Arapahoe, in a healing light Candlelight event marks anniversary of high school shooting By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Battling the beast called grief is often best done together, so on the anniversary of the Arapahoe High School shooting, the south metro community showed up in force to honor Claire Davis. “We are stronger, we are more aware, we are focused, we are kinder, we are united and, ultimately, we are successful,” Sanjay Patil, student body president, told the hundreds who gathered at Clarity Commons on the Arapahoe High campus. On the chilly evening of Dec. 13, friends sought each other out and parents held their children close. While many tears refused to be contained, mundane conversations about holiday plans, roofers, where to go for dinner proved that life must and does go on.
A WAY TO HELP The Claire Davis remembrance ceremony served as a fundraiser for TLC Meals on Wheels and Denver Health’s Family Crisis Center. Desiree Davis, Claire’s mother, said even if people couldn’t make it to the ceremony, “We hope you’ll consider honoring our daughter by supporting these charities.” Those who want to share can donate at www.tlcmealsonwheels.org. TLC Meals on Wheels enriches the lives of homebound seniors and others in south-metro Denver by providing nutritious meals and services. Donations of new stuffed animals can be dropped off at the Family Crisis Center Medical Offices, 2929 W. 10th Ave. in Denver. Many of the children served by the center have been physically or sexually abused, neglected or removed from their homes to be placed in foster care. The stuffed animals left at Arapahoe High School in the days following last year’s tragedy were donated to the Family Crisis Center.
But it must go on with a purpose, with a vision to make things better, said those who addressed the solemn crowd.
Arapahoe High School student body president Sanjay Patil said the school will never be the same after the shooting that took Davis’ life. “We are stronger. We are kinder. We are united.” “If you want to change the world, love the person in front of you, love the person next to you,” said Jeff Brandberg, an Arapahoe teacher who had Claire in several classes. “Love them for who they are and who they are becoming, and love yourself for
who you are and who you are becoming.” Brandberg spoke of the love that exists in the Davis family, noting that Claire once Healing continues on Page 15
Leaders get experience of lifetime Coalition had ‘robust business agenda’ in nation’s capital By Christy Steadman csteadman@colorado communitymedia.com

It was a bustling three days in the nation’s capital — people were protesting the Keystone XL pipeline project and the World Health Organization was having a function on Ebola. Amid it all was a group of south metro Denver’s elected officials, educators and two graduate students, chamber of com-
merce members and business leaders. The trip to Washington, D.C., was very successful, said Jeff Wasden, president of the Colorado Business Roundtable, because there was something for everybody. “It was a Wasden once-in-a-lifetime experience for those who had never gone before,” he said, “and the veterans to D.C. got to experience something new.” The 24 attendees visited Washington for three days Nov.
18-20. The main purposes included building relationships, increasing visibility locally and nationally, gaining knowledge and providing input to national leaders. “An understanding of the issues critical to our representatives at the federal level, and how those can end up affecting us locally, is key,” said Josh Martin, Parker mayor pro tem. The group had a full itinerary with a “very robust business agenda,” Wasden said, which included meetings with the National Business Roundtable, the Leaders continues on Page 23

