‘They’ve drawn a line in the sand’ Development application sets up fight between residents, owners BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Diana Love moved to Franktown from Glendora, California, 21 years ago, looking to get away from the big city and enjoy the rural living that members of her family enjoyed in Douglas County. “We fell in love with it,” she said. “We wanted out of the city and a place with a little bit of room around us.” Now she and other residents of the small community south of Parker fear the city is coming to them. An application is pending with the Douglas County Planning Commission for Franktown Village, a proposed development at the intersection of Route 83 and Route 86. If approved, the 106.9-acre development could double Franktown’s population — which was 395 as of the 2010 census — and attract more commercial traffic, threatening the agrarian lifestyle residents cherish. Plans for Franktown Village include 286 dwelling units of single-family homes, duplexes and townhomes and 180,000 square feet of commercial,
Diana Love, president of the Franktown Citizens Coalition II, holds tight to her research into the Franktown Village development, and to her hopes of stopping it from being approved. Love and 300 members of the coalition started an online petition and set up a website to unite their efforts. TOM SKELLEY business and office space. Love, a retired attorney, heads the Franktown Citizens Coalition II, a 300-member nonprofit that organized last year to stop Franktown Village. The group has hired a water rights attorney and is looking for a land use attorney. An online petition published

by the group has more than 2,500 supporters. “We’re hearing from people in Elizabeth, in Parker, in Castle Rock,” Love said. “People are very riled up and very worried.” Jack Reutzel, an attorney representing property owners Russ Burgett
and Pat Carroll, said water for the development will come from different aquifers than the one residents’ wells use and more water will be piped in from outside of the area. He said central water and sewage systems could alleviate current issues with depleted wells, but such a system could only be approved if the area has higher population density. “We’re not doing anything that would require an amendment to the (Douglas County) master plan,” he said. As for the question of lifestyle, Reutzel said the two sides simply disagree on the definition of the term “rural” in the Douglas County Master Plan. Planning commission hearings on the application have been repeatedly postponed. Reutzel said he is finalizing details in the application about off-site water sources and doesn’t want to “fast track” any changes. He estimated the plan would come before the planning commission in March. Love said she and Reutzel met in November, and their discussions were “above board.” For his part, Reutzel agreed, but they both acknowledged things likely won’t be as friendly when they face off in front of county officials. “It’s going to be a long fight,” Love said. “People are angry — they’ve draw a line in the sand.”

Council changes requirements for apartment buildings Ordinance requires ‘condo mapping,’ limits building height BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Citing the Parker Master Plan’s vision of making homeownership more available and the pending construction of approximately 2,000 new apartment units, Parker Town Council passed an ordinance Jan. 17 requiring developers to significantly change the way they design and plan new apartment complexes. The ordinance requires developers to “map” multifamily apartment units as condominiums, providing a plan as to how the rental apartments could be converted to for-sale condos. It also limits the height of new buildings within 50 feet of a single family home to 30 feet, effectively capping new buildings in that range at two stories. The ordinance passed by a 4-2 vote, with councilmembers Josh Martin, Joshua Rivero, John Diak and Amy Holland voting in favor and councilmembers Debbie Lewis and Renee Williams voting no. Mayor Mike Waid only votes in cases of a tiebreaker. During the meeting, Rivero said many seniors can’t afford to downsize their homes and the ordinance would ensure availability of condos for purchase after the town is more completely built out. “We are running out of inventory,” Rivero said. But critics of the ordinance, including Diane Leavesley, executive director of the Douglas County Housing Partnership, said the ordinance won’t accomplish that goal. “It’s adding costs and not really
NEWS IN A HURRY DCL hosts 50-plus online dating panel As part of Douglas County Libraries two-part program “Love Is in the Air: Looking for Love Online After 50,” DCL is seeking volunteers age 50-plus who are willing to share their online dating experiences. Volunteers will serve on the first part of a panel discussion at the Philip S. Miller Branch in Castle Rock from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. on Feb. 18. Ideal panelists are those who are actively dating or have found partnership with someone after the age of 50. Part One of the program includes a presentation of select dating websites and a discussion of personal safety, followed by the panel discussion. Part Two of the program takes place from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. on Feb. 25 and features a writing workshop for program participants who are ready to start online dating and want support in creating their online profiles.

solving their problem,” Leavesley said. “Doing what they’re doing isn’t making it any easier to build condominiums.” The Parker Chronicle reached out to Rivero and the other five council members by telephone and email to respond to questions about the ordinance. They deferred to Waid, who answered by email. “The process to create a condominium map is not costly,” Waid wrote, and it would provide an option for units to be converted in the future. Speakers and councilmembers Martin and Rivero acknowledged that the reason condos aren’t being built in Colorado is so-called “construction defect” legislation that makes insuring condos prohibitively expensive. But Waid said in the email that once the state addresses the “flawed construction defect legislation” mapping apartments as condos would “provide an easier path to conversion to for-sale product.” Leavesley agreed that it is “almost impossible” to build condos because of construction defect laws, but she disputed Waid’s take on mapping costs, and said there is no guarantee any apartments would ever be converted. Affordable housing complexes, for example, typically remain apartments for at least 30 to 40 years, and other developers prefer to rent out units for the income rather than sell them, she said. Leavesley noted that adding costs on the front end of a project would cost builders money that could otherwise be used to reinvest in building repairs and improvements. “There’s a misconception that projects would be capable of handling the additional costs — that’s not the case.” Leavesly said. “It won’t get (the coun- k t cil) what they want and it’s money d that could be better spent.” a a

