Grads start ‘whole new life’ Social justice, millennial generation topics at commencement ceremony BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

After two former Englewood mayors and two other residents filed a petition to recall Englewood City Councilmember Laurett Barrentine, about six weeks remain until the deadline to submit more than 350 valid signatures that would be required to trigger a recall election. The city clerk’s office authorized the petition May 7, which means supporters of the recall have until 60 days after that date to hand it in.
A successful petition would lead to an election to decide whether to unseat Barrentine, the councilmember for District 3, the city’s middle and southeast region. It would be the first city council recall election in Englewood in more than 20 years, and just the third in city history, according to a city document. The group of petitioners, including former Mayors Jim Woodward and Randy Penn, have accused Barrentine, who was elected in 2015, of “bullying and unwarranted threats to fire city employees” and of “regular distortion of facts and outright lies.” “Council Member Laurett Barrentine demonstrates conduct unbecoming of an elected official and creates a toxic, counterproductive dynamic on Englewood SEE RECALL, P19

Newsman with ties to Littleton dies at 63 Randy Bangert was son of noted journalist who worked at Independent BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Sad news crossed though our newsroom with the word that Greeley Tribune editor emeritus Randy Bangert had passed away on May 9 at age 63 following a battle with pancreatic cancer. He had ties to Littleton and the Independent. Not only did he deliver the paper but his dad, Vern Bangert was Bangert co-owner and publisher, with editor Garrett Ray, from 1969 to 1981. Randy Bangert graduated from Arapahoe High School and went to the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley, where he started part-time work with the Tribune as a student journalist, first as a clerk, then as a sportswriter, according to the Tribune’s Teri Frei. He was hired full time before he graduated and never worked anywhere else. First the sports editor, he then became assistant city editor in 1982. Frei says he became editor of the Greeley Tribune in 2006 and was applauded by many associates for
MY NAME IS
CURT FULSTER
his balanced, professional manner as he dealt with controversy and with people with whom he may have disagreed — in city government and in local, state and national politics. One can imagine the dinner table talk at home while Randy Bangert was growing up. The award-winning Littleton Independent was an institution in itself after many years with nationally recognized editor Houstoun Waring at the helm. Vern Bangert was working at the Independent after earlier newspaper work in Nebraska, as part of a 24year newspaper career that included founding the Milford Times in Milford, Nebraska. Waring had gone up to Boulder to visit the University of Colorado journalism school, asking for the best graduate. Garrett Ray was recommended and hired after he and his wife Nina spent a year in Brigham City, Utah. Garrett Ray and Vern Bangert took over ownership of the Littleton Independent and carried on in Waring’s tradition, at times, taking a position that displeased some Littleton residents. (Ray, incidentally, grew up in Greeley and his mother worked for the Tribune.) Randy Bangert and Garrett Ray, 81, were both recently inducted into the Colorado Press Association Hall of Fame. In 1981, Waring and Vern Bangert sold the Independent and Bangert retired. He died in March 2001 in Arizona, from cancer, which also took the life of his son.
Children’s book author, former youth hockey coach Books kids won’t hate I started writing children’s books about three years ago, and soon I’ll be publishing my seventh book. I used to coach youth hockey, and one of the player’s parents told me how his son hated reading, so I figured I’d take a shot at writing something kids wouldn’t hate. I try to make sure all my books have a good moral. One is about a snake who gets bullied by turtles, because they think all snakes are bad. He keeps trying to fit in with them, but at the end he learns to just be himself. Another is about a balloon who plays a game with a sunflower and a hot air balloon to see who can jump the highest. He wants to jump to the moon and keeps trying goofier ways. They’re fun. For a good cause I visit Ronald McDonald Houses with a friend of mine who’s also an author. We read to any kids who are there. We each bring a handful of books to give out to kids. I’m also doing Donation Books, where I write and illustrate a book and donate the profits to charity. I chose a charity that supports music education for kids. I’m doing another one with profits going to Colorado Veterans Project, to support vets who are down on their luck. Last year I held a Donation Month, where any profits I got went to dogs for kids with disabilities, and to help find a cure for childhood cancer.
Curt Fulster writes children’s books under the name C. Fulsty. COURTESY OF ROBIN CAIN Nuts and bolts I have a job working for a company that sells nuts and bolts. I’d love to pay my bills with writing. Right now writing is a nights and weekends pursuit. It’s weird saying I’m an author because I’m not living off it, but I hope I can do it full time someday. All my books are on Amazon currently. Nom de plume My pen name came about by following Dr. Seuss’ naming convention of tweaking your name a bit so it’s more memorable. Also, I always thought the best authors were those with initials. There are a lot of people in hockey whose names end in Y, so I combined both of those tropes and came up with my pen name: C. Fulsty.

