Disgraced ex-sheriff going back to jail Sullivan missed or failed 46 drug tests during probation By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Former Arapahoe County Sheriff Pat Sullivan entered the courtroom using a cane and left it in handcuffs on June 19, on his way to the detention facility that once bore his name. Arapahoe County District Court Judge William Sylvester sentenced the 71-yearold Sullivan, who appeared gaunt but calm, to 15 months in jail for repeatedly violating the terms of his probation by missing or failing 46 drug tests, leaving the state without permission and continuing to associate with people involved in the case
that got him in trouble in the first place. “Mr. Sullivan does not see the connection between his lifestyle choices and his substance abuse,” said his probation officer, Hallie Miller. “It’s almost as if he doesn’t think the rules applied to him.” The decorated former sheriff was originally arrested Nov. 29, 2011, when a sting operation caught him trying to exchange methamphetamine for sexual acts with a man, law enforcement officials said. He faced one felony count each of distribution of a controlled substance, attempting to influence a public servant and possession of methamphetamine. He also was charged with solicitation of a prostitute, a misdemeanor. If convicted of the charges, he could have faced between one and six years in prison, but in 2012, Sullivan pleaded guilty to Class 6 felony drug possession and a
Class 3 misdemeanor of soliciting prostitution. He was fined $1,100 and sentenced to 38 days in county jail, with credit for eight days served. After his most recent arrest, Sullivan enrolled in a 28-day residential treatment program, which he was about halfway done with on June 19. He told the judge he was enjoying the program and felt better than he had in a long time. “I’m sorry that I did not succeed on probation,” he said. “I have a drug problem, and I have had a drug problem for some time. … I’m learning to deal with the shame and being honest with myself and my family.” Defense attorney Kevin McGreevy argued that Sullivan is succeeding in the Sheriff continues on Page 6

Arson suspected in apartment fire Residents used sheets, mattresses to escape flames By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Makeshift ropes of tied-together bed sheets still hung off the balconies of a burned-out Centennial apartment building hours after a fire sent eight people to the hospital. The scene at the Copper Terrace apartments was the aftermath of an arsonist’s work, investigators believe. In the early morning hours of June 23, residents climbed out of their apartments with sheets and mattresses to save themselves from a fire that would eventually claim eight of the 24 units in building G. Ten more units were damaged by smoke and water and six were left without any damage. No one was killed, but one person was seriously injured, authorities said. No further information on victims was being released. At 1:09 a.m. June 23, South Metro Fire Rescue received a call alerting them to the fire at 6550 S. Dayton St. Responders were on the scene in less than five minutes and were greeted by smoke and flames, and
The fire at the Copper Terrace apartments saw eight units fully engulfed by flames and 10 more sustain smoke damage. One person was seriously injured. the southeast section of the building was fully engulfed by the blaze. According to the American Red Cross Disaster Action Team, 14 people and two pets were displaced. A total of 45 people lived in the evacuated building. The apartment clubhouse was used as an evacuation center. The Red Cross,

Centennial City Council on June 16 passed a resolution approving a $9.5 million, 25-year tax credit for the developers of The Jones District, unanimously and without discussion. The resolution says the project will bring “benefit of a public nature justifying allocation of financial resources through development incentives.” The project is the brainchild of cable TV and online education magnate Glenn Jones, whose Jones International University is located immediately east of the proposed building site. In the fall of 2013, the city council approved redevelopment and zoning agreements for The Jones District, an ambitious 1.8 million-square-foot, mixed-use project that will be the city’s single-largest commercial development. The tax-incentive package requires the developer to adhere to the development regulations imposed by the city. It will reimburse the cost of construction use taxes specifically for infrastructure that benefits the general public, things like lighting, signs and streets. The length of the contract, 25 years, is intended to accommodate construction anticipated to occur in stages. If the developer defaults, or if nothing ever gets built, the city will not be obligated to make any payments. The 42-acre project, defined in Centennial’s 2011 Land Development Code as an “urban center,” will be built on land Jones owns near East Mineral Avenue and Interstate 25 that is the city’s largest undeveloped parcel of land under single ownership. Plans were submitted to the city in March 2013 for the project, which could

others. It stands out with its colorful decoration by Hispanic muralists.) Bentley said the painting “Tavira,” which will be in the show, resulted from an April trip to Tavira in Portugal where “the colors inspired me. The big turquoise in the middle is the ocean … I’m concentrating on abstracts and have done a variety.” She is proud of her five children, 11 grandchildren and one great-grandchild and enjoys visiting a son in London, who accompanied her to Portugal recently.
BEFORE
There’s an advantage to being a veteran artist: One has accumulated a lifetime of images and experiences that feed into the creative juices as they flow out into a new artistic endeavor. Painter Rita Bentley of Littleton is one of those who has stayed in the field consistently, producing new and different works year after year. And she is a founding member, eight years ago, of CoArt Gallery at 846 Santa Fe Drive in Denver’s Arts District. The gallery is artist-owned and -operated and follows her experiences with similar galleries in Littleton in earlier years. She will hold an exhibit called “Abstract Express” in Koelbel Library’s west gallery during the month of July. A reception is planned for 2-4 p.m. on July 13. Bentley says she “started in the Chicago area,” drawing a lot as a child. She recalls imitating the art from Saturday Evening Post covers — including those by Norman Rockwell. She has an associate degree from the College of DuPage in Glen Ellyn, Ill., and became interested in Native American history and art — which seemed to fit when she moved to Colorado in 1979. Those familiar with her earlier work will recall a Southwestern flavor and images. She creates in multimedia and maintains a working studio at Macy Dorf’s Artists on Santa Fe, a block south of CoArt at 747 Santa Fe. (Dorf, also from Littleton, is a longtime ceramics professional, who bought an old commercial building some years ago and converted it into showroom space plus artists’ studios for himself and

Community celebration coming up on July 4 Tens of thousands expected for day filled with good times By Tom Munds
tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com The joint community July 4 celebration at Belleview, Cornerstone and Progress parks is back this year, with most of the usual activities and fireworks planned for the annual event. “This has been such a successful event each year that we don’t plan to make many changes to something that is working so well,” said police Cmdr. Gary Condreay, one of the event organizers. “Again this year, there will be food vendors, for-a-fee activities like the climbing wall, as well as free events like the family field games. Of course, there will be a fireworks finale, which wraps us the day’s activities.” This is the 19th year agencies and communities have joined together to put on a July 4 celebration. For 2014, contributors and sponsors including Englewood, Littleton, South Suburban Parks and Recreation, Sheridan, Centennial and Arapahoe County. This year, the Colorado Credit Union, Herbaly Exploration and Land Rover of Denver have stepped up as private sponsors to help put on the event. Every year, the event requires a small army of volunteers. This year, that includes representatives from the Arapahoe Rescue Patrol and the Englewood Police Volunteers. Also, Englewood’s Country Buffet, an event sponsor, provides food to feed police officers, firefighters and volunteers. Belleview, Cornerstone and Progress parks are clustered near the intersection of West Belleview Avenue and South Windermere Street. The celebration is very popular, and an
estimated 50,000 people were at the parks for last year’s event. That number possibly doubles as the sun goes down and people begin parking and gathering along adjacent streets to watch the fireworks. The three parks are open all day and people generally start to arrive early, pick a good spot to watch the fireworks and set up for the day, even though the July 4 activities like the games and attractions at Cornerstone Park don’t get underway until about 3 p.m. But there are events that get started earlier, like the Fishing for Fun event that is held in the lake at Progress Park. Signup starts at 7 a.m. and the event runs until 11 a.m. Fishing is traditionally pretty good, because the state typically stocks the lake the night before the derby with an abundance of trout. Anglers should bring their own gear, and those 16 and older are reminded they must have a valid fishing license to take part in the event. Other early-starting activities include Belleview Park’s miniature train and children’s zoo, which open at 11 a.m. A small fee is charged for both attractions. Pirates Cove Family Aquatic Park is also open and requires an admission fee. Event-goers are reminded that rules in all three parks prohibit glass containers of any kind, alcoholic beverages or setting off any type of fireworks — including sparklers. Police will be patrolling the park on bikes to enforce the rules. The AirLife helicopter is scheduled to land in the park about 6 p.m. and, about 7 p.m., entertainment begins on the stage in Cornerstone Park featuring the band Buckstein. The band will be on stage for about two hours. The day’s activities wrap up about 9:30 p.m. with a countdown that launches the annual fireworks display.
NEWS IN A HURRY Fireworks are illegal in city
The Fourth of July is near and fireworks stands are popping up throughout the metro area. The City of Centennial is reminding residents that the sale, use or possession of all forms of fireworks is against the law in Centennial. This ban includes retail fireworks stands and the lighting of fireworks that may have been purchased legally outside of the city. Professional fireworks displays conducted by state licensed firework operators are allowed only with proper permits obtained from the appropriate fire protection district. Fireworks are defined very broadly in the Centennial ordinance. It covers all forms of fireworks, including bottle rockets, sparklers and snakes. The fireworks ban will be enforced by the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office, along with local fire and code officials. The penalty for fireworks possession or sale is a maximum of $1,000 for each offense.
Meeting rooms can be rented
The City of Centennial’s Eagle Street Facility located at 7272 S. Eagle Street has three meeting rooms available for rent: the Community Room, Large Conference Room and Small Conference Room. A pilot program is underway allowing nonprofit organizations to rent a meeting room free of charge for up to four hours
each month at this facility. This pilot program will be in effect through the end of the year. In September 2012, the city purchased an abandoned lumber yard and remodeled it into a fully functional facility to house Centennial Public Works, Animal Services, Code Compliance and the 24/7 Citizen Response Center. Schedule a reservation by visiting www.centennialco. gov/Online-Services/meeting-roomrental.aspx

