Littleton Public Schools welcomed the kids back to class on Aug. 14, along with their new superintendent, Brian Ewert. “The first thing for me to do is to deeply understand this community,” he said. “This school district is a highfunctioning, well-oiled system that knows how it should work. There’s nothing really to come in and just fix.” Littleton is a long way from his family farm in Ogalala, Nebraska, where he was born to a preacher dad and a pianoteacher mom. Ewert He attended Jamestown College in North Dakota for a year on a track scholarship, and went on to earn a bachelor’s degree in education from the University of Nebraska in 1986. At the age of 22 he decided he needed a “big adventure,” so he moved to California to teach and finish his master’s degree at California State University. “That’s where I really began to understand the importance of public education,” he said. “There was abject poverty, and students speaking many different languages.” At the time, he said, teaching

‘I get no sense that Littleton is interested in creating a political battleground.’ Brian Ewert, Littleton Public Schools superintendent in California was complicated and there were not enough resources for schools. “So I thought, I can’t do this and do it well, so I need to find somewhere I can do it well or get out,” he said. “Colorado cares about education, regardless of funding problems.” He landed in Colorado Springs as a principal for five years, then went on to eventually become the director of human resources in the Douglas County School District. He left in 2010 before the controversy there began to really swirl. “I am cautious whenever we have partisan politics in the board room,” he said of what’s going on there and in Jefferson County now. “I don’t care if it’s right or left, we need to check that at the door. … The board of Ewert continues on Page 12

Littleton stops red-light cameras Police chief says results were mixed Staff report Love them or hate them, either way, they’re almost gone. Crews from American Traffic Solutions, which operates Littleton’s red-light cameras, were spotted on Aug. 3 beginning to take them down at Littleton Boulevard and Broadway. It could take up to a month to remove all the equipment, according to the Littleton Police Department. Littleton City Council voted unanimously in March to not renew its contract with ATS, so it ended July 31. “We think it’s been successful in a way, and not as successful as we’d hoped in a way,” Littleton

Police Chief Doug Stephens told council at the time. When council implemented the program in 2009, increasing safety was the stated priority. But data showed injury accidents only decreased at three of the intersections — with the biggest drop at Broadway and Littleton Boulevard — while actually increasing at the other two. Noninjury accidents increased at all of them except Broadway and Littleton Boulevard. Violations in general decreased from a high of 16,000 in 2010 to 9,000 last year. That meant a couple of things, said Stephens. First, the lights did what they were supposed to do and changed driving behavior. Second, the cost to the city per violation was getting increasingly Cameras continues on Page 12

HELLO

... My Name Is

and ice cream. I like the word “and,” because it’s a cool word, and because it means there’s something next.

A glimpse of the people in our community

My passion Music, because it’s magic. I like jazz and fun, rock and hip-hop. I play a lot of improv, but I write songs, too, mostly pop. I’m not a busker, although I was one on the 16th Street Mall when I was a teenager. Now I’m just somebody trying to get by. But music is the only thing I’ve known that has made sense. It’s the closest thing to God that I’ve ever seen or heard or witnessed.

ZACK ROLEY Guitarist, landscaper

Know this

My background? I grew up in Littleton. I’m 24, single, no kids. I grew up in Littleton and went to Euclid Middle School. I dropped out after that. But I’ve worked nonstop since then. Even if I don’t have a job, I’m still working. I have a landscaping company. I’m actually looking for anybody who needs good work done around town, whether it’s landscaping or music or construction.

My hobbies and interests I like long walks in nature, dogs and cats, squirrels and trees and babies. I like geometry

I’ve had many tests, and hopefully I pass the next one. Which I will, I have faith. And they would know that they are OK. That it’s OK to be better than you were the day you thought you were the best. Life is truly about love. Just like Jesus said, if you don’t really love yourself, you can be mean to yourself. So love your neighbor as you love yourself. I’m not Jesus, but I think he’s a cool dude. By Jennifer Smith. If you have a suggestion for My Name Is… contact her at jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com

Family Owned, Family Run

Littleton has lost an important connection to its 20th century history with the Aug. 13 death of J.D. Willis. He was 82. Willis and his wife, Joan, moved to Littleton in 1963, and he was involved in many building projects in Littleton, the Denver metro area and, later, internationally. As a partner with Eugene Sternberg and Associates, Willis was involved in design of ArapaWillis hoe Community College, Heritage High School, Bemis Library and South Suburban Ice Arena. More recently, he played a role in the conversion of the Northwoods Inn at Hudson Gardens into the Inn at Hudson Gardens, a meeting and events center. In Denver, he worked on Denver General Hospital and National Jewish Hospital Research Center. Willis was born in Hannibal, Missouri, to Ray Galen and Gladys Irene Willis and was active in Boy Scouts and sports. He continued his education at a community college in Keokuk, Iowa, where he met and married Joan in 1959 before completing his bachelor’s degree at Iowa State University in Ames. He then studied architecture under the renowned Louis I. Kahn at the University of Pennsylvania, where he earned his master’s degree in 1962. Willis

and his wife settled in Littleton in 1963. He loved Colorado, with its fly fishing, camping, hiking and mountain drives. “J.D. loved all that Colorado is and wouldn’t want to be anywhere else,” said his son Jon Willis. He also enjoyed amateur (ham) radio as a hobby. He founded Architectural Specifications Consulting Service (SCS Inc.) with another partner from the Sternberg firm and began to work nationally and internationally “as others learned of his skill in making buildings work,” Jon Willis said. Jon is now president of ASCS, following his father’s path. J.D. Willis served for 10 years on the Littleton Planning Commission between the mid-1960s and mid-1970s, for a time as chairman. He was active in Littleton Kiwanis and was president of the Arapahoe Community College Foundation. The south area transportation committee was significant to the city as it worked on a vision for the Broadway and Santa Fe corridors, and in the late 1960s it drew up a vision of the light rail line in place today. Willis was involved in lowering the railroad tracks through downtown Littleton. He served on the RTD board and RTD South Area Vision Committee. He is survived by his wife, Joan, of Littleton; son Jon of Broomfield; and half-sister Melody and half-brother Rod of Minnesota. He was preceded in death by his brother Roy. A visitation/viewing will be held from 6 to 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 20, at Littleton Church of Christ, 6495 S. Colorado Blvd. in Centennial, followed by a funeral service at 10:30 a.m. on Friday, Aug. 21, also at Littleton Church of Christ.

The 87th Western Welcome Week Festival Day went off without the proverbial hitch in downtown Littleton on Aug. 15, although one horse wasn’t so lucky. New this year, C Cross Farriers brought Riley, one of only 32 Blue Roan Percherons in the United States, to the east end of Main Street for a giant pedicure. The crew painstakingly cleaned and filed the hooves of the 17-hand horse while firing up new horseshoes for her, drawing a steady crowd of onlookers. The Grand Parade, this year themed “Birthday Bash,” was well attended, despite ultra-warm weather. Grand Marshal Maurice “Stringy” Ervin made his way down Main Street in a horse-drawn wagon with his wife, son, daughter and four grandkids.

Clark seeks to rejoin city council Former mayor wants at-large spot

‘It is vitally important that redevelopment happens in Littleton, and that it happens

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com Editor’s Note: Carol Brzeczek, former Littleton Public Schools board member, announced last week that she is running against Debbie Brinkman in District 4. She will be featured in an upcoming article. Doug Clark, former Littleton mayor, wants back on city council and is running to fill one of two open at-large seats. “Littleton is a great place to live and a great place to raise a family,” he said in a statement. “It will stay that way only by diligently protecting the neighborhoods, keeping the density low and taxes low, and respecting the character of the city and all its citizens. I am proud to have had a part of that in the past, and I hope the citizens will trust me to fulfill that role again this November.” Clark has been making a name for himself in Littleton politics for 28 years. He’s active with the Sunshine Boys, which is a group that considers itself a local government watchdog, and Citizens for Rational Development, which has been battling high-density development and urban renewal throughout the city for two years.

in a way that is compatible with existing Clark

neighborhoods and preserves the character of Littleton.’ Doug Clark, Former mayor

