A lot of people decided that bright sunshine, mild temperatures and several inches of new snow on Dec. 27 made the perfect conditions for sledding at socalled “Mount Englewood,” which really is the sloping sides of the Hosanna Sports Complex. “Coming here today is so much fun for my kids,” Irene Patterson said. “We live in southern Oklahoma and are here visiting my sister. We don’t have many hills and don’t
get a lot of snow. This was too good to pass up for our kids. We borrowed a sled, bundled up the girls and came here. You can tell from their smiles and giggles they are having fun. I approve and I even took a turn sledding down the hill.” The site is popular. There is easy access with plenty of parking spaces near the top of the slope. The trip down the hill goes quickly. Walking back up the slope takes a little longer, but few if any seem to mind. On Dec. 27 there were usually about 40 adults and children testing the slopes. As individuals decided they had had enough fun for the day, it seemed another group arrived to take their places on the Sledding continues on Page 8

tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Englewood will study the future of its fire and medical emergency services during a Jan. 14 study session. At issue is whether the city can continue providing the services for residents; the other main option would be for Englewood to contract with an outside agency to provide them. Fire and emergency medical services for Englewood residents can’t be maintained at the current level with the funding available, City Manager Eric Keck said. Decisions on what the future holds for the Englewood Fire Department can’t continue to be delayed, he said. The study session will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the community room on the second floor of the Englewood Civic Center, 1000 Englewood Parkway. It is a city council study session and open to the public. “The city council will decide who will provide fire protection for Englewood in the future,” Keck said in an earlier interview. “The two options being considered are to either keep an independent Englewood Fire Department

Gas drops to lowest prices in years South metro area seeing $2 a gallon or less in most areas By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com Gasoline prices have fallen to their lowest point in years, bringing relief to consumers at the pump. According to the AAA Fuel Gauge Report, which tracks and compares prices nationally, fuel prices in the Denver metro area have fallen more than a dollar since the same time last year. “I think it has been a big relief for a lot of people, especially considering how high the prices were a few years ago,” said Ryan Strange, a Denver resident who stopped to fill up at the Conoco station at 9010 Park Meadows Drive in Lone Tree. As of Jan. 5, the average price per gallon in Denver was $2.05 for regular gas, down from $3.14 at the same time in 2014. Many stations in the south metro area were selling gas for
less than $2 a gallon. Nationally, the average price for a gallon of regular gasoline was $2.19, down from $3.31 a year ago. “Lower gas prices are a huge benefit for consumers in Douglas County and around Colorado this winter, especially for commuters and those travelling over the holidays,” said Amy Sherman, president of the Northwest Douglas County Economic Development Organization and chairwoman of the Douglas County Energy Coalition. A number of factors have contributed to the drop in prices at the pump, including the drop in the cost of crude oil. According to a recent report by The Economist, the price of oil has dropped 40 percent since June, when it was $115 a barrel. It is now below $70. A number of factors have contributed to the decline in oil prices, including low demand caused by weak economic activity globally; the fact that turmoil in the Middle East, especially Libya and Iraq, has not caused a slowdown in oil production as many forecasters expected; the rise of America as an energy
producer, which has weakened demand for fuel from overseas; and the influx of other energy sources such as natural gas and green energies like solar and wind. While lower gasoline prices have been a welcome sight to consumers, there is some long-term concern about the drop in prices among oil-producing states like Texas, Oklahoma and North Dakota, where oil jobs make up a large sector of the state economy. If prices continue to drop or stay low, it could mean a loss of jobs. However, there is still optimism in Colorado, where fossil fuel extraction from shale and natural gas are leading the way. “Fortunately, Coloradans benefit in a variety of ways because Colorado is an energyproducing state,” Sherman said. “A recent study by the University of Colorado Leeds School of Business confirms the numerous economic benefits of the oil and natural gas industry in Colorado: high-paying jobs, increased tax revenue, funds for classrooms, energy savings, and resources for public safety. These numerous benefits remain, even as complex gas prices fluctuate.”

