Council candidates air views in forum Three contenders in contested races appear before voters By Scott Gilbert

sgilbert@ourcoloradonews.com On the first wintry night of the season, in a room filled with the tantalizing smell of barbecue, candidates for Englewood City Council appeared before voters in a Sept. 27 forum at Moe’s Original Bar B Que on South Broadway. The forum was hosted by Englewood Citizens for Open Government, a pro-transparency group, and drew a few dozen attendees. At-large council candidates Scott Gorsky and Steve Yates fielded questions submitted by audience members, as did District 2 council candidate Rita Russell. Russell’s opponent, incumbent Councilwoman Linda Olson, did not attend. Matthew Crabtree of ECOG joined the council contenders before the crowd, representing the “Save Our Parks” ballot measure. The citizen initiative was prompted by the city’s controversial sale of the Englewood Depot, which fetched $30,000. District 4 Councilmember Rick Gillit, seeking re-election with no opponent on the ballot, spoke briefly, following a schedule giving the bulk of the time to voters’ questions in contested matters. “To run unopposed means they didn’t send somebody after you,” said Gillit, who voted against the depot sale. Incoming Englewood School Board members Tena Prange and Jason Sakry kept their appearances limited to introductory remarks. The school board election was called off because no race was contested, and the subsequent death of incumbent candidate Gene Turnbull created a vacancy that the current board is moving to fill.

Also giving brief presentations were Brian Ewert, the school superintendent; Arapahoe County Clerk and Recorder Matt Crane, the county’s chief elections official; and ECOG activist Laurett Barrentine, a former member of city council.

Candidates speak

The forum quickly moved to the main event. Gorsky, the term-limited president of Englewood’s school board, reminisced about the old days at Sport Bowl, the smoky pool hall that long stood at the site where Moe’s is now located. “When the voters speak, I will listen,” he said. When Yates’ turn came, he rapidly focused on the current council’s actions in selling the century-old Englewood Depot, clearly a sore point with many in the audience. “It was a park and our city charter states the people are supposed to vote on that particular issue,” he said. Russell said she had no interest in public office until “things changed about two years ago.” She said there is a lack of fiscal responsibility and leadership on the current council, and said that when she called three councilmembers about city matters, “they dismissed my concerns.” Crabtree, who nearly gained a council seat in a six-way race in 2011, didn’t mince words in blasting the mechanism the council used to sell the depot. The “Save Our Parks” ballot issue, if successful, will give official designation to a list of public areas now treated as parks, clarifying the requirement for a citywide vote on any proposed sale. The recent 5-2 council vote to sell the depot “violated the Englewood city charter” and “exploited a loophole,” Crabtree said. Russell joined Yates in condemning the

City finances discussed

Gorsky, “a big believer in lean practice,” stressed his experience in making difficult budget decisions for Englewood schools, on a night when troubling pictures of the city’s financial condition were a frequent topic. Yates questioned whether the city’s shift toward apartments was financially responsible. He said he’s neither for nor against the apartment plans, but said: “We need to listen to the people, not just some banker.” Russell pointed to the dangers of deficit spending and the need for a balanced budget. “We need to encourage policies that will be business-friendly,” she said, adding that business owners are “really dissed” by the current council. “We need to protect our reserves rather than spend them,” she said. When questioned about the schools’ Forum continues on Page 9

A man is dead and a woman is in the Arapahoe County jail after an attack in an Englewood alley. Forsythia Eliese Owen, 30, of Englewood, is jailed without bond, suspected of beating 42-year-old Denzle Rainey to death with a baseball bat in the alley between the 3600 blocks of South Grant and South Sherman streets. After a man found Rainey bleeding badly in the alley, Englewood police arrived at the scene a little after 1 a.m. on Sept. 22. Rainey was taken to Swedish Medi- Owen cal Center and died from injuries received in the beating. An autopsy showed he had suffered serious head injuries, two broken arms, a broken left hand, six broken ribs and a laceration to his liver. Police had already spoken with Owen, but as the investigation continued, they interviewed her a second time about 2 p.m. Sept. 23. According to the arrest affidavit, Owen told officers she believed Rainey had sexually assaulted a child. When asked if she was responsible for the man’s death, she reportedly stood, said she killed him and swung her arms back and forth to demonstrate how she had hit Rainey over and over with a bat. When officers tried to advise her of her rights, she reportedly said she needed a lawyer. But the affidavit states after she signed the papers certifying she had been advised of her rights, she agreed to continue talking to officers without a lawyer present. During that discussion, the affidavit states she told officers she learned Rainey was sleeping in the alley, took a baseball bat from her residence, went to where he was sleeping and began beating him. She told officers he was still breathing when she left the alley to return home. She was arrested and taken to the Arapahoe County jail.

Details emerge of victim’s life

Neighbors, acquaintances put candles at scene of fatal attack By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Yellow crime-scene tape remains on a garage door and, on the ground nearby, individuals have brought candles to create an impromptu memorial at the site where Denzle Rainey was beaten to death. The garage door and memorial are located a short distance south from East Jefferson Drive, in the dirt alley between the 3600 blocks of South Grant and South Sherman streets. The neighborhood is a quiet area with a mixture of Victim continues on Page 9

Storyteller helps others reach within He doesn’t remember quite what motivated him to offer a class to senior citizens on how to write your own life story. But then, for Garrett Ray, at 77 no youngster himself, life has been all about stories. The first page of his in-progress book starts this way: “Our stories begin as fragments in an attic trunk, nearly forgotten, then rediscovered, sometimes to our surprise. We pull out bits of fabric, examine the colors, move the scraps around, enjoy each one as a unique link to our past. Then we begin to place them side by side, discovering patterns we had not seen before, rearranging, looking again.” When you think about it, that’s who we are, isn’t it? A jumble of pieces steadily stitched into a narrative that somehow, one day, amazingly and unexpectedly, becomes a good story. You just have to see it. “Everybody … has stories to tell,” says Ray, in his soft and quick-paced voice, “if you can just get them to think that way.” The classes began in 2010 in the Highlands Ranch retirement complex he and his wife of 53 years moved to after a first career as a newspaper reporter and editor and a second one as a journalism professor. He calls this his third act. Offered once or twice a year for five hours over five weeks, the classes average 10 to 15 students. Even though he wrote weekly newspaper columns for more than 20 years, Ray uses Lois Daniel’s book, “How to Write Your Own Life Story,” to help teach his students. “A lot of them think if you’re going to write your life story, you’ve got to start with the first day,” Ray says. But you don’t. You look for the moments. “It might be a happy incident …

or a house you lived in,” Ray says. “And that’s where you ought to start, and guaranteed … you have enough stories to string together to make a pretty impressive package.” That’s what Dottie and John Talbott are doing. The couple, in their 80s, attended one of Ray’s classes last year. John, who can no longer type or write, is in a motorized wheelchair and speaks very softly. So he dictated his stories to Dottie, who typed them on the computer. “We figured out what things to talk about and what things to put in his memoir up to his sophomore year in college,” Dottie says. That’s when they met. “It was great fun,” she says, with a laugh. “I heard a lot of things I didn’t even know about him and we’ve been married for 63 years.” This winter, Dottie plans to write her part, which also will end at sophomore year in college. Then, she and John will compile the rest together. When the story is complete, one of their three daughters will add photographs and print the book. Their children, seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren, Dottie says, “will know who we are.” ••• Ray’s passion for writing started when he was 11 in Greeley, where he grew up. He, his younger brother and sister and a couple of friends published a weekly newspaper called “The Neighborhood News” for three

And “In 2007 I became old.” “I have begun to notice the darkening beauty of our mountain ridge against the last light in the western sky. I wait for the dusk, grateful for the purity, the clarity, the nightly gift. “I dance with Bailey, overflowing with 18 months of toothy grins and joyful rhythms, to ‘Sleeping Beauty’ and ‘Mary Had a Little Lamb.’ “I cry easily, in sadness, in joy, in gratitude, in celebration. “In 2007, I became 71. I forgave myself. I began to wonder what happens next.” Ray calls his in-progress book “Partial Recall” because he doesn’t remember every detail. Just bits and pieces stand out. His life story, he says, is not cohesive. “This is not going to have the nice, smooth flow that a memoir would have. I don’t know if it will work or not. But it doesn’t make any difference if it works or not if I’m happy with it.” In the end, he hopes his grandchildren and their children, whoever reads his words, will think “it was worth their time.” Remember the first page, where Ray describes stories as scraps of fabric that we constantly rearrange and lay side-by-side into stories that matter? Here is the last line to that paragraph: “Before our eyes, a larger scene emerges, full of memories and color. Finally, our patchwork quilts reveal the stories of our lives.” We all have one. We just have to see it.

summers. They wrote about lost dogs and vacation trips and home improvements. He learned a bit about storytelling from his mother, a reporter and editor at The Greeley Tribune. His tenure as editor and publisher at The Littleton Independent from the 1960s to 1981 won him state and national acclaim — he was recently inducted into the Denver Press Club Hall of Fame. And he continued sharing his love for storytelling with students as a professor at Colorado State University until retiring in 2001. When you get it just right, writing is a gift, Ray says: “The human being … the eccentricities of people, the joys of people, the sadness of lives. … Almost anything will shape itself into a story if you can figure out how to start.” He smiles, blue eyes earnest behind his glasses, as he answers a question about the writing of his life story. Working on it, he says. “I’ve got to give myself a deadline — I only respond to deadlines, I think.” But he has a good start. A white utility binder encompasses 70 or so pages, some copies of the “Scratch Pad” columns he wrote for the newspaper, others written more recently. Each carries a simple title. There’s “The house on the corner.” “When we turn the corner by the house, I always hope someone will be standing outside so I can stop and say, ‘I grew up here!’ Here is where my parents planted the iris garden, and here, my grandmother grew roses, feeding them coffee grounds each evening.” And “Playing back the old tapes.” “We carry old tape recordings in our unconscious minds. …” And “Farm boys” and “Understanding Dad” and “Thanksgiving at Grandma Ray’s.”

