Highlands Ranch High gets new leader Page to leave assistant principal post at Rock Canyon for top job By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Rock Canyon High School Assistant Principal Chris Page first walked the halls of Highlands Ranch High as a student teacher. Starting next fall, he’ll do so as its principal. Principal Jerry Goings is retiring at the end of the academic year, concluding 10 years at the school’s helm. Page knows Goings will be a tough act to follow. “They are big shoes,” he said. “I want to be able to bring a little bit of Chris Page there but honor some of the great work that’s been happening at the school.” Goings believes Page is ideally suited for the position, citing his historic ties to the school and district. “He loves kids, has a real strong connection to our community,” he said. “I’m excited for Chris. I think he’ll do a great job.”
A 2003 graduate of Adams State College, Page had “a great experience” as a student teacher at Highlands Ranch. He never dreamed then he’d someday lead that or any school. “Since sixth grade, I wanted to be a teacher,” said the 36-year-old. “But I thought I was going to teach for about 30 years, retire, get on a school board and get into politics. That was my plan.” That plan changed as his teaching career continued. Page was among the first teachers hired at Rocky Heights Middle School, and opened Rock Canyon High School as a football, track and wrestling coach. He’s been involved in almost every area of the school: teaching, creating classes, coaching the mock trial team and moving up the ladder to dean and finally assistant principal.

Cranelli’s known for food, fun, service Family-owned eatery has fans happily waiting in line By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Jen Fewel ignored dire warnings about a record snowstorm to eat at her favorite Lone Tree restaurant Feb. 20. Cranelli’s is more than 20 miles from her home near downtown Denver. She dines there at least once a month. “I’ve become very addicted,” said Fewel, who first sampled the restaurant’s food at the 2014 Taste of Lone Tree. “It’s small and it’s crazy and you usually have to wait. But if you come in a restaurant and it’s empty, that’s an indication of the food. The fact that people are willing to wait? That says something. “And her personality,” she said, gesturing at co-owner Lasinda Crane, “is fantastic. It adds to the ambiance.” Crane and her husband, longtime Lone Tree chef Jimmy Crane, regularly welcome a standing-room-only crowd of diners to the 44-seat Italian restaurant on the ground floor of the Crest apartments. Its funky location and limited seating capacity don’t deter Cranelli’s many fans, who patiently wait their turn for a weekend night table or barstool. Yelp, Open Table and TripAdvisor reviewers give Cranelli’s an average 4.5 of 5 stars, based on hundreds of reviews. “You might have to stand in line, but
The Douglas County School District’s Facebook page flamed with angry messages the snowy morning of Feb. 26. “I thought safety was a priority for DCSD; guess not!” “DCSD = Don’t Call Snow Days.” “Valor and Regis are closed. I guess we don’t pay enough to keep our kids safe.” Almost all the 135 posts were from parents, all but a handful upset the district had not canceled or delayed classes. Jeffco and Denver public and several private schools canceled. Two rural Douglas County elementary schools were on 90-minute delays, but all other district schools were on a normal schedule. In Douglas County, consideration about whether or not to cancel or delay classes began about 3 a.m., when most parents and students were sound asleep. That’s when the district sends teams of drivers from the maintenance and transportation Snow day continues on Page 9
Chef and co-owner Jimmy Crane is a whirlwind as he moves around the kitchen on a busy Friday night. you’re always welcome here,” said longtime Lone Tree resident Fred Kaserman. “If food is your number one priority, it’s excellent here. So is the hospitality.” Most recently the site of Chicago R Dogs, a restaurant that sold an ambitiously unique combination of hot dogs and Asian food, the Park Meadows Drive site also was home to Luca’s Jersey Pizza.
Cranelli’s has easily overcome its predecessors’ obstacles, straining the small parking lot’s capacity on Friday and Saturday nights. Wait staff have learned to nimbly navigate the obstacle course of tables and people, hoisting plates hot with steaming pasta high above diners. Cranelli’s continues on Page 9

