ago. Art clears my soul. I can put all of my feelings into it.

Organizer of Illustrated Ladies

Illustrated Ladies Last November, a group of women artists and I started Illustrated Ladies. We create art and donate a portion of the proceeds to women in need. It’s not quite off the ground yet. We launched our online store on Sept. 18, and we’ll soon be pursing our nonprofit license. We plan on partnering with local nonprofits. I paint, and make lamps and other craft items. We have one lady that makes jewelry and another that makes tapestries and unique throw pillows. They’re all beautiful things. Illustrated Ladies began with two people with an idea. My niece Nicole King who lives in Texas, Chelsea Hutchinson, who lives in Parker — she’s the one who really helped me decide to go in this direction — and I

About me I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009 and fought it for seven years. I love life today more than I ever did. I moved out here a few years ago to heal from a staph infection caused by breast cancer. It was the healthiest place for me to come. Then I moved out of state for a while, but came back a few months ago. And I plan on staying. I feel like Golden is pre-heaven. I love it here. I’m 57. I work in tech support for Microsoft full time. I’ve been painting for 30 years, but I just started on canvas about a year

are the prime organizers. Now it’s grown to 10 women artists in Texas and Denver-metro. Women helping women There was a lot of abuse in my family due to alcoholism. Illustrated Ladies started from a conversation with my niece. But each of us (involved with Illustrated Ladies) have dealt with abuse and a rough life, so we understand women’s struggles. Abuse is prevalent everywhere, and we want to make a difference. We want to help women believe in themselves because there’s so many that don’t. It takes a long time, but I am living proof that it can be done. There’s a lot of survival in me, and I plan making this survive as well.

Foothills raises $50K to help homeless pets STAFF REPORT

Hundreds of animal lovers helped raise $50,000 to help with medical, behavioral and life-saving care for homeless pets. Dogs dressed in their best and most creative costumes were a highlight of the second Toby’s Pet Parade and Fair on Sept. 16 at Parfet Park in Golden. Proceeds benefited the Foothills Animal Shelter. Prizes were awarded for best group and most original costumes, and guests enjoyed food trucks, a beer garden, live music, dog demonstrations, family activities and vendors. “We are thrilled with the success of the second annual Toby’s Pet Parade & Fair,” said Richard Eveleight, executive director of the animal shelter. “The support from our community is overwhelming, and it’s only because of this support that we are able to care for more than 9,200 animals every year.” Toby, an 11-year-old Australian shepherd, was found running the streets of Westminster with his mouth taped shut with electrical tape. Toby was brought to Foothills Animal Shelter for care and recovery. Despite being a victim of abuse, Toby’s good-natured, loving spirit never waned and he was eventually made the official mascot of Foothills Animal Shelter. To honor Toby, the shelter created the community event to raise the critical funds needed to support and care for homeless pets like him.

The second annual Toby’s Pet Parade & Fair, on Sept. 16, drew a crowd of nearly 1,500 people and 165 dogs dressed up in their best and most creative costumes, including this Wild West team. PHOTO COURTESY THE FOOTHILLS ANIMAL SHELTER

Your Annual Opportunity to Tour Solar & Sustainable Homes Is October 7

Golden Real Estate is pleased to be a cosponsor of a tour of solar and sustainable homes, held each fall. I’m honored to serve on the tour’s steering committee, which works year-round to select homes for participation in this event on the first Saturday of October every year. What used to be called the “Golden Solar Tour” is now the Metro Denver Green Homes Tour (see ad below). It features clusters of solar and sustainable homes in Arvada/Westminster, Littleton, Denver, Lakewood and Genesee/Evergreen. Tickets are $10 and you can pre-register online at www.MetroDenverGreenHomesTour.org (pre-registration closes at 3:00 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 6th). You may also register and pick up your guidebook in person the day of the tour at the Jefferson Unitarian Church (JUC) at 14350 W. 32nd Avenue, about a mile west of I-70 and Youngfield Street or at 9988 Hoyt Place in Westminster; or 6281 S. Cedar Street in Littleton. This Metro Denver tour is part of a national event sponsored by the American Solar Energy Society (ASES). In October 2016, over 30,000 people toured solar and sustainable homes in over 60 cities in tours like this one.

At Golden Real Estate, we care a lot about sustainability (we power both our office and automobiles from the sun), but each year I learn of sustainable options about which I was previously unaware. If this topic interests you — whether for its economic or save-the-planet benefits — I encourage you to sign up for this tour. Tour hours are 9am to 4pm on Saturday, Oct. 7th. You can start anytime, but all the houses close to visitors at 4pm, after which you’re invited to return to JUC for the reception (free food and beverages) and Green Expo featuring various vendors and non-profits whose on-site representatives can help deepen your understanding of what you learned during your tour. One stop in the Arvada/Westminster cluster that you won’t want to miss is the GEOS Community of net-zero homes. This 300-unit development was under construction when it was featured in last year’s tour. It’s on the tour again this year so you can see how it has come to fruition. The homes are heated geothermally, without any forced air furnaces, and their solar panels provide enough energy for each home plus one electric car. (Every unit has a carport with a 240V charging station included.) There is a 12-minute

YouTube video interview I did last year with builder Norbert Klebl, detailing how the homes are built. You can find that video by Googling “GEOS Community Arvada.” In the interview, we discuss various aspects of netzero energy home construction — walls, insulation, windows, CERV’s, ground-source heat pumps, and more. You might need to watch it more than once to absorb it all! Other “special” homes on the tour include a straw bale home in Genesee and a “smart home” with no furnace (thanks to extensive passive solar features) in Westminster. There’s a 1985 passive solar remodel in Arvada and another passive house in South Denver. There are homes with both thermal and photovoltaic systems in Lakewood, and you’ll like the xeriscape gardens in Littleton. Again, this is a self-guided tour. Pick up your guidebook during sign-in, decide which homes you want to see and go to them in any order you wish. Volunteers will be at each location to help explain the solar and/or sustainable features of that house and answer your questions. I’m impressed with the number of new products and technological breakthroughs

happening in the field of sustainable homebuilding. If you’ve been on this tour before, don’t hesitate to come again this year. You’ll learn new and interesting things! Be prepared to learn a lot you didn’t know about how to make your existing home more economical and sustainable through smart retrofits, not just how to build a sustainable home from scratch. Enjoy the experience, and let me know how it was for you!

A Couple Important Facts About Flood Insurance

The flooding in Texas and Florida finds many of us wondering how we’re protected in case we experience a similar disaster. Here’s some of what you need to know. 1) Your homeowner’s insurance covers you for water damage only when the water enters the home before hitting the ground. If the water hits the ground first, it’s considered flooding, and you have to buy flood insurance to be covered for it. 2) Flood insurance does not cover a flooded basement except for items in the basement (such as furnace and water heater) that serve the above-grade floors.

Nerves were high, but so was musicality as 15 Jefferson County high school marching bands took the field for their first performance of the season at the Jeffco Marching Band Festival held Sept. 19 at Jeffco Stadium. Lakewood High School took first palace in the 5A division, which is home to bands from schools with the largest student population. “It’s not about the award,” said Andrew Komitor, junior. “But I think it’s great to show how much time we put into it.” Likewise, Lakewood High Drum Major Anna Hirschmann said winning the first competition of the season is a good benchmark to set for the season. Other first place winners from the night were Bear Creek (4A), Conifer (3A) and D’Evelyn (2A). Most schools will compete in five competitions throughout the season, and one additional performance if they make it to the state competition. Cory Goshhorn, band director at

In the six months since the Frank DeAngelis Center for Community Safety opened, over 4,000 officer from 34 law enforcement agencies have trained there. Named after former Columbine High Principal Frank DeAngelis, the center is located at the Martensen Elementary School building in Wheat Ridge. Martensen opened in 1954 and closed to students in 2011. The school site has since been transformed into the first of its kind in the country: a training facility for local law enforcement and other first responders preparing for active shooter situations and crisis prevention in a school environment. “It’s a pretty extraordinary facility,” said Jefferson County Public Schools board of education member Brad Rupert. “It honors Frank very well as an important and honored leader in crisis in our district. I think it honors those who lost their lives at Columbine, it honors our commitment to the safety of our students and our staff, and it honors the partnership that we do have with our resource officers who provide a great service to us at no cost to the district.” The district currently offers the site at no cost to local law enforcement, and has also partnered with other area school districts including Denver, Aurora and Adams 12 Five Star to offer training. But John McDonald, Jeffco’s executive director of safety, security and emergency management, and Steve Bell, chief operating officer for the district, have plans to enhance the center’s financial situation in the years to come. One way of doing that is to create a

To do this, he said they are looking to government agencies like the FBI and homeland security. “We’re not going out and competing with fundraisers at the schools,” Bell said. “we’re going elephant hunting, for lack of a better term.” Bell said he has already had discussions with state and federal agencies in and out of law enforcement as well as two state universities who are interested in developing training programs at the center with their criminology curriculum. McDonald said this school year has started out with more significant lockdowns in Jeffco schools than he has seen in his tenure. Incidents range from a missing five-year-old to a man with a knife on campus. Last week, a suspicious person brought a gun into Bear Creek High School, McDonald said, but campus security was able to stop him. “We are seeing an increase in security and emergency management needs and we’re not alone, we’re seeing this throughout the country,” McDonald said. “The training we’re doing at the DeAngelis center helps us every single day we’re responding to critical events.”

