Public hearing to address school security Douglas County session is tentatively set for late April in Parker BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In response to gun violence tragedies in Colorado and across the nation, a subcommittee has been formed to address security in the Douglas County School District. “The idea is to really bring the community together to have a conversation about how things are going in Douglas County, what we could do better and how we can get there,” said Kory Nelson, a member of the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office’s Public Safety Advisory Committee, formed of residents who advise the sheriff about operations, budget and community safety programs. At its monthly meeting on March 14, the PSAC unanimously approved a motion to create a subcommittee on public school security. A draft of the motion lists 14 mass shootings and threats that have left an “indelible mark” on the community. They include the 1999 school attack at Columbine in which two students killed 13 people; the 2006 shooting at New Life Church in Colorado Springs that

killed four; the 2012 mass shooting at an Aurora movie theater that left 12 dead; and the 2016 Columbine-inspired threat at Mountain Vista High School. Made up of 25-30 people from across the county — including parents, young adults and businesspeople — the subcommittee will host a public hearing, tentatively scheduled for April 28, at Legend High School, 22219 Hilltop Road, Parker. Citizens, parents, students, schools administrators and staff are invited to the public hearing, which will focus on the “history, current status, existing challenges, future plans and desired additional tools for public school security in Douglas County,” the motion says. The event is expected to be livestreamed. “I think a lot of people in the community just don’t know the current status of school security in Douglas County,” said Nelson, of Parker. “I think our community can bridge that gap of information.” The subcommittee intends to invite several “relevant experts and civic leaders” to speak, including Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock, DCSD security director Rich Payne, DCSD director of mental health intervention Stephanie Crawford-Goetz, District Attorney George Brauchler, the school board, school district committees and police chiefs from around the county.

WHAT THE DISTRICT IS DOING Douglas County School District has several protocols in place to ensure school safety and security. The sheriff ’s office provides a school resource officer (SRO) for every high school and school marshal officers (SMOs), who make multiple unannounced security visits to elementary and middle schools daily, according to the district’s website. Campus security specialists are stationed at middle and high schools. The DCSD Safety and Security team partners with schools to conduct safety drills, install security cameras and monitoring systems, and review current safety procedures and update them as needed, the district’s website says. Anyone can report a concern or potential threat through the Text-a-Tip app, which is an anonymous tip line offered by the Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office. Community members can also share concerns with Safe2Tell, a state anonymous tip line, at 877-542-7233. been formally invited as of March 20, said she looks forward to the community discussions on school safety. She will be part of a safety and security panel tentatively scheduled for 6:30 p.m. April 10 at Rocky Heights Middle School, 11033 Monarch Blvd., in Lone Tree. “I’m incredibly grateful that so many of our citizens are focused on the safety of our kids,” Kane said in an email correspondence. “I am

looking forward to continuing these discussions with our community and our law enforcement partners at our safety and security forum on April 10, as well as the event on the 28.” The subcommittee will report its findings and recommendations for legislation or administrative actions to the Public Safety Advisory Committee, according to the motion. Currently, the subcommittee is looking at the possibility of placing a county sales tax measure on the November ballot for additional public school security funding. The Douglas County Justice Center Sales Tax has a .13 percent portion that is due to sunset at the end of 2020. Nelson would like to see that terminate one year early so a new sales tax could provide additional funding for school security. “Why more isn’t being done is always a problem of money,” said Nelson. “It’s a really important issue, so let’s bring the people to the table to talk about this and see if Douglas County is committed to making a clear, straight, reliable source of funding for school security.” The issue of school safety hits close to home for Nelson, who has a daughter at Legend High School in Parker. “My number one job in life is to keep my daughter safe,” he said. “We can and should come together as a community and have these conversations.”

School district continues tax-measure conversation Staff presents recommendations at board meeting

“Not addressing Tier 1 needs significantly increases risk of building components failing. Some components, like boilers and chillers, fire alarm systems and elevators, may either close a school or impact a portion of the school or program if they fail.”

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Feedback from school leaders shows teacher and staff salaries must increase for the Douglas County School District to remain competitive with neighboring school districts, interim Superintendent Erin Kane said. “Based on the input that we have received from our school leaders, and what they have been hearing from their staff, staff compensation is the number one thing that is on everyone’s mind,” said Kane. “Our inability to compete with our other districts — and losing teachers as a result.” To address the issue, Kane outlined the district’s recommendations for a mill levy override and bond measure at a March 20 school board meeting. The tax measures are being looked at for the November ballot. A bond would address the district’s capital needs, such as building repairs and new construction. According to its master capital plan, the district needs between $205 million and $269 million in repairs. A mill levy override, often referred to as an MLO, would address teacher pay, compensa-

tion and school programming. The district’s fiscal oversight committee researched three scenarios: a $250 million bond with no tax impact; a $250 million bond and a $20 million MLO, which would result in a $103 per year tax impact for the average homeowner; or a $250 million bond and a $30 million MLO, which would result in a $156 per year tax impact, according to Kane’s presentation.

The district is contracting with a company that will begin polling constituents on any possible tax measures in April, according to school board President David Ray. “The polling company comes back to us with an analysis,” said Ray. “That gives us information to decide what questions, if any, we would want to put on the ballot.” Teacher pay and compensation would account for $15.7 million of the $20 million MLO. Charter teacher and staff compensation would total $4.3 million. A survey on charter schools’ needs is open until March 30. “That 15.7 million we would recommend using for the internal pay gaps,” Kane said. “It will provide a pay bump for everyone, throughout the school district.” A $30 million MLO would cover teacher compensation and charter schools’ needs, plus mental health and security for neighborhood schools, career and technical education. Mental health and security needs, such as getting a full- or part-time counselor in every elementary school and an extra counselor with a focus on mental health in high schools, would account for $7 million. Technical education would use $800,000 of the $30 million MLO. Kane pointed out that there is a wait list for the district’s technical education programs and many students are sent out of district for vocational programs. “This is something that is very important to our community,” said Kane. “We hear that over and over again.” The last time Douglas County passed a local bond or mill levy override was in 2006. Neighboring districts, including Littleton Public Schools, Jefferson County Public Schools and the Cherry Creek School District, have each seen tax measures pass since then. The increase in funding allows those districts to pay teachers more than in

Douglas County, where the average teacher pay was $52,044 during the 2016-17 school year. Jeffco’s average teacher pay was $55,435, according to the Colorado Department of Education. Cherry Creek’s was $69,110, and Littleton’s was $64,917. In Douglas County, the community voted down a $200 million bond in 2011, and a $395 million bond and a $17 million mill levy in 2008. In her presentation, Kane also addressed 30 questions board members raised at a March 2 board meeting. Topics included the inclusion of charter schools in a bond, student growth, a campaign committee, building trust and ramifications if nothing is done. Some board members raised concerns about how much money would go to charter schools, which typically don’t receive money from a bond measure. “How much schools can have in fund balance doesn’t translate to charter schools,” said board member Anne-Marie Lemieux. “If there is a charter that has a very high fund balance, would we not include them in the bond?” If charter schools are included in the bond measure, staff recommends implementing a reimbursement model for capital funds used, according to Kane’s presentation. The survey on charter schools’ needs will provide more information on what exactly charter schools would use MLO and bond measure funds for. Kane highlighted the importance of addressing Tier 1 needs, which include code compliance issues and “assets, systems and components that are necessary to occupy a facility and/ or may cause large financial costs if a breakdown occurs,” the district’s master capital plan says. Tier 1 needs over the next five years are estimated to cost between $91.4 million and $120.5 million. “Not addressing Tier 1 needs significantly increases risk of building components failing,” Kane’s presentation stated, referring to the highest priority capital needs. “Some components, like mechanical boilers and chillers, fire alarm systems and elevators, may either close a school or impact a portion of the school or program if they fail.” Ray commended district staff and Kane for the thorough presentation. “I just want to say, thank you for this presentation, and for working so diligently on our questions,” said Ray. “We appreciate that.” Staff will address any outstanding questions from the board and the tax-measure conversation will be continued at an April 17 board meeting starting at 6 p.m. at the district’s administrative building in Castle Rock, 620 Wilcox St. The school board has until July 30 to notify the county clerk whether it will put a tax measure on the November ballot. Ray expects the board to make a decision by June.

