Parker ofﬁcer recounts ice rescue Trey Biles reﬂects on last month’s incident By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com Trey Biles was the first emergency responder on scene when three Legend High School students fell through ice covering a retention pond in the Hidden River subdivision. The Parker police officer was responding to a 911 call made by two young girls who were in the vicinity of the Jan. 14 accident, which resulted in the deaths of two of the teens, Patric Lantz and Max Gantnier. During a press conference Jan. 29, Biles recount-

ed the minutes in which he pulled out the only person visible in the pond, Cole Robinson. Biles arrived on scene 2 1/2 minutes after the call came in. As he reached the top of a small hill near the pond, Biles remembers seeing an aspen tree that had just been cut down. He grabbed the 15-foot tree, went onto the ice and extended the limb out to Robinson, who was struggling to keep his head above water. Biles said he later learned that Robinson had been in the water for nearly 15 minutes before Biles arrived. “From what I’ve heard, Cole’s core temperature was only a degree warmer than Max’s, so… he wouldn’t be able to survive much longer,” said Biles, who has been

with the Parker Police Department for two years. Gantnier passed away in the hospital 11 days after the incident. Lantz was in the water for more than 30 minutes and was pronounced dead soon after being removed from the pond. Biles has spoken with Robinson several times since the incident and said he will continue to have contact with the teen and encourage him to live his life. Biles was asked Jan. 29 whether he believes he is a hero. “Something I’ve said to Cole since then, and I truly believe it, is one of the most heroic things I’ve ever seen is Cole grabbing onto that branch, because he had no Rescue continues on Page 7

Locals join lineup for Puppy Bowl Dumb Friends League sends three to join annual event By Shanna Fortier sfortier@colorado communitymedia.com

Ollie is a 2.75-pound poodle mix that played for Team Fluff in the soon-to-air Puppy Bowl. He lives in Centennial.

Three puppies from the Dumb Friends League — two from Colorado — were drafted to star in Puppy Bowl XII to complete Animal Planet’s roster of adoptable players. The Dumb Friends League is among 44 shelters and rescue groups representing 25 states across the U.S. and Puerto Rico participating in Puppy Bowl XII. All three of the Dumb Friends League’s puppies were adopted following the event. The Puppy Bowl is recorded each year and then is aired on Animal Planet on Super Bowl Sunday. Puppies play in a model stadium as commentators weigh in about their actions. “The Puppy Bowl is more than entertainment,” said Megan Rees, public re-

lations manager for the Dumb Friends League. “It encourages adoption, a message that is ingrained in every aspect of the event. We are proud to partner with Animal Planet to help drive that message into millions of homes across the country that will be watching.” Meet the players Moose Weighing in at 2.54 pounds, Moose, a 3-month-old poodle mix, will be representing Team Fluff. He first entered the Dumb Friends League as part of a large neglect case from southeastern Colorado. The day that he returned from taping the bowl in New York, Moose’s adoption contract was permanently signed with a loving new family in Parker. “He’s been wonderful,” said Jenny Kuist, who adopted Moose, now renamed Rico. “He’s really rambunctious but also a cuddler.” Puppy continues on Page 23

Parker is partnering with the state to add 4,000 feet of sidewalk to the east side of South Parker Road. The project — scheduled for the latter half of 2017 — would cost approximately $600,000 to construct, with 80 percent of the costs covered by federal transportation funds. The 10-foot-wide pathway will lead from the Sulphur Gulch Trail, near the Goodwill store, to Plaza Drive. Town council will decide Feb. 16 whether to approve an ordinance that allows the town to use its power of eminent domain to acquire six separate rights of way along South Parker Road. The easements — ranging in size from 67 square feet to 9,550 Path continues on Page 4

HELLO

... My Name Is

A glimpse of the people in our community

HEATHER PETERSEN Theater lover, quality care worker About me I was an Air Force brat and grew up in several areas of the United States, including Cheyenne, Wyoming, where I spent my teenage years. I graduated from the University of Wyoming and moved to Denver in 1993. My husband, Scott, and I bought our first home in Parker in 2001. We fell in love with this community and have resided here since.

Denver Center for Performing Arts. We are members at Black Bear/Blackstone and spend a lot of time at both of these amazing country clubs. We travel a lot, including a yearly trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. I enjoy hiking, exercise, movies, and attending sporting events both at the college and professional level. My husband played professional golf on the PGA Tour’s Web.com and Canadian Tour for many years, so golf is a big part of our life. My son has played since he was 3, but is just now taking it more serious. Me? I am a great spectator only but love the sport. Time to relax I enjoy spending time with friends from Wyoming, as many of us are transplants to the Denver area. I have made lifelong friends here in Parker as well. I exercise and watch mindless TV shows such as “The Bachelor,” which is cheap entertainment. My fur child, Chip, is a Mal-Shih; (Maltese Shih Tzu mix) who I love to take on walks. He pretty much rules the house and, he would like to think, the neighborhood.

A typical day I proudly work part-time at Parker Adventist Hospital in the quality department, which ensures that patients receive an excellent provision of care. My awesome 11-year-old son, Blake, attends a private school in Denver, so a lot of time is spent commuting him to school. This takes bonding to a new level when your kid is stuck with you in traffic, but we enjoy it. Another positive is he has become very diverse in ’80s hard rock!

How I feel about winter I always say I will take living here with a few cold months over anywhere with heat and humidity. Plus, we are south facing so we don’t have to deal with the snow that never melts! We plan much our traveling during the winter season!

Just for fun I attend shows with my family at the (PACE) Parker Arts Culture & Events Center as well as the

Team Rubicon brushes up on chainsaw skills Team that aids in natural disaster relief includes many military veterans Staff Report Praying Hands Ranch opened its property Jan. 24 to allow members of Team Rubicon to practice chainsaw skills in preparation for natural disaster relief. The team unites the skills and experiences of military veterans and first responders to rapidly deploy disaster response teams. Team Rubicon, which includes civilian members, operates under the mantra “Disasters are our business. Veterans are our passion.” “They are dedicated to using their valuable training by giving back to the community by offering their services. This group of trained responders run to the disaster while everyone is running away,” said Kathryn Waldheim, who helps with outreach at the Praying Hands Ranch, a nonprofit on the Douglas-Elbert county line that provides equine therapy to those with disabilities. The group that trained Jan. 24 included veterans from the Navy, Army, Special Ops and Marines. The chainsaw workshop is one of many various training sessions required for team participants. Team Rubicon, Region VIII, is one of the largest and most active in the U.S. Team Rubicon was called into actions in recent years to help with earthquake relief in Haiti, flooding in Lyons, Colorado, cleanup after Hurricane Sandy and a EF-4 tornado in recent Garland, Texas.

Man faces charges of assault on ofﬁcer Aaron Kuss, 27, is being held on $750,000 bond Staff report A 27-year-old man was arrested after Parker police say he rammed a patrol car in the parking lot of a charter school and caused a minor injury to the officer. Aaron Kuss, of Cherry Hills Village, was taken into custody after a chase that ended near E-470 and Gartrell Road. Parker police officers stopped a black Mercedes sedan when the vehicle failed to stop for a stop sign at 11:17 a.m. Jan. 27. The stop was made in the parking lot of American Academy Charter School, located at 11155 Motsenbocker Road in Parker.

The female officer was standing next to the Mercedes speaking to Kuss when he suddenly put the vehicle in reverse, Peters said. The officer was struck by the Mercedes’ open door. The nature of the inKuss jury was not specified. The Mercedes then hit a patrol car that was assisting on the call. The injured officer was assessed by a doctor, but was not transported to the hospital. Kuss then allegedly fled the scene as pursuing units attempted to stop the Mercedes. A Parker police sergeant decided to call off the chase for public safety reasons and because there was not an imminent

threat to officers, said Lt. Chris Peters, public information officer for the Parker police. A law enforcement bulletin with information about the vehicle was sent out to metro agencies. A Douglas County Sheriff’s Office deputy spotted the vehicle in the area of Meridian Village Parkway and Mainstreet. Deputies attempted to stop the vehicle, but the driver took off. Stop sticks were deployed and the Mercedes drove over them. The driver continued to flee from deputies while driving on the vehicle’s rims. Deputies then utilized a “precision immobilization technique” — or PIT maneuver — and were able to safely stop the car, according to a joint statement from the Parker Police Department and Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. A PIT maneuver is tactic in which a pursuing

square feet — are owned by commercial entities and are currently undergoing an appraisal, said Chris Hudson, project manager for the Town of Parker’s Public Works Department. The $600,000 construction tab doesn’t include the funds needed to acquire rightof-way properties. The vast majority of property needed to build the sidewalk lies within the Colorado Department of Transportation’s right-of-way, Hudson said. The addition of a sidewalk will give residents a better opportunity to use multimodal transportation to get around. As it stands, traveling from the Sulphur Gulch Trail to the Regional Transportation District’s park-n-Ride lot on Longs Way, for example, is difficult because of the absence of a sidewalk, Hudson said. Nonetheless, pedestrians find a way. “It gets used,” he said, referring to the shoulder of the busy state highway. “You can see the path worn in along the road.”

