Beloved teacher set for next chapter Nancy Gruber-Meier is retiring after 24 years at school By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Students accidentally call her mom. She has a heart for reading, her students, her school and her community. “She’s someone who was super-influential in my life,” 22-year-old Aubrey Heth said. Heth is talking about Nancy GruberMeier, who taught her in kindergarten. And, who, after 24 years of teaching at South Ridge Elementary in Castle Rock, is retiring at the end of this school year. “It’s time,” Gruber-Meier said while sitting at a small table in a portable where she does one-on-one reading and writing instruction.

By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Independent hearing officer Karen Goldman, Aurora’s deputy city clerk, has denied all eight protests filed against the recall petition for District 1 Councilmember and Castle Rock Mayor Paul Donahue. Goldman’s decision was announced May 2, four days after a nearly threehour hearing in which residents explained their reasons for filing the protests. Based on evidence presented during the hearing, Goldman found “no credible evidence of Donahue petition failure as part of any of the protests.” Now, per town MORE ON charter and state statutes, Castle Rock HEARING Town Council must set a recall election.

HELLO
... My Name Is
A glimpse of the people in our community
JESSICA GRONQUIST Castle Rock mom, nurse, essential oil advocate About me By day I’m a pediatric nurse. I work with kiddos in their homes, helping them with rehabilitation to get them back to some kind of normalcy. In my spare time, I work with DoTerra Essential Oils in helping people learn alternative health care that suits them. Using essential oils After starting essential oils, I saw a progress and health in my family. I wasn’t sick as much, I saw a reduction in sickness in my kiddo — warding off those dirty day-care germs. I saw wellness with my husband and his allergies. It’s just been a continuing success. On
Guard is my go-to oil. It’s our protective blend. It is the one we use to ward off illness. Repurposing furniture In my spare time, I refinish furniture. I buy or find furniture that has been left for dead and bring it back to life through things like chalk paint and stain. I do a lot of refurb and repurpose. When I’m done, I sell it on Facebook and at a consignment shop in Castle Rock. Right now, my favorite project is a dining room table I found. It’s an old farmhouse table and I’m excited about working on it. Being outside I love anything outdoors. I go hiking and to the parks with the kid and my husband. And any outdoor sports. We love to go to the baseball and football games and to the lake. Helping others Helping people is a passion. I love nursing. I love seeing kids progress and get better. I know that’s not always the outcome, but it’s fantastic when it does happen. If you have suggestions for My Name Is…, contact Shanna Fortier at sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com.
Wendy Hightower, 35 and eight months pregnant, sat on the grass near a small gray and bronze headstone adorned with trinkets of family life — a snow globe from Disney World, a ceramic Easter Ann Macari bunny, shiny pinwheels that spin in a Healey breeze. As she had done almost every day for two years, Wendy talked to her daughter, Madison, an exuberant 2-year-old who had died suddenly from an E. coli infection. Regan Beisenherz-Rouse, 18, exploring the cemetery for photos to shoot for class, noticed as Wendy laid crimson Stargazer lilies — a flower Regan loved — on the ground. She saw the tears on her face. And she felt compelled to walk over. Wendy told her she had lost a child. That these 15 minutes on her way home were her one-on-one prayer time with Madison. That when the baby was born, she wouldn’t be able to visit every day. Regan told Wendy about her passion for photography and dancing with the Littleton High School team. They talked for about 20 minutes, then said goodbye. But Wendy couldn’t stop thinking about Regan, wondering how she spelled her name, turning the conversation over and over in her mind. “I don’t know why I felt so strong about it — I just did,” Wendy says about the encounter. “I didn’t have her last name. I didn’t figure I’d ever see her again.” A week later, Wendy found a Ziploc bag resting on Madison’s grave. Inside was a photograph of her headstone. On the back, these words: “Now, you’ll be able to see her every day. Regan.”
Regan Beisenherz-Rouse, left, meets her namesake, Regan Hightower, for the first time. Courtesy photo Wendy started to cry. And so begins this story about how an act of kindness nearly 17 years ago set in motion a chain of events that spun threads of joy from sorrow. How, sometimes, something as simple as a name can mean everything. And how, maybe, just maybe, unseen forces weave a little magic when it’s most needed. • • • Madison was the third child in Wendy and Dennis Hightower’s family. Soon after her death in August 1997, they decided to reverse Dennis’ vasectomy, performed after Madison’s birth.

Go-kart track going places Two-story facility will house indoor electric thrill rides
By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com For Jim Mundle, a Castle Rock entrepreneur, it’s all about creating an experience. The self-proclaimed “Disney guy,” who learned how to do just that while working at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, moved to Colorado in 2004 from Orlando. It hasn’t taken him long to put that training to use: His new endeavor, Overdrive Raceway, is the country’s first twostory, indoor electric go-kart track. “This won’t just be an attraction, it will be an entire experience,” Mundle said of the track, which is set to open at the end of May in Colorado Springs. “This has been my dream for the past four years.” Overdrive Raceway will be a housed in a 68,000-square-foot steel building at Polaris Pointe, a new retail complex southeast of the interchange of Interstate 25 and North Gate Boulevard, east of the Air Force Academy, next to Bass Pro Shops.

Starting in late May, crews will be working along Plum Creek Parkway, between Perry Street and Interstate 25, to add lanes and smooth out the road. Making these improvements will mean a bit of inconvenience to drivers this summer, and the Town of Castle Rock is seeking residents’ feedback. The town will host an open house from 5:30-7:30 p.m. on May 12, at Town Hall, 100 N. Wilcox St. The duration and related impact to traffic will depend on feedback received. Specific intersection information is as follows: At Perry Street and Plum Creek Parkway, a dedicated right-turn lane will be added from southbound Perry Street to westbound Plum Creek Parkway. At Wilcox Street and Plum Creek Parkway, the intersection will be reconstructed to improve drainage and ride quality by removing the dip on the east side of this intersection. Additional turn lanes will also be added to improve traffic flow for westbound Plum Creek Parkway and northbound Wilcox Street. At I-25 and Plum Creek Parkway, new electronic signage will provide an additional right-turn lane for drivers to access the northbound I-25 on-ramp during heavy morning traffic hours. Also, the lanes on the southbound off-ramp will be rearranged for better traffic flow. Crews will also repair the pavement, curbs and sidewalks along Plum Creek Parkway between Douglas County Fairgrounds and Wilcox Street. Residents who can’t attend the open house but want to provide feedback should visit CRgov.com/PCP.