Clark has served three terms on council, including two as mayor. He gave up his seat in 2011 to pursue a run for Arapahoe County Commissioner, losing in the primary to fellow Republican Nancy Doty. In 1992, he worked to pass a referendum to ensure low-density development of Jackass Hill. In March of this year, he worked with CRD to pass Amendment 300, which allows citizens to vote on urban-renewal plans. “It is vitally important that redevelopment happens in Littleton, and that it happens in a way that is compatible with existing neighborhoods and preserves the character of Littleton,” he

said. “It is the job of the city council to make sure both take place. Unfortunately, the majority on the council has not been up to the task.” Clark believes that how the city has handled urban-renewal issues is detrimental to the city’s senior citizens. “I believe seniors are an important and vital part of our community,” he said. “The city should be helping seniors stay in their homes as long as possible, rather than devising incentives to get them to move out of their homes to make way for the younger generation.” Clark and his wife, Cathy, live near St. Mary’s Church. They have lived in Littleton for 26 years, raising their two grown

daughters there. Clark was raised in the Phoenix area. He attended Northern Arizona University, graduating in 1977 with a bachelor’s degree in philosophy. He began his career as an engineer’s assistant with a contact-lens manufacturer. Other work experience includes the Palo Verde Nuclear Power Plant job site, a company that made pacemakers and an avionics manufacturing company. He landed in Colorado to work with the space program at Martin Marietta, now Lockheed Martin. Clark is the seventh candidate to announce plans for the Nov. 3 election, and the third for the two at-large seats. Bruce Stahlman declined to run again, citing a need to spend more time with his family. But Councilmember Peggy Cole will try to protect her seat, with newcomer Andrea Brown also in the running. Debbie Brinkman will run again in District 4, and Carol Brzeczek has announced a challenge. Councilmember Jerry Valdes has no opposition yet, nor does Bill Hopping as he tries to protect the District 1 seat he was appointed to in April. Candidates are allowed to serve up to 12 consecutive years, so Brinkman and Cole are both eligible to serve four more years. Valdes could serve eight more years. Mayor Phil Cernanec and Mayor Pro Tem Bruce Beckman’s current terms don’t end until 2017.

New plan in store for sheriff’s building Developer working to avoid public hearing By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com In 2013, the plan to redevelop the former sheriff’s building into apartments launched an activist group, created endless hours of meetings for city officials, frustrated the owner and developer and ultimately fell to a city-council vote of 6-1. A new plan for the site, across Littleton Boulevard from the Littleton Courthouse, might avoid at least some of that. The last plan, called Broadstone, needed a rezone. But Zocalo Development is now developing a project called The Grove that won’t need approval by city council, by working within the existing zoning. City Manager Michael Penny said it’s more akin to pulling a building permit to build a patio — which only needs approval from city staff — than a rezone, which requires public hearings and council approval. The project itself is quite a bit more substantial than a patio, however. The building would be scraped and replaced with a public parking garage, a commercial gym, a restaurant, live/work units on the lower floor and 167 high-end apartments that are age-restricted to seniors. “Zocalo anticipates residents will be of higher-incomes, in their early 60s and generally will still be working,” reads the company’s project outline. “… These residents will be savvy, active and engaged, with the means, time and inclination to contribute positively to the culture and economics of downtown Littleton.” It’s similar to the 2013 plan and another one presented in 2006 by attorney Steve Anderson, who bought the property in 2003, remodeled it into modern office space and moved in. This is the third time he’s tried to sell it.

“I don’t think the building belongs here,” he said in 2013. “It needs to be something so much better than what it is.” But some people neighboring the site are vehemently opposed, as are some members of the Sunshine Boys, a group that considers itself a local government watchdog. They joined forces in 2013 and filed Citizens for Rational Development as an issues group with the city so they could raise money, and have been fighting highdensity development and urban renewal ever since, often successfully. This time they’re questioning whether the plan can be approved administratively. “Essentially the project is being built as if the rezoning had been approved, when in fact a rezoning has been denied,” they write in a position paper. While they list 10 reasons they say it should face another public process, the major one has to do with the fact that its current zoning says no more than 50 percent of the site can be for residential use, a requirement meant to encourage retail uses that contribute to the city’s general fund. Zocalo deemed the parking garage commercial to meet the requirement, saying the spaces will be leased separately from the apartments to tenants who want them, with any extras available for the public to lease. Penny notes the city defines two types of parking garages, private and commercial. Since this will be available for use by the public, that just leaves commercial, and he said that’s the city attorney’s interpretation. The definition of a commercial parking garage says it can be either paid or free. He also points out that the process to get the site plan approved works in stages. If it doesn’t meet all of the requirements of the current zoning the first time in the eyes of the directors of public works and community development, Zocalo can make adjustments and keep trying or pack up the renderings and go home at any point. “Zoning trumps all,” said Penny.

Trucks can better fight plane crash fires South Metro Fire shows off new equipment at airport

By Chris Michlewicz cmichlewicz@coloradocommunitymedia.com Firefighters now have more capability to respond to downed aircraft on and near Centennial Airport. The South Metro Fire Rescue Authority revealed the latest weapons in its arsenal during a ceremony Aug. 13 at Centennial Airport, the second-busiest general aviation hub in the country. The Stryker T-2500 and Stinger Q4 received a ceremonial “wet down” with a fire hose, a tradition to commission new equipment that dates back to the 19th century. The Stryker T-2500, also known as Red 1, adds capacity for water, equipment and personnel responding to a crashed aircraft. The Stinger Q4, or Red 2, is an allwheel-drive vehicle with maneuverability and the capability for a quick response. It can carry 400 gallons of water and quickly suppress a fire. It joins Red 3, a militarystyle Unimog that was one of few vehicles at South Metro’s disposal for aircraft disaster response. It was kept at station 44 at Lincoln Avenue and Peoria Street. All of the vehicles will be based at South Metro’s station 35, southwest of Arapahoe Road and Peoria Street and just north of the airport’s property. The fire department and Centennial Airport have a mutual-aid agreement. As South Metro Fire Chief Bob Baker pointed out, most airplane and helicopter crashes occur off airport grounds, creating a need for apparatuses with different response capabilities. Just like any special team — HAZMAT, dive rescue, wildland, technical rescue — it’s critical to be prepared. “All of that equipment is specialized, it’s expensive and we never want to use it, but if we’re called upon to use it, we want to make sure we have the necessary equipment and apparatus to take care of our people,” Baker said. Baker, who assumed the role of fire chief last fall, noted the crash of a cargo

Kai Fraley, 2, of Parker, stares in awe at a new firefighting apparatus at Centennial Airport. Photos by Chris Michlewicz plane into a Centennial neighborhood last December that killed the pilot. With jet fuel in play, a rapid and effective answer is that much more important. Baker has been with South Metro for three decades and remembers when a military helicopter crashed near Cottonwood about 25 years ago. Firefighters are trained to prepare for munitions aboard military aircraft, and the new vehicles provide the ability to make an aerial attack on the flames. A brand new Stryker T-2500 would normally cost around $1 million, but with “fiscal stewardship” in mind, South Metro found a refurbished one for $300,000, Baker said. “When we found it, we grabbed it,” he said. The combined cost of the two vehicles

was $618,000. Centennial Airport’s contribution of more than $230,000 and a state grant of $287,000 covered the bulk of the cost. Centennial Mayor Cathy Noon brought her grandchildren Lena Williams, 8, and Evie Williams, 5, to explore the new equipment, as did Mike Fronapfel, the deputy director of planning and development for Centennial Airport. His daugh-

ter, Lauren, 4, and son, Drew, 3, climbed on top of a fire truck and into the cabs of the new vehicles with looks of wonderment on their faces. The people on hand also performed a blessing on the new vehicles and watched the “wet-down” ceremony, including airport director Robert Olislagers, who said it was his first time witnessing the spectacle in his 30 years on the job.

Centennial resident Candice White has pleaded guilty to embezzling nearly $93,000 from Front Range Bank, where she was a senior vice president. “Americans do not tolerate bank officials stealing money from bank customers. It’s that simple,” U.S. Attorney John Walsh said in a statement. White admitted that from at least July 2009 through March 2011, she would routinely tell tellers she needed a cashier’s check or cash to pay a bill on a customer’s behalf. She targeted escrow and other types of accounts that often aren’t closely monitored by the account holders, hoping nobody would notice she was taking the money for her personal use. “Due to her status as a senior vice president at the bank, the tellers trusted that White was telling the truth and had the required supporting documentation for the transactions,” reads the release. Front Range Bank, which has locations in Englewood, Lakewood and Littleton, received federal Troubled Asset Relief Program funds. As a result, TARP’s special

inspector general, Christy Goldsmith Romero, assisted the FBI in the investigation. “As a senior executive at a TARP bank, the American taxpayers placed their trust in White,” said Romero. “White not only abused that trust, she also took advantage of her position within the bank to deceive her coworkers for her own personal gain.” The plea agreement calls for White to pay restitution to the bank, which has already reimbursed its clients for their losses. She was originally indicted on 37 charges of felony embezzlement by a federal grand jury in Denver on March 24. In exchange for her guilty plea, she faces only two charges of embezzlement by a bank officer or employee. White has been free on bond, but she now could face up to 30 years in federal prison and up to a $250,000 fine for each of the two counts. She is scheduled to be sentenced by Judge Raymond Moore on Nov. 3. “Candice White’s guilty plea should send a strong message to anyone considering embezzling funds from banking institutions,” said FBI Denver Special Agent in Charge Thomas Ravenelle. “The FBI will continue to work with our lawenforcement partners to protect financial institutions from those engaged in these types of schemes.”

