‘Kyra lived — and she had a blast’

Q&A WITH DOUGLAS COUNTY INTERIM SUPERINTENDENT

Kane eyes change in culture By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Erin Kane took over as the interim superintendent of the Douglas County School District on Sept. 1. Kane, a Colorado native with an engineering degree in applied mathematics and computer science from the University of Colorado, helped found American Academy, a charter school with campuses in Castle Pines and Parker. Executive director since 2013, she pointed to her leadership of the school’s community in her bid to win the job. In July, Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen left the district to take the same position in the Humble Independent School District near Houston. While Kane has signed on for a year-term in the interim, a search Kane for a permament replacement is ongoing. Colorado Community Media sat down with Kane last week for a question-andanswer session.

Tell us about your background I grew up here in Colorado. I went to Arapahoe High School and then I went on to the University of Colorado in Boulder. I went to the engineering college, where I got a degree in applied mathematics and computer science. I spent about 10 years in the high-tech industry. I lived through the bubble and the burst, which was a very interesting experience, as you can imagine. When our kids were born, the wheels came off at home. My husband is also a full-time engineer, so we made the decision that I would stay at home, which I did for a very brief period of time. Then, I decided to start a charter school.

Community remembers Castle View senior killed in crash By Jessica Gibbs jgibbs@coloradocommunitymedia.com Learn to live as Kyra did. That was the message as Kyra Connolly’s loved ones commemorated her life. Connolly was killed in a three-vehicle accident on Sept. 20 just blocks from Castle View High School in Castle Rock. The 17-year-old senior was described by family and friends as someone who cared for all she knew — and she knew many.

Hundreds gathered at the Sept. 25 memorial service at The Rock Church in Castle Rock. With a strong presence from her father’s colleagues at the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, and from peers at Castle View High School, nearly every seat was filled. Even more stood at the Connolly rear of the sanctuary. Most wore tie-dye to honor the free-spirited Connolly. Fam-

ily friend Tim Sayer said the town had been picked clean of tie-dye: He went to four stores before finding a shirt. Color brightened the church sanctuary in a way it very likely hadn’t before, commented Kyra’s father, Mike, a sergeant with the sheriff’s office. “She put everybody before herself,” he said. Boxes of tissues circulated throughout the room as several speakers told stories, shared memories, and laughed and cried with mourners.

A glimpse of the people in our community

NICOLE NAGELI

Teenager, author About me I’m a 13-year-old entrepreneur who is funny, creative and smart. I turned 13 last month and, so far, being a teenager is pretty awesome! Starting my own company, N3 Cartoons, at 12 years old made me realize that nothing is impossible no matter how young you are. Also, I am a huge Sherlock fan. This summer when we went to London, I visited 221B Baker Street and was so excited to see other Sherlock fans. Inspired at a young age My dad has lots of Asterix, Tintin and Calvin & Hobbes comic books! I’ve been reading them since I was a kid. I love how Asterix has all of these puns, Tintin’s action-packed stories, and Bill Watterson’s amazing drawings of Calvin and Hobbes. I also love Sarah Andersen and Cassandra Calin’s comics! They both are so funny and capture daily life perfectly. All of these inspired me to create my own storylines and drawings. Becoming a graphic novelist It has been an amazing experience writing “The Adventures of Kate the Cat.” I came up with the idea while drawing in my sketchbook. I drew a cat several times and gave it funny expressions. I then started dreaming up names for her. I kept asking my family what they thought. “Ooh! I know! Her name will be Kate!” Then, I imagined Kate had a whole life around her. I made Kate’s personality a mix of my own personality. All of the other characters are a mix of the personalities of my friends, family and others.

At 12 years old, Nicole Nageli started her own company and published a graphic novel. Courtesy photo It was really, really hard sometimes with school and all the other things I was doing. It took a long time to write and draw much more than I initially thought. I’m super happy that I wrote a book and published it on Amazon. Why reading opens the mind I think reading is very important as it sparks your imagination. Kids my age have so many options, like watching TV, playing video games, etc., but I think reading opens up your mind. Reading different genres and formats of books helps to develop a broad perspective on the world around us and develop our own opinions. Looking forward I will continue writing books and build my company N3 Cartoons so I can promote more of my books. I am working on my next book. It will come out in early December. Kate and friends return with a new character and it is based in Castle Rock. Most of the plot revolves around the star lighting that happens in Castle Rock. I really would like to see one of my graphic novels as a TV series or a movie. If you have suggestions for My Name Is..., contact Jessica Gibbs at jgibbs@colorado communitymedia.com.

South Metro Fire raises $101,000 Members of 17 stations in the South Metro Fire Rescue (SMFR) district helped raise more than $101,000 in this year’s Fill the Boot campaign. Participants stood at storefronts, intersections and other areas using their boots to collect the funds. All proceeds benefit the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA). The annual event is hosted by both the MDA and the International Association of Fire Fighters. The SMFR district covers 179 square miles in Douglas and Arapahoe counties. It serves approximately 203,500 residents within that area, plus the thousands who pass through to work or shop.

Castle View High School senior killed in crash Students remember teen who ‘made everybody smile and laugh’

By Jessica Gibbs jgibbs@coloradocommunitymedia.com Piled into the back of a pickup truck, a group of teenagers left the site of a Sept. 20 crash that had killed a Castle View High School student just hours earlier. Kyra Connolly, 17, a senior, died in a three-vehicle accident that involved a Douglas County School District delivery truck. “She was a free spirit,” said 17-year-old Aubrey Church. “She always made everybody smile and laugh — just a genuine person.” Church hugged and talked with friends who had gathered at the scene of the accident in Castle Rock. According to Church, Connolly was the type of person who was always there when a friend needed her. “She was kind of like the group counselor in a way,” she said. Church, a senior at Castle View High School, met Connolly a year and a half ago. The girls first connected on Instagram, she said. Connolly had reached out to Church, leaving “sweet” comments, which led to texting and ultimately evolved into a friendship. “Everyone knew her,” Church said. “She was so friendly to everyone. I can’t name a person that hates her.” The crash that claimed Connolly’s life occurred just after 10 a.m. at the intersection of Butterfield Crossing Drive and North Sungold Lane, just blocks from the high school. The driver of the school district truck was transferred to the hospital with nonlife-threatening injuries and later released. A third driver was not injured. “The preliminary investigation shows Connolly was driving on the wrong side of the road when her vehicle sideswiped another car, and then collided head-on” with the school district truck, the Douglas County Coroner’s office said in a Sept. 20 news release. The Castle Rock Police Department is still investigating why Connolly crossed to the wrong side of the road. In the stretch where the accident hap-

Sayer, who watched Kyra grow up, spoke about the ways she had impacted his life, even from an early age. When he served overseas, she sent him letters that he still has. And, because she knew he loved Star Wars, she even sent him figurines of the characters. Sayer said it was the kind of personal touch she added to all that she did. “This world can be an ugly one if you are always focused on the bad things,” he said. “Kyra reminded me of the beauty this world has to offer every time she

day in our hallways and classrooms. This is especially true on a day like today. Please take care of one another and know that all of us at CVHS are here to support you.” And Jane Boyd, a junior, recalled how she first met Connolly in math class a couple of years ago. “She was a pretty carefree spirit,” Boyd said. “She had a one-of-a-kind style and dressed like she wanted to and had a oneof-a-kind personality. And you wanted to be around her.” Boyd and other students in the library the day of the accident shared their grief, shock and disbelief over Connolly’s death. “We kind of expected her to walk through that door and say everything was OK,” Boyd said. “I feel like a lot of people our age, we see our peers and ourselves as invincible, like nothing can touch us when something as drastic as this happens. We think it couldn’t happen to us or somebody that we knew.”

Witnesses recount accident Tear-stricken neighbors recalled what they had seen and heard that morning. Nicole Taber said she heard loud screeching before she looked out her kitchen window and saw the crash as it unfolded. “It’s a sight I will never forget,” Taber said, “and I just pray that she didn’t suffer.” A few houses down, Megan Kauffman said she heard a loud bang, then yells to call 911. She looked out from her porch to see people running down the street. After she arrived at the scene, Kauffman and a neighbor looked on as people huddled around Connolly’s vehicle before emergency responders arrived. Others began to hug and cry, she said. “It took me a second to register what I

Community and students react Neighbors reported seeing school officials and grief counselors at the scene of the accident within half an hour. The school district also sent its crisis team to the school to provide support for students and staff. On social media, students used #PrayForKyra and #sabercatstrong to commemorate Connolly. “Please remember that life is fragile #prayforkyra,” wrote a Twitter user. The school district tweeted: “Our thoughts are with the family of the Castle View student who passed away following an accident near the school today.” Principal Rex Corr, in an email notifying parents about the accident and death, expressed the school’s sorrow and sense of community. “I often talk about how Castle View is a family,” he wrote. “This is evident every

smiled.” The night before the memorial, Sayer said he saw Kyra in his son’s smile. He hopes to make more people smile as he moves forward in life. “So I can see her more often,” he said. In the words of her loved ones, Kyra was: fun-loving, a jokester and prankster; a beautiful girl, physically and mentally; strong-willed and sharp as a whip; an optimist with an charismatic smile; a role model to young and old; a caregiver, an inspiration and a fiercely loyal friend. Amid long hugs, tears and smiles, those touched by Kyra’s life collectively celebrated her. “Kyra lived,” her father said. “And she had a blast.”

