Road detour proposals for project ASARCO site to get new life By Ashley Reimers
areimers@colorado communitymedia.com
During an Oct. 6 Westminster study session, city council directed staff to pursue alternative road detour options for the 72nd Avenue and Raleigh Bridge replacement project. Initially the project, which will replace the current box culvert structure with an actual bridge, would have caused full closure of 72nd Avenue. But after council discussion the city is finding new ways to construct the new bridge without a complete closure, which takes place just east of Stuart Street and just west of Bradburn Boulevard. “A number of businesses have raised concerns of the total closure of 72nd Avenue,” said city manager Brent McFall. “So what we have done is found some alternatives that would not cause a complete closure, just intermittent and temporary closures required at times.” The project is to being June 2015, and would last up to a year. The cost of the project is about $5 million plus an estimated $1.7 million of water and sewer system replacement work. About $1.8 million will come from federal funding

and what’s not funded by federal dollars will be funded by the city’s general capital improvement fund and the utility fund. Now that the city is pursuing an alternative road detour option, McFall said the cost of the project will go up about $500,000, which will be paid for by the city’s general fund contingency. “We have $1 million in the contingency which we try not to use,” McFall said. “We have not used any of it as of this year and I don’t anticipate anything else that would cause
us to go into that contingency so I think we would feel safe in saying those funds would be available for us to use for the added cost of the project.” During the study session councilor Alberto Garcia supported the idea of exploring other road detour options. “I’ve been hearing from a number of businesses and residents who are very fearful of how this would impact their businesses in that area,” he said. “I definitely think we need to reevaluate and go forward with other options.” The new bridge, along with

The 77.53-acre former smelting and refining site northwest of East 51st Avenue and Washington Street is poised to become a new light industrial and office development. The Adams County Board of Commissioners approved plans for the development for approximately 62.4 acres that lies within the county borders at its Oct. 28 meeting. The rest of the site is in County of Denver. “I think this is a great development,” said board Chair Charles “Chaz” Tedesco. “I think it will bring up that area and add businesses and jobs.” The development, which will be called Crossroads Commerce Park at Globeville, will breathe new life into the property that many know as Asarco (American Smelting and Refining Co.). According to county documents, “Refining operations began on the property in 1886 as the Holden Smelter which produced gold and silver. Asarco (American Smelting and Refining Company) bought the facility in 1901 and converted the plant to lead smelting. As a result of more than a century of refining and smelting operations at the Globe Plant, soil and groundwater both on and off the site were contaminated with heavy metals.” The property has since been cleaned up and prepped for development. The plans call for light industrial, warehouse, distribution, office and retail — no residential development will be permitted. No less than 20 percent of the site will be open space.
When it comes to choosing a production for his students, Andre Rodriguez doesn’t take the easy route. As director of the CenterStage Theatre Company, Westminster High School’s drama department, he finds musicals and plays that challenge students on a personal level. So a production of The Sound of Music would never do. “There is something about picking edgy material and trusting my students with that kind of material,” he said. “If we chose something conservative like The Sound of Music, nobody would come audition.” That wasn’t the case for this year’s production of Avenue Q: School Edition. Over 500 students registered for theater classes or chose to audition or participate in the musical, which is a about a young man, Princeton, who just graduated college and is struggling to find his purpose in life. The musical tackles heavy issues such as sexual identity and racism. “I chose this musical as a resume-builder for my students who choose to pursue theater after high school,” Rodriguez said. “I also chose it because it touches one some big themes like how to
IF YOU GO Avenue Q: School Edition 7 p.m. Nov. 13-15 at Westminster High School Tickets: general admission$8, reserved $10, www.seatyourself.biz/cstc accept each other and how some people use humor to deal with serious issues like homophobia and racism.” In a unique twist, Avenue Q: School Edition, which runs Nov. 13-15 at Westminster High School, also utilizes the art of puppetry to assist coming-of-age storytelling. Working with puppets hasn’t been an easy feat for students. Rodriguez admits it’s been tough for students to get the hang of acting with puppets. But he also applauds their efforts saying they “have risen to the occasion.” There are human characters and puppet characters who interact with humans — Sesame Streetstyle. The puppets are animated and voiced by the puppeteer. For senior Jamie Rodriguez, playing the lead role of Princeton, taking on a puppet means more than just building up muscle to support his other half. It means taking his acting skills to another level. “I’m not just acting for myself, I’m also acting for my puppet,” he said. “So I have to give him a personality as much as I can. That

Photo by Ashley Reimers way people aren’t only paying attention to me, but also the puppet. It’s really hard.” Earning the role of Princeton is Jamie’s first lead, but he’s had several supporting roles to prepare him for the spotlight. And while he’s learning puppetry, Jamie’s also connecting to his character in a big way. “I can relate to Princeton be-
cause I have similar struggles about figuring out what to do next in life, especially because I’m a senior,” he said. “I’m looking for a purpose too. Some people tell me to go to one college and other people say a different one. It can be tough to know who to listen to and who has the right word to follow — which is what Princeton is dealing with.”

