Wedding rings among items missing in alleged Castle Rock theft Vacationing couple cut trip short after cash, cards and jewelry reported stolen BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
A couple vacationing in Castle Rock this month said their trip took a turn for the worse when someone allegedly stole the wife’s purse, which contained her Social Security card, approximately $2,000 in cash and her wedding bands. Les Slayton, 66, and his wife, Carol, 60, of Rapid City, South Dakota, said they were shopping at the Outlets at Castle Rock on Oct. 14 when they stopped to use the restroom. The
couple continued shopping for 10 to 15 minutes after leaving before Carol realized she left her purse in the bathroom, they said. When she went back to look for it, Carol says the purse was gone. Inside the Coach bag, she was carrying house keys, garage door keys, credit cards, between $1,900 and $2,200 in cash and diamond earrings. Most significantly, the couple said, she was carrying the wedding band set Les gave her more than 40 years ago. The couple will mark their 42nd anniversary in December. “All of that was just material except my wedding ring,” Carol said. Chelsea Hartnett, a spokeswoman for the Outlets at Castle Rock, confirmed a lost-and-found report was filed Oct. 14 with the shopping center, but neither customer service nor security had been informed of the missing jewelry, only of the purse.
When items are reported missing, she said, the mall provides customers information about filing reports with the Castle Rock Police Department if that is requested, but it was not for this incident. The couple did, however, file a report with police on Oct. 14. “We do work really closely with the Castle Rock Police Department,” Hartnett said, adding police had not contacted the shopping center about the incident. “Obviously, we’ll support an investigation in any way, shape or form.” Carol said she doesn’t ordinarily keep the wedding band set or her Social Security card in her purse. Les gifted her a new wedding ring in recent years, and she was carrying the original set — comprising an engagement ring, wedding band and anniversary ring — in her purse with plans to have it sized.
They were working to replace Carol’s I.D. and Social Security card as of Oct. 17. The couple decided to have their credit cards turned off and their locks changed at home. The Slaytons twice checked with customer service at the shopping center, but the purse has not been turned in. The police report shows the Slaytons reported the purse, credit cards, cash, rings and jewelry as being stolen, estimating the market value at $3,000. Although the Slaytons had planned to stay in Castle Rock longer, the couple said they returned home a few days early following the incident. Carol at first hoped whoever took her purse would mail the rings to the address on the I.D., but she is no longer optimistic the items will be returned. “It’s gone forever,” Carol said. “I told (Les) that hurts me more.”

Castle Rock Boy Scout asks public’s help in Eagle Scout project About me I live in Castle Rock. I am 14 years old and a ninth-grader at Douglas County High School. I am a part of a family of six — my mom, dad, two brothers and one sister. I play baseball and run cross country for Douglas County High School. I love playing baseball and watching it. I was superhyped when the Rockies went to the postseason this year. Why I’m a Boy Scout I am a member of Troop 780 and achieved the rank of Life Scout. I joined Boy Scouts because my dad participated as a kid and all his scouting stories sounded awesome. I enjoy the scouting adventures the most. My dad and I have been scuba diving, shotgun shooting and backpacking. We are planning to go to Philmont next year.

My Eagle Scout project My Eagle Scout project is remapping the Ridgeline Open Space. The idea for my project was brought to me by my dad’s coworker, an avid bicyclist, and firefighter Lt. Matt Rettmer. The end goal of my project is to improve the safety of trail users and to make the trail easier and clearer for the community. For my project I am re-creating the maps to be color-coded and easier to understand. I am also adding quartermile markers for trail user and activity groups to track their mileage. The second use of the mileage markers is an extra safety helper. If anyone now gets hurt while on the Ridgeline Open Space they can call 911 and give a more accurate location. As an example, someone could call in and say “Hey, I just broke my leg and I’m on

Bus drivers, teachers’ aides among those who may get raises BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The Douglas County School District has 50 unfilled bus-driver positions. The hourly pay starts at $16.06 per hour. The same position in the Cherry Creek School District starts at $17.58 per hour. The shortage at DCSD forced the district to cancel several field trips — most at the middle school level — planned for this school year. In Douglas County, educational assistants who work with students with special needs make $13.60 an hour. At Cherry Creek, similar positions start at $14.63 an hour. “Not only are we competing with neighboring districts,” DCSD Superintendent Thomas Tucker said, “we are competing with local restaurants around here for quality people.” The school district is struggling to
attract and retain classified employees — bus drivers, teachers’ aides, health assistants, educational assistants in special education and other hourly positions. At a board of education meeting on Oct. 16, district staff made a recommendation to the school board for salary increases for the hard-to-fill positions. “It’s going to take more money and time to fully address the problems we have,” Mary Chesla, the district’s compensation and licensed substitute director, said during a presentation at the meeting. “It doesn’t fully close the gap but it narrows it considerably.” The recommendation depends heavily on ballot measure 5A, a $40 million mill levy override. If voters approve the tax measure on Nov. 6, additional funds would go toward teacher and staff pay and programming. Of the $40 million, $14 million would go toward staff

www.applewoodfestivals.com
salaries and $3 million would go toward benefits, according to Chesla. In the district’s recommendation, classified employees in hard-to-fill positions would receive a raise starting at 5 percent. In addition, those who worked during the three-year pay freeze from 2008-11 would receive a 1.5 percent raise for each year, on top of their current salary. Here’s how it would work: A classified employee who experienced three years of the pay freeze would get a 4.5 percent raise, or 1.5 percent for each of the three years. On top of that, the employee would receive a 5 percent raise to his or her current salary. In June, the board voted to enact a pay raise for licensed staff, which are teachers and administrators. In the 2019-20 school year, licensed employees and administrators on the district’s performance evaluation systems will receive a 3.2 percent flat raise. Licensed

employees will also receive a 2 percent raise for each year of the pay freeze they experienced. The conversation on compensation for classified employees will continue at a board meeting on Nov. 13. If the mill levy override passes and the school board approves the recommendation, classified staff would receive retroactive payments for this school year through December. In January, they would have a new payroll rate for the following six months of the school year. School board member Wendy Vogel pointed out that the school district is the largest employer in Douglas County, with 8,400 employees. “This isn’t just good for our system and students, this is good for our community,” Vogel said of the salary increases. “For us to treat people and pay them fairly is good for our whole community.”

Mayor candidates hold forum in Castle Rock Questions focus on growth, economic development BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Jason Gray, Randy Reed and Charles Fletcher sat for a forum in Castle Rock on Oct. 18 as the three strive to become the town’s next mayor. JESSICA GIBBS new businesses shouldn’t receive incentive packages if it could hurt existing operations in town, such as similar companies. Fletcher said the town has ample retail — naming the still-developing Promenade as an example — and he’s unlikely to support incentivizing more unless it’s bringing a new service to town. Reed said incentives are often necessary to attract those new businesses. Gray agreed, saying the town
can’t “do away” with incentives but they should be carefully considered. “Towns across America incentivize businesses,” Gray said. And there’s still room for more amenities, they said. Candidates noted how the town’s growth has already spurred more entertainment options in Castle Rock. The Starlighting began with crowds of 150 and now draws roughly 20,000 people to the downtown district, and a

“
Vote Yes on 5A&B As a Douglas County legislator, my conservative record on educational activism is strong. My last year as state representative I was awarded the Legislator of the Year award by the League of Charter Schools, and in a previous year I was the sponsor of a teacher accountability bill that greatly reduced the power of tenure. I know the educational landscape, and I urge a yes vote on the school district’s measures 5A and 5B. I believe in market forces, so I support 5A to attract the best teachers. Isn’t it logical that a good teacher would look for the best paying job? Douglas County needs to get in the market by offering more competitive salaries. As for 5B, I was impressed by the district’s schoolby-school listing of how the money would be used. Roofs, heating and air conditioning and security enhancements are the preponderance of the repairs. Subcommittees serving under several recent boards have been urging these basic repairs. It’s important to realize that both neighborhood and charter schools will benefit. Vote YES on 5A and 5B.

