When it comes to the economy, it’s a good time to be in Douglas County. The unemployment rate in the county fell to 3.2 percent in December — a 1.5 percentage-point drop from the same time the previous year — according to data released Jan. 27 by the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment, The dip below 4 percent in recent months marks the first time the county has seen such healthy employment figures since 2008. Meanwhile, sales prices for single-family homes jumped throughout the county in 2014. And, according to data compiled in September by Sentier Research, Douglas County has the sixth highest median household income in the nation at $99,767. That’s nearly twice the national average of $52,300. “I think we have done our best to create an environment where people want to come and do business,” Douglas County Commissioner Jill Repella said. “That is one of our long-term goals for the county.” Repella pointed to a climate of less red tape and more streamlined regulation for things like licensing and building permits, as well as the use of a business personal property tax exemption to invite and stimulate economic growth. Under the tax exemption, the first $100,000 of actual value is exempted for Economy continues on Page 10
Getting things moving Mansion Dancin’ series begins with Salsa Night

csteadman @coloradocommunitymedia.com About 100 people wiggled about the dance floor Jan. 29 at Salsa Night, the first night of the Mansion Dancin’ series. Two more opportunities for people to dance the night away at the Highlands Ranch Mansion will be offered this year: Classic Ballroom Dance Night on Feb. 26 and Country-Rock Dance Night on March 26. Live music will be performed each night. This is the second year for the Mansion to put on the series, said the Mansion’s manager, Maggie Glass. “The dance series fits really well for the colder months,” she said. “We’re trying to use the Mansion in a way where everybody can come and have a fun night out.” Last year, the series only had salsa and country nights, Glass said, but they both produced a large turnout, so the third
dance night, ballroom, was added this year. Each night features dance instructors Princess Wallace and Spencer DeJaynes, said the mansion’s administrative assistant, Rebecca Salyers. Some experienced dancers come, she said, but since there are instructors, others come because it sparks their interest and they simply want to try it. The Mansion Dancin’ series takes place from 6:30-9 p.m. at the Highlands Ranch Mansion, 9950 E. Gateway Drive. Tickets are $20, and can be purchased at www. highlandsranchmansion.com. Entry and one drink voucher is included in the price. All dance nights are 21-and-older events. Usually people would need to go downtown to find this caliber of entertainment, Glass said. But for two more nights, she said, they don’t have to. “It’s here, right in your own backyard.”

Online list gives three DougCo schools an A+ Colorado School Grades uses state data to assign letter grades By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Three Douglas County elementary schools — two of them charters — earned an A-plus rating in this year’s Colorado School Grades rankings. Parker Core Knowledge, Platte River Academy and Redstone Elementary were rated top performers on the list. Parker Core Knowledge was rated first among 1,101 elementary schools. It tied with eight other elementary schools for the No. 1 spot in the state. Launched in 2011, the coalition of 18 education-focused organizations that form Colorado School Grades translates Colorado Department of Education data into letter grades. In Douglas County, the most common grade — 39 out of 89 rated — was a B. A total of 17 got an A; 29 scored a C. The only DCSD schools receiving D and F ratings were eDCSD and three levels of Hope Online. Ratings for Douglas County schools dropped from 2012 to 2013, but showed little change from 2013 to 2014. In 2012, 26 of 85 schools graded received an A, 38 a B and 16 a C. The Douglas County School District said Colorado School Grades is not a comprehensive measurement. “Colorado School Grades is one tool that utilizes mostly CDE (Transitional Colorado Assessment Program) TCAP results,” DCSD spokeswoman Paula Hans wrote in an email, referring to the annual state standardized test. “This is just one data point and does not capture the true performance and excellence found in our schools and demonstrated by our students. “Even by this measure, the district and our schools are wonderful places for students, and we want more. One test score on one day is not enough data for our staff, parents and students.” The Colorado School Grades’ coalition includes the Independence Institute, Morgridge Family Foundation, Daniels Fund, Walton
Parker Core Knowledge
Parker Core Knowledge, which recently celebrated its 20th year, now can add another feather to its school cap. Director Teri Aplin attributes its high rating to good preparation, high-quality teachers and hard-working students. “Our children are prepared in the grade before, so the teacher is able to take them and move them up,” she said. “We have highquality, highly effective teachers. And I think the third part is just hard-working students who are interested in learning and work hard to succeed. They have to be very diligent students here to be successful because there’s a lot expected of them.” That hard work is tempered with genuine affection, she said. “I think the students all know they’re cared for,” she said. “That’s an intangible that’s hard

Family Foundation, Colorado Black Chamber of Commerce, Urban League of Metropolitan Denver and the Anschutz Foundation, among others. Many of the organizations support education reform and increased educational options, but spokeswoman Kristina Saccone said Colorado School Grades’ goal here is to make it easy for parents to see how a school is performing. The University of Colorado at Denver and R-Squared Research calculate the grades using the same variables and weights as the CDE’s School Performance Framework, according to Colorado School Grades’ website. “We’re just using the data and making it transparent for parents so they can make a good choice for their child,” Saccone said. “There really isn’t any other agenda.” CDE data is difficult for parents to decipher, she said, and website visits for Colorado School Grades suggest consumers like it. “I think Colorado School Grades is ubiquitous with school ratings in Colorado,” she said. “Our site numbers and metrics are very good.” CDE confirmed Colorado School Grades’ uses its data, “but norms the results to assign letter grades to schools,” according to an email from spokeswoman Megan McDermott. The following is a further look at the schools that received an A-plus grade.

