out of Canon City that will bring a zip-line course to the new park. Council voted 5-0 on July 22 to approve the 10-year agreement. The lease ensures that 5 percent of the total gross revenue collected will go to Castle Rock. The town estimates the revenue will be about $45,000 annually. Royal Gorge Zip Lines will cover all costs of design, construction, fees, permits and business operations for the zip lines and aerial trekking, including staffing, insurance, and
inspections. Monthly financial reports will be submitted to the town. “What we were looking for was a familyfriendly recreational opportunity that was financially solid and did not require any funding from the town except for the use of the land itself,” said Town of Castle Rock Parks and Recreation Director Rob Hannah. According to Hannah, research done by the town found that the demographics, Zip Line continues on Page 13

Promenade plans begin to take shape Tenants still unknown, small shop announcements expected soon By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinado @coloradocommunitymedia.com Builders and architects from Alberta Development, as well as representatives from the Town of Castle Rock, met with residents July 31 at the Philip S. Miller Library to answer questions about the proposed new commercial and residential development that will be known as The Promenade at Castle Rock. The project — approved pending final land purchases — is planned for the north end of Castle Rock, between Interstate 25 and U.S. Highway 85. The development is projected to span 200 acres with the potential space for 900,000 square-feet of commercial space and 350 multi-family homes. “It’s probably similar to Cornerstar that they developed out in Aurora. That’s probably the closest version of it,” said Christopher Kenyon of Alberta Development Partners, the group who plans to build The Promenade. “The major goal is to create an integrated design that fits within the community, that fits within the neighborhood and becomes a supportive function of all of those areas.” The proposed project would be the largest ever master-planned commercial development in Castle Rock. “We’ve heard nothing but good feedback. Everybody wants to know timing and how quickly things are going to start to happen. And everyone wants to know who the big tenants are going to be,” Kenyon said. “We don’t know yet. Some of the smaller
shop stuff I would expect to happen pretty quick, but the bigger box stores may take a little while to finish those negotiations. Probably in the next few months you will hear some of those bigger names start to roll out.” While Kenyon said he has not received any negative feedback, some in Castle Rock have expressed concern over the project. The News-Press received multiple letters to the editor in early 2014 from residents who voiced concerns over increased traffic and congestion as well as the potential “destruction of the area’s smalltown charm.” Steve Craig, the managing partner of the Outlets at Castle Rock, expressed his own concerns to town council in November of 2013, stating that The Promenade would serve as a direct competitor to the Outlets, a location that currently has its share of vacancies. Alberta representatives told residents July 31 that they do not expect traffic — caused by construction — to be a major issue. “No more than any other development would have. We’ve got pretty good access to I-25, so we really won’t be using a lot of local roads,” said Lincoln Thomas of Alberta. The project required a financial agreement among the Town of Castle Rock, Alberta and the metro district to make it financially feasible. That agreement required two votes by the Castle Rock Town Council. The council members voted unanimously on Nov. 19 and Jan. 7 to approve the agreement. Alberta estimates the total cost of the project to be $180 million. Of that, Castle Rock will contribute up to $24.48 million, or 13.6 percent of the total project, in shared sales tax and development fee reimbursements.
Castle Rock to vote on open carry, charter amendment By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinado @coloradocommunitymedia.com Voters in Castle Rock this month have the chance to weigh in on two ballot questions that will help shape the future of the town’s gun laws. The first is a question relating to whether or not the town manager has the authority to ban open carry of firearms in town-owned and -run buildings, facilities and parks. Open carry is currently outlawed in those locations, in accordance with the town manager. If voters vote yes on ballot question A, the town manager will no longer have authority on the issue and Colorado state law will kick in, allowing for open carry on said property. A no vote leaves the power of whether open carry is allowed on townowned property with the town manager. The other question is a potential amendment to the Castle Rock charter that would require a town vote to alter gun laws in the future. Under the current ordinance, passed in 2003, the town manager has the power to make decisions on where the open carry of firearms is permitted or prohibited. In 2013, the town council revisited the issue, exploring whether it would be best to transfer the power to make the decision from the town manager to themselves. Then, after more research and discussion, council considered an ordinance that would repeal the restriction of open carry in town-owned and -run facilities altogether. That ordinance passed 4-3 on Jan. 28 on second reading.

MORE INFORMATION • Voting: Castle Rock residents can register up to and on the day of the special election, Aug. 19. If you do not register before Aug.12 you will not receive a ballot by mail and will need to go to either Castle Rock Town Hall or the Douglas County Elections Office to register. Completed ballots can be returned by mail or in person to Town Hall, 100 N. Wilcox St., Castle Rock, or in person to the Douglas County Elections Office, 125 Stephanie Place, Castle Rock. Both locations will accept ballots between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. daily, except on Aug. 19, when they will be open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. To see if you are registered to vote, go to govotecolorado.com • What is open carry? Open carry is when a gun owner openly carries a firearm in public. This is different than concealed carry, where a gun owner carries a weapon that is not visible to the public. Individuals who have a concealed-weapons permit have undergone a background check and have had firearms training. There are no training requirements for those who open carry, only that they be of legal age and own the weapon legally. Under the current town ordinance, the town manager has the power to make decisions on where the open carry of firearms is permitted or prohibited in town-owned and -run buildings and spaces, like parks. Private businesses can also choose on their own to ban open carry from the premises.

`Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can’ Stuff. Most of us have lots of it. Cristin Bleess and her husband, Adrian Horner, did. But by the time March 13 rolls around, the day they leave for Albania with the Peace Corps, their possessions will amount to this: • An antique pie cupboard refinished by Adrian’s mother and given to them as a wedding gift • A coffee table made from the window of Cristin’s grandparents’ Minnesota farmhouse • A cedar hope chest that belonged to Cristin’s aunt filled with items such as a childhood photo album and a few framed photographs • Two filing drawers of tax returns, Social Security information and other documents • Camping and backpacking gear • A couple of bicycles • Two suitcases each of clothing “It’s amazing how much stuff you have that really isn’t sentimental or even used or even appreciated,” Adrian said as he considered what they have let go. “The thrill of discovery is almost better than the thrill of having.” The journey to de-stuff began late last fall when Cristin, 41, a Spanish teacher, and Adrian, 38, a software tester, decided to change the course of their lives. “We just wanted a new adventure,” Cristin said. They contacted a Realtor with the intention of putting their three-bedroom home on the market in January, met with a financial adviser and, after exploring options, decided to apply to the Peace Corps, which requires a 27-month commitment. Meanwhile, they began deconstructing their belongings, much of it unique, original folk art collected from countries they’d visited in Latin America or antiques with personal connections or collections of one-time passions that reflected eras of their lives. “Our stuff wasn’t stuff you can buy at Pier 1 or Target,” Cristin said. “It’s stuff we had both collected through travels or through family or through interests. We
thought about it a lot.” They checked into storage costs — $200 a month. Too expensive. They considered disposing of some, keeping some. But the storage cost issue remained, and family didn’t have enough space to offer. Then Cristin saw this Facebook post: “Collect memories, not things.” And that was it. She said to Adrian: “Let’s just get rid of it all.” They began in the basement, with holiday decorations and unopened boxes that had followed Adrian and Cristin from place to place. High school yearbooks. Adrian’s ACT scores. The 1,500 to 2,000 comic books of “Fantastic Four,” “Avengers,” “X-Men” and others that Adrian had collected in elementary and middle school. The military memorabilia collection that started with Adrian’s grandfather’s WWII medals and included a Civil War bayonet and a WWI helmet. Cristin’s beloved sticker collection, which she began in fifth grade and continued for several years, building it into what she called the best collection, even organized by categories such as teddy bears, unicorns and hearts. It all easily sold through postings on social media garage-sale sites or consignment to niche stores. “I took my grandfather’s insignia out and sold all of it,” Adrian, a college history major, said of the military collection. “It went from a big box to a couple of medals.” Cristin became Facebook friends with the woman who bought her sticker collection, one of the possessions to which she was most attached.
“It’s probably the first thing I ever was passionate about and that I did on my own,” she said. “I spent my own money on it and took care of it and was invested in it. Like I said, it was the best collection.” Next came the kitchen. Dishes. Pans. The box of cake-making utensils given to Cristin by her mom, a baker of wedding cakes. Books — avid readers, they donated boxes of books to the local library. Clothing. For staging purposes, closets should look empty to help sell the house, Adrian said. So “we got ruthless with our clothing.” “You have so many clothes you never wear,” Cristin added. “As a dual-income, no-kids couple, you just accumulate stuff and you don’t always think before you buy it…” They took three to four lawn-size trash bags of clothing to five different consignment stores from Castle Rock to Boulder, the rest to Goodwill. On Jan. 1, they listed their home and moved in with Adrian’s mother. They also moved some furniture to her basement and all the folk art. Adrian’s mother took the two-and-ahalf-foot tall, colorful, ceramic church, a thrill-of-discovery find by renowned Mexican potter Candelario Medrano chanced upon on the floor of a Santa Fe gallery, and a metal red heart that “spoke” to Cristin in San Miguel de Allende in Mexico. Except for four other pieces, they delivered all to a consignment store near Tucson. The ones they held back include a smaller Medrano church, and a fruit bowl and clay figurines of a couple on a park bench made by the Mexican artist Josefina Aguilar, whom Cristin met on the same trip during which she met Adrian. “I wanted to take them with the other stuff to Arizona,” Cristin said, “but Adrian wanted to think about it more.” “I probably fought harder on keeping things in the folk art collection,” Adrian said. “I have a lot of fond memories of the things we’d done together, and the stuff in the house reminded me of that.
I recognized the fact I couldn’t just go to Walmart and buy them again.” Travel has played a meaningful role in their lives and relationship. A high school trip to Mexico ignited Cristin’s passion for Spanish, which became her career. An acclaimed teacher, she taught the language for 18 years until the school year ended in May. She was traveling throughout Mexico in July 2003 when she met Adrian at a hostel in Oaxaca. He was three months into an 18-month bike trip he started in California and ended in Argentina. Until his return to the Denver area, they communicated through emails. Then, they visited between Denver and Minneapolis, where Cristin was teaching at the time, until she moved here in 2005. They married two years later and have journeyed together through 13 states and four countries. The anticipation is building for Albania, which is unlike any place they’ve been. “It’s that thrill, the excitement,” Adrian said. “I think that’s why we both love to travel — we don’t know what we’re going to get.” When the house sold in March, they moved most of the furniture to the basement of Adrian’s mother’s home and put it on Craigslist. Eventually, it all went. The red couch with the two chairs, one green, one a patchwork of colors, and a geometric-design rug. The queen bed, full bed and twin bed. The dining room table and chairs. Bookshelves. The antique wardrobe and dresser. Lamps. Patio furniture. The antique washstand. Cristin delivered the dresser her uncle made in his high school shop class to her second cousin in Loveland. Adrian also sold the ‘93 black Geotracker he had started driving his junior year in high school. The final piece of furniture, a TV cabinet, sold three weeks ago. “I felt like a weight was being lifted every time something went out the door,” Cristin said. “I felt lighter. … It was not even about the money.