Thousands turn out to March for Our Lives

Rally held to protest gun violence, promote changes in the law BY TABATHA STEWART TSTEWART@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Stacie Lenar, 37, of Highlands Ranch, said she has never taken an interest in politics, but rather “left that up to other people.” In the wake of recent school shootings, Lenar, the mother of two small children who are entering the public school system, said she can’t be complacent any longer. Lenar joined thousands of people March 24 at Denver’s Civic Center Park for the March for Our Lives to protest gun violence and spent time wandering the crowd signing people up to vote. “I never really got involved, but gun violence really hit home for me after a friend of mine in Florida was murdered by her ex-husband,” Lenar said. Lenar joined the Highlands Ranch group Moms Demand Action, and has vowed to fight for better gun laws and safer school policies for her children. “I fell like there are a lot of things we can do that don’t tread on the Second Amendment,” she said. “It’s horrifying to send my kids to school. We love the public schools and want to support them, but I have to care more about innocent kids over that violent guy’s right to own a gun.” There are no clear estimates as to how many people showed up to the rally, but streets were filled to capacity for several hours as protesters poured into Civic Center Park, before marching around town holding signs and chanting “Vote them out, vote them

with small children, while enterprising Girl Scouts sold cookies. The unified purpose of the march was to let lawmakers know the people of Denver have had “enough,” attendees said, but some people came with a specific purpose in mind. Senior citizens and infants were among those in the crowd, joined by others in wheelchairs, in strollers and some on roller skates. Students of all ages carried signs calling for their safety, and imploring adults in government to hear their pleas. Students Catherine Stevens, 9, and her brother Drew, 7, carried a handmade sign that said “Guns don’t kill… umm, wait, they do.” Catherine said she put a lot of effort into the sign for the march.

Meanwhile, Tom Seagroves said he thinks there can definitely be some middle ground that makes the Unites States safer, without treading on gun owners’ rights. “I’m a hunter, and I hunted with my father, so I don’t like the idea of raising the general age (of gun ownership) to 21,” said Seagroves. “But we have no reason for assault rifles.

Douglas County renews contracts for air support in wildfire management BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A recent Douglas County commissioners’ meeting had a particular focus: setting the county up for emergency management in the coming year. On March 20, there was an agenda item for contracting with Castle Rockbased Rampart Helicopter Services and another for additional “call as needed” air support services, both aimed at providing the county assistance in fighting whatever wildfires may come in 2018. A third agenda item approved the county’s annual operating plan for emergency management and a fourth approved a first-ever intergovernmental agreement with El Paso County through which both counties officially agree to provide one another with disaster mutual aid. All items got the green light from Commissioners Roger Partridge and Lora Thomas in a 2-0 vote. Commissioner David Weaver was absent from the meeting. Both commissioners said March 20 they believed constituents support putting county money toward such services. “I don’t think I’ve had any residents complain about these contracts,” Partridge said. “They know the value of them.” In the week leading up to Douglas County’s approval of the contracts, it and the towns of Parker and Castle

Rock installed stage 1 fire restrictions in response to dry conditions. “I know how many citizens I’ve had talk to me about how dry it is,” Thomas said. “They’re worried about fires.” The county has relied on its relationship with Rampart Helicopter Services since 2010. Mike Alexander, emergency management coordinator with Douglas County, said Rampart responded to every major fire in the county last year. Douglas County has both a “call when needed” and an “exclusive use” agreement with Rampart, meaning the county can request Rampart exclusively work with Douglas County in 30-day increments for a cumulative total of 90 days. Alexander also explained entering “call as needed” contracts mean the county won’t pay for the services unless they use them. Costs associated with these contracts are as follows: • Call When Needed services with Rampart cost $2,150 per hour. • Charges for Exclusive Use with Rampart cost $3,500 daily with an additional hourly cost of $2,150 and mileage for ground support vehicles. • Annual costs for Rampart services cannot exceed $404,000. • Contracts approved spending up to a total of $200,000 for air support services with 10 Tanker Air Carrier LLC, a company based in New Mexico; the Broomfield-based HeliQwest International Inc.; and the Loveland-based Trans Aero LTD.

ble, we deserve what we get,” she said. Also in the room was Highlands Ranch resident and delegate Doug Potter, and although he wore a sticker for his friend of six years, Laydon, Potter said both he and Holbert were excellent candidates. He, too, said he participated in the caucuses and the assembly to be an involved citizen. “I think this is a really important part of our electoral process,” Potter said, referencing the famous Benjamin Franklin quote, “A republic, if you can keep it.” Toward the day’s end, Blackburn said the assembly proved to her Republicans’ odds are good in the coming election cycle, and that momentum had picked up following the caucuses. “What we found so far was, there’s a bit of complacency, which is normal after a big win — the presidency,” Blackburn said. “Turnout today was amazing.”

CALM AFTER THE STORM

When Tanne Blackburn, chairman of the Douglas County Republicans, opened the 2018 Republican General Assembly, she started with a message for anyone who felt discouraged by low turnouts at some Douglas County caucuses. That message, she said, was to stay energized. “We want this state red,” Blackburn told the crowd filling Parker’s Legend High School gymnasium March 24. The theme repeated itself throughout the day as candidates for county, state and congressional offices took to the podium, all ready to explain why they deserved Douglas County’s votes and why they wanted Republicans to fill office. Early in the day, the assembly tackled uncontested races — Tony Spurlock for the county sheriff, Lisa Frizell for county assessor and Jill Romann for coroner. Then delegates heard from those vying for offices with more than one candidate. To summarize the day’s results, all candidates still in the running as of the assembly are advancing on to the primary ballot in June. Those hoping to become the next Douglas County District 1 commissioner are Douglas County Treasurer Diane Holbert and political newcomer Abe Laydon. Linda Fielding, a resident of The Pinery, came out to put her support behind Holbert, but the very act of being there and involved was important, she said. “I think people need to be responsible for their own government.

“March for Our Lives” in support of a worldwide, student-led protest for Congress to take action on gun violence following the Feb. 14 school shooting in Parkland, Florida, that left 17 dead. A Denver march took place the same day. State Rep. Joe Salazar, D-Thornton, who is running for attorney general, started his speech by commending the movement. “I’m proud to be here on a day when our younger generation is fighting against gun violence,” Salazar said. Reasons for getting involved in the county assembly varied. Delegate Chris Krimbell, of Highlands Ranch,

March 29, 2018M voiced her support for gubernatorial candidate Cary Kennedy, the former state treasurer. Krimbell supports Kennedy’s views on women’s rights, education and healthcare, she said. “It’s exciting,” Krimbell said of the county assembly. “For me right now, it’s very confusing, but the people who are actively involved seem to understand.” Brett Siebert, 16, was volunteering at the event to get a feel for the process, which he called confusing and questioned the accuracy of. He said he plans on volunteering at a Republican county assembly to see both sides. The current political climate has Siebert thinking ahead. “I feel like I have to be involved,” the junior at Castle View High School said. “Because right now, the country really needs some educated politicians.”