to quantify. Even vendors comment that it feels different. This school’s always had this special something.”
Platte River Academy Principal Mike Munier, of Platte River Academy in Highlands Ranch, is pleased but not surprised by his school’s A-plus grade and ranking at 14th among 1,101 elementary schools statewide. “No matter what kind of test you throw at them, I’ve always thought our kids would do fine,” he said. “They’re just well-rounded students. But it’s nice to be recognized.” Like Parker Core Knowledge, Platte River emphasizes high academic expectations with homework to reinforce classroom lessons. “As we’re teaching them the skills of reading, mathematics and writing, they’re dealing with challenging content that really does test them and get them thinking in different directions,” Munier said. “When you come to Platte River, you kind of know what to expect in terms of curriculum, cultural experience and philosophy. People choose Platte River because it fits who and what they are as a fam-
ily, the learning style of their student.”
Redstone Elementary Since the site debuted in 2011, the Highlands Ranch neighborhood school has shot to the top of the Colorado School Grades list. It received an A-plus grade in 2014, and tied for 14th with Platte River. “We’ve gone from being 115th four years ago to being ranked 14th,” said Principal Laura Wilson, who attributes that in part to a longstanding relationship with her teachers. “I’ve had the luxury of being with my staff for 10 years, pushing them, them trusting me and me trusting them — which I think is huge,” she said. “They continuously learn and grow, and it’s all about the kids.” Redstone is unique within DCSD for its iPad program. In 2012, it ensured each student had an iPad. Recently, the Apple computer company named it an Apple Distinguished School, recognizing its innovation, leadership and educational excellence.

Prosecutors request use of new evidence from old case Similarities found in deaths of Highlands Ranch man’s two wives By Christy Steadman

Federal prosecutors on Jan. 29 asked the court to grant permission to use new evidence found from a re-opened 1995 murder investigation. Harold Henthorn, 59, of Highlands Ranch, is being held on a firstdegree murder charge, stemming from an incident in which his second wife, Toni Henthorn, fell to her death in Rocky Mountain National Park on Sept. 29, 2012. “The United States Attorney’s Office will work tirelessly with the National Park Service and the FBI to ensure that justice is done for the victim and her family,” U.S. Attorney John Walsh said. On May 7, 1995, Henthorn’s first wife, Sandra Henthorn, died after a car fell on top of her after the jack slipped while she and her husband were changing a flat tire in southern Douglas County. It was ruled an accident and the case was closed. Essentially, two murder investigations are being conducted against Henthorn, said Ron Hanavan, spokesman for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. Prosecutors argue evidence from the first wife’s death is justifiable because Toni is not Henthorn’s first spouse to die in bizarre circumstances. Both deaths happened in
‘Over the past 27 months, our dedicated detectives have tirelessly re-examined this case and will continue until we have exhausted every aspect.’ Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock remote locations where Henthorn was the only witness, according to court documents, and he told several conflicting accounts of what happened in both incidents. Additionally, the documents state Henthorn would acquire a significant amount of insurance money from both deaths. The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office re-opened the murder investigation into the first wife on Oct. 12, 2012, Hanavan said, partly because of the “extraordinary circumstances involving the death investigation” of Toni Henthorn. “This case is extremely complex,” Sheriff Tony Spurlock said. “Over the past 27 months, our dedicated detectives have tirelessly re-examined this case and will continue until we have exhausted every aspect.” Investigative techniques and advances in technology have changed drastically since the time the incident was initially investigated in 1995, Spurlock added. About 40 interviews have been conducted since October 2012, which has contributed to additional information being
uncovered that was originally either unknown or unavailable. A federal grand jury returned an indictment on Nov. 5, 2014, for the second wife’s death. Special agents with the National Park Service and the FBI, with substantial support from the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, arrested Henthorn without incident on Nov. 6. It will be up to the judge whether the evidence discovered in the 1995 incident will be permitted in trial for the jury, said Jeff Dorschner, spokesman for the District of Colorado United States Attorney’s Office. On Nov. 12, Henthorn entered a not-guilty plea in U.S. District Court in Denver. At that hearing, U.S. Magistrate Judge Kathleen M. Tafoya found Henthorn a danger to the community and a risk of flight, and ordered him to be held in the custody of the U.S. Marshals without bond. Henthorn’s next court appearance is yet to be determined, however, a motions hearing is proposed for March 2.
Man fatally shoots himself at park DougCo deputies respond after shots were fired Staff report A man shot himself in Highlands Ranch during the early-morning hours of Feb. 3 after law enforcement made several unsuccessful attempts to get him to lay down his weapon. The identity of the man was not re-
leased by press time. Douglas County Sheriff’s Office deputies were dispatched at about 5 a.m. on a call reporting numerous gunshots heard in Foothills Park, which is a neighborhood park in a residential area near the intersection of Riddlewood Lane and Riddlewood Court. Deputies discovered the man armed with a rifle and tried to get him to surrender the gun. He refused and his self-inflicted gunshot wound was fatal, Sgt. Ron Hanavan, the sheriff’s office’s
spokesman, confirmed. No law enforcement weapons were fired during the standoff and no deputies were injured, the sheriff’s office said. Foothills Park was reopened for public use at about 10:30 a.m. An ongoing investigation into the suicide is being led by the 18th Judicial District’s Critical Response Team, which consists of the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office and other law enforcement agencies within the district.

