Residents share concerns over rezoning Town shares revised proposal for property on east side of downtown By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Residents expressed concerns over safety, lack of a voice and the potential loss of downtown’s character during a recent meeting on the proposed rezoning of the Pine Curve property. The Town of Parker held an open house April 19 to unveil its revised proposal for rezoning
the Pine Curve property. Town planners were on hand to receive public input on a revised proposal for the property at the eastern edge of downtown — and they got an earful. Approximately 50 people attended the meeting at the PACE Center, some staying well after it was scheduled to end at 7 p.m. Residents saw designs for proposed developments, discussed changes to the original proposal and voiced concerns, sometimes emotionally, over the impact the development could have on Parker. “I just think we’re asking for
trouble,” said Casey Biggers, a 10-year resident of the Canterbury Crossing subdivision. “I realize that land needs to be sold or it needs to be developed… but I think we could come up with better uses.” “I think the main issue for me as a mom in Parker is safety,” Biggers said. In the decade she’s lived in Parker, Biggers said she has seen road traffic and accidents increase. She worries adding more cars to the mix will increase the risk to children. “To have a pedestrian walkway Rezoning continues on Page 16

Voucher program faces new challenge Families sue for right to use program for religious schools Staff report Local families represented by the Institute for Justice, a Virginia-based nonprofit law group, have filed a legal challenge to the Douglas County School District’s voucher program.

Yoga mats and magic markers Local yoga studio adds a twist to meditation methods By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com The west wall of floor-to-ceiling windows reveals a glowing purple sunset. As students spread their mats on the floor, the sun drops behind the mountains and dim ambient lighting just keeps the room from becoming completely dark.
The instructor welcomes students and describes the exercises they will practice during class. The room becomes still. Then everyone begins to inhale and exhale, unevenly at first, but soon in unison, audibly enough to make the room seem to breathe with them. Students at iThrive Yoga’s Friday night class are a diverse group of ages and backgrounds, but they are here in Parker for the same purpose: to get away from the world, relax their bod-

One of Kelly Hickler’s homework assignments during yoga instructor training was to create a mandala, and tonight she shares the assignment with her students. The intricate, repetitive designs are said to represent the entire universe, or as Hickler says, an entire person, in one image.

HELLO
... My Name Is
A glimpse of the people in our community
YUME’ TRAN Computer designer, then cuisine curator My husband, Jeff, and I first moved here from Silicon Valley in 2000. He loves pho and there were no pho restaurants in this county. So he left his corporate job and bought a place called Joong Thai Pan (where Portofino restaurant is now — behind Wells Fargo in the corner of Parker Road and Mainstreet). It was a Thai place and since I loved Thai food, we decided to keep it a Thai place. Seeing the freedom he had, I decided to open one in Centennial. That was how we went into the restaurant business — a desire to do something with the skills we gained from working for large corporations and make something of our own and sort of take our destiny into our own hands.
Business and life partner The best part about being married to my husband is that I have my best friend, my business partner and a loving, caring, understanding man to share everything with 24-7. We will be celebrating our 25th anniversary this Labor Day weekend. Taking a break My absolute favorite thing to do is to read or watch documentaries. There is so much happening in the world that fascinates me. World War II, Middle East conflicts, the Vietnam War, Navy SEALs training … and catching up on all my favorite spy thriller shows like “The Americans” and “Homeland.” I wish I could say I go out and find new places to eat but there is so much more to life than food and I am surrounded by food so much already. Exciting escape When I was 14, during one of my attempts to get out of Communist Vietnam with my younger brother, our boat almost sank and we were captured by the Vietnamese Communist Coastguard and sent to jail — living among murderers and such. We were there for 20 days until we were let out. So, I was a jailbird once! If you have suggestions for My Name Is ..., contact Tom Skelley at tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com.
County announces hazardous trash collection The Tri-County Health Department will provide drop-off collections for Douglas County residents with tires, batteries and paint cans to dispose of. Collection stations will be set up at 17801 E. Plaza Drive in Parker on May 21. Other collections will take place on Aug. 13 at 3270 Redstone Park Circle in Highlands Ranch and Oct. 1 at 175 Kellog Court in Castle Rock. All events will take place from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Anyone who wants to use the service must provide proof of residence, and a charge of $25 per vehicle will be applied. Proper disposal of these items keeps homes safe and prevents pollution from entering the air, landfills and the water supply. Other acceptable materials are household and gardening chemicals, automotive fluids, fluorescent light bulbs, fuels, propane tanks between one and 20 pounds, vehicle and household batteries, items containing mercury, off-the-rim car and pickup truck tires, and oil-based paint products. Unacceptable materials include radioactive materials, electronic products such as computers or televisions, smoke detectors, waste containing asbestos, compressed gases other than propane, tractor tires, scrap metal and medical waste. For more information or to volunteer to help, visit www.tchd.org/250/Home-Chemical-Waste or call 720-200-1592. School district, state agency reach settlement Colorado Department of Education Commissioner Rich Crandall has reduced the amount of a refund the Douglas County School District was ordered to pay back to the state. Audits during the 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 school years found that 1,200 students in the district didn’t meet the state requirements of 360 hours of classroom instruction. The CDE ordered the district to repay $4.6 million in funding. After meeting with Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen, Crandall reduced the refund to $2.03 million and discussed improvements the district can make with the student count process to avoid issues in the future. “I would like to thank Commissioner Crandall for his thoughtful consideration of this matter,” said Fagen. “I look forward to working with the commissioner to change the way we account for student time in school.” Crandall added that he is working with lawmakers to change the funding model from relying on the Briefs continues on Page 9

Hilltop Art Fair is peak experience Proceeds will help maintain town’s historic schoolhouse By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Hilltop is the Colorado town that wasn’t. Not big enough for most maps, not close enough to water to become a city, the area on the border of Douglas and Elbert counties mostly served as a stop for train and stagecoach routes in the late 1800s. The schoolhouse, built in 1898, is one of the last remnants of the historic community. And the Hilltop Social Club wants to keep it. The society and the United Church of Christ in Parker will host the fourth annual Hilltop Art Fair on April 30, and proceeds from the fair will be used to maintain the schoolhouse. Eileen Enterline is a member of the society. She and the other members decided four years ago to incorporate local artists and area families into a project that would benefit the schoolhouse and support local artists.
“The first year we were just putting it out there and we really didn’t know what we were doing,” Enterline said. “We just thought, ‘Let’s do something where we celebrate history but also celebrate local artists.’” The event is open to the public from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., rain or shine. Familyfriendly activities will include a “Make Your Own Masterpiece” project for children, free 10-minute piano lessons and wagon rides between the church and schoolhouse. Performances include a big band and an afternoon jam session for anyone who wants to join in. Children will also be featured in the performances. The Singing Hills Choir will open the fair with the poem “At Hill Top,” written by settler “Grandma” Fizzelle. Members of a young writers’ workshop at the Castle Rock Library will also be on hand to recite original poetry. The fair will include paintings, pottery, photography, cut glass, jewelry and other fine art works for sale, but Enterline said the fair isn’t just about fundraising.
“We want artists, not vendors,” she said. For Nancy Yarrison, a Parker artist who handcrafts silver jewelry, community building at the event is as important as selling her work. “We enjoy exhibiting at the show because it is a well-organized, high quality art and craft show,” Yarrison said. “It also gives us a chance to exhibit locally so we can visit with friends and they can see our work without having to travel out of the area.” The schoolhouse is one of only three buildings left from Hilltop’s past. The other two, a cabin in disrepair and a long-abandoned Sears Roebuck building, are slated for demolition to make room for a housing development. “I consider the schoolhouse a gem,” Enterline said.” If it isn’t polished, it could go into disrepair too.” Enterline said many people who live in the Parker area don’t know its history, and without the schoolhouse, Hilltop could be forgotten. But not on her watch. “It is something that needs to be taken care of.”