It’s your turn; it’s your time Have you ever spoken with someone who seems to always share stories about the people they know who have accomplished something great or are always doing something fun? It happened to me the other day; all they could talk about was what other people did or who other people knew. You know how it goes, you might be talking about climbing a 14er and someone might say something like, “I have a friend who has climbed almost all of the 14ers here in Colorado.” And then you may ask them if they have ever climbed one, and they answer, “No, I have not but I hope to one day.” Or you may have met someone and a discussion around travel took place and the other person says, “I know a man who travels all the time, he was just recently in Tuscany sipping wine and eating spectacular food.” And you inquire if they travel much or if they had ever been to Italy, “No, I don’t travel, but I would love to visit Europe one day.” You get the point, right? It could be knowing someone or having a friend who has summited Mount Everest, swam with sharks, has been to every Major League Baseball stadium, played golf at Augusta National or Pebble Beach, has read the Bible cover

to cover, has written a book, has met the Dalai Lama, traveled to every continent, has been on a safari, etc., etc., etc. So when is it your turn? Your time? Many people love to live vicariously through the lives and adventures of others. Michael Norton They have a “bucket WINNING list” in their heads, or a wish list of dreams WORDS and goals, but they never take the first step toward actually fulfilling their dreams. And the dreams and goals do not have to be so grandiose such as summiting Mount Everest or going on a safari, although they certainly can be. Goals and dreams are very personal and different in size and scale for everyone. If you have a goal or a dream, there is a way to achieve it. The only person that can stop you is … you. So again, when is it your turn? When is it your time? When will you be

able to take part in a discussion about something specific and relative to one of your “bucket list” items and say, “I did that, and let me share with you my experience?” Temporary barriers like money can be overcome through proper planning and saving. Artificial barriers, self-imposed limitations such as not having enough time, fear, anxiety, or not having anyone to do things with are simply excuses that can also be overcome. You see, we only live once, so we have to ask ourselves, “When is it my turn, when is it my time to …?” You fill in the blank. How about you? Are you an unwritten book? A business waiting to be opened? A lover waiting to be loved? A destination to be explored? A first house waiting to be purchased? A dreamer or a fulfilled dream? I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail.com and when we realize that it is our turn and it is our time, it really will be a better than good week.

For writer, world is rich with irony ore

You can drink in Colorado on your 21st birthday, and not a minute before then. However, the law is sometimes broken. The minimum age to purchase tobacco in Colorado is 18. The law, as you may have noticed, is sometimes broken. You can drive legally in Colorado when you are even younger than that. In rural areas, this law is also sometimes broken, and we hear about a 9-year-old who steals his daddy’s Nova. (Did you know that the Nova didn’t go over very well in countries where the words “no va” mean “no go”?) All of this led me to wonder how old you have to be to legally use irony. I am sure that irony laws vary from state to state, just as those other laws do that I mentioned. If there are irony laws, I am sure that I broke them. I can distinctly remember telling my mother, “This tuna noodle casserole sure e tastes good,” when I was 5 or 6, when, in fact, I thought it was appalling. If you think I was being sarcastic, I wasn’t. The difference between irony and sarcasm is that the intent of irony is not to hurt anyone’s feelings. Big difference. I can be sarcastic too. I prefer irony. I keep thinking that Donald Trump is trying to be one or the other. He’s not.

y

He is expressing his opinions. I think if he were elected, David Letterman would come out of retirement. (He did, briefly, and gave a Donald Trump Top Ten List at a Steve Martin and Martin Short Craig Marshall Smith concert in San Antonio. By the QUIET Letterman has DESPERATION way, a full beard.) Trump often sounds like he is one of the speakers at a celebrity roast, but his comments aren’t intended to be witty. Celebrity roasts might be as vile as humor gets. Unless it turns you on to hear what a mediocre personality has to say about the celebrity’s sex life. It always helps if your listener knows that you are being ironic. Many times my listeners — and my readers — do not get it, and I have to explain myself, or apologize. If I have to explain what I meant, the whole thing is voided, since a lot of my irony depends upon humor. There is one thing I have learned about irony, sarcasm and humor: Know your audi-

ence. With a column like this that is not always possible. If I were writing for The Onion, I would write very differently. But I am understandably tempered by my community and by the readership. Offending or irking someone is easier than ever these days, and almost anything can trigger someone. For example, I am very suspicious of anyone who puts a dress on a Chihuahua. I am very doubtful of anyone who buys a brooch on the Home Shopping Network, owns a cat, or flavors their coffee. There is irony all around us. The trick is to recognize it. If it’s unrecognized, the speaker needs what is called a “double audience.” You will see that frequently in films. The speaker knows that his listener isn’t in on it, but the audience is. “Missippi’s literacy program shows improvement” was an actual headline. Pacific Bell had a bunch of billboards that said, “Phone out of order? Give us a call.” What’s ironic about drawing a tree on a piece of paper? Or a sign that says, “Eyes examined while you wait?” Get it? Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident. He can be reached at craigmarshallsmith@comcast.net.

Health coverage causes worry for aging America The average age of our communities is rising. This changes everything, from housing to retail offerings and especially medical care. We see hospitals expanding and medical facilities cropping up all over town. In addition to the facilities, the health-care industry continues to research new solutions for whatever ails you, from increased testing, new drug solutions and more focus on diet and exercise. These are all good things … and they are all expensive. The 2015 United States of Aging Survey, conducted by the National Association of Area Agencies on Aging, the National Council on Aging (NCOA) and United Healthcare, examines older Americans’ perspectives on aging and what can be done to better support an increasing, longer-living senior population. The top financial worries that keep older Americans up at night are increasing costs of living (28 percent) and unexpected medical expenses (24 percent). However, professionals surveyed express an even greater level of concern about unexpected medical expenses; 87 percent rank this issue as their top financial concern. Another financial concern professionals have is not having enough disposable income (84 percent). Keep in mind, your financial advisor’s job is to help you plan for the future.

Health-care costs are definitely a major concern, mainly because it increases at a higher rate than average inflation, and because it is unpredictable and often underestimated in one’s future expenses. Being aware of Patricia Kummer what resources are available is key, in FINANCIAL to staying as STRATEGIES addition healthy as possible. This includes understanding open enrollment season, which is fast approaching for persons age 64 or older, even if still working. Here is why: Medicare is available at age 65 unless you are employed by a firm with greater than 20 employees. There is a short window of when you can enroll, three months prior to your 65th birthday, your birthday month, and three months after. You do not need to apply for Social Security simultaneously. That is a separate decision. If you do not apply during this time frame, there will be a penalty imposed. You also must have no break in medical insurance coverage; therefore it is wise to

plan for this, especially in conjunction with leaving employment. Taking COBRA does not exempt you from the enrollment requirement. It is also important to understand what your options are for supplemental coverage. This is crucial since Medicare does not pay for everything. Medicare Part A is hospital insurance, Part B is medical insurance and both carry a deductible. Part C can be a combination of A and B and may also include Part D, which is prescription drug coverage. Understanding how Part C works if you choose an HMO (health maintenance organization) or a PPO (preferred provider organization) will also impact your out-ofpocket exposure. There are 10 different Medigap policies to choose from, named after the first 10 letters of the alphabet, A through N. Many retirees choose a Medicare Advantage Plan under Part C rather than dealing with the remaining alphabet soup. However, some of the other Medigap policies may be more suitable, depending on your health needs. This is a complicated subject and should be addressed on an individual basis. In order to help make the community more aware of their options, there will be two Medicare workshops at the Highlands Ranch Library Kummer continues on Page 10

Things going well at Ketring Lake City drilling into aquifer to wean off of High Line Canal

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@coloradocommunitymedia.com With a little urging from residents of the Aberdeen Village neighborhood, City Manager Michael Penny recently provided an update on the status of Ketring Lake. “The short answer to your immediate question on water for the lake is that we should have a well completed this

fall, meaning November,” he wrote in an email to the group on Aug. 14. “This well will allow us to maintain Ketring’s water level regardless of nature’s assistance.” After Denver Water took over Littleton’s service in 1970, it agreed to keep Ketring Lake full, to the extent possible, with water channeled from the High Line Canal. But considering the $1 million a year it takes to operate, junior water rights and several years of drought, Denver Water plans to repurpose the canal over the next few years. In the meantime, Littleton City Council approved $500,000 in this year’s budget to drill into an underground aquifer

to pump water into the lake. Eventually that well could be used to irrigate grass in the park, at Littleton Museum and at Bemis Library, but Penny said that’s a more complicated issue. “We have substantial ownership issues with water quantity as it relates to irrigation and will be looking for the long-term rights to use this water for irrigation,” he said. “This could take six months to several years depending upon several variables … Suffice to say we all understand the complexity of Colorado water law.” He said negotiations with owners of the water rights, including Denver Water,

S2 Colorado may ban ‘candy’ name on marijuana edibles

The Independent • The Herald 11

August 20, 2015

Edible products have been tied to accidential consumption

By Kristen Wyatt Associated Press Edible marijuana products in Colorado may soon come labeled with a red stop sign, according to a draft of new rules released Aug. 12 by state marijuana regulators. The state may also ban the word “candy” from edible pot products, even if they’re sweets such as suckers or gummy chews. The new pot symbol — an octagon stop-sign shape with the letters “THC” to indicate marijuana’s psychoactive ingredient — would have to be on individual edible items, not just labels. Liquid marijuana products would be limited to single-serve packaging — defined as 10 milligrams of THC. Regulators rejected an earlier proposal to mark edible pot with a weed-leaf symbol after a parents’ group complained the symbol would simply attract children, not dissuade them from eating the products.

