Officials warn of measles exposure A baby with the virus reportedly had been inside businesses in Lone Tree and Highlands Ranch Staff report The Tri-County Health Department says an infant infected with measles may have recently exposed people to the virus at various locations in the south metro area. Anyone who has been in proximity with the baby has been contacted, and Executive Director Dr. John Douglas said the remaining risk is “extremely low.” People may have been exposed at Kumon Math and Reading Center of Highlands Ranch at 9362 S. Colorado Blvd. on July 8 and July 11, King Soopers at 9551 S. University Blvd. and Panda Express at 9563 S. University Blvd. on July 11, Target at 10001 Commons St. in Lone Tree on July 12, Sky Ridge Pediatric Emergency Department at 10107 Ridgegate Parkway in Lone Tree and the Pediatric Unit at Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children at Presbyterian St. Luke’s at 2001 High St. in Denver. Measles can be spread by coughing and sneezing and is dangerous to infants too young to be vaccinated, people with compromised immune systems and people who have not been immunized. Complications include ear infections, pneumonia and encephalitis. Symptoms typically begin seven to 14 days after exposure and include fever of 101 degrees or higher, runny nose, red eyes, sensitivity to light, coughing and a rash on the face and body.

Senior-living facility nearly done MorningStar expects to hold grand opening in December By Rick Gustafson Special to Colorado Community Media Lone Tree retirees will soon have a new place to call home as the com-
pletion of the MorningStar Senior Living at RidgeGate draws near. The new facility will offer three options for seniors depending on their individual needs, including 124 independent-living apartments, 71 assisted-living apartments and 29 secure suites in the memory-care wing. “We have the perfect location for
an urban community,” said Cindylee Bennet, director of community relations for MorningStar at RidgeGate. “We have all the amenities around us.” Located across the street from both the Lone Tree Arts Center and Facility continues on Page 4
Caddies take the road less traveled Carrying a golf bag for money often a labor of love By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Carmen Garcia is enjoying her second year as a caddie. “The opportunity was offered to me... and I thought it was interesting and different,” said Garcia, a sophomore-to-be at St. Mary’s Academy in Cherry Hills Village. “I never played golf but I’m getting the hang of caddying.” Garcia is among the dozens of youths taking part in the Solich Caddie and Leadership Academy at CommonGround Golf Course in Aurora. The academy is part of an effort by the Colorado Golf Association to keep caddies in the game. Caddies, while very visible on the
professional tours, seem to belong to a bygone era when it comes to amateur golf, where most players opt to traverse the course in a cart. But in the Denver metro area, the trade of carrying a golf bag for money is amid something of a resurgence. Jake Pendergast, who will be a junior at Regis Jesuit, is a caddie at Colorado Golf Club in Parker. “I picked up caddying because I love golf and learning about the game,” he said. “There’s not too many ways to make money and have fun. Caddying is fun.” The evolution Caddies go back to the beginning of golf. Historians believe that Mary, Queen of Scots, came up with the term caddying in the late 16th century. She grew up in France, where military cadets carried golf clubs for royalty.
The game began to rise in popularity in the United States in the 1900s and caddies were a fixture on public and private courses alike — for at least the first Caddies continues on Page 26

CHANCE TO FLY AGAIN
S
ix residents of MorningStar Assisted Living Facility in Littleton got the chance to fly in a 1942 Boeing Stearman at Centennial Airport on July 8. The trips were arranged by the Ageless Aviation Dreams Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing seniors and veterans living in long-term care facilities with a dream flight in a vintage plane. The Boeing Stearman was used to train military aviators in the late 1930s and early 1940s. The residents — five men and one woman — ranged in age from 65 to 92 years old and all served in the military.
As crew chief Lynn Sommars double checks his harness, World War II veteran Felix (last name not provided) gives a quick “thumbs up” to the crowd as he readies to depart the Signature Flight Support executive terminal, at Centennial Airport, for a dream flight in an open-cockpit biplane.

new Lone Tree library, the facility is also within walking distance to shopping and restaurants, a few blocks from Sky Ridge Medical Center and a short drive to Park Meadows mall. For those requiring more individualized attention, a secure memory center provides a specialized wing for residents with memory impairment or dementia. The wing has its own dedicated garden. And, according to Bennett, Morning-
Star does not cut back on the “feeling of home” because residents in the memory care wing might not “need” some amenities. “The design of the apartments in the assisted living and memory center is the same as the rest of the facility for the consistency of all the residents and their families,” Bennett said. For the safety of residents, kitchens in the memory centers are not equipped with cooking appliances such as microwaves, ovens or stovetops. According to 2015 U.S. Census numbers, 14.7 percent of Lone Tree’s population is 60 or older. By 2030, about one in four residents countywide will be 60

or older, projects the Douglas County Senior Initiative, a partnership of Douglas County government agencies. Construction on the RidgeGate facility began in February 2015 and is scheduled to be completed in time for a grand opening in December. Bennett anticipates that a majority of new residents will move in right after the New Year holiday. More than 60 percent of the independent living apartments have already been reserved, and the company is keeping its sales office open seven days per week to accommodate interest. Monthly rents range from $3,075 to $6,600. MorningStar operates 18 facilities in seven states in the Rocky Mountain
region, and the RidgeGate residence is the newest of 11 senior living facilities along the Eastern Slope from Colorado Springs to Fort Collins. The company is also opening a new facility in Phoenix in 2016 and recently broke ground on another senior living complex in Aurora. Bennett also said that with opening day approaching, MorningStar at RidgeGate has started its search for qualified staff to fill a variety of roles from maintenance workers and caregivers, to restaurant staff and a concierge. “Working with seniors requires a calling, and we hire for heart,” Bennett said. “We can train for most jobs, but finding people with the right heart is key.”
Now in its 88th year, Western Welcome Week began as “Homecoming,” providing an opportunity for family and friends to gather. Over the years Western Welcome Week has grown to a 10-day celebration with over 40 events and involving events presented by over 30 organizations. These organizations help to create the honored tradition of Western Welcome Week.

Former senator’s life, passion remembered Thousands gather for funeral to remember Bill Armstrong By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com William L. Armstrong is remembered as a man of success — in business, politics, family and faith. The theme of his funeral service was a phrase he often recited: “Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.” “There’s no more fitting theme to Bill’s life,” said Cherri Parks, vice president of academic affairs of Colorado Christian University, “no more fitting theme to this service.” Parks delivered the eulogy at Armstrong’s funeral service on July 15 at Cherry Hills Community Church in Highlands Ranch. Thousands of guests, including political leaders, businesspeople and Christian families, gathered in the church’s auditorium to honor the life of the former U.S. senator, who died July 5 at the age of 79 following a five-year battle with cancer. The church’s auditorium radiated rich hues of blue with two photos of the political leader sitting center stage. A remembrance video kicked off the service with a recollection of memories, political milestones and personal tributes. The day of the service marked the 54th wedding anniversary of Armstrong and his wife, Ellen. He’s survived by her, their two children and eight grandchildren. Armstrong’s death marked “a five-year fight with cancer but more importantly, a life well lived,” Parks said at the service. Armstrong served in the state House (1963-64) and state Senate (1965-72), before serving in the U.S. House (197379) and Senate (1979-1991). During his tenure in the U.S. Senate, Armstrong was a member of the finance, budget and banking committees and spent six years as chairman of the Republican Policy Committee. He was also a man of many business endeavors: • Armstrong landed his first real job as a radio disc jockey at 11 years old. He then pursued an interest in broadcast and served as the president of Denver radio stations KEZW and KOSI-FM. • He worked in several different businesses with his son Wil, including Cherry Creek Mortgage Company. • He was the founder and chairman of Blueberry Systems, a financial software solution company, and the director of several public companies, including Oppenheimer Funds and International Family Entertainment Inc. • Armstrong served as president of Colorado Christian University in Lakewood since 2006 — although he never graduated from college. “It was the last thing on Bill’s mind when he was approached to become the president of Colorado Christian University,” Parks said, fighting back tears. “He called his work at the university ‘the most significant, energizing and rewarding work I’ve ever undertaken.’” In February, Armstrong announced he

