VIOLET VOSTREJS

Wheat Ridge resident is owner of Violet’s Venue About Me I grew up in Park Hill and went to East High School. I was also a competitive ice skater for University of Denver during middle school and part of high school. I moved into the Highlands area about 16 years ago, and after my divorce I moved to the Golden/Lakewood area. I really like the Wheat Ridge neighborhood because of the people and great schools. In my free time In my free time I try to spend it with my kids (three girls, ages 28, 12 and 8 and my son, 18). Every spring, summer and fall the girls and I take horseback riding lessons together. We ride western style at the Wild West Ranch in Arvada once a week, and last year my 8-year-old started gymkhana at the Indiana Equestrian Center. On the weekends, we try to spend time together going to different fairs going on around town and fishing, swimming and playing tennis. Starting Violet’s Venue After my divorce I wanted to open a place for myself and the kids. I looked at several different restaurants that were for sale and when I came across this place, formally Riff ’s — a rockand-roll bar — I thought it would be

great to turn it into a classy little music venue for the neighborhood where they can gather with friends and family to hear great local music. Some place nice for them to enjoy without having to drive downtown. So the kids and I, with help from some of our friends, cleaned and painted the whole place. We had new floors put in and had some minor work done to change the feel of the entire space. We tried to get open in 30 days but made it in 45. It was a little hectic before opening because my son got an appendicitis and had to have surgery, and then right after opening the kids, my staff and myself got the flu. Thankfully, everyone is healthy now. My kids have been here every step of the way. They were very involved before we opened, helped clean paint and fix up the place. They get to learn how to start a business from the ground up. Offering something for everyone I think this neighborhood should have a place that is comfortable and inviting to gather. It gives it a sense of community where you can meet and know your neighbors. I think this area has a tight community and I enjoy providing a place where you can go and have some drinks and listen to some great music.

RTD pleads case for G Line opening STAFF REPORT SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Regional Transportation District pleaded its case in front of a Public Utilities Commission administrative law judge on Feb. 15 in hopes of convincing the regulatory agency to allow the long-delayed G Line to Arvada to open. The PUD is expected to release its ruling in March. The G Line is part of RTD’s 2004 voter-approved FasTracks plan to expand transit across the Denver metro region. It is an 11.2-mile electric commuter rail transit line that will connect Denver Union Station to Wheat Ridge, passing through northwest Denver, Adams County and Arvada. There are eight stations: Denver Union Station, 41st/Fox, Pecos, Federal, Gold Strike, Olde Town Arvada, Arvada Ridge and Ward Road. Construction on the G Line was completed a year ago, but it remains stuck in the testing phase with no opening date. The hold-up in opening the line is over the wireless system that controls the A, B and G lines’ crossing gates — they come down too early and stay down too long. State and federal officials required flaggers to be stationed at all three lines, although the G Line is not open yet. RTD and its contractor, Denver Transit Partners, have said they’ve made significant improvements to the system since then. The Federal

Railroad Administration gave its OK to the system in the fall of 2017, as long as gate activations happen at least 20 seconds before the train reaches the gate. The FRA also allowed for a cushion of five seconds before and 15 seconds after the programmed warning time. But last September, the Colorado PUC turned down RTD’s request to start full testing on the G Line. The PUC’s rail/transit safety chief, Pam Fischaber, said then the wireless system was not meeting the standards RTD promised it would meet upon its initial approval years ago. On Dec. 26, administrative law judge Robert Garvey ruled that testing of the G-Line trains could resume immediately, despite concerns about the line’s gate-crossing technology. Because of that issue, attendants would still have to monitor the crossings, and trains will be required to blow their horns upon the approach to each crossing. An opening date for the G Line has not yet to be set, as such a determination requires completion of testing and approval of crossing-gate technology by local and federal agencies. Garvey heard the RTD appeal of the September denial in the five-hour hearing Feb. 15 and is expected to release a decision in March, which could give the G Line the go ahead, release the crossing attendants from all lines and begin the FRA quiet zone process.

Child sex trafficker sentenced to 10 years in prison STAFF REPORT

A 32-year-old man has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for sexual exploitation of a 14-year-old girl, according to a news release from the Jefferson County District Attorney’s office. Mark Allen Horton appeared in Jefferson County Court on Feb. 8, where he received his sentence. He Horton also provided methamphetamine to the teen, the release said. The teen’s mother contacted Lake-

wood police in May 2016 with concerns that her daughter was involved in sexual activity with older men in exchange for methamphetamine. She had discovered disturbing photos on the teen’s phone. Lakewood’s investigation revealed that the teen met Mark Horton on social media when she was looking for marijuana. They talked briefly before Horton drove to her house, picked her up, and then drove to a hotel in Lakewood, according to the news release. At the hotel he provided the teen with methamphetamine and they engaged in

sexual conduct, the release states. During this encounter Horton contacted several people on social media, all of whom who were strangers to him, and invited them to the hotel to engage in sexual activity with him and the teen, according to the investigation. Similar group sexual encounters occurred several times in the weeks that followed. The young teen told police that Horton was like her “pimp,” that he took care of her and made sure she had what she needed. In addition to having sexual contact with the teen, Horton took and sent

sexually graphic photos of her. “This devastating conduct deserves nothing less than a lengthy prison sentence,” District Attorney Pete Weir said in the news release. “Horton got her addicted to methamphetamine and manipulated her. These are very difficult cases, with complex victim issues. “The Lakewood Police Department did an outstanding job bringing justice to this predator.” Horton pleaded guilty in November 2017 to distribution of a controlled substance to a minor and sexual exploitation of a child.

Are You Interested in Urban Farming? Here’s an Introduction and an Opportunity An increasingly popular aspect of living sustainably is to engage in “urban farming.” As shown below right, we have an urban farm listing in Lakewood, and in a couple weeks we’ll have a second one in Arvada. In light of these two listings, I asked an expert to enlighten you (and me) on this topic. Her name is Elizabeth Buckingham, and she writes a terrific blog, at www.FindingQuietFarm.com. Here’s what she sent me on this topic: By ELIZABETH BUCKINGHAM, Guest Columnist Until the global economy collapsed a decade ago, my husband Nicholas and I were working on private yachts in some of the world’s most glamorous places. He was a deckhand and dive instructor, and I was a chef. We had spent years travelling, and when we returned to Colorado, where I was born and raised, we knew we wanted a little space around us. We found a charming 1960s home in midtown Arvada on about one-fifth acre. In addition to built-in bookshelves and a wood-burning stove, the yard had mature, leafy trees and plenty of space for extensive vegetable and herb gardens, a chicken coop with run, and a beehive. We’ve spent the past eight years building an exceptionally productive urban farm. Our largest vegetable plot benefits from variable shade;

we use it for greens, such as lettuce, kale and spinach, plus garlic and Egyptian walking onions. The northern third, up against the shed, collects quite a bit more sun, so we often plant staked runner beans and eggplant there. The soil in this in-ground plot was in decent shape, but every year we amend it generously with mulch from our leaves and compost that we make ourselves along our southern fence. Whether in a backyard garden or a farm, soil is by far the most important component – it’s essential to take good care of it. The shaded garden plot was useful, but we needed space for heat-loving summer vegetables, like tomatoes and peppers. Nicholas built two large raised beds, which we filled with a mixture of lush organic soil and worm-rich compost. The beds are light, loamy and easy to grow in. We also constructed five smaller raised beds, ideal for squash, potatoes, peas and flowers, and we’ve planted raspberry bushes and perennial herb beds, including sage, English thyme, oregano, chives, lovage and mint. Every year, we harvest hundreds of pounds of organic food from our backyard. Nicholas repurposed some beautiful redwood and built a secure chicken house and run. Instead of flimsy, inexpensive chicken wire, which a hungry raccoon can easily pry open, he used heavy-duty hardware cloth – and buried it nearly twelve inches underground to deter digging predators. Thanks to its solid construction, we never lost a bird to predation, which is the ma-

Follow-up Regarding Last Week’s Article on Capital Gains Exemption

Last week I wrote about the capital gains exemption of $250,000 for single taxpayers and $500,000 for married taxpayers. I failed to mention (because I didn’t know) that a widow or widower has 2 years after the death of their spouse to sell their primary residence and still take advantage of the higher exemption amount. I thank the readers who brought that to my attention.

We’re Holding a Class on ‘Getting to Net Zero Energy’ You may recall we recently listed a “net zero” home at 1960 S. Gilpin Street, near Denver University. This coming Sunday, March 4th, we are hosting a class on “Getting to Net Zero & Beyond” in that house, where you’ll not only learn the concepts that go into building a net zero home or retrofitting a current home to net zero, but you’ll be able to see many of those concepts and products in place and working to make that particular home have a total energy

bill of under $6 per month. The house is for sale, but you don’t need to be a homebuyer to attend. See www.DenverPassiveHouse.com. Teaching this 90-minute PowerPoint presentation are two of Colorado’s leading experts on this topic: Lance Wright, “the green energy man,” who built 1960 S. Gilpin Street and two other net zero homes, and John Avenson, who keeps improving his net zero home in Westminster. The class is from 1 to 2:30 pm.

jor risk to chickens in an urban area. The hen house itself is thoroughly insulated, eliminating any need for dangerous heat lamps which can kill chickens and burn down structures. Backyard chickens are easy to keep; they need protection from the sun and predators, plenty of fresh water and good-quality food and a clean, safe place to nest and sleep. The eggs are unparalleled. To bring more beneficial pollinators not only to our garden but also to the surrounding area, we also installed a Langstroth beehive. The bees have overwintered successfully for three seasons and each fall they provide us with about fifty pounds of our own local honey. They’re fascinating to watch, improve pollination in our crops as well as those nearby, and maintaining a beehive doesn’t take much work. Soon we plan to relocate to a much larger piece of agricultural land, where we’ll start a small organic teaching farm focused on sharing our knowledge with others. We want to encourage everyone to pay attention to where your

Just Listed: An “Urban Farm” Home in South Lakewood Broker Associate Chuck Brown has just listed this solar-powered home at 2665 S. Eaton Place in Lake- $650,000 wood. If it looks a little overgrown in this photo taken last summer, watch the two video tours at www. LakewoodUrbanFarm.info. At that website you’ll find two separate video tours, because the tour of the gardens alone, led by the seller herself, took 24 minutes! The video tour of the interior is much shorter. The house has four bedrooms and 3½ baths spanning 3,175 above-grade square feet, plus an unfinished 1,703-sq.ft. garden-level basement. Built in 1996, it is in the Thraemoor subdivision, but, unlike other homes in that subdivision, the front, south and rear yards are devoted to providing year-round food for the owners. As mentioned in the box above right, this home will be the venue for a class on urban farming this Saturday, which will include a seller-led tour of the gardens themselves. The house itself will be open for touring the following day, Sunday, March 4th, 1 to 3 pm. Call Chuck at 303-885-7855 to reserve a seat at the urban farming class or for more info.

Goldenites take off on unique global adventure HOW TO HELP

BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The Turing test is a well-known term in the scientific field. It is a way to determine if a machine or computer is capable of thinking like a human being. Car touring is a British term for a car rally. So as a play on words that also includes a science joke, Golden residents Joe Ambrosich and Emily Hayden decided to name their team The Touring Test. In July, Ambrosich, 29, and Hayden, 27, will head to Europe and Asia to participate in a six-week car rally called the Mongol Rally, which is put on by an European organization called The Adventurists. “We’ve been talking about doing something rather outlandish for about two years now,” Ambrosich said. “This stood out because it’s very different.” However, that’s not the only reason the two chose this particular adventure. They want to help promote higher education as one of the service project requirements to participate in the car rally. Education is often overlooked, both socially and politically, Ambrosich said. “But it’s something everyone can get behind,” he added. “Everyone wants their children to get a good education.”