The proposed rules were released as the Colorado Marijuana Enforcement Division works on new guidelines for edible marijuana, which can be baked into cookies or brownies or added to a dizzying array of items from sodas, to pasta sauces, to granolas. The agency tried and failed last year to implement a requirement that edible marijuana have a distinct look when outside of its packaging, a requirement passed by state lawmakers last year amid concerns that some people were accidentally eating food infused with marijuana. The state already banned pot manufacturers from using cartoon characters on packaging or making “look-alike” products such as candies designed to mimic common foods. But the state has seen sporadic reports of people unknowingly eating pot. Perhaps most famous was a man hospitalized after unknowingly eating pot-infused chocolate at the 2014 Denver County Fair. The new edible pot rules face a public hearing before final adoption. Marijuana regulators in Colorado have until January to implement a 2014 law requiring edible marijuana to have

a distinct look when outside its packaging. The law was passed after reports of people accidentally eating foods infused with marijuana. The agency tried but failed to come up with those rules last year after several meetings with pot manufacturers. The manufacturers complained that the law — which requires edible to be “stamped, shaped, colored or otherwise marked” that it is not for consumption by children — would be unwieldy when it comes to liquid products or anything besides hard candies or cookies. In response, the state health department last year suggested banning all edible marijuana except for lozenges or other items that could be easily stamped. The proposal was quickly withdrawn after the industry and consumers complained. The sponsor of the law requiring a distinct look for edible pot (called the stop-sign symbol) and the “candy” label ban said they are appropriate steps to address concerns that pot candies can tempt kids who don’t know it’s a product that will intoxicate them. “I don’t think that items that aren’t attractive to kids like granola and salad

dressing need to be held to the same high standard of marking, stamping, or coloring,” said Rep. Jonathan Singer, DLongmont. “I’d like to see hard and fast rules for items that are attractive to kids and exceptions for others.” Edible marijuana makers didn’t immediately reject the proposed rules — though they stressed that they believe that childproof packaging and clear labels are sufficient to keep kids out of edible pot, and that once out of the package, the manufacturers should not be responsible for how they’re stored. One cookie maker said she’d rather see the “THC” label in a circle, not a stopsign shape. “A stop sign sends the message that THC is bad. That says, ‘Stay away,’” said Julie Berliner, CEO of Sweet Grass Kitchen, which makes marijuana-infused cookies. Colorado dispensaries last year launched a “First Time 5” campaign of posters to encourage new users to take a 5-milligram half-dose of marijuana to make sure they don’t overdo it. A marijuana advocacy group has taken out billboards and magazine ads with the tagline “Start Low, Go Slow.”

Court says baker can’t cite religion Faith not seen as justification for excluding gay customers

By Ivan Moreno Associated Press A Lakewood baker who would not make a wedding cake for a same-sex couple cannot cite his Christian beliefs in refusing them service because it would lead to discrimination, the Colorado Court of Appeals ruled Aug. 13. The three-judge panel said in a 66-page ruling that Colorado’s anti-discrimination law does not prevent baker Jack Phillips from believing what he wants, but that if he wants his business open to the public, he is prohibited “from picking and choosing customers based on their sexual orientation.” The decision is the latest victory for gay couples, who have won similar cases in other states. Gay-rights supporters and religious-freedom advocates have passionately debated whether individuals can cite

their beliefs as a basis for declining to participate in a same-sex wedding ceremony. And it is bound to get more heated after the U.S. Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. That decision makes the Colorado case “all the more urgent and all the more critical,” said Nicolle Martin, one of Phillips’ attorneys. His attorneys previously said they would consider appealing up to the nation’s high court, noting that more cases are likely to arise in which businesses’ religious convictions clash with gay rights. But any appeal first would go to the Colorado Supreme Court. “Jack simply exercised the long-cherished American freedom to decline to use his artistic talents to promote a message with which he disagrees,” said another of Phillips’ attorneys, Jeremy Tedesco, with the Arizona-based Alliance Defending Freedom. “The court is wrong to deny Jack his fundamental freedoms.” Phillips, owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop, declined to make a cake for Charlie Craig and David Mullins in 2012. They were

married in Massachusetts but planned to celebrate in Colorado. Phillips has been facing fines if he kept refusing to make wedding cakes for gay couples, so his attorneys have said he stopped making them altogether. The baker has maintained that he has no problem serving gay people at his store but says that making a wedding cake for a same-sex wedding would violate his religious views. “Today is a proud day for equality and for upholding the law,” said Ria Mar, an attorney who argued the case for the American Civil Liberties Union. “In America, no one should be turned away from a shop or restaurant because of who they are or who they love.” In recent cases elsewhere, a bakery in the Portland, Oregon, area that declined to make a wedding cake for a gay couple two years ago was ordered to pay $135,000 in damages in July. Two years ago, the New Mexico Supreme Court ruled that a photographer who wouldn’t take pictures of a gay couple’s

2006 commitment ceremony violated the state’s anti-discrimination law. And in Washington state, a florist has been fighting a lawsuit filed after she refused to provide services for a gay wedding in 2013. Phillips’ case started at Colorado’s Civil Rights Commission, where Craig and Mullins filed their complaint. In December 2013, a judge for the commission ruled that Phillips discriminated against the couple and ordered him to change his store policy against making cakes for gay weddings or face fines. Phillips went to the Colorado Court of Appeals, which backed the commission’s ruling and rejected the baker’s argument that his free-speech rights were violated because the government was forcing him to do something with which he disagrees. The court said Colorado’s anti-discrimination law does not force Phillips to support a particular view, but “merely prohibits Masterpiece from discriminating against potential customers on account of their sexual orientation.”

more difficult to justify, as fewer tickets meant less money to pay ATS. ATS charged the city per passing vehicle, not per violation, averaging about $650,000 a year. Up until now it had generated some revenue for the city, but Stephens said it would likely have been a deficit this year. In addition to the actual cost was

staff time, because Littleton’s policy was for a sworn officer to review every photo. That meant 7,381 hours over the six-year life of the program. Pulling the plug on the cameras means more officers in the neighborhoods and in school zones, and available to address specific complaints, said Stephens. In June, Gov. John Hickenlooper stopped short of following in Littleton’s footsteps. He vetoed a bill that would have banned cameras throughout the state, and another measure that would have required

It takes away focus from the kids.” He went on to take over as superintendent in Englewood Public Schools, where he helped raise the district’s state accreditation rating and earned community support for a $50 million bond and a $1.5 million mill levy to build the new middle/high school campus. “We needed to rebuild the district and re-engage the community,” he said. “They were disjointed, I think. But they have awesome, diverse kids. The kids are always delightful regardless of the circumstances in which they live. … Every community has excellence in it. It’s sim-

Both had bipartisan support. “While not always popular, when used correctly, radar and red-light cameras make roads safer,” Hickenlooper said in a statement. “Unfortunately, these bills go too far.” He urged lawmakers to introduce legislation next year to limit the use of cameras to school and construction zones and high-traffic areas. He also directed the Colorado Department of Transportation to study the effectiveness of the cameras.

