District’s ranking moves up Board president proud, but community member says academic progress remains flat By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Douglas County School District made a successful bid to elevate its state performance rating. For the first time since the 2009-10 academic year, DCSD ranks as “Accredited with Distinction” — the highest of the Colorado Department of Education’s five tiers. DCSD was among several districts that requested the state reconsider its ranking. By excluding the performance of the district’s highest-risk students and factoring in improved ACT scores and graduation rates, the CDE agreed Douglas County merited its top rating. District leaders are delighted. Those critical of its education reforms say the ranking is misleading. “Certainly to move up into that top echelon speaks wonderful volumes about our teachers, our district and our students,” school board president Kevin Larsen said. “I and the rest of the board have been confident all along this time would come, and here we are. It means we’re doing good things for kids. So let’s celebrate it, but keep pushing all of our schools to help our kids learn at an even higher level.” Strong Schools Coalition president Laura Mutton noted that while the district’s ACT composite score increased slightly from 2013 to 2014 — from 21.8 to 22.1 — scores on the last Transitional Colorado Assessment Program were flat. “I think it would be unfortunate if the DCSD continues on Page 14

Sumo-sized science

Assembly meant to engage middle school students By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com What does it take to get middle school students interested in physics? Staging a clash between teachers in sumo suits is a good start. Cimarron Middle School in Parker got a visit from “FMA Live!” during its “Forces in Motion” tour, a series of performances meant to inspire teens to pursue a career in science, technology and math. Sponsored by NASA and Honeywell, the Nov. 14 assembly combined hip-hop music about concepts like inertia, video clips of an Isaac Newton impersonator interviewing people on a public street, and student participation to convey the basic principles of physics.

Broken hip doesn’t stop area seniors from vows Parker couple ties knot in hospital room By Chris Michlewicz

If wild horses couldn’t drag him away, a broken hip surely wouldn’t stop Wilfred Stallan. His whirlwind romance with Parker resident Shirley Golden was capped with a kiss during the couple’s Nov. 2 wedding ceremony, which took place in a room at Parker Adventist Hospital. It was an entirely different location than originally planned, but that was OK with the beautiful bride. Like many relationships these days, Golden and Stallan’s courtship began online. What makes them unusual, however, is that Stallan is 83 years old and Golden is 76. They got in touch last April on OurTime, a website that connects older adults who share similar interests. Golden was initially looking for a friend, but she and Stallan quickly fell in love. Six weeks ago, he proposed over the phone because “he couldn’t wait,” Golden said. “He was telling me how much he loved me and just said `I want to get married,’” she said. “Well I said, `you haven’t asked me yet.’ And so he asked and I said, `of course!’” It wasn’t exactly the old-fashioned way of doing things, but as Golden explains it, their age doesn’t allow them time to wait on these kinds of decisions. Stallan moved from Westminster and

in with Golden, who lives with her adult daughter and her family. The couple, both widowed, decided to get married at the Parker Senior Center, but one day before the wedding, Stallan lost his balance in the yard and fell. He was transported to Parker Adventist, where an X-ray showed that his hip was broken. Golden assumed the ceremony would be postponed, but Stallan wouldn’t hear of it. “He was bound and determined that he was going to get married before surgery,” the bride said. The hospital gave the green light on having the wedding there and she called the minster to inform him of the change of plans. Golden’s son gave her away, and her best friend of 66 years was her matron of honor. The groom’s longtime buddy stood as his best man while Stallan lay in the hospital bed, holding hands with Golden. “It was really very nice. We had the cake brought over here and we had my family and his family there,” said Golden, who told the story over the phone during a short break from staying at her husband’s bedside. She never pictured herself marrying again, let alone in a hospital, but as the online love connection and sudden accident proved, things don’t always go as planned. Stallan’s surgery was scheduled for 3 p.m. Nov. 2, just after the ceremony, but a “tiny piece of cake” postponed it until 7 that night. He will spend three weeks at a rehabilitation center before moving into an apartment in Parker with his wife.

When thanks is the reward of giving A few hundred men and women form a thin, bedraggled line that follows the sidewalk from the Denver City and County Building along the edge of Civic Center Park. They slowly shift their way forward — for some it will take two to three hours — to a 23-table buffet nearly the length of a city block, laden with all the trimmings of Thanksgiving dinner. Mikayla Sullivan, 17, stands near the end, her small frame draped in a black, wool coat, a gray Broncos cap sitting backwards on her strawberry-blonde hair. She doesn’t mind the wait. She’s thankful for the food. “We can eat,” Mikayla says. She and her boyfriend are living for the moment in a pay-by-the-day motel. She smiles, holding an unlit cigarette between her fingers. She’s also thankful for her 11- and 12-year old sisters back home in Indianapolis. But when she mentions them, she struggles to keep tears from filling her green eyes. “This is the first Thanksgiving that …” Her voice trails off. For six hours on this second Saturday in November, hundreds of men, women and children dine at tables covered in golden plastic tablecloths decorated with vases of fall flowers. They spread across a closed-off Bannock Street in front of the city’s government building. David Clifton Ministries in Lakewood, a nonprofit that works with the homeless and needy, has served this dinner for 19 years with the help of an army of volunteers. They are young and old. They ladle food onto plates and clean up and carry trays to tables for those who can’t on their own. They help wherever they can. “Water,” a young woman with a nametag that reads “Savannah” calls out

as she walks along the line with a tray of cups. “Water.” JoAnn Trudell, 63, reaches for one. “Thank you for taking care of us,” she says with a smile. JoAnn, shoulder-length white hair topped by a beanie of the same color, is here with her friend, Joyce Ann Schneider, 67. They pull an empty purple suitcase they hope to fill with food to take home. “We’re not homeless, but we’re disabled,” JoAnn says. “We don’t make enough to make a Thanksgiving meal, to have Thanksgiving treats and special things — and this is just wonderful. It makes us so happy, like we’re more a part of the human race.” Most of the diners are homeless. Some have roofs over their heads, living in subsidized housing or with family and friends, but — like JoAnn — say they are grateful for a meal they cannot afford. Hunger. An anguish most of us don’t feel. But numbers prove it is very real: Nearly one in seven Coloradans faced times in 2013 when they didn’t have enough money to buy food for their families or themselves. More than one in five households with children faced financial challenges to put food on the table. More than one in four working families do not have enough money to meet their basic needs.

That’s according to Hunger Free Colorado, the state’s leading anti-hunger organization. And consider this: The Metro Denver Homeless Initiative reported 5,812 homeless men, women and children as of January in the seven-county metro Denver area. And of the 2,230 men, women and children who were at-risk for homelessness, nearly two-thirds were living in households with children. At the end of the buffet line, at an area of tables heavy with piles of jackets and shirts and pants, Heather Mondy, 38, searches for clothes for her three daughters. “Mom, I like this one,” a daughter shouts, trying on a beige, wool coat. Heather lugs a second trash bag filled with clothes to the grass where her family rests. She and her children traveled from Golden, where she lives in Section 8 federally subsidized housing, “to hang out with people who are not going to be judgmental or mean…” They enjoyed the dinner, but the clothing was a true blessing, she says. “I’m definitely going to be able to dress them warm… and cute this year.” A petite woman with sparkly sunglasses and long auburn hair, she is thankful for the day. “I’m blessed we can still come together peacefully,” Heather says, “and we still have heart for helping the ones who need our help.” At one of the tables, a 63-year-old woman leans back, eyes closed, swaying to the jazzy music from the nearby band. Her late husband was a veteran, she says. A few nights a week, she stays with her son in his subsidized apartment. She spends the other nights at St. Francis Center, a shelter for homeless men and women.

“Right now,” she says, “I’m looking for a permanent home.” She stood in line for three hours to partake of the banquet. The turkey. The stuffing. The green beans and mashed potatoes and gravy. “I’m going to take some home for later tonight,” she says, then laughs softly. “And breakfast in the morning.” She speaks with graceful elegance and asks her name not be used. She’s been homeless off and on for the past six years. It’s a weary struggle she hopes will end soon. Yet she remains grateful. “I’m thankful for my health and strength, for being able to walk around,” she says. “Most of all, my spirituality. Faith is the expectation of unforeseen things. And that’s what carries me on every day.” The sun begins to sink on the outdoor Thanksgiving feast. The line is no longer hundreds deep. Diners, scattered along the tables, linger, listening to the waning melodies of the band. Simple expressions of gratitude tumble in the gentle darkness: Jackie Russell, 53, homeless: “Being alive.” Mystic Aberle, 32, volunteer: “Having a warm place to stay.” Paul Winters, 47, on disability: “Being able to give God thanks.” Tami Bigandt, 46, volunteer: “That my daily needs are met… that I have food.” True thanks giving.

Task force sees changes at topR Charity introduces new director By Mike DiFerdinando

mdiferdinando @coloradocommunitymedia.com Changes have come for one of the area’s most active charitable organizations. After 11 years as the executive director of the Douglas/Elbert Task Force, Suzanne Greene will be retiring at the end of the year. “My 11 years as the executive director of the Douglas/Elbert Task Force have been very happy ones,” she said. “We’ve grown from a small agency serving a few thousand people each year, to one that serves about 15,000 people a year, and provides in excess of $1.1 million in assistance annually. “We’ve grown from a small store and rental space housing our agency in sep-

arate buildings to a large facility where all of our services are under one roof … where our food bank is on the ground floor, where clients are no longer crowded in a tiny office and where shoppers comment daily about our spacious, organized and fun store.” Greene will be replaced by Marcella Shadle, who most recently served as the development director at Southeast Community Outreach (SECOR), a charitable organization based in Parker that is similar in nature to the Douglas/Elbert Task Force, providing temporary assistance for those in need to succeed long term and without dependence or assistance from charitable or government agencies. Also similar to the Douglas/Elbert Task Force, SECOR runs a food bank that reaches out into several counties in metro Denver, with the majority of clients residing in Douglas, Elbert and Arapahoe counties. “I know that I leave the Douglas/Elbert Task Force in very good hands. Marcella

Shadle has many stellar qualities, and some really great experience, but most importantly, she has the heart to do the work,” Greene said. “I’m confident that the culture of caring and compassion, of ethical and sound business practices that we’ve worked so hard to instill, and our mission of `helping through troublesome times with dignity’ will continue and only grow stronger.” Shadle, who lives in Centennial, began her duties as executive director Nov. 3. Shadle “I’m so honored to continue the work that Suzanne started here,” she said. “I’m so passionate about the work we do. I go to bed thinking about the people suffering in our community and the ways that we can make their lives better. I’m looking forward to figuring out new ways to move the organization into the future.”

Shadle said she plans to be out in theVic community as much as possible to rally befo new people to the task force’s cause. According to Shadle, the biggest obstacle By C in moving the task force further ahead is spreading its message and getting in frontcmic @col of people who can make a difference. The new executive director also points out that renovations to the task force A building set to begin in early Decemberleged will create more space and allow for ex- O pansion and additional services, such asmen a larger area to receive donations and of-Park fer new client services in 2015. The Douglas/Elbert Task Force tries to meet the immediate needs of residents of Douglas and Elbert counties who are in financial distress and/or at risk of becoming homeless. In 2013, the task force distributed $1.1 million in assistance, including $761,491 in food, hygiene and household supplies.