New building taking shape on former site of Valley Feed Three-story structure at west end of downtown to hold retail, offices BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The newest addition to downtown Littleton’s rapidly evolving Main Street is taking shape on the site of the old Valley Feed store, at the northwest end of downtown near the Melting Pot fondue restaurant. Simply called 2679 Main Street, the building stands three stories tall, and will feature street-facing retail totaling roughly 3,800 square feet. The upper floors, which are set back from the street, will hold office space. The building is expected to be open for business by this coming October, said Josh Rowland, the principal of LAI Design Group, which designed the structure. No tenants are currently lined up, but interest in the space is high, said broker Jay Johnson of VanWest Real Estate Group, which is marketing the space. The building incorporates 55 parking spaces, most of which will be in a garage toward the rear of the building. Jon Benallo, the senior vice president of 2679 Main Street Partners, which owns the building, did not respond to requests for comment. The building’s design was modified to bring it into compliance with guidelines of the Main Street Historic District, said Jocelyn Mills, the city’s
The building on the site of the old Valley Feed store on Main Street in downtown Littleton was modified to conform with the standards of the historic district that encompasses downtown. DAVID GILBERT community development director. “The approval process resulted in the developer eliminating a planned fourth story that would have included residential units,” Mills said. “The building also butts up against the sidewalk, like most of the other buildings along Main Street.” The developers agreed to incorporate other design elements and materials in order to meet conditions imposed by the city’s Historic Preservation Board, Mills said. The building could help draw foot traffic to the west end of Main Street,
which has historically seen less economic activity than the east end, said Greg Reinke, the president of the Historic Downtown Merchants Association. “It’s going to be awesome,” Reinke said. “The shopping district isn’t broken up anymore. In all the years I’ve lived here, hardly anyone ever ventured down that far. It’s going to bring more people, but that’s what we need. That’s what’s making the area successful. If you look at the other new blood in the area, like The Tavern and Ned Kelly’s Irish Pub, they’re investing in
their properties and downtown.” The building is a sign of the times, said Mickey Kempf, the president of Bradford Auto Body, which is located immediately east of the new building and is dwarfed by the new façade. “I look at it as your city’s either going to grow or die,” Kempf said. “If you want it to die, hey, complain like hell. But if not, don’t worry about it. Things happen. That building next to us, it’s huge. Is it something I’m enthused about? Not necessarily. But our city is growing because of people like that who are building and keeping things going. I don’t have any great complaints. It might even bring in more business. Who knows?” The building is a net gain for downtown, said Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman. “One business is being replaced by perhaps up to a dozen,” Brinkman said. “It provides employment and more services for residents so they don’t have to spend their money in other towns. The developers had a thoughtful consideration of design and how it fits into the character of downtown. I appreciate diligence on trying to maintain our uniqueness. In this instance they were spot on. You have a developer who was willing to work with the constraints, and that’s huge. Valley Feed served its purpose. You have to move on. A feed store downtown is no longer appropriate. We need to grow and change in a style that’s our own. As long as we continue to do it with an awareness of who we are, we’ll continue to be one of the most admired suburbs in the metro area.”
Centennial opts into countywide transportation forum Partnership to focus funding on traffic improvement priorities BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Tired of that thin stretch of East County Line Road between South Broadway and South University Boulevard? How about the intersections on East Arapahoe Road? Ever lament the commute through East Belleview Avenue? Drivers may be in luck. Centennial agreed to enter a partnership between several cities and towns in Arapahoe County at a recent city council meeting, where the city opted into a transportation forum that meets to decide how federal money granted to the county will be spent. If all entities opt in, the agreement would also include the cities of Aurora, Cherry
Hills Village, Englewood, Glendale, Greenwood Village, Sheridan and Littleton; the towns of Bennett, Bow Mar, Columbine Valley, Deer Trail and Foxfield; and Arapahoe County. “This is the first agreement of its kind” for the city, said Travis Greiman, public-works director for Centennial. Historically, the city had to compete against the whole region of the Denver Regional Council of Governments — including a multitude of cities and towns in Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Denver, Douglas, Jefferson and more counties — for federal transportation money, a city report said. DRCOG, often pronounced “Dr. Cog,” leads urban-planning efforts for the Denver area and acts as the conduit for grant money to flow to local agencies. Under a new proposed model, money would be broken up among counties in the region for local transportation projects. Cities and towns
would still compete for 20 percent of the funds for regional projects, like a project on Interstate 70, but 80 percent of the money would be split among each county based on population, vehicle miles traveled and the employment in the counties. Each county would oversee the funds, and the county and its cities and towns would compete for that money. Arapahoe County would receive about $35 million for the 2020-23 cycle of the roadwayproject funding under that proposed model. Although different transportation projects have unique requirements that determine cost, for context, $35 million is roughly half the cost of the interchange project at Interstate 25 and Arapahoe Road, Greiman said. To oversee how the dollars are spent, the municipalities in Arapahoe County met to create an intergovernmental agreement, or an IGA, to establish a collaborative forum on transportation —
PUTTING HEADS TOGETHER A collaborative transportation forum in Arapahoe County that could include several cities and towns — like Aurora, Englewood, Littleton and Centennial — may be the new system that decides where federal transportation dollars go throughout the county. The group started meeting in October and is on a monthly meeting schedule, but the intent of the agreement is to meet on an as-needed basis, said Travis Greiman, public-works director for Centennial. that’s what Centennial City Council approved April 16. The cities and towns will have say in what the best use of the money is. And it’s important to have a seat at the table — the list of priorities in Arapahoe County is long, Greiman said. “It includes projects like a corridor study of Santa Fe (Drive) through Arapahoe County, Hampden/Broadway bridge replacement, I-25/Bel-
Centennial agreed to enter the partnership in April. Other votes on opting into the proposed IGA, which establishes that the forum will govern the funds, are scheduled for the member cities’ and towns’ elected officials throughout May and June, Greiman said. All the proposed projects are identified in Centennial’s 2013 Transportation Master Plan and its 2015 10-year plan for capital improvements, or infrastructure updates. leview interchange improvements (and) Parker/Quincy intersection improvements,” Greiman said. The two leading candidates within Centennial limits are County Line Road widening from University Boulevard to Broadway, and intersection improvements on Arapahoe Road from I-25 to South Parker Road, he added.

New site celebrates vista on High Line Canal Trail Sumac Hill Farm Overlook peers across horse pastures, Rockies BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
S
tanding at Sumac Hill Farm Overlook along the High Line Canal Trail in Centennial, you’d be forgiven for thinking you’ve been transported either back in time or far away. The overlook, just north of Goodson Recreation Center and deKoevend Park near South University Boulevard and East Arapahoe Road, gazes down on the rolling hills of the Smedley family’s horse farm. A coalition of local entities secured 10 of the farm’s 12 acres as a conservation easement in 2016, meaning they will stay undeveloped in perpetuity. The 600-square-foot platform at the overlook, which officially opened to the public on May 16, represents the culmination of the easement efforts, providing a place of rest for trail users to enjoy the vista. The easement and overlook came to fruition thanks to the efforts of South Suburban Parks and Recreation District, the City of Centennial, Arapahoe County Open Space, the South Metro Land Conservancy and the Trust for Public Lands. The total cost of the easement was $1.1 million. The easement and overlook secure a long-term amenity for trail users, said John Ostermiller, the chairman of the South Suburban Board of Directors. “These acres will forever be preserved, offering residents and visitors who jog, bike, stroll, and ride horses a forever opportunity to view wildlife and reconnect with nature along this beautiful

Sumac Hill Farm dates back to 1947, said Tom Smedley, the farm’s proprietor. “My father grew up in Denver and always wanted to live in the country,” Smedley said. “He served in World War II, and when he came back he bought this place for $200 an acre … My father had a dream that this would become open space and be preserved for everyone for generations to come.

“We’re all in the situation of managing growth,” said Stephanie Piko, mayor of Centennial, in September. Centennial plans to take the technological route and enhance its system of traffic cameras and sensors. Doing so will enable the city to time its traffic lights more accurately to traffic flows, Piko said. Police, fire officers and medical responders would also benefit from getting real-time updates about traffic and accidents.

But that alliance and the Arapahoe County forum are likely to be independent of each other, Greiman said. “The Smart Cities Alliance is focused on advancing technology,” Greiman said. We “don’t expect federal participation in the (alliance) at this moment, whereas the transportation forum is about programming federal transportation dollars within Arapahoe County.” For more information on DRCOG, go to drcog.org.