Local responders tasked with national relief

West, South Metro crews help with Irma, Harvey and Western wildfires BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

First responders see a lot of tragedy in their line of work, but Eric Hurst, who recently returned from assisting local emergency services in Orlando, Florida, after Hurricane Irma, described the experience as “especially eye-opening.” “As I drove to Valdosta (Georgia), gas stations were all out of gas… it was a struggle to find fuel or find stores that had food,” said Hurst, public information officer for South Metro Fire Rescue. “Then, heading south on I-75, just seeing the traffic jam of everyone going north and fleeing the storm… it was disaster movie-like,” he said. Colorado Task Force 1, a FEMA-administered group composed of more than 200 members from more than a

COURTESY PHOTO dozen Colorado departments, spread out across the United States over the last month as Hurricane Irma, Hurricane Harvey and ongoing wildfires in Oregon and California tested the limits of local resources. The force included more than two dozen responders from the West Metro Fire Protection District and South Metro Fire Rescue. Ronda Scholting, public

information officer with West Metro, said 11 members of her district went to Texas and Florida. All but four — HAZMAT specialists assisting with potentially dangerous cleanup details — had returned as of Sept. 20, she said. The work takes the crews far from their jurisdictions, but Scholting said it’s what they signed on for. “These crews have gone

Hurst coordinated law enforcement protection for Urban Search and Rescue teams, who may encounter looter-wary residents, abandoned methamphetamine labs or any number of dangerous circumstances upon entering flood-damaged homes. While those teams headed south and east, other crews from both districts continued to battle wildfires to the west. South Metro recently sent four firefighters to a 14-day deployment to the Eclipse Complex Fire near Happy Camp, California, replacing another four-person team after their two-week deployment ended.

recently finished work in Oregon fighting the Miller Complex Fire and a team of three responders just completed their 14-day deployment in California. As of Sept. 21, they were all on the road back to Colorado, “but that could change in an hour,” Scholting said. In case any Coloradans worry local resources are being spread thin, Scholting said inter-departmental agreements at the local level ensure each district has the manpower needed to protect itself. The big picture, she said, is cooperation between national and state organizations to serve citizens wherever help is needed. Out-of-state forces came to Colorado to assist when floods struck Lyons in 2013, and they helped battle the Hayman Fire in 2002, as well as other wildfires since. It’s not a question of if Colorado will need the help again, it’s more likely a matter of when. “Everyone does it with the assumption that if we need it, we count on being able to call on federal agencies,” Scholting said. “We may need this help at some point in time.”

Third graders learn reading is valuable in the real world Golden Elks deliver dictionaries to six local schools BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

What letter does zebra start with? This was one question Wayne Rogers, secretary of the Golden Elks Lodge, asked Leanna Leisengring’s students after they had their new dictionaries in hand. “Open up your books and find the word zebra,” Rogers said. So the third graders started flipping through the pages, and when they found the word at the near end of the dictionary, they excitedly replied: “Z.” Then, after spending another five or 10 minutes in Leisengring’s classroom, Rogers and fellow Elks Arlene Munyon and Andrew Hanes made their way to the three other third-grade classrooms at Fairmount Elementary School. The Golden Elks Lodge made its annual delivery of dictionaries to area third graders Sept. 18-20. They went to Coal Creek Canyon K-8, Kyffin, Welchester and Fairmount elementary schools, and both Compass Montessori schools. “It’s always fun visiting the schools and giving the kids dictionaries,” Rogers said. The school visits also give the Elks an opportunity to talk to the students

Elks with our students,” said Fairmount Principal Sally Mills. “The Elks are cheered by visiting with the students, and students are always happy to have visitors.” In addition, Mills said, it helps third graders realize that reading is valued in the real world, outside of their classrooms. This year, the Elks gave out 316 dictionaries to the students, who get to keep the dictionary as their own. Each third-grade teacher also got a thesaurus to use in the classroom and a bag full of drug awareness school supplies — rulers, pencils, crayons, coloring books. Students in Ted Bakanec’s class will be using the dictionaries for editing purposes and to teach the students skills such as how to use guide words to find a word in the dictionary, he said. “I think it is beneficial for students to receive their own dictionary to give them more ownership in their writing,” Bakanec said. The Golden Elks have been doing The Dictionary Project since 2009. It is made possible with an Elks National Foundation Gratitude Grant. Dictionaries are important tools for Danielle Gibson, a third-grade teacher at Fairmount Elementary School, pulls out rulers, pencils and other school supplies provided by the Golden Elks Lodge.

Mental-wellness innovators reunite with investors Community First Foundation eager to work with next batch of organizations

HOW TO PARTICIPATE The Community First Foundation is preparing to take applications for untested organizations as part of its second Innovators Society Pitch Showdown. The theme for organizations this time will be reducing the stigma around mental health and wellness.

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

What a difference a year makes. Just ask the six organizations that a year ago received a share of $500,000 in grants from the Community First Foundation in its first Innovators Society Pitch Showdown. In the ensuing 12 months, Project Helping has recruited 37 new event leaders to help host volunteer events that improve mental wellness of all involved. Clayton Early Learning recruited seven teachers into its Embrace program, which helps to build teachers’ emotional wellness through mindfulness and coaching. Bright By Three signed up about 8,000 Coloradoans to its text program, which sends helpful messages and information to new and struggling parents. CU-Denver School of Public Affairs’ Patient-Centered Network reached 90 percent programmed on its patientfocused app that analyzes a patient’s social support network data and provides a menu of resources to providers as they deliver care. Im’Unique held 100 Breakin’ Bread, Breakin’ Barriers sessions, which allowed participants to share their stories of the challenges they case and reduce the stigma of mental illness. And the Carson J.

So, as Noah Atencio, vice president of community impact at Community First Foundation, sees it — a successful first program, if not without challenges. “Community First is becoming a leader in mental wellness,” Atencio said. “It’s going to take the whole community to change the stigma on mental health, and we want to jump in.” Representatives of the five organizations continuing to do work met with supporters and Community First members at Red Rocks Community College’s Arvada campus on Sept. 19 to show their progress. The event was also an opportunity for Atencio and staff to get supporters ready for the next group of innovators, which will start being culled next summer. “This event is a great way for our innovators to be held

accountable to their investors,” said Samantha Barlow, communications coordinator with Community First. “We’re always thinking, ‘How can we be more relevant?’” All six organizations presented ideas to address the challenges of mental wellness, but their ideas had not yet been tried at the time. Each received an initial grant of $25,000 and nine months to develop ideas. The Pitch Showdown was held at the Lakewood Cultural Center on Sept. 30. There were 250 community members invited, all of whom were given $1,800 each from Community First to donate to the participant of their choice, after hearing a five-minute presentation from each. Community members were advised to not consider risk and instead think of which programs they found the most promising. “It’s really amazing the amount of growth we’ve seen in the past year,” said Justin Kruger, founder of Project Helping.

explained. Which, considering the power of investing in these kinds of groups, it should be a no-brainer. “People say to us, who knew technology could help with mental health?” said Danielle Varda, with CU-Denver’s Patient Centered Network. “We know social connections have an effect on mental health outcomes.”

DACA students rally to renew eligibility, ‘mourn loss of dream’ In wake of program’s end, recipients feel ‘betrayed’ but not surprised

WHAT IS DACA? The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program allows undocumented immigrants to apply for the ability to live and work in the U.S. for renewable periods of two years. It depends upon, in part, if an individual:

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When she was 2 years old, Claudia Hurtado and her sister were taken across the border with people she didn’t know. Separately, her parents crossed from Mexico to Texas, and there, met the people with their children, before coming to Denver to give them “a better future,” said Hurtado, who’s now able to work and and live without fear of deportation because of the Deferred Action For Childhood Arrivals program. DACA started under President Barack Obama in 2012 when the federal government decided to change how it enforces immigration law. When she was 13, Hurtado heard that her father was deported after taking a bus to visit his father’s grave in Mexico. After he crossed the border to El Paso, Texas, immigration officers there detained him. “I remember my mom hiding it from us because we were young,” said Hurtado, now 16 and a Denver Public Schools student. She heard the news first from her sister. For thousands of students in Colorado, eyeing the thin line between legal status and undocumented life is a daily occurrence — children brought to the United States by undocumented parents live with the possibility their family may be torn apart at any time. But after Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced the end of DACA on Sept. 5, more than 15,000 people with active DACA status in Colorado may see that line erased entirely. The federal government stopped accepting new applications Sept. 5, and those whose status expires before March 5 have until Oct. 5 to reapply. For those whose status is set to expire after March 5, the clock is ticking until their protections run out. Acting fast “I was very angry, very frustrated,” said Saira Galindo, a student at Metropolitan State University of Denver.

• Was less than 31 years old as of June 15, 2012. • Came to the U.S. before their 16th birthday. • Has continuously lived in the U.S. since June 15, 2007. • Is currently in school, has graduated or earned completion from high school, earned a GED or is an honorably discharged military veteran. • Has not been convicted of a felony, signiﬁcant or many misdemeanors, and does not pose a threat to national security or public safety.

