dollars, federal ad regional grants, runs primarily along Arapahoe Road and Dry Creek. City officials think the fiber optic lines could also be used in partnership with private broadband service providers to deliver access to advanced telecommunications and Internet services. However, Senate Bill 05-152 prohibits local governments from directly or indirectly providing telecom services to their residents or businesses. This law also prevents the city from partnering with private service providers to use Centennial’s existing fiber optic network.

Showing off

The law does permit the city to take the issue to voters, and that’s what Noon said may happen on this year’s November ballot. City spokesperson Allison Wittern confirmed that city council is exploring putting the issue on the ballot during the upcoming regular election. “The opportunity this gives to our residents and businesses is extraordinary,” said District 3 Councilmember Ken Lucas.

Bond denied for suspect in slaying Judge says Kuroki case should go to trial By Deborah Grigsby

Voters may face $80 million decision School board leans toward putting bond issue on ballot By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com The Littleton Public Schools Board of Education appears poised to place an $80 million bond issue on the November ballot. “You guys have definitely proven to me the need,” board member Sue Chandler told members of the financial advisory committee during last week’s school board study session. The committee recommends moving forward rather than waiting until 2014. “The facts themselves and the condition of the buildings are not going to change,” said Jim Woods, the district’s outreach coordinator. Supertintendent Scott Murphy has said the time is right to take advantage of low interest rates for what amounts to refinancing a mortgage — not a tax increase, he stresses. If voters pass the proposed measure, it will keep the amount of property tax they pay at about a total of 57 mills. If not, it will drop to about 55.5 mills, a difference of about $1 a

month for each $100,000 of the actual value of the property. The last time LPS went to the voters was in 2010, when they passed a $12 million mill-levy override, or property-tax increase. That money has maintained the district’s current level of service, despite decreases in state and federal funding. Scott Myers, LPS chief financial officer, said that at about Murphy 8.5 mills, Littleton is on the high end compared to districts around the state, but they’re all in about the same range. Bond revenue can legally only be used for capital improvements like building maintenance and infrastructure. The district estimates the actual need at about $102 million, but, as board member Renee Howell noted, asking for more than $80 million would have raised rather than maintained taxes. “It’s a pattern that has worked in the past,” she said. “It’s not like we’re trying to overburden someone.” The district formed a citizens committee

to prioritize the needs, and members say the $80 million will fund absolute needs, not wishes. “We do have significant deficiencies that do require attention, and the Runyon roof, I think, is the poster child,” said Diane Doney LPS chief operating officer. Murphy stresses that a proposed statewide $1.1 billion tax increase for education — planned to be on the ballot this fall — has absolutely nothing to do with this local question, and that it does nothing to address capital improvements. Board members have wondered whether that will confuse voters or lessen the chances that the LPS measure will pass. “I would like to think that people in our district see our district totally differently than they see the state,” said board president Bob Colwell. Vicki Mattox, managing director of Stifel Public Finance, said waiting until 2014 could cost the district $20 million if interest rates rise as projected, and construction costs could go up. “People have shown their ability to pick and choose and to vote their values,” said. “If you spent another year working on them, I’m not sure they’d learn a whole lot more.”

An Arapahoe County judge says there is sufficient evidence to try the man accused of the first-degree murder of his 81-year-old mother. Behind large thick glasses, David Wayne Kuroki, of Littleton, sat motionless as Judge Elizabeth Beebe-Volz denied bail for the 53-year-old man suspected of killing his ailing mother, Mae Kuroki, inside her Centennial home. Defense attorneys picked at details and witness qualifications, calling the case nothing more than “whole-cloth speculation.” According to affida- Kuroki vits, Kuroki, 53, called his brother Gary Kuroki and a cousin, Dean Iwasaki, on April 2 and admitted he had killed his mother and that he was sorry. Arapahoe County Investigator Johnnie Turnidge, who testified during Kuroki’s Aug. 8 pre-trial hearing, said the elder Kuroki’s body was found in her bed under a blanket with a bloodstained pillow over her face. Crime scene photos show a heavy “brick-like” doorstop next to the elderly woman’s head and multiple stab wounds of varying depth to her torso. Turnidge, who attended Kuroki’s autopsy, testified the victim had a 4-inch skull fracture, defensive wounds on both hands, and 11 stab wounds, one of which penetrated the liver. Shortly after Mae Kuroki’s body was found, a passerby later reported a man lying next to a bush in a semi-fetal position near a golf course south of C-470. Douglas County Sheriff’s deputies responded, along with medical personnel, and found the younger Kuroki, soaked in blood. Deputy John Lynch of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office said Kuroki was weak and his hands were covered in blood. When asked what his name was, Kuroki, according to Lynch, said, “Avery Kuroki. I just killed my mother.” Kuroki was transported from the scene to a local hospital for treatment and booked into the Arapahoe County Jail on April 12. His next court date is Aug. 21.

Pickleball, the fastest growing sport in America, may be coming to South Suburban’s Buck Recreation Center, if there’s enough interest. South Suburban will host an informational meeting about pickleball on Aug. 22 at 7 p.m. at Buck Recreation Center, 2004 W. Powers Ave., Littleton. A hands-on demonstration in the gymnasium will follow the meeting. Pickleball is similar to tennis and ping-pong, and is a bit like badminton. It’s played on a surface smaller than a tennis court with a Wiffle ball and paddle, and is suitable for all ages and abilities. For more information about the upcoming meeting, call 303-730-4607.

Father of two seeks seat on LPS board Consultant emphasizes technology, alternatives By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Plenty of stay-at-home moms have served on the Littleton Public Schools Board of Education, but now a stay-athome dad is ready to step up. At least that’s what Centennial resident Dallas Jones was until the younger of his two daughters graduated from Arapahoe High School last spring. “I’ve been happy with the way I’ve lived my life and the choices I’ve made,” he said. “Being a stay-at-home dad 14 years ago was not so popular. But good, bad or indifferent, the choices I’ve made have been mine. That’s what I want for Littleton Public Schools kids — a chance to control their own lives.”

