The Colorado Supreme Court ruled against the Douglas County School District’s Choice Scholarship Program, agreeing with a lower court that it violates the state constitution. “The Colorado Constitution features broad, unequivocal language forbidding the state from using public money to fund religious schools,” the decision read. “Yet aiding religious schools is exactly what the CSP does.” But district leaders said it’s not the end of the road. They intend to take the matter to the U.S. Supreme Court. “While we were disappointed, we are not surprised,” school board President Kevin Larsen said during a June 29 press conference at the district’s Castle Rock administration building. “This may very well be simply a case of delayed
gratification. Douglas County kids may have to wait just a little bit longer to get full access to choice.” Larsen said he believes a positive ruling at the federal level could pave the way for students nationwide to use public funds to attend private or public schools. “We have reason to believe the United States Supreme Court justices have an interest in this question,” board member Craig Richardson said. “We believe competition makes all schools better. We believe the truth remains to be seen.” The district points to the Blaine Amendments included in the constitutions of 37 states — including Colorado — as a federal-level issue. The amendments prohibit public funding of religious schools and organizations. Richardson said they reflect, “a very ugly period of American history” and are based in bigotry.
But courts so far have struck down previous efforts to show the Blaine Amendments’ historical and arguably prejudicial origins render them unconstitutional. The state’s highest court was not unanimous, making a 4-3 decision in favor of the plaintiffs, Taxpayers for Public Education. The plaintiffs are delighted by the court’s long-awaited ruling, pending since oral arguments were made before the panel in December. “Looking at the Colorado Supreme Court decision, this journey should be over,” said Anne Kleinkopf, director of Taxpayers for Public Education. “The court has stated as clearly as it possibly can that this program violates the state constitution. There should not be any further argument.” Kleinkopf said attorney Michael McCarthy, who has represented the plaintiffs pro bono, is “imminently qualified” to argue the case before the U.S. Supreme Court, but she believes the likelihood it will be heard there “is very, Voucher continues on Page 5
Recent deaths put river safety in focus High water levels, fast currents have made for dangerous conditions By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando@colorado communitymedia.com Heavy rain and snow melt have have led to high waters and fast currents at many of the bodies of water in the Denver metro area and throughout Colorado. In recent weeks, several people have lost their lives as a result of water accidents, including two tubers from the south metro area: Joseph Goodwin, a Heritage High graduate, in the South Platte River in Sheridan on June 20, and Steven Kelly, a Chaparral graduate, in the Arkansas River in Pueblo on June 21. On June 27, the body of Robert Jacobs, of Castle Rock, was found in the South Platte River in Waterton Canyon.
Joseph Goodwin fell off an inner tube into this fast-moving portion of the South Platte River in Sheridan on June 20. His body was found June 28. Rain and snow melt have made for swiftflowing conditions in the Platte and other bodies of water in Colorado. Photo by Chris Rotar Local and state agencies urge caution this summer when swimming, boating and otherwise enjoying the water. And they say to
stay away from shorelines with fast-moving water. Metro-area officials also have encouraged people to stay off the
South Platte River for the time being. “We are recommending everyone stay off the river until it returns to its ‘bankful’ (average annual maximum) flows of 650 (cubic feet per second) or less, and even then to always wear a life vest,” said Skot Latona, supervisor of South Platte Park in Littleton. In some areas, including Englewood, the South Platte has been flowing at more than 3,000 cfs in recent weeks. Jefferson and Douglas Counties had closed the South Platte from the mountains to Chatfield reservoir to recreational use. Downstream of Chatfield, the river traverses a greater number of jurisdictions, and has never been formally closed to use. Technically, it does remain open to the public, though that does not mean it has been endorsed as safe for all users. “People should continue to use extreme caution in making River continues on Page 6

NEWS IN A HURRY Fireworks show set for park
Independence Day fireworks will light up the night of July 4 at Metzler Ranch Community Park, 4175 Trail Boss Drive, Castle Rock. The fireworks show will be a little different from years past. While there will be more fireworks than before, this will be a low-altitude show. The fireworks will reach a maximum altitude of 150 feet. The low-flying fireworks will help minimize the fire risk to the park and surrounding areas. Additionally, the skate park and baseball fields 2 and 3 will be closed to ensure the fireworks have a safe perimeter. The best view of the show will still be around the park. Other locations around town, like Philip S. Miller Park, may not offer visibility. A good rule of thumb in advance is to go out the night of July 2 or 3, then watch for the park lights. If the top of the field lights are visible, the fireworks show should also be visible from that location. Parking inside the park and along Trail Boss Drive will not be permitted. Parking will be available at nearby parking lots, including retail and school lots. The park will be closed to the public at 4 p.m. on July 4 so the fireworks show can be set up. The skate park will be closed all day July 4 and the morning of July 5. Additionally, Black Feather Trail will be closed between Front Street and Woodlands Boulevard from about 9 to 10:45 p.m. on July 4. The fireworks show is set to begin between 9:30 and 9:45 p.m. There will be two fireworks-weather test shots prior to the start of the show. Once the tests are complete and the field lights are turned off, the fireworks show will be set to begin.

COPS Camp slated for July 28-31
Why Castle Rock? We researched the areas and looked at Aurora, Parker and Castle Rock. Castle Rock seemed best suited for a new martial arts school. We had no idea it was one of the most thriving areas in all of the United States. It was really divine how it all worked out.
My passions Being outdoors. Being with family and friends. Going to church. Martial arts is probably on of the biggest things, honestly. I just live martial arts. I know that sounds very dull but I eat, sleep and breathe martial arts. I like to watch a lot of MMA on TV. I watch the UFC.
Karate master at Castle Rock Martial arts
Search/rescue team seeks volunteers
Did you know?
My background
I’ve been doing martial arts for almost 20 years. I have sixth-degree black belt in Youn Wha Ryu, a mixture of six different martial arts styles and I am a purple belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu. My wife and I had a big dream to open our own martial arts school 11 years ago. We’re from West Plains, Missouri, and left to pursue a dream. So, we moved 1,000 miles away from family and had no money, no job, no students and left. I was 23 years old.
Castle Rock police are gearing up for their annual COPS Camp July 28-31. Youths from 13-17 are invited to attend the camp, which will help them build teamwork and leadership skills they can use in any future career. COPS stands for challenge, overcome, persevere and succeed. Activities will include climbing, harness construction, rappelling and rock climbing. Participants will also spend a day learning land navigation at an area course. “As officers, we’ve all had mentors invest in us, and we want to pay that forward by helping our community’s kids set their sights on a bright future, whether in law enforcement or another career,” said Sgt. Sam Varela, who is leading the camp. “We wanted to find another way to interact with kids in a positive way.” Registration is now open online at CRgov.com/CopsCamp. The cost is $50. There are just 20 spots available.
I’m pretty serious in class, but I hope my sense of humor comes across. I can also draw a little bit. I draw cartoons for my son. I can sketch out some stuff. I loved to draw when I was young. I loved to draw cartoons and create characters and I do that with my son now. By Mike DiFerdinando. If you have suggestions for My Name Is…contact him at mdiferdinando@coloradocommunity.com
The nonprofit, all-volunteer Douglas County Search and Rescue team will host an informational meeting at 7 p.m. July 21 at the Highlands Ranch Sheriff’s Substation, 9250 Zotos Drive, in Highlands Ranch. Physical requirements, necessary personal gear, training, a history of the team and an overview of previous missions will all be part of the discussion that evening. In 2014, the team — which consists of 40 members and operates under the authority of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office — responded to 136 calls for help. Calls range from searches for missing persons in residential areas to rescues of those injured in the wilderness.

Fireworks stand still sparkles after 20 years Vendor says sales build as Fourth approaches
Many other agencies already had capability
By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando@colorado communitymedia.com “We’ve had some celebrity customers. Dog the Bounty Hunter came in for years,” said Mike Davis, who runs the seasonal fireworks tent off Perry Street behind the Wells Fargo in Castle Rock. “The former Broncos player Ed McCaffrey has come in over the years too.” It’s the morning of June 26, the second day of Davis’ 10-day run-up to the Fourth of July, and he’s still setting up his inventory for the year. Workers stack freshly open packs of fireworks, lining up boxes of sparklers and other patriotic toys and trinkets in rows along long tables. Davis is a retired electrician from the Larkspur area. His family has been selling fireworks seasonally in the Castle Rock area for more than 20 years. “The first part of the 10 days is always kind of slow, but then starting on July 1 it gets really busy,” Davis said. “If you really want to see what it’s like, come in on the Fourth around noon; this place is so full of people it’s shoulder to shoulder.” Most people don’t know what kind of fireworks they want, so kits are the most popular. Ranging from $10 to $500, customers can walk away with a grab bag of goodies. They won’t explode, however. In Colorado, fireworks for personal use must not leave the ground or explode. This means things like bottle rockets are off limits. Most of the flashy fireworks found here are called fountains, which
Staff report
The Douglas County Emergency Telephone Service Authority has announced the ability to send a text message to 911 as an integrated service to its network and equipment. Texting to 911 provides accessibility to the hearing- and speech-impaired population and provides an alternative to reach help in a dangerous situation when a voice call is not possible or where a voice call fails due to a high volume of phone activity but texting is successful. Other Colorado agencies such as Arapahoe, Jefferson, Broomfield, Larimer, Eagle, Pitkin, Mesa and Garfield counties are already providing this service. Here’s how to text to 911 in an emergency: • Enter the numbers “911” in the “To” field. • The first text message to 911 should be brief and contain the location of the emergency and type of help needed. • Push the “Send” button. • Be prepared to answer questions and follow instructions from the 911 call taker. • Text in simple words — do not use abbreviations. • Keep the text message brief and concise. Here is when to send a text to 911: • If you are hearing-impaired • When a voice call could increase a threat • If you are injured and cannot speak • If you are in a remote location and can only send a text message Currently, the four major carriers, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon Wireless, have agreed to offer the text to 911 service. However, this does not mean that the service is available in all areas. Should you be out of the area for that carrier, you will receive a message stating that the text service is not available and to call 911. Photos, videos and other attachments cannot currently be sent to 911 via text, although those capabilities will be available in the future.

