Full-throttle flight, fight Fast planes. Fast cars. And, hopefully, a fast and final cure for childhood cancer. Lovers of classic cars, motorcycles and aircraft gathered Aug. 23 at Centennial Airport for the 2014 Morgan Adams Concours d’Elegance. More than 100 vintage cars and 40 aircraft lined the ramp
outside the TAC Air hangar as the annual charity event got underway beneath a spectacular Colorado sky. Guests were treated to a thrilling aerial demonstration featuring airshow pilots Gary Rower and Ryland Roetman, and German National Aerobatic pilot, Dagmar Kress. Vet-
eran auctioneer Don Martin was on hand to help stir up a little generosity for the event’s namesake, the Morgan Adams Foundation. Founded in 2003, the foundation raises money and awareness on behalf of children affected with cancer.

jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Parents who sent their kids back to Littleton Public Schools this month can rest assured the district is doing its job, according to newly released Transitional Colorado Assessment Program results. LPS students scored 10 to 20 percentage points higher at the proficient and advanced levels than the state average in all grades and all subjects tested. The district remains designated at the highest level possible, “accredited with distinction,” though its point total on the performance framework report that determines that score slipped slightly from last year’s 81.1 out of 100 to 80.6. It was at 84.1 the year before that. The performance framework report provides information, based on TCAP scores, about the levels of attainment in each of the four key performance indicators: achievement, growth, extent of gaps, and postsecondary and workforce readiness.

Motorists frequenting East Peakview Avenue and South Dayton Street should expect to see improvements to the intersection in the near future. The project is to include the addition of a second eastbound and westbound travel lane on Peakview Avenue, between Dayton Street and Boston Street. On all corners of the intersection, traffic signals will be replaced and upgraded to include protected/ permissive left turns. The area will be repaved, new striping will be added and curbs and gutters will be replaced. There will be no improvements to the parking area, which is located on the east side of the intersection. The Centennial City Council on Aug. 19 passed a resolution approving an intergovernmental agreement concerning the intersection. Jurisdictional boundaries divide the area between the City of Centennial, controlling the southeast corner; the City of Intersection continues on Page 4

CDOT hears public comment on C-470 project First of eight meetings gives citizens chance to speak minds By Christy Steadman csteadman@colorado communitymedia.com
A lack of current funding sources leaves the C-470 expansion project about $118 million short, Colorado Department of Transportation representatives say. The total estimated cost of the project — which would add express toll lanes along the highway from I-25 to Wadsworth — is $230 million. CDOT reported that $102 million is proposed to come from federal and state funds, and $10 million is proposed to come from Douglas County. At an Aug. 19 public outreach meeting hosted by the Highlands Ranch Metro District, CDOT reported there are a couple of different funding options that are being examined to fill the gap. Among those speaking was Mike Cheroutes, director of High Performance Transportation Enterprise, a small unit within CDOT with the responsibility to pursue and explore innovative means to finance important transportation projects. Cheroutes presented information on
FUTURE PUBLIC OUTREACH MEETINGS CDOT Hosted Telephone Town Halls • Sept. 9, 7-8 p.m. Jefferson County • Sept. 10, 7-8 p.m. Arapahoe County • Sept. 11, 7-8 p.m. Douglas County * To participate in a telephone town hall, call 877229-8493 and enter PIN 110302. CDOT Public Open Houses: • Sept. 15, 6-8 p.m., Ken Caryl Ranch House, 7676 S. Continental Divide Rd., Littleton, 80127 • Sept. 16, 6-8 p.m., Highlands Ranch Metro District Office, 62 Plaza Dr., Highlands Ranch, 80124 • Sept. 17, 6-8 p.m., Lone Tree Arts Center, 10075 Commons St., Lone Tree, 80124 • Sept. 18, 6-8 p.m., Homestead Elementary School, 7451 S. Homestead Pkwy, Englewood, 80112 entering a Public Private Partnership, known as a P3, to help with the additional funding needed for the project. But he said that a P3 likely would not be used, because “preliminary analysis suggests that given the size and scope of this project, a better option may be traditional public financing.” The bulk of the shortfall could come
from toll revenue, officials say. CDOT officials say that an estimated $103 million of toll revenue is projected over 35 years, and HPTE would likely issue toll revenue bonds and use federal loans to get the project moving. To make up for the projected shortfall in toll revenue, CDOT is in the process of applying for a $15 million Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery grant. The grant is part of a discretionary grant program that would provide an opportunity for CDOT to invest in road, rail, transit and port projects that promise to achieve critical national objectives, according the department’s website. The C-470 project’s purpose is to relieve congestion and improve safety and mobility on C-470 by constructing additional lanes. In the fall of 2012, the C-470 Corridor Coalition — made up of representatives from governmental bodies that border C-470, including Douglas, Arapahoe and Jefferson counties — executed a public outreach initiative and presented three funding options for the project. The options included tolling all lanes, putting a sales or property tax initiative on the ballot, or just tolling the new express lanes, which would be built as part of the project. From a 639-voter sample, public input
proved the tax incentive and all-toll to be unfavorable to citizens, according to CDOT documentation. And on Feb. 7, 2013, the C-470 Coalition voted to place a toll on only the new express lanes of the highway. The user-based toll option passed 7-0 among the coalition. “We’re offering a choice to motorists with this project,” said Jerome Estes, resident engineer for CDOT. Cheroutes stated the HPTE is looking at late September or early October to make a recommendation to CDOT on how to finalize the funding for the project. Construction of the project is not slated to begin until early 2016. The Aug. 19 meeting was the first of a series of eight public outreach meetings that will be held in Douglas, Arapahoe and Jefferson counties. About 50 residents attended the meeting. Cheroutes said it is important for the agencies to hear what the needs are of the various communities, and to give the public an opportunity to voice their priorities and values around transportation. “Each corridor has unique interests in mobility, transit and the types of choice travelers want to access,” Cheroutes said. “The input from these meetings helps HPTE and CDOT deliver the best possible transportation solutions.”