Jones’ background is in business and computer science. He has a master’s degree in management and works as a financial-systems consultant. “We’re moving into a world that is going to be more and more data driven,” he said. “One of the things I’m excited to do on the board is to push us in that direction.” Jones is excited about the possibilities of alternate forms of delivering Jones curriculum, and puts forth Khan Academy as an example. It’s a free online resource that lets anyone, anywhere take classes, and the Los Altos School District in California is piloting it. “That’s where I would like to go as well,” said Jones. “Littleton has always been on the forefront of innovation, so it makes

sense to go in that direction. … We’ve got to be open to new ideas, and it’s interesting, because I think schools are about the last institution to embrace technology.” Khan lets students study at their own pace but requires an absolute level of proficiency before allowing them to advance. In other words, there is only one passing grade instead of only one failing grade, as in traditional schools. “The concept is changing education, because now we punish people for making mistakes and we allow them to be mediocre and move on,” he said. Jones has been on the district’s financial advisory committee, among others. But he considers himself an outsider, especially now that his girls have graduated. While he thinks it’s great so many LPS grads go on to college, as his did, he notes that’s not everyone’s path. “Let’s make students aware of what’s possible after high school,” he said. “Lots

are college-driven, and that’s the majority, but it’s certainly not the only possibility. Whether it’s the military, business, trade school — I think we can do a better job of spelling that out and showing the way there,” he said. To that end, he would place a strong emphasis on customer service. “We do a pretty good job in customer service, but where we can improve is to push the idea of education ownership earlier,” he said. Like the other four candidates, Jones hopes the current board decides to place a bond issue on the November ballot to strengthen the physical and technological infrastructure that makes learning possible. “We love having kids, and we want to make the most out of every child’s future,” he said. “And more importantly, we want to teach them to make the most out of their own future.”

Marathon plan reaches finish line with victory

ority, bility.Littleton OKs mixed-use radeproject near Centennial border r job wayBy Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com

rong

While history has shown that one should omernever presume any plan is a done deal, the is tomixed-use Littleton Village proposal for the ear-old Marathon property does seem to be wrapped up for now. ones Littleton City Council unanimously applaceproved a zoning change on Aug. 6 that alot tolows Watt Investment Partners to move forgicalward with the purchase and development of pos-the 77-acre site at Broadway and Dry Creek Road, near the Centennial border. It’s basint tocally the same plan approved after a subure,”stantial amount of public debate in 2006, nt towhich went into suspended animation after their

the economy crashed. “We went through a lot of brain damage in 2006,” recalled Councilor Jim Taylor. But then Watt entered the picture late last year. Its team wanted to build basically the same community, but needed council’s approval to change the layout somewhat to better accommodate retail. Council’s approval paves the way for 250,000 square feet of commercial property and up to 900 residential units. The west side will be oriented toward Broadway, with boutique shops in front, and medium-size boxes — like Kohl’s or a grocery store — behind. In the middle are a park and two apartment buildings, limited to no more than four stories. Single-family homes will fill the east side, backing up to the existing residential neighborhood. Even Littleton resident Paul Bingham, who fought the plan in 2006 and has recent-

ly been actively working against proposed multifamily projects around town, said he now supports Watt’s vision. “It isn’t perfect, but it is better, and we can live with it and support it,” he wrote in comments to council. “And the point I’m trying to make is that when we people protest something, and the city council listens, often it works out for a good, rational solution.” Geoff Lawton, vice president of operations at Littleton Adventist Hospital, said the project not only will create space for proximate health-related businesses, it will provide housing opportunities for the hospital’s 1,200 employees and 1,300 affiliated doctors. “It will allow them to serve the needs of our community and live in our community, as well,” he said, noting that about 30 percent of them now commute from outside

Littleton’s borders. Of course, not everybody is thrilled. Littleton resident and former city council member Tom Kristopeit wants more specifics, which city staff says will be worked out later. “I think you should wait for a project that you are really proud of and that you know what you’re getting, because if you approve this, I think you’re getting a pig in a poke,” he told council. Mayor Debbie Brinkman urged Watt representatives to take extra care with the site. Close to the highest elevation in town with sweeping views of the mountains, it’s the last prime piece of developable land save the acreage south of Aspen Grove on Santa Fe Drive. “If it looks like everybody else that’s out there, then it’s not going to be special,” she said. “And we really need it to be special, because it’s our last shot.”

Centennial Airport gets $5.8 million rehab grant FAA picks up tab for runway repair and noise program By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com In light of some bumps this summer with that whole close-the-control tower scare, things are likely to get much smoother at Centennial Airport, especially on one of its three runways. The Federal Aviation Administration recently awarded a $5.8 million grant to the Arapahoe County Public Airport Authority for what it calls airport development and

noise program implementation. Airport Executive Director Robert Olislagers calls it runway replacement. “Our grant will allow us to reconstruct the crosswind runway, starting the first week in September,” said Olislagers who hopes to have the project done in approximately 60 days. Notices sent to local pilots state all of the existing pavement be removed and replaced with new asphalt. The crosswind runway, also known as Runway 10/20, referring to its compass direction, is 75 feet wide and 4,800 feet long, and according to Olislagers, while it is still safe, is in need of complete reconstruction.

“Of course, I’m never gonna argue with anyone about a brand new runway,” said Nate Duehr, a pilot who has a plane based in Centennial. “The crosswind runway is really helpful and keeping the smaller aircraft out of the way of the bigger business jets who burn far more fuel waiting to take off. In the long term, I think it is a great investment for the airport, if for nothing more than alleviating traffic backups.” Funding within the grant will also help implement an aircraft noise monitoring system to help pinpoint trouble spots around the immediate airport area. The news comes on the heels of a sum-

mertime struggle between Centennial and the FAA after federal sequestration threatened to close overnight control tower operations. Olislagers pleaded Centennial’s case to the feds citing potential safety issues and eventually the FAA reconsidered it decision on Centennial, as well as many other towers on its closure list. Funding for the runway rehab project comes from the FAA’s Airport Improvement Program, which is entirely self-funded through the excise taxes charged on aviation and jet fuel. No local tax dollars will be used for this project.

