NEWS IN A HURRY C-470 open houses The Colorado Department of Transportation will host an open house on the progress of the C-470 express lane project on April 26. The project, which began late last year, will add toll lanes, with two of them westbound between I-25 and Colorado Boulevard and one from Colorado Boulevard to Wadsworth Boulevard, and one eastbound toll lane from Platte Canyon Road to I-25. In addition to the express lanes, upgrades will include pavement reconstruction, auxiliary lanes at certain locations, curve realignment, widening or replacement of bridges, and grade separations for the C-470 multi-use trail that runs parallel to the freeway. Work is expected to be completed in 2019. CU South seeks input CU South Denver is seeking responses to an online questionnaire to provide insight about how they can best innovate and incubate new educational programs. The survey can be found at surveymonkey.com/r/CUSouth and is open through April 24. The goal is to gather information from local com-

munity members to inform future programming and offerings from CU South Denver and ensure community needs are being met. CU South Denver will also hold an open forum where members of the community can provide input and feedback in person at 6:30 p.m. on May 1. The forum will be held in the Great Hall on the CU South campus at 10035 S Peoria St., Lone Tree. Schools help charity Students and faculty from Merryhill Preschools in Castle Rock, Highlands Ranch, Lone Tree and Parker partnered with Riverstone Education Preschool in Lone Tree to host a “sweetheart dance” fundraiser for local charity Bags of Fun. Bags of Fun, part of the Gabby Krause Foundation, provides personalized toys and activities for children with life-threatening illnesses during long hospital stays. The schools raised more than $2,100 for the organization during the dance with a silent auction and individual donations. SEE BRIEFS, P27

Parker inventor from South Carolina arrived about three years ago Headed west I was born in New York and raised in South Carolina. I moved to Parker a little over three years ago. I’m currently the CEO and founder of a company providing health and wellness products globally. I’m a father of one son attending Penn State and the partner to an amazing woman with two boys at Fort Lewis College. My father was an immigrant from Hungary who lived through the Russian invasion. He taught my brother, my sister and me that innovation is a necessity to survive in life. At the age of 6, I turbo-charged the family toaster to reduce my wait time, since my siblings were always toasting before me. We were always encouraged to solve our daily problems and had the responsibly to implement the solution ourselves. This has inspired me to invent my whole life, mostly for personal value to solve daily problems, but now I try to create products that can save lives. I wish I had invented the internet because it connects the world to knowledge, but Al Gore beat me to it. Covering the bases, and surfaces I have a total of eight Provisional International Patents under the brands Sanifender, Sanitray and Sani-wrap, each providing antibacterial protection to high touch surfaces. My latest invention provides multiple layers of clear antibacterial peel-away skins for high touch surfaces. Some of the areas I’ve focused on are cell phones, tablets, remotes, microwaves, refrigerator door handles, food prep counters,

Firefighters with South Metro Fire Rescue burn brush and dried vegetation to control a brushfire near the Challenger Park neighborhood on April 13. Smoke from the brush fire could be seen miles away as high winds drove the flames through dense, dry vegetation. TOM SKELLEY

Fires deemed suspicious prompt investigation Helicopter, ground crews battled second blaze in two days on Cherry Creek Trail BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A fast-moving brush fire on the Cherry Creek Trail in Parker consumed 14.1 acres on April 13, less than 24 hours after another fire scorched a 1.3-acre patch of land on the same trail. Both fires were deemed “suspicious” and “human caused” by officials with the Parker Police Department and South Metro Fire Rescue. A police detective has been assigned to work with South Metro to investigate both incidents. “If anyone sees anything suspicious or sees anything that looks out of place, they should call the police,” said Eric Hurst, public information officer for South Metro. South Metro officials received a call reporting the April 13 fire at 12:23 p.m., shortly after the blaze began south of Pine Lane between Parker Road and Jordan Road. The April 12 fire occurred along the same trail less than a mile away, just south of Lincoln Avenue. A total of 75 personnel and 36 engines from South Metro, the Aurora Fire Department, Elizabeth Fire Department, Cunningham Fire Protection District and the Franktown Fire Protection District battled the April 13 blaze, driven by winds reaching over 24 mph and fueled by dense, dry vegetation. A Rampart Helicopter Services helicopter dropped water on the quickly spreading fire as the gulch along the trail, packed with dry bushes and tall trees, was too dangerous for ground personnel to enter. The fire was contained at approximately 3:30 p.m., though crews remained on scene until 8:30 p.m. Additional units were dispatched the

TIP LINE Anyone with information on the two fires is asked to call the Parker Police Department at 303-841-9800. morning of April 14 to extinguish smoldering areas where smoke was reported. No injuries were reported and no homes or schools were evacuated or damaged, but Global Village Academy charter school was put on a temporary lockdown as the school’s parking lot was used as a command center for fire crews. On April 14, Hurst said it was “too early to tell” if the two fires were related or how they were ignited, but added that “natural fires” are extremely rare in the area because there are no power lines or other potential fire starters. He urged people in the area to exercise caution in any outdoor recreation. “It’s dry,” Hurst said. “If it’s hot or makes sparks or makes flames, be extra careful.” Chris Peters, spokesman for the Parker Police Department, said the department was “following up on leads about some suspicious characters.” “If anyone did see something and is on the fence about whether or not they should say something, give us a call,” Peters said. Neighbors in the Challenger Park subdivision gathered at a playground approximately 300 yards from the April 13 fire, gasping at times as flames leaped above the height of the cottonwood trees lining the trail and threatened the grassy field between the fire and the neighborhood. “I just saw the flames from the highway, from 470,” Tom Alltop, a resident of the Challenger Park neighborhood, said as he watched the blaze from a playground near Coltsfoot Drive. “The only concern I have is if someone’s starting it,” Alltop said. “You’ve got to have some source for the fire to start, and it’s suspicious that it’s two (days) in a row.”