Nonprofit helps seniors stay in homes Neighbor Network office manager: County has great need for volunteers By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com To everyone else, they are family members, friends and co-workers. To 200 Douglas County seniors, they are knights in shining armor. The Neighbor Network, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping seniors stay in their homes, made recent news when its office manager, Nancy Nielsen, was awarded for her selflessness. Nielsen described the experience as “humbling,”

but she views the exposure as an opportunity to drum up support in the form of willing volunteers and donors. As Nielsen tells it, she found herself in 2004 sitting on the couch, watching hours of soap operas, when she was struck by a revelation: She needed to make better use of her Nielsen time. The Parker resident promptly volunteered for three local organizations, including the Neighbor Network. The coalition of 72 volunteers spends its time taking seniors to medical appointments and grocery shopping, and providing companionship to those who are isolated. During the summer, the

The real-life inspiration for the hit movie

helpers perform yard work for seniors. In the winter, they shovel snow. “Anything we can do, that’s what we do for them,” Nielsen says. “There is nothing we will not try.” The Neighbor Network, which is funded strictly by grants and donations, has volunteer positions with names like “fix-it coordinator” and “grocery coordinator.” While the group has capably addressed the local needs of many seniors, there are 50 people on the waiting list who are in need of a helping hand. Anyone who has two or three hours per week to spare is a good candidate. “There is really a great need for volunteers in Douglas County,” Nielsen said. There is immense gratitude for the work that gets done, but those coordinating the efforts get just as much out of

helping. Nielsen calls the work rewarding, and those around her say that observing Nielsen in action is uplifting. Karie Erickson, executive director of the Neighbor Network, said Nielsen answers hundreds of requests for service per month and “always gives her best to each caller.” “Nancy has such a heart for service,” Erickson said. “She comes to work and truly makes a difference to those she helps — always giving an encouraging word, helping to solve a problem, and coming up with resources that will make someone’s life better.” As long as she is assisting seniors in staying “independent and happy,” Nielsen is satisfied. To get involved in the Neighbor Network, call 303-660-7519 or go to www.dcneighbornetwork.org.

Road rage leads to assault, cops say Victim and suspect fled before police arrived By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz @coloradocommunitymedia.com A social media post led to the arrest of a man who allegedly assaulted a teen after a car accident. Officers responded to a call of a fight between two men near the intersection of Jordan Road and Bradbury Parkway Nov. 8. Witnesses said both men were outside of their vehicles during the altercation, but both the victim and suspect left prior to police arriving. The suspect was later identified by an anonymous informant as Steve Paula, 43, of Parker. He was booked into the Douglas County Detention Center Nov. 14 and charged with third-degree assault. A police incident report says the inforPaula mant told the victim that a video of the incident had been posted to Snapchat and later erased, but that still images from the video had been preserved. The video was reportedly posted by the suspect’s daughter. Parker police dispatchers located a Department of Motor Vehicles photo of Paula and investigators compared it to a still image from the video. They concluded

that Paula, who is listed at 330 pounds on his driver’s license, was the suspect. More than an hour after the assault, the Parker Police Department responded to a call from the alleged victim’s parents, who were at Parker Adventist Hospital with their son, Mason Deal. They said they found Deal disoriented in the family’s garage with cuts, bumps and bruises on his face. He later told them that a large man had attacked him, but that he was unsure whether an accident had preceded the confrontation. A police officer who interviewed Deal said he “repeated himself multiple times and would forget that we already spoke about certain topics.” Deal told the officer that he lost count of how many punches hit him after the first one landed and that he did not remember fighting back. Deal also said he did not remember driving home. Witnesses reported seeing a large Hispanic male punch a teen several times and that the teen did not strike back. One man estimated that the altercation lasted less than 30 seconds. He said a female was trying to break the two men up and kept saying “leave it alone,” “relax” and “stop.” The witness later saw a TV news segment featuring Deal’s version of events and disputed at least a portion of the story, telling police that the teen was never lying unconscious on the ground. When contacted by investigators, Paula and his wife also told police they weren’t getting the whole story. “(Paula’s wife) said she did not condone what Steven did but that Steven did not pull Mason out of the car, like he stated in (the) news,” the incident report says.

`Rudy’ to inspire chamber members, teens

The Parker Area Chamber of Commerce has announced Rudy Ruettiger as its keynote speaker for the 2014 Chamber Community Celebration. Tickets for the celebration, formerly known as the

Paula told police he was attempting to merge on southbound Jordan Road where it narrows to one lane, and that Deal sped up his SUV and “would not let him over.” The lanes merge and there was nowhere else for him to go because there is a median, Paula said. His attempt to merge led to a minor collision and the other driver flipped him off, he said. Paula claimed Deal got out of his car and began yelling obscenities, and he did not want his children be “be around that behavior.” He admitted to punching Deal twice before leaving the scene. Paula said he did not call police because “the damage was minimal,” the incident report says. Deal said he parked his car and was gathering his proof of insurance and registration “thinking they would exchange information,” when he was assaulted. He told police he did not remember whether he got out of his car. The date of Paula’s first court appearance was not immediately available.

Nanci & Steve Trevino NATURAL REMINDERS Before recorded history, flowers have been used to glorify the memory of the deceased at funerals. Their natural beauty is both uplifting and a subtle reminder that life is fleeting, as the blooms eventually fade. With this in mind, funeral prearrangement frequently encompasses the selection of the funeral spray, which often takes the form of a mass of flowers that drape over the casket. In addition, stands can be used to arrange flowers in a cascaded effect around the coffin. A local florist can help in this selection. Similarly, family and guests may show their love, respect, and affection with floral gifts. The funeral director can be helpful in choosing the most appropriate way of doing so.

Dennis Houston, president and CEO of the chamber, said the chamber is partnering with community sponsors to host Ruettiger for a school assembly program for a few thousand Parker area high school students. “Our goal is to get Rudy and his powerful message of overcoming obstacles to

E-470 announces new toll rates for 2015 Effective Jan. 1, rates at all tolling points on E-470 will rise by five cents for ExpressToll customers and by five to 10 cents for those billed via License Plate Toll. ExpressToll customers whose vehicles are equipped with transponders pay about 20 percent less than those billed through License Plate Toll. The 2015 E-470 toll rates for a two-axle vehicle will be as follows: the ExpressToll rate at Toll Plaza A, between Chambers Road and Peoria Street, will be $2.50; the

ExpressToll rate will be $2.75 at the other four toll plazas. All ExpressToll ramp tolls will be $1.15. For those without an ExpressToll pass, the rate at Toll Plaza A will be $3.15, up 10 cents; the License Plate Toll rate will be $3.45 at the other four toll plazas, up five cents. All License Plate Toll ramp tolls will be $1.45, up five cents. The 2015 toll increase corresponds with the toll rate policy approved by the E-470 board of directors in 2010. The board voted for incremental annual increases, rather than waiting three years to raise tolls.

Time once again for thinking about thanking We still haven’t managed to screw up Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is a great day to be together with your family and friends, and to consume too much. Houses still look like houses on the outside, for another day or two. We don’t dogpile for electronics or badlooking sweaters. Yet. It’s just you and gravy. Mashed potatoes and gravy. Mashed potatoes and gravy and slices of turkey with a sidecar of stuffing and cranberries. My 90-year-old friend wanted trout. So I fixed trout. We had trout and asparagus. I can’t remember the first time I ate asparagus. I might not have had asparagus for the first time until I was in college. It seemed like a distant vegetable, like artichoke hearts. Some vegetarians make allowances for turkey, chicken and seafood. I don’t get it. I don’t have any heartwarming stories about Thanksgiving, or even any funny ones. I spend most Thanksgivings by myself. Don’t go getting sad. Holidays don’t mean very much to me. Days mean a lot to me. Maybe if I had little Vera, Chuck and Dave things would be different. But I don’t. I have Smitty on Thanksgiving. And I might have a little bit of Jennifer, but it’s only after she has spent most of the day with her kids. I guess this is a meaningful Thanksgiving story. At least it’s meaningful to me. I was asked to draw the Thanksgiving mu-

ral for our classroom when I was in the fifth grade. I don’t remember how I did it or where I did it. I must have done it right there on the same wall where it was taped up on Parents’ Night. I probably drew it with colored pencils and crayons. It was meaningful to me because I was being recognized for something that became my major in college and my major in life. I’d like to know what my references were. Indians, pilgrims, and what else? I have never been very good at drawing groups of people sitting outdoors at picnic tables with overfilled plates in front of them. But I guess I was good enough. It must be very interesting for parents to see what inclination and talent their children exhibit. “Oh, no, Anouk. He likes to make candles.” The father of a well-known candle maker said just about that. Now his son is a millionaire. How do we become who we become? How do we wind up where we wind up? Biographies and autobiographies interest

To maximize magic, minimize mayhem Here comes Hanukkah and here comes Christmas. Wait … first we get to enjoy Thanksgiving, don’t we? Studies show how much better retailers do when they begin promoting the holidays sooner. However, I wonder how we all do as consumers during the rush and crush of the holiday season. Do we focus on the magic or do we get swallowed up by the mayhem? I can’t think of a “Black Friday” in recent years where we didn’t see some type of news report where someone was trampled or where chaos erupted in an effort to make sure that people were first through the door and would be guaranteed a newly released game, toy or gadget. Our desire to “have what we want” instead of “wanting what we have” feeds the instant gratification demons within us. And sometimes the result is a demonstration of behavior that strips others of their dignity as we take out our anger and disappointment for not getting what we want when we want it

on some very nice, unassuming and undeserving employee. Advertising and marketing, cause and effect, right? The ad agencies and marketing wizards do their jobs extremely well and drive the hype. In turn, that hype contributes to the mayhem. Again, companies will point to top line revenue and profitability that keeps them in business and gives them a stronger position that enables them to serve us better Norton continues on Page 9

me more than fiction does. How did Edgar Allan Poe become Edgar Allan Poe? Poe died when he was only 40, and there are still question marks about his death. Some think that he died from alcohol poisoning. Another theory is that he died from rabies, maybe from a cat bite. Poe kept cats. Where was I? Thanksgiving. As I said, we haven’t ruined it yet with music and decorations and gift shopping. That comes later. The next day. The days between Thanksgiving and Jan. 2 are very chimerical. Unreal and unrealistic, like no other span of time during the year. I don’t particularly look forward to it. I did at one time. There was time off from school, and the smell of a fresh-cut tree in the house. Until the 1960s when someone came up with the idea of an aluminum Christmas tree with a nearby rotating light, that changed the color of the aluminum from red to green to blue to yellow. It was dreadful. Santa didn’t touch our cookies. He did leave a note, however. “Your tree is reprehensible. S. Claus.” It took me a while to warm up to stuffing. Not now. But keep those giblets away from me. Happy Thanksgiving, and thanks for reading. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Religious charities not great for schools There are numerous non-denominational charities begging for contributions to help third world children and U.S. Children as well, i.e. Save the Children, UNICEF, Toys for Tots, etc. One only needs to Google children’s charities and select one or even two! But, of course that doesn’t happen. The majority always seems to think that others’ beliefs don’t count. Personally, I would prefer to contribute to all Jewish charities, which I do, but I don’t expect the children in the public schools that my taxes pay to educate to support them. This is the same reason I don’t want my tax dollars to pay for private education/ vouchers. The school administration should have known better. The parents should have known better. I don’t necessarily support a lawsuit but sometimes, people just don’t get it without some demonstrative action.

Tackling the age-3 gap Nonprofit launches new initiative for kids with special needs

csteadman @coloradocommunitymedia.com Not many parents dread their child’s third birthday. But Kristin and Jared Hoover, parents of 2½-year-old Jacob, who has Down syndrome, worry that Jacob’s learning progression will cease when he turns 3. At 3, the family’s Developmental Pathways services — including Jacob’s occupational therapy — will terminate for two years, until he begins school when the state takes over to provide assistance. “Zero to 3 is covered,” Kristin said. “Three to 5, there’s kind of a gap.” And those two years are a critical time for growth and development in a child’s life, said Jason Berney, media and event planner for the SUN Foundation, the fundraising arm of Developmental Pathways. “Jacob has developed so incredibly well,” Kristin said, “but I worry about what happens to him from age 3 to 5. Will my son be able to eat with a fork or write his name by the time he goes to school?” Developmental Pathways is a Colorado nonprofit agency created to serve people, and their families, with developmental disabilities from birth to end of life. It works with six school districts in the Denver-metro area, including districts in Arapahoe and Douglas counties. The nonprofit’s Early Intervention Department provides much needed services and support for families until the age of 3.

throughout the year. I totally get that, I guess I just wish we could find the right balance between the magic of the season and the mayhem that comes along with it. Now there are many people who have figured this formula out. They have become adept at shopping throughout the year so that when the holiday season hits, they have no need to fight the crowds on “Black Friday” and for the following four or five weeks. There are others who have become masters of online shopping and have minimal need to compete or wait on line. And when I see how the online shoppers and early bird shoppers appear emotionally and attitudinally as compared to their frenzied counterpart shoppers, the calmness is discernible. Now shopping may only be a part of the mayhem. Others experience a real anxiety when it comes to the holidays. They have developed a perfectionist mentality and everything from the decorations, wrapping paper, the lights, the music, gifts, dinners, and parties must be absolutely perfect. And the dread that something might just be excellent or even average sets them off into their own despair. If we can just remember that mayhem is akin to panic as it can be our worst enemy. Instead, we can focus on the fact that nothing is ever as bad as it seems and that all will be well. Magic.

