LEAVING THEIR MARKS
Council approves Hooters’ license Centennial residents voice concerns about Lone Tree restaurant at meeting By Jane Reuter

John Priddy goes for a top spot on Rock Canyon High School’s senior wall. On their final day at the school May 15, students from Rock Canyon High School’s class of 2015 put their handprints on the senior wall. The tradition began in 2009, with each year’s graduates adding a different colored set of prints. Students lined up to don plastic gloves, have their gloved hands painted teal blue and search for the perfect spot on which to leave lasting evidence of the time they spent at the school.

Since 2009, each Rock Canyon graduating class has left different colored handprints on the senior wall.
Before a standing-room-only crowd of concerned area residents, the Lone Tree City Council unanimously approved Hooters’ liquor-license application May 19. The council showed none of the hesitation some members exhibited during the May 5 meeting, when a motion to approve the license died for lack of a second. The council’s swift action came after comments from numerous people, most of them Centennial residents opposed to the business. Mayor Jim Gunning denied a motion from an attorney representing Centennial’s Willow Creek neighborhood to reopen a public hearing on the application, but allowed people to speak during the public comment portion of the meeting. Several people said they didn’t learn about plans to open the Hooters until after the May 5 meeting. The former TGI Fridays site on Yosemite Street in which Hooters plans to open is across County Line Road from Centennial’s Willow Creek, closer to those homes than to any in Lone Tree. “Nobody knew about the hearing that happened on the fifth,” attorney Neil Lipson said. “We just feel we would like to have been given a chance to speak.” Two petitions circulated in Centennial since the initial meeting gathered 198 signatures against the proposal. Hooters is a national chain famous for its chicken wings and “Hooters Girls” — waitresses who are typically young and lightly attired. Karby Allington-Goldfain was one of two Centennial residents who said they likely wouldn’t have bought their homes if Hooters had been nearby. “I think Lone Tree is a lovely city,” she said. “You have a reputation for the arts and culture. I think Hooters will really bring it down.” Several people urged the council to approve the application. Hooters continues on Page 9

MAD Greens comes to Lone Tree Colorado company’s newest location is in RidgeGate Shopping Center By Jane Reuter | jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Employees at Lone Tree’s new MAD Greens restaurant worked furiously during the May 14 grand opening to keep up with a ceaseless flow of customers. The company offers free salad on its opening days. Photos by Jane Reuter
Michele Myers of Castle Rock offers her son Abraham, 2, some MAD Greens juice while the two wait in line to eat at the new Lone Tree restaurant May 14.
MAD Greens cofounders Marley Hodgson and Dan Long were shocked by the lack of quick, healthy food available in Colorado when they moved here in 1991. They decided to do something about it, and they struck an instant chord with health-focused Coloradans while also landing on forefront of the healthy eating revolution. Now entering its second decade of business, MAD Greens, which operates more than a dozen locations, recently opened a restaurant in Lone Tree at 10002 Common St., near Sprouts in RidgeGate’s Lincoln Commons Shopping Center. Snooze will open in the space next door in late June. The “MAD” in the restaurant’s name comes from “Marley and Dan,” New York City natives who’ve known one another since first grade. “Both our moms were great cooks, so good food was sort of engrained in us,” Hodgson said. Their philosophy: Good food doesn’t need to be serious or expensive. “Eating should be fun,” Long said. To that end and in keeping with the restaurant’s name, they name their items after people who were famously mad. Thus: the Mad Molly Brown and Ty Cobb salads, and Annie Oakley sandwich among others.
Their food: Some of their produce comes from MAD Greens’ own small farm near Denver International Airport. Though the company plans to open its first out-of-state restaurants later this year, Hodgson and Long say they won’t lose their dedication to quality and freshness. “We never want to compromise the quality to grow quickly,” Hodgson said.

Parents attempt to survey teachers Anonymous boxes of cards didn’t get district approval By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com
SUCCESS AT YOUR
CONVENIENCE!
An effort to alert teachers to a parentcreated survey violated Douglas County School District’s policies, but the two women behind the survey are nevertheless getting responses. Jeanne Work Swaim and Debbie Gurley, frustrated by the district’s suspension of its once-annual survey, decided to do one of their own. The two wanted to give teachers an anonymous way to voice their concerns. Their survey was in the works before a survey financed by the teachers’ union — which had results released in April — and is unrelated, the women said. “Every single day, I hear something worse about what’s happening in the district,” Gurley said, adding she wanted to hear firsthand how the teachers felt. “We the parents have nothing to lose (by asksing). “I don’t expect the district to listen or change course. I wrote the survey to be informative to parents. Hopefully it will tell people exactly what’s wrong.” Gurley had been pondering the idea for a year, but wasn’t sure “how to get past the barriers the district has put up around the teachers,” she said. District policy prohibits the distribution of most non-district materials. Information intended for mass distribution at schools must first be approved by the district and adhere to its flier-distribution approval process. Gurley and Work Swaim did not go through the district-required process. Instead, they created a business card to send to teachers. The card explained that a special event was planned as part of Teacher Appreciation Week, and urged teachers to keep the card “as it will be your one and only ticket to this surprise event.” The event was the survey. The parents mailed boxes of cards to each district school, including a note signed “Appreciative parents” that asked office staff to distribute them in teachers’
MSU
in-school mailboxes. “We were aware that if we identified (ourselves) it could be stopped by the district,” Work Swaim said. “We knew that if we put our names out there ahead of time, or said this is a parent group, there was strong potential for a campaign to discredit us. We knew we’d reach more teachers by flying under the radar.” Some office staff members distributed the cards, but others first asked the district
for direction. “In this day and age of school safety and security, sending an anonymous package where the real source and purpose are unverifiable is not only concerning, but shows profoundly poor judgment and lack of consideration for the safety of our students and staff,” said Rich Payne, DCSD’s director of safety and security. The survey is published on Facebook sites frequented by educators, the women said. Though most of the cards didn’t reach
the teachers, the parents said teachers learned about the survey and responses are trickling in. “If people are unhappy, we want to hear from them; if people are happy, we want to hear from them,” Work Swaim said. The women aren’t yet sure what they’ll do with the information. “We may choose to present it to the board,” Work Swaim said. “Our primary goal is to present it to people who are voters in Douglas County.”