Wish Week recipient’s family grateful
Parker boy now strong, free of cancer, says mom
Douglas County students learning to give
By Jane Reuter
By Jane Reuter
jreuter @coloradocommunitymedia.com
jreuter @coloradocommunitymedia.com Jennifer Griffin said the news of her 6-year-old son’s cancer diagnosis felt like a punch in the stomach. “All the air goes out of you,” the Parker mom said. “You can’t breathe.” Jeremy Griffin was diagnosed with lymphoblastic lymphoma, a relatively rare but aggressive cancer most common in children. Because Jeremy had already suffered from allergies and asthma, his parents attributed breathing problems that began in March 2014 to those conditions. By the time they learned otherwise, doctors told them Jeremy might not survive the weekend. “The tumor had completely taken over his left lung, had moved over into the right and had grown around his heart and his airway; it was pretty much taking over most of his chest cavity,” Jennifer said. Doctors treated him with heavy doses of steroids. “That’s when the miracle started,” his mother said. The cancer responded so well to treatment that Jeremy was home within seven days. He’s since had nine months of chemotherapy, and has 34 more months to go to ensure every cancer cell is gone. “As far as they can see, the cancer is completely gone,” Jennifer said. “His hair is coming back. He’s in school. He’s super strong.” Strong as he is, Jeremy is also shy. So when the Mountain View Elementary student was put center stage at Rock Canyon High School as its 2015 MakeA-Wish Colorado Wish Week recipient, he smiled shyly and stayed tight to his mother’s side. The sound of 2,000 teens shouting, “We love Jeremy” astounded the family, which also includes Jeremy’s father Mike and sister, Natalie. “I’ve been overwhelmed with everything they’ve been doing, in a good way,” Mike said midway through the week highlighted by benefit dinners, sporting events and other activities. “What has really impressed us about these kids is they didn’t just focus on Jeremy, but they took in Natalie, too,” Jennifer said. “That made a huge difference for Natalie because this year, a majority of the attention went to Jeremy.” The Griffins are no stranger to hospitals. Natalie, 11, was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when she was 2, a chronic condition.
From right, Jennifer, Jeremy and Natalie Griffin take in donations made during Rock Canyon’s Miracle Minute during the Feb. 20 opening rally for Wish Week. Photo by Jane Reuter “Jeremy will tell you all the time that his is temporary and Natalie’s is forever,” Jennifer said. “I think this has made him more appreciative of what Natalie goes through, to be sick every single day. “Both of our kiddos have had to handle more than kiddos should have to handle. Because of that, we do tend more toward the childhood experiences.” The family is making plans to go together to fulfill Jeremy’s Make-A-Wish Foundation wish for a Disney cruise. “We have so much to be thankful for,” said Jennifer. She hopes RCHS kids feel their gratitude, and also gain insight from the family’s story. “I hope it makes a difference for those kids, so they can see that not everybody gets to coast through,” she said. “As teenagers especially, you feel you’re invincible. But we all have our problems.”
Rock Canyon High School gets the spotlight for its record-setting MakeA-Wish Foundation Wish Week totals, but it’s hardly the only Douglas County High School that raises money for Make-A-Wish or other organizations. In 2015, Make-A-Wish expects to receive a total of about $200,000 from Douglas County Schools. Mountain Vista High School also raised an astronomical amount during its 2015 Wish Week: About $53,000. Rock Canyon accumulated its record-setting $72,500 in 2014. This year, it raised $65,700. The average cost to grant a child’s wish is $7,500, which means DCSD schools are making wishes come true for 26 children. “It’s just insane; we are not complaining,” Make-A-Wish Colorado spokeswoman Amanda Ford said. “I think other schools use Rock Canyon for inspiration and some of the different schools are catching up to them.” Mountain Vista student leadership director Lindsey Jaffe agreed, saying students, “went crazy this year, in a very good way.” Despite its close proximity to Mountain Vista, Jaffe said Rock Canyon wasn’t a factor in her school’s Wish Week frenzy. “Our goal was $50,000,” she said. “Anything above that was awesome.” Mountain Vista’s Wish Week re-
cipient was a 4-year-old Littleton boy who is blind and suffers from both epilepsy and other conditions. Their fundraising easily granted his wish to go to Disneyland. “The kids just bought in,” Jaffe said. “School spirit is at an all-time high. Pride is at an all-time high. It’s the support we have at our games, for our plays — just everything in general. We have a really great administration, an awesome staff, great kids and great parents. When we have these crazy idea, they’re all super supportive.” Douglas County and Legend high schools each raised more than $15,000 in 2015. ThunderRidge students brought in more than $20,000 during their Wish Week. Ponderosa and Chaparral high schools will hold their Wish Week events in March and April, respectively. Highlands Ranch High School participates in the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Pennies for Patients school fundraiser. Castle View High School will participate in a week of fundraisers in March to benefit the Muanjadi Organization, a nonprofit that helps young girls in the Congo complete their high school education, avoid an early arranged marriage and have better lives. Feeder elementary and middle schools also participate in many of the fundraisers, holding their own events to add to the collection.
Correction A story in last week’s edition on the Douglas County School District’s capital needs included an incorrect figure about potential new bond revenue. School district budget director Scott
Smith said asking taxpayers to maintain current tax levels could allow the district to issue up to about $200 million in new bonds without impacting homeowners’ tax bills.

Iditarod event celebrates dog lineage Live wolves to be part of event at CU South Denver By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com How often does one have the chance to meet a friendly wolf? A pair of wolves will stop by the Liniger Building at CU South Denver from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. March 7 to mark the beginning of the Iditarod, the “last great race on Earth,” said Christopher Goetz, special events coordinator for CU South Denver, formerly The Wildlife Experience conservation education museum. It’s the fourth annual event highlighting the Iditarod, a 1,000-mile dog-sled race across the Alaskan tundra. Visitors can catch a live feed of the start of the race on a 53-foot screen and cheer on Colorado resident Lachlan Clarke as he embarks
on his ninth Iditarod. It’s all part of a celebration of dogs and their lineage. Guests will receive a history lesson in how canines came to be man and woman’s best friend, Goetz says. Kids and adults alike have the opportunity to pet the wolves and have their picture taken with them. Experts will talk about how modern dogs descended from wolves and became integrated into society, not only as family pets, but as rescuers, trackers, herders, suspect-takedown specialists and therapy companions, to name a few canine careers. “It’s tracing that history from these wolves all the way to what is going on nowadays,” Goetz said. “They’re just such amazing creatures.” Last year, 5-year-old Jordan Usdrowski, of Larkspur, had the chance to hang out with “Ghost” and “Waya,” a pair of docile, people-loving wolves from Colorado Wolf Adventures, a rescue based in Woodland Park. Trainers “take time and care to accli-
mate the wolves from a young age to humans,” Goetz said. It’s a rare opportunity to interact with live wolves while simultaneously learning about their history and status as they are reintroduced into parts of the Rocky Mountains. “You get a nice educational experience instead of just a quick photo,” Goetz said. “When you see and feel the wolves in person, it’s fairly stunning.” The event will dive into wildlife protection solutions and the use of technology to preserve certain species. A demonstration will show how drones are being used to track endangered wildlife, as well as the poachers who hunt them. The cost to attend is $10 for adults, $9 for seniors and $6 for children and includes access to the entire museum, which is located at 10035 Peoria Street. Purchase tickets online at http://www.ucdenver.edu/about/ southdenver/ProgramsEvents or call 720-488-3344.

