BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COMWestminster resident Dale Taylor spent about ve minutes delivering his recyclables last week to the city’s just-opened Sustainability Center.
Greeting him was a small crew from SustainAbility Recycling, who helped Taylor bring his discards to a compactor that will eventually be sent to Republic Services for processing.
e process was quick, friendly, and clean. ere was no smell and no household garbage stu ed into recycling bins that people often dumped in the city’s four recycling centers, now set to close on June 1.
“In those places, people were dumping o stu they shouldn’t,” Taylor said. “Sometimes there was trash everywhere.”
“ is (the recycling center) is much better maintained,” he said.
e new Sustainability Center –which opened April 22 - is located at 6020 W. 91st Ave., a spot picked by the city because it is a 10-minute drive for 80% of Westminster residents.
Arvada-based SustainAbility Recycling is partnering with the city to manage the site and to help unload and process items for residents.
Patrons don’t need an appointment at the center. People can just go through a drive-up during business hours and a SustainAbility Recycling employee will greet them. Employees explain where items can be dropped o and how much it will cost, if anything, according to the city.
e convenience and the oversight from SustainAbility Recycling will make the facility more attractive to people who want to ensure their recyclables are disposed of properly and not dumped in a land ll, said Rachel Nathan, director of sustainability for SustainAbility Recycling.
“We are here to o er recycling for people but also to o er education and tips on the best ways to recycle,” Nathan said. “We’re not here to police anybody. We just want to make this a good experience for people.”
For single-stream recycling, patrons can drive up to the compactor and place items inside with the help – if needed – from the employees. e compactor will be emptied a few times a week and the contents sent to Republic Services.
Hard-to-recycle items will be accepted in a separate area, collected in containers, and brought inside at the end of the day, keeping the fa-
cility clean and organized, according to the city. e hard-to-recycle items will then be taken to various locations for processing.
People can drop o hard-to-recycle things, including electronics, paint, and Styrofoam in addition to single-stream recycling items such as cardboard, paper, plastic, aluminum, and glass.
Unwanted electronics will be sent to certi ed e-waste recyclers who will break down your items ethically without compromising any personal data left on the device. ose hard-to-recycle items could include a fee. Items such as bubble wrap, wine corks, corrugated plastic yard signs, plastic lms and plastic bags and other things can be recycled for $4 per bundle. ere are charges for larger items like mattresses and box springs, bicycles, re extinguishers, paint and plastics.
The Division of Real Estate’s HOA Information & Resource Center issued some useful advice last week which got me to thinking. It was advice on doing “due diligence” about a neighborhood’s HOA so you’re not blindsided after closing.
With over two decades of representing buyers in the purchase of homes, both with and without a homeowner’s association, I have lots more to suggest than was in that release.
I advise all buyers to look for neighbors who are outdoors, perhaps mowing their lawn, getting their mail, or washing their car in the driveway. Introduce yourself in a friendly manner, explain that your looking at that neighbor’s house which is for sale and would like to know how they like living in this neighborhood. Follow-up questions could include, “Are the homes built well? How’s the HOA? Are the neighbors friendly? Any complaints? Are the schools good? Is there much crime? By the way, do you know why the owners are selling that home?”
Don’t interrogate the poor fellow, but use your judgment in being as warm and conversational as possible. You’ll learn a lot that will serve you well if you end up buying that home. This is one task I want you to do yourself instead of me doing it for you as your agent.
Among the advice from the HOA Information & Resource Center was to request the covenants (or “CC&Rs”) from the county clerk and recorder. That
document is something I can get for you more easily (and free) from my contacts at any title company. I can also ask the listing agent for the covenants and other HOA documents, but keep in mind that one of the earliest deadlines in any contract to buy and sell a home is the “Record Title” deadline and the “Association Documents” deadline, along with an opportunity for you to object or terminate if you don’t like what you read.
The covenants are recorded, so they will come to you with the title documents. Just as important as the covenants, however, is how they are enforced by the HOA board and the management company hired by the board.
The most useful HOA documents are the minutes of the last six months’ board meeting and the most recent annual meeting. These minutes will let you know what issues may be bothering the members. (Hopefully, you learned many of those from interviewing neighbors, as suggested above.)
Those minutes will also give you a sense of the financial health of the HOA and whether a dues increase or special assessment might be under discussion.
Other documents for you to study are the financial statements, the budget for the coming year, and the most recent reserve study, which lets you know whether they have the financial reserves to deal with future repairs such as replacing the boundary fences, or fixing
Unless you’re a licensed broker with access to the MLS, the number of criteria on which you can search is very limited. Typically, consumer-facing websites only allow you to search for price range, city or county, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, square footage, and a few other criteria.
But virtually every MLS field is searchable if you ask an MLS member such as myself to do the search.
Schools are very important to parents, and I can define a search area by naming a particular elementary, middle school or high school.
North-facing driveways are a no-no for some buyers. I can specify “Not North” in that field.
Main-floor living is important to many seniors, and I can specify one-story homes or, my favorite, specify main -floor primary bedroom (or non-primary bedroom), thereby allowing for 2-story homes which have main-floor bedrooms.
Is having the laundry on the same floor as the primary bedroom or simply not in
the basement important to you? That can be specified too and it’s required that listings indicate which floor the laundry, bedrooms and bathrooms are on.
Do you want to see only those homes which aren’t in an HOA? Or maybe you want an HOA that includes exterior maintenance of the home. No problem.
I can also search for key words within the listing’s public remarks. I mentioned last week that I did a search for the phrase “outdoor kitchen” and found 67 such listings within 20 miles of downtown Denver. I can search for any word or phrase.
Searching by map is useful, and I can draw a line around a particular neighborhood or multiple non-contiguous neighborhoods in the same search.
I can search for homes with property taxes under a particular amount, or simply homes that do not have a Metropolitan Tax District with an additional tax levy.
The age of the home, 220V wiring in the garage, solar panels, type of heating and cooling all these and more can be searched, but only by an MLS member.
the common area amenities such as parks, playgrounds and trails.
In some cases, the listing agent may have obtained those HOA documents in advance. As your agent, even before submitting your offer, I can ask for them, first looking to see if they’re already posted as “supplements” on the MLS.
Sometimes the “Sellers Property Disclosure” is also posted on the MLS, but if not, I can request that document for you, then ask follow-up questions about items disclosed on it.
Every HOA in the state must be registered with the HOA Information & Resource Center. If they are not registered, they are unable to enforce the covenants or file a lien against a member who is delinquent on dues or fines.
The state legislature has not empowered the Center to license or otherwise regulate HOAs, including to receive and act on member complaints. It’s really quiet a sad situation. Even sadder is the condition of its registry of HOAs. I downloaded the Excel file and was shocked at the amount of duplication and errors in the data entry. See for yourself at the posting of this article at http://RealEstateToday.substack.com.
The link provided for finding a registered HOA takes you to the same form that is used for finding brokers and brokerages, so you enter the name (or part thereof) for the HOA you’re looking for, but it is very hit or miss when I tested it. Entering the ZIP code of the HOA in addition was useful. It also shows if the HOA’s license is expired, which was the case for one I looked up. The phone number was for the clubhouse and a random HOA member picked up. I had to find an HOA document in order to get the number for the contact person. Ugh!
ChatGPT has leveled the playing field for real estate agents. As in most professions, 90% of us aren’t good writers or even spellers! Ask ChatGPT to rewrite a property description or newsletter, and it will do so in flawless English with flawless spelling and flawless grammar, which got me thinking about scammers. Scam texts and emails can often be identified by their poor English and spelling, but if the scammer uses ChatGPT, that red flag will no longer be present.
Every year we have to be more and more alert for possible scams.

