POSTAL ADDRESS
Elementary school classrooms received visitors Sept. 17 when 104 Englewood High School athletes split into groups to visit the four district elementary schools. “This is the first year for this program that we put together to work to have more student connections among all of our district schools by having the high school athletes visit, talk with and work with the elementary school students,” said Paul Evans, Englewood High School athletic director. “We also wanted to provide our student athletes with leadership opportunities. We work to try to teach them how to be leaders, and this program provides the chance for these young men and women to
put what they learned into practice.” The student athletes were divided into four groups, with each bus going to a different elementary school. John Gutierrez, Pirates soccer player, was among the athletes who visited Clayton Elementary School. He fielded questions from fifth-graders that included how much homework he got each night and what lunches were like at the high school. In another classroom, Chad Glover was working with the sixth-graders in Cynthye Woody’s class. “This is a great opportunity for us to talk to kids about academics and athletics and hopefully inspire these boys and girls to work harder in class and to get involved in athletics while they are still in elementary school,” the cross country runner said. “These sixth-graders are eager to learn and I have had fun working with them.” Mentors continues on Page 10

TriCity Academy representatives explained details of their plans for a charter school that they want to establish for Englewood students at a Sept. 16 informational meeting. Patty Hanarahan, assistant superintendent of Englewood Public Schools, moderated the meeting. Eight academy representatives attended, and the presentation was done by Denise and Luke Mund Denise Mund, a member of the charter school board, also is president of Delta Schools, a newly formed nonprofit “incubation” organization that helps charter school get established. She gave a brief introduction and turned the presentation over to fellow board member Luke Mund. He said the desire to establish a charter school to offer area students a school of choice. He also said the goal is to serve the area so Englewood students stay in the community and go to school in Englewood. He cited census data showing there were 3,750 school-age children in Englewood but Englewood school enrollment was only 2,835 which meant 915 Englewood children are going to school in other districts or they are being home-schooled. “We proposed to open our school with 405 students, but we don’t want to take students out of Englewood classrooms,” he said. “We want to attract students who are now going to school in other districts and we want to provide a charter school where students on charter school waiting lists can go.” Denise Mund said the school will use a core knowledge curriculum and plans to use technology to address a wide variety of learning styles. “We will expect high achievements from our students and from our staff,” she said. “We also will encourage voluntary parent involvement in our school and its programs.” She said literacy and math will be the focus, with students spending 100 minutes a day on literacy and 100 minutes a day on math. She added that the program will be blended learning, which will teach literacy and math as elements of other subjects such as social studies, art and music. “We have been talking to a lot of families in northeast Englewood, the area called the hill,” she said. “We also have been looking at a building in that area we feel would provide the space our school will need.” Later in the presentation, in answering frequently asked questions, she said that students would have to wear uniforms and the school would not be able to provide bus service. The meeting included time for questions and comments from the audience, but no one presented a question or made a comment about the presentation.

District approves stadium makeover School board gives go-ahead to rebuild track, north stands By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com District officials say things will look much the same but will be a lot better as a result of plans for a major overhaul of Englewood High School Stadium, which was unanimously approved by the school board during the Sept. 16 special meeting. Brian Ewert, school superintendent, said safety concerns about the large cracks in the running track and potential structural problems with the stands made it necessary to address the issue immediately. He said another factor in the decision to do the project now was a lower cost because the contractor for the new campus project will do the stadium work and already has equipment and crews on site. The Sept. 16 discussion focused on the configuration of the north stands and projected costs for each of four configuration options. In general, board members wanted to see seating in the north stands for 2,300 people as it is now. Board member Vickie Howard said restoring the stands as they are now is planning for the future when the number of students on the new campus grows. Kevin Ebert agreed. “Building the new north stands to the same configuration they are now is the right thing to do,” the board member said. “It would be a little less costly to build smaller stands now. But I feel we need to build to seat 2,300 now. It is the right thing for us to do.” That project would cost about $378,000. When the stadium makeover costs are added to the costs of installing the new track and terracing the slopes on the south side of the stadium, the total project is estimated to cost about $761,000. Ewert said the school district has $488,000 in the capital projects fund for track replacement and other stadium work. The additional cost of about $270,000 would come from the general fund, most
Plans are to remove the existing track and demolish and rebuild these north stands and pressbox as part of the makeover of the Englewood High School Stadium. The school board gave approval to begin the project but the details of the configuration and number of seats in the new north stands will be decided later this month. Photo by Tom Munds likely from the unallocated reserves. The discussion included a request to get additional bids on rebuilding the north stands. But, to move the project forward, the board unanimously approved the stadium project with maximum funding of $776,000. The total stadium project will terrace the slopes adjacent to the south stands, replace the track plus demolish and rebuild the north stands and press box. Before voting the school board looked at costs for four configuration options for the north stands. All options were for stands 15 rows high but with length of stands varying so there would be seating for 2,000, 1,800 and 1,600. The cost for stands as they are now was the most expensive and would cover the 100-

yard length of the field. The other three options would be 15 rows high but the stands would be shorter. For example, stands with 2,000 seats would be about 80 yards long. The board unanimous decision was to allocate funds for the stadium makeover, including north stands seating for 2,300 allows the work to begin. Donovan Nolan, district project manager, said expectations are crews are to begin north stands demolitions the week of Sept. 22. “Demolition of the north stands will be done first so the contractor can reclaim the dirt under those stands,” Nolan said. “The demolition will take a week or so but then that north stands area will remain idle for a month or so all the procedures can be completed to obtain the state permits needed
to install the new stands.” However, work to install the retaining walls and terracing on the slopes adjacent to the south stands will begin in early October. The demolition of the north stands means seating for fans of both teams at the Oct. 3 homecoming game will be in the south stands. Nolan said there is early discussion about bringing in some temporary bleachers for that game. “When the project is done, the stadium will look pretty much as it does now but the new track eliminates the safety hazard that exists on the track now,” Nolan said. “The project will make the north stands fully handicap accessible, the stands and the press box structurally sound and they will look a lot better than they do today.”

Campus construction on schedule Framework depicts how school will look upon completion By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Crews daily move forward with construction of the seventh- through 12th-grade campus that is being built on the Englewood High School site. The framework is up and being filled in on the portion of the building that will be the front of the school and crews recently completed paving and striping the parking lot that will be in front of the building when it is completed just before the end of the year. “The project is pushing along with the goal still to have construction basically completed so teachers can move into the new classrooms over the winter break in late December,” said Donovan Nolan, project manager. “The outside framework for the building is basically completed. But, we still have about 100 people working on the project. So, as you can imagine, there is a lot of work going on inside the buildings.” Work began on phase one of the project in 2012. Phase one included demolition of the pool, the Lowell Building and the shops to create the space for construction of what will become the middle-school facility on the north end of the site. The phase also included construction of most of the common areas like science labs, which, when the project is completed, will be used by both high-school and middle-school students. Phase one involved construction of about 65 percent of the project and was completed in November 2013 and was done in time for
The framework is up and shows the general shape of what will become the main entrance to the seventh- through 12th-grade Englewood campus. The makeover of the Englewood High School area began in 2012 and is scheduled to be completed in December so high school and middle school teachers can move into their new classrooms over the winter break. Photo by Tom Munds high school teachers to move into the newly completed building over Thanksgiving break. Phase two will complete the campus transformation at an estimated cost of about $40 million. The project was made possible because voters gave the district approval to sell bonds and the district also received a state grant.
The project goal is to replace the existing school with a new, state-of-the-art facility for seventh- through 12th-graders. Also, the project included major renovation of Englewood Middle School, so when middleschool students move to the new campus, Colorado’s Finest Alternative High School will move into the current middle-school facility.

