School growing, adding grade levels Castle Rock Christian aims for character, caring By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Two at a time, students at Castle Rock Christian Academy walked into the center of a circle Monday morning and made statements like, “I am a child of God” and “I am loved.” The circle of students and faculty responded as one: “Yes, you are.” The mindset behind the activity — called the “I am” circle — is that God has created everyone in his image, a belief that should be spoken. “As we speak it out, we start to

believe it,” said principal Torrence Jackson. “Too many times in life we believe lies about who we are, but God’s truth is that he has made you beautiful and you are loved by him.” This weekly Monday school assembly was about getting students to understand their identity. “We want to raise leaders,” Jackson said. “We want kids to get firm in their foundation of who they are.” Castle Rock Christian Academy — which changed its name this year from The Rock Christian Academy — is in its eighth school year and growing. It is the only Christian grade school in Castle Rock and one of five in

Douglas County. “As a Christian school, we believe God has called us to impact all of our community,” Jackson said. “We wanted our name to reflect that. We want to embody the heart of God for this community.” In addition to changing its name, the school added a sixthgrade class. The school plans to add seventh grade for 2016-17 and eighth grade the following year. This expansion will make the academy the third Christian school in the county offering preschool through eighth grade. There are no building expansions planned, but there are hopes of high school grades in Academy continues on Page 32

NEWS IN A HURRY A glimpse of the people in our community

BENJAMIN CHANG Photographer, traveler, Castle Rock native Photography is my passion I am 19 years old. I am half-Asian (Chinese-American) and I’ve lived in Castle Rock my entire life. My hobby and passion is photography. I specialize in portraiture and sports photography. However, I have dabbled in fine-art landscapes and other types of photography, including wildlife and lifestyle. I spent all of my high school career slacking off in classes. Instead, I spent my time shooting anything for my high school yearbook and burying my face in camera manuals and online forums. I never took classes. I spent all my time tinkering and trying to expand my knowledge, doing whatever I could to becoming better. Photography has been the only the thing that I can really lose myself in — it almost isn’t work — it’s my escape and therapy from all the chaotic nature that happens in every day life. Telling a story I am always interested in pursuing images that come with a story. I look at my own work not as photography but a visual medium for effective story telling. I come from a background of travel — I have been to five continents and 17 countries — and I am driven by culture and understanding the inner depths of those cultures. I find there is a beautiful richness in studying and documenting the lives of others. I am always curious about someone’s story. I joke that I am on the streets look-

Benjamin Chang hopes to connect cultures and tell stories through his photography. Photo by Elisha Knight ing at individuals, wondering what has happened in their lives and how those things shape who they are. Traveling to Chhulemu I am traveling to a remote village northeast of Nepal called Chhulemu. I am going to document the recovery of more rural areas that haven’t had the attention and focus from larger areas in the rebuilding process from the earthquakes last year. I have an interest in pursuing photojournalism and documentary filmmaking in college at University of Colorado at Boulder. To me, this trip is really putting my international knowledge and technical skills to work — to see if I can handle these types of assignments as a young professional. Seeing the world I had the opportunity to see the world at a young age. I never did tours, never the nice hotels or fancy meals — I got accustomed to living out of a backpack and eating street food with locals. To me, being able to immerse myself with others and grow as an individual is something I hold very close to my heart. I am very

curious — and I won’t say it’s easy being curious. It has always been rewarding to push those little boundaries here and there to get interesting and unique photos. Goals for the future I am hopefully planning to attend CU Boulder this coming fall and then, through that, expand my skills as a journalist in a developing media world. I hope to be able to travel around the world and document important and crucial cultures in a way that presents them with a sense of respect and dignity. My goal as a journalist, particularly a photojournalist, is to show the world a new reality and different ways of living. I want to connect people from many different cultures both in our neighborhoods and from across the world. I want to show those differences, yet show people something that makes them want to understand or question the world in a way they haven’t before. To me, that is very important.

Holding two elected seats may be problem for Silverthorn

“

School Board president says she would not vote on matters as state senator that would impact school district

By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com Douglas County School Board President Meghann Silverthorn said she hasn’t ruled out keeping her seat if she is elected to the District 4 state Senate post in November. But John Straayer, a political science professor at Colorado State University, said holding both seats would be problematic. “First, it’s simply illegal,” Straayer said. “Colorado Constitution article V, section 8 makes that clear. Second, even if it was legal, it would put her in a position that, in some manner, could be construed as a conflict of interest.” A spokeswoman for the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office also said the state constitution prevents a person from holding an elected legislative position and a local elected position at the same time. A person holding an elected office may run for a new post, but if the candidate wins, would be expected to resign from the first seat, she said. Silverthorn said she does not see a conflict of interest because she could recuse herself from votes that would affect the school district. “There is Colorado Senate rule on voting, 17(c), whereupon I could disclose a

personal or private interest in a matter up for a vote, and would not vote on it, which would be entered into the record as such,” Silverthorn said. “I would consult with multiple resources to ensure that any actual conflicts of interest were addressed in this manner. I disagree with the premise that merely holding both seats at once is, in and of itself, a conflict of interest.” Straayer disagreed with her premise, saying state lawmakers have the responsibility of seeing to the best policy interest of the state of Colorado. “As a school board member, her charge is to promote the best interests of one of 178 districts — so what would she do?” Staayer said. “We know, of course, that lawmakers do look out for the interests of the constituents within their local school districts, cities, counties and so on. But that’s not quite the same as taking two oaths of office — one to represent the entire state and another to represent just one part of it.” Silverthorn is among five candidates, all Republicans, for the Senate seat, which serves Castle Rock, Parker, Frank-

town, Larkspur and Castle Pines. The other hopefuls are Shawnda Dupree, Jess Loban, Benjamin Lyng and James Smallwood. The post has been occupied by Mark Scheffel, R-Parker, for the past eight years, but he is leaving because of term limits. At the March 19 county Republican assembly, the candidates will be vying to get on the ballot for the primary election, which is in June. The winner of the pri-

mary will be on the general election ballot in November. Silverthorn cited two local cases in which people have held two elected positions at once, but neither of those people served in the Legislature. James Geddes’ time as a University of Colorado regent overlapped with his service as a school board member, and Merlin Klotz, the Douglas County clerk and recorder, also serves on the Parker Water board.

DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS

Hoots and hollers reﬂect democracy in action More than 400 voters participated in March 1 Democratic caucus

VOICES FROM THE DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com

“This is my ﬁrst caucus. It was a really great experience to learn how it works and see everyone’s views.”

The Democratic caucus at Mountain Vista High School felt more like a town hall meeting from 150 years ago, said 23-year-old Matthew Berkman, a “big Bernie supporter.” A line that included families and teenagers snaked clear out the cafeteria door and up an adjacent stairway. Fluorescent lights gleamed overhead as the clamorous crowd grew inside the lunch room. Tables were combined for more space but, still, some had to stand. Instead of the 256 expected voters, the March 1 Highlands Ranch caucus of 12 Douglas County precincts numbered 404. It was one of 16 such gatherings around the county. Democratic votes across the county totaled 4,724, which exceeded any previous caucus, including the 4,604 votes in the 2008 presidential election year, said Mike Jones, chairman of the Douglas County Democrats. “When it’s an open presidential race, you get a huge number of people,” he said. “And a lot of it is just population growth – the county has grown a lot in the past eight years.” At Mountain Vista, supporters of Democratic presidential candidates Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton comingled at the school’s cafeteria tables. Clinton received 215 votes and Sanders 185 in a straw poll at the start of the caucus, which will determine the allocated delegates for each candidate at the March 16 county convention at Chaparral High School. Sanders, however, won the statewide caucus, garnering 59 percent of the vote. Some feel confident about both Democratic candidates, including 35-year-old

Bernie has been on the right side of the issues all along.” - Caucus secretary Lori Gerger “What’s most important is we absolutely have to change our system for campaign ﬁnancing. Now money can speak just as loud as a vote.” - Matthew Berkman, 23

Nine months pregnant, she said she was expecting to go into labor at any time, but still wanted to attend her first caucus. “There are two good options — one is more doable than the other,” she said. “I think Hillary will be listened to and work with Congress. Bernie is too angry to comprehend — but I like them both.” Caucus facilitator Bill Tepper, a retired business owner, led the Pledge of Allegiance and reviewed the rules of the two-hour process. A supporter of each presidential candidate gave a short speech that the crowd periodically interrupted with hoots and hollers.

“There was a lot of children — and one dog.” - Highlands Ranch resident Kathleen Tepper, about the turnout

REPUBLICAN CAUCUS

Some GOP voters frustrated by absence of presidential race Exclusion of the presidential race causes confusion at Republican caucus

VOICES FROM THE REPUBLICAN CAUCUS

By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com

“I’ve been really focused on the presidential race. As of right now, I’m going for Rubio.” - Caucus participant Amanda Winter

Many who showed up at the Republican caucus at Douglas County High School — one of about 20 held in the county — were surprised and disappointed to discover they would not be voting for a presidential nominee: Last August, the state GOP decided to cancel the straw poll for Republican presidential candidates. But even with numerous local and state races on the agenda — including two of the three Douglas County commissioner seats — many of the roughly 300 attendees at the March 1 event in Castle Rock remained focused on the presidential race. “I’m disappointed that I can’t cast my vote for presidential election — it makes me feel that I have been disenfranchised by the party,” said Sandy Shutt, who attended specifically to weigh in on the presidential contest. Some people left the caucus, which included two districts and 11 precincts, when they learned this information. The Douglas County Republicans did send emails to those who signed up for a contact list to inform and remind them that a presidental straw poll would not be included. County Republicans who want to receive correspondence can register at dcgop.org. “This is the first time we haven’t taken a straw poll,” said Tanne Blackburn, chairwoman of the Douglas County Republicans. She has received several complaints. “Had we taken the poll, it would have been binding,” she said. “The candidate we selected last election (former U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum) was not on the ballot anymore once we went to national convention.” With so many Republican candidates on the ballot this year, the state Republican party wanted to prevent a repeat of

“We need fresh faces and new voices in the party right now.” - Caucus participant Bob Martinez

First-time caucus participant Karl Biemel had hoped to show his support for presidential candidate Donald Trump. “I want to give my support for Trump because I’m a police officer and we need all the support we can get,” he said. “Blue lives matter.” The confusion about the exclusion of the presidential race and the combination of 11 voting precincts at one site created a general sense of confusion. “We are very aware that something needs to change,” Blakburn said. “How? I don’t know. But folks need to make sure that their voices are heard.” Some of the attendees also complained about having to trek across the school campus to find the caucus site. “It certainly might be chaos,” said David Huber, who is new to the caucus process. “I think that we need to try to get this whole thing organized so more people can come into this process.”

