MY NAME IS

NEWS IN A HURRY

MIKE DESIMONE

Cryotherapy clinic owner left dentistry after injury About me I’ve been a resident since 1998. All four of my children have been raised here. My two younger ones were born here. I had my dental practice, right across the street from here (Castle Rock Cryo Care at 751 Maleta Lane) from 2000 until just recently. I live here, work here and play here. I’m a skier, a golfer, we like to hike too. Caring: It’s in my being I became a dentist because I like to help people. It’s actually in my being to be a caregiver. And I had more control than being a physician — there’s more direct contact. I’ve been here in Castle Rock since 1998. I practiced dentistry for 16 of those. And then I got injured and the only way I was getting relief by regular physicians was getting prescriptions. So I looked for another way to get pain relief. I did some research to find an alternative way to treat my injury. I found this (cryotherapy), actually more through online re-

Dr. Michael DeSimone left a dentistry career following a wrist injury and opened Castle Rock Cryo Care at 751 Maleta Lane in Castle Rock. COURTESY PHOTO search, and then it was very difficult to find it anywhere in the state. There was only one other place that did it — it was actually in the closet of a hair salon. So I went there and got tremendous relief and weaned myself off narcotics and anxiety pills. Opening a cryotherapy clinic The treatment that I do here again, as a caregiver, is to help people relieve pain and to recover from sports injuries. It’s been available to elite athletes probably here in the United States for about five or six years, and it’s been used in Europe since the 1990s. They use it actually for

medical treatment. At its core it is a treatment for inflammation. Inflammation is what give us pain, soreness, sickness and it causes us to age. So what this (cryotherapy) does is it’s a cold air treatment that lowers your skin temperature by 30 to 50 degrees, for a short period of time. It’s only three minutes, but it elicits a response from your brain to send out endorphins, encephalin, adrenalin and it fights cortisol, which is a stress hormone. For people who have injuries it allows them to recover. For people who are fit already it allows their workouts to be better. And then for beauty, it makes your skin look good. My advice Keep striving for your dream. I’ve had a lot of barriers that have been thrown up against me. I’ve had cancer, I’ve had heart disease, I’ve had a career-ending injury, but I keep going. Never stop striving. I looked at the barrier or the adversity as an opportunity. I just turned 60. At the ripe old age of 60 I’m starting a new career. I hope to be doing this for 20 years or 30 years. To nominate someone for My Name Is…contact Jessica Gibbs at jgibbs@coloradocommunitymedia.com.

BY MIKE DIFERDINANDO MDIFERDINANDO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Douglas County School District is entering into a partnership that would make school athletic trainers employees of Panorama Orthopedics. The change has been met with mixed feelings by the employees it will impact. Chris Mathewson is the head athletic trainer at Ponderosa High School in Parker. He was worked in the district for 23 years and has served as the representative for trainers in their discussions with the district. “We, as a group, have been doing some really good work,” he said. “We do a good job. We cover a lot of things. Take care of the kids… and they’re blowing up the program. It hard to wrap your head around.” The school board approved the partnership during its Jan. 17 meeting. The new contract, which has not been finalized, is expected to go into effect July 1. Derek Chaney, school district director of athletics, activities and alternative education, said the change should have very little impact on the day-today operations for athletic trainers. Currently, nine athletic trainers are employed by the district, with many of them working as teachers or coaches during the day. The estimated cost to the district for the 2017-18 year is $560,000. Contracting the work out to Panorama — which has offices in Golden, Westminster and Highlands Ranch — would cost $450,000, providing $110,000 in savings for the district. Panorama has agreed to hire all athletic trainers employed now by DCSD at their same salary and allow them to continue at their present school. “I think it will be a good partnership at the end of the day, but change always causes a little angst,” Chaney said. Seven of the district’s nine athletic

trainers are also teachers. Those teachers would work as district employees during the school day and then switch to being Panorama employees after school and during games. This split-employment model has raised questions about how and when trainers will be allowed to provide treatment to student athletes. District rules currently prevent employees from working other jobs during the hours they are working for the district. “We’ve had some pretty significant concerns from the start about what this would do to the safety of their teaching positions,” Mathewson said. “We have been told many, many times that teachers cannot double dip.” Chaney said he is aware of the need and expectation for trainers to be available to work with athletes during the school day. “We want to continue to support our athletic trainers in that because it’s good for our student athletes and good for them,” he said. “We just need to make sure it says that in the contract.” In addition, the change would affect retirement benefits of those already employed by the district, as they would become Panorama employees in their athletic training. “I have 18 years in PERA, and now that I don’t teach, my PERA is gone,” said Mathewson, who spent his first five years in the district working for a private clinic before spending 18 years as a full-time trainer for DCSD. “Panorama is offering a 401(k) and things like that, but 18 years in PERA, you don’t get much. So that hurts.” Mathewson said Panorama would also offer benefits like paying overtime when trainers attend weekend events. Chaney said the contract will not be completed until March and that he intends to work with district trainers as they negotiate.

Community members organize town hall on possible school budget cuts BY MIKE DIFERDINANDO MDIFERDINANDO@COLORADOCOMMUITYMEDIA.COM

Concerns about changes to budgets in the Douglas County School District have prompted the organization of a community forum. The town hall forum organized by parents and community members will be at 5:30 p.m. Feb. 12 at the Southridge Recreation Center, 4800 McArthur Ranch Road, Highlands Ranch. In a letter sent to hundreds of people in the community, the group of parents and community members said “this forum will provide an opportunity for the entire community to directly communicate concerns and questions regarding the most significant cut taken from our schools in the last four years.”

One of the biggest concerns is a district-directed change to how school budgets are calculated that will mean more money for elementary schools and less for high schools. Interim Superintendent Erin Kane said the change was made because district elementary schools are “struggling to make ends meet” and have had a hard time hiring some positions, such as art and music teachers, full time. Opponents of the change said consequences of the new budgeting for high schools and middle schools could include larger class sizes, staff layoffs, schedule changes, programming losses and lost opportunities for students. Kane said there are currently no plans for staff layoffs or cuts to student programing.

‘Something positive has to come out of all of this’ BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Cara Denney and her friends didn’t set out to be activists, but losing friends to a distracted driver drew them into politics nonetheless. In February 2016, Brian and Jacquie Lehner, much-loved members of the motorcycle community in Douglas County and close friends of Parker resident Denney, were riding their motorcycle south on Parker Road when they were struck and killed by a driver who admitted to checking a text immediately before causing the crash. On Jan. 20, Athina Munoz was sentenced to 20 years in prison on two class-3 felony counts of vehicular homicide while driving under the influence of alcohol. But Denney and her friends were shocked to learn that she wouldn’t have faced any prison time if not for the presence of alcohol. Denney and friends in the Douglas County HOGS, a local

chapter of a statewide motorcycle club, formed Coloradans Organized for Responsible Driving, an advocacy group that has grown to about 150 members since its inception in November and expanded beyond motorcycle enthusiasts. “Something good had to come out of all this,” said Susan Dane of Aurora, a friend of the Lehners and co-chair of CORD. “I looked up the fine (for a texting and driving offense) and it was $50. “I said, ‘Is that it?’” They kept a low profile during the Munoz trial, but less than a week after the driver was sentenced in January, CORD members found themselves testifying in support of Senate Bill 17-027 at the state Capitol. They intended to watch the bill being debated on the Senate floor, but some were asked to testify. “They were thrilled to have us, because the bill was going to die,” Denney said. Democrat Lois Court, of Denver, is sponsoring the

bill in the state Senate, while Jovan Melton, D-Aurora, is the House sponsor. The bill would significantly increase penalties for distracted driving. Under HB 09-1094, enacted in 2009, drivers are assessed one point on their license and a $50 fine for a first offense. An additional point and a fine of $75 is given for a second offense. The bill would ramp up the fine to $500 and five points for a first offense and a $750 fine with an additional six points for a second offense. Court said she drafted the bill in response to feedback from constituents and law enforcement in her district. “It’s an extremely dangerous behavior … it isn’t just a nuisance,” Court said. “The bottom line is saving lives.” The bill is currently in the Senate State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee to clarify language about any uses of cellphones that wouldn’t meet the threshold for “dangerous” activity. Court