Recall reimbursements get council approval

Mayor recused himself from the vote

By Jessica Gibbs jgibbs@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Castle Rock Town Council approved the second and final reading of an ordinance that will allow councilmembers who prevail in a recall to seek reimbursements. The vote was 6-0. Mayor Paul Donahue recused himself from the discussion. Donahue won a July recall election for his seat and will finish the remainder of his term, which expires in November.

Under the new policy, he is eligible to seek reimbursements. The ordinance’s second reading clarified two questions councilmembers had posed at the previous meeting. First, it clarified that councilmembers may not seek reimbursements for expenses paid for by donations to the candidate or an issues committee. However, had the councilmember personally donated to the campaign, they could seek reimbursements for those expenditures. Second, the wording was altered to explicitly allow the council to approve all, some or none of the requested reimbursements. District 5 Castle Rock Town Coun-

cilmember Renee Valentine, who was recently the subject of a recall petition, participated in reimbursement discussions for the first time on Sept. 20. The three primary petitioners in Valentine’s recall dropped their effort on Sept. 9. Valentine said she wanted to voice her support for the new policy, having not been able to speak on the issue previously. “Paul and I are the only ones who know what it’s like to go through something like this,” she said. She concluded by saying she believes the ordinance is correct to leave these decisions to the council’s discretion. During the first reading of the ordinance on Sept. 6, Town Attorney Bob

Council approves town budget for 2017

Transportation infrastructure, long-term water plan are priorities

By Jessica Gibbs jgibbs@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Castle Rock Town Council has approved the 2017 town budget. Jennifer Green, the mayor pro tem and District 3 councilmember, was the only councilmember to vote against the proposal on its final reading Sept. 20. Her concern pivoted around the budget’s request for a 1 percent increase in the employer’s contribution to the town’s 401(a) retirement plan, but no request for an increase to employees’

contribution. “I like everything else in the budget,” she said. The $188.4 million budget will focus on the development of transportation infrastructure, the town’s long-term water plan and public safety improvements. It does not call for any increases in taxes, thanks to rising property values that will generate more revenue. At the first presentation in August, property tax revenue was expected to increase by 5.5 percent. That tax rate is anticipated to stay at the 2016 rate of 1.473 mills, or possibly decrease. Also within the budget is $83.1 million for capital improvements, debt and transfers between funds and $105.3 mil-

lion for operations. That’s a 9 percent increase from the cost of operations in 2016, something Town Manager Dave Corliss has said is reflective of Castle Rock’s growth and development. The budget also shows that 2017 expenditures are higher than expected revenue. This is due to planned uses of capital reserves, Corliss said. At the Sept. 6 council meeting, Corliss presented plans to increase impact fees, which help fund Castle Rock’s capital projects. The increases, if approved by council at a later date, would be 9 percent in 2017 and 8.5 percent in 2018. The fees largely impact the development community and are collected as building permits are issued.

Slentz stressed that the ordinance was not drafted to appease any particular councilmember. It came about to provide anyone who serves on the council, present or future, the opportunity to seek reimbursements if they prevail in a recall. The ordinance language was also kept broad, he said, to provide councils the flexibility to award reimbursements on a case-by-case basis. A provision in state statute already allows for councilmembers to seek reimbursements, but the town’s charter is mum on the issue. The ordinance was created to provide council’s direction on a local level, rather than solely rely on the state statute.

Fires in Castle Rock possibly linked to arson Staff report Castle Rock Fire and Rescue is asking the public for its help as the department investigates a series of fires. Three recent fires, including a half-acre fire on Sept. 23, may have been set intentionally, according to a town news release. The Sept. 23 fire occurred near Oman Road and Gilbert Street in southern Castle Rock, near Memmen Ridge Open Space. The fire was contained before it could damage any structures. A lighter found near

the area is a possible link to arson, according to the news release. However, the investigation is ongoing and a cause has yet to be determined. The fire department is asking people to call 911 if they see any suspicious behavior regarding fires. Windy weather conditions heighten the risk of fire. A red flag warning is currently in effect for most of the Front Range. That means critical fire weather conditions exist in the area. People are cautioned to use care around anything that could create a spark or fire.

Parker Libertarian competes for Senate seat

Lily Tang Williams takes on Bennet, Glenn

By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Lily Tang Williams wasn’t born with the freedoms citizens of the United States have long enjoyed. Now that she’s experienced more than two decades of democracy, she wants to protect it. Williams, immigrated to the U.S. from China in 1988, became a citizen in 1995 and moved to Parker 17 years ago. She was born in China’s Sichuan Province just before the Cultural Revolution occurred, and grew up being indoctrinated with pro-government propaganda at school and relying on governmentissued coupons to purchase food. After meeting an American exchange student and reading the Declaration of Independence, Williams decided to pursue her studies in the U.S. After seven attempts at securing a passport and finding an American Fullbright scholar to sponsor, Williams came to the U.S. and never looked back. She first arrived on the political stage when she ran for the Colorado State House of Representatives as a Libertarian in 2014. Williams gained more notoriety with her sense of humor and unconventional ideas during a Sept. 10 debate with Democratic incumbent Sen. Michael Bennet and Republican candidate Darryl Glenn.

Libertarian Lily Tang Williams is challenging incumbent Democrat Michael Bennet and candidate Darryl Glenn, a Republican, for the U.S. Senate. Photo by Tom Skelley “It was fun,” Williams said. “My best part… was my closing statement because I suggested politicians to wear body cameras so we can keep them honest. I actually draw the largest cheers from the crowd.” Williams acknowledged her English isn’t perfect, but she said she relates to voters just the same. “I also talk like regular people, not like career politician,” she said. “That helps.”

cal of government,” she said. “I would like to see people help them at the grassroots level and charities.” Williams had previously chided her husband, John, for being a Libertarian, thinking the group was too small to compete with the two major parties. Eventually, she chose principle over pragmatism. “I said I’m going to stick to my principles. I’m going to join the Libertarian Party,” Williams said. “It doesn’t matter how small it is, I’m going to help it grow.” Williams received 6.4 percent of the vote in her 2014 state House race, no small feat for an unknown third-party candidate. This year she has a bigger campaign and more name recognition, but she remains realistic about her prospects. She said her goal is still to win, but if she doesn’t, she hopes to build a bigger base for her party’s future. Williams said she has seen Democrats and Republicans join Libertarian ranks after becoming disillusioned with their parties’ widely unpopular presidential candidates. She sees the shift as an opportunity for the Libertarian Party to grow and said the fact that Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson is polling at 16 percent in Colorado is proof of that. “I’m hoping to ride that wave and to say `You have a third reliable option,’ ” she said. “You don’t have to go to store and just buy Pepsi or Coke.”

All of the details of her body camera plan, such as how to ensure politicians actually wear the devices, aren’t completely ironed out. But she said paying for the plan could be done by charging a subscription fee for citizens who want to watch their elected officials conduct business in Washington, D.C. “You could actually make a profit on the investment,” she said. Williams came to the United States in 1988 and became a citizen in 1995. She became involved in local politics in 2000, joining the homeowners’ association in the Rowley Downs subdivision and the board of Parker’s Challenge to Excellence Charter School, which her children attended. She registered as a Republican after reading the platform’s position on limited government, but soon became disillusioned. “The Republican Party lost all credibility on limited government,” Williams said. “Under Bush, and with Republicans in control of the White House and both houses of Congress, they grew the government. They also grew the mass surveillance program to keep track of law-abiding citizens with taxpayers’ money. Then by the time they bailed out the banks… I was so mad.” Williams said she had a lot of “compassionate” friends in the Democratic Party, but she didn’t agree with their approach to solving social problems. “The way they want to help them is through government.

