jsmith@colorado communitymedia.com Lt. Col. Ken Yaphe recently retired from the Air Force, and now he’s giving back to those who marched before him — and getting an earful in return. “It’s an education, and I feel like I’m contributing,” he said. Yaphe is volunteering with Mile High Red Cross on the Library of Congress Veterans History Project of the American Folklife Center, on a mission to “collect, preserve

and make accessible the personal accounts of American war veterans so that future generations may hear directly from veterans and better understand the realities of war,” according to the Red Cross website. According to the Department of Veterans Affairs, approximately 492 World War II veterans pass away every day in the United States, more than one death every three minutes. “The sad fact is that we are at the twilight of the World War II generation, and

Picking up the pieces

Yaphe says that without fail, the veterans he’s interviewed have been modest about their service, whether overseas in battle or on American soil, keeping the gears of war oiled. “It’s tempting for the public to believe that the only experience in war is in the infantry,” he said. “But this is giving exposure to the machine that supported the tip of the spear.” Colorado Community Media spent some time with four of the Holly Creek veterans. We bring you two of their stories this week and two more next week.

Robert Stong retrieved crashed aircraft around Norfolk, Va., for most of his World War II tour of duty. Photo by Jennifer Smith Seaman First Class Robert Stong spent most of his World War II service at Naval Station Norfolk in Virgina, picking up pieces of planes that practicing pilots crashed. “One time, I recall, the pilot was lying on the wing getting a suntan when we got there,” said the native of Layfayette, Ind. — “a little drinking town with a football problem,” as he calls it. He never saw an injured pilot, as they were taken away before he and the team he led got to the crash site. Once there, they’d load the plane onto a trailer — whatever was left after the nearby farmers got enough aluminum to fix their chicken

within a few short years, their stories will be lost forever,” said Chuck Montera, a publicist for Holly Creek Retirement Community in Centennial. That’s where Yaphe spent Jan. 27, visiting with some of the 50-plus World War IIera veterans who live there and recording their stories. The videos will live in perpetuity at the Library of Congress, and will be given to the vets to share with family and friends.

coops — and head on down the highway back to the base. One guy would have to stand on the plane’s tail to raise power and phone lines up high enough to pass underneath. It didn’t always work, said Stong, and they’d joke that they were probably yanking people’s phones right out of their walls. “It was a lot of fun,” he said. Today, Stong appreciates the discipline he gained from serving in the military. “It does a lot of good for a lot of kids,” he said. — Jennifer Smith

World War II veteran Keith Burnham, 88, is interviewed as his wife, Rheta, 80, listens. On the table in front of Burnham are stacks of newspaper articles and documents that recount the time he spent in the service. Photo by Christy Steadman Keith Burnham, 88, joined the service two days before his 18th birthday in December 1944. He was deployed in June 1945 and ranked as a fireman first class in the Navy, assigned to the USS Burleson. Aboard the ship, Burnham was assigned to the boiler room with the job of regulating the amount of oil to the amount of air to make a smoke screen, he said. “Everything was eight hours on, and eight hours off,” Burnham said. And if the eight hours off fell during the daytime, there were other chores, such as cleaning, to be done. “I did my fair share of peeling potatoes.” Most of the ship’s assignments came

two at a time, he said, and included two trips to retrieve discharged troops returning home. Eventually, the USS Burleson was assigned to take animals to nuclear testing at Bikini Atoll. There were all sorts of animals, Burnham said, and the ship became known as Noah’s Ark. Burnham described his experience in the service as fortunate. “The war was about over before I got into any real battles,” he said. He added that he’s grateful he “got to join the Navy rather than being drafted in the Army.” — Christy Steadman

School district safety panel begins to drill down LPS group plans half-day workshop at end of month By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@colorado communitymedia.com Members of the Littleton Public Schools Safety and Mental Health Advisory Committee began to lay out their priorities on Jan. 28. After hearing during their last meeting from Guy Grace, LPS director of security and emergency planning, the committee’s focus

was on security issues. “It takes a community to keep the schools safe,” Grace told the 30 or so members of the committee, formed to tackle questions raised in the aftermath of the 2013 Arapahoe High School shooting. The members — culled from educators, elected officials, mentalhealth professionals, students and the community at large — will spend the next six months looking for gaps in systems already in place. Emerging themes include whether student resource officers are being used to their fullest capacity, how to stay current on

best practices, proactive vs. reactive approaches, and whether and how to engage students. Robert Reichardt, who lost a bid for a seat on the school board last November, expressed frustration with the process, and wants to hear from more students than just the three on the committee. “I feel like I’m supposed to be making recommendations on the safety of our students, and I don’t know what the problems are,” he said. But some mothers in the group School continues on Page 12