Bennet tours immigrant center ‘Gang of Eight’ used Littleton program as a national model By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colorado, stopped by Littleton’s Bemis Public Library, home of the Littleton Immigrtant Resource Center, on Aug. 6. Bennet and the so-called “Gang of Eight” used the center as a model for part of the immigration-reform bill that passed the Senate in June. “This is a great example of how to do it right,” said Bennet. He met with volunteers, students, mentors and lots of people who keep the program ticking. One of those was Ikbal Maardni, a Syrian woman who came to Colorado in 2004. She earned citizenship in 2012 with help from LIRC and still works with its volunteers to improve her English. She enjoyed the library setting so much that she volunteered there for seven years and became a paid employee two years ago. Bennet asked her how she ended up in Littleton. “I love everything,” she said. “The weather, trees, everything is green — it’s not in my country. And the people are very nice, especially the people who work here.” Mayor Debbie Brinkman said LIRC staff has worked very hard to help Maardni and

other newcomers feel at home. “Welcoming them and assisting them in their assimilation makes a lot more sense than making them feel isolated,” she said. “We need to integrate people into our country,” agreed Bennet. “We are a nation of immigrants, and a nation that subscribes to the rule of law.” Bennet’s bill seeks to provide upward of $100 million in federal support for local programs such as LIRC. They’ll be essential to ensuring the success of other aspects of the law, he said, like the requirement to learn English. “You can require it, but if you don’t actually have programs in place to teach English, you’re not going to succeed,” said Bennet. Tim Nimz, library director, said such national attention on LIRC is a great boon as it seeks to sustain itself, especially as a service not normally offered by municipalities. “That’s, I think, a real compliment to what’s happening with the program and the priorities of the community,” he said. LIRC grew out of work done during the 2004 Littleton Community Retreat, which brings together citizens to brainstorm topics of interest and emerge with a common purpose. The theme that year was “Welcoming and Involving New Americans.” “I became concerned that if we didn’t reach out to new people, we could end up as a divided, we/they community,” said Susan Thornton, an LCR organizer.

Marijuana ban, Centennial’s sense of identity top list By Deborah Grigsby

dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com Centennial Mayor Cathy Noon kicked off her 2014 re-election campaign at an Aug. 6 kick-off rally at the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce with a vow to ban retail and commercial marijuana establishments in the city. Although the city currently has a moratorium on retail marijuana operations, the city will have to come to a more permanent solution early next year. “I’ve spoken with city council and several members of the community, and I just don’t think this is something we want in our city,” Noon told a handful of supporters, including Greenwood Village Mayor Ron Rakowsky and Englewood Mayor Randy Penn. “So if you’re looking at starting a grow operation or something, I’m probably not the best mayor for you.” Helping senior citizens also tops Noon’s list of priorities. With more than 30 percent of the population exceeding 50 years of age, Noon said she would ensure the city thrives by planning appropriately for the coming demographic changes. Noon, who is very active with the city’s 12-member Senior Commission, emphasized the importance of keeping the elderly active within the community.

“Isolation is the number one source of decline in our seniors,” said Noon. “Programs like Meals on Wheels are not so much about the meals as they are about the social aspect.” When it comes to transportation, Noon went on to highlight many of the city’s accomplishments over the past year, including its costsaving efforts to plow more roads and to seek innovative ways to finance road construction, particularly for high-traffic areas such as I-25 and Arapahoe Road, and C-470. Noon Along with community preparedness, fiscal responsibility and a healthy tax base that’s attractive to new businesses, Noon said the city’s budding sense of identity is important. “A few years ago, many people didn’t know where they lived,” Noon joked. “But last year, although I can’t take credit for it, Missy Franklin helped put Centennial on the map.” Rakowsky endorsed Noon saying there is no better face for the City of Centennial and “you owe it to the city’s future, not just its present, to lay a strong foundation.” To date, Noon has one challenger, former legal secretary and political newcomer Monica Bromley. “I am looking forward to doing this for another four years,” Noon said, “that is, if you’ll have me.”

opinions / yours and ours

Circumstances change, but character shouldn’t Stuff happens, right? I mean, when we least expect change, it happens. Sometimes we are caught off-guard by awesome and wonderfully unexpected good news. And when that does happen, we never really have to worry about how we respond or react because in most cases we are smiling and enjoying the moment. And then there are those other times, when we least expect it, that our world gets turned upside-down in a flash. Have you ever been there, cruising along based on plans, commitments and expectations, and then all of sudden … WHAM … right between the eyes we get hit with a curve ball? Stuff happens, and it happens to all of us at some time or another. The difference is how we actually respond to the immediate shift in our course. Our character can be found in how we respond when faced with challenges or changes, especially when they come upon us out of the blue. If you have ever been faced with a sudden change or shift,

or maybe even if you are experiencing it right now, I want to share a simple philosophy with you that may help. I call this the “Cadence of Change,” and the “cadence” acronym stands for: Communication goes both ways, and in times of change we need to make sure we have expressed ourselves clearly and that we understand what is being shared; miscommunication often makes change worse. Authority means we have to stay in control; we are in charge of how we respond or

differently and see things through objective and productive eyes, instead of being anchored to the past. Character means that whatever happens, we handle ourselves in a respectful way, never yielding or compromising who we are to the circumstances that surround us as the craziness of change happens. Excellence — In times of change and growth, the watchword should be excellence. If we strive for perfection we will often miss the mark, but when we pursue excellence we will impact change, truly impact change for the better. How is your cadence when it comes to change? The world is constantly changing, and I would love to hear all about how you handle it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when your “Cadence of Change” improves, it will really be a better than good week.

What would improve your neighborhood?

On a weekend day at the Douglas County Fairgrounds in the leadup to this year’s fair, Colorado Community Media asked visitors: What’s the one thing that could really improve the neighborhood you live in?

“I wish they could up the number of chickens you could have.” — Jodie Nicholls, Littleton

“I wish people would keep their dogs on their property.” — Lisa Mycke, Sedalia

“I can’t think of anything.” — Jameson Benson, Castle Pines North

“Relaxation on the number of chickens you can have.” — Heber Lemmon, Roxborough

Hardball topics are mostly out of my league I have written some hardball columns, but invariably I throw them away. I have written about guns, politicians, Al Sharpton, abortion, same-sex marriages, and even about rodeos, but I am never satisfied afterward. Maybe it’s because I know there is nothing I can say that will make any difference. I might affect a handful of readers, but everyone else has made up their mind, or isn’t listening. When I heard that part of the state wanted to leave the state, I realized that I don’t really know Colorado. I know I live in a very sophisticated county. I now know that there are many very unsophisticated counties, and that the locals are perfectly happy with that, living partly in the 19th century. And they’re not perfectly happy with the rest of us. I don’t think they have our disparity in New Hampshire. The governor can give one-size-fits-all speeches. Hickenlooper has to be mindful of what goes on in Denver and Boulder, and Rico and Brush too. There’s another reason why I have thrown away hardball columns. Like I said, I am never satisfied afterward, and there’s more to it than that. I don’t feel good. I think I am intelligent and objective, but when I see what others believe and do, I grind my teeth and feel it’s best to keep some things to myself, and leave those topics to commentators who can sleep at night after what they have expressed during the day. I acknowledge that most of the time I am a softball writer. And half of the time,

react. If we allow other people or circumstances to dictate how the changes surrounding us impact our demeanor, we will never be in a position to maintain control. Decisions or lack of decisions often leave us paralyzed, and instead of taking action, we leave the decisions to others and again find ourselves being directed or driven by the motives of someone else. In times of change, it is critical to be in control of our own decisions. Expectations properly set are expectations that have a better chance of being realized. Many times our emotions and subsequent actions or reactions stem from misleading ourselves from the beginning. Stretching ourselves through dreams and goals are awesome, and realistic expectations are the foundation that ground us during times of change. New Paradigm — The definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over and expecting different results. All of us should be open and willing to think