Assessor cites downside to falling property tax rates Rising home values, decreasing taxes may not be a good thing BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Rising home equity and decreasing property tax rates sound like a winwin for Colorado homeowners. But Douglas County Assessor Lisa Frizell warns there is a downside. “It’s kind of a nice thing because our taxes won’t increase,” she said. “But there are some underlying problems with it.” Those underlying problems, she said, are adding up. “What we’re going to see is this perfect storm that’s been 27 years in the making,” Frizell said. “It’s always been expected that the growth would pay for itself, but that’s not the case.” Gallagher sets the stage Property tax assessment rates have been falling despite increasing property values. The reason, in short, is an amendment to the state Constitution that limits the amount of revenue that can be collected from homeowners. Lower assessment rates mean the local districts collect less revenue to fund schools and other government services. As the population and demand for those services increase, mill levies for schools and fees for other services like water and sanitation will have to increase to cover the shortfall, Frizell said. A report from the Legislative Council, released April 17, sets the assessment rate for 2017-18 at 7.2 percent. While the rate is not as low as economists predicted, localities across the state will still miss out on more than $5.4 billion that could be used for schools and other services. The Gallagher Amendment, a littleknown provision passed in 1982, set a system for establishing tax assessment rates for residential and nonresidential properties, such as farms and commercial space, every two years. The amendment also provides that the amount of revenue collected from residential property taxes must always be lower than the amount from nonresidential property taxes at an approximate ratio of 45 percent to 55 percent. A home’s market value is multiplied by the assessment rate to calculate how much of the property’s value is taxed. For example, the owner of a $350,000 home pays taxes on $27,860 of the home’s value, based on the current assessment rate of 7.96 percent. Enter TABOR Property values have been increasing since the housing market’s recovery, so assessment rates should be on the rise as well. But rates continue to drop because of another amendment to the Colorado Constitution, the Taxpayer Bill of Rights. Passed in 1992, TABOR mandates that any tax increase be approved by

voters. So far, no state legislator has been willing to introduce a bill to increase assessment rates, and thereby increase taxes on homeowners. “It was not seen as a particularly positive thing,” Frizell said. “We did hit a time frame, beginning in 2005, where the calculated rate actually increased, but because Frizell TABOR restricts increasing (rates), the Legislature opted not to take that to a vote of the people.” In 2003, the residential tax assessment rate fell to 7.96 percent, where it stood until April 17, when it was set at 7.2 percent to prevent collecting more revenues than needed to maintain the 45-55 split. The conflict between TABOR and Gallagher, and the revenue shortage it’s created, are a lot to decipher, and state Rep. Brittany Pettersen, D-Lakewood, said voters aren’t to blame if they don’t fully grasp the predicament. “The math doesn’t make sense,” Pettersen said. “Our economy in Colorado is doing very well, yet we’re seeing cuts to our budget like we’re in a recession... It’s just such a complicated confusing mess.” Pettersen added that cuts to the education budget affect availability of programs in elementary and secondary schools, as well as how much the state covers for college tuition. Colorado Senate Majority Leader Chris Holbert, R-Parker, said he approved TABOR and Gallagher, believing they were intended to give voters more control over how their tax dollars are spent. But he said that since most homeowners pay their property taxes through an escrow account at their bank, they may not think twice about the issue. “People probably say ‘Yay! Less taxes,’ but these are the primary funding sources for our schools,” Holbert said. “People may not put those two together.” ‘What are you doing?’ Frizell believes the issue requires citizen engagement, and added that she’s seen more involvement from the electorate since the 2016 election. “I would love for them to ask the question of their state legislators: `What are you doing?’ “ Holbert and Pettersen agreed that any change in the state Constitution will have to start at the grassroots level. Pettersen said she has some hope that legislators can reach across the aisle to work on a solution, provided voters initiate the process. “We need enough pressure from our constituents to do something,” Pettersen said. “Anything that’s solved at the state Capitol comes from our constituents.” Holbert said he thinks voters would reject any legislation perceived as a simple tax increase, but added that they may feel differently if they understood how paying less in property taxes can lead to higher mill levies. “If a school district needs more money,” Holbert said, “the residents of that district need to understand

that they could increase the mill or they can go back and work toward increasing the property tax assessment rate... It might be a question people would say yes to if they understood it.” Frizell said it may seem unlikely that Coloradans will ask the Legisla-

ture to raise their taxes, but it may be the only way out of the conundrum. “I don’t like paying taxes any more than anyone else, but at the same time you have to pay for the services you’re getting,” Frizell said. “Sometimes, if something seems too good to be true, it is.”