Safeway Continued from Page 4
On May 13, the Centennial store was marked up with bright orange signs, informing customers of its closing sales. Employee Jennifer Reagan has been with the store for 16 years, she said. “I’m going to miss this store so much,” Reagan said. “I live so close, it’s been easy to get to.” She said there’s been less business in the last few years, and that she has plans
to transfer to a store on Arapahoe Road, although her commute will be longer. George and Cheryl Varga of Highlands Ranch were filling up their shopping cart with their favorite Safeway soups — items you can’t get at competing grocers like King Soopers or Walmart, Cheryl said. “We’re very frustrated,” she said. “I’m not happy with this. We moved from Pueblo and that’s all we had there, so that’s what we’re used to.” Varga said instead of closing the store on Quebec, the company should have rebuilt it or updated it.
“It’s too old and small,” she said. The Vargas said they’d be following Safeway until the end, no matter where they had to do their shopping. “I just feel so terrible for these employees,” George Varga said. “People are terrific here, we know many by name, and they know us, too.” Emiliano Dominguez of Lakewood agreed and said there are a lot of items at Safeway you can’t get anywhere else. Dominguez lives closer to a King Soopers, but he chooses to shop Safeway because it’s near his work. “Their beer selection is the best; that’s
why I come here,” he said. “I’m guessing they just couldn’t pull in the right kind of revenue.” Safeway is making every effort to place store employees affected at other supermarkets, Staaf said. “This was a very difficult decision made after long and careful deliberation,” she said in a news release. “For more than a year, we evaluated these stores extensively and looked at options to improve their performance. Ultimately, our business analysis indicated that we needed to cease operations at these locations.”