Residents voice protests to mayoral recall Hearing officer has five days to arrive at ruling By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com The cost of a recall election. The reasons for it. The notion that some residents who signed the petition may have been inebriated. And a question as to whether residents really understood they were supporting a recall of Castle Rock Mayor Paul Donahue. Donahue and seven other residents protesting the mayor’s recall petition listed those points and more to hearing officer Karen Goldman on April 28 at Castle Rock Town Hall. On May 2, Goldman denied the protests, leading town council to discuss the pending recall election. But before she arrived at her decision, she listened to testimony at the hearing from people passionate about both sides of the issue. “A recall is part of the democratic elective process,” said Goldman, who firmly told hearing attendees to put away their signs before the hearing began. “They aren’t pretty. They can be very difficult. They certainly are personal and they often elicit very strong emotions on both sides.” Castle Rock residents Suzanne Hackett, John Buckley and Malia Reeves initiated a recall petition for Donahue as mayor and District 1 councilmember. Recall petitions for Councilmembers Renee Valentine and Mark Heath were also initiated and are still in the circulation phase. Specific incidents cited in the petition to recall Donahue allege he had dramatically reduced allotted time for public comment; denied residents the opportunity to speak; and has shown deference
Petition circulator Stacey Rogers consults with Castle Rock resident Bill Placke before the protest hearing held April 28. Photos by Shanna Fortier to out-of-town developers and “citizens who support his personal and political interests.” Castle Rock Town Clerk Sally Misare validated 242 recall-petition signatures on April 11. The petitioners needed a minimum of 147 valid signatures to move forward. The eight protests were filed between April 18 and 21. Disputing signatures The biggest discussion focused on whether voters who signed the petition did so knowing they were signing to recall Donahue, rather than to stop growth in Castle Rock. In his formal protest filed with the
Some cite sense of intimidation Mayor, supporters visited homes of voters who signed recall petition By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Before the April 28 protest hearing, District 1 Councilmember and Castle Rock Mayor Paul Donahue and his supporters went door-to-door visiting residents who signed the recently circulated petition calling for his recall. “In order to determine if my protest would be valid, it was necessary to speak with individuals who had signed the petition and make sure it was presented accurately by the petitioners,” Donahue said. “Face-to-face contact is the most efficient way to do this since I had their addresses, but no phone numbers.” Donahue obtained names and addresses of petition signers through a Colorado Open Records Act request for the signed petition. Donahue and his supporters contacted 32 people, about 13 percent of voters who signed the petition. “We had some great conversations and had excellent feedback from a number of individuals,” Donahue said. From those encounters, Donahue and his team collected 15 sworn statements they said indicated signers had been misled when they were presented the petition. Those statements were submitted at the April 28 protest hearing. But some voters and petitioners saw this door-to-door interaction as a way to intimidate petition-signers into changing their minds. “I have major concerns about the actions of Paul Donahue in going doorto-door to people that have signed (the petition),” said John Buckley, who is one of the three recall petitioners. “We have people who have indicated that they felt harassed and intimidated by his presence and others that were in his group that did the same. And so, it seems to me that this may be legal, but it is unethical and inappropriate for Paul
Donahue to engage in such activity. This is a type of behavior that we believe is indicative of Mr. Donahue’s leadership of the town.” Donahue is not the first elected official in Colorado on the cusp of a recall election to specifically seek out petition signers. In 2013, Democratic state Sen. Angela Giron of Pueblo knocked on doors and called those who signed a petition to recall her. Members of Pueblo United for Angela said they wanted to make sure people knew what they signed. In that case, petition signers also reported feeling harassed. When questioned about the alleged intimidation, Donahue said he wasn’t aware of any confrontations, but is not surprised that voters complained of intimidation. “Once some people heard I was doing this, they said they were intimidated on Facebook, even though no one ever knocked on their door,” Donahue said. Still, some residents are concerned about the outcome Donahue’s actions could have on the signing of future petitions in the town. “The intimidation tactics deployed by Donahue should be an issue for everyone interested in promoting civil society, democratic processes and substantive discussion of matters important to the quality of life in our community,” said Castle Rock resident Bill Placke. “The ability to express views and launch citizen initiatives should be respected. The tactics of petition-signer intimidation being deployed by Donahue is contemptible in a free society. Imagine the government getting your name and address, showing up at your front door (and) asking about your signature on a petition that opposes the government or its policies. It is reprehensible conduct in a civil society.” Despite testimony given by Buckley at the April 28 protest hearing, hearing officer Karen Goldman said the issue wasn’t relevant to the ruling she would be making. Castle Rock Town Clerk Sally Misare and Castle Rock attorney Bob Slentz have directed residents who felt intimidated to file a report with the police department.
town clerk on April 21, Donahue specifically called into question the methods of petition circulator Stacey Rogers and petitioner Buckley. At the April 28 hearing, Donahue read several sworn statements he obtained by visiting homes of residents who signed the recall petition. The statements said they believed they were signing a petition to stop growth or that the information had been presented to them inaccurately. Goldman, however, pointed out the petition title, which is capitalized on each document page, reads “petition to recall Paul Donahue from the office of councilmember for the town of Castle Rock.” Goldman, Aurora’s deputy city clerk, also noted the warning on each page that tells voters not to sign “unless you have read or have had read to you the proposed measure in its entirety and understand its meaning.” “I don’t know what words crossed
in front of their eyes and what they interpreted from them,” Rogers said in response to a question from Goldman. “I do know this (petition) was presented to them with the signature sheet and a warning and the title on each of those pages.” Residents Rebecca Smoldt and Lana Wagner submitted protests saying Rogers obtained signatures from voters under the influence of alcohol at Maddie’s Biergarten on April 1, a Friday night. A screenshot of Rogers’ Facebook status that night was submitted with Wagner’s protest letter. In the image, Rogers’ status includes a “drinking beer” check-in at Maddie’s Biergarten with a caption that reads, “Getting petition signatures and watching the Caps and Avs!” “I felt there was a massive lack of respect for the process,” Smoldt said during her testimony at the hearing. “This process has thrown a bombshell into people lives, into families’ lives and it’s created a rift in the town of Castle Rock. And yet, it seems like it’s been treated like a joke, insinuating that signatures were taken from inebriated residents.” But Rogers testified that although she was at the bar, she did not obtain any signatures while there. “When I signed the affidavit on the back of the signature packet, I attested to not misrepresenting the contents of the petition,” Rogers said. “Yet when I post on Facebook, I sign no such affidavit. I can write whatever I want on there. But to this situation, I have followed the law specifically.” Opposing grounds and expense One protester, Langford Jordan, who was not present at the hearing, wrote in his protest, “The points cited by the petitioners are either opinions, unfounded accusations or so broad in nature they have no value and (are) almost impossible to verify …. I adamantly oppose and protest the recall and the spending of our tax money on a recall that is clearly Protests continues on Page 6

New accessory motorsport uses are temporarily prohibited By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Until a permitting process is established by Douglas County, new accessory motorsport uses are temporarily prohibited.

driven by personal agendas and hurt feelings.” Three other protesters opposed the
accessory uses in any agricultural or residential zone district. With the adoption of this definition, the board directed staff to create a permitting process for accessory motorsports before Aug. 24. Accessory use is the operation of offhighway vehicles for recreational purposes, where the activity does not require moving more than 50 cubic yards of dirt. This activity would be allowed on lots of at least 4.5 acres, with a residence estab-
lished. This type of activity is personal use only. On Oct. 27, 2015, the board placed temporary regulations on motorsport uses, while directing staff to establish permanent zoning regulations. For the past six months, county zoning staff has sought community input to help create permanent regulations. The commissioners approved the regulations at the April 26 meeting, which
now require all private motorsport facilities, on parcels 35-acres or greater in size, to be subject to the Use By Special Review process. Per state law, existing tracks of all sizes are grandfathered in. New regulations only apply to tracks created in the future.