With a little help, it’s a lot like home The door opens and a slight woman with a quick smile, round glasses, comfy gray sweats and short snowy hair pushes her walker into the hall. Four months ago, Mary Clancy, 89, was living in her Lakewood apartment. But she just couldn’t do it anymore — the cooking, the cleaning, the driving. So she gave her car to a delighted nephew and moved into one of the 111 rooms at the Libby Bortz Assisted Living Center in Littleton. “It’s great here,” she says, unhesitatingly, as she makes her way down the floral-carpeted hall to find the Scrabble game. “If you can’t be at home, this is the next best thing.” The words gladden Dawn Shepherd, who stands nearby, eyes sparkling. But then, she knows the secret to this place. The brick-and-stucco structure was built on a foundation of innovative stubbornness and passionate concern for the well-being of the older community who needed, not only a place to call home, but also one they could afford. “It’s a love thing,” Shepherd says. “There’s tons of love in this building.” The center, just off Main Street in downtown Littleton, opened its doors 20 years ago as one of the country’s first affordable assisted living facilities when Shepherd, now 68, was director of the Littleton Housing Authority. Back then, few assisted living centers existed — the concept was just becoming part of the senior landscape discussion. But what made this building particularly unique was its owner — a housing authority, an agency dedicated to providing housing for low-income families and individuals, one not usually in the business of assisted living. That meant the Libby Bortz center, which would help its residents with the daily care they needed, had to be affordable. To do that, the housing authority worked with a group of creative thinkers with experience in senior housing called The Raleigh Group and Kaiser Aerospace and Electronics, a now-defunct corporation and the tax credit partner that helped finance the project.
“The team just got so close,” Shepherd says. “It was really an amazing moment in time — everyone worked so hard toward an end goal.” The use of federal tax credits allowed the housing authority to save $200 a month per unit and ensure its affordability in perpetuity, Shepherd says. It also made the center one of the first — if not the first — in the country to be financed by tax credits. Today, a one-room apartment at Libby Bortz costs $1,784 a month, well below the national average for assisted living. That includes three meals a day, weekly housekeeping and laundry and medication supervision. The Genworth 2014 Cost of Care Survey, which has surveyed senior care services throughout the country for 11 years, found the national median monthly rate for assisted living was $3,500, an increase of 4.29 percent from 2009. Unforgivably, housing for seniors in this country — at a time in their lives when they should feel safe and comfortable — has instead become “a crushing burden.” The statement comes from SeniorLiving.org, a website dedicated to senior living and retirement, which reports that “finding affordable senior housing may be one of the biggest challenges facing seniors and their loved ones.” And the U.S. Small Business Development Center predicts a significant unmet demand for assisted living facilities by 2020 as the population between 65 and 84 grows by nearly 39 percent. So, where will we live? Most importantly, where can we afford to live with dignity? Shepherd pondered those questions long ago from her office in a subsidized senior apartment building in Littleton where

she watched her seniors, as they aged, require more help with daily living activities. “Their only choice was a nursing home,” she says, “and they didn’t need a nursing home.” Shepherd — who retired from the Littleton Housing Authority (now called South Metro Housing Options) in 2001, but soon took a job heading the housing authority in neighboring Englewood until retiring definitively a year ago — decided to provide a choice. After eight years of planning and work, doors to the center, named after longtime Littleton social worker and housing authority board member Libby Bortz, opened in January 1994. Shepherd interviewed all the prospective residents personally. The move, she says, almost immediately “enhanced their lives and prolonged their lives.” The apartment space was small. But it was their space. “There were enough things that they were giving up in the aging process without having to have a stranger as a roommate,” Shepherd says. “That’s not the way we wanted our grandmother or our own parents to live.” With no kitchens in apartments and a community dining room, the model encouraged socialization. Not isolation. Small changes, such as staff dispensing correct medication and providing laundry service, sparked dramatic changes. Less confusion, more pride in appearance, more confidence. And, there was the warmth that wrapped residents close, because, of course, this was a labor of love. ••• On a recent chilly afternoon, a few days after a 20th anniversary reunion and celebration, piano notes drift into the lobby from the finely appointed dining room. The gas fireplace is lit. A man in his 90s sits in an armchair, eyes closed, whistling softly to the tune, “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ on My Head.” Tables the hue of dark cherrywood stand next to tall-backed armchairs and love seats the color of wine, gold and green. Several cozy living rooms are scattered throughout the three floors, along with a courtyard garden, TV rooms and a community kitchen.
Wide, third-floor balconies with white wicker furniture face glorious mountain views. In one hallway is the Salute to Veterans Wall, where portraits of loved ones who served the country continuously flow across a television mounted on the blue wall. Jeanne Whalen, 72, sits on her walker across from the screen, watching for the photos of her two brothers, who served in the Korean War. “Not this one,” she says, eyes on the scrolling pictures. “Not this next one. “The next one is my two brothers. They were in the Korean War.” The photos, taken in the 1950s, identify Dan Whalen, Navy, and Paul Whalen, Air Force. A year apart, they were 10 years older than Jeanne. “I come here every day,” she says, because “I love them and I miss them.” Jeanne, who has emphysema, moved from New York a year ago to be near her daughter. The move has been good. “You get the help you need, and I’ve made lots of friends,” she says. “Praise the Lord for this place.” Downstairs, the only resident who has lived here since the first year arrives from an outing. Virginia Chynoweth, 92, carefully wheels her walker to a chair. She peers through her glasses. “I like everything about it,” she says about her home. She’s able to go wherever she pleases. And, “I feel safe.” In the end, that’s what a home should be — not a crushing burden, just simply safe. Especially when we’re old. For Dawn Shepherd, that means the world. If the time should come, she already knows which room she’d choose. It’d be easy, after all, to live in a place built with love.

WESTMINSTER CITY COUNCIL ON THE RECORD access to the newly finished segment of 142nd Avenue to Scott Contracting to complete the project. Completion date is mid-November
Westminster City Council voted on the following legislation during the Oct. 27 meeting. Council members in attendance were Mayor Herb Atchison, Mayor Pro Tem Faith Winter and councilors Alberto Garcia, Bruce Baker, Emma Pinter, Bob Briggs and Anita Seitz.
Contract approved for engineering services Council unanimously authorized the city manager to execute a contract with JR Engineering, LLC for construction engineering services for the McKay Drainageway Channel and Regional Detention Pond Project in the amount of $223,520 with a project contingency of $25,000. The McKay Drainageway Project is a planned system of drainage facilities in the general area between 136th Avenue and 144th Avenue and east from Zuni Street to Big Dry Creek at Washington Street in Thornton. The only remaining unimproved portion of the drainageway lies between I-25 and Huron Street where a wide, shallow floodplain still exists. This floodplain is a significant constraint to the development of one of the larger vacant sites in the city.
Contract approved to finish project Council unanimously authorized the city manager to execute an amended construction engineering services contract for the Orchard Parkway project (136th Avenue to 144th Avenue) and 142nd Avenue project (Orchard Parkway to Huron Street) with JR Engineering in the amount of $71,080, bringing the total contract amount to $393,620. Scott Contracting has been constructing the Orchard Parkway Project since November 2013. The work is currently 90-percent complete, but the phasing of the project had to be revised in order to accommodate the contractor of the Saint Anthony North Hospital. The phasing revision required the city’s contractor to first concentrate on that portion of the project, south of the 144th Avenue/Orchard Parkway intersection, then move the hospital construction