A local celebrity, Canello, “the Porcupine Dog,” was euthanized on April 11. Deb Nabb, founder of the Parker group Missing Mutt Detectives, fostered Canello for the last two months after animal control officers captured the stray dog. He was covered in porcupine quills when he was found. In a Facebook post on her page “Canello, The ‘Porcupine Dog’ — In Loving Memory,” Nabb said Canello had medical and neurological issues that were beyond the help of veterinarians and behaviorists. The post went on to say that Canello was in so much physical and psychological pain that the humane choice was to have the dog euthanized. The post went on to say that Nabb feels both sadness and relief over the loss of the dog. “We are utterly shattered, yet we try to remind ourselves that he is running with carefree abandon and joy somewhere on the other side … and that we will see him again, as he is inexplicably tied to us for eternity.”

Women entrepreneurs take care of business Local women set up shop in male-dominated fields By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Bobbie Bergman takes pride in proving the boys wrong. “Most men are amazed at what me and the girls can do,” she said. When a former tenant trashes a home and leaves the property’s owner in shock, Bergman, owner of Bobbie’s Property Relief, and her “girls” come in and take care of business. “I can still see the cute, amazing place” under the mess, Bergman said. “Usually, we get it all cleaned out in one day and have it back on the market the next day.” The company evolved from simply renting out properties to restoring them for others. Bergman officially started the business in 2013, though she and her team had been doing it unofficially for years. She employs four women full-time and has up to seven women working for her on any given day. Bergman is one of a growing number of female entrepreneurs in traditionally maledominated businesses. Though times have changed and the equal rights movement has made great strides in the workforce, Bergman and other women business owners in Parker have nonetheless faced challenges their male counterparts haven’t. Proving they can do the job Sometimes, Bergman said, she has to persuade potential clients, male and female, that she is capable of doing the physically demanding work. It can be difficult to convince homeowners that a 5-foot-6 woman can move railroad ties. Dr. Tara Breske knows exactly what Bergman means. Breske and business partner Dr. Anna Petersen own 100% Chiropractic. But before moving to Parker, Breske worked at a clinic in Atlanta where she was sometimes overlooked. Patients would wait to see a male doctor, she said, even when she was available, and patients called her “Miss,” not “Doctor.” Like Bergman, Breske said clients warmed up to her when they saw her results. “Once you build that trust with a patient, once you’ve adjusted them a few times… then it’s fine. It’s just the initial concept or mindset behind it,” she said. “Every once in awhile a patient would say `well he gets more pops than you do.’ I just explained to them the science behind it that every time you get adjusted you’re not going to hear that noise.” Petersen added that two sides to the gender subject exist in her line of work. “I’ve seen it go both ways,” she said. “I’ve had male patients who think I’m not strong enough or capable enoug. But after seeing us that’s really the only kind (of doctor) they wanted after that, because of the level of care and the attention to detail.” A unique perspective Sarah Vowell gets her share of skeptical comments, but said being a woman also gives her a unique perspective. The principal owner of Christian Brothers Automotive, Vowell hears comments from

cal side of the business while she balances the books. She also said the community in Parker deserves recognition for the business’ success. Vowell, Bergman and Petersen belong to the Women’s Forum, a networking group with the Parker Area Chamber of Commerce. And Vowell said the group represents the helpful attitude she has experienced in the town. “This town is phenomenal,” she said, “just how supportive and welcoming this community is.”

Adversity a powerful motivator Petersen agreed, adding that the Women’s Forum built her confidence, especially when she realized female entrepreneurs don’t necessarily wear suits and high heels. She said the “you be you” mentality of the group is reassuring while still driving the group’s members to excel. “I think women have the mentality that we want to get in, get the job done and get back home,” Bergman said. “Women are very good at multitasking.” If her booming business is any indication, Bergman knows what she’s talking about. Everyone, male and female, faces adversity in life and that can be a powerful motivator, Breske said. In the end, trusting yourself is more important than gender. “Be confident in yourself and your message,” she said. “Just be confident in your skills and what you have to offer, and know that it doesn’t matter if you’re male or female. If you know you’re stuff, it’s going to get you far.”

Town council OKs land acquisition, traffic deal
BUSINESS
TRAINING
Chambers Road will get pedestrian bridge By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Parker Town Council approved two traffic-related resolutions on April 18. The first was to renew an intergovernmental agreement between the town and the Colorado Department of Transportation for the management of traffic signals. Under the agreement, the state owns the traffic signals but cedes control of the stoplights to Parker officials. The council passed both resolutions unanimously. Chris Hudson, capital improvements and construction manager for the town, said local control of the lights is critical in the event of a malfunction, citing an example from 2000 when a signal flashed for 48 straight hours. He also said local
control of the signals allows the town to set different stopping patterns to accomodate holiday and special event traffic. The council also approved the acquisition of property from the Horse Creek subdivision by the town’s power of eminent domain. The property will be used for the building of a pedestrian bridge as part of the Chambers Road expansion project. The bridge will connect two sides of the subdivision on either side of the road. Hudson said the bridge will provide access to students attending Gold Rush Elementary school as well as Horse Creek residents. Hudson said while the term “eminent domain” may conjure images of an overreaching government taking homes from unsuspecting citizens, that isn’t the case here. Hudson said the homeowners association at the subdivision has been in good-faith negotiations to sell the property to the town, but
lacks the legal means to do so. The town and Horse Creek’s HOA have agreed to a price of $29,000 to be paid to the HOA once the property is acquired by the town, Hudson said. The Chambers Road expansion project is underway and Xcel Energy is already working to relocate gas lines. The current project will expand the road to four lanes between Hess Road and Mainstreet and is projected to finish by Thanksgiving. Ultimately the road will be widened to six lanes. Hudson said crews will build the bridges on the route wide enough to accommodate the extra lanes once that phase of the project commences. Hudson compared the project to a family moving from a starter house to a larger home as the family matures. Approximately 50,000 vehicles use Chambers Road every day, and that number will only increase as the town’s “family” grows.

Developmental Pathways Hosts Fair Helping People with Developmental Disabilities Media Contact: Tara Foristal, Associate Director of Communications, 303-858-2381 April 28, 2016 April 2nd, 2016 was World Autism Awareness Day. It also happened to be a day where the Community Outreach Department at Developmental Pathways, the local Community Centered Board for Arapahoe County, Douglas County, and the City of Aurora, hosted a fair where individuals with developmental disabilities could meet local service providers and learn more about accessible supports. Developmental Pathways partnered with other local service agencies to ensure this was not only an informative event for attendees, but also an entertaining one! The National Sports Center for the Disabled (NSCD) joined the event and hosted an inclusive obstacle course. Attending kids loved jumping over, crawling through, and running in between different obstacles. DIRT Coffee Bar, a local coffee truck and inclusive employer, provided unlimited coffee, lattes, tea, and lemonade to the guests and vendors. Continuum of Colorado, a direct care provider to individuals with developmental disabilities, provided an arts and crafts corner with fun activities for families. The event also highlighted the talents of local entrepreneurs like Max Miller. Max created The Blue Ribbon Arts Initiative which helps kids with autism get connected with the arts through art shows and art meet-ups.