Hundreds of guests fill Cherry Hills Community Church on July 15 to honor former senator and Colorado Christian University president Bill Armstrong, who died at 79 on July 5. He leaves “thousands of people who respect and admire him,” said Cherri Parks, vice president of academic affairs of Colorado Christian University. would be retiring as president of Colorado Christian later this year. Armstrong’s daughter, Anne Armstrong Nordby, remembered her father as a humorous man devoted to his faith and family. He enjoyed ice cream for dinner, she said. He considered his dog the world’s
most wonderful canine. He made his family laugh every single day. And he took care of them every single day. “He had a way of making you feel like you were the most important person in the room and he was really glad to be with you,” she said. “And guess what — he was.”

New rules would limit growing of marijuana Ordinance would set cap of 12 plants per home By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com An ordinance being considered by the Douglas County Board of Commissioners would limit the number of marijuana plants being grown at a primary residence. The three commissioners voted unanimously July 12 to put regulations on growing, cultivating and processing marijuana in unincorporated Douglas County. The ordinance will go to second reading Aug. 9 at the 2:30 p.m. public hearing. “I think we’ve come up with a great solution … considering the failure of the Legislature to deal with this issue,” Commissioner Jill Repella said. “(The ordinance) does not strip the rights of people who have the right to use marijuana according to our state constitution, but it puts some reasonable parameters around what people do.” Douglas County has already prohibited commercial marijuana operations, but per state law, the county cannot prohibit non-commercial individual grow operations. The ordinance, which was presented to the board by Chief Deputy Steve Johnson of the Douglas County Sheriffs Office, focuses on several key areas: where marijuana can be grown; plant limits per home; a ban on compressed, flammable gas and flammable liquids; the smell or odor produced; and growing at a rental property. The key element of the ordinance, however, is the regulation on the number of plants allowed at a single residence.
C A S T L E
Amendment 64, which was passed by Colorado voters in 2012, allows an individual to home-grow six marijuana plants at a time. But state medical marijuana laws, laid out in 2000 with Amendment 20, allows a caregiver to grow up to 99 plants depending on the number of patients and physician prescriptions, according to Mark Salley, of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, which regulates medical marijuana. As of May, Colorado had 106,066 active medical marijuana patients. The Douglas County regulations would cap the number of plants allowed at any state of maturity to 12 plants per household, whether the growing is done by patients, caregivers or for personal use. One plant can produce a pound a marijuana and it takes 90 days for a marijuana plant to grow to maturity. In 2013, Denver City Council put a 12-plant ban into effect for households within city limits. Some residents in Douglas County said they are concerned about the scope of pot-growing operations, which can increase based on the number of adults in a household and the combination of growing recreational and medical marijuana. Several people voiced their concerns at the July 12 commission meeting and have complained to the sheriff’s office. The top complaints from residents who live next to homes where marijuana is grown are the stench, traffic and general appearance of the home, Johnson said. Gretchen Owens, of Castle Pines Village, said the odors emitted by her neighbor’s grow house are so foul that the wildlife doesn’t come around anymore.
July 21, 2016
An official complaint logged with the sheriff’s office in Highlands Ranch called the odor “unbearable.” And said, “it’s just not fair for my children.” While the skunk-like smell is one of the elements to be regulated with the new ordinance, Johnson said the main concern is safety. Major electrical modifications to homes, along with pesticide use and high-intensity heat lamps, make homes that grow marijuana a higher risk for fire, Johnson said. Marilyn Parker, a Larkspur resident, said having regulations in place, such as the ones the county is considering, will make her feel safer. “The ordinance is extremely important to put bumpers around what has not been taken care of,” she said. “We will not have to live in fear, our houses not going up in fire and the cartels coming in and being a source of danger for us.” Johnson said that while he is not prepared to call them cartels, there is a concern in Douglas County of individuals organized for an enterprise. “You have individuals who are trying to make a dollar, so they convert their home and they grow marijuana plants,” Johnson said. “They ship them out of state, where you can’t get them legally, where it pays top dollar. And every 90 days, you may be supplementing your income.” Johnson said that once the Douglas County ordinance is in place, it will give the sheriff’s office more leverage to address the messes of marijuana and the grows at unreasonable levels. If the ordinance is passed in August, violations will constitute a class 2 petty offense and be punishable by a fine of $1,000 for each violation, per each day that the violation exists.

Helping families get ‘over the hump’ Douglas County church fights food insecurity with free grocery ‘store’ By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Many Douglas County residents don’t realize some of the people closest to them are skipping meals or choosing between paying for medicine, rent or food. Robert Peterson wants them to know that hunger and food insecurity are very real problems, and that he and others are there to help. “The biggest thing is recognizing the need in Douglas County. Most of us in Highlands Ranch don’t realize our neighbors are going hungry,” Peterson said. As pastor of outreach for Valley View Christian Church, Peterson oversees Valley View Cares, a free grocery “store” inside the church that operates every Friday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Since May 20, the church near the intersection of Santa Fe Drive and Titan Parkway has been inviting people to take a grocery cart and peruse the store’s shelves, taking what they need to provide nutritious, satisfying meals for their families. The program is open to everyone, not

The interview process appraises clients’ financial needs to help them create a successful budget. Photo by Tom Skelley only residents of Douglas County. Clients have come from Littleton, Aurora, Elbert County and other areas. Peterson acknowledges that residents of Douglas County — which has a median household income of about $103,000 — have a high standard of living and most don’t have to worry about hunger. But he
also knows they aren’t invulnerable. “Life happens,” he said. “You have no idea what someone is going through… A death in the family, someone’s lost their job… We want to help those families get over the hump. This gives them the margin to pay their rent, pay for medicine.” Statistics on food insecurity back up
Peterson’s statement. Numbers from the hunger relief nonprofit Feeding America show that 27,780 people in Douglas County, or 9.3 percent of residents, faced food insecurity in 2014. Douglas County doesn’t have any food banks west of Highlands Ranch, Peterson says, indicating the need for Valley View Cares’ services. “They’re surprised at the amount they can take, they’re surprised they can choose their own stuff,” Peterson said of people who come to Valley View Cares for the first time. “The biggest thing is getting items they know they’ll use rather than just a box of food they may or may not want.” Food for the store’s shelves comes from the Food Bank of the Rockies and Southeast Community Outreach in Parker, and church food drives and donations from local groceries supplement the store’s supply. Church members help clients complete an intake interview, taking into account family size and financial factors such as income, credit card and mortgage payments, and other variables. A separate team within the church devises a financial plan to create a budget and help clients improve their situation while they Church continues on Page 9

Charlene Voight recently moved to Littleton from Southern California Staff report The Littleton Police Department has opened a criminal investigation into the disappearance of a missing woman, and her boyfriend is in custody on suspicion of unrelated charges, according to department spokesman Cmdr. Trent Cooper. Charlene Roxanne Voight, 36, was reported missing on July 8 after Voight her family had not heard from her in several days. Her boyfriend, Jeffrey Scott Beier, is being held at the Arapahoe County Jail on $100,000 bond on suspicion of sexual assault. The department, along with the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office, Colorado Bureau of Investigation and
18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office, is investigating her disappearance. Her vehicle has been located and a possible crime scene at 5099 S. Rio Grande St. is being investigated, according to a police department news relase. Cooper said Voight and Beier were staying at a nearby apartment complex with a friend. On July 18, Voight’s sister posted a plea for help on Facebook. “My family and I have still not heard from my sister, Charlene Voight,” wrote Marilyn Voight, who lives in San Clemente, California. “We are extremely worried and concerned. Anyone who has any information in regards to my sister’s whereabouts or if they have seen or heard from her since June 29th, please reach out to us or the Littleton Police in Colorado.