Turning up the heat in school production Lutheran players take on Bradbury classic ‘Fahrenheit 451’ BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Ray Bradbury’s classic novel “Fahrenheit 451” has been a favorite for lovers of science fiction, political drama and dystopian fantasy since its publication in 1953. Jillian Lietzau, head of Lutheran High School’s theater depart-

ment, hopes the staged version of the story will be a hit with Parker theater lovers as well. “There’s just so much depth, so many layers … more than with other plays that we’ve done,” Lietzau said, referencing the play’s themes of censorship, interpersonal relationships and society’s use, and misuse, of technology. The play takes place in a future characterized by wall-sized television screens, speeding automobiles and government-controlled culture. Lutheran senior Sam Beeson plays protagonist Guy Montag, a “fireman” tasked with burning books found to be

illegal. Beeson hopes his character’s journey will leave audience members with something to think about. “We always want the audience to leave feeling good, but this is the first time that we want the audience to leave with an idea … relationships and human interaction and how important they are,” Beeson said. The show runs at 7:30 p.m. on April 21 and April 22 at the Schoolhouse on Mainstreet. Tickets are $12 for the general public and $8 for Lutheran students and are available on the parkerarts.org website. Brey Taylor, a senior who plays Mon-

tag’s wife Mildred, hopes the students and adults in the audience appreciate the depth of the characters. “These people are so human, and humans don’t have just one side to them,” she said. “We’re trying to show the thought behind the thought behind the thought.” Robbie Goodwin plays the fire chief, and the play will be his last before graduation. He said he and his castmates want to go out with a bang. “It’s one of the toughest shows we’ve ever done,” he said. “For the seniors, it’s our last show, so we’ve put everything into this.”

Tragedy gives others second chance at life Organ recipients thank family of man who saved their lives BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

In May 2013, Cody Crosby lost his life in a car accident that happened just off Wadsworth Boulevard and I-70. But thanks to the efforts of Arvada Police and emergency responders, Crosby helped save other lives through organ donation. “I believe, 100 percent, that Cody lives on in these people,” said Diane Eckert, a Lakewood resident and Crosby’s sister. “The fact that he gets to be a hero would make his day.” Not all donor recipients ever have a chance to meet their donor or donor family, but since April is National Donate Life Month, Donor Alliance, an organization that supports organ and tissue donation, thought it was

only fitting that Eckert and Crosby’s parents had the chance to meet the emergency responders and Wes Cook, of Parker, and Julie Kautz, of Aurora. Both of whom received Crosby’s organs. “I was diagnosed with a rare form of liver cancer, and I didn’t have long left,” Cook said. “The moment I heard there was an opportunity to meet the Crosbys, I wanted to do it.” The meeting happened at Arvada’s Police Department headquarters on April 11, and featured some laughs, more tears and a lot of hugs. “Because of the work of everyone here, I was able to see my first grandbaby born,” Kautz said. “I wanted to show them there was some good that came from this.” Arvada police officer Derek Berns witnessed the accident on his way home after a shift and pulled over to help in any way he could. “My training just kicked in, and I called 911 and rendered what aid I could,” he said. “As police, you see tragic events a lot, but its good to hear

something positive came from it.” Because of the efforts of police and other responders, Crosby’s family had the opportunity to say goodbye to their son and brother, and get a small sense of closure. “The people here today represent just a small part of the team that works so hard for the community,” said David Snelling, a detective with the department. “It’s a tough situation for everyone, but this means so much to us, because we rarely get to see that good can come out of these situations.” In addition to the kidney and liver that Cook and Kautz received, Crosby’s other kidney and heart valves were also donated. Both Crosby and Eckert were big supporters of organ donation, and Eckert has become only more since her brother’s death. “The police and responders have such a special place in my family’s lives and heart,” she said. “I’ll never forget my brother’s goofy grin, but he’d be so proud to know he saved others’ lives.”

Diane Eckert, who lost her brother Cody Crosby in a car accident in 2013, hugs a member of the Arvada Police Department. Eckert, her parents, and the recipients of Crosby’s organs, all met at the police department on April 11 in honor of Donate Life month. CLARKE READER

HOPE Online gets improvement plan from state board School faced hearing after years of low ratings by state BY MIKE DIFERDINANDO MDIFERDINANDO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

HOPE Online and the Colorado State Board of Education have agreed on an improvement program that will see the school’s board of directors expand from five to seven members and will include a management partnership to support teacher and leadership development. HOPE Online, a K-12 multi-district online charter school that has been authorized by the Douglas County School district since 2008, went before the state board April 13 in a first-of-its kind hearing after being marked in the bottom

two tiers of the state accountability ratings for more than five years. “This is the first time we’ve reached the end of the accountability clock,” said Brenda Bautsch, head of the Colorado Department of Education’s accountability, performance and support division. The CDE found that “persistent challenges with student performance are present at both the elementary and middle level, in English language arts and math achievement and growth.” Hope Online Learning Academy Elementary School earned a Turnaround rating from 2010-14. In 2016, the school earned a Priority Improvement rating for the first time. Hope Online Learning Academy Middle School has fluctuated between “Priority Improvement” and “Turnaround” over the past six years. HOPE also offers a high school program, which was not under review.

