HELLO
NEWS IN A HURRY A glimpse of the people in our community
... My Name Is
JASON GRAY Business owner, coffee connoisseur, writer Getting into coffee I’ve owned Crowfoot Coffee in Castle Rock since Jan. 2, 1999. I’ve been doing coffee a long time. Originally, I got a job at Starbucks in Seattle during college. I worked weekends and nights during college there. Then, I worked for a coffee company, Kaladi Brothers, in Alaska. I was there for 10 years, then I transferred with them to Colorado. They were going to transfer me back to Alaska, but I decided to stay here instead. Opening Crowfoot I had the opportunity to open up a shop, and I did. I felt like it was time. I worked for other coffee shops for 14 years and decided to go out on my own and try it. I think that we’re pretty fortunate. We’ve won several awards. We roast our own coffee. I do all the sourcing myself. In my 17 years, the average employee stays for nine years. I have several employees that have been here 14-15 years. We have 13 employees total, most who work here as a second or third job. It’s a real collaborative effort here. The idea when we opened was that we wanted to make sure we roast. It allows us to control the coffee from beginning to end. We don’t cut corners. Bringing in beer Six years ago, we moved from 4th and Perry streets to Wilcox Street and we started doing alcohol. It’s the same idea. We wanted to do something really good. So, we do high-end craft beer. We source beers from Colorado and from throughout the world. We’ve had pretty good response. We worked really hard to make sure the shop is pleasing to coffee drinkers and beer drinkers. We want them to feel comfortable bringing family and also golf buddies. It’s really important to have the family atmosphere.
Jason Gray has owned Crowfoot Coffee in Castle Rock for 17 years. Photo by Shanna Fortier Talking coffee Coffee is similar to wine and vineyards, where it changes year to year. In general, my favorite bean is from Kenya. But that changes. Celebes is an island next to Sumatra. They also produce a good bean. They have different soils. Celebes is a very dark and heavy coffee. The soil has high moisture content and low ph. Kenya is almost polar opposite with lighter soil and higher ph — it produces a brighter, more floral coffee. My go-to is a brewed coffee, but fresh-press is my favorite. My other passion I write with a guy named Allen Harris. We’re finishing our vampire trilogy. The last book should come out sometime in late summer. We combine our names, so the author is Harris Gray. Allen and I started writing together in 2005. The vampire series is new. Before that, we wrote a non-fiction book and “Java Man.” “Java Man” is a serious novel, comedy-drama. It’s very funny but very serious. That one won second place in the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers awards. We both really enjoy writing and have a couple books in the works. Writing about vampires The vampire trilogy we did not as a joke, but a fun genre to play with. We took a different slant to it. The idea is that I envisioned the guy, a manager at an office where he’s kind of pushed around and taken advantage of. He unfortunately gets bit and is upset by it at first. Then, he thinks it will make him cool to be a vampire But it turns out that he doesn’t have the blood lust. So, he’s looked down on more because he’s a vampire that doesn’t like to bite. Eventually, he does bite someone, and things change for the better and for the worse. It’s a riot to write.

Citizen volunteers appointed to boards Four Douglas County residents recently appointed to the Building Board of Appeals and the Liquor Licensing Authority are busy plying their knowledge and experience in construction policy and business law. The four citizen volunteers appointed by the county commissioners provide oversight on specific issues and conduct statutorily required actions in agreement with both the county’s building code and liquor licensing code. The Douglas County Building Board of Appeals hears and decides appeals of orders, decisions or determinations made by building officials about applications and interpretations of building code. Rebecca Baker, of Parker, will serve a three-year term and Jim Johnson, of Sedalia, will serve a one-year term as an alternate. Both were reappointed to the board following a prior appointment. The Douglas County Liquor Licensing Authority administers liquor licenses in unincorporated Douglas County. Don Bammes, of Parker, was reappointed to serve as a director, and Michael Boyle, of Castle Rock, was reappointed to serve as an alternate. Both will serve four-year terms. Young athletes urged to ‘tri’ at triathlon Castle Rock’s annual youth triathlon, Tri the Rock, is May 22, at Butterfield Crossing Park and Pool, 3952 W. Butterfield Crossing Drive.

Plane brings pups a brighter future Dog is My Copilot flies more than 75 rescue dogs and cats to Centennial Airport By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com Peter Rork, a retired pilot and orthopedic surgeon, pursued an interest in rescue animals after his wife died four years ago. “I lost my appetite for medicine,” he said, “and I had a plane at the time.” He now transports “death row” dogs and cats from unwanted areas by plane every couple of weeks. His flights became so crowded with animal crates that he invested in a larger aircraft. He recently had a record transport. “This is the biggest response we’ve had so far,” Rork said. “It’s the biggest dog flight we’ve flown into Denver.” Rork, of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, flies for Dog is My Copilot, a nonprofit 501(c)(3), Wyoming-based organization committed to flying animals out of areas with unsafe shelters. On May 4, he flew a Cessna 208B with more than 75 cats and dogs from New Mexico and Texas to Centennial Airport. About 50 rescue and shelter volunteers waited with handmade signs, crates, playpens and open arms. Mercedes Cordova, founder of From Forgotten to Forever Rescue and Transport, works with Dog is My Copilot to move shelter animals from Roswell, New Mexico, to Colorado to save them from euthanization. “There’s a 90 percent euthanization rate,” she said. “Most don’t make it. So we transport every couple of weeks.” Cordova, of Colorado Springs, works closely with rescues throughout Colorado. Rescue and foster volunteers, such as Suzanne Lively, admire Cordova’s dedication to animals. “She single-handedly has saved so many dogs,” Lively said. “She’s my hero.”
FIND OUT MORE For more information on Dog is my Copilot, go to www.dogcopilot.org Animal rescues look to Colorado because of the Pet Animal Care Facilities Act, a “licensing and inspection program dedicated to protecting the health and well-being of those animals in pet-care facilities throughout Colorado,” according to the Colorado Department of Agriculture website. PACFA regulates rescue facilities and requires that animals be documented in state records, said Cordova. Jamie Roberson, founder of Denver Dachshunds Rescue and Transport, picked up chiweenies — a dachshund and chihuahua mix — at the latest transport. Her goal is to save dogs from being euthanized and place them in safe homes. “There’s always kids in need,” she said, referring to the rescue dogs. “And Colorado is more animal-friendly.”

Commissioners block Hilltop subdivision County denies application to rezone land near Elbert County boundary
By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Douglas County commissioners rejected an application to rezone property for a proposed housing development on Hilltop Road near the border of Douglas and Elbert counties. Commissioners Roger Partridge, David Weaver and Jill Repella all voted to deny the application, citing concerns over the proposed project’s compatibility with neighboring agricultural areas and its adherence to the county’s Comprehensive Master Plan. “I feel that the county commissioners did their job and I’m very pleased with the outcome,” said Tina Huston, a Parker resident who led opposition to the rezoning plan. “This development was way off the mark from the get-go.” Huston was one of approximately 70 people who showed up for the hearing. Many brought signs displaying their opposition to the project, though Weaver, the board chairperson, asked them not to wave them. A total of 14 citizens spoke against the proposal, including a PowerPoint presentation by Huston and three other residents. The application was brought by 303 Investments LLC, a Parker-based company headed by resident Derrick Myers. Myers told the commission his only desire for the project was to sell affordable land to homeowners. Several calls made to the company’s telephone number were not answered. The property is located at the eastern edge of Douglas County, from Hilltop Road to the border of Elbert County. The proposal would have rezoned the land from agricultural use to residential use, distributing 56 parcels of land for a subdivision of homes. Proponents of the
rezoning pointed to the Bandera subdivision, which stands adjacent to the Hilltop property on the western edge of Elbert County. C.J. Kirst of the Tahoe Consulting Group, who argued for rezoning on behalf of Myers, said the Bandera development would eventually be full to capacity, nullifying the issue of Hilltop’s residential use clashing with the neighboring land. Repella didn’t agree with that argument, stating that Bandera is currently struggling to succeed. She added that she couldn’t dismiss the idea that the Hilltop property didn’t comply with the use of the surrounding, primarily agricultural, properties. “They made their decision,” Kirst said, declining to comment further on the board’s rejection of the application. Weaver and Partridge also voiced concerns over the compatibility of the proposed Hilltop development. Partridge added that he didn’t think the plan adhered to the spirit of the Douglas County Comprehensive Master Plan. Both Weaver and Partridge stated they had concerns over whether the character of the area had changed enough since being zoned for agriculture to justify adding more residential property. “I think this is fantastic,” said Olivia Carpenter, who lives in Franktown and spoke against the proposal. “I think this is a true victory for the people, the community and the county in general, and I think the commissioners are truly upholding the values of the community.” Huston said she has spent hundreds of hours fighting the development plan, and she is eager to get back to working on her farm. She said she hopes other concerned citizens in the area can get back to their own lives with this issue behind them. “I’m just thrilled with the 800-plus signatures that we had on our petitions and the citizens who showed up to the hearing and spoke about all of their concerns to preserve the community,” Huston said. “It’s just very heartwarming.”