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
An armed man who barricaded himself in a home during a standoff with police that lasted more than 15 hours walked out of the house in the 4100 block of South Galapago Street in Englewood at about 1:30 a.m. May 17 and was arrested. He surrendered peacefully, police said in a news release. Englewood police and SWAT officers arrived on the scene the morning of May 16. Some homes in the area were evacuated as a precaution. Police described the man, Alexander Logan Benner, as 28 years old and suicidal. Benner was jailed on accusation
of failing to leave premises, prohibited use of a firearm and violating a protection order. To police spokesman Chad Read’s knowledge, officers did not try to enter the house. Benner fired an unknown number of rounds from a firearm inside the home, the news release said. The shots were not believed to be intended to hit officers. No one else
was in the home, and no injuries have been reported. Police received a call just before 8 a.m. May 16, followed by two or three more, from people who said they saw a Facebook post by the man that led them to believe he may be a threat of harm to himself, said Scot Allen, another spokesman for Englewood police. The man was not believed to be
Candidate amends finance report Green says understanding of campaign form led him to omit more than $2,500 in spending in initial filing BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
One of three candidates for the special election for Englewood City Council’s District 1 seat has filed an updated campaign-spending report that detailed more than $2,500 that his first report left out. Carson Green, a candidate to represent the north-northwestern district of Englewood, said he was following the rules for campaign finance as he understood them. “I’m completely for transparency and openness,” Green said May 12. “My understanding was that the form was specifically for what contributions covered, separate from what I paid for myself.” Green filed an initial spending report for the May 1 deadline, as the candidates must do under a state law called the Fair Campaign Practices Act. Green’s report detailed a total of $25 — for advertising through Facebook — in spending for his campaign through April 26. Election Day is May 22. Green filed an amended report dated May 10 that detailed a spending total of $2,592, including about $904 for yard signs, $536 for printing for mailers and $298 for postage for mailers. On Nextdoor, a social-media website for residents within a common area, a user posted on May 10 about Green’s initial spending report and reports for his opponents, Scott Danford and Othoniel Sierra. The post questioned who paid for Green’s mailers and yard signs, given that his first report did not
detail the expenditures. “Yes, I’ve had campaign signs that I personally paid for up since March 15,” Green said in an online response to the post the same day. “As you can see by the filings, I didn’t even form the candidate committee, which created my ability to take in contributions, until March 26.” Green said his understanding was that he needed to report expenditures that were covered by outside contributions of money from supporters. He said he didn’t think he needed to report money he spent on his own until later receiving contributions that made up for it, and he expected to report those contributions, if they came in, on his next report. Candidates are required to report their spending over three parts of the campaign. Another user on Nextdoor suggested he talk to the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office, which told Green he should report personal spending regardless of whether he takes in contributions that cover it, Green said. Registration for Green’s committee was filed on March 26, according to the registration form. Green spent money before and after March 26 that was not reported on his first finance report. That includes the expenditures of about $904 for yard signs March 8 and, on April 23, the $536 for printing mailers and $298 for postage. “The first filing has the Facebook advertising (cost) because it’s the only one paid for by the Vote Carson Green committee out of (its) bank account,” Green said. In both the first and updated report, the contributions he listed receiving were $100 for a deposit to open the bank account and about $5 in non-itemized contributions, which he said he used to test his donation system. Only contributions of $20 or more must be itemized. He paid for the advertising but not other costs, like for the yard signs,
through the campaigncommittee funds because that cost was less than the amount he had in the account, and he knew he wanted to spend the $100 somehow, Green said. Candidates can list themselves as making contributions to their own campaigns on the spending reports. Candidates can also use a form to report personal expenditures only, but Green said he expected to be taking in contributions, and he has had a contribution since April 26, after the reporting period for the initial filing. Green said he read the guidelines on campaign finance when he formed his committee, but he feels it’s unclear how spending should be reported. “I’m putting (my spending) on there for the sake of transparency,” said Green, who filed his amended report a few hours after the Nextdoor conversation. Residents responded with appreciation for his correction, Green said. District 1’s special election will choose an individual to serve the remainder of the term of the city-council seat vacated by former Mayor Joe Jefferson, which ends in November 2019. Jefferson stepped down Jan. 8 to take the municipal judge seat he won in the Nov. 7 election. Jefferson’s absence from the now six-member council created a deadlock among councilmembers in appointing a replacement for him. Green, Sierra and Danford were among the applicants the city council narrowed the choice down to before declaring the impasse that made the special election necessary. The winner of the election may break the 3-3 split on a council that has not yet chosen a councilmember to succeed Jefferson as mayor. The council can technically choose a mayor without a seventh member seated but has preferred to wait.
a threat to others, Allen said. Officers were in contact by phone with the barricaded man on and off and were trying to contact him in person, police said. In addition to Englewood officers, Greenwood Village police officers, Littleton police officers, Denver Fire Department firefighters and Denver Health medical personnel responded to the scene. West Oxford Avenue was closed from South Fox to South Huron streets, and Galapago Street was closed between Oxford and West Princeton avenues, were closed during the incident. Police recommended people avoid the area. All roads were opened and safe for travel as of about 9 a.m. May 17, a news release said. A neighbor said the home, south of Oxford Avenue on the west side of Galapago Street, was occupied by a young couple who had just moved in and who had rented a basement to a roommate.
Man accused of kidnapping, shooting at girlfriend Dylan Coons was taken into custody after car chase BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Englewood police arrested a man on suspicion of shooting twice at a woman as she tried to run away, catching up to her, forcing her into his car and attempting to flee the area, according to a news release. The victim, 27, told police that 26-year-old Dylan Coons fired a gun at her, but she wasn’t struck, and he then dragged her into a dark-colored Mercedes. Officers were dispatched to the area where the gunfire was reported, in the 3600 block of South Delaware Street, about 2 p.m. on May 16, and then located the car in the 4000 block of South Broadway. The driver left the area in the Mercedes ahead of the police and pulled into the backyard of a residence in the 3800 block of South Clarkson Street, then tried to drive away from that location but hit a parked vehicle. Coons, the driver, was taken into custody, and police recovered a pistol and rifle from the car. The woman and Coons have a domestic relationship, police said. Coons was jailed on suspicion of attempted first-degree murder, kidnapping and other charges. He was jailed on a no-bond hold. Further information was not available.

Session delivers bills on transportation, pension reform State lawmakers also tackled health care, affordable housing BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
In a work season buoyed up by unforeseen revenue, Colorado lawmakers passed a deal to put more money toward the state’s deep transportation needs, gave the green light to a last-minute compromise on its public-retirement system and made progress on curtailing the opioid epidemic. As conservative lawmakers note, the Legislature passed heavy spending lifts without a tax hike — enabled by favorable forecasts to the tune of a $1.3 billion increase in state revenue from last fiscal year. Strong economic growth and changes in federal tax policy set the state up to take in more revenue. But Democrats and Republicans still battled on how to split that pie, and compromises left both sides without their ideal path forward. Meanwhile, developments were less noteworthy on affordable housing, as prices continue a years-long spike. The regular session — the 120-day term when bills can be passed — ended May 9. Here’s a look at some of what was accomplished.
Wheels turn on transportation Colorado landed itself in a $9 billion hole as of 2016, according to state projections of transportation-spending needs through 2025, and lawmakers aimed to chip further away at that price tag. “Transportation was a — if not the — priority for Republicans this session,” said state House Minority Leader Patrick Neville, R-Castle Rock. Roads and bridges had been “neglected by the Democrats for 13 years,” he added. For the Democrats’ part, state House Speaker Crisanta Duran supported an unsuccessful bill last year to ask voters to raise sales and use taxes by 0.62 percentage points to raise about $375 million per year for the Colorado Department of Transportation, with other revenue going to counties and municipalities. Senate President Kevin Grantham, R-Cañon City, supported that bill along with Duran, D-Denver. This time around, lawmakers passed a $645 million boost over the next two years in a bill that would also ask voters in 2019 to approve about $2.3 billion in bond funding for transportation. That option would put Colorado on the hook for up to $3.25 billion in borrowing costs over 20 years. But before that, outside groups may

