Car show revs up excitement Chamber of commerce seeks to bring annual event back to city By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com The growl of powerful engines filled the air as drivers maneuvered into position to take part in the Aug. 10 Englewood Car Show. Vehicles, including customized pickups, race cars, motorcycles and hot rods, lined up along South Windermere Street from a block north of the light rail station to Kenyon for the event sponsored by the Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce. “I feel our car show was a success for our first year as we had more than 50 vehicles in the event,” Colleen Mellow, chamber director, said Aug. 12. “The turnout was a pleasant surprise because, the morning of the show, I only had 10 owners registered to bring their vehicle. John Schaefer and his wife Anne attended the Aug. 10 event to check out the vehicles on display. “Both Anne and I like cars of all kinds and we take every opportunity to come to a show like this to look at all the different makes, models and how some of the owners customized their vehicle,” the Littleton man said. “Small shows like this are more fun to attend because most of the owners are here and will talk to you about what they have done to their vehicle and how they did it. Our goal is to eventually build a customized muscle car and we take notes on information from owners we think may help us when we get started.” The modified coupe owned by Englewood resident Vern Adler drew a lot of crowd attention. Adler said it was built by Frank Dering and began as a 1932 Ford 5-window coupe. “A lot of changes have been made, including installing all the safety equipment and adding the wing plus adjusting the frame to handle a 350 cubic inch Chevrolet engine that has been modified to pro-
Owner Vern Adler wipes some of the dust off his modified coupe race car he had on display at the Aug 10 Englewood Car Show. The show drew more than 60 entries and raised money to help homeless veterans.

duce about 450 horsepower,” he said. “I like modified coupes and this is my fifth one. We have drivers for them and the race at Colorado National Speedway and at other tracks in Colorado and bordering states.” The show wrapped up in the afternoon and, Aug. 12, Mellow said she was pleased with how the event went. “I feel it was a success because people who brought their cars told me they liked

the show and had fun, plus we were able to raise more than $500 to help homeless veterans,” she said. “The Englewood Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 322 also had food and beverages for sale and what they raised added to our total that will go to help homeless veterans, who were the real winners.” The money raised will be used to purchase items homeless veterans need like sleeping bags, socks and coats, Mellow said. Car shows are not new to Englewood. There were shows in the 1960s and, more recently, the downtown area was the site of three Englewood Days Car Shows. Each year, several hundred owners brought their cars to the event. Unfortunately, the downtown car show ended in 2009. Mello said the Aug.10 event went well enough that she is planning for a repeat performance in 2014 as the chamber seeks to revive the show and hopefully build on the excitement the Englewood Days Car Show created.
The Carlton Academy Founding Board filed an application with the Englewood School District on Aug. 1 seeking schoolboard approval to open a facility in the city in August 2014. “The application met the school board deadline of Aug. 1,” said Brian Ewert, school superintendent. “A quick evaluation indicates they met all the requirements to submit the application to establish a charter school in Englewood.” He said the application will be evaluated internally, as well as by a trio of charter school application experts and by the school accountability board. “We also will have two public meetings, plus the board will meet with the charter school board,” the superintendent said. “State law requires the board must hand down a decision whether to accept or reject the application not later than Oct. 29.” He said the public hearing dates haven’t been set, but he expect one will be in late September and one in early October. This marks the second year in a row an application to establish a charter school in Englewood has been submitted. The board rejected last year’s application as insufficient in a number of areas. A number of the same proponents are on the board of directors that submitted this year’s application. “We have been working on this application since January,” said Matt Whipple, founding board president. “We went through a lengthy process, plus we worked closely with the Colorado League of Charter Schools to develop this application. I think it was three times we submitted the application to the league for review, got their feedback, addressed their concerns and resubmitted it. The result is a superior application that has been reviewed and approved by charter school experts.” He said the new application includes an improved budget and suggests three possible locations for the school, plus the detailed technical information and specific facts provide a better picture of what the school would look like once it is up and running. The three locations being considered for the charter school are the former church property east of Clarkson Street at U.S. Highway 285, the former Funtastic Fun indoor amusement park at Broadway and Dartmouth — a site also being eyed as a possible location for a Chick-fil-A restaurant — and a long-vacant, two-story office building on Hampden Avenue near Logan. The application requests permission to open the school’s doors in August 2014, offering classes for kindergartners through eighth-graders. The opening enrollment is forecast to be 200 with enrollment increasing to 420 in five years. The academy focus is to be a Core Knowledge charter school that creates a learning environment where the students are empowered to succeed.

Chest castings raise money for nonprofit Sense of Security assists people fighting breast cancer By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Twenty-five volunteers stepped up and had plaster casts made of their chests for Breasts of Colorado, a fundraiser for Sense of Security, which is a nonprofit organization providing financial assistance to those battling breast cancer. “We did Breasts of Colorado for the first time last year and we were able to raise $10,000 for Sense of Security. The reason we decided to raise money for Sense of Security is the money goes to help breast cancer patients here in Colorado,” said Rosemarie Cabal, who headed the project supported by the Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce. “We will put the castings on display for the Sept. 19 show here at our hair salon and art gallery.” The art show will be from 5 to 9 p.m. Sept. 19 at Cuttn’ it Loose Salon, 901 Englewood Parkway, Suite 100. There will be a live band and a silent auction. The castings will be judged and there will be prizes given to the artists and subjects of the top three castings. Breasts of Colorado is an art exhibit and fundraising event that is based on similar events held by California’s Keep-A-Breast Foundation and Breast Impressions of Tulsa, Okla. When a casting is made and the plaster
dries, the castings are handed off to local artists who consult with the volunteer and decorate the casting to create art works that reflect something of that individual’s character and activities. Each volunteer is asked to raise $250 to “ransom” the casting. Many of the castings are also put up for auction to raise more money for the project, with the proceeds of the silent auction going to Sense of Security. Sense of Security helps people who are going through breast cancer treatment with basic living expenses such as rent, groceries and utilities. Vicky Tosher, founder of Sense of Security, was one of those who stepped up to have plaster casts made of their chests. “It was cozy and felt just fine,” she said. “Then, I have been poked and prodded in the chest area by doctors for years, so having a plaster cast made was no problem.” Sense of Security was established in 1999 and awarded its first grant to an individual undergoing treatment for breast cancer in 2000. “We are proud the Breasts of Colorado selected us to receive the money the project raises,” said Rita McCoy, Sense of Security director. “We provide grants to an individual for up to six months. Often the breast cancer and the treatment mean an individual can’t work, so our grants help them deal with routine household expenses. There have been cases where our grants have meant there have been breast cancer patients who did not lose their homes because they couldn’t pay the mortgage.”

