Four retail marijuana issues on ballot Voters also will decide whether to OK bond for police station By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com The fate of recreational marijuana sales rests in the hands of Englewood voters after the city council’s Sept. 6 approval of four retail marijuana-related questions on the November ballot. The council also placed a fifth ques-

tion on the ballot, which will ask voters whether the city can sell $27 million in general obligation bonds to build a new police station. The decision to put the bond issue on the ballot came after the determination that the aging police station was overcrowded, had poor ventilation and has water leaks. Making repairs was compared to putting a Band-Aid on a large wound. The question asks voters to OK the bond sale, which in turn will mean an increase in property taxes to repay the

bonds. During the discussion about the four marijuana-related ballot issues, it was noted that voters will face the challenge of sorting through two sets of competing questions. One set of competing questions asks voters to decide whether or not the retail sale of marijuana in Englewood should be permitted. The second set of competing questions concerns how the city would tax the sales of marijuana if voters approve retail sales

in Englewood. Acting City Attorney Dugan Comer was asked how the issue would be decided if both sides of a question passed. “The voters will decide the issues,” he said. “However, if two competing issues like allowing and prohibiting the sale of retail marijuana in Englewood both pass, then the ballot question that received the most votes becomes law. The same is true of the two questions concerning how marijuana sales will be taxed.” Marijuana continues on Page 16

I think today finally used up all her energy so she will sleep well tonight.” Kate Dyson had her dog, Ruby, at the plunge. Ruby chased her in and out of the water in the children’s pool area. “I am a Freedom Service Dogs volunteer and that was where I met Ruby,” the Lakewood resident said. “Ruby wasn’t

Eight residents spoke to the Englewood City Council Sept. 6 and expressed their continuing concerns about potential health hazards from the residual material called sludge at the Allen Water Treatment Plant. At the same meeting, City Manager Eric Keck said the city has begun the process to hire an independent company to do a complete assessment of the water plant sludge. The issue is the material created during the water treatment process, called residuals and referred to as sludge. Alum sludge is a byproduct of the water filtration process. The sludge contains naturally occurring background levels of radioactivity, and it is spread out and dried adjacent to the water plant. It is then shipped to a landfill with facilities to accept materials like the sludge that contain low levels of radioactivity. Residents who spoke to the council Sept. 6 asked for missing results of tests to be provided and asked that residents have a role in selecting the independent firm to test and assess the sludge.

Dogs take over Pirates Cove Canines enjoy a day at the pools during annual doggie plunge

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Dogs of every breed, color and size became honored guests at the Sept. 10 Doggie Plunge at Pirates Cove Family Aquatics Center.

Each year, after the pool is closed to the public for the season, Englewood cooperates with Freedom Service Dogs by allowing the organization to hold a fundraising event as they allow dogs to splash and swim in two of the park’s pools. Freedom Service Dogs is an organization that rescues dogs from shelters, trains them as service dogs and gives them to clients without cost. The Legg family from Arvada brought their dog, Hatch, to the event. “Our dog had such a great time to-

HELLO

... My Name Is

A glimpse of the people in our community

A.J. WYNKOOP Gardener, former resident of Southview Place Towers About me I moved to Littleton from Denver with my family in 1967. I have two sons and one daughter and my wife died two years ago. I lived for 37 years in a house on Panama Street. I lived in Southview Place Towers until it had a fire in April, and now I live in Highline Place Memory Care.

Climbing poles I was born in Oklahoma but I’ve been in Colorado most of my life. We moved around a lot when I was a kid. We moved to Arizona and then to Colorado. I lived over on the Western Slope for a long time. I still have a lot of family in the Grand Junction area. I worked for AT&T as a lineman, climbing poles, and at the steel mill in Pueblo. I worked for 36 years for Gates Rubber, first at the plant on what’s now Mineral Avenue, and I ended up in Montbello at the warehouse.

NEWS IN A HURRY City Council holding budget hearings The Littleton City Council will hold three study sessions on the budget for the upcoming year next week. The sessions will begin at 6 p.m. on Sept. 19, 20 and 21. The Historical Preservation Board meeting originally scheduled for Sept. 19 will be held on Sept. 22 instead.

For fun We used to camp a lot at Rampart Range, up in the mountains. I rode motorcycles and trail bikes and four-wheelers up until I was 80. I liked the freedom of riding. My bike was street-legal but I never did that much riding on the street. I had a camping trailer and always took the bike along. I also loved to garden. I grew tomatoes and peppers and other vegetables.

#TinyLab spends a week in Centennial Family’s tiny house exhibits highest performance standards in home improvement

QUICK TIPS As part of their Proof is Possible Tour, Grace and Corbett Lunsford created a mini-magazine, titled “Proof is Possible: How to keep an eye on your new home construction or home improvement,” that outlines their mission. Below are some quick tips they include on home performance testing.

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com Corbett and Grace Lunsford live in a tiny house on wheels. The 210-squarefoot humble abode is equipped with a mini-kitchen, dining area, master bed, nursery for their baby and a bathroom. From the outside, it resembles a blue rectangular box. Inside is a modern living space with high ceilings, copper appliances, sleek lighting and simple decor. But even more noteworthy is its mechanical system. Their tiny home is built to the highest performance standards in energy efficiency, indoor air quality, comfort and durability. It uses green materials and consumes only as much energy as it produces. The Lunsfords call it the #TinyLab and they are taking it to 20 cities across the country for their Proof Is Possible Tour. They stopped in Centennial, at Centennial Center Park on East Arapahoe Avenue, from Sept. 5-10. Other cities on the tour include San Diego, Dallas, Baltimore and Chicago. Their goal is to teach homeowners and contractors how to use scientific testing to prove that home improvement work meets the highest standards of safety, efficiency and reliabilty. “Efficiency, comfort, safety and savings are all byproducts of performance,” Grace said. The couple, in their late 20s, hasn’t always been in the home-improvement industry. Corbett started off as a professional piano player. In 2008, he decided to switch career paths and a year later, he started teaching a building performance workshop. He’s since hosted more than 100 YouTube videos and conducted 60 interviews for his podcast. He’s also written a book: “Home Performance Diagnostics: The Guide to Advanced Testing.” Grace was an actress and still performs voiceovers. She’s also a film producer and the mastermind behind many of her husband’s YouTube videos. Each city on the Proof Is Possible Tour is sponsored by a local company that shares the same values as the Lunsfords. Centennial’s sponsor was SSP Innovations, a geographical information system and work-management software company that specializes in technologies for electric, gas, water, and fiber utilities. “We help customers make a plan and map for safety,” said Skye Perry, founder of SSP Innovations. While Perry deals with larger companies, the Lunsfords want to reach the average homeowner or consumer. “We want to teach people to treat their house like their body,” said Corbett, who calls himself a building forensics investigator and testing guru. In Centennial, about 75 percent of homes were built before 1990, which means they may soon need repairs. “Homeowners are pretty savvy here,” said Shirley Berg, building services director for the City of Centennial. “This takes it to another level of understanding. It’s looking at the science and getting specific.” The Lunsfords encourage homeowners to use a trained home-performance professional, otherwise known as an energy auditor, who can pinpoint where an improvement is needed based on numbers. They consider the homes a system, just like a car or a body. “The reality is that no one product fixes your home as a system,” Corbett said, “and any symptom you find might actually be an indication of a problem somewhere else in your home.” Along the Proof is Possible Tour, certain cities will be featured in the couple’s upcoming TV show, “Home Diagnosis.” The six-episode series will be featured on PBS next summer. The Lunsfords hope to revoluntionize the home-development industry. “Just ask for proof,” Corbett said, “and if a contractor can’t give it to you, move on to the next one.”