reasons given for the petition — even though one of them, Jeff Samuelson, stated at the hearing he had not read the petition. The two others, Arielle Clay and Lori Makkai, said they read a copy of the petition on social media. “On the petition, the grounds for
recall included the growth of Castle Rock being too fast and giving preference to out-of-town builders,” Clay testified. “But the growth plan for Castle Rock was in place long before Mayor Donahue came into office and this was misleading on the petition.” Makkai noted Donahue was one vote in a majority that voted to reduce public comment time during town council meetings and more than just one vote is required to pass a motion. Makkai and protester Kira James also said the price tag of a recall election — reported by the town clerk at $10,000 — was reason enough to stop the process. James noted, too, that the termlimited mayor’s tenure on council expires in November. Donahue was elected to council in 2008 and has been mayor since 2011. “I just don’t understand why we need to go through all the pain and frustration
and money of a recall when in a few months we can all vote for whoever we’d like,” James said. Buckley, one of the three residents who initiated the petition, felt differently. “Everyone seems to be making a judgment and an expectation that there will be a cost,” he said. “I would like to point out that there does not need to be a cost involved with any election — there does not need to be an election. Donahue has the opportunity to resign from council, and that would not cost the town any funds.” Donahue’s attorney, Abraham Laydon, made it clear in his closing statements that Donahue will not resign. “He’s not going to back down because of three people on a committee that went out and collected signatures at a bar.”

Colon cancer survivor urges screenings Parker Adventist Hospital offers fixed-price colonoscopy program
By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Darin Johnson was shocked to learn he had cancer. “It was totally unexpected, and I really don’t think that it sunk in until a couple days later,” Johnson said. “It was the furthest thing from my mind.” Johnson had planned to have a colonoscopy when he was younger, but “life got in the way” and he procrastinated. At the urging of his wife, Nancy, he scheduled a screening when he turned 50 last July, the age when screenings are recommended by health care professionals. “He’s a guy who’s very fit, exercises and does all the right things,” said Johnson’s
Patients drink a Gatorade-like beverage before the procedure to clear the intestines and a fast-acting anesthetic makes the process seem to end in the blink of an eye, Sun said. For Johnson, the inconvenience of having a colonoscopy is far outweighed by the benefits. “It’s such a simple procedure,” he said. “It can keep you alive and keep you healthy for many many more years. But procrastination … we feel like we’re invincible until something happens.” Even with screenings at age 50, 10 percent of colon cancer victims under the age of 50 will be missed, Sun said. He suggests following the recommended schedule for screenings: age 45 for African-Americans and age 50 for others. Sun said that although awareness of the dangers of colon cancer is up, many more people could be saved if they followed screening guidelines. “We’re still only hitting 50-55 percent of people who need screening,” he said.
physician, Dr. John Sun. “He comes in expecting a clean bill of health … And yet, we discovered colon cancer.” Johnson’s routine colonoscopy revealed cancerous growths, known as adenomas, going through his colon and into the muscle tissue and lymph nodes around it. Sun wasted no time, getting Johnson to the operating room just 10 days after the screening. The surgery went very smoothly and Johnson is now responding well to chemotherapy. Sun touted Parker Adventist Hospital’s fixed-price colonoscopy program. A procedure that can add up to thousands of dollars is offered for a flat rate of $1,000 at the hospital. Sun said patients come from around the United States to take advantage of the lower price. Sun said he understands that getting a colonoscopy may not sound like fun. But he added that the procedure, from preparing the bowels to the colonoscopy itself, has gotten much easier than it used to be.

“We’re missing a lot of people.” Johnson said younger friends of his have already been screened since hearing of his diagnosis, and he urges everyone else to do schedule a colonoscopy as soon as possible. “The moment that you’re eligible to get tested, go do it, Johnson said. “Don’t wait another day. There’s no reason to put it off.” Not surprisingly, Sun agreed with Johnson’s take on getting screened as early as possible, even if there are no symptoms. “The most common symptom of colon cancer is no symptom,” Sun said. The lack of symptoms means many colon cancer victims don’t discover they have the disease until it has become a serious problem. Detected early, colon cancer has a high rate of recovery, but for patients like Johnson, late is better than never. “I guess I figured if it did happen to me,” he said, “there’s no reason it couldn’t happen to anyone else.”

Big victories require serious effort When you only look at the final scores from any sporting event, whether it’s baseball, basketball, hockey, football, golf, tennis, swimming or any other event, it’s sometimes hard to tell what happened during the game or competition where the winner was ultimately determined. We can look at recent games where the outcome was decided by one run, one basket, one goal, one stroke or one one-hundredth of a second. And then we can look at other final scores where it was an obvious blowout and a huge difference in the final score. Either way, at the end of the day and regardless of the difference in scoring, large or small, someone comes out with a win and someone else walks away with a loss. Now some may argue that it’s not how you win, a win is just a win. And others may say that it doesn’t matter how they lost, it will still go on their record as a loss. I believe we can learn from both the wins and the losses as well as the close games and matches that could have gone either way. Let’s look at the blowouts first. Was one team better prepared than the other? Were they outcoached? Maybe the talent and competencies were far greater and stronger for one opponent compared to the skill levels and ability of the other. Or perhaps, they were just outplayed on that given day. And if we look at the close ones, the events where the win was decided by the slightest of margins, what was the difference
there? Can we say the same things about being prepared, coaching and talent? Can we say that one team or individual showed up and just outplayed the other? Or is it something else? Could that something else be effort? When we look at the Michael Norton schedules for professional athletes it’s easy WINNING to see how a team or WORDS player can maybe lose a little focus or effort when they play so many games and travel so often to different cities. Maybe they can become physically and emotionally drained and the effort suffers from time to time or at least becomes compromised. But what about you and me, the nonprofessional athlete? We work day in and day out, some of us travel often for our job, most of us commute at some level and deal with traffic and other challenges, and others of us are caregivers and have our days filled with chores and tasks that completely consume us. Some days we feel like we have won the battle by a landslide and it was easy, and other days we feel like we just squeaked by with a win. And yes, there are those days where we feel like we got blown out.
The questions we have to ask ourselves are these, “Did I come ready to play today?” “Was I prepared as well as I could have been?” “Is there someone who could help me, maybe a coach or a mentor?” “Are there skills or competencies that I need to develop that could make my job or my role easier and help me to become more effective?” “Did I give it my very best effort?” “What is my competition doing just a little better than I am?” There is an old quote, “Talent without effort breeds mediocrity.” And just like professional athletes or athletes and artists at any level, if we have the skills and talent but don’t bring the effort, we will always be chasing our dreams and goals as we subject ourselves to mediocrity. It’s when we bring that extra effort that we begin to pursue our dreams and goals and stop chasing them. There is a champion in all of us. Some days we win, some days we lose, but it’s the champion’s attitude and effort that makes the difference in determining whether we win or lose. So how about you? Are you bringing that extra effort every day? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@ gmail.com, and when we recognize that we control whether we win or lose, it really will be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR When actions speak louder than words At the April 19 DCSD board of education meeting, I witnessed the debacle that unfolded (in spite of yeoman’s efforts by directors Lemieux, Ray and Vogel to resolve the issue) over the now infamous March 4 encounter between board directors and high officers Judith Reynolds, Meghann Silverthorn and Ponderosa High School student Grace Davis (organizer of the March 9 teacher turnover student protest). Subsequently, I also reviewed the audio of what clearly was an only thinly veiled attempt by adults Reynolds and Silverthorn during their meeting with Davis to exploit their positions of authority to intimidate this 16-year-old into reconsidering the planned demonstration. Thankfully, and admirably, she remained un-intimidated. Since then, I’ve been trying to find just the right words to express my consternation over this regrettable episode. When one considers the larger constellation of issues beleaguering this district, however, of which this, disturbing as it is, is only emblematic, words indeed seem insufficient to the task. See the following recent headlines regarding just a few of those issues: • “School board members face intimidation probe” • “Voucher program faces new challenges” • “Douglas County School District adds rifles for security staff” • “School district, state agree on repayment” • “ Teacher turnover in Douglas County School District rises above state average” • “Ponderosa High students demand explanation for departing teachers” The list goes on, as those who have followed the longer-term debacle know, and sadly, still seems endless. Clearly, no words are needed. Actions such as these speak — and compellingly so — louder than any words can. Sheldon Potter Highlands Ranch