Reaching more people is what Stephanie deVries, caucus committee member for precinct 339, says the event is all about. “It’s an important process, and I think it’s something that needs to be brought to the forefront more,” she said. Castle Rock residents Amanda and Justin Winter, who have been focused on the presidential race, thought attending the caucus would allow them to learn more about the local elections. None of the Douglas County commissioner candidates were present at the Douglas County High School caucus. But residents spoke on behalf of Monica Wasden, who is running against Lora Thomas for District 3, and for Roger Partridge, the incumbent who is being challenged by Dave Gill for District 2.

“We’re having a heated race out there and it’s going to get more heated. We have lost both of the last two presidential races, not because of Hispanic or black votes, not religious or nonreligious votes. We lost it because of the Republican undervote. Enough people could not stand (Mitt) Romney that we have (President Barack) Obama. Enough people could not stand (John) McCain that we have Obama. If we lose again, don’t look outside this party. It’s the Republicans that lost the election. I will guarantee that again. Let’s come together and let’s win these elections.” - Bob Cox, director of Republican District 27 “I’m getting involved because I really worry about my grandchildren and your children and grandchildren and where we’re headed with this country.” - John Hoskinson, a Vietnam veteran

Representatives for Colorado State Senate candidates Ben Lyng, Tim Neville, Ryan Frazier and Meghann Silverthorn attended. “I think it’s a really important election and it’s our duty to be involved,” Amanda Winter said, while taking a break from reading campaign literature provided by local candidates. “If we’re not involved, we don’t have a voice.”

Voters then turned to their tables to discuss elections. There was continuous dialogue throughout the room — some stood to talk and others participated in side conversation. Each precinct — comprising 30 to 50 registered Democrats — elected two precinct leaders to a two-year term. They also elected delegates and an alternate to the county convention, which will have another preference poll to allocate delegates at the next level — the state convention on April 16. Precinct members voiced issues and resolutions to the party platform — a

list of values and actions that appeal to Democratic voters. In Precinct 224, one of the 12 at the caucus, voters brought up several topics, including campaign financing, the need for a Democratic seat on the Supreme Court and health care reform. “The area, right now, where I see the greatest disconnect and need,” said Patrick Verville, a Sanders supporter and registered nurse at Cherrelyn Healthcare Center in Littleton, “is in affordable health care.” Verville, who was wearing his lightblue scrubs, had never been to a caucus and called it “wonderful.” Heather Vondy, a Clinton supporter, agreed. The caucus, she said, is the beginning of a “very exciting election season.”

Parties urge move to presidential primary Last time Colorado held costly election was 2000 By Kristen Wyatt Associated Press Colorado Democrats and Republicans have tentatively agreed to push for changing the state’s system of choosing presidential candidates to a primary election, instead of a caucus. The agreement came after a raucous caucus night March 1 in which party faithful in both camps complained about the current system of thousands of precinct meetings to start choosing presidential candidates. Democratic caucuses across the state were filled to capacity, with some leaving rather than wait in long lines. Some Republicans were voting with their feet, too, angry that the precinct caucuses didn’t include a presidential straw poll. State GOP chairman Steve House told The Associated Press March 2 that he and the head of the state Democratic Party have agreed to push for a presidential primary vote in 2020 to allow more people to participate. “We’ve got to do something different to involve more people because it’s our country we’re talking about here,” House said. He said his Democratic counterpart, Rick Palacio, agreed. Some party power brokers say the current system of thousands of neighborhood precinct meetings facilitates neighborto-neighbor conversations and favors grassroots ideas over TV campaigns typical of the general election. But many average party members disagreed this week. “To me it’s very questionable,” said Doug Schuck, a Republican caucus-goer from Cherry Hills Village who wanted to vote for presidential candidate Donald Trump, only to find out the state party

would let the presidential decision be made by the 37 Coloradans chosen to attend the national GOP convention in August. “To not be able to cast a vote is disappointing. It means they’re only going to hear from a few people, the insiders they want to hear from,” Schuck said. Democrats had angry voters, too. Some caucuses were so packed that hundreds were turned away. A caucus in Fort Collins was so crowded that attendees took to a patch of trees outside to discuss the presidential race. “I felt it was a little difficult, in fact, to try to get everyone in at the same time, to ensure everyone got to speak and be heard,” said Toby Dattilo, 41, a Democrat attending her first-ever caucus meeting in Centennial. Anger stoked the talk of reviving a presidential preference primary. Colorado held presidential primaries in the 1992, 1996 and 2000 elections, then abandoned the idea as too expensive. The Legislature last year voted down a proposal to bring back primaries, an idea with an estimated price tag of $3 million to $4 million.(The political parties bear the cost of holding caucuses; the state would be responsible for running a primary election.) The Democrat who floated the primary idea says he’s going to try again. State Rep. Dominick Moreno said March 2 that he thinks widespread discontent with the previous day’s caucuses should spark lawmakers to take a closer look. “The caucuses were a hot mess,” Moreno said. “A primary, it obviously will cost money, but will also allow more people to participate in the process.” However, the caucus system has ardent fans among party activists. “To me, that is so important, to get your neighbors involved,” said state Rep. Perry Buck, a Greeley Republican and former chairwoman of the Colorado Federation of

Republican Women. And a proposed ballot measure to ask voters about a presidential primary was rejected by nonpartisan legislative staff because it also would have allowed unaffiliated voters to participate, making the proposal overbroad.

House said he wants to see lawmakers act on a primary proposal this year, rather than waiting until closer to the 2020 contest. “There’s a sense of urgency on the part of both parties to get something done this session,” House said.

Woman charged in death of Parker couple

Brian, Jacquie Lehner were known as friendly, adventurous By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com A police report says a woman was allegedly impaired by alcohol and was texting when she struck and killed a Parker couple on their motorcycle Feb. 27. Brian and Jacquie Lehner were ejected from their 2014 Harley Davidson motorcycle on Highway 83 just south of Franktown after a 1997 Honda Accord crossed into the oncoming lane around 1:30 p.m. Feb. 27. The driver of the Honda, Athina Munoz, 27, of Parker, was taken

into custody and charged with vehicular homicide while driving under the influence of alcohol, among other felony charges. She suffered serious injuries in the crash, according to the Colorado State Patrol. Munoz According to an arrest affidavit, Munoz told an officer she was driving home after visiting her best friend. She said she “looked down for two seconds at a text she had received and when she looked up she was on the wrong side of the road and hit a motorcycle,” the affidavit says. She admitted to drinking two glasses of wine and smoking

Parker residents Brian and Jacquie Lehner were killed Feb. 27 in a head-on collision with a driver who was allegedly intoxicated at the time of the crash. Courtesy photo marijuana roughly eight hours before the crash, according to the affidavit. The officer who interviewed Munoz described her as “distraught.”

Friends and family are mourning the loss of the Lehners, who have three adult sons. A funeral service was held March 4 at Ave Maria Catholic Parish. Brian Lehner, 58, and Jacquie

Lehner, 56, served as Scout leaders for several years. Jacquie Lehner was the eldest of six children. They were members of the Douglas County HOG motorcycle club. More than 50 riders from the group escorted the hearses that carried the bodies to the funeral service. Bob Nobles, a friend of the Lehners and owner of the Takoda Tavern in Parker, said the couple had a positive outlook on life. “They never had a bad thing to say about anything,” said Nobles, who rode in the procession from the couple’s house in Parker North. “They loved life and they were just genuine, good people.” The couple was riding on the same motorcycle on their way to Takoda Tavern when the accident occurred, Nobles said.

