MY NAME IS

NEWS IN A HURRY

TARA RICCIARDI

Interior design, diverse dining among passions About me We have lived in Castle Rock for about 12 years, since our oldest son was a toddler, and we’ve since had another boy and girl born in Colorado. We moved here from Brooklyn to find a little more space to raise a family. Having said that, after about eight years in the deepest of suburban neighborhoods, we decided to design and build a home that’s walkable to downtown Castle Rock. We hoped — are still hoping — that the development around town would spark a more diverse and elevated food scene. As a way to demonstrate the need for great food, we piloted a wood fired pizza business at Maddie’s Biergarten. In hindsight it was a fantastic way to become part of our new community. A love for interior design For me, design is a hobby, a part-time profession, but mostly a compulsion. Our youngest just started kindergarten this last fall, so only now have I had the time to consider turning that passion into gainful employment on a scale beyond smaller projects for friends and family. And of course, over the last year or more we’ve been focused on our new home. My husband loves the reclaimed aesthetic, so there are lots of interesting, aged materials inside and out, including reclaimed wood siding from our friend Mike Hudson at City Limit Antiques and rusted metal roofing. It’s our own unique hillside escape five minutes from school. Now if only I can get the landscaping to hit the right note of manicured vs. wild … sun hat donations are welcome. Supporting a new school This fall there’s a new school, Renaissance Secondary, opening in Castle Rock. Since last summer I’ve been doing the marketing to let people know about it. It’s been a privilege to support such an enor-

I’ve worked too hard, learned a ton and been at times completely outside my comfort zone, but rarely undertaken something so rewarding. We couldn’t be more excited for our kids to be a part of an education that’s focused on the right kinds of things — critical thinking, empathy, self-assessment, etc. I’ve also been working alongside a friend who owns a fantastic, local line of natural products for face and body, Nevali Naturals. Why I love living in Castle Rock The views, the weather. The access to great skiing. The sense of community. Especially now that we’ve refined our niche a little bit, it’s a perfect blend of suburban family life with a little bit of a walking destination. We’re still waiting for thai food, though.

Turn lane being added A project to add an additional left-turn lane from northbound U.S. Highway 85 onto westbound Meadows Parkway in Castle Rock will begin on June 26 and take about three weeks. The project aims to reduce congestion for drivers headed into The Meadows from the south end of town. The existing left-turn lane will be closed during construction but the remaining lanes will be adjusted to permit left turns onto Meadows Parkway. An alternate route is to continue north on Highway 85 and enter The Meadows through the North Meadows Drive. Crews will also be installing a new traffic signal pole and mast arm at the intersection. For more information visit CRgov.com/roadwork. Roundabout planned Downtown Castle Rock will soon feature a new roundabout at the intersection of Third and Perry streets. Construction will begin on July 5. To learn about the construction schedule or to ask questions of town staff, attend one of two open houses scheduled for June 29. The first is from 9 to 10 a.m. and the second is from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., both at fire headquarters, 300 Perry Street. For more information visit CRgov.com/PerryRoundabout.

Castle Rock couple recount newborn’s tough road Rare condition required surgery, hospitalization in first days after birth BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

For Castle Rock couple Jennifer and Debbie Stevenson, growing their household from a family of three to a family of four has been a sometimes terrifying but ultimately humbling experience, they say. The couple married in 2011 after dating for two years. Debbie had always taken caution in relationships, she said, but two days after meeting Jennifer, Debbie told her best friend of 30 years she’d met the one. After marrying, Jennifer and Debbie moved to Castle Rock from Atlanta. Ask them what they think of their new hometown, and they reply “Love it” in unison. They like their neighbors, they say people are friendly and they hear schools are great. The women began trying to start a family when in Atlanta, but it was an emotional process, Debbie said, simply stating they’d had some losses. Finally, in Castle Rock, they welcomed their first son, Zachary, now 2 years old. SEE NEWBORN, P8

the Douglas County School District budget

BY MIKE DIFERDINANDO | MDIFERDINANDO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Douglas County School District Board of Education voted 4-2 on June 20 to approve a $578 million budget for the 2017-18 school year. Board members David Ray and Anne-Marie Lemieux voted against approving the budget because they said they needed more information and a

Salary increase for employees The board approved a 2 percent salary increase for all employees, which is projected to cost $6.5 million. The board had previously discussed looking for ways to give teachers an additional 1 percent raise. District staff presented three options: the elimination of a $3 million device refresh from the technology budget; eliminating a $3 million student enrollment contingency that

Reorganization and savings District officials found ways to save about $21 million compared to the previous year, thanks to a central administration reorganization that saved $14 million in 2016-17 and will shave off $7 million in 2017-18. Those included eliminating the positions of the chief

More detail sought on administration spending “What’s really difficult for me is when we are shifting money around to different departments and different categories, its really hard for us to have oversight, which is the role I think we’re supposed to play,” Ray said. “The reason why this is such a hot issue for us is because of a lack of trust. There just has been a lack of trust over the last eight years about how we spend money.”

Per-pupil funding up The district, the third largest in Colorado, will receive $7,389 per pupil from the state — $244 more per student than last school year. The increase is projected to generate $11.5 million, but will be offset by a projected

Board member James Geddes left the meeting before the vote, but said he fully supported the budget and encouraged the rest of the board to vote to approve it. Geddes did not offer his reason for leaving. guards against lower-than-projected funding due to drops in enrollment; and waiting to see if additional property tax money may be available later in the year. None of these were acted on during the meeting, but could be implemented by the board in the future. “It could be an abundance of caution,” interim Superintendent Erin Kane said. “I completely acknowledge that. However, this budget has generally been our tightest ever so there isn’t a lot of room for error.”

growth and development officer, chief academic officer, chief operating officer and chief community relations officer positions. The savings also includes unspent department carryover and money saved from the reorganization of the professional development and the World Class Education departments. Lemieux agreed, saying she needed more information to be able to vote on the budget and that she wanted to hear more detail about the district’s capital needs from the Long Range Planning Committee. Kane said if a budget were not passed by June 30, the state would automatically allocate the district 90 percent of what it received the previous year. This would have resulted in a $73 million loss to the district. decrease of $4 million caused by declining enrollment at some district schools, mainly at the elementary level.

The Long Range Planning Committee — a group of community members and parents charged by the district with studying its capital needs — put the price tag at $275.1 million for needed current and future projects over five years.

Planners say no to Franktown Village BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

After six weeks, three public hearings and more than 100 statements against the project, the Douglas County Planning Commission decided on June 19 not to recommend the rezoning application for the Franktown Village residential and commercial development by a vote of 6-0. Commissioners tied 3-3 on a decision on a water appeal for the project, filed by applicants Russ Berget and Pat Carroll. The final decision on the project will be up to the Douglas County commissioners. Approximately 200 people from Franktown and surrounding areas attended the hearing at the Philip S. Miller Building in Castle Rock, as they had for previous meetings on June 5 and May 15. Both previous meetings were continued to allow the hundreds of citizens who registered to speak out against the project. “A lot of people put their heart and soul into it,” said Diana Love, president of the Franktown Citizens Coalition II, a nonprofit organized specifically to stop the project. “They believed in our government saying ‘it’s going to stay rural,’ and last night they got their belief validated.” The Franktown Village plan, which has been in the works for over five

years, would include 286 single-family homes and 180,000 square feet of retail and commercial space. Its proposed location, at the intersection of Colorado Highways 86 and 83, was designated as a rural area in the county’s 2035 Master Plan. The rezoning proposal would have changed zoning to planned development from rural residential zoning. Planning Commission Chair Clarence Hughes of Castle Rock reminded citizens in the audience to quiet themselves as Jack Reutzel, attorney for the developers, rebutted the arguments made by citizens opposed to the project. In his decision, Hughes expressed concerns over degradation of wildlife habitat from the proposed development. Commissioner Peter Bierbaum, of Larkspur, echoed citizens’ concerns that the water supply for the project was not renewable or sustainable. The plan will go to the Douglas County Board of Commissioners on July 25, unless Carroll and Berget withdraw their application. Calls to Reutzel were not returned. Love said she is cautiously optimistic after the commission’s decision, and that she and other coalition members will be ready for another fight if necessary. “We’re not done yet,” Love said. “We kept a lot of our powder dry. If it goes to the board, then it will come out.”

