Building inspector out of job, facing felonies Man accused of entering home, stealing underwear By George Lurie

glurie@ourcoloradonews.com An Arapahoe County building inspector arrested in September on suspicion of illegally entering a woman’s residence and snatching a pair of her underwear has lost his job but will have his day in court next

month. Lambert Leon Iringan, 65, is scheduled to be arraigned Dec. 13. He will appear before Judge Gerald Rafferty in the 18th Judicial District’s Division 308 courtroom. After posting a $200,000 bond, Iringan waived his right to a preliminary hearing at his initial court appearance. Arapahoe County officials initially placed Iringan on paid administrative leave pending the outcome of an investigation by the sheriff’s department. But Andrea Rasizer, a county spokesperson, said this week: “Effective Sept. 24, Iringan no longer works for Arapahoe County.”

A Centennial resident employed by Arapahoe County since 1998, Iringan was arrested Sept. 13 in connection with an incident that allegedly occurred the previous day. According to investigators from the sheriff’s office, he is suspected of unlawfully entering an occupied residence in unincorporated Arapahoe County. A woman told sheriff’s deputies that a man came into her bedroom, which was dark, while she was still in bed around 8:30 a.m. on Sept. 12. According to the woman, the man did not notice her and went to a dresser and

began opening drawers. When the suspect removed an article of clothing from a drawer — later reported to be underwear — the woman screamed and the suspect fled the scene. The victim told Arapahoe County sheriff’s investigators she was having her basement remodeled and that the contractor for the project had been scheduled to meet with a county building inspector that morning. Iringan faces two felonies and one misdemeanor: second-degree burglary of a dwelling, first-degree trespass and theft of less than $50.

Officials learn basics of life in the spotlight Incoming members of council get orientation By George Lurie

Crosswalk signal keeps things safe No accidents reported since device installed By George Lurie

glurie@ourcoloradonews.com A new crosswalk signal — the first of its kind in the city — is proving to be highly effective in protecting pedestrians and cyclists navigating the Centennial Link Trail as it crosses South Holly Street just north of Arapahoe Road. The new signal system, known as HAWK, was installed in September and so far, has kept the busy crossing safe. “We’re not aware of any accidents being reported since the HAWK was installed,” said Centennial spokesperson Allison Wittern, who added that the location chosen to install the HAWK “was not a problem crosswalk. The HAWK enhanced safety in this area where there was already a lot of pedestrian use,” said Wittern. “The HAWK also improved connectivity to the nearby trail.” HAWK — or High-intensity Activated crosswalk — is a push-button activated hybrid beacon that city officials believe provides a safer crossing environment for walkers and cyclists. Research has shown nearly 97 percent of motorists comply with the HAWK bea-

con. The system’s design was imported from Europe, where it is used at both street and railway crossings. But until 2010, the Federal Highway Administration categorized the HAWK system as experimental. In the U.S., the system was first deployed at a pedestrian crossing in Tucson, Ariz. The system costs $132,000 and Centennial’s first HAWK crossing was funded through a partnership with South Suburban Parks and Recreation District. The signal remains dark until activated by a push-button on either side of the crosswalk. For pedestrians and cyclists using the crosswalk, the signal works much the same as any other push-button activated traffic signal. But for drivers approaching the crossing, the HAWK system looks somewhat different. After being activated, the HAWK system actually goes through five distinct stages: When the crossing button is pushed, the HAWK signals on Holly begin flashing yellow to alert drivers the crosswalk will be occupied soon. Then the signal turns solid yellow, warning drivers to prepare to stop after which it turns red, requiring drivers to stop at the stop line.

Finally, the signal flashes red to let drivers know that after coming to a complete stop, they may proceed with caution if the crosswalk is clear. After completing a full cycle, the signals return again to their dark state. The system also features a countdown clock on the WALK indicator to let pedestrians and cyclists know how much longer they have to cross the street. Eric Milton, who was hiking along the Centennial Link Trail Nov. 11, said he uses the Holly Street crosswalk two or three times a week. “Since they put this new light in, it’s much easier and a lot less scary to cross here,” he said. A few drivers who stopped at the crossing seemed to be confused when pedestrians cleared the crosswalk and the signals flashed red at the end of the HAWK cycle. “I’ve never seen that before. I guess it means we can go now,” said one driver through an open window. Several other drivers continued to idle at the crosswalk until the flashing red signals stopped and the HAWK system went dark again. Asked if motorists had complained about the new signal system being confusing, Wittern said no. “We’ve actually received very little feedback” from the city’s Citizen Response Center about the HAWK crossing, Wittern reported.

When newly elected city council members Mark Gotto, Doris Truhlar, Kathy Turley and CJ Whelan are sworn in on Jan. 6, they will have already received nearly 10 hours of formal training on how to conduct themselves in the public spotlight. On the evenings of Dec. 16 and Dec. 17, city officials will hold an orientation for the new council members and “this year, the council orientation is going to be different than what we’ve done in previous years,” said Allison Wittern, public information and special events manager for the city. At next month’s training, in addition to being issued their new City of Centennial laptops, business cards and email addresses, the four new councilors, according to Wittern, “will also have their first opportunity to sit in their seats on the council chamber dais and make motions and experience some of the things they’ll deal with at their first meeting.” Wittern said the first session of orientation also will include a welcome and overview, a tour of the civic center building and answers to important legal questions. The second night of orientation will feature a mock council session. “There will be an explanation of the public comment part of the council meeting,” Wittern explained. “We’ll address a lot of other key issues too. A mock land-use case will be on the agenda as well as a mock public hearing and review of a (simulated) open space funding agreement.” Wittern said City Clerk Brenda Madison will play a key role in the orientation and Mayor Cathy Noon and the four other sitting council members are also expected to attend. “For the orientation, we try to select topics that our new council members want to be familiar with sooner than later,” Wittern said. “It also will be a good opportunity for everyone to get together for the first time.” On its website, the city includes a section for newly elected city officials titled: “So you just got elected to a municipal office, now what are you going to do?” “In the heat of the campaign, you had a lot of dreams, may have made a few promises.

Most graffiti innocent but pesky Parks district spends thousands on cleanup By Jennifer Smith

UNSPOKEN UNSPOKEN “A rip-roaring good read. Old fans and new readers alike will be delighted”- Publisher’s Weekly Read the first chapter at

www.DeeHenderson.com

One person’s art is often another person’s expensive cleanup job. But, says one park ranger, “Most of the time it’s just nonsense.” Dan Scheuerman, senior park ranger at South Suburban Parks and Recreation District, says graffiti has been on the rise throughout the district since a sudden, unexplainable increase in 2007. Since then, the district has counted 1,067 incidents for a cleanup cost of about $263,000. “Time and money spent removing graffiti could be spent on upkeep and enhancements to parks, trails, open space and facilities,” said SSPR spokesperson Jamie DeBartolomeis in a press release. Since late August, there have been 40 incidents across the district. Scheuerman often sees more graffiti in the fall, he says, as kids settle back into school. Most of it is innocent, just kids goofing off, he says. “Those 14-year-olds can run pretty fast,” said Scheuerman. “Unless you happen to get lucky, it’s almost impossible to catch them.” Littleton Police Officer Jim Hanna agrees. “To be honest, we’ve seen a reduction in gang activity,” he said. “People used to talk about the wannabes, and then it got real.” He’s referring to the shooting death of DaVon Flores in October 2012. Three men have been arrested and are awaiting trial. Hanna worked as a school-resource officer for several years, and said Littleton Public Schools is good about keeping any and all gang activity, including graffiti, away from its buildings. “It almost seems like it’s a reprieve for the kids that they don’t have to deal with it there,” he said. But wander the culverts and trails of the city, and you’ll see plenty of evidence that even if the kids aren’t in

gangs, there’s plenty of gathering going on. Most of it is doodling, namecalling or just nonsense, as Scheuerman calls it. A particularly ironic one proclaims, “Jesus loves you.” If that artist also supports “Do unto others,” presumably she’d be glad to pay the $500 Scheuerman said it cost to remove her work. “There’s not a lot for teenagers to do,” said Hanna. “They get chased out of the parks by people who think they might be up to no good, and eventually they end up in places like this where nobody can see them.” Painting over graffiti is the easiest fix, but porous surfaces like signs and sidewalks require the use of chemicals and power-washing equipment. “Every time you bring down a large piece of equipment, the price goes up,” said Scheuerman. An $8,000 camera on top of a very high pole overlooking the skate park at Cornerstone Park has basically eliminated the problem there, said Scheuerman, and locking park restrooms at night has cut down cleanup

time at some of the other parks. “They’re good about getting it cleaned up,” said Hanna. “They’re trying to keep up a good image for the city. And the citizens are good about reporting it.” DeBartolomeis asks parents to remind teenagers that graffiti is illegal, and those who are caught get a ticket, a court date, possible community service and a bill for the cleanup costs. “No area in the district, regardless of cultural or economic status, is immune to this activity,” she writes. To report a graffiti sighting in a park or on a trail, call Scheuerman at 303-435-8225 or 303-435-8227. If it’s on city or private property, call the Littleton Police Department at 303794-1551. City code requires it to be removed or painted over within 24 hours. “If you see graffiti or vandalism in progress, call 911 immediately with the location and description of the participant,” advises the city’s website. “Prompt removal of graffiti helps to discourage further incidents of graffiti in a neighborhood.”