Deputy called a hero EHS graduate lost life helping people By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com The Englewood City Council observed a moment of silence during its Jan. 5 meeting as a tribute to Jefferson County Sheriff’s Sgt. Sean Renfro, an Englewood High School graduate, who lost his life helping people involved in a one-car auto accident. Renfro was off duty Jan. 3 when he stopped about 2:30 p.m. on a snow-covered, icy section of U.S. Highway 285 about eight miles west of C-470. He was trying to help a family after its car spun out on the icy roads, went off the highway and wouldn’t start. Sgt. Sean Renfro He was assisting the three members of the Tate family that included a 9-month-old boy by letting them sit in his truck to keep warm. As he was standing near his truck, another vehicle going the other way spun out, crossed the median and Renfro suffered fatal injuries when the vehicle hit him. The family
SPECIAL
he was assisting has called him their guardian angel. Englewood Mayor Randy Penn taught and coached Renfro, who graduated from Englewood High School in 1992. “Students are like children, you don’t expect to have them die before you do,” Penn told the council. “I feel like I lost a family member when a young man like Sean, a young man you taught and coached, dies.” Penn has had calls from alumni asking about the funeral arraignment that, as of the council meeting, hadn’t been announced, he said. Renfro played football for the Pirates for four years. “He played offensive guard and defensive tackle for me for four seasons,” the mayor said. “He was a great young man and helped anchor the ‘91 team that was one of the first Pirate teams to make it to the football playoffs.” Renfro was a 15-year veteran with the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department. At the time of his death, he was assigned the Mountain Precinct, where he supervised a team of patrol deputies. He is survived by his wife and four children, who range in age from 11 to 19. Two of the children were adopted from Russia. Funeral arrangements had not been announced at press time.

Keep talent in U.S., fix immigration system By Norman Stucker
After an almost never-ending election season, most Coloradans are tired of political talking points. It seemed every politician had the best ideas for boosting the economy, a foolproof plan for fostering job growth, and the cleverest tactics for keeping us competitive in the global economy. The good news is that the posturing has ended, leaving a real way that our representatives in Congress can keep their promises — by enacting permanent, comprehensive immigration reform. Regardless of your political persuasion, the president’s recent announcement is a temporary, targeted fix. The executive action on immigration exercised under his limited authority puts a Band-Aid on a broken system that is harming multiple facets of our society - and particularly our economy. As you read this, hundreds of Colorado’s high-tech companies are losing the world’s best and brightest engineers, researchers, scientists, and programmers as they return to their native countries after being educated in our schools. That’s because under our dated and defunct immigration system there aren’t enough H-1B visas — visas for highly skilled foreign workers — for the number of workers growing companies need. The number of visas has been capped at 85,000 since 2004, impairing burgeoning tech companies from hiring the highly skilled labor they need. These workers attend our schools, colleges, and universities and then we send them back home to compete with us, severely dulling our competitive edge and preventing companies from keeping talent here in the United States. President Obama’s announcement does prioritize some reforms that will be helpful for business, including new regulations easing restrictions on foreign managers and executives to work in the U.S., allowing the spouses of H-1B visa holders to work, and expanding the Optical Practical Training Program, a program that allows foreign students to work in the country. It will also allow workers waiting for H-1B petitions from their employers, but for whom a visa is unavailable, to apply for an adjustment of status. Finally, it will help entrepreneurs who are starting businesses and creating jobs to stay in the country
and continue fostering growth. While these provisions provide some temporary benefits for high-tech companies, we need Congress to enact sweeping reform that will bring our immigration system in line with a 21st century economy. In 2013 the Senate passed a bipartisan bill, crafted in part by Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet, which would have addressed many of the problems hurting the high-tech industry. The bill would have increased the number of H-1B visas available, and was supported by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. A report by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office found that enacting immigration reform would reduce the deficit by $197 billion in the first ten years, by $700 billion over 20 years, and would increase the GDP by 3.3 percent in 2023, and by 5.1 to 5.7 percent in 2033. That bill has never even been brought up for a vote in the House of Representatives. Our current immigration system is stifling growth and keeping us at a disadvantage. While a step in the right direction, the president’s announcement has not fixed it. After a heated and tumultuous election season,
Congress has a genuine opportunity to follow through on their campaign promises and enact legislative reform that will grow our economy and give American companies a needed competitive edge. Norman Stucker is general manager of PADT-Colorado and chair of the Economic Development Group at the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce.

Woman robbed near her home By Tom Munds
tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Englewood police are searching for a man who first rear-ended a woman’s car and later stole her purse and phone. The robbery happened about 7:20 p.m. Jan. 1 in the 4700 block of South Pennsylvania Street. According to the report, the victim said she was coming from the super market, and as she drove near her home, a man hit the rear of her car with his car. The woman pulled into her driveway
and got out of the car to talk to the man. The suspect then pushed the victim back into the driver’s seat of her car, sprayed her in the face with black spray paint, grabbed the woman’s purse, jumped into his car and drove away, according to the report. She described the robber as a white, about 5-feet-9 inches tall, between 165 and 175 pounds. He had dark hair and was wearing brown-rimmed glasses, a light blue jacket and blue jeans. The suspect reportedly was driving a white sedan with Comcast written on the side of the vehicle.