World of distraction brings unwanted action I was reading an article about distracted driving when the phone rang. Tattered Cover was calling. The caller said that someone wanted a personalized copy of my book. Just as she was telling me the buyer’s name, Smitty barked because there was someone at the door. But I swear the caller said “Connie.” I thanked her and answered the door. It was the FedEx man. “I have a delivery for Mrs. Calabash.” The phone rang again. “There’s no one here by that name,” I said. The dog was barking, the phone was ringing, and someone who wanted to aerate my yard — “Half off, today only,” he said — was standing next to the FedEx man. I got it all sorted out and went to the Tattered Cover on Santa Fe, and signed one of my books, “To Connie. As Hemingway said, `There is no friend as loyal as a book.’” Later I heard that a woman named Bonnie came in, was handed the book, and said, “Who’s Connie?” Some of us are distracted to death by our
distractions. My little narrative had no such consequences. We found Mrs. Calabash, and I signed another book for Bonnie. It doesn’t always turn out that way with distractions. In 2014, 3,179 Craig Marshall Smith people were killed, and 431,000 were inQUIET in automobiles DESPERATION jured, because of distracted drivers. I see distracted drivers all the time. Mostly someone is on a hand held phone. Texting and driving is illegal in Colorado. So is littering. Both happen anyhow, and probably always will. Smith continues on Page 11

School board president outlines goals When I took on the role of board of education president, I was hopeful for the opportunity to encourage diverse voices in order to address issues within the Douglas County School District. Admittedly, the road is much more difMeghann ficult than I thought. Silverthorn However, I remain resolute in finding GUEST solutions, no matter the obstacles, for one COLUMN reason: Our students deserve the best education to prepare them for tomorrow. Our country’s future depends on them. We, the adults, must be an example to them. I know that our community, within
the school district and at large, is tired of the fighting and the negativity. It is an understatement to say the staff suffers under the tensions. They live and breathe the fallout. Dissatisfaction is high, students are protesting, and the amount of bickering is untenable. We must work for students and put aside political maneuvering. In ensuring our focus on moving forward, I want to express my goals to the community and follow up on my conversations with many concerned teachers, principals, students, and parents. • Time, money, and resources must be invested into the classrooms with students as the priority. • Guarantee that principals receive support that they need in their schools, with the autonomy to be able to evaluate their staff whom they observe every day. • Improve the culture of the school district so that principals, teachers, and staff believe that they are appreciated and
valued as professionals, and parents and students are respectful of those tasked with instructing students. • Seek ways to curtail the time spent on endeavors that take time away from classroom instruction, and trust teachers and principals who can best determine academic measures of success at their schools. • Inspire parents to invest in their students’ education through partnership with teachers to ensure the greatest classroom and academic impact. • Build upon our relationship with the community so that they expand their understanding of the exemplary education that we offer, and the need to maintain excellence. These goals will require a Douglas County Board of Education that wants to put the benefit of our students first. It is important that the board focuses on removing the obstructions to student progress and attracting and retaining staff to foster
academic achievement. Our teachers’ and principals’ work should be respected, while we work to facilitate a system where parents and teachers work together to provide the best education for kids. Unquestionably, the work ahead will need the engagement and support from our entire community. We must have honest, yet productive, conversations. I believe it can be done if we are willing and resolved to do so. I want to thank those individuals who have openly discussed these issues with me and entrusted me to find solutions. I will do my best to represent your concerns. I value our community’s commitment to education, and your contributions toward making the Douglas County School District the best it can be. Meghann Silverthorn is the president of the Douglas County School Board and a Parker resident.
Steps to follow when it’s time to downsize Many Douglas County residents have lived in the community for more than 20 years. They moved here when their families were young, sent their children to the excellent schools here in Douglas County and have enjoyed the wonderful youth sporting activities and community recreation centers. And they have remained in Douglas County because their home was big enough for hosting large family holiday celebrations. But there comes a time when we (yes, I am one of you!) look at 20-plus years of accumulated “stuff” and realize it’s time to downsize to a more manageable-sized home. And the task of downsizing seems so daunting that we further delay the move and keep accumulating even more “stuff.” But moving should leave you overjoyed, not overwhelmed! The first step is to create a plan that fits your lifestyle and future needs. Do research and consider such factors as your interests, health, financial situation, location of your family and friends and how you envision your future. Then narrow your decision down to several options that will suit your
vision of your future lifestyle. If you are very active and still on the go, you may want to investigate the 45-plus adult communities with single-family ranch homes. If you want this move to be your last, your best opLee A. McCue tion may be a CCRC (Continuing Care LIVING Retirement CommuAND AGING nity). You can move into an independent WELL living unit, but as your needs change you can remain in the same community and simply move to assisted living or skilled care. Many CCRCs now also have memory care units. The second step is to communicate your options with your family and friends, not to get their feedback but to inform them of what you are considering. See if they have any questions or concerns. Make it clear

the security officer’s space, retrieve an assault rifle and sprint back into the school before she can count to 30 at two counts per second, which is about the rate of fire of an assault rifle. She should also ask the slowest security officer in the district to sprint toward a classroom while she is also counting to 30. Mr. Payne would save no lives while the other security officer would minimize the loss of student lives by risking his or her own life with a much faster response time. Ms. Fagen, do the math.