What’s the most popular? “The snap-its, kids love that, and sparklers, we always sell out of those,” said Nick Kaber, a teacher at Rock Ridge Elementary who is a family friend and has helped sell fireworks with Davis for the last nine years. Davis, who moved to the area 34 years ago from Washington state,
used to sell Christmas trees as well, but that’s a pastime he’s said goodbye to at this point, saying the trees were “too hard to keep fresh.” “We used to put stands up right on Main Street. We started down across from the old schoolhouse, where that little shopping center used to be was houses. We traded a guy one of these packages for rent,” Davis said. “It’s just something we did over the years to supplement our income and it’s helped.”

State audit finds school district owes $4.2 million Claim is tied to schedule changes, alleged lost instructional time
WHAT HAPPENS IF THE DISTRICT HAS TO PAY
By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com
The Colorado Department of Education says the Douglas County School District owes it $4.2 million for 1,100 students an audit shows attended school part-time, but received full-time state funding. The CDE’s Leanne Emm said such audit findings aren’t unusual, but “not to this magnitude. This is unusually large.” The findings do not have any negative effect on the students, including the credits and diplomas they earned. They are linked n only to school-funding levels. The district disagrees with the state’s decision, calling the audit findings an unreasonable penalty. The students whose schedules are in question averaged 96.7 percent of the required seat time, according to the district. DCSD has threatened a lawsuit against the department, though school board president Kevin Larsen is hopeful the issue can be resolved without going that far. “That is still on the table, but nothing has been filed at this time,” Larsen said. “We will reserve all our remedies available -legally and hope through some discussion to get this resolved. “We have addressed the problem. We want any penalties to be proportional and in line. They allow discretion in the law. The reason is to prevent stupid outcomes. From our point of view, this is a stupid outcome. yIt’s disproportionate.” But the state said the law doesn’t allow ,for proportional funding — only part-time or full-time. The state’s findings are tied to individual ustudent schedules during the 2012-13 and e2013-14 academic years. During that time, most Douglas County high schools were on
Douglas County School Board president Kevin Larsen said paying the state’s request for $4.2 million would not result in cuts to teaching stuff or impact students. The Colorado Department of Education has offered a 15-year payment plan, or about $280,000 annually. “That would not rise to the level of cuts that are going to have an impact,” Larsen said.
a block schedule — a hotly debated effort to save money and retain classes from which many schools have since withdrawn. Each student is required to have 360 hours of teacher instruction per semester. The CDE said some DCSD students missed that mark by a few hours, others by more than 200. “If they had gone through their calculations correctly, they would have identified that problem,” said Emm, the CDE’s assistant commissioner of school finance. “The district has very adept staff that is very cognizant of the rules and regulations around how to count students and the requirements of scheduled contact time. They provided tools for the principals to utilize to help set their schedules. Some of the schools may have incorrectly utilized those tools.” Emm also noted that CDE Commissioner Robert Hammond reduced the district’s liability by $1.1 million, from an original tally of $5.3 million.
Advisement periods scrutinized
Some who opposed the block schedule said they warned the district about the schedule’s pitfalls before it was put into place. But school leaders said the issue
revolves around attendance accounting during the advisement period — not the schedule itself. Advisement is a period during which students can seek out teachers for one-on-one instruction, though not all students use it for that purpose. The errors CDE noted were at all Douglas County high schools, but most were found at ThunderRidge, Legend and Highlands Ranch. “It’s not that attendance didn’t happen,” Larsen said. “The heart of the matter here is the state accepting the documentation of the advisement in order to qualify it as instructional time.” A June 23, 2015 letter from Hammond to Douglas County superintendent Elizabeth Fagen alleges the district should have been aware of the issue. “The evidence that we have received indicate the district was aware of the potential shortage in the scheduled time; however did not correct the problem until the 2014-15 school year,” wrote Hammond, who is retiring July 1. Larsen, however, said the district made changes as soon as it discovered there was an issue. “Once we were made aware in the middle part of the 2013-14 year, it was tightened up and all these things were documented,” he said.
History of schedule change In 2012, the district announced it faced an $18.1 million shortfall, and could save $3.6 million by shifting its high school schedules. Most high schools adopted a block schedule — also called 6-of-8 — with all eight sessions offered one day a week, and two four-session days the remainder of the week. Then-Legend High School Principal Corey Wise, who’s now the district’s assistant superintendent of secondary education, said the schedule served students well. “We built and planned for these kids to be full-time; they were full-time,” he
, e
said. “The senior advisement and details of how we needed to run that was the mistake made. But moving to 6-of-8 allowed us to have more opportunities for kids, and provided a more efficient model. Our test scores were up. GPAs were up for the seniors. College admissions were up. “Where we were deficient in minutes was a technicality, but I think we did better by kids.” Dan McMinimee, the district’s assistant superintendent of secondary education at the time, said in January 2012 that as the budget became clearer, school leaders realized the budget cuts they’d made at the high school level hadn’t been necessary. “I didn’t have a crystal ball last fall,” he said then. “Now we know.” McMinimee is now superintendent of Jeffco Schools. “I can’t speak to whether the cuts were needed or not,” Wise said. “But you can run 6-of-8 more efficiently, in terms of cost savings. We mitigated the impact on kids, and I think we did a better job for seniors.” Larsen agrees. “It’s really a dispute of form over substance,” he said. “Is the idea of having minutes to have kids prepared to succeed? Or is it to satisfy CDE counting the ticks on a clock? “We’re unafraid to think out of the box about what’s good for kids.” Laura Mutton, president of the Strong Schools Coalition, said the current issue is the result of questionable decision-making. “There were two mistakes that were made here: The first that the district took $4.1 million in cuts in 2012, which reduced instructional time for the high schools when they had a $17 million surplus,” she said. “The second is after hearing concerns from Strong Schools about the loss of instructional time that was going to occur with this new schedule, it appears they never confirmed (that) with the CDE. “I would say it’s an example of questionable district leadership, and a lack of accountability by the board of education.”
John Adams name debate resolved
Voucher
California school drops challenge that targeted planned charter
Continued from Page 1
By Jane Reuter
jreuter@colorado communitymedia.com The John Adams High School name and its Patriots mascot will move forward with the rest of the recently approved Douglas County school. A similarly named California school that had demanded the planned high school charter drop its name has abandoned its request. “We have decided not to allocate additional resources to this matter,” wrote Shane Schulthies, headmaster at California’s John Adams Academy, in a June 19 notice. The Roseville, California K-12 charter school in May threatened legal action against the proposed John Adams High School for use of the name “John Adams.” John Adams High School board
president Matthew Krol said the stillforming school didn’t have money to fight a legal battle and would give up the name if necessary. “I think we were hoping it would come to an amicable decision between both schools, that we could both move forward and realize education comes first,” he said. “So yes, this was good news. I think they realized this was the best course of action.” At least three other John Adams High Schools exist in the United States, and several elementary and middle schools bear the founding father’s name. But an attorney for John Adams Academy said the Douglas County school was the only one creating confusion among parents, some of whom called the California school for information about John Adams High School. John Adams Academy opened in 2010, and secured two federal trademark registrations for “John Adams Academy.” The attorney representing the school said having an identical name isn’t a standard for trademark
infringement. Names that are similar enough to cause confusion meet the criteria. “We were within our right to try to request school officials in Colorado change the name of their yet-to-beopened school,” Schulthies wrote, adding that the California school intends to “protect our brand while reducing the potential for further confusion.” In the end, school leaders there decided “to focus on what is in the best interest of our scholars — offering a classical leadership education model that is second to none.” Krol, who said he was pleased by response from parents who wanted to help the school with the name issue, said the board is focused on other items. Those include curriculum, finding a site and hiring a principal. “These are all much, much bigger issues,” he said. “We’ve got two parent meetings coming up. We’re pretty excited about introducing a whole new group of parents to John Adams.” The school hopes to have a site secured within six weeks.

very slim.” “This is a tremendous victory for the public school kids of Colorado,” said Cindy Barnard, president of Taxpayers for Public Education. “I have been confident in what was right in our work for four years now. This truly means that money that was set aside for public education can only be used for the intent that it was meant to be, and that’s the public education of our kids.” District leaders said during the press conference they will try to find a way to implement the program within the legal restrictions. DCSD so far has spent $1.2 million on the case, all of it from private donations, Richardson said. The ruling reversed a February 2013 decision by a state appeals court, but reinforced a 2011 ruling by a Denver judge. The parent-led Taxpayers for Public Education initially filed the suit in 2011 against DCSD and the Colorado Department of Education after the district implemented its pilot program designed for 500 students. It allowed the students’ parents to use state-provided per-pupil revenue toward tuition at private, mostly religiously affiliated schools. The program was halted by a Denver judge in 2011.