Roughly 250 Democrats gathered at Chaparral High School in Parker on March 24 for the Douglas County assembly, where delegates for the state assembly in April, as well as candidates for local and statewide races, were selected. ALEX DEWIND

Rabies found in Douglas County alpaca STAFF REPORT

After the recent death of an alpaca in Douglas County was confirmed by the Colorado Department of Agriculture and Tri-County Health Department, officials are urging animal owners to ensure all rabies vaccinations are up to date. According to Keith Roehr, state veterinarian with the Colorado Department of Agriculture, their office was contacted about an alpaca with suspected rabies March 2. Within a few days, the animal was showing neurological signs of the disease and the alpaca died shortly after. “That area of Douglas County, where Elbert, Douglas and El Paso county border each other, is not uncommon for rabid skunks,” said Roehr. “There was no known history of the alpaca being in contact with a skunk.” Since the beginning of the year, 32 animals from Colorado have tested positive for rabies, according to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. Of those, 12 rabid animals were suspected of exposing 33 pets, seven livestock animals and two people. The diseased animals have mostly been skunks, but any animal is at risk of contracting the disease. Pet owners should make sure their pet’s vaccinations are up to date, and owners of livestock or large animals should talk to their veterinarians about the risk of rabies exposure. According to a statement issued by Douglas County, “There has been evidence of rabid skunks in the Denver metropolitan area since January. Rabies is a deadly disease, and vaccination is the single best method to protect your pets and livestock. People can get rabies if an animal in their home or on their property gets sick from being bitten by a rabid animal,” said John Douglas, executive director of Tri-County Health. Rabies is a viral disease in animals that infects the brain, and is usually spread by saliva through the bite of an infected animal. There are two symptoms of rabies. Some animals with rabies will act aggressively, toward hu-

HOW TO AVOID EXPOSURE Douglas County issued these tips to avoid exposure to rabies: • Be aware of skunks out during the day. This is abnormal behavior and these animals should be avoided. • Be aware of areas that can be suitable habitat for skunks, such as dark holes, under buildings and under equipment. • Do not feed wild animals or allow your pets around them. Be sure to teach children to stay away from wild animals. Avoid leaving pet food outside as that may attract a wild animal. • Contact your veterinarian right away, if any of your animals are bitten or scratched by any wild animal, particularly skunks, bats, foxes or raccoons. • If your animals exhibit any dramatic behavioral changes, contact your veterinarian as soon as possible. Isolate and avoid contact with these animals if possible. • If you have been bitten or scratched by a wild animal, contact your physician and local health department right away. • A rabies vaccination should be considered for horses and other equines, breeding livestock, dairy cattle or other livestock. • If you must remove a dead skunk on your property, wear rubber gloves or lift the carcass with a shovel or other tool, and double-bag it for the trash. Do not directly touch the skunk with bare hands. mans and other animals, while others will act lethargic, exhibit weakness in their limbs and an inability to raise their head due to paralyzed muscles. Rabies is fatal for animals, but people who have been exposed to the disease can be treated to prevent illness. Officials said never to approach an animal suspected of having rabies, and watch for changes in behavior of pets if they may have been exposed to a rabid animal. Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet has been scratched or bitten by a rabid animal, and if a human has been bitten or scratched by any wild animal contact your physician and local health department as soon as possible. If you have questions about rabies, call Tri-County Health at 303-220-9200, or for more information visit www. tchd.org/396/Animal-Bites-Rabies

Specialized yoga for trauma victims coming to Castle Rock LiveFree Counseling to begin offering program this month BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Denise Kullman tries to help people suffering from any number of traumas through her work as a neurofeedback technician, but in March, she’s taking a new approach. Kullman, who works at LiveFree Counseling in Castle Rock, will be enrolling in a new program LiveFree is offering that aims to help people heal from trauma through yoga. “I don’t think a lot of people realize that, one, what they’ve experienced is trauma, and two, that they can get help,” said Tammy Gustafson, owner of LiveFree Counseling. LiveFree Counseling, 695 Jerry St., provides various counseling and therapy services all specializing in helping people work through life experiences that result in trauma — from divorce to medical conditions to abuse. “We specialize in trauma and our vision is to provide

a lot of different ways that people can get help and healing,” Gustafson said. “Now we’re starting traumainformed yoga, so we’re just really excited.” Trauma-informed yoga is a type of yoga that teaches instructors how to avoid potential triggers for individuals with trauma. For example, the language an instructor uses is more invitational than commanding. Instructors wouldn’t tell students when to begin a certain move. Instead they would say things such as “if you like” or “when you are ready.” In another example, they refer to exercises as “postures.” The more traditional term, “pose,” can be triggering for victims of sexual abuse, said Courtneyrose Chung, who is the trauma-informed yoga instructor at LiveFree. Gustafson said she’s always envisioned incorporating such a yoga program into her practice because of research showing it’s effective in helping trauma victims. The Trauma Center in Massachusetts, known for pioneering the trauma-sensitive and trauma-informed yoga field, conducted research finding trauma-informed yoga

helped reduce symptoms in women with post-traumatic stress disorder. In one study run from 2008 through 2011, 64 women with chronic PTSD who were not responding to treatment were placed in one of two groups. About half underwent a trauma-informed yoga course while the other half were placed in a control group that received health education classes. At the conclusion of the study, 52 percent of the yoga group no longer met criteria for PTSD, compared to 21 percent of the control group. “That’s powerful stuff,” Gustafson said of the report, explaining other research shows trauma creates a physical reaction in people and is often stored in the body. A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Kaiser Permanente study from the late 1990s detailed connections between a person’s number of childhood traumas, such as abuse or neglect, and health conditions that emerge later in life. That’s why Gustafson believes it’s as important to treat trauma through physical therapy like yoga as it is through mental and emotional therapy.

Courtneyrose Chung and Tammy Gustafson are helping to roll out a new trauma-informed yoga class in Castle Rock for clients at LiveFree Counseling. JESSICA GIBBS Chung has been a registered yoga teacher since 2012 and graduated with her master’s degree in marriage and family therapy last May. She now works as a clinical therapist with LiveFree and trained through a 20-hour course with the Trauma Center in order to lead LiveFree’s traumainformed yoga program. The new trauma-informed yoga program begins March 31. The eight-week, womenonly course offers classes on Saturday mornings and Tuesday evenings. The classes, Chung said, will be in a room at the center with plenty of space, clearly marked exits and no mirrors, all in order to make their clients feel safer.

More information is available at livefreecounseling.org. “This is not a fitness class. There will be some amount of exertion as the classes get slightly more difficult,” Chung said, “but it’s very slow. It’s very controlled.” Kullman hopes the classes will help her personally and professionally. “I want to make sure that I’m educated in all the services that our office can provide,” she said, adding she’s a mother of four and helps support her aging mother. “I have my own personal stressors and stuff going on that I thought, you know, this will help me too as an individual to overcome that.”