School district, state agree on repayment
DCSD will pay back $2.03 million to end dispute Staff report The Douglas County School District and the Colorado Department of Education have reached an agreement regarding a dispute over student-attendance calculations that resulted in $4.2 million being owed to the state. The money was sought for 1,100 students who attended school part time but received full-time state funding. The school district stated it did not know about the problem until 18 months after the dates in question. CDE Commissioner Rich Crandall has reduced the amount DCSD will pay back to the state to $2.03 million. “I’ve spoken with numerous lawmakers about our shared desire to move our state’s funding model toward a competencybased system that measures student outcomes,” Crandall said in a emailed statement. “Our School Finance Department does an excellent job with student count audits, but the way education is funded needs more focus on outcomes and less on seat time. We recognize that Douglas County teachers and school leaders do an excellent job, and that their students are among the highest achieving in the state.” DCSD said it budgets contingency funds every year, allowing the district to cover unexpected expenditures — like the money it must give back to the state — without impacting schools. According to the district, it is important to note that this is not a fine or a fee but a refund. Colorado law requires full-time students to have 360 hours of scheduled instruction per semester. Funding is provided to each district based on enroll-
“
We recognize that Douglas County teachers and school leaders do an excellent job, and that their students are among the highest achieving in the state.”

ment as of Oct. 1 each year. The audit conducted by the CDE reported more than 1,200 DCSD students did not meet the state’s schedule requirement for full-time funding during the 2012-13 and 2013-14 school years. In November 2015, DCSD filed suit in Denver District Court maintaining the students in question were indeed full time. The district has agreed to refund $2.03 million within 60 days. “I would like to thank Commissioner Crandall for his thoughtful consideration of this matter,” said Douglas County Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen in an emailed statement. “I look forward to working with the commissioner to change the way we account for student time in school. We all know that learning is not about minutes in a chair, it is about the skills and understanding gained. In this day and age, a leading state like Colorado needs a better strategy for funding its students, aligned with its values.”
Douglas County Schools adds rifles for security staff 10 semi-automatic weapons come with $12,300 price tag
“
Our officers have been armed for years. This is just another tool.”
By Mike DiFerdinando mdiferdinando@colorado communitymedia.com The Douglas County School District has purchased 10 semi-automatic long rifles to be used by the security staff in the event of an active-shooter situation. The purchase price for the guns was $12,300 and was approved by Superintendent Elizabeth Fagen. Rich Payne, director of school safety and security for the district, said all of his security officers have law enforcement backgrounds and will undergo an additional 20 hours of training specific to the rifles. Payne said because the district covers 90 square miles and is home to 87 schools, including some in rural areas, in an emergency situation there may not be time to wait for outside help or law enforcement. “We may be the first to arrive on scene in an active-shooter situation, and if the bad guy has a long rifle (and) we just have handguns, we are at a disadvantage,” Payne said. Payne said the idea to purchase the
Rich Payne, Director of school safety and security
rifles came to him while training with the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. According to Payne, DCSD will be the first school district in Colorado to own rifles of this nature. The eight trained safety officers in the district are presently armed with handguns. “Our officers have been armed for years. This is just another tool,” Payne said. The Bushmaster rifles will be kept in a safe in the district security headquarters and in locked cases in patrol vehicles when on assignment. “The rifles will only be deployed if and when they are needed, and we hope that is never the case,” said Paula Hans, spokeswoman for the district.

Juvenile sentencing bill causes contention District attorneys oppose bills sponsored by local legislators

Jensen, then 17, said he helped his friend, Nathan Ybanez, clean up the crime scene after Ybanez killed his mother, but that he did not participate in “Colorado is an outlier,” said “Not all of these guys are going the killing.

Mary Ellen Johnson, executive director of the Pendulum Foundation, which advocates for youth offenders, said the two Senate bills, if passed, would provide opportunities for second chances.
By Clarke Reader creader@coloradocommunitymedia.com For Sen. Cheri Jahn, the motivation is clear: To bring Colorado in line with a U.S. Supreme Court decision that makes it unconstitutional to sentence juveniles to life without parole and to allow for judicial discretion relating to circumstances behind the behavior of juveniles accused of murder. But for First Judicial District Attorney Pete Weir and his fellow district attorneys, the two Senate bills, SB 180 and SB 181, proposed by Jahn, D-Wheat Ridge, and Sen. Laura Woods, R-Arvada, undercut the power of the courts and give short shrift to victims. “It’s frustrating when legislation is being proposed that dismisses what victims go

parole for first-degree murder and other crimes they committed as youths between 1990 and 2006.
SB 181 would stop life without parole sentences for juveniles. Only inmates who were convicted of felony murder or who were complicit in the murder may qualify for a sentence of 30 to 50 years. George Brauchler, district attorney for the 18th Judicial District, calls SB 181 “extreme” and “offensive” to victims and their families. The Senate Judiciary Committee passed both bills on a 3-2 vote on April 20. The package of the two bills goes to the Senate Appropriations Committee due to a fiscal note on SB 180. “Because of strict state laws, judges had no discretion to consider things like circumstances when they were handing down these sentences,” Jahn said. “It’s not a matter of if these are awful crimes or not — they are — or if these individuals should be punished — they should. It’s about when does punishment go too far?” Amendments were added to SB 181 say-

ing judges must consider the inmate’s age at the time of the crime, and whether or not he or she can be rehabilitated. The impact of crime on the victims also must be considered. Another amendment to SB 180 makes offenders who were convicted of a sex crime ineligible for resentencing consideration. Colorado has 48 juveniles who have been given life sentences without parole. Weir and his colleagues strongly oppose the bills, saying they put the suffering of offenders over that of victims. “District attorneys were not consulted during the creation of this legislation,” Weir said. “I believe they give inordinate benefits to murders.” Life-without-parole sentences for juveniles have been an issue of concern for Jahn since 2003. She said she was encouraged by the 2012 U.S. Supreme Court case of Miller v. Alabama, which said sentencing juveniles to life without parole was unconstitutional. This year, the U.S. Supreme Court determined the unconstitutionality to be
retroactive, which means the 48 juveniles in Colorado are eligible to have their cases reviewed. But Colorado has no process in place to do so. Colorado eliminated life sentences for juveniles in 2006, and instead allows juveniles to be eligible for parole after serving 40 years. “We are fine with the situation as is, but this bill (181) could mean offenders get off sooner than 40 years because of time earned,” Weir said. “These individuals are some of the worst of the worst and have committed heinous, cruel, vicious murders.” For Jahn, besides bringing the state in line with the Supreme Court ruling, SB 181 allows judges to consider circumstances behind a juvenile’s behavior. This might include developmental maturity, upbringing and involvement in the crime. “I agree that some of these offenders should never see the light of day again, but we have a moral obligation to have the full picture,” she said. “There are some who have gotten college degrees and been stellar inmates, even though they have no hope of parole. This bill doesn’t say they would receive parole, but that they deserve a second look.”