I’ve found broken systems, but systems can be fixed.” He left Englewood as the current chair of the Denver Area School Superintendents Council, the 2015 Colorado Superintendent of the Year and an adjunct faculty member at the University of Northern Colorado. But while in Englewood, he did garner some criticism from a group that wants to start a charter school in EPS. He says he favors school choice generally, but that particular application had shortcomings that needed to be addressed, and it’s still working its way through the system. “I’m not opposed to charter schools, and I’m not opposed to choice,” he said. “But I am an advocate of quality. In Littleton, the charters were parent-driven, not driven by outside forces.” He arrives in Littleton at a time when

This is a perfectly sized district. Honestly, this is the diamond, and I’m very honored and humbled. It’s almost a burden, because there’s so much to maintain and to make sure continues to improve. Following Scott Murphy is a challenge. … But whatever it takes, I will not let this board of education down, or this community.”

the district is still nursing its wounds from the December 2013 shooting tragedy at Arapahoe High School, and as members of an advisory committee are hoping to continue their examination into safety and mental-health systems. “Being on the inside now and trying to deeply understand, I think they did a really good job of trying to communicate with their constituents,” he said. “Maybe not with the press, because that’s a political entity in itself. It was a strategic maneuver. I don’t know if there’s ever a perfect way. They’ve done a good job since in looking at gaps and tightening up procedures.

BENEFITS OF FITTING TOGETHER

Working in tandem Hank and Alida Alberts, of Parker, took up tandem cycling not only to improve their health, but to spend more time together. It was three years ago that Hank Alberts received an email as part of a health initiative at his communications company. It included a section about tandem bikes, and because he and his wife had gotten into cycling a few years earlier, he forwarded it to her. Alida Alberts replied within 10 minutes to tell her husband that she’d found a tandem bike on Craigslist. Due to varying ability levels, they previously found themselves separated on uphills, downhills and flats when riding individual bikes. “It’s really tough to stay together. You’re always wondering who’s where, and that ruins the fun of it,” Hank Alberts said. “We got a tandem that fits, and it’s been downhill ever since.” They took it slow to start out, watching online tutorials to learn techniques for stopping, turning, mounting and dismounting, balancing and communicating. And when

AJ and Jenifer Morton compete as a couple in bodybuilding. Courtesy photo by Isaac Hinds it came to decide who got the coveted front seat, Hank Alberts got the nod because he is the stronger rider of the two. Alida Alberts admits to taking in the scenery while trusting her husband to steer them out of trouble on the multiple century rides they do each year. The 100-mile treks have instilled more cooperation, brought them closer, and even made them the focal point of a feature article in the Wall Street Journal earlier this summer. The Albertses, who traveled 2,500 miles on their tandem last year while participating in nearly 20 organized rides, share a love for cycling and an incredible level of conditioning, which is far beyond most people at the age of 60. They’ve shed pounds and built muscle since taking up their cycling habit. “Between the two of us, we’ve lost over 100 pounds,” Alida Alberts said. There to pump you up Jenifer and AJ Morton had similar motivations for training together as bodybuilders. The Douglas County couple wanted to spend more time together, and Jenifer Morton developed a love for the sport from watching her

then-boyfriend just as he was starting out. After having her fifth child in January 2013, Jenifer Morton wanted to shake off the baby weight and decided to join AJ in his gym regimen. She admitted she was “a little bit stubborn about him pushing me” in the beginning because she didn’t trust him to know her limitations. By that summer, however, she was seeing changes in her body that boosted her confidence and made her a believer in her husband’s guidance. “I wasn’t sure I could do it, but then I realized I was putting in the same work,” she said. “I was doing what he was doing and started to think maybe it was possible for me to do a show.” In November, 11 months after having a baby, Jenifer and AJ Morton — ages 33 and 38, respectively — were on stage together in a mixed-pairs bodybuilding competition. They took the top prize and have since competed in two additional shows. Self-assurance and poise came with that newfound belief, and much of it was rooted in having a partner both push her and cheer her on. “If I could compete with him, then it wasn’t as scary,” said Jenifer Morton, who went on to become a personal trainer so she could help others.

Parker Garage doesn’t let food out of its sight Parker Garage is launching one of the largest farm-to-table operations in Colorado. In a partnership with Lone Star Ranch, located in nearby Elizabeth, Parker Garage is bringing fresh, local ingredients direct from ranch to restaurant with awardwinning executive chef Duy Pham residing on the 1,000-acre ranch to help plant, grow and source ingredients for the restaurant. The Parker Garage menu will reflect the local farm cuisine, featuring as many fresh, seasonal ingredients as available and incorporating Pham’s 25-year, French-inspired culinary expertise. In addition to free-range cattle, the team is raising chickens and honeybees, fresh herbs for the kitchen and the bar, with plans to build a large greenhouse and add goats, ducks and quail to the ranch. “Our new farm-to-table experience will allow us to bring the best local ingredients to our customers and infuse Chef Pham’s passion for crafting an intention-based menu with hand-selected seasonal ingredients brilliantly prepared,” said Brent Walker, operating owner of Parker Garage. “The partnership with Lone Star Ranch is a perfect match based on our culinary point of view and desire to bring fresh, authentic food and flavors to the dining experience.” Parker Garage was recently visited by the Food Network for an episode of “Carnival Cravings” airing Aug. 26, in which Pham prepares a six-pound tomahawk rib for host Anthony Anderson. For the month of August, Parker Garage will feature a singleserving bone-in short rib in celebration of the Food Network episode featuring Pham’s twist on the tomahawk rib. Limited quantities of the full six-pound tomahawk rib will be available for special order. The full Parker Garage menu features a selection of local meats, seafood and vegetarian entrees, many of which are

prepared sous-vide (French for “under vacuum”) as part of Pham’s French cooking technique. In addition, his culinary team delivers soups and sauces made from scratch, daily lunch and dinner selections from farmfresh ingredients, Penny Parker with all butchering MILE HIGH done in house. The menu rotates LIFE seasonally with daily features to reflect fresh sustainable ingredients sourced from the ranch and other select purveyors. Lunch and dinner are served seven days a week with Sunday brunch and a personalized chef’s table dining experience. The restaurant also features a wide selection of artisanal cocktails, craft beer and a full wine list. Both the restaurant and Lone Star Ranch are available for private events. Parker Garage is located in the original “Parker Garage” building on Mainstreet built in 1916, which served as the Warhorse Inn restaurant for 30 years. After purchasing the building to launch Parker Garage, the owner/operator team repurposed the historic building, including many of the original materials.

BSide shuts doors The BSide fried chicken place at 1336 E. 17th Ave. in Uptown has closed. BSide, which some said housed Denver’s best fried chicken (I didn’t agree), owned by Justin Lloyd, was a sister spot to the sort of seedy Star Bar in the Ballpark neighborhood. CycleBar coming to Landmark CycleBar will open its first location in Colorado at The Landmark in Greenwood Village next year. A boutique indoor cycling studio, CycleBar unites riders of all ages and fitness levels by creating an unparalleled multi-sensor journey. CycleBar at The Landmark will be located at the base of the Landmark East residential tower across the lobby from the residential sales office. “We really wanted to bring another boutique fitness concept to The Landmark and CycleBar is the perfect fit,” said Amy Cara, the partner at East West Partners overseeing The Landmark development. “While we’re known as a dining and entertainment destination, we believe that CycleBar will contribute to fitness becoming a defining element of the community as well.” CycleBar is being brought to The Landmark by entrepreneurs Patrick and Anna Walsh and will be the first of three CycleBar franchises they plan to open in the Denver area. The 3,300-square-foot CycleBar will be modeled after the corporate-owned location in Cincinnati, which opened in November 2014, featuring a modern and clean aesthetic. The signature CycleTheatre will have a fully controlled lighting system, two high-definition 80-inch screens and

55 Schwinn AC Pro Carbon Blue indoor bicycles. The cycles are top of the line and belt-driven, providing a smoother ride. Each bike will have a state-of-the-art computer system that tracks the power each rider produces, which is stored in a user profile and provided to the rider after each ride, so that individuals can track their progress over time.

Italian Baroque art comes to Denver ‘Castiglione: Lost Genius’ exhibit shares work from 17th century

IF YOU GO “Castiglione: Lost Genius” is in the Gallagher Family Gallery on the first floor of the Hamilton Building, Denver Art Museum, on 13th Avenue, between Broadway and Bannock Street. It is included in general admission. Information: denverartmuseum.org.