This summer, Emily Hayden and Joe Ambrosich of Golden will be partaking in a different kind of adventure — the Mongol Rally. They will travel from Prague to Mongolia in a small, less-than-desirable car, as pictured. To fulfill a charitable giving requirement to participate in the rally, the Goldenites are raising money to provide a scholarship to an underprivileged Colorado college student pursuing a degree in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) disciplines. PHOTO COURTESY OF THE ADVENTURISTS To participate in the Mongol Rally, the first requirement is that all teams donate £500, which is roughly $675, to The Adventurists’ official charity partner called Cool Earth, a nonprofit that works to halt deforestation and climate change. The second is to raise a minimum of an additional £500 to go to a charity of the participant’s choice. For Ambrosich and Hayden, it’s Science,

Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education. “We decided to go big,” Ambrosich said. The two are fundraising $10,000 to provide a scholarship for an underprivileged student pursing a STEM degree. Ambrosich and Hayden are still working out the details of which schools will be involved, but the scholarship will fund a student transferring

To participate in the Mongol Rally, a six-week car rally that spans 15 countries in Europe and Asia, Golden residents Joe Ambrosich and Emily Hayden must raise money to make two separate charitable donations. Total goal is $10,675. Here’s the breakdown: • $675 to Cool Earth, a nonprofit working to halt deforestation and climate change. This is the Mongol Rally’s organizer’s official charity partner. • $10,000 for a scholarship to fund an underprivileged Colorado college student pursuing a degree in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) disciplines. To donate to Ambrosich and Hayden, visit www.thetouringtest.com. To learn more about the Mongol Rally, visit www.theadventurists.com/mongol-rally. To learn more about Cool Earth, visit www. coolearth.org. from a Colorado community college to a Colorado university, they said. “We want to keep the scholarship local and enlist local support,” Hayden said. The Touring Test website was launched mid-January, and the first donation came in on Jan. 23. So far, the two have raised $1,600. The goal is to close their fundraising efforts on July 15. The first and second donations, totalling $200, came in from Noble Lillieftierna and his girlfriend ShanSEE ADV3NTURE, P5

non Brunston, both of Denver. They donated primarily “because it’s Joe and Emily,” said Lillieftierna, noting he has no doubt they’ll accomplish their fundraising goal. “In their own small way, (Ambrosich and Hayden) are spreading their goodwill,” Lillieftierna said. He added that he and Ambrosich met in college, and are now both architectural engineers. “We need to act as a global community,” Lillieftierna said. “STEM is a language we can all share.” Other than the two requirements of charitable donations, rules of the Mongol Rally are that the two have to purchase a less-than-desirable car — something that costs no more than

$1,000 — with an engine no larger than one liter to travel in from Prague to Mongolia. But any donation that people give will go to Cool Earth or the STEM scholarship, Ambrosich and Hayden said. Donations will not fund additional costs for participating in the Mongol Rally. Fundraising to provide a scholarship for a STEM student is important to Hayden, especially, because she is the recipient of a full-ride scholarship for physics. She transferred from Colorado Mountain College and is finishing up her studies at the University of Colorado Boulder. If it weren’t for the scholarship, she would not have been able to attend school, she said. “This is a way to pay it forward,” Hayden said. “We wanted to do something that would help other people get those same opportunities.”

CALM AFTER THE STORM

ia

The question is still what to do with the 150-year-old building sitting empty at 822 12th St. in downtown Golden. Golden city councilors did not come up with any specific goals for the Astor House during a Feb. 22 study session meeting, but did conclude a couple of things: They want some estimates on costs to get it in shape for occupancy, and they want public participation to learn what its value is to the community. “I don’t think (it should be) city council prioritizing the Astor House,” Councilor Laura Weinberg said. “I think it’s the community.” And it may be something that should be explored by the Golden Investment Forum Task Force, she added, which is a group that advises city council on potential courses of action regarding appropriate levels of community investment in capital infrastructure and amenities in Golden. Regarding cost estimates, as is, the Astor House is structurally safe. However, it has open framing, and the electrical and plumbing systems are not up to code, said Rod Tarullo, the city’s director of parks, recreation and golf. “There are some challenges and issues with the building in its current state,” he said. “City staff will work with local contractors to get prices on what it would cost to restore the interior of the Astor House to the minimum level required to be able to get a certificate of occupancy.” A certificate of occupancy is a document needed that confirms the structure is safe to inhabit for any purpose and duration of time, Tarullo added. In addition, staff will get price estimates for restoration of the wash-

ASTOR HOUSE FINANCIAL TALLY

$480,000 — cost of the rehabilitation project. $85,000 — cost of the beer museum feasibility study. $60,000 — cost of a roof replacement planned this year as part of ongoing upkeep. $38 — cost of operations, per visitor, when it was open as a museum. $3 — Admission fee per person when it was open as a museum. house on the property, and landscape improvements to the grounds to create a more park-like setting. The Astor House has been closed since September 2015 to undergo a major rehabilitation and preservation project, which cost approximately a half-million dollars. Rehabilitation included recreating the back yard and stabilizing the structure with retaining walls and bolstering the foundation. Asbestos was discovered in vast areas of the Astor House during renovation, forcing removal of much of the interior. This included removing the HVAC system and removing the walls’ plaster coatings and wallpaper. The asbestos abatement was completed in May 2016. Last year the Astor House underwent a feasibility study on the potential of turning it into a beer museum, but councilors decided not to further pursue the beer museum concept last fall. Results of the study were that the Astor House — which is roughly 3,000 square feet — is much too small to host it. And in fact, proved that the Astor House is an inadequate space for any sort of stand-alone museum. Still, a broad spectrum of organizations and nonprofits needing either permanent space or somewhere to host events have expressed interest in the building, said Golden City Manager Jason Slowinski. But that’s also what’s making the decisions difficult, he said: “Trying to narrow in without knowing what council’s goals (for the Astor House) are.”

School threats spike in Jeffco on heels of Florida tragedy Community meeting on school safety and security planned March 20 BY SHANNA FORTIER SFORTIER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

There were multiple threats against students and faculty in Jefferson County Public Schools in the week following the the Feb. 14 school shooting in Florida, but all of them were deemed unfounded by local law enforcement and the district’s security team. “We have been dealing with multiple threats each day, each requiring a significant response and investigation,” said Jason Glass, superintendent of Jeffco schools, adding that the number of threats Glass have risen substantially after the Parkland, Florida shooting. This he said is not uncommon after a national tragedy. “Fortunately, none of of the threats have proven credible,” Glass said. “Many of the threats we have received in recent days have originated on social media through dares, terrible jokes, or hoaxes.“ Glass said that social media has been problematic in that rumor and misinformation is shared and uncriti-

cally accepted as truth. Two threats in Jeffco Schools where social media has played a big role were focused on Dakota Ridge, Columbine and Arvada West high schools. On the evening of Feb. 19, several sources reported an individual made a threat of violence towards Dakota Ridge and Columbine high schools on social media. After investigation by law enforcement and the district’s security staff, it was determined the person in the photo was not the instigator of the threat; another person used the photo, created the caption, and sent it out as a “joke.” According to the Jefferson County Sheriff ’s Office, the juvenile suspect in this case faces charges of harassment and interfering with school operation. Arvada West High School investigated two incidents last week, and have found both to be unsubstantiated. On Feb. 16, a threatening graffiti message posted in a student rest room was reported by students. This was immediately investigated by Arvada West administration and local police officers. The graffiti was determined to be a hoax after thorough investigation by local law enforcement far before it was posted on social media, however, a photo of the graffiti, which read “I’m going to shoot up Arvada West,” went viral on social media causing much fear throughout the community.

STUDENT WALKOUTS PLANNED

Nationwide student walkouts are planned for March and April. The first one is scheduled for March 14, which would mark one month since the South Florida shooting. It’s being planned in part by the Women’s March organizers to protest inaction from lawmakers on gun-control legislation. The event calls for students and teachers to walk out of their schools at 10 a.m. local time for 17 minutes to honor the

WHAT IS SAFE2TELL?

Safe2Tell is an anonymous way for students, parents, school staff and community members to report concerns regarding their safety or the safety of others. It emerged as a needed resource in the aftermath of the deadly 1999 shooting at Columbine High School. Reports from the anonymous tip program go to principals, law enforcement and school dispatch centers and they respond as a trifecta. During the 2016-17 school year, Safe2Tell received 9,163 reports statewide, a 58 percent increase from the previous year. The top five The Arvada Police Department is investigating. These are not an isolated incident. In the wake of the shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School in which 17 people were killed, schools across the metro area have been responding to reports and tips regarding potential school violence. “In most cases, we have been able to identify and law enforcement has apprehended the perpetrator,” Glass said. “They face criminal charges, and if they are students they also face the high probability of a significant suspension or expulsion.” Although social media can be problematic in perpetuating false information, Glass said the positive is that the district has been able to engage with the community and provide accurate and up to date information via social media, answer questions from the community, and give them a place to voice fears and concerns. On Feb. 22 Glass hosted a Facebook Live discussion with John McDonald, executive director of security and emergency management for Jeffco schools. “It’s been heartbreaking,” McDonald said of the aftermath of the shooting in Florida. “I think for everyone around the country, this tragedy and the events that are unfolding, they are so recognizable of our tragedies here in Colorado.” McDonald said the work being done in Jeffco following those event are “robust” working 24-hours a day to ensure the safety of students who are scared. But above the fake threats being made, McDonald said one of the biggest issue following crisis is the emotional support side and making sure students feel safe. McDonald emphasized that one of the greatest intelligence tools the state of Colorado has is Safe2Tell, an anonymous reporting system. According to McDonald, this school year, Jeffco has logged 1,400 reports to

17 lives lost in at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland. Another walkout is planned on April 20, which will mark the 19th year since the Columbine High School massacre in Colorado that left 13 dead. More than 22,000 people have signed a petition, pledging to walkout of their classrooms that day at 10 a.m. for the rest of the day.

tips were about suicide threats, bullying, drugs, cutting and depression. Threats and planned school attacks came in at the top sixth and seventh type of tip. The program is available to every district in the state for free and most take advantage of that, a model unique to Colorado. Students, teachers and community members can make an anonymous report at safe2tell. org by using a smartphone and downloading the Safe2Tell Colorado mobile app from the Apple Store or Google Play or by calling 1-877-542-7233 to speak to a live dispatcher.

OPEN DISCUSSION PLANNED Jefferson County Public Schools is planning to host a face-to-face community discussion from 6-8 p.m. March 20 at Lakewood High School, 9700 W 8th Ave, Lakewood. More information and promotional material is forthcoming. Visit http://www.jeffcopublicschools.org/. Safe2Tell. Historically the number one report is about friends who are suicidal or bullying. But McDonald said they have seen a significant increase of students reporting threats and planned school attacks. These reports go to law enforcement, school principals and the districts security team. Together with the district attorney’s office and Jeffco Mental Health, they work the threat until a suspect is identified and the threat is deemed founded or not. “We respond with fidelity and we do it pretty aggressively,” McDonald said, adding that teams work all hours of the night. Sometime the community is notified of the threat, and sometimes they are not. Glass said the timing of parent and community notification is dependent upon variables in the investigation. “It’s really important that we don’t compromise an ongoing investigation,” McDonald explained, adding that the team asses the nature of the threat and the potential of violence first. “Communication is discussed at multiple levels and sometimes timing could be better, sometimes it’s spot on.” Those who missed the 2:30 p.m. Facebook Live discussion can view it on the district’s page, www.facebook. com/JeffcoPublicSchoolsColorado. The discussion of safety and security at Jeffco schools in ongoing. The district is planning a face-toface engagement March 20 at Lakewood High School.