The City of Centennial is inviting the public to an open house to learn more about the project to widen Arapahoe Road from Waco Street to Himalaya Way. From 5 to 7 p.m. Sept. 4, anyone interested in the project can stop by the school cafeteria at Grandview High School, 20500 E. Arapahoe Road, Aurora. The city cites increased congestion, lack of left-turn lanes and bottlenecks as reasons to move forward with the $15 million project, with the goals of improving safety and mobility. This stretch of Arapahoe Road handles nearly 24,000 vehicles per day, several thousand more than originally designed for, the city said.

Square dancers get around Group to mark 75th year in south metro area in October By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com In September 1939, as World War II began in Europe, Public Service Company employee Joe Lang, who had learned to call square dancing, started holding square dances in the company’s truck garage — pulling out the trucks and steam cleaning the floor first, according Ron and Karen Dreher, who are helping to keep the dance group going strong in 2014. Dancers were originally part of Public Services’ G&E club, but changed the name to Kilowatt Eights in 1956. On Oct. 3, the group will hold a gala dinner and dance at Malley Senior Center in Englewood, where members now meet to dance, to celebrate Kilowatt Eights’ 75th year as a club.
In July 1996, Kilowatt Eights was recognized by American Square Dance Magazine as the oldest active square dance club in the country — and they’re still circling around and swinging those partners. They’re also offering classes for those who need a little help getting started on the right foot. Classes begin on Sept. 10, on Wednesdays from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Englewood First Presbyterian Church, corner of Hampden and South Logan, near Swedish Medical Center. Another class starts Oct. 20 at the Grandview Grange, at South Vine Street and East Noble Place (across from the South Suburban Ice Rink.) For class information, contact Karen and Ron Dreher, 303-759-4862, rdreher@q. com. During America’s time in World War II, employees had to dance elsewhere due to security considerations with the garage, so they danced in the garage’s lunchroom until membership outgrew it in 1948, when the club moved to the Wight Building in downtown Denver, then to the company’s Belleview Center in Littleton.

average, but the results have been inconsistent over the years,” reads a press release that accompanied the most recent results, released on Aug. 15. “LPS looks forward to a new state writing assessment that will be aligned to the new expectations of the Colorado Academic Standards.” LPS writing scores outperformed the state average by double digits for the second year in a row, by as much as 18 percentage points. LPS math scores are the highest ever in some areas. Eighth-graders improved by 6 percentage points of those who scored proficient and advanced from last year. Scores for grades four, seven and eight are at all-time highs, and all grades tested are above the state average. All LPS schools exceeded the state’s targets in reading. Five LPS schools

This year, LPS grades three through eight scored at or above 80 percent proficient and advanced in reading for the third year in a row, and exceed the state average by as much as 16 percentage points. This was the last year the TCAP will be administered. It was bridging the gap between the end of the Colorado Student Assessment Program four years ago, and the Colorado Measures of Academic Success, set to be fully implemented this year. District administrators hope the switch will normalize demonstrated results. “District writing scores overall continue to be much higher than the state

Greenwood Village is managing the project, as the majority of the improvements are located within its jurisdiction. The total cost of the improvements is estimated to be at $886,000.

had median growth in reading above the 60th percentile: Franklin, Runyon, Sandburg, Wilder and Littleton Academy Middle School. Districtwide, students who get free or reduced-cost lunches increased their scores in 12 of the 24 grades and areas tested, even as poverty rates continue to increase in LPS. District administrators note the state standards are just one of several assessments they use to measure student progress. “LPS has an achievement goal that states that 90 percent of all students K-10 will be on or above grade level in reading, math, writing and science,” reads the press release. “The achievement gap in student performance will be cut in half. Students not at grade level will exhibit catch-up growth. All students will achieve at high levels.”
cent contingency cost to allow for variations in construction pricing. Prior to the contingency, Centennial’s share is estimated to be $156,000. Greenwood Village’s share is 56 percent, an estimated cost of $496,000. Arapahoe County’s share is 26.4 percent, an estimated cost of $234,000. Funds for the City of Centennial’s share were included in the 2014 budget, which was adopted on Nov. 4, 2013. No further fiscal impact from the project is anticipated. Justin Williams, traffic project manager for Greenwood Village, said construction is anticipated to begin in midSeptember and should be expected to last about 60 days. “The majority of the construction is along the edge of the roadway,” he said, “so we don’t expect any major lane closures or delays during construction of the project.”

