Valor captures lacrosse title Eagles claim Class 4A crown with victory over Dawson
Fagen continues on Page 14
By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Valor Christian didn’t appear to have a very good lacrosse team early in the season, but this was a case of a first impression being wrong. The Eagles started off with an 0-3 record and were 3-4 after a 14-11 loss to Dawson on April 19. But Valor recovered and won its 12th straight game in the Class 4A state championship with a 10-9 victory over Dawson School May 20 at Sports Authority Field at Mile High in Denver. “We were really down at the beginning...,” Valor coach John Grant Jr. said. “I was questioning my coaching. We had to find ourselves, we had to dig down. We did everything we needed to do. I’m proud of them.” Valor went on a team retreat and Lacrosse continues on Page 28
Douglas County School District Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen is leaving to assume the top position in the Humble Independent School District in Texas, a district of 39,000 students about 20 miles Fagen outside of Houston. “Humble ISD is an excellent school district — a great match for me personally and professionally,” she wrote in an email sent to district staff after the Humble school board confirmed her at its May 24 meeting as the finalist. “And I am very grateful for the opportunity they have offered me.” Fagen, hired by the Douglas County School Board in 2010, said in her email she expects to leave by mid-July. Texas law requires a 21-day waiting period between naming of the lone finalist and the school board’s final approval. That vote would

FACES AMONG US
NEWS IN A HURRY Park gets new workout equipment Highlands Heritage Regional Park won’t have turf fields until this fall, but visitors can still work out on a variety of new equipment. The park, off South University Boulevard and South Quebec Street, has a fitness circuit with 17 exercise stations. The circuit has three workout areas with different focuses, such as legs, back, arms and chest. Cost of equipment and installation was $120,000, which was paid for by Douglas County’s conservation trust fund. Each station uses resistance instead of weights, according to a media release. Settings can be adjusted for beginners or experts and are compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Instructions are posted next to each piece of equipment. Smart phone owners can also scan a code on the equipment to watch a tutorial video. If the equipment gets positive reviews, the county will look at implementing similar stations in other parks. “The creation of recreation opportunities that support a healthy, active lifestyle is a top priority for us,” County commissioner and board chair David Weaver said. “It’s this investment and commitment that has helped the county sustain its No. 1 ranking in the state for six straight years in overall health behavior.”

HELLO
A glimpse of the people in our community
... My Name Is
CODY FANNING Lifeguard, baseball junkie, future pulmonary doctor About me I’m 23 years old, born and raised in Colorado. I’ve lived in Highlands Ranch for about 10 years. I graduated from Highlands Ranch High School and then went to Concorde Career College in Aurora. It helps prepare you for a future career — get your foot in the door. I studied respiratory therapy but I want to further my education at University of Colorado’s Anschutz Medical Campus. My goal is to become a pulmonary doctor.
What I do I didn’t want just any other restaurant job. With my health background and knowing that I want to be in the health industry, I thought a lifeguard position was fitting. Mornings are very relaxed at the pool. We have the occasional lap swimmers. Mid-morning is when things pick up and we are on full alert. That’s when the kids come in. I spend the day rotating through stations, 35 minutes each. At the end of each cycle, I can either take a break or help another lifeguard clean. In my free time, I like to play baseball and softball. I’m a big baseball junkie. I like sports in general — anything sports-related, I will be there. Advice for young swimmers Know your limits and standards. Only go where you feel comfortable. Know what areas you can and cannot enter in the pool. But also have fun. And know that we lifeguards are there if you need anything. If you have suggestions for My Name Is..., contact adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com
ICan Bike volunteers needed Individuals with mental and physical disabilities have the opportunity to learn how to ride a conventional twowheel bicycle this summer. The Highlands Ranch Community Association Therapeutic Recreation Program is hosting Colorado’s ICan Bike program June 13-17. “It is a tremendous event that brings new life to the participants, giving them new confidence and independence,” said Jamie Noebel, HRCA director of community relations and events. Campers will attend 75-minute sessions every day for a week at Eastridge Recreation Center, 9568 S. University Blvd. The ICan Bike program is part of ICan Shine, a national non-profit organization that collaborates with local organizations to host camps in their communities. iCan Shine uses adapted equipment, trained professionals and volunteers. At the end of the camp, more than 80 percent of riders learn to ride a conventional bicycle independently. The HRCA needs about 100 volunteers to help 35 campers this summer. Volunteers must be at least 16 years old and must register by June 1 at http://hrcaonline.org/ Classes-Camps-Activities/Therapeutic-Recreation/TRiCanBike. For more information, contact Summer Aden, camp director, at 303-471-7043 or summer.aden@hrcaonline.org.

‘The world is yours’ Highlands Ranch High students take school spirit with them By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Highlands Ranch High School graduate Quinn Oberg achieved his dream of rapping on stage at Red Rocks Amphitheatre when he gave his speech May 18 at the school’s graduation ceremony in the iconic location. He encouraged his fellow graduates to go on and achieve their dreams.
Student Senator Michael Pauley welcomed attendees at the commencement.
Quoting the rapper Nas, Oberg told them, “the world is yours!’” Highlands Ranch High School graduated more than 300 students in the class of 2016. Their class motto read, “The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.” The class song, “Breakaway” by Kelly Clarkson, talks about spreading wings and learning to fly — what the 2016 Falcons will do as they embark on their next journey in life. As student senator Kayla Kolber said: “The spirit of Highlands Ranch High School that runs through us will always be with us.”

Local Korean War veterans honored Three Douglas County residents receive medals to show gratitude
By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Joy. Disbelief. Honor. Mixed emotions were felt by the three Douglas County veterans who received medals May 17 at the Castle Rock Ameri-
can Legion meeting for their service during the Korean War. “I didn’t think anybody even remembered us,” said Hal NewVille, a Lone Tree resident who served as a combat engineer with the Army. NewVille and Castle Rock residents George Franicevic and Jim Redmond are the newest recipients of the Korean Ambassador for Peace Medal, which was created by the South Korean government as a way to thank the American servicemen
Three area students honored with Congressional Awards High school students are recognized for initiative, achievement and service Staff report Three South Metro-area students from Highlands Ranch, Centennial and Greenwood Village were honored recently with a Congressional Award Medal that recognizes initiative, achievement and service in young people. Students earn a bronze, silver or gold Congressional Award if they set and achieve goals in four areas — voluntary public service, personal achievement, physical fitness and expedition or exploration. The program, established in 1989 and open to ages 14-23, is non-partisan, voluntary and non-competitive, according to congressionalaward.org. “Earning the Congressional Award is a fun and interesting way to get more involved in something you already enjoy or something you’d like to try for the first time,” the website says. Below are the three students honored in U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman’s Sixth Congressional District, which covers Aurora and areas of Centennial, Littleton, and Highlands Ranch. Eric Zhang, a student at Rock Canyon High School, received the Silver Congressional Medal. He completed more than 200 hours of community service for Brookdale Highlands Ranch Nursing Home and Project Cure, an international organization that donates medical supplies to needy areas. Zhang, of Highlands Ranch, studied
art and improved his piano skills as part of personal development. His physical fitness increased when he joined the high school’s swim team and practiced daily. For his expedition, Zhang planned a trip to the 9/11 memorial and museum to “gain a better understanding of the attacks,” a media release says. Spencer Christensen, of Centennial, also received a Silver Congressional Medal for completing more than 200 volunteer hours at his local library. For personal development, he attended a weekly church meeting to learn more about Biblical characters. He joined Arapahoe High School’s track team and participated in a summer running program to increase his 5K time on the cross country team. Christensen planned a six-day trip to Nisland, South Dakota, for his expedition. He learned about a new culture and was exposed to an agricultural environment. William Wallis, a Cherry Creek High School student, was awarded the Bronze Congressional Medal for more than 100 hours of volunteer work at the Boys Team Charity, a non-profit organization that connects young men and their parents to other non-profit organizations. Wallis, of Greenwood Village, also helped build an orphanage in Ecuador. His personal development goal was to practice the piano weekly and perform in a recital. For fitness, he attended regular swim practices to increase muscle and stamina. Wallis attended a surf school in Waikiki Beach, Hawaii, for his final expedition.
and women who served in the Korean War in the 1950s. “These men went through a lot,” said Jim McGibney, the honorary consul of the Republic of Korea, who awarded the medal on behalf of Korea. “It was a tough war. It was probably one of our toughest and they came through it, they prevailed.” Along with the medals, the men received an official proclamation from the South Korean government thanking them for their service.
Redmond served as a weapons system specialist in the Air Force for the first jets based in Thailand. The planes he armed flew over Korea during the liberation of South Korea. Franicevic entered the draft in 1952 and was stationed in Louisville, Kentucky prior to deployment. He served in the U.S. Military Police during the Korean War. “I haven’t felt this way before,” Franicevic said, wiping tears from his eyes. “We just did our job.”