Put up a hand, if you want to help There are many people right here in our own community who have been blessed enough and who have worked hard enough where they enjoy a comfortable lifestyle. And there are others who have worked just as hard, if not harder, but have earned less money, yet they too have been blessed with a comfortable and enjoyable life. There are also others right here in our own community who have suffered a financial setback, or have had catastrophic health issues or other situations deplete their savings and in many cases have cost them their jobs as well. And then there are those who are living paycheck to paycheck, just trying to get by while sometimes working two or three jobs just to do so. And then there always seems to be the people looking for a handout. They approach us at the gas station or they stand on the street corner with their cardboard sign. The stories are always the same, as they are either stranded, out of gas, an injured veteran, out-of-work mother of three, or that they are willing to work for food or money. Sometimes the signs are deeper as they try and tug at our heartstrings as we walk or drive by, and others just shoot straight like, “Need beer money.” Homelessness is no joke, and as much as we would like to paint everyone on the street corner with the same brush, we simply cannot. Even if 99 percent are just looking for a handout and not really a hand up, how do we know which one is which? Now don’t get me wrong, I am not trying to get us all to increase our donations or donate at all to the
cardboard sign carrying person in need on the street, that is a personal decision for each one of us as we experience those encounters. My goal here is to make two points. The first is that there are those who will benefit tremendously from a hand up and are not Michael Norton looking for a handout. An unexpected series of WINNING events or one bad deciWORDS sion has landed that person or that family in a world of hurt, and possibly homeless. And there are shelters and programs that are designed to help such people and families in need. Every church or house of worship seems to have a group, program, team or mission that focuses on people and families in need. Those are the places where our time, talents, and resources could do so much to provide people with a hand up, not just a handout. The second point is that this happens all too often in our own circle of friends and families. And what I mean is that we probably all have at least one person, adult person that is, in our lives that seems to always have their hand out for a handout. They never have money to split the lunch bill, or they have forgotten their credit card or left their wallet or purse at home. They are a few hundred dollars short on rent or their air
conditioner broke on a hot summer July day and don’t have the funds to replace it or get it fixed. And did you ever notice it’s the same people or person that always has their hand out? If we don’t stop it at some point, we are just enabling the person and the behavior. We are called to help where and when we can. We need to be discerning in our giving and assistance, always looking for opportunities where our giving will be seen and accepted as a hand up and not a handout. And when we give with a caring and discerning heart, we do so because we truly want to help. We never give as a means to put anyone in a position of “owing us” something in return. What they owe us and owe more to themselves is the effort to use the generosity given to them as a steppingstone to getting their life in order or back on track. Are you willing to give a hand up? Have you been blessed enough to do so? If so I encourage you to connect with an organization that helps people and families in need like a food bank, church, or shelter and offer what you can, large or small, it doesn’t matter. As always I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com, and when we stop giving handouts and start giving a hand up, it really will be a better than good week for you, and for at least one more person than last week. Michael Norton is a resident of Castle Rock, the former president of the Zig Ziglar Corporation, a strategic consultant and a business and personal coach.

Purchase of guns prompts questions Thank you for the news about the purchase of 12 high-powered semiautomatic, military-style rifles by the Douglas County School District. Reports relate that the school board didn’t discuss or vote on the decision by Safety and Security Director Rich Payne to order the weapons. According to Mr. Payne, the district will house militarystyle weapons in a locked safe in the security office, and then deploy “if there is a situation where they need to be deployed.” Who will make that decision to deploy and on what criteria? Shouldn’t this type of purchase, and guidelines for its use, require consultation and input from the school board? I fear that the policy behind the purchase has not been properly vetted. Jerri Hill Parker Time to listen to both sides Well, here we are again with the major headline about the conservative members of the Douglas County School Board. Did you bother as good journalists to interview these two women about the situation prior to publishing this story? It seems to me this is another outright attempt — probably union backed — to get back at the school board once again. I certainly support anyone’s First Amendment right to protest. However I wonder what teacher or teachers are using their very impressionable students to serve as their surrogates for a questionable crusade. If the teachers are so concerned about their status or lack thereof in the community, stand up for yourselves and make your case. People in other professions change jobs for a variety of reasons. If they are unhappy with their situations, they present themselves to their managers seeking change. They don’t send their children to do it for them. I get it, change is hard, but let’s be more mature about handling our concerns and start listening to both sides. Marsha Jaroch Lone Tree Letters continues on Page 11

That’s like very annoying Please pass this along to someone who might benefit from it. Colorado is like a beautiful state. Colorado is like bordered by Wyoming, Nebraska, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Utah. Colorado was like named for the Colorado River. Annoying isn’t it? I thought it had gone away. It hasn’t. I was listening to talk radio the other day, and a journalist who was being interviewed couldn’t get thorough a single sentence without an unneeded, unwanted, extragrammatical “like.” Words are her career and there she was, littering her thoughts with a word that has no nutrients. I’ll bet you a velocipede she didn’t know it either. If your president, if your professor, if your physician soaked everything in “likes,” you wouldn’t like it. You would — you should — lose respect for them. “I had like three hours of sleep last night.”

eyewitnesses, and people on the street. Whenever there is a blockbuster news event, Sept. 11 for example, we listen all day and night to updates, interviews, discussions and observations. Anchors and field reporters are required to assimilate information on the run, and to present it with as much clarity as possible. Not easy. There are some that are better at it than others. I can still remember how eloquently Jim McKay was, during the 1972 Olympics crisis. “They’re all gone,” he said. When an anchor or a reporter is without a teleprompter or a script, we can really find out what they are capable of. How many, if any, “uh’s” and “um’s” are there? If there are none, you know you are listening to someone who can really talk. As Kasper Gutman said in “The Maltese Falcon, “Talking’s something you can’t do judiciously, unless you keep in practice.” The primary offenders of “like” are girls, young women, and women. Go ahead and throw Gloria Allred at me.

Board members’ actions an embarrassment In two short days this week, Douglas County School District has been sued, again, over private school vouchers, was outed on social media for planning to acquire its own arsenal of semi-automatic weapons and had two board directors asked to resign for intimidating a minor student. Board President Meghann Silverthorn showed a complete disregard for Robert’s Rules of Order, and for the student’s feelings, at the board meeting, and was obviously acting out of fear of losing her position, rather than following parliamentary procedure. When asked to recuse themselves from a vote directly affecting them, Silverthorn and board Vice President Judy Reynolds refused to do so, resulting in a blatant conflict of interest. In addition to the two aforementioned board directors, we have one director who literally “phones it in” on a regular basis, and one who couldn’t be bothered to read an e-mail and listen to an audio recording from the parents of the student who was made to meet with Silverthorn and Reynolds without her parents’ knowledge or permission. DCSD is the laughingstock of Colorado. The board and upper administration are completely dysfunctional. We need to rebuild with a board of education and administration who are in it for the students, not for their own self-interest. Silverthorn and Reynolds should resign for their actions, and take Dr. Fagen with them. Kathleen Boyer Highlands Ranch • • • We were appalled with how Grace Davis was treated at the school board meeting on April 19 by board President Meghann Silverthorn and Vice President Judith Reynolds, but even more so for the reasons that brought Grace to publicly address the school board. To understand the situation where Grace was made to attend, we listened to the recording and cannot fathom how the actions of directors Silverthorn and Reynolds could be ignored. Children are our most prized possession. We were aghast learning of the actions taken to intimidate Grace Davis, a minor, by Silverthorn and Reynolds. Intimating that Grace was not able to organize her protest without the support of any adults is absurd. Silverthorn and Reynolds had multiple opportunities to apologize for their own behavior, but instead used their power from the dais to further attempt to belittle Grace. We are thankful Mr. Davis was there to protect his daughter. The abuse of power, over a child, is never OK, especially
Oh, I have heard men, mostly athletes, say it too. After his walk-off home run, a ballplayer said, “I’m like, I want to thank God.” Rumor has it that “like” was first used extra-grammatically in a teenager’s pink bedroom in the summer of 1974, in Sherman Oaks, California. The girl’s name was Mindi. (She dotted her “i’s” with hearts.) I tried to interview Mindi, 56, for this column, but she was on like a vacation. I know for a fact that some people don’t want to sound too smart. It’s true. If you sound too smart, your friends might think that you are showing them up. We sometimes lower our standards in order to fit in. It’s unwise, for example, to recite Robert Frost in a prison’s exercise yard. You don’t want to sing, “Love Will Keep Us Together,” in downtown Detroit. I am a big believer in words. Spoken and written. Words can be informative, inspirational, amusing, educational, poetic, cryptic, romantic, uttered, muttered, stammered and true. I am a logophile.