League of Women Voters expands reach Arapahoe County unit brings Douglas into fold By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com This is not your grandma’s League of Women Voters, say Marlu Burkamp, Jo Feder and Maggi Markey. They are three of the 103 members — three of whom are men — of what was the Arapahoe County unit. It recently expanded and is now the League of Women Voters of Arapahoe and Douglas counties. “Somebody started counting up how many Douglas County members there were, and it was 25 percent,” said Markey. “It just seemed logical to rebrand ourselves.” It’s not the first time the group has expanded its reach as the issues themselves become
more regional. It started out as the Littleton League of Women Voters, but now it tackles topics like land use, education, urban renewal and fracking that affect the county and its neighbors. “Everything begins locally,” said Burkamp. “It behooves people to look at local politics and evaluate what’s going on.” The women stress that the LWV is a nonpartisan group that supports issues, not candidates, and only after careful study and general consensus. It’s perhaps best known for hosting balanced candidate and issue forums. In fact, the group recently canceled one for the special election in Littleton because one side backed out. They know sometimes the league is cast as left-leaning, but they say there are Democrats, Republicans and plenty of independents in their mix. “Most Republicans I know support these
WHAT THE HAIL! - The Preferred Local Roofing Company for Many Insurance Companies, Hundreds of Agents, and Thousands of Coloradans - No Creepy Door Knockers - Free Inspections
social issues, because they’re really not Democrat or Republican issues, they’re women’s issues,” said Feder. The national league celebrated its 95th birthday on Valentine’s Day, born of the suffragette movement. “The founders said now that women have the right to vote, they’d better act intelligently, and they’d better get educated,” said Markey. Thanks to the success of the suffragettes, LVW has at times seen its numbers dwindle as women went off to work and their lives got busier. But many of today’s members originally joined during the feminist movement in the 1960s and ‘70s. “Back in the ‘60s, there were a lot of young women who had very good educations, and they needed something more than staying home with the children,” said Markey. “Studying the issues and being involved, I think, filled an intellectual need for them. I think
many of those same people have had very successful careers, and now they’re coming back. They’re retired, but they still have energy and interest.” Indeed, all three are now retired. But Markey was an attorney and the first woman to be elected county commissioner in Boulder. Feder was in human relations, and Burkamp was a reporter who went on to be a marketing professional. While still very much committed to the league, they’re hoping a younger generation will step up to swell their ranks. “You do learn a lot, and it gives you an opportunity to interact with people who have similar issues,” said Markey. “When you try to research alone, you don’t have the benefit of highly intelligent people to bounce your ideas off of.” For more information, visit www.lwvarapahoedouglas.org or call 303-730-2356.

Highlands Ranch principal saying goodbye Go
Goings will step down after decade at helm Staff report Highlands Ranch High School Principal Jerry Goings will step down at the end of the 2014-15 academic year, concluding a decade as the school’s leader. Beloved and admired by students, staff and district leaders, Goings said leaving the school for the last time will not be easy. “I’m definitely ready,” he said, but added, “I love this school; it will be kind of hard to let go of it. Sixty-five to 70 percent of the staff here were hired by me. This is my child. I’m giving it over to Chris.” Rock Canyon High School Assistant Principal Chris Page will be High-

lands Ranch High’s new principal next fall. Goings, 55, has spent the last 32 years in public education. He intends to start a new career in education consulting, citing his passion for both educational leadership, public education and students. “I refuse to believe those who say ‘What’s wrong with young people today?’ ” he said. “No, we are in great hands. I see their compassion and caring for others. These kids, these parents, this community, is amazing.” Goings was an assistant principal at Douglas County High School before coming to Highlands Ranch in 2005. Goings and his wife, Tana, live in Castle Rock and are the parents of 26-year-old triplets. Their two daughters both are teachers in the Douglas County School District.
Page Continued from Page 1
When the Highlands Ranch principal position opened, Page talked with Rock Canyon Principal Andy Abner about the possibility of applying for it. Abner encouraged him to ponder the three things that define him, and emphasize those in his interview. “I believe I’m a man of character,” Page said. “And I love kids; that’s why I do the job. I love community and building community; that’s something I’m really strong at. I
said (during my interview) that if those are the three things that Highlands Ranch High School feels they want or need or could benefit from, then I’m their guy.” HRHS, which opened in 1985, is the third oldest high school in Douglas County and the oldest in Highlands Ranch. Built in a more traditional style than the three newer Highlands Ranch high schools, and in a community that’s no longer enjoying robust growth, the school has experienced declining enrollment in recent years. The school serves about 1,600 students, but the school district projects enrollment to increase as the economy recovers. Page hopes to restore some of the school’s
allure. “There are a number of students that are choosing to go to places like Rock Canyon, Mountain Vista or Chaparral because of the programming available there,” he said. “One of the challenges I’ll have as a principal is how do we make the programming that’s there stronger. We put ourselves as the beacon of what excellence in education can be.” ACT scores are up, Page said, and the school has several National Merit finalists and claimed two of the district’s four 2014 DCSD Boettcher scholars. “But I think it’s also because Rock Canyon is so new that you see a lot more publicity about those things (at RCHS),” Page said. “I don’t know if they celebrate that as much. I think that’s part of our challenge, to make sure the whole Douglas County community

Governor: Oil, gas rules must protect mineral owners’ rights By Dan Elliot
Associated Press Any attempt to give local governments more control over oil and gas drilling in Colorado must protect the rights of people who own underground mineral rights, Gov. John Hickenlooper said Feb. 27. Some people have owned or leased those rights for decades, long before Colorado’s growing cities spread onto land above rich oil and gas deposits, Hickenlooper said. “What right does government have to take that person’s lease away from them?” he said. “Through no fault of their own, the march of suburbanization, suddenly their lease is worth less than it was.” Surface owners’ property rights should also be protected, Hickenlooper said, adding that energy companies are required to pay for damage. Noise, dust and other effects should also be taken into account, he said. Asked if he would support stronger compensation rules for surface owners, the governor said he would want to see the specifics. “I certainly wouldn’t go there without
having something in front of me and making sure it’s fair to all concerned,” he said. Hickenlooper spoke on the same day that his oil and gas task force submitted nine recommendations for easing tension created by the oil and gas industry in the state, often when wells are drilled near homes and schools. Hickenlooper Most Colorado wells use hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, which pumps a high-pressure mix of water, sand and chemicals to break up underground formations and release oil and gas. Public concern about the health, safety and environmental effects has worsened the tensions. The task force suggested giving local governments a consulting role in the location of large oil and gas facilities, such as wells and storage tanks, in urban areas. But proposals to give cities and counties the power to make their own rules didn’t get the necessary two-thirds vote to become a recommendation.
That brought criticism from many, including at least two people on the 21-member task force: co-chairwoman Gwen Lachelt and member Matt Sura. Hickenlooper said the criticism was unfair and that the panel made good progress toward easing the state’s conflicts. Other recommendations in the panel’s final report include expanding the staffs of state agencies that regulate oil and gas and monitor public health; creating an oil and gas information clearinghouse; studying ways to reduce heavy truck traffic to and from oilfield sites; and asking the Legislature to endorse new state rules on pollution. Hickenlooper said he would not tell the Legislature or regulators whether or not the recommendations should be enacted. But he said he supported them. “I think all nine of them make a lot of sense,” he said. He defended the state’s health and safety protections and said Colorado’s oil and gas regulations are among the strongest in the nation. “Is it perfect? Are we done? No,” he said.
“My guess is ... in the years to come we’ll have higher standards still.” Other states are struggling with how to regulate oil and gas as fracking spreads. New York banned fracking last year, but Hickenlooper has said a ban wouldn’t work in Colorado because it would hurt a valuable industry and leave the state vulnerable to lawsuits alleging an improper “taking” of energy companies’ property. In New York, fracking would have occurred relatively close to aquifers, natural underground water reservoirs, Hickenlooper said. Fracking wells in Colorado are a mile away from aquifers, he said. There have been no instances where the fracking process itself has contaminated water, only cases in which the lining of a well has failed or when chemicals were spilled above ground, he said. The state has come down hard on energy companies for those kinds of incidents, Hickenlooper said.

