Man relishes second chance Quick response saves Art Cales after heart attack at fitness center

Classes continues on Page 22

Project to ease school traffic

By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Art Cales is one of the lucky few.

It took a series of fortunate circumstances to revive the 51-year-old when he had a sudden heart attack at Lifetime Fitness near E-470 and South Parker Road in January.

“They basically brought me back to life,” Cales said. “I was dead.”

“They” refers to the handful of people who rushed to his aid, including personal trainer Kate Jureller, 27, of Denver. It was around 6 a.m. when she was teaching a team weight-loss class and heard people yelling for help. An alert came over the intercom, and Jureller says she was the one who happened to grab the automated external defibrillator off the wall.

She and Kate Tillman, a physical therapist at Parker Adventist Hospital, performed CPR after finding that Cales was not breathing. His complexion was ashen and his lips were cold, said Jureller, who placed the AED pads on Cales’s chest. After detecting an abnormal heart rhythm, the machine administered two shocks, bringing Cales back after three minutes.

Ten minutes earlier, he was in a room by himself, beginning a first set of exercises designed to help him recover from rotator cuff surgery. He began to feel lightheaded, and, from a standing position, hit the floor with a solid impact. It got the attention of a nearby Lifetime Fitness patron, Mike Staheli, who alerted everyone to the trouble.

“The next thing I know, I’m looking up at people,” Cales said. “They were asking

The University of Colorado has announced an expansion plan that will transform The Wildlife Experience and higher education in Douglas County.

More than 7,400 square feet of exhibit space on the second floor of The Wildlife Experience, an education-and-conservation-focused museum on Lincoln Avenue east of Interstate 25, will be turned into classroom space. Nearly 4,000 square feet in the basement will house a simulation lab for nursing students.

The university, with assistance from its Denver and Anschutz campuses, is planning to offer a broad range of programs in business, addiction counseling, computer forensics, nursing and engineering. Classes are set to begin this fall and, at least in the beginning, will be aimed at professional audiences. There will be a balance of undergraduate and graduatelevel courses.

Don Elliman, chancellor of CU-Denver and the Anschutz Medical Campus, said museum officials proposed the idea of expansion to the university more than a year ago. Although it had not been considering a move into south metro Denver, university leaders “thought about it pretty seriously” and conducted a market assessment.

Todd Drive extension will cost $1.3 million

‘They basically brought me back to life. I was dead.’

— Art Cales, heart attack survivor me my name, but that was all I could remember.”

It turned out that every single one of his arteries was at least 50 percent blocked, some completely so. Blood had stopped flowing through his body. He went into surgery to remove the clots and is recovering well, although he reinjured his shoulder during the fall.

Sudden cardiac arrest struck nearly 360,000 people nationwide in 2013. For each minute defibrillation is delayed, the chance of survival is reduced approximately 10 percent, according to the American Red Cross. The CPR administered prior Life continues on Page 22

Parker and Douglas County are partnering on a road project that will improve traffic flow around American Academy Charter School.

The $1.3 million project will extend Todd Drive, connecting Motsenbocker Road with Jordan Road and adding another piece in the street grid to distribute traffic. The Town of Parker has already started design work, and if the necessary right of ways and easements are secured, construction could begin this year.

The Town of Parker unanimously approved a cost-sharing intergovernmental agreement Feb. 18 to build the asphalt road. Douglas County appropriated Project continues on Page 22

March 7, 2014

Dreams over time, one at a time He has always dreamed.

Of what could be.

When he was 8, picking strawberries in the fields of his Mexican town.

When, at 12, he left home for the big city to sell popsicles and snow cones to help his parents provide for their family.

When, at 17, he walked from Tijuana over the mountain range into California, wanting the American dream.

“Era muy triste — la pobreza,” he says. The poverty — it was very sad. “And it made me very sad. My dreams were different.”

What he saw was a life of possibility — and music.

Singing.

Performing.

Applause.

And although it may not be exactly the original dream, what Ruben Escalera has now, at 54, is close enough to make him happy.

By most days, Ruben is a school custodian who takes pride in keeping his Douglas County high school neat, clean, ready for the students who fill its halls. Other days, he trades his working polo shirt for a crisp button-down, his white baseball cap for a black cowboy hat, and steps onto a stage to croon norteño music in a deep, resonant voice before crowd-packed venues in several Mexican states.

He is a wiry, compact man, a divorced father of three with brushes of gray in his sideburns and a closely trimmed beard and mustache. He walks with a measured step, and speaks with quiet assurance born of devout faith that seeks good in what comes his way.

“Gracias a Dios, nunca me di por ven-

cido,” he says. Thanks be to God, I never gave up. “Luché, luché, luché, luché.”

He fought, always.

And there was much to fight.

He lived in Corona, a rural town in Michoacán, a state just west of Mexico City.

He was one of 13 children of a homemaker mother and a father who did everything from plumbing to bricklaying and construction.

Some of his brothers cut sugar cane; Ruben did, too. Mostly he picked strawberries with two of his sisters. He’d arrive at the field at 7 in the morning and pick for an hour, then head to school. At noon, he’d leave school and return to the fields for another two hours, before finishing out the afternoon with play and homework — “the typical life of a boy of 8 years old.”

Because he had to leave school to help his father, he repeated first grade four times. He never made it to second grade.

“Es una tristeza,” he says softly. “It is a sadness.”

That reality derailed an early dream to be a priest, to study in a seminary. Instead, at 12, he left home for Mexico City to sell popsicles and snow cones. He lived with seven others who rented a house together.

“I believed that was the best way I

could help my parents,” he says.

But another dream — the one in which he was a singer — stayed quietly alive.

It was born in his home, among the instruments dispersed in corners — the guitar, the violin, the guitarrón of the mariachi tradition. His father played them all.

His mother sang with “a precious voice.”

And his brothers and he joined in also.

“Nos traían esa herencia,” he says.

They gave us that heritage.

And much happiness.

At 9, he had won his first singing competition at the local theater, the first of many such performances in those young years.

But at 17, searching for a better life, he crossed the border illegally to join his brother in Los Angeles. He washed dishes and cars, worked in metal and carpet factories. He also learned to play the bass guitar and joined a mariachi group that performed in Mexican neighborhood nightclubs. It became a second, welcome source of income.

His voice, smooth and sonorous, brought him work in variety shows in Los Angeles and Las Vegas on long weekends.

When he married at 25, he turned to norteño music, most comparable to American country music, Ruben says. And for seven years he performed with a band.

During that time, in 1986, Ronald Reagan’s immigration policy, which provided amnesty to 3 million illegal immigrants, opened the door for Ruben to become a legal resident.

But then came the “sickness in his throat.” Cancer. He stopped performing for two years to treat it, then joined another band, the most successful one, with

which he toured throughout the U.S. and Mexico for four years.

In 1999, the cancer returned. And “with all the pain in my soul, I had to leave the band.” For much of two years, he communicated only by writing, praying that God would let him keep his voice. Eventually, his throat healed.

That twist in the road, however, brought him to Colorado and to the job he now holds and which, he says, he loves.

Six years ago, working hard to improve his English, he became a U.S. citizen.

Five years ago, he began to sing again.

The first time he performed, he cried.

“It was a very big emotion, very big, very big. … The people, they liked my work, accepted my style. … I was happy.”

He calls himself “El Vale de Michoacán,” after the nickname his late father called him as a child — val-ay, buddy. Two to three times a year he heads to Mexico to perform.

Life is good. He is content.

But he harbors one more dream, to one day dedicate himself only to his music.

Dreams are important, he says.

“When you know you can be someone, but you don’t have the means, well, it is dreams that one uses to fight.”

Like Ruben did.

Un sueño, one dream, at a time.

Sheriff’s candidate fined for fundraising report

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@ coloradocommunitymedia.com Douglas County Undersheriff Tony Spurlock, one of four candidates for sheriff, was fined last month by an administrative law judge for violating the Fair Campaign Practices Act. He has since settled up.

Judge Robert N. Spencer, of the Colorado Office of Administrative Courts in Denver, ruled Feb. 11 that Spurlock “failed to report all required information for several contributions of $100 or more and failed to report all required information for several expenditures in violation of the FCPA.” “No one was hurt (and) it wasn’t that we were trying to trick anyone,” Spurlock said, adding that he wasn’t trying to hide information. It was simply “clerical errors” that resulted in inaccurate and incomplete information in his contributions and expenditures report filed on Nov. 1, 2013.

Matt Arnold of Campaign Integrity Watchdog first discovered the problems, after which he filed a complaint with the Secretary of State’s office in January.