Castle Rock residents got another chance this month to meet the men vying to become the town’s first at-large mayor face-to-face. Candidates Jason Gray, Randy Reed and Charles Fletcher sat for a forum at town hall the evening of Oct. 18. Moderator John Manka opened the night with a topic Gray called the latest buzzword in town — growth — asking how they’d address it in the future. More questions throughout the evening fell under that umbrella. Residents submitted their inquiries through social media and from the crowd. They wanted to know how the town could attract large employers, what candidates’ thoughts were on incentivizing new businesses and what amenities the town still needed. Reed said the town should market itself to large businesses and primary employers, also a mission Gray said he’d “want to lean on as mayor.” Fletcher thinks the town could leverage its small retail and office space — if it brings in broadband — to become “a haven for tech companies” and smaller startups. All candidates seemed to agree that
concert series fills the town’s amphitheater through the summer months. Fletcher suggested, to cheers from the crowd, the town could benefit from an Alamo theater. Reed questioned if the town could bring in minor league baseball. Gray envisions bolstering trail systems to connect parks from The Meadows to downtown’s Festival Park to Founders. “We have some great events and they’ve really grown,” Fletcher said, commending town staff, “particularly over the last few years.” Ultimately, Reed said, growth is good for the community. Gray believes the town should look at it positively. Fletcher said he’s “a big proponent of smart growth.” All candidates called for “smart,” “responsible,” “managed” growth. Reed said there’s opportunity for infill development in town, but it needs to fit with existing infrastructure. High-density projects should be focused on the outer areas of town. Gray called for more affordable housing to support workers like first responders and teachers. He believes it could make the growth feel less overwhelming. Fletcher said the town should communicate between residents and developers early in the process to people understand what’s being proposed. The election takes place Nov. 6. Residents should receive their ballots this month.

Honoring a fallen hero Castle Rock celebrates groundbreaking of park named for Zack Parrish BY TAYLORE TODD SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
A
gainst a backdrop of snow-covered mountains, on a chilly and windy afternoon, the wife of slain Douglas County Sheriff ’s Deputy Zack Parrish and a contingent of dignitaries and law enforcement officials struck golden shovels into the ground to dedicate a new park in Parrish’s name. The Oct. 17 groundbreaking ceremony for the Deputy Zack S. Parrish III Memorial Park, included Parrish’s wife, Gracie, Castle Rock Police Chief Jack Cauley, Castle Rock Mayor Jennifer Green and members the county’s SWAT team and police departments from around Douglas County. “The goal in Castle Rock is to have a park within walking distance of all the neighborhoods,” Green said. “Deputy Parrish had a love for family, for being in the community and for being in parks. This will do something to honor him and people in the community as well.” Before joining the sheriff ’s office, Parrish served with the Castle Rock Police Department. The park will be built on 5 1/2 acres on Low Meadows Boulevard, next to Aspen View Elementary. The project will cost $2.6 million and is estimated to be complete by spring 2019. The parks and recreation department sent out a survey to residents asking them to vote on the name of a new park. The results overwhelmingly chose to honor Parrish, who was killed Dec. 31 in Highlands Ranch by a man who was mentally ill. “It really drives home the notion that the sacrifices police officers make on a daily basis do not go unnoticed,” said Joseph Cybert, public information officer for the Castle Rock Police Department. “More importantly, it is an acknowledgement that we make a difference in the lives of the citizens in this great community, and for that I am proud to serve Castle Rock.”
Police officers and Douglas County SWAT team members bow their heads in remembrance of Sheriff’s Deputy Zack Parrish, who was killed on duty on Dec. 31, 2017.

Town tackles interchange funding challenge Officials look to expedite Crystal Valley project BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
It’s a project that’s been years in the making and one with no clear timeline for the future, but Castle Rock is looking to make an interchange at Crystal Valley Parkway and Interstate 25 happen sooner rather than later. Town officials have held numerous conversations in recent weeks and months around expediting the construction of an I-25 interchange at Crystal Valley Parkway, located at the south end of town. With an over-burdened Plum Creek Parkway to the north and sizable development planned in the area, the transportation project would bring much needed support, officials say. “The southern portion of the community needs good access to the interstate,” Town Manager David Corliss said in an Oct. 2 council meeting. Design and environment planning began in the early 2000s. The holdup, from then and through today, remains funding. The project would require relocating a portion of West Frontage Road, a roadway running parallel to
I-25 south of Castle Rock, said Art Griffith with Douglas County Public Works. That’s about $30 million to $35 million. Combined with the cost of the interchange, the total project could reach $94 million. Staff are working on funding options to present for council at a later date. Developers in the area began pitching in to an interchange fund years ago, but other sources need to be identified, Corliss said. While that could include grants, town employees have been eyeing the town’s 2030 Master Plan and capital improvement projects within it to determine if any could be postponed while Castle Rock saves for a Crystal Valley Interchange. It’s unlikely the town will ask voters to approve a tax increase, but they may ask to use a TABOR timeout to help fund the project, Corliss said. To help get the ball rolling, the Castle Rock Town Council on Oct. 16 formally recognized the Crystal Valley Interchange Coalition, a group of stakeholders who will work toward identifying funding and support other aspects of the project. The group includes members from the town, the county, area landowners and more. Congressman Ken Buck in September wrote a letter to Derek Kan, undersecretary for policy with the U.S. Department of Transportation, in support of coordinating the Crystal Valley Interchange with the ongoing
Gap project, spearheaded by the Colorado Department of Transportation. The Gap widening project kicked off in September and will last through 2021, adding one lane in each direction to I-25 between Castle Rock and Monument. It remains unclear if that is an option, but Corliss said town staffers are arranging meetings with CDOT to discuss the possibility. Their hope is to save some money by piggybacking the Crystal Valley Interchange project on the Gap widening project. Local developers and business owners have implored the town to make the project a priority, including John Medved, owner of the Wheat Ridge and Castle Rock-based Medved car dealership, and the developers behind
one of Castle Rock’s newest impending neighborhoods, The Lanterns, whose plan includes building 1,200 single-family lots south of Crystal Valley Parkway. Matt Call, a town resident and member of the Economic Development Council, said the project wouldn’t just alleviate traffic problems on Plum Creek Parkway and surrounding areas but would also support local businesses and help in the EDC’s mission of attracting primary employers. Councilmembers George Teal and Jess Loban are two members of the Crystal Valley Interchange Coalition and expressed their desire to see the interchange prioritized, with Loban calling for a “full court press.” Teal said the project will require public and private funds. Corliss said staff hope to return soon with “a strong consensus” from the coalition for how to move the project forward. “If we don’t do anything,” he said Oct. 2, “we’re going to have traffic backing up onto I-25.”
It’s unlikely the town will ask voters to approve a tax increase, but they may ask to use a TABOR timeout to help fund the project.