Graduates will also be joining the U.S. Air Force, Army and Marines Corps. “Now that we’ve reached a new chapter in our lives … we start to reach into the age of classic rock,” Lamb said. “We finally get to be as free as a bird, and Aerosmith is telling us to keep dreaming on, because this next step won’t even be close to our last.”

Rock Canyon grads get cheerful sendoff Commencement marks end of high school for 433 students By Rick Gustafson Special to Colorado Community Media Sunny skies, a slight, warm breeze and a near-capacity crowd of friends and family filled Sports Authority Stadium in Parker on May 20 to mark the sendoff for the Rock Canyon High School Class of 2016. Along with remembrances, advice and well wishes from valedictorian Ji Woo Park and National Honor Society member Emily Klein, there was still some time for humor. Math teacher Tony Koy began his charge to the class to roars of laughter and cheers when he produced a 3-foot selfie stick for one final shot with the class of 2016.
The trio of Daniel Irwin, Ian Kretzmann and Stephen Morrison perform “La Rejouissance.” The piece was one of two musical performances by seniors during the graduation ceremony.
Of the 438 graduating seniors, 94 percent are enrolled in either junior college or university this fall, and the class amassed about $14.3 million in scholarship money. In addition, the class has been part of the effort to raise more than $275,000 during the past four years for Make-A-Wish Foundation, an organization the school has partnered with for seven years. The class chose as its motto a quote from Nobel Prize-winning author André Gide, who wrote, “You can never cross the ocean until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.” Before presenting the class for graduation, Principal Andy Abner also took a moment to recognize students who had volunteered to serve in the Armed Forces and encouraged graduates to unplug from technology and connect with the world around them.
Live Better.

ThunderRidge grads ready to ‘paint their own masterpieces’
By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com ThunderRidge valedictorian Kiana Trippler told fellow graduates to paint their own stories: Draw something — anything — as long as it is yours. “Your life is this wonderful, changeable canvas,” she said at the high school’s May 19 graduation ceremony at Sports Authority Stadium in Parker. Her notion of a painting signified students and their futures. How will students exist in others’ paintings? Who will they draw in their own paintings? She told her classmates they are now ready to paint the final masterpiece. “It’s your story, your painting, your life,” she said, “and it’s as densely packed as you wish it to be.” ThunderRidge graduates had a ceremony to remember — clear skies, sunshine, several entertainers and powerful speakers. Senior Olivia Jacobs took the stage, took out her selfie stick and posed with graduates seated behind her. She would post the photo on Twitter and caption it with “#seniors,” she said, jokingly. Her message was to take time away from technology and strive to make a positive difference in the world. “It’s up to this generation to be the change we wish to see,” she said. The event included musical performances. The school’s wind ensemble performed a cinematic song from “How to Train Your Dragon.” The chorale sang Toto’s classic, “Africa.” A boys’ acapella group performed “I’ll be There For You” by The Rembrandts. And a choral group finished with “I Live” by One Republic, which sparked a celebratory dance by the crowd of graduates. As graduates received their diplomans, Principal Chris Tabeling sent them off with a handshake or — more often — a warm hug. The morning ended with a message of hope. “Enjoy your present,” Trippler said, “appreciate your past and respect your future.”

SkyView Academy has second graduation Class took unusual path through high school years By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com SkyView Academy valedictorian Ben Butler pointed out the unique experience he and his classmates have had as the second class to graduate from the high school. “I’d be willing to bet that we are the only high schoolers in Colorado who have gone to high school at a college, you know, the University of Phoenix down the road (where students took classes in the early years of SVA), and a Home Depot. I bet no one else has had that sort of high school experience.” Butler used a cookie metaphor during his speech in the school gymnasium May 20 to describe his classmates, saying they share many ingredients in the form of
memories that helped shape who they are. “I know exactly what kind of cookie each of you are,” Butler said to the 43 graduates. History teacher Zack Brackney served as the keynote speaker. Brackney became emotional several times while addressing his students. “Obviously this group of people has deeply, deeply touched me,” he said. Brackney spoke about how, due to technology, this generation of students had new ways to quantify and qualify their lives that older generations could not and encouraged students to “know yourself.” Founding Principal Jennifer Burgess said “it was clear from day one that this class was serious about their learning and friendships.” “I have confidence that we have prepared you to think critically, advocate for yourselves and to seek knowledge,” Burgess said.

Right problem may be no problem Really, is there any such thing as a good problem? I mean if we have a problem it is a problem, right? Of course there are real problems that need very real solutions. But there are also problems that could easily be turned into opportunities, and there are problems that are indeed very good problems. Even problems or challenges that become opportunities need to be managed correctly in order to convert the opportunity into an achievement or success story. And then there are the good problems. Those are the problems that also require a solid solution or proactive strategy or they too can quickly move from being a good problem to a very bad problem or crisis if not managed carefully and properly. Let’s look at just a couple of examples of what those good problems might look like. One such example may be that you have been a victim of “downsizing” or “right sizing” at work and have found yourself unemployed. However, you have been given a very lucrative severance package and you have more new job offers than you know what to do with. With each new day, another job offer seems to come your way. The good problem is that you are making money from your severance and you have opportunities ahead of you. How this turns into a bad problem is when you get comfortable not working, or procrastinate on your decision-
making about which new job opportunity to take, and before you know it the money is gone and so are the offers. Another good problem could be that you own a business and have more customers than you can possibly serve. Money is Michael Norton coming in, cash flow is good, customers and WINNING employees are happy, WORDS and you are enjoying your vacation time. If you watch the Food Network or happen to catch any of those restaurant shows where they have to do a makeover or fix the business, many of those owners had a very good problem at one time, they had more customers than they could serve. Before they knew it, quality suffered, service slowed down, chefs and servers walked off the job, and the ownership ended up in crisis mode. Enough of a crisis mode where they had to invite in a restaurant consultant and television show to help them re-establish their brand and credibility or risk losing everything they had worked so hard for. You see, there really are good problems
in life. But the word “problem” is still there. And as stated earlier, every problem, good or bad, needs a solution. My Uncle Harry used to always say, “Nothing is so bad it couldn’t be worse, and there is nothing so good that it couldn’t be better.” Just another way of saying, we have to manage all the situations, challenges and opportunities in our lives or they will become a problem. So the next time you are explaining a situation to someone and they say, “Well that’s a good problem to have,” instead of taking pride in that good problem, it should put you on alert. And instead of sitting back and getting caught in the comfort zone, the first thing you should do is pay attention to the word “problem” and figure out a plan and strategy to keep that good problem train chugging along or have a clear path to get the train back on the tracks of consistency. Problems are easy, solutions take work. How about you, have you ever been in a “good problem” situation? What did you do about it or what are you doing about it? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we turn our good problems into even better opportunities, it really will be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

Follicle follies are all much too much Do you have 1980s hair? Please do me a favor. Get a haircut. Get two. Our hairstyles in the 1960s were awful, but forgivable. For the very first time, the focus was on young Americans and not on Craig Marshall Smith our parents. QUIET We did OK, but DESPERATION there was a lot of hair. Remember? Clothing was awful too. Bellbottoms. Say no more, say no more. The 1970s and the 1980s were just as bad. But it was different. We should have known better by then, but most of us didn’t Women all looked like the Mandrell sisters or the Murphy Brown cast. In music, there were “hair bands.” Mötley Crüe, Twisted Sister, Poison. Kiss. And Gene Simmons still has that hair. It’s a shoe polish helmet. Ann and Nancy Wilson were sisters, but they weren’t twisted. But Heart was a hair band too. I was crazy on Nancy (the blonde). There are photographs of me that I have tried to repress. It never got completely out of hand, but my look somewhat embarrasses me now. There were people and performers who seemed to get it right. Robert Palmer — remember “Addicted to Love”? — always looked dapper. The rest of us had hair over our ears, and collars the size of paper airplanes. Women wore shoulder pads. And other things. Leg warmers.