Recall Continued from Page 1
and Malia Reeves initiated the recall petition for Donahue in early March. Specific incidents cited in the petition allege he has dramatically reduced allotted time for public comment, denied residents the opportunity to speak and shown deference to out-of-town developers and “citizens who support his personal and political interests.” Castle Rock Town Clerk Sally Misare
validated 242 signatures on April 11, 95 more than what was needed. Eight protests were filed against the petition. But following an April 28 hearing in which residents explained their reasons for protest, independent hearing officer Karen Goldman, Aurora’s deputy city clerk, denied the protests. Douglas County will run the election, which is why the date has been scheduled for July. Because of its obligations with the primary in June, county election staff determined it would be a cleaner process to run the recall election after the primary. The recall election is expected to cost the town about $10,000,
according to Misare. Town council was given the option for the town to run the election at an earlier date. But at its May 3 meeting, council unanimously approved the staff-recommended date and method of election. Donahue excused himself from council chambers during the discussion. “I’d like to get this behind us,” said Councilmember Chip Wilson, who advocated for holding the election sooner, if possible. Other councilmembers disagreed, arguing the county is better equipped to oversee the election. “One thing this council has dis-
Council discusses removing Donahue as mayor Vote at May 3 meeting failed 5-1 By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com After the election date for the recall of Paul Donahue had been set, Councilmember George Teal had a question for the mayor: “Do you care to resign from your position of mayor of the town of Castle Rock.” The answer came back quickly. “No,” Donahue said. And with that, Teal initiated a motion to remove Donahaue as mayor — which after 20 minutes of discussion — failed 5-1. “I voted for Paul” for mayor, Teal said at the May 3 council meeting. “But I voted for Paul when he had the confidence of his district. But now, we have a recall on the table. Like it, hate it — that doesn’t matter. The bottom line is, Paul does not enjoy the confidence of his district anymore. He is under recall. How can we have him as our mayor?” Because the position of mayor is not elected but appointed by other councilmembers, council can vote to remove the mayor and mayor pro tem from their positions. They would still
continue to serve on the council. “Right now, the mayor is being recalled,” Teal said. “If the mayor is not being recalled and it’s just Paul being recalled, a lot of the attention the town has gotten, a lot of the issues the town has gotten, go away.” But Councilmember Brett Ford, the most outspoken in Donahue’s favor and who rarely comments at meetings, disagreed. “This sends an absolute chill down my spine,” he said. “If we have someone who committed fraud, perjury, forgery, had done something illegal, I would be the first one to throw him out. But we’re going to throw him out because of leadership style? That’s bull crap.” Donahue is the councilmember from District 1, which includes the western area of The Meadows neighborhood. Teal also pointed out Mayor Pro Tem Jennifer Green would be mayor of Castle Rock at this point in the year, if the residents of Castle Rock had not voted to move elections to November. In November 2015, Castle Rock residents voted to move all regular municipal elections from April to the general election date in November of even-numbered years. This extended the terms of Donahue and Councilmembers Chip Wilson, Mark Heath
and Teal, whose terms would have expired last month. Councilmember Renee Valentine — who also has a petition circulating for her recall — disagreed with Teal because Castle Rock does not have a strong mayor system, which is a mayor elected by voters that is given almost total administrative authority. “I’m not concerned about it,” she said, adding that Donahue’s main job as mayor is to run the town council meetings. “In my opinion, the petition that was signed was not the majority of his district.” Councilmember Mark Heath, who also has a petition circulating for his recall, agreed. He noted Donahue does not get an extra vote as mayor. Recall petitions for Valentine and Heath are still in the circulation phase. Petitioners have until mid-May to turn in signatures. Councilmember Chip Wilson seconded the motion to remove Donahue from his mayor’s seat. But he said it was to get the discussion going and that he would be voting “no.” “I’d like to see the process through,” he said. Teal was the only vote in favor of the failed motion. “The mayor being recalled is a blemish on our town,” Teal said.
Castle Pines voters reject water measure Residents were asked to approve a $64 million proposal
By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Residents of the Castle Pines North Metro District rejected a proposal to finance a $64 million package to implement a far-reaching water resource plan. The vote, which was concluded May 3, tallied 1,317 against the proposal and 659 in favor. “It’s back to square one, as we have to do a better job in detailing for our residents and customers that this plan assures the long-term economic health of the community,” said district board President Keith Dodd. “Our community must think about the infrastructure that is required to meet our water needs. We can put it off, but eventually water demand has to be dealt with. It is arguably the most critical need our residents have.” The metro district created the plan to reduce reliance on groundwater from wells and support renewable water from snow and rainfall. This includes storage in Chatfield Reservoir, through the Chatfield Reallocation Project, in the next three to five years. The renewable water project was reported to cost $106 million. In the ballot question, the metro district asked Castle Pines residents to fund the project by approving the district debt to be increased to $64 million — a portion of the total cost of the project. “While pleased with the outcome, the
ELECTED TO THE BOARD
cussed is maintaining the integrity of an election,” said Mayor Pro Tem Jennifer Green, noting that the county’s signature-verification capabilities exceed the town’s abilities. The ballot question will have a 200word statement of reasons for the recall written by petitioners. The same statement was on the certified petition. The ballot will include a “yes” or “no” question asking if Donahue should be recalled from the office of councilmember. If he is recalled, council would appoint a replacement, who would serve the remainder of the term.
SAMPLE BALLOT The ballot title and question for the recall election read as follows: The reasons set forth in the petition for demanding the recall of Councilmember Paul Donahue: This Petition to Recall is based on the leadership style and voting record of Paul Donahue which we believe have been detrimental to the health our community. In Council, he has lead (sic) an agenda to suppress voices of those with whom he disagrees yet took an oath to represent. Specifically, he has dramatically reduced allotted time for public comment and in some instances denied citizens the opportunity to speak at all. He has shown deference to out-of-town developers and citizens who support his personal and political interests. His voting record includes: supporting a rate of development that arguably exceeds infrastructure and environmental sustainability, voting for a reduction in public comment during City Council meetings, and rejecting grant monies that would benefit Castle Rock senior citizens and families in crisis. The success of this petition will provide an opportunity for a different style of leadership on City Council that genuinely encourages active citizenry and more clearly protects the quality of life for all Castle Rock citizens. Councilmember Paul Donahue’s justification of his course in office: (300 word maximum - will be inserted verbatim if submitted by Donahue) Shall Paul Donahue be recalled from the office of Councilmember for the Town of Castle Rock, Colorado? Yes ___ No ___

next phase is just beginning,” said resident Tim Cook, who has been outspoken against the measure. “We are attempting to set up a dialogue between the city of Castle Pines and the CPNMD with the intention of reaching a path going forward that addresses all the community needs in a comprehensive and affordable manner.” The next step, district Manager Jim Nikkel said, is up to the board of directors. “We could do nothing,” Nikkel said. “Which is not a good option given the water issues in northern Douglas County.” Another option is to raise rates and fees to provide dollars for the needed improvements. But doing that, Nikkel said, provides no tax advantages to residents. A final option is to make another bond request of the community. “We will know better in the months to come,” Nikkel said. “But one thing is certain: The problem with reliance on groundwater still exists.”