Spencer agreed that there was missing information and ordered Spurlock to file an amended report, which according to Spurlock, he did on Feb. 25. Spurlock was fined

by Spencer $4,050, but only required to pay $1,000 as he paid up within 30 days.

The Republican undersheriff said that

despite the fact he has already paid, he is considering appealing the fine.

Spurlock got in trouble because, in the contributions portion of the report, two donors had occupations listed as “unknown,” including one who works for the sheriff’s office. Spurlock said he was not trying to hide where the donors worked and that he has other contributors who work for the sheriff’s office and that he correctly listed their occupations.Additionally, the occupations of several retired contributors were also listed as “unknown” when they should have been described as “retired.”

Spurlock said the person responsible for creating the report didn’t know the contributors, but when he, who does know the donors, looked over the report he didn’t look at it “line by line.” He said that he would in the future, however.

In the expenditures section of the report, payees of three expenditures totaling $252 were also listed as “unknown.” The type of expense was listed as “miscellaneous” for one of the expenditures and “office supplies” for the other two.

The candidate said all three were actually expenses for Douglas County Republican groups and events and should have been described as such. He also said some of the problems with the expenditures report were caused because PayPal doesn’t provide sufficient payee information.

Douglas County Coroner Lora Thomas,

also a Republican candidate for sheriff, said she took three classes to learn how to do the requisite report, and reviewed it with an assistant before filing it. Thomas said the Secretary of State’s Office “was very helpful,” in helping her learn how to do the report and that hers is “perfect.”

“It’s not as difficult as handling a $48 million budget,” she said, referring to the sheriff’s office’s budget, Spurlock which the successful candidate will have to manage.

Castle Rock Police Cmdr. John Anderson, the third Republican candidate, said his report is also complete, without any problems. He said anyone could make a mistake but that for sensitive materials like this, one

should take additional precautions.

“I feel bad for him. I really do,” Anderson said. “I don’t like to see someone get hurt or embarrassed.”

In addition to the aforementioned problems, Spurlock was also supposed to attend a Feb. 7 hearing on Arnold’s complaint. The undersheriff said he didn’t show up because he hadn’t been informed it was taking place.

He said he didn’t show because the notice about the hearing, mailed by the Colorado Secretary of State’s office, didn’t reach him and was returned to sender. That, he said, is because his campaign headquarters’ suite number wasn’t listed on the documents he filed with the state.

Highlands Ranch Libertarian Brock McCoy Sr. became the fourth candidate to file for the office when he submitted his paperwork Feb. 25.

opinions / yours and ours

Senate-race shockwaves come with territory When U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner changed course last week from re-election mode to pursuit of the Senate, it was a reminder of just how critical Colorado is in the national political landscape.

Gardner was well on his way to being voted back to Washington in the 4th Congressional District, a Republican stronghold made up of farming-based eastern plains counties and conservative Denver suburbs.

The congressman’s decision was a personal gamble — if he loses, he’s out of a job — but not so much for the GOP, which seeks to regain control of the upper house.

For the Republicans, it was simply putting their best foot forward. The 39-year-old Gardner, labeled a “rising star” in the party in virtually every media report, gives the GOP a chance against Democratic incumbent Mark Udall. That’s something that couldn’t be said with any confidence about

our view the previous field of candidates, which included Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck.

Meanwhile, Buck has shifted his sights to Gardner’s House seat, which, unless a high-profile Republican primary challenger emerges, he should be able to garner.

The maneuvering strikes us as shrewd, but with Colorado’s primary elections still nearly four months away and the general election eight months off, it’s enough to give some the purple-state blues.

Indeed, until the first Tuesday in November, it’s going to be all politics, all the time in this battleground state. If you’re squea-

letter to the editor Thank you for health article

I want to thank reporter Chris Michlewicz for the Feb. 21 story in the Chronicle titled “Screening saves man’s life.”

I am a principal at Frontier Valley Elementary in Parker. I am married and have four children. On April 11, 2012, at the age of 43, I was admitted to Parker Adventist after scans revealed an intestinal blockage.

Dr. Sun came to my rescue and performed surgery that revealed I had three large cancerous tumors in my colon.

Stage 3 Colon Cancer! Dr. Sun was amazing and with his expertise and with the support of my oncologist, Dr. Todd Capizzi, I am now cancer free and able to enjoy life with a new perspective! Thank you much for your story and I hope your male readers realize the importance of getting a colonoscopy every five years after reaching the age of 40. There is nobody better than surgeon John Sun, M.D. Ty Muma Parker

Losing the little things, finding the big things It seems as over the past 12 months I have lost or misplaced a half-dozen cellphone chargers. Whether it is the wall charger or the car charger, they just seem to disappear from the wall, my car, my backpack, or my mind. Regardless of where they went, the result is that I find myself right back in the store purchasing another one.

Maybe it’s just my memory getting slower and I just can’t remember where I placed them. Perhaps I have left my energy source in any number of power outlets in hotels or airports along the way.

All I do know is that they were considered lost and then out of necessity, replaced.

Well wouldn’t you know it? At least half of them were found in a recent reorganization of my home and office. So for now I am flush with chargers and ready for technological mobility once again. And there was much rejoicing.

Now phone chargers and other small miscellaneous items that get lost are one thing, and if not found they can usually be replaced. We may experience some minor heartburn and headaches, however we usually get past those in a very brief period of time. It becomes a little harder when we think about other things we have lost along the way like relationships, friendships, faith, hope and love.

If we only put as much time and effort into finding those lost relationships, mending friendship fences, and restoring hope and faith as we did in finding our cellphone chargers and other small and less meaningful items, I truly believe there would be even more rejoicing.

Now a teenager may argue that their cellphone charger is right up there with the five food groups, oxygen, and money on the scale of importance. I mean have you ever been on a long car ride with a teenager when their cell phone ran out of power? They go from happily texting to misery in about 10 seconds.

I was fortunate to have found some of my “little” things like my chargers as my home and office were reorganized. Now it has left me thinking about taking the time, putting in the extra effort to reach out to lost relationships and friends who I have been out of touch with for far too long.

It has re-energized my belief system as I reorganize and recollect my passion for hope, encouragement, faith and love.

These relationships were not necessarily lost, I would say more misplaced for a period of time. And at the moment, knowing things can be lost, but that they can also be found, the strategy now has to become focused on keeping and maintaining them so they do not get lost again.

The keys are intention, focus, desire, communication and commitment. This means we are purposeful, these are priorities, we want the outcomes to improve, we open up and maintain lines of communication, and that our dedication to our effort to finding what was lost and keeping it is sincere.

Have you ever lost something? Have you found it? Is it now in safe keeping? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com and when we find and keep what once was lost it really will be a better than good week.

mish, you might want to look away as: • Republican Congressman Mike Coffman wages a fight for his political life against Democrat Andrew Romanoff, Colorado’s former speaker of the House.

The race is for the 6th Congressional District seat, a post that represents residents of Aurora, Centennial, Highlands Ranch and Littleton, among other areas. Like the Senate battle, it is one that looms large on both major parties’ national radar, and campaigning is already at a fever pitch.

• Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper works to fend off a Republican challenger chosen from among a slew of contenders.

The field already includes former U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo and Colorado Secretary of State Scott Gessler. It may soon include former Congressman Bob Beauprez, who, as of this writing, hadn’t announced a run but reportedly was very close to doing so.

His entry would certainly enliven the race and perhaps give the GOP a better shot at unseating Hickenlooper, which if achieved, would be a coup celebrated by Republicans across the country.

• Republican lawmakers, fueled by the frustration of taking a pounding in consecutive sessions, pull no punches in their attempt to take back the state Legislature.

Many issues will be discussed, but make no mistake, the centerpiece is the Second Amendment. The GOP will try to turn gun control legislation passed by the state’s Democratic lawmakers in 2013 against them, and national party leaders on both sides will be watching. This could get nasty.

There’s an old phrase, one we embrace, that says, “All politics is local.” To that, given the current political climate, we add, “… unless you’re in Colorado.”

Understanding the reason for ashes A professional woman, dressed for work in a black dress, hose and heels misjudged the incline of the sidewalk and took an all-the-way-down fall.

As I was walking toward my Jeep, just outside the tech center coffee shop, I heard the scream. Quickly, people who were nearby came to her aid.

Nobody likes to fall. It hurts the pride as much as it hurts the body. Embarrassment and physical pain converge for an experience that sets the day off to a bad start.

This fall was an accident caused by an innocent misstep. She might have been in a hurry or distracted, but it was not from a character flaw. Thankfully, her injuries were minor and, after she got to her feet, she was on her way.