Undocumented woman unbowed, unbroken When she was 11 and caring for four younger brothers and sisters in a rural Mexican town, Rocío Méndez looked into her heart for strength. When she was 15, hiding in a dumpster from immigration officers in Arizona after walking four days through desert and mountains, she looked into her heart for courage. Last week, when she completed the last exam needed for her college degree, Rocío, now 22, again looked into her heart. This time, she found happiness. “Education has always been my heart,” she said. “Education has always been my motivation. It has been my life.” The passion to learn has been the fire that propelled her through unimaginable adversity — drug-war violence, family tragedy, poverty and hunger — and that lifted her when hope threatened to slip from her grasp. “Her story is nothing less than a miracle,” her high school teacher Lisa Wille-Racine said. “She was relentless. … She is relentless. She didn’t ever lose sight of her dream.” But the dream isn’t finished: It won’t be until she can live and work here legally.
Hope amid tumult
That goal could become reality under a provision in President Obama’s proposed executive order, which includes revisions to the 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. DACA, as it is known, excluded Rocío because she arrived here in 2008, one year too late. The Nov. 20 proposal, however, expands the cutoff to 2010 and gives those children a three-year reprieve from deportation and the opportunity to apply for the needed permit to work. Republicans have threatened to block the president’s immigration action when Congress reconvenes in January. But amid the political tumult, Rocío — who has lobbied with fellow students for the still-
THE PRESIDENT’S ACTION On Nov. 20, President Obama announced an executive immigration order to create a program that would allow 4 million to 5 million immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally to apply to work legally — as long as they have no criminal record, have lived in the U.S. for at least five years and have children. They could also qualify to become eligible for Medicare and Social Security.
unpassed DREAM Act in Washington, D.C. — and Wille-Racine stay optimistic. Regardless of how one feels about Obama, Wille-Racine said, “at least he sees the richness and the powerfulness and the extraordinariness of kids who don’t call their country home any more. These are kids with no country who see the only way to rise above poverty is through education.” Petite with black hair just beyond her shoulders and a wide but rare smile, Rocío is one of 1.4 million undocumented students in the U.S. brought here by parents who entered illegally. Many, as in Rocío’s case, were searching for a better life. Each year, according to studies, about 65,000 undocumented students graduate from American high schools. But, impeded by financial hardship and lack of legal documentation, fewer than 10,000 enroll in college. When Rocío graduated — with honors — from a Castle Rock high school in 2010, Colorado did not offer in-state tuition to undocumented students. So, with WilleRacine’s help, she enrolled in New Mexico Highlands University in Las Vegas, N.M., where she met criteria for in-state tuition offered also to students in her situation. Today, 18 states allow in-state tuition rates for undocumented students. Fourteen do so through legislation. The first were California and Texas in 2001; New Mexico did so in 2005; Colorado joined the group in 2013.
The executive action also revises the 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals by allowing children brought here illegally before 2010 to stay — previously, the year was 2007. It also removes the 30-year-old upper age limit and extends the two-year relief from deportation to three years. Under DACA, anyone with deferred action can apply for a work permit. To qualify, children must: • Have come to the U.S. before their 16th birthday • Have continuously lived in the U.S. since Jan. 1, 2010 • Be in school, have graduated from high school, obtained a GED, or have been honorably discharged from the armed forces • Have not been convicted of a felony or serious misdemeanors The DREAM Act, which Congress still has not passed, is bipartisan legislation that would permit certain immigrant students who have grown up in the U.S. to apply for temporary legal status, and eventually permanent legal status, and become eligible for U.S. citizenship if they attend college or serve in the military. It would apply to most students who came here at age 15 or younger, have lived here continuously at least five years before the bill’s enactment and have no criminal record.
Rocío, who has always wanted to be a teacher, remembers sitting in the office at Highlands’ School of Education: “The adviser … told me you can get an education, you can study to be a teacher. At the end, you’re not going to be eligible to teach because you have no legal status.” The words shattered Rocío. She turned to Wille-Racine, tears in her eyes. “There is nothing for me here,” she said. Wille-Racine reassured her there would be something. “Politics are changing quickly,” she said. “In four years, we can decide if it was worth it or not.”
Accident changed all To fully understand the price of that leap of faith, you have to go back to the beginning of Rocío’s story.
The family lived in a town of fewer than 500 people about two hours southeast of Mexico City. Her father, who finished two years of elementary school, grew flowers to sell in the city. Her mother, who completed sixth grade, cared for the children. Tragedy struck when Rocío’s 18-monthold sister was critically injured in a car accident. To provide the best medical care, her father borrowed money and sold everything he could, including the land on which he grew his flowers, to send her to a private hospital. Her sister eventually recovered, but her father could no longer earn enough to support the family. “You have to have money to pay — if you don’t, that person is going to die,” Healey continues on Page 9
CORRECTION In the Nov. 28 edition of the Centennial Citizen, the story “Silver tsunami faces housing crisis” stated that Medicare can pay for assisted living. It does not. Medicaid can pay for such services under some circumstances.

since a high of 16,284 in 2001. In 2011, there were 15,040 students. The trend is often attributed to Littleton’s aging population. By 2030, more than 10,000 baby boomers are expected to be living in Littleton — nearly a quarter of the city’s present population — according to Denver Regional Council of Governments forecasts. According to census data, Littleton’s median age is 42, compared to 35.8 in the greater Denver metro area. Seniors are the only age category expected to grow in in the city. That doesn’t leave a lot of room for young families with children to move in, so they’re moving to surrounding communities. Nearly 20 percent of the students this year are from out of district, about the same as last year. “Without the increasing number of students choosing LPS from outside the district, … the district would have had more declining enrollment,” reads Doney’s report. Enrollment matters partly because state funding for schools is based on it. Doney expects the district to get nearly $400,000 less this year due to the decline. It also matters to ensure buildings are being used efficiently. When it became apparent in 2009 that wasn’t the case, the school board had to make the tough decision to close Whitman and Ames elementary schools.

