Plan protects pets By Pat Hill

Playground dedicated at Ute Pass

By Pat Hill

phill@ourcoloradonews.com

Ute Pass Elementary School celebrated the new playground Nov. 15. On a chilly and sunny fall morning, the school’s principal, Christopher Briggs-Hale, tied the destruction of the playground in the floodwaters of summer to the earth’s natural cycle.

“Fires happen and when they do, floods do, too,” he said. “In early August, the realization of what we were truly living with seemed overwhelming, as scorched earth revealed its other horrible nature, the conveyor of water.” However, in the process of assessing the damage, regional officials discovered that the land was once a delta thousands of years ago. “When we looked at the hillsides of our beloved home it struck us that every ravine, not just sand gulch, had been crafted in endless cycles of fire and floods, something burnt, something loosened up,

Ute Pass Elementary students Daniel Everly, right, and his best friend, Chandler Disch, put the finishing touches on the new playground at Ute Pass Elementary School. In a ceremony of gratitude for the contributions from various donors, private as well as nonprofit and government entities, the school is on a new path from the devastating rainstorm this summer that destroyed the playground.

something slid,” he said. “And a new riparian zone of aspen, willow and water came into being. For centuries this land around us has been perfecting itself, collapsing and rising again in so

many ways.” As the land rejuvenates, so, too, has the school grown stronger, Briggs-Hale said. “Like the landscape will, we have recovered.”

Today, the playground, made of recyclable materials, is inviting to all children, including those with special needs. “What you are standing on is the result of the new growth of our thinking,” Briggs-Hale said. In a touching ceremony, the principal thanked the funders of the project, including Eric Cefus, director of new business development for the Pikes Peak Community Foundation, which donated $25,000. As well, Cefus convinced Lockheed Martin Corp. to add $15,000 to the foundation’s contribution. In addition, wildland firefighters in the area, under the name “Wildfire Tees Fund,” sold t-shirts and contributed $15,000. To convey the message of gratitude, several students talked about what they were grateful for, many of them related to having survived the Waldo Canyon Fire and subsequent flooding. The ceremony concluded with a ribbon cutting with the principal and students Daniel Everly and Chandler Disch.

In a county where animals are people, too, the Petaid Disaster Services project is designed to protect owners and their pets in emergencies such as fires and blizzards. “When people are leaving emergency situations, they will often go back in looking for their pets and put themselves at risk,” said Mark Platten, Teller County’s extension agent for Colorado State University. Galvanized by the fires of summer, Platten is working up a plan that analyzes risks and identifies resources for the evacuation and care of pets during emergencies. “We had challenges with Waldo Canyon and Springer fires, a mix-up of the chain-of-command,” he said, adding that, in the midst of the chaos, there were duplications in requests for supplies. Spearheaded by CSU’s extension offices in 13 counties, the Petaid Disaster Services is a two-year grant-funded project. “This is not a redundancy but it’s going to enhance what we already have in place,” Platten said. “The plan is to get people to think about what happens when the next emergency arrives. Because it’s not if but when.” As the county’s extension agent, Platten knows the territory. “A lot of these small-acreage people want to have a piece of the American Dream, own 10 acres, and may have a couple of horses but no trailer to move them,” he said. To avoid the mad dash that happens during emergencies, the goal in many cases is to keep owner and pet together. “We’re trying to set up areas such as the fairgrounds where the owners can actually sleep there and take care of their pets,” Platten said. “They’d have the opportunity to camp and at the same time maintain the relationship with their animals, which is important.” Platten, along with extension agents in El Paso and Park counties, is enrolled in training classes in Fort Collins with Debrah Schnackenberg, Pet Aid’s emergency planner.

WP Council talks budgets, chickens, weed Ordinances piling up for Dec. 5 meeting By Norma Engelberg

nengelberg@ourcoloradonews. com Woodland Park City Council used its Nov. 15 meeting to discuss three important ordinances it will likely decide at public hear-

ings scheduled for a rare Wednesday meeting on Dec. 5. A fourth and possibly a fifth important ordinance was added later in the meeting. The first two are appropriations to finish out the city’s 2012 budget and approval of its 2013 budget, which must be approved and sent to the state by Dec. 15. The second is an ordinance that would allow for the keeping of do-

mestic fowl in residential areas of the city where they are not prohibited by homeowners’ association covenants. Council has been working on the budget ordinances since early October through a series of workshops. With almost everything regarding the budget hashed out beforehand no surprises are anticipated. If surprises do happen there will be time to hold another meeting to deal with them before

the state deadline. The Woodland Park Planning Commission has worked almost as long drafting what many are calling “the chicken ordinance” even though it would also allow the keeping of ducks, geese, turkeys, pigeons and other domestic birds. Before city planner Scott Woodford could even finish the initial presentation several councilmembers questioned the need for such an ordinance. “Just tell people they’re permitted unless they become a nuisance and you have codes for that,” said Councilmember Gary Brovetto. “I have a problem with assuming that something is automatically prohibited if it isn’t mentioned in city code.” Bob Carlson’s idea went even farther. He said just to approve all domestic animals and let standards already in place control them.

Councilmember Terry Harrison said, “The last time we had a chicken at a council meeting, 18 months later we had a sign ordinance.” He was referring to the Chicken Man when many thought the city was going to prohibit him and other advertising characters from holding signs advertising their businesses. Someone else pointed out that it actually took two years to revise the city sign codes and that creating a domestic fowl ordinance shouldn’t take that long. After much discussion, council passed the ordinance on initial posting and will hear public input at the next meeting before making its final decision. City Attorney Erin Smith made a short presentation on how the city should react to the passage of Amendment 64, legalizing the Council continues on Page 3

Walking on an ancient dome

Friends of the Florissant Library finished out their year on Nov. 12 with a covered-dish luncheon at the home of one of the members and a tour of a rock dome in an undisclosed location that has pockets of crystals. Dated at about 1.14 billion years old, the dome is some of the oldest rock in the state.