From left, Michael Armendariz and Steve Davis wait for a bus at South Parker Road and Plaza Drive. A new sidewalk on the east side of Parker Road will lead from the Sulphur Gulch Trail to Plaza Drive, ending where the men are pictured. Photo by Chris Michlewicz Steve Davis, a resident of Denver who works in Parker, is accustomed to walking on uneven terrain to get to an RTD bus stop at South Parker Road and Plaza Drive. He says construction of a sidewalk in 2017 is much sooner than he would have expected,

but might be too late for him to use. “By the time they get done, I’ll be in another job,” Davis said. The Town of Parker had been turned down in recent years when applying to the Denver Regional Council of Government,

car forces a fleeing car to abruptly turn sideways, causing the driver to lose control and stop. Kuss allegedly resisted arresting officers and was Tasered. He was taken into custody without additional injuries to deputies. Kuss was booked into the Douglas County jail on charges of second-degree assault on a peace officer, vehicular eluding, reckless driving, reckless endangerment, failure to observe/disregarding a traffic control device, passing on the left when prohibited by markings, driving a vehicle with a suspended license, and criminal mischief. He is being held on a $750,000 bond, said Michelle Yi, spokeswoman for the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office. Kuss’s Facebook profile says he is a record producer and model.

which disburses the federal funds. Parker showed this year that the enhancement was needed to improve multimodal transportation, a goal of town council, Hudson said. Sidewalk gaps have long been a source of frustration for pedestrians trying to get to bus stops and businesses around Parker. The town completed a project in 2012 that filled some of those gaps on the west side of South Parker Road. The ultimate goal is to have sidewalks on both sides of the highway throughout the town. “It’s something that’s been talked about at the town for 15 years,” Hudson said. The ordinance going in front of council Feb. 16 would provide authorization to use eminent domain in the event that “good faith negotiations” with the property owners break down, Hudson said, adding the move is a “last resort.” The town is seeking temporary easements from the private property owners. A sidewalk exists in certain locations along the east side of the road, including the west side of O’Brien Park. If approved, construction would take about three months to complete. Money for engineering and acquisitions was included in the 2016 budget; funding for construction would be allocated next year.

Event ‘strives’ to offer help amid struggle

Community of Care Network holds event in Castle Rock By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Stacey Hudgens and her family have been living motel to motel for the past year. “It’s been pretty tedious,” she said, adding that they are currently living in a Super 8 in Douglas County. Her family was one of the many that attended Strive to Thrive, an event that brought together 35 agencies offering a variety of assistance to Douglas County families. “My husband and I are having some hard times right now, and this is just a great resource for our family,” Hudgens said. “To know that there’s food available at all times and you don’t have to go hungry is inspiring.” The eighth biannual Strive to Thrive Resource and Service Fair, hosted by Douglas County’s Community of Care Network, was Jan. 26 at Calvary Chapel in Castle Rock. The free event is designed to help teach attendees how to take advantage of free food and clothing, medical assistance and more, while giving them the opportunity to receive many of those benefits on site in a one-stop shop setting. Attendees were able to walk away with new warm clothes as well as food provided by food banks. They also learned about employment opportunities and how to apply for food stamps. Free haircuts, dental checkups, free stress tests and wellness checks were also available. “The hair cutting was excellent,” Hudgens said, touching her freshly cut hair. “I

Lance Mettler, of Project ReCycle, hands out bikes to youths at the Strive to Thrive event hosted by Douglas County. Photos by Shanna Fortier needed that. Years ago I should have gotten one, but I didn’t — I kept putting it off.” Project ReCycle was also at the event handing out free repurposed bicycles to youths. “My daughter got a bicycle,” Hudgens said. “At Christmas, she wanted one and, I

couldn’t afford it. But now, she’s got it. It’s just a great thing.” Organizations participating in the event focused on education, employment, family services, health care, housing and utilities, nutrition and transportation. “I think it’s important people know

that these agencies are here to take care of them,” said Chuck Vogel, volunteer with the Parker Task Force. “Douglas County is perceived as a well-off county, but we took care of 10,000 people at our task force last year. Even though our income level is high, there is a lot of need in our county.”

Planning commission OKs motorsports draft regulations Staff was directed to further address the proposed accessory-use category By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com After almost two hours of discussion and testimony from close to 40 people Jan. 25, the Douglas County Planning Commission recommended approval of proposed motorsport regulations, with specific instructions to staff to further address the proposed accessory-use category. While most speakers were pleased that county staff worked hard on establishing regulations, many were concerned with the accessory-use category, which did not have any proposed regulations. “The lack of enforceable regulations in rural residential neighborhoods for accessory use has me concerned,” Travis Frazier, of Parker, told the planning commission. “Our properties are large enough to provide space for activity, but not large enough to provide buffers from neigh-

bors. The noise, dust and eyesores created by motorsports affects property values and quality of life.” Comments like that from residents throughout the county pushed the planning commission to instruct staff to further address the proposed accessory-use category before the regulations go before the Douglas County Board of Commissioners, which is scheduled for March 8. Motorsports is defined by the county as the operation of motor vehicles, motorcycles, off-highway vehicles and/or snowmobiles for practice, education, recreation or competition. The regulations in question mainly pertain to motorbikes. Debate on the issue of motorsport uses on rural residential land in Douglas County was sparked Oct. 27 when the Douglas County Board of County Commissioners placed temporary regulations on motorsport uses, while directing staff to establish permanent zoning regulations. County staff faces the challenge of finding middle ground between the competing values of county residents who want the freedom to use their land as they want to for motorsport activities and those who

want to protect the quiet, rural living environment they enjoy. As a result, staff came up with three regulatory approaches for motorsport use. The first approach refers to motorsport activities falling in the accessory-use category. Accessory use is the operation of off-highway vehicles for recreational purposes, where the activity does not require moving more than 50 cubic yards of dirt. This activity would be allowed on lots of at least 4.5 acres, with a residence established. This type of activity is personal use only and no changes to the regulations on this use were established in the presentation. The second approach deals with tracks where large graded features are purposed. These areas would be subject to special review. Property of 35 acres or greater eligible for this provided the track is for personal use and a private residence has been established on the land. Regulations on these types of properties include a submission of a land-use application, a site plan to include the proposed track and any beaming or screening, and a man-

agement plan that identifies operational limits, including the number of riders at a time and the hours of operation. The review would include a public hearing in front of the planning commission and special review approval. The track would be subject to at least one annual inspection and the applicant would be responsible for providing a noise study showing that use will not result in noise levels greater than 55 decibels 25 feet beyond the property boundary. The third approach deals with public motorsport facilities, which are allowed in the commercial, industrial and general industrial zones subject to a site improvement process. A noise study may be required. “The proposed regulations seek to achieve the appropriate balance of values and expectations for the county’s rural residents as they’ve been expressed to staff,” Avery said. The full 700-page proposed regulations can be viewed by the public at www.douglas.co.us/proposed-zoning-regulationsfor-motorsport-uses-on-rural-properties/.