CENTENNIAL NEWS IN A HURRY All good trees come to an end South Suburban Park and Recreation District and the City of Centennial will offer free Christmas tree recycling from Dec. 26 through Jan. 12. Locations include the Willow Spring Service Center at 7100 S. Holly St., Lookout Park at 5455 S. Riviera Way and Piney Creek Hollow Park, 6140 S. Tower Road. It is anticipated free mulch will be available for private use at those locations starting Dec. 29. All decorations need to be removed from the trees, and flocked or artificial trees and yard refuse will not be accepted. Most trash and waste removal companies do not accept Christmas trees, so residents are encouraged to take advantage of this free program.
New officer for county’s veterans’ services The Arapahoe County Board of County Commissioners has appointed Tim Westphal as County Veterans Service Officer following the retirement of Rick Stewart. Westphal joined Arapahoe County in early 2013 as the assistant veterans

He also worked for two years as a client relations supervisor for Oppenheimer Funds. Westphal served seven years in the U.S. Army as an Infantry Squad Leader in Schweinfurt, Germany, and was honorably discharged in 2005. He holds a bachelor’s degree in behavioral science and history from Metropolitan State University of Denver.

Arapahoe/Douglas Works works, clients say Federally funded program helps people seeking jobs By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com When Lynn Johnson’s executive position came to an end, she didn’t know it would end up being not such a bad thing. “I got an amazing job, and I couldn’t be happier,” said Johnson, who is now making more money as the director of human resources at a community college. She did it with the help of Arapahoe/ Douglas Works, which has a goal of helping people find jobs a level up from their last one. In fact, its recently released annual report indicates that job-seekers who utilize its services average nearly $14,000 a year more in earnings than those who don’t, adding up to a nearly $221 million boost to the local economy. “It’s not just about turning lives around. It affects the economy in a positive way,” said Pat Holwell, ADW workforce econo-

ADW staff suggested minor changes to her resume, helping her make her message more concise. They even set her up in a professional office for a Skype interview, something her new employer said helped seal the deal. “They said that’s one thing they really liked, that I wasn’t working but still looked professional,” said Johnson. Joseph Barela, division manager, said there are lots of people like Johnson who need some coaching for the 21st-century job search. “There are a lot of people who are out of

It’s time for a holiday from the holidays Where did Christmas go? And when? I wonder if home-shopping channels had anything to do with it. They start advertising Christmas merchandise in September. And I begin to see Santa snowboarding on a Norelco in November. Christmas used to be a day, and then it was a few days. It was a few days of shopping and anticipation, and now it’s a season. I am not here to humbug it: I just want to know when it all changed. And it has all changed, at least for me. If you are half my age, Christmases that start in September are all you know. Christmas has become a monster, really. It bares its red and green teeth on the day after Thanksgiving, the most heinous day of the year. Some families make Black Friday an annual event. Line up in the night, and scramble into stores when they open. I would lose my mind. I am uncomfortable around people to begin with, and being around a lot of them with that intent would be unbearable. And it all starts to go back the day after Christmas. I don’t understand. But I don’t understand a lot of things. Why anyone would watch reruns of “Murphy Brown,” unless they lost a bet. I have a friend who couldn’t be happier that Christmas music is played in November, and I am sure that I offend him when I say that it is criminal. Every year he reads “A Christmas Carol.”
That’s good. Dickens was brilliant. I sent my friend a copy of the book, printed in the 19th century. That seems like a wonderful tradition. I think we all know the story, but we forget the wording, which is clever and descriptive and unlike any other wording in literature. (By the way, “What the dickens?” and similar phrases, do not refer to Charles Dickens. Answer below.) My parents kept all of our Christmas decorations in a great big box. The box went with us from Michigan to Pennsylvania, California, Ohio, Tennessee and back to Michigan. Every year we got it out. The colorful cardboard boxes that the tree lights were in preserved the unmistakable smell of accumulated years. Eventually, in my 50s, I petitioned to avoid Christmas travel, and it was approved. Flying back and forth that week was never fun. I sometimes wound up spending the night in airports or in airport hotels. In 1955 all I had to do was walk down-
stairs. We were living near Uniontown, Pa. My father was selling Buicks. There was a Christmas parade. The four of us were in a Buick convertible. Santa was in the back seat. He was. He waved to the crowd, which wasn’t very crowded, and threw candy canes at people. He didn’t have much of an arm. When we reached the end, and it was time to go home, Santa asked my father for a ride. I leaned forward to hear the address, thinking that it might be Canada at the very least and that we were in for a long night. Santa lived a few blocks from us. There was nothing special about his house. I didn’t see a single elf or a single reindeer. I began to have doubts. Now I have doubts about other things. We are smothered with covenants out here — that generally, now, go unchecked — but there are no aesthetic covenants when it comes to exterior Christmas decor. I guess that’s OK. I look at it this way: The kids in those houses don’t know aesthetics from tinsel yet, but they know colorful lights, and maybe they know great expectations. “Dickens” is a euphemism for the devil. I drink eggnog. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast. net.
Set alarm, and set out on right path The early bird catches the worm … and some pretty incredible sunrises here in Colorado too, wouldn’t you agree? I mean is it just me or have the sunrises been even more spectacular lately? Many years ago I was listening to one of my motivational programs by Zig Ziglar. And during one of the segments Zig talked about the discipline of waking up early as a key element of success. As a matter of fact, I recently read an article on the topic of success that underscored that very concept. The consistent behavior amongst some of the world’s most successful people is to wake up early. And it’s not just about waking up early, it’s really about what we do with that extra time that we give ourselves. As I remembered Zig’s program and as I associated his message with some of the ideas shared in the above mentioned article, here are some of the ways that successful people use their special early morning time: • Reading (mind) — committing dedi-
cated time to reading something that will expand our knowledge base. It could be the Bible, a devotional book, an industry magazine, a business book, biography, or even the newspaper. Staying current on local issues, national news, and global information helps keep us well-informed and in a better position to engage in meaningful conversations with others. Zig Ziglar used to start each day reading the Bible and the newspaper and would say, “This way I know what both sides are up to.” • Physical fitness (body) — too often we
have the best of intentions to include some form of exercise into each day only to run out of minutes and hours or have other priorities trump our desire to work out. And as our busy-ness escalates, the excuse to dismiss or blow off or physical fitness becomes easier and easier. Now, many people are extremely disciplined and get their workout in at a regularly schedule time later in the day, and for those committed individuals they can use the extra morning time for reading or meditation and prayer time. • Meditation or prayer time (spirit) — spending a portion of the early morning reflecting on our families, our work, and other important relationships, or just sitting in silence, quieting our minds and allowing our emotions and energy to come together in a moment of meditation or prayer. Waking early with the intent of spending some peaceful time within our favorite spot in our home or with Mother Nature also helps Norton continues on Page 9