NEWS IN A HURRY Learn more about C-470 Corridor project
Open-house meetings will take place at 6 p.m. on Feb. 10 and 11 at the Highlands Ranch Metro District Office, 62 Plaza Drive, so the community can receive updates on the C-470 Corridor project. The proposed action for the project includes the addition of tolled express lanes on C-470 between I-25 and Kipling Parkway with the intent to address traffic congestion, reduce traveler delay and improve trip reliability. The first phase of construction is anticipated to begin in summer 2016. Attendees of the open houses will learn general project information, the evaluation of traffic-noise impacts, recommendations for traffic-noise mitigation and the environmental assessment. Attendees will have opportunities for discussion of these topics. Both meetings are open to the public, and the same information will be presented on both dates. They are hosted by the Colorado Department of Transportation and the C-470 Corridor Coalition. More information on the project can be found on CDOT’s website at www.codot. gov/projects/c470ExpressLanes. For more information on the open houses, contact Roger Sherman at 303-5925465 or rsherman@crlassociates.com.

Sheriff to shave mustache for cancer research Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock is joining the effort to help cure childhood cancer by volunteering to shave off his mustache — one he has had for more than 30 years. But a certain amount of money must be raised in order for him to do so, said his wife, Stacy, who is organizing the event. She is going through the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, which is “a volunteer-driven charity dedicated to raising money for life-saving childhood cancer research and funds more in childhood cancer grants than any organization except for the U.S. government.” The local event is proposed to take place on March 14 at the Douglas County Events Center, but details are yet to be determined. To donate to the sheriff’s cause to benefit the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, visit www. stbaldricks.org. From the homepage, click on “our community,” and choose “events.” Then type in “Castle Rock, CO” in the “find events” box.

Choose what to fly, and then fly it high We have a very exciting event that will create a very unique opportunity here in Colorado this year. The World Cup Championships will be held in Vail and Beaver Creek and we will be hosting guests from all over the country and all over the world. Now even though you may not be into skiing or ski racing, and you may not even live in the Vail Valley, it is still a pretty amazing event that will allow the racers to showcase their skills in an unbelievable venue. And it will also provide each one of us with an opportunity to showcase our special gifts and skills. As the competitors and guests arrive from all over the world, we will see jackets, shirts, hats, pins, banners and flags celebrating their home countries. We will see and hear our international guests who have come to watch the event as they speak in their languages and in some cases do their best to interact with us in English. Many of them will also be very fluent in English. This will be a very exciting time for Colorado. And as I thought about this, I thought about the fact that guests will not just be going to Vail and Beaver Creek — many will undoubtedly come early and stay longer to experience Denver and other communities. And as they do, we have that unique op-
portunity to showcase who we are and why Colorado is such an amazing place to live. So which flag will you be flying? Maybe there is a country that you come from or your ancestors came from and where you still feel a sense of patriotism. Maybe there is an athlete you like to watch and root for. But as I think about what other flags we could be flying as we host so many guests, I think about the flags of friendship, hospitality, customer service, compassion, kindness and so many other positive messages that we could make sure that our guests see in us and experience through us. Then I thought about it a little further and wondered what flag it is that people see when they see me all year long. What flag do they see you flying all year long? You see, our flag is like our brand, people associate it with
how they see us and how they see us in action. How they see us as we treat others and interact with the community. So it’s not just about the World Cup Championships going on in our state, it’s about our brand and the flag that others see hanging over our homes, our businesses, and over our heads. It could be those same flags of friendship, hospitality, customer service, compassion and kindness as mentioned before. Or perhaps it could be other flags, like flags of honesty, integrity, hard work, commitment, love, forgiveness, chivalry and fun loving. And just like throughout the year when we can clearly see college flags and professional team flags waving from garages and cars demonstrating fans’ love and loyalty to their teams, people can clearly see our brand, and who we are from a mile away. So which flag are you flying? What is it that you hope people will see in you? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com. And when we allow others to see all the good in each of us, it really will be a better than good week.

I feel I must reply to Barbara Morton’s letter in the recent edition of the paper in her reply to my letter commenting on Diane Schrack’s letter on the Douglas County Sheriff’s training facility on South Santa Fe. She wrote several prevarications of facts that should be corrected. One prevarication of the truth is that she stated “guns cause more deaths in this country than any other ‘civilized’ country.” According to Wikipedia, she is entirely wrong in her statement. They list 12 countries that have more deaths than the United States, one of which is Jamaica. I would think Jamaica is civilized. Another untruth she attacked me on is that she stated that “he and his Glock and AK-47 can sleep well at night.” I do not own a Glock or AK-47! I do carry as my duty a 9mm pistol with a concealed-carry permit. I am also considering volunteering for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Reserve Deputy Academy program. With this letter I just want to set the record/truth straight and not attack her as she did me. As a very proud conservative I do not act as liberals so often do
before getting their facts straight. Keith Wanklyn Highlands Ranch
Don’t treat grandma like a dying dog The latest bill before the Colorado House would legalize physician assisted suicide. In cruder terms, “Grandma, why not consider suicide and end your suffering.” But she deserves to draw every last breath naturally, just as you do. If there wasn’t an inherent value of life, then why do people go to the ends of the earth to find life-saving treatments for everything from heart valve malfunctions to cancer enduring chemo, life-saving operations and the like? Why? Because every life has value, even if that life is painful. Suffering is a part of life, in case you haven’t noticed. Just because grandma’s pain is great does not mean her life has less value. When my mom was at the end of her life, I had the great opportunity to return, in a unique way, the love she had given me all my life. To be there in her final moments and minister to her needs, was a time I will always treasure, difficult thought it was, for both of us. To take that time away from families in the form