Democratic U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette stands with Seleste, left, and Vanessa, right, after holding a listening session at Bruce Randolph School in Denver Sept. 20 with DACA students and those with ties to undocumented immigrants. Vanessa and Seleste were born in the U.S., but Seleste’s stepfather was deported this year, and Vanessa’s father is in the deportation process this month. Her brother is able to work under DACA, a program the Trump administration has announced will end in March unless Congress effectively extends it. “I understand laws have to be passed … but stopping DREAMers — (how) does that benefit the country?” Seleste said. ELLIS ARNOLD “We all (had) a lot of questions (and) a lot of confusion because can we reapply, do we send it now, do we not renew?” Galindo, vice president of RISE, a group of undocumented and DACAstatus students and allies at MSU, helped organize a walkout that led high school and college students through Denver to the Auraria Campus the morning of Sept. 5 to protest the potential rescinding of DACA. Students from several DPS high schools participated, said Galindo, a DACA recipient. “Seeing all these young kids, all these schools, speak out was very empowering,” Galindo, 24, said, but “very devastating because people were crying. People were scared ... everyone was feeling literally everything at the

191 Krestview Lane

moment.” But amid the panic, lawyers, law students, campus officials and student activists have banded together at colleges across metro areas to renew DACA protections for eligible recipients. On Sept. 16, pro-bono lawyers and staff from MSU and the University of Colorado Denver ran a workshop on the Auraria Campus that got DACA-renewal applications done for students from those two schools. They paid the $495 renewal fee for the students. Community College of Denver students, high school students and community members got help from the local Mexican consulate in Glendale at the workshop, said Galindo, whose RISE group and CU Dreamers, a similar group at UCD, helped orga-

The term “Dreamers” has been applied to young undocumented immigrants at least in part because of the title of the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act, ﬁrst introduced in 2001 but never passed by both houses of Congress. There are about 689,800 people with active DACA status in the country, with about 15,500 living in Colorado. Source: U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services website nize it. For non-Mexican nationals, the workshop helped them apply for funds through the Mission Asset Fund, a San Francisco-based nonprofit. In all, 33 people got renewals submitted or assitance applying that day. MSU started a fund to help with renewal fees — it covered the fee for seven students there, Saira said — and UCD pulled from the privately funded Student Relief Fund created by University of Colorado regents in April. Five students have had the fee covered by that fund, said Angelica Lopez-Rodriguez, graduate assistant for undocumented student services at UCD. Similar renewal workshops took place Sept. 22 and 23 at Colorado State SEE DACA, P25

Jazzing up the music scene with the glitz and glamour of bygone era

ecently I started playing drums with a band called the Prohibition 6. It’s been around for years and plays jazz from the 1920’s, 30’s and 40’s. We dress like gangsters from back in the day and give our performances kind AVENUE of a “speakeasy” FLASHES feel. It’s a fun band to play with, but what’s even more fun is when we play an event where everyone dresses up in some kind of costume from back in that era. You get to see people getting into the spirit of John Akal things and what sort of costume creation they come up with. It’s kind of funny how something we consider a costume today used to just be the way people dressed years ago. Yes, fashions come and go but there always seems to be a fascination with things from the past when style and glamour ruled the day. Let’s be honest, things have been taking on a more casual and

generic outlook for a few decades now. Clothes and cars seem to just blend in with everything else out there on the market and it’s hard to tell something from this year versus something from ten years ago. But back in the 1920’s and 30’s it was a little different. All you have to do is check out some of those old movies to see where the word “glamour” started to gain popularity. Fashions became more flamboyant, every car on the road had a unique look and you could identify them at a glance. Even literature started reflecting some of those trends while starting a trend of it’s own. Mystery novels and stories gained a lot of popularity and once they started being made into movies, the general public became enthralled in solving the murder, a trend that has continued to this day. We now have entire television networks devoted to true crime stories and how they get solved. But the closest most people who aren’t either in law enforcement or the unfortunate real victims of crime usually get to actually solving a murder mystery is by playing the old board game Clue. It’s a fun game, but not quite as exciting as actually being

They serve a four course dinner, complete with libations that is hosted by actors from Red Herring Productions who in turn stage a murder as you finish your meal. The clues are there, and you break up into groups to try and determine which of the suspicious looking individuals on the premises knocked off one of your fellow dinner guests.

work has been done after school and on weekends. Expected completion date will be sometime next spring. Once finished, some of the features will be a composting toilet, automated window shades controlled by a mobile device and a water efficient shower head. It will be propane-free — completely powered by solar — and not even hooked up to utilities. Timothy Ohno, associate professor of physics and faculty advisor for Mines Tiny House, estimates the value of the home to be about $40,000 or $50,000 once complete. After it’s finished, the tiny home will have a permanent place on campus and used as a classroom and meeting space, as well as an educational and outreach tool in the community, said Emilie Rusch, public information specialist for Mines. There’s been probably between

All majors and classes are represented, Schneider added, but a couple challenges have been that everyone is a fulltime student, and none of them are construction majors. In fact, Mines does not have construction management or architecture programs offered in the curriculum. “It’s been a learn-as-we-go project,” Schneider said. “For the most part, it’s been a bunch of engineers thinking about what would be a good placement for a kitchen.” But, she added, it’s something to be incredibly proud of. “It’s a very unique project,” Schneider said. “It’s something Mines has never done before.” In fact, the Mines Tiny Home will

be on display at the Sustainability Expo part of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Solar Decathlon this year. The Solar Decathlon is a collegiate competition that challenges student teams to design and build full-size, solar-powered houses. The Sustainability Expo is a consumer-facing exposition showcasing energy solutions and services. This is the first year for the event to come to Denver, Ohno said, adding it usually takes place in Washington D.C. or California. “It’s a very exciting event for us, as a state, to host,” he said. For the expo, the desire is to demonstrate the students builidng process, Ohno said. The solar panels and battery will be installed, and some of the framing will be done. “Visitors will be able to get a behindthe-scenes look at the construction process and the decisions that went into maximizing every square inch of space for livability and energy efficiency,” Rusch said. To compete in the Solar Decathlon, it takes at least five faculty advi-

sors, and a typical team is about 150 students, Ohno said. The competition is made up of 10 contests that blends design excellence and smart energy production with innovation, market potential, and energy and water efficiency. “The teams really need two to three years to prepare for it,” he added. But, Ohno added, participating in the expo will build moral. And building the tiny home will help prepare students for the next Solar Decathlon in 2020 — and Mines is planning on competing that year, Ohno said. For many of the students involved with the Mines Tiny Home, it’s become a passion project, Schneider said. “I’ve never been interested in going to energy — I am a physics major pursuing an aerospace career,” she said. But “this just struck my eye as something unique. Everything I’m learning, from working with industry professionals to how to best insulate my home and what windows to buy, will have a huge impact on my life moving forward.”

Michael Alcorn

alcolm Gladwell wrote in his seminal work on the decision-making process “Blink” about a marriage therapist named John Gottman who can, remarkably, predict with 91 percent accuracy a marriage’s chance of ending in a divorce after observing a couple for only five minutes. In his research, Gottman has identified the number one behavioral trigger that predicts marital failure: contempt. When one or both partners display contempt for the other — eye rolls, vicious sarcasm, name-calling — it demonstrates a lack of respect for the other that is fatal to the marriage. I couldn’t help but remember this nugget from Gladwell as I was watching football this weekend. Or, to be more specific, as I was watch-

ing the pre-game antics of the players and our President before the Sunday NFL games. President Trump just doesn’t seem to be able to help himself — he has an almost pathological need to voice his (frequently poorly-thoughtout) opinions on any and every issue, usually through his Twitter feed. The issue of NFL players protesting the National Anthem was almost a dead issue — it really hadn’t been a major deal this year. But, for some reason, the President felt the need to amp the issue back up again last week, taking an issue that had been a marginally good one for him and turning it into a major loser for him by going way over the top (whodathunk?) and calling the players SOB’s. And, of course, in response, the NFL players multiplied their protest on Sunday. In one hilarious episode, teams playing a game in London

Is this what the long suffering American taxpayer will be getting for his (100 percent borrowed) $700 Billion Pentagon budget, to be squandered on useless foreign wars and their toys? Isn’t it time to return our nation’s focus to the wisdom of Pres. George Washington who called for friendship and trade with all nations, but permanent involvement with none? Russ Haas, Golden

knelt for the American National Anthem but stood respectfully for “God Save the Queen;” members of three teams decided to remain in the locker room for the entirety of the National Anthem; and many players — including 25 of our Denver Broncos — knelt or sat during the Anthem. And, to many, there is no doubt that that feels like massive disrespect. Oddly, one member of the Pittsburgh Steelers blew off the rest of his team and stood proudly on the field, with his hand over his heart. Perhaps that’s because he — Alejandro Villanueva — is an Army Ranger who served three tours in Afghanistan and sent brothers home in boxes draped in those flags that others refused to stand for.

I was pushing the safety envelope because night was falling and the roads were Mary McFerren slick from rain. In the Stobie dark, I saw headlights coming down the hill toward me and I hit the brakes on my bike hard. I flew over the handlebars and landed on my shoulder. After wearing a sling for six weeks and much rehab, I took up walking. I didn’t ride my bike much. Actually for this last year I didn’t ride at all. But the other night I decided to ride to Crown Hill Lake. The only thing I took with me was small cross-body purse containing a twenty dollar bill and my cell phone.