Bow Mar likely to annex Southwest Plaza Commissioners get first look at plan in Jeffco By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com There appears to be a big winner in the guessing game that has surrounded Southwest Plaza for the last several months, and it’s the
tiny Town of Bow Mar. The Jefferson County Board of Commissioners unanimously passed a resolution on June 24 to act as a partner in the effort to annex the mall into Bow Mar. The board reserved the right to withdraw its support at any time up until the process is finalized, and pledged to gather input from Jefferson County residents. “We really haven’t had a

chance to find out what the citizens of Jefferson County want,” said Commissioner Casey Tighe. “I have not made up my mind whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.” The board was briefed on June 17 by representatives of General Growth Properties, which owns the mall, on plans to go forward with or without the county’s approval. “If Jefferson County does not take any action, GGP has the right to move forward on the proposed annexation project under alternative methods in accordance with state statutes,” reads the briefing paper. “This approach would not directly involve the county in the requests and discussions with the town. GGP prefers that Jefferson County be involved. (It) could leave JeffCo at a disadvantage with negotiations on agreements, services and revenue expendi-

ferson County’s director of development and transportation, explained that the commissioners’ decision hinged on a clause in the agreement that allows them to withdraw their support if negotiations break down before approval. “It also gives the county a chance to get feedback from the community,” she said. The deal includes everything from Wadsworth Boulevard to the west, up to and including the Super Target. Rossillon said it’s not yet known whether it includes the pedestrian bridge over Wadsworth that has been the source of much controversy. The briefing also revealed that GGP is spending up to $80 million on renovations that are under way. Perhaps the most noticeable change will be a more open feel, with sight lines widened down the main corridor and airier treatment of the ceilings. Many of the stores remain open, including all five anchors: Dillard’s, JCPenney, Macy’s, Sears and Dick’s Sporting Goods. An unconfirmed floor plan surfaced in February that depicts some newcomers, including Cheesecake Factory, Apple, H&M, Canvas & Cocktails, Claire’s, Gap/ Gap Kids and Maurice’s, Wahoo’s, Spicy Pickle, Pho 95, Noodles & Co. and Big Fat Pita. Gregory Sims, senior general manager of Southwest Plaza, said in April that it’s the most all-consuming remodel of a mall he’s seen in his 20 years in the business. Sims also confirmed at that time that GGP, which owns both Southwest Plaza and Park Meadows, had explored a deal to make the mall’s Littleton mailing address a physical reality. Sims said the remodel is currently a private undertaking, but annexation would allow for some type of public/private partnership. Counties don’t have the authority to set up such financial ventures, but towns and cities do. “The key to ensuring a vibrant regional mall for
the future is a proactive reinvestment program for the property,” reads the document. “Reinvestment opportunities for the mall can be accommodated through a long-term revenue-sharing agreement with a municipality … in which it is located.” For annexation to occur, at least one-sixth of the area to be annexed has to be touching the municipality that wants to annex it. That would be accomplished via the “flagpole” method, whereby Bow Mar would annex rights of way from Jefferson County along Bowles Avenue. Bow Mar officials hope to contract with the county to provide safety services, road maintenance, building permits, inspections and other services. “The agreements between the parties should ensure that the county gets the money we think we need out of this,” said Rossillon. GGP calls it a win-winwin situation. It gets tax incentives for improvements. The county gets a share of the retail tax and likely more property tax from the mall as its value goes up. And the town, which currently has no commercial property, gets a share of the retail. Of course, that means consumers could take a hit. When Southwest Plaza opened in 1981, a big marketing point was that it had no city sales tax because it was in unincorporated Jefferson County. It remains the only Colorado mall not in a city or town, though Jeffco voters approved a one-half cent sales tax in the southeast portion of the county to be used specifically for road improvements. A grand reopening of the mall is planned for fall 2015, and Sims stresses it will still be the indoor mall everyone is used to. “It will really be Colorado modern, embracing the Colorado lifestyle, the openness, the air, the lifestyle, the natural products,” he said. “We didn’t want to replicate Park Meadows, our sister mall. It will be a different look.”

Beauprez grabs GOP nod in governor’s race Former Congressman also made ballot after party’s 2006 primary
ment before Colorado Community Media’s print deadline. Gessler said he was disappointed with the results, but said he was proud of his “respectful” performance. “I thought we ran a great campaign overall,” he said. “Obviously, things didn’t turn out the way we wanted. It is what it is.” Hickenlooper congratulated Beauprez through an emailed press release in which the governor also touted the state’s recent uptick in economic numbers. “Over the past four years, we’ve seen Colorado go from 40th to fourth in job creation, and we’ve seen unemployment drop from 9 percent to 5.8 percent,” Hickenlooper said. “We’re committed to keeping the positive momentum going until Colorado is number one in the country for job creation.”
By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Former Congressman Bob Beauprez emerged from a crowded field of Republican hopefuls to capture the GOP nomination for governor on June 24. The native Coloradan hopes to erase memories of an unsuccessful 2006 bid for the governor’s mansion by defeating Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper in the fall. Speaking to an enthusiastic group of supporters at the downtown Denver Athletic Club, Beauprez invoked themes of freedom and liberty and a direction toward fewer government regulations. “There is a difference between living and just kind of getting along and living free,” Beauprez said during his victory speech. Beauprez defeated fellow candidates Tom Tancredo, also a former congressman, Secretary of State Scott Gessler and former state Senate Minority Leader Mike Kopp to capture the Republican nomination. Beauprez garnered just over 30 percent of the more than 380,000 votes that were cast. Tancredo finished second with 26.6 percent. Gessler took third with 23.2 percent of the tally. Kopp trailed the pack with 19.8 percent. Beauprez tried to set aside any doubts about party unity when he told supporters that he had spoken with the other three candidates, who had called to congratulate him on his win. Beauprez said the contest has always been “about who the real opponent in this race was. It’s John Hickenlooper.” “Ladies and gentlemen, we are a team,” he said to hoots and applause from his supporters. Beauprez took aim at Hickenlooper several times in his remarks to supporters. He called out the governor for signing laws that increase renewable energy mandates for rural electric cooperatives and for his support of gun legislation, such as universal background checks and bans on high-capacity ammunition magazines. And, what is expected to be a key campaign issue, Beauprez blasted Hickenlooper for granting a temporary reprieve last year for death row inmate Nathan Dunlap,