Teen boy grows hair for cancer patients

By Jessica Gibbs jgibbs@coloradocommunitymedia.com A Castle Rock high school student started growing out his hair nearly a year and a half ago — just for fun, he said. Then, Brock Johnson, a junior at Douglas County High School, realized he should be doing it with a purpose. “A lot of people in my life were diagnosed with cancer,” the 16-year-old said. First, he lost his aunt to cancer in June 2015. Then, he lost his grandmother last November. More recently, an uncle was diagnosed, in addition to two teachers he said he’s close with at school. So last month, Johnson donated more than 8 inches of hair to the Pantene Beautiful Lengths program. The program creates real-hair wigs for women battling cancer. The wigs are free for the recipients — that was important to Johnson and his mother, Natalie. “Our hopes were for on the other end, someone going through cancer wouldn’t have to pay a ton of money,” Natalie said. Johnson said he’s also happy to have helped raise awareness for both the program and cancer in general. Knowing so many people touched by the disease means it’s a condition he’s familiar with. However, not everyone has that exposure. “I love that he stepped outside of his

world for a little bit to think, `Wow, this is reality for someone else,’ ” Natalie said, “that could be his age.” The process was also an interesting one for Johnson, who’s never grown his hair to such lengths before. It meant for some extra hot days playing catcher for

the varsity baseball team. But, there were also some meaningful lessons. “I learned the impact it has on the people who are diagnosed with it,” he said. Once people realized why he was

growing out his hair, which he at first kept quiet, they were responsive to his cause. Particularly, he said, those who are personally affected by cancer. “It’s such a wonderful, positive thing,” Natalie said. “I couldn’t be prouder of him.”

Building town’s largest vet clinic a family affair Son and father help Dr. Deb turn dream into reality By Jessica Gibbs jgibbs@coloradocommunitymedia.com Building Castle Rock’s largest veterinary clinic and boarding facility has become a family affair. Deborah Patterson, or Dr. Deb as clients know her, has enlisted her son and father to help bring to life the vision she has for the new location of her business, Brooklyn Veterinary Clinic. Under construction, it should be completed by late December. Patterson’s son, Alex Colgin, 20, is helping as a construction laborer until he leaves for the U.S. Air Force. Her father, Jordan Goray, is the estimator and project manager on the job. Goray has been working construction for 33 years, starting as a construction laborer like his grandson. At this stage in his career, however, adding a vet clinic to his list is something new. “I’ve built a lot of buildings,” he said, “but this adds a new dimension.” When she set out to build her own building, Patterson knew she wanted her father involved. “I know my dad will have my back,” she said. Her frugal father has found her the best materials at the best cost. He also keeps a watchful eye on the project’s progress. “He’s been keeping me in check,” Colgin said with a smile. Working with his grandfather has been a good experience, Alex said, along with watching his mother’s clinic develop first-hand. “I thought it was pretty ambitious,” he said. “It’s pretty cool to see something that my mom is going to own.” Once completed, the facility at 1320 Virtuoso Loop in The Meadows will be 8,247 square feet. It will house an animal hospital, surgery area, grooming

It’s a step up from Patterson’s current location, where she’s been for 10 years in an adapted warehouse. She’s excited to offer clients a more efficient space. Providing a service that makes them feel like family is her top priority, she said. “I love what I do,” she said. “Every day.”

Well, were we better than that? So a couple of weeks ago the column I wrote included in the headline, “We are better than that.” Basically the concept was that regardless of the position we find ourselves in, we can rise to the occasion and be better than whatever circumstance we face. We can act better than some of the people that can try and drag us down, and we can provide love, forgiveness, and grace when others cannot. And we do so because we are “better than that.” Well, have we been? Were we better than that over the past few weeks? “Accountability” can be a tough word. And it’s one thing to hold others accountable for being better than that, but have we been able to hold ourselves to the same standard? Or maybe even a higher standard? You see, most of us want to be judged by our intentions, yet we judge others by their actions. We may have “intended” to behave better or offer love, forgiveness or grace, but we found ourselves caught up again in the rush and crush of life and our very best of intentions gave way to our very worst of frustrations. Think back over these past few weeks or even just the past few days. Were there situations where you could have been “better

than that”? Or were there events, meetings or conversations where you stood your ground, rising above the situation and where you look back now and proudly say, “I really was better than that.” None of us is perfect, and we are Michael Norton living in a world of WINNING fear, uncertainty and doubt which someWORDS times can amplify our imperfections. And many of us get a lot of practice at being imperfect, we get many at-bats or chances to learn and grow during our moments of fear, uncertainty, doubt and frustration. And then that word “accountability” shows up again. And I am talking about personal accountability, not just holding those around us accountable. Now as you think back again over these past few weeks or days, and whether you truly were better than that or you still have room to grow, also think about each situa-

tion or communication exchange and ask yourself these three questions; What could I have done differently? What could have I said or worded differently? And what did I really do that I am proud of and hope that I can repeat again if ever in the same situation? Again, the theme of this week’s column is “Were we better than that?” The only way that each of us can honestly answer that question is by reflecting on what has been happening in our own lives, and regardless if it was something good or if has been a challenge lately, look in the mirror and simply ask ourselves if indeed, “Were we better than that?” How about you, were you intending to be better than that? Or were you better than that? Either way I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we hold ourselves accountable for our own actions and not just our intentions, 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.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

mshively@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Johnson offers best choice for U.S. Growing up, I was fortunate enough to learn some timeless values, including being: • Open to new ideas, while respecting differences, being kind and polite, and tolerant of those with differing views. • Honest and doing the right thing, because a reputation of integrity can be so fragile. • Hard-working, responsible, optimistic and doing my best, allowing results to speak for themselves. • Frugal, living within my means. • Supportive of the Constitution that has made our country so special in world history. Government of, by and for the people should also promote these principles, which only one current presidential candidate espouses: the Libertarians’ Gary Johnson. Johnson avows that we are not electing a monarch or a dictator. He has been a successful, two-term governor in a state dominated by the other party — that says a lot. This election, I’m not voting against candidates, but rather for “our best America yet.” You in? Paul H. Zink Centennial

Ramen has a lock on prison society Psst, buddy. You got ramen? If you have ramen in prison, the world is your noodle. Sometime in the early ‘70s, a friend handed me a packet of ramen. It had the look of a drug deal. In a way it was. I have eaten my share of ramen ever since, and there have been occasional cravings that I can’t explain. He said, “Whatever you do, don’t look at the sodium.” One day I looked, and I turned into a pillar of salt. Maybe you read the story: “Ramen has become the black market currency in American prisons.” Michael Gibson-Light, who is a doctoral candidate at the University of Arizona School of Sociology, said, “There is an entire informal economy based on ramen.” He did extensive interviews with prisoners and staff members at a state prison. And they call it soup, not ramen, in the slammer. Gibson-Light noted that prison food allocations were reduced in the early 2000s. Prisoners had been receiving three hot meals a day. That changed. The second meal

was just a sandwich and chips. Weekend lunches were eliminated. Ramen - soup - is “supercheap, supertasty, rich in calories, and readily available in prison commissaries.” It’s “superCraig Marshall Smith tasty”? I think it tastes QUIET sock-laundry DESPERATION like water. But good sock laundry water. Prisoners, like college students and some bachelor columnists, might add any number of things to their soups, to try to enhance them. Vienna sausages, green beans, and carrots make up “dirty ramen.” One former prisoner, Gustavo “Goose” Alvarez, even wrote a book: “Prison Ramen: Recipes and Stories from Behind Bars.”

Jennifer and I tried Goose’s ramen pot roast. Delicious, albeit on the salty side. Prison life used to be an unknown to most of us. We had films that weren’t very graphic or forthcoming. But I think we knew we would rather be at home. Now, almost every night on television, we can see exactly what it is like in an American prison in one factual program after another. There’s a big, big difference between being a free man and an incarcerated man. A friend of mine chose weekend lockup over in-home detention after a DUI, and wishes he hadn’t. If you don’t know about rogue sheriff Joe Arpaio, it’s worth looking into before drinking and driving in Maricopa County, Arizona. There is a program about volunteers who enter prison to see what really goes on in there. Ryan, a volunteer who wants to be a police officer, said, “One thing the public doesn’t know is that in jail, violence is Smith continues on Page 11

Q&A

Continued from Page 1

How did you get involved with American Academy? People don’t start charter schools, certainly not in Douglas County, because there aren’t good choices around them. It’s because they want something very specific. So, that was our case. We had great neighborhood schools in Castle Pines North, which is where I’ve lived for 18 years, but we wanted something different for our kids that included a STEM emphasis. Both of us being engineers, we really felt the future of our country was in the ability to innovate and work in those STEM-career fields. So we started a charter school. We found a friend and another friend and after a while we had about 100 people. American Academy opened up in Lone tree in 2005, with about 390 kids. The rest is kind of history. How did you end up being executive director of the school? As for how I ended up working at the charter school, that was never my intention. I was just a volunteer that helped start it and I was hoping to just pat it on the head and send it on its way. But there came a time when we had a major transition in leadership and the board of directors asked me to step in, just for

a few minutes to sort of get everything under control and hold it together, and I guess I was still there up until (the beginning of this school year). I fell in love with the staff. I fell in love with the work. I fell in love with the kids. What made you decide to apply for the interim superintendent position? I have been watching our school district from the sideline for a number of years. I have been perfectly content running American Academy and doing my thing in a very happy place with happy kids and happy teachers. But continuing to watch it and seeing more and more drama unfold at the school district, I felt more compelled to want to get involved. This is my community. I have lived here for 20 years. My children grew up here. I love Douglas County. I love this community. I have been part of this school district for 12 years. I was having a hard time sleeping at night and just standing by. So I guess I raised my hand and volunteered to help if I could. Were you concerned about the divisiveness of the school board and community? Of course I was. My family and I made a very conscious decision. We knew what I was getting into. But, I signed up for an interim basis and I’m going to do everything I can to leave the district better than I found it and restore a positive culture to Douglas County. I’m here because I love this community. Being superintendent

was not something that I have ever in a million years contemplated or sought in any kind of way.

kind of cultural things need to come all the way from the top down and they need to hear it from me.