Neighbors oppose moving school into community Building in Lone Tree will house Eagle Academy alternative program BY MIKE DIFERDINANDO MDIFERDINANDO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
More than 200 residents of a Lone Tree neighborhood have raised objections to the Douglas County School District’s approval of the purchase of a nearby building that will serve as home to the district’s evening high school program. A number of residents of the upscale Heritage Hills community, which backs up to the property at 9350 Teddy Lane, came to the Jan. 17 board of education meeting to voice their concerns. The vacant building that previously was a bank will be home to the district’s Eagle Academy, which has an enrollment of about 270 students. Karen Short, a 16-year resident of the area, said having the school move in worries her. “I am a neighbor to Teddy Lane,” she said. “The distance from the door to my backyard is less than the distance between home plate and first base on a baseball field — distance that can be traveled in 10 seconds,” Short said. “A night alternative high school, 81 feet from my residence, is
completely and totally unacceptable.” But interim Superintendent Erin Kane said the school and its students would not be disruptive to the community. “I have read all the letters, I’ve heard all the feedback from Heritage Hills and I see the concerned residents here tonight,” Kane said. “I want to commit to them that we will bend over backward to work together to be good neighbors.” Pam Ladnier, president of the Heritage Hills Homeowners Association, said she and her neighbors are concerned about increased traffic and noise from students coming and going in the evenings. “The student lounge will look out into the backyards and homes only 70 feet away,” Ladnier said. Al Talbert, another Heritage Hills resident, also voiced concerns about lack of privacy. “They’ll be able to look into our house four nights a week from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. year-round,” Talbert said. “This is our backyard. This is where we play with our children, play with our dogs, barbecue and have friends and families over.” More than 200 residents have signed a petition against moving the school to the Teddy Lane property, which is south of C-470 and west of I-25. The school board voted 6-1 to purchase the building. Board member
Wendy Vogel voted against the move, citing concerns about funding, other capital needs in the district and the impact on nearby residents. The property is 26,000 square feet and is expected to cost the district $3.95 million to purchase and an estimated $3 million to renovate. Eagle Academy, which has been housed at Highlands Ranch High School, is an afternoon and evening high school program that provides “an alternative path to earning a high school diploma,” according to the district website. The district’s Master Capital Plan identifies the need for $29.3 million for new construction to meet the needs of alternative secondary school students. Eagle Academy’s current location at Highlands Ranch High has limited the school’s growth, according to the district. Eagle Academy Principal Jeff Broeker defended his school and students and pledged to be “good neighbors.” “I feel as good neighbors we could mitigate many of those things which were shared this evening in terms of privacy, in terms of our students and their whereabouts and how we will utilizing the facility,” Broeker said. Colby Martell, Eagle Academy’s student body president, spoke to the board about the need for his school to have its own community. “I have truly felt like a visitor,” he
said. “I don’t really feel like I belong in that building, because it is Highlands Ranch.” Eagle Academy English teacher Don Hoaglin said the feeling wasn’t limited to the students. “When I first started at Eagle, I came in, had to borrow a room, borrow resources and I felt like a visitor in my own classroom,” Hoaglin said. “If an adult is feeling that, consider this: What is a 16-, 17-, 18- or 19-yearold student feeling as a perpetual visitor? By having our own site, we could do so many good and positive things.” The district said it would work with Heritage Hills residents as it finalizes plans for the building. DCSD’s Bridge North and Child Find programs, which are located in leased properties currently and cost the district $166,000 a year, will also be housed in the new building. Bridge North is an extension of DCSD’s transition services. The program serves students 18-21 years of age with significant support needs in the areas of adult living skills and vocational goals. Child Find is part of the district’s special education program and serves as a resource for families who are residents of Douglas County at no charge. DCSD is expected to begin occupying the building in August, barring any delays or permitting issues.
Driver who killed motorcyclists gets 20 years in prison BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Athina Munoz, the driver who killed two motorcyclists near Franktown last year while texting and driving under the influence, received a 20-year prison sentence in front of a packed courtroom Jan. 20. “There is no other way to classify what happened… as anything but a tragedy,” said Judge Shay A. Whitaker, adding that the crash “was not an accident, but a series of bad choices that ended in tragedy.” In October, Munoz, 28, pleaded guilty to two class-3 felony counts of vehicular homicide while driving under the influence of alcohol, causing a Feb. 27 crash that killed Brian and Jacquie Lehner of Parker and injured another motorcyclist, Joseph Bartoletti of Colorado Springs. The charges carried a maximum sentence of 24 years and $750,000 in fines. Munoz swerved out of the southbound lane of Highway 83 near North Russellville Road, crossing the median and striking two motorcycles, one carrying Bartoletti and the other carrying the Lehners. At the scene, Munoz confessed to a police officer that she had been drinking and smoking marijuana in the hours before the crash. The Parker woman also admitted to checking
a text message just before drifting into the northbound lane. More than 100 people, many of them family and friends of the victims, came to the Douglas County Justice Center in Castle Rock for the sentencing, filling the courtroom and much of another room dedicated to accommodating the large crowd. Several supporters made victim impact statements, including the Lehners’ three sons and Jacquie Lehner’s parents, Mary and Jack Munoz Boettcher, who traveled from Montana for the proceeding. Jack Boettcher said the loss of their daughter and son-in-law caused his wife’s health to deteriorate and robbed the couple of the chance to be grandparents. “I would hope that something that you do today would put (Munoz) in a position where she couldn’t be a mother and grandmother,” he said. “Put her away for the maximum.” Defense attorney Michael Stuzynski pleaded for leniency and asked for a 10-year sentence. He argued that Munoz, who has two children, had a history of being sexually and physically abused, but she wasn’t blaming her crime on her past. “If the maximum sentence could
bring (the Lehners) back, she would have accepted it already,” Stuzynski said. Courtney Batiste, a friend of Munoz who testified on her behalf, offered her condolences to the Lehners’ supporters in the courtroom. “Athina is not cold-hearted,” she said. “No one hates her more than she hates herself right now.” Deputy District Attorney Brian Eckhardt said that while Munoz admitted to the crime, she lied about how much she had to drink. He said her admission to drinking two glasses of wine and smoking marijuana hours before the accident didn’t correlate to her blood alcohol content, which was still more than three times the legal limit 2 1/2 hours after the crash. “There’s a difference between a confession and an admission,” Eckhardt said. “She hasn’t confessed ever… she admits `yeah, you caught me.’” After the sentencing, 18th Judicial District Attorney George Brauchler said he was happy with the terms, but he added he was frustrated that Colorado’s laws regarding DUI cases may allow Munoz to be paroled sooner than he would like. “This woman will likely do just five years of real incarceration,” he said. “This is one of those crimes that plagues every one of us.”

Boy collects teddy bears for trying times Stuffed animal helped him through a traumatic event BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
The accident was six years ago, but for 10-year-old Daniel Velasquez the fear and anxiety he felt after he and his mother were sideswiped by a truck are fresh in his memory. “I was knocked unconscious and he was in the car seat behind me,” Daniel’s mother, Suzanne, said. “He saw the whole thing.” Tears welled in his eyes as Daniel recounted the experience. He and his mother were fine in the end, but he said the accident and waiting at the emergency room while doctors treated his mother for her injuries left him “traumatized.” But a wide smile wipes all traces of fear from his face when he recounts what happened next. Parker Police Officer Casey Cashman, who responded to the accident, came to the hospital to check on Daniel and Suzanne, and he brought Daniel a stuffed bear. “I was relieved and happy,” he said. “Everything I was scared of just left me.” The accident occurred just before Daniel’s fifth birthday, and he got the idea to help other children going through their own scary experiences. Daniel asked friends that year to bring him new stuffed animals in lieu of gifts, which he then donated
Daniel Velasquez, 10, sits surrounded by some of the fuzzy donations he’s collected for this year’s drive to benefit the Parker Police Department, South Metro Fire Rescue, Castle Rock Police Department and Douglas County Sheriff’s Office.