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com When Denver Art Museum’s Gates Foundation curator of painting and sculpture, Timothy Standring, was a graduate student, he became fascinated with Italian painter/draftsman Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione — an interest that led to his doctoral thesis and a portion of the past 30 years following in Castiglione’s footsteps across Italy. He has been involved in archival studies and the study of quantities of paintings and prints produced by this artist from Genoa, labeled “Lost Genius.” The “Castiglione: Lost Genius” exhibit was developed with Martin Clayton, head of prints and drawings, Royal Collection Trust, and shown in London and Scotland. Standring expressed appreciation to Queen Elizabeth II for loaning this collection to the Denver Art Museum. It is known that Castiglione started in Genoa — a very sophisticated city in the 17th century — with travelers and traders from many lands passing through. He was well known in Genoa, but not selling enough art. Following a dispute in which he destroyed a canvas he had painted for a patron who refused to pay, he went to Rome, in disguise, to seek his fortune. Rome, with a population of about 100,000, was the center of the art world (where there was a great deal of competition) and he looked at works by Titian, Rembrandt, Poussin, Bernini. Something happened in Rome and he returned to Genoa, where he began to have some success. In the course of his life in Italy, he also lived in Mantua, where he worked at the Gonzaga court, Parma and finally Venice. Clayton emphasized that these drawings, done on paper with oil paint and a boar bristle brush, were finished products — not casual sketches for a painting. They were collected by artists and others in his time.

Courtesy photo “Patrons in Rome wanted mythology and grand subjects,” Standring said in a press preview he shared with British co-curator Martin Clayton, with whom Standring has worked for six years. They spoke of long hours in the print room, going through each drawing in that collection and deciding if it was indeed Castiglione’s work — or that of an artist in his workshop — or possibly by his brother. “There are some we could not agree on and they are not in this show,” Clayton said. Prior to this exhibition, Castiglione’s works were known mainly by specialists in the field. The two have co-authored a catalog that accompanies the show. “Castiglione: Lost Genius” includes

about 90 drawings, etchings and monotypes, the first exhibit of his work in about 40 years and the only one to feature these treasures from the Royal Collection. Clayton commented that “it is hard to construct a chronology of a career — some monotypes are dated.” Castiglione invented the monotype in the 1640s, but it wasn’t adopted by other artists until the Impressionists in the late 19th century. “There are about 13 extant — we have five,” Standring said. Works in the Royal Collection were acquired about 100 years after Castiglione’s death by King George III. “This is close to one third of known surviving works. Most are in museums,” Standring said. “There is

• The Royal Collection Trust, a department of the Royal Household, is responsible for the care of what is among the largest and most important art collections in the world — the last great royal art collection to remain intact. • Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione, a self-proclaimed genius, is an almost-forgotten master of the Italian Baroque. • Castiglione’s drawings on paper were made with a boar’s bristle brush and oil paint, with linseed oil and turpentine. • The monotype he invented allowed him to smear ink on a plate and draw with a stick to remove portions of the ink into an image. He could pull one print only — and perhaps a “ghost” second print.

no complete catalog.” The presumed self-portrait of Castiglione is dominated by intense eyes, which may lend understanding to Standring’s account of court records he found in 1995 “that led to tales of murder, fraud and thievery.” However, he hopes visitors to this exhibit will focus on the artist’s great skills — his “fluidity, verve, passion,” instead of his temperament.

‘Los Tres’ back in show with ties to Biennial

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com One of the first exhibits in 1991 at the newly renovated Curtis Arts and Humanities Center — once an early brick schoolhouse — was “Los Tres,” featuring three Hispanic artists: Carlos Fresquez, Tony Ortega and Carlos Santisevan. Each has gone on to develop a distinctive style and to teach many others about Hispanic art and heritage. They have come together again at Curtis with a bright, colorful show — “Los Tres Revisited — NOW” — that traces their development and displays what they are creating now. (NOW is the theme of the 2015 Biennial de las Americas.) The three artists visited with old and new friends on Aug. “Los Tres Revisited-NOW” is 8 at the center’s exhibited at the Curtis Arts and opening recepHumanities Center, 2349 E. Ortion, and the show chard Road, Greenwood Village, will run through through Sept. 8. Gallery hours: Sept. 8. All three 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays have exhibited through Fridays.

Carlos Fresquez was born in Denver and studied at Metropolitan State (bachelor’s) and University of Colorado-Boulder (MFA). He is an associate professor at Metro and area coordinator of painting. He has exhibited in more than 30 states and 10 different countries as well as in touring exhibitions. He has lectured widely about Chicano art history. His large “City Blues” hangs just inside the entrance to the left and commands the room. Other paintings are mixed through the gallery. Tony Ortega was born in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and lives in Denver, where he is chair and associate professor of drawing and printmaking at Regis University. He received bachelor’s and MFA degrees from CU-Boulder and exhibits his work across the U.S. and in Latin America.

As an expressionist, I use distortion and exaggeration for emotional effect …. My artwork of common everyday life incorporates elements of magical realism …” (It also incorporates a sense of humor.) “I offer a multifaceted fiction that incorporates the traditions, history and culture of Latinos.” Colorful paintings of individual figures and groups appear throughout the show. He deliberately leaves faces blank. Carlos Santistevan was born in Denver and started woodcarving at age 6. He graduated from Antioch College and received a master’s degree in education administration from CU-Denver and has been involved in social service organizations as well as actively producing intricately carved retablos and bultos and metal sculptures and teaching others at the Denver Art Museum. His “Santa Nino de Atocha” is in the collection of the Smithsonian Institution. At Curtis there are several large pieces: “En Mi Jardin” includes chickens at the feet of the holy figure that peck when one pulls a lever. It and “Nuestra Senora de Delores” are carved from a combination of aspen, juniper and pine. Mixed among the paintings and carvings are a number of three-dimensional works that seem to spin off from Hispanic-style altars. Take time to look closely and enjoy the details.

There also will be live entertainment provided by two Englewood High School musical groups. The auctions help raise money for EEF projects. While items are still being donated for the live and silent auctions, some of the items already received include a signed John Elway football, framed art, gift baskets and deluxe handknitted scarfs. There is also a year’s supply of liter bottles of beer called growlers from The Brew on Broadway. For more information or to purchase tickets, call the foundation office at 303806-2042 or visit the website at www. englewoodschools.net/domain/188. “This is the 13th year the foundation has held a fundraiser, and this is the second year we have held it at Brew on Broadway,” said Karen Miller, foundation president. “It was a great event last year, and we raised $16,000, the most a foundation fall fling event has ever raised.” She said the money from the fundraiser and other sources such as private donations made it a record year for foundation’s two major projects, providing scholarships to students and creativity grants to teachers. “We were able to award $28,000 in scholarships,” she said. “The foundation awarded $24,000 in scholarships to Englewood High School and Colorado’s Finest High School of Choice graduates. The foundation also awarded about $10,000 to cover the costs for several students to attend special music camps or programs.” Another major Englewood Education

‘This is the 13th year the foundation has held a fundraiser, and this is the second year we have held it at Brew on Broadway’ Karen Miller, President of the Englewood Education Foundation Foundation project is awarding creativity grants. Teachers from any Englewood school can apply for a creativity grant to provide full or partial funding for projects that aren’t budget items. This year, the foundation also awarded $14,000 for 10 creativity grants. Some of the programs receiving creativity grants in recent years include a joint high school-middle school rocket club and a program to help Spanishspeaking students and parents build better English language skills. One of the projects selected for continued funding again this year Strings Attached, the after-school instrumental group lessons in violin, cello, guitar and a number of other instruments. Strings Attached was established as a pilot program at the beginning of the 2002-03 school year and marked the first time in about two decades that Englewood elementary school students have had the opportunity to take beginning music lessons through the schools. The Englewood Education Foundation was created in 1989 by a group of supporters seeking ways to materially help Englewood schools. The foundation was created to provide a way to raise donations of money and materials to support school programs not funded through the district budget.

The festival is a fast-growing concept across the country, according to manager Jim Delutes, who also runs the Memorial Day Downtown Art Show. Artists may have older inventory that had been in a higher price range and they sell it here for under $100 — plus they create new items in that lower-priced category for this show.

Decades-old modernist homes are topic of talks

By Sonya Ellingboe sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com The Englewood Historic Preservation Society presents a program that will interest area architectural history buffs. Diane Wray Tomasso will speak twice on Aug. 24, at 2:30 p.m. at the Englewood Public Library, 1000 Englewood Parkway, and a 6:30 p.m. evening talk at Brews on Broadway, 3445 S. Broadway, Englewood. Tomaso, an independent historic preservation consultant, is co-author, with Michael Paglia, of “The Mid-Century House in Denver” and is author of the survey of Arapahoe Acres that brought the neighborhood a designation as a National Historic Register Landmark — the first modernist neighborhood to receive designation. (She also wrote the survey for Littleton’s Arapaho Hills, which was named to the National Historic Register in 2012.) She will speak about Arapahoe Acres and its development on Aug. 24 and will lead a walking tour of the neighborhood on Sept. 20 for the preservation society. The modernist subdivision was built in Englewood by Edward Hawkins after World War II to meet the housing needs of returning servicemen and their families. He purchased 30 acres in Englewood in 1949 for $5,250 and developed homes in

PART 2 OF 3

Talented keepers give teams a shot SOCCER TEAMS AT A GLANCE Arapahoe Warriors COACH - Mark Hampshire

2014 RECORD - 10-6-0 (5-2-0) LEAGUE - Centennial PLAYERS TO WATCH - James Conley, Sr., GK; Wilmer Ramirez, Sr., F; Dylan Peppelaar, Sr., MF; Evan Bunch, Jr., D; Sam Norman, Sr., D; Max Gueller, Sr., MF.

