County’s homeless have new shelter option Church network will house women and children during cold months

By Jessica Gibbs jgibbs@coloradocommunitymedia.com For Nicole Bell, 32, a kitchen table has real significance.

The homeless mother of five has

been living in a Lone Tree hotel for more than two years. For the sake of space and efficient parenting, her two oldest children live with their father in Castle Rock.

Today, Bell struggles to remember the last time she could sit her children down at their own kitchen table for dinner.

“I’ve been homeless and poor for so long ...,” she said. “I hate it and I’m trying so hard to get out of that.”

A new hope This winter, Bell and families like hers will have a new safety net.

As part of the inaugural Winter Weather Shelter program, eight Douglas County churches have committed to act as shelters for Douglas County’s homeless women and children, opening their doors each night of the week from Nov. 1 through March 31.

Men will be provided assistance such as hotel vouchers, but churches are un-

able to house men, women and children together for purposes of safety and privacy, program officials said.

Nicole DeVries, an outreach director with Southeast Christian Church in Parker, said program organizers identified single women and their children as some of the greatest in need, based on the percentage they make up of Douglas County’s homeless population.

‘People’s moods this year are very different’ Unpopular candidates and a polarized electorate typify 2016 presidential race

By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Dorothy Dhooge, 82, has watched a lot of election cycles come and go, but this year’s presidential race may be the most divisive she’s seen.

Dhooge, an Arapahoe County resident, said the tension has caused her to avoid talking politics with some of her own family members.

“We steer clear of it,” she said, adding that she thinks the divisions run beyond just her own family. “I think it’s split people in the country.”

Improvements planned for Backcountry HRCA seeking input for amenities on open land

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunity The Highlands Ranch Community Association is planning for improvements in the Backcountry Wilderness Area, a stretch of 8,200 acres of open land southwest of the community. The potential improvements — which include a covered pavilion, ropes course, horse facility,

archery range and additional trails — will make up approximately 20 acres.

“These are preliminary plans,” Backcountry Wilderness Area Director Mark Giebel said at a Backcountry Q&A session at Westridge Recreation Center on Oct. 6. “We are drawing bubbles on a map — the next step will be drawing buildings on a map.”

The Backcountry Planning Areas Committee, a group of six volunteers who evaluated information from community surveys on the land in years past, presented the recommendations

last year to the HRCA Board of Directors and delegates, who represent Highlands Ranch neighborhoods.

The HRCA is now developing a conceptual plan, which includes choosing one of five locations in the Backcountry.

A bylaw states that the project must have approval from delegates.

Delegate Jim Allen, also on the Backcountry Planning Areas, said more people should be familiar with what is in the Backcountry.

NEWS IN A HURRY A glimpse of the people in our community

BRENDA MCNULTY Dental consultant, Young Marines volunteer About me I graduated from Ponderosa High School in Parker. I am a dental business consultant so I travel around the nation teaching dentists to work smarter, not harder.

I was married to a Marine for 19 years and now I’m married to a Navy veteran. All three of my sons are in the Marines. I have brothers, sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews who are in the Navy — we are a big Navy family.

I’ve always had a passion for veterans and giving back to those who have made sacrifices for our country.

Giving back I have been volunteering since 2002 in a program called the Young Marines — a national non-profit youth organization for drug demand reduction through teamwork and discipline. It’s for boys and girls — similar to Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts but it’s structured a little differently.

It’s a really neat organization. I got my boys involved during my husband’s first deployment as a way to understand what my husband was going through and to help me during that time.

In 2006, the Young Marine National Headquarters contacted me and asked me if I would accompany them to Mount Suribachi in Japan.

While I was there, I met four Navajo Code Talkers from WWII. National Navajo Code Talkers Day is Aug. 14 and there is a get-together in Window Rock, Arizona. The Young Marines have been invited every year since 2006 to participate. My goal is to make it bigger each year.

We always bring gift bags for the Navajo Code Talkers with a bunch of goodies from the Young Marines. We enjoy it. It’s kind of like our Christ-

mas — spending time with these men that we only see once a year.

A proud mother I have a 25-year-old and 23-year-old and 21-year-old. They are all in the military so they’ve been scattered around. My oldest son is at the Police Academy in Parker. My middle son, after being a Navy Corpsman, is going to nursing school at Metro State in Denver. My youngest son is still in the military and he’s stationed at Miramar in Southern California.

I’m a mother filled with pride. They want to serve the community. I couldn’t be more proud of my family.

Mountain Vista suspects’ court cases move forward

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunity Ten months after her arrest for allegedly making a violent threat against Mountain Vista High School last December, a District Court judge on Oct. 5 set a date later this month to schedule court proceedings against one of the two female students involved in the case.

Brooke Higgins, now 17, was not present in the Douglas County courtroom Oct. 5.

Defense attorneys Iris Eytan and Kathleen Mcguire represented Higgins, whose parents were in the room.

After discussion between the prosecution team and the defense counsel, Judge Paul King scheduled a status hearing for Oct. 18, at which dates for further court proceedings will be set. Those proceedings include a hearing to transfer Higgins’ case from adult to juvenile court, a preliminary hearing and a bond hearing.

Eytan emphasized moving forward quickly, noting that 10 months is a long time for the teen to be held in a juvenile detention center.

“Ten months is 10 months too long,” she said, adding that Higgins’ parents have visited her almost every day.

Higgins and Sienna Johnson were arrested after a student reported through TextA-Tip to the Douglas County Sherriff’s Office a threat to harm Mountain Vista students and staff during the week of Dec. 14.

Johnson will appear in court Oct. 21.

Johnson and Higgins, both sophomores at the time of arrest, were charged in January as adults with conspiracy to commit first-degree murder with extreme indifference and conspiracy to commit first-degree murder after deliberation.

The prosecution team said Johnson was a threat to herself and the community because of a detailed map she created in her journal that allegedly outlined where the largest number of students would be at certain times of the school day. Prosecutors also said Johnson purchased a BB gun to

practice shooting and attempted to purchase weapons.

Higgins wrote in her journal that she wished she could have taken part in the 1999 Columbine High School shootings, prosecutors said. She searched websites to explore the possibility of purchasing guns, and phone records revealed texts warning a friend to leave the high school when told, according to prosecutors.

After several court hearings, petitions were filed on behalf of both girls to the Colorado Supreme Court, arguing the use of psychological exams. The cases had been on hold since March. But the Colorado Supreme Court released a ruling on Oct. 8, in which it agreed with Johnson’s petition and declined to answer to Higgins’.

Higgins’ petition stated that the district court erred in declining to suppress a psychological examination conducted in accordance with a magistrate’s order.

The Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling did not answer Higgins’ request, calling it hypothetical and stating that Higgins consented to a psychological evaluation while represented by counsel. That counsel, including attorney Dagny Van Der Jagt, no longer represents Higgins.

Johnson’s petition argued the district court erred in determining that Johnson waived all privileges to her mental health records when she disputed adult court and requested a transfer to juvenile court. Her petition also said the district court erred in requiring Johnson to submit to a psychological examination by a state doctor.

The Colorado Supreme Court sided with Johnson, stating her request for a reverse transfer hearing did not constitute a waiver of her privilege. The reverse transfer statute only requires that the trial court consider mental health records “made available,” the ruling said.

The Supreme Court also agreed with Johnson in that the trial court lacked authority to order her to submit to a stateadministered mental health evaluation because of her juvenile status.

Rachael Goldstein and Morgan Miller, seniors at Mountain Vista High School, hope to pursue careers as teachers.

Photos by Mike DiFerdinando

Mark Newton, a journalism teacher at Mountain Vista High School in Highlands Ranch, created an innovative scholarship program for students who want to teach.

Scholarship program helps future teachers Educators at Mountain Vista will donate $1 for each year they have taught

By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com Morgan Miller, a senior at Mountain Vista High School, has hopes of becoming a special education teacher one day.

“Since I was about 10 years old, I have been volunteering and working in classrooms with students who have disabilities,” Miller said. “So it’s been a passion of mine.”

Mountain Vista journalism teacher Mark Newton has come up with a way to help students like Miller, who want to be teachers, achieve those goals.

Under Newton’s plan, each teacher at the school would contribute $1 to the scholarship for each year they have

taught.

“It really came from this discussion I’ve been having with my students about why we do what we do,” Newton said. “The idea became ‘If it’s so important, why aren’t we personally articulating what we really believe in?’ Let’s really walk the walk and talk the talk.”

The idea has already spread quickly, and even former teachers and community members are asking to donate, Newton said. Dozens of teachers at the school have already contributed.

The guidelines to apply and specific scholarship amounts are still to be determined, but Newton said the first scholarships would be given to seniors at the end of this school year.

Principal Mike Weaver, who spent 17 years as a classroom teacher, said he has also heard interest from other schools in the district that want to emulate the program.

VOTE

“Mark came to me with the idea and I immediately thought it was great,” Weaver said. “It’s going to compound pretty quickly based on a few of us who have been around for a while.”

When teachers see students who show an interest in the profession, Newton said they have an obligation to encourage them to pursue the path.

“When your see someone really good with kids, and you see someone with a really good heart who wants to do what you’re doing, it’s awesome,” Newton said.

“It makes you feel like your job is worthy of everything that sometimes makes it hard.”

Since 2010, the number of teachers, principals and education service providers completing programs at Colorado colleges and universities has declined 23 percent, according to a 2016 report by the Colorado Department of Higher Education.

The number of students enrolling in education programs at colleges and universities also has dropped by 24 percent, according to the report.

Rachael Goldstein, a Mountain Vista senior, wants to teach elementary school one day.