Reutzel poised for win in LPS election Warren-Gully, Perez solid for top two slots By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Just 69 votes made the difference between taking a seat on the Littleton Public Schools Board of Education and going back to the drawing board. Assuming the results as of press time hold, Jack Reutzel snagged the third seat at the table with 12,622 votes, or 19.59 percent. “I won’t be pronouncing any winners until after the canvass, which is Nov. 22,” Matt Crane, Arapahoe County Clerk and Recorder, said on Nov. 7. “However, with that said, I don’t anticipate much change in vote totals after the updated count we release this

afternoon.” Just six votes separated the bottom two candidates — Dallas Jones finished with 12,553 (19.48 percent), Robert Reichardt with 12,547 (19.47 percent). “Congratulations to the winning candidates,” said Jones. “LPS is in good hands going forward. Let’s give them our full support.” Carrie Warren-Gully snagged the top spot with 21.67 percent, or 13,694.

Kelly Perez followed with 13,011 votes, or 20.19 percent. “I wanted to thank all the voters who voted for me, and my friends for their support and hard work during this campaign,” said Perez. “I look forward toward serving the next four years in the LPS school community.” Reutzel is ahead by just enough to prevent an automatic recount, which kicks in when there is less than a half of a percent difference among the candidates. Any candidate could ask for one but would have to pay for it out of pocket. Thus far, none have indicated that they would. Assuming the results stand, Warren-Gully, Perez and Reutzel will replace Sue Chandler, Bob Colwell and Renee Howell, who were all term-limited.

Santa arrives at Park Meadows Annual event kicks off holiday shopping season By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Highlands Ranch residents Casey and Stella Oyloe may only be 6 and 4, but their Christmas lists reveal their technological maturity. “An iPhone and pixie dust,” 6-year-old Stella said as she, her sister and two cousins waited to see Santa Claus at Park Meadows mall Nov. 9. “An iPhone and a baby doll,” 4-year old Casey said. Cousin Patrick Westhoff, 7, of Commerce City, had an equally adult request. “Avalanche tickets,” he said, struggling and failing to think of anything else he wanted. Zoe Westhoff, meanwhile, has her hopes set on a more traditional childhoodvariety gift. “My Little Pony and a Princess Twilight Sparkle doll,” the 7-year-old said. Around the corner, Castle Rock 4-yearold Emma Maddaford, attired for the morning in a sparkling red sweater dress, said she wants a mermaid tale and Christmas pajamas. Her 3-year-old brother Miles explained his fondest desire in detail. “I want the Polar Express train that goes around the tree, and then we can push a button and it goes around the tree,” he said. The six were among hundreds of children waiting at the Lone Tree mall Saturday morning to greet Santa Claus and kick

off the holiday shopping season. Santa, known to some as Sterling resident Larry Propp, arrived in grand style on a South Metro fire truck. As he stepped out of the cab, a small girl broke free from the crowd of onlookers and wrapped her arms around him in a tight hug. He quickly was surrounded by excited children, who accompanied him on a walk through the mall to Santa’s Village — a section of the mall reserved for Santa and his visitors from now through Christmas. Children weren’t the only ones happy to see Santa. The day of Santa’s arrival at the mall is typically one of the busiest of the year at Justice children’s clothing store, manager Cori Wagner said. “I think this is going to be a better shopping season than last year,” she said. “I think now that the furlough is over, people will be spending money.” Lego store supervisor Courtney Morgan said a shorter shopping season meant the season started early this year. “On Halloween night, we put all our Christmas stuff up,” she said. “So I think people this year are more apt to get in the spirit earlier.” Park Meadows traditionally draws high traffic — with parking lots often filled to capacity — during the holiday season, but manager Pamela Schenck-Kelly isn’t sure this season will set records. “It’s difficult when you have big numbers to grow by big numbers,” she said. “The retail industry has plateaued at this point.” Employees are difficult to find this year, indicating a drop in unemployment, Schenck-Kelly said. “The other factor is I think the com-

Surrounded by children and parents, Santa makes his way through Park Meadows mall from the dining hall to Santa’s Village Nov. 9. Photo by Jane Reuter munity has become very stabilized,” she said. “We have a very educated consumer. I think they’re more savvy than typical here because of this demographic, but it’s also due to technology. They know real value as opposed to inflated value. They’re more

zeroed in on what they want.” Along with malls and retailers nationwide, some Park Meadows stores will open Thanksgiving night, with others starting Black Friday at midnight and the remainder between then and 8 a.m.

Fallen hero honored at St. Mary’s Pat Hannon graduated, then went to Vietnam By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com As the wind blew some of the last autumn leaves to the ground Nov. 11, St. Mary Catholic School remembered a fallen hero during a Veterans Day ceremony. “When I pass through the pearly gates, I expect to see Lt. Cpl. Patrick J. Hannon protecting them,” said Deacon Paul Grimm during the invocation. Hannon, a St. Mary’s graduate, was Littleton’s first confirmed casualty of the Vietnam War. He is buried in Littleton Cemetery. Hannon was a proud member of India Company, 3rd Battalion, 9th Marines, 3rd Marine Division, and in country for just a year. The rifleman was gunned down in Quang Nam Province on Sept. 3, 1966, exactly a month before he would have turned 20. He drew his last breath the next day.

Hannon’s twin brother, Mike, remembers being at Elitch’s amusement park with his new bride on that day, and suddenly feeling unwell enough to go home. “It seems like when Pat was hit, Mike felt it, which is amazing,” said Jack Woodman, commander of Littleton’s Veterans of Foreign Wars Pat Hannon Post 4666. The post number reflects the years 1946, when Hannon was born, and 1966, when he died. In addition to his namesake post, members of the Knights of Columbus St. Padre Pio Assembly 2813 were on hand in all their aplomb, escorting two U.S. Marines to unveil a plaque recognizing Hannon’s ultimate sacrifice. “We are here today to honor Patrick for his service and, by the dedication of this plaque, say to Patrick and his family, `You are not forgotten,’” said Don Ferega, faithful navigator of the Knights assembly. Father Alvaro Montero blessed both the plaque and the attendees. “The true heroes are those that died, because they probably took the bullet that we could have taken,” said

