The first change-of-command ceremony in the history of the South Metro Fire Rescue Authority marked the retirement of Chief Dan Qualman and the beginning of a new era under Bob Baker. The ceremony Oct. 16 at the Lone Tree Arts Center was steeped in more than 250 years of history, both in the fire service and the military. In the fire service, assuming command of the organization means taking responsibility for the well-being, safety and protection of citizens living in the district and the members of the department. It also means a responsibility to ensure that first-responders are provided everything needed to perform their jobs to the best of their ability, and return home safely to their families. After 36 years in fire service, Qualman turned over the reins of leadership of the department to former Assistant Chief of Operations Bob Baker. Baker began his career at the Parker Fire Protection District as a firefighter in 1984 and served in several capacities since then including; engineer, lieutenant, shift commander and battalion chief. Baker has been a chief officer since 1990 and also served as Parker Fire District’s training chief from 1994 to 1997 and the administration chief from 2002 until 2004. He was instrumental in the consolidation of the Parker Fire District and South

Lone Tree seeks housing balance City mulls ways to ease law on condo construction By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Lone Tree, along with governmental agencies statewide, is searching for ways to ensure a balanced future residential population. Current state laws related to condominium construction defects mean condo projects — which tend to draw first-time homebuyers — are rare. Developers wary
of litigation and unable to afford escalating insurance premiums shy away from the product. “It’s created a gap in the housing market where you just have rentals and more or less single-family homes,” Lone Tree Mayor Jim Gunning said. “We’re eliminating the opportunity for first-home buyers and some of the younger folks. “Eliminating a market segment from your community has an impact on how a community develops. Especially on the (east) side of I-25, where we will have light rail extension, we’re really going to be hampered in letting the market create a bal-
Candidates sound off at forum Event included hopefuls for positions in Legislature By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com The 2014 Candidate Forum at the Parker Arts, Culture and Events Center on Oct. 23 provided an opportunity for a dialogue between those running for office and voters. Four candidates seeking state office took part, along with eight vying for three positions on Parker Town Council. Candidates covered a range of topics during the forum, which was co-sponsored by the Parker Chamber of Commerce and Colorado Community Media. What follows are some highlights of the legislative portion of the forum. When asked how they would help fix the partisan climate in politics: • Bette Davis, the Democratic candidate for Senate District 30, said partisanship starts as a child, and she would encourage parents to expose their children to all different ideas from the start. • Chris Holbert, the Republican running for Senate District 30, said he would work to put one party each in the majority in the State House and State Senate so both sides
would be “forced to work together.” • Kim Ransom, the Republican candidate for House District 44, said healthy disagreement is good, and while the fighting can be “ugly” at times, she would not want to “put the kibosh on personal expression.” • Ransom’s Democratic opponent, Karen Jae Smith, said she is a “middle-of-the-road candidate” who would represent the interests of those who see both sides of the issues. When asked about their opinions on hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking”: • Smith said she has mixed emotions on the issue and likes the idea of revenue and jobs for the state, but wants oversight, saying, “we have too much to lose if we don’t do it right.” • Ransom said she favors developing oil and gas resources in a responsible way, but said regulations are already in place and the state should “let people go out and make a living.” • Holbert said fracking can fund new schools and infrastructure improvements and believes landowners should have the right to develop resources on their property. • Davis said public health should take precedence and companies should be compelled to limit their water use in the process because Colorado is an arid state.

Lone Tree gets plan for bike lanes City sees way to alter Lincoln, other major streets By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Lone Tree officials have found a way to add bike lanes to the city’s busiest streets — which would resolve the longstanding concerns of cyclists who say the city now presents a geographic barrier and safety issue. Five-foot bike lanes could be added to a section of Park Meadows Drive this fall, and to Lincoln Avenue and Yosemite Street in spring 2015. “We’ve come up with the ability to get some on-street bike lanes on all three of those major thoroughfares without any major reconstruction,” public works director John Cotten told the city council during its Oct. 21 work session. “It’ll take restriping all of those.” In contrast to many major streets in the adjacent communities of Highlands Ranch and Parker, Lincoln, Yosemite and Park Meadows now have no bicycle lanes or only limited lanes. Lone Tree resident and cyclist Todd McCusker is delighted by the plans. “We’re thrilled with the response,” said McCusker, a triathlete who lives in the Carriage Club neighborhood and trains on bike-friendly south suburban streets and highways. “The only impediment I really have is getting out of my neighborhood. I make sure I don’t go bike riding after about 10 or 11 a.m. every weekend because I don’t want to mess with traffic on Lincoln or Yosemite. I’m looking forward to being able to train any time of day.” Cotten said he was offering “very preliminary results” from the grant-funded Walk and Wheel study that’s helping the city create a trails master plan. The complete plan will come back to council for approval, but council members expressed general support for the ideas Cotten presented. Bike lanes can be added on both Yo-
semite and Lincoln by reducing the vehicle lanes from 12 to 11 feet — a width that still meets federal requirements. Drivers “probably don’t even notice the difference between the 12 and 11 (feet width),” Cotten said. A later project calls for widening the sidewalks on both sides of Lincoln to create a multi-use path, separating the more serious on-street cyclists from bicycling families and walkers. The plans also include adding bike lanes in RidgeGate’s West Village, a fairly new addition to the city that was constructed without on-street bicycle lanes. “We’re trying to come up with a set of standards for the East Village so we can try and get that done the first time and not have to come back and retrofit,” Cotten said, referring to the undeveloped fouracre portion of RidgeGate east of I-25. Cotten suggests narrowing a portion of RidgeGate Parkway between the two roundabouts from four to two lanes, eliminating on-street parking on the north side and adding bike lanes. The idea is feasible for drivers because the street is designed to support up to 15,000 vehicle trips daily and now is averaging only about 6,000. Residents there also have complained about speeding, and narrowing the street likely would slow drivers. “I think this could potentially last us 10 to 15 years before we get to the kind of volumes where we have to go back” to four lanes, said Cotten. “This gives us a really nice bikeway.” Councilmember Susan Squyer said she would not be in favor of eliminating lanes, but Cotten said the street easily could be restriped if the plan proves unsuccessful. McCusker said the city appeared to consider a wide variety of users. “Basically, they seem to me to have addressed just about everything I heard anybody say,” he said. “They appear to have a really comprehensive plan that, as far as I can tell, will address that really diverse group of people who want to move around in the city. “There are several different speeds to take into consideration: Cars moving at 45

It just seems like a really smart thing for the city to do from a business point of view.”

And the recreational riders that do 15, 20, 25 mph.” Lone Tree’s potential to address access for all user groups could reap economic

RidgeGate widening may be around corner Project to add two lanes betwen Lone Tree and Parker may occur in 2019 By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com The City of Lone Tree and Douglas County are partnering to accelerate the timetable for widening RidgeGate Parkway between I-25 and Parker. But even that plan won’t bring relief to rush-hour commuters anytime soon — the proposal aims for construction in 2019. “The original plan was to have the developer do it as the area developed out that direction,” said public works director John Cotten, adding that idea included no definite timeline and had been considered being done piecemeal. “We’ve decided we need to do something sooner than that.” The city is asking the Denver Regional Council of Governments for funding to help with the three-mile, $27 million project. Douglas County already is on board, and Lone Tree hopes other entities will join the effort. “Douglas County and the City of Lone Tree, among others, have a history of partnering on important regional transportation projects,” Douglas County Board of Commissioners Chairman Roger Partridge said. “As such, we intend to engage with Lone Tree and others regarding the future funding partnership for widening RidgeGate.” The two-lane portion of RidgeGate between Lone Tree and Parker has been an issue with commuters since it opened in 2009.
Traffic backs up during the Oct. 27 morning rush hour as it does each weekday morning on westbound RidgeGate Parkway between Lone Tree and Parker. Lone Tree officials hope to widen the stretch of road to four lanes in 2019. Photo by Jane Reuter It regularly backs up during the morning and evening rush hours, a problem that’s recently been compounded by reconstruction of a portion of Lincoln Avenue in Parker. Two people have died in crashes on the stretch of RidgeGate in 2014, but Cotten said it’s unknown whether an additional two lanes of traffic would have prevented either accident. A 54-year-old Parker woman died in March after a man crossed into her lane. A 44-year-old Colorado Springs man died Oct. 18 when his car also veered into oncoming traffic. Authorities said he suffered from a heart condition and may have been dead before the cars collided. “Anytime there’s a two-lane road, the propensity for a head-on collision is probably a lot worse than if it were a four-lane,” said Lone Tree Police Sgt. Ryan Gallegos. But
he added that two serious crashes in eight months is not an alarming statistic given RidgeGate’s traffic counts. “All the construction on RidgeGate for those housing developments has pushed a lot more cars that way. It’s a bad situation, but I think it’s been made worse by the construction on Lincoln Avenue.” Lone Tree Police, whose patrol area extends to the west side of Meridian Village, are doing increased patrols in the area to try to ease traffic issues. Darryl Jones, whose company oversees construction in Lone Tree’s RidgeGate development, said much of the dirt work for the additional two lanes already is complete. “The right-of-way is all out there right now for that road to be built,” he said. “When the first portion was built, it was graded for
all four leans to be built, with the exception of a couple bridges.” The 2019 RidgeGate widening could closely coincide with the opening of the southeast light rail extension from Lincoln Avenue to RidgeGate Parkway east of I-25. The project hinges on federal funding but could break ground in 12 to 15 months, with an additional two years of construction. Approval and construction of added light rail is expected to jump start construction on the four undeveloped acres of Lone Tree located east of I-25. Lone Tree, Douglas County and other government agencies have partnered on several transit projects, including the current I-25 widening and several smaller improvements on Lincoln Avenue and near Park Meadows shopping center.

