Moratorium leaving owners in uncertainty Limbo causes problems while city updates zoning code By Kyle Harding kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Denver rockabilly band Dixie Leadfoot played for the third year in a row at the Turkey Leg and Wine Hoedown. Greg Reinke and Caroline Rudy get in the spirit for the Turkey Leg and Wine Hoedown on July 15. Reinke hosted the event and Rudy bartended in the “Amazon Treehouse” bar.

For the fifth year, the parking lot of Reinke Bros. Halloween and Costume Superstore in downtown Littleton was transformed into hillbilly heaven for the Turkey Leg and Wine Hoedown on July 15 and 16. Smokin Fins provided the turkey legs, with a choice between deep-fried and smoked. “The turkey legs are awesome,” said Reinke Bros. owner Greg Reinke as he enjoyed a beer in his “Amazon Treehouse” bar, clad in overalls to reflect the spirit of the event. Attendees enjoyred turkey legs, sweet corn, wine, beer, square dancing and music at the two-day event. Reinke said attendance, at about 1,900, was down slightly from last year, but he said sales of food and beverages were up.

As Littleton city staffers work to update building regulations in the community business district zone, some property owners are upset that that a 90-day moratorium on new land uses following the approval of a controversial development in the area is keeping them from selling or leasing their buildings. “They’re hurting small businesses,” said Jim Misener. Misener and his wife, Cindy, own a vacant building on Windemere Street, just north of Littleton Boulevard. A dog grooming and boarding business was supposed to move into their building, but a required conditional-use permit could not be applied for under the moratorium. Senior Planner Carol Kuhn said that the zoning code specifically states that overnight animal care requires a conditional-use permit, a status used for businesses that may have a greater effect on the surrounding community than normal.

Woman’s disappearance investigated Charlene Voight recently moved to Littleton from Southern California Staff report The Littleton Police Department has opened a criminal investigation into the disappearance of a missing woman, and her boyfriend is in custody on suspicion of unrelated charges, according to department spokesman Cmdr. Trent

Cooper. Charlene Roxanne Voight, 36, was reported missing on July 8 after her family had not heard from her in several days. Her boyfriend, Jeffrey Scott Beier, is being held at the Arapahoe County Jail on $100,000 bond Voight on suspicion of sexual assault. The department, along with the Arap-

ahoe County Sheriff’s Office, Colorado Bureau of Investigation and 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office, is investigating her disappearance. Her vehicle has been located and a possible crime scene at 5099 S. Rio Grande St. is being investigated, according to a police department news relase.

A glimpse of the people in our community

JON STEEN Littleton resident, enthusiast about Africa About me I moved to Colorado from Minnesota three years to go to the University of Denver. I recently graduated with my master’s degree in international studies, with a regional focus on Africa. What got me interested in Africa I kind of had the Western notion of history for the longest time; you go through high school and you learn about the great civilizations and everything, but they skip over

Africa. It’s the curiosity of what we don’t talk about. That’s what really sparked my interest. My journeys to Africa Yes, I traveled to Ethiopia in 2009, that was the first time I went to Africa, and I absolutely loved it. I was traveling with my uncle, who was doing eye surgeries. I became very intrigued because I ran into all these historical places. So, in 2011, I went over there again. That time I went to Uganda, and then Togo and Benin in west Africa, which is way different from east Africa. How Colorado compares to Minnesota I love it here. The way I see it is Colorado has the best of everything you can have in the Midwest without the extreme weather. It’ll get hot here but it never gets humid, it’ll snow here but it will melt away in two days. Something I really enjoy Coffee. I consider myself a coffee snob. What I love about coffee is the community that’s created when you have a cup of coffee. You sit down, you talk about life. It’s not even as much about coffee, even though I’m very picky and particular; it’s more about the experience of getting to know people.

Former senator’s life, passion remembered Thousands gather for funeral to remember Bill Armstrong

By Alex DeWind adewind@coloradocommunitymedia.com William L. Armstrong is remembered as a man of success — in business, politics, family and faith. The theme of his funeral service was a phrase he often recited: “Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.” “There’s no more fitting theme to Bill’s life,” said Cherri Parks, vice president of academic affairs of Colorado Christian University, “no more fitting theme to this service.” Parks delivered the eulogy at Armstrong’s funeral service on July 15 at Cherry Hills Community Church in Highlands Ranch. Thousands of guests, including political leaders, businesspeople and Christian families, gathered in the church’s auditorium to honor the life of the former U.S. senator, who died July 5 at the age of 79 following a five-year battle with cancer. The church’s auditorium radiated rich hues of blue with two photos of the political leader sitting center stage. A remembrance video kicked off the service with a recollection of memories, political milestones and personal tributes. The day of the service marked the 54th wedding anniversary of Armstrong and his wife, Ellen. He’s survived by her, their two children and eight grandchildren. Armstrong’s death marked “a five-year fight with cancer but

more importantly, a life well lived,” Parks said at the service. Armstrong served in the state House (1963-64) and state Senate (1965-72), before serving in the U.S. House (1973-79) and Senate (1979-1991). During his tenure in the U.S. Senate, Armstrong was a member of the finance, budget and banking committees and spent six years as chairman of the Republican Policy Committee. He was also a man of many business endeavors: • Armstrong landed his ﬁrst real job as a radio disc jockey at 11 years old. He then pursued an interest in broadcast and served as the president of Denver radio stations KEZW and KOSI-FM. • He worked in several different businesses with his son Wil, including Cherry Creek Mortgage Company. • He was the founder and chairman of Blueberry Systems, a financial software solution company, and the director of several public companies, including Oppenheimer Funds and International Family Entertainment Inc. • Armstrong served as president of Colorado Christian University in Lakewood since 2006 — although he never graduated from college. “It was the last thing on Bill’s mind when he was approached to become the president of Colorado Christian University,” Parks said, fighting back tears. “He called his work at the university ‘the most significant, energizing and rewarding work I’ve ever undertaken.’” In February, Armstrong announced he would be retiring as president of Colorado Chris-

Bill Armstrong’s granddaughters, Kathryn Armstrong, left, and Elisabeth Armstrong, read Scriptures at his funeral held at Cherry Hills Community Church on July 15. Photos by Alex DeWind tian later this year. Armstrong’s daughter, Anne Armstrong Nordby, remembered her father as a humorous man devoted to his faith and family. He enjoyed ice cream for dinner, she said. He considered his dog the world’s most wonderful canine. He made his family laugh every single day. And he took care of them every single day. “He had a way of making you feel like you were the most important person in the room and he was really glad to be with you,” she said. “And guess what — he was.”

Hundreds of guests ﬁll Cherry Hills Community Church on July 15 to honor former senator and Colorado Christian University president Bill Armstrong, who died at 79 on July 5. He leaves “thousands of people who respect and admire him,” said Cherri Parks, vice president of academic affairs of Colorado Christian University.