Seek inspiration for motivation creation Motivation is one of those things that really has an impact on everyone, especially those facing a lack of motivation. And when I have this discussion with people and with organizations, I hear all kinds of responses and rationale for why some people are extremely self-motivated or driven and how others just seem to be inspirationally challenged. Motivators, the motivated, and the unmotivated come in all shapes and sizes, from all walks of life, and from every age category. Many companies I work with or talk with have expressed a challenge with motivating their millennial employees as well as the people on their staff that are nearing retirement. The millennials don’t seem to be motivated by the same things that their managers, executives, or owners are motivated by, and those looking down the corridor of retirement are no longer motivated by the projects, opportunities, and potential that once excited them years before. All of us, regardless of our age or occupation, have probably battled the lack of motivation or inspiration at some point in our lives. Even the most optimistic and motivated people I know deal with setbacks such as financial issues, health crises, family situations, and work-related stress. And again, even the most inspired people can take a day off or maybe even a week or month away from their motivated lives. Now I can share with you that I have seen retirees and children of all ages and people
from every age group in between eventually find their source of inspiration, or recapture that motivated feeling. And in every case, not just some of the cases, but every single case, the person has agreed that regardless of everything else happening around them, their lives were happier and more productive. So what motivates you? Is it volunteering? Helping others achieve success? Skiing? Golfing? A healthy body? A devoted spiritual life? Your children? Your spouse? A new opportunity? Your business? Music? Your friends? Someone who has reached or achieved success? Your own goals and dreams? The sun? The snow? A smile? A hug? Something else? I am sure if we all gave some time to sit and think about what truly inspires us and pursued each with passion and commitment, that we would also enjoy our lives and feel more productive each and every day. So for the manager who struggles with managing the millennials on your staff, help them discover what motivates them. For
parents who are seeing a child that is less than motivated, challenge them a little to talk about what excites them, what they want to be, who their heroes are, and help them find that spark of inspiration. For those of you nearing retirement or already retired, remember what you enjoyed most about what you have accomplished and maybe find ways to inspire others or share your stories and best practices with those coming up behind you. As I write this column, hundreds of ideas are flooding my mind with ways that I can further motivate myself as well as things that I can still complete today that will give me a sense of satisfaction, gratitude, and achievement. I am motivated for sure. As a matter of fact, I will start writing the list of things that I will do today and this week and that will motivate me even more. And I encourage you to try the same exercise and see if you don’t find a little spark of inspiration along the way for yourself. How about you, how is your motivational level these days? Do you need a jump-start or are you flying high towards the achievement of your goals and dreams, feeling happy and productive each day? Either way I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we find our motivators in life, it really will be a better than good week.

Some who get in elevator deserve to get the shaft If you had to get stuck in an elevator with someone, who would you want it to be or not to be? I wouldn’t want to get stuck in an elevator with that guy who sells OxiClean. Ree Drummond, “The Pioneer Woman.” I don’t think anyone wants to be around anyone who is grinning all of the time. Hear that, Joel Osteen? Gives me the creeps. Here’s the rest of my list: Nancy Grace. Brent Musburger. Guy Fieri. Fieri can’t even pronounce “Fieri.” I wouldn’t want to be in a stalled elevator with Suze Orman. She would look right though me and see my credit card debts. But I would finally get to ask her, “What’s up with the hair?” I couldn’t handle Roberto Benigni. After a while, he would be hanging upside down. I would rather not be in the same time zone with Wayne LaPierre, much less an unmoving elevator. That “Nobody beats the King” kid. Shut up and go to school. “The View.” That would do me in. Lena Dunham. “Girls” is a lot like watching unattractive people doing laundry in their underwear. Kanye West. Outside of his wife, who can stand him? Outside of him, who can stand his wife? Dinger. Dinger is an embarrassment to baseball. On the other hand.
I would like to have some music, while we were waiting for maintenance. The Everly Brothers. Wouldn’t that be something? “Love of my life, come close to me, say you will always be true.” If you have been following right along with me, you could probably guess a few of these: Groucho Marx, W.C. Fields and Steven Wright. Charles Dickens, Oscar Wilde, Mark Twain. Katharine Hepburn. Audrey Hepburn. Raymond Chandler. It’s going to get crowded in there, like the “Night at the Opera” stateroom scene. I would have Alfred Hitchcock tell his great elevator story, and ask him to time it so that it nearly ended when the doors opened. Hitchcock and a friend entered an elevator on the 25th floor of the St. Regis Hotel in New York in 1964. They rode in silence to the 19th floor, where three well-dressed people entered the elevator. Hitchcock then began to tell a story. “Well.
It was quite shocking, there was blood everywhere.” He developed the narrative on the way down, undoubtedly keeping track of the floors they were passing, until he almost but not quite finished the story. “Blood all around! Well, I looked at the poor fellow and I said, ‘Good God, man, what’s happened to you?’” When the elevator reached the lobby and the doors opened, Hitchcock said, “And do you know what he told me?” Then Hitchcock and his friend walked out, leaving the other three passengers in suspense. He had made up the whole thing. “That’s just my elevator story.” I wouldn’t mind suffering through our rescue with Grace Kelly nearby. It would be wonderful to finally meet Ogden Nash. “The trouble with a kitten is that eventually it becomes a cat.” Dorothy Parker. Parker Posey. Why not? Anita Ekberg. The “La Dolce Vita” Anita Ekberg. “My eyes are up here, Craig.” I’d kind of like to know what H.L. Mencken had to say. And there’s one more. I’d be very happy if Buddy Holly was on the elevator too, so I could say “Thank you.” Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