District says the Latin Honors system o ers more academic choices for students
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COMGilkah Argueta is the last of her kind.
e small but resolute 17-year-old is the nal valedictorian to graduate from Northglenn High School. Argueta joins all other valedictorians in the 2023-24 graduating classes in the Adams 12 Five Star Schools to march into history when they received their diplomas in May.
e district says the shift to Lat-
in honors system allows students to take more challenging courses without worrying their grade point averages would be dragged down in the process.
Argueta understands the district’s point. She also knows pursuing the singular valedictorian honor can put undue pressure on students.
Still, Argueta said her drive to get top grades was her decision alone and she’s proud of her accomplishment. She never felt pushed by her parents, teachers or peers to be valedictorian.
“I only took classes I knew I was going to like,” said Argueta, who won a Boetcher Scholarship to attend the University of Denver. She hopes one day to become an oncologist to help in the battle against cancer.
Gov. Jared Polis this week struck a long-awaited blow for environmental justice in Colorado, say lawmakers who ushered HB24-1338 into law.
Polis on Tuesday signed the new law which aims to tackle pollution problem spots that long have dogged communities of color in the state, said the bill sponsors.
e bill directs the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment - the CDPHE – to execute recommendations from the Environmental Justice Action Task Force, created by HB21-1266.
State Rep. Manny Rutinel – DCommerce City - was one of the bill’s sponsors. He said via a news release that the legislation is a key rst step in righting environmental wrongs in the state.
“Everyone has the right to clean air and environment for themselves and their families,” Rutinel said in the news release. “For nearly a year, the Environmental Justice Action Task Force met with community members and collected data-driven information to create a comprehensive checklist to clean up our air and support communities disproportionately impacted by environmental pollution.”
e new law implements key task force recommendations, including increased oversight of known polluters, like re neries, and better response time to community air pollution complaints, Rutinel said.
“By diving deeper into the cumulative impacts of environmental injustice, we can create policy that addresses the pollution negatively a ecting our neighbors of color and low-income neighbors,” he said.
State. Rep. Elizabeth Velasco – DGlenwood Springs - said all Coloradans need help ghting environmental problems.
“We owe it to our neighbors to implement the recommendations of the Environmental Justice Action Task Force to clean up our air, take air pollution complaints seriously and combat long-standing environmental injustices,” Velasco said in the news release.
“Environmental justice is a statewide issue, and we all deserve access to clean air and water. Our new law implements the task force recommendations to help our neighbors most a ected by poor air quality lead healthy lives,” she said.
HB24-1338 will, according to its legislative sponsors will:
Increase oversight of petroleum re neries. e law would fund the hiring of an expert in air pollution control for petroleum re neries. is expert would assess gaps in public health protections and identify the best regulatory tools to ll those gaps. e law would also require re neries to provide
near real-time emissions monitoring and compliance data. Improve response to air pollution complaints. e department’s Air Pollution Control Division would house a new rapid response inspection team to support quicker responses to air pollution complaints by impacted communities. Analyze the cumulative impacts of pollution. e law would implement recommendations of the Environmental Justice Action Task Force by formally establishing and authorizing the creation of at least two Environmental Equity and Cumulative Impact Analyses to analyze the cumulative
air, water, soil, and demographic impacts in speci c disproportionately impacted communities
Founded in 2021 through HB211266, the Environmental Justice Action Task Force hosted several in-person meetings and gatherings with Coloradans in Commerce City, Grand Junction, Greeley, and Pueblo in addition to receiving more than 300 written comments and survey responses, according to the news release.
e task force provided its nal recommendations to Governor Polis, the legislature and the CDPHE in 2022.

High winds carry plutonium-laden dirt from former weapons plant to filters on Indiana Street, experts say
BY RYLEE DUNN RDUNN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COMA recent discovery of plutonium in air lters on Indiana Street near Rocky Flats has given Boulder County Commissioners pause as they appear to reconsider involvement in the
Rocky Mountain Greenway Project trail system.
e Greenway project began in 2016 as an e ort to connect three National Wildlife Refuges — Rocky Mountain Arsenal, Two Ponds and Rocky Flats — through an interconnected trail system.
e project calls for the installation of an underpass connecting Rocky Flats to Boulder Open Space through the Rock Creek Corridor and an overpass to connect Westminster trails to the Greenway.
When gale-force winds hit on April 6, chemist and DU Professor Michael Ketterer and retired FBI agent Jon Lipsky — who led the 1989 raid of Rocky Flats that eventually led to the
plant being shut down and designated as an EPA Superfund site — set up air lters in three locations nearby to conduct a study on the contaminated soil’s activities in high winds.
Ketterer said he has taken air lter samples near Rocky Flats a handful of times, but that the high wind event of April 6 drew special interest because dirt was visibly moving in the air.
“We both observed large, rapidly moving suspended dust clouds extending from ground level up to heights of hundreds of feet, originating from areas on the (Central Operating Unit of Rocky Flats) and/or contaminated bu er zone,” Ketterer said in an a davit written after collecting the samples.
Two samples were collected along Indiana Street while high winds were blowing from the west. Ketterer sent the samples to the radiochemistry lab at Northern Arizona University, where scientists used mass spectrology to study the lters.
“Plutonium was unequivocally detected in the two Indiana Street air lters,” a statement from Ketterer said. “With less than 30 minutes sample collection time, quantities ranging from 47 to 128 milligrams of lter ash were recovered from air lters; plutonium was detected in all six of the individual preparations of ash from the two Indiana Street samples.”
Erick Alan Dahl takes over position amid controversy over airport operations
BY MONTE WHALEY MWHALEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COMErick Alan Dahl - a 20-year veteran of aviation management and operations – will take over as the new director of Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport on June 17.
Dahl’s hiring also ushers in a new management structure for the airport, which has attracted critics and a lawsuit over its operations.
Dahl is replacing Paul Anslow who left in November after calling out neighbors of the airport in comments that were later disclosed to county o cials.
Anslow termed people critical of airport operations “nut jobs” and dismissed their worries about airport noise, according to a 2021 transcript of a private conversation given to KUNC News as part of a public records request.
A Je erson County news release states that with two decades of experience in aviation management and operations, Dahl plans to lead RMMA with a strong focus on community and stakeholder engagement.
Je erson County hired ADA Consulting to conduct a search for Anslow’s replacement and produced 41 applicants for the roughly $150,000 per year job. Dahl was among three nalists for the director’s job.
roughout his career, Dahl has held roles as an Aeronautical Analyst at the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency and Airport Director at St. Louis Downtown Airport. He has expertise in operations, planning and construction, information technology, and community engagement.
“It is my privilege to serve as Airport Director at Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport,” Dahl stated
in the news release. “I am eager to leverage my experience to enhance e ciency, strengthen community relationships, and ensure the airport continues to serve as a pivotal resource in the region.”
Dahl has been recognized for leading multimillion-dollar airport development projects and integrating technology into airport operations. He has also led major initiatives to coordinate with community interests on aircraft noise abatement, runway/taxiway construction, wildlife determinants, and nancial stability, the news release states.
He is a licensed pilot and a member of the American Association of Airport Executives.
Controversy and lawsuits
Neighbors of the Broom eldbased general aviation airport claim the facility’s rapid growth and its piston-powered air tra c have led to intolerable noise and dangerous pollution from the lead fuel used by its aircraft.