Proposed drone limits falter again

Armed man enters bank, orders customers to floor

For third straight session, legislators say no to rules

Suspect got away with cash, person of interest sought

By Kristen Wyatt Associated Press

Staff report

Drone limits keep going down faster than a paper airplane in the Colorado General Assembly, which is bucking national headwinds to curb private drone use. A House committee voted unanimously on Jan. 26 to kill Colorado’s third annual attempt to restrict private drones. The bill was watered down to ban only drones used to deliver contraband to prisons. But opponents pointed out that prison contraband delivery is already a crime by any means. “It’s really not a necessary bill,” said Vic Moss, owner of a suburban Denver photography business and a drone enthusiast. They argued that even a narrowly tailored drone limit could hamper commercial development of the new technology. The hearing attracted a wide variety of business lobbyists. “We don’t want to see people doing bad stuff

An armed man got away with an undisclosed amount of money after ordering bank customers to the floor during a robbery in Parker. The robbery occurred around 12:15 p.m. Jan. 28 at the Champion Bank located at 16790 Centre Court, near Lincoln Avenue and Jordan Road. The suspect is described as a black male, 6 feet tall, thin build, wearing a gray sweatshirt and sweatpants. The suspect was disguised with a nylon mask, fake mustache and beard, and was armed with a handgun that appeared to have a laser sight, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office said. The suspect ordered customers to the floor at gunpoint and fled. Authorities are asking for assistance in identifying the person of interest. The man was in the bank on Jan. 25, and may have additional information that could assist with identifying the suspect.

machine” during the incident, demonstrating both urgency and a methodical approach under pressure, King said. Biles said he heard from a third-party source that the teens were trying to help one another escape from the frigid waters after they fell through the ice. “I have heard that Max couldn’t swim and that was part of the reason why there was so much screaming and thrashing around, and I have heard that Patric was trying to help him stay above water,” Biles said. Biles, who fell through lake ice as a child when he was ice fishing but was able to remove himself from the chestdeep water, responded to a call one day before the tragedy about kids playing on a different sheet of ice. In the days after the Hidden River, Biles said he caught teens from Legend High School on a frozen pond and said he had difficulty containing his anger. He says public education is key to preventing another similar tragedy. Since the drownings, the Parker Police

dexterity in his hands and he was able to grab it with his forearms and be pulled up on the shore,” Biles said. After rescuing Robinson, Biles went back out onto the ice and used the tree to probe the hole where the boys had fallen in. He said there were no signs of life and the water was too murky to see beneath the surface. If he had seen either of the other teens, Biles said he’d already made the decision to dive into the water. “I believe that I did everything that I could have, but you will always kind of think back and wish you could have done more,” he said. Parker Police Chief David King, who arrived on scene shortly after Biles and assisted his officers, said he was proud that Biles’ quick thinking helped prevent further tragedy. Biles was “like a

with them any more than anyone else,” said Chris Huston of a drone industry group called Unmanned Aircraft Systems Colorado. The bill had Democratic and Republican sponsors and originally covered airports, too. One of the sponsors argued that drones near airports are causing frequent flight cancellations and endangering fliers. “With the emergence of new technologies, I just want to make sure the public is protected,” argued Rep. Paul Rosenthal, D-Denver. The National Conference of State Legislatures reports that 26 states have some limits on drones. Arkansas bans drone voyeurism. California has limits aimed at banning paparazzi from private land. New Hampshire bans drone use for hunting, fishing or trapping. But drone limits have become perennial losers among Colorado lawmakers. Two years ago, a proposal to limit how law enforcement uses drones drew an unusual show of opposition from state administration. Agencies ranging from the Office of Economic Development and International Trade to Colorado Parks and Wildlife showed up to take the unusual step of testifying publicly against a bill.

Department has purchased 75 ropes, each with a throwing apparatus, and every officer now has them in their patrol cars. Biles, a former parks and wildlife officer, also was credited with helping save a man in October by administering CPR and using an automated external defibrillator to revive him.

He has replayed the Jan. 14 rescue in his mind multiple times and still struggles with the thought that more could have been done. “It’s difficult to process,” he said. “I mean I’m extremely happy that Cole made it out of the water, but your heart is broken for not being able to help the other two.”

Two ways to ask same question Typically when we are having a conversation and the question pops up — “Why does this keep happening to me?” — it is most often regarding something negative or a bad or troubling situation. I mean, most people never really contemplate that same question when things are going well, or do they? We all have those people in our lives who lament or dwell on why bad or troubling things keep happening to them, and although some of them just think it to themselves over and over again, others will make sure they continue to ask you, me, and anyone else who will listen that same question, “Why does this keep happening to me?” So let’s look at this in two ways. First let’s think about the people we know who are continuously in this situation and walk around like Eeyore from “Winnie-the-Pooh.” Do they really want to find a solution to the recurring problems or do they just want to keep the embers of discouragement and disappointment burning so that they can share their problems with anyone who will listen? Or are they just so stuck in a bad cycle and so close to the situation that they really do need help in figuring

out an escape route or new strategy? Assuming they truly want to break the cycle, there are many options including counseling, change in attitude, change in behaviors, and other solutions they can pursue. The second way to look at this is underMichael Norton standing why there are people who ask the very WINNING same question, but ask WORDS it or state it in a positive way. They may ask or say something like, “I can’t believe this keeps happening to me, I am so very blessed.” They continue to meet new friends, experience success at work, build deeper relationships, achieve goals, realize dreams, and live in a sense of inspired purpose and comforting peace. The difference between the two is the attitude and the behaviors. The person who can

claim that they are blessed or lucky lives with an attitude of gratitude. They live in a spirit of servant leadership, they give of themselves and give back financially where they can, and they also live with an abundance mentality as opposed to a scarcity mentality. People who think positively and are driven to act upon their goals with a sense of purpose and passion will never complain about why things keep happening to them; instead they will give thanks and show appreciation by continuing to expand upon the positive attitudes and behaviors that bring them peace, joy and satisfaction. These are the people who grow beyond success and into significance. The business owner who has too much turnover or whose business is flat or declining, the salesperson who isn’t meeting quota, the person who is unhappy in their job, the spouse who is feeling unfulfilled, they may all ask the question “Why does this always happen to me?” But the business owner who is thriving, the salesperson who is exceeding expectations, the person who goes to work Norton continues on Page 9

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Property should be reassessed only when sold Like most of my neighbors and your readers, I recently received my tax bill based on a reassessment of my property that increased in value by 23 percent. While the boom in Colorado real estate prices is a nice psychological boost for property owners, we have no way to monetize the increase in the value of our real estate without selling it. We pay our property taxes out of our current income, which, sadly, did not increase by 23 percent but rather by 2 percent to 3 percent. In the interest of a fairer property tax code, property should be assessed when a house is sold and future increases in the assessed valuation should be limited to the increase in inflation until the house is sold again. In this way, people will be able to afford their property taxes the entire time they live in their home and won’t be subject to the vagaries of the real estate market. I encourage everyone to write their Colorado legislators and demand that they change the law and formula for property reassessment. Joan Ebersole, Lone Tree

Hard to warm up to new appliance What I have for you today is another sign of the apocalypse. Samsung is selling its new refrigerator for $5,000. You can probably talk them down to forty-eight. Why is it so expensive? It takes a picture every time you close the door. It doesn’t take a picture of you. It takes a picture of itself. It takes a picture of what’s left inside. Then the pictures are uploaded on the Internet, and you can stand there and block the aisle at the grocery store and look at them. Lord forbid you run out of brown eggs or kale. I have a 23-year-old refrigerator and it refrigerates just fine. It doesn’t have an ice maker or a backup camera. It doesn’t tell me if the atmospheric pressure inside is sufficient for noodle salad. If I pick up the bacon, it doesn’t warn me, or tell me what’s going to happen to my insides if I eat it. It’s just a refrigerator. It’s not a Family Hub. That’s what Samsung is calling its new

refrigerator. I have a few things around here that I consider to be purposeful technology. I am writing on one of them. I can instantly contact a friend in California or Japan. Craig Marshall Smith I can find a video of A-Ha QUIET “Take on DESPERATION singing Me.” It’s a great video. I have a digital camera that can record pictures of my dog, and turn them into a beautiful 8”-by-8” Shutterfly book, without ever talking with anyone at Shutterfly. Shutterfly can use their technologies to put the same images on coffee cups, calendars and mouse pads. I don’t want a car that drives itself. I don’t want a car that parks itself.