Ponderosa wrestling champ was ‘tough, humble’ Steven Kelly died at 23 in a tubing accident By Jim Benton and Chris Rotar
Staff writers
Ponderosa High School wrestling coach Corey McNellis was with his team at a camp in Missouri when he got the news. It was like a punch to the gut. Steven Kelly was a key member of the team’s record-setting run of eight consecutive state titles. The 2010 graduate won a pair of individual state championships in helping build the Mustangs’ legacy on the mats. Now, McNellis was joining Kelly’s friends and family and the Colorado wrestling community in reflecting on the life and mourning the death of a young man who was just starting to build his own legacy. “He was tough on the mat, but he was humble, gentle and kind to others off the
mat,” said McNellis, who coached Kelly in the 2009 and 2010 seasons. “Our program is going to remember him for a long time. I feel sick about it.” Kelly died in a tubing accident June 21 on the Arkansas River at the age of 23. He was a junior at Colorado State-Pueblo, having transferred last year from the Colorado School of Mines. The 157-pounder from Parker tied for fourth on the team with 32 takedowns last season. But he’s remembered for more than his wrestling success. Kelly graduated from Ponderosa with a 3.9 grade point average. At CSU-Pueblo, he was an engineering major. “He was a wonderful kid,” said Ponderosa Athletic Director Tim Ottmann, Kelly’s wrestling coach before retiring after the 2008 season. “He had it all. He was smart, talented and worked hard. He set the pace for everybody.” On June 21, Kelly was tubing alone on the fast-flowing Arkansas River in Lake Pueblo State Park when he ran into trouble below the dam near a picnic area, according to a
Body of missing Castle Rock man found in South Platte Robert Jacobs, 65, went missing June 8 Staff Report The body of a man found in the South Platte River June 27 has been identified as Castle Rock resident Robert Jacobs. On June 8 the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office received a report of a missing person. Robert Jacobs, 65, was last seen around 4 p.m. on June 8 in Castle Rock riding his black Harley Davidson Road King motorcycle. He was driving to Breckenridge but never arrived. The sheriff’s office conducted sev-
eral extensive searches traveling the different routes from Castle Rock to Breckenridge with personnel and a helicopter but was unable to locate Jacobs. Just before 5 p.m. on June 27, the sheriff’s departments in Douglas and Jefferson counties received a report from a passerby of a body in the water of the South Platte River in the area of Waterton Canyon. The sheriff’s departments along with the Douglas County Coroner’s Office, and the West and South Metro Fire Departments responded, and rescue workers were able to Jacobs continues on Page 7
Colorado Parks and Wildlife news release. “It appears Kelly was trying to avoid drifting down the river by tying a rope to the footbridge located there,” the release states. “The rope was then tied to his inner tube and his ankle. The tube broke away in the swift water and Kelly was unable to detach himself from the rope before he drowned.” CSU-Pueblo Athletic Director Joe Folda called Kelly’s death “devastating.” “Steven was an outstanding studentathlete with a bright future,” Folda said in a news release. The son of Dan and Lisa Kelly and brother of four older siblings enjoyed playing video games, working out and singing karaoke with his family, according to his bio on the CSU-Pueblo athletics department website. At Ponderosa, Kelly wrestled alongside his brother Daniel, a 2009 graduate who also won a pair of state championships. “I really feel for his family,” said McNellis. “They were great supporters. Obviously, they didn’t deserve this.”

• Never go on the water alone. • Know your abilities and limitations and plan accordingly. • Scout the river ahead of time for hazards like debris and dangerous conditions. • If you fall in the river, point your feet downstream and look for a point to get out. Never put your feet down and try to stand. • Get out of the water as soon as possible. •If you see someone fall in, throw him or her a floatation device or rope; if the effort is not successful, then go for help. •Dress for the water temperature, not the air temperature. •Take swim lessons. • Keep your children within reach.

Under current definitions, this specifically excludes things like inner tubes and pool toys. “That does not mean those types of floatation aids, or the conditions they are used in, are any safer than a canoe or kayak, and in fact are much likely more dangerous,” Latona said. “We believe children should always wear a life vest when in lakes or rivers with areas greater than knee deep and that adults

$20 million data center opens in Douglas County OneNeck cites incentives offered by the local government
WHAT IS A DATA CENTER? A data center is a facility used to house computer systems and associated components, such as telecommunications and storage systems. It generally includes redundant or backup power supplies, redundant data communications connections, environmental controls and various security devices.
By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando@colorado communitymedia.com OneNeck IT Solutions has completed the first phase of a new $20 million, 35,000-square-foot Tier 3 data center in northern Douglas County. On hand for a June 23 tour of the facility were all three Douglas County commissioners and state Sen. Chris Holbert, R-Parker, who heralded the project as an example of the county’s business-friendly climate. “If it weren’t for the tax incentives, the construction incentives, etc., we probably wouldn’t be here,” said Terry Swanson, a vice president for OneNeck. “We’re here because Douglas County is a great place to do business.” Swanson said the Denver metro area was a good choice to open its first Colorado location because geographically it links their data centers in the Midwest and Phoenix. The company is based in Chicago. According to OneNeck, Denver ranks eighth in the U.S. for the most attractive places to build a data center facility. The company says it ranks above places like New York, Dallas and Chicago. “It was mentioned that Douglas County did tax incentives, and I just want to remind everyone that we did not collect the business personal property tax,” County Commissioner Jill Repella said. “We did not give any taxes away. It’s very interesting to hear people talk about tax incentives. It’s not a
There are four tiers of data centers. The Douglas County facility is a Tier 3 center. This means: • There are multiple independent distribution paths serving the IT equipment. • All IT equipment must be dual-powered and fully compatible with the topology of a site’s architecture. Douglas County Commissioners Jill Repella, David Weaver and Rodger Partridge tour the new OneNeck Data Center in Englewood June 23. Photos by Mike DiFerdinando subsidy. This stimulus and what this business brings to our community by far exceeds what the business personal property tax value does.” Repella said there was a firm commitment by the county commissioners about six or seven years ago, when the county was rolling into the recession, to make jobs a priority. “Pretty much every building permit that comes through Douglas County we try to expedite to meet the schedule for that
business, because when a business door is open, revenue is flowing through the business to employees and being spent in our community,” Repella said. The data center, near Peoria Street and County Line Road at 8675 Concord Center Drive, is built like a fortress. Retina scanners are used by employees to access each room. The center has six separate data rooms, with 15-inch-thick walls between them, and the roof is made of concrete. Special HVAC equipment and
Staff report Castle Pines resident Rob Hanna is South Suburban Parks and Recreation District’s new executive director, taking the helm on July 31 as the district nears its 60th anniversary. “We are excited that Rob will be leading South Suburban to the next level of greatness,” said John Ostermiller, board president. “Rob is a solid performer and has proven himself to be a dedicated leader who works exceptionally well with partners and agencies. He’s a collaborator and is responsible for creating an open environment that has contributed to high levels of community engagement.” The SSPR board of directors voted unanimously to hire Hanna on June 17, luring him away from his current position as director of parks, recreation and golf for the town of Castle
Rock. Hanna says he enjoyed his tenure in Castle Rock and is most proud of his involvement in the design and construction of Philip S. Miller Park, having negotiated the town’s first public/private partnership to bring the project to fruition. It’s a 300-acre park with zip lines, synthetic fields, an outdoor amphitheater, splash pads, adventure playground and the Epic Adventure Tower. The Hanna Miller Activity Center includes indoor synthetic turf, trampolines, an indoor playground and a leisure pool. Hanna also developed the first intergovernmental agreement with the Douglas County School District, which provides for the joint development and use of facilities. It reduced construction expenses and increased the availability of recreational facilities for the community.
Hanna has 17 years of park and recreation experience, and has been in his current position since 1998. He is a certified parks and recreation professional and a registered landscape architect. He holds a bachelor’s degree in landscape architecture from Texas Tech University. Hanna replaces Dave Lorenz, who retired March 31 after a 48-year career with the district. In February, the board hired national executive search firm Peckham & McKenney to conduct a national search to replace Lorenz. More than 60 candidates applied from around the country, and the top three were interviewed by advisory committees on June 11. South Suburban Parks and Recreation provides and manages parks, trails, open space and recreation facilities and programs for 146,000 residents living in Littleton, Lone Tree, Sheridan, Columbine Valley, Bow Mar, western Centennial and portions of unincorporated Jefferson, Douglas and Arapahoe counties.

Gay-marriage ruling spurs differing views in Colorado State began issuing licenses for same-sex couples last year Staff report The U.S. Supreme Court’s June 26 ruling to allow same-sex marriage across the nation didn’t change policy in Colorado, which has seen gay nuptials since last October. But the news was welcomed by many in the Denver metro area as a sign of progress. “Today is a historic day for marriage equality and equal rights,” said U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter, D-Golden. “Every person now has the freedom and opportunity to marry the person they love. The Supreme Court’s decision is a win for love and respect, and for the equalPerlmutter ity of all families across the country.” County clerks in Colorado have been issuing same-sex marriage licenses since October 2014, upon the orders of the state’s attorney general after the nation’s top court declined to hear appeals on the matter. On June 26, county clerks in the metro area, including in Arapahoe, Douglas and Jefferson counties, said it was business as usual. A spokeswoman for Douglas County said the clerk has issued 76 marriage licenses to same-sex couples since October. The Supreme Court’s ruling came by the closest of margins, 5-4, and the justices were divided along what many consider conservative-liberal lines. A spokesman for the Colorado Repub-
lican Party deferred to the Republican National Committee’s statement when asked for comment. The RNC said marriage issues should be left to state officials. “The Supreme Court failed to recognize the states’ constitutional role in setting marriage policy, instead finding a federal role where there is none,” according to the statement. “In doing so, they have taken power away from the states and from the people to settle the relevant issues for themselves. “As a party, we believe in the importance of traditional marriage between a man and a woman and remain committed to finding common ground to champion the family’s role in society.” U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, a Republican whose 6th District includes Littleton, Highlands Ranch and Centennial, didn’t denounce the decision, but said there Coffman are more important issues for the community and nation to tackle. “It is time we move forward and focus on the big debates of our day — how to keep our country safe and get Americans back to work,” he said. The president and CEO of Focus on the Family, a Colorado Springs-based Christian ministry, called the court’s decision “disappointing.” “Although this result was predicted by many observers, the action of the court is nonetheless startling in its rejection of a societal understanding of marriage that goes back to the dawn of civilization,” Jim Daly
Independence Day
Staff report When Eugene Sanders heard last week about the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling that same-sex couples had the right to marry nationwide, he was working at his part-time job, which tempered his response. “I couldn’t really react the way I wanted to in my mind,” said Sanders, a recent graduate of Arapahoe Community College. “I was overwhelmed with Sanders emotions because it was something that I wanted and others that I knew wanted for a long time. That’s why the Supreme Court’s there: the ultimate people to make this decision.” Sanders views the struggle to legal-

Not all religious leaders shared that thought. “I was very pleased, and I hope the United Methodist Church will follow up that decision with its own decision this coming year, in 2016, at the general conference, making same-sex marriage legal in the church,” said Rusty Butler, lead pastor at Arvada United Methodist Church. Likewise, Democratic state lawmakers enthusiastically supported the court’s ruling. “I am so excited for all my constituents,

Sanders, who graduated from ACC in December and now attends the University of Colorado Denver, said he often turned to theater to spark the conversation. The Equality Club worked to bring performances to the college, and he credited ACC with generally being open-minded and supportive. ACC recognized Sanders as student of the year and as one of the college’s “rising stars” for the 2013-14 school year. “People see gay people in a certain light — we’re all different people,” Sanders said. “I was put in motion to educate as many people as possible.”