Council unanimously passed Councilor’s Bill No. 34 on first reading authorizing the city manager to enter into a one-year lease, renewable automatically on an annual basis for four additional one-year terms, for dry-land farming of the Strasburg Natural Resource Farm in return for one third of the gross annual crop sale revenues. The city will also pay up to $50,000 a year on weed control at the farm. The city owns approximately 3,000 acres of farmland for the purpose of applying the biosolids generated by the city’s wastewater treatment process to agricultural crops. The biosolids are rich in nutrients and are used as fertilizer for crops grown as part of the city’s wastewater biosolids application program. Two farmers currently lease property on the Strasburg Natural Resource Farm and coordinate with staff in the selection and timing of the crops planted on the property. The next council meeting is at 7 p.m. on Nov. 10 at City Hall, 4800 W. 92nd Ave. in Westminster. — Compiled by Ashley Reimers

Lillard & Clark Construction Co. in the amount of $477,039 for construction of the 95th Avenue and Federal Boulevard Lift Station Rehabilitation Project plus a contingency of $47,704 for a total of $524,743. Council also authorized an amendment to the design contract with Lidstone and Associates, Inc. to include engineering services during construction in the amount of $69,220 plus a contingency of $6,922 for an expenditure of $76,142, increasing the total authorized expenditure with Lidstone and Associates, Inc. from the previously approved amount of $108,167 to $184,309. The existing lift station is prone to clogging and frequent maintenance requirements. Rehabilitating this lift station is necessary to reduce excessive maintenance and to prevent equipment failures and sewer back-ups. Due to the changing bid climate, construction bids were higher than anticipated. Staff requested $250,000 of additional funds from the Utility Capital Project Reserve to allow this project to proceed. Council approved the appropriation of these funds on first reading on October 13.

Special notes from Santa Elves bring cheer around holidays By Tammy Kranz
tkranz@colorado communitymedia.com When Santa’s elves at The Senior Hub work on letters to good boys and girls, they do more than scrawl signatures on a piece of paper. They make sure to personalize each and every letter, sometimes spending a couple days on just one to get the wording right. “You know it’s going to bring happiness to a kid and a whole family when it’s opened and it feels good to be part of that magical moment,” said Calinda Bowman, one of the head elves at The Senior Hub. The Letters from Santa program began in 2010 and is a fundraiser for The Senior Hub, a nonprofit based in
Federal Heights that works the quality of life for older adults through advocacy, community partnerships and a variety of direct services that help sustain independence. The letters cost a $5 donation each. “It doesn’t make us a lot of money but we all love doing it,” said Renee Dees, development and community relations director with The Senior Hub. “It’s a lot of fun.” People who wish to send the letter need to fill out the form, which is available at www.seniorhub.org. The form asks for the child’s name, address, age, gender and a recent accomplishment or special note that Santa or his elves can add to the letter to personalize it. “So the typical things parents of 2-year-olds put is they learned to go potty by themselves,” Dees said. While typically the letters go to children, the program is opened to anyone of any age. Sending letters to senior citizens in nursing homes is also popular.
“Basically just so they can get mail,” Dees said. “They don’t normally get mail in nursing homes too much so that’s exciting for them.” The letters return address states “Santa’s Workshop” and there is nothing on the letter or envelope saying who requested the letter. Some of the backstories of the letters are sad. Last year they sent out a letter to a man who lost everything he owned in the flood. One year Santa had to tell a child that everything was going to be OK after one of his parents died. “Even if the content is sad, we try to keep it upbeat,” Dees said. The farthest a letter has been sent is Australia. The program generally averages about 200 letters annually, but Dees said she would like to see that get to 500 this year. Forms must be received by Dec. 8. Santa’s elves will hold a potluck on Dec. 17 and get to work personalizing the letters.

ADAMS COUNTY NEWS IN A HURRY Dave Ruppel named new Front Range manager
Following an extensive national search, Adams County Manager Todd Leopold announced the hiring of Dave Ruppel as the new Front Range Airport Manager. Ruppel is a familiar name in aviation circles along the Front Range. He comes to Front Range Airport from Yampa Valley Regional Airport in Hayden, Colorado, where he has served as airport manager for nine years. Prior to his tenure in the Steamboat Springs area at Yampa Valley Regional Airport (YVRA), Ruppel served 23 years in the United States Navy where he flew both helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft before
taking a position as Executive Officer at a Navy airport in Georgia. Front Range Airport is a general aviation airport located 19 miles east of Denver on 3,900 acres of land in Watkins, Colorado. The airport is considered a potential spaceport site that would serve as a hub to aerospace and space tourism industries.

Nothing endures but change Regardless of the context or the situation, the Greek philosopher Heraclitus had it right when he said so profoundly, “Nothing endures but change.” And so it goes with the Westminster city government, as some of the key leadership will be leaving and others taking their places. Let’s start with the city attorney.
quired to stand election in November 2015 along with Councillor Anita Seitz.
Institutional knowledge drain
Longterm city attorney retires
Marty McCullough, who was city attorney for more than 25 years, retired in September. A formal recruitment and search for his replacement has been “in the pipeline.” City Council will have interviewed the final four candidates by the time you pick up this newspaper. I would speculate that they will select the top choice, complete vetting this person and make a formal announcement before the end of November. However, I have been told that Marty McCullough is continuing “on contract” working on some pending important matters separate from getting the new attorney on board.
cally, a council will interview four to seven candidates from the narrowed field. If all works out alright, I would speculate that the new city manager would be announced in January and be on board in February. However, I have been told that Brent McFall will continue to work “under contract” on the negotiations involving the redevelopment of the Westminster Mall. Nothing against Brent, but it begs the question does the city need to continue paying the $240,000 annual salary beyond his retirement and no one else on staff can do the prescribed work?
City manager soon will retire
Probable city councillor change
Brent McFall planned way ahead when he announced that he would be retiring 18 months later from his announcement. The time is growing short as Brent had previously said he would be retiring in January 2015. He will have served 13 1/2 years as Westminster’s city manager. The City Council contracted with a “head-hunting” firm to recruit and advertise the position opening. The firm generated interested applicants who filed with the city. Applications are now closed. So, the “head-hunting” firm will now assist in narrowing the field of candidates for the City Council to consider. Typi-
The final leadership change is not confirmed just yet, but I will go ahead and address the possibility. (I am writing this column before the Nov. 4th election) This change is dependent on Mayor Pro Tem Faith Winter winning State House District 35. She is running against Republican Mike Melvin. I would give you odds that she wins fairly handily. So, assuming she wins her Statehouse seat, she will need to resign from City Council no later than before she is sworn-in to serve in the State Legislature in early January. This would trigger council taking action to fill Winter’s vacancy. Whoever is appointed will be re-
In November, 2013, Emma Pinter, Alberto Garcia and Bruce Baker were elected to City Council. Then came Anita Seitz to fill Councillor Herb Atchison’s vacant seat when he became mayor. Assuming Winter wins, a fifth new face will appear on the City Council dais. Folks, that is tremendous change in a relative short period of time. The institutional knowledge and history of the city leadership will have been significantly “drained.” Mayor Atchison and Councillor Bob Briggs are the “old guard,” and Briggs will be term-limited in November 2015. Wow, that is more turnover in the city manager, city attorney and City Council than has ever happened in Westminster.
Wait and see
So, we end where we started, “Nothing endures but change.” Will it be good or bad? Will it be better or worse? Will there be major change? All I can tell you right now is that the Westminster city government will continue to provide quality services. As far as public policy direction like collective bargaining, voter registration promotion, development requirements, incentives to the developer of the former Westminster Mall site, re-development in south Westminster and many other issues, we will have do as my mother would say to me when I was a boy, “Bill, we will just have to wait and see.” Bill Christopher is a former Westminster city manager and RTD board member.

