Cycling in high gear Golden a bicycling community on the move By Glenn Wallace
gwallace@ourcoloradonews.com This is the first in a three-part series about bicycling and its role in the Golden community. Part two, focusing on the business of cycling, will appear next week. It’s summer, and on the last Tuesday of June, it seemed like half the city took part in the that edition of the Golden Bicycle Cruise. Hundreds of people milled around the cruise staging area and the bicycle racks. They ranged in age from infants to the elderly. Some came just to enjoy the festive atmosphere and the live music, and perhaps get something to eat and drink. Most, however, came to ride. The theme of the June ride was “superheroes,” as the plethora of capes and spandex clearly demonstrated. Adam “Bo” Boe, a manager at the Golden Bike Shop, says there is nothing extraordinary about cycling in Golden except that 30 to 40 percent of the community is connected to it in some way. “The cycling community here is blowing up, exponential growth,” Boe said as he surveyed the crowd at the bike cruise. Among those community members was Jordanna Quinn. She sported a red cape, as did her 3-year-old daughter, Avery. Quinn said her family was quite bicycle focused, using it as their primary way of transportation, including her means of commuting to work in Denver. “Between all of us, we have about eight bikes,” Quinn said. The allure of the cycling lifestyle is clear, according to Quinn. “It’s fun. It’s easy. It’s exercise. It’s outdoors, and you can do it with your POSTAL ADDRESS

‘It’s fun. It’s easy. It’s exercise. It’s outdoors, and you can do it with your friends.’ Jordanna Quinn friends,” she said. Down the street from the bike cruise is the office of the Bicycle Racing Association of Colorado, run by Chris McGee. “We were a motorcycle town 10, 15 years ago, and now we’re a bicycle town,” McGee said. A quick look around the city quickly reveals the ways in which this is true. Bicycles parked outside businesses on Washington Avenue outnumber motorcycles nowadays. At certain businesses, they outnumber the
cars too. McGee said it is amazing that a city of Golden’s size could support five bicycle shops. He said a cluster of bicycle-related companies call Golden home as well. With so many riding opportunities, active competitive race, and a bicycle-friendly City Council, both McGee and Boe said the local cycling trend showed no signs of slowing. “With so many active people in and around Golden, I only see it growing,” Boe said.
Things are getting hot in Jefferson County this fire season. In the last four weeks, six named fires have occurred within the county’s borders. “And I’d say we’ve lost count of the small fires that went unnamed because they were quickly extinguished,” Jeffco Sheriff’s Department spokeswoman Jacki Kelley.

Still, Sheriff Ted Mink warns that the dry, hot weather being seen along the Front Range is similar to what was seen last year. At the end of June, he announced a fire ban for all land to the west of State Highway 93 and C-470. Kelley said the area would need days of considerable rain to defuse the level of fire danger. Beyond the potential loss of life and property, all these fires have other effects, straining law enforcement resources and costing county taxpayers. Only five deputies are typically on patrol in the mountain regions of the county. “If we’ve got two of them chasing fire calls, that spreads us pretty thin,” Mink said, adding that he had authorized some overtime for patrollers to do nothing but reHeat continues on Page 18

Love planted here sprouts in Africa On an unseasonably cold April day three years ago, snow broke from the sky and chilled business for a Castle Rock garage sale. But high school student Hanna Tenerowicz and her friends in the French Honor Society slapped high fives in jubilation. They had raised $150, enough to pay for two Congolese girls to stay in school another year and lessen their risk of being married at 13 or 14 in exchange for money to feed their families. “They were just so excited that we raised enough to sponsor a girl,” said Anne Damanti, Hanna’s French teacher at Castle View High School. But Hanna, 19, a wisp of a young woman who just completed her freshman year at Wellesley College near Boston, wants to do more. Two weeks ago she left for the Democratic Republic of Congo to document the lives of schoolgirls, bring back their hopes and ideas for community transformation, and establish connections to help those dreams come true. “Gender equality makes a difference,” Hanna, whose soft voice conveys conviction with quiet, deep passion, said before leaving. “It’s a domino effect on all kinds of things.” The story of how this came to be — that a girl so shy Anne often couldn’t hear her speak in class has grown into a young
woman daring to change lives — converges on a shared connection to the French language and a motivation to help. It is a story of compassion, determination and, quite simply, courage. Because it takes bravery to stretch beyond the familiar, to push cultural boundaries, to try to make a difference in a world so big and complicated we sometimes wonder whether what we do matters. Finally, perhaps most importantly, it is a story of empowerment. And it begins with Sandra Bea, who emigrated to Colorado in 2001 from the French-speaking D.R. Congo to continue her studies in education. A French teacher, she graduated from Metropolitan State University of Denver and today is dean of students at Global Village Academy, a language immersion school in Denver. The daughter of an engineer of a local mining company in Mbuji-Mayi, the country’s third largest city, Sandra grew up without worries: “I was eating three times
a day; I went to school with a car. I grew up really easily. It was not hard like the other girls are facing right now. We never had any conversation about `You are going to get married in two days because we don’t have the money.’” It wasn’t until she was 22 and student teaching in her former high school that she understood the reality. Every two weeks, it seemed, another student would leave. They were, she learned, getting married. “Why?” she asked. “Because, Madam, we are not like you,” they told her. “You can afford it. We cannot afford it.” “That,” Sandra said, “broke my heart.” So, four years ago, she founded the nonprofit Muanjadi Organization, a women’s empowerment project that helps girls complete their high school education and avoid early arranged marriages. “For many parents in the Congo, marrying off their daughters constitutes a source of revenue in a country where people live with less than $1 a day with a GDP per capita of $300,” Sandra writes on the organization’s website. Through fundraising and donations, the organization — whose name means Brave Woman — provides tuition and supplies for girls in seventh through 12th grades at the same school Sandra attended. Cost for one girl for one year of high school: $75.
Cost for one year of college: $350. Anne, originally from Belgium, met Sandra and learned about Muanjadi at a state world language conference three years ago. She brought the idea back to her French Honor Society, which was looking for a community service project. Students learned how most girls eat just one meal a day and how the school has no water or electricity. They compared the cost of one year of high school to what teens here might spend on fancy jeans or a Starbucks coffee habit. “That’s not a lot to have the freedom to actually go to school and try to be something,” Anne said. That, Hanna said, coupled with the specter of forced marriage, “was a pretty powerful thing to learn about.” Last school year, Muanjadi sponsored 100 girls, 11 of them thanks to Castle View. The honor society, which has corresponded with the girls through letters, phone and Skype, also is sponsoring a student in college — one of the girls it began sponsoring in high school three years ago. Other organization sponsors include Kent Denver Academy, Metro State, Colorado State University, a lawyers’ organization and many individuals and families. But Hanna hopes to take the program one step further. Healey continues on Page 3