The way that Chris Eberhardt, principal of Jefferson County’s McLain Community High School, sees it, his school does more than offer students of all ages an opportunity for a second chance at an education. “We’re a kind of a Statue of Liberty for public education in the county,” he said. “We embrace the fact that students chose to be here to get an education that they might have missed, and we want to add value to every student, no matter where they are in their lives.” McLain Community High School, 13600 W. 2nd Place in Lakewood, may look like one building from the outside, but a visit inside reveals several distinct programs. As an alternative high school, 90 percent of McLain’s students are designated as at risk by the Colorado Department of Education. This means they might be homeless, have mental health issues, or could be “over age and under credit,” in other words, not have enough credits for where they should be in their school career. This was the case for Braden Cotts, 17, who didn’t attend high school during his freshman or sophomore year, and tried to register as a junior. “No school would take me, but here at McLain I was welcomed with open arms,” he said. “I’ve only been attending since the beginning of the school year here, but I really like it.” Students like Cotts have several options at McLain. There are two ACE (Alternative Cooperative Education) programs: The ACE and Achieve programs, which emphasize the importance of being prepared to work in addition to being college ready. McLain also offers the LIVE program designed for students in the 9th and 10th grades with zero to four credits. McLain LIVE is an experiential, direct instruction, highly interactive alternative for students. And that’s not all. “Sometimes, someone’s boss will see an employee never received their high school diploma, or maybe for decades, a student has wanted to go back and finish high school,” Eberhardt said. “At our CB adult high school program, we have day and evening schedules available for those older than 18 who want to finish earning their diploma. At our adult graduation last year, our commencement speaker was 55.” To reach students of such diverse populations and ages means doing everything possible to reduce the barriers to student attendance and success. That can mean providing counseling services when necessary and child care for parents. “We work to help these parents become the parents they want to be for their kids, and help them do what they want to with their life,” said Katy

Chris Eberhardt, principal of McLain Community High School, wants the alternative high school to be a community hub, where students and their families can come to find keys to a more successful future. PHOTOS BY CLARKE READER Waskey, instructor in McLain’s Jefferson County Adolescent Pregnancy and Parenting Program (JCAPPP). “We also offer some classes on parenting, and we’re looking at ways to expand these offerings to staff and other schools.” Partnerships with service organizations and nonprofits in the community are a key component of removing barriers for students. Those include American Job Center, The Action Center, Hunger Free Colorado and the Jefferson Center for Mental Health. “Students have access to me for free to help with their therapy needs, and I can occasionally do family sessions,” said Lorrine Zoma, a counselor from the Jefferson Center for Mental Health who works at McLain. “The most common issues I hear from students concern anxiety, depression, trauma and some substance use. It takes a lot of courage for these kids to open up.” How long a student attends McLain depends on needs and how school fits into schedules. For some it could be a week, others a few months, and still others several years. McLain serves about 800 students a year, and it’s important to Eberhardt that their achievements are celebrated. All the programs at the school have their own graduation ceremonies, and students receive the same high school diploma they would receive at any Jeffco high school. Staff also help students with their plans beyond high school. Jeanne Stongle, career development coordinator, helps connect students to the local business community for internships and career pathways. “A lot of our students are interested in healthcare and construction jobs, which is great, because those areas are doing really well,” she said. “None of the business we’ve sent a student to has had the slightest complaint. They’re all such hard workers.” Looking ahead, Eberhardt is passionate about making the school a community hub, where not only students, but also their family and friends can come for assistance with jobs, housing and any other needs. The school hosted its first McLain Community Night on Feb. 27, where everyone was invited to tour the school, meet with organizational partners and support the local business community.

Kimberly Willahan, teacher librarian at McLain Community High School, speaks with members of the school’s Student Voice group, which tackles diversity and cultural issues in the school to ensure everyone feels included.

“I want McLain to be a place for students of all ages to find hope, and that goes for the people in their lives as well,” Eberhardt said. “The best thing we can give to our community is a high school graduate.” Students at McLain can tell that teachers and staff want them to suc-

ceed, as 16-year-old Nene Gardner said. “I wasn’t sure if I was going to like any of the teachers on my first day here, but they really get to know you here,” Gardner said. “I hope more people learn about this school, because it’s the best I’ve been to.”

Bill would prohibit incentives for taking standardized tests Two lawmakers sponsor measure as state wrestles with effects of opt-outs BY ERICA MELTZER CHALKBEAT.ORG

It’s already illegal in Colorado for schools to penalize students who don’t take state assessments. Now a bill before the Legislature would make it illegal to reward students who take the tests and would penalize schools who offer such incentives. “The school can’t say you can’t play on the team or go on the field trip,” said Senate Majority Leader Chris Holbert, who opted to keep his own sons from taking state assessments. “This bill addresses something that’s come up recently: If you take the assessment, you get to go to the party or go on the field trip or maybe even get to play on the sports team. It’s the same message, but the other way around.” That’s just as wrong, said Holbert, a Republican from Parker who sponsored the bill with state Sen. Andy Kerr, a Lakewood Democrat. Kerr is a teacher who serves on his school’s accountability committee, and he said another teacher raised this idea — supposedly used at a different school — as they discussed how to get more students to take the tests. “We know that we can’t do negative

consequences, but at this school, every student who takes the test gets a raffle ticket and the winner of the raffle gets a wide-screen TV,” Kerr said. “This was given as an example of a positive reinforcement to take the test.” The wide-screen TV in this example was donated; no taxpayer dollars went to reward test-taking and the luck of the draw. Under the bill, schools could still have parties after testing is over, but they couldn’t exclude students who didn’t take the tests. Colorado has been at the center of the opt-out movement nationally, and its partisans include people on the left and the right — students in conservative Douglas County as well as liberal Boulder County. How Colorado handles accountability for schools with high opt-out rates has been a point of contention with the federal government. The State Board of Education has a policy that the state won’t lower the quality rating of schools who miss the 95 percent participation mark, while the federal Department of Education wants those students counted as “not proficient.” In a compromise, Colorado agreed to keep two lists of schools, one that complies with state law and one that complies with federal law, but Colorado is still waiting for approval from the federal government of its Every Student Succeeds Act plan. Matt Cook, director of public policy

“We know that we can’t do negative consequences, but at this school, every student who takes the test gets a raffle ticket and the winner of the raffle gets a wide-screen TV.” Andy Kerr Colorado State Senator

and advocacy for the Colorado Association of School Boards, said his organization doesn’t have a position on the bill, but he does have a few questions: “Who are the bad actors?” and “Does this need to be a law?” “I don’t want to pick on anybody in particular,” Holbert said, declining to name any schools or districts. He characterized the problem as “more than one, but not widespread.” The Colorado PTA, the Colorado Education Association, the Colorado Association of School Executives and the State Board of Education all support the idea behind the bill. “We certainly believe students who have the family discussion to not take the test should not have any inappropriate hook dangled before them,”

Nate Golich, director of government affairs for the teachers union, told the Senate Education Committee. “They should not feel stigmatized or ostracized because there’s a pizza party or a granola bar or orange slices.” But there is a point of dispute: how to enforce such a law. The original version of the bill calls for the Colorado Department of Education to make a note in the performance report of any schools found in violation, and to “impose a significant penalty” on the accreditation rating of any school that violates the law three or more times in a year. Dana Smith, a spokeswoman for the Department of Education, said that provision would be difficult to enforce. The department collects a lot of data, but it doesn’t know which schools hold pizza parties for kids who take state assessments. Doing enforcement on a complaint basis could create an unfair situation in that schools whose parents complain are punished while schools with the same practices whose parents don’t complain go unpunished. Lisa Escárcega, executive director of the Colorado Association of School Executives, called docking a school’s rating over this issue “using the jaws of life to go after a minnow.” “We would not want a school to lose an entire accreditation point if three people call CDE,” Golich said. The Senate Education Committee heard testimony about the bill Feb. 8 but postponed a vote. Holbert and Kerr said they’re open to removing the penalty, but that raises the question of what the law even means. “What happens if we pass a bill that has no particular penalty or enforcement mechanism and parents are frustrated because they’re seeing these consequences?” asked state Sen. Tim Neville, a Jefferson County Republican.

Parents, students, educators rally at state Capitol Group sends message of support for cyberschools, online learning STAFF REPORT

School choice advocates from around the state gathered Feb. 16 at the Colorado Capitol to send a message to state legislators about cyberschools and online learning in Colorado. Parents, students and educators from the Colorado Coalition of Cyberschool Families say schools of choice are threatened across the country. “Colorado families are blessed to have abundant school choice options, but we will never take these options for granted,” Tillie Elvrum, a cyberschool parent and president of the coalition, said in a news release. “The Colorado Coalition of Cyberschool Families believes parents should be empowered with school choice, students should have access to the educational options that fit them best, and parents should be trusted with their education decisions.” Cyberschools are a critical compo-

nent to our public school system and must be preserved, Elvrum said. “I was excited to join cyberschool families from across Colorado as we celebrate our school choice and the unique role cyberschools play in public education,” Elvrum said. Cyberschool students include elite athletes, such as snowboarder Arielle Gold, who wants to gain an education while practicing many hours a day; LGBTQ students who have experienced bullying in traditional classrooms; and students who simply prefer to work at their own pace due to a learning disability or emotional issue. “Bullying, differing learning styles, and military parents — these are just a few reasons why families choose online schooling for their children,” said Emerald Zeitz, a cyberschool parent and board member of the coalition. “My daughter lives with Asperger’s syndrome and the typical public school setting was simply not equipped to deal with her differences. With online schooling, my daughter embraces her differences without fear of being bullied as her grades, knowledge, and confidence soar.” At the rally, the coalition honored four state legislators with Golden

Florida school shooting spurs calls for action BY SUDHIN S. THANAWALA ASSOCIATED PRESS

The mass shooting at a Florida high school that left 17 people dead has sparked calls for walkouts, sit-ins and other actions on school campuses across the United States, aimed at pushing lawmakers to pass tougher gun laws. Organizers behind the Women’s March, an anti-Trump and female empowerment protest, called for a 17-minute walkout on March 14 to “protest Congress’ inaction to do more than tweet thoughts and prayers in response to the gun violence plaguing our schools and neighborhoods.” The Network for Public Education, an advocacy organization for public schools, meanwhile, announced a “national day of action” on April 20, the anniversary of the 1999 shooting at Columbine High School in south Jefferson County, in which two students opened fire on their classmates, killing 12 students and one teacher. The organization is encouraging teachers and students to organize sit-ins, walkouts, marches and any other events to protest gun violence in schools. “The politicians sit on their hands as our children and their teachers are murdered in their schools,” Diane Ravitch, the group’s president, and Carol Burris, its executive director, said in a post online. The protest plans have circulated widely on social media, signaling that the outcry for new gun legislation may not fade away as it has after other recent mass shootings. Many of those shootings, including the deaths

of 20 first-graders and six educators at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut in 2012, led to a push for new gun laws, but those efforts stalled in Congress. “We need to make this moment a movement and to actually make changes that need to happen in this country so that these kinds of weapons, AR-15s, are not in the hands of people who shouldn’t have them,” said Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, a union representing teachers and other educators. Weingarten said she was part of the discussions about the April 20 protest. What gives the Florida shooting more potential to spark change, she said, is that the students themselves got angry really quickly and demanded it. Teenage survivors of the recent shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School have become advocates for gun control, sparring with gun-rights activists on social media and calling for safer gun laws at vigils and in television interviews. Thousands of angry students, parents and residents demanded stricter gun control laws on Feb. 17 at a rally in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, which is about 20 miles from the site of the shooting in Parkland. Some people in online posts called for a Civil Rights-era style boycott of schools until gun laws are changed. David Berliner, a professor of education at Arizona State University who also participated in the plans for the April 20 protest, said he would support such a boycott. “This has got to stop,” he said.