I’m hoping my senior year ends with positivity and enjoying life with my friends. Jairo Guerrero
I’m most looking forward to baseball season and getting finals over with, because that’s when I’ll finally be able to relax for a while before it all starts again in college. Jaime Rodriguez

Bill would ease college planning This fall, a familiar story for high school seniors and their parents is repeating itself across Colorado. From Sterling to Silverton, members of the class of 2015 are making some of their first major life decisions as college application deadlines approach. Which schools should I apply to? Should I stay home or move away? Is a vocational school right for me? Can I afford my top choice? That last question has become more complicated than necessary. Financial aid — through scholarships, grants, and loans — makes college accessible and affordable for many families. In Colorado, hundreds of thousands of students rely on federal student aid every year. Yet, in what has become a backward system, our high school seniors won’t find out how much federal aid they are eligible to receive until well into their second semester. That makes cost and affordability decisions breathtakingly unclear as most college applications are due months earlier. Sen. Lamar Alexander, a Republican from Tennessee, and I have proposed a simple solution: Let families learn how much aid they can expect to receive dur-
ing their junior year of high school. They’ll be armed with one of the most useful pieces of information they will need at a critical point in their college search. Our plan, the Financial Aid Simplification and Transparency Act, is also known as the FAST Act. Families applying for federal financial aid such as Pell grants and federal student loans are becoming familiar with the FAFSA, or the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. It’s a lengthy 108-question form with dozens of pages of instructions — not exactly the most user-friendly form, but still a gateway to college affordability. Unfortunately, even after filling out the FAFSA, students usually don’t find out what grants and loans they can take out until they’ve chosen where and whether
to apply. Students and their parents shouldn’t have to wait on pins and needles to find out if they’re going to receive enough aid to pay for college. They also shouldn’t have to spend hours filling out a complicated form just to get to that point. The FAST Act cuts through the red tape to streamline this whole process. In addition to providing families with financial aid eligibility a year earlier, it reduces the entire FAFSA form to two questions. Research tells us that simplifying the form will encourage more families to fill it out. It makes aid more predictable and will help encourage more students, as young as middle school, to pursue college. Students will access crucial aid they otherwise would have left on the table, which might be the difference between going to school and not applying at all. Earlier this year we visited colleges and met with students across the state. We heard from students like Joshua Allard at Metro State who didn’t learn he was eligible for a Pell grant until the end of the semester — a semester he wasn’t sure he was going to be able to afford. Front Range Community College President Andy
Dorsey told us one of the most common reasons they lose students is financial hardship — an obstacle that could be overcome with earlier notification of aid eligibility and a shorter form. We heard similar stories out of Pueblo Community College, University of Colorado-Colorado Springs, University of Colorado-Denver, Community College of Denver, Colorado State University, and Colorado Mesa University. It’s a commonsense solution that will make college an option for more students. Families won’t lose out on financial aid because they are deterred by the FAFSA’s unnecessary length and complexity, and students will be able to make more informed decisions about their college choices. In today’s global economy, a college education is a prerequisite for many career paths. Reforming the FAFSA and financial aid process will help make college an option for more Coloradans. That means a stronger workforce, and a healthier, more competitive economy for all of us. Democrat Michael Bennet has represented Colorado in the U.S. Senate since 2009.
Pride always ready take role on the field I was watching some football the other day, and I see this incredible score scroll across the bottom of the screen: Baylor 60, Kansas 14. And you thought the Broncos had it bad this week. 60-14. That kind of score took me back to my days at the University of Colorado, in the glory days of the late 1980s and early ‘90s. They regularly racked up victories like that against lesser opponents. In fact, it was sort of fun for us to make little non-monetary, non-binding, non-NCAAinfracting side bets about how long it would take CU to get to 50. As I look back on it, as hard as those games had to be for the other team, they were invaluable for CU for one reason: in a rout, you get to put in younger players and get them some game-speed experience. That is one reason why there are perennial powerhouses in college football: when it’s time for a younger player to replace a star who just got drafted, that younger player is usually somebody who’s played some minutes. You don’t have to replace stars with complete rookies. When Darian Hagan graduated, there was Kordell Stew-
art ready to step in with a little bit of game experience. But then I got to thinking about what a great opportunity that would have been for the coaches to build some loyalty among their players. Imagine being the fifth defensive back on the depth chart — you never get a lot of reps in practice, you’re never within sniffing distance of getting in the game, but you, like your brothers, are in the weight room first thing every morning, putting in the work. Maybe it’s enough to wear the uniform and be on the sideline (and have college paid for), but, if you’re like most competitors, you’re dying to get a little bit of playing time. But you know you probably won’t. So, how much harder would that fifth-
At last, the results Finally we have some peace and quiet at our home and I hope you can have some also. And you will if you turn off the TV, put on some soft music and welcome a day that’s going to be remembered as Freedom Day. Of course you will remember all those prior days when every news report was heralded with four or more of those obnoxious political ads. Never, never did we see so many, one right after another. I vowed then that I wouldn’t vote for any of them. But then I quickly found there was only one candidate who didn’t stray and that person was Joe Neguse who was running for Secretary of State. I was almost giddy, saying his name over and over so I wouldn’t forget it. And I marked his name on the ballot good and hard so as to make sure that vote counted. By the time you read this we’ll know if good, balanced, honest advertising still has a place in our political world. Thank you, Joe, you are definitely “one
of the good guys”. P.S. I’ve been “under the weather” for several weeks and not writing my column. I’m on the mend now. Stay well, stay involved and stay tuned….