Pockets of smoky quartz and amazonite crystals are fairly common in rock formations along the Colorado Front Range. Photos by Norma Engelberg

Friends of the Florissant Library meet on the second Monday of each month to plan ways to fund library programs and build its collection. This month’s meeting on Nov. 12 was the last of the year. Their next meeting will be from 11:30 a.m.-2

p.m. Jan. 14 in the Florissant Public Library downstairs conference room. The volunteer organization is always looking for new members. For information, call the Florissant Public Library at 719-7483939.

Council: Emergency moratorium ordinance Dec. 5 Council continued from Page 1

possession of less than 1 ounce of marijuana for recreational use by Colorado citizens age 21 and older. She recommended that the city use the pattern it set when it consider regulating or prohibiting retail medical marijuana businesses. At that time council passed, and extended several times, a temporary moratorium on permits for new medical marijuana retail, commercial growing and manufacturing businesses until the state worked out the details. With consensus from council she and city staff will create an emergency moratorium ordinance for the Dec. 5 meeting that will cover the commercial aspects of Amendment 64. Just as in medical marijuana, the city can’t prohibit growing marijuana in homes. Woodland Park Police Chief Robert Larson said because of the amendment his officers won’t be able to arrest people for marijuana possession and can only assist federal agencies on specific cases. Possession of any amount of marijuana by anyone is still prohibited by the federal government no matter what state laws allow.

Cresson students see Magic Planet Special to the Courier

Students at Cresson Elementary School were intrigued by the Magic Planet class Nov. 8. In an interactive presentation hosted by Deb Haase and the Challenger Learning Center of Colorado, the children were able to study the path of Hurricane Sandy, track the ash cloud on Mt. Pinatubo and see “Seven Minutes of Terror” showing Curiosity rover’s landing on Mars.

Magic Planet is an interactive projection system that allows students to see movement, weather and forces affecting Earth as well as other planets, stars and moons. Challenger selected the elementary school to show appreciation to the Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Co. for its support for STEM-based (science, technology, engineering and math) programs through grants to schools in Cripple Creek and Woodland Park.

Home destroyed by fire in Florissant By Pat Hill

phill@ourcoloradonews.com There were no injuries in the fire that destroyed a home at 90 Manchester Circle in Florissant Nov. 12. Firefighters from Divide and Florissant responded to the call around 9:19 a.m. and stopped the fire from spread-

ing to nearby homes. The fire started in the wood stove, said Teller County Sheriff Mike Ensminger. “No other properties were destroyed but some trees caught on fire,” Ensminger said. “We were fortunate there was no wind, as there was yesterday, because the home is in a subdivision.”

John McAfee, former resident of Woodland Park and founder of the McAfee antivirus company and Tribal Voice, is currently on the run in Belize. According to articles in Wired and the Huffington Post, McAfee has been named a person of interest by the Belize police force. McAfee is wanted for questioning in the murder of his neighbor, Gregory Faull, who was found dead of a shotgun wound at his home in San Pedro Town on the is-

land of Amergris Caye. McAfee’s Woodland Park ties go back to the anti-virus company as well as a yoga studio in his home on Edlowe Rd. The home was later sold at auction in a foreclosure sale. Janice Hamlet, who lives on County Road 28, knew McAfee only in passing “He was friendly; we went to his house for a time or two,” Hamlet said. “We knew him as a person who had money and made a name for himself.” Hamlet knew of the yoga studio but otherwise had not been to the house since McAfee opened the studio.

RE-2 school board nixes memorial shadow box Outside memorial to fallen students will remain through graduation By Norma Engelberg

nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com Once again a number of community members and family members of the three Woodland Park High School boys who died last summer in an automobile accident were at a Woodland Park RE-2 School District board to talk about memorials for the students. The school district has already allowed a memorial to Paul Kekich , 16 , Nick Naples

, 17 , and Alex Ragan , 17, to be placed on high school grounds but as discussed at the Nov. 14 board meeting, a proposal to create a “shadow box” filled with items owned and used by the three students to be placed inside the school has been denied. Board secretary Carol Greenstreet said that while she, as a mother of four, sympathizes with the grieving parents, she isn’t sure that placing a constant reminder of the tragedy inside the school is the best way to deal with the loss. The district has agreed to other requests from both students and parents, including allowing athletes to wear special patches on uniforms and remembering the students when their high school class graduates. In a statement she read at the meeting,

Greenstreet cited several reasons for the board’s and school administration decision. She said some students are comforted by such memorials but that others clearly are not, such a memorial might make worsen the fears and insecurities younger students have about death, for security reasons school grounds and buildings are not public gathering places where people can visit the memorials and, finally, some students, especially seniors, complain of being robbed of the joy of graduating because of so much focus on death. In another part of the meeting the board heard the results of the annual district audit, which the district passed with flying colors. Since an act of embezzling school funds happened several years ago, the dis-

trict has been putting in place a series of checks and balances that should make such financial impropriety more difficult to conduct and easier to find. Superintendent Jed Bowman is working with local business owners on ways they and the district can help each other. “We’re seeking ways for business owners to offer advice to the school on finances,” Greenstreet said. “We’re trying to figure out the best ways for us to work with the money we have available to meet the needs of our students and honor our hard-working teachers.” The next school board meeting is set for 7 p.m. on Dec. 12. All regular board meetings are open to the public.

Second John Denver show benefits Park By Norma Engelberg

nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com For more than 40 years John Adams has been using his guitar and voice to bring the entire range of John Denver’s music to life in a way that isn’t available on CD. Adams was born in Utrecht, Netherlands, and started learning how to play the guitar as a young child. In 1972, when John Denver became a hit in Europe, Adams became enthralled with the music and the message. Following Denver’s example, Adams has been an ambassador for Ronald McDonald Children’s Homes and spent seven years as an elementary and high school teacher for the United Nations Children’s Fund. Now he is bringing his talents back to Woodland Park to help raise funds for un-

specified projects at the city’s Memorial Park. He will be performing the benefit concert at 7 p.m. on Dec. 8 at the Ute Pass Cultural Center. According to Adams’ publicist Jenni Korst, he was surprised by the reception he received at his first Woodland Park concert a few years ago. “They sang along with him,” she said. “Nobody ever does that. …They’re the best audience on the planet.” Adams will be bringing his full band: He will sing and play the guitar, his wife Amanda plays the fiddle and violin, Steve Wilson plays bass, Jeff Ingram plays flute, sax and penny flute, Robb Haskett will be on the drums and Mark Johnson will play piano. Tickets will be $20 and will be available in Woodland Park at The Cellar Door, Peoples National Bank and the UPS Store.