“We’re done with being silent.” “This movement will make a difference,” Erik says. “This time, it’s all different types of people coming together on both sides of the aisle, and people are sick and tired of seeing this happen.” A recent poll by the Associated Press and the NORC Center for Public Affairs Research shows he may be right. Results found nearly 7 in 10 adults now favor stricter gun control measures, the strongest level of support since the Associated Press first asked the question in 2015. Overall, 90 percent of Democrats, 54 percent of gun owners and 50 percent of Republicans support tightening such laws. School shootings remain a very small fraction of the gun violence that leaves a child dead or injured, on average, every hour in this country, according to a Washington Post analysis. But the analysis found nearly 200 people have died in school shootings since 1999 — the year 12 students and a teacher died in the Columbine High School tragedy — and more than 187,000 students in primary and secondary schools have experienced a shooting on campus during school hours.

inspired by the student movement, had to be there. Peace is a central mission of Montessori teachings. Children are our hope for the future, she says, “our only hope for peace.” ‘This movement will make a difference’ The air in the park seems charged. Electric. Music pulses through speakers. Chants swell. But it’s confidence, buoyed by the youthful belief of invincibility, which makes itself heard loud and clear. “Students aren’t going to stop until something actually changes, however long that actually takes,” says Madeline Bond, 15, a sophomore from Dakota Ridge High School in Jefferson County. “I want to let our senators in Congress know we want change,” says Kathryn Chandler, 17, who drove six hours from Garden City, Kansas, with her mom, because the Denver rally was the closest.

‘You can’t underestimate any day’ Fear that someday it will be their turn is real, students say. Many students know what they want. They say they don’t want to abolish the Second Amendment, the right to bear arms. But they want stricter regulations on background and mental health checks and the gun-permitting process. They want a ban on assault weapons. Katie Lurie, 14, a freshman at Littleton High School, calls them commonsense gun laws. They “should be easy to comprehend,” she says. “It’s what students need to feel safe in their schools.” Noah Hollingshead, 18, will graduate from Castle View High School in Douglas County in May. He hunts. He knows guns and rifles, understands how to use them safely. He came Saturday with his family — his parents, grandfather and eighth-grade sister, his aunt and uncle and cousins. He holds up a sign he wrote — “Protect us! Ban assault weapons.” It was important for him to be here, he says. “My sister is in school for four more years and I will have kids one day, and I hope they can go to a school where they

can feel safe and that it will do what it’s intended to do — and that’s learn without worrying about shootings.” There’s not a day that he walks into school and doesn’t think something could happen. “You can’t underestimate any day,” he says. “If you are caught not ready for the event, then you’re kidding yourself.” He loves to hunt. It’s been part of his family tradition. His grandfather, in his 60s, has hunted since he was 15. They respect guns and the reasons they use them. But “we agreed we’d destroy every gun we ever had if it meant no person would ever be hurt or killed from an assault rifle ever again,” Noah says. “If a solution meant we would have to sacrifice that, then that’s a sacrifice we’d be willing to make.” Listen to our children. “At the end of the day,” Noah says, “you just want kids to stop dying.” Ann Macari Healey writes about people, places and issues of everyday life.

Highlands Ranch mother suspected of killing newborn baby appears in court “Her reply was, after pausing for a second, she said, ‘Well, the thing is, I don’t want to get into trouble.’”

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Camille Wasinger-Konrad sat on her back deck for 10 minutes before tossing her newborn baby over a 9-foot-tall fence into her neighbor’s backyard, Douglas County detective Adam Moorman said at a March 20 preliminary court hearing. Wasinger-Konrad, 23, was arrested Jan. 2 after Douglas Regional Dispatch received reports of what a neighbor believed to be a lifeless infant left in her backyard, located in the 500 block of Longfellow Lane in Highlands Ranch, Wasingerat 9:45 p.m. The neighbor Konrad was walking to her hot tub when she noticed the baby. She carried the child inside and called 911, according to Moorman, who was called as a witness at the latest court hearing. “She noticed her dog looking and sniffing at something on her deck,” said Moorman, the lead detective in the investigation. “She didn’t know

if it was real or not, the lighting was bad, so she picked it up and brought it inside her house.” Wearing a red jumpsuit, reading glasses and a shackle on one wrist, Wasinger-Konrad sat at a table next to her public defenders, Matt Mulch and Daniel Cunny. A handful of family members were in the courtroom for the preliminary hearing in Castle Rock. Wasinger-Konrad is charged with two counts of murder in the first degree and tampering with physical evidence. She has been denied bond. The cause and manner of the infant’s death is still being determined by the Douglas County Coroner’s Office. Wasinger-Konrad had been renting a room in a family’s Highlands Ranch home for about four months, according to details released at the hearing.

She worked at King Soopers on Highlands Ranch Parkway and Wildcat Reserve Parkway. The night of Jan. 2, after responding to the neighbor’s home, deputies noticed a bloody shower curtain in a trashcan out front of WasingerKonrad’s residence. The family said earlier that morning they had seen blood on a blanket in their backyard and in Wasinger-Konrad’s bathroom. Wasinger-Konrad told them she was vomiting blood from a medication she had been taking, according to Moorman. Moorman approached WasingerKonrad in her bedroom. She claimed she didn’t know why the detective was there. Moorman then mentioned comparing the DNA of the dead baby to the blood found in Wasinger-Konrad’s bathroom.

“Her reply was, after pausing for a second, she said, ‘Well, the thing is, I don’t want to get in trouble,’” Moorman said. Wasinger-Konrad said she had no idea she was pregnant and woke up with stomach pains that morning, Moorman said. But, according to another detective on the case, a coworker said WasingerKonrad wanted to change shifts at the grocery store because she was pregnant and couldn’t lift packages, Moorman said. Detectives didn’t ask Wasinger-Konrad’s supervisors at work if she ever confirmed she was pregnant. Her family and boyfriend at the time refused to talk to law enforcement. After she had the baby, WasingerKonrad covered its mouth and nose so it wouldn’t cry, Moorman said. Everyone in the house was still asleep. “She said the baby was still crying when she got outside,” Moorman said. “She sat on the back deck for 10 minutes trying to think of what to do.” She told Moorman she “just got rid of it.” When he asked what she meant, she said she threw the baby over the fence, according to Moorman. Wasinger-Konrad’s arraignment, when she will be formally charged, is scheduled for 10 a.m. May 22 at the Douglas County Courthouse, 4000 Justice Way.

VOICES Decades in classrooms taught a lesson about weak parenting

QUIET DESPERATION

Craig Marshall Smith

he illusion of a schoolteacher, like the ones I knew, is long gone. Modern teachers are still expected to be capable of teaching all of the subjects I was taught. On top of that, they are required to manage and maintain a palette of behavioral quirks and conditions, and to have a footing in psychology. Some are being trained to be sharpshooters as well. Whenever I hear our schools are failing our students, I never hear the word “parenting.” All of our learning does not happen in the classroom. It’s unreasonable to expect learning to begin in the classroom. Learning begins in the home. How do the people in the home treat each

other? What values are evident? What is discussed? What is watched, read, listened to? Is the father present? Is mom sober? Is the home an unconventional arrangement of guardianship? If the home is an uneven environment, and there are so many possibilities for that these days, Junior will be a challenge, a big challenge, for someone who has a teaching certificate to teach. I taught for over 30 years without any kind of certification. My sister taught grade school, and she had to be certified and re-certified. I taught college students, even though I was never taught how to teach. I learned on the

job. It still doesn’t make sense to me, but I went along with it. What walked in my door? Students who may have wanted to learn how to draw, but among them there were many special needs beyond my training. Which was none. I had to manage student behavior based on observations of life. Then along came workshops. We were counseled in sexual harassment, racial discrimination, you name it. I didn’t have a background in psychology or sociology but I picked up minors in them, virtually, on the run. SEE SMITH, P15