On July 1 of this year, Congress’ partisan gridlock and inability to come together for the sake of the American people was on full display when it allowed the rates for subsidized Stafford loans for college students to double from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent without any legislative remedy. This comes at a time when tuition rates are rising uncontrollably. In fact, over the last 10 years tuition rates have far outpaced inflation. During that time the economy has experienced an average inflation rate of 2.5 percent while the average annual tuition increase at a four-year public university has been double that at 5.2 percent. College seniors today are graduating with an average student loan of $27,000. On May 23, I supported H.R. 1911, the Bipartisan Student Loan Certainty Act of 2013, when it was passed in the House. H.R. 1911 added stability to educational loans in a fiscally responsible way by fixing the rate to the 10-year Treasury note. However, once the bill passed the House and was sent over to the Senate, certain senators on the other side of the aisle made unreasonable demands that not only went contrary to the president’s stated objectives, but were fiscally irresponsible. After months of partisan wrangling within the Senate, last week the House of Representatives passed, with my support, the Senate amendment to H.R. 1911. I am pleased the Senate agreed with our approach that will give students the clarity and security they need while balancing

I am up to no great good, writing about wordplay and coffee babies. If you drink Frappuccinos you are a coffee baby. There is one topic that I write about frequently that isn’t softball, and whenever I do, that’s when I receive the most responses. If I were to write that I was for or against guns, I would hear from both sides. You love them or you hate them. But no one — with very disturbing exceptions — doesn’t like animals, and especially our pets. I don’t know the first thing about moose, but I admire them. I always want to know the outcome of a bear that has wandered into town. I wrote about the Running of the Bulls, and my mailbox was full. That was a tough one to write, because it’s almost impossible to write anything worth reading when you are so angry you begin to preach, and I am against preaching, even by preachers. Whenever I write about my dog, Smitty, I get lots of emails from readers who have

the duty of Congress to be good stewards of taxpayer money. The final legislation, supported by the majority of the House and Senate, moves all new student loans (except Perkins loans) to a market-based interest rate while allowing interest rates to be reset once a year. Interest rates would be set using the following formulas: Undergraduate Stafford Loans (both subsidized and unsubsidized) will be based on the 10-year Treasury note (which on August 1 was 2.74 percent) plus 2.05 percent, capped at 8.25 percent. Graduate unsubsidized Stafford loans will be based on the 10-year Treasury note plus 3.6 percent, capped at 9.5 percent, and PLUS loans (both parent and graduate student) will be based on 10-year Treasury note plus 4.6 percent, capped at 10.5 percent. These are commonsense formulas will provide students with affordable interest rates while maintaining the financial integrity of Coffman continues on Page 9

LPS opens doors with focus on tech STEM fields are seen as building blocks for future By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com From stems grow beautiful blossoms, and Littleton Public Schools will continue to nurture theirs during the 2013-2014 school year, which starts Aug. 19. In this case, the stems are STEM, the buzz acronym for science, technology, engineering and math. These, say educators, are the bases for the jobs of the future. “We’ve been focusing on it for a very long time,” said Diane Leiker, LPS director of communications. “We think STEM is important enough that we focus it on every school.” The students seem excited about it, as well. So much so that the first free Engineer-

the federal student loan structure. As I alluded to earlier, this plan is similar to one supported by the president in his budget proposal. He agrees with the House that it is imperative Congress remove itself from the annual debate on interest rates so students can focus on getting an education rather than worrying about politicians in Washington, D.C. I hope President Obama acts quickly and approves the proposal that aids our students struggling in this economy. Congress has been plagued with gridlock, so I am very pleased that Republicans and Democrats were able to come together to do something good for students while at the same time securing our future eco-

ing Exploration Workshop, open to all LPS high-schoolers, is full — even though it’s on a Saturday morning. Not to worry, there are eight more scheduled through November. Instructors for the workshop come from local offices of companies like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, the University of Colorado, Raytheon and United Launch Alliance. “We have a lot of parents and community members who have worked in engineering fields during the course of their career and have chosen to live in this area,” said Leiker. “Maybe not every school district has the opportunity to offer this, but we do because of our community. We just have some natural ties.” Also new this year, though not until second semester, is an introduction to computer science class. It’s taught at Littleton High School but open to any LPS high-schooler. The district has never offered a programming class before, and administrators hope

nomic growth. However, we need to do more. When we subsidize student loan interest rates, we are investing in our future by sending highly trained and productive citizens out into the workforce and entrusting them with the levers of our economy. If we want to ensure a vibrant economic future, I hope that Republicans and Democrats can come together with the same spirit of bipartisanship that successfully addressed the loan rates and finally tackle the other national problems like debt, deficits, as well as entitlement and tax reform in the same cooperative manner. Republican Mike Coffman is the U.S. Representative for Colorado’s 6th District. He is a Marine Corps combat veteran and has a combined 21 years of military experience between the Army, the Army Reserve, the Marine Corps and the Marine Corps Reserve.

to launch it into an entire sequence leading to AP computer science. To keep the momentum going, the LPS Foundation recently earned a $500,000 matching grant to create and enhance even more STEM projects. “We are very excited about this incredible opportunity to partner with LPS to help further advance the STEM focus in our schools,” said Mary McGlone, LPSF president, in a statement. “Our goal is to turn this gift into $1 million. We will be asking the community, `Where else can you get such a great return on your investment?’” Last year, district schools took home a bevy of awards from both the state and national technology competitions, and Littleton High School was the state champion for the 11th time. “Today’s students will create tomorrow’s careers and the technology that drives them,” reads the LPS Back to School Guide.

One reader was somehow in the right place when a middle-aged dog was left on a golf course in the middle of the night in another state. She was shy and emaciated and weak.