Man sentenced to 16 years for injuring Douglas County deputy Joshua Kane Soto, 32, sentenced Oct. 12 for ramming his car, injuring deputy STAFF REPORT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
A Denver man who injured a Douglas County Sheriff ’s deputy after ramming his car in an attempt to evade arrest was sentenced to 16 years in prison Oct. 12, according to a news release from the 18th Judicial District. Joshua Kane Soto, 32, pleaded guilty to first-degree assault/threatening a police officer with a weapon, a Class 3 felony. Soto also pleaded guilty to vehicular eluding, a Class 4 felony. He was sentenced to 16 years in the Colorado Department of Corrections by Douglas County District Court Judge Shay Whitaker. The injured deputy, whose name was not released, gave a statement at the sentencing: Soto “put himself, his passenger, other drivers and myself in an extremely dangerous situation. This job is inherently dangerous and a profession I elected to take on and thoroughly love to do. With that said, when unforeseen injuries due to selfish, reckless and dangerous people impact others around me, the impact is hard to define.” Soto recently moved to California and was already on bond in Colorado in a
felony case. According to the release, Soto’s GPS ankle monitor stopped working, and he did not report the issue. Deputies tried to pick him up Dec. 27, 2017. Soto fled in a rented Chrysler Sebring. Deputies tried to pull Soto over Dec. 28 near C-470 and University Boulevard. Soto sped away from deputies, who pursued him onto northbound Interstate 25. Soto turned around at Arapahoe Road, heading southbound toward Douglas County. A marked patrol car tried to stop Soto, and Soto drove across several lanes of traffic and rammed the patrol car into a barrier, the news release said. Soto backed up, drove forward and rammed the car a second time. The deputy injured his ankle and required stitches for a cut on his forehead. Other deputies eventually got Soto off the interstate and onto westbound County Line Road. He stopped the car near Mercury and Saturn drives, where Soto was arrested. “The flow of those few days in December causes the court the gravest concern,” Whitaker told Soto. “It was your actions that were going to dictate how this ended…You were a threat to the officers and to this community.”

VOICES What a deal, what a steal, gotta get an automobile
QUIET DESPERATION
I
rarely buy, lease, rent or steal anything because of a television commercial. There are products I avoid, however, because the commercials that go along with them irritate the Cap’n Crunch out of me. Craig Marshall What I have noticed lately is that half of Smith the commercials on television are trying to sell me an automobile. During some programs — sports — it’s more than half. New cars all look alike, so marketing has its hands full. And the vehicles
now come with features I missed out on when I was a kid. You can tell your car what song to play and it will play it. Necessary? Probably not. But it must turn someone on somewhere. I don’t know how I got out of childhood alive. We didn’t have seat belts. I think what we had was better drivers. Cars now have back-up cameras, and warning lights if a motorist is in your blind spot. Drivers might not be as good as they once were because of our overconfidence in the new technologies. We think they will compensate for our indiscretions. Oh — and back then, we didn’t have phones in our cars either. All of the commercials claim the
same things: safety, reliability, attributes up the Yangtze, and, bless them, limited time only, once in a lifetime, sales. “Thousands below MSRP.” How is that possible? It sounds like the manufacturers are getting cheated. The most prominent push is with beautiful women and great sound systems. I guess if Rita Hayworth came with my next station wagon, I might consider it. But I don’t think Rita would be caught dead in a station wagon. Car, cars, cars. Is everyone looking for their next car? There is no shortage of them, is there? Every airport has lot after lot of shiny rentals. On our last expedition, Jennifer and I were told, “Pick a car, any car.” All of the trunks were open, and a key was in every ignition.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Pick Reed for mayor The recently approved changes to the Castle Rock Town Charter call for the election of an at-large mayor and other procedural and substantive matters in November’s election. Several candidates have thrown their hats into the ring making for a highly competitive and spirited campaign. One of them, former Castle Rock Mayor Randy Reed, enjoys some unique qualifications worth noting. Mr. Reed has the advantage of being able to run on an historical record of facts, not merely campaign promises, slogans or buzz words. Those of us who have come to know Randy recognize his determination, responsiveness and even-tempered nature. His broad, thoughtful perspectives on critical issues make him easily approachable. He is inquisitive, thoughtful and responsive in dealings with his constituents. He is highly respected and enjoys a reputation as a truly civic-minded community leader and dedicated public servant. During his tenure as a town council member and mayor, Randy established a solid record as an effective leader. His collaborative style of governance and even-handedness served him well and were particularly helpful in dealing with the financial challenges of the great recession of 2008 for the town. Randy is a proven consensus-builder and established the reputation as a reliable collaborator in mutually beneficial

municipal and regional relationships. I have no doubt whatsoever that Randy will be able to “hit the streets running” beginning day one and urge you to consider casting your vote for him. Ken Kania Castle Rock Chamber opposes 73 The Castle Rock Chamber Board of Directors took a position to oppose Amendment 73 — Graduated Income Tax, which would change the state income tax rate from 4.63 percent to a progressive income tax with a top marginal rate of 8.25 percent for (individuals and those filing jointly) earning over $150,000 annually, which is not adjusted for inflation. The stated purpose of A73 is to increase funding for public schools by $1.6 billion per year. What this means and why the chamber is opposed: While agreeing education is important for our children and our future workforce and should be properly funded, we believe Amendment 73 causes more harm than good: 1. It’s a Constitutional amendment. That means this financial arrangement would be permanently a part of our Colorado Constitution regardless of future needs for education or any other state service. 2. It unfairly impacts our smallest of businesses
We actually shopped for about fifteen minutes before we decided. There was an exciting baseball game on television recently. It was played in Chicago on a Tuesday night. There was one automobile commercial after another between half innings and whenever there was a pitching change. I thought about it the next day, and realized not a single commercial stood out. (Maybe the Packard.) There is one (unnamed) manufacturer who continually shoots itself in the foot with commercials that boast the brand no longer conforms to past perceptions. If that’s true, marketing shouldn’t bring it up. SEE SMITH, P32

WINNING WORDS
Michael Norton
e all probably know the saying, and more than likely we have heard it hundreds of times too, “Work smarter, not harder.” Doesn’t it seem like another one of those principles that sounds so good in theory but one that is really difficult to pull off ? A recurring theme to conversations that I am having recently is that people are working harder than ever, and with that hard work and extra hours, the stress and pressure are mounting at work and at home. It is boiling over into all aspects of their lives and impacting their eating habits, workouts when they can fit them in, their socializing, and definitely their relationships. Now we try and balance this and think we can spin as many plates as possible or we have convinced ourselves that we can multi-task effectively and efficiently, and we may even believe that we are as productive or even more productive than we ever have been before. At what cost? How much pressure is building up? Where are those pressure points impacting us the most? In a recent conversation with Jamie, a single mother who works three jobs to keep her family in the neighborhood that is best for them where she feels safe and has easy access to schools and to her jobs, she shared her story with me. In addition to her workload, Jamie volunteers in the community and is a “Team Mom” for one of her daughter’s activities. She places so much pressure on herself, and what she shared is that maybe