“I just have a passion for children,” Goldstein said. “Through babysitting and some teaching internships, I just know that I have a passion for kids. I love them a lot, so why not make it a career? I’ve had teachers that have inspired me and I want to be as good as them (and) inspire other people.”

Goldstein and Miller are excited about the new scholarship and plan to apply.

“It’s amazing,” Goldstein said. “Teaching isn’t looked at the same way as being a doctor or a lawyer. I think teaching is really undervalued in our society, and for them to acknowledge that and make a scholarship for it, is a really great idea.”

Workout studio hosts class for breast cancer awareness Proceeds benefit Stamped with Love, a glamsquad to help women feel beautiful again

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunity Valerie Franklin lost her cousin to breast cancer in 2008. A year later, she lost her aunt to the disease.

To honor her family members, the Highlands Ranch resident started Stamped With Love, a group of photographers and makeup artists who provide their services for free to those battling breast cancer and breast cancer survivors.

“It’s our celebration day — that’s what we call it,” Franklin said. “It’s an opportunity for them to forget about everything they are going through.”

Franklin, a Realtor and former wedding photographer, hosts the special event in her basement, where she has a photography studio. She invites three to four women at a time so they can share their experiences while getting pampered for a photo shoot.

“Not only is it makeup and hair,” she said, “it’s something that these women can take with them to remember that day.”

Her goal, her website says, is to make women affected by breast cancer feel beautiful again.

Stephanie Foster, a five-year survivor, had a photo shoot about a year ago with three other women, who are also longtime friends of hers. They went to Franklin’s house, had breakfast, drank champagne and talked. Foster, who has straight hair, had her hair curled and her makeup done.

“It was a way to get our mind off the things we had been through,” said Foster, a Highlands Ranch resident. “It’s a time when you don’t have to worry about breast cancer.”

A Highlands Ranch workout studio is raising money so more people, like Foster, can have a carefree day of pampering.

April Norris owns the women’s fitness studio called Xtend Barre. Every October — National Breast Cancer Awareness Month — she holds a fundraising event called Plié for Pink. Plié is a ballet movement, which is fitting for the ballet- and Pilates-based studio.

Each year, funds from Plié for Pink go to a person or organization touched by the disease. Last year, Norris raised about $400 for a Highlands Ranch woman whose mother needed a double mastectomy, a procedure in which a doctor removes both breasts to remove as much of the cancer as possible.

When she was choosing a person

Ladies show off their ballet moves in a previous Plie for Pink class, hosted annually to raise funds for a breast cancer organization.

Funds from this year’s event, at 9:45 a.m. on Oct. 15, will go toward a local breast cancer awareness organization, Stamped With Love.

Courtesy photo or organization to donate to this year, Norris thought of Franklin. The two have been friends for a couple of years.

Norris will donate all funds from her Oct. 15 Plié for Pink event to Stamped With Love.

“We want to be able to touch a personal life,” said Norris, who lost her aunt to breast cancer.

Plié for Pink will be at 9:45 a.m. Oct. 15 at the Xtend Barre studio, 3620 E. Highlands Ranch Parkway. Norris asks that guests register before the class online at www.xtendbarre.com/studio/ highlands-ranch or by phone at 303791-2100. The cost is $20 per person.

Norris will be accepting donations, from members and nonmembers, through the month of October. She also encourages guests to sport the color pink to the class.

Her studio, she said, is a positive environment for women.

“This is a place of friendship, challenge and change,” Norris said. “We challenge people to do things they don’t normally do — physically and in the community.”

Wounded detective released from Parker Adventist Dan Brite, shot by a suspect in September, was transferred to Craig Hospital

By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Detective Dan Brite of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, who was shot by a suspect in early September, was discharged from Parker Adventist Hospital on Oct. 6. and transferred to Craig Hospital in Englewood for continued rehabilitation. He was escorted by sheriff’s deputies.

Parker Adventist staff lined hospital hallways with T-shirts bearing the slogan “Heroes Need Heroes,” and Brite’s fellow officers from the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office and the Parker Police Department lined a segment of westbound E-470 in dress uniforms.

Brite was wounded in a Sept. 2 shootout with suspect Randall Rodick outside Rodick’s home in unincorporated Douglas County at the intersection of North Dixon

Drive and East lookout Drive. Brite and other officers were responding to a call from Rodick’s wife that he was “suicidal” and armed. A bullet entered Brite’s chest and he was taken immediately to Parker Adventist, only four minutes away from the scene. Rodick was later fatally shot by a responding officer.

“Words cannot begin to express the gratitude and deep appreciation we have for our family, friends, Brite community, our brothers and sisters in blue, and the entire team at Parker Adventist Hospital,” Brite and his wife Christine said in a written statement.

“Our lives were forever changed on September 2, and since then we have seen goodness, kindness and love in ways we never could have imagined. The outpouring of support, donations, and prayers have tremendously helped us through this difficult time. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your continued prayers and encouragement.”

MORE ON STAMPED WITH LOVE Valerie Franklin, executive director and photographer of Stamped With Love, usually hosts about 15 to 20 photo shoots per year. Services last up to two hours and include professional makeup and hairstyling and a photo shoot with three to five wardrobe changes. Guests leave

with a personal collage of up to 10 photos and a CD with 75-100 photos. She accepts referrals from those who know someone with breast cancer or a breast cancer survivor.

It is best performed on light, untanned skin. Brown spots will initially appear darker after treatment and continually lighten over 7-10 days. IPL is best performed as a series, doing one treatment every month for three treatments total. Maintaining your results with a great skin care line like SkinMedica will help to keep you looking fresh and renewed.

Regular cost of IPL for the face is $195.00.

PDL, or Pulsed Dye Laser, uses a concentrated beam of light that targets blood vessels in the skin. Treatment usually takes only a few minutes with no anesthesia required. Most patients with fine facial veins will need 1-3 treatments. Regular cost of PDL is $325.00 for the nose and chin or $425.00 for nose, chin and cheeks.

Screams and giggles fill the Copper Mesa Elementary School lunchroom as students slime Principal Steve Getchell. The Oct. 6 assembly celebrated the school’s Pay It Forward Campaign, during which students raised almost $3,000 for the Cancer League of Colorado. Photos by Alex DeWind

Copper Mesa Elementary School students are asked to raise their hands if they know someone who has battled cancer at an Oct. 6 assembly. As part of the school’s Pay It Forward Campaign, the students raised $2,936.98 for the Cancer League of Colorado.

Students’ pennies add up to thousands Copper Mesa Elementary students pay it forward to help cancer patients

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunity Copper Mesa Elementary School students took more than a few pennies from their piggy banks for this year’s Pay

it Forward Campaign.

Teachers expected students to bring in about $200 total — they ended up collecting more than $2,700.

The campaign was part of the school’s annual Direct Giving Campaign, a three-week fundraiser organized by the Copper Mesa Educational Alliance Parent Teacher Organization, to reduce the number of number of donation requests throughout the year.

DOUGLAS COUNTY

The student campaign was new for the school. Faculty let students pick between three fundraisers and asked them to bring in pennies and change.

Students voted on the Cancer League of Colorado, most likely because of the amount of families touched by cancer, said the school’s principal, Steve Getchell.

The goal was to teach students the importance of paying it forward, said Stacy Hammond, who is on the parent teacher organization and has a fifth grader at Copper Mesa.

“We wanted to get away from being prize-driven,” she said, “and focus more on life skills.”

The school matched the $200 it had expected students to raise, which increased the school’s total donation to the Cancer League of Colorado to $2,932.

“We gave you a goal and you knocked it out of the park,” parent teacher organization president Marcia Nelson told students at an assembly on Oct. 6. “We were blown away.”

Voters say civility has suffered as election nears

Kyle Saunders says she’s right.

“It’s no wonder people feel that there’s a little more hate, it’s no wonder that people feel that society’s a little more on edge,” said Saunders, a political-science professor at Colorado State University since 2004. “It’s because it is.”

‘It’s a strange year’ Joy Hoffman, chair of the Arapahoe County Republican Party, said she’s definitely noticed a more emotional tone to this year’s election.

“People’s moods this year are very different from (what) they’ve been in different years,” she said.

In addition to leading the Arapahoe

By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com A poll conducted by Monmouth University Polling Institute asked respondents about the tone and impacts of this year’s election campaign. The poll was conducted from Sept. 22 to Sept.

25, with a national random sample of 802 registered voters. Interviews were conducted in English, live, over the phone. The breakdown of respondents is as follows: 402 from a list of registered voters (201 landline and 201 cell phone) and 400 using random digit dial (200 landline and 200 cell phone).

Some questions and responses from the survey: County GOP, Hoffman, 60, co-chairs the Arapahoe County Trump campaign.

Donald Trump supporters, she said, are more involved than voters she’s seen in recent years.

“People motivated by Mr. Trump are people who feel like they have been ignored,” she said. “I’m not sure who they feel was ignoring them, but they do feel ignored.”

Hoffman wouldn’t give her own reasons for supporting Trump, but said supporters she talks to are worried about safety and immigration.

“Many people are concerned about their safety,” Hoffman said. “They have a fear of immigration and, whether it’s real or imagined, the illegal activity that comes with it, like human trafficking, drug smuggling and just general crime.”

Hoffman acknowledged some of Trump’s comments are controversial, such as his criticism of Arizona Sen. John McCain’s heroism and of the Khans, a Gold Star family from Virginia whose son, Capt. Humayun Khan, died protecting his platoon in the Iraq War.

Has this year’s presidential campaign brought out the best in people, brought out the worst in people, or has it done neither?

“I’d say the most important issue is the economy because we’re still having sluggish growth since the downturn in 2008. We haven’t fully recovered from that and I think people are still worried about jobs and the fact that incomes haven’t risen at the same rate as inflation. There’s still a lot of fear about out there about that, I think.”