The Hoover Family, from left, Kristin, holding Jacob, a 2½-year-old boy with Down syndrome, and Jared, right, share their story Nov. 13 at the SUN-Raiser Breakfast Ask to advocate for Developmental Pathways’ 3+ Initiative. The initiative will help families with children between the ages 3 and 5 with developmental disabilities. Photo by Christy Steadman Recently, in an effort to help families with special needs children between the ages of 3 and 5, Developmental Pathways launched the 3+ Initiative. “The 3+ Iniative was created out of the desperation of our families looking for support,” said Melanie Worley, CEO of Developmental Pathways. “We need community support in order for this initiative to be suc-

What if we focused on the magic? The magical moments found when we share a meal with our family and friends, the true magical feeling that comes as we volunteer to help others, the magic of giving instead of receiving. You see, pacing is everything when it comes to managing the magic and minimizing the mayhem that comes with the season. Are we participating at the pace that makes us feel comfortable, maybe even magical? Or are we the victim of the pace that has been created for us? Mayhem. The good news is that the choice is up to us regarding the pace and path that we choose. As Thanksgiving approaches I encourage you to give some consideration to what the upcoming season really means to you, your family and your friends, and what your personal pace will be. Let’s enjoy this holiday for everything that it is meant to be, let it set the foundation of gratitude and appreciation in our hearts and minds so that when we have finished that last piece of pumpkin pie and sipped our final cup of coffee or cordial on Thanksgiving, we are mentally and spiritually prepared to enter the rest of the holiday season. So is it magic or mayhem for you? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com and when we focus on the magic instead of the mayhem, it really will be a better than good holiday season.

cessful.” The new 3+ Iniative was developed within the last six months, and its first public outreach event was a SUN-Raiser Breakfast Ask, which took place Nov. 13 at the Denver Tech Center Marriot. The event will most likely become annual, Berney said. It will cornerstone the nonprofit’s main event, the Pathway Client Achievement Awards, which takes place in the spring every year. Developmental Pathways, which celebrated its 50th anniversary this year, serves 5,500 people, with an additional 2,200 on a wait-list to receive the nonprofit’s services. The organization can provide services for any developmental disability, Berney said, but most commonly, it helps those with autism, cerebral palsy and Down syndrome. “There are 500 stories just like Jacob’s,” said Deb Bosch, the SUN Foundation’s director.

These children need the support that can come from the 3+ Initiative, she added. “It will impact them forever,” Worley said. “We are confident that the 3+ Initiative will help bridge the gap.” Depending on the individual needs of each child, one kid can potentially have a therapy team of three to 10 people, Bosch said. And each therapy session can cost up to $90 an hour. Developmental Pathways can help match individuals with a team of therapists, and help the families with funding for therapy. “It goes above and beyond,” Berney said, “(and) provides additional support if needed.” Jacob is thriving because of the help of his three occupational therapists, Kristin said. Additionally, Developmental Pathways has been instrumental in helping her and Jared be great parents. “Learning to be new parents of a child with special needs is a wonderful journey,” Kristin said, “but it is also challenging, sometimes scary and sometimes even a little overwhelming.” But the experts and therapists who are part of the Developmental Pathways team identified Jacob’s “learning styles, his strengths, his greatest challenges,” Kristin said, and “develop goals to keep us in check.” She said the organization has the leadership, talent, passion and compassion to make a difference, and supporting the 3+ Initiative will help make a difference in hundreds of children’s lives, which will impact their entire future. “To invest in kiddos like Jacob is such a generous offering,” Kristin said. Jacob closed the presentation at the SUN-Raiser Breakfast Ask when he smiled and signed “please help.”

State poetry contest open for business Students vie for chance to represent Colorado By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Registration is now open for a state-backed poetry competition, and prospective participants have until Jan. 13 to decide whether to be — or not to be — part of the contest. The Poetry Out Loud competition is a program designed to give high school students the ability to learn about poetry through memorization, performance and competition.

303.731.0401

Participants will pick from selected poems to interpret, with one state winner advancing to the national finals in April in Washington, D.C. The competition marks the 10th year of the program, which collaborates with the National Endowment for the Arts and the Poetry Foundation. “It’s definitely been rewarding and we’ve had some really successful students here,” said Christy Costello, program manager for Colorado Creative Industries, an art advocacy program backed by the state’s Office of Economic Development and International Trade. Students will interpret two poems of their choosing from selected readings. One is a poem of 25 lines or fewer, the other being a poem that was written prior to the 20th century. Students who are interested in participating should encourage teachers or administrators at their school to register

for the program. Registration must be done through the school and not by the individual student. State finalists will compete in Lakewood on March 3. The state champion will win $200 and an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington to compete in the national competition. The Poetry Out Loud national champion will win a $20,000 prize. In 2011, then-Thornton High School student Samuel Opoku won the statewide competition and finished fourth in the national competition. However, the contest isn’t just about winning, Costello said. “The goal of program is to teach memorization and to keep poetry alive across the nation,” Costello said. For more information about the competition, go to coloradocreativeindustries.org or call Rachael Deagman at 720-2533337.

An image captured by Parker photographer Tom Kerkhoff will be displayed in Sen. Michael Bennet’s office in Washington, D.C. The senator’s office reached out to several artists’ guilds in Colorado looking for art to display. As a member of the Parker Artists Guild, Kerkhoff submitted his image titled, “Durango Narrow Gauge,” and after

careful consideration, his photograph was selected. He is the owner of Kerkhoff Photography & Design in Parker and has been a photographer for his entire career, specializing in family and high school senior portraits. When his mother passed away from cancer four years ago, he decided to start selling his scenic photography that she loved, to try to help raise money for cancer research. Kerkhoff donates 20 percent of his scenic sales to the Cancer League of Colorado.

Dems tout diversity in leadership picks

GOP tabs state Senate leaders Colorado Springs Republican Bill Cadman to serve as president By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com A unified Senate Republican caucus on Nov. 11 unanimously put in place a leadership team that will guide the chamber’s new majority party through the next legislative session. It came as no surprise that the 18-member caucus tabbed Sen. Bill Cadman of Colorado Springs as Senate president. Cadman has served in the Legislature since 2000 and has represented Republicans as Senate minority leader the last four sessions. Cadman infused some humor into the proceedings as he reminded those in attendance of how long it had taken him to finally oversee a Republican majority. “As we prepare to serve in the majority — I have to say it again — as we prepare to serve in the majority,” Cadman said to laughter from inside a large-sized Capitol committee hearing room. “We got the big room. I haven’t been in here in eight years.” When the legislative session begins in mid-January, Republicans will enjoy an 18-17 majority, the same one-seat advantage Democrats held last year. That’s thanks in part to victories by Republican candidates in a few key Senate districts, including a win by Beth Martinez-Humenik in the Adams County-based Senate District 24, a tight race that wasn’t called until days after the election. While Republicans will hold a slim majority in the Senate, the opposite will be true in the House, where Democrats held

on to their majority following the results from Nov. 4. That reality is not lost on Cadman. “We have to stay focused on what brings us together as a caucus, not what divides us,” Cadman urged his members. Cadman’s right-hand-man next session will continue to be Sen. Mark Scheffel of Parker, who will serve as majority leader. Scheffel, who was elected to his District 4 seat in 2008, has served as assistant minority leader under Cadman for the last three years. “It’s humbling. It’s an honor. It’s a privilege,” Scheffel said after being heaped with praise by Cadman, who nominated Scheffel for the position. Two women will serve on the new leadership team: Sen. Ellen Roberts of Durango, who was elected Senate president pro-tem and Sen. Vickie Marble of Fort Collins, who will serve as Republican caucus chairwoman. Sen. Randy Baumgardner of Hot Sulfur Springs, who will serve as majority whip, will hold the job of counting and rounding up votes on legislation. With its new majority, Republicans will double the number of members that will sit on the Joint Budget Committee, which oversees the forming of the annual state budget. Sen. Kent Lambert of Colorado Springs will continue to serve on the committee with new JBC member Sen. Kevin Grantham of Canon City joining him. At the end of the proceedings, Cadman and his colleagues exchanged Peyton Manning jerseys, with the Denver Broncos quarterback’s No. 18 symbolizing the number of GOP members that will serve in the chamber over which Cadman will preside. “Eighteen is what it takes to make a majority,” he said. “We are all the 18th member of this team.”

The state House Democratic Caucus came together on Nov. 14 to elect a new leadership team that will be made up almost entirely of either minorities or women when lawmakers begin work in January. They will include Colorado’s first female speaker of the state House of Representatives since 2003. Rep. Dickey Lee Hullinghorst of Gunbarrel was tabbed speaker following a unanimous vote during a leadership election gathering inside the Capitol. Hullinghorst, who was first elected to her House District 10 seat in 2008, had previously served as majority leader under outgoing speaker Mark Ferrandino of Denver, who is term-limited. Hullinghorst thanked her colleagues and recalled what it was like having first walked into the Capitol as an elected official about six years ago. “It gave me chills, just like I’m feeling right Hullinghorst now,” she said. When Hullinghorst takes the speaker’s gavel in early January, she will become the first female speaker since Lola Spradley. Hullinghorst will lead a House that has a Democratic majority of 34-31, a smaller seat advantage than Ferrandino enjoyed last year, due to a few Democratic losses in the Nov. 4 election. Ferrandino also had the luxury of a Democratic Senate majority. That won’t happen now that Republicans hold a oneseat advantage in that chamber following election results from earlier this month. “There are those who say that a split legislature is a huge challenge…” Hullinghorst said. “I prefer to consider it a huge opportunity.” Hullinghorst also praised Ferrandino’s two-year stewardship in the House, where she said the outgoing speaker “accomplished more for the people of Colorado than any other Legislature.” The election of Hullinghorst for speaker by acclimation was one of the few uncontested leadership races voted on by House Democrats. Among the contested battles was that of House Majority Leader, which Rep. Crisanta Duran of Denver won. Dems continues on Page 25

When “FMA Live!” actors spun a Velcro wall to face the audience, student Wyatt Bevill was hanging sideways from it. He and student Jimmy Dean then took turns launching from a springboard during a lesson about Newton’s First Law of Motion. The assembly also put faculty members in the thick of the action. Principal Chris Zimmerman and health teacher Beau Davies dressed in sumo suits and slammed into each other to demonstrate the idea that force equals mass times acceleration (the equation for which “FMA Live!” is named). “The kids, every single one of them, when I looked at their faces, they were engaged in it,” Zimmerman said. In an attempt to represent Newton’s Third Law of Motion that states “for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction,” assistant principal Cindy Corlett subjected herself to a new type of dunk tank. Two teams of Cimarron students flung rubber balls from a

district were to mislead the community into thinking their `accredited with distinction’ (means) the reforms have resulted in overall improvement in academic achievement, when that clearly isn’t the case,” Mutton said. “This board promised to improve academic achievement. We haven’t seen any significant gain. That’s important for the community to know.” But CDE accountability director Alyssa Pearson believes the district earned the boost in its ranking. “There are things to celebrate from 2013 to 2014,” she said. DCSD is among several districts that serve a significant number of students in Alternative Education Campuses. Recent state legislation allows the state to re-evaluate the accreditation category of such districts. In Douglas County, those campuses include Castle Rock’s Daniel C. Oakes alternative high school, Eagle Academy night high school held at Highlands Ranch High, and Hope Online high school. Hope Online, which began operating as a DCSD charter school in 2008, offers K-12 virtual learning to students statewide. Most have limited educational options and do not live in Douglas County.

slingshot and tried to hit a target that would dump the contents of a vat above Corlett’s head. When one ball hit its mark, she was doused in applesauce, to the delight of nearly 500 seventh-graders. To Corlett, the mess was worth it. She says it’s important to make education fun. “With the 21st Century learners that we have, they are poised to really run our world, but they need excitement in their learning to carry them through,” she said. “Middle school is a perfect time to get kids interested in science, technology and math because they get choices in high school, and then in college and their career.” The scenes were repeated twice more that day for the school’s sixth- and eighth-graders. Earlier in the week, “FMA Live!” also stopped by Cresthill Middle School in Highlands Ranch and Castle Rock Middle School. The assembly took a year of planning because of all of the logistics involved. A massive stage was set up in the gymnasium and lights and speakers added to the energetic atmosphere. “We wanted this to be a great experience that the kids will always remember, and it looks like it was,” Corlett said.