Third-party candidate works to sway voters Williams challenges for HD-44 By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com Lily Tang Williams has some very personal reasons for running as a Libertarian in her election bid for state House District 44. Williams, a Chinese immigrant who moved to the U.S. in 1988 for graduate studies, said she hopes to bring change to the House seat, which has long been held by Republicans. It is currently occupied by Chris Holbert, who is termlimited and is now running for Senate District 30. For the first 23 years of her Williams life, Williams said, she and her family were oppressed by the regime of Mao Zedong, the longtime chairman of China’s Communist Party. This upbringing had a profound influence on her decision to enter the political realm. “We were very poor and, of course, we were very brainwashed,” said Williams, who was raised in the mountainous Sichuan province, which she calls the “wild west” of China. Williams, of Parker, says the level of government corruption and fear-inducing oversight she witnessed during her youth was a motivating factor in making sure the same does not happen to her adoptive home country. Her mother and father did not receive a proper education, but they made sure that
their daughter exercised her intelligence and had opportunities. Williams studied hard and graduated from a top-five law school in China before pursuing her master’s degree. She has since worked in corporate law, telecommunications and real estate, but wants her next career to have an impact on the future. In a wide-ranging interview July 24 that covered topics from Second Amendment rights to the legalization of marijuana (she’s for both), Williams said she believes America’s two major parties have run the country into the ground via “crony capitalism.” Having been a member of both parties, Williams said she saw enough to drive her to become a Libertarian, although she knows it’s an uphill battle in a historically conservative district. “I have been fighting for liberty all my life,” said Williams, who supports personal freedoms and smart deregulation. “Winning or not, I’m going to vote for my principles.” Of the 223,000 registered voters in Douglas County, nearly one-third identify as independent or “other,” according to the county elections office. It’s those people Williams is hoping to convince. She is appearing at public meetings, including those held by groups with different political affiliations, and is open to speaking engagements throughout House District 44, which covers Parker and Lone Tree. “Some people are still conflicted and some are totally party-line people. It’s sad, but it’s a reality,” she said. “My goal is long-term, so people who can’t support me today, I won’t push them.” For more information, go to www.lily4liberty.com or her Facebook page.

Fracking ballot initiatives dropped Hickenlooper and Polis reach 11th hour deal By Vic Vela
vvela@colorado communitymedia.com Voters will not be weighing in on hydraulic fracturing this November. Gov. John Hickenlooper and U.S. Rep. Jared Polis announced an 11th hour deal on Aug. 4 to create a special task force to address issues surrounding fracking — the very day that signatures to put fracking on the November ballot were due at the Secretary of State’s Office. The task force is part of a deal that the two Democrats reached in the days leading up to the announcement that will also end efforts by Polis to place two antifracking ballot initiatives on the November ballot. Later in the day, pro-fracking groups said they too will drop their own ballot initiative efforts, suddenly ending what was gearing up to be a ballot box fight that was expected to be costly — both in terms of campaign advertising dollars and potentially in political price for other candidates seeking office this fall. The Polis-backed initiatives sought to increase setback requirements for wells and would have also given communities greater control over oil and gas drilling operations. Pro-fracking groups had
sought initiatives that could have had economic impacts on communities that ban fracking — the process by which water and chemicals are blasted into the ground to free up trapped oil and gas underneath. Also as part of the agreement, Hickenlooper said the state would work to end a lawsuit against Longmont over new oil and gas regulations the city adopted in 2012. But the big news is the agreement to pull the ballot measures. Hickenlooper and the oil and gas industry had opposed Polis’ efforts, concerned that the initiatives would be akin to a fracking ban in a state that relies on drilling to feed the economy. And Democrats were also concerned that an expensive fracking battle would hurt candidates this November, especially Sen. Mark Udall, who is locked in a tight re-election campaign against U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner. But those fears for Democrats now appear to be over after Polis announced he is backing off of his efforts to continue to pursue the initiatives, measures that he had been helping to finance. Polis said during a hastily-called Capitol press conference that he considers the creation of a task force to be “a victory for the people of Colorado.” “For the first time, with the (oil and gas) commission that the governor mentioned, citizens will be on equal footing with the oil and gas industry and will be able to directly negotiate to protect their
property rights, home values, and air quality,” Polis said. The 18-member task force would be charged with helping to “minimize land use conflicts that can occur when siting oil and gas facilities near homes, schools, businesses and recreational areas,” according to the governor’s office. The task force will be made up of a diverse group of members from across all business fields. Members will include representatives from the industries of oil and gas, conservation, agriculture, homebuilders as well as local governments and civic leaders. The task force will make recommendations on fracking issues to the Legislature. Although the agreement had been announced by the governor and Polis, it was still unclear at the time of the daytime press event whether pro-fracking groups would agree to drop their own measures. That question was answered late that same evening by Rep. Frank McNulty, R-Highlands Ranch, who was behind an initiative that would have prohibited communities that ban fracking from collecting revenues that are a part of oil and gas revenue allocation. McNulty said through a press statement that he would suspend his efforts, calling the decision by Polis to drop his initiatives “an exciting turn of events.” Another pro-fracking initiative, which would have dealt with financial disclosure issues of future ballot
measures that deal with energy development, was also dropped. Hickenlooper had cautioned for months that the ballot initiatives could have “draconian” results on an industry that generates jobs and contributes billions of dollars to the Colorado economy. For months, the governor held out hope of calling a special session to address local control issues surrounding fracking, only to call off those efforts last month after a compromise had failed to materialize. The task force changes everything. “The (task force) will provide an alternative to ballot initiatives that, if successful, would have regulated the oil and gas industry through the rigidity of constitutional amendments and would have imposed a significant threat to Colorado’s economy,” Hickenlooper said. As for the Longmont litigation, Hickenlooper said he would call on the Colorado Oil and Gas Commission to drop its lawsuit against the city. The city had created its own set of fracking rules, including a requirement that wells be placed at least 750 feet from an occupied dwelling. The suit had marked the first time the state had sued a city over its own oil and gas rules.
Fracking politics play out The politics of fracking played out almost immediately after the press conference ended. Former Congressman Bob

ADATTO Custom Menswear Launch Party On Wednesday, July 23, Adatto Custom Menswear hosted a launch party with the South Metro Denver Chamber. Several hundred people attended the event. The company greeted attendees with small plates and specialty cocktails from the event’s host location Session Kitchen, and a specially constructed “Swag Bag” for all
attendees provided by Modern Gladiator Magazine. Several drawings for customs shirts and suits were also held, and free fittings were available. Adatto employees modeled the company’s various custom menswear offerings. “Awesome launch, excellent products and employees,” said Todd McIntyre, owner of National ComTel and South Metro Denver Chamber member.

Adatto is custom menswear company that sells custom suits with a focus on reflecting each customer’s personal style. The company feels that “The right suit makes every man feel confident, attractive, and successful. And the right suit is a custom suit — tailored to fit and designed with the individual in mind.” Clients can choose the fit and fabric of each suit, blazer, pant or shirt, in order to reflect their personality.
Beauprez, who is running against Hickenlooper this fall, blasted the “backroom deal” reached by the governor and Polis as having left “many unanswered questions.” Colorado Republican Chairman Ryan Call was also critical of the announcement. “Literally, the only thing that we know for certain after today’s press conference is that Gov. Hickenlooper, Jared Polis and Colorado Democrats want even more control over Colorado’s already heavily regulated energy industry,” Call said through an emailed statement. As for Udall, he had been in a tough spot on the issue, considering a large number of environmentalists — a key Udall constituency — had been behind Polis’ efforts. The senator issued a statement in favor of the agreement. “This deal — which averts a divisive and counterproductive ballot fight over one-size-fits-all restrictions — is welcome news and underscores how all of Colorado benefits when we find common ground,” Udall said. Polis, whose district includes some cities that have voted to ban fracking, told reporters that he had never been pressured by fellow Democrats worried about the political ramifications to halt his efforts. “Obviously,” he said, “this will be disappointing to some of my constituents, Republican and Democratic, but I would point out to them that there’s been progress made.”
Adatto trained Style Consultants work with clients by providing appointments at the client’s home or office to take necessary measurements, provide samples, and ultimately oversee the design of each 100% custom, handcrafted suit, shirt, pant, or jacket.

School bells ring for most Aug. 11 Douglas County cites new features for academic year By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Alissa Oster and her mother are excited about the Aug. 11 start of school, but for very different reasons. “I can get back into the routine I like,” said mom Suzanne Keilt, mother of four Douglas County School District students. “Summer can get kind of chaotic.” “I’m really excited because I get to see one of my friends, and I’m going to be a junior so I’ll be an upperclassmen,” said 16-year-old Oster, who attends Highlands Ranch High School. Oster is enthused about an interior design class she plans to take, apprehensive about math, and intrigued by chemistry. “I heard chemistry was fun,” she said. “But I’m getting a lot of the new teachers next year. That’s one thing I’m not real excited for. So I’m on and off about it.” Most Douglas County students return to school Aug. 11, though some charter schools and other schools have different starting dates. Check your school’s website or www. dcsdk12.org for calendars and other information. We asked the Douglas County School District what’s new for the 2014-15 academic year. Here is the district’s response: • DCSD Strategic Plan: The new 2014-17 DCSD Strategic Plan features four priorities: Safety, Choice, World Class Education and System Performance. We have long said that safety is our number one priority. With the
new Strategic Plan, we move safety forward as our first priority. • SchoolMessenger: Launched in the spring of 2014, SchoolMessenger is a reliable and robust messaging system used for emergency communication with parents and staff. • Professional Development module for InspirED Innovation: This new module will support a focus on alignment, sustainability and continuous quality improvement. The PD module will help staff find the courses that best align to learning needs — such as an individual teacher searching for a course aligned to their professional growth plan and their CITE evaluation, a principal looking for courses tied to school data, a classified staff member seeking to enhance their skills, or The Center for Professional Development using the information as a needs assessment. In turn, this data will be used to show growth in individual and system skills and performance. • DCSD Mobile App: Stay tuned for the new and improved version of the DCSD mobile app. It will be available for free on iTunes and GooglePlay. • DCSD Parent University: Parent University will educate, empower and connect families with community resources needed to provide confidence, character development and life skills. A parent advisory group and district leaders have collaborated to create a robust list of courses and seminars. DCSD Parent University registration will open on Sept. 9. • DCSD Parent Liaison: In May 2014, DCSD added the Office of Parent Liaison to connect parents with district resources and leaders. The DCSD Parent Liaison will work closely with school accountability committees, maintain a social media presence and
serve as a liaison. • DCSD Choice Fairs: DCSD will host three Choice Fairs to showcase schools and district programs. This is an opportunity for parents and students to learn more about what makes each school unique and choose a school that best fits their needs. • Castle View High School: The Mosaic Collective is a pilot program being implemented this year for a group of ninth- and 10th-graders. The new program will address the personalized learning needs of each student in a transformational learning environment. Teachers will collaborate with each student to develop curriculum aligned with that particular student’s passion and interest. At the same time, the teacher will also ensure the individual student learns critical standards and skills. “I’m convinced this is going to be our best year ever,” reads an emailed statement attributed to Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen. “Our work continued this summer and we are ready to welcome students back into the classroom. The energy and excitement from our students and staff is contagious.” “We can’t imagine spending our best years anywhere but home.”