Colorado pot bringing harm to Nebraska As attorney general of Nebraska, I have had many people ask me why my state is suing Colorado over its marijuana law. This is a question that requires thoughtful consideration because, left unchallenged, I am confident Colorado’s law will cause long-term harm to Nebraska families. In 2012, Colorado voters legalized marijuana for recreational use. This recreational use law followed on the heels of prior passage of a medical marijuana use bill which very loosely enforced the concept of “medical.” In doing so, Colorado took a federally recognized Schedule I illegal drug, as defined by the Controlled Substances Act of 1970, and launched into what Colorado officials are finding is uncharted territory. Colorado’s own appointed marijuana czar, Andrew Freedman, admitted, “I do worry about if we are irreparably harming Colorado. And it’s something that will take years to suss out (grasp).” Additionally, Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper

confessed, “We don’t know what the unintended consequences are” of legalizing marijuana.

There is no question that Colorado’s marijuana

A balanced approach in data collection and leadership-follow through will help propel our school district into contention with other districts pursuing 21st century goals. I cannot imagine a person within our community who does not want our schools to be ranked in first place. Aligning goals with community needs is a balancing act that will be reached with proactive leadership.

departments out to test the roads. Some are in cars, other in school buses. “They crisscross the county and determine if it’s safe to drive on the roads,” said Thomas Tsai, the district’s chief operation officer. At 4 a.m., the district holds a conference call that includes drivers, representatives from Douglas County and the sheriff’s office. In all, more than 35 people have input in the decision. On Feb. 26, the team concluded most of the snow accumulation was on the west side of the metro area and the roads were safe for district employees and students. “Almost any decision we make, you’re guaranteed to have somebody frustrated,”

practices have and will continue to harm Nebraskans, and thus it is incumbent upon Nebraska to take action. A 2009 study published in The Lancet reported that one out of six adolescents aged 13-19 who try marijuana will become addicted. The number of addicted youth will likely increase due to the extremely dangerous THC levels in Colorado marijuana products, known to be the highest potency in the world. The method of use is also made more attractive for adolescents when delivered in such forms as gummy bears, power drinks and candy bars. The addiction potential for adolescents is a significant risk, according to the Federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. An April 2014 neuroscience study, jointly produced by the medical schools of Northwestern University and Harvard University, concluded that, based upon high-resolution MRI scans, young recreational users of marijuana, aged 18 to 21, did show noticeable structural abnormalities in regions of the brain that affect memory, attention, concentration and impulses. This is objective medical evidence of physical harm to the developing brain. A June 2014 article published in the New England Journal of Medicine reported that marijuana use in adolescents negatively impacted the functional connectivity of the brain, creating a significant decline in IQ. Additionally, regular use of marijuana by young people is associated with increased risk for anxiety, depression and psychosis, including schizophrenia. This is especially true for young people who have a pre-existing genetic

Or it could be the staff, described by reviewers as “fantastically friendly,” “very engaging,” and “incredibly refreshing.” “I want to please,” said Lasinda Crane, formerly the manager at the Park Meadows Nordstrom’s eBar. “I want to make people feel like they’re 100 percent taken care of. If someone is kind enough to walk through my doors and spend money on a meal, they’re going to feel like they’re in my home and they’re taken care of. “It’s the taking care of people I love — the fact that I can know exactly what you need before you even ask for it.” Brittany Baker, whom the Cranes adopted when she was 17, learned from her mother and shares her sunny disposition. “She imprinted her personality on me when I was 17,” said Baker, who also works at Cranelli’s, along with the Cranes’ son Connor.

closure around the patio to give people a warm place to wait and add a few seats. But that’s as far as their current plans extend. “In this community, I’ve learned you really need to be about the community,” Lasinda said. “We wanted a place where, when people walk through the door, we know who they are.” They fear an expansion could cost Cranelli’s its charm, pulling the Cranes away from their current close customer connections in their efforts to manage it. “I just want to have a great time doing what I’m doing,” said Lasinda. And she wants customers to have a great time, too. “The whole package — I think that’s what everybody walks away with here. They feel like they’re wanted, they’re taken care of, and they had some pretty great food, too.”
Tsai said, “and we recognize that.” Complicating the weighty decision is Douglas County’s size. “This is a county of about 846 square miles — well over half the size of Rhode Island,” Tsai said. “The storm (of Feb. 25) didn’t hit the county uniformly. Few storms do. I’d love to say everything looks the same from Larkspur to Highlands Ranch, but we did the best with the data we saw at 4 a.m. in terms of our recommendation.” The heavier snowfall on the west prompted the 90-minute delay for Larkspur and Sedalia schools. Because people have differing levels of confidence about driving in snow, Tsai said parents can keep their children home during inclement weather without any repercussion to the student’s attendance record. Neighboring Cherry Creek School District also took some heat for not canceling classes. And up north, parents criticized Boulder Valvulnerability, according to studies cited by the National Institutes of Health. This mental health threat will only compound the burden upon Nebraska’s mental health system. Colorado’s legalization of recreational use and the Department of Justice’s lack of enforcement of federal law has allowed for the rapid development of a multi-million-dollar impairment industry. Those in this exploitative business seek to shift the public’s perception to believe marijuana is harmless, but at the same time the impairment industry is making its products increasingly more potent. Robert MacCoun, a behavioral scientist at the University of California-Berkeley who has studied drug policy here and abroad, calls it an “arms race, in which growers strive to create the highest-octane varieties, and then bestow awards on themselves at the annual Cannabis Cup competition. “ Law enforcement statistics from the Nebraska State Patrol confirm that approximately twice as much marijuana is seized from Colorado as that trafficked from Mexico and California. The state and county law enforcement costs continue to rise. Ideally, the citizens of Colorado would repeal this law, following the lead of five of its cities that have already voted to ban recreational use. Repeal in Colorado is made more difficult because commercial enterprise has been unleashed and tax revenue is now being generated. Some might call Colorado progressive for opening up the gates to the impairment industry. However, those who are not driven by profit or recreational escapism more wisely understand the real danger of this social experiment. Nebraska has only one real choice, to uphold the law that exists for the protection of the public and the well-being of Nebraska’s families. We must not subject our youth to such a costly social experiment. Doug Peterson is Nebraska’s attorney general.