as elected officials of a school district. The mental and physical well-being of children begins with district leadership demonstrating how the necessary actions described in the district’s code of conduct are to be put into practice. Please, put “Our Commitments” from www.dcsdk12.org/sites/default/files/ pk12education/behaviorexpectations/ CODEOFCONDUCT_2015-16.pdf, and Board Policies 1.8.3.2, 1.8.2.2, and 1.1.3 where board members shall follow protocol into action. It is necessary for Silverthorn and Reynolds to resign immediately from the Douglas County School District Board of Education. Change is difficult, but necessary to afford Grace and the rest of the students, parents, and taxpayers in Douglas County that we are safe. Kevin and Nicole DiPasquale Highlands Ranch • • • As a concerned parent and taxpayer in Douglas County, I have listened to the audio recording provided by DCSD student Grace Davis at the April 19 school board meeting, and I am appalled at the inappropriate behavior by school board president Meghann Silverthorn and vice president Judith Reynolds. Meeting with a 15-year-old student behind closed doors without the prior consent of the student’s parents or opportunity for an adult to represent her interests shows extremely poor judgment, tantamount to abuse of power by a person in a position of authority. I am requesting that both Silverthorn and Reynolds resign immediately. The intimidation of a student by two individuals who are elected officials and volunteers with the district is inexcusable. Defending those actions during the board meeting was even worse. I would like to add, since certain members of this school board continuously insist on politicizing things, that I am not — nor ever have I been — a member of a union, a Republican or a Democrat. Not that any of those things matter in this situation, but it’s becoming more and more important to point that out — this is not part of a conspiracy against “reform” and no one is paying or pressuring me to write this letter. I am a concerned parent first and foremost, who believes that members of DCSD must act with integrity and honesty. I think it is time that the school board, the superintendent, district attorneys and anyone else who tries to defend these actions take a hard look at themselves and their actions. A resignation is not enough — a public apology and legal action must come next. Our children — and our district — deserve better than this. Dana Rottman Highlands Ranch

Ann Palmer of Parker, CO, daughter of Platt Clay and Ernestine Freemark Knickerbocker, died peacefully on March 14th at age 83 at her recent residence in Arvada, CO. A memorial service will be held at 1:30 p.m. on Monday, June 20th, at Parker Evangelical Presbyterian Church, 9030 Miller Rd, Parker, CO. Memorial donations may be made to Ann’s favorite charities: Habitat for Humanity (www.habitat. org) or the Food Bank of the Rockies (www.foodbankrockies.org). Ann was preceded in death by her husband of over 60 years, Lewis B. Palmer and her brother, Jansen Clay Knickerbocker. Ann grew up in Endicott, NY, and developed close friendships that lasted a lifetime. Ann graduated from Union-Endicott High School in 1950, then attended the University of Michigan, majoring in medical technology. Ann married the love of her life, Lewis B. Palmer on August 22nd, 1953. She worked as a Medtech until the birth of her first son, Doug. Lew and Ann moved to Denver in 1956. Lew and Ann raised their three sons, Doug, Glenn, and Brian in Denver until 1976. Lew and Ann went on many family adventures and instilled strong moral principles in their sons.

Ann Palmer 7/19/1932–3/14/2016
Ann loved tent camping and even slept on the ground last summer at age 82! Family vacations included hiking, backpacking, and camping in nearly every national park in the American west. Vacations often included an element of history and culture, such as visiting Indian pueblos and ruins, or trips to Civil War and Revolutionary War sites. Ann had a strong moral sense and was always on the lookout for wrongs to right. For many years, she sponsored a team of black junior high students during Denver’s forced busing era, feeding them dinner and then driving them home after games late at night because the bus left immediately after school. Ann moved to Calgary,
Alberta, Canada with Lew and Brian in 1976, staying until 1984. She loved exploring this breathtaking country and making new friends. Lew managed a large oil engineering and construction company, and Ann was a successful hostess for company affairs. She coordinated the settling in of dozens of European mmigrants to Canada for Lew’s business. In 1984, Ann and Lew moved back to rural Parker, CO, watching over deer, coyotes, rabbits, foxes, and birds. She enjoyed plays and musical events, from bluegrass to big band, from classical to rock and roll. Ann loved to meet strangers and had the ability to become lifelong friends in minutes, discovering every person’s awesomeness. Ann always loved being around kids—whether her own kids, her grandchildren, her great- grandchildren, neighbor kids, or other people’s kids. Ann is survived by 3 sons, 10 grandchildren, and 9 great-grandchildren: Son, Douglas (and Jo Ann) Palmer (Albuquerque, NM); Son, Glenn (and Meriwether) Palmer (Edwards, CO); Son, Brian (and Jackie) Palmer (Arvada, CO).

She’s now a garage sale expert. “I like saving money,” she said. “And I see it as a great recycling project.” A garage sale is more than just an outdoor pop-up shop cluttered with used items. It’s a staple of summer season alongside sporting events and barbecues. It’s a family affair, de-cluttering tool, collector’s playground— and a means of contributing to community. Garage sales started as early as the 1800s. Shipping yards sold unclaimed and used items to communities at discounted prices. They were called “rummage sales,” according to the Daily Infographic website, which collates interesting facts and figures into infographics. The term “garage sale” was coined in the 1950s and 1960s during a period of urban expansion. People were moving into homes with yards and garages. With the rise of Internet usage in the 1990s and 2000s, people started advertising garage sales online in addition to newspapers, says Daily Infographic. Greenhalge coordinates an annual two-day yard sale at South Fellowship Church, 6560 S. Broadway, Littleton. She spends more than three months collecting donations and hosts the sale
mid-April, which generates about $13,000 each year. “We do it early to get people fired up for garagesale season,” she said. People in the garage sale world know what items sell for, Greenhalge said. She barters prices: A pair of jeans marked for $5 may sell for $3. Two items may sell for the price of one. Greenhalge works with customers. “The right price is the price sellers are willing to sell for and buyers are willing to spend,” she said. South Fellowship proceeds pay for missionary trips for the church’s youth group. In 2013, members traveled to Haiti. Fundraising “takes the heat off parents,” said Greenhalge. Gabby Johnson, 16, is in the youth program and participated in this year’s sale, which took place April 22 and 23. The Highlands Ranch resident was amazed at how many people donated. The most interesting item she’s found this garage-sale season: a retro bowling ball. Garage-sale fans also can download several Internet apps to find the nearest garage sale, including YardSales.net, gsalr.com, Yard Sale Treasure Map and Garage Sales by Map. Sale continues on Page 13
RISE OF VIRTUAL GARAGE SALES For some residents, social media has replaced the traditional, front-yard garage sale. “Garage Sale Season is every day on Facebook nowadays,” said Angy Weeks, of Highlands Ranch. Several Facebook groups serve as digital secondhand stores for residents to buy and sell used household goods. The “Highlands Ranch Online Garage Sale” is an open group — many are closed and require residents to “join.” This particular
page is filled with photos of wall décor, apparel and furniture. Prices range from $5 to $150 and are clearly marked in green lettering. Attached is a “Message Seller” button. Some residents prefer the online transaction to the outdoor, popup shop. “It’s much easier than dragging it all outside and you make better money and also find awesome deals from your neighbors,” Weeks said.