Healey Continued from Page 2
Her new project is Portrait of a Brave Woman. Accompanied by Sandra, she has spent the past two weeks interviewing — in French — and filming girls at the school about their lives, but also about their ideas to implement change in their communities. She plans to share the mini-documentaries with artists who will be encouraged to create paintings about a particular girl whose story connects with them. Proceeds from the sale of those paintings will go toward the girls’ personal and community goals, such as becoming a nurse or train-
ing midwives to decrease the high infant mortality rate. The objectives are several: to empower Congolese girls, improve their communities and create meaningful cross-cultural connections with Western artists and buyers. “I hope community improvement brought about by women’s ideas will help to create more positive and respectful attitudes towards women in Mbuji-Mayi,” Hanna, also an artist, said. And “I hope the project empowers the girls themselves by helping them to personally make a difference.” Her dream is unquestionably big. But, Anne said, “There is nothing, anymore, that she can’t do.” Hanna’s visit, Sandra said, is the concrete realization of what dreams and hard
work can accomplish. And having someone their age talk to them and share ideas with them is inspirational: “You don’t know me, but you came to give me a chance to become someone.” Which is exactly what Hanna wanted to do after reading “Half the Sky,” a book about the oppression of women and girls in the developing world. “It really changed my outlook on the world,” she said. “I was really interested in doing whatever I could to make a difference.” Hanna returns this week with her videos and interviews and dream. “I’m definitely prepared for this to change my life,” she said before leaving.
Without a doubt, it will. But, in a school half a world away, girls are surely changed, too, because a stranger from a different life cared enough to learn about theirs. That’s empowerment. The kind that makes a difference. To learn more about Hanna Tenerowicz and Portrait of a Brave Woman, go to www. muanjadi.blogspot.com.

Laboratory gets into hot water Liquid cooled data center sets new standard In The Gateway Station Building
By Glenn Wallace
gwallace@ourcoloradonews.com The most energy-efficient data center in the world is being assembled at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Golden. “We’re NREL, so we try to walk the walk,” NREL spokeswoman Heather Lammers said, as she led a sneak-peek tour of the new data center. The new computer center is in the latest addition to the NREL campus, the Energy Systems Integration Facility (ESIF), which is scheduled for a public unveiling next month. The ESIF facility was constructed last fall, and the interior has slowly been put to use. Lammers said the entire building is something of a laboratory to try out different energy technologies and how they could be combined. “So, we can have a solar-energy system running on one end and a smart house on the other, and see how they interact,” Lammers said. For larger experiments, like running computer simulations to find the optimal arrangement of power-generating wind mills on a ridge, or calculating nationwide power fluctuations, the scientists at NREL need some hefty computing power. ESIF is designed to house a computer center with more than a petaflop (a millionbillion calculations per second) of processing power. “This gives our scientists access to the processes and phenomena they normally wouldn’t have,” NREL Director of Computational Science Steve Hammond said, calling the center the most efficient in the world. While the data center will help scientists improve energy technologies, the physical racks of

One row of processors is positioned under an air-intake hood, where they help provide hot air for ESIF. A new rack of computers — prototypes from Hewlett-Packard — uses water to keep the processor chips cool, while providing hot water for the building. “Traditional thinking is that liquids and data centers don’t mix,” Hammond said. “We wanted to demonstrate that it could be done safely and reliably.”
The new cooling set up is also expected to save NREL substantial money, Hammond said. The data center will be capable of warming water above 100 degrees Fahrenheit. That water will then be used for radiant heat and evaporative cooling throughout the building. With the energy efficiencies, and cost savings being demonstrated by NREL, Hammond said, he predicts the ESIF facility will set a new datacenter standard.

Work began July 1 to demolish the westbound lanes of the Highway 58 bridge that spans Tucker Gulch and Ford Street. During the demolition, Ford Street and the Tucker Gulch multiuse trail have been closed. CDOT Project Engineer Steve Sherman said demolition should be complete by Friday, July 12. He said demolition was initially intended to be completed before July 4. “But the concrete is crumbling a little more than expected, up on the bridge deck,” Sherman said, making it difficult to dismantle the northern section of the bridge from above. He said the extended closure period would allow his crew time to knock down the pillars and pilings under the bridge once the deck is successfully removed. Vehicle-mounted jackhammers could be seen on the bridge last week, knocking out sections of roadway, while cement powder and pebbles streamed down. Other excavator
CDOT crews working on demolishing the Highway 58 bridge over Ford Street last week. Ford Street under the highway will remain closed through July 12. Photo by Glenn Wallace equipment had begun digging into the concrete sidings on either side of the bridge span. Nearby Ford Street resident Anna, who withheld her last name, said her husband works the night shift and was doing his best to sleep through the
racket. “We’re dealing with it, and they’ll get it done quick,” Anna said. “And if you’ve seen under the bridge, it needs to be done.” The bridge was originally built in 1957, according to CDOT. “It’s structurally deficient. That’s the technical term,” Sherman said. “Everyone could see from underneath the falling concrete, the exposed rebar.” Sherman said Ford Street and the Tucker Gulch path would still be subject to closures occasionally, as work progresses. The CDOT bridge replacement will happen in two phases. Currently, traffic in both directions is limited to only one lane, moving all vehicles to the southern side of the bridge while the northern half is demolished and rebuilt. Sherman says that phase should be completed in November. “Then we’ll switch everything over and start work on the southern half,” he said. The entire project should take just under a year, and have a total cost of about $7 million according to Sherman. A public information line on the project is available at 720-441-2174.
Rally calls for immigration reform Activists lean on GOP to back bill that passed Senate By Vic Vela
vvela@ourcoloradonews.com A group of immigration activists rallied in Denver on July 2 to call on Colorado’s Republican U.S. representatives to support an immigrationreform bill that recently passed the Senate. “We are calling on our Republican congressional delegation leaders to step up, to exercise leadership, to show bipartisan willingness, to follow the will of the people of Colorado,” said Julien Ross of the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition, during a rally that was held outside of Denver’s Republican Party headquarters. The group waved Americans flags and held signs that signaled its desire for immigration reform at the federal level. Immigration reform is high on President Obama’s second-term priority list, but it’s an effort that faces an unknown future in the Republicancontrolled House. The bill — which passed the Democratic-controlled Senate by a 68-32 vote on June 27 — overhauls immigration laws by allowing a pathway to citizenship for about 11 million undocumented workers. It also puts provisions in place that strengthen border security. Many House Republicans have expressed concern over security issues in the bill, and some party members are opposed to a bill that they believe grants amnesty for those living here illegally. House Speaker John Boehner, ROhio, has said through national media outlets that he will not bring the bill up for a vote if the majority Republicans
Immigration activists rally outside Denver’s Republican Party headquarters on July 2 in support of an immigration reform bill that is making its way through Congress. Photos by Vic Vela in his caucus do not support it. The purpose of the Denver rally, which was organized by Coloradans for Citizenship Now, was to put pressure on Colorado’s four House Republicans — Reps. Mike Coffman, Doug Lamborn, Cory Gardner and Scott Tipton — to support the Senate bill. Through a statement issued after the rally, Democratic Rep. Ed Perlmutter joined rally organizers in calling on House Republicans to pass immigration reform, saying that by allowing undocumented persons a pathway to citizenship it would “lead to increased job growth and a stronger economy.” “I hope House Republican leadership will work with Democrats in a bipartisan way to protect our borders and ensure those who are working hard, paying taxes, getting an education, learning English and not committing crimes are able to achieve