Collecting socks by the box Mrs. Colorado winner aiming to gather 50,000 pairs for homeless By Kyle Harding kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com This year’s Mrs. Colorado is a Littleton resident, and she’s making it her mission to see to it that homeless people don’t go without socks. Erica Shields, 49, was crowned as Mrs. Colorado in April. In May, she had a chance meeting with another Littleton resident, Phillis Shimamoto, who happens to be vice president of the Sock it to Em Sock Campaign, a nonprofit organization that works to provide socks to the homeless. Shields looked up the campaign’s website after noticing the web address on Shimamoto’s business card. “The first thing I saw was that socks are the number one most-needed item in homeless shelters and the least donated,” she said. Mrs. Colorado is a preliminary pageant for the Mrs. America contest, a pageant for married women. Shields enlisted her cohorts in the other 49 states to help her gather socks, setting a goal to collect 50,000 pairs of socks by Aug. 6. That’s an ambitious number, as Shimamoto said that the campaign collected 40,000 pairs in 24 states throughout all of last year. But Shields noted that her effort is active in all 50 states. She traveled to Utah for a sock donation event last month and said 515 pairs were collected in just one day. About 100 sock collection boxes have been placed at local businesses, and the drive will culminate on Aug. 6 with a party at Clement Park, at which attendees

Sock it to Em Sock Campaign Vice President Phillis Shimamoto, left, and Mrs. Colorado Erica Shields have set a goal to collect 50,000 pairs of socks for the homeless by Aug. 6. Photo by Kyle Harding are asked to bring a pair of new socks to donate. Later that month, Shields will head to Las Vegas for the Mrs. America pageant. If she wins, she will step down as Mrs. Colorado. “That would give me an even larger platform for socks,” she said. Shields’ involvement has helped the effort immensely, Shimamoto said. “Erica has brought a great energy,” she said. “We’re excited because she’s excited.”

HOW TO DONATE TO SOCK IT TO EM More information about the Sock it to Em Sock Campaign can be found at www.sockittoemsockcampaign.org. The Mrs. Colorado sock drive will end Aug 6 with a food truck event at Clement Park, 7306 W. Bowles Ave. Attendees are asked to bring new socks to donate. For every pair of socks or $1 given,

donors will receive one entry into a drawing for gift certificates at area restaurants. There are about 100 drop-off locations to donate socks prior to the event throughout the metro area. Locations in Littleton include General Store 45 at 2479 W. Main St., La Vaca Meat Company at 2489 W. Main St., Gracefull Community Cafe at 5610 S. Curtice St. and Rooted Boutique at 2555 W. Alamo Ave.

Local firefighters help battle Cold Springs blaze Members of South Metro, Littleton departments among those sent to Nederland area By Tom Skelley tskelley@coloradocommunitymedia.com Members of the Southeast Metro Strike Team helped the Boulder Office of Emergency Management battle the recent Cold Springs Fire near Nederland, which consumed eight homes and burned 528 acres. The Boulder Office of Emergency Management reported that the fire was completely contained the evening of July 14. The strike team that helped battle the blaze is composed of firefighters from South Metro Fire Rescue, the Aurora Fire Department, Littleton Fire Rescue and

Sable Altura Fire Rescue, which serves areas east of Aurora. “The strike teams are there to fill the gap between the initial attack and when the federal group arrives,” said Eric Hurst, spokesman for the South Metro Fire Rescue. “They fill that space when things are escalating.” A team of six firefighters assembled near 7 p.m. on July 9 near Hampden Avenue and I-25, then deployed to the Nederland area to fight the blaze. At the time of the call for assistance, Hurst said the fire had spread across roughly 200 acres. After working through the night, they were relieved by six other members of the team the morning of July 10. The original six members then returned to the scene that afternoon to assist further until federal coordinators relieved them. The Cold Springs fire began July 8. On July 13, the Boulder County District

Attorney charged two suspects from Alabama, Jimmy Andrew Suggs, 28, and Zackary Ryan Kuykendall, 26, with arson. Bond was set for Suggs at $150,000 and Kuykendall at $200,000. Embers from a campfire the men are suspected of not extinguishing completely are thought to have caused the fire. The multi-unit strike team is part of a State Mutual Aid Agreement that orders area emergency responders to provide free assistance to local agencies for up to 12 hours. After that period, a federal incident management team takes over, coordinating regional forces and using federal funds. Hurst said that as of July 15, South Metro Fire Rescue will have one engine and three to four staff listed in a database with the National Forest Service to be called upon as needed. The truck will be available for up to 14 days and

costs will be reimbursed by the National Forest Service. With a slew of recent wildfires and fire season just beginning, Hurst said there is no telling where the engine could ultimately be used. “We’ve had them wind up in California before,” Hurst said. Hurst recommended anyone planning to camp first check the National Forest Service’s website for recommendations and restrictions. He also stressed the need for campers to make sure fires are fully extinguished, meaning they are cold to the touch and no smoldering embers remain. “Especially when you have a recreational fire, please call the fire department first,” Hurst said. “A, so we know about it in case a neighbor sees it and calls us, and B, so we can alert you to be aware of any restrictions that may be in place.”

Water study says methane not always tied to drilling Other causes range from coal seams to unknown By Dan Elliott Associated Press The oil and gas industry may not be to blame if northeastern Colorado tap water is so full of methane it can be set on fire, researchers say. Fewer than 5 percent of the region’s water wells that were checked for methane pollution had been tainted by oil and gas leaks, according to a study released Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science. About 18 percent had methane that came from coal seams that underlie the area, the researchers said. The other wells either had methane that couldn’t be definitively traced or had no detectable methane at all. Dramatic videos of residents igniting water running from a faucet occasionally surface in communities near oil and gas wells, including in Colorado, and the images are sometimes cited as evidence of the danger posed by energy development, including fracking. “I think it’s important for people to realize that being able to light your tap

water on fire in many cases is a natural occurrence,” said Owen Sherwood, lead author of the study and a research associate at the University of Colorado. “However, accidents do happen, leaks do happen,” he said. The study looked only at the DenverJulesburg Basin, an energy-rich formation in northeastern Colorado. The findings don’t necessarily apply to other formations because of differences in geology, drilling history and regulation, Sherwood said. The $200,000 study was funded by the National Science Foundation and got no money from the energy industry, Sherwood said. Sherwood and five other researchers reviewed public records from the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, the state’s energy regulator, from 1988 to 2014. The records showed that 924 individual water wells were tested for methane after residents complained about pollution. Of those wells, 593 had detectable levels of methane, including 169 with methane that could be traced to coal beds and 42 with methane that could be traced to oil and gas production. Researchers can distinguish between the two because they have distinct

chemical footprints, Sherwood said. Methane from oil and gas production is also mixed with ethane, propane and butane, he said. If the study couldn’t determine the source of the methane, it was usually because regulators hadn’t finished their investigation at the time the researchers retrieved the data in 2014, or because the case was so old that the available technology couldn’t identify the source. Regardless of the source, the methane gets into water wells by first infiltrating an aquifer, a natural underground water reservoir, Sherwood said. It’s then drawn up into the well. Researchers were able to trace groundwater methane pollution to a leak in a specific oil or gas well in 11 instances. In each case, the culprit was the surface casing — the lining inside the upper part of the well bore — in an older petroleum well drilled under nowobsolete rules, Sherwood said. In all 11 instances, the well casing was too shallow by current standards for new wells. Six of those wells also had leaks in the casings. The current rules, adopted in the mid-1990s, require the surface casing to extend 50 feet below the deepest aquifer in some areas. In the Denver-Julesburg

Basin, that can be as deep as 1,200 feet, Sherwood said. In none of those 11 instances could the leak be attributed to hydraulic fracturing, Sherwood said. Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, injects water, sand and chemicals into a well bore to break open underground formations and release oil and gas. In 2010, drilling companies began high-volume fracking, injecting the fluids perhaps 20 times at different locations in the same well, compared with three or four times under previous practice, Sherwood said. But the number of documented incidents of water wells polluted by methane from oil and gas production each year didn’t change, he said. “It’s relatively rare, a rate of about two cases a year” since 2000, Sherwood said. Rob Jackson, an earth sciences professor at Stanford University who wasn’t involved in the research, said he thinks the study is sound, although he said a potential weakness is whether water sampling techniques were consistent over the years covered. “I still like what they’ve done,” he said. The study highlights the importance of oil and gas well casing, he said.