Young Voices of Colorado getting permanent location By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com After 23 years, and 10 different homes, Young Voices of Colorado will soon move into a permanent space of its own. Founder and artistic director Jena Dickey of Littleton spoke about her long search. The youth choir organization has been renting space from churches, but the group has grown to a point where it is too big and wants to use the rented space for too many hours for a church arrangement to be satisfactory, she says. At first, she thought they could rent a larger commercial space, but the code requirements involved to accommodate 200 children — classified as an educational use — plus the need for high ceilings, made that plan impractical. “Even Pavarotti couldn’t sing with a low acoustic tile ceiling.” And adequate restrooms were also an issue. It meant gutting a space and shaping it to specific needs. After much searching, they found a 4,400-square-foot space in an office park development at 99 Inverness Drive East, #150. It’s still in Arapahoe County and locat-

ed near Interstate 25 for south metro area students as well as those who come from a distance. (Green Mountain, Westminster, Strasburg, Larkspur …) Closing was May 6 and construction is underway on what was once a welding school. Dickey very much hopes to be in by Labor Day. The group made a substantial down payment and arranged a loan for the balance. Dickey says she had hoped to do the necessary work for about $350,000, but with bathroom, ADA and fire issues, it will be closer to $500,000 when completed. (Supporters can buy a square foot of space for $100 — “and we may sell piano keys too,” Dickey said.) There will be a 50-foot-by-30-foot choral room plus a smaller 700-square-foot choral space. Three offices, reception space, copy room, storage, two bathrooms and a break room are included, designed by architect Earl Anderson. Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman, who is an interior designer by trade, has been advising on decorating and as we write, Dickey carries a car trunk filled with the chosen color swatches, carpet, tile, flooring samples, cabinet doors and more. The large choir room will have a wall painted in YVA’s signature purple, the smaller one will have a red wall, and offices will have green, while the carpet reflects all three, plus neutral tones. In the meantime, auditions for younger children were finalized recently and Dick-

ey is excited to contemplate a return to her first love: music education. “We hope to develop world citizens,” she says, proud of the accomplishments of her graduates, who have learned focus and discipline through music. The choirs are called Treble Makers (second- to fourth-graders); Cantus; Signature; VoiceMale (boys with changed or changing voices); and Concert Choir. They give two concerts each year at the University of Denver’s Newman Center and collaborate with other musical organizations in additional performances, such as Littleton Symphony and Littleton Chorale. In the summer, YVC hosts other children’s choruses from across the country in the “Sing a Mile High Festival,” where kids work with a team of musical educators and present a concert where they sing separately and jointly. The staff members for the 501(c)(3) organization include Dickey, Chrys Harris, Margie Camp, Paul Smith, accompanists Jane MacQueen and Gretchen Timmer, Anna Larsen and Teddi Harring. Kathryn Ake is president of the board of directors. Dickey likes to share a quote from great conductor/composer Leonard Bernstein: “It will be the artists, the feelers and thinkers who will ultimately save us — those who can articulate, educate, defy, insist and shout the biggest of dreams.” Information about Young Voices of Colorado is found at: youngvoices.org, 303797-7464.

`Steel Magnolias’ on stage at hotel By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “Steel Magnolias” a tale of strong Southern women in the fictional town of Chiquapin, La., in the 1980s, was originally written as a short story by Robert Harling, who was grieving the death of a sister. The play came next. (OffBroadway in 1987, movie in 1989, Broadway in 2005, with Dolly Parton in the Truvy role). Cast with strong characters, it has established a place as a fa-

vorite for local theater groups, has played around the world and is the 2013 selection for the annual summer fundraiser for Senior Housing Options, a nonprofit that provides housing for about 500 adults in Colorado. It is presented through Aug. 24 in the lobby at the historic Barth Hotel in LoDo, one of 14 SHO residences, with a group of allstar actors. Truvy’s beauty shop is the location for most of the action — a spot where women of many types gather for hair care, gossip and wisecracking

If you go “Steel Magnolias” by Robert Harling plays through Sept. 24 at the historic Barth Hotel, 1514 17th St., Denver. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays.

free advice from the proprietor. Owner Truvy will be played by Rhonda Brown, who recently starred solo as Molly Ivins in

“Red Hot Patriot: the Kick Ass Wit of Molly Ivins.” Former Broadway actor Billie McBride will return to this stage as Ouiser, the town curmudgeon, and Devon James will play Truvy’s assistant, Annelle. Patty Figel will portray eccentric millionaire Miss Clairee and Rachel Fowler will be M’Lynn, whose daughter, Shelby, has just married as the play opens. Adrian Egolf plays Shelby, a diabetic who decides to risk a pregnancy.

One Trader Joe’s coming to Colorado was fantastic news for this California girl. Two put me over the moon, especially since it was announced No. 2 would be located on Eighth and Colorado near my Capitol Hill abode. Now, the California-based specialty grocery store I grew up on is adding a third store in Greenwood Village. The Denver Post reported Trader Joe’s has signed a lease at the Cherry Hills Marketplace at 5901 S. University Blvd., at the intersection with East Orchard Road. The first two stores — in Denver and on Boulder’s Twenty Ninth Street mall — are scheduled to open in 2014, as will the Greenwood Village store.

Off the air

Bertha Lynn has been one of my favorite on-air personalities since I arrived in Denver in 1993. She is the sweetest, most generous human being. Now that she’s leaving Denver’s 7, viewers from Golden to Highlands Ranch and Westminster to Littleton are losing a truly wonderful asset on the air. But good for her! She’s been able to reinvent herself in a new occupation. After reporting the news for more than 30 years for KMGH-Channel 7, Lynn is leaving the newsroom to become executive director of the Children’s Diabetes Foundation in Denver. “I’m writing a new chapter,” Lynn said via email. “I’m so grateful to my past and present colleagues. I’ve loved bringing home the news to the people of Colorado since 1976 and now I’m ready to apply, in a different arena, the skills I’ve learned as a communicator and in the boardrooms of the many nonprofit organizations I’ve served over the years. I’ll be working with a wonderful group of people at a respected organization. I’m thrilled!” In a 7News press release, Lynn said, “To be tapped by Barbara Davis and the Board of the Children’s Diabetes Foundation to carry on their work helping sick children is a dream come true — allowing me to meet new challenges while continuing to serve in Colorado. The people of Denver and Colorado have been very kind and generous to me as they watched me grow up. Colorado remains my home and I look forward to engaging with the community for even greater support in our battle against lifethreatening diabetes.” 7News news director Jeff Harris said Lynn’s “career at 7News is an inspiration to so many. But, more than anything else, Bertha has worked tirelessly to improve our community. For this, we are grateful and not a bit surprised in her decision to lead this wonderful organization.” Lynn, one of Denver’s most recognized and honored broadcast journalists, has been reporting news to Coloradans since 1976 when she began with KBTV (now KUSA-Channel 9) as an anchor and reporter. In 1984, she moved to 7News where she has anchored and reported for nearly every station newscast. Lynn signed off Aug. 9 in her final 7News telecast.