Andy Kerr, D-Lakewood, said he was “ecstatic” but “there is still a lot of work to be done.” “That can be seen in the 5-4 decision, and the fact that some on the other side of this have vowed to keep fighting,” he said. “Tomorrow, we have to get back to work to make sure every single person and every county clerk and judge in every corner of the country upholds the law fairly.”

Tour de Ladies: Pedalling for a cause Cycling event raises money for county shelter By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com
b A cycling event in Douglas County is e confronting an issue silenced by closed T doors. There is strength in numbers at the Tour de Ladies, an annual women-only charity ride with 30-mile and 62 ½-mile routes. It d has raised nearly $17,000 in the last three years for the Crisis Center, a Douglas County-based shelter that aims to end domestic d violence through advocacy, education and prevention. For the first time, the Tour de Ladies will begin and end downtown at the Parker g Arts, Culture and Events Center, slightly altering the routes for the 2015 version of the event on July 11. The course follows the scenic paths of Parker and, for the longer y ride, Castle Rock. The fastest cyclists cruise along at 15 mph, but for most entrants, the Tour de Ladies is a leisurely ride that lets them bond with friends old and new, while taking in spectacular views. n “This is a good one for first-timers, for those who haven’t done an organized event like this before,” said ride director Becki g Rupp. “It’s definitely not a race.” It’s not a timed event, and there is little competition, which promotes a more relaxed atmosphere. Basing the ride out of the PACE Center has its perks as well, as , organizers point out in their promotional materials. “Our riders will enjoy indoor seating for lunch, the outside patio for our expo and, most important for us ladies, indoor restrooms,” an announcement states. The expo will feature cycling-related vendors, a cash bar and a massage therapist at the finish line, Rupp said. Registration numbers are up this year, and the ride is being capped at 450 participants. Officials are hoping to raise more than the $10,000 collected during last year’s Tour de Ladies. The money is a crucial

gram.” The Crisis Center will again have a team of staff members riding alongside supporters from the community. Raising awareness of the existence of domestic violence in Douglas County, and where to seek help, is a major part of events organized by community groups looking to lend a helping hand. “Fundraising isn’t successful if all it does is raise funds,” Walker said. “It also has to help the community understand why we’re here and what we’re doing and why we

‘Almost’ good enough isn’t good enough “Almost” is only a six-letter word, but so very important. And its importance and relevance could be situational, and maybe it even comes down to our own perspective and how we choose to view all of the “almost” events in our lives. Recently while driving from Denver to Des Moines, Iowa, we “almost” made it into Des Moines in time to avoid the tornado warnings and storm. I mean we were about 25 miles from town when the radio alert interrupted our music and alerted us to a tornado warning and to seek shelter immediately. Luckily it was just a very severe thunderstorm with high wind and rain, and we arrived safely; however, it was a bit unnerving as debris filled the highways, and trucks were sideways along the road. “Almost” there was just not good enough. How many of us have experienced an event or situation where we avoided a serious accident or collision where we could have been hurt or seriously injured? You know, the kind of near-miss where we tell the story to a friend and we say something like, “You should have seen it, there we were just walking along when all of a sudden a rock slide came and ‘almost’ wiped us out!” The good news in these situations is that we were “almost” in trouble but we survived to tell our story. The “almost” events can be very exhilarat-
ing, for sure, as they get our heart rate going and stimulate our thinking and our actions. But there is another kind of “almost” that serves as more of a de-motivator in our lives that could be even more dangerous than those near-misses and close calls. If you have ever Michael Norton found yourself saying, WINNING “I almost went to the gym today” or “I almost WORDS started reading that book,” you know what I might be referring to. It is in these “almost” moments, events and situations where we can caught in the trap of “almost” achieving our goals and dreams. When this happens we have to look at the barriers, obstacles and excuses that cause us to “almost” achieve our goals instead of pushing past and realizing success. “I almost went to the gym, but my friend came by with a pizza and I just couldn’t say no.” Now that is an excuse that could have been avoided with a commitment to a goal of better physical fitness and getting in shape. “I almost went to the gym, however as I stepped out of my car
I twisted my ankle and needed to go for an X-ray.” This is a real obstacle that needs to be addressed before moving on with the pursuit of our goals. The point is this, we can “almost” do anything. And if we just shifted our mindset and took the emphasis off of the word “almost” and placed our focus on the word “do,” we would increase our effectiveness and productivity in every area of our lives. I know, I know, living with an “almost” attitude is so much easier, it really is. It gets us out of any promises, commitments and expectations we have made to ourselves and others. If we could just get past the “almost” there mental barrier and get our heads and hearts around the “being” there or “getting” there success stories of our lives, there is no doubt in my mind that we can all meet with a higher level of personal and professional achievement. How about you, are you “almost” there or are you there? Either way I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we move from “almost” there to “being” there, it really will be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.
Connected by phone and still all alone I had a nightmare. I was in an elevator with five other people. They were all strangers to me, and they were all strangers to each other. All of them were on the phone. Tapping away or talking, heads down, oblivious to each other. It was a cage of monkeys seeing and monkeys doing. Courtesy was out the window. Any speck of politeness was out the window. Respect was out the window. Those are arcane words. I gotta make a phone call now, right here, in front of anyone, anywhere, at any time, no matter what it looks like, and it can’t really bother anyone because everyone around me is doing it. Except me. And it wasn’t a nightmare. It just happened, in a New York City hotel. They all got on without looking up, and bumped into each other without apologizing. One of them got off without looking up and ran right into the doorframe. At about floor 19, I started to speak, in my distinctive voice, the lyrics of “A Day in the Life.” “Four-thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire.” It went unnoticed. “And though the holes were rather small, they had to count them all.” Unnoticed. “Now they know how many holes it takes to

fill the Albert Hall.” Nothing. “I’d love to turn you on.” “What did you say?” a woman with an accent said. More than nine in 10 of us have cell phones. There is zero etiquette when it comes to using them. “Phone anyplace and get in someone’s face,” is one marketing slogan. I am here to tell you that you look
like fools. Looking like fools isn’t what it used to be. I remember when you had to balance a Walnetto on your nose to look like a fool. I know that your call or your text is mighty crucial. A must to make. Lindbergh just landed at Le Bourget, and you need to tell all of your friends. Your pants are on fire. Meet me at 8 and don’t be late. “Did you hear what he said about my elbow implants?” It must be a way to look connected. To be with it. Take a selfie. Take another selfie. Take another selfie.

Healthy habits mitigate problems tied to aging Aging is a normal, gradual process of physical change over time. However, the inevitable consequences of aging are far more pronounced in some individuals than others. Although some health problems are an unavoidable aspect of aging, many more are preventable and can be influenced by three major behaviors: eating a healthy diet, staying physically active and avoiding tobacco. In fact, there is evidence that these three behaviors alone are more influential than genetic factors in fighting age-associated decline. So what exactly happens in the aging body? Aging is generally associated with a slower metabolism, which leads to accumulation of extra body fat, particularly around the middle. Digestion slows, and the body becomes less efficient at managing the rise in blood sugar after eating. One of the first signs of aging is loss of muscular strength, giving way to stiff joints. Muscle strength remains similar up to age 45 and decreases by 50 percent between
selfie. Take another selfie. Text, text, text, text, text, text, text, text. You don’t care what you look like, but I sure wish you would watch where you are going. There is no eye contact to begin with in New York. It’s a misdemeanor. At a minimum it is referred to as “creepy.” It’s not as bad here, but just about. When was the last time you saw a teenager without a phone in their hand? I know that I am an anomaly. When I leave the house, I want to be out of reach. Leave a message on my landline and I will get back to you. But if I am out and about, leave me alone. Rudeness used to mean something. Now it means nothing. Am I am old and cranky? Thankfully, yes. An elevator is a great place to show exactly what has become of human behavior. When the doors opened, a punk with a backward cap left in front of a 40-something woman. Both of them were on the phone, and she didn’t seem to mind. People are people. I just don’t happen to want to be one of them sometimes. I have hammered this nail before, I know that. And I am sure I will again. Short of living in a lighthouse — which I have considered — it’s the only way to avoid foundering in the babble and drivel.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Court’s ruling makes us all more free
the ages of 50 and Dr. Richard Collins 80. Gradual loss of and Susan Buckley lean body mass and LIVING AND reduced energy expenditure lower caloric AGING WELL needs. Energy requirements for the elderly diminish by about 100 kcal/day per decade in general. However, nutrient needs do not drop, and in some cases they increase. As a result, packing more nutrition into fewer calories becomes a challenge for older adults. For this reason, focusing on quality food choices becomes paramount. National surveys show a decline in energy intake with age, accompanied by a similar decline in protein and key vitamin and mineral intake after the age of 50. While adults are not easily categorized, certain nutrients require greater attention as people age. Which vita-
I awoke Friday morning to a beautiful rainbow, not outside my window, but on my Facebook feed. Just as interracial marriage is now simply considered “marriage,” so too is LGBT marriage in all 50 states. This news came nearly 24 hours after the Supreme Court also deemed government tax subsidies within the Affordable Care Act to be constitutional. I felt that these court rulings would prove to the opposition that their beloved country has made these decisions purely based on our Constitution to most prominently include equality. We have just witnessed not one but two historical Supreme Court decisions, both related to human rights. While both decisions result in positivity, I cannot help but wonder why these were cases at all. It does not shine a modern or inclusionary light on our country when such questions as “Should everyone have affordable healthcare?” or “Should everyone be free of discrimination when it comes to legal rights?” must be asked.