Decide how to answer ‘Should I’ questions Here’s the first scenario … one of our New Year’s resolutions was to get in better shape, lose weight, improve muscle tone, and increase our cardiovascular endurance. We are one week into our commitment, eating right and living at the gym when some well-intentioned associate decides to bring bagels and doughnuts into the office or store. And that is when the question pops into our head, “Should I or shouldn’t I?” And now the second scenario … we are out celebrating with friends. Maybe it’s a birthday, anniversary, or just watching our favorite teams in the local sports bar. The night is going incredibly well and everyone is having a ton of fun. As a matter of fact it is one of the best nights we have had in a long time as we share a great time with our closest friends and family. Before we know it, it’s decision time about driving home. The drive could be two blocks, two miles, or two hours and we have a decision to make about getting behind the wheel, and so here comes that question again, “Should I or shouldn’t I?” Now trust me, I am not trying to steal anyone’s fun or assume the role of the postChristmas Scrooge or Grinch. Stay with me on this one for just a little bit longer, OK? Let’s try the third scenario … we are in a rush, running late for a very important meeting, maybe even a final job interview or other equally significant event. As we scramble to gather ourselves together, bolt into the parking lot or garage for our car, we witness an elderly couple who has just dropped their groceries all over the parking
garage. There are milk and eggs running everywhere and cans rolling underneath the surrounding parked cars. We are already running late, our future could be on the line and yet there is that question again, “Should I or shouldn’t I?” Should I eat that doughnut or bagel? Should I get behind the wheel? Should I stop and help these folks who obviously need help? Each scenario is vastly different from the other. And that’s the point right? I mean we are faced with “Should I or shouldn’t I” situations all the time. The answer or response is going to be different for everyone based on our individual belief systems and level of integrity and commitment to our integrity. One definition of integrity is this, “Doing the right thing even when no one else is looking.” So with integrity defined in that way, the “Should I or shouldn’t I” question that pops into our heads in any situation could really be a non-question or issue as we already know what our answer or response will be, don’t we? Doing the right thing and making the
right choices in life always sounds easy, but in reality it is something that many people struggle with each and every day. This especially impacts our youth who are surrounded by peer pressure in unprecedented ways. “Should I go along to get along?” “Should I do the same things others are doing just to be accepted?” Tough stuff for sure, but better managed with a stronger belief system. And it’s not just our children or the youth, we as adults are faced with “Should I or shouldn’t I” questions every day too. And we know the difference between wrong and right, don’t we? I mean it’s just that darn temptation thing that keeps popping up, isn’t it? Here’s a tip that has helped me and it just might help you too. Commitment to our belief system, commitment to our goals, commitment to integrity places us in a position to respond favorably long before the decision point of “Should I or shouldn’t I.” As we start 2015, it has the potential to be the year where accomplishment trumps defeat, where commitment outruns temptation, and where retreat gives way to persistence and perseverance. How about you, are you already solid in knowing how you will respond in any “Should I or shouldn’t I” scenarios? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we are grounded in how we will respond, it really will be a better than good week.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Training facility a benefit to community I was appalled at Diane Schrack’s very liberal and misinformed letter on the Douglas County Training Facility. We need more of these training facilities for our law enforcement agencies. More training enforces weapon handling safety. This is a great facility and supports agencies across the state. I would suggest Ms. Schrack purchase a weapon for personal protection and then take an NRA-sanctioned course such as Personal Protection in the Home. This course is offered at many of the ranges around the Douglas County and metro area. Her statement that “with cities across the nation experiencing predatory and military style policing tactics we should know whether our law enforcement officers are being trained to look at members
of our communities as military targets or as citizens they are sworn to serve and protect” blows me away. She sounds like Al Sharpton. Keith Wanklyn Highlands Ranch
Column shows human side of immigration I read Ann Healey’s column about the undocumented woman, Rocio Mendez. I enjoyed reading it and can’t help but wonder how many millions of untold stories like hers there must be. Stories of true perseverance and courage, struggle and sacrifice; that we in our soft, comfortable, suburban lives would probably never have done so well to improve our lot in life, or even survived. Now we have all these children appearing at our borders, fleeing unthinkable violence in their home countries. What
amazing stories they could probably share despite the very few years they have lived on this earth. And yet our nation has plenty of cold heartless souls standing at the border to taunt and insult them, hoping to scare and degrade them enough that they will go back home. Anyway, I am glad you shared Rocio’s story. If more writers would share such stories, perhaps people would realize that such important issues as immigration are not about American jobs and resources, arbitrary political borders, or protecting the dominance of one domestic ethnicity over another. No, they are about human lives, and selfless good people pushed to such horrible extremes that they would do anything to make a better life for themselves and their families. David Anderson Arvada