Cheese restaurant in 1996. “If he won’t lead, if he won’t enforce the laws in the state of Colorado, I will and Nathan Dunlap will see justice served,” Beauprez said. Republican voters answered the question of whether they would give Beauprez another chance, following his double-digit loss in the 2006 governor’s race against Bill Ritter. Beauprez made no reference to that defeat during his victory speech. But in a prior interview he likened himself to John Elway, who had also lost badly prior to winning two Super Bowls. Beauprez and Tancredo were atop public polling leading up to the race. But a round of late campaign advertisements that questioned whether he was the right fit to win a general election may have hurt Tancredo. Some Republicans were concerned that Tancredo’s polarizing and well-known views on immigration could hurt the party with moderates and Latino voters in November. Neither Tancredo nor Kopp could be reached for com-

Hickenlooper’s gun comments spark firestorm Anti-gun advocates still back governor, GOP ready for change at top By Vic Vela vvela@colorado communitymedia.com Gun control advocates say they were not taken aback by recent comments by Gov. John Hickenlooper that initially indicated a back-pedaling of his support for a key piece of gun legislation from last year. “Words are one thing, but I’m action-based,” said Tom Sullivan, whose son Alex was killed in the July 2012 Aurora Theater shooting. “In the signing of the gun bills last year, the actions of the governor showed me exactly where he is on this — that he’s firmly with us on common sense laws.” But others point to Hickenlooper’s recent remarks to a group of sheriffs — followed by an interview in which he sought to clarify those comments — as an example of failed leadership. “We don’t need excuses and we don’t (need) different versions of the story,” said Rep. Chris Holbert, RParker. “I don’t need apologies. I need a new governor.” The governor created a media firestorm after he acknowledged to a group of county sheriffs who were meeting June 13 in Aspen that he had been conflicted about signing a law that placed bans on high-capacity ammunition magazines. Hickenlooper told the sheriffs that he signed the legislation — which banned the sale of magazines that hold more than 15 rounds — after a member of his “staff made a commitment” to signing it, according to video footage of the governor’s comments, which were obtained by the
conservative website, Revealing Politics. The governor also said that he did not speak with former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg — a key financial backer of gun control measures — about the legislation. But phone records obtained by other media outlets show that calls between the two did in fact take place. A week after the fallout over his remarks, Hickenlooper clarified his comments and reaffirmed his commitment to the legislation. “If we went through the process again, I’d sign it again,” he told KDVR in an interview that aired on June 20. Hickenlooper also said in the interview that he made the decision to sign the legislation more than a month before the bill reached his desk and he acknowledged that he did speak with Bloomberg, but only after the governor’s mind was made up. Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora, who sponsored the legislation in the House, told Colorado Community Media that she received no assurances from the governor’s office that he was planning on signing her bill. “I never had any assurance that my bills would pass,” she said. “It’s just too much of a sensitive issue for someone to make that kind of declaration.” Fields said she has been “pleased with what the governor has done to pass these measures” and that she’s not concerned with the events from last week. “My reaction overall is that I’m really proud of the work we’ve been able to achieve in Colorado in regard to gun safety measures,” Fields said. “We’re setting the tone for what other states are doing on this issue and the measures we took were very common sense.” Republicans don’t think that’s the
case at all. Not a single Republican voted for the magazine ban at the Legislature in 2013. This year, they unsuccessfully failed to repeal that and a separate law that created universal background checks on gun sales. House Minority Leader Brian DelGrosso, R-Loveland, took issue with Hickenlooper telling county sheriffs that he had no idea that the bills would be so controversial. “Prior to his signature, there were hundreds of people including sheriffs from around the state testifying at the Capitol in opposition to these gun control bills,” DelGrosso said. “I would think testimony from law enforcement along with thousands of protestors and hundreds of thousands of emails would have shown Governor Hickenlooper these gun control bills were controversial.” Holbert, who is leaving the House to run for a state Senate seat, sponsored the repeal effort in the House this year. He believes that Hickenlooper, who is running for re-election this year, has hurt himself on this issue many times and that it will cost him, politically. “There are now two or three versions of this story,” Holbert said. “But who made (the) decision? Did the governor make a decision as a leader or was it a staffer? Is he beholden to a staffer? And who is this staffer? “No one could have hurt John Hickenlooper more than John Hickenlooper.” But what happened last week was just all noise in the minds of key gun control supporters. “He signed the bills into the law and since that time it has saved lives,” Sullivan said. “I don’t see any of these (gun laws) as road blocks. I see them as see them as speed bumps, to slow the process down a little, to make us safer in a common sense way.”

But the answer is not prison.” The judge agreed that Sullivan should be treated like anyone else. “Which is what I did, Mr. Sullivan, when I originally sent you to probation,” Sylvester said before handing down the sentence. The prosecution laid out what it called Sullivan’s history of deception, manipulation, lies and excuses. “He is now a public-safety issue,” said prosecutor Robert Shapiro. “This defendant was always in charge, and he was always trying to manipulate the situation. … The community can’t help him anymore.
tion. The afternoon of June 24, the sheriff’s office issued a news release stating that investigators “determined the origin and cause of the fire was arson.” “Investigators are still working leads in the case and it is still an active investigation,” the release stated. Anyone with information related to the fire is being asked to call the sheriff’s office at 303-795-4711. Investigators are particularly interested in reviewing any video that may have been captured.

We tried to do everything possible to keep him out of the department of corrections.” According to his probation officer, Sullivan repeatedly blamed the failed drug tests on medical treatments he was receiving, but never produced a doctor’s note to that effect. He also continued to visit a home occupied by several men with known mental and legal issues, saying he was there on behalf of a state agency to help the men. When his brother died, Sullivan left a message with the probation officer that he was leaving to be with family in Texas but didn’t wait around for permission, despite

the fact that not leaving the state was one of the conditions of his probation. “The manipulation and the untruths suggest that he believes he is above the law,” said Miller. Sullivan, a Littleton resident, was the Arapahoe sheriff from 1984 to 2002. The Arapahoe detention facility had been named after Sullivan, but county commissioners decided to change the name in 2012. “I ask forgiveness from those I have hurt,” Sullivan told the judge June 19. “All I can do is live a better life from today.”

of Events The River - Littleton’s Past, Present and Future Calendar For a complete calendar of South Metro Denver By Natalie Harden On Thursday, June 12 the South Metro Denver Chamber’s Littleton Business Coalition and the Economic Development Group joined forces at Hudson Gardens to discuss Littleton’s past, present and future. Over 100 Chamber members attended the presentation, sponsored by Hudson Gardens. The morning began with networking followed by presentations by Rich Meredith, executive director of the Hudson Gardens and Event Center, who presented the history and future of Hudson Gardens. His remarks were followed by Dave Lorenz, executive director of South Suburban Park and Recreation District (SSPRD), who discussed the role of SSPRD along the Mary Carter Greenway trail. “This event was a great way for two of our strongest Chamber groups to collaborate on Littleton’s continued growth and economic development,” said Marcia McGilley, interim CEO of the South Metro Denver Chamber. Laura Kroeger, assistant program manager
at Urban Drainage and Flood Control District, spoke next regarding the coordinated planning that is occurring along the South Platte River and future economic development opportunities. City Manager Michael Penny then spoke about the existing activity along the river, from the Breckenridge Brewery development to planning for the Ensor site development. Finally, Mayor Pro Tem Bruce Beckman introduced Jim Taylor, board chair of Littleton Invests For Tomorrow (LIFT) (formerly the Riverfront Authority), who presented the city’s plans to use the Urban Renewal Authority for future economic revitalization. Closing remarks were provided by David Shefte, CEO of HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital-Littleton. Norman Stucker, member of the Chamber Board of Directors and both groups, commented on the event. “The future is always about tomorrow, not yesterday; in that light I look forward to transitioning from the Chair of the Littleton Business Coalition (LBC) to a
regular member of the Executive Committee Chamber events and for more information, in support of initiatives like the approval of visit our web site at www.bestchamber.com an Urban Renewal Authority in Littleton; supporting community efforts like Clarity or call 303-795-0142.