Lawyers, officials tackle civil-court aid for poor Litigants face tough task in non-criminal cases By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com At one time, Maria Nunez was a single mom struggling alone to reach a settlement with her ex. Today, she’s a confident personal trainer with fair child support and visitation agreements. Nunez credits help she got from Metro Volunteer Lawyers. “I felt that I was in the middle of a big support group,” she says in a video shown to elected officials and others from throughout the 18th Judicial District during the Access to Justice Hearing, held Sept. 24 at the Arapahoe County Justice Center. “It was nice to see how that helped Maria grow,” attorney Steve Cook says in the video. When someone facing criminal charges shows up in court without an attorney, the judge can appoint a public defender at taxpayer expense. But there is no such provision in civil cases like divorce, probate and custody battles — situations that people who can’t afford an attorney commonly face. “I was drowning in debt, as everyone was at the time,” said Patricia Crowe, who saved her house from foreclosure with help an attorney from Colorado Legal Services. “He was very good and very thorough, and he was with me through the whole deal.” Hobbs presented data indicating there are 85,000 people living in poverty in the 18th Judicial District, a number that is projected to grow by 45 percent before the year 2040. In 2012, more than 82,000 civil cases were filed in the district, mostly in county court. There are efforts throughout the district to provide help for people facing civil battles, whether they are defending themselves or filing a claim. For example, Douglas and Arapahoe counties both have “pro se clinics” to guide people representing

themselves through the court system. “I compare it to changing an oil filter,” said David Rolfe of the Douglas Pro Se and Mediation Clinic. “If you’ve never changed an oil filter, you’re going to want to get with a buddy and watch it happen first.” There’s also a new self-help center at the Arapahoe County Justice Center that’s seen more than 1,000 people since it opened at the beginning of the year. Its director, Lindsey Adams, said domestic-relations cases make up 76 percent of those she sees. In divorce cases, for example, people can pick up a packet from the clerk’s office, fill it out and file everything themselves. But they often get stuck. “There’s a real emotional factor,” she

said. “Even though it has instructions, it can be overwhelming.” Families facing separation due to deportation can often be waylaid by emotion, as well. Mekela Goehring of the Rocky Mountain Immigrant Advocacy Network explained that undocumented immigrants have no right to an attorney, no matter their status, nationality or even age. “It simply is an injustice that 5-year-olds are forced to represent themselves,” she said. Organizations like MVL and CLS provide volunteer attorneys to the indigent, but they rely on state and local funding. Representatives from those organizations say the money is unpredictable, insufficient and

dwindling. “Despite our best efforts, the American Bar Association estimates only 20 percent of the legal needs of the poor are met,” said Jonathan Asher of CLS. “We, in fact, turn away one person for every person we help.” Part of the money comes from fees tacked on to filing charges, which some consider controversial. “There is a real philosophical debate around funding our judicial system and access to it by charging the participants in the system,” said state Sen. Pat Steadman, D-Denver. “At some point, you can start to price it out of reach.” Such assistance doesn’t just help the poor, notes Colorado Supreme Court Justice Gregory J. Hobbs. He says it speeds up the process for everyone by keeping incorrect paperwork and confusion from leaving cases languishing on the dockets. And the longer they languish, the more they cost in the way of attorney fees, staff time and other resources, he said. “It puts us as judges in a very difficult position, because we can’t go out of our way to offer them legal advice,” he said. “We can help them along, but we can’t offer them a whole lot of guidance.” Elbert County Commissioner Robert Rowland wondered about the other extreme, asking if a lot of pro se cases are frivolous and clogging up the courts unnecessarily. “I have no doubt that some pro se people have meritless cases,” said Asher. “There are some who no reasonable lawyer would take their case. Some get that message, and some go ahead and file pro se.” But, he adds, assistance services can help weed those out. Dianne Van Voorhees of MVL noted fundraising in this arena can be more challenging than in others, such as animal shelters or starving children. “People say, `I love puppies, and I love kittens.’ But it’s tougher for our people. We get our people at the toughest time in their lives. … We need to figure out how to broaden the knowledge about this critical service we provide to the community.”

State’s racial gaps narrow in education Economic disparities stay unchanged over two-year stretch By Burt Hubbard

I-News at Rocky Mountain PBS Black and Latino adults in Colorado narrowed some of the wide education gaps with their white counterparts last year, according to an I-News analysis of new U.S. Census Bureau data. Colorado no longer has the largest gaps in the nation in college graduation rates between black and white residents, and both Latino and black adults saw high school graduation gaps narrow to their lowest levels in decades. “That’s good news all the way around,” said Lt. Gov. Joe Garcia, who also is executive director of the Colorado Higher Education Department. “It’s the result of more focus and more collaboration between K-12 and higher education.” However, income, poverty and homeownership disparities between whites and the state’s larg-

est minority groups remained unchanged between 2010 and 2012, the analysis found. An I-News investigation published earlier this year of six decades of Census data found that minority gains made in key economic and education areas had eroded over time. In many cases, the disparities between Latinos, blacks and whites were wider in 2010 than they were in the 1960s and 1970s. The latest Census data from the 2012 American Community Survey of states and their largest cities and counties found acrossthe-board increases in minority high school and college graduation rates since 2010. The percent of black adults 25 years of age and older with college degrees rose from about 20 percent to 24 percent during the two years. That narrowed the gap with their white counterparts to less than 20 percentage points, compared to 23 percentage points in 2010. White college graduation rates inched up less than 1 percentage point to 43 percent in 2012. As a result, Colorado no longer has the largest gaps in the U.S.

between white and black adults. It now ranks third behind Connecticut and Massachusetts, the I-News analysis found. Sharon Bailey, a former Denver Public Schools board member and a member of the Colorado Black Round Table, said the state’s attention to education disparities may be starting to pay off. “I do think there has been a bigger spotlight put on graduation rates and remediation,” Bailey said. The round table is holding a community forum at Manual High School in Denver Sept. 28 on minority education and economic gaps. The college graduation gap between Latino and white Colorado adults remained unchanged in the new report, exceeding 30 percentage points, and was still the largest in the U.S. Both Latino and black adults continued to narrow the gaps in high school graduation rates. Black rates rose from 86 percent to 89 percent and Latino rates rose from 65 percent to 68 percent between 2010 and 2012, while white rates stayed at about 96 percent. Both gaps are the smallest

New vote looks likely for Willowcroft site Activists turn in 210 names when 58 will do By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com In an effort to stall development on the old Willowcroft property, a group of Columbine Valley residents turned in 210 signatures Sept. 18 — five weeks early and with 152 more than the 58 required. “If the petitions meet sufficiency, which I anticipate they will, the board of trustees must then reconsider the rezoning of the property,” said JD McCrumb, town clerk. He is in the process of determining that now. Development company Taylor Morrison won the first round in April, when the town’s board of trustees approved its plan to demolish the former Willowcroft Manor & Farm, 3600 W. Bowles Ave., to make way for 41 singlestory patio homes and one large estate home. The company silenced a long and vocal controversy about preserving the historic building by tearing it down shortly thereafter. But that didn’t quell concerns about the density of the project, so Brian Macaulay launched an effort to force the matter to a vote of the public. The town’s master plan technically limits maximum density to 2.4 units per acre, less than the 2.95 that Taylor Morrison proposes. “The residents are sending a message to the trustees that they want the trustees to respect the master plan, which lays out a

vision for the town’s future,” he says. “The clear standard in the master plan is for all new developments to beautify and enhance the town, and to maintain the open feel that is unique to Columbine Valley. This highdensity development does not accomplish these goals.” McCrumb expects the board to review the ordinance during its Oct. 15 meeting. The trustees can either repeal it, sending the developer back to the drawing board, or let the town’s voters have the final say by setting a date for a special election sometime in December, January or February. “It is my hope that we can get this done as quickly as possible, and hold the election before the end of this year,” said McCrumb. That might be because next year will have its own battle. The 106-acre Tuck property is being scoped out by developers, and McCrumb expects a proposal to be on the table sometime next year. Macauley worries the Willowcroft project could set a trend. “My message to the residents of Columbine Valley regarding what the trustees have approved is that actions speak louder than words,” he said. “If they acted in this way on this project, when it clearly runs counter to the guidelines of the master plan, what reason is there to think that they will not do the same for every other future development in our town, such as (the Tuck farm)? The residents need to send a clear message to the trustees that this will not be allowed. The trustees must respect the long-term vision of our town.”