of legalized suicide is to deprive grandma’s family the opportunity to minister to her and return love in a special way. When my dog was dying, we had her “put down.” It was sad, but she was a dog, not my mom, and while the dog’s life had value, it was not on equal footing with my mom. No one wants to see a person suffer, but suffering is a part of the human condition. Every life has value and the end is in God’s hands and should remain there. Spend those last moments with grandma, however difficult they may be, reciprocating love and enduring it together. Leave euthanasia for the pets. Kitty Nierling Centennial
Life as a club swim parent Eleven years. Eleven years as a parent of club swimmers. It comes to an end in August when my youngest daughter begins school at the University of Northern Colorado. She will swim there, and if all goes well, graduate in four years. My oldest is at Colorado State, studying business and swimming. What does the end of this 11 years mean? We no longer have to consult swim meet schedules
to determine if we can schedule something. No more rising at 5:30 on weekends to pack snacks; check equipment (goggles, suits and Gatorade). No more sitting on uncomfortable benches for five hours to watch your kid compete for approximately 10 minutes. We have watched the girls endure all types of coaches — good, bad, nice, mean, personable, standoffish and banned. Some had more than one of the aforementioned traits. We have seen countless tears, cheers, made cuts and missed cuts. We have spent tens of thousands of dollars over the years for suits, travel, club expenses and equipment. The girls, what did they get? They learned sportsmanship, time-management skills, fitness and lifelong relationships. They trained harder than just about any other known sport. They put in eight practices a week, including two a days requiring them to rise at 4:30 on school days. Will we miss it? Are you kidding? I would do it all over in a splash. My only regret is this chapter is coming to an end and not just beginning. John Salanitro Highlands Ranch

Douglas district reschedules summit Innovation expo will showcase reform efforts for other districts By Jane Reuter

