when all seven of Littleton’s planning-board members voted against a proposal to build a six-story apartment building across the street from the iconic courthouse. “We’ve been working hard for this for a long time,” said Paul Bingham, who helped lead a citizens’ movement against the plan. City council will have the final say on the project, and was set to take up the proposal on first reading on July 2. The board members openly struggled with the decision as the 5½-hour meeting drew to a close, but agreed in the end that

the sheer mass and high density of the project is not in line with the city’s current comprehensive plan or the Littleton Boulevard corridor study. “This was a very difficult case here,” said board member Mark Rudnicki. “I keep going back to the existing zoning versus the new (planned development). It’s an existing use by right.” He said the project’s opponents either don’t understand or don’t care that the current zoning allows things like car lots, a parking garage, a movie theater or even a drive-through restaurant. There are no height limits, open-space requirements or minimum setbacks. Andy Clay of Alliance Residential Company stressed that his team worked diligently to assuage the neighbors’ concerns. As a last-ditch effort, they even lowered the Project continues on Page 12

Summer is season for water safety South Suburban offers classes to get kids ready for the pool By Savanna Walker

Special to Colorado Community Media As summer hits its peak, pool attendance increases dramatically. However, children’s safety in the water is always a concern. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, drowning is the second leading cause of death for children ages 1-14. JoAnn Gould, who serves as director of Recreation and Community Services for South Suburban Parks and Recreation, POSTAL ADDRESS

shares these concerns. “It’s vital for children, regardless of where they live, to learn how to swim,” she said. “It encourages socialization and athleticism, it’s a life skill, and it’s a life skill that could save their life.” In addition, Gould recommended that children be educated early. “In general,” she says, “whether it’s learning to swim or any other activity, from skateboarding to mountain climbing, it’s best to learn before you develop fears. It comes easier to young children.” Terrance, Torin and Emilia Kelly are three young children taking advantage of South Suburban’s swim-instruction classes. Terrance, 10, was enthusiastic about his

progress so far. “Before, I was not as good at the front stroke, but they’ve helped me learn how to breathe better,” he said at Holly Pool in Centennial. His 8-year-old brother, Torin, was a fan of one technique in particular. “You have to pretend that you have a watermelon in your tummy, so that you’re fat and then you float. Once I was doing a back glide and I started to sink and so I ate another watermelon and then I was fine.” Their mother, Lisa Kelley, has seen a marked improvement in her children’s abilities since starting the classes.

The budget the Littleton Public Schools Board of Education approved on June 27 for next year includes some hopeful signs, but mostly a lot of status quo. Per-pupil funding from the state increased for the first time in four years. It’s $6,398, $165 more than last year. However, total budgeted expenses are $9,080 per student. The district predicts a decrease of 64 students next year, to 15,381. But more students still transfer into LPS than any other district in the metro area, noted Scott Myers, chief financial officer. “Which is always a good sign, that people are choosing to come here,” said board member Sue Chandler. The bottom line is a $221 million total budget, up about 2 percent from last year’s $216 million. Total expenditures increased $3 million to $173 million. The other $43 million is mostly state-mandated emergency reserves. Budget continues on Page 12

NEW ITEMS IN SCHOOLS’ BUDGET • The district is placing a full-time health assistant in every building next year, at a cost of about $400,000. They will administer medicines, perform first aid, track immunizations and be on hand for emergencies. • Field Elementary School is adding an hour to the school day in an effort to foster achievement in its large population of at-risk students. The program is partly supported by a federal grant. • A new state law that defines how teachers will be evaluated will cost about $500,000 to implement next year, and Chief Financial Oﬃcer Scott Myers anticipates it will cost about $3 million a year thereafter. • $3.2 million from the 2010 mill levy will go toward curriculum, technology and other student needs.

Junior Police Academy to be held at church By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Do your kids spend hours upon hours watching “Law and Order” or “CSI”? If so, the Littleton Police Department has just the thing to get them off the couch and out of the house. Middle-schoolers who live in Littleton are invited to the free Junior Police Academy, to be held July 15-18 at Mission Hills Church, 620 Southpark Drive in Littleton. Choose a morning or an afternoon session, when kids will learn about crime-scene investigation, arrest techniques, firearms safety, SWAT tactics, building searches, K-9s, DUI simulations and more. “The goal of the event is to give middleschool children a better idea of what law enforcement is about, and that it is so much

more than what they see on television,” said Sgt. Steve Skundberg. “More importantly, it’s an opportunity to build community ties with the kids we see every day in the neighborhoods. The kids we are focusing on, sixth-, seventh- and eighth-graders, are at a time in their life some of them may be starting to seriously think about what career path they might want to take, and this class can show them that law enforcement is a viable choice.” Kids will demonstrate their newfound skills on graduation day, June 19, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Register at www.littletongov.org/police by June 8 to ensure a spot in either the morning session, 9 to 11 a.m., or the afternoon session, 1 to 3 p.m. For more information, contact Skundberg at sskundberg@ littletongov.org or 303-734-8236.

Ham operators reach out on field day Event shows ability to communicate during emergency By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com The Amateur Radio Relay League field day on June 22-23 at Cornerstone Park went well, according to Scott Brown, site coordinator. “We had five transmitters operating at the same time from our site and we handled 800 to 900 messages,” he said June 24. “We still had more to do but ran out of time, but that happens about every year.” For field day, batteries, cables and radio equipment instead of picnic food covered the tables in a Cornerstone Park shelter as several members of the Littleton Radio Amateurs set up their site. The ARRL is an international amateur radio organization that holds a number of events each year, including field day, which is a 24-hour demonstration of ham operators’ ability to provide communications in emergencies.

The ARRL website states more than 35,000 amateur radio operators around the world set up equipment on the field day and established communications from remote locations without using phone systems, the Internet, power grid or any other link that could be knocked out in case of an emergency. The Cornerstone stations were staffed by members of the Littleton Amateur Radio Club and other volunteers. The amateur radio enthusiasts, nicknamed ham operators, took down their regular station setups and moved into the Cornerstone shelter for field day. The ham operators used car batteries as their power sources for the five transmitters being used to handle message traffic using voice, Morse code and data communication. At one of the five stations, John Polson used a key to send the Morse code letters, CQ, which is a ham radio operator’s request for any station on frequency to respond. When the response came, Polson transmitted his response using the lengthy string of dots and dashes that make up the letters of Morse code. Rick Spiegel also sent out a CQ request

When several CQ calls didn’t get a response, he changed frequencies and kept trying until he received a response, which happened to be from another Colorado field day operator. At another voice operation, the response was from a Wyoming ham operator. While operators worked at their transmitters, Chris Campbell was making repairs to a damaged cable connector. “I am an electrical engineer and radio is my first love,” he said as he stripped a wire and prepared to solder the wire to the connector.

Amateur radio operator Rick Spiegel uses a voice transmission to communicate with another location during the annual Amateur Radio Relay League’s field day. The local operators set up their station at a Cornerstone Park shelter.

“During my career, I built shore radio communications stations at a number of countries around the world. Now that I am retired, ham radio is my hobby and I really enjoy it.” Brown said the Cornerstone site was one of about 20 set up in Colorado. “Members of our group worked together to set up antennas in the horseshoe area and each member brought his equipment to the shelter site,” he said. “It took some time to get everything set up and hooked up to power, but we were on the air on time,” Brown said members of the club kept the field day operation going for 24 hours and made contact with other amateur radio operators around the country. “I think we communicated with ham operators in possibly every state in the union,” he said. “The exception might be Alaska, but I know we communicated with the other states, including Hawaii.”