In Cherry Creek, if the district has more than two snow days, officials must then decide to either add days to the school calendar or convert teacher workdays to regular class time. “I can tell you parents will be pleased with neither option,” said Tustin Amole, the district’s director of communications. “They look

Donald James Matte
Sept. 18, 1958 – Feb. 16. 2015
Donald James Matte, 56, of Highlands Ranch, Colorado passed away on Monday, February 16th at University of Colorado Hospital. Don was born on September 18th, 1958 in Church Point, Louisiana. He grew up there until his family moved to Denver. He was a graduate of Thornton High School. Don married Mary Lauderbaugh on April 15th, 1989. They had two sons, Dylan and Lucas. They are his world and his pride and joy. While Don’s life revolved around his family, he loved to socialize, work out at the gym, take his boys to the flea market, play basketball, and go to the movies. He could also have eaten a full zebra and not
gain a pound, and that dear reader, would be just his breakfast. Don worked hard all his life. For the last 16 years, Don worked as a building engineer for public schools. The students and staff who knew him will certainly miss his genuine character and smile. Don’s greatest gift he imparted on all who knew him was his strength in resilience and his quiet reserve for moving forward. His faith was unshakable. Don is survived by his
wife Mary (Highlands Ranch, CO), two sons; Dylan and Lucas, his father; Dallas (Carol) Lafayette, Louisiana, brothers; Brian (Lori) Aldie, Virginia; Keith (Cristin), Mobile, Alabama), mother-in-law; Rita Lauderbaugh (Bemidji, Minnesota); brother-in-laws Bill, Scott and Jeff; sister-in-laws Angie, Lori, Angie and Leah; nieces and nephews; Sarah, Sawyer, Natalie, Tori, Abby, Grace, Bo, Jack, Lily, Laura, Joseph, Brian, Ashley, and Christopher. He was preceded in death by his mother Mary Alice Matte; sister Phyllis Claire Kline; father-in-law Dale Lauderbaugh; grandparents Laurent and Oza Marie Matte, and Zena and Zola Matte.

Finally, the bill permits money in the marijuana tax fund to be used for the application of any bills approved by the marijuana revenues interim committee. “The federal expectation is that states that have allowed marijuana to be legal, and local governments, will implement strong and an effective regulatory and enforcement systems that will protect public safety, public health and other law enforcement interests,” Aguilar said. “It (the bill) was designed to focus on preventing inappropriate access to medical marijuana by focusing on appropriate physician recommendations for medical marijuana use and severe pain.” The bill diverts medical marijuana from poorly regulated caregivers and also provides a mechanism for law enforcement to differentiate legitimate from illegal cultivation and transportation in the state, Aguilar said.

Medical marijuana growers and patients are inching closer to potential regulations. The Colorado Senate’s Health and Human Services Committee has unanimously passed a comprehensive bill concerning a variety of medical marijuana issues that are not regulated by the state’s revenue department. Under the bill by Sen. Irene Aguilar, D-Denver, the Colorado medical board must adopt rules regarding guidelines for physicians who make medical marijuana recommendations for patients suffering from severe pain, the bill reads. In addition, the bill would require the state health agency to adopt rules and guidelines for primary caregivers to give informed consent to patients that products may contain contaminants and that the THC levels are not verified. The bill highlights that all primary caregivers must register with the state
government. “This bill, in my opinion, is based on a false premise, which is that essentially, patients and caregivers are criminals and tax evaders,” said Terri Robnett, founder of Cannabis Patients Alliance. “What this comes down to for us is whether or not we can trust that these are protections or these are opportunities for law enforcement intrusion.” However, Sens. Linda Newell, DLittleton, and Beth Martinez Humenik, R-Thornton, argued the bill helps to protect constitutional rights afforded through the passing of Amendment 20 from those who are looking to unlawfully benefit from some of the gaps that are present with the medical marijuana industry in Colorado. “There’s a lot of gray area with this,” said Martinez Humenik. “I think when this was originally passed, it opened up Pandora’s box and this is a multi-faceted topic but I don’t think that the bill … the way it is written right now … is meant to take away the rights of people to get the medicinal marijuana … it’s just to make sure, to legitimize, those folks that are actually doing it the right way.” The bill moves to the Senate Appropriations Committee.

S2 Distillery pub guidelines pass House committee 11
Lone Tree Voice 11
March 5, 2015
Craft brew, winery operations are model By Amy Woodward
awoodward @coloradocommunitymedia.com Restaurant distilleries could be a new business choice in Colorado after a bill defining guidelines for distillery pubs passed out of its first House committee last week. Sponsored by Rep. Dan Pabon, DDenver, with Senate co-sponsorship by Sen. Andy Kerr, D-Lakewood, the bill was unanimously approved by lawmakers, which opens doors for the state’s 73 licensed distilleries. “The distillery pub bill allows someone that does not want to be a full-blown manufacturer to open a restaurant that has a small distillery as part of the operation,” said Stephen Gould, owner of Golden Moon Distillery. A distillery pub license, approved by the state and a local government, would be similar to a brewpub or winery license, where the establishment must serve food and wholesale sales are limited. Per the bill, licensed premises could
Jon Tewinkle, head distiller at State-38 distilling in Golden, measures the quantity of sugar in a fermentation tank Feb. 26. A house bill paves the way for Distillery Pubs and allows them to operate with specific guidelines similar to brew pubs such as CB Potts. Photo by Amy Woodward not ferment or distill more than 2,700 liters or 300 cases per product per year on the premises, and the total limit on annu-
al production of spirits would be 45,000 liters or 5,000 cases. “We just want to make sure we keep it
small and local because that has been the model that’s made brew pubs so successful in Colorado,” Sen. Andy Kerr said. CB Potts and Ironworks are examples of popular brewpubs, similar to what House Bill 1204 would allow for distillers. The bill allows for recognition and opportunity for an industry that is normally in the shadows. “It puts the craft distilling industry more in line with what the craft brewing industry has been in Colorado,” said Sean Smiley, owner of State-38 Distilling in Golden. Smiley sits on the board of directors for the Colorado Distillers Guild, a trade organization whose members made several recommendations on the bill. “We’ve kind of been the stepchild in terms of alcohol manufacturing,” Smiley said. “But we’re growing in numbers and I feel like the distilling wave is kind of the second wave to the craft brew wave that came through.” Kevin Settles, owner of Bardenay, a restaurant distillery in Idaho, has been credited as the facilitator behind the bill. Settles did not comment by press time, but several sources have said that Settles is looking to expand his businesses from Idaho to Colorado.