Districts and schools assigned to a Priority Improvement or Turnaround plan have the lowest performing student outcomes of all districts and schools in Colorado, according to the state’s primary accountability tool, the District and School Performance Framework. The ratings are based on academic achievement, growth and post-secondary and workforce readiness. Districts and schools on Priority Improvement or Turnaround plans tend to be falling short of state expectations for students in each of these areas. “We think that with the improvement plan we will see changes and are optimistic that they will be heading in the right direction,” Bautsch said. The process will take several years, Bautsch said. The worse-case scenario for the hearing would have been for the board to

direct DCSD to revoke the HOPE charter, which would have effectively closed the school. State law is silent on what happens if the school fails to improve under the new plan, CDE said. There will be no financial penalties for HOPE. HOPE Online first opened in 2005-06 and was authorized by the Vilas School District in southeast Colorado until it transferred to Douglas County in 2008. The majority of HOPE Students come from outside the Douglas County School District. “The Douglas County School District is the authorizer of HOPE Online Learning Academy, and will monitor and provide ongoing support as HOPE implements their plan with the involvement of an external management team,” the district said in an email. “It SEE HOPE, P11

Colleges brew up a new degree BY KYLE HARDING KHARDING@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Sales of craft beer rose 6.2 percent in the United States in 2016, according to the Brewers Association, a craft beer industry trade group. Colorado has long been at the forefront of the brewing industry, and the state boasts about 300 craft breweries, says the Colorado Brewers Guild. While many pioneers in the craft beer industry started out homebrewing as a hobby while working in other careers, a

new academic specialty has begun popping up at colleges and universities. “There is a huge demand for people who are coming into the industry with specific fermentation knowledge,” said Jessica Blatecky, a biology instructor at Arapahoe Community College who is coordinating the school’s new fermentation sciences program. The program, launching this fall, is ACC’s second attempt at a fermentation sciences degree. Last fall, only seven people enrolled for the first class and it was canceled.

DEGREES IN BEER A number of Colorado colleges and universities offer brewing or fermenting-related degrees or certificates.

The associate of science program includes two fermentation classes — craft beer brewing and fermented foods sciences — in a curriculum that also includes microbiology. Students must be 21 or older in order to take the craft beer class. Scott Kerkmans, who heads up the brewing program at Metropolitan State University of Denver, said that industry-specific degrees have become increasingly important in the beer world in the past few years. “It’s turned from a trade into a profession,” Kerkmans said. “And because of that, you need specific knowledge.”

Jeff Callaway, associate director of fermentation science and technology at Colorado State University, said fermentation-specific education can help students get hands-on experience. “It’s certainly not required but it is getting more helpful,” he said of the value of degrees in the field.

Parker teen lobbies congressional reps for epilepsy research

COURTESY PHOTO

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Living with epilepsy hasn’t been easy for Grace Garcia, but it hasn’t slowed her down. Now 17, Garcia was diagnosed with epilepsy at 18 months, setting the stage for years of strict diets, changing medications and obstacles to keeping up with her schooling. But she doesn’t complain. “Without the ups and downs it wouldn’t be life,” Garcia says. “You have to have some struggles in there to make it to the end of the road.” With diet, medication and a lot of trial and error, her seizures are mostly under control, occurring only about once every two months. Garcia has been on the Epilepsy Foundation of Colorado’s Youth Council since her sophomore year, and on March 26, she went to Washington, D.C., for the Teens Speak Up! conference, a three-day visit with Colorado’s congressional representatives to advocate for the more than 55,000 Coloradans like her living with epilepsy. Marcee Aude, program manager for the Epilepsy Foundation, explained why Garcia was chosen to represent the group. “Grace has a positive attitude and others are drawn to her kind and optimistic spirit,” Aude said in an email, adding that Garcia has been a leader in her time with the foundation. Meeting with Rep. Ed Perlmutter

of Golden, Rep. Jared Polis of Boulder and aides for Aurora’s Rep. Mike Coffman, Garcia made her case to protect funding for the Centers for Disease Control and the National Institute of Health and more funding for research into cannabis treatment for the condition. She’s never used cannabis herself, but says emerging research is promising and parents of children with epilepsy deserve all of the resources possible to treat their seizures. It was a lot of work in three days’ time, but she feels she made an impact i with the representatives she met with, especially Perlmutter, who has a S i daughter with epilepsy. “I’m so impressed by young people o who share their stories and advocate W for their community,” Perlmutter said i by email. “Stories like Grace’s are just f one of the reasons why I continue to c fight for affordable healthcare access and coverage and increased funding f for medical research through the NIH w and CDC.” Back from the capital, Garcia is again focusing on her personal priorities. The Parker resident is finishing her junior year of high school through Colorado Connections Academy, an online public school, and plans to attend Boston University after her 2018 graduation. She hopes to join the CIA SEE EPILEPSY, P32

is important to note Douglas County School District will also be evaluating HOPE’s application for renewal of its charter in the spring of 2018. We believe HOPE is committed to improving learning environments for students in all of their learning centers across the state.” The model HOPE Online uses differs from the fully virtual model in which students receive instruction

ments with Metro State and CSU, both of which offer related bachelor’s degrees. Metro has brewery operations and craft brewing and pub operations offerings. CSU’s program, housed in the university’s food science and human nutrition department, is designed to educate students not just on beer but on the myriad other beverages and foods that are fermented. Non-beer fermented products, of course, include other alcoholic bever-

ages, but also foods such as sausage, cheese, yogurt and pickles, as well as kombucha, an increasingly trendy fermented tea. “Fermentation is taking any type of sugar and converting it to alcohol, gas or acid,” Blatecky said. Kombucha and other fermented products are popular in the health food industry, and she sees potential for graduates entering that line of work as well as brewing. But the biggest area

of demand for people with fermentation expertise may be quality control at breweries, she said. Callaway said that most CSU fermentation students are hoping to find jobs in brewing or distilling. Blatecky said that while people with more generalized science backgrounds certainly work in the field, they may require significant on-the-job training. “You are working with a delicate science,” she said.