Former Secret Service agent to talk about JFK Clubs in your Community

Englewood High grad served three presidents By Ryan Boldrey

Editor’S notE: To add or update your club listing, e-mail calendar@ourcoloradonews.com.

Jerry Blaine has been a lot of things in his life — a sailor, a student, and a Secret Service agent assigned to three U.S. presidents, including John F. Kennedy. It’s the three years he spent with Kennedy that were documented in his New York Times best-seller “The Kennedy Detail,” and in the upcoming film due out in 2014. The 1950 Englewood High School graduate and Korean War veteran has spent a lot of time discussing his book since it was released in 2010, but says he has just one presentation left in him. Because of his local roots, he will give that presentation to the Highlands Ranch Historical Society at 7 p.m. Aug. 19 at Southridge Recreation Center, 4800 McArthur Ranch Road in Highlands Ranch. The PowerPoint presentation will be followed with a question-and-answer period as well as a book signing. The talk, he said, will focus on the difference — from the Secret Service perspective — of the Eisenhower presidency and the Kennedy presidency, the Bay of Pigs, Cuban Missile Crisis, and the personal relationship he developed with the Kennedy family. He will also talk about the differences in the Secret Service between then and now. Blaine, who was hired by the service in 1959 after earning a business degree from the University of Colorado, was the first agent assigned to the Kennedy detail and joined the president-elect in Palm Beach, Fla., the day after the 1960 election. “Being the first agent on regular detail with him, I had quite a bit of interaction with him. I had a lot more after

Jerry Blaine rides on the right rear foot of President John F. Kennedy’s limousine through the streets of Berlin in June 1963. Blaine, a 1950 Englewood High School graduate, served five years in the secret service from 1959-1964. The author of the book, “The Kennedy Detail,” he will talk about his experiences Aug. 19 with the Highlands Ranch Historical Society. Courtesy photo he hit me in the head with a golf ball,” he said. “If he wasn’t tied up in the affairs of state, he would stop by the post and shoot the breeze. He was very personal that way.” And while Kennedy was extremely personal with Blaine and the other agents, one thing Blaine won’t discuss in the presentation and does not address in his book is the personal affairs of the president — something that has been heavily documented, and not all of which Blaine says is anywhere near close to the truth. “A lot of it is exaggerated, including the Marilyn Monroe thing, which is blown way out of proportion,” he said. “It didn’t define the Kennedy administration.” While some of what may be holding Blaine back is an unwritten code between agents never to discuss First Family matters openly, he said he was compelled to write the book a few years back after “the conspiracy theorists began to kidnap history.” “It was time to put together the

facts of what happened. That’s why I wrote the book,” he said. “We knew from the day after Kennedy was elected we were working under a different circumstance than we were working under with Eisenhower.” Blaine, who saw the president for the last time when he left Fort Worth for Dallas the day he was shot, will address the assassination, and said he is happy to answer questions surrounding all of the theories that have circled it for the last 50 years. “We were always concerned about a sniper, because he was so vulnerable,” Blaine said. “He was so unpredictable he was predictable as far as going into crowds, and he loved the open-top limousine in parade situations. ... It was very difficult to stomach.” To RSVP for the Aug. 19 event, please email hrhistoricalsociety@comcast. net. The event is free for members, but a suggested donation of $1 is requested for non-members. Light refreshments will be served beginning at 6:30 p.m.. The event is from 7 to 8:30 p.m.

Orange behemoth joined by siblings Coleman enthusiasts united after last year’s WWW parade By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Vince Cissell, Buck Kamphausen and the name Coleman go way back to when, says Cissell, “Littleton was the country-bumpkin side of town.” Cissell agreed to buy Columbine Ambulance from Kamphausen, his childhood buddy, when Kamphausen got drafted, and he still owns it today. And now Cissell is tending to another matter Kamphausen got rolling - literally. Cissell ended up with Kamphausen’s behemoth orange Coleman snowplow in his storage building after last year’s Western Welcome Week parade, where it made its homecoming debut. The Coleman is a Littleton native, born at the Coleman Motor Company on Nevada Street downtown. The company was founded in 1916 by Harleigh Holmes, who some say invented front-wheel and four-wheel drive, although it’s a matter of great debate. As a kid, Kamphausen lived in Bow Mar near Fritz Noble, who had a large stake in the company. Kamphausen, Littleton High School Class of ‘57, spent large chunks of his youth mowing Noble’s lawn and visiting the plant.

Vince Cissell gets the behemoth Coleman snowplow fired up with a little help from Jim Hatfield. The two are part of Littleton’s new Coleman Club, which will ride several Colemans in the Grand Parade on Main Street Aug. 17. Photo by Jennifer Smith The company shut down in 1987. But about four years ago, Kamphausen’s sister, Dana Dunbar, found the orange beast sitting in a field near Minturn, Colo., full of elk antlers and petunias. Before it retired, it worked hard for the state clearing narrow mountain roads. Dunbar called her brother right away,

and he told her to get back there pronto. So she tracked down the owner of Battle Mountain Trading Company, where it had been resting for 30 years or so, and bought it that night. There was still air in the tires, and Kamphausen’s protégé, Josh Voss, had it running in a day and a half. By creating such a splash during Western

Welcome Week 2012, it stirred fond memories in a bunch of other Coleman fanatics. Now, Cissell, Jim Hatfield, Ken Kafka and 20 or so others have formed an official Coleman Club that will field about eight vehicles in the parade Aug. 17. “Some guys play golf, some guys chase women, some guys rebuild trucks,” explains Cissell. Hatfiled says they’re a loose affiliation of Coleman truck owners and enthusiasts under the auspices of the American Truck Historical Society. He doesn’t own one himself, but he did make an amazing find - the last vehicle ever produced by Coleman. It was a prototype American Coleman Railway Truck Inspection Vehicle that looks like no other vehicle the company ever made. It was still sitting in a shipping crate in a former Coleman warehouse in Sheridan, so Hatfield stopped in to visit with the new owner of the building. Kamphausen’s dream for the snowplow was for it to live at Littleton Museum, joined by as many Colemans as can be found. But Cissell says museum officials wanted to keep it outside, so for now it lives on his family farm near Broadway and Orchard Cissell says Coleman’s are a unique vehicle born in a unique town that used to make lots of stuff — think Heckethorn supply, Electron foundry, Red Comet fire extinguishers. “So when you think back, you think about the history of the country, the little towns had the manufacturing, and that’s where things went on,” he said.