Westminster Dems favor Alamo union push
House District 29 of the Colorado Democratic Party, spanning parts of both Je erson and Adams Counties, announced its support May 15 for the Alamo Drafthouse Collective in its efforts to form a union and negotiate a contract with the Westminster Alamo Drafthouse management.
Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas has three in the Greater Denver area, one of which falls within House District 29 in Westminster. Employees report having become increasingly frustrated with working conditions as corporate policy has overtaken the autonomy they say individual locations once had.
Director of Hyland Hills, “It has been an honor to help so many families make unforgettable memories, and we are grateful to be recognized on the national level.”
Broomfield company donates to Food Bank of the Rockies
Swisslog Healthcare, a global industry leader in pharmacy and transport automation solutions, held a food drive in April for National Volunteer Month bene ting the Food Bank of the Rockies. e company collected 874 pounds of food, nearly 700 items, at its headquarters in Broom eld.
Last year, Swisslog Healthcare collected and donated more than 300 pounds of food to A Precious Child, an organization dedicated to serving local children and families. is year’s food drive nearly tripled previous e orts.
“Democrats are great supporters of union movements, and this is an example of poor treatment of labor on our very doorstep here in Westminster,” said Tom Jurgens, District 29 party chair. “We will show our support for this organizing activity and trust that management will agree to negotiate with the Collective to produce a better result for the company, its employees and the city it calls home.”

The lack of civility at city council meetings re ects a concerning pattern in some council meetings. e City Councils of ornton and Westminster in particular are experiencing increased harsh words and negative tone of voice by citizens who come to speak.
Too often, it is the nay-sayers who come to express their opposition or disagreement with what the city is doing on higher pro le issues. Certainly, the Westminster City Council has had its share of uncivil remarks, gestures at times and even threats. Now, it seems that some of the council is conducting themselves in the same manner. At a recent study session involving a presentation and discussion on Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (RMMA) issues, council members chose to “unload” on the two sta representatives making the presentation. e two were invited along with Jefferson County Commissioner Tracy Kraft- arp to come and present on current projects and issues at the airport.
One city council member chose to lecture the two sta ers and blamed RMMA for creating terrible circumstances to families living in the area. I am aware of the noise and leaded fuel issues, which residents are justi ed in discussing and seeking solutions in public forums.
e study session was to provide the opportunity to brief the city council on a number of topics. Included in their presentation was an update on hiring a new Airport Manager, airport master planning, capital improvements, forming a new group of stakeholders to address airport issues and to update on what is happening on noise issues and unleaded fuel concerns. e airport has been moving ahead on both issues.
Like the old adage goes, “there is a time and place for everything.” e study session presentation was not the time or place to lecture the two sta people there who were simply doing their jobs. A higher level of decorum and civility is needed by the public and our elected o cials.
fancy vacations.
With a tight schedule facing the city council to put a proposed City Charter Amendment question on the November ballot, the council acted quickly in appointing members to this committee.
e committee is charged with recommending the number of wards and how many council members should be elected from each ward.
Each council member was to appoint one member to the committee. e members appointed are Dino Valente (McNally), Bev Bishop (Carmelia), Bill Christopher (DeMott), Annie Miller (Ezeadi), Tom Jurgens (Hott), Anita Seitz (Nurmela) and Elyce Jarvis (Ireland).
In addition, there will be non-voting sta members from the City Attorney’s O ce and City Clerk’s Ofce on the committee. City Council previously contracted with Pam Anderson of Consilium Colorado, who has extensive election experience, to facilitate and provide expertise on elections and districting. e committee is to do their work in June and July and produce its recommendations to city council.
Now, the work begins. It’s exciting to see this endeavor start to take shape given the years which some of us have championed some type of ward/at-large system to elect city council members which can provide better communications to constituents and create a sense of “my council member” relationships. e city has outgrown the all atlarge approach in my opinion.
Supreme Court Justice Alito and his flag
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. looks like he has a bad habit. It’s one that can get a U.S. Supreme Court Justice in trouble, just like Justice Clarence omas’ bad habit of letting wealthy people take he and his wife Ginni on expensive,
Twice it appears that Alito has own ags at his homes which have highly suggestive political messages. In columnist Jennifer Rubin’s column of May 26th, the message projected by Alito “harbors an a nity for an antidemocratic group that de nes the United States as a White Christian country, repudiates the division between law and Christian dogma and views the United States as under siege from secular forces. At the very least it suggests the appearance of such partiality.”
Judges at all levels of the judicial system and ESPECIALLY at the U.S. Supreme Court level should not only be impartial, but also demonstrate it. e rst ag own upsidedown at his home is identi ed with the January 6 insurrectionists shortly after the U.S. Capitol was under siege.
Most recently, the “Appeal to Heaven” ag was own over another of his homes which was carried by the rioters at the Capitol on January 6. Also, this ag has become a symbol of support for former President Donald Trump for a religious stand of the “Stop the Steal” campaign.
At rst blush, it looks like it’s not Alito’s doing but it’s his wife whois the ag lover, according to the Justice.
Still, don’t such public acts warrant investigation by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court as well as the appropriate Congressional committee?
U.S. Senator Dick Durbin is Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee which is responsible for any action involving members of the Supreme Court. When the rst ag incident occurred, he blew it o with “I don’t think there’s much to be gained with a hearing at this point.”
After the second ag episode recently, he changed his tune with “ is incident is yet another example of apparent ethical misconduct by a sitting justice, and it adds to the Court’s ongoing ethical crisis. Justice Alito must recuse himself
immediately from cases related to the 2020 election and the January 6 insurrection.”
Alito rejects the idea.
Chairman Durbin acknowledged that his committee is overdue to process the pending bill entitled Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal and Transparency Act. It has been over a year since the bill was drafted by the committee. Without authorization via this legislation, hearings on justices’ alleged wrong doings cannot take place. Both Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and others should prod Durbin into action and establish the mechanism to bring both Alito and omas before the committee for investigation to clear the air.
Thornton Council distributes assistance funds to non-profits
Most larger Colorado cities provide funding to non-pro ts which render needed services in their respective communities. Often times these services would otherwise fall to the city to provide if it weren’t for the non-pro t organizations.
e City of ornton established a $300,000 budget for this purpose in their 2024 City Budget. e council works o recommendations from the ornton Assistance Fund Committee which does the leg work on researching each applicant and their applicability to serve families in need.
Re ecting the growing current need to provide basic needs, the council awarded funds in four categories: housing, food, health/medical and human services.
Funds under the Housing category went to two organizations that totaled $30,000. Ten Food category organizations received a total of $100,000. Under the Health/Medical category, six non-pro ts divided $63,000. A total of $107,000 was distributed among ten providers. ornton has utilized this practice since 1983 to address basic needs of families in its community.