Taking the high road is an idea that looks better all the time

W LETTER TO THE EDITOR Make a real difference I formerly worked in a local high school kitchen and served food out front. For the most part, I saw a great group of students. But I also saw kids who ate by themselves daily and who were treated as insignificant. You don’t know the kind of load the student next to you is carrying. Maybe they’re being abused at home. Maybe they come to school hungry. Perhaps they’ve been bullied one too many times and are planning to retaliate. Maybe that person is you, and you want to find some way to take that load off your chest. Maybe it’s all you or other students can do to complete each day and escape

somewhere to cry it out alone. Maybe you could be the one to befriend the loner and make a memorable difference. Rather than planning a walk-out to protest gun violence, stop it where it starts. Walk the talk and treat others around you with dignity and respect – just as you would like to be treated. Befriend them. Talk to them. Eat with them. That’s what a true hero looks like. It’s easy to walk out of school. It’s another thing to risk the loss of friends to be one to someone who doesn’t have any. Hilary Osborne Parker

Even at the college level, I worked with students who didn’t know how to study, how to commit, follow through, show up on time, or show up at all. I was made right after the war (World War II). I am sure that on some conscious or subconscious level, I was aware of what was going on in our home, and that I was obtaining valuable learning skills. This may be an unpopular thought: Parents (or guardians) should expect more of themselves when it comes Junior learning how to learn. By the time Junior is dropped off at his very first school, a lot has already gone into that little head. Expecting an educator to make up for indifferences and fumbles in

the home is absurd. Accountability increased the longer I taught. I had more paperwork to do every year. Eventually I was doing almost as much paperwork as teaching. I was asked why my students were failing or dropping out. It must be my fault. What could I do about it? My answer was always the same: I could only lead the horse to water. It took a toll. My metal fatigued, and I got out. Were my incoming students capable of learning? Did they get off to a good start at home in the first place, before P.S. 101? I don’t like it when people point fingers at teachers. Teachers aren’t the first teachers. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

CURTIS

David Alastair Curtis 3/5/1928 – 2/26/2018

David Alastair Curtis, 89, passed away peacefully Monday, February 26th, 2018 at his home in Sedalia, Colorado. He was born in Denver, Colorado on March 5th, 1928 to parents Ed and Beulah Curtis of Oaklands Ranch, Sedalia. The Curtis family homesteaded Oaklands Ranch in 1871. Dave cherished his family and their rich history. He was raised in the homestead house of his ancestors and lived there along with his parents, grandmother, aunt, uncle, and his first/double cousin Donna. He participated in all aspects of farming and ranching from the time he was a young boy. Dave milked cows, harvested numerous crops, raised registered Hereford cattle, cut Christmas trees and boughs, and never shied from a challenge. He was always willing to help anyone and never knew a stranger. Dave married his high school sweetheart, Carol Jean Vance on April 4th, 1948. Dave knew she was “the one” the first time he laid eyes on her when she arrived at Douglas County High school. He was a true athlete- excelling in basketball and football. After high school, he attended Colorado State University, when they were known as the Aggies. Once married, Dave provided for his family by living off of the land. Dave and Carol lived on Oaklands Ranch and raised three children- David, Pam, and Joni. They were active in 4-H, Young Farmers & Homemakers, and Sedalia Presbyterian Church. They instilled the love of the land, animals, family, and Christ in their children. Dave was a remarkable story teller, always had a twinkle in his eye as he told jokes, played games, or solved puzzles. ILGEN

Dave treasured the state history of Colorado, the mountains of Douglas County, and town of Sedalia. He knew where each road began or ended and whether it was dirt or paved. He was Douglas County Commissioner from 1971-1976. Dave also provided rain and snowfall reports for the National Weather Service and NOAA for over 50 years. Dave is survived by Carol, his loving wife of almost 70 years; brother-in-law Jim Vance of Claflin, KS; sister-in-law Barbara Hall of Hutchinson, KS; and cousin/pseudo-sister Donna (Buck) Richardson of Cedaredge, CO. Also surviving are children- David (Arlene) of Sedalia, CO; Pam (Jim) Hughes of Custer, SD; Joni (Rich) Fell of Sedalia, CO; grandchildren- Traci (Lucas) Hawkins of Castle Rock, CO; Charlie (Stephanie) Curtis of Sedalia, CO; Doug (Kirsten) Fell, of Chugiak, AK; Chad Curtis of Sedalia, CO; Tyler Hughes of Rapid City, SD; greatgrandchildren- Skylar, Landen, Rori, Cayden, Axel, and Leah. He is preceded in death by his parents, his sister-in-laws Virginia Henderson, Vera Wilkins, and Bonnie Bond, and brother-in-laws Jack Vance and Jerry Vance. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made in his name to New Hope Presbyterian Church 3737 New Hope Way, Castle Rock, CO 80109 or to Porter Hospice Foundation c/o Rocky Mountain Adventist Healthcare Foundation, 2525 S. Downing Street, Denver, CO 80210. Funeral services were held March 7th, 2018 at New Hope Presbyterian Church in Castle Rock, CO. A private interment was held March 8th at Bear Canon Cemetery in Sedalia, CO.

Hitchcock hilarity at Miners Alley

Sharing the stories of

women Center for Colorado Women’s History is about more than exhibits

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The State of Colorado was the first state in the union to enfranchise women by popular vote, and in 1894, Colorado became the first state to elect women to the state Legislature. In other words, it’s safe to say Colorado has been a place for women to lead for well over a century. But it’s never had a place dedicated to celebrating the achievements of women in the state. That all changed on March 21, with the opening of the Center for Colorado Women’s History at the Byers-Evans House Museum, 1310 Bannock St., Denver. “This place provides opportunities to share the stories of women that have not been told before,” said Jillian Allison, director of the new

center. “But it’s not just about the past. We want to help uncover the stories that are happening now, and be part of the conversation for the future.” The opening was an opportunity for local leaders to celebrate National Women’s History Month, with a focus on the women that have made a particular impact on Colorado — women like Dr. Justina Ford, who became the first female African-American doctor in Denver, or Dana Crawford, who led the historic preservation efforts in the 1960s that saved many of Denver’s historic buildings. “By understanding how Colorado got to where we are today, we can uncover and appreciate the diversity of the area,” said Charleszine “Terry” Nelson, community resource manager for the Blair-Caldwell

lfred Hitchcock is one of the most important names in cinematic history, and is responsible for some of Hollywood’s most iconic films — titles like “Psycho,” “Rear Window,” “Vertigo” and “The 39 Steps.” But you don’t have to be a follower of Hitch to enjoy the madcap laughs brought to hilarious theatrical life in Patrick Barlow’s adaptation of “The 39 Steps.” Golden’s Miners Alley Playhouse, 1224 Washington COMING Ave., is hosting ATTRACTIONS “The 39 Steps” March 23 through April 29. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday and 2 p.m. on Sunday. “This is a show I’ve been circling for a while now, and one I’ve always wanted Clarke Reader to be a part of,” said Casey Andree, who plays Richard Hannay in the production. “The best thing about the show is that it really celebrates the magic of the theater.” In addition to Andree, the show features Alaina Beth Reel as the roles of Annabella Schmidt, Margaret and Pamela, John Wittbrodt as Clown One and Sean Michael Cummings as Clown Two. Both Wittbrodt’s and Cummings’ roles require them to play a variety of dozens of characters — something Hitchcock was able to do with a large cast and extras. “A lot of high jinks and hilarious characterizations ensue,” Andree said. “It’s such a fast-paced show, and there’s so much physical comedy for people who love laughing.” The show tells the story of Hannay, a man with a boring life who meets a woman with a thick accent who says she’s a spy. When he takes her home, she is murdered. Soon, a mysterious organization called “The 39 Steps” is hot on the man’s trail in a nationwide manhunt begins. Tips of the hat and Easter eggs abound for fans of Hitchcock’s oeuvre, but the show is really made for those who crave a theatrical experience that will leave them smiling. “You’re going to have a great time at this show,” Andree said. “But your face might hurt from smiling so much.” For tickets and more information, call 303-935-3044 or visit www.minersalley.com.