Leads group celebrates longevity Business owners share sales tips, friendship By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com In the comfortable manner of longtime acquaintances, the men and women greet one another with warm smiles, swapping updates on family members, sharing stories of their summer vacations. But the twice-monthly morning gathering of The Team at the Greenwood Village City Hall is all in the name of business — and helping others find business. The Team is a leads group. Built on a foundation of trust, familiarity and a sense of obligation, the group’s intent is to help its members succeed in business by providing solid sales tip to one another. What makes the south metro-based group unique is its longevity. Founder Frank Zieg, a Lone Tree Realtor, held the first meeting of the then-unnamed group of four in 1987. Today, more than 60 people are on the roster. “In hindsight, I probably should have franchised it,” Zieg said. “There are a lot of other leads groups that have come and gone since I started this one.” Zieg belonged to a national leads organization called Le Tip before deciding to start The Team.

Like Le Tip and BNI International, The Team is limited to one person from each line of business, a rule that prevents competition among members. The Team’s annual dues are $75, much less than most other leads groups. That means there are no morning buffets or continental breakfasts. Most mornings, you won’t find as much as a box of grocery-store doughnuts or pot of coffee in the room. Zieg throws a party at Christmas and another during the summer. The rest of the money is used for printing lead forms and other miscellaneous costs. “I keep it pretty lean so we do have enough money to do a couple nice parties,” he said. “Occasionally we’ll bring in some food for the heck of it.” The bare-bones nature of the group is part of the allure for Team members, many of whom left other leads groups to join Zieg’s. “They didn’t like the format or expense, or there was too much pressure on them to bring leads,” Zieg said. “Here, it’s kind of what you do with it. The idea is to come in, have a good reciprocity type of relationship and try to get people leads. “I get 20 to 25 percent of my real estate business out of the group. So it’s worthwhile.” Group members include three attorneys — all specializing in different areas of the law — a skin-care specialist, dentist, mortgage consultant, flooring specialist and photographer, among others. They not only pass leads, but credit one another for doing so. During the Sept. 4 meeting, a windows and siding salesman hands another Team member a $500 check; it’s his company’s policy to award a percentage of a sale to anyone who gives a solid lead. Others pass on verbal kudos. “I walk in the door and (counselor) Jim Sharon hands me two leads,” said David Geras, CEO of GoldLeaf Care Givers. “This is a great place to spend Thursday morning.” Counselors Jim and Ruth Sharon invite Team members to a book-release celebration for their co-authored “Secrets of a
Therapist Ruth Sharon talks with members of The Team leads group about the book she co-authored with her husband Jim, right, during the group’s Sept. 4 meeting at the Greenwood Village City Hall. Photo by Jane Reuter Soulful Marriage.” “We’ve gotten a couple of referrals for counseling, and even counseled some of the people that are in here,” Jim Sharon said. “We’re good at giving leads, and we work with some of these people directly to provide services for us.” While the focus is on sales, the years also have created bonds among the group. When Valerie Ness of Summit Careers stands during the Sept. 4 meeting, it’s not to offer credit for or pass along a lead — it’s to give thanks. Ness recently spent three weeks in the hospital. “I have never been so touched by the generosity of this group,” she said. Relationships are among the keys to The Team’s success. And building them requires regular attendance. “I get after people if they miss a meeting,” Zieg said. “Otherwise, people are just going to forget about you. You’ve got to show up. And you’ve got to be a leads giver.”

City fountain turns for breast cancer awareness Chamber-sponsored events raise funds for victims By Tom Munds
Make a Lasting Impact in the Lives of Many Be a Hospice Volunteer
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com The pink water shooting skyward from the city fountain and the Oct. 2 “Busted in Colorado” artists and models reception are part of the Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce activities designed to increase breast cancer awareness. The pink jets of water from the fountain are visible to all coming to the Englewood Civic Center. The chamber awareness effort continues when artists, models and guests gather from 5 to 9 p.m. Oct. 2 in the retail locations across from the Englewood Civic Center at 1000 Englewood Parkway for the reception. The event is held to display the artwork and to raise money for Sense of Security, an organization that assists patients battling breast cancer with expenses such as rent, utilities and groceries. Donations for Sense of Security are accepted during the reception plus there will be a silent auction. In the last two years, the event raised about $23,000. “Busted in Colorado” is part of an annual event called Breasts of Colorado. For the event, models volunteer to have plaster casts made of their chests. An artist adopts a casting and, after talking with the model, makes the casting a work of art. Rosemarie Cabral, co-owner of Cuttn’ It Loose Salon, led the effort to get the event started in Englewood. This marks the third year she has headed the event. The reception on Oct. 2 will include having all 22 casting artworks on display at Cuttn’ It Loose Salon located at 901 Englewood Parkway unit 106. The Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce annually spearheads events in the city to promote breast cancer awareness.
H C R . P : • Playing games • Social Interaction • Companionship • Helping with household duties • Pet Therapy • Listening to Music • Watching TV/movie • Office assistance/staff support • Special projects (education, crafts, community involvement) Volunteering is a blessing that enriches the lives of both patients and volunteers, the experience is often immensely rewarding for both. Englewood’s fountain turns pink each year as part of the Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce activities to promote breast cancer awareness. The event includes the Oct. 2 fundraiser for Sense of Security, an organization that helps breast cancer patients pay for expenses such as rent, groceries and utility bills. Photo by Tom Munds One of the most visible efforts is the pink water spraying skyward from the fountain at the Englewood Civic Center. The fountain turns pink each year from mid-September until the end of October. In October, breast cancer awareness month, chamber volunteers also will tie pink ribbons around about 300 trees in the area during plus the chamber urges all local merchants to back the event with pink decorations at their businesses.
A person on hospice care is nearing the end of life however still desires social interaction and meaningful relationships. Whether at home or in an extended care facility, you might just sit and talk, play cards, sing together, go for a walk in the garden, or play an instrument for the patient. The amount of time spent volunteering depends on you. Opportunities range from 30 minutes a month to several hours a week.