Lone Tree may bring CU location into the fold Process underway to annex South Denver campus BY STEPHANIE MASON SMASON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
An institution of higher education could soon find itself within the Lone Tree city limits. On Jan. 10, a petition was filed for Lone Tree to annex the CU South Denver property at 10035 S. Peoria St. into the city. The building is currently located in unincorporated Douglas County, with a Parker mailing address. “We like to operate in the communities we live in actively,” Luella Chavez D’Angelo, the University of Colorado’s vice chancellor for enterprise development, said during the Jan. 17 city council meeting. “We really believe that we are part of a fabric of the community in every way, shape and possible form.” According to Lone Tree’s 2016 resident survey, only 42 percent of residents ranked existing local higher education opportunities as “good” or “excellent.” “We are very much looking forward to the dialogue and discussion,” Mayor Jackie Millet said. “It was clearly stated that the citizens here are looking for higher education.” Jeff Holwell, Lone Tree’s economic development director, said both the city and school would benefit from the annexation. “The addition of higher education to our mix with the CU branding on it is a value to the city,” Holwell said.
Benefits for CU South Denver, Holwell said, are municipal services, including public safety, last-mile transit, and local government advocacy. The location would have a Lone Tree address consistent with the surrounding region, making it easier to locate, he added. The next steps to annex the property are a public hearing and city council first reading of the annexation ordinance on March 7, city council second reading on March 21 and, if approved, an effective date of annexation on April 20. “It is very exciting for us to be considered for annexation,” D’Angelo said. “We are very grateful to Douglas County for helping us thus far. There is a difference between being in an unincorporated space and being really engrained in a community, and that is what we are looking for.” D’Angelo said the CU South Denver location serves students south of Hampden Avenue and north of Castle Rock. The location merges professors from the campuses in Boulder, Denver and Colorado Springs. On Jan. 1, 2015, the school’s building, formerly the Wildlife Experience museum — which is now part of the campus — was gifted to the University of Colorado by Dave and Gail Liniger, co-owners of RE/MAX. The location has grown from 285 course enrollments in its first semester to 817 in its third. Maureen Durkin, CU South Denver’s assistant vice chancellor for strategy and organizational effectiveness, said the location primarily serves working professionals looking to advance their education.
Governor calls for tax increase on pot sales, some homes BY JAMES ANDERSON ASSOCIATED PRESS
Faced with complex rules on state spending, the governor of Colorado is proposing higher taxes on marijuana sales and on some homes owned by seniors to fully fund public schools. Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper’s administration says the moves are needed to close an anticipated $106 million deficit in K-12 funding in the fiscal year that begins July 1. In a letter sent late Jan. 17 to lawmakers, Henry Sobanet, director of the Office of State Planning and Budgeting, said raising the recreational pot special sales tax from 10 percent to 12 percent and reducing a senior homestead exemption on property taxes from $200,000 to $100,000 would close the schools deficit. The exemption applies to people
65 and older who have lived in their home for at least 10 years. “We really have to fix school funding in the big picture. We just can’t throw senior tax exemption money at the problem and expect it to make a difference,” Republican Rep. Bob Rankin said Jan. 18. The proposals stem in part from a 1982 amendment to the Colorado Constitution that requires that nonresidential property taxes provide a greater share of the state budget than residential property taxes. Residential taxes help fund public schools but are expected to drop by $135 million in fiscal 2017-18, as the state shifts funding to comply with the rule known as the Gallagher Amendment. The move became necessary because residential property values have grown faster in recent years than non-residential values,

Legislator aims to protect Colorado’s minorities Salazar working on a bill to challenge federal changes BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
During his election campaign, President Donald Trump spoke often about deportation plans for undocumented immigrants and keeping a close eye on the Islamic community. But after Trump’s win in November, police departments in cities like Denver and Aurora said they will not enforce federal immigration laws, and Boulder’s city council unanimously voted to declare itself
a sanctuary city. Now state Rep. Joe Salazar, DThornton, is considering similar legislation for the entire state. “What I’m considering isn’t a sanctuary measure, but rather about protecting the states’ rights,” he said. “I want Colorado to be proactive instead of reactive.” The bill Salazar is proposing is still being fine-tuned, and he doesn’t have a timeline for when it will be introduced. The measure is tentatively called “The Ralph Carr Freedom Defense Act” after the late Colorado governor who accepted a Japanese-Americans internment camp in World War II and spoke in defense of internees. In its current form, the bill would stop state, cities, counties and law
enforcement agencies from providing information about the race, ethnicity, immigration status or religious affiliation of Colorado residents to the federal government for deportation or tracking purposes. Protecting the rights of all
citizens, regardless of their background, has gained renewed importance to many minority communities not just in Colorado, but in the entire country. SEE LEGISLATION, P9
Q&A with state Rep. Joe Salazar
THE BILL In the Ralph Carr Freedom Defense Act’s current form, the bill does the following: • Prohibits a state or political subdivision from providing the race, ethnicity, national origin, immigration status or religious affiliation of a Colorado resident to the federal government for any illegal or unconstitutional purpose;
• Prohibits assisting the federal government or a federal agency in marking or otherwise placing a physical or electronic identifier on a person based on his or her race, ethnicity, national origin, immigration status or religious affiliation;
• Prohibits any assistance to the federal government to create a registry for Colorado residents based on race, ethnicity, national origin, immigration status or religious affiliation;
• Prohibits aiding or assisting, including using state or local lands or resources, the federal government in interning a person based on his or her race, ethnicity, national origin, immigration status or religious affiliation.

South metro lawmakers share their views on enforcement STAFF REPORT
While most south metro area lawmakers are holding off on comment on state Rep. Joe Salazar’s pending bill that would, among other things, protect Colorado’s undocumented immigrants from federal law enforcement, some are already lining up in support or opposition. “The Ralph Carr Freedom Defense Act is about states’ rights and ensuring that Colorado law enforcement officers do not have to assist any federal program that would set up a registry for Muslims, create internment camps, or attempt to identify individuals by their race, religion, nationality, or color of their skin—all
LEGISLATION FROM PAGE 8
On Jan. 17, the Latino Democratic caucus — which includes Salazar and Senate Democratic Leader Lucia Guzman, Assistant Minority Leader Leroy Garcia, Sen. Irene Aguilar, Sen. Dominick Moreno, Speaker of the House Crisanta Duran, Rep. Adrienne Benavidez, Rep. Dan Pabon and Rep. Donald Valdez — released a
of which go against our American and Colorado values and our U.S. and state constitutions,” state Rep. Jeff Bridges, D-Greenwood Village, said. Bridges says media reports stating that Salazar’s measure would make Colorado a “sanctuary state” do a “disservice to Rep. Salazar and his proposal.” But state Sen. Jim Smallwood, R-Parker, has labeled the proposed legislation “alarmist political grandstanding.” “I think it is dangerous, irresponsible and unfair for a city, county or state to create rules that protect illegal immigrants from the proper authorities, and I would oppose any such legislation,” Smallwood said.
statement about the importance of protection. “Nationally, over 900 suspected hate incidents have been reported, including several in our state,” the statement said. “Many people are also worried about potential changes that would impact people of color, immigrants, Muslims, women, members of the LGBTQ community and the environment.” The statement ends with a pledge that “Colorado does not endorse hate. We will do everything
Salazar, D-Thornton, has not yet introduced his bill at the Capitol, and for that reason, most area lawmakers interviewed said they would not comment on the measure. Leaders in south metro communities have not followed Boulder’s lead in declaring their municipalities sanctuary cities, but talk of the move took place recently at a public meeting in at least one south suburb. In Englewood, a city council discussion last month addressed the possibility of becoming a sanctuary city after the issue was brought up by a community group. No official action was taken, City Manager Eric Keck said. He said the city supports a position paper by the Colorado Association of Police
we can to protect the rights of all of our residents and to defend against any efforts that seek to harm our communities.” The sentiments are echoed by area organizations like the Golden Relief Group, an advocacy group for refugees and immigrants. “It’s about the basic feeling of our common humanity,” said Golden resident Judy Denison, a leader in the group. “If we’re not going to be good to the poor and huddled masses, we might as well tear down the Statue of Liberty.”
Chiefs stating that immigration law is a federal responsibility and it is not the role of local police departments to assist with deportation efforts. Shortly after Donald Trump’s election in November, Denver and Aurora police announced they would not begin enforcing federal immigration laws. Cmdr. Trent Cooper, spokesman for Littleton Police Department, said his department is not empowered to enforce federal law. “We take enforcement action based on violations of state or municipal law, regardless of a person’s immigration status,” he said. “All are treated equally in that respect, regardless of citizenship or immigration status.”