Rocío said. After two months “we didn’t have any money. In Mexico, we couldn’t survive anymore.” Her parents crossed the border in 2001 and ended up in Castle Rock, where he worked construction and landscaping and she cleaned hotels and businesses. The children stayed behind with grandparents, but Rocío — beginning at age 11 — essentially became the mom. She bought groceries, cooked, got them ready for school, talked to teachers about their progress. Most importantly, she said, she kept them safe, including from drug dealers who wanted payments for security. All the while, she excelled in her studies, winning top prizes in her classes. “I was so anxious to learn, to know stuff,” she said. “I was happy because going to school was going to make a difference.” But when it came time for high school, the family didn’t have the money to pay for the better private education in Mexico. And the culture discouraged girls from continuing school. That included her family. A teacher recommended Rocío study in the United States. It’s better over there, he said. “Since that day,” she said, “I want to go to school. I want to go to school. I want to go to school … I didn’t know I was going to walk. I didn’t know it was so dangerous. I just knew I wanted to go to school.” Rocío’s parents had returned to Mexico in 2004 when her grandmother died. A year later, her dad went back to Castle Rock. And in February 2008, her mother decided to rejoin him and bring Rocío and her then-five younger siblings. They tried to get student visas to emigrate legally, Rocío said, but didn’t have enough money. So, with a guide and Rocío’s uncle, they crossed the border on foot. Rocío and the adults carried the heaviest of six bags, which held tuna, bread, beans and gallons of water — enough, they thought, for four days. They walked mostly at night and slept under bushes during daylight. They crossed deserts, mountains, highways and ranches. They skirted an airport. They ran out of water on the second day. By the third day, the two men gave up their food portions so the children could eat. On the fourth day, as the group walked along train tracks near a factory in Arizona, a man saw them and began talking on his phone. “Ya nos echaron la migra — they’ve called immigration,” her uncle yelled. “Scatter and run!” Her uncle covered Rocío’s mother, two sisters and a brother with sand in a nearby dry creek bed. Another brother climbed

I can tell you firsthand that the benefits of waking early far outweigh the perceived need to sleep in for a couple of extra hours.