Health officials warn public of measles exposure risk Staff report The Tri-County Health Department says an infant infected with measles may have recently exposed people to the virus at various locations in the South Metro area. Anyone who has been in proximity with the baby has been contacted, and Executive Director Dr. John Douglas said

the remaining risk is “extremely low.” People may have been exposed at Kumon Math and Reading Center of Highlands Ranch at 9362 S. Colorado Blvd. on July 8 and July 11, King Soopers at 9551 S. University Blvd. and Panda Express at 9563 S. University Blvd. on July 11, Target at 10001 Commons St. in Lone Tree on July 12, Sky Ridge Pediatric Emergency Department at 10107

Ridgegate Parkway in Lone Tree and the Pediatric Unit at Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children at Presbyterian St. Luke’s at 2001 High St. in Denver. Measles can be spread by coughing and sneezing and is dangerous to infants too young to be vaccinated, people with compromised immune systems and people who have not been immunized. Complications include ear

C A S T L E

infections, pneumonia and encephalitis. Symptoms typically begin seven to 14 days after exposure and include fever of 101 degrees or higher, runny nose, red eyes, sensitivity to light, coughing and a rash on the face and body.

Bob Webb cuts out an intricate lace-like pattern on a wooden cross he is making. The 92-year-old Centennial resident spends six to eight hours a day in his shop creating wooden artworks.

Centennial resident Bob Webb holds the framed scene he created from a single piece of wood. He used a scroll saw to cut out the intricate pattern that makes up the design then backed it in black to show the details of the scene. The 92-year-old artisan said he loves his hobby and devotes as much time to working with wood as he would if he had a full-time job. Photos by Tom Munds

Retired farmer creates art from wood Centennial resident took up woodworking hobby in 1984

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com The hum of the scroll saw filled the shop as Bob Webb focused on creating another of his wooden works of art. On this day, he worked on a wooden cross. His skilled hands guided the saw blade as he followed the intricate pattern cutting away small sections of the wood, transforming the solid body of the cross into a lace-like pattern. He spends six to eight hours

a day creating his art, some of which is sold at Re-Nu/Blue Chair Store at 3473 S. Broadway, Englewood. “I grew up on a farm in Montana and farmers don’t have a lot of time for a hobby,” the 92-yearold Centennial resident said. “I have always loved making things out of wood, but never had the time or the tools.” When he retired in Montana, he converted a chicken coop into a workshop, bought some basic tools and got started. The shop grew with more and better tools until his daughter, Victoria Stoffa, persuaded him and her mother, Sylvia, to move to Colorado seven years ago. “I traveled back and forth almost every weekend for a long

time and finally they agreed to move a couple blocks from me,” Stoffa said. Fortunately, there was a small building already in the yard of his Centennial home that made a good workshop. “I never knew what it was not to be busy since I was a little kid,” he said. “I retired and just couldn’t stand not being busy doing something productive, so I took up my work with wood. I am thankful that I really love my hobby because I probably wouldn’t still be here if wasn’t working with wood.” Webb uses patterns from magazines about woodworking and wood art to make his pieces. “I look over the magazines and, when I see a pattern of an

item I think I would like to make, I trace it on paper, glue the paper pattern to the wood and go to work,” he said. “My work schedule varies. For example, if a customer wants a particular item that is what I immediately work on. Otherwise, I just work on what happens to interest me. Lately, I have really enjoyed working on religious-theme items like crosses.” Until recently, Webb made the wooden items and Sylvia tole-painted them. Tole painting is the folk art of painting on wooden utensils, furniture and decorative items. “I enjoyed doing the painting,” she said. “And we did it until I stopped because it wasn’t easy any longer to see clearly

what I was working on.” Webb, with the help of his daughter, takes examples of his art works to craft shows. Besides displaying and selling some of his items at Re-Nu/Blue Chair, he also has a store at his home. For information on the store and the items Webb makes, call 303798-4487. “People seem to like my creations and I have been told there are examples of my work in just about every state, plus in overseas countries like Iceland, Japan and Sweden,” Webb said. “I enjoy working with wood and I have no thought of giving up my hobby. So you probably can find me any day in my shop making something out of wood.”

Surgery tech pleads guilty in drug theft Judge wants assessment of needle before deciding on HIV-positive man’s sentence By Colleen Slevin Associated Press A surgery technician pleaded guilty to taking fentanyl, an opiate more powerful than morphine, from Swedish Medical Center — a crime that raised concerns that hundreds of patients might have been exposed to HIV. Rocky Allen, a former Navy medic who authorities say is HIV-positive and got hooked on painkillers while serving in Afghanistan, pleaded guilty to federal charges of tampering with a consumer product and obtaining a controlled sub-

stance by deception. Allen was fired in January from Swedish Medical Center in Englewood after another worker said he saw that Allen had switched a fentanyl syringe with one containing saline. The situation led the hospital to urge nearly 3,000 patients treated during Allen’s time at the medical center to be tested for hepatitis and HIV. The Colorado health department later said there was no evidence of transmission from Allen to patients or between patients due to possibly contaminated needles. The determination was made after the majority of those patients were tested. However, hundreds were not fully screened at Swedish. A case summary filed in court by prosecutors said Allen did not protest when was fired from a series of hospitals

around the West where he was suspected of stealing syringes from operating rooms and was once found passed out in a bathroom stall with a syringe. Allen previously told officials at Lakewood Surgery Center in Washington state, “Oh yeah, I totally understand,” when he was fired after fentanyl vials disappeared, the summary states. Allen wore a gray suit in court July 12 and calmly answered questions from Judge Raymond Moore about whether he understood his guilty plea. Allen remains free on bail and declined comment as he left the courthouse. Moore said he wants investigators to tell him whether the replacement needle that Allen left behind at Swedish was dirty or clean. He said that would be an important factor in determining a sentence for Allen, who could face up to

14 years in prison. The court document filed by prosecutors alleges Allen didn’t reveal his previous jobs when applying for new positions and said he had been laid off instead of fired. In some cases, he lied on applications by saying he had never been convicted of a crime even though he pleaded guilty in 2011 to stealing 30 vials of fentanyl and a fentanyl syringe and making false statements, prosecutors said. During his court-martial in 2011, Allen said he suffered from depression and post-traumatic stress disorder and that he stole the drugs to “try to escape” Kandahar, Afghanistan. He was sentenced then to 30 days behind bars and received a general discharge.