Looking ahead at what could come over next decade
I
t has been 10 years since Lehman Brothers failed. That was the ultimate culmination of one of the worst decades in economic history when three recessions occurred in one 10-year period. Remember the dot-com bubble? That collapsed in 2000 only to be followed by another recession in 2003 and the Great Recession in 2009. These were not good years for investor returns. Based on a recent study by the San Francisco Federal Reserve, the average American lost $70,000 in lifetime income due to employment situations or investment losses due to the last recession. The near-zero interest rate environment that followed 2009 created a worldwide limbo of low inflation and anemic growth that characterized the post-crisis years.¹ So what should we expect next? It seems like we have been beaten up and then put in time-out for nine years and now wonder what the next decade will hold. Unemployment has improved but wages are stagnant. Investors made significant gains since 2009 but now worry the end is near. No matter what side of the table you sit on, the waiting game feels like additional torture, except that your balance sheet may have more than doubled if you own a house or have equity investments the last nine years. It’s a shame we can’t be more euphoric about low inflation and high returns. Instead, we Americans tend to focus on what is wrong instead of what is right. And there is plenty of both.
The current busiFINANCIAL ness cycle appears to be dying a slow death STRATEGIES as I have written about before. Now we see stress fractures appearing in the stock and bond and real estate markets. Values are no longer climbing precipitously, and stock prices are leveling off. Rising interest Patricia Kummer rates will create its own set of issues, including soaking up excess money supply which is exactly what the Federal Reserve hopes to do. A natural side effect is that it costs more to buy a house which will automatically start to affect housing prices. The price of cars will go up with tariffs, and if you need to finance your vehicle, you will notice zero interest rates have disappeared. Hence you are spending more, but don’t forget, your wages didn’t actually go up beyond the normal inflation rate. This is what it feels like when money starts to get tight. Meanwhile, consumer sentiment is setting record highs, which means we are spending like there is no tomorrow. However, this cycle will end, and we may wish we had planned a little better for the next decade. I would encourage consumers to prepare for higher prices and tougher credit. Investors should strategize for short-term disappointment in both

stock and bond prices. Stock prices need continued rising earnings to fuel their current lofty place. Third-quarter earnings season will start next week, and the increase is expected to continue but the rate of change will likely start to slow. Subsequent quarters will continue the slowing until stock prices settle at a more reasonable rate. Bond prices typically decline with rising interest rates. We are starting to see this in most bonds, less so in shortterm and high-yield. However, with the expected increases recently announced by the Federal Reserve, this is bound to play out over time. This should help curb inflation based on the improved GDP (gross domestic product), however time will tell. Don’t wait to review your goals, investments and time frame. Make sure short-term needs are not at risk and most importantly, don’t compromise
your long-term goals for a near-term discomfort. We don’t know what the next decade will hold, but it most likely won’t be like the last two.

WHAT: The 34th annual Boo At The Zoo offers trick-or-treat stations, creepy crawly animal demonstrations and family-friendly entertainment under the canopy of the fall foliage at the Denver Zoo.
Hesty was born at the Denver Zoo in 2010. During a light snow day in early October, she braved the wet and cold to play on the new structure in the outdoor orangutan enclosure.

species. How I can make the best possible life for them in zoo life.” Valois said paying attention to the quirks of each animal is very important to their care. Specifically how the gorillas don’t like to get their hair wet. Or how the bachelor pair of young gorillas, Curtis and Charlie, are complete opposite personalities. Curtis, the older bother, is pretty mellow and likes quieter interaction, she explained, while Charlie is a bit of a wild guy.
he history of cinema is the history of technology: For every great breakthrough in the world of tech, cinema has found a way to incorporate it into storytelling. Recently, this relationship has gone beyond visual effects and sound design — audiences can now view the latest films at home instead of the theater and use virtual reality to actively participate in the stories. But the 41st Denver Film Festival, held from Wednesday, Oct. 31, through Sunday, Nov. 11, is tapping these advancements to give attendees the deepest cinematic experience. “At the Festival Annex, which is the festival’s hub, we have features like VR and inCOMING teractive experiATTRACTIONS ences,” said Britta Erickson, festival director. “We also have Hamlet Mobile, an immersive, traveling adaptation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet staged for small audiences.” The Denver Clarke Reader Film Festival has become one of the metro area’s biggest cultural events of the year. And scanning this year’s more than 200 screenings, it’s easy to see why. From three-to-five-minute short films to Red Carpet screenings of movies that everyone may be talking about come Oscar season, there is a great deal to explore. Films will be shown all over Denver, including the Ellie Caulkins Opera House, 1385 Curtis St., and Sie Film Center, 2510 E. Colfax Ave. The Festival Annex will be housed at the McNichols Building, 144 W. Colfax Ave. “There are great ticket packages that allow audiences to pick several films that they’re interested in seeing, or they can buy individual tickets,” Erickson said. “We pride ourselves on providing a smooth customer service and viewing experience during the festival.” One of the most eagerly anticipated movies is a piece of Colorado’s history — director Jason Reitman’s (“Up in the Air” and “Juno”) “The Frontrunner.” The film is about Colorado’s own Gary Hart (played by Hugh Jackman) and the affair that ended his political career.

Zookeeper Michelle Valois said she loves the interaction she can have with the apes at the Denver Zoo.

M
ichelle Valois says a typical day at the Denver Zoo is a lot of fun and a lot of work. Valois, a primate zookeeper, has been at the Denver Zoo for 17 years. Her job is to take care of the orangutans and gorillas in their separate exhibits in the Primate Panorama habitat. The Denver Zoo is home to six critically endangered Sumatran orangutans and five western lowland gorillas. But the zoo is home to many more primates including golden lion tamarins, aye-ayes, ring-tailed lemurs and mandrills. “In our primate department we have a really big collection,” Valois said. “I think it’s something we are really proud of and excited to have that many different kinds of primates to work with.” Valois fell in love with primates while working as an intern at the Denver Zoo and helping with the revamp of the primates department and the construction of the ape building. “For me it was always kids or animals, which I feel like have a lot of similarities,” Valois said. “When I got introduced to primates, I knew I had

“It’s neat to see these two gorillas who are full brothers and grown up together to have totally different personalities,” Valois said. “When I come around the corner, Charlie is often waiting for me to play. “He likes to throw hay and beat on his chest and have his back scratched.” While the gorillas are high-energy, social animals. Valois said the orangutans, who live on the other side of the building, are more solitary animals and prefer a low-key environment with the exception of Eirina, an 11-year-old female, who is incredibly playful. “She loves to swing,” Valois said. “She takes sheets and make hammocks for herself. She ties knots. She has what we interpret as a great sense of humor.” Both the gorillas and orangutans have indoor/outdoor enclosures and a living space out of the public eye. This, Valois said, is important because while the apes acclimate to the colder Colorado weather, they’re

“A lot of people will remember when all this happened, and Reitman is really excited to be back at the festival to show the film,” Erickson said. “It’s great that we get to feature such a Colorado story.” For more information and tickets, visit www.denverfilmfestival.denverfilm.org.
Arvada Center’s celebration of color For my money, the yellows, reds oand oranges of autumn are nature’s best color show. And they make the Arvada Center’s fall exhibitions’ - focus on color the perfect match for the season. Running through Nov. 11 at the Arvada Center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., Virginia Maitland Retrospective: 1965-Present, Connected by Color and Laura Merage: Nausy Nausy, showcase different explorations of color. Housed in the Center’s Main Gallery, Boulder painter Virginia Maitland gets an expansive career retrospective. Through more than 45 works and archive materials, some dating back to 1965, visitors can see how she incorporates color, light and nature into her large-scale paintings. The Upper Gallery’s Connected by Color exhibit explores color’s limitless possibilities through the work of four artists. Patricia Aaron works in encaustic. Jennifer Ivanovic pours acrylic paint straight into her composition. Sue Oehme is a master printmaker. And Jodi Stuart creates ethereal sculptures using 3D printing pens. In the Theatre Gallery, Laura Merage’s soft sculpture creations include huggable pillows and plush seats that allow visitors to enjoy the whimsical creations in style.

So, the fact that they’re appearing on the same bill at the Summit Music Hall, 1902 Blake St. in Denver, should be cause for celebration. The show is at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 27. Fallon and Finn have been releasing solo albums over the last couple years, using the opportunity to explore different ways of writing and playing. But the results are just as rewarding. Last year, Finn’s “We All Want the Same Thing,” featured some truly novelistic songs that could just wreck a person. And Fallon’s “Sleepwalkers,” released in February, is one of this year’s best albums. For tickets to this special show, visit www.summitdenver.com.

trees. In a natural environment they would not come to the ground, not like ours do here. So having options like trees or like our new climbing structure is important to give them new ways to climb, to find food, places to take naps … Though a generous donation we were able to put up the new structure. The keepers and the orangutans really like it.”