people as possible. More than 20 families currently use the program, but Peterson says they have the resources to help many more. He says the store presently can serve up to 100 families and would be able to increase resources to serve even more. To some it may appear Valley View Cares is helping people who don’t need it as much as people living on the street or in a shelter. The program has no minimum or maximum income for participants, and most of the program’s clients drive themselves to the church, sometimes in expensive vehicles. The interview process and ongoing financial assessments weed out the disingenuous, Peterson says, and he adds that he doesn’t worry about scammers as much as he worries about people who need the help but are too proud to use it. “There are those people who will try to take advantage, but I’d rather err on the side of generosity than on the side of judging people,” he said. “I think (the problem) is the opposite. My heart breaks for the people who are afraid to walk through that door.”

receive food from Valley View Cares. Most “customers” visit the store twice a month. Responsible for “keeping all of this beautiful” is market manager Gala Compton. She makes the trip to Southeast Community Outreach each week to select and transport the food back to Valley View Cares. Compton says she relishes giving clients more than just food. “We want this to be a pleasant experience,” she said. “People just need to be spoiled. I’d like them to feel a little spoiled, but in a good way — spoiled with love.” Making the experience inviting is important, Peterson said, because he wants clients to come back. More than that, he wants them to spread the word to other families who may need the help. Compton and Peterson want Valley View Cares to expand their services to as many
HUNGER IN DOUGLAS COUNTY Percentage of residents facing food insecurity Colorado: 12.9 percent
According to Feeding America, food insecurity is a problem almost 28,000 Douglas County residents and 1 in 7 Americans face.
Douglas County: 9.3 percent (Feeding America)
Food Insecurity The USDA defines it as a state in which “consistent access to adequate food is limited by a lack of money and other resources… A household is food insecure if, in the previous year, they experienced limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate foods.”
Money on the table In Douglas County:
Characteristics of food insecurity include: • Worrying that your family will run out of food
• 5,572 residents are enrolled in food assistance programs. This represents only 38 percent of those who are eligible. (Feeding America)
• Not being able to afford healthy food or cook balanced meals
• $14.9 million in lost grocery sales. (Hunger Free Colorado)
• Eating but being hungry at the end of the meal
Lost grocery sales are the total amount of dollars that could have been spent if all eligible residents utilized food assistance benefits. Ellie Agar of Hunger Free Colorado says the statistic also represents money that would have gone into local economies, providing more revenue and jobs for food retailers.
• Eating only one or two meals a day • Going an entire day without eating, sometimes more than once a week • Not knowing how or if you will be able to afford food

If you don’t want to lose it — use it Have you ever heard that saying, “Use it or lose it?” It is probably one of those messages we have all heard time and time again, so much so that maybe it has lost some of its power or meaning, or we have conditioned ourselves to ignore it. It is like when we do not use our creativity, our minds can become dull. When we do not work out, our muscles can atrophy or shrink. We either “use it or lose it.” How many of us have bookshelves or libraries in our home or office filled with books we have never read? Maybe we have downloaded a vast library of books onto our Kindle or other e-reading device. We have had the very best of intentions to read the books when we purchased them or received them as a gift, but somehow or somewhere along the busy highway of life, the books have become part of the decor as opposed to providing us with a source of education, information or entertainment. This “use it or lose it” scenario always reminds me of something that Zig Ziglar used to say all the time, “People who do not read are no better off than the people that can’t read.” What about our home gym equipment? The same can be said of that for many of us. Perhaps you have a treadmill, some weights, a stair-stepper or total gym in your home. This equipment may be in your basement or garage, or maybe even in your office so you can get your workout in while working. Are
we using the equipment for working out or has it also become part of the decor? I have seen in some homes and offices where the gym equipment became another place to store things or hang the laundry on. And how many ads do we see where Michael Norton people are trying to WINNING sell their “almost new” or “like new” gym WORDS equipment? Go to any garage sale and there is probably better than a 50/50 chance that you will find sort of gym equipment for sale. Now what about our network? Many of us have a social network that we are a part of or a business community that we work in and support. Do we tap into our friends when we are needing support or help? Or do we try and get through the tough times alone? Do we energize others or become energized by sharing our successes and celebrating our wins with those closest to us? As part of a business community we have associates and customers. If we do not actively pursue growth opportunities, seek referrals or new opportunities we can certainly fall into the trap of “using it or losing it.” I
was speaking with one of my customers who is a sales professional. She shared with me that she had stopped asking her clients for referrals. Not because she didn’t know how, she just became complacent about it. Her wake-up call came when she finally remembered to ask a good customer for a referral only to be told that they had just referred someone else to their contacts. One of the things I enjoy most in my network is the time I spend with people whom I know I can learn from. My trusted advisers and people who give me great ideas when we have a chance to brainstorm is one way that I maximize my network and keep myself sharp. Whether it’s our creativity and our minds, our bodies or our connections, if we do not use what we have right in front of us, we will lose it as any area that is ignored and stays ignored will atrophy. So how about you? Are you “using it or losing it”? Are your books, gym equipment and networks collecting dust? I would love to hear all about how you are maximizing everything at your fingertips at gotonorton@ gmail.com, and when we make the most of what we have, it really will be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

It is never comforting when you hear Wall Street analysts predict high volatility, belowaverage earnings and continued uncertainty around the globe. This would be enough to cause any investor to stick their head in the sand for Patricia Kummer a few years and see if FINANCIAL things get better later. But you can’t be STRATEGIES Rip Van Winkle or an ostrich. Investors need to work at earning money every day. Whether your goal is in a few years or a few decades, decisions in 2016 could affect you indefinitely. Last month we learned that static allocations alone may not be enough to reduce the new risks that are creeping into accounts due to global issues. Since that last article we had Britain vote to leave the European Union and, with that, triple-digit market volatility for several weeks. Last week we had an unusual jobs report for June, showing 287,000 new nonfarm jobs created after a disappointing May report of only 38,000 new jobs. These extreme fluctuations in just two months’ time put the markets into another whirlwind. Now we are entering earnings season once again, where major companies report their second-quarter earnings and forecast for the remainder of the year. The last four consecutive quarters, earnings have been negative. This equates to an “earnings recession” which can pull back the possibility of good returns on equity investments in the near term. This quarter, the reports are expected to be “less negative.” This is a new term we are learning to mean as a good thing. However, less of a vacuum is still a difficult environment. As dismal as these economic indicators appear so far, there is always opportunity somewhere. Growth is the necessary fuel for the economic engine that moves us forward, Kummer continues on Page 11

‘So’ is so, well, so, when it’s not so-so So, how’s your cat? Certain words are reborn from time to time, and get used over and over. And over. “So” is one of them. I am so honored, so thrilled, and so Craig Marshall Smith happy. And you may have noticed QUIET that “so” is being DESPERATION used a lot lately to begin a sentence. “Transparency” is still having its day. It’s understandable, because the synonyms are inconvenient. For example: “pellucidity.” Instead of explaining why someone or something is superior, we chose the word “arguably” to cover everything, as in, “She is arguably the best ventriloquist in Castle Rock.” You can just leave it at that, and not go
into any depth. It’s awesome, dog. The word “about” is very handy too. A friend of mine said, “It’s not about the penguins. It’s about you and Jennifer.” I said, “I thought it was about the penguins, but you’re saying that it’s about Jennifer and me? I am going to have to think about this.” Any seemingly unusual experience is “surreal.” Salvador Dali was a surrealist. He was once asked if he took drugs, because his paintings seemed so, well, surreal. His answer was perfect. “I am drugs,” he said. Movie promotions say things like, “Daniel Craig is James Bond.” “Kirk Douglas is Spartacus.” “Patty Duke is Helen Keller.” How can that be? It’s an attempt to convince an audience in advance that a portrayal surpasses metaphysics and the laws of reality. I am happy just to be me, but now and then I wouldn’t mind being Anne Hathaway.