Life is a conveyor belt toward final checkout Pat Bowlen has Alzheimer’s. There is no known cure. It is very difficult to watch a life in descent. By now, most of us have probably been through it — or we are going through it right now. My dear friend Ruth, 96, thought we were married. My aunt thought I was my cousin Linn. I left Michigan on a Tuesday, I was in Highlands Ranch on Wednesday, and I was back in Michigan on Thursday. My mother didn’t know I had left, and I was staying with her. My father couldn’t eat, drink, walk or talk. It was nearly impossible for my sister and me to watch. He was in the hospital for the final eight months of his life. It was unfair. Our mother was in her kitchen one day, in a hospice the next, and gone a few days after that, but our father took his time. I guess it has been known for some time that Bowlen was experiencing short-term memory loss and other signs of Alzheimer’s, but most of us didn’t find out until July 23. The story dominated the Post, to the extent that there was no editorial page. Amy Van Dyken was told to say her good-byes. After her recent ATV accident in Show Low, Ariz., she was told to say good-bye to her husband. She said goodbye, but she wasn’t going anywhere. It is one of the best stories of 2014. There have been a lot of lousy stories this year, but when I get down on them, I
check in on Amy. She is going to compete in a 26.2-mile marathon in her purple wheelchair with her brother by her side. I am certain that Amy will be more active than I am, even though she is paralyzed from the waist down, and I am fully ambulatory. It’s likely that years of athletic discipline prevented the accident’s outcome from being worse than it was. Respecting life means something to me. And respecting death does too. They don’t seem to care in some parts of the world. In my least favorite part of the world, the Middle East, you get a number, not a name. It doesn’t seem to matter if you are a mother or a father or a child. It doesn’t seem to matter if you are praying at the time, reading a good book or learning how to play the violin. There will be a bomb. And the total that day will be on the news. The number of innocents who were killed. There are never any names. But here we name every single one.
I read the obituaries. I don’t know any of them, but I want to find out whatever I can. I wrote my father’s obituary, knowing that nobody knew him. I thought maybe there was someone like me who would read it with an oblique interest, and realize that he was a good man. I am 66 and some of my friends have died, and some of their mothers and fathers have died. That’s what happens when you get older. Death is no longer somewhere way out there. It’s in the next email. It’s in the next phone call. My mother and father died within three months of each other. There is an almost unexplainable emptiness that goes along with the deaths of both a mother and a father. Now what? My sister and I carry the family history. I carry most of it in my memory. I have a few photographs and a few videos, and that’s all. There is no presence. Death starts knocking when we are young. It may be a pet. I saw a dried-up lizard when I was 5 or 6, and didn’t understand what I was looking at. I do now. Leonardo da Vinci said, “While I thought that I was learning how to live, I have been learning how to die.” Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR More than one `right’ answer
The slogan “red, right and blue” has everything to do with the reason our government can’t get anything done. The implication is that there is only one “right” answer, opinion or way to be. What happened to the diversity that founded this nation? What rights are being protected by the proponents of this position? They claim they stand behind the rights this country was founded on — the right to have our own opinions and to celebrate our differences — but those are the exact rights they seem to be trying to squelch. It is this expectation that there is only one “right” way that keeps our government from getting anything done. It cannot govern without the foundational skill of negotiation. It is, after all, intended (and invented) to be a government by the people for the people. We (the people) are not a homogenous, single-minded unit. We are, thankfully, diverse. Thus the need (and brilliance) of checks and balances built into our government process. If they think they can avoid negotiating, they are dreaming. And it’s a nightmare. Bev Johnson Castle Rock
Town and council mishandling election
The Castle Rock town government’s handling of the upcoming special election on the open carry of firearms has been irresponsible and it leaves many town residents ill prepared on how to vote Aug. 19. A substantive referendum such as this should be preceded by the mailing of materials explaining the questions to be decided. In the July 31 News-Press story, “Town won’t send educational material for election,” Town Manager Mark Stevens reportedly claims that the tight election timetable precluded the preparation, vetting and mailing of such information. If this was the case, then why did the town choose the Aug. 19 date in the first place? Why the rush? Why not give town officials adequate preparation time by holding the election later in the year, possibly in conjunction with the Nov. 4 general election? Councilmember George Teal dismisses the need for an educational mailing by noting that the election was called by the town council in response to a petition drive. His claim that “If that was a valid petition, there was a public education process as part of that drive,” is utter nonsense. It is the responsibility of the town council, not citizen petitioners, to ensure that voters are able to make informed choices on Aug. 19.
The council’s irresponsible handling of this election invariably invites speculation as to councilmembers’ motives in this affair. Rick Young Castle Rock
Harmonious diversity through voice
Last weekend, as I savored the moving voices of a fine choir, I wondered: Why does any song performed by joined chordal voices — even a skilled barbershop quartet —thrill us so deeply? I always enjoy singing, and a jolly group sing-a-long ensures us all good fun. But mostly, we amateur vocalists sing the melody together or perhaps attempt only a few simple two-part chords. The rich, stirring sound of complex chords needs blended diverse but harmonious voices. Each voice, from soprano to bass, is essential. The one-size-fits-all unanimity of a sing-a-long, though fun for a short while, can never yield that lasting richness. Conversely, for a solo we can each go our own way, singing in a different key or a different rhythm, but a choir sings concordantly. Harmonious diversity requires respectful cooperation yet equally values all its components. That equality rewards for all. Peg Brady Centennial

Bill will help close ‘skills gap’ At a time when federal dollars are stretched thin, we need to shift to models that pay for outcomes, rather than paying for services that may or may not be working. This is the type of approach that can and should apply to a range of government services. It’s also the type of approach Republican Sen. Rob Portman and I took when crafting the recently passed Pay-for-Success Act — which works to make federal job training programs more effective and responsive to what employers want. When I meet with business owners from all across the state, from the Western Slope to the San Luis Valley, from large manufacturers to small information technology companies, there is one thing that they have in common: a challenge finding workers with skills that match their business needs. At Western Slope Industries in Grand Junction they stressed how difficult it was to find employees with the proper training. Diversified Machine Systems in
Colorado Springs is rapidly expanding with high customer demand, yet they are not able to hire qualified employees fast enough. In Loveland, Leed Fabrication’s need is so great, they had to build their own training facility. It’s not that there aren’t enough workers, it’s that they aren’t trained in the fields that are hiring. This problem, commonly referred to as the “skills gap,” is driving unemployment and stifling economic growth in Colorado and across the nation. A 2011 report found that 74 percent of manufacturers are experiencing work-
force shortages or skills deficiencies that are significantly hindering their ability to expand operations and improve productivity. They aren’t alone. Employers across the country — particularly in the information-technology sector and throughout other high-growth industries in this economy — are facing a lack of skilled workers, even as tens of thousands of Coloradans continue to look for work. The Pay-for-Success Act creates a new model for workforce development that helps address this problem and close the skills gap by improving federal job training programs. State and local workforce boards will now have the flexibility to enter into contracts with job-training providers who will be reimbursed for their services only if they deliver on agreed-upon outcomes. For instance, a Colorado job-training provider tasked with training a certain number of workers to fill high-need positions in a specific region or a rapidly
growing industry would not be paid if the jobs aren’t filled. The result is workforce development training that is more aligned to regional needs and employer demands. In Colorado, roughly 10 percent of core federal job-training funds, or $3.24 million, will be available for workforce boards to steer toward these innovative types of “Pay-for Success” contracts. This will help state and local workforce boards better serve the roughly 9,000 Coloradans who use their services to gain new skills to get back to work. The Pay-for-Success Act is the type of model that promotes innovation by rewarding results and penalizing complacency. This common-sense reform ensures that job training programs are more responsive to the needs of employers and are preparing more workers for a 21st-century economy. Democrat Michael Bennet has represented Colorado in the U.S. Senate since 2009.
Turn to teamwork for better outcomes While I was facilitating a team meeting recently, the people in the room had an “aha” moment that will change the course and culture of the company and also accelerate their success. It wasn’t anything so profound, it was simply just a realization that they could accomplish more as a team than they ever could possibly do as individuals. Another one of those common-sense things that are not always common practice. This was a group of high-achieving and high-performing individuals. And since they were seen as the superstars of the company, they behaved in the same way. Egos were getting in the way of taking the team and the company to a higher level. I reminded them that even in the All Star games of professional sports, the players at the pinnacle of their game come together for one game

haven’t gotten rich — we’ve lost money. It just feels good — freeing.” Adrian agreed. “It feels like you have a lot of choices — you’re not weighted down by all the possessions.” They might have thought differently about the downsizing if they had children. But their belongings, they say, don’t hold the same sentimental value to nieces and nephews.

Here’s the thing, sometimes some of us worry so much about perception that we are afraid to engage others for the fear of feeling like we are not smart enough or strong enough to handle the situation or opportunity on our own. So in the face of feeling embarrassed, we go it alone. If we would only learn to lean on our families, friends, and/or other people we already know or could be introduced to, we can truly accelerate our successes in life.

