Special lunchtime contests, after-school float building and a number of other activities marked Englewood High School homecoming week, culminating in the Oct. 3 football game and the Oct. 4 dance. Midweek, there was a pep rally, bonfire and the annual Powder Puff Flag Football Game matching a team of juniors and seniors against a team of freshmen and sophomores. This year’s game underwent alteration because only 11 students signed up for the underclassmen team. So it was a 7-on-7 matchup, and the upperclassmen won, 6-0. The floats were unveiled at the Oct. 3 homecoming parade. In keeping with tradition, the Pirate Marching Band led the parade. The route took the parade past Clayton and Cherrelyn elementary schools. Students lined the fence to cheers and screams support for the Pirates. The students had special cheers for the Pirate mascot who ran along the edge of the fence. As the sun went down, focus switched to Englewood High School Stadium for the homecoming football game, which included the crowning of the homecoming king and queen during halftime ceremonies. After the marching band performance, the royalty was introduced and the closely-kept secret was revealed when the announcer intro-

A wet blanket of disappointment descended over all the excitement and joy of the evening when, in the final minute of the football game, Vista Peak scored a touchdown and preserved the lead to win, 27-26.

Heavy equipment engines and equipment has replaced the cheers of supporting fans at Englewood High School Stadium as a major makeover is underway. The makeover includes replacement of the north stands and press box, as well as the track, and also encompasses terracing the slopes adjacent to the south stands. Crews demolished one section of seating at the east end of the north stands last week. By Oct. 6, they had removed all of the seats from the west section of the stands and were busy taking out the steel girders that used to support the stands. “The contractor is recycling all the aluminum and steel,” said project manager Donovan Nolan. “I don’t know the weight of the aluminum and steel but estimates are that the company is recycling metal worth between $5,000 and $10,000.” The original plan was to completely demolish the north stands immediately. Part of that demolition has been put on hold, however. “All the north stands seating will be removed but there will be access to the press box during the remaining soccer and football games which will be later this month,” Nolan

Monument honoring military personnel to be put in place in November By Tom Munds
tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com The rose-colored Englewood High School Military Memorial and the pavers that will surround it will soon be installed at the new Englewood High School complex. “The plans are to have the memorial set in place sometime in November,” said Kay Howard, the EHS alumni who spearheaded the effort. “We are working with the contractors to set the final date for the installation.” The centerpiece of the memorial is a pentagon-shaped 6,000-pound stone from a quarry in Lyons. The seals of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard and National Guard are attached to the memorial plus there will be a plaque honoring all men and women who have served in the military. Stone pavers that have been purchased by individuals, families and organizations as a tribute to a service member will surround the memorial. Organizers also established a donor fund and used the money to buy pavers for veterans who couldn’t afford to buy them or for service members with no family members remaining in the area. There will be about 200 pavers put in place when the memorial is installed. Those engraved to honor an individual will be put in place first. The remainder of the pavers will Memorial continues on Page 23