Crowds have a blast at FunFest Activities included entertainment and displays By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Judging from attendance, FunFest was a hit with residents of Englewood and surrounding communities as hundreds of people attended the Aug. 10 event at Belleview Park that was billed as “A Hometown Fair with a Flair.” Vendors offered a variety of food items for sale and there was a small fee for some of the activities like the rope course and bungee jump. However, there was no cost for most of the events, such as using beads to make a bracelet or creating chalk art. “I love art and it is fun to create something in chalk,” Jayne Thomas said as she created a flower. “I saw artists doing chalk art on the sidewalk downtown last week. It looked like fun and I decided to try it. It is fun.” She has been in Englewood about a year and said attending Funfest was a good decision for her and her daughter. “We learned a lot today about city programs that we didn’t know,” she said. “We also are having fun because my daughter and I can can both take part in so many of the activities. It is a great event and I hope they keep having it.” A short distance away, Ryan Hawkins was helping his son Noah work on a project out of wood. The annual booth sponsored by Loews has the kits and tools parents and their children need to complete the project. This year, the project was to create models of two characters from the movie, “Monsters 2.” “It is fun to get to work with my son like this,” Ryan said as he helped the 4-year-old line up some of the nails. “We are having a great time here today and it really is a good way to spend a day together.” There were booths sponsored by local companies and displays put on by city departments. For example, Health One had a booth emphasizing the need for children riding bikes to wear a helmet and fitted helmets for children who didn’t have helmets while just down the midway, the Englewood Community Garden had fresh vegetables available for a donation. One booth was staffed by a group of residents seeking to raise funds to build the Englewood High School Military Memorial to those EHS graduates who died in wars. The proposal is to have the memorial installed during the construction of the sevenththrough 12-grade campus on the EHS site.
Ryan Hawkins, left, helps his 4-year-old son Noah work on a wood project during Englewood’s Aug. 10 Funfest. The town fair features a wide variety of events and activities. Photos by Tom Munds The portable stage was set up at the south end of the fair so adults and children in parks and recreation classes could perform. Performers ranged from a solo guitarist to a group of adult belly dancers. Instructor Gina Fontaine gathered dozens of children and some of their parents around her, handed out the instruments and conducted a drum circle. Joel Givens and his two young daughters sat in the shade watching the members of parks and recreation department classes perform on the stage. ”We came to check out the event and my girls were drawn to the music and the stage,” he said. “From what I have seen, this is a great event. It is well organized and there are so many hands-on things for the girls to do. I like it a lot and I plan to come back next year and bring more family members.”
Canopies line the “midway” at Englewood’s Aug. 10 Funfest. The annual fair-like event drew a big crowd to watch the entertainment, visit the booths and take part in the activities. englewood herald

Bennet tours immigrant center ‘Gang of Eight’ used Littleton program as a national model By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colorado, stopped by Littleton’s Bemis Public Library, home of the Littleton Immigrtant Resource Center, on Aug. 6. Bennet and the so-called “Gang of Eight” used the center as a model for part of the immigration-reform bill that passed the Senate in June. “This is a great example of how to do it right,” said Bennet. He met with volunteers, students, mentors and lots of people who keep the program ticking. One of those was Ikbal Maardni, a Syrian woman who came to Colorado in 2004. She earned citizenship in 2012 with help from LIRC and still works with its volunteers to improve her English. She enjoyed the library setting so much that she volunteered there for seven years and became a paid employee two years ago. Bennet asked her how she ended up in Littleton. “I love everything,” she said. “The weather, trees, everything is green — it’s not in my country. And the people are very nice, especially the people who work here.” Mayor Debbie Brinkman said LIRC staff has worked very hard to help Maardni and
Castle Rock
other newcomers feel at home. “Welcoming them and assisting them in their assimilation makes a lot more sense than making them feel isolated,” she said. “We need to integrate people into our country,” agreed Bennet. “We are a nation of immigrants, and a nation that subscribes to the rule of law.” Bennet’s bill seeks to provide upward of $100 million in federal support for local programs such as LIRC. They’ll be essential to ensuring the success of other aspects of the law, he said, like the requirement to learn English. “You can require it, but if you don’t actually have programs in place to teach English, you’re not going to succeed,” said Bennet. Tim Nimz, library director, said such national attention on LIRC is a great boon as it seeks to sustain itself, especially as a service not normally offered by municipalities. “That’s, I think, a real compliment to what’s happening with the program and the priorities of the community,” he said. LIRC grew out of work done during the 2004 Littleton Community Retreat, which brings together citizens to brainstorm topics of interest and emerge with a common purpose. The theme that year was “Welcoming and Involving New Americans.” “I became concerned that if we didn’t reach out to new people, we could end up as a divided, we/they community,” said Susan Thornton, an LCR organizer.

Local woman helps Nicaraguan children Feist wants youths to have brighter future By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com
worked for many years with Project Cure, a Greenwood Village-based organization supplying medical equipment to developing countries. She and her husband lived in the Columbine Country Club area until they moved to Highlands Ranch. She was active in the Littleton Rotary Club for about eight years and was the club treasurer for a couple years. She said volunteers, including a recent group from Virginia and one from Cherry Hills Community Church in Highlands Ranch, came to Nicaragua to assist with the projects helping the local residents. “I try to help by those who come to us
on mission trips by arranging accommodations and meals for them. I also help the group by identifying schools and churches that can use their help making repairs or painting the facility. The members on the mission trips also bring clothes and toys for the children and make up food baskets for needy families,” Feist said. “The visits accomplish a lot of work but it isn’t all work because we pick up children from orphanages and take them to places like a water park, the zoo or the museum. We end the day with a pizza feast.”

She said 12 students graduated from the program, and now those young women are earning incomes by making good quality baby clothes, handbags and aprons that are sold on the local market to residents as well as to tourists. Another project supported by families from Highlands Ranch and the Christian Academy in Norfolk, Va., is the Suzie Syke Clinic in El Crucero. Feist said the clinic provides medical and dental care to the people of the poor village. The clinic also had a feeding program, providing meals for more than 60 children every Saturday. Helping others isn’t new to Feist, as she

Three years ago, Jean Feist made the decision to move from Highlands Ranch to a neighborhood in Managua, Nicaragua, to work on projects designed to help young people in that country. “Things are difficult for young Nicaraguans,” she said in an interview in Managua. “Only a minority of children go to or beyond the sixth grade. I feel education is the only thing that will mean a brighter future for young Nicaraguans. The first challenge is having children develop a desire to learn because, for so long, so many Nicaraguans have not valued education.” She currently works with Fundacion Cristiana Cuenta Conmigo, an organization that has a mission to provide education projects that give young Nicaraguans the tools to build a better life. Feist currently is working with a number of people to establish an institute to offer secondary education to Nicaraguan students in areas like computer skills, accounting and English, to help them secure meaningful jobs that currently are unfilled because of a lack of qualified applicants. She said a successful example of what vocational education can do is the sewing project in the village of El Crucero that she worked on. The program was established to help single mothers with no job or skills develop a way to earn a living. “We provided day care for the children of the students who attended classes three days a week for three hours per day for eight weeks,” Feist said. “In class, the women learned to maintain the treadle sewing machines and operate them.”