Rivals differ on battle over gay marriage Both Cynthia Coffman and Don Quick say their positions on how to handle gaymarriage court battles are in the best interest of same-sex couples who are seeking nuptials. The two candidates for attorney general discussed gay marriage and other topics during recent, separate sit-down interviews with Colorado Community Media. Coffman, a Republican deputy attorney general, and Quick, a Democrat and former Adams County district attorney, are locked in a key down-ticket race. Coffman, who is married to U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman, touts her experience in state government and knowledge of office operations as reasons for voters to support her candidacy. For his part, Quick, a Wheat Ridge native, boasts of his record as Adams County DA, including his prosecution of government corruption among officials there. The race is one of the most closely watched attorney general’s races in the country, with millions of campaign dollars having come in from outside donors. But, all of that aside, the race could come down to gay marriage. “There is no constitutional defense for treating gay and lesbian couples differently,” Quick said. “There are no second-class citizens.” But Coffman said Quick’s personal feelings about gay marriage have nothing to do with the role the attorney general plays
Former sheriff on to next adventure Grayson Robinson steps up to help straighten out Denver By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com When former Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson left office in February, he admitted he wasn’t ready for a traditional retirement. “I’ve got one really good adventure left in me,” he said at the time. “But I don’t know yet what it is going to be.” As it turns out, that adventure is a huge one — he’s tackling the 150-case backRobinson log in the beleaguered Denver Sheriff’s Office’s Internal Affairs Bureau. He’s now under contract to lead the bureau on an interim basis for up to 12 months, with help from seven new on-call investigators. “We are excited to work with Sheriff Robinson and to benefit from his vast experience and proven track record as a motivational and results-oriented leader,” Stephanie O’Malley, executive director of Denver’s department of public safety, said in a news release. “It is imperative we resolve the roughly 150 pending internal affairs cases, and Sheriff Robinson
will help achieve that.” O’Malley herself has only been on the job since January, and Elias Diggins, interim sheriff, has only been running that department since July 21, when former Sheriff Gary Wilson stepped down. That’s the day Mayor Michael Hancock announced he was taking steps to “strengthen protocols for impropriety from deputies as well as advance a culture of accountability within the department.” The Denver Sheriff’s Office had been barraged with allegations of abuse, and settled one $3.25 million case in which an inmate said he was choked by a deputy. “The public’s trust in the department has been shaken, and that is simply unacceptable,” wrote Hancock in the announcement. “We are taking action to address a number of incidents that have occurred and to rebuild confidence in the department by raising the bar of accountability among the sheriff’s deputies who serve honorably every day.” Robinson is a graduate of the 135th Session of the FBI National Academy, the 52nd Session of the FBI Law Enforcement Executive Development Seminar, the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard State and Local Executives Program, the National Sheriff’s Institute, the University of Colorado Law Enforcement Executive Program and the University of Denver Public Safety Leadership Institute.
Critics have said Suthers is delaying the inevitability of gay marriage. But Coffman believes her boss is doing the right thing — and that she would follow his path on his handling of this issue. Coffman said Suthers’ recent filing with the Supreme Court will end up fast-tracking the case toward a quicker resolution. When asked if one could make the argument that Suthers’ handling of the case is actually in the best interest of gay couples, because it could get the issue to the Supreme Court more quickly, Coffman said, “Yes, absolutely. I believe that.” But Quick doesn’t see how continuing to fight against gay marriage in court is helping samesex couples realize their dreams of marriage equalQuick ity. “I think for a large segment of society, not just gay and lesbian couples, but for people who have family members that are gay and lesbian couples,” it means they have to wait even longer, he said. Quick dismisses arguments against gay marriage that have nothing to do with the Constitution, especially those that cite procreation as a reason to prevent gays from getting married. “John Suthers hasn’t procreated in 30 years and I haven’t in over 20 years, but somehow I think our wives both think our marriages have value and they’re important,” Quick said. But Coffman said that perhaps Quick doesn’t understand that the role of the Attorney General’s Office is to defend the state’s laws, regardless of whether he likes
them. “(U.S. Attorney General) Eric Holder has been the poster child of picking and choosing what laws to defend,” she said. “I think he has violated his oath to defend the Constitution of the United States by picking and choosing. And to me, what Don is suggesting is the same thing: `I’m going to decide what is constitutional or not.’” Coffman said Quick forgets that Suthers took heat from conservative groups when his office filed a discrimination complaint against a Lakewood baker who refused to make a wedding cake for a gay couple. Suthers’ office also defended the state’s recent Democrat-sponsored gun-control laws in a court battle this year. Quick has also been critical of Suthers for joining several other attorneys general in opposing the Affordable Care Act’s birthcontrol mandate — the “Hobby Lobby” case that succeeded at the Supreme Court. Quick said he “strongly believes that a woman should make her health care decisions.” But Coffman finds those arguments offensive. “We have birth control available to women, abortion is available, and to consistently try to be deceptive and inflame women on those issues, I just think it’s politics. It’s irresponsible,” Coffman said. But Quick thinks that Coffman is the one who doesn’t have a grip on what the job of attorney general is all about. He believes that an attorney general has a duty to challenge a law if he or she “has grave doubts about constitutionality of the law.” “I’ll defend laws whether I agree or disagree, but if there is an intentional targeting of a group denying them a fundamental right, then I will not defend that law,” he said.

in this issue. “I have a personal opinion about the issue, which I’m not going to share because to me, my personal opinion doesn’t matter,” she said. Current Attorney General John Suthers, a Republican who is term-limited, has defended the state’s 2006 gay marriage ban in court battles that reached new heights over the summer. In June, the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals — which has jurisdiction over Colorado cases — ruled Utah’s gay marriage ban to be unconstitutional. However, the court stayed its decision, knowing that the case would ultimately be decided by the Supreme Court. The court’s stay didn’t stop the county clerk Coffman in Boulder from issuing same-sex marriage licenses. Shortly thereafter, a state district court judge in Adams County ruled in a separate case that Colorado’s gay marriage ban is also unconstitutional. That judge also issued a stay in the decision. Despite calls from gay lawmakers and Gov. John Hickenlooper not to appeal the Adams County ruling, Suthers has taken the case to the Colorado Supreme Court. And, along the way, Suthers has waged a court battle with the Boulder County Clerk’s Office in an effort to stop it from issuing more same-sex marriage licenses. Most recently, Suthers led a group of 17 attorneys general asking the Supreme Court to take up arguments on same-sex marriage bans in Utah and Oklahoma.