Sanctuary housing exotic animals is something wild Weld County facility lets visitors view amazing creatures from elevated walkway BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
It was a sunny, pleasant fall day for a drive through the plains in southern Weld County and many of the inhabitants of the Wild Animal Sanctuary were basking — on the grass, on platforms, in the openings to underground shelters, next to small wooden structures — at home on the Colorado prairie, although they are certainly not native species, with a few exceptions. Each one has a story and most were rescued from truly difficult situations. A guidebook tells their stories ... Before the animals came to the sanctuary, they were often confined in cages, without adequate food or veterinary care — some came from badly run zoos, others from roadside attractions — or from owners who bought a cute baby tiger or bear cub at an exotic animal auction and soon found it was not a cuddly pet after all. They may have been confined in a rickety building or a concrete pen without fresh air or sunlight or enough food ... Fortunately, the sanctuary has an on-site veterinary hospital and two veterinarians who can supervise care as needed. The veterinary school at Colorado State University is also available to help. Each animal has a name: Mafalda, who had serious dental problems, and Walter, who had been declawed and is blind, are grizzlies from a terrible zoo in Argentina, where fortunately, concerned citizens and some government employees complained. The zoo was forced to close and the grizzlies were rescued and now live in a large area, with brick paths to help Walter navigate to his den and to food and water. (Also rescued from that zoo were two lions and three tigers.) Readers who have lived in the metro area for a while may recall an account of the rescue of 25 lions from Bolivian circuses in 2011 after a law was passed
IF YOU GO The Wild Animal Sanctuary is at 2999 County Road 53, Keenesburg (the location is east of Hudson in southern Weld County). It’s open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission: $30, adults; $15, ages 3-12. One watches an orientation video upon arrival, then goes up to the overhead walkway. There are picnic tables for those who want to bring a lunch and food and beverages available for purchase. A friendly, well-mannered resident bunch of dogs in all sizes and shapes, who live with the manager, serve as a greeting committee when one arrives. You’d think you walked into a Disney movie! wildanimalsanctuary.org, 303-536-0118. there forbidding using animals in circus performances. Included: Bam Bam, Morena, Marta, Rosa, Rosario and Campeon. Lions live together in prides in nature and these social organizations seem to occur at the sanctuary with patient management that introduces animals slowly under a watchful eye. Also on the grounds, in separate areas: wolves, jaguars, black bears, wolf hybrids, mountain lions, a few coati mundis and a few kit foxes, a porcupine, an emu and some alpacas. Included are some who were among 18 caged animals found in a “wildlife education” exhibit in a mall in Iowa that was closed down by the USDA. We saw a black bear happily swimming in a large pool, while another sat and watched. We didn’t see any feeding times, although my daughter and son-in-law recall a happy bear who was very possessive of a watermelon on a previous visit they made. At another spot on the land, there is a special tiger pool, where animals can be introduced to each other in a spot that isn’t anyone’s territory. Tigers are naturally very territorial and may be slow to become accustomed to another like animal, so supervised swim time can help the getting-acquainted process along ... We were impressed by the volunteers in orange shirts, who interacted with visitors, telling about individual animals like the 1,000-pound male grizzly bear and his 900-pound female mate, easily spotted. Soon, it will be time for the resident bears to tank up on food and hibernate
A view from the high walkway at the Wild Animal Sanctuary: in the distance: a pair of large male lions basking in the sunshine, forgetting stressful circus days. Midway, a lion peeks from a wooden shelter-people-watching, perhaps? PHOTO BY KIRSTEN ORAHOOD in their provided underground dens, so a mid-winter visitor won’t be likely to see them, although we were told that they do come out briefly at times for a snack. One views the animals from a mile and a half long walkway that carries one high above the furry residents. Apparently, when one stands behind a fence looking in, animals feel uncomfortable and territorial behavior results, but we were told that they aren’t concerned by overhead visitors. Recent good news: The Wild Animal Sanctuary, which is pretty well filled, has been able to buy a large piece of ranch land near La Junta, with natural caves, rock formations, trees and more, where safe spots can be available for future needy animals. The owner is willing to carry a loan and it will be paid through donations, allowing space for many more needy animals as years go by. Called a refuge, it will probably not be open for visitors as this remarkable sanctuary is.

Dress for Success A professional look is vital to job success Tabatha Stewart | Special to Colorado Community Media
S
tudies show, that on average, it takes a human being approximately eight seconds to form an opinion of someone they have just met, according to Amara Martin, executive director of Dress for Success
Denver. Those seven seconds of judgment are vital for women who are seeking employment, and for women served by Dress for Success, who may have trouble finding a job based on criminal histories, shelter addresses, or lapses in employment history due to hardships in life, it’s even more important to look the part of the job you are seeking. “In our society, it takes someone eight seconds to judge you,” said Martin. “It all starts with a look. Once they see you, then you can tell them all about your talents and how hard you work. But you have to get past the first eight seconds.” Dress for Success Denver is an affiliate non-profit
of the national Dress for Success, and was founded in 2006. Since it’s inception in Denver, the organization has helped more than 13,000 women all over the Denver metro area prepare and get jobs. “Clothes are important, but it’s not just about pretty clothes,” said Martin. “Not knowing what to wear, or worse, wearing inappropriate clothes to work, can cause a lot of stress and anxiety for a woman. We are really helping women thrive in work and in life. We partner with over 200 agencies in the Denver metro area who help women, including shelters and workforce centers.” The mission of Dress for Success, according to Martin, is to “empower women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional attire and the development tools to help women thrive in work and in life.” The non-profit offers services in professional suiting, career center coaching, career navigator
mentorship, a women’s employment network, pathways to education and a professional women’s group to help women retain jobs once they get them. Martin, a Denver native, said she was lucky enough early in her career to have a female boss reprimand her for inappropriate work attire, and give her some advice that has stuck with her. “I had an internship at 17, at a law firm in downtown Denver,” said Martin. “I went to work dressed like a standard teenager. The manager of the law firm is an amazing woman, and she brought me into her office and explained to me that you dress the way you want to be treated. If you want to be treated with respect, then you dress with respect. I bought a pair of black pants and looked and acted the part.” Martin and her crew, along with some of the women they have helped, will be presenting a fashion show at the Women’s Health and Beauty Expo Oct. 20.

BUILDING POTENTIAL
Central Colorado Area Health Education provides valuable education to students, services to community
W
Lin Browning and Sandra Kohl Special to Colorado Community Media
ithin 12 local counties, Central Colorado Area Health Education Center (CCAHEC) connects students to careers, professionals to communities, and communities to better health. “The Belmar Women’s Health & Beauty Expo is a unique opportunity to support health in Jefferson County while engaging our students and team members in activities that further their understanding in the importance of public health and wellbeing,” said Lin Browning, the Executive Director at CCAHEC.”
Expo participants are encouraged to learn their numbers with free health screenings from CCAHEC medical staff, students, and volunteers on Saturday, Oct. 20, 2018 at the Belmar Shopping Center Plaza from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Check blood pressure, glucose, pulse, height, weight, and vision. Access to referral and health education resources will also be readily available. As one of 261 Area Health Education Centers nationwide inspired by the Health Resource Services Administration (HRSA) goals, CCAHEC develops and enhances education and training networks within communities, academic institutions, and community-based organizations. In turn, these networks increase diversity among health professionals, broaden the distribution of the health workforce, enhance health care quality, and improves health care delivery to rural and underserved areas and populations. CCAHEC has developed a strong focus on healthcare career recruitment and retention activities. Programs aim to increase the potential for secondary, college, and health profession students from underrepresented populations, educationally disadvantaged, and rural backgrounds to successfully pursue a health profession career with an emphasis in public health. Partners include a variety of organizations including high schools, county workforce departments, education consortiums, and healthcare institutions. Through programs such as Health Careers Pre-Apprenticeships (real world experiences for 16 to 24-year-old students), AHEC
Scholars (clinical and didactic training for current health professions students), and a variety of career and health fairs around the region, CCAHEC guides and encourages students through the healthcare pipeline to increase health profession diversity. CCAHEC programs aim to increase the potential for health profession students to practice in a rural or urban underserved community by immersing them in community experiences through community-based education training programs, field placements, and interprofessional education and training. During their rotations, health professions students complete community service learning projects created to address identified community health needs. Working with programs such as the Colorado Health Extension System (CHES), the Regional Health Connectors (RHC), and the AmeriCorps Community Opioid Response Program (CORP), CCAHEC facilitates and supports Colorado healthcare practice transformation efforts. Program planning and participation with community partners promotes a patient- and data-centered, team-based approach, addressing social determinants of health to improve quality and community health outcomes in rural and medically underserved areas.