In 2013, DCSD made a similar appeal to the state, but removing the alternative education students wasn’t enough to move the district into the “distinction” category then. In 2014, removing that data combined with improvements in graduation rates for all students, graduation rates for students with disabilities, and the composite ACT score was sufficient to elevate the district’s rating. Additionally, while the alternative ed students weren’t part of the 2014 reconsideration, their performances also improved. Larsen said he’s proud of DCSD for reaching out to Hope Online and other high-risk students. “Some districts may look at it and say the cost of this rating, our reputation, is too great for us,” he said. “We never took that approach. We thought this is worthy, and we’re in the business of providing good education. If we can extend beyond our traditional path to a school, or a school network with kids who really need a place to learn, we’re all for it. “The fact that they’ve steadily increased each year and now have moved themselves into the performance category — it seems like we’re all winning. And most importantly the kids are winning. I find that to be a good story.” Twenty-seven of the state’s 182 districts received the “accredited with distinction” ranking in 2014. Some of those on the Front Range are Littleton, Boulder Valley, Monument’s Lewis-Palmer, and Academy and Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado Springs. The majority of the state’s districts— 102 — are designated “accredited.”

Alternatives Pregnancy Center

Arapahoe/Douglas Mental Health Network

www.YouhaveAlternatives.org

www.admhn.org

Alternatives Pregnancy Center has been serving the Douglas County community for over 20 years with help and hope for women, teens and men in unintended pregnancy. Our first location in Denver was founded in 1982. Currently we have seven Denver Metro offices including Parker and a Mobile Testing Clinic serving Castle Rock weekly. We see thousands of women as they struggle with the decisions surrounding an unintended pregnancy. The pressure is not only internal—outside circumstances often add confusion and pressure to the situation. When women are confronted with the difficult circumstances of an unplanned pregnancy, they deserve to be offered not only practical help for now, but also bright hope for the future. Alternatives is a safe place for a woman to contemplate a life-changing event: • For those who see the pregnancy as a “crisis” where the only way out is abortion. • For those who are unsure about what to do and need counseling and information. • For those who have decided to carry their baby to term and need resources and referrals. • For those who have had an abortion and need post-abortion counseling • For those who want to make an adoption plan.

Following the example of Christian love, we offer Denver area women alternatives to abortion by providing practical care for women and their families through education, counseling, pregnancy tests, material goods and referrals. In addition, Alternatives seeks to educate young people about premarital sexual abstinence and we seek to help women find healing through our post-abortion counseling program. Alternatives recently added Sexually Transmitted Disease Testing and Treatment Program coupled with lifestyle counseling. All of our services are free and confidential. Contact us on our 24-Hour Helpline: 303.295.2288 or our website at www. YouhaveAlternatives.org.

Arapahoe/Douglas Mental Health Network (ADMHN) is a private, nonprofit provider of professional, confidential, quality mental health and addiction treatment services for children, adolescents, adults, and families. Our mission is to strengthen individual, family and community wellness by providing exceptional, compassionate, inclusive, responsive and integrated behavioral health care. While ADMHN accepts clients from any region, our primary focus is Arapahoe and Douglas counties. Last year we served over 10,000 unique clients. We have nine offices providing a wide range of services, including 24-hour crisis response and emergency services, outpatient services for children and adults, case management, psychiatric services, victims services, socialization and recreational activities, vocational services, an acute treatment unit, hospital management, an in-house pharmacy, criminal justice services and a primary care clinic for adult clients. Our comprehensive network of services allows us to be responsive to community needs with programs

that have both considerable reach and depth. Suicide intervention and prevention are an extremely important part of all of the work that we do. Colorado has the fifth highest suicide rate in the country and far too many of these losses are people in our own counties. We provide prevention and intervention through education, outreach and trainings designed to empower the people of our communities to help others in crisis. There’s a good chance that you — or someone you know — will experience emotional or behavioral challenges at some point. After all, behavioral health issues affect one out of every four Colorado families each year. It is an equalopportunity disease that can happen to anyone at any time. Whether you have anxiety, stress, depression, drug or alcohol addiction, or bipolar disorder — or any other mental health challenge — it doesn’t have to take over your life or your loved ones’ lives. Proper diagnosis and treatment lead to very successful outcomes and recoveries.

Castle Rock Senior (Community) Center

Chelsea Hutchison Foundation

www.castlerockseniorcenter.org

www.chelseahutchisonfoundation.org

The Castle Rock Senior Center has been in operation since 1971. Founded originally by a small group as a senior citizen club, it has evolved with the growth of the area into the premier organization for seniors in Douglas County. Douglas County has the fastest growing population of people over 60 in the United States. By 2030, one in every four people in Castle Rock will be over 60.

The Chelsea Hutchison Foundation serves individuals, families and communities affected by epilepsy and seizures by raising awareness of the common yet little-known condition SUDEP (Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy), by providing support and equipment for prevention of this occurrence, and by creating a safe space and raising awareness within the greater community.

We are currently co-located with the Recreation Center, on the hill behind the high school. We are a community-gathering place where seniors laugh and learn, find information and assistance, and focus on their complete health. We do over 100 activities each month, including our golf leagues, softball teams, theater trips, bridge clubs, and our Wellness Program. We are the largest transporter of seniors and those with disabilities in our county — we provide over 900 rides each month to medical appointments, grocery shopping, treatments, and social activities. We are volunteer run and member based.

The Chelsea Hutchison Foundation was founded in 2009 by Doug and Julie Hutchison after the sudden and unexpected death of their daughter Chelsea.

We are a community-gathering place. Seniors from in and around Castle Rock come together to meet each other, learn to know each other, and help each other. We value our ‘town within a town’ atmosphere. We are a place where people playwhether that is card games, or sports, or just talking or being together. We explore

the world together through a variety of education and informational offeringsfor instance, workshops, speakers, and trips. We provide information, referrals, and direct services. The Castle Rock Senior Center is a one-stop-shop for all kinds of information related to aging. We also coordinate a variety of direct services, including transportation, meals, and financial counseling (investment clubs, tax assistance, etc.) We are a place where seniors can celebrate their total well-being. We offer visiting nurses, health screenings, and other medical information. More importantly, we provide an environment that encourages seniors to be active, to stay mentally, physically, and socially engaged, to live lives of quality, meaning and dignity.

The Chelsea Hutchison Foundation grants comfort and hope to those affected by epilepsy through providing monitoring resources, vital information, and a safe haven for conversation and community. Our main goal is to raise awareness of SUDEP and to make a positive difference in the lives of individuals and families living with epilepsy. We raise funds to provide education about SUDEP and to provide seizure response dog grants and life-saving movement monitors that help to protect against SUDEP. We stay up-to-date on current trends in medical technology in order to be able to provide the most effective devices as they become available. We respect the value and quality of life of every person living with epilepsy/seizures. We are dedicated to providing opportunities that allow individuals and families greater independence, increased confi-

dence, ability to enjoy social environments, and community understanding. The Chelsea Hutchison Foundation directly serves individuals living with epilepsy — there are over 3 million currently in the United States and over 26 million worldwide — and their families. The safety and comfort of these individuals, as well as the awareness raised by the organization, also directly affects the community; peers, teachers, other families and the general public benefit from whole and healthy presence and contribution of the individual in community activities as well as from the knowledge that the individual is taking every step possible to safeguard their wellbeing . Since its founding in November of 2009, The Chelsea Hutchison Foundation has reached thousands of individuals with vital information concerning SUDEP, and has given 68 grants for seizure response dogs and placed over 250 monitors with families in need.

Children’s Advisory Network

Colorado Agricultural Leadership Foundation

www.childrensadvisorynetwork.com

www.thecalf.org

Mission: Children’s Advisory Network is working to help children of all income levels communicate their wants and needs in their daily lives through speech, language, and hippotherapy. Children’s Advisory Network began as a small non-profit working with children and their families by providing in-home and in-school therapies for speech and language challenges. The majority of our families are considered low income and receive health insurance coverage through Medicaid. As the organization grew, the Executive Director began to see the benefits of offering two other programs in addition to therapy. A school screening program (Wee Screen) and a therapeutic riding program (Wee Ride) were added to the mission of the organization. Through Wee Screen, Children’s Advisory Network is able to catch hearing, vision and speech concerns. By screening children from preschool through sixth grade we are able to refer these children for the proper intervention or therapy. During Wee Ride, hippotherapy, improves core muscle strength, muscle symmetry, balance, posture, flexibility, circulation, and coordination. The horse stimulates speech and language while decreasing sensory issues.

Have you ever experienced… • The sweet taste of a carrot pulled right out of the garden? • The warmth of a newly laid egg? • The smell of fresh cut hay? • Jubilation after winning a ribbon at the county fair? • Honey straight from the hive? • How soft your hands are after petting a lamb?

In the last year, need continues to increase as government funding decreases, our client base has doubled, our Wee Ride Program is more popular than ever and our volunteer base has almost doubled. To continue to meet ever growing needs of the program, we ask you to please consider giving to Children’s Advisory Network on Colorado Gives Day. Not only will you be helping an organization, you’ll be helping our future leaders be the best they can be!

The truth is most of us are at least a generation removed from these farm or ranch experiences. Through CALF’s educational programs, community projects and special events, you and thousands in our community can discover how and where our food is produced. Whether you are a gardener seeking a quiet, country haven, a 4-H or FFA family without a ranch who wishes to raise livestock, or a committed volunteer, the opportunities to experience agriculture abound at CALF’s 133-acre Lowell Ranch. This year, more than 2,600 area elementary school students (up 58 percent

from last year) dug into soil with their bare hands, buzzed like bees, made ice cream, and saw our livestock close-up all while learning about the importance of agriculture in their everyday life. Our students discover the tastes, sounds, and smells of AGRICULTURE! “CALF’s Lowell Ranch has always been one of the most enriching, age appropriate fieldtrips for our first graders! We always look forward to all the wonderful and engaging learning experiences! CALF is truly a Douglas County treasure!” Cynthia Bledsoe, first grade teacher. More than 8,000 people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities come to the ranch to participate in CALF programs or community events annually. In addition, CALF is blessed by over 200 volunteers who help at the ranch to ensure the success of our programs. CALF invites YOU to experience agriculture! Please visit our website to learn more. We hope you will consider donating to CALF this season of giving and make us part of your future planned giving portfolio.