ask voters in 2018 to approve either another spending requirement without taxes, or allow a sales-tax increase. “The Legislature will have no choice, I think, but to spend more on transportation and spend less on other things” if the first option passed, said Chris Holbert, state Senate majority leader. Holbert, R-Parker, was skeptical of the tax increase passing, “given the voter reaction to prior tax increases.” Senate Bill 18-001, the deal lawmakers passed, headed to the governor’s desk May 17. Small steps on housing Housing affordability, on the other hand, didn’t see a grand bargain that would move the needle much. “There was more lip service than anything else,” said Eric Sondermann, a Colorado independent political analyst. Democrats unsuccessfully tried to pass a tax on shopping bags to fund affordable-housing assistance, while Republicans focus on what they say are regulations that make construction unaffordable. “House Republicans are optimistic that the construction-litigation reform law passed in 2017 will spur more affordable home construction, but we need to give the market time to adjust before enacting more legislation,” said Cole Wist, state House assistant minority leader, R-Centennial. Lawmakers passed a bill that
extends the state’s ability to allocate affordable-housing tax credits through b o the year 2024. It would have expired fi at the end of 2019, according to the Legislature’s website. It was a welcome move, but Colora- b a dans need more support, state Rep. t Faith Winter said. s “I’m excited that we were able to (extend) affordable-hous- a ing tax credits so that more affordable-housing e projects can get off the a s ground,” said Winter, D-Westminster. “However,h E the response from the Legislature was woefully p inadequate in addressing c Winter the affordable-housing l crisis in Colorado.” The Legislature passed what state o t Rep. Chris Kennedy called a “rents ers’ rights bill” that would require landlords to provide a copy of a lease d to each tenant, as well as receipts for cash rent payments, he said. Senate Bill 18-007, the bill that extended tax credits, headed to the governor’s desk May 11.
PERA gets fix Senate Republicans passed in March what they called “sweeping new changes” to the state’s public-employee pension fund, which lawmakers say is at least $30 billion underfunded. The SEE SESSION, P9

Tate said. It adjusts the program to keep it on track to pay off its unfunded debt within 30 years, putting $225 million annually toward paying down that debt. A bill that drew ire from the state teachers’ union, it eliminates costof-living raises for two years, and afterward, annual raises will continue at 1.5 percent, cut from the current 2 percent. That rate could automatically adjust to help keep the system financially in check, said state Sen. Kevin Priola, a Republican who represents the south part of Thornton. The bill has a “ratchet effect” built in so that employer and employee contributions increase automatically if challenging conditions — increased life expectancy, financial-market issues or others — occur, to “keep things from spinning out of control,” according to Sondermann. “The bill was certainly half a loaf, but I don’t think anyone really expected more than half a loaf,” said Sondermann, who co-heads a group

bill eventually passed both chambers of the Legislature on the session’s final day. The program manages about $44 billion for more than 560,000 current and former public employees — teachers, police, and other local- and state-government employees — or about 1 in 10 Coloradans. Doing nothing would have threatened the state’s credit rating and put all beneficiaries at long-term risk, state Sen. Jack Tate, R-Centennial, has said in the past. The Public Employees’ Retirement Association program, or PERA, has been an increasingly dire issue for years. Senate Bill 18-200, “which was my legislation, accomplished this task of ‘stopping digging the hole while trying to fill it’ with an approach of shared sacrifice, solid financial fundamentals and better governance,”
called Secure Futures Colorado, which has pushed for reform of the program. The deal was painful, but passing it was the right thing to do, Kennedy said. “Retirees in 30 years are going to feel the benefit because their pensions will be there for them,” Kennedy said. “In the shorter term, employees are going to notice a dent in their paychecks, and retirees are going to see smaller cost-of-living adjustments, unfortunately.” Opioids, health costs Before the session began, lawmakers put together six bills to address opioid abuse, including to allow for supervised-injection facilities — where people with substance-use disorders could safely inject and be referred to treatment — and to expand access to residential, or live-in, substance-abuse treatment. Lawmakers rejected the injectionfacility bill, but a bill to limit the amount of opioids that can be ini-
tially prescribed passed, Priola said. “I did run an (electronic) prescribe bill that didn’t make it,” which “would have helped reduce doctorshopping and forged prescriptions,” Priola said. A bill to add inpatient and residential substance-use treatment as a Medicaid benefit — House Bill 18-1136 — passed May 7. “These measures are the direct result of the hard work by (state) Rep. Brittany Pettersen,” said Winter, referring to the Lakewood Democrat who has pushed to address the opioid crisis and widely talked about her mother’s struggle with a substanceuse disorder. Also passed was a measure to implement more education to medical providers about prescribing opioid drugs. Pettersen said the package of bills passed has “put Colorado on the map as a national leader.” “This is the most important work

It felt like family at Colorado’s Finest High School of Choice, where a few dozen students heard teachers recount their stories as they crossed the finish line of their high-school careers. “Three graduates will leave a hole in my heart,” said teacher Ginger Rode, introducing students who built relationships with her in their years at Finest. A language-arts teacher told the crowd how one student “was the rock of our family.” A large number of students transferred to the school from other metro-area high schools, and they stood alongside the podium one by one as the audience listened to their stories May 12 on graduation day. One, from a STRIVE Prep school, plans to attend Community College of Denver for welding. One was a graduate of the cosmetology program at Finest.

Life may not be predictable, but graduation speeches are QUIET DESPERATION
Craig Marshall Smith
T
he invitations have gone out, and once again I didn’t receive one. I wasn’t asked by a single high school, college, or university in the United States to give their commencement speech, even though I promised not to use the words “doom” and “apocalypse.” I have a doozy too. I’ve been told you have to start with a joke. I have one about Ted Nugent. “What’s the difference between Ted Nugent and a laundry bag full of frozen underwear?” I figure I haven’t been invited because I am a no-name who can’t be trusted. One school told me they were worried I might tell students the truth. I am not losing sleep because I haven’t been invited. I’m not a big believer in ceremonies in the first place, but The People seem to love them. And if no one in your family has earned a high school or college degree before, it’s undoubtedly very meaningful.
My elementary school in Fullerton, California, had a ceremony for those of us who had mastered sixth grade. I remember sitting there with a frown on my face. Graduation ceremonies in films are often depicted with derision. The speaker is boring and the students are disinterested. Speakers often try too hard to say something profound. “Nothing in life is guaranteed. You have to earn it.” That kind of thing. Some speakers sermonize. “You are all sinners in the hands of an angry God.” That kind of thing. I would walk out. After the Nugent joke, I would read a few quotes: Lewis Carroll, Dorothy Parker, Groucho Marx. I would do a loud and obnoxious promotion for Flex-Seal, just like the ones on television. And I would close with some young women singing “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?” — a cappella. There wouldn’t be a dry eye in
the joint. All seriousness aside, I have a small request. If you or your kid is graduating, don’t send an announcement to an edge-acquaintance who hasn’t heard from you in four years. It’s an insult. It just might look like you are beggaring a gift. I’m not sure why we give gifts to the students anyhow. Instead of their teachers. The word “commencement” means “to begin,” not “to conclude.” Although for some, it is the end of the line. High school and college years are lovely contrivances, not the Real World. I didn’t want to leave my alma mater. It was paradise. The campus itself is an island of accomplished educators, bright, international students, and exquisite architecture and landscaping.