But according to the Biblical account of Adam and Eve, their fall affects the human condition. The relationship with God was broken, work became much more difficult, birth was painful and death entered the picture. Ever since that fall we’ve been trying get back up, and like the woman on the sidewalk we need help.

Many people of faith observe Ash Wednesday and Lent, a solemn season of recognition of the fallen condition and preparation for the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The season begins on Ash Wednesday, the day many are marked with black ashes on their foreheads.

gives a Biblical and traditional explanation for the ashes of Ash Wednesday: “Over forty passages in the Bible associate ashes with mourning and grief. In Old Testament times people used ashes as a sign of repentance. They would sit in ashes, roll around in them, sprinkle them upon their heads, or even mingle them with their food and drink. They did this as an outward sign of their inward posture of repentance. Check out Daniel 9:3-6, for an example.

“Ash Wednesday begins Lent, a time when we stop and assess how we’re doing in our walk with God. Lent helps us identify spiritual areas in which we can grow and sinful areas that we need to avoid. To repent, put simply, means to turn away from sin and turn toward God. We use ashes as an outward expression of our need to begin again.

Hickenlooper touts ‘rigorous’ new oil and gas rules Says air will be cleaner ‘than it was before fracking’

By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Gov. John Hickenlooper was lauded by energy industry leaders and environmental groups on Feb. 25, two days after a state commission approved sweeping new air pollution rules that will regulate oil and gas activity in the state.

The new rules will make Colorado the first state to impose regulations designed to detect and reduce climate-harming methane emissions.

“They are the strongest rules on air pollution ever adopted in the U.S.,” said Fred Krupp, the national leader of the Environmental Defense Fund. “It is really a model for the nation.”

The rules, approved by an 8-1 vote of the Colorado Air Quality Commission on Feb. 23, came as a result of Hickenlooper’s calls for tougher rules aimed at protecting Colorado’s air.

“We (now) have the most rigorous air and water regulations around oil and gas in the country, without question,” the governor said at a Capitol press conference. “I think that goes a long way toward demonstrating to people that this trio of (environmental) nonprofits, the (oil and gas) industry, and the government, that if we work hard enough and are willing to make those compromises, we can make real progress.”

Larry Wolk, director of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, said the adoption of the new regulations “truly are a significant achievement.”

Wolk said the new rules will reduce more than 92,000 tons of organic compound emissions annually. The VOC emis-

sions contribute to “ground-level” ozone depletion and smog, which can lead to health affects such as increased asthma attacks and respiratory conditions.

The rules will also reduce 60,000 tons of methane emissions each year. The natural gas causes a greenhouse effect when it leaks into the atmosphere. In addition, the rules target hydrocarbon emissions that also have ozone and climate change impacts.

The new rules are expected to take effect mid-April. However, Wolk said it will take several years to implement all the regulations. The key will be the installation of infrared cameras that will be used to detect air pollution at oil and gas sites, he said.

The work in getting the regulations put in place made for strange bedfellows among environmental advocates and those in the energy industry.

“What this is about is smart and costeffective regulations,” said Ted Brown of Noble Energy. “What this is about is making sure that oil and natural gas is developed in the safest way possible.”

Not everyone is in love with the new rules. The Colorado Oil and Gas Association argued for softer regulations. However, COGA’s Tisha Schuler, who attended the press conference, said her group is ready to move on.

“We did not get everything we wanted in this rule, but the rule passed so we’re focused on moving forward,” she said. “And we’re going to emphasize how can we implement these rules cost effectively.”

Hickenlooper also used the press conference to maintain his support of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, in Colorado.

Fracking has received a great deal of attention of late, with five cities in the state having placed some form of ban or limitations on the practice — the state is cur-

in ‘ashes to ashes, dust to dust.’ We began as dust (a joyless and lifeless existence), and our bodies will return to dust until we are raised up by Christ. By receiving ashes and keeping them on, we publicly proclaim our intent to die to our worldly desires and live even more in Christ’s image, which we focus on during the season of `rebirth’ that is Lent (a Latin term for `Spring’).”

It is hard to deny the consequences of Adam’s and Eve’s fall from grace but many still don’t like to admit we have a condition that needs to change or the possibility of sin that requires forgiveness.

As I see it, while I don’t like to fall and am embarrassed and pained by physical and spiritual falls, admitting I am down gives me the opportunity to get up. There is a healthier assessment of my need with a remedy to my condition.

Add to that, a potential November ballot initiative would ask Colorado voters to give municipalities the ability to decide for themselves what kinds of activities occur within city limits, including fracking.

The governor, who is a geologist, acknowledged the “friction” surrounding the fracking issue while voicing support of the practice.

“There is a group that wants to ban all hydrocarbons; they want to ban fracking,” he said. “I think what we demonstrated

(through the new rules) is that we’re going to make the air cleaner than it was before fracking.”

Hickenlooper talked about the oftencontentious split estate issues, where dual property ownership can lead to “character of neighborhood versus the value of retirement” battles over residents’ and mineral rights.

“These are closely held values that are hard to negotiate,” he said. “But in the end, when they’re in conflict, we’ve got to figure out how to negotiate and how to find a compromise.”

The need for forgiveness is as great as the need for love in each of us, but while it is easy to say, “nobody is perfect” it is hard to admit that I have done wrong and need to experience forgiveness. Those who wear ashes, and many who don’t, have confessed their need for forgiveness and recognize the fallen condition of our world, seek the work of a Savior and desire to change their patterns of behavior.

It is painful to fall but it is not necessary to stay down if there is help to get up. The season of Lent, leading to Good Friday and Easter six weeks away, begins with an observance that seems odd to some, the wearing of black ashes on the forehead, but for many it is the first step to getting up by recognizing we have fallen.

Bombshell impacts GOP Senate field Gardner to run for Udall’s seat, others drop out of race

By Vic Vela

vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com A head-spinning development in Colorado politics from a game of musical chairs on Feb. 26 resulted in a consensus frontrunner emerging in the Republican field of U.S. Senate candidates.

U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner dropped his reelection bid and now has his sights set on unseating Democratic Sen. Mark Udall.

Gardner, who represents the state’s 4th Congressional District, takes the place of Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck in the Republican field. Buck — who lost a tight race to Sen. Michael Bennet in 2010 — dropped his Senate bid to run for Gardner’s House seat.

“We need to replace Mark Udall in the Senate, and I believe Congressman Cory Gardner is in the strongest position to make that happen,” Buck said in a Feb. 26 news release.

Gardner, who officially announced his candidacy at a press conference in Denver on March 1, was elected to the House in 2010 after defeating incumbent Rep. Betsy Markey. Before that, Gardner served in the state House. The Yuma resident is known

as a rising star in the GOP and has been an outspoken critic of President Obama’s Affordable Care Act. With Buck out and Gardner in, the Republicans stand a better shot at taking Udall’s seat, according to one longtime Colorado political scientist.

“I would say Cory Gardner is the strongest (Republican) candidate in the race at the moment,” said Bob Loevy, a retired Colorado College political science professor. “Having a sitting member of the U.S. House of Representatives in the race, that’s a big improvement for the Republicans.”

Loevy, a Republican who is well-respected among politicos for his impartial analysis, said the party is better off not having Buck involved in another Senate race.

Buck made national headlines in 2010 for comments he made about women, which cost him in his race against Bennet.

“It’s a plus that Buck is out of the race,” Lovey said. “He already ran for the Senate and lost, so he already has a loser image which is hard to overcome in politics. I think he is much better off and has a much better chance of getting elected to House.”

Buck already has company in the House race. State Sen. Scott Renfroe, of Greeley, announced his candidacy the day after the news broke. Other names have also emerged as potential candidates, including state lawmakers Jerry Sonnenberg of

The 4th Congressional District includes many counties in the eastern plains region of Colorado, but also encompasses some territory close to the Denver metro area, including Parker, Lone Tree, Castle Rock and Elbert County.

The fallout from the Gardner-Buck moves was substantial in the Senate race. State Rep. Amy Stephens, R-Monument, announced through a news release the following day Gardner that she was dropping her Senate bid as well to back Gardner, whom she called “an outstanding public servant who will unite our party and communicate our conservative principles.”

Stephens thanked her supporters and said she would continue doing her work as a state representative, but did not offer any reason behind her decision to drop out of the race.

But it was clear that Stephens had a tough road, especially because of her sponsorship of last year’s legislation that set up Colorado’s health insurance exchanges, which came as a result of “Obamacare.”

“I think she may have found that while many people may have admired her for `Amy Care,’ I think she may have discovered in a GOP primary that would be a tremendous burden,” Loevy said.

Stephens was not at the Capitol the day of her announcement and she did not return a phone call seeking comment.