In some cases, it’s all about the ownership Last week I attended and participated in a leadership retreat. There were many agenda items and topics that were covered over two days, but one topic really caught my attention: ownership. As I took part in the conversation and worked through the exercise of who owns specific responsibilities and functions within an organization I couldn’t help but think about how I think about ownership in my personal life as well. So even though ownership should be fairly obvious in the business world as roles and responsibilities, job descriptions and organizational charts help to define who in the company owns a specific function, many times true ownership slips through the cracks. Or worse, sometimes in a company or organization ownership often gets overlooked as we all too often play the blame game. It is always easier to deflect a poor outcome or a missed goal on another department or person in the company instead of owning it and being held accountable for delivering results. Another reason that ownership and accountability come in second place behind excusemaking is that managers fail to inspect what they expect. And when this happens, the tendency
is for people to take shortcuts, fall short on quality, and ultimately miss expected deliverables and goals. Now what about our personal lives? What happens when there is no company or organization or manager to hold us accountable for doing the things we want to do, Michael Norton should do, and even have WINNING to do? Are we owning it? I think for some WORDS people it is just as easy to point to other people, circumstances and events as a reason or excuse for not meeting a specific goal or following through on a project or commitment instead of owning it themselves. Some companies meet with success in spite of themselves, but truly successful companies excel when it comes to accountability and ownership. So what would happen if we excelled at owning it in our personal lives too? I mean, some of us get away with winging it or flying by
the seat of our pants and cruise under the accountability radar and still find a way to succeed. Could be short-term success, but some of us find a way to get by. But what I am talking about is truly owning it, and by “it” I mean all the things that we set our mind on, all of our relationships, commitments, hobbies and projects that we endeavor to pursue. In the absence of anyone else holding us accountable, can we inspect what we expect from ourselves? Maybe you are more of the Nike kind of person and “just do it.” But there is a difference between the Nike tagline, “Just Do It,” and owning it. They are certainly complementary because when we have the “owning it” part internalized, the “doing it” part will surely follow. So how are you doing when it comes to owning it? Whether it’s personally or professionally, and if you have any questions about how to “own it,” I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we live up to “owning it,” 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.
Assessing the real worth of advice No one wants to pay too much for anything. We think we need to get things “on sale” to get a good deal. However, when it comes to services of any kind, it can be a challenge to calculate the value for the cost, much less find a sale. The last time I got estimates for house painting or tree trimming, I was stunned. By the time you find someone reputable to do the work and make sure you get the best quality, the idea of a sale is long gone. Assessing value for any service is difficult, yet when it comes to financial advice, good service can be invaluable if it creates a better future. Investments are items you purchase for a cost. Here it makes sense to try and find a sale. On the other hand, financial advice is a service and you want the most reputable and the best quality firm you can find. An objective advisor is crucial for the more intrinsic value items such as achieving your personal goals. It is important to understand what advice
costs, but it may be difficult to assess the value if you don’t realize what the benefits are. One good example of this is a comment from the famous mutual fund manager Peter Lynch, who managed the Fidelity Magellan fund for years. BePatricia Kummer tween 1977 and 1990, Lynch averaged a 29.2 FINANCIAL percent annual return, STRATEGIES consistently more than doubling the S&P 500 index and making it the best-performing mutual fund in the world. He was concerned that the average investor in his fund during that period of time actually lost money. This occurred
Accusations have power, true or false There is a knock on the door. Two men in uniforms are standing outside, and one says, “You’re under arrest.” “What for?” “You know what you have done.” But you don’t know. It’s one of my worst nightmares. Variations of it have happened, just not the arrest part. Being wrongly accused happens all of the time, in life and in fiction. The best example in fiction might be Franz Kafka’s novel “The Trial.” A man is arrested and never told why, and readers never find out why either. At least Alfred Hitchcock explained things. One of Hitchcock’s central themes was the wrong man. In film after film, a man is accused and sought for something he didn’t do. “The 39 Steps” is a favorite of mine. Of course “North by Northwest,” and even “The Wrong Man.” I was watching Dr. Phil. (No comments.) A man was trying to prove his innocence. It was difficult to watch because everything was against him. I thought of “The Trial,” and my own experiences. The biggest was a 1963 murder case that involved me. Some people in Ohio, where it happened, thought I did it. The case went to trial in 2001, and the defendant was found not guilty. Many years later, a Colorado man thought he had figured everything out, and accused me. It was libelous. I’ll save all of that for another day. Some college students like to make things up about their teachers. Disgruntled students can turn the depart-
ment into “The Children’s Hour” just by going to the dean’s office. My hour was in 1984. I was called to the dean’s office, and I asked why. He said, “You know what you have done.” Craig Marshall Smith Out of respect for the dead, I QUIET tell you what DESPERATION won’t I thought of him that day, or what I still think of him today. What I have been through could have been a lot worse. The wrong man is released from a prison somewhere almost every week. There are many new technologies that weren’t available to investigators years ago. I watch “Forensic Files.” One man was imprisoned for 16 years for a crime he didn’t commit. The man on Dr. Phil looked guilty. It bothered me that I thought he looked guilty, without knowing the whole story. Did I think that Drew Peterson looked guilty, or that Casey Anthony looked guilty? Peterson is handsome and Anthony is attractive. This man wasn’t handsome. His eyes looked too intense, and his mannerisms were unusual. I am sure I would have looked like a zombie if that had been me. The man took a polygraph test. Smith continues on Page 9
due to poor investor behavior, jumping in and out of the fund at the wrong times. However, investors working with advisors are less likely to make short-term trades that ruin long-term goals. The difference in these long-term returns is hard to put a price tag on. When an investor looks back over several years of performance, it is virtually impossible to guess if they would have stayed the course without an advisor or not. Returns are just one of the components of a good investment experience. Addressing your goals and reducing risk through an optimum mix of holdings is even more difficult. Knowing when to make changes in your positions and where to take tax-efficient distributions is very challenging. Taking profits and buying the underdog is naturally uncomfortable and therefore best left to an objective party. And keeping an eye on markets around Kummer continues on Page 9
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Let’s stop passing buck to next generation A recent letter to the editor stated, “Dissent and free speech are welcome when they address city issues and [Councilmember Kim Monson’s] do not.” My response: Regional projects should be paid for regionally. At issue is partial funding, with federal grant money (tax dollars), of the Southeast Light Rail Extension. City politicians are lobbying that 45 percent of this $207 million project be paid by federal grants. Doing so co-mingles local and federal issues. And using federal money increases the project costs significantly. The Denver Business Journal states that 2004 voters approved a RTD 0.4 percent sales tax increase as the main funding for Light Rail Expansion. My vote is for: Fair and just transportation. It is not fair, equitable nor just that our neighbors, children and grandchildren foot our bill. Accurate data in which to make financial decisions. When I asked for ridership data, RTD provided 2011 numbers. Who spends $207 million based on 4-year-old information? Better efficiencies from our government. Per RTD, a $10 round-trip fare from Lone Tree to Denver actually costs about $45. For a family of four to ride to a Rockies game the actual cost is $180. We can do better. Politicians constantly say that Congress approved the money, therefore we must take it. Congress doesn’t have the money. We’re passing the buck on to the next generation. A 2013 Pew Research Center Survey indicates that 2 in 3 respondents said today’s kids will be worse off financially than their parents. We can do better. Recently, I was talking with a young man with a wife and darling 2-year-old son. He said, “Mrs. Monson, you seem like you are working really hard. Could you please do something about the 30 percent that government is taking from my paycheck?” I said, “I’m working on it.” Kim Monson Lone Tree City Council

State teacher survey nets mixed responses Douglas County’s highs and lows Evaluations spur concern; individual schools are seen as supportive, safe By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Results of a recently released state survey show Douglas County’s teachers feel safe and supported by their individual school communities, but have concerns about the district’s evaluation system. Concerns about evaluations are reflected by teachers statewide, but in higher numbers in the Douglas County School District. The Teaching, Empowering, Leading & Learning, or TELL, survey is given every two years by the New Teacher Center. The state Legislature uses it as a way to evaluate teachers’ working conditions. About 87 percent of DCSD teachers agreed their school is a good place to work and learn, slightly higher than the state average of 85 percent. Questions about teacher evaluations showed about 70 percent of Douglas County teachers who responded don’t think the process accurately identifies their effectiveness, significantly higher than the state average. The greatest difference between district and state teachers’ responses emerged in questions posed only to school principals. Almost half of Douglas County’s principals don’t feel the district has an “effective decision-making and problem-solving process,” and 57 percent disagree that the district has “an atmosphere of trust and mutual respect.” In both cases, that’s almost twice the average of principals statewide. School Board President Kevin Larsen said he’s encouraged overall by the results, and won’t ignore potential trouble spots. “It’s not all roses in every single category, but I’d say by and large the great majority of the survey had positive results,” he said, pointing to high marks given to professional development and ability to influence schoollevel decisions. “There are certainly some things we’ll dig into further where those numbers are not so high. “The evaluation part is sticking out as the one with the least amount of excitement or