Cara Denney, chairperson of Coloradans Organized for Responsible Driving, goes over the progress of SB 027 during a CORD meeting on Feb. 1. Denney and friends founded the group partially in response to what they see as inadequate enforcement of distracted driving penalties. TOM SKELLEY was expecting to read the bill, including any amendments added by the committee, on Feb. 8. If it were to pass the committee, she anticipates it will be debated and voted on by the full Senate by the end of the month, at which point it would move to the House. Vivian Stovall, of Denver, who has been watching the bill’s progress at the Capitol,

said some people may think the increase from $50 to $500 is steep, but it doesn’t compare to what could be lost to distracted driving. “When someone says that, I can tell they’ve never been a pedestrian,” said Stovall, who uses a wheelchair and has been hit by a car on four occasions. “Five hundred dollars. Is that the cost of a life?”

Castle Rock showcases early designs for new fire station BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Castle Rock residents have gotten otheir first peek at conceptual designs for a new $7.2 million fire station planned in Crystal Valley. An open house Feb. 1 showcased three designs for Fire Station 152, which will be along Crystal Valley Parkway on town-owned land east of Interstate 25. The station is scheduled to open in 2018, Castle Rock Fire Chief Art Morales said. Attendees were able to vote for their favorite design option at the meeting. All were similar in look but differed in detail, such as the type of exterior covering and type of garage doors. The fire department will present those results to town council at a later date.

“The purpose of the station is to enhance response time,” Morales said. He explained the need is driven by demand. When an area reaches a benchmark of 300 calls a year, it warrants a station of its own, he said. Fire Station 151, which is adjoined with Castle Rock Fire and Rescue’s downtown headquarters, services central and southwestern Castle Rock. Station 152 will help alleviate that by serving southeast Castle Rock. The town will hire 12 firefighters to work the new station — nine will be assigned to the location, working in shifts of three people a day, and the remaining three will serve as relief personnel to cover vacations and sick time. The station itself will have seven beds, three for the assigned firefighters

and the remaining so the station could one day house a medical crew if necessary. About 60 percent of their calls are medical, Morales said. Tamara Gruener of Kings Ridge said she attended the meeting to learn about development near her neighborhood. Gruener and others at the meeting worried sirens would cause disruptive noise for neighbors. Morales said emergency personnel typically don’t turn on sirens until the vehicles are pointed down the street, and only use sirens when necessary. He also said the building’s metal design helps keep construction costs down and boasts more durability. The $7.2 million for construction, and the purchase of an accompanying fire engine at approximately $1 million, is funded through the town’s

Impact Fees. A builder or developer pays impact fees when new construction occurs — following the town’s mantra that development should pay for development. Station 152’s personnel expenses will be funded by the town’s general fund. Financial planning for the station has been five years in the making, Morales told those at the open house, saying the town has set aside money each year. Mike White of Kings Ridge said the station brings the first “major improvements” to that property, and called its designs “practical.” White said he too came to the meeting to learn about the development near his neighborhood. “The safety of a fire house being so close,” he said, “is good news.”

Crime lab approved by Douglas, Arapahoe and Aurora Land acquisition is final step needed to commence the project BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A proposal to build a $15.2 million crime lab for Douglas and Arapahoe counties and the city of Aurora has the official stamp of approval needed to start the project. The city and both counties have signed a final version of the project’s intergovernmental agreement. The

agreement establishes a costsharing plan for the project, but also requirements for the lab’s board of directors, duties of the lab director, annual operating costs, budget development and further details of operation. Douglas County is expected to purchase land in the northern portion of the county for the lab’s construction this month. The project has been approximately two years in the making, with area officials saying the need for a regional lab is paramount. “I think what we were really astonished by is how little

County approves change to board of adjustment BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Douglas County commissioners approved an amendment to the Douglas County Zoning Resolution on Jan. 10 that will cut the board of adjustment from five to three members. Commissioners will also consider an amendment that would permit them to appoint themselves to the board of adjustment. Commissioners held a work session on Jan. 30 to review the issue. Bill Henry of Castle Rock spoke Jan. 10 against allowing commissioners to appoint themselves to the board of adjustment. Henry did not oppose having a three-member board, but said commissioners should not be able to adjudicate their own decisions. “It’s a checks and balances abuse by the county,” he said. District 1 Commissioner David Weaver verified that anyone dissatisfied with a board of adjustment decision can appeal to the district court, but Henry said most families can’t afford to pursue that option. The board of adjustment “hears requests to deviate from zoning regulations, interprets zoning maps, and resolves property and district boundary disputes,” according to the county’s website. It was previously filled by five appointed Douglas County residents, who needed a consensus of four votes to pass a motion. The required vote will now be a unanimous one from the three-member board.

Often, appeals are of decisions made by the director of planning services, currently Terence Quinn, and the administrator’s interpretation of zoning regulations. The authority for the planning director to make day-to-day interpretations of zoning regulations is granted by the board of commissioners, which also sets guidelines for those interpretations. In the past three years, one appeal was successful, Quinn told commissioners Jan. 30. County staff told commissioners there are both pros and cons to having commissioners serve as the board of adjustment. Commissioners are already well-versed on procedures for running meetings, and are best equipped to understand the intent of regulations under review, as they were set by commissioners, staff said. It would also save staff time, because they wouldn’t need to train commissioners as extensively as citizens. However, having commissioners on the board of adjustment could create conflict between commissioners and the planning director, Quinn said. It also requires more time of already busy commissioners, he said, and comes with added pressure from citizens about how to decide an issue. Commissioners chose to move the question along to a county business meeting. It will likely be on the Feb. 14 board of commissioners’ agenda. For more information on the project, visit www.douglas.co.us.