Veterans’ mothers honored in Centennial Mother’s Day weekend event had B-17, World War II vets

By Kyle Harding kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com It had been 70 years since Len Estrin had been aboard a B-17 bomber before he began volunteering with Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Museum last year. “It was a lot of fun,” he said of getting to fly after all those years. “A big thrill.” Estrin served as a ball turret gunner on a B-17, also known as the Flying Fortress, in 1944 and 1945, a position that saw him manning a machine gun on the underside of the massive bomber on missions over Europe. He was initially training to be a pilot after enlisting in the U.S. Army Air Forces out of Chicago. “I got through with primary (flight training) and they said they didn’t need pilots anymore, they needed gunners,” he said. Flight crews were voluntary positions, but he still wanted to fly. “You have a choice,” he was told. “You can be a gunner, a gunner, or a gunner.” Estrin, who lives in Aurora, was among several World War II aviation veterans in attendance at the Wings Over the Rockies Blue Star Weekend at Centen-
nial Airport on Mother’s Day weekend, an event honoring mothers of veterans. The weekend also featured several World War II-era warplanes, including a B-17 bomber, much like the one Estrin flew on, operated by the Experimental Aircraft Association of Oshkosh, Wisconsin. “The Aluminum Overcast,” as EAA’s
plane is called, is one of only 10 airworthy B-17s remaining of the more than 12,000 that were built. Unlike Estrin, the plane is not a combat veteran, having been built too late to see service in the war. “It’s just a great weekend,” Wings Over the Rockies spokeswoman Colleen Murphy said. Another veteran in attendance was former P-51 Mustang fighter pilot David Wilhelm, one of the few remaining fighter aces from World War II, an honor bestowed among pilots credited with five or more aerial victories. “I think it’s fun to come out here and
“
hear all the noise of those old reciprocal engines,” said Wilhelm, who lives in Denver. “It seems like old times again.” Wilhelm flew over Italy and other parts of southern Europe in 1944, protecting B-17s en route to their targets. He praised the B-17 pilots and crews for their courage, noting that they could not deviate from their flight paths to avoid danger the way their fighter escorts could. Newt Moy of Centennial, who served as a B-17 pilot in the war, returned the compliment, saying the B-17 crews saw the smaller P-51s that protected them as “little friends.”

Barbara Dietrick, of Castle Rock, is one of two Florida State University graduating seniors who will be studying at the University of Oxford this fall after being named Frost Scholars in the third year of the scholarship program. Dietrick and Eleni Jaecklein, of Ormond Beach, Florida, both 22 and majoring in biological sciences, will begin their studies at Oxford in October. They are among 10 recipients of scholarships through the Frost Scholarship Programme, which funds current State University System of Florida students for one-year, full-time master’s courses in science, technology, engineering and mathematics at Oxford. The program, supported by the Phillip and Patricia Frost Philanthropic Foundation, covers 100 percent of university and college fees and provides a

grant for living costs. Craig Filar, director of the Office of National Fellowships at Florida State, said that Dietrick and Jaecklein will represent FSU at Oxford with strong character and sharp intellect. “The Frost Scholarship recognizes exceptional young scholars who are poised to contribute significant advances in the STEM fields through their careers, and Barbara and Eleni embody the strongest traits of scholarship and leadership found at FSU,” Filar said. “The work they have both done during their time here is impressive. They have demonstrated that the preparation our undergraduate students receive in STEM fields is some of the best in the country, and I can think of no better representatives from FSU to join the ranks of Frost Scholars.” Dietrick plans to pursue a master’s in clinical embryology at Oxford. She will take courses
Second place winners Karis Holm, Jack Kane and Samuel Warfield were awarded $2,000 scholarships. Students were judged on academic performance, community service, essay and financial need.

Bar group presents Law Day scholarships The Douglas/Elbert County Bar Association, a group made up of judges and lawyers from Douglas and Elbert counties, presented scholarships to students May 4. Castle View High School junior Alec Greven was awarded a first-place scholarship of $5,000.
AAUW honors four graduating seniors The Douglas County branch of the American Association of University Women recently honored four graduating senior girls for their academic achievements. These young women excelled in the science, technology, engineering or mathematics programs at their respective schools, and AAUW, a strong advocate in support of the STEM programs, presented a scholarship award to each of them. Scholarship winners were: Leah Dicesare, of Douglas County High School, who plans to study molecular genetics and ge-
on human reproductive biology, embryology and infertility and will be taught practical laboratory skills in these areas, including assisted reproductive technology. She also will write a dissertation based on a research project. “I am absolutely indebted to the Phillip and Patricia Frost Philanthropic Foundation for supporting my aspirations to become a leader in biomedical science,” Dietrick said. “In addition to the inspiration from my family, the knowledge I will gain from the Master of Science in Clinical Embryology program will allow me to further investigate disease mechanisms and how physicians and scientists can collaborate to use clinical embryology to improve health and quality of life.” Dietrick is a member of Beta Beta Beta, the national biology honor society, Alpha Epsilon Delta, the health preprofessional honor society, and
nomics at Michigan State University; Katie Steward, of Chaparral High School, who will attend University of Colorado, Boulder to study aerospace engineering; Jordan Arnell, of ThunderRidge High School, who hopes to study psychology and international security at the University of Denver or Drake University in Iowa; and Skylar Hellner, of Castle View High School, who plans to study pre-med at the University of Alabama with a goal of becoming a pediatrician.

the American Medical Women’s Association. On the same day she learned that she had received the Frost Scholarship, Dietrick was accepted into the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. She has deferred her attendance there until the fall of 2017. “I hope to stay involved in clinical embryology research when I return and transition into using my knowledge from research into practicing as a physician,” she said. The University of Oxford, located in Oxford, England, is a leading research university and the oldest university in the English-speaking world. Before they begin their studies in October, Frost Scholars take part in an exclusive weeklong orientation program at one of Oxford’s oldest colleges, Exeter College, to introduce them to academic life at Oxford.

VOICES
LOCAL
Whole lotta shakin’ can yield results While recently working with a client, I was invited to participate in a planning session with the leadership team. Having worked with this particular client I had met several of the management staff already, but this was really the first session where the CEO would also be actively involved. As the session started, the CEO immediately began to challenge everyone’s thinking. And he did so in a professional manner, but was very direct and almost to the point of intimidating the management team to the point of shutting down their participation. He pushed each one to go deeper and provide the rationale behind their thinking, belief and position. He brought the meeting to a level of intensity that really shook up the room. And then the CEO finally looked around the room and applauded his team for their contributions, thanking them for sticking to their belief systems. He wasn’t challenging them and asking hard questions to try and break them or prove his seniority or dominance, he was simply shaking things up a bit to allow people to challenge their own thinking as well as the thinking and direction that the organization as a whole was headed towards. As we left the room at the end of the day, energy levels were high, confidence was through the roof, pride was abundant and alignment of expectations were achieved. What could have seemed like a meeting
driven by a dominant and ego-driven CEO actually turned out to be a brilliant move to push the team beyond the limits of everyone going along to get along or simply saying “yes” to whatever the CEO said or wanted. This resonated with me as I was watching a Michael Norton baseball game on teleWINNING vision the other night. It was a ho-hum game WORDS at best. The score was 0-0 through the sixth inning. As the cameramen showed the dugouts of both teams throughout the game, it appeared as though everyone was bored including the players and the managers. Even the crowd in the stadium looked like they would have rather been somewhere else. And then all of a sudden one of the managers started yelling something from the dugout at one of the umpires. It seemed to be about nothing and at first looked like it was just going to blow over and the game would go on. And then the coach left the dugout and angrily approached the umpire. You didn’t have to be a professional lip reader to know what he was saying and the
body language was equally as aggressive. And, as you can imagine, the manager was ejected from the game. He started an argument over nothing and got himself tossed out of the game. But what he did was shake up and wake up his team. They went on to score a few runs that inning, the opposing team scored a few runs in their turn at bat, the crowd got back into the game, and excitement and energy seemed to be renewed. What is going on in our own lives personally or professionally where maybe we have become a little stale, a little too routine or complacent? Is there something that we can do to challenge ourselves and those around us to go deeper? Is there someone or something that needs a little shake-up and wake-up in our lives? Have we surrounded ourselves with “yes” men and women who only tell us what we want to hear? And if so, how can we ever grow or expect to progress? How about you, is it time to shake things up a bit in some way or in some area of your life? If so, I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we can shake things up and wake up a little bit, it really will be a better than good week.