Students demand explanation for departing teachers Change.org petition started by Ponderosa students has nearly 1,500 signatures

By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com Students at Ponderosa High School in Parker say they are tired of losing their best teachers to other school districts and are demanding answers from Douglas County School District Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen about why this is happening. Students planned a March 9 protest at the school and have set up a change.org petition that had received nearly 1,500 signatures as of March 2. “Our district’s teachers are what keep our schools on track, and the high teacher turnover our district has been dealing with worries me,” said Ponderosa sophomore Grace Davis, a protest organizer. “It makes a lot of parents and students wonder what could possibly be going on with our district to make so many want to leave. There wasn’t really a big prompt to start the petition and protest. It was more of a piling of events and departing teachers.” School district spokeswoman Paula Hans said Fagen, who was not immediately available for comment, was plan-

ning to meet with students to hear their concerns and that “the administration is always open to meeting with students and teachers.” The district would not stop students from protesting on school grounds but, Hans said, “We want to make sure that whatever is done is done is a safe way.” “We’ve taken some strong steps toward resolving articulated student concerns, including having direct and lengthy conversations with the leader of the protests,” Douglas County Board of Education President Meghann Silverthorn said. “It’s always my goal to ensure that everyone has the right information on issues of concern. Although we had not heard about these concerns before the petition and protest were announced, school and district leadership took immediate steps to reach out to the leader and determine what those issues might be.” Silverthorn also said she was concerned about the safety of students who take part in the protest. “It is my hope that no one chooses to walk out of classrooms and or disrupt others’ learning environments,” Silverthorn said. “Our teachers and students work very hard to create a great educational environment, and I want that to be maximized every day.” Between the 2013-14 and 2014-15 school years, the district had a turnover rate among teachers of 16.7 percent,

according to the Colorado Department of Education. That is higher than some neighboring districts, including Cherry Creek (9.3 percent), Littleton: (8.3 percent) and Jefferson County (14.7 percent), but below the state average of 17.3 percent. Teacher turnover in the Douglas County district rose about 7 percentage points in a five-year period. Turnover from 2008-09 to 2009-2010 was 10.2 percent, according to CDE. Davis — a volleyball player for Ponderosa whose coach is among the teachers leaving at the end of this school year — said she felt the onus to tackle the issue fell on the underclassman who still have several more years invested into the school. “I feel like most upperclassmen understood what was happening but didn’t try to fix it because they were about to graduate anyway,” Davis said. “I believe that taking a stand, as an underclassman, is really going to open the window for teachers and staff to speak out about what’s driving some of them away without putting their jobs at risk.” Ponderosa volleyball coach and science teacher Rob Graham said he will be moving to Grandview High School in Aurora, within the Cherry Creek district, after the school year concludes in May. He is leaving, he said, because of policies put in place over the past five years such as the pay-band structured salary system and what he described as the excessive time burden placed on teachers having to upload evidence for evaluations. Teacher and principal evaluations are required in all Colorado school districts under 2010’s Senate Bill 191, also called the Educator Effectiveness Bill. Districts were allowed to adopt either the state’s teacher-evaluation program or create their own. DCSD is among six that designed its own. The evaluations are part of DCSD’s pay-for-performance program. Based on self-evaluations, meeting with administrator-level evaluators and other factors, each teacher is assigned a rating ranging from “highly effective” to “ineffective.” Pay increases are tied to those ratings and a marketbased pay scale. “The last five years have been really tough, but at some point you have to stand up for yourself,” Graham said. “When I told the district I was leaving, they offered to match the offer Cherry Creek gave me and give me a raise on top of it. I turned down their offer because this is not about the money.” According to Graham, many teachers in the district feel “Motivated Seller” the same way about the new initiatives started by district administration but are too afraid to speak out. He pointed out that when switching districts, only a teacher’s last five years of experience are often used to determine salary. This leaves many experienced teachers in a position of having to take significant pay cuts if they wish to switch to a new district. “We all talk to each other. The teachers all talk and I know this how many of them feel — not just teachers, but administrators, too,” Graham said. “I do have a job lined up. That’s why I wanted to step up and speak for my fellow teachers who can’t.” School board member David Ray said he was contacted by Davis and helped open lines of communication between students and the superintendet and is hopeful there might be common ground between students’ concerns and actions to remedy them. “I share in their frustration of having teachers whom they love and trust leaving the district because the culture and initiatives are taking away from time that should be focused on student learning,” Ray said. “The number of teachers who have left our system over the past few years has also saddened me. As a former principal in the district, there have been many teachers who I vested a great deal of time selecting and hiring. To see them seek employment in other districts, because they can no longer tolerate the negative conditions that have been imposed on them, has been very discouraging.” Davis agreed. “Education is an important factor to societal structure and tampering with it can cause many repercussions,” she said. “Our protest is one of them.”

Working through procrastination How is your procrastination list looking these days? You know the one I am talking about, that list of things that need to get done, your to-do list that is hanging on your refrigerator door or that you keep tucked away inside your heart and head. Yes, those lists, how are they looking these days? You see, we don’t really call them procrastination lists, do we? We call them “Action Items” or “To-do” lists, we call them hopes and dreams, and maybe even some of us refer to them as goals and objectives. Yet when it comes to actually getting things done, we may find ourselves just a little behind on our plan or so far behind that we start to lose interest in our hopes, dreams, plans and goals. If this feels like I am writing this just about you, please do not feel alone, because you are not. There seems to be a true fascination with procrastination. The question is, why? Some of these reasons may sound familiar or ring true for you, “Well maybe if I just wait for a few more days, things will resolve themselves.” Or, “Today

is only Thursday, I can get to this before Sunday and I’ll still be OK.” How about this one: “Maybe I was reaching too Michael Norton high or far; what made WINNING me think I WORDS could accomplish this?” There are hundreds more statements and excuses just like those I mention above. And again, the question is, why? Why do we make excuses, why do we justify or rationalize away our hopes and dreams so easily when we know we really want to do more, be more, have more, experience more? It comes down to commitment and prioritization. If we lack the 3 Ds — discipline, determination and drive — we will lack the commitment necessary to complete our tasks and

projects and to fulfill our dreams and goals. And if we allow competing priorities to usurp what is most important to us, we deny ourselves the opportunity to achieve what is most important to us. What are you willing to commit to and how will you prioritize it against everything else you have going on? And here’s the real deal about this: As much as I am referring to hopes and dreams and goals and objectives, it’s also about the little everyday chores, todos, and tasks. All of those little things we need to do each and every day that we postpone, put off or forget about. And then what happens, all of a sudden our Saturday and Sunday, which were intended for doing things for ourselves and our dreams and goals, become filled with the little things we should have been doing throughout the week. And you know what happens, right, that little voice inside our head starts getting in our ear, “Oh well, I guess I have to put off my hopes and dreams one more time because I have to go to the market, the dry cleaner, the pharmacy, I have to get the

dogs to the groomer, and I have to clean out my car.” Success can be as hard or as easy as we make it. Most of the people who have plenty of time to love life, enjoy life, excel in what they do, or just have time to chill out and relax are the people who don’t have a fascination with procrastination — instead they avoid procrastination like the plague. They are committed to what is important and they know how to prioritize their minutes and days to maximize results. So how about you? Is there always something else to do that keeps you from reaching your goals? Or are you committed to your success and wisely prioritizing your activities and events? Either way, I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@ gmail.com, and when we avoid our fascination with procrastination it really will be a better than good week.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR No-knock means no-knock Thanks to a previous town council, we have a “no-knock” ordinance giving citizens the option to control the nuisance of unwanted solicitations at our homes by certain entities. Unfortunately, political and religious organizations are exempt. Should Castle Rock citizens be able to control unwanted solicitations from political and religious organizations as well? Justification for the exemption seems to be based on opinions of socalled “legal authorities,” developed by their overzealous interpretation of the language in the 1st and 14th Amendments. They promote a flimsy “commercial versus non-commercial nature” argument, suggesting religious and political solicitations are non-commercial. However, buying and selling is commercial activity; selling is to influence or induce a purchase, to make something available for purchase. Just as products and services are sold, the political and religious solicitor is selling their viewpoints and ideas. In addition, their “free speech” argument is erroneous. Like all citizens, these so-called, non-commercial interests enjoy freedom of expression in public places, and through fliers, mailers, signs, internet, email, radio, TV, telephone, public events, and on private property with permission. Using the opinion of those “legal authorities” who argue the ability to control solicitations from political and religious organizations violates free speech, let’s consider solicitation on private property. Based on their argument, would political and religious organizations be exempt from prosecution for trespassing when soliciting on land posted with “No Trespassing” signs? Could those landowners be charged with violating free speech? Our homes are private property. Places to enjoy family and friends without unwanted solicitation. The current “no-knock” ordinance allows us to prohibit attempted intrusion by commercial solicitors. Should we also have the same choice to prohibit intrusion from political and religious solicitors? I encourage all citizens to email town council at TownCouncil@ CRgov.com to request action. Ken Perry Castle Rock

Nature’s Educators partners with Cherokee Ranch The two organizations will offer educational wildlife programs

By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Students from Arma Dei Academy in Highlands Ranch passed around a feather from a barred owl while on a field trip at Cherokee Ranch and Castle. The afternoon trip March 4 was the first time the new partnership between the ranch in Douglas County and Nature’s Educators played out. Nature’s Educators is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, volunteer-operated, educational wildlife organization. It is licensed by Colorado Parks and Wildlife, U.S. Fish and Wildlife, and, most recently, Douglas County to care for nonreleasable birds of prey and reptiles. These animal ambassadors are housed and cared for by the organization. It is the organization’s goal to help people understand the importance of conservation and preservation through their programs. The recent license by Douglas County allows Nature’s Educators to move from its previous home in Aurora to Cherokee Ranch and Castle in Sedalia. “It’s going to be a huge resource for the community,” said Devin Paszek, director of Nature’s Educators. “We’re still separate entities, but one giant program now.” The partnership means Nature’s Educators will offer field trips and outreach programs at Cherokee Ranch and Castle. “I’d love to see this new partnership be so integrated into Douglas County that the whole community knows Cherokee Ranch and Nature’s Educators go together,” Paszek said, adding that this can be a resource for schools, scouts, family groups and corporations. For the ranch, it means incorporating Nature’s Educators into its existing programming, including summer camps and hikes. In addition, weddings and private parties will have the option of having birds from Nature’s Educators present. “We’re looking at incorporating

raptors, reptiles and amphibians into anything that we’re doing here,” said Cynthia Edwards, manager of cultural and education for the ranch. “The Cherokee Ranch has a larger mission of land conservation, preservation and stewardship, so Nature’s Educators just naturally falls into that.”