Breakfast Queen making a move Brothers relocating eatery to new spot two doors down By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Work is underway transforming the inside of 3460 S. Broadway into a location fit for the queen — the Breakfast Queen. “The present Breakfast Queen location at 3454 S. Broadway has been a coffee shop or breakfast restaurant for at least 30 years. My brother George and I have run the place for the last 10 years,” co-owner Kosta Vasilas said in a Dec. 27 interview. “We figured we wanted to do our own thing and made the move when we got the opportunity to buy the former Sir Speedy location two doors down. It will be larger, better designed, but we will still be providing good service delivering full plates of tasty food to our customers.” The new restaurant will be larger, and seating will increase from the current 65 to 85. One wall will be stainless steel on the bottom and mirrored on the top. The other wall will be built so the restaurant can continue to display the works of local artists. Another new feature will be the availability of counter seating, with television sets mounted in the wall facing the counter. The brothers said many current menu items will be on the menu in the new restaurant, but they will tweak some current recipes and they plan to add some new items when they open at their new location in February. Kosta said the renovation is expected to cost about $450,000 and is being financed by the owners. The Breakfast Queen’s new location is the 1912 location of the Englewood Theater, the city’s first moving picture theater. It was designed to show silent films and, between films, local vocalists would sing illustrated songs as the words of the songs appeared on the screen. A historic picture in the library collection shows a very ornate theater facade at 3460 S. Broadway. The façade disappeared years ago and most recently, the location
The Breakfast Queen Restaurant will soon be leaving its location to move to the building two doors south. Work is underway on the new location that is expected to open in February. Photo by Tom Munds was Sir Speedy Printing owned by Bob Voth. The building was empty when the Vasilas brothers began renovating the building, but during demolition they found the fancy wallpaper and the red carpet that were once part of the theater. The Vasilas brothers are veterans of the restaurant business. George chose the profession about 20 years ago when he attended Johnson and Wales University and he is a certified chef. He also earned business degree. Kosta said he chose to enter the restaurant business more than 15 years ago. In addition to his culinary skills he has earned his degree in restaurant and hotel management. “We are hands-on bosses. You usually will see both of us wearing aprons, cooking the food and helping out in the kitchen,” Kosta said. His brother agreed. He said he feels cus-
tomers respect them more as members of the staff preparing their food than guys standing around telling the servers where to go and what to do. “I personally love the happy reaction of people when I give them a good meal,” George said. “For me, it is instant gratification and satisfaction by serving the customer food that is fresh, hot and tastes good.” The brothers agreed the most popular item on the menu is the breakfast burrito. George said it is the customers who have enabled him and his brother to successfully operate the Breakfast Queen. Kosta said everything served at the Breakfast Queen is made fresh in-house each day. “Every plate is full when it leaves our kitchen,” he said. “That is because we believe people like to come to a restaurant where the service is great, the price is right,
the flavor is tasty and there is food on the plate so they are full when they finish the meal.” “We want to thank all the customers who have come to our restaurant over the past 10 years,” he said. “We appreciate their business and we hope to be able to serve them in the future at our new location.” Englewood resident Doug Cohn said he has been going to the Breakfast Queen for quite a few years. “It is a nice place to go. The people are friendly, the food is good and there is plenty of it,” he said. “The Breakfast Queen is a gathering place. You always meet and chat with others from the area when you go there.” He said he is pleased the Vasilas brothers are moving to a larger location, because the Breakfast Queen is such a popular restaurant that there is often a wait to get a table.
Kagan predicts busy session Legislature has host of big issues on its platter By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com State Rep. Daniel Kagan, D-Cherry Hills Village, expects a busy session for the state legislature as members deal with issues such as continuing to increase education funding to making sure all state residents benefit from the recession recovery. “We are a divided Legislature, with a Republican-controlled Senate and a Democrat-controlled House of Representatives,” he said by phone while on vacation. “But I believe we can get a lot accomplished because the Kagan two parties working together won’t be something new, as 90 percent of the bills passed by the 2014 Legislature passed with bipartisan support.” Kagan is entering his fourth and final term in the legislature as the representative of House District 3, which includes Englewood, Sheridan, Cherry Hills Village and northern Littleton. He has been reappointed chairman of the Judiciary Committee and will continue to serve on the finance and legislative committees. He said, as he has always done, he wants to make sure the issues he supports are matters of concern to hard-working Colorado residents and not necessarily those issues supported by special interest groups with the loudest voices and most presence at the state Capitol. “I want to focus on what I heard from the people I talk to when I was going
door to door during my re-election campaign,” he said. “Repeatedly, I had people tell me they heard the economic recovery was underway but they have seen no evidence of it in their lives. So I want to support efforts to share the benefits of the economic recovery to all the people of the state and not just to the wealthy and the big corporations.” He said he is considering authoring or supporting a bill establishing an earned income tax credit. “The earned income tax credit rewards working people,” he said. “If passed, it would provide refunds of taxes paid so working people get to keep more of the money they earn.” The state representative said funding for public education will again be an issue for the Legislature. “The increased revenues enabled the Legislature to provide a substantial increase in funding for education in 2014,” he said. “I believe we want to help Colorado have the best schools in the nation, so I hope we can again increase funding for schools this year.” Kagan said the Legislature will review a recently created plan to ensure equitable water distribution to all state users. He said the plan is being devised so water will be available for development but not at the cost of sufficient water supplies for agricultural needs. “We also will be looking at concerns about the safety and proper labeling for marijuana edibles,” he said. Another issue Kagan expects to face the Legislature is the debate about standardized testing in public schools. “It appears there are a long and varied list of issues vying for consideration and action during the 2015 legislative session,” he said. “However, I believe we can address and take action on key issues by bipartisan cooperation by both houses of the Legislature.”