Texting and driving isn’t much different than drinking and driving. I have seen drivers slow down and speed up, change lanes without signaling, and weave in their lanes. Texting or drunk? Maybe both. The National Traffic Highway Safety Administration reported 9,967 people were killed in the United States in alcohol-related crashes in 2014. I hear the same excuses from texters and drunks. “I need to change my behavior.” Maybe tomorrow. If you have been around the block like I have, you have heard the word “yet.” “I haven’t caused an accident.” Yet. There have been some real pips. One that stands out didn’t involve automobiles. It was the 2008 Chatsworth, California, train collision. A Union Pacific freight train and a Metrolink commuter train collided headon. The Metrolink’s train engineer was texting, and missed a signal. There were 25 deaths. We are warned all of the time, every-
where we go. “Don’t do this.” “Don’t do that.” There are warnings on just about everything. Kids were eating those laundry detergent pods. They now come with a warning. Many of us ignore warnings. Then you get a call from the police, and in the next 20 seconds your life changes forever. “Your daughter ...” We tend to seek our own levels of behavior, no matter what. Tomorrow or the next day, a friend or a celebrity will overdose. We all know better, but we just keep doing what we do. We keep doing what we do, and hope that we get lucky and stay lucky. In Minnesota in February, a suspected distracted driver’s car went airborne and landed on a 22-year-old woman’s car. Megan Goeltz, 22, was killed. She was raising a 3-year-old on her own, and working at a nursing home. How many lives were affected? The curb weight of my Subaru is about 3,800 pounds. I don’t know the math. What is 3,800 pounds times 65 mph? Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast. net
that this is your decision and you have reached it after careful deliberation. In some cases, a move can be more emotional for the adult children than it is for their parents! The third step is to surround yourself with qualified professionals who are familiar with downsizing moves. A real-estate agent who specializes in working with mature adults will have all the best-qualified professionals at their fingertips to help you. An agent with the Certified Senior Housing Professionals (CSHP) designation is a good example. Due to the rigorous requirement of 25 continuing-education courses in senior-related topics each year there are only 130 CSHPs in the entire United States. A real-estate broker can refer you to a senior placement specialist who is very knowledgeable about the various adult living communities in the area and will help you decide the best community option for you if that is the direction you choose to go. The fourth step is to thin out all that extra “stuff”. This is the step that most
people find extremely daunting. Depending on your timetable it is recommended you take one room in a specified time…week or month. You only need to focus on what you need and want to take with you…senior move managers will take care of the rest! They know experienced estate sales companies who will maximize the value of what you do not want to take with you. Or you can donate items to your favorite charity. Step 5 is to adjust to your new lifestyle after your move. Don’t ignore your emotional well-being which may have been overlooked in the hustle and bustle of the move. It is normal to experience some emotions that you had not expected, but it happens in all important life transitions. A well thought out plan and open communication goes a long way in easing you into your new home and community. Realtor Lee A. McCue is a Seniors Real Estate Specialist based in Centennial.

The next year she took a full-time position teaching kindergarten, which she did for 14 years. Heth graduates from Colorado State University with a double major in Spanish and International Studies later this month. She credits Gruber-Meier for exposing her to foreign language at a young age by incorporating Spanish words and phrases into her kindergarten lessons. “It helped me foster the love of Spanish enough to study abroad and major in it in college,” she said. “She’s just the best. I’m happy to have been a student of hers.” For the past 10 years, Gruber-Meier has been part of the district’s Reading Recovery program, where she does one-on-one reading and writing instruction with kindergarten through second grade students who are

Other nominees were Dr. Jack England of Plum Creek Medical and Todd Folkenberg of Castle Rock Adventist Hospital. New this year is the Small Business of the Year Award, which recognizes a business owner who has made outstanding contributions to the community through his or her involvement in community projects, organizational affiliations and business growth. Greg Boman, owner of The Emporium, a cluster of shops specializing in home decor, food, jewelry, clothing and antiques, won
the inaugural award. The Castle Rock Advocate Award acknowledged an outstanding individual who is either a government employee or an elected official within Douglas County. This year, the award was given posthumously to former Castle Rock Police Chief Tony Lane, who died Oct. 28, 2015. Lane served more than 45 years in law enforcement, the final 24 as Castle Rock’s police chief. He retired in 2011. Lane’s wife, Lynne, and children accepted the award. “I knew him as a very faithful, loving husband,” she said. “A man of prayer, a man of great integrity. I would like to thank
all those in the town who helped us in tremendous ways in the 28 years that we’ve been here…. The people of Castle Rock have been a tremendous support and an extremely kind and loving community.” Other awards given throughout the night included: Aaron Barrick, of Folkstad, Fazekas, Barrick & Patoile, PC, Citizen of the Year; Melanie Calhoun, of Re/Max Alliance-Calhoun Team, Ping Lee Jung Volunteer of the Year Award; and Joe Blakely, of Kaiser Permanente, Ambassador of the Year. At the event, John Manka, of 1 Stop Tire and Auto, took over as chairman of the board of directors.
struggling. She also does small-group inclassroom reading exercises with students of all reading levels. “The thing that fills my heart is the time that you’re working with a student and you can see the lightbulb come on, and a lot of times they say, ‘Oh, I love reading,’ ” GruberMeier said with a smile. “And when they come back years later and say, `Mrs. GruberMeier, I’m a really good reader now.’ ” Gruber-Meier, trying to hold back her emotions, said having the opportunity to help a person develop reading and writing skills is phenomenal. “I think about people who don’t have that skill and what effect that has on their life,” she said. “It’s a really big deal. It’s a wonderful gift for me to give to them.” But it’s not just in-school instruction for Gruber-Meier. She makes a point to have at least one home instruction with each of her one-on-one students. “She makes such connections with the families,” said South Ridge Elementary School Principal Erin Carlson. “She goes above and beyond with her home visits throughout the year to demonstrate teaching practices. It’s so powerful when you can
make that home-school connection.” That connection is important for GruberMeier. “I see kids at the grocery store, at the library, on the street — I have neighbors who are students here,” she said. “I love the community feel of that. I love the community here.” Others feel that community when they’re around her. “She helps everybody and she has such a positive, calm demeanor about her that’s so approachable,” Carlson said. “She’s so inspiring.” Heth said she felt that when she was a student at South Ridge. “Even after kindergarten, even though she wasn’t my teacher anymore, I could turn to her if I had any questions about anything,” she said. “She was kind of a beacon for the school.” Part of her decision to retire this school year stems from her disagreement with the Douglas County School District’s direction, Gruber-Meier said. “A really a big part of my decision is the whole evaluation process,” she said. “I think it’s really difficult for teachers. I’ve been
rated highly effective every time we’ve had this evaluation, but it’s an incredible timesink and takes away from time you could be working on great lesson plans. I get really stressed out about it and I just don’t need that in my life anymore.” Gruber-Meier has seen the school change from South Elementary to South Ridge Elementary. She has seen the students evolve from ranch kids wearing cowboy hats and big belt buckles to a more suburban community. But one constant brings her comfort: The kids themselves are still the same. “They still want to have fun. They still want to laugh,” she said. “They still want to learn regardless of what’s going on around them. And that’s really refreshing.” The beloved teacher will be missed terribly at the school and in the community, Carlson said. “She’s been such an integral part of the South Ridge community for over two decades,” Carlson said. “The positive impact she has made on the community, it’s going to remain and continue to last for years to come.”
petitions for Councilmembers Renee Valentine and Mark Heath were also initiated and are still in the circulation phase. Specific incidents cited in the petition to recall Donahue allege he had dramatically reduced allotted time for public comment; denied residents the opportunity to speak; and has shown deference
to out-of-town developers and “citizens who support his personal and political interests.” The petitioners seeking the recall of Donahue needed a minimum of 147 valid signatures. The town clerk validated 242 signatures on April 11. The recall election would give voters
in District 1 the option to retain or recall Donahue. The election would not include a candidate to replace him, if recalled. Instead, according to town charter, the replacement would be appointed by council. Donahue will continue to serve in office while the recall process takes place.