Federal funds had too many strings attached Something very courageous happened at a recent Douglas County commissioners’ hearing. Colorado Community Media reported that at a June 28 hearing, Commissioners Roger Partridge and David Weaver voted “no” to accepting federal Housing and Urban Development Community Development Block Grant monies. In the past, CDBG funds have been distributed to a variety of nonprofit and non-governmental entities throughout Douglas County. Both commissioners voiced their concerns of the far-reaching rules, regulations and compliance requirements hidden deep within HUD’s updated CDBG application. Included in HUD’s application are two things that should cause each of us to pause. The first is the language of “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing” (AFFH). In essence, AFFH gives politicians and bureaucrats in Washington, D.C., the power to make zoning decisions for our neighborhoods and communities based on complex, regional, demographic and income parameters. It requires our communities to pay for assessments and reporting mechanisms while obligating our citizens to either redirect or raise local taxes to bring
neighborhoods into regional compliance. Under AFFH, “if you like your neighborhood, you may not be able to keep your neighborhood.” Secondly, Weaver (former Douglas County sheriff) voiced his concerns about the language Kim Monson inserted into the CDBG application GUEST that says police COLUMN agencies “must have excessive force rules in place.” Such policies will cause our police officers to “think twice” as they “serve and protect” our communities. Ultimately, this results in less safe communities and increased danger to our peace officers. He also noted that the commissioners do not have jurisdiction over police forces. It is not the role of the federal government to dictate policy on local police issues. I care deeply about my neighbors and
communities and have volunteered with multiple organizations over the years. Several considerations come to mind as we look at these CDBG grants: While helping others is indeed a noble cause and Americans are among the most generous people in the world, “forced charity” by politicians & bureaucrats is neither noble nor charitable. It is unfair that government picks which entities receive CDBG funds (winners) and which don’t (losers). The Colorado Community Media article references the Douglas County Housing Partnership programs. While well-intentioned, the actual effects of such programs disincentivize our young people and makes it more expensive for our middle class to pursue their hopes and dreams. Under “affordable housing” programs, two people may pay differing rents for the same apartment depending on their incomes. How is this fair? If we are serious about making housing more affordable, we need to reduce rules and regulations. The Wall Street Journal recently reported that government compliance costs are increasing the cost of new
homes by 24.3 percent. Think how many more young people could move out of their parent’s basements if the cost of housing was reduced by just 20 percent. Lastly, per the CDBG agreement, each entity may take up to 20 percent of awarded funds for administration. In 2015, Douglas County used 15.7 percent for administration. Douglas County staff recommended distribution of $732,365 to 15 projects in 2016. Assuming 15.7 percent administrative fees and assuming tax funds go through four entities (IRS, HUD, Douglas County and grantees), $1,222,488.71 must be taken from taxpayers to get $617,383.69 to the recipients of these programs. Private individuals funding private charities and businesses are much more efficient. The issue is complicated. Thank you to Partridge and Weaver for making the difficult decisions necessary for the well-being of our community.

so groovy to say.” I have always thought that the lyrics were actually mocking the performers and the music. For instance, the Mamas and Papas are commended “when (their) words don’t get in the way.” The song wraps up with horrific references to Donovan and the Beatles, and “I dig, oh, rock and roll music, I could really get it on in that scene.” It’s torture. I began this because there is a word that is going around and around that I wish would take a holiday. Namely “icon.” That’s the Word of the Day. What does it take to qualify? I am an icon to my dog. Have you heard of Mallory Pugh yet? She’s was a local high school soccer icon. There is much more of Pugh on the way. Then there are the iconic icons.

pays down debt and allows for expansion. Consumers may be losing patience as this has been one of the longest recoveries in history, 27 quarters so far. It feels like a slow uphill battle at a snail’s pace, but we are making progress. The bright spots are improving employment, solid housing prices and continued low inflation and low interest rates. The Brexit pushed back the Federal Reserve Board’s decision to increase interest rates last month along with some countries in Europe issuing bonds at negative interest rates. This has caused significant fluctuations in U.S. bond prices, and yields hit an all-time low. Investor demand from around the world pushed domestic bond prices higher as fewer Europeans wanted to invest in negative bonds of their own. This makes owning equities a bit more attractive than fixed income given these circumstances.
Keep in mind that equities are a longterm solution as volatility remains escalated especially during earnings season and Fed rate hike uncertainty. One of the best outlooks may be in Emerging Markets, in particular China. Their economic recovery could be a significant driver of worldwide growth over the next five to 10 years. You deserve to have a custom strategy based on your goals and time frame to help navigate these unprecedented times. Don’t guess … it could be an expensive lesson.

Fitness comes to breweries Trainers behind Brewery Boot Camp say the whole point of fitness is being able to enjoy a beer

F
or personal trainers Paul and Lindsay Chavez, physical fitness is important. But so is enjoying your life. “You can’t be physically fit, if you’re not mentally fit,” Paul said. That’s the idea that led him and his wife, Lindsay, to bring their full-body workout classes to breweries around the metro area through their company, Strength Train 4 Life. “If you can’t enjoy a good beer,” Paul said, “it’s not worth it.” Plenty of people agree. Back when the Chavezes ran workouts for groups of their friends in parks on weekends, they noticed a trend. “Afterwards, everybody would go get beers,” Lindsay said. In December of last year, the couple held their first Brewery Boot Camp event at Dry Dock Brewing Company in Aurora, where they live. Since then, they’ve held workouts nearly every weekend at different breweries, including St. Patrick’s Brewing Company and 38 State Brewing Company in Littleton, Lone Tree Brewing Company in Lone Tree and Elk Mountain Brewing in Parker. “We eventually want to be in the whole Denver area,” Lindsay said. Paul and Lindsay both have bachelor’s degrees in health and exercise science. They also are homebrewers, so combining the two seemed natural. In a blog post on their website last month, they offered tips on following a healthy diet and workout plan without completely cutting out alcohol, reminding readers that alcohol is a sugar and to consume in moderation. At their home base of Dry Dock, the Chavezes typically draw about 35
BREW RUNS COMBINE RUNNING AND BEER Strength Train 4 Life’s Brewery Boot Camps are not the Denver-area’s only option for those who wish to combine working out and drinking beer. Rocky Mountain Brew Runs pair familyfriendly, dog-friendly 5K runs with events at breweries that include fitness challenges and food trucks. Brew Runs come to the south metro area on Sept. 11 with a run at Littleton’s St. Patrick’s Brewing Company. Entry to the run is $25 and includes a beer, a sticker and a coaster. For more information, visit www.rockymountainbrewruns.com. participants. About 15 showed up to a workout at 38 State on Memorial Day weekend. Participants have ranged in age from too young to buy a beer up to the mid-70s. Breweries typically open at
noon on Sundays, so the Chavezes and their clients meet at 11 a.m., warm up and then go into a 50-minute workout. “We’re ready to drink beer at noon right when the brewery opens,” Lindsay said. It’s a symbiotic relationship with the breweries. Steve Schuett, general manager of 38 State, said the bootcamps help boost their numbers on Sundays. “It is a perfect event for our space and patrons,” he said. Jodi Levine of Denver, who participated in the Memorial Day weekend workout at 38 State, had been to one of Brewery Boot Camp’s workouts at Dry Dock as well. “I think it’s awesome, and you get a reward afterward,” she said as she stretched before beginning the workout. Like Levine, many participants have returned multiple times. Steve and Angie Mueting of Aurora, visiting 38 State for the first time, have been to several boot camps.
BREWERY BOOT CAMP SCHEDULE Paul and Lindsay Chavez hold Brewery Boot Camp nearly every weekend at different breweries throughout the area. They return to St. Patrick’s Brewing Company in Littleton on July 24, followed by 38 State Brewing Company on July 31 and Lone Tree Brewing Company on Aug. 7. For more information, visit www.strength train4life.com. “The workouts kick your butt,” Angie said. But they’re not so hard as to scare away the uninitiated. The workouts feature mostly bodyweight movements, with some kettlebell or medicine ball activities. “We want to be able to cater to all fitness levels,” Paul said. At 38 State, participants spent 50 minutes cycling through 15 stations, using the inside of the brewery, the patio and the parking lot. Moving to a new station about halfway through the workout, Steve Mueting was winded. “I’ve been doing too much breweries and not enough boot camp,” he said. But after the workout, it was time for a beer or two — at a discounted price. “I usually go for an amber or a red,” Steve Mueting said, before ordering the 38 State Red. The workout also passed the test for Martino Martinez of Highlands Ranch, a personal trainer with South Suburban Parks and Recreation District. “It was awesome,” he said. “A total body workout — and a beer after.”

