Parks district seeking tax hike
GOING WITH THE FLOW
10-year increase would go to general operating expenses By Jennifer Smith

Heavy rains swelled the flow in the High Line Canal, transforming the traditional water jump into a thigh-deep wade through rushing water at the Aug. 29 Warrior Invitational at deKoevend Park. Runners from more than 50 schools overcame the water and muddy slopes to run in the meet. For more on the event, go to page 19. Photo by Tom Munds
Longtime artist’s work on display at Koelbel Blosten incorporates objects into her creations By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com “I incorporate as many different objects as possible in my artworks, from jewelry to wood, metal, fabric, paper and natural elements …,” Susan Beardsley Blosten writes in her artist statement. Some of her works are set for exhibit in September at Koelbel Library in Centennial. “Arte Povera” means art of the poor, and it describes an art movement in Italy in the 1970s that influenced Susan Blosten to create Blosten eclectic mixed media artworks with found objects. Before she discovered this approach, she speaks of growing up the oldest of seven in a historic house, built in 1792 on Philadelphia’s Main Line. Her grandmother, mother, brothers and sister attended various art schools from Slade School in London to Rhode Island School of Design to Art Institute of San Francisco. “They are talented artists. I never had confidence to purchase expensive art supplies so I began to buy paintings on canvas. Some I painted over ... On some I added various found objects.” “On Sundays, we would pile into the car and find abandoned houses. Some were really old.”
IF YOU GO “Urban and Folk Tales,” art by Susan Blosten, is being exhibited at Koelbel Library, 5955 S. Holly St., Centennial, through Sept. 30. Hours: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. MondaysThursdays; 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays; 1-5 p.m. Sundays.
She loved art history. Her college major was in English/ liberal arts at Penn State and she created one painting in the 1960s, then took some classes at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, where they drew pictures of sculptures. That failed to engage her imagination. After moving to Denver, she took classes at the Denver Art Students League with Gary Paul, who led students through alleys seeking materials and taught them to assemble them. “I sometimes have obscure reasons for putting things where I do,” she continues, showing a new painting. “That figure of Napoleon was just the right size.” (It was cut from a magazine and added in collage technique.) He looks like he’s about to walk into a French shop. The thin little picture of tiles at the shop’s entry was also just right as to size and perspective …” She works on several pieces at a time and some have taken years. “I just keep adding…” She especially mentions “Bruja de Cordove,” which will be in her show: It is the story of an imprisoned crone who drew a picture of a crow in her jail cell. The crow came alive, broke out of the cell’s window and flew the bruja to freedom. “Art is liberating.”

The South Suburban Parks and Recreation District Board of Directors voted unanimously on Aug. 27 to ask voters to approve a tax hike of two mills. “We’ve cut, we’ve tightened up, we’ve delayed maintenance, we’ve delayed some projects and really worked on what our priorities are,” said John Ostermiller, board chair. “We’re coming to the end of our rope. We’re a very well-managed district. … We offer a lot of benefits to the public, and I think the public expects us to keep doing that.” This November’s Ballot Issue 4A will ask for a property-tax hike of two mills for 10 years — about $16 per $100,000 of a home’s value per year — resulting in about $4.5 million annually in additional revenues for the district to be used for general operating expenses. Priorities include protecting the trails, maintaining parks, installing energysaving systems and replacing aging and inefficient irrigation systems. In May, a citizens’ committee strongly recommended the step, and actually suggested the district also pursue a bond issue. “The mill levy should be for maintenance concerns, with no restrictions, and the bond issue should be for capital improvements that are proposed by the other … subcommittees,” reads the group’s final report. “Project selection criteria should emphasize profitability.” The committee found that aging assets and higher staffing expenses have resulted in budget shortfalls. The 2014 budget summary notes the district doesn’t have enough money to maintain what it already has, let alone to upgrade current facilities. However, in the 46 pages prior to that one in the 49-page report, there are a lot of needs identified, including for a new regional park and field house. The committee recommends that in addition to holding an election, the district should work to find other ways to increase revenue, including such things as legacy donations, public/private partnerships and specific project-driven donation campaigns. Board member Scott LaBrash said he felt like a 21-year-old asking his dad for money. “It’s been a big battle for me,” he said. “To me it’s very personal, and it’s conflicting for me to ask for more money. But I think it’s selfish not to let the voters decide. But I feel like we’re kicking the can down the road. If we get more money, we’re going to get used to more money.” Board member Sue Rosser noted that for the price of about four movie tickets per household, they can ensure the district’s health for the next generation. “When you look at your child who’s asking for money, if they’re working and doing a good job and not sitting on the sofa watching TV, you’re more likely to want to help them,” Election continues on Page 10

The story of rest is the rest of the story It’s 7:20 p.m. and Sean is bent over physics homework, graphs that show position and velocity in relation to time. Motion maps. The work isn’t particularly difficult for him. The challenge is staying focused. “The more I think,” he says, “the more irritated I feel.” Sean is my 17-year-old son. He’s a high school senior and a good student. But he’s tired. If you ask him what he looks forward to on weekends, he’ll give you the same answer many teens do: Sleeping. No wonder. Instead of the eight-and-a-half to nineand-a-half hours of sleep research has found teens need to perform at their best, Sean averages six to seven each night. Even though he sometimes slips into bed at 9:30 or 10, he usually can’t fall asleep until 11, and he’s at school most mornings by 5:45 for weight sessions with his baseball team. Classes begin at 7:35. We are a tired country. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has called insufficient sleep a public health epidemic, noting in a 2009 study almost 38 percent of adults had unintentionally fallen asleep during the day at least once in the preceding month and nearly 5 percent had fallen asleep while driving at least once during the same time period. Scary. But not surprising. Like the one-third of adults in the study, I, too, consistently sleep less than the recommended seven hours a day and often find myself longing for just a few minutes in which to rest my eyes. The real calamity, though, is the sleep deprivation of our teenage children, who as a generation are losing the opportunity to achieve their highest potential, simply because they don’t have the few more hours needed to recharge. “Sleep is absolutely vital, not just from
a physical standpoint, but from a mental, emotional and cognitive standpoint,” says Steve Portenga, a performance psychologist who teaches at the University of Denver and helps athletes, surgeons and others in high-risk occupations perform consistently at their highest levels. A key element to that formula is sleep. Sean would agree. On days when he’s tired, “it’s hard to focus. I just catch myself spacing,” he says. But when he feels rested, “it’s easier to participate in class — you feel more in it. It’s easier to comprehend and retain information … I’m just more aware, in general.” Portenga talks about two studies that directly link sleep to performance. In the first, two groups of people were given 12 hours to solve a difficult problem. One group received the problem in the morning, so didn’t sleep before resolving it that evening. The other group received it in the evening, so had the opportunity to sleep before coming up with an answer. “Both had the same amount of time to solve it …” Portenga said, “but the ones who had a chance to sleep performed significantly better.” In the second study, electrodes were connected to the brains of mice as they figured out a way through a maze. As the mice slept, researchers noted the same series of connections firing as had occurred when they navigated the maze. The mice were replaying their route; the brain was moving information from short-term to
long-term memory, which makes retrieving information easier down the road. The study showed, Portenga says, that “for consolidating learning, sleep is a really vital process.” With that knowledge in mind, the American Academy of Pediatrics, saying the average American teen is “chronically sleep deprived and pathologically sleepy,” last week declared middle- and high-schoolers should begin their day at 8:30 a.m. at the earliest — essentially an hour later than most do now. Such a change would align with teens’ natural sleep cycles, which make it difficult for them — like Sean — to fall asleep before 11 p.m. And it would be key to helping “adolescents get the sleep they need to grow and learn.” According to a National Sleep Foundation poll, 87 percent of high school students and 59 percent of sixth- through eighth-graders were sleeping less than the recommended eight-and-a-half to nineand-a-half hours a night. Reasons range from sports, after-school activities, jobs and homework to over-active technology use. The academy’s policy statement noted lack of sleep in teens not only translates to a decrease in learning and poorer grades, but also to more physical and mental health problems and an increased risk of car accidents. Scary. But not surprising. Senior Craig Breuker can attest to the positive impact of a later starting time. His first class this semester starts with second period, which means he begins classes at 8:30. The difference from previous years is stark. “When I wake up, I just feel refreshed,” he says. “When I used to wake up at 6:30, I would always feel down and groggy. I haven’t had a morning where I feel like I want to go back to bed. When I get up, I’m ready for the day to start.”
He’s more focused. He has more energy later in the day. His eyes don’t get heavy. An A and B student, Craig practices soccer after school until 5:15, then mows lawns until dusk, then finally heads home to do homework. If there’s time, he’ll watch some TV until turning off the lights at about 10:30. Going to bed, he says, “is like a restart.” But considering only 15 percent of our country’s high schools begin the day at 8:30 or later, Craig’s sense of rested wellbeing belongs to a minority of teens. There is a long way to go. School district schedules are built around a complexity of ingredients, from bus schedules to athletics to extracurricular activities, and a realignment of all those pieces would need buy-in from not only school officials, but also from parents and teens, themselves. Until the paradigm shifts, until we are willing to take on the challenge — if we ever are — days for many teens will begin somewhat like this: 5 a.m. The first alarm goes off. Music blares. Sean reaches over and turns it off. 5:10 a.m. Music blares again. Unwilling to leave the warmth of his bed, Sean reaches over and sets a third alarm for 10 minutes later. 5:20 a.m. More music. Five more minutes tick by and his feet hit the floor. He throws on a T-shirt, some shorts, shoes. Brushes his teeth. Washes his face. He grabs a water bottle and heads out the door. It is still dark, the notion of sleep already forgotten. Ann Macari Healey’s column about people, places and issues of everyday life appears every other week.