A farewell to ‘my closest outdoors companion’ The first 10 days of May were difficult: Each day seemed more increasingly arduous for her. Then came that quiet morning when she passed. After a long life, aging and declining health took control, and I surrendered my closest outdoors companion. Aspen was past her 15th birthday — a blessing of a long life in itself. She still looked forward to our evening walks — however shorter or slower-paced. She continued to follow me about the house — to stay close. I felt the strength of her eyes with a wondering expression — questioning why she was weaker. Expressions were almost apologetic — when her appetite was waning. I knew she still wanted to make that ride in the Jeep — closeness for both of us. She would give me a clear look for help — to make that step from the porch into the house — and expressions of appreciation when her legs needed support. During these days, however, there were no apologies, only, seemingly, an acceptance of her aging and declining strength. The weakness, diminished level of activity, physical changes and longer time in sleep gradually accelerated over the past
three years. I saw it and felt it creeping into Aspen’s life and into mine. The change was difficult to witness, but I resolved to alter our time together, to keep her active, support her health and adjust our routines. Pet owners can Ron Hellbusch struggle with that OUTDOOR change, sometimes to the extent of failing LIVING to see the need for accommodation pets require. It occurred to me the gradual aging process for our pets can be so similar to that of aging parents, family or friends — or literally our own lives. Yet regardless, each deserves the same sensitivity, attention, time, patience and support. Yellow labs are sizable and sturdy, but when they cannot get themselves into our vehicles, they deserve a ramp or a lift so that they never are ignored or left behind. Walks should become a slower and more Hellbusch continues on Page 11

Southern rock rings Smith out from Castle Rock Continued from Page 10
Shooter Jennings plays the first ticketed concert at Philip S. Miller By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com For Centennial resident Skylar Ferentz, attending the May 21 Shooter Jennings concert in Castle Rock was a no-brainer. She and her husband are huge fans of the southern rock outlaw, so much so that “The Deed and the Dollar” was the first dance song at Ferentz’s wedding. Jennings was in town as the first show in the new Celebration Concert Series at the Philip S. Miller Amphitheater. “I’m proud to be the first one here,” he said, after completing the sound check on the new stage. “It’s so beautiful … looking at the scenery. It’s so beautiful and the sound is just going out there into the universe.” That’s what Jennings, the only son of country legends Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter, said he likes best about playing outdoor venues. “I love to play outdoors,” he said. “The wind blows and you feel like you’re at Woodstock or something.” About 750 music lovers attended the inaugural concert. Castle Rock Special Events Manager Casey Willis called it just the beginning. “Our hope is that each show grows,” she said. “We are excited that we have selected a diverse schedule of performances and musical genres to please all musical interests. Concert-goers will have a choice of country, bluegrass southern rock and more.” Residents who attended the show are excited that music under the stars can be found in their backyard. “We are 15 minutes away from an

Photo by Shanna Fortier absolutely beautiful amphitheater and we’re getting these great bands coming in,” David Chapa, 14, said. “This is a fantastic venue.” On the stage at the amphitheater this summer are the Beatles tribute band, The Fab Four, on June 11; the Colorado Symphony on June 30; the Marshall Tucker Band on Aug. 27; and Starship, featuring Mickey Thomas, on Sept. 24. Todd Sheldon, who usually drives to Red Rocks Amphitheatre to see shows, said his family already has tickets for the Marshall Tucker Band concert. When asked what other bands he would like to see come to town, he suggested Lucinda Williams, John Hiatt and any ‘80s bands.

I think I know what happens. We find a hairstyle that we like, and we stick with it. I look now like I did when I was in Little League. I have a crew cut. A “crew cut” gets its name from the short hair that crew members had. Less wind resistance. Maintaining it is a snap. I dare you to people watch, and keep track of the men and women — mostly the women — who could use a haircut. I still see hair that amounts to amber waves of fluffed-out locks. Ginger Rogers, bless her. She was a beauty in the 1940s. She held on to her look through the ‘50s, ‘60s, ‘70s, ‘80s and ‘90s. She died in 1995 at the age of 83. She was still a platinum blonde with a surfeit of makeup. Generally, we can fool our hair into thinking we’re still in our 20s, 30s and 40s, but we can’t fool our skin. Some try. You do recall Joan Rivers? I’m to blame. Men are to blame. We don’t let women age gracefully. Ashley Madison and others are out to

patient experience to provide a quality of life they deserve. Close attention and observation of food types and changes in body functions can require accommodation. Unlike humans, the pain that comes with weakening hips, shoulders or body organs typically is not always apparent to us. So that requires periodic veterinarian examinations and, possibly, medication.

take us away from our wives and girlfriends. Of course, some women want to look like Charo. Charo is 75. There is not one thing on her that looks 75. I am not the one to ask. I am opposed to beauty pageants and fashion shows and ogling red carpet getups. Las Vegas showgirls are about as far away as it gets from my definition of beauty. Eye makeup by trowel only worked for Cleopatra and Amy Winehouse. If a woman and I are headed out to dinner, and it takes her 90 minutes to get ready, it will be our last supper. Let me summarize. Get a haircut. Your next one might be on me. Send me an email. In 100 words or less, tell me why you badly need an updated hairstyle. I will see that the winner is taken care of at an area establishment. Unless I lose my grip (see: Howard Hughes), I will never have long hair again. There are always exceptions.

ditional love they bring into our lives is extended back in their care and comfort. A friend of mine who had a long line of Golden retrievers in his life observed that “when we bring a pet into our lives we need to be aware we will most certainly live past their days and we must be willing to provide compassionate support as their lives fade.” Those sunrises over the duck blind, the decoy days on the river, flushing birds from the fields and the high mountain hikes will be very different. But the memories will remind me of my good fortune in having had that special companionship with Aspen. Outdoors writer Ron Hellbusch can be reached at Ron-Hellbusch@comcast.net.

STEM graduates noted for wide interests Students are more than just future scientists, engineers By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com STEM School and Academy valedictorian George Pandya said enthusiasm has been to the key to the success of the Class of 2016. “We joined the school back when it was an experiment and those of us in this room today had the enthusiasm and belief in the school to stay, even through the rough patches — even when the internet wouldn’t work,” Pandya said of the 53 graduates at the CU South Denver campus. “We did this because of our enthusiasm and passions for the future. It is this enthusiasm that will give the STEM class of 2016 an upper hand over all the other graduating classes.” Principal Cody Blackburn reminded the graduates that they are more than the label people give them and not to limit themselves. “Sure, all of you that attend this school are science, technology, engineering and math students, and many people from the outside attach labels to you because of that, but being a STEM kid doesn’t truly define your true identity,” Blackburn said. “When I look out at you, I see scientists, mathematicians and engineers of all types. But I also see musicians, and writers and philosophers and athletes. Faith leaders, politicians and jugglers. Entrepreneurs
and filmmakers. Artists, lawyers and teachers.” Executive Director Dr. Penny Eucker spoke about how a school music project, Band Together, brought the class and school closer. “It’s a simple idea, we all help each other find our song and then record it with the support and affection of others,” she said. “What I witnessed was a shift in our school. Seemingly overnight, students were more relaxed and supportive of each other. Being connected allows for more laughter and joy.” Salutatorian Nathan Eng told his classmates to remember the good times. “There are many ways to remember STEM. Whether you chose to remember your time here as one big blur or two emotional graduations, three epic proms, four long years or five different Spanish teachers, whatever you choose to remember, I hope you’ll agree STEM has been some truly epic memories.”