up a tree. Rocío jumped into a dumpster filled with trash. She heard dogs barking and police talking. She stayed there for hours, until her uncle came for her. “It was something I hope I never have to live again,” she said. That evening, they reached a hotel in a town called Guadalupe, south of Phoenix where her father — who in 2010 received a work permit — picked them up. He took them to Walmart to buy food and clothes. “Oh, my God,” Rocío said, as she wandered through the store. “This is amazing.”
answers, and half the time I didn’t have them.” Said Rocío: “Lisa, she always, always had hope.”
afraid, nothing is going to happen and we will be the same — invisible people living here. If we the students don’t make the change, nobody is going to make it for us.” She is proud of what she’s accomplished, particularly that she’s set a path for others to follow. Two brothers, also undocumented, are also at Highlands. “I don’t know how to describe how I feel,” Rocío said. “I just feel special, lucky to go to college, to be the first person in my family to finish high school, to finish college. It makes me feel I should work even more.” Last spring, her sister Miriam, who graduates from high school in May, wrote this for her high school publication: “My sister, Rocío, is my hero, because when my parents had to come to the United States to work to be able to … buy what we needed, she was 15 years old. She took care of me, my sister and two brothers, and she had to go to school, too … When we moved here … a lot of people would tell her she wouldn’t go further in school because she didn’t understand English. But … she never gives up. Now, she is almost done with college.” On Dec. 12, Rocío received her degree in Spanish with a minor in Native American-Hispano studies. She would like to pursue a master’s in education in curriculum and instruction. She would like to teach. But she can’t — she doesn’t have a Social Security number or a work permit. So she waits. And hopes. And continues to look into her heart for the truth she has carried with her always: “Education is the only key to success.”
Strange new world
In Castle Rock, Rocío entered school in March as a sophomore — 14 credits transferred from her high school in Mexico. “The first day I was so scared, I didn’t talk to anyone,” she said. “The only thing I knew how to say was `Hi.’ I was happy to be able to continue my education. I was eating lunch and I told myself, `You have to work hard — this isn’t going to be easy.’” It wasn’t. Many days, the frustration of being unable to communicate in English, the struggle academically, the isolation socially, left her in tears. That’s how Wille-Racine met her, crying, huddled in a corner behind a teacher’s desk. “I saw those little eyes looking at me and I said, `Well, hello,’” Wille-Racine said. “That moment changed the rest of my life.” That moment threw Wille-Racine, a Spanish and English as a Second Language teacher and mother of 15-year-old twins, into an unfamiliar world she would come to know intimately — the limbo and uncharted territory of undocumented students. And Rocío’s determination to succeed in school, despite the unceasing obstacles, moved her deeply. “She was fierce,” Wille-Racine said. “So I decided to be fierce right along her side.” When it came time for college, the teacher and the student figured it out as they went: whom to call, where to go, what to do. On her end, Rocío scrambled to find ways to pay for the education she so desperately wanted. She worked two jobs during summers, including cleaning hotels. She borrowed money from friends, which she later repaid. She won a $6,000 scholarship. She cleaned and cooked in return for room and food. At times, she gave up food money for tuition money. Teachers and friends of Wille-Racine also helped by contributing money, clothes, transportation and, sometimes, simply a helping hand. Whenever an obstacle appeared, WilleRacine would take a deep breath and wait until, she said, God would work some magic. “I always felt responsible to make something happen,” Wille-Racine said. “She was just looking to me for all the

Blossoming in college
College changed everything for Rocío. In high school, she’d often felt alone, invisible. At Highlands, she realized there were many people like her — undocumented, fighting to attend college, working two or three jobs just to be able to go to school. “I found a family,” she said. That newfound community helped her gain confidence, to believe she could make a difference and give back to a society that had given her so much. She joined student organizations that worked with immigration issues at local, state and national levels. They trained administrators about immigration laws, provided legal help to students applying for deferred status, protested and lobbied for change, traveled to conferences to educate themselves about undocumented issues in other states. In November 2013, Rocío traveled to Washington, D.C., with a student organization to lobby for immigration reform. The group staged a mock Thanksgiving dinner in the early morning hours in front of House Speaker John Boehner’s house to show how the holiday would be sad for children separated from families because of deportation. Then students headed to the Capitol to talk to senators and protest for immigration change. “I’ve become an activist,” Rocío said. “I’ve become a fighter for my undocumented community. I’ve become a person unafraid …” The opportunities that college has provided her, Rocío said, solidified her willingness to step into the open despite possible legal consequences. “I’m still insecure in this country,” she said. “They can deport me any time. But we have to make a difference. If we are

ince November, Santa Claus has been just about everywhere in the south metro area. Such a distinguished gentleman always has a change of clothes at the ready, and indeed, he’s a man of many hats. Whether it’s eating breakfast with or telling stories to kids, arriving at a mall in a fire truck, cruising around on a motorcycle or asking children what they want for Christmas, he is truly a man for all seasons. However, this is the season he shines brightest.