string player work out the next week if, toward the end of the 60-14 rout, his coach yells down the bench “You’re in!” He might be terrible, he might be lost on the field, it could be a debacle. But he’ll get to run back to his dorm room that night and call mom and dad and ask, “Did you see me?” I had a very smart mentor one time who told me he always wanted to be the person to make the phone call telling somebody that they got the job. That connection, that moment of shared good news, he said, is the sort of thing on which good working relationships get built. And Proverbs tells us “Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in
your power to act.” What a powerful movement that could become, if everybody just took one opportunity every day to be that small source of good in somebody else’s day. And, hey! Look at that: we’re now completely immersed in the holiday season, when we’re all supposed to be a little more like that, anyway. Just a thought.

Reporter shares story of state in MSNBC show If you’re Rachel Maddow looking to poke through Colorado politics, you won’t find a better tour guide than Lynn Bartels, political reporter for The Denver Post. Bartels has the pulse of our state’s politicos, and is well respected by both parties. Bartels guided MSNBC host Rachel Maddow through Denver, and the results were broadcast on Oct. 28. You can catch each segment at www.msnbc.com/search/ Lynn%20Bartels. In the short scenes, Bartels talks to Maddow about how important smiling is to the Mark Udall-Cory Gardner U.S. Senate race, the horse on the Paul Bunyansized red chair next to the main library, and the Bannock street spot — now a gym — where various successful Democratic candidates had their campaign headquarters or conducted business to support other Dem hopefuls.
Quilters send messages, support survivors By Clarke Reader
creader@colorado communitymedia.com There are many responses to tragedy and many different ways to reach out to those who have suffered enormous loss. When a 9.0 magnitude earthquake and tsunami with 133foot waves struck Japan in 2011, quilters from all over the country responded by making quilts for those in need of comfort and as a way to comfort themselves as they processed the disaster. Miwako Kimura, Sachiko Yoshida, and Noriko Koyama — three noted Japanese quilt artists and teachers — joined with their students to support survivors in their quilt-making efforts. The Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum, 1213 Washington Ave. in Golden, plays host to 29 of those quilts in their “Wishes Through Our Hands” exhibit. The quilts will be on display through Jan. 24 and the gallery is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday. Kimura, the curator, is pleased and gratified to exhibit these quilts in America. “We have learned countless patterns and techniques for quiltmaking from your country, and we are thrilled to continue the ‘heartfelt gift in every stitch’ tradition,” she said. “We sincerely hope you can read our wishes and thoughts, stitched and sewn in these quilts.” The connection between U.S.

IF YOU GO WHAT: Wishes Through Our Hands: Japanese Quilts WHERE: Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum 1213 Washington Ave., Golden WHEN: Through Jan. 24 Monday - Saturday - 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday - 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. COST: $3 - $6 INFORMATION: 303-277-0377 or www.rmqm.org and Japanese quilters began in the 1970s when American quilters toured the island, said Irene Berry, marketing and exhibits manager at the museum. “Japan has a tradition of needlework and recycling fabrics…” Berry said. “Women in Japan wanted to learn how to do American quilting and so a very specific way to teach them was established.” In addition to learning about pattern drafting and designs of American quilting, the women were also taught about the history of the American craft. As a result, even though the subjects and aesthetic are Japanese, the quilts still resemble American examples. “There are two main fabrics used in Japanese quilts — indigo and silk,” Berry explained. “The indigo fabrics are used by those lower on the social scale and silk was employed by those higher up.” The 29 quilts on display vary from traditional to contemporary, but all reflect the devotion
of teacher and student to their craft. In Japan, Berry said, once students decide on a teacher they commit for their entire instruction period. The exhibit first came to the attention of the Rocky Mountain Quilting Museum thanks to a participant in the museum’s annual men’s showcase. The man knew about a Japanese quilt exhibit in La Conner, Washington, and was able to arrange for it to travel to Golden. “This is a rare opportunity to see quilts directly from Japan,” Berry said. “This is the only place outside of La Conner they can be seen and the quilts will be going back to Japan after our exhibit.” The rarity and quality of the quilts make the show a must-visit for those interested in culture and craft. “Visitors get to see a quality interpretation of American quilts through Japanese artists,” Berry said. “Their design sense is just spectacular and a lot of time goes into making these quilts exquisite.” For more information call 303277-0377 or visit www.rmqm.org. Curator Miwako Kimura says she is pleased and gratified to exhibit this group of quilts in America. She adds, “We have learned countless patterns and techniques for quiltmaking from your country, and we are thrilled to continue the ‘heartfelt gift in every stitch’ tradition. We sincerely hope you can read our wishes and thoughts, stitched and sewn in these quilts.”
The Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, 1485 Delgany St., is hosting an exhibit of the art of Mark Mothersbaugh, co-founder of the New Wave band Devo, through April 12. “Mark Mothersbaugh: Myopia” is the first retrospective of the artist’s work from the beginning of his career in the early 1970s through the present. Almost all of Mothersbaugh’s visual art originates with drawings on postcards, which he has been working on daily since the ‘70s. His postcards, which now exceed 30,000, provide the basic imagery for his paintings, prints, rugs, videos and sculptures. For more information, go to www. mcadenver.org/markmothersbaugh.php.
Men’s health is focus
In an effort to raise awareness of men’s health issues, the Tavern Hospitality Group has created an official Movember USA team called “StacheTag Tavern.” People can join Tavern’s team to support the cause at www.moteam.co/stachetagtavern. The Movember Foundation is dedicated to having an everlasting impact on the face of men’s health. Their annual Movember campaign involves the growing of mustaches during the month of November to raise awareness of men’s health issues, such as prostate cancer and other male cancers and associated charities. As Movember USA team members grow mustaches, they try to encourage friends and family to support the cause by pledging funds to their particular page. “This is our first year to participate in Movember,” said Frank Schultz, owner of Tavern Hospitality Group. “I think most people know someone who’s been affected by a health issue that is specific to men. We wanted to help raise funds for research and treatment. I hope we have a lot of people join our team so we can make an impact.” The Tavern is giving a free shave at Floyd’s Barbershop and a $150 Tavern gift card to the “StacheTag Tavern” team member who ends up with the best mustache at the end of the month.