GOP governor candidates avoid squabbles in forum Stapleton, Coffman, Mitchell, Robinson jockey to stand out on issues BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Powerful statewide positions and big family names — think Bush and Romney — hover over the Republican race for governor. But political posturing about being an outsider was also on display at a GOP candidates’ forum in Denver that saw four hopefuls discuss energy, transportation and job training. “I come to you as a family man,” said Victor Mitchell, a businessman from Castle Rock who called himself an outsider. “I’ve never signed anything but a paycheck.” Mitchell served in the state Legislature from 2007-09 and had about $2.2 million on hand as of February. And he wasn’t the only one to position himself as a commonsense newcomer — Doug Robinson, a former investment banker and a Mitt Romney nephew, stressed his experience in the technology industry. Walker Stapleton, state treasurer and a second cousin of former President George W. Bush, came out aggressively after the Democratic gubernatorial candidates, drawing a clear line and sounding confident enough to look past his GOP opponents. Cynthia Coffman, state attorney general, sounded some moderate notes, touted her experience in office and even got some laughs along the way. The forum steered mostly clear of personal or even policybased attacks among the Republican candidates. Here’s what the candidates had to say on transportation, energy and job training at the Feb. 21 forum hosted at the History Colorado Center by the Denver Business Journal and the Colorado Business Roundtable, an organization that advocates for business interests in legislation. Training for future Vocational education, sometimes called career and technical education, is

necessary in bridging Colorado’s rural-urban economic divide, Mitchell said. “Apprenticeship periods of five years (have) a tremendous chilling effect,” Mitchell said. “We’re not teaching vocational classes in schools, especially our rural schools.” Doing so would “make sure that Colorado is very much open for business,” he added. Stapleton echoed that point, saying the state should be a better partner in making sure companies can fill the jobs they offer. “We have candidates on the Democratic side that are telling people everyone should go to college and ... be saddled with debt, and the jobs won’t be waiting for them,” Stapleton said. Investing in vocational training could come from current state funds, he said. Coffman supported incentivizing skills training done on the job for employees who are just starting out. Robinson took the opportunity to again talk up his experience in a technology nonprofit, KidsTek, which provides technology-based education programs, and said businesses should lead on filling the gaps rather than the government. Roads, bridges and other ‘modes’ The candidates offered varying degrees of support for spending on multimodal transportation, or transportation that includes public transport like the RTD light rail. “I was in the (former Gov. Bill) Owens administration when we did the T-REX project,” said Coffman, who was Owens’ chief legal counsel. Coffman said extra money Colorado will take in due to the recent federal tax cuts should be used for transportation spending and that a percentage should go toward the light rail, which she says the state must get more people to use in order for it to be successful. Other candidates beat around the multimodal question, though. “Remember that businessschool class?” Robinson asked the crowd. “Commerce follows infrastructure.” Rural roads like U.S. Highway 24, not just Interstate 25, need to be widened, Robinson said. When the moderator asked about other forms

of transportation, he added, “Sure, I think you have to do (multimodal) as well, but it’s really about our roads.” Mitchell said that the Colorado Department of Transportation is badly managed and would use the state’s Legislative Audit Committee in a performance-based way to evaluate it. Colorado can’t have “a first-world economy with a third-world infrastructure,” Stapleton said, adding that the head of CDOT would be an engineer “when I’m governor.” He stressed roads and bridges specifically and mentioned doing more for rural areas. Fracking and renewables The candidates all opposed giving local governments more control over drilling for oil and gas, and also opposed raising the current state requirement that investor-owned utilities generate 30 percent of their electricity from renewable energy by 2020. “You know where the Democrats stand — they want to put the thumb of government in favor of one kind of energy over another,” Robinson said, adding that “renewables are fine” but should compete in the market without government help. Robinson implied that

fracking doesn’t cause pollution, and Stapleton said it can be done safely. The Environmental Protection Agency in 2015 found that fracking has not led to widespread impacts on drinking water, but did find that drinking water was affected in some cases and that fracking fluid has reached surface water and groundwater in some instances. Those cases were relatively few, but the study recognized that its data could be underestimating. “We all want clean air and clean water,” Mitchell said, but added that renewables shouldn’t be subsidized. He and Stapleton pointed to Democratic proposals to transition the state to 100 percent renewable energy use by 2040, which he said would be too expensive. When asked how to address homeowners’ concerns about drilling encroaching on their areas, each candidate didn’t answer until pushed by the moderator. Robinson said there should be clear rules on where suburban sprawl can grow; Coffman said people have to accept the risks of building schools or houses where there might be drilling. Other remarks In a forum that mostly

avoided the Republicans comparing themselves to one another, Stapleton made a point of directing points at the Democrats, tagging gubernatorial candidate and U.S. Rep. Jared Polis (D-Boulder) as “running to end the energy industry as we know it” for his 100 percent renewableenergy proposal. Stapleton also said Democratic candidates’ push for a single-payer healthcare system, in which all residents could buy health care from the government rather than private insurers, would send businesses packing. Coffman praised Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker for implementing one of the nation’s “right-to-work” laws, which generally prevent labor unions from requiring employees to pay fees or dues. She wants such a law passed in Colorado. Robinson said virtual reality and artificial intelligence are coming “in a big way” to the Colorado economy and that workers need to be prepared for the future. The forum seldom discussed education funding, but Mitchell said he’d push for a freeze on highereducation costs during his tenure if he were to be elected.

Jefferson County crime briefs STAFF REPORT

Man found guilty for firing shots at Lakewood officers A Jefferson County jury found a Lakewood man guilty on Feb. 9 for firing shots at Lakewood police officers in July 2016. Eric James St. George, 40, was found guilty of nine counts: two felony counts of attempted murder, two counts of first-degree assault-threat to a peace officer, three counts of menacing, illegal discharge of a firearm, and the misdemeanor charge of unlawful sexual contact. The trial lasted seven days, and the jury deliberated for two hours before returning the guilty verdict. St. George will be sentenced at 1 p.m. April 4. On July 31, 2016, a young woman called 911 to report that she had been shot at after leaving St. George’s home in the 8100 block of West Eastman Place in Lakewood. She was an exotic dancer and was paid by St. George to dance for him, but when he began to groped her, she objected and quickly left, according to a news release issued by the First Judicial District’s District Attorney’s Office. He followed her outside and began to fire shots. Lakewood police responded and made six attempts to contact St. George by phone. Police then established a perimeter around his apartment. St. George went out the back door and proceeded to the parking lot until he had a direct line of sight with a police officer who was taking cover behind a vehicle. He raised the shotgun, aimed it directly at her and fired three shots, the news release stated. The agent returned fire, injuring St. George. The agent was not injured by gunfire. On Oct. 7, 2016, District Attorney Pete Weir wrote a letter to the Lakewood police chief notifying him that the shooting was determined to be justified. Life in prison for murder during marijuana transaction A man will spend life in prison without the possibility of parole, plus 24 years, for killing Philip Peny, 44, during a marijuana transaction in November 2016. Following a seven-day trial and two hours of deliberation, a Jefferson County jury found Toussaint Lamar Hampton, 24, guilty of first-degree murder after deliberation, felony murder in the first degree, aggravated robbery and possession of marijuana while possessing a firearm. He was sentenced immediately following the guilty verdict. On Nov. 19, 2016, Lakewood police responded to a report of multiple shots fired at an apartment complex in

the area of West Ninth Avenue and Allison Street in Lakewood. They found Peny lying just outside his car. He had been shot multiple times and died from his injuries. Leading up to the transaction, Hampton answered Peny’s ad on Craigslist and it was agreed that Peny would sell Hampton a pound of marijuana for $1,700, according to a news release issued by the First Judicial District’s District Attorney’s Office. Hampton and his girlfriend Bell Kiantrenay drove to meet Peny at the Lakewood apartment complex, but evidence showed that Hampton did not bring money and did not intend to pay for the marijuana. During the course of the investigation, evidence indicated that Hampton intended to distribute the stolen marijuana. At the meeting place, Hampton approached Peny, who was still in his car, and fired at least seven shots at him. Hampton then dragged Peny from the car, reached into the backseat and retrieved a plastic bag that was full of marijuana, the news release said. Hampton then returned to his car and he and Kiantrenay drove away. Using cell phone technology, Lakewood police identified and found Hampton and Kiantrenay. They were arrested on Nov. 21, 2016. On Oct. 23, Kiantrenay pleaded guilty to possession of marijuana, accessory to a crime and tampering with evidence. She was sentenced on Feb. 22 to 16 years in prison. Fifteen years for drunken driving vehicular homicide A man was sentenced to 15 years in prison plus five years parole on Feb. 16 for a drunken driving incident that resulted in the death of one person. On Dec. 13, 2015, Ah Jung, 26, and three friends were traveling westbound on Highway 6 through Clear Creek Canyon on their way to the casinos in Black Hawk. The men had been drinking at a friend’s house in Aurora. Jung was drunk and lost control of the car, sliding into the oncoming lane of traffic, according to a news release issued by the First Judicial District’s District Attorney’s Office. Karen Hanson, 78, was traveling eastbound and was unable to stop and slammed into Jung’s car. She and her husband Howard, 85, were seriously injured as were all three passengers in Jung’s car. Howard Hanson suffered numerous rib fractures and a fractured sternum, and died from his injuries on Jan. 12, 2016. Jung’s BAC was .22, which is almost three times the legal limit. On Dec. 14, a jury found Jung guilty of vehicular homicide-DUI, four counts of vehicular assault-DUI and DUI.

New tax-refund scam is gaining traction STAFF REPORT

A new scam that plays off the more widely known tax-imposter phone scam that claims money is owed to the IRS is gaining momentum, according to a news release from the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office. The newly hatched plan involves criminals who are processing and sending tax refunds directly to consumers and then calling and scaring them into returning the money, the release states. Before late January, when the IRS began accepting 2017 tax returns, criminals infected the computers of tax preparers and stole tax information on clients. Criminals now are using that data to process actual tax refunds, the release states. Once the refunds are sent, the criminals will call, text or leave phone messages claiming to be agents or debt collectors from the IRS and threatening victims if they don’t sent the fraudulent refunds back. The first red flag with this scam is the way the scammers are requesting payment — either through a wire service or with a pre-paid card rather than sending money directly to the IRS. This tactic of requesting money is the hallmark of a typical phone scam, the release says. The second red flag is that the IRS will not call people, even those who owe money. Scammers spoof the information that appears on caller ID to make it look as if the IRS is calling.

WOW!!!

If caller ID shows up as IRS or U.S. Department of Treasury, it’s a scam — do not respond, the release says. Those who are concerned or have already received a refund should do the following, according to the release: • Immediately contact your tax preparer, especially if you’ve already received a refund or a refund you were not expecting. Usual turnaround time on a refund request is 10 days, so any quick return of a refund should be questioned. • Fraudulent refunds must immediately be sent back to the IRS so they can take measures to correct and restore the client’s account and process an appropriate refund. • If you received a mailed refund check, void it and send it back to the IRS, along with a copy of the return and explanation of why the check is being returned. If the check was automatically deposited, call the IRS to explain what happened. The number is 800-829-1040 for individuals and 800829-4933 for businesses. You also must contact the bank to return the money. • If you spent part or all of the refund, you will need to write a check to repay the IRS. Send checks to a local IRS service center, along with a note explaining you were a victim of the scam. Make certain you have the correct IRS return address. Your tax preparer will have this information and can guide you through these steps. Go to www.irs.gov/newsroom/ tax-scams-consumer-alerts for more details about this scam.