State’s two big races closer than expected Gubernatorial, Senate contests have incumbents on edge By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com There will be no need for manicure appointments this week for the four candidates involved in Colorado’s gubernatorial and U.S. Senate races — because Election Night is expected to be a real nail-biter. “This is one of the most exciting elections in Colorado history,” said Bob Loevy, a longtime state political observer and political science professor from Colorado College. “I can’t recall a governor’s race and a Senate race neck-and-neck, right at the same time.” The question for the Democratic incumbents, Gov. John Hickenlooper and Sen. Mark Udall, is whether they will be able to ride out an expected national Republican wave on Nov. 4. Loevy said the wave historically is a reliable one, and it’s one that could sweep U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner into the Senate and could help former Congressman Bob Beauprez become the next governor of Colorado. Loevy calls it the “six-year pushback,” which occurs every sixth year of a U.S. presidency. The pushback is born from a midterm election political environment that historically favors the party that does not control the White House. Loevy said the wave goes back as far as 1938, when Democrats lost seats in Congress during Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s presidency. More recently, Democrats dominated the 2006 midterm elections, which were held during George W. Bush’s sixth year as president. Bill Clinton proved to be the exception in 1998, when Democrats performed well during that year’s mid-term election cycle, a result of voter backlash against the perceived overreach of Republicans’ response to Clinton’s affair with Monica Lewinsky. The wave doesn’t just just impact fed-
eral races, Loevy said. “If you back me into a corner, I would say I think the Republicans are going to win the governorship because of the six-year pushback,” he said. If that happens, Hickenlooper supporters surely will be asking themselves how things ever got to that point. “That would be most Hickenlooper inexplicable to me,” said Eric Sondermann, an independent political analyst. “If you would have told people six months ago that when ballots are being sent to mailboxes, it would be a deadheat race, a lot of people would have taken that Gardner bet.” Odds did not favor a Republican gubernatorial win this spring. Hickenlooper’s quirky personality and his insistence on never running a negative campaign seemed to resonate with voters through the early part of his first term. The state’s economy had been gaining steam under Hickenlooper’s stewardship, and early Republican primary polls showed polarizing former Congressman Tom Tancredo leading the pack of GOP primary hopefuls. Instead it was Beauprez who won the nomination in June — the man tagged as “both ways Bob” when he was badly beaten by Bill Ritter in the 2006 gubernatorial race. Beauprez’s baggage from his previous run left Hickenlooper supporters feeling good about their chances come November. However, for months, the Beauprez campaign has hammered away at Hickenlooper’s perceived lack of leadership in several areas. At the top of that list was the governor’s decision to grant a reprieve for death-row inmate Nathan Dunlap, who killed four people at an Aurora Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant in 1993. Hickenlooper received criticism for taking a middle path rather than going forward with either an execution or clemency.
The governor also caused a media stir over the summer during a gathering of state sheriffs, where he fumbled comments on gun-control legislation that he signed into law the year before. Meanwhile, Beauprez has mostly run a mistakefree campaign. But will that be enough to take down a likable governor of a state that typically Beauprez doesn’t oust incumbents from the job? Norman Provizer, a political science professor at Metropolitan State University, said Beauprez seems to have learned from his “disastrous” 2006 bid and that part of his strategy this time is to Udall simply stay out of Hickenlooper’s way while the governor makes mistakes on the campaign trail. “It’s basically don’t do anything stupid and don’t say very much,” Provizer said. Sondermann agrees, but added that Beauprez needs to do more than that in order to be successful Nov. 4. “He’s been the person standing by the side of train tracks and seeing if the freight train derails,” Sondermann said of Beauprez’s campaign strategy. “If it does, you’re there to pick up the pieces. Is the passive strategy enough to get him to get over the finish line or does he need a closer? My instinct is he needs a closer.”
Women’s rights in spotlight Meanwhile, the Udall-Gardner matchup has been one of the most closely followed Senate races in the country. Women’s issues have dominated the campaign, with the Udall team launching an early-and-often advertising blitz against Gardner, which has attempted to paint the conservative congressman as being out of touch or too extreme on issues pertaining to women’s reproductive rights. But Udall has been criticized for having run what some perceive to be a oneissue campaign that is obsessed with capturing support of women voters.
Provizer surmises that the Udall campaign must be seeing internal polling numbers that show the attacks against Gardner are working and that “it’s always a good political move to define your opponent.” “But it became so much of it that it lost its effectiveness,” Provizer said. Also possibly working against Udall are recent crises outside of his control that could favor Republicans this fall. Whether that’s fair to Democrats is another story. Analysts agree that the rise of ISISbacked terrorism in the Middle East and questions over the government’s response to the ongoing Ebola virus threat may help Republicans on Nov. 4, because those developments happened on Obama’s watch. “Just weeks before ballots are mailed out in Colorado, those are about the two worst things to happen to Democrats, not only for what happened, but the timing,” Loevy said. “It is awfully a tough year to be carrying the Democrat banner, particularly in a federal race,” Sondermann added. “The bloom has fallen off the rose for Obama, there’s ISIS, Ebola ... there’s just very little good news for any Democrat.” But Democrats still have a major advantage going for them that gives supporters hope — the vaunted Democratic get-out-the-vote machine. Democrats have lapped Republicans in voter efforts in recent elections, and their outreach to women and Latino voters helped Michael Bennet win a close 2010 Senate contest that he had been trailing in polls leading up to Election Day. “Everyone talks about this modernday political, technological war out there,” Provizer said. “But there still remains a World War I aspect about a campaign, and that’s trench warfare on the ground.” Whatever happens on Nov. 4, political observers say they will be enjoying the show. “Stepping aside from who might win and lose, what an election,” Loevy said. “You can’t ask for anything more than that.”

“Our goal is to provide parents to make really good and informed decisions about where to send their kid,” McGraw said. “Their decisions are only as good as the data they have to make those decisions.” DCSD is introducing a School Selector tool designed to match students to learning environments. McGraw expects the DCSD website tool will be available in about a month. School board president Kevin Larsen said parent choice extends to neighborhood schools as well. “I would hope we’re shooting for 100 percent (that) are choosing the school their child is attending,” he said. “It’s more than semantics. I think it’s very important the neighborhood school, if it’s where your home is, is actively chosen and championed.” The variety of schools and changing demographics has taken a toll on some schools. Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen said two of the county’s oldest high schools have room for more students. “According to our data, there is capacity available at Ponderosa and Highlands Ranch,” she said, but added the schools have found ways to put the extra space to good use. While the vast majority of students attend neighborhood schools, charter school waiting lists that number in the thousands suggest more would attend them if space were available. Two new elementary charter schools — Global Village in Parker and World Compass in Castle Rock — plan to open in 2015, and a charter high school is winding its way through the district’s approval process.

