Oh Christmas tree, how ugly are thy branches? Castle Rock residents hold contest to determine ‘ugliest Christmas tree’ BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
While many people are preparing to deck out their homes with holiday décor and festive Christmas lights, one group of Castle Rock residents is encouraging their neighbors to get weird, wacky and yes, even ugly, with their decorations. Three families who live on Whispering Oak Drive in Castle Rock have launched a competition for anyone living along their street in which people
are challenged to decorate a tree in their yard as uniquely as possible. The contest began Nov. 17 and families must have decorated a tree by Dec. 15 to enter. Judges will pick a winner, whose trophy will be a giant ornament to hang on their tree next year. “The wackier, the tackier, the better,” said Maggie Scivicque-Spencer, one of the organizers behind the contest. Scivicque-Spencer lives across the street from Lauren Barnes, who was her inspiration for the contest. For five years, Barnes has decorated a tree in her family’s front yard with the oddest assortment of Christmas lights she could find, including a string of chili peppers that became an annual fixture. “It’s kind of whimsical chaos,” Barnes said.
In Scivicque-Spencer’s household, Barnes’ tree became known as the kickoff to the Christmas season, she said. This year, Scivicque-Spencer and fellow neighbor Teresa Martin decided to make the ugly Christmas tree a streetwide contest. Barnes brought the tradition with her from her previous home of Richmond, Virginia, where her mother decorates an ugly Christmas tree each year. There’s also a street of Colonialstyle houses, she said, that’s wellknown for putting up elaborate lights. She thinks the ugly Christmas tree tradition helps “inspire the imagination” and generates holiday spirit, she said. Scivicque-Spencer and Martin handed out 100 fliers ahead of Castle Rock’s annual Starlighting on Nov. 17.
MY NAME IS program. Myself and our other coach, Jordan, first plan on increasing this program with more dancers who are passionate to be on a dance team. We want to create a great brand for Castle View with help from future sponsors, community service and more. Of course, our ultimate goal is to become reigning state champions.
EMILY SILVERMAN
New head coach of Castle View dance team looks to grow program About me I grew up in Denver and attended Cherry Creek High School. I was on their poms team for four years and became one of the first athletes to complete all four years on the varsity pom team. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Judaic Studies at the University of Arizona and was on their Black n’ Blue Hip Hope Crew for three years. I was a Universal Dance Association instructor for three years, including being Castle View High School’s instructor for two years. I am now working at Starstruck Academy of Dance where I grew up dancing since the age of 3. My passion I got passionate about dance team athletics from being on one myself. I loved being on a dance team in high school. Being able
Emily Silverman is the new head coach of Castle View High School’s poms dance team. COURTESY PHOTO to wear a uniform and stand in front of my peers representing my school was so exciting for me, and I love to help others to feel the same way. Being a Universal Dance Association instructor gave me the chance to work with multiple teams and help them bond as a team and increase their skills for the year. My new job I just took the position as head coach of the Castle View pom team and I could not be more proud of and excited for this
Getting involved as a team As a poms team, it’s very important to be involved with the community. There are so many opportunities that we can help with as a team. We will do much more community service, including Race for the Cure and the Walk for Alzheimer’s. We will also be doing a lot of junior camps to give younger dancers the passion to become future Castle View pom dancers. My mantras I have two mantras in life: “Dance like everyone is watching” and “Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s learning to dance in the rain.” If you have suggestions for My Name Is…, contact Jessica Gibbs at jgibbs@coloradocommunitymedia.com.
They got some giggles from people in the process, Martin said, but are hoping to see 100 houses participate in the contest. “We just want our neighborhood to come together for the holidays,” Scivicque-Spencer, adding she believes it’s a stress-free competition. “It’s unique. It’s less pressure than, `Who has the best Christmas lights?’” The women said families without a tree in their front yard can decorate a bush, their porch or in some other way, and they hope people throughout town come to enjoy the finished products. Barnes said she is excited to see what her friends might start with. “I think it’s going to be fun to see the different takes on it and what people come up with,” she said. “I really hope people get involved.”
Thousands of wreaths needed for veterans’ graves STAFF REPORT
For 26 years, wreaths have been placed on the graves of veterans buried in U.S. cemeteries. However, last year just one in five veterans’ graves in Colorado received wreaths, according to David Bolser, CEO of Senior Veterans Inc., a Colorado Springs-based charity leading the wreath campaign. More than 160,000 veterans are buried in Colorado’s cemeteries, and the mission of Senior Veterans Inc. “is to ensure that every veteran’s grave in a Colorado cemetery will receive a wreath this December,” Bolser said in a news release. Every $15 wreath that is placed on a veteran’s grave is donated, and the wreaths are handcrafted from Balsam fir and finished with a hand-tied red, velvet bow, the release said. The wreaths are shipped from Columbia Falls, Maine, by volunteer trucking companies, and volunteers place the wreaths on graves on Dec. 15, which is National Wreaths Across America Day, the release said. To donate a wreath, go to www.coloradohonor.com. All donations must be received no later than Monday, Dec. 3. The tradition of placing wreaths on veterans’ graves began when a small Maine wreathmaker found himself with a surplus of wreaths at the end of the holiday season. Rather than discarding the wreaths, arrangements were made to place them on gravestones in an older section of Arlington National Cemetery. Today, more than 1,400 cemeteries in all 50 states participate in National Wreaths Across America Day.

Castle Rock residents restore mural after graffiti Vandalism targets Trump, military on painting beneath bridge BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
When a threat to the president, antimilitary messages, anarchy symbols and a reference to George Orwell’s dystopian novel “1984” appeared scrawled over an American flag mural in Castle Rock, police asked for the public’s help in gathering information about the vandalism. The well-known “American Heroes” mural is located beneath the bridge on Meadows Parkway leading into The Meadows and depicts a waving American flag with silhouetted military figures. Graffiti discovered on Nov. 16 included messages written over the figures such as “No justice, no peace, EVER!” and “Welcome to 1984.” Another expletive-filled line read “Kill him” in reference to President Donald Trump. By Nov. 21, police still didn’t know who defaced the mural or why, said Castle Rock Police Department spokesman Joe Cybert. No cameras are in the area and tips hadn’t turned up a suspect. “We’ve been in consultation with the United States Secret Service,” Cybert said regarding the threat to
Among messages painted over the mural were anarchy symbols.