Massive venue offers more than your typical restaurant By Jane Reuter jreuter@colorado communitymedia.com
The ViewHouse opened Aug. 29 in Centennial, leading into the public opening with an Aug. 28 sneak peek event that drew 800 people for an evening of complimentary drinks and food. The site was home for 30 years to the Trail Dust Steak House, which closed in 2009. Rhythms bar opened there in 2010, but closed after one year. The building was vacant until the ViewHouse’s owners bought it in 2013. No sign remains of the iconic red, barnlike structure that was the Trail Dust, though the ViewHouse used the rear portion of the original structure as part of its extensive remodel. The building that occupies the site now is sleek, with a dark roof and large glass panels that take advantage of the mountain vistas. The massive venue, which fronts In-
terstate 25 on Clinton Road, includes a large, ground-level bar with a 200-inch television — reportedly the largest in a Colorado restaurant or bar. A separate dining area on the same level that is devoid of televisions is designed to provide a quieter atmosphere. Two private dining rooms are also available. The outdoor patio has an 8,000-squarefoot courtyard with a net for volleyball or badminton and cornhole boards, cabana-style seating surrounding several water features, a stage and another bar. The restaurant’s second level includes a third large bar area and outdoor deck with mountain views. The Centennial ViewHouse plans to host weekly bands on its outdoor stage. It is the restaurant’s second location; the first is in downtown Denver. In contrast to the downtown site, the Centennial menu will include more upscale dining options. The widely varied menu includes flatbreads, pizza, salmon, ribeye, pork chops, bass, tacos, burgers, an extensive wine list and a selection of craft brews. Prices range from about $10 for a burger or taco to $28 for a 14-ounce ribeye. The ViewHouse is at 7101 S. Clinton Street.

SSPRD heightens sustainability Major effort set to start this month By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com The South Suburban Parks and Recreation District is gearing up to go green — in a big way. “It’s part of our strategic plan,” noted John Ostermiller, SSPRD board chair. “It’s a good deal for
the district. It allows us to get some much-needed improvements for energy savings in place. It’s just the tip of the iceberg, but it’s something we can do without really affecting our cash flow.” Board members agreed on Aug. 27 to enter into a $5.7 million contract with McKinstry Essention that, they say, will pay for itself in about 14 years. Buildings throughout the district will get LED lighting and computerized energy-manage-
ment systems, along with a slew of other improvements designed to cut costs in the long run. “Up-to-date, well-maintained, energy-efficient anything costs money,” reads a report from a citizens’ review panel released in May. “Threaded throughout all the recommendations is a need to fix, replace and upgrade, to take care of what’s already available and to make things better where there’s a desire by residents.”
Key to the plan is the purchase of 725 solar panels from the Clean Energy Collective for $630,000. Xcel Energy credits the energy the panels produce back to the owner. SSPRD’s will produce about 170,000 kilowatt-hours a year, paying for themselves in about seven years. Brett Collins, SSPRD’s director of planning, building infrastructure and construction, explained that those savings will go toward paying off the McKin-
Mascot bill would defer to Indian panels Proposal set for public meeting on Sept. 10 By Vic Vela
vvela@colorado communitymedia.com The debate over the use of American Indian mascots will come to the state Capitol next year. State Rep. Joe Salazar, D-Thornton, is expected to carry a bill that could result in schools losing their mascots — or even losing state funding. And the effort is sure to result in a vibrant public meeting on Salazar’s bill, which is scheduled for Sept. 10. Salazar said his bill would require schools that receive state funding and that wish to have Indian-themed mascots to first get the OK from representatives of American Indian communities. Salazar said the Colorado Commission of Indian Affairs could be in charge of making those decisions, or
perhaps another commission would be created by lawmakers, who return to the Capitol in January. If schools don’t go before an Indian commission, Salazar said his legislation would still allow the schools to continue to use their mascots — but at a steep price. “If they don’t want to reach out, they can use the mascot, but they don’t get state funding,” he said. “They are able to exercise their First Amendment rights, but as a state we don’t have to participate in their discriminatory conduct.” There is an ongoing national debate over the use of Indian-themed mascots, one that has centered on the NFL’s Washington Redskins. Opponents of Washington’s mascot want it done away with because they feel it is a derogatory term that is akin to any other racial slur. The debate has led some NFL announcers and news organizations to move away from using the term “Redskins.” Others blast the movement as po-
litical correctness gone too far and say that the mascots are not racist, but rather pay homage to American Indian culture and history. “They don’t get to make that justification,” Salazar said of that argument. “It’s the American Indian community that gets to decide if it’s racist to them. They can’t just say, `I don’t think it’s racist, so it’s not racist.’ You don’t get to decide.” The issue will be discussed at a public meeting that is scheduled to be held at the Denver Indian Family Resource Center, 4407 Morrison Road, from 4:30-7 p.m. on Sept. 10. There, Salazar will also talk about another piece of legislation that is of interest to the American Indian community — his revival of a bill that would allow out-of-state American Indian students to attend Colorado colleges at in-state tuition rates, so long as they have ties to Colorado tribes. That legislation died in a committee hearing earlier this year.

in another $215,000 or so. McKinstry guarantees the amount it says SSPRD will save after the work is completed, and pays any difference. It also absorbs any budget overruns. Work is expected to start this month and wrap up by the end of 2015.