Bush administration, new furnaces in the northern region of the United States after May 1 must be rated 90 percent efficient or higher. “These apply to furnaces where there’s new construction or the homeowner is changing out a furnace,” said David Corbitt, who owns Air Pro Heating in Woodland Park. “Right now, minimum efficiency for furnaces is 80 percent.” While Congress passed the energy bill five years ago, granting the Department of Energy the power to regulate, the public is generally unaware of the issue. “Contractors tell me they are shocked by how little consumers know about the new regulations,” said Dean Wolfe, sales manager for Johnstone Supply, a wholesale distributor. “There is mis-communication and information not properly transmitted.” Tim Hunter, who owns Air Tech HVAC, has been spreading the word among his clients, particularly those who live in condominiums. Hunter recommends that consumers “google” the website for the Air Conditioning Contractors of America Associates for more information. In Woodland Park, Corbitt’s customers are savvy about energy efficiency. “‘Everyone is concerned about energy consumption anyway,” he said. “The stimulus of

2009-2010 offered good tax credits from the government and made it very attractive to buy new furnaces. So it got everybody thinking about efficiency.” The catch, however, is in the venting system. According to the 2013 regulations, non-condensing furnaces cannot use a common vent with other appliances. “Condensation must be collected and removed before it freezes,” Wolfe said. Therein lies the rub. “The cost for installing these furnaces is going to go up,” Corbitt said.” If a furnace is in the middle of the house, it’s very hard to get the venting out, so now you’re looking at remodeling costs because after May 1 there is no choice.” For homeowners on tight budgets, there is time enough to procrastinate. “You can continue to roll the dice, continue to repair the old furnace, or replace it with an 80-percent efficiency rating that comes with a 10year warranty,” Wolfe said. As it is now, there is no wiggle room on the regulations, which presents a headache for distributors. “Obviously, there are millions of dollars’ worth of equipment (older furnaces) out there so if you don’t have the potential to get rid of these you are out millions of dollars,” Wolfe said. On the other hand, people who deal in recyclable scrap metal are capitalizing on the new regulations. “Some businesses make a living in old appliances; they completely demolish the old furnaces and scrap the metal, which is recyclable,” Wolfe said. A lawsuit filed by the ACCA, among other industry representatives, challenges the Department of Energy’s protocol and procedures but is unlikely to be ruled on by May 1, Wolfe said. There have been some grumblings

about just who imposed the new energy standards. “Regardless of who was elected Nov. 6, this has already been in the pipeline,” Corbitt said. When it comes to energy efficiency, the United States is behind Europe and Asia. “However, with fuel prices going up, I think everybody is very conscious of energy standards.”

OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS

Boss of the plains: Was the original cowboy hat locally produced? “Local legend makers would like us to believe that the original cowboy hat was created while John B. Stetson was camped along Monument Creek near the present day location of the Professional Rodeo Cowboy Association building. That cannot be substantiated,” writes Loren R. Whittemore in “An Illustrated History of Ranching in the Pikes Peak Region. The story is that John Stetson and companions, seeking benefits of a drier climate hunted in the area in the early 1860s. According to the legend, he tried to impress his hunting buddies by showing them how he could make clothe out of fur without weaving. He created an unusually largebrimmed hat with a high crown that he wore the rest of the trip and grew quite fond of. The hats benefits included an insulating pocket of air, the ability to carry

water if needed, and extra protection for western weather. Later, when he returned to Philadelphia, he began making and selling the hats and the rest, I guess, is history. “In 1865, with $100, John B. Stetson rented a small room, bought tools he needed, bought $10 worth of fur and the John B. Stetson Hat Company was born. A year

later the “Hat of the West” or the now famous “Boss of the Plains” hat was born and the name Stetson was on its way to becoming the mark of quality, durability, innovation and beauty,” according to the company’s web site. An alternate version of the story holds that hat of that style was already being produced at Christy’s Hats from Frampton Cotrerell in Bristol, England. “The main business was trading with the West Indies, making large brimmed felt hats for slaves harvesting sugar cane in the rainy season,” according to Wikipedia. Christy’s, which owned the patent and Stetson, took the battle to the courts. Christy’s won that battle but apparently lost the war. By 1886 Stetson’s hat company was the largest in the world. The authentic Stetson hat still enjoys

widespread popularity in a great number of local and international venues and traditions. A flat-brimmed Stetson is included in the official uniform of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Red Serge. The hat replaced pith helmets that were worn until that time. Locally, the receipt of a “Senior Stetson” at Colorado School of Mines has marked the beginning of the last year for engineers since 1905. The tradition originated for freshly graduated engineers to avoid having a clean hat that marked them as “greenhorns” in the mining industry. Stetson Hat Company continues to make hats in their factory in Garland, Texas and the hats are among the most well known in the world.

Being senior: as much mind as body Senior is one of those words that can be used for all kinds of things. In general it means elder, older, superior or major. The word connotes experience and wisdom. I may be gaining experience but I’m not so certain about wisdom. Being senior doesn’t have much to do with age except that seniors are usually older than juniors or, at least have been there longer. For example, a senior partner in a firm can be younger than a junior partner if he or she has been there longer or if nepotism is involved. High school seniors have more experience than juniors or sophomores but when they go to college they lose that lofty status and start over as freshmen or even Plebes, depending on what kind of college it is. At what age are we considered seniors? That depends. As TV columnist Andy