remotely. Students enrolled in HOPE Online attend brick-and-mortar learning centers every day on a set, full-day schedule. HOPE Online has 26 learning centers in 11 school districts in Colorado. The Douglas County center is in Castle Rock. The elementary and middle schools enroll 1,788 students, according to the CDE. In a letter of support to the state board, DCSD Board of Education President Meghann Silverthorn expressed her support for HOPE. “As the president of the Board of

Education of HOPE’s authorizer, the Douglas County School District, I am proud of all that HOPE brings to a special population of children across the state,” she wrote. “DCSD supports HOPE in its mission to

provide a quality academic alternative to parents and students. We take our role very seriously and we will continue to work with HOPE as it implements appropriate improvement actions.”

VOICES Smitty’s veterinarian isn’t just kind — he’s truly one-of-a-kind

QUIET DESPERATION

Craig Marshall Smith

utside of a dog,” Groucho Marx said, “a book is man’s best friend. Inside of a dog it’s too dark too read.” I thought about becoming a veterinarian. But I don’t have what it takes, and it takes a lot. Your veterinarian knows everything there is to know about the maintenance and repair of all kinds and ages of dogs and cats. But that’s not enough. A veterinarian has to be able to tell a 6-yearold or a 60-year-old that their best friend didn’t make it through surgery. I couldn’t do it. Most of us have outlived a number of pets. I have purchased, adopted, rescued, fed,

housed and named chameleons, gerbils, turtles, fish, a cockatiel, a conure (parrot), a pigeon (bad idea) and two dachshunds. There have been cremations, funerals and flushes, and it’s always a Bad Day at Black Rock. The expiration of a goldfish is one thing, and perhaps it’s a beneficial learning experience about life and death when you are young. However, the death of a dog or a cat is much more than that. On the bright side of pet ownership, there are men and women who are trained and willing to help with the well-being of our pets. And to do it with compassion. My dachshund has a veterinarian exactly

like that. His name is Dr. Bruce Bowman. He opened his Highlands Ranch clinic in 1985, when Highlands Ranch was one of Denver’s distant neighbors. The pet care profession requires sacrifices that most of us would be unable to make. The around-the-clock operations of one (great) boarding kennel in Watkins have essentially curtailed the free time of its owners. At least my college students went home at night. I think that 20 or 30 sleepover Smittys would be endearing in its way, but approximating a Tim Burton nightmare as well. SEE SMITH, P13

Zig would share with the audience that he could prove that Yazoo City was indeed the center of the universe, and then he would go on to explain and rationalize his statement by saying that because you can get anywhere and go anywhere you wanted from his small town, that must mean that you can go anywhere in life you wanted to go from wherever you are. The choice was always up to the listener. I am remembering this now story because the other day I was on a conference call and one

of the participants was actually in Yazoo City. And when I shared with her that I had heard Yazoo City was the center of the universe and you can go anywhere you want to go from there, she quickly replied, “Oh no you cannot.” As I tried to share Zig’s story, she continued to argue against the point and it was obvious to see how she may be somewhat representative of many of us who have become jaded in some way, or maybe even lost our own center of the universe. So that got me to thinking about the situation here in our very own country. Every day the Republicans are pointing at the Democrats and the Democrats are pointing back at the Republicans. It seems like the truth can be really elusive. And we all know the truth can always be found somewhere in the middle. This is not an article meant to fix a broken political system, but rather to remind us all that perhaps we have gotten a little too far from center. The taboo used to be, and maybe still is in some places, that we should never discuss money, politics, or religion in certain situations, or maybe even never at all. Well

now we have taken this philosophy to an extreme. I know couples who cannot discuss politics or it erupts in a terrible argument. I have heard of couples becoming separated and possibly divorced as they cannot find their way back to center. And this lack of center when it comes to the state of money, politics and religion has even caused tremendous strife and chasm between siblings, friends, and the closest of partners or co-workers. We have become so focused on the extreme far side of a problem that we have lost sight of the center right in front of us, our spouses, our children and our family and friends.

to trim the profits and weed out the dead weight to prepare for opportunities. The old adage of buy low and sell high sounds simple, but most investors do not take the time to take profits at these record highs. Buying low requires some research to determine what categories are expected to perform in the future that may be undervalued currently. Knowing the difference between a buying opportunity and a lost cause is tricky. Review your taxes and determine how you can improve your situation for the remaining eight months of the year. Maximize your 401(k) plan or fund your IRA to reduce your taxable income. Update your withholding at work to avoid getting too much money back or owing. Take a look at your investments. Are they spinning off too much taxable income such as dividends and interest? Is there a way to convert some investments to more tax efficient positions? Take a hard look at your investment statements. Do you see large profits that pushed some positions beyond your original guidelines for risk? What are the chances that a high performer can continue at that same pace all year? Many investors already earned more than half what they did during all of 2016. Do you hold positions where that level of return is sustainable? If not, it is time to rebalance. Evaluate your financial goals. Make certain your investment portfolio still matches your goals.