vvela@colorado communitymedia.com Locked in a tight re-election campaign, U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman on Aug. 26 released his first television ad, targeted at a demographic that will be crucial in determining whether he keeps his seat. The ad aims to appeal to women voters by touting Coffman’s congressional record on issues like sexual assault reform in the military and gender discrimination in health insurance pricing. But Democrats, especially Andrew Romanoff, Coffman’s opponent in this fall’s 6th Congressional District race, hope voters see the ad for what they believe it is — an effort to “whitewash” a voting record that has fallen short of championing women’s equality. The 30-second spot features a female narrator touting Coffman’s own Marine background while lauding his work on an amendment to a defense budget bill that deals with sexual assaults in the military. The ad also points out Coffman’s
support of Congress’ renewal of the Violence Against Women Act, and his work on legislation in the Colorado General Assembly to prevent women from having to pay more than men for health insurance. “When I served in the state Legislature, I worked with members of both parties to ban gender discrimination in health insurance pricing and ensure that women could not be charged more than men,” Coffman said through an emailed statement. But the Romanoff campaign was quick to attack Coffman’s ad as a “brazen attempt” to hide his actual voting record on women’s issues. The campaign rattled off a laundry list of Coffman’s positions on women’s issues, including his past support of the so-called “personhood” amendment, which would essentially ban abortions. Coffman said in a recent debate that he does not support personhood. The Romanoff campaign also attacked Coffman for his votes against the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, which sought to help women address income inequality. The Romanoff team also slammed Coffman for his support of a bill that sought to narrow the definition of rape. “It’s what the congressman is doing in Washington — not just what he’s saying in Colorado — that mat-
ters,” said Romanoff spokeswoman Denise Baron, through an emailed statement. Women voters overwhelmingly vote Democratic, and Coffman needs to peel off some of Romanoff’s support among women if he’s going to win re-election. The battle for CD6 — which was redistricted after the 2010 census to include a more culturally diverse group of voters — will be the most closely watched House race in the country. “In a way it’s flattering,” said Democratic strategist Laura Chapin, when asked for her reaction to Coffman’s ad. “It speaks to the strength of Colorado women voters, and all the candidates are speaking to us this year. “But I find it interesting that after 20 years of not caring about women, Mike Coffman all of the sudden cares.” Laura Carno, a conservative political strategist, acknowledges that Republicans need to do a better job of reaching out to women voters, but said that’s achieved through economic policy stances instead of through “social issues.” “They look at it very narrowly,” Carno said of Democrats. “As if women wake up every morning thinking, `Oh my goodness, how is the government going to help me get birth control?’”

E-470 traffic grows at speedy pace Officials planning for next 5-10 years By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com An increasing number of motorists on E-470 has tolling-authority officials considering ways to brace for the future. E-470 has so far tallied a 12 percent jump in users over last year and consistently set daily records in July, including a single day in which 248,000 transactions were made. The figures are defying expectations and putting into motion initiatives aimed at getting a better look at what’s to come. The tolling authority — run by board members representing the eight jurisdictions that the highway passes through — is launching its first full traffic and revenue study since 2008 to “get a baseline on where things are going,” said John McCuskey, executive director of E-470. Research will focus on everything from highway efficiency during peak traffic hours to the economic development taking place along the corridor. The Parker Road interchange, in particular, has caught the attention of those who oversee day-to-day operations on the highway. In Cottonwood just to the north, King Soopers is coming back with its marketplace concept, and there are plans to develop the land directly to the east for Vantage Point, which will contain 900 apartments and a handful of retail businesses. A senior living facility and Boondocks Family Fun
Center will also open near E-470 and South Parker Road, and McCuskey expects all of the development to have a positive effect on the highway. Likewise, the Compark area near E-470 and Chambers Road has seen the arrival of manufacturers, retail outlets and medical companies in the last few years. The stretch of E-470 between Interstate 25 and South Parker Road is the most heavily traveled. “The growth we’ve seen down there has just been tremendous,” McCuskey said. National chains have taken a close look at repurposing the old toll plazas into gas stations or coffee shops, but they “want more traffic than what we have right now,” he said, adding that the vacant huts will be reused eventually. The 2008 traffic and revenue study said the southern portion of the road would need to be widened by one lane in each direction by 2018, but the timeline for construction remains fluid and will be determined by the results of the newest study. “The widening will be expensive, but it will be needed,” McCuskey said. However, users shouldn’t expect a sudden rise in tolling fees. The toll schedule will remain on a trajectory for annual increases totaling 25 cents every three years. The highway authority is planning to use existing funds for the widening. The revenue portion of the study will get E-470 into a position where it can start to “level off” the $1.8 billion worth of debt remaining from the original construction of the tollway, McCuskey said. “We need to make sure that our revenue profile fits that increasing debt profile, which is why we’ve had increases,” he said.

Proper peer pressure promotes performance Sometimes just the words “peer pressure” spark anxious, judgmental, and negative feelings. Especially when we attach verbs such as “succumbing to” or “giving in to” peer pressure. And many times we direct our guidance of avoiding peer pressure to the young adults, teenagers and children in our lives. No doubt there are more temptations and access to trouble now than in any previous generation. So our advice and steering to avoid peer pressure has never been more valuable, as long as it doesn’t fall on deaf ears or comes across as, “Well when I was your age …,” because that never goes well. Or if it sounds overplayed like, “If all of your friends jumped off of the top of the mountain would you follow too?” Yikes! Avoiding peer pressure can be turned from a negative to a positive as we encourage those that look up to us with confidence boosters and nurturing self-esteem building words and actions. You know how it goes, when we tell or ask someone not to do something, especially our youth, what do they do? Exactly what we told them or asked them not to do. Having open dialogues can be revealing about previous errors in judgment or examples where peers may have misled us, or perhaps we were the peer misleading others. As my friend Bert reminded me last week, sometimes when we think we are following, we could actually also be in a position of leading all of those who are following us too. Another awesome and positive side of peer pressure is playing itself out right now
before our very eyes, ears, and through our contributions. I am talking about the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. If you haven’t seen this yet or heard of it, the challenge has gone absolutely viral. People have been challenged to fill a bucket with water and ice and then dump the bucket over their head or have a family member or friend participate and tip the ice-filled bucket onto their head. Then each participant that has accepted the challenge gets to challenge others in their circle of friends, associates, or family to take the same challenge. Now if they don’t take the challenge and want to avoid the fleeting moment of freezing water spilling over their head and body, they can elect to make a donation to ALS. And in some cases I know people that have done both, accepted the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge and also made a nice financial contribution to ALS. And it’s not just ALS, just look at all the fundraisers for breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, SMA, diabetes, and so many others and include events like 5K runs, walks, auctions, golf tournaments where we sign
up to sponsor runners, walkers, golfers, and place our names on those silent auction sheets, all for the greater good. And you know how it goes, sometimes we are on the fence of whether or not we will participate or sponsor someone, and then one of our friends, one of our peers does it and before we know it we have jumped in as well. And that is just incredible. Peer pressure in business is also extremely positive. There is nothing better than some healthy and friendly competition. As a salesman I was always interested in how well my peers were doing. I used their productivity as a motivator to try and beat them the next day, week, or month. And it went both ways, my lifelong friend and fellow salesman would always contact me just to see what I sold that day so we could compete the following day. So the next time we feel like cringing when we hear the words “peer pressure,” just remember it can absolutely be leveraged as a positive influence in our lives and not always a negative. How about you? Have you had a positive experience with peer pressure? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we focus on the positive peer pressure in our lives it really will be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.
Construction zone is no peaceful lane They are working on Quebec Street. I have some thoughts. I would aggressively avoid the area if you have had more than one cup of coffee. If you have spent a couple of hours at Lodo’s and go south on Quebec, prepare yourself for community service. In all my born days — as my grandmother used to say — I have never seen such a convolution of cones, barrels and arrows on a roadway. You will start on the right and then you will be expected to move to the left, back to the right. Lanes disappear. The cones get closer and closer together. Do you know who M.C. Escher is? He would have loved all of this. Take a look at “Rhythm of Illusion.” That’s exactly what Quebec is right now. This figures: The name “Quebec” comes from an Algonquin word meaning “where the river narrows.” I didn’t know that construction was going on and I made the mistake of trying to get to King Soopers at midnight simply to
pick up a noodle salad. I still don’t know how I managed to get anywhere near the store. I wanted to make a left and couldn’t. There was a guy using a jackhammer and right next to him was a worker who shouted something at me. I guess he thought I have some kind of metaphysical ability to hear something being said next to a jackhammer. And Smitty was barking his brains out. I eventually figured out that no left turn could be made, so I took a right on Park Meadows Drive and went through parts of
Lone Tree that I didn’t know existed. The good news is that I can avoid Quebec. Some of you can’t. It must be a nightmare on the way to work. We experience virtual Quebecs throughout our lives. I had to take one last nonmajor class in order to graduate on time. Outside of my major I was a zombie in Chuck Taylors. I was lost, blocked and confounded. A good friend of mine went through a divorce and her updates sounded exactly like those cones, barrels and arrows — nothing but wickets and anxiety, mixed in with residual anger and frustration. In a month or two the cones will be gone and it might be hard to remember any of this. And that’s another thing that happens to us all of the time. Of course, some of the frustrations we experience in life do not go away, and the cones remain. A relationship goes bad and never improves. I am not exactly sure what they are doMarshall continues on Page 9