“I’m disappointed and somewhat surprised the council hasn’t approved the Hooters application,” said Lone Tree resident Bill Robertson. “They offer a nice family restaurant, and the atmosphere you may be concerned about is really no big deal.” “I completely sympathize,” said Lynette

the world is time-consuming. Offering these services along with wading through research and analysts’ reports is more than a full-time job. I am not sure how you put a price tag on services that can make or break your future. However, it is important to understand what you are paying for, and therefore transparency is crucial in the financial arena today. Work with a registered investment advisor as they offer full disclosure on any fees associated with their services. The latest headline in financial advertising is something called a robo advisor. This is a computer that buys positions for you, which of course will be less expensive than personal advice. However, removing the relationship and the understanding of goals is what

Dr. Phil told him the results on camera. The man’s wife, who believed in him just like Jerry Sandusky’s wife believes in Sandusky, was sitting next to him. He had been accused of sexually molesting his grandson. I thought, “This is not a good idea,” and, “Why am I watching this?” Have you ever been accused of something you didn’t do? Have you ever taken the fall for something you didn’t do, to spare someone
buy-in.” Larsen believes some confusion is linked to state assessments; results from those are not this year tied to evaluations. The district evaluations introduced in 2012 are still relatively new, Larsen said, and may require adjustment. “That means we have to listen to and think, ‘These are some areas where we can work and see if they can be improved,’” he said. “We’re going to keep trying to do that. There needs to be continued bridging and understanding.” Meg Masten, spokeswoman for the group Douglas County Parents, said the responses related to evaluations are alarming. “Seventy-one percent of teachers in Douglas County disagree or strongly disagree that their evaluation identifies effectiveness,” she said. “That is not only going to bring down morale, but glaringly brings into question the ability of our evaluation system to effectively assess teachers.” One-third of principals feel the district doesn’t provide them with high-quality applicants; 18 percent of principals statewide feel the same. Principal responses showed Douglas County’s school leaders are less experienced than the state average. Masten also found those two items significant. “That’s good evidence our pay-for-performance system is not attracting the best and the brightest as the district has claimed all along,” she said. Larsen acknowledged the responses that show unease with district-level issues, but said he’s more concerned that teachers and principals feel happy and supported in their individual buildings. “If I’m working in a building and part of a bigger global group, what’s most important to me is what’s going on in my team, at my location,” he said. “If I’m given the choice of teachers are happy in their building, but maybe still coming to terms with what they feel about the whole district or even the board, I can live with that. I would take that over them being thrilled with me, and not having a great relationship or trust in the person at their school.” School board members last month criticized a survey financed by the Douglas County teachers’ union that showed low

There will be no one to counsel investors when times get difficult.

AWARDS MEDAL OF VALOR Dan Palermo Kevan Nichols
Staff report Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock used examples from 2014 to underscore the dangers faced by deputies every day they put on the badge. One deputy wrestled a .45-caliber pistol from a man bent on suicide by cop. Another pulled two people from a burning car. Two more braved treacherous terrain and weather conditions to reach a hiker who was badly injured in a fall. Others dismantled drug rings, performed cell extractions or streamlined emergency responses. They might seem rare, but these events and many others occurred in Douglas County in 2014.

Farmers markets focus on freshness Venues offer best of local goods well into autumn By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com The announcement of a new farmers market in the area led us to look up what else is available. We’d be glad to hear of others we have missed in the south suburban area.
Sana Hamelin, owner of The Denver Cat Company, Denver’s only cat-friendly cafe, was served a legal hair ball May 7 by a customer claiming that one of the resident felines bit her hand in Penny Parker February, according to a story on MILE HIGH the Eater Denver LIFE website (www. denver.eater. com). “After it became apparent that the alleged cat bite was causing a stir, Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue, the original cat adoption partner, terminated its business dealings with the cat cafe,” according to the Eater story. “Since then, For the Love of Paws and Planet Pet stepped in to provide kitties for adoption at this feline-friendly spot.” Hamelin took to Facebook to plead her case to fans. The post said: “Guys, I’m having a very hard time. Although I’m working, all I can do is serve customers and then take breaks to cry. … For some perspective on how hard this solitary endeavor of starting and running this rescue effort has been for me, consider that I drive a wreck of a truck that I got off Craigslist and I shivered through the whole winter because it doesn’t have heat (and now I’ll sweat through the whole summer because it doesn’t have A/C either). I never have a weekend off, I live in a tiny apartment, and I haven’t taken a vacation in over three years. I’m tired.” You can donate by going to www. denvercatco.com/donate/, or use the Go Fund Me site at www.gofundme. com/u3kd7g8.

The power of big flower
Price Davis, Denver-based master craftsman and artist, recently installed the Denver Lily, a nearly 30-foot-tall sculpture, at Denver International Airport. The three-piece, three-story sculpture, comprised of a base, flower pot and a stemmed flower with pod and leaves, is made of hand-forged sheets of steel that were stained and powdercoated. The sculpture is part of Davis’ “Global Peace Through Art” initiative. “We must celebrate the skilled artists that bring us beauty in our everyday lives. Art should inspire and take into consideration the diversity of its viewers,” Davis said about the initiative. The lily, a symbol of relationships and friendship, will welcome travelers to DIA through July.

Lisa Paterson, owner of The Briarwood Inn, a Colorado fine dining restaurant since 1979, has announced that the restaurant is launching a new phase with the hiring of Chef Jeff Jones, previously executive chef of Parallel 17.