But his statements haven’t fazed volunteers, she said.

“A lot of comments I hear are something like ‘I’m sorry for their loss but they’re a little disingenuous,’ ” she said. “Some people react negatively to what he says and some people applaud it.”

The emotional tone of the campaign is largely a product of people too focused on political correctness and being “thinskinned,” she said.

Hoffman talks politics freely with her campaign co-workers, but said she and her friends steer discussions toward safer topics in social situations, for fear of offending each other.

“It’s a strange year,” she said. “A lot of people don’t want to talk about politics this year. Many people are afraid of the reactions they’ll get.”

‘Pitting people against each other’ Meredith Thatcher, 29, has supported Democrat Hillary Clinton since the day she announced her candidacy for president. The Colorado press secretary for the Clinton campaign likes the former

U.S. senator’s foreign policy experience as Secretary of State and her plans to reform Wall Street.

“She has concrete solutions for these problems,” Thatcher said. “Not just talking points.”

The most common criticisms against Clinton, regarding her use of a private email account and claims she mishandled the attack on the U.S. embassy in Benghazi, have been resolved, Thatcher said.

“The 11 hours of testimony speak for themselves. She answered every question without tiring and without flinching,” Thatcher said. “To keep that story going is certainly a benefit to the Republican side… It’s an attempt to spin old news that’s been pretty well dissected.”

Thatcher, who worked on President Obama’s 2012 campaign, also feels there is a more antagonistic tone this time around. The cause, she said, can be traced back to Trump’s campaign announcement, when he called for a wall to keep out Mexican criminals and “rapists.”

“As the campaign has gone on, the rhetoric has ramped up,” she said. “It Election continues on Page 9

really does seem like an unprecedented level of rhetoric focused on dividing people and pitting people against each other.”

‘Not what we’d heard before’ The chair of the Douglas County Republican Party said people on both sides of the aisle don’t know how to handle a candidate as unconventional as Trump.

“It’s no secret that initially, as he was on the debates, he answered and his rhetoric was not what we’d heard before,” Tanne Blackburn, 72, said. “A lot of people don’t like change. It makes them uncomfortable not knowing what the change is.”

For Blackburn, Trump’s background in business and lack of political experience are bonuses.

“He’s the first absolutely total businessman, not a politician,” she said.

“This whole country needs a different perspective than what we’ve had.”

Trump’s controversial statements — including derogatory comments against women, Muslims and Mexicans — are a result of his unpolished nature, Blackburn said.

“He is not a politician,” she said. “Do I think these statements are good? No. But I’m more concerned with the welfare of our country.”

Robert Blaha, chairman of the Colorado for Trump campaign, also likes his candidate’s businessman’s perspective.

He describes the election as “contentious” rather than “divisive.”

Both candidates have made inappropriate comments, Blaha said, but they are only “one of the things in the mix.”

A bigger cause of the divide, he said, is their different approaches to issues like the economy and immigration.

“There is a lot of emotion about this race,” he said. “When you add that emo-

tion and excitement to the mix, you get a lot of people who are upset on both sides.”

‘My jaw is on my chest’ Centennial resident Laurie Ritchie believes the differences between the two candidates, and their rhetoric, couldn’t be clearer.

“She has been under the media spotlight for 30 to 40 years,” Ritchie said. “If you look at what she’s done — where the rubber meets the road — she has measurable accomplishments. The contrast is amazing. Experience counts.”

Ritchie, a 55-year-old Democrat and small business owner, has volunteered for Democratic campaigns since 2008.

She blames Trump’s comments about immigrants, Muslims and minorities for creating a “frightening” campaign.

“The extreme views, the racism — I listen to him speak and my jaw is on my chest,” she said. “The comments are just so extreme.”

Sitting in the food court at Park Meadows mall in Lone Tree, Dhooge said she feels the same as Ritchie, and the first presidential debate on Sept. 26 reaffirmed her opinion.

“He just kept on interrupting her,” she said. “I thought ‘I better shut it off before I put my foot through the TV.’ ” Dhooge said she’s never voted a straight ticket, always choosing individuals over their party. And though she’s “not crazy about Clinton,” she will vote for her.

“She has the knowledge,” Dhooge said. “And he always has a plan for everything, but he never tells you what it is.”

‘We’re all Americans’ Saunders, the CSU professor, said polarization in Congress has become unyielding in the last 10 to 15 years, with party lines taking precedent over principle. That opposition, he said, is reflected in the electorate.

“How do we get past that?” Saunders asked rhetorically. “It’s really hard

Did you know?

By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Since the mid-1800s, the Democratic and Republican parties have consolidated the presidential election process into essentially a twoparty competition. The last president who wasn’t either a Republican or a Democrat was Millard Fillmore, a Whig, who ended his term in 1852.

The last time a third-party candidate came in second was 1912, when Teddy Roosevelt split from the Republican Party. Running as the candidate for his newly-formed Progressive Party, Roosevelt won 88 electoral votes and came in second to Democrat Woodrow Wilson.

This year’s election cycle, featuring two widely unpopular majorparty candidates, has seen a lot of buzz about third-party resurgence and theories that many voters may not cast a ballot at all.

But political veterans aren’t sure whether there is any truth to the speculation.

Marlu Burkamp, director-at-large for the League of Women Voters in Arapahoe and Douglas counties, is “not that worried” that dislike of the top candidates will keep people home on Election Day. But she added that there has been a slight uptick in third-party interest. to think about how that would happen without a pretty large reset of the system.”

If voters supporting Trump and Clinton follow their leaders’ example, there may not be much cause for optimism.

“We have one candidate who says ‘Can’t we all get along?’ and another candidate who says ‘Nope, we can’t,’ ”

“There is probably a resurgence in voting for a third party,” she said.

“They’re picking up, but I don’t know that it will be significant.”

A Real Clear Politics poll on Sept.

23, showing Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson polling at 8.9 percent nationally, bears out her assessment.

Burkamp worries the drama surrounding this year’s presidential race will overshadow important local issues and candidates.

“Everything starts locally,” Burkamp said. “If you’re not very happy with the presidential candidates, your vote still counts down the ballot, it’s very important. If you don’t vote for them, you’re missing the boat.”

Political science professor Kyle Saunders of Colorado State University said there is always a level of non-participation among the college-aged citizens he teaches. But he doesn’t necessarily see this year’s candidates causing widespread voter apathy among older voters.

Saunders said 43 percent of voters self-identify as Independents, but when they are alone in the ballot box, a majority still vote primarily with either Republicans or Democrats.

“Seventy to 75 percent of them are closet partisans,” he said. “If you push them or watch how they vote, they vote the same as a straight Republican or a straight Democrat down the ticket.”

Saunders said. “It’s a tough time.”

But Dhooge has hope.

Differences between the candidates and their supporters run deep, but she believes the rift will mend, regardless of who wins.

“We’re all Americans,” she said. “If you are at all patriotic, you stick with your country.”

4B: Pennies add up to something beautiful “Life without the collective resources of our libraries, museums, theatres and galleries, or without the personal expression of literature, music and art, would be static and sterile – no creative arguments about the past, no diverse and stimulating present and no dreams of the future.”

That quote comes from “The Value of Arts and Culture to People and Society,” a report

by Arts Council England, an organization similar to our Scientific Cultural Facilities District in that it distributes public monies to a bevy of arts and cultural entities.

Like the SCFD, the Arts Council’s goal is not only sustainability for those institutions, but also — and perhaps more importantly — the creation of thriving and diverse experiences that enrich communities, expand horizons and inspire us to reach for the best of humanity.

That’s what the SCFD has accomplished since 1988, for the incredible bargain of a penny for every $10 in sales tax paid in Douglas County and the six other Denver metro area counties that comprise the district. Voters renewed that deal in 1994 and 2004. And we should again do so on Nov. 8 by saying yes to Ballot Issue 4B. The amendment would reauthorize and extend the collection of the 0.1 percent sales tax for 12 more years until 2030. It also revises the distribution formula of money to the three tiers of organizations — 310 in total — that it funds. Besides Douglas County (with the exception of the towns of Castle Rock and Larkspur), the other counties that receive SCFD funding are Adams, Arapahoe, Broomfield, Boulder, Denver and Jefferson.

The bulk of the money would continue to go to the five largest entities: the Denver Zoo, Denver Botanic Gardens, Denver Art Museum, Denver Museum of Nature and Science,

OUR VIEW and Denver Center for the Performing Arts.

But the smaller regional and local organizations would receive a larger percentage of distributions than they have in the past.

Opponents argue the tax unfairly hits everyone, regardless of whether they patronize the cultural facilities. They argue the distribution formula favors the five largest organizations, while the grants to smaller institutions would continually shrink because their share would be divided among more.

But there can be no argument that for 28 years the SCFD has succeeded in its mission of creating a dynamic, vibrant arts, science and cultural environment that is recognized far beyond the metro area.

We derive an intrinsic benefit from arts and culture: We learn. We explore. We consider new perspectives. We dream.

But arts and culture also directly energize our economy and workforce. They attract tourists and create jobs. They spill over into classrooms and education arenas. They foster collaboration and inspire creative thinking that can lead to social change. And, especially, they build community, reminding us how we’re connected while celebrating and providing needed outlets for expression and diversity.

Just last week, the nonprofit Colorado Business Committee for the Arts released an economic activity study of Denver metroarea culture. The report, released every two years, was based on grant reports from the institutions that participate in the SCFD. The results show that in 2015: • Arts and culture generated $1.8 billion in economic activity.

• SCFD distributed $53.2 million, 14.6 percent more than in 2013.

• Jobs in the arts, science and cultural organizations grew by 5 percent since 2013 to 10,731.