DNA actually gets tested and how long it takes,” Centennial Mayor Cathy Noon said in October. Centennial contracts with the Arapahoe County Sheriff ’s Office for services and will also benefit from the crime lab. State labs, including that of the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, are overrun with case submissions. The backlog means many cases, like homicides or sexual assault, are drawn out. George Brauchler, 18th Judicial District attorney, has also voiced support for the project. Forensic and DNA evidence helps clear or

convict those facing charges, and timely evidence processing speeds a case along, he told Douglas County commissioners Dec. 13. At that meeting, commissioners approved the allocation of $15.2 million to purchase land and build the lab. Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock said it was one of the most critical steps in moving the project along, but a waiting game also ensued as each entity prepared to vet the intergovernmental agreement. Douglas County approved the agreement Dec. 20. In January, Aurora and Arapa-

hoe County officials approved the project. Douglas County Undersheriff Holly Nicholson-Kluth has said that, for a fee, the lab could also process evidence submitted by municipalities. “The public certainly has an expectation that we use science to the best of our ability,” Araphoe County Sheriff David Walcher said in October. “Well, we’re going to start doing that in our jurisdiction.” The contract’s signing means land acquisition is the final step needed before construction can begin.

Tonsing leaves light rail as part of legacy BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Robert “Bob” Tonsing served for a decade on Littleton City Council and was named “Father of Light Rail” by the Regional Transportation District when he retired from its board in 2004. Friends and colleagues will gather Feb. 10 at Fort Logan National Cemetery to bid farewell to Tonsing, who died in Littleton on Jan. 24 at age 86. Born Jan. 8, 1931 in Wichita, Kansas, Tonsing thought of himself as a journalist to the end, and was a working reporter until 1960. That’s when a growing family required a fatter paycheck, and he became director of public relations for Martin Marietta, according to his son, Robert, who said Tonsing was a fourth-generation journalist. Tonsing’s father was editor of the Wichita Eagle and his grandfather, newspaperman John A. Martin, was governor of Kansas. Tonsing wore a number of hats, often simultaneously, after graduating from Wichita State University. While in the Army, he was a staff member of Pacific Stars and Stripes newspaper, based in Okinawa. Following discharge, he went to work as an investigative reporter for the Denver Post and uncovered corruption in the Denver Police Department, as well as Mafia activities in the metro area. He was executive director of the Colorado Republican Party; a Littleton city councilman (1983-1993): chairman of the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG); director of the Metropolitan Denver Water Authority; member,

BUSINESS

Minimum wage hike’s impact a work in progress Effects of new law remain modest for now, may not be felt in full for years BY KYLE HARDING AND TOM SKELLEY STAFF WRITERS

The minimum wage increase that took effect in Colorado at the beginning of the year is having a minimal impact so far on the south metro Denver business community, according to several proprietors and industry experts. While some employers are evaluating how to best account for the added expense of paying workers nearly an additional $1 per hour, the bigger and more common quandary is how they will absorb the cost as the minimum wage rises an additional $2.70 over the next few years. On the retail and fast food fronts, many locations in the south metro area — which has a higher cost of living than much of the state — already pay a market rate above the new minimum wage of $9.30 per hour. In Parker, the Twisters Burgers and Burritos restaurant starts employees at $10.25 or $10.50 per hour. District Manager Gary Hatfield said that in other locations, he can fill positions at minimum wage. “It hasn’t affected the business yet,” Hatfield said, comparing possible effects of the minimum wage hike to market forces like increased food costs. “You’d have to (study the effects) over a long period of time.” The new law is apparently having little impact to date in Englewood as well. “I talked to members of the chamber and I didn’t talk to one business owner who pays minimum wage,” said Randy Penn, Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce executive director. He said a new Chick-fil-A that will open soon in the city is hiring dozens of workers at well above minimum

A dilemma for some One area organization that does pay some of its employees minimum wage is Goodwill Industries of Denver. Prices at the nonprofit group’s stores won’t increase, but Goodwill has delayed expanding employee service programs, such as rent and

utility assistance packages, according to Leslie Peabody, vice president of human resources. “On the flip side, we’re definitely on the side of the power of work,” Peabody said. “We’re happy about the (new law), it’s just taking a bit of change and flexibility about what we can provide.” Carolyn Livingston, communications director for the Colorado Restaurant Association, said restaurateurs may be reluctant to speak publicly about it, but said she has heard from some that they are adjusting their businesses. “Some people have already increased their prices,” she said. Livingston said that other restaurateurs are looking at cutting back on employee hours. CRA opposed the minimum wage increase during the campaign, but the law, Amendment 70, passed with 55 percent of the vote in November. “The thing folks don’t understand with restaurants is they only make 3 to 6 percent profit margin,” Livingston said.

Amendment 70 also raises the minimum pay for tipped employees, like wait staff, maintaining it at $3.02 below the regular minimum wage. Livingston pointed out that this will make the tipped minimum wage higher as a percentage of the regular minimum wage than before. “The tipped minimum wage is going up 70 percent in four years,” she said. “That’s a lot.” Peabody said the “skyrocketing” cost of living in and around Denver led to higher turnover with Goodwill’s staff. She hopes larger paychecks will mitigate that. “We definitely saw that $8.75 an hour was just not going to cut it for our employees in the Denver metro region,” she said. “We weren’t paying a livable wage.” Littleton resident Michael Kessler, who owns Sanyork Fair Trade in Denver, agrees. “We feel that $10 or under an hour is not a living wage, especially in this economy and in Colorado,” said

Hazing of Chaparral High wrestler alleged Rocky Johnson out as coach of the prorgram BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Rocky Johnson is no longer the wrestling coach at Chaparral High School following an alleged hazing incident at a recent practice. A video taken by a parent of a Chaparral wrestler appears to show Johnson encouraging a practice called the “ultimate sit-up.” A freshman wrestler was blindfolded and held down before sitting up and making face-first contact with the naked buttocks of another member of the team. “This is very concerning and the Douglas County School District does not tolerate inappropriate conduct by staff members,” school district spokeswoman Paula Hans said in an email. “Upon learning of this incident, we immediately contacted law enforcement and began our own investigation.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU

The Chaparral High School wrestling coach is no longer employed by the Douglas County School District. The safety and well-being of our students is our priority and actions of this nature will not be tolerated.” Hans said the district could not release whether Johnson, who did not teach in the district, was fired or resigned because it is a personnel matter. She said the Jan. 27 incident was referred to the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office. The matter was investigated by the sheriff ’s office, no criminal charges were filed and the case was closed, according to a spokeswoman with DCSO. Johnson, 45, was in his first season as coach of the Parker school’s wrestling team. The former mixed martial arts competitor could not be reached for comment. Chaparral Athletic Director Rob Johnson, no relation to the coach, deferred comment to the school district. Assistant coach Joey Massey has been named the team’s interim head coach.