Mayor should be chosen by all Castle Rock voters It’s time to start having a real conversation about how we elect our mayor. And I get it: There are serious and entrenched interests in this town who believe it’s just fine for our chief legislator to be elected with just four votes (his and three of his fellow town council colleagues.) But as we’ve seen in the last few months, people in our town — and our nation, for that matter — expect, and deserve, to have a direct voice in the process. We shouldn’t disenfranchise our residents. And I hear all the arguments of why the status quo is just fine ... about how our mayor “just” runs the town council meetings (that’s not true, by the way) and about how a “strong mayor” system is “bad.” One argument goes something like: if a mayor and a town councilmember are from the same district, then that district gets two votes. Really? How does that work when a state representative and state senator are from the same town? Does that town get two votes in the Legislature? Or when a congressman and U.S. senator both hail from the same district? In fact our republic respects when a district — or neighborhood, for that matter — joins together to elect representation in any and all forms. It happens all the time and across the spectrum ... if the Meadows is united enough to capture the seat of mayor

GUEST COLUMN
while also having a town council seat, then maybe the Meadows deserves to have a mayor and town councilmember speaking on its behalf at the town level. Maybe we preserve the model we have now, where a mayor still needs to be a member of the town council, but he’s elected by ALL the voters of Castle Rock, not just the seven on the council
itself. Because we need to acknowledge the fact that our residents have an expectation of direct representation. We learned it in our third-grade social studies class ... that the mayor is the most direct and local advocate for a town; he represents everyone — from every neighborhood — and serves the people, with the support of a council, while being accountable to all and elected town-wide. But that’s not what happens here in Castle Rock. And this isn’t a discussion about indi-
vidual personalities or the sins of previous council administrations. It’s not about town council members “knowing who best represents them” in the mayor’s seat. It’s about how we expect to reasonably grow our town to 100,000 residents while still holding our local, elected officials — each and every one of them — accountable. It’s about letting residents have a voice in deciding who should be mayor. When we read the headlines that our mayor is being recalled, please understand: The only ones who can legally recall our mayor are the members of town council themselves. If you want to help Paul fight the recall and keep his seat (and I personally hope you do), please know that if you don’t live in District 1, you can’t vote for him. And if you feel like he’s done some sort of disservice to our town — or maybe doesn’t represent your priorities — please remember that he wasn’t elected to represent your priorities. Not unless you live in his district. I look forward to a time when our residents can vote for mayor. We all deserve the opportunity to have a say in who leads our town council and who executes the will of Castle Rock voters. But we’re just not there yet. George Teal represents District 6 on the Castle Rock Town Council.

Student applies learning to real life Grace Davis is concerned that so many great teachers have left and are leaving the district. Last week, Marsha Jaroch wondered if teachers were responsible for the protest, and I would say yes they were. A teacher, or several teachers, have taught Miss. Davis to stand for what she believes in, to act with integrity, and to use her education to make the world a better place...to learn today and lead tomorrow. I’m sure the teachers at her school taught her the 4 C’s, and I can clearly see she used three of them. She communicated her concern with others, collaborated with students to plan the protest, and critically thought of the best way to get her message out to help inspire

Return school district to its former prominence As I prepare to retire from teaching after 25 years in the Douglas County School District, it saddens me to see what has become of a district that was once the envy of the state. A casual examination of a recent issue of this newspaper confirms the depths to which the district has sunk. In one story, a lawsuit is challenging the latest permutation of DCSD’s voucher plan. In another, DCSD is about to become the only district in the state to arm school security personnel with semi-automatic long rifles. Another story says two school board members will be investigated after showing up unannounced at Ponderosa High School and subjecting a 15-year-old student to 90 minutes of intimidation — with no parent present — designed to pressure her to call off a scheduled student protest. In another story, DCSD has agreed to return over $2 million in state funding as a result of failing to schedule adequate instructional time for all full-time students during the 2012-13 and 2013-14 school years. Finally, a host of letters to the editor express outrage over DCSD policies and the actions of board members, and call for the resignation of two board members.
I remember a time when the Douglas County School District never graced the pages of this newspaper other than for mundane developments such as district growth, school calendars, the opening of new schools and Rick Young high school athletics. This was a time when GUEST the school board and central administraCOLUMN tion of this district focused not on ideological crusades but on providing a solid education to the youth of this county. This was a time when teachers and administrators were eager to come to Douglas County and happy to spend their careers here. This was a time when this district amassed an invaluable pool of talented, experienced professionals who were dedicated to educating our children. DCSD test scores and graduation rates regularly topped state rankings.
All that began to change after 2009 when a new school board pursued a new and controversial direction. Under Superintendent Liz Fagen’s administration, the district has implemented a “pay-for-performance” system that totally devalues experience and educational attainment and creates a caste system that values teachers of certain grades and subjects more highly than others. DCSD also put in place a new evaluation system that both ties the hands of administrators seeking to evaluate their teachers and encourages teachers to spend endless hours uploading documentation rather than engaging in productive pursuits like lesson planning, grading or communicating with parents. At the same time, the district has overwhelmed teachers with a steady stream of directives governing lesson planning, instruction and assessment. When teachers are required to mind their EUs and EQs, their WCOs and their GVCs, with every single lesson and assessment, education becomes stilted and lifeless, and educators face endless frustration. These district initiatives have sparked the exodus of some of the best teachers and administrators in the state, who have
left DCSD and taken their talents and experience to neighboring districts. Or, like me, they are unwilling to start over in another district, so they retire. The result: schools founder, and students face frustrated and at times inexperienced teachers. It becomes increasingly difficult, and sometimes impossible, to lure outside talent to this district. How did the school board president and vice president respond to this growing crisis? By holding an illegal meeting in which they attempted to bully a 15-yearold girl into silence. The April 19 board meeting made two things abundantly clear: 1) the Douglas County School Board is mired in dysfunction; and 2) two of its members, Meghann Silverthorn and Judith Reynolds, should resign immediately. If they refuse, perhaps it is time for a recall campaign. And then, once they have been replaced, the newly constituted school board should replace Superintendent Liz Fagen and return this once-proud school district to the business of education. Rick Young is a teacher at Daniel C. Oakes High School in Castle Rock.
Citizens should study the impacts of fracking proposals With the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision preserving responsible energy development in the state, fringe activists will attempt one final Hail Mary aimed at amending the Colorado Constitution. Backers of four measures targeting oil and gas development in Colorado have begun collecting the 100,000 signatures necessary for them to appear on the November ballot. If successful, they would essentially eventuate with a patchwork of local regulations that would, in effect, ban fracking, undermine property rights and destabilize Colorado’s business environment. The claim is made that the backers are simply local citizens, merely concerned with protecting their communities. But in reality, their activities are being pushed by out-of-state interests with an agenda quite unlike the citizens of Colorado who

Failure for a teenager to phone or text leads to rumors, snickering, bullying and shaming. If I were to meet a woman whose existence strategies were not enabled by a mobile phone, I might ask for a short engagement. When I see someone on a phone coming toward me, I just stop and stand in the quiet desperation of hope that they will eventually notice me and veer. I am convinced that some of them are not making calls at all. And that they are pretending to make calls. To look cool. I was the only one in an elevator once who wasn’t on the phone, so I started to talk to a ham sandwich. “Hello. It’s me. Please come over tonight. With a shovel. Don’t ask questions.” A woman said, “Are you out of your mind?” “Cracked, but as William Blake said,

So let’s not blame the union or the teachers for what Miss Davis did, let’s celebrate this as evidence that she has had highly qualified teachers who have taught her how to think critically and empowered her to be an agent of change.

to be clear: They are de facto bans on fracking. For example, Initiative 40 would grant unprecedented power to local governments to ban outright any business or industry they don’t like, regardless of state, federal or international law. Initiative 63 is written so broadly that it would potentially empower nearly anyone to drag another into court over an alleged crime against the environment. Initiative 75 would further politicize the oil and gas industry by granting local governments broad new regulatory powers that could imperil tens of thousands of jobs in a heartbeat. Initiative 78 would require oil and gas
operators to create an incredible buffer zone (called a setback) of at least a half-mile from things like “open space” areas and intermittent streams. When you consider the lay of the land in some parts of the state it is clear that would mean a ban on fracking. These initiatives are best seen as blunt instruments aimed at hurting a vital Colorado industry. There is a better way. For starters, we need to let the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission continue implementing the recommendations made recently by the governor’s oil and gas task force.