returns for the last 14 months. See if it makes sense to re-allocate some of your holdings to protect gains and be ready to take advantage of a market downturn. Be aware of the political situation worldwide and understand this can impact your investments going forward. Strained relations with Russia and Syria could create an unexpected downturn in economies across the globe. Elections in France and later this year in Germany could impact the Eurozone, especially after the British exit. How will this affect the strength of the dollar, trading and foreign holdings? What is happening in Washington that would cause the economy to slow down or the markets to take a rest here? There is a lot going on that we can’t predict the outcome of very well. There is always opportunity in uncertainty. But in order to be ready to take advantage of that, you need to get your financial house in order. Review your goals, strategy and holdings.

We weren’t trained in compassion. “Sometimes the best surgeon is the worst in translating doctorspeak to humans.” Smitty had his teeth cleaned recently. It’s a big deal for a dog, and I had to sign off on it. He had some other work done at the same time. A growth was removed from one upper eyelid, along with a couple of benign bumps that belied his handsome exterior.

Of course, as the father, I worried about the dear fellow all day, until I picked him up. He was fine. He ate some homework, drank a beverage, and took a long nap. Business as usual. The day will come, because the day has come before, when I won’t bring my friend back home. Maybe he will take it upon himself, or I might have to rely upon Dr. Bowman. Or, better, one of those in-home services. If I have the opportunity, that’s what I will do. We’ll listen to Saint-Saëns’ “The Carnival of the Animals,” Smitty’s favorite, and I will read Dickens to him, like I do every night. World Veterinary Day is Saturday, April 29. Let’s paws to celebrate. Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast.net.

LIFE

Finding faith in unique ways Churches get personal, interactive with new approaches to Bible study BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

hen Amanda Horvath moved from Boston to the Denver area for school, she was looking for a place where she could find a sense of community. “I immediately felt at home when I started attending South Fellowship’s Summit group for young adults,” she said. “Not only did it provide me a community and support system, I met my roommate there.” The Summit is one example of new approaches to one of the classic pieces of church culture — Bible study. Instead of meeting in a church basement over coffee and snacks, many of today’s churches are taking the study of scripture into the community — and into people’s lives. For some churches, that means going to members’ homes, meeting in a bar or restaurant, and even fitting discussion into fitness routines. No matter where or when the study happens, it’s all about intertwining faith and daily life. “We have our meetings at our members’ homes every week,” said Yvonne Biel, director of Young Adults Ministry in Littleton’s South Fellowship church. “We talk about life decisions and who we are as people. Our members know they’re loved by God and our community.” The Mile High Vineyard church, which has locations in Arvada, Lakewood and Westminster, also employes a lifestyle-based approach to its Bible study groups, called Circles. “We believe life is lived not in rows, but in circles,” said Corey Garris, pastor of the Arvada Vineyard location. “We don’t have a prescription for how the groups have to go or what they have to cover. Because of this, we can have one group that focuses on marriage issues, another that does a more traditional Bible study approach, and another that is more community focused.” In both The Summit and Circles, the Bible is used as a touchstone and starting point for the meetings. Sometimes, the chapter or verse complements a Sunday sermon, and other times the meetings follow their own path or curriculum. “All our groups have the basic elements of community and connection, and we make sure there is some kind of content, as well,”

Bible study in the gym. Members of Faith Rx’d take a break during training to discuss Scripture. Garris said. “We want to energize people’s intellects, and we follow that with prayer time.” For Horvath, one of the best parts of The Summit is how it connects people to each other’s lives, and the comfort that comes from digging deep into life and spirituality. “Our meetings usually include dinner, and we rotate on who is cooking for the night,” she said. “We go through the reading and ask some of the bigger questions — things like what is your image of God, and how does it impact our lives.” These approaches seems downright traditional to new interactive approaches to Bible study, like that of Faith Rx’d, which blends faith and fitness. “Our program started out of the experiences of my wife, Becky, who competed in cycling and in CrossFit,” explained Jim Conzelman, co-founder and operations director of Faith Rx’d. “As she competed, we started building a fellowship of Christian athletes, and we built our program around that idea.” Since its creation, Faith Rx’d has expanded to about 63 area chapters around the world, with the Conzelmans running the operation out of its Littleton headquarters. The Denver chapter meets about three times a month for sessions that feature biblical discussion and high octane workouts. “Our camps always have some kind of focal point, perhaps a chapter or a devotional,” Conzelman said. “It’s an opportunity to step away from your daily life. It’s an opportunity to put faith in a fitness context.” One thing all these approaches have in common is discussion — and fellowship rarely stops when

Members of Faith Rx’d go through fitness activities as part of the group’s approach to Bible study.

FINDING THE RIGHT BIBLE STUDY FOR YOU Many of today’s churches offer members a variety of options when it comes to Bible and small group studies. Churches like Mile High Vineyard and South Fellowship offer groups that focus on particular age ranges, or time of life, like marriage. “Different groups scratch different itches,” the meeting is over. Small groups will often gather after the meeting, sometimes at a bar or restaurant. “As leaders, we’re just here to provide feedback and ideas for the group leaders,” Garris said. “This is about transforming lives and fostering growth in our members.”

said Corey Garris, pastor of the Arvada Vineyard location. “We have people coming who are new to faith, and others have followed Jesus for years.” Reaching out to pastors for recommendations is a good way to find a study or group that is a good fit. But with social media and websites, people also can use the internet to find the perfect match. Through her group, Horvath has made some of the most important connections of her life. “I’ve found people I can trust and be vulnerable with,” she said. “We celebrate life’s big moments together and support each other in the hard times.”