Charles Schwab campus taking shape Company will allow public use of some areas By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Charles Schwab’s 1,800 Denver-area employees, now divided among three separate buildings, are anxiously waiting for move-in day at the under-construction Lone Tree campus. “The excitement is palpable,” vice president Brian McDonald said. “I’d almost equate it to building your own new home. We really feel we’re moving out of an office park and into a community.” Charles Schwab was ranked fifth among 500 employers on the Denver Post’s 2013

list of Top Work Places. It’s an honor the company takes seriously, and one that’s reflected in its Lone Tree campus. The $230 million project taking shape on a 57-acre lot in RidgeGate is designed to make current employees happy and attract future ones. It features a 6,500-square-foot cafeteria, a building with a garden rooftop, outdoor amphitheater, parking garage with 18 electric charging stations, bike lockers, connections to area bike paths and walking trails, and interior walkways connecting the buildings. The eventual expansion of the light rail line across Lincoln Avenue also is a key feature for its employees. Recently, construction crews began installing mirrored windows on the two identical five-story office buildings that will

house 2,200 employees in late 2014. With room for a third five-story office building on Schwab’s land, the campus eventually may house as many as 5,000 employees. A retail branch building, which will be open to customers, also is under construction at the southwest corner of Lincoln Avenue and Park Meadows Drive. Tentative plans call for sharing meeting room space with the City of Lone Tree, and Schwab officials are talking with Lone Tree Arts Center leaders about using the amphitheater for community events. Visitors will be welcome to sit or eat lunch in the amphitheater, elevated enough to offer long views of the Front Range, Lone Tree and the south metro area. “We want to invest in the community,” McDonald said. “We have security in our

buildings, but the campus grounds are certainly to be shared.” Schwab’s focus on the Denver area is about much more than the pleasant climate. Since the San Francisco-based company opened its first Denver branch in 1977, it’s tapped into what it sees as a welleducated employee pool. “Being in Denver is part of our talent acquisition strategy,” McDonald said. Mortensen Construction is charged with the project. Construction executive Jason Miller shares McDonald’s pride in the project. “I think (the buildings) are beautiful,” he said. The Fortunate 500 financial securities firm has more than 300 branch offices and employs about 13,000 people in 45 states, London and Puerto Rico.

Englewood swim program honored By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com

SUPPORT

The Colorado Parks and Recreation Association presented Englewood the Columbine Award for innovation for its “Make a Splash” program at the association’s annual conference on Sept. 27. The aquatics department of the Englewood Parks and Recreation Department teamed up with USA Swimming to expand awareness about the

importance of water safety. Since 2010, the department has awarded more than $14,000 in grants to pay for free or reduced cost swimming lessons for at-risk children. The grant was used to provide scholarships. The scholarship program boosted the number of children registered for swim lessons by 20 percent from 2009 to 2012. Grant funds also helped make it possible for the recreation department to give away about 1,000 free

passes to either Pirates Cove Family Aquatic Center or the indoor pool at the Englewood Recreation Center. Brad Anderson, aquatics supervisor, said the grants were needed since 50 percent of students in Englewood schools are considered at-risk. The grant funds were used up during the summer swimming lessons. However, the parks and recreation department continue to provide scholarships for swimming lessons to children of needy families.

E-470 corridor poised for boom Interest driven by several factors By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ourcoloradonews.com The E-470 corridor in Parker is poised for a development boom. Projects that have remained dormant since the housing market crash are getting a fresh look, signaling renewed confidence in the development community. Several land use applications were received by the Town of Parker from July 1 to Sept. 30, and many of them could fill vacant properties along the E-470 tollway. Community development director John Fussa said the applications will turn into “tangible construction activity in the next year, year and a half.” “Parker is squarely in the path of growth and it certainly is occurring, and we see it accelerating,” he said. The vast Compark area will experience an increase in residential homebuilding and commercial activity. Applicants for Compark Village South have a pending request to change 150 acres of land north and northeast of E-470 and Cottonwood Drive from agricultural zoning to planned development. The developers want to build up

to 312 units, including multifamily, single family and neighborhood commercial land uses. Last June, the town approved the Compark Village Filing No. 5 final plat for 45 single-family lots on 17 acres on the northeast corner of Chambers Road and Compark Boulevard. The Chambers Highpoint project on the southwest corner of E-470 and Chambers Road will have “highway commercial, multi-family, commercial and open space land uses” on 44 acres if approved. Also under review is The Lighthouse at Crown Point, a 22-acre multifamily housing project near Parker Adventist Hospital, and Cottonwood Highlands, 105 single-family detached lots proposed west of Jordan Road and north of E-470. Many other projects, like Vantage Point, a 900-unit apartment complex with light retail, have already received the green light. John Hall, economic development director for the Town of Parker, said a combination of factors is driving the recent flurry of proposals. The general improvement in the economy, solid infrastructure and continued growth have piqued the interest of developers, some of whom once thought Parker was too far removed from the metro area, Hall said. “Location is key and E-470 provides that

A public notice sign stands on one of the many properties slated for possible development near E-470 and Chambers Road in Parker. Photo by Chris Michlewicz for both residential and commercial activity,” he said. Michael Vickers, the applicant listed on some of the Compark filings, did not respond to an interview request. Many of the recent applications ask permission to build homes and apartments, largely because the commercial market is still struggling. The fact that E-470 is a tollway could also pose challenges for businesses whose customers don’t want to pay to shop. Although the town is attempting to “cre-

ate an employment corridor,” office developers are even tougher to attract to E-470 due to significant vacancies in the Denver Technological Center, Hall said. However, one developer approached Douglas County officials in late summer to request an economic incentive package to build a 90,000 square-foot building valued at $8.5 million. The request was later withdrawn. Hall is confident that E-470, which has been designated by the Town of Parker as the corridor for the largest developments, will find its niche in the marketplace.

be formally selected to complete the North Metro line later this month, did include in its proposal, as requested by RTD, the cost to complete the Southwest Line into Highlands Ranch as well as the southeast line from Lincoln Station in Lone Tree south to Ridgegate; however, funding for those projects is yet to be identified. “As additional funds become available, RTD can exercise an option of the contrac-

tor to build out the extensions,” Bagley said. “The question over the issue of funding should be answered over the next six to nine months.” Bagley said he was unable to disclose the actual costs of either southern extension as the contract is yet to be signed. Bagley said RTD will work on any potential traffic issues with Douglas County when that time comes.

Still no timeline for RTD extension By Ryan Boldrey

rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com A telephone town hall hosted by RTD this past week provided no answers as to when the Southwest Line of light rail would be extended into Highlands Ranch — just more questions. The hourlong call-in with district officials and RTD District H Director Kent

Bagley on Nov. 7 brought participants up to date on many of the happenings within the Regional Transit District, including timelines for Denver Union Station, the East rail line to the airport and the likely winning bidder to construct the North Metro line, but there was still no concrete timeline for the proposed Lucent Station.

Chatfield watershed draft plan released Group’s focus is on pollutant mitigation By Staff report The group working on a vision for the future of the Chatfield watershed has developed a draft plan and wants the public to weigh in. “The Chatfield Watershed Plan provides an essential framework for prioritizing and protecting our local natural resources,” Casey Davenhill, executive director of the Colorado Watershed Assembly, said in a press release. “It also offers citizens educational information to help adults, kids, pet owners, farmers and others take responsible action to safeguard public health and safety that ultimately affects water quality in all of our communities.” The CWA was established in 1984 by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment in an effort to protect water quality throughout the watershed, which includes parts of Douglas and Jefferson counties. Member agencies include the Audubon Society, Denver Water, a variety

The Chatfield Water Authority wants public input on its mitigation plan. File photo of water and sanitation districts, several municipalities, the Denver Urban Water Partnership and many more. The plan focuses on stream restoration and mitigating the effects of wildfire and erosion. It calls for diverting runoff

away from areas polluted by such things as animal waste and deteriorating septic systems, in an effort to protect the groundwater and the South Platte River south of Chatfield Reservoir. “In addition to its primary purpose of

flood control, (Chatfield) serves as one of many water-supply reservoirs for the City of Denver and other Front Range communities, which is why it’s essential for all citizens to understand how human, animal and recreational activities affect water quality and the natural ecosystems that co-exist with one another,” said Julie Vlier, supervising engineer at Tetra Tech, the firm that conducted the study for CWA. “The inclusive public process in which the watershed plan has been carefully developed focuses on the practical actions that will lead to significant improvements to water quality in this vital watershed.” CWA will accept public comments through January, then organize them in time for a final public meeting in the spring. It can be viewed at www.chatfieldwatershedauthority.org; click on “Watershed Plan,” then “Plan Documentation.” Send comments to julie.vlier@tetratech. com.