Modern-day abolitionists fight for children Rocky Vista University screens documentary on human trafficking By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Most Americans believe that slavery ended with Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War. Todd Tueller told students assembled at Rocky Vista University that isn’t the case. Tueller was at the Parker school May 2 for an advanced screening of “The Abolitionists,” a documentary on human trafficking, a black-market trade that enslaves an estimated 2 million children worldwide. “Everybody wants to fix the problem, and it’s a fixable problem,” Tueller said. Tueller started the group Operation Underground Railroad with Tim Ballard, a former operative with the Central Intelligence Agency. The organization identifies traffickers and performs sting operations to rescue and relocate victims of child prostitution around the world. Tueller said OUR has already rescued 500 children and brought 150 traffickers to justice. The film shows footage of sting operations conducted by OUR as well as testimonials from victims. It’s easy to assume a documentary about such a disturbing topic would be too depressing to appeal to a wide audience. Tueller said former victims helped edit the film to ensure a balance between showing the horrors of human trafficking and the positive outcomes for the rescued victims. “It’s super sad, but it’s super inspirational,” Tueller said. Spencer Hill, president of the Rotary Community Corps of Rocky Vista Univer-
Todd Tueller addresses students at Rocky Vista University in Parker before the screening of the film “The Abolitionists” on May 2. The documentary exposes the world of human trafficking and its child victims. Photo by Tom Skelley sity, said stopping human trafficking is a cause more people would get involved with if they knew about the problem. “It happens everywhere,” he said. Hill said he set up the screening to increase awareness of the problem, confident that once people in Parker heard about it they would get involved. “It’s such a big problem that good people everywhere just don’t know about.” “If we can save children from these horrible events, I just think there’s no better cause out there,” he said. Hill said approximately 100 people
showed up to the screening, donating $1,447 to OUR. The film opens on May 16, with the AMC Highlands Ranch 24 and the United Artists Greenwood Plaza 12 theaters participating. The film will play for English-speaking audiences in the United States and Canada before it is translated for audiences in Europe, Asia and other markets. Tueller said OUR’s work has already stemmed the tide of trafficking around the world, and he hopes greater exposure will lead to greater results. He said a
television series is in the works in the U.S. and the United Kingdom, and he added that many local governments have used OUR’s techniques to pursue rescue operations of their own. Getting the word out isn’t just a tool to recruit sponsors. Tueller said awareness of OUR’s work has a deterrent effect for perpetrators of human trafficking, and an inspirational effect for its victims. “We want to show the bad guys that we could be anyone they talk to,” Tueller said, “and we want to let the victims know that we’re coming.”

restrooms and a splash pad. The Millhouse is an indoor/outdoor events center, which holds up to 125 people. There is also an outdoor pond and water feature. But the most anticipated is the amphitheater, which will bring live entertainment from around the country to Castle Rock. “It is an exciting time in Castle Rock,” said Castle Rock Special Events Manager Casey Willis. “Time and again residents have given feedback in community surveys that they want more entertainment options and things to do locally. The amphitheater will not only provide a wonderful place for residents to host incredible events, it will also give us the opportunity to create a different type of concert event in an intimate setting.” With the opening of the amphitheater also comes the new Celebration Concert Series. The series is part of the town’s first full year of ramped-up community festivals, concerts and activities implemented by Willis. The series’ first show is Shooter Jennings, the only son of country legends Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter, who is touring with his father’s band, the Waymore Outlaws. Other bands that will hit the amphitheater stage this summer are the Beatles tribute band, The Fab Four, on June 11; the Colorado Symphony on June 30; the Marshall Tucker Band on Aug. 27; and Starship, featuring Mickey Thomas, on Sept. 24. Tickets for the concert se,ries are on sale now at CRgov.com/ PSMConcerts. “The caliber of bands that have committed to come perform this summer represent the town’s commitment to bring high quality, diver-
The Fab Four - June 11 Emmy Award-winning Fab Four, a Beatles tribute band will entertain with classics such as “ Can’t Buy Me Love,” “Yesterday,” “A Day in the Life,” “Twist and Shout,” “Here Comes the Sun” and “Hey Jude.” The Colorado Symphony - June 30 One of the leading orchestras in the United States, the Colorado Symphony performs more than 150 concerts annually at Boettcher Concert Hall in downtown Denver and across Colorado. Led by internationally renowned music director Andrew Litton, the Colorado Symphony is home to 80 full-time musicians.
The Marshall Tucker Band - Aug. 27 In the early fall of 1973, the Marshall Tucker Band was still a young and hungry group out to prove themselves. Today, the band records on its own Ramblin’ Record Label and continues to release new and previously unreleased material. With hits singles like “Heard it in a Love Song,” “Fire on the Mountain,” “Can’t You See,” and “Take the Highway,” the band earned seven gold and three platinum albums.

‘More than their mortgage’ Parents re-evaulate options as they struggle to afford rising child care costs By Mike DiFerdinando | mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com
J
an Wilusz is an occupational therapist and has four young children, twin 7-year-old boys and two girls, ages 6 and 3. “I can’t afford to work,” Wilusz said. “I want to work. I love my career, but it would cost me more to work and put the kids in child care than it does for me to stay home with them.” Wilusz, who lives in Highlands Ranch, estimates day care for the four children would cost $1,600 to $1,800 per month — all day for the youngest and after school for the older ones. “I looked for three years for a place,” Wilusz said, before deciding the expense wasn’t worth it. Wilusz’s struggle to find affordable child care is a familiar one as the cost of child care climbs due to the increased cost of supplies, insurance and need for longer and more flexible care times for working parents. According to a 2015 study by the Pew Research Center, 48 percent of working parents with at least one child younger than 6 say their children attend day care or preschool, while 45 percent say their kids are cared for by a family member when the parents are at work, and 16 percent rely on a nanny or babysitter. In Colorado, a married couple can expect infant center-based care costs to exceed 15 percent of their income. With two children, the figure rises to more than 26 percent, according to “Parents and the High Cost of Child Care: 2015 Report by Child Care Aware of America.” The average single parent pays more than 46 percent of his or her income for infant center-based care, according to the report. “For a lot of parents, by the time you add up the cost of food, insurance, child care and a mortgagee,” Wilusz said, “there isn’t anything left.”
COST OF CHILD CARE FOR COLORADO FAMILIES Annual cost of infant care: Center: $13,154 Home: $8,862 Annual cost of care for an infant and a 4-year-old: Center: $23,036 Home: $17,054 Infant cost in center vs. public college tuition in 2015: $13,154 vs. $9,487 Source: “Parents and the High Cost of Child Care: 2015 Report by Child Care Aware of America”
More than a mortgage payment In Colorado, the average annual cost of infant care is $13,154 at a child-care center and $8,862 at a home-care facility. A child-care center is a facility that is run out of a business location and typically has a larger staff and the ability to accommodate more children, while a home-care facility is run out of a home and generally has a smaller number of children. Both are licensed and regulated by the state. “It’s a big challenge for households in Colorado,” said Kantryn Harris, president of the Qualistar Colorado nonprofit organization that focuses on early education. “In some cases, people are spending up to 30 percent of their income on child care. For some, it’s more than their mortgage payment.” The increase in cost for child care is in
“
I think if work places could do more in the way of either helping with the cost or providing more on-site care, it would go a long way for people.” — Jan Wilusz, Occupational therapist and mother of four who doesn’t work outside the home because of the high expense of day care
part the result of the need for additional staffing and longer, more flexible hours of operation to accommodate working parents, Harris said. Higher expenses for providers Amber Spear runs a home day care in Highlands Ranch. She said she tries to keep her prices lower than the big centers, but it’s a challenge. She has been in the business for 15 years. “I have to watch twice as many kids as I did 10 years ago to earn the same amount of money and keep my prices competitive,” Spear said. Spear can accommodate up to eight children per day and charges between $50 and $60 per day, depending on whether the child is potty trained. “The day care centers are not (raising prices on) people because they want to make more money,” Spear said. “Their costs and margins are not the same as they have been in the past.” Paula Williams, owner of Paula’s Precious Pumpkins home day care in Highlands Ranch, blames much of the rise in prices on the higher cost of licensing. “Child care these days is so different from child care 25 years ago,” she said. “It is much more regulated by the state —

She said she has invested heavily in her business, including buying special liability insurance specific to child care. And with the expectation that children should also be receiving the necessary educational enrichment before entering kindergarten, the costs for the right toys and supplies also contributes to higher expenses.