Illumination from The Lumineers It’s difficult to pin down what Colorado music sounds like because we’ve had such an eclectic bunch of musicians from the state rise to prominence in the past decade or so. Rock fans might hear bands like Clarke Reader The Fray or DeVotchKa and think LINER of Colorado, while NOTES jam band fans point to the String Cheese Incident or Yonder Mountain String Band. Even electro-heads have Pretty Lights. The band that sounds most like Colorado to me is The Lumineers, and it’s thrilling to have the trio of Jeremiah Fraites, Wesley Schultz and Neyla Pekarek back after a long absence. Four years after the release of their massive, self-titled debut, the group released “Cleopatra” on April 8, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard albums chart. Not bad for a group from the Mile High State. Four years is a long time between albums, particularly in the current fickle music market. But for the band that time was crucial to recover from near constant touring from 2012 to 2014. “(We) took the right amount of time we needed to make the record we imagined, on our own timeline,” said Fraites, in a

release from the band. The group rented a house in Denver’s Wash Park and spent six weeks writing. Then, it was time for two months of recording in Woodstock, New York. “We want songs you can wrap your arms around,” Schultz said in the release. “There’s enough generic stuff out there full of recycled words that don’t really mean anything. There have to be other stories to tell, and other ways to tell them.” “Cleopatra” is very much an album full of stories, a more reflective and relaxed affair than the group’s debut. The closest The Lumineers get to the upbeat stomp of “Ho Hey” is the first single, “Ophelia,” a song that is equally infectious, but in a much more subtle way. The hook creeps up on the listener, but after those tinkling piano lines quickly set up camp in your ear. Colorado is home to some great stories, featuring characters like socialite and Titanic survivor Molly Brown and Beat
Generation leader Neal Cassady, and the penchant for storytelling is one of the main influences I hear seeping into The Lumineers’ music. They often eschew the typical verse-chorus-verse structure to tell extended stories that build as the song progresses. For example, “Cleopatra” tells the tale of a struggling actress, and the stunning “Angela” is the emotional chronicle of reunited lovers. The writing’s specificity makes the songs more relatable, as it puts the listener in someone’s shoes, instead of just speaking in generalities. The Lumineers’ old-fashioned music most conjures Colorado in my mind. I’ve long felt Colorado is best experienced with a folk rock soundtrack, and the tunes on “Cleopatra” perfectly fit the bill. The album has little in the way of electric instruments on the album — what electric guitars are used serve as sonic shadings for the songs. Melodies are instead driven by finger-picked acoustic guitars and ragtime piano. You could easily imagine the album coming from the early 1900s. And I mean that as a compliment. The song “Sick in the Head” is one of the most gorgeous songs from a musical standpoint I’ve heard in a long time, tailor-made for peacefully watching sunrises or sunsets over the Rockies. This music would sound good no matter where you’re from. But living in the state that inspired this album only adds to the affection I have for The Lumineers and Colorado. I can’t help but wonder who will be inspired here next.

ing occurs weekly in the U.S, according to Daily Infographic: • 65,000 garage sales • 690,000 people purchasing from a garage sale • 4.97 million items sold • $4.2 million generated in revenue, with the estimated item price at 85 cents. Low prices appeal to customers. “I love garage sales,” said Liz Friesen, of Highlands Ranch. “I look for clothes for my kids and underappreciated instruments.” Friesen has four children from 6 to 14
years old. She purchased all of her kids’ baby items at garage sales. Now she looks for books, high-end clothing for her daughter and musical instruments. “I can get really nice clothes for nothing,” she said. Most garage sale items are used, but still in adequate condition for someone else, reflecting the old saying, “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.” Kristen Lowden, of Denver, scouts garage sales for seasonal items she needs. “It usually varies between baby stuff,
Christmas and Halloween decorations and tools for the husband,” she said. Most sales have sections for leftover holiday decorations, kitchenware, clothing, shoes and accessories. Each one is a treasure hunt. The aftermath of a garage sale varies. Some, like Greenhalge, donate leftover items to nonprofit organizations. She gives to local charities, including Denver Rescue Mission, Love INC Littleton, Family Promise and mission trips overseas. It is, she said, “a labor of love.”

CLARKE’S ALBUM OF THE WEEK Selection: Sturgill Simpson’s “A Sailor’s Guide to Earth,” released on Atlantic records. Review: Country is too small a genre to contain Simpson, and on his third album be breaks free to add soul and funk layers to that astounding voice. The album is structured as a letter to his son, and features foot-stomping horn lines and some of Simpson’s warmest lyrics. There’s no telling where he’ll sail to next. Favorite song: “In Bloom” Most breathtakingly comforting lyrics: There will be nights that go on forever Like you’re long-lost at sea Never to be found Just know in your heart That we’re always together - from “All Around You”
TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL GARAGE SALE Organize
Get the word out
Arrange items by category so guests can easily navigate through the garage sale. Place books on a shelf instead of throwing them in a box. Hang clothes on a rack and organize by size or color.
Skip the decorated, neon-colored poster boards and go for a clean design. Make the address clear, bold and have an arrow pointing in the appropriate direction. Less is more, according to Real Simple.
Clutter can overwhelm you and your guests. If sale items are neatly displayed, a passerby may be more apt to stop.

Make your garage sale stand out by playing background music, providing finger food or setting up a lemonade stand. Invite friends, children and neighbors to help. Small additions can lift the ambiance and make your garage sale more than a front-yard exchange.
The main thing to remember is not to overprice, says Real Simple. Keep in mind that most items are used. The overall goal should be to clear out clutter. Rule of thumb: Sell things for one-half to one-third their original price. Source: www.realsimple.com/work-life/lifestrategies/garage-sale-tips

Active-shooter training center opens at gun club Five-day program is the first of its kind in Colorado
By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com After the Paris terrorist attacks that left at least 130 dead and hundreds wounded last November, Centennial Gun Club’s general manager, Dick Abramson, was prompted to act. “I got calls from people saying, ‘Wow, this could happen in my business — what do I do?’” Abramson partnered with veteran U.S. Navy SEAL Jimmy Graham in opening the new Active Shooter Response Training Center at the Centennial Gun Club, 11800 E. Peakview Ave., on April 15. The fiveday training program teaches defense skills and tactics, including de-escalation, physical contact and lethal force. Graham, of Castle Rock, earned the rank of chief petty officer (E7) during his
15 years as a Navy SEAL. He’s a certified federal firearms instructor and has trained law enforcement officers, corporate personnel and citizens across the nation, according to a news release. Graham, director and lead instructor of the center, trains participants in how to protect themselves from a terrorist threat, active shooter and other aggressive encounters. Participants learn how to react quickly in dangerous scenarios through simulated experience and role playing. The hands-on training program is open to everybody, Abramson said, but primary contacts are from corporations, schools and churches. ASRTC is the first in the state and third in the nation to use the military’s “Close Quarters Defense,” developed by tactical trainer Duane Dieter and used by Navy SEALs. The program “provides the highest-

across Pine Drive is insane.” Biggers attended the meeting with Leslie Bonnell of the Parker Vista subdivision. They said officials did a good job of answering questions, but they both still have the same concerns they had before the meeting. “I think (Bryce Matthews, a member of the Comprehensive Planning Division) did a really good job and he answered all the questions that we had, but no, I don’t think anything was solved,” Biggers said. The 24.4-acre property is located where Pine Drive intersects Mainstreet. The town purchased the land in 2002 as a location for new buildings for the fire and police departments. But those facilities were built elsewhere, and in 2009 the town began the process of seeking to rezone the land for commercial use. The current proposal will allow for a shopping center, anchored by a grocery store. The open house was the third public meeting on the proposed rezoning, previous meetings were held in December 2015 and in February 2016. In an email,

The revision came nine months after the Colorado Supreme Court ruled the original version of the program was illegal. No public funds can be used to aid or support any “sectarian” institution, the court ruled.