Tragedy, romance — and Colorado scenery Englewood author enjoys scouting Rocky Mountains By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com The recently published “Journey to Sand Castle” by Leslee Breene of Englewood actually describes several journeys — that interweave three broken lives. First-grade teacher Tess Cameron, recovering from a difficult divorce, was teaching in New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina struck. As the book opens, she is helping out in her school, which has become a shelter. Breene, a member of Colorado Romance Writers, and active in the Women Writing the West (WWW) organization, is a Denver native. She also writes short fiction, winning a WWW second place in 2012 for her story, “Pueblo Dancer.” She says she hopes to publish a collection of short stories in the future. She attended the University of Denver, received a Denver Fashion Group Scholarship and graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York. For several years, she worked in San Francisco as a

newspaper fashion illustrator. Her new book follows “Leadville Lady” (2006); “Hearts on the Wind” (2008); and “Starlight Rescue” (2011). When she’s not writing, she enjoys scouting in the Rockies for book settings with her husband, and delving into area history. She enjoys meeting with book club groups to talk about her writing. Her story continues as Tess Cameron, who had determined to be carefree, commits instead to caring for a beautiful little biracial orphan named Crystal, daughter of a fellow teacher who perished. She hopes to reunite the child with a grandfather in the San Luis Valley, in Sand Castle, who had been estranged from the child’s mother. He initially shows racial prejudice and wants nothing to do with her and his slow change is another journey. Breene develops an interesting character in the grandfather and includes nice details about that beautiful, historic part of Colorado — complete with the sounds of a flight of sandhill cranes one evening. Tess takes a cooking and office job with a widowed outfitter, Grant Wilder, to support herself and Crystal — and the reader can predict where that will lead. But his and

Lone Tree Arts Center experimented last season with offering modestly priced afternoon concerts for the growing number of seniors and retirees in the area. They were chamber music or jazz programs on the second Wednesday of each month and attendance increased from a couple dozen to a couple hundred as the season went on, according to marketing director Katie Maltais. This year, they have expanded to 10 events, ranging from opera and classical to jazz and bluegrass, each at 1:30 p.m. The first, “Opera on Tap,” is unfortunately past before press time — on Aug. 14 — but readers can mark calendars in advance for the rest. • Sept. 11 — “Dez Rubano and the Jazz Drum,” a look at the evolution of percussion in the ever-changing world of jazz. • Oct. 9 — International Masterworks for Violin and Piano with Colorado Springs Philharmonic Orchestra

ACC festival off ers culture for discount Affordability is key at gathering of vendors By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Visitors to local outdoor art shows sometimes come away empty-handed and discouraged by high prices. A solution is at hand on Aug. 25 at Arapahoe Community College with the return of the Affordable Arts Festival, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the West Lawn. More than 120 local and national artists will exhibit fine arts and crafts, with nothing costing more than $100. Organizer Jim De Lutes, who is director of the annual Memorial Day weekend Downtown Arts Festival, said many of these items would normally have a much higher price. It may be a piece of older inventory, some originally over $1,000, but may be new to customers who visit the very approachable and friendly AAF. Included among Colorado artists who will have booths: Sean Brown, jewelry; JD Hillberry, realistic drawing; Rick Martin, metal work; Bil Buhler, clay; and Yelean Siderova, painting.

In other words, the combined effectiveness of a pitcher and catcher. You can’t have one without the other. “If your pitching and catching is solid, you have any kind of decent coaching, you should win more games than you lose, and with a little luck you should win much more than you lose,” said Ponderosa coach Toby Tabola. “It starts there,” he continued. “You can’t forget the catcher. You can’t have these great pitchers without a really good person to receive the ball. There have been times where I have not been able to allow a pitcher to throw a particular pitch because it’s too hard for the catcher to handle.” Tabola’s daughter, Caley Mitchell, is head coach at

Castle View. “I absolutely believe in the importance of a great pitcher and catcher,” said Mitchell. “If you have a solid hitting team and good defense you may be still able to win games, but you won’t go further than that. The defense can only do so much if you don’t have a pitcher to keep girls off base. “Catchers are just as important. Your pitcher can be great, but if you don’t have a catcher that can handle her, you are going to have problems. The catcher commands the field, she needs to be heads-up on every play, as well as be a coach for the pitcher.” Castle View and Ponderosa have two of the league’s top pitchers in the Sabercats’ junior Savannah Heebner and the Mustangs’ Ally Power, also a junior. Heebner won 13 games with 145 strikeouts and a 1.49 earned run average. Power won 14 games last season with 208 strikeouts and a 1.69 ERA. Junior Sarah Carpenter will be Power’s battery-mate after taking over the starting catching duties late last season. Senior Morgan Trujillo will be behind the plate catching Heebner. Catchers are the team leaders, setting the tone for the team and often calling timeouts to visit with pitchers to avoid a visit to the mound by a coach. “I would say the catcher is the leader on the field,” said Power. “Yeah, you listen to her. It’s very important to have confidence in your catcher. “Talks between my catcher and I are really team decisions. We discuss it and normally agree with the changes. Sarah did her job well last season.” Trujillo admits it is sometime hard for a catcher to be a leader. “In the beginning it was a challenge,” said Trujillo. “Then I realized I was involved in every single play, I’ve really got to step up my leadership role. From that point on, I love doing it. “Sometimes girls on your team just hate being told what to do. In reality you are just trying to say `let’s get back on track and we need to come together as a team.’ “Savannah has always been a stud,” continued Trujillo. “She’s getting looked at a lot by big schools. I look at myself and say she couldn’t be where she is today if she didn’t have a catcher. I’m just not talking about me but every other catcher that’s she’s experienced along the way. Without that catcher, she would be pitching to the backstop.” Castle View and Ponderosa are expected to be two of the Continental League’s strongest teams this season. Defending league champion Rock Canyon returns seven starters and the Jaguars are the team to beat. Mountain Vista, Legend and Douglas County should have a say in which team wins the league title.

Coaches’ advice: Eat and run

Cross country athletes urged to stay hydrated, get enough calories By Jim Benton

Cherry Creek’s Jordyn Colter appeared to ready to capture her second consecutive Class 5A individual state cross country championship last October when she collapsed and didn’t finish the race. It was learned that Colter had low sodium and potassium and her white blood cell count was high, but seeing one of the state’s top runners break down scared many cross country runners to pay more attention to nutrition and hydration. Two months after her scare at the state cross country meet, Colter ran fourth in the national Foot Locker Cross Country Championships in San Diego. She won the 800and 1,600-meter runs at the Class 5A state track meet last May and was third in the 3,200-meter run. “She looks strong and healthy,” Creek girls cross country coach Holly Lane said of Colter, who is a junior this season. Lane and boys coach Ethan Dusto view what their runners eat and drink.