Vote for lawsuit spurs another partisan split GOP claim against Obama has Democrats shaking heads By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Colorado congressional Republicans insist that last week’s vote to sue President Obama was a necessary response to “overreach” on the part of his administration. But their Democratic counterparts slammed Republicans for taking time just before leaving Washington for the summer recess to hold a purely partisan vote to sue the president rather than address issues that actually matter to Americans. “What they’re doing certainly doesn’t do anything to help the middle class of America,” said Democratic Rep. Ed Perlmutter. The Republican-led House voted 225201 to approve a resolution to authorize House Speaker John Boehner to sue Obama on claims that the president has abused his power and has ignored the Constitution. No Democrats voted for the lawsuit and five Republicans also voted no. Republicans claim that Obama has overreached on a number of areas where
he has taken executive action. But the lawsuit focuses specifically on the president’s decision to delay key provisions of the Affordable Care Act. Republicans are unhappy that the president did not consult with Congress prior to taking action to delay the requirement that businesses provide health coverage to their employees. Democrats find it funny that the lawsuit focuses on a provision delay of Obamacare — a health care law that Republicans didn’t want to see implemented to begin with. Republican Rep. Cory Gardner said he voted for the lawsuit because “we have an obligation to uphold the Constitution and the Constitution requires a separation of powers.” “The president has stepped across this line and has engaged in unilateral lawmaking,” Gardner said. “He’s weakened the legislative branch and strengthened the executive branch at the expense of the legislative branch.” Republican Rep. Mike Coffman said that if Democrats valued the preservation of constitutional separation of powers, they should have joined Republicans in voting for the lawsuit. “It absolutely should have been bipartisan because I think that anybody serving the Congress ought to be concerned about executive overreach, whether it’s a

Republican in the White House or a Democrat in the White House,” Coffman said. “I think that we are co-equal branches of government and anybody serving in the Congress ought to be interested in preserving the power of the institution.” But the public doesn’t seem to agree. Although Obama’s approval ratings continue to be anemic, results from a recent CNN/ORC International poll show that respondents oppose the lawsuit by a 5741 percent ratio. Coffman said he doesn’t concern himself with the possibility that voters might respond adversely to Republican efforts to sue the president. “I only focus on what I’m doing,” he said. “I don’t focus on the Republican Party. I don’t focus on Washington, D.C. I focus on what the voters in the district focus on.” But Perlmutter said if that’s the case, then why aren’t Republicans focusing on passing legislation that matters to the public? “That’s what they’re spending their time on,” Perlmutter said of the lawsuit. “Instead of getting things done for Americans across the country, they’re suing the president and they can’t get done immigration reform, infrastructure, education, retirement security ... stuff that’s important that doesn’t get done.”

Missing teen found; man facing charges Oklahoma resident could get life in prison By Christy Steadman
csteadman @coloradocommunitymedia.com An Oklahoma City man could face life in prison if convicted on a charge of taking a 13-year-old Douglas County girl to Oklahoma with the intention of engaging in illicit sexual conduct with her. Mark Sumpter, 43, was arrested July 17 in Oklahoma City on the charge of transportation of a minor with intent to engage
in criminal sexual activity, according to a news release issued by the U.S. Department of Justice. Sumpter’s case is being heard in federal court in Oklahoma City. According to court documents, the Oklahoma City police notified the FBI “that they had recovered an endangered 13-year-old runSumpter away girl” on June 27 from an apartment in the city. The documents state that the parents of the 13-year-old girl filed a missing persons report with the Douglas County Sheriff’s
Office on June 21. The DCSO reportedly conducted an investigation of the girl’s social media accounts, which led law enforcement to the Oklahoma City apartment by obtaining Internet subscriber information for the IP address. According to the documents, Sumpter and the girl first had contact with each other in November 2013, and “developed an online relationship … that turned sexual” via the Internet-based messaging, video and chat sites of Kik, chathour.com and Skype. Sumpter allegedly told his roommate that the girl was his daughter, and convinced him to drive him to Colorado to pick
her up, according to court documents. The men reportedly picked her up at a location within walking distance of her home, “drove immediately back to Oklahoma” and stayed at the Oklahoma City apartment from June 21 through June 27. Sumpter is being held without bond. He appeared before a U.S. magistrate in Oklahoma City on July 18 for preliminary proceedings. A spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney’s Office, West District in Oklahoma, stated that Sumpter will next appear after the prosecution presents an indictment to a federal grand jury. Sumpter may accrue additional charges, the spokesperson said.

Open Carry Continued from Page 1
allowing the open carry of firearms in town facilities came up, some in Castle Rock began to speak out against it. The repeal was set to go into effect Feb.28, but a collection of 2,657 signatures on a referendum presented to town council Feb.26 forced a delay. As a result of the referendum, on April 14, the council voted to hold a special election on the issue. The town’s estimated cost for the election, scheduled for Aug. 19, will be about $50,000. Ballot Question A specifically asks whether the town manager’s power to prohibit open carry on town property should be revoked. It is not a yes-no question on the right to open carry. A “yes” vote takes away the manager’s authority on the issue; a “no” vote keeps it. In addition to the open-carry question, council voted to add a charter amendment question to the ballot that would potentially require a town vote to change gun laws in the future. A “yes” vote on Ballot Question B means “the voters must approve future action by the Town Council restricting the right to keep and bear firearms.” A “no” vote means voter approval is not needed. The complete ballot language can be found at crgov.com/ specialelection. Castle Rock resident Ziggy Guentensberger and his neighbor Jacob Varnish were part of the group that started the referendum process aimed at allowing town residents to vote on the issue. “We were getting phone calls and emails from people who wanted to help out and get signatures,” Guentensberger said. “We realized this is something that the people want to make a decision on and want to be involved in. It quickly grew from there.” Some have asked why the vote on this issue couldn’t have been held in November. According to the town charter, the deadline for a special election is 120 days after the decision is made to hold the election. Possible dates considered were Aug. 12, 19 and 26. Guentensberger said the tight deadline to decide the issue could have been avoided. “(Council) could have rescinded (their decision) and tackled it this November,” he said. “They could have tackled it next November. They could have tackled it in an April election.” Castle Rock Mayor Paul Donahue said that while council could have rescinded the ordinance changing the law, the volume of support for action shown during the referendum process convinced council that the best thing to do was allow the people of the town to vote.
Timeline of events
“We could have done that, but we felt that it was important to follow through with the referendum and allow all of the people who signed the petition, along with the rest of Castle Rock, to decide,” Donahue said. Guentensberger said that for many, the opposition to the ordinance passed by council in January is not about the Second Amendment. The problem, in their view, was in the process. “Some people feel that it’s just not responsible to have guns,” he said. “Some people feel that open carry is a little bit too extreme for our town. I think we all have a view that open carry in some areas is not a responsible action. But if you boil it down, I think the process is what got us all enraged and all involved.”
June 4, 2013: Town council directed staff to evaluate repealing the town’s open-carry ordinance. Sept. 17, 2013: Town staff presented its research. Council directed the drafting of a new ordinance. Council stated the new ordinance should transition the authority for whether to prohibit or permit open carry to the town council from the town manager, and to clarify the restrictions. Dec. 3, 2013: The new ordinance was presented and discussed. Council voted to table the ordinance and directed staff to draft an ordinance that would completely repeal prohibitions on open carry within town code. Jan. 21, 2014: The ordinance to repeal open-carry prohibitions on town-owned property was approved 4-3. A special meeting was scheduled for Jan. 28, to consider the ordinance on second and final reading. Jan. 28, 2014: The ordinance to completely repeal open carry prohibitions on town-owned property was approved 4-3 on second reading. The ordinance was set to go into effect on Feb. 27. Feb. 26, 2014: A referendum with 2,657 signatures seeking to put the issue to a vote is submitted. The matter is delayed due to the petition. April 14, 2014: During a special meeting, town council voted to hold a special election on this, and possibly other, issues. May 6, 2014: Town council considered ballot language on open carry. An ordinance to set a special election date and formal ballot language would be up for town council consideration as well. May 20, 2014: Town council set the formal ballot question language and the election date of Aug. 19. Council discussed whether there would also be a charter question related to firearms on the ballot. Town council called a special meeting for May 22, to discuss publishing notice regarding a potential charter question on that same ballot. May 22, 2014: Town council directed staff to craft the proposed ordinance and publish notification of the first council reading, set for June 3. June 3, 2014: Town council passed first reading of an ordinance to place a charter question on the Aug. 19 specialelection ballot. June 17, 2014: Town council passed second and final reading of an ordinance to place a question on the Aug. 19 ballot, meaning both questions will appear on the ballot. July 28, 2014: Ballots are mailed to voters. Aug. 19, 2014: Special election will be held.
Case for open carry Many people who have spoken in favor of repealing the open-carry ban point to the need to protect the Second Amendment, and say that it is their constitutional right to openly carry a firearm. Others say that, in reality, very few, if any, people actually do openly carry guns, and that if it were permitted, it would do little to affect the day-to-day lives of most people living in Castle Rock. “Just because a citizen of Colorado does not exercise a constitutional right does not mean that politicians should have the ability to restrict that right,” Donahue said. Donahue said that while opponents want to frame the Aug.19 special election as simply being about the open carry of firearms, the election is actually about who the citizens of Castle Rock want to have the authority over their rights. “This isn’t about open carry. It’s all about who do the people of Castle Rock want to have the power to grant or prohibit their constitutional rights,” Donahue said. Donahue points out that even if the town votes “no” on Ballot Measure A, the question about open carry, the issue is not settled, and the power to decide would simply fall back into the hands of the town manager, Mark Stevens. “This is question about the future,” Donahue said. “Mark Stevens, our longtime town manager, has said that he could retire next year. What happens when a new town manager or a new council come in down the road? Who do we want making these decisions, council or the people of the town?” The mayor said that Ballot Measure B, which would require a town vote to change gun laws in the future, is an opportunity for the people of Castle Rock to ensure that their future is in their own hands. “I say let’s not put the power to make decisions about our constitutional rights on one individual or a small group of individuals. This is a chance to decide who has the power to make these decisions once and for all, and I think that it should be the people of the town,” he said.