Man hits road of life with hands off wheel The call for prayer from the nearby mosque woke him from a restless sleep about 4 that morning. He showered, dressed and checked his backpack. Water containers. Iodine tablets. Medical kit. Several notebooks and 24 pencils. Some Clif bars. One change of clothes. A credit card to be used only for emergencies. A palm-sized GPS tracker. Tent. Sleeping bag. Compass. No cell phone. He repacked, shut off the lights and knelt on the concrete floor. Let me be present, he prayed. Let me handle challenges with grace and humility. Then, Donovan DiLorenzo — an olive scarf wound around his head, a shadow of a beard on his face, Teva sandals on his feet — stepped from the hotel in Madaba, Jordan, his heart a mix of trepidation and hope, and began walking. “The first time you step out — that’s the scariest,” he said. “You’ve built up all these expectations … and you’re just not sure how they’re going to unfold.” Donovan’s Journey, as his family calls it, began Aug. 27, 2013. It unfolded step by step, without any sure plan. Donovan, then 42, trekked as pilgrims in days of old through Jordan, Israel, Palestine, Egypt and India, letting the day’s encounters chart his path and depending on unexpected kindnesses for food, shelter and companionship. By the time he returned home in May, he had walked more than 1,100 miles. Back home in Highlands Ranch where he grew up, his parents had anxiously followed his path through intermittent signals from a GPS tracker. They thought he was searching for self-discovery. His younger sister later told him she thought his choice to travel without resources or a way to communicate with home was selfish because of the worry it caused those who loved him. Donovan thought doing so was the only real way to live fully in the moment — to see and feel and understand a profoundness of life uncluttered by distractions. He wasn’t really searching for something; he just wanted to see what would happen if life directed him rather than the other way around.
“It was a kind of shedding or surrendering …,” Donovan said. “It was just about letting go and seeing how life would unfold being a little more present.” His life had already detoured from the main road. The tragedy of 9/11 caused him to rethink his course: He left a lucrative job as an account executive in New York to teach in New Orleans’ most challenging urban school district. He later helped with reconstruction and outreach following Hurricane Katrina’s devastation. From there, he joined the Peace Corps, working in Africa in Malawi, one of the world’s least-developed countries. He returned to New Orleans and taught there until last summer, when he decided to abandon life as he knew it. He chose to walk most of his journey to have “more time to think, write and connect with others.” When Donovan refused to take a cell phone, his parents, Neil and Michelle, persuaded him to pack a small GPS tracker. “You’re not really communicating,” Neil told him. “At least, as long as the coordinates are moving, we’ll know you’re alive.” Donovan agreed. Every three days, he activated the device and Neil plotted latitude and longitude on maps to follow his route. Even so, Neil and Michelle slept only a few hours each night those first few weeks. “I am very nervous …,” Michelle said then. “That has been really, really hard, not knowing where he’s at.” Donovan, at times, wasn’t sure exactly where he was, either. The trails seemed confusing, the heat unbearable. In those moments, anxiety would begin to seep into his thoughts — “that feeling,” he wrote later, “when you are unsure about the road
ahead.” But then he would gather courage, bring himself back into the moment, summon a sense of peace. At the start, his feet bled. The backpack rubbed raw a spot on his back. Hunger became a frequent companion — he thought often of his mother’s pasta and meatballs. But fortune continually crossed his path in the form of curious children, interested villagers or, simply, a patch of shade under a tree. Strangers gave him freshly baked warm pita bread. They invited him to share tea around campfires and offered space in their homes to sleep. They shared stories that bound them across cultures and beliefs. “I was really taken aback at how hospitable people were and how people would open up their homes,” Donovan said. “There were those moments when you kind of step back and think, `Wow, that was truly amazing.’” In those instants, he said, God gave him wonder. He prayed in mosques, saw the Dead Sea, visited Cana and other places of the Holy Land, navigated military checkpoints between Palestine and Israel. He walked about 650 miles, according to Neil’s map calculations, before flying from the Red Sea to Cairo at the end of October. After two weeks in Egypt, he flew to Mumbai and walked another 500 or so miles, visiting ashrams where he learned to meditate, and Buddhist temples where he prayed, and, finally, homes in Calcutta run by Mother Teresa’s Sisters of Charity, where he volunteered for two months. He massaged lotion into the withered arms of old men, bathed sick patients, prayed over the dead then carried them to crematoriums. “In Calcutta, there are moments when you have incredible suffering,” Donovan said, “but somehow people find a way to be joyous.” There was the blind man who always sang. There were the children who laughed and played amid the squalor. And the special kinship shared with others who helped. “… a lot of suffering,” Donovan repeated. “But a lot of people giving of them-
selves.” From India, he traveled to Indonesia for a month. And then, life told Donovan it was time to return home to the much-missed embrace of family and friends. Near midnight on May 12, Neil and Michelle drove slowly into the arrival lane at DIA as a tall figure with a bushy beard and a backpack walked to the curb. “He had a scarf on,” Michelle said. But “I would know him anywhere.” At home, Donovan ate a big plate of pasta and meatballs, satiating the craving that hunger had instilled. He reveled in the warmth of family. “He’s very strong,” Michelle said, “but I’m just glad he’s home.” Neil agreed. “We don’t have to worry.” They listened to their son’s stories, marveling at the generosity of strangers who gave to the man who is always giving to others. Yet, Neil said, “his experience is probably hard to share because we can’t understand it — we didn’t live it.” Donovan is in California now, helping develop programs for the mostly Hispanic and disadvantaged teens served by the Boys and Girls Clubs of Sonoma. Life kept telling him, he said, this was his next chapter. He’s written 10 short stories about his pilgrimage and has ideas for about 10 more. He’s writing them, primarily, for family and friends so they can know how letting go propels life to unfold in wondrous, unexpected ways. He would like to return to the Denver area someday. But “you never know,” Donovan said. “The main thing is I’m present and have the courage to follow where life is taking me. We’ll see.” Perhaps, for Donovan, the journey hasn’t ended at all.