Set measurable goals. The Lunsfords compare the expectations of a home to the expectations of a restaurant. When you go out to eat, you expect your food to taste good, to be served hot and to come exactly how you ordered it. Your house should feel good, have consistent air temperature and your equipment should perform how it says it will on the label. Based on performance tests, your contractor should guarantee these goals.

The most important element is air quality. You want your family to breathe healthy air, which is why the Lunsfords recommend air sealing — a process that involves finding and sealing air leakage points throughout the house, such as an attic or a fireplace or a crawlspace. Fresh air ventilation should be planned into homes that are reasonably airtight, the Lunsfords say. Airtight homes also prevent leakage of heat and cool air. Flooring. Your house can hurt your family, the Lunsfords say. Some types of flooring, including laminate and plywood, use glue that contains formaldehyde, a colorless, flammable gas. The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry says that at low levels, formaldehyde can cause eye, nose and throat irritation. At higher levels, exposure can cause skin rashes, shortness of breath, wheezing and changes in lung function. Home Depot sells formaldehyde-free plywood, which is what the Lunsfords have in their #TinyLab.

Grace Lunsford stands in the #TinyLab’s kitchen, which is equipped with similar appliances of a landlocked house. Lunsford, an actress and film producer, is the mastermind behind her husband’s home improvement videos.

Test, test, test. The Lunsfords say the only way to prove you have control of your home is through performance testing, which gives you a before-and-after comparison through checklists and energy usage metrics. Performance-based contracting is a business model that many contractors use, the Lunsfords say. All you need to know is what to ask for.

Littleton Public Schools this week

By Kyle Harding | kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com

The Littleton Public Schools Board of Education met on Sept. 8 for the second meeting since the school year began. The board received an update on construction at district schools, approved a resolution in favor of continuing a tax supporting cultural institutions and honored classroom volunteers.

Continuing SCFD

The board signed on unanimously in support of renewing the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District, which levies a 0.1 percent sales tax across the seven-county Denver metro area to support cultural facilities. Voters will decide in November whether to renew the district for 12 years. Originally approved in 1988, it was renewed in 1994 and 2004. About 300 organizations throughout the area receive funding from the district. Local recipients include Arapahoe Philharmonic, Littleton Symphony Orchestra, Hudson Gardens and Events Center, Town Hall Arts Center and Carson Nature Center.

Old latex paint? Don’t flip out! Dry it out! Have you been stockpiling cans of latex paint, waiting for the next Douglas County Household Chemical Roundup? Good news – latex paint is water-based and safe to throw away, if prepared properly. If the paint is completely dry, simply remove the lid and throw the can away. If there is still wet paint in the can, mix in some dirt or cat litter to fully absorb it. Once it is dry, throw it away. Save yourself a trip to the Roundup (and the $25 contribution) if you have water-based paint. Remember, this only applies to water-based latex paint, and NO paint can be dumped in the gutter or thrown in the trash wet. Make a difference in keeping our waterways clean by practicing cost-effective ways to dispose of materials properly. Local stormwater agencies are teaming together to bring you this message.

Flu vaccine protocols change for children Shots are planned as nasal mist becomes less effective

sion of the vaccine isn’t working as well as a jab. Needle-phobic adults still have some less painful options. But FluMist, with its squirt into each nostril, was the only ouch-free alternative for children, and has accounted for about a third of pediatric flu vaccinations in recent years. The problem: Studies from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found in the past few years, FluMist hasn’t protected against certain influenza strains as well as regular flu shots. Baffled scientists can’t explain why. The CDC says FluMist should not be used in the U.S. this year. On Sept. 6, the American Academy of Pediatrics agreed and urged youngsters to roll up their sleeves for a shot. “We’re saying, `Shoot, now we’ve got to do the poke again,’” said Dr. Wendy Sue Swanson of Seattle Children’s Hospital and the AAP. But, “we know the flu vaccine is the best shot at prevention and protecting those who are vulnerable from serious and even life-threatening infections from influenza.” Swanson has tricks to help ease tears and anxiety, like numbing the skin or distraction techniques like telling the youngster to cough on the count of three, coinciding with the poke. Sometimes the youngest feel braver by going first to show up older siblings. Swanson makes her own vaccination a family affair, parents and kids getting the shot together. But her top advice: Parents, don’t lie and tell your kids the shot won’t hurt. Instead, tell them “it might hurt a bit but it doesn’t last long and you can do this.” The FluMist mystery isn’t the only vaccine news. Seniors are getting a new option made with an immune booster in hopes of more protection. Here are some other things to know:

S

everyone starting at 6 months of age. Flu is most dangerous for people over age 65, young children, pregnant women and people with certain health conditions such as asthma or heart disease. But it sometimes kills even the healthy and young. The CDC says on average flu kills about 24,000 Americans each year, including about 100 children. If mom gets a flu shot during pregnancy, the vaccine also helps protect her baby during its first six months of life. When to get the shot Vaccinations are getting under way as shipments arrive at grocery stores, clinics and doctors’ offices. Despite the FluMist problem, the CDC expects enough to meet the typical U.S. demand, between 157 million and 168 million shot doses. Flu typically peaks in January or February but there’s no way to predict when it will begin spreading, and it takes about two weeks for full protection to kick in. Will you still get sick? Flu shots are made with killed flu virus, so you can’t get the flu from them. But they’re not perfect; CDC says they reduce the risk of flu by 50 percent to 60 percent. Sometimes people still catch the flu but generally have a milder case than if they’d gone unvaccinated, or had flu-like symptoms that were caused by a different virus. And occasionally, a strain starts circulating that wasn’t included in the vaccine recipe. About FluMist Earlier studies had suggested FluMist actually protected youngsters better than shots. It’s not clear why, although FluMist is the only vaccine made of live but weakened flu virus.