To some Wyoming politicos, the Biden administration coal-leasing announcement was evidence of humanity’s descent to hell in a handbasket. Some in the environmental community were moved to hallelujahs. e Bureau of Land Management recently said it would cease issuing new permits for mining coal in the Powder River Basin. It was a decision without consequence. Demand for coal has been sliding since 2008, and the slide will almost certainly accelerate.
Mining companies in the Powder River can continue mining their existing leases at the current rate of extraction until 2041 without exhausting them, according to the analysis by the BLM. ey’re unlikely to do so. Just consider the market for Powder River coal in Colorado. Coal plants along the Front Range mostly if not entirely burn coal from the Powder River Basin. Two units,

On a personal note
My wife Ann and I are “grandparent proud.” We just returned from Boerne, Texas (outside of San Antonio) where we attended our youngest granddaughter’s and last grandchild’s high school graduation. Some of you will recall we went with our daughter Heather and family to China to meet and bring home Savannah Austin at age ve. After a rough start, she blossomed into a very caring and thoughtful young woman. She excelled in high school especially in her German studies and graduated Magna Cum Laude. She will be attending Grand Canyon

Coal’s decline started long before Jared Polis became governor of Colorado in 2019 and Joe Biden was elected president in 2020. Both have shepherded policies that take climate change seriously, but the shift from coal was already well underway.
Donald Trump, when campaigning in 2016, pledged to bring back
University.
We are so proud of her especially regarding her compassion for others, her Christian beliefs and her positive outlook on life. Her class’s graduation was at 8 p.m. at the football stadium because of the heat. A mere 90-plus degrees, high humidity and no breeze was the setting for this bittersweet event.
What was especially heartwarming was the obvious camaraderie on the football eld between teachers and students. Living in a smaller community has its advantages.
e nal traditional graduation bittersweet event was for the graduated seniors to walk around the football track accepting the shout-outs, waves and love from the stadium crowd.
It was a tting completion to not only Savannah’s graduation, but our other three “grands” who had gone before her.