Here are some questions that might make us think just a bit differently WINNING WORDS
Michael Norton
T
here are two old proverbs I would like to share with you this week. The first is this, “An unfriendly person pursues selfish ends and against all sound judgment starts quarrels.” And the second one is this, “Fools find no pleasure in understanding but delight in airing their own opinions.” Well since typically I share my opinions way too often in these columns, I thought maybe this week I would shift it up a little bit and ask more questions as opposed to sharing opinions and observations. And is it OK if I ask you to write back and answer or respond to any or all of the questions posed? The first question I would pose would be around another famous thought shared by
many authors and experts, “Seek first to understand and then to be understood.” What has happened to us as a nation as we have endured this past election season and outcome of the election? Have we really forgotten to seek first and then to be understood? The second proverb I quoted above seems to capture this, and unfortunately and rightly so has found us playing the role of the fool and worried more about airing our own opinions than seeking to understand others. Long before the election, leading up to the election, and now post-election, there have been stories of marriages ending, friendships being destroyed, business partners separating, siblings who have stopped communicating,
co-workers refusing to work together or even talk. There has been documented violence that speaks to the first proverb I shared, “An unfriendly person pursues selfish ends and against all sound judgment starts quarrels.” The questions are just too many to list in a short weekly column, so let’s just start with a few questions, shall we? Is this who we have become? Have we become a society and culture that now relies on the freedom and accessibility that social media outlets provide to air our own selfish opinions? Have we come to the point where we don’t even form our own opinions or sound judgment because we rely on what SEE NORTON, P11

n December, the Dalai Lama spoke during the Emory-Tibet Symposium of Scholars and Scientists at the Drepung Monastic University in India. According to Atlanta-based Emory University, “the ultimate goal of the symposium is to build a bridge between two complementary systems of knowledge.” Andrea Doray Why am I quoting the EmoryTibet Symposium? Because of what the Dalai Lama said there, in an interview with CNN. Although His Holiness considers America the “leading nation of the free world,” the Dalai Lama also acknowledged that our country is a democracy where the “power is divided.” Yes, ours is a country divided — rather than shared — in which a lot of people are angry, a lot of other people are angry at the people getting

angry, and civility seems to be a veneer stretched too thin on both sides to conceal the contempt and derision below. His Holiness had offered some advice for finding equilibrium in any situation: self-compassion. As opposed to self-esteem or self-respect, self-compassion is defined by some scholars as open to and touched by our own troubles, worries or fears, and yet not avoiding them or disconnecting from them. An important piece of self-compassion is to be nonjudgmental about what is causing us pain, even when we mess up or are experiencing some other form of emotional pain. In our divided world, we are beyond judgmental with each other. We are vitriolic in our namecalling, our shaming, our senses of entitlement. We are so certain of our own beliefs that anyone — and I mean anyone — who stands for an opposing viewpoint becomes a target of scorn and hate. SEE DORAY, P11

f all the things to be heartbroken about in 2016, the separation and divorce of HGTV’s “Flip or Flop” stars was not one of them. For me. There has always been an interest in the personal lives of well-known people, even if their notoriety is dubious. That why we have autobiographies and biographies. It’s an industry to follow and document personalities. A paparazzi’s photo of a celebrity up to no good can put a lot of money in his pocket. If you have ever wondered where the word “paparazzi” comes from, here it is. Paparazzo was the name of a news photographer in Federico Fellini’s 1960 film La Dolce Vita. Fellini said, “`Paparazzo’ suggests to me a buzzing insect, hovering, darting, stinging.” I have another, unprintable, name for men and women who poke into the private lives of anyone with a telephoto lens. I don’t care how much weight someone has gained or lost, or what they had done to their lips.

Others do, and (seem to) subsist on the ups and downs of the “Bachelors” and the “Bachelorettes.” Why is Johnny Deep’s Craig Marshall financial Smith report in the front pages of a daily? I became aware of an interest in named names for the first time when I heard that Eddie Fisher had his eye on Elizabeth Taylor, when he was still married to Debbie Reynolds. Fisher and Reynolds were supposed to conform, I guess, to an idealized vision of love and marriage. “Stay put,” America said. It impacted Fisher’s career, and many cheered when Taylor hooked up with Richard Burton.

The divisions are sharp, wide, deep. No wonder so many of us feel a bit battered, bruised. In the interview, His Holiness said that, basically, “nothing exists as it appears,” and I’m reminded of a graphic I saw of an intersection where a car, a bicycle and a pedestrian appear to be on a collision course. Thought bubbles tell us what’s going on for each. To paraphrase, the woman at the wheel of the car is fretting because her child is sick and she had to leave work. The person on the bike is wondering where next month’s rent will come from, and the pedestrian is preoccupied with his own medical problem. They are unaware, of course, of each other’s struggles. Each of us faces our own battles, every day. So this means that everyone else we meet or interact with or email