ACC police chief leaves for new job Goodwin leads state’s child-protection office By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com

Dennis Goodwin won the Arapahoe Community College’s 2012-2013 Administrator of the Year award in the nick of time, as it was his last year there. Goodwin served as the campus police chief for seven years, but three weeks ago started his new position as the state of Colorado’s child protection ombudsman. His office investigates complaints about the child-welfare system and reviews cases to make sure they were conducted properly. It was somewhat controversial when it was established two years ago, but he feels e Park that corner has been turned. Now he wants to focus on making it e more independent and effective. “Having subpoena power and a little more teeth would be helpful,” he said. While his new job helps protect kids from monsters who would hurt them, Goodwin has encountered myriad others in his 33-year career in law enforcement. He was the chief investigator with the Jefferson County District Attorney’s Office at the time of the Columbine shootings, and victim Matthew Kechter was the grandson of one of his employees. Another case that sticks with him from that time is the brutal 1997 murder of 21-year-old Anita Paley at the hands of Robert Riggan Jr. Goodwin traveled to the Midwest to interview Riggan’s family. “I learned that he was a monster,” he said. “He was a bad guy, very abusive physically and in every way you can be abusive.” Goodwin is featured in a book about Paley’s murder, “Rough Trade” by Steve Jackson. However, Riggan is not the most notorious criminal

Goodwin has encountered. As a student at Florida State University in 1979, Goodwin interned at the Leon County Sheriff’s Department — during Ted Bundy’s third and final death-penalty trial. “Ted Bundy was spooky,” he said. “Very charming, very smart. … You could watch him and catch the darkness in his eyes and know there’s nothing there. That was part of Ted’s game, and I don’t think he ever realized that was really the end. I don’t think he cared.” Goodwin was assigned to escort Bundy’s surviving victims in the elevator to the courtroom to testify. “You don’t know what to say, and you don’t want to say the wrong thing. You want to tell them how brave they are, but you don’t know if that’s the

right thing to say,” he said. “I’d probably do something different if I could go back.” There was even a potential monster at ACC’s Littleton campus last year; student Austin Sigg stands accused of murdering 10-year-old Jessica Ridgeway. There was a bomb threat the same semester that shut down the campus. “We were tested, but we also handled it well,” he said. Somewhere is a monster Goodwin never could catch. Little Anthony Moya, 2, went missing from his home in Lakewood in 1989. Goodwin suspected a family member had committed foul play, but he could never prove it. “We did all that searching. We worked that case for years, and never could get anyone to get past, `He must have just walked out the door,’” he said. “It’s been 20 years. How do you put something like that aside for so long?” Sometimes what is thought to be a monster is really just a big misunderstanding, like the case of one mother who called police to report her toddler missing. “As I’m talking to mom, I’m facing the back yard and I see some little legs sticking out of the doghouse. The child had curled up and gone to sleep with the dog,” he said. “You can get the helicopter up, but look in the cupboards first. Look in places kids would go. Don’t discount the bad things, but look in the obvious places and the not-so-obvious places first.” Though he’s now retired from law enforcement, he’s come full circle from his days heading up the Lakewood Police Department’s crimes against children unit. He says he’s proud of his career and has no regrets. “My motto is, ‘Do the right thing the right way for the right reasons.’ So I can look back and say I did that, and I will keep doing that.”

Law ramps up abuse reporting More people must offer safeguards for seniors By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com Although Colorado urges medical and other professionals to report cases of abuse of at-risk elders, it had been one of only three states that did not mandate it. However, starting July 1, 2014, SB 13-111 will require not only medical and law enforcement professionals, but others — including clergy and financial institutions — to report known or suspected abuse or exploitation of adults over the age of 70. Those who don’t may face criminal prosecution. While many of the county’s resources, such as its Adult Protection Team and 24-hour hotline to report abuse, are not new, spokesperson Hal-

ey McKean said the county is already ramping up outreach programs to educate and train those that will soon be required to report abuse. “Counties do anticipate an increase in our adult protection caseloads when the state’s new mandated reporter law goes into effect next summer,” said Arapahoe County District 2 Commissioner Nancy Sharpe, who was part of a statewide elder abuse task force that helped usher in the new legislation. Arapahoe County is home to more than 41,000 adults age 70 and older — a population that, according to the Colorado State Demography Office, is expected to double by 2025. Statewide, that number is expected to expected to increase 28 percent by 2017, and 142 percent by 2032. “The law is great, but it’s disappointing we had to pass legislation to get people to do what they should be doing in the first place,” said Karen Dennison, 47, of Denver, who works as

a contract home health aide. “I guess it gives us the flexibility to report things directly to the state, but I’m curious to see how a lot of these home health care company policies on reporting may change that.” Caseworkers found that 487 at-risk adults suffered self-neglect, 287 were neglected by their caregivers, 208 were exploited financially or otherwise exploited by a person in a position of trust, and 131 fell victim to some form of abuse. Most were over the age of 60, frail or suffered from dementia or mental illness. Among the most common incidents in 2012 were cases of self-neglect, neglect and financial exploitation. “I guess it’s a step in the right direction to make more people responsible,” Dennison said. “More people means more eyes. It can’t hurt.”

People in many fields will be required to report abuse When a law on reporting of elder abuse takes effect next year, people in the following categories, whether paid or unpaid, will be required to report cases of known or suspected abuse or exploitations: • Physicians, surgeons, physicians’ assistants, osteopaths, physicians in training, podiatrists, occupational and physical therapists • Medical examiners and coroners • Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and nurse practitioners • Emergency medical service providers • Hospital and long-term care facility personnel engaged in the admission, care or treatment of patients

To report cases of abuse or neglect, call Arapahoe County’s 24-hour neglect hotline at 303-636-1750. Reports can be made anonymously and confidentially. Adult protection cases are typically open for 90 days or less while the caseworker helps to connect the at-risk resident to community-based services to keep victims safe and supported. This could include applying for Medicaid and securing in-home care, housekeeping and transportation assistance. In some cases, the courts appoint a conservator to oversee the client’s financial assets and stop exploitation.

New King Soopers opens doors Belleview-Federal store replaces smaller facility

By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Shoppers were raring to go June 26 when the new King Soopers opened for business at Belleview Avenue and Federal Boulevard. “We had a line of people waiting for the doors of this store to open to the public for the first time at 6 a.m.,” said Jim Mastroni, store manager. “Customers have told me they are glad we are now open and they are glad to have us back in the community.” Banners, balloons and pennants outside announced the grand opening of the store. The new facility has about twice as much space as the former King Soopers that had served the location since 1960. Local resident Margaret Glover pushed her shopping cart, gathering up the items on her grocery list. “I have been waiting for this store to open since the old store closed last year,” Glover said as she shopped. “This is so much nicer than the old store. This store is brightly and well lit, plus the aisles are nice and wide. I live almost across the street, so this store is very convenient and I am glad it is open.” Rick Gillit, the Englewood city council member representing the store’s district, attended the grand opening. “This was a long time coming but the results are very nice. This is a store where my wife would shop. She wouldn’t have come into the old store,” he said. “I am a little surprised that so many customers are here today, but I’m not shocked because this community has been eagerly waiting for this project to be completed.” There was a grand opening ceremony

Nick Whiteman smiled and said a free cupcake was a bonus. “I needed groceries and this is the closest store, so I came shopping. I am pleased with what they did because I think this is really a great store and I am glad to see it open,” the Littleton resident said as he checked out the fresh fruit. “They have so much to choose from in this store. I came with a list but I have already picked up about half a dozen items that weren’t on the list.” The King Soopers at Belleview and Federal was one of the first stores in the Denver metro area. It was remodeled, but the size restriction kept the store small and limited how many items it could carry. King Soopers closed the old store in May

2012 and announced the plan to demolish the existing store and construct the new facility, which includes a pharmacy drivethru and a service station and will be open 24 hours a day. The room for expansion of the new store required negotiations to lease and demolish the small stores in the shopping center surrounding the King Soopers. Lease negotiations were successful, and stores such as Subway and the liquor store in the center moved to nearby locations. The construction cost about $17 million. The company also requested and received Englewood’s financial participation of $510,500 to cover the cost of public improvements to utilities. Englewood’s participation didn’t involve spending city funds. Instead, the council-approved plan will rebate 50 percent of the use tax on furni-

ture, fixtures and equipment and then annually rebate 50 percent of the sales and use tax revenues collected by the store for the first four years the store is open or until the $510,500 target is reached, whichever comes first. Russ Dispense, president of King Soopers and City Market, attended the grand opening. He said it was like coming home, since he worked at the original King Soopers store at the site in the 1960s, including during the 1965 flood. “We knew the old store was outdated and it was not meeting the needs of the community so the only realistic option was to demolish it and build a store like this,” he said. “We worked long and hard to make this happen. It was worth it because we have created a good, mainstream store with merchandise to serve the surrounding community.” Englewood City Manager Gary Sears agreed with Dispense. “The former store just wasn’t properly serving the community. So, King Soopers stepped up to provide a store that will serve residents in Englewood, Littleton, Bow Mar and the surrounding area,” he said. “The company did a great job creating a large store offering a variety of merchandise. This is a regional store and it is great to see so many shoppers here on opening day.”