If you want to get it, you’ve got to give it Before we know it, the holiday season will be upon us, and our spirit of giving will increase. We will think about the gifts that we will purchase, wrap, and give to our closest family members and friends, and we will think about giving through the many outreach programs, such as selecting a random person or family from a giving tree at church or at work. It has been said that if we are feeling low or our morale is down, the best way to pick up our own spirits is to look for ways to help someone else. I know this works because I have practiced it many times myself. Anyone who has been financially blessed can easily write a check and make a donation, and believe me, the charities all need cash. But it is when we donate our time that we make a difference both for others and within ourselves. I would like to accomplish two things in this week’s column. First, I want to introduce you to Elizabeth Billups. Elizabeth has a wonderful gift and mission in her heart to help others. She is the author of the book “The Carry Crew Concept: How to Build Crews to Carry People in Hard Times.” The book is remarkable, but her intent is even more incredible. I would like to share a little bit more about her concept through an article she has recently written, called “Help Yourself by Helping Others”: There’s nothing quite like visiting a friend who can’t breathe, eat, walk or talk on his own to help you value your own life. I have a friend who suffered from ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. I met him and his wife while he was at the early stages of this debilitating disease. Fortunately, they trusted me enough
to let me join them on their journey for the next five years until sadly he passed away. During this time, I managed an amazing group of about 25 to 40 people who supported this couple and their two young kids by delivering meals, purchasing groceries, mowing the yard, cleaning the house and much more. People looking at my involvement in this family’s struggle may get the mistaken idea that it was I who was only helping them. When in reality, every encounter with them reminded me how healthy and lucky I was. So like I said, people may think it was I who was helping them. But my family knows the truth. Experiencing this trauma alongside our friends was extremely difficult. But it was also an experience that reminded us daily that struggles that may seem insurmountable when looked at on their own were actually, by comparison with my friend’s struggle with ALS, small road bumps on the journey of real life. And thank God for the journey. As you know, we truly could not appreciate the mountaintop views if we never traveled through the dark valleys. If you know a family that needs support, whether it is a debilitating disease or illness,
Laugh and the words laugh with you The news out of Florida this morning is horrific. I have to move away from it. I can do that in a number of ways. This is one of them: writing. Others might meditate, pray, drink, smoke dope, walk, run, shop, eat, or schedule therapy. Writing does it for me. Now if I were to write about what happened in Florida, I would be stuck in it. But I can write almost anything else, and my responsibilities in writing will take over. I have been reading some quotes about writing: Charles Bukowski’s, Mark Twain’s. Vladimir Nabokov’s. Bukowski said, “You either get it down on paper, or jump off a bridge.” I came across Bukowski when everyone else does, when I was in college. At the time he was welcome, and he still is. Each of us is an odd union of tens of thousands of things that we have seen, read, and felt. I sift constantly. What may have moved me in college might not now. But some of those attachments are still attaching themselves.
Bukowski said, “We’re all going to die, what a circus! That alone should make us love each other but it doesn’t. We are all terrorized and flattened by trivialities, we are eaten up by nothing.” If you don’t know him and decide to look him up, please know beforehand that his writing goes into a lot of dark corners. If that is true, why mention him on a day when there is horrific news out of Florida? Maybe because I don’t need to see daffodils to improve my day, or to re-read Psalm 27:4, or drink. Bukowski, an alcoholic, said, “That’s the problem with drinking, I thought, as I Marshall continues on Page 9
or maybe just a hard-luck story of lengthy unemployment, you should read Elizabeth’s book, “The Carry Crew.” The second way to feel good about yourself by helping others comes from the “We Don’t Waste” program. You can check them out online at www.wedontwaste.org. Basically, the idea is to gather all the unused food and products from local cooperating providers, which is then distributed to local shelters and food banks for distribution. I have volunteered twice to collect the uneaten food from the sky boxes at Sports Authority Field at Mile High. A team of about 20 people assembled after the game and collected enough food for more than 5,000 servings. I was simply amazed at the aggregate collection of prime rib, roast beef, chicken, ribs, hot dogs, hamburgers, sausage and desserts that were left behind. A special thank-you to Andrea and Bruce Kirchhoff and St. Luke’s United Methodist Church for all you do for this program. Need a “pick-me-up”? Look for ways to help someone else and I can assure you that your talents and gifts will shine through and be greatly appreciated. I am also pretty sure that what you get in return will pale in comparison to what you actually give. I would love to hear all about the charities and missions you support at gotonorton@gmail. com, and when we lift others up, it truly will be a better than good week.

Local volunteers help the homeless Littleton ministry outreach sets up at downtown business By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Music, laughter and the sound of people helping people replaced the normal quiet Sept. 20 around Black Bear Construction Services in the 500 block of Lipan Street in Englewood during the Free Spirit Ministries-sponsored outreach to the homeless. “I was fortunate to meet Robb Sterling, general manager of Black Bear, and he agreed to partner with us for this outreach,” Gary Smith of Littleton’s Free Spirit Ministries said. “There are a lot of homeless people in this area so we decided to try to set up on the Black Bear property for a one-day outreach to try distribute coats and clothes plus provide a free lunch. We also talk to each individual and will offer spiritual help if asked.” Sterling said employee Jack Wilson told him about the work of Free Spirit Ministries. “Jack talked about the ministry’s outreach to the homeless around Christmas and how many people it touched. He suggested Free Spirit set up on our company property for a one-day outreach to all the homeless people who are around our area,” the Centennial resident said. “I agreed because I wanted to give back, to help people who might need a hand.” Canopies were set up on one side of the street so volunteers could put out a wide variety of clothes free for the taking and where they could offer hygiene packets to any of the more than 100 people who stopped by the outreach. Greg Lawson picked up a pair of socks, took a hygiene packet and found a coat that fit him perfectly. “This is a wonderful thing for these people to do and it really helps me a lot,” he said. “I am struggling a bit right now because I came to the Denver area about three weeks ago because I heard I could get work. I want to work but so far, I haven’t

poured myself a drink. If something bad happens you drink in an attempt to forget; if something good happens you drink in order to celebrate; and if nothing happens you drink to make something happen.” If you have a writer in the family, or a friend who is a writer, encourage them. It is constructive, and it is a way out. And it is a way on a day like this, when there is bad news coming out of Florida, to improve the day and to renew yourself, to upgrade your seat assignment. Humor helps too. I have a sense of humor, although you wouldn’t know it by reading the first 400 words. Humorists need mentors, plump ones. Mine were. Some who were not include Lucille Ball.

There were canopies to provide shade over the tables lined with chairs so the guests could sit down to eat lunch. The Sept. 20 event was the first outreach at the Black Bear location but Smith said he feels there will be future outreach projects at the same location. Smith said he devotes his time to reaching out to try to help the homeless because he feels that is what he is called to do. “I was homeless for about 20 years. I had some rough times and later I had a problem with alcohol. So I was homeless and just slept anywhere I could find a dry spot that was fairly warm,” he said. “Thanks to God, I finally got my life back together and I felt God called me to start Free Spirit Ministries with a focus on helping the homeless.” He said he met people from Living Branch Church in Englewood, and they put him in touch with others who wanted to

I looked down back then, not up, and never into someone’s eyes. Now I will look directly at you. And in my mind, I am saying, “Let’s talk.” Let’s make sense together, or let’s make nonsense together.

Praise the Lord, and send me your Visa card number. I am safely out of Florida now. I have had to look up words and to correctly quote Charles Bukowski, which took me back to a beige 1965 Volkswagen.