we hear or read through the posts of others? Some we know and some we have never met. I mean day in and day out someone invariably shares with me that they have deleted more friends from their Facebook account because they can no longer stand the rhetoric. I wonder if that might be an interesting statistic for Facebook to share, how many people have been unfriended over the past few months? In the continued spirit of asking questions instead of pontificating, when did we stop thinking for ourselves? Now I am not saying that everyone has, but would you agree that there seems to be a lot of jumping on some else’s bandwagon going on? Do you think we should start or maybe just get back to having sound judgment and making our own decisions based on our own true belief systems instead of being held hostage of the belief systems of others? Do you think that if we found our way back to staying true to our belief systems, and if we took the time to listen and seek to understand others first that we may save a few marriages, friendships, working relationships, and heartache?
or text or, or, or … is also fighting some sort of battle, that may or may not have anything to do with political divisions. I’m not sure which needs to come first, though, compassion for self or compassion for others, in which we are touched by someone else’s suffering, we are aware of their pain, and we are not judging them. Clearly, neither is easy, or we’d all be fine all the time! It is possible for us in America to “build a bridge between two complementary systems of knowledge”? Can we practice compassion, including selfcompassion, for better understanding of the other sides of the divide? For my part, starting this weekend — oh, mercy, starting right now! — I’m going to practice self-compassion. If it’s good for the Dalai Lama, it is definitely good for me! Andrea Doray is a writer who finds that it really does take work … and that’s why it’s called practice! Contact her at a.doray@andreadoray.com.
Do you think that there is a certain percentage of the population that simply likes to stir the pot, acting the fool just to start a quarrel? When you think about this for yourself and for your own family and friends, how many times have you changed the channel on the television or logged off of the internet because it was just too much to handle? For me the final question is this, “Is it time for change?” And not the “Hope and Change” of a campaign speech, and not the change that a new president may or may not bring about. I am asking if it’s time to change for us? For you? For me? For all of us? Is it time to be reminded that an unfriendly person pursues selfish ends and against all sound judgment starts quarrels? And should we also think about the fact that it is fools finding no pleasure in understanding, but that they delight in airing their own opinions? How about you? How have you or would you respond to the questions above? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we can get back to seeking to understand and then to be understood, wouldn’t you agree that it really will be a better than good week?

Emily with Norm. I realized then that it was human nature to take a vicarious interest in the goings-on of others. Later, as a college art professor, I became the subject of rumors that continue, like a noir film, to follow me out of the past. We are often flawed characters. If we weren’t, where would literature and cinema and songs be? “Your Cheatin’ Heart” was a hit for a reason. Would you go to a film about a couple without conflicts of any kind? Probably not. I know someone who doesn’t seem to know anything that is going on in the world of entertainers outside of entertainment. I don’t know how she does it. She must have bought a filter on Amazon Prime.
I have come to the conclusion that we all need distractions from the important stuff. Otherwise, why would over a million people in a 650,000 population town show up to celebrate a professional football team? I have tried to look at this from both sides. Believe it or not, that’s what I do with just about everything. I am a known humbug when it comes to human excesses. And we excess all over the place. Charles Dickens’ books were serialized. All of them. That means they weren’t published all at once. It was a brilliant idea for its time. Anticipation is an exciting thing. We want to know what is going to happen next to our favorite distractions. The next thing you know, we’re flipping and flopping all over it like the dickens.

Asset-seizure fund supports teen suicide prevention BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock has donated $25,000 from money confiscated in drug deals and other organized crimes to a Douglas County School District program that combats teen suicide and bullying. Sources of Strength, which seeks to prevent suicide, violence, bullying and substance abuse by training peers to know warning signs and connect at-risk friends to resources, operates in 12 district schools. “What we see when our Spurlock schools adopt Sources of Strength,” said Staci McCormack, the district’s prevention and school culture coordinator, “is we all become much better at preventing suicide, acts of school violence, bullying and substance abuse.” McCormack called the donation
“super-exciting,” saying it will help the district expand the program in the district. State law allows law enforcement agencies to once a year gift to community programs up to $25,000 from their asset forfeiture funds, or money that has been seized from criminal activities. The Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office has previously put that money toward Y.E.S.S. — a program operated by the Sheriff ’s Office, neighboring law enforcement agencies and schools, which teaches students about teen relationships, internet safety and substance abuse. Emerging issue But suicide prevention has emerged as a key issue among youth. Approximately two years ago, the Douglas County Youth Initiative, a group that coordinates youth services and asseses youths’ needs, began looking for ways to prevent teen suicide, said Marsha Alston, the initiative’s
youth service program manager. The program’s 2015 Youth Congress, an annual event where area students bring their tops concerns to local officials, also targeted suicide prevention, Alston said. When the Youth Initiative learned that some Douglas County schools used Sources of Strength, it connected the program with the Sheriff ’s Office. So the initiative wrote a grant proposal. A panel consisting of the sheriff, a county commissioner and the district attorney chose Sources of Strength from among 6 applications. “One life lost to suicide is too many,” Spurlock said in a written statement. “If I could contribute any amount of money to suicide prevention and only one life be saved, it is worth the money.” A different lens Sources of Strength, which has local chapters across the U.S. and Canada, trains anyone and everyone, from administrators to teachers to
students or other caring adults, McCormack said. “This is about all of us just having a different lens on when we go through our daily walk,” she said. “It helps really create a shift in the culture of the entire school.” The peer-based program teaches people how to connect a friend in need with help, she said. That help can come in many forms. For a student, it may mean connecting a friend with a trusted adult. Feedback has been positive, McCormack said. One middle school student reported they wouldn’t have thought to connect a friend with resources, assuming instead that listening to their struggle would be enough support, if it weren’t for Sources of Strength. That, McCormack said, is an example of a culture shift. So “to be able to use these kinds of dollars in such a supportive and positive way...to be able to expand the work of Sources,” Alston said, is “just wonderful.”