Defining the choices Charter schools
Virtual and online schools
Charter schools are independent, tuitionfree public schools that are allowed the freedom to be more innovative, while being held strictly accountable for improving student achievement. Charter schools are governed by independent boards of directors responsible for maintaining a commitment to the mission and vision of the school, as well as financial and operational accountability to the district.
Virtual schools are Internet-based academies that teach students entirely or primarily through a rigorous online curriculum. These schools can be district-run public schools or public charter schools. In some cases, online learning is combined with traditional, inclassroom education. They hold children to the same academic standards and requirements as traditional public schools.
Home schools
Magnet schools
Home-schooling is the process of parents being the primary educators of their children in the home. Douglas County has five different options for home-based education of children, including full-time home education, dual enrollment, home education support, full-time online enrollment, and part-time online courses. Source: dcsdk12.org
Magnet schools are tuition-free public schools operated by the district that have a focused theme and aligned curriculum. These could be science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), fine and performing arts, expeditionary learning or International Baccalaureate.

Charter high school proposed B

Former Denver Christian campus is planned location

By Jane Reuter
jreut
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com A charter high school that eventually would accommodate 1,500 students is aiming for a fall 2015 opening. Backers of John Adams High School have signed a letter of intent to purchase the now-vacant Highlands Ranch campus of Denver Christian Schools, near C-470 and University Boulevard. Denver Christian Schools consolidated its three campuses to a site in Lakewood earlier in 2014. Whether or not the Highlands Ranch purchase is successful, John Adams High proponents ideally seek to open their school in 2015, but said that may not happen until 2016. John Carson, a former Douglas County School Board president and a University of Colorado Boulder regent candidate, is among the high school’s eight board members. Its vice president, Jason Sanders, founded the K-8 Ben Franklin Academy, also in Highlands Ranch. Board president and elementary charter school parent Matt Krol said Sanders first proposed the idea a few years ago. “We felt the next biggest need was a charter high school in this county,” said Krol. “Our goal is to take the education children are learning from different charter schools and have an overall rigorous curriculum that prepares them for college.” About 9,000 children attend the district’s 12 charter schools, only two of which of-

But Krol said those schools can’t accommodate students graduating from the various charter schools in the county. “Those students have gone for years in a charter school experience,” Krol said. “A lot of students and parents are going to be faced with the decision of, `Where do we go now?’” Carson, who said board members invited him to join their effort, also believes the
school would fill a gap in Douglas County. “Having a charter high school for Douglas County is a huge area of need and demand I’ve noticed over the years,” he said. “We have a lot of charter elementaries, but if folks want to continue on the charter track, they’ve really got to go out of the district.” Krol said John Adams’ emphasis would be different from that of DCSD’s traditional public high schools. The board plans to hire a high number of college-focused guidance counselors. Its goal is to ensure every student is accepted to at least one four-year college or university. “We’re going to provide that rigorous college preparatory environment,” he said. “We’re going to have more college counselors on staff. As soon as (students) walk through the door, they will meet monthly with college counselors. They’ll make sure the program they’re developing is keeping them on the right path. “We’ll have a curriculum that will lead them to advanced placement courses. Our
goal is to have at least 90 percent of students take at least three advanced placement courses before they graduate.” John Adams High will offer “all the normal high school experiences,” Krol said, including athletic programs, dances and clubs. The board has not yet decided if students will be required to wear uniforms. The 15-acre Denver Christian School site on Dad Clark Drive has football, baseball and soccer fields, and room for future expansion. Krol said the school’s name was chosen because of founding father and second U.S. president John Adams’ character and accomplishments. John Adams likely would open with 350 freshmen and 150 sophomores, expanding to 1,500 students by 2017. “We have over 1,600 intent-to-enroll (completed forms) right now,” Krol said. “Judging by that number alone, there are a lot of families that feel there’s a need for this.”

Board looks at change in charter process One member says timing raises issue By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Douglas County School Board members are debating a change to their charter school application process, but one board member said the timing of their discussion gives the appearance of favoritism. Meghann Silverthorn said her concern stems from the current proposal for John Adams High School, a charter that has signed a letter of intent to purchase the vacant Denver Christian Schools campus in Highlands Ranch. Proponents, who include former DCSD board president John Carson, would like to open the school in fall 2015. The proposed policy revision would accelerate the timeline for final board approval if the charter provides evidence of a lease or ownership in “a move-in ready facility” ade-
quate to meet its students’ needs. Proponents still would need to meet all other criteria included in the district’s application process. “There is a charter school that is pressing forward with an application,” Silverthorn said during the Oct. 21 discussion on first reading of the proposal. “The appearance with the way this is timed and the exact content of this — it gives the appearance there is favoritism toward that particular charter. I’m not suggesting that is the impetus behind this policy. I like the ideas in this policy. “I would suggest we adjust the timing of when this takes effect.” Silverthorn Other board members said the change simply represents good policy. “If they don’t have to build a school, we don’t have to require that time to build a school and drag out the time of their application for no reason,” board member Doug
Benevento said. “I think if we don’t do it, it’s irresponsible, quite frankly. My position being if it’s good for one, it’s good for all.” The school district’s chief development and innovation officer, Pat McGraw, said his staff thoroughly evaluates each application, a process that would not change with the policy revision. Silverthorn said Carson’s involvement as a John Adams board member is not what prompted her remarks. She said other charter schools that once were interested in opening in Douglas County have opted to either wait a year or pursued sites in other districts. “The other schools didn’t have this same opportunity,” she said. Silverthorn said she is not aware of any conversations in which John Adams asked for special consideration. “I’m quite sure if that happened we would know about it,” she said. “But even with that being said, it still looks suspect. “My main concern is that the charter application review committee has all the time they
need to ensure a quality application.” Matt Krol, John Adams High School’s board president, said no one from the DCSD board or administration spoke with him about the proposed policy revision. Carson supported charter schools during his years on the board, but said, “I’m not on the board anymore. I’m a parent in Douglas County.” Board president Kevin Larsen said the proposed revision is independent of any particular application, and said he was unaware Carson is on the John Adams board. “If it’s good policy, let’s take a look at it,” he said. “It’s a first reading with a lot of questions that need to be answered.” Larsen hopes the answers to those questions will eliminate any concerns. The board’s job, he said, is “to substitute facts for appearances and demonstrations for impressions.” The proposed policy revision likely will be discussed again during the board’s Nov. 18 meeting.
Humanist group files suit against school district Attorney says DCSD did not respond to earlier letters By Jane Reuter
jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com The American Humanist Association filed a lawsuit against the Douglas County School District Oct. 22, alleging the district is engaging in religious fundraising events. The lawsuit comes after two previous warnings from the humanist group that such activities violate the United States and Colorado constitutions. An AHA attorney said Douglas County parents continue to sound the alarm on religious activities within the district’s schools. “As far as we can tell from speaking to people in the community, there’s still a significant problem with religion in the school system there,” said Dave Niose, an attorney for the AHA’s Appignani Humanist Legal Center. “I think it’s safe to say it kind of permeates the culture, quite frankly.” The school district issued a response to the lawsuit by email.
“Douglas County School District supports student-driven community and fundraising efforts to aid those in need,” reads the email sent by spokeswoman Paula Hans. “We applaud our students for being leaders and giving back to others, and will vigorously defend their right to continue to do so. We are also proud of our employees who, on their own time and with donated resources, selflessly serve those who are less fortunate.” DCSD did not respond when asked if it will use in-house legal counsel or hire outside attorneys to defend it in the case. In June 2014, the AHA sent a letter to DCSD, saying Highlands Ranch High School and Cougar Run Elementary improperly supported a Christian mission trip to Guatemala. The AHA said the school district never responded to its letter. The lawsuit filing says schools including Fox Creek, Mammoth Heights and Prairie Crossing elementary schools, along with Cresthill Middle School, were proceeding with plans for a Belize mission trip throughout the summer of 2014. In November 2013, Highlands Ranch’s SkyView Academy charter school halted its par-
ticipation in a Christian proselytizing organization, Operation Christmas Child, after the AHA challenged its legality. The drive continues as a student-led effort, according to SkyView school officials. The AHA complaint states that for the past few years, at least three DCSD schools — including SkyView Academy, Chaparral High School and Flagstone Elementary — have participated in Operation Christmas Child. The lawsuit names as defendants DCSD, the board of education, Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen, Cougar Run Elementary Principal John Gutierrez, HRHS Principal Jerry Goings, SkyView Academy elementary principal Wendy Koceski, SkyView executive director Lisa Nolan and former SkyView principal Mike Munier, now principal at Platte River Academy. Plaintiffs include the AHA, four anonymous Douglas County parents and their children. The suit “challenges defendants’ policy, practice, and custom of advancing, endorsing, affiliating with, and sponsoring — both symbolically and tangibly — Christian organizations and their proselytizing and evangelical efforts.”
Niose said the AHA is seeking a court declaration that the schools’ practices are unconstitutional and an order that they cease. Niose said the district’s failure to respond to its letters is uncommon. “They never gave us any assurances these practices were stopping,” he said. “Usually, we get some kind of response, some kind of willingness to discuss the issues. “We’ve just heard of so many problems over there; it does seem litigation is necessary just to get people to even respond seriously to concerns.” Niose said the AHA’s concern is not about Christianity, and that the organization would take the same position with a governmental entity promoting Islam or Judaism. “If a school system were trying to do for Islam what it’s doing for Christianity here in Douglas County, the citizens of Douglas County would understand our position immediately,” he said. “For some reason when it’s Christianity, they seem to think there’s a Christian privilege. But there isn’t under the constitution.” The district has 30 days in which to respond to the filing.