Colorado emergency responders provide disaster aid nationally Assignments offer increase in experience, assurance of assistance here if needed BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When hurricanes make landfall or wildfires take off, and if earthquakes topple buildings or terrorists attack, it’s emergency responders who are tasked with protecting the public. In the event of large-scale emergencies, what unfolds is a multi-jurisdictional response drawing personnel from across the nation — including many from Colorado. Hurricane Irma, Hurricane Harvey and the Thomas and Lilac fires, two of the massive wildfires that plagued California in December and January, were just some of the most recent natural disasters to which Denver metro agencies deployed crews. It’s a call to action they’re happy to answer when the job is bigger than any one agency can handle, officials say, but there’s also a benefit to the local departments that respond. The first priority is offering aid in the form of manpower, equipment and other resources, agencies said. What

Rescue Task Force, one of 28 task forces across the country that respond to local, state and national events. West Metro Fire Rescue sponsors the program in Colorado, which has more than 200 members from 23 agencies in the state. The task force had back-to-back deployments over the summer, first in Texas for Hurricane Harvey and then in Florida for Hurricane Irma. “We had over 100 members, close to 100 members deployed this past summer to hurricanes,” Tyus said. During Hurricane Irma, Eric Hurst of South Metro Fire Rescue deployed to an Air Force base in Georgia, although he was working as a communications unit leader for crews in Florida. His focus was making sure all the

responders could communicate with one another. “There are various types of radios, as far as the frequency range, that they can talk on,” he said. “Where I was, my team was coordinating law enforcement resources from across the country. We had different federal agencies that were coming together for the first time.” Hurst can still recall his chilling two-day drive from Colorado to Georgia. As he traveled on a nearly empty southbound interstate toward the hurricane, the opposite lanes stood in a gridlock as locals attempted to evacuate. Pumps ran dry at gas stations, he said, and shelves were emptied of food. SEE RESPONDERS, P13

wildfire in California history, burning in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties. The U.S. Forest Service announced the blaze was 100 percent contained as of Jan. 12, more than a month after it began. What caused the Thomas Fire remains unknown, but before its end, it burned 281,893 acres, destroyed more than 1,063 structures and damaged 280 more. The Lilac Fire started three days after the Thomas Fire in San Diego County. It burned 4,100 acres, destroyed 157 structures and damaged 64. Richardson, with more than 20 years of experience in wildland fires, described the Thomas Fire as the “largest, most complicated and most expensive” fire in the state’s history. “We were protecting homes that were in excess of $15 million apiece,” he said. The crews will have ample opportunity to use the skills they learned in the California fires along the Front Range, Richardson said, which he

“As a responder going into a disaster you are part of the disaster, essentially. You are not immune from not being able to get fuel,” he said, describing the trip as eerie. “We take a lot of things for granted in our daily lives. That the gas station is going to have gas and the grocery store is going to have food.” Despite the challenges in deploying to emergency zones, Hurst said the trip was well worth the trouble because of the lessons he learned. Battling California blazes Lt. Patrick Richardson with Castle Rock Fire and Rescue said crews from their department spent three days working the Lilac Fire in San Diego before working 11 days on the notorious Thomas Fire. The Thomas Fire was the largest

describes as notorious for its winddriven fires. “A lot of people will look at wildland fires here on the Front Range and say, ‘Oh, it’s just a grass or weed fire.’ But if you ask a rancher what’s out in that field, they see feed,” Richardson said. “We can save that landowner quite a bit of money and feed for his livestock.” That task is easier when firefighters have learned to stay calm and focused on the job through deploying to events like the Thomas or Lilac fires, he said. The Castle Rock team, like personnel from West Metro Fire and Rescue that also worked the Thomas and Lilac Fires, were assigned to what they call “mop up.” In essence, the job means cleaning up after the fire has passed through an area to make sure it doesn’t reignite, or, working ahead of the fire to clear out fuel. “The vast majority of firefighting is not hero work. It’s dirty work. It’s grunt work,” Richardson said. Mike Johnston, an engineer with West Metro Fire Rescue, and Jonathan

Ashford, a firefighter and paramedic with the agency, have both deployed to numerous natural disasters in the past, but each time, they learn something new. “It’s kind of mixed emotions,” Johnston said, “because we enjoy doing what we’re doing and you’re working hard and you’re sweaty and you’re dirty and you stink but you’re all doing it together. You have a huge feeling of accomplishment when you persevere through all of that.” Ashford said they learn something new each time they deploy, one more reason the trips are worthwhile. Overall, Tyus said, the system is reciprocal. Colorado agencies respond to other states’ emergencies knowing that the favor will be returned if there’s ever a local catastrophe, such as the Colorado floods in 2013. “We needed it in 2013, Texas needed it last year and Florida, and Puerto Rico needed it,” Tyus said. “It means a lot to be able to work with each other and be able to serve the nation and be able to help people in need.”

VOICES We all want to leave our mark, but on what?

P

ikes Peak (with or without the apostrophe). Speer Boulevard. MLK Jr. BouALCHEMY levard. Carr Street. Stapleton International Airport (and now a Denver neighborhood). McNichol’s Arena. Ellie Caulkins Opera House. The Rosemary Slack Lending Library at the Susan M. Duncan Family YMCA. Andrea Doray Some of us might not remember places such as McNichol’s Arena, or why some of these

people are famous – Zebulon Pike’s exploration of the Rocky Mountains, for example – or even infamous, such as Denver mayor Ben Stapleton, also a high-ranking member of the KKK in the 1920s and 1930s. But their legacies live on in the places that bear their names. And some I hope we never forget, such as Martin Luther King, Jr.’s, contributions and sacrifice for basic human and civil rights. Sometimes we get to choose, if our family makes a large endowment, for example. Sometimes this honor comes posthumously, such as the lending library named after my mother, Rosemary Slack, at the YMCA in Arvada,

where she was a beloved member. What would you want your name on? For myself, I prefer something educational or literary, rather than an edifice or a roadway. For instance, I am a poet, and enjoy writing in form, such as a sonnet or sestina. And I often create my own nonce forms; that is, I develop lines or stanzas or rhyme schemes that are my own. In one of my writing workshops, another poet suggested that one of my nonce forms be called the “Dorayian” …doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue, does it? The “Doranian?” The “Dorian?” Of course, hordes of poets would then need to use my form – and

break it – for any chance that it would be named after me. Another choice – and perhaps one that might actually be attainable – would be to endow a scholarship at Lighthouse Writers Workshop, one of the finest literary centers in the country. Although I have been writing since I was a child (my mother had a stash of poems and stories from when I was nine years old), and throughout my life as an adult, joining the writing community at Lighthouse opened me up to a world I didn’t know existed. In fact, I have been the beneficiary SEE DORAY, P15

The bad kind of trust fall

I

D

’ve been thinking a lot over the past couple weeks about the concept of institutional trust. Yeah, I’ve been working on other things, too. F At any rate, the reason I’ve been thinking about this is that it seems to be failing right now, o on just about every level of society. Let me give you e some examples. a From the trivial: the Denver h Broncos. There is a huge debate p HITTING raging right now on sports talk ra- f HOME dio about what the Denver Broncos f should do with the Number Five P pick in the upcoming NFL draft. There are a million ideas, but they f o all eventually came back to this problem: after the debacle that the t last few drafts have been (last year e only one draft pick even contributed, and, at that, he was a weak point), does the fan base trust John Elway to do the right thing with those picks? The Broncos, over the Michael Alcorn last two years, have lost a good bit of institutional trust. From the purely local: I was always taught, from a management perspective, to “under-promise and F over-deliver.” This, it would seem, is especially true coming from institutions that have a monopolistic relationship with the public. So, what do you suppose happens to institutional trust levels when a school promises a community one thing as they’re selling their program, and then, behind closed doors, chooses a lesser iteration of that program? That’s exactly what happened at Drake Middle School this week. Five weeks ago, when the middle schools were talking to elementary families about the transition to a three-year middle school, Drake

LETTER TO THE EDITOR About those property tax statements In Jefferson County individual property tax statements were sent out in January. Those that included the actual statement also included an inclusion stating that the assessor’s office would only be sending 2018 Notices of Value to property owners that had a change in their property since last year. This would amount to a little more than 2,000 property owners. The remaining 200,000 plus owners would not receive an NOV. This will result in a savings of more than $125,000 to the Jefferson County taxpayers this year.

Most taxpayers received an increase in their 2017 tax statement last month. Property owners might ask why the Taxpayer Bill of Rights didn’t protect them from these double-digit increases? Jeffco is one of only a few counties in Colorado that still follows the Taxpayers Bill of Rights. Only the city of Lakewood still fully follows the Taxpayer Bill of Rights within our county. All the other cities, and almost all the fire districts and recreation districts have “deBruced” through ballot initiatives going SEE HEALEY, P9

back to 1996. One other reason is that we have had a large population growth in the Denver Metro area. About 100,000 people move in annually. However, our local construction industry can only build approximately 10,000 homes annually. This low inventory of homes causes these new people to bid up the price on existing homes. As a result, your home value continues to increase every two years. Without the Taxpayer Bill of Rights to keep local spending in check, your property taxes would rise at an even faster rate.

Bird nesting boxes will be found along the south portion of the lake, drawing a wide variety of birds and waterfowl including Canada geese, ducks and coots all of which can be playful as they fly, swim and dive into the water feeding on aquatic plant life. Anglers will find good numbers of largemouth bass, channel catfish, white and black crappie, bluegill and yellow perch in Lake Mary. The second lake in the refuge is Ladora Lake, larger at almost 55 surface acres and over 17 feet in depth. Both lakes offer excellent bank fishing and after Memorial Day anglers can wade with calf, hip or chest waders. The trail around Lake Ladora is almost 2 miles in length with a mid-point floating boardwalk offering unique views of waterfowl, birds and brush, wild flowers and tree stands. The trails are enclosed with prairie grassland and under

impressive cottonwoods, plus showy milkweed, prickly poppy and sand sagebrush. Larger fish are typically found in Lake Ladora including northern pike and largemouth bass, and bluegill. Monofilament Recovery and Recycling Stations are located around both lakes and anglers are asked to deposit used fishing line in these stations. The waste line is used for fish habitat structures plus it prevents wildlife and waterfowl from becoming entangled. The overall fishing experience is a valuable learning experience for kids and a great opportunity for parents and adults to bond together in an enriched outdoor environment a short drive from the Denver Metro urban communities.

Would he be content to know that he would have no jury-of-his-peers to protect him from prosecutorial overreach, and that the US Supreme Court might be his only savior? Further, what would be his reaction, knowing that the unelected inquisitors on that panel, being appointed by a partisan Governor, as per State law, each were required to have proverbial axes-to-grind on issues brought before them? Other than in a totalitarian state, where else would such blatantly biased jurors be tolerated? As these travesties on justice describe the fate of unfortunates dragged before the misnamed Civil Rights Commission (and various Administrative-Law-Courts as well), isn’t it imperative that a stake be driven through the heart of said Commission, and it be allowed to naturally expire, unamended, as per its 2018 ‘sunset’ requirement?

Lay all of the materials out so children can use pencils, markers, and paper to make a few sketches of possible solutions. This important step encourages children to plan. Then they can construct a few devices and discuss possibilities. Keep asking how will you slow down the descent and make the landing gentle? If possible, have a construction team to talk together.

sold the community on the idea that students would have a sevenclass schedule with three electives. Which, of course, is brilliant! Middle school kids need choices and variety to keep their brains engaged and to start discovering who they are. Then, with no community input, the staff voted last week to revert back to a six-class schedule, eliminating many choices for students, and only communicated this to the public through a “Friday afternoon news dump.” You want to know why the charter and option school movement is so strong in Colorado? Because decisions like this erode institutional trust with the public schools. To the tragic: I am a huge fan of any man or woman who has, as part of

Maybe they will be responsive to a parent outcry aimed at either the school or the upper administration. But, then, maybe not — they are probably correct to assume that they can weather any protest. A fter all, most of those students don’t have that much choice about where to go to school. But, society in general? Law enforcement is one of the few public institutions that still command widespread support. I shudder to think what happens if that support drops to the levels of, say, Congress.

So, I was shocked and devastated (much like the sheriff) to learn about what seems to be a completely inadequate response from the first responders on the scene in Parkland. The failure to engage the shooter cost lives. And all this only after both local law enforcement and the F.B.I. failed to heed multiple warnings about the shooter. Cops are human, and, I will grant them grace that they make mistakes. But, when we’re being told by some that the only way to deal with violence in society is to let the police do their jobs, and then something like Parkland happens, you can see why institutional trust might be a dodgy proposition. The problem with institutional trust is that, once weakened, the fabrics that hold society together start to

D During a 2017 Harlem Globetrotters game, Firefly Fisher shows off his talent and his hard-earned skills on the court. COURTESY PHOTOS

Globetrotting the world around

World-famous team highlights the best of basketball, showmanship BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Whether you’re a basketball fan or not, there’s a pretty good chance you’ve encountered the Harlem Globetrotters at some point. The team has been entertaining basketball fans and wider audiences alike since it was founded by Abe Saperstein in 1926. Over the years, the Globetrotters have built a reputation as being especially skilled at tricks, dunks and other displays of court mastery. But as Firefly Fisher, a guard on the team for nine years, can attest, all that ease on the court requires countless hours of work. “On this team, you have to be entertainers and basketball players,” the 31-year-old New York native said. “You have to be a special individual to do this job, and work extremely hard. But it’s all a positive, especially when you get to introduce basketball to families.”