While Stephens is now out of the race, state Sen. Owen Hill, R-Colorado Springs,

Fourth candidate joins sheriff ’s race

By Virginia Grantier

vgrantier@coloradocommunitymedia. com Brock McCoy, who retired from the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office after more than 25 years of service, is now the fourth candidate in the sheriff’s race.

McCoy, running as a Libertarian, filed his candidate affidavit Feb. 25 with the Secretary of State’s office.

McCoy said as sheriff he would have better control on the budget, “not spend money recklessly on just anything.” He said he’d better manage personnel and assignments. And a bigger focus on community policing is important to him.

McCoy said he used to park his squad car and walk blocks to get to know people outside, out working on their yards, in Highlands Ranch and other areas.

“You get lot of mileage out of things like that,” he said.

McCoy said he is running as a Libertarian partly because he doesn’t want to be involved in the dirty-laundry politics happening in the race among the other three candidates, all Republicans: Castle Rock Police Cmdr. John Anderson, Douglas County Undersheriff Tony Spurlock, and Douglas County Coroner Lora Thomas.

The four candidates are vying to replace

term-limited Dave Weaver.

McCoy thinks he’s the best candidate because he has spent years working the streets, has been in management, understands people and the needs of the citizens.

And he said he’s running for the right reasons, to help the community, that it’s not a “self-serving” effort. McCoy, who has lived in Highlands Ranch for 22 years, said he retired from the sheriff’s office because it wasn’t fun anymore.

He said he was a captain with the department until Weaver came into office. He said Weaver — who campaigned about the department being top-heavy — came in and demoted three captains to lieutenant including McCoy and reduced their pay.

But McCoy said eight months later Weaver promoted three lieutenants to captain, “his (Weaver’s) guys,” not McCoy or the other two who had been demoted.

When asked if Weaver wanted to respond to what McCoy related, Sgt. Ron Hanavan, sheriff’s office spokesman, issued an email statement that read: “Brock McCoy was employed at the Douglas County Sheriff’s office from 1982 to 2009. The highest rank Brock McCoy achieved was Captain and upon his departure in 2009, he was at the rank of Lieutenant. Because this is a personnel matter we are not at liberty to speak about any specifics. … No further statement will be made.”

vows to continue his candidacy in spite of a party establishment move that he thinks left Republican voters “hoodwinked.”

“This has been in the works for a while,” Hill said of Gardner’s late entry into the field. “This has all been coordinated. This is exactly what’s been losing it for Republicans in Colorado for a while — these insider, backroom deals that give people the sense that, `I’m sorry, you’re part of the party, but you have no say in who your candidates are going to be.’

“That makes it feel like it’s a coronation and not an election.”

Lovey said he doesn’t know what was behind the Gardner-Buck switch, but he said that Hill may be on to something when he says that the party establishment played a big role.

“I don’t know what the Republican establishment is doing, but I will say this is the kind of move that party big wigs try to engineer so that the party goes into the election in the strongest strategic position as possible,” he said.

The field also includes state Sen. Randy Baumgardner of Hot Sulfur Springs, and three others who do not hold public office: Mark Aspiri, Tom Janich, and Floyd Trujillo.

Loevy said that Udall would be the favorite regardless of who emerges from the GOP field. The Udall name has been “a magical name for more than a generation in American politics.”

But if Gardner becomes the Republican nominee, things could get interesting, he said.

“I think it’s a tougher race,” he said.

“Now I’d say we have a candidate who has a real chance at defeating Udall.”

Bill seeks to ban cigarette sales to those under 21 Some lawmakers call it a ‘nanny state’ measure

Cigarette sales to persons under 21 would be illegal under a bipartisan bill that is making its way through the Legislature.

But whether the measure becomes law is another story as the effort is certain to receive push back from members of the bill sponsor’s own party who say the prohibition is an example of “nanny state” government.

State Rep. Cheri Gerou, R-Evergreen, calls her effort to make it more difficult for kids to smoke “a battle worth having.”

Right now, persons who are at least 18 can purchase and possess cigarettes. That would change under Gerou’s bill.

The bill provides a grandfather clause for those who are 18 when the law would go into effect on July 1.

“We’re not going to change the habits of people 18, that’s why we put in the grandfather clause,” Gerou said. “The point of the bill is to take it out of high schools.”

Gerou said that 90 percent of people who smoke into adulthood pick up the habit when they are young teenagers. Gerou’s bill aims to put a dent in the number of youths who begin smoking at young ages.

“Granted, they’re still going to find out a way to get (cigarettes), but if we can diminish that, that’s the point of the bill,” she said.

Gerou said the bill could be amended to allow persons under 21 to smoke if they have a military I.D.

A Senate Republican, Steve King of Grand Junction, and two Democrats have joined as co-sponsors of the bill, which recently passed the Democrat majority House Health, Insurance and Environment Committee following a party-line vote.

The bill has to pass through a couple more committees before it reaches the House floor.

But some Republicans see the bill as government overreach.

“It just seems to me that we’re trying to prohibit each and every thing that has been the norm in society for some time,” said Rep. Bob Gardner, R-Colorado Springs. “It’s the equivalent to prohibition to me.”

Rep. Chris Holbert, R-Parker, echoed Gardner’s sentiments.

“I think it is increasing troubling that we are limiting choice for law-abiding citizens,” he said. “Does that mean I lack compassion for kids who get cancer? No, but its not the proper role of government to make those decisions for people, especially adults.”

The bill faces a tough road, if a recent House vote on a separate “nanny state” effort provides any indication.

The House recently passed a bill that would ban youths under 18 from using tanning beds. All GOP members, including Gerou, joined four Democrats in voting against the bill. The bill will face a tough road in the Senate.

Gerou said she is “fully expecting” arguments against her bill that were similar to those made against the tanning bill.

“I’m expecting to be beaten up about it,” Gerou said. “I always survive. I don’t know if the bill will, but it’s a battle worth having.”

Board Unplugged meeting sparks debate Audience members criticize DCSD’s financing proposal, meeting format

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@colorado communitymedia.com Criticism of the school board was the theme at the Douglas County School District’s “Board Unplugged” meeting March 3.

The evening focused on CFO Bonnie Betz’s presentation about a funding measure the district is seeking.

Small-group discussions followed, and group after group then chose representatives who said they didn’t trust the school board and would never vote for more funding until the board regained their trust.

While the agenda included a second topic for dis-

Photo by Jane Reuter cussion, it never was entertained. The first-of-its-kind meeting — billed as a way to start bringing people in the divided school community together — instead ended.

“That was great feed-

back,” Board President Kevin Larsen said to the approximately 60 people in attendance. “Rather than get feedback on another issue, we can do that at another meeting.”

next five years. While Betz called the idea a “win-win” that would keep tax rates level, audience members repeatedly said it won’t get their vote.

“I’m that parent and most of us are that would (in the past) have voted and have voted ‘yes’ for the bond every year of our lives,” Laura Alfano said, but noted money spent to bring in a pro-district speaker before the November board elections, update the website and other financial decisions raised concerns. “If we need new phones and the roofs are falling down, why do we need a PR firm?

Please help us trust you and we will help you build and fix everything.”

“Teacher trust is huge; I feel we have no trust right now,” teacher Kevin DiPasquale said. “We have a presentation, a dog-andpony show telling us about the needs of our district.

How about a parent survey?

A teacher survey?”

Julie Keim, a former board candidate who filed a lawsuit against the district for violations of the Colorado Fair Campaign Practices Act, noted the district found a way to fund its widely criticized pay-for-performance program despite voter denial of a 2011 ballot measure to finance it.

“The district took our money … and did it anyway,” she said. “Unless we feel we can trust this school board and they honor our true needs, we will as a public be unwilling to support a bond. You need to as a school board address our issues before we address yours.”

Shaylee Holland, a board member with American Academy charter school and candidate for the open board seat vacated by Justin Williams, said she feels there is some misunderstanding about the board’s reform effort and school fi-

nancing.

“I do want to share how the reform effort has saved everybody money and put money back in the classrooms,” she said. “We have 1,600 students in our two buildings that the district doesn’t have to pay for. If those two schools were shut down, that’d be 1,600 extra students vying for the finite dollars. People just need to educate themselves.”

Several also criticized a briefly discussed plan to build a K-8 special education facility similar to Plum Creek Academy, which serves middle- and highschool-aged special needs students. Goals of the new facility would include quickly mainstreaming those students back into the general DCSD school population, school leaders said.

But several audience members said building the new school would constitute segregation.

Larsen said after the meeting the board will continue to work on the format for the Board Unplugged events.