Castle Pines family’s search now a mission Hunt for son’s cure leads to larger purpose By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com When Lucas Larsson began feeling unusually fatigued playing soccer, his parents first attributed it to the rapid-fire changes that accompany adolescence. “He was a little pale, but he was growing a lot,” said his father, Anders Larsson. But when the Rock Canyon High School junior struggled to walk up a hill during a family vacation, alarm bells sounded. Doctors found Lucas had an unusually low hemoglobin count; hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. After

extensive testing, Children’s Hospital doctors diagnosed Lucas with pediatric myelofibrosis. The condition, which causes fibrosis in the bone marrow, is rare. The only cure is a bone marrow transplant. “He’s one of 50 children ever documented in the world with this disease,” mom Dena Larsson said. “You’re just thankful it’s not leukemia. It’s not cancer.” “I was surprised,” Lucas said, “but I wasn’t upset because they didn’t tell us much at the time.” The Castle Pines family, assured that a bone marrow transplant would cure Lucas, needed only to find a donor match. That hasn’t been easy. Among 12 million people included in a bone marrow donor registry, no one was a match for Lucas.

Lucas, one of four boys, is also a twin. His brother Oliver is a perfect match. But if the disease is genetic in origin — as it is in some patients — doctors say using Oliver as the donor puts Lucas at risk of re-developing the disease later in life. The Larssons believe Lucas acquired the disease four years ago after a bad bout with seasonal flu, and that it is not genetic. They also believe that if it is not Oliver, they eventually will find a match. “We are not one bit worried Lucas won’t be well,” Dena said. Lucas looks forward to the day he can again play soccer and ski — activities that now exhaust him. Like his parents, he’s confident he’ll be well again soon. “You look at the positive side of things,” he said.

The Larssons no longer are searching just for Lucas. Because there are 12,000 people also searching for matches, their search also could help some of them. Testing for potential donors is as easy as swabbing the inside of the cheek with a QTip, the Larssons say. Donation requires extensive recovery for the recipient, but is minimally traumatic for the donor. Bone marrow is extracted from the donor’s pelvic bones under anesthesia, and marrow and blood cell counts typically are fully restored in less than two weeks. The Larssons never could have predicted their current mission. “It gives you a new purpose — to volunteer and help people,” Anders said. “You appreciate life more.”

Take precautions this holiday season The holiday season is a beautiful time of year that can bring people together. But it can also be a time fraught with hazards. That’s something that can easily be overlooked amid the shopping, cooking, partying and keeping warm by the fire. But we encourage you to consider some of the following tips to make the closing weeks of 2013 memorable for the right reasons.

Snuff out fire danger

Winter residential fires — which peak in December and January — result in 945 deaths and cause nearly $2 billion in property damage nationally in a typical year, according to the U.S. Fire Administration, an entity of the Federal Emergency Management Agency. It’s not quite winter yet, but recent cold snaps remind us that it’s on the way. The administration has some advice to keep fire threats at bay, which we share below. A more detailed list of things you can do can be found at www.usfa.fema. gov/citizens/home_fire_prev/holiday-

our view seasonal/winter.shtm • Cooking is the leading cause of these types of fires. Unattended cooking is the No. 1 culprit, so stay in the kitchen when frying, grilling or broiling. Wear short, close-fitting clothing, for obvious reasons. Maybe most important, stay alert at all times. • Heating sources — including furnaces, fireplaces and space heaters — are another major cause of fires in the home. It is important to keep flammable materials at a safe distance, generally considered to be 3 feet or more, from a heating source. If you’re using a space heater, it is highly recommended that you plug it directly into the outlet and not use an extension cord. Also, make sure your home has a working smoke alarm and that you have an escape plan for yourself and your family, should a

lost or stolen. • The online realm has its own set of dangers. Be very cautious of whom you give your personal information. Getting a new computer or phone? Wipe out all of your private information before discarding the old one. And, of course, keep your passwords private.

Protect your identity

Drinking? Don’t drive

For many, shopping is a holiday hobby, one that carries a risk 0f identity theft, whether online or at the mall. The Federal Trade Commission has some advice to help keep important, private information secure. More information can be found at www.consumer.ftc.gov/ features/feature-0014-identity-theft • Travel light. Do not carry around more credit, debit or identification cards than you really need. • Shred receipts once you no longer need them. When at the store or mall, you might want to keep those receipts in your pocket instead of in the bag, which can be

Holiday parties often involve alcohol. Some people drink too much, then decide to drive, and the results can be horrific. In fact, Mothers Against Drunk Driving reports that 43 percent of driving fatalities on Christmas Day are alcohol-related. DUI enforcement generally goes up this time of year as well, so there’s an increased risk to drunken drivers’ wallets, as a conviction can be costly, both in court fees and higher insurance costs. If you’re going to drink, taking a cab or using a sober designated driver are common-sense solutions to avoid hurting yourself and others.

Finding balance in Are you a Miley fan? use of social media question of the week

With the announcement that Miley Cyrus will make a stop at Denver’s Pepsi Center on March 4 during her upcoming tour, Colorado Community Media went to the Streets at SouthGlenn to ask: Are you a fan of the entertainer famous for Hannah Montana and, more recently, twerking?

“It’s not my type of music. Really, I’d rather she didn’t come to Denver.” — Mike Hecker, Centennial

“My kids like her songs but I’m not a fan. I guess I just don’t get her.” — Jose Pinedo, Littleton

“Miley Cyrus is OK but I wouldn’t pay to see her. She’s a little too over the top for me.” — Kate Graham, Englewood

“She’s become very trashy. My daughter used to watch Hannah Montana. But since she left Disney, she’s gone downhill fast.” — Suzanne Kisner, Centennial

Time for a change? Actually, no, it’s not Apparently we were supposed to change our clocks sometime in November. Is that correct? Well, I haven’t changed any of mine, and I don’t plan to. Five of them changed all by themselves: the one on my television, the one on my computer, the ones on both telephones, and the one on the thermostat. That’s enough for me. It’s a pain in the neck, and everything in the house came with a clock. Think about it: the coffeemaker, oven, microwave, two clock radios, two wall clocks, the stereo, the DVD player, and Smitty’s dog dish. The car has one too. I have turned off some of them so I don’t have to see my life passing away on every appliance I own. I think Fall Back and Spring Forward is a dumb concept that has no real benefit. Try to guess who and why daylightsaving time was first proposed. Here’s a multiple-choice quiz. Take your time: 1. It was first proposed by a group of Missouri farmers, who wanted an extra hour of daylight to manage their crops. 2. It was first proposed by Benjamin Franklin, who also proposed the United States adopt the turkey as the national bird. 3. It was first proposed by a New Zealand entomologist whose shift-work job gave him after-hours time to collect insects in daylight. 4. It was first proposed by former Cincinnati Reds manager Sparky Anderson, because he despised day-night double-

So I had an interesting experience this past week regarding the use my Facebook account, or maybe I should say misuse of my account. What I had done was accept friend requests or connect with people that I work with on a professional level. I had connected with all of my family members, friends, co-workers, business associates, and customers and really thought it was a great way to stay in touch, keep up with their activities and interests and allow them to keep up with what I was doing. The problem was that I had some new things happening in my life, good and exciting things that I was sharing via my Facebook account. As much as I was excited about the cool things going on, apparently there were one or two co-workers who I was connected with on Facebook who felt compelled to stalk my activities and adventures as I posted them on Facebook and further decided to share them with others in the company. Now there was nothing weird or unnatural about my Facebook posts, these folks just thought that they should share my life’s journey with everyone else at the office. This actually caused a little drama and unfortunately resulted in the need for me to “unfriend” all of the people I work with. And at first I was a little disappointed, hurt, and angry. But then as I

headers. You can give the credit or the blame to George Vernon Hudson. He wanted to have an extra hour of daylight to collect insects. I have often wondered why he didn’t just leave things alone, and collect fireflies after work. At some point — in the third grade? — I think we all realize that a day isn’t perfectly symmetrical all year long. There’s more daylight in the summer than there is in the winter. Sooner or later we hear about something called a leap year (or a bissextile year) when an extra day is added to February. I have a friend who was born on a Feb. 29, and when she turned 64, she claimed she was only 16, because she had only had four true birthdays. So early on in life we figured out that time is adjusted, and it has been ever since ancient civilizations got it rolling. It’s fine with me if February gets an extra day every fourth year, but I am good Marshall continues on Page 9

thought more about it, perhaps Facebook is a much better application to be used with family and friends and connect or interact with my business associates and co-workers in a different way. I already do that via LinkedIn, and since I only use LinkedIn for business reasons, it made so much more sense. The past week has been a test for me, I do miss keeping up with some of my co-workers through Facebook, but I think my anger, hurt, and disappointment have been replaced by a true sense of balance. Facebook for friends and family members and LinkedIn for co-workers and business associates. So far it is working beautifully. Now I understand that many people use Facebook to connect with everyone in one location and they never have issues like I experienced. And I know many people that Norton continues on Page 9

I am sure you have all seen a row of clocks at airports that let you know what time it is where you are, and what time it is in Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Amsterdam.