Centennial pianist aims for the stars By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com Young pianist Kevin Ahfat was born in Canada, but has lived in Centennial since he was 5 years old. It’s where he started music lessons at age 7. By 13, he dedicated himself to a musical career, understanding the self-discipline that choice requires. Ahfat has been on the local Young Musicians Foundation roster for two years. It’s an organization that chooses its roster members through audition and supports them with grants to cover extra fees for summer festivals and training and other needs. He recently performed in a YMF
showcase concert at the Newman Center. “It allows me to experience without financial worries,” he says in praise of YMF. He attended Grandview Hugh School, and every Sunday, he went to Greeley for a lesson with Dr. Lei Weng, a UNC faculty member who encouraged the young musician as he began his journey. “He really took me to the next level,” Ahfat said. In March 2012, he sent an audition DVD to the Juilliard School, a performing arts conservatory, located at the Lincoln Center in New York City, and waited for a response — the invitation to come to New York for a live audition. The acceptance arrived and he says his lifestyle changed after he started at Juil-

liard. He lived in a dorm the first two years, attended classes, gave solo performances, and won a concerto competition that led to a performance of Barber’s Piano Concerto, Op. 38, with the Julliard Orchestra in the Alice Tully Hall at the Lincoln Center. He is excited at the Ahfat prospect of sharing a Manhattan apartment for the coming school year and talks about his future: “It’s always open-ended, especially in the classic music industry. I definitely want to be performing … I love being onstage so much. I love the rapport between the audi-
ence and the performer. I can just let go.” He says the past two to four years have meant he learned to have more fun with music. The curriculum at Juilliard is flexible and can shape an artist as he wants to grow. “It’s important to identify what you want to do — to work on your strengths. The faculty is amazing,” he adds. He studies under the guidance of Mr. Choong-Mo Kang at Julliard and was a Fellow at the 2014 Music Academy of the West in Santa Barbara this summer — one of eight pianists selected worldwide. As he returns to New York for his junior year, he says it’s time to add some new music to his repertoire — “This is the time.”

Other family-friendly fun at the festival included a bouncy castle, rock climbing wall and the showing of the movie, “The Princess Bride,” at dusk. brating the Second Amendment, Stanley said one purpose of the event is to promote family. “Any time you do something for the community, you have to include the family,” he said. On Saturday, for the kids, there was a bouncy castle, climbing wall and mechanical bull. At dusk, “The Princess Bride” was shown for movie in the park.
Stanley said one goal of holding a family-friendly festival is to take away the fear and stigma of gun ownership, and said it can be done by making sure people who own guns are trained in safety, control and marksmanship. “No one should have a gun if they’re not trained, safe and confident,” he said. The Centennial Gun Club is the biggest in Colo-
rado, said Stanley, with 3,400 members. He estimated that thousands of people came to the first Firearms Festival. Stanley said the club would like to make the free festival an annual event to gather like-minded gun enthusiasts from the greater Denver area. “We’re celebrating Americana,” Stanley said. “Food, fun, music — and guns.”

Empty nest takes some getting used to Some of you reading this column will relate as a parent who has gone through the bittersweet event of having your children move out, especially if it is your last child or they were an only child. And every one of us reading these words today has been that child or young adult who has moved away from home, at some point, eventually. Many went to college, others joined the military, and there were some who just felt like it was time to go and find a job or employment and another place to live. Some chose to move fairly close to home, but just far enough to keep the parents from “popping by” and yet close enough to raid the pantry and do some laundry if necessary. And if we can look at our own departures from home we would probably remember the bittersweet moment, our nervousness, the anxious anticipation that accompanies any new adventure, and we probably also remember the melancholy look upon our parents’ faces, possibly even a tear or two on their cheeks as well as maybe even a little drop from our own eyes. There are obviously mixed emotions, and in many cases when extreme happiness and excitement enter the arena, they can serve as blockers to the deeper emotions that we attempt to hide. And I can tell you that as last of my children moved into a dorm last weekend, it was definitely a bittersweet moment. Although she was my most rebel-
lious child, she has also been blessed with boundless energy. She has also been blessed with boundless emotions. So combining rebellion with emotionally charged energy sometimes could create a little bit of friction in the house, OK, maybe a lot of friction and tension. Will I miss her? Absolutely. Will I miss her sense of humor? Yes. Will I miss her hugs? No question. Will I miss just seeing her wandering around the house, waking up, or more accurately waking her up? Yes I will. Will I miss grounding her? No way. Will I miss the emotionally driven arguments? Nope. Will I miss waiting up to hear her come in at night? No chance, as I have been looking forward to a solid night’s sleep for so long. When change happens in our life, just like having our children or child move away, or when you the young adult are choosing to move away from mom and dad, we have to remember the importance of staying connected through memories, text messages, calls, emails, and visits. Change is not a “four letter word,” it is
just something that happens. And as with all change, even though we may not like it or agree with it, we know and accept that change happens, and it will always happen. It’s all about how we prepare our hearts and minds to deal with the change when it does occur. Mixed emotions and bittersweet moments are natural and awesome all at the same time. It’s when they occur that they tap into our senses and tug hard on our own hearts, letting us know that we are indeed alive and full of feeling. They say that gratitude is one of the healthiest of all human emotions. So instead of focusing on the things I will not miss about my daughter’s departure, I will focus on appreciating all the funny, exciting and challenging times she brought into my life. How about you? Does the bittersweet moment of loved ones moving out or moving out yourself lead you more towards gratitude and appreciation for all the times and memories you had together, or are you wrestling with the melancholy feelings and separation anxiety? Either way I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@ gmail.com, and when we can enjoy the memories, stay in contact, and just let those bittersweet moments happen, it really will be a better than good week.