“We’re seeking and trying different formats right now we think will lead to productive exchange of information,” he said. “Last night was one element of trying something. We may find different ways to do the April and May meetings.”

Larsen said he heard “loud and clear” the comments from audience members about trust and other issues, but said he wants to be sure the district is hearing from a broad cross-section of the community.

“I don’t think the message we got last night was necessarily (from) a cross section of our entire population,” he said.

The next Board Unplugged meeting is planned for April 1. Location and time have not been announced.

Panel to focus on school security Sandy Hook parents, security experts featured during March 13 event in Parker

By Jane Reuter

jreuter@coloradocommunitymedia.com A 7-year-old Parker boy was the first student on whom Sandy Hook Elementary shooter Adam Lanza pointed his gun at Dec. 14, 2012.

Lanza did not pull the trigger, instead turning to shoot the boy’s teacher, Victoria Soto the child’s best friend and several others.

When Lanza paused to re-load his gun, the boy ran. Eight other students followed him out of the classroom and to safety.

The next day, acting on already-made plans prompted by Dave Posey’s Denver job relocation, the now 8-year-old Frontier Valley Elementary School student and his family moved to Parker.

In Douglas County, they feel safe. And that’s a message the boy’s parents — who asked their son’s name be kept confidential — want to share with others in the community.

“I can honestly say I’m not scared for my kids at school here,” said Dave Posey, who also has children in Cimarron Middle School.

“We’ve traveled all over the country, and visited all kinds of school districts. It is by far the safest, most forward-thinking and most responsive to security issues of any in the country I’ve talked to.”

Dave and Carly Posey will join several others in a Douglas County School District security panel event set for 6:30 p.m. March 13 at Parker’s Cimarron Middle School, 12130 Canterberry Parkway. The event is free and open to the public.

The Poseys have joined some Columbine High School parents to create the Sandy Hook Columbine Cooperative, designed to help communities prepare, respond, and recover from a traumatic event.

Youth tanning ban bill advances Four Dems join GOP in casting no votes

By Vic Vela

vela@coloradocommunitymedia.com Legislation that would prohibit minors from using tanning beds passed the House on Feb. 27.

But the bill is hardly guaranteed to pass the Senate, as four House Democrats joined all Republicans in voting against the bill. The bill passed following a 33-31 vote.

Rep. Cherylin Peniston, D-Westminster, said her bill “literally saves lives” and cited rising melanoma rates among children as motivation behind the effort.

But Republicans said the bill was akin to a “nanny state” government that takes away decision making from parents.

Peniston has tried unsuccessfully in previous legislative sessions to get a youth tanning ban passed at the Capitol. This year’s effort is the toughest bill yet because it calls for a complete artificial tanning device prohibition for youths under 18, without exception.

A provision that would have allowed for kids to tan with permission from a doctor has been stripped from the bill.

Business owners would face fines of up to $2,000 if they allow persons under 18 to use their tanning devices.

More than 30 states have some sort of limitations on youth tanning in place. Colorado currently has no youth tanning restrictions.

“Can we please save lives of our young adults who don’t have the knowledge to decide if this is a good idea?”

Peniston said during a House floor debate that preceded the bill’s passage.

Republicans called Peniston’s bill an example of government overreach.

Rep. Bob Gardner, R-Colorado Springs, said there are other kinds of hazards that pose threats to children, but the state doesn’t ban them all.

“It just seems to me that, while this is well-intentioned, it is an overreach for what is an incremental risk each and every time,” Gardner said, using the words “nanny state” as he spoke against the bill.

Rep. Chris Holbert, R-Parker, slammed it as being an intrusive effort of a heavy-handed government. Rep. Cheri Gerou, R-Evergreen, meanwhile, tried to amend the bill to allow children who are 16 and 17 to use tanning beds, so long as they get permission from their parents.

“There’s going to a backlash of parents,” Gerou said.

“The backlash is going to be, `I’m a parent. I love my child.

I think I know what’s best for my child.”

Gerou — who is sponsoring her own bill that would prohibit the sale of cigarettes to persons under 21 — urged for support of her amendment, but the effort failed.

“Like we do with cigarettes, with marijuana, we recognize that these things are not good for young people,” Peniston said.

House Speaker Mark Ferrandino of Denver and Reps.

Jovan Melton of Aurora, Ed Vigil of Fort Garland and Jonathan Singer of Longmont were the four Democrats who voted against the bill. Singer called the bill “unenforceable.”

The bill now heads to the Senate.

Other panelists include John Michael Keyes, Founder of i love u guys Foundation, whose daughter Emily was fatally shot at Platte Canyon High School in September 2006. The foundation is credited as the driving force behind the standard response protocols now used by school districts nationwide. Also on hand will be SAFE2TELL creator Susan Payne, a former hostage negotiator and crime prevention officer whose anonymous hotline allows anyone to report threatening behavior.

Douglas County school marshal Tyler Herman will discuss the school’s marshal program which started in fall 2013 and sends armed, local law enforcement officers to visit elementary and middle schools twice daily.

Unique though it is, Posey said it’s one of many effective security measures that combine to create safe schools.

“The marshal program has made the biggest impact and definitely is the only one of its kind in the country, but that’s just one of the many layers,” he said.

What’s still lacking, Posey said, is parent

involvement.

“All our kids had gone through Sandy Hook,” he said. “As many times as we walked through those doors, we never once thought about a lack of security; it never crossed our minds.

“Parents are not as involved as they should be in their own schools. Now we know there’s a lot more to it. You’ve got to be vigilant.”

Safe as they believe their children now are, the Posey’s children all still suffer lingering trauma — effects they hope to help others deal with or avoid altogether.

Despite ongoing therapy, their 8-year-old often panics in enclosed spaces, recently leaving a Legend High School basketball game early after the noise and a sense of confinement that grew overwhelming.

“It doesn’t mean much to him he was the hero,” Dave Posey said of his son. “For him it’s, ‘I still had my best friend die, and my teacher and everybody else. I still had to see all of this.’”

Blanketed patients lie in the clear, cylindrical chamber for 1.5 to 2 hours per treatment, breathing 100 percent oxygen in a pressurized space. The combination enriches the blood’s oxygen concentration 10 to 15 times its normal level, stimulating the growth of new blood cells.

The “high-oxygen environment really speeds the healing process,” said Adam George, director of wound care services at Sky Ridge.

Depending on the reason for treatment, patients will undergo 20 to 60 daily visits as part of an overall treatment plan.

“This is added therapy to help the patient in their healing process,” said technician Phil Treadway, who oversees the sessions.

Wounds also are cleaned and debrided — a process of removing dead tissue from a wound — to further accelerate healing.

The suite is equipped with a television for each chamber, so patients can watch TV or movies, or sleep during the procedures. They also can speak with the technician from inside the chamber.

Between the two chambers, which cost about $150,000 each, Sky Ridge can treat about eight patients daily.

Growing community need for the therapy prompted the expansion of the wound care center, Sky Ridge officials said. Englewood’s Swedish Medical Center, Medical Center of Aurora, Denver’s Presbyterian St. Luke’s and Parker Adventist Hospital all offer hyperbaric oxygen therapy as well.

Initially used to treat divers suffering from decompression sickness, technicians of hyperbaric oxygen therapy noticed those divers who also had cuts healed more rapidly than those who hadn’t undergone the therapy.

Hospitals now use the therapy to treat problematic wounds, counteracting the effects of radiation, skin grafts and diabetic ulcers. Skin disorders stemming from poor circulation, common among the elderly, also are prime candidates for the treatment.

Eye of the Camera Exhibit opens Littleton show highlights photography through March 30

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia. com “Yguazu (Big Water),” a misty, mystical, magical color photograph by Fernando Bozo was awarded “Best of Show, Color” by juror Jeffrey Rupp in the 48th Annual Eye of the Camera Exhibition.

“It stood out from the beginning,” said Rupp of the photo taken at dusk on the multiple falls on the Yguazu River, a Unesco Heritage Site that touches Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay.

When the photo was shot, it had been raining, the river was about 10 times its average volume, and it started to rain again hard just after he got his exposure —which gives him a reason to return, he figures. One can see the numerous smaller falls and the

if you go Eye of the Camera is at the Littleton Museum, 6028 S. Gallup St., Littleton through March 30. Hours: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays; 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Saturdays; 1 to 5 p.m. Sundays. Admission is free. 303795-3950. path of the river dividing Argentina and Brazil.

He and his wife said at the exhibits reception at the Littleton Museum that family members they were visiting were so apologetic about the rain, but they figure it was good, after all, with this award.