Newell picked for leadership program denver Water gives back a day Democrat is only Coloradan to earn Henry Toll fellowship Staff report State Sen. Linda Newell, D-Littleton, is one of 48 state policymakers from across the country, and the only one from Colorado, selected as a Council of State Governments Henry Toll Fellow for the Class of 2013. “Individually, these leaders have a proven track record of accomplishing great things,” David Adkins, CSG’s executive director and CEO, said in a press release. “Collectively, they Newell represent the future leadership of the states.” The Toll Fellowship Program is a leadership-development program that brings winners to Lexington, Ky., for an intensive six-day, five-night “intellectual boot camp.” Newell said she hopes the program will help her find new ways to bridge differences. “Since taking office in 2009, I have fo-

cused strongly on bipartisan bridge-building through conflict-resolution and consensus-building programs I’ve started in Colorado,” she said in the release. “I deeply believe our country needs that, and the Toll Fellowship program experience could potentially help me expand those efforts regionally or nationally. I think experiencing the blue, red and purple viewpoints from across the country could also help me with the delicate balance of leading with a purple perspective within my Democratic caucus.” While each year’s program is unique, previous programs have included sessions on leadership personality assessment, media training, crisis management, appreciative inquiry, adaptive leadership and more. Continuing education is critical for everyone, Newell said. “We should all be lifelong learners in any profession,” she said. “The more professional development tools you have in your toolbox, the better service you can provide for your constituents.” This year’s program is Aug. 16-21. Newell said the high caliber of participants in Toll Fellows is a great opportunity for everyone involved.

Late-season snowfall results in eased rules Staff report

Thanks to an unexpectedly wet spring and good conservation efforts, Denver Water — which provides water to Littleton — says people can increase their watering days from two to three times per week, and that a rate increase is no longer a possibility for this year. “Our customers have responded very well to the call to use even less water, and we can finally be confident that enough water from the late-season snows has reached our reservoirs to bring them to reasonable levels,” Greg Austin, president of the Denver Board of Water Commissioners, said in a press release. “While the drought is not over, conditions have improved enough that customers may water a third day if their lawns need it. We all still need to do our part to protect against the possibility of another dry winter, and we ask everyone to continue to use even less.” The snow pack in both of Denver Water’s watersheds ended up above 90 percent of the average peak. Much of it ended up in the reservoirs, which are 92 percent full, on average. Runoff is ending, so they won’t fill much more. The utility’s reservoirs were about 91 percent full this time last year. “Reservoir storage is only one indicator of drought, and our reservoir levels can drop quickly when we don’t get much rain and snow,” said Jim Lochhead, CEO of Denver Water. “If this summer continues to be

Watering the right Way Denver Water is asking its customers to follow the usual watering rules: • Water no more than three days a week (there are no assigned days). • Do not water lawns between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. • Do not waste water by allowing it to pool in gutters, streets and alleys. • Do not waste water by letting it spray on concrete and asphalt. • Repair leaking sprinkler systems within 10 days. • Do not water while it is raining or during high winds. Other tips: • Use a day of rain to skip watering. • Only water the areas of your yard that are dry. For example, if shady areas look fine, only water the dry areas that get the most sun exposure. • Water two minutes less. hot and dry, we will be vulnerable if there is low snowpack in 2014. To manage our water supply, we must consider the long-term outlook.” The utility’s drought patrol team will still monitor Denver Water’s service area to educate customers about the watering rules. “The purpose of our drought patrol is as much about educating customers as it is about enforcing Denver Water’s rules,” said Lochhead. “The most frequent violation we see is customers watering in the middle of the day, which is wasteful because the water just evaporates. We ask everyone to be mindful of when they are watering.” For more information, visit www.denverwater.org.

Vote on tax hike taking shape Organizers plan ballot question on school funding

By Vic Vela

vvela@ourcoloradonews.com The tax initiative tied to funding of a major overhaul of Colorado’s school finance formula has been determined, and the campaign that’s behind it now has a name. Now, the real work for organizers begins: Getting signatures for a ballot proposal and, ultimately, trying to sell voters on the need for supporting about $950 million in new taxes that will be used to reshape how schools are funded. A committee that is calling itself Colorado Commits to Kids announced last week that they will work to put a two-tiered income tax increase on the ballot this fall. The tax initiative, which will impact higher wage earners more, will support the funding needed to enact Senate Bill 213, a major rewrite of the School Finance Act. The act, which was passed by the Legislature earlier this year, would create full-day kindergarten, provide preschool for at-risk children, and would put more money into needs-based programs for special education students and children who are learning English. The legislation also aims to increase perpupil funding for school districts across the state that supporters say would be done in

right system.’ Curtis Hubbard, of Colorado Commits to Kids a more equitable fashion than the current system allows. “We are eager to have a vigorous debate when the campaign begins in earnest,” said Curtis Hubbard, on behalf of Colorado Commits to Kids. “We’ve worked almost two years on this, trying to support the right measure. We think we’ve hit on the right system.” Right now, Colorado’s current income tax rate is a flat 4.63 percent, regardless of income level. The initiative will ask voters to approve an addition 0.37 percent in taxes on income earners who make up to $75,000 a year, bringing their tax rates up to five percent. Residents making more than $75,000 a year would pay 5 percent on their first $75,000 of taxable income, and a rate of 5.9 percent on income above that amount. Republican legislators opposed Senate Bill 213 during the recent legislative session and their opinions aren’t changing now that

they know what the tax initiative will look like. “A tax increase like this runs the risk of stalling this fragile economic recovery moving forward,” said House Minority Leader Mark Waller, R-Colorado Springs. Waller also wondered why the tax hike is needed, citing recently released revenue forecasts that project the State Education Fund witll have a balance of $1.6 billion for the coming budget year. However, state Rep. Sue Schafer, DWheat Ridge, countered Waller’s argument by saying the revenue increase is loaded with one-time funds that are meant for “rainy day” spending. “They want to play Russian roulette with my children’s future,” Schafer said of Republican opposition to the tax hike. “This is going to restore our school funding to where we were in 2008, when we had to make serious cuts.” Gov. John Hickenlooper has yet to make

a direct statement in support of the proposed tax initiative. However, the governor did say after signing Senate Bill 213 that he “certainly” would campaign for the ballot effort. Hickenlooper spokesman Eric Brown did not directly answer whether the governor supports this particular tax scheme. “Colorado has approved some of the most robust education reforms in the country,” Brown wrote in an emailed statement. “These are reforms the governor fully supports. Now, it appears voters will get a chance to endorse the changes and set a new course for Colorado kids. We look forward to following the petition process and continuing to talk to the business community and other stakeholders about these reforms.” Waller blasted Hickenlooper for “failing to take a stand” on the issue. “He’s not very good at making decisions and it’s always at the last minute,” Waller said. “When you’re the governor, you’re paid to be the leader. It’s frustrating.” Asked if Colorado Commits to Kids has Hickenlooper’s support, Hubbard said, “Not quite. But I think that it’s close.” “Everyone is on a different time frame,” Hubbard said. “It’s not frustrating. We appreciate the governor’s thoughtfulness.” Organizers have until Aug. 5 to collect 86,105 valid signatures from Colorado voters, in order to qualify for the November ballot.