Pirates Cove proposal outlined Master plan update includes possible climbing wall, other amenities

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Pirates Cove Family Aquatics Park could undergo changes under the proposals included as part of the new Englewood Parks and Recreation Master Plan being developed by the city and its consultants. Dorothy Hargrove told the city council at the Sept. 6 study session about the progress being made developing the master plan, which she said will be used as a framework in planning future improvements to parks and recreation facilities and programs. The city and its consultants have been working on the master plan for several months. There have been interviews, meetings and an online survey to get information about what residents want to see done with parks and recreation facilities and programs. A Pirates Cove expansion feasibility study is part of the master plan. Some of the proposals are creation of a climbing wall, a wave simulator, a covered pavilion deck, updating the children’s play area and the addition of new attraction called a side-by-side mat racer. “Pirates Cove has been very successful and we know for it to remain successful, we have to invest in upgrades to our facilities and attractions at the park,” said Joe Sack, recreation services manager. “We did a survey of park uses to help us develop some possible upgrades for Pirates Cove.” He noted all the proposed upgrades are still in the planning stage, funding hasn’t been identified and no set timeline has been established to move forward with the improvements. He said the feasibility study looked at several possible

future upgrades and improvements. He said the estimated cost of all the proposals would be about $5 million. However, he said the plan is to spread the improvements over the next three years. Sack said the estimated cost of a climbing wall that could be added to the main pool would be about $50,000. A major proposal would be the creation of a side-byside mat racer. “The racer would be a slide with up to four people riding mats down the slide at the same time,” Sack explained. “We feel the mat racer could be very popular and possibly attract new customers to Pirates Cove.” He said the estimated cost of the mat racer would be about $1.7 million. Sack said the proposed wave simulator would be used by one person at a time to go “surfing” in the pool. The

estimate cost would be about $1.5 million. Another proposed upgrade would be a pavilion on the deck. Sack said there have been requests for the pavilion and noted it could be used for parties and rented for special events. The next step is to continue to work with residents to refine and update the information in order to prepare a draft parks and recreation master plan that will be presented to the council and the public later this year.

We are better than that ... aren’t we? Here’s the scenario: You have been invited to a function or party where you know that there will be a few people in attendance who will be cynical, judgmental, opinionated and who will speak condescendingly to everyone they feel is not quite an equal. It is so obvious we almost choose not to attend the party just so we don’t have to be subjected to the torment. But we are better than that. We know there will be more people attending that we do care to see and be with, and we predetermine in our mind that if we become the target of glares and stares or a sarcastic or condescending remark that we have prepared our gracious and powerful response as we take the high road. We do this because we are better than that. Or maybe we are waiting patiently in a line or traffic and we see someone trying to get ahead of us, they are weaving into our lane or trying to cut the line. We watch as others get aggravated and we observe the wrong and rude behavior of the line-cutting perpetrator, but instead of jumping on the road rage bandwagon or shoulder block the person trying to get ahead of us, we slow down and again offer grace as we allow them to get ahead of us. We do this because maybe they have a real reason or emergency to attend to, but more importantly do you know why we do this? Because

we are better than that. Taking the high road is never to be mistaken as being a doormat. I am not advocating weakness — far from it, I am advocating strength. It’s easy for the weak and unconfident to take out their frustrations and insecurities on another person Michael Norton or attempt to take WINNING advantage of a situation or control or manipuWORDS late someone. It takes strength, confidence and grace to take the high road, see through the veil of the phony and fake, and to provide hope and encouragement through the strength of our words and actions. And why do we do this? That’s right, because we are better than that. And the sooner we can help embrace this concept, share this message with our friends and children, the sooner we can maybe make a difference in the world. Maybe that difference is in our own family, our circle of friends, the social circles we travel in, our workplace, our houses of worship, and most importantly

we need to get this message of “being better than that” into the hearts and minds of our children and grandchildren, and maybe, just maybe we can stem the tide of bullying at every level. So are you the person people worry about being in attendance at a wedding or party? Are you the person who maybe considers yourself above the others who will be there and who sits in judgment of others? Were you a bully when you were younger and continue to bully others in your adult life? Is your child one of the bullies at school? Tough questions, I know, but I ask you these questions because if you answered yes, or even feel like you could have answered yes, I have great news for you: You are better than that too. What’s your story? Or what is your opinion? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And as we provide grace to one another and take the high road, and as we all realize that we are indeed better than that, or we are at least capable of being better than that, this will be a better-than-good week and the start to a better-than-good life. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corp., a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

Why we should all care about these disorders In looking over the national calendar, I noticed a plethora of designations for the month of September, like Better Breakfast Month, Self Improvement Month, and International Square Dancing Month, for example. As I’m scrolling down the list for a Linda Newell while, I’m thinking why GUEST am I doing this? But I kept going down into COLUMN that internet rabbit hole, and the more I researched, the more I found, like two of my passionate advocate topics, International Peace Day and Suicide Prevention Month, which I’ve written about before. But the one that caught my eye was the little-known FASD Awareness Month (fetal alcohol spectrum disorders). Why, and why should we all care, not just pregnant or to-be-pregnant moms? Now I’ve done some of this research before because of two FASD bills I sponsored in the Senate in prior sessions, both having failed on party-line votes, oddly. So, in looking back at that, I was reminded of the stark fiscal and human costs for all of us. Prenatal alcohol use is the leading cause of preventable intellectual disabilities and birth defects. It’s time we finally debunk the myth that it’s OK for soon-to-be mothers to drink alcohol during pregnancy. It used to be that even some physicians would say a glass of wine every now and then or in a certain trimester wouldn’t hurt the baby. Research has proven that to be false. The most current guidelines are that there is no safe amount, no safe time, and no safe alcohol. Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, as with autism, are a wide range of physical, mental, behavioral, and/or learning disabilities that can happen with children born to a mom who drank alcohol during pregnancy. They can also show up as learning disabilities and behavioral problems in children, teens, and adults. Children, families, and taxpayers are being burdened with the human and economic

QUIET DESPERATION

The Grim Reaper is all around us and dancing to a merry tune. Famines and floods disrupt our happy picnics. Radicals and terrorists make our lives miserable. The makers of EpiPens are up to no good. But over there at the paint factory, someone threw a dart at the color wheel and it landed on “Poised

Taupe.” “Poised Taupe” is the 2017 Color of the Year. It’s gray, but “gray” has no poetry or pretension in it, so Sherwin-Williams came up with “Poised Taupe.” In 2012, the Color of the Year was green, but Sherwin-Williams called it “Argyle.” In 2013, it was light green, but they called it “Aloe.” In 2014, “Exclusive Plum.” In 2015, “Coral Reef.”

In 2016, “Alabaster.” Poised Taupe is “what happens when cool gray gets together with brown and has a baby.” Or it’s what happens when I clean my brushes in turpentine. The liquid is kind of a light warm gray. In other words, it’s Poised Taupe. Some people need to be told what color to paint the pantry. Not me. My home is white, with tasteful accents of white, right next to white and more white. I don’t want anything to clash with the dachshund. One woman, Jackie Jordan, made the Color of the Year selections for SherwinWilliams for decades. She retired. I wonder if it is a 9 to 5 job? Would you be influenced in the spring by blues and greens, or in the fall by oranges and yellows? Or could you reach a higher level of sagacity and say “Aloe” to your boss on the due date? Jordan’s successor, Sue Wadden, was asked about her choice for 2017. “Were you nervous?” “I was a little nervous,” Wadden said. “But when it came down to doing the work, Smith continues on Page 11

Time to bring higher standards to amendment process When Coloradans vote this year, they will help determine the economic future of the state through a number of initiatives on the ballot. In short, this is a ballot as varied and potentially impactful as any we’ve ever faced. While the specific issues may be unique to 2016, the process of putting transformative policies of all stripes to a vote of the entire electorate, thereby locking them intractably into the state constitution, is not. Colorado is among a handful of states with an absurdly easy process for altering its state constitution. That’s why the South Metro Denver Chamber has endorsed Amendment 71, coined “Raise the Bar” by the measure’s backers, and why we encourage Colorado voters to pass it. Our constitution deserves to be safeguarded. With more than 150 amendments already housed inside our constitution, Colorado has become a playground for activists from all across the country to parachute in and advance their agenda through the petition process. The reason is the relative ease of