The ride started out well. It felt great to be on the bike again. and After crossing Wadsworth, I made it up the long path past the cemetery to Crown Hill Lake. As I rode halfway around the lake I saw a man and a woman carrying fishing poles. “Did you catch anything?” I asked. “We haven’t started yet,” they said. “Good luck.” I rode off around the west end of the lake and suddenly the wind came up. The gusts were strong enough to make me picture myself lifted up into the sky. As I headed east along the lake the wind resistance was intense. I pedaled harder and harder. Just as I had finished circling the lake and was ready to start down the path home, my cell phone rang. I stopped my bike by a bench and reached in my purse and answered my phone. “Do you want me to heat up the casserole?” my husband asked. We talked a moment but the wind was blowing so

How to talk to kids about the complexities of social media ASK A THERAPIST

Q: I feel like my children are growing up in a very different world than the one I grew up in. With social media on their computers and their phones, it’s really hard for me to know who they’re talking to and what they’re talking about. How do I talk to my kids about social media? A: Social media is indeed an area most parents didn’t think much about when they were kids themselves, but today it’s different, and vital that parents monitor their children’s interactions with social media. Fortunately, having a constructive talk with your kids about social media is a lot like talking to your kids about anything else. The goal is to make it seem completely “normal.” Here are two skills from the Motivational Interviewing skillset you can use to have non-confrontational and productive conversations with your kids on this topic: 1. Reflections. A reflection is a good way for you to “bounce back” to your kids words and ideas you’re hearing them talk about. You don’t want to sound like a parrot and repeat their words exactly. Instead, you say back the content of their statements, in your own words. This is a great way to invite your kids to speak about the role of social media in their lives, and feel comfortable doing it. They often talk about their fun with social media, but they also need to feel OK talking about negative things they’ve experienced on social media. Here are some suggestions of what you might say: · “You seem to really enjoy your friends on social media.” · “It looks like social media helps you feel more connected to the world.” · “Sometimes it seems like you’re frustrated with social media.” Reflections normalize the idea of talking about social media in an open way. Kids will often respond by talking about their “social media day”.

2. Open-Ended Questions. You can also use open-ended questions to invite your kids to answer with something other than that one word you’ve heard too often — “yes” or “no.” This is a way you can direct a conversation to a specific social media topic Joel Smith where you (and they) need more information. Again, the key is to invite conversation, rather than to judge kids, or to stifle their willingness to open up. Some great examples of open-ended questions are: · “What are your best friends like on social media?” · “What’s something you’ve seen on social media lately that made you think?” · “Tell me about a time on social media that made you uncomfortable.” · “How does social media help you live in the real world?” These sorts of questions open the door for your kids to talk about and see social media in a more realistic way — its benefits and drawbacks — and to keep the door open for more conversations. When you use these two skills — reflections and open-ended questions — you can really draw out from kids their thoughts and feelings on social media, or any other topic as well. Engaging with kids about social media can also be more complex at times. If you’d like more help or information, or would like to talk to someone about this, or maybe more stressful things in your life, please call Jefferson Center for Mental Health at 303-425-0300.

heck of a fisherman!” It was the same lady who I had spoke to earlier when she was walking with a man, both carrying fishing poles. When I asked if they had caught anything, I now knew she surely did catch one thing. She could have kept the money, or it could have sunk into the lake, blown by the wind. The event enchanted me. I was impressed with her fishing ability, kindness and generosity. I rode home in the rain with my clothes and hair getting wet under my helmet. The temperature was warm enough I didn’t get cold. I felt exhilarated from the ride and the surprise experience with the blowing money and the “lake angel.”

hard I could barely hear him. I slipped my phone back in my purse. I checked inside the purse for the twenty dollar bill found the purse empty. I tried again feeling in all the possible nooks and crannies. Nothing. Now the wind was gusting stronger and it was starting to rain. Was my memory that bad? I was sure I had put the bill in my purse. A woman came directly up from the lake shore holding something. It was a twenty dollar bill. “Did you lose this?” she asked. Surprised, my mouth dropped open. “Yes. It must have blown out of my purse when I took out my phone” . She handed me my very wet twenty. “I fished it out of the lake.” She said. We both laughed. “Thank you, thank you,” I said astonished. “You are an angel. And a

I would hate to hear Mr. Gottman’s conclusions about the future of the American marriage after these “five minutes.” Let’s see: name calling? check. Sneering? check. Hostile humor? check. Vicious sarcasm? check. And if you’re wondering why the last two got checks, you obviously didn’t watch any late night television last week. To quote Josh Lyman of “The West Wing”: “there may not be anything anymore that outpaces the hatred the right feels for the left of the tonnage of disrespect the left feels for the right.” Fifteen years after that line was written, it hasn’t gotten any better. Yes, the Right holds the Left in contempt — the effete, latte-sipping, coastal elites who want nothing more than to take your hard work, your creativity, and your success and use the

fruits of them to pay for free everything but your protection, as long as it is sanctioned by the United Nations. And yes, the Left holds the Right (and most of American history) in contempt — the misogynistic, guntoting Bible-thumping Neanderthals who want your children to die from a head cold and want to throw Grandma off a cliff. And yes, nearly everybody and Donald Trump hold each other in mutual contempt. I’ve written before that I thought this country was headed for a divorce, but I’ve never seen it blow up in such a dramatic fashion.

‘When it comes to injuries, listen to your body’

West Metro Fire Rescue’s EMTs and paramedics familiarize themselves with the latest equipment and gear football players use during an Aug. 18 training session. The fire department worked with emergency room doctors from St. Anthony Hospital to help prepare for responding to injuries commonly seen during football season. CHRISTY STEADMAN

Experts share sports injury prevention advice BY CHRISTY STEADMAN CSTEADMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

efore entering her career, Julie Nickoley’s studies at Metro State required her to get clinical hours at different colleges and high schools across Colorado, where she worked with a professional to get on-thejob training. During these clinical hours, she diagnosed the first of three broken necks she has seen throughout her career as an athletic trainer. The college football player was hit hard in the first quarter of the game, she said, but didn’t tell anyone about his neck pain. Then, he got hit again in the fourth quarter and finally pulled himself out of the game. “He basically played the entire game with a broken neck,” said Nickoley, who is now the head athletic trainer for the Colorado Storm, a statewide youth soccer association.

5 TIPS TO AVOID SPORTS INJURIES • Get the gear. For any sport, the proper gear and protective equipment can protect athletes from injuries. • Condition and stretch. Make sure your entire body is conditioned — not just the muscles being used in the particular sport or training.

• Take a break. Even if it’s only one day a

This particular athlete — Nickoley wouldn’t identify him by name or which college he played for — was very lucky, she added. He wasn’t paralyzed and the spinal cord wasn’t damaged. From bruises to broken bones, even the most experienced athletes are prone to injury. But there is some preventative advice out there. First and foremost, it’s important to take care of your body, Nickoley said. “The biggest thing I see with successful athletes is how they take care of their bodies,” she said. But “you don’t have to be a competitive athlete or have a background in

sports to take care of your body.” Nutrition and exercise are important for everyone’s health, Nickoley said. Whether it be taking a walk in your neighborhood or going to the local rec center for a swim, everyone should get their heart rate up for at least 30 minutes a day. Active people have lower rates of obesity, heart disease, diabetes and even some emotional problems such as depression and anxiety, said Heidi Christensen, medical director of Primary Care Sports Medicine for Centura Health. And for younger people, playing sports can help with self-esteem and socialization.

• Play safe. Avoid reckless play and follow the rules when playing sports.

“Injuries can happen, but being active and playing sports outweigh the risks,” Christensen said. “As long as you don’t play or exercise beyond your personal capabilities, you can help safeguard against injuries.” When injuries happen West Metro Fire Rescue’s EMTs and paramedics started a threeweek training session on Aug. 18, during which about 280 people worked with emergency room doctors from St. Anthony Hospital to help prepare for responding to injuries commonly seen during football season. The training focused on new procedures in preparing injured players for the emergency room and/or potential surgeries, and familiarizing themselves with the latest equipment and gear football players use. “We’re finding that as the equipment changes, so must our practice,” said Mike Binney, the fire department’s EMS training lieutenant. “In the metro area, we want to SEE INJURIES, P17

Siegel celebrates 30 years of keyboard conversations at Arvada Center

including the Berlin Philharmonic, London Symphony, New York Philharmonic, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Moscow State Symphony, Munich’s Bayerischer Rundfunk, and the Amsterdam, Oslo and Stockholm Philharmonic. Siegel kicks off his 30th season at the center on Oct. 4 with a focus on Leonard Bernstein, and will be hosting programs on music inspired by the night, storytelling through music, and the repertoire of masters like Beethoven, Liszt and Prokofiev during the season. But it’s not only about the performances for Siegel. It’s about the whole picture. He answers audiences’ questions, gives history and context to composers, pieces and musical eras, and shares stories. Think of it as a one-off music education class. I know I always find more in a piece of music, classical or otherwise, if I know what the musician intended, or was experiencing at the time. “Sometimes people have very specific questions, but often they’re happily general,” Siegel said. “So many would like the opportunity to ask a question of the performer on stage, but that opportunity never happens.”

t seems like everybody took a piano lesson or two in their lives. I did for years, learning how to play some of my favorite Vince Guaraldi “Peanuts” songs, as LINER well as the piano NOTES versions of some of my favorite pop songs at the time — stuff like the Dave Matthews Band. As with everything, it all comes down to having a great teacher. I certainly did. And for the past Clarke Reader 30 years, Jeffrey Siegel has served as a proxy piano teacher to hundreds who came to his Keyboard Conversations at the Arvada Center. But instead of teaching how to play, he gives audiences a window into classical music and composers. “Thirty years is a milestone in this disposable society,” Siegel said with a laugh. “They haven’t disposed of me yet.” An internationally known pianist, Siegel has been a soloist with many of the world’s top orchestras,

be prepared for whatever we have to show up to.” It might not always require a trip to the emergency room, Christensen said, it is always important to get a proper diagnosis from somebody who is professionally trained to do so that that treatment or rehab can start right away. But “it’s not just about treating the injury to get the clear to return to the sport,” Christensen added. “It’s getting the proper tools to prevent a recurring injury.” Too many people get right back into the sport as soon as the pain goes away, but this puts that per-

son at a higher risk of reinjuring themselves, Christensen said. People tend to sustain serious injuries because they pushed themselves above and beyond what they were conditioned for, Christensen said. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, just becoming more active or beginning to train for a new sport, “it’s always a good rule of thumb to increase the level of activity gradually,” Christensen said. But because athletes typically love their sport, they will often push the limits, Nickoley said. “They love what they’re doing. They’ll do whatever they can to keep playing,” she said. “And the body can handle a lot. But especially when it comes to injuries, listen to your body.”