County tackles South Broadway repairs Officials say it’s about ‘the life cycle of roads’
By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com Road construction on South Broadway in Highlands Ranch is for preventative maintenance, county officials said. The area targeted for repairs extends from just south of County Line Road to just south of Highlands Ranch Parkway. “The arterial roads are aging and the
concrete panels are starting to break,” said Darrell Roberts, engineering permits, inspections and utilities manager for Douglas County. “Differential movement of panels causes the bump-bump sound you here when you drive over them.” The construction project will occur in three phases. Phase one, concrete panel repair, is underway. Phase two, cement grinding, is scheduled for the first week of June until August. The final phase is sealant application, which is scheduled mid-July to mid-October. The total cost is about $5.6 million —

Continued from Page 1
come on June 14. Fagen attended the May 24 meeting in Humble with her husband and two daughters. DCSD Board of Education President Meghann Silverthorn praised Fagen’s accomplishments. “Dr. Fagen has led many changes and improvements in the past six years …,” Silverthorn said in a news release sent the evening of May 24 by the school district. “We’re grateful for her tireless service and commitment to education. We wish her and her family all the best in her future endeavors.” But many teachers and parents have blamed Fagen and the school board majority for policies that caused widespread low morale and led to an exodus of teachers and administrators over the past several years. Controversial initiatives included a new teacher-evaluation system and market-based pay salary structure. The district is in the midst of legal challenges surrounding its attempt to create a voucher system. During her ten-
phases one and two each cost about $2 million and phase three about $1.6 million. The high volume of traffic on South Broadway breaks up concrete faster, Roberts said. A July 2015 count by the county found roughly 35,000 vehicles per day travel the stretch of South Broadway in Highlands Ranch. Without maintenance, the road has a rough ride to it and “wears and tears on vehicles,” Roberts said. Instead of repairing concrete panels on a regular basis, the county prefers one large project every 10 to 15 years.
ure, the school board severed ties with the teachers’ union. And the hashtag #firefagen has been used widely on social media for more than a year. “In 2009, the Douglas County Board of Education undertook the re-invention of American education and subsequently hired Superintendent Fagen to further their goal,” said board member Wendy Vogel who, along with David Ray and Anne-Marie Lemieux, was elected in November on a platform critical of district and board policies. “I think that her
resignation is a clear indication that their reform agenda is not working.” Ray said he had mixed emotions about Fagen’s departure. “I believe she was placed in an extremely difficult position of carrying out the edicts of the previous board. Unfortunately, her past six years have been marred by turmoil due to the ill-advised nature of the board’s actions,” Ray said. “Fortunately, the superintendent’s resignation will continue the process of restoring trust in our district. My hope is that senior
The project is done in phases to mitigate the impact on daily travelers. And the county plans to do some phase-one maintenance at night to reduce the impact on adjacent commercial businesses, Roberts said. County officials encourage residents to use online resources to stay up-to-date on construction projects. Douglas County has a “Cone Zone” map that lists all projects, including ones specific to Highlands Ranch, at www.douglas. co.us/road-work/maintenance-projects/ highlands-ranch-road-improvements.
board members will follow the superintendent’s example of doing whatever is necessary to continue building trust — even when it means sacrificing the self for the sake of our learners.” Douglas County Parents, an organization formed in 2013 over concerns about the district’s policies, called Fagen’s move a step toward mending rifts between the community and district. “The results of the school board election last November were quite clear, showing the community does not support ‘reform,’ “ Jason Virdin, spokesman for the organization, said in a statement. “We are anxious to start the healing process in Douglas County and hope the board majority will back up their recent assertions with action — gathering and considering significant, substantial community and staff input while searching for a new superintendent.” Fagen’s strategic plan, as described on the school district website, highlights safety, school choice, world-class education, 21st century skills and system performance as its priorities. In a news release, the district credits Fagen for improving student and staff safety in schools, building a strong network with home schools and charter schools
and “empowering teachers to create inspiring…curriculum units.” Before coming to Douglas County, Fagen was superintendent of the Tucson Unified School District in Arizona. Fagen, whose salary is $273,715, is moving to a district a little more than half the size of Douglas County, which has more than 67,000 students and about 80 schools. It is Colorado’s third largest district. Chosen from among 43 applicants in a nationwide search, Fagen will replace outgoing Superintendent Guy Sconzo, who is retiring after 15 years with the Humble district. According to its website, the district has 43 campuses, 5,000 employees and is among the 25 fastest-growing school districts in Texas. It is the 31st largest district in the state. “We are excited about getting the best education mind in the country,” said Humble school board president Robert Sitton about Fagen. “It’s powerful what she is going to be able to do. When people talk about education, we want them to say, ‘You really need to go see what Humble ISD is doing.’ She is, in our opinion, the leader to take us there. She is innovative, visionary and not afraid to take risks if it enhances education.”

Dishes to share, friendships to make It started with a lid
Spanish-style tapas not only a culinary experience By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com
K
ayla Nilges and three friends visited Acres Restaurant in Englewood recently because they wanted to celebrate Mother’s Day while sharing a sampling of tapas — small plates of food meant to be shared. “I think tapas-style dining is a great idea,” Nilges said. “You get to taste a lot of different dishes and then go back for more of the one you like. It is a very social time as we talk about the different dishes and, of course, about a lot of other things.” Nilges isn’t the only one enjoying the increasingly popular trend of eating tapas. Acres is just one of numerous restaurants in the South Metro area that offer them. Some, like the Centennial restaurant Tapas D’ Jerez, make their food genre clear by its name. Others, such as Acres and Fireside Bar & Grill in the Denver Tech Center, let their customers spread the word once they’ve visited. The popularity of the dining style is in the congenial ambience it creates, its fans say. “Tapas, for us, is a way for our customers to experience many different flavors that stimulate the palate,” said John Benson, who opened Acres a year ago. “Stimulating the palate also stimulates conversation, so it is a social event. There are several dishes on the table. The diners are sharing the food from each dish. As they experience the tastes, they talk about the food they are eating as well as what is going on in their lives.” According to historians, tapas date back centuries to when innkeepers offered small sample plates to travelers because most couldn’t read menus. Popular in Spain for hundreds of years, tapas eventually migrated to other countries in Europe and to the United States. A New York Times article in 1997 talked of the steady increase in the number of

A staff member explains the menu, including the tapas items, to customers new to Acres Restaurant in Englewoood. A tapas selection is a small plate of food. The idea is for diners to order several tapas dishes and share the items. establishments offering tapas. It even proposed the idea that tapas eating was becoming a substitute for the traditional restaurant dining experience. In December 2014, a story on Gourmetmarketing.net explored how the tapas trend was revolutionizing restaurant practices. According to the article, the trend grew as the public’s focus on healthier eating resulted in restaurants reducing calories and portions of menu items. Locally, tapas menus appeared in restaurants like the 9th Door Tapas Bar and Restaurant that opened in downtown Denver several years ago. Charlie Winters joined five friends at the 9th Door downtown location on Blake Street earlier this month. “We come here often,” the Denver resident said. “The food is great and there is a great atmosphere. We have menu favorites, but we usually order one or two items new to us. It is just a great way to spend a few hours with friends.” Tapas’ rich Spanish origins are evident at Tapas D’ Jerez, 8236 S. Holly St. in Centennial. The walls are decorated with art depicting Spanish customs and the menu is in Spanish with English explanations.
The restaurant and wine bar features a happy hour special of two-for-one tapas. Highlands Ranch resident Sandi Thompson works in the area and frequently meets friends at the Tapas D’ Jerez because they like the food and dining style. But not all tapas restaurants feature strictly Spanish cuisine. For example, Acres features a wide variety of creations, ranging from buttermilk biscuits and Colorado honey butter and the chef’s own version of tater tots, which are potato nuggets with bacon, cheddar and garlic and chive aioli. The menu also includes featured entrees. Every dish is made fresh, from scratch, he said. Items go on and off the menu depending on whether he can get fresh ingredients for the dish. At Acres, Benson is a hands-on owner: He greets customers as they arrive, mixes beverages and serves meals to the tables. “I like to ask people when they come in if they are here to party and have a good time,” he said with a smile. “The idea is to share the food on the plates, have a beverage or two and enjoy socializing with those at the table. I do all I can to promote that atmosphere.”
Tapas, defined as small plates of food to be shared and enjoyed with wine, has a long and rich history. They originated in Spain, but various research sites disagree on exactly when. One says the 10th century. Another says the serving of tapas began in the Middle Ages in inns along heavily traveled roads in Europe. At that time, many —if not most — travelers could not read. So innkeepers began providing small samples of the food items available. The samples were usually set on the cover of the lid of the pot containing the menu item. The Spanish word for cover is “tapa” and that word eventually evolved to “tapas.”