Civilians get a taste of military-style exercise

uby Herrera has brought an aspect of her military training into her fitness regimen. Rucking — carrying a weighted pack — is a trendy exercise with unglamorous roots in the military, where it is a staple of training. Part of the test for U.S. Army infantry soldiers to earn the coveted Expert Infantryman Badge is to complete a 20-kilometer march carrying a 35-pound rucksack, along with other gear, within three hours. “I love using a variety of training to stay conditioned,” said Herrera, a Colorado Springs resident and security forces specialist in the Air Force Reserve. “Rucking is the perfect addition to any type of programming I might be involved with.” Former Army Special Forces soldier Jason McCarthy of Jacksonville, Florida, brought rucking to the masses in 2008 when he founded GORUCK after leaving the service. There are now hundreds of GORUCK events across the U.S. and in Europe, including several in Colorado. However, ruck march challenges go back long before McCarthy started. One of the most popular events is the annual Bataan Memorial Death March, which dates to 1989 and pays homage to U.S. and Filipino prisoners of war who were forced by the Japanese Imperial Army to march 60 to 70 miles with little food or water in 1942, during which thousands died. Sponsored by the New Mexico State University ROTC department and the New Mexico National Guard, the memorial march is held at White Sands Missile Range in southern
WORK OUT WITH YOUR RUCK Proponents of rucking say that the weighted pack can also be used in alternative workouts. Here are a few movements GORUCK says you can do with a rucksack: Squats: Hold the pack out in front of you and do a normal squat.
New Mexico and gives participants an option of a 14.2-mile route and a 26.2mile one, carrying a 35-pound pack. A cardio-strength workout Now, rucking draws servicemembers, veterans and civilians alike who want to bring diversity to their exercise routines. “It’s portable,” James Finch, of Lakewood, said. “You don’t need a gym.” Finch, 39, started rucking about two years ago as a way to challenge himself. It fits neatly with his other fitness passion, obstacle course racing. “When I take the dogs for a walk, I throw the ruck on,” he said. GORUCK says that rucking can burn as many calories as running, while allowing people of different abilities to do it together by carrying different weights. Finch credits fellow obstacle course racing enthusiast David Tatham with introducing him to it. Tatham, of Henderson, said he began rucking in 2012, when he first signed up for one of the challenges hosted by GORUCK. He has since started his own organization that hosts ruck events around the Front Range, Burden Operation Company. “Anybody can do it,” Tatham said.
RUCKING EVENTS
t t t g a n a b a p
Overhead weighted sit-ups: Hold the pack over your head while doing sit-ups.
GORUCK host its challenges throughout r the U.S., with several in Colorado.
Weighted pushups: Strap the pack onto your back and do normal pushups.
Upcoming events: March 3 and 4, Pueblo March 11, Boulder May 5 and 6, Colorado Springs June 2 and 3, Boulder June 30 and July 1, Denver July 28 and 29, Fort Collins Sept. 8 and 9, Colorado Springs
Overhead weighted lunges: Hold the pack over your head while doing lunges. “You can throw on a halfway decent backpack.” Obstacle course racing is another fitness trend with close ties to the armed forces, with military installations, including Colorado’s Fort Carson, hosting events for Spartan Race, the largest entity in the young sport. Aaron Varcasio, who coaches Crossfit and high-intensity interval training workouts at FIT Littleton and has taken part in GORUCK events, said that rucking can be an effective cardio alternative to running as well as a form of strength training. “It challenges you because you’re used to hiking without weight,” he said. Challenging the mind, too Herrera sees rucking as the perfect way to train both mentally and physically. “Rucking has taught me that my body is capable of so much more than my mind had previously restricted me to,” she said. “I can add a ruck to almost any activity and see huge improvements all around. I love the feeling of pure exhaustion after pushing myself to the limit and then stepping over that limit to keep going.” In March 2015, not long after he began
For more information, visit www. goruck.com. rucking, Finch attempted the Baatan Memorial but had to quit around mile 18 because of severe blistering on his feet. “I’ve learned to take care of my feet better,” he said. 2016 was to be Finch’s redemption year at White Sands, but he suffered a stroke just weeks before the event. He spent 11 days in the intensive care unit and another 20 in inpatient rehab. He recovered from his stroke to go on to complete in several Spartan Race obstacle course events in 2016. From Finch’s point of view, rucking is easier on his knees and ankles than running and carries a lower risk of injury. Finch used to carry nearly 50 pounds in his ruck, but he’s still working on getting back to form following his stroke. “It makes life easier when you’re doing anything else — you take it off and you’re lighter,” he said. “You feel like you can run 100 mph when you’re done rucking.”

Option puts primary focus on the patient Some doctors are transitioning to concierge health care
Dr. Michael Mignoli’s private practice has recently changed from primary care to concierge primary care to focus more on his patients and less on charts and insurances. He says that though he makes less money, he is happier than ever before.
BY STEPHANIE MASON SMASON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Dr. Michael Mignoli recalls spending eight to 15 minutes with patients during exams when he ran his small, primary care practice for 22 years. He admits to having only enough time to treat the biggest issue before moving on to the next patient. Now, he says it is not uncommon for him to spend 1 1/2 hours with a patient during an annual exam at his Lone Tree practice, Vanguard Primary Care. His availability to thoroughly evaluate an individual is the result of his practice’s transition into concierge medicine in October. “When you only have eight to 10 minutes, you figure out the Band-Aid for the biggest thing that is bleeding,” Mignoli said. “In this model you are able to address everything, not only all the problems and all the complaints of a patient, but also take it a step further and do a deeper dive into prevention.” Concierge medicine is a retainer model of medical
STEPHANIE MASON
practice in which patients pay an annual fee to have access to a primary-care practice. “Medicine in the past 40 years has really evolved to the negative,” said Terry Bauer, CEO of Specialdocs Consultants, an Illinois-based company that helps doctors transition into a concierge practice. “Physicians have become almost manufacturers. Concierge medicine gets back to the way medicine and primary care is intended — focusing on the patient and their whole personal wellness.” Of the nation’s 275,000 primary care doctors, between 8,000 and 10,000 doctors practice some kind of retainer membership, said Bauer, who has been researching concierge medicine since 1999. From what he has studied, retainer medical practices grow
approximately 15 percent a year. Bauer sees the model providing not only preventative care — saving a patient from future health problems — but also quality post-situation care, giving a patient with the care needed to make a full recovery after an event like surgery. “If a doctor has more time and is more satisfied in his or her work, patients will receive better care,” Bauer said. “It is good for the doctor, it is good for the patient and it is good for the United States in terms of cost reduction.” As insurances reimburse less for medical services, Mignoli said it is becoming less viable to operate an independent primary care practice. Shifting his practice to a concierge model, he said, was the best business move.
“Health care is costing more and more,” Mignoli said. “There has been pressure from government and insurance companies and patients to cut costs, and this is how that is being done. One of the consequences of that is that it is impossible to continue a small primary-care practice.” In the Highlands Ranch and Lone Tree areas, Mignoli knows of six other concierge medical practices. He believes more small health-care providers will make the switch in years to come. “The number of practices that I know of has increased remarkably over the last 10 years,” he said. “It really is one of the few options for a small primary-care practice to remain as that kind of practice.” At Mignoli’s practice, an annual fee of $2,100 covers office visits, lab tests, selective vaccinations and a comprehensive wellness exam. He does not accept insurance. Time and access are the most important parts of a concierge practice, Mignoli said. To ensure that he can provide an excess of those components, Mignoli sees far fewer patients than the average practitioner. The average concierge medical practice will see an average of 300 to 600 patients,
20 percent of what average practitioners shuffle through their office, Mignoli said. Patients have Mignoli’s personal cell phone and can contact him after hours and on weekends. He will travel to a hospital or visit a home if a patient cannot make it to his office. “The reason that I did this was that I believe patients deserve to have a deeper level of relationship with their physician,” Mignoli said. “I make less money now than I did before, but I am happier and my patients are happier.” Marie Degennaro, a patient of Mignoli’s for more than 10 years, decided to stay with Mignoli when he made the transition. “He is so caring and so knowledgeable,” Degennaro said. “He always answers my calls — I can always get in to see him. He spends a lot of time with us and answers all my questions, no matter what they are.” Mignoli’s office, located at 9218 Kimmer Drive, Suite 106, sees patients from Castle Rock, Lone Tree, Parker, Highlands Ranch, Centennial and Denver. “I feel more like a doctor than I ever have before,” Mignoli said. “I feel like I am doing more patient care as opposed to chart care.”