It was ugly, and Banfield did nothing about it, except smile. Of course, my idea is ridiculous. And if I wanted a day off, why not just pitch a yurt in the back yard, and hunker down with the dog? But then I wouldn’t have much of a column, other than just reporting that all of these goings-on are personally repulsive. I have plenty of canvases and books and CDs, and don’t need to read or watch any of it. Right? The lead-up to the Super Bowl annoyed me too, and so did the aftermath, but it wasn’t mean-spirited.

marks, it nauseates me. One way or another, I am going to take some time off, and shut it all out. It won’t be easy, because it permeates everything I watch and read. If a candidate says, “It’s Monday,” the candidate’s opponent says, “It’s Tuesday in Japan.” Gov. John Hickenlooper has always refrained from mudslinging, and I appreciate that. Would that the other politicians did the same thing. What if I were a high school student witnessing the debates and the upcoming conventions — which are heightened lunacy? I know it would turn me off from politics. Earlier today as I write this, a frontrunner was put down rather harshly by someone in his own party who himself had been a presidential contender in 2012.

Coffee pods brew debate over waste Despite increased popularity, most pods can’t be recycled By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com For years, Amy DeValk and her family avoided using single-serving coffee pods. But eventually, convenience and variety won out. “We use coffee pods at home,” said DeValk, who lives in Highlands Ranch. “We resisted for a long time because of the environmental impact, but after using them for a week while on vacation, we were hooked. They are convenient, easy to use and you can have different varieties of drinks.” DeValk isn’t the only one caught up in the coffee pod fad: More than a quarter of American households — up from 15 percent in 2014 — now have a single-serve coffee brewer, according to a 2015 survey by the National Coffee Association. In fact, in 2013, industry leader Keurig Green Mountain produced 8.3 billion K-Cups — enough to circle the Earth 10½ times, a March 2015 article in The Atlantic magazine said. Many coffee drinkers want to enjoy their favorite beverage quickly and in an environmentally responsible way. But coffee pod users generally meet only half that goal: Most coffee pods are not recyclable because of the combination of plastics, aluminum and coffee grounds that cannot be separated. As more people become aware of the environmental impact, an outcry against their use is growing, along with a push to make them more easily recyclable. In February, the German city of Hamburg banned the use of pods in government buildings because of their environmental impact. “The capsules can’t be recycled easily because they are often made of a mixture of plastic and aluminum,” Jan Dube from the Hamburg Department of the Environment and Energy told the BBC in February, following the decision to ban pods. “It’s six grams of coffee in three grams of packaging. We in Hamburg thought that these shouldn’t be bought with taxpayers’ money.” Waste produced by pods has prompted the #killthekcup campaign on social media to end the use of nonrecyclable pods. Enviormental concerns haven’t stopped pods from dominating the consumer marketplace. Maian Tran, business development manager of Denver-based Marley Coffee, said single-use pods are now the largest part of its business. “We started with just the traditional ground and whole bean bags when we launched the company in 2009,” Tran said. “But when single-serve usage started to pick up, we launched our capsules around 2013. And now, they’re our top sellers.” Keurig first launched in 1998. According to research from international marketing firm Mintel, U.S. consumers bought $3.1 billion worth of coffee pods in 2013 — up from $132 million in 2008. “Green Mountain has had the corner on that for the longest time — partially through patents and stuff like that,” Denver-based Coda Coffee founder Tommy Thwaites said. “When that patent ran out, all of these other companies kind of came up with their own way to do it. So it opened the floodgates up to competition and really lowered the barriers to entry in that market.” Green Mountain’s patent for the K-Cup expired in September 2012. Going green Now, smaller companies such as Coda can tailor their pods to meet customer needs, such as making a recyclable pod. “The amount of garbage produced by those single-use pods is astronomical,”

PODS BY THE NUMBERS

Thwaites said. “We didn’t even really want to get into the market until there was at minimum a recyclable — The year option, and Green Mountain’s now we are patent for the K-Cup looking at fully expired compostable options.” — Number of Mary Martin times the coffee pods of Parker said produced in 2013 she stopped uscould circle the Earth ing single-cup — Percent of pods because Americans who drink of the environa daily cup of coffee mental impact. “I’m a big — Average coffee snob number of cups of and used to coffee Americans use coffee pods drink each day until I learned how bad they — The year are for the Keurig first launched environment,” Martin said. Source: National “I went back Coffee Association, to grinding The Atlantic my own beans and taking that little bit of extra time to brew a fresh pot of coffee in the morning, or whenever I or my husband needs it. The aroma of freshly ground coffee beans, and knowing that we weren’t adding to landfills, quickly weaned me off my need for the instant gratification of coffee pods.” Denver-based Boyer’s Coffee said demand from customers led it to develop a recyclable pod that would satisfy the market demand but not join in the growing amount of landfill waste. “The cost of producing our single-serve recyclable cups and biodegradable filter isn’t cheap,” said Julie Byerlein, marketing director for Boyer’s Coffee. “But it’s about providing a solution to our customers that demand a recyclable alternative without cutting into the convenience and customizability of the single-serve.” Marley Coffee uses recyclable pods called EcoCups. “We were one of the first premium brands to launch EcoCup in the retail market,” Tran said. “Most other cups are made of No. 7 plastic, which is not recyclable in most municipalities, so people throw the whole cup away, and that’s a ton of waste.” The EcoCup is made of an alternative

Traditionalists hold steady Some still prefer the old way of brewing coffee Despite the ease and convenience of single-serve pods, for some coffee drinkers a traditional brew is still the way to go. “Bagged coffees still remain the most popular, and we attribute this to the fact that many households have both pod machines and traditional brewers,” said Julie Byerlein, marketing director for Boyer’s Coffee. According to the National Coffee Association, 59 percent of Americans drink a daily cup of coffee. And, on average, Americans drink 1.85 cups of coffee per day. In a September 2015 blog post about the rise of coffee pod use, marketing professor Eric Anderson at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management pointed out that, in 2002, the average coffee maker cost $35. By 2013, that

figure had risen to about $90. The lowest-priced Keurig machine listed on their website is the mini version for $79.99. In addition, consumers 40 and older are more likely than their younger counterparts to drink their coffee at home, according to the coffee association. “Most folks my age don’t give any grief,” said Denise Gliwa, who lives in Denver’s Cherry Creek area. “They think the young folks are crazy for spending the money on those pods.” Chef Mick Rosacci owns and operates Tony’s Market and Tony Rosacci Catering, which has locations in Castle Pines, south Jefferson County, Centennial and Denver. He doesn’t use pods and calls them a waste of packaging and money. “In a way, it’s indicative of much of modern society,” Rosacci said. “We depend on technology more than ourselves and we are losing touch with the simplest things in life — in this case our food.”

plastic that is recyclable. After brewing the coffee, you recycle the cup, and you can compost the coffee and woven filter. The only waste is the tiny foil lid. In addition to the reduction of waste, 1 cent of each EcoCup goes to fund Marley’s sustainability initiative, the Water Wise Coffee Project, which helps coffee producers in Ethiopia tackle the waste generated by wet mills and clean up local rivers. Keurig says it hopes all of its pods will be recyclable by 2020.

By then, some consumers may have already moved on. “It does concern me a little that they are not able to be recycled. It seems like a lot more trouble or waste than other means of brewing coffee even though they are meant for convenience,” said Melissa Casaretto of Parker. “I do see the appeal, but for me, I would prefer to use a French press or Vietnamese coffee filter set if I just wanted to brew coffee in small quantities or individually.”

#FreeKesha and standing alongside women A guiding principle of my life comes from Scottish author Ian MacLaren — “Be kind; everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.” Pop recording artist Kesha’s fight is among the hardest. A Feb. 19 court decision has made her Clarke Reader battle the epicenter of an intense discusLINER sion about disregardNOTES ing women’s claims against their abusers. For those unfamiliar with the singer, Kesha is the voice behind some of this decade’s biggest pop smashes, including “Tik Tok” and “Die Young.” She records under Sony and Kemosabe, the record label created and run by Dr. Luke, the stage name of songwriter and producer Lukasz Gottwald. Here’s a primer for the situation between the 28-year-old musician and producer: In 2014, Kesha alleged in a lawsuit Dr. Luke drugged and raped her when she was 18 years old and continued to sexually and verbally abuse her throughout their work relationship. In her suit against the producer, she included Sony as a co-defendant. Dr. Luke and Sony countersued, alleging Kesha’s claims were false and a move by the singer to renegotiate her contract. As a result, she has been unable to record any music or tour until the situation is resolved. She doesn’t, understandably, want to work with someone she says has been abusing her for years. Time is fleeting in the music industry. And silence from an artist for too long can lead to loss of interest from fans, along with serious financial losses. Aware of this fact, Kesha filed a preliminary injunction in February 2015 so she could record outside of her contract with Sony and Kemosabe. But on Feb. 19, New York Supreme Court Judge Shirley Kornreich ruled against Kesha, saying the injunction was an effort to “decimate a contract that was heavily negotiated and typical for the industry.” That means any attempts to make music must be with Dr. Luke and Sony. As an onlooker, I can only imagine the horror Kesha must have felt at the decision. As a man with many strong and vibrant women in my life who inspire me daily, I felt sickened to my stomach. The judge and Sony say Kesha has been free to record without Dr. Luke, a statement Kesha’s lawyer denies, stating Sony wouldn’t support any music she recorded without Dr. Luke, according to reporting by Buzzfeed. Since the ruling, a #FreeKesha movement has taken over social media, with such major artists as Adele and Taylor Swift lending their support. Accepting the word of accused abus-