Therapy pigs b r i n g SMILES, s park MEMORIES Pumba and Boris visit people with cognitive impairments at local facilities By Christy Steadman
csteadman @coloradocommunitymedia.com Opal Vollbaum had a memory of something. She remembered she grew up on a farm in Texas. On that farm, they grew corn, and there were horses, cows and pigs. More than 100 pigs, she said. Vollbaum remembered her dad took care of the pigs, her friends didn’t want to touch the pigs, and sometimes, she and her two sisters would chase them. Other times, she and her sisters got chased by the pigs. She lives at Highline Place in Littleton, an Anthem Memory Care community for people with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. Vollbaum can’t always remember a lot of things, but two special pot-bellied pigs, Pumba and Boris, help spark Vollbaum’s memory of having fun on that farm in Texas. “Pumba and Boris like attention and they like people in particular,” pig owner Erin Brinkley-Burgardt said. “The biggest thing is they bring cheer to an atmosphere that can be a pretty dark place.” Pumba, a 10-month old male weighing about 40 pounds, and Boris, a fullgrown male at 1 ½ years old and about 55 pounds, are therapy pigs that live at Hog Haven Farm in Denver. Brinkley-Burgardt, whose grandfather had dementia when he died, volunteers her time to bring Pumba and Boris to Highline Place every Sunday. The pigs also have monthly therapy sessions at Wind Crest, a retirement community in Highlands Ranch, during the Intermissions Program, which is offered to Wind Crest residents living with some level of dementia. “The program is all about putting a smile on their faces,” said Kathy Krajecki, the intermissions coordinator at Wind Crest. “At least one smile a day.” People with a cognitive impairment need to stay engaged, she added. “The more often and longer they are alone,” Krajecki said, “the faster the disease takes over.” Plus, she said, everybody likes animals of some sort, and Pumba and Boris give
Denver Center chooses new president, CEO The Board of Trustees of the Denver Center for the Performing Arts has named Scott Shiller as its new president and chief executive officer. Daniel Ritchie, who has served as both CEO and chairman of the board of trustees since 2007, will continue as chairman. Shiller comes to the DCPA from the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in Miami, where he served as executive vice president since 2007. At the Arsht Center, he oversaw major programming and marketing initiatives, which in his first year, led to a $3.3 million turnaround with a growth in average ticket sales from 43 to 70 percent and a 76 percent increase in attendance. “The community’s appetite for and support of theater makes Denver audiences among the best in the country,” Shiller said. “I am extremely excited to be a part of, learn from and contribute to the DCPA’s next evolution as it connects artists and audiences together.” “Scott joins us at a pivotal time in the DCPA’s history,” Ritchie said. “Following an extensive analysis of our priorities, our emphasis will be on deepening and enriching relationships with our entire community. Scott’s leadership will enable me to focus on board matters and reauthorization of the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District in 2016.”
Tavern adds new concept
Pumba and Boris, therapy pigs who make their way to Alzheimer’s and dementia patients in the South Metro area, get in their wagon Feb. 25 after an hour-long visit with residents as part of the Intermissions Program at Wind Crest in Highlands Ranch. Photo by Christy Steadman the residents something to talk about. “They have a story they can share with each other at dinner.” Studies reveal pet therapy for people with cognitive impairments eases agitation, and after a therapy session, a person’s appetite increases, said Jodi Cornman, the community relations director for Highline Place. But anything that reminds them of their childhood is good, she added. There is some stigma about pigs, Brinkley-Burgardt said, but pot-bellied pigs are bred differently than farm pigs. Pot-bellied pigs make good therapy pets because they are companion animals — they’re not aggressive, they’re very social and are domesticated so they are easily trained, Brinkley-Burgardt said. Pumba and Boris, in particular, love to snuggle and will do tricks for treats, she said. Sometimes people are a bit timid to pet or feed Pumba and Boris at first, BrinkleyBurgardt said, but before the hour-long visit is over, they always end up becoming friendly with the pigs. “The visits always end up being a positive experience,” Brinkley-Burgardt said. “I plan on continuing this work as long as I can with these two. I think it’s the highlight of their week.”
In January, The Tavern Hospitality Group quietly unveiled a new concept, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, at 2907 Huron St., a stone’s throw from Coors Field. With a nod to the area’s history, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot embraces the character of the historical industrial district that was centralized around a major railroad intersection, and has black-and-white photos of Denver in the 1930s. In keeping with the essence of the former bag factory, industrial materials such as concrete, steel and wood are incorporated into the building design. In addition to a street-side patio, a rooftop patio with community tables made from repurposed wood provides an expansive view of the city. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot features more than 90 whiskeys including Pappy Van Winkle, a whiskey that has a small production and can be hard to find. Cameron Rogers, regional manager, was able to collect the full Pappy Van Winkle lineup; however, with its rarity, it will only be available for a limited time. Rogers handpicked a Knob Creek 12-year single barrel whiskey on a visit to the Jim Beam distillery in Kentucky. It will be bottled exclusively for Whiskey Tango Foxtrot and be available in the next few months. The menu features appetizers home such as pork wings, seared tuna tacos and glazed Brussels sprouts. For entrees, try the signature Foxtrot fried chicken or tender braised pot roast on a baguette. Hours are 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday; 9 a.m. to 2 a.m. Saturday and Sunday. Valet parking is available from 4 to 11 p.m. Thursday through Saturday. For more information, go to www.whiskeytf.com or call 303-226-1540.