Going to a Harlem Globetrotters game is more than just going to a basketball game. The interactive experiences gives audiences a chance to interact with players like guard TNT Lister.

As part of the Harlem Globetrotters’ 92nd world tour, the team will be stopping by the Pepsi Center, 1000 Chopper Circle in Denver, at noon and at the 1st Bank Center, 11450 Broomfield Lane in Broomfield, at 7 p.m., both on March 17. In anticipation of the metro-area stops, we spoke to Fisher about his road to the court, teaching the next generation, and what it’s like to be a member of a team that includes Pope Francis as an honorary member. How did you get into playing basketball? I was born and raised in New York. My parents were the ones who introduced me to the game when I was about 5 years old, and I grew up playing in the Boys and Girls Club. I never played any recreational ball for city teams or anything like that, and started on junior varsity in eighth grade. SEE WORLD, P22

uring summer months, it’s not difficult at all to get people to spend an evening at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. During the much colder off-months, which are November through March, it gets a little trickier. But the park and Aramark Sports and Entertainment COMING have come ATTRACTIONS Services up with a new way to not only to draw a crowd in the cold, but also to offer a uniquely intimate experience. That’s how Red Rocks Local Sets was born. “It’s a really fun event and a great Clarke Reader time at a place as beautiful as Red Rocks,” said Kristen Kennelly, special events operations with Aramark. “People get to have this rare experience at the amphitheater, and they get to do so without dealing with parking and all the crowds of people at a normal concert.” The monthly event series began in November, and the final Local Set of the year, featuring local bands Many Mountains and Miguel Dakota and the Differents, will be at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 10, at the park’s Ship Rock Grille, 18300 W. Alameda Parkway. The indoor event includes hors d’oeuvres, a complimentary welcome drink, carving stations and dinner buffet favorites. All of this is followed by performances by the bands of covers and originals. Tickets are $45. “Bands get really excited about this, because there’s not many opportunities to play Red Rocks,” Kennelly said. “They may not be to the point where they can sell out 10,000 tickets on the main stage, but this is a great place to start.” Visitors who want the same view that countless performers on Red Rocks’ world-famous stage have had can take a backstage tour of Red Rocks for an additional $8, on top of the entry ticket. “Most of the experiences people have at Red Rocks aren’t as intimate as these are,” Kennelly said. “We’re already planning on offering this again for 2018-2019, and might offer it twice a month if it continues to grow in popularity.” To get your tickets, visit www. redrocksonline.com.

Tension and wit play out on Lakewood theater stage ‘A Kid Like Jake’ produced at Bench

IF YOU GO The Bench at 40 West is at 1560 Teller St., Lakewood (former home of Edge Theater). “A Kid Like Jake” plays at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 6 p.m. Sundays, through March 24. Tickets cost $30/$20. benchmarktheatre.com. For inquiries: info@ benchmarktheatre.com.

Michael Duran’s delightful blocks/ games-like set at the newly located Bench at 40 West Theatre in Lakewood suggest child’s play as lights dim and one tunes into Alex Wheeler (Adrian Egolf), stewing over an essay. It’s part of a kindergarten application for her bright 4-year-old son Jake — she hopes to get him admitted to one of the prestigious private Manhattan schools so he’ll have the best possible start in his education ... Such is the opening of “A Kid Like Jake.” Enter Greg Wheeler, Jake’s dad and a successful lawyer (Antonio Amadeo), who, while encouraging her, also expresses concern over Jake’s preference for all things Cinderella, instead of GI Joe. Tension ... Alex has recently repaired a broken Cinderella figure. While young Jake never actually appears on the scene, he is certainly the center of this world, staged by skilled director Warren Sherrill. Linda Suttle of Littleton was assistant director. “When Jake was born, I felt like I was starting my life,” Alex recalls, perhaps a typical thought with immature young mothers, who have yet to figure out all the moving pieces involved in family life. The anxious parents visit consul-

ABOUT LINDA SUTTLE

Adrian Egolf and Antonio Amadeo play Alex and Greg, a Manhattan couple conflicted about their son’s future. PHOTO BY MCLEOD9 CREATIVE tant Judy (Martha Harmon Pardee) at Jake’s preschool, who reminds them of the odds — “Dawson had 500 applications for 30 spots last year.” And she expresses concern that Alex hasn’t mentioned the child’s inclination towards “gender-variant play, which is a big part of his personality ...” Greg wonders about taking him “to a specialist.” When he picks the child up after school, Greg takes him to McDonald’s — a no-no on Alex’s list and tension increases as each parent stresses over what might be best for their beloved child — who has been angry enough to throw Cinderella at a babysitting grandma.

Pearle’s dialogue is crisp and brings some humor to relieve tension in this collision course, but disagreements continue. And to add problems — Alex is newly pregnant! Madison McKinley Scott appears as a sympathetic nurse in a brief doctor’s office visit. The play is well-written — it premiered in New York at the Lincoln Center. The production is polished and professional and we’ll look forward to seeing more works by this young playwright, as well as additional productions by this recently organized theater company. Later this year, watch for “The Arsonists,” “Uncanny Valley,” “What You Will” and the second annual “Fever Dream Festival.”

Linda Suttle, who by day serves as victims service coordinator with the Littleton Police Department, is a is a familiar figure in the Denver area theater community as an actor and a director. She said she asked Warren Sherrill if she might work with him as assistant director of “A Kid Like Jake” in order to learn how he works with actors and be involved with “an exciting new play.”

Suttle grew up in the Littleton area with her family and their horses. At one time, their home was at the present location of Damon Runyon Elementary School, then at a spot farther west. She started singing with a band first and then began acting and directing. She has taken a bit of time off from her usual theatrical activities on evenings and weekends to enjoy an advanced acting class at Denver Center for the Performing Arts, based on playwright/director Martin McDonagh’s works (including “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri”) and is cast for a role in “Kentucky Cycle” at Vintage Theatre this summer.

It’s an active season in the publishing world as well as a great time of year to curl up with a new book or old favorite — and/or, most especially, to read aloud to children — and each other. • On Feb. 12, readers and writers gathered at Tattered Cover Aspen Grove to hear best-selling author Peter Heller offer a relaxed, humorous talk about “Celine,” a mystery based on his mother, who was a private investigator. He read several passages, including the opening lines that set the scene. It has just been published in paperback, as are his novels, “Dog Star” and “Painter.” He answered questions about his process in storytelling. (“I start with the first line …”) Heller will also be a keynote speaker at the upcoming — and impressive — March 3 Colorado Book Festival, to be held at Denver Central Library, with program chaired by well-known Castle Rock nature writer Mary Taylor Young. (More information below.) • Also tempting for the bookish among us will be the Littleton Friends of the Library/Museum’s 2018 Silent Auction, which runs March 3-31 at Bemis Library, 6014 S. Datura St., Littleton. Chairman Sue McNamee comments that this is the “quiet” sale: no tables of holiday books or bags to fill with Western Welcome Week books ••• “Instead,” she says, “we offer 24 `special’ books (and other items) in two glass cases. We display 12 books for the first two weeks, (auction ending March 17) and the next 12 books are displayed through the end of the auction, March 31. Four of the more special items will be exhibited, and bidding will continue, for the entire four weeks.” Also — there’s a 55-book set of “Harvard Classics,” which have been said to offer an education if read for 15 minutes every day. A FOL/M cashier will often be present with a notebook that holds more details about each volume, with photos—and that person will have a key for those who wish to inspect more closely. (Notebook will be at the circulation desk when volunteers are not present.) McNamee encourages bidders to check back frequently to see if someone has outbid you — and of course, she hopes you’ll raise your bid! A partial list of items available: A signed first edition of the 25thanniversary edition (1994) of Kurt Vonnegut’s “Slaughterhouse Five (or The Children’s Crusade).” As new with fine dust jacket. The final two children’s books written by Littleton’s beloved author and storyteller, Caroline Stutson, who passed away in June 2015. “Blue Corn Soup” and “My Family, Four Floors Up” were pub-

Part of the selection offered in the Littleton Friends of the Library/ Museum live auction. COURTESY PHOTO lished posthumously and donated by Al Stutson, a FOL/M board member. Three oversized photography books, offered separately: “Pilgrimage,” by Annie Liebowitz (1st. ed. 2011). “American Places” with photos by Eliot Porter (1st ed. 1981), with script by Pulitzer Prize winner Wallace Stegner and his son, Page Stegner. Leatherbound copy of “Aftermath: Unseen 911 Photographs By A New York Cop.” (1st ed. 2006). Stop by the cases near the entrance to admire these and other goodies. “Bid early and often!” Proceeds support programs at the Littleton Library and Museum. � Colorado Book Festival — March 3, Denver Central Library 10 W. 14th Ave., Denver. An all-day free festival and exhibit. Program chair Mary Taylor Bradford, Castle Rock nature writer, will moderate a panel about “Communicating Climate Change.” This first-time festival, with 100 exhibitors and an all-day schedule of expert speakers, is being put on by the Colorado Authors League and the Denver Public Library, with expectations of becoming a national caliber book festival, comparable to those in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and Atlanta, according to Bradford, who hopes area readers and authors will support this initial well-organized effort. At the 11 a.m. opening keynote, Peter Heller will be interviewed by journalist Carol McKinley about his creative process and more. Followed by multiple sessions, in multiple rooms: books about food and cooking; children’s lit; cultivating community; history; fiction; “Writing for Chicks”; “Writing for Dudes”; Graphics: reading and writing; Mysteries; Danger, Doom and Destruction — Why do we love them? — and much more. There is a special focus on supporting book clubs, with a session devoted to them — and keeping them on track. The closing keynote session will be by Patricia Limerick, Colorado state historian and faculty director and chair of CU’s Center of the American West, who will be interviewed by historian and author Richard K. Young about her book “The Legacy of Conquest,” on its 30th anniversary. For information and schedule: COBookFestival.com.

I guess I was a late bloomer to organized ball, but I just loved it. Do you remember the first time you saw or heard of the Globetrotters? I didn’t really watch them as a young kid, but I knew about them because my parents had grown up watching them. What I did know is that they traveled all over and that brought a lot of happiness to people. Playing for them is a great way to make my parents proud, which is always a goal for a kid.

How did you become a Globetrotter? I started playing for them in 2009, after being drafted to the team in 2008. I went to Siena College in upstate New York, and our team went to the NCAA in 2008. I shot 44.4 percent from three-point range as a senior that season and that’s when I was drafted. Since, I’ve been to 65 different countries, and love what I do. When I tell people I was picked for the team, they always say it’s right up my alley. I was voted class clown as senior, but I was also voted most likely to succeed. I’m just being me. What is key to being a good

Clarke’s Concert of the Week: Lorde at Pepsi Center Ever since New Zealand’s Lorde smashed into the pop world with her 2013 hit “Royals” off her debut album, she’s proven herself a pop star ahead of her time. Her approach to songwriting and use of electronic influences has changed the way musicians like Taylor Swift and many others make music. Lorde is touring in support of her stellar sophomore album — last year’s “Melodrama” — and is stopping by the Pepsi Center, 1000 Chopper Circle, at 7 p.m. on Monday, March 5. Not only will concertgoers get the opportunity to see one of the best musicians at the height of her powers, but her openers are nothing to turn up your nose at. Tove Styrke also works in the pop soundscape created by Lorde, but brings her own sense of style to the music. But the real exciting opener is Run The Jewels, the rap duo of EL-P and

member of the Globetrotters? You have to be a great basketball player, and you have to be willing to listen to all the veteran players. But what’s most important is you have to respect the culture of Globetrotters. If you come into the organization not knowing the history and sacrifices others made before you, it’s important to learn. You can go learn how to do tricks and stuff, but that’s all after they teach you the history. Not many people can last with the organization because it’s quite a commitment, and there’s a lot of time away from the family. We’re on the road for more than 200 days a year, and all the stuff people see us doing on the court is only about 40 percent of what we do. The rest of the time we’re visiting schools, talking to students about bullying and character building, and just being ambassadors of good will. As a Globetrotter, you’ve done some military tours. What is it like playing for people serving in the armed forces? We’ve done six military tours, and it’s a great experience every time. In my first year, we went to Iraq, and just three years ago, we went to Afghanistan. We did our first-ever Hoops for the Troops event in Hawaii this December. It’s so amazing to put smiles on