Colorado counties ordered to begin issuing same-sex marriage licenses State’s attorney general follows lead of Supreme Court By Mike DiFerdinando
mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com All 64 county clerks in Colorado must begin issuing same-sex marriage licenses after the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear all appeals on gay-marriage bans Oct. 6, Colorado Attorney General John Suthers said. An Arapahoe County spokeswoman said Oct. 7 the county would follow the attorney general’s ruling and has already begun issuing marriage licenses to samesex couples in the county. The first license was given to a couple the evening of Oct. 6. County officials said they saw no reason to make the couple wait for dust to clear from the ruling as the state’s position was made clear by the attorney general. The ruling effectively paves the way for marriage equality for all people in Colorado. “We have consistently maintained that we will abide by the Supreme Court’s determination on the constitutionality of marriage laws. By choosing not to take up the matter, the court has left the 10th Circuit ruling in place,” Suthers said in a statement. “We expect the 10th Circuit will issue a final order governing Colorado very shortly. Once the formalities are resolved, clerks across the state must begin issuing marriage licenses to all samesex couples. We will file motions to expedite the lifting of the stays in the federal and state courts and will advise the clerks when to issue licenses.” Federal and state judges in Colorado have previously struck down the state’s ban on same-sex marriage but they also implemented stays in those cases pend-
ing U.S. Supreme Court action. Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.) applauded the ruling. “We are a stronger, better state when all couples are able to publically affirm their shared commitment and responsibilities to one another through marriage,” Udall said in a statement. “The U.S. Supreme Court’s move to let the Denver-based 10th Circuit Court of Appeals’ decision in favor of marriage equality stand is a win for all Coloradans. “We should celebrate what this will mean for so many of our friends, family members and neighbors. And while this is an important milestone for our state and for other states around the country impacted today, we still have work to do to ensure equality for Americans nationwide.” Andrew Romanoff, a Democratic candidate for the U.S. House (6th Congressional District), released a statement following the Supreme Court’s decision. “Today’s news represents a major victory for every American who values freedom and fairness. I’m glad that Colorado will now be able to join a majority of the union in extending a fundamental right to all of our citizens.” U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette, D-Denver, who serves the 1st Congressional District, spoke out in favor of the ruling as well. “Today marks another important step toward full equality: the Supreme Court declined to take up appeals from gay marriage opponents in five different states,” she said in a statement. “This means that those five states — and others including Colorado — should soon overturn marriage bans. The Colorado Supreme Court should promptly accept this decision and let all loving couples choose to marry freely. And the day is soon coming that everyone in the nation will enjoy this basic right.”

Enterprise zone could equate to tax credits Two businesses benefit from state program promoting development By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Two new Englewood property owners in the city’s medical district may qualify for state enterprise zone tax credits as they ready their buildings for medical uses. Darren Hollingsworth, Englewood’s economic development coordinator, said both developers could qualify. The state created enterprise zones in 1990 that offer tax credits to qualifying businesses that are either locating in a qualifying area or that are an existing businesses expanding operations within an enterprise zone. Hollingsworth said a family investment group owns the building at 180 E. Hampden Ave. and is planning space for medical offices and facilities and a separate group bought the building at 3535 S. Lafayette St. and has similar plans. Businesses can qualify for state enterprise zone tax credits by creating new jobs, providing health insurance to employees, providing job training, investing in new machinery and
equipment and by rehabilitating a building that is at least 20 years old and that has been vacant for at least two years. Hollinsworth said the owners redoing the building on E. Hampden meet the qualifications and could receive a very substantial rehabilitation tax credit. “Business owners are very aware of the state enterprise zone tax credits available,” he said. “We also make sure to include enterprise zone information in the material we provide to businesses considering locating in the city or that are expanding an existing business. The zone tax credits are a strong incentive and a backbone to our economic development programs.” Soon after the state created enterprise zones, the cities of Englewood, Littleton and Sheridan applied for and were granted enterprise zone designation for a majority of the industrially and commercial properties within their boundaries. In 2001 there was a successful request to expand the enterprise zone boundaries to include additional properties in Englewood and Littleton. There was then an additional boundary expansion in 2010. Last year, 63 businesses in the zone applied for tax credits. According to a report provided by the city, the businesses invested an estimated $21 million in their projects and the state granted a total of about $450,000 in tax credits.