Taking long view past stress makes our brief time on earth a richer experience

WINNING WORDS

Michael Norton

o the other day I was reading a news article about finding a “Lost Continent” under the Indian Ocean. The scientists believe the continent was buried under the sea more than 80 million years ago, although rocks that have been found on the island can only be dated back as far as 9 million years ago. However, there are certain crystals on those rocks that can be dated back billions of years. We are talking millions and billions of years old. The discovery of the buried continent may be new news to most of us, but certainly the idea of the earth being formed billions of years ago is not. And whether

This is not meant to shock you or make you sad; instead, it is a simple reminder to think about how long the earth has been spinning and how much longer it will continue to spin, remember, millions and

Movement toward better health is worth protecting

n the waning days of 2016, Congress passed the 21st Century Cures Act with a 392-to-26 vote in the House and a 94-to-5 vote in the Senate. While it wasn’t without controversy, it was a show of bipartisanship rarely seen in recent years. The bill allocates $1.8 billion to fund development of new cancer cures, $1 billion to bolster the fight against the current opioid epidemic, and includes provisions that should ultimately increase the availability of behavioral health services. Over the past decade, my immediate family has waged our own war against cancer, opioid addiction, and mental health crisis, so I’ve personally witnessed their terrible wrath. I commend Congress’ dedication to improving our health care services so these diseases, and many others, are ultimately less destructive to our communities. However, better health care services are only useful to people who have access to health care. Persistent and significant disparities exist across race, income, and geography in access to cancer treatment, prescription drug use, and access to mental health services. Too often, these disparities are exacerbated by a lack of health insurance. At the same time Congress was working to pass 21st Century Cures, congressional leaders were

working behind the scenes to craft a strategy for immediate repeal of the Affordable Care Act. By every analysis, repeal of the ACA without replacement would lead to millions more uninsured, Joe Sammen higher health care costs, and dramatically less access to the very health care services that 21st Century Cures seeks to improve — especially for those who need these services the most. Repeal of the ACA seems imminent, but congressional leaders should insist on a responsible replacement plan to be enacted simultaneously. Any replacement plan must include the following: Protection of coverage gains: Colorado, and the country, have seen historic gains in ensuring meaningful health coverage since the passage of the ACA. Protecting these gains in coverage, as well as the corresponding benefits of improved access for consumers and sustainability for health care providers, is a must.

I thought I was in love with Ruthie Clinton. She didn’t know I existed. On Valentine’s Day, I sneaked a valentine through her locker door. I thought it was her locker door. I was one off. What America needs right now is love, true love. Love and humor. Thomas Edison walks into a bar. The bartender says, “I’ll serve you a drink, but just don’t get any ideas.” Edison was married twice, and he fathered six children. I don’t know how he found the time. There are 1,093 patents in his name. But none of them, not a single one, has anything to do with Valentine’s Day. Doesn’t that tell you something? But here’s something you may not know. He invented something that was a failure for its purpose. It was an electric pen. No one needed an electric pen, but another inventor, Samuel F. O’Reilly, saw a possibility in it. O’Reilly thought he could use Edison’s device to write “I Love My Mama” on a sailor’s arm, instead of using what was available at the time.

What was available at the time was slow and inefficient, and there were frequent misspellings. One sailor woke up the next day with a tattoo that said, “I love my Lama.” This electric pen changed all of that, and now it’s known as a tattoo pen. Every other song is about love. Name it and claim it. “Now, I don’t mean to bother you, but I’m in distress. There’s danger of me losing all of my happiness. “For I love a girl who doesn’t know I exist, and this you can fix. I know between the two of us, her heart we can steal. Help me if you will.” The lyrics from Sam Cooke’s “Cupid.” It always makes me a little sad to hear it. If you know how Cooke’s life ended you know why it makes me sad. Love songs sound great when we’re in love, and love songs can make us wistful when we’re not in love. There is always room for more of them. The same goes for love stories, with the exception of “Love Story.” Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

SAMMEN FROM PAGE 10

Protection for our most vulnerable populations: Replacement plans must acknowledge the vital role that publicly funded programs play for so many people, including children, seniors, people of color, low-income individuals, and people with disabilities. Any plan should ensure a strong health care market through stable funding and federal oversight of comprehensive, affordable coverage. Encouragement for health care transformation: Colorado has capitalized on opportunities to bring efficiencies and improvements to our health care system through collaboration in both private and public delivery systems, particularly by focusing on the integration of behavioral and physical health care. Replacement plans should continue to support transformation at the state and community levels with federal investment.

The ACA has not been perfect, but the impressive and important coverage gains it’s led to are undeniable. Without health insurance, people delay seeking health care until the need is dire, which usually results in higher costs than if the person were able to access care early. They will also be unlikely to be able to afford follow-up care or medications they need to stay healthy, including treatments for cancer, substance use, and mental illness. 21st Century Cures requires an insured populace to fulfill its promise to the American people; if the ACA is repealed without a sufficient replacement that continues to enable access to vital health care services for the most vulnerable, it will have fallen far short of its potential.

suffers from the stress? One million years from now, will anyone look back on history and remember the person who cut us off on the highway? Of course the answer to all of these questions and more is “no.” But yet we stress and stress some more. We stress over our families, our children, our neighbors, our jobs, and over money. We stress over war and injustice, and we stress over hunger and disease. We stress over people we have lost in our lives and so many other situations. We stress so much that our doctors prescribe anti-anxiety medicine with increasing frequency. I saw a bottle of anti-anxiety medication that directed the patient to, “Take one pill per day 30 minutes prior to the stressor occurring.” So this means we know the stress or anxiety is coming, we have built it into our subconscious thinking, and so of course we will stress 30 minutes from now. This is also not a suggestion or recommendation in any way to stop taking any prescribed medications. I am certainly not a doctor and all treatment plans should be carefully discussed with a licensed practitioner.

But to put stress into perspective and to think about how we can most enjoy our ever-so-brief time here on this planet, and to think about how we can reduce our stress a little bit more, try spending time on these words and activities; breathe, pray, meditate, love, forgive, serve others, rest, trust, kindness, and patience. Battles could be quick and wars can be very long. The war on our own personal stress should be taken seriously, as we will be unable to take care of our family, our career, or anything else for that matter, if we are not taking proper care of ourselves mentally, physically, and spiritually. How about you? Is everything a stressor or fire drill and you feel like you are constantly in a battle? Or have you also figured out how to put life into perspective and found a way to reduce your own stress levels? Either way I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail. com and when we can breathe, pray, love, forgive, trust, rest, act with kindness, serve others, and live with patience, we will reduce our stress and it really will be a better than good week.

Christian bookstores offer more than just the written word BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

andering around the maze of more than 75,000 books in a 2,500-square-foot bookstore on South Broadway, the section titles are diverse: Endtime thrillers, books for mom, on the supernatural and Christian living, to name a few. Nonfiction sits near novels of imagination. There are dictionaries, books on prayer and guidebooks that teach how to study the Bible. Then there are the rare collector books — some that can be traced back to 400 years ago. “We have so many cool and interesting books here,” said Dalton Geske, an 18-year-old Denver college student who works part-time at the Englewood store, Christian Used Books. “And you get to see how much they’ve been loved,” he added, pointing out highlighted texts and handwritten notes in some of the nearby books. Christian bookstores are a niche market. They offer readers a different experience than online shopping — and many serve a purpose beyond the business of selling books.

Richard Weigang of Centennial stands with some of the Catholic items at his store of 25 years on South Broadway in Englewood. “This is a bookstore, but it’s also a ministry,” said Eddie Cook, owner of Christian Used Books. “It’s amazing what happens in here.” The ministry of books Denver residents Cook and his wife Bonnie have owned and operated the bookstore for 25 years. Cook is a pastor who started a church in Englewood in 1992, but is now an itinerant evangelist — which means he preaches in various places — so that he can focus more on the bookstore.