mins and minerals are critical depends on the health status of the individual but most often, vitamin D and some of the B vitamins are marginalized in older adults, followed by calcium and iron. Studies confirm this. Inadequate dietary intakes of energy, folate, vitamin D, vitamin B6, calcium, iron and zinc have been reported in community-dwelling adults over 60 years old. There is a reduction in energy requirements with increasing age, whereas there are increased requirements for a number of nutrients, such as protein, riboflavin, B-6, B-12, calcium and vitamin D. Vitamin deficiencies, particularly vitamin B12, B6 and folate, are associated with cognitive impairment. Protein needs go up as well. Protein helps older individuals maintain muscle. Muscle is the absolute centerpiece for being healthy, vital and independent as we grow older. Muscle keeps us strong and mobile. It’s where most of our calories are burned, so having more muscle means burning more calories, which makes it easier to stay trim. Muscle also helps us appear younger. What makes us look older more than anything else is losing muscle and gaining body fat as we age. As we age, we naturally lose muscle mass and strength due to a trifecta of reduced muscle response to protein intake, changing hormones and for some, less physical activity. Called sarcopenia, this gradual loss of muscle mass has been credited with a litany of health problems, including insulin resistance, low bone mineral content and density, falls and fractures — even death. Plus, the greater your muscle mass, the more apt you’ll be to stick with the health-boosting physical activities you enjoyed in your younger years. Most people (especially older people) start the day with a carbohydrate-rich, protein-poor breakfast, such as cereal or a bagel. Higher protein breakfasts help older adults remain stronger and healthier. Getting approximately 25-30 grams of protein at each meal is the goal. Breakfast: Cottage cheese, one cup = 30 grams Greek yogurt, six ounces plain = 18 grams Eggbeaters, half cup = 12 grams Whey protein shake = 20-30 grams Two tablespoons whey mixed into oatmeal = 20 grams Most individuals over age 50 have a reduced ability to absorb naturally occurring vitamin B12 as well, and must therefore consume it in fortified foods or supplements. The major causes of vitamin B12 deficiency are atrophic gastritis and pernicious anemia. Atrophic gastritis (inflammation of the stomach lining) affects nutrient bioavailability and is a problem that increases with age; research indicates that 40 percent to 50 percent of individuals over age 80 have the condition. Consequently, a significant portion of older people are at risk of impaired absorption of vitamin B12, folic acid and other vitamins and minerals. Constipation is another common problem. Since constipation may affect up to 20 percent of people over age 65, foods rich in dietary fiber become increasingly important for older adults. Additional causes of constipation among this age group may include side effects of medications and lack of appropriate hydration. Low fiber intake may also contribute to other gastrointestinal diseases common among older adults, including diverticulosis. Adequate fluid intake not only eases constipation; it also helps avert dehydration, a serious threat to the elderly. Severe dehydration in the elderly can lead to cognitive impairment and functional decline. Making sure to drink six to eight glasses of water and fluids a day is essential. Dr. Richard Collins and Susan Buckley are members of the health-care team at South Denver Cardiology Associates. Collins, known as “The Cooking Cardiologist,” is board-certified in cardiology and internal medicine. Buckley is a registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator.

These are liberties that other advanced countries have had for a long time all while we have been arguing about answers that just seem all too obvious. The obviousness of these issues can be juxtaposed to the importance and urgency of other issues that should be addressed, that do belong to the people and the Supreme Court, that have a direct impact on all citizens’ lives. The constitution exemplifies individual rights, so while this is a relief for people who would not otherwise be able to afford healthcare, and a victory for the LGBT community, it is not a defeat for anyone. As President Obama said, not only are these Supreme Court decisions “reality” but “when all Americans are treated as equal, no matter who they are or whom they love, we are all more free” and may I add, more American.
Inga Kathe Johanns passed away peacefully in her home on June 27, 2015 surrounded by family. She was born on July 27, 1927 to H. Paul Würzberger and Lina (Kreuzer) Würzberger in Frankfurt, Germany. An only child, she was very close to her extended family; her aunt Kathe (Kreuzer) Nawrot and cousins Horst (Doris) Nawrot, Werner (Christa) Nawrot, and Lothar Nawrot, all who predecease her. Inga married Francis (Fritz) Johanns of Paulding, Ohio on November 13, 1949 at St. Wendel’s Catholic Church and through the Bürgermeister’s office in the Römer in Frankfurt Germany. They were taken to their wedding reception in a white carriage drawn by four white horses and such began their fairy tale romance and life together as they travelled the world during Fritz’s career in the United States Air Force.

S2 Sterling Ranch asks for wastewater help July 2, 2015
Dominion taking over old Roxborough plant, but needs start-up plan By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Likely hoping that past controversies between the city of Littleton and Sterling Ranch are water under the bridge, Sterling Ranch is hoping Littleton will offer a temporary helping hand with wastewater treatment. “We’ve started down the road of a wastewater system,” Mary Kay Provaznik, utilities director at Dominion Water and Sanitation District, told city council on June 23. “Our plant is operational now, it’s just more efficient to use yours with so few homes.” Sterling Ranch broke ground on June 6, west of Santa Fe Drive and south of Chatfield Reservoir. It will eventually be home to more than 30,000 people. The first project, Providence Village, includes 800 homes that will take a few years to complete and sell. Dominion will be the water and wastewater service for the entire Sterling Ranch community. It kicked in funds to double the size of Roxborough Water and Sanitation District’s new facility, still in the design stages, in exchange for use of RWSD’s current one. “Dominion WSD proposes to upgrade the existing Roxborough wastewater treatment plant in phases, and based on demand, to serve the Sterling Ranch development,” reads a 2009 study undertaken by consulting firm Tetra Tech. “...
Title to the wastewater facility will be transferred from Roxborough WSD to Dominion WSD at the time the plant goes back into service. … RWSD stopped operating their wastewater treatment plant and now sends wastewater flows to the Littleton/Englewood wastewater treatment plant.” A fact sheet about the new Roxborough facility says the district has an intergovermnetal agreement with Dominion to build a plant that can handle 8 million gallons of water a day. “By doubling the size of the WTP, the Roxborough community will benefit financially as Dominion Water District will be paying its share of the costs,” it reads. Dominion is offering to pay Littleton $200 per home per year for start-up and emergency service, with a minimum of $400,000. It’s only for wastewater services, not water, and Provaznik expects the arrangement to last just three or four years. Back in 2010, when Sterling Ranch founders Harold and Diane Smethills and Jack Hoagland were asking Littleton to annex the 3,400-acre project in Douglas County, estimates were that the city stood to make roughly $65 million from tap fees alone. The majority of the council at the time was opposed to annexation, saying the cost of added infrastructure necessary to accommodate it would outweigh any financial benefits. The same council ultimately made a deal with Denver Water that essentially nixed any future annexation. In exchange for a one-time payment of $2.6 million, council agreed the water company would not have to serve any new areas brought into the city.

Multiple police jurisdictions and an aware community member worked together to bring about the arrest of a suspected carjacker on June 23 in Castle Rock. Just after 7:30 a.m., Castle Rock police arrested 35-year-old Joshua Lane, a suspect accused of numerous crimes in Aurora and Denver, including a stabbing, a carjacking and several police pursuits. The suspect was sleeping in a stolen car outside the 7-Eleven near Plum Creek Parkway and Wilcox Street. An anonymous caller recognized the car from a television news Lane broadcast and called 911. Police arrested the man without incident. “Because of an aware community member, the media and teamwork between jurisdictions, we have one fewer criminal on the streets. This is something we should all be proud of,” said Castle Rock Police Chief Jack Cauley. Because the crimes started in Denver, Denver Police are the lead agency on the investigation.

Farmers markets in full bloom Vendors offer variety of fresh finds around area
AREA FARMERS MARKETS
By Taryn Walker
A list of some of the farmers markets in the Denver suburbs:
twalker@colorado communitymedia.com Wearing a giant smile and a khaki visor labeled “The Honey Gal,” Debra Ann Rivera called out to the crowd as she squirted whipped caramel honey onto wooden sticks for visitors to try. “I’ve got Colorado honey!” Rivera calls herself the honey gal because that’s who she is and what she does. She’s one of hundreds of vendors who sells products at famers markets in the Denver metro area. On a recent Wednesday, Rivera was working the market at Aspen Grove in Littleton. It’s one of five locations run by Metro Denver Farmers’ Markets. “Here, the public gets great exposure to a variety of produce, even organic, which people love nowadays,” Rivera said. “Remember those days of taking a family trip and seeing a sign that says ‘Cherries, apples and peaches,’ and just dying to stop and see what it was all about?” The best part of farmers markets is getting to be outside and tasting products, she said. “There’s this old nostalgic Americana feeling that people get when they can come buy local wildflower honey or fresh fruit from a stand,” Rivera said. Metro Denver’s market manager, John Herian, said Colorado honey isn’t something you can find at every store, and products like that are what keep the markets going. He said he encourages customers to come out and support local farmers, as this year has been a difficult one. “It’s a hard year for farmers because of replanting and delayed harvesting,” he said. “It makes it difficult to make their loan payments. Situations like this will put some farmers out of business, and sadly that happens all the time.” With heavy rain and hailstorms in spring, customers have been holding back on visiting the markets he oversees because of lack of produce, he added. “People tend to come to the farmers markets, especially ours, because we have the most farmers with fresh produce,” he said. “What they should know is to come and investigate the market to see what other goodies are available that they can’t find anywhere else.”
An eclectic mix
Farmers markets are a way to celebrate
Castle Rock: 8 a.m. to noon, Saturdays, July 11 through Oct. 3, Third and Elbert streets, Castle Rock Centennial: 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., July 18, features a market for kids; 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., Aug. 15; 13050 E. Peakview Ave. (Centennial Center Park) Highlands Ranch: 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. or sellout, Sundays through Nov. 1, 9288 Dorchester St. (Highlands Ranch Town Center) Lakewood: 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. or sellout, Saturdays through Sept. 26, 9077 W. Alameda Ave. (Mile Hi Church) Mazzotti Farms of Hudson supplied fresh produce including tomatoes, potatoes, cucumbers, peppers and green beans while at the Aspen Grove farmers market in Littleton on its second day open, June 24. culture, said Djehba Salih of Aurora. Through her business, Kente Konnection, she sells shea butter directly from Ghana, the African nation of her heritage. “You come to these markets, and a lot of it is always Americanized,” Salih said. “I started this up because I wanted to get back to my roots. My dad was born in Ghana, and my husband is from there.” The shea butter, which comes in giant, rotund ball shapes, is handmade by women and children in Africa through a sustainable program, she said. Salih admitted she was hesitant at first to come to the Centennial Artisan and Farmers Market, which is not affiliated with the Metro Denver group, but after she was formally invited, she decided to give it a try. “We sit back and laugh because in Ghana we’ve been making shea from nuts for hundreds of years, and here people sell products where they just put a drop of it in there and sell it for twice as much,” she explained. Saby Bujdoso operates a traveling, tikistyle, fresh-squeezed lemonade stand in Highlands Ranch — perfect for summertime farmers markets, he said. Every week he teams up with two other partners from Littleton to sell kettle corn and Danish pastries. “Farmers are the key to a farmers market. Without them I wouldn’t have all these lemons,” Bujdoso said. One of the only vendors with fresh produce at the Centennial market on June 20 was Diego Hernandez of Denver’s Ant D’s Fine Foods. He said the key to a great market is consistency. “If you’re not consistent, people won’t
come,” he said. “They need routine. It’s important to come out to the same spots.” Hernandez, a fourth-generation jam maker, sells a lot of jam. But it’s not just about jams and jellies — he has a variety of fresh produce, including mushrooms, eggs, peppers, peaches and strawberries. At the Highlands Ranch Farmers Market, Sean O’Connel, an employee of Mazzotti Farms in Hudson, said everything is late this year when it comes to produce. But his vendor stand had quite the spread of flowers, green beans, tomatoes and spinach. “I’d say by August 1, we’ll have a lot more. Everything from carrots and onions to beets and melons,” he said.
Produce still matters For some visitors, famers markets are marked on their calendar, while others come across them by accident. John Tinkler of Roxbourough said he was perusing offerings at the Highlands Ranch Town Center while waiting on a table at a nearby restaurant when he sampled some pork green chile from Mama Montoya’s out of Littleton. “I was just kind of here by accident, but I’ve been to this market the most,” he said. “I like to see what it’s like every week — check out the different products. I’ll probably be taking some of that pork green chile home today.” Also at the Highlands Ranch market was Littleton resident Peggy Rodger, and she knew exactly what she was leaving with when she arrived.
Littleton:10 a.m. to 2 p.m. or sellout, Wednesdays through Oct. 28, 7301 S. Sante Fe Drive (Aspen Grove Lifestyle Center) Parker: 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., Sundays through Oct. 25, Mainstreet and Pikes Peak Drive, downtown Parker Southwest Plaza: 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. or sellout, Saturdays through Oct. 31, Wadsworth and Bowles (Southeast Parking lot) Wheat Ridge: 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. or sellout, Thursdays through Oct. 29, 4252 Wadsworth Blvd.
“I was here last weekend, but now there’s a super deal. The flowers are buy one, get one. Now, I’m just waiting for the organic produce to come in,” Rodger said. Others come and don’t find what they’re looking for. Several customers in Centennial mentioned the lack of fresh produce and that some of the markets in the area are more like street markets. Amanda Wentworth and her 22-monthold son, Kyler, were sharing a frozen treat while walking down the long aisle of the Aspen Grove farmers market. She said she comes to the market to support local businesses. For Wentworth, a Littleton resident, it’s “absolutely” necessary that the markets have fresh produce when in season. Monica Sharp, of Littleton, who was adorned with recyclable bags on each arm, agreed. “I probably wouldn’t come here if they didn’t have any produce, especially because Colorado is known for growing so much. It’s very important, but I do like some of the other things here,” she said.