“Most of us living in Douglas County today are “newcomers” enjoying the fruits of pioneers who began the development of our communities. Now that we’ve arrived, it’s up to us to help guide the direction of our beautiful county, so that’s why I support the Douglas County Community Foundation” — Carole Murray, State Rep. Douglas County is a unique place, with strong, vibrant and diverse communities that make it a wonderful place to live. There is a long legacy of philanthropy including Phillip S. Miller, Tweet Kimble and the Highlands Ranch Mansion, each of these gifts has preserved and enhanced our lives. The Douglas County Community Foundation (DCCF) began in 2000 to provide a vehicle for individuals, families and business to maximize their philanthropic resources. We believe than anyone can make a difference and that collaborative action amplifies and extends positive influence. We strive to develop philanthropists of all ages and levels of income, educating and inspiring involvement. Some people choose to remember DCCF in their will, other families create

a donor advised fund that maximizes tax benefits, while involving and teaching their own families about charitable giving. The Foundation provides services to philanthropists that simplify the challenges of charitable giving. Many people have great ideas for how their community could be strengthened, but they are unsure how to get that idea off the ground. We provide everything you may need — guidance, ongoing management and administration — to turn your idea into a success. Qualifying funds may benefit from tax exempt status in collecting donations from others.

In 1990, a group of community leaders founded the Douglas County Educational Foundation (DCEF). These leaders realized how important it is to support our schools. Twenty-five years later this support has grown; our organization was recently named one of the Top 25 Educational Foundations in the nation. The DCEF is a 501(c)(3) non-profit which works with the private sector and other organizations to develop private resources to enrich education within the Douglas County School District.

The Douglas County Dames who Give a Damn! is a fund of DCCF, with a Vision of Empowering Women in Philanthropy. The Dames inspire the value of collective giving by meeting monthly to learn about non-profits in Douglas County and by making a small contribution to their cause and a pool to be distributed annually.

The Foundation provides grants to schools, teachers and classrooms and raises money for program initiatives such as Career Connect, field trips, scholarships, school supplies and outdoor education. For ten years, the DCEF has recognized outstanding teachers and staff at our annual Apple Awards. We support several scholarship funds, which provide student scholarships for higher education, and worked with partners this fall to provide over $52,000 in school supplies to more than 700 children and 250 teachers.

Our organization hosts several fundraising events such as golf tournaments, luncheons and galas to raise money for the benefit of our students. We also coordinate Community Nights with the major sports teams and attractions in the Denver Metro Area. These events raise money for schools and provide discounted tickets for members of the community.

To learn more about charitable giving, creating a fiscal sponsor fund or attending a Dames meeting, visit our website dccf.org.

The DCEF also supports more than 100 PTO’s and booster clubs across the District. Led by dedicated parent and community volunteers, DCEF Chapters

Douglas County Libraries Foundation

Douglas County Veterans Monument Foundation

www.douglascountylibraries.org/foundation

www.dcvmf.org

The nonprofit Douglas County Libraries Foundation (DCLF), founded in 1992, supports the programs and capital improvements of Douglas County Libraries (DCL), as well as events that enhance the mission and vision of DCL. This support, plus the generosity of the community, has enabled DCL to become known nationally as an innovative and progressive library system. In 2013, DCL launched No Leaf Unturned, a campaign to build new libraries in three underserved communities by 2016. Existing DCL facilities in Castle Pines, Lone Tree and Parker are plagued with inadequate parking and meeting space, and lack the flexibility to support the number, quality and diversity of programs the communities demand. Through sound fiscal management, increased efficiencies, and thoughtful reinvestment of library savings, DCL will be the main contributor to No Leaf Unturned. The project will also rely on generous municipal partnerships, and on corporate and private contributions to support special amenities and enhancements within the new buildings. Since its inception 85 years ago, DCL has enjoyed strong leadership, gener-

ous philanthropic and volunteer support, and an unwavering commitment to literacy and lifelong learning. Today, a growing population rely on library services to aid in improving quality of life. Examples of library services are many: literacy programs, small business help, summer reading programs, educational services for students and parents, and a local history research center. DCL also provides multiple opportunities every year to celebrate books and literature through Project: LIVE! author events, elementary school quiz competition Battle of the Books, and Page to Stage, which brings literature to life for schoolchildren countywide. Please remember the Douglas County Libraries Foundation on Colorado Gives Day, to help support libraries, literacy and lifelong learning. For more information, contact Amber DeBerry, DCL Associate Director of Community Relations, at adeberry@dclibraries.org or Elaine McCain, DCL Donor Relations Specialist, at emccain@dclibraries.org. Pictured above: Library enthusiasts celebrate in October, on the future site of the new Douglas County Libraries building in Parker.

The Douglas County Veterans Monument Foundation is a Colorado 501(c)3 non-profit formed to construct a monument and gathering place for all of our past, present and future veterans. While there will always be a need to maintain the award winning monument and plaza, in order to keep it a beautiful gathering place for our Veterans Day Tributes and for the community to come together and honor their friends and family members who have served, DCVMF is putting the needs of our veterans at the forefront. With over 20,000 veterans in Douglas County, our vision is to become a valuable resource to our very own hometown heroes; our veterans. We’ve established a Veterans Assistance Grant, for all eligible veterans to help those in need. While the government and other non-profits provide numerous resources, our grants are designed to help where there may be a gap or where the other programs may be falling short. Grants up to $500 may be requested in the following areas similar but not limited to the areas of hardship, quality of Life and transportation. We invite everyone to step up and take

Douglas Land Conservancy

Douglas/Elbert Task Force

There is nothing more lasting than open lands and once they are gone, they are gone forever.

Thirty years ago, several Castle Rock Churches joined forces to create a centralized location to send people in need. The founders wanted to encourage volunteerism by providing opportunities for their members to become directly involved with the needs of their neighbors. Today, we’ve grown to serve those in need in two counties, but the mission of the organization is reflected in everything we do: to endeavor to meet the immediate needs of residents of Douglas and Elbert counties who are in financial distress and/or at risk of becoming homeless, to help them work through troublesome times with dignity.

The Douglas Land Conservancy is a 501 (c) 3 non-partisan, non-profit land trust dedicated to the protection and conservation of the natural character, habitat, and open space of the central front range region of Colorado, including Douglas County and surrounding areas. Did you know that Douglas Land Conservancy conserves an average of 68 acres each month in Douglas County alone and more than 816 acres annually?! Since 1987 DLC has protected 22,038 acres from being developed, in perpetuity. These lands include agricultural lands, public recreation open space, scenic viewscapes, critical wildlife habitat, and wetlands. Of that 22,038 acres, 11,102 acres are open to the public and provide great trail and recreational experiences for all to enjoy. 10,936 acres are private lands that protect agricultural op-

erations, open space, scenic viewscapes, critical wildlife habitat, and wetlands from ever being developed. It is DLC’s job to ensure that these properties are protected in perpetuity by visiting each property annually. The hardest part of our job begins once a conservation easement is put in place protecting, the land.

People who are in crisis operate under incredible stress. Having a calm, warm, safe place to come and being greeted and immediately made welcome by smiling volunteers instantly diffuses some of that stress. Kids have an airy, quiet space with room for them to play safely. Having the opportunity to be listened to and to be heard by staff who not only understand, but who can often make an immediate difference is an incredible relief, particularly for clients with children. We go through many boxes of tissues, and hugs are given liberally at the D/ETF! Today, we meet the challenges that affect the newly unemployed, the unemployed and those on limited and fixed incomes with over 250 volunteers; our

Please consider donating to DCVMF directly from our website www.dcvmf.org and remember your donation stays right here in Douglas County. To apply for a veteran’s assistance grant or stay updated on how we’re helping our veterans please visit www.dcvmf.org.

Food Bank is our largest area of service. Each client receives one-on-one assistance as well as meaningful referrals to address long term problems. This past fiscal year (January-December, 2013), we served 14,740 people, and provided over $1.1 million in assistance. Our thrift store, Treasures on Park Street, funds a great part of the work we do, but it alone can’t meet the needs of the people in our community—the children, the disabled, the elderly—who turn to us for services. Your support puts food on the table, keeps the heat on, and clothes on the backs of those who are in financial crisis. This Colorado Gives Day, we hope you will consider our organization worthy of your support. Please visit our website at www.detaskforce.org for more information about our services, hours of operation, and special events like the Turkey Rock Trot on Thanksgiving morning, or call us at 303688-1114.

“If the Bald Eagle becomes extinct, will it still be our national symbol?” — 4th grade student

We are a Douglas County-based organization that mobilizes local residents to think and act globally. Frontier Labourers for Christ (FLC) serves minority and marginalized tribal people groups throughout Thailand, Burma, and other countries in Southeast Asia. We are an indigenous ministry founded in 1979, who’s leaders come from the same people we serve. We are an ECFA accredited organization. The people we serve come from small and distinct agrarian hill-dwelling populations, live in villages without basic infrastructure, and hold on to their unique cultures while integrating into their country’s larger society. Many tribal people groups live in isolation, deal with ethnic warfare, religious persecution, statelessness, and lack of access to education and health care. FLC’s vision is to connect with a majority of the tribal people groups throughout Southeast Asia. We fulfill our purpose using a wholeperson approach in three key areas: Outreach, Education, and Development. 1. Outreach is sharing the transformative message of life in Christ. 2. Education opens doors of opportunity for: • Community leaders from Burma with

advanced medical training; • Children from non-served Thai villages with elementary, secondary, and advanced schooling; • Low-income workers with English language training to further their job prospects; • Other ministries to rent our highquality training center to advance their visions. 3. Development work empowers people with: • Agriculture projects to raise animals and grow crops for improved self-sufficiency; • Clean water projects in remote villages for improved health; and • Building projects to improve communities. Give to FLC, a Douglas County nonprofit and make a life-changing impact for people on the other side of the globe.

ment funds. We support the birds with a dedicated volunteer base, a small staff and generous contributions of individuals, money raised at public events and some grants.

By the time these magnificent nonreleasable raptors come to live at HawkQuest, their physical injuries and/or the impact humans have had on them are permanent and not reversible. These birds will never get better and would never be able to survive in the wild. HawkQuest is the last stop in their lives, and we are committed to providing the best possible life for the birds, respecting their role in the environment, their beauty and their wild nature.

During 2013, HawkQuest presented at over 600 events, bringing the public close-up views of the birds, educating about the species, the environment and the interaction of raptors with all living things. We especially work to keep costs low for students by bringing the birds directly into the schools so student travel is not required. Our interactive approach makes the HawkQuest educational programs memorable, meaningful and fun while also conveying the importance of respect for our land and encouraging the stewardship of all living things.

Caring for over 3 dozen birds of prey is a long-term commitment requiring food, shelter and medical care. A Bald Eagle can live over 50 years; a Great Horned Owl can live 25. We feed the birds a natural diet at a daily cost of over $85.00. The government trusts us to provide for these raptors, but we receive no govern-

The foundation accomplishes this by creating a community of donors and raising private funds for various parks and recreation projects that otherwise would not be funded. Thanks to donors, the Highlands Ranch Park and Recreation Foundation has raised more than $600,000 for projects including: • Youth sports and recreation program scholarships • Civic Green Park • Highlands Ranch Mansion • Highlands Ranch Veterans Monument • Outdoor pickleball courts • Senior activities These parks, facilities and programs

are enjoyed and used by thousands of visitors every year. They are open to everyone and provide opportunities to pursue an active, healthy lifestyle and appreciate the natural beauty of the community. The Foundation is governed by a board of appointed trustees who serve as volunteers, which allows donations to go directly to projects. Trustees represent a diverse cross section of the community including business owners, corporate executives and citizens who care about the quality of life for Highlands Ranch residents.

Mesa Verde Foundation

Project ReCycle

www.mesaverdefoundation.org

www.projectrecycle.org

Mesa Verde Foundation, established in 1997, is a philanthropic partner of Mesa Verde National Park and provides financial resources to support the park in protecting its cultural, natural, and wilderness values. The foundation seeks funding for preservation and other projects within the park in order to promote an understanding and appreciation for this unique national treasure, right here in Colorado. Located in the Four Corners area of southwest Colorado, Mesa Verde is best known for its spectacular and remarkably well-preserved cliff dwellings. With over 4,000 archeological sites, including pueblos, kivas and 600 cliff dwellings, the park offers an incredible view into the lives of Ancestral Puebloan Indians who inhabited the area for more than 700 years, beginning about 550 A.D. Mesa Verde is the largest and most significant archeological preserve in the United States, and is one of the twelve original World Heritage Sites named by UNESCO in 1978. The park was established in 1906 when President Theodore Roosevelt proclaimed Mesa Verde would be the first national park to “preserve the works of man.”