Rooney said: “It’s paradoxical that the idea of living a long life appeals to everyone, but the idea of getting old doesn’t appeal to anyone” and actor Bill Cosby said: “Old is always 15 years from now.” To the U.S. Department of Agriculture, senior or “older adult” starts at age 51. That determination is based on nutritional needs rather than experience. Older adults need more of some nutrients and less of

others, more calcium and less iron for example, than younger adults. There are gender differences involved, as well. Older men usually have higher daily requirements for most nutrients and vitamins than women, who are paragons of efficiency most of their lives. Other organizations set the senior designation and age-related perks at different ages. For AARP, which starts sending join-us letters to potential customers when they hit 48 or 49, life begins at 50. Most restaurants and re-sale shops start senior rates at 55. At age 62, a lot of benefits cut lose for seniors: you can take early retirement from Social Security, buy a lifetime card for free or reduced entry into National Parks and other federal lands and get half-price Amtrak train tickets. At 65 or later, depending

on your birth year, you can take full retirement but if you want more money, the government is encouraging people to wait until age 70. Of course, whether or not you feel like a senior also depends. Does your body hurt as much when you stay in bed as when you get up? Then, at least for that day, you’re a senior. If your comfort food is pizza, you’re probably still young at heart, if it’s oatmeal maybe you belong on “Sesame Street.” How strong do you like your coffee? My grandmother used to say, “My taste buds are 80 years old so I need my coffee strong.” Of course, she also used to say “you’re never too old for pizza.” One of the perks of getting older is that as we age we go from “crazy” to “eccentric.” That’s one perk I expect to take full advantage of.

Holiday season eating strategies Here we go again: tomorrow (Thanksgiving) kicks off the annual holiday eating frenzy. While some are sleeping with visions of sugar plums dancing in their heads, others are devouring all the sugar they can get their hands on. Turkey with all the dressings, an assortment of pies and desserts galore, eggnog, cookies and an endless stream of chocolate laden goodies, the time from Thanksgiving to New Year’s is a very slippery slope for those watching their waistlines. Some people put on as much as 5-7 pounds during the holiday season. Here are some holiday eating strategies to help you avoid becoming a “creeping obesity” statistic this holiday season: Get moving. One of the most effective

ties instead of food. Start a tradition of ice skating, sledding or skiing as part of your holiday activities. Instead of riding around in a car to look at Christmas displays, park your car and walk around a neighborhood or go to a movie and bypass the snack bar. Never skip meals before or after a big holiday feast. This practice creates a famine-feast-famine cycle that is deleterious of your waistline. To prevent overeating at a party, drink a large glass of water prior to eating, don’t stand near a food-laden table, place food on a plate rather than eating from the buffet and sit down to eat. Concentrate on the quality of your holiday eating and not the quantity. Focus on preparing or sampling only one or two special foods that you really like at each holiday celebration. Go to the back of the buffet line. Let others go first and, if you’re lucky, the most tempting and fat-laden items will be gone by the time you go through. Eat slowly and wait 20-minutes after you’ve cleaned your plate before going back for seconds. Say no politely. Often, people feel obligated to eat because their host keeps putting food in front of them. Just say, “Every-

thing was delicious but, honestly, I couldn’t eat another bite.” Choose your beverages wisely. Alcohol is high in calories. Liquors, sweet wines and sweet mixed drinks contain anywhere from 150 to 400 calories per glass Socialize. Focus your energy on making conversation, instead of centering your attention on food and drink. Conversation is calorie-free. Get adequate sleep. Chronic sleep loss can affect your metabolism and influences your sense of hunger. Being tired also affects your ability to resist food temptations. And, finally, plan ahead. Schedule time for yourself and exercise during this hectic season. Prioritize the holiday celebrations you’re invited to and only attend the ones that are really important to you. Be in control of, instead of being controlled by, this year’s holiday feeding frenzy. That way, you just might be able to get into your favorite pair of jeans on Jan. 1.

New voter courtesy cards By Judith “JJ” Jamison

Teller County Clerk and Recorder In September 2011 I told you that the Department of Revenue would be changing the Courtesy Cards, you probably call them renewal cards. (Refer to the Teller County website at www. co.teller.co.us, click on Clerk and Recorder, click on Clerks Clues and scroll down to Courtesy Cards September 2011). By the time this article hits the papers those of you with renewals in October will probably have already received your “Courtesy Card,” at least I hope you will have received them. It is our hope that the cardstock will be more durable to the Postal System and has a better chance of getting it to you. Your greatest frustration has been not receiving your Courtesy Card. That has been our greatest frustration as well. The USPS Intelligent Bar Code that will now appear on the front of the card may be the magic that gets this little guy through all the hurdles necessary to arrive in your mail box. Keep your fingers crossed, we are! The sample card didn’t scan well so please refer to the local newspapers, or your personal new Courtesy Card!

I now call the “Courier” ‘my weekly reader.” Thanks ! Tom Fehr

Colorado rocks underfoot Years ago I talked with a University of Colorado, Colorado Springs geology professor about what is under this area. I have talked about the gold in this area recently. There is something east of here that is interesting. The rocks at the bottom of Ute Pass are a mix of different kinds of rock. Limestone and Sandstone levels hide lots of interesting things,. The red sandstones are quite visible as they meet the mountains west of us. Those rocks go north into Wyoming as well as south to New Mexico. The limestone is soft and washes away creating interesting features even underground, like Cave of the Winds. It also is how Manitou water gets flavored. Fifty years ago I commuted to college in Pueblo. Out of boredom I drove roads other than I-25, like Old Pueblo Road, which then was dirt most of the way. I noticed a formation I thought was unusual. I learned over the years, these formations can be found east of the mountains way up into Montana. You may have looked over that way

from the interstate near Pikes Peak International Raceway, actually they look like giant ant hills. One set of them is called Tepee Buttes, since they sort of look like tepees from a distance. The mounds include limestone that is more solid than the ground around them. All along the interstate you will see mesas and buttes which formed the same way, depending on how much of a limestone crown protected them, and how much they were eroded. Up near Greenland and Larkspur the limestone is quite visible. The area we know as the Palmer Divide has some

Veterans deserve to be honored everyday On Nov. 11 people all over the country honored veterans that have served in all branches of the military and in all wars. Celebrations, parades and memorial services occurred as we reflected on the sacrifices our veterans made. However when Veteran’s Day first began it was meant to honor those who served in World War I. World War I officially ended on June 28, 1919 with the Treaty of Versailles but in fact the fighting actually ceased seven months earlier when an armistice or a temporary cessation of hostilities between the allied nations and Germany went into effect during the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month according to www.va.gov/opa/ vetsday/vetdayhistory.asp. World War I was known as the `Great War’ and Nov. 11, 1918 is known as the end of `the war to end all wars.’ A year later, on Nov. 11, 1919, President