SCFD bill is not the right ﬁt The Scientific and Cultural Facilities District reauthorization bill, SB-016, falls short of good government ideals. Here’s why: Accountability SB-016 assesses tax through 2030, funding Tier I (Denver Center for the Performing Arts, Art Museum, Botanic Gardens, Museum of Nature/Science and Zoo) automatically without oversight or policy objectives. These organizations will receive over $500 million regardless of need or performance. Inclusivity Arts funding tends to overlook the poor, disabled, people of color and youth. When those communities are engaged, expressing their cultural and artistic voices, their experience bridges divides and builds healthy communities. Tier III organizations have a good track record performing these functions, and SB-016 fails to support them. Growth and equity Regional growth has been dramatic the past 25 years, yet SCFD’s process failed to evaluate growth projections and future needs. This oversight is seen in the attendance shift since 1990: Tier I attendance grew by 65 percent, and Tier III by 736 percent! Tier I and their advocates crafted the funding formula under the direction of the chair of the Tier I lobbying entity. The mandate was for incremental change with Tier I funds to exceed inflation and those powerful organizations benefiting disproportionately. For good government, SB-016 should

Staying active is crucial for older adults

As you grow older, an active lifestyle is more important than ever. Regular engagement in activities can help boost energy, maintain your independence, and manage symptoms of illness or pain. With many baby boomers already retired or approaching retirement, it is critical to consider activities that help maintain or achieve optimal levels of health. “What is good for the body is good for the brain,” is a saying we frequently hear and it rings true even when you reach the golden years. How we live our lives can affect how we age. Recreation facilities provide services and amenities such as SilverSneakers fitness classes, tai chi, aqua aerobics, balance improvement, Arthritis Foundation programs and various other services for active aging adults. Some facilities offer one-on-one aquatic therapy training, which is the use of water (or warm water) as a way of improving health while coping with disease or physical discomfort. Water relieves the effects of gravity on the body, giving a sense of weightlessness. This weightlessness alleviates the painful stress on joints or muscles while also providing resistance. The warm water in a therapy pool can also stimulate

the touch receptors on the skin, increasing blood circulation and releasing tight muscles. It is important that older adults participate in regular physical activities. Studies Deni Jacobs suggest that exercise can lower the LIVING AND risk of dementia AGING WELL by 50 percent to 60 percent, and decrease the risk of Alzheimer’s disease by 60 percent (Eckmann, 2011). Other fun activities beneficial to active adults are card games such as bridge, cribbage and euchre. Skills required for these games include concentration, strategizing and working with a teammate to triumph over an opponent. A study conducted at the University of California-Berkeley showed that playing bridge regularly appeared to be tied to players’ immune systems producing more T-cells, which the body uses to fight

infection. Other benefits of playing card games include keeping the brain stimulated and alert and keeping the memory active (Smith, 2010). Starting or maintaining regular activities can be a challenge as you get older. You may feel discouraged by illness, ongoing health problems, or concerns about injuries or falls. A CTRS (certified therapeutic recreation specialist) is a qualified provider of therapeutic recreation, or a personal trainer can help get you started with the appropriate activities. Therapeutic recreation, also known as recreational therapy, is a process that uses recreation as a means of treatment intended to restore, remediate and rehabilitate a person’s level of functioning and independence in everyday life activities. Therapists work with clients to improve their health and wellness as well as reduce or eliminate the limitations and restrictions caused by their illness or disabling condition. A CTRS can provide one-on-one support and supervision for individuals requiring assistance during traditional recreation programs on an asneeded basis and may lead various programs, classes and special events.

Participating in programs and movement activities can lead to benefits in everyday living such as living independently at home longer, walking to the grocery store to pick up groceries, or even taking fewer prescription medications. Common goals for active adults include social interaction, cognitive stimulation, learning new skills and opportunities for selfexpression through crafts. Participants can also acquire a reduction in anxiety, stress and depression, decreased focus on pain, and increase in independence and self-esteem. Here in Douglas County, there are many community centers where you will find a variety of recreational opportunities for active aging adults including pools, fitness rooms, and group exercise classes. Affordable short-term and long-term memberships are available for individuals, or you can pay as you go with daily admission passes. For more information or to find a CTRS near you, contact your local parks and recreation department or senior center.

Young Mormons seek to spread faith, attain spiritual growth through mission trips Members ‘called’ to service through prayer, inspiration Staff report Every echelon of leadership in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints is the result of a member being “called” to voluntarily serve in his or her respective role, said Dale Lyman, a stake president in Parker. Individuals have “free agency” at all times, which means they can decide for themselves whether to accept the position, Lyman said. Unforeseen family circumstances, for example, could be a reason for declining a leadership role. The spouse of each person being called is also asked if he or she will support the other in the position. Callings are determined by lengthy prayer and “done by inspiration,” said Lyman, who was asked to become a stake leader. A church bishop meets with counselors and leaders of each ward to discuss calls. “They will pray to determine through the Holy Ghost who would best serve and benefit from that calling,” he said. Highlands Ranch resident Kristyn Wilcox, who grew up in a Mormon household, jumped at the opportunity to join the women’s leadership structure called the Relief Society. As president of the Relief Society in her 350-member ward in Highlands Ranch, she volunteers on Wednesdays and Sundays to teach young women ages 12-18 about contributing through faith. She organizes and oversees activities and occasional weekend retreats. Wilcox still has fond memories of being in such a group as a youth. “We shared our spiritual thoughts about our savior and our heavenly father and our role here on Earth, but we also had a ton of fun,” she said. “We played kickball, went on hikes, had campfires, and all kinds of good stuff.”

The family unit, said Dale Lyman, a stake president in Parker, lasts forever. “We believe that families last in life as well as in eternity,” Lyman said. “Everything we do as a church is to help the

The faith-based altruism has grown so strong it has reached beyond the borders of the U.S., where the religion got its start.

Colorado Music Hall of Fame highlights state’s varied scenes When most people think about Colorado music, John Denver is the first name that comes to mind. That’s understandable, especially since his last name is literally the state capital and “Rocky Mountain High” is the state’s co-official song (the other is “Where the Columbines Grow” for you triviaheads out there). There’s a lot more to the Colorado music scene than Mr. Denver, and that’s one of the key messages the Colorado Music Hall of Fame conveys. “We want it so that when anyone comes through the door, there will be someone they recognize,” said Gene “G.” Brown, director of the hall. “We don’t only want to celebrate the heritage of Colorado music, but the current musical community in Colorado.” The hall of fame started in the 1stBank Center in Broomfield. But its outreach was limited, since it could only really be opened during events, Brown explained. Eventually, an agreement was reached with the City and County of Denver, and through Comfort Dental’s sponsorship, the hall was able to set up a more permanent location in June at Colorado’s live music epicenter — Red Rocks. The hall set up shop at Red Rock’s Trading Post, and now is open 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily, which allows not only concertgoers but also trail runners, exercisers and musical pilgrims to stop in and learn about the many gems in Colorado’s music history.

As the first inductee in 2011, and the most recognizable name in the state’s musical history, Denver gets pride of place, with a statue outside the trading post and a full room dedicated to memorabilia and facts Clarke Reader about his legacy. One of his sterling LINER achievements was NOTES performing at Red Rocks 17 times. “Instead of trying to set up some kind of hierarchical induction program, we thought it would be better to induct peer groups,” Brown said. “We’ve turned the induction ceremonies into events unto themselves, and we get contemporary musicians to fill the gaps in some of these lineups.” So far, inductee eras include the ’60s, which included artists like the Astronauts and Flash Cadillac; the folk-rock scene of the ’70s, including Judy Collins, Poco and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band; and early promoters Barry Fey and Harry Tuft. The 2016 inductees, announced Jan. 26, focus on Colorado’s jazz scene. Glenn Miller, Paul Whiteman, Lannie Garrett, Max Morath, Billy Murray and Elizabeth Spencer will all be inducted in April.

Reaching out Kristyn Wilcox, a mother of four who lives in Highlands Ranch, said her son is planning to leave for a mission after completing high school in May. The 18-yearold’s destination has not been decided, but Wilcox is confident he will be kept safe by the mission president and his wife in whichever location he is sent. She expects her son will attain spiritual growth and a new cultural experience. “He had some thinking to do about it, but I think he believes in the gospel enough to be excited about this chance to share his testimony,” Wilcox said. “It’s not only trying to convert people. Missionaries are involved in countless hours of community service wherever they go, and just to try to make every little corner of the world a better place.” By the end of high school, most teenage boys have a natural urge to explore and engage others, she said. Like others on mission trips, he will be unable to return home for the time he is gone and can call his family only twice a year. But, like Hunter, he will be able to email his family once a week. But the absence is for a good cause, Wilcox said. Her son is “motivated to do this for our church and his personal relationship with heavenly father.” “There will be tears,” she added. “But there will be any time he moves away from home.”