WHAT ARE THE POSSIBLE OUTCOMES OF THE AUG. 19 SPECIAL ELECTION? • Ballot Question A specifically asks whether the town
manager’s power to prohibit open carry on town property should be revoked. It is not a yes-no question on the right to open carry. A “yes” vote takes away the manager’s authority on the issue; a “no” vote keeps it.
• A “yes” vote on Ballot Question B, to add a charter amend-
ment, means “the voters must approve future action by the Town Council restricting the right to keep and bear firearms.” A “no” vote means voter approval is not needed.
• A “no” vote on Measure A and a “no” vote on Measure B
would mean that things would stay exactly as they are. The town manager would retain the power to allow or prohibit open carry and the process to change the law would remain the same.
• A “no” vote on Measure A and a “yes” vote on Measure B
would mean that the power to determine open carry would remain with the town manager and that in order to change Castle Rock’s gun laws in the future, a town vote would be needed.

timing, location and visibility make Castle Rock an attractive location for a zip-line course. Hannah said zip-line courses are laid out very similar to golf courses. “You take off of a tower or tee box and zip down to another landing tower or green,” he said. A typical experience on the proposed course will take between three and three-and-a-half hours and includes nine different zip lines up to 1,000-feet long, reaching speeds of 50 miles per hour. In addition to the traditional course, there will also be Aerial Trekking Timber Park and Dual Race Lines. The Aerial Trekking Timber Park area will provide a familystyle challenge course. This is a self-paced tour designed for children between the ages of 6 and 15, but is also appropriate for adults. The Timber Park will have both easy and difficult routes. Time spent in the Aerial Park could last between 30 minutes and 2 hours. “The aerial trekking course is meant for children and families. It’s more of a self-paced type of thing where you move around the course by picking different routes,” Hannah said. Dual race lines are designed with competition as the goal. Two people take off at the same time and it’s a race to the end. It is designed and located so that a participant can race several times in a row. “If you’re playing soccer with the soccer team out at Philip S. Miller park and you want to come and compete on something and you don’t have three-and-a-half hours, you can do either one of these two in a reasonable amount of time.” The proposed rate plan shows a significant discount for Castle Rock residents. The non-resident cost for the zip-line course is anticipated to be $97.90 and the resident rate will be $64.90. A 10 percent activity fee will be included in the price of each ticket. “I’m pleased to see that not only is there a discount for residents of Castle Rock, but it seems to be a pretty nice one,” Castle Rock Mayor Paul Donahue said. It is still unknown when construction of the course will begin. Philip S. Miller Park is scheduled to open in late October or early November.

Teachers’ union membership drops Reasons behind decline depend on who’s talking By Jane Reuter jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Membership in Douglas County’s teachers’ union has dropped from about 70 percent of the district’s teachers in 2012 to around 50 percent, its president said. The 47-year collective bargaining agreement between the Douglas County School District and the Douglas County Federation expired after negotiations failed in 2012. School board member Doug Benevento said the decrease points to a failure of leadership, but union president Courtney Smith said it’s a combination of teacher attrition and district roadblocks. “Teachers are fleeing that union as quickly as they can,” Benevento said. “The union leadership is in it for the union leadership, and not for the rank and file.” Smith said many of the teachers who have recently left DCSD were union members who can’t continue their DCF affiliation outside Douglas County. “That’s new for us because for years and years and years, teachers in Douglas County stayed their entire careers,” she said. “They’re not fleeing the union. They’re fleeing the district. “Maybe the school board should worry less about my membership, and more about finding out why they lost 555 teachers.” Recently released figures from the Colorado Department of Education show 17.3 percent — or 555 — of DCSD’s teachers left their positions in 2013-14. The numbers are collected mid-year and do not reflect turnover after Dec. 1 of any academic year, or indistrict promotions or transfers. Of those 555 teachers, DCSD said 85 were transferred or promoted within the district. The CDE shows the district had 3,361 teachers in 2013-14.

In 2011-12, the year before the collective bargaining agreement expired, DCSD teacher turnover was 11.24 percent, according to CDE records. Benevento and school board president Kevin Larsen wrote in a July 21 letter to Smith that the decrease in union membership shows, “it is clear that voters and teachers believe the leadership of the DCF is not in touch with the community.” They urged Smith to reengage the community and “disavow the past practice of attacks and untruths.” The letter was delivered to Smith the night before her July 25 address to a Highlands Ranch Republican breakfast group. The board members cited union involvement in school board elections, opposition to the pay-forperformance system introduced in 2012 and previous union leadership that “showed virtually no commitment to its members” among their ongoing concerns with the organization. The union recently challenged the validity of the district’s teacher pay system, but the Colorado Department of Education concluded it complied with state law. Smith said the DCF is working to rebuild its membership numbers with new teachers. But that’s a challenge because it no longer participates in new-teacher orientations and trainings. “We have to reach the new teachers on our own,” she said. Although DCSD has a Center for Professional Development, the teachers’ union will reintroduce professional development classes to its members. It also introduced a sliding scale on dues, offering a $31-per-month fee to teachers paid at the lowest end of DCSD’s market-based pay scale. The regular DCF monthly dues payment is $48.98. “We want as many of them to be able to afford membership as possible,” she said. The union “gives teachers and employees a collective voice, and a collective protection against the reforms and what’s happening in the school district.”

Ballot won’t have school question State funding plan portrayed as unfair by board members By Jane Reuter jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Douglas County School District staff proposed a way to fix the district’s aging buildings without raising taxes, but the school board recently decided not to put the question on November’s ballot. Board members unanimously adopted the resolution not to participate in the fall election, citing concerns with the state’s school funding formula, which they believe already puts an unfair burden on Douglas County taxpayers. But a member of DCSD’s fiscal oversight committee said other factors are at play. “I think there are bigger issues the board is facing they need to resolve,” Dave Usechek said. “There is no doubt in my mind there’s a need (for capital funding). But until there is positive support for the board, and no longer this bickering between parents and the board, I am not willing to support giving additional funds. Both sides need to resolve their differences and start working together for the best interests of kids.” The board’s July 15 resolution said the state’s funding formula sends a disproportionate share of Douglas County taxes to other Colorado school districts, leaving DCSD “consistently underfunded.” “The board is convinced that, because Douglas County taxpayers believe they are paying top-dollar for statewide education in the form of substantial income, sales, property and other taxes, they are simply unlikely to approve any local ballot measure that will further increase their tax burden,” the resolution reads. DCSD is among the lowest-funded districts in Colorado. If it received the average state per-pupil funding for 201415, it would boost its revenues by about $269 per student — a total of $17.2 million. At that rate, it would take 16 years to cover the $275 million in unmet capital
needs. Members of DCSD’s Long Range Planning Committee have for years warned the board about deteriorating conditions in many of its aging buildings. DCSD has $275 million in unfunded capital needs over the next five years, according to the committee, a number that grows by $35 million each year the needs are not addressed. DCSD chief financial officer Bonnie Betz recently proposed seeking voter approval to issue general obligation bonds without raising tax rates. Betz called the idea to leverage additional funds a “winwin.” Without such action, taxpayers eventually will see a decrease in their annual tax obligation to the schools. Voters passed a similar refinancing mechanism in the Littleton Public Schools district last November. Issues presented in the Long Range Planning Committee’s 2014-15 Capital Master Plan include aging buses, boilers and roofs; outdated technology; cracked parking lots; unraveling carpet; safety and security needs; and new construction prompted by near-capacity schools. “This seems urgent to me,” DCSD chief operations officer Thomas Tsai told the board during a June presentation to the board. The resolution also states DCSD will continue studying fiscally responsible ways to address the district’s capital needs. Long Range Planning Committee Chair Todd Warnke said the group will continue following the resolution’s directive to educate the community on the issue, gather feedback and return to the board with alternatives. That could include putting the issue on the November 2015 ballot, the last chance DCSD would have to continue the current tax rate. Once tax rates begin to fall in 2016 and residents become adjusted to those lower assessments, Usechek said it would be tough to raise them back up. “Until they get their ducks in a row, (passing any question) is not viable,” he said. “They’d better do it before 2015 because that’s the last window of opportunity there is for no tax increase.”