Woodrow Wilson recognized the first anniversary of Armistice Day, as it was referred to back then. It wasn’t approved as a legal federal holiday until May 13, 1938 when congress passed an act. But then came World War II and the Korean War. At the urging of veterans service organizations congress amended the act on June 1, 1954 by replacing the word armistice with veteran. Veteran’s Day became a day to honor all veterans. During Veteran’s Day weekend our family went to the Veteran’s Day parade in downtown Colorado Springs. Veteran’s

from all branches of the military and all wars participated in the parade. There were even a few prisoners of war. Civil War re-enactors also marched in the parade. It was great to see all the high school Junior ROTC students take part in the parade. Some of these same students will be our future military leaders. My son marched in the parade with his Colorado Springs Young Marine unit. On Veteran’s Day he participated in the color guard during a memorial service. It was nice to see Facebook friends honoring veterans by posting pictures of fathers, brothers, grandfathers, sisters and other loved ones who served. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t have a connection to the military. My own father served in the United States Marine Corps and was sent to Vietnam for 18 months. My grandfather

Resolution calls on leaders to end sequestration Special to The Tribune

lcollacott@ourcoloradonews.com The Board of El Paso County Commissioners unanimously approved a resolution, presented by Board Chair Commissioner Amy Lathen, calling on the president and congress to “set aside partisan politics” and end the imminent threat of across the board federal budget cuts scheduled to begin January 1, 2013 through the sequestration process. The resolution approved by the board notes sequestration would, “apply automatic across-the-board reductions evenly divided between security and non-security functions which would be deeply destructive to national security, domestic investments and core government functions.” It further points out that sequestration would, “likely result in the loss of more than 18,000 primary jobs in Colorado with most of those coming from the ranks of private contractors in El Paso County who provide the

pretty substantial layers of sandstone. One is called Elephant Rock west of Monument. To the south this formation can be seen, plus something else. One of natures’ curiosities in called “The Orphan” down near Walsenburg. It is a formation sticking up out of the hills 10 miles north of town, east of I-25, which give the county its name. Huerfano is Spanish for orphan. This formation is what is called a volcanic neck, which resulted when the mountains started being formed. There is a famous one up in Wyoming called Devils Tower, in the northern Black Hills. You may have seen the movie “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” where it was an important feature. I get asked about the geology of this area all the time on Pikes Peak, but it usually is about the mountain, Cripple Creek or Cheyenne Mountain. Mel McFarland, artist, author, retired teacher and railroader, is a Colorado Springs native who has a strong interest in the events of this area’s past.

services and technologies needed to properly equip our fighting forces for modern warfare.” Joe Raso, president and CEO of the Colorado Springs Regional Business Alliance thanked the commissioners for their participation in a town hall style meeting focused on sequestration issue which was hosted by the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs and the Regional Business Alliance in October. “Our region is projected to have a 2.5 percent growth in economic activity next year, except if sequestration were to go through. It would change that projected 2.5 percent growth into a .7 percent loss. We want to make sure that the community knows about this and that they get on the phone to talk to their representatives and to people they know about this,” Raso said. “As you know the president commented during the last debate that he wanted make sure that sequestration doesn’t go into effect and we want to remind him of that.” Commissioner Darryl Glenn also urged citizens to action. “This is a

reality,” he said. “People need to understand this is scheduled to go into effect at the beginning of the year. People need to call their congressmen. The stakes are too high.” Commissioner Peggy Littleton pointed out that sequestration cuts in defense spending would be deeply destructive to our national security resulting in an “empty” military that would be sent into battle without the equipment, supplies and technology needed to be effective. Board Chair Commissioner Amy Lathen, noted “Defense of our nation is the number one priority. If we don’t have a military equipped to defend our country then none of these other issues matter.” Video highlights of the sequestration town hall meeting with United States Senators John McCain, Lindsey Graham and Kelly Ayotte can be viewed on the El Paso County You Tube Channel through the following link: http://www.youtube.com/user/ ElPasoCountyCo then select “Sequestration Town Hall.”

on my mom’s side was in the Army during World War II and was sent to Europe right after the war ended where he helped with clean-up at Auschwitz. His brother was killed during the war when he was taken prisoner of war in Italy. I couldn’t imagine being in their shoes and seeing the things that they saw. One of my closest cousins served in the Air Force where she flew in C-130s every weekend. It was a dream come true for her. Her dream was cut short when she was killed in a car accident at age 22. Two years later the crew she flew with perished in a plane crash. Many other family members served in the military, my husband’s family included. We will honor veterans again on Memorial Day but really we should honor them every day. They make incredible sacrifices so you and I can enjoy our freedom.

nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com Neil Naviasky started collecting model trains with his father at age 14. They had a Lionel model train and track set up in their Baltimore basement. Then one day when Naviasky came home from college, the trains were gone. “They were moving into a smaller place and just got rid of them,” he said. “My model train days were over just like that. Then when my son was 2-years-old, about fit Kcolin here 40 years ago, I started lecting trains again.” Since then, his train collection has grown to the

point that his “very tolerant wife” allowed him to design their new house around it. He has 135 full trains, partial trains and trollies on 10 sections of tracks in his unfinished basement. The trains are mostly HO-gauge, 1:87 scale. In a few places when he wants to give the illusion of distance, he uses N-gauge trains, which depending on the manufacturer or country, ranges from 1:148 to 1:160 scale. “Some model train people are into operating the trains,” Naviasky said. “I like them to run but I’m more into the clutter group. I like to see how much stuff I can jam in per square foot. Each section is based on real places and the models I use are based on real buildings.” One of his sections is based on his hometown

of Baltimore and depicts a typical Atlantic states city. It starts with a seaport and industrial center, row houses, inner city and, finally, the suburbs. Train lines in this section include the Baltimore & Ohio, Amtrak, Chessie System, Pennsylvania Rail Road, Western Maryland, New York Central, Metro-Link, Philadelphia Transit Company and Brooklyn & Queens. Other sections include the Wharf, a heavy industry area and switching yard, vertical and horizontal mines, small Colorado towns, large European and North American cities and whatever else he deems appropriate. Trains run the gamut from the steam and fit K in here coal eras to diesel to electric. Models have switches, working lights, industrial cranes, round houses and a

lot of movement overhead, as well. With all these sections involved there is also room for what he calls a 14-yearold’s humor. There’s Godzilla, sharks and some unsuspecting water skiers in the ocean, King Kong hangs from a skyscraper in New York City holding a miniature Fay Wray while fighting off biplanes buzzing overhead, a shootout between cops and robbers in Baltimore (it’s a rough town, he said), the moose from the TV show “Northern Exposure” and the Florissant Jammers play in the Everett Theater on Thursday nights in Greeley. As with almost all model train sets, Naviasky’s sections will never be completed. “There’s always something else to do,” he said.