If you don’t want to lose it — use it Have you ever heard that saying, “Use it or lose it?” It is probably one of those messages we have all heard time and time again, so much so that maybe it has lost some of its power or meaning, or we have conditioned ourselves to ignore it. It is like when we do not use our creativity, our minds can become dull. When we do not work out, our muscles can atrophy or shrink. We either “use it or lose it.” How many of us have bookshelves or libraries in our home or office filled with books we have never read? Maybe we have downloaded a vast library of books onto our Kindle or other e-reading device. We have had the very best of intentions to read the books when we purchased them or received them as a gift, but somehow or somewhere along the busy highway of life, the books have become part of the decor as opposed to providing us with a source of education, information or entertainment. This “use it or lose it” scenario always reminds me of something that Zig Ziglar used to say all the time, “People who do not read are no better off than the people that can’t read.” What about our home gym equipment? The same can be said of that for many of us. Perhaps you have a treadmill, some weights, a stair-stepper or total gym in your home. This equipment may be in your basement or garage, or maybe even in your office so you can get your workout in while working. Are

we using the equipment for working out or has it also become part of the decor? I have seen in some homes and offices where the gym equipment became another place to store things or hang the laundry on. And how many ads do we see where Michael Norton people are trying to WINNING sell their “almost new” or “like new” gym WORDS equipment? Go to any garage sale and there is probably better than a 50/50 chance that you will find sort of gym equipment for sale. Now what about our network? Many of us have a social network that we are a part of or a business community that we work in and support. Do we tap into our friends when we are needing support or help? Or do we try and get through the tough times alone? Do we energize others or become energized by sharing our successes and celebrating our wins with those closest to us? As part of a business community we have associates and customers. If we do not actively pursue growth opportunities, seek referrals or new opportunities we can certainly fall into the trap of “using it or losing it.” I

was speaking with one of my customers who is a sales professional. She shared with me that she had stopped asking her clients for referrals. Not because she didn’t know how, she just became complacent about it. Her wake-up call came when she finally remembered to ask a good customer for a referral only to be told that they had just referred someone else to their contacts. One of the things I enjoy most in my network is the time I spend with people whom I know I can learn from. My trusted advisers and people who give me great ideas when we have a chance to brainstorm is one way that I maximize my network and keep myself sharp. Whether it’s our creativity and our minds, our bodies or our connections, if we do not use what we have right in front of us, we will lose it as any area that is ignored and stays ignored will atrophy. So how about you? Are you “using it or losing it”? Are your books, gym equipment and networks collecting dust? I would love to hear all about how you are maximizing everything at your fingertips at gotonorton@ gmail.com, and when we make the most of what we have, it really will be a better than good 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.

Taking a look back, and ahead

It is never comforting when you hear Wall Street analysts predict high volatility, belowaverage earnings and continued uncertainty around the globe. This would be enough to cause any investor to stick their head in the sand for Patricia Kummer a few years and see if FINANCIAL things get better later. But you can’t be STRATEGIES Rip Van Winkle or an ostrich. Investors need to work at earning money every day. Whether your goal is in a few years or a few decades, decisions in 2016 could affect you indefinitely. Last month we learned that static allocations alone may not be enough to reduce the new risks that are creeping into accounts due to global issues. Since that last article we had Britain vote to leave the European Union and, with that, triple-digit market volatility for several weeks. Last week we had an unusual jobs report for June, showing 287,000 new nonfarm jobs created after a disappointing May report of only 38,000 new jobs. These extreme fluctuations in just two months’ time put the markets into another whirlwind. Now we are entering earnings season once again, where major companies report their second-quarter earnings and forecast for the remainder of the year. The last four consecutive quarters, earnings have been negative. This equates to an “earnings recession” which can pull back the possibility of good returns on equity investments in the near term. This quarter, the reports are expected to be “less negative.” This is a new term we are learning to mean as a good thing. However, less of a vacuum is still a difficult environment. As dismal as these economic indicators appear so far, there is always opportunity somewhere. Growth is the necessary fuel for the economic engine that moves us forward, Kummer continues on Page 11

‘So’ is so, well, so, when it’s not so-so So, how’s your cat? Certain words are reborn from time to time, and get used over and over. And over. “So” is one of them. I am so honored, so thrilled, and so Craig Marshall Smith happy. And you may have noticed QUIET that “so” is being DESPERATION used a lot lately to begin a sentence. “Transparency” is still having its day. It’s understandable, because the synonyms are inconvenient. For example: “pellucidity.” Instead of explaining why someone or something is superior, we chose the word “arguably” to cover everything, as in, “She is arguably the best ventriloquist in Castle Rock.” You can just leave it at that, and not go

into any depth. It’s awesome, dog. The word “about” is very handy too. A friend of mine said, “It’s not about the penguins. It’s about you and Jennifer.” I said, “I thought it was about the penguins, but you’re saying that it’s about Jennifer and me? I am going to have to think about this.” Any seemingly unusual experience is “surreal.” Salvador Dali was a surrealist. He was once asked if he took drugs, because his paintings seemed so, well, surreal. His answer was perfect. “I am drugs,” he said. Movie promotions say things like, “Daniel Craig is James Bond.” “Kirk Douglas is Spartacus.” “Patty Duke is Helen Keller.” How can that be? It’s an attempt to convince an audience in advance that a portrayal surpasses metaphysics and the laws of reality. I am happy just to be me, but now and then I wouldn’t mind being Anne Hathaway.

Thankfully, a few words and phrases have been shelved. For instance, “for sure.” Anyone sporting the word “groovy” might be in for some scowls, and should be. I’ll bet you haven’t heard “dig” in a while either. I had a drawing teacher who used to ask us if we understood what he had just said simply by saying, “Dig?” The worst, most unbearable, atrocious song of the 20th century was “I Dig Rock and Roll Music.” It was cliché ridden. An attempt by a group whose time had come and gone to appropriate trending words. Peter, Paul and Mary. “I figure it’s about the happiest sound goin’ down today.” It’s execrable straight off, but it worsens. “The message may not move me or mean a great deal to me, but, hey, it feels so groovy to say.” I have always thought that the lyrics were actually mocking the performers and the music.

Kummer Continued from Page 10

pays down debt and allows for expansion. Consumers may be losing patience as this has been one of the longest recoveries in history, 27 quarters so far. It feels like a slow uphill battle at a snail’s pace, but we are making progress. The bright spots are improving employment, solid housing prices and continued low inflation and low interest rates. The Brexit pushed back the Federal Reserve Board’s decision to increase interest rates last month along with some countries in Europe issuing bonds at negative interest rates. This has caused significant fluctuations in U.S. bond prices, and yields hit an all-time low. Investor demand from around the world pushed domestic bond prices higher as fewer Europeans wanted to invest in negative bonds of their own. This makes owning equities a bit more attractive than fixed income given these circumstances.

For instance, the Mamas and Papas are commended “when (their) words don’t get in the way.” The song wraps up with horrific references to Donovan and the Beatles, and “I dig, oh, rock and roll music, I could really get it on in that scene.” It’s torture. I began this because there is a word that is going around and around that I wish would take a holiday. Namely “icon.” That’s the Word of the Day. What does it take to qualify? I am an icon to my dog. Have you heard of Mallory Pugh yet? She’s was a local high school soccer icon. There is much more of Pugh on the way. Then there are the iconic icons. Muhammad Ali, Prince, David Bowie, Pat Summit and Scotty Moore were all iconic icons. You don’t know Scotty Moore? He died recently. He was Elvis Presley’s guitarist, and he was great. Keith Richards said, “Everyone else wanted to be Elvis. I wanted to be Scotty.” Well, I can make that happen. “Keith Richards is Scotty Moore.” Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

Keep in mind that equities are a longterm solution as volatility remains escalated especially during earnings season and Fed rate hike uncertainty. One of the best outlooks may be in Emerging Markets, in particular China. Their economic recovery could be a significant driver of worldwide growth over the next five to 10 years. You deserve to have a custom strategy based on your goals and time frame to help navigate these unprecedented times. Don’t guess … it could be an expensive lesson.