Garcia since 1960. However, Garcia said most new jobs in the state in the coming years will require more than a high school degree. “A high school degree just isn’t going to cut it,” he said. “When we look at Colorado’s economy, we know that some 70 percent of the jobs that will be created in the next 10 years will require some post-secondary credentials.” Both Garcia and Bailey said the state needs to step up its efforts on educational attainment.

Bailey said Colorado needs to look at factors behind minority successes and replicate them. Garcia said the state should work on eliminating barriers to minorities completing college, such as the high rate of remedial classwork, while expanding programs such as concurrent enrollment, which allows students to take college class while still in high school. “We have to do a better job if we want to have a strong economy long term.” The gaps in economic areas such as family income and homeownership either remained unchanged or widened slightly between 2010 and 2012, the analysis found. Family income and poverty gaps widened between white and black residents, while homeownership gaps widened between white and Latino households.

opinions / yours and ours

We love letters, but stay within lines In an era in which readers are more likely to post comments at the bottom of an online article or on a blog or on Facebook, we believe there is still a place for the good old-fashioned letter to the editor. Unlike online commenting, letters to the editor must go through something of a vetting process before being published. Largely, this is in order to maintain a measure of civility that, sadly, is often lacking online. On our opinion pages, we aim to provide a forum to stir community conversation. We appreciate diversity of thought and do not pick which letters run or don’t run based on our viewpoint. If you’re wondering why your letter wasn’t printed or are hoping to have one that is, read what follows. These do’s and don’ts will make the process easier for you and our editors. Do: • Your homework. In other words, check your facts. We have a small staff and can’t do

our view this for you. If you’re unsure of something, look it up. If you include a nugget of information that is not widely known, include where you found that fact. • Express your opinion. Tell us what you like or dislike. We particularly appreciate it when you comment on our articles and opinion pieces regarding local issues. But state, national and world issues are also on the table, if they are of relevance to our readers. • Keep it short. Our policy calls for letters of 300 words or fewer. Sure, we try to be a little flexible, and from time to time, you might see a letter a little longer but still in the ballpark. If you must go way over the limit, it won’t run, at least not as a letter to

letter to the editor amendment 66 is wrong course

Referendum C set TABOR’s tax baseline at the highest amount collected between 2005 to 2010. Ref C’s big-spending advocates promised that its tax burden would last only five years. But Coloradans still pay $1 billion each year. Now our state wants Amendment 66, an additional $1 billion annually. Rather than its ever-expanding bloated budget, the state should eliminate inefficiencies and consolidate or privatize government functions. Education consumes 37 percent of the budget, roughly $10,000 per pupil. Still, despite billions of tax dollars spent on educa-

tion, pupil achievement remains essentially flat. Moreover, the state will impose more regulations, taking yet more control of their children’s schooling away from parents. High taxes stifle the economy, reduce the amount individuals have to spend, and limit the ability of businesses to expand or to maintain employee benefits. Amendment 66 carries a $1 billion price tag that will grow every year. Its goals cannot be measured. Colorado taxpayers deserve better. Peg Brady Centennial

Conflict resolution is worth fighting for Since 2009, every October during Conflict Resolution Month, I’ve been writing and presenting town halls about reducing conflict in our lives. Yet we are again dealing with a partial federal government shutdown due to the stubbornness in the U.S. Congress. And why? Apparently, some people just don’t know how to manage conflict effectively. Or maybe their egos have run amuck, and they think they don’t have to govern efficiently in order to remain in office? Maybe they need to hear from us that they need to find a better way of governing; a more collaborative method. Every year in the workplace, employers (including the government) across the country are losing millions of dollars in employee absenteeism, lost productivity, and employee turnover due to people not knowing how to prevent or solve people problems. How many marriages could be saved if people knew how to stop yelling and start listening? And how many taxpayer dollars could be saved if members of Congress could drop their egos and collaborate on solutions rather than finger-pointing? Colorado’s No. 1 employer is the federal government, so we’re certain to be affected by this dysfunction. This is why I have once again sponsored Conflict Resolution Month. And isn’t it ironic that as we watch the U.S. Congress implode, that in Colorado, we’re honoring October as Conflict Resolution Month? What is Conflict Resolution Month, and how can it help our communities? Across Colorado during October, there are local and regional events that range from workshops, to town halls, to open dialogues where people can learn tips and techniques about preventing or resolving their own conflicts. I’m very proud that we now have all the cities and towns in Senate District 26 proclaiming to spread the awareness of Conflict Resolution. Imagine if every elected official, government employee, or contractor collaborated with each other in their work. The efficiency

and effectiveness of government would soar. The cost savings would rise. And trust in government could be regained. How can it help you personally? Imagine having more peace in your home or peace among your friends or neighbors. Think of hearing your kids bragging about solving their own problems on the playground or in the classroom. And what if you knew how to handle that cranky co-worker, customer, or boss? Your workday would become easier and more enjoyable. If we had the tools to prevent or minimize just some of our conflict, imagine how much better life would be for all of us. Doctors tell us that when we reduce the stress in our lives, we reduce our chances of heart attack, high blood pressure, stroke, etc., and the list goes on. And what creates stress? Usually, some sort of conflict — internal or external. Please join me at my Conflict Resolution Town Hall on Oct. 12 at Blueberry’s on Littleton Boulevard at 9 a.m. We will be providing conflict resolution tips, tools, and resources that are available locally. Go to senlindanewell.com, conflictresolutionmonth.org, or call 303-866-4846 for more information. Linda Newell is the state senator for Senate District 26, which includes Littleton, Englewood, Bow Mar, Columbine Valley, Sheridan, Cherry Hills Village, Greenwood Village, west Centennial and parts of Aurora.

the editor. Consider requesting a guest column instead — but we have limited space for these. • Email your letter to letters@ourcoloradonews.com. You can also email one of our editors, but it is more efficient to send your letters to the address specifically designated for them. • Let us know who you are. Include your full name, address and phone number with your letter. We won’t publish your digits, don’t worry. We just need to give you a call to make sure the letter was actually written by you. Yes, “letter-to-the-editor fraud” does happen. Don’t: • Put words in someone’s mouth. You can write in support — or opposition — of another person, such as a candidate for public office, but don’t assign any thoughts, opinions or actions to an individual that haven’t been publicly documented. If you do so, we may consider it a news tip and investigate the validity of your claim, but we won’t run

it as a letter to the editor. • Buy a stamp. “Snail mail” isn’t efficient when it comes to letters to the editor. As mentioned, we have a small staff and can’t take the time to retype your letter (which, we’re guessing, was written on a computer anyway). Email your letter to the address mentioned earlier. It will get to us faster, something you will appreciate if you want to see it published in the upcoming edition of the newspaper. • Inundate us with letters. By this, we mean from one person. We want everyone to have their say, so don’t expect to see more than two of your letters printed in any given month. • Be surprised if we edit for grammar or punctuation. We approach this very judiciously, however. A tip: DON’T WRITE IN ALL CAPS or use a lot of !!! • Use profanity or call someone a word you wouldn’t use in front of your mother. Your letters really do matter. We look forward to seeing more of them.

Too good for our own good Just even saying that we are “too good” at something is kind of like saying we are having “too much fun,” or “we have too much money.” None of these statements makes a whole lot of sense, as I can’t remember a time when I actually had too much fun and I never found myself saying that there was no more room in my bank account because I simply had too much money. However, I can look at times when I had reached a certain level of expertise or accomplishment at a specific skill or craft and can probably say that I had become “too good” at that particular skill. It’s not being good, great, or extremely accomplished at something that is the problem, it’s when we become complacent or even maybe careless because we start to operate on autopilot. I have met many extremely talented and skilled individuals and teams who are wonderfully accomplished. They never cease to amaze me with their capabilities and productivity. But even some of these folks have gotten caught in the trap of complacency or carelessness, cutting corners and taking shortcuts because they have been doing their job or fulfilling their role for so many years they forget to pay attention to the details. When this happens they don’t produce their best work, or they set a poor example for someone who may be looking to learn from that person as a role model or mentor. So how do we make sure that we do not lose sight of the importance of our gifts and talents that help us fulfill our purpose, those things and skills that we have become so good at? How do we avoid the autopilot

syndrome and maintain the integrity of our effort and continued pursuit of being better than good? One way is to always be willing to learn even more. No matter how good we believe we are, regardless of how strong, fast, accomplished or experienced we believe ourselves to be, there is always someone better, smarter, stronger, faster, and more productive than we are. Always. So we need to be willing to develop an attitude of being a constant student of the game, especially when it comes to those things that we are For most passionate about.