Interested residents and property owners are invited to attend the meetings at 7 p.m. in

Standley Lake takes title By Scott Stocker “Trick or Treat.” It was certainly close competition between Standley Lake and Elizabeth for the team title in the Class 4A State Gymnastics Meet last Friday. The ‘Treat’ in this case certainly goes to Standley Lake as the Gators narrowly defeated Elizabeth, 179.05-178.35, for the team title in the competition held at Thornton High School on Halloween. With more than one outstanding ‘Trick’, Thompson Valley’s Alyssa Carroll earned a ‘Treat’ of her own, winning the All-around championship with a score of 38.55 points. She placed first on each of the four events in the All-around competition as she defeated Standley Lake’s Jordan Ireland (36.975) and Rachel Cody (36.575). Not only that, but it was her second All-around title. Niwot’s Marissa Koski (36.4), Elizabeth’s Brooke Burton (35.8), Evergreen’s Caroline Cohen (35.625), Standley Lake’s Maddie York (35.3) and Elizabeth’s Jessie Geerczynski (35.275) rounded out the medal winners in the individual Allaround competition. They would then be on their ways into Saturday’s individual events competition in which the top 15 in each event advanced. It definitely has been a good two seasons for Carroll who will be heading to the University of Nebraska, especially following injuries in her younger years. It’s nice to note she was the 4A, Allaround champion last season. “Back in the sixth grade, I couldn’t get out of bed,” Carroll said. “I took four years off and then I did cheerleading my first two years of high school. My back didn’t hurt doing that. I was like, “Oh, I might as well try gymnastics again, because I’ve always felt that little hole in my heart since I haven’t been doing gymnastics.” Carroll took her top event efforts into Saturday’s individual finals. She won vault, 9.85, scored 9.75 on the balance beam, 9.7 on the uneven bars, but had to settle for the Silver medal on floor, 9.475. It was here that Ireland came through for the floor title with a narrow, 9.50, victory. Ireland, a senior, was pleased with Standley Lake’s team effort, but she had hopes throughout the meet the Gators would be able to pull it out. She placed second on the beam (9.45) and vault (9.55), third on the bars (9.1), but had to settle for 13th in the All-around competition (8.825). The best was yet to come for Ireland as she was able to put the damper of Carroll’s efforts by winning the gold medal on floor with her 9.5 effort. “I’m just happy with the way it turned out,” Ireland said. “I had a lot of support from the girls and I just did my best and to go hard on every event. This is my last year in gymnastics and it will be one to remember. “I think we all did well, but we had a few mistakes and that happens,” Ireland said. “I’ve been doing gymnastics for 15 years and this is my last meet. I’m going

Photos by Pam Wagner to Wyoming, but I don’t think I’ll compete in gymnastics there.” Cody placed second on Floor (9.325), fourth on Beam (9.35), sixth on Bars (8.85) and 10th on Vault (9.05) in the Allaround competition. She would finish with individual medals of fourth on the Bars (8.85) and fifth on Beam (9.4). “I couldn’t have asked for a better freshman year and coming to state,” Cody said. “The key was to have fun in the finals and enjoy what our team has been able to accomplish. We all tried hard and it was one of our best meets of the season. “This is my first state meet and it has been a good way to start my high school career,” Cody continued. “The key was to stay calm and not play attention to other from the other schools. We just wanted to focus on ourselves.” Those, too, were certainly the positive thoughts of Standley Lake’s Maddi York, who was seventh in the All-around with a score of 35.3. She would finish fourth on floor (9.375) and eighth on bars (8.6) to round out her season. “It was just a fine way to end my senior year,” York said. “I just wanted to go out and have fun in the finals. I worked hard to achieve my goal. You can’t be perfect and mistakes happen. We all just wanted to stay confident and have as few mistakes as possible.” Team-wise, it certainly was a treat for Standley Lake coach Kristen Larrington. What made it all the more special was the fact the Gators were really not sure if the school would have a team this season. Prior to the season, she only had three

Of the eight girls on the team, five are seniors, one junior and two freshmen. “This definitely was our best meet of the season,” Larrington said. “I couldn’t have asked for more when it comes down to the wire. We were six-for-six on the beam and bars and that is rare at any level of performance. We knew that we would be at are strongest heading into our last two events.” Standley Lake was first in the team competition on beam (46.1) and bars (43.1), second on floor (44.92) and fourth on vault (44.925).
Hawks take it to overtime Chatfield edges Westminster in playoffs By Scott Stocker When it comes to the state rankings or seeding in state tournaments there are a lot of players and coaches who just don’t want to believe in them. That was the case when Chatfield played Westminster in last Tuesday’s Class 5A state soccer tourney game at Lakewood Memorial Field. Chatfield, seeded No. 22, defeated West-
minster, seeded 27th, 4-3, in overtime. The winning goal was scored by Ben Overholt off an assist from Jacob Cabot with 3-minutes, 56 seconds left in the overtime. But it was an overtime that Chatfield didn’t think was even going to take place. Overholt had been able to put Chatfield ahead, 3-2, with 1:54 left in regulation and it appeared the Chargers would come through a winner at that point. But with :33 remaining Westminster’s Said Moreno would tie the game with his second goal of the game. Thus, overtime. With the way both teams played on
that clear night, extremely physical and tightly contested, it almost appeared a second overtime could be in the works. It just worked out well for Chatfield as the Chargers, 11-4-1, were able to pull it out. “We have some momentum and we’ve played hard,” said Overholt, a senior striker, who has scored 15 goals this season. “This is a big win for us and I’m impressed how both teams played tonight. I’m proud of what we’ve been able to do late in the season. “I don’t think a lot of people thought we could get this far,” Overholt said. “We just
have to keep the tempo up, and, I think we can do it. We were a bit surprised by our low seeding, but I think it was something that certainly helped us play harder.” Chatfield, coached by Brock Blume, defeated Rangeview, seeded No. 11, 3-2 in their first round game. Westminster, under coach Ben Forbes, upset No. 6 seeded Arapahoe, 2-1, in its first round game. It definitely was a tough loss for Moreno and his teammates as the Warriors finished their season with an 8-8-1 record. Soccer continues on Page 18