Mainstreet mainstay Jose’s to close Restaurant has been a Littleton favorite for 47 years By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Phyllis and Jose Trujillo are ready to rest. The family announced last week that they will soon serve the final meal in their Main Street restaurant, Jose’s, after 47 years of devoted care to the building, the business, the family recipes and the community. “After a great deal of thought, it is our decision to slow down after this September,” they wrote in a letter to friends and family. “Phyllis and I, as well as our daughters, Teri and Chris, have built our business as a point of destination and a Littleton landmark. We’re proud to have fed generations of families here in the city we love.” Behind the straightforward letter is a host of conflicting emotions for the Trujillos. They speak of a burden being lifted, of looking forward to traveling. Mrs. Trujillo would like to see the East Coast in autumn; Mr. Trujillo wants to ride the Mississippi River in a paddleboat. They both would like to see some festivals around the state other than Western Welcome Week for a change — in Palisade, perhaps. “Other people get to retire, why can’t we?” wondered daughter Chris Slinkard, who has grown children of her own. “The
grandkids grew up here. It’s been our life. If I didn’t have Mom and Dad, there’s no way I could do it. I need the support they give.” Still, it’s been a difficult decision for them, one made with tears and some trepidation, they admit. “That’s the thing that will really hurt me, is if they take that mural down,” said Mr. Trujillo. Painted in 1976 by then-struggling artist Jose Zamora, Mr. Trujillo says it’s a composite of small-town Main Streets from days gone by. “It’s really an attention-getter,” he said. “Wherever you sit, the road is leading to you.” Their plan is to sell the building, but not the business. They hope it will remain a restaurant, a place they can enjoy visiting for a margarita themselves and perhaps continue their Wednesday-night family gatherings. “The building is going to have to live on its own two feet like I did,” said Mr. Trujillo. “The economy, it’s hit everybody. We just want to get out of here while we’re ahead of the game.” Asked to name his proudest business accomplishment, Mr. Trujillo, who twice served on city council, said it’s that he’s remained consistent and true to his family recipes. “It means a lot to people,” said Mrs. Trujillo, slipping her hand over his. “But I think you should be so proud of going into the

Photo by Jennifer Smith business not knowing anything, and you had your own place by the time you were in your 30s.” Mr. Trujillo gives credit to Evelyn Hudson for that. While a student at Littleton High School, he worked for her at Country Kitchen, the large log building that is now the Inn at Hudson Gardens. They did everything in house, he said, which is pretty much how Jose operates —
grinding meat and preparing everything fresh every day. After some military duty and a stint at Martin Marietta, he and Phyllis, his highschool sweetheart, decided to start their own restaurant. “Once Evelyn gave me her blessing, I said, ‘Well, that’s good,’ ” remembers Mr. Trujillo. “She was a great mentor.”

opinions / yours and ours
Circumstances change, but character shouldn’t Stuff happens, right? I mean, when we least expect change, it happens. Sometimes we are caught off-guard by awesome and wonderfully unexpected good news. And when that does happen, we never really have to worry about how we respond or react because in most cases we are smiling and enjoying the moment. And then there are those other times, when we least expect it, that our world gets turned upside-down in a flash. Have you ever been there, cruising along based on plans, commitments and expectations, and then all of sudden … WHAM … right between the eyes we get hit with a curve ball? Stuff happens, and it happens to all of us at some time or another. The difference is how we actually respond to the immediate shift in our course. Our character can be found in how we respond when faced with challenges or changes, especially when they come upon us out of the blue. If you have ever been faced with a sudden change or shift,
or maybe even if you are experiencing it right now, I want to share a simple philosophy with you that may help. I call this the “Cadence of Change,” and the “cadence” acronym stands for: Communication goes both ways, and in times of change we need to make sure we have expressed ourselves clearly and that we understand what is being shared; miscommunication often makes change worse. Authority means we have to stay in control; we are in charge of how we respond or
differently and see things through objective and productive eyes, instead of being anchored to the past. Character means that whatever happens, we handle ourselves in a respectful way, never yielding or compromising who we are to the circumstances that surround us as the craziness of change happens. Excellence — In times of change and growth, the watchword should be excellence. If we strive for perfection we will often miss the mark, but when we pursue excellence we will impact change, truly impact change for the better. How is your cadence when it comes to change? The world is constantly changing, and I would love to hear all about how you handle it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when your “Cadence of Change” improves, it will really be a better than good week.

Hardball topics are mostly out of my league I have written some hardball columns, but invariably I throw them away. I have written about guns, politicians, Al Sharpton, abortion, same-sex marriages, and even about rodeos, but I am never satisfied afterward. Maybe it’s because I know there is nothing I can say that will make any difference. I might affect a handful of readers, but everyone else has made up their mind, or isn’t listening. When I heard that part of the state wanted to leave the state, I realized that I don’t really know Colorado. I know I live in a very sophisticated county. I now know that there are many very unsophisticated counties, and that the locals are perfectly happy with that, living partly in the 19th century. And they’re not perfectly happy with the rest of us. I don’t think they have our disparity in New Hampshire. The governor can give one-size-fits-all speeches. Hickenlooper has to be mindful of what goes on in Denver and Boulder, and Rico and Brush too. There’s another reason why I have thrown away hardball columns. Like I said, I am never satisfied afterward, and there’s more to it than that. I don’t feel good. I think I am intelligent and objective, but when I see what others believe and do, I grind my teeth and feel it’s best to keep some things to myself, and leave those topics to commentators who can sleep at night after what they have expressed during the day. I acknowledge that most of the time I am a softball writer. And half of the time,
react. If we allow other people or circumstances to dictate how the changes surrounding us impact our demeanor, we will never be in a position to maintain control. Decisions or lack of decisions often leave us paralyzed, and instead of taking action, we leave the decisions to others and again find ourselves being directed or driven by the motives of someone else. In times of change, it is critical to be in control of our own decisions. Expectations properly set are expectations that have a better chance of being realized. Many times our emotions and subsequent actions or reactions stem from misleading ourselves from the beginning. Stretching ourselves through dreams and goals are awesome, and realistic expectations are the foundation that ground us during times of change. New Paradigm — The definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over and expecting different results. All of us should be open and willing to think
On July 1 of this year, Congress’ partisan gridlock and inability to come together for the sake of the American people was on full display when it allowed the rates for subsidized Stafford loans for college students to double from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent without any legislative remedy. This comes at a time when tuition rates are rising uncontrollably. In fact, over the last 10 years tuition rates have far outpaced inflation. During that time the economy has experienced an average inflation rate of 2.5 percent while the average annual tuition increase at a four-year public university has been double that at 5.2 percent. College seniors today are graduating with an average student loan of $27,000. On May 23, I supported H.R. 1911, the Bipartisan Student Loan Certainty Act of 2013, when it was passed in the House. H.R. 1911 added stability to educational loans in a fiscally responsible way by fixing the rate to the 10-year Treasury note. However, once the bill passed the House and was sent over to the Senate, certain senators on the other side of the aisle made unreasonable demands that not only went contrary to the president’s stated objectives, but were fiscally irresponsible. After months of partisan wrangling within the Senate, last week the House of Representatives passed, with my support, the Senate amendment to H.R. 1911. I am pleased the Senate agreed with our approach that will give students the clarity and security they need while balancing

I am up to no great good, writing about wordplay and coffee babies. If you drink Frappuccinos you are a coffee baby. There is one topic that I write about frequently that isn’t softball, and whenever I do, that’s when I receive the most responses. If I were to write that I was for or against guns, I would hear from both sides. You love them or you hate them. But no one — with very disturbing exceptions — doesn’t like animals, and especially our pets. I don’t know the first thing about moose, but I admire them. I always want to know the outcome of a bear that has wandered into town. I wrote about the Running of the Bulls, and my mailbox was full. That was a tough one to write, because it’s almost impossible to write anything worth reading when you are so angry you begin to preach, and I am against preaching, even by preachers.

the duty of Congress to be good stewards of taxpayer money. The final legislation, supported by the majority of the House and Senate, moves all new student loans (except Perkins loans) to a market-based interest rate while allowing interest rates to be reset once a year. Interest rates would be set using the following formulas: Undergraduate Stafford Loans (both subsidized and unsubsidized) will be based on the 10-year Treasury note (which on August 1 was 2.74 percent) plus 2.05 percent, capped at 8.25 percent. Graduate unsubsidized Stafford loans will be based on the 10-year Treasury note plus 3.6 percent, capped at 9.5 percent, and PLUS loans (both parent and graduate student) will be based on 10-year Treasury note plus 4.6 percent, capped at 10.5 percent.