Making ugly meaningful Hideous holiday sweaters bring folks together, merchant says By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Hold on to your crocheted stocking hat with your knitted mittens — ugly Christmas sweater season has arrived. “It’s about laughter, happiness,” said Elizabeth Blume, owner of the ClothingX-Change consignment store in the Oakbrook Shopping Center. “It’s really about feeling part of something.” Blume realized last year that the ugly sweater craze was really catching on. “It’s just become a phenomenon,” she said. Dec. 12 is now “National Ugly Christmas Sweater Day,” when everyone is supposed to don the most catastrophic cardigan they can find and go on about their business as though everything was normal. “Wear it to school, to work, to a funeral, to your sister’s wedding,” reads the website at www.nationaluglychristmassweaterday. org. “Got an important interview on Friday? Oops, tough luck. Worried the judge will increase your sentence if you show up to court in an ugly Christmas sweater?
Sorry bud, no exceptions.” Then, on Dec. 20, the Ugly Sweater Run 5K will commence from Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, a benefit for Save the Children’s “Make the World Better with a Sweater” campaign. “If you want to wear spandex under your sweater and race fast, that’s cool, but you’re missing the point,” according to the event’s website. “This is a fun run to burn some calories before slamming some hot chocolate and Sam Adams.” For Blume, hopping on the ugly sweater bandwagon was a no-brainer. Back in the ‘80s, she studied fashion in Paris, got a master’s degree in international business and marketing and ended up in Hong Kong designing sweaters for The Limited. A husband and two kids later, she settled in Castle Rock and fed her passion for the garment industry by working at the Cotton Kloset consignment store in Parker. Blume calls the owner of that store, Sandy Yates, her inspiration for opening Clothing-X-Change in 2010. Now, she hopes to pass that same inspiration onto her own employees. “I’m so blessed to be able to employ people,” she said. “I want to be a mentor. I want to emulate Tim Gunn (of Project Runway fame), where he mentors people into their next thing.” Her thing this holiday season is scrounging up the worst, mostly vintage, sweaters
Elizabeth Blume is jumping on the ugly Christmas sweater craze in a big way. Photo by Jennifer Smith she can find and making them even more delightfully tacky. She can add blinking lights, ornaments, garland, tinsel — any and all the accoutrements of Christmas. “We try to find things you can’t really find anywhere else to make them unique,” she said. Fortunately, she hasn’t faced the horror of discovering any sweaters she designed in the “ugly sweater” pile.
“But there have been some that have come pretty close,” she laughs. For her, the sweaters are just one more way to bring tradition and togetherness to families and friends throughout the season. “They’re unifying, equalizing. They put everyone on a level playing field,” she said. “I love Christmas, and the reason for the season. I just love God.”

An emotional Michael Davis called for the end of senseless violence as he spoke Dec. 13 to a crowd of more than 500 people who gathered to remember his daughter, Claire, who lost her life after a school shooting a year ago.
Healing Continued from Page 1

Students and members of the community watch as volunteers prepare to release illuminated balloons in memory of Claire Davis during a candlelight ceremony held Dec. 13 at Clarity Commons on the Arapahoe High School campus.
wrote that her family was the biggest influence on shaping the young woman she was becoming — until classmate Karl Pierson erased too many chapters of her life that will forever go unwritten. On Dec. 13, 2013, Pierson shot Claire, who died eight days later. “It’s been a year since any of us last talked to Claire, or have seen the twinkle in her eye and the bounce in her walk,” said her father, Michael Davis. “We have to learn from this. We have to learn what went wrong, and we have to work together to fix it.” Gov. John Hickenlooper said that in this often-chaotic holiday season, it was good for the community to come together to support the Arapahoe community and the Davis family. “We are all gifts to them and to one another,” he said. Hickenlooper asked the guests to observe the 14 illuminated balloons that students were holding on top of a hill, explaining that they represented the 14 Colorado
students who have died as a result of school violence in recent history: Cassie Bernall, Steve Curnow, Corey DePooter, Kelly Fleming, Matt Kechter, Daniel Mauser, Daniel Rohrbough, Rachel Scott, Isaiah Shoels, John Tomlin, Lauren Townsend and Kyle Velasquez, Columbine High School, April 20, 1999; Emily Keyes, Platte Canyon High School, Sept. 27, 2006; and Claire. As Hickenlooper set the first candle ablaze, he asked that its light stand for healing. “There is light and love within each of us that we must not be afraid to share,” he said. “… We will show that our love can actually touch the sky.” As the healing light washed through the crowd, Bob Dylan’s “I’ll Remember You,” sung by Thea Gilmore, stirred a wave of emotion. “I’ll remember you At the end of the trail I had so much left to do I had so little time to fail.” When the students released the balloons, two of them separated from the others and lingered behind, perhaps not quite ready to go gently into that good night. “They turned into stars,” said one small girl, watching them slowly rise as she held her mother’s hand.