Chowing down continues amid massive storm Not even a massive storm that swept through Genesee and pulverized the rest of the metro area on the night of June 24 could dampen the spirits of media members gathered at the new Hideaway Kitchen + Bar to see the space renovation and sample fine fare from new executive chef Nick Shankland, who laid out an impressive spread. The restaurant, owned by Alan Zizmor, closed its doors in December and reopened in April with the new chef, new general manager Scott Tallman, a Denver restaurant veteran, and a new attitude. Zizmor, who largely relied on locals who have supported the restaurant through its growing pains, largely change the menu to a shared-plates concept, and let Shankland, whose resume includes stints at Colt & Gray, Old Major and Central Bistro, work his culinary magic on the menu. Our group was treated to tasting portions of fig, tomato and white chocolate salad off the lunch menu, farro risotto off the vegetarian side, mussels and Manila clams from the seafood list, house-made sausage from the farm category, fried naked chicken and pork ribs from the comfort food list, crabcake Benedict off the brunch menu and cherry hand pie with sour ice cream for dessert. Each course was beautifully paired with wine and cocktail samples. Hideaway features a gorgeous outdoor patio with humongous umbrellas, which shielded us from the downpour. The restaurant serves lunch and dinner daily, along with Sunday brunch. For reservations and more information, go to www.hideawaykitchen.com or call 303-526-0556.
Tourism continues upward trend
Colorado set all-time records in terms of visitor volume, visitor expenditures and tax revenue in 2014, welcoming 71.3 million visitors to the state who spent $18.6 billion and generated $1.1 billion in tax revenue, according to an announcement last week by the Colorado Tourism Office. This is the fourth consecutive year the CTO has seen record-setting growth. “These outstanding results prove once again that tourism is one of the top drivers of positive economic impact and job growth in Colorado,” said Gov. John Hickenlooper.
Total direct travel spending in Colorado in 2014 reached $18.6 billion, with 66 percent of that total coming from visitors who stayed overnight in paid acPenny Parker commodations (hotels, motels, MILE HIGH rented condos, LIFE campgrounds, RV parks and bed-and-breakfasts), according to the Colorado Travel Impacts 2014 report by Dean Runyan & Associates. This record spending figure represents an increase of 7.4 percent over 2013, significantly outpacing the national growth rate of 4.5 percent in visitor expenditures. Since 1996, visitorgenerated spending has increased at an average annual rate of 4.2 percent, earnings by 3.1 percent and local and state tax revenues by 5.3 percent and 3.1 percent, respectively.

Teller Bar launches drink ritual
Teller Bar, the signature social lounge at The Renaissance Denver Downtown at the Colorado National Bank, has launched the Renaissance Bar Ritual, an experiential event, which will take place from 5 to 6 p.m. five nights a week. The Renaissance Bar Ritual program encourages guests to make time for the 5 to 9 p.m. period of the day, after the 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. work is completed. As part of Renaissance Hotels’ “Business Unusual” philosophy, the Bar Ritual is designed to defy the notion of conventional business travel by helping guests uncover local experiences. Rather than passively sitting at the bar, patrons are invited to discover more about local spirits and wines, and, most evenings, take part in making a spirited punch. Each week, on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, original punch recipes using local spirits will be showcased. Guests will actively take part in crafting the recipe, with the assistance of Teller Bar’s bartenders. Those participating will then be able to sip and enjoy their creation. Each Wednesday, or “Winedown Wednesday,” will feature complimentary wine tastings, which will also often be highlighted by meet-and-greets and talks from winery owners.

WIN Butterflies back at Chatfield FREE TICKETS! Pavilion, gardens working together on summer project By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com
Monarch, painted lady, passion butterfly, queen, pipevine swallowtail, viceroy, red admiral and more will be in residence … For a second summer, the Butterfly Pavilion and Denver Botanic Gardens have cooperated on a seasonal habitat experience called Butterflies at Chatfield. The structure is 1,500 square feet, and new chrysalids are delivered every week to emerge in a custom chrysalis chamber as visitors watch. The structure is planted with a garden of more than 50 native Colorado plant species that provide a habitat for the butterflies. This collection will provide good information for gardeners who want to join the movement towards planting more varieties that are especially attractive to pollinators. The Butterfly Pavilion, located in Westminster for 19 years, was the first stand-alone invertebrate zoo in the United States and has grown to expect nearly 300,000 visitors annually. It has four indoor exhibit areas, 11 acres of public gardens, education classrooms and event space. The Gardens at Chatfield, established after the 1965 flood, is a 750-acre native plant display with working and historic farms in south Jefferson County.
Butterflies at Chatfield is a showcase, 1,500-square-foot structure that features butterflies native to Colorado. With luck, a visitor will see a monarch like this. The structure features more than 50 indigenous Colorado plants as a habitat. Courtesy photo

Denver Botanic Gardens isn’t just about flowers
Food program helps many people around metro area By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com Starting in 2010, Denver Botanic Gardens launched the first communitysupported agriculture (CSA) program at a U.S. botanic garden, with weekly seasonal distributions to members in Denver and Littleton — about 265 members in 2015, according to program manager Josie Hartt. In 2014, the Botanic Gardens expanded outeach to underserved communities through urban food initiatives. And in May of this year, a three-year grant from Kaiser Permanente was announced to support expansion in Denver-area food deserts, where access to fresh produce is slim to none for some families and individuals. Through cooperation with the Denver Housing Authority and Denver Human Services, three weekly farm stands are available at DHS offices at 1200 Federal Blvd., 4685 Peoria St. and 3815 Steele St. Food stamps are accepted at all locations. Hartt, who comes from a background as an educator, has been with DBG for 10 years. In family and children’s programs she has recognized a disconnect, with kids and adults, about where food comes from. “We need a CSA. We need to know a farmer.” Six acres are devoted to sustainable farming, with no pesticides or herbicides, for the CSA program and another quarter-acre specifically for the farm stands, she said. A market grower oversees the farming and farm stands and works with the Veterans Reintegration Program to offer hands-on farming and vocational training. A coordinator was also hired to work with the farm stands. CSA shareholders pay a flat $475 in advance for the season, and distribution is once weekly at both the Chatfield and York Street gardens. More than one planting is possible, and the end of the season depends on the weather.
Volunteers are recruited to pick and weed. Some members assist in harvesting and others come out on “gleaning days” to gather leftovers after regular harvesting is done in an area. “Youpick” days are pretty popular, Hartt said. Some volunteers gather and sell cut flowers from the cutting garden. Working shareholders receive a discount at the end of the season. Regarding the farm stands, Hartt said they used to donate CSA leftovers to food banks, but were “unable to track produce after it left our hands — didn’t know if it impacted lives…” With the Kaiser grant, they can produce specifically for each farm stand — Hispanic families may want different items than others, for example. And the program has just started an arrangement with Commissary Kitchens to prepare healthful snacks that don’t require cooking for homeless individuals and families served by DHS to be distributed from farm stands. All produce is labeled in English and Spanish, with nutritional information and recipes. Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield was formed after the land was declared a flood zone following the 1965 flood (not fit for housing). The website shows some current flooded fields. The historic Hildebrand Farm is included in the property and restored for use, including the historic Deer Creek School. There are chickens, goats, two edgy miniature horses, two turkeys and some ducks in residence. Each year, 10 acres of pumpkins are planted and grown for sale at the October Pumpkin Festival. There is a barn where many weddings are held, wetlands and other ecological zones to hike, and about 250 different kinds of birds to be seen in the course of a year. Educational programs include beginning farming, farm camps for kids and more. And it’s a lovely place to walk, tucked against the hogbacks.
Chatfield Farms features six acres of sustainably grown fresh produce, which is distributed to CSA members in local communities and at inner-city farm stands. Courtesy photo