Former Secret Service agent to talk about JFK Englewood High grad served three presidents By Ryan Boldrey
rboldrey@ourcoloradonews.com Jerry Blaine has been a lot of things in his life — a sailor, a student, and a Secret Service agent assigned to three U.S. presidents, including John F. Kennedy. It’s the three years he spent with Kennedy that were documented in his New York Times best-seller “The Kennedy Detail,” and in the upcoming film due out in 2014. The 1950 Englewood High School graduate and Korean War veteran has spent a lot of time discussing his book since it was released in 2010, but says he has just one presentation left in him. Because of his local roots, he will give that presentation to the Highlands Ranch Historical Society at 7 p.m. Aug. 19 at Southridge Recreation Center, 4800 McArthur Ranch Road in Highlands Ranch. The PowerPoint presentation will be followed with a question-and-answer period as well as a book signing. The talk, he said, will focus on the difference — from the Secret Service perspective — of the Eisenhower presidency and the Kennedy presidency, the Bay of Pigs, Cuban Missile Crisis, and the personal relationship he developed with the Kennedy family. He will also talk about the differences in the Secret Service between then and now. Blaine, who was hired by the service in 1959 after earning a business degree from the University of Colorado, was the first agent assigned to the Kennedy detail and joined the president-elect in Palm Beach, Fla., the day after the 1960 election. “Being the first agent on regular detail with him, I had quite a bit of interaction with him. I had a lot more after he hit me in the head with a golf ball,” he said. “If he wasn’t tied up in the affairs of state, he would stop by the post and shoot the breeze. He was very personal that way.” And while Kennedy was extremely per-

the federal student loan structure. As I alluded to earlier, this plan is similar to one supported by the president in his budget proposal. He agrees with the House that it is imperative Congress remove itself from the annual debate on interest rates so students can focus on getting an education rather than worrying about politicians in Washington, D.C. I hope President Obama acts quickly and approves the proposal that aids our students struggling in this economy. Congress has been plagued with gridlock, so I am very pleased that Republicans and Democrats were able to come together to do something good for students while at the same time securing our future eco-

But when it comes to the heartbeats at our feet, I am on high alert for their respect and love — or for disrespect. When I adopted Smitty, his face was a
Jerry Blaine rides on the right rear foot of President John F. Kennedy’s limousine through the streets of Berlin in June 1963. Blaine, a 1950 Englewood High School graduate, served five years in the secret service from 1959-1964. The author of the book, “The Kennedy Detail,” he will talk about his experiences Aug. 19 with the Highlands Ranch Historical Society. Courtesy photo sonal with Blaine and the other agents, one thing Blaine won’t discuss in the presentation and does not address in his book is the personal affairs of the president — something that has been heavily documented, and not all of which Blaine says is anywhere near close to the truth. “A lot of it is exaggerated, including the Marilyn Monroe thing, which is blown way out of proportion,” he said. “It didn’t define the Kennedy administration.” While some of what may be holding Blaine back is an unwritten code between agents never to discuss First Family matters openly, he said he was compelled to write
“We were always concerned about a sniper, because he was so vulnerable,” Blaine said. “He was so unpredictable he was predictable as far as going into crowds, and he loved the open-top limousine in parade situations. ...

nomic growth. However, we need to do more. When we subsidize student loan interest rates, we are investing in our future by sending highly trained and productive citizens out into the workforce and entrusting them with the levers of our economy. If we want to ensure a vibrant economic future, I hope that Republicans and Democrats can come together with the same spirit of bipartisanship that successfully addressed the loan rates and finally tackle the other national problems like debt, deficits, as well as entitlement and tax reform in the same cooperative manner.

That’s why I wrote the book,” he said. “We knew from the day after Kennedy was elected we were working under a different circumstance than we were working under with Eisenhower.” Blaine, who saw the president for the last time when he left Fort Worth for Dallas the day he was shot, will address the assassination, and said he is happy to answer questions surrounding all of the theories that have circled it for the last 50 years.

Residents celebrate National Night Out Gatherings range from block parties to ice cream socials By Tom Munds

The cloudy skies appeared to promise rain Aug. 6, but Mother Nature held off and few if any drops fell on the more than two dozen National Night Out gatherings held in Englewood. One of the earliest to start was in the 3400 block of South Broadway and was promoted by the Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce and sponsored by Ted’s Custom Clothes, the Breakfast Queen and A and A Cycles. Local merchants, residents and people walking by stopped to have a free bite to eat. Mayor Randy Penn was in attendance for a short time as were a number of members of the police department, including Sgt. Tim Englert, Officer Kevin Sage, Commander Sam Watson and Tony Arnoldy, police community relations specialist. The police made a point to greet and talk to people as Arnoldy urged them to move quickly so they could try to visit all the National Night Out events in the city. For example, they stopped by the block party in the 3100 block of South Humbolt Street. About 5:30 p.m., neighbors began gathering and bringing dishes for the annual National Night Out event and potluck dinner hosted by Lee Sanchez and his wife. “We have been hosting the night out party for six or seven years. There is a lot to do like getting the city permit to block off the street. But it isn’t all that much work and
we always have fun putting on the event,” Sanchez said. “We like to have this event so we can greet friends and meet new people in the neighborhood.” Aaron Doxey was one of their new neighbors. “I have been here a little more than a year but this is the first night out event I have attended,” he said. “I think this event is awesome. I live here but everyone is coming and going so we just usually smile and wave. Tonight I am getting to meet the people from the neighborhood and it is good to know these aren’t just empty houses. Also, the food is very good.” This is the 29th year the National Association of Town Watch has sponsored and promoted the event it calls the nation’s night out against crime. The program’s goal is to urge people to come out of their homes, meet their neighbors and strengthen local anti-crime efforts. Events were as varied as the people hosting them. For example, while Kim Pittman had six people accept his invitation to join him on the patio for homemade peach ice cream, a few blocks away there was a live band, volunteers cooking hot dogs and hamburgers, an inflatable bounce house and more than 50 people at the Englewood Bible Church. “It is so nice Englewood Bible Church puts on this event each year,” Eva Moss said as she stood in line for a hot dog, hot off the grill. “We live in the neighborhood but we don’t go to church here. That doesn’t seem to matter, as everyone always welcomes us like we were dear friends. It is a nice event and we appreciate the church putting it on.”