New luxury senior facility opens in Lone Tree Ribbon-cutting celebrates Morning Star Senior Living’s 20th community BY STEPHANIE MASON SMASON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
In the lobby at the new MorningStar Senior Living at RidgeGate, a single tree statue represents the facility being part of the Lone Tree community. PHOTOS BY STEPHANIE MASON
More than 200 attendees surrounded the statue of a tree — its leaves designed by community members and new residents with the help of an artist — and listened to Ken Jaeger, CEO and founder of MorningStar Senior Living, introduce his newest community, MorningStar Senior Living at RidgeGate. “I am amazed how God honored this from day one,” Jaeger said, standing in the lobby of the new building at the Jan. 11 ribbon-cutting ceremony. “I really believe there is a sense of calling in all our lives to put out arms around the seniors who choose to call this wonderful community their home.” The four-year development and construction of the $56 million senior living center wrapped up early this month. Residents started moving in Jan. 4. Morning Star Senior Living at RidgeGate, 10100 Commons St., is a five-story facility offering independent living, assisted living and memory care. The 265,000-square-foot community includes a restaurant, cafes,

Month-tomonth rent starts at $3,075. “I expected it to be nice, but I am speechless and dumbfounded by how beautiful this facility is,” Lone Tree Mayor Jackie Millet said. “I really could not have contemplated what a pleasant experience it is to walk through these doors and into this environment… On behalf of the city of Lone Tree, we would like to welcome you.” Jaeger, whose father recently moved into the facility, wants to create a quality living experience for seniors. “We want to be a home and a company where goodness and kindness is the norm, rather than the exception, when it comes to team members loving on our seniors,” Jaeger said.

Ponderosa senior Katie George is fouled by Castle View’s Halle Hamilton during the Mustangs’ 55-41 Continental League win on Jan. 19 at Rock Canyon. George, who finished with 15 points, made a key three-point shot in the fourth quarter to stall a Jaguars rally. JIM BENTON
Ponderosa holds off Rock Canyon Mustangs player’s three-pointer helps tamp down rally by Jaguars BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Katie George couldn’t believe she was standing with no defensive player close to her. So, she took advantage. George made a three-point basket with 2:59 remaining in the game to help Class 4A Ponderosa stave off a Rock Canyon rally as the visiting Mustangs outscored the Jaguars 14-4 the rest of the contest to earn a 55-41 Continental League basketball victory on Jan. 19. “It was an open shot so I took it,” George said. “This was a big win because we play against bigger schools and any time we have a chance to win we have to do it. We didn’t win a game in the Continental League last season.” Rock Canyon had trimmed a double-
digit Ponderosa lead to four points at 41-37 when George swished the threepointer. “We got it down to four and that three-pointer was a killer,” Rock Canyon coach Becky Mudd said. Key moments Ponderosa ran off eight straight points at the end of the second quarter and scored the first four points of the third quarter, and that 12-0 spurt helped the Mustangs grab a 13-point lead. Rock Canyon, which shot 25 percent for the game, was scoreless for 3:05 during that stretch. Key players/statistics Ponderosa’s Ashleigh Ellis, a 5-foot-7 senior, took game scoring honors with 19 points, while seniors George and Maddie Gabel each had 15 points. Senior Julia Doherty scored six points to start the fourth quarter to help Rock Canyon pull to within four points and she wound up with a team-high 14 points. Sophomore Mara Power had eight rebounds for the
Jaguars. Rock Canyon committed 21 turnovers during the game compared to 16 for the Mustangs. They said it “We’ve had some tough games but the girls have been working hard to get to this point,” said Ponderosa coach Pat Ford. “If we keep playing team basketball, we’ll be OK.” Ponderosa has managed just two winning campaigns in the past 11 seasons but after the win over Rock Canyon the Mustangs were 9-5 overall and 2-1 in the league. “Any team in this particular league that we can pick up a win, we need to go try pick up that win,” added Ford. “Our defense has been the key to keeping us in games this year. We were down three people from our normal varsity team against Rock Canyon. Two were sick and one has a knee strain. That was a really big win when we can come out and beat a Continental League team missing three people.” SEE BASKETBALL, P31

hen Ashley Zoerner said that she started riding her bike without training wheels when she was 3, I figured she must be a pretty good cyclist. And for a change, I was right. Zoerner, a senior OVERTIME at SkyView Academy in Highlands Ranch, won the Junior Women’s 17-18 Cyclocross National Championship, held Jan. 3-8 in Hartford, Connecticut. It took Zoerner 39 minutes, 43 seconds Jim Benton to finish on the course covered with snow, ice and ruts. She was seventh overall in the Women’s U23 division and earned a spot in the 2017 Bieles UCI Cyclocross World Championships Jan. 28 and 29 in Bieles, Luxembourg. Cyclocross is an off-road event in which riders can encounter grass, dirt, mud, gravel, sand, hills and sometimes snow. Courses include barriers no more than 18 inches tall and cyclists often put their bikes on their shoulders to get over barriers and through thick mud. “The toughest part of a race is when I have to do a lot of running,” Zoerner said. “We usually have to get off our bikes and run over barriers. Anything you can’t ride over, you have to get off your bike.” Zoerner, who plans to go to college next year and hopes to get on professional teams for both road cycling and cyclocross, has her sights set on a good finish in the world championships. “I hope to be competitive, ideally in the top 20,” she said. “This is my first year and I’m one of the youngest girls competing in the category. I just want to have a good race and see if I can compete on the international level.”
Drawing attention It’s sometimes hard to get attention while playing on a basketball team that is struggling. Littleton’s Sam Kail and Garrett Martin of Standley Lake are two of those under-publicized players — but they haven’t been overlooked by opposing defenses. Kail, a 5-foot-10 senior, is scoring 18.6 points a game for the 1-12 Lions. Coach Ryan Fletcher points out that Kail is the focus for opposing defenses and he’s had to work hard for shots and been forced to shoot from farther out this season. Still, he has scored 20 or more points in seven games. Martin, a 6-foot junior, is scoring 19.5 points per game for the 2-13 Gators. “He’s a special athlete and a better person,” coach Mike Puccio said. SEE BENTON, P31