Littleton Hockey celebrates 50th anniversary Athletes from 4 to 18 can play, learn skills By Tom Munds

cienttmunds@ourcoloradonews.com r. As can’t A sizable crowd of adults and children hich,turned out and shared memories, hugs and putersmiles Sept. 29 during the Littleton Hockey dressAssociation 50th anniversary celebration. aster, Event organizers sought to have a litwanttle something for everyone. There was a itionbounce house for the little ones, games and activities including a hockey goal shoot for s, weyoung athletes, food, beverages and lots of yonetables and chairs to just sit and chat about morethe sport and the association. given “This is a pretty nice event,” Laura Taylor said. “My son keeps talking about wanting ar orto play hockey, a neighbor told me about judi-today’s event and I decided to check it out.” E IN The Centennial resident said everyone was friendly and helped her answer a lot of wordquestions about youth hockey. She smiled er. and said her son is excited and, while she k for-hadn’t decided, it is possible she might sign him up for one of the teams. The ice rink that became the initial home of the Littleton Hockey Association was purchased and brought from Amarillo, Texas, in 1963. It was an outdoor rink originally set up at Arapahoe County Fairgrounds, the site that eventually became Cornerstone Park. South Suburban Ice Arena was built in 1969, and the original outdoor rink equipment was moved to the arena in 1974. South Suburban Ice Arena and the Ice Ranch at Littleton are home ice for the multitude of teams playing under the Littleton Hockey Association banner. There are about 675 boys and girls, ranging in age from four to 18, playing on association teams. There are about 180 4- to 8-year-olds on association teams while there are 19 teams of 9- to 18-year-olds. The largest single age group are the 13and 14-year-olds who ﬁll the rosters of the 14 association teams in the under 14 division. While many of the teams play only in

the metro area, the upper level age-group teams often travel to tournaments at different locations around the country. Brian TenEyck, director, said Littleton Hockey has been developing great hockey players and citizens for 50 years. He said he knows from experience the association is a strong family and community organization because he was a player, his dad was a coach and he eventually became director. The association honors players who are program alumni who went on to play hockey at a Division 1 college or higher by placing their pictures on the wall of fame. Six new inductees were added to the 75 pictures on the wall at South Suburban Ice Arena. Kent Murphy started with Littleton Hockey in 1994. He had played hockey in North Dakota and coached in a major program in Minnesota before a job transfer brought him to Colorado. “I became a coach for the Littleton Hockey Association because it was the best program in Colorado,” he said. “I coached peewee teams made up of 13- and 14-year-olds for about 15 years. We were blessed to have good athletes and we won three national championships during the time I coached the teams. We traveled to the national playoffs 10 times and won three championships in a five-year span.” He said the evidence of the level of talent is the fact that nine of the 18 players on the 2001 national championship team went on to play hockey at Division 1 colleges. Ashley Hunt noted it takes a family commitment to have a child play hockey. “My 10-year-old son is playing hockey and a child playing hockey requires a family commitment of time, effort and finances,” she said. “Hockey probably is more expensive than most sports, and that cost goes up when traveling is involved. I am fortunate because I have a lot of family support to help cover the costs.” However, she noted it also places a lot of demands on the time of the parents and the child. She said her son is on the ice five to six hours a week, plus the other training activities mean committing about 20 hours

Three LHA alumni now at DU Former association players are modern-day Pioneers By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Littleton Hockey alumni have gone on to play higher-level hockey. For example, Josiah Didier, Grant Arnold and Quentin Shore now wear the University of Denver scarlet and gold. Each of the athletes started playing hockey as a 5-year-old or younger and stuck with the sport. Didier said his parents are hockey fans and he followed in their lead and started playing in the Littleton Hockey Association when he was about 5. “I graduated from ThunderRidge High School but I did not play high school hockey,” he said. “Instead, I played for the Littleton Thunderbirds, an AAA-level team that is a step up from high school hockey.” He left the Thunderbirds to move to Iowa to play junior A hockey, the step up from AAA. He spent three years with the Iowa team and eventually was recruited by DU. He said he has seen hockey become more

popular, so there are more teams and more kids playing the sport. Arnold is a 2010 Arapahoe High School graduate. “I started out playing for association age group teams,” he said. “When I got older, I played for the Littleton Thunderbirds before spending three years with Green Bay in the United States Hockey League.” In the USHL, clubs pay all expenses but no one receives a salary, so the athlete can remain an amateur. Last year, Arnold accepted a scholarship and the Pioneer sophomore now plays forward for DU. Shore also began playing hockey at a very young age. He attended Kent Denver through the ninth grade and, as a high school sophomore, he was invited to move to Michigan to be part of the national development team. Last year, he accepted an offer from DU. He also was drafted by the National Hockey League Ottawa Senators. He attended the Senators’ summer development camp with no impact on his amateur standing. Of course, if the NHL team signs him, he would become a professional athlete and have to leave college. He noted that hasn’t been discussed yet.

The Sept. 28 Littleton Hockey Association 50th anniversary event offered food, games and a chance to meet and greet friends. About 500 people attended the event. a week to hockey activities. “But, the parents of the players on my son’s team are like a big family,” she said. “We try to pitch in to share duties. For example, one parent may take a group of kids

to practice and another parent will pick those kids up and take them home. We work together on scheduling and getting the kids where they need to be. We become close and great friendships develop.”

OBITUARIES CLINE

Jean Kathryn Cline

Jean Kathryn Cline, age 88, of Tuscaloosa, died August 25, 2013, at her home following a long illness. A private funeral service will be held with Rev. Charles Pieplow officiating. Arrangements are being handled by Sunset Funeral Home. She was preceded in death by her husband, Richard L. Cline, her parents, Merle Kyle and Antone Schumacher, her brother, George Albert Schumacher, and her sister, Phyllis Marie Schumacher. Survivors include her daughter Kathryn Cline Byrd (Gene), her son Richard L. Cline, Jr., her granddaughters Jeannette Byrd of Peterson, AL, and Dana Byrd of Corpus Christi, TX., and her great-granddaughters Lydia and Julia Byrd. Jean was born in Muscatine, IA, where she was raised until she was 16. She graduated from Davenport, IA, High School and attended the University of Iowa and the University of Colorado Extension. She worked in physicians’ offices in both Iowa and Colorado, and later assisted her husband in the family business, Richard Cline Film Productions, which produced educational films. She continued to manage his business for several years after his death. Talented musically, she played the piano and

flute, and instructed beginning flute students while still in high school. She was active in her church, particularly in the care of elderly shut-ins, loved taking adult education classes, traveled extensively both in the U.S. and abroad, and was a voracious reader. A lifelong Lutheran, Jean had a strong religious faith and spoke often about her close relationship with her Lord. Her greatest love was her family. She was a patient and devoted mother who opened her home to “the neighborhood kids.” She adored her granddaughters, whom she called her “dividends,” and her great-granddaughters, whom she called her “bonuses.” She moved to Alabama in her later years to be closer to her family, and Nana will be missed by all. The family wants to express special thanks to Dr. Debra S. Davis, Dr. Jeanne Lipscomb, Dr. Rick Thomason, Hospice of West Alabama, Always There and Home Instead Services, and those who offered their prayers during her long illness. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorials be made to Hospice of West Alabama, 3851 Loop Road, Tuscaloosa 35404, or University Lutheran Church, 911 Fifth Avenue, Tuscaloosa 35401.

Taylor looks back on years of service Term-limited Littleton councilor also ponders what future may hold By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com As Jim Taylor approaches the end of his time on Littleton City Council, he’s reflecting on 45 years of public service. “There’s been a lot of success in my life, and a few disappointments,” he said. “Maybe there still some out there. … It’s been a privilege to represent the city on so many levels, the city, at the state and nationally. And I don’t want to be egotistical, but I think that anybody I’ve served with in whatever capacity would tell you that I come to meetings very well prepared. I read everything, and generally I’m not afraid to speak out. I have thoroughly enjoyed what I do, and I tell people that all the time.” Taylor’s resume is longer than a child’s wish list at Christmas. He was first elected as the city of Northglenn’s treasurer in 1969. Two years later he was running for the city council there against an incumbent. A lot of people thought he would lose that race so wrote his name in as a candidate for treasurer; he won both. That spurred state legislation that prohibited anyone from serving in two elected positions at the same time, but he got to serve two years in both seats. After he and his wife, Ginny, moved to Littleton, he was elected to council first in 1977. He’s served either there or on the South Suburban Parks and Recreation board of directors, also an elected office, pretty much ever since, and has been active in many national, state and local groups. Taylor, who retired as a principal in the Sheridan School District, has come a long way from his humble beginnings. “I came from a very small, oneroom school in Texas, and Texas had a law that you had to have 21 students to have a school district,” he remembers. “We dropped below that, and we had to consolidate with another town. I rode 20 miles on the bus. I graduated from high school one of nine students, and eight of them were girls.”

Met wife on blind date

After graduation, he intended to major in architecture. But his family’s finances were limited, so he wound up with a teaching certificate. But first came love. “I met my wife, Ginny, on a blind date,” he said. “Our friends introduced us on Valentine’s Day in 1963. … Five weeks later we decided to get married, but we didn’t get married until the end of July. I won a National Science Foundation scholarship to study advanced math in Oklahoma for five months. … I knew after the second date. It’s just one of those things. I knew she was the right person for me.” They were married 37 years and had five kids who gave them 10 grand-

kids. “We insisted on our kids going to Littleton High School, because it’s got such a diverse population, and that’s what they would see in life,” he said. Although Ginny died of cancer in April 2000, his affection for her remains fresh on his face. “She was in in-home hospice, and I stayed home with her 24/7,” he said. “The nurse said, `We’re going to put her in a center, because you need some rest.’ I said, `I won’t do that.’” Taylor credits his success at least in part to that same dedication to his job. “I talk about exactly what I believe in,” he said. “When I got elected to council in 1977, I had some strong opposition. I was invited to a victory party, and I overheard two women saying, `Who’s this guy? He’s not one of us.’ I liked the fact that I’m not one of `them,’ but I got elected. That could be the rebel in me, I don’t know. … Five times I ran, and three were unopposed. So people must like what I do, or at least have no objection to it, I guess.” One of the things that originally spurred Taylor to run in Littleton was the location of his house, in the Bow Mar neighborhood west of the South Platte River. “The railroad depression divided the city,” he said, with ambulances and fire trucks blocked by trains. “The long-lasting effects of lowering the tracks were that it allowed us to become a unified city, and one of the things I first ran on was a real feeling that the west side was an orphan. They didn’t feel they were getting good services and recognition, and I hope that in my 20 years on council, I’ve helped change that. Light rail was just a secondary event, because somebody was smart enough to fit it in there. I think the unity was more important than light rail.”