A brilliant spark that left a mark Robin Williams looked at me from the cover of a magazine this summer, and I had a very hard time looking back. Since I grocery shop almost every day, it happened more than once. It was a full frontal of his face, and he had a very small smile. The picture had a near-opposite effect on me, and I actually couldn’t look at it for more than a second or two. He said, “You’re only given a little spark of madness. You mustn’t lose it.” I don’t know enough — or much of anything — about depression or Parkinson’s disease, but I can tell you lots of things about alcoholism. Things depress the hell out of me, but I do not suffer from depression. That may not make sense, but I just don’t experience interior depression. I become depressed by external events, mostly. I cannot imagine bundling depression with the oncoming of Parkinson’s disease with alcoholism with Robin’s phenomenal instincts for observations, for improvisational humor, and
for intense acting. Time after time, his liquid mind amazed me, but generally not in the performances that he was best known for. I never watched “Mork and Mindy,” and didn’t particularly care for “Mrs. Doubtfire.” Obviously he was stunning in “Good Will Hunting,” but I always wince at all of the profanity in the film. I prefer “One Hour Photo” to “Good Morning, Vietnam.” The performances I liked best were the unscripted ones, when he would walk across the stage and shake David
Letterman’s hand, and proceed to take me some place that was unbelievably believable. It was non-stop, too. I would always ask myself, “How did he do that? How did he get that way?” I have read about his background, but a remarkable background is not always a guarantee that brilliance will follow. I wondered what he was like at home. Was he “on” only when he was on? Or was he on all of the time? The World Health Organization estimates that 121 million people worldwide suffer from some form of depression. Anyway, the cover photo saddened me. But I kind of understood why he did what he did. In commentaries since his death, I have heard over and over that if we know someone who suffers from depression — or alcoholism — that you have a near responsibility to help them, or get them some help. It’s easier said than done. Marshall continues on Page 9