When Jacques Hennig’s Australian shepherd mix Alex collapsed at the park in January 2024, he knew it was time to say goodbye.
“It’s a feeling in your gut; I knew immediately the cancer had come back,” he said.
He also knew how Alex would die: at home, with Hennig and his partner Max Donald by his side. A year earlier, the couple had used in-home euthanasia for their other dog, Oliver.
“It’s a horrible thing to have to deal with,” Hennig said. “You don’t want them to ever go; you want them to be with you forever. But it was important to me they were happy in death as well. I didn’t want their last vision to be the vet with uorescent lighting and lots of noise.”
Veterinarian H Howells, who performed the service for both Alex and Oliver through her company Peace Wings, is among a subset of veterinarians who o er in-home euthanasia. ese mobile veterinarians come to the pet owner’s residence, where they administer medication so the pet can pass in their home, surrounded by their owners and often, other family pets.
In-home euthanasia is a fastgrowing service, with a network of veterinarians that includes local, independent doctors like Howells, Conifer-based Amy Holtschlag and Franktown-based Julie Hasenfratz of Hometown Veterinary Hospice, as well as national companies like Lap of Love that employ a network of doctors.
As in a clinic setting, veterinarians performing in-home euthanasia typically use two medications: one to sedate the pet, and a second that stops the heart. Some vets also
use oxygen to help the pets relax further.
While fees vary, the service costs more than an in-clinic euthanasia service. e personalized nature of the service, time spent with each client and transportation costs are all factors in setting prices, veterinarians said.
e three veterinarians who spoke for this story charge between $350 and $775, their rates varying with the type and size of animal and the services included. Some charge separately for cremation, urns, memorial keepsakes and other items and services, while others include it in a at fee.
‘The last act of love’
Many pet owners say it’s worth it, and the best way they’ve found to close the nal chapter in a beloved pet’s life.
When Commerce City residents
John and Jan Leiker adopted their Great Dane Kiara, John Leiker said she was an aggressive, poorly socialized, “out-of-control” rescue.
ey spent two years training and loving her, “to turn her into the wonderful Great Dane that she was. She had a wonderful life.”
Giving her a peaceful ending was their nal act of caring, and Hasenfratz helped them give her that.
“Dr. Hasenfratz took her time and let us know everything she was doing, every step of the way,” Leiker said. “She just sat down with Kiara petting her, letting her sni everything. She gave her the proper drug to just relax.
“You still cry when they go; it’s never easy. But this is so much easier on the people and the animals. It’s the last act of love you can do. I will always do it this way if pos-
sible.”
Hasenfratz also o ered the couple a memorial paw print with Kiara’s name imprinted on it, which the couple treasures.
“When it’s time for our current Dane to go, Julie will be the one we’ll call,” his wife Jan agreed.
Despite the pain of loss that accompanies an in-home euthanasia, owners describe the service as personal, intimate and soothing. And most veterinarians say they work hard to make it that way.
“People have a lot of anxiety around this decision,” Holtschlag said. “And pets are often not relaxed when they come to the vet clinic; there’s that innate panic they have coming through the doors. at fear is not there when they’re home with their people.
“I want the experience to be as peaceful as it can be for both the pet and the people, and a memory the owners can cherish going forward,” Holtschlag continued.
Holtschlag treats each appointment as its own service.
“I usually do a little information gathering before I get there,” she said. “I have the family tell me if they have any special requests or wishes, and who is going to be there. ere are things we can do at home we’re not able to do in a clinic to make it meaningful for them; they can set up the experience the way they want it to go.
“When I get there, I spend a lot of time going through what will happen, explaining the process so they know what they’re going to see. ey can hold their pet, or be right next to them throughout.”
In December 2023, Holtschlag helped Evergreen residents John and Sue Dunlop say goodbye to their 10-year-old standard poodle Reggie, who’d su ered a series of debilitating seizures. Dunlop described Holtschlag and her assistant as patient, respectful and “very compassionate.”
“While it was heartbreaking, it
was great that he was here in our house, in a place he was comfortable,” John Dunlop said. “It was easier on us, too, because we didn’t have to walk out of the vet’s o ce and leave our (deceased) pet behind.
“We’ve been down this road before, and this was so much more comforting. ere’s no easy way. But in our mind, it was the most compassionate thing we could do.”
After Reggie passed, John Dunlop brought his other standard poodle Cooper into the room to see the body — an act that would have been more challenging at a clinic.
“We hoped it would give him some knowledge of what’s going on,” he said. “Who knows what they think. But for my peace of mind, I’d like to think he understood.”
e Dunlops opted to have Reggie cremated and plan to spread his ashes on their property.
“I would do it again,” John Dunlop said. “We’ve had pets euthanized in a vet’s o ce and they were also compassionate and doing the best they can, but it’s not the same. It’s not like being at home.”
Veterinarians who provide the service can also guide pet owners in making end-of-life decisions.
“When a pet has a slow-moving illness or a long decline, the owners have a choice in the matter,” Howells said. “When they call me, a lot of them are struggling with the timing. If I wait too long, I’ve been sel sh. If I do it too soon, I haven’t been patient enough. e big question that’s underlying that is, ‘Am I killing my pet?’
“ e answer is no. Cancer is killing your pet. Kidney disease is killing your pet. eir pets are dying anyway,” Howells continued. “When people can ip that switch, it gives them and me peace. ey’re no longer making a life-and-death decision; biology has already made it. In all reality, at-home euthanasia is a happy ending. In many cases, they’ve lived a long life, and they’re in the home in which they’ve been cherished.”
Hasenfratz also provides such consultations and said she understands the struggle pet owners undergo. She tries to emphasize that
death is not just inevitable, but natural. And while you can’t keep it from happening, you can sometimes control the circumstances that surround it.
“I lost my mom in hospice care, and that’s when I started realizing how important it is to be home — not just for the patient but the family,” she said. “Saying goodbye is a natural part of living. If we can pass away as comfortably as possible, I think that’s what we all would want.
“I feel very good about what I do because I end struggles,” she continued. “I give the pet a peaceful passing, and I give that peace to their human family too.”
Because the service is so personal, the bonds extend beyond owners and pets to the veterinarian as well. Hennig and Donald chose Howells for Alex because she had previously done the same service for their dog Oliver. e moment Howells and Oliver met is still vivid in Hennig’s memory.
“Oliver used to come over at every meal and lean on you with his forehead; we found out years later that’s a way they bond or say thank you,” he said. “When Dr. H came in for his appointment, she was sitting on the oor, getting her supplies out. Oliver could hardly walk, but he went over to her and pressed his forehead into hers. And I thought, ‘ is is OK.’”
There are so many reasons
Charles M. Schulz’s “Peanuts” comic strip is the gold standard for the medium. It has a lot to do with the characters he created and the relatability of their lives, but sometimes it’s just fun to watch Snoopy get lost in his imagination.
For its summer family exhibit, Wings Over the Rockies is partnering with the world’s favorite beagle to teach about World War I aviation and the power of creativity with its“Snoopy and the Red Baron” exhibition.
e show opens at the Air & Space Museum, 7711 E. Academy Blvd. in Denver, on Sunday, June 8, and runs through Sunday, Sept. 1.
“My whole career in aviation came from building models, and the rst model I built was the Sopwith Camel
I remember seeing in ‘It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.’ It all started for me with Snoopy and the Red Baron,” said Stewart Bailey, the museum’s curator.
“I think this exhibit is going to be a great opportunity to showcase the museum to audi-
ences that don’t ordinarily visit us.”
e traveling exhibit features about 38 large comic panels of Snoopy as the World War I Flying Ace, and will also include other collectible items featuring the famous beagle. e show is a rare chance to get people thinking about the role pilots played in the rst World War, pilots who of-
ten don’t receive the same attention as World War II aviators.
“We’re using our World War I exhibit to supplement the Snoopy one and will be able to talk about things like rotary and radial engines, and a lot more,” Bailey said. “ at time period was an era of big, rapid change for aviation. It was just 11 years after the Wright Brothers, but planes had already become a big power on the military side.”
By using a popular character like Snoopy, the serious topic of air warfare can be more easily approached by the curious. And it also fosters exploration and discovery about a time more than 100 years ago when the world was still learning how to use planes in battle.
In addition to educating, the exhibit is a great occasion to celebrate the scope and importance of imagination.

The Dream of the 90’s is Alive in Highlands Ranch ere’s something about the music from the 90’s that never seems to get old. I have no idea what it is, but so many of the songs have a staying power that those of us who were there at the time couldn’t have anticipated. All of this to say, Highlands Ranch’s Summer Concert Series featuring Nothing But the Nineties from 6:30 to 8 p.m. on ursday, June 6, will be an absolute blast of the evening.
“If you think about it, the real ‘Zen of Snoopy’ is that if you can imagine it, you can do it,” Bailey said. “It’s a really fun and grand exhibit because the whole point is to encourage people to dare to dream.”