The department has also seen the “1984” reference on social media before but does not believe there’s a connection to the “American Heroes” incident, he said. While the investigation got underway, Castle Rock residents were quick to act in restoring the mural. An estimated 75 community members gathered under the bridge on Nov. 21 to paint over the graffiti. Among them were members of the police department, local Boy Scouts and veterans. The “American Heroes” mural was
originally painted by Janene DiRicoCable, Ken Cable and Bruce Makinney as part of the police department’s Art Around the Rock project. The program began in 2014 and aimed to deter crime — including graffiti — by installing public art throughout town. DiRico-Cable said she “got cold chills” when she heard how many community members gathered to restore her mural. She painted several murals in the Art Around the Rock program, dedicating more than 400 hours to the project.
“For this to happen to one of the murals is sickening but to have the community come out and actually say, ‘This is not right,’ I love that,” DiRicoCable said. “It makes me feel like all of my time was actually well spent and that others value the project and what the police officers are trying to do.” Last year, local Eagle Scout Jefferson Dirks spent hundreds of hours with his father planning and organizing Boy Scout troops to repaint the mural, which had grown weathered since 2014. Dirks, now a 16-year-old junior at Douglas County High School, was back Nov. 21 to help the latest restoration efforts. SEE MURAL, P4

Sage Canyon students help feed families in need Children collect enough items for 32 Thanksgiving meals BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The week before Thanksgiving, Paula Bishop’s third-grade classroom at Sage Canyon Elementary School in Castle Rock resembled a mini grocery store. Items for the perfect Thanksgiving meal — canned vegetables, boxed goods, marshmallows, a baking sheet for a turkey — lined the tables. Each day of the week, Bishop’s students carefully packed bags with enough food to feed a family of four, along with a gift card to be used for a turkey, eggs and butter, and a handwritten note. “I hope your family has a great Thanksgiving and that your family is healthy,” Celia Palazzolo, an 8-yearold, wrote on a piece of paper. “I hope your family has a nice Thanksgiving,” Collin Thompson, also 8 years old, wrote. On Nov. 19, teachers and parents delivered the bags — along with winter items from the school’s lost and found — to College View Elementary School in Denver, where 98 percent of students qualify for free or reduced lunches. Sage Canyon students helped feed and provide warm clothing for 32 families in need this holiday season. “It’s really great to see their smiles,” said Erin Mulcahy, dean at College View Elementary. “We are so grateful for families to come together and make this possible for our families that are less fortunate.” The food drive was the first of its kind at Sage View Elementary. Bishop said she was inspired by the words of her pastor, “What is and what should be.” She sent an email to parents a few weeks before the holiday, and the response was overwhelming. Bishop’s students are learning that

Students at Sage View Elementary School in Castle Rock prepare bags with enough items to provide a full Thanksgiving meal to families in need. it is privilege to live in Castle Rock, she said. “Having their hands on the food makes a difference, rather than just writing a check,” Bishop said. “When you do something kind for someone else, that makes you feel good as well.”

“I would be lying if I said I wasn’t a little angered,” he said in reacting to the vandalism. “But I moved past that quickly.” Dirks believed the only way to make things right, he said, was to be productive and join efforts to clean up the graffiti. He plans to check on the mural in a few weeks to help monitor its maintenance. Vance Nixon — a U.S. Army veteran — also took part in the cleanup. Wearing camouflage pants and a gray “ARMY” T-shirt, The Meadows resident said he was grateful to the people helping Nov. 21. Nixon served in the U.S. Army for 10 years and completed three tours in Iraq. One reason he moved to Castle Rock was the community support for veterans, he said.
Volunteers scaled a steep incline under the Meadows Parkway bridge to repaint the American Heroes mural. Kevin Bracken, the recently elected District 3 town councilmember, also brought his daughter to help. With a paint roller in hand, Bracken said he came to support the town’s veterans. Cybert said anyone with information is encouraged to contact police. The department’s tip line is

Gray declared winner in Castle Rock mayor race Victor says he is ‘happy and excited to serve’ BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The mayoral candidate in Castle Rock who had trailed one of his opponents by less than a percentage point since Nov. 6 has now edged to a lead in the race and has been declared the victor by the Town of Castle Rock. Mayor-elect Jason Gray led Randy Reed by 57 votes as of Nov. 15, when Douglas County posted the final count of unofficial election results. More than 27,000 people voted in the election, which named Castle Rock’s first at-large mayor in approximately 30 years. Official results won’t be available until they are certified on Nov. 26, but
the count as it stands will not trigger an automatic recount, according to a Douglas County spokeswoman. By state law, a recount is called if the difference between the highest number of votes cast and the next highest number of votes cast is less than or equal to one-half of one percent of the highest vote cast. “I’m happy and excited to serve Castle Rock. I really am,” Gray said Nov. 16. “I felt it was a really good race and I’m glad I have a good relationship with Randy and Charles and of course I’m glad at how it turned out.” Charles Fletcher, the Gray third man to run for mayor, took home 18.5 percent of votes. He said Nov. 6 he was happy with the campaign he ran and planned to stay involved in the community.
Reed said he conceded to Gray the morning of Nov. 16 and wishes him “the very best.” “I offered to him that if I can help or assist him in any way, feel free to call on me,” he said. “I think it was a very good, positive race. I’m very excited and encouraged that as many people voted as they did.” The county posted multiple updates to the Reed vote count and results between Nov. 6 and Nov. 9 as they attempted to process tens of thousands of ballots that were cast the day before and the day of the midterm. The election marked Douglas County’s largest voter turnout in a midterm to date. More than 179,500 ballots were voted countywide. With each update, Gray inched
closer and closer to pulling ahead of Reed, who had maintained a narrow lead until Nov. 15 when Gray secured the win. On Election Night, neither Gray nor Reed was surprised by the narrowness of the race. Both said they expected it to be close. Reed said he would wait and watch to see if results remained in his favor, a they did in those early returns, while Gray said he was hopeful they would sway the opposite way. “It was nerve-wracking and exciting at the same time. It was fun,” Gray said Nov. 16 in reflecting on the days that followed the first batch of results. As he transitions into the role of mayor, Gray said he hopes the town will see the at-large mayor system as a step in the right direction. “I’d like to see the town kind of unite,” he said, “and just more forward in a positive direction.”