What would make this period a success? First and foremost, culture. That’s why I have been going to all of the schools. You may have seen that I have been attempting to go to all 87 schools in five weeks. I’m about halfway through that process… It was very important to me because I wanted to hear from every school leader. What they feel like their challenges are. If they were king or queen for a day, what would they do? At the end of the day, everyone up here, we only have jobs because of the schools. We are here to do what is best for our kids. So I felt like I needed to hear from every one of them before jumping in and making decisions. That’s been my No. 1 priority. To hear their voices and know what I need to address.

How does coming from the charter world shape your perspective? It’s definitely a fresh perspective… I was already running a two-campus 2,000-kid, $17 million budget operation where I was responsible for everything a superintendent is responsible for, from academics, to operations to financial. So it was very much a very mini-school district. That experience, I think, is tremendously helpful. I do have that executive experience to be able to manage all of the aspects of a school organization. No. 2 is that fresh perspective, I have been in the district for 12 years so I do have that understanding of how Douglas County works. I have relationships with people in the district.

Can you describe what you mean by culture? The community wants to know that their voices are heard. They want to know what kind of leader I’m going to be. So it’s been very important to be able to talk to them about my style, which would include things like mistakes. I believe in a culture where making mistakes is perfectly fine. We’re going to be here to help you own it and support you while your owning it and help you fix it and help you learn from it. Not to tear you down. Those

What else do you want people to know about you? I’m really, really excited and I’m really optimistic. I can’t even tell you how optimistic I am. Going to the schools has been amazing. The principals have felt so good about having voice. The schools voices are going to be heard and inform my decisions. I just want what is best for the kids and staff in this district, and I am convinced we are going to a very good place.

Getting hitched in the great outdoors Colorado couples gravitate toward nature for their big day By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com

recurring theme for people who live in Colorado is that they love being outside and active in nature. So it’s only natural a classic Colorado wedding is often centered around an outdoor ceremony. Sharing Colorado’s beautiful scenery with guests was one of Sarah and Allen Griffith’s top priorities when looking for a wedding venue. “Allen and I both share a love for the outdoors and natural landscapes, so it was really important to us to have that be a part of our wedding,” said Sarah Griffith, a Colorado native and former Centennial resident. “We chose Cherokee Ranch and Castle because it was so close to downtown Denver, so our guests could enjoy both the urban charm of the city as well as share Colorado’s incredible scenery with us for our wedding.” After touring the historic castle in Sedalia, the couple — who met after “swiping right” on Tinder — knew it was the place for them. “It was the first and only venue we looked at,” Griffith said. “We loved it so much we booked on the spot.” Sarah and Allen said “I do” at the Castle July 30 and, because of Allen’s position with the United States Army, moved to New York two weeks after the wedding. Like many brides and grooms, their day was a “complete blur and went by way too fast,” Sarah said. “But the weather was perfect, our guests were so incredible and fun, and the venue was a complete

Photo by Jo Ramsey for Elevate Photography fairy tale.” Another rustic venue with a view can be found atop Lookout Mountain in Golden. Atop the mountain sits Boettcher Mansion, which hosts about 300 events a year including weddings. Built in 1917 as a summer home and seasonal hunting lodge for Charles Boettcher, the former Lorraine Lodge was donated to Jefferson County in the 1970s for public use and enjoyment. The mansion is operated by Jefferson County Open Space. The history and the view are what special events coordinator Megan Kreutzer said draws couples to the mansion. “We have a mountain view without the mountain drive,” Kreutzer

said, adding that the character in the historic building allows for minimal decorations. But some Colorado couples are choosing to make their wedding even more nature-centric and adventure focused. Westminster-based wedding photographer Rayna McGinnis specializes in photographing weddings for active couples. “It’s mostly people who are more experience-focused and want to be out in nature,” McGinnis said. “They are not necessarily athletic, but like being in the great outdoors.” McGinnis has photographed couples on their wedding days on mountain bikes, mountain climbing, hiking and enjoying a glass of

wine in nature. “The trend is more couples doing what they want versus what the traditional wedding was 30 or 40 years ago,” she said. “I feel like it’s just couples taking a piece of who they are and putting that into their wedding.” The weddings McGinnis photographs tend to be shorter and with a smaller guest list. While she’s not sure if active weddings have their own culture, like adventure sports do, McGinnis said she does see couples leaning toward more intimate nuptials. “My couples tend to want to see each other,” she said. “It’s a small intimate thing, where they want to remember their wedding day and who they spent their day with.”

A meditation on the beginning of autumn Driving to and from work every day the past couple of weeks has been a daily demonstration of why autumn is Colorado’s best season — blue skies, early dustings of snow on the higher mountains, and a rippling palette of green, yellow, orange and red. With the right music, these sights just sing. The transition from summer to autumn heralds some big stylistic changes for me. I trade all the brashness of summer sounds for bittersweet acoustic guitars, pianos and vocal harmonies. Whereas summer is about brightness — from big horn lines to danceable synths and rhythms — autumn is more introspective and quiet. This embracing of melancholy seems fitting to me, since autumn is often such a swift season in our state. It has barely arrived before branches are bare and we’re shoveling snow. I have so many memories of Halloweens spoiled by the year’s first snowstorm. Of course, one of the most common complaints about the summer-to-fall transition is the cooling temperatures. It means winter is just around the corner, and you can’t go outside in anything less

than jeans, boots and a sweater. But these cooler temperatures and gray days are why the warmth and intimacy of an acoustic guitar is so welcome. Records made by a small group of people in a Clarke Reader room, notes you LINER can actually hear being plucked NOTES always sound more like home. I can’t imagine a better soundtrack to the season than Nick Drake or Fleet Foxes’ staggeringly pretty approaches to folk music. They’re like warm musical blankets. It’s easy to get gloomy this time of year, especially with the aforementioned weather and the desolate-looking scenery. Add in longer nights, and it’s understandable why some people get seasonal affective disorder around autumn. Many of us spend much time and money trying to avoid sadness, which,

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK Selection: Beach Slang’s “A Loud Bash of Teenage Feelings,” released on Polyvinyl Records. Review: Less than a year after their raucous debut, Beach Slang is back with another album of fuzzy guitars and big-hearted feelings. This time the group turns its attention to

let’s be honest, is an impossible task. Autumn shows us the incredible beauty and regenerative nature of sorrow. The right soundtrack does the same thing. I have always loved sad songs more than any other — I find solace in music that embraces life’s somber moments. Put on songs like Bob Dylan’s “If You See Her, Say Hello,” or Zac Brown Band’s “Cold Weather,” and really snuggle into the sadness. There’s a lot of beauty to be heard. Music certainly won’t cure you from any melancholy, but it’s the best way I know to get through it — and even, maybe, benefit from those feelings.

the inspiring and lamentable travails of falling in and out of love, and succeed as only rock music can. You’ll be crying and jumping along. Favorite song: “The Perfect High” Favorite turn of phrase: “I got a halo on my heart.” — from “Spin the Dial”

So, as you’re putting away your summer clothes, my advice is to do the same for your summer music. Pull out what makes you feel warm and comfortable — something that feels lived in and welcoming. It will have to last you through winter. Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week.

Story looks at life amid two cultures ‘The Oldest Boy’ plays at Aurora’s Vintage Theatre

IF YOU GO “The Oldest Boy” plays through Oct. 23 at Vintage Theatre, 1468 Dayton St., Aurora. Performances: 7:30 p.m. Fridays, Saturdays; 2:30 p.m. Sundays and Saturday Oct. 1. Tickets: $15-$30, vintagetheatre.com, 303-856-7830.