Killer Mike. The pair have been making some of rap music’s best work over the past four years, and their socially conscious and bombastic music is the perfect pairing for Lorde’s take on pop. This is almost guaranteed to be one of the year’s best shows, and it shouldn’t be missed. Head to www. altitudetickets.com/events/ detail/lorde to get your tickets. Pliny the Younger makes rare appearance A famous Russian will be making a stop at a bar in Highlands Ranch for just one day, and there’s going to be a line, so you’re going to want to get there early. The famous Pliny the Younger beer, which is brewed in very limited quantities by Russian River Brewing Co., will be tapped at Parry’s Pizzeria & Bar’s Highlands Ranch location, 9567 S. University Blvd. at 11 a.m. on Saturday, March 3. The doors will open for the beer tapping at 10 a.m., and the first 60 people in line will get a ticket for Pliny the Younger, and thus are guaranteed a pour. The remain-

the men and women who serve our country. And few people can relate to being away from their families and helping people like they can. What do you do for fun or to relax when you’re not playing? I spend time with my family, and I have my own basketball camp back home, which I’ve run for 14 years. I’ve always worked with kids, and always tried to be a positive role model to them. In a way, I was a Globetrotter before I officially became one. There’s nothing better than going back to your community and teaching kids. I don’t want to forget where I came from, and want my hometown to be successful as possible. What’s your favorite part about being a Globetrotter? Putting smiles on people’s faces. So many people have bad days or are facing challenges in their life — like relationships, financial or school. But when you come to a Harlem Globetrotter game, you’re guaranteed to forget about your problems for two hours. You don’t have to love basketball to love the Globetrotters, because at our games you’re going to laugh, hear great music and get to party. It’s an experience everyone should have at some time.

ing beers will be raffled off. According to information from Russian River, Pliney the Younger is almost a true Triple IPA with triple the amount of hops as a regular IPA. This beer is very full-bodied with tons of hop character in the nose and throughout. It is also deceptively well-balanced and smooth. In addition to this special tapping, Parry’s will be tapping several other Russian River beers, as well as brews from Surly Brewing Co. and Anchorage Brewing Co. Parry’s will also offer its breakfast pizza, which includes scrambled eggs, green peppers, onions, bacon, cheddar. For more information, visit www.parryspizza.com/ locations/highlands-ranch.

There’s a red line on the second floor of St. Anthony Hospital that most people don’t cross. Behind this line on the trauma center and operating rooms floor, doctors, surgeons, nurses, technicians, specialists and other St. Anthony staff work 24 hours a day to provide cutting edge surgeries and life-saving care. “We have 12 operating rooms here, some dedicated to specific surgeries, and others that can be used for several different procedures,” said Lyndsey Green, assistant nurse manager for the OR, and registered nurse clinical coordinator for trauma and general surgery. “We typically see anywhere from 25 to 30 cases a day, and can do anything from pediatric to neurosurgery.”

••• For the uninitiated, navigating the labyrinthine hallways and rooms, lingo and terminology, and hieroglyphic-like scheduling white board can be more than a little daunting. But if one thing is apparent, to even the most unaware layperson, it’s that these relationships transcend work colleagues. It’s a family on every level. Everyone says hello to each other in the hall, catching up and seeing if any help is needed. Perhaps there’s a quick clarification about the days schedule, or when someone can leave for the day. “I’m the charge nurse, but that’s a term I really don’t like,” Green said. “I prefer team leader, because I’m just here to help. Nobody here is afraid to ask for help or assistance, because we’re all here to do the best for our patients. The patient is what matters.” Most patient’s visit to the floor begins in pre-op, where they are prepared for the day’s surgery. They might interact with Ross Varga, the department’s pharmacist if there is any question about medicine or any last-minute safety catches. These safety catches are the quintessential example of how the familial atmosphere on the floor is a boon

St. Anthony Hospital’s operating room department’s hybrid operating room, which is a flexible space for a variety of surgeries. The room is home to some state of the art medical technology. for patients — everyone is on the lookout for problems or issues that might have been overlooked, but could become a problem later. Those safety catches are so important that every morning, representatives from almost all the hospital’s departments, gather for a “safety huddle.” It’s a chance to celebrate staff members that have gone above and beyond, as well as to go over areas where mistakes were made, or there is room for improvement. “It gets all of us in the mood to start the day, and helps us put on our safety goggles for the day,” explained Laura Rog-

ers, associate chief nursing officer at St. Anthony. “Every day we impact people’s lives, and every day we fulfill what is most needed by our patients.” ••• Damien Berg, manager of Sterile Processing for the hospital, has a simple motto for his department — make sure staff has what the equipment they need when they need it, that it works, and that its clean and sterile. “Sometimes people ask why clean and sterile is last, especially with the department we’re in, but it doesn’t matter

if the equipment is clean or not if it’s not there when it is needed, and if it doesn’t work, who cares if it’s clean,” he said. “All three aspects of the motto align to provide the best, safest equipment to those who need it.” The Sterile Processing room, which is located on the OR floor, processes about 13,000 pieces of equipment a month, and is the first step in a journey that leads to the operating room. Equipment is meticulously cleaned, sterilized, and prepared to national standards — a process that takes about three hours from start to finish. From there, supply chain specialists like Beverly Vigil and Roger Villasana help prepare carts full of supplies and materials needed for the day’s procedures, so doctors and nurses have everything ready, and in one place. “We’re a very busy facility, and there’s a lot of turn over and it’s a challenge to keep up with everything,” Villasana said. “But it really helps that we all work so well together. That makes it better for everyone.” That same emphasis on teamwork is crucial once the surgery actually begins, no matter what the operation is. On any given day, the OR will see hernia, cardiac, and spinal surgery — sometimes all happening at the same time, in different rooms. “So many of our doctors, nurses and the rest of the

staff are cross-trained, so they can go from one kind of operation to another if necessary,” Green said. “One of the things that makes our OR special is how quickly we can change to deal with situations as they come in.” Medical technology is constantly evolving, and St. Anthony is working to keep up. The hospital has invested in robotic surgery procedures, and trains students and staff in house, to the highest of standards. “We can have heart surgeries that go as long as 10 to 12 hours,” said Jen Blanset, a registered nurse in the Cardiovascular OR. “The team almost always stays throughout the entire procedure. It’s a constant process of improvement.” •••

Above the entrance to every OR room in St. Anthony is a crucifix, but perhaps no room in the hospital is as in need of divine oversight as the trauma room, T-10. The hospital is designated as a Level I Trauma Center by the State of Colorado Department of Health. A Level I designation is the highest level of definitive and comprehensive emergency and trauma care for patients with complex injuries, and it sees some of those in the direst straits. This includes patients from the mountains and nearby w states flown in by Flight for i Life Colorado. m d w SEE OPERATING, P29

St. Anthony celebrates 125 years of healing On social media, hospital shares stories of its founding

A photo of St. Anthony Hospital at its original location by Sloan’s Lake. The hospital was started here in 1892, and grew over the years to the point where it needed a new home. In 2011, the hospital officially opened its new home in Lakewood.

For Darcy Copeland, a registered nurse science specialist at St. Anthony hospital, it almost felt like returning home when she started working at the hospital in 2010. It was, after all, where she was born. “Having been born there, and finding myself back here, I’ve seen the hospital’s commitment to the community,” she said. “There’s so much history behind this hospital, and at the same time, we’re always making new history.” Copeland is just one of the many people whose lives have been impacted by the hospital’s work, which has been going on for a long, long time – 125 years to be exact. To celebrate that major milestone — the official anniversary is June 20 — St. Anthony is hosting a community event on June 9. But it’s also finding little ways to highlight people and achievements, such as with “Throw Back Thursday” historical posts on the hospital’s Facebook page and profiles of associates, volunteers and physicians to share on social media. “We wouldn’t have made it so long if it wasn’t for our team members and physicians,” said Edward Sim, the hospital’s CEO. “It all goes to our mission — ‘We extend the healing ministry of Christ by caring for those who are ill and by nurturing the health of the people in our communities’ — and our people.” The hospital started at its original Sloan’s Lake Campus in 1892. It was founded by a small group of Sisters of St. Francis — including one nun who believed St. Anthony spoke directly with her — who were mainly funded by contributions from Denver railroadmen and miners. Since then, the hospital has been home to several significant achievements: In 1960, it became the first hospital in Denver to

before, during and after surgery. That level of staff certification has earned the hospital the CNOR Strong designation from the Competency and Credentialing Institute. “I can’t tell you how much admiration I have for everyone on this staff. Because sometimes, especially in emergencies, we only have 10 to 15 minutes to get to know the patient before we have to operate,” Green

Because there’s a red line on the second floor of St. Anthony Hospital that most people don’t cross.

SPORTS REMEMBERING GRACE

Former Valor football coach excited about his new job

R

the fourth quarter with a 3-pointer to give D’Evelyn a 42-30 lead.

od Sherman is excited about the upcoming high school football season. I know because he used the word “excited” several times in a brief conversation. Yes, I know, that statement might sound silly since Sherman has been associated with the Valor Christian football program OVERTIME that has won 112 games over 10 seasons and seven state championships. Most people would be excited about coaching within the program that exists at Valor. Sherman was the Eagles’ head coach Jim Benton the past five seasons, but Valor announced in December that he was out as football coach. He examined other opportunities but was named on Feb. 15 the new coach at Arapahoe, a program that has gone 8-15 the past two seasons. “We just felt like this was right,” said Sherman. “I think sometimes when you get pushed out of the nest you take a step back and say: `Where is the opportunity for impact and where is an opportunity to maybe hopefully do something that is great?’ My wife and I feel that opportunity exists at Arapahoe. We’re really excited about it.” Sherman has met with Arapahoe players and their parents. He explained his visions for changing the culture at Arapahoe. “When I was at Valor I helped set the athletic culture,” said Sherman, who was Valor’s first athletic director. “There are adjustments when you are changing cultures versus when you are starting from scratch. There are probably more similarities. Sometimes communities, schools and football programs don’t understand they can be great.” He mentioned Pomona, which ranks 65th in CHSAA enrollment figures, as an example that big things can be accomplished. Pomona has an enrollment of 1,432, but the Panthers over the past few years have won state championships in football, wrestling, gymnastics and boys track. Arapahoe’s enrollment is 2,155, the 14th-largest in the state. Sherman said players have been receptive to his ideas and he is creating his coaching staff with members of the Warriors staff, coaches he has

D’Evelyn girls basketball advances to 7th straight Sweet 16 Will face Golden’s Makena and Prey this week BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

DENVER — It’s now seven years and counting for D’Evelyn girls basketball team. “We are excited about it,” D’Evelyn coach Chris Olson said after the Jaguars’ second round Class 4A home victory over The Classical Academy on Feb. 23. “To get to the Sweet 16 for seven straight years with a school of 600 kids playing in 4A is pretty cool.” The No. 7-seeded Jaguars (18-6 record) trailed early against No. 26 TCA, who have a similar pressure defense and running style as D’Evelyn. It took a 12-0 run by the Jaguars during a 5-minute span in the first quarter to turn the tide. Still, D’Evelyn struggled shooting at times and missed five free throws in the second quarter while maintaining a 29-19 lead at halftime. “On the one end, we are always going to play that way,” Olson said of the Jaguars’ controlled chaos style of pressure defending and pushing the ball up the court. “The shooting part has been more of a struggle this year then most. I think our team has kind of embraced it. They know we’ll go on a run scoring 12 points in a couple