Starlighting draws crowd for annual tradition

STAFF REPORT
The 14th Annual Turkey ROCK Trot swept through Castle Rock on Thanksgiving Day, bringing more than 3,500 community members out for a day of running, walking and celebrating the holiday. The 5K Family Fun Run helped raise funds for the Help & Hope Center, which assists families and individuals in need. The fun run began and ended at the Douglas County Fairgrounds, 500 Fair-
grounds Road. Members of the Castle Rock Bible Church devoted generous money and time to help the event grow throughout the years, said co-organizer Jason Anguiano. Last year the event had 2,800 participants. “What an honor it has been to be part of a great family event year after year,” said Pastor Mark Marble from Castle Rock Bible Church in a statement, adding they have seen the event “grow from humble beginnings to quite a spectacle.”
Q&A with schools’ new chief academic officer Marlena Gross-Taylor’s role will be curriculum alignment BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Douglas County School District Superintendent Thomas Tucker has hired a chief academic officer to oversee curriculum across the school district. Autonomy in the classroom will continue, Tucker said at a Nov. 13 school board meeting, along with a push for students to develop a deep understanding of curriculum at the district and state level. “There is a gap between taught curriculum, written curriculum and assessed curriculum,” Tucker said.
“Those three levels of curriculum must go together.” Marlena Gross-Taylor comes in at a starting salary of $169,000. That is about $20,000 to $25,000 less than what a deputy superintendent would make, Tucker said. Tucker is the school district’s sole superintendent, which is uncommon for a Grossdistrict as large as DougTaylor las County, with more than 68,000 students. Gross-Taylor is a nationally recognized speaker and the founder of Edugladiators LLC, a consulting business for educators and district leaders on best practices in the classroom. SEE SCHOOLS, P38

Colorado finalizes tough future emission standards BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Colorado is joining 13 other states and the District of Columbia in adopting Low Emission Vehicle Standards, requiring new vehicles starting with the 2022 model year to meet strict standards for fuel economy and exhaust emissions. The Colorado Air Quality Control Commission’s vote took place on Nov. 16. One of the nine commissioners was recused from the vote, and it passed 8-0. “This is a win for the state,” said Anita Seitz, a Westminster city councilor and the president of Colorado Communities for Climate Action, a coalition of Colorado governments that advocates for state and federal policies to protect Colorado’s climate. “Colorado has been a leader in this area, and it’s imperative that we continue. This is what our residents demand.” The Colorado Air Quality Control Commission’s decision will provide Coloradans with cleaner air and reduce the impacts of climate change, said Jacob Smith, the executive director of Colorado Communities

In a press release, Tim Jackson, the president and CEO of the Colorado Automobile Dealers Association, said the biggest negative impact will be on working families and the economically disadvantaged. Jackson estimates that the lowemission vehicle standards will “add a $2,110 tax to the sticker price of average new vehicles in Colorado,” and that the tax amount will be even higher on “the SUVs and trucks that Coloradans prefer.” “The commission seemed to have made its mind up before this rule-

making process even started — rapidly pushing though this complex rule that will cost our state and citizens billions of dollars without taking the necessary time to fully evaluate its impacts,” Jackson said in the press release. “Unfortunately, it is Colorado’s consumers who will ultimately pay the price for this misguided decision.” One thing that the Colorado Automobile Dealers Association and its members are already doing to make progress for cleaner air is the work of the Clear the Air Foundation. The foundation works with state automobile dealers to donate the vehicles, traded in by consumers, that emit dirty emissions and recycles them. “When you consider that the exhaust from just one 15-year-old vehicle is equal to that of 100 new vehicles on the road today, new car dealers can put 350,000 new vehicles on the road and still have a net improvement in air quality,” said Bill Hellman, chair of the Clear the Air Foundation and owner of Hellman Motor Company in Delta. “Colorado’s new automobile dealers have been walking the talk (and) making concrete progress to clear Colorado’s air.” The nation’s clean car standards, trailblazed by California, were set nationally in 2012 under President Barack Obama. These standards require automakers to ensure that motor vehicles including cars, pickup trucks and SUVs are more fuel-efficient and achieve ongoing improvements, including lower emissions. On Aug. 2, President Donald Trump’s administration announced plans to roll back emissions and fuel-economy standards for car model years 2022-25 and attempt to override the ability for states to set their own stricter standards to protect clean air. However, Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper signed an executive order on June 19 titled “Maintaining Progress on Clean Vehicles.” It directed the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment to develop a rule that establishes a Colorado Low Emission Vehicle program, then propose it to the Colorado Air Quality Control Commission for possible adoption. With
the commission’s Nov. 16 decision, this program will be adopted into the Colorado Code of Regulations. Ultimately, beginning with model year 2022, Colorado will have the standards already in place, and it will protect Colorado from having to adhere to Trump’s proposed emissions rollbacks. The Colorado Air Pollution Control Division estimates that the Trump administration’s proposed rollback on emission standards would result in an additional 30.38 million tons of carbon pollution between 2022-2031, Smith said. “We are talking about a huge amount of dirty emissions,” he said. “By adopting the Low Emission Vehicle Standards, we will prevent the same amount of carbon pollution in Colorado that we’d get in a decade from two of our largest coal power plants now running in Pueblo.” The next step Colorado needs to move forward with for cleaner air is adopting zero-emission vehicle standards, Seitz said. Zero-emission vehicles run on power sources such as electricity and hydrogen fuel cells. If adopted, this would “mandate an increasing percentage of all light- and medium-duty motor vehicles sold in Colorado to be Zero Emission Vehicles,” states the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s website. “The Air Pollution Control Division is exploring approaches to a proposed rule that would impose sales quotas on vehicle manufacturers, thus increasing the percentage of zero emission vehicles in Colorado.” Consideration of the zero-emission vehicle standards is expected to begin relatively soon, Smith added, and could wrap up as early as this spring. “Combine our air pollution problem with our outdoor Colorado lifestyle, and parents across the state want to see real improvement in our air quality,” said Jen Clanahan, the “head mom” for Colorado Moms Know Best, a statewide grassroots group that advocates for children’s health by protecting Colorado’s open spaces and clean air. “Several other states follow the Low Emission Vehicle Standards, and we believe our children deserve those same protections afforded to kids in other states.”