The Boulder resident, who works in Lone Tree, says he is an amateur who has photographed nature and wildlife in Africa, Australia, South America, etc. He “generally finds inspiration in and around Colorado — whether it is the Rocky Mountain National Park, Mount Evans, Yellowstone — or at the Boulder Reservoir.

There were 113 photographers who entered 328 images for this always-popular show. Of those, Rupp selected 76 photos by 60 photographers for a lively, inviting exhibit. In addition to jurying the show at the Littleton Museum, Rupp owns the Denver School of Photography, with locations in the Santa Fe Arts District and Park Hill, where he teaches at all levels and has a gallery.

Other awards were: Best of Show Black and White: “Kanarra Creek” by Robert Lace; Best of Show Darkroom (vs. digital): “The Lionfish” by Conor Culver. (Lace, Culver and Bozo will hold a three-man show next year as a reward.) First Place Color: “Indian Child Dancer;” by Charles Lehman; First Place Black and White: “Wind Storm” by Carol Walker; Second Place Color: “Rialto Gondolier” by Sam Dichter; Second Place Black and White: “Las Trancas Cowboy” by Ron Cooper.

The exhibit, put on by the Littleton Fine Arts Board runs through March 30.

Dawson | Wallace ‘Ascending Light’ Original choreography by Gregory Dawson featured

By Sonya Ellingboe

sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia. com In October 2011, the board of directors of the former David Taylor Dance Theatre voted unanimously to change the name to Dawson|Wallace Dance Project.

The David Taylor Dance Theatre, which for a number of years was a Littleton Main Street resident, was at the time a part of Englewood’s arts community. Since the name change and merger of talent, the company has continued to perform locally.

The company steps forward in March with major new work as it presents “Ascending Light” with original choreography

by Gregory Dawson to music composed for Dawson by jazz musician/composer Richard Howell.

The program will also present choreography by Dawson set to the music of Baroque composer George Frederic Handel. Dawson said that each composer interpreted the life and times within which they exist.

if you go “Ascending Light” will be performed at 7:30 p.m. on March 14 and 15 at the Lakewood Cultural Center, 470 S. Allison Parkway, Lakewood. Tickets: $28/$22, 303-9877845, www.Lakewood.org/Tickets. (On Saturday night, the ticket includes admission to the annual gala/silent auction beginning at 6 p.m.)

Mikael Padilla, local hair stylist and owner of Mikael Padilla Salon at 300 Fillmore St. in Cherry Creek, was in La La land last weekend for a trip to the Oscars.

Padilla attended the March 2 Academy Awards with friend and client, Taryn Rose, an orthopedic surgeon-turned shoe designer. You can see her designs at www. tarynrose.com. Rose is a Vietnamese refuge and became a doctor like her father before creating a successful shoe business, designed out of frustration with shoes that left women with aching feet.

Padilla also had an appointment to color Camila Alves’ hair on March 1. Who is that you ask? Only the wife of Best Actor winner Matthew McConaughey, nominated for his work in “Dallas Buyers Club.”

Fallon takes `pot’ shot at Colorado

Spanking new “Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon took a pot shot at our own Gov. John Hickenlooper Feb. 25 by making jest of Colorado’s legal retail marijuana laws.

“Colorado expects to make $100 million from taxing legalized marijuana,” the comedian said. “Governor John Hickenlooper (big audience laugh at the name) says he will use a lot of that money to build new schools.

Suggested names? “U. Holden Academy, Hot Pocket Prep and St. Mary Jane’s.”

Seth Meyers coming to Denver

Speaking of NBC late-night hosts: Seth Meyers, the new host of NBC’s “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” will perform live at The Ellie Caulkins Opera House on Sept. 13.

Meyers replaced Fallon as host of “Late Night” on Feb. 24.

Tickets for the show are $49.50 to $59.50 and went on sale Feb. 28.

Proceeds will benefit The Zarlengo Foundation, a Colorado-based 501(c) 3 nonprofit organization whose guiding principle is to support families of learning disabled children.

A portion of the proceeds from the event will be donated to schools and programs in the community that provide specialized education for children with learning disabilities, including but not limited to language-based, attention and nonverbal disabilities such as dyslexia and attention deficit disorder.

TAG Burger Bar busts budget on Zagat list

Dancer Byron Roman will perform in Dawson|Wallace Project’s “Ascending Light” on March 14-15 at Lakewood Cultural Center. Courtesy photo The performances on March 14-15 will be at the Lakewood Cultural Center.

James Wallace, who had been a dancer and resident choreographer with DTDT, assumed the position of artistic director in 2006, continuing performances under the original name.

He brought a broad background as a choreographer and dancer with national connections.

He began a professional collaboration in 2009 with Dawson, who had retired after 18 years as a dancer with San Francisco-based

LINES, which offers a BFA dance program through Dominican University.

The two directors found that a combination of talents and resources would succeed in a long-tern collaboration that drew on dancers from Denver and San Francisco.

The company will be headquartered in Denver and continue to perform its “Children’s Rainforest Odyssey,” “Nutcracker” and “Nutcracker in a Nutshell” as well as conducting a summer dance intensive and producing other contemporary ballet works.

Got a burger budget to burn? Zagat has some ideas on where to go and one of those m selected was TAG Burger Bar in Denver’s Congress Park neighborhood.

The Zagateers wrote: “Troy Guard’s funky Congress Park tavern opened well over a year ago, and still no one’s managed to outdo his Andrew Jackson burger — a $20 topping.”

TAG Burger Bar is located at 1222 Madison St.

The seen and heard

Actor John C. McGinley dined at Elway’s Cherry Creek on Feb. 17. McGinley is most notable for his roles as Perry Cox in “Scrubs,” Bob Slydell in “Office Space,” Captain Hendrix in the “The Rock,” Sgt. Red O’Neill in Oliver Stone’s “Platoon” and Marv in Stone’s “Wall Street.” His most recent role was playing sportscaster Red Barber in the Jackie Robinson biopic, “42.”

Thrift shop helps those in need Ideal Garage Sale offers deep discounts

By Chris Michlewicz

cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com No matter how many times she gets knocked down, Jan Scharnell finds a way to pick herself back up.

She has endured a string of tragedies that would overwhelm the most hardened person: a fire consumed her home and everything inside at age 16; she lost her brother in 1988; most recently, in December 2012, her husband passed away.

During her times of financial need, Scharnell has managed to find help with food, clothes and bills, but says she doesn’t often come across a resource for everyday necessities.

“When your house burns down, where do you go for that kind of stuff?” she said.

“What if you no longer have a coffee pot? I would freak out if I don’t have my coffee.”

That’s why Scharnell, 51, created a business that seeks to lend a friendly hand, shoulder or ear, along with deep discounts. Ideal Garage Sale, a consignment store tucked in a strip mall near Costco, has nearly 4,000 items in stock to prop up those who are going through a difficult time.

In a place where status is

a known commodity, there is little visible evidence of the family struggles that Scharnell and human services agencies know exist in the community.

“We make it comfortable for people to talk about it,” she says.

Along with her longtime friend, Chris Dailey, and Lily, a Shar Pei/German Shepherd rescue who spends her days lazing on the merchandise, Scharnell has built a store that’s becoming known across all demographics.

A constant flood of donations and consignment items keeps things busy, as does a steady stream of customers. Ideal Garage Sale also is connected with Air Scharnell, a hobby shop that specializes in remote control aircraft. With merchandise of all shapes and sizes overflowing the shelves, it might appear as though the store is in disarray, but everything is carefully marked, organized and categorized.

Ideal Garage Sale stocks a range of items, from comfy leather recliners and kitchen tables to antiques and toys. Even though the store has only been open for six months, Scharnell and Dailey have heard their fair share of stories and met plenty of people in need. One single mother of five recently loaded up on household goods at prices that were too good to pass up. Prices start at 50 cents.

Chris Dailey and Jan Scharnell, co-owners of Ideal Garage Sale in Parker, talk about the variety of items that are donated or left on consignment. Photo by Chris Michlewicz “Even though we’re a consignment store, a thrift store, whatever you want to call us, we work just like a garage sale: everything is negotiable,” Scharnell said.

All of the proceeds from the sale of donated items are put into a separate “ministry fund” used to rescue people who are down on their luck. Ideal Garage Sale is not a nonprofit and has no ties to one particular organization, but victims of tragedy are sent from churches, task forces, the American Red Cross and

sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia. com The bandstand is at the back of center stage, featuring six fine musicians knocking out one great swing era number after another from the 1930s and 40s, as they form a live backdrop for vocalists and dancers.