In light of some bumps this summer with that whole close-the-control tower scare, things are likely to get much smoother at Centennial Airport, especially on one of its three runways. The Federal Aviation Administration recently awarded a $5.8 million grant to the Arapahoe County Public Airport Authority for what it calls airport development and noise program implementation. Airport Executive Director Robert Olislagers calls it runway replacement. “Our grant will allow us to reconstruct the crosswind runway, starting the first week in September,” said Olislagers who hopes to have the project done in approximately 60 days. Notices sent to local pilots state all of the existing pavement be removed and replaced with new asphalt. The crosswind runway, also known as Runway 10/20, referring to its compass direction, is 75 feet wide and 4,800 feet long, and according to Olislagers, while it is still safe, is in need of complete reconstruction.
“Of course, I’m never gonna argue with anyone about a brand new runway,” said Nate Duehr, a pilot who has a plane based in Centennial. “The crosswind runway is really helpful and keeping the smaller aircraft out of the way of the bigger business jets who burn far more fuel waiting to take off. In the long term, I think it is a great investment for the airport, if for nothing more than alleviating traffic backups.” Funding within the grant will also help implement an aircraft noise monitoring system to help pinpoint trouble spots around the immediate airport area. The news comes on the heels of a summertime struggle between Centennial and the FAA after federal sequestration threatened to close overnight control tower operations. Olislagers pleaded Centennial’s case to the feds citing potential safety issues and eventually the FAA reconsidered it decision on Centennial, as well as many other towers on its closure list. Funding for the runway rehab project comes from the FAA’s Airport Improvement Program, which is entirely self-funded through the excise taxes charged on aviation and jet fuel. No local tax dollars will be used for this project.

Residents propose ballot issue Voters could decide on city designation of park land By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com The Englewood City Council is tentatively scheduled to act during the Aug. 19 meeting to determine whether or not to place the resident-initiated issue regarding city designation of park on the November ballot. Lou Ellis, city clerk, told the city council at the Aug. 12 study session that residents collected the required number of signatures to place the issue that would change the municipal code to include official designation of park property within Englewood on the November ballot. The proposal lists the sites to be designated parks and requires a vote of the peo-
ple for the city to sell any park property. The city properties listed in the proposed ballot issues included Baker, Barde, Bates-Logan, Belleview, Centennial, Clarkson, Cushing, Depot, Duncan, Emerson, Hosanna, Jason, Miller Fields, Romans and Rotolo. “The city council has an option when dealing with resident-initiated ballot issues,” said Dan Brotzman, city attorney. “The council can approve the proposal and place the issue on the ballot. However, the city council has the option approve the exact ballot-issue wording as changes to the city municipal code so the issue doesn’t have to go on the ballot.” However, he pointed out there is the concern that two of the listed properties, the depot and Hosanna, are not owned by the city. “The depot is being sold to a private owner and the Hosanna complex belongs to the school district,” the city attorney

said. “If the council chooses to adopt the language of the proposed ballot issue as an ordinance to change city codes, the two locations the city doesn’t own can be handled by explanations in the `where as’ wording in the ordinance.” Staff was asked it all the city-owned locations were officially designated as parks. “I don’t think Miller Fields is designated as a park. It’s just always been called Miller Fields,” Gerald Black, parks and recreation director said. “Also, I am not sure if the Clarkson and the Emerson sites have been designated as parks.” He said staff will research records to determine which of the properties have officially been designated as parks.
Mayor Randy Penn asked for a consensus on action on the issue but there was no clear majority. So, Brotzman said his office will draft the proposed ordinance as a ballot question but wording it in a way the council can adopt it on first reading as a change to the city codes so it isn’t necessary to place it on the ballot. He added that the wording will deal with the issues of the two sites the city doesn’t own. The issue of designation of parks is one of the two issues residents sought to place on the ballot. The second issue dealt with a change to the city charter that would change term limits from the existing three terms to two terms for city council and would place term limits on the office of municipal judge.

Young Voices of Colorado getting permanent location By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com After 23 years, and 10 different homes, Young Voices of Colorado will soon move into a permanent space of its own. Founder and artistic director Jena Dickey of Littleton spoke about her long search. The youth choir organization has been renting space from churches, but the group has grown to a point where it is too big and wants to use the rented space for too many hours for a church arrangement to be satisfactory, she says. At first, she thought they could rent a larger commercial space, but the code requirements involved to accommodate 200 children — classified as an educational use — plus the need for high ceilings, made that plan impractical. “Even Pavarotti couldn’t sing with a low acoustic tile ceiling.” And adequate restrooms were also an issue. It meant gutting a space and shaping it to specific needs. After much searching, they found a 4,400-square-foot space in an office park development at 99 Inverness Drive East, #150. It’s still in Arapahoe County and locat-
ed near Interstate 25 for south metro area students as well as those who come from a distance. (Green Mountain, Westminster, Strasburg, Larkspur …) Closing was May 6 and construction is underway on what was once a welding school. Dickey very much hopes to be in by Labor Day. The group made a substantial down payment and arranged a loan for the balance. Dickey says she had hoped to do the necessary work for about $350,000, but with bathroom, ADA and fire issues, it will be closer to $500,000 when completed. (Supporters can buy a square foot of space for $100 — “and we may sell piano keys too,” Dickey said.) There will be a 50-foot-by-30-foot choral room plus a smaller 700-square-foot choral space. Three offices, reception space, copy room, storage, two bathrooms and a break room are included, designed by architect Earl Anderson. Littleton Mayor Debbie Brinkman, who is an interior designer by trade, has been advising on decorating and as we write, Dickey carries a car trunk filled with the chosen color swatches, carpet, tile, flooring samples, cabinet doors and more. The large choir room will have a wall painted in YVA’s signature purple, the smaller one will have a red wall, and offices will have green, while the carpet reflects all three, plus neutral tones. In the meantime, auditions for younger children were finalized recently and Dick-
ey is excited to contemplate a return to her first love: music education. “We hope to develop world citizens,” she says, proud of the accomplishments of her graduates, who have learned focus and discipline through music. The choirs are called Treble Makers (second- to fourth-graders); Cantus; Signature; VoiceMale (boys with changed or changing voices); and Concert Choir. They give two concerts each year at the University of Denver’s Newman Center and collaborate with other musical organizations in additional performances, such as Littleton Symphony and Littleton Chorale. In the summer, YVC hosts other children’s choruses from across the country in the “Sing a Mile High Festival,” where kids work with a team of musical educators and present a concert where they sing separately and jointly. The staff members for the 501(c)(3) organization include Dickey, Chrys Harris, Margie Camp, Paul Smith, accompanists Jane MacQueen and Gretchen Timmer, Anna Larsen and Teddi Harring. Kathryn Ake is president of the board of directors. Dickey likes to share a quote from great conductor/composer Leonard Bernstein: “It will be the artists, the feelers and thinkers who will ultimately save us — those who can articulate, educate, defy, insist and shout the biggest of dreams.” Information about Young Voices of Colorado is found at: youngvoices.org, 303797-7464.
`Steel Magnolias’ on stage at hotel By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com “Steel Magnolias” a tale of strong Southern women in the fictional town of Chiquapin, La., in the 1980s, was originally written as a short story by Robert Harling, who was grieving the death of a sister. The play came next. (OffBroadway in 1987, movie in 1989, Broadway in 2005, with Dolly Parton in the Truvy role). Cast with strong characters, it has established a place as a fa-
vorite for local theater groups, has played around the world and is the 2013 selection for the annual summer fundraiser for Senior Housing Options, a nonprofit that provides housing for about 500 adults in Colorado. It is presented through Aug. 24 in the lobby at the historic Barth Hotel in LoDo, one of 14 SHO residences, with a group of allstar actors. Truvy’s beauty shop is the location for most of the action — a spot where women of many types gather for hair care, gossip and wisecracking
If you go “Steel Magnolias” by Robert Harling plays through Sept. 24 at the historic Barth Hotel, 1514 17th St., Denver. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays.