opinions / yours and ours

Sterling Ranch merits approval, again Sterling Ranch has been a developing story for years. More than a decade ago, managing director Harold Smethills and his wife, Diane, began crafting their vision for developing 3,400 acres of land in northwest Douglas County. In 2009, they filed a planned-development application with Douglas County. In 2011, the project gained the county’s approval — but only after numerous public hearings and convincing commissioners they had a plan to satisfy concerns raised over traffic, density and water. Then, in 2012, a lawsuit by the Chatfield Community Association led to a district court judge’s ruling that the $4.4 billion project did not have sufficient water to break ground. Early this year, Sterling Ranch officials submitted a filing to the county stating that they had secured enough water to meet the requirements. If that weren’t enough, the state Legislature was busy this spring clarifying the very law the judge leaned on for his ruling. The

our view legislators’ modification makes it clear that developers need only to prove adequate water at each phase of construction, not for the entire buildout. The latest development in this story is set for July 10. That’s when county commissioners will once again be asked to approve the Sterling Ranch project. We have no reason to believe commissioners who sided with Sterling Ranch on the water issue more than two years ago won’t do so again. They certainly should. Sterling Ranch’s planning has been water-savvy from the beginning. Owing to techniques like rainwater harvesting, the development is expected to consume only a third of the water a similar project might.

question of the week

Are you safe on light rail? In light of recent assaults at RTD light-rail stops at Arapahoe County’s Nine Mile Station and Lakewood’s Lamar Station,

Colorado Community Media asked riders at Lincoln Station in Lone Tree if they feel safe riding the light rail on a regular basis.

“On a regular basis, I feel really comfortable. I do tend not to ride mass transit after 10 p.m. though … I’ll take a cab or get a ride.” — Erica Walton, Lakewood

“I feel safe. I ride every day from Colorado Station to Lincoln Station and back.” — Max Baca, Aurora

“Pretty safe, and I ride every day normally and in the summer every other day to get to classes.” — Dakota Edmonds, Highlands Ranch

“I feel incredibly safe. I’m disabled, so when the weather is nice and there’s not snow, I get a ride here and then I go downtown and I do a little shopping and then my husband takes me home.” — Terrie Sherrow, Castle Rock

Better never late than late In the midst of our hectic life and sometimes chaotic schedules there are times when we find ourselves running late for almost everything we do. As I found this happening more and more in my own life recently, I had to stop and ask myself, why? Was I not placing enough emphasis or importance on the meeting I was scheduled to attend? Did I believe that even if I was just a few minutes late that would be OK? Had I convinced myself that my time was more valuable than that of the person I was supposed to meet with? Or was I just cramming as much as I possibly could into my day and getting so wrapped up in a project or task that the time just slipped away and before I knew it I was already running late? I found myself justifying my lateness, not only to me but to everyone that was on my calendar. Making excuse after excuse until finally I realized that I was making excuses and making apologies for something that I could easily control. You probably have friends or family members that fall into this very same category. They are late for everything and always call or text with a reason for why they are running late. I have a few people in my life too that qualify as habitual late arrivers. So much so that we would have to tell the person that is chronically late that the scheduled event was starting 15 to 30 minutes earlier than it was actually starting. I am sure many of you use the same tactic for those in your own circle of friends and family who struggle with being on time. And here I was thinking, if I keep this up, if I continue running late for everything, that pretty soon people would start managing me in the very same way. I would get the invitation for a 7 p.m. dinner when the reservations were really for 7:30. This just comes down to commitment

and respect. Two things that I teach and coach on a daily basis, but was not applying in my own life. And really when I have this conversation with clients or friends we discuss awareness of where we are supposed to be, the commitments we have made for the day, and the people or clients we are scheduled to meet with that day. We also make sure we take into consideration the respect for their time and for their expectations. There are so many tactics to use that are helpful, including alarms or alerts on our smart phones to reviewing our calendars the evening before or very first thing in the morning each day. Again, becoming aware of where and when we are supposed to be somewhere or with someone. Now for all of you who do not struggle with this problem as you are always on time, punctual, and prompt, maybe you too can help coach those of us who have slipped and despite our best efforts show up late for everything. And for those of us who have slipped, this is one of those bad habits that needs to be addressed and eliminated as early as possible. Because the longer we allow it to go on, the worse we actually become. We go from being just a few minutes late to showing up 30 minutes late, or even later. There is an old saying that goes like this, Norton continues on Page 9

In addition, the development will bring a source of water for neighbors whose wells are running dry. But the 12,000-home project’s benefits go beyond water-consciousness. Consider some positive economic ramifications, as found by the firm Development Research Partners in a 2010 analysis: • Sterling Ranch is expected to create about 1,000 construction-related jobs per year throughout the entirety of the buildout process, which is estimated to last 20 years or more. Then there are the permanent jobs: at least 9,000 of them. • The economic benefit of construction activity is projected to be more than $400 million. At buildout, the community will be a driver of at least another $400 million of economic activity each year. And there are more reasons to like the project. Among them: • Sterling Ranch will bring new schools to the area, which will be utilized by children from neighboring areas like Roxbor-

ough. • Nearly 40 percent of the sustainable community will be set aside for open space, wildlife and parks. It will also feature more than 30 miles of trails. • It will include health care facilities, retailers and sports complexes that will be a convenience for residents and neighboring communities. • Sterling Ranch has devised an emergency-management plan, one lauded by the South Metro Fire Rescue District, and the construction of new roads will facilitate traffic into and out of the development. • Its density is not out of line with other communities in northern Douglas County. Perhaps as important as anything is that thriving Douglas County, which has become a prime location for employers and their workforce, is in need of more places to live if it is to continue to grow. Highlands Ranch, for example, is near buildout. The time has come for this story to include the development of Sterling Ranch.

Think I’m not cool? You’re getting warm I think most of us would rather be cool. I think most of us would rather look cool and act cool, and to say cool things. Cool people wear cool shirts. They listen to cool music. Know cool people. Drive a cool car. Eat at the coolest places. Go to cool parties. Go on cool trips. They have a cool dog and a cool hat. Cool shoes? Absolutely. I hear that word a lot, but no one has ever said that I was cool. I have known for some time that I am not cool. Cool people don’t own khakis. I own khakis. I own dirty bucks too. Cool people wouldn’t be caught dead in dirty bucks. I don’t think cool people face their cans. That means you shelve cans with the labels facing forward, just like they do in grocery stores. An askew label in my pantry gives me a headache. Most advertising is aimed at cool people, except for two-pound, bacon cheeseburger ads. Cool people don’t pig out. Cool people have cool watches. Cool people are always late. I don’t own a watch. I am never late. I am always early. Cool people are never early. Cool people are always on the phone. I am never on the phone. The coolest song about cool people is the one goes, “You had one eye in the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte.” I always thought she was saying “as you watched yourself go by.” Cool people never would have thought she said that.

I wonder if it takes more time and energy to be cool. Maybe. Maybe it’s cool not to be cool. Juno thinks Bleeker is cool, and about all he does is eat Tic Tacs like there is no tomorrow. Cool people would never say “like there is no tomorrow.” Are you old enough to remember when cool young men pushed up their sleeves? On their sport coats? One of them was on the Late Show and Letterman reached over and unpushed them. It was perfect. We pick on people who aren’t cool. It’s human nature, unfortunately. If you aren’t in, you’re out — and that’s when things can get tricky, all the way up to bullying. If you’re masculine-feminine or feminine-masculine, good luck. It’s 2013, but we still pick on people for all kinds of reasons. There is no such thing in the real world as live and let live. If you were to see me in a bookstore, you would never guess what I do.

Newspaper owner tells tale of survival Healey speaks before Littleton Business Coalition By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com The Littleton Business Coalition invited Jerry Healey, owner of Colorado Community Media, to its June 27 meeting to tell the tale of “Breathing New Life into a 125-YearOld Publication: The Littleton Independent.” Healey and the paper are like those celebrity couples who get married and divorced to each other over and over. But before his relationship with the Independent started, he had to divorce the Littleton Times, which he and his wife, Ann Healey Macari Healey, bought upon moving to Littleton from the East Coast in the early 1990s. But the Times was in a jealous battle with the Independent at the time, and they were leeching revenue from each other. “I started to doubt what we were doing here,” he said, paying everyone in the company but themselves, with a baby on the way.