Eaglecrest tops Legacy in playoffs By Scott Stocker The football season certainly ended on a heartbreaking note for Legacy in the first round of the Class 5A playoffs last Friday. As it turned out, home standing Legacy, seeded No. 4 in their quadrant, was beaten by No. 5 Eaglecrest, 49-24. And, it was anyone’s game heading into the fourth quarter. Eaglecrest, which improved to 5-5, led 21-17 going into the final 12 minutes. But the Raptors of coach Mike Schmitt, scored four touchdowns to put the game their win column. Eaglecrest’s quarterback, Elijah Ross, had a fine night passing and rushing with the football. He would complete 19-of-27 passes for 358 yards then added to his total by rushing another 20 times for 145 yards. His five-yard touchdown run, with 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter gave the Raptors a 28-17 lead. And, it didn’t take long for Eaglecrest to reach the end zone again after forcing Legacy to punt with 8:54 left in the quarter. It only took six plays from the Eaglecrest 24-yard line to reach the Legacy end zone. This time the Raptors scored on a two-yard run by Scott Neal with 7:56 on the clock and what became an insurmountable, 35-17 lead. It just didn’t get any better for Legacy. Legacy quarterback, Matt Lynch, had his pass intercepted by Eaglecrest’s Kyle Carter with 7:05 remaining at the Eagles 29yard line. Yet while their ensuing drive would be stymied with 6:01 left, Legacy fumbled the punt attempt and the ball was recovered by the Eagles Charles Roberts at the 31-yard line. Four plays later, Ross passed to Peter Anderson for a 29yard touchdown, for a 42-17 lead for Eaglecrest. From there it would only take the Raptors two plays to get the ball back. This time on an interception by Darian Turner. Two penalties charged to Legacy took the ball down to the
Lightning’s 6-yard line. Three plays later, Ross would hit Anderson with another touchdown pass from three-yards out with 3:08 left in the game. Legacy would take the following kickoff from its own 20yard line. The Lightning made use of eight plays to score its final touchdown of the year on a 1-yard run by K.J. Robinson with :10-seconds left and the final, 49-24, outcome. “This is my senior year and this is one of the best teams that I’ve played on,” Ross said. “I think we were able to show what we are made of. The Centennial League was very tough this season and we learned a lot from the experience. “Legacy is a pretty good team, but we responded well against them,” Ross said. “In the second half we played a much stronger game. We’ll have to see how it goes from here, but we’re confident.” Legacy scored its initial touchdown in the first quarter on a 58-yard run by Lynch, which followed Eaglecrest’s first touchdown, a 47-yard pass from Ross to Matt Lally with 8:22 left in the first quarter. The Lightning would score the only points in the second quarter on a 24-yard field goal by Hunter Rainwater. Kai Ahmadu would gather in a 3-yard pass for a touchdown from Lynch for the Lightning’s third quarter touchdown with 1:41 remaining. Yet it came shortly after Eaglecrest’s Anthony Karmayzn had pulled in a 37-yard touchdown pass from Ross with 5:19 on the clock. From there, it was into the fourth quarter and the Eaglecrest outbreak. Definitely, hard to take for Legacy coach, Wayne Voorhees, Lynch and Connolly. “We just had to many turnovers,” Voorhees said. “I thought we had a fine third quarter and I’m proud of the way the kids have played this season. We just couldn’t get up the field like we should have. But Eaglecrest is a fine team.”
Legacy’s Derek Coleman (87) and Troy Fossett (42) look on as Tanner Ross (34) tackles an Eaglegrest player in the third quarter of the 49-24 loss to Eaglecrest on Friday night in the first round of 5A playoffs. Photo by Pam Wagner Lynch passed for 116-yards in the game, but three interceptions were killers on the night. “They just came out and played us much stronger in the second half and they applied the pressure,” Lynch said. “It was up and down for us and we just couldn’t complete some of our drives.” Added Connolly in conclusion, “We just couldn’t get going in the right way in the second half. We played hard, though. They just came up with the big plays and we had some costly mistakes. You want to keep moving on the field and we just couldn’t when we need to the most.” It doesn’t get any easier for Eaglecrest as the Raptors play Ralston Valley (10-0) in the next round. Ralston Valley advanced with a 48-0 victory over Grand Junction.
No. 1 Pomona survives Arapahoe’s upset bid Behind fourth string running back Panthers advance By Daniel Williams dwilliams@colorado communitymedia.com ARVADA - Pomona received a serious scare but won its playoff opener against Arapahoe 36-32 Thursday at North Area Athletic Complex. The No. 1 Panthers survived a valiant effort by the No. 8 Warriors who were a better team than their seed indicated.
But Pomona was also playing without a couple of its best offensive players in running backs Max Borghi and Isaac Marquez, both out injured. That allowed fourth-string running back Dillon Pace — who is really a safety — to go absolutely nuts on the ground rushing for 325 yards and three touchdowns. Pace set the pace as well as the tone for a Panthers team that struggled in the game’s opening quarter allowing Arapahoe to jump out to a 14-6 lead. The Warriors got a solid contribution from their junior quarterback Pete Mitchell who threw for 205 yards and two touchdowns. Pomona quarterback Justin Roberts and
his team’s offense got it together in the second half as the senior threw a pair of touchdowns to senior Ryan Ward and sophomore Jeremy Gonzales. And then the Panthers put Arapahoe away late in the game moving the ball 86 yards down the field for the game’s longest drive, which was capped by Pace’s third touchdown of the night. The Warriors would attempt a game-winning drive over the game’s final minutes but an intentional grounding call on quarterback Mitchell, created off a Panthers’ blitz, turned out to be one of the definitive plays of the night. Pomona (8-2, 6-1 in league) will now pre-

pare to face No. 5 Columbine Friday at 4 p.m. at Jeffco Stadium. Columbine beat No. 4 Rangeview 48-7 Friday in its playoff opener. Pomona and Columbine already met once this season on Oct. 10, and the Panthers handled the Rebels in a 47-28 victory. But despite the (5-5) record Columbine is a different team than the team who lost three of its first four game of the season. The Rebels have been led this season by senior running back Austin Norton who has rushed for nearly 1,300 yards and 18 touchdowns this season. Norton and sophomore running back Mikey Greibel (650 yards and 11 touchdowns) combine to be one of the most dynamic running back duos in the state.