or to contract for fire and rescue services with a fire protection authority or department.” The challenge is to find how to provide the best possible fire and medical emergency services for Englewood residents and businesses that is economically sustainable for the city for the foreseeable future, he said. Englewood Fire Chief Andy Marsh has been working on this issue since he took over as head of the fire department about a year ago. “I think everyone agrees continuing the status quo isn’t possible,” he said. “Our fire houses are inadequate and outdated, and much of our equipment needs to be upgraded. Estimated cost to complete those projects is about $17 million. In addition, a study shows relocating one or more stations would make operations more efficient and that would require additional

slopes. The most popular device for sledding seemed to be the plastic disc but there
funds. However, the challenge is securing the funding to make those changes necessary to maintain an independent Englewood Fire Department.” The Englewood Fire Department has a long, rich history dating back to the early 1900s. The department was originally staffed primarily by volunteer firefighters. Eventually, the change was made to the city funding a department staffed by fulltime firefighters. Englewood currently has firefighters staffing three stations in the city. The 2015 city budget includes $8.2 million for the fire department, but the budget doesn’t include any funds to address upgrading the fire department facilities and equipment. “If the decision is to maintain an independent fire department, the estimate is it will take about $17 million to upgrade and modernize the fire department stations and equipment,” Keck said. “That money could only come from a source such as a bond issue. The question is whether or not Englewood residents would be willing to support a tax increase necessary for a bond issue to upgrade the facilities and
equipment. If the proposal is to increase property taxes, it probably will mean homeowners taxes would about double.” State law requires any tax increase be approved by a vote of the people. The question of funding for the fire department project as well as upgrading the safety service building can be put on the ballot, he said. However, if the residents reject the tax increase proposal, everything returns to Square One because the money for the fire department improvements would not be available, he said. Another option is contracting for another agency to provide fire protection for Englewood. Both South Metro Fire District and the Denver Fire Department would agree to contract to provide fire service protection for Englewood, the city manager said. Basic details of the two proposals are: The South Metro contract proposal would cost the city about $6.5 million a year plus the city would have to provide a one-time amount of almost $5.5 million to build a new fire station and pay the additional cost of keeping all fire department command staff in place for at least three
years. Denver Fire Department’s fire protection contract would cost the city $4.75 million a year. Denver has one fire station in Sheridan plus two on the northern borders of the city to assist the Englewood facilities in providing fire protection for the entire city. The decision rests with the city council, Keck said. He recommends they spend time making detailed analysis of the options and then decide on the best allocation of resources that will assure top quality fire protection services for Englewood. “This is an issue that needs to be addressed soon,” Keck said. “Our fire department does a good job, but the service they can provide is limited because they are operating from outdated stations and using equipment that needs to be replaced.” Morale in the fire department is low because the firefighters want to know what the future holds, he said. “We owe it to those people to make a decision in the near future,” Keck said.
were a couple long, narrow sleds, a few snowboards and one young man who didn’t have a sled, so he had fashioned one out of a piece of cardboard covered with a plastic bag. Years ago, the land that is now the Hosanna Sports Complex was level with the surrounding area. However, a developer
wanted to build a shopping complex in the floodplain and reached an agreement with the school district to excavate the area north of the high school to create a detention pond if there was a flood. The excavation also created the slopes that have become a popular local sledding spot.
Jose Gonzales put his 2-year-old son on his lap for a sledding trip down the slope. “What a great day,” the Sheridan man said. “We are having so much fun. We have made several trips down the hill. My boy squeals as we head down the hill, and that makes me laugh. This is a great way to spent time with my young son.”