Local artists show Western works Gray, Phippen exhibit set for Town Hall gallery By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Skilled paintings of cowboys, horses and the Western landscape will fill the Stanton Gallery at Littleton’s Town Hall Arts Center during the month of August, especially during Western Welcome Week, with the Western Heritage Art Show. The exhibit opens Aug. 9 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Robert Gray of Highlands Ranch and Sarah Phippen of Sedalia will exhibit images of horses, cowboys and Western landscapes. An artists’ reception is planned from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Aug. 14, and the exhibit ends Aug. 25. Robert Gray is a Colorado-born artist who paints in watercolor, oil and acrylics, showing lots of action, color and loose style. He will have 20 paintings in the Western Heritage exhibit and is excited about being in downtown Littleton, where he maintained a studio and taught for some years on West Alamo Avenue. He conducts workshops all over Colorado and paints almost every day in his home studio. “My house is just full of paintings,” he said with a laugh. “”I love to paint.” He works from photographs and memory and uses little plastic model horses. “Sometimes, I paint the horse, then just put the cowboy in the saddle,” he said. He doesn’t sketch in figures for oil or acrylic works, but may do a little pencil sketch of figure for his watercolors. A recent painting of a cowboy on a horse in the middle of a stream — fly fishing — is called “It Beats Chasin’ Cattle.” It reflects a new interest. His son got interested in fly fishing and they both signed up for a class in fly tying. Gray hasn’t caught many fish yet, but loves “the beauty of the location.” He said his brother was a better painter when they were young, but while Gray continued painting, his brother quit. “I picked up publications and art books, attended workshops all over the country,” he said. “What’s neat when I teach is that I learn from my students.” Whatever medium he’s using is his favorite on that day, he said. He’s figured out his own way to use acrylics and paints fast, whatever he’s using — even oils, where he might spend a few days. Watercolors can get overworked if the artist doesn’t stop in time. (No more than two hours.)
Phippen to show oils
Phippen said all of her works in this show will be oil paintings, although she also sculpts in bronze. Her formal training began at age 14, according to her website,
“Fly Fishing Cowboy” by Robert Gray, acrylic, is also in the Western Welcome Week Western Heritage Arts Show.
New York Eater, the national website that has a Denver version (www.denver.eater. com), has tracked the culinary trek of Colorado chefs who have packed their knives and migrated to The Big Apple. While writer Nick Solares highlights the Colorado kitchen careers of a number of chefs who practiced their craft at The Little Nell in Aspen and Frasca Food & Wine in Boulder in particular, the story had a glaring omission — my son, On the Town Junior. Mackenzie Parker Harden moved to New York City more than a year ago to pursue a performing arts career, but fell back on the restaurant training he received at Elway’s, El Diablo and (as a sage) at TAG, and landed a server job at Maialino, a much-lauded jewel in the crown of the Union Square Hospitality Group, helmed by noted restaurateur Danny Meyer. The story credits the culinary program of The Little Nell resort in Aspen and Frasca Food & Wine in Boulder for providing top New York restaurant whizzes. Among those former Coloradans are Dustin Wilson, the sommelier at Eleven Madison Park, Sabato Sagaria, chief restaurant officer for Union Square Hospitality Group and seemingly the entire staff of Charlie Bird, to name but a few. The story notes: “Is Colorado turning into a farm system for NYC kitchens? Is this just a strange coincidence? Or is there, in fact, a Colorado connection? Eater talked with some of the state’s notable expats to find out just why, exactly, so many talented hospitality professionals are migrating from Colorado to New York.” It continues: “Colorado is in many ways the quintessential Western state, and the resourcefulness and spirit of independence that were such driving forces in the migration across the plains still manifest themselves there. `It’s hard to live in Colorado if you are not a motivated person,’ says Ryan Hardy, chef and owner of Charlie Bird in NYC. Originally from Kentucky, Hardy spent a decade in Colorado before moving to New York and opening his own restaurant. He has played a role in the cross-pollination of restaurant cultures between the two places, bringing others from Colorado, such as Grant Reynolds, the wine director at Charlie Bird, with him.”
Teddy walks tall LEFT: “Answering the Call” oil on linen by Sarah Phippen of Sedalia is in the Western Heritage Exhibit at Town Hall’s Stanton Gallery during August. RIGHT: “Scouting,” oil by Robert Gray, is also in the exhibit. and she has since studied with Jim Norton, Daniel Sprick, Sandra Kaplan and Anthony J. Ryder. Her grandfather was sculptor, painter and founder of Cowboy Artists of America George Phippen, and she was recognized in 2013 by the Phippen Museum Western Art Show in Prescott, Ariz. “I grew up surrounded by livestock and wildlife,” Phippen writes. “Observing their personalities and expressions allowed me to experience their quiet moments or read trouble in their eyes. I see this heritage as part of our age-old relationship with animals; it is part of being human, a privilege that surrounds us every day.” As part of her training, Phippen worked as a wax chaser at the Joseph’s Art Works bronze foundry in Sheridan, operated by the late Bill Joseph’s son Patrick. She assisted with a 2004 retrospective for George Phippen, held at the Phippen Museum, and developed an art enrichment program for elementary students. A true Western artist, Phippen’s website reads, she belongs to the Art Students
League of Denver and to the Colorado Farm Bureau. “Communicating emotions in a visual language, either in painting or sculpture, requires a fluency in light, color, form, as well as patient observations … Observe and observe again and look for the reasons behind expressions. How — and why — does a horse smile? That’s what I’m after.” She thinks she will have about eight paintings: two large horses, a 16-by-20 landscape and some smaller studies. New for her: two light figures on a dark background.
IF YOU GO The Western Heritage Art Show will open Aug. 9 and run through Aug. 25 at Town Hall Arts Center, 2450 W. Main Street in downtown Littleton.

Horses saved by special needs group Cookies sold to raise money for horse auction By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com There is nothing more pure in the world than the selfless act of saving a life. An idea for such noble work can come from anyone, and in one recent case, it was the brains behind “Drifter’s Hearts of Hope.” The group of special needs teens from Parker devised a plan to sell oat-and-molasses cookies for horses at local businesses to benefit a rescue in Golden, and that soon morphed into a plan to personally become involved in rescuing equines. With help from Elbert County resident Jacqui Avis, the group raised $1,500 from cookie sales, private donations and a silent auction July 12. It was enough to save three horses from slaughter at an auction in Fort Collins. Bella Kirshner, a Parker teen with special needs, was the lone member of the group to attend the auction. While walking around the viewing pens, she and her mother, Jean, noticed an old mare being repeatedly kicked by a dominant male horse. They had the mare removed and decided that would be the first horse they would rescue. Drifter’s Hearts of Hope named the horse “Hope,” and it has since become a loving companion, laying its head on the shoulders of special needs children who pay a visit. “I think she knows she was rescued,” Jean
Kirshner said. They also picked up a 5-year-old Appaloosa they named “Spirit,” and thanks to a last-minute push by Avis, they wound up with a third horse they did not originally plan on taking home. That one, a paint horse, was later dubbed “Clarity,” and it has since drawn interest from people who want to adopt it. Through the organization’s Facebook page, they also found separate homes for a miniature horse, donkey and quarter horse, bringing their total rescue tally for the day to six animals. Before the auction, the group put out a plea on its Facebook page for a donation of land. Avis’s neighbor volunteered the land — “the one piece we didn’t have,” Kirshner said — and the special needs kids and their parents repaired fences and got the pasture ready for its grateful new occupants, Hope and Spirit. The group responsible for saving them got a chance to say hello July 24, and everything suddenly became real. “They were just overjoyed and surprised,” Kirshner said of the meeting. Drifter’s Hearts of Hope got its name and mission from a chance opportunity. Last year, a friend of a friend who rescued a horse suggested inviting Bella over for an impromptu session of hippotherapy, a practice that pairs horses with disadvantaged kids and adults to improve neurological function and form bonds. Bella groomed “Drifter” and went to a veterinary hospital to help apply bandages after the horse underwent surgery. Drifter’s owners
From left, Patrick Zimmerman, Ian Malcolm, Bella Kirshner, volunteer Carlos Castro Robinson and Alison Halula hang out with one of the horses they saved from slaughter. Photo by Christine Robinson immediately noticed a difference in his demeanor, and Bella’s mother said her 13-yearold daughter became more responsible and confident than ever. “People with special needs have people caring for them, but they don’t often have the opportunity to be responsible for somebody or something else,” said Kirshner, a firstgrade teacher at Mammoth Heights Elementary School in Parker.
Knowing that they tapped into something worth further exploration, Kirshner, Bella and Bella’s special needs friends made oat-andmolasses Christmas cookies last December, and that got the ball rolling on a cause that is certain to gather steam. The goal of Drifter’s Hearts of Hope is to find homes for Hope and Spirit to make room for more rescues. To get involved or donate, visit the group’s Facebook page.

Woodturning artist spins magic Ron Ferreira to appear with works at Parker’s Art in the Park By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com The notion that his art might one day become an heirloom, passed down through a family he’ll never meet, motivates Ron Ferreira to achieve perfection. Though he descends from a line of stone masons, Ferreira’s chosen medium is woodturning. It’s a practice that requires skill with tools and dyes and, of course, his hands. Retired from commercial construction, Ferreira joined a woodworking club in 2000 and started out on typical projects, but was soon intrigued by the idea of carving out a bowl. His pieces gradually became more intricate, and after handing out finished platters, candlestick holders and serving bowls to surprised friends and neighbors, Ferreira decided to start a business, known simply as “Woodturnings by Ron.” He revealed his talents to the public during his first show last year, but left with a slight feeling of disappointment. “It broke my heart because I sold my two favorite pieces last year,” he said. “But you can’t store them, and I have to get them out there.” The Parker Artists Guild member is scheduled to appear at six art shows this year, including Art in the Park Aug. 16-17 at O’Brien Park, 10795 Victorian Dr. in Parker. The price of his artwork ranges from $50 to $500 for the more elaborate creations. In a distinct Rhode Island accent, Ferreira talks excitedly about experimenting with grain patterns and carefully applying iridescent dyes and choosing the right chunk of wood with which to start. Many of his pieces are made from fruit trees, some knocked down by a hurricane and others removed because they were too close to power lines. Ferreira jokes that his actual favorite type of wood is “free.” He sometimes wakes up at 3 or 4 a.m. with a project idea, puts on a pot of coffee, and disappears into the garage, where he keeps his lathe and most of his tools. “Once I get going on it, I can’t stop,” he says. “It’s very addictive.” The Parker resident is steadfast in his belief that woodturning is an art, not a craft, and should be treated as such, although it requires some explanation for casual observers. A few of Ferreira’s bowls are textured
Ron Ferreira, a woodturning artist from Parker, shows some of his creations. Ferreira will be among those selling their work at Art in the Park Aug. 16-17 at O’Brien Park. Photos by Chris Michlewicz and pierced with a dental drill-like tool that carves out non-geometrical holes into wood that has been carved down to a width of one-sixteenth of an inch. Patience and precision are crucial, just like in more known art forms like acrylic painting and sculpturing. As with most artists, the most gratifying feeling comes when an enthusiastic customer stops by Ferreira’s booth and expresses a deep appreciation for his work. “That’s what I’m there for,” he said. “I want to see that, watch their face light up.” For more information, stop by Ferreira’s booth at Art in the Park or visit his Facebook page by typing “Woodturnings by Ron” into the search field.
Speaker shoots wildlife in the nicest way By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com “Our Wonderful World of Wildlife” is Russ Burden’s title for his 20-minute program that features photos of mammals, birds, insects and more, photographed both locally and during the nature photography tours he conducts. Slides are accompanied by music, offering a mini-escape from reality. He will present the program at 7 p.m. Aug. 12 for the Englewood Camera Club’s monthly meeting at Lutheran Church of the Holy Spirit in Centennial. Guests and new members are welcome to this longstanding club (60 years), according to member Steve Johnson. Burden, a Parker resident, teaches locally and travels across the U.S. and around the world (Africa is a new destination), connecting photographers and nature. He replied to our inquiry from Glacier National Park, where he is conducting two tours, photographing the spectacular scenery and wildlife. His website offers a nice hint for those who can’t contemplate a long journey to Africa right now: zoo photography. He offers suggestions for equipment to take on a “Safari to the Zoo” and wryly comments that it’s easier to get a close-up shot there. He also offers “10 Ways To Become a Better Photographer” on his well-organized website: RussBurdenPhotography.com.