Ex-Golden basketball coach says he didn’t shove players John Anderson says he only used profanity at practice once during the 2017-18 season BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Allegations of using profanity at practice. Of shoving players. Of bullying. This year’s boys basketball season went dismally different from what former Golden High School coach John Anderson had expected. The toll that the investigation into allegations that he mistreated players took on Anderson caused him to resign from coaching on Dec. 22, he said. “I felt that by me stepping Anderson down, it would alleviate the stress for everyone,” Anderson, 50, said. “Unfortunately, that has not been the case.” Anderson is accused of misconduct by means of bullying, use of profanity and, specifically during a Nov. 29 practice, shoving players. The accusations prompted an internal investigation by Jefferson County Public Schools and an investigation by the Golden Police Department that included a 23-page offense report. The Golden Police completed its investigation, and no charges were filed, said Karlyn Tilley, spokeswoman for the Golden Police Department. In a document dated Jan. 5, the school district stated its findings: “We have determined that the coach violated district policy and failed to meet or exceed our standards.” Anderson was put on leave from his coaching duties at the end of November. His resignation ended the school district’s investigation, said Diana Wilson, Jefferson County Public Schools’ chief communications officer. Anderson has taught physical education at Golden High School for 21 years, and will continue to do so, he said. The allegations only involved his

coached with before and some former players. “There is great excitement at Arapahoe, and that’s not a statement that there was not excitement in the past,” added Sherman. “I am incredibly excited. I didn’t take this job because I have a son I want to coach. I didn’t have to have a football job. I took this job because of how excited my family and I are to build the program at Arapahoe High School that can ultimately be synonymous with excellence in football.”

coaching, Wilson said. “There have been no complaints about his teaching performance,” she said. Colorado Community Media made an open-records request for the offense report from the Golden Police Department. The request was denied because of a state statute protecting information obtained by law enforcement through the Safe2Tell program. Safe2Tell provides students, parents, teachers and community members a way to report a serious concern or safety threat anonymously. The Golden Police Department’s records manager said the report was not provided to any media outlets. However, the Denver Post obtained the report and posted the document on its website on Feb. 9. The report alleges that there were incidents of Anderson using profanity toward players and one incident in which he shoved/pushed players during a pregame warm-up exercise in which players were to line up in numerical order. Anderson said he did not physically shove a player. “I placed my hands on the shoulders of players, and walked with them into their position,” he said. “At no time did any player lose their balance.” He also said he had used only profanity at the team this season, but admitted to swearing in seasons prior — something he wishes he had not done, he added. “The allegations consisted of claims of profanity in the past season,” Anderson said. “I made a conscious effort this season to find more effective ways to communicate without using profanity.” Anderson began coaching football at Golden High School in 1993, and was the assistant football coach until 2001, when he became the head basketball coach. His career record is 262-140, and he has led the team to Final 4 appearances in 2003, 2005 and 2017. He notes that he has high expectations for the student-athletes on the basketball court, in the classroom and in the community. “We have built a well-respected program in this state by setting these expectations,” Anderson said. And despite everything that has happened this year, Anderson added that “Golden is still a great place to teach and coach.”

Pilot seasons Boys volleyball, girls wrestling and unified bowling are closer to becoming Colorado High School Activities Association’s sanctioned sports. All three activities were approved Feb. 21 by the board of directors to begin pilot seasons. Under a newly adopted bylaw, the three sports were the first to present pilot programs for consideration. The Classification and League Organizing Committee, the Sports Medicine Committee, the Equity Committee and the Legislative Council need to support the new sport. The boys volleyball pilot season will be this spring. Girls wrestling will start its pilot season in the 2018-19 winter season. The timetable for co-ed unified bowling will be revealed at the

‘Bullying is a serious accusation’ Q&A with John Anderson

April meeting of the board of directors. Boys volleyball and girls wrestling will have two-year pilot seasons. There are 23 states that currently sanction boys volleyball and seven states, including Colorado, considering the sport. There were 50 club boys volleyball teams competing in the Colorado Boys Volleyball Association in 2017. Only six states sanction girls wrestling but Georgia, Oregon and Colorado are considering adopting the sport. During the recently completed season there were 235 female wrestlers who competed on boys teams and there were several girls-only tournaments. Changing seasons Spring is approaching, as official

practice for spring sports teams started Feb. 26. Baseball, girls golf, boys and girls lacrosse, girls soccer, boys swimming, girls tennis and boys and girls track are the spring sports. Defending area state champions are Valor Christian in 4A baseball, Ralston Valley in 5A girls golf, D’Evelyn in 4A girls soccer, Mountain Vista in 5A girls soccer, Valor in 4A boys lacrosse and Cherry Creek in 5A boys lacrosse. Cherry Creek is the defending 5A girls tennis champion. Lutheran is the defending 3A boys track and field champion. Jim Benton is a sports writer for Colorado Community Media.

“It was a big confidence booster for me personally,” Reed said of her 3-pointer. “It kind of felt like it sealed it a little bit.” D’Evelyn had good balance scoring with seniors Bailey Marvel (12 points), Reed (11 points) and junior Tori Szathmary (11 points) all pouring in double digits. TCA was led by junior Maddie Ivan’s 15 points.

D’Evelyn and The Classical Academy both advanced to the Sweet 16 of the 4A state tournament last season. The Jaguars’ season ended there with a lost to Pueblo West, while the Titians’ season came to a close with a loss to Windsor. TCA finished this season with a 17-8 record. D’Evelyn is now on a 6-game winning streak. The Jaguars finished in a 3-way tie for second in the talented 4A Jeffco League. In fact, the conference featured four teams — Valor Christian, Evergreen, D’Evelyn and Golden — holding seeds in the top-10 for the

state tournament. All four advanced with wins Friday to the Sweet 16 coming up on Tuesday, Feb. 27. No. 10 Golden is next up for D’Evelyn. The Demons swept the two league games against D’Evelyn with wins of 53-39 and 40-32. “It’s hard to beat a team three times,” Reed said of the re-match against Golden. “Playoffs, anything can happen.” D’Evelyn must contain Golden seniors Abby Garnett and Makena Prey. The 6-footers have combined for 63 points in the two previous meetings

against the Jaguars. “It’s hard guarding (Abby Garnett and Makena Prey) when they are in together,” Marvel said. “We need to pressure their guards and force other girls to make plays besides Abby and Makena.” Olson believes despite being the higher seed and at home, the Jaguars will be seen as the underdog in Tuesday’s Sweet 16 game.

Golden hoopster stymie Pueblo teams in second round of playoffs STAFF REPORT

There is likely not a lot of folks in Pueblo, Colorado who are happy with Golden right now. On Feb. 23, the Golden Girls Basketball Team grounded the Pueblo East Eagles, winning the second round 4A playoff game 44-21. The low-scoring game was close going into halftime — 15-8 —

but the Demons added 29 points in the second half, while still holding Pueblo East to single-digits each quarter. Senior duo Makena Prey and Abby Garnett turned in a combined 30 points for Golden. Garnet was a flawless 4-for-4 from the free-throw line, and Prey added 15 rebounds. For the Sweet-16 round, the girls

faced 4A Jeffco foe D’Evelyn on Feb. 27. After a first round bye, the Golden boys basketball team beat Pueblo Central 69-34 in a second round 4A playoff game on Feb. 24.

Flu season makes impact across Colorado Health officials say it’s not too late to get vaccine

SIGNS OF THE FLU VS. A STOMACH VIRUS Many believe nausea and vomiting are the first signs of influenza, more commonly known as the flu. According to Dr. John Douglas, executive director of Tri-County Health Department, nausea and vomiting are not signs of influenza, but rather symptoms of a stomach virus.

BY TABATHA STEWART TSTEWART@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A record number of Coloradans have been hospitalized for the flu this year, and metro-area health officials are urging residents to get the vaccine for the contagious illness if they haven’t already done so. This year’s flu season has resulted in more than 3,550 people being hospitalized in Colorado, with one recorded pediatric death in the state. According to a Feb. 17 flu report issued by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, the 2017-2018 season has seen the highest number of influenza-associated hospitalizations in a single season for Colorado. The nation has seen some of the highest levels of flu-like illness and hospitalization rates in recent years, with elevated activity occurring in most of the country, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. With about two months left in the flu season, which typically runs from November through the end of April, local officials say vaccination is still a good idea — even amid talk of this season’s vaccine being less effective than in a typical year. “It’s not just how effective the vaccine is at completely preventing infection,” said Dr. John Douglas, executive director of Tri-County Health Department, which serves Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties. “The vaccine can also reduce the severity of the infection, and is fairly effective in reducing the degree if you get infected. It can also reduce your contagiousness to others, so if you live with somebody who would really get sick with the flu, get vaccinated. You’ll be doing them all a favor.” There are four types of influenza in play this year, Douglas said, and the effectiveness of the vaccine has varied depending on the type of flu. H3N2 (A) has been one of the most common strains, and according to Douglas, the vaccine rate of effectiveness has been about 25 percent. The vaccine has been between 42 percent and 67 percent effective in fighting other types of flu, he said. According to the CDC’s seasonal infuenza vaccine effectiveness report, since 2005, effectiveness has ranged from a low of 10 percent in 2005 to a high of 60 percent in 2010-11, with a typical year being 40-something percent. Impact on children Douglas said the one pediatric death this season in Colorado is one too many. “As it’s turning out, the majority of the kids nationally who died from the flu did not get the vaccine,” said Douglas. “The vaccine is never perfect, but is does appear to still have some

True flu symptoms can come on quickly, and include upper-respiratory issues, a runny nose and cough, along with a sore throat, Douglas said. A fever, fatigue and body aches can also be symptoms of the contagious illness.

“You can start your day feeling fine, but by the end of the day have a severe sore throat and fever, along with a cough that leaves you feeling miserable,” Douglas said. “You need to heed those symptoms and avoid going to work, out in public or to that party you were planning on.”

WHO SHOULD GET THE VACCINE? People 6 months of age and older are recommended for an annual flu vaccine, with rare exceptions, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

protectiveness to it.” The state reports flu-associated hospitalizations, and as of Feb. 17, 36 children under the age of six months have been admitted to hospitals so far; 66 children from six to 23 months have been admitted, and 81 children between two and four years have been admitted. While 146 school-age children from 5 to 18 years old have been admitted to hospitals, officials at metro-area school districts say they have not seen a higher-than-usual absenteeism rate this school year. Jefferson County Public Schools is among those districts. “Our community has not seen an increase in absences compared to this time last year,” said Julie Wilken, R.N., director of the Department of Health Services. “We take the education and prevention of any illness, not just flu, very seriously in our schools. During these winter months, our district nurses have taken a very proactive approach in educating our school staff and students about the importance of hand washing. We have implemented extra signs up in our schools demonstrating how to appropriately wash hands, reminded teachers and principals of our hand-washing protocol and distributed it via paper and email, and our nurses have gone into classrooms and prac-

Rare exceptions include people with severe, life-threatening allergies to the flu vaccine or any ingredient in the vaccine. This might include gelatin, antibiotics or other ingredients. Those who have a history of severe allergic reaction to eggs, the CDC says, should be vaccinated in an inpatient or outpatient medical setting, under the supervision of a health care provider who is able to recognize and manage severe allergic conditions. The vaccine can “reduce flu illnesses, doctors’ visits, and missed work and school due to flu, as well as prevent flu-related hospitalizations,” the CDC’s website says.

ticed good hand-washing techniques using Glo Germ products with black lights.

Proportionately it’s been those without a vaccine, but those who have received the vaccine are also at risk,” said Peko. “There have been more than 63 pediatric deaths nationally so far, so this is pretty serious.” Peko said recognizing true flu symptoms is vital in combating the spread of influenza. “Influenza comes with a true fever, body aches and a cough,” said Peko.

“It’s highly contagious, and anyone with the flu should wait until at least 24 hours without a fever, without using ibuprofen or Tylenol, before returning to work or school.” Douglas agrees that identifying the flu is key to preventing spread of the virus, and recommends calling your doctor for a prescription for Tamiflu if you believe you have the flu. “If you get a flu-like illness, and especially if you have an underlying medical condition, we recommend you make that phone call to your doctor for an antiviral. Don’t go to a waiting room and infect other people,” said Douglas. Flu season is something everyone needs to take seriously, and taking precautions benefits communities across the state. “Flu kills more people than any other infectious disease,” he said. “We have better prevention tools, but we need as many people as possible to take it seriously.”