Community approves county direction, survey shows It shows a 20 percent climb in residents’ perception of Arapahoe County government By Ben Wiebesiek

bwiebesiek @coloradocommunitymedia.com The results of the Arapahoe County 2014 Citizens Survey are in, and residents are happier with the performance of the county government than they were six years ago. When asked to rate the overall direction that Arapahoe County is taking in 2014, 71 percent of residents reported in the mail-in survey that the direction was “excellent” or “good,” according to National Research Center Inc., the Boulderbased firm that conducted the survey. NRC asked this question in a 2008 survey mailed to Arapahoe county residents, and 51 percent gave a rating of “excellent” or “good.” Nancy Sharpe, chair of the board of commissioners, described the results as “tremendous,” and she credited Align Arapahoe, a framework designed to measure and manage county performance, for helping to put county efforts in-line with the priorities of residents. “We were very pleased about the 20 percent increase in the approval in the overall direction that the county is taking,” Sharpe said. “We’ve been working in the last number of years on improving our communication, and second of all, on our performance measures, on our performance program and reporting that out to the community. So it’s been a major focus for us the last five or six years, and the last two years I would say we’ve really honed in on it across the county.” The county mailed surveys to 3,000 residents, with a response rate of 26 percent. NRC described the margin of error as plus or minus 4 percentage points. The response rate of the 2008 survey was 25 percent. NRC conducts surveys across the

Project manager with National Research Center Inc. next 6 months?” 35 percent of respondents gave a “very” or “somewhat” positive prediction in 2014, more than double the 12 percent rating in 2008. Sharpe was encouraged that between the two surveys, the ratings for individual county services remained level or improved. “Since the last survey, we’ve been through some difficult economic times across our county, across the nation, and to know that our services continue to be high quality and they haven’t diminished in that time was a good thing to hear,” she said. Respondents ranked service quality for different county programs. Child protection services received the lowest rating — 43 percent rated the services as “excellent” or “good” — and county parks, trails and open space received the top marks — 85 percent rated the services as “excellent” or “good.” “One of the things we continue to hear positive things about is our open space program,” Sharpe said. “That continues to be something that citizens really value and support. We went out there for a re-authorization a couple of years ago to the voters; they overwhelmingly supported that program because they can see the benefits in working with the cities across the county as well as in the

incorporated areas.” NRC compared results from incorporated and unincorporated areas of the county, finding different priorities for residents outside city limits. Residents living in unincorporated areas of the county gave more positive ratings to emergency preparedness and licenses and permits compared to those living in incorporated areas of the county, according to the survey summary. Those who owned their home tended to give higher ratings to child-support services, child-protection services, senior services and property and tax information compared to those who rented. The county plans to conduct another survey in 2016. The board of commissioners and county staff are planning to explore the survey results in greater detail during a February retreat, and Sharpe said this data would help the county to match focus, effort and resources with community priorities. “This is just a great tool for the county,” Sharpe said. “It shows us how we have been doing and how we measured up.” Results for this and prior surveys can be viewed under the “About” tab at the Arapahoe County website, www.arapahoegov.com.

School district faces mandate crunch LPS wants state, feds to put money into special education By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@colorado communitymedia.com There’s about a $13 million gap in the Littleton Public Schools special-education system, say its administrators. “Shame on the state, and shame on the federal government for not providing this funding,” LPS board member Mary Nichols said during the Jan. 29 regular meeting. Melissa Cooper, director of special education and student support services, said the program costs $19 million a year to run. And despite issuing a never-ending stream of new mandates, the state and federal governments kick in

only about 29 percent of that, or 13 percent and 16 percent, respectively. Compounding the problem is the national sequester — the mandatory, massive and across-theboard cuts at the federal level that hit in 2013. Cooper said it cost her program 5 percent of the total budget, and now any reserves she had are gone. It all adds up to the fact that 70 percent of special-education funding comes out of the district’s general fund, or about $13 million. The district this year is serving 1,403 kids with a wide variety of special needs, ranging from slight learning disabilities to severe physical limitations, mild autism to debilitating psychological issues. About 6 percent of those kids are in preschool, 38 percent in elementary school, 23 percent in middle school, 30 percent in high school and 3 percent in the pro-

gram for 18- to 21-year-olds. Thirty-nine of them have needs so severe that they can’t be met within the district, but it’s still responsible for making sure they’re adequately served in the least restrictive environment possible. Whether the kids are in a hospital, detention center or homebound, the district must provide their education, transportation and assistive technologies, among other things. “It becomes quite complex, but our goal is always to get these children back into our schools if at all possible,” said Cooper. Much of Cooper’s budget and staff time goes to making sure the program is in compliance with all of the state and federal mandates. A mandate that kicked in this year, HB 11-277, placed oversight duties that used to be conducted by the Colorado Department of Education on the shoulders of the

The LPS Board of Education on Jan. 29 heard about the complexities of offering special education. File photo district. That means that every year, the district is conducting its own fiscal and compliance audits, surveying parents and graduates, coming up with its own improvement plan and more. “The reality is that this model is broken,” said Jack Reutzel, board president. “There has to be some titanic train wreck coming to fix this.”