Golf at the top tier SPICY BASIL New company brings unique approach to game to Centennial Staff report City councilmembers took the first swings at a groundbreaking ceremony Oct. 3 on the 13 acres of property in Centennial that will soon be home to a new company called Topgolf. The company offers a unique approach to golf where people aim for targets, rather than holes, from an openfaced, tiered building. The building, located near the corner
of South Havana Street and East Easter Avenue, will be three levels with a total of 102 bays where six individuals can play a game, which is scored similar to bowling. Topgolf director of sales and marketing, Susan Walmesley, estimates the company will bring 450 jobs to Centennial and is expecting to be open for business in the spring of 2015. The company, which started in London in 2000 but is now based in Dallas, has 13 locations in the United States and, including the Centennial location, 10 more under construction. Centennial Mayor Cathy Noon said she is excited to have Topgolf opening in the city for its first location in Colorado. “It’s a really great social activity,” she said, “even for the non-golfers.”

GERARD HEALEY President and Publisher CHRIS ROTAR Editor RYAN BOLDREY Assistant Editor TOM MUNDS Community Editor VIC VELA State Desk and Legislative Editor
Maybe that wasn’t a wrong turn after all During a business trip this past week with my associates, we found ourselves in North Carolina and relying heavily upon our GPS system for directions. And with today’s technology it is really almost impossible to get lost, unless of course we are either honest about our own operator errors, or fall victim to that relentless and somewhat irritating message: “Recalculating route.” As we were returning to the hotel from our meeting, and admittedly only one exit away from our destination, we began a riveting discussion about golf. Well, truth be told, our golf games are anything but riveting, but I digress. However, we were distracted just enough to miss our exit, and you guessed it, the next sound we heard was: “Recalculating route.” Our instruction was to take the next left turn and make a U-turn onto the highway back towards the previous exit. As we made the transition into the left lane and waited for an opportunity to open up so that we could merge back into traffic, we all looked ahead at the same time and noticed a sign indicating that we were also at the entrance to the Billy Graham Library. My associate and great friend John, who happened to be driving at the time, looked around the car and asked if we should check it out. An instant and unanimous “yes” easily
rose above the “recalculating route” message as we drove straight across the highway and into the parking lot of the Billy Graham Library. Now I would venture a guess that 80 percent if not 90 percent of everyone reading this column knows who Billy Graham is. But just for those who are unaware, I encourage you to check out the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and the Billy Graham Library at www.billygrahamlibrary.org. Now here’s the real deal with this week’s column. We were scrambling, busy, running a frenetic pace, traveling from city to city, and in a rush to get back to the hotel in time to do more work. Our missed exit and wrong turn slowed us down just enough to take us on an unscheduled detour and spend time in one of the most peaceful and truly inspiring places any of us has ever experienced. And as I share this story with you, I am reminded of
the other similar situations and experiences where I found myself on the road less traveled that brought me to an ocean, a park, a river, or some place or location that was unintended but ended up being the absolute right destination at that moment in my life. You know what I mean, don’t you? We try to map or plan out our routes in life to keep up with the rush and crush of everything happening around us. And then just when we think we have it figured out or maybe just feel like we are finally catching up to where we think we need to be at this time of our life or where others think we need to be, we miss our exit, make a potentially wrong turn, and then magically and wonderfully find ourselves exactly where we need to be at that time. Is there a peaceful and inspiring place you need to find? Are you ready and open to missing your exit, taking a wrong turn that just may take you to that place? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when you miss that next exit, it just might be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.
A little something for those arriving late If you are worried about me because I am retreading themes, and that I might be losing my grip, well, don’t be worried. I hammer the same nails — like Smitty my dachshund, Jennifer my girlfriend, customer service representatives, lutefisk, hair loss, and constipation — partly because I don’t know when you came in. This column is hundreds of columns old by now, but it might be just your first or second one, and maybe you really haven’t figured me out yet. If you are new to “Quiet Desperation,” I can bring you up to speed. You will find a kindhearted man who is patient, generous, and tolerant. Who embraces life, and is outgoing. And who explores this beautiful world that God has created for us, and writes about it for readers like you. It just won’t be me. I am inert and cantankerous. Pessimism is my middle name. “Distrust is the foundation of a good relationship,” is my motto. I think man caves and bachelor parties are dumb. Politicians give me the creeps. I despise the ubiquity of cell phones. Motorists who tailgate should be pulled from their cars and hit repeatedly with a sock full of manure. If you want Hallmark, I am not your writer. I’m a little more like H.L. Mencken, and if you don’t know who he was, look him up. I can write about almost anything because if I don’t know what I am talking about, I can make stuff up, and it gets printed. Don’t tell. If you were to say “gophers,” for example, I
would start with the University of Minnesota. They are the Golden Gophers. It’s a Big Ten school. The Big Ten is made up of 14 schools, not 10, which should give you some idea about the league’s concept of mathematics. Whenever my school’s league expanded they changed the name. At one time it was the Pac-8, then the Pac-10, and now it’s the Pac-12. Those yahoos in the Midwest want to hang on to an inaccurate designation. I refuse to let my son attend a Big Ten university because of it. The school’s colors, maroon and gold, were chosen by a University of Minnesota English instructor named Mrs. Augusta Smith. The colors are nearly identical to USC’s colors, and therefore I always root for the team that Minnesota is playing. Unless it is USC. Bob Dylan was a University of Minnesota student for a little while, just before moving to New York, and turning everything around, including my life. His songs are poems that came at me with
shining, mismatched words. “He shot a fire on Main Street and filled it full of holes.” Dylan, 73, will be performing in Denver on Nov. 1. I won’t be there. Crowds make me uncomfortable, mostly because they consist of people. If you didn’t know much about me 450 words ago, you do now. I am not very interested in simple recitations or benign observations. That’s one of the reasons why Jennifer and I get along so well. Our conversations are usually full of non-sequiturs and word play. But not all of the time. We both experienced very negative marriages. Hers was to a man she met at Xavier, where she was a soccer star. Mine was to vodka. I was on the varsity at Smirnoff State. This is being written a month before our third anniversary, the evening we met, at the Curtis Arts & Humanities Center in Greenwood Village. I was giving an oil painting demonstration. Now we are a couple of disambiguous gophers. So that’s my introduction, if you are new to the column. Thanks for reading, hang by your thumbs, and write if you get work. (I stole that line.