Student art shown at Castle Rock hospital ‘Beautiful space’ aims to boost healing By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com Twenty-two pieces of artwork by Douglas County High School students “gave us a gift — a positive and beautiful space within the hospital,” said curator/artist Mary Williams of Castle Pines, speaking about an exhibit at Castle Rock Adventist Hospital. Williams places art in three area Adventist hospitals: Castle Rock, Parker and Littleton, for two-month periods. The theme of this show is “Nature and Healing.” “Research consistently demonstrates the proven healing and restorative benefits of integrating arts into hospital environment,” Williams wrote. “In particular, inspirational images of nature evoke a tranquil, thoughtful and peaceful experience for the viewer. These visual experiences of nature can help create a more positive perspective and mood, resulting in a greater sense of health and well-being.” The Healing Arts program, directed by Jude Keller, is sponsored by the hospital’s foundation and a gift from a Castle Rock

Beach is also exhibited in the DCHS art show at the hospital. Courtesy photos donor, Aloha Trust, a family trust honoring H. Everist, the founding donor for the Youth, Art and Wellness program at Castle Rock Adventist. Todd Folkenberg, hospital CEO, said,
“Make a Wish” by Morgan Bidwell is in the DCHS exhibit at Castle Rock Adventist Hospital.
“We are always looking for creative ways to partner with our community on advancing wellness. Our partnership with Douglas County High School is a perfect example. I look forward to seeing the creative interpretation through art of wellness and nature by students in our community.” Williams approached DCHS art teachers Cindy Ross and Brooke Speegle about an exhibit in the fall of 2013. “The students were tasked with creating visuals around themes such as: hope, peace, beauty and serenity and strength through nature and the human spirit,” Williams said. DCHS is one of only two schools in the Douglas County district that offers a comprehensive, high-level, multidisciplinary art program through AP courses and the IB diploma program, Williams added. The hospital’s foundation will offer People’s Choice and Critic’s Choice monetary awards. Judging will be based on
overall creativity, originality and imagination. Readers are invited to visit and cast a vote on ballots available at the information desk in the lobby. An artists’ reception will be held from 5-7 p.m. on Aug. 19 — a good opportunity to view the art and cast a vote. “Nature is full of beauty in which many individuals can find serenity; it is also native to its surroundings. That is why I chose to combine a photo of a young girl and flowers to create this image. I wanted to portray how we perceive the innocence and peacefulness of nature individually in order to find tranquility in our own lives,” said young artist Katie Kearl about her “Multiple Image of Girl’s Face and Flowers.”
IF YOU GO Castle Rock Adventist Hospital is located at 2350 Meadows Blvd., Castle Rock. The artists’ reception is on Aug. 19, from 5-7 p.m.

Local restaurants get big exposure at Taste Event to feature food from more than 50 vendors from around Douglas County By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinado @coloradocommunitymedia.com More than 50 different restaurants and food vendors will fill the Douglas County Events Center for the 12th annual Taste of Douglas County on Aug. 21. Some names will be as big as Outback Steakhouse and Old Chicago Pizza. But it’s the little guys who really get the chance to shine. “It’s a wonderful event. It’s really a celebration of all the great food and restaurants that we have here in the county and it’s an opportunity for the restaurant owners, especially the people who own the smaller, local places, to have people try their food and get their name out there,” said John Delay, owner of the Pegasus Restaurant in downtown Castle Rock, 313 Jerry Street. For smaller restaurants that don’t feel that they can support a booth at the event, there will also be a food court where restaurants can send in food to be passed out by the event wait staff. “Not everyone can be Outback Steakhouse or Maggiano’s,” said Taste of Douglas County organizer and radio personality Mike Boyle, who hosts a restaurant talk
show on KNUS 710 AM. “We want to make sure that regardless of the size of your restaurant, we have an opportunity for you to promote yourself and get the word out.” New this year at the event will be a cooking competition that will pit five of the county’s restaurants against each other, including Old Stone Church, Crave Real Burgers, Manna Restaurant, LYFE Kitchen and Blue Nectar Mexican Grill. Each competitor will submit any single dish of their choosing for a taste test by a panel of judges. “We’re always looking for ways to improve the event and we got a lot of people coming to us and saying `how about a competition,’” said Boyle. A judge’s award and a people’s choice award will be given out to winners of the event. Taste-goers will also have the opportunity to spin a prize wheel to win gift certificates from area restaurants like L & L Hawaiian Barbecue, Bonefish Grill, Brewery Bar III and LoDo’s Bar & Grill. Restaurants will also offer menus, coupons and other incentives for you to visit their establishments. “I’ve been to every food festival in the state, and I’m not going to say this is better than that or who the best is, but the event is as good as any in Colorado,” Boyle said. “You could spend a couple thousand dollars and go to something like Aspen Food and Wine, but for $10 you’re going to have
A variety of cuisine is available each year at the Taste of Douglas County. Cambozola cheese crostini with roasted garlic, fresh panzanella, basil and basalmic syrup was one option available from Castle Rock’s Siena in 2012. File photo an equally great experience in Douglas County.” This year’s restaurants will include Old Stone Church, John Holly’s Asian Bistro, LYFE Kitchen, Pegasus Restaurant, Black Eyed Pea, Dickey’s Barbecue Pit, B & B Cafe, India’s Castle, Casa Caliente Mexican Restaurant, Ali Baba Mediterranean Grill and Crave Real Burgers among others. The Taste of Douglas County will be held from 5-8 p.m. Aug.21 at the Douglas
County Events Center, 500 Fairgrounds Rd. in Castle Rock. Vendors will offer selections ranging from appetizers to main courses and desserts. Tickets are $20 at the door and $10 if bought in in advance. Children 4-yearsold and under are free. To buy tickets and see the full list of restaurants, visit www. tasteofdouglascounty.com. Admission includes a sampling of food from each of the different restaurants.
Single moms group to host Women of Worth conference Free event slated for Sept.6 will feauture speakers on forgiveness, parenting, more By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinado @coloradocommunitymedia.com Lorena Waugh wants to make sure that single mothers know they have a place they can turn in Castle Rock during times of
need. Waugh leads a single mothers group hosted by Creekside Bible Church in Castle Rock. The group provides a place where single mothers can come talk, share their experiences and provide education and resources to moms who need help. “We feel like each individual woman has a different story and different challenges and we try to help them through those struggles that are specific to them,” Waugh said. Waugh said the group meets once or
12th Annual
twice a week at the church — located at 2180 Interstate 25 — and that women have the opportunity to work in groups or to receive personal one-on-one mentoring. According to Waugh, who is a single mother herself, the group has about 10 regular members currently and 12 children between them. Group members work though challenges like financial struggles, depression, lack of available childcare and emotional distress. Waugh said that through the group, she hopes women are able to renew, rebuild and reaffirm their self-esteem. “Whatever you’re going through, we want you to know that there are people here in the community who want to help you,” she said. The group will be hosting their Women of Worth Conference from 8 a.m. until 3 p.m. Sept. 6 at Creekside Bible church. The event is free and a continental breakfast and lunch will be provided. The conference will feature
different speakers and touch on the different challenges of being a single mother. Mary Lou Powell, a Denver woman who was given away by her parents when she was 8-years-old, will speak about forgiveness. Dianne Daniels, who hosts the Mothering in the Moment radio show on Tuesdays and Thursdays on 810 KLVZ, will talk about parenting. Jen Keiser, a single mother of five who has spent the last six years homeschooling her children, will close out the event by telling her own personal story. Waugh said that she hopes more women will be exposed to her support group through the event. “We want to encourage ladies to come and meet with us and ask any questions they might have and get the help they need,” Waugh said. Registration is open until Aug.31. Visit www.creeksidebible.com to sign up.

A competitive community of CrossFitters Team from Douglas County gym competes in world competition in California By Christy Steadman
csteadman @coloradocommunitymedia.com CrossFit is a community. “CrossFit is not easy,” said Steve Hartle, owner of Backcountry CrossFit gym in Highlands Ranch. “It’s the motivation from the group that helps drive you. That sense of community that we’re all in this together.” Recently, seven Highlands Ranch athletes from Backcountry CrossFit competed at the Reebok CrossFit Games, a worldwide competition to “find the fittest on Earth,” which took place July 25-31 in Carson, Calif. According to the CrossFit Games website, “the goal is to find the fittest athletes, not to produce an easily replicable workout program.” Although only seven people affiliated with Backcountry CrossFit qualified to compete in the games, Hartle said it was a group effort that got them there. He said just qualifying for the games is a big deal, and over 45 athletes from the local gym went to spectate and cheer on their team. “We’re (only) the second team in Colorado to ever qualify for the games,” he said, adding that the competition has been around since 2007. Each CrossFit gym is independently owned, and there are about 10,000 in the world, Hartle said. From those 10,000 gyms, 217,000 people began the process of qualifying for the CrossFit Games with the Open, a competition that took place at the end of February. Hartle said the Open consisted of five weeks of different judged workouts. Each week, the scores are compared to others from throughout the region. There are 17 regions around the world. Teams competing in Backcountry CrossFit’s region come from Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Arizona, New Mexico and Nevada. After scoring high enough in the Open, the
Chris Dozois of Castle Rock competes in the mens deadlift at the Reebok CrossFit Games in California. Dozois was one of seven members of Highlands Ranch’s Backcountry CrossFit that competed in the world championship competition. Photo by Robbie Wright top 30 teams from the region went on to Regionals in May, which took place in Salt Lake City. The Regional competition is a “three-day competition of head-to-head workouts,” Hartle said. Of the 30 teams that competed in Regionals, the top three qualified to compete in the CrossFit Games. The Backcountry CrossFit team, called Backcountry Black, won second place at Regionals. The team consists of three women, Stephanie Brady and Meredith Smith of Highlands Ranch, and Becky Conzelman of Denver; and three men, Dalton Spanbauer of Highlands Ranch, Chris Dozois of Castle Rock and Dave Foster of Denver. Backcountry CrossFit also had a master in the competition, Mike Egan of Highlands Ranch, who competed individually. Backcountry Black competed in 13 differ-
ent scored workouts, Hartle said, eventually placing 15th out of 43 teams. Egan competed against 19 other athletes, and was required to do eight different workouts. He finished 12th in the men’s 45-49-year-old division. “CrossFit, in general, is competitive,” Egan said. “You’re competing every day — either against yourself or others in the gym. But, everyone is there, still encouraging you.” A definition of CrossFit is “constantly varied, functional movements (that are) performed at high intensity over a broad time and modal domains.” Hartle said the workouts have to encompass certain things, but can be anything from Olympic lifting, gymnastics and cardio. CrossFit is known as a general preparedness program because it “specializes in not specializing,” Hartle said. “One of the beautiful things about Cross-
Fit is that anyone can do it (because) it can be scaled to people’s different abilities,” Hartle said. “You challenge yourself every day (and) the better you get, the harder it gets. The appeal is that you never plateau.” Egan said the hardest part about getting involved with CrossFit is showing up. “When you first walk in the door, it’s intimidating — people doing strange workouts,” Egan said, “but it’s geared from entry-level to advanced. If you do the work, you see progress.” Hartle’s wife, Ashley, who is co-owner of Backcountry CrossFit, said there is no limitation with CrossFit because everything can be modified. She said people who do it gain a new outlook on what they can accomplish. “CrossFit is core-centric,” she said. “It starts with the core and works out. It makes you stronger for everything you do in life.”
Valor senior heads to China to throw discus Showalter to compete with Team USA in Youth Olympics By Jim Benton
jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Haley Showalter’s first taste of International competition was bitter. She hopes for a sweeter taste when she competes as a member of the USA Track and Field Youth Olympic team in the discus at the Youth Olympic Games for 16- and 17-year old athletes Aug. 16-28 in Nanjing, China. Showalter, a senior-to-be at Valor Christian who won the Class 4A State discus championship in May, was among the participants at the Junior World Championships, held July 22-27 in Eugene, Ore. She enjoyed herself despite not faring well in the hammer throw, which ironically is her favorite event. “I didn’t do very well,” said Showalter. “I scratched on all my throws in the qualifiers. That was a little disappointing but despite that I probably had the best time of my life out there with my teammates and watching everybody else compete. “I had never competed internationally. It was a little intimidating so it’s good to have the experience. There was tons of good competition. There were a lot of European girls there and they have been throwing the hammer a lot longer than I have. They have a whole lot more experience. I’ve just got to practice more and get a few more years of experience under my belt.” Rhode Island is the only state that sanctions the hammer throw for high school athletes but Showalter’s heave of 193 feet, 4 inches is the country’s best prep throw this year. Showalter qualified for the Youth Olympics with a personal best discus throw of 153.5 feet at the American Youth Olympic Trials earlier this summer in Miramar, Fla.
Valor Christian’s Haley Showalter, who won the state championship in discus, is headed to China Aug. 16-28 to throw the discus for the United States in the Youth Olympic Games. Photos by Jim Benton “I’m excited that I earned another chance to get another international competition experience,” said Showalter. “I’ve got to train with the discus now and get ready. “Hammer is my favorite event. Mostly my focus goes on the discus right now and we’ll probably start throwing the shot during the indoor season. I’m working on everything in my form. I have a lot to iron out. If I fix my form I could throw 20 feet further. I have a lot to straighten out in my form.” Tom Menting is Showalter’s Dad and coach.
“I’ve been coaching her since she was 11-years-old,” said Menting. “My certification is in sports performance training. I started training her after school just to get her acclimated to movement. She responded very well. “She leaves for China Aug. 13. Every week we’ve been doing conference calls. They are telling the kids as much as it is for the competition and Olympic Games for kids under 18-years-old, they are trying to make it very cultural so they get to see some of China and meet people from other countries.’’
Showalter, who has also trained for seven years as a classical pianist, can’t wait. “I’ve never been out of the country so it will be interesting to see the different culture in a different part of the world,” she said. “I took piano lessons a few years back and I still play but I don’t do it as often. Classical is mostly what I practiced and played. It didn’t fit into my schedule with track and basketball though.” Showalter abandoned basketball two years ago and now the world anticipates her gifts as a track and field competitor.