Peak Military Care Net: one-stop resource Pikes Peak Area Council of Government starts pilot prgram By Norma Engelberg

nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com

One major difference between military life and civilian life is the way resources are handled. “In the Army, everything is right there,” said Ruth Burger, who was honorably discharged from the Army four years ago. “If you don’t know where something is there’s always someone who can tell you. As a civilian you’re on your own.” That feeling of being on their own is changing for military personnel, dependents and veterans in the Pikes Peak Region with the launch of a six-month pilot program designed by the Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments to be a one-stop resource shop. Launched Nov. 13, Peak Military Care Net has as its mission: “To connect the needs of our community’s military service members, veterans and their families to the highest quality resources by providing a central source for information, navigation and integrated services.” “This site will be the place to go if you need counseling, employment or help caring for a special needs child, for example,” said Kate Hatten, military care network executive director. “One of the first steps we took to create the program was assessing needs, challenges and opportunities. We looked at what we do well for our military and what more we need to do.” Veteran Eduardo Baller checks out the new Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments’ one-stop resource shop called Peak Military Care Net website at a demonstration on Nov. 13 at Dallas Jamison, council of governments Pikes Peak Community College.

One of six on the 2012 Tweeds Holiday Home Tour Dec. 1 and 2, the Johnson home is in Paradise at Pikes Peak. Built by Andre Leclercq of Alec Builders, the home was designed by David Langley Architects. In addition to the Johnson’s creative ingenuity, the home’s interior decorator is David Lee of Woodland Park. African tile in the foyer as well as on the stair step rises reflects the home’s decorating diversity and the couple’s travel adventures. The main level has an open floor plan and a whopper view of Pikes Peak. The dining room table is set for a Christmas dinner, with china from Sweden, turquoise napkin rings, brass candlesticks and greenery on the table. The 900-pound antique ice chest is another memento of Bart Johnson’s roots. “We’re Indian, French, German and Swedish, so we’ve tried to embrace it all,” Karyn Johnson said. The Johnsons have made the outdoors and the forested lot a vital piece of the décor. The ironwork railing, with carved insets, was done by Ray McMurtry of Cripple Creek who also did the ironwork on the staircase. The kitchen is a cook’s dream, with leather soapstone countertops and that stunning view. “I love to cook and bake,” Karyn said. The master bedroom on the main level is dramatic, emphasized by the king-size bed in bristlecone pine. Descending the staircase to the lower

Karyn Johnson decorated the dining room table with china from Sweden and napkin rings from Walmart. The home reflects the designer ingenuity of the Johnsons and is a treat for people who come to the 2012 Tweeds Holiday Home Tour, which features a virtual marketplace. Photos by Pat Hill level visitors are greeted by the wall painting of Harley, the family dog, the work done by Victor artist Noel Wallace. With elephant tusks among other treasures from Africa, the leisure room reminds the owners of Bart’s father’s African safari. Included in the room’s décor is the bar, crafted of wood from the family farm. A prominent part of the décor is the showcase of Bart’s carved wood figures, crafted in the massive and spotlessly-clean workshop at the end of the hallway. Karyn indulges her creativity in the quilting room entered through the refurbished barn doors and enhanced with the antique quilt. A large poster of a ship from the Carnival Cruise Line sparks interest in the immigration to America of Bart’s family. In a time when families are separated by distance, when cherished memories are often laid aside, the Johnsons have preserved their bonds to the past in a charming and updated design throughout the house. Other homes on the tour are owned by: • Kathy and Dean Buysse, Edgewood Inn, decorated by Deb Nichols and Cowbells • Susan and David Leitch, decorated by Susan Leitch • Cord and Liz Prettyman, decorated by Liz Prettyman • Susan and Kevin Geiger, decorated by Susan Geiger • Kathy and Jerry Penland, decorated by

The Johnson home was designed by David Langley Architects and built by Andre Leclercq of Alec Builders, Inc. David Lee did the interior design and the Johnsons filled the home with memories of their rural roots in Kansas.

Beavers are active year-round. Their ponds provide navigable water even beneath the ice. Photos by Rob Carrigan

Leaving it to Beaver: No drought fever in areas because of the dam-building animals By Rob Carrigan

rc a r r i g a n @ o u rc o l o ra donews.com Beavers, considered a “keystone” species for their dam building efforts may actually be helping Colorado landowners and others weather recent drought conditions. But how are the beavers faring in the dry conditions? “Drought does have an impact on beaver though we haven’t heard or seen significant impacts thus far,” says Randy Hampton, Colorado Parks and Wildlife Public Information officer. “In areas where streams dry up, beaver are known to abandon lodges and dams to find other water sources. One advantage this past year was that reservoir storage was high and most larg-

er bodies of water in Colorado were managed to keep minimal flows,” Hampton says. “Smaller streams were impacted but in the case of beaver, they often store up enough water behind their dams to actually make it through dry periods - as long as the dry periods are short. We would expect to see larger negative impacts to beaver if drought persists into next year and beyond.” Beaver expert David M. Armstrong, of the Department of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology Environmental Studies Program, University Museum of Natural History, University of Colorado-Boulder, notes that many mountain ponds, willow thickets and meadows are the works of beavers over time. “Beavers are active yearround. Their ponds provide navigable water beneath the ice. No mammal other than humans has a great an influence on its surroundings. This is a `keystone

species’ in riparian communities; without them the ecosystem would change dramatically,” Armstrong says in information provided by the state parks and wildlife department. And they have a historic role. “As abundant as beavers are today, it is difficult to believe that once they were on the verge of extinction, trapped for their under fur, which was used to make felt for beaver hats. In the mid-19th century, silk hats replaced beaver felt as a fashion, and that probably saved the beaver from extinction. But, before it ended, the beaver trade opened the mountains of Colorado to European exploration. The largest rodents native to North America can be greater than three feet in length, and weigh up to 55 pounds. “It takes a beaver approximately 30 minutes to fell a 5-inch diameter tree,” says Armstrong.