High school culinary team cooking for alpine pros ThunderRidge ProStart students selected for eight-day assignment By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com A culinary team including four ThunderRidge High School students, teacher Katy Waskey and Douglas County School District executive chef Jason Morse are spending the week showcasing their talents in Vail. The ProStart students —Jake Schneller, Connor Bruce, Halee Paddock and Amanda Dover — were chosen to cook for a Liechtenstein ski team during the 2015 FIS World Alpine Ski Championships. “We’re looking forward to a long but fun eight days of cooking,” Morse said. Organized by the International Ski Federation in odd-numbered years independent of the Winter Olympics, Vail and Beaver Creek are hosting the 2015 competitions. More than 700 athletes representing more than 70 countries are expected. The opening ceremony was Feb. 2 and the event extends through Feb. 15. ThunderRidge is among six groups selected by the Colorado Restaurant Association to cook for the athletes. The hectic schedule could prove a make-or-break for students considering a career in the food industry, Morse said. “Our schedule is pretty crazy,” he said. “We cook for our athletes from 6 a.m to 9 a.m. which means we’re probably up at 4. Then we’re off during the day. We’re back
around 4 to get ready for dinner from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Then we do the same thing the next day. “It will be great to show our students what performing on a high level for eight days really means. Maybe it’s a good springboard to say, ‘Yes, I totally want to do this,’ or, `I don’t know’.” Morse credits the ThunderRidge ProStart high standards for landing the honor. “Our reputation is what led us to be selected,” he said. “The teachers are a huge part of that.” The ProStart hospitality program, created by the Colorado Restaurant Association Education Foundation, the Colorado Restaurant Association, and the Colorado Hotel & Lodging Association, is a twoyear curriculum offered in 29 state high schools. As a magnet program, it’s open to students from other schools. Because the event takes place during a regular school week, the four students still will be expected to complete all classroom assignments between creating meals for world-class athletes. Menus were submitted and pre-approved. “Because they’re Europeans, we have a lot of European breads, meat and cheese trays, including some nice Colorado beef, fish, chicken and pork,” Morse said. “We’re giving them tons of options.” The event, Morse said, “is second only to the Olympics. … I’m so excited to be able to have these kids experience something like this. It’s a huge honor.” Morse hopes students also will have time to tour some Vail-area kitchens and meet chefs who work in the resort communities.
County OKs first phase of Sterling Ranch Groundbreaking planned to take place in spring Staff report Sterling Ranch, a mixed-use, masterplanned community that will take shape in northwestern Douglas County, received permission from county commissioners Jan. 27 to proceed with its first filing. It will include 660 single-family residential lots on 325 acres. The first of nine villages at Sterling Ranch is on schedule to break ground this spring, with the start of home construction in the fall. The initial filing will be called Providence Village and, in addition to single-family homes, it will include 144 single-family attached homes, a K-8 school, church, civic center, recreation center, fiber optic network offering 1 gigabit Internet service for each home and 85 acres of open space. “We are ready to move forward and pleased that after six years of various approvals from the Douglas County com-
missioners and the support and regional cooperation from Castle Rock, Aurora, Roxborough Village, numerous south metro groups, the environmental community and neighbors, we can proceed to build this innovative community in the middle of this environmental treasure,” Jim Yates, president of Sterling Ranch Development Co., said in a news release. Douglas County approved the filing after Sterling Ranch satisfied conditions related to water supply and treatment, traffic in the area, and protection of the area’s natural landforms. According to the county, Sterling Ranch will continue to have building-dependent obligations reviewed and approved by the county as the process continues. Sterling Ranch is located south of C-470 and the Chatfield Reservoir and west of Santa Fe Drive. The total community at Sterling Ranch will require about 20 years to build and will eventually cover 3,400 acres, or about 5.3 square miles. It will be home to 31,000 people in 12,050 homes across the nine villages radiating outward from a town center.
A three-day event — designed to showcase and share with others the Douglas County School District’s efforts to change education — is planned from Feb. 18-20 with sessions at Lone Tree’s Denver Marriott South hotel and in various schools. The Innovation Summit originally was scheduled for June 2014. It was rescheduled because February works better for both the district and those interested in attending, according to DCSD. To date, 37 people have registered for the event. Described on the district’s website as “an unprecedented opportunity to collaborate on the reinvention of American education,” the event will include sessions on student assessments, school choice, teacher evaluations and pay structures, safety, site-based budgeting and other topics. Participants will visit schools to “see classrooms of the future in DCSD today” and “meet teachers and students engaged in 21st-century learning,” according to the site. There is no registration fee for participants. DCSD originally planned the June event with a charge of $200 per participant or $400 for teams of two or more, but dropped fees from the rescheduled event. The removal of fees was designed to make it more affordable for districts that would like to attend, according to DCSD. Parent Meg Masten, who has been critical of many of DCSD’s reforms, is concerned about the cost of the event and how DCSD will be portrayed to participants. “I worry that those attending the summit will see a carefully crafted view of DCSD that fails to shed light on all the
unfunded needs we have, as well as the poor parent and staff satisfaction levels,” she said, adding she is not convinced the event costs are completely covered by non-district funds. “The district staff time that is being spent to promote, develop and execute an event of this magnitude is significant. This amount of effort should, instead, be applied toward the school- and classroom-level needs, where it would have a direct impact on the education of children.” The rental of the venue, materials for attendees, and other expenses will be paid for through grants made to the Douglas County Educational Foundation specifically for the event, according to DCSD spokeswoman Paula Hans. Hans did not respond when asked who had provided the funding, but said the grants will cover event-related expenditures. School leaders said the Innovation Summit is not only a way to showcase the district’s work, but to exchange ideas with others who are undertaking major changes in the field of education. “We know many districts across the country share our goals and are our partners in the reinvention of American education,” the site reads. “This is an opportunity for us to gather together and talk about the work we share, things that we’ve learned, things that we’ve done well and things that we can do better together.” DCSD’s website describes the summit as “the perfect place to light the spark of change at your school or district or continue work that has already begun.” Douglas County School Board president Kevin Larsen said the district frequently hosts curious guests from other districts, and the summit will be an opportunity to exchange information with a broader audience. “We get a lot of inquiries from outside educators to come visit that can become disruptive when peppered sporadically throughout the calendar,” he said. “Holding this event in a concentrated few days allows this collaboration to be more efficient and productive.” For more event information, visit www. dcsdk12.org/innovation-summit.

Douglas County is thriving, Commissioner Jill Repella said. There are five goals the board of county commissioners has identified as important to ensure that continues: transportation infrastructure; economic foundations; personal and public safety; natural resources, with a high emphasis on water; and community services. Repella and fellow commissioners talked about those goals and some recent accomplishments at a High-
lands Club breakfast meeting Jan. 30 in Highlands Ranch. A look at some of their comments: • Economically, the county is thriving in large part because of new businesses, which bring jobs to the county, Repella said. “Because of the success of bringing in new businesses,” Repella said, “we now have a new revenue stream we have never relied upon before.” • Having a safe community is important, said Commissioner David Weaver, the former Douglas County sheriff. More than 90 percent of the people he talks to believe that “Douglas County is a safe place to live, work
and raise a family,” he said. • Douglas County is already working to make sure it is prepared for Colorado’s continued population growth, Weaver said. Part of that is “making sure we have adequate roads,” he said, “so we can move our economic foundation forward. We’re going to have people moving to our community.” • Commissioner Roger Partridge said the board doesn’t take its responsibility lightly. It is their job to protect and represent the people of Douglas County, he said. “Our goal is not to get in the way, but to help you succeed.”

businesses in Douglas County. The exemption was originally created for new businesses, but has seen so much success that the county has now made it available to all businesses. “We believe in strategic investment,” Repella said. Andrea LaRew, the president of the Highlands Ranch Chamber of Commerce, said the ability of all of the county’s municipalities to work in tandem to promote the county as a whole has also played a key role. “The people who work in economic development in the county do a great job of putting Douglas County front and center to attract new businesses,” LaRew said. Douglas County’s jobless rate compares favorably to both that of Denver (4.2 percent) and the state as a whole (4 percent), though both saw improvements in the latest figures over 2013. The last time the Colorado unemployment rate was as low as 4 percent was October 2007, before the recession slammed the nation. For Douglas County, the employment numbers only tell part of the story. As one of the most prosperous areas in the state, Douglas County has also seen a substantial rise in home values. “We always say `location, location, location,’ but it’s not just the place,” said Jeff Wasden, vice chair of public affairs for the South Metro Denver Chamber of