Advocate of growth

He’s often championed the idea of encouraging growth in the city. “The biggest disappointment was when we had the opportunity to annex Highlands Ranch, and we didn’t,” he said. “It would not look like it does today. There would be a little more open space, and not be quite so dense, I don’t think. You never can predict, but that would probably have translated into we would have Sterling Ranch now. And this desire came from my experiences in Northglenn. In 1969, the cities of Thornton and Westminster had surrounded Northglenn so it could not grow. It was landlocked almost from the very beginning, and you begin to see the deterioration when you can’t grow. … I would push for growth having seen that.” Related to that, he wished council had not accepted a deal with Denver Water that, in exchange for about $2.6 million, ended the utility’s obligation to provide water to any new land the city might annex. “I really think we got railroaded into accepting that contract, and we certainly didn’t get enough out of it,”

he said. “It did stop us from annexing Sterling Ranch. They were afraid we were going to do that, and they were going to have to supply water. … I sometimes wish I had spoken out more on issues, like against the water contract. But once it’s done and in the past, I tend to forget about it. Someday when I’m going through boxes, I’ll come across a whole bunch of things I wish I’d said.” Conti Despite all that, Taylor is happy with the state of the city as he leaves singl council. “I’m glad to see that we’re open for A business,” he said. “I want DRCOG hood urban-growth boundaries to stay stat- Rain ic and not expand, which will mean Forsy more redevelopment within the bor- death ders, including Littleton. All the lit- “S erature now indicates the young pro- fami fessionals don’t want to own homes, came and they’re satisfied with not having the a a car. They like walkable communi- Th ties and nighttime activities, and that’s show why the apartments are so appealing Rain to them. … I see the city aging, and I OK a hope it ages gracefully. We’ve had a lot Ac of growth, and I think that we’ve be- book come more mature. The growth is go- and a ing to cause more dense development poste if you can’t sprawl. We don’t have the He a ability to sprawl unless we annex into H Douglas County. There’s no tax money child to get from Jefferson County. If we had that Sterling Ranch, we’d get building and was was d use taxes right away.” ed re A Wants to tax pot

Despite his conservative roots, Taylor has recently, and proudly, taken up a rather progressive cause. “Well, it’s coming up, and that’s the retail marijuana ban,” he said. “Our citizens voted for it, and I’m getting Conti lots of emails supporting retail. So if it fails, that’s going to be a big disappointment for me. I’ve always said decis regulate it and tax it. Not having the child ability to tax it is really going to cause a lite a reduction in our revenue. You’re not happ going to stop the marijuana, it’s still trict going to be there. The only thing re- a goo tail changes is we receive no revenue; is “al instead, Denver does. I look at life as attem you’ve got to be real. You’re not going to stop it, so let’s put it out in the open Short where we can regulate it and make Th year’ money off of it.” That issue will be settled before he ning leaves office, but that won’t be the end quen of his contributions to the city. He’ll Ya remain on Denver Regional Council and of Governments’ Metro Vision 2040 pen committee and on the city’s Riverfront said Authority, which manages the metro district that built the EchoStar building at Santa Fe and Bowles Avenue. “I hope we will get a project to start working on,” he said. “If the city designates an area that needs help, we can use the Riverfront Authority as a vehicle to provide that help. Absolutely, it’s controversial. I do not shy away from controversy. … I don’t know what kind of opportunities will come forward next. I don’t anticipate sitting home doing nothing. I may show up at council a lot to give a different viewpoint from the `anti’ viewpoints.”

decision to provide Englewood schoolchildren with tablet computers as part of a literacy program, Gorsky said: “I am not happy with the achievement our school district is currently showing” and “I have been a good steward of your money.” He said he is “already prudent with tax dollars” in his attempts to add value to the schools.

The city’s projected shortfall in next year’s budget, with expenditures outrunning revenues by $1.2 million, came up frequently.

enemy of great.” When we settle for just being good at something we give up on our pursuit of achieving greatness or excellence. So let’s not settle for just being “too good” at something, let’s focus on making sure that we remain diligent and proud of all that we do on our way to being great.

be at risk: “If we become a ward of the court, they’re gone.” Russell also cut to the chase in her take on city finances. “If we have to fund the pension fund,” she said, “we will be broke in one year. We need to take care of that immediately.” In his closing, Yates, who has a business background, said rival Gorsky “has never had to build a business” and ran a school budget of money “given to him.” Gorsky didn’t take the bait, saying that in his service he has learned the value of “the three R’s: relationships, results and being respectful in dialogue and discourse.” Crabtree said the council’s power to sell the depot without a public vote was finagled by the winning side on the grounds that the site was not a “dedicated” park. Several parks aren’t dedicated, Crabtree said, urging citizens to vote yes on Ballot Question 300 because it “will dedicate every park.” “Let’s not let this happen again,” he said.

single-family houses and duplex units. A woman who lives in the neighborhood but refused to give her name said the Rainey family used to live in the area, and Forsythia Owen, the suspect in the man’s death, lived close by. “Something happened to the Rainey family, Denzle fell on bad times and he became homeless,” she said. “But he stayed in the area.” The Englewood resident said a mattress showed up in the alley and that was where Rainey regularly slept. She said Rainey was OK and didn’t deserve to die like this. According to information on his Facebook page, Rainey grew up in Englewood and attended Sheridan High School. He also posted that he had worked at King Soopers. He also apparently had four sisters. His postings included pictures of his children and, starting in August, he wrote that he and his wife had broken up and he was homeless. Later postings indicated he was despondent and many of them included references to “ending it all.” A memorial service was held Oct. 2 in

Jefferson County. The crime scene is fairly close to the grassy area and bike path along Big Dry Creek where Rick Porter, who lives in a nearby apartment, said he regularly walks his dog and had become acquainted with Rainey. He said the man was obviously down on his luck but was always friendly and never asked for money. He said the greenbelt and surrounding area is a quiet neighborhood, and it was a shock to learn that Rainey had been beaten to death and a local woman was being charged with the crime. When a car pulled up to the curb on Jefferson Drive near the mouth of the alley, Cynthia Lancaster got out. She said she drove to Englewood to see where the tragedy involving Owen and Rainey happened. “I used to live in Englewood and I knew Denzle and his wife Lisa, and I also met Forsythia once but didn’t know her very well,” she said. “The Rainey family seemed like nice people and a while ago, I was shocked when I heard things were bad for Denzle, he had started drinking and was homeless.” She said her heart hurts for both families. “I know the Raineys had children and I think Forsythia did too,” Lancaster said. “Now each family is without one of the parents.”

Littleton schools upgrade English program LPS serves 830 kids with about 50 different native languages By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com A shift in how Littleton Public Schools teaches kids who are learning English is going smoothly, say administrators. Rather than pulling students out of regular classrooms to focus on language acquisition, LPS is piloting co-teaching at two of its schools. Under that model at Field Elementary and Goddard Middle School, a second teacher comes into a classroom to

work on English acquisition. “With our old pull-out model, students were spending lots of time in transition,” said Andrea Scott, an English-language acquisition teacher at Field. “They were leaving during tier-one instruction, not finishing the tasks in the classroom and then coming back into the classroom as lost little lambs, trying to catch up with what they missed. Now instruction feels more seamless.” This year, Field has 45 students who are not proficient in English, 114 with limited proficiency and 20 who are fluent but not quite ready to exit the program. It has five full-time ELA teachers.

Across the district, there are 830 English learners who speak about 50 different native languages. There are ELA programs in place at Centennial, East and Field elementaries; Goddard and Newton middle schools; and Littleton High School. Mandy Leensvaart, the district’s ELA specialist, told the board that all incoming students are tested, and those who could benefit are offered spots in those schools. “But some parents really want their child to be in the neighborhood and be in that community, and we support that choice, as well,” she said. There are about 195 of those kids scattered throughout the district, served by two specialists.

EXTRA! EXTRA! Have a news or business story idea? We'd love to read all about it. To send us your news and business press releases, please visit ourcoloradonews.com, click on the Press Releases tab and follow easy instructions to make submissions.

Leensvaart said the ELA program has a new focus on teaching academic language and requiring proficiency not just in English, but also in the subject being taught. “English-language instruction should not stand alone, but be anchored in content,” she wrote in her memo to the board. She likened it to a little girl in a wheelchair waiting in the snow to get into school while the maintenance worker shovels the steps. If he had shoveled the ramp first, all the kids could get in; instead, he made one wait. “Co-teaching opens the door for our EL students to access the grade-level curriculum,” said Crystal Reid, ELA teacher at Field. “It eliminates the disconnect.”