The mission of missionaries After completing high school, young men and women in the LDS Church often embark on a voluntary mission to preach the gospel — their destinations determined by church elders. Men go on two-year missions and women for 18 months, said Lyman, who has had four of his six sons serve missions. A fifth — his 18-year-old son — is expecting to learn in the coming weeks where he will serve. Missionaries in south metro Courtesy photo Denver traditionally use bicycles or cars to get around and deliver their spiritual message. However, the mode of transportation is up to mission leaders. Aside from receiving a book called “Preach My Gospel” to help guide them through outreach, the decision on who serves a mission mostly comes down to the worthiness of each individual, said Lyman, who went on a mission to Peru when he was 19 years old. “The key thing is that they’re living the church’s standards, they know the testimony of Christ and are following the Ten Commandments,” he said. “They also talk about how the church has impacted them.”

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK Selection: Future’s “Purple Reign,” released as a free mixtape online Review: Future was perhaps the biggest breakout in rap last year, despite having been around for years, and he extends his dominance into 2016 with this tape. The Atlanta rapper still buries his aching heart in woozy beats and codeine mumbles, but here he manages to pull the listener into his broken world.

Favorite song: “Inside the Mattress” Best line that sounds like a brag, but is actually heartbreaking: “Hit another city, and another city, I was just grooving I was trying to tell you I was losing I was gon’ tell you I’m improving.”

The hope is to soon move on to more contemporary musical figures, Brown said, which could include everyone from Big Head Todd and the Monsters to The Fray and Pretty Lights. As someone who has been immersed in the musical scene for years, both as a fan and writer for The Denver Post, Brown is a veritable fount of knowledge, and he has stories and tidbits about every musical figure. Walking through the hall, he points out facts like how the Astronauts were bigger than The Beach Boys in Japan, or that the Eagles were such acolytes of Poco’s sound they lifted the band’s bass player — twice. But his best stories are the personal ones he’s seen and heard firsthand. Brown tells a beautiful story about local supergroup Sugarloaf’s induction in 2012. At the time, vocalist and keyboardist Jerry Corbetta was battling

dementia, and wasn’t expected to play at the ceremony. Because of a little miscommunication, he ended up on stage and in front of his keyboard for the band’s last number. As Brown recalls, at first Corbetta was just playing some basic chords, but before long, his fingers began flying over the keys like he was Beethoven. “I still get choked up thinking about it,” Brown said. “He didn’t know where he was, but he knew when he put his hands on his instrument.”

associated with the Mormon religion in Palmyra, considered the birthplace of the LDS church, including the farm where Joseph Smith lived as a boy and where the first edition of the Book of Mormon was printed. Although sharing the church’s message was her primary purpose, the trip was never about the number of conversions, she said.

Hunter was proud to have had a hand in leading three people to become baptized, the first covenant of the church. A senior couple who initially had reservations was among them. “It was so incredible to see that God has softened the hearts of these people — and they were against it,” Hunter said. “And they had us come back and they accepted.”

LDS CHURCH BACKGROUND The Book of Mormon, a collection of writings from ancient prophets and record keepers, is a “second witness” to the Bible of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, according to Dale Lyman, a stake president in Parker. One of these prophets, Lehi, lived in Jerusalem around 600 B.C. God commanded Lehi to lead a small group of people to the American continent. God continued to call prophets among these people. An angel named Moroni told Joseph Smith that a record of the ancient inhabit-

ants of the American continent was buried in a hill in Utah and that the record contained the gospel of Jesus Christ. By the inspiration of God, Joseph Smith translated into English the ancient text written on golden plates. The book’s complete title is “The Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ.” It tells of the resurrected Jesus Christ and His visit to His faithful followers in ancient America. It is named after Mormon, an ancient prophet who made an abridgment of the sacred records of his people. Source: Mormon.org

Denver-based Chimney Choir and the Ian Cooke Band will accompany the dancers.

Ammon’s “Love of My Life” includes the choreographer’s take on “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “We Are the Champions” by Queen. His “An Occasional Dream” is created to the music of David Bowie, such as “Life on Mars,” “Time,” and “Space Oddity.” Cellist and rock musician Cook said “playing the music of Queen and David Bowie with our friends in Chimney Choir is an absolute honor.” He and Chimney Choir’s Jesse Manley have brought people from their younger audiences to discover dance performances.

Tale of the tape

By Howard Fendrich Associated Press Peyton Manning is the only fivetime MVP in NFL history, one of the faces of the league and, at 39, the oldest starting quarterback to lead a team to the Super Bowl. Slowed by age and injury, he is no longer the record-breaking passer he once was. Most folks figure Manning’s fourth Super Sunday appearance will be his last game as a pro. Cam Newton is at the opposite end of his career, just 26, making his debut in the big game. He is part of a new Peyton Manning breed of dual-threat quarterbacks as good at running as they are at throwing. When Manning’s AFC champion Denver Broncos play Newton’s NFC champion Carolina Panthers for the Lombardi Trophy in Santa Clara, California, on Feb. 7, much of the focus will be on the two quarterbacks who were No. 1 overall draft picks 13 years apart. “Oh, wow,’’ Newton said. “Playing ‘The Sheriff.’ ” That is a reference to Manning, who is 1-2 in past Super Bowls. He won a championship with the Indianapolis Colts in 2007, lost with the Colts in 2010, and lost again with the Broncos in 2014. But this is a different version of Manning. Yes, he’s still as good as anyone at diagnosing defenses and changing things up — or appearing to, anyway — at the line of scrimmage. Yes, he’s still out there yelling “Omaha!’’

Cam Newton / Shutterstock “He most certainly is a Hall of Famer,’’ Panthers coach Ron Rivera said. But Manning is not quite as capable as he was, once upon a time, when it comes to putting the football exactly where he wants it, especially on deep routes. This has hardly been a record-setting season for Manning — or, until now, one worth remembering. Overall, the bad far outweighed the good, including one game with a passer rating of 0.0, 17 interceptions to only nine touchdown passes in the regular season, being sidelined for six weeks with a series of injuries, getting relegated to backup duty in the NFL for the first time, and vehemently denying a report linking Manning’s wife to the banned drug HGH. “My role has been different and my contributions are different,’’ Manning said. “But I’m fortunate and grateful that I have the opportunity to contribute still,

in some way. And it’s a great honor to be going back to the Super Bowl.’’ While Manning was something of a game manager in helping direct the Broncos to wins over the Steelers and Patriots in the AFC playoffs, Newton was dynamic. Newton threw for 335 yards and two touchdowns, and he ran for 47 yards and a pair of scores, leading Carolina past the Arizona Cardinals 49-15 in the NFC title game. It was the type of performance he put on all season, the sort of promise he showed while winning a Heisman Trophy in college at Auburn. “I keep saying it: We’re not finished,” Newton said. “We’re not finished.”

OUR GAME >>> 50 YEARS OF THE SUPER BOWL

ColoradoCommuntiyMedia.com

BRONCOS, SUPER BOWL MAKE FOR A WILD RIDE Super Bowl 50 will be the eighth time the Broncos will play for the NFL championship. And this is the eighth time I have failed in the lottery to have a chance to purchase Super Bowl tickets, despite being a season-ticket holder for more than four decades. Maybe that’s why I shy away from buying Powerball tickets. However, I was lucky enough to be at Super Bowl XXXIII as a writer for the Rocky Mountain News. That was Jan. 31, 1999, when the Broncos beat Atlanta for their second consecutive title at Pro Player Stadium in Miami. Since I was a late addition to the coverage team, I missed all the media-day hysteria and didn’t have to do any of the advance stories. I did arrive in time to accompany friends for a dinner in South Beach. The atmosphere plus the pre-game and halftime activities were something to experience. It was bedlam after the game trying to get comments from players only to have a surprise waiting when returning to the makeshift press box that was located in the stands. It had rained, but some heads-up press box attendant had put the laptops of reporters under the tables so the computers didn’t get waterlogged. John Elway became the oldest quarterback to start in a Super Bowl and later that summer announced his retirement, which could turn out to be one of several similar links to this season’s team. On the home front It was terrific to attend a Super Bowl but it’s also been fun to observe how Broncomania runs rampant before the big games.