The bookstore ministers in a number of ways, Cook said. For example, he donates Bibles and religious books to organizations or individuals in need. Many of those materials will go to missions overseas such as to Ghana, Cambodia, the Philippines and Liberia. Although Cook sees new customers every day, a lot of his regulars come back for the knowledge, he said. “Christians are always working on something,” Cook said. “The folks who come in here are either growing

personally or helping someone else grow.” Christian author and pastor Dave Cheadle agrees about the added value of bookstores. About 10 years ago, Cheadle started the Harvest Christian Community church in Wheat Ridge. Now, he works with the homeless through Giving Heart Englewood. Cheadle has been writing since at least the mid-1970s, he said, and has more than 150 articles and six books published. He is working on the third novel of a Christian fiction trilogy that he describes as an “apocalyptic end-of-the-world type of story.” In the story, Christians are called upon to minister to the suffering world, Cheadle said, and the main character preaches about grace and truth. “That is the theme of my life — it’s a theme I feel strongly about and it comes through in the books,” Cheadle said. “I love getting caught up in the story as I write it.” Richard Weigang of Centennial holds a master’s degree in biblical theology and as a store owner, it’s all about taking an interest in the customer and helping he or she buy what they want and need, he said. Weigang and his wife Lorena have owned and operated The Catholic Store, 3372 S. Broadway in Englewood, for 25 years. SEE BOOKS, P13

BOOKS FROM PAGE 12

“We serve primarily Catholics, but people of all faiths come in,” Weigang said. “Some people want to browse and others have their mind made up on what they want.” The store specializes in Bibles, books and gifts such as prayer cards, rosaries, jewelry, saint statues and crosses. The book selection is mostly nonfiction, Weigang said, but the store carries a wide variety of subjects and authors — including children’s books — and there is a lot of literature in Spanish. “The saint books sell the best,” Wei-

gang said. “I think people can relate to saints. They give us an example on how to live.” Reading rooms open to all Christian Science Reading Rooms also can serve a number of purposes as a bookstore and lending library, said Don Morris, librarian at the First Church of Christ Scientists of Arvada. Reading rooms are open to the public, Morris said, so people who are familiar with Christian Science come for prayer or study. But others come in because they are curious. Everybody is welcome to visit the reading room, Morris said, but it must be noted that all materials available at any Christian Science reading room support the Christian Science move-

ment and must be from the Christian Science Publishing Society. “We don’t offer books from just anybody,” he said, adding reading rooms can be thought of as a “one-stop-shop” for all things on Christian Science. Many of the materials in the reading room are for sale, some can be borrowed and others are for on-site use only. “The reading room is not just about selling products,” Morris said. “It’s about being a place where people can come for a spiritual atmosphere — a good, quiet place to get away.” Independent brick-and-mortar Christian bookstores are at somewhat of a decline, Cook of Christian Used Books said. His best guess is that about 70 percent across the U.S. have closed within the past 15 years as a

result of big-box retailers offering cheaper prices and the ease of online shopping. However, “books will always be the way we learn and communicate,” Cook said. “And there’s still a need for people to be able to walk into a store and buy a book.” And, then, there’s the community aspect. “Sometimes, I wander into a Christian bookstore just to connect with the wall of books that prove I’m not alone in my faith and struggles,” Cheadle said. “Standing in front of a shelf filled with works by often brilliant scholars and writers who’ve explored my very issues and have found hope — just touching the spines of these great works, pulling a few from the shelf — can be enough to lift my spirits.”

Crossing county lines for health awareness Metro counties partner for Hidden Sugar campaign BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Denver resident Andrea Pérez recently took her 5-year-old daughter Yizel to the dentist. The Jan. 14 visit didn’t go very well — Yizel had to get five fillings that Saturday. “I was not happy about that,” Pérez said. “It clicked right away. I thought, I have to do something.” So the following Thursday, Pérez, 25, who is expecting her second child in June, took a pledge to reduce the amount of sugary beverages that her daughter consumes. The pledge is offered through a new metro-wide campaign called Hidden Sugar, which can be accessed online at www.Hidden-Sugar.org. The campaign is meant to target parents and caregivers with children ages 0 to 6. Hidden Sugar is spearheaded by six metro-area health departments that joined forces to form the Healthy Beverage Partnership —Jefferson County Public Health, the Tri-County Health Department (Adams, Douglas and Arapahoe counties), Denver Environmental Health, Denver Public Health, Broomfield Public Health and Environment and Boulder County Public Health. The purpose of Hidden Sugar, said

Allison Wilson, Jefferson County Public Health’s Healthy Beverage Partnership coordinator, is to educate parents on how much sugar hides in certain drinks, and encourage families to reduce the amount of sugar served to children. “Ideally, it would be none,” Wilson said, “but the goal is to reduce.” Sugary drinks are the biggest source of added Wilson sugar in a child’s diet, Wilson said. Not only are they bad for dental health, she said, they can contribute to a number of other health risks. For example, a child who drinks one sugary beverage each day has a 25 percent increased risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, a 55 percent greater risk of becoming overweight or obese and a 150 percent greater chance of developing fat deposits in the liver, which contribute to diabetes and heart disease. “This is one of the easiest ways to attain children’s health long-term,” Wilson said. “Healthy behaviors start when you’re young.” “Colorado is often seen as one of the healthier states in the U.S.,” said Maria Smith with Denver Public Health. “But we know we have to work on childhood obesity because we want our children to have a healthy future.” Along with promoting healthier options and providing suggestions for replacing sugary drinks, the Hidden Sugar campaign compares the sugar

Andrea Pérez of Denver reads information on sugary beverages provided by the Jefferson County health department. Shortly after reading the materials, Pérez took a pledge to reduce the amount of sugary beverages that her 5-year-old daughter consumes. The pledge and information are available metro-wide through a new campaign called Hidden Sugar, which educates the public on how much sugar hides in certain drinks, and has a purpose to encourage families to reduce the amount of these sugary drinks they serve their children. CHRISTY STEADMAN

levels of sugary drinks to those found in sugary foods and desserts. “It really has that wow factor,” Smith said, adding that the hope is adults remember that wow factor each time they make a beverage selection for their children. Working as a partnership has allowed all the health departments to leverage combined resources while providing the community with the same message in one unified voice, said Matt Jackson, the healthy food and beverage policy specialist at Tri-County Health Department. “We know these health issues don’t stop at county lines, so the more effort we can put into working together, the better health outcomes for our region,” he said. And most likely, Jackson said, there will be more times in the future that the

health departments partner to deliver a message to help the impact reach more families metrowide. “We can work more efficiently when we work together,” he said. Little by little, the Pérez family is making progress with cutting back on how much sugar Yizel consumes in the beverages she is served. One challenge the family faces is that Yizel spends a lot of time with her grandparents, Pérez said. So she is working closely with them to help with the effort. But a big part is getting Yizel to adjust to the changes, and educating her to make healthier choices on her own when she asks for something to drink, Pérez said. “I told her, you’ll have cravings every once in a while. But you have to limit yourself,” Pérez said. “Once a week is OK.”

When flying, it pays to be a member MemberJets makes private aviation more available

Ty Carter is a pilot with over 8,000 hours in the sky. He recently saw a gap in the market and created a software that connects individuals with seats on a private aircraft, only costing about as much as a firstclass plane ticket.