Treasurer’s race features big names By Vic Vela vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Two candidates with good name recognition are seeking a job as part of a down-ticket ballot race that isn’t getting the same kind of attention as other statewide contests. “It doesn’t get talked about compared to the congressional races, but the state treasurer is an important job,” said former Congresswoman Betsy Markey, the Democratic candidate. To succeed, Markey will have to take down current Treasurer Walker Stapleton. Stapleton is the great-grandson of former Denver Mayor Craig Roberts Stapleton and is related to the Bush dynasty that has produced two U.S. presidents. But Stapleton said what he’s accomplished as treasurer has little to do with his family ties. “I think I’ve proven that I have a track record of keeping my head down and working for Colorado,” he said. “My message has resonated with the people of Colorado.” The state treasurer oversees billions of dollars in state investments and also sits on the board of the Public Employee Retirement Association, among other
duties. Stapleton has held the seat since 2010, after he defeated incumbent Democrat Cary Kennedy in a tight race. He believes voters will reward the accomplishments of his first term. He backed policies that consolidated debt and refinanced the state’s unemployment insurance system. He also touts the treasurer’s office-backed legislation that carried with it overwhelming biStapleton partisan support at the Legislature. “My perspective when I ran for office was when you get an opportunity to deal with economic policy issues, you have an opportunity to cross political alliances,” he said. Markey served in Congress from 2009-2011, representing the state’s 4th Congressional District before losing her re-election bid to current Rep. Cory Gardner. Following her loss to Gardner, Markey worked for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. She also has experience in finance, having worked as a budget analyst for the Department of Trea-
sury. “You’re working with the state legislature to promote economic development in the state, manage investments wisely and pay bills on time,” Markey said of the role of the state treasurer. “It’s an opportunity to work with legislators and the private sector to make sure were getting the best from our investments.”
Markey
PERA divides rivals
Markey and Stapleton have much different views on one key area — the handling of the state’s PERA fund. Stapleton has made PERA reform his chief cause since taking office four years ago and he has been critical of PERA for maintaining about $26 billion in unfunded liabilities. “That’s a figure that’s a staggering amount of money,” he said. “That’s larger than Colorado’s entire budget in any given year.” Stapleton tried to see how much money the state pays out to its top 20 percent of benefit recipients by filing a lawsuit seeking that information — an effort
that was supported by Gov. John Hickenlooper. However, the Colorado Supreme Court declined to hear the lawsuit, on the heels of a 2013 Court of Appeals decision that ruled that Stapleton could not have unfettered access to records. Markey said the failed suit is an example of Stapleton being too focused on one issue. “I haven’t seen him focus on anything other than PERA, quite frankly,” Markey said. “I don’t think you should use the state’s retirement plan as a political football. If you think there are structural problems in the program, then bring it to the Legislature.” Markey said the state’s retirement system is in good shape. She points to 2010 bipartisan legislation that sought to shore up PERA by making changes to the state’s retirement age and also reformed employee/employer contributions. But Stapleton insists that the current PERA system is unsustainable and that the state needs a fiscally sound treasurer to stay on top it. “It’s easy to whistle a happy tune while walking past the graveyard,” he said. “We will have a math problem in this state, sooner or later.”
ENGLEWOOD CRIME REPORT Fire injures woman
A Sept. 22 fire in the 4500 block of South Broadway sent a 50-year-old woman to the hospital for treatment of burns to her face. The fire was reported about 7:45 a.m. Police officers and firefighters went to the address. The injured woman met them and firefighters took her to Swedish Medical Center but she later was transferred to University Hospital for treatment of the facial burns. According to the report, officers talked to a 54-year-old man who is the injured woman’s roommate. The man told officers he was taking a shower when he heard screaming and the woman banging on the bathroom door. He said he opened the door and saw the bed was on fire and the woman had burns on her face. He called 911 and reported the fire. The report said, according to the

There were about 15 people in the audience and the majority were Englewood School District personnel. “It was not a big turnout people interested in seeing a charter school in Englewood for the Sept. 16 meeting, but that isn’t a big concern,” Denise Mund said in a Sept. 23 phone conversation. “Many of

Fingerprints lead to wanted man A shoplifter gave police false names but fingerprints provide the information that five felony warrants had been issued for the man’s arrest. Englewood police were called about 5:55 p.m. Sept. 18 by employees of a store in the 600 block of Englewood Parkway reporting they were holding a shoplifter. Officers talked to the 39-year-old suspect, who gave them a false name and date of birth. The suspect was arrested, taken to Englewood Police Department, where he was fingerprinted.

Englewood police investigated a report of a shoplifter fighting with employees and, when the suspect was arrested, officers found he also was carrying drugs and drug paraphernalia. Police were called about the alleged shoplifter fighting with store employees about 6:40 p.m. Sept. 15. When officers arrived at the business in the 400 block of Englewood Parkway, they found two
people fighting on the ground. One turned out to be the 25-year-old shoplifting suspect and the other individual was a store employee. Police arrested the shoplifting suspect. Witnesses told officers that, during the disturbance, the suspect had pushed a female store employee into a metal bar. She reportedly suffered bruises and pain from the impact. Police arrested the 25-year-old without incident. Searching an individual who has been arrested is standard procedure. During the search of the 25-year-ol., officers found he was carrying methamphetamine and heroin as well as several drug paraphernalia items The man was taken to the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Detention Facility and he could face a variety of charges related to this incident.
ton School District. The charter school proponents want to open the academy — a free public school of choice — in August 2015. There are currently charter schools in Littleton but none in Sheridan or Englewood. State rules require the application for a charter to be submitted to the host school board by Aug. 1. The school district then reviews the proposal and is required to make the decision whether or not to grant the charter within 90 days. Hanrahan said at the Sept. 16 meeting that the district had received the application Aug. 1. The application is being
reviewed by board members and district staff, and is being evaluated by an outside organization hired by the district. The Sept. 16 meeting is among the public meetings that will be held in Englewood regarding the charter application. There will be another meeting at 6 p.m. Oct. 14. On Oct. 21 at 6 p.m., the academy team will meet with the district accountability committee to discuss the academy application, and on Oct. 28, the school board will make the decision whether or not to grant the charter.

The information came back with the man’s real name, date of birth and the fact five warrants had been issued for his arrest, He was taken to the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Detention Facility on his warrants plus he could face additional charges related to the shoplifting and providing false information to the police.

He said he learned a lot he can use when the high school students are issued iPads later this year. “I am pretty good with technology, but these kids are teaching me a lot about the iPad software and operations,” he said. “I guess this is a case of the elementary
school students teaching high school students about technology.” The athletic director evaluated the day’s activities and said the program went well. “We had enough student athletes so there was at least one of our kids in every elementary classroom,” Evans said after the event was completed. “The young men and women I talked to said it was a good experience for them. Generally, they said they liked being in the elementary school classroom and getting to talk and work with the students. I think this is a good program for the high school students and for the elementary school students. We will try to put together a visit like this during each of the sports seasons here at the high school.”