Protest music contains songs of immediacy not poison, no I am not poison/Just a boy from the hood that/Got my hands in the air.” Jay Z is not only describing victims of police brutality, but also himself and his peers. He makes the personal universal — it’s a quintessenClarke Reader tial example of the power of the music. LINER ScHoolboy Q’s NOTES sophomore album “Blank Face LP,” one of hip-hop’s most eagerly awaited releases of the year, was scheduled to come out on July 8 — just days after the Sterling and Castile shootings and the day after the Dallas ambush. Because hip-hop has embraced the internet so fully, ScHoolboy was able to remix the lead single “THat Part,” featuring verses that address the situation, to coincide with the album’s release. ScHoolboy is angry — not just because of the injustice occurring, but because it will continue: “I feel bad that my daughter gotta live this life/I’ll die for my daughter, gotta fight that fight/Put our blank faces on, gotta let that dry.” While Jay Z looks inward and ScHoolboy looks for hope, R&B star Miguel tapped into the genre’s socially conscious history and issued a broken-hearted call
At the beginning of the year, I encouraged readers to listen to more rap music as a way to understand the inequality and disenfranchisement facing so many in the African-American community. The tragedies in the past weeks have powerfully reaffirmed the importance of the genre and its artists. The recent fatal police shootings of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile and the ambush in Dallas that resulted in the deaths of five police officers drove many hip-hop artists to vent their fear, anger and frustration in songs released online. Listening to them opens a window into a culture under assault. But, more importantly, for those of us who’ve been lucky enough to not endure the same trials, the songs provide some much-needed understanding and empathy. The one that garnered the most attention came from Jay Z, who released “Spiritual,” his first track as lead performer since 2013. In a note on his website, he wrote about beginning the song in 2014 with the police shooting of Michael Brown, but deciding to hold onto it because the issue would always be relevant. “I’m saddened and disappointed in THIS America — we should be further along,” he wrote. The song is a mournful self-examination and finds Jay Z the most open and honest he’s been in a long time. The tinkling keys that drive the track sound as if they were pulled from a funeral march. The hook’s lyrics are heartbreaking: “I am
A NEW GENERATION OF PROTEST SONGS Here is a list of songs that directly address recent events: “Alright” - Kendrick Lamar “Better Days” feat. Ariana Grande - Victoria Monet “Freedom” feat. Kendrick Lamar - Beyoncé “Glory” feat. John Legend - Common “Hands Up” feat. Killer Mike - Daye Jack “IDKY” - Slim Thug “Magic Bullet” - My Morning Jacket “No Justice, No Peace” feat. Mike Dean - Z-Ro “Sad News” feat. Scarface - Swizz Beatz “6 Shots” - Mistah F.A.B. for change on “How Many.” The helplessness and frustration is out front in Miguel’s voice, and since the only backing he uses is a slippery electric guitar line, the effect is amplified. He channels Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes’ 1975 classic “Wake Up Everybody,” but the lyrics are focused on the here and now: “I’m tired of human lives turned into hashtags and prayer hands/I’m tired of watching these murderers get off.” There needs to be a change in the country, Miguel sings, and as his lyrics show, it’s only through unity that change will become possible:
Innocent brothers and sisters it’s time to wake up, wake up, wake up Brothers and sisters it’s time to say something, do something, make ‘em Mmm I wonder, how many Blacks lives, how many Black lives How many heartbeats turned into flat lines How many Blacks lives, how many Black lives Does it take to wake the change? That’s the question I keep asking myself. There’s no one answer or one area that needs addressing — everything must be considered, from policing standards and gun violence to the elevation of AfricanAmerican voices and the media’s role. Those of us without the experiences of many in the African-American community need to pay attention to what they’re saying, and the music coming out of these tragedies is a crucial pathway to increased awareness. Listen, appreciate what these voices add to the conversation, and become part of the solution. We owe that much to each other.

They were built from about 1900 on in Belgium and used as traveling dance halls and fairs. The numerous Spiegels (mirrors) inside the tent allowed people to establish eye contact discreetly and

More than two dozen Colorado wineries set up shop at the 13th annual Castle Rock WineFest hosted by the Castle Rock Chamber. The July 16 event was held at The Grange at The Meadows, and the chamber said ticket sales were up from last year, although they did not have official numbers available. New this year was a beer garden, a VIP area and extended festival hours. The first 2,000 WineFest attendees received a free wine bottle tote and event wine glass.

Denver Art Museum has all the moves Hamilton Building exhibit explores theme of dance
IF YOU GO The entrance to the Denver Art Museum is from 13th Avenue, between Broadway and Bannock. Related programming: Drop in Drawing: Drawing in Motion — bring a sketch book or use the museum’s paper; Drop in Writing: Rhythm in Word — explore poetic form, in your notebook or DAM’s. On July 29, Untitled: In-Sync will encourage creative collaborations, including a special 7 p.m. plaza performance by Cleo Parker Robinson Dance Company. Children under 18 are admitted free. “Untitled” offers two-forone admission to college students with ID. Denverartmuseum.org.
By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com From the moment one walks onto the Martin Plaza outside the Denver Art Museum’s Hamilton Building, the feet pick up a rhythm. “In Motion: An Outdoor Installation” in bright color invites the visitor to dance in and around it before entering the museum door. It will provide a backdrop for visitors to dance, as well as for appearances by many professional troupes through the summer, when the campus-wide theme is “Dance!” (A young child carrying a stick with flowing ribbons and a little white terrier were dancing with the terrace fountains on a recent morning.) Inside, one first looks up at muralsized paintings of American Indian dancers on the high white walls. On the ground floor, walk back to the Gallagher Gallery to enjoy “Why We Dance: American Indian Art in Dance and Motion” which includes a wide range of colorful Indian dance regalia: headdresses, jingle dresses, men’s and women’s Fancy Dance costumes, masks, jewelry and musical instruments, including drums. Paintings depict native dances that were meant to cure disease, protect or defend from animals and more. This multi-sensory exhibit includes 86 works, 78 drawn from the Denver Art Museum’s extensive American Indian Art collection. A large painting of ballroom dancers by Arthur Bowes Davies called “Dances,” 1914/15, at the exhibit’s entrance on the second floor, introduces “Rhythm & Roots: Dance in American Art,” organized by the Detroit Institute of Art. It includes about 90 paintings, drawings, photographs, sculptures and costumes (including the tutu Anna Pavlova wore in her famous Dying Swan performanc-
“Art in Motion” is an installation on the Martin Plaza in front of the Hamilton Building at the Denver Art Museum, where visitors are invited to dance and dance troupes will perform at times. It is inspired by a stop-motion photographic series of dance images. Dance is the campus theme at the DAM this summer. Courtesy photos es in the ballet “Swan Lake”). Art covers 1830 to 1960, with paintings of famous dancers including Americans Isadora Duncan, Katherine Dunham, Fred Astaire and Josephine Baker, Spanish dancer Carmencita Dauset Moreno and Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova. Curator Angelica Daneo commented that “no one pictured suffered from low self-esteem!” Stylized paintings of jitterbugs add another facet to this lively exhibit. Daneo spoke about John Singer Sargent’s process in painting an elegant portrait of the famous La Carmencita. He had trouble getting her to pay attention, to maintain her pose — and enter-