So it was a surprise when CDC said earlier this spring that scenario was flipping and FluMist was failing against certain strains. One theory is that it has to do with a change in the nasal spray’s recipe to incorporate four strains of influenza instead of three. “Having this scientific puzzle really bothers everybody,” said Dr. William Schaffner of Vanderbilt University and the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases. The FluMist recommendation could change for future flu seasons if research-

the choice was simple. All signs pointed so strongly in this direction that choosing wasn’t as scary as I thought it would be.” It’s hard for me to take this seriously. Colors are very important to me, but designating just one, and giving it a silly name, is something that has never occurred to me. Mark Woodman, immediate past president of the Color Marketing Group, said — and I promise that I am not making this up — “It’s a very good evolution of gray. We needed a stable gray to get us centered after the financial crisis in 2008.” The Color Marketing Group comes up with the colors that “you’ll want to wear, drive and decorate with two years from now.” I’m sure there are some well-paid color consultants at CMG, but I think a chicken

costs of prenatal substance exposure. Millions of dollars are spent every year on the effects of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders with: • School and employment problems. • Those arrested or involved with the law. (The juvenile justice system often has a high proportion of these affected youths because it adversely affects their problemsolving and decision-making skills.) • Adults unable to live independently. • Children in foster care, failed adoptions, physical and mental health, and substance-abuse treatment By screening children who were prenatally exposed to alcohol at the earliest possible time, an accurate diagnosis can contribute to positive long-term outcomes for children and families.

gaining access to our ballot, and the result is a document with nearly six times more amendments than the U.S. Constitution, many of which stand in opposition to each other. We fully support a citizenry’s right Robert Golden to alter its foundational document, GUEST but we also believe in order to do so, a COLUMN higher hurdle than one for mere statutory change should be required. That’s what makes Amendment 71 worthy of passage. So what does Amendment 71 do? Currently, supporters of a constitutional amendment must obtain signatures totaling 5 percent of votes cast in the most recent election for Secretary of State. This requirement would not change. What would change is a provision that

demands 2% be gathered from each of Colorado’s state Senate districts. This matters because it’s possible (and even likely) that activists can gather signatures from densely populated communities along the Front Range. Amendment 71 ensures that citizens from all over the state have a voice in determining what gets included for consideration in the constitution, ensuring if something does make the ballot, all sectors of Colorado are represented. The other main change included in Amendment 71 is the higher threshold for passage. Instead of a mere majority, Amendment 71 requires a 55% passage rate from voters for approval. This ensures only bedrock principles supported by a larger cross-section of our state’s voters alter our most important document. It’s important to note that in our support, the South Metro Denver Chamber does not advocate for diminishing or outright eliminating anyone’s right to propose change in how we’re governed. Far from it. Issues of public concern,

particularly those brought forth in the citizen initiative process, deserve full and vigorous public vetting and debate. Amendment 71 does not affect the process for proposing statutory change, an important distinction in the way it’s written. We support Amendment 71 because we represent hundreds of businesses, and, by extension, thousands of employees. Businesses seek certainty to operate prosperously. And when it’s possible – even easy – to change our most foundational document, you eliminate much of that certainty, which affects a business’s ability to successfully plan long term. It seems only prudent to request that those who wish to foundationally affect all of Colorado obtain signatures from every corner of the state and earn approval from a greater majority of voters. Let’s Raise the Bar, Colorado. For the good of Colorado’s businesses, citizens and our state constitution.

One alternative to standard shots is Sanofi’s High-Dose Fluzone, containing four times the usual anti-flu ingredient. This year seniors have a second alternative, Seqiris’ Fluad with “adjuvant,” the

LIFE Cold-blooded critters make good pets, too LOCAL

Turtles are popular starter reptiles, and there are many varieties in size and habitat. Cage sizes and heating requirements vary, and people considering purchasing them should be aware of these requirements. Courtesy photo

But you have to understand what amphibians and reptiles need By Clarke Reader creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com

WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE BUYING AN EXOTIC PET

T

hey may look completely different, but a bearded dragon lizard reminds Dillon Lanigan of a dog. “It’s a pretty amazing bond people form with their reptiles and amphibians,” said Lanigan, manager of the Northglenn Scales ‘N Tails. “Reptiles imprint on you — if you get them young enough — and the affection that can exist is almost doglike.” Although it might surprise those with no experience, people who love exotic pets — like frogs, lizards, snakes and turtles — know these animals can make some of the most engaging pets for people of all ages. “We have several customers who are past 70 years old and have had snakes for years,” Lanigan said. “We have all ages, and all walks of life, who come through our shop.” Because pet shops that specialize in exotic animals aren’t as common as ones who cater to traditional furry friends, stores like Scales ‘N Tails, which also has locations in Lakewood and Englewood, Arvada’s Feeder Frenzy and Parker Exotic Pets become hubs for a culture. On any given Saturday, novices walk into Feeder Frenzy with questions about their first pet as experienced reptile owners pick up their weekly food supply. And then there’s the regular customers who stop by to visit. Perhaps they want to talk about how their pet is doing, see the new arrivals or hear what co-owners Jack Nelson and Dave Meidinger are working on. “We take an old-school approach to our shop, almost like a barbershop,” Meidinger said. “We want to ensure people are comfortable here and not afraid to ask questions.” There are plenty of misconceptions about amphibians and reptiles, and education is one of these shops’ best services to their customers, the owners said. Lanigan, Meidinger and Nelson all have extensive experience and gladly share their expertise. “Between the two of us, we’ve dealt with all kinds of species,” Nel-

Cost: Glass tanks and enclosures can be expensive, and many of these animals require lighting and heating that will add to electricity bills. Feeding and veterinary costs must also be considered. Size: Get a clear sense of how big the animal will grow. Larger animals require more space and higher feeding costs. Care: Everyone in the household should be on board with taking care of the animal. If one party loses interest, others must step up to ensure the animal is healthy and happy.

A black and white Argentine tegu takes a whiff with its tongue at Parker Exotic Pets in Parker on Sept. 8. The store’s owner, Jennifer Nystrom, says reptile owners often own dogs or cats as well and just want to add “something a little different” to their lives. Photo by Tom Skelley son said, referring to Meidinger. “We also work very closely with Homeward Bound Veterinary hospital, so if people have sick animals, they can help.” Before any animal is brought into Parker Exotic Pets, owner Jennifer Nystrom and manager Hanna Stroh do a lot of research to make sure they fully understand how to care for the animals and can share that information with customers. “It’s important to us we know how to provide excellent care,” Stroh said. “We’re doing research all the time to stay up on the latest information.” Since most amphibians and reptiles require glass tanks, heating lamps and specific foods, Scales ‘N Tails and Feeder Frenzy are cautious about to whom they sell their animals. “Things like increases in electrical bills and feed costs add up quite quickly,” Lanigan said. “Certain animals are just not for everybody, and people need to be smart about deciding if they should own these kinds of pets.” Pets continues on Page 13

Other pets: It’s important to consider how a new pet will affect any pets currently in a household. For example, if a house already has birds or other small animals, it may not be a good environment for a snake or large lizard.