Cooper said that wreck will likely occur in the form of lawsuits, as districts begin to fail under the pressure. “Parents and kids have rights,” she said. “If the district can’t meet them, there are opportunities for lawsuits. … We do our best to comply, but we cannot do this at the risk of instruction.”

Reutzel takes helm of LPS board Stanish says now is time for new leadership By Jennifer Smith

jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Lucie Stanish and Jack Reutzel swapped seats during the Jan. 30 meeting of the Littleton Public Schools Board of Education, as Stanish ceded her presidency. “Now I look forward to making motions, asking more questions and worrying less about facilitating,” she told her fellow board members. Stanish explained that she only intended to be president for a year, to give the board members elected in 2013 a chance to settle

in before taking over leadership. She and Mary Nichols, both elected in 2007 and reelected in 2011, are termlimited and unable to run in this year’s November election. Adding to the tide of change is the retirement of Superintendent Scott Murphy, effective June 15. Stanish said it will be important to have experienced leaderStanish ship on the board as a new superintendent learns the ropes. Nichols nominated Reutzel to assume the role of president, and he was unanimously supported.

“Our ability to work as a team has been awesome,” said Nichols. “I think he will facilitate, lead and manage well as a president.” Reutzel is a 20-year-plus resident of Bow Mar and is that town’s city attorney. His son graduated from Littleton High School and his daughter attends Heritage. He says his kids have been happy, engaged and fulfilled during their time in LPS. “The board has been really constructive the last several years, and they have a great working relationship,” he said while campaigning in 2013. “Clearly, they’re doing something right. … I don’t think there’s an overhaul necessary, but you always want to tweak. Just because we’re great now doesn’t mean we need to sit on our hands for the

next 10 years.” He feels the board’s job is to help allocate available resources in such a way as to best let the teachers teach and the students learn. “I think we’re all leaders,” he said upon taking his new chair. “The board of education works as a unit. We’re collegial, we’re compassionate and we’ll continue to work for the good of the students.” Stanish, who owns Downtown Dinners in the Broadridge Shopping Center, remains on the board as its assistant secretary. The other members thanked her for her leadership during what’s been a difficult time for the district. She was voted in as board president on the night before the Arapahoe High School tragedy.

Member Spotlight – United Launch Alliance

Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Fla., (Jan. 20, 2015) – A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V rocket carrying the third Mobile User Objective System satellite for the United States Navy launched from Space Launch Complex-41 at 8:04 p.m. EST today. The MUOS-3 spacecraft will ensure continued mission capability of the existing Ultra High Frequency Satellite Communications system that will provide improved and assured mobile communications to the warfighter. “The ULA team is honored to deliver this critical mission into orbit for the

U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force with the support of our many mission partners,” said Jim Sponnick, ULA vice president, Atlas and Delta Programs. “The MUOS3 spacecraft is the heaviest payload to launch atop an Atlas V launch vehicle. The Atlas V generated more than two and half million pounds of thrust at liftoff to meet the demands of lifting this nearly 7.5-ton satellite. Today’s launch was the 200th Atlas-Centaur launch – a very sincere congratulations to the many women and men responsible for the incredible success of the Centaur upper stage over the last 5 decades!” This mission was launched aboard an Atlas V Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) 551 configuration vehicle, which includes a 5-meter diameter payload fairing along with five Aerojet Rocketdyne solid rocket motors attached to the Atlas booster. The Atlas booster for this mission was powered by the RD AMROSS RD-180 engine and the Centaur upper stage was powered by the Aerojet Rocketdyne RL10C-1 engine. This is ULA’s 1st launch in 2015, the 52nd Atlas V mission and the fifth Atlas V 551 launch. MUOS is a next-generation narrowband tactical satellite communications system designed to significantly improve

Choose what to fly, and then fly it high We have a very exciting event that will create a very unique opportunity here in Colorado this year. The World Cup Championships will be held in Vail and Beaver Creek and we will be hosting guests from all over the country and all over the world. Now even though you may not be into skiing or ski racing, and you may not even live in the Vail Valley, it is still a pretty amazing event that will allow the racers to showcase their skills in an unbelievable venue. And it will also provide each one of us with an opportunity to showcase our special gifts and skills. As the competitors and guests arrive from all over the world, we will see jackets, shirts, hats, pins, banners and flags celebrating their home countries. We will see and hear our international guests who have come to watch the event as they speak in their languages and in some cases do their best to interact with us in English. Many of them will also be very fluent in English. This will be a very exciting time for Colorado. And as I thought about this, I thought about the fact that guests will not just be going to Vail and Beaver Creek — many will undoubtedly come early and stay longer to experience Denver and other communities. And as they do, we have that unique op-