Classical music can be particularly intimidating for the uninitiated, which is why this guided approach is so effective for Siegel. And it has led to some of his favorite memories at the Center, like when students, who normally wouldn’t be the interested in classical, came backstage to share how much the music moved them. “I was so touched the music brought them backstage,” Siegel remembers. “Classical music can be like water on the desert. Even if a person isn’t a sophisticated concert goer, the music still gets through to them.” The interaction with his audience is what has kept Siegel coming back for three decades, as is knowing he’s giving people an entry-point to a genre that is all about humanity. And in an age of digitalization when everyone has their eyes on a screen, that matters. “We’re living today in the most robotic society ever. For a thinking, feeling person, there’s a greater need for something that really touches one, moves one, that cannot be gotten off a screen,” he said. “It’s about, as Bernstein called it, the ‘transformative power of music.’ It’s more necessary than ever before.”

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK Selection: Hiss Golden Messenger’s “Hallelujah Anyhow,” released on Merge Records. Review: Sometimes when a musician is too prolific, I worry that it’s a sign they’re running out of good ideas, and just releasing anything they can. That’s not the case with Hiss Golden Messenger, whose latest effort comes out just a year after 2016’s fantastic “Heart Like a Levee.” “Hallelujah Anyhow” is leaner than that album, but it’s also more focused, catchier and wryer. I can’t get enough of the group, and can’t wait to see if he pulls a threepeat next year. Favorite song: “Jenny of the Roses” Best song with “domino” in the title since Van Morrison: “ Domino (Time Will Tell) “ Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week. A community editor with Colorado Community Media, he would totally sign on for a Keyboard Conversation on Vince Guaraldi. Check out his music blog at calmacil20.blogspot. com.

Study identifies fastest-growing trees in area STAFF REPORT

Cottonwood, catalpa, silver maple, blue spruce and white oak are the fastest-growing tree varietals for Colorado’s Front Range communities, while hawthorn, piñon pine and hackberry are some of the slowest growers, according to a report by the Colorado State Forest Service. White ash varietals, including the highly popular autumn purple common to Front Range neighborhoods, also are fast-growing but are no longer recommended for Colorado because of the threat of being killed by the non-native pest emerald ash borer. The report characterized the longterm growth of 19 common urban tree species grown on publicly maintained land in Westminster over 24 years, as tracked by the forest service and City of Westminster. However, tree growth rates should not be the only factor to consider when buying trees at a local nursery. “Factors like insect and disease susceptibility, hardiness in our harsh climate and soils, and shorter lifespan in some faster-growing spe-

cies should also be considered when selecting the right tree,” said Keith Wood, community forestry program manager and lead author of the study. He warns that some fast-growing shade trees, including cottonwoods and silver maples, are prone to branch breakage in the state’s late spring and early fall snows, while slower growers like hackberry and honeylocust thrive in this area. Another consideration when selecting trees should be diversity within a community, to make the urban forest more resilient to future insect and disease threats, Wood said. The Front Range Tree Recommendation List, offered by the Colorado Tree Coalition, includes descriptions of trees suitable for the area and drawbacks to consider. The list, along with an ash tree replacement selection tool and species diversity calculator, is available at www.coloradotrees.org. The full growth-rate study results are available at http://csfs.colostate. edu/csfs/media/sites/22/2017/08/ FINAL-Growth-Rate-Study2016-02Aug2017.pdf.

‘God is our healer, he heals us’ Faith-based recovery programs tackle substance abuse in metro area BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

David Seller never felt like he fit in with his peers. When he moved to Lakewood from Australia at 7 years old, his classmates made fun of his accent. In high school, his longtime girlfriend suddenly severed their relationship. In college, he went from having a group of friends to having none. His coping mechanism for life’s problems was alcohol. Then, it was methamphetamine. After run-ins with the law and a suicide attempt, Sellar hit rock bottom. So his mom called Teen Challenge — now called 180 Ministries — a faith-based rehab facility for men on South Broadway in Denver. “In everything we do, there is an undercurrent of Jesus,” said Sellar, now 36 and five years sober. “Ultimately, Jesus will change your heart and life.” There is no shortage of faith-based recovery programs in the metro Denver area. Like secular recovery programs, they cater to a nationwide problem that is just as prevalent in Colorado — addiction to drugs or alcohol. Heroinrelated deaths in Colorado doubled between 2011 and 2015, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment reports. In 2013-14, 7.5 percent of individuals 12 and older in Colorado experienced alcohol dependence or abuse, which is higher than the national rate of 6.5 percent, according to a 2015 study by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. Research shows that spirituality can help the recovery process. In a study, called “Physicians’ beliefs about faith-based treatments for alcoholism,” published in the U.S. National Library of Medicine, more than 70 percent of a sample of 896 psychiatrists and primary care physicians were likely to consider referring a patient with alcohol addiction to a faith-based program. More than 80 percent believed that an emphasis on spirituality is critical to the success of a 12-step program, such as Alcoholics Anonymous. The right steps At faith-based programs, religion leads recovery. “God is our healer, he heals us,” said Mary Brewer, founder of Mary’s Hope Sober Homes, which has 15 houses across the Denver metro area, and New Beginnings Recovery Center, an inpatient facility in Littleton. “Once you have that faith planted in your heart, it is god that does the work.” Brewer’s programs accept all walks of life, regardless of religious beliefs. Modern technology is combined with a Christ-based foundation. New Beginnings clients are evaluated using an EEG machine that examines neurotransmitters in the brain to determine if there is a chemical imbalance. Therapy is a combination of group

SUBSTANCE ABUSE IN THE U.S.: BY THE NUMBERS 20.1 million — People ages 12 or older who had a substance abuse disorder in the past year. 15.1 million — People ages 12 or older who had an alcohol use disorder in the past year. 7.4 million — People ages 12 or older who had an illicit drug use disorder in the past year. 21 million — People ages 12 or older who and individual counseling, along with a focus on exercise, music, arts and nutrition. There is a church service on Sunday mornings. K-Love, a Christian radio station, plays on the speaker in the waiting room. The model seems to work: New Beginnings’ success rate is 70 percent and Mary’s Hope Sober Homes is 87 percent, Brewer said. A real estate agent by trade, Brewer said opening her recovery programs 14 years ago was God’s plan. She turned one of her properties into a sober-living home after learning that her employee was struggling with addiction. “God had different desires and plans for my life than what I was doing,” Brewer said. Sellar had similar feelings about God’s presence in his life. He didn’t grow up a Christian. He describes his experience at 180 Ministries as a “beautiful mess.” He wanted to leave on the fifth day and cried everyday for the first four months. But through a rigorous year of work projects, chapel and biblically oriented classes, Sellar said he relearned how to live. “It’s a beautiful mix of discipline and love that goes on there,” said Sellar, who is now studying to become a counselor. “People get refined through

Source: Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s 2016 National Survey on Drug Use and Health the fire.” 180 Ministries works with several churches in the area, including Journey Church in Castle Rock, 9009 Clydesdale Road, which is hosting a fundraiser event at 7 p.m. Oct. 21 to raise money for the program. Tickets can be purchased at 180ministries.net/ spark. Right now, the facility can house up to 18 men. Director and pastor Scott Stutzman wants to see that number double and the addition of sober living homes for six to eight men. The success rate of the program is 87 percent, he said. “They come in with nothing,” Stutzman said. “They hit rock bottom and are serious about getting their life turned around.” Finding an identity For some, a faith-based recovery program is the only option left. Aaron Dennis joined Step Seven, a recovery community for men based in Parker, after failed attempts with a different program. On the verge of losing everything prior to the program, Dennis hit his 30-day sober mark for the first time in 15 years on Sept. 14. He is in a 90-day program at one of Step Seven’s sober-living homes. He attends weekly group meetings and a Sabbath service on Saturdays.

QUICK FACTS • Drug addiction is a chronic disease characterized by drug seeking and use that is compulsive or difficult to control, despite harmful consequences. • Genetic, environmental and developmental factors influence risk for addiction. • Addiction is treatable. • People who are recovering from an addiction will be at risk for relapse for years. • Abuse of tobacco, alcohol and illicit drugs costs the U.S. more than $740 billion in crime, lost work productivity and health care. Source: National Institute on Drug Abuse The leadership of the program is what made him want to stay, he said. “I felt safe,” said Dennis, a Parker resident, “and I saw sincerity.” Step Steven leaders have dealt with their own addictions. Executive director Thom Straley used substances for 10 years. He needed a place to stay after a stint in jail, so he moved into a Step Seven home in 2011. The choice allowed him to repair his marriage and start working. “It’s a recovery support group with a whole lot of Bible,” Straley said. “The 90-day process instills character in men who have a hard time finding their identity.” Though each faith-based program is different, many people involved share a similar outlook: Faith is what brings clients and faith is what allows them to heal. “No matter how stupid we were,” Sellar said, “God somehow worked to bring better things into our lives.”