Fitness comes to breweries Trainers behind Brewery Boot Camp say the whole point of fitness is being able to enjoy a beer

By Kyle Harding kharding@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Personal trainer Paul Chavez motivates his pupils at a Brewery Boot Camp workout at 38 State Brewing Company on Memorial Day weekend.

or personal trainers Paul and Lindsay Chavez, physical fitness is important. But so is enjoying your life. “You can’t be physically fit, if you’re not mentally fit,” Paul said. That’s the idea that led him and his wife, Lindsay, to bring their full-body workout classes to breweries around the metro area through their company, Strength Train 4 Life. “If you can’t enjoy a good beer,” Paul said, “it’s not worth it.” Plenty of people agree. Back when the Chavezes ran workouts for groups of their friends in parks on weekends, they noticed a trend. “Afterwards, everybody would go get beers,” Lindsay said. In December of last year, the couple held their first Brewery Boot Camp event at Dry Dock Brewing Company in Aurora, where they live. Since then, they’ve held workouts nearly every weekend at different breweries, including St. Patrick’s Brewing Company and 38 State Brewing Company in Littleton, Lone Tree Brewing Company in Lone Tree and Elk Mountain Brewing in Parker. “We eventually want to be in the whole Denver area,” Lindsay said. Paul and Lindsay both have bachelor’s degrees in health and exercise science. They also are homebrewers, so combining the two seemed natural. In a blog post on their website last month, they offered tips on following a healthy diet and workout plan without completely cutting out alcohol, reminding readers that alcohol is a sugar and to consume in moderation. At their home base of Dry Dock, the Chavezes typically draw about 35

BREW RUNS COMBINE RUNNING AND BEER Strength Train 4 Life’s Brewery Boot Camps are not the Denver-area’s only option for those who wish to combine working out and drinking beer. Rocky Mountain Brew Runs pair familyfriendly, dog-friendly 5K runs with events at breweries that include fitness challenges and food trucks. Brew Runs come to the south metro area on Sept. 11 with a run at Littleton’s St. Patrick’s Brewing Company. Entry to the run is $25 and includes a beer, a sticker and a coaster. For more information, visit www.rockymountainbrewruns.com. participants. About 15 showed up to a workout at 38 State on Memorial Day weekend. Participants have ranged in age from too young to buy a beer up to the mid-70s. Breweries typically open at

noon on Sundays, so the Chavezes and their clients meet at 11 a.m., warm up and then go into a 50-minute workout. “We’re ready to drink beer at noon right when the brewery opens,” Lindsay said. It’s a symbiotic relationship with the breweries. Steve Schuett, general manager of 38 State, said the bootcamps help boost their numbers on Sundays. “It is a perfect event for our space and patrons,” he said. Jodi Levine of Denver, who participated in the Memorial Day weekend workout at 38 State, had been to one of Brewery Boot Camp’s workouts at Dry Dock as well. “I think it’s awesome, and you get a reward afterward,” she said as she stretched before beginning the workout. Like Levine, many participants have returned multiple times. Steve and Angie Mueting of Aurora, visiting 38 State for the first time, have been to several boot camps.

BREWERY BOOT CAMP SCHEDULE Paul and Lindsay Chavez hold Brewery Boot Camp nearly every weekend at different breweries throughout the area. They return to St. Patrick’s Brewing Company in Littleton on July 24, followed by 38 State Brewing Company on July 31 and Lone Tree Brewing Company on Aug. 7. For more information, visit www.strength train4life.com. “The workouts kick your butt,” Angie said. But they’re not so hard as to scare away the uninitiated. The workouts feature mostly bodyweight movements, with some kettlebell or medicine ball activities. “We want to be able to cater to all fitness levels,” Paul said. At 38 State, participants spent 50 minutes cycling through 15 stations, using the inside of the brewery, the patio and the parking lot. Moving to a new station about halfway through the workout, Steve Mueting was winded. “I’ve been doing too much breweries and not enough boot camp,” he said. But after the workout, it was time for a beer or two — at a discounted price. “I usually go for an amber or a red,” Steve Mueting said, before ordering the 38 State Red. The workout also passed the test for Martino Martinez of Highlands Ranch, a personal trainer with South Suburban Parks and Recreation District. “It was awesome,” he said. “A total body workout — and a beer after.”

Protest music contains songs of immediacy At the beginning of the year, I encouraged readers to listen to more rap music as a way to understand the inequality and disenfranchisement facing so many in the African-American community. The tragedies in the past weeks have powerfully reaffirmed the importance of the genre and its artists. The recent fatal police shootings of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile and the ambush in Dallas that resulted in the deaths of five police officers drove many hip-hop artists to vent their fear, anger and frustration in songs released online. Listening to them opens a window into a culture under assault. But, more importantly, for those of us who’ve been lucky enough to not endure the same trials, the songs provide some much-needed understanding and empathy. The one that garnered the most attention came from Jay Z, who released “Spiritual,” his first track as lead performer since 2013. In a note on his website, he wrote about beginning the song in 2014 with the police shooting of Michael Brown, but deciding to hold onto it because the issue would always be relevant. “I’m saddened and disappointed in THIS America — we should be further along,” he wrote. The song is a mournful self-examination and finds Jay Z the most open and honest he’s been in a long time. The tinkling keys that drive the track sound as if they were pulled from a funeral march. The hook’s lyrics are heartbreaking: “I am

not poison, no I am not poison/Just a boy from the hood that/Got my hands in the air.” Jay Z is not only describing victims of police brutality, but also himself and his peers. He makes the personal universal — it’s a quintessenClarke Reader tial example of the power of the music. LINER ScHoolboy Q’s NOTES sophomore album “Blank Face LP,” one of hip-hop’s most eagerly awaited releases of the year, was scheduled to come out on July 8 — just days after the Sterling and Castile shootings and the day after the Dallas ambush. Because hip-hop has embraced the internet so fully, ScHoolboy was able to remix the lead single “THat Part,” featuring verses that address the situation, to coincide with the album’s release. ScHoolboy is angry — not just because of the injustice occurring, but because it will continue: “I feel bad that my daughter gotta live this life/I’ll die for my daughter, gotta fight that fight/Put our blank faces on, gotta let that dry.” While Jay Z looks inward and ScHoolboy looks for hope, R&B star Miguel tapped into the genre’s socially conscious history and issued a broken-hearted call

A NEW GENERATION OF PROTEST SONGS Here is a list of songs that directly address recent events: “Alright” - Kendrick Lamar “Better Days” feat. Ariana Grande - Victoria Monet “Freedom” feat. Kendrick Lamar - Beyoncé “Glory” feat. John Legend - Common “Hands Up” feat. Killer Mike - Daye Jack “IDKY” - Slim Thug “Magic Bullet” - My Morning Jacket “No Justice, No Peace” feat. Mike Dean - Z-Ro “Sad News” feat. Scarface - Swizz Beatz “6 Shots” - Mistah F.A.B. for change on “How Many.” The helplessness and frustration is out front in Miguel’s voice, and since the only backing he uses is a slippery electric guitar line, the effect is amplified. He channels Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes’ 1975 classic “Wake Up Everybody,” but the lyrics are focused on the here and now: “I’m tired of human lives turned into hashtags and prayer hands/I’m tired of watching these murderers get off.” There needs to be a change in the country, Miguel sings, and as his lyrics show, it’s only through unity that change will become possible:

Innocent brothers and sisters it’s time to wake up, wake up, wake up Brothers and sisters it’s time to say something, do something, make ‘em Mmm I wonder, how many Blacks lives, how many Black lives How many heartbeats turned into flat lines How many Blacks lives, how many Black lives Does it take to wake the change? That’s the question I keep asking myself. There’s no one answer or one area that needs addressing — everything must be considered, from policing standards and gun violence to the elevation of AfricanAmerican voices and the media’s role. Those of us without the experiences of many in the African-American community need to pay attention to what they’re saying, and the music coming out of these tragedies is a crucial pathway to increased awareness. Listen, appreciate what these voices add to the conversation, and become part of the solution. We owe that much to each other.