BY STEPHANIE MASON SMASON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

After 25 years of flying and 8,000 hours in the sky, pilot Ty Carter saw a gap in the aviation industry: the expense of private flight. Three years ago in Overland Park, Kansas, Carter launched MemberJets, proprietary software that connects single seats on a private aircraft to individuals at a lower cost and with greater efficiency. “Typically, private aviation is extremely expensive and aimed toward the uber-wealthy,” Carter said. “We are reimagining traveling for people.” The MemberJets software links Part 135 aircraft operators — on-demand carriers — to individuals seeking private aviation services. The system uses a kind of liscensing that allows the aircraft operator to sell individual seats, something that a Part 135 operator had not been able to do. As members interact about desired destinations and are able to share the private aircraft, the trip becomes more affordable. According to privatefly.com, using a private jet typically costs between $5,600 and $160,000. A round-trip flight using MemberJets costs the same as a first-class commercial

ticket plus 15 percent, Carter said. In mid-January, MemberJets took Colorado under its wing by teaming with two new operators: International Jet, based at Centennial Airport and Mountain Aviation, headquartered at Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport in Broomfield and operating in Fort Collins, Centennial, Vail, Eagle and Telluride. Carter said a trip will not be booked unless it is profitable for the flight company. Sam Gilliss, vice president and general manager of International Jet, said their planes typically have six to eight seats on them. Almost all the seats need to be filled in order for the trip to be profitable. “On hearing about their program, I think they have a great concept that could serve a segment of a market-

place that has not been served yet,” Gilliss said. “We are excited to help them get this new program off the ground. It becomes a win-win for everybody if everyone can understand and see the benefits of flying in a private jet.” Members pay for their seats on each flight in addition to an annual fee. As of Jan. 25, MemberJets’ annual membership prices dropped from $1,500 to $250. Only members can use the service. Carter said that the lower price will attract more members, increasing success for plane operators and making it easier to fill a member’s desired flight. “The more people who are accessing the system and the more people who are working together, the better the system will be,” Carter said. The flights offered, called shuttle

flights, are typically day trips to a specific destination. After choosing a destination, a member can reach out to family, co-workers and MemberJets members to attract interested parties. MemberJets offers “journeys” to their members. Depending on the operator, a journey, for example, could be a day-long trip to an out-of-state basketball game in which tickets are included in the MemberJets aviation price. Carter said that MemberJets is member-driven, meaning if a member requests a specific trip or location of frequent travel, the company will work to make it possible. Carter said that because members have already undergone a background check, there is no security. Members park next to the aircraft and are in the air within minutes. Minors do not have to purchase a membership, but their seats still need to be purchased. The private flights travel to 5,000 airports that commercial aviation cannot reach, taking them closer to their destination, Carter said. There are no additional fees for parking or checking luggage and members can park feet from their airplane. “At the end of the day, what we are trying to do is open up private aviation to a new demographic,” Carter said. “Between commercial and private today, there is nothing that bridges that financial gap. What we are trying to do is bridge that gap so individuals can have the benefits of private aviation.”

Students get lesson in distracted driving Virtual reality simulator makes impression at Rock Canyon BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITY

A virtual reality simulator showed Rock Canyon High School students how dangerous it is to use a phone while driving. The experience was part of the AT&T It Can Wait campaign, which encourages drivers to keep their eyes on the road and not on their phones. The campaign started with a focus on not texting and driving and has now expanded to include all cell phone uses, including texting, scrolling, posting a selfie or checking an email. AT&T partnered with the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office and Douglas County Schools to host the simulator event at Rock Canyon High School on Feb. 2. “This really taught me to pay attention and not look at my phone or I can seriously hurt someone or myself,” said student Seth Van Mater. “When I went through it, I really didn’t want to hit someone, but then things pop out when you didn’t know you were really distracted.” Van Mater added that after using the simulator, he will most likely urge adults to stop using their phones as

Rock Canyon High School students see the effects of using their cell phones while driving through AT&T’s virtual reality simulator. The experience is part of the AT&T It Can Wait campaign, which urges drivers to keep their eyes on the road, not on their phones, a news release from AT&T says. COURTESY PHOTO much as he will with his friends. Erik Brown, Rock Canyon school resource officer, said that the sheriff ’s office brought the simulator to the school for students to safely experience the dangers of texting and driving rather than just hearing about the

dangers. “Kids are addicted to their cell phones and can’t help but look at their devices,” he said. “Hopefully this simulator can curb that enthusiasm and break the habit.” Since its launch in 2010, the AT&T It

Can Wait campaign has helped grow awareness of the dangers of smartphone distracted driving to nearly 90 percent of audiences surveyed and inspired more than 14 million pledges to not drive distracted, a media release from AT&T says.

Community members reporting more cases of child abuse, neglect STAFF REPORT

The number of calls from community members to the Colorado Child Abuse & Neglect hotline grew last year by 24 percent over 2015, an increase that hotline officials say reflects a growing understanding that everyone has a role in protecting children. Although calls overall remained about the same, the number of calls received from family, friends and neighbors, as opposed to mandatory reporters, accounted for 40 percent of all calls. The rest came from mandatory reporters, who are professionals such as educators who are required by Colorado law to report suspected child abuse and neglect. “The growth in the number of calls from non-mandatory reporters … reflects a welcomed shift in the public’s perception of our shared responsibility to help protect kids,” said Robert Werthwein, director of the Office of Children, Youth and Families for Colorado Department of Human Services. “We are pleased to see that our communities are increasingly aware that we all play a role in preventing child abuse and neglect.”

BREAKDOWN OF CALLS IN 2016 Douglas County Douglas County received 5,911 calls from concerned citizens, down slightly from 6,753 calls in 2015. Mandatory reporters made up 55 percent of all calls. The 37 percent from non-mandatory reporters rose by 25 percent in 2015. Sixty-six percent were child welfare-related calls; 34 percent were nonchild welfare-related. A balanced ratio of calls between the public and mandatory reporters was one of the department’s goals for the hotline when it launched in January 2015. People also can report concerns of child sex trafficking to the hotline this year. House Bill 16-1224 expanded Colorado’s statutory definition of child abuse or neglect to include any case in which a child is subjected to human trafficking for sexual servitude. Victims will now have better access to services for treatment and recovery, and law enforcement will have greater latitude in responding to reports of child abuse or neglect within a family or involving third parties and as part of a criminal investigation.