Death penalty lurks at edges of election Governor’s views may matter little to voters By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Death penalty politics resurfaced in the gubernatorial race last week on the heels of comments made by Gov. John Hickenlooper during a recent television interview. But political observers wonder just how much voters actually care about capital punishment in relation to other issues, and what impact, if any, the death penalty debate will have come November. Hickenlooper confirmed to KDVR-TV on Aug. 18 what many believe has been the case for a while — that he’s changed his mind over the years and is now against the death penalty. “There’s no deterrence to having capital punishment,” Hickenlooper said during the interview. The governor said he had been a death penalty supporter his entire life until factors, such as the high cost of putting someone to death, started to turn his mind
around on the issue. “And, I don’t know about you, but when I get new facts, I change my opinion,” said Hickenlooper, who told voters four years ago that he was in favor of the death penalty. Hickenlooper has had to deal with questions about his views on capital punishment since last year, when he chose to grant a temporary reprieve for death row inmate Nathan Dunlap, who was convicted of murdering four people at an Aurora Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant in 1993. Republicans have attacked Hickenlooper for failing to see through Dunlap’s execution. The death penalty issue has been used by former Congressman Bob Beauprez, who is running against Hickenlooper this fall, as a way to call out the governor for his “failed leadership” on the issue. “If he truly does oppose the death penalty, he should have commuted Nathan Dunlap’s sentence instead of leaving the decision to the next governor,” Beauprez said through a press statement. “As Colorado’s next governor, I will see that justice is served.”
Eddie Stern, a spokesman for Hickenlooper’s campaign, said the governor “made a decision knowing it wouldn’t be a popular decision, but it is the right decision.” Stern also said it is important to remember that the governor granted a reprieve, not clemency for Dunlap. “At that time, he explained why he felt a temporary reprieve was more important than clemency,” Stern said.
Issue may not sway voters But will voters care about Nathan Dunlap and the death penalty come November? “When you look at voters, in particular, independents, and when you look at list of concerns they have, you’re not going to find the death penalty on that list,” said Norman Provizer, a political science professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver. “It’s a hot topic and the Beauprez campaign is trying to make an issue out of it, but I don’t think it’s a high priority issue.” John Straayer, a political science professor at Colorado State University, said “a lot
of people have been changing their mind on the death penalty” over the years. And Straayer wonders if Beauprez is simply trying to energize voters who are already inclined to vote for him. “It might be being done to the advantage of appealing to his own party,” he said. “But I just wonder whether they’re getting a lot of traction out of that beyond the base of their own party.” Provizer said voters care more about Colorado’s improved economy than issues like the death penalty. “If I were a candidate and I had a choice between being attacked on the death penalty or unemployment being down to around 5 percent, it wouldn’t be a question of what I would choose,” Provizer said. Still, a polarizing issue like this one could have on an impact on at least a small percentage of the electorate — perhaps enough to flip a tight election. “I think we all understand, in any close election, little things can make an enormous difference,” Provizer said. “I can say the death penalty question is not a major issue, but in a close election, it could make a difference.”
State shines in two economic reports Not good enough, says Beauprez campaign By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Colorado’s economic outlook is bright, as is indicated by two business reports that were released last week. The state’s unemployment rate ticked down slightly in July, and Colorado experienced its 33rd consecutive month of job gains. And, on the heels of those statistics, a business website ranked Colorado number one on its list of state economies. Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper greeted the economic news with tempered
Marshall Continued from Page 8
Maybe Robin didn’t want help. Everyone is not a perfect candidate for Dr. Phil’s inevitable show-ending offer. This summer was a bunch of bumping bumper cars, wasn’t it? Those kids coming across the border, same-sex marriages, the World Cup, Ferguson, Mo., Mo’ne, here-we-go-again in the Middle East, and a man we all knew who took his life. I am not exactly sure why the magazine cover affected me the way it did. Sometimes life only gives (me) a few days of relief at a time before something shows up in the news that brings me back down again. That will never change. If you tend to think of Robin always
optimism. “While our economy continues to be recognized as the fastest-growing in the nation, we know there is still much work to be done,” the governor said through an emailed statement. “We are focused on ensuring we foster a positive business climate — whether a start-up or Fortune 500 company — and retaining our talented workforce.” The unemployment numbers, which were released by the state Department of Labor and Employment, show that 3,500 non-farm jobs were added in July. That growth allowed the state’s unemployment rate to drop from 5.5 percent to 5.3 percent. That’s the lowest unemployment rate the state has seen since October 2008, just as the Great Recession was kicking in.
primary campaign strategy. But the campaign behind his opponent this November, Republican Bob Beauprez, a former congressman, said things could be a lot better for Coloradans. The Beauprez campaign points to evidence of sluggish economies in rural parts of the state as an indication that Hickenlooper and Democratic lawmakers have little interest in focusing on improving economies outside of the Denver metro area. “Certainly there are signs that after this prolonged recovery there are some signs of life,” said Allen Fuller, communications director for the Beauprez campaign. “But, for a lot of Colorado families, recovery hasn’t come to their doorstep yet.”
being in motion, watch “One Hour Photo.” There is a scene in Sy Parrish’s kitchen, when Robin, who had been fired earlier in the day, stands alone in his kitchen with a glass of water in his hand. He doesn’t move and the director holds the shot for almost 15 seconds. I am not the most positive, uplifting man you will ever know, and I know that. But I am a sentimental old piece of crust, down deep somewhere, and I just wanted to write a small thank-you note to the man on the cover. Robin said, “In America they really do mythologize people when they die.” Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

Meanwhile, the website Business Insider ranked Colorado’s economy as the best in the nation. The influential business website used eight metrics to determine its rankings, with Colorado ranking in the top 10 in five of them. Business Insider cited Colorado’s “highly diversified” economy as a key factor in its top ranking, which includes a healthy aerospace sector and the state’s “huge amount” of federal investment. The website also factored in the state’s growth in job creation and in its workingage population. The unemployment numbers and the business report come as good news to Hickenlooper, who is seeking re-election in the fall. The governor has touted the state’s improving economic health as his

Keeping an eye on trains
Selection of works on display in Castle Rock By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com QRstorytelling Gallery in Castle Rock is featuring a one-man show of works by local photographer Ken Smith, who specializes in trains, vintage transportation and beautiful landscapes, as well as Americana. He said he would have 19 pieces exhibited and talked of his flexibility in helping a potential customer find just the right thing. If you wonder how it might look on your west wall, send him a picture of that wall, he’ll return it with the photo under consideration inset. He travels the country shooting trains, and learns the whereabouts of vintage engines and cars through a network of railroad buffs. “It’s an adrenaline rush to see a steam engine going by at 60 miles an hour,” he said. This photographer, who sold his first railroad photograph more than 30 years ago, shot “Classic Lines,” a Santa Fe engine, in Galveston, Texas and the one called “Steam in Castle Rock” is shot near the weathered Castle Rock Granary — with the Union Pacific No. 844 on the 150th anniversary of the UP. His first photo was of the train station in Hammond, Ind., where he was working for Sears. They asked employees to submit photos and a customer saw his and bought it. More sales followed and Sears gave him camera gear in exchange for an ongoing supply of prints to sell. His retail background has helped with a well-tuned sense of sales technique, he said. “People have to connect with the artist,” he says, so he makes a point of introducing himself and telling the story behind a photo, rather than gluing that story on the back of the print. He has moved to pursuing his photography full time. “I try not to travel more than three weeks a month,” he says. “And I take January off.” He participated in 27 shows in the past year — about one every other week — and travels to about eight states per year. Sometimes his wife and 6-yearold daughter travel with him — to the Tetons this summer, for example. “I also schedule pure photography time,” he adds, mentioning a plan to shoot fall colors in the San Juans.
IF YOU GO Smith’s photographs will be exhibited through Sept. 30 at QRstorytelling Gallery, which is located in the historic carriage house at 505 Second St. in Castle Rock, “just across the tracks.” Owner Lucia McConnell says she opened in 2013 in property owned by architect Dave Hieronymous, who has his office in the Philip S. Miller home, which he moved to the property. 303-947-6286.
Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning is upping his commercial cred by adding Gatorade to his growing list of product endorsements. Two new TV spots have been released under the tagline “Gatorade: Sweat It To Get It.” In each ad, a woman attempts to buy Gatorade at a convenience store, but the red-vested clerk deems these customers unworthy. In each scenario, the clerk tells the women that Gatorade is only for people who work out. Since he sees no sign of sweat, they don’t deserve the post-exercise drink. Manning plays the store manager, whom the clerk asks to clarify the store policy to each of the sweat-free gals. In one commercial, Manning grabs the Gatorade and hurls it across the store. “Go deep,” he says. In the second ad, the woman says it’s her birthday and she confesses that she’s buying the drink for a hangover. When Manning-the-manager comes to the clerk’s aid, the two challenge the birthday girl to perform a yoga position so she can sweat. Both ads are scary believable in a “Candid Camera” way. Manning plays a convincing manager, which could serve him well with his Papa John’s franchises.
Shoe collectors unite for charity