Wolverines take fifth at swim meet Young Chaparral team turns in solid performance at Smoky Hill
‘We are kind of a young team this year with only two seniors on the roster.’ Warren Ross,
BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Editor’s note: The following article is being republished because the original version that ran last week misrepresented which school athletes and coaches were from. Normally, wolverines aren’t known for their swimming ability, but the Chaparral Wolverines knifed through the water as they finished fifth in the 13-team field at the Jan. 14 Smoky Hill Invitational Swimming and Diving Meet. ”We are a new, young group,” Wolverines coach Gayle Schurz said during the meet. ”We graduated five kids who went to the state meet last year, so we are almost a brand-new team, a new group. We are a young team and our kids are learning to swim strokes they haven’t done before, so we have entries in all swimming events.” She said there are 33 swimmers and three divers on the roster. The coach said all three relay teams have posted state qualifying times, plus two of the swimmers are already state qualifiers.
Ponderosa coach ”We feel those accomplishments mean our team is doing well,” she said. Heidi Waldmann swims for the Chaparral team. ”My grandmother started me in swimming when I was about 5 and I fell in love with the sport,” she said. ”I know swimming requires a lot of hard work, but that is part of what I love about the sport because all the hard work makes the efforts pay off.” She said she swims the individual medley, which means she swims all the strokes, but she said her favorite event is the breaststroke. ”When I was little we started off doing the frog kicks and I loved doing that,” she said. ”So I guess because I love frog kicks and frog kicks are part of swimming breaststroke, is why I love the breaststroke.” The walls surrounding the Smoky Hill pool shook with cheers and shouts of encouragement by teammates,
friends and families as hundreds of swimmers and divers took part in the day-long competition. The meet stretched through most of the day. Hundreds of swimmers and divers arrived for the morning’s preliminary competition. The top 18 entries that turned in the best times or posted the best diving scores advanced to the meet finals. The finals were a series of three heats, A, B and C, in each of the 11 swimming events, with athletes seeded according to their preliminary performances. The field also was trimmed to 18 for the diving event. The Wolverines didn’t have a firstplace finisher in the A finals, but Hannah Swier took top honors in the B finals of the 100-yard butterfly and teammate Tacy Marsh was the first swimmer to the finish line in the 500yard freestyle C finals. Chaparral scored points in the two of the A finals relays as Mary Burks,
Heidi Waldmann, Lauren Kline and Abby Ulrich teamed up to post a time of 1:55.44 to finish third in the 200-yard medley relay. Later in the meet Kline, Waldmann and Julia Scadden made up the Wolverines’ 200-yard freestyle relay that finished third in the A finals with a time of 1:44.89.. Team points were awarded for finishes in the heats. Heritage won the meet team title with 528 points and Legend finished seventh with 212 points. Other area teams at the meet and their places included Douglas County in fourth place, Legend finished in fifth place and Ponderosa in 11th place. “We are kind of a young team this year with only two seniors on the roster. But we are having a good meet today and a good season so far,” Ponderosa coach Warren Ross said during the meet. ”We have 35 on the roster and all our kids are working very hard. The hard work is paying off as we have a number of individuals who have qualified for state, which we feel is gravy because, as a young team, we didn’t expect that to happen. We are working to build a good program and I feel the success so far will help us do that.” Ponderosa’s best finish was the combined effort of Catherine Fulton, Carley Hogen, Olivia Smith and Katlynn Stephens that won first place in the 200-yard freestyle relay C finish.

Few pools available for schools
Many teams in metro area must head off campus to practice and compete BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
Athletes like Kiara Jasunas and Holley Dennis sometimes feel they have been left high and dry as high school swimmers. There are 29 girls swimming teams in the north, south and west metro areas covered by Colorado Community Media, but only four teams — three in the Littleton Public Schools District and Cherry Creek High School — have swimming pools on campus. That makes it inconvenient for swimmers, who must practice at outside facilities. Money is spent on rent
and the workout sessions are often at inconvenient times. “I’m used to having to rush to practices or rush to try to make a meet,” said Jasunas, a junior at Mountain Vista in Highlands Ranch. “We have to leave class early to make a meet, whereas if we had a pool, we could have extra time in our classes. I drive myself, but usually we have big car pools going and take whoever we can grab.” Dennis is a Mountain Vista freshman who isn’t old enough to drive. “It’s really hard because my mom can’t take me to the 3:15 practices,” Dennis said. “So I have another parent that takes me and a couple other girls to practice because my mom has to work until 4.” Swimming isn’t the only sport that has to search for places outside the school grounds to practice and play.

teams face the same problems. Coaches and athletes are quick to list the disadvantages of not having a pool in the building, starting with the times for practices that sometimes interfere with school work, problems with getting enough pool time for both varsity and junior varsity swimmers, and the cost to rent recreation centers for practices and meets. “Not having a pool definitely creates problems because it’s not only all the four (Highlands Ranch) high schools that are fighting over pool space, but there are year-round club teams,” Dennis said. “We have these crazy times where we have to race out of school to get to our 3:15 practice. Some practices are like at 7:30 to 9 at night and we have other things to do, so if we don’t get it done before practice we have to stay up even later than 9:30.”

A place of their own As schools with pools, Arapahoe, Littleton, Heritage and Cherry Creek can include swimming in the physical education curriculum and can schedule practices before or after school. They also can rent pool time to club teams or other schools to help defray the expense of maintaining a pool. Arapahoe girls and boys swimming coach and physical education teacher Mike Richmond said he gets students from his swimming classes to go out for the team. Some have become good varsity swimmers. “I walk in the pool every day and feel very fortunate to be in a school with a pool,” Richmond said. “No doubt, we get kids to come out for the team. There is networking that goes on about the culture of swimming at our school. There is a lot more support in general.” SEE POOL, P32

POOL FROM PAGE 24
No one interviewed was comfortable estimating the cost of building a pool at a school or the upkeep costs. But according to USA swimming, the estimated cost to construct a pool is $180 a square foot. Depending on the pool size and the deck, the price tag for a pool could range from $850,000 to more than $3 million. This doesn’t include the price for spectator seating, showers, dressing rooms and offices. Estimated operational costs, according to USA Swimming, run from $113,400 a year to $244,440, depending on size. All the schools in the Cherry Creek School District except Overland have pools. Larry Bull, the district’s athletic director, said the pools are beneficial and some of the operational costs are offset by rental agreements. Finding alternatives No schools in Douglas County or Jefferson County have pools in the building. Douglas County District Athletic Director Derek Chaney said the district picks up the cost of rental for its Highlands Ranch and Parker schools and has an agreement that allows the Castle View/Douglas County co-op team to swim at the Castle Rock Community Recreation Center. Chaparral travels to Grandview to practice and Legend rents time from Cherokee Trail for practices.
Heritage swimmers look to their coach for instructions for the next portion of their practice session while many of their teammates wait on the pool deck for their turn to practice. TOM MUNDS Jefferson County does not offer compensation for the rent of recreation centers, so athletic fees for swimmers are hiked, an additional $100 for example at D’Evelyn, and swimmers have fundraising activities during the season to help with expenses. The Veterans Memorial Aquatics Center in Thornton is an Adams 12 Five Star Schools facility. It was built with a joint-use agreement with the city. District high school teams have priority over any other users.

“The city owned the land, sold it to the district with the understanding that the facility would be leased to the city at a discount rate,” said Legacy High School coach Diana Wiles. “It works very well. A district pool is more practical than a single high school having their own pool.” But some, like Mountain Vista coach Rob Nasser, are left wishing they had access to an on-campus pool. “I think the best answer for every-
one (in Douglas County) could very well be a district pool that mirrors VMAC in Thornton, but scheduling at a facility like this could still become problematic,” Nasser said. “However, in my decades in the area, it’s apparent that as poolstarved as we are here, multiple pools at schools wouldn’t go to waste at all. Yes, many programs are doing well, but many of us sure wonder if we aren’t missing out on many additional opportunities by not having pools at our schools.”