Commerce and president of the Colorado Business Roundtable. “It’s about everything around the place. The schools, having a community where people feel safe, it’s about the quality of life people can have here. It’s the combination of everything that builds a community where people want to live, work and play.” According to the Douglas Elbert Realtor Association, the median sale price of a single-family home in Douglas County
in 2014 was $375,000 and the average sale price was $432,208. Both figures represent about a 9 percent rise over 2013. “These numbers really are all related,” Repella said. “When you create a place where people want to come and invest, that investment touches the rest of the community — more people want to move to the community and buy homes and live and work here.”

glowga party Billy Joel set for show at Pepsi Center
Cindy Shoemaker teaches the inaugural glowga event Jan. 24 at the Southridge Recreation Center. The event attracted the rec. center’s maximum capacity of 105 participants. Courtesy photos
Staff report The Highlands Ranch Community Association hosted its first glowga, or glow-in-the-dark yoga, event on Jan. 24 — and it was popular enough to fill capacity at 105 people. Glowga has been a “thing” in the
nation for about three to four years, said instructor Cindy Shoemaker, who has been teaching yoga for six years. Colorado has a fairly large yoga community, she said, and she is excited that glowga was well-received in the Highlands Ranch community. “People love the idea of doing something they don’t do in their
normal lives,” she said. “It’s just about having fun.” The HRCA offers a number of different types of yoga classes through its recreation centers, and a community glowga event will become annual. It may come back at a sooner date because of popular demand, but there are no plans in place as of yet.
After a five-year hiatus, piano man Billy Joel makes his return to Denver Sept. 16 at the Pepsi Center. The show starts at 8 p.m. Joel’s last performance at Pepsi Center was in February 2010. “We are incredibly excited to welcome back Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legend, Billy Joel, to the Pepsi Center in Denver,” said Jim Martin, president and CEO of Kroenke Sports & Entertainment. “It is a true honor to host one of music’s most storied performers for what will be a memorable evening for his fans in Denver and throughout Colorado.” In December 2013, Joel received The Kennedy Center Honors, one of the United States’ top cultural awards. He also has won six Grammy Awards, including the Grammy Legend Award, and has been inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Feb. 6 at www.AltitudeTickets.com.
‘The Taste’ of success
Boulder-bred chef Gabe Kennedy, who now calls New York City home, was the record-setting champion of season three of the ABC cooking competition “The Taste.” Kennedy, who was named the show’s winner on Jan. 22, gets his own cooking show on ABC.com, $100,000 and “The Taste” trophy. The culinary tug-of-war puts 16 contestants — from home cooks to pros — going tongs to tongs to create a single spoonful of food judged by heavyweight foodies Anthony Bourdain, Nigella Lawson, Ludo Lefebvre and Marcus Samuelson. Kennedy’s journey to victory earned him the most gold stars in the series’ history.

Baritone performs at Lone Tree
Nathan Gunn, one of the world’s most in-demand baritones, makes his Denverarea debut at 7:30 p.m. March 10 at the Lone Tree Arts Center, 10075 Commons St., Lone Tree. Gunn’s performance will be accompanied by Julie Jordan Dunn, his wife and accomplished pianist. The decorated baritone has appeared with the Metropolitan Opera, San Francisco Opera, Lyric Opera of Chicago, Royal Opera House Covent Garden, Paris Opera, Bayerische Staatsoper, Glyndebourne Opera Festival, Theater an der Wien, Teatro Real in Madrid and more. Tickets to the Lone Tree concert range from $65 to $75, and can be purchased online at www.lonetreeartscenter.org or by calling 720-509-1000 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.

ThunderRidge knocks off Rock Canyon Coaches put aside their friendship in budding rivalry By Jim Benton
jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Rock Canyon boys basketball coach Kent Grams didn’t talk with his former coach all week. Grams’ former coach just happens to be ThunderRidge coach Joe Ortiz. Rock Canyon played Ortiz’ Grizzlies in a Continental League confrontation Jan. 30 in front of a capacity crowd in the Jaguars’ Jungle. ThunderRidge, ranked second in the CHSAANow.com Class 5A poll, used a dominating effort by 6-foot-10 senior center Zach Pirog to defeat seventh-ranked Rock Canyon, 61-51, and remain unbeaten in the league. “I played for coach Ortiz,” said Grams. “He’s the greatest mentor, best friend and father figure. It’s an incredible relationship that I have with their head coach. It’s different. We talk three or four times a week throughout the season until the week that we play each other. “Once the ball is chucked up we’re both competitors and want to beat the other. I cheer for ThunderRidge every other night except the night that they play us.” Grams was on ThunderRidge’s 2001 state championship football team and was the Most Valuable Player for Ortiz on the Grizzlies 2001-02 state title basketball team. “He was my player,” said Ortiz. “It’s a weird emotion to play them. I wish he was in a different league so we didn’t have to play them each year. We love each other.” Grams coached Pirog when he was on the ThunderRidge staff, but now he watched him almost single handedly beat the Jaguars on Jan. 30. Pirog had 28 points, 15 rebounds and four blocked shots as the Grizzlies improved to 16-1 and 4-0 in the Continental League. Rock Canyon (14-4, 4-1) had no answers for Pirog. “He’s a monster, he’s so long,” said Grams. “He’s good. He’s the same player he was when I coached him at ThunderRidge. He dominated games then