Lincoln lives on in Littleton man Retired aerospace engineer portrays life of nation’s 16th president BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

John Voehl lives something of a double life. A retired Lockheed aerospace engineer from Littleton, he’s a devoted husband and grandfather. But to thousands of people across the country, he’s Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president. Voehl is one of dozens of “Lincoln presenters,” dedicated, bearded historical enthusiasts who recreate the life and times of the Great Emancipator. “People tell me they felt like they were really with Lincoln,” said Voehl from Kauai, Hawaii, where he was gearing up to present his 1,199th presentation as part of a lengthy tour that will see him don the stovepipe hat in California, Wyoming and around Colorado in coming months. Voehl, 65, presents to schools, historical societies, retirement homes and other groups. He’s spoken in 42 states. “The kids are just mesmerized,” said Katie Howell, a fifth-grade

Voehl has been presenting at Academy for a decade, as the annual culmination of the fifth-graders’ study of the Civil War. “Every year, his presentation is different,” Howell said. “He’s got so much information. Even I’m fascinated by it.” Voehl’s presentations are made all the more enjoyable by his personality, said Yvonne Ludwig, master of the Pleasant Park Grange in Conifer, where Voehl has performed several times. “Aside from being Abe Lincoln, he’s just a lovely and friendly individual,” Ludwig said. Voehl’s first jaunt as Lincoln was

at a Boy Scout camp in 1996, after a friend asked him to do a silly skit based on Lincoln’s character in the 1989 movie “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure.” Though Lincoln never actually said “Party on, dudes,” Voehl said the experience impacted him — especially once he realized how strongly he resembles Lincoln. “I also discovered the rock star awe Lincoln has with a lot of people,” Voehl said. “People are inspired by the things he did, and the magic of his true life story. Born in a log cabin with a dirt floor, he became not only a president, but the one at the moment of our greatest national crisis: the Civil War. He not only got us through it, but made the country different than it was before — for the better.” From an original half-hour presentation, Voehl has developed dozens of Lincoln presentations, covering topics like the president’s biography, policies, lifestyle and achievements. Donning an impeccable costume, Voehl’s presentations often start with the president seated and preparing to sign the Emancipation Proclamation, which ended slavery in the South. “I talk about what day of the week it is, how I’m preparing to go to a Cabinet meeting to present the document, and what’s going on in Lincoln’s life,” he said. “I have authentic-looking reproductions of historical documents. People get so into it they think it’s real.” Voehl’s wife Pamela increasingly accompanies John in presentations as Mary Todd Lincoln, the president’s wife. She also does solo presentations. She was unavailable

to speak for this story. Lincoln is often viewed as a titanic or iconic figure, Voehl said, so it’s been humbling to get to know Lincoln the man. “My expectation was that like most historical figures, is that if you dig down you find the dirt,” he said. “You’ll find out he kicked his dog or was unfaithful or often inebriated. You can say ‘yeah but.’ “But the closer you get to Lincoln, the better he is.” Still, Lincoln was not without troubles. He was depressed, sometimes to the point of being suicidal, Voehl said. “He called it his `melancholy,’ ” Voehl said. “There were times his friends would sequester him and took sharp objects away from him.” How Lincoln would respond to current affairs or politics is tough to answer, Voehl said. “I’m often asked what Lincoln would think of Black Lives Matter or Barack Obama or Confederate statues,” Voehl said. “I’ve found it’s hard to say what he would have thought without injecting myself and my own beliefs.” What would Lincoln think of President Trump? “I think Lincoln would hope that the personality of the man does not rule the office, as much as the severity and importance of the office should rule the man,” Voehl said. “Trump’s not the first person in that category, though. Teddy Roosevelt and Andrew Jackson were also men of huge personalities.” The life of Abraham Lincoln has many lessons to impart on us today, Voehl said. “He teaches us perseverance,” Voehl said. “To never give up on anything. He operated at a high level while feeling miserable.” Lincoln also teaches us to stay the course and maintain civility when our cause is just, Voehl said. “As Commander in Chief, he believed that the idea that all men are created equal had to survive,” Voehl said. “When faced with opponents who are abusive and demeaning, Lincoln never castigated his opponents. He expended his strength to use his words to get people to look at things from his perspective.” Voehl is nine years older than Lincoln was when he was killed. But Lincoln will live on, Voehl said, living not only through the people who portray him, but through his words, as in the closing lines of the Gettysburg Address, “that government of the people by the people for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”

Dancers happy to be there and be square Square dancing club keeps dance alive and keeps it lively BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Ask a group of square dancers what impact their passion has had on their lives, and you’ll get one answer over and over: “I met my spouse square dancing.” It’s not hard to see why — how many opportunities does one get to laugh and twirl with dozens of other people for an evening? Square dancing, a folk dance that has taken on innumerable variations since its origins in 16th-century Europe, lives on in the footloose and lighthearted members of the Mountaineers, a Littleton-based square dancing club, one of about a dozen such clubs in the Denver metro area. The Mountaineers held an intro to square dancing class in Lakewood last week to drum up interest in their upcoming beginners’ classes. In a traditional square dance, four couples face each other in a square, and perform synchronized movements to the instructions of a “caller.” The effect is a mesmerizing spectacle of coordination that looks simultaneously complex and effortless. In practice, square dancing takes a sharp mind, a keen ear, and a fleet foot. “You don’t know what they’ll call next,” said Janet Boys, who’s been square dancing for decades. “You have to pay attention. You’re experiencing music is on a whole different level in your brain.” A sense of humor doesn’t hurt. “We don’t always get it right,” said Jan Hormuth. “You’ll see people going every which way. But we just laugh it off and keep going.” The Mountaineers boasts a member-

First-timers pair with old-timers at the Mountaineers square dancing club’s introductory night. ship of about 70, and can be seen performing at various local events. They’re often a star attraction at Greg Reinke’s annual Turkey Leg & Wine Hoedown in Downtown Littleton. The most fun way to learn is by doing, said Bill Heiny, who’s been calling dances for 17 years, though he said there are any number of books and YouTube tutorials to provide an intro to the shy. Calling, however, is a skill that can only be passed down, he said. “You have to apprentice,” Heiny said. “I started singing along to the callers in my club, and one took me under his wing and mentored me.” Heiny said calling clicks in his brain, because as a retired computer programmer, “it’s all about patterns.” “This is like puzzle solving,” he said. “I’m moving people, keeping my eye on them, and thinking about where I’m putting them.”

Square dancing has a Colorado connection: From its origins in medieval Europe, square dancing took on new popularity in colonial America, and over time, dozens of local iterations — with unique and untranslatable calls — formed in regions around the country. By the early decades of the 20th century, though, the dance was dying out. Enter Lloyd “Pappy” Shaw, a Colorado Springs high school teacher, who roamed the country in the 1930s, learning the variety of styles and consolidating them into a standardized form. Shaw spent decades teaching his new style, and trained a new generation of dancers and callers credited with leading a postwar revival of the dance. For dancers, though, square dancing isn’t so much about preserving a legacy as it is about blowing off steam. “It completely takes you away from your work,” said Jim Taylor, a Moun-

A 22 percent increase in median home values pushed Golden to the top spot as the best city in Colorado to raise a family, according to a study conducted by SmartAsset, a company that provides software and data to provide simple, easy-to-understand answers to complex financial questions. Golden also boasts the second-lowest unemployment rate in the study and the sixth lowest property crime rate. Arvada, one of the most populous cities in Colordo, also rated in the top 10, placing sixth. Among Arvada’s strengths are its high graduate rate

(82 percent) and its relatively low property costs and violent crime rates. The number of children in the city, high school graduate rates, average home costs, crime rates, percent change in home values, median household income, percentage of families living in poverty and average cost of child care were among the criteria examined.

Sky-high rents squeeze long-time residents Housing prices put the hurt on workforce

WHAT’S IT COST? Median rent for a one-bedroom apartment in September for area cities in which the number was available at ApartmentList.com:

BY DAVID GILBERT DGILBERT@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Mary Ann Parker can’t talk about her apartment search without crying. The 58-year-old on disability rents a room in a house in Commerce City for $750 a month, which eats up most of her $840 a month disability check. She longs to live closer to her daughter and her newborn grandchild in Castle Rock, but after months of searching, she’s discouraged. “I can’t even afford to put in application fees,” Parker said. “I can’t part with $50 for every place, just to be turned down over and over. And first and last month’s rent and a security deposit after that? It’s just impossible.” Parker has moved several times over the last few years, chasing cheap rents that keep creeping up. She narrowly missed a slot in a south metro housing authority when a change-of-address form didn’t go through, and she missed the notification. She’s been trying to apply to other housing authority boards around the metro area, but most aren’t accepting new applicants because the waiting lists are already years long. Things are tense with the other boarders in the house, and one of her few sources of comfort is Butterfly, her certified therapy dog Papillon, who eases the symptoms of Parker’s PTSD, depression and anxiety. “She keeps me from getting so lonely,” Parker said. Parker’s story is emblematic of the challenges faced by renters across the metro area, where rents climbed 52 percent between 2005 and 2015, according to Apartment List, a rental listing site that also researches industry trends. An influx of people lured by a healthy job market have strained the

DAVID GILBERT capacity of the construction industry and pushed people like Parker to the margins. “It’s basically two camps: The first is those that have moved here from somewhere else, many times with a job, many times from a more expensive market,” said Ron Throupe, the author of the quarterly Denver Metro Apartment Vacancy and Rent report and a professor at the University of Denver. “For them, the prices are not much of a burden. “But those that have been here a long time, they’re living on the economy they grew from, and they’re on different footing than those inmigrating. They’re the ones feeling the pressures.” ‘People won’t want to stay’ The median rent in the Denver metro area was $1,377 in the second quarter, according to Throupe’s report, and builders can’t cut the ribbon on new apartments fast enough.