Trucker pleads not guilty in trooper death case BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The truck driver accused of hitting and killing a Colorado State trooper last year on I-25 pleaded not guilty in a Douglas County courtroom on June 23. State Trooper Cody Donahue, a husband and father of two from Parker, was investigating an accident south of Castle Rock on Nov. 25 when he was struck and killed by a passing commercial box truck. The driver accused of hitting Donahue, Noe Gamez-Ruiz, of Denver, was charged with careless driving resulting in death and the careless passing of an emergency vehicle resulting in death. Prosecutors later added a class 5 felony charge of criminally negligent homicide. Gamez-Ruiz, 42, did not speak during his June 23 court appearance and silently left the courtroom following the proceeding, where Donahue’s wife, Velma, was also present. Surrounded by members of the state patrol, she became emotional in a television interview following the arraignment, saying it was hard to hear Gamez-Ruiz plead not guilty to the charges.

Gamez-Ruiz’s next court date will be a motions hearing on Sept. 1. The prosecution told Judge Shay Whitaker they expect expert testimony when the case goes to trial later this year, requesting a five-day trial. Gamez has been out on $500 bond since he was initially charged. Gov. John HickenGamez-Ruiz looper on June 1 signed into law a bill named in honor of Donahue that increased the penalty for failing to follow the state’s “Move Over” law. The law requires drivers to change lanes or slow down when passing a stationary emergency Donahue vehicle or towing carrier. The penalty was increased from a class A traffic offense to a class 1 misdemeanor if a driver causes bodily injury and a class 6 felony if a driver causes the death of another person. At the time of his death, Donahue was the third state patrol trooper killed in a traffic crash within 18 months.

with people from across the metro area for the Denver Polo Classic. Under a giant white tent lined with crystal chandeliers, families and friends mingle over food and drink and watch polo games on an adjacent field, all while donating to a cause. “Even if you aren’t into polo, it appeals to everyone in different ways,” said Carla Finn, event director of Schomp BMW, title sponsor

of the three-day event. The nation’s largest charitable polo tournament, the Denver Polo Classic racks in about $1 million per year for Denver Active 20-30s, a nonprofit of volunteers in their 20s and 30s who raise money for and support disadvantaged, at-risk youths. Held at the Polo Reserve, 4400 W. Mineral Ave., the weekend kicked off with a black tie dinner on June 23,

followed by family day on June 24 and a polo championship on June 25. Reasons for attending the ticketed events differed among guests. Amy Sherman, president of Northwest Douglas County Economic Development Corp., was at family day with her 12-year-old twins and husband. She said she enjoyed the mix of food, pointing out colorful, bite-

sized cupcakes. “It’s also fun to learn the game of polo,” Sherman said. Kristen Lee, of Highlands Ranch, sat at a table with her family while her son, 6-year-old Jameson, perched on the grass below, watching uniformed polo players on their ponies dart across the field. “The boys absolutely love the horses,” Lee said.

NEWBORN

“These babies can be the sickest in the hospital,” Liechty said. The severity of health complications from CDH runs on a spectrum depending on how much of the diaphragm was underdeveloped. Some babies can recover quickly after birth, but others have long-term health complications. In Eli’s case, one lung was smaller than the other, and his heart had been moved beneath his armpit by the other crowding organs, Debbie and Jennifer said. “When he explained it, for me, it took my breath out. It felt like I had just been sucker punched,” Debbie said of their visit with the first maternal-fetal doctor. “I was just scared,” Jennifer said of CDH. “We didn’t know what it was.”

FROM PAGE 3

Then Jennifer became pregnant again, but this time it resulted in a tumultuous journey through news of a significant complication, a choice not to terminate their pregnancy, and weeks in the hospital once their baby, Eli, arrived.

Difficult news “He was looking good,” Debbie said of their now 8-week-old son, Eli. “All the ultrasounds and tests were looking good.” But at 18 weeks, the ultrasound technician said something might be wrong. Jennifer and Debbie were sent to a maternal-fetal doctor on Dec. 13. After rounds and rounds of testing and ultrasound imaging, the doctor ruled out a number of potential issues and told the Stevensons he believed the baby was suffering from a diaphragm hernia. At first the Stevensons were relieved. To them, a hernia sounded less serious than a heart defect or having organs in the wrong place, as doctors first suspected — but then their doctor further explained Eli’s condition. “He stopped and said, ‘It’s not that kind of hernia,’” Debbie said.

A rare condition Eli was diagnosed with a rare condition called congenital diaphragmatic hernia, or CDH. It occurs in about 1 in every 2,500 births in the United States,

Eli Stevenson was born with congenital diaphragmatic hernia, or CDH, a rare condition in which the diaphram is not properly formed and organs from the abdomen crowd into the chest cavity, inhibiting the heart and lungs. JESSICA GIBBS said Dr. Ken Liechty of the Colorado Fetal Care Center at Children’s Hospital Colorado. The Stevensons learned on Dec. 13, before they would eventually go to the Colorado Fetal Care Center for care, that CDH means a baby’s diaphragm is improperly developed. This allows organs in the abdomen to move into the chest cavity, crowding the baby’s heart and lungs and preventing proper growth. The birth defect requires surgery to correct.

Business Plan Basics

Tough choices The maternal-fetal doctor told Debbie and Jennifer one of their options would be terminating the pregnancy. Their first doctors brought the option up repeatedly, Jennifer and Debbie said. “It was never said, ‘You should do this.’ It was presented as an option and I think that you have to do that as a doctor,” Debbie said. “I thought it was presented too many times.” The women left the doctor’s office devastated, Debbie said, and rode home in near silence. Before making any decisions, however, they did their best researching CDH online. In less than a day, they knew terminating was the wrong choice for them. “As long as doctors gave us a chance that he could have a good, normal life,” Jennifer said, “we figured we’d deal with whatever it was.” The couple was prepared to find the best treatment for CDH, even if that meant temporarily relocating. Their online research led them to children’s hospitals in Boston and Philadelphia. After consulting with a representative at the children’s hospital in Boston, they learned there was a clinic specializing in CDH just 35 minutes to their north at Colorado Fetal Care Center with Children’s Hospital Colorado. Pushing forward On Dec. 30 they began more rounds of testing, this time at the Colorado Fetal Care Center. Terminating the pregnancy never came up from that point on, Debbie and Jennifer said. “We didn’t talk to them about that,” Liechty said of termination, “because this was a relatively good prognosis given our expertise with this.” Liechty, the surgeon who would ultimately operate on Eli at four days old, said many healthcare providers don’t have expertise in CDH and that there is much misinformation out there on the subject. But at Colorado Fetal Care Center, the Stevensons were able to learn Eli’s odds at recovery were good despite the seriousness of CDH. “We knew his entire stomach was up in his chest and we knew his small bowel was in his chest and we knew his spleen was in his chest,” Debbie said. “Later we’d find his colon was up in his chest too.” At 38 weeks, Eli was born in what Debbie and Jennifer described as a totally controlled environment, although at the time it looked like terrifying chaos to Debbie.