Mesa Verde Foundation was instrumental in the funding and development of the new Visitor and Research Center at the park’s entrance, which opened last year. It also helped the park re-establish its historic Horse Patrol program through the purchase of horses and the construction of new barn and corral facilities. The foundation presently is working with the park to help fund a number of projects, including: • A preservation and stabilization project at the park’s iconic Cliff Palace. This is one of just eleven National Park Foundation “Legacy” projects nationwide. • The redevelopment of an old road cut into the Mesa View Trail, which will be the park’s FIRST fully accessible trail. • A Native American Internship Program to provide relevant training and experience for members of the 24 affiliated tribes. • Visit The Wildlife Experience on Lincoln Avenue through January 4, 2015 for the 2nd Annual Rims to Ruins exhibition, featuring 29 of America’s finest Western artists.

Project ReCycle’s original intent was to provide smiles to children all over the state by donating a bicycle. That has not changed. The first run at this venture led to the creation of a program that would not only guarantee smiles but also influence children’s academic behavior in a positive manner. As part of the Dream Bike Program, children, during their academic year, are encouraged to earn a bike by improving in 3 areas; Respect, Attendance and Academic Growth. Likewise, the children displacement issue is addressed. In late 2012 Project ReCycle merged with a local Castle Rock nonprofit that ran a very successful Christmas event called Bikes for Tykes Colorado. That event was the inspiration for a second program. The original Bikes for Tykes event became a year round program that identifies children living in foster homes or displaced homes. Project ReCycle works with multiple agencies to provide stability for children. The gifted bicycle becomes a constant in a life of change. In order to fulfill the bike requests from the Dream Bike and Bikes for Tykes programs, the Recycle your Bicycle program was created. Project

ReCycle collects bicycles from participating locations on a weekly basis. Bikes are brought back to the repair shop and inspected. If a bike cannot be fixed for reuse, it is dismantled. Each part is inspected from the dismantled bikes for future use. Project ReCycle makes every attempt to use every working part from the dismantled bikes and all remaining parts are then recycled.

SkyView Academy (SVA) is a preschool through 12th grade public charter school in Highlands Ranch. The school offers a research-based, content-rich liberal arts program with a commitment to foreign language studies, character education and community service with a focus on the Core Knowledge curriculum in PK-8 and the Classical education with an emphasis on college prep in the high school program. Since its inception in 2010 and the only PK-12 school in Douglas County, SkyView has quickly built a solid reputation as a high performing school that values life-long learning and building honorable leaders. The school currently serves over 1,350 students. As a result of our rapid growth and influx in students the SkyView Academy Foundation (SVF) raises funds to assist

the school in meeting the needs of our students in areas like technology, student leadership opportunities and ongoing professional development for our teachers. In addition, the SVF puts 10% of its donations aside in a scholarship fund to aid our students who are in need. Unlike a traditional neighborhood school, which pays for its facility from taxpayer approved bonds, SVA operations 100 percent of the school from per-pupil revenue, which includes facility payments. The SkyView Foundation hopes that you as a potential donor recognize the value we provide our community and others. The outstanding education provided to our students based on our mission and vision will continue to thrive with your support. We encourage you to learn more about us at http://www.skyviewacademy. k12.co.us.

The mission of Southeast Community Outreach (SECOR) is to provide food and financial assistance to over 7,000 families per year in the Denver Metro area by FILLING THE GAP, FOSTERING SELFSUFFICIENCY, and RESTORING HOPE AND FAITH. DID YOU KNOW… • SECOR’s service area includes 42 zip codes across four counties: Arapahoe, Douglas, Elbert and Jefferson (about 500,000 citizens) • Within our service area there are over 76,000 people in need

SECOR provides a safety net with critical emergency assistance to prevent hunger and homelessness.

• SECOR’s Christmas Outreach program provided gifts for over 3,000 children last year

We have several programs that extend beyond our food bank. Our Food for Thought program provides weekend food for children and families that rely on Douglas County School’s free/reduced lunch program during the week. Our Financial Assistance program provides temporary assistance for utility and housing costs for individuals threatened with losing service or possible eviction. Our Christmas Outreach program provides gifts for over 3,000 children and 1,100+ families at Christmas.

SECOR provides temporary assistance providing one pathway for recipients to succeed long term and without dependence on assistance from charitable or government agencies. As unemployed, underemployed and low-income residents within the greater Denver metro area struggle to find a job that will support their families,

For more information, please contact Jamie Maestas, Development Director for SECOR (720) 842-5621 or email jamie@ secor.info

• 1 in 4 children in Douglas County qualify for free or reduced school meal programs • SECOR currently provides services for over 7,000 families per year • SECOR’s Food for Thought program provides weekend meals for over 150 students in Douglas County Schools

We hope that your will consider partnering with us on Colorado Gives Day, Tuesday, December 9, 2014 to help us further meet the need in our community.

Today Spencer continues to design and run programs that are designed to surround the child with support and bring

joy back into their life, letting the patient concentrate on healing. Like their Real Life Resource Blog designed to support, encourage, and help patients and their families with a tip every day.

Wellspring Community is a faithbased non-profit organization creating a work and residential community where adults with special needs can live full, productive and satisfying lives. We currently offer three programs: • Our Work and Enrichment Program is offered Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Our participants experience meaningful work in our Best Buddies Bakery, our ceramics & crafts workshop and packaging & assembly workshop as well as our community garden. They also enjoy a variety of educational and enrichment classes, including such things as sign language, woodworking, dance, and much more. The cornerstone of our program is education. We believe that every person, regardless of ability, when provided the necessary support and guidance, can learn and make a valuable contribution to our community. • Our Wellspring Wonders Choir oﬀers our friends the unique opportunity to make music together. Under the direction of a professional vocal coach, choir members learn voice, breathing and rhythm exercises and enjoy the

thrill of performing before audiences. • Club 21, our social and recreation program, gives adults with special needs the chance to enjoy a sense of independence and a weekend evening out with peers in a safe and supervised setting. Activities include game nights, hobby nights, dances and much more. Our long term goal is to establish a retail bakery and cafe, greenhouses, and other business enterprises in the Castle Rock community where our Wellspring friends can enjoy meaningful work and on-going education. Plans also include several group homes where our folks can live together as family when their parents and caregivers can no longer provide their care. Your financial support will help to advance this life-giving mission. For more information, check out our website: www.wearewellspring.org or call 303-660-1935.

Mall stores betting on Dems Turkey Day shoppers Continued from Page 12

About 30 percent of Park Meadows retailers to open on Thanksgiving By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com Controversial as Thanksgiving Day shopping may be, some retailers based at the consumer-friendly Park Meadows shopping center are betting consumers will gobble up holiday sales. About 30 percent of the 160 stores at Lone Tree’s Park Meadows mall will open at 6 p.m. Nov. 27. Dick’s Sporting Goods and JC Penney will open at 5 p.m. While some stores will stay open all night, most that open at 6 p.m. will close at midnight, and then re-open at 6 a.m. for Black Friday. About two-thirds of the mall’s retailers will participate in the traditional early Nov. 28 opening, general manager Pamela Schenck Kelly said. The Black Friday celebration includes a free pancake breakfast in the Dining Hall from

6 to 8 a.m., a KOSI-FM live radio broadcast and other entertainment. Stores that don’t open Thanksgiving Day or at 6 a.m. won’t face any criticism from mall management, Kelly said. Because Thanksgiving is a legal holiday, retailers aren’t subject to the usual lease requirement of operating when the rest of the mall is open. “I don’t require any store to open at all until 8 a.m. on Black Friday,” Kelly said. “They can make that choice — if they do not wish to participate in the Thanksgiving or extreme early 6 a.m. opening — on their own.” According to the National Retail Federation, 44.8 million people shopped on Thanksgiving Day 2013, up 27 percent from 2012. More than twice as many visited stores on Black Friday, and the average shopper spent $407 over the four-day 2013 Thanksgiving weekend. The National Retail Federation predicts happy holidays for stores, based on a low unemployment rate that typically translates into confident consumers. The federation forecasts a 4.1 seasonal spending increase in 2014 from 2013. If that Christmas wish comes true, it would be the largest increase since 2011.

“She knows how to work across the aisle and she knows how to build a coalition,” said Rep. Daniel Kagan of Cherry Hills Village, who nominated Duran for the post. Duran beat out current Majority Leader Dan Pabon of Denver. Pabon was widely considered to be a candidate for House speaker as well. Instead, he threw his support behind Hullinghorst. After losing the majority leader election, Pabon told Duran, “You’ve got my 100 percent support.” Rep. Dominick Moreno of Commerce City will serve as Duran’s assistant majority leader after beating out Denver Rep. Beth

McCann for the post. Moreno was first elected to the House in 2012 and has the least amount of experience among members of the new leadership team. Moreno said that he has always dismissed talk of him not having enough experience in any endeavor he has undertaken. “I wouldn’t be here standing before you today if I hadn’t proved them wrong,” he said. Rep. Sue Ryden of Aurora will serve as House majority whip, a position charged with counting and rounding up votes. Rep. Brittany Pettersen of Lakewood will serve as assistant whip. Rep. Angela Williams of Denver was elected Democratic caucus chairperson. Rep. Mike Foote of Lafayette was the only non-minority or non-female elected to a leadership post. He will serve as assistant caucus chairperson.

Glamour brand gets its due in Denver By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com Who knew there was a gold necklace shaped like the articulated bodies of a pair of crocodiles? It was created by Cartier for Mexican film star Maria Felix, meticulously crafted in gold with diamonds, emeralds and rubies. It sometimes was worn and, at other times, placed on a table as a sculpture. It will be among the 250 treasures that make up “Brilliant: Cartier in the 20th Century,” open at the Denver Art Museum (and not scheduled to be shown elsewhere) through March 15, 2015. Margaret Young Sanchez, who serves as Frederick and Jan Mayer Curator of PreColumbian Art at the DAM, is curator for this exhibit. She has a longstanding interest in jewelry and decorative arts, having gained a familiarity with gold work in her pre-Columbian studies. DAM director Christoph Heinrich comments, in an introduction to the beautiful catalog published to accompany “Brilliant,” that Colorado has a connection to Cartier — Evelyn Walsh McLean was a Cartier customer for decades, beginning with the 1908 choice of the Star of the East Diamond as a wedding gift from

This set of three clip broches worn by HSH Princess Grace of Monaco are Cartier Paris 1955. Made of Platinum, brilliant and baguette-cut diamonds, these three cabochon rubies check in at approximately 45 carats in total and are part of Palais Princier de Monaco’s collection.

On a return trip in 1912, she bought the legendary blue Hope Diamond. She and many others among the world’s wealthy were regular customers for the spectacularly designed and crafted jewelry, watches, clocks and smoking accessories. The show has seven thematically organized sections that cover the years 1900 to 1975. Cartier’s Heritage Department assisted Young-Sanchez, as did international jewelry specialists, in organizing the exhibit. Divisions begin with “Aristocracy and Aspiration,” after Louis Cartier joined the firm in 1898 and younger Cartier sons Pierre and Jacques brought their energy, through 1918. Paris was the center of a cosmopolitan society whose members could afford the elaborate Cartier jewels and decorative objects. “The New Outlook” includes Art Deco design 1918 to 1939. “Foreign Fascination” covers a similar period but looks to Egypt, India, Islam and East and Southeast Asia for both design inspirations and potential customers. “The Art of Smoking” section of the book begins with a photo of actress Marlene Dietrich in top hat and tails, smoking — a glamorous custom that required bejeweled cigarette cases, cigarette holders, cigar cutters, lighters and more. Here, objects for men, “The Masculine

View,” entered the scene, with elegant desk sets, pocket and wrist watches, cuff links, pocket knives, fountain pens, a travel bar set and elaborate decorative clocks for desks, including some that are commemorative gifts. “The Age of Glamour” recognizes newly liberated attitude among some women, with more bright colors in the gems and daring designs worn by movie stars as well as the rich and royal customers. “Icons of Style” is the final section, covering distinctive personalities such as Marjorie Merriweather Post, Barbara Hutton, the Duchess of Windsor, actress Maria Felix, actress Elizabeth Taylor and Princess Grace of Monaco. It includes lighter scale design, although glamorous in the extreme. This exhibit is a coordinated look at an era that had as many individual stories as overlapping conflicts. It’s an opportunity to enter another world for a few hours.