Bearded dragons make a great starter lizard, said Dillon Lanigan, manager of Northglenn’s Scales ‘n’ Tails pet shop. He describes them as doglike in their affection. Courtesy photo

Writing about music and lessons learned With my recent vacation and trying to regain my work rhythm upon my return, the anniversary of this column quietly sailed by on Sept. 3. Looking back on my first year as Colorado Community Media’s music columnist, here are a few figures I noted: I’ve written 27 columns, received a dozen fantastic recommendations from readers, curated eight different lists, and received only one mildly threatening letter. Not bad for a year’s work. Sharing my thoughts on music and the subtle and overwhelming ways it touches our lives has been an extraordinarily edifying experience. In honor of this occasion, I’d like to share some lessons I’ve learned. The first, and most repeated lesson, is the different ways music can be interpreted, affecting the listener based on his or her life experiences. In a piece I wrote about music helping with the grieving process, I mentioned artists like James Taylor and Simon and Garfunkel as being immensely comforting during hard times. But I heard from several readers who said they grew up with those musicians’ work, and found them to be joyous music for happy

Pets Continued from Page 12

The Foothills Animal Shelter often becomes the home for these pets, after they’ve been surrendered by their owners. “We get pets from people who just weren’t ready for whatever the animal needs to thrive,” said Jessi Burns, marketing and communications manager with the shelter. “We’ve been trying to get the word out more about our ‘critter corner’ area, and the animals in need of a home there.” One of the best ways to ensure a household is ready for an exotic pet is to do a lot of research, Burns said, and to talk to people who have experience keeping these animals as pets. “Make sure everyone in the house is on board with taking care of the animal,” she said. “So often children get these animals, but when they lose interest, the parents don’t want to take care of the pet either.” There are so many varieties of reptiles and amphibians, and that’s one of the things that makes them such great pets, Stroh said. “It’s so exciting to see all the different personalities these animals have, even within the same species,” she said. “ Depending on how much time you want to spend on the animal, there are a lot of options.” Reptiles and amphibians can be great pets for children, if taught properly, Burns said. A key lesson is how to be responsible and care for another living thing, a sentiment borne out by the experiences of those at Scales ‘N Tails and Feeder Frenzy. “I love helping people get their first animal, and setting them up to be healthy,” Nelson said. “My favorite part is when they come back with a healthy, grown animal that is doing well.”

times, too. So much of art depends on the listener, and as a critic and consumer it can be easy to forget that. Thankfully, I have readers who aren’t afraid to share their musical stories. Another lesClarke Reader son I’ve learned is “the classics” are LINER called that for a NOTES reason — they still have a strong pull on people of all ages. Some of the columns I received the most feedback from, not just from older residents but people in my age group of 30-somethings, touched on the continued impact of classic artists and genres. In my first column I asked readers to share their favorite song of the summer. The bulk of the results fell into the classic rock and pop arenas — songs like Sly Stone’s “Hot Fun in the Summertime” and “Summer Nights” from “Grease” were popular choices. Even my favorite sum-

mer song is “Night Move” by Bob Seger. One of the most interesting lessons I learned is that while music may ease conversation of social issues and changes, that doesn’t mean discussion of said issues or topics will go smoother. In this column I’ve written twice about the ways music can impact politics and political discourse, about supporting women who are victims of abuse and the important music coming out of the Black Lives Matter movement. I hoped using music as an entryway to these topics — a bridge to potential divides by using a shared language and art — would make reaching out easier. There was certainly some of that in the past year, but we can all try harder to have open dialogue about issues that make us uncomfortable. Those are just some of the key lessons I’ve taken away from this first year, and I’m eager to engage with more of you about why you love music. Thanks for sticking with me on this ride. Now go press play on something great. Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week. A community editor with Colo-

Residents pitch in to help community More than 100 volunteer for Englewood Day of Service

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Work challenges that varied from clearing away brush and taking down a dead tree to building a new set of stairs faced teams of residents who signed up to spend the Sept. 10 day of service helping fellow Englewood residents. Englewood joined Golden and Arvada in enlisting volunteers for the Neighborhood Rehabilitation Program, now better known as Be a Tool. Englewood’s 100-plus volunteers were divided into teams to tackle projects at eight different homes. “I am here today to give back to the community by doing some work this Englewood resident can’t do,” Corey Smith said as he cleared away brush from the home at the corner of Oxford and Cherokee. “I live down the street and I am happy to help clear all

this brush away from this lady’s home.” Smith, about 15 adults and a number of children spent the day on the project, and homeowner Agnes Williams smiled as she saw the work being done. “Golly, I can’t find the words to tell you how much I appreciate what these folks are doing for me,” she said. “I try to keep the place looking nice but it is too large and I just can’t keep all the bushes trimmed and looking nice. These folks are doing the work I can’t do and it already is making the place look a lot nicer.” Alana Stonebridge was working alongside her husband and her children. “I moved back to Englewood in 2005 and I am so glad to be back in my hometown,” she said. “I ran track and cross country at Englewood High School. Back then my last name was Villarreal. I just love being back here. I can feel the momentum and pride among Englewood people. Just look at the turnout today to help people most of us don’t even know.” Her 8-year-old son, Silas, was

sawing some limbs off a bush so he could dig up the weeds covered by the limbs. “I like doing this,” he said. “I like helping this lady and I like that I can use this saw to cut these limbs. It is fun.” A few doors north on Cherokee, a team was trimming bushes and even cutting down a dead tree at the home of Neil Harlan. “I am a little shocked that all these people doing this work at my house but it is a good kind of shock,” the homeowner said. “I am not very young, this is a big yard, and I just couldn’t keep it trimmed up and looking nice. Saying ‘thank you’ to all these folks just doesn’t seem enough, because I don’t think there are words to tell them just how much I appreciate what they are doing here today.” One unexpected project at the Harlan house was the need to rebuild the stairs leading to the side yard. “The stairs needed work and we thought we could just fix them up,” volunteer Andrew McClish said. “When we started trying to

able to complete the training but she won my heart and now is my dog. She is having so much fun. This is such an awesome event for the dogs and for all of us who love our dogs.” A short distance away, Carl Curtis was throwing a rubber bone out into the water, so his dog, Hopper, could splash through the water in pursuit. “I adopted my dog from a shelter about three years ago and named him Hopper because he hops along rather than just runs along,” he said. “I live in an apartment and as you can see Hopper is full of energy so it is hard to get him enough exercise. He loves the water and he doesn’t get to run in the water a lot. That is why I really like the plunge. I have fun

Sludge Continued from Page 1

Kathleen Bailey is an Englewood resident who has spoken frequently to the city council about the sludge. She has made extensive studies of testing data and has been reporting supposed shortcomings. She told the council on Sept. 6 that records show an increase in the radioactive level in the sludge in 2010 and she believes there is a direct connection between the sludge and four Allen plant employees who have been stricken with cancer. Bailey said she has asked for and received sludge assessments for 2009, 2011 and 2012 but hasn’t received the 2010 assessment and asked for that report to be provided so she can have an independent analysis done of the sludge and its