Women’s healthcare Advancements can make health care confusing Tabatha Stewart Special to Colorado Community Media
T
wenty years ago women typically saw their doctor once a year, and received a breast exam and perhaps a recommendation for a mammogram, based on their age. Seldom were they asked about domestic violence in the home, or how their overall happiness was affecting their mood or quality of life. Advancements in women’s health care, as well as taking a more wellrounded approach to a woman’s health, have changed the way women manage their health care concerns, and although beneficial, can be confusing today. It was once standard practice for women to have their first mammogram after the age of 40, while today’s recommendations are unclear based on each individual woman. Dr. Lindsay Eun, a physician with Westside Women’s Health Clinic, said honest conversations with your doctor are imperative to maintaining your health. “There are so many constant changes, it can become very confusing,” said Eun. “It’s important to see your doctor every year to discuss your needs.” According to Eun, an annual exam should include a discussion with your doctor regarding your overall health, including screening for safety and domestic violence issues, birth control, and eating and exercise habits. “We follow the American College of OBGyn guidelines, which recommend mammograms beginning at 40, and
colonoscopies beginning at 50,” said Eun. She also recommends women receive their first well-woman exam around the age of 16, to answer questions about your body, with a first pelvic exam being done around the age of 21, unless there are concerns. For women of child-bearing age, Eun recommends speaking with your doctor about your plans for starting a family, and which birth control method might be best for you. “There have been a lot of changes in the options for contraception,” said Eun. “There are some excellent long term options, which can last for several years, that have been improved over the years.” For women past child-bearing years, Eun stresses its just as important to be honest with your doctor about your future plans, and decide the best treatment as you age, including mammograms, colonoscopies, and the possibility of permanent contraception. While an annual doctor’s visit can screen for any problems, women need to take steps every day to keep themselves healthy, which, according to Eun, can sometimes be difficult. “Women need to make taking care of themselves a priority,” said Eun. “It’s easy to get caught up in running a household and holding a job, but women need to be sure to get plenty of exercise and reduce stress when they can. It can be difficult, but finding a balance is the first step in maintaining a healthy lifestyle.”
“It’s important to see your doctor every year to discuss your needs.” Dr. Lindsay Eun, physician with Westside Women’s Health Clinic

Swedish Medical Center strives for well-rounded health service programs for women From depth of service, to a whole team approach when it comes to caring for female patients, Swedish Medical Center works to set the standard in women’s healthcare in the Denver Metro Area. Understanding that women’s needs are unique in all areas, Swedish makes it a priority to go beyond birthing and delivery for female patients. From the Rocky Mountain region’s leading stroke care, the latest cancer treatments and advanced heart care, Swedish offers some of the area’s most specialized services. Christina Merritt, who joined Swedish as the administrative director of women’s services in May, said Swedish Medical Center has some of the best services in the region with doctors and medical professionals experience spanning decades. Some of the programs offered to women at Swedish include:
Pelvic Floor Disorder: The Comprehensive Pelvic Floor Center at Swedish is a multidisciplinary program that provides evaluation and treatment of patients with pelvic floor disorder. Providers work closely with each other to create individualized diagnosis and treatment plans that fit the needs of every patient.
Pregnancy and childbirth: Merritt said the important thing doctors and nurses in the labor and delivery area understand is that we live in changing times and every expectant mother has her own birthing plan. Swedish has a comprehensive team which includes; OB-GYNs, PNNPs, Nurse Midwives, seasoned nurses and a stellar Level III NICU, allowing them to provide great quality care and honor patients’ choices no matter their birth plan.
Breast Cancer Care: “Swedish has one of the area’s largest breast care programs,” said Merritt. As part of Sarah Cannon Cancer Institute and in partnership with Invision Sally Jobe and Oncology Rehab, Swedish’s comprehensive program includes nurse navigators to help guide patients from diagnosis and treatment through recovery and survivorship. Included in the breast care center are specialized breast surgeons, Dr. Laura Hafertepen, Dr. Jane Kercher and Dr. Jodi Widner. These doctors have years of experience and expertise in the most current surgical techniques for the treatment of breast cancer. Surgeons at Swedish specialize in high-risk cases, prophylactic surgery and breast cancer surgery.
Gynecologic Oncology: Serving as the leading provider of gynecologic cancer services int the Rocky Mountains, Swedish Medical Center is committed to providing the highest quality of care and compassion to women with cancer of the reproductive system.
Going digital Serving parents after they leave the hospital is also a goal at Swedish Medical Center. Through a new app to be launched soon, Merritt explained that a new mom can have everything they need to know about recovery from childbirth, the baby’s health and a one-stop shop for the next 18 months to keep track of feedings, diaper changes and any issues that may arise between mom and baby. “Currently, there are many separate apps available for each of these things,” Merritt said. “We are giving moms this information all in one place. Our care stays with them through the baby’s early development.”
Breast Cancer Reconstruction: With Dr. Lily Daniali leading the way, the reconstructive breast surgeons with Swedish Medical Center are experts and understand the full scope of breast reconstruction. Merritt said it’s in areas of plastic surgery that Swedish Medical Center is a true leader in meeting and understanding women’s needs. Two primary areas of focus include: • Lymphedema: Often a side effect of cancer treatment, lymphedema happens when the lymph nodes are removed. At Swedish, some of the surgical treatment options include lymph node transfer, Lymphovenous Bypass or Lymphedema Liposuction. • DEIP Flap: In DEIP flap reconstruction a surgeon uses fat, skin and blood vessels from the patient’s abdomen and then reattaches the blood vessels of the flap to blood vessels in the chest using microsurgery. This allows women to recover more quickly since no muscle tissue is removed