CAMPING TIPS
A
In Colorado, with its unexpected and bipolar weather patterns, the best thing campers can do is be prepared, said the camping team of Brittany Bossardt, Ryan Weber and Felicia Baca from Cabela’s outdoor sports and outfitter in Thornton.
few years ago, Jeff Fujiki, 34, was introduced to a 26-foot recreational vehicle — it was almost love at first sight. “I wouldn’t be into camping without my wife’s grandparents,” he said of the couple who sold him his RV. “But I have to say, buying a camper was the best thing I ever did.” Camping is nature’s way of telling people to relax, recharge their batteries and forget about the complexity of the world for a while. And residents and travelers from across the world trek to the Front Range and the state’s national forests to backpack, pitch a tent or park an RV up against the scenic rivers, creeks and canyons of the Rocky Mountains. Camp continues on Page 15
Their checklist includes: • Know the area where you are camping and its do’s and don’ts • Have maps with you • Familiarize yourself with fire restrictions and wildlife activity • Look up the weather but always pack for the opposite, just in case. “We always plan for fun,” the trio said in an email, “but always be prepared for things to go wrong.”

“It’s a magical world, like ‘Lord of the Rings’ style — scorned earth that’s black and rocky, but once you get into it, it’s green, lush and beautiful,” said Jesse Greaves Smith, adventure executive with Golden’s Colorado Adventure Point, an education facility owned by the Boy Scouts of America Denver Area Council. So sit back and roast a marshmallow over the fire. Dispersed car camping This form of camping, often referred to as tent camping, is where one drives to a campsite, campground or national forest to camp. In Colorado, national forests and campgrounds are popular for this style of camping, said Stephanie Fritz, a mom and avid camper. For her and her family of five, taking a two- to three-night trip into the mountains is their escape. Each summer, they take several camping trips to various spots around the state, such as Estes Park, Nederland, Rocky Mountain National Park, and the Idaho Springs and Fairplay areas. “We like to sort of not be around people, that feeling of being in nowhere,” said Fritz, of Arvada. “Everybody has a part — there’s packing, unpacking, learning how to pop up a tent, cooking and cleaning … When you’re out in a national forest it’s a different skill set.” For those starting out, she advises taking time to plan each trip: Pick out an ideal location as well as a backup option, research fire restrictions and drought concerns, make sure you have necessary equipment and clothing for all types of weather, and plan out meals. “It’s choosing to be homeless for a weekend,” Fritz said, laughing. “It simplifies things because you don’t have all the stuff around you.” Backpacking Others, like Greaves Smith, love to backpack into a wilderness area to camp. Taking with them only necessary supplies, shelter, clothing and food, this style of camping offers adventurers a place to be one with the nature around you.

“I like that it’s simple, less stuff to worry about,” he said. “Anything that comes up on the trip you use exactly what you have with you to solve it. And there’s a beautiful simplicity in all of it.” For him, camping provides advantages such as the exposure to nature and an increased awareness for the world. His favorite camping spots in Colorado are along Scott Gomer Creek and Lost Creek, which open from a forest into a scenic valley. “Camping is a way to get to know yourself by getting to know nature — it’s why it helps kids be calmer and better at school when you don’t have the distractions of life,” said Greaves Smith, who also hosts Boy Scouts camping trips. For this style, planning is its own skill set, he said. Campers should become familiar with the weather and plants around the area, know how to set up a safe campsite, understand the difference between camping in wet and dry seasons, and ensure they leave no trace behind. “It you’re going to hike in the woods, then take care of the environment,” he said. “For me, it’s more meaningful if you are out there taking care of the world than just hiking in the woods lost, essentially.” RV camping “We get to take our home with us,” said Fujiki, who likes to RV camp with his wife around the country. RV camping is popular with those who enjoy the comforts of home and the beauty of nature. Vehicles range in size and amenities, allowing campers to find one that fits their lifestyle and needs. “We still have our bedroom, our hot shower, a kitchen, and that allows us to save a lot of money,” he said. “It allows us to get out and see the parks, go on weekend trips to do it all and be relatively affordable.” Driving the 26-foot RV to different spots in California, Arizona, Nebraska and his favorite, Colorado, and events such as the motorcycle rally in Sturgis, South Dakota, is one of his favorite and most affordable things to do. Specifically, the family camps for a week every summer at Pueblo Reservoir. Being organized and using a little common sense is the best approach to ensuring a great trip, he said. And in Colorado, he said, there’s

nothing better to do. “There is so much to do in Colorado,” Fujiki, of Arvada, said. “There are so many great places to camp whether it’s
in an RV or in a tent. There is so much to see … I think everyone should really just get out and explore to see what Colorado has to offer.”

Living history comes to school
World War II veteran’s tale inspires student journalists By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Nathan Teigland doesn’t want his students learning history from a screen. When the Southeast Christian School history teacher learned a co-worker’s fatherin-law was a World War II veteran, Teigland leaped at the chance to bring his students face-to-face with living history. Lt. William Couch, a bombardier in the Air Corps (now the Air Force), recently addressed Teigland’s eighth-grade class, giving students a first-person account of his experiences during the war. Teigland assigned an essay to his students, hoping they would learn to become active in the community and contribute to, not just consume, a story. One of Teigland’s goals when he designed the assignment was for students at the Parker school to find their voice. Two students, Luke Arnold and Alyssa McCampbel, found a gift for journalism as well. McCampbel wrote a detailed account of Couch’s decision to enlist after the attack on Pearl Harbor: “At 21 years old, after the attack on Pearl Harbor, and many appealing advertisements, in January, 1942 William Couch decided to join the Air Corps and was accepted as aviation cadet on a B-17. He failed to make it to pilot training, and was assigned to Bombardier School instead. Arriving in England, he was assigned to the 349th squadron of the 100th bomb group. The first mission was “relatively easy.” Lt. Couch and the rest of his crew successfully hit their target (the submarine pens at St. Nazaire on the southwestern French coast). The plane engines began having problems and Lt. Glen (who was above Couch) decided to put the plane into a

Couch survived being taken prisoner by German troops in World War II. Courtesy photo nosedive heading straight down, but they successfully returned home without being attacked by the Germans. The next five missions for Couch’s crew were successful. “The seventh mission, however, wasn’t so easy.” Arnold focused on Couch’s experience crash-landing into the ocean and being taken captive: “In the morning of August 17, 1943, Couch and his crew were preparing to enter the heart of Nazi territory. After witnessing other bombers falling like flies from the sky and dealing with the “acrid” smell of gunfire, the group was able to hit
its target and headed to Northern Africa, a move with which Couch disagreed. The giant piece of machinery had experienced much damage; so much damage, in fact, that the ship was forced to hit water and attempt to float. The life rafts were deployed and the unharmed crew climbed aboard them. All they could do now is wait. “Couch and the rest of the men waited through the night and finally spotted their savior fighter plane. Unfortunately for the team, the plane had a swastika on the tail, meaning only one thing: the plane was German. The aircraft had arrived and
taken the men aboard. Couch recalled one of the crewmen with his thick German accent informing Couch, ‘For you, der wahr ist ofer.’” Teigland was proud of his students’ first entry into journalism, but just as pleased that the class appreciated their guest speaker. Teigland said he wanted students to understand how small stories fit into the bigger historical picture. It wasn’t until he drove Couch home that Teigland realized just how big the lesson was. On the drive, Couch mentioned a veteran that came to speak to his own eighthgrade class, a veteran of the Civil War.