free advice from the proprietor. Owner Truvy will be played by Rhonda Brown, who recently starred solo as Molly Ivins in
“Red Hot Patriot: the Kick Ass Wit of Molly Ivins.” Former Broadway actor Billie McBride will return to this stage as Ouiser, the town curmudgeon, and Devon James will play Truvy’s assistant, Annelle. Patty Figel will portray eccentric millionaire Miss Clairee and Rachel Fowler will be M’Lynn, whose daughter, Shelby, has just married as the play opens. Adrian Egolf plays Shelby, a diabetic who decides to risk a pregnancy.
One Trader Joe’s coming to Colorado was fantastic news for this California girl. Two put me over the moon, especially since it was announced No. 2 would be located on Eighth and Colorado near my Capitol Hill abode. Now, the California-based specialty grocery store I grew up on is adding a third store in Greenwood Village. The Denver Post reported Trader Joe’s has signed a lease at the Cherry Hills Marketplace at 5901 S. University Blvd., at the intersection with East Orchard Road. The first two stores — in Denver and on Boulder’s Twenty Ninth Street mall — are scheduled to open in 2014, as will the Greenwood Village store.
Off the air
Bertha Lynn has been one of my favorite on-air personalities since I arrived in Denver in 1993. She is the sweetest, most generous human being. Now that she’s leaving Denver’s 7, viewers from Golden to Highlands Ranch and Westminster to Littleton are losing a truly wonderful asset on the air. But good for her! She’s been able to reinvent herself in a new occupation. After reporting the news for more than 30 years for KMGH-Channel 7, Lynn is leaving the newsroom to become executive director of the Children’s Diabetes Foundation in Denver. “I’m writing a new chapter,” Lynn said via email. “I’m so grateful to my past and present colleagues. I’ve loved bringing home the news to the people of Colorado since 1976 and now I’m ready to apply, in a different arena, the skills I’ve learned as a communicator and in the boardrooms of the many nonprofit organizations I’ve served over the years. I’ll be working with a wonderful group of people at a respected organization. I’m thrilled!” In a 7News press release, Lynn said, “To be tapped by Barbara Davis and the Board of the Children’s Diabetes Foundation to carry on their work helping sick children is a dream come true — allowing me to meet new challenges while continuing to serve in Colorado. The people of Denver and Colorado have been very kind and generous to me as they watched me grow up. Colorado remains my home and I look forward to engaging with the community for even greater support in our battle against life-threatening diabetes.” 7News news director Jeff Harris said Lynn’s “career at 7News is an inspiration to so many. But, more than anything else, Bertha has worked tirelessly to improve our community. For this, we are grateful and not a bit surprised in her decision to lead this wonderful organization.” Lynn, one of Denver’s most recognized and honored broadcast journalists, has been reporting news to Coloradans since 1976 when she began with KBTV (now KUSA-Channel 9) as an anchor and reporter. In 1984, she moved to 7News where she has anchored and reported for nearly every station newscast. Lynn signed off Aug. 9 in her final 7News telecast.

Tragedy, romance — and Colorado scenery Englewood author enjoys scouting Rocky Mountains By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com The recently published “Journey to Sand Castle” by Leslee Breene of Englewood actually describes several journeys — that interweave three broken lives. First-grade teacher Tess Cameron, recovering from a difficult divorce, was teaching in New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina struck. As the book opens, she is helping out in her school, which has become a shelter. Breene, a member of Colorado Romance Writers, and active in the Women Writing the West (WWW) organization, is a Denver native. She also writes short fiction, winning a WWW second place in 2012 for her story, “Pueblo Dancer.” She says she hopes to publish a collection of short stories in the future. She attended the University of Denver, received a Denver Fashion Group Scholarship and graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York. For several years, she worked in San Francisco as a newspaper fashion illustrator. Her new book follows “Leadville Lady” (2006); “Hearts on the Wind” (2008); and “Starlight Rescue” (2011). When she’s not writing, she enjoys scouting in the Rockies for book settings with her husband, and delving into area history. She enjoys meeting with book club groups to talk about her writing. Her story continues as Tess Cameron, who had determined to be carefree, commits instead to caring for a beautiful little biracial orphan named Crystal, daughter of a fellow teacher who perished. She hopes to reunite the child with a grandfather in the San Luis Valley, in Sand Castle, who had been estranged from the
Leslee Breene, Linda Womack and Nancy Oswald at a book autographing session. Courtesy photo child’s mother. He initially shows racial prejudice and wants nothing to do with her and his slow change is another journey. Breene develops an interesting character in the grandfather and includes nice details about that beautiful, historic part of
Colorado — complete with the sounds of a flight of sandhill cranes one evening. Tess takes a cooking and office job with a widowed outfitter, Grant Wilder, to support herself and Crystal — and the reader can predict where that will lead. But his and
Tess’ emotional journeys are thoughtfully recorded en route, including details of dayto-day ranch life, local people, scenic landscapes, horses and a violent snowstorm. Information about the author is at: lesleebreene.com.