When products are sealed, there’s a failure to yield
admit there were no witnesses. I hope by now, however, you can trust me, even though I did steer a lot of investors in the wrong direction on that chicken-flavored chewing gum project of mine. Earlier today, I opened a new jar of (creamy) peanut butter with my bare hands. I did it on the first try. I did it without going into training for a week. I opened it without grunting or groaning, tapping it first with a knife, or holding it under hot water. I held the jar in my left hand,
and used the fingers on my right hand to twist the top and remove it. This exposed the product, some of which I consumed on a small sheet of bread. It was a historic moment in my kitchen. The dog went to a neutral corner when I shouted, “Godfrey Daniel.” Just about everything else, every cheese, every cracker, every box, tin, container, takes my complete focus, and tests my will. “EZ Open”? There is no such thing. As I have said in the past, if it
says “EZ Open” it isn’t. They put “EZ Open” on the label because they know it isn’t, and that it puts the onus on me. If it says it’s easy to open and I can’t open it, it’s my fault, not theirs. It’s reverse psychology. As I said, I didn’t have to go into training to open the peanut butter. But when it comes to my favorite pickles, I do reps for a week while the jar sits on the counter and waits for me. My mother — may she rest in peace — used to give jars a try and then ask her strapping husband
to take care of it. This went on for years when I was growing up. Later on, they told me the truth. It was a set-up. Mom could open the jars, but it was her way of giving my father a moment of glory. It was the 1950s, and that’s what wives did back then. Once Helen Reddy came along, however, everything changed. Cheese singles are the inglorious contempt of matter against humanity. There is nothing more infuriating to open. SEE SMITH, P20

A
Colorado Clean Indoor Air Act should address ‘vaping’
disturbing public health trend has been reported in recent months: 26 percent of Colorado’s high school students have used e-cigarettes in the last 30 days, which is double the national average. In fact, out of 38 states GUEST surveyed, Colorado COLUMN had the highest e-cigarette use among high school students. In the Tri-County Health Department’s three counties — Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas — the number of students who have John Douglas ever used an electronic vape product increased more than 200 percent since 2013! The epidemic has grown so much that Gov. John Hickenlooper declared November “Vape-Free” to increase awareness among Colorado’s youth of the damaging, long-term physical and mental effects that ecigarettes have on developing brains. Nicotine addiction from e-cigarettes can lead to cigarette smoking, creating the potential for long-term consequences such as cancer and

Notice I said desserts, plural. But there is something that is more important than our meals, because isn’t it true most of us tend to eat pretty well every day? What is more important is the gratitude that others who aren’t so well-off feel when they too get to have a meal. The appreciation they have for the meals that must be provided for them. And whether we funded those meals, made those meals, served those meals, or delivered those meals, my hope would be that we all felt grateful for having had the opportunity to serve others in some way. You see, being grateful isn’t just reserved for when we get things or assistance, it is also about having gratitude and appreciation for when we have the opportunity to bless and serve others. It is an incredible feeling to give, to give cheerfully and thankfully. You know the feeling I am talking about don’t you? The smile on someone’s face when we help, the firm handshake of the people we are lifting up, the tears of joy in their eye, the warm embrace and hug. And remember what “HUG” stands for, Having Unbelievable Gratitude. What I am talking about here is developing and maintaining the spirit of Thanksgiving and creating a habit of gratitude and appreciation that goes far beyond the holiday. I hope that it is a habit that we will never want to break. We can all show our appreciation more, we can all
heart and lung disease. Colorado isn’t the only state facing this skyrocketing threat. Recently, the commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration declared youth use of e-cigarettes across the country an “epidemic” and a dangerous and intolerable trend. Now is the time to add e-cigarettes to the list of restricted substances indoors as part of the Colorado Clean Indoor Air Act. Not only would this improve air quality for everyone, but it would also help increase awareness of vaping’s harmful effects. E-cigarettes are battery-operated devices that people use to inhale (vape) an aerosol, which typically contain nicotine or other substances such as marijuana, flavorings and harmful chemicals. Extensive research has shown the negative effects of nicotine on developing young brains, such as the impairment of cognitive function and development. When teens become addicted to nicotine, it is more likely they may be addicted for life. It’s no surprise that new e-cigarette products have recently saturated the market and increasingly, they are being heavily advertised and used in public places by people of all ages. Secondhand smoke from these
demonstrate gratitude, we can do it through the simplest of ways too. A simple thank-you, a quick note, a card, a smile, a call, a text, and maybe just doing something to help out in return or pay it forward. Our world could use more people with an attitude of gratitude. Our community could use more people developing a habit of gratitude and appreciation. Our families can all become stronger and closer when we recognize each other and share how blessed we are to be a family. A habit starts when we do. What if today, we all set a goal to live out Thanksgiving each and every day? What if we could change someone’s minute, hour, day or life by showing them a little more gratitude and appreciation? I know that you already know the answer, we would be living in a world that has just a little more love and kindness, a little more love and gentleness, and a little more love and forgiveness. So how about you? I hope you won’t be too surprised if I say Happy Thanksgiving if I run into you somewhere in February, or April, or next September. And I do hope that you will try and create a new attitude of gratitude habit for yourself. As always, I would love to hear your story at gotonorton@gmail.com and when we are successful at creating that new habit, it really will be a better than good life.

products continues to threaten community health, while also contributing to the $1.9 billion in health-care costs associated with smoking each year in Colorado. The only way to fully eliminate exposure to secondhand smoke is to prohibit cigarette tobacco, marijuana smoking, hookah and e-cigarette aerosolizing in all public places and workplaces, including restaurants, bars and casinos, making them 100 percent smoke-free. This also limits youth vulnerability to secondhand smoke and the normalization that comes from exposure to these products. More than 10 years ago, Colorado lawmakers passed a statewide smoke-free policy, the Colorado Clean Indoor Air Act, prohibiting indoor smoking in public places. Five years ago, legislators added marijuana as a restricted substance indoors.
Now in 2018, with the challenges that Colorado faces from growing use of e-cigarettes, it is critical for the legislature to modernize the Clean Indoor Air Act by following the lead of more than 29 Colorado municipalities and 13 states across the country that have already implemented policies to address e-cigarette use in public places. Lawmakers have an important opportunity to modernize our state policy by eliminating all forms of secondhand exposure to nicotine, marijuana and other harmful chemicals in public places. We urge them to move quickly to show leadership regarding this concerning public health threat. John M. Douglas Jr., M.D., is the executive director of the Tri-County Health Department, serving Douglas, Arapahoe and Adams counties.