‘Watercolor and webbing’ Technique skips past blank paper By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com This is how longtime art teacher Phyllis Vandehaar introduces an upcoming workshop called “Watercolor and Webbing” — “Explore the fun of inventing with several media simultaneously … ‘paying your money and taking your chances’ (so to speak). No real experience with watercolor is necessary.” Thus Vandehaar introduces the workshop she will lead on Jan. 17 for the Heritage Fine Arts Guild. It is open to members and non-members and will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Bemis Library, 6014 S.
“Gravity” is an abstract watercolor/webbing painting by Phyllis Vandehaar.
IF YOU GO “Watercolor and Webbing,” taught by Phyllis Vandehaar at Bemis Library, 6014 S. Datura St., Littleton, will be from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Jan. 17. Reservations are required. See the Heritage Fine Art Guild of Arapahoe County’s website for information, heritage-guild.com, or call 303-796-8110. Datura St. in Littleton. (Note that this is a different location than usual for the HFAG workshops.) Participants will be able to work either abstractly or more realistically as they develop a new painting. “This is not unlike Charlie Brown finding images in the clouds. It is pure fun and can result in some very handsome paintings,” Vandehaar writes. She was for many years a teacher at Arapahoe High School and since then has taught art regularly at Roxborough State Park. The webbing, a permanent spray product, is sprayed on the watercolor paper and the artist then proceeds with developing a painting from images found and can take it in several directions. “This provides a starting point and people don’t face a naked piece of white paper,” she said. Vandehaar will be painting, too, and those who feel unsure can work along with her, while others can just pursue their own plans. An additional option can be to include collage elements into the painting. A materials list will be published on the HFAG website, which begins with: 140 pound Arches watercolor paper, cold press, pad or sheets — any size, plus paints, brushes, etc. Vandehaar supplies the webbing at no charge. See Heritage Fine Arts Guild of Arapahoe County’s website at heritage-guild. com, and look for workshops.
The Colorado Symphony and the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Colorado Holiday Commission invite you to a free annual celebration of Dr. King’s life and legacy as a leader, visionary and pillar of the civil rights movement, to be held Jan. 13 at Boettcher Concert Hall in the Denver Center for the Performing Arts downtown. Now in its 25th year, this community concert recognizes individuals and organizations that embody King’s dream of equality, peace, service, and social justice. New this year, the Colorado Symphony will be joined by Denver’s Flobots, a hip-hop ensemble that uses music as a tool to ignite awareness, action, and positive change. Hosted by TV personality Tamara Banks, the program will be conducted by Scott O’Neil and will include symphonic selections by Beethoven and Dvorak as well as African-American composers Brian Keane and George Walker. In collaboration with the full orchestra, the Flobots will perform orchestral arrangements of their music, with original arrangements by Tom Hagerman of DeVotchKa, commissioned by the Colorado Symphony. The winners of four Humanitarian awards, as well as the Menola Upshaw Lifetime Achievement Award winner, will be honored during the program; all honorees are nominated and selected by the community and overseen by the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Colorado Holiday Commission. The concert is part of a weeklong celebration of Dr. King’s work as well as a call to community action. For a complete list of events, visit www. drmartinlkingjrchc.org/. Tickets to this free concert are available at the Blair-Caldwell African American Research Library, 2401 Welton St., and the Colorado Symphony box office in the Boettcher Concert Hall at 14th and Curtis streets. For details, visit www.coloradosymphony.org. The box office is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday-Friday; noon to 6 p.m. Saturday; and two hours before every performance. A ticket is required for admission. All seating is general admission on a first come, firstserved basis and a ticket does not guarantee a seat.

“Complimentary Carrots” is a watercolor/webbing painting by Phyllis Vandehaar. In general, workshops cost $30 for members and $50 for non-members. Reservations are necessary, sent to Beatrice Drury, as instructed on the application form. The guild, established in 1974, meets monthly September through June, offering a regular schedule of workshops by experienced teachers that explore different techniques. It also holds exhibits for members plus the annual “This is Colorado” show, which was recently at the Colorado Gallery of the Arts at Arapahoe Community College. Monthly meetings feature demonstrations and critiques. Members also have regular “Paint Days” without an instructor, where they help each other if needed.

Orchid Showcase back for fourth year blind repair Botanic Gardens offers respite from cold days By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com For a temporary escape from winter, enter the gates at Denver Botanic Gardens on York Street and walk straight ahead to the Orangery and the next-door Marnie’s Pavilion, where you will find hundreds of orchids in bloom starting Jan. 9. This is the fourth year for the featured Orchid Showcase, according to botanist Nick Snackenberg, who displays a variety of common and exotic species through Feb. 23. They come from the Gardens’ orchid collection of some 3,000 plants, supplemented by some purchased just for this show in order to have enough blooming plants on hand. “The Orangery is a most lovely place to sit,” he recommends. One will be surrounded by fragrant citrus plants and blooming orchids of all sorts. The next-door Marnie’s Pavilion carries a rotating exhibit of orchids and bromiliads through the year, based on what’s blooming at a given time. Snackenberg said he grew up on a Midwestern farm and attended Iowa State University to study horticulture. He has been at Denver Botanic Gardens for 21 years and “fell into tropicals … It’s lots of work — they don’t stop growing and we have space limitations.” Palm trees, for example, can’t be pruned to keep them small, so eventually they must be replaced. “We call it the circle of life,” he said. Orchids come to the collection from many sources. Some are traded with other botanic gardens and others are purchased