Marijuana Continued from Page 1

Regarding the decision on sales, councilmembers approved placing a citizen initiative that would ban the retail sale of marijuana in Englewood on the ballot, and then approved placing a different citizen initiative that would permit the retail sale of marijuana in the city on the ballot. The second set of competing marijuana-related questions concerns taxing retail marijuana sales if voters

Children pitch in Sept. 10 as volunteers for Englewood Day of Service, which included this yard cleanup project. Joel Anderson, 5, Karis Anderson, 1, and Tommy Strawbridge took on the job of cleaning up yard debris and putting it in a trash bag. The children were among more than 100 volunteers who were split into teams to work on the eight Englewood Day of Service projects. Photo by Tom Munds fix the stairs we found the whole staircase was wobbly and rotten. So we took it out and are building a new study set of stairs here.” Johnny Borchardt, who was working on the staircase, said he lives in Englewood and volunteered to help others in the com-

watching him and he has fun in the water.” Dogs also had the run of the deep pool and Grayson found it to his liking because he could run and jump off the deck and into the water to chase a tennis ball. “My two dogs love this event and I wouldn’t miss it for the world,” Grayson’s owner, Terese Snowden, said. “Both my dogs love the water and they like to chase tennis balls in the water. This is such a great chance to have time here at the pool for the dogs. I have fun too because it is fun watching them plunge in and get the ball.” The Denver resident said she appreciates the fact Englewood opens the pools to the dogs at the end of the season and she is glad the event is a benefit for a great organization like Freedom Service Dogs. Owners signed up for an hourlong session in the pools. The event

was open from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. and there were owners and their dogs lined up at the gate waiting for their session. Laura Simpson waited her turn to take her dog Silver into Pirates Cove to play in the water. “Silver loves to run and play in the water,” the Jefferson County resident said. “She and I have been coming to the doggie plunge for four years. The fee is for a good cause, and Silver has so much fun in the water I feel it is worth the wait to get inside and for Silver and I to have a great time.” At about 11 a.m., a Freedom Service Dogs volunteer said they had already had about 200 dogs take part in the plunge. In past years, the event has drawn about 500 dogs and owners and it was expected at least that many would take part in this year’s plunge.

potential health risks. Other residents echoed similar opinions and, at the request of the council, Keck explained Englewood has begun the process to hire an independent company to do a complete assessment of the sludge. He said the data Bailey requested is missing from city files but he and staff are working with other agencies to seek to recover the data. He said once the city has the data, it will be provided to Bailey. He then talked about the process to hire an independent company to conduct a study about the plant, the sludge and treatment processes. “We have a list of areas we want assessed concerning the sludge as well as the plant operations,” he said. “We have sent out a request for proposals, asking for qualified companies to submit their qualifications to do the assessments we want done along with their fees for the process.”

He said the company will be asked to use available data to do a residual radiation human health assessment of the sludge. He said the company will also be asked to explore water treatment technology now in use to see if there could be improvements in the treatment system used at the Allen Plant. “Once we select a company, we ask them to begin work,” Keck said. “We do not now have an estimate of how long the company will need to complete the work we ask them to do. But, once it is done, the report will be presented to the council and will be made available to the public.” Discussion of the possible health hazards from sludge storage began several months ago when was a television news report about the issue and a flier distributed to those living near the plant discussing the potential health threats posed by the dust from the sludge.

approve retail sales. One taxing proposal was a citizen initiative and the other taxing question was the city council’s proposal on how retail marijuana sales should be taxed. City council approved placing the citizen initiative proposal on how retail sales should be taxed on the ballot, and then, after some discussion, the council also placed its version of the retail marijuana sales tax proposal on the ballot. The citizen initiative on taxation would allow a tax of up to 3.5 percent, capped at that level until Jan. 1, 2018, and then capable of being

raised 1.5 percentage points per year but not about 15 percent. The council’s taxing proposal would allow a 15 percent tax without the graduated limits of the citizen initiative. Mayor Joe Jefferson opposed putting the council’s taxing proposal on the ballot because he said both issues are very similar, and having two competing questions regarding taxation of retail marijuana sales could be confusing. However, the council didn’t agree, and voted to place its taxation question on the ballot.

Novelist to meet with readers in Englewood Shannon Baker’s new novel set in Nebraska Sand Hills

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com We meet Kate Fox, Shannon Baker’s new series heroine, as she runs into the house where she lives with her husband Ted, the county sheriff, and her orphaned niece Carly. It’s a snowy winter night and she’s been out on the Frog Creek Ranch property in the Nebraska Sand Hills, checking on her pregnant cows. The phone is ringing, niece Carly is missing — and her life is about to change. That’s how the story begins in “Stripped Bare,” the new novel by Baker, who will meet readers later this month at the Englewood Library. Baker, who lived in the Sand Hills for 20 years, uses the landscape almost as another character in her story, set in country where there are 50 cows for every one person. Kate, one of eight siblings, has grown up there and is married to a man who was her teenage crush and is now county sheriff. Her

greatest wish is to stay on the ranch and raise cattle — and perhaps children. That call is from Ted’s hysterical former high school girl friend, Roxy, who lives in an elaborate house on the Bar J Ranch property in Grand County, owned by wealthy Eldon Edwards, Carly’s grandfather. Eldon is dead and Kate’s husband has been shot and may not walk again Boots back on, Kate jumps into Elvis, her elderly ‘73 Ford Ranchero, and starts on a difficult, slippery drive to the Bar J, where she learns that Ted has been taken to the hospital — and that nearby Choker County Sheriff Miles Ferguson, first lawman on the scene, suspects Ted of killing elderly Eldon. Kate doesn’t believe him and determines to find the real killer. In days that follow, the reader meets a bevy of Baker’s carefully crafted characters, including her quirky parents and siblings, assorted folks who live at Eldon’s Bar J Ranch and in the town of Hodgekiss … The reader stays with Kate as she struggles and seeks answers. “Stripped Bare” is an engaging tale, set in a real Western landscape and filled with characters whose stories are woven together and

interwoven with Kate Fox’s story — all the way to a surprise ending. The author, now a Tucson resident, who has also created the Nora Abbott mystery series — involving environmental issues, Hopi mysticism and murder — and who won the 2014 Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers’ Writer of the Year award, will meet readers in a program at Englewood Library (Anderson Room) at 3 p.m. on Sept. 25. Joining her in discussing “Building Thrilling Characters” will be mystery writer Mark Stevens (the Allison Coil series — his “Lake of Fire” was reviewed here recently) and Kevin Wolf (“The Homeplace,” which won the Tony Hillerman prize for new authors).