portunity to showcase who we are and why Colorado is such an amazing place to live. So which flag will you be flying? Maybe there is a country that you come from or your ancestors came from and where you still feel a sense of patriotism. Maybe there is an athlete you like to watch and root for. But as I think about what other flags we could be flying as we host so many guests, I think about the flags of friendship, hospitality, customer service, compassion, kindness and so many other positive messages that we could make sure that our guests see in us and experience through us. Then I thought about it a little further and wondered what flag it is that people see when they see me all year long. What flag do they see you flying all year long? You see, our flag is like our brand, people associate it with

how they see us and how they see us in action. How they see us as we treat others and interact with the community. So it’s not just about the World Cup Championships going on in our state, it’s about our brand and the flag that others see hanging over our homes, our businesses, and over our heads. It could be those same flags of friendship, hospitality, customer service, compassion and kindness as mentioned before. Or perhaps it could be other flags, like flags of honesty, integrity, hard work, commitment, love, forgiveness, chivalry and fun loving. And just like throughout the year when we can clearly see college flags and professional team flags waving from garages and cars demonstrating fans’ love and loyalty to their teams, people can clearly see our brand, and who we are from a mile away. So which flag are you flying? What is it that you hope people will see in you? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we allow others to see all the good in each of us, it really will be a better than good week.

I feel I must reply to Barbara Morton’s letter in the recent edition of the paper in her reply to my letter commenting on Diane Schrack’s letter on the Douglas County Sheriff’s training facility on South Santa Fe. She wrote several prevarications of facts that should be corrected. One prevarication of the truth is that she stated “guns cause more deaths in this country than any other ‘civilized’ country.” According to Wikipedia, she is entirely wrong in her statement. They list 12 countries that have more deaths than the United States, one of which is Jamaica. I would think Jamaica is civilized. Another untruth she attacked me on is that she stated that “he and his Glock and AK-47 can sleep well at night.” I do not own a Glock or AK-47! I do carry as my duty a 9mm pistol with a concealed-carry permit. I am also considering volunteering for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Reserve Deputy Academy program. With this letter I just want to set the record/truth straight and not attack her as she did me. As a very proud conservative I do not act as liberals so often do

before getting their facts straight. Keith Wanklyn Highlands Ranch

Don’t treat grandma like a dying dog The latest bill before the Colorado House would legalize physician assisted suicide. In cruder terms, “Grandma, why not consider suicide and end your suffering.” But she deserves to draw every last breath naturally, just as you do. If there wasn’t an inherent value of life, then why do people go to the ends of the earth to find life-saving treatments for everything from heart valve malfunctions to cancer enduring chemo, life-saving operations and the like? Why? Because every life has value, even if that life is painful. Suffering is a part of life, in case you haven’t noticed. Just because grandma’s pain is great does not mean her life has less value. When my mom was at the end of her life, I had the great opportunity to return, in a unique way, the love she had given me all my life. To be there in her final moments and minister to her needs, was a time I will always treasure, difficult thought it was, for both of us. To take that time away from families in the form

of legalized suicide is to deprive grandma’s family the opportunity to minister to her and return love in a special way. When my dog was dying, we had her “put down.” It was sad, but she was a dog, not my mom, and while the dog’s life had value, it was not on equal footing with my mom. No one wants to see a person suffer, but suffering is a part of the human condition. Every life has value and the end is in God’s hands and should remain there. Spend those last moments with grandma, however difficult they may be, reciprocating love and enduring it together. Leave euthanasia for the pets. Kitty Nierling Centennial

Life as a club swim parent Eleven years. Eleven years as a parent of club swimmers. It comes to an end in August when my youngest daughter begins school at the University of Northern Colorado. She will swim there, and if all goes well, graduate in four years. My oldest is at Colorado State, studying business and swimming. What does the end of this 11 years mean? We no longer have to consult swim meet schedules

to determine if we can schedule something. No more rising at 5:30 on weekends to pack snacks; check equipment (goggles, suits and Gatorade). No more sitting on uncomfortable benches for five hours to watch your kid compete for approximately 10 minutes. We have watched the girls endure all types of coaches — good, bad, nice, mean, personable, standoffish and banned. Some had more than one of the aforementioned traits. We have seen countless tears, cheers, made cuts and missed cuts. We have spent tens of thousands of dollars over the years for suits, travel, club expenses and equipment. The girls, what did they get? They learned sportsmanship, time-management skills, fitness and lifelong relationships. They trained harder than just about any other known sport. They put in eight practices a week, including two a days requiring them to rise at 4:30 on school days. Will we miss it? Are you kidding? I would do it all over in a splash. My only regret is this chapter is coming to an end and not just beginning. John Salanitro Highlands Ranch