When Miki Hashimoto closed Japon, an 18-year fixture in Wash Park, it was a shock to our sushi systems. But the venerable owner, who was lured to the United States 26 years ago at age 15 by the movie “American Graffiti,” promised to return to Denver’s dining scene. And he’s done just that with the recent opening of Tokio, a 60-seat ramen, binchotan grill and sushi spot in the burgeoning Prospect neighborhood at 2907 Huron St. “Dining at Tokio is the most authentic Japanese experience one can have in Denver, and we are very excited to bring the unique flavor of real Japanese ramen, binchotan grilling and imported Hakushika sake and spirits to the Prospect neighborhood,” Hashimoto sad. “Tokio transports diners to a small house in Japan where only the freshest, highest quality delicacies are served, and we know that our patrons will taste the difference.” During the media menu tasting on Nov. 12, Hashimoto and his crew prepared an array of goodies including a spicy B&B roll, vegetarian ramen (with house made noodles) bacon-wrapped asparagus, shumai (dumplings) and yakitori chicken skewers from the binchotan (Japanese charcoal) grill. Each course was paired with sake samplers — four tumblers of sake neatly served on a plate bearing each drink’s name. Tokio’s decor is industrial minimalistic, designed by Kanji Ueki, who also helped design the original Apple retail stores. Downstairs is the hopping and happening space with sushi bar seating and a long community table made from a piece of ash that Hashimoto found in Longmont. Upstairs is a more romantic and intimate surrounding with a sake bar. Parking is available in the lot behind the restaurant, and reservations can be made at www.mytokio.com or by calling 720-6392911.

Ah, that DIA dining

Thrillist.com, the website that brings you all the lists you never knew you needed to know, has compiled “Every important American airport ranked by its food/drink.” Coming in at a respectable No. 8 — out of 72 — is Denver International Airport. Here’s how Thrillist made its picks: “We did it like this: First, we broke down every essential airport by the number of planes that fly in, plus region so every state was included. Then we looked up every single restaurant and bar available at each spot, and broke the airports down into four tiers. Once we had the tiers, we went deeper and figured out our proper rankings, paying particular attention to two factors: a) whether the options were unique and illustrative of the foods of that region, and b) the quantity of quality places available. But we tried to weigh the first factor higher, so smaller airports with more local food got more credit than massive places with 85 chains.” About DIA, Thrillist said, “Considering you’re legally allowed to get Rocky Mountain high (though not at the airport), this place is a delight, and not just because Steve’s Snappin’ Dogs hot dogs are `delivered directly from New Jersey.’ They’ve also got a Boulder Beer Taphouse, a New Belgium Hub, Ben & Jerry’s, an outpost of Denver’s incredible Root Down, some sort of Russian coffee place, and Elway’s, Parker continues on Page 29

Castle Rock artist gives works to state office Carr building graced by dozens of pieces By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com Recently, employees in Colorado Attorney General’s Office were invited to put out the word to artists they knew. The department’s walls on several floors of the beautiful new Ralph L. Carr Colorado Judicial Center in Denver would benefit from the addition of some original art, and donations were sought. Terri Connell, as assistant in that office, said the resulting collection is impressive.

Painter Ed McCarthy Allen of Castle Rock said his daughter-in-law told him about the opportunity and he submitted several paintings, which are now hanging there. Allen says there are about 90 paintings, spread out among several floors. Allen grew up in Chicago, he said, and spent lots of time in the galleries of the Chicago Art Institute as he matured. Throughout his life, he has visited museums and looked at art, but he just started painting in 2002, after he retired and moved with his wife to Colorado in 2000. (He first spent a year refinishing the basement walkout area, where he now enjoys a home studio.) Before that time, he was involved in an academic career. He taught at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, N.Y., and was assis-

tant dean at the University of Illinois. He spent time in Austria on a Fulbright Fellowship and in Germany. In 2002, he attended his first class at the Art Students League of Denver and met Mark Thompson, a contemporary realist whose paintings especially appealed to him. Thompson is described on his website as “one of a handful of artists in the U.S. who have revived the Renaissance art of egg tempera painting,” and he teaches classes in the technique at ASLD. Egg tempera involves mixing colored pigments with water and a soluble binding medium (egg yolk), and it is an ancient and very permanent method, found on the Egyptian sarcophagi and in Renaissance paintings. When oil paint was developed, tempera be-

came less popular, because it is challenging to work with. Allen says he has painted with oil paints as well, but likes using egg tempera because of the fine details and clear colors one can achieve, using a small brush. He is currently a member of the Art Students League of Denver, the Watercolor Society of America, the Society of Egg Tempera Painters and Parker Art Guild, and he shows his work in Colorado and New Mexico galleries, including the Santa Fe Fine Art Brokerage and the Art of Life Gallery in Denver. He also exhibits at the annual Summer Art Market, held in June by the Art Students League, and at the annual August show held in a park by the Parker Art Guild.

`Red Ranger’ is colorful tale

“After the Beds” is a flip book of illustrations by Stacey Steers. Published in 2009, it is in the Denver Art Museum collection. Photo by Bud Shark

Aurora Fox offers musical for holidays By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com New holiday fare offers a pleasing alternative to “A Christmas Carol” and “Miracle on 34th St.” this season. “Red Ranger Came Calling” plays Nov. 28 to Dec. 20 at the Aurora Fox — a musical story for kids and grown-ups alike. This will be the second place in the nation to produce this play, according to 11-year-old Aidan Flaugh, who plays Red. It was originally developed by Book-It Theatre in Seattle, which creates plays from established books, using the text and narrative. In this case, it drew from cartoonist Berkeley Breathed’s “Red Ranger Came Calling: A Guaranteed True Christmas Story,” based on a story about Breathed’s father. It’s 1939. There’s a boy everyone calls Red, due to his obsession with Buck Tweed, Red Ranger from Mars and Protector of Grateful Princesses. Director Charles Packard sent out a note about the casting and his decision to cast a child in the lead: the aforementioned Aidan, a Littleton resident, with young Sean Wilson as understudy. “They are fully competent, talented performers and are age-appropriate. They will keep you and your kids fully empathetic and engaged in the huge conflicts of the show …” Breathed’s original artwork inspires the sets and costumes and each character tells his own story in Book-it Theatre style Red’s parents send the 9-year-old to stay with his Aunt Vy one Christmas during the Depression — on Vashon Island, Washington, where it rains all the time. His only buddy is Amelia, Aunt Vy’s dog. His kind aunt tries to cheer him up by making him a Red Ranger shirt from a worn pajama top, adding to his depression. “Who ever heard of spending Christmas in the rain?” he grumps. He goes out and meets an old man with pointed ears — an elf? He directs Red to see another old man, a nearby lighthouse keeper named Saunder Clos. Could he be Santa Claus? Red desperately wants for Christmas a Buck Tweed Two Speed Crime Stopper Star

Aidan Flaugh, 11, of Littleton, plays the lead in “Red Ranger Came Calling” at the Aurora Fox. Courtesy photo

IF YOU GO “Red Ranger Came Calling” plays at the Aurora Fox, 9900 E. Colfax Ave., Aurora, from Nov. 28-Dec. 21. Performances: 7:30 p.m. Fridays, Saturdays; 2 p.m. Sundays. Tickets: $28-$31 adults; $24 students, seniors; $14 children under 12. Call 303739-1970 or visit aurorafox.org.

Hopper Bicycle, but knows no one in his family has money for it. He visits Saunder Clos and there’s a magical scene. Red’s Dream Ballet ensues. Aurora Fox director Charlie Packard found this play and is directing it at the Aurora Fox. He and dramaturg Brenda Cook Ritenour met with Book-it Theatre’s artistic director, Myra Platt, to learn their specific acting style, which leaves the narrative in place as each character tells the story from his or her personal viewpoint. Aidan is the son of musicians, who taught him to sing, he said. His father, Keegan Flaugh, has played in “The Sound of Music” and “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” at Town Hall Arts Center and in “Mack and Mabel” at Vintage Theatre. Aidan says he has performed in 10-12 shows and is impressed with how professional this production is. Rehearsals are every night but Thursday. The idea that it’s only been done in Seattle previously pleases him. Also in the cast: his 9-year-old sister Caitlin as an elf. Aidan attends Littleton Prep, where he sings in the choir He plays soccer and “kind of” plays baseball, when there’s time, plays piano and is learning guitar. He loves to read. Watch for his name in lights some day.

Shark leaves prints all over art world Lyons man gives lecture in Denver museum series By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe @coloradocommunitymedia.com “I like artists with an iconoclastic approach to their work — I’m drawn to the artist whose work I find unusual,” Bud Shark said in answer to an audience question as he ended a session in the Denver Art Museum’s Logan Lecture series. He said he had worked with more than 160 artists — and they tend to come back for more work. Shark founded the nationally recognized Shark’s Ink in 1976 in Boulder after completing a bachelor’s degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a master’s degree from the University of New Mexico, where he worked with Tamarind Institute of Art, known for its printmaking. He said he learned about lithographs first while on a Christmas break from Madison and his course was set from then on. Now established in Lyons (he fortunately was not washed away by last year’s flooding) he is constantly publishing technically innovative prints in an edition sized by the artists’ reputation, which Sharks Ink sells to private collectors and museums. He has been in the business for 38 years, printing lithographs, monotypes, woodblocks and other relief prints for well-known artists from across the nation who seek to produce a different sort of image. Shark’s Ink has an apartment at the print

shop where visiting artists can stay while working with Shark. They stay 10 days to two weeks, he said — praising his wife Barbara’s cooking. They arrive with suitcases filled with a variety of items. Shark showed slides of his work with Enrique Chagoya, a California-based, Mexicoborn social satirist, who arrives with magazines and comic books as a starting point. His work has been exhibited in Denver. They were using paper made from mulberry bark, such as the Maya might have used, Shark said. Usually, prints are two-dimensional and many techniques and various media are used, but for Red Grooms, he created a three-dimensional lithograph. In the 1980s when Grooms was very successful, Shark’s Ink printed an edition of 75, which sold for $10,000 each, he said. The artist doesn’t pay Shark’s, he said. The studio’s income is from the sale of prints in its inventory. Prints published by Shark’s Ink are found at New York’s Museum of Modern Art; New York’s Whitney Museum of American Art; Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York; Yale University Art Gallery, New Haven, Conn.; and the Library of Congress, Hirshhorn Museum and Smithsonian Institution in Washington. Among the artists who have worked with Shark’s Ink is Stacey Steers of Boulder, who creates award-wining handmade animated films, nationally recognized for their quality. Her film “Night Hunter,” includes 4,000 collages, focusing on early actress Lillian Gish in a haunting role. Shark continues on Page 31