‘Pomp and Circumstance’ has worn out its welcome People will pull a Tevye from “Fiddler on the Roof” and shout “Tradition!” but “Pomp and Circumstance” has got to go. In the 115 years since Edward Elgar composed the march for the coronation of England’s King Edward VII, hasn’t there been another piece of music we can use in lieu of “Pomp’s” repetitious monotony? As a student or parent, Elgar’s march is one you’ll hear perhaps twice as a student at high Clarke Reader school and college graduations, and a LINER few more times as NOTES a parent, depending on how many children you have. But even then, I’m not sure anyone actually hears the tune: Students are focused on not tripping down stairs and too excited to concentrate; parents are too busy jockeying for a prime photo position or quietly sobbing into their Kleenex. But what about the teachers, who listen to it year after year? The band students who actively produce the music?
Costs Continued from Page 14
Stogsdill, for instance, brings in music teachers and other area-specific instructors. “As the cost of living goes up, so does ours,” Williams said. “The expense for the supplies, time and necessary art supplies to teach the children all they need to know before entering kindergarten is not cheap.” Affordability for parents But finding day care they can comfortably pay for is a constant battle for parents. A majority of parents with one or more children younger than 6 say it is very hard (29 percent) or somewhat hard (33 percent) to find affordable, high-quality child care in their community, according to the Pew study. And among parents in families in which both mother and father work full-time, 67 percent say it’s hard to find affordable, high-quality day care where they live.

And journalists — like me — who cover three or more graduations in a week? It’s time for a change. Even “Pomp’s” composer would agree. “I’ve a got a tune that will knock ‘em — knock ‘em flat,” Elgar wrote while working on the piece, according to a June 2015 article by The Guardian, one of England’s oldest newspapers. “Pomp and Circumstance” didn’t become associated with graduations until 1905, a May 2003 story on NPR reports, when it was played as a recessional as Elgar received an honorary doctorate from Yale. The work became a reliable source of income for Elgar, but “he came to tire of its jingoism and the fact it overshadowed everything else he wrote,” according to The Guardian.
Lee-Anne Strickoff of Parker, who has two young children, ages 4 and 9, knows that first-hand. As a working mother, she has often done whatever it takes to make arrangements for child care. “Fortunately, for our young family, I was able to work a lot of nights and weekends and relied on the figure-it-out method as needed in-between,” Strickoff said, who works in real estate. “I begged friends and used drop-in day care facilities across town depending on where I needed to work that day. Those run from $7 to $9 per kid, per hour— $2 extra if the kiddo is in diapers.” Strickoff finds the situation particularly frustrating because in New Zealand, where she’s from, the government provides 20 hours of free child care to families to subsidize early education. “It has been a bit of a struggle for us to find child care in the past 10 years,” she said. “It would have been nice to have help in getting formative-year education at a subsidy ... whether or not there were two working parents in the house. I cannot imagine how single parents do it. It is such a financial burden.”

explore her identity and relationship to the world. An introspective, inspiring and invigorating masterwork. Favorite song: “All Night” Best song to soundtrack a truly epic argument: “Don’t Hurt Yourself”
I sympathize. Options are endless for a song to replace “Pomp and Circumstance.” And let’s not be afraid to have some fun with the challenge. Does the replacement need to have a repetitive melody that can be played over and over on a loop? How about Eddy Grant’s “Electric Avenue?” Or the classic rock staple “Smoke on the Water?” Imagine watching students try to navigate a choreographed number in their robes? There’s also always the option to include a little sense of humor. Walking down the aisle to ‘90s R&B star Mark Morrison’s smash “Return of the Mack” would do everyone about to sit through an hours-long ceremony some serious good. Certainly AC/DC’s classic “Highway to Hell” would provide much-needed belly
laughs before settling in for an emotional ceremony. For my money, the best replacement would be Bob Dylan’s incendiary “Like A Rolling Stone,” because it asks an important question: How does it feel? To be on your own With no direction home A complete unknown. Every graduate must come to grips with reality on some level as their high school career ends. It’s simply inconceivable that Elgar’s song hasn’t been topped since he wrote it. Nor do I believe “Pomp and Circumstance” was supposed to be the graduation song for the rest of time. After all, life is about moving forward and embracing change. Graduates are doing it. Why can’t we? Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week. A community editor with Colorado Community Media, he congratulates all graduates, their friends and family on making it through “Pomp and Circumstance” at their ceremonies.

Sculptures add to charm at botanic gardens Minneapolis pieces on loan until early October By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Some were frosted with a bit of snow as the preview of “Stories in Sculpture” began on April 28 at Denver Botanic Gardens/York Street. While the Walker Art Center’s Sculpture Garden in Minneapolis undergoes some remodeling, 13 large works by major 20th-century sculptors are on loan to DBG through Oct. 2 and curator Siri Engberg was in Denver to introduce them. CEO Brian Vogt spoke of celebrating his ninth year at the helm of DBG with a sculpture exhibit. He and director of exhibitions Lisa Eldred were in Minnesota for a conference and met with the director and curator there to explore possibilities of an exchange. The selection of works in bronze, steel, stone, copper and aluminum is based on individual approaches to the human figure, Engberg said. Placed amidst growing, blooming plants, the look will change fast the seasons progress. Some are reflected in surrounding water, while polished surfaces on others reflect floral color. Included are sculptures by Henry Moore, Louise Nevelson, Isamu Noguchi, George Segal, Saul Baizerman, Deborah Butterfield, Barry Flanagan and Judith Shea. As one enters the botanic gardens, Reuben Nakian’s dark bronze “Goddess With the Golden Thighs” is the first piece to meet the eye, suggestive of Greek mythology in an abstract kind of way. Nakian, known for his mythological references, is widely collected by museums around the world, as are all the other artists represented, major 20th-century figures. Next, on your left is American sculptor/theater set designer/landscape architect/furniture designer Isamu Noguchi’s theater set element from “Judith.” He designed sets for dance guru Martha Graham, among others. On the right, tucked against a building, is Judith Shea’s “Without Words” in bronze, marble and limestone. A fashion
“Hare On Bell on Portland Stone Piers” 1983 bronze by Barry Flanagan is a fanciful inclusion in the “Stories in Sculpture” exhibit at Denver Botanic Gardens. Courtesy photo designer first, she is known for her empty clothes that await a wearer. In a bed on your left is Welsh artist Barry Flanagan’s leaping “Hare on a Bell on Portland Stone Piers,” one in his series of whimsical large, leaping hares, cast in bronze, but looking air-bound. More related to the traditional is Italian Mario Marini’s “Cavaliere (Horseman).” The Expressionist sculptor/ painter/professor spent war years in exile
in Switzerland. Louise Nevelson’s monumental work, “Dawn Tree” shows her work as an Abstract Expressionist. To the left, around the Gates Montane Garden, is younger American (1948-1997) Jonathan Silver’s bronze “Wounded Amazon,” one of a series based on classical and religious myth. Georg Kolbe’s more representational
IF YOU GO “Stories in Sculpture” runs through Oct. 2 at the Denver Botanic Gardens at 10th Avenue and York Street. Included with gardens admission. Tours (extra charge) are on select Thursdays with a curator at 9:30 a.m.; Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays with trained docents at 9:30 a.m.; 6 p.m. Saturdays; plus drawing and photography tours, family art workshops, garden camp and more.