Leaders: Light rail, millennials shape future Panel discussion on southeast area revolves around transit By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Light rail is crucial to the existing and continued economic success of southeast suburban Denver, several area leaders concurred during a Jan. 27 panel discussion on the corridor’s future. Six business and government leaders well-versed in the development boom shared their observations during “The Future of Southeast Suburban,” a two-hour event at the Inverness Hotel sponsored by Bisnow Media. All are dealing with the issues that accompany a robust economy, including building a transportation network needed to keep the momentum going. Several panelists said automobile-averse millennials are changing the face of transit. “They see life differently than we do,” said Scott Menefee, senior development director for Holland Partner Group. “When we were young, we saw cars as freedom; they view it as a liability.” Millennials are among a growing portion of the population seeking jobs and housing within easy walking distance to light rail. That makes Denver and its southeast suburbs attractive to developers. Menefee said Holland Partners, developers of apartment complexes at Belleview Station and Lincoln Station, are “big fans of the southeast corridor.” “The decision-making criteria for us revolve round transit, where the jobs are and where the millennials want to live, and we think the southeast corridor hits very big on all those,” he said. “There are over 440,000 jobs in southeast Denver. It has excellent access to downtown for millennials for their entertainment needs as well. And next year, they will be able to walk a block and a-half from their residence, hop on light rail, go downtown and out to the airport.” Prime West Companies’ CEO Steve Clarke, whose company also is developing at Belleview Station, agreed. “Without TOD (transit-oriented development) and walkable amenities, there’s no way I could get behind a spec project in any market in Denver,” he said.

From left, Denver’s Crissy Fanganello, Lone Tree Mayor Jim Gunning, Coventry’s Keith Simon, Charles Schwab’s Glenn Cooper and Holland Partner Group’s Scott Menefee were part of a Jan. 27 panel discussion on the future of the southeast suburbs. Photo by Jane Reuter Charles Schwab’s Glenn Cooper, in charge of the company’s real estate, confirmed that transit played a large role in its decision to build a campus in Lone Tree that eventually will house 4,000 employees. “We decided we had to be on the I-25 corridor,” he said. “We had to be near a light rail stop. We wanted to be in an area where we could encourage biking. That was what led us to RidgeGate.” As hot a market as the metro area is today, developers cautioned that could change if issues like access to the mountains aren’t addressed. Denver has “become a destination for this creative class of the millennials,” Menefee said. “We want to follow and build housing and retail to serve them. (But) if we can’t continue to offer great quality of life, they’ve shown they are very mobile and will go elsewhere.” Lone Tree Mayor Jim Gunning pointed

Residents cautioned about coyotes Staff report With coyote breeding season underway, Colorado Parks and Wildlife and the City of Centennial are reminding residents to take steps to protect pets from coyotes, which might perceive smaller dogs and cats to be prey. Pet owners are encouraged to minimize encounters between coyotes and cats and dogs by keeping pets enclosed in fenced areas or kennels. The tips from CPW and Centennial urge cat owners to keep their pets indoors, and dog owners should monitor their pets in the yard, especially at night. Because coyotes can scale 6-foot-tall fences, enclosures should contain a roof.

While walking dogs in open spaces, owners should use a short leash. Coyotes can be active any time of day, but are generally wary of humans. In the case of a coyote encounter, residents are advised to make themselves look bigger by lifting up arms or jackets, making loud noises and throwing objects. Never attempt to feed coyotes regardless how tame they may appear. In addition, parents are encouraged to teach their children not to run from coyotes. Stop, do not run or turn your back to the animal. For additional information, contact the City of Centennial, 303-325-8000, or Colorado Parks and Wildlife, 3030-291-7227.

Newton sings up a storm

Six Newton Middle School students were chosen to be part of the 2015 Colorado Middle School All State Choir. Out of more than 1,000 students who auditioned, only 300 students were accepted. Students Derek Fernandez, Jayson Glidden and Leif Olson were selected for the all-state men’s choir and Janie Egan, Madeline Farr and Campbell Finch were selected for the all-state treble choir. The 2015 Colorado Middle School All State Choir will perform Feb. 6 in the Bellco Theater at the Colorado Convention Center.

out that millennials’ habits and needs will change as they age. “Eventually, they’re going to have children,” he said. “Once you have a child, you no longer just live in an apartment. You build a nest. And it’s hard to move that nest. Having (access to) a transportation system allows you to go across town to a job and not move your house.” Increasingly limited transportation funding also will play a large role in how the future unfolds. Crissy Fanganello, Denver’s director of transportation, said light rail and wider highways haven’t kept pace with capacity demands. “We are facing a lot of challenges,” she said. “I hear from the community they have this great desire for more walkable/bikable communities, but they still want to be able to drive from A to B and get free parking.”