Evans Post 103. His thought was underscored by 26 peals of a bell, each signifying a veteran Littleton lost over the last year. Pietsch called them unsung heroes. “Their families may be the only ones who knew their names and the sacrifices they made,” he said. Mayor Debbie Brinkman acknowledged she can never fully appreciate those sacrifices, but stood before her city’s heroes simply as a grateful American rep-

resenting all grateful Americans to say “thank you.” “The enormity of their sacrifice is beyond compare,” she said. “So how do we dare to believe that two words, eight letters is enough? … It isn’t enough to say it, we need to be it. Ceremonies are important, but our gratitude has to be more than once a year. We have to honor their efforts by living well.” Charles Dwyer of the American Legion took the opportunity to remind the observers that the day was also the 60th anniversary of the end of hostilities in the Korean War. He said it’s often unfortunately referred to as the “Forgotten War,” having been wedged between the end of WWII and the stirrings of the Vietnam War. “All veterans have earned the right to be treated with dignity and respect,” said Jack Woodman, commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars Pat Hannon Post 4666. He urged all citizens to help ensure that all who have served to protect the country are in turn protected by that country. “Every American, no matter where they live or what they do, reaps the benefits of their service,” he said.

Satisfied singer in lofty crowd

“The Conversation,” mixed media by Valli Thayer McDougal, is in the exhibit “I Think I’m Going to Like it Here” in the Stanton Gallery at Town Hall Arts Center through Jan. 8. Courtesy photo

Four artists show work at Town Hall Exhibit title borrows from musical ‘Annie’ By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Four experienced artists who have exhibited together, with larger groups, will show their paintings at Town Hall Arts Center’s Stanton Gallery through Jan. 8. They are Valli Thayer McDougal, Pat Mudge, Janice Hanson and Jan Archuleta. Their choice of which works to exhibit is influenced to an extent by what’s playing at Town Hall: the musical “Annie,” about the spunky little red-haired girl who graced the comics for many years. Their show title is also a song in the show: “I Think I’m Going to Like it Here.” Two of them: Valli Thayer McDougal and Pat Mudge actually met in a watercolor class in La Jolla, Calif., in 2000 and have remained friends and painting companions since they both moved to Denver

in 2007 and 2008. They soon formed a critique group with Susan Schmitt, meeting monthly. Jan Archuleta and Janice Hanson became their friends via membership in the Colorado Watercolor Society and joined the critique group. “We have become very good friends and colleagues, supporting each other in our artistic journeys,” McDougal wrote. She said she “discovered a passion for painting rather late in life, however `younger than Grandma Moses.’” Her contemporary acrylic painting series: “Windows on the World,” focuses on large shapes, warm colors and sometimes, “Pastiche,” small layered collages and “Opus,” watercolor and mixed media. She is an award-winning painter who belongs to the National Watercolor Society, Colorado Watercolor Society and International Society of Acrylic Painters. Patricia Mudge worked in water media for many years, but has switched to oil paints. She has studied at the University of

San Diego, San Diego Watercolor Society, La Jolla Institute of Art and Art Students League of Denver. She lived in Great Britain and has traveled widely for 40 years, learning from fine artists as she traveled. Janice Hanson is a former photographer, who turned to watercolor “to enhance the images she saw by emphasizing shapes and patterns. She uses paint to stain these shapes with color.” She is a Signature member of the National Watercolor Society and the Rocky Mountain National Watermedia Society. Watercolorist Jan Archuleta, a Colorado native, paints from photos taken in Colorado, New Mexico and other travel locations, including Spain, Italy and China. She is a past president of the Arvada Fine Arts Guild, a Colorado Watercolor Society member, as well as Western Federation of Watercolor Societies, Foothills Art Center, National Watercolor Society and North Metro Arts Alliance.

Alternative gift market keeps on giving Event at churches helps artisans around world By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com World Gift Markets have grown, according to committee member Shelly DeChantal, a metro-area fiber artist who has recently moved to Littleton. Fair Trade, handmade gifts from artisans living around the world — in Laos, Africa, Bolivia and more will be available, as well as items crafted at local nonprofit workshops, such as A Little Something, the Gathering Place and Earthlinks. More than 40 nonprofit and Fair Trade groups will participate. First Universalist Church (northeast corner) and First Plymouth Congregational Church (southwest corner), both at the intersection of East Hampden Avenue and South Colorado Boulevard, have joined together this year to host the World Gift Markets on Nov. 23 (9 a.m. to 4 p.m.) and Nov. 24 (9 a.m. to 2 p.m.), with an opening reception at First Universalist only from 5 to 8 p.m. Nov. 22. The market encourages purposeful giving by supporting artisans in developing countries through Fair Trade businesses such as Silks of Laos, Team Africa and Fair Trade Republica, which bring traditional crafts to the markets. Working with indigenous craftspeople

Ask local vocal Chris Daniels how he’s doing three years after his bone marrow transplant, and he channels legendary soul singer James Brown: “I feel good,” Daniels told me last week during an interview before his Nov. 8 induction into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame. “Do you ever say cured? No, but I say that’s OK,” Daniels adds. Daniels was diagnosed with a fierce form of leukemia in 2010. After receiving a “perfect match” bone marrow transplant from his sister, Jane Moffett, he set his sights on getting back on stage to perform with The Kings, his band of nearly 30 years. Daniels, along with other Colorado musicians — legendary folk singer Judy Collins, the Serendipity Singers and Bob Lind — was inducted during a concert at the Paramount Theatre. “Judy was a hero to me and a lot of other musicians because she was not as operatic a singer as Joan (Baez),” Daniels said about his famous fellow inductee. “She had soul and grit in her beautiful voice and she was a great guitar and piano player. My mother’s favorite song was Judy’s version of `Both Sides Now’ by Joni Mitchell. It’s an amazing honor to go into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame with her.” In between writing music and performing, Daniels teaches music business at the University of Colorado-Denver as an assistant professor for the College of Arts and Media. “I really wanted to get back into teaching,” Daniels said about his post-transplant days. “It really refocused me. I was grading papers and working with substitute teachers when I was in the hospital. One time I was doing lectures by Skype. (The students) are 19- or 20-year-old wise apples ... I really have great hope and enthusiasm for this generation coming out.”

For the kidneys

Through Nov. 17, DaVita, a division of DaVita HealthCare Partners Inc. and a leading provider of kidney care services, partners with three Denver-area restaurants to build awareness for kidney disease with kidney-friendly and diabetes-friendly menus in honor of November as National Diabetes Awareness Month. Each restaurant will offer at least one appetizer, entrée and dessert that are kidney- or diabetesfriendly. Participating restaurants for dinner service are: Table 6, 609 Corona St., (www. table6denver.com); beast + bottle, 719 E. 17th Ave., (www.beastandbottle.com) and YaYa’s Euro Bistro, 8310 E. Belleview Ave., Greenwood Village, (www.yayasdenver. com). Denver-area residents can assess their risk at www.davita.com/kidneyaware.

Overheard At A Little Something in Denver, refugee women make jewelry, learning new skills and earning “a little something.” Their work will be for sale at the World Gift Markets. Courtesy photo in areas of extreme poverty, they help preserve traditions and provide fair wages and a healthy workplace. All products are made by individual artisans working in small groups or cooperatives. Shoppers can find hand-woven silk scarves from Laos, recycled Sari table runners and pillows, handmade paper journals from India, hand-knitted alpaca hats and gloves from Bolivia, Ugandan coffee

and local honey from Earthlinks’ Peace Garden, for example. Earthlinks, a Denver nonprofit started 16 years ago, has grown from a day shelter to a full-fledged craft enterprise that offers productive work to homeless people. It teaches job skills and garden work, which allows for connection with the earth, DeChantal writes. In addition to honey, the Peace Garden’s bees produce beeswax for Natural Spa products.