always the way it was for me. And unfortunately, that is not the way it is for many of us in this world, too many of us. Instead of having people in our lives who give us hope and encouragement, we sometimes have people who want to tear us down and discourage us. And the problem is that sometimes they don’t even know they are doing it. They only do it because that was the way they were treated, that was the way they were spoken to, that was the way they grew up. These are the people who were told that life is tough and anyone who tells you differently is lying. So instead of becoming encouragers themselves, they fell into the trap of becoming a discourager. We need to break that cycle. What we need is the courage to become an encourager and break the cycle of negativity and pessimism in the world. Can you imagine living in a

Can you imagine living in a family where hopes and dreams are the topics of conversations instead of yells and screams? Why don’t we or why can’t we shift gears from the negative to the positive? It’s because we lack the courage to act differently, say things differently, and hope things differently with those we love, who we live with, work with, and worship with. And I can tell you this, someone you know right now, right this very minute, can use a dose of hope and encouragement. And what they really need is for you to have the courage to do it and to be the one to lift them up. I have the honor and privilege to call Dr. Denis Waitley a coach, a mentor, and above all, a friend. Twenty years ago, Denis told me that I was the most proactive person he had ever met in his life.

Helps Cultivate Gratitude — While walking along there will be moments when you feel extreme gratitude.

As the popular saying goes, “develop an attitude of

Increased Self-Awareness — The time between shots allows you to reflect on your previous swing and learn from it. What was good? Was your mental attitude positive or negative? By developing a habit of mindfulness you can check in on the status of your current thoughts. This awareness allows you to more readily develop new positive habits and begin creating positive changes in your life.

Butterfly Pavilion looks at survival tricks

Remember the
fallen
Events offer a chance to honor sacrifice BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
M
emorial Day is just one day a year, and as Louetta Smith, director of the annual Denver Memorial Day Tribute event, sees it, it’s not too much to ask to take a few minutes during the day to remember those who have served the country. “Like a lot of people, for a long time I never really thought of Memorial Day like I should,” she remembered. “But I started getting involved in the
tribute, and that reminded me of the importance of gratitude for those who gave their lives for all of us.” There’s a lot going on during Memorial Day weekend, as it has long served as the unofficial opening weekend of summer. People looking to spend time outside are spoiled for choice, and even while doing something like participating in a beer run, a community picnic, or even a huge Nerf battle, events like the tribute remind people what the day is all about. The first Denver Memorial Day Tribute event was held on Memorial Day 2000 by Deb Ellis, following the death off her World War II vet father. The event started out with more of a fair atmosphere, but 9/11 and the ensuing war on terror changed the vibe of the tribute. It became an event about the Gold Star families. “I had attended the City and County of Denver’s Memorial Day Parade and I remember at the time being amazed that the parade was so poorly attended. The country seemed so complacent about military sacrifice — past or present,” Ellis said. “This year, there are more than 40 families that will attend the Tribute, and they
come from all over Colorado.” The Tribute is now held indoors at the POF Hall, 1340 Sherman St. in Denver, just south of the Capitol, and will go from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, May 26. The event will feature musical tributes from the U.S. Navy Band Northwest Brass Quintet, soloist Rosemary White, violist Valerie Reives and more. Then, there will be a seven-wreath remembrance ceremony honoring veterans and the fallen from all wars and presentations to the Gold Star families who have lost a loved one since the war on terror, complete with names, biographical information and a Navy bell tolling. The ceremony is free and open to the public. Those looking to show appreciation in a quieter way can volunteer at Fort Logan National Cemetery, 4400 W. Kenyon Ave., to help lay flowers at the graves. The flower laying begins at 10 a.m. on Memorial Day, May 28. “It feels like Memorial Day has lost a lot of its meaning for many people,” Smith said. “It helps to remember what this day is for amidst everything that is happening over the weekend.”

hen most people come across creatures like a spider or a centipede, they probably don’t pause to appreciate the tools that enabled these animals to survive for millions of years. But spend a little time at the Butterfly Pavilion’s new survival exhibit, and one will be able to learn all about the adaptability of these surprising animals. The Butterfly Pavilion, COMING 6252 W. 104th Ave. in ATTRACTIONS Westminster, unveiled its new “Survival” exhibit in March, and it will be on display for about a year. “These animals have developed some amazing survival methods over countless years,” said pavilion entomologist MaClarke Reader rio Padilla. “Instead of being stuck in a box, we want to give visitors a chance to see how our animals move, feed and interact with their environment.” The exhibit provides an intimate look at how a variety of invertebrates have developed survival skills in a variety of areas, focusing on moving, hiding, feeding and fighting, all in pursuit of a simple goal — staying alive. The interactive exhibit shows how creatures like bees, beetles, spiders and more use camouflage, venom and other skills to eat, evade predators and attract mates. Visitors will get to use a dragonfly launch pad, fight in a simulated beetle battle, and get hands-on with Rosie the Tarantula. “We think it’s really important to provide those hands-on experiences to visitors,” Padilla explained. “We work to ensure there’s a touch component to all of our exhibits.” As is the case with everything the Butterfly Pavilion does, the hope is that visitors will come away with a greater appreciation for animals that so many people are afraid of or don’t understand. “It’s taken millions of years for these animals to become what we recognize now,” Padilla said. “Not only do we hope our visitors appreciate these insects, but they also will want to do what they can to protect them.” For tickets and additional information visit www.Butterflies.org/Survival.

Sculptor Mike Whiting brings his memories of vintage 1980s video games (Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, etc.) into another realm as a visitor finds his oversized images amidst the flowers, trees and shrubs that ordinarily inhabit the lush, green Denver Botanic Gardens/York Street grounds in the “Pixelated” sculpture exhibit. Gardens CEO Brian Vogt, a Littleton native, spoke before a press tour: “The relationship between human life and the natural world dates back 5,000 years … the power of nature, Mike’s video games … The games manipulate that world.” Whiting said: “I had to fill in the blanks! ... Really, the whole world is pixelated.” The sculptor arrived to lead a tour appropriately attired in a floral-printed shirt. At the entrance to DBG, one meets “Ghost and Castle,” (2016) two pieces created with paint and steel, as are all 11 of Whiting’s sculptures tucked into the Gardens. “They are a visual palindrome,” he remarked as he started walking through his works, “the opposite of each other,” related to the game Castles. “When developing ideas, I draw in Microsoft Paint,” Whiting said. “Then I go to a 3-D modeling program. The pieces are all welded from the inside, as well, and the finish is automotive paint for those under 1,000 pounds … I beat them up with sanders,” he

Mike Whiting’s Sculptures “Pinkie” and “Mr. Green” (steel and paint) are in the City of Denver collection, loaned to the “Pixelated” exhibit at Denver Botanic Gardens. Whiting said these early works are particular favorites. PHOTOS BY SCOTT DRESSEL-MARTIN added, wanting some rust to be part of the design. “Bird” (2012), a very large avian image in robin’s egg blue, was commissioned for a bird-watching spot, he said, and the smaller, orange “Birdie” is exhibited at Brigham Young University (his school). “Buck” (2007) is tucked into a grove of trees, the sort of setting you’d imagine finding a deer, munching on plants and grass. Loaned by the Brigham Young University Museum of Art, it is scratched and “feels like an old pickup truck,” Whiting observed. Asked if the scratches bothered him, he talked about “natural, but not nice …,” adding that “once sold, it’s not mine anymore.” A New York gallery owner bought one with graffiti, he recalled — “that’s part

of the history… “I grew up in the West, around lots of old cars …,” he said. Along a path, reflected in the pond, one finds “Pinkie” and “Mr. Green” (2007), a pair of smaller sculptures,
loaned by the City and County of Denver. They are old and scuffed — and two of Whiting’s favorites. “Mr. Green” is after Whiting’s father-in-law. Whiting usually works on three or four sculptures at a time in his studio. “The
“Pixelated” will be at the Denver Botanic Gardens, 1007 York St. in Denver, through Sept. 23 and can be viewed during garden hours.