Kaleidoscope show is an ACC extravaganza Exhibition will be at college until Aug. 11 closing reception By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com In late April a call-for-artists went out for the 12th Annual Kaleidoscope Juried Art Exhibition, scheduled for July at the Colorado Gallery of the Arts at Arapahoe Community College. The exhibit was initiated as a cooperative effort between a now-discontinued Littleton arts council and ACC to give additional exposure to area artists as well as opportunity for the community to view their work. Trish Sangelo — the gallery coordinator — and the ACC Art Department have continued to run the exhibit. It includes paintings, drawings, mixed media, photographs and small 3-D works. It opened this year on July 11 and will run until Aug. 11, with a reception on closing night rather than opening night. On Aug. 11, the reception will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. at the gallery, with artists

picking up their work afterward. Juror Angela Faris Belt, photographer, artist, writer and educator and author of the popular book “Elements of Photography” (published in the U.K.), is chair of the Studio Art, Art History and Photography Department at ACC. She said in her juror’s statement: “Though there were many high quality entries, not all could be accepted.” She wanted to share her criteria for inclusion. “First, an artwork’s Belt Concept is important. I appreciate work that urges viewers to see or understand something in a new way, that pushes the content beyond cliché. Second, I look for effective use of Visual Language to communicate the concept. No matter the medium, I look for an artist to use composition and the medium’s technical and physical attributes to construct artwork in a visually appealing or interesting way. And finally, Presentation Quality can never be ignored. Things such as 2-D

IF YOU GO Kaleidoscope is at the Colorado Gallery of the Arts at Arapahoe Community College, 5900 S. Santa Fe Drive, Littleton, through Aug. 11. A closing public reception will be from 5 to 7 p.m on Aug. 11. Gallery hours: noon to 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, until 7 p.m. on Tuesdays. Closed on Saturdays, Sundays. work that’s flat with nicely cut window mats, paintings and drawings with nicely-considered edges, and 3-D work that is thoughtfully presented all contribute to the quality of the artwork itself.” She named the following award winners: • First place went to Linda Schmale for her well-crafted raku ceramic box, called “Birds of the Air.” It is glazed with crackly off-white with silhouetted black birds on all sides and the message, “Look at the Birds” on the edge of the lid. • Second place went to Charis S.G. Casey’s dense, dark portrait, “There’s a

War Inside My Head,” created with airbrush ink, graphite, pastel powder, pencil and paint. Right out of the headlines … • Third place went to Bobbi Shupe’s “Memories,” a piece on a lighter note — a mixed media painting of a blond, pretty child with a balloon behind her. The painting is executed on a collage of old sheet music. • Honorable mentions were given to Rosanne Juergens’ photograph, “Bottles on Display,” and Barbara Veatch’s strong mixed media painting, “Falling Out of Summer.” The heavy black frame and sheen of glass enhance the painting. Honorable mentions also went to: “Oh Blackbird … Sing One Last Song For Me,” a delicate drawing of a nude by Charis S.G. Casey, with graphite, pastel powder and pencil; to “A Beauty” by Lynette Planck-Kupferer, for a drawing of a large, elaborate flower done with colored pencil, acrylic and mixed pen; to “Somniferum,” a watercolor of poppies by Gail Firmin; to Celeste Hodges’ mixed media collage “Flight from DIA”; and to “On the Drum Line,” a bronze of a soldier by Steve McCall.

New sculptures installed as part of public art program Douglas County hopes to draw more visitors By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com Readers may remember “Molly, Dieter and Susie,” the trio of rotund bronze dogs who spent the past year near the entrance of the James H. Larue Library in Highlands Ranch. They received daily additional polishing from loving kids who hugged and climbed on them and then were purchased by Highlands Ranch to live permanently at a recreation center. This year, Maureen Hearty’s “Touching Sound,” near the library, invites children and adults to make music by touching it.

It is one of 27 newly placed sculptures, both traditional and contemporary, located in public spaces in Highlands Ranch, Lone Tree, Parker and Castle Rock, thanks to Douglas County’s ongoing Art Encounters program. It is a yearlong outdoor sculpture exhibit organized by the Douglas County Cultural Council that showcases a number of sculptures in various media and styles. Readers are encouraged to seek them out as one travels through the communities. The pieces are listed online at www. douglas.co.us/artencounters. They are displayed in highly visible areas in a project designed to promote public interest in art, develop community pride and draw visitors to the areas where pieces are exhibited. Sculptures are selected from the

entries by the Public Art Advisory Committee, appointed by the Douglas County Cultural Council. Present committee members are: Highlands Ranch, Larry Perkins and Manijeh Badiozamani; Lone Tree, Nora Pearson; Roxborough Arts Council, Patricia Jenkins, Flo Tonelli, LeeAnn Jimenez; Town of Castle Rock, Karine Beard; Town of Parker, Andrew C. Hawkins, Mary Williams; Douglas County Cultural Council, Jack Christiansen. That committee also decides which artwork will go where and each piece is displayed with title, artist’s name and year, as well as the Art Encounters logo. Each community has established some somewhat permanent, high-visibility exhibit locations in the course of the eight years the program has been in place. Entries are invited via CAFÉ from

November until February, with the opportunity for artists to display and sell their work. A total of 10 pieces have been purchased from the program: by the Town of Castle Rock (two); Otero Junior College (one); Highlands Ranch (four pieces, all placed in recreation centers); Parker (one); and Park Meadows (one — placed at the Vistas in Lone Tree). Each year a People’s Choice is chosen and that artist receives a check for $1,000, as does a piece earning the Judges’ Award. Artists whose work is selected will receive a stipend of $800 (up this year from $500). Funding comes from the participating communities and the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District, excepting Castle Rock, which is not in the district. Prices range from $2,400 to $22,000. Touring encouraged!