Calling all shoe collectors (who me?), those shoes you no longer want are desperately needed to help fight global poverty. That’s the message being delivered by Michele James, who has launched a Back to School Shoe Drive to collect 10,000 pairs of shoes to help the poor. The shoes that Soles4Souls.CO collects will be delivered to Soles4Souls, an international antipoverty organization that monetizes used shoes and clothing to create sustainable jobs and fund direct relief efforts, including distribution of new shoes and clothing. Founded in 2007, the organization has distributed more than 25 million shoes in more than 100 countries. “Soles4Souls.CO is supporting Soles4Souls because it is the definition of a social enterprise where solid business practices are used to create positive change in people’s lives,” James said. ”Colorado has been a strong supporter of Soles4Souls’ anti-poverty mission, and we hope to take a big step in providing the organization with the used shoes they require to keep making a sustainable difference for people in need.” Bring shoes to any Colorado location listed at soles4souls.org/locations. Use the zip code locator to find the drop off spot nearest to you. For more information, contact James at 720320-1755 or Soles4Souls.CO@gmail.com.

Downtown Denver has the Taste of Colorado for Labor Day weekend, but there’s much more going on in other places (and mostly at other times). Here’s just a few options: Parker hosts the Smokin’ Brew BBQ Festival Aug. 29-Sept. 3. The Smokin’ Brew BBQ is sanctioned by the Kansas City Barbeque Society and will be held at Parker Station, 19751 E. Mainstreet, beginning at 4 p.m. Aug. 29. The festivities will conclude with an awards ceremony at 5 p.m. Aug. 31. The Godfather of BBQ and star of TLC’s “BBQ Pitmasters,” Johnny Trigg, will be attending. It’s not Labor Day weekend, but Cherry Hills Country Club in Cherry Hills Village is hosting the BMW Championship from Sept. 4-7 — also not Labor Day weekend — as part of the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup playoffs. Many top players will be there, including PGA Championship and British Open champ Rory McElroy and five-time majors winner Phil Mickelson.

A new football frontier Numerous area schools change leagues, coaches By Jim Benton
jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com The remodeling is completed and a new landscape for south-metro area football teams will be displayed this season. More than a dozen of the south metro schools covered by Colorado Community Media will be competing in different leagues, and there are six new head coaches that will be making their debuts. Rod Dobbs takes over for John Vogt at Chaparral; Gene Hill replaces Jeff Ketron at Douglas County; Mark Robinson supplants Darrel Gorham at Highlands Ranch; and Tyler Knoblock is the new mentor at Heritage, succeeding Mike Griebel. Blair
GETTING TO KNOW EACH OTHER The new football league alignments involving south metro teams: CENTENNIAL (5A): Cherry Creek, Valor Christian, Cherokee Trail, Eaglecrest, Overland, Grandview. CONTINENTAL NORTH (5A): Rock Canyon, Fruita Monument, Highlands Ranch, Mountain Vista, ThunderRidge, Regis Jesuit. CONTINENTAL SOUTH (5A): Castle View, Doherty, Fountain-Fort Carson, Legend, Chaparral, Doug-
Hubbard moves from Faith Christian to Lutheran as Daryl Moe’s replacement. Jaron Cohen is the new Ponderosa coach after Jamie Woodruff stepped down. New league alignments find five-time and defending state champion Valor Christian, an independent the past two seasons, joining the Class 5A Centennial League.
las County. SOUTH METRO (5A): Arapahoe, Heritage, Gateway, Aurora Hinkley, Rangeview, Grand Junction, Smoky Hill. PLAINS (4A): Ponderosa, Littleton, Dakota Ridge, Green Mountain, J.K. Kennedy, Lincoln. COLORADO 7 (3A): Englewood, Lutheran, Elizabeth, Fort Lupton, Fort Morgan, Skyview, Vista Peak, Weld Central.
“We’re excited about the week in and week out grind,” said Valor coach Rod Sherman. “Most people would argue that it’s the best league in the state with just how teams have done over the last couple years. We’re getting into the mindset that we are going to play five league games that are going to be four-quarter games and I
would guess one or two of them are going to end up in overtime. “It’s going to be a great challenge for us. We’re going to have to show up every night in the league just to be in the game at the end of it. We’re excited to play teams with great history like Cherry Creek, Grandview and Cherokee Trail. And Eaglecrest and Overland are really growing their programs the last couple years.” Valor is top-ranked in the CHSAANow. com preseason poll and Cherry Creek is No. 2. Both schools have challenging nonleague schedules. “The Centennial League has been a football power for a long as I’ve coached,” said Bruins coach Dave Logan. “Now that you add a team like Valor, it just makes it even tougher.” The erstwhile Class 5A Continental Frontier continues on Page 19