Volleyball coach hangs it up T.R. Ellis spent half of her 36 years with Wolverines, won state twice By Jim Benton

jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com After coaching her last volleyball match Nov. 8 at the state tournament, T.R. Ellis is looking forward to the challenges of retirement. Ellis coached 36 seasons starting in Texas and continuing at Olathe, Douglas County and Chaparral. She told her Wolverine players prior to the season that the 2014 campaign would be her last as a coach after 18 years at the school. Her final match on the Chaparral sidelines was a win over Fairview in state tournament pool play. “I know I made the right decision but I’ll be really sad,” said Ellis “I really, really like Chaparral and not just my volleyball players. I really liked the kids at Chaparral, the colleagues that I worked with and the administration. “I will definitely miss being with all those good people. But, I’m also ready not to work so hard. I’ll be traveling with my husband and I need to improve my golf game. I have step grandchildren and my son now lives in Parker and they are trying to start their family so I’m looking forward to being an awesome grandma and just enjoy traveling with my husband.” Ellis, 59, is the only volleyball coach in Chaparral history and has developed a formidable program that helped produced a spirited student section that attended home volleyball matches. “I guess just getting to finish at Chaparral High School where athletics is valued not only by the students but also the administration and the players was memorable,” confessed Ellis. “We’ve had such great support and because of that we’ve had a lot of success. Chaparral has had a lot of amazing players, great parents, great coaches … all of that together has allowed us to have such a successful volleyball program. “For me personally I just really enjoyed coaching the girls. Winning is fun but it’s just as enjoyable when the players keep coming back year after year. They helped me run my camps in the summer and they text me when they win a national championship in college. It’s just really unique to have continued rela-

Chaparral’s T.R. Ellis has retired after 36 years of coaching volleyball, including heading up the Wolverine program for all 18 years of its existence. Photo by Kevin Keyser tionships like that with your athletes. That’s really something special. When you had players who are now coaching and they tell you they try to always do the right thing or they tell you they want to treat their athletes like I treated them because they felt that was the right way to do it.” Ellis’ Wolverine teams compiled a remarkable four-season run between 2009 and 2012, compiling a 108-13 record and winning backto-back state championships in 2010 and 2011. Chaparral had a 56-match winning streak that was snapped in September 2012. “It was memorable,” said Ellis. “We had amazing success with the best player (Nicole Dalton) in the state two years in a row but along with that we also had players that really understood that it took everybody to win a volleyball game, it wasn’t just one person. It was special that the one person was appreciative of everybody on the team. “We were just so fortunate because the superstars we had were at the same time very

humble, very gracious and thankful to be blessed with their talent. They were great role models for all the athletes at the school that you can be the best in the state but act like this. That carried over into my program and all the programs at Chaparral. A lot of people wanted to be an athlete at Chaparral because they saw how valued they were and also how much fun it was for everybody.” Before Ellis took over at Chaparral she coached for seven seasons at Douglas County “I came to Douglas County in 1990,” recalled Ellis. “We had some success down there as well. Don McCall was the athletic director at the time and he has been associated with Douglas County forever. Don hired me to coach. … We won district championships there, went to regional tournaments a couple times but never made it to state. “When I went to Douglas County they hadn’t won very many volleyball games but by the time I left we were winning most all of them. This year of course they were super suc-

cessful. Valerie Elliott did a great job with that team. They had some amazing talent.” Ellis coached eight years at Olathe and couldn’t help but walk around with a little more swagger earlier this season. “I started at Olathe High School,” she said. “Earlier this year CHSAANow.com had the top 10 rankings come out and they talked about Chaparral breaking into the top 10 and it also said Douglas County had broken into the top 10 and on down it talked about 3A and Olathe breaking into the top 10. That was so cool that all three schools that I coached at were ranked in the top 10.” Ellis, a Castle Pines resident, may not take a gold watch into retirement but she will carry a lot of admiration with her. “She was one of the most respected coaches in all of Colorado,” said Ponderosa coach Rob Graham. “She’s the only coach that has been at Chaparral. She’s been a mentor, a friend and a confidant to many of the coaches in Colorado.”

Area girls among nation’s elite on pitch Local soccer players headed to Florida for Olympic development By Jim Benton

Cameron Bell, Coriane Dyke and Audrey Weiss are frequent fliers. All three are young elite soccer players who frequently travel to national training camps or tournaments with their club teams. Bell, Dyke and Weiss were in Phoenix Nov. 14-16 with their club teams for the Elite Club National League showdown and the three will all be heading to Baca Raton, Fla., for the U.S. Youth Soccer Olympic Development Program Girls Thanksgiving Interregional to be held Nov. 21-28. Nearly 300 elite players in the 1997-2000 age groups have been invited to Florida from the four U.S. youth soccer regions. The event consists of training sessions and matches in front of the U.S. soccer national staff and collegiate coaches to maximize the players’ exposure for selection to the next level of play. Bell, a sophomore at Legend High School, plays for the Colorado Storm and will be with the Region IV team in the 1999 age group. “I travel a whole bunch for my youth team,” she said. “I’m really excited to go to Florida. It’s really cool because you get to learn how other players play, you get to learn new coaching styles and when I go down there normally the coaches are college coaches so we’re able to learn how a real college team would practice. “Also when I go down to Florida I’m not playing my usual position. I normally play

outside mid and forward but in Florida I will be playing outside back so I’m kind of excited to mix it up a little bit.” Dyke plays club soccer for the Colorado Rush and is an eighth-grader at Cherry Hills Christian School in Highlands Ranch. She and Weiss will be with the Region IV 2000 age group team. “You get to play with different players and get to learn from different coaches and learn different styles,” said Dyke. “I’m looking forward to going to Florida.” Weiss, who also plays for the Colorado Rush, is an eighth-grader at Newton Middle School in Centennial. All three players believe they come back from camps like the Florida Thanksgiving event as better players. “Every training camp is really high intensity so when you come back you feel like you’ve grown as a player,” said Weiss. “It’s fun to bring back the things you have learned.” Bell agrees. “I definitely feel like I’m a better player when I return,” she said. “Every state kind of has their own style of play. Like California (players) attack more. I used to live in Tennessee and they are more possessive and pass the ball around. I feel like I’m a smarter player and more aware of what’s going on on the field.” Traveling to development camps is a good experience as long as players don’t get too rattled. “I feel like the coaches have new things to teach us and you learn things from the other players as well,” said Dyke. “You can help and bring that back to your team. It’s definitely a little nerve-wracking with all coaches there watching, I try my best to play the way I know how to play.”

Bruins bounce Raiders from playoffs Cherry Creek bests Regis 49-21 to move on to state semifinals By Tom Munds

tmunds @coloradocommunitymedia.com Cherry Creek turned three fumble recoveries into three touchdowns en route to a 49-21 rout of Regis Jesuit in a Class 5A quarterfinal tilt Nov. 14. “We knew coming in that Regis is a great football team and we had to play our best football to beat them,” Bruins coach Dave Logan said. “I feel it was very important after they scored on that long drive in the first quarter that we responded in the same manner to tie the score. We played hard and we have focused on creating turnovers all year. We did that tonight and it proved to be a big factor in the game.” The victory earns Cherry Creek a berth in the state semifinals against undefeated Ralston Valley. On paper, the two teams match up well. Ralston Valley comes in at 12-0, averaging 281 yards rushing, 133 yards passing and 43.5 points per game. The 9-3 Bruins average 227 yards rushing, 123 yards passing and 33.3 points per game. The game will be played at 7 p.m. Nov. 21 at the North Area Athletic Complex, 19500 W. 64th Parkway, Arvada. Despite the frigid weather on Nov. 14, a sizable crowd turned out to support both host Regis and Cherry Creek, and both teams gave fans something to cheer about early. Each team mounted a long, time-consuming touchdown drive that took up most of the first quarter. After receiving the opening kickoff, Regis used a 16-play, 80-yard drive to get in the end zone first. The drive culminated with quarterback Matt Houghtaling throwing a 7-yard touchdown pass t0 Alec Barnes. The Bruins responded with a mirror-image drive with DJ Luke running the ball for the final 2 yards for the touchdown to tie the score 7-7 at the end of the first quarter. The Raiders fumbled inside their own 30yard line on their next three possessions and Cherry Creek recovered all three fumbles and turned them into touchdowns.

Regis defender Donovan Doyle holds onto the jersey of Cherry Creek’s Milo Hall during a Nov. 14 Class 5A quarterfinal game. The tackle kept Hall from making a gain on the play, but the Bruin runner found the end zone twice during Cherry Creek’s 49-21 victory over the Raiders. Photo by Tom Munds Luke scored the first TD on a 4-yard run. Just over a minute later halfback Tyus Carter threw a 32-yard touchdown pass to Joseph Carter. And with five minutes left in the quarter Milo Hall scored on a 15-yard touchdown run. Henry Lyon booted all three extra points to put the Bruins ahead 28-7 advantage. Regis battled back, however, and, with less than a minute left in the half Barnes scored on a 2-yard run to make the score 28-14 at halftime. Cherry Creek’s defense kept the Raiders bottled up as the Bruins offense scored twice more in the third quarter. The first score came on Hall’s four-yard TD run. Later in the quarter, Caplis threw a 48-yard touchdown pass to Joseph Carter to make the score 42-14 going into the final period. In the final quarter, Luke scored his third touchdown of the night on a 5-yard run mid-

way through the period. But the Raiders didn’t quit as they battled hard and Gabe Holt scored on an 8-yard run with 2:09 left in the game. Regis coach Mark Nolan’s voice reflected a lot of emotion after the game as he said it was a tough night for the Raiders. “Mistakes hurt us and we just didn’t play well,” were his only comments. On the other side of the field, Logan praised the play of his team. “Our defense did a great job for us, plus we made things work for us when we got the ball,” he said. “It was a total team win. Everyone contributed for us.” This is the first time the Bruins have been in the state semifinals since 2008. Mullen, coached by Dave Logan, beat them that year. Logan is now the Bruins head coach. After the game, Bruin quarterback Joe Caplis had high praise for all his teammates.

“It was a great game tonight,” the senior said. “All the credit for our win goes to the linemen on both sides of the ball. They opened the lanes for our guys to run the ball and the defense was unreal and kept Regis in check. “A win always feels good but it feels particularly good tonight as we came into hostile territory and won a playoff game. We will enjoy this one tonight, have a big, warm pizza then get back to work preparing to play Ralston Valley.” The Bruins amassed some impressive statistics in the victory as Luke carried 16 times for 73 yards and three touchdowns and Hall added 18 carries for 150 yards and two touchdowns. Caplis completed 6-of-7 passes for 100 yards and one TD. Carter, who had four catches for 96 yards a touchdown pass, also threw the touchdown pass to Parker. Lyon kicked all seven extra points for the Bruins.

SALOME’S STARS FOR THE WEEK OF NOV 17, 2014

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 19) A long-sought workplace change could be happening soon. Consider reworking your ideas and preparing a presentation just in case. A personal relationship takes a new turn. TAURUS (Apr 20 to May 20) Your persuasiveness doesn’t really start to kick in until midweek. By then, you can count on having more supporters in your camp, including some you doubted would ever join you. GEMINI (May 21 to Jun 20) Your workload is still high, but -- good news! -- you should start to see daylight by the week’s end. Reserve the weekend for fun and games with friends and loved ones. You deserve it.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) Regardless of how frustrating things are, keep that “Crab” under control. A cutting comment you might think is apt right now will leave others hurting for a long time to come. LEO (Jul 23 to Aug 22) Be more sensitive to the emotions of loved ones who might feel left out while you’re stalking that new opportunity. Be sure to make it up to them this weekend. A nice surprise could be waiting. VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22)The gregarious Virgo rarely has a problem making new friends. But repairing frayed relationships doesn’t come easily. Still, if it’s what you want to do, you’ll find a way. Good luck. LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22) A misunderstanding with a partner or spouse needs to be worked out before it turns into something really nasty. Forget about your pride for now and make that first healing move. SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21) Communication dominates the week. Work out any misunderstandings with co-workers. Also get back in touch with old friends and those family members you rarely see. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21)As busy as your week is, make time for someone who feels shut out of your life. Your act of kindness could later prove to be more significant than you might have realized. CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19) Congratulations. Your busy workweek leads to some very satisfying results. Sports and sporting events are high on your weekend activities aspect. Enjoy them with family and friends. AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18) Your generosity of spirit reaches out once again to someone who needs reassurance. There might be problems, but keeping that line of communication open eventually pays off. PISCES (Feb 19 to Mar 20) You are among the truthseekers in the universe, so don’t be surprised to find yourself caught up in a new pursuit of facts to counter what you believe is an insidious exercise in lying. BORN THIS WEEK: You believe in loyalty and in keeping secrets. All things considered, you would probably make a perfect secret agent. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.