The waiting is the sweetest part Does anticipation make the reward better, or is it all about getting the reward as quickly as possible? It’s a question worth considering with the absolute avalance of surprise album releases in Clarke Reader the past month. Consider this — LINER since April we’ve NOTES heard new albums from Beyoncé, Radiohead, Drake, James Blake and Chance The Rapper, all released with about a week’s notice. Some, like Blake, dropped hours after being announced. The idea of surprise-releasing an album is a relatively new marketing strategy, and almost entirely a result of the digital market’s dominance of the music industry. Beyoncé gets the much-deserved credit for pioneering the approach with her selftitled release in 2013, which arrived completely out of the blue in mid-December. In the 2 1/2 years since, artists from Eric Church to My Bloody Valentine have embraced surprise releases as a way to avoid leaks that could hurt sales or streams. It’s also a way for artists to release their work
on their terms, when they’re ready for audiences to hear the music. As a listener and music collector, I’m not entirely sold on the idea. An artist who approached the wait for an album release with panache and artistry was Kanye West, in the lead up to his 2010 album “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.” Every Friday he released a new song from the album’s recording sessions, and it was a fantastic way to stoke excitement. I remember rushing home from work every Friday to download the new song, and engage with other fans online about whether the track would make the album and, if not, why. This led to heated discussions and debate, and by the end I positively couldn’t wait for the release. I also worked at a record store for more than five years, and I remember the excitement when a favorite artist announced a new album. The announcement typically came at least two months before the release (sometimes longer) and allowed plenty of time to savor it. Usually, the announcement was accompanied by a single to give listeners a taste of what was to come, along with the album art. This allowed fans to pour over the images and decipher what the art hinted about the album’s sound and theme. Some of this still happens with surprise releases, but it’s difficult to scrutinize the album art while you’re simultaneously

digesting the music for the first time. There is some nice democratization that comes with the surprise-release approach, and I understand why it appeals to artists. Instead of having a record label decide their single, they let listeners hear the whole album and select a single based on response. Releasing music this way also provides some room to breathe for artists, since it removes the looming specter of a deadline and allows them the freedom to breathe and create on their own schedule. Looking at the aforementioned albums, as well as surprise releases this year from Kendrick Lamar, Kanye West and Rihanna, there certainly seems to be something to the approach: almost all these artists delivered some of the best and most interesting albums of their careers. Appreciation of the music-release strategy is one of those things that prob-

When we’re young, we all want Christmas and birthdays to happen as quickly as possible to get our presents. Yet, as I’ve aged I have far more appreciation for the lead-up to these events. The joy lessens from just tearing into the gifts. Instead, I take delight in the countdown, the slow unwrapping and appreciation. I will never complain about new, great music, regardless of the delivery. I just miss the anticipation. It is, after all, half the fun.

ABOUT THIS SECTION Colorado is known across the world as a winter-weather destination. Snow and skiing are what bring scores of visitors to the Centennial State each year. But as anyone who has spent a few seasons here knows, the summer is pretty special, too. And we’re almost there. So now what? Plan a getaway, if just for a day. No need to leave the state. Plenty of fun, festive and funky adventures await within Colorado’s borders. Experience the old West at towns you hadn’t heard of. Celebrate and sample corn and chicken at separate events. Hop in a hot air balloon. Watch a cowboy get tossed from a giant bull. In this section, we’ll tell you a little about those sites and events, as well as many more. They may take you off the beaten path, but you can still make it home in time for dinner or spend a night and head home the next morning. We’ve left out more than we’ve included, of course. We don’t have enough pages and you don’t have enough time for it all. But summer will be back next year. — Chris Rotar

Georgetown So Close to Home.
So Far from Your Expectations. With backdrops of towering peaks, crystalclear lakes, and the unspoiled beauty of Rocky Mountain National Park, Grand County is quintessential Colorado. But then again, there’s no need for understatements.
WHERE IS IT? 45 minutes west of Denver on I-70 NEED TO KNOW: Though often overlooked by I-70 weekend warriors making their way to the more ritzy towns farther west, the plucky little mining town of Georgetown offers a quick and easy getaway. Surprises abound in the quirky shops on Sixth Street, including the charming Georgetown Rock Shop. Stop at the Happy Cooker for the best bagels and lox you’ll find this side of New York. Traverse stunning Guanella Pass for an epic drive home. FUN FACT: Georgetown was among the first and most significant towns of Colorado’s earliest gold rush in 1859.

WHERE IS IT? The Trail of the Ancients Scenic Byway encompasses a massive area in the Four Corners area, but Colhorado’s most interesting stretch begins in Cortez, stretching northwest along U.S. Highway 491, and turning west on Montezuma County Road CC and southwest on County Road 10 at Lowry Pueblo. NEED TO KNOW: While the magnificent cliff dwellings of Mesa Verde National Park are well-known, the lonely scrublands to the northwest yield mysterious ruins of their own. Start your journey at the lovely Anasazi Heritage Center in Dolores ($3 for adults, kids free). Continue northwest to the crumbling castle of Lowry Pueblo. Turn southwest toward Hovenweep
and Canyons of the Ancients national monuments, where ruins and petroglyphs abound. Intrepid hikers will be rewarded. Don’t forget the snakebite kit. FUN FACT: More people lived in the Four Corners region a thousand years ago than do today. MORE INFORMATION: trailoftheancients.com
Picketwire Canyonlands WHERE IS IT? Drive south of La Junta on State Road 109 for 13 miles, then west on Otero County Road 802 for 8 miles. Turn left on County Road 25 and go south 6 miles to the Picketwire Corrals. High-clearance vehicles can continue 3 miles east to a trailhead descending into the canyon (though a surprising number of small cars make the final leg). NEED TO KNOW: The Picketwire Canyonlands are a shocking affront to the image of Colorado’s east as flat and boring. A several-mile hike along the canyon floor takes visitors past sublime geology, ruins, petroglyphs and the longest dinosaur tracksite in North America. Spectacular (and free) campsites line the mesa top, though camping is off-limits on the canyon bottom. FUN FACT: The name Picketwire is an Anglicization of the river’s original name, “Rio de las Animas Perdidas en Purgatorio,” or the “River of the Lost Souls in Purgatory,” so named for a legendary Spanish expedition rumored to have been massacred here.

rent (starting at $79). A log bench across the dirt street swarms with playful chipmunks eager to eat food out of visitors’ palms. Tourists with beefy vehicles can head in all directions into unparalleled high-country adventure. FUN FACT: Originally called Forest City, the Post Office demanded the town change its name because too many others already bore the same name, so one of St. Elmo’s founders renamed the town after a novel he was reading.

the arcade’s real gems are the predigital games — a litany of pinball machines, but also sharpshooters, mechanical horse racing and rare full-length Skee-Ball lanes.

The Subaru Elephant Rock Cycle Festival will offer five course lengths June 5. Courtesy photo
Elephant Rock to cycle throughout town The 29th annual ride will be held on June 5 By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com For Lone Tree resident and longtime cycler Susie Wargin, the Subaru Elephant Rock Cycling Festival is the kick-off to cycling season in the Front Range. “There are so many beautiful stretches,” said Wargin, who enjoys riding Roller Coaster Road, Highway 105 through Perry Park and Black Forest. “It’s even better on a bike.” Wargin will join other cycle enthusiasts for the 62-mile course, one of five distances offered at the 29th annual event in Castle Rock. Also available to ride are 100- and 40-mile road courses, a 27-mile gravel course and a family friendly 8-miler. The 2016 Subaru Elephant Rock Sunrise Sunset all-day mountain bike event, kicking off on the morning of June 4, is back on the trails at the new Philip S. Miller Park in Castle Rock. This playful course, a 6.5-mile loop with short climbs and quick descents, offers recreational and competitive cyclists the thrill of competing in a challenging endurance race on a moderately technical off-road course. This year, the event has partnered with professional cyclist Tom Danielson for ride-day activities. Danielson, who has competed at cycling’s highest levels, including the Tour de France, now makes Colorado home and is turning his attention and devoting his energy to fulfilling his passion of helping others reignite their love of cycling. “Tom is such a great rider, with so much to share, and his enthusiasm is totally infectious,” said Scot
Harris, Subaru Elephant Rock’s event director. “We’re humbled that he is willing to share his precious time and energy with our ERock riders.” At the June 5 ride, Danielson will spend the day on the course, riding with and encouraging riders. He will also be available during the postride celebration, the always-popular Party at the Rock to meet and talk with participants. But it’s not just about riding. The Subaru Elephant Rock is a major fundraising source for a variety of area nonprofits. For the last seven years, the American Transplant Foundation and its team of enthusiastic cyclists have plied the courses of the Subaru Elephant Rock Cycling Festival around Castle Rock to raise money in support of their efforts to save lives by reducing the ever-growing list of people awaiting a life-saving transplant. Team Transplant, which includes transplant recipients, living donors and friends, families and supporters of the foundation’s work among its more than 90 riders, has raised nearly $500,000 for the foundation over those seven years. That amount is more than 90 percent of the organization’s fundraising goals. “Team Transplant and the foundation are among our most enthusiastic riders every year,” Harris said. “They bring positive energy, a growing team of riders of all ages, awareness of an important cause, and an additional opportunity for us to give back to our community. We’re always thrilled to have them join us in Castle Rock.” This year, the foundation is celebrating its 10th anniversary and once again Team Transplant will be a key part of the Subaru Elephant Rock Cycling Festival. “This non-traditional, but incred-