And then move them out of state
BY JASON BLEVINS THE COLORADO SUNirty years ago in a Boulder garage, Bruce “Bruno” McGowan and Bruce “Edge” Edgerly minted their rst Alpine Trekker, a clunky contraption that enabled skiers to skin uphill in alpine boots and bindings. As their Backcountry Access Alpine Trekker sold, they moved into a dark o ce on North Broadway, next to Boulder’s only strip club, where there was an executed search warrant on the oor and a car on blocks in the back room. When McGowan and Edgerly launched BCA’s Tracker DTS avalanche transceiver in the late 1990s
— revolutionizing avalanche safety with the world’s rst digital, multiple antennae beacon — they moved to a new Boulder o ce where they would anchor the launch of the company’s equally game-changing Float avalanche airbag line in 2010.
Ski industry titan K2 Sports acquired BCA in 2013, taking over some administrative tasks while engineering, design and marketing for its avalanche safety gear remained in Boulder. K2 Sports owner Jared Corp. sold to Newell Brands for $16 billion in 2015. Newell sold its winter brands — K2, Line, Volkl, Marker and BCA — in 2017 to private equity rm Kohlberg and Co. for $240 million.
And now, K2 is corralling its operations in Washington and BCA is leaving Boulder.
“We’ve been suspecting this for about 10 years,” said Edgerly, who two years ago moved away from daily operations to serve as a BCA brand ambassador focusing on how BCA tools can improve safety in avalanche terrain. “One of the main reasons to be in the outdoor industry is to have a fun work environment with likeminded people and to be involved in developing and testing prototypes and being hands-on with products. All that is going away, so it appears my dream career is kind of starting to dissipate, which is heartbreaking but inevitable, you know.”
BCA is not alone in leaving Colorado. QuietKat, an electric bike company founded by brothers Jake and Justin Roach in Eagle, quickly pulled up stakes and moved to California as part of a corporate reshu ing. Bikemaker Niner Bikes has left its longtime headquarters in Fort Collins. Denver’s Guerilla Gravity has shut down its bike factory and closed its unique carbon manufacturing business.
As Colorado’s outdoor recreation industry matures and draws investment from heavyweight outsiders, part of that growth includes reshufing, consolidation and new corporate strategies that can pull thriving businesses out of the state.
“ ere is always talk of quoteunquote ‘synergies’ and ‘leveraging xed assets’ and other buzzwords that look good in PowerPoint decks,” Edgerly said. “I have not really seen any of that out of this acquisition but you never know. About two years ago, we really started to see some corporate ngers getting into BCA’s operations.”
At one point BCA had 50 employees in Boulder. When K2 took over, that dropped to about 35. ere were about 15 when the company announced last month it would be consolidating its operations in a new headquarters outside Seattle. K2 has asked that about six BCA workers — all the electrical engineers who helped design the company’s airbag packs and transceivers — make the move to Washington.
It’s a result of BCA shifting production from China to a circuit-board manufacturer in Washington. All the assembly, testing, calibration and packaging of the company’s Tracker 4 avalanche beacons — which used
to be done in Boulder — will now be done in Washington, near K2’s headquarters.
“ ey wanted the engineering team to be closer to manufacturing, which is mandatory really,” Edgerly said.
Guerrilla Gravity closes shop e founders of Guerrilla Gravity, Matt Giara a and Will Montague, spent 12 years innovating a new American-made modular frame and then a rst-of-its-kind carbon manufacturing process for bikes, all from a bustling shop in Denver. e company quietly closed in September.
Cycling newsroom Pink Bike reported that investors in the company decided to pull out and shut down the bike-maker.
It appeared last fall that company’s parent, Revved Industries, remained intact after the closure of Guerrilla Gravity, o ering its innovative carbon ber technology and manufacturing process to the cycling and other industries.
Revved in February 2020 o ered investors shares of Revved Industries, o ering $3.2 million in equity shares and selling $2.2 million. In December, Revved auctioned its manufacturing equipment after a bankruptcy ling.
Guerrilla Gravy co-founder Giaraffa last fall posted on LinkedIn that he was leaving the company after “introducing the rst modern thermoplastic/carbon ber composite manufacturing to the mountain bike industry, growing from just a couple of us to a pretty large crew.”
“I’m super proud of what we have accomplished, the relationships created, friends made, challenges gured out, machines built, and products made,” Giara a wrote. “Like all things, eventually it’s time to move along, see others carry on the torch.” Giara a declined to speak about the closure of Guerrilla Gravity. e engineer landed at Supertramp Campers in Golden, helping to design and build a new overland camper.
“ e company has a lot of similarities to Guerrilla Gravity,” he told e Sun.
In December, Niner Bikes announced it was leaving its 13-year headquarters in Fort Collins for Ohio as part of a consolidation by Niner owner United Wheels, the owner of Hu y brand bikes.
United Wheels, a division of Hong Kong-based investment company
Covation Holdings Ltd., bought Niner out of bankruptcy in 2018. Niner was founded in California in 2004 and helped prove the e ciency and validity of 29-inch wheels for mountain bikes and recently began making high-end, carbon- ber electric mountain bikes.
Justin and Jake Roach founded QuietKat in 2012 with a plan to help hunters get deeper into the backcountry with agile but powerful electric mountain bikes. By 2014 the
brothers were selling their e-bikes to all sorts of riders, emerging as a top brand in the growing industry. In 2021 they had almost 50 employees and sales were exploding, up 145% in 2020 compared with 2019.
Vista Outdoor Inc., a Minnesota-based conglomerate that owns diverse outdoor brands including CamelBak, Bell, Giro Simms, Remington and Camp Chef, acquired QuietKat in 2021 in for an undisclosed price. e company recently announced plans to create a standalone public company — Revelyst — with 15 of its biking and hunting brands. e restructuring moves brands like CamelBak, Bell, Giro and QuietKat into the headquarters of Fox Racing in Irvine, California, and a warehouse in Kansas City, while other brands shift to Boze-
man, Montana, and San Diego.
“It was a quick move,” said Jake Roach, whose last day with QuietKat was April 1.
Keeping companies anchored in small communities as they are acquired or consolidated “can be challenging but not impossible,” said Chris Romer with the Vail Valley Partnership.
While resort communities can nurture entrepreneurs with investment in workforce training and support systems, Romer says the ght to keep businesses local is a perpetual challenge as housing prices soar and rural supply chain issues spike costs.
all ecosystem supporting rural entrepreneurs in the state. e outdoor industry is seeing challenges as it emerges from the banner years of the pandemic. Outdoors businesses across the country are tightening budgets and consolidating operations and “some of our rural Colorado outdoor success stories are caught up in this current,” Cory Finney said.
“Sure, they may have had more say of where operations are when they were private, but the reality is that most outdoor companies right now are focused on survival,” he said.
But the rural Colorado entrepreneurial landscape is vibrant, Finney said.
“Our focus needs to remain on building a culture that supports our outdoor recreation economy and our small businesses, and to continue to support those with an emotional connection to our communities,” Romer said. “Because the nancial bottom line will almost always be better when consolidated, but the brand alignment and emotional connection with community might never be.”
Cory and Jamie Finney’s Greater Colorado Venture Fund has invested $44.5 million in 37 rural Colorado startup companies, helping to support entrepreneurs beyond the Front Range, including QuietKat. e Finneys are quick to make sure to not blend the outdoor industry, Colorado rural startups in the outdoor industry and the over-

We are still seeing businesses being created at a consistent if not increased pace,” Finney said, noting that the Greater Colorado Venture Fund anticipates investments in another 15 to 20 businesses in the next few years. “ e opportunity set remains strong. It is natural for companies to go through life cycles, but the constant is that the founders have chosen rural Colorado as home and will start their next venture in their community.”