Kaleidoscope show comes to ACC Exhibition will be held at college until Aug. 11 closing reception
IF YOU GO Kaleidoscope is at the Colorado Gallery of the Arts at Arapahoe Community College, 5900 S. Santa Fe Drive, Littleton, through Aug. 11. A closing public reception will be from 5 to 7 p.m on Aug. 11. Gallery hours: noon to 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, until 7 p.m. on Tuesdays. Closed on Saturdays, Sundays.
By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com In late April a call-for-artists went out for the 12th Annual Kaleidoscope Juried Art Exhibition, scheduled for July at the Colorado Gallery of the Arts at Arapahoe Community College. The exhibit was initiated as a cooperative effort between a now-discontinued Littleton arts council and ACC to give additional exposure to area artists as well as opportunity for the community to view their work. Trish Sangelo — the gallery coordinator — and the ACC Art Department have continued to run the exhibit. It includes paintings, drawings, mixed media, photographs and small 3-D works. It opened this year on July 11 and will run until Aug. 11, with a reception on closing night rather than opening night. On Aug. 11, the reception will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. at the gallery, with artists picking up their work afterward. Juror Angela Faris Belt, photographer, artist, writer and educator and author of the popular book “Elements of Photography” (pubBelt lished in the U.K.), is chair of the Studio Art, Art History and Photography Department at ACC.
She said in her juror’s statement: “Though there were many high quality entries, not all could be accepted.” She wanted to share her criteria for inclusion. “First, an artwork’s Concept is important. I appreciate work that urges viewers to see or understand something in a new way, that pushes the content beyond cliché. Second, I look for effective use of Visual Language to communicate the concept. No matter the medium, I look for an artist to use composition and the medium’s technical and physical attributes to construct artwork in a visually appealing or interesting way. And finally, Presentation Quality can never be ignored. Things such as 2-D work that’s flat with nicely cut window mats, paintings and drawings with nicely-considered edges, and 3-D work that is thoughtfully presented all contribute to the quality of the artwork itself.” She named the following award winners: • First place went to Linda Schmale for her well-crafted raku ceramic box, called “Birds of the Air.” It is glazed with crackly offwhite with silhouetted black birds on all sides and the message, “Look at the Birds” on the edge of the lid.
• Second place went to Charis S.G. Casey’s dense, dark portrait, “There’s a War Inside My Head,” created with airbrush ink, graphite, pastel powder, pencil and paint. Right out of the headlines … • Third place went to Bobbi Shupe’s “Memories,” a piece on a lighter note — a mixed media painting of a blond, pretty child with a balloon behind her. The painting is executed on a collage of old sheet music. • Honorable mentions were given to Rosanne Juergens’ photograph, “Bottles on Display,” and Barbara Veatch’s strong mixed media painting, “Falling Out of Summer.” The heavy black frame and sheen of glass enhance the painting. Honorable mentions also went to: “Oh Blackbird … Sing One Last Song For Me,” a delicate drawing of a nude by Charis S.G. Casey, with graphite, pastel powder and pencil; to “A Beauty” by Lynette Planck-Kupferer, for a drawing of a large, elaborate flower done with colored pencil, acrylic and mixed pen; to “Somniferum,” a watercolor of poppies by Gail Firmin; to Celeste Hodges’ mixed media collage “Flight from DIA”; and to “On the Drum Line,” a bronze of a soldier by Steve McCall.

Man makes new friends out of strangers Train, church, dental office help Brandon McGee find family By Tom Skelley tskelley@colorado communitymedia.com Brandon McGee has a smile that conveys the love exuding from his heart. But it wasn’t until he met Sally Allen and Dr. Yvette Killingsworth that his smile looked its best. While riding his bike as a child, McGee, now 29, was struck by a car and suffered a brain injury that left him in a coma for a week. Since then, things like exact dates and addresses are difficult to remember, but he taught himself to play piano, and he’s savvy enough to know that he would have lost a lot of benefits when the hotel where he worked in Texas changed hands. He transferred to the Ritz Carlton in Denver and moved into a house in the east Centennial/Aurora area in June 2015, taking the light rail downtown to work. On one such trip, he met Nick Decherd from the Southside Bible Church in Centennial. Decherd convinced McGee to visit the church, where he met Sally Allen. “He’s just a big teddy bear of a kid,” Allen says. “You just love him for his heart.” Allen, of Castle Rock, says her church members embraced McGee, and he endeared himself to her family, making fast friends with her son Chris. Despite always being open and honest with them, they soon realized he wasn’t telling them everything. Though McGee didn’t complain,
Brandon McGee, left, and Dr. Yvette Killingsworth, DDS, get cozy at the Elements Family Dentistry office in Parker on July 14. McGee says Killingsworth’s family has become his “Colorado family” since he moved here from Texas. Photo by Tom Skelley Allen says he often mentioned pain in one of his teeth to those around him at church and at her home. “Every time you were with him he mentioned how it hurt, when he was eating, just all the time,” Allen said. “He has

this incredible zeal for life, so if you didn’t know him you probably wouldn’t even have noticed.” “A lot of people have scars, I’m a tough cookie,” McGee says, flexing his arms as he sits next to Killingsworth on the sofa in the lobby of Elements Family Dentistry in Parker. But tough as he was, he admitted the tooth bled at times and the pain was keeping him from sleeping well. McGee’s last trip to a dentist had been a long time ago in Texas. He isn’t sure how long, but McGee distinctly remembers being in tremendous pain and screaming to the point that the dentist told him he was scaring other patients. Allen and her husband, Skip, convinced McGee to visit Killingsworth, their
family dentist, and promised him they would foot the bill. “Skip and Chris just came in with Brandon and said ‘please do whatever you think needs to be done, and we’ll take up a collection plate at church to pay,’” Killingsworth says. “To which I said ‘no,’” she adds with a laugh. McGee made a strong first impression on Killingsworth, and a lasting one. “For how much pain he had to have been in, he struck me as the happiest person I have ever met,” she says, smiling at McGee as they recount the story, laughing and hugging at every pause in the conversation. Killingsworth removed McGee’s abscessed tooth and insisted to the Allens that they bring him back for a full examination. He has since made many return trips to the office, not all of them for dental care. McGee is part of the office family now, interrupting himself as he talks with the staff to embrace them, taking selfies with them behind their desks, and smiling the entire time. Killingsworth says McGee’s become a part of her family as well, coming to the house to work on landscaping projects with her husband, entertaining her three children with impressions of Mickey Mouse and Goofy, and going to Rockies games together. “Some people look at a doctor as just a doctor,” he says, turning to smile at Killingsworth, “but you’re just an awesome person and you bring the joy every time I’m here… this makes me feel like I’m at home. I’m always happy when I leave… I see more than a dentist, I see a new friend.” For her part, Killingsworth couldn’t agree more. “I’d like to keep him close in my life,” Killingsworth says. “Certain people come into your life for a reason, and so I feel honestly like it’s a gift that Brandon’s into my life.”