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com Lights go up on “The Oldest Boy” as the mother (Candace Joice) sits in an Asian contemplative pose, in meditation. The time is “modern day,” according to well-recognized playwright Sarah Ruhl. The set, designed by Douglas Clarke, is a contemporary New York apartment, with an interesting — and changeable — backdrop of large sheets of torn paper, which suggests distant mountains in Act II. The regional premiere is a collaboration between Vintage Theatre and Theatre Esprit Asia. Sounds from an awakening child drift into the mother’s ears. There is a knock at the door … When the woman opens it, she finds a smiling pair of robed Asian monks (Peter Trinh and Robert Payo) who make small talk about her husband’s Tibetan restaurant as she serves them tea. When the husband (Charlee Chiv) arrives home, the purpose of their call becomes clear — the oldest boy in Tibetan families may be chosen to live with the

able skill, which will no doubt increase in the next weeks. Puppet designer Sushma at one time worked with Sutradhar Puppet Theatre at Shri Ram Center in New Delhi. She is an artist, published poet and playwright. In this production she is one of three puppeteers, clad in sheer black, who move and speak as the oldest boy. The other puppeteers are Deepali Lindblom and Kenneth Berba. Act II finds the mother trying to meditate in India, near the Tibetan monastery, pregnant with another child and heartbroken as she sees her little boy with a shaven head and monk’s garb. Director Craig Bond has produced a delicate, engaging piece of theater with a mix of cultures that seems very appropriate today as we strain to understand our complex world.

Peter Trinh, as a monk, shaves the head of a boy (puppet) who is chosen to live with the monks in Sarah Rule’s moving play, “The Oldest Boy,” at Vintage Theatre in Aurora. Courtesy photo monks at their remote monastery and perhaps become a lama. The father understands, but the mother is terrified. Flashback to the parents’

Sharks, maggots and ‘A’ for armpits

Nate Osborn and stepson Dylan Armour, 11, wrote a new kind of ABC book to help get young boys interested in reading. Courtesy photo

Local 11-year-old joins with stepfather to write a ‘disgusting and inappropriate’ book for boys By Jessica Gibbs jgibbs@coloradocommunitymedia.com Dylan Armour, an 11-year-old from Castle Rock, thinks too many children’s books are written only for girls. “There’s like thousands and thousands and thousands of princess books,” he said. He’s always enjoyed reading, but Armour said the amount of books written on topics appealing to young boys is limited. So he and his stepfather, Nate Osborn, decided to change that. Over the past year Armour and Osborn paired up to write an ABC book that is so gross and shocking it might just capture a little boy’s attention the whole way through. “The Disgusting and Inappropriate ABC Book (That You Can’t Tell Your Mom About),” written by Osborn and illustrated by Clockwise Productions, is available on Amazon. In Osborn’s version of the ABCs, A is for armpits — specifically the sticky, smelly and disgusting ones. E is for eye gunk and earwax. G is for gingivitis and a friendly reminder to brush your teeth. However, that’s just the beginning. This book has sharks, maggots, killer jelly fish and a smorgasbord of things you can’t tell

your mom about. The issue isn’t just about entertaining young boys, Osborn said. It’s also about providing material that will hold their attention and teach them the importance of reading. Osborn is working to have the book

Mobiles bring grace to Littleton Museum Mattie O’s win in show led to one-person exhibit

“Kiki’s Aspen Dress,” papiermache and brass (2016), is included in the “In Suspension” exhibit by Mattie O, winner of “Best of Show” in the 2015 Own an Original at Littleton Museum. (The winner is rewarded with a solo show the following year.) Photo by Kevin Oehrle

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com From engineering to Ikebana to mobiles, artist Mattie O has followed a winding path to her exhibit, “In Suspension” which opened Sept. 16 in Littleton. The Littleton Museum gallery where Mattie O’s “In Suspension” hangs is transformed into a magical spot where the slightest bit of breeze sets her mobiles into gentle motion. As thehy move, the lighting hits different spots on the colorful blossoms and leaves, adding interest. Also exhibited are dresses that made me think of Titania, Queen of the Fairies in “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” They float and shimmer. The dresses are suspended from graceful curved stands and look ready to dance. Each leaf or flower that decorates the skirts or hangs in the mobiles is individually hand-made, said Mattie O, the artist who won Best of Show in the 2015 “Own an Original” exhibit. That win entitled her to a one-person show this fall, which means she has been working steadily in the studio at her home in Monument, creating the thousands of tiny flowers and leaves and shapes that flutter in the museum gallery. There are 32 works in the show, including several collages. She has been creating this imaginative world for only three or four years, she said, after retiring and taking up watercolor — “like other older woman.” At 60, she is busy working with a new medium, abaca fiber, that “is well-known in the paper world,” she said. She receives it in five-gallon buckets and works with it and with papier mache. “I like the organic nature of abaca,”

she said. She is part of a Facebook group of paper artists who went to Vietnam in November. (She missed the opening where her win was announced.) There, they met a man who fashions tiny insects from paper. Surprisingly, she came out of a career as a civil engineer. “I didn’t play with dolls as a child — I had my Erector Sets!” (Her mother was an elementary school art teacher, so there was some expo-

sure to the arts.) She was one of few women engineers who worked with offshore oil. And she designed the astronauts’ backpacks they wear to fly around and make repairs. She also went to law school and practiced environmental law for 20 years, including litigation regarding the Rocky Mountain Arsenal, now a nature preserve. “When I retired, I became a hermit, a ski bum and lived in a one-room log cabin. At 45, I started art classes, but

don’t have a degree. When I retired at 50, I took botanical illustration classes at the Denver Botanic Gardens. That sharpened my drawing skills.” She also learned Ikebana, the art of Japanese flower arrangements, which influences her art. In this exhibit, various skills come together: the botanical — and a little engineering to make sculptures balance, she observed. And technical skills helped when it came time to move the collection up to Littleton Museum. Some things moved flat on insulation board. Some were carefully packed in boxes. Others hung from the roof of the van she rented to transport her work. All her pieces were assembled with planning and lighting by museum curator Kevin Oehler. “There’s something fanciful about mobiles. They snag our imagination and spirits. I’m a huge fan of Alexander Calder. Of his whimsical mobiles, it was said `His mobiles occupy one’s mind without constraining it and guide one’s thoughts to blissful pathways.’ (Patrick Waldberg.) That’s my aim. My mobiles are constructed using papers imported from Japan, Thailand and Nepal or paper I have made from abaca fiber. I use artists acrylic gloss medium and varnish so that blossoms and leaves are durable, washable and archival …,” said Mattie O. Enjoy a light-hearted visit to “In Suspension.”

Tykes take time to test top toys Goddard School students and staff try out holiday items By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Toy manufacturers from across the United States are relying on young test subjects in Parker to predict which toys will be the big sellers this holiday season. The Goddard School for Early Childhood Development on Pine Drive is in the ninth year of a partnership with The Manhattan Toy Company, VTech, Toy Monster and other companies to give feedback on the games and toys most popular with children from infancy to kindergarten. Students play with the items for weeklong study, after which teachers and the school’s board will give the manufacturers their recommendations. The school’s owner, Dan King, said the arrangement gives data to the toy producers, but it also has benefits for the school and its parents. “It shows the parents that we care and want to see that the toys are highly educational and fun for the kids,” King said. “It gives the parents an idea of what the top toys are to buy for the holidays. Toys are expensive and this helps them figure out which ones are the best value.” The testing may tell manufacturers which of their products are most popular and durable, but the tests aren’t solely about maximizing profits. The school is allowed to keep the toys they test, and King said Goddard donates 100 of the same items to Toys for Tots. Elena Comstock, a toddler teacher in her second year at Goddard, said the arrival of exciting new toys in the classroom can lead to new friendships among the children. “Sometimes the kids have a tendency to just go around with their best friend,” she said. “It’s nice to see them go off and play with someone other than the person

games or use them in a different way.” Kindergarten teacher Brittnie Pearson said she rates the toys based on their educational value and whether groups of children can enjoy them together or individually. Another important quality the toys

must have to garner the teachers’ recommendations is durability. A toy that can withstand being used by several children, several times a day is a toy that will likely last. As Pearson said, “we look for things that aren’t going to break.”

How to choose the right residential care facility

hoosing a residential care facility may seem like an overwhelming task, but asking the right questions and knowing what you should be looking for in a facility can make it more manageable. Because residential care is available in a variety of settings, it’s important to understand the needs of the person with dementia so you can choose the best care.

The first step, according to the Alzheimer’s Association, is understanding what kind of care facilities can provide. And the second step is to ask the right questions.

TYPES OF FACILITIES RETIREMENT HOUSING: This can be appropriate for individuals in the early stage of Alzheimer’s who can still care for themselves independently. There is limited supervision, social activities, transportation and other amenities.

ASSISTED LIVING: This bridges the gap between living independently and in a nursing home. It typically offers a combination of housing, meals, supportive services and health care.