South Metro Fall Athletes of the Year Coming next week: football By Jim Benton jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Three state champions, the Continental League softball batting champion and a pitcher who recorded two perfect games headline the 10 athletes selected as the Colorado Community Media South Metro Players of the Year for the fall season. Coaches were consulted in the selection of athletes from the schools covered by our newspapers in the south metro area. The CCM All-South Metro football teams and players of the year will be announced in next week’s editions. SkyView Academy junior Ben Butler won the Class 3A individual cross country championship and was tabbed as the boys ross country Runner of the Year. Junior Allison Smith of Ponderosa was the volleyball Player of the Year. Jacob Bendalin and Wyatt Dale of Cherry Creek captured the Class 5A No. 1 doubles title and were the tennis Players of the Year. Rock Canyon sophomore Sloane Stewartson won her second consecutive Continental League batting championship and was the softball Pitcher of the Year while Castle View’s Savannah Heebner took home the honors as the Pitcher of the Year. Several difficult choices had to be made in selecting the top performers in each sport. For instance, it was hard to overlook volleyball players like Kasie Gilfert of Legend and Castle View’s Madison Laufenberg. And in softball, Ponderosa strikeout leader Ally Power deserved recognition, as did Douglas County infielder Clara Larson. Valor Christian won the Class 4A softball title behind the pitching of Alexandra Kilponen and hitting of center fielder Kendall Ohman. The following are the Colorado Community Media fall Players of the Year:
GOLF: Jake Staiano, Valor Christian, senior
The Jefferson County Player of the Year was 16-under par in the five league tournaments. He was second in Class 4A state golf tournament with Staiano a 4-under-par 140. Staino carded one round of 65 and averaged 69.1 for the season. He will play golf at Colorado State University next year.
to a .154 average. Heebner led the team in hitting with a .444 average that included eight doubles and four home runs. She will play for the University of Houston next season.
SOFTBALL PLAYER: Sloane Stewartson, Rock Canyon, sophomore
Stewartson led the Continental League with .632 batting average, eight home runs, 1.140 slugging percentage and .690 on base percent- Stewartson age. She was second in the league with 32 runs batted in. She also had a 1.000 fielding percentage as a catcher. It was the second straight season to win the league batting title.
BOYS CROSS COUNTRY: Ben Butler, SkyView Academy, junior Bendalin
Dale
TENNIS: Jacob Bendalin, sophomore and Wyatt Dale, sophomore, Cherry Creek doubles teammates
The tandem went on to win the Class 5A title at No. 1 doubles. The two teamed up to win at No. 4 doubles in 2013.
SOFTBALL PITCHER: Savannah Heebner, Castle View, senior
The right-hander went 20-4 with a 0.77 earned run average. She had eight shutouts including two perfect games. She struck out 263 batters in 164 innings pitched and held opposing batters
Butler won Class 3A state championship with a time of 16:18.2. He was also the regional, league and Arvada West Invitational Butler champion. The only race he didn’t win was a big school Lyons race in September in which he ran fourth.

ery meet this season. As a sophomore she figured out how to compete in races and split time with her club soccer team.
SOCCER: Brian Olcott, Rock Canyon, senior Olcott was the Continental League Player of the Year for the league champion Jaguars. He led the league in scoring and goals with 49 points and 22 Olcott goals.

Bruins best East at Pepsi Center Cherry Creek continues strong start early in season By Tom Munds
tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia. com High school teams don’t always get a chance to play in a big arena on a professional court. The Cherry Creek Boys Basketball team did and made it count Dec. 10 with a 61-54 win over Denver East at the Pepsi Center. “This was a fun game. It was awesome playing here at the Pepsi Center,” Bruins 6-foot-6 junior Hayden Parr said after the game. “Obviously Denver East is a very good team, but we played hard and got the win.” He said the aggressive Angel defense game his team a little trouble. “They played great defense and we were a little timid early,” the junior said. “But once we got into it, we focused on playing our game.” Cherry Creek coach Mike Brookhart liked his team’s performance against East. “I am pleased with the way our guys are working hard and playing hard,” he said. “We turned the ball over a little more than we should have today, but otherwise we played pretty well.” Creek and East put on an entertaining game with up-tempo styles and aggressive defense. The aggressive defense at both ends of the court made good looks at the basket hard to come by and easy shots almost non-existent.
Blake Goldsberry drives for a reverse layup to score points for Cherry Creek during the Dec. 10 non-league basketball game against Denver East at the Pepsi Center. The basket helped the Bruins take the lead in the second quarter as they went on to win the game, 61-54. The Bruins got an early lead, but the Angels battled back and took their first lead of the game at 13-12 on a 3-pointer with less than a minute left in the first quarter. The score was tied at 16 halfway through the second period and then later at 20. The Bruins hit three successive shots in the closing minute and took a 26-23 lead into halftime. The Bruins led 40-34 going into the final quarter. They hit most of their foul shots down the stretch and won the game, 61-54. Denver East’s aggressive defensive style gave the Bruins some trouble, causing
Cherry Creek’s Nick Long (12) draws a lot of Denver East defenders as he drives along the baseline during the non-league boys basketball game played at the Pepsi Center. Both teams played aggressive defense, but timely scoring by the Bruins enabled them to win the game, 61-54. Photos by Tom Munds some turnovers in the first half, Brookhart said. “We have four guys who saw significant varsity team last season, and we have a number of young kids who are playing well for us,” he said. “We have height and speed so we can play an inside-out style. By that I mean we can hit the outside shots, and that usually opens up lanes to drive to the basket. Defensively, we play zone a bit, but primarily we play an aggressive man-to-
man style.” The scoring was spread around for the Bruins with 10 players scoring points. Parr was the leading scorer with his 15 points, and Will Halfon scored 12. Meanwhile, Parr’s best move against East was trying to drive to the lane as often as possible, he said. Bruins continues on Page 20