ers over their victims isn’t restricted to the music or arts worlds only. But it is extraordinarily disheartening to see the American legal system fail another rape and abuse victim who has the courage to come forward. According to statistics from the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network, only a 16.3 percent chance exists that a reported rapist will end up in prison. Once unreported rapes are factored in, which account for 61 percent of rapes and sexual assaults, only about 6 percent of rapists — 1 out of 16 — will ever spend a day in jail. In a Feb. 19 article from the women’s activist blog Jezebel, author Madeleine Davies wrote, “It’s likely that ‘commercially reasonable’ will almost always beat out ‘ethically reasonable’ and is certain to beat ‘morally reasonable.’ Our courts and culture have a hard enough time believing women’s accusations of sexual assault in the most clearcut of circumstances, so what chance do we have at legal, emotional, and physical protection when details are contested and a corporation stands to lose millions? When a woman as powerful and high status as Kesha can’t win, the rest of us stand even less of a chance.” Whether you like Kesha’s music or not, or even know who she is, this judge’s ruling should be troubling to everyone. We all have mothers, sisters, aunts, cousins and friends who are women. Most of the important women in my life have shared stories about being harassed, having sex used as a bargaining chip against them or being made to feel unsafe because they’re a woman. According to the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network statistics, one of every six American women has been the victim of an attempted or completed rape in her lifetime For the women in our lives, and all those yet to come, we must unflaggingly stand behind women when they speak about abuse and unfair treatment. We need to support organizations like the Athena Project, a Denver-based nonprofit that works to bring more opportunities to women in all artistic areas. We need to not only listen to victims, but also make sure they are heard and their abusers are held responsible for their actions. Kesha said this in a statement released on Feb. 24: “I think about young girls today — I don’t want my future daughter — or your daughter — or any person to be afraid that they will be punished if they speak out about being abused, especially if their abuser is in a position of power.” Kesha’s voice — and so many others’ — must be heard. Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week. A community editor with Colorado Community Media, he stands with Kesha. Check out his music blog at calmacil20.blogspot. com. And share your favorite Kesha song at creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com.

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK Selection: The 1975’s “ I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it,” released on Interscope records. Review: The sophomore album from The 1975 is an early contender for most ridiculous album title of the year, but it’s also the year’s most dynamic pop record so far. The band hits ‘80s pop, acoustic singer-songwriter and shoegaze all on one album, and it manages to hold

together, thanks to the craft of every song. Favorite song: “Paris” The real reason people write songs: “I got my pen and thought that I’d write A melody and line for you tonight. I think that’s how I make things feel alright.” -from the song “Nana”

Ladies spread sunshine in their wake Wind Crest Women’s Club uses creativity to build community outreach

Jeanne Hoskins shows off hand-knit baby caps. “These are especially nice for the little girls,” she said. “And the Broncos colors are nice for the little boys.” Photos by Alex DeWind

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com Last year, Wind Crest Women’s Club knit 262 caps for newborns at Littleton Adventist Hospital and 312 chemotherapy caps for Children’s Hospital Colorado in Denver. They used the leftover yarn to crochet scarves for the Denver Rescue Mission. No doubt about it, the club is living its goal to help others. “Our purpose originally was to do things for friends in the community,” club treasurer Mary Ellen Patrick said. “Now it’s turned into an outreach program.” The Women’s Club started in 2008 as a social meetup and creative outlet for residents at Wind Crest, a retirement community near Santa Fe Drive and C-470. Founder Grace Breffle, who died last year, had a closetful of arts and crafts, club members say. “She was very creative in making something out of nothing,” Liz Yount said. About 30 women ages 66 to 98 meet every Monday for an hour-and-a-half in Wind Crest’s Town Center game room. They make food-tray favors for residents in Mill Vista, a nearby memory care unit. They design colorful vests and delicate necklaces for one another. They knit and sew. They collect aluminum tabs to exchange for money used for donations. And they create “Welcome” bookmarks for new residents. Four club members spend weekly meetings sorting through used greeting cards. They recycle the scraps into new cards — similar to the style of those at

Hallmark or Papyrus — that sell for just $1. “My granddaughter can’t wait to get a card from Wind Crest,” said Grace Stanton, who’s been in the Wind Crest Women’s Club for two years. Cards are the money-maker, the women say: Last week they sold 30 in one day. They also host a fall bake sale and sell their creations at Wind Crest’s annual Mini-Mall. All proceeds go toward local scholarships, libraries and a staff-appreciation fund that is split between Wind Crest employees. Some say the company is the best part of the Women’s Club. Others say it’s the satisfaction of helping others. “We are friends,” Donna LoDico said. “And we are a group that tries to bring some sunshine to other people.”

Mary Ellen Patrick shows a fellow member’s handmade necklace. The women’s creations are for the yearly Wind Crest Mini-Mall, a crafts show held at Wind Crest in the fall.

Best Buddies Bakery and Cafe opened in the Emporium last month. Photos by Shanna Fortier

Cafe Continued from Page 1

developmental disabilities learning how to bake cookies in a private kitchen. Soon, their cookies were selling at local churches and Wellspring’s first business enterprise, Best Buddies Bakery, was underway. The biggest customers for Best Buddies Bakery are Tony’s Market, Castle Rock Adventist Hospital and Regis Jesuit High School. And although the wholesale business was booming, bakery participants had bigger dreams. “We wanted people to be able to see what we make,” Jones said. “But we also wanted people to be served by our participants — have our participants act as hosts and waitresses and busers.” That’s when the Bomans came into the picture. Greg and Becky Boman offered a wall in The Emporium — a cluster of shops specializing in home decor, food, jewelry, clothing and antiques — for Wellspring to sell ceramics and woodworking that participants made. That wall soon turned into an entire cafe, when Becky Boman closed down her tea room, which she said wasn’t being used to its fullest potential. “It soft of evolved into this way that the space could be utilized and impact another community,” Becky Boman said. “And what excited me was it gave a voice to a kind of silent community. It gave them a chance to be front and center and have fun with their day. And we’re just really excited to have them here.” The Bomans rent the space for the cafe to Wellspring for $1 a year. “If we had to pay rent for a place like this, it would be very difficult to break even,” Jones said. “So now, we have this opportunity where we don’t have that huge overhead to be successful. We’re extremely grateful to them.” Wellspring serves adults with disabilities including cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, autism and several unspecified syndromes.

Wellspring staff Melody Kearney assists Best Buddies Bakery participant Amy Brack with a customer order at the program’s new cafe in The Emporium. “What a blessing Wellspring is to parents — these parents, they worry about their kids’ future,” Jones said, adding that participants age out of the school system at 21. “This gives them an opportunity to be in a safe environment, where they’re growing and learning new things.” One of those participants in Beth Hohenstein, 31, who has been involved in the program for the past five years. “If I wasn’t at Wellspring, then I’d be sitting at home, watching TV and doing nothing and being bored,” said Hohenstein, who enjoys working as a server in the Best Buddies Bakery and Cafe. A newer program participant, Mary Scheck, 18, said that being in the program and working in the cafe has allowed her to meet lots of new friends. “She was someone who was homeschooled and didn’t have a lot of chance for social interaction,” Jones said of Scheck. “So, coming to Wellspring has really been wonderful for her to get that opportunity.” The goal of Wellspring, Jones said, is to empower the lives of its participants. “We want to give them a chance to do something that they would normally not be able to do, to do it at their pace, and to succeed and

feel that sense of accomplishment,” Jones said. Participants are not only working in the cafe, they are also attending class twice a week with program manager Paul Gullain for training on how to be a server, how to be a host, what to say to customers and what not to say to customers. The training, Jones said, is repetitious to ensure success. And the cafe is on the road to success, with lunch service filling up more and more each day. “People know when they’re coming in that we move a little slower, but that’s OK,” Jones said. “People are OK with that.” One customer who keeps coming back is Roberta Taylor, who walked into the cafe on opening day. She loves the menu, which changes daily. “I come back because the food is so delicious and the service is wonderful,” she said, adding that she would love it if the chicken salad croissant made its way back on the menu. But the cafe and Wellspring are about so much more than the food they serve three days a week. “It’s really about empowering the participants,” Jones said, “and giving them an opportunity to live a very full life.”

Marketplace DOES ANYONE KNOW THIS MAN?

My name is Sherry and I live in Tennessee. I am reaching out to the people of Colorado for help in finding my dearest friend, STEVEN (STEVE) EARL PERMENTER. He is 5”11, has brown eyes and dark brown hair. He was last seen wearing a full beard. Birth date:11-17-1960. The pictures attached are older photos. Steve is 55 years old now. His last known whereabouts were in the Brighton and Westminster areas of Colorado between April and July of 2015. Steve deserves to know that he is not alone in this world and that there is someone that loves him unconditionally. Any information will be greatly appreciated. Please text or call 931-305-3959. I work during the day so leave a message if no answer and I will return your call. Steve, I know you said this would happen. It’s been a long time coming. You also said to make sure that I found you because you didn’t want to miss it. It’s been a long journey but I have found you in Colorado; just don’t know exactly where. I need some help. Please contact me! Forever yours. Love, Sherry

Misc. Notices Historical Castle Rock garage available for free to interested parties willing to incur all costs associated with its relocation. Current owners hope to build a new 3 car garage sometime this year in place of their older 20 x 20 garage which may have some historical value. We believe the existing garage was built between 1929 and 1936. The garage is not entirely in its original form. It has been painted, has a new roof and the original accordion push style door was replaced with a single electric door. See Photos below. Parties interested in relocating the garage should email csugrad75@gmail.com no later than March 15th.