When the Independent went up for sale, along with the Englewood and Highlands Ranch papers, he took note. Despite being just 30 and somewhat intimidated by the idea, he put in a bid and won. He brought along some Times employees, and the Independent thrived. There was a controversial “back to basics” movement afoot in the school district, which helped drive readership up to more than 10,000 subscribers. With the Independent in a comfortable spot, the Healeys felt they should get more familiar with the burgeoning Highlands Ranch, so they packed up their two kids and moved there. “It broke a lot of people’s hearts who knew us well,” he said. He eventually added the Lone Tree Voice and acquired the Castle Rock office that printed papers in Douglas and Elbert counties. “Sometimes be careful what you wish for, because I got myself into a situation I really didn’t like,” he said. “We made it eight years, but I’d really attached myself to the Littleton Independent.” When venture capitalists began poking around in 1997, Healey ended up selling. He branched out on his own ventures for a few years, but he remained on the company’s board and even ended up briefly back at the company as the publisher in the

Littleton office. By 2011, the economy had crashed, the bosses were making significant cuts to staff and resources, the Littleton office had moved near Interstate 25 and Lincoln Avenue, the Independent’s subscriber list was less than 2,000 and things were basically in chaos. “Littleton was on the chopping block for the private equity firm,” he said. The investors approached him to buy it back, and he did in February 2012. He bought back 13 papers, managed another six and has added three since then; the Colorado Community Media operation has 18 websites and 63 full-time employees. “But it still had this rich history,” said Healey. So he set out to set things right, increasing local news and sports coverage, hiring more people, finding creative ways to make

advertising more advantageous for buyers and more. He also moved the company back into its coverage area, to Highlands Ranch. “Littleton’s up about 500 subscribers, but it’s a tough battle,” he said. “The world has changed in the last 20 years. Used to be our best tool for increasing subscriptions was telemarketing, but most residents are now on the do-not-call list.” Healey believes building successful community papers takes a team effort. “The more you support us, the more relevant we become,” he wrote in a column last February. “And it is that relevance that will make us successful, no matter the medium, and help us remain the historical record for our communities and a force for improvement and progress.”

No change in city’s election method for now Littleton panel rejects approval voting, but issue could return By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Republican state Rep. Kathleen Conti joined Libertarian Frank Atwood in front of Littleton’s election commission June 26 to herald Atwood’s proposal to implement approval voting, but the members still rejected it 2-1. At first, it seemed the three-member panel might make Littleton the first governmental body anywhere to employ the method, which allows people to vote for as many candidates as they want instead of just one. As a result, they wouldn’t have to choose between the one they like and the one they think is electable. Alternately, they could vote for all candidates except the one they like the least, ef-

fectively casting their vote against that person instead of for the others. Conti threw out the example of the relatively moderate John McCain winning the Republican nomination for president Conti in the 2008 election. “The conservative voters ended up splitting their votes, and guess who slips through the cracks,” she said. She thinks it would allow elected officials to represent their constituents better by giving them a better idea who they are and what they value. “It allows greater freedom for the true intentions and true desires of the voters,” she said. Asked how it would benefit the nonpartisan city council elections, Atwood pointed to local factions like the Sunshine Boys and Citizens for Littleton’s Future, which are of-

ten at direct odds with each other. “Do not make the mistake to think that voters do not know the party affiliation of the candidates that are running,” added Conti. Atwood believes approval voting would lead to less mud-slinging. “You’d be less trying to portray your opponent as an extremist and yourself as a centrist, and more debating the issues themselves rather than trying to destroy your opponent,” he said. Commissioners Mark Crowley and John Hershey both seemed to be leaning favorably to the proposal. “There are a lot of apathetic voters who look at a ballot and see the top two candidates, but they want number four, and they know it doesn’t matter, because there’s no possible way that guy’s going to win,” said Crowley. City Clerk Wendy Heffner is the third member of the commission and the city’s election director, and she worries the pro-

cess would be confusing for voters. She thinks any change in voting procedures should come through the Legislature and the secretary of state’s office, even though Littleton is a home-rule city and could decide on its own. “I would like to be invited if they have any discussion at the state level. I want to see where they’re going to take it,” Heffner said. “I’m just thinking about the voters of Littleton, because they’re my responsibility. But it is an interesting idea.” Hershey ultimately cast the only yes vote. “I think it’s an interesting idea and definitely has some advantages to it,” he said. “I think this will sort of keep the issue alive.” He urged Atwood to bring it back after the next legislative session, during which state Rep. Jonathan Singer, a Democrat from Boulder, is expected to introduce a bill regarding approval voting.

Animals, owners receive diplomas Ceremony marks completion of Freedom Service Dogs training By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com There were a lot of smiles, quite a few tears and even some excited barks during the June 22 Freedom Service Dogs graduation ceremonies at Hampden Hall in Englewood. “This is a big day for Lori, Lola and I,” said Bill Schmitz, referring to his wife, Lori, and her service dog before the ceremony. “Lola, our service dog, will be a huge help to us. Lori has multiple sclerosis and Lola is always right there to pick up anything she drops. Also, the dog has her own portable phone that, when it rings, Lola picks it up and takes it to Lori. She is very much a part of our family.”

Chuck Flynn prepares to give his service dog Mader a treat. Flynn and Mader were among a dozen teams that received diplomas at the June 22 Freedom Service Dogs graduation.

He smiled and added that Lola even has her own shelf in the refrigerator. “The shelf is stocked with bottles of water,” the Arvada resident said. “When Lori wants a bottle of water, she tells Lola. The dog opens the refrigerator door and gently takes out a bottle of water and brings it to Lori.” Bill added the family has been Freedom Service Dogs supporters. He said there was an appeal for donations to cover the bills so a dog could have needed surgery on her front joints. The family donated to the project and the dog that received surgery turned out to be Lola. The family has provided a weekend foster home for dogs in training, and Bill has picked up rescued dogs from shelters and brought them to the Englewood Freedom Service Dogs facility. The graduation ceremonies for the Schmitz family and Lola was also a special occasion for Michael and Sheri Folsom, owners of Englewood-based Cowboy Moving and Storage. “I have always had dogs and we have too because we love them,” Michael said. “We met the people from Freedom Service Dogs a few years ago when they moved into Englewood. We donated some moving services to help them, learned about what they do and have been supporters ever since. We have included FSD and their dogs in many of our commercials.” It takes about eight months and costs about $25,000 to train a Freedom Service Dog. The couple said they admired the work of Freedom Service Dogs, wanted to help them with their mission and, this year, they decided to cover the entire cost of training a dog. “The dog we sponsored was Lola and it was a perfect fit when she was teamed up with Lori,” the Sedalia resident said. “It is so great to see Lola and Lori together and all the joy and help the dog brings. Words can’t do justice to the feelings we have when we see Lori and Lola together.” Sheri said they like the work Freedom Service Dogs does and they also like the fact that FSD rescues dogs from shelters so they won’t be put down but can be trained to help others. She added she’d like to challenge other companies to sponsor the training of a Freedom Service Dog. “Of course, all rescued dogs aren’t able to complete the FSD training,” she said. “But, when a dog isn’t able to complete training because of things like a love of chasing but-

Photos by Tom Munds terflies or squirrels, Freedom Service Dogs makes sure to find a good home for the animal. As a matter of fact, one of our dogs is Farley, a dog that wasn’t able to complete the FSD training.” Wisconsin resident Kevin Foster and his dog Brinley also received Freedom Service Dogs diplomas during the ceremonies “This is a big day for my dog Brinley and I,” Foster, a Vietnam veteran, said before the ceremony. “I read a book called `Until Tuesday’ that talked about how much a service dog could help people like me who suffer with PTSD. I signed up with FSD, was on the waiting list and now, almost a year later, Brinley and I are graduating.” Foster said he has already spent a lot of time with Brinley. “Being with Brinley is calming and the dog has already kept me from sliding

backwards in my mind to those really bad times,” he said. “We graduate, then head to the bus station for the 25-hour ride back to Wisconsin.” Chuck Flynn, another veteran, had similar comments about what having a Freedom Service Dog named Mader has meant to him. “I was getting treatment for PTSD at the Veterans Administration hospital and a doctor suggested a service dog might help me,” the southeast Denver resident said. “My big problems are intense flashbacks and nightmares. Since Mader came into my life, she comforts me, helps me keep calm, and the flashbacks and nightmares happen lest frequently and when they do, they are less intense. Mader is truly a blessing to me and I appreciate all the hard work that went into training her so she can help me.”