y Orange behemoth joined by siblings Coleman enthusiasts united after last year’s WWW parade By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Vince Cissell, Buck Kamphausen and the name Coleman go way back to when, says Cissell, “Littleton was the country-bumpkin side of town.” Cissell agreed to buy Columbine Ambulance from Kamphausen, his childhood buddy, when Kamphausen got drafted, and he still owns it today. And now Cissell is tending to another matter Kamphausen got rolling - literally. Cissell ended up with Kamphausen’s behemoth orange Coleman snowplow in his storage building after last year’s Western Welcome Week parade, where it made its homecoming debut. The Coleman is a Littleton native, born at the Coleman Motor Company on Nevada Street downtown. The company was founded in 1916 by Harleigh Holmes, who some say invented front-wheel and four-wheel drive, although it’s a matter of great debate. As a kid, Kamphausen lived in Bow Mar near Fritz Noble, who had a large stake in the company. Kamphausen, Littleton High School Class of ‘57, spent large chunks of his youth mowing Noble’s lawn and visiting the plant. The company shut down in 1987. But about four years ago, Kamphausen’s sister, Dana Dunbar, found the orange beast sit-
Vince Cissell gets the behemoth Coleman snowplow fired up with a little help from Jim Hatfield. The two are part of Littleton’s new Coleman Club, which will ride several Colemans in the Grand Parade on Main Street Aug. 17. Photo by Jennifer Smith ting in a field near Minturn, Colo., full of elk antlers and petunias. Before it retired, it worked hard for the state clearing narrow mountain roads. Dunbar called her brother right away, and he told her to get back there pronto. So she tracked down the owner of Battle Mountain Trading Company, where it had
been resting for 30 years or so, and bought it that night. There was still air in the tires, and Kamphausen’s protégé, Josh Voss, had it running in a day and a half. By creating such a splash during Western Welcome Week 2012, it stirred fond memories in a bunch of other Coleman fanatics.
Now, Cissell, Jim Hatfield, Ken Kafka and 20 or so others have formed an official Coleman Club that will field about eight vehicles in the parade Aug. 17. “Some guys play golf, some guys chase women, some guys rebuild trucks,” explains Cissell. Hatfiled says they’re a loose affiliation of Coleman truck owners and enthusiasts under the auspices of the American Truck Historical Society. He doesn’t own one himself, but he did make an amazing find - the last vehicle ever produced by Coleman. It was a prototype American Coleman Railway Truck Inspection Vehicle that looks like no other vehicle the company ever made. It was still sitting in a shipping crate in a former Coleman warehouse in Sheridan, so Hatfield stopped in to visit with the new owner of the building. “He got it out of the container and just kind of caught the fever and got it road ready,” said Hatfield. Kamphausen’s dream for the snowplow was for it to live at Littleton Museum, joined by as many Colemans as can be found. But Cissell says museum officials wanted to keep it outside, so for now it lives on his family farm near Broadway and Orchard Cissell says Coleman’s are a unique vehicle born in a unique town that used to make lots of stuff - think Heckethorn supply, Electron foundry, Red Comet fire extinguishers. “So when you think back, you think about the history of the country, the little towns had the manufacturing, and that’s where things went on,” he said.

ACC hosts WWW events College campus is site for events ranging from breakfast to races By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com The fall semester hasn’t started by there were a lot of cars in the Arapahoe Community College parking lot Aug. 11 as the school hosted a variety of Western Welcome Week activities. Things got started early and there were long lines at the annual pancake breakfast.
The kitchen even moved outside this year. A short distance away, there were a collection of old-time games from bean bag toss to stilt walking. More than 100 parents, their children and the child’s mount signed up for the annual Bruce Wolf Stick Horse Stampede. Penny Smith said she has been coming to Western Welcome Week since she was a little girl and now she brings her two boys to the activities every year because the boys have so much fun. Western Welcome Week activities are scheduled throughout the week with the finale on Aug. 17 with a host of events including the grand parade.

Pirates golfers take to the links Englewood team is tuning up for Aug. 19 season opener By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Englewood, along with other high school golfers, began practice Aug. 5 a full week before other prep fall sports team can take to the field. “We had a good first day,” Pirates coach Brian DeHerrera said. “We have six golfers out right now and senior Spencer Harmon said he’ll join us soon.”
The coach said the practices are important, as the Pirates will open competition by hosting a league tournament Aug. 19 at Broken Tee Golf Course at Englewood. “That will be an early test for us,” the coach said. “We finished third in the four-team league last year. We have three returning players and, if they play well, will make us stronger this season. I expect the top two teams in the league will again be Fort Morgan and Elizabeth.” This year, Englewood returning lettermen include senior Nate Medina, senior Austin Trail, senior Spencer Harmon and sophomore Mason Stepanich. Medina has qualified for state two of the last three years. The coach said he is looking
good and hitting the ball well. “I didn’t play a lot of golf this summer but I think I am playing better now,” Medina said at the Aug. 8 practice. “I played 18 holes with golf professional Jim Hardy. He tweaked my swing. It is a change and I am getting used to it, and when I do, I think it will really help my game.” He said he wants to improve because his goal is to again qualify for state and, this time, play well in the tournament Trail has improved his score every year and the coach said he is working to continue that trend. Harmon played with the team last year so he has some experience in league play and is working to improve his game. Stepanich was a beginner last season
but the coach said he worked to improve his game and earned the No. 4 spot on the roster by the end of the season. The other three golfers new to the sport are senior Colin Owens and freshmen Jonathan Schroeder and Jerome Doherty. Both freshmen have played at least a little golf, the coach said. No handicap system is used in high school golf. Each team can enter five golfers in a regular-season match with the scores of the top four finishers added together to determine the team score. Again this year, the Englewood team plans a fundraising golf tournament to help pay expenses. This year, the tournament will be Sept. 14 at Broken Tee Golf Course at Englewood.
Cross country team battles small roster Two-sport athletes may help bolster slim ranks By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Bill Ambron, Englewood High School cross country coach, said once again this year there are not a lot of athletes signed up for cross country and he is hoping more students will join the team. “Cross country participation has been down for the last few years and, again this year, we don’t have very many kids signed up for the team. Part of that may be the late start of school this year,” he said. “Right now we should be able to field a boys team, but we have two girls signed up for sure, so we’ll need more athletes if we are to have enough runners to meet the requirements to compete as a team.” The Pirates held the first official practice Aug. 12 and will practice each day at 4 p.m., meeting at the southeast corner of the field house. Englewood’s first competition of the season will be at 8 a.m. Aug. 24 when they run
in the D’Evelyn Invitational. They also will run in the Warrior Invitational at DeKoevend Park on Aug. 30. Ambron said he expects the top runners for the boys team this season will be Chad Glover, Cole Horan and Mitch McConnell. “Chad, Cole and Mitch all went to the long-distance running camp in Alamosa this year and they agreed what they learned and experienced should help them run better this season,” he said. “We also have several other boys who said they will run with us including a freshman who, if he does as well as expected, could earn a varsity spot.” The coach said so far only two returning letter winners, senior Natalie Pena and junior Shawna Eldridge, have signed up for the girls team. However, assistant coach Stu Howard, said two or three other girls who play volleyball indicated they are planning to also run cross country. A cross country course covers five kilometers, which is 3.1 miles. Each meet is an individual and a team competition. All runners push the pace to finish first

Runners are awarded points based on how they finish. For example, the first-place runner earns one point and the 10th-place runner earns
10 points. A team can enter seven runners but the points earned by the team’s first five finishers are added up to determine the team score, and the team with the lowest score wins the meet.

2013 PREVIEW
Veterans strengthen Pirates softball Coach optimistic about squad with many letter winners By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews. com Coach Dave Chapman predicts this year’s Englewood High School softball team will be stronger and more competitive. “This is primarily the team we put on the field last season except for the two very good players we lost to graduation, shortstop Bree Klipka and second baseman Hayley Lansing,” Chapman said. “They were our up-the-middle defense, played well, and they will be hard to replace. But I feel there are players ready to step forward to fill those vacancies.” The softball team began practice Aug. 12 and played their first game on the road Aug. 16 at Denver North. The Pirates were scheduled to be on the road Aug. 20 at Elizabeth and return home to play their first game on the new softball field Aug. 27 against Weld Central. “This year is a milestone for our softball team because they will be playing home games on a field adjacent to the high school building,” Chapman said. “For our 16 seasons, the girls have had to get on a bus to go to practice or to play a home game at fields around Englewood. Now, the field will be a short walk from the school and that should be a plus for us.” Chapman said the veteranladen team should play solid defense and should hit the ball well.