Public/private partnerships have succeeded in bringing some major transit projects to life. Several southeast metro entities pooled funds to use toward construction of the southeast light rail extension, which likely will break ground in 2016 and be complete in 2019. The start of that project will be the springboard for development of the portion of RidgeGate east of I-25. Buildings there could be rise as high as 20 stories, and include a mix of residential, retail and civic uses clustered around a light rail stop. “For us, that’s really our concentration of a very urban vision,” said Coventry Development’s Keith Simon, whose company oversees RidgeGate’s development. “Our growth (model) is some urbanity on the west side, a lot on the east side in the city center.”

glowga party Billy Joel set for show at Pepsi Center

Staff report The Highlands Ranch Community Association hosted its first glowga, or glow-in-the-dark yoga, event on Jan. 24 — and it was popular enough to fill capacity at 105 people. Glowga has been a “thing” in the

nation for about three to four years, said instructor Cindy Shoemaker, who has been teaching yoga for six years. Colorado has a fairly large yoga community, she said, and she is excited that glowga was well-received in the Highlands Ranch community. “People love the idea of doing something they don’t do in their

normal lives,” she said. “It’s just about having fun.” The HRCA offers a number of different types of yoga classes through its recreation centers, and a community glowga event will become annual. It may come back at a sooner date because of popular demand, but there are no plans in place as of yet.

After a five-year hiatus, piano man Billy Joel makes his return to Denver Sept. 16 at the Pepsi Center. The show starts at 8 p.m. Joel’s last performance at Pepsi Center was in February 2010. “We are incredibly excited to welcome back Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legend, Billy Joel, to the Pepsi Center in Denver,” said Jim Martin, president and CEO of Kroenke Sports & Entertainment. “It is a true honor to host one of music’s most storied performers for what will be a memorable evening for his fans in Denver and throughout Colorado.” In December 2013, Joel received The Kennedy Center Honors, one of the United States’ top cultural awards. He also has won six Grammy Awards, including the Grammy Legend Award, and has been inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Feb. 6 at www.AltitudeTickets.com.

‘The Taste’ of success

Boulder-bred chef Gabe Kennedy, who now calls New York City home, was the record-setting champion of season three of the ABC cooking competition “The Taste.” Kennedy, who was named the show’s winner on Jan. 22, gets his own cooking show on ABC.com, $100,000 and “The Taste” trophy. The culinary tug-of-war puts 16 contestants — from home cooks to pros — going tongs to tongs to create a single spoonful of food judged by heavyweight foodies Anthony Bourdain, Nigella Lawson, Ludo Lefebvre and Marcus Samuelson. Kennedy’s journey to victory earned him the most gold stars in the series’ history.

Baritone performs at Lone Tree

Nathan Gunn, one of the world’s most in-demand baritones, makes his Denver-area debut at 7:30 p.m. March 10 at the Lone Tree Arts Center, 10075 Commons St., Lone Tree. Gunn’s performance will be accompanied by Julie Jordan Gunn, his wife and accomplished pianist. The decorated baritone has appeared with the Metropolitan Opera, San Francisco Opera, Lyric Opera of Chicago, Royal Opera House Covent Garden, Paris Opera, Bayerische Staatsoper, Glyndebourne Opera Festival, Theater an der Wien, Teatro Real in Madrid and more. Tickets to the Lone Tree concert range from $65 to $75, and can be purchased online at www.lonetreeartscenter.org or by calling 720-509-1000 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.

The group also spent some time hearing about mental health to prepare to drill down on that topic. “You really can’t talk about safety if you don’t talk about mental health,” said Melissa Cooper, director of special education and student support services. Connie Bouwman, deputy superintendent, said the district’s mental-health team is a diverse group committed to collaboration and communication. “I personally believe that 80 to 85 percent of our parents and interested community members don’t really know very much about the services we offer, because they haven’t needed them,” said Bouwman. “We tend to know about the needs of our own child.” The group will meet again on Feb. 11 in preparation for a half-day workshop on Feb. 28. It ultimately will make its final recommendations to the board of education before Superintendent Scott Murphy retires in June.