Boston firm buys Alta Aspen Grove Company is third owner of 17-acre site since 2007 By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Alta Aspen Grove has been sold by Wood Partners LLC to Berkshire Partners, a private equity and property-management firm based in Boston. Its Colorado operations are managed out of Texas, according to the company’s website. Berkshire is the third owner of the 17acre site west of Aspen Grove shopping center since March 2007. That’s when Quadrant Properties applied to rezone it from office use to residential. The company planned to work with development company McStain to create River’s Edge, which would have incorporated condos to the south and singlefamily homes on the north. City council approved the rezone after considering arguments of the sort still heard today — such as traffic, density, lack of revenue to the city from residential property and the instability of renters. Classic arguments came from those in favor, as

well, with young people and empty nesters clamoring for housing suitable for a childless lifestyle. Aspen Grove management was excited for the new customers, and light-rail riders were happy to have a nearby residential development. But in December 2007, McStain backed out of the deal, citing “the continued decline of Colorado’s residential market, tightening of the banking and lending industry and other longstanding commitments by McStain,” as the reasons for changing course. The company later went out of business in the midst of the housing-bubble burst. Quadrant sold the property to Wood Partners, a multifamily real-estate firm, for $47 million. Wood opened Alta Aspen Grove, a 280-unit apartment complex, in June 2011. “The site is flush with the types of features renters-by-choice want in this market,” Wood’s director, Tim McEntee, said at the time.”We wanted to make sure it fit well with our goals of being environmentally friendly, while giving residents the best in what this special area of Denver has to offer as well as unique perks they won’t easily find elsewhere.”

Cities’ sewer plant receives award tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com The Englewood/Littleton Wastewater Treatment Plant became the first facility in the nation to receive the Environmental Protection Agency’s gold-level award for the work being done with biosolids. Biosolids are the nutrient-rich organic material resulting from the treatment of domestic sewage. “This gold award from the EPA is for establishing and meeting all the EPA requirements needed to establish a biosolids management program. We are the first wastewater plant in the nation to receive this new level award,” Jim Tallent, plant treatment division manager, said during the June 26 awards ceremony.

planned number of units to 250 from an original high of 325 and split the proposed building into two smaller ones. “We were very open that while we hoped they would support us by the end of it, that wasn’t necessarily our point,” said Clay. But, he said, the end product reflects much of the input they got over the last year. City planners originally opposed the project, but reversed their stance with the changes and a dozen conditions they imposed on Alliance. Those include widening Bemis Street, installing a traffic light at Littleton Boulevard, and adding a small cafe on the corner to incorporate some retail. The public was not sold. “We, the people of Littleton, would like something that’s compatible. Period.

We don’t want something that’s compatible with conditions,” said Bingham. About 50 were there in opposition to Broadstone, with only five speaking in favor. Elizabeth Dosher was there to represent a key demographic Alliance says it would attract — a young “emerging family.” She looked around the room at the abundance of gray heads and wondered where those people would be in a few years. “We are the future of this community, and I think that we need to think outside of the box and down the road to when I’m 50, 60, 70, 80,” she said. “Encouraging new demographics to Littleton is where we need to be heading,” said board member Karina Elrod, who was more concerned about the project’s mass than its density. “I do believe a project like this would bring economic vitality to the city. I am in full support of that.” Some in the audience weren’t thrilled

at the thought of a bunch of renters of any age on the corner. “When we encourage a variety of housing stock and types of people, we may not get what we had in mind,” said Betty Harris. “Renters of any age will need roommates to afford the rent. The young who take the light rail to downtown (Denver) to work will stay downtown to shop for things and sex and entertainment. Littleton can’t compete with Denver.” Clay said 60 percent of the units would have two bedrooms and rent for up to $1,800 a month. There were all the usual worries as well — views, traffic, pollution, parking, overcrowding of people and pets, overuse of parks and amenities, noise, strain on infrastructure. “There’s a lot of reasons those places go downhill, and this one will too, eventually,” said Sharleen Williams. “You should fix the north neighborhood before adding to the problem we already have.”

As the name indicates, the Englewood/ Littleton Wastewater Treatment Plant is jointly owned by the two cities. It is a regional facility that serves about 300,000 customers in the south metro area. Several years ago, the plant bought 7,000 acres of farmland about 25 miles east of Byers in order to better manage application of biosolids. The land is leased to farmers who raise wheat and corn. The plant received about $52,500 a year in lease payments. Tallent said each year, about half the land is farmed while about half the land remains untilled. It takes about 1,016 truckloads to haul the 3,354 tons of biosolids to the farmland each year. He said the next step is to undergo another independent audit in October and, if the audit is successful, the treatment plant will receive EPA certification for it biosolids management plan.

Budget Continued from Page 1

“The definition of emergency did not include fiscal problems,” noted Myers. The general fund increased about 2 percent to $135.4 million. It pays for day-to-day operations and is made up of about equal parts property tax and state funding, and about 7 percent in miscellaneous revenue. But total general-fund revenues are budgeted at nearly $140 million; salary and benefits account for 78 percent of that. The capital fund, which maintains the district’s physical assets, is $4.2 million. That includes $2.6 million in current revenues and $1.6 million in beginning fund balances. The fund is expected to end the year at $1.1 million. The district is bolstering it with money from the general fund, $184 per student. With more than $80 million in capital needs, the district is weighing putting a bond issue to the voters this year. “I am worried about some of the issues going on in our buildings and how much longer we can drag them out,” said Chandler.

Now in its 85th year, Western Welcome Week began as “Homecoming,” providing an opportunity for family and friends to gather. Over the years Western Welcome Week has grown to a 10-day celebration with over 50 events and involving events presented by over 30 different organizations. These organizations help to create the honored tradition of Western Welcome Week.

When the training was over, the employees began implementing what they learned. “This is the first flag produced and came to us straight from the company that created it,” Tallent said as he held up the flag. “There now are four gold-tier award winners but we were the first and we are the first to receive the flag.” Managing biosolids is a challenge for wastewater treatment plants. For more than 30 years, the Englewood/Littleton Wastewater Treatment Plant’s solution to managing biosolids had been to place it as fertilizer on dry-land wheat farms. “We have worked with Colorado State University to have them test the soil, groundwater and air regularly since we began applying the biosolids to farmland,” Tallent said. “The annual CSU reports consistently reported the biosolids did not pollute the air, ground water or soil. It just provides the nutrients to grow great wheat crops.”

“The management program didn’t require major changes to the biosolids treatment system we were using. We just had to formalize the process according to the EPA requirements.” A flag signifying the achievement was presented to Tallent by Dick Kuchenrither, who is affiliated with the National Biosolids Partnership. In the presentation, Kruchenrither said the award was a result of hard work by all the plant employees. He said their effort has enabled the Englewood/Littleton Wastewater Treatment Plant to go one step beyond the EPA-mandated regulatory program for managing biosolids. Tallent noted the plant has received numerous EPA awards for biosolids management. He said the new system was introduced in 2011, and plant employees attended a year-long training program on the new system, funded by the EPA.

Where were you born? I was born in Salem Massachusetts, the “Witch City”! I am cludethe youngest of six children.

During my 16 years as a Realtor, I have earned several accredited specialties and designations, including Senior Real Estate Specialist, Relocation Specialist, Buyer’s Accredited Representative and Certified Negotiation Expert. By earning these important designations, I feel I am fully educated, knowledgeable, and confident in offering my Buyer’s and Seller’s the best real estate transaction and experience that they deserve. My passion is working with seniors as they have a wealth of knowledge and I always learn something from them!

What is the most challenging part of what you do? educat The biggest challenge I face in the current market is educating Buyer’s and Seller’s regarding the information they are ob obtaining from the internet, and how it IS NOT always current or correct information.