Lineage Societies After you have identiﬁed ancestors and documented their lives — including some with deeds you never imagined — it’s time to preserve that research. One way to do that is to join a lineage society. There are a wide range of societies, from those that recognize an ancestor’s military service in the American Revolution, War of 1812, or the Civil War, to societies for the descendants of early American witches or pirates. Come and learn if there is a society that might welcome you as a member. Led by Bev Nelson, Columbine Genealogical and Historical Society member, program is at 1 p.m. Tuesday, March 15, at Lutheran Church of the Holy Spirit, 6400 S. University Blvd., Centennial.

Swimmers take honors for prep performances By Jim Benton jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com There’s a friendly sisterhood among girls high school swimmers, no matter if they attend different schools or swim on separate club teams. Brooke Stenstrom of Valor Christian and Abigail Kochevar of Rock Canyon swim for different high schools and club teams, but the two seniors are the 2016 Colorado Community Media South Metro Girls Swimmers of the Year for their high school performances. Stenstrom is heading to swim at Stanford and Kochevar for the University of Wisconsin, so the next four years won’t be much different from the past four, where they might exchange hugs in the pool despite swimming on different teams. “She’s one of my best friends,” Stenstrom said. “With Abby we got real close, especially this fall. We get to go and compete against each other for the next four years. I’m going to miss her, but I’m going to be seeing her.”

Stenstrom swam with 4A Valor while Kochevar competed at the 5A level. “Swimming is a community where you know a lot of people,” Stenstrom said. “We might be on different clubs, we might be competing against each other, but you are competing against your best friends. Most of my friends compete in 5A and it would have been awesome to race against them, but there’s a fantastic group of girls in 4A, and I was totally happy where I was.” Stenstrom won three events on Feb. 13 at the 4A state championships in Thornton. She won the 100 freestyle in 50.63, set a state record in the 50 freestyle with a time of 23.22 and won on Valor Christian’s 200 medley relay team with Raili Carter, Brook Landt and Madison Hoehn, which set a 4A record of 1:45.31. Valor won the 4A state championship, and Stenstrom also was on the 400 freestyle relay team, which was second. “It was a fun way to end my high school career, being able to share the experiences with all the girls,” she said. “It was a fun day at the state meet and the relay title was so fun to share and the team title later

Rock Canyon senior Abigail Kochevar won two Class 5A individual state titles in February. File photo was awesome.” Stenstrom will leave Valor with five individual state titles (three in the 50 free and two in the 100 free) and a share of one relay title. Kochevar won her third consecutive 100-yard backstroke title Feb. 13 at the Edora Pool Ice Center, but it was her victory in the 50 freestyle that was special. In the past three seasons she has finished third, third and second in the race, but finally won with a time of 23.29 after qualifying with the third fastest time. “The 50 meant the most to me,” Kochevar said. “I could never win the 50. Four wins is nice.”

Kochevar captured two individual Class 5A state titles, winning the 50 freestyle for the first time and capturing her third straight 100 backstroke title. She also swam on two relay teams that did not win, as Rock Canyon wound up fifth in the team standings. She holds three 100 backstroke state titles and the championship in the 50 freestyle. “It was a good season,” Kochevar said. “The freestyle was a little better and the backstroke wasn’t as good this season. It might have been because I was more focused on the freestyle. I really wanted to win both really bad.”

Ponderosa’s Schultz honored after string of achievements By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Cohlton “Cohl” Schultz, a 220-pound Ponderosa freshman, didn’t have any great expectations, but his growth and development in his first season of high wrestling is worth writing about. Schultz won the state championship and completed a 47-1 season, with his only loss coming in the Dec. 12 finals of the Ironman Tournament of Champions to Matt Stencel, a senior from Clay High School in the Toledo suburb of Oregon, Ohio, who was ranked third in the country. “I didn’t really have any expectations,” said Schultz. “I was going out and wrestling all my matches the same.” Schultz has been named the Colorado Community Media South Metro Wrestler of the Year. He was picked over three other worthy candidates: Castle View’s 106-pound state champion Malik Heinselman; Chaparral’s Dawson Cranmer, the 170-pound state title winner; and Mountain Vista’s 195-pound champion Trenton Schultz, who is Cohl’s older brother. It’s how Cohl Schultz won the state championship that was impressive. He had three pins to win the Region 2 title and four consecutive pins in the state tournament. And all seven pins came in

the first period, his longest match coming in the championship match of the state tourney, when it took him 1:59 to pin Cherokee Trail’s Max Gonzales. “I was just going out, wrestling, seeing whatever was opening up and taking advantage,” explained Schultz. “I was lucky enough to go for it right away. “Being a freshman there was a big jump as far as the whole team aspect this season. I hadn’t been used to that before. I end up liking it. It gave me a better outlook and helped everyone else too.” Ponderosa coach Corey McNellis

claims there was nothing lucky about Schultz’s performance this season. “Not only did he pin his way through the regionals and state, he pinned everyone in the first period,” he said. “Cohlton is an absolute pleasure to coach. He is the number one prospect of freshman wrestling in the country, according to FloWrestling. “He has already accomplished so much at the age of 15, when all is said and done, when he graduates high school, I think he will be remembered as the best Colorado high school wrestler to ever compete.”

March Madness, Colorado high school style, started March 1 and 2 for Class 5A basketball teams. Sweet 16 games were held in the high school gyms, and the vibes from the crowds were superior and much different from the Great Eight games at the Denver Coliseum. The coliseum, 4600 Humboldt St., is a good venue once you trek around and over the bumps, which look like crevices, in the parking lot. Still, the atmosphere and excitement seemed to be lacking at the venue, which has a capacity of roughly 10,000 Jim Benton fans. Student sections OVERTIME were fairly loud, but maybe because fans weren’t as close to the action, the emotions weren’t the same. That brings back memories of the Auditorium Arena, which was located at 13th and Champa St. The venue used to host Colorado High School Activities Association state tournaments, Denver Prep League games plus American Basketball Association Rockets and Nuggets games, national AAU basketball tournaments and many other sporting events. The building, which had a capacity of about 6,800, was transformed into the Temple Buell Theatre in 1991. Denver could once again use a midsize arena, which could help CHSAA host several events. Local athletes qualify for national championships Four local youths, representing the Valor Track Academy, have qualified to compete in the 2016 Youth Indoor National Championships March 12 and 13 at the Ocean Breeze and Athletic Complex in Staten Island, New York. Emma Walkman and Jack Wetterling from Highlands Ranch were crowned Western regional champions at the USA Track and Field Junior Olympic West Indoor Regional Championships held at Northern Arizona University. Walkman won the girls 11-12 yearold 800 meters. Wetterling captured the boys 11-12 1,500-meter run, along with a second-place finish in the 800 meters and a fourth-place in the 55-meter hurdles. Sadie McMullen, who lives in Morrison, was third in the 13-14 long jump and Camille Peisner from Parker was sixth in the 13-14 400 meters. Athletes placing in the top six qualified for the nationals. “The athletes that qualified for the national championships have worked extremely hard and deserve being recognized for their dedication, character and work ethic,” said Valor Track Academy director Brian Kula. The first-year academy is based in Highlands Ranch. Football back at Belleview Christian Belleview Christian in Westminster will once again have an eight-man football team next season. Football was dropped after two seasons in 2012 and 2013 because there were not enough boys to field a team. However, after several meetings last September to gauge interest, the decision was made to resume football. Athletic director Josh Polson said the school is excited to be one of the teams that will compete in the Central League for the 2016-18 cycle.

New face keeps high-flyin’ traditions alive By Jeremy Johnson jjohnson@colorado communitymedia.com Julian “Zeus” McClurkin, the Guiness World Records record-holder for the most basketball slam-dunks in a minute, knows the Harlem Globetrotters are more than just a sideshow. In between speaking engagements last week with students on the topic of bullying and three upcoming games in the Denver region, McClurkin — also the team’s coach — took time to talk to Colorado Community Media about civil rights, positive influences and how the Globetrotters remain relevant in their 90th year of entertainment. As part of their 2016 World Tour, the Harlem Globetrotters’ Denver area schedule includes games at 1 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. March 12 at the Pepsi Center and 1stBank Center, respectively, followed up by a 2 p.m. March 13 encore at the Budweiser Events Center in Loveland. See www.globetrotters.com for more. The Globetrotters, known worldwide as the Ambassadors of Goodwill, have also announced a new initiative, The Great Assist, pledging to spread 100 million smiles around the world over the next 10 years with acts of kindness and benevolence. Some examples include bringing schools messages of bullying prevention, character and physical fitness, visiting children’s hospitals, lending a hand after natural disasters, helping build homes for the needy and volunteering at soup kitchens and homeless shelters. For more, go online to www.harlemglobetrotters/ greatassist. Welcome to Colorado,

Harlem Globetrotter team captain Zeus McClurkin. Courtesy photo Zeus. Is this your first time in the Mile High City? My second time, I’ve been to Denver one time before. I played at Pepsi Center in Denver before, but right now I’m here in Colorado Springs, and it’s my first time here — it’s nice. And Denver, it’s a great city. I live in a city, too, Columbus, Ohio, but we don’t really get to experience nature like you guys do. We have our high-rise buildings, too, but you guys have these beautiful mountains. I understand you have a special challenge when it comes to athletics, something that might be even more pronounced in the thin Colorado air: You suffer from asthma.