• Cultural tourists, about 18 percent of the nearly 14 million people who visited cultural attractions, added $367 million in new money to the state’s economy, the largest impact to date from that sector.

• 3.9 million children benefited from outreach.

The SCFD institutions also are working to increase outreach and improve access to underserved communities and those who might not be able to afford admissions.

At Denver Botanic Gardens, for instance, 5.3 million people were served through the SCFD’s free days in 2015. Gardens officials realized some also might not be able to visit because they just can’t get there. So they started free shuttle transportation from community centers, such as Denver’s Mariposa Housing Authority, the Asian-Pacific Development Center and refugee communities to bring people in on days other than traditional free days — but also with free admission.

While the process may not be perfect, what the Scientific Cultural Facilities District has built in 28 years of existence can only be applauded and met with gratitude.

Its institutions — from the Denver Zoo to the Lone Tree Arts Center to the Highlands Ranch Concert Band — continually work to give us the joy of discovery and simple enjoyment, moments that let us breathe in a world that runs too fast.

All this for a penny on every $10 in sales tax.

The decision is easy: Approve 4B. It’s a small price to pay for the arts.

A state between love and hate As I have shared in the past, one of my very favorite things about writing this column is the interaction and communication with our communities. Many of those conversations or email exchanges inspire my thoughts and sometimes even provide great material for a future column.

Such as this one.

These past few weeks I have Michael Norton received more “negatively” charged emails than I can reWINNING member at any time over the WORDS past 10 years. The negativity was not so much pointed at me, but rather about the current state of life, politics, terrorism, national anthem protests and the growing chasm between our communities and our police departments. And by the way, although we all recognize there is work to be done and improvements that can be made within our police departments and processes, a big shout-out to anyone who wears the uniform and has worn the uniform, you are greatly appreciated and deeply respected.

The negative question contained in one email was this, “So what do you hate more, the insanity of the presidential election and our sorry choice of candidates or the Colin Kaepernick driven National Anthem protest?”

Another reader called me out and asked me if I was ever going to take a stand or share my beliefs or opinions on some of these “harder than life issues,” as he called them. And there have been several others that carried a similar message that have been born out of frustration, lack of clear information, and opposing belief systems on both a grand and small scale.

Without sidestepping the questions or avoid declaring my position or belief on the above topics and other important issues, let me share my responses with you here.

As far as which do I hate more, I can honestly say neither. First of all, “hate” would not be my word choice.

Disappointed, saddened, sick to my stomach, frustrated would all come well before “hate.” I cannot turn a blind eye to the massive shortfalls of both candidates, nor can I tell you that I don’t feel a gut-punch every time I see an Norton continues on Page 11

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Vote yes on Amendment 71 Our state’s constitution has become cluttered with directives pushed by special interests. This isn’t a good thing, but there is a good reason it has happened: It’s easy to do. Special interests from all over the country look to Colorado as a testing ground for laws and constitutional amendments.

What is wrong with voters directly stating their preferences for laws and constitutional clauses? Absolutely nothing. But it also makes sense that we should protect our constitution from outsiders and that amendments should be of enduring value.

Currently, special interests face the same ballot process to change state law as they do the constitution. Not surprisingly, three out of every four initiatives seek an amendment because of the greater weight it carries over a state law.

These constitutional amendments inject permanent policies into our governance that are difficult to change or remove. This creates a vulnerability for our state and particularly our economic development efforts. And that,

Email letters to letters@coloradocommunitymedia.com

in turn, affects all working Coloradans.

Bringing new businesses to our region better positions our communities for the work-life balance people want: less time on the roads and more time with families. But the level of certainty necessary for them to operate and grow is jeopardized by the ease of potential constitutional amendments.

Amendment 71 will protect our constitution and increase the level of certainty by requiring that signatures are gathered in every state Senate district. This ensures broad-based support and equitable representation. The proposed constitutional amendment then needs to pass by more than 55 percent, thereby, raising the bar.

While Amendment 71 raises the bar for constitutional amendments, it leaves intact the easiest process in the country for citizen-initiated changes to law.

This November, I hope you’ll join me in raising the bar and protecting the Colorado Constitution by supporting Amendment 71.

To boldly goat where no man has gone before During an interview with National Geographic several years ago, I was asked, “What animal would you like to be?”

At the time, I was wearing a lot of black eye makeup and eating shoots and leaves.

I said, “Isn’t it obvious?”

But seriously.

A man named Thomas Thwaites decided that “goat” would be his answer.

He spent three days living with goats as a goat in the Swiss Alps.

He had some prosthetic legs made for himself, wore tight black and white clothing, and a white speed-cyclist’s helmet.

For breakfast he ate grass.

For lunch he ate a tin can.

I made that up.

Thwaites said, “My goal was to take a holiday from the pain and worry of being a self-conscious being, able to regret the past and worry about the future.”

Vodka used to do that for me, and I didn’t have to leave the house.

“I was able to keep up with them for maybe a kilometer or so on this migration down the side of a rocky mountain, and

then they just left me in the dust.”

I went to see my doctor and said, “Doctor, I feel like a goat.”

The doctor said, “Craig, how long have you felt like that?”

I said, “Since I was a kid.”

There are several videos of Thwaites amid goats, doing his best on all fours on his special

legs, and chewing grass.

A television news anchor was overcome when she was reporting the story. That’s the video I recommend.

I think we have all contemplated existence as something other than a human being, and some people take the next step, like college mascots and furries.

Furries are people who dress up like animals. They even hold conventions.

Why isn’t a Halloween costume enough, once a year?

Beats me.

What do you call an unemployed goat?

Billy Idol.

A good friend of mine told me a story about his cherished Bible. He lost it in the Rocky Mountains when he was on vacation, and he spent the next three days looking for it.

Then one day, a goat came to his hotel with the Bible in his mouth.

My friend raised his hands and yelled, “It’s a miracle.”

The goat said, “No it isn’t. Your name is on the inside cover.”

Thwaites wrote a book about his experience.

It’s called “GoatMan: How I Took a Holiday from Being Human.”

The wrap on the book is that while it does a fine job of outlining his extensive preparation, which includes designing a prosthetic goat stomach to digest grass, it is

less attentive to his actual time as a goat.

Please read it on my behalf and let me know.

During World War II, metal was needed for the war effort, so license plates were made out of soybeans.

Guess who ate them off of farm vehicles?

If you know baseball, you know about the Hartford Yard Goats. The Yard Goats are the Rockies Double-A farm team.

They finished third in the Eastern League Eastern Division with a record of 74-67.

I don’t have a joke here. However, the Rockies’ season sometimes seemed like one.

The expression about getting someone’s goat comes from the practice of putting a goat in a race horse’s stall prior to a race, to calm the horse down.

Rascals would swipe the goat.

Goats and I have something in common.

We both listen to Baaa-ch.

Unpresidential audio stirs up memories When I was 18, the summer between my freshman and sophomore years in college, I worked at the front desk of a manufacturing plant, and was the only woman on the site.

One of my duties was to go into the production area and collect the time cards for payroll processing.

One day the superintendent of the plant – a married man – was waiting for me in the back. He pushed me against the wall, trapped me with his body against mine, and pressured me for sex. I got away and, from then on, only went for the time cards when he was off the site. He continued to stalk me, sometimes following me on my way home to hang around outside the post office while I dropped off the company’s mail.

But I didn’t tell anyone.

Some years later, while vice president of an advertising agency, one of my clients was a wealthy real estate developer. We were driving to one of his job sites when he took his right hand off the steering wheel and reached across the car to grab my breast. I couldn’t move. I couldn’t speak. I wondered what I could possibly have done to invite this crude advance.

He was married, I was married. And yet I didn’t tell anyone. I was in a situation familiar to many women, especially in those days when it seemed more acceptable for men who believed they wielded power to take advantage of women. I didn’t want to risk offending a significant client of our agency, even though I was traumatized by these ac-

athlete at any level kneel, sit or protest our national anthem. It’s the same gut-punch feeling when the Pledge of Allegiance and prayer were challenged and taken away from our schools or when Christmas displays and celebrations on public property became governed and directed by the minority instead of the majority.

And as for as taking a stand or sharing my beliefs, I am sure you understand those from my response in the above paragraph.

I have heard it said that it is our differences that make the world go ‘round, and that keep the earth spinning. I also grew up as an amusement park kid, where there were rides that continued to spin you around and around and around. Some were able to tolerate it regardless of how much spinning was going on and the velocity at which they were spun. The ride was fantastic for them.

Others would either throw up on the ride or vomit as they walked weak-legged off of the ride.

So if it is our differences that make the world go ‘round, I am amongst the many who have emailed me and tolerating as much as I possibly can. Sick to my stomach? Yes. I just want the ride to stop, slow down, and let me off before I do actually throw up.

Here is where I net this out for myself

tions. He invited me to fly with him on his private jet to another of his properties, and when I declined, we lost the account.

Having launched my business career in the ’80s, I have been subjected to these and other kinds Andrea Doray of harassment for more than 30 years, ALCHEMY sometimes from the men who directly employed me. So it’s no surprise to me when stories such as those about Bill Cosby, Roger Ailes and – God help us – the Republican nominee for president have come to light.

What does surprise me is that 1) people are shocked by these revelations, 2) people believe that such behavior is uncommon, and 3) people continue to blame and shame the victims.