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF FEB. 2, 2015

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) You need to be certain that all the right conditions are in place before you take that first step. It can’t hurt to listen to good advice from those who have your best interests at heart. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Be careful not to get involved in other people’s disputes unless you know the facts behind the disagreements. That’s the best way to be assured of making wise and honest decisions. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) You still need to be careful about how you’re going to spend those energy reserves you finally got around to restoring. Best advice: Avoid overdoing it. Let things take their course.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Your aspect continues to favor travel -- alone or with that special person. So if you’ve been putting off making those getaway plans, it’s still a good time to get started on them. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Those so-called golden opportunities that continue to dazzle the Lion still need to be carefully checked out. Be suspicious about anything that looks like the “perfect” prospect. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Changes at the workplace could make it more difficult to do things the way you prefer. But the wise Virgo who shows some flexibility could find it paying off in a big way. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) You might want to check out the explanation you were given for a sudden shift in your duties. There’s a possibility that you haven’t been told all the facts that you deserve to know. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Having confidence in your abilities is important, especially when you could be facing a new challenge, whether it’s in the workplace or in a personal relationship. Good luck. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) A new work-related opportunity might not be all that it seems. Before making any decisions, you might want to check with others who have had some experience in that area. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) A situation involving someone close could benefit from your timely intervention. Avoid being judgmental. There’ll be plenty of time later for those “little talks” you like to have. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Travel could be a surprise element in that new project. Be prepared for other previously undisclosed aspects that also might come to light as you proceed with the work. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) Try to balance your work-related responsibilities with the time you’re spending on your recently revived social life. An old friend might be planning to return after a long absence. BORN THIS WEEK: Your sensitivity makes you aware of the needs of others.

IF YOU GO

Fabled queen’s story is explored in dance ‘Marie’ interprets monarch’s life through modern lens By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com Marie Antoinette’s life has been the inspiration for books, plays, films and speculation for many years, but a Wonderbound production always offers a new and original perspective on any topic. Artistic director Garrett Ammon has made a point over the years of collaborating with a local music organization when he choreographs a new work for his company. Here, in “Marie,” he will combine contemporary dance and period music to interpret the queen of France’s court life and emotion-laden journey, with a twist. The ballet looks at psychological, social, political and romantic complexities in the French court and the seething world around it — viewing the scene through a contemporary lens. This year, the Baroque Chamber Orchestra of Colorado is on tap to provide 17thand 18th-century accompaniment, playing period instruments and interpreting music by Baroque composers such as Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber, Jean-Marie LeClair

IF YOU GO “Marie” is presented at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 14 and 2 p.m. Feb. 15 at the PACE Center, 20000 Pikes Peak Ave., Parker. Tickets: $35-$40 303-805-6800, ParkerArts.org. and Jean-Phillipe Rameau. The world premiere production will be presented at the PACE Center in Parker on Feb. 14-15 and at the Performing Arts Complex at Pinnacle Charter School in Federal Heights on Feb. 21-22. While music of the 17th and 18th centuries may sound formal to the 21st-century ear, there was actually a spirit of improvisation alive with the instruments available at the time. The two ensembles first collaborated in 2012 (“A Dangerous Liaison”) and they stimulate new ideas in both organizations as they create a new work together. We are told that this production contains the largest number of costume changes yet for the company — designed by Rachel Kras, who speaks of a “Baroque fever dream.” An added available treat is a Valentine’s Day dinner at The Parker Garage, Parker’s newest restaurant. Two tickets and two five-course special dinners are available for $180 — including a 20 percent cut in the dinner price. See ParkerArts.org for details.

Arapahoe girls net victory Defense, accurate shooting earn Warriors 79-62 win over Cherokee Trail By Tom Munds

tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com Swish. The sound of the three-pointer hitting nothing but net opened the Jan. 28 game and set the tone as the Warriors girls basketball team posted a 79-62 league win over Cherokee Trail. Arapahoe hit its first five shots from the field to quickly establish a 12-2 lead and built on the advantage for the victory. “Things went well for us tonight,” Warriors Coach Jerry Knafelc said. “All the girls played well against a good team. We played good defense and shot the ball well tonight. It was a good win for our team.”

With the victory, the Warriors are in third place in the Centennial League with an overall season record of 11-4 and a league record to 5-2. The team faced a challenge Jan. 30 when they traveled to meet Grandview, but came away with a 59-56 win against the No. 2 team in the league. Arapahoe was then at home against Mullen Feb. 4, on the road Feb. 6 at Eaglecrest and play a home non-league game Feb. 9 against Palmer. The Arapahoe players got thing going their way early in the Jan. 28 game. The opening three-point shot was followed by two steals that triggered layups as Warriors repeatedly stepped into the lanes to pick off Cougar passes and won most of the battles for loose basketballs off the backboard. Arapahoe made good use of their offensive possessions as they shot 53 percent from the field and their field goals included 10 baskets from three-point range. They spread the ball around and nine players scored points for the Warriors.