“clean, beautiful coal.” He did nothing of the sort. Coal jobs declined 24% during the Trump presidency. And 60 coal companies declared bankruptcy between 2012 and 2020. Among them were Arch and Peabody, two major operators in the Powder River Basin who also have operations in Colorado.
To help make sense of Wyoming’s path forward, I called a resident of Cheyenne, Larry Wolfe, who is retired now but for 30 years represented coal companies. “If you are going to be realistic about this, you have to look at some of these coal companies,” he told me. “ ey’re not great companies anymore. ey used to be — Peabody and Arch and a couple of others. ey are not anymore.”
I had noticed Wolfe’s response to the statement of Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso, who called the leas-
40 West Arts Celebrates Arts and Pride
Lakewood’s 40 West Arts District is o cially welcoming summer
ing decision part of Biden’s war on Wyoming. “ is will kill jobs and could cost Wyoming hundreds of millions of dollars used to pay for public schools, roads, and other essential services in our community,” Barrasso said. “Cutting o access to our strongest resource surrenders America’s great economic advantage – to continue producing a ordable, abundant, and reliable American energy.”
Wyoming’s two other delegates in Congress echoed him: e United States will become dependent on energy from other countries. is will create more pollution in other countries who don’t have access to Wyoming’s clean coal. And so forth.
Environmental groups were supportive but restrained. “A monumental decision,” said Earthjustice. Individuals were more enthusiastic. Wow!” said one person in an e-mail chain.
Powder River Basin Resource Council attorney Shannon Anderson con rmed my instinct. “ is is a symbolically signi cant decision for
with the June Arts Crawl, held at galleries at spaces on West Colfax, from 6 to 9 p.m. on Friday, June 7. e evening will be particularly special, as it’s including Pride Month in its celebrations by working with Edgewater Pride. All gallery and studio spaces will be open to the public completely free of charge
the climate but in terms of practicality it means absolutely nothing,” she told me.
Anderson explained that unlike oil and gas leasing on federal lands, coal companies must ask for leases. In the past, they commonly did so adjacent to existing mines. Mining companies must initiate leasing action. None have not done so since 2012. Two pending leases have stalled since 2015, awaiting action by the companies.
Colorado for a couple years had the coal equivalent of man bites dog. A company had reopened a mine west of Trinidad. en it, too, closed. My research suggests limited coal mining in northwest Colorado beyond 2028, when the last power plant there closes. West Elk, near Paonia, the state’s largest producer, may last longer. It has reserves of 10 to 12 years at current rates of extraction.
Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon has made carbon capture and sequestration his initiative as chair this year of the Western Governors As-
sociation. He professes to believe carbon capture can prop up coal mining.
In Colorado, the Polis administration sees a more limited role for carbon capture, such as for sequestering emissions from ethanol plants. e Colorado Land Board seems to think this can constitute a revenue stream in years ahead. It has already leased lands near Yuma, Pueblo, and in Weld County.
In Cheyenne, the retired attorney Wolfe sees few of the active 14 coal mines continuing operations in years ahead and much greater use of automation. Railroads may want to rededicate equipment used to haul coal to other purposes. In short, he expects a cascading e ect for Powder River Basin coal.
For others, with a blind eye to easily available facts, it’s all Biden’s fault.

e concern surrounding Ketterer’s ndings, he says, is that if the Greenway is constructed, increased foot tra c will spread the contaminated soil to neighboring communities.
“ e more that people walk on the refuge, and the more land use that is taking place… undisturbed soil is pretty well protected against wind erosion, but once people and animals start walking on the development, then the erodibility, if you will, of the soil surface is going to greatly increase,” Ketterer said.
He added that this could mean more contaminated soil being transported o the refuge toward neighboring properties.
Radioactive plutonium is a material that is produced by nuclear reactors, and has been known to cause lung, bone and liver cancer in people exposed to it, according to the CDC.
e two isotopes of plutonium Ketterer found near Rocky Flats are 239 and 240, which have a “ ngerprint” that con rms they originated at the former nuclear weapons plant.
Now, Ketterer’s ndings are giving some governmental agencies pause about the construction of the Greenway Project, which calls for the Federal Highway Administration to install the underpass and overpass.
At an April 4 Boulder County Commissioners meeting, Lipsky warned county leaders of the dangers of building such structures on the site, referencing the Colorado State construction standard that forbids building when more than 0.9 picocuries per gram are found in soil.
Ketterer’s recent samples ranged from 0.15 to 1.19 picocuries per gram of plutonium.
“I have a couple concerns: there is going to be digging, and the stan-
dard at Rocky Flats changes dramatically, exponentially, when it goes below three feet,” Lipsky said. “If it goes below six feet, there is no standard, and there’s no consideration for the workers, no consideration for the residents, like Superior, that will be receiving contaminants from this digging.”
Ketterer also gave comment at the April 4 meeting and did not mince words in his caution to commissioners.
“Commissioners, it’s not a marvelous idea to dig up and disturb plutonium-contaminated soils,” Ketterer said. “It’s all very unsettling to me. Not only do the soils near Rocky Flats and the Indiana Street corridor have plutonium in them, but a lot of it is in these discreet particles… I think this whole area is generously sprinkled with that.
“Commissioners,” Ketterer continued, “Rocky Flats is just one of the unsettling places in the U.S. and the world that we should worry about plutonium at — there’s a whole mess of uncontained plutonium at the central operating unit (of Rocky Flats) buried under… and we’re seeing a few breadcrumbs on the surface.”
Boulder County entered into an intergovernmental agreement allowing the Greenway Project to move forward in 2016. On Jan. 30, commissioners voted to oppose public recreation at Rocky Flats, which does not impact the county’s place in the Greenway IGA.
e City of Arvada, City and County of Boulder, City and County of Broom eld, Je erson County, and the City of Westminster are all involved in the project.
e town of Superior sued over minor modi cations made to the trail plans in 2018, alleging that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service failed to perform a necessary environmental review before altering plans. In 2021, a federal judge ruled against Superior, stating that the federal gov-
ernment did not violate federal law.
Further legal action was brought in January when the advocacy group Physicians for Social Responsibility Colorado led a lawsuit that seeks to block construction of trails in and around Rocky Flats. at litigation is ongoing as of press time.
Ketterer said that at a May 16 Boulder County Commissioners meeting, commissioners resolved to seek legal advice around the future of the IGA. Commissioners Deputy of
Boulder County Natalie Springett con rmed that on May 29, an executive session on the topic of the Greenway IGA was held but was unable to give more information due to attorney-client privilege.
“ ey’re seeking legal advice,” Ketterer said. “And I think they want to know, what are the rami cations if they stay in the deal? Or if they leave, and the county is in a position, I think, where they have legal exposure either way.”