Big things belong at front of the line Having spent most of my life in the gym in some capacity, you would think that I would have adopted the philosophy of doing the hardest things first a long time ago. But better late than never, right? You see, I was the guy in the weight room who focused all of his time on upper body exercises, hardly any leg or core workouts, and unfortunately never ever any kind of cardiovascular routines. I always would convince myself that I would do some abs and some cardio before I left the gym, but that never happened. I would either have an incredibly good workout and just be too tired for anything else, or I would just run out of time and would need to leave. The result, a guy with a big upper body, super skinny legs, and not much endurance. And then the same thing was happening in my work life. There were calls I needed to make, difficult decisions and conversations that had to take place, and instead of doing what I knew I had to do or should be doing, I would look at emails, do some busy work, maybe surf the Internet and call it research. And doing all of those things first just to avoid the hard stuff. The result: Anxiety would build throughout the day, creating a far less pro-
ductive attitude and work environment. And even as I have matured, I am still learning the value and benefits of doing the most important things first. Many years ago I heard some of my favorite motivational speakers talk about the importance of spending time reading and filling our minds with good, powerful, and positive words and information, and to make time to begin each day with some quiet reading and reflective time. I did it for a while, and then always found other things to do when I first woke up. Or I would decide it was better to sleep in a little more promising myself I would read before I went to bed that night. The result was the loss of an opportunity to grow personally and profes-
sionally and falling into the trap of having my first input of the day being provided by other sources rather than my own choices. I am excited to share with you today that I start my workouts with cardiovascular exercises first, then migrate to the weight room; I create my “to-do” lists the night before so that I begin each day with clarity and focus on the most important things that I have to do that day and tackle the most difficult ones first; and the very first thing I do in the morning is spend time reading and in prayer. I read the Bible and then I read some form of business book or motivational material. And my commitment to this routine has once again elevated my game personally and professionally. How are you doing when it comes to doing the most important things first? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail. com and when we prioritize and act upon the most important things in our lives, it really will be a better than good week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.
Finally — the sweet return of darkness Fall back. I can’t wait. From the time that clocks are changed in the fall until the time clocks are changed in the spring, I am a good-hearted, open-minded and generous curmudgeon. Or maybe I am a more good-hearted, openminded and generous curmudgeon than I am the rest of the time. You might not even notice the difference. See if my columns between those dates (Nov. 2, 2014 to March 8, 2015) aren’t just as sweet as honey on a turnip. I am always pleased to see July and August go away. I refuse to suffer, so my energy bills are high. I can’t paint and I can’t write when it’s hot. I used to live east of here. I would be a drip if I lived east of here now. I would be dripping. The worst weather ever anywhere is humid weather. Humidity is the devil in my book. St. Louis in the summer is the devil’s idea of a good time. I have been there in the summer. It was a mistake. St. Louis has one of the greatest monuments in America: Eero Saarinen’s Gateway Arch. It was designed in 1947 (so was I), and opened in 1968. It still looks like a contemporary design, and always will. It’s brilliant. Simple, elegant, eloquent and brilliant. On the other hand, St. Louis is a contraption made out of sweaty Americans, and many of
them can’t leave because they are elderly or just don’t have the funds. (I am sure that there are thousands of others who are devoted to St. Louis, so save your emails.) Do you remember the 1995 Chicago heat wave? Chicago is another one. I couldn’t live there, even though the collection in the Art Institute is unmatched in the United States. In 1995, there were about 750 heat-related deaths. Wikipedia states that most of the deaths were “elderly poor residents of the inner city, who could not afford air conditioning and did not open windows or sleep outside for fear of crime.” (There were additional deaths in St. Louis.) I am lucky, very lucky. I am retired and living on a pension. Marshall continues on Page 9
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Too much politics from school board
It is so disheartening, but certainly not surprising, to see conservative members of the Douglas County School Board going after AP History. Newsflash, this is a local school board, which by all means should be non-political, but these members are all about making everything political, and it’s scary. In the seven years we have been in Colorado, this district has taken such a nosedive and the ones getting hurt are the kids. When this board starts putting money back into the schools and helping our kids instead of fighting their fears, maybe I’ll start to have faith in them. Doubtful. Karen Rucker Highlands Ranch

Police, fire agencies train for active shooter Parker university hosts drill that took 18 months to plan By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com Police in tactical gear converged on the school with their weapons drawn. Students exited quickly, some with their arms raised, some with their clothes soaked red. The horror sounds all too familiar, but fortunately this was an active-shooter training exercise involving nearly every law enforcement and fire agency in the south metro area. The Oct. 15 drill unfolded at Rocky Vista University, an osteopathic college on Chambers Road north of E-470 in Parker, and about 150 of its students participated, both as medics and as bystanders. Organizers strive to make the scenarios as real as possible. A handful of student volunteers posed as victims and were instructed to scream out in pain, replicating the chaos of an actual shooting scene. They were carried and loaded onto gurneys with what appeared to be gaping wounds. Others panicked and insisted on getting back into the school. Since the Arapahoe High School shooting that resulted in the deaths of two students and injuries to another last December, first responders more than ever are putting all of the right pieces in place for a swift and effective reaction. In particular, police and fire agencies are coordinating to establish uniform policies and levels of command when first arriving on scene. “It’s to make sure we’re all operating by the same rules,” said Becky O’Guin, public information officer for South Metro Fire Rescue. Interagency communications are a critical element of responding to an active shooter, and those systems were tested Oct. 15. Although the drill took hours to execute and involved hundreds of personnel, it’s all in the name of improvement. Law enforcement agencies later dissect what went right and what went wrong to eliminate the potential of future tactical mistakes. The lessons learned often lead to procedural changes, said Dawn Cashman, public informa-

MAJOR RESPONSE The agencies involved in the active-shooter training exercise were: Parker Police Department, Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office, Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, South Metro Fire Rescue, U.S. Army, Colorado State Patrol, Auraria Police Department, Castle Rock Police Department, Arapahoe County Incident Management Team, Douglas County Incident Management Team, Littleton Fire Rescue, Lone Tree Police Department and Metropolitan Area Communications Center.

A few victims were outfitted with cut-suits, a wearable apparatus that simulates the feel of skin when making an incision. It also discharges a liquid that looks like blood — another element to lend some authenticity to the frenzied environment. The future doctors were quizzed on quick decision-making, and their professors let them know when they weren’t working fast enough. Dr. Cheryl Lovell, the president and CEO of Rocky Vista University, said the school was a willing participant in the

to do. Except in July and August. I get around it by writing and painting not long after midnight. I go to the grocery store not long after midnight. I don’t like to change my clocks. Some years I haven’t. I never change the one in the guest room. Why would I? I never have any guests. Who would want to stay here? My sarcasm wakes up early and stays up late.

I just wanted a full-time job. I was living in Phoenix. The devil’s other idea of a good time. I got a call from a college in Denver. Hallelujah.