Photo by Jim Benton and he dominated this game.” Pirog admitted that he was the key to ThunderRidge’s game plan against Rock Canyon. “It felt good,” he said. “We had great focus as a team. We knew it was going to be a tough game, we knew it was going to be loud and we had all our hand signals and stuff. Pirog had 11 points in the first half and ThunderRidge went on an 11-0 run to take a 23-11 halftime advantage as Rock Canyon scored only four points in the second quarter. Rock Canyon’s elite guard combination of Mitch Lombard and Tyler Garcia managed only two points in the first half on a layup from Lombard. The Jaguars shot only 32 percent for the game. Lombard was more aggressive, driving to the basket in the second half and finished with 20 points. Isaac Hirsch scored 15 points for the Jaguars and Garcia had 10 second half points. “To start the game we were a little jittery and little excited,” said Lombard. “Once we settled down and finally got into it that’s when things started to look better in the second half. The first half killed us getting off to that slow start. We ended up down 12 at half. Boys continues on Page 23

No. 1 Valor girls upended on the court The Eagles vow to use the loss as motivation to work harder By Jim Benton
jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Players on the Valor Christian girls basketball team filed out of the dressing room with chips on their shoulders. The Eagles, ranked No. 1 in the CHSSANow.com Class 4A poll, overcame a poor second period and an 18-point deficit with 4:55 left in the game but still fell short in a 67-63 loss to D’Evelyn in a Jan. 29 4A Jefferson County League game in the Valor gym. D’Evelyn, the three-time defending Jeffco champions, improved to 12-4 overall and 8-0 in league play while Valor slipped to 14-2 and 7-1 in the Jeffco. The two teams are in different divisions in the Jeffco and could meet again when the top two teams in each division meet in a two-game playoff to determine playoff seedings. Valor is in a Jeffco division with Littleton, Conifer, Evergreen and Golden. “We obviously would like to have a state championship rather than a league championship,” said Valor senior Kendall Bradbury. “That was just one game for us. “We heard D’Evelyn in the locker room and they were cheering and were really excited. That really
Valor Christian’s Kylie Rose shoots a jump shot during the Jan. 29 game against Valor. It was a battle of teams unbeaten in league play and D’Evelyn hit a pair of free throws in the final seconds to ice the 67-63 win. Photo by Tom Munds stung and it hurt. So we have a little chip on our shoulder. We don’t care where we drop in the rankings. We’re going to come out and bust our tails in practice.” Bradbury also recited a little history from last season.
The Eagles lost by 33 points to Sand Creek last January but came back to notch a 67-60 victory over the Scorpions in the Great Eight to advance to the Final Four. “It’s motivation for us,” added Bradbury. “We’ll be fine.”
Valor Christian hopes to have Caroline Bryan, the team’s second leading scorer, back in the lineup by the start of the state playoffs. Bryan watched the D’Evelyn game from the bench with her left ankle in a brace after she was injured in the
Jan. 20 win over Conifer. All Bryan could do was offer support when watching the Eagles play the final 6:32 without a field goal. The Jaguars went on 20-4 run to take a 39-28 halftime lead. Valor was 0-for-9 with five turnovers. “We tried to throw at them what they threw at us,” said Bradbury. “We knew they were going to come in and want to run and jump against us. We wanted to run and jump against them, but we just didn’t talk and rotate. “They shot great. We just rushed our shots and we couldn’t finish. We started playing team basketball and that helped us make our comeback.” D’Evelyn was ahead by 18 points at 62-44 with 4:55 to play in the game. However, the Jaguars turned the ball over eight times the rest of the game and Valor’s 19-3 spurt trimmed the visitors’ lead to 65-63 with 6.9 seconds to play but Aubrey Sotolongo hit two free throws to seal the win. “I applaud the effort in the fourth quarter,” said Valor coach Jessika Caldwell. “There are a lot of things we can do better in the other three quarters. “Part of it was being able to handle their tempo and the way they push the ball. D’Evelyn played a great game. They took it to us and they answered every shot that we maybe answered. And when we didn’t score they did so they took advantage of opportunities, and we just came up a little short.” Girls continues on Page 23

Golden Eagles win on the ice Mountain Vista hockey team battles to 4-1 victory over Cherry Creek By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Sounds accompanying the battle on the ice included lusty cheers, the pop of pads and the crash of players checked into the boards on Jan 31 in the prep hockey game Mountain Vista outscored Cherry Creek, 4-1. “It was a tough game against a very good hockey team,” said Lev Cohen, Mountain Vista coach. “It was a battle. The shorthanded goal set the tone for us as we just stuck with our game plan of putting the puck deep and working from there.” The Cherry Creek coach said, minus a couple mistakes, his team played great. “We played well and the intensity was good the whole game,” Bruins Coach Jeff Mielnicki said after the game. “On that first goal, we gave away the break-away and that short-handed goal was a killer. It didn’t help that we missed a couple empty net opportunities. But, the game is now history, and we’ll work to get better and move forward from here.” The game was a cross-division clash and doesn’t impact either team’s league standings. Mountain Vista came into the game 10-1-1 overall and the 8-1 record put them in second place in the Peak League. The Bruins came in at 11-1 overall and their 8-1

Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Fla., (Jan. 20, 2015) – A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V rocket carrying the third Mobile User Objective System satellite for the United States Navy launched from Space Launch Complex-41 at 8:04 p.m. EST today. The MUOS-3 spacecraft will ensure continued mission capability of the existing Ultra High Frequency Satellite Communications system that will provide improved and assured mobile communications to the warfighter. “The ULA team is honored to deliver this critical mission into orbit for the
U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force with the support of our many mission partners,” said Jim Sponnick, ULA vice president, Atlas and Delta Programs. “The MUOS3 spacecraft is the heaviest payload to launch atop an Atlas V launch vehicle. The Atlas V generated more than two and half million pounds of thrust at liftoff to meet the demands of lifting this nearly 7.5-ton satellite. Today’s launch was the 200th Atlas-Centaur launch – a very sincere congratulations to the many women and men responsible for the incredible success of the Centaur upper stage over the last 5 decades!” This mission was launched aboard an Atlas V Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) 551 configuration vehicle, which includes a 5-meter diameter payload fairing along with five Aerojet Rocketdyne solid rocket motors attached to the Atlas booster. The Atlas booster for this mission was powered by the RD AMROSS RD-180 engine and the Centaur upper stage was powered by the Aerojet Rocketdyne RL10C-1 engine. This is ULA’s 1st launch in 2015, the 52nd Atlas V mission and the fifth Atlas V 551 launch. MUOS is a next-generation narrowband tactical satellite communications system designed to significantly improve
Players rapidly moved up and down the ice during the fast-pace Jan. 31 Mountain Vista-Cherry Creek game. Good shots proved hard to come by as both teams played hard-hitting defense. Cherry Creek was on a power play midway through the first period when Golden Eagle senior Reid Goodman intercepted a pass, raced up the ice and put the puck in the net. Mountain Vista added a second period goal by Derek Nead, assisted by Bryan Hancock. Late in the period, Tanner Gillis scored for the Golden Eagles on an assist from Kaden Stewart to put Mountain Vista up 3-0. The Bruins made the game closer seconds later when Bruin sophomore Sam Harris put the puck in the net on an assist from Kody Poon to make the score 3-1. Play in the fourth quarter went up and down the ice as the Bruins sought to score and the Golden Eagles battled to protect their lead. Late in the period, Cherry Creek sought to push the attack and pulled the goalie. But Mountain Vista took advantage as Goodman scored an empty net goal on an assist by Charlie Friedman. Goodman was on the penalty-killing line in the first period, and he saw a pass coming, picked it off and pushed up the ice. “I saw the goalie’s position and shot low to the wide side of the net and it went in,” he said. “It was a physical game, a fast-pace game and that is how we like it.” He said it not his first two-goal game but he has no personal goals for the season. “My only goal was to help our team to get to the playoffs and win state,” he said.

“Usually in the first half I start off trying to get my teammates involved, getting them some shots, getting them ready. Usually in the second half is when I try to control the game a little more.” Grams feels Lombard needs to shoot more. “Mitch is a special kid, and the thing about him is he’s so unselfish,” said Grams. “He doesn’t understand that people can’t guard him. I told him
in our post game that he’s got a find a way to get going earlier. If he gets going, it’s going to open things up for everybody else. “Most good players, Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson, they thought that way, too, but I actually think it should be the opposite for Mitch.” Ortiz admitted that Pirog was the difference in the game although Noah Szilagyi was a factor with 12 points. “They had a hard time guarding Zach,” said Ortiz. “They didn’t have an answer. Their guards are pretty good, but our big kid is pretty tough. It’s so difficult to keep in front
their guards. We did a great job in first half. “We’re getting better and that’s a positive. And winning on the road is a positive. We’re about the destination, but it’s about the journey too. We’re playing for a first seed, a one seed, and right now we’re in position and Rock Canyon is in position for a two seed. This loss doesn’t hurt their ranking at all.” Regis Jesuit coach Ken Shaw was at the game. Rock Canyon played the top-ranked Raiders Feb. 3. ThunderRidge plays Regis Feb. 10.

Bradbury led the Eagles with 24 points. Heidi Hammond scored 13, Makenna Roth, who is filling in for Bryan, added 12 points. Madison McCoy had 11 points, including three straight free throws with 6.9 seconds left in the game to pull Valor within two points. “Ultimately what we’re seeing for us with-
out the presence of Caroline is other girls having to take more of a role,” said Caldwell. “They are trying to figure out what that looks like. Fifteen points, five boards and five steals (Bryan’s statistics) is a big hole to fill.” Bradbury, the league’s scoring leader at 22.3 points per game, misses Bryan who provided another threat for opposing players to defend. “It’s tough playing without Caroline who is our other leading
scorer,” said Bradbury. “But this is just going to make us work harder.” Caldwell called her final timeout early. “Down 18, coach called our last timeout and said, look I don’t have any more timeouts left and I just want you to give it your full heart. She said I’m so proud to be your coach. Just go out and show them what Valor basketball is. We just kind of calmed down and played defense and didn’t really worry about the scoreboard.”