‘Fences’ is iconic American play on Lone Tree stage Director Wren Brown has praise for cast, facility, staff BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

“What’s really important 31 years later,” said director Wren Brown, “is that this is one of those timeless American classics. The issues are all here — nuances of race … not every playwright is honored with the Pulitzer …” The Pulitzer Prize-winning “Fences” (1945) is sixth in American playwright August Wilson’s 10-part “American Century Cycle,” which traces the African-American experience in America.

Starting April 5, Lone Tree Arts Center will produce Wilson’s “Fences,” with director Brown and a cast of eight experienced stage and screen actors, many from Brown’s Los Angeles location or New York. Several, including Essau Pritchett, who plays Troy Maxson, have performed in Wilson’s works before. “I always have my eye on one or two actors,” Brown said. Brown The story of the disappointed former baseball player, now a garbage collector; his wife, Rose; athletic son Cory; and various relatives, friends and neighbors still speaks to everyone who sees it. August Wilson (1945-2005), winner of two Pulitzer Prizes, is regarded by

His entire 10-part American Century Cycle was produced, one a year, by the Denver Center Theatre Company — and directed by the late Israel Hicks (1943-2010) — the first person to direct all 10 plays in one theater. Wilson, child of a black mother and white father, grew up in Pittsburgh’s Hill District, the setting for the Cycle.

He was involved in the Black Arts Movement and co-founded and directed a black theater, Black Horizons, according to Britannica editors. He later moved to St. Paul, Minnesota, where he wrote several plays. Selfeducated at the public library after dropping out of high school, his first major play success was “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom” (Broadway, 1984). Israel Hicks and Wren Brown cofounded LA’s 10-year-old Ebony Repertory Theatre and Brown leads that professional theater today, as well as being a working actor — and involved in educational projects as well as the busy LA theatrical community.

AUGUST WILSON’S APRIL 5-21, 2018 PREVIEW: WEDNESDAY, APRIL 4

Directed by Wren T. Brown, founder of L.A.'s Ebony Repertory Theatre, August Wilson's Fences revolves around the life of garbage collector Troy Maxson. When his rise through the Negro baseball leagues hit the ceiling of racial prejudice, Maxson turned away from a world of unfulﬁlled promises and denied opportunities. But in 1957, his son Cory, an emerging football star, sees the world through very different eyes, and his wife Rose yearns for an outlet for her love. Featuring a stellar cast of stars of stage and screen, Fences is a sensational drama that will move you deeply, staying with you long after you leave the theater.

Friends flock to celebrate woman’s 102nd birthday Mary Cornish’s life story includes performance, dance instruction, art BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

She saw the rise and fall of vaudeville, first as a solo performer and then as a dancer in a two-person act with her accordion-playing husband in the 1930s. She traveled the country and had three children by the time the family settled in Denver during the 1940s. Then, she forged a career as a dance instructor for the University of Denver and added art lessons in the 1960s, becoming a prolific oil and pastel artist. In short, Mary Cornish has lived a storied life. She spent years in Sedalia before moving to the Pine Trails Senior Living home in Castle Rock, where on March 22 she celebrated her 102nd birthday. Cornish lived at home alone — in the Oak Valley house she and her husband built — until six months ago. Those close to her say she’s used her time on earth well. “I have to get in a line to give you a hug,” a woman told Cornish during the birthday celebration, just one in the train of people showering her with hugs and well-wishes. Cornish was surrounded. Seated at her table were women she’s known for decades and filling the room around them were friends Cornish has collected through her 102 years. The ladies asked about her past career — she’d been a ballroom dancer, right?

Mary Cornish celebrated her 102nd birthday with a party on March 22 attended by friends and family in Castle Rock. JESSICA GIBBS No, Cornish said, because she’d done a little of everything. Ballet, acrobatics and tap made the list, too. She began dancing and performing as soon as she graduated from high school in 1933, and eventually met her husband, Ron, also a performer. The two traveled wherever there was work, and eventually married on stage at a since torn-down but famous vaudeville venue, Keith’s Theatre in Syracuse, New York. The ladies listened eagerly to Cornish as she recounted memories from the various stages of her life.

To Cornish’s right was Fleta Nockels, who traveled from Bonaventure Senior Living across town for the party. The women met so long ago they can’t be sure of what year that was, only the decade. “Since 1966, or something like that,” Nockels said, turning to Cornish to see if she knew the date. “It’s been a long time,” Cornish said after giving it some thought. The women agree to settle on “the 1960s.” Nockels and Cornish grew to be friends as members of the same neighborhood group, which mostly spent time on hiking trips. One of their favorite spots was the Devil’s Head Trail and lookout tower located several miles west of Sedalia. The Devil’s Head trips were weekly excursions through the “‘60s, ‘70s, ‘80s,” Nockels said. As the years went on, age never slowed Cornish down. Just ask Billy Ellis, a fire lookout who met Cornish through his work at the Devil’s Head lookout tower. The lookout tower, one of the remaining few original lookout towers still in service along the Front Range, concludes a 1.4-mile trail and is only reachable by climbing a 143-step stairwell. One of the last times Ellis saw Cornish was on her final climb up the tower — at age 93. “I’ll see you at the tower,” Cornish said to Ellis as he prepared to leave her party. “Are you coming up this year,” he asked. “I don’t know,” Cornish said with a smile. Once she’d retired the dance shoes and paintbrushes, Cornish loved walks, whether it was a hike to Pike National Forest historical sites or a stroll

through her neighborhood. “She just picks up her walking stick and she’s off,” recalled Bev Larsen, a friend from the Canyon Quilters quilting club and the Sedalia Museum. “Mary would walk every day. That’s why she is the way she is at 102,” said Judy Penley, who met Cornish through the Sedalia Museum. “It just broke her heart one day when she had to use a cane.” There’s little walking these days, Cornish said. She gets tired easily, and her favorite pastime has become “taking naps,” she chuckled. As her friends will tell you, however, she’s still active and her mind is sharp. That’s part of the reason partygoers said they were drawn to her. “It was just interesting to talk to such a knowledgeable, kind, humble person,” Penley said of their 10-year friendship. Dennis Cornish, the middle child among Cornish’s three sons, moved to the Sedalia area to help care for his mother in 2000. “She’ll probably outlive everybody,” he said. Looking around the room at her birthday gathering, he took in the number of people there to celebrate his mother. “When you have this many friends, you’ve done well in life,” he said. “It’s a good indication of how you lived.” For that, Cornish was grateful. As the party crowd dwindled she could say it was a good day. From the more than a century she’s lived, it is the people, she said, that are her favorite memories. “Besides being flattered, it makes me feel really good. I love all of these people,” Cornish said of the party. “These friends through the years, it’s so good to see them.”