Franktown teen dies after head-on crash Chaparral senior’s family wants her life ‘not to be in vain’ By Jane Reuter jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com When it became clear Taylor Llewellyn would never recover from the trauma sustained in an Oct. 22 head-on crash, her mother gave her one final directive. “When I said goodbye, I leaned down, kissed her and Actual Spectrum Residents

said, `Baby, go save lives’,” Nicolle Llewellyn said. Taylor has. Five so far, through the donation of her heart, kidneys and other major organs. The quality of another 75 to 100 individual lives will be dramatically improved by other donations. “Her beautiful blue eyes … somebody will be able to see through her corneas,” her mother said. “She’s the light of our lives and we will miss her terribly. But we want her life not to be in vain.” The Chaparral High School senior, and member of the varsity pom-pon team, was taken off life support at Littleton Adventist Hospital Oct. 23, a day after the Nissan Rogue Llewellyn was driving crossed State Highway 83 north of Franktown at 12:07 p.m. and struck a 2011 Toyota Sienna van near Bayou Gulch Road. Llewellyn’s school day was done, and she was heading home to Franktown after having lunch with friends at Chick-Fil-A. Her parents believe she fell asleep. Alcohol or drugs are not suspected, and phone records show Taylor was not texting or talking at the time of the crash. Eyewitnesses said the car drifted across the lane. “I know that sounds unusual, but … she was a dancer at Miller Dance (Studio). She did poms. She worked a parttime job at Adriana’s Mexican Restaurant,” Nicolle said. “As any teenager, they burn the candle on all ends.” The man in the van, 60-year-old Henry Cornelius of Elizabeth, suffered serious injuries and was hospitalized at Littleton Adventist. The Llewellyn family hopes they can speak with him someday soon. Both Taylor and Cornelius were wearing seat belts. Nicolle said Taylor was looking toward a future as a dental hygienist and debating what college she would attend. She had rejected earlier plans to become a veterinary technician because she didn’t have the heart to put a pet to sleep. Taylor liked school, hated math, and lived for dancing and poms. She attended Crossroads Community Church in Parker with her family. She was witty, laughed easily and had just started dating. “She was excited for that chapter of her life,” her mother said. She also was an organ donor, a decision made after a cousin died in a car crash years ago. When Taylor got her first driver’s license, the heart on the front indicated she had checked “yes” for organ donation. “The surgeon told us she would never leave the hospital, and we immediately knew that’s what she would want,” Nicolle said. “Her heart is in Arizona. Her lungs are still here in Colorado. But the amazing story is her kidneys.” Taylor’s rare combination of blood type and antibodies made her kidneys a match for two people who had been
Taylor Llewellyn, a 17-year-old Chaparral High School senior and pom-pon girl died Oct. 23 after a head-on collision while driving north of Franktown. Courtesy photo told their prospects for new organs were almost non-existent. The Llewellyns hope someday to meet those two people and others who’ve received Taylor’s organs. “She’s dancing in heaven with Jesus — complete and whole and unbroken — and we know that,” Nicolle said. “Faith is huge when you go through something like this. We will miss her terribly, and we know our darkest days are ahead. But God never makes mistakes. We feel blessed we had her for the 17 years we did.” Llewellyn is survived by her parents Steve and Nicolle Llewellyn, and older brothers Skyler Chase and Clayton, both Chaparral graduates. The family is gathering money to install a bench at Chaparral in memory of Taylor and other teens who have died. Services are set for 10 a.m. Oct. 30 at Crossroads Community Church, 9900 Twenty Mile Road, in Parker.

Staff report
Nuclear Families, Nuclear Towns: Los Alamos in the Cold War Saturday, November 1, 1 - 4 pm Lee Chambers
CU-Boulder Professor of History CU South Denver, Classroom 204 10035 S. Peoria St., Parker, CO
The Cold War atmosphere of fear of Communism and mission urgency projected beyond the secret weapons laboratories and into family and community life in the “Atomic City.”
Cheryl Matthews has been a champion for Douglas County’s open space for more than 20 years, and her efforts will be honored at the Douglas Land Conservancy’s annual Fall Celebration Nov. 6 when she is presented with the 2014 Oak Leaf Award. “Cheryl has been a great partner in DLC’s effort to preserve and protect open space in the county,” said Patti Hostetler, executive director for the DLC. “Without her efforts, DLC’s success and the success (of ) the county’s open space program would have been much more difficult.” The county’s open space program has Matthews protected 49,272 acres since its inception in 1995. Open space staff manages and maintains 13,526 acres of open space and monitors conservation easements on 32,181 acres. Douglas County hired Matthews as a temporary employee in the Planning Department in May 1992, and shortly after, she became a permanent full-time employ-
ee in planning. She was promoted in 2001 to Director of Open Space and Natural Resources. Some of her most noticeable accomplishments include working on preservation projects such as a conservation easement on the historic Cherokee Ranch, to protect 3,100 acres from being developed in 1996, and serving as a liaison between planning, the Division of Parks and Trails and the Division of Open Space and Natural Resources after voters approved a dedicated sales and use tax in 1994 for open space. However, Matthews said she is most proud of having constructed 10 trailheads and nearly 77 miles of softsurface trails that, in 2013, were enjoyed by 319,000 pedestrians, mountain bikers and equestrians. The public is invited to attend the Nov. 6 celebration, which will be from 5-8 p.m. Nov. 6 at the Highlands Ranch Mansion, 9950 E. Gateway Drive. The event will include the Oak Leaf Award presentation, live music, food, a cash bar and live and silent auctions. Admission is $55. To purchase tickets, or for more information, visit www.douglaslandconservancy.org/ upcoming-events or call 303-688-8025.

Passenger describes Ebola ‘scare’ on ship Parker resident says trip was still fun By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com Viewers of major cable news channels might have thought there was panic aboard a Mexico-bound cruise ship that was forced to turn back when it was announced that a passenger had handled a specimen from an Ebola patient. That wasn’t the case, says Parker resident Dana Garies, who was aboard the Carnival Magic cruise liner that made headlines in October. A Dallas health care worker who handled specimens from Thomas Eric Duncan, a patient who later died from Ebola, was aboard the ship, and because the Centers for Disease Control changed its response protocols in the middle of the weeklong excursion, the worker selfquarantined and the vacation was cut short. “When the health care worker boarded the ship (Oct. 12), she was not in a risk category that required restriction of movement based on CDC guidelines,” Carnival said in a
Clinica Colorado WON $1,000 YOU COULD TOO!
statement. The ship had already made stops in Honduras and Belize and was getting ready to head to Cozumel, the popular resort island in Mexico, when the captain calmly informed passengers of the situation Oct. 17. Garies, along with her husband and 17-year-old son, noticed that the ship had not departed from Belize at the scheduled time, but “no one really seemed to know why,” she said. The Belizean government refused to let the health worker fly out from its airport, and Mexican authorities did not allow the ship to dock in Cozumel, so the passengers were shuttled back to Galveston, Texas, where the cruise originated. When she turned on the TV, Garies saw headlines that made the situation seem much more dire than it actually was. Commentators speculated about the potential spread of Ebola to other passengers and the possibility that the entire ship would be quarantined. “It was pretty funny,” she said. “I was getting texts from my family.” In reality, the health worker was in touch with the CDC before she left and had permission, with restrictions, to take the cruise. She had not exhibited symptoms in the 19 days since handling the specimen, but decided to quarantine herself and a travel companion as a precaution. Although some passengers were initially concerned, Garies says they were kept well informed via regular up-
dates from the captain. “At no time on this ship did I feel that we were in any kind of danger,” she said, while adding the CDC “maybe should have been a little more careful” with its travel restrictions on health workers who treated Ebola patients or work in labs that test samples. A helicopter met the cruise ship and retrieved a sample from the worker. The negative test results were announced before the ship made it back to shore. The travelers had full access to the ship and Carnival went out of its way to make sure everyone was accommodated during the unscheduled day at sea. The passengers actually came out ahead in the end. Carnival offered $200 worth of on-board credit and half off the price of their next cruise. “We had a great time the whole time,” said Garies, who nonetheless came back with an unwanted illness in the form of a stubborn cold. Carnival, like other cruise lines, is requiring medical screening questionnaires of all guests prior to boarding a ship. The questionnaire covers areas like travel history, contact with individuals who have traveled from the West African countries of concern, as well a question added earlier this month about contact with those who have been diagnosed with Ebola. ‘Yes’ answers to any of the questions triggers a secondary screening that could result in denied boarding, Carnival Cruise Lines said.
“ ...to provide quality, low-cost healthcare for those who are indigent, without health insurance or unable to obtain primary care services.”