THEY SAID IT: UNIQUE – “Because we have a pretty diverse class as far as where everybody is going after graduation. There are even a lot of kids going to other countries.” — Tori Allen, Littleton High School
DETERMINED – “Our students work so hard both in the classroom and on the field. We are constantly looking ahead to be as successful as possible.” — Walker Crowley, Cherry Creek High School
RELENTLESS – “We faced so many challenges and changes but we stayed positive and succeeded.” — Dolly Ostrowski, Englewood High School
RIDICULOUS – “Both good and bad. We’ve been one of the rowdiest classes but also one of the smartest.” — Kelly Gold, Highlands Ranch High School
TOGETHER – “Our class song is ‘We’re all in This Together.’ It’s fitting because at Legend, we really are a family.” — Zach Lyman, Legend High School
RESILIENT – “Through the class of 2015’s four years at Chaparral, seven members of the Chaparral family have passed away… rather than falling to the struggle or the pain, the class of 2015 came together and rose up to support those in need…” — Cara Redalen, Chaparral High School

Kirsten Delany walked out of Highlands Ranch High School for the last time on crutches, the result of an injury suffered during a soccer game. It’s a reflection of the action-packed life she led during her four years there, a life that included soccer games, mission trips, dances and academic achievements that landed her third in her class. Delany will leave her family and friends behind in the fall when she attends Palm Beach Atlantic University in West Palm Beach, Fla. The prospect of moving so far from home to start the next phase of her life is both exciting and “a little scary,” she said. But since she hopes to someday work abroad, striking out into new territory for college seems a good first step toward that long-term goal. Delany wants to major in special education, and combine that with her love of doing mission work. “I really want to work for a nonprofit

I’ve lived here in Parker g for most of my life — 13 years y to be exact. My g mom and dad, and my brothSerrano er Joel moved here when I was r young to pursue an education. I go out with my friends to random places every weekend and on weekdays I try to “study.” I work at Sky Zone, and as a 17-year-old, I’m graduat-

And it’s important to know this about me, because that relationship is the source of my motivation, my hope, my morals, my peace and my joy. I would not be the person I am if I didn’t have the knowledge that God lives, and He absolutely loves you and me completely. What was the best thing about high school? The best thing about high school is that I was offered so many opportunities to grow, every single day. This season of my life is essentially important in me establishing myself, and the opportunities I have had to grow mentally, emotionally, spiritually and socially have been incredible. There will never be another season of life quite like this one. The best part of high school is just being young,

Brianna Bradley has collected years of memories during her time at Rock Canyon High School. Some are in the form of photographic images displayed in the school yearbook, for which she served as editor. Others are preserved only in her mind, and will go with her as she starts the next phase of her life at University of Colorado-Boulder. Brianna became intrigued with journalism her sophomore year, eventually becoming a yearbook editor. As a senior, she shadowed a Bradley Denver Post photographer for a semester, getting behind-the-scenes views of Denver Broncos and Nuggets games and other events. Bradley will major in either journalism or biology at CU.

What are you most excited about as you prepare for the next chapter of your life? I am most excited to be challenged. I have come to look forward to challenges in the future, because those that I have faced in the past have been so valuable. I am excited for the grind of hard college classes. I am excited about learning about how to be completely independent and self-reliant. I am excited to learn how to become a better friend, and sister, and daughter, and student. I am just excited to enter a new chapter, which will stretch and shape me into a better version of myself! I am just so excited to LIVE, and am ready to take the identity I have created in high school and add to it. Life is beautiful.
If you really knew me, you would know this… I would want people to know that I’m a really dedicated person. Hard work pays off. I want to be the best I can so others can enjoy it.
What was the best thing about high school? Always having teachers there to help me through my schoolwork and other difficult times. I feel really connected to a lot of my teachers. I could turn to them if I needed help, and they were very inspiring. That’s one of the things I’ll miss about Rock Canyon.
What are you most excited about as you prepare for the next chapter of your life? I’m definitely excited to see what I eventually go into as a profession, where I find myself, whether it be in science or journalism, who my friends will be, and just moving into a whole new world.

If you really knew me, you would know this…. They would know that I am very hard on myself, when I get a goal in
mind I will do everything I possibly can to try to reach that goal. When people think of me in high school, I was always the girl lifting and throwing. If I want to be known by anything, it’s that I will be known as the girl who worked so hard.
What was the best thing about high school?
My favorite thing about high school was track and field and competing on our track team for the Eagles and with the coaches. I think all my greatest highlights in high school have been while competing for Valor.
What are you most excited about as you prepare for the next chapter of your life? I am looking forward to be able to throw hammer because that is my main event. I only get to throw it once or twice a week. In college, that is going to be my main event. So I will be able to do that more and I am really excited.