I know why women stay silent. I know why they endure the objectification, the humiliation, the fear. It’s because this type of discrimination and harassment doesn’t only happen at the exalted levels of celebrity. It happens to wives, mothers, sisters, daughters, girlfriends and best friends in all walks of life. It’s because women are not believed or, worse, are believed but brushed aside as inconsequential.

in our challenging times. Again, I don’t use the word “hate” because I still do believe we live in a world that is mostly filled with love. I believe we live in a world where the mistakes and agendas of the few are amplified so loudly that they seem to take center stage over the goodness, love, and grace that abounds in our communities. We are living in this state of being or state of mind that is centered right between love and hate as we are caught up in the chaos created by the decisions and actions of our past.

And as we seek to break that cycle and we seek new change and as we come together to achieve both, the words I hope that we will use to replace “hate” and the words I hope we can live with and live by example with include: love and forgiveness, love and kindness, and love and grace.

How about you? Are you living with that gut-punch feeling about any of the topics or issues mentioned here? Or maybe there is something else that has your attention right now. And if you are feeling that gutpunch I hope that you can ease the pain or nauseated feeling by turning to grace.

As always, thank you for your emails and I would love to hear from you this week at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we can get our head around the fact that grace usurps hate every time, it 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.

I read a comment in the New York Times the day the latest news broke about Donald Trump’s boasts of what is classified as sexual assault, and I paraphrase here: If you are female, you have had someone else grab a private part of your body without your consent. This is certainly true for me and most of my contemporaries. I think of the younger women in my life and can only fervently hope this is no longer true for them.

And that’s why I’m telling my story now.

What makes anyone believe they have the right, the permission, to take away my control of who touches my own flesh?

I believe – I have to believe – that this happens less frequently, less systematically than in the past, due in large part to the women who have come forward, the women who support them, and the decent,

compassionate men – and they are in the majority – who are appalled and outraged by what goes on.

It’s unlikely there will be any kind of justice for the women in Trump’s lewd legacy, but there can be a victory for the women and girls of the United States – and the people who love them – in the defeat of Donald Trump. Vote for anyone other than the most unqualified person, on any level, ever to seek leadership of the (still) greatest country on the Earth.

Keeping kids active Fun and encouragement key to getting kids to exercise

By Kyle Harding kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com

THE IMPORTANCE OF UNSUPERVISED PLAY TIME

P

arents worry that today’s children aren’t getting enough exercise, spending more time playing video games and less time playing outdoors.

But throughout the metro area, there are efforts to spark kids’ interest in physical fitness.

They include running programs in Littleton and Parker and a beforeschool program in Arvada that encourages students to play sports.

Kaiser Permanente offers options for Colorado schools that want to encourage exercise, via its Thriving Schools Initiative, which offers grants of up to $200,000 to fund physical or nutritional education programs.

At North Arvada Middle School, the program funds a zero-hour class beginning at 7:30 a.m. daily in which students play a friendly game of basketball or handball, tracking activity with pedometers, with a goal of at least 3,000 steps.

At Damon Runyon Elementary School in Littleton, physical education teacher Jason Hill has been working for 10 years to get and keep kids interested in running.

His Runyon Running Club gathers weekly during the fall and spring at the school’s track, with about 80 students ranging from kindergarten to fifth grade.

Parent Adrian Jordan, whose son Tariq is a second-grader at Runyon and takes part in the club, said it helps to have something else to do besides sitting in front of a computer.

“It’s not good for a kid to be staring

A fear of letting kids play unsupervised can also lead to lower levels of physical activity, some parents believe.

“I think now people are more afraid to let their kids go out and play,” said Joy Getz, whose son, Brady, a kindergartner, takes part in the Runyon Running Club in Littleton.

Though many parents or educators may be worried that today’s children may not be as active as in generations past, Hill said they may just need encouragement.

“I think they’re active with adults’ help,” he said. “There’s not a lot of kids coming down here playing soccer or shooting hoops without it being a scheduled practice.”

Many Runyon parents are into running, which helps, Hill said.

“There are a lot of triathletes and distance runners here.”

Hill runs 5Ks and used to trail run when he lived in western Colorado.

He ran one half-marathon before sustaining an ACL and meniscus tear in his knee.

His son took part in the club during his elementary school years and now runs track at Euclid Middle School in Littleton.

“Many kids from here are now doing track there,” he said.

Kids Running America is a Parkerbased nonprofit organization that encourages running among children throughout the Denver metro area.

The group uses an “incremental marathon” approach, with the kids logging mileage over eight to 12 weeks.

Lenore Skenazy, founder of the Freerange Kids movement and the blog Freerangekids.com, which advocates raising children to be independent, said that fear is unfounded and negatively affects child-rearing, including by keeping kids from being as active as they should be.

“We really have lost our perspective on what is dangerous,” she said.

Skenazy, an author and former journalist who lives in New York City, believes that unsupervised play is crucial to childhood development.

They run the final mile at Washington Park in Denver on Oct. 23, completing either a marathon of 26.2 miles or an ultra-marathon of 100 miles.

“Our main goal is to get kids out and active,” spokeswoman Rachel Levi said.

Local orchestra keeps jazz beat alive Denver’s jazz scene will never match the bustling birthplaces of the genre — New Orleans, Chicago and New Orleans — but the Mile High City still boasts an impressive jazz history.

Art Bouton, executive director Clarke Reader of the Colorado Jazz Repertory OrchesLINER tra, is among those NOTES working to keep that history alive through performance.

“The goal of the orchestra is simple — gather the best players in town to play the best big band jazz,” he said. “Every town should have a band playing great stuff like this.”

Entering its fifth season, the orchestra brings its take on big band leaders like Count Basie and Duke Ellington, and unique arrangements from such legends as Miles Davis, Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald, to smaller venues up and down the Front Range. In the coming six months, the 18-piece band will perform at the Arvada Center, Lakewood Cultural Center and Parker Arts Center.

“These 500-seat theaters are our sweet spot,” Bouton said. “There’s not any other large jazz ensemble in town doing what we’re doing.”

Denver’s jazz scene dates back to the 1920s and 1930s, when Five Points in central Denver was known as the ‘Harlem of the West.’ The neighborhood was home to famous clubs like the Rossonian, the Casino Cabaret and Lotus Club.

Bouton, also a professor of saxophone at the University of Denver’s Lamont School of Music, has been a lifelong advocate of jazz in the area.

“This music deserves people with an attention to detail,” he said. “Anybody can feel it when it really starts grooving.”

Denver’s jazz scene dates back to the 1920s and 1930s, when Five Points in central Denver was known as the “Harlem of the West.” The neighborhood was home to famous clubs like the Rossonian, the Casino Cabaret and Lotus Club. Towering figures like Louis Armstrong and Fitzgerald stopped by to perform.

One of the biggest names in the big band era, Glenn Miller, also left an im-

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK Selection: Norah Jones’ “Day Breaks,” released on Blue Note records.

Review: Jones’ sixth album is her jazziest since her award-winning debut. But while “Come Away With Me” was brimming with love songs, “Day Breaks” goes deeper and darker. Jones tackles the tense national

pression on the area. He attended the University of Colorado in Boulder in 1923 and played in clubs around Denver before dropping out of the university to pursue music fulltime.

Today, Denver is home to such jazz clubs as Dazzle on Capitol Hill and El Chapultepec on Market Street, which are great places to experience live jazz.

“Live jazz is amazing, because you’re able to see and hear people create music on the spot,” Bouton said. “Jazz is always changing, and I can’t wait to hear what the music sounds like in six years.”

In a world with so many musical options at one’s fingertips, getting young people interested in jazz is one of the genre’s biggest challenges. Since its creation, hip-hop has been inspiring new generations of jazz investigators, and artists like Kendrick Lamar, Chance the Rapper and Oddisee are blending jazz

climate in songs like “Flipside” and “Tragedy,” and her compositions call to mind Charles Mingus and Thelonious Monk. Few vocalists, jazz or otherwise, bring the same warmth and melancholy to their music.

Favorite song: “Once I Had A Laugh” Best song for our troubled times: “Peace”

and hip-hop in new, inventive ways.

To help keep jazz alive, Bouton and the orchestra work with Youth on Record, a nonprofit that partners with the local music community, public schools, housing authorities and philanthropic organizations to ensure high-risk young people graduate high school ready to enter college or the workforce.

“We’re building an audience one person at a time,” Bouton said. “We play music at such a high level, and that’s the way it should be played.”

Clarke Reader’s column on how music connects to our lives appears every other week.

A community editor with Colorado Community Media, he has been a jazz fan since hearing Miles Davis in seventh grade. Check out his music blog at calmacil20.blogspot. com. And share your favorite jazz music at creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com.

about 40 schools throughout the area, and about 550 kids are taking part this fall, Levi said. She serves as a team mentor at Northridge Elementary School in Highlands Ranch, where 70 kids are in the club.

“It’s really fun to see these kids and their love of running,” she said.

Making exercise fun is key to keeping kids interested in it, according to the Roadrunners Club of America, a national association of running organizations.

To that end, Hill’s running club at Runyon isn’t just about running in circles. The kids warm up with an interval run and then play a runningfocused game, like tag. The kids then take part in two “fun runs” per year, with those in third, fourth and fifth grades running one mile and younger kids running half a mile. The one in the spring is a cross country course.

“It’s fun,” Hill said, “to get them a taste of jumping over rocks and running through trees.”

WHAT IS CHILDHOOD OBESITY? Generally, a child is not obese until he or she is at least 10 percent heavier than the recommended weight for his or her height and body type, according to Kids Running America, a Parker-based organization that encourages running during childhood.

Obesity most commonly begins at age 5 or 6 or during adolescence, and a child who is obese between the ages of 10 and 13 has an 80

percent chance of being overweight or obese as an adult, Kids Running America said.

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, childhood obesity rates have shown small improvements, but the level of healthy-weight children is “far from ideal.”

AAP recommends that all children receive at least one hour of physical activity per day.