April 29, 2016 Community Development Director John Fussa said the town has done its best to respond to residents’ concerns in the forums. He added that the town reached out to the community in meetings with homeowners associations, mailings, the project page on Parker’s website and a public update before the Planning Commission. “The Town has made a substantial effort to provide opportunities for public input and comment dating to 2009-10,” Fussa said. “We have been able to address many but not all of the residents comments/concerns.” Bob Cox, a Parker resident since 1992, said although town officials have been taking public comment on Pine Curve, he feels the input was ignored. “I want to stay objective, but at the same time I really feel like the citizens’ thought and input has just fallen on deaf ears,” Cox said. “All of that seems to have just been thrown away.” Cox said he wasn’t opposed to the project when the property was zoned for new police and fire department buildings, but things changed in 2009 when discussion began on rezoning Pine Curve for commercial development. Fussa responded that the town is “committed to having a strong public participation process.” He said citizen
concerns have shaped the town’s decisions regarding the rezoning proposal, but he acknowledged that citizens like Cox may feel differently. “There are a number of residents, mostly from adjacent residential neighborhoods, who are opposed to any form of commercial use and development of the site and they had the opportunity to express their views on this issue in 200910,” Fussa said. “Those residents who wish to see no development occur are opposed to the rezoning and may feel their concerns aren’t being addressed.” The town is asking residents to submit comments on the proposal via the eTrakIt link on the town’s website by April 29. The Planning Commission will hold a public hearing May 12. The proposal goes to the town council for a first reading on May 16 and a second reading, where the public will be able to comment, on June 6. Information on the project is available at parkeronline.org/ pinecurve. Biggers and Bonnell said they plan on attending the upcoming meetings and they hope other concerned citizens will too. Bonnell said she hopes people will not only show up, but speak up. “The only way to facilitate change is to let your voice be heard.”
and direct the education and upbringing of their children. The three families, one each from Castle Rock, Parker and Highlands Ranch, would like to use the program to send their students to Valor Christian High School in Highlands Ranch. “The DCSD School Choice Grant Program was designed to meet the state constitutional limitations as outlined by the Colorado Supreme Court in its ruling last summer,” school district spokeswoman Paula Hans said in an emailed statement. “Specifically, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled that if the district chose to run a grant program that included private schools it must exclude faith-based

schools. While we disagree with that decision and have appealed it to the United States Supreme Court, DCSD still seeks to maximize the ability of families to match their students with the best educational environment to meet their unique needs. In order to accomplish that goal, we established a new program explicitly denying participation to faith-based schools. Such a program is within the confines the Colorado Supreme Court has placed upon the district and we fulfill our obligation to defend the program the court limited us to.” Before it was halted, the original voucher program, designed to accommodate 500 students, allowed students’ parents to use state-provided, per-pupil money
toward tuition at private schools, including religiously affiliated institutions. The voucher dispute dates to 2011, when the program was given the green light by the school board and then Taxpayers for Public Education — a nonprofit group that advocates for “a strong public education system” — filed a lawsuit against the district to stop it. A Denver judge halted the program that same year, but in 2013, a state appeals court reversed that decision. Another reversal came with the ruling from the state’s top court in June 2015. The district filed an appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court in September of last year and is waiting to hear if the court will take the case.

Mandalas are “meant to be used as a meditative tool,” Hickler said. “Traditionally, people would memorize the design to see it in their mind, but just the process of creating it is very meditative.” The connection between these symbols and the mind is ancient — and to many Buddhists, sacred. Other tokens used for meditative purposes include malas, a beaded string not unlike rosary beads. The Yoga Pod SouthGlenn, a studio in Centennial, offers a three-hour workshop in mala making in addition to its regular workout sessions. Courtney Buck, a physical therapist who has practiced yoga for 25 years, knows the impact meditation can have on the mind and body. “Movement can be like medicine,” said Buck, an instructor at iThrive Yoga. “When I’m hurting, I can kind of prescribe my own medicine.” Healing was the reason Beth Meier, iThrive’s owner, began practicing yoga. In 2006, Meier was in an automobile accident that left her with a broken jaw. A surgery to repair the jaw resulted in damage to her inner ear, causing severe vertigo. A friend suggested she try yoga to help with the dizziness. “After the first class, I was hooked,” Meier said. “That peace, that release of anxiety, I just really had the desire to bring it to other people.” Two days after her last surgery, Meier signed the lease and began fulfilling that desire at her studio at 10233 S. Parker Road, Suite 107. She started by teaching yoga classes for children. Although she still does outreach for young students in schools and libraries, her studio’s

real as possible, said Graham. “One of the most important things people need to know about situations like this is that response time is about nine minutes,” he said. “Active-shooter scenarios have about a two- to three-minute time frame.” The program offers sustainment training — two-hour, quarterly sessions for the
following year so participants can maintain skills. The goal isn’t to transform individuals into soldiers or Navy SEALS, Graham said, but to teach Coloradans how to protect themselves and others. “When it’s a very dynamic, dangerous situation, we need to act right away,” he said.

This was 15 years before pioneers began to make their own journeys across the Southwest and tells of the medical practices of the day, superstitions among the native peoples, battling a measles epidemic, and many other colorful stories about the Wild West before cowboys, ranchers and pioneers ever set foot there. Poole will speak at 7 p.m. Thursday, May 12, at the Philip S. Miller Library, 100 S. Wilcox St., Castle Rock. Refreshments will be served at 6:45 p.m. Program presented by the Castle Rock Historical Society.

With the presidential election cycle in full swing and the future of a divided court hanging in the balance, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Join Active Minds from 3-4 p.m. Wednesday, May 11, as we examine the current dynamics surrounding filling a vacancy on the highest court in the land. We will look at past confirmations in order to better understand the intricacies of the process. Program takes place at RiverPointe, 5225 S. Prince St., Littleton. Call 303-797-0600 to RSVP.

Lions place second at meet Lutheran boys track team scores points at Liberty Bell By Tom Munds tmunds@colorado communitymedia.com Lutheran athletes turned in strong performances as the boys team finished second and the girls 20th in team standings at the April 22 and 23 Liberty Bell Invitational track meet in Littleton. “Our team is looking good this season,” Lutheran coach Darwin Horan said. “We are senior-dominated, which is sort of par for the course. But we have some good young kids coming up. We also have
good depth with 46 boys and 30 girls on the roster. We have a championship to defend, but we are up for it because most of our kids trained hard during the summer and fall.” Lutheran was among about 40 teams, including a couple from Wyoming, that entered the Liberty Bell twoday meet. In the boys division, Fountain Fort Carson took top honors with 84 points and Lutheran was second with 73.5 points. The Lions took top honors in a number of events.