Deanna Joplin creates a quilt in a 19th century “Carolina lillies” design.
Quilters piece together good times Highlands Ranch group meets twice each month By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com The Highlands Ranch Quilting Bee, organized in 1995, is a unit — a “bee” — under the umbrella of the large Arapahoe County Quilters Guild. The guild has a “beekeeper,” who helps newcomers find the bee most suitable for them in terms of time and location of meetings. The Highlands Ranch Quilting Bee meets
twice a month at the Jamie Larue Highlands Ranch Library’s Shea Meeting Room, on the second and fourth Wednesdays. Prospective members are welcome. (Contact founding member Lanie Tiffenbach, 303-791-0086, tiffenbach@comcast.net.) In addition to creating quilts for family, congenial members create a number of charity quilts to give in the community. In early June, a group of colorful baby quilts will be presented to the neonatal unit at Sky Ridge Medical Center in Lone Tree. Scraps for these donated quilts come from members and the community. During our visit to an April meeting, members laughingly agreed that “people dump fabrics on our doorsteps!”
RED ROCKS CONCERTS
Meetings alternate between demonstrations of technique and design and what they call “work sessions” — which we visited. Sewing machines were ready to piece and members conferred with a member who was placing pieces on a wall, debating about the best arrangement of blocks and binding for the edges of her quilt-to-be. Another member, Deanna Joplin, had brought a work in progress to stitch on, in a pattern called “twisted windmill,” stretched in a quilter’s hoop. The walls and tables were covered with an array of quilts large and small — a most happy place to spend an afternoon, as well as a spot for conversation about new ideas and techniques. These women gather to stitch and talk with each other just as their grandmothers did a century ago, treasuring the social aspect of the quilting bee. In 1998, a group of members made three smaller quilts to decorate the new Highlands Ranch Library, before it was completed, making 45 individual like-sized blocks from various patterns, with a unifying blue order.
FESTIVAL OF QUILTS Quilt lovers will want to visit the Arapahoe Quilters’ beautiful “Festival of Quilts” in June at First Plymouth Congregational Church, 3501 S. Colorado Blvd. (at East Hampden Avenue) in Cherry Hills Village. The two-day event will be held June 12 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and June 13 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is $6 adults/$2 children.
Current members of the Highlands Ranch Quilting Bee, from Highlands Ranch, Littleton, Centennial, Lone Tree, Parker, Denver and Lakewood, are: Margarita Bosch, Lanie Tiffenbach, Charlotte Updike, Deanna Joplin, Alma Lee, Karen Chomyak, M’Liss Hunter, Jean Gibson, Sandy Honan, Robbie Steinberg, Meg Dalton, Elizabeth Bradac, Lynn Emch, JoAnn Foster, Nancy Lothringer, Kat Lents, Brenda Oenbring, Jane Nelson, Penny Stanaford, Christina Manthey and Nancy Montague.
Writer bases work on lives of her ancestors Tiffenbach’s family roots go back to German immigrants By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com Stories of Sophia, Henrietta, Louisa, Albertina, Magdalena, Carolina and Eliza are based on Highlands Ranch writer Lanie Tiffenbach’s widespread research and genealogical study about her Minnesota German immigrant foremothers. She writes that she used the material she had accumulated and wove fictional stories based on family lore, social and regional history — enhanced by her knowledge of quilting. While there are similarities — hardships and joys of family life in 19th-century rural Minnesota, frequent pregnancies, winter blizzards, Indian visits and scares — each story has a distinctive format. Minnesota native Tiffenbach, a founding member of today’s Highlands Ranch Quilting Bee, has a personal collection of antique quilts, family photos and vintage photographs that illustrate her fictional, but realistic stories about ancestors who lived in and around New Ulm, Minn. “Sophia’s Story” is based on the life of Tiffinbach’s great-great-great-aunt Albertina Stue Otto, born in 1815 in East Pomerania, Prussia — the first known family immigrant to America from Europe. Sophia, her husband, Christoph, both in their 40s, and their six children, discouraged by the lack of opportunity in Germany, embark on a difficult journey in steerage to seek a better life in America. Sophia’s description of the sea journey in a letter to her mother leaves one amazed that they survived to arrive in New York. They first travel to Chicago by train, where Christoph, a teacher and pastor, finds a teaching position and the older children have jobs. They plan to save money and travel to Wisconsin to buy a farm. And, Sophia is pregnant again. She also had made a friend who is a quilter and learns to use her scraps and worn-out clothing to create patchwork quilts. It is a new concept for Sophia, which contributes greatly to her happiness due to the quilts’
beauty and the sociable aspect of stitching and chatting with another woman at times — a joy Tiffenbach shares today in her association with the Highlands Ranch Quilting Bee. The oldest sons go ahead to Minnesota to work and hopefully purchase a farm by 1858. Baby Louisa is born and in 1859, farmland is purchased. In December, Sophia is piecing a Log Cabin-patterned quilt and planning to move with the three younger girls to Minnesota, while Christoph and the two older girls stay longer in Chicago to earn money. In May 1860, she and the children, after a train trip to St. Paul, take a steamboat down the Minnesota River to St. Peter, where the sons met them with an oxen-drawn wagon to take them to a partially completed cabin on their beautiful farmland. She continues to quilt in her precious spare time as the family gradually acquires livestock and plants crops and a garden, and the boys also hunt and fish for food. She meets Native Americans who have been deprived of their land, and a flock of blackbirds demolishes the family’s crops. Lincoln is elected president and the Civil War begins in the South. In 1861, Christoph and the older daughters arrive and the story goes on through letters to the mother in Germany, with details of farm life and the parents’ hope that their older sons will not enlist, as well as accounts of the Great Sioux Uprising. The stories continue through one by Sophia’s youngest daughter Louisa Otto, who writes in her diary from 1871 to 1908, as she marries and raises a family where nine of 12 children survived. The final chapter is about Eliza Peters Meyer, Tiffenbach’s great-grandmother (her mother’s paternal grandmother), who emigrated from Germany in 1884 with her husband and son. She, too, was a quilter, and Tiffenbach offers her story as a memoir, written in 1939. Meyer family farms remained in the family after 100 years. Tiffenbach is scheduled to speak to the Highlands Ranch Genealogical Society in September about her book and related research. It is available from her at tiffenbach@gmail.com, 303-791-0086, and at Tattered Cover Aspen Grove.

New doughnut shop debuts in Lone Tree Locally owned business offers Texas-style sweets By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Not a Krispy Kreme fan? Or just need some variety in your doughnut diet? Check out Mr. Donuts on Maximus Drive just west of Yosemite Street in Lone Tree. Owned by Centennial residents Soon Lee and Myung Kim, the shop features Texas-style doughnuts, pastries and some limited lunch items. Lee and Kim are originally from South Korea, and they moved from there to Texas, where they learned to make doughnuts. “A lot of customers come by and they say Mr. Donuts are better than Krispy Kremes,” said family member Saeahra Lee. Mr. Donuts is located at 8854 Maximus Drive, in the space briefly occupied by Arch Pizza. The pizza company, which opened the Lone Tree site in December 2013, closed all three of its Denver-area locations in late 2014.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
The owners make about 1,000 doughnuts and other items daily, including croissant breakfast sandwiches, sausage rolls and a wide variety of doughnuts.
HOW THEY DO IT
Lee and Kim turn in for the night at 5 pm., get up at about midnight and head to the shop to start creating their sugary delights.
HOURS OF OPERATION
Monday through Thursday, 5 a.m. to 1 p.m.; Friday, 5 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday, 6 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The words of the songs were often stories from the Bible that told about freedom and a hope for a better future. The influence of the spirituals became the basis for the blues. Born out of African rhythms and combined with instrumentation the blues are about personal struggle and perseverance, and have become an expression of cultural and political rebellion.