‘Doers’ aim to keep on doing Elite group The 40 and 8 keeps the faith for veterans By Tom Skelley tskelley@colorado communitymedia.com After World War I, 16 members of the American Legion’s leadership decided to start an special branch of the organization to recognize their added level of service on the home front and provide a unique opportunity for camaraderie. The group culled members from the committees and governing bodies that comprised the Legion’s leadership, and in 1920, “La Societe des Quarente Hommes et Huit Chevaux” — the Society of Forty Men and Eight Horses — was born. The name has since been shortened, but not the list of the group’s accomplishments and responsibilities. “We’re the doers,” said Thomas Yagley, Chef de Gare of The 40 and 8. “When someone’s considered, they understand you continue in your current activity, then get ready for more work. There’s always another committee.” Members — some of whom are from the south metro area — are selected by invitation only. Yagley’s title, loosely translated as “chief,” represents one of the unique traits of The 40 and 8, their use of French titles and descriptions. For nearly a century The 40 and 8 has distinguished itself,
Tom Yagley, left, and Glen Stenson, right, look at photos from The 40 and 8’s early years at Voiture 97 in Denver on June 29. Yagley serves as Chef de Gare (Chief) and Stenson is the Commissar Entendent (Treasurer) of the local chapter. Photo by Tom Skelley providing service to the community at large and support to survivors of the United States’ armed conflicts around the globe. But declining membership may be the biggest battle facing the 40 and 8 today. The group meets locally at Voiture 97 on Yale Avenue at I-25. “Voiture” translates to “wagon” or in this case, a railroad car. In its origin, the group was made up of veterans from World War I, many of whom were transported to the front lines in railroad cars bearing the mark 40/8, denoting that the car could carry either 40 soldiers or eight horses. It was a common, uncomfortable memory the men could all
relate to, providing a foundation for fraternity. “The magic word is ‘relationships,’” Yagley said. “After that, respect, honesty, integrity all fall into place.” Another defining characteristic of the group is that membership is granted by invitation only, unlike groups like the American Legion with a waiting list of applicants. “We watch what they do, if they’re a leader in the community,” said Glen Stenson, Voiture 97’s Commissar Entendent (treasurer). “One of our problems is that we’re too interested in people who can help us cook,” he adds with a chuckle.
Projects and campaigns the group has championed over the years include a vaccination project to combat childhood diphtheria in 1932, a nurses’ training program currently in its 60th year and sending $881,000 in relief supplies to New York City after the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. The 40 and 8 continues to work as advocates for veterans, designing programs to provide emotional, financial and educational support for veterans and their families, such as hospital visits, scholarships and monetary assistance. Members of the 40 and 8 provide scholarships for family members of prisoners of war and visit elementary schools to teach children about history from the perspective of those who lived it. “I’m proud of our service,” Stenson said. “I’m proud of our color guard, I’m proud of our group here… and I’m proud of the Lawman of the Year and Hero of the Year,” he said, referring to two of The 40 and 8’s annual community awards. Service is a hallmark of the group, but another vital function is the camaraderie the group’s founders envisioned for members. “It’s our close relationship with one another,” said Stenson, 90. “We’re a pretty tight group. We all recognize what the other guy does.” As the members of The 40 and 8 grow older and natural causes force a decline in membership, those close relation-
ships are at risk of being lost. The group’s constitution has been amended several times, most recently in 2008, to include any veteran or active duty service member, regardless of membership in the American Legion. The change, members hoped, would ultimately increase membership in The 40 and 8 and infuse the group with some new blood. “All groups are reaching a point of criticality, the Elks, the Masons, everybody,” said Yagley, 65. “I’m one of the young guns.” Membership nationally stands at 25,455 members, a substantial number, but almost 1,300 fewer than it was just last year. After World War II, the Denver Voiture alone boasted more than 400 members. Total membership statewide stands at just 124 today. “One of our big problems is publicity,” Yagley said. “If the American Legion and the Sons of the American Legion can do well, then it’ll help The 40 and 8,” he added with a hint of optimism. “There are 30-year-olds joining the American Legion again. It’s a time of transition.” “There’s pictures where downtown is packed full of American Legion and 40 and 8 members,” Stenson said, pointing to framed black-and-white pictures on the walls of the largely empty room. He turns his gaze and gestures around the hall. “You can see what the years of attrition have done,” he said.

New name, new turf for local stadiums Parker facility now called EchoPark Automotive Stadium
SPRINTURF workers remove and bag the old artificial turf at Shea Stadium. New playing surfaces are being installed at ThunderRidge High School and Shea Stadium and both projects are expected to be completed by the end of the month, SPRINTURF said. Some of the black rubber underlay pad stuck to the turf in both locations so new rubber had to be installed before the turf installation could start. Photo by Jim Benton
By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com There will be a different name this fall adorning the high school sports stadium in Parker. Meanwhile, the installation of new playing surfaces at ThunderRidge High School and Shea Stadium is scheduled to be complete by Aug. 11. EchoPark has signed a sponsorship agreement for the stadium at 11901 Newlin Gulch Blvd. The stadium opened in 2009 and Burt. com Stadium was the original name. Sports Authority agreed to a three-year sponsorship agreement in 2010, and EchoPark — an automotive dealership with locations in Centennial, Highlands Ranch, Littleton and Thornton — now has the naming rights.

Decades-old movie still in play

half of the century, until the emergence of the golf cart. “Since the mid-1950s the spread of the motorized golf cart has been popular with golfers and a financial boon for the courses,” the Professional Caddies Association states on its website. “Carts have quickly become the caddie’s worst enemy. Caddies, and walking, aren’t in the equation. By the mid-1970s the conversion was virtually complete. Even the cost of a cart rental is less expensive than hiring a caddie.” In Colorado, though, Caddies were down but not out. The Colorado Golf Association purchased and re-designed the former Vista Mira Golf Course and in 2009 opened CommonGround, located near East Alameda Avenue and Havana Street. The Solich Caddie and Leadership Academy was started there in 2012. Today, there are 11 Denver-metro area caddie programs, including the Solich Academy, which is the only one at a public course. Ed Mate, Colorado Golf Association executive director and a former caddie at Denver Country Club, calls the program a “game changer.” CommonGround has 45 eighth- and ninth-grade students as caddies this summer and has tutored more than 100 caddies since the Solich Academy started. Five have been awarded prestigious Evans scholarships to the University of Colorado. After two summers, CommonGround caddies are placed in existing Denver-area caddie programs. And there are hundreds of caddies in those programs. Columbine Country Club, which saw its caddie program go by the wayside 15 years ago, has 60 caddies working this summer. Cherry Hills Country Club has one of the top caddie programs in Colorado with 155 caddies working this summer. There are 50 caddies at Lakewood Country Club, and there has been a noted increase in loops — rounds caddied — so far this summer.
help locate balls, rake bunkers, tend the flagstick and clean clubs and balls. More advanced caddies also help players make the proper club selection and read the greens on putts. In pro golf, “the caddie just has a gigantic role now,” said Bill Loeffler, owner of The Links at Highlands Ranch course and a former PGA Tour player. “He’s a coach, mental coach and father figure sometimes,” Loeffler said. “He’s a guy to lean on in bad times and enjoy good times, too. There are a lot of friendships.” Local caddies have a more reserved responsibility. “These are 15- and 16-year-old kids, and the best ones are the most attentive and don’t get distracted,” said Pilo Troup, Lakewood Country Club assistant caddiemaster.
What they do Caddies must have a certain measure of physical fitness. They carry bags that average about 25 pounds — though many bags have double straps, which make them more like backpacks. Years ago, bags were leather, as opposed to today’s lighter-weight materials, and single-strapped, making them more difficult to tote. It’s been estimated that caddies probably walk about seven miles during a day’s work, depending on the loops. During their treks, caddies do more than carry the bag. How much they do depends on their skill and experience level. All will
The payoff Through caddying, young loopers learn about the game, earn money and some even secure college scholarships. The Evans Scholarship, awarded by the Western Golf Association, provides full tuition and housing to students attending one of 14 universities across the country, including CU. Recipients must perform well as caddies, be strong academically and show good character, leadership and demonstrate financial need. The scholarship is named for Chick Evans, a top amateur golfer who won the U.S. Open and U.S. Amateur in 1916.