Art fair to raise funds for historic schoolhouse Hilltop gathering returns for its fifth year in vintage building BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Spring is a time of renewal, but for the Hilltop Preservation and Social Cub and patrons of their annual fundraising art fair, it’s a time for preservation. For the fifth year the club and Parker’s United Church of Christ will host the Hilltop Art Fair, bringing food, artwork and entertainment to the historic Hilltop Schoolhouse, built in 1898. “We have the flavor of an old-time country fair,” said Eileen Enterline, a longtime member of the club and resident of Franktown. Money raised at the fair, to be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on April 29, will go toward preserving the building, one of the last remnants of the Hilltop community that all but disappeared in the 100-plus years since it was established as a railroad town

Fiddlers entertain attendees at 2016’s Hilltop Art Fair, located in the historic Hilltop Schoolhouse on the border of Douglas and Elbert counties. The annual fair raises funds to help the Hilltop Preservation and Social Club maintain the building throughout the year. COURTESY PHOTO on the border of Elbert and Douglas counties. Franktown resident Lorelei Linwood, the president of the club, said taking care of “a connection to the

past” is a duty she and the 18 members of the group take seriously. “We pay all the bills,” she said. “It’s just one of those things that we take care of so Douglas County doesn’t

have to. We pay for the electricity, the septic, for the propane, and maintenance. We do the whole shebang.” Last year’s fair drew over 500 people, according to Enterline, and raised enough money to buy a new door for the schoolhouse. The fair is free and open to the public, and will include free activities such as presentations about the history of the building and the old railroad town and a children’s art fair. Entertainment will feature big band-era musicians, Irish step dancers and the Singing Hills Choir. Area resident Mike Smith, whose parents were founding members of the preservation society, will offer free tractor rides between the schoolhouse and nearby United Church of Christ. Thirty booths have been allotted for artists and other vendors, selling everything from homemade food items to handmade jewelry. But the fair isn’t all about making money. In addition to the games, presentations and music, Enterline said every attendee will receive a raffle ticket for giveaways throughout the day. “You might just walk away with something for free.”

After long career, AD set for new chapter

Junior right-hander Colton Schunnuth made his third start of the season and gained his first win April 12 when he twirled a four-hit shutout against Ponderosa in the Wolverines’ 4-0 Continental League victory. Schunnuth said his curve ball was effective and 10 of the 21 outs he recorded came on ground balls. JIM BENTON

Pitcher comes through for Chaparral Colton Schunnuth moves up roster due to teammates’ injuries BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Colton Schunnuth is the next man up for Chaparral, to borrow a sports term used when a position on a team suffers injuries. Schunnuth has moved into a more prominent role on the Wolverines’ pitching staff because of injuries, and he hurled a four-hit shutout in Chaparral’s 4-0 Continental League win over Parker

rival Ponderosa on April 12 at the Wolverines’ Eaton field. “It was his third start,” said Chaparral coach Alan DiGiosio. “He was competing to be our No. 3. We have three pitchers with injuries, so we are piecing things together with our bullpen. It kind of shows our pitching depth. Colton did a good job. He’s a contact guy and he’s going to work quickly. He’s not going to overpower anybody and he put a lot of balls in play.” It took only one hour and 37 minutes for Schunnuth to earn his first win of the season. The junior right-hander induced 10 groundball outs, walked only one batter and struck out four.

“It was a challenge but I took it to heart,” said Schunnuth of his role as a spot starter. “My curve ball was pretty good against Ponderosa. I got a lot of first-pitch strikes which helped a lot. I get a lot of contact and get outs.” Joe Maxie had two of Ponderosa’s hits but the Mustangs never got a runner beyond second base. “We hit the ball hard but right at them,” said Ponderosa coach Bob Maloney. “You have to give their kid credit, he threw a good baseball game. He kept us off balance and kept the ball down. The last inning we squared up two line drives, but that’s baseball. I’m dis-

two bases in a 15-5 win over Standley Lake on April 15. Tommy Mott, lacrosse, senior, Highlands Ranch: Mott tallied six goals to improve his Continental League-leading points totals to 37 goals and 64 points in the Falcons’ 16-9 win over Douglas County on April 11. Tim Wink, baseball, junior, Douglas

County: He went 2-for-3 with two runs scored and four RBI in the Huskies’ 13-4 victory over Chaparral. Sam Beecher, baseball, senior, Ponderosa: Beecher drove in five runs while going 2-for-4 in the Mustangs’ 14-3 win over Castle View as Ponderosa overcame a 3-1 deficit to scored 13 runs in the top of the seventh inning.