Shredding Event raised $4,000 for Littleton Boy Scout troop and several hundred pounds of food donations for Cabrini’s Cupboard A Littleton Boy Scout troop collected $4,000 in donations. Cabrini’s Cupboard at St. Frances Cabrini Catholic Church added several hundred pounds of donations to the food it provides to people needing a meal. And hundreds of residents from the South Metro area unloaded more than 10,000 pounds of documents to be shredded and more than 40,000 pounds of used electronics gear for recycling.
The event was free to the public but people taking advantage of shredding and recycling were encouraged to provide cash donations to Boy Scout Troop 4 of Littleton or non-perishable food donations that went to Cabrini’s Cupboard. “I can’t say enough about the scouts who showed up to help,” Braunschweiger said. “They really pitched in to help make the day a huge success.”
Those were the highlights of the free shredding and electronics recycling event held June 7 in Highlands Ranch by members of LEADapalooza, one of the South Metro Denver Chamber’s leads groups. The group has been meeting since 2009 and has 34 highly dedicated members. “As one of our longest-running and most successful leads groups, LEADapalooza is a vital part of the South Metro Denver Chamber,” said Marcia McGilley, interim CEO of the South Metro Denver Chamber. “They embody our brand promise of “Remarkable Relationships & a Thriving Community.” “This is the most successful event of any kind that I’ve ever been involved with,” said Cheryl Braunschweiger of ALMC Mortgage at NOVA Home Loans, primary organizer of the event. “The shredding truck provided by SHRED-
IT was so full that the sides were bulging,” Braunschweiger said. “And Techno+Rescue had to bring in several extra trucks because of the tremendous volume of items we collected for recycling. Everyone involved was blown away by the amount of material we collected.”
Sponsors included 22 LEADapalooza companies: 303 Denver Chiropractic; A Cleaner Carpet; ALMC Mortgage at NOVA Home Loans; Arrow B Architecture; Brickyard BBQ; C Squared Computer Consulting; Centennial Leasing & Sales; Experience Pros Radio Show; Handyman Matters; Holly Mullins, Farmers Insurance Group; JerryBrownPR; Major Mom; Mark Thomas, RE/MAX Professionals; Nexus Financial Services; PearleVisionStreets@SouthGlenn; PROformance Apparel; Riviera Finance; RMK Cartridge; SG Associates; Cathy Reilly, Silpada Designs; SuperMedia; and Weksler Benefits.

Professor seeks help in finding answers By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Imagine a world without reading. Now imagine a world where you could read anytime, anywhere, even in the dark. Matt Maurer says 90 percent of blind people are living in the former world, and he hopes to help bring them into the latter. Maurer, a professor of instructional technology at Butler University in Indiana, visited the Colorado Center for the Blind June 10 to enlist the help of its students with his research into Braille, a language that is languishing on the vine. A 2009 study by the National Federation of the Blind found that fewer than 10 percent of the 1.3 million people in the United States who are legally blind can read Braille, and only about 10 percent of blind children are learning it. This leads to high dropout and unemployment rates in the blind community, which is likely to get worse as baby boomers age and the incidence of diabetes, a leading cause of blindness, skyrockets. Maurer is traveling to centers like CCB across the country, filming the hands of Braille readers along the way to see how the fastest ones achieve their speed. “We know a lot about good technique in Braille, but very little of it is documented,” he said. He’s looking for things like whether they use one or both hands, how many fingers they use and how much pressure they apply. He’s seen people who just use one finger, and people who read the beginning of the line with their right hand and finish with the left while the right one finds the new line. He’s even seen people whose hands can read separately, and people who start with one hand on either side of the line and then meet in the middle. Few can really explain why they read the way they do, he said, and some can’t even describe what they do accurately. Jasmine McCandless, 8, told Maurer she reads with all 10 fingers — mostly joke books, her favorite — but then realized that she really only touches the paper with two at a time. Her teacher, Michelle Chacon, said her two hands usually read independently, unless she’s tired. Chacon reads about 180 words a minute. Maurer said it’s hard to know for sure what’s average, but he thinks it’s around 150 or so. Maurer’s interest in educating the blind
Michelle Chacon, a teacher at the Colorado Center for the Blind, can read Braille at a rate of about 180 words a minute. is rooted in family. He is sighted, but his brother, Marc, has been blind since birth and president of the NFB since 1986. Both passionate about education, they worked together in 2006 on a project that examined best practices and common characteristics of outstanding educators for the blind. But the key to education for any child, sighted or blind, is, of course, literacy. “Braille is full literacy, audio is only partial literacy,” said Matt Maurer. He explained that many kids with visual impairment are steered toward visual reading in public schools with limited resources, even when they know the child’s sight will eventually get worse. And magnifying tools take away from the experience of reading, he said, kind of like sitting in the front row at a movie theater. But one of the biggest reasons Braille is endangered is that technology meant to ease the lives of the blind has, perhaps, eased them a bit too much. “I don’t hear anybody saying sighted kids should give up print just because they have technology,” said Maurer. “We’ll give up Braille when you give up print.” Reading, whether done through the eyes or the hands, is a more active process than listening, he said — consider the difference between reading a book and listening to a book on tape. “Print and Braille are about creating meaning from symbols,” said Maurer. The NFB agrees. “No one would seriously suggest that alternate sources of information, like television and radio, replace the need for a sighted child to learn to read; the same should be true for Braille,” says the NFB.

Ham radio operators to set up station Littleton-based group takes part in global field day By Tom Munds
tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com Members of the Littleton Radio Amateurs, often called ham operators, will set up their equipment at the senior shelter in Cornerstone Park on June 28. For 24 hours, they will join others around the world in the Amateur Radio Relay League’s field day activities. The focus of field day is to demonstrate emergency communications without the use of phone systems, the Internet, power grid or any other link that could be knocked out in case of an emergency. Locally, the Littleton club members will set up and operate a number of positions and use a number of methods to make contact with other amateur radio operators. Operators will use voice communications as well as Morse code to transmit the messages. The operators at the station will not use commercial power nor communicate by telephone or the Internet.
A member of the Littleton Radio Amateurs uses Morse Code to send a message during last year’s annual 24-hour field day event, A number of the amateur radio operators will again set up their station at Cornerstone Park for the exercise that begins at noon June 27. File photo Many men and woman take up amateur radio as hobbies. The first step is to pass the tests and obtain a license. Then, it is up to the
newly licensed operator to obtain the equipment that will operate on the frequencies set by the Federal Communications Commis-
sion for amateur radio operations. Contacts for an amateur radio operator can range from someone across town to an operator in a country halfway around the world. Field day is an annual ARRL event. The league is an international amateur radio organization, and its website states more than 35,000 amateur radio operators around the world will be operating and communicating from remote locations during field day activities. Amateur radio operators, often called ham operators, have stepped up to provide emergency communications for years. When an emergency knocks out phones and other regular communications, amateur radio operators often set up and operate their equipment to provide a communication link for emergency personnel. Another service is sending “I am OK” messages to families of area residents. All the services are provided free of charge. Amateur radio operators provided communications links during last year’s floods, plus they have provided backup communications for the American Red Cross and even the International Space Station.

opinions / yours and ours
Tune in to major life lesson from TV Now, I am not typically a huge fan of television shows. Maybe I should say it differently: My preference has always been to read when I have downtime, or write, or just take some quiet time instead of watching TV. And I would say that for most of my adult life that has been consistent. Of course, there are the exceptions to the rule, such as the Weather Channel, where Jim Cantore has been bringing great stories and keeps us hanging on the edge of our seats with his live action shots for so many years. Then there is the Discovery Channel, and really, what is better than shows about Vikings or Shark Week? And I love local news broadcasts and catching up on everything that is happening locally and around the world. Lastly, I enjoy having baseball on in the background as I read or write — I love the game and will watch or listen to almost any game that may be on. This past year, I have been introduced to a few programs such as “Person of Interest,” “The Good Wife,” and “24.” For this column I wanted to focus on the last one, “24.” If you are familiar
with the premise, you understand that every show for the entire season happens one hour at a time. Meaning it can start at 4 p.m. and every event that takes place during that show will be completed by 5 p.m. Each episode, tons of action and loaded with drama, all takes place each week within 60 minutes. So as I watched the most recent intense, action-packed and dramafilled one hour of Jack Bauer’s life on “24,” I was caught up in thinking about a program based on a philosophy that Zig Ziglar used to promote and embody himself, the idea of being a 24 Hour Champion. So what does that mean? Zig would remind us that we are not just eight- to
10-hour per day employees or business people: We are moms and dads, we are community volunteers, we are part of groups and associations, and we have our circles of friends. So it’s not just about what we do to earn a living or support our family, it’s about who we are in each hour of each 24-hour day we are blessed enough to spend here on earth. How do we do this? We have to focus on our self-confidence and healthy selfimage; we have to maintain a positive attitude; we have to build and develop relationships at home and at work; we have to set goals and pursue those goals; and we have to live with hope. Now back to why this resonated with me during a recent viewing of a television program. The concept in the show “24” is that we see everything that is going on in a window of 60 minutes. So I thought about if someone was viewing my efforts, actions, words and, yes, even drama, would they see someone who is caught up in the moment or would they see someone who is maximizing each minute of each hour to work on mind, body, and spirit? As much as we believe we are not in control of our time or
maybe even question our control over our own future, it really is in our grasp to live the life we want to live. When we live as 24 Hour Champions we are truly set up and empowered to succeed. Becoming a 24 Hour Champion does not mean we are awake for 24 hours. What it means is that we stay wellrested, work hard, play hard, volunteer when and where we can, laugh hard, learn hard, and love even harder than everything mentioned above. We, not anyone else, we alone are responsible for how we see ourselves and attempt to live up to becoming a 24 Hour Champion based on how we treat our minds, our bodies, and our spirits. I would love to know more about your own 24 Hour Champion efforts, and I would love to share more about the concept with you if you would send me an email at gotonorton@gmail.com. When we aspire to be better than good, it really will be a better than good week.