January highlights include: Garrett performs in her new show, “Swing Sets,” featuring the After Midnight Band playing Benny, Basie and Beyond. Opens at 8 p.m. Jan. 10 and continues on Saturdays. Burlesque on Broadway: Top Hats and Tassels Revue opens at 8 p.m. Jan. 9. Sneak peek to February: Lannie Garrett’s Valentine Show — Swingtime in the Rockies at 7 p.m. Feb. 14. The Vagina Monologues — fundraiser for The Gathering Place — Feb. 15 and 16.
D Note no more
D Note, the venue that rocked Olde Town Arvada for 12 years, played its last note on Jan. 3. Owners Dave and Mernie Rosenberg, who bought the family-friendly club from the DeGraff family in 2013, are calling it quits, according to Westword. According to the story, “Dave Rosenberg says they fell behind on rent and told the landlord they’d catch up by the year (end), but

Carpet/Flooring from local suppliers or growers in Florida. Nurseries deal with the regulations on importing plants from out of the country. There are restrictions on trade in endangered species. Snackenberg visits local collections whenever he attends a conference or national meeting. “It’s a good chance to look at the host and network — to see who’s got what.” Personal vacations will also often lead him to other gardens “to chat with the people in charge. My wish list never seems to end.” For those who think they might like to grow orchids at home, he will be offering a class at the end of February. Details were not firm when we spoke by telephone, but it should be listed on the website soon. Also, there is an active Denver Orchid Society which meets monthly and holds two shows a year, where it awards prizes to growers and has plants, supplies and advice available. New members are welcome. The American Orchid Society has a great deal of material online as well, from basics to more complex topics. And there are numerous other resources on how and what to buy and how to cultivate. All warn that overwatering is the quickest way to kill a plant. Whether one is simply in need of a flower fix or is searching for a new hobby, a visit to the Orchid Showcase, Jan. 9 to Feb. 23, is in order.
the landlord ‘decided there were other people more interesting to have in there other than us,’ says Rosenberg. ‘So they pulled our lease. That’s the way it goes.’ “‘It’s a tough business,’ Rosenberg adds. ‘We tried to do right by the bands. It’s just that Olde Town is changing a little bit. I don’t know if it’s a good thing that we’re getting out but we’ll find out down the road.’” Rosenberg blamed in part the light rail construction that has all but wiped out parking in Olde Town. “‘Two years, when construction’s all done, when that train’s running, I have a feeling it will be really nice, but for the next two years it’s going to be a tough time in Olde Town.’”

Pirates ready for 2015 action Holiday break ends as teams prepare to return to competition By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com The first days of 2015 brought the end of the holiday break along with some changes as Englewood High School sports teams prepared to return to action. One big change is basketball practice and games shift from the north gym to the remodeled Englewood High School Fieldhouse. The teams move onto the newly refinished court that has been moved to the north end of the floor where it is much closer to the fans watching the games. Englewood’s girls team practiced on the new court Jan. 2, and they were the first to play a game in the newly renovated field house as they girls opened the league season at home against Fort Lupton on Jan. 6 with a 52-39 win. That win improved the girls record to 4-5. Coach Thomas Rode said his team improved its play in each of the seven 2014 games and he feels the Pirates can be competitive in league play. The Englewood boys team practiced in the north gym Jan. 2 and moved to the new field house on Jan. 5. The Pirates opened the 2015 schedule on the road at Fort Lupton. The Pirates make their debut on the new field house court at 7 p.m. Jan. 9 against long-time rival Alameda. Dave Chapman, Englewood boys basketball coach, said his team played its best basketball so far in the final two games of 2014. “We have been playing defense pretty well all season but, in our games with Centaurus and Jefferson, our offense finally put all the elements together and clicked. I just hope that carries over to 2015.” He said Vista Peak and Elizabeth appear to be the leading contenders for the league title. “Otherwise, it appears the other teams are pretty equal, and I feel, if we play like we did against Centaurus and Jefferson, we will be right in the battle for third place,” the coach said.