“Basketball is the only sport I play,” he said. “As far as personal goals, my focus is doing all I can to help us win as many games as possible this season.” Notes: The Bruins, 4-0 after the win over Denver East, close out the 2014 portion of the schedule by hosting the eight-team Cherry Creek Holiday Classic Tournament. Action began with four games Dec. 18. The first-round matchups were Thomas Jefferson vs. Fountain Fort Carson, Legend vs. Fruita-Monument, Highlands Ranch vs. Lincoln and Pine Creek vs. Cherry Creek. Play continues Dec. 19 with the first-round losers playing at 3 p.m. and 4:30 and the first round winners playing at 6 and 7:30. The final round is scheduled Dec. 20 with games at 11a.m., 12:30 and 2 p.m. with the championship game scheduled at 3:30. The gym goes dark after the Dec. 20 game for the school’s holiday break. The Bruins return to the court for a road game at Rangeview Jan. 3 and the next home game will be Jan. 7 against Cherokee Trail.

There is an ‘I’ in ‘i-team’
Bloomberg Philanthropies selected Centennial to participate in its Innovation Teams program. “I-teams” are designed to help cities improve citizens’ lives by relying on data, open innovation, and strong management to address pressing urban challenges. Centennial will receive up to $1.5 million over three years to create an i-team that will initially focus on improving mobility across all modes of transportation. It will focus on improving traffic flow, reducing traffic congestion and related costs, improving pedestrian and bicycle safety and more.
City recognized for financial reporting
The City of Centennial has been awarded the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting by the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada. The city was recognized for its 2013 comprehensive annual financial report. The award is the highest form of recognition in the area of governmental accounting. The CAFR is judged by an impartial panel on whether it demonstrates a constructive “spirit of full disclosure” to clearly communicate its financial story and motivate potential users and user groups to read the document.

White House Business Council and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The trip was also significant because the local participants had opportunities to network with each other, said Wasden, a Highlands Ranch resident. “All the lunches and dinners are my favorite part,” said Katia de Orbegoso, president of the Roxborough Business Association. “The unstructured environment was the perfect time to get to know each other, share ideas and comment on the different briefings.” And there was some time for fun, Wasden said. The group went bowling at the Harry S. Truman Bowling Alley, and they enjoyed an evening monument tour. Being able to tour the monuments in the evening, away from the rest of the tourists and people tending to business matters at the capital, provides a person with a different feel of their significances, Wasden said. “It becomes more reverent and reflective,” he said. “You can reflect in solitude on some of the great leaders.” One highlight of the trip was a meeting with U.S. Sen.

protesters demonstrating their disagreement. A Senate vote was occurring that day, and Schlatter said, “We were there at the moment of truth.” “It went from a five-minute meeting to a 40-minute intimate conversation with him,” Wasden said. “That really provided some of the wow-factor to the trip.” In addition to their time with Bennet, the group was able to meet with Congressmen Ken Buck of Colorado and Ted Yoho of Florida, and Ali Noorani, executive director of the National Immigration Forum. “We got to engage with people in D.C. and meet the people that make a difference,” said Englewood-based Steve Roper, president and CEO of Roper Insurance. “Get our voice heard on a national level.” Overall, the trip was “a great opportunity to learn first-hand about what’s going on in Washington,” said Natalie Harden, director of public policy and economic development for the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce. “And we were demonstrating that we care enough to be willing to physically meet with them,” she added. “They appreciate us making that effort.” It’s important for people to be engaged, Roper said. The people in Washington are also “normal people trying to do the best job they can,” and getting involved can make a difference, he added, because they do listen. “It’s hard to say if we did move the needle at all,” Roper said, “but we hope that it does.”