A chaotic birth Jennifer and Debbie were warned that Eli wouldn’t be able to cry at birth. The problems with his lungs created by CDH would restrict his breathing and sound in those first minutes, doctors said. But he cried, if only for a brief moment, before doctors rushed him to a stabilization room where he was surrounded by a team of about 15 people, Debbie said, and then sedated. “He was like a little human pincushion,” Debbie said. While some doctors tended to Jennifer, Debbie looked on as more doctors and nurses swarmed around Eli in the stabilization room next to their delivery room. At times, not understanding that sedation was normal, Debbie couldn’t tell if her motionless, silent son was alive or dead. She could see doctors work on Eli, take a step back, look at a monitor and shake their head, she recalled. Eventually a nurse came to console her and explain everything was going normally, despite the hectic scene. “It was like a finely tuned dance. Everybody knew exactly what to do but it was totally chaotic at the same time,” she said. “That was hard, watching him.” After more than two hours, Debbie estimated, Eli was a stabilized, 7-pound, 11-ounce baby. The road to recovery For more than six weeks after his birth, Eli remained in the hospital as he recovered from surgery. Debbie and Jennifer were not able to hold their son for nearly a week, but they made sure to place a hand on his head or feet to let him know they were there. The women spent no more than two nights away from him during that time, going home only to make Zachary dinner, tuck him into bed and then drive back to Aurora to sleep in Eli’s room. Those weeks were exhausting, they said, describing the days as a blur. “I didn’t care when he came home as long as he came home,” Debbie said. When that day came, it was a bittersweet goodbye. Jennifer and Debbie had become close with their doctors and nurses, but they were grateful to come home as a family. Today, Eli lives at home in Castle Rock. He needs an oxygen tank and some medicine, but is overall a healthy baby, they said. “He’s just a happy kid. He’s just very comfy and likes to snuggle. He’d probably sleep through the night if we let him,” Jennifer said, explaining they must feed him every four hours. “He’s got a very sweet disposition, which is incredible with everything he’s been through,” Debbie said. “You’d think he’d be more agitated.” A humbling experience The experience has left the women with a new outlook on life, they said. “For me, I’ve been totally changed and humbled,” Debbie said. “You get a much greater appreciation for priorities and for realizing that if you have your health and you have your kids that’s all that matters.” Jennifer agreed, and said in moving on, they are most looking forward to simply being a family. “Just watching our boys grow,” Jennifer said. “Watching them grow up.”

Court says parent of Douglas County student can sue district Lawsuit contends district violated Establishment Clause of the First Amendment STAFF REPORT

The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled June 20 that a woman identified in court documents as Jane Zoe can sue the Douglas County School District for an incident in which a teacher distributed materials for a Christian group. The case revolved around the promotion at two schools of a Fellowship of Christian Athletes mission trip and supply drive to aid people in Guatemala. The incident took place in 2014 at Highlands Ranch High School and Cougar Run Elementary, where a supply drive was held. In addition, a flier and email promoting the effort were sent to students and families at a

number of schools in the district. In January 2016, a district court said Zoe and three other plaintiffs lacked legal standing to sue. The appeals court disagreed. The plaintiffs in the case are identified in court documents as John Doe, Jack and Jill Roe — who have two children attending school in the district — and Jane Zoe, on behalf of her son, who was a student at Cougar Run in Highlands Ranch at the time. The lawsuit names as defendants the school district, the board of education, former Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen, Cougar Run Elementary Principal John Gutierrez and former HRHS Principal Jerry Goings. Fagen and Goings no longer work for the district. The American Humanist Association — a group that says it works to ensure the separation of church and state — filed the lawsuit on behalf of the plaintiffs on Oct. 22, 2014. The AHA said the district’s program was in violation of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of and

from religion. Zoe argued that her son was taunted for not believing in God after he declined to participate in the program, which the AHA said took place during school hours. The plaintiffs’ real names were not available. The appeals court agreed that the three other parents lacked standing because they were not directly affected by the program. “Although we have no doubt that plaintiffs are genuinely and fervently committed to righting what they view as an injustice, `a generalized grievance, no matter how sincere, is insufficient to confer standing,’ “ the opinion stated. “The sole exception is plaintiff Jane Zoe,” the opinion stated. “She contends that DCSD violated the Establishment Clause when school officials announced they were `partnering’ with a Christian student group and solicited her and her son for donations to a `mission trip.’ The district court held that because Zoe’s contacts with the challenged actions were not conspicuous or constant, she did not suf-

Cimarron teacher wins VFW state award Shannon Shelton honored for connecting students to ‘real people’ BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Colorado Veterans of Foreign Wars recently honored Cimarron Middle School eighth-grade history teacher Shannon Shelton as its Teacher of the Year for 2016-17. A ceremony honoring Shelton capped the VFW’s annual state convention, presented at the Eleganté Hotel and Convention Center in Colorado Springs from June 14-17. “I’m just honored to be able to accept this on behalf of the true heroes of our country,” said Castle Rock resident Shelton. “Their sacrifices and courage are what allow me to be able to teach.” Shelton Shelton said she enjoys teaching history because it connects her students to “the real people” they read about in textbooks. “Their struggles were the same,” she said. “They’re just like them.” Her students at the Parker school have successfully submitted the biographies of two veterans to the Library of Congress for the Veterans History Project, involving extensive interviews, research and sound and video production. Shelton’s students also organize Cimarron’s annual Veterans Day cer-

emony and participate in the annual 9/11 stair climb at Red Rocks, among other community service projects they carry out through the school year. Shelton was one of several teachers who competed first for the Parker VFW’s award before advancing to the district and state competitions. Parker VFW Post 4266 selected Shelton and awarded Shelton a certificate and cash award, as well as a check for Cimarron Middle School, on June 1. The VFW began the contest in 1999 as a way to identify and recognize America’s best educators. The VFW annually evaluates candidates based on their teaching of citizenship, American history and national traditions. Elementary, middle and high school teachers are nominated by fellow teachers, students, supervisors or other interested individuals. First-place winners from each state in each grade level are now entered in the National Smart/Maher VFW National Citizenship Education Teacher Award competition. Each of the those winners will receive $1,000 for professional development, $1,000 for their school and an all-expense paid trip to the VFW National Convention in July. Shelton said she’s not concerned about winning the national award, she just wants to continue the work of connecting her students to history. “For them to be able to hear the story of someone who liberated a concentration camp at the age of 18,” she said. “It’s a way of letting these kids know they are capable of great things.”

fer an injury for standing purposes.” Zoe is seeking “nominal damages,” according to court documents. According to the Cornell University Legal Information Institute, this is a term used when a judge or jury finds in favor of one party to a lawsuit, often because a law requires them to do so, but concludes that no real harm was done and therefore awards a very small amount of money. “The 10th Circuit issued a procedural ruling that one of our parents can try again to bring her lawsuit in the trial court. It was not a ruling on the merits, and no judgment has been issued against the school district,” the Douglas County School District said in an emailed statement. “We take very seriously the obligations imposed on us by the First Amendment, and continue to examine the court’s opinion and its consequences. We stand by our students who choose to freely exercise their religious rights, but are aware of the duties imposed on the school district and its employees by the Constitution’s Establishment Clause.”

Bobcats spotted in Highlands Ranch Sightings of the predators have caused mixed reactions BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Residents are having mixed feelings about recent bobcat sightings in Highlands Ranch. About two weeks ago, Kathy Miller was sitting on the back patio of her home in Timberline Ridge, a neighborhood off Dad Clark Drive, near South Broadway and C-470, when she spotted a 2 1/2-foot bobcat slinking along the top of her 6-foot fence. “It was not an oversized cat, that’s for sure,” Miller said. “He was walking along the fence like he owned the property.” Stephanie Morris first spotted a 2-foot, 25-pound bobcat near Sandcreek Elementary over Mother’s Day weekend. More than anything, she’s excited to see wildlife coexisting with humans. “There is a Highlands ranch mentality that we don’t want them here because they are predators,” Morris said. “We need to recognize that it’s a balance.” Residents and wildlife experts agree that bobcats are new to the community. Reports of sightings have

A photo taken by resident Tom Redd of a bobcat in Highlands Ranch. been made to the Highlands Ranch Metro District and Colorado Parks and Wildlife in the past six months, according to Justin Olson, district wildlife manager of Colorado Parks and Wildlife. Prior to that, Olson, who has covered the region from Hampden to south Castle Rock since 2011, hasn’t received any reports of the animal in Highlands Ranch. Nor has Miller, who has lived in Highlands Ranch for 25 years. Or Morris, who has been in the community for 20 years. Bobcats are elusive predators that prey at night and in early hours of the morning. They most likely travel to

2017

Highlands Ranch from less-developed areas of Douglas County, such as the rolling hills of Castle Pines and Sedalia, for habitat and prey, Olson said. Highlands Ranch is abundant in open space, parks and small wildlife, including rabbits, squirrels, mice and rodents. Similar to coyotes and foxes, bobcats are predators, which is alarming to some residents. “It’s a shock for one that we could have a predator in a neighborhood that is populated,” Miller said. But, Olson reiterated that bobcats are elusive animals and are skittish around humans. They dwell in natural

and manmade dens and tend to come out at dusk and dawn. Bobcats don’t exhibit some of the bold behaviors of coyotes, Olson said. According to the Humane Society of the United States, some coyotes in urban areas have lost their fear of humans and may approach people or come closer to homes. Last fall, on a Highlands Ranch Facebook page, several residents posted about coyote attacks on small dogs. “Bobcats tend to be less problematic with domestic animals because they are not generally around,” Olson said. “They don’t generally get involved with attacks of that nature.” Nevertheless, any wildlife predator has the potential to be unpredictable, he said. Residents should always practice responsible pet ownership, including supervising pets and leashing dogs — especially in areas like the Backcountry or open space. Residents should refrain from allowing their pets to interact with wildlife and refrain from feeding wildlife. If a person encounters a bobcat, he or she should look big, make noise and be intimidating. For a period of time, the bobcat returned to Morris’ fence every night. The animal would sometimes sit there for two hours, but it never approached Morris’ small dog or family, she said. “The biggest message is that we coexist with all of this amazing wildlife that really isn’t a threat,” Morris said.