Healey Continued from Page 2
The doctor warned that conceiving a child would be difficult and recommended artificial insemination. Eight months passed. Nothing. But on Valentine’s Day 1999, after the final insemination, Wendy was pregnant. They knew it was a girl and had chosen Morgan as a name. Like Jordan, then 9, and Colton, 6 — and Madison — all names ending in “n,” it seemed to fit. But meeting Regan changed that. “She really understood . . . and cared enough to come back and take that picture and write that note and leave it for me,” Wendy says. “She just made a huge impression.” The name, after all, ended in “n.” But more than anything, it just felt right. So, on Oct. 7, 1999, Wendy and Dennis named their new daughter Regan and reveled in her blessing. “She brought joy back in the family,” Wendy says. “We were all heartbroken, and she brought that back.” A few weeks passed. Then a neighbor’s son, Pat Lytle, a student at Highlands Ranch High School, and his girlfriend — who knew
When she was 18 years old, Regan Beisenherz-Rouse left this photograph on Madison Hightower’s headstone for her mother, Wendy, so that she’d still be able to see her every day. Courtesy photo the story of the name — decided to try to track down Regan during the school’s football game against Littleton High School. They walked over to the Littleton side and asked a cheerleader if she knew a girl named Regan who was on the dance team. “She’s my best friend,” the girl answered. “She’s sitting right there.” The teens approached Regan. “Do you know Wendy Hightower?” For a minute, Regan couldn’t place the name. “Well, she had her baby and she named her after you.” Regan was stunned.

“What do you say to that? It was the most lovely thing that had ever happened to me.” A few days after meeting Wendy in the cemetery, Regan — unable to forget Wendy’s sadness or her love and dedication to her daughter — had returned to Madison’s grave with her camera. She developed the film and printed the photograph in the school’s darkroom. She wrote the note on the back and placed the picture in a Ziploc bag, in case of rain. And then she drove back to the cemetery and left it on the headstone. A week later, she returned. The photograph was gone. “I really just wanted her to be happy . . . to heal,” Regan says. “It was really obvious she was still hurting.” After the football game, Regan visited Wendy at her home and met baby Regan. When Regan graduated later that school year, Wendy and Dennis — and little Regan — came to her graduation party. During the ensuing college years, Wendy and Regan wrote every now and then, but eventually lost touch. Neither, however, forgot the connection. Both believed there was a reason they had met. Maybe God had something to do with it. Maybe, Madison. • • • In February, Wendy and Dennis, now 52 and 56, and their daughter, Regan, 16, traveled from Austin, where they’d moved in 2001, for a volleyball tournament in Denver. Wendy and Regan Beisenherz-Rouse, now 34, married and pregnant with her first child, had found each other a few years back through Facebook. They’d messaged back and forth, but hadn’t seen each other in person. So they planned lunch at a restaurant in Littleton where the two Regans — referred to by Wendy as “little” Regan and “big” Regan — could finally meet. Little Regan was a bit nervous, wondering if conversation would come easily. It did. “She was super-easy to talk to,” little Regan says. “And super-sweet.” They peppered each other with questions. About little Regan’s volleyball and school and her older brother and sister. About big Regan’s baby due this month, her family, her photography business. “She’s just as wonderful as one of Wendy’s children would be, relaxed and confident in her own skin,” big Regan says. “She was just genuine.”
They discovered both had brothers in the music field in Austin. And both of their families are from Texas. They hugged when they left. And as they walked out, little Regan told her mom, “If you had to name me after somebody, I’m glad you picked her.” Little Regan has no doubt that Madison had something to do with that. “Madison is definitely the reason I’m Regan and not Morgan,” she says. She grew up understanding she had a sister in heaven. Madison was always part of the conversation and little Regan always made sure her presence was remembered. Wendy says, “Anytime anybody would ask me how many kids I had, and I said three” — because explaining Madison’s death made others uncomfortable — “she would always correct me and make sure I would include Madison.” For little Regan, it’s simple: “If Madison hadn’t of passed away, I most likely wouldn’t be here . . . and I can’t imagine what they went through losing her. But it makes me smile just thinking of her.” She also knows this: “Take nothing for granted. Tell the ones you love that you love them because you never know what will happen.” Wendy is certain the name was meant for her daughter. “It was a good feeling, the way it happened,” Wendy says. “I just remember how impactful and purposeful it felt.” Big Regan looks at Wendy and Dennis and little Regan and sees a shining example of how life should be lived, with love and compassion and hope. She’s grateful her instincts pushed her to be a part of their story: “When you come right down to it, you need to do what’s in your heart.” These days, just weeks away from the birth of her first child, big Regan finds profound meaning in all that has happened — and wishes for more goodness in everyday life. “If I could change anything,” she says, “I would change people’s days, just by being kind.” Like she did on a long-ago afternoon in a cemetery when a grieving mother touched her heart.

Florida transplant set to judge show 2 Pitchford is oil painter who teaches in Highlands Ranch
By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Sidney Ann Pitchford has been a Highlands Ranch resident for a couple of years following a move from Florida and is in the process of establishing connections in her new home’s artistic community. An experienced teacher and painter, she recently conducted one of Heritage Fine Arts Guild’s daylong Saturday workshops at Littleton First Presbyterian Church, where she placed special emphasis on color. She has an unusual technique for laying out her oil paint palette — with gradations of each color — before she begins to fill in areas on her canvas. She is especially careful about the greens used in a still life or landscape and tries to share that expertise with students. HFAG has invited her to jury its upcom-

ing spring show, opening May 8 at Bemis Library in Littleton — and to exhibit her demonstration painting from the workshop. The exhibit opens with a reception from 3 to 5 p.m. on May 8. Pitchford studied both music and art as she grew up, majoring in fine arts at the University of Evansville and Indiana State University, then migrated from the Midwest to Florida as a singer/songwriter, performing in showrooms across the country as well as on cruise ships. She next spent time teaching students of all ages and operating an art supply store. When she and her late husband moved to Colorado, she taught the artists who ran the Garage Gallery in Littleton. A move back to Florida was followed by a return to Colorado with a beloved sheepdog as companion in her Highlands Ranch home where she teaches private students.