By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcolorado news.com . An Englewood police information bulletin states three robberies committed Sept. 20 and 21 appear to have been done by the same individual. The first robbery was about 10:55 p.m. Sept. 20 in a store in the 2800 block of South Broadway. The white man had a black bandanna over his face and pointed a black semiautomatic pistol at the clerk. There were two more robberies nearby on Sept. 21, one at 3:10 a.m. in a business in the 800 block of West Hampden Avenue and another about 9 p.m. in a business in the 2700 block

of South Broadway. In each robbery, the robber showed a black semiautomatic pistol, put a plastic bag on the counter and demanded cash. In all three businesses, the clerk surrendered the money. At one store, the robber also demanded a pack of cigarettes and, at another store, he took unknown items off the shelf. The general description of the robber was a white man, wearing a black knit hat, a black sweater or coat and faded blue jeans. In each case, Englewood police unsuccessfully searched the area for the suspect. In two of the cases, Englewood asked for assistance from the Arapahoe County K-9 unit. The dog found a track but did not locate the suspect. The investigation is continuing.

A 22-year-old man told police he was riding his bicycle when two men got out of a car, pointed a gun at him and robbed him. The robbery was reported about 2:4o a.m. Sept. 24 near the intersection of South Federal Boulevard and West Layton Avenue. According to the police report, the victim said he was riding his bike on the sidewalk when a red 2009 Jeep Grand Cherokee pulled up next to him and two men got out and demanded he give them all his stuff. One of the robbers pointed a black semiautomatic pistol at him when he made the demand, so the victim told police he surrendered his wallet, cell phone, MP3 player and backpack to the men. The robbers got back into the Jeep and the vehicle sped north on Federal. One robber was described as a 19-year-old Hispanic male, about 5 feet, 6 inches tall, who weighed about 140 pounds. He had short black hair, was wearing dark pants and a dark T-shirt. He was carrying a handgun The other robber was described as a 19-yearold Hispanic male, about 5-foot-6 and 160 pounds. He had spiky black hair

and was wearing an orange shirt with a gray zip-up jacket. Police searched the area but no suspects were located. Officers are continuing to investigate the case.

Man attacked at station

A 32-year-old man told police he was beaten and robbed about 1:45 p.m. Sept. 29 while he waited for a train at the Englewood Light Rail Station. The man told officers two black men walked up to him and asked him for cigarettes and money. He said when he told them no, they beat him up, took his money and a black Samsung Galaxy S phone. The two men were seen getting on the northbound light rail train. Englewood Police called paramedics to check the victim, who was treated for multiple scrapes and cuts and released. The victim provided a description of only one of the two attackers. He said the attacker was a black man in his 30s with a shaved head and wearing a tan T-shirt. Regional Transportation District security may have the described suspect on video getting off the light rail train at the 10th and Osage station. The investigation is continuing.

THEMES of SCHEMES ‘Dirty Rotten

Scoundrels’ on stage at Town Hall

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcolorado news.com The audience files in at Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center to see a set with white balustrades against a blue sky — the sort that mark a promenade along the seashore in towns on the French Riviera. Lighting will change the mood, but we know where we are. David Yazbek’s lively score kicks in, played by musicians on a marble-railed balcony set high on the side. Palm trees on wheels glide in and a procession of dancers in glitzy

and

gowns and tuxedos follows as the lights go up on a truly delightful musical bonbon: “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels,” directed by the skilled Nick Sugar. Based on a 1988 movie with Michael Caine, Steve Martin and Glen Hedley, the musical opened on Broadway in 2005 with book by Jeffrey Lane and lyrics and score by David Yazbek. The con is on at a Riviera hotel as Lawrence (Keegan Flaugh), Andre (Brian Murray) and the ensemble sing “Give Them What They Want” (schmoozing wealthy women). Lawrence, a smooth operator, talks about getting those gullible women to “make the check out to cash.” His buddy Andre, chief of police, keeps an eye out for new arrivals with potentially

DREAMS

fat purses. Enter an older woman, Muriel, played by a charming Margie Lamb, who reminisces: “What Was a Woman to Do?” Andre takes note and another story begins. Word comes that another con man is in the territory — a threat to Lawrence’s operations? Freddy (Tim Howard) is as casual at Lawrence is classy — with a sob story about a poor old sick grandma who needs money. The two joust a bit verbally and figure they can work the scene together. Their joint number, “All About Ruprecht,” is devised to get rid of Oklahoma heiress Jolene, who has gotten too seriously interested in Lawrence — and packs a pistol. It gives Howard a chance to show his bent for physical comedy as

Ruprecht, supposedly Lawrence’s brother, intellectuallychallenged and randy to an extreme. (Probably not politically correct, but very funny.) American heiress Christine (Rachel Wood) appears on the scene and both men fall for her. The show goes on with several parallel story lines, bubbly score and clever dance numbers — as well as some mutual bamboozling. With Sugar’s sure direction and Donna Debreceni’s band, the pace never lets up — what will happen next? You’ll need to visit Town Hall and find out! “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” is onstage until Oct. 13, in the theater at 2450 W. Main St. in Littleton. For tickets, go to www.townhallartscenter.com or call 303794-2787.

Glass sales to help flood victims Englewood shop owner has Littleton links By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Jane Watkins, a longtime Littleton resident, is co-owner of Watkins Stained Glass, located in Englewood and formerly on Littleton’s Main Street. For a number of years, she has created a new “Main Street Miniature” glass Christmas ornament to sell at the annual Friends of the Littleton Library/Museum Craft Show (happening Oct. 5 at Ketring Park). The 2013 edition has an image of pouring rain and part of the proceeds from her sales will be donated to a relief fund for the many flood victims in Colorado. “We own the very first cabin on the St. Vrain River in Boulder County,” she said, “and we feared the worst. However, we were able to get up there when some roads opened last weekend to find the cabin safe and undamaged.” Earlier generations of the Watkins family preceded Phil as Colorado stained glass creators (Brown Palace, First Unitarian Church …) and are part of Colorado’s history. Their Bernese mountain dog Henry wandered into the photo she shot of the roaring river, carrying bits of debris to help with cleanup. “We were so fortunate and I would like

The St. Vrain River runs by the cabin of Jane and Phil Watkins, owners of Watkins Stained Glass in Englewood. They were thankful to find that their cabin was unharmed in recent flooding. Henry, their Bernese mountain dog, helped clean up debris. Courtesy photo by Jane Watkins to do something to help the flood victims. … I do this fair only because it is a fundraiser for the Littleton Library and Museum. Watkins Stained Glass made the stained glass window in the Children’s Room and it feels good to help the library in whatever way we can.” She now has eight different designs, including the 2003 blizzard, 9/11 sunset, starry nights inspired by Van Gogh — and pouring rains and floods. As she has in

the past, she wrote a “Christmas on Main Street” poem and she will presumably have copies at the craft fair.

if you go The Annual Friends of the Library/Museum Craft Fair will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Oct. 5 at Ketring Park, just north of the Littleton Museum, 6028 S. Gallup St., Littleton. Art by 300 artisans will be available, as will food and beverages.

I have the deepest respect for Denver restaurant owner and super chef Jennifer Jasinski (Rioja, Bistro Vendome, Euclid Hall) for her stellar performance in Bravo’s “Top Chef Masters,” which ended sadly not in her favor on Sept. 25. In losing, as part of the final three, she was nothing but gracious, of course. Here’s what James Oseland, editor-in-chief of Saveur magazine, had to say about the end results: “I thought I had a handle on Jennifer’s excellence as a cook, and then during the finale meal, she served us her paella gnocchi. My God, it was the single best dish I ate all season — so perfectly balanced, so beautifully executed, so lovely to look at. Unfortunately, for her chances at winning the season, her other three courses — while very, very good — didn’t come anywhere near the glory of that dish. Still, if we’re handing out prizes for individual plates of food, this one is the season five gold-medal winner.” Not to be overlooked was her remarkable job of snaring the most money for her charity: $35,000 for Work Options for Women, a Denver nonprofit that teaches food service skills to women in poverty. “I have no regrets at all about this experience,” Jasinski said after being defeated by chef Douglas Keane. “Top Chef Masters” win or lose aside, Sept. 25 was still a good day for the Denver chef. Two of her restaurants, Rioja and Euclid Hall, were named among the Top 25 Best Restaurants in the October edition of 5280 magazine.

Arapahoe Philharmonic promises exotic concert

Duesberry retrospective set to open at museum Greenwood Village painter prefers working outdoors

Anniversary show set for Mission Hills Church

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com

Prolific painter Joellyn Duesberry, a Greenwood Village resident, opens a retrospective exhibit of her oil paintings Oct. 5 at the Loveland Museum/Gallery, where it will remain until January 12, 2014. A variety of events, classes and public programs will accompany the exhibition. Duesberry’s website artist statement speaks of her preference for painting “en plein air,” outdoors, when weather permits. She has created an oversized easel structure that can secure her large canvases in the windy and adverse conditions she sometimes experiences, especially in the west. In bad weather, she sometimes makes monoprints from her paintings and may tear them to create collages. “From my first landscape painting, I became a part of the landscape, with a good animal understanding of it while within it,” she said. Paintings in the exhibit range from small canvases to massive triptychs and represent her work from the 1980s to today. Her distinctive style presents strong, swooping, sometimes swirling brushstrokes in earth tones and natural greens that draw a viewer into the site. Primarily self-taught, she began her painting career in New York City, but in 1986, she got a National Endowment for the Arts grant to paint for a month with wellknown California abstract artist Richard Diebenkorn. After that, she felt compelled to move to Colorado for its light and dark contrasts and landscapes.