smaller pieces are harder to fabricate,” he added, “a challenge to weld from the inside.” The larger “Wave” (2018) was especially made for this exhibit and he was especially pleased with the siting of “Cactus” in the Rock Garden — “one of the most beautifully situated in the exhibit.” It’s modeled after one he saw in a cactus house. Grasses connect with it visually and he was really thinking of a Tupperware color for “Wave,” as he created a page of drawings. “It was really hard to weld inside,’ he recalls. Other pieces include the older, lavender “Pigeon,” a “Sailboat,” “Cathead” and “Garden Gnome” — of course! Children will enjoy taking the photo guide that comes with a ticket and seeking each piece across the grounds — as will adults, actually …

summer, which means concert goers are spoiled for choice when it comes to their evening plans. This week alone, you couldn’t go wrong with James Taylor at Fiddler’s Green on May 27, The Wonder Years with Tigers Jaw and Tiny Moving Parts at the Ogden on May 30, or Gang of Youths at the Globe Hall on the same day. But for my money, the best way to kick off the summer concert season is with one of pop’s reigning queens — Taylor Swift, who will be stopping by Sports Authority Field At Mile High, 1701 Bryant St., at 7 p.m. on Friday, May 25. As if it wasn’t enough to have Swift, is who is undeniably a pop master of the highest order, she is bringing along Charli XCX and Camila Cabello.

The Mile High City plays Van the Man For me, Van Morrison is at the very top of the rock troubadour pile, secondly only to Bob Dylan. If his take on Irish folk wasn’t beautiful enough, his addition of jazz and soul sounds into everything he does adds a whole new layer of depth to his sound. Unfortunately, he’s getting up there in years, and hasn’t really toured in a decade or more. And when he does, it costs an arm and a leg to score a ticket. Thankfully, the Hi-Dive at 7 S.

Tribute, ceremonies among Memorial Day events Fort Logan, Englewood, Littleton will be sites of solemn rites BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@OURCOLORADONEWS.COM
Memorial Day will be observed with a tribute to fallen veterans at Fisher Auditorium on the Englewood High School campus on May 27 and with ceremonies May 28 in Littleton and Fort Logan National Cemetery to honor their service and the sacrifices of all members of the military, past and present. The tradition that established the Memorial Day events stated that they were for the “honor of all veterans laid to rest in this sacred national cemetery, to all the prisoners of war and those missing in action who never returned, to all who have served and those who, even now, guards the gates of freedom worldwide.” This is the fourth year for the Veterans’ Tribute in Englewood organized by Kay Howard. Howard headed the project that placed a veterans’ memorial at Englewood High School as well as the tribute. The tribute will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. May 27 in Fisher Auditorium located on the Englewood High School campus, 3800 S. Logan St. The guest speaker at the event is retired Air Force Col.

Also during the event, the Gold Star family of Army Staff Sgt. Christopher Falkel will be presented a traditionally folded flag by members of the Honor Bell team. Falkel, who lived in Highlands Ranch, was serving as a member of the 3rd Special Forces when he suffered fatal injuries in combat Aug. 8, 2005 in Afghanistan. Gold Star families are families of members of the military services killed in action. On May 28, the first ceremony of the day starts at 8 a.m. in the Veterans’ Circle located in the Littleton Cemetery at 6155 S. Prince St. A second, mirror-image service will be held at 10 a.m. at the Littleton World War II Memorial in Ketring Park, 6000 S. Gallup St.

Both ceremonies in Littleton, sponsored by the Pat Hannon Post Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4666 and the George C. Evans American Legion Post 103, follow the same program with the El Jebel Pipe Band will playing “Amazing Grace” and the All Veterans Honor Guard firing the traditional 21-gun salute. The ceremonies will include reading of the poem “In Flanders Field” and the poem, “My Plea.” The poem “My Plea” was written by Marine Lance Cpl. Patrick Hannon, the first Littleton resident to die in the Vietnam War. At 11 a.m., Fort Logan National Cemetery will hold the annual Memorial Day observance that is sponsored by the Associated Veterans of Colorado. Featured speaker this year is Command Sgt. Maj. Bill Woods, command sergeant major of the Colorado
National Guard. Colorado Congressman Mike Coffman and Colorado Lt. Gov. Donna Lynn plan to attend and could speak. A group representing the Veterans of Foreign Wars Ladies Auxiliary, the American Legion Auxiliary, the Retired Enlisted Association Auxiliary and the Gold Star Wives will place a ceremonial wreath at a symbolic grave marker, the honor guard will raise their rifles, fire the 21-gun salute and the bugle will play “Taps,” sending the echo across the rows and rows of gleaming white markers standing in arrow-straight rows. In case the weather is bad, the services will be held at Verle Huffman VFW Post 9644 at 2680 W. Hampden Ave. in Sheridan. After the Fort Logan ceremonies, VFW Post 9644 and its Ladies Auxiliary will host a luncheon at the facility that is two blocks east of Federal on Hampden Avenue. Preparations for the ceremonies at Fort Logan begin May 29 when volunteers, most of them young people from a variety of scouting organizations, place a small American flag adjacent to each of the more than 54,000 headstones at the national cemetery, and the same day, flags will be placed on the graves of veterans buried at Littleton Cemetery. The first official Memorial Day celebration was held when Civil War Union General John Alexander Logan, who is the individual Fort Logan is named for, was commander of the Union veterans group the Grand Army of the Republic, and issued an order that asked all members to decorate the graves of American veterans on May 30, 1868 to honor those who died serving their country. After World War I, Decoration Day became an official holiday and later, the name was changed to Memorial Day. In 1971, Congress passed the holiday act that, among other things, made Memorial Day the last Monday in May.

Man turns self in after sexual-assault investigation
RECALL FROM PAGE 1
HOW A RECALL WORKS According to the Englewood Home Rule Charter, one or more registered voters eligible to vote for a certain office can request a petition that would trigger an election to recall the elected official who currently holds that office, if the official has held the position for six months or more. The petition must be signed by registered voters eligible to vote for the office in question, and the number of signatures must equal at least 25 percent of the voters who voted in the last general election for that office. Nearly 1,500 voted for the District 3 position in 2015, so a successful petition would need 366 signatures in the district. District 3 includes roughly the southeast and middle parts of Englewood. The petition with signatures must be filed within 60 days after the clerk authorizes it. If successful, the city council generally must set a date for a recall election to be held between 60 and 120 days after the petition is filed. In that election, if the majority votes to recall the official, the office is declared vacant, and city council generally must schedule another election between 60 and 120 days after the recall election to choose a new councilmember.