Firefighters mark 60 years of Filling the Boot Staff report Fire chiefs from throughout the metro area came together in Centennial to mark 60 years of filling the boot for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Members of the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority and the Colorado Professional Fire Fighters, along with the Muscular Dystrophy Association, attended an event Aug. 29 at South Metro’s headquarters, 9195 E. Mineral Ave., to celebrate their 60-year partnership and kick off the fire fighters’ annual “Fill the Boot” fundraising campaign to benefit children and adults affected by muscle disease throughout Colorado. “Firefighters do more for MDA and the families we serve than any other group,” said Sabrina Allen, executive director MDA Rocky Mountain District. “In Colorado, they spend countless hours every year participating in Fill the Boot drives and at MDA Summer Camp. “We’re grateful for the support of these inspiring, selfless individuals who have made a profound impact on our families’ health, well-being and quality of life.”
More than 100 fire departments in Colorado were expected to fan out across the state with boots in hand over Labor Day weekend. Funds raised through the 2014 Fill the Boot events will help support MDA’s programs of worldwide research, specialized health care services, and day-today support — which includes sending children affected by muscular dystrophy and related diseases to a weeklong, barrierfree MDA summer camp at Easter Seal’s Rocky Mountain Village in Empire, CO. As the Muscular Dystrophy Association’s largest national sponsor, the International Association of Fire Fighters fuels MDA’s mission to find treatments and cures for life-threatening muscle diseases. In 2013, more than 100,000 firefighters participated in Fill the Boot events across the country and raised $26.2 million. To date the IAFF has raised $530 million for MDA. Guests included Colorado Professional Fire Fighters President Mike Rogers, Colorado Professional Fire Fighters Legislative and Political Affairs Coordinator Dennis Eulberg, South Metro Fire Chief Dan Qualman,

Memory markers make for walk to remember Highlands Ranch senior living community hosts Alzheimer’s awareness event By Christy Steadman csteadman@colorado communitymedia.com
One memory marker along the Walk to Remember path may ask a person what his favorite travel destination is and why. Another might be inquiring what a person’s dream job was when she was a child. The goal is to spark conversation and awareness of Alzheimer’s disease as people participate in the first Walk to Remember, a free event from 2-4 p.m. Sept. 14 at Vi at Highlands Ranch, a senior living community located at 2850 Classic Drive. The idea for the walk originated with a management development class, consisting of nine Vi employees. They dedicated their yearlong program to creating awareness and support for the millions of Ameri-
cans affected by Alzheimer’s. “As a senior living community, Alzheimer’s is something that affects our residents and their families,” a spokeswoman for the class said, “and most of the staff knows someone affected by it.” The Walk to Remember follows a gently sloping, paved path on landscaped grounds, part of the community’s 25 acres. The walk is estimated to take about 30 to 45 minutes. Attendees can walk at their leisure, as there is no start or stop time. Memory markers are there to engage walkers and encourage families and friends to stop along the way and have discussions, the spokeswoman said. People also may browse information booths, and there will be lawn games for adults and children, plus face painting and balloon animals. Snow cones and a barbecue-style meal will be served. Entertainment will feature live music performed by Blue Stone Mojo, a blues/jazz/rock-and-roll band. Attendees must park at the St. Andrew United Methodist Church parking lot, 9203
S. University Blvd., as parking is not available at Vi. The church is providing free parking, and attendees may walk or take a free shuttle to the adjacent community. Attendees must R.S.V.P. by Sept. 7, either online or by calling 720-348-7840. Donations are encouraged and all proceeds will benefit the Colorado Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association. The date was chosen because it is a couple weeks prior to the major, annual Al-
zheimer’s walk in Denver, the spokeswoman said. The 2014 Walk to End Alzheimer’s, a 5K that takes place at Denver City Park, happens Sept. 20. The Walk to Remember, the spokeswoman said, is to provide the “Highlands Ranch community with a fun, family-oriented walk that will encourage loved ones to make and share memories, while they learn about Alzheimer’s disease and raise funds to defeat it.”
Carjacking suspect deemed competent for trial Staff report Ryan Cole Stone was deemed competent to stand trial during an Aug. 28 status conference held at the Douglas County Justice Center in Castle Rock. Stone is charged in connection with a multi-county, high-speed March 12 chase that ended at about 8:15 a.m. when Stone allegedly crashed a stolen silver sedan at Lincoln Avenue and Peoria Street. The morning rush-hour chase started in Longmont after, police say, Stone stole an SUV with a 4-year-old boy in it, then

ing on Quebec, but I am guessing they are improving it. Some relationships go from bad to worse, and no one comes out in hard hats to make them better. I have burned more bridges than I can count, and most of them are irreparable. I think to myself that they are better off without me, and I am better off without them. Friendships take work — and time. I am down to less than a handful, and I am accomplishing more than I ever have be-
carjacked two other vehicles before crashing in Douglas County. During the chase, Stone struck and injured a Colorado State Patrol trooper. Stone, who is in custody, appeared with council. Two competency evaluations were presented to the court - one from the defense’s doctor and one from the state. The court accepted the recommendation of both, finding Stone competent to proceed. The defense did not object. A preliminary hearing for Stone is set for 2 p.m. Oct. 2 at the justice center.
fore. That’s what I tell myself: I am getting more done, but it’s meant that I have disconnected myself more and more from the human race. There won’t be many “great guy” quotes in my obituary. There is roadway construction all over the place, in every town (have you ever been to Detroit?). And, sure, it’s a pain in the neck. But. I thought about Amy Van Dyken. She might say, “It’s not that bad, Craig, and it won’t last forever, will it?” Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

Overall school funding grows under new law Two measures affect range of services, facilities By Vic Vela

As school starts, lawmakers are touting an education law passed this year that many believe will help students achieve greater success. Earlier this year, the Legislature passed a pair of school funding measures that Gov. John Hickenlooper later signed into law to increase spending within the state’s school finance system by $500 million. The money provides more funding for several areas of K-12 education, including school construction, preschool, kindergarten and English language learner programs. The measures increase per-pupil spending by about 5 percent and allow schools across the state to open up 5,000 more seats for preschool and full-day kindergarten. An additional $3 million will fund financial transparency efforts that are aimed at allowing taxpayers to see how the new money is being reported and spent. “It’s important to make sure we know where the money is going to these schools, and not seeing it go into a black hole somewhere,” said Rep. Frank McNulty, R-Highlands
Ranch. About $20 million goes into a program that helps third-graders read, while $53 million will be set aside for school construction — most of that coming in the form of Amendment 64-based retail marijuana revenue, which will help in the construction of schools in rural areas. “These investments will not only pay dividends in individual lives, but will also help build a stronger economic foundation for Colorado,” said Sen. Andy Kerr, D-Lakewood, who is the chairman of the Senate Education Committee. Lawmakers also restored $110 million in education funding that had been stripped as a result of recessionera budget cuts. Those “negative factor” cuts had slashed about $1 billion from the state’s K-12 budget. Schools will also see an increase in the number of counselors at middle and high schools, in an effort to lower the current student-to-counselor ratio, which Senate Democrats say was at 400-1 prior to the legislation being passed. “When students are focused on their studies and have a graduation plan, they excel,” said Sen. Rachel Zenzinger, D-Arvada, who sponsored legislation to increase the number of guidance counselors. The school funding pieces received the support of all Democrats and some Republicans, including
outgoing Rep. Carole Murray, R-Castle Rock, who co-sponsored the Student Success Act, a major component of the school finance measures. “It’s a tribute to the importance of education to the legislators in this state that we maximized our increase to (education) this year,” Murray said. “As we’re coming out of the recession, we had some tough decisions to make.” Among those tough decisions was factoring in how much say local school boards have in determining how they allocate monies for their own districts. Many Republicans wanted to see school districts have more autonomy in determining how the cash infusion is being spent, rather than an acrossthe-board system that the state controls. Rep. Chris Holbert, R-Parker, said the school funding measures could have done more to respect school districts’ abilities to spend the money as they see fit. “The vast majority of the 178 school boards in the state wanted us to restore the negative factor with no strings attached,” said Rep. Chris Holbert, R-Parker. “But the Student Success Act was a Christmas tree of new mandates for school districts.” “School districts said to us, `No, you give us as much of the negative factor funding as you owe us and do not give us any new mandates.’”