The Niobrara formation that covers the northeastern part of Colorado has attracted new gas and oil exploration in the northwestern portion of Elbert County. Signing for the county manager, County Commissioner Danny Willcox submitted a contract to Bison Oil and Gas on June 21 that will lease the county’s mineral rights to the company. The county commissioners have assumed the responsibilities of the county manager due to the resignation of Ed Ehmann. Bison will pay Elbert County $90,000 for three-year prospecting and mineral rights over 30 net mineral acres that extend one mile south of the northern border of Elbert County and up to six miles east of the western border.

‘Most leases that are signed are never drilled.’ Grant Thayer, Elbert County commissioner

In a county that is hurting for funds, the contract could be a precursor to future opportunities and provide revenue for much-needed road repair and improvements in the county, officials believe. According to Willcox, Bison requires a confidentiality agreement in most of its contracts, but as the commissioners contemplated the SEE DRILLING, P14

In a world of too many soulless salons, old-fashioned barber makes the cut QUIET DESPERATION

Craig Marshall Smith

A

lfredo Hidalgo has been cutting my hair since 1977. I have been unfaithful to him, because of weather or location, fewer than 10 times. Alfred cut my hair when it was over my ears and the color of Masonite, when the Grays started to move in, and when the Grays completely took over the block. Across 40 years, I have heard about his loving marriage, his accomplished children, his devotion to fishing, his days at West High School, where he was class president and a star athlete, memories of mouthwatering Rockybilt hamburgers, and riding his bicycle from the area that is now the

Auraria Higher Education Center to Red Rocks — something I find hard to believe. I asked Alfred what his job title is, and he said, “hairstylist.” No one went to a hairstylist in the 1950s or 1960s, but by the 1970s, men were ready for stylists and salons. Barbershops started to disappear. There are still some barbershops all over the country, in small towns primarily, where you sit and wait for Floyd. However, there are over 4,100 Great Clips in the United States, to go along with a slew of other salons that can get the job done, one way or another, in under 10 minutes. Alfred owns and manages The Hair-Porte.

If you call during working hours, you will speak directly with Alfred, or one of the other five stylists. If you call after hours, you won’t get an answering service. His appointment book is all handwritten, and he doesn’t keep track of your birthday. That means you won’t get a computer-generated birthday card that makes you feel about as special as a used saltine. One of the hair salon chains assigns your head a couple of numbers. I think my top is a 4 and my sides are a 5. A No. 4 attachment goes on the clipper and buzz, buzz, buzz. Then a No. 5, and buzz, buzz, buzz. It’s an SEE SMITH, P13

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Commissioners let us down At the meeting June 14, only one of three Douglas County commissioners voted to allow the county’s citizens to decide this November whether to re-purpose part of the county’s 1 percent sales tax for roads and bridges, including widening the dangerous crash-prone two-lane section of I-25 from Castle Rock to Monument. In a stunning failure of democracy, Commissioners Partridge and Weaver denied the voters voicing their will. Following Commissioner Lora Thomas’ short, factual explanation of her proposal, a packed hearing room of citizens, many of whom had signed up to speak, sat through 2½ hours of the sheriff ’s office’s self-congratulatory presentation detailing all the

projects other than the justice center that this “justice center tax” has funded. In the over 22 years since the 1 percent sales tax was passed by DougCo voters, the sheriff ’s department has received $360 million from the tax (43 percent). The aim was obviously a war of attrition. And it worked. By 8:30 p.m., when citizens were finally called to testify, most had left in frustration to attend to children or dinner. More than 100,000 new DougCo citizens living here since JCT was last revisited have been denied a vote on this important issue by two of their own commissioners. Apparently, only Commissioner Thomas believes in the peoples’ will. Joy Overbeck Parker

ome people use the words happiness and joy interchangeably and do not see much of a difference between WINNING the two. For WORDS me, joy is happiness taken to a whole new level. As I looked up the actual definitions of both words, I did Michael Norton see that the definitions were very close. Happiness is defined as “the state of being happy.” Joy is defined as “a feeling of great pleasure and happiness.” Some of the synonyms of happiness included: pleasure, contentment, satisfaction. These words are good, but when you put them up against the synonyms of joy, they seem a little softer. Some of the synonyms of joy include jubilation, exultation, rejoicing and bliss. So as much as I would like to be in that state of happiness, what I really want is to live with the feeling of joy. I know you picked up on

the words in each definition, where happiness is a “state” and joy is a “feeling.” So it’s a great goal to want to live in a state of being happy, or a state of contentment or satisfaction. I think my stretch goal is to live with that feeling of exultation, bliss, jubilation and rejoicing, I want to fall in love with joy. Sadly, we fall out of love with things and people all too often. But then we hear stories of people who have found their love again and saved a marriage. And many times, it’s because they no longer settled for contentment and satisfaction, they went deeper and found the things, places and activities that brought them joy. Of course, there are many other things people do to re-ignite their fire, and find each other again. I am certain that really good counselors or pastors and close family and friends help too. As I considered writing this column I thought about my own life and the areas of my life where I was satisfied, content, and basically happy. And then I looked at

Pageant-bashing shows lack of true knowledge

D

GUEST COLUMN

ear Mr. Smith, My name is Stacey James, and I am currently Mrs. Parker Days. I read your recent column, “Nothing against beauty, but we could do without the pageants,” and I wanted to take a moment and clear up some of the issues you have with the pageant world and your very negative views on this subject. And since your column was your opinion, this is mine. In this day and age, we have become a participation ribbon nation, where everyone wins a prize for simply showing up. In school, you will have children who work for months on a science project to receive the same prize and recognition as the child who finished the night before. Why strive for greatness, when merit and competition are no longer tolerated? In the pageant world, I have personally witnessed some of the most educated, beautiful and talented women push themselves to achieve higher goals and strive to do more in the world. Competition is completely acceptable if you are a man wearing a jersey, scoring points against the opposing team. Male fitness, sports, and many other male-related competitions are not deemed offensive. Yet, an empowered, educated, talented and beautiful woman is? I don’t have any issues with sports

or competition, but how is one better than the other? I think competition is a way to push ourselves to greater heights. For me personally, I lost a significant amount of weight and the thought of entering pageants had me striving to achieve Stacey James more than I ever thought was possible. Pageants have taught me a great deal about not only how I can make a difference in my own life, but how I can make a difference for others and give back to my community. In 2016, Mrs. Colorado collected 50,000 pairs of socks for the homeless in Colorado during her reign. Last Thanksgiving in Parker, we donated more than 300 turkeys to military and their families. These women use this opportunity and voice to bring awareness to many charities and causes such as donating money and time to Children’s Hospital Colorado, autism, military, domestic violence, breast cancer, sex trafficking, Alzheimer’s and many other causes. These women rally together to raise funds and make a huge difference in their communities. It’s incredible what

in love with joy again first myself, and hope that it becomes contagious. So how about you? Are you in a good place, in a state of being happy, content and satisfied? Or would you also like to fall in love again with joy? Either way I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@ gmail.com. And when we move into exuberance, jubilation, rejoicing, exultation and bliss it really will be a better than good week.

what it could mean if I elevated my performance, my attitude, and even my heart, and could I elevate joy in any one of those areas. Who are the people in my life that bring happiness to my world and who are the people who truly bring me joy? And then who are the people that I bring happiness to and who might think of me as someone who brings them joy? And what can I do to change their perception, assuming I had to. And I settled on the fact that I need to fall

induction haircut. Alfred went to barber college and beauty school. I looked at him quizzically when he said “beauty school,” and he explained that’s where a student learns how to color hair, and it’s where a student learns how to work on wigs and hairpieces. He said a wig or hairpiece customer would come in and be taken to a back room, behind a curtain. The customer would sit in one chair, and the wig or hairpiece would sit in another chair. (That’s not entirely true, but that’s how I pictured it.)

Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

Your car was built by a robot, but a robot is never going to cut your hair. Alfred uses electric trimmers and clippers, just like the ones he used in 1977. Shakespeare said, “There’s many a man has more hair than wit.” Alfred never hands you a calendar, a coupon, or a comb with his name on it. He does his job, day after day, the way jobs used to be done. I would have found somewhere else to go to a long time ago, if all I wanted was a haircut. That should tell you something. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast.net.

these women do, and I could not be prouder to be part of the pageantry world. The young women who are actively competing in pageants are not the victims that you make them out to be. These young women are active members in the communities and learn life skills that help them excel in college interviews, organize school groups and become better prepared for their futures. Our Miss Parker Days Teen has over 300 volunteer hours in the last couple of years and is launching her platform, Volunteers@Heart, to encourage the community in her volunteer efforts. Even my own daughter is a pageant coach and said, “I have seen pageants be a saving grace for young women and teens that have been through abuse, bullying, depression and many bad situations at home. It is an outlet for

some girls and motivates them to reach for more in life.” My hope is that when little girls see these competitions, they view these women as role models who serve their communities, stay on the right path, further their education and let their beauty shine from the inside out. I hope these women and young women, much like local athletes, will be a source of inspiration for our children. Mr. Smith, for these women, it’s not about the sash, and it’s not about the beauty, it’s about supporting the community and having a voice to do so. These women are truly as beautiful inside as they are on the outside. Next time you see a girl wearing a sash, ask her how many volunteer hours she has. It may change your perspective. Respectfully, Stacey James

terms of the lease contract, they determined this was not an appropriate stipulation to include as the land being used is owned by the county. Commissioner Grant Thayer called the company to ask if they could strike the standard confidentiality section of the contract, to which Bison agreed. The contract could potentially be extended another two years “if they actually find something,” said Commissioner Chris Richardson.

If that happens, the rate for leasing the property rights would go up and a lease bonus would be enacted, where the county would also receive royalties from the drilling. The area covers three miles of County Road 194 and two miles of Delbert Road. One reason for going forward with the contract is to determine how many actual mineral acres the county owns, as this initial contract with Bison covers a small part of the 1,800 miles of county roads in Elbert County. Thayer, who has more than 40 years of experience in the oil and gas industry, shared his perspective about the implications of sign-

Based on the history of drilling in Arapahoe and Weld counties in the Niobrara formation, “we would expect that Bison Oil will drill a horizontal well,” Thayer said. “The way I take this, with the Westcreek wind farm in southeast Elbert and with Bison putting together lease blocks like this,” Thayer said, “it says that optimism is returning to economic activity in the county.”

Congressman joins effort to find officer who went missing in Russia Highlands Ranch resident Steven Beare, a Littleton police officer, was on a solo ascent BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman has joined the effort to help find a Littleton police officer who went missing in mid-June while mountain climbing in Russia. Coffman met with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak in Washington, D.C., on June 23 to discuss the deployment of specialized mountain search-and-rescue teams and Russian military helicopters in the search for Highlands Ranch resident Steven Beare. “I received assurances that his government will do everything possible in the search for Steven Beare,” Coffman said in a news release. “My office will continue working closely with the Russian embassy in Washington, D.C., and the U.S. embassy in Moscow to resolve this matter and bring Steven home...” Two days earlier, Coffman wrote

a letter to Kislyak, also sent to U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, asking that Russia lend any and all aid available to efforts underway to locate Beare. Coffman’s 6th Congressional District includes Littleton and Highlands Ranch, among other areas. Beare, 32, was ascending his first solo climb on Mount Elbrus, the highest mountain in Russia at 18,510 feet, when a whiteout blizzard hit, according to Beare his wife, Olivia Beare, who last spoke to him when he first arrived in Russia on June 12. She describes her husband as an adventurer — he has climbed 25 fourteneers in Colorado and Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa, among other difficult treks. “He thinks he is invincible,” Olivia said on June 21, watching their 20-month-old son play on the porch of their home. “I hope he is thinking that now so he makes it home.” Almost a week after Beare, a Colorado National Guardsman, was confirmed missing, Olivia is pleading for help in organizing a searchand-rescue team. “He was supposed to be back (in Moscow) by June 16,” she said. “He

had a Monday night flight out of Moscow.” Olivia and Beare were high school sweethearts and they recently moved to Highlands Ranch from Roxborough. She is 11 weeks pregnant with their second child. Beare served as a U.S. Army scout from 2007-12, during which he looked after others, his wife said. “The words I always use to describe him are ‘extremely loyal’ and ‘dependable,’ “ Olivia said. Beare’s trek up Mount Elbrus was supposed to take eight hours. He was reported missing when he did not check in at his tent, in which his sleeping bag, passport and money were left. A witness who was traversing the mountain and supposedly saw Beare said that he continued to ascend to the top amid a whiteout blizzard, his wife said. Olivia is now working with professional climber Don Bowie, of Canada, to organize a private search team. Russia’s search-andrescue team isn’t as aggressive because of the country’s laws and regulations, she said, adding that it stopped searching on June 18. She is hopeful the private search led by Bowie will begin before June 24, the date cloudy weather is supposed to clear. Currently in France,

Bowie is waiting for his visa to be processed, she said. To help pay for a private helicopter — which costs $2,500 an hour — for Bowie and his team of highly trained and experienced mountain climbers and rescuers, Colorado Police Officers Foundation has created a PayPal account at coloradopolicefoundation.org/search-forsteven The police officers foundation describes Beare as an avid climber whose goal is to climb the seven highest summits in the world — which include Mount Elbrus. “Time is of the essence and it is crucial to put the resources in place to start this search quickly,” the Colorado Police Officers Foundation’s website says. “The effort to get this going is an expensive undertaking.” The Littleton Police Department issued a statement in which it asked people to keep Beare and his family in their thoughts and prayers and to donate to the Colorado Police Officers Foundation. “When circumstances appear hopeless, you fight through and win, no matter what,” Littleton Police Chief Doug Stephens said. “That’s what cops do and I am confident that Steven is doing that now.”

LIFE A look at wedding traditions

Vows and tradition vary between religions

reversible,” Arnold said. “What has just happened can’t be undone.”

BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

T

he joining of two people in matrimony calls for many different traditions depending on the religion the couple is rooted in. Most religions recognize a formal assertion of marriage, but there is a difference in how verbal the couple themselves are in making the vows. While Western cultures tend to have spoken vows between the couple, many other religions rely on ceremonial and symbolic gestures. Typical Christian weddings, including Catholic, Protestant, Episcopal, Lutheran and Methodist, use what most people see as traditional wedding vows — the couple promises to honor and cherish each other as well as commit to each other through good times and bad. They vow to never part until death, “according to God’s holy ordinance.” “You can look at the language of the traditional vows and there is something powerful being said,” said Rev. Kevin Burke, a professor of theology at Regis University and a Catholic priest. But Burke also said sometimes those vows are romanticized. “`Til death do us part,’ people sometimes say those words because they want the tradition,” Burke said. “They really want those vows to be true, but they’re also realistic to know that life is hard and it’s not always going to work out that way.” Wedding vows are often influenced by romantic poets and the transcendentalists, Burke said, adding that there’s something important about the philosophy in that movement. “But there’s a lot of that

romantic tradition and a lot of time it confuses vows with romantic visions and dreams,” Burke said. “Happily every after becomes a tag line.” As a Catholic theologian, Burke said expression at a wedding is important, but what is being expressed becomes the most important. “I am really interested in how weddings express a deep Biblical vision,” he added. Burke said one of his favorite Biblical readings was when a couple chose to share the story Moses and the burning bush during their wedding mass. When he asked why, the couple said they wanted an image of what’s going on in them as they approach their wedding. “What a great image,” Burke said. “A bush that’s on fire but it’s not being consumed. And isn’t that like the experience of falling in love and it doesn’t burn out but it actually renews itself. I was blown away. It was so beautiful.” But the thing Burke said he was struck by in this was that the story of Moses and the burning bush is a foundational text in the Jewish religion. He said it’s a reminder that the Christian religion is rooted in

Judaism and that God is not sensitive to guilt but the pain of his people.