Chaparral pitcher sparkles in win

Wolverines notch shutout over Heritage behind three-hitter By Jim Benton jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com Aaron Hammann, a senior right-handed pitcher, came through with a three-hit, seveninning shutout in Chaparral’s 3-0 Continental League victory over Heritage April 22 at Eaton Field. But it wasn’t as easy as it might have looked. Heritage had at least one base runner in six of the seven innings and left 14 runners on base, but that just inspired Hammann, who collected his first win in three decisions this season. “Having runners on base just motivates me more to get the strikeout and trust my defense behind me to make the plays,” said Hammann. “My fastball was really working and I threw it where I wanted to and I had good velocity on it.”
Key moments Hammann got all the support he needed in the fifth when, after two outs, ninth-place hitter Mitch Kounkel drew a walk. Alex Ackerman followed with a single and advanced to second on the throw when Kounkel went to third base. Both runners scored when Bryce Matthews reached on an error for two unearned runs to give the Wolverines the lead. Key players/statistics Ackerman and Ted Howell each had two of the six hits for the Wolverines and Hammann struck out seven, walked four and threw 94 pitches in his victory performance. Heritage junior starter James Kester allowed six hits and three unearned runs, fanned seven and walked one. They said it “I really can’t think of a ball they hit hard all game,” said Chaparral coach Alan DiGiosio. Shutout continues on Page 21
Laurel and Griffin Eiber are in a swimming pool most of the year, except maybe for a few trips to the ski slopes. The twins are juniors at Arapahoe High School and are among the state’s top swimmers. But which twin is the better swimmer? “Griffin is faster,” Laurel said. “He’s a boy. But when you compare the competition, we’re the same.” Griffin agreed and so does Mike Richmond, the Arapahoe boys and girls swimming coach. Laurel finished third in this winter’s 5A state championships in the 50- and 100-yard freestyles. She broke the Centennial League 50Jim Benton yard freestyle record OVERTIME held by Olympian Amy Van DykenRouen of Cherry Creek and is the school record holder in the 50 freestyle, 100 butterfly and is part of Arapahoe’s record 200 medley and 400 free relay teams. Griffin, the Warriors’ record holder in the 50, 100 and 200 freestyle events, has the state’s best times this spring of 21.12 seconds in the 50 free and 46.02 in the 100 freestyle. At last spring’s state meet, he was second in the 200 free and sixth in the 100. “Laurel and Griffin are similar in many ways athletically,” Richmond said. “Both are extraordinarily talented, similarly dedicated and committed student-athletes. “From a lighter perspective, Griffin’s weakness is getting in the water to warm up, while Laurel has been averse to including vegetables in her diet.” It’s good to know I’m not the only person who dislikes vegetables. McCaffrey comment a winner Valor Christian graduate Christian McCaffrey, last season’s Heisman Trophy runner-up as a Stanford sophomore running back, was honored at the April 19 Colorado Sports Hall of Fame banquet as the Amateur Athlete of the Year. And he came up with one of the best responses of those who were honored. “It’s nice to put on a suit and tie and actually win an award,” he said. 64-team basketball tournament rejected The Colorado High School Activities Association’s Legislative Council has spoken again. Besides passing a new bylaw to stiffen the dishonest practices and outlining penalties in the transfer processes for false and incorrect information during its session April 21, the council also rejected a proposed 64-team Class 5A and 4A basketball tournament. Both 5A and 4A will have 48-team brackets for the state tournament. It will be the same number of qualifiers for 5A but an increase from 32 teams for the 4A field. For Ponderosa, a 4A team playing basketball in the 5A Continental League, the Mustangs were in favor of the expanded 4A tournament bracket. “We were in favor of either the 64 or 48, but what we didn’t want is to have it remain at 32,” said Ponderosa Athletic Director Tim Ottmann. “We’re in a unique Benton continues on Page 21

mates Matt Hanson and Kharon Hall, who finished first and second. Lions sprinter Kent Harris won the 200-meter dash while Jacob Dack finished first in the shot put and Adam Dawson was first in the discus. “Our boys team strength is our sprinters and our relays are really doing well,” the coach said. “Matt Hanson is the defending state champ in the 110 hurdles and we are ranked No. 1 in Class 3A in the 4x100, 4x200 and 4x400 relays right now.” Competiton was tough in the girls division and the Lions scored only seven points. The top Lutheran finisher in individual competition was Morgan Barone, who was fourth in high jump. “This is my track event. I like it because it is fun and about more than running,” she said as she waited for her next turn at the high jump bar. “I play basketball, snowboard and I golf. Basketball is my favorite sport because I like being part of a team and the strong bond formed with my teammates.” Barone said she has accepted an athletic scholarship and will be running track for the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs.
“He’s a No. 1 for a reason. It’s his third year of being a starter and second year of being our No. 1. When he’s on the mound, we have a chance to win. We haven’t given him much run support. We had the same situation last year. We wouldn’t score runs. I was glad to see him get that win. He’s a good as there is in our league and probably the state right now.” Heritage coach Scott Hormann agreed. “First of all, let’s give credit where credit is due,” he said. “He (Hammann) threw a tremendous baseball game as did our pitcher. It was a tremendous baseball game by pitchers. In these type games you have to execute. You get a guy on third with less than two outs and you have to put the ball in play. Honestly, they deserved to win the ballgame.”
situation being in the Continental League and trying to qualify out of that league. We don’t get a lot of wins and it hurts us to qualify for the 4A tournament. This will give us a lot better opportunity.”
Going forward Chaparral, which beat Castle View, 3-1, on April 23, is 7-5 overall and 4-0 in the league, plays four games in five days concluding with an April 29 game at Highlands Ranch. Three of the four games are against contending Continental teams. Heritage, 10-3, 3-1, completes a suspended game against Rock Canyon on April 28.

Pugh won’t play for Vista Mallory Pugh, a senior at Mountain Vista and a member of the U.S. women’s soccer team, confirmed that she will not play for the Golden Eagles this spring because of Team USA commitments. In January, the 17-year-old became the youngest female player to compete for the U.S. national team during an Olympic-qualifying tournament. She was a member of the 20-player U.S. team but the roster needs to be trimmed to 18 for the upcoming Rio Olympic Games. Team USA will play Japan in a pre-Olympic match June 2 at Dick’s Sporting Goods Stadium in Commerce City. That game is sold out.
New playing surfaces in Highlands Ranch New synthetic turf will be installed at Shea Stadium and ThunderRidge High School in Highlands Ranch this summer. “We have all our turf fields on a cycle,” said Douglas County School District Athletic Director Derek Chaney. “It’s Shea’s turn to get that done, along with ThunderRidge. Those are the two capital projects we have this summer. Shea is definitely due for new turf.” It will cost $676,000 to have Sprinturf LLC install the artificial turf on both fields, and the Highlands Ranch Metro District will assist the school district with the expense. “We’re sharing the cost of the turf,” Chaney said. “We have an (intergovernmental agreement). We use it 60 percent of the time and they use it 40 percent of the time. So we’re paying 60 percent and they are paying 40 percent.” Jim Benton is a sports writer for Colorado Community Media.

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF APRIL 25, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Impatience is still somewhat of a problem. But a sign of progress should soothe the anxious Aries heart. Meanwhile, invest some of that waiting time in preparing for the change ahead. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Bovines tend to excel at solving problems, not creating them. But you risk doing just that if you’re slow to respond to a timely situation. If necessary, seek advice from someone you trust. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) The Gemini Twin might need to do more than a routine check of both a job-linked and home-based situation. Dig deeper for more data on both fronts to avoid unwanted surprises later. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Moon Children facing an important workplace decision are encouraged to use their perceptiveness to see through any attempt to win them over with a supercharge of fawning and flattery. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Good news catapults Leos and Leonas into reconsidering a deferred decision. But time has moved on, and it’s a good idea to recheck your plans and make adjustments where necessary. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) The week favors relationships, both personal and professional. Take the time to look for and immediately repair any vulnerable areas caused by unresolved misunderstandings.

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) A friend’s problems bring out your protective instincts. Be careful to keep a balance between meeting the obligations of friendship without being overwhelmed by them. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) The temptation to take an extreme position on an issue is strong, but moderation is favored both in personal and professional dealings. Move toward finding areas of agreement. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Getting another boss or teacher? Try to see the person behind the image. It will help you adjust more easily to the changes that new authority figures inevitably bring.
Answers
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Much as you might dislike the idea, keep an open mind about using the assistance of a third party to help resolve problems that threaten to unravel an important agreement. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Music helps restore the Aquarian’s spiritual energies this week. Take someone you care for to a concert of your musical choice. Also, expect news about a workplace matter. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) A challenge that seems easy enough at first could take an unexpected turn that might test your resolve. Decide if you feel you should stay with it, or if it’s better to move in another direction. BORN THIS WEEK: You can be strong when standing up for justice, both for yourself and for others.