With no scheduled commercial airline service, Centennial Airport’s primary source of traffic is made up of corporate charter and private business jet service. The airport, located just minutes down the road from the BMW Championship at the Cherry Hills Country Club, expects to see an additional 40 to 50 jets on the ramp during the professional golf tournament, which concludes on Sept. 7.

Centennial Airport gets tourney traffic Staff report Big events in the Denver metro area bring a rise in activity to Centennial Airport, and this week’s BMW Championship is no different. One of the most important professional golf tournaments of the year is being played at the Cherry Hills Country Club, not far down the road from the third-busiest general aviation airport in the nation. A mix of superstar golfers, sponsors, spectators and media were expected to touch down for the Sept. 4-7 competition. The BMW Championship is the second-to-last leg of

Private jet travel offers greater convenience and a higher level of amenities, making Centennial a draw, the spokeswoman said. So who are some of the stars who flew into the airport for the BMW this week? Well, confidentiality is another of the airport’s perks.

Mixed signals frustrate foes of death penalty Governor’s view on capital punishment was kept close to vest By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Key Democratic lawmakers were frustrated with Gov. John Hickenlooper’s guidance last year on a death penalty repeal bill and now feel that there was an opportunity lost, given that Hickenlooper’s stance against capital punishment is now known. At the same time, Democrats believe that the governor’s “wrestling” on the issue was sincere and hold no resentment toward him for his limited involvement during the legislative process. A sponsor of a bill that sought to end capital punishment in Colorado believes that the repeal effort would have passed had Hickenlooper come around on his anti-death penalty position sooner. Hickenlooper — who had campaigned as a supporter of the death penalty in 2010 — acknowledged in an interview with KDVR-TV in August that his position has evolved over the years and that he now opposes capital punishment. But Hickenlooper wasn’t prepared to talk about those views in 2013, when Democrats were crafting a death penalty repeal bill. Former Rep. Claire Levy, D-Boulder,
a sponsor of the bill, said her effort was a “challenge” because of Hickenlooper’s lack of guidance on the legislation. “It did it make it difficult for lawmakers who felt they may be vulnerable for repealing the death penalty; difficult to make to make a commitment to me knowing the bill could be vetoed,” Levy said. Levy said she had several conversations with Hickenlooper about the bill, but it wasn’t until just before the legislation was up for a committee hearing that he suggested that might veto. The bill died in the House Judiciary Committee on March 26, after the governor’s feelings on the legislation became known. “If (Hickenlooper) had arrived at his position earlier, we would have all benefited because we would have known what to do,” said Rep. Daniel Kagan, D-Cherry Hills Village, the committee chairman who is against capital punishment. “He was wrestling, no question about it.” The repeal bill had Republican support as well, with Adams County Rep. Kevin Priola’s name appearing on the legislation. Priola had hoped the bill would also spark a conversation on abortion, which he opposes. “I wanted to have a discussion on state policy on the sanctity of life,” he said. “The state of Colorado needs to have a discussion of being pro-life in every way.” With Priola’s support and the support of religious groups, Levy said she was op-
timistic about the bill’s chances of clearing the General Assembly, had Hickenlooper provided his support. “We really did have a unique opportunity,” she said.
CNN interview surfaces While there was frustration with Hickenlooper over his role in the death penalty repeal bill, Democrats say they respected the governor’s decision-making process. “While I really wanted a firm yes or no, I understand completely why he was not able to do that for us,” Levy said. “And I think the reason he couldn’t is really what he’s been saying publicly all along and that he’s really been wrestling with this issue.” The death penalty issue made headlines again recently after a newly surfaced CNN interview from November became public. In the interview, Hickenlooper told a reporter that clemency for death row inmate Nathan Dunlap could still be on the table. Hickenlooper granted Dunlap an indefinite reprieve in May 2013. Hickenlooper’s campaign said that in the CNN interview, the governor was responding to a hypothetical question, and that Dunlap — who killed four people at an Aurora Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant in 1993 — will die in prison. Even though Kagan would have liked to have seen Hickenlooper support last year’s death penalty repeal, he was OK with how the governor handled the Dunlap situation.
Sierra Trading Post Opens First Colorado Location Move over REI, there’s a new game in town. Approximately 600 people attended the grand opening and ribbon cutting held by Sierra Trading Post, an outlet store specializing in outdoor gear, on Thursday, August 28. The event marked the Wyoming-based company’s first entry into the Colorado market; a Fort Collins location is expected to open shortly. Bargain hunters camped outside the facility with lines wrapping around the building,
hoping to win door prizes and purchase discounted outdoor gear. Prizes included gift cards, discount cards, reusable bags, and a chance to win a trip to Jackson Hole, WY. “[There were] flocks of people wrapped around the corner of the building, even some campers first in line with sleeping bags and a heater,” said attendee Aubrey Allmond. The ceremony began with remarks by Robert Golden, president/CEO of the South Metro
Pictured from left: Mayor of Greenwood Village Ron Rakowsky; Brent Layton, assistant VP of retail operations, store manager John Williams, and Gary Imig, president of Sierra Trading Post.
Denver Chamber, who welcomed the company to Colorado and the South Metro Denver Chamber, and introduced Gary Imig, president of Sierra Trading Post. Imig said, “We’re thrilled to open our newest retail store in South Denver. We want shopping with us in the store to be as convenient as shopping with us online, and we’re leveraging some of the newest technology to make that happen for our South Denver customers.” Mayor of Greenwood Village Ron Rakowsky also shared a welcome on behalf of the city. The ribbon cutting was followed by a $5,000 donation presentation by Sierra Trading Post to the Thorne Nature Experience, whose mission is to build Earth stewardship by connecting youth to nature through joyful, hands-on, placebased environmental education experiences. The event’s attendees included several City of Greenwood Village councilmembers, as well as Sierra Trading Post executive staff. Following the ribbon cutting, eager shoppers filed into the outlet to capitalize on overstock, closeout, and minimally blemished name brand merchandise.

HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Littleton Ice Bucket Challenge HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Littleton challenged other local healthcare organizations and accepted the challenge from sister hospital HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Colorado Springs to take the “Ice Bucket Challenge” to raise money and awareness for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. More than 100 HealthSouth Littleton staff members, patients and supporters gathered on the front lawn of the hospital, located at 1001 W. Mineral Ave., on Friday, Aug. 22 at 11:00 a.m. and doused themselves with ice cold water. A barbecue lunch was provided to those who made a donation to the Rocky Mountain Chapter of the ALS Association which supports local individuals who have ALS through
support, research and advocacy. Representation from the organization was present at the event. “The Ice Bucket Challenge is a great way to highlight the care that is provided to those with neurological conditions, including ALS, at our hospital and in the community,” says David Shefte, CEO of HealthSouth Littleton. “We hope our peers in the healthcare field will join us in raising awareness and have a little fun at the same time.” ALS is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. It causes muscle weakness especially in the arms and legs and affects one’s ability to speak, swallow and breathe. HealthSouth Littleton provides customized
therapy plans for those battling ALS which may include physical, occupational and speech therapies. HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Littleton HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Littleton is a 40-bed inpatient rehabilitation hospital that offers comprehensive inpatient rehabilitation services. Serving patients throughout the Denver metro area, the hospital is located at 1001 W. Mineral Ave. in Littleton and on the Web at www.healthsouthlittleton.com. About HealthSouth HealthSouth is the nation’s largest owner and operator of inpatient rehabilitation hospitals in terms of patients treated and
“I respect the position he arrived at in the end,” Kagan said. “He said he’s not going to decide for an entire state on this issue, instead he said, `I cannot, in good conscience, be the one to sign the death warrant.’” But Republicans have blasted Hickenlooper over his evolution on the death penalty and for his “indecision and weak leadership” on the issue. “On my watch, justice will carried out, the laws of the state of Colorado will be enforced and I will never turn my back on the victims,” said former Congressman Bob Beauprez, who is running against Hickenlooper in this fall’s gubernatorial election. Rep. Mark Waller, R-Colorado Springs, a former House minority leader, said the death penalty is just one example where Hickenlooper has been hesitant to “weigh in on legislation unless he absolutely has to.” “He never lets you know what his position is,” Waller said. “It’s like he lets the issue lead him.” But Democrats, for all their frustrations, say Hickenlooper’s “thoughtful” approach to painful, moral decisions on issues like the death penalty is better than the alternative. “When somebody is so completely glib and saying, `Oh, I would put someone to death if I were in charge,’ that reflects to me a lack of depth, a lack of appreciation of the enormity of the decision you’re making,” Levy said.