IF YOU GO The Loveland Museum/Gallery is at 503 N. Lincoln Ave. Loveland. Gallery hours: 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays; 10a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursdays; 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays; 12 to 4 p.m. Sundays. Admission is $5. (Free days Nov. 6, Dec. 12, Jan. 10) Guided tours with a docent every Friday. 970-962-2410,

“Aqueduct Early Morning, MT” by Landscape painter Joellyn Duesberry, a Greenwood Village resident, is included in an exhibit of her work at the Loveland Museum/Gallery through Jan. 12, 2014. Courtesy image She has offered workshops, on her Greenwood Village farm and elsewhere, called “Abstraction Masquerading as Landscape,” which would suggest that the Diebenkorn experience remains part of her inner makeup, after years of painting all over the world. Many canvases do verge on abstraction, although clearly landscapes. She will exhibit in a visiting artists show at the Art Students League of Denver this fall and her “Memory Time Lapse Ground Zero” will be at the Fulginiti Pavilion for Bioethics and Humanities at the Anschutz Medical campus. She will make three appearances at the Loveland Museum/Gallery: a members- only preview on Oct. 3, an artist demonstration at 2 p.m. Nov. 2 and a gallery talk at 5:30 p.m. January 12.

The Arapahoe Philharmonic performs its “60th Anniversary Celebration Concert” on Oct. 11, conducted by Devin Patrick Hughes in his first year at the orchestra’s helm. The orchestra plays in the large sanctuary of Mission Hills Church in Littleton. Pianist Jamie Shaak will be featured soloist, performing the “Egyptian Piano Concerto” by Saint-Saens, which Hughes describes as “rarely played and undeservedly so.” Shaak, a Denver native, has a long history of performing with the orchestra. Also on the program: Stravinsky’s “Firebird Suite” and Berlioz’s “Roman Carnival Overture.” “Along with bringing in a scent of opera with Berlioz’s `Roman Carnival Overture’ (originally taken from his initiallyfailed, but wonderful opera `Benvenuto Celinni’), and a taste of ballet, this concert has a taste of exoticism,” Hughes said in a news release. “Stravinsky’s music to the `Firebird’ was the beginning of a style that would shatter the music world by challenging the very nature of dance and art music. `The Firebird’ is marked by a gorgeous, rich and romantic, although at times foreboding, atmosphere and a triumphant finale, that would not be repeated in his following ballets, `Petrochka’ and `Rites of Spring.’” The orchestra learned recently that it had received a grant of $10,000 from Colorado Creative Industries to support its 60th season celebration. It also receives funds from the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District and from individuals. Future programs will include: “Carmina Burana” on Nov. 8; a holiday concert on Dec. 6; “Made in America” on Feb. 7; “Classic Traditions” on March 14 and “Love’s Arrow” (“Carmen” highlights in concert) on May 9.

IF YOU GO The Arapahoe Philharmonic’s 60th Anniversary Concert will be at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 11 at Mission Hills Church, 620 Southpark Drive, Littleton. Tickets: $25/$20/$5, 303-781-1893, www.arapahoe-phil.org.

Young playwright’s work recognized ‘Very Special Arts’ award goes to Arapahoe student By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Mickey Liebrecht, an Arapahoe High School junior, was one of nine high school students from across the nation who received the 2013 VSA (Very Special Arts) Playwright Discovery Awards. It meant a weekend of participation in pre-professional activities at the John F. Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., working with the other students and theater professionals — actors, directors, playwrights — who coached and mentored the young artists as they refined their skills. The competition encourages high school students to look at their world and address how disability affects lives. The play could be about real or fictional characters. The 2013 recipients were chosen from more than 150 applicants. Liebrecht’s play, “Broken Bodies,” was one of three selected for a professional stage reading, and a 10-minute excerpt, her Scene Five, was live-streamed from the Millenium Stage on Sept. 1, broadcast on the Kennedy Center website and archived for

5th Annual Women in Leadership Conference Inspires Women

KWGN Anchorwoman Natalie Tysdal giving the keynote address at the 5th Annual Leadership Awards Luncheon.

On Friday, September 20th, the South Metro Denver Women in Leadership (WIL) hosted its fifth Annual Women’s Leadership Conference themed “WIL to Prosper.” This exciting and enlightening event took place at the Embassy Suites DTC and included free mammograms, 9 different morning and afternoon break-out sessions, the Annual Women’s Leadership Awards Luncheon, and a cocktail reception to end the day. The conference was a great experience for the 165 business women who attended. The early morning hour of 7:30 featured a delicious buffet breakfast as the gathering women listened as Chamber President & CEO John Brackney and current WIL Chair Gina Kaelin-Westcott of Extreme Relationship Management welcomed the ladies and gave insights regarding the day’s events. Several Chamber Investors took advantage of the opportunity to present their products and services at booths throughout the day. Kuni Honda on Arapahoe, Schomp Automotive, Arbonne International, Park Meadows, Silpada Jewelry, Take Shape for Life, Lovett Family Chiropractic and Wellness Center, University of Colorado Hospital

and the South Metro Denver Small Business Development Center were present with an enthusiastic audience. The 5th Annual Women’s Leadership Awards Luncheon began with a presentation by Heather Halpape, Public Affairs Manager for Safeway Denver, of a check for $3000 to Project C.U.R. E. Laurie Porter for Project C.U.R. E. spoke on the great work the organization does with getting much needed medical supplies set to developing countries. Outstanding women who have demonstrated outstanding leadership in their businesses and community were then honored. To rounds of applause Pamela Kelly of Park Meadows was christened Outstanding Leader of the Year Holly Mullins, Farmers Insurance Agent/Owner was named Emerging Business Leader of the Year, Bridget Lovett, Co-Owner of Lovett Family Chiropractic and Wellness Center gained Community Leader of the Year, Kristie Nelson, Realtor with Remax Alliance was the Inspirational Leader of the Year, and Leah Dirks, Vice President at 1st Bank was named Philanthropic Leader of the Year. KWGN anchor Natalie Tysdal was the keynote speaker for the luncheon. During her honest and sometimes emotional presentation, Natalie spoke on her decision to become a reporter in order to be sure that people were portrayed by the media with compassion and integrity. Her conflicts with being a woman in a male-dominated arena and her stance on what is appropriate to report and what is not were covered as well as her new entrepreneurial endeavor, EverWise Entertainment. The conference presented 9 seminars including three panel discussions. Semi-

nar topics were wide ranging and included Empowerment by Dynamic Leadership, The Power of Saying “No”, Making Connections, Maximizing Social Media, Mastering Your Influence and Credibility, Creating Culture, Time and Stress Management, Branding Yourself and Your Business and Strategic Thinking. Throughout the day, the University of Colorado’s “Pink Lifesaver” mobile mammogram bus was parked in front of the hotel, offering free breast screening to any conference participant who wished. Others took the chance to sit in and experience the new 2014 Honda CRV and Mini convertible presented by Kuni Honda on Arapahoe and Schomp Automotive. The day ended with a Networking Cocktail event in order to allow the attendees the opportunity to unwind and share their experiences among themselves. A variety of WIL supporters held drawings for items such as gift baskets, and evenings out on the town during the event. The day’s events were sponsored by Safeway, University of Colorado Hospital, Park Meadows, and Schomp Automotive. The Chamber’s Women In Leadership Group brings together women of different backgrounds: business leaders, activists, educators, and many others. They feature influential and inspirational businesswomen as speakers at many Chamber investor sites to share their career path, the challenges they have overcome and new ways to help businesses of all sizes to prosper through Collaboration, Empowerment and Transformation .

reflects an ongoing debate regarding treatment of deafness.) “I had been watching `Switched at Birth,’” Liebrecht said regarding the inspiration for her play. The award-winning TV series in the first to use deaf and hard-ofhearing actors and scenes shot in American Sign Language. At the Kennedy Center, “I got to meet real directors and mentors and was told to `keep running with it.’ … Seeing it performed onstage, I thought I was daydreaming,” said Liebrecht, who was the youngest playwright there. VSA, a program of the Kennedy Center, was founded 35 years ago by Ambassador Jean Kennedy Smith to provide arts and education opportunities for people with disabilities and increase access to the arts for all. The AHS student is a longtime member of the Young Voices of Colorado choir, where she learned to read and make music. She is enrolled in honors and AP courses and will continue to write — a craft she has pursued since fifth grade, when a teacher who recognized a budding talent urged her mother to bribe her if necessary to keep her interested in writing. “I daydreamed a lot,” she recalls. We will want to watch for her name in lights some day in the future.