ACC gets artsy with 2016 Progenitor Publication shows off cultural side of community college By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com
“Vortex,” a photograph of a Koshare Indian Dancer at La Junta, abstracted, by student John Whatley, is included in the 2016 edition of “Progenitor.” (A Whatley photograph was also in the 2015 “Progenitor.”) Photo courtesy of the artist
A bright blue dragonfly on the front cover invites. On the embossed inside front cover the reader finds two definitions for Progenitor: “1. A person or thing from which a person, plant or animal is descended or originates: an ancestor or parent. 2. A person who originates an artistic, political or intellectual movement.” ACC’s award-winning annual art and literary magazine, Progenitor, is published for 2016 and free copies are available in the library and elsewhere at the college and online. It’s produced by the English 231 Literary Magazine class and the Multimedia and Graphic Design Internship course, MDG 280, at Arapahoe Community College. Students have a start-to-finish experience in editing, designing and publishing a classy product.
Creative editor Tasha Estein began a May 3 Progenitor introduction event with words about the dragonfly cover design and how it carries throughout the book, flitting from page to page, carrying the words. Graphic artist Melissa Renae Hall is the designer. Dragonflies appear in art and myth around the world. A number of writers spoke and read from their included works, each introduced by the appropriate proud editor, then several included artists were introduced as well — Chris Plummer was introduced by fiction editor Joan Hobbs. He read from his short story “Hourglass,” about cleaning up in a deceased uncle’s house and finding the unexpected. Nonfiction editor Kenzie Roberts presented Annie Gross, Barbara Hobbs and Petra Perkins of Highlands Ranch, who read from her award-winning “I Know Astronauts,” which she said was about her daughter. Poetry editor Ahja Fox had three poets read, including awardwinner Alana Story with a story poem that reflects what many mothers have
experienced: trying to save an injured songbird with a child. Brandon Kile, art and photography editor, introduced four included artists, ending with ACC honored student John Whatley, who told a story about his “Vortex.” He attended a Koshare dance program in La Junta last year and photographed a Fire Dance, then reworked it until it became an abstracted swirl — drawing the viewer inward. Ceramics artist Judith Snyder said her award-winning “Kismet” speaks of “destiny, eternity and connectivity among individuals.” (She also praised the quality of ACC’s art and design departments.) Co-editors Brandon Kile and Cecelia Lee closed the program: On the last page of the magazine, writers and artists will find instructions for submitting work for the 2017 edition of Progenitor as well as information about entry in the ACC Writer’s Studio Literary Contest, where many of these pieces started out. (Firstplace winners are guaranteed a spot in Progenitor.)

Dance company to play Lone Tree
Zikr troupe has ballet artists, classically trained performers
By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com The Zikr Dance Company will appear at Lakewood Cultural Center June 4 and 5 and at Lone Tree Arts Center June 11 and 12 in a program called “Samsara,” which will premiere a new work by artistic director David Taylor and reprise some of the company’s earlier pieces. The company’s roster includes five dancers from Colorado Ballet and eight other classically trained local dancers. The first half of the program will premiere a new duet, “Altar,” featuring Kurtis Irwin and Ryan Lee, accompanied by an original score by Boulder musician composer
Jesse Manno (who wrote music for Taylor’s popular “Rainforest” score in 1995.) Also in the first half is “Sadhu.” Taylor explained that “Sadhu” is a religious ascetic, usually Hindu or Buddhist, and the ballet is set to exciting music by Philip Glass. “In Your Eyes,” an audience favorite, will also be performed. Taylor said “Samsara” is a Sanskrit word that means the cycle of birth, death and reincarnation, a prevalent concept in Eastern religious traditions. The new ballet, which fills the second half of the production, focuses on this idea, set to the progressive art/rock music of Yes. It includes dancers ascending and descending onstage on fly lines and is also accompanied by special effects created by University of Colorado-Denver professor Bryan Leister. These will include “projection mapping” effects, generated

SCFD renewal will be on November ballot Sales tax helps fund 275 cultural organizations
By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com On April 29, Gov. John Hickenlooper signed legislation needed to put renewal of the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District (SCFD) on the November 2016 ballot, with bipartisan support in both the Colorado Senate and House of Representatives. Legislative sponsors included Senate President Bill Cadman (R-Colorado Springs) and Sen. Pat Steadman (D-Denver), House Speaker Dickey Lee Hulling-
horst (D-Boulder) and Assistant House Minority Leader Rep. Polly Lawrence (R-Douglas County). The SCFD Board of Directors, chaired by Arapahoe County’s representative Dan Hopkins, will now refer the renewal measure to the ballot in each of the seven metro-area counties involved: Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Broomfield, Denver, Douglas (except for Castle Rock and Larkspur, where voters opted out) and Jefferson. Denver metro-area voters created the SCFD in 1988 and have renewed it in 1994 and 2004. An affirmative vote in 2016 would renew it for 12 years and shift percentages of distribution between the

three tiers of cultural organizations, which total 275. Funds distributed come from a tax of one cent on a $10 sale — a total of $52 million in 2014. Overall, the available amount is expected to increase as population grows. Percentages would be reallocated among the organizations, increasing distribution to Tiers Two and Three and decreasing the percentage for Tier One, the largest Denver organizations. The number of SCFD organizations has doubled since 1988. According to the SCFD, this collection
of cultural organizations contributed more than $1.8 billion into the regional economy and employed more than 10,000 people. More than 14 million people — 4 million of them kids — attend SCFD-funded programs each year. A few examples in Arapahoe and Douglas counties: Arapahoe Philharmonic, Lone Tree and Parker symphony orchestras, Lone Tree Arts Center, PACE Center, Town Hall Arts Center, Highlands Ranch Concert Band, Young Voices of Colorado, Performance Now Theatre Company.

Mountain Vista, Valor make finals By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Mountain Vista made its third consecutive appearance in the Class 5A soccer semifinals May 21 at Sports Authority Stadium, and the Golden
Eagles knew the importance of a good start. The Golden Eagles led 3-0 at halftime and survived a Columbine flurry early in the second half to notch a 4-1 victory, which sent Vista into the state finals for the first time since winning
the championship in 2013. “It was really importance to get off to a quick start,” said junior Katie Joella. “We knew we needed to put the game away at the beginning and assure ourselves that we would move on because Columbine was such a strong
team. They have great forwards and they get big time goals so it was great to have that lead.” Sixth-seeded Mountain Vista (15-31) was scheduled to play top-seeded Soccer continues on Page 24