Chinese process explored in Centennial exhibit By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com “Hope has two beautiful daughters — their names are anger and courage; anger at the way things are, and courage to see that they do not remain the way they are.” — St. Augustine Shelly Au writes that he spent 17 years living in Asia. He has worked for a nonprofit organization where he has been drawn to tell stories of the people he met through photography, as well as organizing benefits for “less fortunate communities.” Three recent years were spent documenting the destruction that resulted when rapid economic development was a primary Chinese goal. “In cities throughout China, countless buildings have been marked, in red, with an eight-stroke Chinese character pronounced `chai.’” It means destroy or take down. He writes that his documentary collection of photos, on exhibit through September at Solid Grounds Coffee House, 6504 S. Broadway, Centennial, is “both a study of this merciless process and a meditation on the pain and anger of the millions of Chinese people it has
Wild horses couldn’t drag me away from the Sept. 17 opening of Odysseo, the new multimedia horse, of course, extravaganza under the big top at the Pepsi Center parking lot. Despite my ever-tightening chest, an indication of how allergic I am to the magnificent creatures, I stayed the course until the last hoof had left the building. The show opened to a crowd of 2,000 who — judging by the standing ovation at the end — were blown away by the blend of equestrian arts, performing arts and high-tech theatrical effects. Sharing the colossal stage with 46 riders, acrobats, aerialists and musicians, the 62 horses stole the spotlight during this blend of equine ballet and old-fashioned rodeo tricks. The opening night also marked Odysseo’s 700th show since the inception of this equine spectacular in 2011. “The entire troupe and myself felt a very warm welcome from the Denver audience”, said Normand Latourelle, Cavalia’s founder and artistic director. “With more than 1 million spectators having been touched by the beauty and majesty of Odysseo since the beginning of this colossal adventure, we are proud to finally present this feel-good show to Denver.” Odysseo offers evening and matinee performances through Oct. 5. Tickets are available at www.cavalia.net or by calling 866-999-8111.

The exhibit opened on Sept. 15 with a gathering of people who heard opening commentary by Au and his wife, Amy, about their experiences. They then, with help from friends, divided the audience into small groups to walk through the exhibit, which is divided into five units: “Marked for Destruc-

tion,” “Life in Chaos,” “Life and Darkness,” “New Life Emerging” and “Beauty in Brokenness.” At each stop, there were discussion questions for viewers: How did photos make them think or feel? How might they be inclined to respond? Do they think of a time when they were powerless to respond? What form does chaos take in your life right now? Are there colors you associate with chaos? There are signs of hope in the section called “New Life Emerging,” with the question: “What stands out the most — signs of life or brokenness?” The final grouping, “Beauty in Brokenness” looks more at pleasing patterns and textures that result from brokenness. “Are you more relieved or disturbed by the idea that brokenness is often paired with beauty?” While the collection of 24 photos was lined up in the side room at Solid Grounds to facilitate discussion, the works will be individually hung around the coffee house through September, Au said. See them as art and as penetrating social commentary. Solid Grounds is open daily into the evening. One might enjoy a special coffee of tea while looking.
New this year, LoDo Sips, a walking tour of Historic Lower Downtown Denver while tasting samples from taverns and bars, has replaced LoDo Bites.

Rocky mascot debuts burger
Hard Rock Cafe Denver, in the Denver Pavilions on the 16th Street Mall, pays homage to Denver Nuggets’ mascot Rocky with The Rocky Burger. Created by Rocky himself, the burger is crafted with a brioche bun; two four-ounce burger patties, made of premium ground beef and brisket; two slices of pepper jack cheese; a fried egg; two strips of bacon and buttermilk fried onion strings. The Rocky Burger is served with french fries and a house-made Skittles-infused tangy barbecue sauce for dunking, as Skittles are Rocky’s favorite snack. This burger will be available at Hard Rock Cafe Denver exclusively, for a limited time. A portion of the proceeds from the $13.95 burger will be donated to Special Olympics Colorado Project UNIFY. “We are excited to partner with Rocky and the Denver Nuggets to support the Special Olympics Colorado Project UNIFY,” said Sean Finney, general manager of Hard Rock Cafe Denver. “The Rocky Burger, along with its special `dunking’ sauce, is not only delicious, but also a great way to support a very deserving cause.”

Pirates launch homecoming week Highlights include parade, football game on Oct. 3 By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com The Pirates are poised for a busy week filled with homecoming-related activities and events. A big day for students and alumni is Oct. 3 with the parade in the afternoon and the homecoming football game against Vista Peak in the Englewood High School Stadium at 7 p.m. Before the Pirate-Vista Peak game time rolls around, there will be many activities most days for students at school during lunch. Also, many students will go after school to work on the floats for the parade. The stadium will be the location for
the Oct. 1 Powder Puff Game. The powder puff game is flag football, as the girls of the freshman and sophomore classes join forces against a team of juniors and seniors. Since the girls are playing football, it is logical for boys, many of them football players, to don the proper attire, pick up the pompoms and become the cheerleaders. On Oct. 3 there is an assembly introducing the homecoming royalty. Then, not long after lunch, middle school and high school classes end for the day so students can prepare to march in the homecoming parade. It also is time for those who aren’t taking part in the parade to find a good spot to watch it. In keeping with long-standing tradition, the Pirates marching band will lead the parade, stepping off from the starting point at 1:30 p.m. and marching along the same route as last year. The assembly point will be on West
Union Avenue, adjacent to Englewood Middle School, 300 W. Chenango Ave. The bands, floats and marching groups will then proceed north on Delaware and go past Clayton Elementary School before turning east on Tufts Avenue. The parade will cross Broadway, pass Cherrelyn Elementary School and turn north of Logan Street with the parade ending in the student parking lot at Englewood High School. In addition to the Pirate Marching band, the Englewood Middle School band will be in the parade that also features homecoming royalty riding in convertibles as well as floats from the four classes, school clubs, the middle school and the cheerleaders. Just as the day’s light is fading, the focus again shifts to Englewood High School Stadium for the homecoming game against Vista Peak. As the 7 p.m. kickoff approaches, stu-
dents and alumni fill the stands for the game and cheer for the Pirates. Admission is $5 for adults and $4 for students with school identification. For this game, halftime is extended for homecoming as royalty is introduced and culminates with announcement of the names of the two students selected as this year’s homecoming king and queen. After the game, old acquaintances can be renewed as there will be an alumni social in the commons at the high school. All Englewood alumni are invited and the event is free. The week’s activities wrap up with the Oct. 4 homecoming dance. In keeping with tradition, the dance will be held from 7:30 to 11 p.m. in the school commons. Tickets are sold at the commons during the lunch periods.