“It was just a case of not giving up and believing in ourselves this season,” said Moreno, a senior. “We just never gave up and got the goal in the last minute. We just wish we could have contained them in the overtime. “We started out 0-6 at the beginning of the season, so making it this far is an accomplishment,” Moreno said. “It’s such a tough way to end the year, but thanks to all my teammates and coaches.” It also was a surprising end to regulation for Forbes. He just wished it could have led to a victory in the overtime for the Warriors. “No words can describe how well the boys played,” Forbes said. “We were just able to come back. I’m so proud of the way they played and how they have been able to come on late in the season. And, Chatfield just played a fine game against us, give them credit.” Westminster’s Brandon Enriquez, a junior defenseman, felt his team was going to pull it out after the Warriors late goal. “We played hard and we grew strong together,” Enriquez said. “After starting with the 0-6 record, we were able to make history for our school by making it to the playoffs. It’s a tough loss, but one that I think will help us play much better next season.” Westminster jumped out to a 1-0 lead with 27:28 left in the first half on Moreno first goal and an assist from Gio Romero Hernandez. But it really didn’t take long for Chatfield to answer the goal. With 21:33 remaining, freshman Wyatt Solarte scored for the Chargers. The next goals, tying the score, 2-2, would also be close together. With 22:47 left in the half, Chatfield’s Jared Reiss scored on a penalty kick. Westminster would answer with 21:51 remaining in regulation scoring on a header by Brandon Enriquez off an assist from Chance Vang. Thus the stage was set for the game’s regulation ending and the trip into the overtime. “We started out slow, but it was a great ending,” Blume said. “We have two starters injured, but the boys stepped up. They all played hard, but both teams did. It was, yes, physical out there. Now, we’ll have to see how it goes from here.”

Program invests in reading for students at North Star Elementary By Ashley Reimers
areimers @coloradocommunitymedia.com Students in Stephanie Clemens’ firstgrade class waited anxiously Oct. 30 for their second book delivery of the year through Book Trust, a program that provides books for kids from low-income families. Each student in grades kindergarten through second at North Star Elementary School in Thornton has up to $7 to spend each month on books of their own keeping. This unique gift was made possible through a partnership with the Morgridge Family Foundation and the Adams 12 Five Star district. The foundation donated $16,000 to the Book Trust program and the district matched $10,000 for a total of $26,000 to be spent by students this school year on books. North Star literacy support teacher Lynda Dowd said the books will make a huge impact on not only the school, but families of the students. “Now the kids get to take home the books and keep them, this will benefit our community in a way we will never be able to measure,” she said. “As a reading specialist I know this program will make a huge difference
now that kids are able to build their libraries at home and be able to read to their siblings.” Carrie Morgridge with the Morgridge Family Foundation agrees that Book Trust will have a significant impact on the North Star students. When it comes to literacy, Morgridge believes family involvement is needed for success. She said she supports Book Trust because the program invests in families. “Through Book Trust kids are able to choose books of their own choice that they are passionate about reading, which can make a profound impact on their reading skills,” she said. Because Book Trust allows students to keep all the books they choose with the $7 monthly stipend, Morgridge said some parents can’t believe the program is for real. She said it’s not until a few months go by that the parents have true buy-in. “Parents think Book Trust is too good to be true, but when they get past that the parents actually start to add a little money to each month’s order,” she said. “So what was first a $7 order turns into a $7.25 order then a $7.50 order. The parents understand the importance of the program so they’ll add some money. It’s a big deal.”

Open house informs public on Northwest Corridor By Ashley Reimers
areimers @coloradocommunitymedia.com The Denver Regional Council of Governments, DRCOG, and 36 Commuting Solutions hosted an open house informing the public about the current happenings along the U.S. 36 corridor, which is undergoing a major transformation into a multi-modal corridor utilizing Bus Rapid Transit, BRT. The Nov. 1 open house offered stakeholders the opportunity to learn more about topics including first and final-mile connections to stations along US 36, bicycle/pedestrian access and information on the FasTracks US 36 BRT line, which will offer riders the choice of a nonstop or all-stop service along U.S. 36 between Boulder and Union Station in Denver. The line debuts in 2016.
During the open house two presentations were given by Paul Aldretti, the sustainable Communities coordinator for DRCOG. The Sustainable Communities Initiative Northwest Corridor is made up of a group of planners, public works staff and economic development staff from the jurisdictions along the Northwest Commuter Rail Line and the US BRT Line. The group worked together to come up with a vision, goals and implementation strategies for the Northwest Corridor. Aldretti said the Northwest Corridor is a national example of how multiple modes of transportation can connect a region and support the development of transit-oriented communities. Not only does the multi-modal corridor link Denver and Boulder, Aldretti said is also connects the communities in between to employment, education, recreation and housing choices.

“The corridor strives to be a model of innovation and creativity while promoting sustainable practices focused on economic development, environmental conservation and social equity,” he said. “With stunning views of the Flatirons, a strong local economy and a diverse mix of housing choices for a board demographic, the Northwest Corridor is truly unique.” Aldretti discussed the goals of the Northwest corridor which include maintaining a unique identity that highlights the long term commitment to the Northwest Rail while featuring US 36 BRT as the only BRT System in the Denver region and prioritizing improvement mobility for all corridor stakeholders. Other goals include: becoming a national model of transit oriented development in a multi-modal corridor, providing and enhancing access to employment centers, school,
educational institutions, retail, parks, open space, recreation and community resources and promoting a denser development near the stations to conserve resources, accommodate affordable housing choices and reduce the combined costs of transportation and housing. “To implement these goals, we want to conduct a corridor-wide market study and other studies like a walk-ability study and a corridor eco-pass study to identify ways to provide more affordable transit passes to residents in the area,” Aldretti said. “We also want to promote bicycling throughout the corridor by focusing on sufficient bike parking, accessibility to stations, bike share programs and coordination to housing areas.” For more information on the Northwest Corridor, visit http://drcog.org.