The city council enacted a 90-day emergency moratorium on new land-use applications in the district last month, prohibiting new applications for site plans, subdivisions, rezonings and conditional uses while the city considers a zoning update following outcry over the 160-unit Grove senior apartment complex and retail project under construction at the southwest corner of Bemis Street and Littleton Boulevard. The B2 zoning district, which covers 264 acres in the city, is for businesses that meet the needs of the surrounding community. The proposed change to zoning in the district would require residential uses in the zone to obtain a conditional-use permit, which means such uses would face a public hearing in front of the planning board. Currently the community business zone allows residential uses, provided the residential space does not take up more than half of the floor area of any structure. The Grove project was approved in April as a use-by-right, meaning it was not required to go through any public hearings, to the chagrin of homeowners near the development and members of Littleton’s “Sunshine” group. The moratorium was first proposed by Councilmember Debbie Brinkman at the June 7 meeting after a contentious discussion about The Grove, and it was passed at a special meeting on June 14 by a 6-0

The council is scheduled to have a first reading of it on Aug. 16 and a second reading and public hearing on Sept. 6. Kuhn said that one business has attempted to submit an application for a new use, while about seven have called to inquire about it in the month that the shutdown has been in place. “We’ve had to say ‘no, there’s a moratorium,’” she said. The Miseners said that their potential tenant, who was planning to lease-to-own the building, won’t wait until September and decided to move on, leaving them out a $6,000-per-month lease while they’re still on the hook for $12,000 per year in property taxes. “We’ve been doing business in the city of Littleton for 27 years and I honestly feel we’re getting the shaft,” Jim Misener said.

‘Mary Poppins’ flies to Englewood stage Summer musical will run for three days at school

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@colorado communitymedia.com A man of many talents, Bert appears early in “Mary Poppins,” the Disney and Cameron Mitchell version, to introduce the house at 17 Cherry Tree Lane, where the Banks family — and eventually the magical Mary Poppins — live. The musical version of the popular tale is Englewood’s choice for its 52nd annual summer musical production, which plays July 29 to 31 in the Fisher Theater at Englewood High School. Music is by Robert and Richard Sherman and George Stiles and lyrics by the Shermans and Anthony Drewe. The original script was written by Julian Fellowes of “Downton Abbey” fame, an expert on British history of the Edwardian period. Bill Ambron, retired EHS drama teacher and director, is back for the summer to direct a cast of 95 children and adults in this very popular summer arts program. Jennifer Brickley and Ashley Brown are assisting Ambron. Children have been attending related summer drama classes through the recreation department, and adults bring some experience and a love of performing on the stage. Many readers will be familiar with P.L. Travers’ beloved books and/or the popular Disney film, but previous exposure is surely not necessary. Magical Mary Poppins arrives at the Banks’ somewhat troubled residence on Cherry Tree Lane,

Amdee Royer portrays the legendary Mary Poppins and Lexi Lubotsky is Jane, while Josh Feldman plays Michael in Englewood’s summer musical, “Mary Poppins,” July 29, 30, 31 . Courtesy photo where a nanny is badly needed. (The previous nanny left because the children were so naughty.) She floats in with her parrothead-handled umbrella and quickly whips things into order. Children Jane and Michael meet Bert and other intriguing characters, such as the Bird Lady, while their parents resolve some issues with the bank where Mr. Banks works — and at home, where Mrs. Banks is not happy. Amedee Royer plays the role of the wondrous Mary Poppins

and Matt Kok plays Bert. (Both are new to the summer program.) Ten-year Englewood summer program veteran and former Ambron drama student Xander Trullinger plays Mr. George Banks, while new actor Sarah Kincannon plays the mother, Winifred Banks. In her fourth year in the program, Lexie Lubotsky is young Jane Banks and Mary Poppins’ other charge, little brother Michael Banks, is played by Josh Feldman, in his first year with the Englewood musical.

But, giving the same gift to yourself can seem almost unobtainable. This doesn’t have to be as challenging as you may believe. Learn simple techniques along with new beliefs and find the greatest love of all. YOU! Loving yourself without conditions can change your life and the lives that you touch daily.

Denver Art Museum has all the moves Hamilton Building exhibit explores theme of dance

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com From the moment one walks onto the Martin Plaza outside the Denver Art Museum’s Hamilton Building, the feet pick up a rhythm. “In Motion: An Outdoor Installation” in bright color invites the visitor to dance in and around it before entering the museum door. It will provide a backdrop for visitors to dance, as well as for appearances by many professional troupes through the summer, when the campuswide theme is “Dance!” (A young child carrying a stick with flowing ribbons and a little white terrier were dancing with the terrace fountains on a recent morning.) Inside, one first looks up at mural-sized paintings of American Indian dancers on the high white walls. On the ground floor, walk back to the Gallagher Gallery to enjoy “Why We Dance: American Indian Art in Dance

and Motion” which includes a wide range of colorful Indian dance regalia: headdresses, jingle dresses, men’s and women’s Fancy Dance costumes, masks, jewelry and musical instruments, including drums. Paintings depict native dances that were meant to cure disease, protect or defend from animals and more. This multi-sensory exhibit includes 86 works, 78 drawn from the Denver Art Museum’s extensive American Indian Art collection. A large painting of ballroom dancers by Arthur Bowes Davies called “Dances,” 1914/15, at the exhibit’s entrance on the second floor, introduces “Rhythm & Roots: Dance in American Art,” organized by the Detroit Institute of Art. It includes about 90 paintings, drawings, photographs, sculptures and costumes (including the tutu Anna Pavlova wore in her famous Dying Swan performances in the ballet “Swan Lake”). Art covers 1830 to 1960, with paintings of famous dancers including Americans Isadora Duncan, Katherine Dunham, Fred Astaire and Josephine Baker, Spanish

Caddies take road less traveled Carrying a golf bag for money often a labor of love By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Carmen Garcia is enjoying her second year as a caddie. “The opportunity was offered to me... and I thought it was interesting and different,” said Garcia, a sophomore-to-be at St. Mary’s Academy in Cherry Hills Village. “I never played golf but I’m getting the hang of caddying.” Garcia is among the dozens of youths taking part in the Solich Caddie and Leadership Academy at CommonGround Golf Course in Aurora. The academy is part of an effort by the Colorado Golf Association to keep caddies in the game. Caddies, while very visible on the professional tours, seem to belong to a bygone era when it comes to amateur golf, where most players opt to traverse the course in a cart. But in the Denver metro area, the trade of carrying a golf bag for money is amid something of a resurgence. Jake Pendergast, who will be a junior at Regis Jesuit, is a caddie at Colorado Golf Club in Parker. “I picked up caddying because I love golf and learning about the game,” he said. “There’s not too many ways to make money and have fun. Caddying is fun.” The evolution Caddies go back to the beginning of golf. Historians believe that Mary, Queen of Scots, came up with the term caddying in the late 16th century. She grew up in France, where military cadets carried golf clubs for royalty. The game began to rise in popularity in the United States in the 1900s and caddies were a fixture on public and private courses alike — for at least

Nick Mayhan, a student at Mullen High School and a first-year caddie at Columbine County Club, smooths out the bunker near the 10th green at Columbine. Photo by Jim Benton the first half of the century, until the emergence of the golf cart. “Since the mid-1950s the spread of the motorized golf cart has been popular with golfers and a financial boon for the courses,” the Professional Caddies Association states on its website. “Carts have quickly become the caddie’s worst enemy. Caddies, and walking, aren’t in the equation. By the mid-1970s the conversion was virtually complete. Even the cost of a cart rental is less expensive than hiring a caddie.”