Oldest residential area in Denver dates to 1870s
`Uncorked’ fall series opens
By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com Located just seven blocks from Denver’s 16th Street Mall, the historic Curtis Park neighborhood is Denver’s oldest. A Home and Community Tour on Sept. 1314 will offer visits to 15 of the more than 500 historically significant Curtis Park homes protected by Denver Landmark Preservation status and serve as a fundraiser for Curtis Park Neighbors Inc. When the railroad arrived in 1870, Denver’s population boomed and population increased 700 percent by 1880 — to 35,000. In 1871, the first horse-drawn streetcar system started at Seventh and Larimer streets, turned on Champa Street at 16th Street and went out Champa as far as 27th Street, then undeveloped. Soon there was a mix of mansions and more modest middle-class homes in a variety of architectural styles, including Queen Anne, Italianate and Second Empire. Residents included department store owner John Jay Joslin and Mayor Wolfe Londoner as well as clerks, bankers, teachers and blacksmiths. In subsequent years, the neighborhood became one of the city’s poorest, with most large homes carved up into small units and neglected until the area was rediscovered in the 1970s. This neighborhood now contains eight landmark districts and has many residences on the National Register of Historic Places. Among the landmarked homes is the Italianate cottage at 2826 Curtis St., known as the West Residence — probably designed by Orlando Scobey, listed as residing there in 1883-84. It shares another part of Denver’s history in that it housed two successive Japanese-American owners in the period after Pearl Harbor in 1941. Colorado Gov. Ralph Carr had expressed sympathy for these families displaced and ordered to relocation camps. Some moved to Denver hoping to be welcomed by local residents — which was not widely the case, at a time of widely spoken anti-Japanese rhetoric. Five Points was a home for others not welcome elsewhere in Denver. (The present owner has designed the garden except for a large blue spruce.)
The 16th Street Mall has long been a thorn in the side of Denver dwellers who don’t shop at souvenir stores, don’t care to inhale secondhand smoke and don’t want to sign petitions. But now the Downtown Denver Business Improvement District is installing Patio 16, an outdoor dining area in the median of the carless street between California and Stout streets. Patio 16 opened on Aug. 28 and will offer outdoor seating, enclosed patio railings, a variety of menu options from six local vendors and an outdoor respite for the downtown Denver community to gather, dine and unwind. Patio 16 provides a family-friendly area staffed during hours of operation to ensure a safe, clean and friendly experience, which is open to all residents, employees and visitors. For more information, visit www.downtowndenver.com/about-the-bid.
ABOVE: The Italianate West Residence at 2826 Curtis St. in the Curtis Park historic neighborhood is included in the Sept. 13 and 14 home tour. BELOW: The Queen Anne style Hayden-Pryor Residence at 2418 Champa is also included in the tour. Also open for the tour is the HaydenPryor residence at 2418 Champa St., an example of Queen Anne style, dated 1886. It is said to parallel Curtis Park history. It was built by Marks Amter, who borrowed $6,000 to build it and lost it to the bank in 1893, the year of the silver crash and ensuing depression, which affected the state. It was carved into nine units with only three bathrooms to serve many residents — perhaps as many as 27. It was also included in 1956 B-8 (business) zoning by the Denver City Council, when 88 neighboring homes were torn down. This one survived and is now protected by historic designation. Other residences will be open and visitors can get a sense of the area’s colorful history. Advance tickets are available through Historic Denver, historicdenver.org, and at the MatthewsGotthelf Mansion, 2601 Champa St., on Sept. 13 and 14.
IF YOU GO The 2014 Historic Curtis Park Home and Community Tour is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sept. 13 and 14. Tickets cost $15/$12 Historic Denver members, and are available at historicdenver.org and on tour days at tour headquarters: the Matthews-Gotthelf Mansion, 2601 Champa St. (Information provided by resident/tour chairs Gerald Horner and Linda Dowlen.)
Started as a monthly event in 2010, “Fridays Uncorked” has grown into a weekly wine and music series that continues yeararound at Bonacquisiti Wine Company at 4640 Pecos St. in the Sunnyside neighborhood. The fall series opens Sept. 4, and the Sept. 19 “Uncorked” event will feature the band My Old School — A Tribute to the Music of Steely Dan. My Old School is the culmination of the efforts of 12 professional Denver musicians who feel an affinity to Steely Dan and the music that Walter Becker and Donald Fagen created by applying jazz to pop music. In addition to the September music lineup, winemaker and namesake Paul Bonacquisiti will be featuring three new wine releases, including a bold spicy Petite Sirah, which last year sold out to wine club members upon release, as well as a Barbera and the [d] Red, a blend of 80 percent Merlot, 10 percent Syrah and 10 percent Zinfandel. The [d] Red is named after Delagua, the coal camp in southern Colorado where Bonacquisti’s father was born. The [d] Red and Barbera releases will be available by the bottle and on tap at the winery in one-liter refillable growlers. Each event runs from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Admission is free and wine is available to purchase, as is food from a food truck that changes each week. Seating is limited, so guests are encouraged to bring a chair. The live music line-up through September includes: • Sept. 4 - Knight Groove • Sept. 12 - Heavy, Timbo and Deb • Sept. 19 - My Old School • Sept. 26 - The Hip Replacements For more information, visit www.bonacquistiwine.com.

The kitchen at Saucy Noodle Ristorante at 727 S. University Blvd. in the Bonnie Brae neighborhood cooks up more than 1,800 pounds of garlic every year, and it’s been serving it for 50 years this month — that’s well over 75,000 pounds of garlic. Erin Markham, the third generation of the Badis family who now operates the restaurant with her husband, Nathan, held a 50th birthday celebration on Aug. 29. The party included menu specials and special prices that evoked the early days of The Noodle: Large one-topping pizzas for $3.95 and spaghetti and meatballs for $4.95. Markham grew up at the restaurant, Parker continues on Page 18

Jazz orchestra gains new artistic director Lone Tree shows have grown in popularity By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Colorado Jazz Repertory Orchestra starts its third season with changes. Director Art Bouton, Lone Tree resident and professor of saxophone at the University of Denver’s Lamont School of Music, started the orchestra by calling on an ensemble of Colorado’s top jazz musicians to perform at the Lone Tree Arts Center. In season two, it built to sold-out audiences for the last two concerts. Bouton has formed Colorado Jazz Inc., a nonprofit corporation, to help bring the CJRO to national prominence and announced a new position of artistic director. He is “Grammy-nominated jazz artist and educator Steve Weist, a cutting-edge composer
and trombonist” who has recently joined the Lamont School as associate professor of jazz studies and commercial music, Bouton announced. Bouton said Weist “has spent seven years directing what is arguably one of the finest bands in the world, the University of North Texas One O’ Clock Lab Band. I just had to have him out front.” The CJRO will start its new season on Oct. 10 with “A Night in New Orleans,” featuring internationally known jazz trumpeter Byron Stripling. “Stripling is the artistic director of the Columbus Jazz Orchestra, leader of his own quartet and constantly in demand to play with pops orchestras around the world. An extroverted performer who brings the audience into his music, the happiness that he exudes through his trumpet, his vocals and his words is reminiscent of Louis Armstrong, yet very much his own,” Bouton said.
He continued to say that Peter Olstad, the regular lead trumpet for CJRO, was not able to play in the October concert, and Weist said: “Let me call my buddy who plays lead for Count Basie. He’ll think this will be fun.” This is an example of the kind of change Weist can bring to the band. “Holidays With the CJRO” is scheduled on Dec. 7 when the band will perform big-band holiday favorites, including Duke Ellington’s “Nutcracker.” On Jan. 23, there will be a tribute to Woody Herman’s Thundering Herd, and on March 23, vocalist Kim Nazarian of the New York Voices will be featured. Bouton said, “This band has been a dream come true for me. To see the Arts Center packed for a tribute to Maynard Ferguson concert, with people (who brought their own trumpets) playing along to ‘Hey Jude,’ was just amazing.” Tickets are on sale for the new