African Children’s Choir Corvid program is to perform in Centennial worth crowing about Music for Life helps by providing education

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com When the African Children’s Choir steps onstage at the Good Shepherd Episcopal Church in Centennial on Oct. 19, these children will bring a message of hope for many others in Africa. Music for Life, the parent organization, was formed over 30 years ago by Canadian Ray Barnett, who started in Uganda, where he was charmed and inspired by a little boy’s singing.

The organization now works in seven countries in Africa, providing stable homes and education for many young children.

A number of them have been orphaned by the ongoing wars, and others are from families who don’t have enough food or money to pay for schooling.

That first tour raised enough money to build a home at Makere for choir members and others who needed care. Subsequent tours have provided six more homes and made it possible for these children to have an education, continued through secondary school. Many have gone on to higher education in Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda, Sudan, Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa. MFL has educated more than 52,000 children and affected the lives of over 100,000 people with its relief and development programs.

Moscow Jazz Orchestra coming to Lone Tree Arts center to host Igor Butman group

Members of The Moscow Jazz Orchestra surround their conductor, saxophonist Igor Butman. The band will perform at Lone Tree Arts Center on Oct. 19.

Courtesy photo

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com Saxophone virtuoso Igor Butman will bring his Moscow Jazz Orchestra on a return visit to the Lone Tree Arts Center at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 19 for a concert of Big Band music featuring 16 musicians performing American standards and Russian jazz numbers.

Butman, born in St. Petersburg in 1961, started playing the clarinet at age 11, but switched to jazz saxophone a year after he entered the Rimsky-Korsakov College of Music. His online bio says he also “took unofficial lessons from nightly radio broadcasts of jazz from 11:15 to midnight on Voice of America.” In 1987, he emigrated to America and majored in performance and composition at Berklee College of Music in Boston.

He was already acquainted with some of America’s important jazz artists after being invited to play with them when they were on tour in Russia. Included: Dave Brubeck, Chick Corea, Pat Metheny, Gary Burton, Louis Bellson and Grover Washington Jr. Washington took Butman “under his wing” and had him play as guest artist with his band in concert and in the recording studio.

Butman moved to New York in 1989, worked with the Lionel Hampton Orchestra, released a solo album in 1993 and

performed at major jazz festivals in the U.S. He then returned to Russia, forming his big band orchestra, but stayed in touch with American jazz contacts, bringing them to perform in Russia. When Wynton Marsalis played in Russia, he

invited Butman to perform with his band.

This is a connection that lasted — with Butman’s band performing with Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York and Marsalis appearing on a Butman jazz recording in Russia.

The Moscow Jazz Orchestra has ap-

peared at every Olympics since 2004 in Athens and produced the “AquaJazz” International Festival in Sochi. They are on a tour that takes them to American cities, to Europe, to Australia and India.

But on Oct. 19, they will be onstage at Lone Tree Arts Center!

South metro brewers hold their own Breweries from area are well-represented at Great American Beer Fest

By Kyle Harding kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com Last year, 3 Freaks Brewery brought its staple beers to the Great American Beer Festival. But last week, the Highlands Ranch brewery showed off a different side.

“This year,” brewer Jess Anderson said, “we brought our fun, experimental beers.”

That would be, for instance, the Lloyd Christmas Peppermint Chocolate Porter, named for the “Dumb and Dumber” character.

3 Freaks Brewery was among a bevy of breweries from Littleton, Highlands Ranch, Centennial, Lone Tree, Castle Rock and Parker that participated in the Great American Beer Festival, held Oct. 6-8 at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver. About 800 brewers from across the country, including more than 100 from Colorado, took part.

For some of the newer breweries in the area, the festival was a chance to get exposure to beer drinkers who may not know of the options south of Denver.

“Our green chile has probably been the most popular,” said Andy Nelson, coowner of Lovaore Beer Works of Littleton.

He was referring to the brewery’s Heisenberg Green Chile Pale Ale. It was the third year at the festival for Grist Brewing Company of Highlands Ranch, but the first year taking part in the “Meet the Brewers” portion, in which the 60,000 beer drinkers who converge on the festival can talk to the minds behind the beer.

The experience was helpful for letting people know about south metro area breweries, Steve Nolan, of Grist, said. “It’s always fun here.”

One of Grist’s more unusual offerings, the Ponche de Burro, proved popular. The

Nolan said taking part in the Meet the Brewers portion of the event helps smaller brewers get the word out. Photos by Kyle Harding cinnamon-apple-pear beer is a perfect offering for early fall, Nolan noted.

At Living the Dream Brewing’s table, Jerod Scott of the Highlands Ranch brewery said the Belgian raspberry ale was most popular.

But not all popular beers at the festival

were outside of the norm.

Jeff Scharlau of Lone Tree Brewing Company said the Hop Zombie India Pale Ale was a favorite.

And at Littleton’s 38 State Brewing Company, general manager Steve Schuett said its red and brown ales were among the most well-received.

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunity Tyler Patten, a former officer of the Lone Tree Police Department, was working the graveyard shift on July 22 when he found out his 2-year-old daughter, Lulu, had died unexpectedly in her sleep.

“When she passed away,” Patten said, “it totally rocked our world.”

Patten left his job shortly after. He wanted something safer, he said. He and his wife, Alli, have three other daughters — twins that were born in June and a 4-year-old.

Lulu’s funeral was held on July 29 with more than 1,000 people in attendance.

The casket, funded by South Metro Fire Rescue, was painted Lulu’s favorite color, sky blue, and decorated with Disney characters.

The community outreach since his daughter’s death has been tremendous, Patten said. He’s received thousands of calls and letters from people near and far.

“I think that’s the reason we are doing so well,” said Patten, who is getting ready to move from Roxborough to Parker.

To show its support, the City of Lone Tree is hosting a Lanes for Lulu fundraiser on Oct. 23 at Bowlero Lone Tree — formerly Brunswick Zone XL — at 255 Kimmer Drive.

will compete for prizes, including highest overall score, highest score without using the gutter, highest first responder team score, highest youth team score, best team name and best team costumes. The cost is $180 for a team of six players or $40 per individual.

Lone Tree city manager Seth Hoffman said planning the event was a group effort. He and other city employees wanted to help the Patten family financially and show support.

“It’s a family atmosphere here for all of the employees,” Hoffman said. “When one of our family members has a loss like that, it’s a loss for all of us.”

Sgt. Joseph Deland, who was Patten’s supervisor, worked the graveyard shift with Patten. The loss, he said, hit home for anyone in the police department who has kids.

“As a parent, it is the worst thing in the world that could ever happen to you,” said Deland, who has a 2½-year-old daughter. “The strength that the Pattens have shown is truly unbelievable.”

Deland signed up to partipate in Lanes for Lulu the second he heard about it.

“As police officers, we want to fix things,” Deland said. “We can’t fix this.

But whatever we can do, we will do.”

Eric Hurst, 32, stands next to the same fire truck he sat in as a 5- or 6-year-old. “I was always infatuated with the fire department growing up,” said Hurst. He stumbled upon a for-sale video for the truck a few weeks ago, and he bought it. Photos by Alex DeWind

Firefighter buys same truck he sat in as a child Vehicle is ‘time capsule’ for South Metro Fire Rescue

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunity

0 Eric Hurst remembers his first time sitting in a particular red firetruck. He was 5 or 6 years old and he was infatuated.

Today, that very same truck is parked in his garage.

“It’s amazing,” Hurst, now 32, said. “I can’t believe I found it.”

Hurst, public information officer for South Metro Fire Rescue and operations manager of the 9-1-1 dispatch call center, was born and raised in south metro Denver. He grew up attending the Littleton Fire Muster and parade every year, and he frequented the Castlewood Fire Department — which is now South Metro Fire Rescue, a district that encompasses Centennial, Parker, Lone Tree and other areas of Arapahoe and Douglas counties.

His grandpa knew the fire chief and his father took him for visits often.

“I don’t think they quite anticipated that I would visit all the time,” Hurst said.

The Littleton resident remembers being immediately drawn to that one red firetruck.

More than two decades later, he saw the truck for sale online on a YouTube channel called The Fast Lane Truck and jumped at the opportunity, for which he paid $13,000.

The truck now serves as a trip down memory lane for Hurst and his fellow firefighters, such as Lt. Mike DeBoer, who joined the Castlewood Fire Department in 1991.

“It’s become a symbol of where we came from,” Hurst said. “It contributes to the firefighters who made us who we are today.”

The truck, which was in service from 1970 to 2000, was used to respond to aircraft crashes at Centennial Airport. At the time, Hurst’s father-in-law, Wayne Austgen, was the public information officer for Castlewood Fire Department. He recalls stories of that very same fire truck, including one occasion in the early 1990s when it was hit by a plane.

“There was a firefighter in the cab,” Hurst said. “He came out untouched.”

DeBoer, who joined the Castlewood Fire Department in 1991,

remembers driving the truck to and from the airport. After Hurst bought the truck, DeBoer helped him replicate the Castlewood Fire Department lettering that had worn over the years. He has a graphic design business on the side.

“We tried to make it look just like it did back in the day,” DeBoer said.

The truck isn’t large and bulky like modern day fire engines.

It has a cab and a bed. Its color is a faded red with chips and marks acquired more than 40 years ago.

Castlewood Fire Department is printed on the side in vintage yellow lettering. Its technology is old school — the dashboard is analog and a shifter sits on the floor. Hanging on the window are two weathered firefighter hats.

“It’s a time capsule of a truck,” Hurst said.

Hurst plans to feature the truck in the Littleton Fire Muster, held annually during the summer, as well as local events and parades. He describes himself a fire rescue historian and plans to use the truck to preserve memories.

“There’s a lot of character to it,” he said. “All the scratches and dings have their own stories.”