House of Dior gets
display in Denver
Arvada Center curtain rises on Christmas cheer
O
Building a legacy Christian Dior founded the fashion house at age 42, approximately 10 years before his death. Leading up to the venture, he’d taken up fashion illustration as a way to support himself during the Great Depression, leaving behind a career running art galleries. In 1946 he received the financial backing necessary to open a couture house, and in 1947, Dior the label was born from a townhome at 30 Avenue Montaigne in Paris. The company still operates from this location. Dior rose on the promise of a “New Look,” also the name of its first collection.
ne of the best things about the holiday season is gathering together with family and friends to watch one of the many classic Christmas movies. One of the more recent entries into the canon is the 2003 Will Ferrell film, “ELF.” In 2010, “ELF” made the leap from the silver screen to the Broadway stage, bringing Buddy the Elf to a whole new audience. “I saw that original production and I said, ‘I want to do that,’” remembered Josh Houghton, who is now taking on the titular role in the Arvada Center’s production of the show. “This is a dream show for me as an actor. It’s also one for the audience, because there’s something for everyone in it.” The production of “ELF — The Musical” at the Arvada Center, COMING Wadsworth ATTRACTIONS 6901 Blvd., runs from Nov. 20 through Dec. 23. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesdays through Saturdays, 1 p.m. on Wednesdays and 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. The run will include happy Clarke Reader hours with the cast, insider talkbacks, a sensoryfriendly performance and more. Like the movie, the focus of the show is Buddy — a man who was raised in the North Pole with Santa Claus and his elves. But when Buddy learns that his real father (Mark Devine) lives is New York City and, even more shockingly, is a human, Buddy heads south to meet his new family. In addition to learning where he came from, Buddy also might discover love with Jovie (Leslie Hiatt). “Audiences will still be able to see many of the iconic moments that they know from the movie,” Hiatt said. “Through many technological amazements and the gorgeous costumes, we’re able to bring this story to life. It’s a great family show and so easy to watch.” Unlike the film, the show features songs by Tony Award nominees Matthew Sklar and Chad Beguelin, with book by Tony Award winners Thomas Meehan and Bob Martin. So, even those who can quote the movie at the drop of a hat will find something new to entertain and delight them. “This is a Christmas show, but the theme goes beyond that. It’s really

Müller, a fashion and art historian, has worked on 15 exhibits about Dior in her career but said this one was “shaped for Denver.” Half of the 15 rooms follow a chronological timeline of the fashion house’s seven creative directors. The other half are thematic. Each designer to follow Christian Dior — Yves-Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, John Galliano, Raf Simons and the present director Maria Grazia Chiuri — brought their own vision to the brand while still paying homage to the founder, Müller said.

ashion fans need wait no longer for the Denver Art Museum’s latest showcase of high fashion and its place in the art world. “Dior: From Paris to the World” opened Nov. 19 and runs through March 3. The exhibit marks the first major retrospective of the House of Dior in the United States, meaning it highlights nearly all 70 years of the brand’s existence. It’s not a traveling show and was curated especially for the Denver Art Museum, featuring some pieces rarely seen outside Europe. “This is really an exciting and amazing moment,” said the Frederick and Jan Mayer Director of the Denver Art Museum, Christoph Heinrich, three days ahead of the exhibit’s grand opening. The project took more than two years to plan and bring to fruition, project leads said. Dressing the mannequins alone took a team of 12 people one month to complete.

Art gallery becomes a market for holiday gifts
A
new sort of exhibit in Town Hall Arts Center’s Stanton Gallery in Littleton is called “Merry at the Market.” Co-curator Moira Casey has collected smaller artworks by nine artists, which she claims transforms Scrooge’s SONYA’S “Bah! Humbug!” SAMPLER to “Buy Humbug.” The exhibit, with 20 percent of sales benefiting Town Hall, offers small two- and threedimensional pieces and greeting cards that will make very special original gifts for many on readers’ Sonya Ellingboe lists for the holidays. The gallery is open weekdays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and during productions (Thursday, Friday, Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon). A special artists’ reception is Dec. 1, from 1 to 8 p.m., when many artists will be present to talk about their work. Light refreshments are promised and a visitor can talk with artists about their work — perhaps you’d be interested in another similar item? Casey notes that the show will be constantly evolving since as items sell, they will be replaced with new and different ones, so more than one visit is in order. Artists: Nancy Larner, Lois Barber, Sunny Monaco, Csilla Florida, Tammy Medsker, Maryann Leake Baisley, Stacy Robinson, Janis Gold,blatt and Anna Marie Linning. Town Hall is at 2450 W. Main St. in downtown Littleton. 303-794-2787, townhallartscenter.org.

As part of his Here We Go tour, Brennan will be performing at the Oriental Theater, 4335 W. 44th Ave. in Denver at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 1. Brennan’s 2017 Netflix special, “3 Mics” is one of the funniest and most unique stand-up approaches I’ve seen in a long time.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Childish Gambino at the Pepsi Center Who would’ve figured when Donald Glover first popped up on our radar as a writer on “30 Rock” and actor on “Community” that he would become one of the most important artists? As musician Childish Gambino, he started as a relatively down-the-middle rapper, dropping literate and pop culture friendly verses with references to Dragon Ball Z. As he evolved, he started adding jazz and funk into his sound, culminating in last year’s Grammy-nominated “Awaken, My Love!” and show-stopping single, “This is America.” Plus, his FX show “Atlanta” is just relentlessly good. All of this makes his rescheduled performance at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 4 at the Pepsi Center, 1000 Chopper Circle, with Vince Staples one of the last can’t-miss concerts of 2018. Staples is one of the best and most innovative rappers working right now, and also happens to be funnier than most comedians. He released an EP called “FM!” this year that is among the year’s best rap releases. For tickets to this stellar pairing, visit www.pepsicenter.com.