Couple wins honeymoon cruise at wedding expo Colorado Community Media sponsored the event in Littleton STAFF REPORT

One happy couple walked away with a honeymoon cruise from Highlands Ranch Travel, and about 150 people got a chance to talk to more than 40 wedding professionals at The Falls Event Center in Littleton on March 25. Colorado Community Media hosted its first wedding expo, partnering with Highlands Ranch Travel and The Falls Event Center, the event’s presenting sponsor, for the event. “This was a fantastic event, full of happy engaged couples connecting with vendors ready to help make their day special,” said Jerry Healey, president and publisher of Colorado Community Media, which produces 18 weekly newspapers throughout the metro area. “The vendors went all out decorating booths, sampling food and engaging our attendees with interesting and informative information. Everyone had

a great time and even saw some dance moves break out. The Colorado Community Media events team, led by Special Projects Manager Thelma Grimes, did a great job coordinating and leading this event.” Engaged couple Chad Howard and Mars Simich were surprised to be named the grand-prize winners of the Colorado Community Media Cutest Engagement Story Contest, which was sponsored by Highlands Ranch Travel. With nearly 30 entries, judges from Highlands Ranch Travel chose Howard for his unique, personal story. “It was very rewarding to give it to such a deserving couple,” said Dan Kraft, manager of Highlands Ranch Travel. “Every story entered had a fun and unique story. It was hard to pick a winner, but I really feel we chose the right couple. It came down to their story. It truly hit the heart.” Howard submitted the story about a proposal that he agreed might have some do a double take, given it was on his grandmother’s graveside. For Howard and Simich, winning the grand prize couldn’t have come at a better time. With Simich’s mother ill, and the cost of planning their wedding in

October, a honeymoon was looking near impossible. They will go to either the Caribbean or Alaska. Talking about her fiancé entering the contest, Simich said, “The way he did this, I couldn’t have imagined anything more romantic. It was so personal, so loving, so kind. I’ve never done a cruise. I never thought a honeymoon would be possible.” Howard said, “I think what (Highlands Ranch Travel) has made happen for us is fantastic,” Howard said. “I couldn’t be more thankful. This will be something for us to really be with each other.”

There were three couples chosen as the finalists or the contest, including Howard, Annie Smiley and Autumn Shea. The second and third finalists were treated to an overnight stay at Table Mountain Inn in Golden. The entertainment was provided by Dancin Shoes DJ services, which also gave one lucky couple a $250 gift card, which was part of more than $4,000 in raffle prizes given throughout the day from a variety of participants.

Sandhill cranes put on amazing show in Colorado San Luis Valley is paradise for birders as magnificent creatures visit

IF YOU GO We enjoy the drive south on Highway 285 to Monte Vista, with a lunch stop in Fairplay or Buena Vista — it takes about four hours including the leisurely stop. Drive south past the spectacular Collegiate Range. We have stayed at the Movie Manor Motel since my children were small and still head there, but Monte Vista has other motels and the Rio Grande National Forest and Sand Dunes National Park have campgrounds.

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

It was time for our annual family “migration” to Monte Vista in the beautiful San Luis Valley. For three days in March, we stand transfixed by the continual chorus of crane calls — and the sight of fields covered with these large, graceful birds, rooting in fields or puddles for food and at times dancing, bouncing, flapping wings. This year, I spent three delightful days with my daughter, a serious birder, and son-in-law, who looks at the world with a painter’s eye. Mountains with snowy peaks surround the agricultural valley and blue Western skies are continually changing cloud formations. (We are well aware of the Nebraska migrating flocks, but this location is just so idyllic.) And then, there are those spectacular fly-overs! Thousands of birds take off at once — calling as they go — to another, less exposed, place to feed more — or roost safely for the night, depending on the time of day. The sky is filled with huge clouds of huge birds — necks and wings outstretched and legs straight behind, constantly communicating with each other.

Sandhill Cranes fill the skies near the Monte Vista Wildlife Refuge on March 13, calling to each other as they fly. PHOTO BY KIRSTEN ORAHOOD For about six weeks, or a bit longer, in March and early April, the Monte Vista National Wildlife Refuge hosts thousands (2018 estimate: 27,000) of sandhill cranes, migrating north to their nesting grounds in northern Yellowstone Park and into Idaho. Flocks have followed this route for more than 5,000 years, we are told. There are photos of very ancient rock art near Monte Vista (locale not divulged), which depict these birds in flight. (They return in September, if the

reader is not free now.) Farmers leave grain in the fields to feed the birds and wetlands are carefully managed. The drill is: Head out in the morning (after breakfast for this lazy birder — crack of dawn for some!) to watch feeding and dancing at several viewing sites. Then, from mid-morning, when most birds head elsewhere, until late afternoon (4-6 p.m.), explore the surrounding area — visit old towns, hike in Penitente Canyon, the nearby Sand Dunes or elsewhere, enjoy pie

at the Sunflower Café, just be there! About tea time, flocks begin to fly in again to the refuge wetlands, where they stay for several hours, with groups coming and going — and calling. These large birds, with gray plumage, white head, a red crown spot and drooping black tail feathers, have a six- to seven-foot wingspan when flying and stand tall on long legs. Pairs mate for life, but still engage in spring dancing. The female lays two or three eggs, but usually only one chick survives to fledge. It stays with the parents until the following spring, when it is kicked out to travel on its own. They don’t reach sexual maturity and mate until 3e years old and continue to travel with the flock. The adolescents are slightly smaller and don’t yet have the red crown. If you have more time, explore the wonderful Sand Dunes National Park nearby, which has campgrounds and hiking trails.

SPORTS ALL-SOUTH METRO BASKETBALL TEAMS

Loaded with

talent BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Most basketball coaches would love to have a well-rounded team. With the 14 players — seven boys and seven girls — selected to the 2017-18 Colorado Community Media All-South Metro teams, that is exactly what a coach would have. The boys team would have outstanding guard play from Rock Canyon’s Sam Masten, Kaison Hammonds of ThunderRidge and Tyson Gilbert of Rock Canyon. Ronnie DeGray III of Chaparral, Highlands Ranch’s Brendan Sullivan, Connor Staib of Mountain Vista and Ponderosa’s Connor Hawk can swing from playing in the paint or can shoot from the perimeter. The girls team has floor leaders in guards Tommi Olson of Highlands Ranch and Jana Van Gytenbeek of Cherry Creek, plus an accurate shooter in Dani Mills of Mountain Vista. And there would be no worries about rebounding or scoring inside, with Autumn Watts of Highlands Ranch, Madison Hema of Castle View, Sydney Speights of Chaparral and Rebekah Sandstrom of Littleton. The biggest question for both squads would be which five players to put on the court at the same time. The teams were picked by the CCM sports staff, with input from area coaches. Players were eligible from schools in the Littleton and Englewood districts, Cherry Creek High School and all schools in Douglas County.

GIRLS Autumn Watts, Highlands Ranch Class: Junior Height: 6-1 Did you know? She led the Continental League in scoring (16.7 ppg), rebounding (9.9 rpg) and double doubles (12) in addition to delivering Christmas baskets and helping feed the homeless on Thanksgiving in northeast Denver.

Tommi Olson, Highlands Ranch Class: Senior Height: 5-5 Did you know? The University of Wyomingbound point guard led the Continental League in assists (6.5 per game) and steals (4.8) while scoring 12.2 ppg. She is a member of the National Honor Society.

Jana Van Gytenbeek, Cherry Creek Class: Sophomore Height: 5-7 Did you know? The floor leader is a Stanford commit who led all 5A players in assists with 7.8 per game and scored at a 16.4 ppg clip. She scored 32 points against Overland, with six assists and six steals.

Madison Hema, Castle View Class: Junior Height: 6-2 Did you know? She has been invited to try out for the New Zealand U 17 national team. She led the Continental League with 3.6 blocked shots a game, while scoring 8.6 points per game and averaging 7.8 rebounds per contest.

Rebekah Sandstrom, Littleton Class: Senior Height: 6-1 Did you know? The Regis University recruit is the school’s all-time rebounding leader with 1,053 and the 4.0 International Baccalaureate student averaged 11.3 rebounds, 8.8 points, 1.8 blocks and had seven double doubles this season.