Teams running on battery power Pitcher-catcher combos make all the difference in high school softball By Jim Benton
jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Most good high school softball teams are built around solid batteries. In other words, the combined effectiveness of a pitcher and catcher. You can’t have one without the other. “If your pitching and catching is solid, you have any kind of decent coaching, you should win more games than you lose, and with a little luck you should win much more than you lose,” said Pon-
derosa coach Toby Tabola. “It starts there,” he continued. “You can’t forget the catcher. You can’t have these great pitchers without a really good person to receive the ball. There have been times where I have not been able to allow a pitcher to throw a particular pitch because it’s too hard for the catcher to handle.” Tabola’s daughter, Caley Mitchell, is head coach at Castle View. “I absolutely believe in the importance of a great pitcher and catcher,” said Mitchell. “If you have a solid hitting team and good defense you may be still able to win games, but you won’t go further than that. The defense can only do so much if you don’t have a pitcher to keep girls off base. “Catchers are just as important. Your pitcher can be great, but if you don’t have a catcher that

“Everyone in the lineup hit pretty well last year. Returning letter winners who hit particularly well include Miranda Holman, Matty Smith and Dolly Ostrowsky,” the coach said. “I think we will be strong at the plate up and down the lineup so we should be able to get people on base and get them in to score.” The coach said he also was encouraged by the fact most of the athletes who will be on the team played for the Pirates team this summer that took runner-up honors in the league tournament. Chapman said league play will again be tough this season. He said, like Englewood, Fort Lupton, Weld Central and Vista Peak have just about all their starters back, so all three teams should be competitive and battling for the top spot in the league. “Elizabeth was a seniorheavy team last season, so they will be rebuilding, plus they have a new coach this season so they won’t be quite as strong,” he said. “Skyview will be OK and will battle every game they play.” Chapman said he has 26 girls signed up for softball this season which means the Pirates will field a varsity team and and a junior varsity team. He said Tim Rasmussen, former Elizabeth JV coach, will coach the Pirates JV team this season. He said he is encouraged that nine freshmen signed up to play softball this season and some of them have softball experience.

Solheim Cup: time to tee it up Americans, Europeans set for match play at course in Parker By Jim Benton
jbenton@ourcoloradonews.com Wandering around the Colorado Golf Club trying to find the best location to watch the Solheim Cup could be as difficult as successfully getting out of one of the course’s bunkers. The Solheim Cup, matching 12 of the top women professional golfers from the United States against a dozen of Europe’s top players, will be contested Aug. 16-18 in Parker. Fans want to be sure to be on the first hole to watch the players tee off in the match-play tournament. The first tee is a raucous place to be when players are teeing off because fans from both sides will be yelling, chanting and even singing songs to inspire the respective teams. The Solheim Cup is often called football golf because spectators can yell and scream. The par 4, 428-yard third hole is one that could be tough for the ladies. It is downhill, which results in a forced carry on the second shot off a downhill lie. Holes 14, 15 and 16 could produce a bushel of birdies that might spark comebacks for trailing players. And, any match coming down to the 435-yard, par 4 18th hole could deliver some highlight-reel memories. “The course is going to be firm and fast, which means the ball is going to spend a lot of time on the ground and do a lot of things,” said Colorado Golf

can handle her, you are going to have problems. The catcher commands the field, she needs to be heads-up on every play, as well as be a coach for the pitcher.” Castle View and Ponderosa have two of the league’s top pitchers in the Sabercats’ junior Savannah Heebner and the Mustangs’ Ally Power, also a junior. Heebner won 13 games with 145 strikeouts and a 1.49 earned run average. Power won 14 games last season with 208 strikeouts and a 1.69 ERA. Junior Sarah Carpenter will be Power’s battery-mate after taking over the starting catching duties late last

Club head professional Graham Cliff. Holes on the course will have different setups from session-to-session. “The girls won’t know what to expect,” said Cliff. “They can’t go out and say `this morning I did this.’ The hole is going to be completely different that it was in the morning. They play a hole like No. 2, which is a par 3, it could play 150 yards in the morning and it could play 130 in the afternoon. “We’ve already discussed with the LPGA some setup things for Sunday and other days on some holes just to make them more exciting.” Golf Channel analyst Curt Byrum, who played Colorado Golf Club during the 2010 Senior PGA, says the Wie Parker course that is exposed to the wind is an ideal venue for the Solheim Cup. “Overall it’s going to be a tremendous venue,” said Byrum. “They can do so much with the setup to play to the match play part of this. “No. 14 is one of those holes that they can move the tees up to make that a drivable par 4. So that stretch of 14, 15 and 16 could be real volatile. There are eagle possibilities in that stretch of three holes.” The U.S. team with Brittany Lincicome, Lexi Thompson, Jessica Korda, Gerina Piller and Michele Wie has more long hitters than the Europeans. “If the girls are playing best ball or alternate shot on certain holes if you can have your longest player playing, it could make a difference,” said Cliff.
season. Senior Morgan Trujillo will be behind the plate catching Heebner. Catchers are the team leaders, setting the tone for the team and often calling timeouts to visit with pitchers to avoid a visit to the mound by a coach. “I would say the catcher is the leader on the field,” said Power. “Yeah, you listen to her. It’s very important to have confidence in your catcher. “Talks between my catcher and I are really team decisions. We discuss it and normally agree with the changes. Sarah did her job well last season.” Trujillo admits it is sometime hard for a catcher to be a leader. “In the beginning it was a challenge,” said Trujillo. “Then I realized I was involved in every single play, I’ve really got to step up my leadership role. From that point on, I love doing it.

“That’s the reason Michelle Wie was picked for the team is for her length. “Meg (U.S. captain Mallon) said it best, she can’t leave four or five birdies she thinks Michelle is going to make sitting at home on the couch.” Cliff warns spectators not to leave early and echoed the thoughts of many people that anything can happen in match play. “On 14, 15 and 16 there is no lead that is safe,” he said. “You are not going to be able to coast. People are going to birdie 14, 15 and 16 on a daily basis. A match coming down to 18 is going to be a fabulous hole for the gals playing up the hill with all the spectators. “At the end of the day, the team that putts the best is going to win. It’s the same for any tournament. The greens are really tough and the greens will be really fast.”
“Sometimes girls on your team just hate being told what to do. In reality you are just trying to say `let’s get back on track and we need to come together as a team.’ “Savannah has always been a stud,” continued Trujillo. “She’s getting looked at a lot by big schools. I look at myself and say she couldn’t be where she is today if she didn’t have a catcher. I’m just not talking about me but every other catcher that’s she’s experienced along the way. Without that catcher, she would be pitching to the backstop.” Castle View and Ponderosa are expected to be two of the Continental League’s strongest teams this season. Defending league champion Rock Canyon returns seven starters and the Jaguars are the team to beat. Mountain Vista, Legend and Douglas County should have a say in which team wins the league title.

The closed-course road challenge offered several races throughout the day to accommodate a variety of age groups and skill sets. The afternoon men’s and women’s race packed the streets with spectators that found the event almost as exciting as the racers.