A joyful place to

CALL HOME

How do you overcome that challenge? You know, I know how to prepare and I’ve trained for a long time with (asthma), so I just know what to do. I always take my inhaler about two hours before I know I’m going to be doing some strenuous activity and then I’m good to go. It’s something I always tell kids, ‘Don’t think asthma can stop you from being an athlete.’ It’s just about knowing how to take care of it and then you can do anything. As the Globetrotters celebrate 90 years together, tell me a little about today’s team and how they are the same or different than the group that started it all? And what are some

of the things that are the same or different between that time and now? The Globetrotters have been around since 1926, and it’s crazy to be a part of this team that’s been around for so long, with me having only been born in 1986. And now I’m coach of the world’s most famous team, and I kind of have to pinch myself now and then. Even though I never heard of the Globetrotters growing up, I really since then have immersed myself in the culture of who they are now. And it means so much to be a part of this team that’s contributed so much to basketball. Did you know we invented the slam dunk, the ally oop, the 3-point shot, the three-man weave, all that? Our main objective then is the same as it is now, and that is to make sure everybody has a good time. Back in the day, the reason the Globetrotters started was because African-Americans weren’t allowed to play in the white-only leagues. And it got to a point where the Globetrotters were blowing teams out by so much that the audience would leave the game. And that’s when they invented this entertainment aspect with the basketball on a string, or the bucket of confetti or bucket of water. So we kept audiences captivated and that’s lasted 90 years as we continue with that same tradition — it’s what we continue to do. Now we’re kind of known for our athleticism. But in addition to being ambassadors of good will, you’ll see some high-flying slam dunks, half-court trick shots and crowd participation that’s unrivaled in sports. In your biography, you cite your brother as an inspiration. Who are some other people that helped shape who you are now? Well, definitely my

Fill your days with new friends and experiences. There’s an energy that comes with living in a community, from making new friends to enjoying fresh experiences. • Engaging social events and activities • Guest speakers and lectures

parents, who were always supportive and they always encouraged me to play sports, any sports. My mom always wanted me to play football so I would ‘toughen’ up, but I didn’t really like getting hit. But I did play football and everything else. I played tennis and golf and soccer and baseball. I was a swimmer. Basketball was actually the sport I was worst at growing up. And then I’d also have to say another great influence is Bishop Joseph White, who always has words of advice and who has always helped guide me. (McClurkin added that he, too, is an ordained minister.) In your bio you tell young athletes to be coachable, so let’s pretend for a minute that you’re the coach. If a young person came to you wanting to someday be a Globetrotter, what would you suggest they learn? You’ve just got to listen to what your coaches want, whatever that might be. When I was starting out, I didn’t care. I’d carry water, equipment — I’d do whatever just to be out there. And my coaches saw that. You recently set a record for basketball dunks in a minute, which is pretty impressive. But does

that translate to anything else in life? For instance, how many chocolate chip cookies do you think you could dunk in a minute? Chocolate chip cookies? Well, let’s see … I’d probably be double-fisting and eating one while dunking the other. How fast can you bake them? I’m going to say I could dunk 127 chocolate chip cookies in one minute. Well, we’ll have to leave that hypothetical record on the shelf for now, but somehow I don’t doubt you. Anyhow, aside from being the slam-dunk record-holder, you’re from Columbus, a place known for its aviation history. So, surely you have some tips on how to fly? Lots of time at the gym, I suppose? I’ll be honest, I’m sort of allergic to the gym. Like, I’m not really that into lifting weights or that kind of thing. But one of my secrets is that I’ve always done calf raises when I’m in the shower. It’s like killing two birds with one stone, you know? You’re already standing in there and you’ve got time, so I always do 100 calf raises and that really helps. My calves are huge, man. And that really helps me jump.

Bringing a taste of Ireland to the West

St. Patrick’s Day spurs Denver area’s ‘hidden Irish’ to tap into traditions By Crystal Anderson | canderson@coloradocommunitymedia.com ocky Mountain scenery has replaced the luscious fields of green and brown farmland of the “Emerald Isle,” but camaraderie around the traditional Irish fare of beer, food and celebrations exists here in abundance. “It’s beautiful, very harmonious, very gay and lively,” Mary Ryan, an Irish expatriate from Donegal, said of Irish music and culture. “That’s just what the people are. We’re very gay, very lively and we really like other people to enjoy it as much.” In Colorado, various meetup groups, networking groups and events bring together Irish expats, Americans of Irish descent and those who wish to be Irish for a grand time. Annually, Denver and local communities, including Arvada, celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with a parade, pub crawls and parties. But for those diehard fans, Wheat Ridge’s Edwards Meats and Lakewood’s Ironworks offer meat, Irish grocery products and specially brewed beer for locals to enjoy no matter the season. “There’s a growing Irish population in the area — from what I’ve seen in our sales,” said Darin Edwards, owner of Edwards Meats. “People want something fun and different for the holidays, and they’re getting more

and more into this stuff.” For Edwards, a family-owned meat store that makes Irish sausages, bangers, Belfast bangers, Guinness sausage, corned beef and Irish back bacon, sales increase dramatically around the March 17 holiday, something he says is driven by the media, interest and local culture. “Irish culture has really been romanticized,” said Wade Maslen, a brewer at Lakewood’s Ironworks brewery and pub. The pub is crafting a Red Ale, a Scotch Ale and a spicy Dry Irish Stout in honor of St. Patrick’s Day. “Any time you have a Guinness or a Red Ale, you’re going to think of Ireland … We all really look toward the mother country we’ve never really been to.” Interestingly, “corned beef is totally an American thing,” Ryan said. “A lot of Irish people never

From rashers (Irish back bacon) to Barry’s Tea, Edwards Meats, a family-owned Wheat Ridge meat and grocery store, carries a variety of Irish products. The company began carrying these products when its meat cutter, who hails from Belfast, started working at the store more than 20 years ago. Photo by Crystal Anderson

Along with that meal, she said stews, shepherd’s pie, brown bread, scones and spongecakes are among her favorite Irish recipes — comfort food — that she likes to make. “Ireland is the original ‘farm-to-table’ culinary experience,” said Maura Clare, president of Denver’s Irish meetup group, the Irish Network Colorado. “Typically, what you see on tables in Ireland is good, simple, local fare: fresh brown bread

(often homemade or at least storebought the same day it’s baked), fabulous butter from Irish cows, eggs from neighbors, locally caught wild salmon, local vegetables — and, of course, Irish potatoes.” The tradition of St. Patty’s Day, a celebration of the death of Saint Patrick, Ireland’s most prominent saint, is one that goes back centuries. In Ireland, Ryan said she fondly remembers attending midmorning mass in Donegal, a small town in the northwestern corner of Ireland, then popping over to the local pub with friends and family to drink beers and sodas, eat and listen to traditional Celtic music. That scene is one many are emulating across the metro area and the state. From “trad” (traditional) music nights at local pubs to savoring a hearty Irish stout at the local craft brewery, Denver is tapping into a celebrated and passionate culture, and bringing a little taste of Ireland to the West. “There’s a whole lot of hidden Irish here,” Ryan said. “…We want to tap into that again.”

Mountain camp teaches ethics of the outdoors Century-old cabins are feature of site near Wellington Lake By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Budding environmentalists who attend Avid4 Adventure’s overnight Colorado Mountain Camp at Windy Peak, near Bailey, will add the Leave No Trace principles to their outdoor skills as they hike, rock climb, kayak, mountain bike, raft, and learn about nature and wildlife. A pilot program called Nature Keepers, based on Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics’ principles, is funded by North Face, which produces outdoor clothing and equipment. It will be added to the day-to-day experiences of children at the camp and, for many, will become a lifelong commitment. It’s hoped that the program will expand nationally. The camp near Wellington Lake is described as “a 100-year-old B&B” by camp director Ian Roberts. It has 100-year-old cabins of various sizes on 240 acres, and during the school year it is one of Jefferson County Schools’ outdoor labs. (The other Jeffco outdoor lab at Evergreen will become a summer camp in 2017, Roberts said.) Unlike other programs that stress outdoor fun above all else, the Nature Keepers program shows kids how to get the most fun out of nature while leaving the least amount of impact, based on Leave No Trace’s seven principles: Plan ahead and prepare; travel and camp on durable surfaces; dispose of waste properly; leave what you find; minimize campfire impact; respect wildlife; be considerate of other visitors. Roberts said they have developed five to 10 games to emphasize respecting wildlife and will bring in birds of prey and perhaps wolves from the wolf sanctuary. He said they have a mix of campers — “they were 100 percent Front Range at the start, now a mix of kids from those haven’t spent time outdoors, to kids of professional athletes and some international campers. We push for diversity.” In a given week the heaviest load would be 135 kids. The youngest ones attend for one week and older ones may stay two or more. The cost is consistent with other higher-end camps: $585 a week to $2,200 for a longer stay. Counselors and staff are mostly 21 and older, with some teen apprentices. The average age is 24 and there are about 42 on staff, including the nurse and kitchen help — a 6-to-1 ratio. Many return. “We had 100 applications for 20 positions: from teachers, nurses, seasonal employees … Avid4 Adventure runs a number of day camps in the metro area as well, including camps in Highlands Ranch and Castle Rock. They are organized by age, offer a variety of activities and offer day care at the beginning and end of the day for those who need it.