came online last year, and 10,000 more opened in the first half of 2017. Vacancy rates remain low, around 5 percent. Colorado’s population continues to grow by roughly 10,000 people a month, with the overwhelming majority settling along the Front Range. Skyrocketing housing prices have many young people looking elsewhere to start a family, said Sydney Bennet, a researcher with Apartment List. A recent study by the company found that two-thirds of Denver renters want to settle down somewhere else. “If these cost trends continue, people won’t want to stay,” Bennet said. “People from San Jose, San Francisco or New York move here because it’s comparatively more affordable. But for people who have lived here for 20 or 30 years, it’s unprecedented. You have a lot of strain on lower- and middle-income families who have never had to spend so much toward housing.” Bennet said eventually the trends are likely to flatten out some, with in-migration slowing and apartment construction catching up, but prices aren’t likely to come down. That’s because the vast majority of new rental stock is high-end, Throupe said, with few builders bothering with workforce housing. That leaves low-income earners with little wiggle room, and even exerts upward pressure on the rents on mid-range apartments. A shortage of starter homes has meant many people can’t make the jump from renting to owning, Throupe said, after the recession knocked many custom home builders out of business and with tract home builders only now back in full swing. What’s the solution? One barrier to making the jump has been unintended consequences of Colorado’s decade-old construction defects law, which allowed as few as two owners in a condominium development to file class-action lawsuits against developers and builders for defective units for years after they were completed, said Republican state Sen. Jack Tate, who represents District 27, covering a swath of the southeast

metro area, including Centennial and parts of Aurora. Tate said the law meant that nearly all condo builders in the state were mired in excessive litigation, and made builders gun-shy about building more condos when apartments were much lower risk. Condos are generally considered a starting point for new homeowners because of their lower cost than single-family homes. Tate said the law meant that condos went from 20 percent of the metro area’s new housing stock in 2005 to only 2 percent today. Tate cosponsored a bipartisan reform bill aimed at reducing the law’s impact by upping the class-action requirement to a majority of a condo development’s residents, and narrowing the timeframe to a 90-day election period. The law, signed by Gov. John Hickenlooper in May, took effect in early September. Tate said it’s too soon to know if the law will spur condo development, but he hears optimism among builders. “Homeownership is important,” Tate said “We should not underestimate how critical condominiums are as an entry point for young people and a place for older folks to downsize.” More action on the part of governments may be necessary, said Brad Evans, a former real estate agent turned consultant and self-proclaimed “professional agitator” for smart growth. Evans, who lives in Lakewood, said some cities are turning toward growth restrictions that only send rents and housing prices even higher. He’s fighting a proposal in Lakewood that he said will turn it into “the next Boulder.” “Growth restrictions will murder people,” Evans said. “Tax rates will skyrocket. Granny in her 1960s ranch will be on the hook for a lot more in taxes.” Evans said that both restricting and encouraging sprawl have their drawbacks. “We need intergovernmental agreements on developing workforce housing,” Evans said. “We need a healthy mix of condos, townhomes, single family and for-rent product. We can’t be afraid of change. Instead of battling, how do we collaborate?”

DACA

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING • My sister and I “feel betrayed by” the decision, said Saira Galindo, a DACA recipient. “We give so much to the community, we volunteer, we pay our taxes ... And we’re being treated like this. We’re mourning our dream ... even if I get my degree, I can’t work.”

University Fort Collins, Sept. 23 at the University of Denver and Sept. 27 at the University of Colorado Boulder, and will take place Sept. 29 at the University of Northern Colorado Greeley. Under pressure At Arapahoe Community College in Littleton, some undocumented students dropped classes after DACA’s rescinding, officials said. “I’ve been working in higher (education) for 20 years, and this feeling that `whoa, this might affect my ability to finish my education’ ... I’ve never (previously) felt that,” said Jeff Duggan, coordinator for communications at the college. ACC doesn’t track its number of DACA students, said Lisa Matye Edwards, vice president of student affairs, but through anecdotal conversations, school officials have noticed. She guessed ACC has about 30 students affected by DACA policy, and the school identified a pool of donated money it can use to help students pay their renewal fee. The school put out a message to staff and students Sept. 5 and is connecting students to immigration attorneys, Matye Edwards said. Mental health counselors, and ACC staff who were once non-citizens, can speak to students about their anxiety, she said. On Sept. 13, the State Board for Community Colleges and Occupational Education, which oversees 13 colleges in the state including ACC, adopted a resolution to support congressional action to preserve DACA protections. Looking ahead With less than six months until recipients who do not have the chance to reapply for DACA begin to see their status expire, Congress will be under pressure to decide the fate of young immigrants. U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter, D-Golden,

• “My daughter, she cried and cried,” said Maria, 56, a mother with two DACA-status children, one of whom attends Aurora Community College. She “doesn’t know Mexico. She doesn’t know what she’s gonna do there.”

• Westminster supports “DACA until a longer-term solution ... can be passed ... DACA recipients contribute (hundreds of millions of dollars) to Colorado’s annual gross domestic product (GDP) ... Such ﬁgures don’t factor in the social and cultural contributions,” said Mayor Herb Atchison. Westminster “wants to say, ‘You are welcome here.’ ” A sign for a clinic held by volunteer students, professors and outside lawyers at the University of Denver Sept. 23 to help DACA recipients at DU and beyond apply for a two-year renewal of their status. Dozens of people came for services in the ﬁrst few hours, many of whom were not DU students. Photos of DACA reapplicants, at request of the organizers, were not taken to protect their privacy. PHOTOS BY ELLIS ARNOLD supports the DREAM Act of 2017, which would give undocumented immigrants who entered the U.S. before age 18 a path to citizenship through work, military service or attending college. He also supports the American Hope Act, which is similar but would not be based on those criteria. He supported DACA when it was enacted in 2012. “I was pleased to see Gov. Hickenlooper add Colorado’s name to a lawsuit challenging (President Trump’s) decision to end the DACA program,” Perlmutter said. Republican U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner tweeted a statement Sept. 5 saying he’s proud to cosponsor the DREAM Act. “Children who came to this country ... through no fault of their own must have the opportunity to remain here lawfully,” Gardner’s statement said. A spokesperson for Democratic

A form that must be filled out for DACA recipients to reapply for their status. It sat on one of the rooms on the University of Denver campus Sept. 23 where lawyers volunteered to assist DACA recipients with the process. The renewal fee is $495, and DU made some funds available to assist students with that fee.

U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet said Bennet supports the DREAM Act and has supported DACA. Bennet “believes Dreamers should feel empowered to continue contributing to our society — not scared of being deported from the only country they know as home,” the spokesperson said. U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, R-Aurora, said that in January he introduced the BRIDGE Act, which would be a “backup” plan to give undocumented immigrants legal presence and ability to work — under similar criteria to DACA — for three years. “What I hope is a more permanent solution (can pass),” said Coffman, who supports a proposal to combine elements of the DREAM Act with added border security, but not a wall, along with Rep. Jared Polis, D-Boulder. They put it together in mid-September along with a small bipartisan group in Congress and

• “As a country, we have not punished children for the wrongful acts of their parents. Why are we starting now?” said Laura Christman, mayor of Cherry Hills Village.

planned to introduce it into debate soon, Coffman said. Trump has told Congressional Democrats he would accept some kind of DACA fix in exchange for added border security measures and that the wall would not be a part of the discussions, Politico reported Sept. 14. Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan supports that kind of pairing of policies. “Trump’s announcement probably gives momentum to the effort to pass (comprehensive immigration reform),” Rep. Diana DeGette, D-Denver, said. In the meantime, students like Claudia Hurtado will be waiting. Her family fought her father’s deportation case, and he was allowed to stay, partly because of his five children. She wants to attend CU Boulder and become a lawyer. She plans to help people with immigration cases.

Castiglia was this OVERTIME season’s Jefferson County League 5A medalist with a stroke average of 70, but he is the first to admit the two-day state tournament is different from regular season tourneys and the regional qualifying. Jim Benton In the previous three state tournaments, Castiglia’s resume shows a tie for 37th place as a freshman then ties for 28th and 35th the next two years. The Class 5A state tournament is scheduled for Oct. 2-3 at Common Ground Golf Course in Aurora. “You can definitely feel a more competitive vibe,” said Castiglia. “Everyone is there because they deserve to be there after doing good in their regionals. Everyone is there to try to defend their school and play as well as possible. It’s also run more professionally and it brings out the best golf in everybody.” Castiglia was second in the 5A Western regional with an even-par 72 at the Broadlands Golf Course on Sept. 18 and the University of Northern Colorado commit is ready to show his ability in the biggest high school tourney of the season. “I have something to prove,” he said. “I definitely haven’t proved anything in the past three state tournaments. My freshman year I was young and actually didn’t play that bad. But my sophomore and junior years I didn’t play like I did during the season and didn’t show what I can do. “I played good this year. I made a grip change after last year’s state and I’ve been working with it. I have to prove that I got used to it and I have to play as well as possible.” There will be attention on several area golfers and teams that also have something to prove. Frozen Four moves to Pepsi Center Semifinal games and the 2018 state boys hockey final will be held at the Pepsi Center. The Colorado Avalanche will host the semifinal games at 5:30 and 7 p.m. on March 1 and the championship game on March 6, with the time to be determined.

Golden softball gets historic win over rival Wheat Ridge Golden freshman Shayne Abrams touches home plate as Wheat Ridge catcher Kate Anderson turns to try to make a tag during the Class 4A Jeffco League game Sept. 23 at Pennington Field in Wheat Ridge.