Online resources for seniors only a click away Douglas County introduces Senior Life and NearMeDC online tools Are you in the 60-plus age group in Douglas County? If so, you are part of the county’s most dramatic percentage of population growth — and two online tools have been created just for you: Senior Life in Douglas County the NearMeDC Community Resources tool. Both online tools are in direct response to a 2013 survey of seniors, their caregivers, and those planning to retire in Douglas County, 90 percent of who indicated they would use online tools to find information specifically targeting this age group. According to the State Demography Office, by 2030 one in four residents of Douglas County will be aged 60 or older. That’s approximately 24 percent of the county’s population. The conception of these online tools began in 2012 when, knowing the demographics in the county were changing, the Partnership of Douglas County Governments established the Senior Initiative to explore the implications of the growing population of seniors. Additional information gleaned from the Senior Initiative’s focus groups, as well as the survey, concluded that seniors want to have a more effective and efficient way to obtain information and provide input regarding topics of interest to seniors. Focus group participants also indicated the senior community wanted to be more involved when decisions are being made in the county. Source: Douglas County

Be savvy: map out senior living choices By Andrew Granger When mapping out plans for our lives we always have a Plan A, what we really want to happen and assume will happen. If we’re savvy, we also make a Plan B, a viable alternative that would be just as acceptable. Then there is Plan C, notorious for its last-minute scramble and only reserved for when things get desperate. Apply this to senior living choices. Most people, when considering their future care options, acknowledge Plan A is to stay at home. In reality, however, home is not always the safest or the most convenient option. Loneliness, the inability to drive, needing a bit of assistance with daily life, and the high expense of in-home care are all reasons to start thinking about Plan B. Plan B is your reliable, viable back-up plan when you find living at home is no longer the best option — or your care needs exceed what you, a spouse or your adult children can help with. Plan B is researching and choos-

ing a good senior living community that is to your liking, before it’s too late and you have to rely upon the dubious Plan C. To get started on a Plan B, think about your future and ask some important questions. Do yourself a favor and give the answers a lot of thought. How is my health? What is the likelihood that I will require assistance? Is my house situated so I can get around easily? Is my family nearby and available to help? Can I or do I want to live with my family? As I continue to age, how will my requirements change? What can my finances support? Research and personal visits to different types of communities are a must. Good sources for communities are the internet, phonebooks and local senior publications and organizations. Compile a list and start touring. As you visit, be sure to ask questions that will define the quality of your life in that community. Services,

resident impressions and level of care provided are important factors. Take good notes and take home all the printed information the community can provide. Involve your family and loved ones and their opinions. This decision can be as much emotional as it is pragmatic. Be sure to keep your top choices for the various levels of care you might need and a letter of instruction in a place where your family can find it. This prevents leaving your spouse or your children to deal with choosing emergency options of Plan C because your wishes were not made known. Most people do not regret moving to a senior living community — the quality of life, opportunities and peace of mind that people experience make them wonder why moving was never Plan A in the first place.

Do you suffer from a longevity disconnect?

By Brandpoint

hey say that age is just a number. For the 10,000 who reach retirement age every day, however, that number may come with a multitude of questions about whether they have done enough to prepare for retirement. The good news is that Americans today are living longer than previous generations. But too many of us don’t realize that this boost in lifespan means we need to fund a retirement that could last for 20 or 30 years. This is what’s known as the longevity disconnect. Calculating how much you need to save for retirement is even more difficult if you don’t realize how long retirement can be. What concerns Americans the most? One of the biggest worries Americans have when it comes to retirement is outliving their money, according to a plan participant survey by Prudential Retirement. A substantial 71 percent of survey respondents fear they may not have sufficient income for their retirement years. Only one in five are highly confident they will have enough to last a lifetime. “Today we have more financial information, education and planning tools available to us than ever before,” says Christine Marcks, president of Prudential Retirement. “But despite the steady drumbeat of headlines about retirement planning, we’re still not getting it right.” Why are people having a hard time saving for retirement? Why are they actually saving less when they need to save more?

Blame our brains

The answer to those questions may surprise you. Research shows the reason could lie in how our brains are wired to respond to the environment. Humans are conditioned to focus on survival in the here and now. Yet, our contemporary life demands that we plan for multiple scenarios and contingencies, often with effects that could shape our lives far into the future. Behavioral researchers have found that people actually perceive their future selves as strangers, and many find it difficult to understand the financial needs that “stranger” will have in his or her lifetime. That’s one reason why saving for many years ahead is difficult for us. This and further research from Pru-

Shutterstock images dential shows us there are five inherent behavioral biases that make us our own worst enemies when it comes to saving for retirement.

1 Not being aware of increasing life spans (longevity disconnect) 2 Putting off difficult or time-consuming tasks (procrastination) 3 Thinking that bad things only happen to other people (optimism bias) 4 Making decisions

based on what other people are doing (herd mentality)

5 Putting today’s wants

ahead of tomorrow’s needs (instant gratification)

Smart planning For older Americans approaching retirement, the greatest advice comes from the people who know best: those already in retirement. Many retirees agree that, if they had to do it again, they would take advantage of everything available through

their employers. Other advice includes maximizing contributions to your workplace-based retirement plan or IRA, and taking advantage of IRS-allowed catchup contributions if you’re 50 or older. Retirees also suggest that those approaching retirement assess all the ways they spend money today, and avoid impulse purchases or peer pressure. Careful planning now can help you to achieve your goals of a secure and fulfilling retirement and make it last a lifetime.

Molly Brown House gives glimpse of famous figure The life of Margaret Brown spanned one of the greatest periods of change in American history. From her birth in a Mississippi river town to elegant Newport, Rhode Island, from the Colorado mines to the stages of New York and Paris, she had a starring role as a progressive reformer and a strong voice for human rights. Margaret, who was never known as “Molly” during her lifetime, first achieved fame after her husband J.J. Brown, a selftaught mining engineer, struck gold in Colorado’s mines in the 1890s. After the family moved to Denver in 1894, Margaret’s egalitarian spirit led her to the most pressing issues of her day.

The mission of Historic Denver’s Molly Brown House Museum is to accurately portray the story of Margaret Tobin Brown within the context of her lifetime through ongoing research, artifact collection, preservation and educational programming in order to inspire courage, conviction and pro-active change in her spirit. Come visit: Hours are Tuesday-Saturday, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.; Sunday, noon – 4 p.m. Closed all major holidays. Admission (prices are subject to change): Adults $8; Seniors, 65 and older, $6; Children 6-12, $4. For additional information, call 303832-4092 or visit www.mollybrown.org.

Helping heroes with cars and cash Vehicle Vault hosts fundraiser for veterans’ organization By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Ana Yelen sees the lack of mental health and medical services available to veterans and she wants to do what she can to help them get the care they deserve. “Our service members are really hurting,” she said. “If these things were available, we wouldn’t be needed. Our goal is that eventually we won’t be needed.” Yelen is the co-founder and executive director of the Healing Warriors Program, a nonprofit that provides alternative medical services to veterans to treat conditions such as PTSD and pain management. On Sept. 17, the group held its third annual Hot Rods and Heroes fundraiser at the Vehicle Vault in Parker. The fourhour event featured celebrity speakers and an auction to raise money for the program. “This year was definitely our largest event,” Yelen said. “People really enjoyed themselves, and they were very happy to be here.” The group has a Fort Collins clinic, but Yelen said they hope to expand to Colorado Springs to meet increasing demand. “During Vietnam, these guys were being deployed two times,” Yelen said. “In Iraq and Afghanistan they’re being deployed nine times… They’re in dire need.” Treatments include acupuncture and craniosacral therapy, which uses gentle manipulations of the skull to relieve symptoms. The services are available for free to veterans as well as active-duty service members. Yelen said the program focuses on alternative pain relief methods because of a correlation between reliance on painkillers and high rate of veteran suicides.

Former Major League Baseball player Goose Gossage shares a laugh with the crowd at the Vehicle Vault in Parker on Sept. 17 during a fundraiser for the Healing Warriors program. Photo courtesy of Albert Aguirre “We need to provide more options for care,” she said. “We need to give veterans these options to help restore their quality of life.” The event featured three speakers, Congressman Mike Coffman, sportscaster and “Voice of the Rockies” Wayne

Hagin, and former Major League Baseball pitcher Goose Gossage. Gossage won the crowd over with a story of meeting Mickey Mantle at Gossage’s first All-Star Game and being too awe-struck to even introduce himself. Mantle later took the initiative to make

the introduction. Vehicle Vault was a natural fit for the fundraiser, Yelen said, because of an affinity many veterans have for classic cars. “Our military is the best in the world and these are the best cars in the world,” she said.

Serbian refugees’ faith helps them build community St. John the Baptist is ‘our house,’ ofﬁcially consecrated

STRIFE IN SERBIA From 1991 to 2001, a series of wars occurred among countries that made up the former nation of Yugoslavia in south Eastern Europe. They are often called the Balkans crisis.