Heat recommendations made
The Colorado High School Activities Association’s Sports Medicine Committee has made recommendations for heat acclimatization for early-season football. The recommendations are for the summer heat spanning a three-week time period from the start of practice through Labor Day. Some of the medicine committee’s suggestions include: any single practice should not exceed two hours with an additional 25 minutes added for water breaks; if a second practice is held the same day, it should only be a walkthrough and no protective gear except helmets should be worn; total practice time for two-a-days should not exceed
three hours total which does not include water breaks and every coaching staff should have a heat index application downloaded so they can monitor heat conditions.
From the links Calli Ringsby, the former Cherry Creek golfer who will play at Stanford this fall, and Jaylee Tait of Littleton will be in the field for the U.S. Amateur Aug. 4-10 at Nassau County Club in Glen Cove, N.Y.

South Metro Fire honors citizens who stepped up to help out in times of need By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com When a bystander steps in to save a life, victim and rescuer are usually complete strangers. Yet it turns out that Bob Marlin knew those who rushed to his aid on the first tee box at The Meadows Golf Club in south Jefferson County. In fact, he had trained them to use the automated external defibrillator that brought his heart back to a normal rhythm. Marlin, believe it or not, had been a driving force behind the installation of that very AED when he worked for the West Metro Fire Protection District — the department that serves the golf course. Marlin is now with neighboring South Metro Fire Rescue, the agency that presented a lifesaving award to the employees of The Meadows and West Metro responders during a standing-room-only ceremony July 28 at the authority’s headquarters in Centennial. His daughter, Cameron Marlin, made it a point to attend the awards ceremony, where she delivered an appreciative hug to each of the people who made sure her father survived his scare. “It’s nice to meet them outside of a hospital setting,” she said. Coincidentally, Marlin also knew the doctor who was standing over him when he awoke at the hospital. He greeted the doc enthusiastically until Marlin realized why he was there. The recognition for Marlin’s rescuers was far from the only feel-good moment of the night. The other heroes recognized during South Metro Fire Rescue’s annual citizen awards event were each met with thunderous applause for their actions. Fire Chief Dan Qualman said they each went “over and above what’s reasonably expected.” That includes Castle Rock resident Brian Lindeman, a trained EMT who works for Lockheed Martin’s emergency services division. Lindeman was a few vehicles away from a horrific crash in which a cement truck pulled in front of a woman on a motorcycle at U.S. 85 and Airport Road, just north of Sedalia. The victim was in bad condition; her throat had been punctured, and Lindeman held her in such a way that she could continue to breathe. “There is no doubt about it,” said Marcos Mocine-McQueen, the South Metro paramedic who was among the first emergency personnel on scene, “maintaining her airway was key to her survival.” Lindeman provided an assessment of the woman’s injuries and detailed his lifesaving measures to that point, the exact information Mocine-McQueen needed to keep her alive on the way to the hospital, he said. Lindeman had also stabilized the victim’s cervical spine. Two months later, the woman is still recovering in the hospital, but Lindeman’s selflessness gave her another chance. “He stepped in because he cares about people,” said Mocine-McQueen, who presented the award. “She has kids and grandkids that she’s going to get to spend more time with.”
OTHER AWARD RECIPIENTS • Kate Jureller, Kate Tillman and Mike Staheli, who all stepped in to save Parker resident Art Cales, 51, when he went into sudden cardiac arrest at Lifetime Fitness in January. • Robert Rinne, a South Metro firefighter who was off duty when he administered CPR on a woman who was eating at Maggiano’s. He also cleared her obstructed airway before medics arrived. • Joseph W. Ratcliff II, Bryan Schoff, Deborah Hall, David Tegtmeyer and Chris Sharp, who helped residents escape a burning apartment building in Centennial when the stairwell leading outside was blocked by flames. They pitched in by putting mattresses in the bed of a pickup truck so residents on higher floors could jump safely. • Joseph Sprague, Jackson Bishop and Troy Seim, who attempted to save a Castle Pines boy who was run over in June by a vehicle he had been playing in. Qualman said not every attempt to save a life has a happy ending, but he noted that the men gave paramedics a fighting chance when there otherwise would not have been one. • Mike Keefover, who administered CPR and used an AED to save a man who went into cardiac arrest at Centennial Airport. • The team of Safety Shepherds at Lincoln Meadows Senior Living, who are responsible for assisting with emergency situations, including nighttime evacuations.

Senior Housing Options has summer play program By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com Ernest Thompson’s well-loved play, “On Golden Pond,” with its window on aging, is certainly an appropriate choice for an environmental production at Senior Housing Options’ historic Barth Hotel in downtown Denver, which serves about 62 assisted-living residents. The lobby becomes a stage for a few weeks each summer when a seasoned cast and crew produce a popular play, with proceeds benefitting SHO’s residents in 14 locations including Denver, Cortez, Granby, Kremmling, Longmont and Parachute. The loons are back on Golden Pond, a idyllic New England summer vacation spot, where retired professor Norman Thayer and his loving wife Ethel have visited for many years. It’s Norman’s 80th birthday and their middle-aged divorced daughter, Chelsea, whom they haven’t seen for a long time, appears with a new boyfriend and his teenage son. Chelsea asks them to care for Billy Ray Jr. while she and her boyfriend go to Europe, and Norman and Ethel find a grandson.
This is the seventh annual theater production at the Barth and is directed for a third year by Ashlee Temple. Veteran actors Larry Hecht and Billie McBride play the Thayers, with Tara Falk as Chelsea, Drew Horwitz as Billie Ray Sr., Shem Brown as Billie Ray Jr., and John Fortmiller as Charlie the mailman, who long ago had a crush on Chelsea. Old resentments are revisited and new relationships are formed as we spend a summer with the Thayer family.

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF AUG 4, 2014
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Technology snafus tax your patience. But before you throw that computer or oth er bulky hardware into the trash, take a deep breath and call someone knowledgeable for help. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Don’t be too upset if your generosity goes unappreciated. These things happen, and rather than brood over it, move on. A new friend could open up some exciting new possibilities. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) A loved one helps you get through an especially difficult emotional situation. Spend the weekend immersed in the body and soul restorative powers of music and the other arts.

GALLERY OF GAMES
CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) You are pretty much in charge of what you want to do this week. However, it might be a good idea to keep an open mind regarding suggestions from people you know you can trust. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Another chance to shine (something always dear to the Lion’s heart) might be resented by others. But you earned it, so enjoy it. The weekend brings news about a family member. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) A suggestion that never took off could become viable again. Dust it off, update it if necessary, and resubmit it. In your personal life, a new relationship takes an “interesting” turn. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Confronting a new challenge to your stated position could work to your advantage by settling all doubts once you’re able to present a solid defense backed up by equally solid facts. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) You enjoy doing nice things for others. But this is a good time to do something nice for yourself as well. You might want to start by planning a super-special getaway weekend. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) Some changes you feel you need to make might be reasonable and appropriate. But others might lead to new problems. Think things through carefully before you act. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Good instincts usually keep the sure-footed Goat on the right path. So, what others might see as stubbornness on your part, in fact reflects your good sense of what is worth supporting. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) A period of introspection could lead to some surprising conclusions -- and also equally surprising changes -- involving a number of your long-held positions on several issues. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) The financially practical Pisces might want to take a sensible approach to spending as well as investing. Being prudent now pays off later. A romantic situation moves into another phase. BORN THIS WEEK: Your sense of curiosity keeps you continually alert for what’s new about people, places and things. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.