Parkway complex is next door to the forrent Miramont apartments. Miramont’s newer sister complex, The Vue, at Lincoln and Park Meadows Drive, also offers for-rent apartments. Two rental complexes also are under construction at Lincoln Station. The scarcity of for-sale units is the result of a 2005 law that builders say created a litigious environment, making it easy for homeowners to sue over property defects. State-level efforts to ease the law haven’t yet been successful. Lakewood adopted an ordinance Oct. 14 aimed at easing the law’s impacts. Lone Tree discussed a similar proposal that would give the developer time to fix a problem with a condo’s construction before homeowners file suit, and get consent from a majority of homeowners to file any action.
October 30, 2014 City staff said it aims to balance both the developer’s and the property owners’ rights. Though the board took no action on the idea, council member Harold Anderson said he likes it. “This does level the playing field,” he said. “It needs to be fair for the owners and fair to the developer.” Anderson’s only concern is that a developer could deliberately retain ownership in enough units to retain more than 50 percent of the vote and stymie any potential action. Council plans to discuss another option currently used by Douglas County during a future work session, and then may move forward with an ordinance. Douglas County’s plat restriction requires certain types of property claims to be submitted to binding arbitration, with the goal of settling disputes more quickly and affordably than is possible with a judicial process.

An unreal look at reality TV
Difficult script proves engaging in Aurora production By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com “Good Television,” produced by Ashton and Abster Productions, offers a welldirected (by John Ashton), behind-thescenes look at reality TV, as written by actor/first-time playwright Rod McLachlan. It’s a new play, premiered by the Atlantic Theatre Company in Boston, and is loosely based on experiences of the playwright’s wife as a cable show director. As lights go up, we see a strung-out Clemson McAddy (strongly portrayed by Ben Cowhick) in a spotlight, shakily rambling on about his troubles as a lonely kid — “couldn’t find my daddy … my sister busy with Jeremy … lost my job … never graduated … can’t help my mom … meth has me f…. up…” Tears, fade…
Next scene is at a television studio, producing a reality TV show called “Rehabilitation,” based on shooting a “documentary” about an addict who might benefit from a stay in rehab. Will this family situation make good television? A cynical discussion ensues. The audience meets Clemson’s desperate sister, Brittany (Christine Sharpe), who has sent a tape of her brother’s behavior, with the hope that he might find some help from a show that offers to pay for rehabilitation after an intervention with family is recorded. The playwright’s look at the reality TV crew is interesting and sympathetic, although their morals are questionable. Show runner Bernice (Abby Apple Boes, with martini in hand and poised to move to another show), is hard-edged and pressed for more material, due to the show’s popularity. Director Connie (Lauren Bahlman), conflicted with high qualifications, past secrets and a wish to do good, takes a crew to shoot a North Carolina trailer trash family, which will hopefully make for “Good

Television.” Enter a new show runner, Ethan (Sam Gilstrap) who changes the balance of the crew Scene: the McAddy family trailer, with a sick mama offstage, a suddenly interested older brother (Jack Wefso) with dollar signs in his eyes, a seriously overburdened sister Brittany — and eventually a father who has found Jesus. Ashton has carefully choreographed a chaotic family interaction, with Ethan and intern Tara (Miriam Tobin) shooting from the sidelines. Is there hope for any of these people? One leaves the theater with a head filled with unanswered questions, which certainly speaks well of a difficult, but engaging script.
Group weaves a lot to be desired Fiber Arts Sale returns to Englewood Civic Center By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com For a number of years, multi-talented members of the Rocky Mountain Weavers’ Guild have held a fall Fiber Arts Sale in the Community Room at Englewood’s Civic Center. The dates for this year are a bit later than usual: November 13 to 15 — perfect timing for holiday shopping. A weaver or spinner will probably be demonstrating her craft near the door as one enters the large room filled with color: weaving, painted silk scarves, art to wear, baskets, home decor, quilting, felting, jewelry, toys and other original items created by Front Range artists. The featured fiber artist for 2014, Colette Smith, will have two remarkable knitted sculptural pieces exhibited in advance: One is her latest — Forest Dragon Taliesen, who will visit the Englewood Public Library, through Nov. 15, accompanied by mice, a snake, an ant and a snowy white angora owl — all knitted by an astonishing craftsman. The other is GaeWyn, a Water Dragon, surrounded by sea creatures, birds and fish. (One of the two will leave the library briefly to travel to New York, but will return.)

The Taylor Estate, the highest-priced home in the Denver metro area, is up for sale for $27.7 million in Lakewood. The 1932-built gated spread on the shores of Ward Lake was designed by renowned Denver architect Burnham F. Hoyt, who also designed Red Rocks Amphitheatre as well as landmarks such as the Denver Central Public Library and Colorado Capitol Annex Building. According to Internet reports, Hoyt once regarded this residence as the most beautiful home in America. This 14-000-square-foot 26-room manor house features a paneled library, banquet-size dining room, dual master suites with nine additional bedroom suites, 12 fireplaces and a staff wing. The 122 acres include mountain views, century-old trees, a lake with a beach and boating privileges, a pool, tennis court, three staff cottages, stables, water rights and agricultural status. Guests at this storied estate have included Denver high society, British royalty and assorted dignitaries. Prince Philip and Princess Anne of Great Britain chose to stay there as guests of the Taylors. This property also includes a heated pool, tennis court, outdoor patios, a flower-cutting garden, dressage ring and stables.

2015 Restaurant Week set The oh-so-popular Denver Restaurant Week (DRW), presented by Lexus and organized by Visit Denver, will revert to a single 10-day event in 2015, running from Feb. 20 to March 1. “We talked to restaurant owners, restaurant employees, diners, sponsors and restaurant week fans, and the consensus was that seven days of DRW was too short, but 14 consecutive days was too long,” said Justin Bresler, vice president of marketing for Visit Denver. “The perfect `best of both worlds’ compromise appears to be to run it for 10 days, encompassing two complete weekends in the traditional slow period of February.” For Denver Restaurant Week’s 10th anniversary this year, at the request of participating restaurants, DRW was split into two separate weeklong events, one in February and one in late August. “While summer restaurant week was popular with both restaurants and diners, the challenge going forward was to find a week that wasn’t already occupied by an existing event, holiday or a week that didn’t have a major convention,” Bresler said. Late summer and fall are Denver’s busiest convention months. “We really don’t want to bring 10,000 convention delegates to Denver and have them find that every restaurant is booked with DRW reservations,” Bresler said, adding that the restaurants also don’t want to be offering special DRW pricing at a time when there are thousands of hungry convention delegates in town. “In the end, we couldn’t find workable dates for the summer event, and the consensus of opinion was to concentrate on the traditional February time frame,” Bresler said. More than 300 restaurants participated in the 2014 winter DRW and more than 200 in the summer DRW, making this one of the largest culinary celebrations in the nation. Bresler stated that registration for restaurants for the 2015 DRW will begin Nov. 10 at www.denverrestaurantweek.com. Participating restaurants again will offer a multi-course dinner for the fixed price of $30 per person. The list of participating restaurants and menus will be announced in mid-January.

Venue offers ways to get a clue Visitors play escape game at Centennial business By Christy Steadman
csteadman @coloradocommunitymedia.com Internet-based escape games have been popular online for more than a decade, but people who visit the Clue Room, a new entertainment business in Centennial, enjoy the experience live. “People really love role-playing,” said Todd Mata, who owns the Clue Room with his wife Elisa. “This challenges your brain, and you have a good time doing it. It’s about getting into a role and solving problems.” To play the game, a team of two to eight people deciphers clues by solving puzzles, riddles and codes. The goal is to collect a key and escape the room within 60 minutes. People playing the game are encouraged to “tear the room apart,” so they can thoroughly inspect all props that may lead to a clue. “It’s not like going to someone’s house,” Todd Mata said. “You can move things, open things and take things down.” Part of the idea is to create a team-building activity, Elisa Mata added. “It’s something that families, co-workers and friends can do together,” she said. “It’s something where you can interact with each other.” At the Clue Room, 7600 E. Arapahoe Road, Suite 211, two missions are offered. Each has its own original backstory, conceptualized by Todd Mata, along with tasks to accomplish. Inspiration for the Clue Room’s backstories and tasks come from movies, TV shows, books and role-playing games. “Anything with a mystery concept to it,” Todd Mata said. The two escape games will be changed every six months, and eventually, higher degrees of challenge will be offered. The games offered at the Clue Room are not scary, Elisa Mata said, and there are no live actors that people interact with because the Matas believe it would take away from the critical thinking aspect. “Things are not as they appear in the Clue Room,” Elisa Mata said. “(But) it’s not like a haunted house. It’s an activity to use your wits.”
The Matas Family, from left, Veronica, 19, Conrad, 14, Elisa and Todd (co-owners) opened the Clue Room in Centennial the first week of September. The Clue Room is Denver’s first live escape game, despite the concept’s growth in popularity in other major U.S. cities and countries around the world. Courtesy photo The Matas had their first experience with a live escape game in Spain when the family traveled to Europe last summer during one of Todd Mata’s business trips. Their two teenage children were with them, so they wanted to find an activity the entire family would enjoy, they said, and TripAdvisor kept suggesting live escape games. “It was the coolest thing we’d ever done,” Todd Mata said, adding that the teens and adults had fun working together as team members. Once the Mata family returned home, they discovered that live escape games are gaining popularity internationally and in most major U.S. cities, but there was not one in the Denver area. “It’s still a pretty new form of entertainment,” Todd Mata said. The Clue Room opened the first week of September. For more information, visit www. theclueroom.com. “Any team with a bit of creativity, good ideas and logical thinking can escape the Clue Room,” Todd Mata said. “Be sure to always think outside of the box.”
At the Clue Room, participants, in teams of two to six people, are assigned a mission. They are encouraged to think outside of the box in order to decipher clues and solve puzzles to retrieve a key and escape a room within 60 minutes. Photo by Christy Steadman