letter to the editor Coffman shouldn’t take votes for granted Dear Mr. Mike Coffman: Obama Care is the worst law passed by a Congress/president if not in our nation’s history, certainly in my 66-year lifetime. The Obama Care Law is unconstitutional, infringes states rights, severely restricts individual rights and freedoms, unnecessarily expands the pervasive reach of the federal government into our daily lives, and is extremely expensive adding to the country’s children and grandchildren’s debt. Mr. Coffman, you had the opportunity to vote to de-fund Obama Care and you did not! My “NONE” vote cast in the Colorado Republican primary is to emphatically express my dissatisfaction with your vote and to inform you that you cannot take my vote for granted even though you are the only Republican Party candidate in the 6th Congressional District. Just as Mr. Eric Cantor, U.S. House Majority Leader, could not count on a majority of his constituencies’ primary votes in Virginia’s 7th Congressional District, you cannot take my vote for granted in the upcoming November 2014 general election. I will encourage my friends, colleagues, acquaintances, neighbors, and fellow voters residing in the Colorado 6th U.S. House Congressional District to also vote “NONE” in the November 2014 general election.
Napping is a decision I don’t have to sleep on This is a tribute to naps. W. C. Fields said that the best cure for insomnia was to “get plenty of sleep.” I have never had insomnia, but I know people who do, and it must be very depressing. Sleep is one of the best things there is, and it is free. Naps are gifts to ourselves. I take at least one a day, and sometimes two. When I take a nap, it is like having two days in one. If I take two naps, I will get up at 2 or 3 a.m. and start my day. Napping is different than sleeping at night. It’s more intense. The dreams are different. I subscribe to NapDreams, and always ask for the same ones. Either UCLA is humiliating USC, or Grace Kelly and I are in a remake of “Rear Window.” I take my chances with late-night dreams, and usually wind up dreaming about someone I haven’t seen in 25 years. For some reason, I never dream
about Jennifer or Smitty. Maybe because I don’t have to? But I do dream about my mother and father, especially my father, all the time. And they are very vivid and real. How do little kids feel about naps these days? I can’t remember how I felt. I might have balked. I don’t balk now. Give me half an hour or an hour, and I wake up with clarity I didn’t have before I fell asleep.

What happens in the interim? As a state Senator, I am often asked what I do when we’re not in session at the Capitol. In Colorado, we originally designed a “citizen legislature,” to be in session January to May, and then go back to our “citizen” jobs in the interim. However, now, we are called a “hybrid legislature” since our legislative commitments have increased due to more complicated policy issues and larger populations with more constituent needs. Now, many of us serve on policy committees, task forces, and commissions all year long. So, you might want to know what your state senator is doing during the 2014 interim and year-round. This year, I serve on: • Colorado Workforce Development Council — finding policies and methods to assist with economic development for businesses from the people side; connecting candidates to job skills training and job placement assistance in order to transition back into the workplace or transfer skills into another industry.
• Child Protection Ombudsman Advisory Work Group — Now in the third year of operation, the Child Protection Ombudsman serves as an objective resource to receive concerns, complaints, and compliments about the child welfare system. It’s now time to revisit the set-up of the office and its relationship with other agencies and its governance model, ensuring its autonomy and accountability. • Joint Technology Committee (vice chair) — This is a new joint legislative committee that will have oversight of our state information technology investments. Our goal is to save potentially millions of
dollars as we utilize best practices from the private sector into State IT projects and hardware/software acquisitions. • Office of Dispute Resolution Advisory Council — make recommendations to the Office of Dispute Resolution and Judicial branch regarding the court-appointed mediators. Due to some consistency issues affecting citizens, we’re currently looking at requiring minimum qualifications and training standards for the court mediators who now may be paid or volunteer. • Capitol Building Advisory Committee (chair) — overseeing and making recommendations regarding the State Capitol building complex; the current restoration of the Capitol dome and maintenance of the building and grounds, while preserving our state history. • Conflict Resolution Month — This “synergizers” group coordinates activities throughout the state during Conflict Resolution Month, October. Year-round, we work to educate and influence elected officials and communities about the high costs of conflict and the tools and tech-
niques of managing conflict. • The Treatment of Persons with Mental Illness in the Criminal Justice System (chair) — With almost 80 percent of Colorado inmates with mental illness or substance abuse, and who will end up back in our communities, this is critically both a human and fiscal issue. Year-round, I also work on my monthly town halls in Littleton and Aurora, constituent needs, community projects, and preparation for legislation. Also, some of us occasionally, try to have part-time work on the side to supplement our annual salary of $30,000. Ah, the interim life of a state Senator. Any questions, feel free to contact me or come to one of my town halls each month.

They always tell drunks in films to sleep it off. But if you’re a drunk and you sleep it off, you might not be able to get to sleep again for days. Unless. Unless you get drunk again. And then the cycle begins. I don’t recommend it. Sleep deprivation is a serious thing. I have other things, but I don’t have sleep deprivation. If I am feeling sleepy, I take a nap. It helps to be retired. My “jobs” are to paint and to write, and I am always way ahead on my painting schedule, and way ahead on my column schedule. I do yard work and grocery shopping, and that’s about it. So if the arms of Morpheus are reaching for me, I fall into them. If flights of angels come to carry me to my rest, I gladly go with them. My roommate appreciates my naps too. I think Smitty sleeps about 18 hours a day, and he is always happy when I join him. He is so quiet when he sleeps that I sometimes have to hold a mirror to his nose. He never snores, but now and then he makes little sounds as if he just met Miss Dachshund October. Or for some
reason he wags his tail, or he kicks his left hind leg. I can nap on the bed, on the couch, on the floor, on the kitchen counter — it doesn’t seem to matter. And I don’t have a Sleep Number bed. I know I am lucky. I don’t have a bad back. I have a good back. I don’t toss and turn. I wake up in the same position that I fell asleep in. Smitty moves around though. He’ll start out near my legs, and winds up next to the pillow. When I wake up in the morning, he wakes up, and comes nearer and puts his two front paws on my chest. You can’t do any better than a dachshund. “Researchers found that men who took naps at least three times a week had a 37 percent lower risk of heartrelated death.” I’m in. And there is a name for the way I nap, nap, and sleep. It figures. I can’t invent anything. It’s called “polyphasic sleep,” meaning that you sleep multiple times in a 24-hour period. That’s Smitty. And that’s me. Sweet dreams. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@ comcast.net.