The audience sees assorted signs: “Savoy,” “USO,” “Rialto Room,” etc. as they tour to venues where music and dance are happening and melody surrounds. This swing music is in set arrangements, rather than the jazz improvisational performances we often hear today, so a choreographer can design a piece that will work every time.

It’s “Swing!” the musical, conceived by Paul Kelly and originally directed and cho-

reographed by award-winning Lynne Taylor-Corbett, a Littleton High graduate who made it big-time on Broadway — with this show and many more.

It opened in 1999 at the St. James Theatre in New York and is unique in that it consists entirely of lively song and dance, with no storyline or dialogue, thus requiring a very specific cast. Swing dance is enjoying a new round of popularity, so this should appeal to more folks than just those of us who enjoyed it on the first pass.

Director/dancer Matthew Peters has assembled four singers and eight dancers who work together smoothly, with dancers managing lightening costume changes and acrobatic numbers, one after the other.

Multi-talented Seth Caikowski is a sort of singing, dancing emcee who strings acts to-

Sundays and 3/8. Tickets: $20-$40, 303-794-2787, ext 5; www.townhallartscenter.com.

Dancers include Peters, Stephen Bertles, Joseph DeMers (a Lindy Hop/Blues specialist who owns the Overstreet Dance Gallery in Littleton), Ronni Gallup, Rae Klapperich, Matt LaFontaine, Emma Martin and Brenda

Thistle.

Some numbers, such as “Jersey Bounce,” engage all eight, while others, like “Harlem Nocturne,” with Martin and Fontaine showcase a duo, as did “Dancers in Love” with Emma Martin and DeMers. Choreography is demanding throughout and these dancers are up to it.

Vocalists have the different styles of the era mastered as well. I particularly enjoyed the bit of scat singing by Kern and Thomas — “Bli-Blip” done with skill and a sense of humor.

Instrumentalists, such as trumpeter Rob Reynolds had an occasional chance to shine and the strong beat throughout sent an audience dancing out the doors after the company’s finale number: “It Don’t Mean a Thing, If It Ain’t Got That Swing.”

After their stars were born at the annual Colorado Thespian Conference December 2013 in Denver, nine Rock Canyon thespians are headed for the National Thespian Conference at the University of NebraskaLincoln this June.

They group hopes to raise funds to help with their travels, and potential donors are asked to contact their director, Cindy Baker, at Cindy.Baker@dcsdk12.org.

Colorado sends just one one-act play from the many that compete at the state conference and Rock Canyon’s entry, “Jack and Jill,” by Jane Martin was chosen. Senior Nathan Nelson directed and acted in it, with junior Meredith Ham. In this play about a couple, two crew members interacted with the cast members

throughout, due to frequent costume and set changes.

Sophomore Sam Hulsizer and junior Francesca Wearsch filled those roles.

Other students qualified as superior in various local competitions. Junior Sam Molitoriss received 100 percent on his Lighting Design competition. And sophomore Chris Woodley, senior Zach Rickert, and juniors Kalle Sorbo and Lauren Yehle will also be making the trip.

They will perform, compete, attend workshops and the juniors will audition for college scholarships, according to Baker. The director said that the department at Nebraska has state-of-the-art facilities, thanks to an endowment from the estate of alumnus Johnny Carson.

Five from this group are also involved in the school production of “Sweeney Todd (school version),” playing this weekend at Rock Canyon.

More than 2800 students from across the country and their teachers converge on the University of Nebraska campus each year for the weeklong Thespian Festival.

Ponderosa gets first playoff win in 10 years Mustang boys fall to top-seeded Valor in second round

By Jim Benton

jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia. com Ponderosa’s players washed the cotton out of their mouths at halftime and rallied in the second half for a 52-38 first-round Class 4A state playoff boys basketball victory over Mountain View.

The Feb. 26 victory was the first state playoff triumph for the Mustangs since 2004.

“For a lot of these guys it was the first time in the dance,” said Ponderosa coach Mike Gibbs. “I had two guys with experience. I told them, hey in the first half you are going to be tight and you are going to have cottonmouth but just stay with the game plan.

“At halftime we got the guys settled and in the third quarter we came out with more intensity and ready to go.”

Ponderosa left its jitters in the dressing room after halftime. The Mustangs snapped an 18-18 halftime tie and outscored the Mountain Lions 17-8 during the third quarter.

Bryan Ortiz led the Mustangs secondhalf surge on Ponderosa’s home court. He scored four points in a third quarter that saw six different Mustangs get into the act.

“We got tired of losing in the regular season and felt like we needed to send a message to everybody,” said Ortiz. “The boys just caught on fire and felt like we needed this one to open everybody’s mind that we are going to take this one. We want to change Ponderosa.

“My four points really helped us, and then everybody started getting awake once I started it. Once I started driving to the bas-

ket the defense started collapsing on me, so my shooters were ready to shoot. Once my shooters were knocking down shots, we started taking over the game.”

Late in the third quarter with a doubledigit lead, Ponderosa began to run time off the clock by making more passes and looking for either layups or wide-open shots.

“Guys were playing a little too fast at the time because again, they were excited,” explained Gibbs.

“We were going too quick. So we slowed them down.”

Ponderosa, with reserves playing the final three minutes of the game, built its lead to 17 points with 1:39 left in the game and evened its overall record at 12-12.

Ortiz, a 6-foot-2 senior, had 12 points and four assists to lead the Mustangs. Zack Scott scored 10 points, and 6-foot-10, Wyoming-bound Jonathan Barnes had eight points, 14 rebounds and three blocked shots.

“I’m so proud of these guys,” Gibbs said.

“Only two guys had playoff experience so it was the first time for everybody else. I’m always nervous about state playoff games because you never know what you are going to get, college, NBA or wherever.

“It was a team effort and I told them at this time of the season, it is about the team.

It’s not about your star or your 20 points, it’s about the team.”

After getting its first playoff win in 10 years, Ponderosa ran into a tournamenttested team in the second round that many think will win it all.

Valor Christian, the Class 4A state runner-ups in 2013, ended the Mustangs season Feb. 28 by dealing Ponderosa an 88-43 loss.

“Valor is the overall No. 1 seed in the state,” said Gibbs. “Valor is a major program. They are a dynasty in football and basketball is not far behind.”

Gabel, Finesilver share top wrestling honor New coaches to walk sidelines in Parker

Ponderosa and Cherry Creek champs named south metro’s best

Change of guard takes place for Ponderosa, Lutheran football

By Jim Benton

jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com

By Jim Benton

Dylan Gabel and Mitch Finesilver survived the 2013-14 season with targets on their backs.

Gabel, a senior from Ponderosa, won the 170-pound state championship in 2013, while Finesilver, a senior at Cherry Creek was the state champion at 120 pounds.

Most opponents wrestling against Gabel and Finesilver used the matches as measuring sticks and often wrestled more defensively trying not to get embarrassed.

Gabel and Finesilver, who have been selected as the Colorado Community Media’s South Metro Wrestlers of the Year, continued to be aggressive.

Both won their second straight state individual championships during the Class 5A state tournament Feb. 22 at the Pepsi Center.

Gabel pinned Jaylen Mosqueira of Arapahoe in 3:11 to win the 182-pound title while Finesilver edged Coronado’s Jess Hankin, 1-0, to capture the 126-championship.

In the 2014 state tournament Gabel pinned all four of his opponents and set a Ponderosa single season record with 35 falls. He also broke a record set by his older brother Austin, now a wrestler at Virginia Tech, by recording 288 team points.

“He was on fire in the state tournament,” said Ponderosa coach Corey McNellis of Gabel. “He was on a mission. He blew the stats out of the water this season. He was tentative in the state finals last year. Keep in mind a lot of last year he was getting back the feel

Jaron Cohen has been named the new head football coach at Ponderosa and Blair Hubbard has been handed the football reins at Lutheran.

Cohen, who compiled a 24-27 record in four years at Liberty in Colorado Springs, guided Aurora Hinkley into the state playoffs last season with a 5-5 record.

He replaces Jamie Woodruff, who had come out of retirement to lead the Mustangs to a 17-5 record the past two seasons.

“Ponderosa has been one of the top 4A programs in the state and has had great community involvement and a real supportive administration,” said Cohen.

“We live in Parker. It was just one of those opportunities.

“They asked me what was my No. 1 job that I would want and for a variety of reasons it would be Ponderosa. You don’t want to leave a place after one year but when you see a school and a community that you live in and want to be a part of it and try to build on the tradition, it was something I had to explore.”

Cohen hopes to unveil a sound 2014 Mustang team when the season kicks off.

“We’ll open it up,” he said. “We’re really a pistol spread team but within the offense you can go heavy set, you can go spread set, but fundamentally it’s just doing the little things right and playing great fundamental football.