Sterling Ranch dedicates first public park Pat Gallagher Park named after influential Roxborough resident BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Pat Gallagher was among a small group of people who contributed to the vision of Sterling Ranch, a masterplanned development in northwest Douglas County. He was instrumental in crafting a set of principles that would guide the eco-friendly, technology-driven community. Gallagher died in 2015, but a piece of him will forever live on in Sterling Ranch. On Oct. 15, the development team hosted a dedication ceremony for the community’s first public park, named Pat Gallagher Park. “We’re so glad that our dad had the chance to contribute to something so important in his later years in life,” said Barry Gallagher, one of three children of Pat and his wife Marcia. “This work meant so much to him.” Sterling Ranch spans 3,400 acres west of Santa Fe Drive and south of Chatfield Reservoir. After a 20-year buildout, it is expected to have 12,000 homes with 33,000 people, along with schools, places of worship, shopping, recreation and innovative technology. When they were finalizing plans
for the development in the late 2000s, founders Harold and Diane Smethills held dozens of meetings with adjacent neighbors, stakeholders and governmental entities. That’s when they connected with Pat Gallagher, a resident of Roxborough, a small community west of Sterling Ranch. Gallagher and several other residents helped form “Eleven Points of Vision,” a set of principals that prioritize the region’s environmental needs and infrastructure issues. Highlights include rainwater management, open space and trails. The guidelines have been at the forefront of the development process. In 2010, the Colorado Water Conservation Board selected Sterling Ranch for the state’s first rainwater harvesting project. A storm management system will collect rainwater from commercial buildings and street gutters. The water will be stored in tanks and retention ponds. At completion, Sterling Ranch will have 30 miles of trails and open space will surround its dense neighborhoods. Today, nearly 200 homes in the community are occupied. Within five years, it is projected that there will be 2,500 households, according to a representative from Sterling Ranch. Gallagher’s family, neighbors and friends joined the Sterling Ranch community for the dedication ceremony, a media release says. They celebrated

Senior Kagan Giltinan plays soccer for Rock Canyon High School BY NICK PUCKETT NPUCKETT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
A
t the Rock Canyon High School turf field, just as an Oct. 17 practice wrapped up, a player asked the reporter standing on the sideline if he was Kagan Giltinan’s agent. Just as Giltinan jogged in to put the balls away, he attempted a ball trick, which was followed by another teammate shouting, “Oh, Cristiano!” (as in Ronaldo, the worldfamous soccer player). Though a senior on
the Jaguars’ boys soccer team, Giltinan tries to carry himself like a professional as much as possible. His performance speaks for itself. Giltinan leads the team in goals scored (nine) and is the undisputed leader of the 9-4-1 Jags squad. The team (6-2-1 in the Continental League) trails only Castle View (7-1-1) for the No. 1 spot in the standings. With the playoffs looming, Rock Canyon will undoubtedly look to their star striker to carry them to state contention.
COACH’S TAKE: ‘Kagan always likes to take a leadership (role) and get the guys together. He’s big on that. He’s a good positive leader in the group. On the pitch, his most dangerous time is when he’s squared to the goal and he’s 1-on-1 with a player, he can dice him up pretty regularly and create some space for himself. He’s strong on his left and his right side. As a person, he’s got that leadership ingrained in him.’ Aaron Carpenter, Rock Canyon boys soccer coach
Q&A with Giltinan What do you love about soccer? I like the freedom of it. There’s no set plays or anything, so you have to be intelligent with your movement, on the ball and off of it. You just have to be smart, but you have to be an athlete, and that’s what I like about it. You can be as creative as you want. Do you have a pre-match ritual or meal? The night before, I eat a lot of spaghetti or pasta and then a protein bar before the game. Then I just mentally prepare myself. How do you mentally prepare yourself? I just kind of forget about everything else going on in my life and act as if it’s a professional game, because that’s how you’re going to
reach a higher level. Do you know what you’re going to do after high school? I have a few offers from Division II schools to go play there, so I’ll be playing in college, and I’ll see what can happen after that. Some of the schools I’ve been to, the players go professional, go to the MLS and stuff, so we’ll see if that can happen. Right now, just focus on school and getting a college degree. Do you have a favorite class? I like physics. My grandpa had a Ph.D. in quantum physics, so he was always teaching me when I was really little. Is that something you want to study? I’ll probably go into engineering so I can make more money.

igh school sports can be beneficial in demonstrating values that athletes can use later in life, like discipline, dedication, teamwork and the ability to handle adversity. However, one of the pitfalls is the pressure to perform that is put on young athletes from a variety of sources, including themselves, coaches, parents and the lure of potential scholarship opportunities. Basketball players often face stressful situations in a close games by going to the foul line in the waning seconds. In baseball and softball, hitters can feel pressure with two outs and the tying and winning runOVERTIME ners on base in the bottom of the seventh. But what about cross country? Mountain Vista junior cross country runner Jenna Fitzsimmons is the defending Class 5A state Jim Benton champion and both the Golden Eagles girls and boys won last season’s team championships. So there has been pressure and expectations on Fitzsimmons all season — and there will be more during the state championship meet on Oct. 27 at the Norris Penrose Event Center in Colorado Springs. “There definitely can be pressure on a (cross country runner),” Fitzsimmons said. “With all my teammates, we’ve had some races where we all get super nervous. Our goal is to loosen each other up and try to take the pressure off each other before a race. “There can be pressure, but I just try to go and have some fun with more focus on what we are doing as a team and then the individual goals will come along if we are focusing on that team goal.” Fitzsimmons, who was fifth at the state meet as a freshman, had the fastest time recorded in the five 5A regional meets with a 17:52.00 in winning the Region 2 event at Aurora Sports Park on Oct. 18. Mountain Vista’s girls head into the state meet as one of the favorites after capturing the regional meet, with the five girls that scored finishing among the top eight runners. The Golden Eagles actually had seven runners in the top 10 in a dominating performance. SEE BENTON, P31

The Norris Penrose course is regarded as one of the state’s more difficult courses. “It’s a very different course,” said Fitzsimmons. “There’s a lot more dirt and there are some different hills. But I feel that every course
is what you make of it and that one is pretty fun. This will be my third year of running on it and I’m excited to be back on it.” Dakota Ridge is the favorite and could be feeling pressure in the 5A boys team competition. The Eagles were 24 points better than secondplace Mountain Vista in winning the Region 2 meet on Oct. 18. Valor Christian junior Cole Sprout, the defending 4A state champion, will draw most of the
attention as one of the top runners this season in 5A, but he will be challenged for the state title by Dakota Ridge’s Austin Vancil.

So, I asked her what she thought about changing the saying from, “Work smarter, not harder” to “Work smarter, take the pressure off.” Her first and immediate response was, “I have never given myself permission to take the pressure off.” I am not saying that we don’t have to work hard or that we shouldn’t work hard.