First conceived in 2008, the partnership combines water supplies and system capacities to create a sustainable new water supply for the region. The WISE Partnership will benefit roughly 2 million people and it will bring a sustainable water supply to south metro communities. When water deliveries begin in early 2017, some of Colorado’s fastest-growing communities will be able to partially replace non-renewable groundwater. DRCOG’s Metro Vision awards are presented to individuals and programs who contribute outstanding efforts to the Denver region and its communities, and to DRCOG’s programs and activities.

Legend’s story one of change

Sabercat sprints between sports Castle View senior Mackin excels in soccer, track By Jim Benton jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Castle View senior Julie Mackin doesn’t have much spare time in the spring. Mackin is one of the state’s top soccer players for Castle View. She also has been a participant in the United States Under-18 national soccer team train-
ing camps, plays soccer for her Real Colorado team and participates on the Sabercats’ track team. So if she does have any spare time, what does she do? “Homework is pretty much all I can do right now in my free time, and hang out with friends,” she said. Mackin has been to six national training camps and was on the U.S. U-18 team that competed in Spain in February, playing defense. However, she is a high school forward and leads the Continental League with
10 goals and is third with 21 points. It’s sometimes hard to tell where Mackin — who is bound for Clemson University — will play on the soccer field but her versatility has helped her tactical knowledge. “In high school, I’m a forward,” Mackin said. “In club, I switch between forward and defender and on the national team I’m a defender. I like both. Some games I prefer playing up top and other games I prefer playing defense. “It does help playing
two positions because you pick up tendencies of what the outside back is going to do and you have a better chance of reading what they are supposed to do when you are attacking them and when they are attacking you. I learned the roles of each position, what runs to make and how to defend players better.” There is a baton in the Castle View trophy case with Mackin’s name on it because she was on the Sabercats’ 4x100-meter Mackin continues on Page 25

Kevin Boley has had a busy spring conducting interviews. Boley is the head basketball coach at Legend, but he’s also the athletic director who had to quiz and eventually hire head coaches for football, volleyball and swimming. Monte Thelen, the former Cherokee Trail head coach, was hired in early April to take over the Titans’ football program. Last week, Boley announced that Verlyn Rosenthal will assume the coaching reins of the volleyball program from Katie Winsor to become the second volleyball coach in school history. Another Cherokee Trail coach, boys swimming coach Kipp Meeks, was hired as Legend’s new girls swimming mentor. Jim Benton Rosenthal won OVERTIME three state championships and had a 66-match winning streak while coaching Colorado Springs Christian from 2002-06. He was head coach at Colorado Christian University for five seasons starting in 2010. He assumes the leadership of a Legend program that has made the state tournament the past two seasons and was ranked No. 1 in the state early during the 2015 campaign. However, the Titans will graduate five top players but return Kayleigh Thompson and Katie Turner. “I’m excited,” Rosenthal said. “I love coaching volleyball and this will be a real nice fit. The previous coach did a nice job in building the program and has some nice things in place. We will have to rely on some younger athletes next year.” Meeks is also excited about his new venture at Legend. “The girls program has a great deal of young talent and potential,” he said. “I hope to bring a fun atmosphere and instill a tremendous work ethic to be a successful program competing at the 5A level.” CHSAA issues weather warning Last season’s spring state playoffs were hampered by wet weather, so the Colorado High School Activities Association delivered a message to schools on what can be done when games or matches are postponed despite the forecast for sunny days this week. Dates to complete regular-season competition can’t be changed. When the playoffs start, there is flexibility to play on the next available day, according to the bylaws. Leagues need to make plans on how champions will be declared and the way the order of finish will be determined if some league games or matches can’t be completed. Local tennis player represents U.S. A call last week to talk with Colorado Athletic Club-Inverness club tennis pro Simona Bruetting of Highlands Ranch ended without a conversation. She was unavailable because she was playing tennis in Slovakia to prepare for the International Tennis Federation’s Young Seniors World Team Championships, scheduled May 1-6 in Umag, Croatia. Bruetting is the captain of the fourplayer USA women’s Young Cup team (40 and older). She is the 2015 Indoor Hard Court and Clay Court national champion in singles Benton continues on Page 25

relay team that finished fifth in last spring’s state track meet which, was the first time a Sabercats team placed in the state meet. “I’ve done both track and soccer all four years,” said Mackin, who was last spring’s Continental League long jump champion. “I do sprints, relays
Rock Canyon senior Trevor Howard doesn’t jog from left field into the dugout. He sprints. “I always do a sprint,” he said. “I feel like if I get lazy, I’ll get lazy at the plate.” Howard hasn’t been lazy and is having an outstanding season for the Jaguars. The three-year starter who hit .303 last season for the state champion Jaguars was leading the Continental League in hitting with a .605 batting average through 15 games. He also is among the league and state leaders with a .654 onbase percentage, .860 slugging percentage, 19 runs batted in and 16 runs scored. Howard is a 5-foot-11 preferred walk-on who will be attending Colorado School of Mines in Golden next season, and Rock Canyon coach Tyler Munro believes the Orediggers will be getting a good student and baseball player. “School of Mines lucked out,” said Munro. “He is a threeyear starter but he was a very straight-lined type of athlete. This year all of sudden he’s been able to use his hips even on defense. He’s stepped his game up to a completely different level. And he’s a 4.2 student.” A change in his approach elevated his batting average this season.
and long jump and also soccer in high school and club.” Mackin played less than 10 minutes in Castle View’s 2-0 loss to Grandview on April 28 because of an injured ankle. “I hurt my ankle earlier this season and it was fine,” she said. “Then I went to camp and we had a scrimmage the last day and I tweaked it again, so I’m just trying to get it better. We have four games (May 1-6) and we’re just trying to get me healthy for those games.”

“The biggest difference for me this year is that I have changed my mental approach,” he said. “In past years I was just thinking way too much up at the plate. I would think about mechanics of the swing, but this year I tried to calm down, clear my mind and just trust myself and stick to an approach.” His thinking ability, which helped him gain admission to Colorado Mines, might have hindered his ability at the plate. “It’s kind of a bad thing because I’m always trying to kind of analyze every little thing, especially at the plate,” he explained. “I just have to calm myself down and not really think too much up there.” In a 4-3 eight-inning win over Mountain Vista on April 27, Howard went 2-for-4. He drove in a run with a triple and started Rock Canyon’s two-run rally in the bottom of the eighth with a one-out single. “If I ever feel something starts to slip I always look out and find a point on the fence,” said Howard. “Against Vista, I looked right at that 370 (sign) and that made me clear my mind and focus myself. I was doing that on just about every at-bat between pitches. That’s part of my routine. Look out there, take some deep breaths.” Howard didn’t think too much about the possibly leading the league in hitting this season. “I honestly had no idea but I definitely felt I was going to improve over my past two years,” said Howard. “Definitely I feel more confident. That’s a big piece to it.”
Mackin has another U.S. national camp commitment in late May. “The roster is never set in stone,” Mackin said. “It’s always changing. It’s a performance-based program, so if you do well you get invited to the next camp. If you don’t do well, you don’t know if you are going to get called up.” In other words, Mackin once again won’t have much spare time before heading to Clemson, South Carolina, June 19 for summer school and training for the college soccer season.