The House of Dior has drawn international inspiration in its designs, a point highlighted in the final showroom of the Dior: From Paris to the World exhibit. JESSICA GIBBS
DIOR FROM PAGE 14
The collection offered women feminine, glamorous styles craved by many in the postwar era and which starkly contrasted with the masculine shapes worn during World War II. The first room of the exhibit begins here. Two rows of nearly all-black ensembles from the New Look collection flank the walkway that leads visitors from the exhibit entrance back through time. One line features full skirts and the other narrow silhouettes. Some criticized this first collection, pegging it as wasteful luxury, according to the Denver Art Museum, while others took offense to the sensual designs. Many New Look pieces featured emphasized busts, accentuated hips and slim waists. Still, the house created a lasting legacy and has attracted some of the most famous women in history to its doors, hence the exhibit room dubbed “Ladies in Dior.” Grace Kelly wore Dior for her engagement announcement, Marilyn Monroe wore Dior in her last photo shoot and Elizabeth Taylor was among actresses who wore the fashion house’s designs. Other current names like Charlize Theron, Jennifer Lawrence, Natalie Portman and Rihanna are but some of the famous women to don Dior pieces today. Dresses worn by each can be found at the exhibit. More recently, Michelle Obama wore an all-Dior outfit on the cover of Elle magazine’s December issue, and model Karlie Kloss wore a custom Dior dress for her October wedding to Joshua Kushner. Going global Dior forged a global reach — the result of strategic business moves that earned Christian Dior a reputation for pioneering key aspects of the fashion industry. “This house was always on the top of the game of the fashion world,” Müller said. He championed offering women with everything they would need to complete an outfit in one boutique. From lip colors to shoes and jewelry, the exhibit outlines this approach to fashion in a showroom
IF YOU GO “Dior: From Paris to the World” is on display at the Denver Art Museum from Nov. 19 through March 3. Located on Level 2 of the Hamilton Building, 100 W 14th Avenue Parkway in Denver, tickets are available for purchase online at denverartmuseum.org or by calling 720-913-0130. Parking is available in the Cultural Center Complex Garage at 12th Avenue and Broadway. called “The Total Look.” Dior also took his fashion house global by licensing other companies to manufacture products under Dior’s control and establishing locations in countries including the United States, Mexico, Chile and ultimately on five continents. Christian Dior and his time around the world can be seen and felt in designs throughout the fashion house’s history. This largely inspired the exhibit’s finale — a large room with stair-like platforms that stack internationally influenced designs high above the floor. The exhibit was designed by architecture firm OMA New York and led by Shohei Shigematsu, partner and director of OMA New York. The team drew inspiration from Christian Dior’s life and from the Denver Art Museum’s Hamilton Building, merging the two worlds of classical Paris and contemporary Denver. Walkways mimic paths from Christian Dior’s private home and garden, and backdrops are built of raw aluminum, mirroring the Denver Art Museum’s modern exterior. “I think it gives a very interesting environment, an immersive environment,” Shigematsu said. Müller said it’s difficult to pick a favorite or most significant piece featured in the exhibit but praised a taffeta evening ensemble worn by Rihanna in 2017 and designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri. Most significant may be the New Look collection, she said, calling it “the manifesto” of Dior. Heinrich said the museum hopes their exhibit draws people to Denver and showcases the artform of haute couture. On Nov. 16 Müller said she was eager for people to see the show but was sad to think about their time working on it coming to a close. “The opening of the exhibit is almost,” she said, “the end of the adventure.”

America,” said Vinny Fiacco, who is coowner and general manager at APEX Movement’s gym in Denver, 700 W. Mississippi Ave. Athletes now recognize Colorado as home to one of the most thriving parkour communities. “I stole a couple coaches from gyms in different states, and it’s because they wanted to be a part of a community that’s growing,” Arrington said. As for why the Colorado parkour community started growing to begin with, he suggested the state’s reputation for progressiveness may have something to do with it. “We’re pretty forward when it comes to the way that we think,” he said. “We have a state that’s very accepting of the outliers.” Although the increase in popularity is focused in states like Colorado, the sport is gaining momentum all across the nation, Fiacco said.

Ken Arrington, founder of parkour gym Path Movement, knows that parkour — in which athletes often scale walls, make 9-foot leaps and traverse rails 10 feet off the ground — has a bad reputation for being dangerous. That’s why he keeps close tabs on the safety at his gym. He’s managed to keep injuries to a minimum. He said that out of 17,289 customer visits at the Littleton gym, there have only been three instances of broken bones. “All people see is these kids running around on rooftops and breaking the law,” he said, “but when parkour is done correctly and taught correctly, it is safer than most sports.” In Arrington’s 6,000-square-foot facility at 8000 S. Lincoln St., students can try their hand at a variety of feats. The gym is a collection of boxes, rails, rings and a 14-foot “warped wall,” all of which Arrington built himself. He often rearranges the equipment so students can have new experiences. Path Movement is one of many parkour gyms in Colorado, a state which several outlets have called a hotspot for the top sites at which to practice parkour. American Parkour, for instance, named the University of Colorado at Boulder the fourth best location for parkour athletes in America. APEX Movement also named Colorado one of the top 10 states for parkour based on the number of times Coloradans have searched for the terms “parkour” and “freerunning” on Google. Colorado was one of the first adopters of the sport in the Western Hemisphere. In fact, the first parkour classes on this side of the world were taught in 2006 by APEX Movement on the CU-Boulder campus. APEX has since opened three gyms in Colorado and two in California. “APEX was definitely the first gym in Colorado, and the second gym in

‘Ritual’ theme ties together art show at museum Own an Original exhibit features 46 works by 33 artists
“Rejoice,” a painting by Nathan Abel, won Best of Show in the 2018 Own an Original Exhibition at the Littleton Museum, through Jan. 6.
BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
PHOTO BY NATHAN ABELS
When the annual call for artists went out for Littleton Fine Art Board’s annual Own an Original exhibit, submissions came in for considerably more than 200 works of art, from 68 Colorado artists. Juror Joshua Feld, a recent addition to the faculty at Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design, spent hours in a dark room reviewing each entry — all supposed to explore the concept of “Ritual.” He selected 46 works by 33 artists to appear in the 2018 exhibit, which opened Nov. 16 and continues until Jan. 6 at the Littleton Museum. Originally conceived by the Fine Arts Board as a showcase for Littleton artists, and fine craftsmen, the Own an Original show increasingly attracts artists from across the metro area and beyond. Feld’s position as assistant professor of foundations and fine art and the self-described personal work — “a distinctly dream-like quality, utilizing familiar images — creates a highly surreal, poetic narrative” — is apparent in his choices for the longtime exhibit, which debuted in the 1960s. Feld
said his judgment and awards focused on rituals: Mystical (the concert with religious overtones). Domestic and related to the artistic process — “In my own practice, coffee comes before studio… I have a few little superstitions in the studio.” Repetition gives a sense of comfort out of something serious, he said. Lithography is an example, with repeated images. (Note the third-place winner.) The level of presentation in this show is increasingly more sophisticated, the selection of fine crafts is increasingly slimmer and OAO no longer seems like a gift-oriented exhibit. (As opposed to the new “Christmas Market” exhibit at Town Hall Arts Center, accompanying “Christmas Carol: the Musical,” with a number of small paintings and crafts — ornaments, for example — which are clearly pointed in that direction and