Sculpture classes will be offered at rec center Children ages 9 to 12 can create lifetime treasures
MORE ABOUT SIGNING UP “Kidz Bronz” will be offered in two sessions: June 11 and July 16, from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Southridge Recreation Center, 4800 McArthur Ranch Road, Highlands Ranch. Fee: $15 members, $17, guests. Registration information: 303-791-8958, HRCAonline.org.
By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com A pair of seasoned Douglas County artists will share their expertise with children ages 9 to 12 in a class on creating and casting small bronze sculptures. “Kidz Bronz” has been offered several times by sculptors Larry Perkins of Highlands Ranch and Patricia Jenkins of Roxborough through the Roxborough Arts Council. It will be taught at 1 to 3 p.m. on June 11 and July 16 at the Southridge Recreation Center, 4800 McArthur Ranch Road, Highlands Ranch. Registration costs $15 members/$17 guests. The class is offered by the Highlands Ranch Community Association. “They make the most charming things,” said Perkins, who belongs to
both the Roxborough Arts Council and the Ken Caryl Art Guild. Highlands Ranch, called home by many artists, does not have a comparable organization at present. There will be space for nine to 12 kids, Perkins said. He noted that he famous French sculptor, Rodin, displayed evident skill at 13. Perkins sculpted the life-sized bronze pronghorn image, “Tah-Keen-Cha,” which is located at Westridge Recre-
ation Center, as well as numerous other bronze sculptures of people and animals. He has created art in three dimensions since 1994, after getting necessary training — a rewarding second career. Jenkins taught art and worked with gifted children for about 20 years and now works on art in a variety of media, including Faux art and murals. Her favorite is bronze sculpture, which is expensive for the artist. She is a founder of the active Roxborough Art Council, which meets and exhibits regularly. Students will create a model of an animal from a small amount of wax with a simple tool. After a couple hours, they will complete work on it, sign it and leave it with the two instructors who have an arrangement with Western Sculpture on Eighth Avenue, where molds are made and molten bronze poured all at once. They are removed from the molds and sandblasted at the foundry. In a month,
young artists get a little bronze animal back and learn about finishing it with a chemical treatment, a patina. They polish with a Scotch-Brite pad and mount it on a small wooden base. “They walk out with a lifetime treasure — a bronze sculpture,” Perkins said, adding that “it can only be destroyed by throwing down into an active volcano!” He hopes the first group of kids will spread the word. There are very few opportunities in the nation for kids to make a bronze sculpture, he said — “Art Students League in New York City offers a class for a lot of money and there may be one or two more in the country.” Perkins is also involved with the Douglas County Art Encounters program, which exhibits a number of outdoor sculptures at predetermined locations throughout the county. A meeting is scheduled on May 11 at the PACE Center in Parker to finalize choices and locations for this year.

Innovation on display at Denver art gallery CVA has two exhibits running at same time
IF YOU GO Art lovers will want to include this important gallery in their itinerary regularly — Center for Visual Art exhibits are fresh and stimulating. Admission is free. CVA is at 965 Santa Fe Dr., Denver. Hours: 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesdays to Fridays; 10 to 5 p.m. Saturdays. 303-294-5207, cva@msudenver.edu.
By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com “Radical Compliance” and “Wayfinding to Stability” are showing concurrently at the Center for Visual Art, Metro State University’s gallery in the Santa Fe Art District, through July 2. Art teachers share work that responds to the contemporary school climate. A statement by CVA, (which is listed online as the home for the Colorado Art Education Association) about the exhibit sets the tone: “The burden of teaching innovation and working within institutional compliance lands squarely on art educators. Artists traditionally break molds, betray expectations and respond to current events and art teachers are no exception. As teachers, they are challenged with developing space for radical ideation while complying with assessment and evaluation standards. In this exhibition, Colorado art educators explore the opposing forces inherent in their profession through art. “Radical Compliance: A local chapter of the National Art Association, Colorado Education Association, is the leading professional membership organization exclusively for visual
arts educators in Colorado working to advance visual arts education with the intent to fulfill human potential and promote global understanding. Teachers will share work that responds to the current school climate.” Also exhibited at CVA: “Wayfinding to Sustainability. Theory Loves Practice is a Metropolitan State Universitysponsored research group that brings art educators together monthly to cultivate contemporary arts practices in our classrooms.” Upcoming events: May 20, 6 p.m., Living Catalog. Artists share reflections on their latest work in a forum for discussion. June 3, 5-8 p.m., Theory Loves Practice Task Party. A playful, improvisational maker event held during First Friday Art Walk. Participants of all ages will respond to and create “tasks” to inspire connection in our community.

High heels go with the costumes in “Casa Valentina” at the Edge Theater. Courtesy photo
‘Casa Valentina’ a look at lifestyle Fierstein play is about straight men dressing as women in 1960s
IF YOU GO “Casa Valentina” runs through May 22 at The Edge Theater, 1560 Teller St., Lakewood. Performances: 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays; 6 p.m. Sundays. Tickets cost $24-$30. Theedgetheater.com, 303-232-0363.
By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Set in the late 1960s in a small Catskills resort, Harvey Fierstein’s “Casa Valentina” introduces a limited clientele: heterosexual married men who like to dress and act as women over an occasional weekend. The play, now running at The Edge Theater in Lakewood, is based on actual events. George (Valentina/Scott McLean) and his wife Rita (Patty Ionoff) meet a nervous Jonathan (Luke Sorge) who is trying this out for the first time. The other guests will help with makeup and other supplies in his transition to Miranda in a lacy yellow dress. He is originally assisted by a funny, sassy Bessie, a tough former military man (Albert/Warren Sherrill) in robe and turban. (Sherrill, a skilled director and actor, was just named associate artistic director at The Edge Theater. It’s so nice to see them grow.) The group has been meeting on weekends for some time and are comfortable old friends and supportive of each other as they drink, eat, dance and relax. Costumes and wigs by Molly McCurdy are each distinctive and clever — really a standout. Fierstein, an award-winning actor and playwright (“Kinky Boots,” “Hairspray,” “Torch Song Trilogy” and more) creates a
conflict, a necessary part of play construction, in the arrival of Charlotte from California (Stuart Sanks). She is a human rights activist and magazine publisher, who wants to go public with the cross-dressing. “Bad idea,” the others say — “no way!” The play, which was nominated for four Tonys, is strongly written and attracted some of Denver’s top actors to the cast, including Jim Hunt (Amy/the judge), James O’Hagen Murphy (Michael/Gloria), Chris Kendall (Theodore/Terry), McClean and Sorge. Patty Ionoff is strong as George’s cooperative wife. Each character has a back story. Director Josh Hartwell had to cope with pulling different stories together and moving some big guys around in high heels — it all goes smoothly and gives an audience some insight into another lifestyle. In the play, the resort is in financial trouble and George had hoped Charlotte would be a source of financial assistance to add another issue to what transpires on a weekend. Theatrical storytelling is what it’s all about here.

This is the first one she cast in bronze, Engberg said, and Walker personnel helped her work out the technique for converting her wood pieces to bronze. The final piece on our tour is George Segal’s lifelike “Walking Man,” which called for the model to be covered in plaster to make a mold, which was then cast in bronze, showing ears, nose and wrinkles in clothing. What’s his story?, one wonders, as he seems to be walking toward you out of the garden. This is an ideal show to take children to.

Huskies hold on to edge Sabercats Two big innings highlight wild game between rival schools By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com When Douglas County and Castle View compete against each other in any sport, it’s a must-win game for the Castle Rock rivals. However, on May 6 in an evening Continental League baseball game played at Double Angel Park in Parker, there was even more at stake for the Huskies, who had slipped in the Ratings Percentage Index rankings and needed a victory to assure a trip to the state playoffs. There were two long innings for each team but Douglas County held on for a 14-11 victory. Prior to the game, Douglas County was 27th in the RPI rankings used to help determine the 32-team Class 5A playoff field. The Huskies edged up to 26th after the win. “In my mind, if we lost to Castle
View we would have dropped another five (spots in the RPI) and we’re out of the hunt,” Douglas County coach Craig Gienger said. “We looked at this as a must win for us not only to get in but to get momentum.” Key moments Douglas County trailed 5-1 after three innings but responded by scoring three runs in the fourth, three more in the fifth and seven in the sixth inning to take a 14-5 lead. But Castle View sent 12 players to the plate and collected four hits and five walks off two Douglas County relievers and scored six runs. It took 58 pitches to end the threat when Huskies’ sophomore right-hander Jack Lisowy induced a fielder’s choice ground-ball out with the bases loaded to end the game. Key players/statistics Reggie Williams had three hits and three RBIs for Douglas County. Brett Johnson and Isaiah Casas each had two hits and freshman Murphy
Gienger had three RBIs, with a tworun homer and sacrifice fly. Senior starting pitcher Jake Minnick, who got the win, yielded four earned runs in six innings and also chipped in two RBI. Hayden Smith belted a two-run homer in the Sabercats’ three-run second inning. Dalton Beveridge and Aaron Schwartz each had two hits and two RBI for Castle View. They said it “We battled back,” Minnick said. “We’ve been struggling as of late battling back in games, but against Castle View we did. So added on with the pressure of playing Castle View, we still had in the back of our mind the RPI and if we had lost we might not be able to go to the playoffs. We’re looking at being a higher seed in the playoffs, but I don’t think that fazes us as a team.” Gienger knew the game wasn’t over despite the nine-run lead. “Give Castle View credit,” he said. “They are well coached and we knew
they were not going to give up. We had a couple guys that came in and struggled a little bit but the good thing was we’re a team and we pick each other up. It was a good win for us.” Castle View coach Jose Diaz reminded his team before the start of the seventh inning not to give up. “Before the last inning what I was telling them was I played on a team and we were down by 12 and we ended up winning,” he said. “That’s the beauty about baseball, there’s no time. Time cannot expire. You need to get three outs. Our record does not reflect how good this team is.” Look for Castle View and Douglas County to continue their baseball rivalry at Double Angel Park. “I loved the atmosphere and about 500 people showed up to see a great game,” Diaz said. “Coach Gienger and I talk a lot and we’re going to make this an every-year event. Next year they are going to host and it will be here again. I love baseball under the lights.”