Only 93 Air Force pilots flew the SR-71, which served as the country’s premier spy plane for 25 years. Watson was the only African-American officer in Air Force history to become a part of the SR-71 program, while Shul, after his plane went down in Vietnam, spent a year in a burn hospital, recovered, and went on to pass the astronaut physical required to pilot the plane that flew above 90 percent of the earth’s atmosphere. Wings of Hope is a nonprofit organization that was launched in 2012 by the founding mayor of Castle Pines, Maureen Shul, after losing her brother and mother to pancreatic cancer within months of one another.
Staff report Wings of Hope for Pancreatic Cancer Research will host an evening with spy plane pilot Brian Shul and navigator Walter Watson. The event, which will raise money for pancreatic cancer research, will be at 6 p.m. May 28 at The Lone Tree Arts Center. A silent auction, hors d’oeuvres and cocktails will precede the presentation.

jects and light, she designed curved corrals to reduce stress, panic and injury in animals that are being led to slaughter.

Rock Canyon advances in state tourney Jaguars win twice in elimination games By Jim Benton
jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Rock Canyon baseball coach Tyler Munro had a couple hunches that paid off for the Jaguars. Heading into the doubleelimination portion of the Class 5A state baseball tournament, Munro elected to reverse his pitching order with his three senior pitchers, starting Josh White, typically the third hurler, in the first game followed by Chris Given and Bryce Dietz. White, making his first start of the season, pitched a complete game in a 3-2 loss on May 16 game to Mountain Vista. Chris Given came up with big pitches
when needed in a 7-6 win over Pine Creek May 17 at the Regency Athletic Complex at Metro State. Rock Canyon stayed alive in the tournament as Dietz pitched the Jaguars to a 5-1 win to eliminate Cherry Creek in a second game on May 17. “Each kid wants the ball and wants to be in that spotlight,” said Munro. “I threw our No. 3, then our No. 2 and our No. 1. We probably won’t do that again. We’re going to go in with our guns blazing.” Munro also moved sophomore Matt Given, Chris’ younger brother, up and down in the batting order, another move that paid dividends. “I moved him from the two to the five hole, and two to the four hole, because I kind of had that hunch that I wanted to put him into some RBI situations,” explained Munro. “It worked out.”
Matt Given, batting fifth in the lineup, drove in four runs against Pine Creek and had another RBI hitting in the cleanup spot against Cherry Creek. Key moments: Chris Given, who induced 10 ground-ball outs, got a strikeout with the tying run at the plate in the sixth inning against Pine Creek and another strikeout with the tying run on second base in the seventh frame against the Eagles. Rock Canyon scored five runs in the first two innings against Cherry Creek, and Dietz didn’t give up a hit to the top three batters in the Bruins lineup. Key players/statistics: Matt Given was a double shy of hitting for the cycle against Pine Creek. In the two games on May 17, he was five-for-seven with five RBI. “I like the No. 2 spot, and I really don’t know a reason why,” said Matt Given. “Someone men-
tioned I was a double away from the cycle, but I tried to keep it in the back of my mind.” Matt Given was called out of strikes in his fourth at-bat against Pine Creek. Chris Given went five-for-seven in the two May 17 games, and White smacked a three-run homer in the second inning against Cherry Creek. They said it: “It was a great day. It’s nice when it works out that way,” said Munro of the two May 17 wins. “I don’t think one person had any thought we were going to lose the games,” added Matt Given. Going forward: Rock Canyon (20-4) plays Chatfield (14-10), the one undefeated team remaining in the tournament, at 3 p.m. May 22 at All-City Stadium. Mountain Vista and Grandview play at noon May 22 at All-City.
First-half drought costly for Valor in title game Aspen defeats Eagles in lacrosse championship By Jim Benton
jbenton@ColoradoCommunityMedia.com Nobody could have blamed Valor Christian coach John Grant Jr. from picking up a lacrosse stick and showing his team what to do during the first half of the Eagles’ Class 4A championship lacrosse game against Aspen May 15 at Sports Authority Field at Mile High. Grant Jr. was a top player in the college and pro ranks, but he couldn’t do anything for Valor’s first-half woes against Aspen, which handed Valor its first setback of the season by earning a 17-12 victory in the title game. The Eagles found themselves behind 9-2 at halftime, and they couldn’t recover despite pulling to within two goals in the fourth quarter. The Skiers scored five of the next seven goals to wrap up the title. “It was just nerves,” said Grant Jr. “I’d love to play these guys again. I’m proud of the effort that our team showed.” Key moments: Valor went 6:41 without scoring as Aspen netted seven consecutive goals to grab a 9-1 lead before Ryan Russell scored his second goal of the first half for the Eagles. The Eagles went on to score the first five goals of the third period, but the Skiers responded with three of their own. “It was tough to give up nine goals and be down 9-1 to come back and win,” said senior attack Don Provost. “They were a great team, but we battled back in the second half and tried to make it interesting, and I’d like to

Russell tallied three goals to give him a season total of 49, and sophomore Grayson Goodyear had two goals against the Skiers. “They were getting the faceoffs, their offense was possessing the ball and scoring in the first half,” said Provost. “We were making
stupid turnovers. It made it hard for us to get the ball to score.” They said it: “It was a great season,” Provost said. “Going undefeated into the playoffs, beating teams we’ve never beat before, there was a sense of unity. Most of that goes to our coach. I know he was a great player. As hard as it sounds to say, he might be a better coach.”