Former Pirates battle inside the cage Three Englewood High School graduates compete in martial arts By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com When Nick Navarro, Justin Moss and Heath Soderstrom entered the cage, members of the crowd shouted: “Go Pirates!” The three were former Englewood High School athletes who were combatants at the July 16 Sparta Combat League Mixed Martial Arts 16-bout fight card at Douglas County Events Center in Castle Rock. Navarro and Moss faced off in a Muay Thai battle and Soderstrom fought for the professional heavyweight title. Navarro and Moss, high school friends, agreed it was tough to fight each other. But both also agreed the friendship was at least

“

partially left at the cage entrance as both men sought to win what was their first Muay Thai professional fight. Muay Thai is a combat sport of Thailand. The style involves stand-up fighting, striking with fists, legs, arms and elbows. Navarro and Moss went the distance as they fought a fast-paced three rounds of five minutes each. Both fighters landed telling punches and kicks. None of the blows was enough to end the bout, although Navarro scored two knockdowns. Scoring was close, but the three judges unanimously named Navarro the winner. Navarro, who now lives in Northglenn, played football for the Pirates and was on the 2002 team that advanced to the playoffs. He played football on a scholarship at Western State University in Gunnison. Fights continues on Page 23

I thought the fight went pretty well because Justin Moss is a very tough opponent. There are things I can improve on. I beat up his legs pretty good with my kicks, but he is a tough kid and it is hard to put a guy like that away for the count. I am just very happy I came out of the cage with a win.”

“I played football for Western State for a couple years and then I decided to join the Army,” Navarro said. “I completed Ranger training, so I served in both Afghanistan and Iraq.” He left the Army in 2008 and started martial arts training when his friend Nate Johnson invited him to train at his gym. “I thought the fight went pretty well because Justin Moss is a very tough opponent,” Navarro said after the fight. “There are things I can improve on. I beat up his legs pretty good with my kicks, but he is a tough kid and it is hard to put a guy like that away for the count. I am just very happy I came out of the cage with a win.” Moss, a Littleton resident, played soccer and graduated from Englewood High School in 2004. He received a scholarship and played soccer for New Mexico State University, where he earned a criminal justice degree. He works in youth corrections for the state of Colorado. “Fighting against a friend was tougher than I thought it would be,” Moss said after the fight. “Nick and I both have a lot of respect for each other. The fight was fun. I enjoyed myself even though I fought my friend Nick and although the decision didn’t go my way. I have a lot more tools than I used tonight and I will continue to train hard and improve my skills.”

Soderstrom, of Parker, faced Jason Colburn in the semi-main bout for the vacant SLC professional heavyweight title. The near-capacity crowd was on its feet for most of the five minutes of the first round as the two men battled. Both fighters landed solid punches and their faces showed the impact of the blows. But the bout lasted only one round. Colburn landed a blow that created a large cut over Soderstrom’s left eye. Between rounds, the attending doctor ruled the injury was too severe to allow the fight to continue and stopped it due to medical reasons. “I didn’t want him to stop the fight,” Soderstrom said after the bout. “I know I was cut but I still wanted to fight. I hate it that I put in all the work for a shot at the title only to have them stop the fight after the first round because of this cut. We need somebody to invent something that will cure cuts like this immediately so this kind of thing won’t happen.” It took 15 stitches to close the cut. SCL rules won’t allow him to compete for at least the next 30 days. “I will continue training and, once I am cleared, I will train harder because I want to get back into competition and I want to earn another shot at that professional heavyweight title,” Soderstrom said. Soderstrom played football and wrestled at Englewood High School. He graduated from EHS in 2001 and accepted a sports scholarship to Adams State College where he was an All-American in wrestling and finished fourth in the collegiate wrestling nationals in his senior year.

Caddies

Decades-old movie still in play

Continued from Page 22

By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com “Caddyshack” has acquired a large cult following and been acclaimed by many as one of the funniest sports movies ever. The movie, released in 1980 and often shown today on cable TV, features comedy legends Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield, Ted Knight and Bill Murray. Among other things, the film focuses on a young caddie looking to earn money for college, golf course gambling and a destructive gopher. Many golfers — and even nonplayers — can quote dozens of lines from the movie. So what do local caddies and officials think of the movie? Here’s a look at some responses: “It’s all accurate. There is not much stretch there.” — Steve Oberst, Cherry Hills caddie “Our office watches it all the time. We love that movie.” — Emily Olson, Colorado Golf Association manager of caddie development “It was great. I quote it all the time and there are members that quote it all the time out here.” — Molly Lucas, Cherry Hills caddie “It’s my favorite movie. It sort of resembles what goes on here between caddies being scratched, people showing up and people not showing up. Then, hearing the complaints and comments about each member when they (caddies) come in.” — Kevin Shafer, one of Cherry Hills’ caddiemasters “It’s a good interpretation of what goes on. It shows how fun golf can be.” — Pilo Troup, assistant caddiemaster at Lakewood Country Club “I’ve never seen ‘Caddyshack.’” — Jake Pendergast, caddie at Colorado Golf Club

In Colorado, though, caddies were down but not out. The Colorado Golf Association purchased and re-designed the former Vista Mira Golf Course and in 2009 opened CommonGround, located near East Alameda Avenue and Havana Street. The Solich Caddie and Leadership Academy was started there in 2012. Today, there are 11 Denver-metro area caddie programs, including the Solich Academy, which is the only one at a public course. Ed Mate, Colorado Golf Association executive director and a former caddie at Denver Country Club, calls the program a “game changer.” CommonGround has 45 eighth- and ninth-grade students as caddies this summer and has tutored more than 100 caddies since the Solich Academy started. Five have been awarded prestigious Evans scholarships to the University of Colorado. After two summers, CommonGround caddies are placed in existing Denver-area caddie programs. And there are hundreds of caddies in those programs. Columbine Country Club, which saw its caddie program go by the wayside 15 years ago, has 60 caddies working this summer. Cherry Hills Country Club has one of the top caddie programs in Colorado with 155 caddies working this summer. There are 50 caddies at Lakewood Country Club, and there has been a noted increase in loops — rounds caddied — so far this summer.

Molly Lucas, a Cherry Creek High School graduate, is a caddie at Cherry Hills Country Club. She played high school golf, which made it easier for her to adapt to the duties of a caddie. “It’s easy to pick up as long as you work hard,” she said. “I really don’t think there is a hard part, but it can be a long day, especially if you do more than one loop.” Photo by Jim Benton

What they do Caddies must have a certain measure of physical fitness. They carry bags that average about 25 pounds — though many bags have double straps, which make them more like backpacks. Years ago, bags were leather, as opposed to today’s lighter-weight materials, and single-strapped, making

them more difficult to tote. It’s been estimated that caddies probably walk about seven miles during a day’s work, depending on the loops. During their treks, caddies do more than carry the bag. How much they do depends on their skill and experience level. All will help locate balls, rake

bunkers, tend the flagstick and clean clubs and balls. More advanced caddies also help players make the proper club selection and read the greens on putts. In pro golf, “the caddie just has a gigantic role now,” said Bill Loeffler, owner of The Links at Highlands Ranch course and a former PGA Tour player.

Salomess Stars Salome FOR RELEASE WEEK OF JULY 18, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You’re not Sheepish when it comes to asserting your opinions on what you think is right or wrong. Be assured that you’re being heard, and something positive will follow. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your sense of justice makes it difficult not to speak up about a recurring matter involving a co-worker. But, once again, you need facts to back you up before you can act. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Romance is still dominant, and if Cupid misfired before, don’t worry. He’ll take better aim at someone new this time around. Expect favorable news about a financial matter. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The zodiac’s Moon Children can expect things to work out pretty much as planned. One negative note involves a minor relationship problem that suddenly turns serious.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Once again, you’re confronted by a workplace problem you thought you’d already resolved. This time, you might need to go higher up to find a just resolution.

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.

Use your sharp Scorpion instincts to determine if the information is reliable.

Answers