Sculptures installed at Kaiser a metaphor for survival By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Lyons artist John King and his wife Sally were celebrating the completion of his massive Lone Tree work, “Tree of Life,” last September as floodwaters rose outside their home and art studio. Hours later, the studio was destroyed, the couple’s home badly damaged and their community was devastated. All that remained of the “Tree of Life” was the brilliantly colored seed pod, “The Seed,” the base piece of the five-element work King created for Kaiser Permanente’s Lone Tree medical office building. “We walked back in the next day and I saw it,” King said. “Here’s this seed pod, standing upright in the water. It was really uplifting, very emotional. The metaphor became literal.” King’s work includes five interactive pieces, each representing a phase of life and
nature. The 80-foot-tall complete work was designed to fill the glass, five-level staircase of Kaiser’s Park Meadows Drive building. Only “The Seed” was installed for the building’s December grand opening. The remainder of the rebuilt work was unveiled during a special June 23 ceremony. “The Seed” sculpture standing outside the Kings’ Apple Valley home became a symbol of hope and inspiration for the community of Lyons. As the Kings began the restoration of their home, rebuilding of the studio and started anew on the four lost elements of “Tree of Life,” the seed pod was visible to passers-by. Lyons still is rebuilding in the wake of floods that affected 2,000 square miles in northern Colorado between Sept. 11 and 15, 2013. In Lyons, located at the confluence of two creeks, lives, businesses and homes were lost. The Kings don’t view the floods’ impact with bitterness; they consider living next to
a moving body of water a choice, a privilege and a risk. Even as the creek swelled Sept. 11 to devastating levels, the Kings saw the amazing beauty in the moment. Just before they evacuated the area, the couple sat in their car and witnessed a large cottonwood careening toward the bridge that connects their home to the artist’s studio. “We were there looking at it in the headlights; a cottonwood tree snapped it in half,” King remembered. “We love rivers. We go on vacations and go down rivers in a boat. This little creek became as big as the Grand Canyon. It was fantastic. “We’re over the shock at this point. What hasn’t left us is the beauty.” He hopes the beauty of nature, repre-
sented in “Tree of Life,” also inspires those who come to the Kaiser building. “There’s a lot of adversity that comes through the doors here,” King said. “Everyone has their story and challenge. This is one of many.” Each piece of “Tree of Life,” which includes the seed pod sculpture, a set of six leaves, trees, a work of overlapping circles and the flower, is designed to be touched and to move independently. It’s intended not only to provide aesthetic value, but as a health incentive that encourages people to use the stairs. Kaiser Permanente officials would not say how much the piece, or the other numerous works of art included in the Lone Tree building, cost the company.

Soap Box Derby racers turn up the heat Youths compete at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds By Anna Sheffer
Special to Colorado Community Media Summer means the end of school, but for Soap Box Derby drivers, it has an additional meaning: racing season. The eighth annual Sertoma Mile High Soap Box Derby took place at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds on June 22, with drivers ages 7-18 competing to bring home first place and attend the World Championship finals in July at Derby Downs in Akron, Ohio. The Mile High Soap Box Derby had a rocky start until Sertoma began sponsoring the event eight years ago. Sertoma, which helps people with speech and hearing disabilities, partnered with the derby, and both organizations have had better exposure as a result. This is the second year that the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds hosted the derby. Previously, it was held in Littleton. Diane Oppenheim, one of the volunteers from Sertoma, said the fairgrounds benefited the event. “That was our longtime goal,” she said, “to get a permanent place to block off the street.” The competition consists of two weight classes — stock cars, which weigh 200 pounds, and super stock cars, which weigh 230 pounds. Drivers race in heats consisting of two one-one-one races. Racers swap two wheels with their competitors before phase one of each heat and then swap all four wheels before phase two of each heat in order to discourage unfair tampering with the cars’ wheels. And though factors like the weight of the car impact the outcome of a race, drivers still race strategically. “It’s really about the drivers and not about the cars,” said Buzz Pankoff, Soap Box Derby director. In order to increase speed, each racer hunches as close to the wheel as possible
Super stock finalists Aly Corvin and Camden Martin compete for first place in the Sertoma Mile High Soap Box Derby at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds on June 22. Photos by Anna Sheffer while still looking over the hood of the car. The difference in times between two competitors can come down to fractions of a second, so racers make themselves as aerodynamic as possible — even tucking their hair into the backs of their shirts. And the racers are as varied as they come. They include veterans, first-timers and one unique car, Caidn Matthews, who races using a handbrake. Every racer worked hard, but at the end of the day, only one driver per weight class could win. First-year racer Camden Martin, 10, won the super stock division. “[Winning] feels great ‘cause it’s my first year ever,” Martin said. In the stock car division, siblinga AJ Sipres, 8, and Chaelyn Sipres, 11, went head-to-head for first place. Chaelyn took home first and AJ second. “It felt fun because he always thinks he’s the winner and I showed him better today,” Chaelyn said with a grin.
The top five super stock racers pose with their trophies. From left to right: Adam Smith (fourth place), Aly Corvin (second place), Camden Martin (first place), Clare Mahoney (third place) and Elena Martinez (fifth place).

Just plane fun
Glass artist is man of darn few words Dale Chihuly, the “it man” in the world of art glass, clearly prefers to let his stupendous pieces of spectacular art speak for themselves rather than pontificating on his work. During a five-minute media meet-andgreet recently, Chihuly politely posed for pictures in front of the Monet Garden Pool at the Denver Botanic Gardens where an installation of the artist’s genius dots the grounds. The exhibition runs through Nov. 30. He answered a couple of questions while cameras, notebooks and voice recorders pressed in. This man of few words lets his art do the talking, and it has a lot to say. The exhibit, which features installations (some designed specifically for the Denver Botanic Gardens) at 14 sites, is a don’t-miss opportunity to bask in colorful beauty. Now that I’ve seen the show during the day, a nighttime return is on my short list. This is the Rocky Mountain Region’s first major outdoor exhibition of artwork by the celebrated American artist. Chihuly’s sculptures — ranging in size and form — add bold colors and dramatic beauty to the Gardens’ 24-acre urban oasis. Chihuly is credited with revolutionizing the Studio Glass movement and elevating the perception of the glass medium from the realm of craft to fine art. He is renowned for ambitious architectural installations around the world, in historic cities, museums and gardens. While I was oohing and aahing over the Saffron Tower & Cattails in the Ellipse Garden, a 30-foot-tall creation made of 312 hand-formed yellow neon tubes, the artist, along with “handlers,” rode up to the site in a golf cart. I asked him what he was thinking as he gazed at the Saffron Tower. “It has a lot of power, especially at night,” Chihuly said. Well said. For more information and to buy tickets, go to botanicgardens.org/exhibits/outdoor/chihuly/about.
Changeable Chihuly
The artist who earned his chops in the international glass art world wanted to stay at The Ritz-Carlton or The Four Seasons during his Denver visit. I’m told by an impeccable source that The Ritz graciously offered the Seattlebased iconic artist the Presidential Suite gratis as a donation to the Denver Botanic Gardens, but when Chihuly arrived at the Denver digs, he was taken aback by the Chihuly-knockoff glass piece installed on the hotel’s second floor. So he switched to The Four Seasons.
Art gets out
The Arvada Center’s summer exhibition, “Unbound: Sculpture in the Field,” creates a new outdoor visual arts area on the south grounds of the center. “Unbound: Sculpture in the Field” began by re-imagining the existing open space with the intent to create a compelling and engaging outdoor sculpture exhibition. In partnership with Englewood’s Museum of Outdoor Arts, which Parker continues on Page 16
The “Aluminum Overcast” was the guest of honor, again, at The Wings Over the Rockies annual hangar dance. The 1940s-era event pairs some of the area’s best foods and wine with a nostalgic World War II feel. Colorado general aviation supporters closed the hangar door on this year’s General Aviation Appreciation Week. The annual event strives to showcase how general aviation and community airports play a major role in the lives of not only Coloradans, but also the operation of businesses, farms and the state’s emergency response efforts. The celebration kicked off June 19 with the Colorado Aviation Business Association luncheon held at The Wildlife Experience. The event was punctuated with keynote speaker author and former U.S. Air Force Thunderbird leader, Brig. Gen. Dan Cherry. Friday followed with a charity golf tournament at the Lone Tree Golf Course, and Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum kept things swinging with their annual 1940s annual hangar dance held at Centennial Airport.

Wings Over the Rockies hosted its annual charity hangar dance to raise funds for their new air and space museum.

The annual event held at Signature Flight Support in Centennial, helped wrap up Colorado General Aviation Week and served as a fundraiser for the new Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum, which, along with a STEM-based charter school, will be built at Centennial Airport.