“When I get to know the kids, hopefully we can find the best system that will benefit our players. I look at playing beyond the scoreboard and evaluating (whether) we prepared the best we could all week through our film study and game planning. And then `did we put our kids in a position to succeed and did we execute.’”

On the Lutheran sidelines, Hubbard comes to the Lions from Faith Christian where he went 148-30 over the past 15 seasons. He coached Faith Christian to three state titles, 14 state playoff appearances and 10 league titles. He will take over for Daryl Moe as the new head coach of the Lions.

on being comfortable on the mat after taking a year off.”

Gabel, who will wrestle next season at Northern Colorado, was playing football as a sophomore when it was discovered that he had broken his back. It was never determined if the back injury, which required extensive surgery, was caused by a hit in football or a wrestling move.

He didn’t wrestle as a sophomore but returned for the final two football games as a junior and won the state wrestling championship after placing fifth as a freshman.

“Being aggressive has always sort of been my style,” said Gabel who was 47-2 this season. “I believe the best kind of defense is a good offense. When I’m on the attack, usually that’s when good things happen. I try to keep my aggressive style no matter who I am wrestling and just try to break the will of my opponent.

“Last year was a year of confidence for me. I was able to prove that I could

wrestle with the best after the year off I had with my back and everything.”

Gabel’s brother Austin is a former three-time Colorado state champion.

Dylan might have had a chance to match his brother’s three state titles if he had wrestled as a sophomore.

“I take a lot of crap from him because of that,” admitted Gabel. “There’s nothing I can do about that now.’’

Finesilver, whose twin brother Zach was the 138-pound titlist this season, compiled a 50-1 record and was one of four Finesilver brothers wrestling for Creek this season, all of whom made it to the Pepsi Center.

“He had a real good year,” said Cherry Creek coach Mike Luhring. “Guys knew who he was. He had frustrating matches. They didn’t want to get beat bad. They would lock on his wrists to prevent him from getting shots off. He’s such a good wrestler he would find a way to win those frustrating matches.”

Finesilver, along with Zach, will be wrestling for Duke next season.

ThunderRidge junior named swimmer of year Annie Ochitwa’s two state titles leads to CCM top honor

PICKING THE ATHLETES OF THE YEAR Choosing Colorado Community Media’s South

By Jim Benton

Metro Athletes of the Year was a combined effort. Area coaches were asked for their thoughts, and their input was weighed heavily when CCM’s sports staff made the final selection for each sport.

jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Determination is one of Annie Ochitwa’s biggest assets.

The ThunderRidge junior recorded the state’s quickest times early in the season in both the 50- and 100-yard freestyle swims.

Throughout the 12-week high school campaign no one in the state matched them.

Ochitwa then achieved her goal of winning the state championship in both events during the Feb. 14-15 state swimming and diving championships at Veterans Memorial Aquatic Center and most recently, she has been named the Colorado Community Media South Metro Girls Swimmer of the Year.

“She was very consistent all season,” said ThunderRidge coach Jennie Odiorne.

“I think she felt the pressure.

She felt confident but knew a race could go either way. With the

schools in Douglas County, the high schools in the Littleton Public Schools District and from Cherry Creek High School.

sprint races she has to be pretty darn perfect.

“Her focus this year was relentless. That’s what kept her pretty consistent. She was so determined. And she did a really good job of keeping all her emotions in check and just focusing on the swimming and enjoying herself.”

Most of Ochitwa’s determination can be traced to the fact she was second in the state as a freshman and sophomore in the 50-yard freestyle. She also finished in second and third place, respectively, in the 100 the past two years.

“It’s a long season,” said Ochitwa. “Three months (from the start of practice) of taking it all in and thinking about it every single day in practice can get exhausting.

Your body is tired and your brain is fried but you find a way to think about the end goal.

“My goal, as simple as it sounds, was to win the two state championships. As much as I would have liked to have gone faster, that was my goal and I accomplished it. I couldn’t have been happier.”

Ochitwa won the 50-yard freestyle with a time of 23.11 seconds and set a personal best by touching up in 49.92 seconds in the 100yard freestyle.

“I just went out and swam,” said Ochitwa.

“I did everything I could to prepare. I knew I didn’t leave anything in the pool leading up to the state meet. I was ready. I don’t think it was difficult to be consistent during the season. I just got in a groove and did what I expected out of myself.”

Rock Canyon’s Lexy Thorderson scored 16 points as the Jaguars started quickly and never trailed in a 60-44 second round win over Arapahoe. Rock Canyon (17-7) played ss 4A at Cherry Creek March 4.

ThunderRidge, a No. 2 seed in the Class

“The conclusion of the assessment was that there was very definitely a market to be served,” Elliman said.

The Wildlife Experience proposal centered on the idea that the museum could primarily operate as a daytime facility, while the University of Colorado used it for evening activities. The schedules “fit perfectly,” Elliman said.

Several department heads expressed tremendous interest when the plan was announced. The type of programming offered is designed to mirror the industries represented by the local population: health care, engineering and business.

But CU’s education department also saw the expansion as an opportunity to

to the shocks was also important.

South Metro Safety Foundation Executive Director Cheryl Poage, who has helped get AEDs installed in local high schools and public buildings, says the lifesaving machines are proving their worth. In fact, a teacher in the Cherry Creek School District was saved Feb. 4 when a defibrillator the foundation funded was used.

Cales, a Parker resident since 1996, works out regularly and said there were no warning signs of a heart attack, but he says his “family is the history of heart disease.”

Jureller learned from one of the responding paramedics that Cales arrived at the hospital and had been stabilized, news that brought her great relief. Cales is

$600,000 in its 2014 budget, but the commissioners must formalize the IGA. Todd Drive wasn’t on the town’s radar until the American Academy land purchase occurred last spring, replacing previous plans for a senior living community. Before opening on Motsenbocker Road just south of Mainstreet in fall 2013, American Academy’s traffic impact analysis recommended the completion of Todd Drive to provide an alternate route to relieve traffic.

The school’s construction plans were “fast-tracked” and Parker’s public works department, as well as the officials who allocate money, suddenly had to devise a strategy, said Chris Hudson, project manager for public works.

“This thing came out of left field because of what the school district decided,” he said.

Unlike businesses that move into town, schools are not required to pay development fees for public infrastructure improvements that mitigate the impacts associated with the project.

so grateful for his second chance that he is assembling the team that helped save him at Lifetime Fitness within the next week to thank them in person. Jureller, a CPR-certified former lifeguard, says it was “surreal” speaking to him on the phone.

“I heard that his wife said `thank you,’ that I had saved a husband and a father,” she said. “That really hit home. I realized it was more than his life that I impacted.”

Jureller, whose mother is an emergency room nurse, said it was a team effort that saved Cales. She said “everything might not have turned out as well as it did” if not for the actions of many and early intervention. She is eager to meet Cales, but doesn’t need thanks. She said knowing he is okay is enough of a reward.

As for Cales, he is “reconnecting with God” and enjoying each moment he has with his family.

“Every day is a new adventure for me now,” he said.

Homeowners living in nearby neighborhoods, particularly Clarke Farms, have expressed concerns about the traffic that clogs the streets surrounding American Academy during drop-off and pick-up times. Hudson pointed out that charter schools attract families from all over the metro area, and the greater the number of access points, the better.

In addition to the intergovernmental agreement with Douglas County, Parker Town Council gave the green light to a proposal from the Parker Water and Sanitation District to install a water line in conjunction with the road project.

The Town of Parker has a history of working with Douglas County to alleviate impacts from Douglas County School District construction. Hudson said the stretch of Chambers Road south of Mainstreet was “accelerated” in 2009 when Sports Authority Stadium, then Burt.com Stadium, was built.

The unexpected expenditure for the half-mile piece of Todd Drive, an existing gravel road that dead-ends in the rural Cherry Creek Highlands subdivision, was built into the 2014 town budget, Hudson said.

It is unclear when construction will commence.

The university is talking about increasing the number of options in the future, most likely during the 2015-16 school year. Programs from CU’s Boulder and Colorado Springs campuses will be implemented.

The university will have access to The Wildlife Experience’s theater and ballroom for ceremonies and other events.

In a statement, Dave Liniger, museum founder and co-founder of RE/MAX International Inc., said the collaboration will enable The Wildlife Experience to enhance its service to the community.

“Our long-term vision for The Wildlife Experience is to continue to serve south metro Denver by expanding our educational outreach and use of our facility to include programs aimed toward adult education,” he said.

The renovation project will follow an aggressive five-month construction schedule.