But unlike a Christian wedding, a Jewish ceremony is not centered around the exchange of vows. It is about the contract. A Jewish wedding is historically separated into two ceremonies that have been combined into one in modern times. The first ceremony, called the Kiddushin, is the betrothal. It includes the contract that the groom writes to the bride. During the ceremony, the contract is given to the woman and it becomes her property. Russell Arnold, associate professor of religious studies at Regis University, said that in modern Jewish weddings, this can look like vows, with the groom speaking to the bride. Another key part of the first ceremony is the exchange of property, which is usually a ring. Historically it is only given to the bride, however, Arnold said modern weddings now do exchanges in both directions.

“When the ring is offered, it’s placed on the right index finger,” Arnold said. “The idea is that the right index is the most direct line to the heart. It doesn’t stay there, but in the ceremony that’s where it’s placed.” That, Arnold said, is the seal of the contract. The second half of the ceremony is the actual joining — the seven blessings. Arnold said there are two things about a Jewish wedding that are culturally prominent: the four-post canopy and the breaking of the glass. “The posts with a clothe cover creates a symbolic first home,” Arnold said. “But it’s open on all sides, like Abraham’s tent in the Bible.” The breaking of the glass is a sign of the wedding. “The most significant meaning is that it’s ir-

Another religion that focuses on actions more than words is Hinduism. Generally Hindu weddings last three to five days in India. But in the United States, they are often been shortened to one day, said Mohan Sagar, member of the religious committee at the Sri Venkateswara Swamy Temple of Colorado in Castle Rock. First, the bride and groom must be formally accepted into the families. Next, there is the henna body-painting ritual. The bride and her female attendants and family members get their hands and feet painted with red henna, which represents purity and sacredness. Sagar said this is a popular aspect of Hindu weddings because it looks very beautiful. The actual wedding ceremony varies depending on the region of the family. But Sagar said they all include the grooms making a vow to the father of the bride that SEE TRADITIONS, P17

he will treat her better than how she was raised. They vow to never leave her, to always seek her and support her until death. If the father agrees, the groom typically ties a pendant around the brides neck indicated that he is now married. “The bride is not viewed as property, the bride is viewed as a gift,” Sagar said. “To give a daughter away is the ultimate act of selflessness. If you are to do that in life, you are assured a place in heaven.”

One wedding ritual where there is no promises to death is in the neopagan handfasting ceremony.

Handfasting is an ancient tradition where two people promise themselves to each other for a year and a day. They can also be legal if the couple chooses. If that works out, they can renew each year and if it doesn’t, they can do a hardparting. “I find handfastings to be a little more healthy in looking at relationships because it’s not setting up you’re going to get married until you’re dead,” said Dr. Amy Reed, who goes by the name Andarta in the pagan community, where she is a priestess in the Druid spiritual path. The Druid path is modeled on ancient Celtic religion and one of the three most prevalent pagan paths in Colorado, Andarta said. The other two, she said are Nordic and Wicca. “There is a huge pagan community in Colorado,” Andarta said, adding that modern paganism is one of the fastest growing religions. “Colorado has a lot of diversity and it is very nature based. A lot of people are very nature oriented here and drawn to paganism because of that.”

Summer party The Denver Lyric Opera Guild, which has members throughout the metro area, will have its annual Summer Party on July 11 (program: 11 a.m.; lunch, noon) at Mount Vernon Country Club, 24933 Club House Circle, Golden.

All Colorado Show The annual Western Welcome Week exhibit at the Depot Art Gallery, the All Colorado Show, at 2069 W. Powers Ave., Littleton, has a call to artists through July 7. See the entry form on CallForEntry.org.

She said she also thinks that current television shows and people being dissatisfied with current mainstream religions are pushing people toward a pagan path. The handfasting ceremonies vary for each path and each couple. It depends on if they are a naturebased couple or worship a specific god or goddess. Typically guests at the ceremony cast a circle and call on the four corners, east, west, north and south. Then the priestess invites in the gods and then calls on any ancestors. From there, Andarta said its just like any other wedding where the couple promises themselves to each other. A cord is wrapped around the couples hands symbolizing that they are joined and traditionally the couple will jump over a broom. “It all depends on their specific path and their guests,” Andarta said of the rituals. “Some pagans don’t want to to be a full-blown ritual because it may freak out their grandma, who is Southern baptist.”

‘It’s a way of keeping Darrell’s memory alive’ Foundation, local family team up for fundraising golf tournament

Since Darrell Pridemore and his brothers, Vince, Al, and Dwight, established their auto care franchises in the Douglas County area in 2005, they’ve been regular players and sponsors for the Debbie Jackson Memorial Scholarship Foundation’s annual golf tournament. Since Darrell’s death from cancer last year, his brothers, and the foundation, decided to join forces. “As a family, we could usually only get together to go golfing, so we tried to play in the tournaments,” said Al Pridemore, owner of Pride Auto in Parker. Joining the foundation is “a way of keeping Darrell’s memory alive … It seemed like a natural fit.” The Pridemores wanted to start a nonprofit to honor their brother’s memory, and contacted Scott Jackson, who founded the Debbie Jackson scholarship 15 years ago to honor his sister Debbie’s memory. “Their goals and reasons were almost identical,” Jackson said. “In the back of my mind, I thought, ‘We’re competing.’” At Jackson’s suggestion, the foundation voted unanimously to expand its board from seven to 10 members in November 2016, making room for Al, Dwight and Vince, and changing the nonprofit’s name to the Debbie Jackson and Darrell Pridemore Memorial Scholarship Foundation. On July 28 the organization will host a fundraising golf tournament, the 15th for Jackson and the first for the Pridemore brothers, to support scholarships for three high school seniors in Douglas County. Three seniors will be awarded $4,000, based on their grades, service to the community and an essay detailing hardships they’ve experienced. Part of joining the foundation for the Pridemores has been evaluating the essays, a duty Al described as a grounding experience.

After her father’s death, the foundation board extended her award to $4,000 over four years, rather than the typical one-time award, allowing her to enroll at the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs where she’s majoring in biology. “There were a lot of trials and tribulations with my father’s death,” she said, “but the scholarship has

‘Annie’ gives audience chance to see red in downtown Denver Beloved musical first ran on Broadway 40 years ago BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

That optimistic little red-headed girl, Annie, part of our cultural fabric since Harold Gray’s popular comic strip started in the 1920s, will once more overcome the difficulties of life as an orphan in the Depression Era this summer — in Phamaly Theatre Company’s production of the musical “Annie” at the Denver Performing Arts Complex. The popular, family-friendly piece by Thomas Meehan, Charles Strouse and Martin Charmin first appeared on Broadway in 1977 and has been charming audiences across the nation and around the world since then. While local theater companies find new audiences for it every-so-many years, there was a Broadway revival in 2013 and one this year in London’s West End. With a cast of 36, directed by Regan Linton, Phamaly’s current artistic director, and past AD Steve Wilson (now AD at Mizel Arts and Cultural Center), music direction by David Nehls and Trent Hines and choreography

by Debbie Stark and Ronnie Gallup, the production will run from July 15 to Aug. 6 at the Stage Theatre in the Denver Performing Arts Complex. Phamaly casts its productions with people who live with disabilities — both physical and emotional — and who want to participate in professional performances. Gough Even the pair of canine actors who alternate as Sandy, Annie’s stray dog companion, conform: Daisy is an amputee lab mix and Sonny, a small mix who lost his eyes to glaucoma. (The last time Phamaly had a canine actor was in “The Wiz” — Barrett which featured Leonard Barrett making his entrance on stilts as the lead.) The lead role of Annie will be played by Maria Ciobanu, while veteran performer/jazz singer Leonard Barrett will play Daddy Warbucks, the lonely millionaire who eventually adopts our girl. Longtime Phamaly member Jenna Bainbridge, originally from Douglas County, who has gone on to a professional career from her start with the company, will be Grace, Warbucks’ secretary. (She recently