invite a visit.) In addition to lots of entries, the exhibit always attracts a largely enthusiastic and mostly genial opening night crowd — with good weather an added plus factor on Nov. 15. The lobby and gallery were full and in constant motion. Feld awarded the top Best of Show prize to Arapahoe Community College faculty member/painter Nathan Abels, who is listed as Coordinator: Art, Drawing, Design. Abels said his painting, “Rejoice,” which hangs to the right of the gallery entrance, was from a series completed earlier this year, “that combined faith in technology with religious faith.” (He had an exhibit, “History of the Future,” at Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art.) “I worked from a photograph of an evangelical worship service/concert and an image of SpaceX rocket taking off. Many contemporary Americans are convinced that technology can and will alleviate any impending disaster, including climate change, fossil fuel dependence, hunger, poverty, etc.” He went on to comment that “other pieces in the show have similar themes including a variation on traditional `adoration’ paintings where the wise man is kneeling over an iPad and a painting that substitutes flying drone arrangements for stars in the sky over a Stonehenge-like circle.” The Littleton Museum’s exhibit curator Kevin Oehler had ample space to hang this exhibit and the lighting seemed especially effective to me. Each work invites a bit of the viewer’s time to try to interpret an artist’s thoughtful process in creating a message about ritual — several artworks
include figures in clearly ritualistic dress, such as First The Littleton Place winner “The Museum is at 6028 S. Gallup Nurturer of Ghost Birds,” which Feld St., Littleton. Hours: 8 a.m. to said “immediately 5 p.m. Tuesdays grabbed my attention” to what at first to Fridays; 10 might seem to be a a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays; 1 to portrait or pattern, 5 p.m. Sundays. but has a deeper meaning. Admission is The First Place free and there work, by Robyn Peterare other exhibits to see, son, is a most engaging black-and-white including a pair of historic depiction of a stern, obviously ritualistic farms. 303-795-3950. figure. One can almost hear drumbeats behind him and picture an unseen crowd in front of him. Further contemplation will perhaps surface an architectural image in one’s mind, where he might be surrounded by a massive structure and a gob-struck crowd. Second Place award went to Michelle Lamb, Littleton, for her assemblage work, “Cultivation,” which combines found metal items and other objects into a wall-hung composition, including a bouquet of metal roses surrounded by a bit of spiky stuff — tip of fencing, perhaps? Feld said he found a personal involvement with this one. He and his wife moved to Colorado from Massachusetts and bought an older home from an elderly woman who was a gardener. His wife asked him to trim the roses — a new experience — and he emerged from that unfamiliar assignment badly scratched! Trimming those roses just so is indeed a ritual, with some precise guidelines — and it dates back for centuries. Third Place went to Johnny Plastini for his lithograph on paper: “Tachyons in Turbulence,” in warm yellow, oranges, browns — in motion. (Tachyon — a hypothetical particle that always moves faster than light.) Each of the winning works shows outstanding technique — total control of the media involved and excellent craftsmanship, as well as the general composition and design considerations. It’s a rewarding show that invites a second visit — or more.

DOUGLAS COUNTY NONPROFIT GIVING GUIDE
www.DouglasCountyGives.net
Dear Douglas County Residents, Douglas County has strong, vibrant and diverse communities that make it a wonderful place to live. As one of the fastest growing and wealthiest communities in the country, Douglas County also faces challenges with rapid population growth and new residents unfamiliar with local needs or the nonprofits who serve those needs. We are also generous citizens; however, over 60% of our donated dollars in 2017 left our county. The Douglas County Community Foundation is working to change this dynamic and serves as a catalyst for local giving and developing philanthropists of all ages and levels of income by educating and inspiring generosity. Douglas County Gives, a program of the Douglas County Community Foundation, brings together over 40 nonprofits who recognize the strength of an empowered nonprofit community. Each member is a qualified Colorado Gives nonprofit, dedicated to promoting, growing and finding synergies among their organizations through increased awareness and the belief that a “rising tide lifts all boats.” On Colorado Gives Day, December 4th, we encourage Douglas County residents to #GiveWhereYouLive.

We operate a 24-hour crisis line and provide emergency shelter to those in imminent danger, as well as individual and group therapy, legal advocacy, community-based advocacy and referrals to community resources.