WAGE FROM PAGE 7

Kessler, whose company imports goods from Latin America. He said that all of his employees already make more than $12 per hour. Sheridan resident Jose Ortiz, 18, said he works for minimum wage at a company in Lakewood, which he declined to identify, and welcomes the wage hike. “Every little bit helps,” he said. What’s next? Kessler was one of the business owners who signed on to the Business for a Fair Minimum Wage campaign in favor of Amendment 70. Strauss, the DU economist, said that modest minimum wage hikes are unlikely to have large effects on food prices in Denver, but said that effects could be felt in parts of the state where the economy is not as strong, such as Pueblo or rural parts of the state. While activists around the country have been calling for a $15-per-hour minimum wage for several years,

Simone Mielnicki of Parker stocks the racks of the Goodwill Thrift Store there. Mielnicki says she has “super bosses” and enjoys working with the customers, and their children, at the store. TOM SKELLEY Amendment 70 was crafted as a compromise, with its supporters saying they recognize that $12 per hour in Denver is different than $12 per hour in Pueblo. Weldy Feazell, the Town of Parker’s

director of business retention and marketing, said only one business owner has approached her concerning the increase, and that person didn’t even know what to make of it. “They said, `as a human being, of

course I want people to make more money, but I’m not sure how it’s going to affect my business,’ and that was it,” Feazell said. In addition to the restaurant association, many chamber of commerce groups, including the South Metro Denver Chamber, opposed the wage hike. “What we heard from our members was the cost of providing that additional wage is going to be cumbersome on small business and possibly detrimental on their ability to have employees,” said Bob Golden, South Metro Denver Chamber president and CEO. But, like Hatfield, Peabody said it will take time to fully understand the effect Amendment 70 will have on the bottom line. She said Goodwill is preparing to adapt. “Every four years, there could be a change in policy just based on the presidential elections,” she said. “You’re always kind of changing based on what can happen in the marketplace or the political arena. We just have to make changes and adapt.” — Staff writers Tom Munds and Stephanie Mason contributed to this report.

Colorado hits health insurance milestone amid big questions GOP plan to undo exchange not likely to reach governor’s desk BY KRISTEN WYATT ASSOCIATED PRESS

320 W. Allen Street, Castle Rock, CO 80108 (303) 660-6334 • www.castlerock.wbu.com BIRD FOOD • FEEDERS • GARDEN ACCENTS • UNIQUE GIFTS

As January ended, Colorado and other states concluded health insurance sign-ups — and great uncertainty over the future of those plans is coloring debate over what states should do while they await word from Washington about how the federal health-care law will change. Colorado’s GOP-led Senate is advancing a plan that would undo Colorado’s state-run insurance exchange, called Connect For Health Colorado. It’s a bill unlikely to make it to the governor’s desk because of Democratic opposition. But the measure is a good indication of how Republicans plan to chip away at Obamacare even before the new Congress decides what to do next. The bill would dismantle Connect For Health Colorado within a year. If the federal health care law remains unchanged, that would force Coloradans shopping for private insurance to use

luck selling his bill as anything but a broadside attack on Obamacare. Democrats and supporters of the health law launched a rally on the Capitol steps Jan. 31 to decry the exchange attack as an effort to undo the health law in Colorado. “That really limits Colorado’s options if a repeal goes through at the federal level,” said Adam Fox of the Colorado Consumer Health Initiative, a Denver-based advocacy group that supports the federal health care law. Meanwhile, the exchange was on pace to set another record for insurance enrollments by the Jan. 31 deadline. The exchange last year sold some 200,000 people medical or dental plans, said Luke Clarke, a spokesman for Connect For Health Colorado.

“Should Colorado continue to have its own exchange? Or has that model either become too expensive, or not effective?”

the federal exchange . “Should Colorado continue to have its own exchange? Or has that model either become too expensive, or not effective?” asked state Sen. Jim Smallwood, R-Parker, who sponsored the repeal. Smallwood is an insurance broker who says his plan has nothing to do with attacking Obamacare, just in saving Colorado the expense of running its own health-insurance marketplace. Colorado is one of only 11 states with an in-state insurance exchange. “They think it’s all one and the same and that if you try to change the exchange, you’re trying to change the law or Obamacare ... and that’s not true,” Smallwood told reporters about his bill. But Smallwood isn’t having much

Senior Hannah Cushman sank three three-point shots and finished with a team-high 11 points in Castle View’s 59-46 loss to Regis Jesuit in a Jan. 31 Continental League game at Regis. JIM BENTON

Sabercats’ top scorers are bunched together

d r

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Castle View has a confusing girls basketball team this season. It is hard for opposing teams to figure out who is the go-to player that needs to be contained. The Sabercats’ four leading scorers for the season are bunched within an average of two points per game, and the spread-out scoring was evident on Jan. 31 in Castle View’s 59-46 loss to Regis Jesuit in the Raiders’ gym. There were only six points separating five players in the loss where Castle View shot poorly and turned the ball over 10 times in the first half. “We’re a well-rounded team,” said senior guard Hannah Cushman. “So if they take away one player, another player can make the shots. “That’s one thing our coach has always liked about our team that we are well-rounded and so they just can’t take away one player. We can all still play and they just can’t try to take away one aspect of our game because somebody else can score, somebody else can do it. The other team doesn’t know who to guard and they don’t know who to take away.”

Key moments Castle View trailed by 19 points early in the third quarter but mounted a comeback and got to within five points at 43-38 on a basket by Cushman with 4:39 remaining in the game. However, the Raiders outscored the Sabercats 16-8 the remainder of the game as they cashed in on 9-of-12 free throw attempts. Key players/statistics Cushman led Castle View with 11 points. Sophomore India Cole had eight, junior Alexis Walker seven, junior McKay Vansickle six and senior Brandi Bain five. Francesca Belibi, the 6-foot-1 Regis sophomore who on Jan. 6 against Grand Junction became the first Colorado girl known to have dunked a ball in a game, had 13 points to lead the Raiders, who shot 49 percent from the floor. Belibi went strong to the basket several times and appeared to want to dunk but three times drew charging fouls.

“They made them and we didn’t. We had threes on the outside. They were open but we missed them. We had shots inside, we missed them. We had free throws, we missed them.” Cushman noted there were friendly rivalries going on during the game. “A lot of our players know a lot of their players from club basketball and all the years before, so we kind of all knew what each other did,” she said. A Regis timeout seemed to halt the Castle View comeback. “We were all getting hyped up and we were all getting into it and then he (Regis coach Carl Mattei) called a timeout and somehow it just didn’t go our way,” explained Cushman. “The first-half turnovers definitely killed us and we didn’t get up as many shots as we wanted. The second half we took care of the ball better, we got more shots and we made more shots and cut their lead down.”

They said it “We took the same shots they took,” said Castle View coach Matt Hema.

Going forward Castle View, 12-7 overall and 4-2 in the league following the loss to Regis, goes to Douglas County for a Feb. 10 game.

4. She made a basket with a minute to play against D’Evelyn that gave the Eagles a four-point advantage. Delaney Smith,junior, swimming, Arapahoe: Smith was one of five Warriors to win individual titles at the Centennial League championships on Feb. 4. She won the 100 backstroke in 57.33 and was first in the 200 freestyle in 1:51.73. Rebekah Sandstrom, junior, basketball,

Littleton: Sandstrom recorded her eighth double-double of the season with 10 points and 11 rebounds in a 51-37 Jeffco 4A loss to Evergreen on Feb. 1. Sandstrom averages 11.7 rebounds a game to lead the league. Ben Reinholtz, hockey, Mountain Vista: The Golden Eagles killed six Monarch power plays, including a 5-on-3 disadvantage and Reinholtz made 25 saves in a 2-0 victory over the Coyotes on Feb.4

STANDOUT PERFORMERS Skylar Backstrom, senior, basketball, Douglas County: Backstrom is the leading scorer in the Continental League and scored 31 points in the Huskies’ 66-56 win over Rock Canyon on Jan. 31. Mary Newland, senior, basketball, Valor Christian: Newland, who scored 25 points in a win over Golden on Feb. 1, tallied 17 points in a 46-44 Jefferson County 4A victory over ninth-ranked D’Evleyn on Feb.