What is one tip you have for someone looking to sell a house? The one tip I have for someone looking to sell a home is to price your home correctly! Overpricing or underpricing your home is a huge money and time waster. Be sure to ask your agent to guide and explain “the right price”. Finding the right price in today’s market is a lot more than your “gut feeling” and your needs. What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy a house? The one tip I have for someone looking to buy a house is to get pre-approved with a good, reputable lender. Your lender can make or break a deal for you!

How to find the right internship R

ecent college grads have found the job market to be somewhat underwhelming. Gaining the attention of a prospective employer is never easy, and it’s even less so when the economy is struggling. One of the ways current students or even recent graduates can make themselves more attractive to prospective employers is to find the right internship. Internships are not always easy to get, and many of them don’t pay. But students who find the right internship often look back and recognize that their internship was their first step toward a rewarding career, and a step that provided valuable insight into their chosen field. To find the right internship, consider the following tips. Work with your school. Whether you’re in college or you’re that rare high schooler looking for an internship, lean on your school for direction and advice. Colleges and universities have career centers that can help you gain an internship. They can assist you through access to job listings and by providing advice on crafting resumes and cover let-

ters or tips on how to interview. In addition to your school’s career center, speak to professors in your desired field and seek their advice. Many professors likely have experience in the field outside of the classroom and might even still work in the field, be it full-time or as a consultant. These professors can point you toward job opportunities or give you advice on what prospective employers are looking for from an intern.

Start early. It’s never too early to start looking for an internship. In fact, many companies hope to have their internship positions filled well in advance. For example, if you’re looking for a summer internship, begin your search no later than January and continue that search throughout the semester. In addition to starting early, don’t just seek summer internships. Some companies make internship opportunities avail-

able year-round, so you might be able to get one that coincides with the school year, even if you had a previous internship with a different company during the year. Internship experience is invaluable, and the more of it you can gain the more attractive you are likely to be to potential employers after graduation. Do your homework. Chances are you’re working toward a degree in a specific field.

Research the leading companies within that field and learn about their internship programs. Visit each company’s Web site and peruse their job listings.

Do some networking. You might not have an expansive network of associates to tap into, but that does not mean you should go it alone. Talk to your parents to see if they or someone they know has heard about any internship opportunities in your chosen field. You might also be able to network via your school’s career center, which likely has an alumni-networking service that enables you to contact past graduates currently working in your chosen field. In some instances, these alumni-networking services can be an internship gold mine, as past graduates might prefer to hire current students from their alma mater as opposed to applicants from other schools. Competition for internships is often steep, and that’s especially so when the economy is struggling and even recent graduates are hoping to land internships. But students can employ several strategies to find the right internships and take their first steps toward rewarding careers. ■

Show takes cartoons to art realm ‘Rollin With the Homies’ brings ‘Peanuts’ influence to gallery in Denver By Sonya Ellingboe

if you go “Rollin With the Homies” will be exhibited July 11 to August 19 at Fascination Street Fine Art, 2727 East Third Ave., Denver. Everhart will appear from 6 to 9 pm. July 19 and 1 to 5 pm. July 20. (RSVP requested on those dates.) 303-333-1592, fascinationstart.com.

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Artist Tom Everhart enjoyed a long friendship with cartoonist Charles Schulz and was educated in new ways to use his fine art training as he worked in the studio with the “Peanuts” cartoonist. Everhart was encouraged to carry forward Schulz’s comic strip creations into the fine art realm and has exhibited the resulting paintings throughout the world, including at the Louvre in Paris. He will bring a new show, “Rollin With the Homies,” to Denver’s Fascination Street Fine Art from July 11 through August 19, appearing at the gallery from 6 to 9 p.m. July 19 during an opening reception and from 1 to 5 p.m. July 20. Everhart said it is a retrospective of his work as it evolved under Schulz’s influence and will only appear in Denver. In a phone interview, he described early meetings with Schulz. “He took me to his studio and we drew lines: three straight, three fat, three wiggly. He taught me more about lines. When you looked at the same

thing, you could see a difference, see things in a new way …” He observed that “happy may be somewhat deceiving — the work may be more easily explained by what it doesn’t have.” He thinks Schulz’s line work bordered on abstract expressionism at times and talks about how the beloved cartoonist continually referred to Picasso’s multiple-view images, where you see front and side at the same time. “He took you inside the strip — made you walk around,” Everhart said. Early Peanuts strips used perspective and backgrounds, but after 1960, he took it out and made you stay in the foreground, as did abstract painters of the 1960s. Characters are two and a half heads tall, abstracted from the art school formula for drawing people at seven and a half heads tall. “He was always afraid to use the word `abstraction,’ thinking people wouldn’t understand. “What Sparky (Schulz) did — he got me an agreement that I could respond to his

paintings for life.” Although the paintings are recognizable imagery, they have associated meanings, Everhart explains. “Does This Make Me Look Fat?” shows Snoopy blanketed with little flying Woodstocks. It actually speaks to overpopulation, the painter said. “I try to approach his work with different kinds of marks. First, brush strokes. Then dots, circles … It had to evolve and grow, although the subject matter is the same. It feels like he’s alive for me …” The inspiration for the Schulz-related paintings came to Everhart when he was hospitalized, undergoing chemotherapy for cancer. He had a handful of Peanuts comic strips Schulz had sent him in his hands, illuminated by bright light from the window, which almost projected them onto the wall. Schulz stressed that his paintings — and titles — must be different from the cartoons, involving Everhart’s insights and feelings. Each image can be recognized, but is very different. Lithographs of the paintings followed, at Schulz’s suggestion — as a way to get more work out for public view. After Schulz’s death in 2000, Everhart remained in touch with his family and continued to paint in his patterns of dots. Everhart is also consulting on a 3-D “Peanuts” movie that will be coming out soon. He lectures around the world about Schulz and exhibits his own related work.

Author advises reaching within Littleton practitioner spent 15 years on memoir By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “Happiness is an inside job,” said Angela Lenhardt of Littleton about her intuitive and healing practice. “When you seek from outside sources, you are let down. Our job is to uncover (resources of one’s own).” Lenhardt has written a memoir about her own experiences: “A Charmed Journey: An Inspired Guide to Personal Transformation,” which is available at Tattered Cover and Lakewood’s Mile Hi Church. The face on the cover is hers. She conducts an “intuitive and healing practice,” coaches, speaks at workshops and has an office near Interstate 25 and Hampden Avenue. It took 15 years to complete the book, which was published in November 2012 on her 40th birthday. In the last intensive year, she gave up some of her practice time to

complete it. “Life is unfolding one day at a time,” she adds. She meets people who need help and don’t know where to go — they need resources. She offers a series of six sessions — a package that includes both intuitive and body work and feng shui, drawing on her Eastern and Western experiences. She started out with a business degree, working as a stock trader until her mother passed away unexpectedly 16 years ago. A psychic told her to help people heal, to develop tools such as Reiki and massage. She left the office, studied reflexology, then traveled to Asia, studied at two schools in Thailand and did more spiritual work in China. There were also nutritional classes in the U.S. She has found emotional freedom, but not yet financial freedom, she says as she seeks speaking engagements, book sales and contacts. She can be reached at angelalenhardt@ gmail.com.

Some would say that Steve Weil, thirdgeneration owner of Rockmount Ranch Wear in LoDo, is one smart cookie when it comes to the Western wear biz. But his business brainiac status was put to the test June 26 when Mensa, the international high IQ society, ordered dozens of hats for its July convention in Fort Worth, Texas. This is not the first time they ordered Rockmount hats, according to Weil, president and grandson of Papa Jack (who was definitely a brainiac but used the term “egghead” liberally). Visit Denver spokesmodel Rich Grant also picked up one of the simple straw chapeaus on Wednesday. “I can’t swear that it’s made me smarter, but it’s the smartest looking hat I’ve ever owned,” Grant said. “I wore it while giving a three-mile walking tour to the visiting Japanese travel writers, and was met everywhere downtown with smiles, and compliments on what a `smart’ looking hat it was. I won’t leave home without it!”