Since early January, the council has operated without a District 1 representative after former Mayor Joe Jefferson stepped down to take the position of municipal judge. That left the council in a 3-3 split on whom to appoint to fill his vacancy, and the body has run with six members since then. The impasse, at the time, highlighted ideological differences among the councilmembers. That gridlock triggered a special election for May 22 to select the next District 1 councilmember, who will likely be sworn into office in early June.

City Council, preventing Council from acting in Englewood’s best interest,” the group wrote in an affidavit received by the city April 17. The petition, as allowed by city law, includes a statement of defense from Barrentine, which criticized the use of the recall process. “It is a shame four people refuse to participate in the normal election cycle,” Barrentine wrote. She said voting against the city’s budget was her job “as your elected representative, to ensure the city is spending your money wisely.” The petitioners list her “repeated refusal” to approve city budgets as an example of conduct they said “increases governmental dysfunction.” Barrentine said May 16 that city council is getting along well, and she was not worried about the recall. “I have a lot of support from people that it doesn’t go to a recall,” Barrentine said. “The job that I’ve done speaks for itself.” The grievances are vague, said Barrentine, adding she’s “offended” by the idea that staff needs to be protected from council. “It’s just sad, all of this trying to stir the pot” she said. I “think they’re disappointed that council is getting along so well.” Woodward, the former mayor who served from 2007-11, said he’s seen “fairly positive” responses so far from people he and other petitioners have talked to about the recall. Woodward has walked a few blocks in District 3, knocking on doors. “The people I’ve been involved with, it’s probably been 90 percent that have supported it and signed,” said Woodward, adding that he’s confident the petition will reach the necessary number of signatures to succeed.

A former volunteer youth helper from a Denver metro-area church turned himself in on suspicion of several crimes, including sexual assault on a child by a person in a position of trust, according to a news release by Englewood police. Joseph Potts, 31, formerly of Jubilee Fellowship Church, turned himself in to the Arapahoe County jail May 17 after the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office issued an arrest warrant the same day. The Englewood Police Department began an investigation Jan. 18 that led to

Potts’ arrest. Potts, who formerly lived in the 700 block of East Jefferson Avenue in Englewood, according to the release, is suspected of crimes in 2017 regarding two boys who were 14 and 15 at the time of the reported actions. The incidents occurred in Englewood and not at Jubilee Fellowship Church, said Chad Read, spokesman for Englewood police. That church has several locations in the southmetro area and in Lakewood, according to its website. Potts faces charges of sexual assault on a child by a person in position of trust, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, enticement of a child, obscenity to a minor and indecent exposure. Potts is being held without bond, the release said. He was aware of the warrant before turning himself in, Read said. The case has been turned over to the district attorney’s office.

“It seems like people aren’t as interested as getting together as a community anymore,” said Jolene Rheault, public relations director with Community Builders. “We want people to be proud of their community and know that everyone can get together to have a good time for something like Memorial Day.” Attendees are invited to bring a picnic or sample some of the wares at one of the largest gathering of food trucks in Highlands Ranch. There will also be a beer and wine garden featuring selections from local breweries and wineries and live acoustic music. There will also be traditional field day and carnival games, as well as a kickball and golf chipping contest that can be entered for cash prizes as well as prizes from local businesses. “We’d like this to become an annual event we do for the community every summer,” Rheault added. “It was partly inspired by the field day that kids have at school, and we want to keep providing this kind of free

High school drag races keep things moving Young people will compete for merchandise in event at Bandimere on May 28 BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@OURCOLORADONEWS.COM
High school students are encouraged to “push the pedal to the metal” as they push their vehicles to the limits during the competition at the May 28 All American High School Drag Races at Bandimere Speedway in Morrison. Again this year, there will be races for high school drivers, a special alumni classification for drivers 19 to 23 and junior dragster race with 5- to 17-year-olds behind the wheels of vehicles with bodies designed to be half the size and shape of the National Hot Rod Association’s top-fuel dragsters. The gates open for entries at 8 a.m. Junior dragster races begin at 9 a.m. and high school drag races begin about 10 a.m. The cost to enter the races is $35. Rules require the car be equipped with seat belts and the car must pass a technical inspection where the vehicle is checked to ensure the seat belts are securely fastened to the frame, the brakes are good and there is plenty of tread on the tires. The individual behind the wheel
The junior dragsters line up in the staging lanes awaiting their turn at the starting line at a recent year’s event. The junior dragsters will be part of the annual high school drag races May 28 at Bandimere Speedway. FILE PHOTO must have a valid driver’s license. The driver of any vehicle that makes runs down the quarter-mile strip faster than 14 seconds is required to wear a helmet. The majority of students are from the metro area, but each year, there
are drivers from other portions of the state as well as a handful of entries from neighboring states. The event always draws a crowd on the track and in the stands. Last year, for example, about 250 drivers representing about 50 different schools took
part in the drag racing competition. They were joined at the races by about 100 young men and women behind the wheels of junior dragsters. The annual event is very popular and kids show up to race with all kinds of “wheels,” ranging from a hot rod that they drive in weekly races at the track to the family’s station wagon or sport utility vehicle. So, to make the competition as fair as possible, entries are divided into two classes, one for the cars, trucks and motorcycles the kids drive on the street and a different division for the drivers who will be behind the wheel of vehicles built to compete in drag races. Also, a handicap system called a dial-in is necessary because the field includes such a wide variety of vehicles. The dial-in time is set in time trials and the handicap system allows the slower vehicle in the head-to-head drag race to leave the starting line first. But, running faster than the “dial-in time” is called breaking out and could cost a driver the race. Winning means moving on to the next round. Losing means it’s time to go home. Drivers get merchandise prizes each time they advance. There a multitude of prizes given out during the competition and the elimination races continue until a single driver captures the day’s championships.