AWARDS National Geographic photographer Steve Winter will speak at Lone Tree Arts Center about his adventures with big cats and how he shot his photos, like this one of a leopard. Courtesy photo

Big cats put in focus Lone Tree Arts Center hosts award-winner Steve Winter

IF YOU GO

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Asian jungles, Himalayan mountain heights, Latin American rain forests and even metropolitan Los Angeles … Award-winning photographer Steve Winter has traveled the world in search of big cats and other wildlife. He has been attacked by rhinos in India, stalked by jaguars in Brazil, charged by an 11-foot grizzly in Siberia and trapped in quicksand in the world’s largest tiger reserve in Myanmar. He slept in a tent for six months at 40 below zero to track the rare snow leopard. And year-round, he does all in his power to save these endangered animals from extinction. Winter will appear at Lone Tree Arts Center at 7:30 p.m. on Sept. 27 and 10 a.m. on Sept. 28 with his program, “On the Trail of the Big Cats with Steve Winter” — the first of four National Geographic Live programs in the Lone Tree season. This wildlife journalist/conservation photographer grew up in Iowa and studied journalism at Iowa State University. He received his first camera on his seventh birthday, a gift from his father, and has been a National Geographic photographer since 1991. He lectures nationally and internationally on photography and conservation issues and has published several books, including the beautiful

“The National Geographic Live: On the Trail of Big Cats with Steve Winter” will be presented at 7:30 Sept. 27 and 10 a.m. Sept. 28 at Lone Tree Arts Center, 10075 Commons St., Lone Tree. (Note that this replaces a previously announced program by Bob Poole: “Gorongosa Reborn,” because Poole changed his schedule and will be shooting in Mozambique on Sept. 27/28.) Tickets — Sept. 27, $34$40; Sept. 28 matinee, select seats, $18 (many are reserved for schoolchildren). Lonetreeartscenter.org, 720-509-1000.

coffee-table volume published by National Geographic, “Tigers Forever: Saving the World’s Most Endangered Cat.” Winter’s illustrated lecture will include stories of his adventures in jungles, deserts and on mountainous trails as he searches for fascinating animals — and also finds fascinating cultures and people. He wants to give his audiences a reason to care about their world and its inhabitants. Additional National Geographic Live programs listed in the Lone Tree Arts Center’s Calendar for the upcoming season: • Nov. 15, 16 — “The Lens of Adventure” • Jan 17, 18 — “Spinosaurus — Lost Giant of the Cretaceous” • May 16, 17 — “The Search for Life Beyond Earth”

Elephants almost never get cancer because they have 40 copies of a gene that prevents tumors; humans have only two. Parker Kneaders is at 19190 Mainstreet.

Broncos QB gains high praise from his mentor

Jalen Thomas (88) heads up the field as he returns a kick for Arapahoe during the Sept. 9 game against Heritage. The return gave the Warriors good field position as Arapahoe scored 17 second-quarter points to win the game, 17-3. Photo by Tom Munds

Warriors retain the milk can Arapahoe outscores Heritage in annual Brookridge Trophy game By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com The ground shook at Littleton Public Schools Stadium as the red-clad Heritage fans and the Arapahoe fans wearing black jumped up and down cheering for their teams during the Sept. 9 rivalry game. The Warriors won to retain the Brookridge Trophy for another year. The trophy honors history that includes the Brookridge Dairy that was at one time the largest dairy in the state, and its property stretched over land now occupied by Littleton Public

KEEPING SCORE WITH... JARROD HOLT Junior cross country/ track athlete rit He age High School

Who is your favorite professional or collegiate athlete (past or present)? Peyton Manning because he’s a class act and one of the best ever to play. Why do you participate in sports? I enjoy the camaraderie I share with my teammates as well as setting and accomplishing my goals. What is your favorite type of music and who is your favorite artist/ group? Country music — Luke Bryan.

Schools Stadium. The trophy is a silver milk can that was first presented to the winner of the 1972 Arapahoe-Heritage game. Since then, the winner of the Arapahoe-Heritage rivalry game keeps the trophy until the next time the two teams meet. This year, Heritage took the opening kickoff and booted a field goal to take the lead with 7:39 left in the first quarter. But Arapahoe responded in the second quarter with two touchdowns and a field goal for 17 unanswered points, which held up as the Warriors won, 17-3. “We’ll take the win, particularly against a longtime rival in this very exciting setting,” Warriors coach Mike Campbell said. “We had the two touchdowns and decided to take a chance on a run, but Heritage defender Josh

Martin did a great job and stopped us. So we spiked the ball and kicked the field goal.” Arapahoe is 2-0 and Campbell said the team faces a major challenge Sept. 16 as they are on the road against perennial 5A title contender Cherry Creek. “Creek is a good team and it should be a heck of a game,” he said. Key moments Heritage led 3-0 in the second quarter when Arapahoe took over on its own 36-yard-line. The Warriors mounted a well-executed 14-play drive culminated with sophomore quarterback Kevin Lukasiewicz running the ball on a keeper for a touchdown. Warriors continues on Page 31

What is your favorite subject in school? History because my teacher has made the material very engaging. Do you have any pre-competition superstitions or rituals? I take some deep breaths, try to relax, say a prayer and have my mind focused on what I want to accomplish.

What is your favorite book? The “Hunger Games” series, since they always kept me on the edge of my seat.

What are your plans for after high school? I would like to major in finance and hopefully compete in collegiate track and cross country. “Keeping Score With…” is a Q&A with high school athletes in the south metro area.

 Judd Erickson, football, senior, Mountain Vista: He followed a highlight performance against Poudre by going 33-of-61 for 457 yards and six touchdowns in a 49-34 win over Rangeview on Sept. 9. Erickson passed for 450 yards and four touchdowns in the Golden Eagles’ season-opening 67-37 win over Poudre. In two games, he has gone 63-of-104, with no interceptions, for 907 yards and 10 touchdowns.  Melissa Evans, volleyball, senior, Highlands Ranch: She had 27 kills in a 3-1 win over Chaparral as the Falcons won the Regis Jam Tournament Sept. 3. She had 22 kills in a 3-0 victory over Westminster on Sept. 8. The national average for kills is 18 per match.  Nicco Ciccio, football, senior, Lutheran: Ciccio finished with 13 catches for 160 yards and three touchdowns from quarterback William Willis in a 34-13 win over Berthoud on Sept. 9.  Nikki Sobeck, volleyball, senior, Littleton: She had 14 digs and eight serving aces in a 3-0 win over Thornton on Sept. 8.  Chris Grauberger, soccer, junior, Arapahoe: He had two goals and an assist in the Warriors’ 6-1 triumph over Thompson Valley on Sept. 6.

To nominate an athlete, contact Jim Benton at jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Mick McCall has a message for Broncos fans who might still have concerns about the learning curve that quarterback Trevor Siemian is facing. Siemian made his first National Football League start in the Thursday night game Sept. 8 and helped the Broncos beat Carolina, 2120, in a Super Bowl rematch in Denver. McCall, the former Douglas Jim Benton County High OVERTIME athlete and Huskies and Mullen football coach, is the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks mentor at Northwestern, where he tutored Siemian. He says there was nothing surprising about Siemian’s first-game performance and he echoed the Broncos players’ praise of their quarterback’s composure and athletic ability. “I keep telling everybody he is a real level guy and he never gets too high or gets too low,” McCall said. “He connects with everybody, whether it’s the offensive line, the defensive line, DBs or wide receivers. “As a football player, he’s always had a live arm and really studies the game hard. He just takes things as they come... He doesn’t get rattled.” Siemian, who was the Broncos’ third quarterback last season but only took one kneel-down snap in a regular-season game, completed 18 of 26 passes for 178 yards and a touchdown, and he showed the ability to rush for first downs. But he threw two interceptions. Denver fans booed several times when the offense left the field. “He’s not going to let one mistake or a bump in the road hurt him,” McCall said. “He’s going to keep playing and do what he can do. We always talked about this — worry about things you can control and take care of those things. Things out of your control you just have to get up and find a way the next time.” Siemian has the ability to anticipate and throw to receivers before they break away from defenders, which is sometimes hard for new NFL starters to master. “He’s always done that,” McCall said. “We always talked about throwing people open, rather than waiting for them to get open. He’ll anticipate a little bit and trust his guys. He has great confidence with his receivers and everybody up front.” Siemian was part of a twoquarterback system at Northwestern with former Cherry Creek standout Kain Colter. “It was all about the team,” McCall said. “No matter what happens with the decision to start (in Denver), Trevor is always going to be a team guy.” New boys lacrosse coaches John Gallant, who played 14 Benton continues on Page 31

Golden-haired Bruins win third soccer match

Cherry Creek’s Sam Hallam heads the ball during the Sept. 6 game against Mountain Vista in Greenwood Village. Creek won the match, 1-0. Photo by Jim Benton

Most of them can’t wait to do it because then everybody knows you are on the varsity team. It’s harmless. We get a lot of attention everywhere we go. They think we’re all blonds.”