“It’s amazing. I can’t believe I found it.”

— Eric Hurst, South Metro Fire Rescue

Breast cancer affects us all, and early detection can save lives. There is no cure for breast cancer, but mammograms can save lives by finding breast cancer as early as possible. Every woman, beginning at age 40, should schedule a mammogram and a physical every year. Women should also perform a thorough breast self-exam once a month. Help spread awareness in your community by educating your neighbors and friends on the signs and symptoms of breast cancer, and encourage the women you know to schedule a mammogram today.

Family hopes service dog will help diabetic boy Community helps raise money toward $25,000 goal

LAST WEEK’S WINNER Erica O. Thank you to all the readers and advertisers that helped support our pink ribbon promotion.

Tara Dana and son, Christian, 7, hope the family will soon have enough funds to get Christian a diabetic alert dog. Courtesy photo

By Jessica Gibbs jgibbs@coloradocommunitymedia.com Christian Dana ran to his mother on a recent afternoon, excited to tell her the coffee shop they were in had sugar-free candies.

It’s a big deal to the 7-year-old who has to count every sugar and carb he eats. Christian was diagnosed with Type I diabetes in April 2015.

“You never imagine it to be your own child,” his mother, Tara, said. “I would have done everything that day to trade spots with him.”

Now, Christian never eats anything without checking the label. He wears a pump to control his insulin. He pricks his finger eight to 10 times a day to check his blood sugar.

And he does it like a pro: The boy with a sheepish yet ornery smile whips out a testing strip. He pricks his finger, gives it a squeeze to push out the blood and then takes the sample. Not even a wince.

Soon, the Dana family hopes that monitoring Christian’s diabetes will become easier through the help of a service dog. They are approximately halfway to their $25,000 fundraising goal.

Through scent, service dogs can alert a person when blood sugar is getting too high or too low.

The Danas are working with Service Dogs

by Warren Retrievers, a nonprofit that provides service dogs to families, along with trainers to help them transition the dog into their daily lives.

Testing his blood sugar is the first thing Christian does when he wakes up each day.

It’s the last thing he does before going to sleep around 9 p.m. each night. Sometimes, on a bad day, Tara wakes up around midnight to check it again.

However, Tara worries he may becomes less meticulous as he grows older. A dog by his side would give him a safety net, she said, and give her peace of mind.

The community has already gathered around the family. 105 West Brewing Co. in Castle Rock dedicated the month of August to Christian’s cause, Tara said, and pulled in $3,000.

An event organized by Christian’s Cub

way of donations and event turnout.

“When we finally presented Christian the check, Christian was crying, and some of the other boys got emotional, too,” she said, “because they’ve all been friends for so long.”

The Cub Scout Pack was proud. The club had expected to raise, maybe, $1,000. The day’s proceeds more than exceeded their expectations.

Both Cogswell and Tara are brainstorming more fundraisers to help bring the donations up to the $25,000 goal. The family also has a donation page set up through the nonprofit’s website.

Tara hopes the process will raise awareness about service dogs and their ability to assist diabetic persons. She also hopes to give Christian some comfort as he lives with his disease.

“I give him a lot of credit for what he goes through at a young age,” she said. “I want to give him something out of this.”

HOW TO HELP The Dana family is raising $25,000 to buy a service dog that would alert Christian as to whether his blood sugar is too high or too low. They are working with Service Dogs by Warren Retrievers (SDWR), a nonprofit that provides service dogs to families.

So far, the family has raised about half of the amount needed. If you want to help, go to www. sdwr.donatedrive.com and search for “Tara Dana.”

Scout pack raised $3,300 in one day. A rummage sale, held at First United Methodist church on Aug. 13, took weeks of planning but brought a profit that was well worth it.

Vanessa Cogswell, the fundraising chair and treasurer for Cub Scout Pack 261, said community support was huge, particularly in

Quarterback is living a sweet dream

Falcons pull away for victory Highlands Ranch picks up league win over Lakewood

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Oct. 7 Highlands RanchLakewood football game provided excitement with goal-line stands, two kickoffs returned for touchdowns, plays grinding out yardage on the ground and a lot of accurate passing.

The contest was back-and-forth early and the score was tied at 14 early in the second quarter. But the Falcons scored 24 unanswered points to win 38-14.

“We are young, but we are a good team even though it has been an upand-down season so far,” said Falcons coach Mark Robinson, who previously was the Lakewood coach.

What is your favorite movie?

My favorite movie is “Monsters Inc.” because it’s such a cute and funny movie and Mike Wazowski is my favorite Pixar character.

What is your favorite pre-competition meal?

My favorite food in general is pizza, so that’s probably my favorite meal before games too. I also like chocolate chip pancakes before games.

He said, because of injuries, more players than usual were going both ways and playing both offense and defense.

Key moments The score was tied 14-14 with 8:01 left in the second quarter. The Falcons took the kickoff and mounted a scoring drive that took more than five minutes to take the lead for good at 21-14. Highlands Ranch then got the ball back and scored again with 34 seconds left in the half. The Falcons added a touchdown and a field goal in the second half.

Key players/statistics Falcons quarterback Joseph Alber had a good night throwing the ball as he connected on 15-of-21 passes for 222 yards and a touchdown. His

Who is your favorite professional or collegiate athlete (past or present)?

My favorite athlete is definitely Carlos Gonzalez. The Rockies are my favorite Major League Baseball team, and since I’m an outfielder too, he’s definitely my favorite player for them, and I have a life-size poster of him in my room.

favorite target was Ray Robinson, who caught six passes for 121 yards and a touchdown.

The ground game was effective, too. Kobe Eller was the team’s rushing leader as he carried 22 times for 78 yards and three touchdowns.

The Falcons’ leader in all-purpose yards was Dominic Bettini, who had 44 yards rushing, 43 yards in pass receptions and a 99-yard kickoff return.

They said it Ray Robinson said the team dominated the line of scrimmage and took care of businesses.

“We had a lot of success with our passing game tonight,” he said. “Our quarterback hit his target and it all worked out.”

I’m sure Judd Erickson sometimes feels like he is sauntering away from a sweet dream when he walks off the football field.

Erickson is Mountain Vista’s senior quarterback in the Golden Eagles’ spread, hurry-up offense. He throws an average of 41 passes a game.

He leads Class 5A quarterbacks with an impressive 2,168 yards and 23 touchdowns. He played only the first half in Vista’s 46-0 romp over Aurora Hinkley on Oct. 7 at Aurora Public Schools Stadium, but still passed for 205 yards and three Jim Benton TDs. “It’s amazing,” OVERTIME Erickson said. “I mean every quarterback dreams of it and with the skilled receivers we have and the offensive line that can hold up in pass pro(protection), it’s unreal.”

The 6-foot-4, 205 pounder who still hasn’t drawn a lot of attention from college recruiters, credits the coaching staff and his teammates for his success this season. Still, he did pass for 2,174 yards in the 2015 season with 20 TDs. Vista offensive coordinator TJ Rubley illuminated that Erickson is bigger and stronger so his arm strength is up probably 30 percent. He’s running the offense better and is more comfortable in the pocket. ”He gets to throw the ball a lot but he has to get us in the right play,” said Rubley, who was a quarterback at the University of Tulsa and was on five pro teams, including the Denver Broncos.

“If he doesn’t have those abilities, he doesn’t get the ability to throw the ball.

“He has to have accuracy. He’s throwing a lot with five in the box. This isn’t easy football. A majority of his yards have come against difficult coverages.”

Erickson, who could pass for 3,600 yards if he continues at his current pace, claims that running the offense isn’t hard.

“It’s not too difficult,” he said. “There are a lot of calls on me but our offensive coordinator is incredible and prepares me well each week, so I know what I’m going to see. He makes it easy for me.”

Fundraising for McKee family The Highlands Ranch football family and friends raised $1,663 and the Highlands Ranch TD club contributed another $500 to help support the McKee family for their injured son.

Dylan McKee was a former Highlands Ranch football player who is now a freshman on the Concordia football team. He was injured in an automobile accident along with four other Bulldogs freshman players on Oct. 2 near Surprise, Nebraska.

McKee was still in intensive care last weekend after his second surgery but was improving. He is expected to recover.

McKee’s brother Hunter is a senior linebacker on the Falcons football team this season and youngest sibling TJ is a freshman player at Highlands Ranch.

Parents Larry and Kelly McKee have been with Dylan since the accident, but Larry returned home briefly to watch the Highlands Ranch game Oct. 7 against Lakewood.

Jaguars keep winning volleyball games

Rock Canyon players celebrate after winning a point in a Oct. 4 Continental League match against ThunderRidge. The Jaguars are the No. 1 Class 5A team in the state, according to the CHSAANow.com poll, with a 14-1 overall record and 7-0 in the Continental League.

Top-ranked Rock Canyon eyes final four regular season matches

By Jim Benton jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Rock Canyon has been having fun this season and winning volleyball matches.

The Jaguars, Colorado’s No. 1 Class 5A team according to the CHSAANow.com poll, notched a Continental League 3-0 (25-11, 25-14 and 25-17) over ThunderRidge on Oct. 4 at the Rock Canyon gym.

Rock Canyon followed on Oct. 6 with a 3-1 (25-22, 25-21, 22-25, 25-20) triumph over Chaparral, which also entered the match unbeaten in the league.

With the two victories, Rock Canyon improved to 14-1 overall and 7-0 in the Continental League.

“What helps them click and play the best is when they have fun and don’t take things too seriously,” said Rock Canyon coach Angela Nylund-Hanson. “When we start games too nervous and freaked out, we kind of slow down. So we have to keep the fun on the court and support each other and that’s what makes us play the best.