This is a ‘keystone species’ in riparian communities; without beavers, the ecosystem would change dramatically. Rob Carrigan

Beavers are fairly well protected from predators by their large size and aquatic habits. Mink eat some kits, and coyotes can capture a beaver waddling on dry land. Aside from that, floods may be the largest cause of death. Beaver in Colorado are managed as furbearers. Range: The beaver lives throughout Colorado in suitable habitat, although it is most abundant in the subalpine zone. Habitat: Beavers live around ponds and streams that are surrounded by trees. Diet: Beavers feed on grasses and forbs in the summer, and bark in the winter. Bea-

Pioneers to hit the court running High scoring Irelan will anchor attack By Danny Summers

sports@ourcoloradonews.com CRIPPLE CREEK - The one constant at Cripple Creek-Victor High School is Jim Bertrand. In addition to being the athletic director and football coach, he is entering his 12th season in charge of the boys basketball team. “These guys are working hard. They just never give up,” Bertrand said with a smile as he prepared for another practice on the hardwood. Bertrand maintains a positive outlook, despite declining numbers at the school, and the complications associated with his 14-month battle with bone cancer. “Every now and then it kicks my butt,” he said of the cancer. Bertrand returns three starters from a team that went 4-16 last season; seniors Cale Brown and Chris Irelan, and sophomore Toby Wuellner. Brown, a 6-foot guard, averaged about five points per game, while Wuellner, a 6-1 center, averaged about three. Irelan was eligible for only five games after transferring, but averaged about 28 points per game.

“We’re going to be a running team this year,” said the 6-1 Irelan, who will rotate between guard and forward. “We’re going to press a lot, move the ball up and down the court, and try not to set up unless we have to.” The Pioneers averaged only about 31 points per game last season before Irelan’s arrival. They also lost almost 30 points per game with the graduation of James Linenberger and Jared Bowman, and point guard Omar Shalhout, who moved back to Connecticut. “It’s going to hurt losing those guys, but I like the team we have,” Brown said. “We have determination. We’re going to get it done.” Key players who should see a lot of time this year include senior forward Wyatt McClure, sophomore guards C.J. Salazar and David Burkes, and sophomore center Cody Rice. “We’re going to run (the Princeton offense) when we get a chance; get some motion going,” Bertrand said. “We ran it this summer at (Colorado) Mesa and we were pretty effective with it. “We want to get our guys playing at Chris’s level. I think we can

Their Division I District includes Del Norte,

Crested Butte, Sargent, Antonito, Sanford, Sierra Grande, Sangre de Cristo and Center. “Everyone in our league pretty much likes to run,” Bertrand said. “But they also play a lot of good defense. We’re going to have to do

both to be successful.” The Pioneers open their season at home on Nov. 30 with a 6:30 p.m. game against Moffat County. They host Platte Canyon the next day in a 2:30 p.m. start.

Bertrand pulls double-duty for Pioneers AD and boys coach will help with the girls team By Danny Summers

sports@ourcoloradonews.com CRIPPLE CREEK - For the fourth time in four years, a new coach is calling the shots

for the Cripple Creek-Victor girls basketball team. But the man leading the charge this year is no stranger to the players. Jim Bertrand, who also coaches the boys squad, will take over the girls while he

grooms a new coach - Michelle Eastman to run the program long term. “I’ll be helping her get started,” Bertrand said. “I’ll be there to take the pressure off her. This way she has a chance to learn

what it’s like to be a coach without being thrown into the fire.” Bertrand, who is also the school’s athletic director, inherits a Pioneers squad that went 5-15 last season under John Thompson. But Thompson was not able to return this season due to health issues. So Bertrand volunteered his services. “The girls have me in class and the feel confident with me,” he said. “We’ve had some good practices. They’re really coming together.” All five Pioneers starters return, led by junior guard Katie Tapia. The multi-dimensional athlete was second on the team in scoring last year with 8.4 points per game. She was also second in rebounds, steals and three-point field goals. Tapia will try to fill the void left by Sydni Riley, who is attending Colorado State University-Pueblo on a track scholarship. Riley averaged almost 18 points and 14 rebounds for the Pioneers last season. Rounding out the returning starters are senior center/forward Olivia Ruiz Larson, senior center/forward Samantha Scottaguard, junior center/forward Sarah Wywais and senior point guard Darien Carrillo. Other key players include sophomore forward Autumn Herndon and sophomore guard Madi Berger. “I’m coaching them at the boys’ level,” Bertrand said. “We’re going to have good skills and we’re going to be competitive.” The Pioneers averaged 35 points per game last season, while allowing nearly 54. But they had a strong finish, winning their final three regular season games over Cotopaxi, La Veta and Southern Colorado Early College by an average of 16 points per game. The Pioneers also had a strong showing against South Park during a 64-49 loss in the first round the Class 2A District 1 playoffs. “We’re going to have to pick up the pace a little bit,” Bertrand said. “I think we can do that. I guess we’ll find out soon enough.” The Pioneers open their season at home Nov. 30 against Moffat County. Game time is scheduled for 5 p.m.

Fall players of the year honored Irelan tops in football; Larsen ruled in volleyball

By Danny Summers

sports@ourcoloradonews.com CRIPPLE CREEK - Whenever the Cripple Creek-Victor football team needed a big play this season, it seemed that Chris Irelan was right in the middle of things. The senior receiver/kick return specialist scored eight touchdowns, and also played a stellar defensive back. Olivia Ruiz Larsen was equally important to the school’s volleyball team, playing several positions while keeping a positive approach as a team captain. She led the squad in digs, and was the only Pioneers player named to the Class 2A West Central all-league team. For their efforts, Irelan and Ruiz Larsen have been named the Courier’s Cripple Creek-Victor Fall athletes of the year.