By Clarke Reader creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com During the Yugoslav civil wars of the early 1990s, Bosnian Mile Panic saw some of the worst sides of humanity. He, his father, brother and numerous cousins were taken from their homes to a Serbian war camp at gunpoint on June 20, 1992. Panic stayed there until Dec. 23 of that year and, during that time, he said, family and friends were routinely beaten, prisoners were barely given adequate water and food and prisoners came to rely on visits from the Red Cross to survive. “When I was released, I was given three options — stay in the camp, move to Montenegro or go home,” he remembered. “I decided to go home, but I wasn’t there for long before my family and I realized we had to move.” After leaving Bosnia and staying in a refugee camp in Serbia with his family, Panic and his family made it to Colorado in November 1995. Once here, they began to look for a community they could call their own. They found it in their Serbian Orthodox faith, which led Panic to Colorado’s Serbian population. “Our identity is deeply, deeply rooted in our faith,” said Dusan “Dan” Njegomir, a Colorado native and lifelong member of the Serbian Orthodox faith. “In a way, our situation is similar to Judaism in that the term ‘Serbian’ describes both our faith and identity.” Serbians have been immigrating to Colorado since the late 19th century, but they never had a place to entirely call their own. Until now. On Sept. 10, Lakewood’s St. John the Baptist church, 9305 W. Cedar Ave., was officially recognized as the first Serbian Orthodox Church to serve Colorado. Bishop Dr. Maxim of the Western American Diocese and Bishop Longin of the

Serbia, Bosnia, Croatia and Slovenia fought each other over independence and religious and ethnic tensions. Internal strife also took place in each country. These wars include the Croatian War of Independence, the Bosnian War and Kosovo War. Atrocities were committed by many during the conﬂicts. The wars were the ﬁrst European wars since World War II to be considered genocidal. The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia has indicted 161 people for war crimes. The trials continue to this day. An estimated 130,000 people in the former Yugoslav countries died, according to The Humanitarian Law Center.

From left, Boris Jugovic, Mile Panic, Father Radovan Petrovic and Dusan Njegomir, stand in front of their Serbian Orthodox church, St. John the Baptist. The church was ofﬁcially consecrated on Sept. 10. Photo by Clarke Reader Midwestern American Diocese led the consecration ceremony. “We’ve been blessed with the efforts of our parishioners to get here,” said Father Radovan Petrovic, St. John’s priest. “So many of our members lost everything before coming here, but God has given us the opportunity to be worthy of their labors.” The consecration was the result of work that began in earnest in 1999, due to the increasing number of Serbian refugees arriving in Colorado. The new Serbian population started organizing and working with church leaders to get an official parish started. According to research by Njegomir, a member of St. John’s parish, in the early 20th century Serbians attended Russian Orthodox churches in the region and held events at hotels like the Ramada Inn in Greenwood Village. Father Petrovic moved to Denver fulltime in 2007, and from there was able to

direct efforts to find a suitable property to call home. The Lakewood site was a former church that had been unused for some time. The parish closed on the property on June 26, 2009. “Many of our parishioners have experience in construction and similar areas, so they contributed to the renovation work,” Njegomir said. One of those contributors was Boris Jugovic, president of St. John’s board, who has years of experience in the construction and real estate industries. Much like Panic, Jugovic left Serbia in the 1990s and came to Colorado because he had family here. After serving in the country’s military as part of mandatory service, he enrolled in college but spent several years struggling to build a life for himself and his family. “I wanted to come to America so I wouldn’t have to struggle anymore,” he said. “The American dream is only possible here.” After arriving, Jugovic started working in the construction industry, but wanted to start his own businesses. He learned about the real estate industry, and through hands-on experience started his own investment property company. “I lost what were supposed to be the best years of my life, from 18 to 25, because of everything that was happening in the country at the time,” he said. “But I was able to start from nothing in America and use the system to get where I am.” Jugovic’s experience in these industries helped get the church off the ground, and Father Petrovic was able to work with other Serbian churches around the country to get needed materials. A church in Wisconsin, for instance, sold St. John’s the hand-carved iconostas, which is a wall of icons and religious paintings, separating the nave from the sanctuary in a church. St. John’s held its first w service for the 200- to 300-person parish in September 2010. Mass is held at 9:30 a.m. on Sundays in English and Serbian. The Serbian Church is a branch of

Source: International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia Eastern Orthodox Christianity, which split off from Roman Catholicism in the Great Schism of 1054. The church has bishops who are all considered to be of equal authority — there is no equivalent to the Catholic pope. Eastern Orthodoxy is practiced primarily in Eastern Europe and Greece, as well as by Christians in the Middle East and Africa. “We’re a very conservative church and require people to adapt to our ways,” Father Petrovic said. “That’s attractive to some people, because we’ve been doing what we do for 2,000 years.” After finishing the church in 2010, parishioners began plans for a cultural hall and rectory for Father Petrovic and his wife and four children to live in. Construction of the building began in April 2015 and finished a year later. Now that the church is consecrated, the parish is looking to expand its services. It has already been the site of parishioners’ weddings, baptisms and slavas, which are ceremonies honoring a family’s patron saint on that saint’s feast day. In attendance at the consecration ceremony on the Sept. 10 were Serbian Orthodox priests from Arizona, Nebraska and Nevada as well as other Orthodox clergy from throughout the Denver area, and Lakewood Mayor Adam Paul, who was invited by Njegomir. “It was a really informative slice of culture that we have right here in Lakewood,” Paul said. “We’re building an inclusive community here, and the fact that they feel at home here shows we’re a community where all are welcome.” In a time where many people are discussing the immigrant experience and processes, people like Panic and Jugovic are grateful for the opportunities and community they’ve found in Lakewood and St. John’s. “The church is what keeps us together,” Panic said. “St. John’s is our house.”

A reminder of the need for compassion Lutheran art students take on tagging and spread positive message By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Connoisseurs don’t typically look under bridges for high-quality artwork, but that’s the exact place some local students chose to create their masterpiece. A group of Lutheran High School students recently completed a mural under the Willow Park Drive bridge in August, adding color and style to a gray concrete underpass along Sulphur Gulch Trail. Mark Hollenbeck, art teacher at Lutheran High School, helped organize the project with Parker Arts and the Parker Police Department as part of the “Paint Parker” anti-tagging initiative, a program designed to cover graffiti-prone areas with appealing artwork from local students. Over six spread-out days in August, 15 students and adult volunteers created the mural. It depicts hands on either side of the trail forming American Sign Language letters, spelling out the words “love others” amid a background of bright flowers and a mountainous landscape. The design came from Mathew Fasone, one of Hollenbeck’s students who designed and painted a horse-themed mural last year under a bridge near Lincoln Avenue and Jordan Road. Fasone hopes to pursue a career creating fine art, and plans to attend the Rocky Mountain College of Fine Art and Design after high school. “I just really love flowers,” Fasone said. “I really like to draw and paint, and the mural was a great opportunity for me to expand my canvas.” Fasone organized the labor and recruitment for the project, providing food for volunteers and coordinating with police and community officials. He estimated the cost for labor alone would have come to $1,790 if the crew had been paid $8 an hour for the 223 hours they put in. Hollenbeck said the program’s advantages for the town are readily appar-

The mural is part of the Paint Parker program between police and students to discourage grafﬁti. Photo courtesy of Mark Hollenbeck ent, but the students get something less tangible, but equally important, from the project. “For the students who designed the project, it has benefits artistically, to learn to be organized,” Hollenbeck said. “It was part work experience and an experience with community service. I also think everybody who worked on it got a lot of confidence from it.” Dawn Cashman, the Parker police officer who started the program, said the idea was to “take away the canvas” from would-be graffiti artists while beautifying high-traffic areas in town. Since taggers tend to be of middle and high school age, Cashman said it was a natural choice to seek their help.

“We wanted to reach out to them, to give them a sense of ownership in the community,” she said. The approach seems to be working. The project was tagged once during its creation, Hollenbeck said, but Fasone said so far the painting has achieved its goal of preventing more vandalism. He chalks it up to a level of respect taggers have for the artists’ work. “I think they’re respecting the art we put up,” he said. “They’re understanding that it’s our canvas and they don’t want to destroy it. What’s awesome is that they’re respecting (our) art.” Fasone’s original plan was for the hands forming signs to stand alone, without translation, though some passersby

expressed confusion about the painting’s meaning. Hollenbeck assured Fasone that ambiguity is sometimes part of the experience of viewing art. “I told him that it’s OK if people have to look it up, or even wonder what it is a few times before they get it,” Hollenbeck said. Ultimately, Fasone decided to clarify the message to everyone at first glance and added a visible title, “Love Others,” near the bottom of the work. For him, the message is as important as the medium. “I want them to walk by it, or bike by it, and understand what it means,” Fasone said. “We all need a reminder every day about compassion.”

Gymnastics teams face a balancing act

Douglas County starting sophomore pitcher Savanna Reiners made several big pitches to work out of trouble in the Huskies’ 5-4 Continental League win over Legend in a game played Sept. 21 at Douglas County. Reiners worked 6.1 innings, allowing eight hits and three runs but three of her four strikeouts ended Titan threats. Photos by Jim Benton

Huskies hold on for victory Douglas County defeats Titans 5-4 in Continental showdown By Jim Benton jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Douglas County coach Brian Stebbins didn’t feel comfortable with a four-run lead heading into the top of the seventh in the Sept. 21 Continental League home softball game against Legend.