their American Dream as a citizen of our country,” Perlmutter said. Colorado House Republicans are concerned that the Senate bill doesn’t go far enough in strengthening border security. Coffman said in a statement that in 1986, when Congress passed a major immigration reform bill, the promises made “on enforcement and border security were not promises kept.” “I will look for solutions in the House that will provide for the reforms necessary to not only secure our borders but to verify that they remain secure,” Coffman said in the statement. Coffman spokesman Dustin Zvonek did not wish to comment beyond what was in the statement. Rally speakers brought up Coffman’s upcoming re-election race, a contest that surely will receive national attention.

n Pursuing happiness, out my back door
During last week’s festivities to celebrate our nation’s independence, I spent some hey’lltime reflecting on our unalienable rights nd if— granted by our Constitution — to life, eedsliberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Life and liberty were pretty easy to deilt infine. But what about happiness? Is it found through family, career, service, travel, lifehat’slong learning? Is my concept of happiness said.different than yours? neath How, and where, do I pursue my happid re-ness? So I decided to look for what makes me d thehappy. sub- In the process, I discovered that my own workpursuit of happiness starts right here, right outside my back door, actually. Here are t willfew of may favorites: traf- 1) Visiting Clear Creek where it crosses onlyKipling Street. In addition to the happy o themallards usually cooling off in the little e thepond on the east side of Kipling, I recently d re-saw a heron standing stately and elegant ouldin the reeds, a glimpse of the magical in an

Mountain was with a young friend from the Czech Republic who had never been there. It was exceptionally fun to see her surprise and wonder as we wound around to the top. We stopped a couple of times for photos of the city to the east and the mountains to the west. On our way down, as we slowed for a turn, we saw the doe. And she saw us. A road cyclist and another car stopped. In this quiet stretch of time, even in this urban-accessible place, there was a subtle communion. Our Constitution guarantees our right to pursue that which makes us happy, and this particular moment will always remain a piece of my own personal pursuit of happiness.
team work out and a stop at an Indian village. We returned to Anchorage on the Pipeline Highway. As is to be expected, the scenery is breath-taking and we were lucky enough to have very favorable weather for the majority of the trip. We almost saw the top of Mount McKinley — something rare for this time of year. While we saw a number of animals, I was surprised that we didn’t see more. It was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I highly recommend it. My next adventure took me to my sister and brother’s farm and lake just outside Columbus, Neb. My daughter, Suzie; son, BJ; and I were the only representatives from our immediate clan. We weren’t
lonely, however, as more than 40 people were there. A highlight of this adventure was a fish fry featuring more than 40 pounds of fish that had been caught in the lake. One of my nephews engineered that monumental undertaking. In a word: delicious! I got to do one of my favorite things in the world, which is taking a nap on the 100-year-old (literally) hide-a-bed (honestly) in the cabin, with a summer breeze blowing through the windows. Life doesn’t get much better than that. Until next time, I’ll see you around town.

From Alaska to Nebraska and back again
e just ost of Sher- The month of June proved to be jampacked with wonderful travel adventures. n theSeven friends and I decided that a cruise to 74. Alaska via the Inside Passage was in order. The planning actually began nearly a year ago. After all, we didn’t want to rush into anything. Our Holland America cruise left from Vancouver, British Columbia, but we discovered that it was considerably less expensive to fly to Bellingham, Wash., and take a shuttle bus to Vancouver. Our overnight stay in Vancouver whetted our appetites to plan an extended stay in that lovely city. We did have time to visit the famous Stanley Park and the Gastown Historic District, where we happened upon a delightful Italian restaurant just in time for dinner. Our cruise began late afternoon the next day. Thankfully, the seas in the inside passage are smooth and my newfound best (traveling) friend, the transdermal patch, worked very well. The cruise itinerary included stops in Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway where we went on some extraordinary excursions. Among those chosen were whale watching,
a lumberjack competition, a city tour via a “duck” (an amphibious vehicle), a narrowgauge-train trip into the mountains, and a seaplane tour of five glaciers (one of my personal favorites). There was also time to explore the towns. Tourism plays a large part in the economies of the three cities, as do the fishing and lumbering industries. After we docked in Seward, we took a bus to Anchorage where six of us rented a van and spent another three days visiting Denali National Park, and Fairbanks where we took a tour on a paddlewheel riverboat; the tour included watching a dog-sled

On my bike, I glide from shaded stream banks and wooden bridges to residential neighborhoods along West Woods Golf Club to stretches of wildlife habitat out to the reservoir. (Up at the top, I also enjoy the sun with the occasional snake or lizard.) From where I live, I can ride a 16-mile picturesque round trip up and over the reservoir. 3) Enjoying any patio, anywhere. A view of the mountains, a view of the city, a view of my neighbor’s cookout … I can pursue
happiness on a patio and simply bask in the sun, the shade, the sheer delight of something cool to drink and someplace cool to hang out. 4) Taking in Red Rocks, again. Just named the best outdoor music venue in the U.S. by Rolling Stone magazine, Red Rocks is more than an unbeatable place to attend a concert. On my recent visit to the amphitheater — in addition to the familiar-but-always-breathtaking scenic beauty — the sight of dozens (maybe hundreds) of early-morning zealots running the stairs, doing push-ups down the seats, or jumping squats up the seats was as dizzying to me as the view. 5) Looking out from Lookout Mountain.