Botanic Gardens exhibit is glass act Chihuly’s standout pieces join forces with nature By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com In 2001, renowned Seattle-based glass artist Dale Chihuly began what has become the “Garden Cycle,” which involves placing his astonishing creations among the flower, shrub and tree collections in large public gardens in the U.S. and abroad. His installation at Denver Botanic Gardens opened June 14 and will remain until Nov. 30, as plants grow and change through the seasons. It will look different at different times of day, in sun or shadows — and sensational when lighted after dark. Some, such as the “Perennial Fiori” sprouting from formal flower beds, or the orange, tree-like “Summer Sun” one sees near the entrance, are obviously inspired by plant forms. The “Blue Icicle Towers” that greet the entering visitor with a burst of glitz and glamour perhaps speak more of rock crystals — still in the realm of nature. Just beyond is “Summer Sun,” a treelike blaze of 1,901 orange, red and yellow glass elements. As one enters, a turn to the left will pass through formal flower beds with sleek “Perennial Fiori” amidst the lupines, daisies and echinaceas: sleek, striped, curvy shapes and slender pointed ones in varied colors. Near the Waring House, where administrative offices are found, is a pond with “White Persian Towers” and “Turquoise Reeds and Marlins.” A look to the right brings one to the 30-foot-tall “Saffron Tower and Cattails,”
if you go Denver Botanic Gardens is at 1007 York St., Denver. The Chihuly exhibit runs through Nov. 30. Information: 720-865-3500, botanicgardens.org. Admission: $12.50, adults. See website for related programming.
with neon tubes. Walk past a pond and the “White Tower” and return to the main walkway, headed west towards the main water gardens, where floats, in and around boats, as well as the “Blue and Purple Bat and Walla Wallas” await discovery. At the western edge in the Porter Plains, in prairie grass, is a series of tall, thin “Red Reeds,” with some of the longest hand-blown glass elements Chihuly and his team created. One will want to return at dusk when lights give a magical glow to these art pieces. Special night programming is planned in October and November from 5:30 to 9 p.m. Tour guides will be available Fridays through Sundays at 8:30 a.m. and 6 p.m. and family-oriented tours will be offered on Saturdays from 10-11 a.m. and 2-3 p.m. Children must be accompanied by an adult. See the website for other programs for photographers and painters. Chihuly’s studio shipped six 53-foot containers to Denver for the show, and it took 11 team members 11 days to install all the works. There are 14 sites with installations in the Botanic Gardens, and maps are available to find them all. While we realize that some consider the Chihuly art glass works a distraction from the plants, we feel that the Botanic
“Float Boat” by Dale Chihuly is in the Monet Pool at Denver Botanic Gardens Photo by Sonya Ellingboe Gardens is also proud to be a certified museum, and its annual inclusion of art elements is an entirely appropriate way to entice more viewers for gardens and art.
It’s just a most happy place to spend a few hours on any given day — on more than one occasion, since the plants are constantly growing and changing. Relax and smell the flowers!

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF JunE 23, 2014
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) A change of season reinvigorates the Lamb, helping to overcome the effects of a recent slower-paced period. This is a good time to restate your feelings for that certain someone. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) You might not like using your authority to correct a workplace situation, but that’s what being placed in charge is all about. Besides, you have people ready to lend support if need be. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Your creativity continues to run high and helps guide you to make some fine choices in the work you’re doing. Keep the weekend free for those special people in your life.

GALLERY OF GAMES
CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Don’t be surprised if you experience a sudden spurt of energy strong enough to pull you out of that recent period of indecision and put you back in charge of your own goals. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) This is a good time for Leos and Leonas to set new goals regarding health, educational choices and possible career moves. The plans you make now could be a blueprint for your future. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) You might have much to offer a potential employer, but it can all be overwhelmed by too many details. Let the facts about you speak for themselves without any embellishments. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) This is a good week to balance your responsibilities to your work-a-day world with your obligations to the people in your private life. Expect news that could lead to a change in plans. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to nov 21) A changing attitude on the part of a once determined adversary could cause changes down the line. Be prepared to take advantage of an unexpected new opportunity. SAGITTARIUS (nov 22 to Dec 21) You’d be a truly wise Sagittarius to be skeptical about an offer that doesn’t answer all your questions. Even a colleague’s testimonial doesn’t replace facts that aren’t there. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) It’s a good idea to avoid spending on unnecessary purchases this week in order to keep a money reserve against a possible upcoming (but, fortunately, temporary) shortfall. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) More information is what you should demand regarding that workplace situation that recently came to light. Don’t be surprised at who might turn up as one of your supporters. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) You might still be in a “treading water” mode, but by midweek, a shift in your aspect favors taking a more active role in pushing for the changes you feel are necessary. Good luck. BORN THIS WEEK: You exude a warm, caring attitude that comforts everyone who comes into your life. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

Former Arapahoe skater named DU captain Grant Arnold to lead Pioneers on ice next season By Jim Benton
jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Grant Arnold will be wearing a “C” on his sweater next season for the college hockey team he grew up watching. Arnold, who attended Arapahoe High School for three years, was named captain of the University of Denver hockey team for the 2014-15 season by coach Jim Montgomery. “I don’t want to say it’s a dream come true,” said Arnold. “I never really thought the opportunity would present itself. It was a huge honor just in general to come to DU, growing up watching them, watching them win the back-to-back championships (in 2004 and 2005). It’s a huge honor. I’m very blessed to have it.” Arnold, a 6-foot-1, 215-pound junior, isn’t a high-profile player who draws the immediate attention of opponents. He played last season on DU’s “Mash Line” and his gritty, physical play provided valuable contributions for the Pioneers that didn’t show up in statistics. In 76 games with DU over the past two seasons, Arnold has three goals and 11 points but now will take on an additional role as team captain. “I’ve been a captain before so I’m comfortable in the role,” said Arnold. “I was really, really happy I could get it this year.” Arnold has watched and tried to follow the example of several National Hockey League captains. “Obviously Joe Sakic growing up when the Avs were on their great run for those years,” said Arnold. “He really wasn’t the kind of player that I am but I always looked up to him. Today, I love Dustin Brown of the L.A. Kings. He plays a very physical style and he’s always so

He’s very intense with his teammates but he’s also always there for them and has their back. “Back in the day, I never got to see him play because I was too young but I watched a ton on highlights of Wendel Clark. He is the kind of the guy I love to watch in highlights and I try to play like he did. And Ray Bourque when he was here. That was really an emotional experience when he won his first Cup with the Avs.” Clark was a captain for the Toronto Maple Leafs from 1991-94 and Bourque served as the Boston Bruins captain for 21 seasons before finishing his career with Colorado. Arnold played three years of high school hockey for Arapahoe before leaving for Green Bay his senior year to play for the Gamblers Tier I team in the United States Hockey League. He played three seasons for the Gam-
blers before coming to DU. “For the most part these days you have to leave home and go play someplace else if you’re not fortunate enough to have a junior league team in your hometown,” explained Arnold. “I hated to leave my senior year. It was a tough decision, but I wanted to pursue the hockey dream. “I can’t even put into words the experience I had in Green Bay. We won two national championships. I was the captain of the second one and it was insane. The year we didn’t win we made it to the finals and lost to Montgomery’s team in the championship.” Arnold was one of eight Colorado players on the DU roster last season. “I kind grew up in the era of hockey really growing in Colorado,” he added. “It’s been awesome to see. Now we have the Thunderbirds and Rampage, two elite AAA programs.
When I was at Arapahoe we won state championships and we had a great team. We had 13 AAA kids on our team. Hockey has really grown. It’s not at a level where other states are but it has excelled.” Arnold played for the Thunderbirds before moving on to the Gamblers and to DU. “Grant embodies what a hockey player is all about,” said former Pioneer player and Thunderbirds coach Angelo Ricci. “He plays with great energy, passion and has a high compete level. “His teammates feed off his attitude and work ethic which are certainly contagious throughout the locker room. I believe DU may have some players with more skill but I am not sure if they have any with more heart than Grant.”
League clash: Continental crushes Centennial ThunderRidge rolls to 6-0 mark in summer hoops showdown By Jim Benton
jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com It is only summer and high school basketball players and teams are polishing their skills for next season. Still, it seemed strange to watch Highlands Ranch play without a big man in the pivot. Zach Braxton, the dominating 6-foot-9 center who was the 2013-14 Continental League Player of the Year, has graduated and Highlands Ranch will be competing next season with 6-4 front line players. “We don’t have a big guy but still we’re not bad,” said Highlands Ranch coach Bob Caton. “We go 6-4, 6-4. So we won’t be small but it’s not like having Zach.” Caton was pleased with what he’s saw from his team in the Continental-Centennial Challenge tournament held June 19-21 at Heritage High School. The Falcons have three regulars back from last season in Ryley Steward, Keith Coleman and Patrick Sullivan. “We’re trying to see what our team makeup is going to be like next year and then work to their strengths and try to improve on their weaknesses,” said Caton. “We’ve worked a little bit on different concepts, just getting the players to kind of know each other.” ThunderRidge had only one senior on last season’s team and the Grizzlies were the lone unbeaten team in the Continental-Centennial Challenge, winning all six games. “We’ve done well this summer,” admitted ThunderRidge coach Joe Ortiz. “At Metro we were 5-1, at CU we went 6-0 and then here we went 6-0. We are 5-1 in