That is because the Pirate wrestlers had to move out of their former practice site at Englewood Middle School by the last week of December and the wrestling room in the new field house wasn’t ready yet.
“It was disappointing not to have a place to hold open gym and open workouts for our wrestlers over the holiday break,” Pirates coach Jim Potter said. “We hope to our new wrestling room will be ready so we can begin practicing there on Jan. 5.” The Pirates currently have four wres-
tlers eligible to compete, sophomore Garrett Demitt at 170 pounds, Kevin Mahler at 182 pounds, Kyle Robideau at 220 pounds and Tony Scaggiari at heavyweight. Mahler and Scaggiari are returning lettermen. Robideau saw limited wrestling action last year and Demitt is new to the team.
Littleton girls wins 2015 hoops opener Lions resume action besting Warriors, 59-51 By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com An injury to one of its best players didn’t stop Littleton in a 59-51 win Jan. 3 over Grand Junction in non-league girls basketball action. Laura Puchino, a team leader, was slowed against the Warriors when she jammed her thumb blocking a pass in the first period. “It hurt bad enough that I didn’t play at all in the second quarter,” she said. “I got it taped at halftime and went back into the game. My thumb felt pretty good most of the time, but it hurt when I got it hit a couple times. But, when I went back in the game, I was able to pass the ball and hit some shots to help our team win.” Other halftime adjustments also helped Littleton in the win, which was the first game of the 2015 portion of the schedule. Against the Lions, Grand Junction Central trailed early but came back to take a 12-11 advantage at the end of the first quarter and led 28-22 at halftime. However, the Lions rallied and scored the first six points of the third period to tie the score, and a free-throw by Sindel Lawrence gave Littleton a 29-28 advantage. Littleton’s offensive run continued, and, halfway through the period, the Lions led 3828. Grand Junction Central battled back, tying the score at 45 with about five minutes left in the game. The Lions responded by converting

Littleton played hard the whole game, but sometimes it was a little disorganized so its pressure defense didn’t work like it should have, coach Adam Williams said. “We didn’t play very well in the first half on offense or on defense,” he said. “The halftime
discussion helped us regain our focus, play much better and win the game.” Puchino paced the Lions with 14 points, which included hitting seven of 10 foul shots, the majority in the final two quarters. She also led the team with eight steals. Teammate Rachael Pearson scored 12 points and hauled down five rebounds while guard Alexiss Orona hit seven of seven foul
shots as she scored 11 points. Sidel Lawrence was the other player in double figures as she scored 11 points and led the team with eight rebounds. “This was a good game for us at this point in the season,” Williams said. “We haven’t played a game in three weeks, and we were a little rusty early. Grand Junction Central played super hard, so it was a good tune up for us as we face a tough challenge Jan. 6 against Evergreen in our first-ever game in the Jefferson County League.” The victory raised Littleton’s non-league record to 6-1 as the team moves into the heart of the season. Action continued Jan. 9 as the Lions were on the road to play Conifer and then travel to Fort Collins Jan. 10 to play Poudre. The next Lions home game will be Jan. 14 against Valor Christian. The tipoff for home varsity games is 7 p.m. Puchino, the Littleton senior, also plays soccer and football, but basketball is probably her best sport, she said. “I think my biggest asset to the team is my court sense that makes it possible for me to recognizing the flow of the game. The court sense enables me to know where to pass the ball or the angle to take to drive to the basket for a shot,” she said. “I am fortunate because that comes natural to me.” Her sister, Katie, is a freshman playing varsity basketball, and Laura said she also has another sister younger than Katie. “We have a basketball court in our yard, so I work with my sisters to try to help them improve their game,” the senior said. “I try to help them with their shot and with ball handling. We have a lot of fun playing basketball together.”

City recycling Christmas trees for residents By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Santa has returned to the North Pole, and Englewood has once again set up dropoff sites so residents can recycle live Christmas trees free of charge. Throughout the month of January, the
city’s parks division will grind the trees into mulch. The mulch will be trucked and stored at the Englewood ServiCenter, 2800 S. Platte River Drive, so it can be used as needed in Englewood’s parks and greenbelt areas. Residents could begin dropping off trees Jan. 1 at one of the four recycling sites around the city. City officials ask everyone
dropping off a tree to be recycled to make sure all ornaments, tinsel, nails and stands are removed and to place the trees on the pile at the site. City crews will check the locations and, when enough trees have been dropped off, they fire up the grinder and turn the trees into mulch. The drop-off locations are:
The northwest corner of the south parking lot at Belleview Park, 5001 S. Inca Drive. Along the ballfield fence adjacent to the Miller Field parking lot at 3601 S. Elati St. The south parking lot at Centennial Park, 4630 S. Decatur St. The south parking lot at Bates/Logan Park, 2938 S. Logan St.

LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Catnaps are definitely recommended for Leos and Leonas who had been going at a hectic pace over the holidays. Adding relaxation time to your schedule helps restore your overdrawn energy reserves. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Sure, some of the new friends you made over the holidays might move out of your life at some point. But at least one might show significant “staying power” with some encouragement. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Encourage family members to join you in supporting a relative who could be facing a difficult emotional challenge in the New Year. Showing your love and concern helps keep his or her hopes up. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) While a long-deferred decision suddenly might take on some urgency after news on a related matter, you still need to weigh all factors carefully before deciding one way or the other. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) This is a good time to reassess the earlier plan you made for the New Year. Some elements you felt you could depend on to make it work might no longer carry that assurance. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Forming a renewed connection with a former associate is only the first step toward working out your new plans. Be prepared for problems, and deal with them as soon as they arise. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) A romantic situation that was going smoothly not too long ago might take a new turn. Be honest about your feelings before you decide whether to follow it or take another path.