The

SUPER SHOW @

Fans paint their houses, sheds, hair and fingernails orange and blue. Billboards and business signboards offer words of encouragement and buildings are lit up with the team colors. The star atop the rock Jim Benton in Castle Rock will once again shine with orange and blue lights this week. In 1988, the Rocky Mountain News ran an advertisement of man offering to trade his wife for two Super Bowl tickets. Luckily, it was a prank, since the Redskins whipped the Broncos 42-16 in Super Bowl XXII. I can remember sitting in section 306 of the old Mile High Stadium on Jan. 1, 1978, watching Otis Armstrong lean past the first-down marker late in the game to seal Denver’s 20-17 win over defending champion Oakland to earn the Broncos their first trip to the Super Bowl. The crowd noise and reaction of the fans was deafening and I couldn’t hear anything my son was saying. That Broncos team had the Orange Crush defense and an offense that did enough to win, although they lost Super Bowl XII and the next three in which they were participants. Many halfhearted Broncos fans didn’t want Denver to make another Super Bowl appearance and get embarrassed by another blowout loss. In Super Bowl XXXII against the heavily favored Green Bay Packers, Denver captured its first NFL championship with a 31-24 win in San Diego. That set off some unruly celebrations in Denver.

WHO IS GOING TO WIN

THE SUPER BOWL? Colorado Community Media reporters asked people around the metro area their predictions for the big game.

“I believe the Broncos are going to win. They play to the level of their competition. Any team that’s heavily favored against the Broncos can attest to that, e.g. Green Bay, New England. What do they say — defense wins championships.”

“The Broncos, because of Peyton Manning. It will probably be his last game.” Mel Bell, Littleton

“I think it is going to be 45-7 Panthers. If you have seen the Panthers play, they are a highly motivated team that plays like they are having fun every day.” Dennis Phinney, Castle Rock

Dick Okimoto, Thornton

“The Broncos, if their defense shows up. And, if DT (Demaryius Thomas) catches the passes thrown to him, (Ronnie) Hillman doesn’t fumble and the cornerbacks and safeties can cover the Panthers’ wide receivers. Also if Von Miller and Demarcus Ware can get to Cam Newton.”

“I’d like to say (the Broncos), just because they’ve made a big comeback with Peyton being back. And Peyton’s good about studying team plans and that kind of thing. So, I think he’s really going to study the Panthers and do his homework.”

“I think Carolina will take it. Cam is playing lights out. The way that they ran over Arizona was impressive. I thought Arizona was going to win that game, but Carolina Cam in with a full head of steam and looked unbeatable. If the Broncos offense can’t score 28 points, I don’t think they can win.”

FULL PAGE AD “The Broncos will win, as the team has a lot of heart this year. Their defense is good, and I like Peyton Manning — he’s a class act.” Ruth Mitchler, Thornton

“(The Broncos) because of our defense.” Rich Wood, Golden

Emmie Baykian, Castle Rock

Ted Casellini, Thornton

“The Panthers because they have Cam Newton and a better offense than Denver. He really is a double threat.” Larry Mitchler, Thornton

“The Broncos will beat the Panthers based on number of players who have played in playoff games before. History has shown that it is hard for ﬁrst time Super Bowl attendees to win as the hype and excitement affect the level of play.” John Bodnar, Arvada

Dan Baron, Lone Tree

Free agent safety makes unexpected impact for Broncos By Arnie Stapleton | Associated Press Safety Shiloh Keo made a bad first impression when he joined Denver’s dominant defense. He’s more than made up for it with big plays that helped the Broncos reach the Super Bowl. Five days after joining the league’s topranked defense, Keo made a big blunder, surrendering the winning touchdown in the Broncos’ 15-12 loss to the Oakland Raiders. Keo was a fifth-round pick in 2011 by Houston but hadn’t played in the NFL since 2013. He had to lobby defensive coordinator Wade Phillips for a job on Twitter, and then was pressed into duty right after signing because an injury epidemic leveled the Broncos’ depth at safety. He helped them hold the Raiders to a

paltry 126 yards in Week 14, including minus-12 yards in the first half. But after Emmanuel Sanders fumbled a punt deep in Denver territory, the nightmare unfolded for the free agent who had been working out in hopes of signing a futures contract and making a comeback next season. On third-and-15 from the 16, David Carr dropped back and threw to tight end Mychal Rivera, who whizzed past Keo and hauled in the game-winning touchdown pass. Chided by his coaches, chewed out by his teammates and cursed by fans for not staying back in coverage, Keo vowed to make up for his mistake. Has he ever. Keo intercepted Philip Rivers with 5 minutes left in the regular season finale, setting up Ronnie Hillman’s game-winning

TD in Denver’s 27-20 win that secured the AFC’s top seed. He topped that in the AFC championship game when he was pressed into crunch-time duty again along with Josh Bush when starting safeties T.J. Ward sprained an ankle and Darian Stewart sprained a knee. Keo played 36 snaps on defense and 29 more on special teams. He helped cover Rob Gronkowski on Tom Brady’s 2-point conversion attempt, and when Aqib Talib tipped the throw to Julian Edelman into Bradley Roby’s hands, they needed one more big play to seal the AFC title. They got it from Keo. He lined up right in front of kicker Steve Gostkowski, whose first missed PAT in 524 tries in the first half put them in this

precarious position. The kicker had six teammates bunched to his right and four to his left. He tried the straight-ahead on-side kick, but Keo sliced in and grabbed it 6 yards downfield, cradling both the football and redemption. “What a gutsy play,’’ coach Gary Kubiak said. Afterward, Keo sat in the corner locker, soaking in the moment with linebacker Brandon Marshall. “When I think about it, I get emotional,’’ Keo said. “They believed in me, that’s why they brought me here,’’ Keo said. “They trust everybody in this locker room. I just hope I can continue to come through and bring home a championship.’’

Broncos learned their lessons from big letdowns By Arnie Stapleton | Associated Press

6x2 ad position

Before his whirlybird spin in the air forever etched him in NFL lore, two-time Super Bowl champion John Elway called his mother on the team flight from Pittsburgh after winning the AFC championship on Jan. 11, 1998. “I said, `Mom, guess what? We get to go back to the Super Bowl!’’ ” Elway recounted. “She said, `Do we really have to go back?’ ‘’ After so many Super Bowl letdowns — three losses by an average of 32 points — she wasn’t sure watching her son face the two-touchdown favorite Green Bay Packers was such a good idea. Many Denver fans are similarly pensive as these Broncos prepare to face Cam Newton and the mighty Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl 50 as, in the eyes of many bookmakers, five-point underdogs. They swear they’ve learned their lessons, however, after getting shellacked by Seattle 43-8 in the Super Bowl two years ago. They won’t be beating each other up this time in fullpads practices in the lead-up to the Feb. 7 kickoff. They’re praising their opponents aplenty — a lot like the Broncos talked up the Packers 18 years ago. They won’t be soaking in the nightlife quite so full throttle. They’ll certainly prepare for a loud crowd this time after former coach John Fox famously turned down the speakers at practices figuring it would be like a home game only to see that plan ripped apart in all of 12 seconds. “We got spanked last time. I felt bad for a month and ahalf, two months,’’ said wide receiver Demaryius Thomas, the lone bright spot that night in the Meadowlands when Seattle’s sideline-to-sideline supremacy rendered his Super Bowl-record 13 receptions a footnote. “He played great,’’ Elway said in the aftermath of that blowout. “If we all played like he did, we’d have won.’’ “Elway was asked after the last Super Bowl letdown how long it took him to get over his three Super Bowl losses. “I’m not over them yet,’’ he shot back. “I just added this one to it.’’ Elway remade his team after its 35-point loss to the Seahawks. He committed $109.5 million by adding free agents DeMarcus Ware, Aqib Talib and T.J. Ward. The trio has helped turn Denver from an offensive juggernaut that had scored an NFL record 606 points behind Peyton Manning’s record-breaking run in 2013 into a defensive team. Two years after taking the league’s No. 1 offense to the Super Bowl, the Broncos bring the NFL’s No. 1 defense, one that battered Tom Brady with an incredible 23 hits in the AFC championship game. The Broncos also changed their offensive identity this

Shutterstock season with the hiring of coach Gary Kubiak, who installed a better ground game and a plan for Manning to share snaps with Brock Osweiler in practice. The plan came in handy when Manning missed six weeks with a foot injury and Osweiler kept the Broncos rolling right along. And the ground game finally came on behind a new O-line in Kubiak’s zone blocking scheme. Even though it’s been inconsistent, “I like what we’re doing offensively,’’ Elway said. “I like the system, obviously, having played in it and knowing that you can win world championships with it.’’ Elway changed coaches a year ago, befuddled by Fox’s teams losing their last game by a cumulative 150-66. He said he wanted a team that would “go down kicking and screaming.’’ That toughness has been on display all season. Denver’s model is no longer lighting up scoreboards but

grinding it out, hanging around and making big plays at the end. It’s a formula that’s seen them win an NFL record 11 games by seven points or less, including 23-16 over Pittsburgh and 20-18 over New England in the playoffs. “The mindset to me is that you know we play for 60 minutes — even though we haven’t consistently played well for 60 minutes — you know our mindset has been there. And that’s why this team is a tougher team because it’s a mentally tough one,’’ Elway said. This time, it’s Newton and the Panthers bringing the high-octane offense to the Super Bowl and the Broncos sporting the star-studded secondary and ferocious frontseven. They’re hoping this dynamic makes a difference — and like the Broncos teams of ’98 and ’99 they’ll make their nervous mothers proud.