BY DENNIS PLEUSS JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

WHEAT RIDGE — There is a possibility most of Golden’s softball players weren’t even born the last time the Demons defeated rival Wheat Ridge on the softball field. “I honestly have no idea when Golden last beat Wheat Ridge, no idea,” Golden softball coach Chad Hebers said after the Demons defeated the Farmers 13-3 in five innings Saturday, Sept. 23, on Wheat Ridge’s home field. “It was long before I was here.” Hebers in is in sixth year with the Demons program. The MaxPreps.com softball archive of scores only dates back to 2009. Over the previous eight meetings, Wheat Ridge had outscored Golden 97-4. The Demons had strong teams in the early 2000s, including a trip to the Class 5A state semifinals. That is likely the last time Golden defeated Wheat Ridge. The Farmers have won six state titles — two in 5A and four in 4A — since 2002. “After a win like this — Wheat Ridge has some history behind them — now there is something to talk about,”

DENNIS PLEUSS/JEFFCO PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Hebers said of his squad that improved to 11-3 on the season. “When we show up, we’re good. I love our chances.” Golden (1-1 in 4A Jeffco) dropped its conference opener to three-time defending 4A state champion Valor Christian 4-1 on Sept. 19. However, the Demons bats didn’t waste anytime getting going Saturday morning. Sophomore Makenzie Middleton belted a 3-run home run

in the top of the first inning to get things going. She added a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to extend Golden’s lead to 6-0. “When I go up to hit I don’t really try,” Makenzie said of thinking about hitting home runs when she steps up to the plate. “I just try to hit it. Sometimes it goes over and sometimes it doesn’t. Today I got lucky.” Makenzie might be more

good than lucky. She has nine home runs on the season while driving in 21 runs through the Demons’ first 14 games. Not to be outdone, Makenzie’s twin sister Makayla put an exclamation point on the victory. Golden’s leadoff batter had already scored twice with a single and double. Makayla ripped a grand slam in the top of the fifth inning to widen the Demons’ lead to 13-2. “I was just hoping to get a base hit to score a couple of runs,” Middleton said of her at-bat with the bases loaded. “I didn’t want to pop it up or hit it right at a player. The pitch was right there.” Golden’s Wonder Twins combined to go 5-for-8 from the plate with 3 home runs, 9 RBIs and scored five runs. While Makayla said the identical twins don’t have a catchy nickname, that might be coming soon for the dynamic duo. The Middleton twins weren’t the lone Demons who got the bats going against the three different pitchers Wheat Ridge threw against Golden. Senior Madison Campbell was 2-for-4 with a pair of RBIs, senior Megan Feiner was 2-for-3 from the plate and junior Cassidy Paulson had a trio of singles.

Paulson also picked up the complete-game victory on the mound scattering five Farmer hits. “They played very unselfish today,” Hebers said. Wheat Ridge junior Julia Shipley and senior Kate Anderson both drove in a run for the Farmers (7-9, 1-2). Wheat Ridge got on the board with a 2-run bottom of the fourth inning, but Golden responded with a 6-run top of the fifth inning to help induce the 10-run mercy rule. “This is the offense we have,” Hebers said. “When we show up, we show up. It can be impressive and explosive.” Golden has the inside track to grab second-place and an automatic postseason bid in the league behind Valor. The Demons’ biggest challenge could come at home next Saturday against D’Evelyn (8-4, 1-0). Wheat Ridge will attempt to get back on track and end its 2-game losing streak at home Thursday against Evergreen.

best possible show we can.” Arvada senior Wesley Moore said he’s looking forward to performing the rest of the season. But of of all, he’s looking forward to the community he gets by being in marching band.

“It’s a community that’s really strong,” Moore said. “The students in marching band are bound like no other program. I’m looking forward to support from our band to other bands and from other bands to us. There is sometimes petty rivalries between high schools but this year, we’re going to try to end that and have the entire Jeffco area support each other and lift each other up.”

Making the most of transition season between fishing and hunting OUTDOOR LIVING

Ron Hellbusch

here did the summer fishing season go? Not that we should give up on September and October angling, after all fall in Colorado can be a choice season for both fly rod and lake angling. However, we are in that transition season, when it is time to unlock the gun case, check, clean and prep the shotguns, rifles and archery gear for upcoming fall and winter hunting seasons. Add a trip to your favorite outdoors shop or local Colorado Parks and Wildlife Office to get 2017-2018 small game and waterfowl licenses and federal migratory and state waterfowl stamps. Hunters must possess a habitat stamp as well, possibly a youth (under 18) small game license, a furbearer license or ban-tailed pigeon permit,

depending on one’s interest. Sportsmen applying for the various small game and waterfowl licenses born after Jan. 1, 1949 must possess a hunter education card as a prerequisite. Outdoor shops and CP&W offices can suggest dates and time for scheduled classes leading up to the issuance of the card. All required licenses and permits along with full, detail regulations are included in the 2017 Colorado Small Game & Waterfowl Regulations Handbook, a “must read” available also at outdoor shops and Colorado CP&W Offices. Hunters are responsible to obtain and thoroughly be familiar with game seasons and regulations described in detail in the 2017 handbook. Ronald Hellbusch can be reached at Ron-Hellbusch@comcast.net.

DUCK AND RABBIT SEASON Some of the more popular Colorado hunting seasons recently set by the CP&W Commission or the US Fish & Wildlife Service include cottontail rabbit (Oct. 1-Feb.28, 2018); mourning dove (Sept. 1-Nov 29); pheasant (Nov. 11-Jan. 31, 2018);quail (Nov. 11-Jan. 31, 2018);Northeast Zone duck east of I-25 (Oct 7-Nov 27 & Dec.16-Jan. 28, 2018); Mountain/Foothills Zone duck west of I-25 (Sept.30-Nov. 26 & Dec 23-Jan. 28, 2018); Regular Central Flyway Zone goose east of US 85 (Nov. 6-Feb. 18, 2018); Northern Front Range goose season west of US 85 (Sept.30-Oct. 11 & Nov.18-Feb. 18, 2018) and a waterfowl youth hunt established with dates listed in the handbook.

Patches feature pumpkins, mazes, frights under) and unlimited jumping on a giant pillow. Pony rides and hamster balls are available for an additional fee. Vendors will sell favorite fall foods such as funnel cakes, hotdogs, freshly squeezed lemonade and kettle corn. Tickets to the pumpkin festival include access to the 10-acre pumpkin patch and family and children’s activities. Pumpkin prices vary by size; the average price is $8. It is recommended to bring a wagon to transport pumpkins. Free pumpkin daycare is available while you enjoy the rest of the festival. Discounted maze tickets available during festival.

Sessions run from 5:30-8:30 p.m. one Wednes-

Topics and dates are: Public Education Today, Oct. 18; The What, Why & How of Teaching, Nov. 15; Jeffco Logistics, Dec. 13; Supporting Students, Jan. 17; and Community Connections, Feb. 21. A graduation ceremony is planned for the March 1, 2018, board of education meeting. Space at Jeffco University is limited to 40 participants; a lottery system will be used to fill spaces in a fair manner. Parents and guardians of Jeffco students will be given preference.

WHEREAS, by virtue of this default, the Secretary has declared the entire amount of the indebtedness secured by the Deed of Trust to be immediately due and payable;

NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to powers vested in me by the Single Family Mortgage Foreclosure Act of 1994, 12 U.S.C., §3751 et seq., by 24 CFR Part 27 Subpart B, and by the Secretary’s designation of me as Foreclosure Commissioner, dated March 8, 2017, a copy of which is attached hereto and recorded of even date hereof, notice is hereby given that on:

DATE OF SALE: October 11, 2017 TIME OF SALE: at 10:00 a.m. local time PLACE OF SALE: Outside the Front Entrance of the Jefferson County Administration Building, 100 Jefferson County Parkway, Golden, CO 80419

all of the Real Property and all of the personal property at or used in connection with the Real

Property, as described below, will be sold at public action to the highest bidder: Lot 32, Lakewood View Subdivision County of Jefferson, State of Colorado (referred to as the “Real Property”)

which has an address of: 7200 W. Archer Pl., Lakewood, CO 80226

The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development will bid $171,603.31 plus any additional fees and costs of the foreclosure commissioner.

There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his prorata share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale.

When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling $17,160.00 (10% of the Secretary's bid) in the form of a certified check or cashier's check made out to the Secretary of HUD.

Each oral bid need not be accompanied by an additional deposit. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of $17, 160.00 must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit of the successful bidder is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier's check. If the Secretary is the high bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash. The successful bidder will pay all conveyancing fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery of the remainder of the payment and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them.

The Secretary may grant an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extensions will be for 15-day increments for a fee of $500.00, paid in advance. The extension fee shall be in the form of a certified or cashiers check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due. If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit or, at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD Field Office representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure.

The Commissioner may, at the direction of the HUD Field Office Representative, offer the Property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder.

There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the mortgagor or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant to the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein. HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant, and has no obligation to deliver the property vacant.

The scheduled foreclosure sale shall be cancelled or adjourned if it is established, by documented written application of the mortgagor to the Foreclosure Commissioner not less than 3 days before the date of sale, or otherwise, that the default or defaults upon which the foreclosure sale is based did not exist at the time of service of this notice of default and foreclosure sale, or all amounts due under the Note and Deed of Trust are tendered to the Foreclosure Commissioner, in the form of a certified or cahier’s check payable to the Secretary of HUD, before public auction of the property is completed.

The amount that must be paid if the Note and Deed of Trust is to be reinstated prior to the scheduled sale is $170,623.86 as of July 7, 2017 plus the Foreclosure Commissioner’s fees and costs plus all other amounts that would be due under the mortgage agreement if payments under the mortgage had not been accelerated, advertising costs and postage expenses incurred in giving notice, mileage by the most reasonable road distance for posting notices and for the Foreclosure Commissioner's attendance at the sale, reasonable and customary costs incurred for title and lien record searches, the necessary out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Foreclosure Commissioner for recording documents, a commission for the Foreclosure Commissioner, and all other costs incurred–in