Sydney Speights, Chaparral Class: Junior Height: 6-2 Did you know? She was an inside force, averaging 11.6 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.8 blocks a game and is a National Honor Society and Link Crew member.

Dani Mills, Mountain Vista

Shot clock debate picks up tempo

D Valor Christian’s Luke Wheeler is the Colorado Community Media South Metro Hockey Player of the Year. PAUL DISALVO

Valor forward achieves impressive numbers on ice Luke Wheeler gets nod as hockey player of year BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Luke Wheeler finished his short Valor Christian hockey career in impressive fashion. The senior led Valor into the Colorado state hockey tournament finals, topped the state in scoring with 56 points and was selected as the 2017-18 Colorado Community Media South Metro Hockey Player of the Year. Last season was his first complete season with the Valor Christian Eagles. Wheeler enrolled as a freshman at Valor but played hockey for the Colorado Thunderbirds. As a sophomore he asked Valor coach George Gwozdecky if he could practice with the Eagles and the Thunderbirds at first approved. He actually played a few games for Valor but not enough to be eligible for the state playoffs. He played hockey as a junior at Choate Rosemary Hall in Wallingford, Connecticut, but returned to Valor for his senior season to play for Gwozdecky. “I was happy with the season I had,” said Wheeler. “The biggest thing I wanted to get out of it was improvement. Just like a lot of other guys, I am working to play at the next level. The biggest thing to get there is to get better. I felt like I did that this year with skills, smarts, quickness and all that. I was happy with all the points. It was a good year for me.”

Wheeler, a 5-foot-9, 170-pound forward, finished with 30 goals and 26 assists but dislocated his shoulder in Valor’s semifinal win over Monarch and had to sit out the championship loss to Regis Jesuit. “We had a very talented offensive team,” said Gwozdecky. “Luke wasn’t the only big scorer on the team. He was equally excited making great plays and setting up someone else. He won 60 percent of his face-offs. “He is one of those guys that is very quiet, humble and responsible. He is extremely mature for his age. You know you will get his best in practice, games and the classroom.” Wheeler, who resides in Golden, was the Colorado Hobey Baker High School Character Award winner and he organized and directed a Military Appreciation Night for the Jan. 6 Valor hockey game at the Ice Ranch. Gwozdecky still gets comments from people saying it was one of the best events Valor has ever put together. “The idea has been around all over in the NHL, NBA MLB and everywhere,” said Wheeler. “I just wanted to bring something like that to my high school. We actually did that last year at the prep school that I attended and it gave me the idea of what I wanted to bring back to Valor. “I thought it would be cool to do because I love our country and the veterans that served. I got together with some of the faculty and some players on the hockey team. The more and more we got into and the more people heard about it, the bigger and bigger it got. It was real cool we pulled it off.”

oes high school basketball need a shot clock? Would it help or hinder prep games? Let the longstanding debate resume. It’s been a hot topic for years. USA Basketball and the NBA on March 20 announced a set of age-specific guidelines, and one of the recommendations was a 24-second shot clock for boys and girls in grades 9-12. The National Federation of State High School Associations has a rule that shot clocks are not allowed. California, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, Washington, Rhode Island, North Dakota and South Dakota do use 30- to OVERTIME 35-second shot clocks, but those states forfeit their chance to have an input into the NFHS Basketball Rules Committee, which is one of the reasons the Colorado High School Activities Association is reluctant to add shot clocks. Jim Benton So unless a national rule is passed, it could be a while before Colorado teams will have to shoot the ball before the 24-, 30- or 35-second time limit. “The latest stats show that nearly 65 percent of the states did not want it (shot clock),” said CHSAA assistant commissioner Bert Borgmann. “I have had conversations with folks in several states that have the shot clock. They like it but stop short of saying it makes the game better. It’s a different game.” According to CHSAANow.com, the NFHS considers adopting the shot clock every year, and a survey prior to the 2017 rules committee meeting stated that 57 percent of coaches were in favor of a shot clock, 39 percent against and 4 percent had no opinion. More than 6,000 coaches across the nation responded, including 357 from Colorado. State associations were against using a shot clock with 62 percent holding that position, compared to 34 percent in favor and 4 percent having no opinion. The NBA has a 24-second shot clock and college basketball a 30-second shot clock. “I think we are ready for the shot clock,” said ThunderRidge coach Joe Ortiz. “Thirty or 35 seconds would be best.” The biggest con against adoption is the price and installation of a shot clock, which could range from between $2,000 and $5,000 depending on whether the clock is attached to the scoreboard or backboard. Some schools with older scoreboards might even need a new one, which could be costly. And schools would need to find competent people to operate the shot clock. Pros include getting players ready for the next level, preventing stalling tactics, increasing the pace of games and possibly forcing teams to shore up on defensive tactics. SEE BENTON, P43

The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development will bid the lesser amount of the loan balance or the appraised value obtained by the Secretary prior to sale. There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his prorated share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale. When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling 10% of the Secretary’s bid in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out to the Secretary of HUD. A deposit need not be accompany each oral bid. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of 10% of the Secretary’s bid must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier’s check. If the Secretary is the highest bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash. The successful bidder will pay all conveying fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery date of the remainder of the payment and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them. The Secretary may grant an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extension will be for 15-day increments for a fee of $500.00, paid in advance. The extension fee shall be in the form of certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due. If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit, or at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure. The Commissioner may, at the direction of the HUD representative, offer the property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder. There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the mortgagor or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant to the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein, HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant. The scheduled foreclosure sale shall be cancelled or adjourned if it is established, by documented written application of the mortgagor to the Foreclosure Commissioner no less than three (3) days before the date of sale, or otherwise, that the default or defaults upon which the foreclosure is based did not exist at the time of service of this notice of default and foreclosure sale, or all amounts due under the mortgage agreement are tendered to the Foreclosure Commissioner, in the form of a certified cashier’s check payable to the Secretary of HUD, before the public auction of the property is completed.

Highlands Ranch coach Mike Gibbs would be supportive of the change to a shot clock but said games would be more sloppy with more mistakes; the shot selection would be questionable; passing, finishing and decision-making would be a concern for non-athletic teams; and scoring could be up or down depending on the player’s skill levels. “We would have some challenges, that’s for sure, because not many student-athletes today truly have the basketball IQ to play up-tempo,” said Gibbs. “In addition, proper skill development from youth to high school would be vital for success. “I have personally watched games in California at the high school and national AAU tournaments. What I have observed over the years: Teams are certainly playing faster, but the total scoring is very similar to Colorado without a shot clock during the official high school season.” It is probably just when and not if a shot clock rule is implemented. “It would be a great thing because that’s the way the game is played now,” said former Highlands Ranch coach Bob Caton, who now coaches at Mullen. “I

would be in favor of it because you get the kids juiced to the play the game at a different tempo. You could see some pressing going on because you would press not so much to steal the ball but to keep the other team from getting into their offense real early. “If you watch games, even the teams that play conservatively, usually a shot goes up before 30 seconds or balls are getting thrown away. It might give them more of a mindset that they have to do it.” Castle View girls coach Matt Hema said the use of a shot clock might affect girls basketball more than boys. “It would not change the boys game much except late in games when a team has an 8-10 point lead,” he said. “It would change the girls game a lot and keep the pace of play going and eliminate those coaches and teams that want to play slow and stall with leads. “I think they should implement the shot clock. I don’t see it ever getting implemented on a national scale. I think they will leave it up to the high school organizations and I would be surprised if the CHSAA ever implemented this.” Jim Benton is a sports writer for Colorado Community Media.