Keane McClintock, a Cherry Creek High School graduate, Evans scholar and sophomore at CU, still caddies at Cherry Hills. “When I started caddying five years ago, the main goal was to win a scholarship,” he said. “It’s a great summer job just based on the amount of money you make — and you’re outside and not in an office building.” While caddies on the PGA Tour can earn hundreds of thousands to more than a million dollars a year, local loopers are paid on a more modest scale. They usually get a base salary plus gratuities from golfers. There are basic rates depending on the skill and experience of a caddie and the country club. For example, the rate at Cherry Hills is $25 for a rookie, $30 for a “B” caddie, $35 for an “A” caddie and $40 for an honor-class caddie. CommonGround, on the other hand, uses an educational grant to pay caddies, so golfers don’t have to pay, except for tips. For many, the money is nice, but it’s really a labor of love. Molly Lucas, a Cherry Creek graduate who will enroll as a freshman at North Carolina State next month, has completed 45 loops this summer after racking up 100 last year. “Golf is a passion of mine,” Lucas said. “I feel there is not a better place to be than a place you love, being outdoors, great work, you meet amazing people — and I couldn’t ask for a better job.”
“Caddyshack” has acquired a large cult following and been acclaimed by many as one of the funniest sports movies ever. The movie, released in 1980 and often shown today on cable TV, features comedy legends Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield, Ted Knight and Bill Murray. Among other things, the film focuses on a young caddie looking to earn money for college, golf course gambling and a destructive gopher. Many golfers — and even nonplayers — can quote dozens of lines from the movie. So what do local caddies and officials think of the movie? Here’s a look at some responses: “It’s all accurate. There is not much stretch there.” — Steve Oberst, Cherry Hills caddie “Our office watches it all the time. We love that movie.” — Emily Olson, Colorado Golf Association manager of caddie development “It was great. I quote it all the time and there are members that quote it all the time out here.” — Molly Lucas, Cherry Hills caddie “It’s my favorite movie. It sort of resembles what goes on here between caddies being scratched, people showing up and people not showing up. Then, hearing the complaints and comments about each member when they (caddies) come in.” — Kevin Shafer, one of Cherry Hills’ caddiemasters “It’s a good interpretation of what goes on. It shows how fun golf can be.” — Pilo Troup, assistant caddiemaster at Lakewood Country Club “I’ve never seen ‘Caddyshack.’” — Jake Pendergast, caddie at Colorado Golf Club

Former Pirates battle inside the cage Three Englewood High School graduates compete in martial arts event By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com When Nick Navarro, Justin Moss and Heath Soderstrom entered the cage, members of the crowd shouted: “Go Pirates!” The three were former Englewood High School athletes who were combatants at the July 16 Sparta Combat League Mixed Martial Arts 16-bout fight card at Douglas County Events Center in Castle Rock. Navarro and Moss faced off in a Muay Thai battle and Soderstrom fought for the professional heavyweight title. Navarro and Moss, high school friends, agreed it was tough to fight each other. But both also agreed the friendship was at least partially left at the cage entrance as both men sought to win what was their first Muay Thai professional fight. Muay Thai is a combat sport of Thailand. The style involves stand-up fighting, striking with fists, legs, arms and elbows. Navarro and Moss went the distance as they fought a fast-paced three rounds of five minutes each. Both fighters landed telling punches and kicks. None of the blows was enough to end the bout, although Navarro scored two knockdowns. Scoring was close, but the three judges unanimously named Navarro the winner. Navarro, who now lives in Northglenn, played football for the Pirates and was on the 2002 team that advanced to the playoffs. He played football on a scholarship at Western State University in Gunnison. “I played football for Western State for a couple years and then I decided to join the Army,” Navarro said. “I completed Ranger training, so I served in both Afghanistan and Iraq.” He left the Army in 2008 and started martial arts training when his friend Nate Johnson invited him to train at his gym. “I thought the fight went pretty well because Justin Moss is a very tough op-
ABOVE: Jason Colburn lands a hard right hand on Heath Soderstrom’s cheek as the two men met July 16 for the Sparta Combat League Professional Mixed Martial Arts Heavyweight Championship. Colburn won the title when the bout was stopped at the end of the first round because Soderstrom had a deep cut over his left eye. LEFT: Nick Navarro leads with a left jab during his July 16 professional Muay Thai bout against high school friend Justin Moss. A unanimous decision awarded Navarro the win in the bout that was part of the Sparta Combat League fight card at the Douglas County Events Center. Photos by Tom Munds ponent,” Navarro said after the fight. “There are things I can improve on. I beat up his legs pretty good with my kicks, but he is a tough kid and it is hard to put a guy
like that away for the count. I am just very happy I came out of the cage with a win.” Moss, a Littleton resident, played soccer and graduated from Englewood High
School in 2004. He received a scholarship and played soccer for New Mexico State University, where he earned a criminal justice degree. He works in youth corrections for the state of Colorado. “Fighting against a friend was tougher than I thought it would be,” Moss said after the fight. “Nick and I both have a lot of respect for each other. The fight was fun. I enjoyed myself even though I fought my friend Nick and although the decision didn’t go my way. I have a lot more tools than I used tonight and I will continue to train hard and improve my skills.” Soderstrom, of Parker, faced Jason Colburn in the semi-main bout for the vacant SLC professional heavyweight title. The near-capacity crowd was on its feet for most of the five minutes of the first round as the two men battled. Both fighters landed solid punches and their faces showed the impact of the blows. But the bout lasted only one round. Colburn landed a blow that created a large cut over Soderstrom’s left eye. Between rounds, the attending doctor ruled the injury was too severe to allow the fight to continue and stopped it due to medical reasons. “I didn’t want him to stop the fight,” Soderstrom said after the bout. “I know I was cut but I still wanted to fight. I hate it that I put in all the work for a shot at the title only to have them stop the fight after the first round because of this cut. We need somebody to invent something that will cure cuts like this immediately so this kind of thing won’t happen.” It took 15 stitches to close the cut. SCL rules won’t allow him to compete for at least the next 30 days. “I will continue training and, once I am cleared, I will train harder because I want to get back into competition and I want to earn another shot at that professional heavyweight title,” Soderstrom said. Soderstrom played football and wrestled at Englewood High School. He graduated from EHS in 2001 and accepted a sports scholarship to Adams State College where he was an All-American in wrestling and finished fourth in the collegiate wrestling nationals in his senior year.