Chelo Curi, Cherry Creek soccer coach

HAVE A SPORTS STORY IDEA?

Creek boys come through with 1-0 triumph over Mountain Vista By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Boys on Cherry Creek’s soccer team have a custom of dyeing their hair when they make the varsity. On Sept. 6, the golden-haired Bruins won their third straight and toughest match of the season with a 1-0 victory over Mountain Vista at Village Greens Park in Greenwood Village. “We’re not really sure how it started but it’s been years,” said Creek coach Chelo Curi of the hair ritual. “That’s their thing. That’s what they like to do. As soon as they make the team, they do it professionally. They go to a hairstylist. They just don’t slap it on themselves. It’s their little tradition. They all want to do it. They don’t have to do it. “Most of them can’t wait to do it because then everybody knows you are on the varsity team. It’s harmless. We get a lot of attention everywhere

we go. They think we’re all blonds.”

to one for Creek.

Key moments After wins over Aurora Hinkley and Aurora Central, the Bruins faced a tough challenge against perennial powerhouse Mountain Vista, but junior Peter McHugh scored the only goal of the game early in the first half off an assist from Josh Albert, who was the only Creek player with his natural hair color because of a senior picture. “Josh just played me a perfect ball through,” McHugh said. “We’re getting better and better each game. We’re improving every time we’re together.” Mountain Vista elevated its play in the second half and had several scoring chances but couldn’t get the tying goal.

They said it “It was an early season sloppy game,” said Curi. “We were trying to score another goal but it was a little bit of not quite there yet. The opportunities were either one pass too many or one pass too little. We knew Mountain Vista was going to be good. Both teams were coming off long weekends (Labor Day) and you didn’t see the best of either one of us. It was good to play a good team early because it gave us a lot of things to work on.” Vista coach Theresa Echtermeyer was pleased with the play of her team in the final 40 minutes. “It was a great second half,” she said. “We had a couple great opportunities. We just couldn’t get it into the back of their net. I feel like we’re getting better every game and putting pieces together. That’s what non-league is for.”

Key players/statistics: Bruins’ junior Rykar Kumira, one of three goalies vying for the No. 1 position, made seven saves while Vista keeper Christopher Reicher was credited with four saves. Mountain Vista had four corner kicks during the match compared

Going forward Creek plays Mullen in a Centennial League contest Sept. 16 at Village Greens Park.

Warriors runners take honors at meet Arapahoe girls second, boys fourth at invitational By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Arapahoe runners had a good day at the recent Warrior Invitational Track Meet, placing in the top five in both the girls and the boys varsity division team standings. The ground around deKoevend Park in Centennial shook on Sept. 2 from the impact of hundreds of runners taking part in the annual event. For the first time in many years, the course included some changes, such as moving the water crossing further north on the route. Several runners said they liked the improvements. The Warriors joined a field of 164 runners representing 24 schools in the girls varsity division. Coronado, from Colorado Springs, won the girls team title with 117 points and Arapahoe, led by Allison Marizza’s seventh-place finish, took second place with 150 points. Cherry Creek’s Devon Peterson crossed the finish line in 11th place, helping the Bruins take eighth place in the team standings with 241 points. Heritage finished 21st and Littleton didn’t register a team score. Rock Canyon won the boys varsity title with 63 points and Cherry Creek earned a third place in team standings with 115 points as Kyle Moran finished third with a time of 16:24. Arapahoe was fourth in points with 126 with teammates James Logan and Kyle Kennedy finishing sixth and seventh, respectively. Heritage took 19th place with 498 points —Jarrod Holt, in 58th place, was the first Eagle to the finish line. Littleton finished in 20th place with 510 points; Christian Sapakoff was the first Lion in at the 34th position. Lion Assistant Coach Bill Knipmeyer

Arapahoe runners James Logan, left, and Kyle Kennedy push to pull ahead of Poudre’s Bryce Pietenpol coming down the home stretch of the boys varsity race during the Sept. 2 Warrior Invitational Cross Country Meet at DeKoevend Park in Centennial. Kennedy finished sixth and Logan finished seventh. Their effort helped Arapahoe amass the 126 points that earned the Warriors a fourth-place finish in the team standings. Photo by Tom Munds said this is a rebuilding year for cross country at Littleton. “About two-thirds of our boys and our girls are freshmen and sophomores and are learning to run distance and what cross country is all about,” he said.

One of those sophomores is Sapakoff. “My brother ran cross country so I decided to try it even though I honestly don’t know why I like to run,” he said. “Today was warm, but I really like the course and feel I ran pretty well, al-

though my time was slower than I had hoped.” He ran 18:03 at the Warrior Invitational and said his goal is to cut a minute or more off his time by the end of the season.

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF SEPT. 12, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Mars, your ruling planet, helps you deal with career challenges in a way that reflects some of your own hidden strengths.

After the kickoff, Heritage fumbled and Arapahoe senior quarterback Connor Desch passed to Scott Dement for the touchdown. Near the end of the quarter, Arapahoe drove down and kicked a field goal with seven seconds left on the clock to make the score 17-3. Heritage drove deep into Arapahoe territory in the fourth quarter but the Warriors kept them out of the end zone. Heritage coach Tyler Knoblock said after the game that while the Eagles didn’t win there were a lot of good things that came out of the game against a very good Class 5A team. “They made a run on us in the second quarter but, except for those two touchdowns, we showed we could play physically for four quarter against a quality opponent,” he said. “No one likes to lose, but I won’t hang my head because our Class 4A team was able

They said it Arapahoe running back Jeff Ulibarri had a good game and was called on to run the ball a lot, particularly in the second half. “It was a very special night as we played a tough Heritage team that is our rival,” the senior said. “Our line was outstanding, blocked well and made it possible for all of us who ran the ball to make good yardage for our team. Without those blockers up front, I couldn’t have gained a yard and I thank those guys for all they did. Our defense was also outstanding as they limited a good Heritage team to three points. The win is amazing and we will enjoy celebrating it.” Going forward Both teams return to playing opponents in their classification. The Warriors are on the road at Shea Stadium Sept. 23 against 5A opponent Mountain Vista while Heritage travels to All City Stadium Sept. 24 for a non-league Class 4A game against Denver South.