When the children of our community grow up and move on, how will they remember their education here? Will they speak with pride or of the crumbling buildings and leaky pipes? Will they be able to reminisce with younger siblings about a shared, memorable teacher or will the constant churning of instructors be what they recall? Will they remember a community that nurtured its youngest or one of indifference? We, as a community, have incredible power to shape our schools and build a future that protects our most vulnerable citizens, our children. We are at a decisive moment. It’s up to us, the voters, to determine the future for 68,000 students. A mistake will linger in their memories. “Generations do not cease to be born,” James Baldwin wrote, “and we are responsible to them…the moment we break faith with one another, the sea engulfs us and the light goes out.” Our family will keep the faith. We will vote yes on 5A and 5B. We see the needs of this generation’s students and we can’t fail them. We look to our neighbors with hope that they will do the same, that this is who we are. Lena Brown Unincorporated Douglas County Tax hike would hurt seniors I am a strong supporters of teachers and I don’t believe they are paid enough. I read several of the articles that appeared in the Oct. 11 issue and I noticed that the amount that would raise my property taxes was adjusted down to a monthly amount. Very smart, but let me address a very real issue. It is my understanding that seniors are now the majority of homeowners in Douglas County. And it is true that the value of our homes have increased. However, unless we sell our homes, we do not benefit from that increase in value and in fact, we are taxed on it! As seniors, we have not had a raise in three years. While we might get one in 2019, I can almost guarantee that it will go to Medicare! The yearly amount of the average tax that a person would pay could be beyond some seniors’ budgets. Perhaps it is time to work with the state in changing how schools are funded. It seems to me a sales tax increase would be better in the long run. This is not my area of expertise, but it is a thought that should be explored. Donna Berti Highlands Ranch Say no to 74 Amendment 74 is one of those pro-
posals that sounds like a good idea but would have horrible consequences. If someone wants to open a pot shop in your neighborhood and the town passes a new law banning such shops, under 74 the property owner could sue the town and win. In fact, all other commercial property owners in the town could argue that the market for their property was reduced and they could sue. Any zoning change made by a town or county would result in numerous lawsuits. Local governments will basically be prevented from making any zoning changes because all such changes would result in someone suing. If a property owner is not allowed to develop his property as he wishes (such as putting a store in a neighborhood that doesn’t want a store) he could sue. If he is allowed, the property owners around him could sue. Local governments will be paralyzed and/or bankrupted. The only winners will be the lawyers that file the flood of lawsuits that would be the result of the passage of 74. Of all the bad ideas I have seen, this is one of the worst, unless you want to be forced to allow pot shops and other development you don’t want into your town. Ronald Curry Parker Vote for Griswold You’ve probably chosen a gubernatorial candidate. What about other statewide offices? Do you know about those candidates and their positions on our important issues? The secretary of state is charged with managing elections including registering voters and protecting every eligible voter’s rights regardless of their politics. The election may be partisan but the responsibilities are not. Jena Griswold is the right person for the job and the only woman on the statewide ballot. She’s a public servant, not a politician, and a voter rights lawyer. She brought hundreds of millions of federal funding dollars to Colorado after the terrible 2013 floods. Jena’s vision for secretary of state includes making it more convenient and easy to vote, and protecting our voter data. She’ll work for automatic voter registration; expanded polling center hours; continuous cybersecurity improvement to repel foreign infiltrators; and better campaign finance transparency so we know the source of Colorado election donations. If these were incumbent Wayne Williams’ goals, they’d have been accomplished in the past four years. Wayne’s priorities concern me. He admitted he still practices as a private attorney, even representing clients suing Colorado. Also,
we taxpayers bought him a $1,500 cowboy outfit. Neither is illegal, but appearances matter. At a time when many Coloradans make far less than Wayne’s $68,500 and are struggling to pay for rent, health care and college, this sets a poor example. Electing Jena will bring strong leadership to better serve the people of Colorado. Deborah Egner Castle Rock Brauchler the right choice In business, experience matters. Most jobs have a minimum experience requirement as business owners are looking for qualified candidates who can hit the ground running day one. Candidates for office are submitting their resume to the voters for consideration. Colorado residents have an important choice for attorney general this November. George Brauchler is the only candidate for AG with decades of experience practicing Colorado law. George has tried hundreds of cases, many of them high-profile. Mr. Brauchler has served as district attorney for the 18th Judicial District with honor and distinction. Colorado needs an AG that will defend our laws against onerous regulations, while defending our water rights, natural resources and our Constitution. George Brauchler’s background as chief of Military Justice and service to our nation exemplify the kind of experienced candidate Colorado deserves. Please join me in voting for George Brauchler for attorney general. Jeff Wasden Highlands Ranch Support setbacks for oil, gas drilling Why support 112? It puts our families’ and kids’ health first, ahead of industry lies. Per independent university research, toxic risks from fracking include neurological, respiratory, hematological, and developmental health issues, a higher risk of cancer, babies born with neural tube defects and congenital heart defects, along with childhood leukemia; plus fires, explosions and blast evacuation zones. Considering that this toxic, heavy industrial operation is rubberstamped by the state, with no known examples of a permit application ever receiving a final denial, there must at least be appropriate buffer zones between those operations and our homes, schools, neighborhoods and families. On jobs, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (not the industry front groups in TV ads), the entire logging and mining sector in Colorado — which includes oil
and gas extraction — employs about 30,000 people, 1% of our entire state labor force, and a far cry from the 200k-plus numbers used in some industry ads. Modern fracking can drill out a mile and a half laterally underground. With 112, they will still be able to access many cubic miles of underground territory from each multi-well pad. A just-released Colorado School of Mines analysis found that, even if only using onemile laterals, “42% of (Colorado’s) non-federal subsurface would (still) be accessible, or nearly three times the available surface area.” We shouldn’t have to accept fracking right next to our homes, schools, playgrounds, and neighborhoods. Please consider all the real facts carefully. I’m confident that, like me, you’ll support and vote for Proposition 112. Harv Teitelbaum Sierra Club Colorado, Oil and Gas Campaign Colorado Rising, advisory board Say no to 112 I’ve worked in the oil and natural gas industry for five years, and before that, I knew nothing about oil and gas. If Proposition 112 was on the ballot back then, I probably would have voted yes. It sounds reasonable — until you read between the lines. Proposition 112 would establish a 2,500-foot setback between new oil and natural gas development and occupied structures or other “vulnerable areas” — the most troubling phrase in the proposition. The definition of “vulnerable areas” includes things like dry creek beds, which is a channel formerly occupied by a stream, and a laundry list of other areas. Can you imagine how many dry creek beds exist in Colorado? I read the full measure and did my research, and while cleverly disguised, it’s irrational. If Prop 112 passes the industry would soon cease to exist in Colorado, because these “vulnerable areas” mean 85 percent of nonfederal surface acreage would be off-limits. If this industry is banned, 147,800 jobs could be lost. After working in oil and gas for five years, I believe in this industry and the people who make it possible. I’m a wife. I’m a mother. I’m a Broncos fan. I’m a craft beer lover. I’m a fitness enthusiast. I’m not “big oil.” The industry is your neighbors, your friends and your fellow Coloradans who love this state. I am Colorado oil and gas and I’m afraid for my livelihood. Please vote no on Proposition 112. Rachel McNerney Parker

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A meeting of the minds on a workplace project might well develop into something more personal for Librans looking for romance. Aspects also are favorable for platonic relationships. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) A more-positive mood might be difficult to assume in light of a recent problem involving the health of someone special. But by week’s end, your emotional barometer should start to rise. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Look for a changed attitude from a former adversary once he or she realizes you have your colleagues’ full support. Now you can refocus your energies on that workplace project. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) This time, a difference of opinion might not be resolved in your favor. But be patient. It could all ultimately work out to your advantage, as new information begins to develop. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) A tug of war develops between the artistic Aquarian’s creative aspect and his or her practical side. Best advice: Prioritize your schedule so you can give appropriate time to both. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You could be entering a career phase awash with job-related demands. But avoid being swamped by the overflow and, instead, keep treading water as you deal with demands one by one. BORN THIS WEEK: You are an exceptionally loyal person, and you’re respected for your ability to keep the secrets entrusted to you.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You enjoy the attention early in the week, but it might be a good idea to opt for some privacy by week’s end so that you can have more time to consider an upcoming decision. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You unearth some surprising facts. Now you need to consider how to use them to your advantage. Meanwhile, it might be best to keep what you’ve learned secret for now. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A comment by a colleague piques your curiosity to know more. Best advice: You’ll find people more likely to offer information if you’re discreet when making your inquiries. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Your energy levels begin to rise by midweek. This allows you to catch up with your heavy workload and still have plenty of get-up-and-go to go out on the town this weekend. LEO (July 23 to August 22) You’re probably roaring your head off about a perceived slight from a longtime critic. Ignore it. That person might just be trying to goad you into doing something you might later regret. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) The early part of the week is open to spontaneity. Then it’s time to settle into your usual routine to get all your tasks done. A personal situation could require more attention from you.

Without public notices, the government wouldn’t have to say anything else.
Public notices are a community’s window into the government. From zoning regulations to local budgets, governments have used local newspapers to inform citizens of its actions as an essential part of your right to know. You know where to look, when to look and what to look for to be involved as a citizen. Local newspapers provide you with the information you need to get involved.
Notices are meant to be noticed. Read your public notices and get involved!