DOUGLAS COUNTY TRACK
Valor’s Showalter leads list of state champions
Local teams, athletes bring home state titles
By By Chase Ellis
cellis@coloradcommunitymedia.com
Haley Showalter came in to the state track and field championships at Jeffco Stadium as the 4A favorite in both the shot put and discus, and she walked away with a state title in each when the meet wrapped up on May 16. Not only did Showalter win titles, she did so in impressive fashion. She won the shot put by almost 7 feet, with a throw of 47 feet, one-half inch, and the discus by 20 feet, with a throw of 158 feet, 5 inches. “I threw 47 (feet), I was really excited because that was a three-foot personal record. I really wanted to get the state record, but I am really happy with the PR,” said Showalter after her domination in the Class 4A girls shot put, in which she finished just 2 inches shy of the Class 4A state meet record. Showalter was one of 11 athletes or relay teams in the area to bring home state titles in this year’s championships, but she was the only one to bring home two. Lutheran’s boys squad won the team state championship in 3A, one year after winning it all in 2A, behind Matt Hanson’s first-place finish in the 110-meter hurdles, Kharon Hall’s victory in the triple jump, and a win from the 4 x 200-meter relay team. Valor’s boys team claimed one win at the track and field championships, with a victory in the 4 x 200-meter relay as Ben Waters, Danny Rambo, Bubba Watkins and Vincent Hood teamed for the win. Waters was also runner-up in the 400-meter. Castle View had two athletes win their events as Christian Stathakis won the pole vault at 11 feet, 9 inches, and Christopher Linnin won the triple jump at 46 feet, 9 ½ inches. Linnin also placed second in the high jump and fourth in the long jump
to help the Castle View boys tie for fourth place overall. Chaparral senior Jennifer Calascione took the Class 5A discus at 131 feet, 9 inches, and Jenna Lansky finished third in the 100-meter hurdles as Chaparral’s girls finished 17th overall. The boys from Chaparral finished 10th behind state runner-up finishes from Domonic Compoz in the 3,200-meter and the 4 x 800-meter relay team. Ben Butler claimed the 3A 3,200-meter state title and was the runner-up in the 1,600-meter for the SkyView Academy boys. Cassie Unruh took fourth in the 3,200-meter for the girls team. The Class 5A girls 100-meter hurdles provided Rock Canyon its two best finishes of the day as freshman Emily Sloan won the state title in a time of 14.11 seconds. Rhyan Pettaway took fifth in the event. Highlands Ranch’s Trevor Rex took the state title in the Class 5A high jump, clearing 6 feet, 9 inches. Ben Morgan was runner-up in the long jump for the Falcons. Though the Golden Eagles of Mountain Vista did not win an event, Delaney Fitzsimmons finished as state runner-up in the Class 5A girls 3,200-meter, and she placed fourth in the 1,600-meter. Hayden Williams took state runner-up in the Class 5A boys pole vault. ThunderRidge’s Gabrielle Smith finished in a tie for second in the Class 5A girls pole and was the top finisher among the Grizzlies’ boys and girls teams. AJ Puga took third in the Class 4A boys discus, and Emily Banks took third in the Class 4A girls high jump to record the top finishes for Ponderosa’s boys and girls teams. Lutheran’s girls’ team saw Amy Migl finish as state runner-up in the Class 3A discus. Anna Spykstra took fourth in the 100-meter hurdles, and Morgan Barone took fourth in the high jump. Tara Pelton led the Legend girls’ team with a third-place finish in the 100-meter, and she finished sixth in the 200-meter.

SALOME’S STARS FOR RELEASE WEEK OF MAY 18, 2015
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You might be a bit shaken by a friend’s request. But before the Lamb leaps to conclusions, insist on a full explanation. You still might say no, but at least you’ll know what you’re saying no to. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Seeing red over those nasty remarks by someone with an ax to grind? Of course you are. So get out there and give your supporters the facts they need to get the truth out. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A changing situation should get you to reassess your vacation plans and make any adjustments as soon as possible. And don’t fret -- the change most likely will turn out for the better.

GALLERY OF GAMES
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Don’t put off dealing with any negative feelings that might be left over from a recent confrontation. The sooner all is resolved, the sooner you can move forward with fewer complications. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Leos and Leonas might feel the urge to redecorate their dens, and that can turn into a good opportunity to strengthen family ties by putting the whole pride to work to make it happen. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Look for the most efficient way to get a job done quickly and well. Taking more time than you need to make it look more challenging is a short-sighted move you might regret later on. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Travel remains strong in your aspect. And this time, it could involve someone traveling a great distance to come to see you. Meanwhile, an important matter suddenly could need your attention. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) A workplace situation becomes a lot more bothersome than you’d expected. Be careful not to be pulled into all that anger. Look for support among others who also want to avoid trouble. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Cheer up, lonely lovers, wherever you are. Just when you thought you’d been deleted from Cupid’s database, the chubby cherub proves that’s just not so. Congratulations. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A casual relationship could take a more serious turn. Are you ready for it? Your stars say you are. Paired Sea Goats also will find a renewed richness in their relationships. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Meeting a collaborator with new ideas seems to be a dream come true. But for both your sakes, be sure all your legal i’s are dotted and t’s are crossed before you start working together. PISCES (February 19 to March 21) A romantic overture flatters the usually unflappable Fish. But since it’s a sincere from-the-heart gesture, go ahead and enjoy it. A minor health problem responds well to treatment. BORN THIS WEEK: You have the warm heart of a Taurean and the sensitivity of a Gemini. You would make a wonderful leader. So go ahead: Run for office. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.