In the art trade, exhibit is tied to actual art trade Lone Tree show grew out of serial creation project BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Lone Tree’s Art Commission has selected works by Colorado abstract impressionist painter Doug Kacena for the next Commissioners’ Choice exhibit, which will nun through Sept. 11 at the Lone Tree Arts Center. The exhibit, named “Redeveloped,” will include recent works by Kacena, including a selection of pieces from Kacena’s “Crossover” exhibit last year at the Mike Wright Gallery in Denver, which stirred widespread comment. For the “Crossover” exhibit, Kacena invited 12 well-known Denver contemporary realist painters to give him finished canvases to do as he would with them. He hoped it would provide a way to “bridge the divide” between abstract/conceptual artists and representational/ traditional artists — “conflicting aesthetics.” In return, he surrendered his own canvases for a corresponding treatment. (Some collectors were horrified as paint-

In speaking about the project, Kacena said “There are no rules. How do you re-conceptualize someone else’s work? It’s a chance for us all to stretch our boundaries, to explore the similarities between our styles and confront deeply rooted ideas about what is, and what isn’t, art.” Colorado Public Television is producing a documentary film about Kacena’s “Crossover” project.

South area cast members are Leonard Barrett and Lisa Gough of Littleton and Lucy Roucis, of Englewood, whose Phamaly membership

goes back many years. Gough, 48, who is new this year, said she overheard the previous artistic director’s wife talking about Phamaly at a restaurant and received an enthusiastic “yes” when she “timidly asked” if she might join. She says she has not acted onstage since grade school days, although she attended CU-Denver as a vocal performance major. She has modeled and been a vocalist, but suffered from a brain injury and the trauma of childhood sexual abuse. “I am emotionally retarded,” she said. An 80-pound German shepherd named Angel is her service dog, an alpha-dog who keeps Gough connected as she finds a family in Phamaly, volunteering as well as performing. “I just sometimes don’t have a filter … Whatever life throws at you, there are always people who see you for who you are,” she concluded in a June phone call.

Celebrating 20 years of historical preservation 5 things to know BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Castle Rock Historical Society and Museum is a nonprofit organization that chronicles and preserves the history of the town. Through exhibits at its downtown museum to year-round programming, the historical society seeks to serve the public. This year, the society celebrates the 20th anniversary of the museum’s opening. Here are five things to know about the organization:

A history lesson The Castle Rock Historical Society was formed in 1991 by a group of citizens who wanted to highlight and preserve the history of Castle Rock. The organization began by hosting tours of historic neighborhoods, and eventually earned its status as a 501(c) (3) nonprofit. In 1997, the society opened the Castle Rock Museum in a historic railroad depot restored with the help of a Colorado State Historical Fund grant, plus donations from the Town of Castle Rock and local businesses. The society continues to operate the museum at 420 Elbert St. in Castle Rock.

Year-round programming For programming, the historical society offers a free monthly lecture featuring a different historical topic and speaker at each event, in addition to various historical tours offered throughout the year. Tours have included trolley and bus rides through historic Castle Rock and historic downtown Denver. More recently, the historical society took approximately 45 people to one of Castle Rock’s shuttered rhyolite quarries, typically closed to the public, vice president Kathleen Cooledge said. A self-guided tour is available for residents and visitors through a series of QR codes that are posted on historic buildings throughout downtown. Information on the QR code sites is available at the museum.

20th anniversary The Castle Rock Historical Society is planning a parade to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the museum’s opening. The event is set for 3 p.m. Sept. 16 with an open house to follow at the museum from 4 to 7 p.m., Cooledge said. The parade will be historically themed and feature floats such as local Girl and Boy Scout troops modeling historic uniforms. Historic motorcycles from World War I will also be driven throughout the parade to showcase aspects of the World War I exhibit, Cooledge said.

What the historical society offers Through its museum, the historical society offers permanent and temporary exhibits. The permanent features include an exhibit about rhyolite, the stone that was mined and quarried in Castle Rock from 1872 until 1906, and used to build well-known historic buildings in town. The museum also has a permanent display about the Continental Divide Raceway, formerly one of the premier racetracks in America that was located south of Castle Rock until it closed in 1983. The current temporary exhibit is focused on World War I, which debuted in time for the 100th anniversary of the Unites States’ involvement in World War I.

Historical society membership Those interested in becoming members of the Castle Rock Historical Society can find more information on the website, castlerockhistoricalsociety.org, where new members can sign up for various plans such as the individual, family or lifetime memberships. Membership fees provide financial support to the Castle Rock Historical Society and Museum, Cooledge said. The fees are due annually from the date when individuals enroll in the program. More information is also available at the museum, which is open Wednesday through Friday from noon until 5 p.m., and on Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Mechanics of nature are wonder to behold How animals survive challenges of life is explored at Denver museum BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Family members of all ages will be fascinated to learn how animals are engineered to survive in our world despite ongoing challenges. “Nature’s

IF YOU GO THE DENVER MUSEUM OF NATURE & SCIENCE is located at 2001 Colorado Blvd., Denver. For information about hours and tickets, see dmns.org/NAM or call 303-370-6000. Amazing Machines” opened June 16 at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science and will continue through New Year’s Day of 2018. Adaptation is considered from the very large (how can a giraffe’s heart pump blood up its long neck to its brain?) to tiny (how can insects fly

with no lungs?) to speed (how can a cheetah run so fast?). The biomechanics of how animals and plants survive and adapt to extremely difficult conditions brings stories and examples from around the world and offers explanations in English and Spanish about their “biological pipes, pumps, insulation, motors and springs,” ability to compete for food, endure extreme temperatures, withstand external pressures such as wind, water and gravity … Hands-on models and activities will focus on pumping blood, flying, speed, models of animal hearts, adaptation to temperature and more things one wonders about … An added feature — while they last

— is a set of trading cards featuring six different animals from the exhibition, with facts and suggested activities to try at home. There will be a new card each month, which invites return visits. Dr. Garth Spellman, the museum’s curator of ornithology and curatorial advisor for the exhibit, said, “Life on Earth is constantly struggling to counter natural physical forces that are trying to drag us down. The exhibition reveals a myriad of incredible adaptations animals have evolved to combat nature’s assault.” The exhibit was developed by Chicago’s Field Museum in partnership with the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. Cheetahs are the world’s fastest land animal. A new exhibit, “Nature’s Amazing Machines,” explores their mechanics as well as those of many other remarkable creatures at the Denver Museum of Nature and science until Jan. 1, 2018.

High school theater achievements noted with awards presentation

It’s Almost Here!

The Drama Department at Valor Christian High School produce “Pippin” during the school year and won top 2017 Bobby G award as Outstanding Overall Production of a Musical. Senior Elleon Dobias was named for Outstanding Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role. COURTESY PHOTO

New York is next stop for Valor performer honored for acting skill BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The fifth annual Bobby G Awards, which recognize Colorado high schools’ winning musical theater productions, designated Valor Christian High School senior Elleon Dobias as outstanding actress in a competition between 42 Colorado High Schools — and Valor’s production of “Pippin” was named outstanding musical, according to Denver Center for the Performing Arts journalist John Moore. With 19 awards given out to schools across the state, Lakewood High School led with a total of four for its production of “Sweeney Todd.” The awards honor the late Robert Garner, who created Denver Center Attractions in 1979 — the series of touring Broadway shows that stream through the busy Denver Center each year. The Broadway presenter was engaged by the late Donald Sewall, who founded the Denver Center for

Performing Arts. Lakewood High School led the total of 19 state awards with four for its production of “Sweeney Todd.” Austin Hand of Fossil Ridge High School in Fort Collins was named outstanding actor for his performance as Gomez Addams in “The Addams Family.” The awards result from a yearlong process involving a team of professional adjudicators who attend performances at schools. The top five scoring individual students then audition for a professional panel. Dobias and Hand will go to New York next month for “The Jimmys,” which are national high school theater awards. After 10 days of intensive training with professional actors, they will perform in a fully staged one-night performance at the Minsky Theatre, according to Moore. Dobias said that in her freshman year, only 10 tried out for the private school’s first production, and this year more than 60 auditioned. Actor Gene Gillette, a former Denver resident, in town touring in “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time,” presented two awards.