Bruins’ coach. Belleview’s high school enrollment is listed as 63 by CHSAA, and it will be easier to resume football than to start a program since previous uniforms and equipment are ready to be used. “With getting the school year started, football can bring everybody together,” said Polson. “Bringing back football has been pretty positive. We’re a small school. We’ve had enough player interest, and we hope not to drop the sport after the next cycle.” Preseason baseball rankings released Preseason baseball rankings were announced by CHSAANow.com on March 7, and Regis Jesuit was No. 1 in the Class 5A poll. Also in 5A, Cherry Creek was second and defending state champion Rock Canyon third. Mountain Vista was ninth. D’Evelyn garnered the top ranking in the 4A baseball poll, with Green Mountain fourth and Wheat Ridge fifth. Faith Christian was ninth in the 3A rankings.

the future. “I would love (the academy) to be a fully fledged school with a sports program,” said Derek Guantt, whose son is in kindergarten at Castle Rock Christian. “I want it to grow and be a force in the education system.” Chad Newell said his daughter, Grace, who has been been attending the academy for the past two years, has really embraced the leadership training. “I see a change in my daughter,” Newell said. ”Her heart towards people and how she approaches school. I believe it’s the leadership at the academy and what they’re teaching — not just academics but how to be a strong example in their community.” One of the reasons the school is now focusing on middle school is to try to reach students during their most vulnerable years, Jackson said. “They are the formative years,” he said. “A big goal is to create a great school where kids feel safe and understand who they are — especially during those years … If we can reach kids earlier, we can help to prevent tragedy,” he said, referring to depression and suicide. Jackson is also a change for the academy. He started as principal in June and came to the school with 11 years of administration experience in Florida. Jackson brought with him his vision to create a community within the school. “Schools are the largest levels of making change in society,” he said. “But you can’t do that without family. If we’re going to educate the whole child, we need the whole family.” To involve more families, the school has launched events like parent lunch days, doughnuts with dad and muffins with mom. The school is also incorporating

Photos by Shanna Fortier community outreach into the curriculum. Students held a talent show for residents at Bonaventure Senior Living. “You could really tell the interaction with the children was a powerful thing,” Jackson said. “We’re trying to teach our kids that the elderly are still important people and they are sometimes forgotten.” The experience was something fourth-grade student Grace Newell came home talking about. “She talked a lot about helping people and how good it made her feel inside,” Chad Newell said. “Being with her classmates and seeing them and participating together is something that made her very happy inside.”

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF MARCH 7, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You might feel more encouraged about changes in your personal and/or professional life. However, it might be best not to rush things but rather work with them as they evolve. TAURUS (April 30 to May 20) The Bovine’s business sense is especially keen this week. But remember that it’s always best to investigate before investing. Make sure there are no hidden factors that can rise up later on. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Working on a family project could create tension between and among those concerned. Your good sense and your patience can help reduce bad attitudes and raise positive feelings. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You should be seeing more progress in the development of your plans and more supporters joining in. News from the past could help change someone’s long-held position. LEO (July 23 to August 22) With personal aspects strong this week, Leos and Leonas might want to spend more time with family and others who are especially close to them. Also expect news of a possible career change. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Taking a strong stand can be helpful this week. But be careful you don’t cross the line into obstinacy. Best to take a position on facts as they are, not as you want them to be.

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

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) ou have a strong sense of the needs of others. This week, turn some of that sensitivity into an honest self-appraisal, and let it find places where you can help yourself. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Creating an emotional comfort zone to handle a personal problem helps at first. But by midweek, you’ll realize you need to deal with it directly or it could linger for too long. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Turning the page on a mistake to start fresh might not be the thing to do. Better to go over each step that led up to the decision you made and see which one misled you.

Answers

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Goats enjoy a varied diet, but eating crow isn’t on the menu -- at least not this week. An embarrassing situation might have gone wrong before you got into it. Check it out. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Your sense of honesty might impel you to speak up about a situation you disapprove of. That’s fine. But do so without sounding accusatory. You might not know all the facts behind it. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Being asked to create a reassuring attitude in the middle of chaos isn’t easy, but you can do it. Support for your efforts comes slowly, but it does come. Enjoy an arts-filled weekend. BORN THIS WEEK: Your honesty about people and issues is expressed in a positive, not painful, way.

The proposed annexation will not result in detachment of area from any school district or attachment of the same to another school district. 11. Except to the extent necessary to avoid dividing parcels within the Annexation Property held in identical ownership, at least fifty percent (50%) of which are within the three (3) mile limit, the proposed annexation will not extend the municipal boundary of the Town more than three (3) miles in any direction from any point of the current municipal boundary in one (1) year. 12.

In establishing the boundaries of the Annexation Property, no land which is held in identical ownership, whether consisting of a single tract or parcel of real estate or two or more contiguous tracts or parcels of real estate: (a) is being divided into separate parts or parcels without the written consent of the landowner thereof unless such tracts or parcels are separated by a dedicated street, road or other public way; or (b) comprising twenty (20) acres or more (which, together with buildings and improvements situate thereon having a valuation for assessment in excess of two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000) for ad valorem tax purposes for the year next preceding the proposed annexation) is included in the Annexation Property without the written consent of the landowner. 14.

Subsequent to commencing this action, the Association attempted to serve Apollo and Beneficial to no avail. As a result, the Association is filing this motion seeking permission from the Court to serve these Defendants by publication. 5. C.R.C.P. 4(g) provides: ... The party desiring service of process by mail or publication under this section (g) shall file a motion verified by the oath of such party or of someone in the party's behalf for an order of service by mail or publication.

Government Legals

10. Except to the extent necessary to avoid dividing parcels within the Property held in identical ownership, at least fifty percent (50%) of which are within the three (3) mile limit, the proposed annexation will not extend the municipal boundary of the Town more than three (3) miles in any direction from any point of the current municipal boundary in one (1) year. 11. The proposed annexation will not result in the denial of reasonable access to any landowner, owner of an easement, or owner of a franchise adjoining a platted street or alley which has been annexed by the Town but is not bounded on both sides by the Town. 12. In Establishing the boundaries of the property to be annexed, no land which is held in identical ownership, whether consisting of a single tract or parcel of real estate or two or more contiguous tracts or parcels of real estate: (a) is being divided into separate parts or parcels without the written consent of the landowner thereof unless such tracts or parcels are separated by a dedicated street, road or other public way; or (b) comprising twenty (20) acres or more (which, together with buildings and improvements situate thereon having a valuation for assessment in excess of two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000) for ad valorem tax purposes for the year next preceding the proposed annexation) is included in the Property without the written consent of the landowner. 13. If a portion of the platted street or alley is to be annexed, the entire width thereof is included within the Property. 14. The affidavit of the circulator of this Petition certifying that the signature on this Petition is the signature of the person whose name it purports to be and certifying the accuracy of the date of such signature is attached hereto as Exhibit B and is incorporated herein by this reference. 15. This Petition is accompanied by four (4) prints of an annexation map containing, among other things, the following information; (a) a written legal description of the boundaries of the Property; (b) a map showing the boundaries of the Property; (c) within the annexation map, a showing of the location of each ownership tract in unplatted land and, if part or all of the area is platted, the boundaries and the plat numbers of the plots or of lots and blocks; and (d) next to the boundary of the Property, a drawing of the contiguous boundary of the Town and the contiguous boundary of any other municipality abutting the Property, if any. 16. In connection with the processing of this Petition, the Petitioner requests that the Town: (a) institute the process to establish planned development (“PD”) zoning for the Property in accordance with applicable provisions of the Castle Rock Municipal Code (the “Code”) and in accordance with any applicable provisions of Section -115 of the Annexation Act; and (b) approve and execute a development agreement acceptable to Petitioner and the Town (the “Development Agreement”) which establishes vested property rights for the Property for an agreed upon term, pursuant to Chapter 17.08 of the Code and Article 68, Title 24, Colorado Revised Statutes, and which, in conjunction with the PD zoning, will establish the development plan for the Property. 17. Petitioner has filed this Petition subject to the following conditions: (a) Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Petitioner, the annexation of the Property into the Town shall not be effective unless: (i) concurrently with the Town Council’s final approval of an ordinance annexing the Property into the Town, the Town Council gives its final approval to (A) zoning regulations for the Property in form and substance satisfactory to the Petitioner, and (B) the Development Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Petitioner; and (ii) the town and Petitioner enter into the Development Agreement. (b) Petitioner hereby reserves the right to withdraw this Petition, and thereby prevent the Property from being annexed into the Town, by so notifying the Town Clerk in writing prior to the later to occur of: (i) the occurrence of the conditions to effectiveness of the annexation as set forth in Section -113(2)(b) of the Annexation Act; (ii) the Petitioner’s delivery to the Town of Petitioner’s written consent described in paragraph 17©below; and (iii) a later date, if any, set forth in the Development Agreement. (c) Neither the Town, nor any representative thereof, shall cause or permit the occurrence of the conditions to effectiveness of the annexation as set forth in Sections -113(a)(II)(A) and -113(2)(b) of the Annexation Act, without the express written consent of the Petitioner. This Petition shall not constitute such written consent. 18. Upon the annexation of the Property becoming effective, and subject to the conditions set forth in this Petition, and to be set forth in the Development Agreement and the documents constituting the terms of the PD zoning for the Property (the “PD Documents”), the Property shall be subject to the regulations of the Town, except as otherwise set forth in the Development Agreement and the PD Documents, and except for general taxation purposes in which case the annexation shall be deemed effective on January 1 of the next succeeding year following adoption of the annexation ordinance. 19. Except for the terms and conditions of this Petition, the Development Agreement and the PD Documents, which terms and conditions Petitioner has approved or shall expressly approve, and therefore do not constitute an imposition of additional terms and conditions within the meaning of Section -112(1) of the Annexation Act, Petitioner requests that no additional terms and conditions be imposed upon annexation of the Property to the town. THEREFORE, Petitioner requests that the Town Council of the Town of Castle Rock, Colorado, complete and approve the annexation of the Property pursuant and subject to the provisions of the Municipal Annexation Act of 1965, as amended, and this Petition.