opinions / yours and ours
Not only a time to vote, consider serving OK, it sounds hokey, but we believe it. The city council and school board elections coming up this fall — always on the uneven years — feature democracy at its best. These nonpartisan races basically involve folks who want to make a difference, and the fact that most of these positions involve little or no compensation is evidence enough. We admire the people in this group of roughly 1,500 elected officials in Colorado because public service is one of the highest callings. And as this annual event shapes up, we like to see candidates in all races. Uncontested races simply don’t provide the choices voters should have or the valuable discourse that comes from competition. We encourage citizens who observe vacant races in their districts and cities
our view to take a look in the mirror, think about stepping up, or think about asking someone else to step up. Some of the best elected officials are the ones who were recognized by others for their skills, energy and insights and then urged to run. When three or four people think a neighbor has a lot to offer, it’s time to make a phone call or knock on a door. Be bold. For those who run, we have a few friendly reminders. The odd years are the nonpartisan years. By state law, city council, school board and special
question of the week
Will Broncos win the Super Bowl? The Denver Broncos suffered an unexpected early playoff exit by a Baltimore Ravens team last season. With the start of training camp just weeks away, we asked readers if the loss and off-season moves will catapult them to a Super Bowl championship, similar to the 1996 and 1997 seasons.
Yes, this is the Broncos’ year. They needed to go through that kind of heartbreak to set them up for this season and next. They might win the next two Super Bowls! Brock Wisne
Yes, I think we are on the verge of winning a Super Bowl. Sometimes a team has to go through some adversity before it makes it to the mountain top. Gerald Wisne
Health will be a big issue. The Broncos were very lucky to have stayed so healthy last season. If the core can stay healthy, there is not a team that can stop these Broncos. Marcus Duncan
It’s tough to say. They have the team around Peyton Manning, but we know firsthand (as Broncos fans) it is hard to get over the hump and win a Super Bowl. I am cautiously optimistic. Michael Denardo

districts are nonpartisan. Although it is handy to team with their parties, we urge candidates to honor the nonpartisan framework, and we urge voters to assess candidates by looking at their character, skills and drive — not party affiliation. The late statesman Ted Strickland of Adams County once told us that the most important asset of an elected official is an open mind. To that point we do like candidates who work hard to keep learning and stay close to the pulse of a community — continually checking in with constituents and not making assumptions. And to the voters, remember to look for balance, look at your boards and council and think about what is missing. What is needed — an attorney, an engineer, a shop owner? And — not to discriminate but to diversify — if all the
members of the board have the same first digit in their ages, maybe older or younger representatives would improve the representative mix. Sam Mamet, longtime executive director of the Colorado Municipal League, which interacts with 60-70 cities around the state, often emphasizes how rewarding public service is and tells those who serve that they will look back and feel good about at least one thing they had a hand in — perhaps nobody will remember what you did, but “you’ll know” he says. And of course the act of simply contributing — recognized or not — is reward for the soul. For the most part, candidates in school board and city council races simply want to do something to better their communities. That’s good stuff. Be part of it one way or the other.
New tech engulfs thread of cultural continuity Let’s play a little game: I’m going to quote a famous line, and you’re going to try to remember what it was from. Ready? “Luke, I am your father.” Okay, that’s an easy one. How about: “Fly, my pretties, Fly!!” Getting a little harder, huh? Okay, let’s try this one on for size: “With malice toward none, with charity for all ... “ Still with me? Actually, I’m guessing there’s an interesting split of readers here: everybody over the age of about 55 probably knew the answer to all three; people between 30 and 55 probably knew the first two; and, likely, anyone under 30 has very little idea where the last two come from. Of course, the first one was easy: “Star Wars,” or, to be more accurate, “The Empire Strikes Back.” The second one, familiar to many, is from “The Wizard of Oz.” Weirdly, I don’t think my own children have ever seen that movie, though I reference it here. Growing up, we watched it once a year — it was like an event in our house the night it came on. But I haven’t seen it on television in forever, and I know I’ve never rented it for my children to watch. I was thinking about this the other day in the context of cultural continuity. There are many things that are second nature, part of the shared wisdom, of my generation and older that are not getting passed down to our children. As trivial as “Fly my pretties” is by itself, it is symptomatic of a growing chasm between generations. While there’s always been, and will always be, differences between generations, I think the separation between the generations of rotary phoneusers and of tweeters is wider than it’s ever been, which makes it difficult to maintain and pass on what holds us together. And, while “Oz” probably doesn’t matter, the last quote matters very much. Last week I spent all of my Facebook time on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday posting narrative of the Battle of Gettysburg, in honor of the
150th anniversary of that great battle. And it occurred to me that I only know Gettysburg because I chose to learn about it well after my formal education had ended; in fact, in 22 years of formal schooling, I had never once actually studied the Civil War, much less that one, pivotal battle. And, it turns out, that is true of most of my Facebook friends, and most people my age. We studied all about the horrible way America treated the Indians after the Civil War, but we never learned the names Lee, Grant, Meade, Longstreet, or Chamberlain. Which also means that we never learned about how Lincoln tried to heal a nation with that famous quote from his second inaugural. Our cultural heritage is made up of a diverse body of knowledge which can only be preserved if we choose to pass it on. Likewise, that common heritage gives us one small thread which can link the generations and give the tapestry of American life a coherence that it sometimes lacks. So, in the wake of celebrating July Fourth, let’s try to find ways to celebrate our common history — not just the bright colors of the tapestry, but the fine stitching that holds it together.

The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department was contacted at 4:40 p.m., and confirmed that the remains were human. Department spokeswoman Jacki Kelley said the hikers had been on Windy Saddle Trail Sunday afternoon. “On their way back, they got off trail into some remote terrain and found some human remains,” Kelley said. The coroner’s office, and Sheriff’s deputies combed the scene Sunday and Monday Kelley said, searching for clues as to the identity of the body, and the cause of death.