Martial-arts studio shows power of faith Victory Taekwondo members going to competition in Texas By Nick Puckett
Special to Colorado Community Media The taekwondo studio sits in a Parker strip mall, sandwiched between the Sprouts grocery and Murdoch’s ranch supply stores. Above the door, a yellow sign — barely visible from the street — reads “Martial Arts.” The doors are propped wide open in an effort to air out the overpowering smell of bare feet and sweat. Almost perfectly harmonic “kee-yas” travel across the parking lot. Inside, parents sit in black metal chairs, watching 30 girls and boys, ages 6 to 12, methodically spar on worn red and blue mats. The white walls are barren of awards and trophies. But don’t let the humbleness of the Victory Taekwondo dojang fool you: Six members of Victory will compete July 4 at the USA Taekwondo National Championship in Austin, Texas. Korban Leeper, 7, and his father Jeff, 30; Ellie Bowman, 12; Trinity Sison, 12; Jordan Laudan, 15; and instructor Chris Endo, 21, medaled at the state tournament March 7 in Aurora to qualify. With the exception of Bowman, this is the first national appearance for the athletes. “We’re going there to have a great experience,” said Bowman, “and to learn from it.”
Precision movements
The students respond to cadences from Master Ramil Abratique, the studio’s owner, like soldiers following a drill instructor, conducting precise movements for each kick, yelling in unison. Step. Pivot. Swing. Kick. “Kiyah!” Repeat. Suddenly, the flailing kicks stop and the room falls silent. Students stand at attention like statues, waiting for the next command. On either side of them, inspirational quotes
Taekwondo master and owner of Victory Taekwondo Ramil Abratique organizes his students to begin sparring at practice. Photos by Nick Puckett are written across the tops of the walls. “The difference between perseverance and obstinacy is that one often comes from a strong will, and the other from a strong won’t.” — Henry Beecher “Greater is he who acts from love than he who acts from fear.” — Simeon Ben Eleazar That’s the mantra the master preaches to his students. “For me, life skills and leadership are very, very important,” said Abratique, 45. “If we have a black belt with excellent life skills and leadership training, our community will be stronger … I really want to develop leaders.” Victory Taekwondo, like many other taekwondo studios, focuses on developing a good attitude within its students first and training them in Olympic-style taekwondo second. The instructors “teach them respect,” said Taekwondo continues on Page 21

Marsha Bowman, Ellie’s mother. “You have to be a very productive individual.” The athletes, most not old enough to drive, strive to embody the teachings. “When I get tired, I just keep going,” Korban Leeper said. “You always have to look for the best,” Laudan said, “not the worst.”
Owner faces struggles
Abratique, an international medalist and undefeated, 10-time Philippine national champion, moved to Colorado from California in 2010 with his wife and two children, now 6 and 8. He bought a taekwondo studio and moved to Parker in January of that year. But, in what he described as a bad business deal, he found himself struggling to keep the doors open after only two weeks. “We lost everything,” Abratique said. “Our money, our savings — everything.” The unemployment checks of his wife, Caryl, laid off from her job at Blue Cross Blue Shield before moving to Colorado, supported the family. Abratique closed the studio that August, but later that month opened Victory in a cramped building next to the Parker motor vehicles office. Seven students followed Abratique to his new studio — their lesson fees, combined with some of the unemployment money, was enough to pay rent, he said. He named the studio Victory after his church in the Philippines, Victory Christian Fellowship. Abratique chose the name because of the biblical principles he uses in his studio. “The word itself is very strong,” Abratique said. “When the word ‘victory’ is in your subconscious, you always strive to do what is right, excel and be positive in every way.” Some days, he recalled, he had to choose between paying the rent on his house and paying his lease.
“That was the toughest time of my life,” said Abratique. “If it’s only me and my wife, we’ll be fine. The thing is, we have kids, and they were really young. That’s what was killing me.” Abratique chose the lease in hopes the business would generate income for his family. At the time, Parker was already home to five other taekwondo studios, making competition stiff. He worked tirelessly at local events to promote his studio — by November, he said, enrollment had grown enough to break even. And every day he prayed. “Prayer and faith played a big role during our difficult times,” Abratique said. One day after practice, five months after opening, a parent who said he was inspired by Abratique’s hard work and dedication to his students loaned him $1,500. The gesture moved Abratique to tears. He used the money to move Victory to its new location. Since then, he said, business has skyrocketed.
Life lessons
At the end of a recent practice, Abratique sits with a student and the boy’s father. At the father’s request, Abratique demotes the student to yellow belt for his behavior at home and at school. The student sits quietly and listens. Abratique lectures him like a stern father, promising to re-promote the student once he begins behaving at home. That relationship is key to the studio’s success, parents say. “He treats the kids like his own,” Marsha Bowman said. “There’s a mutual respect between” him and the students. On the wall above Abratique’s desk is another quote, this one his own, one he says represents the life experience he wants to share with his students. It goes like this: “Life is a journey that you mold to become a stronger, smarter and better person. Achieving your goals requires motivation, perseverance and strong will. When you fall, you get up and keep going. Never give up, my friend, so you may live life in Victory.”

A WHOLE NEW BALL GAME For high school athletes, finding the right college is now driven by technology By Jim Benton
jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Mike Brookhart was a three-sport standout who graduated in 1979 from Cherry Creek High School. Despite his talent, Brookhart wouldn’t have become a four-year baseball letterman and team captain at the University of Northern Colorado if not for baseball coach Marc Johnson. “Marc Johnson made the calls for me to the University of Denver, University of Wyoming and Northern Colorado,” said Brookhart, Cherry Creek’s boys basketball coach and the school’s former football coach. “Then the coach would come and see me. That’s kind of the old way.” Recruiting has changed immensely with email, Twitter, YouTube, showcase events and myriad summer camps on college campuses. Bill Bufton, Valor Christian’s college recruiting coordinator, has seen the Recruit continues on Page 23

Websites play major role By Nick Puckett
npuckett@colorado communitymedia.com Recruiting websites have become one of the most popular tools for many high school athletes aspiring to play college sports. The sites allow athletes to create profiles for databases used by college coaches seeking a specific type of athlete. Coaches can then contact the athlete, as long as all NCAA regulations are met. Adam Toyama, director of recruiting for football at the University of Colorado, said he uses some sites for “supplemental information.” “Some sites have their transcripts,” said Toyama. “(We can see) whether or not they can get into the University of Colorado.” Toyama declined to comment on the extent to which the program uses the websites. Athlete profiles usually consist of basic information, athletic honors, statistics, highlight videos and photos. Per NCAA regulations, athlete profiles, in order for a coach to contact the athlete, must also include academic records and a written statement of the athlete’s intent. Andy McKernan, content strategist at the National Collegiate Sports Association, said the group’s website, NCSAsports.org, operates like a “match.com … for coaches and athletes,” where coaches can filter through a database of athlete profiles depending on what they are looking for, and athletes can find coaches in need of a roster spot. Most sites allow the user to create a profile for free. For a fee, some sites contact coaches — who must have a paid membership — on behalf of the athlete; provide users access to recruitment consultation by recruiting experts; produce, edit and distribute highlight videos; or even allow the user featured coverage on the site.
“It’s well worth it to spend a little bit of money to earn a scholarship,” said Mike Alexander, director of recruiting at MVPSportsRecruiting.com. “It’s a huge weight off a parent’s shoulders.” When asked if the site was profitable, Alexander replied with a chuckle, “Yes. It’s my job. It better be.” The price can vary depending on the amount of exposure the athlete is looking for, the number of coaches who access the sites’ athlete-profile database and quality of the profiles themselves. For a little extra cash, some sites even throw in professional scouting evaluations. MVP Sports Recruiting and NCSASports. org, like most recruiting websites, focus on getting smaller-name athletes recruited by smaller schools, as well as Division I-caliber athletes. “Everyone knows about the ranked players,” said Alexander. “It really helps the D-II and D-III college coaches because they don’t have the budget to travel and go to select games across the country.” Alexander said most users of the site seek a school based on academic merit first, then worry about earning an athletic scholarship to help pay for the school. Overall, the sites are designed as middle men between coaches and athletes. “Families can fall into the trap of relying on a local resource like a coach who is stretched too thin or an athletic director,” said McKernan. Some sites, like NCSAsports.org, offer grants to students who can’t afford the premium membership based on academic and athletic merit. Access to new high school recruiting technology is a double-edged sword: It provides opportunities for scholarships, but typically at a high price. “With new technology there are new issues,” said Toyama. “Everything is constantly evolving. It’s good and bad.”