Goalkeeper was a position that Arapahoe senior James Conley, an All-Centennial League selection in 2014, always wanted to play. Courtesy photo

High school soccer squads put a lot of faith in the player guarding the goal By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Goalkeeper has evolved into a more dynamic position in today’s soccer. “The new modern goalkeeping — and I was a goalkeeper — the position has changed in the 20 years since I played,” said Adam Buseck, Heritage boys soccer coach. “It’s more athletic. You have to be able to use your feet and come farther out of the goal and be more a member of the team versus standing back there stopping shots. “For goalkeeping, you look for a lot of intangibles, things like being courageous, being calm under pressure, being able to deal with that pressure, somebody that is confident because there are a lot of decisions to make with the ball being played through or cross. One of the physical qualities you need is to have somebody that moves around.” Ralston Valley coach Kyle Kazemi echoed Buseck’s thoughts about how the responsibilities of a keeper have advanced.

“It’s very different,” said Kazemi. “You have to have someone who can play at their feet. You don’t see a kid anymore like that big bull of a kid who will just pick up the ball and knock it 80 yards down the field. They have to be a great shot stopper but they have to be able to keep it for you.” So what goes into making a stellar stopper in the modern game? Ponderosa coach Jim Engels said the development of a good keeper starts at an early age with plenty of training. “It just takes a lot of goalkeeper training at a young age,” he said. “It takes a lot of training at camps, one-on-one training with goalkeeper coaches. Goalkeepers have to have some athletic ability and some height helps. And you need leadership out of them for sure.” Having a strong feel for the game and all positions on the pitch is crucial, Buseck said. “You want a leader and somebody that is cerebral, who can see the field and understands the game and articulates that to his teammates,” Buseck said. The Heritage coach has a versatile keeper in junior Jack Schulze, who split time last season in goal and also played basketball and lacrosse. Schulze, who has a 0.89 prep career

goals against average, plays some as a defender during club soccer. Schulze has played soccer since age 4. He enjoyed playing multiple positions, before focusing on keeper when he was 11. “Playing in the field definitely got my agility up,” Schulze said. “Just knowing how defenders feel about what they’re doing and how I can help them. I can tell them what to do because I’ve played the position before.” Arapahoe senior keeper James Conley was an All-Centennial League selection last season with a 1.3 goalsagainst average and 8.9 saves a game. He said he started out as a quiet freshman but learned over the years how important it is to communicate with other players. There’s something special about playing the position, he said, and he wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. “Goalkeeper is kind of a unique thing,” he said, “and I’ve always felt such a love for that position.” With great passion comes great responsibility. Keepers know all eyes are on them when a shot is kicked their way. “The pressure of being a goalie is knowing that if everything fails, you’re the last person to be there,” Schulze said. “Then it’s all on you. If you fail, then the whole team looks at you.”

2015 OUTLOOK - Warriors were a young squad in 2014 but have a strong group of players returning. “We are looking forward to the potential of a very talent core of returning players,” said Hampshire. “We will be competitive, but to be successful in our league we must do so as a team.” Cherry Creek Bruins COACH -Marclo Curi

2014 RECORD - 9-4-4 (4-2-1) LEAGUE - Centennial PLAYERS TO WATCH - Larson Hanlin, Jr. MF; Garrett Brown, Sr., G; Armand Akbarzaheh,Sr., F (9 goals, 20 points); Isaiah Moore, Sr., F; Peter Williams, Jr., D. 2015 OUTLOOK - Seven starters are back from the 2014 season and three talented freshmen could make the starting lineup. Hanlin is the third brother to serve as team captain in the past six years. Jacob and Karsten Hanlin play at Washington and Denver University, respectively.

For many, two hands are better than one Doubling up on a backhanded return is today’s power play in tennis By Jim Benton jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Take a glance at a typical high school tennis match, and it quickly becomes evident the one-handed backhand is a disappearing stroke. The two-handed backhand is commonly used and is more popular because players can generate more power on groundstrokes and hit shots in a variety of directions. “I had one player in eight years that could hit a one-handed backhand,” said Valor Christian boys coach Bill Epping. “The kids are taught early on to hit with two hands since they aren’t strong enough to hit with one.” Mountain Vista, however, has two players this year who hit a one-handed backhand in juniors Ben Antonsen and Ian Seetors. “The one-handed backhand does give you a better reach to the ball,” said Mountain Vista coach Jim Flanigan. “However, it does make it so at the point of contact you have to be more precise. That’s why people switch to the two-hander. “It’s a preference. The thing about the twohander is people can generate more spin probably and things like that. You can also be later at the point of contact and make up for it with your extra hand. That’s the advantage

of a two-hander.” Seetors, who has played many sports and started playing tennis three years ago, said he’s tried both strokes, but the one-handed return feels better to him. “I looked at the two-hander and that had more power, but if you have placement and versatility with the one-handed, why would you need the two-hander?” he said. Cherry Creek coach Art Quinn had one player who graduated off last year’s team who employed a one-handed backhand but no players this season. “The prevailing trend if you took the top 100 players in the world, you are going to get about 75 out of a 100 guys with two-handed backhands,” Quinn said. “The main benefits of the two-hander would be more options and more options of strength.” Juniors Tom Hudson and Sam Hoelscher of D’Evelyn were state singles qualifiers last season. Both players gravitate to two-handed backhand shots but do hit one-handed backhanded slices once in a while. “I generally hit more two-handers because it’s more stable and you can get more control,” said Hudson. “The one-hander is a little bit better if you are on the run and you reach out and hit a one-hander. You can reach a lot farther with one hand.” Hoelscher attempts one-handed backhand shots but nothing “real serious.” “I just like my left hand for extra support,” he said. “I guess that’s the only reason. I don’t see many players hitting one-handed backhands.”

Serving the greater good Volleyball teams benefit when players come up aces

A VARIETY OF SERVES

It’s often been stated that the serve is one volleyball skill in which the player has complete control. High school girls usually use float serves, topspin serves and jump serves, and teams can benefit if players have good command of these deliveries. “The serve is the most underused weapon in volleyball,” said Rob Graham, coach of Parker’s Ponderosa High School, the 2014 Continental League champion and Class 4A state finalist. “Most coaches will spend time and train offense and defense … but they don’t put their time into not only serving, but telling girls where to serve it. The importance of a good server is huge because when you have a girl that can serve short and deep, can serve a topspin and a floater, then we can do whatever that will stretch the other team. “We make all of our kids jump serve. We think serving is that important. You can score so many more points than most people believe. It’s the quickest and easiest way to score a point. Serve a ball, get an ace and you didn’t have to do anything.” Jill Fitzpatrick said good serves helps her team remain competitive. She is the coach for The Academy, a Class 3A charter school in Westminster. “The most important battle in volleyball is the serve-serve-receive game,” she

JUMP SERVE — This serve utilizes a high toss that should be several feet in front of the server. The servers use more of an attack approach, jumping and then striking the ball in the air. The extra motion allows the server to put more power on the ball, and this can make it a hard serve to handle. The drawback is the extra motion can force a higher incidence of errors. Most jump serves have topspin, but it’s possible to jump-serve a floater.

She has an effective, powerful jump-float serve. “It’s taken me three or four years to become the server I am,” said the 5-foot-6 Buis. “Having a good service game helps the team out. I like to go deep. ... I don’t feel any pressure. I just go back, calm myself down and tell myself to get the ball in play and go from there.”

TOPSPIN — The wrist is snapped forward, as when throwing, when making contact with the volleyball. This puts spin on the ball. This serve has a more predictable movement but can be hard to handle because of its quick speed.