CHERRY CREEK
Com Class 5A preseason rankings, has a strenuous schedule that includes Centennial League encounters plus non-league games against Regis Jesuit, Pomona, Jordan (Utah) and Grand Terrace (Calif.) “The summer workouts have been good, the kids have really invested and they are committed to hard work which is the basis for any kind of success,” said Logan. “We’ll see. What you worry about when you play this kind of competition every single week is your depth, you worry about your injuries.”

Disney Wide World of Sports Complex. The Florida school came out on top, 48-21.
with their only loss coming to a team from Bingham, Utah that was also last season’s state champion.

VALOR CHRISTIAN COACH: Rod Sherman 2013 RECAP: The Eagles won their fifth consecutive state championship and second in the Class 5A ranks. Valor was 13-1
2014 OUTLOOK: Valor opened the season topping Idaho Falls
school Bonneville, 61-20 on the road on Aug. 22. They follow that with other non-league games against Pomona, Utah powerhouse Salt Lake East and Chandler (Ariz.) before beginning Centennial League play. The team will be strong again, although the offensive line may not be as dominating as in previous seasons.
“We have high expectations,” said Sherman. “We have a very difficult schedule ahead of us, I’d say the most difficult we’ve ever had. We’ll find out about ourselves. We’ll hit some adversity and we’ll see how we respond. We’re pretty excited about our team coming together. I really, really like this team.”

Denver Cutthroats suspend operations Staff report The Central Hockey League (CHL) has announced that the Denver Cutthroats have suspended operations, effective immediately, and will not compete in the 2014-15 season.
Frontier Continued from Page 18
League will be split into the Continental North and South with six additions. Highlands Ranch, ThunderRidge, Mountain Vista, Regis Jesuit, Rock Canyon and Fruita Monument will be in the Continental North. The Continental South will have Chaparral, Douglas County, Castle View, Legend, Doherty and Fountain-Fort Carson. “The new 5A alignment represents an imperfect process but it does a good job of honoring regional rivalries, splitting up private schools and helping out the Western Slope,” said Castle View coach Ryan Hollingshead. “There is some imbalance in the strength of leagues, but it is healthy to have everyone in a competitive environment. No school should be stuck in an impossible league to rebuild year after year.” Hill, who was elevated from an assistant to the head coaching position at Douglas County, anticipates a competitive title race in the Continental South.
The team will look to secure additional investors with the hope of returning for the 2015-16 campaign. Any players signed to contracts for Denver for the upcoming season became free agents immediately. “I really do like it,” he said. “Douglas County, Doherty, Castle View, Legend, Fountain-Fort Carson and Chaparral, I think all of us are pretty even and it will be a dogfight to win this conference.” Arapahoe and Heritage will be in the Class 5A South Metro Conference. Ponderosa joins holdover Littleton in the Class 4A Plains League, while Englewood, Lutheran and Elizabeth will be members of the Class 3A Colorado 7 loop. “We are entering the Plains Conference, which does not have many traditional rivalries, but it will be exciting to compete against new programs,” said the Mustangs’ Cohen. Lutheran is the No. 1-ranked in the preseason CHSAANow.com poll and Hubbard brings a wealth of playoff experience with him from Faith Christian. “There are no teams on the 2014 schedule that the Lions have ever faced previously so there will be many new challenges this season,” said Hubbard.
“We feel the Denver market remains a establish themselves in the community for strong, viable area for minor league hockey, the years ahead. “The league would like to thank the Denand has an ownership group that is passionate about making it work,” said Steve Ryan, ver Cutthroats ownership, team management fans for their support, CHL Commissioner. “We are confident that Denver.CO.RRLgCmyk.STP_RoomPackage 8/20/14 9:48and AM their Pageloyal 1 with time, they will return to the ice and re- dedication and enthusiasm.”