“I am pleased with our play tonight,” the coach said. “We are a very young team with only two seniors on our roster. At times this year we have played well, but other times, we didn’t.” On offense, the coach likes good guard play to push the pace, triggering drives to the basket. However, his players usually also shoot pretty well from outside, he said. The focus of the defense is to put pressure on the player with the ball and defensive success leads to the team’s success overall, he said. Senior Jennah Knafelc paced the Warrior attack with 28 points that included four three-pointers. She also hauled down seven rebounds and made five steals. Teammate Katie Crowley scored 11 points, Macy Zigler contributed 10 points to the winning effort as did Annabelle Brewer and Elianna Kearby who scored eight points each. Knafelc credited her success to teammates. “I guess it was being in the right place at the right time,” the senior said. “I got really

great passes, I got some good looks and I hit the shots. I shoot pretty well from outside, but I don’t like to limit myself to outside shots because I like to drive to the basket too.” As the season is entering the home stretch, she is focusing on not turning the ball over and playing good defense, she said. “I got a little foul happy tonight,” she said. “I want to try to clean that up a little so I can play tight defense without the fouls.” Knafelc likes the fast-pace style the Warriors play. The up-tempo play makes the game fun, she said. The senior focuses on basketball and doesn’t play any other sport at this time. “I don’t have any individual goals for the season,” she said. “I guess my goal is to help our team to get as far as we can and play well together. We are young but our chemistry is getting there, and I think things look very good for us as we go into the final weeks of the season.”

Bruins fall to Golden Eagles on ice Mountain Vista hockey team battles to 4-1 win over Cherry Creek By Tom Munds

tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com Sounds accompanying the battle on the ice included lusty cheers, the pop of pads and the crash of players checked into the boards on Jan 31 in the prep hockey game Mountain Vista outscored Cherry Creek, 4-1. “It was a tough game against a very good hockey team,” said Lev Cohen, Mountain Vista coach. “It was a battle. The shorthanded goal set the tone for us as we just stuck with our game plan of putting the puck deep and working from there.” The Cherry Creek coach said, minus a couple mistakes, his team played great. “We played well and the intensity was good the whole game,” Bruins Coach Jeff Mielnicki said after the game. “On that first

goal, we gave away the break-away and that short-handed goal was a killer. It didn’t help that we missed a couple empty net opportunities. But, the game is now history, and we’ll work to get better and move forward from here.” The game was a cross-division clash and doesn’t impact either team’s league standings. Mountain Vista came into the game 10-1-1 overall and the 8-1 record put them in second place in the Peak League. The Bruins came in at 11-1 overall and their 8-1 record tied them for third in the Foothills League. Cherry Creek returns to action Feb. 6 at home against Steamboat Springs and on Feb. 7 are on home ice against Dakota Ridge. A road trip against Peak League leader Air Academy is scheduled Feb. 9. Cherry Creek play its home games at the Family Sports Center. Mountain Vista’s next game is Feb. 4 against Standley Lake then is at South Suburban Ice Arena Feb. 6 to battle Air Ice continues on Page 20

Academy. The next day they are at the same location against Heritage. Players rapidly moved up and down the ice during the fast-pace Jan. 31 Mountain Vista-Cherry Creek game. Good shots proved hard to come by as both teams played hard-hitting defense. Cherry Creek was on a power play midway through the first period when Golden Eagle senior Reid Goodman intercepted a pass, raced up the ice and put the puck in the net. Mountain Vista added a second period goal by Derek Nead, assisted by Bryan Hancock. Late in the period, Tanner Gillis scored for the Golden Eagles on an assist from Kaden Stewart to put Mountain Vista up 3-0. The Bruins made the game closer seconds later when Bruin sophomore Sam Harris put the puck in the net on an assist from Kody Poon to make the score 3-1. Play in the fourth quarter went up and down the ice as the Bruins sought to score and the Golden Eagles battled to protect their lead. Late in the period, Cherry Creek sought to push the attack and pulled the goalie. But Mountain Vista took advantage as Goodman scored an empty net goal on an assist by Charlie Friedman. Goodman was on the penalty-killing

line in the first period, and he saw a pass coming, picked it off and pushed up the ice. “I saw the goalie’s position and shot low to the wide side of the net and it went in,” he said. “It was a physical game, a fast-pace game and that is how we like it.” He said it not his first two-goal game but he has no personal goals for the season. “My only goal was to help our team to get to the playoffs and win state,” he said. Bruin sophomore Harris talked about the goal he scored in the second period. “We were breaking out of the zone, the pass came to me on the wing, I skated it down the ice and shot it,” he said. “I shot the puck far side on the goalie’s glove side. I think their goalie expected me to shoot low trying to get a good rebound. But I saw he was pretty close to the post on one side so I shot high to his glove side for the goal.” Harris is a goal scorer for his team. He said he has played on the wing most of his hockey career and this season, the coach moved him to center. “As a winger, you are between the defense and the net while playing center you are covering the defenseman on your side and you are in the high slot,” he said. “I work hard to get rebounds and it has helped me score about a goal a game. I am the center on the second and on the third lines right now. My goal for the season is to keep improving and to move up to the center on the first line.”