Book crafts Mandela story for children “Nelson Mandela” by Kadir Nelson Katherine Tegen Books / HarperCollins $17.99 / $19.99 Canada 32 pages Your mother sent you to your room the other day. You hate that. You didn’t think you were being naughty but Mama did, and she punished you. You had to sit in your room alone for awhile, and you cried, maybe, or pouted because it just wasn’t fair. Now imagine being locked in a room for years and years and years for no good reason. That’s what happened Mandela to a great man in Africa, and in the book “Nelson Mandela” by Kadir Nelson, you’ll read about that man and his life. Rolihlahla loved to play with his friends, fighting pretend-battles and hunting with slingshots on the grassy hills of Qunu, South Africa. But he couldn’t play forever: Rolihlahla was smart, and smartness like that needed an education. Rolihlahla’s mother knew she would miss him while he was away, and she tried hard not to cry. At school, Rolihlahla’s teacher refused to say his Xhosa name, so she called him “Nelson.” As Nelson grew, he attended the finest schools in Johannesburg. He became a lawyer so he could help his poor and powerless African countrymen. But something else bothered Nelson just as much as poverty: the South African government had a policy that split its citizens into three groups, and it wasn’t fair. They called it apartheid, and Africans hated it. So Nelson organized rallies and spoke to the people. He was jailed for speaking up, but he never stopped fighting against apartheid. He married and became a father, but he never stopped fighting. He organized rallies and protests, and never stopped fighting. A warrant for his arrest was put out, but Nelson never stopped fighting …
She said the initial investigation did not definitively indicate the gender, age, or time of death. “The remains have definitely seen some weather. It’s been there, not weeks, but much longer,” Kelley said. The remains could be transported to a specialty lab in Texas that specializes in skeletal forensics and DNA sampling, according to Kelley. She said the results of that analysis could take weeks or months. She said further details about the remains may not be released until law enforcement knows whether the death was a suicide, an accident or murder.

Until he was caught, arrested, and imprisoned. He was sent to a small island where he sat in a tiny room every day, eating cold meals and working hard labor. He was there so long that when he got out, his children had all grown up. More importantly, South Africa had ended apartheid. Finally, after almost 28 years, Nelson Mandela was set free. He was elected as South Africa’s new leader. And the people celebrated. You always want to give your child a good sense of history, whether it’s in the past or in the making. “Nelson Mandela” is a good book for both. Author Kadir Nelson gives kids just the right amount of information here; he’s honest in telling what happened, without being scary. Curious kids will appreciate that this book is made kid-friendlier with a two-page section at the end that could help answer lots of questions. But Kadir Nelson’s words are only half the appeal. Nelson is also the illustrator here, and his paintings – from the magnificent cover to every page inside – are addictive. It’s the artwork that makes this a book you’ll want to browse, whether your children are around or not. Children ages 4-7 will love this story, and I think older gradeschoolers will appreciate it, too. If your child needs a little time out for reading, “Nelson Mandela” is a book you should make room for. Book reviewer Teri Schlichenmeyer may be reached at bookwormsez@realaspen.com.

Rightsizing your next home O
ne of today’s real estate trends is appropriately named “rightsizing.” This happens when an existing home owner wants to rightsize their housing needs in terms of space, upkeep and mortgage costs. Typically, Empty Nesters or buyers in retirement are looking to rightsize, but this trend applies to anyone looking to buy their next home.One of the ways current students or even recent graduates can make themselves more attractive to prospective employers is to find the right internship. Internships are not always easy to get, and many of them don’t pay. But students who find the right internship often look back and recognize that their internship was their first step toward a rewarding career, and a step that provided valuable insight into their chosen field. To find the right internship, consider the following tips. Whether you are interested in living in a traditional neighborhood or a master-planned community full of amenities, with these simple steps you will be able to find the rightsized home to fit your needs. SPACE For the first time in many years, smaller homes have become much more dominant in the marketplace. For many, the right fitting home is smaller than ever before. The assump-
tion is that only Empty Nesters or retired adults would welcome less space, but today’s families are discovering the appeal of smaller homes. Less space means less to maintain inside and out, providing more time to enjoy the home and less time cleaning. Smaller homes also can help to rightsize costs, from the energy bill to the mortgage, which is always an attractive feature. Looking at the bigger picture, a smaller home carries a reduced carbon footprint and adds to the environmental appeal of such a decision. UPKEEP For some, the most important home amenity is maintenance or the lack thereof. A home within a masterplanned community, for example, appeals to those who have reached a point in their lives where they want to spend less time taking care of a home and more time enjoying their home. Generally designed to provide lowmaintenance properties, these communities allow for a lock-and-leave lifestyle, meaning if the homeowner wants to leave for a long weekend or an extended holiday, they simply lock their home and leave without needing to arrange to have the grass cut and watered, or snow shoveled from the sidewalk. Even if they aren’t traveling, these homeowners can also enjoy
being at home and not having those tasks on their to-do list, ever thanks to the maintenance provided by the Home Owner’s Association (HOA). COST When looking for a home, cost is oftentimes the leading factor in any search. Cost varies greatly depending on the age and size of a home, the surrounding community and a number of other factors that figure into the value of a home. When looking for your next home, make sure to consider what matters most to you – style of home, amenities, walkability, etc. – knowing the rightsize cost will affect which elements are possible. One way to rightsize your cost, yet still afford many of the community features you want, is to look in a neighborhood or master-planned community that offers multiple housing types. When a mixture of housing types is available – single-family, patio home or other style – it is much more reasonable to expect to find the rightsized mortgage to fit your financial needs. And, when you bring together home styles that appeal to everyone from young professionals and growing families, to Empty Nesters and active adults, a vibrant community is the result. As you head out to find your next home, don’t think of it as fitting in
with the Jones’, but rightsizing with your needs. After all, the Jones’ won’t be living there, so you shouldn’t buy a home with their needs in mind. ■