School’s never out at School House Kitchen & Libations, a new whiskey bar and eatery at 5660 Olde Wadsworth Blvd., in the heart of historic Olde Town Arvada.

Pagliacci space redeveloped
The 33rd Avenue and Navajo Street piece of land that used to house Pagliacci’s, a longtime Denver eatery, will be redeveloped as Lumina, a 70,000-square-foot mixed-use development in the Lower Highlands neighborhood, according to a story in The Denver Business Journal. The first occupants will take up residence on March 1. Lumina, a 70,000-square-foot mixed-use development in Denver’s Lower Highlands neighborhood, will get its first occupants March 1 on a site well-known to longtime Denverites. The site used to be home to Pagliacci’s, which closed in 2012 after 66 years in business. The building was sold and torn down to make way for the Lumina project. Lumina includes 6,000 square feet of retail space and 61 apartments that range in size from 550 to 1,250 square feet, The Business Journal story said. The old Pagliacci’s sign has been converted into a garden box inside the lobby.

ThunderRidge rallies for a Sweet 16 state berth Grizzlies force five turnovers in fourth to get past Horizon By Jim Benton
jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com It appeared for over 26 minutes that ThunderRidge’s boys basketball season would end in a Class 5A playoff game against Horizon Feb. 28 in the Grizzlies’ gym. Luckily for ThunderRidge, games last for 32 minutes, and the Grizzlies turned a nine-point deficit into 46-35 victory with a 20-0 run over the final 5:27 of the of the game. ThunderRidge, top-seeded in the Chauncey Billups region, carried a 21-3 record into a March 7 Sweet 16 home game against Rampart. Horizon ended
its season with a 15-10 ledger. Horizon slowed the pace of the second-round game, made it difficult for ThunderRidge to get the ball inside to 6-foot-10 center Zach Pirog and built an 11-point lead with 3:45 to play in the third period. A basket by Tyler Moore with 6:28 left in the game pushed the Hawks to a 35-26 lead, but Horizon didn’t score the rest of the game as ThunderRidge forced turnovers and made shots to spark a winning rally. “We tried to speed the game up,” Grizzlies coach Joe Ortiz said. “They were trying to slow the game down the whole game. They were trying to isolate us and spread us out a little bit. We had a smaller lineup on them in the fourth quarter to try to match up. “We pressed and our energy picked up. And once we got the lead, everything changed. Now they had to shoot and now they were a little bit rushing.

Baseball Ranch infielder makes list: Highlands Ranch senior infielder Nick Shumpert has been named to the MaxPreps 2015 Preseason Baseball All-American Team. Shumpert, son of former Major League player Terry Shumpert, batted .410 with 20 runs and three long balls last season.

He has committed to follow his father’s footsteps and play at the University of Kentucky, but has his eyes set on the 2015 Major League Baseball Draft this summer.

confident. That’s how shooters have to be. I just let it go and made it. “We got a couple stops, hit a few shots and then the crowd was all into it and you could just tell we had the momentum. We struggled early. We were missing shots, turning the ball over and we couldn’t get stops. We just stayed in there and turned it around.” Horizon turned the ball over five times, missed five shots and had two shots blocked during its scoreless stretch. Noah Szilagyi and Brady hit 3-point shots and the Grizzlies sank all three of the field goal attempts during the last 5:27 and sank 10 of 12 free throws. “The fourth quarter got away from us,” said Horizon coach Chad Wilson. “I’m proud
of the boys. I don’t think we actually gave up the lead until two minutes left in the game. “You come into this place and lead by eight to 10 points for 30 minutes is something else. We knew they would make a run, it got loud and they got the momentum and we couldn’t keep up.” Szilagyi connected on four 3-points and led ThunderRidge in scoring with 17 points. He, Brady and Austin Mueller each had six points during the Grizzlies 20-0 flurry. Pirog and Elias Tiedgen, ThunderRidge’s leading scorers, each scored two points. “We just needed to clean it up, not one specific thing,” said Ortiz. “We had eight turnovers in the first half and there were only 20 possessions. So 40 percent of the time we turned it over in the first half so it’s kind of hard to score when there’s only 20 possessions. The kids hung in there. I’m glad to move on.” Moore finished with 13 points for the Hawks and Josh Ralphs had 10 points.
Staff report
Colorado high school basketball teams are joining forces with Feeding Colorado to collect food for the more than 750,000 Coloradans who are food insecure. The collection will be over the final week of the state playoffs, March 12-14. All four championship sites — CU Events Center, Colorado Mines, Budweiser Events Center and CSU-Pueblo — will be involved in the two-fold collection process. First, teams that qualify for the tournaments will have a competitive collection over the first three days of the week benefitting the food shelters in their local communities. The collected items will be weighed with the winning school receiving $1,000 from the Foundation for Colorado High School Student Activities to be donated in the school’s name to Feeding
Colorado. The winning school will be announced March 14 at one of the state championship games. All food raised by the school will be used to fill their communities’ pantries. Second, attendees are encouraged to bring items to be donated in collection bins at the entrances to the tournament sites. People who bring an item for collection will be given a raffle ticket for a chance to win a prize during that session of the tournament. Prize packages include items from the Broncos, Rockies, Nuggets, Avalanche, Rapids, the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame and Mile High Sports Magazine. Feeding Colorado is a collection of the state’s five largest food banks, including Food Bank of the Rockies, Care and Share Food Bank for Southern Colorado, Community Food Share, Food Bank for Larimer County and Weld Food Bank.

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Having second thoughts could be a good thing, even if you’re determined to go through with your plans. You might find it worthwhile to take a fresh look at how things have been set up. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Financial matters could continue to be a problem until you’re able to straighten out some of the more pesky situations. Once that happens, the rest should be easier to unsnarl.
& weekly horoscope
GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Family matters once again take center stage, and should be dealt with competently and quickly. And, again, insist on others taking on their fair share of the responsibilities.