Eavesdropping on a man to a woman playing cards at an adult day care center in south Denver: “She beats me all the time. Even when I cheat, she beats me.”

Candy canes for kids part of festive event By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com The 53-year-old, 85-member Denver Concert Band, led by Jacinda Bouton, has a family treat planned for its “Russian Holiday” concert at 2 p.m. Nov. 24 at Lone Tree Arts Center. Santa and Mrs. Claus will be there to hand out candy canes to children. The joyous music will also be a treat, featuring Russian and American works. Although Russians were forbidden to celebrate religious holidays for 75 years after the Communist Revolution, they retained a holiday spirit, one learns with a bit of online research. They focused on New Year’s trees and celebrations. However, before and again in the present, St. Nicholas is popular and the Santa who appears on Nov. 24 is cast in his image — the 11th-century Bishop of Myrna in red robes. St. Nicholas performed miracles and the gift-giving was handled by Old Babouschka, who brought presents to kids

The bald and the beautiful Rocky Vista shows support for student battling cancer By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ ourcoloradonews.com There were so many bald heads under Rocky Vista University’s roof, one could have easily mistaken it as a convention for the follically challenged. Instead, it was a head-shaving event in support of Michelle Valentine, a student at the college of osteopathic medicine on Chambers Road north of E-470. Thousands of dollars were raised for the Susan G. Komen foundation, and the camaraderie among the students was further solidified Nov. 1. Valentine, 37, was diagnosed with breast cancer in June. Her chemotherapy treatments have left her completely bald, but she rocks the

look with confidence. When the school wanted to organize a fundraising event, the head-shaving event was a natural choice. Valentine elected to have the money go specifically toward research aimed at helping breast cancer patients under 40, a population she says is underrepresented. The second floor of the university, packed with supporters, buzzed with excitement, nervousness and the sound of clippers run by a handful of stylists from Floyd’s 99 Barbershop. Women lined up to get thin pink extensions in their hair and dozens of men waited to their locks chopped. Some know Valentine, and some don’t. Christopher Gilsdorf, a secondyear Rocky Vista student from Fort Collins, had his hair cut by Nester Bustos, a Floyd’s 99 stylist who participates in at least one community charity event per year. Gilsdorf, who says he knows Valentine “a little,”

raised $50 for the cause. Aside from Valentine, the star of the head-shaving event was Dr. Rebecca Bowden, a Rocky Vista professor who faced the clippers. It was her first time going bald and she admitted to the crowd on hand that it “felt good.” Bowden, who has had Valentine in some of her classes, succinctly summed up her line of thinking about donating time, money and hair on behalf of Valentine. “We’re family,” Bowden said of the small, tight-knit school that opened in 2008. Valentine must undergo radiation treatment and surgery, but her spirits are bright. She was uplifted by the number of people who got involved in the head-shaving event and described it as “one of the coolest things of my life.” She said it speaks to the character of medical students and their willingness to step up for others in need.

Cigarette linked to apartment fire By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ourcoloradonews.com The identity of a person who died in a Castle Rock apartment fire last week still wasn’t available Nov. 11. The Douglas County Coroner’s Office has been working to identify the victim and determine the cause and time of death, according to a Castle Rock news release. Castle Rock police and firefighters responded to the Reserves at Castle Rock Apartments, 1020 Highland Ridge Way, at about 10 a.m. Nov. 7 after apartment maintenance workers there had called 911 to report smoke damage in the unit. The maintenance workers reported that when they had walked by the exterior of the apartment, there was water coming out from underneath the front door. They opened the unit to turn off the water, noticed smoke damage and immediately called 911. Fire crews as well as police arrived on scene and discovered one victim. It is unclear at this time, when the fire started, ac-

your platform,” states the website primer. “It is each of you who must help in guiding the progress of this community for the next few years.” Among the first suggestions the city offers to newly elected officials is to “proceed slowly, ask for help and know the rules.” “Many people will come to you for favors and requests,” the guide states. “As an elected official representing the people, you should not feel obligated to satisfy individual wishes or demands.” Among the other pieces of advice the City offers to new council members: • Learn the Centennial Municipal Code and City Charter, copies of which each re-

cording to the news release. Investigators determined that the fire was accidental, and started when a lit cigarette fell from the countertop into a full trash can and spread to the cabinets in the kitchen. Remains of the cigarette were still on the counter. Rick Auston, Castle Rock’s division chief fire marshal, said Nov. 11 that there was heat, soot and smoke damage throughout the apartment, but the fire damage was isolated to the counter top and trash can. He said a couple things helped extinguish the fire including that the fire ran out of oxygen in the closed apartment and that a water line under a kitchen cabinet “was compromised as a result of the fire” and acted as a sprinkler. In addition, the “apartments are very well built too,” which could have helped stop the fire’s spread, he said. The apartments have fire resistant walls with one-hour ratings, which means it takes one hour for a raging fire to breach the wall and reach a neighboring unit, according to the news release. Investigators discovered that smoke detectors in the apartment had been disabled.

ceives before taking office. • Read and review minutes from previous city council meetings as well as previous city budgets. • Get to know and be available to homeowners’ associations in your district. • Review all staff reports and meeting packets prior to each council meeting. “Meetings flow better if everyone knows the topics and has read their materials,” the post-election guide advises. The guide also encourages decorum and advises new council members, when attending council meetings, to address each other using Mr. and Ms. or Councilmember and then by their last names. “Strive for good will and a spirit of cooperation among the council members. This does not mean that votes must be unanimous or that debate should not take place. However, respect and courtesy present better to the public.”

Emergency exercise held at high school Hundreds take part in active shooter drill By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Emergency equipment lined the streets in the area around Englewood High School Nov. 8 so about 300 first responders could take part in exercises coordinating the response to an active shooter inside the building. To make the exercise as real as possible, more than 135 volunteers willingly let makeup artists create wounds and injuries on their bodies. The list of volunteers included 55 drama students from an Aurora high school as well as EHS students. The first of three scenarios began about 8 a.m. A team of officers wearing body armor and gas masks entered the building. The explosions and gunfire echoed through the hall before the area was declared clear. Then, firefighters and paramedics went into the high school to help the victims of the shooting. The walking wounded were escorted out and paramedics set up a triage to evaluate the injuries at the corner of Logan and Mansfield. The most seriously “injured” were loaded into ambulances and taken to either Swedish Medical Center or Littleton Adventist Hospital. Englewood police and fire departments hosted the exercises involving six law enforcement agencies, three fire departments, three private ambulance companies, two hospitals and Tri-County Health Department “We have been working on plans for the day’s exercises since January,” Police Cmdr. Gary Condreay said. “The goal was to develop coordinated response to a situation

we hope never happens.” Englewood High School administrators and staff were also part of the exercise. “This was a valuable experience for us,” said Jonathan Fore, EHS principal. “We learned a lot about what will happen should we have such a situation in our building.” Rose Lynch, city emergency management specialist, was executive director of the exercise. In her press release about the exercise, she said a debriefing was held at the end of the event to discuss how things went and, if there any areas for improvement. The statement said that further analysis will be conducted in coming weeks and incorporated into an after-action report that will be shared with all the agencies taking part in the exercises.

Mock stock market challenges students Douglas County students compete in lively contest By Jane Reuter

jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com A Mountain Vista High School team won a first place in the Nov. 7 Junior Achievement Stock Market Challenge. The 10th annual event drew 220 teams of students from around the metro area to a mock version of the trading floor recreated at the University of Denver’s Cable Center. Participating Douglas County high schools included Rock Canyon, Douglas County, Castle View, Ponderosa, ThunderRidge and Highlands Ranch. Teams compete to grow a mock portfolio to its highest net worth, investing $500,000 in stock in 26 fictitious companies. The event condenses two months of trading into an hour, with each trading day lasting about a minute. Periodic news releases are issued to reflect fictitious world events and industry developments, causing stock

prices to fluctuate. “Beyond teaching them the obvious, like teaching them about capital markets, how the stock market works and individual wealth building, they’re working as a team,” said Robin Wise, CEO of Rocky Mountain Junior Achievement, “learning things like critical thinking, problem solving, competing, working in teams. Competition is an integrated aspect of business.” The event is tailor-made for the at-risk students in Highlands Ranch High School’s Alternative Cooperative Education (ACE) program, said ACE teacher Joe Chandler. “These students feel disenfranchised, either because of a tough academic or tough home program,” Chandler said. “For most of them, school lacks relevance. They see the world from a very practical point of view. “Here, they get to see how money is a tool, how to use money to make money. They see that they can compete as well as anybody else. When they see that, they are enormously motivated.” Chandler’s students, eyes

The newly designed pocket map for South Suburban trails includes everything you need to know to make your use of our park trail system a pleasure.