Rec center shows off its artsy side Show at Malley features work of amateur artists By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Artists used oils, acrylics, drawings, photography and other media forms to create the works they submitted for the Englewood Art Exhibit on display through Oct. 11 at the Malley Senior Recreation Center, 3380 S. Lincoln St. “We had 40 artists submit a total of 70 items for this year’s exhibit,” Cheryl Adamson, project coordinator, said. “Sixteen of the artists are Englewood residents. The show also includes the works of artists from Sheridan and Centennial plus we had one artist from Broomfield who submitted works for the show.” Art works on display at Malley in the center lobby plus some works line the main hall. Those interested can stop by to check out the creations of the artists. The viewing hours are from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday and from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday. There is no charge for admission and those who attend the show are asked to cast votes for the People’s Choice Award. Adrian King’s decorated mask is the only ceramics entry in the show. “I like ceramic masks and I bought this one at a show,” she said. “When I got it home and unwrapped it, it broke in half.” She said she originally threw it in the trash but changed her mind, retrieved it so she could create her artwork. “I didn’t really have a plan in mind when I started but, I tried a bit of this and a little of that and it came together. I just love it,” the artist said. She said she was looking for creative outlet for her talents and settled on decorating ceramic masks. “I just work on a project from time to time,” the Denver resident said. “In general, it takes about a week to complete the decoration of a mask.” King said this was her first time to enter one of her works in a public show. “I am glad I submitted the mask for the show,” she said. “It makes me feel good when people stop to look at my creation.” A short distance away, Julie Saad talked about her paintings with a friend.
Adrian King talks about one of her two entries in the Englewood Art Exhibit. King entered a ceramic mask as well as a pastel drawing of a sad clown. Her works are among the 70 items on display at the Malley Senior Recreation Center, 3380 S. Lincoln St. The works will be on display until Oct. 11. Photos by Tom Munds “I took a class in water color painting here at Malley about three years ago and decided I liked to paint,” she said. “Cheryl here at the Malley Center sent me a letter inviting me to enter works in this year’s show. At first, I wasn’t going to enter but then I changed my mind and entered two of my paintings.” One of her paintings is of a woman from India. “I went to India a couple years ago and that was part of the inspiration to do this painting,” she said. “I wasn’t sure what I was going to do. So, as I usually do, I looked at a lot of pictures in magazines. Generally, I favor pictures with pleasing colors. I saw a picture that I liked and it led me to do this painting.” She said she enjoys painting and she is glad the city holds the Englewood Art Show. “I paint because I enjoy it but I think it is fun to enter this show and have my paintings on display where other people can see them,” she said.
Julia Saas, left, talks to a friend about her painting that is one of the two items she entered in the Englewood Art Exhibit. The annual art exhibit offers amateur artists the chance to show their works to the public.