Who wants to try out for ‘Millionaire’? Georgia Hendricks (Lauren Shealy) and Aaron Fox (Jeffrey Roark) are two of the suspects in a Broadway murder mystery in “Curtains” at the Arvada Center.
curtains for summer boredom It’s
Arvada Center musical brings variety to stage By Clarke Reader
creader@ourcoloradonews.com
A
murder mystery. A hardened detective. A musical. A broadway cast. A modern fairy tale. “Curtains,” the Arvada Center’s summer musical, has a bit of everything for everybody. The show — with music and lyrics from John Kander and Fed Ebb (“Cabaret” and “Chicago”) — will play at the center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., until July 28. Performances will be Tuesday through Saturday at 7:30 p.m., Wednesday at 1 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday at 2 p.m. “There’s all these great different genres in the show — westerns, ‘60s musicals, romances — that we get to bring out,” said director Gavin Mayer. “It gives a really interesting perspective on all these different genres.” The story of “Curtains” takes place in 1959 at an old colonial WHAT: “Curtains” theater in Boston, where it’s opening night for the broadway-bound cast WHERE: Arvada Center of “Robin’ Hood of the Old West.” 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., Arvada Unfortunately the star of the show has been murdered, and it’s WHEN: Through July 28 up to Lieutenant Frank Cioffi to suss Tuesday - Saturday - 7:30 p.m. out the perpetrator of the crime. Cioffi — who himself is a fan Wednesday - 1 p.m. of the theater — has no shortage Saturday - Sunday - 2 p.m. of suspects from the company — COST: $36 - $76 there’s the sharp-tongued producer, a recently divorced songwriting INFORMATION: 720-898team, a pompous British director, or 7200 or www.arvadacenter.org the sweet understudy. While Mayer said the “whodunnit” aspect of the play is the story’s driving force, there’s a lot of fun to be had in looking at its different elements. He said he wanted the “Robin Hood” show within the show to feel real, and so he and the creative team at the center researched how musicals were produced in the late ‘50s and early ‘60s. “The goal for us was to create to real shows in one — ‘Curtains’ and ‘Robin Hood,’” Mayer said. “We want people to get just as lost in the plot of ‘Robin Hood’ as anything else.”

Close to home
“Curtains” is a sort of homecoming for one of the stars,
Lt. Frank Cioffi (Jim Paulos) has to find a murderer in which an entire Broadway production is suspect in the Arvada Center’s “Curtains.” Courtesy photos Erica Sweany, who plays Niki Harris, the understudy of the dead actress. Sweany is an Arvada native, who went to Pomona High School, where Mayer was her drama teacher. She currently lives and works in New York City, but she’s back home for the summer while staring in “Curtains.” “My agent got me any audition, and I was so excited when I heard that Gavin was the director of the show,” she said. “It’s great to be back here in Colorado — it’s really easy and comfortable place to be.” She also said she remembers seeing productions at the Arvada Center and going to summer theater camps that the center hosted as well, so it’s been a thrill to be back. Sweany said she has had a great time getting lost in all the different genres in the play, and while it might not be a particularly well-known work, it’s a kind of hidden gem. “The play really works well here — it’s charming, funny and has a lot of heart,” she said. “There is a lot to see, and a lot to fall in love with.”
Who wants to be a millionaire? Now, you can be, as the syndicated game show will audition Denverites on July 12, at the Seawell Ballroom at the Denver Performing Arts Complex. “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” auditions will include a timed multiple choice test and, for those people who pass, an interview with one of the show’s producers. Auditioners will be seen on a firstcome, first-served basis and producers will audition as many people as they can. Participants must be at least 18 years of age, a U.S. resident and meet all eligibility requirements. Rules and times can be found on “Millionaire’s” website at www. millionairetv.com. A new season of “Millionaire” will debut at 2 p.m. Sept. 2, on KMGH-Channel 7 with new host Cedric the Entertainer.
AvidGolfer reaches 100
Colorado AvidGolfer is celebrating a 100th milestone. Not that the local magazine is becoming a centenarian — it still has a few years to go before hitting that drive — rather CAG is publishing its 100th issue with the July edition, on newsstands and online (www. coloradoavidgolfer.com) this week. Editor Jon Rizzi realized a couple of months ago that the magazine was approaching its 100th edition. “It’s been a really great run so far,” he said. To celebrate CAG No. 100, the pages pay homage to past covers along with its current cover guy Billy Casper, whose company recently took over management of The Golf Club at Ravenna in Douglas County’s Waterton Canyon area. Other big names whose mugs have graced the coveted CAG cover include: Todd Helton (first cover), John Elway (twice), Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, Arnold Palmer, Jill McGill, Amelia Earhart (last month), Amy Van Dyken, John Lynch, Terrell Davis, Don Cheadle, Kevin Costner, David Duval, Tom Weiskopf and on and on. But Rizzi doesn’t let the fairway grass grow under his feet. He’s set his sights on Broncos QB Peyton Manning for a future cover. “He’s only been here for a year, so we’re still working on that,” Rizzi said. After celebrating the biggest issue ever in 2006 just before The International held its last tournament at Castle Pines, CAG, along with the rest of the country, figuratively boarded up the windows to brace against the recession’s storm. “We weathered the recession, which hit the golf business and publishing business very hard,” Rizzi said. “We kept our hand firmly on the tiller and navigated the waters. We pulled back from nine issues to eight issues a year, which made us a stronger publication.” Rizzi, employee No. 1, was supported by co-captain and publisher Allen Walters, employee No. 2 in the company majority Parker continues on Page 18

owned by The Baker brothers — Dick, Don and Ray. What does Rizzi hope to accomplish for the magazine’s next 100 issues? “Surviving is a good thing,” he said. “We want to continue to come up with some new ideas and new ways of covering the Colorado golf scene. We always want to be the ultimate resource for golf in Colorado.”
Bubbles and bites for charity
The American Wine Society Denver Chapter invites you to celebrate summer wines with bubbles and bites, beginning at 6 p.m. Wednesday, July 24, at The Washington Park Boathouse (Exposition Avenue between Downing and Franklin). The effervescent event benefits Sense of Security, an organization that helps to ensure that breast cancer patients receive the financial assistance they need while undergoing treatment. Your participation in this event helps to add to patients’ quality of life during this difficult time (check it out at www.senseofsecurity.org). Sense of Security is my pet charity, and I’ve been fortunate to help raise thousands of dollars for this worthy nonprofit for several years. The Boathouse overlooks the south shore of Smith Lake in the northern half of Washington Park, and is close to Exposition and Downing. Parking is available along the perimeter of the park or there is limited parking within the park using the following entrances: Marion and Virginia (north side), Exposition and Downing (west side), Kentucky and Franklin (east