Montana victimized Cincinnati twice in the Super Bowl, leading his 49ers to victories in both Super Bowl XVI and XXIII. But it was the latter game that showcased “Joe Cool” at his most clutch. Not only did Montana pass for a then-Super Bowl record 357 yards, but he drove his team 92 yards in 11 plays for a 20-16 comefrom-behind win. Montana threw a 10-yard pass to receiver John Taylor with just 34 seconds left to win the third of his four Super Bowl titles.

After what seems like years of Super Bowl games that were decided early and definitively, we’ve been spoiled of late with close game after close game. And with close games come clutch performances. Here are five such Super Bowl performers, with apologies to the many others from the first 49 editions of the big game who are not included:

• Adam Vinatieri: The most clutch kicker of our time? You can certainly make the argument, as Vinatieri provided the decisive points in each of the New England Patriots’ first three Super Bowl wins – in XXXVI, XXXVIII and XXXIX. His game-winning field goals in the first two games came in the closing seconds, and let’s not overlook the fact that he provided the game-winning field goal in the snow in Foxborough during the Patriots’ first playoff run with Tom Brady at quarterback. Vinatieri provided three more field goals in Super Bowl XLI to help the Pats win a fourth championship.

in the late touchdown that gave New York the 17-14 win over the Patriots in Super Bowl XLII. Manning escaped the three defenders who almost sacked him on the play, and Plaxico Burress caught the game-winning touchdown later in the drive, but Tyree provided one of the most clutch catches in NFL history. • Santonio Holmes: Speaking of clutch catches, Super Bowl XLIII also came down to a late touchdown. It was Holmes (named the game’s MVP for his nine-catch, 131-yard performance) who toetapped in the end zone while falling out of bounds to secure the gamewinning touchdown in the Steelers’ come-from-behind 27-23 win over the Arizona Cardinals. The 6-yard catch in the back of the end zone came with just 35 seconds left in one of the most exciting Super Bowls to date. • Malcolm Butler: Perhaps the most clutch defensive performance ever came in last year’s Super Bowl, when Malcolm Butler secured the Patriots’ 28-24 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XLIX. With everyone expecting the Seahawks to run the ball from the 1-yard line, Russell Wilson stepped back to pass, surprising everyone except Butler, who stepped in front of Ricardo Lockette for the interception and secured his place in New England Patriots – and Super Bowl - lore.

The Super Bowl is all about the numbers: Who scores the most, how many yards are gained, and this year, the switch from Roman numerals to modern numbers with the 50th annual game. Here are some more numbers and facts on America’s favorite football game:

Bouton wrote: “The Quartet was born in a conversation between Myer and

FRONT RANGE SAXOPHONE QUARTET PLAYERS The four members of the Front Range Saxophone Quartet are all accomplished musicians: • Art Bouton is a first-call saxophonist and woodwind performer throughout the West. He has extensive performance experience on all saxophones, flutes, clarinets and bassoon, as well as the Akai Electronic Wind Instrument. He is the founder and director of Colorado Jazz Repertory Orchestra and a founding member of the University of Denver Faculty Jazz Combo. He plays lead alto in the H2 Big Band, plays EWI in Steve Weist’s group, Phrontrange, tenor sax in the Adam Bartczak Republic and flutes in the Wil Swindler Elevenet. He performs with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, Opera Colorado and with Denver Center for the Performing Arts musicals. • Wil Swindler is saxophonist, composer and winner of the 2008 Gil Evans Fellowship and associate director of jazz studies at Colorado State University, Fort Collins, where he teaches jazz theory, composition/ arranging and improvisation and directs Jazz Ensemble II. He performs

He has premiered new works at the World Saxophone Congress and has commissioned numerous pieces, both classical and jazz.

Bouton during a break in a Colorado Symphony concert. Tom said, ‘Why don’t we put a saxophone quartet together of the top saxophonists in the area? Of course, we’ll all be too busy to rehearse and we live all over the Front Range. What a great idea!’ Professor Myer made a proposal to the North American Saxophone Alliance for the group to perform at the Biennial Conference in March 2016 and we commissioned composers to write new music for the group that blended classical music with jazz improvisation.” They will perform Warren Barker’s “Capriccio for Saxophone Quartet and Band” on Feb. 14. “The Barker quartet is an exciting and entertaining work that is challenging for both the Quartet and the DCB,” Bouton said. Also on the program: Ravel’s “Bolero” and Bernstein’s “Overture to Candide,” plus other selections chosen by director Jacinda Bouton.

Hall of fame honorees left their marks

Parker family gets in Super Bowl spirit Rivalry pits siblings against one another for big game By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com There is growing rivalry in the John family in Parker. To get in the spirit of the 50th Super Bowl, the family dressed in their best sports gear. But something seemed out of place. It turns out the eldest child, Josiah, has taken a liking to the Carolina Panthers, and especially quarterback

Cam Newton. “The Panthers will win the Super Bowl because they’ve had a great season. They’re 15-1,” the 7-year-old says. “I’ll be wearing my Cam Newton jersey for the game.” His younger brother, Tobias, 6, begs to differ. He’s backing the Broncos and will be proudly wearing his Peyton Manning jersey during what could be the future Hall of Fame quarterback’s last game as a pro. Four-year-old Corban chimes in, saying “the Broncos will win because I want them to!” And then there’s 2-year-old Dela,

whose favorite part of the Super Bowl will likely be the pizza, says her mom, Kasey. The little cheerleader doesn’t necessarily need to watch the game to have a good time. “I like to whip and nae nae on game day,” said Dela, according to her mom. Their dad, Ishaku John, particularly enjoys the fact that the big game “brings family and friends together.” He adds that “the Broncos will win because they deserve it, and they have worked so hard.” Mom believes the Broncos will take the victory, saying that “Peyton Manning’s going out on top.”

Legend garners second at invitational Lakewood’s Dinette remains unbeaten By Scott Stocker Special to Colorado Community Media Legend’s Kyle Stewart came through in an impressive manner and didn’t spend a lot of time on the mats during the tournament. And it was that effort that helped the Titans to a secondplace team finish in the Les Mattocks Invitational at Lincoln High School in Denver on Jan. 30. Stewart, a senior, won the title at 220 pounds, thus improving to 38-4, pinning Sierra’s Donavin Bedburdick in just 55 seconds. Yet, it wasn’t his quickest of the day as he pinned his way through his opponents. He only needed 26 seconds to pin Lesley Armenderez of Mountain Vista. He followed with a 1:17 pin against Sheridan’s Ricky Ayala. Lakewood’s Gabe Dinette kept his record unblemished. Dinette came through to win his 145-pound weight class. He defeated Alex Bezugly of ThunderRidge 5-0 to improve his record to 39-0. And, when it was all over, he was named the Outstanding Wrestler in the lower weights. “Wrestling against Alex was tough,” said Dinette, a sophomore. “I just wanted to keep rolling and stay in good positions. I want to keep improving and keep my attitude up for state. That’s all that matters right now.”