Whales are a big deal October is reminder of disease fight October reminds those of us who are breast cancer survivors how lucky we are for having lived through the journey. Ours is a sorority we never wanted to join. But we did unwillingly and lived to tell it. For me, a multi-year survivor (it’s funny that I no longer remember how many years), October is also a month to support breast cancer patients who are on the path to survival through donating to a charity. My wish in October, and the rest of the year, is for a cure in my lifetime that will annihilate this insidious disease.

New Zealand exhibit runs until February By Sonya Ellingboe
Rich Grant bids adieu
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com Whales, the world’s mightiest animals, date back more than 50 million years and are the subject of legends, films and travel. These giants intrigue people of all ages who love to explore aspects of the underwater world. Living in a landlocked state, as we do in Colorado, doesn’t diminish the fascination with ocean life. “Whales: Giants of the Deep” opens Oct. 10 at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science and runs through Feb. 16. The exhibit is on tour from the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, which has the largest collection of marine mammals in the world. Readers may be aware of a long relationship between the Maori people of New Zealand and whales, and the custom of whale riding, made famous by the film “Whale Rider” some years ago. Changing attitudes have taken many people from hunting whales to protecting them. The exhibit includes interviews about conservation efforts. Visitors will see life-sized models and more than 20 real specimens, including skulls, skeletons, teeth, rare artifacts and some hands-on objects, as well as digital interactives and immersive projections. Historic cultural objects include weapons made from whale bones and delicate ornaments fashioned from whale teeth. Whales range in size from the world’s largest animal, the blue whale, to a tiny Hector’s whale, and the family includes dolphins and porpoises.
Visitors to the New Zealand exhibit can crawl through a replica of a blue whale heart. Visitors can crawl inside a life-sized replica of a blue whale’s heart and be awed by the 53-foot-long skeleton of a sperm whale. They can follow a sperm whale on a hunt for a giant squid. The exhibit also speaks about today’s scientists and new discoveries about the animal’s bodies, feeding methods and vast migration patterns through the Pacific Ocean. Perhaps a budding oceanog-

Rich Grant, Denver’s biggest booster who’s worked at Visit Denver for nearly 35 years, has finally set a retirement date — Dec. 31, his 35th anniversary with the Convention and Visitors Bureau. “It’s been a wild and truly wonderful ride, and I had the great privilege of working with the best communications team ever assembled: Deborah Park, Sarah Welch, Katie Adamson Converse, Shannon Dexheimer, Meredith Mirrington, Jennifer Elving Asbury, Angela Berardino, Carrina Waneka, Jill McGranahan, Joy Long Meadows, Andrea Burns, Diane Bechamps, Kim Farin and Carolyn Livingston,” Grant posted on his Facebook page Tuesday. “And of course, it’s been great working with (CEO) Richard Scharf and the rest of the amazing Visit Denver team. I’ll still be around consulting. And I imagine there might be a retirement party in the future. Or two. Or three. Cheers!” Grant has been toying with his retirement date for months, but settled on his 35th work anniversary and his 65th birthday as the right time. “When I discovered there were 12 new breweries in Denver that I hadn’t been to, I realized — I don’t have enough free time!” he said. I have worked and cocktail-partied with Grant during my 21 years as a Denver-based journalist. Grant, indeed, is Denver’s biggest booster even when he’s trying to convince me that a story that really isn’t a story deserves front-page attention. He’s been a staunch supporter of our fair city, and will be sorely missed.

Chicken special is back
Business Startup Assistance: New Classes
I cornered Denver restaurant mogul Frank Bonanno at one of his booths during Denver Food and Wine recently, and begged, pleaded and cajoled him into bringing back chicken Tuesdays at Lou’s Food Bar, 1851 W. 38th Ave. And although I can’t take total credit for the return of one of my favorite restaurant deals - a half fried chicken (naked, medium or Nashville hot) with two sides and a draft for $20 per person - I certainly added to the popular demand to bring back that Tuesday tradition.