Stubbings, Givin noted for skills on diamond Legend, Rock Canyon athletes achieved impressive numbers BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Colorado Mesa has landed a polished hitter who can hit to all fields, but Xavier doesn’t know yet what it is getting. Legend High School’s Jordan Stubbings, named the 2017 Colorado Community Media South Metro SOUTH METRO Baseball Player ATHLETES of the year, has OF THE YEAR signed to play at Colorado Mesa. Matt Givin of Rock Canyon High School will be joining his brother Chris at Xavier, but the Musketeers now have the pleasant task of figuring out how to use him. Givin is a 6-foot-3 infielder who turned into a touted pitcher this spring and has been tabbed as the 2017 Colorado Community Media South Metro Pitcher of the Year. “Matt Givin for me was not only the top pitcher in the Continental League, but the best pitcher in the state,” said Rock Canyon coach Tyler Munro.

“Matt originally committed to Xavier to play infield alongside his brother Chris, but he went from 84 mph last season and summer to throwing as hard as 94 mph this spring. “This increased velocity was a combination of increased strength, conditioning and improved mechanics. Matt also showed three-plus pitches with a fastball that he would be able to

hold to 89 mph in the seventh inning, plus a slurve and a change-up that he developed halfway through the season. Matt has a good feel for pitching, has the three pitches to be an effective starter and will only be adding velocity as he fills out.” Givin led the league in hitting with a .532 average and an on-base percentage of .638 as mostly a first baseman when

not pitching. However, it was on the mound where he received more applause. He went 5-1 with one save, had an earned run average of 1.48 in 52 innings pitched and 222 batters faced. He struck out 76 batters, which ranked third among Class 5A pitchers, and opposing batters had a .207 batting average against him. Stubbings, a repeat CCM South Metro Player of the Year, wanted to improve from his junior season and leaves Legend holding school career records in three seasons on the varsity for home runs (17), slugging percentage (.877), on-base percentage (.531), batting average (.456) and runs batted in (59). As a junior, he hit .500 with six homers, 32 RBIs and a .911 slugging percentage. Last spring Stubbings hit .526, with 10 homers, a 1.076 slugging percentage and 39 RBIs. He led the Continental League in each category except average and was second among 5A players in homers, slugging percentage and RBIs. “I had a good junior season,” said Stubbings. “I set a goal to break everything I did last season. I had a really good season. I really surprised myself and others” Mesa will be getting a 6-foot-3, 215-pound third baseman with the potential to hit for power. He had 41 hits as a senior and 20 of them went for extra bases.

me to become better,” said Peoples. “It took a lot of individual efforts from teammates to get me the ball to finish goals and have those assists. It all helped me to have the season I had this year. Finished goals came from practice, putting myself in position and getting the balls from my teammates. It’s something I’ve worked on over and over.” Peoples will continue playing next season at Regis University. “I do think Regis knows that they have an amazing lacrosse player coming to them next year,” said Silverman, “but they don’t know how much more Kyleigh will bring to that team. “The reason why Kyleigh is such a special player is because she is never just thinking about herself and she knows what it takes to be a part of a team. She is always working on her own skills but she is also constantly working on helping her teammates get better as well. Where she really shines is being a part of a team, motivating others, and just being a leader on and off the field.”

Castle View among 100 teams at Broncos 7-on-7 event BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Castle View team won its first game in a three-game round robin competition at the June 15 pool play during the Broncos 7-on-7 tournament at Denver All-City Stadium. However, the team was outscored in the other two games despite solid performances by the Sabercats players. “This 7-on-7 tournament is part of the work we are doing to establish the team leadership,” Sabercats Coach Dustin Pfeiffer said during the tournament. “As usual, we will have 20 to 25 seniors on our roster, and this is the time of the year the coaches are trying to figure out who will be the team leaders and so are the players. Competition like we see in this 7-on-7 tournament helps with that process.” The Sabercats were among about 100 teams that entered this year’s Broncos 7-on-7 tournament. The

7-on-7 games are an all-passing, touch football contest involving backs, receivers and linebackers and defensive backs. The 7-on-7 games provide coaches an opportunity to work on passing offense with quarterbacks, running backs and receivers and with defense with linebackers, corner backs and safeties. The 7-on-7 rules have teams playing two 10-minute halves with a running clock for the first eight minutes of each half. The game is played on half the field. The offense starts on the 40-yard line, the quarterback has four seconds to throw the ball and it takes 20 yards to earn a first down. A team earns seven points for a touchdown and three points for an interception. The 100 1A through 5A teams in the Broncos June 14-17 tournament were divided into four-team pools for round-robin competition. Pool play took up the first three days of the tournament, with 22 pool-play winners advancing to the June 17 single elimination tournament at the Broncos training facility at Dove Valley. Denver South won the tournament championship by outscoring Legacy.

The Sabercats were in pool play against Fountain-Fort Carson, Classical Academy and Wheat Ridge. Castle View outscored Fountain-Fort Carson 24-22 but lost to Classical Academy 14-0 and to eventual pool play winner Wheat Ridge, 24-10. Pfeiffer said the Sabercats have a voluntary summer program for football players including weight training and 7-on-7 games. In July, Castle View will hold a two-week hit camp as a tune-up for the coming season. “We expect to have about 130 to 140 athletes come out for the team this fall,” the coach said. “We also expect a big freshman turnout of 45 to 50 kids this year, which is good for our program. We work with the youth football programs in the area and we think that helps encourage freshman to come to Castle View.” This is third year Pfeiffer has been head coach of the Sabercats, and

he said he is seeing the enthusiasm and support for the football program growing. “We had a coach’s retreat this spring which is a real plus for us,” he said. “We have a total of 18 coaches, including our volunteers, for the football program. All the coaches are working together to build to instill the positive characteristics in all our kids. Winning games is fine but helping our players become fine young men is what is really important.” Heath Helms, a senior, said he is learning a new position this year. “I will be playing tight end for the first time in the fall,” he said. “I have been working on speed training and catching the football. I also will play strong safety. I guess I am a defensive guy so I like to play safety best, probably because I like to hit people.” He said his goal for the season is to be the best player and team leader he can be. He said those are his goal because he want to do everything he can do on both sides of the ball to help his team win games.

If you are a minor, you have the right to the appointment of a Guardian ad litem to represent your best interests.

You have the right to have this matter heard by a district court judge rather than by the magistrate. You may waive that right, and in doing so, you will be bound by the findings and recommendations of the magistrate, subject to review as provided by sec. 19-1-108(5.5), C.R.S. 2016, and subsequently, to the right of appeal as provided by Colorado Appellate Rule 3.4.

This summons is being initiated by the Douglas County Department of Human Services through its counsel. Dated: June 29, 2017 John Thirkell, #13865 R.

Unregulated Contaminants*** EPA has implemented the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR) to collect data for contaminants that are suspected to be present in drinking water and do not have health-based standards set under the Safe Drinking Water Act. EPA uses the results of UCMR monitoring to learn about the occurrence of unregulated contaminants in drinking water and to decide whether or not these contaminants will be regulated in the future. We performed monitoring and reported the analytical results of the monitoring to EPA in accordance with its Third Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR3). Once EPA reviews the submitted results, the results are made available in the EPA’s National Contaminant Occurrence Database (NCOD) (http://www.epa.gov/dwucmr/national-contaminant-occurrence-database-ncod) Consumers can review UCMR results by accessing the NCOD. Contaminants that were detected during our UCMR3 sampling and the corresponding analytical results are provided below. ***More information about the contaminants that were included in UCMR3 monitoring can be found at: http://www.drinktap.org/water-info/whats-in-my-water/unregulated-contaminantmonitoring-rule.aspx. Learn more about the EPA UCMR at: http://www.epa.gov/dwucmr/learn-about-unregulated-contaminant-monitoring-rule or contact the Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791 or http://water.epa.gov/drink/contact.cfm.