You’ve got to pay to play By Jim Benton
jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com It can be expensive for athletes to catch the attention of college recruiters at a summer camp, recruiting event or national tournament. Ponderosa senior-to-be quarterback Nick Wilson went to the Boston College camp along with tight end Matt Brady. Both players were scheduled to attend other camps, as well. “It is pretty expensive but my parents definitely support me in everything I do,” said Wilson, who passed for 1,423 yards last season and rushed for another 564 yards. Brady has an arrangement with his parents. “I kind of have an agreement with my parents as long as I work hard and train as much
as I can, they are willing to help me get to the next level,” he said. “It’s hard to get to the next level without putting yourself out there.” Lou Arvanetes’ son Bridger is a sophomore at Ponderosa and is going to several camps, including Cincinnati and Montana. “You have to sell yourself, it’s not like it used to be,” said Arvanetes. “It’s a financial commitment in all sports. For him football is his choice. We (are going) went to Cincinnati because his grandfather could see him and we (are going) went to Montana because that’s where he was born.” It has become almost necessary for players and teams to attend camps because that’s become a good place get face-to-face exposure to coaches and display athletic talents. “Part of it is playing with club teams and playing out of state because there are a lot of college coaches there,” said 6-3 Arapahoe
junior basketball player Kyle Lukasiewicz, who averaged 9.5 points a game as a sophomore. “I’d say recruiting is mostly with the club teams because that’s what most colleges look at. Once you get spotted, then they call Lukasiewicz your high school.” Valerie Ortega, a juniorto-be catcher for the Mountain Range softball team, plays for the Colorado Stars. “The good part about being on my team, the Colorado Stars Gold, is our head coach (Dan Burns) pays for our flights, hotels and food whenever we travel,” she said. “So the only financial stuff my parents have to deal with is just the fee for the season. “On my competitive team we have three
coaches and one coach is strictly for recruiting. I started sending out emails to colleges my freshman year just giving them information and I sent a skills video. I sent one to the University of Pittsburgh, and that coach liked what she saw and sent an email to my recruiting coach and said, ‘We’re going to see her during the summer, and we’re interested in her.’ So I’m a verbal to Pittsburgh right now.” Burns and the Colorado Stars host a Louisville Slugger Independence Day Tournament that last season attracted 363 coaches from 255 colleges and 160 teams from 30 states. All tournament profits support the Boulder competitive Girls Softball Program, which covers the Stars’ travel expenses to tournaments. Club fees are $2,000 per season.
Going camping, clubbing Staff report
Summer sports camps and club play are among the most important facets of the recruiting game. Here’s what three area high school athletes have to say:
Marc Muma, football Riley Craig, softball
The Mountain Range senior-to-be, who hit .527 last season, has committed to Stony Brook University. She said playing in summer club softball tournaments in front of college coaches was pressurized. “I knew I had to be on my A game and always be focused, even though I might have made a mistake,” she explained. “I knew I had to shake it off because that’s what coaches look at. It was very nerve-racking too because you want to look and play your best in front of coaches no matter if they are D-I, D-II or D-III. I was very nervous.”
Matt Brady, football
The Ponderosa senior-to-be tight end, who moved back to Parker after playing last season in Utah, considers camp exposure very important. “It’s hard to get to the next level without putting yourself out there,” he said. “Not very many kids are going to have some colleges looking for them. You’ve got to get your name out there and start talking to coaches.”
Recruit Continued from Page 22
evolution. “With the technology now, it actually makes it easier because you can send a quick email to a coach and load your hudl. com film or YouTube video,” he said. “But now instead of coaches getting packages every day of DVDs, their email boxes are just getting slammed.” But ThunderRidge football coach Joe Johnson questions whether technology has really improved the recruiting process. “It used to be that it was pretty much a hard-and-fast rule that somebody from the (college’s) staff had to visibly and personally see a kid and make contact before they would (make) an offer,” he said. “Once a kid gets an offer, other teams start to jump on the bandwagon, and they haven’t seen or met the kid, in some cases. That is really shocking to me. That seems like a bad policy. A lot of information can get put on sites that a kid pays for, and they put whatever they want on there.”
Getting noticed
Many high schools have employed recruiting personnel, and club teams have coaches that specialize in recruiting. Much of the early contact with college
Former Cherry Creek football coach Mike Brookhart now coaches the Bruins’ basketball team. Photo by Jim Benton coaches comes during off-season club tournaments and showcases. Athletes are encouraged to email coaches and let them know their schedule of club tournaments or high school games. Many of the showcase events are now labeled recruiting tournaments attract college coaches, who at one event can look at several players who have contacted them. “That’s what draws them to these events,” said Mountain Range girls soft-
The junior-to-be quarterback at Legend High school, who passed for 1,401 yards last season, went to the Peyton Manning Passing Academy last year and will attend camps at UCLA, the University of Colorado and Wyoming this summer. “I’m going to the UCLA camp just to check it out and have fun playing with all those California guys that go to that camp,” Muma said. “I just do it to get some insight of how good other people are and to get some extra coaching. “In the Manning camp, mostly the college players had some really good tips of what to do and how they played in their high school career and what they do now. It was really eye-opening.”
ball coach Dane Craig. “You have to send emails directly to these schools, and it starts at a young age. They come and say, ‘Hey this girl has been emailing me for six months. I’ll see how she plays.’ It’s all about emails and YouTube videos.” Bufton agrees that a little advance notice on an athlete’s part is helpful. “Coaches at an AAU tournament, club tournament or showcase aren’t just walking around trying to find a diamond in the rough,” he said. “Those days are completely over.” Technology also has helped high school athletes get on colleges’ radars earlier, and some are making commitments as early as their sophomore seasons. College basketball recruiters know all about Lakewood’s Kolton Peterson. The junior-to-be was the second-leading Class 5A scorer in the state last season with 23 points per game. Peterson was playing in the Continental-Centennial basketball challenge in Littleton on June 18, and after the game he spent time outside talking on his cell phone to an interested college. “June 15 was the first day schools could talk to you,” said Peterson. “I actually got nine calls, and I just got off the phone with Northern Iowa. College coaches come to a lot of events in July.”
The eyes don’t lie
Many colleges maintain the personal aspect of recruiting, though they often fa-
cilitate it through modern means. “We’re able to contact players by emailing or texting them,” said Metro State University women’s golf coach Ben Portie. “I don’t sign a player unless I see them play, how they act on the course and watch their temperament. That’s old school.” Craig, an assistant coach who helps with recruiting for the Colorado Stars summer team, agrees that emails and videos don’t show everything. “A lot of these recruiters will come, watch girls warm up and won’t even stay for the game,” he said. “Or they’ll watch how the girls react after a strikeout, after an error or how they react after getting a home run hit off them. They’ll even watch to see if they carry their own bag after a game, how they talk to the coach, do they hang out with the team, are they a leader on the field and stuff like that. So much of building a team these days is about fit.” That’s also still true from the athlete’s perspective, in many cases. Jake Staiano, who helped Valor Christian win the Class 4A state golf championship in 2013 and 2014, signed to play at Colorado State University, but not without making sure the school suited him. “It worked both ways,” Staiano said. “I contacted them and coach (Christian) Newton, and he came to see me. I made two trips to Fort Collins to see the school. It was just the best place for me.”

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Making things more complicated than they need to be can be a problem for the typically orderly Lamb. Try to look for a less intricate way to accomplish the same goals. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Avoiding personal involvement in a troubling situation might be advisable at this time, especially since you probably don’t have all the facts. The weekend brings a surprise. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A problem with a colleague you thought had been resolved could recur. However, this time you’ll be able to rely on your record to get a quick resolution in your favor. Good luck.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A recent workplace problem will prove to be one of miscommunication, and once the matter is settled, you should have a better chance of getting your proposals approved. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Good news! After dealing pretty much in the dark with a matter that seemed to be taking forever to resolve, you should soon be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) A positive message should help lift that energy-draining sense of anxiety, and you should soon be able to deal with even the peskiest matter, whether at work or personal. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Try to control that heated Sagittarian temperament while dealing with what you believe to be an unfair matter. A cool approach is the best way to handle things. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Nursing hurt feelings could keep you from learning what went wrong. Ask your partner, a family member or a trusted friend to help you reassess your actions in the matter. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Nature is dominant this week. Try to spend time outdoors with someone special. An act of kindness in the past might be recalled by a person you believed was out of your life. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) An upcoming career decision could be based on how well you might be able to apply your artistic talents. Be sure to use the finest samples of your work to make a strong impression. BORN THIS WEEK: Doing good things for others comes easily to you. You are considered a good friend, even by those you might hardly know. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

The area of the proposed exclusion is generally described as all of the real property located within the boundaries of the District in Arapahoe and Douglas Counties, and is being undertaken coincident with the inclusion of all of the property into the boundaries of Parker Fire Protection District (“Parker”). This step is being taken solely for the purpose of completing the merger of the two districts that began in 2008. Since that time the two districts have operated jointly under an intergovernmental authority to provide fire protection and life safety services to the combined areas of both districts. No change to those services is expected to occur as a result of the changes in the physical boundaries of the districts. Currently, the District’s mill levy for collection in 2015 is 9.25 mills and the mill levy for Parker for collection in 2015 is 13.053 mills. Assuming the completion of the merger process, the mill levy certified by each of the districts this December for collection in 2016 will be not more than 9.25 mills. NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that all persons interested shall appear at the designated time and place and show cause in writing why the resolution should not be finally adopted. The failure of any person in the existing special district to file a written objection shall be taken as an assent on his or her part to the exclusion of the area described in this notice.

INVERNESS WSD 2015 Drinking Water Quality Report For Calendar Year 2014 Public Water System ID: CO0203012 Esta es información importante. Si no la pueden leer, necesitan que alguien se la traduzca. We are pleased to present to you this year’s water quality report. Our constant goal is to provide you with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. Please contact KELLY CONOVER at 303-649-9857 with any questions about the Drinking Consumer Confidence Rule (CCR) or for public participation opportunities that may affect the water quality. This report is available for public viewing online at www.invernesswater.org. It will also be published in the Littleton Independent and the Douglas County NewsPress legal section. You can also call the office at 303-649-9857 for an email or paper copy. General Information
• Nephelometric Turbidity Unit (NTU) − Measure of the clarity or cloudiness of water. Turbidity in excess of 5 NTU is just noticeable to the typical person. • Compliance Value (No Abbreviation) – Single or calculated value used to determine if regulatory contaminant level (e.g. MCL) is met. Examples of calculated values are the 90th Percentile, Running Annual Average (RAA) and Locational Running Annual Average (LRAA). • Average (x-bar) − Typical value. • Range (R) − Lowest value to the highest value. • Sample Size (n) − Number or count of values (i.e. number of water samples collected). • Parts per million = Milligrams per liter (ppm = mg/L) − One part per million corresponds to one minute in two years or a single penny in $10,000. • Parts per billion = Micrograms per liter (ppb = ug/L) − One part per billion corresponds to one minute in 2,000 years, or a single penny in $10,000,000. • Not Applicable (N/A) – Does not apply or not available. Detected Contaminants
All drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1-800-426-4791) or by visiting http://water.epa.gov/drink/contaminants.