“As a coach, how I do it, is that I can’t get too intense,” she continued. “I try to keep it light, I try to keep the huddles light, I don’t yell when I’m on the bench, I stay encouraging as much as I can.”

Junior outside hitter Keeley Davis grins when asked about the team having fun.

“We’re a very funny team” said Davis.

“We all crack jokes, and whenever someone is down, we crack a joke and they usually smile. And that’s when they get their hopes up.”

Davis leads the team with 214 kills on the season and a 41 kill percentage. Lacey Zadra and Davis are one-two in blocks with 26 and 24. Riley Bradbury is the Jaguars’ leader with 176 digs and Skylar Lane is tops with 510 assists.

Davis is the only junior on the team

that has eight seniors, a sophomore and freshman.

“They’ve been playing together for a really long time so they kind of know each other and that helps on the court,” admitted Nylund-Hanson.

Rock Canyon has the toughest part of its league schedule in front of it with an Oct. 18 game against Ponderosa, an Oct. 25 date with Mountain Vista and a regular season finale Oct. 27 at Highlands Ranch.

The Jaguars also have an Oct. 22 nonleague match against Columbine.

of fall break and the three Continental opponents remaining on the Jaguars schedule have a combined 12-3 league record and 26-15 overall mark. Mountain Vista and Highlands Ranch are unbeaten in league play.

“Our biggest league matches are coming up,” said Nylund-Hanson. “We have played Highlands Ranch once and that was our only loss (3-0 on Sept. 9) of the season. The girls are pretty level-headed.

It was exciting at first to be top-ranked, but now they are just focusing on what they have to do.

“They know we have a lot of hard matches ahead of us. Being No. 1 doesn’t win you anything and you have a target on your back.”

Davis, however, likes playing as the state’s top-ranked team and knows the upcoming schedule is tough. ”It’s pretty awesome,” she said. “We worked really hard for this and we’re ready for state. The schedule is going to bring us a lot of competition and we’ll have to bring our A game. We’re all excited about it. We’re kind of nervous but we are ready to go after it.”

VALOR CHRISTIAN ROLLS ON

Mullen cracks Valor softball’s winning streak Softball teams across Colorado head into regional playoff action

Valor Christian’s softball team got a wake-up call a week before state playoffs begin.

Mullen, ranked third in the CSHAANow.com Class 4A poll, snapped the 33-game winning streak of the top-ranked Eagles with a 4-3 win in the regularseason finale Oct. 8 on the Mustangs’ field.

Eight regional, four-team state playoff regional tournaments in Class 3A, 4A and 5A will take place Oct. 15 with two teams from each region advancing to the state tournament, which will be held Oct. 21-22 at the Aurora Sports Complex.

Valor, the two-time defending Class 4A state champions, has gone 65-3 over three seasons, and the Eagles feel comfortable taking one loss in the state tournament, which they have done the past two seasons “Last year we lost one game in the regular season and came back,” said Valor coach Dave Atencio. “Same thing two years ago. They will bounce back. This loss wakes us up a little bit and refocuses us. And, it was great timing with the state regional tournaments starting.”

The top eight teams, according to the RPI standings, earned host roles for the regional tournaments.

In Class 5A, Douglas County, Legend and Arvada West earned the right to play host to a region-

al tournament. Douglas County will hold the Region 4 tournament at the Metzler complex in Castle Rock and the Region 6 tourney hosted by Legend will be the Salisbury fields in Parker.

Familiar look to state tennis tournament Falcons Continued from Page 26

Cherry Creek again poised for a championship

Kobe Eller had similar comments.

“It was a great night for me and it was a great night for our team,” he said. “I have to give a lot of the credit for our success moving the ball to the offensive line. The Lakewood defense used a lot of different fronts and rushing schemes but our guys handled them, stayed on their assignments, so things were clicking for us.”

Eller said it was a special game because he played for Lakewood youth football teams with a lot of the guys across the line from him. He said having a good night for the Falcons felt great personally and he knew it was a great win for his team.

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Not much appears to have changed this fall.

Cherry Creek and Fairview head into the boys Class 5A state tennis tournament as the teams to beat.

The Class 5A tournament will be played Oct. 13-15 at the Gates Tennis Center in Denver, while the 4A tournament is set for the same days at Pueblo City Park.

Cherry Creek has won 41 state championships and the Bruins are the five-time defending champs.

In each of the past five seasons, Fairview has finished second to the Bruins.

In the Region 1 qualifying tournament, Creek swept all the titles in the seven divisions and will have 11 players in the state brackets.

Fairview will send all 11 of its players to the Gates Tennis Center while Heritage, Ponderosa, Grand Junction and Mountain Vista qualified enough players to be contenders.

The following are the local qualifiers for the Class 5A and 4A state tennis tournaments: Arapahoe: No. 1 singles - Tyler Landen, Soph. (8-3); No. 1 doubles - Nick Stephenson, Soph. and Jake Hall, Soph. (7-4); No. 2 doubles - Garrett Lumley, Sr. and Simon Alger, Sr. (10-1); No. 3 doubles - Kirk Zieser, Jr. and Jay Kikkeri, Jr. (8-3); No. 4 doubles - Chase Wern, Fr. and AJ Nelson, Soph. (9-2).

Cherry Creek: No. 1 singles Ethan Hillis, Sr. (12-5); No. 2 singles - Robby Hill, Sr., (14-3); No. 3 singles - Alex Gordon, Fr., (11-5); No. 1 doubles - Jacob Bendalin, Sr. and Ben Murray, Jr. (14-3); No. 2 doubles - Sam Angell, Jr. and Drew Hill, Soph. (16-2); No. 3 doubles - Stone

Highlands Ranch Herald 29

Going forward The win over Lakewood raised Highlands Ranch’s overall record to 4-2 and their first win over a league opponent earned them a share of the top spot in the Class 5A Mount Lincoln League. The Falcons have four games remaining on the schedule and all are against league opponents.

Players, coaches and spectators helped remove water from courts on the second day, Oct. 6, of the Region 1 Class 5A tennis championships held at Cherry Creek High School. Photo by Jim Benton Heyman, Jr. and Nick Eidler, Jr. (152); No. 4 doubles - Zach Smith, Jr. and Nick Svichar, Fr. (17-0).

Legend: No. 4 doubles - Luke Lyman, Sr. and Luke Grant, Jr. (5-8).

Softball Continued from Page 28

Fifth-seed Wheat Ridge (13-6-0) faces No. 28 Pueblo Centennial (6-12-1) as host for Region 3 and No. 16 Golden (14-5-0) faces the challenge of playing No. 17 Berthoud (12-7-0) in the Region 1, Class 4A tourney in Erie.

Advancing to the state playoffs was an accomplishment for Arvada. The Bulldogs are 11-8-0 this season and the most wins Arvada managed in a single season over the previous seven years was six.

Arvada, seeded No. 29, plays No. 4 Pueblo West (15-30) in the Region 4 tourney at Runyon Field in Pueblo and No. 22 Ponderosa (9-10-0) will open against No. 11 Frederick (12-7-0) in the Region 6 event hosted by Mountain View at the Barnes Softball Complex in Loveland. No. 23 Holy Family (11-8-0) meets No. 10 Air Academy (14-4-0) in the Region 7 meet at Garden Acres Park in Longmont.

Twenty-four teams qualifyied for the Class 3A playoffs and No. 14 Faith Christian (10-9-0) plays No. 19 St. Mary’s (10-9-0) in the Region 3 tournament, while No. 7 The Academy (15-4-0) will be at home to play the winner of the Cedaredge-Akron game in the Region 7 tournament.

Two fields must be available for a school to host a regional tournament so all the sites have yet to be determined.

U.S. Mail or “hand delivered” to a Douglas

October 13, 2016

Homeless County officials first started talking to area churches two years ago about the need for a shelter.

Rand Clark, a community of care navigator with the Douglas County Department of Community Development who helped coordinate the network, said it was a big ask of the faith community.

But, he said, it rose to the occasion.

The network started with four churches, including Southeast Christian, that met every four to six weeks. Now, eight churches have committed to be shelters with others promising volunteers and assistance.

“It has been amazing to see the churches in Douglas County work together,” DeVries said. “It’s so good to know that we have a solution — or at least an option.”

“

The need exists Douglas County has the fourth highest median household income of all counties in the U.S. with a population of at least 65,000, according to the 2015 American Community Survey 1-Year Estimates. It also has the lowest poverty rate for all U.S. counties of the same parameters.

But the glossy statistics hide a homeless population that isn’t visible in ways people generally expect, Clark said.

For example, he said, the county’s homeless are frequently couch surfing, living in their cars or being temporarily housed with hotel vouchers from various agencies. They also might include the hundreds of Douglas County students classified as homeless. In the 2014-15 school year, 637 students were reported as homeless, according to school district numbers.

“Here, it’s in many ways, hidden poverty,” said Rochelle Blaschke Schlortt, chief communications officer with Catholic Charities of Central Colorado, one of the agencies that will refer people to the shelter network. “It’s not zero.”

Clark said the county hopes the program also will provide newer and better data about the county’s homeless population.

Individuals at severe risk of domestic violence will be referred to a domestic violence shelter.

The program houses only women and children. Those hoping to stay with the family’s father may be given hotel vouchers rather than housed at one of the churches, although that can’t be guaranteed because of hotel costs.

The church network can accommodate about 40 families a night. They can stay for up to 31 days. For some, that’s enough time to earn some life-changing savings, Clark said. For others, it means 31 days they don’t spend sleeping in their car.

Food and other services will be funded in part by the churches, but are largely reliant on donated supplies and volunteer time.

PUBLIC NOTICE The churches are excited to take on the challenge.