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com A pitching staff can be tested in the state baseball playoffs when teams play three games in two days. Cherry Creek and Centennial League rival Cherokee Trail were unbeaten teams playing in their third game May 21 in the double-elimination Class 5A state tournament at All-City Stadium in Denver. Cherokee Trail held on for a 10-8 victory and will head into May 27 action without a loss. The Cougars are assured of playing in the championship game and will take on once-beaten Mullen in noon contest at All-City Stadium. Cherry Creek and Rocky Mountain play in a 2:30 p.m. elimination game May 27 at All-City. First game on May 28 is set for 10 a.m. with a second, game, if necessary, scheduled for 12:30 p.m. “No question, Cherokee Trail has the advantage,” said Creek coach Marc Johnson. “You have to understand, they have to play well. If they win Friday (May 27), they are in great shape. If they lose, they are no different than anybody else but they get to wait for that extra game (on May 28). “I’ve seen some unbeaten teams get beat but Cherokee Trail could win it all.” Last season, Chatfield entered the final weekend unbeaten but Rock Canyon won the championship. In 2014, Niwot was unbeaten but Green Mountain captured the Class 4A state title. Valor Christian lost 9-6 to Pueblo West in a Class 4A game between unbeaten teams May 21 at All-Star Park in Lakewood. The Eagles will go against Erie in a noon elimination game May 27 at All-Star Park with Pueblo West playing Windsor at 2:30 p.m. May 28 games will be at 10 a.m. and 12:30 if necessary. Pitching staffs will be rested heading in the second weekend of the tournament but a team with one loss could play three games and pitch limits and seldom-used pitchers will come into play, especially late the late innings. In the CreekCherokee Trail game, the Bruins scored three runs in the top of the first inning and had six singles in 1 1/3 innings. However, Cougars starter Keven MacKintosh didn’t Marc Johnson, allow another hit beCherry Creek fore exiting the game after six innings with baseball coach a 10-3 lead. Cherry Creek scored five times in the top of the seventh against three Cougar relievers and had one runner thrown out at the plate. The Bruins had the bases loaded when Johnathon Dorman induced a pop out to end the game. “They outpitched us, they outhit us and they out defended us,” Johnson said. “They had a tough seventh inning where they walked a few people. If I hadn’t sent the guy and got him thrown out at home it would have been 10-9 but we still would have got beat.” Valor Christian and Pueblo West were tied 5-5 but the Cyclones used four hits and two walks in the top of the seventh to score four runs to hand the Eagles their first loss of the tournament. In other 5A playoff games, ThunderRidge lost its first two games. Cherry Creek beat the Grizzlies, 6-3 on May 20. Ralston Valley ousted the 2013 champs with a 5-2 win. Ralston Valley lost to Grandview, 10-4, before beating ThunderRidge. Rocky Mountain eliminated the Mustangs with a 7-3 win on May 21.

By Jim Benton jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Mountain Vista boys lacrosse coach Jamie Munro waited patiently 10 minutes after the Golden Eagles’ 9-8 state playoff semifinal loss to Arapahoe for players to join the rest of the team in the Legacy Stadium dressing room. Most players on the way lined up to hug Erin Herman, the wife of former coach Jake Herman, who died in January. Then after a team meeting, more players hugged Herman and her two children, Pauly and Tobi, as they departed. A season that began with high hopes was over after Mountain Vista surrendered a 4-1 halftime lead during the physical May 18 game. Third-period penalties played a large role. Three of Arapahoe’s six third-period tallies were manadvantage goals but Vista twice overcame two-goal deficits and had a chance to tie the game in the closing seconds but a pass to an open attacker in front of the net didn’t connect. “All the credit to Arapahoe,” said Munro, a former assistant
who assumed the head coaching duties after Herman’s death. “They had a game plan. It was a good game plan. They executed really well. Everything that needed to happen for them did. My hat is off to them.” Mountain Vista, the No. 2 seed in the state playoffs, finished with a 16-2 record, with one of the wins having come

Joella made sure the Golden Eagles forced Columbine to play catch-up with two goals in the first 17 minutes of the game. “Our team had great momentum going into the first half,” Joella said. “It was great when I saw the ball get past that defender. I saw my chance to score and it happened twice.” Maisie Paulson made it 3-0 before the first half ended but Columbine swarmed around the Golden Eagles net early in the second half and cut the

deficit to 3-1 with a goal in the 66th minute. Taeya Schueppert’s goal on a rebound eased the pressure eight minutes later to boost Vista into a 4-1 lead. “That was an important goal,” Joella said. “They definitely had a lot of momentum in the second half. That goal turned the tide.” Vista coach Theresa Echtermeyer is pleased by how her team has performed in the playoffs. “The girls have been on the rise at the right time,” she said. Meanwhile, Valor Christian won its eighth straight game, a 2-0 Class 4A semifinal shutout over Windsor in the Class 4A playoffs May 21. The seventhseeded Eagles faced top-seeded LewisPalmer in the May 25 state championship game at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. Results of the game were not available at press time.
In the girls Class 5A division, Rock Canyon finished 12th with 25 points. Emily Sloan helped her team’s point total with first place finishes in the 100-meter hurdles and the 300-meter hurdles. The ThunderRidge squad finished 19th with 17 points. Three of the Grizzlies relay teams earned medals and the best finish was the 4x800-meter relay team.
guys. It’s not like they choked against Arapahoe. They played very well. Sometimes you need to get some breaks. We didn’t get many. We might of have had two. That’s how it goes sometimes. That’s why you play the game.” Mountain Vista has a 46-7 record over the past three seasons and three of those setbacks
have come in the playoffs. The Golden Eagles lost in the quarterfinals in 2014 and in the semifinals the past two years. “It’s not like we’ve been at it that long,” Jamie Munro said. “This is the first time we didn’t make another step. But it was a step because we had a higher seed. We played well. It just always doesn’t work out.”

Castle View finished 22nd with 14 points. Sierra Suazo posted the team’s highest finish with a fourth place in the discus. Leila Vigil finished second in shot put and the points she earned helped the Highlands Ranch team finish 25th. Douglas County finished 34th and Mountain Vista was 37th. The Valor girls joined forces to win the
4x100 and the 4x200 relays to add points to the team total as the Eagles finished fourth in the Class 4A team standings with 54 points. The Eagles boys team finished eighth Class 4A teams.

New baseball rule not pitch perfect
It was a needed move when a pitchcount limit was implemented this season for Colorado High School Activities Association baseball games to limit damage to young arms. However, CHSAA needs to find a way not to be caught looking by keeping coaches in both dugouts informed of “official” pitch counts, especially in state playoff games when pitching staffs could be overworked with teams playing three games in two days. An unfortunate situation could have unfolded in the Cherokee Trail-Cherry Creek playoff game May 21 at All-City Stadium in Denver. Cherokee Trail pitcher Keven MacKintosh approached the pitch limit in the sixth inning. As he prepared to face his final batter, a person in charge of keeping the tally in the press box already had him having thrown the maximum 110 pitches. An individual was sent to inform the Cherokee Trail coaches, but they had their player with only 109 pitches. MacKintosh pitched to the final batter of the inning, got the out and his team went on to win, 10-8. During a post-game discussion, it was revealed the Cherry Creek pitch count had MacKintosh already over the limit before facing his final batter. During the game, Creek did not make an issue of it, and an on-scene CHSAA official wasn’t going to argue over one pitch. A violation discovered during the game could have resulted in a forfeit, but with the game in the books, the score will stand. When there are three different pitch counts, something needs to be done to enforce the rule. The person keeping count in the press box May 21 had the official tally, according to a CHSAA official. Douglas County High School has a portable scoreboard that can be mounted above the dugout to keep both teams and fans informed of pitch counts. That’s an easy way to maybe solve disputes before the sixth or seventh inning. Or maybe a “visible” official appointed by CHSAA
should inform both teams of pitch counts inning-by-inning, especially when a pitcher is nearing the limit. Both Cherokee Trail and Cherry Creek remain alive in the double-elimination tournament, Jim Benton which resumes play May 27. Bert BorgOVERTIME mann, CHSAA assistant commissioner, said the rules will be reviewed before then, with the aim of having a better solution before a champion is crowned. An Olympic preview Colorado soccer fans have a chance to see the U.S. Women’s National team before the Rio de Janeiro Summer Olympics. The 25-player roster for the sold-out June 2 friendly match against Japan at Dick’s Sporting Good Park in Commerce City includes Mallory Pugh of Highlands Ranch, Linsey Horan of Golden and Denver’s Jaelene Hinkle. Coach Jill Ellis must trim the roster to 18 players for the Olympics. Pugh, the 18-year-old who just graduated from Mountain Vista, became the youngest player at age 17 to make the national team roster in 11 years last January. She scored in a Jan. 23 match against Ireland, making her the 19th U.S. female player to score in her debut. She played for Real Colorado and is the captain of the team that will compete at the 2016 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Papua New Guinea in November. Horan, 22, went to Golden High School but didn’t play soccer. She played club soccer for the Colorado Rush and became the first female soccer player in U.S. history to sign a professional contact after her high school graduation with Paris SaintGermain. She was one of the top U.S.
for a Castle View team that finished 10-7-0 for the season. She also was a defender on the United States U-18 Women’s National team that traveled to Spain for a La Manga Tournament in March. She has a 3.98 grade point average and will play next season at Clemson. Mackin’s name is added to the list of previous Colorado Gatorade Soccer Players of the Year that includes Mountain Vista’s Mallory Pugh (2014-15), Kaycie Young of Rock Canyon (2013-14), Mountain Vista’s Gabbi Miranda (2012-13), Janine Beckie of Valor Christian (2011-12) and Annie Kunz of Wheat Ridge (2010-11 and 2009-10).