Singer’s death puts Survivor show in question Iconic 80s rock band scheduled to perform at PACE Center By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com A plan by the 1980s band Survivor to kick off its tour in Parker is up in the air following the sudden death of lead singer Jimi Jamison. Jamison died of a heart attack at the age of 63 on Aug. 31, less than two weeks before a scheduled performance with the iconic rock group at the Parker Arts, Culture and Events Center. Organizers have not canceled the Sept. 12 show and are working with Survivor’s tour manager to determine a course of action during a delicate time, said Carrie Glassburn, marketing manager for the PACE Center. Meanwhile, the venue is offering credit or refunds “to anyone who has asked,” she said. A handful of ticket-holders have contacted the PACE Center since hearing the news of Jamison’s death, including those
who were planning to attend specifically to see the big-voiced front man. Survivor is best known for hits like “Eye of the Tiger,” “Is This Love,” “Burning Heart” and the memorable song “The Moment of Truth” from the final climactic scene of “The Karate Kid.” Glassburn said the band was supposed to leave for Europe shortly after performing in Parker. According to an obituary published online by Rolling Stone, Jamison has shared lead singing duties with David Bickler, the band’s original singer and the voice behind “Eye of the Tiger.” Glassburn expressed hope that Bickler might step in. The band performed in California the night before Jamison died. Glassburn said the news came as a shock, and if the concert goes forward at the PACE Center without Jamison, it will take on a “little bit different meaning.” As of Sept. 2, organizers were still scrambling to figure out the plan. Go to www.pacecenteronline.org or follow the PACE Center’s Facebook page for the latest information. The PACE Center is located at 20000 Pikes Peak Ave.

Arapahoe starts strong, slips late Legend rallies from 13-0 deficit to defeat Warriors By Jim Benton
jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Arapahoe looked like a winner for 36 minutes in its game against Legend Aug. 29 at Sports Authority Stadium in Parker. Legend, however, was the better team in the fourth quarter and came away with a 14-13 victory by scoring the winning touchdown with 1:16 remaining in the game. It was a typical season opener as both teams made mistakes while trying to establish an identity for the remainder of the season. “It was a good win for us because we are very inexperienced on offense, but our defense played lights out,” said Legend coach Rob Doyle. “We made too many mistakes. Just like they made a lot of mistakes late, we made a lot of mistakes early. It was just who was going to make the least mistakes at the end, and that’s where we got them.” Arapahoe coach Mike Campbell concurred. “Our effort was definitely good enough to win,” he said. “The loss came down to us not being mentally tough enough in the critical moments.” It was a defensive struggle for most of the game. Arapahoe, which had a 3-0 lead at halftime, had 111 yards in total offense in the first half while Legend managed just 97 yards. The Warriors finished with 282 yards in total offense compared to 212 for the Titans. Arapahoe put constant pressure on Legend sophomore quarterback Marc Muma with three down linemen and five other defenders lined up and ready to blitz. Muma said he wasn’t confused because the team had watched film on the Warriors, but it took time to adjust. “They blitzed from everywhere and it took a while for our kids to figure that out,” explained Doyle. “They got a lot more comfortable as we went along. Just to help him (Muma) out a little bit, we rolled out a little bit more because we didn’t know where their blitzes were coming. We were just trying to get away from them.” Muma, who made his varsity debut and said he learned a lot, completed six of his last 10 passes as the Titans rallied from a

Photo by Paul DiSalvo 13-point deficit. “We had way too many penalties to win a game like that one,” said Campbell. “With two trips into the red zone producing field goals and missing that TD throw and catch right at the end of the half, that to me is where the game got away from us.” Arapahoe took a 13-0 lead into the fourth quarter after 31- and 43-yard field goals by sophomore Nathan Waanders and a 69-yard touchdown pass from junior quarterback Pete Mitchell to Nick Thompson. Legend’s comeback started with a 63yard drive in which Muma completed two passes for 34 yards and scored on a 2-yard run. That pulled the Titans to within 13-7 after Josh Lyons’ extra point kick with 4:05 left in the game. Arapahoe failed to get a first down on its next possession and Legend took over at
their own 48-yard line with 2:15 left in the game. Legend, helped by a pass interference penalty, advanced to the Warriors’ 20yard line and faced a fourth-and-10 situation with 1:53 to play when Muma was sacked. However, Arapahoe was called for a facemask penalty, which gave the Titans a fourth and 4 at the Arapahoe 13-yard line with 1:49 left to play. “That’s one of those breaks,” said Doyle of the facemask infraction. “We didn’t get those in the first half and we needed that.” Muma delivered a quick pass to Austin Gilbert that went to the 1-yard line and then Brayden Freeman concluded the drive with a plunge into the end zone with 1:16 still showing on the clock. Lyons converted the winning PAT. “We had a play called and we thought it was going to be a touchdown,” Doyle said
of the fourth down call. “Then we were second guessing ourselves. We had too much time. It was a quick hitter because they were blitzing everybody.” The Titans’ defense didn’t allow Arapahoe to get a first down in the final 76 seconds of the game. Muma completed 11 of 27 passes for 139 yards. He was intercepted twice and lost 27 yards because of Arapahoe’s pressure. Freeman, a junior, gained 93 yards rushing on 22 carries. Mitchell passed for 137 yards and rushed for 43 to spark the Warriors’ offense. Nick Thompson rushed for 55 yards and caught two passes for 70 yards. Legend goes after its second win Sept. 4 against Rocky Mountain in Fort Collins, while Arapahoe travels to Colorado Springs to face Doherty that same day.
Creek girls third at Warrior Invitational In boys race, Arapahoe eighth, Bruins ninth By Tom Munds
tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com Cherry Creek runners battled unexpected challenges created by nature as the Bruins girls finished third and the boys were ninth in the varsity team standings at the Aug. 29 Warrior Invitational cross country meet at deKoevend Park in Centennial. In the girls division, Devon Peterson was the first Bruin across the finish line as she posted a time of 19 minutes, 49 seconds to take 10th place in a field of about 330 runners from 57 schools. Peterson’s teammates contributing to the high finish were Emily Cutter (30th) Lillian Markusch (31st), Katie Plomond (32nd), Anne Raymond (43rd), Kiere Pelleter (51st) and Clair Giradeau (116th). The first five runners across the finish line for the Bruins amassed a team score of 145 points at the invitational, hosted by Arapahoe High School. Pine Creek won the team title with a score of 107 and
A trio of Cherry Creek runners, Emily Cutter (612), Lillian Markusch (645) and Katie Plomondon (667) were the 29th, 30th and 31st runners to cross the finish line at the Aug. 29 Warrior Invitational cross country meet at deKoevend Park in Centennial. Devon Peterson finished 10th and was the first Bruin across the end line as Cherry Creek took third in the team standings in the girls varsity division. Photo by Tom Munds Monarch was second with 139 . In the boys varsity division,
Arapahoe, led by Steven Goldy, finished eighth. Goldy’s time of
17:11 earned 15th-place honors. Cherry Creek teammates Kyle
Moran and Daniel Book came across the finish line shoulder to shoulder. Moran was awarded 41st place and Book was awarded 42nd place in a field of about 350 runners. They were both credited with a time of 17:45. Their efforts helped the Bruins post a team score of 372 points. Mountain Vista won the boys team title. The heavy rains that drenched the area created some unexpected challenges for the runners. Usually at the Warrior, runners have to jump over the small amount of water flowing at two points along the High Line Canal. However, the rains changed all that as the canal became a high, fast-running stream. One crossing was about thigh-high and the second crossing was up to the waist of many runners. Runners also had to use handholds and work their way up two or three slopes turned slippery and muddy by the rain. Race organizers held a freshman-sophomore race, a varsity race and a junior varsity race. There were boys and girls divisions in all the races. Despite the unexpected natural challenges, almost all of the hundreds of runners finished the race.