‘Colorado Creates’ grants go to local groups State money is match for federal NEA funds By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@ourcoloradonews. com In early summer, word went out to Colorado’s arts organizations announcing nine regional review panels across the state would consider applications for “Colorado Creates” grants. In fiscal year 2012-13, 133 grants totaled $1,048,500; for 2013-14, 150 grants were announced on Sept. 23, totaling $1,125,000. The state arts agency, Colorado Creative Industries, serves both large and small communities, and

organizations from Arapahoe and Douglas counties were included in the new awards. Margaret Hunt, director of Colorado Creative Industries, said: “These grants support the artists and creative entrepreneurs who are critical to Colorado’s economy. There are over 186,000 jobs in our state’s creative sector, making it the fifth-largest employment cluster.” Funding comes from a combination of state money, budgeted by the legislature, as a matching grant for National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) funds. “This year shows a nice state increase,” Hunt said. “We had been severely cut back.” Panelists, who are from the

Warriors can’t find range with bats Arapahoe team battles hard but loses softball game to Mullen By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Winning softball games requires good defense, solid pitching and timely hitting. On Sept. 26, Arapahoe had the fielding and pitching elements, but Warrior bats didn’t find the range and they lost to Mullen, 6-2. “Our defense looked good today, pitching looked good today, but our bats are just too inconsistent,” said Warriors coach Jeannie Krueger. “We are working on hitting in every practice because you have to hit the ball. I don’t think it is a matter of the pitching because most of the girls play competitive summer softball and have seen these pitchers before. I think a lot of it is mental, and the girls are thinking too much when they come to the plate.” The loss leaves the Warriors 3-9 in league and 4-13 overall as they head into the home stretch of the schedule. Arapahoe traveled to Village Green Park Oct. 1 to play Cherry Creek, and then are on their home field at DeKoevend Park Oct. 3 to play Cherokee

Trail, the game that ends the regular season. Mullen came into the Sept. 26 game 9-3 overall, which includes an 8-2 league record, so the Mustangs are battling hard to capture one of the top spots in the league. The Mustangs scored a pair of runs early and combined aggressive base running and timely hits to push four runs across the plate in the top of the sixth inning. But the Warriors kept battling. A walk, sacrifice bunt, stolen base and fielder’s choice resulted in Arapahoe scoring a run in the home half of the sixth. After holding the Mustangs scoreless in the top of the final inning, the Warriors sought to put together a solid rally in the bottom of the seventh. Michaela Shea was hit by a pitch, went to second on a wild pitch and went to third on another wild pitch. Caroline McPhillips put down a well-placed bunt, allowing Shea to score, and Morgan Medina, who walked and moved up on the wild pitch, moved to third base with only one out. But a pair of strikes ended the inning and the game, giving Mullen the 6-2 win. Krueger said things have changed for her team. “Our bats were our strength early in the season, but as the season progressed, hits were harder to come by

so we had to depend on solid defense and good pitching to be competitive,” she said. “I think our girls have played well, and the good news is just about all these girls are underclassmen so we should be a better, more competitive team next season.” The Warriors expected to have two pitchers this season but, a week into the season, one pitcher went down with a knee injury, so Arapahoe had depended on freshman Ashlynn Krueger to do all mound duty for the team. “When I was about 8 and playing recreational league softball, my coach asked me if I wanted to pitch, I said yes and I’ve been at ever since,” the freshman said. “I found that I really liked to be the pitcher because you have the ball every play.” She said she has sought to improve her techniques by working with a pitching coach. She said, over the years, the coach has helped her develop her catalog of pitches to include a fastball, a change-up, a drop ball, a rise ball and a curve. “My most effective pitch is my drop ball. I don’t know why, it just seems to work best for me,” she said. “During the off season, I plan to work on my attitude plus try to tune up my mechanics so I can throw faster, harder and move the ball around in the strike zone.”

Eagles edge Lions 2-0 in soccer Evenly matched teams battle for the entire 80 minutes of game By Tom Munds

tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com Fans watched a classic high school soccer match between two evenly matched teams Sept. 24 when Heritage got a goal in each half to edge Littleton 2-0 at Littleton High School Stadium. Both teams played an uptempo style and it was a constant battle to win the ball and mount a successful attack that stretched from one end of the field to the other. Each team mounted attacks, put solid shots on goal and both goalies, Riccardo Cominelli for Heritage and Edgar Cervantes for Littleton, made difficult plays to keep the ball out of the net. After the game, Heritage coach Adam Buseck said his young team played very well. “We graduated 14 or 15 seniors from last year’s team that were the Continental League champs, so we have a lot of young kids in starting roles this season,” the coach said. “We played good soccer and the win tonight against a crosstown rival was important as we move ahead this season.”

Littleton coach Pedja Vajzovic agreed it was a tough game. “I thought we played them even in the midfield but we gave up two goals in close,” he said. “We had chances and I thought we had a stronger attack, but we didn’t score the goals. We deserved the win but we gave away two goals.” The Sept. 24 battle was a good one from the opening kickoff. About four minutes into the game, Heritage mounted a sustained attack, drove in close and Jacob Bruno put the ball into the net. The score remained unchanged until just past the midway mark in the second half. Heritage had a free kick and Conrad d’Leeuwen lofted the ball into the mouth of the goal. Teammate Johannes Coopeneur out jumped the players around him and headed the ball past the diving goalie and into the net. Eagles coach Buseck said his team played well against Littleton. He said he feels the defense is one of the strengths of the team. “We have two strong seniors helping anchor our defense,” he said. “We are working on our offense and it is coming along.” Eagle senior midfielder Josh Peil said Sept. 24 was a really big game for the Heritage team. “Littleton is a very good team and it was a battle out there tonight,” he said after the game. “They came out, gave it every-

thing they had and the game was well played by both teams. Fortunately, we put a couple balls into the back of the net, which gave us the win. We had sort of a rough start this year, but the win tonight is a plus as we head into the rest of the season.” Vajzovic said his team played well, and it is always tough to swallow a loss to a rival and league opponent. “We fought hard in spite of the fact we are a young team with only five seniors on the roster,” he said. “All the guys played well, but there were a couple mistakes by the net and they got the two goals. We put this behind us and keep battling as we head into the second half of the season.” Littleton senior Will Paton said the game was all about the Lions sticking together even though they gave up two unlucky goals, something that sometimes gets a team down. “We didn’t let down after goals and kept after it. Heritage is a good team and it was a battle as both teams kept pushing the ball and looking for openings that weren’t there,” the Lions captain said. “I play outside midfield and I like it there because you can see what is going on all over the field. I used to play defense but moved up into the midfield.” He said soccer is his game but he also swims for the Lions.

The long Sept. 27 road trip to Pueblo didn’t end well for Englewood High School football players, as they lost 4813 to Pueblo County. “We don’t seem to travel well. The trip was long, road construction delayed us so we arrived late and it seemed we were out of sync from the get-go,” Pirates coach Jay Graves said. “When we got on the field, we made mistakes, and Pueblo County is a good team, so they took advantage of those errors to help them win the game.” The coach said it is essential for team members to put the Sept. 27 experience behind them, because the Pirates have to be ready to go as they open the league campaign Oct. 4 when

“I am having fun and it is a great senior season for me,” she said A lot of players contributed to the win over Elizabeth. The Pirates collected 14 hits, 13 walks and stole three bases. Seven players drove in runs. Madison Ostrowski was 2-for-3 and drove in three runs for Englewood. Englewood had to make some lineup changes earlier this season when starting catcher Maddie Smith suffered a shoulder injury and the coach asked Tori Harris to move into the position. “I was kind of nervous because I

they are at home against Fort Morgan. “Fort Morgan is a solid football team,” Graves said. “We know that, if we are to win, we have to be ready to play our best football, because this the first of the five league games that all count if you want to go to the postseason playoffs,” The game against Fort Morgan will be played Oct. 4 at Englewood High School Stadium. The kickoff is scheduled at 7 p.m. Admission is $5 for adults and $3 for students with school identification. The coach said a bright spot in the game against Pueblo County was the continued good play of senior Pedro Gutierrez. Gutierrez, who prefers to be called Gerardo, is a starter at tight end on offense and at linebacker on defense. “I like to be on defense the best,” he said. “On defense, you just go out and hit people instead of being on offense

where you have to remember all the plays and routes you have to run.” He said, at linebacker, he sees the whole field and moves to try to make a solid hit on the other team’s running back. “I think the thing I like the best is being out there on the field with my teammates who are like my brothers,” he said. “I guess it sounds a little cheesy, but these are friends you have known forever and this is your last season playing football together, so it is a very important time together.” He said he is confident about this season as the attitude of the players is better and the coaching is better. Personally, he said he has slimmed down a little but is stronger, so he feels he can do his job better both on offense and on defense. “I like football. It is fun,” he said. “But I am a baseball player. Baseball is my favorite sport and I can’t wait for spring.”

found out the day before that I was going to catch and we were scheduled to play four games in a row,” Harris said. “I had done some catching two years ago but I had been in center field since then, so when the coach asked me to catch, I was a little rusty.” She said the largest adjustment she had to make was in her throwing motion. She said, from center field, you have to extend your arm to make the long throw. But, she said, as the catcher, you just have to sort of flick the ball as quickly as you can. “I am getting comfortable behind the plate now,” Harris said. “But I am still a little nervous when I have to make a throw to second base.” She said her pitching has improved too. She started the season fifth in the

lineup and, because she is getting on base so often, she now is the leadoff hitter. “Overall this is a great season,” the sophomore said. “Everyone gets along and we are having a lot of fun playing softball.” Chapman said it has been a fun season for Englewood softball. “This team has good chemistry and they get along so they are a tight knit group of players,” the coach said. “We have been playing good defense from the start and it has helped us to win games that we are hitting better. “The girls have learned to put down the bunt when it is needed and all the players have become smarter on the bases. This is a good team and now we just need to take that step and get to the playoffs.”