Decker, James tie knot

Hunka-hunka Broncos wide receiver Eric Decker and his equally stunning fiancee and country pop singer Jessie James tied the proverbial knot June 22 in Castle Rock. The bride posted a handful of photos from the celebration on her Instagram account thejessiejames. The ceremony took place at St. Francis of Assisi in Castle Rock followed by the reception at the impressive Castle Cliff Estates, according to Internet reports. The cute couple (I’ve met them and they are cover girl and guy gorgeous) met through a mutual friend and struck up a phone relationship. The newlyweds have jumped on the reality show bandwagon by letting the E! cameras roll to capture their lives and loves on the new show “Love and Other Contact Sports” debuting on E! late summer. The series will “chronicle the sexy young couple’s road to the altar as they juggle careers, relationships, family and more,” according to The Hollywood Reporter. Decker reportedly received permission from Broncos executive vice president of football operations John Elway before selling his soul to basic cable. “He came in and talked to me about it,” Elway told reporters via www.MaxDenver. com. “I gave it my blessing.”

Restaurant RIP

When former Rocky Mountain News and Nation’s Restaurant News reporter Dina Berta walked away from her career covering the restaurant industry, she jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire. After a 17-year journalism career, Dina opted to join her husband, Frank, in a new culinary venture — Frank’s Kitchen — at 2600 High St. in Denver’s Whittier neighborhood. Doors opened on May 2011, and closed on June 24. This is what the couple posted on Frank’s Kitchen Diary: Goodbye and thank you. The end happened as quickly as the beginning. Just three years ago Frank was sliding a check across a table to our future landlords and we were in the restaurant business.

was sliding a check over to Frank. It was a down payment to our asking price. And just like that, we closed our restaurant. For all our stunned customers, friends and supporters let me tell you how we got here. I was not lying when you came in and asked how is the business and I said doing well. After about a year and half it was paying for itself. It probably would have turned the corner in the third year, especially if we obtained a liquor license. It was in the pursuit of a beer and wine license that we came to a realization about who we are and the kind of life we wanted to live. The alcohol licensing was going to take six months. We probably weren’t going to be able to serve beer and wine until November. Our lease is up in December. We needed the warm spring and summer months to recoup the investment in the license and product. That meant we would have to sign a new lease, most likely for five years. The thought of another long-term lease made us both sigh, heavily. A little too heavily. That’s when we knew. We have worked extremely hard and for long hours day in and day out since we opened. Frankly, we’re tired and did not want to keep going. Some people have the restaurant business in their blood. We had to admit we did not. This was no longer what we wanted to do with our lives. We listed the restaurant for sale on Craigslist.com. Joe Van Dyke, aka “Jammin’ Joe,” a blues guitarist and restaurateur from Virginia was our first serious response to the ad. Jammin’ Joe has owned and or operated several restaurants in his life. He carved out a pretty good reputation for barbecue back east and wants to do the same in Denver. He liked our restaurant and accepted our price. He plans to open in early July. Thank you everyone who supported us in our endeavor. We appreciated it more than you know. And thanks to our awesome employees. A few are staying on with Joe. May God bless all of you.

Athletes attend workout sessions About 80 Warriors work on strength, conditioning By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Twice a week, about 80 Arapahoe High School athletes get up early so they can join the Warrior Strength and Conditioning Camp. “The sports with a lot of athletes like football and basketball hold their own voluntary summer workout camps,” coach Eric Riordan said. “But, until a few years ago, there were no similar voluntary workouts for athletes involved in sports like golf and track. So, this strength and conditioning camp was created. We meet for a couple hours twice a week to help those athletes get stronger and stay in shape over the summer.” There were about 40 athletes on the Arapahoe High School football field for the June 25 camp. The group included swimmers, golfers, cheerleaders and members of the track team and the volleyball team. “This is only about half our camp,” Riordan said. “We split the camp into two sections. This group started today’s workout in the weight room. After an hour, they came out to the field and the group of about 40 who had been on the field went to the weight room.” The coach said the voluntary workouts are important for the athletes. “Of course, the athletes can go to the recreation center and workouts on their own,” Rirodan said. “But I don’t think most of those workouts produce the strength, conditioning and endurance benefits we feel the kids receive by taking part in the more structured workouts here at the camp. Also, having the camp helps the athletes get into the habit of working out regularly.” During the June 25 camp, Riordan put the athletes on the field through a variety of conditioning drills. For example, he split the group into two lines across from each other. He then distributed medicine balls and had the athletes in one line use a variety of methods to toss the medicine ball to the athletes in the other line. They were

He said once the timed drills were completed, the athletes would be doing some speed and endurance work on the track. He said having weight training as part of the camp is important to build strength. Plus, he thinks the weight training is particularly helpful for incoming ninth-graders because it may be the first time they have had someone coach them on how to properly use the weights and machines. Max Wilson, an incoming freshman, agreed with the coach about weight training. “I am a swimmer and I had my first experience with a coach in the weight room here

at this camp,” he said. “I swim sprint freestyle and backstroke. The coach helped me learn what weight exercises to use for general conditioning and what weight exercises to use to help strengthen the muscles I use in the events I swim.” He said a friend told him about the camp and invited him. Wilson said he was glad he accepted the invitation. “I am getting in good physical condition and I am getting stronger,” he said. “I feel the camp helps me begin preparation for swimming season and will help me swim well in all my events.” This is the third year Bre Jones has attended the strength and conditioning camp.

“I run track and I know the summer workout sessions help me a lot,” she said. “I manage the boys golf team in the fall season and then, in November, I begin running track with a club team that competes in indoor track until February. Then it is time to begin running with the Warrior team.” She said she is a sprinter and she feels the strength and conditioning camp helps her to get stronger and to build her stamina for the coming track season. “This year, the workouts on the field and particularly in the weight room have helped me get stronger,” Jones said. “I know I am in good physical condition and I hope being stronger will help me run faster in the coming indoor and outdoor seasons.”

Chauncey Billups’ camp focuses on big picture Highlights downplayed in favor of ‘real game’ By Jim Benton

Chauncey Billups spent many hours during his younger years in basketball camps. He now has his own camp, the Chauncey Billups Basketball Academy, which was held June 2427 at the Parker Fieldhouse.

like that at the basketball camps I went to.” Billups would gather groups of players and talk for several minutes, and all the campers seemed to pay close attention. “With the little ones, some of them are so small it’s almost like day care,” said Billups. “What I wanted them to get out of the camp was an appreciation for basketball. Then one day, they’ll fall in love with the game. It’s just fundamentals at this point. “The older kids are at an age where they were here because they really like basketball. You want to get them to the point where they can learn the real game of basketball. Not highlights, but the real game of basketball. That’s what I tried to get across to the older kids.” That was sometimes difficult. “Yeah, they think it’s all fun and games,” explained Billups. “They come, show up and just shoot the ball up as opposed to working hard, being a good teammate and being a fan of your team and not just yourself. There are a lot of different layers to this game and I don’t think they realize.” Billups, the NBA Finals Most Valuable Player in 2004, also showed campers the reality of the NBA: that if you make big shots, you are rewarded. He puts money on the floor and gives selected players a chance to

pick up the money if they make the shot. “The kids love the money shot,” admitted Billups. “My nickname is Mr. Big Shot. I wanted to give all the kids a chance to kind of know what it feels like to make the big shot, so we made up something called the money shot. “I have $5, $10 or whatever it might be and put it on the spot. There is a team that is picked out. When we blow the whistle and say go, they do whatever they want to do and we pick a team, basically the loudest, most obnoxious or most creative. “Every person on that team has a chance. If the first guy makes the shot and takes the money, I put more money down for the next guy. It’s a favorite of the kids. It’s not an easy shot for the little kids but a shot they can make. It’s a little farther than a three-pointer for the big kids.” Cody Brown, a student at Thunder Ridge Middle School in Aurora, benefited from the camp. “I learned a lot,” he said. “I’ve been going to camps all around Colorado. I learned how to get my shot off better and play better defense. The agility was important. Speed and agility is the basics of basketball, and then strength comes along if you are in the post. We almost won a chance for the money shot but we didn’t. You have to be the craziest to get a chance.”