Littleton artist, historian in spotlight Esquibel carves out traditional religious figures By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com Well before he retired from a federal job, Littleton’s Jose Raul Esquibel had established a second career as a santero (a creator of religious artwork) and historian — which he continues actively today. He considers himself an artist-educator, carves traditional wooden religious figures, and lectures about his work and the history and art of others as well. On Sept. 27, he will begin a two-weekend engagement at the Denver Art Museum’s Sculpture Studio, demonstrating santo carving from noon to 3 p.m. (Also on Sept. 28 and Oct. 4-5.) It’s in the first floor of the Hamilton Building. He notes that admission is free on the first Saturday — Oct. 4. About 15 of his finished santos will be on display in the studio during this period, he says. For 21 years, Esquibel has been a Spanishlanguage guide at the DAM and he frequently conducts tours of the museum’s santo collection on the fourth floor of the North (Ponti) Building — as well as school tours for Spanishspeaking kids. Esquibel is a Littleton native, with family roots in northern New Mexico. He has a bachelor’s degree in history from Regis University and a master’s degree in Latin American history from Georgetown University. A number
of years ago, he pursued graduate work at Hebrew University in Jerusalem. In past years, he has organized a number of area exhibits of santo art and lectured in conjunction with them, as well as at libraries including Littleton’s Bemis Library and Jefferson County’s Columbine branch. The depth of his scholarship is notable. Also on Sept. 27, later in the afternoon, Esquibel will be honored in “Fab 54, Fall Family Festival,” a special community event at St. Gabriel the Archangel Episcopal Churchat 6190 E. Quincy Ave. in Cherry Hills Village. He is honored at the festival because he carved a 4-foot-tall bulto of San Gabriel for the Southwestern-style church in 1997, and it is recognizing its artists. (A bulto is a figure in the round, while a retablo is a flat, bas relief panel. Either is usually painted.) St. Gabriel is the only intentionally Southwestern-style church in the Denver area and includes hand-carved doors, Esquibel said. It has work by other noted santeros including Tomas Burch (Stations of the Cross); Horacio Valdez (large retablo of San Gabriel over the votive candles); and a retablo over the baptismal font by Sister Roberta Westrick. The Sept. 27 event, from 3 to 6 p.m., is a fundraiser for the church, with an admission charge of $15. (Children under 10 free; free babysitting.) In addition to meeting the artists, visitors may enjoy a children’s art workshop with painting and Native American crafts based on stories shared by storytellers, Southwestern finger foods and drinks and live musicians. For information, contact Anne Cosby, acosby10@comcast.net.

“We’re so proud to be celebrating the 40th birthday of Wazee Supper Club,” said Lee Driscoll, Breckenridge-Wynkoop CEO. “With so many new places opening up in Denver, it’s a major celebration to recognize one of the original places that’s been serving Denver for four decades.” Detroit natives Angelo and Jim Karagas founded Wazee Supper Club in 1974, many years before the neighborhood was nicknamed LoDo. The location received a facelift in 2012 and kept the well-known dumbwaiter, nostalgic Frigidaire and black-and-white checkerboard floors. For more information, visit www.wazeesupperclub.com.

Pirates pitch, hit way to win Englewood bats pound out 11 runs in shutout league victory By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Englewood hitters pounded out hits and ran the bases aggressively en route to an 11-0 win over Fort Lupton on Sept. 19, as Brittany Hall threw a complete game, giving up a pair of hits and striking out two. “We hit well against Fort Lupton but we have been hitting well all season,” said Pirates coach Dave Chapman after his team improved to 5-3 in league play. “The hitting consistently has been pretty good. But, in some games, we have struggled in other areas. Against Fort Lupton we did just about everything right and got the win. All league wins are important because, like three or four other teams, we are battling to finish second in the league (for) an automatic spot in the state playoffs.” Englewood has four games left in the regular season, all against league foes. They were home Sept. 23 against Skyview and play their final home game of the season Sept. 26 against Elizabeth, a rescheduled game that was rained out on Sept. 9. The Pirates then close out the season on the road Sept. 30 at Alameda and Oct. 2 at Elizabeth. The Pirates scored runs in every inning on Sept. 19 after starting off the game by retiring Fort Lupton in order in the top of the first inning. Englewood then pushed three runs across the plate in the home half of the opening frame. Up 11-0 after their fourth at-bat, the game ended once Fort Lupton batted in the top of the fifth. Tayler Garibay went 3-for-3 at the plate, collecting a third of the Pirates hits and driving in a run. Maddie Smith had a pair of hits for Englewood and Sage Sherman, Cassandra Wallace, Madison Ostrowski and Kann Bader had one each. Chapman said this year’s team has four returning letter winners and a lot of new players. “We lost one of our returning letter winners when second baseman Emily

Photos by Tom Munds Ragan broke her ankle sliding into second,” the coach said. “Emily is a senior at St. Mary’s and has been with us for four seasons. We miss her on the field but she uses her crutches and comes to every game to cheer for her team.” Ragan said she started playing softball because of her love of baseball. “The summer before I started high school at St. Mary’s I’ll bet I watched 150 baseball games,” she said by phone. “When I got to St. Mary’s they had softball tryouts. I went and we didn’t have enough girls for a team so they told us we could join the Englewood team. I did and I played with the team all four seasons and in the summer.” She said she had never played softball when she joined the Pirates but she has good speed and used the glove well so she started out on JV playing shortstop. “I made varsity as a sophomore and I was the utility infielder,” she said. “SoftSoftball continues on Page 20

Englewood comes up empty on road Pirates open league play with 28-0 loss at Elizabeth By Ryan Boldrey
rboldrey @coloradocommunitymedia.com “You can either feel sorry for yourselves or get better,” Englewood coach Jay Graves told his team after they dropped a 28-0 decision to open Colorado 7 league play on Sept. 19. “We are a family, we stick together — that’s what we do.” The Pirates, who turned the ball over the only two times they penetrated into Elizabeth territory, managed just four first downs on the night, while their defense watched the Cardinals move the chains 21 times. Englewood went three-and-out on five of their eight possessions. “We busted our tail with Elizabeth,” Graves said after his team headed for the showers. “They are a good ball club and we tried to play with them. We don’t have as many numbers. The kids worked hard, they just got banged up a little too much. “We had a little bit of trouble. We made some mistakes, penalties, they’ll hurt you.” Over the course of the ballgame, the Pirates were whistled for 11 penalties for a total of 93 yards — three of those calls were for personal fouls. But whistles weren’t the only thing that stood in the Pirates way at Elizabeth. The two biggest plays of the night, 40and 20-yard pass plays from Sean Bowering to Jakey Wade that both set the Pirates up inside the Elizabeth 30-yard line, were followed up by a Pirate fumble and an in-

Wade’s tackle may have prevented a score, but the Pirates still lost 28-0. Photos by Ryan Boldrey terception toss into the end zone. Each time, the Cardinals marched right down to add to their lead, making it 21-0 and 28-0 respectively. Englewood’s defense stood tough early, stopping the Cardinals on a fourth-down attempt just five plays into the game. On the second Elizabeth possession, however, senior Rob Leonard powered it in from a yard out on fourth and goal to give the Cardinals a 7-0 lead with 2:31 remaining in the first quarter.
A pair of touchdowns from homecoming king Aaron Stone in the second quarter pushed the lead to 21-0 and a nine-play, 93-yard drive - in which Leonard carried the ball for four first downs and a 10-yard score on eight touches - capped the scoring on the heels of the Pirate interception. Leonard finished with 218 yards on 19 carries. “That third quarter we played them to a stalemate for a while, but that drive we didn’t score we kind of fell apart,” Graves
said. “(Elizabeth) is a much better football team, but the kids they showed they can play with them if we play every down full speed. We just made too many mistakes. “We’ve just got to turn the page and keep going and get better.” Englewood (1-3, 0-1 Colorado 7) will try to get its first league win of the fall Sept. 26 when Fort Lupton (0-4, 0-1) comes to town. The Blue Devils lost their league opener Sept. 19 at home to top-ranked Lutheran (4-0, 1-0) by a score of 55-0.