She played club soccer for Real Colorado and last October was called up to the national team for a friendly match against Brazil during the team’s victory tour after winning the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup. She has international experience on U.S. youth national teams. Gatorade honors Sabercat Castle View senior Julie Mackin is the 2015-16 Colorado Gatorade Soccer Player of the Year.

Ninety players will make up the East and West teams and finalists will be announced next fall.
Brookhart lands new job Mike Brookhart, who was looking for a new challenge when he announced that 2015-16 season would be his last as Cherry Creek’s boys basketball coach, is the new head coach for the Denver West Cowboys. One of his assistant coaches will be former Manual and St. John’s standout Chucky Sproling. In a 1988 game against North, Sproling scored a Colorado record 74 points. And those points came before the 3-point shot was introduced. Jim Benton is a sports writer for Colorado Community Media. He has been covering sports in the Denver area since 1968.

Lacrosse Continued from Page 1
Grant removed any evidence of last season’s state runner-up finish and the high expectations for this year. It worked as the Eagles beat top-seeded Dawson in a game that was tied eight times until freshman Lance Tillman and goalie Logan Lee, who just returned to action after having his appendix removed, stepped up in the final minutes. With the game tied 9-9, Tillman stuck his stick in the air in front of Dawson goalie Chad Dunnell, who was attempting to make an outlet pass. Tillman intercepted the pass with 2:12 left in the game and scored to give Valor a 10-9 lead. “I didn’t see it,” said Grant Jr. “I was so upset with the turnover, I threw my hat on the ground in frustration and when I went to pick it up they were all hugging me and saying we scored. I’m sure he picked the pass off and put it in the empty net.” Tillman conceded he was lucky. “I just stuck my stick up there, trying to get in the goalie’s way,” he said. “I got lucky and put it back in the net. You don’t usually do that. I just decided to do it. There’s nothing more to say. We played great. It was an exciting game.” But securing the win still required a couple key saves in the final two minutes by Lee, who finished with eight saves. “He was huge,” Grant said of Lee. “He was in the hospital getting surgery two weeks ago. He got cleared on Tuesday. They took his appendix but didn’t take his heart. I give a lot of credit to our goalie. He kept the state’s highest scoring offense at bay.” Lee, a sophomore, was feeling well on May 20 and helped the Eagles beat a Dawson team that averaged 17 goals a game.
The Valor Christian boys lacrosse team celebrates their 10-9 4A state final victory over Alexander Dawson School of Lafayette and shows off their new banner and trophy. Photos by Paul DiSalvo “That was crazy at the end of the game,” Lee said. “I had a feeling. It was just reactions, don’t even think about it. I didn’t play the last game Wednesday (May 18) until the fourth quarter. Then I started to get it back. This whole game for me getting it back but by the end I knew I was ready. I was feeling good, a lot better.” Tillman had three goals against Dawson in the title game. Senior Cole Baker scored twice, including the goal that tied the game with 5:39 remaining in the game. Valor wound up the season with six players scoring more than 20 goals and six having more than 30 points. Tillman led the way with 29 goals and 69 points, which included 40 assists. Junior Gianni Orlando had 28 goals and 46 points. Valor finished the season with a 15-4 record and has gone 33-5-0 in the past two seasons under Grant. Dawson wound up with a 17-2 record.
Alexander Dawson School’s Aidan Abram, right, tries to cut off Valor Christian’s Lance Tillman. The Mustangs and Eagles battled back and forth all night but Valor Christian came up with the 10-9 victory to take the Class 4A state title.
Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF MAY 23, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Home conditions still demand attention. Also, keep an open mind about a sudden question of trust involving a close friend. All the facts are not yet in. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) With summer just around the corner, travel begins to dominate your sign. Make plans carefully to avoid potential problems in the first half of June. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A romantic Libra sets a challenge that your “sensible” side might question, but your idealistic self finds the prospect too intriguing to resist. The choice is yours. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Those tense times in your personal life are just about over. Concentrate on reaffirming relationships. Your love of travel opens a surprising new opportunity. LEO (July 23 to August 22) The Big Cat usually loves to be in the center of things. But this week it might be wiser to watch and learn from the sidelines. A Pisces wants to make you purr. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) “New” is your watchword this week. Be open to new ideas, both on the job and in your personal life. A romantic Aries or Sagittarian beckons. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Some difficult family decisions have to be faced, but be sure to get more facts before you act. Be careful not to neglect your health during this trying time.
TO SOLVE SUDOKU: Numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) You still need to support a loved one through a difficult time. Meanwhile, things continue to work out to your benefit in the workplace.
© 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Aspects continue to favor expanding social opportunities. A Gemini reaches out to offer a chance for re-establishing a once-close relationship. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) There’s a potential for misunderstanding in both your job and your personal life. A full explanation of your intentions helps smooth things over.
Answers
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) You might be feeling restless on the job, but delay making any major moves until all the facts are in. A Scorpio has a surprising revelation. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Your business sense works to your advantage as you sort through the possibilities that are opening up. A Libra is Cupid’s best bet for your romantic prospects. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a gift for being open-minded about people. This helps you make friends easily. You would do very well in public service. (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.

Ambassador of the Month: Cheryl Chiasson Name of Business: Instant Imprints – South Metro and Commercial Funding Source Title: Co - Owner at Instant Imprints and Managing Partner Commercial Funding Source Website: www.instantimprints.com/centers/southmetro & www.bizlendingsource.com How long have you been/owned this company: Instant Imprints: 3 years; Commercial Funding Source: 2 years What is the mission/vision of your company? Instant Imprints: We are committed to providing creative solutions to help our customers be more visible to their customers. We create that visibility five different ways: Branded Apparel (embroidery), Signs & Banners, Promotional Products, Custom T-Shirts, and Print Services. Commercial Funding Source - To educate and provide creative financing solutions to help businesses and real estate investors thrive and grow. Many business owners and real estate investors are not aware of the multiple options for funding their venture. What makes your company stand out? Instant Imprints - Our services touch every industry and we have the experience to turn your idea or vision into a reality. Rather than offering a one-size fits all service, our approach creates programs that cater to your particular
industry and audience. As small business owners ourselves, we understand the needs of our customers. Commercial Funding Source - We specialize in developing personalized commercial finance options for our clients, and take the time to understand the needs of each client and their diverse goals. What do you like most about your job? Instant Imprints - Providing the tools for fellow business owners to market their business, and providing “identify” to sport teams, clubs, all kinds of groups. Making a difference is part of our DNA. Commercial Funding Source - Learning the stories behind the business owners and real estate investors that we serve. I genuinely enjoy learning about my customers -- where they’ve come from and where they’re headed. You might hear me say “everyone has a story; I’d like to hear yours.” Do you have hobbies, interests, family, etc. that you would like people to know about? Yes - laughing is my favorite hobby! You can then add reading (my list of “want to read” is longer than my lifespan, I think!), biking, and just being outdoors. Outside of business my husband Gregg and I have a heart for people and serving our community and do so in a number of ways. We’re happy that our two grown sons have chosen to be giving adults as well. Kyle lives in Walla Walla, WA and manages Commercial Funding Source Walla Walla. Our son Sean is the Executive Director of Mountain Leadership Institute in Portland, OR. What do you like most about being an Ambassador for the Chamber? People! Meeting other business owners and finding ways to help them in business as well as navigate the Chamber opportunities. It’s all about the people!