A homecoming heartbreaker Pirates give up go-ahead score with less than a minute remaining By Tom Munds
tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Gloom descended like a blanket on the previously cheering Englewood homecoming crowd as Vista Peak took the lead for good with about 50 seconds left on the clock. Disappointment showed in the faces of the players as they gathered after the 27-26 loss on Oct. 3, but Pirates coach Jay Graves told the players to hold up their heads because he was proud of them and the way they played. “This was a tough loss but that is football,” Graves said. “Our kids played their tails off and gave it everything they had.” After the loss, Englewood’s record is now 2-4 overall and 1-2 in Colorado 7 play as they prepare for a road game against league-leading Lutheran (6-0, 3-0). The Lions are ranked No. 2 in this week’s Class 3A CHSAANow.com poll. Lutheran is averaging 240 yards rushing, 190 yards passing and scoring 43 points per game so far this season. The game will be played at 1 p.m. Oct. 11 on the field adjacent to Lutheran High School at 11249 Newlin Gulch Blvd. in Parker. The air at Englewood High School Stadium crackled with homecoming excitement as the Pirates took the field for their Oct. 3 game against Vista Peak. The Pirates got a good return on the opening kickoff, and mounted a drive that culminated in an eight-yard touchdown run by Nick Bersagel. Quarterback Sean Bowering kicked the extra point and the Pirates were up 7-0 with 7:21 left in the opening quarter. Englewood’s defense kept the Bison bottled up for the remainder of the frame, but Vista Peak drive tied the score with 9:37 left in the second quarter. Less than a minute later, Bersagel took a pitchout, followed good blocking and ran 68 yards for a go-ahead touchdown. The extra point was good but the lead didn’t last long as, about 90 seconds after that, the Bison countered with a long touchdown pass play and an extra point to tie the score back up at 14. The Bison then forged ahead for a 20-14 halftime lead, after the Pirates had a third score of their own nullified by a penalty. The Pirates sustained a lengthy, wellexecuted drive that ate up most of the third quarter clock, and with 2:06 left in the quarter, Bowering went into the end zone from two yards out for the touchdown. The extra-point

Bersagel ran for two touchdowns and passed for another but the Bison won 27-26 with a last-minute touchdown and extra point. ABOVE: Englewood defenders Austin Boyer (18) and Daryl Culbreath (12) bring down a Vista Peak runner for a loss during the Oct. 3 homecoming game. Photos by Tom Munds try failed and the score was tied 20-20 going into the fourth. As the clock was winding down, the Pirates went to a gadget play, and the halfback, Bersagel, threw a pass to Cecil Ordack for a touchdown to take the lead with 2:23 left in the game. The extra point try was blocked, leaving the score at 26-20. Vista Peak came out throwing the football. The Bison focused on the right side of the field and eventually completed the touchdown pass with 56 seconds left in the game. Lineman Ben McFarland said Vista Peak was a good football team but the Pirates should have won the game and he felt penalties cost his team. “Our line was stronger but we could have executed out blocks better,” he said. “They played a hard game and did confuse us a bit by switching up the formation and moving linebackers around to make it harder to block them. Still we did well and should have won the game.” Bersagel had a good night as he carried 30 times for 233 yards and two touchdowns. He also threw a 15-yard touchdown pass. “We figured out good blocking assignments to open things up for me to gain yardage carrying the ball,” he said. “There were some good plays but it would have been a lot better now if we had won.”
Englewood’s Sam Vogel jars the ball out of the grasp of a Vista Peak runner as Kyle Robideau (53) prepares to pounce on it. Vista Peak won the back-and-forth battle with a last minute score, 27-26. Graves said that three players were hurt during the game so he is concerned about the team’s lack of depth going forward. Jakey Ward, Daryl Culbreath and Jacob Faller-Snyder were all injured and unable to return to the game. All three are normally starters on both sides of the ball. “The loss of those starters hurt us and we
had to make adjustments to try to fill those spots,” Graves said. “I know losing this game and losing by one point hurts right now. But all the guys should be very proud of the way they played tonight. The injuries made us adapt to the situation and all the young guys we put into the game gave it their best efforts. I am proud of every player on our team.”
Pirates headed for playoffs Englewood heads to Pueblo for softball regionals Oct. 11 By Tom Munds
tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Englewood softball team took runner-up league honors and with it, earned a spot in the Class 4A regional playoffs. “Making the playoffs is a huge deal for our team and for our program,” Pirates coach Dave Chapman said. “This is the first time the Englewood team has made the softball playoffs in about eight years.” Four teams enter each of the eight Class 4A regional softball playoffs and two teams from each regional advance to the state tournament. Englewood is joined in the double-elimination format by host Pueblo West, as well as Niwot and Delta. The Pirates play Pueblo West at 10:30 a.m. and, at the same time, Niwot will play Delta. The first-round winners meet at 12:30 p.m. with the winner assured of a trip to state. The losers of the 10:30 a.m.
game also play at 12:30 p.m. The winner of the loser’s bracket game will then play the loser of the winner’s bracket game for the regional’s second spot in the state playoffs. “We know the regionals are a challenge because Pueblo West is ranked third in the state in Class 4A and Niwot is a very tough team,” Chapman said. “Delta has a 15-3 record on the Western Slope but we don’t know much about them. We do know they will be competitive. Our players are fired up about going to the regionals so you can bet we will play hard and bring our A game.” The Pirates finished the regular season with an 11-7 overall record. Going into the final week of the regular season, Weld Central was undefeated and in first place while Englewood, Vista Peak and Skyview were tied for second place. The Pirates bested Alameda on Sept. 30 but lost to Elizabeth, 11-0, on Oct. 2. However, because Vista Peak beat Skyview on Sept. 30, it gave Englewood the tiebreaker advantage and second place in the league.

AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE
The zombie on the right believes communication is key for the undead, apparently pausing to snap a selfie on her cell phone.
Zombies prove once again they are a patient bunch, politely waiting in line at the Reinke Bros. parking lot for a lunch of barbecue pork, corn on the cob, rolls and more. The annual Zombie Crawl drew hundreds to downtown Littleton on Oct. 4.
Each year in Littleton, shortly after fall arrives, hundreds of zombies march along Littleton Boulevard, then onto Main Street and take over downtown Littleton. This year, the parade of the undead came on Oct. 4. It started at the Woodlawn Shopping Center and ended downtown at Reinke Bros. for a pig roast. The annual Zombie Crawl is sponsored by the Historic Downtown Littleton Merchants Association. Greg Reinke, president of the merchants association and owner of Reinke Bros., said at least 500 zombies took part this year.
PHOTOS BY CHRIS ROTAR Zombies showed little interest in window shopping on Main Street, instead pushing forward with relentless determination to their final destination: a pig roast at Reinke Bros.

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF OCT 6 2014
ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) An upcoming trip could create some problems with your schedule unless you tie up as many loose ends as possible before you head out the door. Ask a friend or colleague to help you. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Being eager to start a new project is fine. However, moving ahead without knowing what actually will be expected of you could cause a problem down the line. Ask some questions. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Getting through some recent challenges in good shape might give you a false sense of security. Don’t relax your guard. You need to be prepared for what else could happen.

GALLERY OF GAMES
CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Caution is still advised, even though you think you’re as prepared as you need to be. Keep in mind that change is in your aspect, and you should expect the unexpected. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) The Lion’s gift of persuasion helps you get your points across, even to some of your most negative naysayers. An old friend might seek you out for some advice. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) Being sure of your convictions is fine. But leave some room for dissenting opinions. You might learn something that could help you avoid a possible problem later on. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Getting good legal advice on what your rights actually are is the first step toward resolving that pesky problem so that it doesn’t re-emerge at a later date. Good luck. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Longtime relationships work well this week, whether they’re personal or professional. It’s also a good time to invite new friends and colleagues into your life. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) This is a good week to do the research that will help you uncover those irrefutable facts that can back you up on your new venture when you most need it. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Change is an important factor in your aspect this week and could affect something you might have thought was immune to any sort of adjustment or “alteration.” AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Being asked to share someone’s deeply personal confidence might be flattering, but accepting could be unwise. Decline gracefully but firmly. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) As wise as you are, you could still be misled by someone who seems to be sincere but might not be. Take more time to assess the situation before making any commitments. BORN THIS WEEK: You like to face challenges that others might try to avoid, and by so doing, you set an example of courage for all. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

be blank. Howard said plans are to have a buya-paver day around Memorial Day 2015 when pavers can be purchased and engraved. The dedication of the memorial is tentatively scheduled for Memorial Day, 2015. Early plans include a band concert in the auditorium. The idea of a memorial to honor all Englewood High School students who served in the military service was born in 2009 during the 50th reunion of the school’s Class of 1959. “Originally, the suggestion was placing a bench in the school,” Howard said. “But, after talking with people at the school district and high school, we came up with the idea of a memorial in front of the school near the flagpole.” She said support from individuals and organizations have made it possible to transform a vision of a memorial into a reality. For more information on the project call 303-740-8789 or go to the organization’s Facebook page at www.facebook.com/EnglewoodHighSchoolMilitaryMemorial.
said. “That is necessary because there is no way to have temporary access to the controls for the scoreboard and to the public address system.” Demolition of the north stands also makes a supply of dirt available to the contractor and the dirt will be used as the construction of the seventh- through 12th-grade campus on the Englewood High School site nears completion. At the Sept. 4 school board meeting, School Superintendent Brian Ewert 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 equip-

Comments of school board members Sept. 16 indicated they wanted to see seating in the north stands for 2,300 people as it is now. That project is expected to 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 cost is estimated to be 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 likely from the unallocated reserves. The board unanimously approved the stadium project with maximum funding of $776,000.