Heritage pitcher Riley Egloff delivers a fastball against Mountain Range during a Class 5A playoff game at Metro State University’s Regency Field on May 21. Egloff pitched a three-hit shutout, with 10 strikeouts, as the Eagles cruised past the Mustangs, 7-0. STEFAN BRODSKY
Swimmers post strong showings at state STAFF REPORT
Cherry Creek was third at the Class 5A state swimming championship to lead all teams from the south metro area. The Bruins finished with 208.50 points, which was 82 points shy of state champion Regis Jesuit. Fossil Ridge was second in the team standings during the meet, which was held May 18-19 at the Veterans Memorial Aquatic Center in Thornton. Arapahoe was the fourth-place team, Highlands Ranch fifth and Ponderosa seventh. At the Class 4A championships at the Air Force Academy, Valor Christian was the top area team with a sixth-place finish. Junior Brendan Eckerman paced Cherry Creek with a second-place finish in the 100 freestyle with a time of 46.61 and placed fourth in the 200 IM in 1:52.57. Eckerman’s finish along, with Ponderosa’s Blake Wilton second place in the 100 butterfly, were the highest individual finishes in 5A for area swimmers. Freshman Clayton Chaplin of Highlands Ranch was third in the diving competition as he totaled
Ponderosa junior Blake Wilton, one of the state’s top swimmers, swims in a 200-yard freestyle preliminary heat at the CHSAA 5A Boys Championships, Friday, May 18, at the Veterans Memorial Aquatic Center in Thornton. STEFAN BRODSKY 539.45 points while Arapahoe’s Caleb Ives came in sixth. Wilton, a junior, was second in the 100 butterfly with a time of 48.95 to edge Ty Coen of Regis for the runnerup spot. Wilton was seventh in the 200 freestyle. The Arapahoe 200 medley relay
team of Collin Hayes, Jack Berdahl, Josher Rowe and Ben Brewer was second with a time of 1:33.74. Gavin Rogers was sixth in the 100 butterfly and the 500 freestyle to pace Valor Christian in the 4A state meet. Caleb Kim was seventh in the 50 freestyle.
rew Van Maanen knew he was facing long odds heading into the three-day rookie camp of the National Football League Houston Texans in early May. First of all, the former Chaparral football standout was an undrafted free agent out of Wyoming. And second, he is a fullback which is a disappearing position these days in the National Football League. But he is a long snapper and hoped his OVERTIME versatility might be attractive to the Texans or some other NFL team. “Unfortunately, I didn’t get invited back,” said Van Maanen. “I really enjoyed my time down there. I was Jim Benton in an NFL locker room. I’m going to stay in shape and my agent will try to make something work out somewhere else. So it’s a waiting game right now.” With spread offenses, many high school and college teams don’t regularly use fullbacks and many NFL teams have virtually eliminated the position. However, some teams still have prominent fullbacks, and flexibility is important. Fullbacks play on special teams, block, carry the ball in short yardage situations and sometimes are secondary receiving targets. Van Maanen was a four-year fullback at Wyoming and a backup long snapper until an injury forced him to snap full-time on special teams during his 2017 senior season. He caught 14 passes for 170 yards in four years, ran the ball twice for five yards and was the team captain his senior season. “Fullback is not a glorified position in the NFL,” said Van Mannen. “It’s not used a whole lot. So I knew going in it was going to be a tough task. But long snapping is something even moving forward that I can bring to the table. I knew it was going to be a long road, but if you love the game, you give everything to try to make the team. “I worked on snaps every day in practice at Wyoming. Anytime I can get on the field, I like that opportunity, no matter if is special teams, long snapping or fullback.” SEE BENTON, P25

Schultz, Sloan honored Wrestler Cohl Schultz of Ponderosa and hurdler Emily Sloan of Rock Canyon were two of the athletes honored on the Xfinity Sports Award show which used online voting, a media panel and advisory committee to make the myriad selections. Schultz was the chosen for the Most Outstanding Performance for a Male Athlete. The junior heavyweight won his third straight state wrestling title and completed an undefeated 50-0 season. Before the high school season started Schulz became the first American Cadet Greco-Roman wrestler to win a world championship since 1997 when he won the gold medal in the tournament in Greece.
awards podium as part of the Bruins’ state champion 4x100 relay team. Dimitri Stanley, Andrew Wilsonaxpe, Kyle Hanlan and Miller locked down the state title with a time of 42.46 on a rainy, cold final day of the three-day meet. “We ran pretty well on a cold day,” said Miller. “You have to warm up
longer before the race, but it’s state. You just have to go out and compete. Everybody is running in the same weather. The competition was good.” The Creek boys finished second in the team standings with 71 points. The Bruins girls team was sixth. Delaney Smith of Cherry Creek, the defending 300-meter hurdles
champion, was third and she finished fourth in the 100 hurdles. Littleton senior Brittany Line earned all the team points for the Lions with a fourth-place finish in the 4A shot put with a 38-05.00 effort. Arapahoe’s Faythe Sheffield was seventh in the 5A shot put competition with a throw of 36-09.50.
Sloan was selected as the girls Athlete of the Year. The senior, who will continue her track career at Oregon, is the threetime 5A champion in the 100-meter hurdles heading into this season’s state meet. She won the 2016 state 300 hurdles title and set a Colorado all-time record at the Continental League championships with a 40.77 clocking to break the old mark of 41.18. Her 40.77 is the second fastest in the country.
3A state tennis tournaments to two days because of stormy weather that was forecast for May 12. The CHSAA delayed the start of the double elimination 3A, 4A and 5A state baseball tournaments to avoid the rain that was forecast for May 18 and 19. Each of the first two days of the baseball tournaments were pushed back to May 21 and 22. The second weekend of the tournaments will now be played May 26 and 27. The National Weather Service predicted a 50 percent chance of rain for May 18 and a 60 percent chance for May 19. However, the state track meet still was held May 17-19 at Jeffco Stadium. CHSAA commissioner Jean Roberts-Uhlig told CHSAANow.com that the events on the track and some field events were able to be held despite rain. CHSAA had contingencies for some field events.
Lighting, however, would force delays and interrupt the meet. CHSAA assistant commissioner Bert Borgmann pointed out the baseball tournament schedule was altered to ensure all games could be completed on the same day. “To have one team or two teams play a game on Friday and use up a pitcher and have others not have to use a pitcher until Monday undermines pitch counts and interferes with the competitive integrity of the tournament,” Borgmann told CHSAANow.com. If fields were not playable on May 21 and 22, games would move to May 25 and 26 with the semifinals and finals set for June 1 and June 2.
Meteorologist needed Seems like the Colorado High School Activities Association should think about hiring a meteorologist at least part-time during the unpredictable spring months. Then the CHSAA wouldn’t have to monitor online sites of the National Weather Service, Weather Bug and Weather.com. The CHSAA condensed the 5A and

Education, lifestyle can help prevent strokes STAFF REPORT
Strokes strike more than 7 million adults in the United States each year. This month, the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association encourage Colorado residents to work to end the fifth-leading cause of death in this country. American Stroke Month is intended to highlight one of the leading causes of serious, long-term disability that is largely preventable and treatable. Normal blood pressure is below 120/80 mm Hg. Nearly half of adults in the United States have high blood pressure, according to recent AHA/ ASA Hypertension Guidelines, which redefines high blood pressure as 130/88 mm Hg. Eating healthfully, being active and, for some stroke survivors, following an aspirin regimen can help prevent another stroke, according to a news release from the American Stroke Association. Education is also key when it comes to treating stroke. The American Stroke Association’s Together to End Stroke initiative, sponsored nationally by Medtronic, teaches the acronym F.A.S.T. to help people to recognize the most common
stroke warning signs and what to do if one occurs: F — Face Drooping. Does one side of the face droop or is it numb? Ask the person to smile. A — Arm Weakness. Is one arm weak or numb? Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward? S — Speech Difficulty. Is speech slurred, are they unable to speak, or are they hard to understand? Ask the person to repeat a simple sentence like, “The sky is blue.” Is the sentence repeated correctly? T — Time to call 911. If the person shows any of these symptoms, even if the symptoms go away, call 911 and get them to the hospital immediately. Immediate medical care is crucial to access life-saving treatment in many cases. About 795,000 people in the U.S. have a stroke every year, with about three in four being first-time strokes. Someone in the United States has a stroke every 40 seconds. Every four minutes, someone dies of stroke. For more information about stroke or American Stroke Month, follow #StrokeMonth on social media or visit StrokeAssociation.org/strokemonth.