Boulder County and the Town of Superior are suing RMMA over increased “touch and go” operations that they claim are causing health and safety problems for residents living near the facility.

City o cials said the decision to consolidate the drop-o locations was vital for safety and to keep those areas clean.
roughout that time RMMA has improved the voluntary noise abatement procedures, introduced a procedure to request pilots use the primary runway during nighttime operations to avoid over ying residential neighborhoods, purchased a fuel truck to begin the transition to unleaded fuel, and secured funding from the Federal Aviation Administration for a Part 150 Airport Noise Compatibility Study, according to the news release.

Dick’s Sporting Goods Park hosts US team versus Korea
BY JIMMIE SEARFOSS SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIACalling all pro soccer fans: the U.S. Women’s National Team makes a stop at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park this weekend. e team will kick o the rst of a two-game friendly series against the Korea Republic on Saturday, June 1, at 3 p.m. e event is part of a spring schedule that takes the U.S. women’s team to various Major League Soccer stadiums nationwide.
After playing South Korea in Commerce City, they travel to St. Paul, Minnesota for the second game of the series. e team also has games in Ohio and Minnesota later this summer as they prepare for the 2024 Olympic Games. ough tickets are limited, matches are televised on TNT and NBC Universo and are available on the streaming services HBO Max and Peacock.
Leading the women from the sideline for the rst time is new USWNT Head Coach Emma Hayes, who will be tasked with keeping a 15-year streak alive.
“We have had a short amount of time with her so far, but in that short amount of time, she’s already taught us a lot,” forward Sophia Smith said. “She brings a new energy and new perspective and obviously a lot of experience. And I think we’re so lucky to have her.” is is not the USWNT’s rst trip to the Colorado Rapids’ home eld. e match marks the eighth time the women’s team has played at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park since 2008. In that time the women have never lost. e closest any team has come to defeating the USWNT in Commerce City came in 2016 when Japan tied the team 3-3.
It is a homecoming for three members of the squad. Forward Mallory Swanson and mid elder
Lindsey Horan grew up less than an hour from the stadium in Littleton and Golden. Smith hails from Windsor.
All three began their careers here and while they all attended local schools, Swanson spent the most time playing for her home colors. Swanson spent three years in a Mountain Vista High School jersey and was named the 2014–15 Gatorade National Girls Soccer Player of the Year.
“I think any time you get to come home and play in front of your family and friends, it’s always a good time,” Swanson said. “Colorado always brings a great crowd and there’s three of us that have grown
up playing here and so hopefully, we can keep inspiring young girls here in the community to achieve their goals.”
On the national stage, the Colorado women have made key contributions to their team’s success. Smith played a large role in the latest USWNT game against Canada in the 2024 SheBelieves Cup in April. She scored two goals in regulation, giving the U.S. the lead until Canada tied the match in the 86th minute. Smith then contributed another goal in the shootout after overtime, leading the USWNT to its seventh SheBelieves Cup win.
Previous USWNT stars like Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe have
left the roster, along with the longtime coach Jill Ellis, who led the team to back-to-back World Cup wins, ushering in a new era for the team. Hayes and the Colorado locals are leading the charge to keep the standard the same for the team.
“ is team for so many years has set the standard has been the best in the world, and that’s what we want to continue on,” Smith said. “We want to honor what this team has done before us but we also want to set new standards and just be a di erent version of this team and be the best in the world.”
Tickets to the upcoming friendly game are nearly sold out, with the last available at ussoccer.com.

But she admits the shift to a more broadly-based Latin system is probably easier on a student’s mental well-being.
“It’s a nice change in terms of mental health and competition,” said Argueta, who earned a “weighted” 4.3 GPA at Northglenn. “I de nitely had issues about my grades…I was kind of hard on myself.”
Starting with the graduating class of 2025, the district will transition to a Latin honors approach rather than selecting just one valedictorian and salutatorian from each school, according to a district news release.
District spokeswoman Alice Stice said the move to a Latin system was made largely because students wanted to take challenging courses that could drag down their chances of becoming valedictorians or salutatorians.
“I can tell you that our decision to shift to Latin honors was informed by feedback we heard from students
that pursuing the valedictorian or salutatorian title could lead them to bypass courses they might be interested in because it would negatively a ect their GPA, even if they earned the highest possible grade,” Stice said via email. is is especially true when it comes to “unweighted” classes, such as technical courses, visual and performing arts and other electives, Stice said.
Latin honors courses better align with colleges and universities and recognizes and incentivizes high performance for a greater percentage of students, she said. e district states that to earn a Latin Honor designation, students must have a cumulative GPA (calculated at the completion of rst semester of the senior year) of:
4.250 and above - Summa Cum Laude 4.000 - 4.249 - Magna Cum Laude 3.750 - 3.999 - Cum Laude
Other Adams County school districts are keeping the valedictorian designation for graduates, including Brighton 27J School District.
“We have valedictorians at every high school except 27J Online and Innovations and Options (our alternative high school),” said 27J

Outdated or woke?
Some high-pro le school districts in the state – including Boulder Valley and Cherry Creek -–have bagged the traditional valedictorian route.
At Cherry Creek, the valedictorian tag will be eliminated as of 2026. In a letter to parents, the district said the role of educators is to teach all students and not to rank and sort them.
“ e practices of class rank and Valedictorian status are outdated and inconsistent with what we know and believe of our students. We believe all students can learn at high levels, and learning is not a competition,” the letter states.
But the changes have been labeled as the latest example of liberal “woke” policies.
e Denver Post said in an op-ed piece, that ‘Cherry Creek schools [now] rede ne “valedictorian” as “mediocrity.”’
e Daily Mail newspaper was critical, too: “ e policy comes in an age where participation trophies

Northglenn’s Argueta said her friends and family o ered needed support which helped her keep her academic pursuits in perspective. She also said she enjoyed taking Advanced Placement courses in biology, calculus, biology and history on her way to her valedictorian title. Argueta said she never considered her striving to be a valedictorian as drudgery.
“I took those courses because I wanted to take them,” Argueta said. “I always liked school, I always liked homework. is something I wanted to do.”
She also sang in her church’s choir and went to football games with her friends. “I did regular stu and besides my studying, I really enjoyed singing,” she said.