You asked–we answered! The South Suburban Park Foundation working with Chamber Investors and community members recently revised their website to provide on-line south metro community trail maps. Available now at www.sspf.org, trail visitors can download a new, or favorite, trail route from one of the dozens within the stellar trail and greenway system right in our neighborhood. Whether you’re at home planning your next visit or on the trail deciding where to explore, you can immediately pull up a current map on your computer or mobile device. Trail information provided includes mile-

age, elevation and a general overview of trail features and amenities. The South Suburban Parks Foundation also has included information about user safety and surrounding habitat and environmental features. Maps are available both digitally as well as a pocket-sized printed version. Click www.sspf.org for trail updates, maps (downloadable or complimentary copy), community happenings, and to sign up to receive e-mail snippets. We would like to thank the South Metro Chamber and the community members who shared their ideas to implement this new feature!

Metro State and Colorado Heights Universities Partner to improve student success Chamber Investors Metropolitan State University of Denver (MSU Denver) and Colorado Heights University (CHU) have partnered to authorize general studies and business core transfer credits toward a Bachelor of Science degree in one of five business disciplines: accounting, computer information systems, finance, management and marketing. “This partnership focuses on removing perceived barriers to education, while encouraging greater diversity of ideas and backgrounds in our programs,” says Ann Murphy, dean of the MSU Denver School of Business. “Both universities feel that, through this arrangement, we can attract new students that may not otherwise consider either institution individually.” Fifteen courses, equating to more than three semesters of classes, now are preauthorized for transfer to MSU Denver with a grade of C or higher. CHU students must meet all of MSU Denver’s standard admission and application requirements.

“Whether our students come from the local neighborhoods or from countries overseas, students can receive individualized support at CHU at the start, to assist them in getting acclimated to the college experience, and then move on to a much larger academic offering at MSU Denver,” says Doug Bjerkaas, CHU chief operating officer, adding that this partnership with MSU Denver is the first of its kind and it gives us the opportunity to provide additional options to students we strive to serve. MSU Denver and CHU have advisers to help students get credits transferred. CHU’s next program cycle starts Oct. 28 and MSU Denver’s application deadline for the spring semester is Nov. 18. Another benefit to the partnership allows students to live in student housing on the CHU campus at an affordable student rate, ranging from $180 to $400 a month. CHU’s dorms are just 1.5 miles from the Englewood light-rail station, providing easy access to downtown Denver and

oN tHE oFFENSIVE Creek, Valor advance in football playoffs Bruins secure 49-14 win against Overland By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Cherry Creek abandoned its usual reliance on running the football, as the Bruins employed a balanced offensive scheme and produced a 49-14 second-round Class 5A playoff victory Nov. 8 over Overland in a second round Class 5A state playoff game. Quarterback Cameron Brucker completed 18 of 26 passes for 302 yards and four touchdowns as the Bruins defeated the Trail Blazers for the second time this season. Mikey McCauley caught six of Brucker’s passes for 95 yards and two touchdowns. Creek still ran the ball as Milo Hall rushed for 145 yards on 17 carries and scored one touchdown. Nathan Starks gained 116 yards on 11 totes and scored a pair of TDS for the Bruins who finished with 583 yards of total offense. Overland was held to 32 yards rushing by the Bruins defense. Cherry Creek (10-1) moves into a quarterfinal game against Centennial League rival Cherokee Trail (9-2). The game is set for 7 p.m. Nov. 15 at the Stutler Bowl. The Cougars, last year’s Class 5A state runners-up, lost a league game to Cherry Creek Oct. 4. Cherokee Trail missed an extra point with 29.3 seconds remaining and dropped a 28-27 decision to the Bruins in a game played at Legacy Stadium. In other second-round Class 5A games played Nov. 8, defending state champion Valor Christian jumped to a 42-3 halftime lead and cruised to a 49-17 triumph over Ralston Valley as the Eagles stretched their state playoff winning streak to 15 games. Valor (10-1) will continue its quest for a fifth consecutive state title in a Nov. 15 quarterback game against Columbine (10-1). The 7 p.m. game will be played at Valor Stadium. Eagles quarterback A.J. Cecil completed 19 of 23 passes for 278 yards and four touchdowns. Christian McCaffrey rushed for 121 yards and two scores and caught six passes for 110 yards and a pair of TDs. McCaffrey, committed to play for Stanford, has scored 32 touchdowns this season After opening the season 1-1 against two formidable out-of-state opponents, Valor has scored 461 points in the past nine games for an average of 51.2 points a game. ThunderRidge (10-1), which lost to Valor in last season’s semifinals, romped to a 56-35 win over Doherty at Shea Stadium. The Grizzlies will play Grandview (7-4) in a Nov. 16 quarterfinal game at Legacy Stadium starting at 1 p.m. ThunderRidge defeated the Wolves, 21-7, in a Sept. 13 non-league game. Quarterback Brody Westmoreland ac-

The 6-foot senior who going to San Diego State to play baseball rushed for 152 yards and four touchdowns and threw three scoring passes. Undefeated and top-seeded Fairview outscored Douglas County 21-0 in the second half enroute to a 45-17 win over the Huskies in a game played a Boulder’s Recht Field. Douglas County trailed only 21-17 near the end of the first half and had a first down at the Knights’ 1-yard line. However, the Huskies wound up missing a 31-yard field goal.

On its first possession of the second half, Douglas County drove to the Fairview 6-yard line but failed to convert on fourth down. Standout Douglas County back Trey Smith was held to 87 yards rushing but he did haul in four passes for 81 yards and a touchdown. Lutheran gave No. 2-seed Palisade all it could handle before dropping a 35-25 decision in a Class 3A first round road playoff game Nov. 9. The Lions (8-3) trailed only 28-25 but Palisade scored with two minutes remaining to seal the victory.

Grandview takes state 5A volleyball championship Arapahoe falls one win shy of top trophy By Jim Benton

jbenton@ ourcoloradonews.com Arapahoe concluded its best girls volleyball season in school history but came up a win shy of winning the state championship. Grandview swept the Warriors 25-22, 25-12, 25-17 to win the Class 5A championship Nov. 9 in the finale at the Denver Coliseum. It was the ninth appearance in a state championship match in the past 11 seasons for Grandview and the Wolves’ fourth state title. It was only the Warriors’ second trip ever to the state tournament. “This was the best season we’ve ever had in Arapahoe history,” said Warriors coach Cara Syers. “We had one state berth prior to this and we lost in pool play. So this is our first year ever of getting to the state championship. Our three losses this season were to Grandview. They were a clear No. 1 it’s clear to say.” All four semifinal teams were from the Centennial League as Arapahoe defeated Eaglecrest 25-10, 25-21, 23-25, 25-20 to advance into the finals. Grandview downed Cherry Creek 11-25, 2927, 25-23, 25-18. “We knew our schedule prepared us well,” added Syers. “We knew what we had to face against Grandview and we did for the most part. It was like the perfect storm. Everything went their way, every net serve and every free ball. It went their way

for sure.” Arapahoe, coming off a short rest after its semifinal match, jumped ahead 8-4 in the first set but failed to come up with the key points after the Wolves tied the set at 20-all. “We didn’t get it (first set) and they just rolled,” admitted Syers. The second and third sets were not close as the top-seeded Wolves (27-2) took charge. “I couldn’t be more proud of our girls for their heart and determination they showed all season,” said Syers. “It was a wonderful season just a little short of where we wanted but really you don’t focus on that. You focus on this season as a journey. Second-seeded Arapahoe ended the season with a 25-3 record. Cherry Creek (22-6) appeared to have Grandview on the ropes in the semifinal, winning the first set 25-11 and having a chance to capture the second before but lost 29-27. The Wolves prevailed in the final two sets, 25-23 and 25-18. “There was a call at the end (of the second set) whether we hit the ball or not,” recalled Bruins coach Sally Moos. “They gave them the point and kind of gave them the momentum. We didn’t put enough balls away. They have two big outside hitters and they put a few more balls away. “But I’m really proud of our kids. That was the third time we played them. We knew each other. We did some good things, we just didn’t have enough to win the match.” Ponderosa (16-11), which finished second in the Class 5A Continental League, lost in the Class 4A semifinals to Air Acad-

The Kadets won 26-24, 2520 and 25-15. “It was tremendous to be here and we were more that excited,” said Ponderosa senior Merry Hammack. “We overcame so many obstacles but we just got better. I feel bad for the loss and the end of our season but this has been a family and we are so grateful for all that supported us.” Ponderosa wound up with a 16-11 record. Two-time defending Class 2A state champions Lutheran made it to the state championship match but the Lions were swept by undefeated and topseeded Resurrection Christian 25-18, 25-19 and 25-13. “We were very pleased,” said coach Alicia Oates whose second-seeded Lions finished 25-3. “Resurrection was a very solid team. They have a lot of offensive power so it was hard to slow any one of them down because they would come back with something else. They were really good. But even getting into that game was a huge accomplished for these girls.