Volleyball coach named to college’s hall of fame University of Vermont honors Kostiew for her athletic achievements By Tom Munds
tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Fans and players took time before the Sept. 11 match to honor Kristal Kostiew, Englewood High volleyball coach, who was named to the hall of fame at the University of Vermont, her alma mater. Members of the volleyball team presented her flowers and players and fans gave her a standing ovation. “Tonight is about the girls, it’s not about me,” Kostiew said after the presentation. However, she did say she loved athletics and that she was proud of her accomplishments while at the University of Vermont. The coach made a quick trip to the University of Vermont for the awards ceremonies Sept. 13 where she was one of five athletes inducted into the school’s hall of fame. “I was so honored to be named to the school hall of fame,” she said after her return to Colorado. “It was a wonderful experience. I got to see teammates and coaches I haven’t seen in 10 years. Also, my home is in New Hampshire so family came down to be at the event and to spend time with me.” Kostiew said her suitcase weighed 10 pounds more on the trip back to Colorado because of the beautiful hall of fame plaque she received from the school. She returned to Colorado in time to be back at work at Hay Elementary School on Sept. 15 and ran the volleyball team practice that afternoon. Kostiew graduated from the University of Vermont and, the induction into the hall of fame honored her collegiate career athletic achievements in indoor and outdoor track. During the Sept. 11 EHS presentation, it was noted, at the time of her graduation, she was the most decorated women’s track and field performer in American East Conference history. She won 14 American East track event titles and was the first American East athlete to win four straight 20-pound hammer throw indoor track titles. She was named American East Conference’s outstanding field performer four times, winning the honor for outdoor track in 2002, 2003 and 2004 and she also was awarded the honor for the 2004 indoor track season. She was a 12-time All-New England outstanding track athlete and still owns two indoor school records and two outdoor school records.
Softball Continued from Page 19
ball became a big part of my life. I played in the summer and, as a sophomore, I got to play several games at second base. That is where I stayed until I was hurt.” She said she loved softball and the team dynamics that came with it when she played for Englewood. Ragan said the teammates were all friends and the Pirate softball team was almost like a family. When she came down the walk on her crutches for the Sept. 19 game, all her teammates cheered and yelled, “Here comes Emily.” Ragan said she gets her uniform very dirty every game she plays. “I can cover a lot of ground and it seems like I dive a lot to keep a ball in the infield,” she said. “When I make a diving stop, I’m not always able to throw out the runner at first but, by keeping the ball from going into the outfield, I hold the runner at first and may keep a runner from trying to score from third base.” She said she is recovering from her broken ankle and hopes to be able to play softball again this summer. “I want to go to college and continue to play softball but it’ll probably be on a club team,” she said. “I love softball. It is a lot of fun and I hope to be able to keep playing for a lot of years.”

Advocating to breathe freely Denver to host 5K run/walk event for lung cancer awareness By Christy Steadman
csteadman @coloradocommunitymedia.com Lung cancer is not limited to people who smoke. “Any one with lungs can get lung cancer,” said Teresa MacKillop, co-chair of the Denver Free to Breathe event. “And that’s a fact.” MacKillop’s sister died at the age of 39 after being diagnosed with lung cancer 11 months prior. Her mother died from lung cancer at 71, after being diagnosed one year prior. Both had never smoked, she said. A fundraising and awareness event, the 5th annual Denver Free to Breathe 5K Run/ Walk, will take place at 8:40 a.m. Oct. 5 at Washington Park, 701 S. Franklin St., Denver. Funds will go toward lung cancer research, and programs for early treatment and detection. “No one wants to talk about cancer at all,” said Dana Tasker, of Centennial, a thirdyear participant of the event. “But it’s important to find out early, and that’s what the fundraising helps.” Tasker lost her mother, Linda Lefrancois, a former Centennial resident, to stage IV adenocarcinoma lung cancer. When Lefrancois went to doctors because of suffering with a severe cough, they told her it was bronchitis, Tasker said. “It’s a deadlier cancer because people don’t know they have it,” Tasker said. Lefrancois was diagnosed with the cancer in July 2009. She passed away in May 2010. Generally, by the time a person has symptoms, he or she is already in the late stages of cancer, stage three or four, MacKillop said. “Testing is not where it needs to be,” she said. Genetic predisposition may play a role in developing lung cancer, but professionals only know of about 23 genetic markers to test. “There could be hundreds,” MacKillop said. There are 288,000 people diagnosed with
RUN/WALK What: 5th annual Denver Free to Breathe 5K When: Oct. 5; registration and check-in: 7:30 a.m.; walk begins: 8:40 a.m. Where: Washington Park, 701 S. Franklin St., Denver, 80209 How to register: online (closes Oct. 1), $30; mail-in (must be received by Sept. 29), $33; event day, $35 Why: Raise awareness of lung cancer. Funds will go toward research and programs for early treatment and detection. For more information: www.freetobreathe.org
LUNG CANCER FACTS • Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer. But people who have never smoked account for 20,000 to 30,000 lung cancer diagnoses every year. • Exposure to radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer, and the leading cause in people who have never smoked. • Lung cancer accounts for 27 percent of all cancer deaths. It claims more lives than breast, prostate and colon cancers combined. Source: www.freetobreathe.org
lung cancer every year, MacKillop said, and every year, 160,000 people die from the disease. She said the five-year survival rate is very low — only 16 percent. The goal of Free to Breathe is to double lung cancer survival by 2022. Other types of cancers get a lot of recognition, Tasker said, but people don’t realize how common lung cancer actually is. She said the advancements with early detection and cures for some cancers, such as breast cancer, are amazing. “That’s where I want lung cancer.” One important part of raising awareness to lung cancer is “washing away” the stigma that all people who get lung cancer deserve it because they smoke, MacKillop said, which contributes to why funding is low. She wants more people to become involved and realize that lung cancer will continue to affect a large number of people—including nonsmokers. More than 20 percent of newly diagnosed lung cancer patients never smoked, she said. “You can’t freak out and live your life in fear of getting lung cancer,” MacKillop said, “but you can help raise money for research, learn about the disease and be aware.”
ABOVE: Team Linda participates in the 2010 Free to Breathe 5K run/walk. The team consists of friends and family of the late Linda Lefrancois, a former Centennial resident who passed away from lung cancer in 2010. This year, the 5th annual Denver Free to Breathe event takes place Oct. 5 at Washington Park. BELOW: Linda Lefrancois passed away from lung cancer in 2010.

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF SEPT. 22, 2014
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) An offer to help with a stalled project should reassure you that you have a workable plan in spite of the problems in getting it up and running. The week’s end brings more positive news. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) A past problem about a workplace situation re-emerges early in the week. Talking things out helps ease tensions by midweek, but some hurt feelings could linger a few more days. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) YOptimistic aspects dominate your efforts. However, expect to confront some criticism, some of which might be valid, so keep an open mind. But overall, it’s your views that will count.