A-MAZING FUN
Groups of people spent the day Oct. 25 wandering the Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield’s corn maze, which takes place on a working farm. This year, the 8-acre maze is in the design of a butterfly. Through the months of September and October, people got lost at the Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield’s Corn Maze. Along with an 8-acre butterfly maze, other corn mazes included a mini maze for children 10 years and younger, and the Glow Maze, an afterdark maze illuminated by glow sticks which patrons must follow to get to the Dead Zone, a 3-acre haunted maze. The event, which takes place on a working farm, also offered guests a variety of food vendors, entertainment such as bounce houses, a pumpkin patch and tractor-pull, pony and hayrides.

Women throw cabers, caution to the wind
By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com Karen Hart watched in awe as, one by one, the women launched telephone poles end over end. Regardless of how the toss landed, each thrower was showered with hugs and cheers from her competitors. “It was like a sorority,” Hart said. “It looked like so much fun.” At the center of one celebratory scrum was Edie Lindeburg, who despite having only three years of competition under her belt has become a standout in the world of Scottish athletics. Lindeburg and the others were actually tossing cabers as part of a multi-discipline Highland games contest in August. Hart musThe events in a Scottish tered the courage athletic competitions, AKA to talk to LindeHighland games, are: caber burg, who was toss, heavy hammer throw, having a good light hammer throw, stone showing at the throw, sheaf toss, weight Warrior Classic throw for distance, weight games in Lovethrow for height and Braeland. mar stone throw. Two months later, Hart, 51, is taking up a new hobby, one she “never in a million years” envisioned getting involved in. And she has the ideal mentor.
RUNDOWN OF EVENTS
‘Throwing cabers is just cool’
Lindeburg, a 48-year-old resident of Parker, had been looking for a new challenge, too, when she came across an amateur Scottish athletics competition in Estes Park, which claims the largest Scottish festival in Colorado. After 12 years of triathlons, she was mentally and physically burned out. Having no idea that amateurs could compete in caber toss and other sports, she conducted some research, and she and her husband, Nathan, became members of the Rocky Mountain Scottish Athletics Association in 2011. “We’ve always gone toward (sports) that interested us rather than what was
Parker resident Edie Lindeberg, second from right, lifts a caber with the help of competitors and friends. In just three years, Lindeberg has climbed to the top ranks of her age bracket in the Scottish games, which includes the caber toss. Photo by Karen Hart popular,” said Lindeburg, who competed in track and field in high school. “We got to a point in our athletic careers where we were ready for a change.” The Lindeburgs learned about technique and scoring, and now push each other in training. They can occasionally be found practicing the stone and hammer throws at Legend High School, or tossing a caber at a park in Canterberry Crossing, where they’ve lived for the last 15 years. Nathan Lindeburg, a 54-year-old naval reservist, said he has enjoyed acquiring new, decathlon-like athletic skills. “And throwing cabers is just cool,” he says. This was the first year the Lindeburgs traveled for competitions and “now we’re kind of hooked on it,” Edie Lindeburg says. It’s easy to see why. Over the last two years, she has regularly earned a top-two position in the majority of contests she’s entered. During the Masters World Championships in Inverness, Scotland, last month, she placed fourth overall (and first in the caber toss) in the women’s 45-49 age category. “My goal in Scotland was to see what
I could do at that level,” said Lindeburg, whose slight build belies her Herculean strength. “I was very pleased. Surprised, to be honest.” Aside from succeeding in a pastime she truly enjoys, Lindeburg has a goal of growing the sport for women. That’s where Hart comes in.
‘Word is getting out’
Hart, of Centennial, pulls into the parking lot of the gym, her car stereo blaring bagpipe music to get into the proper mindset. She had already started to immerse herself in Scottish culture over the summer, joining various societies and volunteering for the Rocky Mountain Scottish Athletics Association in preparation for a trip to Scotland to study her husband’s genealogy. That trip happened to coincide with the Masters World Championships, and Hart watched her kilted mentor keep step with women who have been competing at a high level for years. “Word is getting out,” Hart says. “People are starting to hear about her.” Hart has been thoroughly inspired by Edie Lindeburg. Though she has never
embarked on such an audacious journey, Hart now has her sights set on her first competition at the Pikes Peak Celtic Festival next June. After getting workout pointers from Lindeburg, Hart hired a personal trainer, studied the correct throwing posture, changed her diet, and is “laying the foundation” to get involved. She admits she doesn’t expect to accomplish anything more than bookending events with her mentor, “placing last to her first,” said Hart, who has never considered herself an athlete. “I’ve got to give this a try and participate as an athlete to experience it, then I’ll probably try to get involved in the organizing side and maybe judging,” Hart said. It doesn’t matter how she finishes, just that she proves to herself that she’s capable of trying out a fringe sport and serving as a role model for her nieces. There is also the sorority-like camaraderie, which is among Hart’s biggest motivations. “I may drop the caber on my toe, but at least I’ll have a supportive group to help me off the field,” she said with a laugh.

Butler serves up state title in Class 3A SkyView junior wins cross country race by 22 seconds By Jim Benton
jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Ben Butler implemented his plan to perfection. Butler, a junior at SkyView Academy, won the individual Class 3A cross country championship Oct. 25 at the state meet held at the Norris-Penrose Event Center in Colorado Springs. “I didn’t know how I would do exactly but I knew that if I put myself in a good position early on that good things could happen,” said Butler. He was timed in 16 minutes, 18.2 seconds to earn a 22-second victory over second place Taylor Stack of Salida. “At the beginning of the race, I thought it was important that I did what I’ve been trying to do all year,” explained Butler. “I’m a better front runner than a kicker at the end of a race. So I tried to get out to an early lead and build on that lead early so that when
I got to the hill I would have a little bit of a cushion. “It worked out pretty well. I thought the way the race played out was pretty good for me. I was able to get into a good spot by the mile mark and as the race went on my main focus shifted to holding onto the lead and running real well on the downhill coming off the big hill. The race plan was pretty good.” SkyView Academy coach Randy Scherer was confident with Butler’s race strategy. “He’s one of the hardest working kids,” said Scherer. It’s kind of been his focus since last year to try to win the state championship this year. The plan was to go out and run his own race and not worry too much about how the people around him were doing. He had a little bit of a gap at the mile and when he got to the top of the big hill he had opened a pretty good lead. It kept getting wider.” Butler ran a 16:52 in the 2013 Class 2A state meet and was determined to improve this season. “Winning the state championship was one of my main goals,” he said. “Our coach did a great job of preparing the whole team for this moment. We put in a great effort. He knew that we needed to be fresh so he held