the East League. We’ve lost to East and we lost to Eaglecrest. Those are our only two losses. We’ve had some good wins. We’re doing well but it’s summer. “Teams are missing people, sometimes there are different things going on and you are playing more than you normally play. Most of the time we have 10 or 11 kids. So you take it with a grain of salt but we’re pleased. The kids are finding different ways to win.” Highlands Ranch guard Ryley Stewart, left, looks for a way around a Cherry Creek defender during the ContinentalOrtiz was quick to point out the ad- Centennial Challenge basketball tournament at Heritage High School.

Eagles get 7-on-7 win New coach gets first victory as he gets to know team By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Heritage’s new football coach, Tyler Knoblock, guided the Eagles to their first win against another team under his direction on June 19 as they edged Littleton 1710 in the Denver Broncos 7-on-7 tournament. “This is our first time before anyone other than own fans and going against another team,” the coach said. “Our kids are still learning our system and that is coming along. We have a ways to go but the kids love to work, the attitude is great and we bring back a lot of experience … it is a work in progress.” Heritage hired Knoblock in February to fill the vacancy created when the school didn’t renew the contract of longtime football coach Mike Griebel. The new coach comes to Heritage from Bishop McGuiness High School in Okla-
homa City, where he served as offensive coordinator. Knoblock said he elected not to scrimmage another team during the two-week summer contact camp. “We practiced hard and did a couple inter-squad scrimmages during the camp,” he said. “We decided to keep the scrimmage in house because that way we get to evaluate the performance of 22 players on film during the scrimmage instead of the performance of 11 of our guys against another team.” He said the attitude of the players has been great. “We have put them through some tough drills and asked them to work hard,” he said. “They have done what we asked and I haven’t heard anyone complain about all the hard work because we want to be ready when the season starts.” Knoblock said the turnout has been good. He said almost all the underclassmen on last year’s roster have returned plus he had quite a few freshmen out for the team. “We bring back a lot of guys with varsity experience that will help us this season,” he said. “We just ask them to bring the energy,
Tyler Knoblock, Heritage’s new head football coach, talks to his players after their 7-on-7 win over Littleton in the June 19 Bronco tournament. The coach said the summer sessions are helping him to learn about his players and his players to get to know him and prepare for the coming season. Photo by Tom Munds work to get better each day and, by the time the books close, we’ll be in a good place.” He said it appears one of the team strengths in the fall will be his defense that will be anchored by seven returning starters. On offense, he said he and his assistants
were evaluating players for positions including quarterback. “Right now, we have three players we are rotating in and out so we can get a good look at them,” he said. “It is a cloudy situation, a wide-open contest for the position and too close to make a call as yet.”
sports roundup Creek’s Tierney resigns
Flag football coming
Macdonald repeats
Cherry Creek girls lacrosse coach Brianne Tierney has resigned to pursue possible college coaching opportunities. Tierney, daughter of University of Denver men’s lacrosse coach Bill Tierney, led the Bruins to the state title in her initial season as Creek coach in 2013 and her team finished second last season giving her a 28-9 two-year coaching record. Creek will be seeking its third girls lacrosse coach since 2009 but it should be an attractive position since the Bruins have played in every state title game since the sport was sanctioned 16 years ago and has captured 10 state titles along the way.
Grid Iron, an NFL-approved youth flag football league, will open play this September at Mountain Range Middle School in Highlands Ranch. The eight-week season kicks off Sept. 13 and includes a Super Bowl tournament. There are plans to develop additional leagues in Douglas, Arapahoe and Jefferson counties over the next few years. Grid Iron Flag Football is for boys and girls ages 5-14 and includes all-girls leagues. For information contact norm@gridironflag.com or visit the website at www. gridironflag.com.
Ross Macdonald of the Country Club of Castle Pines captured the Colorado Golf Association Junior Stroke Play title for the second consecutive year. He is the first player to repeat since Scott Peterson won three straight championships from 1987 through 1989. Macdonald tied his Valor Christian High School teammate Coby Welch of The Links Golf Course for medalist honors with an even-par 210 total after three rounds at Indian Tree Golf Course in Arvada. Macdonald captured the title June 20 on the second playoff hole with a 5-foot par putt. Ashley Tait of Littleton, the daughter of Raccoon Creek head golf pro Pat Tait,
finished second June 15 in the DecaturForsyth Classic of the LPGA Symnetra Tour. Tait tied for first with Madison Pressel at 210 but lost on the first playoff hole. She earned $9,043 and has made $12,594 in 12 tourneys this season.
Manhart on preseason list Nebraska-Kearney senior left tackle Cole Manhart, a 6-foot-6, 300-pound graduate of ThunderRidge High School, has been named a first-team preseason All-American by both the Sporting News and Lindy’s. Manhart, who is drawing interest from NFL teams, was selected to multiple AllAmerican teams last fall.

As Kaui Hart Hemmings’ carefully crafted new novel opens, Sarah St. John is trying to re-enter the world she knows after suffering the loss of her beloved 20-something son, Cully, to an avalanche. She had raised him as a single mother and is finding mixed support from others in her loss. “The Possibilities” is set in Breckenridge, a seemingly idyllic ski town, where Hawaiiborn Hemmings once lived. Tragedy is an unexpected visitor here. The Colorado College graduate’s descriptions of Rocky Mountains scenery and lifestyle almost make the book a movie-in-waiting, and Hemmings, who also wrote “The Hemmings Descendants” (made into an Oscarwinning film) about another family’s experience with grief, has an early film commitment. The author has created a cast of ski-town characters, starting with Sarah, a native, as commentator on the light, sale-oriented TV commentary piped into hotels. A single mother, Sarah lives with her widowed father, who was an original ski-area founder and now deals with his grief over the loss of a grandson by going on buying sprees from TV shopping networks. The relationship between father and daughter is a nice feature of this book. Neither depiction is at all cliche. Sarah’s best friend, Suzanne, is going through a messy divorce, but helps Sarah cope with her need to move on in her life. While Suzanne’s daughter at Colorado College holds a memorial event for Cully, the young man’s charming but unreliable father, Billy, reappears and perhaps has matured. A young girl named Kit shows up on Sarah’s doorstep, wanting to shovel snow, she says. But she brings a secret — additional insights about Cully and emotional complexities for Sarah and others in her life. The novel proceeds mainly through dialogue, which is consistently engaging and at times bitterly funny, as Hemmings’ characters struggle to heal. Hemmings was born and raised in Hawaii, has degrees from Colorado College and Sarah Lawrence, and was a Stegner Fellow at Stanford University. She lives in Hawaii and is a young writer we will want to watch as she develops a body of work exploring the many facets of the human condition through her fine command of language. “The Possibilities” was published May 13 by Simon and Schuster in hardcover. It is listed at $25 and should be available at libraries and bookstores.

UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO IS NOW OFFERING CLASSES IN THE WILDLIFE EXPERIENCE College courses don’t just teach, they empower. If you’ve been thinking about continuing your education, we’re about to make it a lot easier. Starting this fall, the University of Colorado will be offering select classes just east of Lincoln and I-25 in the areas of business, education, computer science, public health and nursing. Because we believe it’s the curriculum that should be challenging, not the commute.