STANDOUT PERFORMERS Joseph Jang, swimming, sophomore, Cherry Creek: He was first in the 200 freestyle (1:44.69), the 500 freestyle (4:51.67) and swam on the Bruins’ winning 400-yard freestyle relay in Creek’s 166-149 win over Regis Jesuit on April 11. Jarod Dreiling, baseball, senior, Littleton: The Lions’ catcher went 3-for-3, scored twice, had three runs batted in and stole

ruce Wright doesn’t take anything for granted, so he is retiring following the current school year after 21 years as the Highlands Ranch High School athletic director. “My wife has been retired for a few years and has kind been waiting for me to retire,” Wright OVERTIME said. “There are no guarantees in life, and when you can do something, do it because you don’t want to wait, because if something happens then you can’t do what you want to do. When you can do something and have the opportunity, do it. “It is hard to leave. I love Jim Benton what I do. It’s difficult, but it’s time to move on. What stands out for me was working with the kids and coaches we have had.” Wright and his wife Sue are moving to Oro Valley, six miles north of Tucson, Arizona. “We’re going to do a lot of traveling, enjoy the grandkids and just enjoy life,” Wright said. Preston Davis, Littleton High’s athletic director and former Smoky Hill AD, will replace Wright at Highlands Ranch. Davis also was a football, lacrosse and girls basketball coach in the Cherry Creek school district. “He’s going to do a great job,” Wright said. “I’ve known him for a while and he’s a class act. We really have a good coaching staff here and with him being a former coach helps. We’re really set for some really good things to come in the next couple years. The table is set really well and he just needs to continue to nurture those coaches.” This seems like a small thing, but it’s a big reason Wright will be missed: Waiting is something we all do, whether it is waiting in line, waiting for a stoplight or just waiting for the days, hours and minutes to pass. But I never had to wait long for Wright to return a call or email, and he was always helpful for any request I might have made. Baseball state leaders In no game are statistics used as much as in baseball to allow fans and managers/ coaches to compare the performances of players to one another. So here’s a look at some area players who are state leaders through games of April 15: • JD Wadleigh, a Green Mountain junior who played as a freshman at Faith Christian, leads Class 4A with a 1.242 slugging percentage in addition to leading the Class 4A Jefferson County League in ﬁve categories. • Skyview sophomore Corey Musch is tied for the 4A stolen base lead with 19 steals. • Brock Johnson, a Douglas County junior catcher, leads Class 5A with a .304 caughtstealing percentage. He has thrown out seven runners on 23 stolen base attempts in 11 games. • Cody Schultz, a senior at Cherry Creek, is tops in runs scored in 5A with 24 in 11 games. SEE BENTON, P27

appointed we lost but our kids didn’t play a bad game. They got situational hitting and we didn’t.” Ponderosa right-hander Sam Beecher was touched for four runs and gave up six hits. Senior Andrew Psaltis had two singles for the Wolverines and scored a run. Luke Bailey, Jackson Winslow and Bryce Matthews delivered runscoring hits. The win evened Chaparral’s Continental League record at 1-1 and pulled the Wolverines close to the .500 mark for the season. “We started 0-5,” said DiGiosio. “We have won five of the last six and have a chance to get back to .500. After the first week of league play, I’m pretty

happy. There might be one team that every team is looking at, but there is a lot of talent in the league and a lot of opportunities for a lot of different teams to compete for the championship and a high seeding in the playoffs.” Ponderosa, a Class 4A team, dropped its league opener to Chaparral but is 8-2 overall. “We were 8-1 coming into this game and now we’re 8-2,” said Maloney. “We were hoping to be .500 coming into this game. The kids have really played well together. We got shutdown against Chaparral but in this league that’s going to happen. “For us, a 4A school, a couple wins in the league would be huge for us. We’d love to win all 10 of them but our goal is to get four or five and that would be huge. We just have plug away and hopefully we can steal a couple games.”

Celebrating 45 consecutive years of twirling, jumping and gliding on ice, Showtime on Ice will this year stage three of the show’s most popular performances throughout its history: “Grease,” “The Lion King” and “Beauty and the Beast.” Four performances of this year’s show, titled “Tales As Old As Time,” take place at the South Suburban Ice Arena, 6580 S. Vine St. in Centennial, April 28-30. Tickets range from $10 to $20. Professional skaters Ryan Bradley, Starr Andrews and Max Aaron are featured this year. About 150 performers of all levels from across metro Denver, ranging in age from 3 to 65, take to the ice. “What I hear from people year after year is that they had no idea there were this many talented skaters in the area,” said Sally Smith, the show’s style coach and theatrical director. “It

Rep. Jared Polis of Colorado’s 2nd Congressional District greets Parker’s Grace Garcia, her mother Laurie Garcia, second from right, and Lisa Marie Maxson, a board member of the Epilepsy Foundation of Colorado. Garcia said many of the congressional aides she spoke to had little understanding of epilepsy, and she was glad for the opportunity to inform them. COURTESY PHOTO

after college, traveling the world and keeping her homeland safe. She loves studying history and writing short, and long, fictional stories, though the short ones are easier to finish. One story Garcia is writing is a fantasy about a girl living in a town surrounded by a supernatural barrier, one she must break through before she can see the world and return home

with a different, wiser perspective. The parallels to her own challenges with epilepsy and her goals of seeing the world are difficult to overlook, but she insists it’s not in any way autobiographical. “Everybody has a different story,” she says. Garcia hopes one chapter in her real-life story will be about persuading elected officials to provide more resources for the fight against epilepsy. “I think we have them on our side,” Garcia says. “I think in the future there will be a positive effect.”