“Some of them sort of have a misconception,” said Lane. “They don’t realize how many calories they’re burning off during training and they don’t realize how many calories they should be taking in. “During track season a few years ago, Ethan made them keep journals just so they could keep track of what they were eating so we could make sure they were eating enough. We had a nutritionist come speak to them during our summer running camp to emphasize how important proper nutrition is because you need that fuel for your body to go.” Sometimes, even with journals, it’s tough to monitor the food and water intake of runners. “We try to make sure they drink water during the day and are eating properly but when they are at school, depending what their schedule is like, they don’t always eat properly and then come out to practice and try to run hard, but they just run out of gas or they end up cramping up because of dehydration. We try to emphasize they should always have a water bottle with them.” Mountain Vista has a dominant cross country program in the Continental League. The Golden Eagles boys won the state championship last year and the girls were fourth. Cross Country continues on Page 24

Teams on course for change Difference in golf regions kept out good players in past By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Players, coaches, parents and spectators have been complaining, grumbling, muttering and whining for years about the regional golf qualifying format. In the past, many of the state’s top teams and individuals were lumped in the same regions that were determined at the start of the season. That resulted in several good golfers not being able to qualify for the state tournament, while others with higher scores did make it into the state tourney because of playing in a region with fewer talented golfers. However, a significant change has been made to the Class 5A and 4A regional qualifying setup that will also apply to the girls spring season. Now, with the new CHSAA waterfall regional

SAU 2x3

seeding system, league finishes will be submitted to the CHSAA on Sept. 9, and schools will be placed in one of four regions based on how they finished in their leagues. The idea behind the modification is that a couple conferences usually produce better golfers and often have to compete in a region for a certain number of spots in the state tournament, where another region might have schools that that don’t have as many good golfers. Last season, for example, after the predetermined number of teams qualifying in each region was set, the qualifying cutoff score in the MetroEast regional played at Common Ground Golf Club was 76. There were 38 golfers in the state tournament who played in last year’s state tournament with qualifying scores higher than 76, and there were six golfers in the Metro-East that fired a 76 and had a playoff, with only one advancing into the two-day state tournament.

“We play up nutrition and hydration probably a couple times a week,” said coach Jonathan Dalby. “We try to educate as much as we can about that kind of stuff. We try to get them to carry a water bottle around with them all day long or always have that with them. “We talk about eating fruits and vegetables. We want them to eat carbohydrates but what they always don’t think about is eating fats and protein. We try to educate them on eating the right kind of fats and protein. Those three things kind of fuel you up as an athlete and help better performances day in and day out.” Mountain Vista senior Connor Weaver, who was the first Golden Eagles runner to cross the finish line, in 12th place at the 2012 state meet, tries to eat healthy and watches his iron levels. “Every day I take a vitamin supplement and an iron supplement,” he said. “My sophomore year I found out I was anemic and that when I run, I sweat a lot. I lose iron more quickly than a lot of other people. Without iron, oxygen

can’t be transported throughout the body as quickly. So that is a big thing for me, making sure my iron levels are good. “I know everybody on our team drinks two full 32-ounce bottles of water a day. I know Andrew Walton and I do protein shakes typically an hour after a hard workout. That seems to help the muscles recover.” Highlands Ranch also has their girls and boys runners keep journals on what they eat, and Clifford and head boys coach Nicky DeBolt harp on their athletes to keep hydrated. “I play a lot of attention to my diet,” said Highlands Ranch senior Nick Meis. “My goal is to keep consumption of junk food to a minimum. I keep a water bottle with me at school. I make sure I sip water throughout the day when I know I’ll be running in the afternoon.” Clifford has issued a warning to Highlands Ranch teachers. “We did tell the kids we were going to email their teachers,” related Clifford. “If they yell at you for having to go to the bathroom all the time, have them email us because you have to stay hydrated all the time.”

ern metro regions were very strong and the northern much stronger than metro west. In 2006, Douglas County won the league by 50 shots but finished fourth at regionals behind Air Academy, that had a career day, and Chaparral and ThunderRidge. “ThunderRidge and Chaparral finished 1-2 in the state tournament after Douglas County finished ahead of them throughout the regular season. Golf in the state of Colorado is basically a one-day season, the regionals. If you have a great season and have a bad day at regionals, you are out. The realignment hopefully will cut down the numbers of one-day wonders qualifying for the state tournament.” Mountain Vista coach Tim Taylor is another coach who lauds the CSHAA for taking a step in the right direction. “This is a step towards a better idea,” he said. “We always thought league should really mean something. Standings in the league were irrelevant. Now all of a sudden they mean something. The way you play in league will give you a chance to play well in the regional and get into the state tourna-

ment. “A lot of coaches for years have been saying that if you had a league like our league that was pretty deep and had kids go to a regional tournament that was a one-day shootout, which we never thought was right, you could have kids that shot 76, 77, 78 and not make it into the state tournament.” Littleton’s Joe Schroer was one of those golfers. He carded a 76 at the Metro-East regional and wasn’t the one golfer to survive a six-player playoff. He was eliminated from the state tournament. “It was kind of hard to look at the regional scores when they came out the next day, especially in the Jeffco League,” said Schroer. “I think it was 82 or 83 that was the cut. Hopefully it will be better this year.” Arapahoe coach Harry Buckner summed up the qualifying change in a few words. “Good golfers will get to state now,” he said. Highlands Ranch coach James Barker, however, doesn’t like the change. “To me a region is a geographic area,

and you ought to know where your regional championship is going to be well ahead of time so you can get some practice rounds on the course,” said Barker. “Also, the season has to end on Sept. 9 to do this seeding for the regionals, so that means we’re only going to be playing a monthlong season. “I don’t like it at all. My argument against people who complain about shooting a good score and not getting into the state championship is they need to get better. I do think we shouldn’t have players who shoot 90 in the state championship, but I don’t think we’ve ever found a good formula. Maybe a two-day regional would be better.” Regis Jesuit and Cherry Creek will again be among the state’s top teams, and Douglas County returns the defending Class 5A individual champion in Kyler Dunkle. Valor Christian finished second in the 2012 Class 4A state tournament, losing a playoff to Pueblo South on the second hole. Four players on that team, Josh Seiple, Coby Welch, Jake Staiano and Ross Macdonald, were underclassmen.