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF AUG 25, 2014
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Despite your Aries penchant for wanting to tackle a problem head-on, you might want to take a little more time to see how a current situation develops. It could surprise you. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) TTaking on the role of peacemaker in a disruptive environment is a challenge. But you can do it. Just continue to have the same faith in yourself that so many others have in you. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Although your work schedule keeps you busy, you should make time to start preparing for that important upcoming family event you’ll want to celebrate in a special way.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Home is where the Moon Child wants to be early in the week. But by week’s end, a chance to travel raises her or his excitement level, and that of the lucky person who gets to go along. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Be careful not to be a copycat when dealing with someone who uses unfair or even unkind methods to reach a goal. As always, do the right thing the right way, and you’ll win in the end. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) An offer could have many good things attached to it that are not apparent at first glance, including a chance to move into another career area. You might want to check out its possibilities. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) With responsibilities surging both in the workplace and in the home, it’s important to prioritize how you deal with them. Be patient. Pressures will begin to ease starting early next week. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) A positive reaction to a suggestion could indicate that you’re on track for getting your message to the right people. Devote the weekend to catching up with the special people in your life. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) A new attitude from those in charge could make things difficult for you unless you can accept the changes without feeling as if you’re being pressured into doing so. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Family matters once again dominate much of the week. But don’t neglect your workplace duties while you deal with them. An offer to help could come from a surprising source. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) A difficult workplace situation begins to ease, but there still are matters that need to be dealt with before it’s fully resolved. There’s also a more positive turn in domestic relationships. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Don’t let yourself be rushed into making a decision about an intriguing financial arrangement. Asking questions and checking it out now could pay off in a big way later on. BORN THIS WEEK: You might have a tendency to be more than a bit judgmental, but others understand it comes from a warm, loving heart. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com McKenna Moede sometimes has trouble explaining the postflight twists and flips involved in her vaulting routine. She has even more trouble telling schoolmates for whom and where she competes as a high school gymnast. Moede, a senior at Legend, competes mainly in the vault and beam for the Ponderosa gymnastics team. Like all four south metro girls gymnastics teams, Ponderosa is a co-op squad with gymnasts coming from Ponderosa, Legend, Chaparral, Douglas County, Castle View and SkyView Academy. “We don’t get a lot of recognition,” said Moede. “A lot of people from my school don’t even know we have a gymnastics team. I have to explain we have to go to Ponderosa and they’re like, `oh, well, that’s kind of like a rival school.’ So we don’t get as much support as we’d like. Not a lot of people from our school come to our meets.” However, it is still fun for Moede to have a high school team on which to compete. “It’s a little different but it’s a lot of fun, meeting a lot of girls from different schools,” she said. “It’s fun to come to practice and see a lot of new faces, get to go to meets together. It’s hard not to see them at school but there are seven from my school going over to Ponderosa. It’s fun to see them in the halls and drive over together. “They do include us at Legend when we have pep assemblies and it’s nice to be in them. When we have state meets, we get out of school early and we are recognized in the announcements.” Ponderosa was 10th at last year’s state meet. The team’s top returning gymnasts are seniors Cara Redalen and Moede. Both are three-time state qualifiers. Redalen was one of Ponderosa’ top floor exercise scorers all last season while Moede is a standout on the beam and vault. Junior Katie Steward was the Mustangs top all-around performer a year ago. “Our skill level is the highest we have had in 10 years,” said Ponderosa coach Lisa Fischer. “A talented sophomore class, led by Jordyn Miller and Calista Hill, is coming in seasoned with a year of high school competition under their belts and they are driven. … Our freshmen will be key contributors to the varsity this season. Our strongest events will be bars and floor.” Cherry Creek draws gymnasts from three schools including Grandview and Smoky Hill. The Bruins were third in the state meet last season but have two state runner-up finishes and two regional titles in the last four seasons. Cheri Way Steffes, a former Alabama All-American and University of Denver assistant, is the new Creek coach and has liked what she has seen early this season. “We have looked great,” said Steffes. “I’m going to stay positive. It’s my first year. I have been watching Creek gymnastics for 20 years, back in the days when I started coaching in Colorado.” Seniors Alaina Bolton, Rachel Wong and Mya Dodd, who attend Creek, and Grandview senior Elise Shalowitz will be the ringleaders for this year’s Bruins. Junior Avery Paxton and sophomore Katie Mancini return from last season and the Bruins also will have transfers, sophomore Lauren Walker and freshman Samantha Simon, on the team. “We have a lot of unsung heroes behind that lineup,” said Steffes. Rock Canyon draws gymnasts from Mountain Vista, Rock Canyon, Highlands Ranch and ThunderRidge. Last season three Jaguars qualified individually for the state meet. Second-year head coach Vickie Frenzer will have a team led by all-around senior captains Kayti Conger and Taylor Krason. Sophomore Natalie Smith is expected to be a standout as a floor specialist along with Mikayla Valentine on the beam. “Our numbers have increased dramatically from last year, allowing us to have both JV and varsity rosters which is very exciting for the program,” said Frenzer. “Rock Canyon has a strong, young team and I am excited to watch (the girls) continue to grow as young women and athletes through the upcoming season. They have a lot of talent and I can’t wait to see what they do with it.” At Heritage, first-year coach Megan Kling has five returning gymnasts and the Eagles, with student athletes coming from mainly Heritage, Arapahoe and Littleton, will also compete with a junior varsity team as well as a varsity at some meets this season. “The program is small but we always have girls with huge goals and great attitudes,” said Kling. “The girls drive me to always make the program bigger and better.”