Another event benefitting Sense of Security: The Bra Project for Breast Cancer has kicked off at Coquette Boutique in Cherry Creek North. Local survivors have created amazing works of bra art, which are available to the public during the Cherry Creek Arts Festival. Bidding is now open! Photos can be found on Coquette’s Facebook page (www.facebook. com/pages/Coquette-Boutique-Denver/90408419877). Stop by or call 303-3557770 to place your bid. Artists include Keri Christiansen, Anne Fanganello, Sue Miller and Joby Koren, among others. All proceeds benefit Edith Sanford Breast Cancer Foundation and Sense of Security. Bidding ends at the wrap-up event at 6 p.m. on July 12, at Coquette, 3003 E. 3rd Ave.
Blues & BBQ accepts challenge
The Duke Street Kings’ 16th Annual Blues & BBQ for Better Housing Block Party — set for July 14 in Olde Town Arvada — has accepted the challenge to raise more than $25,000 as the Silver Sponsor of the Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Work Project that benefits Habitat for Humanity. In addition to donating the money raised during the Blues & BBQ music festival, the Blues & BBQ for Better Housing Foundation will provide volunteers to help the former president build housing in Denver for those who are less fortunate. The festival runs from noon to 8 p.m. and an all-day pass is just $10. Music will be performed on three stages and you can dine and drink on Colorado’s best

Golden Hotel features veteran jazz musicians Part of growing up here in Golden meant going to our local schools. What is now the American Mountaineering Center on the corner of 10th Street and Washington Avenue was originally Golden High School and then became Golden Junior High by the time I got to seventh grade. It was there that I began playing jazz in their first jazz band started by a new band director fresh out of college. He was super enthusiastic, got us all inspired and actually spawned several students to embark on music as a career. There were a few of us who put together our own little jazz-rock band. We wrote out our own charts, used to rehearse in the basement of a local church and played at a few school functions. One of the guys in the band was my friend Kurt. His mom played piano and his dad played bass and once in a while we would congregate at his house to rehearse and his parents would play with us and give us a little guidance here and there. It was a lot of fun, but truthfully we were a little young to fully appreciate just who Kurt’s parents really were
and just how lucky we were to be jamming in their basement. As it turns out they were two of the top jazz musicians in the Denver area. His dad was Dave Rucker, a great bass player and one of the top jazz educators in the area, and his mom was Ellyn Rucker, jazz recording artist as both a pianist and a singer. If you are a jazz fan in this area, I’m sure you know who they are. We were about 12 or 13 at the time so we didn’t get out to the jazz clubs much. To us they were just Kurt’s mom and dad. Well fast forward about 40 years, and I have been able to play with both of them
professionally and count them as two of my dearest friends. Yes, they are both still extremely active and still playing great jazz all over the place. Which brings us to this week’s special event — the Clear Creek Jazz Quintet playing at the Golden Hotel. This group will feature Dave Rucker on bass, but doesn’t stop there. It includes several of the best jazz artists in the metro area. It’s fronted by jazz vocalist and CIMP Records recording star Teresa Carroll plus two of Denver’s great guitarists Ed Stephan and Mitch Chmara, as well as Jack McCutchan on drums and band leader Dave Powers on sax. This group has been playing at the Golden Hotel for three years now and will be back for three special Tuesday performances on July 23, Aug. 20 and Sept. 24. They play 6-9 p.m., so it’s perfect for having dinner while you enjoy the music. These dates have just been added and as of this writing they aren’t on the hotel’s website calendar yet, so make a note of
them. But, there is a great little video of the band on the hotel’s website so you can check it out. Go to www.thegoldenhotel. com then mouse over “Our Hotel” and click on “Live Music.” You will find a link to the video there. The Golden Hotel is at 800 Washington Ave., Golden on the corner of Washington Avenue and 11th Street right on the south bank of Clear Creek. For more information, call 303-279-0100. What better way to spend an evening than sitting out on the patio having dinner and drinks while listening to great music? And if you look north about a block you can see the old Golden Junior High and think about how many music careers came out of that building over the years. John Akal is a well-known jazz artist/ drummer and leader of the 20-piece Ultraphonic Jazz Orchestra. He also is president of John Akal Imaging, professional commercial photography and multimedia production.

Tips for summer reading progress
Summer is a difficult time to have regular family routines. However, including reading every day can help children stay on track with their language and reading skills. e For ways to help children learn see grandparentsteachtoo. org and wnmufm.org pod casts “Learning Through the l. click Seasons.” he

Preschool Children
ton Children need three million words from adults before ton kindergarten. th That seems like a staggering amount unless this time is tion, scheduled every day as quiet and active activity times that include talking together. Taking neighborhood walks or ng attending a city attraction is a good time to discuss what nner children are experiencing. Grandparents can help build sic? that vocabulary storehouse by planning interesting visits u around town that parents may not be able to arrange. d Talk during the visit and print their words on paper. ame Perhaps take pictures and make a storybook they can “read.” This helps children get the feel of reading and be praised for it. / Library visits are critical during the summer. Bring home a variety of fiction and nonfiction books, and attend s library programs. Then sit in a cozy spot, read with good es- expression and discuss the story. Connect relaxation and resting with reading a book. As your children are learning letters and beginning sounds, occasionally ask them to identify some on a page. Ask children questions about the story (who, what, when, where, why and how) to check for comprehension. Read favorite books many times until children can pretend to read the book themselves. Perhaps they can retell some of it. Encourage children to dress up like the characters and act it out.
Avoid Summer Slide
Once children are in first grade, it is very important to
practice reading every day. Children can practice to avoid a summer slide backward that requires reteaching in the fall while other students zoom ahead. Summer, after all, is one third as long as a school year. Ten to 20 minutes reading out loud every day makes a difference. There is a rule of five to help choose books. If your children put a finger on five or more words that they don’t know on a typical page, they probably need help reading the book. It doesn’t mean they shouldn’t choose it, just that they will need help and tire easily. Perhaps take turns reading paragraphs. Read at the same time so they mimic your good expression. If they don’t know a word, tell them after giving them time to think. Watch for correct reading of punctuation. Stop and lower pitch for periods at the end of sentences. Raise pitch at question marks. Pause at commas and sound excited at exclamation marks. Expression helps comprehension. Look for books with reading levels and chapter books like “ The Magic Tree House” series. Your librarians will help. Keep track of reading minutes and give rewards, including special activities or privileges with you.