“The kids knew they could go to Chris and he’d get the job done,” said Cripple Creek-Victor football coach Jim Bertrand. “He had a lot of confidence and he kept a positive attitude.” Irelan scored his touchdowns in a variety of ways - five receiving, one rushing, and one each on kick and punt returns. He did his damage while playing in just five games. He missed the first three games with an ankle injury. Still, he was named to the 8-man South Central all-league team. His statistics were off the chart. He caught 12 passes for 421 yards (35.1 yards per reception), rushed the ball 12 times for 199 yards (16.6 per carry), returned 11 punts for 170 yards (15.5) and ran back five kickoffs for 219 yards (43.8). Irelan posted staggering numbers despite the Pioneers going 0-8 and being out-

scored 485 to 114. “None of us quit; none of us got down,” Irelan said. “We kept pushing. We were beat up, but we all had fun. “I couldn’t be happier with the season we had. We all worked together.” Ruiz Larsen was a two-year starter for Pioneers coach Amy Christison. An outside hitter and middle blocker, she even volunteered to play setter during one match. “I asked the girls to tell me who they saw as the leader on the team and they chose Olivia,” Christison said. “She was always at practice early working on her skills. She always helped the younger girls out. “She had a presence on the court to where the girls knew she was going to cover her spot.” Ruiz Larsen led the Pioneers in digs (147) and serve receive (251). She was second in

kills (44) and service aces (13). “We had a game where nothing was working and coach asked me if I wanted to set; I said sure,” Ruiz Larsen said. “It was nice, but it’s probably not something I would do all the time. “But I would always do anything she asked. If she asked me to stand on my head I would do it.” The Pioneers were just 1-21 this season, but Ruiz Larsen said the team kept a positive outlook. “It was hard sometimes, especially when we felt we gave it everything we had. It was hard walking into the locker room knowing we had another loss. “But we kept our heads held high. We were excited to play another game.” Ruiz Larsen is also a starting post on the school’s basketball team.

Sport Stacking takes on world record By Norma Engelberg

nengelberg@ourcoloradonews.com Around the world from Australia and China to the United States and Canada and several South American and African countries, students spent at least 30 minutes sport stacking as part the Nov. 15 seventh

annual World Sport Stacking Association Stack Up to beat last year’s record for the Guinness World Records World’s Largest Sport Stacking Event. Sport Stacking is an athletic event involving stacking regulation size cups in specific patterns and then down stacking them. It encourages eye/hand coordination,

agility, speed, teamwork and fun. The goal this year is to have 450,000 students participating in the event during a single 24 hours worldwide. Children at Columbine Elementary School will be part of that record-breaking total as every class takes part in the school gym.

Right, Columbine Elementary School second-grader Kaidence Winnery, 7, takes part in a Sport Stacking relay in the school gym. Relay participants up-stacked and then downstacked the giant stacking cups, running between stacks across the gym trying for the best time. ‘We try to get as much physical activity into the event as we can,’ said school physical education teacher Julie Cutting.

Misc. Private Legals Public Notice Important Information about Lead in Your Drinking Water Public Water System ID: CO0 / 60550 System Name: Valley Maintenance Corp. Our system found elevated levels of lead in the drinking water in some homes / buildings. Lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Please read this information closely to see what you can do to reduce lead in your drinking water. Health Effects of Lead Lead can cause serious health problems if too much enters your body from drinking water or other sources. It can cause damage to the brain and kidneys, and can interfere with the production of red blood cells that carry oxygen to all parts of your body. The greatest risk of lead exposure is to infants, young children, and pregnant women. Scientists have linked the effects of lead on the brain with lowered IQ in children. Adults with kidney problems and high blood pressure can be affected by low levels of lead more than healthy adults. Lead is stored in the bones, and it can be released later in life. During pregnancy, the child receives lead from the mother's bones, which may affect brain

During pregnancy, the child receives lead from the mother's bones, which may affect brain development.

Sources of Lead Lead is a common metal found in the environment. Drinking water is one possible source of lead exposure. The main sources of lead exposure are lead-based paint and lead-contaminated dust or soil, and some plumbing materials. In addition, lead can be found in certain types of pottery, pewter, brass fixtures, food, and cosmetics. Other sources include exposure in the work place and exposure from certain hobbies (lead can be carried on clothing or shoes.) New brass faucets, fittings and valves, including those advertised as "lead-free" , may contribute lead to drinking water. The law currently allows end-use brass fixtures labeled National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) certified may only have up to two percent lead. Consumers should be aware of this when choosing fixtures and take appropriate precautions. When water is in contact with pipes or plumbing that contains lead for several hours, the lead may enter drinking water. Homes built before 1986 are more likely to have plumbing containing lead. New homes may also have lead; even "leadfree" plumbing may contain some lead. The EPA estimates that 10 to 20 percent of a person's potential exposure to lead may come from drinking water. Infants who consume mostly formula mixed with lead-containing water can receive 40 to 60 percent of their exposure to lead from drinking water. Don't forget about other sources of lead such as lead paint, lead dust, and lead in soil. Wash your children's hand and toys often as they can come into contact with dirt and dust containing lead. Steps You Can Take to Reduce Your Exposure to Lead in Your Water 1.Run you water to flush out lead. Run your water for 15-30 seconds or until it becomes cold or reaches a steady temperature before using it for drinking or cooking, if it hasn’t been used for several hours. This flushes lead-containing water from the pipes. 2.Use cold water for cooking and using baby formula. Do not cook with or drink water from the hot water tap; led dissolves more easily in hot water. Do not use water from the hot water tap to make formula. 3.Do not boil water to reduce lead. Boiling water will not reduce lead. 4.Look for alternative sources or treatment of water. You may want to consider purchasing bottled water or water filter. Read the package to be sure the filter is approved to reduce lead or contact NSF International at 800-NSF-8010 or www.nsf.org for information or performance standards for water filters. Be sure to maintain and replace a filter device in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions to protect water quality. 5.Test your water for lead. Call us at 719687-1887 to find how to get your water tested for lead. 6. Get your child tested. Contact you local health department or healthcare provider to find out how you can get your child tested for lead if you are concerned about exposure.