some of the varsity guys out of some races. “When I crossed the finished line, I honestly couldn’t believe it. I never thought it would be me who could win the state championship but it has started to sink in. I just have to give credit to God. I was very happy with the time. I had a very disappointing
race last year. I was able to execute my plan very well. I ran much quicker this year, more than 30 seconds faster than last year.” Butler’s win helped the team to a fifthplace overall finish, while Cassie Unruh’s 10th place in the girls race helped lead the Hawks’ girls squad to a ninth-place finish.
Mountain Vista claims cross country crown Golden Eagles make it three straight state titles By Jim Benton
jbenton @coloradocommunitymedia.com Three-peat has become a popular term used when a team wins three consecutive championships. Mountain Vista accomplished that feat Oct. 25 at the Norris-Penrose Events Center in Colorado Springs when the Golden Eagles boys won their third straight Class 5A cross country title. “It was pretty exciting,” said Vista coach Jonathan Dalby. “It was unexpected. We knew we had a chance but the kids ended up running better than they had all season when it mattered the most. It was really fun to watch. “We knew Fort Collins was really, really good and Fairview, Boulder and Monarch were going to be up there potentially. Our boys from the time the gun went off to the finish led it wire to wire. They ran really smart and got the job done.” Senior Tyler Matzke was the first Vista
runner to cross the finish line in 14th place and Paxton Smith was right on his heels in 15th. Addison Hellier was next in 25th, Alex Fu was 26th and Josh Romine, 34th. The Golden Eagles finished with 114 points while second-place Fort Collins had 156 points. “We lost or No.3 runner Ryan Currie early in the season with an injury,” Dalby said. “But he’s been there every step of the way with the kids as far as supporting them and he was at practice every day. They really rallied around him. I felt they were out there running for him.” Cherry Creek was fifth in the 5A boys competition and ThunderRidge finished just out of the top 10 with an 11th-place showing. Creek’s girls, led by a sixth-place individual finish by sophomore Devon Peterson, was fourth in the standings while Mountain Vista was ninth as freshman Allie Chipman came home in 12th place. “The girls ran really well,” said Dalby. “We had few spots where we could have improved a little bit but girls cross country is so competitive. They moved up five spots from last year. We were hoping to be a little bit closer to fifth this year.”
Mountain Vista’s Tyler Matzke heads for a sixth-place finish at the Aug. 29 Warrior Invitational Cross Country Meet. Matzke was the first Golden Eagle to cross the finish at the Class 5A state meet Oct. 25 in Colorado Springs, helping lead his team to its third straight state championship. File photo

Mountain Vista coach Theresa Echtermeyer encouraged the Golden Eagles a couple times early in the match to play like they wanted to win. Using the spark provided by Nolan Gao’s first-half goal, the host Golden Eagles followed the order of their coach and notched a 4-0 first-round victory over Brighton in the Class 5A boys soccer playoffs on Oct. 23. “That goal definitely gave us a little room to breathe,” said Echtermeyer. “We were nervous at the beginning but we did better in the second half. I was pleased with the way we put away our chances at the end.” Nolan Patsy scored two goals in the second half and Brent Lackey one as fifth-seeded Vista improved to 113-2 and advanced to the second round. Vista was scheduled to play No. 12 seed Broomfield on Oct. 29 at Shea Stadium. Brighton, the No. 28 seed, ended the campaign with an 8-8-0 record. “We tried to play very composed,” said Patsy. “We didn’t stop even though in the first half they came at us pretty hard. That first goal was very important. Nolan Gao definitely sparked the team for a frenzy of goals.” Gao controlled a long pass and raced past a Bulldog defender on the right side and launched a shot from a difficult angle to the far post. “It was a very difficult goal to defend,” said Brighton coach Kevin Barnes. “Coming from outside like that across the keeper. Good players are taught that’s where you shoot to the far post.” After Lackey managed to score during a scramble in front of the net early in the second half, Patsy scored the final two Vista goals. He scored the third goal while sliding across the turf, and then put a shot with his left foot into the goal to conclude the scoring as Echtermeyer started inserting reserves into the game. “It was a good pass by Louis Sawaged and I just got a toe on it and put it in,” Patsy said of his first goal. “I put my foot perfect on the ball on the second goal and just tried to hit it as hard as I could.” Barnes praised the Vista program after the loss. “I’ve known Theresa a long time,” he said. “I took some coaching from her for my certification way back in the day. Great coach and congratulations to Mountain Vista.”
Other games Also in Class 5A first-round action, top-seeded Rock Canyon whipped No. 32 Grand Junction, 4-1. Oliver Larsson, Gabe Krzywdzinski, Will Steffe and Brian Olcott scored for the Jaguars, who played Arvada West in a second-round game Oct. 29 at Shea Stadium. No. 10 Legend edged No. 23 Columbine, 2-1, in overtime with Brian Waite and Dana Smith scoring for the Titans. Legend played No. 7 and defending state champion Pine Creek Oct. 29 at District 20 Stadium in Colorado Springs. Cherry Creek, seeded 13th, shut out No. 20 Fossil Ridge and moved on to a second-round game Oct. 29 against Doherty at Gerry Berry Stadium in Colorado Springs. No. 14 Heritage lost 1-0 to No. 19 Poudre and No. 8 Fairview toppled No. 25 ThunderRidge 4-1.

Football playoff matchups

Thanksgiving donations needed for outreach Inter-Faith seeks items to fill 650 food boxes By Tom Munds
tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Inter-Faith Community Services makes a habit of counting on community support for its Thanksgiving outreach, and this year is no exception. “We will need help to provide all the items that will go into the Thanksgiving food boxes,” said IFCS director Sandra BlythPerry. “We are fortunate because we have been receiving donations and there are many organizations collecting food for us.” Boxes will be distributed to 550 needy families and 100 seniors, Blyth-Perry said. Volunteers will pack boxes with all the ingredients needed to cook a traditional Thanksgiving meal and add ingredients for meals for three or four additional days. Inter-Faith Community Services has been providing assistance to needy families and individuals since 1964. Services include a food bank and clothing bank, as well as putting on special programs like the Thanksgiving food drive and provid-
ing new outfits and school supplies to the children of needy families. The organization reaches out to those in Englewood, Littleton, Highlands Ranch, Lone Tree and Sheridan. A number of organizations are helping with the Thanksgiving effort by collecting box ingredients or holding food drives, Blyth-Perry said. The organizations working to help Inter-Faith include Centennial Rotary, Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Littleton, the Englewood Lions and the Highlands Ranch Rotary Club. The deadline for delivering donations to Inter-Faith is Nov. 7, and plans call for volunteers to assemble the boxes on Nov. 19 so they can be distributed Nov. 22. Requested donations include items such as stuffing mix, cans of green beans, turkey gravy mix and canned pumpkin. Each box contains a supermarket gift certificate so the individual or family can buy the meat item for the meal. For information on the list of needed items or how to donate to the project, call 303-789-0501. “I would guess more than half the 650 boxes we plan to distribute will go to people who have recently lost their jobs,” said Blyth-Perry, who has directed the program for 17 years. “We are glad we will be there for those people because Inter-Faith has always tried to be a safety net to help folks in that situation through a rough time.”
Volunteers load boxes of food into a car during the 2012 Inter-faith Thanksgiving Food Box distribution. Inter-Faith seeks donations in order to distribute 550 boxes to needy families and 100 boxes to seniors. For infornation call Inter-Faith at 303-789-0501. File photo

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) Caution dominates the Sheep’s monetary aspect this week. Rams and Ewes might want to shear their big spending plans until a more favorable financial picture begins to emerge by week’s end. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Thrift counts both at home and at work. So you might want to rethink major purchases or investments. Also, be wary of a so-called revelation about a previous decision.
& weekly horoscope
GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Both household budgets and workplace accounts might benefit from some judicious trimming of unnecessary expenses. A partnership could lead to an unexpected challenge.

LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) This could be the start of a new career-changing phase, so start marking down your many accomplishments for those who need to know how much you have to offer. Good luck. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22) It’s not too early for the sometimes procrastinating Virgo to start making those long-distance travel plans. The sooner you decide where to go, when to go and how to go, the better. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) Financial matters once again figure in any major action you might take regarding career, travel or other endeavors. You’ll want a ready reserve to help you back up those moves. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Trying to resolve a problem in a personal relationship could be more difficult than you’d expected. Look into the possibility that someone might be interfering for his or her own reasons.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21) A project you once rejected might be more attractive because of changes that you feel you can now work with. The weekend is especially favorable to family matters. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) This is a good week for the gregarious Goat to enjoy being with people you care for. You might even want to show off those creative kitchen skills you’re so adept at. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) A colleague might think your attitude is patronizing or even outright insulting. True. That might be his or her problem. But you might want to take some reassuring steps anyway. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) It’s a good time to jettison those old concepts about a family matter you might have been holding on to. This will help make room for a new and more enlightened way of dealing with it.