ational Signing Day was Feb. 1, when high school athletes autographed letters of intent with colleges to play at the next level. Some athletes signed in the fall, but most football and soccer players made official commitments Feb. 1. There is another signing date on April 12. OVERTIME Castle View lineman Nathan Laufenberg didn’t sign a letter of intent. Instead, he signed a certificate of intent, since he plans to attend and play football at the Air Force Academy. Jim Benton The certificate of intent is a nonbinding agreement that signifies an athlete’s commitment to follow through with the cadet appointment process and allows them to participate in signing day for publicity purposes. The certificate is signed by athletes who are recruited and plan to attend Air Force, Navy or Army. Laufenberg’s uncles and grandfather were in the Air Force and he is already working out to be in top shape for the grueling six weeks of Basic Cadet Training this summer. That includes training in the rural Jacks Valley center on the academy grounds in Colorado Springs. Full court press for mercy rule The ball is now in the court of the Colorado High School Activities Association’s Legislative Council on whether a mercy rule for boys and girls basketball will be adopted. We’ll find out in April if the legislative council approves the mercy rule that was tweaked and unanimously agreed on by the basketball committee. It was passed to the legislative council for endorsement. The legislative council has 72 members made up of league representatives, Colorado Association of School Executive reps, Colorado Association of School Board reps and representatives of the Colorado Athletic Directors Association. If the proposal is approved for the 2017-18 season, a running clock will start when there is a 35-point or more differential in scores entering the fourth quarter. The clock would be stopped for injuries, timeouts and free throws — a concession to coaches who didn’t want to give up playing time for little-used reserves and younger players.

Ponderosa, Ellis score win over Huskies Mustangs seal 52-39 victory with late flurry of points

Skylar Backstrom of Douglas County takes a shot over Ponderosa’s Carolyn Ho during the Feb. 3 Continental League game at Ponderosa. Backstrom, the league’s leading scorer, was held to eight points in the Mustangs’ 52-39 win.

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Ponderosa and Douglas County played a Continental League basketball game that featured the top two scorers in the league on Feb. 3 in the Mustangs’ gym. Douglas County senior Skylar Backstrom came into the contest with a league-leading 18.6 scoring average. Senior Ashleigh Ellis of Ponderosa was second with a 16.3 point-per-game average. Ponderosa and Ellis came out on top. The Mustangs won the game, 52-39, and snapped the Huskies’ three-game win streak. Ellis scored 24 points compared to eight for Backstrom. “She is actually my future teammate,” Ellis said. “We’re going to school in Wyoming (Laramie Community College). I just wanted to outscore her. We needed to face-guard her. She’s a really good shooter. That was our No. 1 goal to guard No. 11 (Backstrom).” Key moments Ponderosa saw a 12-point lead trimmed to 42-39 with 3:08 to play, but the Mustangs scored 10 straight points to end the game, while the Huskies missed six shots, turned the ball over

once and were scoreless. Key players/statistics Ellis took game scoring honors while senior Hunter Barker added 10 points for the Mustangs. Senior Maddie Gabel pulled down 14 rebounds for Ponderosa, which finished the game with 13 steals. Backstrom, a 5-11 guard, didn’t score in the second half. Sierra Stephan and Taylor Griffin each scored nine points to top the Huskies. They said it Ponderosa coach Pat Ford said Ellis, a 5-foot-7 guard, picked a good

time to rediscover her scoring touch after getting just 53 points in the previous four games. “We’ve had some tough games and she got a few points in them but it was nice to see her break out again,” Ford said. On the other hand, Backstrom had scored 102 points and averaged 25.5 points a game in the four outings before the Ponderosa game. “She was on a roll,” Ford said. “One of our goals was to try to shut her down. We did a good job. We tried to put our best defenders on her. We knew she likes to shoot outside and we tried not to leave her out

there alone. We knew she would cut and we tried to stop cuts. When she puts the ball on the ground, we knew she was driving, so we tried to get in front of her.” Going forward Ponderosa, 3-4 in the Continental League and 10-9 overall following a 43-38 loss to Fort Morgan on Feb. 4, will try to improve its Class 4A standing at Skyview on Feb. 9 before hosting Regis Jesuit Feb. 10 in a league game. Douglas County, 2-4 and 5-14, entertains crosstown rival Castle View on Feb. 10.

Jaguars retain league swim title Rock Canyon tops field of 10 teams BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Rock Canyon took top honors in the 200-yard medley relay, the opening event of the Feb. 4 Continental League Swimming Meet finals, and placed swimmers in the top six of just about every other event as the Jaguars amassed 636 points to win their second straight league swimming title. “I could not be prouder of our girls,” Rock Canyon coach Nicole Vanderpool said after the meet. “Every one of our girls dug deep and worked hard in the preliminaries in order to be back here today for the finals. It was a great team effort to again win the league title.” She said she felt all the very intense competition in every event challenged the Jaguars to push themselves and they did. “They swam their hearts out in every event,” the coach said. “For example, our time in the A finals 400 freestyle relay is our best time of the year.” Rock Canyon freshman Reagan Mathieson said she saw how much her older sister Makenna loved swimming so she decided to try it. “I quickly came to really like the sport because I like the competition and I really like being with my team-

TOM MUNDS mates,” she said. “It is a very challenging sport and requires a lot of determination. The practices and meets take up a lot of my time so I don’t do a lot of other things but I do set aside time for academics.” Mathieson said the sport is physically challenging as team members swim about 6,000 yards a day in practice. “That is demanding, so I eat a lot to keep up my energy,” she said. “Most of the time I eat a lot of meats and carbohydrates like pasta. I eat a lot, but

I burn it off in swimming practice and competition.” Ten teams took part in the league championship meet. The preliminaries were held Feb. 3 to determine the qualifiers for the Feb. 4 finals. In individual events, 18 swimmers qualified for the two or three heats that made up each final event. Swimmers were seeded in the heats based on times in the preliminaries and the swimmers with the fastest times competed in the A finals. The meet got off to an exciting start

with an almost-photo finish in the A finals of the 200-yard medley relay. The cheering shook the pool walls as the Rock Canyon team of Makenna Mathieson, Kennedy Philbrick, Jessia Beckwith and Madison Coonts won the event with a time of 1:47.82 just ahead of the Heritage team that posted a time of 1:47.90. Rock Canyon topped the final team standings, Heritage was second, Regis was third and the co-op Douglas County-Castle View team finished fourth with 317 points. Huskies swimmer Elsa Litteken finished first in the 50-yard freestyle and in the 100-yard backstroke while divers Lexie Baker and Samantha Tamborski finished one-two in diving. “I did gymnastics, a friend urged me to try diving, I did and I love it,” Tamborski said after she received her award. “Gymnastics gives you an edge when you dive because you already know how to do flips and twists. It really helps when you are learning the more complex dives.” Mountain Vista finished fifth with 302 points. The top placers for the Golden Eagles included junior Natalie Arky, who won the 200-yard individual medley, and teammate Holly Dennis, who won the 100-yard. In the remainder of the team standings ThunderRidge finished sixth, Highlands Ranch finished seventh, Chaparral finished eighth, Legend finished ninth and Ponderosa was 10th.