Member Spotlight: Arapahoe Libraries District

LEAGUE - Centennial

FLOATER — This serve does not spin and is struck with a solid wrist. The serve moves in unpredictable ways, making it difficult to pass. A float serve catches the air and can move unexpectedly to the right or left.

said. “No matter what level you play, from beginners all the way to Olympians, you must win that battle to come out on top. At times, we play teams that are taller or run a quick offense, but we are able to remain competitive because our serving game is so strong.” A player who is effective with a variety of serves gives a coach options. “I like the floater,” said Ponderosa senior Camille Smith. “It is easier than the topspin. Up-close serves I’m not very good at, but the deep ones I’m OK.” Alexa Buis, a senior at The Academy, set a school record and led Class 3A with 77

Pirates volleyball will have veteran lineup Englewood’s returning players bring welcome strength to team

FARMERS’ MARKET 8

By Tom Munds tmunds@coloradocommunitymedia.com Coach Kristal Kostiew expects this to be another record season for the Englewood High School volleyball team. “Only two members of last year’s varsity graduated, so we are a veteran team going into the season,” she said as she prepared for practice Aug. 12. “About the only new player on the team is a sophomore who is our setter.” The volleyball program has grown, and this season the Pirates have developed schedules for Englewood freshman, sophomore, junior varsity and varsity teams. The players started practice Aug. 10 with the first varsity game of the year scheduled Aug. 27 at home against Centaurus. They then travel to Arvada on Sept. 1 and St. Mary’s Academy Sept. 8 before returning home Sept. 10 against Falcon. The coach said one of the team’s strength this season should be the attack. “We have some tall girls and girls with good vertical jumps, so this should be the best hitting and blocking team we have had since I started coaching here,” Kostiew said. “While hitting is important, you can’t win volleyball games unless you play good defense, and we should be good defensively as well.” She said two seniors, Ty Lucas and Ada Silfast, will be the team captains and will be among the team leaders. Players prepared for the coming season by coaching a youth camp in mid-July. She said 55 young athletes attended the camp. “The project raised some money for our program,” the coach said. “The funds from the camp paid for the core of our team to attend a skills camp at Regis University to help them develop their skills during the summer.” The coach said players are assessed on their skills each practice, and so far this

Addi Stilfast prepares to set the ball to an Englewood High School volleyball teammate. Stilfast and Ty Lucas will be team captains this season. Photo by Tom Munds season, Reighan Kirklin has been the high individual scorer every day. “Reighan is a talented player,” Kostiew said. “She played club volleyball the last couple years and developed great skills. She can play up front, in the middle and defense. She will help our team.” Kirklin said she has been playing volleyball since she was about 3 years old. “I like everything about the game because everything about the game is fun,” she said. “I like the speed of play, the quickness of the action and the high level of competition. I guess I like the high level of competition because I am a very competitive person.” The senior said she likes to play a position where she gets the opportunity to hit the ball over the net and drive it to the floor. “I am not real tall but I jump well, so I can get up in the air to drive the ball hard,” she said. “There are a lot of things to consider before you hit the ball, like how the defense is set up and is there an open spot on the court. I guess because I have played a lot of volleyball, I don’t consider all the individual things, I just automatically feel where is the right spot to hit the ball.”

which Amendment Aurora agreed to make annual payments to Otero County concerning Aurora’s Rocky Ford Ditch shares. During this diligence period, Aurora made payments of over $214,000. 4.3.2.5. Pueblo Reservoir Storage: During this diligence period, Aurora paid the Bureau of Reclamation over $3,118,000 for use of Pueblo Reservoir. 4.3.2.6. Intergovernmental Agreement with SECWCD: On October 3, 2003, Aurora entered into an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Southeastern Colorado Water Conservancy District (“SECWCD”), replacing an agreement between the parties dated December 7, 2001. Aurora’s use of Fryingpan-Arkansas facilities for certain water rights is discussed under this IGA. During this diligence period, Aurora made payments of approximately $932,000 to SECWCD under this IGA. 4.3.2.7. Intergovernmental Agreement with LAVWCD: Pursuant to an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Lower Arkansas Valley Water Conservation District (“LAVWCD”), Aurora paid approximately $1,000,000 to LAVWCD for the identification and implementation of infrastructure improvements, research, and investigations designed to assist in the permitting or implementation of water leasing programs in the Lower Arkansas Valley, as well as remediation and restoration efforts in the Fountain Creek Corridor. 4.3.2.8. Agreements for Use of the Holbrook System Facilities: On March 1, 2005, Aurora entered into two agreements pertaining to the use of the diversion, conveyance and storage facilities of the Holbrook Mutual Irrigating Company (“Holbrook”). Aurora and Holbrook extended this agreement on February 2, 2010. These agreements implement a program to recapture and store yield from foregone diversions of senior water rights. Aurora completed structural modifications to the Holbrook system facilities and filed a Substitute Water Supply Plan necessary to implement the program. Further, Aurora initiated a study to examine enlargement of the Holbrook Reservoir to further facilitate operations. During this diligence period, Aurora made payments of approximately $184,000 to Holbrook under this agreement. 4.3.2.9. Gravel Pit Storage: Aurora is pursuing gravel pit storage options on the Arkansas River downstream from Pueblo Reservoir to allow storage of its water rights for eventual exchange to Pueblo Reservoir. These stored rights will facilitate Aurora’s Arkansas River Basin operation. During this diligence period, Aurora spent over $100,000 toward this effort. 4.3.3. Colorado River Basin: 4.3.3.1. During this diligence period, Aurora and the City of Colorado Springs negotiated with Objectors in Case No. 95CW272(A), Water Division 5, and entered into Stipulations with many of the Objectors in that case, which adjudicated changes of water rights and augmentation plans and exchanges involving the Homestake water rights. A decree was granted in this matter on March 16, 2011. 4.3.3.2. Homestake Project: Work was done on the Homestake Diversion Channel to reduce erosion, including riprap and installation of a new roadway culvert. Additionally, Homestake Reservoir underwent resurfacing and improvement. Once water is transported over the continental divide through the Otero Pump Station and Homestake Pipeline, it is then transported to Spinney Mountain Reservoir in the South Platte Basin. 4.3.3.3. During this diligence period, Aurora prosecuted Case No. 2009CW17, Water Division 5. On October 10, 2010, the Division 5 Water Court entered a decree confirming diligence and continuing in effect the conditional water rights originally decreed in Case No. 98CW270, which comprise part of the Homestake Project. 4.3.3.4. On June 21, 2004, the City of Aurora entered into an additional Water Exchange Agreement with the Eagle Park Reservoir Company, the Colorado River Water Conservation District, the Eagle River Water and Sanitation District, the Upper Eagle Regional Water Authority, and Vail Associates, Inc. to supplement a 1998 Water Exchange Agreement. This agreement affects operations of the Homestake water rights and deliveries of reusable water to Aurora. On January 5, 2010, the City of Aurora entered into a Consolidated Water Exchange Agreement to supplement and merge and consolidate the 1998 and 2004 Agreements. 4.3.3.5. During this diligence period, Aurora has negotiated and executed a Recovery Action Plan Participation Agreement with the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District, and a Ruedi Insurance Water Cost Participation Agreement with the City and County of Denver. The purpose of these agreements is to mitigate the impacts of transmountain diversions to Colorado’s front range in order to support the Recovery Implementation Program for Endangered Fish Species in the Upper Colorado River Basin. 4.3.4. Protection Efforts: During this diligence period, Aurora made expenditures in excess of $240,000 for legal services for participation in Water Divisions 2 and 5 cases to protect the rights and interests of Aurora with regard to its water supply system, including the subject conditional water rights. 5. Claims to make absolute: 5.1. Name of Water Right: Strontia Springs Dam and Reservoir Diversion System. 5.2. Date of application to beneficial use: May 16, 2015. 5.3. Amount: A rate of 225 cfs and a volume of 474 acre-feet, absolute. 5.4. Type of use: Water diverted pursuant to the subject conditional water rights was and will be used by Aurora within any area capable of being served by these diversion and storage points.

Pursuant to C.R.S. § 37-92301(4)(d), Applicant claims the subject conditional water rights as absolute for all of the above-described types of use. 5.5.

Mountain bike series wraps up Race the MAC in Castle Rock ends series with fifth event By Shanna Fortier sfortier@coloradocommunitymedia.com Racers packed the Miller Activities Center — or MAC — in Castle Rock the evening of Aug. 12 as the fifth and final event in the Race the MAC mountain bike series took to the trail. Organizer Kyle Sipes said he couldn’t be happier with the inaugural season’s success. “This kind of racing is built for everyone,” he said, as racers began riding their bikes in from the parking lot. “The course is generous enough for beginners — we have some youth as young as 8 years

old coming out — all the way to ones that compete at a high level at 17. It’s a grassroots racing series, so it’s meant for everybody.” But the course was by no means easy. It stretched approximately 6.2 miles with a little more than 700 feet of climbing. Classes at the series ranged from open pro to youth, and the Aug. 12 event also featured a push bike race for children who can’t pedal yet. Moving forward, Sipes hopes to grow the series. “In future years, when the amphitheater is done, we’ll be able to utilize that and incorporate concerts,” he said. “This is an adventure playground for everybody, and so that’s why we wanted to harness in a mountain bike race, because it’s got the perfect backdrop.”

Justin Paulsen, of Littleton, finished the sport class race sixth overall and first in his age division. Photos by Shanna Fortier