KEEPING SCORE WITH... SLOANE STEWARTSON ck Senior softball and tra and field athlete hool Rock Canyon High Sc

What is your favorite pre-competition meal? My favorite pre-competition meal is a breakfast burrito. My parents used to make them for me when I was younger because I really didn’t like eggs, so they found a way to mask them. It’s become sort of a superstition for me, even for games starting in the afternoon. Who is your favorite professional or collegiate athlete (past or present)? My favorite professional athlete is Michael Jordan because of how persistent and hardworking he is. I strive to have the work ethic that he has and push myself that hard.

It did get nerve-racking, but the Huskies held on for a 5-4 win over Legend in a showdown between teams unbeaten in the Continental League softball standings after three games. “I knew they were not going to go down one, two, three in the seventh,” said Stebbins. “We stayed committed to our plan and we executed at the end. We told the girls it would be a real dogfight.” Huskies continues on Page 35

What is your favorite subject in school? My favorite subject in school is chemistry because it just really clicked for me. Whether it was the teacher that I had or the material that I really understood, I am basing my future on it so it’s something that I really enjoyed. What is your favorite book? My favorite book series is the “Divergent” series. I like reading about dystopian societies and comparing them to how our society is today. I think they are very interesting and it’s cool to see what the authors come up with to make each dystopia different. What are your plans for after high school graduation? After high school, I will be attending Louisiana Tech University to play softball. I will major in biochemical engineering. “Keeping Score With…” is a Q&A with high school athletes in the south metro area. Email Colorado Community Media sports writer Jim Benton at jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com if you or someone you know would like to participate.

Douglas County shortstop Hanna Storey tries to shield herself from the sun while chasing after a short fly into left field during the Huskies’ Sept. 23 Continental League game against Legend.

 Chris Theodore, cross county, junior, Rock Canyon: Theodore won the Division I boys cross country race at the Dave Sanders Invitational on Sept. 23 with a time of 16:22.  Kaylee Rogers, volleyball, senior, Arapahoe: She had 15 kills and a 57.7 percent hitting percentage in a 3-0 win over Overland on Sept 23.  Maggie Swank, softball, sophomore, Englewood: Swank had two standout performances for the Pirates in a win over Jefferson on Sept. 19 and a triumph over Alameda on Sept. 20. She went 5-for9 with eight RBIs in those two games.  Kyle Pearson, golf, senior, Highlands Ranch: Pearson won medalist honors at the Class 5A Central Region tournament with a 4-under-par 68 on Sept. 20 at the City Park Golf Course.  Jake Archuleta, football, senior, Douglas County: The Huskies claimed their first victory of the season on Sept. 9 against Northglenn thanks to the defense. Archuleta had 13 tackles in the 7-3 victory.

Girls high school gymnastics in Colorado faces a difficult routine each season. Challenges include facilities, handling expensive equipment, dealing with club teams and the fact that athletes for most teams come from here and there. This season, there are 34 teams competing in Class 4A and 5A, and Jim Benton several teams OVERTIME go outside the school to practice. Participation figures for Colorado have remained stable with 545 gymnasts in 2015-16, 543 in 2014-15 and 481 in 2013-14. Ponderosa is the lone Douglas County school with an in-house practice facility, which doubles as the wrestling room in the space located above and behind the west bleachers. However, if there is a pep assembly in the gym, the gymnastics equipment has to be taken down and set up again. Thornton has one of the state’s biggest gyms and the gymnastics equipment can remain separated for daily physical education classes. Pomona has a permanent practice area located higher than the gym where meets are held. It takes hard work from athletes and coaches to move and set up the equipment, plus the Panthers lose two days of practice every time a home meet is scheduled because of the relocation. And there are risks moving equipment with an estimated startup cost of $20,000, according to Athletic Business, an online and print publication that covers the sports industry. Facilities, equipment and a shortage of coaches that require safety certification is a reason budget-strapped school districts shy away from adding gymnastics programs. Most teams are co-op, drawing athletes from multiple schools in the district. Finally, it is often hard for teams to convince athletes to compete as a high school gymnast and not on a club team, where they may get more attention from college recruiters. I would have liked to offer an account on this season’s top gymnastics teams and individuals but schedules are hard to find and results of meets can’t be found, so that’s another bad routine that gymnastics coaches face — but one that can easily be fixed. Pitching from the stretch Wheat Ridge’s Brandy Trengove looks as if she might have lost her direction and went to the softball pitching circle instead of the mound on the baseball field. The senior left-hander starts in the stretch or set position, lifts her right leg and appears ready to throw a split-finger fastball or maybe attempt a pickoff move toward first base. Somehow, she drops her arm and delivers an underhand softball pitch. “She’s unique,” Wheat Ridge coach Jamie Heflin said. “She was having trouble pushing off and the pitching coach said let’s try this.

Jaguars win cross country meet Rock Canyon’s Chris Theodore paces the pack at park

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Rock Canyon added another award to its trophy case as its boys team brought home the division one varsity team trophy from the Sept. 23 Dave Sanders Cross Country meet on the course at Clement Park in south Jefferson County. There were 59 schools represented at the meet and the field was divided into division one for larger schools and division two for smaller schools. The meet is held in memory of Dave Sanders, the Columbine teacher and coach who was killed in the 1999 shooting at the school. Rock Canyon’s Chris Theodore led the field of 248 runners in the boys varsity race as he completed the 5-kilometer course in a time of 16 minutes, 22 seconds —13 seconds ahead of Kyle Moran of Cherry Creek, who finished second. Rock Canyon took top honors in the team standing with 48 points, with the first five Jaguars all finishing in the top 20. Theodore was first, Bailey Timmons was fourth, Derek Fearon was 11th, A.J. Bishop was 13th and Luke Dickinson was 19th. Arvada West won the girls division one team title with 101 points. Rock Canyon’s girls finished sixth, and were led to the finish line by Shannon Osoba, who finished 11th with a time of 20:07. Teams from Mountain Vista and Highlands Ranch also competed in the division one races. In the boys varsity race, Mountain Vista finished fifth and Ethan Rouse led his teammates across the finish line in 35th place as he posted a time of 18 minutes. The Highlands Ranch boys finished 10th in the team standings and the Falcons were led by Caleb Meis, who finished 34th with a time of 17:58. Mountain Vista’s girls team finished fourth in the team standings and was led

“She pitched through traffic well,” he said. “They are a great hitting team, but Savanna handled it, and I just told her she only had four strikeouts but all four were in big, big spots. For a sophomore to grow this much and show so much maturity is a big deal. The girls weren’t real happy with their performance on Monday (Sept. 19) even though we won (7-5 over Mountain Vista). They really wanted to win against Legend. Their energy was unbelievable. They were committed.” Montoya felt good about the win and her hitting. “It’s a win we can build off of,” she said. “There are defi-

nitely different types of wins we’ve had all season and this was a quality team win with hitting up and down the lineup. The positions made their plays that we needed. We got the outs when we needed. We were able to hold them off. All the cards played out like we wanted. “It felt really good at the plate. I’ve been kind of going on and off hitting, so the fact I was able to square it up felt really good.”

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF SEPT. 26, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You’ll soon have a chance to take a big step up from where you are to where you want to be. Check it out first. Remember: Even the Mountain Sheep looks before it leaps. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This week brings a challenge that could determine the future direction of your life. If you’re ready for a change, accept it with confidence. A loved one supports your decision. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A disruption creates a delay in completing your projects. Use this time to pursue a personal matter you were too busy to deal with before. You’ll find it will be time well spent. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A disruption creates a delay in completing your projects. Use this time to pursue a personal matter you were too busy to deal with before. You’ll find it will be time well spent. LEO (July 23 to August 22) With things slowing down a bit this week, it would be a good time for luxury-loving Leonines to go somewhere for some well-earned pampering. Things liven up around Friday. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Single Virgos looking for partners are finally getting a break from Venus, who has moved in to make things happen. Attached Virgos see their relationships blossom.

TO SOLVE SUDOKU: Numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) You’ve been working hard to get things done. Now take a breather and recheck your next step. You might want to make some changes in view of the news that comes your way. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) The watchword for savvy Scorpios this week is “preparation.” Consider sharpening your skills to make the most of the new opportunity you’re about to take on. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) There might still be some loose ends that need tucking up if you hope to get that important relationship repaired. A new spurt of activity starts soon.

Answers

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) It’s a good idea to keep the positive momentum going by finding and getting rid of anything that could cause you to stumble. Keep the path ahead clear and open. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) A period of contemplation is advised before you make your next move. Be sure that where you decide to go is the right place for you. A health matter needs attention. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) That new energy surge that hit you last week continues to send out good vibrations. Try investing a part of it in creating something noteworthy on the job. BORN THIS WEEK: You like to balance your personal universe, and in doing so, you help bring harmony into the lives of the rest of us. (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.