Creek senior seeks another tennis title State tournaments set for May 12-14 By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com
Gloria Son, who won the Class 5A No. 3 singles state championship last year, is playing No. 1 singles this season for Cherry Creek and didn’t lose a game in the Region 1 state-qualifying tournament. Photo by Jim Benton
“
There’s always a lot of pressure going in just because of our past state titles. That doesn’t mean anything. This is a new year. I really think we will do well.”
Gloria Son, Cherry Creek senior tennis player
Cherry Creek senior Gloria Son is back in the Class 5A state tennis tournament, but once again, anyone interested will have to check the brackets to find out where she will be playing. As a freshman, Son won the state title at No. 2 singles. She was third at No. 1 singles in 2014 and won the No. 3 singles championship last spring. She has assumed the No. 1 singles role this season for the Bruins. Kalyssa Hall, the No. 1 singles runner-up last year, decided not to play but has remained in school. Anshika Singh, the 2015 No. 2 singles champion as a freshman for Creek, transferred to Smoky Hill. “I’m back to the spot I was my sophomore year,” said Son, who will be playing tennis next season at Army. “It is a different feel just because I’m an upperclassman. I have the responsibility to keep my team upbeat. Tennis wise it’s not that different. “I feel I’m playing pretty well right now. State is coming up and I’m prepared with my team.” Cherry Creek advanced 11 of 11 possible players and easily won the Region 1 state qualifying tournament May 4 and 5, which was held at Creek. Son didn’t lose a game in claiming the regional title with three wins. “At the beginning of the season because the team didn’t know each other well and we had never hit with each other, it was a different feel,” said Son. “Now that we are at the point where we are in the season, I’m really confident with my team and I know we will do well.” The Class 5A tournament is set for May 12-14 at the Gates Tennis Center in Denver. The 4A tournament is set for Pueblo City Park the same days. Cherry Creek has won 19 consecutive state titles and 33 overall, but Fairview, Fossil Ridge and Mountain Vista appear to have teams with the talent to make a title run. “There’s always a lot of pressure going in just because of our past state titles,” Son said. “That doesn’t mean anything. This is a new year. I really think we will do well.”

‘She loves the class...but mostly she loves him’ Karate instructor brings out the best in special-needs students By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Martial arts instructor Eddie Afyoni begins each class by reciting the same mantra with his students: “To be a good person — knowledge in your mind — honesty in your heart — and to be a good friend.” The beginning of his classes are identical, like the level of respect and professionalism he shows all of his pupils. But he can be forgiven if one class holds a distinct place in his heart. Every Wednesday for the past three years, Afyoni has taught martial arts to students with special needs. They come to his Karate for Kids studio in Parker with different abilities and challenges. But Afyoni’s goal for each of them is the same: to take them to their fullest potential. “Some of them are more vocal than others, some of them like to talk and some don’t, but he pulls it out of all of them — that’s the best part of what he does,” said Jason Strong, an instructor at the studio. “Most schools don’t accept special-needs students because they see them as a distraction to the big classes. We like to have them here and then incorporate them into the main classes as well.” Afyoni and Strong want to expand the class to other Karate for Kids locations in Highlands Ranch and Littleton as word gets out and demand increases. Strong hopes to teach the classes at the other locations — and live up to Afyoni’s example. “A lot of people try to teach in a special needs class and they can’t do it,” Strong said. “He’s the best I’ve seen.” Parents of Afyoni’s students agree. They speak of Afyoni and the class with gratitude, admiration and praise. Maura Klene, whose daughter Rhianna leads the class in some routines, said Afyoni’s ability to appreciate each student’s abilities and needs ensures that each student succeeds.

Afyoni’s studio, at 10970 South Parker Road, Parker, hosts a bi-weekly class for special-needs students. Photo by Tom Skelley “He is incredible. What is going to work for (each student) is what he makes happen,” Klene said. “Each of the kids’ successes looks a little bit different, but he makes sure each kid has that success.” Rhianna was born 14 weeks premature. Throughout her life she’s had issues with anxiety, learning sequences and coordinating movement between the left and right sides of her body, challenges many of her classmates share. Afyoni’s class, Klene said, has helped Rhianna become more coordinated and more confident. Diane Triggs, whose 28-year-old son Paul is in the class, agreed with Klene that the class improves the students’ coordination and confidence, as well as giving them a chance to socialize. “They just love coming here, just to be together,” Triggs said. She said Paul, who has Down syndrome, likes the companionship and the exercise. Paul said his favorite part of class is using nunchakus. Calisthenics, nunchakus and strength-
training exercises are all part of each session, in addition to practicing a sequence of self-defense maneuvers. With the exception of a few quick water breaks, the class is a no-nonsense 60-minute workout. In one exercise, Afyoni comes at each student, teasing “I’m going to punch your lights out” and forcing them to protect themselves. It may sound harsh, but Strong said Afyoni’s approach is part of the reason the students respond so well. “He’s tough with them, that’s what I think they like so much,” Strong said. “Eddie doesn’t treat them with kid gloves just because of their special needs. I’ve talked to some of the parents before, they like that he challenges them … They’re earning their rank, just like all of our students do … There’s no special treatment for them.” The challenge the students face has to be real for their sense of accomplishment to be genuine, Afyoni said. As they progress in rank, achieving a new belt as they master new skills, he sees their pride and confidence grow.
“Always they are being told you can’t do things,” Afyoni said. “This is the one thing that they do where they can see as they move up and they know: ‘I did this.’ ” Afyoni’s toughness is tempered with understanding. In each class, he has to strike a balance between pushing his students to improve and knowing when back off and add a dash of praise. “The most challenging part for me is to walk the thin line so they don’t get frustrated,” he said. “Sometimes when they feel frustrated, they just crash, and I feel like `Oh, my God, I pushed too hard maybe,’ so that’s the challenge, to push them just enough … To reinforce what they’ve learned, I have to find something correct in everything to build them up on that.” Understanding his students’ thresholds is key to Afyoni’s success, but Strong and the parents also point to his calm persistence. Teaching his students new moves may require repeating instructions, but Afyoni said it leads to a greater reward for them, and for him. “There are sometimes it takes once or twice, and sometimes it takes 100 times to show them something,” he said. “When they do it … it doesn’t matter. When they are doing it, for their own satisfaction, then I got paid.” And the learning goes both ways. The students teach him lessons more important than karate, Afyoni said. Teaching the class has changed his outlook on life, making him more aware of how his attitude affects the world around him. “It gave me a huge spectrum … to accept people for who they are, not who you expect them to be,” he said. “I have much more compassion for humanity, and, as old as I am, I appreciate you still see things.” Sue Jessen, whose daughter Ana has been in the class since it began, said the students’ success has more to do with that compassion than Afyoni’s mastery of martial arts. “He has taken every one of them from where they were to higher levels,” she said. “To see what he’s been able to do has been wonderful. She loves the class, she loves the forms. But mostly, she loves him.”