PGA’s best to tee it up at Cherry Hills Staff report With dozens of the world’s best professional golfers set to tee it up at Cherry Hills Country Club this week, tickets are at a premium. No tickets will be sold at the gate for the Sept. 4-7 BMW Championship and fans are encouraged to check online at www.BMWChampionshipUSA.com for availability. “We do expect to see maybe over 140,000 fans for the week,” said BMW Championship General Chairman George Solich. The BMW Championship is the third — and second to last — leg of the season-ending FedEx Cup playoffs. The top 70 players in the standings advance to Cherry Hills for the first Colorado PGA men’s event since the 2006 International at Castle Pines. The top 125 players in the FedEx standings, which didn’t include Tiger Woods, played Aug. 21-24 at The Barclays in Paramus, N.J. to kick off the playoffs. Hunter Mahan won the event, and in turn moved from 62nd to first in the standings, dropping Rory McIlroy to second. Playoff contenders were trimmed to 100 for the Deutsche Bank Championship Aug. 29-Sept. 1 in Norton, Mass., and the top 70 will then come to Cherry Hills. Playoff points are added to those garnered during the regular season and points will determine the eventual champion following the Tour Championship Sept. 11-14 in Atlanta. Only the leading 30 players in points after Cherry Hills will play in Atlanta. In addition to Mahan and McIlroy, other celebrated players in the top 100 prior to the Deutsche Bank Championship include Bubba Watson (fifth), 2010 FedEx champion Jim Furyk (sixth), Rickie Fowler (11th), Sergio Garcia (15th), Kent Denver graduate Kevin Stadler (34th), Ernie Els (39th) and Phil Mickelson (57th). The contenders who make the Cherry Hills field will compete on a 7,352-yard, par 70 course with 3-inch deep rough. “With the rain we’ve had, the rough has got some teeth,” Solich said.

High school football results
Colorado’s top two Class 5A football teams, according to the CHSAANow.com preseason rankings, scored impressive victories in the first official week of the season. Top-ranked Valor Christian improved its record to 2-0 on Aug. 28 with a 21-12 win over No. 4 Pomona, which stretched the Eagles’ winning streak over Colorado teams to 25 games. Senior backup quarterback Parker Courier replaced injured Dylan McCaffrey and completed nine of 14 passes for 97 yards and a touchdown. McCaffrey suffered a possible concussion. The defending state champion Eagles opened the season with a zero week 61-20 romp over Bonneville, Idaho. Cherry Creek, ranked second, faces Pomona on Sept. 5 after opening its campaign with a 21-14 win over No. 7 Regis Jesuit. Lutheran, ranked No. 1 in Class 3A, journeyed to Houston and came home with a 56-55 overtime victory over Lutheran South Academy. Quarterback James Willis passed for 238 yards, receiver Joshua Clausen had 214 receiving yards and running back Jamil Bond rushed for 184 yards and three touchdowns for the Lions, which stopped a 2-point South Academy overtime conversion to seal the win. In other games, Mountain Vista rallied for 21 secondhalf points to earn a 21-6 season opening victory Aug. 28 over Mountain Range at Shea Stadium. Senior quarterback Brock Rubley connected on 14 of 21 passes for 176 yards and two touchdowns for the Golden Eagles. Senior Luke Nelson was in on 12 total tackles and recovered a fumble to spark the Vista defensive effort. Chaparral’s new head coach Rod Dobbs will have to wait until Sept. 4 to attempt to get his first victory when the Wolverines play Bear Creek. Grandview rushed for 279 yards and averaged 6.5 yards per carry in handing Chaparral a 46-l3 loss in the Aug. 28 season opener. Cherokee Trail whipped ThunderRidge 35-7 with the Grizzlies’ lone touchdown coming on a 39-yard pass from Tristan Eve to Alex O’Reilly in the Aug. 29 contest. Overland intercepted two passes for touchdowns in a 23-16 over Heritage. Pueblo Centennial collected a 39-28 win over Highlands Ranch Aug. 29 at Shea Stadium. Bear Creek edged Castle View, 26-20, on Aug. 29, and Arvada West toppled Douglas County, 32-19.

Entertainment District’s future in focus Theater renovation, apartment complex in discussion stages By Jane Reuter jreuter@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Work to transform Lone Tree’s Entertainment District finally appears on the horizon. Owners of the building that houses United Artists want to start in six months a renovation of the theater complex into an upscale facility more like Greenwood Village’s Landmark or the Streets at Southglenn’s Regal Southglenn theaters. An adjacent landowner has presented preliminary plans to the city to raze the Go Putt! miniature golf course and build a five-story luxury apartment complex. Those two projects could give the city and other business owners there the energy needed to proceed with transforming the remainder of the Entertainment District. “Once some major pieces start falling in place, we can gain some momentum,”
said Steve Hebert, assistant city manager. Lone Tree’s Vision Book, a document released in August 2013, outlines its hopes for the area originally developed in the 1980s on both sides of Park Meadows Drive east of Yosemite Street. The future Lone Tree Plaza ideally would serve as the heart of Lone Tree, and could include a promenade to encourage walking, extensive landscaping, water features, a kids’ play area and farmers market. The current three-way intersection at Kimmer and Park Meadows drives likely would Public Notice become a four-way, providing another COMBINED NOTICE - PUBLICATION access into theFORECLOSURE district.CRS §38-38-103 SALE NO. 0768-2014 The city hired a Itconsulting team To Whom May Concern: This Noticeto is givenvision, with regard to the following dehelp design the and is acting as scribed Deed of Trust: On July 1, 2014, the undersigned Public a facilitator among the many businesses Trustee caused the Notice of Election and Demand relating to the Deed of Trust dewithin the district. scribed below to be recorded in the County of Arapahoe records. “Our theater is a key element to this viOriginal Grantor(s): Vanessa K.

Jerry Grewe, vice president of real estate at Regal Cinemas, did not return calls requesting comment. But both Wiseman and Hebert said Grewe has discussed the potential redesign. Wiseman said redesigning the theater complex with fewer seats, but larger VIPvariety leather recliners, alcohol and perhaps food service would be more in keeping with Lone Tree’s demographic than the current style. That decrease in seating would require fewer parking spaces, and allow some development in the parking lot. “We’ll be able to carve two to three pads out of our parking lot, develop them into more shops and restaurants to really create a revitalization of the Entertainment District,” Wiseman said. Across the parking lot from the theater complex, developer Ken Marsh proposes a five-story, 165-unit apartment complex on what is now a miniature golf course. Park Meadows Business Trust also has ownership in the Bridge Street building that houses Panera Bread, the building that is home to Mellow Mushroom and a planned apartment complex at Lincoln
Station. “We’re heavily invested in Lone Tree and have high expectations for the Entertainment District and the rebranding of it,” Marsh said. “We deeply believe this will be a great place to be long-term.” While plans for the apartment building are in the early stages, Marsh describes it as “top-of-the-line,” and similar in quality to the Vue and Miramont apartments in RidgeGate. His ideal timeline calls for construction starting in the spring, with completion in early 2016. Go Putt! owner Dave Smith also is on board with the city’s plans for the Entertainment District. “We just started year 14 (of mini golf ),” he said. “But we are major supporters of what the city wants to do with the Vision Plan for this area. So when Ken and I were talking and he offered to buy it, we thought it was a good deal, let them develop this into the potential it could have.” Smith said the golf course remains open, with no set closing date. “We’re here until we’re not,” he said.

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Be careful not to allow the backers of a new financial “deal” to pull the wool over the Lamb’s eyes. It could hold fewer plusses and more negatives than you were first led to believe. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) It’s a good idea to finish all incomplete tasks so that you can devote your attention to next week’s projects. The weekend could hold surprises for romantic Fernandas and Ferdinands.

GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) A workplace suggestion you made a while ago that you might have forgotten could come back with a request to turn it from idea to reality. Your social life picks up considerably this weekend.