Thornton sinks upgrades into Thorncreek Popular golf course tallies numerous renovations By Daniel Williams
dwilliams@ourcoloradonews.com THORNTON - If you have ever driven by Interstate 25 and 136th Avenue and wondered if you were missing out by not stopping by and playing a round at Thorncreek Golf Course the answer is a firm yes. The course that always looks a lush green off the highway is even better on foot, and Thorncreek offers an out-of-town golf experience just 15 minutes north of downtown Denver. “You will definitely have a golf experience and not just play a round of golf when you are at Thorncreek,” Thorncreek staff member Peyton Lindbloom said. The 18-hole course that is also Thornton’s only municipal course is more than 7,200 yards from the championship tees, but it can also play 6,500 yards from the white tees, making the course welcome to players of all abilities. The course, designed by Finger Dye Spahn, Inc., just celebrated its 20th anniversary. It has been just over a year since the City of Thornton took over day-to-day operations of the course from previously management. Thornton spent over a quarter-ofa-million dollars in renovations and took an already popular course to the next level in terms of overall course conditions. Landscaping additions, new fences, new turf seed and overall appearances of the fairways, cart paths and even clubhouse were just some of the makeovers the course received. “The company that has been running the course has let a few things go, and the course’s overall condition slipped a little bit. But right now the course is beautiful,” Thornton resident and Thorncreek regular Phil Wells said.
With grass stations and endless targets, Thorncreek’s large driving range usually has a spot open. Photos by Daniel Williams
Thorncreek’s expansive practice putting green is the perfect place to work on the short game. Thorncreek has a well above course rating of 73.6 and was given a 4-star rating by Golf Digest as “Best Places to Play.” “The course can definitely be challenging, but it can also be a long or as short as you want to play it. It is a course everyone can play,” Lindbloom said. And then comes the matter of price — which is actually no issue at Thorncreek. One thing the city has done is to remain competitive with the cost of playing nine of 18 holes. There are courses twice the price and three times the drive that don’t live up to the experience you will get at Thorncreek. And Thorncreek puts together tournaments for business owners who run a charity or are involved in a fundraiser.

Hensley skates to national level Former Green Mountain Ram hockey player piling up saves By Daniel Williams
dwilliams@ourcoloradonews.com LAKEWOOD - One of Lakewood’s own is making it big and making even bigger saves. Nicole Hensley, a 2012 graduate of Green Mountain High School, recently completed a stellar rookie campaign as a freshman goaltender playing NCAA Division I ice hockey at Lindenwood University in St. Charles, Mo. The 19-year-old gained national acclaim for her 90-save effort in a CHA Conference playoff game against Robert Morris University on March 1, setting an NCAA Division I record for saves in the entire CHA Conference playoff tournament in only one game. On Friday, Hensley learned she will be recognized for her 90-save game on the Lindenwood website as one of the university’s “Top 10 Sports Moments of the Year.” On Friday the Lindenwood website will note the accomplishment. The award is only one of many awards that Hensley has racked up in just a single season. After earning both starts as a freshman in the season opening series against nonconference Western Collegiate Athletic Conference (WCHA) opponent Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio on Sept. 2829. Hensley went on to become the No. 1 goaltender for the Lady Lions and garnered

Her first award of the season was the Lindenwood Female Student Athlete of the Week Award, followed by three CHA Conference Honor Roll awards, five CHA Conference Rookie of the Week awards, and the CHA Conference Rookie of the Month Award for February 2013. Additional awards came at the end of the season. Hensley was a unanimous selection to the CHA Conference All-Rookie Team, was selected CHA All Conference Second
Team, and was named CHA Conference Rookie of the Year, finishing second in the CHA Conference with a .939 save percentage in league games, just .001 behind the leader. But Hensley is far from satisfied. She is already geared up for her sophomore campaign. “At this point, my goals include making it back to the Warren Strelow Goaltending Camp next year as well as making August Fest sometime in the future which is a camp that brings together players from the national team, as well as hopefuls for
the future teams and possibly one day the Olympics,” Hensley said. While becoming a member of Team USA is just a dream for many, it is a potential reality for Hensley, who was invited by USA Hockey to attend the Warren Strelow National Team Goaltending Camp in Ann Arbor, Mich. last May. The camp featured the top 12 female goaltenders in the U.S. eligible for international play in select age groups. While she continues to excel, she recalls the early days fondly. “One of my other favorite memories would’ve been when my High Plains hockey team, the Black Widows beat the Polar Bears in overtime to win the state championship. It was really cool because my sister was on the team and those games are always fun because you have friends on every team,” Hensley said. Her sister, Brittany, will be a junior at Green Mountain High School this fall and is a letter winner for the Rams in soccer, basketball and academically. Nicole, an exercise science major, is looking forward to a strong sophomore athletic and academic year at Lindenwood, with the 2013-14 ice hockey season opening series at home on September 27-28 with a non-conference series against WCHA opponent Bemidji State from Bemidji, Minn. Lindenwood is a member of the College Hockey America (CHA) Conference along with Penn State, Syracuse, Mercyhurst, Robert Morris and RIT.
Siemers has interim label lifted, tabbed officially as head coach By Daniel Williams
dwilliams@ourcoloradonews.com GOLDEN - Chris Siemers has been promoted from interim head coach to head coach of the Colorado School of Mines cross country programs effective immediately. Interim Director of Athletics Marv Kay announced the hire that was only a matter of time after Mines cross country’s exceptional season. “Chris did a very fine job during his year as interim head coach,” Kay said. “His team’s national accomplishments speak volumes for his ability as a head coach. It is expected that the cross country teams will continue to excel under his coaching and leadership.” Siemers guided Mines to its best season in program history in 2012, steering both cross country teams back to the NCAA national championships for the first time since 2005 as the men claimed runner-up out of 32 teams and the women took eighth, their third top-10 finish of the last 10 seasons. With a program-record five runners in the top-36 and earning All-American stature, the Oredigger men continued their noteworthy run of high showings at the national meet, finishing in the top-five for the fourth straight year and in the top-10 for an eighth consecutive season. The men spent the entirety of the regular
season ranked inside the nation’s top-four, including a four-week stint at No. 2., and finished no lower than third at any meet in the fall under Siemers, capturing top honors at the Woody Greeno/Nebraska Invitational as well as second-place results at the Oklahoma State Cowboy Jamboree and RMAC Championships. The 2012 Captain U Division II Men’s Cross Country College Coach of the Year, Siemers saw the Mines women rank inside the top-25 in all seven regular season ballots, highlighted by a season-best ranking of No. 13 in the final poll. The Orediggers captured three fourthplace team finishes and took sixth at the Cowboy Jamboree behind a trio of Division I squads.