“A lot of people, even ourselves at times, underestimated what we were capable of but they always kept working hard and kept focused on what they needed to do to be successful. They really surprised a lot of people and had a lot of fun doing it. Being in the state tournament is exciting and being in that Parade of Champions is a memory we will have for a lifetime.” Continental League champion Mountain Vista lost 3-1 to Cherry Creek in the deciding game in Pool 4 while Castle View dropped both its matches in Pool 1 in the Class 5A opening matches. Valor Christian lost both its matches in Class 4A, Pool 3 play. Chaparral coach T.R. Ellis was given the Pioneer Award during a special awards ceremony. Ellis has been the head coach at Chaparral for 16 seasons and won state titles in 2010 and 2011.

Weaver enjoys run of success Mountain Vista senior meets most of his goals By Jim Benton

jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Connor Weaver is always being questioned. People want to know why he keeps on running. “That’s the question everybody asks,” explained Weaver. “Why run? You almost have to be a different human being to get joy out of it. I like how in running you can always progress and get better. “I like being in shape, I like competing and I like being outdoors. I played almost every single sport coming into high school.

I definitely wasn’t planning on being a cross country, track runner. I was going to play lacrosse, football, basketball but I ended up falling in love with running because it was so challenging. I was naturally pretty good at it and I do enjoy it.” Weaver, a senior at Mountain Vista, turned out to be a darn good runner and has been tabbed Colorado Community Media’s South Metro Boys Cross Country Runner of the Year. “I met most of my goals,” said Weaver. “I had a goal that I wanted to win state but then Cerake (Geberidane) obviously had a real good year. He is probably one of the best runners in the nation so it’s not too bad to be behind him. It’s not too big of a disappointment anyway.”

Denver East’s Geberidane won the state cross country meet in record time of 15:48.2. Weaver finished third in 16:34.5 but led the Golden Eagles to their second straight boys team championship. Weaver was the Continental League champion and ran second to Pine Creek’s Zachary Alhamra in the regional meet. Alhamra was second behind Geberidane at the state meet. “I improved a ton especially from last year,” Weaver said. “From my freshman year it’s just been leaps and bounds in improvement. I was injured freshman, sophomore and junior years. Small little things that kept my running back and I had big injuries too. This year I was completely injury free.”

Senior Emily Wolff was captain of the Arapahoe girls cross country team and admits it was a learning experience. “Being the captain for the team helped me learn a lot about leadership and running for the team and not just for yourself,” said Wolff. “When you are going through the most painful part of the race you have to think about how each stride you take and each person you pass is not just for yourself but for the team.”

Wolff finished ninth in the state meet and made enough strides to be named Colorado Community Media’s South Metro Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year. “I was excited to learn that I got the award,” proclaimed Wolff, who ran 10th in the 2012 state cross country championships. “I didn’t meet my PR from last season (18:05) but I met most of the goals I had for the season. I was excited that I finished better than I did last year. “You always want to finish as high as you can and close to the top but I was still excited I improved.” Wolff was crowned the regional champion with a time of 18:46 and ran a 19:32.7 at the meet to better last fall’s state meet finish. “I love cross country,” said Wolff. “It’s kind

PICKING THE ATHLETES OF THE YEAR CHOOSING COLORADO Community Media’s South Metro Athletes of the Year was a combined effort. Area coaches were asked for their thoughts, and their input was weighed heavily when CCM’s sports staff made the final selection for each sport. ELIGIBLE ATHLETES come from all the high schools in Douglas County, the high schools in the Littleton Public Schools District and from Cherry Creek High School. of up to you what you are going to put into cross country and what you are going to get out. It’s all about the strength you have and not just the physical strength but the mental aspect. You just learn from it like life lessons, it’s much bigger than yourself, much bigger than the sport.”

Pirates have new girls hoops coach By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Thomas Rode, new Pirates girls basketball coach, said he has held been holding voluntary practices where he pushed the players hard, because he said he feels the athletes want to improve and become a better basketball team. “We have been working hard on conditioning, and plus the girls are learning the plays I want us to use in the games,” the coach said Nov. 11. “We have been running a demanding schedule and the girls are sticking with us. I’m happy because the players are sweating but they are still smiling.” The Pirates began official practice Nov. 13. They have a couple weeks of practice

on tap before they open the season Dec. 3 in a non-league game on the road at Denver North. The first home game of the season will be at 7 p.m. Dec. 4 against Alameda. Home games will be on the Englewood High School campus but not in the familiar confines of the field house. That is because the field house is undergoing renovation, so all winter sports practices and games have been moved to the newly constructed structure that will become the junior high school gymnasium. Rode graduated from the University of Wyoming and worked with teams at the school, including women’s basketball, as a graduate assistant. He came to Colorado 15 years ago and spent eight seasons as the assistant girls basketball coach at ThunderRidge High School. “They hired a new head coach at ThunderRidge about the same time I heard

about the search for a new head coach here at Englewood,” the Hay teacher with 10 years in the school district said. “I felt it would be a good fit for me so I applied and they decided to hire me.” He held some voluntarily practices and said he was excited because the girls showed a lot of heart and were willing to work hard to become a better basketball team. “The girls are enthusiastic and willing to learn,” the new coach said. “We have been working on a number of issues including a better understanding of the game and how to be successful.” Rode said he has a trio of seniors, Katie Kavinsky, Elijah Daughtry and Miranda Holman, who are returning letter winners and who have stepped up to be the early team leaders. The three seniors agree they are learning from the new coach and they feel all the hard work will mean an improved Pi-

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Ponderosa’s bid to win the Class 4A state boys soccer title ended in a Nov. 6 semifinal loss to Air Academy. The tough loss concluded a stellar boys soccer season for the Mustangs. They finished second in the Continental 5A/4A League with an 8-2-1 record, which earned them the No. 5 seed at the state tournament. The competition at state is always tough, and this year was no exception. In the first round, Ponderosa bested Kennedy 1-0 and they won the second-round game Nov. 2 against Summit by the score of 2-1. A major battle developed Nov. 6 in the quarterfinal game against Denver North. The Vikings scored first and had a 1-0 advantage at halftime. Ponderosa tied the score with a second-half goal and sent the contest into overtime. When a game is tied at the end of regulation, teams play 15-minute overtime in a so-called golden goal format, which means the team that scores the first goal wins. Ponderosa prevailed in the first overtime period and scored the goal to earn the 2-1 victory. The Mustangs advanced to the Nov. 6 semifinals against Air Academy but the Kadets took control and won the game, 4-0. The Mustangs finished the season with a 14-4-1 record. Colton Carr was the team’s leading scorer as he took 37 shots on goal, scored 17 goals and made four assists.

I think we’ll be a better team. Soccer is my favorite sport but I love playing basketball too.” Kavinsky, a three-year varsity basketball player, said this season there is a better coach-to-player relationship. “Our new coach is in charge and he pushed us hard,” she said. “That sounds hard but I know it will help us get better. The coach has pushed me to work harder and I find I am improving how I play defense and I am learning how to score more points this season.”