LES MATTOCKS INVITATIONAL STANDINGS Thompson Valley 154, Legend 131, Adams City 120.5, Glenwood Springs 107.5, ThunderRidge 103.5, Aurora Central 92, Mountain Vista 86, Sheridan 82, Air Academy 75.5, Erie 75.5, Chaparral 71, Jefferson 60.5, Lakewood 58. Abraham Lincoln 57, Falcon 56.5, Vista Peak 53,

Thompson Valley was able to come away with the team title as the Eagles scored 154 points. Legend placed second among the 34 teams with 131 points, Adams City was third (120.5), Glenwood Springs fourth (107.5) and ThunderRidge fifth (103.5). Sheridan’s Aaron Apadaca improved his season record to 22-2 as he defeated Nick Elgin of Regis, 8-3, to win at 182 pounds. Elgin dropped to 35-6 with the loss. “This was a good one for me,” said Apadaca. “I just wanted to keep up through the tournament and reach the finals. It’s tough and being a senior, there is tons of pressure. I want to step up and be ready for the state tournament. I just wanted to go out excited today and that’s what happened.” Jefferson’s Kyle Cisneros, now 36-4, and Alameda’s Fabian Estrada, 28-2, came through with second-place finishes in the tournament. Cisneros lost to Thompson Valley’s Vlad Kaza-

Centaurus 48, Faith Christian 47, Battle Mountain 45.5, Regis Jesuit 43.5, Alameda 42, Eagle Valley 41, Overland 36, Denver North 30, Columbine 28, Conifer 28, Sierra 26, Denver West 25.5, Gateway 14, Kennedy 12, Summit 8, Harrison 7, George Washington 2, FNE Warriors 2.0.

kov, 13-1, while Estrada lost to Myles Wilson, 38-0, of Glenwood Springs due to injury. “This was good tournament and now I need to get ready and get up for league,” said Cisneros. “I went out flat and I knew he was a very good opponent. It became a scramble on the mat. I need to work on my offense and on my defensive efforts and make sure I am concentrating out there on the mats. It just didn’t work out the way it should have for me.” Indeed, it was a difficult lost for Estrada as a strong nose bleed with just 18 seconds left in the first period led to his loss. “It was just a tough way to lose,” said Estrada. “I thought I could come through and beat him. I was confident and prepared, but it just didn’t work out the way it should have for me. He’s certainly tough, but I felt good going out there. It just didn’t happen as I had hoped.”

Maurice “Stringy” Ervin, who never cut a swimmer during his more than 30 years as coach at Littleton High School, told a poignant story during his recent induction into the Colorado High School Activities Association Hall of Fame. Ervin divulged to the guests in his speech about a junior high teacher warning him not to let a boy come out for the team because he would ruin the program. That individual did come out, and when he was a senior, he participated in the state meet. “After the state meet, we were at Shakey’s Pizza and he was crying by himself Jim Benton back at a table, and I walked back to ask him what the OVERTIME problem was,” Ervin said. “He said, ‘Coach, it’s all over.’ I told him it wasn’t all over — it was just beginning. I gave him the state championship trophy to take home and show his mom. His mom had never come to a swim meet.” Ervin would not disclose the name of the swimmer or any other details. Jess Gerardi, the Englewood High School band director for 20 years, was another of the eight people in the 2015 Hall of Fame class. Gerardi, in his first year at Englewood High School in 1967, had his band perform at a Denver Broncos game. He wanted to do something that no other band had done at a Broncos game. The Pirates played the “1812 Overture” with canons, bells and about blew Mile High Stadium fans off their seats. Two weeks later, he was offered the job as director of entertainment for the Denver Broncos and director of Denver Broncos band. He did that for 30 years, continuing with his duties at Englewood for 20 of those years. The other inductees are Amy Van DykenRouen, swimmer, Cherry Creek; Judy Beardsley, volleyball coach, Merino and Sterling high schools; Natalie Hughes, cross-country/track runner, Palisade; Irv Moss, sports writer; Chuck Williams, basketball player, Denver East; and Art Wollenweber, baseball coach/athletic director, Sheridan. Hockey is her sport of choice Melissa DiPonio played soccer, field hockey, softball and tried figure skating as a youngster. But when it came time to specialize in a sport, she chose hockey. After all her dad built a rink in the backyard and Melissa has been on the Heritage hockey team for the past few seasons. “I had a rink in the backyard when I was growing up and nothing seemed to click as well as hockey did for me,” said DiPonio, a senior at Heritage. DiPonio has three assists this year and is looking for her first goal. “I can’t wait for that,” she said. “My teammates are really trying for me. I’ve been working with coaches and I’m doing my best to get my name out there. Academic wise I’ve been accepted at CU and it would be nice to play there (on Buffs club team). I’ve been in contact with the coach, and my goal is to get to the next level.” DiPonio understands hockey is a physical sport. “I’ll take a hit to set up things that need to happen,” she said. “If I have my head up, I can get out of the way or figure out a way to get around a player. If I put myself in a position where I am getting hit, that just comes with the sport.” Highlands Ranch atop poll The CHSAANow.com Class 5A girls basketball poll that was released Feb. 1 was loaded with six area schools among the top 10. Highlands Ranch was ranked No. 1 and ThunderRidge third. Lakewood was fourth, Ralston Valley sixth, Horizon seventh and Cherry Creek eighth.

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF FEB. 1, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Guess what, Lamb? You’re about to experience a new perspective on a situation you long regarded quite differently. What you learn could open more opportunities later. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The Bold Bovine is tempted to charge into a new venture. But it might be best to take things one step at a time so that you know just where you are at any given point. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) It’s a good time to go on that fun getaway you’ve been planning. You’ll return refreshed, ready and, yes, even eager to tackle the new challenge that awaits you. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The Moon Child loves to fantasize about magical happenings in the early part of the week. But the sensible Crab gets down to serious business by week’s end. LEO (July 23 to August 22) What goes around comes around for those lucky Leos and Leonas whose acts of generosity could be repaid with opportunities to expand into new and exciting areas of interest. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Your concern about your job responsibilities is commendable. But you need to take some quiet time to share with someone who has really missed being with you.

TO SOLVE SUDOKU: Numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Aspects favor getting out and meeting new people. And as a bonus, you could find that some of your newly made friends could offer important business contacts. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) You might take pride in wanting to do everything yourself. But now’s a good time to ask family members to help with a demanding personal situation. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Pay more attention to the possibilities in that workplace change. It could show the way to make that long-sought turn on your career path.

Answers

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Your need to succeed might overwhelm obligations to your loved ones. Ease up on that workload and into some well-deserved time with family and friends. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Love rules for amorous Aquarians who can make good use of their ability to communicate feelings. Don’t be surprised if they’re reciprocated in kind. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Fishing for compliments? No doubt, you probably earned them. But it’s best to let others believe they were the ones who uncovered the treasure you really are. BORN THIS WEEK: Your good works flow from an open, generous heart. Nothing makes you happier than to see others happy as well. (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.

Dancers learn moves from other side of world Aboriginal dance group spends week working with students By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@coloradocommunitymedia.com Dance students at Douglas County High School spent a week learning Aboriginal dance — including the reason that participants don’t wear socks. “There’s a connection between my soul and Jarrah, which is the soul of the earth, through the soles of my feet,” said Thomas E.S. Kelly, a professional dancer from Queensland, Australia. “So it’s all about the energy going into the ground.” Kelly is part of the National Aboriginal Islander Skills Development Association, a group of indigenous dancers from Australia. Kelly and his cohorts spent a week in the Denver area during their tour of America to do a workshop with the dancers at DCHS. Judi Hofmeister, the director of International Baccalaureate Dance at DCHS, said she hoped her students would be able to learn not just about new dance techniques, but also about a new culture. “I decided that this year, because we learn about other cultures by how they dance, and I thought Australian Aboriginal would be a really cool theme for us.” Kelly leads the dancers through stretches and warmups with intensity, directing the traffic through an orange traffic cone that the kids jokingly call the DCHS vuvuzela. “For them, it’s so different,” Kelly said. “Contemporary dance

Maddie Guccione, a junior at DCHS, works with Aboriginal dance instructors Jan. 28. Photos by Mike DiFerdinando in Australia is totally different than it is in America. In America, it’s more modern. It’s more about the technique. In Australia it’s more grounded in energy and rolling on the floor and stuff like that.” Senior Melissa Quiett said her favorite part of the week has been learning the stories behind the indigenous dances. “I just love learning the Aboriginal dances. I think it’s cool that they are all from a different Aboriginal culture and it was fun listening to them tell their story,” Quiett said. “Each dance has a story and each movement has its own meaning. That’s something that we don’t see a lot of.”

Junior Simone Shamas said learning the new techniques has been a challenge. “The preconceived ideas we had of dance have just been blown away,” Shamas said. “Just the feet and connecting with the floor and being part of the ground. It’s hard because we are used to pointing our toes. Their connection to nature is far more than what we have.” Junior Maddie Guccione said the experience has inspired to see more of the world through dance. “I think it has inspired us to travel and learn as much about different cultures and dancing as we can. I would love to be able to go to Australia one day.”