Eagles edge Grandview in Class 5A state playoffs BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The Valor Christian-Grandview clash for a spot in the Class 5A state football championship game came down to the wire as the Eagles bested the Wolves 31-29 in the game played Nov. 24 at Legacy Stadium. Valor’s win earned them a spot against Cherry Creek in the title game that will be played at 2 p.m. Dec. 1 at Mile High Stadium in Denver. The Valor win was decided with 32 seconds remaining in the game after Grandview scored a touchdown to pull to within two points. The Wolves went for a two-point conversion that would have tied the score and force overtime. Grandview ran what looked like a pass-run option play. The Wolves’ quarterback threw a pass into the end zone. However, Eagles defender Chase Lopez picked off the attempt to negate the two-point conversion try. The Eagles got possession of the ball on the kickoff, Valor quarterback Luke McCaffrey got the snap and took a knee to run out the clock and earn the Eagles a spot is the state football finals. “I am proud of our kids in a game
that was played in typical Colorado weather that began in the sunshine and ended in a snowstorm,” Valor Coach Ed McCaffrey said after the game. “We won the battle against a great football team. It was tough but our kids hung in there to win and we are going to the state finals.” The coach said all his players contributed to the win and noted the play of Ethan Zemia on both sides of the ball was outstanding. The 6-3, 220-pound senior plays tackle on offense and linebacker on defense. “Today was a battle,” Zemia said after the game. “We got out in front early but they came back to really make it a battle. In the end, we pulled through to get the win.” He said Grandview was big and strong up front but he and his teammates matched them on both sides of the ball. “They are a very good team and it was a battle on both sides of the ball. I play offense and defense but I really like playing defense better,” he said with a smile. “I guess that is because I like the challenge of keeping the other team from moving the ball.” Coming into the game against Grandview, Zemia was Valor’s tackle leader with 84 solos and 40 assists for a total of 124 tackles. He also had seven sacks. In the win over Grandview, Luke
MCaffrey completed 7-of-16 passes for 92 yards and a pair of touchdowns. He also ran the ball nine times for 77 yards and a touchdown. “We are lucky enough to have practice on Monday and to be one of the two teams in state Class 5A still playing football,” he said. “In this game we had been passing the ball well early but the snow and wind made it harder to pass. So we mixed in the run and that touchdown run by Gavin Sawchuk was big for us.” In the early going it looked like Valor was going to walk away with the game, quickly building a 21-0 lead. They scored early on a 52-yard pass play from McCaffrey to Marcus Staples, McCaffrey then threw a touchdown pass to Zain Zincola to make the score 14-0 in the second period. Sawchuk scored on a 39-touchdown run before halftime. All three extra-point kicks were good to make the score 21-0. Before halftime, Grandview scored two touchdowns but only hit one of the two extra-point tries. The Wolves also added a field goal to make the halftime score 21-16 In the third period, McCaffrey escaped rushing defenders and ran 45 yards for a touchdown to make the Score 28-16. Grandview scored a touchdown with 8:19 left in the fourth quarter to make the score 28-23 and Valor kicked a field goal to make it 31-23.

The first- and second-place teams and the top five individuals not on those teams qualify to run in the nationals. Cherry Creek’s Riley Stewart

was seventh in the girls 5,000-meter race but the leading six runners were unaffiliated. Valor Christian’s Cole Sprout, the two-time Colorado state champion, won the boys race with a time of 14:39.1 to edge Mountain Vista’s Easton Allred, who turned in a 14:41.4 clocking. Both runners qualified for the nationals. Vista’s boys team was third at the regionals and was waiting to see it the team could get an at-large invitation to the national meet.

Dear Douglas County Election Staff and Workers: As we wrap up the 2018 general election, I’d like to take a moment to express my thanks and recognize you for working side by side to ensure the integrity of the election process. Together you provided voters with the opportunity to exercise their most fundamental privilege, and voters exercised that right, which was evidenced by the historic mid-term turnout. From the implementation of the election itself, to processing more than 179,500 ballots and tabulating the results, it was your hard work and dedication that ultimately made the elections process a success. During the 2018 general election, our election workforce grew from 12 members of staff to 272, including staff and workers, all who assisted in processing one of the largest ballots in the county’s history. Your dedication to preserving the integrity of this democratic process is appreciated and applauded. As the County’s chief elections officer, please accept my most sincere thanks. Respectfully yours, Merlin Klotz Douglas County Clerk and Recorder

“Ten years ago, there was nothing, and now there’s 100,000 people doing it,” he said. Staying safe For both gyms, the increase in popularity means more customers, but it doesn’t have to mean an increase in injuries. Fiacco and Arrington, whose gyms often see 100 customers per day, said the best way to minimize risk is to educate athletes on safety. “I made sure everybody who walked through the gym took our introductory class,” Arrington said. “We teach you how to fall, we teach you how to roll, we teach you how to learn to be safe.” Parkour athletes Julian Frazier and Shae Perkins, who often train together at APEX Movement, said out of all the sports they’ve tried, parkour has been one of the least dangerous. “I’ve been able to manage risk a lot better in parkour because I have a lot more autonomy in how I interact with the space,” Frazier said. “I’ve broken some fingers and ribs, nothing that was too big of a deal,” Perkins said. “Maybe it should have taken me out. I just kept training.” As the sport works its way into the mainstream, many of the newer athletes have different aspirations than their predecessors, Perkins said, which may also lessen the risk of injury. “It used to just be young men who wanted be reckless, and now it’s everyone,” he said. “There’s a lot of people who their life is not necessarily parkour,” Frazier agreed. “This is a power hobby or something that contributes to their work-life balance.” A tight community Perkins estimated that there are 10 times more women training in the sport than there were when he started 12 years ago. Additionally, he said the age range of the sport’s practitioners has expanded significantly — a trend that Arrington has also noticed.
“I’d say our youngest participant is about 5, and our oldest participant is 68,” he said. “You can have them in the same building doing the same thing, and that’s what makes it wildly unique and amazing.” The sport also appeals to athletes who are on the spectrum or have a learning disability, a group that makes up 10 percent of the customers at Path Movement. “The people that thrive in parkour are the people who love individual sports,” Arrington said. “You can have somebody with a strong learning disability who enjoys it and is in the same class as a top-tier athlete.” Ayden Perkins, a freshman at ThunderRidge High School — and Arrington’s stepson — has become one of the best athletes at Path Movement in the few years he has been training there. As somebody who has ADHD, he always has a lot of energy, he said, and parkour is one way he can channel that energy. “It makes you focus on this one thing, parkour, and nothing else,” he said. “It just calms you down.” Beyond being a fun hobby, the sport has positive benefits for him after he leaves the gym. “This gets all the energy out, so then I can focus on my homework,” he said. For everyone in the parkour world, one of the greatest rewards is the sport’s one-of-a-kind community and the strong bonds between coaches and students, Arrington said. “My coaches are very protective of the kids,” he said. “They’re the unsung heroes of our community. My business would be worth nothing without them.” Likewise, the athletes are supportive of one another in a way that isn’t common to other sports, Fiacco and Arrington said. “It’s only about 10 years old, so everyone remembers what it’s like to not be able to do the challenge you’re trying,” Fiacco said. “No one wants to see you fail. Everyone wants to help.” “We had a competition last weekend and there wasn’t a dry eye in the whole building, because everybody was rooting for everybody,” Arrington said. “Parkour, in its core, is all about the community.”

The City Council wishes to update and improve the standards for building construction and related systems in the City by adopting by reference these Codes, along with amendments reflecting the unique circumstances of the City, and to provide penalties for violations.

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!
